The reopening of the popular splash pad at Whispering Pines Park in Inver-ness was short-lived.

After city officials closed the park due to dangers from the coronavirus two months ago, the city’s parks department staff on June 6 opened the doors to the popular summer attraction for children.

Less than a week later — June 12 — the commercial-sized pump broke and along with it the system’s fuse and elec-trical system.

“We hope to have it back in operation by June 27,” said Inverness City Man-ager Eric Williams.

The city will have a replacement pump within a day or two, Williams said, but the custom-made electrical panel is on order and will take time to build.

He said municipalities typically don’t have replacement parts such as these on hand. The electrical panel/breaker box is unique to this splash pad design and isn’t available off the shelf, Williams said.

The problem started with the pump and when it stopped working it created electrical problems, which permanently damaged the breaker panel and electri-cal breakers, he said.

“Most people are pretty understand-ing about the circumstances (regarding) this,” he said. “Things happen.”

The single pump served the entire splash pad. The splash pad is part of the 290-acre park complex that includes swimming pool, walking and bicycle paths, tennis courts, picnic tables, and ball fields at 1700 Forest Drive, Inver-ness. The pool is not effected by the bro-ken pump and electrical panel.

What is a Universal Primary?Special to the Chronicle

There will be four Universal Primary Contests (UPC) on the Aug. 18, 2020 Primary Election. It is very important that voters understand what that means and why there is a Universal Primary.

The 1998 Referendum No. 11 placed on the ballot by the Flor-ida Constitution Revision Com-mission passed by a measure of two to one in favor. This meant that going forward, if a race on the ballot would be decided in

the primary election and there would be no general election for this race, then all voters, regard-less of party affiliation, would have an opportunity to vote in this election.

On the Citrus County Primary Ballot the four races where all the candidates are Republican are County Commission District 3, County Commission District 5, Superintendent of Schools and Supervisor of Elections.

The winners of these races will become our next District 3 and 5 County Commissioners,

Superintendent of Schools and Supervisor of Elections. In the races for Sheriff and Property Appraiser, only Republicans will be voting in the primary because there are no party af-filiation candidates for both offices and therefore the win-ner will be determined in the General Election.

The nonpartisan District 2 School Board race and the Cir-cuit Court Judge race will be on all ballots.

The last day for voters to register to vote or change their

political party is Monday, July 20, 2020.

Registering to vote or chang-ing party may be done online at www.votecitrus.com.

Registration forms are avail-able online, at the public li-braries, government offices and the Supervisor of Elections Office at 1500 N. Meadowcrest Blvd. Crystal River.

Call the office at 352-564-7120 to request a form be sent to you. Voter registration forms are available in English and Spanish.

TALLAHASSEE — Florida reported nearly 3,500 more new cases of the coronavirus on Sunday, a dip from the record-breaking numbers of recent days, as public health officials reissued advisories urging social distancing and some businesses reevaluate their decisions to reopen for business.

Some also had to rethink their Father’s Day brunch plans because of health concerns.

The latest number was a drop from the record high of 4,000 new cases reported the day before.

To date, Florida has now had more than 97,000 Flo-ridians infected with COVID-19. The number of deaths has now eclipsed 3,160, including the 17 additional deaths announced by health officials on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the rate of new infections continued to remain high, with nearly 12% of recent tests coming back from laboratories as positive.

Much of the state’s new infections continued to be concentrated in the state’s population centers in South Florida.

On Saturday, Gov. Ron DeSantis ordered the Health Department to reissue advisories urging Floridians to consider wearing masks to help keep the virus from spreading and to refrain from attending gather-ings of more than 50 people.

Despite the rise in new infections, the governor has not signaled any possibility of retreat from reopening the state after three months of closures that have damaged the economy, kept hundreds of thousands of people from their jobs and disrupted the day-to-day lives of Floridians.

Some businesses have delayed plans to reopen, while others have reclosed because of jitters over the rising number of new cases or because of employees becoming infected by COVID-19.

During a Saturday news conference, DeSantis at-tempted to quell concerns about the spikes in new cases. Despite the high number of new infections, the governor noted that the number of hospitalizations hasn’t been increasing at the same rate.

He said the wider availability of testing has contrib-uted to the numbers.

EntErtainmEntD.L. Hughley tests

positive for COVID-19 after fainting onstage

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Come-dian D.L. Hughley announced he tested positive for COVID-19 after collapsing onstage during a performance in Nashville, Tennessee.

The stand-up comedian, 57, lost consciousness while per-forming at the Zanies comedy nightclub on Friday night and was hospitalized, news outlets reported. On Saturday, Hughley posted a video on Twitter in which he said he was treated for exhaustion and dehydration afterward.

“I also tested positive for COVID-19, which blew me away,” he says in the video. “I was what they call asymptom-atic. I didn’t have any symptoms, the classic symptoms.”

Hughley plans to quarantine in his Nashville hotel room for 14 days. The remaining two nights of his four-night engagement at Zanies were canceled, according to the club’s online calendar.

“Our friend D.L. Hughley had a medical emergency while per-forming on Friday and was hos-pitalized overnight. According to his publicist, he was suffering from exhaustion after working & traveling this week,” the club posted on Facebook. “Love ya, D.L. and we’ll look forward to seeing this King of Comedy back in Nashville soon!”

Hughley said he still hasn’t ex-hibited any of the typical symp-toms associated with the coronavirus, including shortness of breath and fever. However, fatigue is listed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as among symptoms of the disease.

“So, in addition to all the other stuff you have to look out for,”

Hughley advises in the video, if you “pass out in the middle of a show, onstage, you probably need to get tested.”

In addition to stand-up com-edy, Hughley is also an actor, author and radio and television host. He starred in Spike Lee’s 2000 concert film, “The Original Kings of Comedy,” alongside Steve Harvey, Bernie Mac and Cedric the Entertainer.

Hughley also produced and starred in “The Hughleys,” which aired on ABC and UPN from 1998 to 2002 and hosted a CNN talk show. He currently hosts the radio show “The D.L. Hughley Show,” which is syndicated in dozens of markets.

“Thank you for your prayers and your well wishes — and a few more of them wouldn’t hurt,” Hughley says in the video.

Pirated editions of Bolton memoir have

appeared onlineNEW YORK — John

Bolton’s memoir officially comes out Tuesday after surviving a se-curity review and a legal

challenge from the Justice De-partment. But over the weekend, it was available in ways even his publisher is hoping to prevent.

A PDF of “The Room Where It Happened” has turned up on the internet, offering a free, pirated edition of the former national se-curity adviser’s scathing take-down of President Donald Trump, who has alleged that the book contains classified material that never should have been released.

“We are working assiduously to take down these clearly illegal instances of copyright infringe-ment,” Simon & Schuster spokesperson Adam Rothberg said Sunday.

Piracy has long been a top concern among publishers, es-pecially in the digital age, al-though the actual impact on sales is undetermined. “The Room Where It Happened” has been No. 1 for days on the Ama-zon.com bestseller list. The As-sociated Press was among several news outlets that ob-tained early copies of the book and reported on its contents.

Associated PressD.L. Hughley speaks during the Winter Television Critics Association Press Tour on Feb. 13, 2019, in Pasadena, Calif. Hughley has announced he’s tested positive for COVID-19, following his collapse onstage during a performance in Nashville, Tenn., on Friday, June 19, 2020.

resources to combat crime and develop crime-fighting strategies.

“Where most of your decisions every-day … is driven by data. Where are the problems? How do we know where they’re at, and rapidly deploy people and strategies to stop (crime) patterns or trends,” Eakley said.

“This is not self-initiated low level drug arrests,” Eakley said, citing Sheriff Prendergast’s focus on drug arrests.

n On the police killing of George Floyd: Eakley said one of the biggest problems the videos showed was three Minnesota police officers standing nearby doing nothing to stop the incident.

If elected, Eakley said he would en-sure deputies are trained to see and un-derstand law enforcement behavior that violates agency policy and call out depu-ties that violate it.

One way to help address that is by the use of deputy body cameras. Currently, the CCSO does not use body cameras.

Eakley said body cameras help protect the public and deputies.

“People behave better when they’re on body cameras,” he said.

While the cameras can be costly, they save money in the long run, Eakley said.

As a result of body cameras and people being more aware of their behavior there are fewer injuries, he said. When defen-dants are shown body camera footage, the result is less court time and defen-dants are moved to settle cases faster. Complaints against deputies by the pub-lic are settled faster too when both sides review the body camera footage, Eakley said.

“Leaders need to own what their peo-ple are doing,” he said, and not using body cameras allows leadership to deny knowledge of wrongdoing.

n Drug enforcement: Eakley thinks too much arrest focus is being put on small-time offenders.

“We should be going after people sell-ing pounds not packets (of drugs),” Eak-ley said.

Meanwhile, the county and CCSO needs to work more on getting those ad-dicted the rehab help they need and breaking the chain of sellers and buyers, he said.

“We can’t arrest our way out of these problems,” Eakley said.

n On mental health: Eakley said that one of the current problems between the CCSO and the people with mental health problems after they are arrested is that they are simply put on the street again with no resources.

As sheriff, Eakley said he would work toward a county comprehensive mental health plan for people who need it and create a community mental health unit with medical leadership.

n On growth: Eakley said the CCSO needs to anticipate population growth as the parkway makes its way into Citrus County.

“You have to start planning for this now,” he said.

neighborhoods allows the CCSO to build better relationships.

“We don’t have that anymore,” he said, adding later, “We need to go into the community the way we did years ago. It worked.”

n On interacting with other govern-mental bodies: Klyap said the top county law enforcement officer needs to attend local school board and other county meetings where he can interact with elected officials and the public. Klyap said that incumbent Sheriff Mike Pren-dergast spends far too much time get-ting personally involved with minor drug arrests and photo opportunities.

“We don’t need our sheriff playing cop,” he said.

n On CCSO organization: Klyap said that if elected most of the qualified and hardworking senior officers would likely stay in their positions. But the agency is top heavy and could better utilize its fi-nancial resources to ensure higher

salaries for rank-and-file deputies.n On race relations: Klyap thinks that

the discussion needs to move away from race and instead have the CCSO build a relationship and trust with communities.

“We need to get in the communities. From where I come from we knew our cops,” he said.

that problems have not occurred here be-cause the CCSO relationship with the community has evaporated.

n On changes: If elected, Crippen said he would involve the CCSO more with the community, review the agency and change or stop programs that weren’t working, create a citizen’s advisory board, and post the sheriff ’s office bud-get online for all to review

n On traffic: Crippen said he would en-large the agency’s traffic enforcement efforts, create a unit dedicated to traffic enforcement so as to free-up other depu-ties, and better educate the public about safe driving in highly used thoroughfares and road construction areas.

“It’s almost a reboot. We have to go back to basics,” Crippen said.

n On drugs: Crippen said that the CCSO’s effort should on getting drug dealers off the streets, but focus on those bigger suppliers and get help to the low level users. Crippen complains that Sheriff Prendergast simply recycles drug abusers through the judicial system and focuses on arrest statistics.

“His approach is not working,” Crip-pen said.

More focus should be put toward keep-ing young people away from drugs to start with through law enforcement mentor programs and other social programs.

n On mental health: Crippen said that deputies need more specialized training when interacting with people with men-tal illness and he would work with local mental health care institutions to ensure those with mental health problems get the help they need when interacting with local law enforcement.

Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, County Administrator Randy Oli-ver said.

Plans for the remaining funds have not yet been finalized, he said.

Business owners may use the funds to meet pay-roll, vendor bills or rent.

The grants, as recom-mended, would be avail-able only for businesses with a physical presence in Citrus County. Locally owned franchises would be eligible, but those with-out a business license or

have a current code com-pliance lien would not.

Oliver expects the funds will be available by mid-July. Once the board approves the parameters, it would need to approve a formal resolution at its first meeting in July.

Commissioners meet at 1 p.m. Tuesday, June 23, 2020, at the Citrus County Courthouse with a lengthy agenda that includes:

n 1:30 p.m. public hearing on an ordinance for once-a-week lawn watering.

n 1:45 p.m. presentation by consultant Tindale- Oliver for the county’s transit development plan.

n 2 p.m. public hearing to set the Citrus Springs

MSBU. The recommenda-tion is to increase the an-nual tax from $25 to $35 for improved lots and $20 to $30 for vacant lots. While the Citrus Springs MSBU board recom-mended the increase, the county has received sev-eral letters from residents who oppose it.

n Discussion and direc-tion of possibly retaining a lobbyist.

n Commissioner Jim-mie T. Smith has two items on his agenda: “Dis-cussion and vote on align-ment of working dogs across county policy,” and “Discussion and vote for possible direction for staff changes.”

Editor’s note: The Cam-paign Trail lists where to find candidates, from fundraisers to speaking engagements.

OpiniOnPage A8 - MONDAY, JUNE 22, 2020

Your vote is your voice

Unemployment benefits originate from a business pro-gram that gives terminated or furloughed workers a short term financial safety net when unemployed. This money is pumped back into the economy as it is spent on living expenses.

Historically, Florida’s sys-tem was underfunded be-cause big business lobbied the Republican-dominated Legislature to keep premiums low. During the Great Reces-sion, Obama’s stimulus bill propped up the unemploy-ment system, but rather than make changes that would guarantee solvency at times of great unemployment, then Republican Gov. Scott imple-mented a program that made claiming benefits difficult. The onus of responsibility for proving unemployment was put on the employee, several hurdles had to be overcome, and a tripwire denied bene-fits if there was not enough in the trust fund. Because there was full employment prior to the pandemic, the inherent flaws of the system were opaque to the populace. How-ever, Scott, DeSantis and the Legislature knew of the is-sues because of numerous au-dits, but chose to ignore them. Now over 7 million dollars have been spent to fix the rigged system.

DeSantis, adopting Trump’s playbook, blames the victims, accusing them of filing dupli-cate claims and Scott, another Trump ally, denies responsi-bility as well.

It is naive to expect better of a governor who fires the administrator of the COVID-19 dashboard for alleged in-subordination. Data scientist Rebekah Jones attests she was fired when she objected to the removal of records showing people had symp-toms or positive tests before the cases were announced. She has created a new dash-board (Floridacovidaction.com) that contains more de-tail concerning trends, show-ing more COVID-19 cases than that being reported by the Department of Health.

DeSantis took over for Gov. Scott, who prior to his elec-tion was CEO of a company that committed fraud against Medicare and Medicaid. He was not charged and is now Florida’s Republican senator. Apparently, like Pres-ident Trump, he is above the law.

It is one’s civic duty to vote for those who demonstrate in-tegrity and represent one’s economic interest rather than corrupt politicians that put their interests before yours and erode the public trust which is at an all time low. Your vote is your voice. Use it or someone will fill the vac-uum with one that is an anathema to yours.

Destroying symbols of the past

The era of revisionist his-tory is coming to an end ... fi-nally. For way too long in this country the myths of the “Lost Cause” and the “War of Northern Agression” have been perpetuated for genera-tions and now we see what years of lies and misinforma-tion come to a head. We have Confederate flags being banned and racist statues being torn down; we are cor-recting history. Imagine where we could have been in this country if these very intentional racist acts never were allowed to begin with.

Backing up for a moment, two very important facts must be stated: the Civil War was over slavery — just read each states letters of succession, very crystal clear — and the Confederacy attacked the Union first — see Fort Sumter — clearly the first shots of an act of war. Do we not react when one of our bases are

attacked overseas? Of course we do, with extreme prejudice.

Now on to the major point to this letter, anyone who joined the CSA, especially these leaders, were traitors to the United States. They be-trayed their country and countryman to intentionally wage war. To kill United States soldiers just to keep or protect their states rights to own slaves. It’s that simple folks, no revisionist history needed. Lincoln’s biggest mis-take was not executing these traitors when the war ended, but instead he thought not doing so would be beneficial to the healing of the country.

But in true traitourish fash-ion, he would never find out because of southern sympa-thizer John Wilkes Booth just a few days after the war ended. So this is what these men truly were, cowards and traitors, and a better descrip-tion would be losers.

And Trump acts like chang-ing the name of these “win-ners” would be an insult to our soldiers. Insult? It would be the best thing to honor sol-diers if these bases were re-named after Americans who actually fought for the United States and not a foreign coun-try which the CSA was. In-stead we have bases named after traitors and losers. Just the names of these places in-sult the very institution of American soldiers.

Every form of the Conferate flag needs to be destroyed, every statue needs to be torn down and turned into rubble, and their destruction is not only way overdue but should have never been to start with.

Raising minumum wage not the answer

To some, increasing the minimum wage seems like the compassionate thing to do. However, history has shown that low-skill and low-experience workers have a much tougher time finding jobs. With higher business costs, employers frequently choose outsourcing or mecha-nization over hiring new workers. Wages not tied to in-creased productivity lead to higher prices. That decreases demand for products and ser-vices, thereby further reduc-ing employment. Some may win higher wages but others lose jobs.

A minimum-wage increase is actually a hidden tax in-crease. Any higher cost to the business results in higher prices to consumers. And no matter how politicians try to hide that fact, businesses do not pay taxes; they collect taxes. Consumers pay all the taxes all the time.

Another false claim is in-creasing minimum wage in-creases purchasing power. No, purchasing power de-creases because of job loss, decreased hours and higher prices. The young, the poorly educated and working adults with families are hurt the most. For a good-paying job, do everything you can to

prepare yourself as a skilled employee, someone every company would love to hire.

Sixty-four years ago, mini-mum wage was increased from 75 cents to $1 per hour, a 33% increase. A few years earlier, the unemployment rate for male teens both white and black was about the same, 8%. Three years later, unemployment for white teens was 13% and 22% for black teens. Does it make any sense at all to be employed at a lower wage but unemployed at a higher wage?

Over the next few decades, school choice programs were begun. The education gap began closing, to the delight of African American parents who saw concrete academic improvement for their chil-dren. Sadly, some in Congress have for decades blocked school choice to curry the favor of teacher unions, a large voting bloc for their party.

One of the most successful school choice programs in the nation was in predominantly black Washington, D.C. The entire program was inexpli-cably halted by former Presi-dent Obama. Perhaps wiser heads will prevail in the future.

News media lacking objectivity

After having read Jim Fogler’s June 7 column a number of times, I came to the conclusion if it wasn’t so sad, it would be humorous.

He writes to “rally you in support of two essential pil-lars that will allow us to meet the twin challenges we now face.” One being freedom of the press; he contends free-dom of the press is under as-sault. He pleads to us to remember that journalists are not the enemies.

If we contend that our cur-rent society is filled with con-tention, anger and bitterness, it is the press which fuels that fire.

Modern journalists attempt to cloak themselves in the mantle of people such as Ed-ward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite, even being so dar-ing as to award themselves the Edward R. Murrow Award.

Edward R. Murrow in-spired the nation with his condemnation of Sen. Joe Mc-Carthy. Name a journalist with the courage of Edward R Murrow. Walter Cronkite, in his evening newscasts, in-spired the nation with his calm voice and professional manner even when following his conscience, he found it necessary to call America to task for the Vietnam War.

What do we have today in news media? Murrow and Cronkite? Or Hearst and Pu-litzer? The yellow journalism of the 1890s and Hearst and Pulitzer are alive and well in the modern news media. Truth be told, the media has not seen a hyperbole they do not like. They seem to wish, to attempt, to out sensationalize each other. All too often the news media picks and chooses what they wish to re-port and then fails to report what needs to be reported.

A free press is important to this democracy, but an honest, objective free press is essen-tial to this democracy. With the seeming rending of our national fabric, it is import-ant that the American citi-zenry be well-informed. To be well-informed means that our free press must report to us the unblemished, unbiased, all too often difficult truth. We do not deserve journalists who serve the whims of their political leanings and their corporate sponsors. On the contrary, we deserve true journalists who serve three things: the truth, the Constitu-tion and the American people.

ROAD SAFETY

New traffic signal coming to dangerous

intersectionfter months of public discussion, state offi-cials have agreed

that the northeast Citrus County intersection of CR 491 and SR 200 will be upgraded with a traffic signal, an expanded right turn lane on CR 491, lighting and crosswalks.

This is a welcome deci-sion, and while it will be up to 18 months before the project is completed, the fact that it has been approved and the light will be installed is good news for county resi-dents, many of whom rou-tinely commute to Marion County and pass through this intersection.

The issue first became a discussion item following a meeting between Commis-sion Chair Jeff Kinnard and the Chronicle editorial board last fall when Kinnard was asked if there was con-sideration of a light at that intersection. During the dis-cussion of dangers posed by the intersection Kinnard agreed to bring the issue to the entire commission, and if they agreed, to carry it to the state.

But when he raised the issue with the commission, he was met with opposition from some fellow commis-sioners, some of it appar-ently based more on where

the issue had surfaced rather than the merits of the issue itself.

While commission reaction to the idea was cold, the public reaction was not. This inter-

section has been a hot button issue in the county for much of the last year, with letters to the editor and Soundoffs in the Chronicle on a regular basis.

Then, last month, the major-ity of the commis-sion agreed that Kinnard should ask for the inter-

section to be reviewed by the state Department of Trans-portation through the local Metropolitan Planning Orga-nization (MPO).

However, following that discussion, Kinnard said he was told that unbeknown to commissioners, the state had apparently received citizen inquiry and had begun its own internal study coinci-dent with the county com-mission process.

While we don’t know the exact process that led to the decision, we are elated that the decision has been reached, and we applaud Kinnard for having heard of a safety issue and then hav-ing pursued it, even when he was met with initial opposi-tion. This is a victory for common sense and for pub-lic safety, and we should cel-ebrate it.

THE ISSUE:State officials approve new

traffic signal at CR 491-SR 200

intersection.

No need for attorneys

(Re the June 9, 2020, front-page story, “Barriers go up at food bank,” “Dispute between landlord and tenant escalates; discussions continue”): In regards to the squab-ble between the two nonprofits here in Citrus County, I would be will-ing to bet big money that you could present this problem to a pair of sixth-graders and they would be able to resolve this problem between themselves and wouldn’t need attorneys.

Fireworks a waste of money

(Re the June 10, 2020, front-page story, “Crystal River OKs fireworks show July 4”): I’m call-ing Sound Off in reference to Crystal River. Here they go, wasting money by doing the fire-works display. It’s just a waste of money. They’re burning money up just to give a half hour, 20 minutes or whatever to “ooh and ah” and it’s over with. You’re complaining that you don’t have enough money now, so why not save that money and utilize it in a more better way to-ward the community? But to

waste it and burn it up is a waste of money.

Alexander a great help to county

I want to have an opinion with Doug (Alexander’s) column,

June 10, 2020 (“Changes needed to en-sure equality,” Page A12). What a fine man Doug is and it’s very for-tunate Citrus County has a man like Doug. He helps this county inside and out with food. He’s also a great person and a Christian person. I’ve worked in this county over 35 years, in various

parts ... and we’re a small com-munity. Let God do His work.

Limit posting of political signs

The political sign industry in Citrus County remains strong with the posting of political signs starting in January, some eight to 11 months before an election. In my opinion, the posting of these political signs should be limited to 90 days be-fore a primary or general elec-tion. Secondly, the county should not allow these signs to be placed on public rights of way in front of the power poles.

THE CHRONICLE invites you to call “Sound Off” with your opinions about local or statewide subjects. You do not need to leave your name, and have less than a minute to record. COMMENTS will be edited for length, libel, personal or political attacks and good taste. Editors will cut libelous material. OPINIONS expressed are purely those of the callers.

2019, the agency’s traffic unit had issued 21,150, nearly twice the number four years before.

The same was seen for the number of traffic citations.

In 2017, deputies issued 2,904 traffic citations, a few hundred more than during the previous two years. By 2018, the number jumped to 4,574. During 2019, the agency’s traffic unit issued 6,966, nearly three times the number four years before.

Did the rise in citations and warnings have a positive effect on traffic accidents, injuries and fatalities? It appears so.

In 2017, the number if traffic crashes reached 3,100. But by 2018 the number fell to 3,018. By 2019, it fell again to 2,950.

“That doesn’t happen by accident,” Prendergast said of safer county roads.

n On deputy pay: “Deputy pay is al-ways a chronic challenge,” Prendergast said.

But Prendergast said during his first term as sheriff he’s made available to his employees 12% in merit pay opportuni-ties and that almost 80 percent of his em-ployees were awarded their maximum merit bonuses. He said he is also working to get CCSO a 3.5% pay raise this year.

Prendergast said he also offers em-ployees fully paid health insurance and substantially subsidized health insur-ance benefits for their families.

n On criticism too many deputies are leaving under Prendergast’s leadership: Prendergast told the Chronicle that during his tenure, 70 deputies left his de-partment. Of those, 24 retired and many of the others left for other career oppor-tunities and higher pay, During that time, Prendergast said, he’s hired 65 new deputies and is interviewing five more.

n On criticism that his department focuses too much on arrests involving small amounts of drugs: Prendergast said voters gave him a mandate that they wanted illegal drugs and drug sales stamped out.

“We’re absolutely not arresting the wrong people,” Prendergast said, adding that many of those his deputies arrest have multiple drug violations and traf-ficking histories.

Prendergast said the reason for a lack

of arrests involving large amounts of drugs is because “the drug dealers are running scared.”

Those arrested who are fueling drug addiction are precisely the people that county residents want arrested, he said.

n On use of deadly force: Prendergast said his agency, with both state and fed-eral accreditation, is far ahead of many other agencies to ensure force is not used unless necessary.

Following the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Prendergast said his department reviewed its policy of deadly force and to use it only when life is at risk.

He said that in 2019, his agency re-sponded to 173,556 calls for emergency and non-emergency help. He said that less than 1/10 of 1% involved any use of force at all when making an arrest. He said that was 1/16 of the national average.

n On community policing: Prendergast said that community policing hasn’t been done away with but evolved into intelligence-led policing. Walking a beat as police did decades ago just doesn’t work well in counties such as Citrus where residential developments are sprawling and few people are outside.

Instead, CCSO deputies and its leader-ship play an important role and building relationships with organizations such as youth leagues, churches, and other county governments.

WHO reports largest single-day increase in cases

GENEVA — The World Health Organization on Sunday reported the largest single-day increase in coro-navirus cases by its count, at more than 183,000 new cases in the latest 24 hours.

The UN health agency said Brazil led the way with 54,771 cases tallied and the U.S. next at 36,617. Over 15,400 came in in India.

Experts said rising case counts can reflect multiple factors including more wide-spread testing as well as broader infection.

Overall in the pandemic, WHO reported 8,708,008 cases — 183,020 in the last 24 hours — with 461,715 deaths worldwide, with a daily increase of 4,743.

More than two-thirds of those new deaths were re-ported in the Americas.

The U.S. has the world’s highest number of reported infections, over 2.2 million, and the highest death toll, at about 120,000, according to Johns Hopkins. Health offi-cials say robust testing is vital for tracking outbreaks and keeping the virus in check.

In Asia, China and South Korea reported new coro-navirus cases Sunday in outbreaks that threatened to set back their recoveries.

Chinese authorities re-corded 25 new confirmed cases — 22 in Beijing. In the past week, Beijing tight-ened travel controls by re-quiring anyone who wants to leave the Chinese capital, a city of 20 million people, to show proof they tested neg-ative for the virus.

In South Korea, nearly 200 infections have been traced to employees at a door-to-door sales company in Seoul, and at least 70 other infections are tied to a table tennis club there. But South Korean officials are reluctant to enforce stron-ger social distancing to avoid hurting the economy.

One dead, 11 hurt in Minneapolis

shootingMINNEAPOLIS — A shoot-

ing in a popular Minneapolis nightlife area early Sunday left one man dead and 11 people wounded in a chaotic scene that sent people ducking into restaurants and other busi-nesses for cover.

The shooting broke out shortly after midnight in the city’s trendy Uptown neigh-borhood, a nightlife hub with bars, restaurants and retail including Apple and Fjallraven stores.

Police first said 10 people had been shot with “various severity levels of injuries,” but revised their total up-ward in a tweet posted just after 3 a.m. The man died at the hospital, not at the scene, they said. None of the other injuries were con-sidered life-threatening.

Police said they believe there was more than one shooter, described only as “individuals on foot.” No one was in custody, and police have not said what may have prompted the shooting. All of the injured were adults.

Father’s Day from a distanceMartha IrvIne AP national writer

CHICAGO — Wake Sharp got to see his family on Father’s Day -- see them, not hug them, not kiss them, not even shake hands.

Because of the terrible toll taken by the coronavirus on older people in nursing homes and other institutions, the 93-year-old Navy veteran and his loved ones had to stay on opposite sides of a plexiglass barrier and talk by phone at the assisted-living home outside San Francisco where he is a resident.

“It’s better than nothing!” he said. “I really enjoy it.”

Dads at nursing homes across the country marked Father’s Day at a forced distance from their families Sunday. Some families relied on video calls; others used social media to send their wishes.

The virus has made in-person visits with elderly and high-risk family members difficult and sometimes impossible in recent months, though parts of the coun-try have begun loosening up. Maryland and Illinois were among states that allowed out-door visits at nursing homes with masks and six feet of distance.

Frank Wolff, his wife and their son visited his 91-year-old father on a patio outside his Chicago as-sisted-living home on Father’s Day. The staff took everyone’s temperature and followed all other regulations.

“It was good to see him and get a feeling for how he’s really doing,” said Wolff, who hadn’t seen his father, Howard Wolff, since Illinois shut down in mid-March.

Sharp got to see his family through a plexiglass cubicle built by a staff member for Rockville Terrace, the home in Fairfield, California, where Sharp lives.

Four generations of the Sharp family gathered in a courtyard. The eldest among them, arriving

with the help of his walker, took a seat inside the three-sided box with phone in hand, talking with family members on the outside on one of their phones.

“We hug each other through the glass,” said Sharp, who hasn’t had a real hug from them in a long while.

This wasn’t the first time they visited that way.

“I don’t know who enjoys it more. My family and I — or Dad,” said son Dan Sharp, who lives in Novato, California. He paused, then added, “Probably Dad.”

Rockville Terrace also had a car parade with families with signs for Father’s Day and a bar-becue so the dads could have steaks and burgers.

The coronavirus has killed an estimated 120,000 people

nationwide. As of mid-June, more than 45,500 residents and staff had died from outbreaks at nurs-ing homes and other long-term care facilities, according to a run-ning count by The Associated Press. That was about 40% of the total deaths from the scourge at the time.

Nursing homes have been among the last places to loosen restrictions. Families and nursing home officials worry about the ef-fects the isolation is having on residents’ mental health.

While video calls have helped, Rockville Terrace’s plexiglass cu-bicle — which creator Jason Reyes jokingly calls the “Sneeze-guard 3000” — is another possible solution. It was introduced in April.

“It’s not back to normal … but it

helps,” said Reyes, a managing partner of Carlson Management, a company with seven facilities in California. He said he was driven to build the 128-square-foot enclo-sures after so many residents and family members were distraught when they couldn’t see one another.

“The whole situation just tugged on the heartstrings,” Reyes said, noting that demand for cubicle visits — each resi-dent’s session with family lasting an hour on weekdays and 30 min-utes on weekends — has been strong at the three facilities where they have them.

Throughout Father’s Day on so-cial media, children posted pho-tos and messages about the dads they couldn’t see.

“Happy Father’s Day Pa! I hate that I can’t be there today,” Kelly Cooper, who lives in Bedford-shire, England, wrote on Insta-gram, alongside photos of her and her dad, David Cooper, who’s 73 and considered high risk. He lives on his own in London.

Cooper said her own disabling health problems also have lim-ited her travel.

“As soon as this virus calms the hell down and it’s safe to visit, then I’ll be there. xxxx Love you to the moon and back Pa xxxx,” she wrote.

Wolff in Chicago said his own father was happy to see him but took his mask off and was particu-larly frustrated that he couldn’t hug his grandson. He is also hard of hearing and so has become a fan of talking on a big screen that has been set up so residents can make video calls.

“Just do the FaceTime,” How-ard Wolff told his son. “It’s easier.”

So his son said they will con-tinue to do both types of visits. “Yeah, so we can’t hug. But he’s safe,” Frank Wolff said. “All in all, it’s the only thing that makes sense.”

Associated PressThis handout photo provided by his family shows 93-year-old Wake Sharp, center behind plexiglass, visiting with three other generations of his family for Father’s Day, Sunday, June 21, 2020, in Fairfield, California. This setup, in which they talk by phone, has enabled the family to visit in person during the coronavirus pandemic. Sharp’s son Dan Sharp, on the right, says, “I don’t know who enjoys it more. My family and I — or dad.” He paused then added, “Probably dad.” Wake Sharp is a World War II veteran who worked for years as a vice president for the Montgomery Ward department store chain.

Statues fall, other symbols targeted

Associated Press

RALEIGH, N.C. — Spec-tators in North Carolina’s capital cheered Sunday morning as work crews finished the job started by protesters Friday night and removed a Confeder-ate statue from the top of a 75-foot monument.

Across the country, an initially peaceful protest in Portland, Oregon, against racial injustice turned violent early Sun-day: Baton-wielding po-lice used flash-bang grenades to disperse dem-onstrators throwing bot-tles, cans and rocks at sheriff ’s deputies near downtown’s Justice Center.

News outlets reported that work crews acting on the order of Democratic North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper removed the statue Sunday morning and began taking down the obelisk on which it stood.

“Monuments to white supremacy don’t belong in places of allegiance, and it’s past time that these painful memorials be moved in a legal, safe way,” Cooper said in a press release Saturday.

In St. Augustine, Flor-ida, the nation’s oldest city, a debate over history is

looming over a monument, located in the city’s his-toric central plaza, memo-rializing dozens of the city’s sons who died fight-ing for the Confederacy during the Civil War.

The Rev. Ron Rawls, a pastor at St. Paul’s African Methodist Episcopal Church, calls the monu-ment disrespectful and wants it removed. The City Commission is expected to decide whether to heed that call on Monday.

As statues and memori-als to the Confederacy have been targeted across the South, prompted by the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, protesters have also at times targeted Founding Fathers who were slaveholders, includ-ing Washington.

In California, protesters over the weekend targeted statues and busts of for-mer President Ulysses Grant, who commanded the Union Army that de-feated the Confederacy; Francis Scott Key, who wrote “The Star Spangled Banner;” and Spanish missionary Junipero Serra, who is credited with bringing Roman Ca-tholicism to the western United States. Grant and Key were both slave own-ers at points in their lives.

Talladega race postponed by rain NASCAR event with fans gets

pushed to today John Zenor AP sports writer

TALLADEGA, Ala. — Thun-derstorms Sunday forced NASCAR to postpone the Cup Series race at Talladega Super-speedway that was to mark the return of more fans to the track.

The race, which was pushed back to 3 p.m. on Monday, is the first amid the coronavirus pan-demic in which NASCAR opened the gates for up to 5,000 fans. Those in the grand-stands were urged to seek shel-ter roughly 30 minutes before the scheduled start, leading to a two-plus hour wait.

The addition of fans and the ban of Confederate flags weren’t the only changes set to be on dis-play in the race.

NASCAR implemented new rules in response to Ryan New-man’s harrowing accident when

racing for the win on the final lap at Daytona in February.

The changes include the elim-ination of aero ducts at super-speedway tracks, a reduction in size of throttle body and requir-ing slip tape to be applied along the entire length of the lower rearward facing surfaces of the rear bumper cover.

Teams headed to Talladega without any practical knowl-edge of their effect. Then there’s the still-minimal but increased fan presence.

NASCAR allowed 1,000 mili-tary members to attend last weekend’s rain-disrupted race at Homestead-Miami Speedway. The event was stopped several times for more than three hours of total delays.

NASCAR has banned the Con-federate flag from being dis-played at its events but supporters of the symbol still managed to be seen Sunday. Ve-hicles lined the boulevard out-side the speedway waving the flag and a plane flew above the track pulling a banner of the Confederate flag that said “De-fund NASCAR.”

NASCAR has not stated how

exactly it plans to stop fans from displaying the flag on track property and none of the

instances Sunday at Talladega were inside the facility.

MLB negotiations

drag onPlayers balk after Manfred email

ronald Blum AP baseball writer

NEW YORK — An email from baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred to union head Tony Clark led to a balk in the drawn-out talks to start the pandemic-delayed season.

The executive committee of the players’ association was set to vote and reject Major League Baseball’s latest offer for a 60-game season on Sunday.

Players want 70 games and $275 million more than teams are offering. They are worried that if a resurgence of the new coronavirus causes the 2020 season to be cut short, the deal being negotiated would lock in innovations for 2021 and lessen the union’s bargaining power.

Manfred wrote that if fewer than the agreed-upon number of games are played this year, the 2021 changes would be voided in a manner that would leave them up for renegotia-tion, people familiar with the email told The Associated Press. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because no statements were authorized.

Players didn’t take a vote and will consider their next move.

Among the items in the pro-posed deal for 2020 and 2021 are expanded playoffs, use of the designated hitter in games involving National League teams and allowing advertise-ments on uniforms. The 2020-only items include start-ing extra innings with a runner on second and a discussion of whether to allow tie games after a specified total of innings plus player re-entry in extra innings.

Some players would prefer there not be a deal and that Manfred unilaterally order the schedule. Because players have insisted on full prorated pay, he has threatened a schedule of about 50 games.

The proposed deal would give Manfred the right to sus-pended or cancel play if “re-strictions on travel throughout the United States are imposed” or if he determines after con-sulting medical experts and the union that there has been a change in circumstances pos-ing “an unreasonable health and safety risk to players or staff to stage those games, even without fans in attendance.”

Webb for the win

doug Ferguson AP golf writer

HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Webb Simpson celebrated another vic-tory on Father’s Day, this time with a tartan jacket instead of a U.S. Open trophy.

In a wild sprint to the finish after a three-hour storm delay, Simpson ran off five birdies in a six-hole stretch on the back nine at Harbour Town and closed with a 7-under 64 for a one-shot victory over Abraham Ancer.

Simpson won the U.S. Open at Olym-pic Club in 2012. The U.S. Open has been scheduled to end on Father’s Day every year since 1976, but it was moved to September this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The RBC Heritage filled the spot on the schedule and Simpson, now a father of five, became a winner for the second time this year with a record score at Harbour Town.

He didn’t have much of a choice with so many low scores on a soft course with little wind. He finished at 22-under 262, breaking by two the tournament record set by Brian Gay in 2009.

“It was a crazy day,” Simpson said. “I didn’t get it going until 12 and then the putts started going in and I started

getting confident. It’s amazing to be standing here right now.”

Simpson, who won the Phoenix Open in February, moved to No. 5 in the world. He also moved to the top of the FedEx Cup.

It was a tough runner-up finish for Ancer, trying to become the fifth straight winner of the RBC Heritage to capture his first PGA Tour victory at Harbour Town. He hit all 18 greens in regulation and tied for the lead with a bold fairway metal over the trees to the par-5 15th that set up a two-putt birdie. He also stayed in the game with a birdie on the 17th.

Ancer shot 65.There was just no catching Simpson,

whose only birdies were on the par 5s on the front nine until he couldn’t miss. He rolled in birdie putts from 10 feet and 20 feet on the 12th and 13th, two-putted for birdie on the 15th and then sealed it with two more birdies from 15 feet and 18 feet.

Colonial winner Daniel Berger also stayed in the mix by chipping in for birdie on the 17th and closing with a 65. Tyrrell Hatton, whose last tournament was his victory in the Arnold Palmer In-vitational, was leading until a poor tee shot led to bogey on the 13th, and bogeys were hard to recover from on this day.

He shot 66 and tied for third.Dylan Frittelli had the low score of a

tournament filled with them, a 62 that put him in the lead before the final groups even teed off. Justin Thomas had a 63 and tied him. Both knew it wasn’t going to hold up, especially after return-ing from a storm delay to still conditions and even softer conditions.

But it led to a carousel of contenders, and even Brooks Koepka got in the mix.

Koepka hit driver on the 331-yard ninth hole that hit on the slope above the bunker and settled 3 feet for his eagle. He birdied the next two to get within one of the lead, but his hopes ended with a 5-foot birdie putt he missed on the par-5 15th. Koepka missed a pair of 5-foot par putts on the front nine.

He closed with a 65 and finished sev-enth, his best result since the Tour Championship.

“Six months off — three with the lock down and then three on my knee — so yeah, it feels like it’s been a really long time since I’ve even felt some juices flowing,” Koepka said. “It just felt nice to be in contention.”

Rory McIlroy closed with a 70 and tied for 41st, his second straight result

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

out of the top 30 after going seven consecutive events worldwide with no finish worse than fifth.

The PGA Tour now heads to the Connecticut for the Travelers Championship, and it’s still to be determined who will be playing until coro-navirus tests are released for those on the charter flight.

The uncertainty stems from the first positive test — Nick Watney on Friday — along with 11 tests for those who had been in close contact with Watney. Until the first tournament back at Colonial in Fort Worth, Texas, the area

around Harbour Town was crowded with the start of summer vacation.

Those not on the charter will be tested upon arrival in Connecticut. Any posi-tive test means a player must withdraw.

SPORTS BRIEFS

Second chance at Senior NightChris

Bernhardt Jr.Staff writer

Thanks to COVID-19, spring sports athletes never got a chance to cele-brate Senior Night. Keith Fisher, the public address announcer for Crystal River High baseball, wanted to change that for at least a few of them.

On Sunday, June 28, 2020, Crimson Baseball, a Citrus County-based travel ball organization helmed by Fisher and his wife Keni, will put on Black and Red Senior Night, hosted by Dunnellon Little League.

“We have a lot of kids throughout Florida that we coach,” Fisher said. “A lot of kids we still talk to. They’re missing out on the rest of their senior year; prom, finishing the rest of baseball season and even Senior Night. To get that little bit of recognition is

one of the things guys al-ways look forward to.

“Anything like that we could put together, we’re going to try to do. That’s what it’s about, giving them a little bit of some-thing they missed out on.”

The Black and Red Se-nior Night will bring to-gether Class of 2020 players from across eight area schools. A total of 24 players are set to participate, di-vided into two teams based on positional and pitching needs in order to maintain competitive balance.

Among those expected to take the field are Jon Baer, Anthony Cairone, Mark Crawford, Kamron Fisher, Alden Hudak, Jaden Pearson and Tyler Richardson from Crystal River; Jarred Daigle and Mikey Gatto from Citrus; and Derrick Batson, Jakob Brace, Daniel Saydoff and Jesse Thomas III from Lecanto.

“Everything they’d get

at a Senor Night game in high school they’ll get with us,” Keith Fisher said.

There will, however, be a difference in the format from a typical prep con-test. This will be a 9-inning game, rather than seven, and there will be continu-ous batting so that all 12 players on each team are assured a few turns at the plate.

The event kicks off at 4 p.m. with a pregame cer-emony mimicking Senior Night festivities, in which seniors will be escorted on to the field by their par-ents and introduced individually.

Admission to the game will be $4 (free for those under age 5). There will be food, music and a bounce house. There will also be safety measures based on travel ball health guide-lines provided in response to the pandemic.

Temperature checks will be performed and hand

sanitizer will be available at the entrance. No coolers are allowed in the dugout, so players must bring their own drinks, and sharing equipment is prohibited. Extra seating will be set up around the park in an ef-fort to space out spectators.

“If we have fans who don’t feel well that day, sit at home and watch it be-cause we’re going to live stream it,” Keith Fisher said.

The link for the live stream will be posted on the Crimson Baseball page on Facebook.

“The only thing we want to take away from this is to make sure they didn’t miss out,” Keith Fisher said. “We’ve all seen these kids grow up. We want to make sure they know that we’re proud of everything they’ve done. We want them to know we still care and we want to put this on for them.”

MLB’s proposal for 60 games includes $1.48 bil-lion in salary plus a $25 mil-lion postseason players’ pool, while the union’s plan includes $1.73 billion in sal-ary and a $50 million pool.

Absent an agreement, the union would file a grievance claiming MLB violated the provision in the March 26 agreement recognizing “that each of the parties shall work in good faith to as soon as is practicable commence, play, and complete the fullest 2020 championship season and post-season that is eco-nomically feasible,” subject

to several provisions.Those provisions say that

without MLB’s consent, the season shall not start until there are no legal restric-tions on playing in front of fans at the 30 regular- season ballparks, no rele-vant travel restrictions and no health or safety risk to players, staff or spectators to playing in the 30 regular ballparks. The agreement also says the sides “will dis-cuss in good faith the eco-nomic feasibility of playing games in the absence of spectators or at appropri-ate substitute neutral sites.”

MLB had proposed having the season run from July 19 or 20 through Sept. 27, the shortest since the 1870s, while the union

agreed to the start date and said it should end Sept. 30, or earlier using doubleheaders. Both sides proposed pitch-ers and catchers report June 26, followed by position players two days later, but they are running out of time to finalize a schedule that would allow players time to meet those dates.

A rise in positive tests last week in Florida caused MLB to close all

30 training camps for deep cleaning and disinfecting. The Philadelphia Phillies announced Friday that five players had tested positive for COVID-19.

Twenty-nine of the 30 teams now intend to hold training at their regular- season stadiums rather than spring training sites. Toronto may be an exception due to Canadian federal and On-tario provincial restrictions.

The flag ban is another statement for NASCAR.

Fan David Radvansky, who started coming to Tal-ladega in the 1990s when his father parked cars at races, was among fans ap-plauding NASCAR’s deci-sion to ban the Confederate flags.

“I don’t think there’s a place for it in NASCAR, to be honest with you,” the 32-year-old said.

“That doesn’t sit well with all the good ole boys but it is what it is.”

But the Confederate flags were still selling at Ed Sugg’s merchandise tent across from the track.

“They’re doing very well,” said the Helena, Alabama resident, who has been selling an array of wares at NASCAR races for 21 years. “Peo-ple are disappointed that NASCAR has taken that stance. It’s been around for as long as all of us have been. I don’t think anybody really connects it to any kind of racism or anything. It’s just a South-ern thing. It’s transpar-ent. It’s just a heritage thing.”

Mark Twain said of Rudyard Kipling, “Between us, we cover all knowledge; he knows all that can be known, and I know the rest.”

That would be a tough twosome to take on in a general knowledge quiz.

In a bridge setting, though, it can be important to play the card that you are known to hold. How does that apply in this four-spade contract?

West led the club 10: jack, ace, eight. After East shifted to the heart eight, what did declarer do?

North’s two-diamond response was natural and game-forcing.

With a diamond to lose, South could afford to concede only one trump trick. The initial plan was to hope that East started with royal-10-third or any beneficial double-ton. Declarer would expect to play first low to his nine, then low to the jack.

So, South won with dummy’s heart ace and played a spade to his nine, losing to West’s queen. Now West led another heart.

Declarer won and played a dia-mond to the queen and ace. After winning East’s diamond return on the board, South called for dum-my’s second spade. What happened then?

Declarer was getting ready to play his jack, but East followed suit with the four. Just in time, South hit the brakes. What was the spade position?

East could not have started with K-10-2. If he had K-10-4-2, the con-tract was unmakable. But if he had 10-4-2 ... Declarer put up his ace to bring down West’s king and make his contract.

East should have played the spade 10 on dummy’s seven, the card he was known to hold from the first round of the suit.

BESTTONIGHT’S

8 p.m. on LWhose Line Is It Anyway?

In a new episode, host Aisha Tyler welcomes a returning guest, comic Jonathan Mangum, who joins cast regulars Ryan Stiles, Wayne Brady and Colin Mochrie in a series of improv games incorporating ideas pro-vided by their live audience in the studio. After each round, Ty-ler doles out points to the play-

ers whose work she enjoyed the most, then declares a winner at the end of the episode, although the games themselves really are the whole point.

8 p.m. on (SMITH)

Combat ShipsSeason 2 of this fascinating do-cuseries, which chronicles the history of maritime conflict and the vessels involved in it, opens with a premiere that examines one of the world’s most effec-tive war machines: the Viking longship. The program reveals how the boat’s design evolved from its initial form as a swift war canoe to the versatile and justifiably feared ship that would change the course of history.

9 p.m. on LPenn & Teller: Fool Us

The guest illusionists may be new, but The CW clearly doesn’t believe in tampering with success as this hit reality competition series returns for Season 7. The basic premise is the same: Rising stars in the magic world perform one of their best tricks for vet-eran magicians Penn Jillette and

Teller, who then try to crack the secret behind the illusion after just one viewing. If a magician is able to stump the duo, that stage wizard wins an appearance with the duo in their Las Vegas show. Alyson Hannigan is host.

9 p.m. on (TRAV)

Buried Worlds With Don Wildman

“Croatoan.” That single word, found carved into a fence, re-mains one of the lone clues to the fate of a 16th-century British colony known as Roanoake, where the population of this Vir-ginia settlement vanished with-out a trace. A new episode called “Demon Woods” finds host Don Wildman visiting another Virginia town where paranormal activity has been spiking. After finding what may be a link to the “lost colony,” Wildman retraces the path of a mysterious relic to see whether dark magic spelled doom for the ill-fated settlers.

10 p.m. on # %Independent Lens

Filmmaker Stacey Tenen-baum’s refreshing new docu-

mentary “Pipe Dreams” chal-lenges some off-the-mark pre-conceptions about an age-old instrument — the pipe organ — while also taking viewers inside the high-stakes world of competitive organ music. The film charts the journeys of four prodigiously talented organ players during the run-up to the Canadian International Organ Competition, regarded by many as the Olympics for organ mu-sic. Held every three years in Montreal, the event forces com-petitors to confront their worst pressures and anxieties.

10 p.m. on (BRAVO)

Camp Getaway

In the season finale “We Came, We Camped, We Coordinated,” Claire and the staff turn camp into a Halloween horror show, while Nile and Gavin clash over the fall finale football game. Elsewhere, Adam and Sophia discuss the status of their relationship, and Randall meets a “special someone” at long last.

Dear Annie: It’s horrible to be judged. Here is my story: I am fortunate to

have a nice car. This vehicle is my first new vehicle after 15 years of saving. From my addi-tional savings, I am able to pro-vide to others and deliver the items they need. I also have friends who do not have trans-portation to get from food drives and other similar places.

W h e n t h e s c h o o l s c l o s e d , m y daughter and I p a c k e d up what we had in our pan-try and dropped it off at h e r friend’s house, knowing that they would need food. I went to a school district food distribu-tion to secure more food for them to drop off since they didn’t have transportation to get to the drive.

While there, I got death stares and screamed at that I didn’t need free food because of my car! I’m fortunate to have a nice car, but I’m using it to deliver food to those who need it most. I’m also purchas-ing food, diapers and formula for churches to distribute. Do not judge if you don’t know the whole story. -- Don’t Judge a Book by the Cover

Dear Don’t Judge a Book by the Cover: I’m sorry that you received such harsh judgment from others. In this world, un-fortunately, there will always be people who judge or con-demn others. However, there will also be people who forgive and love. You are teaching your daughter to serve others, and your helping to provide food and essential supplies for those who need support is ad-mirable. Doesn’t that make you feel good? Try to focus on the people you are serving and not the people who are judg-ing, and you will be surprised at how quickly the judges fall by the wayside. It’s about a shift in where you draw your attention.

Dear Annie: We are cer-tainly in challenging times. It sounds like COVID-19 will be with us for a long time. As a semiretired nurse, I think one of the greatest preventive mea-sures is good hand hygiene. Unfortunately, often I see poor technique when using the al-cohol hand sanitizers. Most people use one pump, rub their palms, back of hands, and between fingers but do not treat the fingertips.

Most of us touch our faces, particularly our eyes, with our fingertips. While the palm is still wet with sanitizer, rub the fingertips into the palm, with some sanitizer getting under the nails.

Even better is washing with soap and water for 20 seconds, again paying attention to the fingertips. I think people have become very complacent with alcohol sanitizers, thinking they have cleaned their hands and not realizing that it was an incomplete action, perhaps not ridding them of this infec-tious virus.

I love your column, which brings so much helpful info and advice to many. Thank you for letting me share. -- Old Nurse

Dear Old Nurse: I love your letter! Hearing from profes-sionals on tips for proper hand-washing, and the use of alcohol sanitizers, always de-serves a round of applause. Thank you for your reminder on how to properly protect against this virus, and many others, through proper sanita-tion techniques.
