Putnam charter schools buck state trends of closures
Trend started 13
years ago in county
with reading center
BY ASIA AIKINS
Palatka Daily News
A growing number of Florida
families are choosing charter
schools for their children’s education each year.
According to the state
Department of Education, the
number of state-funded charter schools has grown to more
than 640 during the last 20
years, with student enrollment
topping 251,000 students.
Charter schools earn their
name through an agreement
with a local district — a charter. According to the education
department, the charters give
schools a measure of freedom
in their curriculums and an
alternative to traditional public schools, while committing to
higher standards of accountability.

leaders got on board with the
growing trend 13 years ago,

McCool, whose school was recently awarded a
Partnership for Effective Programs for Students
with Autism grant through the state Center for
Autism and Related Disabilities.
“If you don’t have a concealed weapon (permit), you can apply for one in (the Palatka)

process (and) streamlining the fingerprints.”
— Putnam County Tax Collector Linda Myers
about her office now allowing residents to apply
for concealed weapons permits without leaving
Putnam County.
“We want to make sure that all money is
spent correctly and spent for the students. It’s
really unfortunate that across our nation

Some thoughts about Putnam as it
was, as it is and as it should be
I
live in East Palatka, which incidentally,
is showing the only smattering of
growth in the county. I drive over
Memorial Bridge quite often, and being an
old Chamber of Commerce director, I try to
visualize how outsiders see Palatka from
that approach. Beirut comes to mind, just
after a car-sized bomb has exploded.
A review of the past five years uncovers a
plethora of poor planning by multiple agencies. That first block is an abomination.
Whatever the current project turns out to
be, it should be finished post-haste.
Regardless of its early critics, the bicentennial tower clock is the riverfront’s
redeeming feature, and there wasn’t a dime
of tax money used to erect it.
The oak trees planted in the parking lot
are attractive, but they grow fast and soon
will hide the view of the river, Palatka’s best
feature. When those trees grow larger, the
city might have to hire extra maintenance
personnel just to rake leaves. It makes a
case for evergreens.
The grand avenue bicycle path through
Palatka and across the bridge has been
there over a year now and has proven to be a
poor use of taxpayers’ money. All the proof
one needs is to count the invisible bicyclers.
The $150 million spent on that project, just
through Palatka, would have built a fine
school and staffed it.
Anyone who has actually used the walkway that goes under the bridge, hold up
your hand. Now wave at that other person
whose hand went up.
Palatka’s city fathers, and mother, should
bite the bullet and nix the proposed water
taxi idea. There are two chances of it being
successful — little and none. Sorry to disappoint my longtime friend Mary Lawson
Brown, but that’s just the way the old ball
bounces. Yes, I know much of the funds are
from a grant, but it is still taxpayers’ money.
The big cost to Palatka will come later.

School travel woes

died walking these roads, in the dark, to

Court throws out charges
in attempted self-abortion
By Travis Loller
Associated Press
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. —
A Tennessee woman accused of
trying to end her pregnancy
with a coat hanger will not face
attempted murder charges, her
attorney said Monday.
Anna Yocca was charged
with attempted first-degree
murder when she was arrested in Murfreesboro in
December.
According to police, Yocca
filled a bathtub with water and
attempted to self-abort last
September. After she began
bleeding, her boyfriend took
her to a hospital where doctors
delivered a 24-week-old, 1.5pound boy. Doctors said the
child will need medical support
for the rest of his life because
of the injuries he sustained. He
is in state custody.
Public Defender Gerald
Melton had asked the judge to
dismiss the charge against
Yocca, arguing that state law
doesn’t allow a pregnant
woman to be charged with
murdering her own fetus.

Christine F. Cheshire
In court on Monday, Melton
said the prosecutor in the case
has agreed to bring a new
indictment against Yocca
before the grand jury next
week. Melton told reporters
outside the courtroom he
anticipates the new charge
will be aggravated assault.
“We’re now in more realistic
legal territory,” Melton said.

Thomas asks first questions in 10 years
By Sam Hananel
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Justice
Clarence Thomas broke 10
years of courtroom silence
Monday and posed questions
during a Supreme Court oral
argument, provoking gasps
from the audience.
And it wasn’t just one question; it was a string of them in
an exchange that lasted several minutes.
It was only the second week
the court has heard arguments since the death of
Justice Antonin Scalia,
Thomas’ friend and fellow conservative, whom he’d sat next
to for seven years. Scalia was
famous for aggressive and
sometimes combative questions from the bench. His
chair is now draped in black in
observance of his Feb. 13
death.
Thomas’ gravelly voice
unexpectedly filled the courtroom and enlivened an otherwise sleepy argument about
g un r i g h t s . H e p e p p e r e d
Justice Department lawyer
Ilana Eisenstein, who was trying to wind up her argument,
with 10 or so questions that
seemed to be a vigorous
defense of the constitutional
right to own a gun.
“Ms. Eisenstein, one question,” Thomas said. “This is a
misdemeanor violation. It suspends a constitutional right.
Can you give me another area
where a misdemeanor violation suspends a constitutional
right?”
Until then, it had been business as usual for the first 50
minutes of the hourlong session in Voisine v. United
States. The court was consid-

ering the reach of a federal
law that bans people convicted
of domestic violence from owning guns.
None of the other justices
visibly reacted to Thomas’
remarks.
Eisenstein noted that violating other laws can, in some
cases, limit a person’s freespeech rights under the First
Amendment.
“OK,” Thomas said. “So can
you think of a First
Amendment suspension or a
suspension of a First
Amendment right that is permanent?”
It was a topic no other justice had asked about. And his
comments came after several
of the other justices seemed to
favor the government’s position that the law applies
whether the abuse is intentional or reckless.
Thomas last asked a question in court on Feb. 22, 2006,
and his unusual silence over
the years has become a curiosity. Every other justice regu-
larly poses questions from the
bench.
Thomas has come under
criticism for his silence from
some who say he is neglecting
his duties as a justice. He has
said he relies on the written
briefs in a case and doesn’t
need to ask questions of the
lawyers appearing in court.
Carrie Severino, a former
clerk to Thomas who now
heads a conservative advocacy
group, said the justice had
kept his silence “because he
felt that oral arguments have
become less civil and respectful of the attorneys and their
arguments over the past two
decades, often becoming little
more than rhetorical jousting
among the justices.”

South, while Trump mocked
them in Radford, Va.
At one point, Trump was
interrupted while he was talking about illegal immigration.
“Are you from Mexico?” he
shouted from the stage.
Several minutes of shouting
and booing ensued.
The crowd hooted, and
Trump briefly quieted them.
Then, he looked in front of
the stage and asked a woman,
“You have a problem? Get her
out.”
At another point, he was
interrupted by 20 or more protesters chanting “Black lives
matter” and other slogans.
They, too, were escorted out,
shouting all the way.
Trump won three of four
early voting states, roiling a
party divided over the prospect
of the brash billionaire becoming its nominee.
Cruz warned the “Trump
train” could become “unstoppable” if he rolls to big victories
today.
Cruz cast his rival as a carbon copy of Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton and suggested not even Trump “knows
what he would do” as president.
Florida Sen. Rubio picked up
Monday where he left off over
the weekend, dogging the GOP
front-runner for not disavowing
Sunday a white supremacist
and the Ku Klux Klan.
Rubio said Trump’s decision
not to denounce the public support of former KKK leader
David Duke disqualifies him
from the nomination by “the
party of Lincoln.”
Trump told NBC’s “Today”
on Monday he did not hear or
understand the question

asked about Duke and the
KKK, blaming a “very bad earpiece.”

LEESBURG, Va. — Donald

before Super Tuesday primaries that could cement his domination of the Republican presidential race.

near the fence the suspects

Officers said after the chase
and arrest of Ashley, they recovered a jacket with the stolen
handgun.
The report said the handgun
was an agency-issued firearm
that was stolen from Putnam
County Sheriff’s Office corrections officer Michael Pinner.
Sheriff’s Office Capt. Joe
Wells said the firearm was stolen out of Pinner’s unlocked
vehicle.
A sheriff’s office report said
the firearm was stolen sometime between Jan. 12 and 14.
Wells said the incident triggered an internal investigation.
“(Pinner) was found in violation of policy because the vehicle was unlocked,” Wells said.
Wells said Pinner served a
two-day suspension, six months
disciplinary probation and a
written reprimand that would
stay in his permanent file.
Wells said there were no
other reports of Pinner, an
employee with the sheriff’s
office since 2004, mishandling
firearms.
Wells said Pinner is a sergeant at the Putnam County
Jail and has six previous disciplinary actions with suspensions totaling 128 hours.
Wells said because the firearm was recovered, the investigation will reopen to determine
if Ashley stole the handgun or if
he acquired it later.

Revolutionary War-era shipwreck
artifacts form new exhibit
Artifacts from a shipwreck dating back to the American
Revolutionary War found off the coast of St. Augustine are helping tell the story of life 230 years ago.
A new exhibit at the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Maritime
Museum called “Wrecked!” will display artifacts collected from a
ship evacuated by British war refugees in 1782.
The British loyalists were seeking a new life in St. Augustine
when their ship sank, leaving behind hundreds of items including muskets, the ship’s bell, cookware and other items from
everyday life.
The wreck was discovered in 2009. The exhibit opens May 5.

3 girls charged with putting
red pepper in teacher’s soda
Three 12-year-old girls are facing charges after they allegedly
poured red pepper into a middle school teacher’s soft drink.
The three girls were arrested Friday night.
Volusia County sheriff’s spokesman Gary Davidson said one
of the girls was angry because teacher Jayne Morgan disciplined
her Monday. The next day, she brought the crushed red pepper
from home and grabbed Morgan’s open can of soda.
Davidson said a second girl poured the pepper into the can
while the third girl distracted Morgan.
When Morgan took a drink, she began choking and experienced shortness of breath. She discovered the pepper flakes
when she poured the soda into a clear cup.

funding for the number of fulltime-equivalent students.
Because of this, schools are
subject to state evaluations
and students must take standardized tests.
While the local school district is responsible for oversight of charter schools’ finances, it has no hand in daily operation. School founders, usually
a nonprofit organization, determine daily operation and curriculums.
According to a recent
Associated Press analysis,
charter schools received more
than $760 million from state
taxpayers since 2000, including
schools in 30 districts that are
now closed for various reasons.
A November 2014 education
department document lists 282
closed charter schools since
1998. The taxpayer money that
once funded the closed schools
would not be recovered.
While school districts,
including Putnam County
School District, and taxpayers
are collectively asking for more
charter school oversight,
Putnam is currently 3-for-3 on
establishing successful charter
schools.
Putnam Academy of Arts
and Sciences opened in 2012,
offering sixth and seventh
grades. The founding members
included Palatka High School
teachers Elisabeth Virnstein,
Diana Lotta, Rhona Scoville,
Joyce Baron and Carla Aycock.
“The founding teachers were
concerned with the fact that
many students were ill-prepared for high school,” principal Curtis Ellis said. “The sole
purpose of Putnam Academy is
to adequately prepare middle
school students for high school
and beyond.”
Putnam EDGE High School

Administrator Lisa Parsons, 19
Putnam leaders visited a New
Tech school in Texas in 2010
and decided to work toward
creating a project-based learning environment with real
world standards.
“Students and parents are
happy,” Parsons said of
EDGE’s success. “We will continue to strive to improve on
instructional practices that
will increase student performance.”
EDGE hopes to expand to its
own building before the 20162017 school year, as the other
charter schools have already
done. If the expansion is successful, Putnam County will
have its first class of high
school graduates from a charter school.
A Florida woman said an e-cigarette exploded as she took a
puff, knocking her teeth loose and catching her rental car on
fire.
Cassandra Koziol said she parked her car outside a friend’s
house Thursday night to use the e-cigarette and charge her car.
She said when she pressed the device’s button, it exploded, loosening her teeth and flying from her hand.
Covered in blood, she ran into the house and asked her friends
to call 911. When they went outside, the car was engulfed in
flames.

Battle back from tough
losses to qualify
MARK BLUMENTHAL
T
he top sports stories in another Weekend That Was:
5. In a highly unusual
trade, Eric Staal, the face of
the Carolina Hurricanes as center and
captain, is traded on Sunday to the
New York Rangers, bringing him
together with younger brother Mark
after leaving his brother Jordan, who
was with the Hurricanes.
4. Adam Scott holds off Sergio
Garcia by a stroke to win the Honda
Classic in Palm Beach Gardens, his
first PGA Tour win since May 2014.
3. It’s a big weekend for college
basketball upsets as No. 3
Oklahoma, No. 9 Arizona and No. 10
Maryland lose on Saturday, then No. 5
Xavier and No. 8 Iowa fall on Sunday.
2. Jimmie Johnson captures the
checkered flag at the NASCAR Sprint
Cup Folds Of Honor Quik Trip 500, at
the Atlanta Motor Speedway on
Sunday. It is his 76th career victory,
tying him with Dale Earnhardt for
fifth all-time.
1. In arguably the best NBA
game of the year, Stephen Curry, en
route to a second straight NBA Most
Valuable Player, drills a 32-footer
with less than a second to go in overtime to finish with 46 points – 36 of
which come on his 12 3-point field
goals – to lift the Golden State
Warriors to a 121-118 overtime win
over the host Oklahoma City Thunder
on Saturday, improving to a leaguebest 53-5.
Our topic of discussion: 1. A memorable back-and-forth game.
Simply stated, it would be hard to
top what was seen by millions on television and live in Oklahoma City on
Saturday night. On their home court,
coach Billy Donovan’s Thunder
pushed the Warriors as far they could
be pushed, had them beat late in regulation until a silly foul sent Andre
Iguodala to the free-throw line to hit
both free throws to tie it up, sending it
to overtime. Then with 33.9 seconds
left in the overtime, the Thunder held
a 118-115 lead when Klay Thompson
hit a layup, was fouled, and finished
the conventional three-point play to
tie things up.
When Russell Westbrook missed a
jumper at the other end, Iguodala
rebounded and got the ball to Curry.
The Warriors had a timeout to call,
but Curry decided to take matters into
his own hands and like he’d done so
many times before this season, he
drilled a 32-footer with just six-tenths
of a second left to pull out the victory.
NBA players Tweeted out their
amazement. Thunder fans were left
with jaws dropped. And even the
Thunder bench knew the moment
Curry let the ball leave his hands from
really far out behind the arc they were
about to fall behind for the last time.
It’s not that the Warriors are winning games at a record pace. They are
53-5 and looking to knock off the 72-10
mark the Chicago Bulls established in
the 1996-97 season as the best in
league history. It’s the way they are
doing it with each player taking a role
and helping their mates in case someone has a bad day.
In the middle of that is the soon-tobe 28-year-old Curry, the son of former
NBA sharpshooter Dell Curry, and
who first made a name for himself by
nearly shooting Davidson in to the
2008 NCAA Final Four before eventual champion Kansas sent them home
in the Elite 8. Curry was MVP last
year, and unless he develops a
Superman-like kryptonite issue, he’s
going to win for the second straight
year.

Tenacious twins first Ram wrestlers to state
Palatka Daily News
Each positioned for a breakdown,
Lance and Logan Hastings persevered on a breakthrough weekend
for Interlachen wrestling.
Lance Hastings lost his first
match, but came back to win the
rest for third place in the 195pound weight class in the Region
2-1A meet at Eastern Florida State
College in Titusville. Logan
bounced back from a semifinal loss
to finish fourth in the 182-pound
class.
Thus the twins became the first
Rams to qualify for state since
Interlachen revived its wrestling
program five years ago. The tournament is March 4-5 at the Silver
Spurs Rodeo Arena in Kissimmee.
Seeded first as a district champion, Lance Hastings (41-4) drew a
first-round bye that might have
and pinned his next man before losing
to a Lake Highland Prep wrestler in
the third round. He then worked his
way back through the consolation
rounds with a 4-3 win and a pinfall.
Interlachen placed 14th out of 29
teams on the strength of the twins’
performances. The Rams had two
other competitors – 132-pound sophomore Cade Mason and 170-pound
freshman Julian Rivera – and while
both went 0-2, Borgus said both
turned in fine performances.
Palatka sent more wrestlers to the
2-1A meet but failed to get any of
them to state, finishing 18th in the
team standings.

team has found its way to a 19-4 record
entering conference play, largely because
of its ability to find a way when down to
its last at-bat.
One could argue that East Georgia State
College reliever Payton Phillips found the way for
the Vikings with a bases-loaded walk in the bottom of the seventh on Saturday, but the bottom
line was a 4-3 victory at Tindall Field, their second on a day that began with an 8-0 defeat of the
Rollins College junior varsity.
The one-out walk to Omar Villaman brought
home pinch-runner Jordan Kennedy for St.
Johns’ sixth win in its final at-bat over the last
three weeks. The Vikings trailed 3-0 going to the
bottom of the sixth when Villaman drew a leadoff
walk and came around as Wes Weeks lined a 3-1
pitch out to left center to make it a one-run game.
It was only the third hit of the day off Bobcats
starter Cole Pittman.
They turned to Phillips (2-1) to close the door in
the seventh and he hit Hunter Alexander with
his first pitch. Harlan Harris drew a one-out walk
and pinch-hitter Nick Koslowski lined a single to
right, scoring Alexander and leaving runners on
the corners. An intentional walk to Cole Perry
loaded the bases, then Phillips was high to on a
3-1 pitch Villaman to score Kennedy, who was
running for Harris.
The win was as tough as SJR State coach Ross
Jones expected it to be with Pittman going for
East Georgia.

B SECTION
GAINESVILLE — A February
freefall has Florida on the verge of
more March sadness.
The Gators
have lost three in
TONIGHT
a row for the first
time in more
Kentucky
than a year and
at Florida,
are on the verge
ESPN, 7:00
of playing themselves out of the
N C A A
Tournament for the second straight
season.
Although coach Mike White’s team
can always win the Southeastern
Conference Tournament next week in
Nashville and lock up an automatic
berth in the 68-team NCAA field, no
one who has seen the Gators (17-12,
8-8 SEC) struggle down the stretch
would even consider that a realistic
possibility.
So Florida’s best bet at bolstering
its NCAA Tournament resume comes
tonight against No. 22 Kentucky (218, 11-5). It’s Florida’s home finale as
well as Senior Night for leading scorer Dorian Finney-Smith.
More importantly, it’s a chance for
the Gators to get back on the winning
track after a futile February.
“It’s huge,” White said Monday.
“We’ve squandered some opportunities, and this is one of the last few
we’ll have. Obviously, this is a big, big
opportunity for our guys to overcome
some mistakes and failures. It’ll be a
very, very difficult game to win, but if
we play very well — we’re at home —
we should have our chances.”
Indeed, the Gators are 12-3 in the
O’Connell Center this season, but
have lost two in a row there. So even
home-court advantage in Gainesville
is not quite the sure thing is seemed
earlier this season.
More problematic for the Gators,
their once-reliable defense has been
shaky at best in recent weeks, culminating with giving up a combined 183
points the last two games.

PREP ROUNDUP
Panthers strike fast, hold on to collect fifth win
Palatka Daily News
On what would normally be a day
off, the Palatka High School baseball team went right to work on
Saturday.
Five of the first six Panthers singled, leading to three runs in the
first inning of a 5-4 victory at
Brooksville Hernando, completing a
3-0 week.
Palatka added single runs in the
third and fourth innings and held on
to take a 5-1 record into tonight’s
District 5-5A game with P.K. Yonge
at the Azalea Bowl.
Brent Summers singled to start
Saturday’s nondistrict game and the
Panthers put together four straight
one-out hits – one each by Austin
Langston, Cody Mills, Josh Reynolds
and Clayton Faircloth.
It would be the beginning of a
2-for-4, two-RBI day for Langston.
Faircloth went 2-3 and J.C. Conner
added a single for Palatka.
“The guys played good,” said PHS
coach Alan Rick. “I was happy with
the game. It was good to go down to
the Tampa area and come out with a
win.”

BRADENTON — Jim Harbaugh
basked in the sun Monday, spending six hours on the practice field
with his Michigan Wolverines.
“It just flew by,” the coach said.
Then the players hit the beach.
Back home in Ann Arbor, Mich.,
it was cloudy and gray, temperatures were in the 40s and the locals
were preparing for snow.
Michigan held the first of four
scheduled practices Monday at the
IMG Academy under a blue sky
with feathery clouds that provided
pleasant cover from the sun. The
players worked out for four hours in
70-degree temperatures, with
about half the team going from 8
a.m. to noon and the rest working
from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The Wolverines’ trip is the latest
way Harbaugh is drawing attention for Michigan while tweaking
some opponents. Last year it was
an extensive tour of the south, holding satellite camps for prospects on
the campuses of high schools and
colleges. This year Harbaugh
turned signing day into an extravaganza, starring Tom Brady and
Derek Jeter.
The spring trip has drawn criticism from Southeastern Conference
Commissioner Greg Sankey and
Atlantic Coast Conference
Commissioner John Swofford
because it falls during spring break,
when players usually have off.
NCAA is in the process of trying to
find ways to give college athletes
more time away from their sports.
“It can certainly be asserted that
it’s inconsistent with some of the
conversations about time
demands,” Big 12 Commissioner
Bob Bowlsby, who is also the chairman of the new NCAA football
oversight committee, said recently
about Michigan’s week in Florida.
“Right now there’s no rule that prohibits that. My guess is there will
be a lot of conversation about it in
the coming months.”
Is Harbaugh concerned about
the backlash? “No … You got your
headline now?”
The coach also does not get all
the fuss about the Wolverines being
snowbirds while school is on break.
“I don’t know why,” he said. “Our
tennis team will be hitting balls
here next week.”

school that trains elite athletes
from all over the country, including
football players. The IMG football
team has 20 players who last week
were offered scholarships by
Tennessee.
Michigan cannot recruit while on
campus. The Wolverines are using
IMG’s field house as their headquarters this week. The building is
used by several IMG teams, but
football cleared out to make room
for Michigan— and to ensure no
inadvertent impermissible contact
is made.
“I don’t know that there is one,”
Harbaugh said when asked about
the possible recruiting advantages
of the trip.
Harbaugh has said practicing
during spring break gives his players extra time to focus on academics. They won’t be practicing during
midterms now. He also looks at it
as an opportunity for the players to
bond.
“You ever seen the movie
“Remember the Titans?” Check
that out,” Harbaugh said. “Take a
look at that. We’re going to watch it
tonight as team. Team building,
Team development. Getting to
know each other better.”

The rebuilding of Michigan
under Harbaugh seems to be way
ahead of schedule. The Wolverines
won 10 games last season, their
first under the former Michigan
quarterback. A few weeks ago,
Harbaugh signed one of the top
recruiting classes in the nation,
including top prospect Rashan
Gary, a defensive lineman from
New Jersey.
This spring Michigan needs to
work on finding a new starting
quarterback and replacing several
key players from one of the best
defenses in the country. Harbaugh
is also breaking in a new defensive
coordinator, Don Brown, whom he
hired away from Boston College.
This week in Florida, though,
won’t be all work for the Wolverines.
At least one more trip to the
beach is planned. There will be
bowling outings, mini-golf and
Ping-Pong tournaments. On
Wednesday, there is no practice
and the team is scheduled to attend
the Tigers-Pirates spring training
game. Harbaugh is set to coach first
base for an inning for the Tigers.
Maybe for the Pirates, too.
Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle
is a Michigan native.

BASEBALL
MLB toughens up on chew
AP Top 25 Basketball
No big fuss over football trip for Wolverines
By Ralph D. Russo
Strong start powers Panthers
Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholz spit some chew
into a bottle at his locker, then dipped into the
latest notice from baseball.
Big leaguers are now getting a written reminder that smokeless tobacco is banned at stadiums
in Boston, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
One-page letters are being put in clubhouse
stalls throughout spring training, where there is
no prohibition. The notes come jointly from
Major League Baseball and the players’ union.
So, will Buchholz quit?
“That’ll probably happen,” he said. “If you get
reprimanded for something, there comes a time
where you’re tired of paying fines for something
you don’t have to do or doesn’t make you any better.”
“You’ve got to obey the rules or there’s consequences to it. We’ll probably learn more about
that when we get up North,” he said at camp in
Fort Myers.
Washington Nationals manager Dusty Baker
was a big dipper for a long time. He’s cut back
over the years, but still might pop in a pinch
when games get tight.
“It’s a bad influence for the kids. Big time. I’ll
say that. But also they’re adults, too, at the
same time,” Baker said.
Andruw Jones joins Braves’ staff
ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves are bringing
back former 10-time Gold Glove center fielder
Andruw Jones as a special assistant to baseball
operations.
Jones already was with the team as a guest
instructor in spring training. Under the official
capacity, he will focus on working with Braves outfielders. Jones, a native of Curacao, also will assist
with the team’s international initiatives.
Chipper Jones also returned to the team this
year in a similar capacity.
Andruw Jones, a five-time NL All-Star, won his
string of Gold Gloves from 1998-2007. He set a
Braves franchise record with 51 homers in 2005.
The 38-year-old Jones played in Japan the last
two years before retiring. The team announced
last week Jones will be inducted into the Braves
Hall of Fame this summer.
GOLF
PGA veteran has heart attack
PALM BEACH GARDENS — Jason Bohn says
he wanted to go back to his room to take a shower before going to the hospital with chest pains
and didn’t realize he was having a major heart
attack until paramedics at the Honda Classic
put him on a stretcher and called for an ambulance.
“So it was kind of a scary moment for me,”
Bohn said Monday in an interview with
SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio. “I didn’t realize what
was happening. I just never thought at age 42 I’d
be having a heart attack to the degree that I had
one.”
Bohn figured the chest pains were from bronchitis and pneumonia. He made the cut on
Friday and then sought medical attention, and
before long he was in an ambulance on his way
to Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center.
He told SiriusXM that his heart is pumping at
a weak rate and suffered damage from the heart
attack. Doctors told him his left anterior
descending artery was 99 percent blocked. That’s
known as the “widow maker” because a heart
attack can lead to a sudden death.
In that respect, Bohn says he was lucky to be
alive.
“My doctors all have told me that had I passed
out or gone down on the golf course that they
really don’t think they would have had time to
get the proper blood thinners in me — and put
the stent in that they were able to do — in time,”
he said. “I got one hell of a mulligan. That’s all I
can say.”
COLLEGE BASKETBALL
Kansas back on top of poll
Kansas is back on top of the men’s college basketball poll by The Associated Press. Villanova
had been No. 1 the past three weeks.
The Jayhawks are 25-4 and were No. 1 for two
weeks in January. On Monday, they were a runaway choice, receiving 63 first-place votes from the
65-member national media panel.
Michigan State is 24-5 and was No. 1 for a season-best four weeks. The Spartans drew the other
two first-place votes.
Villanova lost to Xavier last week and fell two
spots to third. The Wildcats were followed in the
top 10 by Virginia, Xavier, Oklahoma, Miami,
North Carolina, Oregon and West Virginia. This is
Oregon’s first appearance in the top 10 this season.
California was ranked in three polls earlier this
season and is the week’s only newcomer at No. 25.
The Bears replace Notre Dame, which fell out from
23rd.

25 Lawless role
For Tuesday, March 1, 2016
You’ll need to show more discipline and courage if you want to
take advantage of what’s available
to you this year. Don’t leave anything to chance or rely on others
to take care of your responsibilities. If you pace your every move,
you will not be disappointed.
PISCES
(Feb. 20-March 20)
Say little and learn a lot. It’s in
your best interest to gather information and make a careful and
comprehensive assessment rather
than make assumptions. Don’t let
your emotions take charge.
ARIES
(March 21-April 19)
Play by the rules in order to
avoid interference. Use lessons
learned from experience to help
you cut through any red tape you
face. Trust your judgment.
TAURUS
(April 20-May 20)
Don’t let stubbornness stand in
your way. A day trip will present
an opportunity that will encourage
you to use your skills diversely.
Someone will disappoint you.

unique perspective. Taking a different approach to relationships,
responsibilities and whatever
task you are handed will impress
someone with clout.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
You will be able to outsmart
someone trying to horn in on
your plans. Improve your professional and personal life by initiating practical changes that will not
result in debt.
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 22)
A change in partnerships or
contractual arrangements will
be to your benefit. Express your
interest in helping the children or
elders in your life in exchange for
a small favor.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Initiate talks with people
you feel can contribute to something you are trying to master
or get up and running. Success
will depend on the team you pull
together.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Check out an opportunity to
delve into romance, adventure
or travel. A positive suggestion
to someone you love will bring
about changes that will improve
your life.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
You should be cautious when
discussing your domestic situation or making changes to it. You
are best off having a foolproof
plan in place before you try to
sway someone to your way of
thinking.
Dear Harriette: I have a friend
who is extremely bipolar. He admits
he has some mental issues and says
he is on medication, but I think he
needs more. He’ll have wild mood
swings, and I honestly cannot keep
up.
I know I have to be supportive of
my friend when he’s having a panic
attack, but I’m not licensed, and I
don’t know how to help. I am not a
medical professional, and I do not
know anyone else with the same
problems. I seem to have become
his go-to friend whenever he is
having a crisis. His girlfriend broke
up with him, and I have become his
impromptu counselor. I don’t want
to distance myself because of my
fear that he’ll do something drastic, but I really cannot be around
anxious, panicking energy all the
time. What should I do? — Not a

I want to go to the reunion,
but I don’t want to partake in any

Do I still attend the reunion? —
Reuniting Doesn’t Feel So Good,
New Mexico
Dear Reuniting Doesn’t Feel So
Good: The best thing you can do in
this situation is to offer forgiveness.
Start with forgiving yourself for
being so judgmental of your brother. Perhaps he took the stand he did
because he felt the man you were
marrying was bad for you. Maybe
he could have let you know differently, but his heart may have been
in the right place — looking out for
you. Forgive him for not supporting
you in the way you felt you needed.
Forgive each other for being distant
for so long. With a heart of forgiveness, you can go to the family
reunion feeling love and gratitude
to be able to see your whole family,
including your brother. Just give
him a hug and sincerely choose to
have a great time.

he refuses to get medical help, you
should tell him you have to back
away from him for now. Distancing
yourself, as other loved ones have
done, may help him to go to the
professional who really can help
him.
Dear Harriette: This weekend,
my family is having a reunion. I’m
excited to see my extended family and all my cousins. However,
I agreed to go before I found out
some very important information.
My brother is also attending this
reunion.
Six years ago, my brother didn’t
respect my relationship at the time
and refused to walk me down the
aisle. Our dad had passed away two
years prior to my wedding, so I was
devastated at his rejection. Even
though the guy and I didn’t work
out in the end, I feel as though my
brother still could’ve supported me.
It’s been years since I’ve seen him,
and I’m not sure if I really want to. I
already promised my mom I would
be there. Plus, I know how much it
would mean to her to have both of
Eric Hoffer, a philosopher and
author who died in 1983, said,
“The hardest arithmetic to master
is that which enables us to count
our blessings.”
Many bridge players find the
hardest arithmetic to master is
counting winners and losers.
Since the numbers are not that
high, it shouldn’t be beyond anyone. It just requires a willingness
to spend the time to do it. But
anyone who succeeds becomes a
tough player immediately.
In today’s deal, how should
South play in seven spades after
West leads a trump?
The auction suggests that the
author was looking at all of the
cards! However, as I mentioned
yesterday, when you have a twosuiter and find a fit in the first
suit you bid, upgrade your hand.
Here, South should see the slam
potential if North has both redsuit aces. But as Blackwood
will not help, South starts with a
four-club control-bid. Then, after
three more control-bids confirm
that North does have those two
aces, South leaps majestically to
the grand slam.
West, anticipating declarer’s
need of ruffing winners, sensibly
starts with a trump. (South must
have a club void.)
Declarer has six side-suit winners (five hearts and one diamond), so needs seven trump
tricks: four winners on the board
and three club ruffs in his hand.
South takes the first trick on
the board and ruffs a club high.
He continues with a heart to the
ace, another club ruff high, a
diamond to the ace, and a third
club ruff high. Then he draws
trumps and claims. It is a textbook dummy reversal.

2-2 weekend for St. Johns softball team at Dodgertown
The St. Johns River State College
softball team went 2-2 during its
weekend at the Vero Beach
Invitational at the Dodgertown
Complex.
On Saturday, the Vikings outlasted Florence-Darlington of South
Carolina, 11-6, before losing in nine
innings to Florida SouthWestern

“He gave up four hits in
seven starts. We knew they
were going to pitch him. He
pitched his tail off,” said Jones,
whose club begins its bid for its
fourth straight Mid-Florida
Conference championship
Wednesday night with a visit
from Seminole State. “That
was a great guy to see and a
great game to be in right before
conference.”
Pittman didn’t allow a hit
until Weeks’ one-out single in
the fourth.
The Vikings got five shutout
innings from Hunter Jones,
the coach’s son, who struck out
five and walked none in his
strongest start of the season.

The effort was so amiss
against Vanderbilt and LSU
that White held a defense-only
practice Sunday.
“The emphasis had probably
moved toward offense too
much,” White said. “We’ve
spent an inordinate amount of
time shooting free throws, running dry offense by shooting a
ton of jump shots, individual
offense, skill development. … I
guess it’s always a balancing
act, and we’ve got to get back
to defending at a high level to
give ourselves a chance.”
Compounding Florida’s
issues, guards Chris Chiozza
Blumenthal
were taken down by top-notch Indian
River State College, 9-0, before
bouncing back to beat Polk State, 6-1,
to improve to 15-8.
“We faced some better pitching,”
Vikings coach Jill Semento said. “We
found some things we need to work
on, but we still hit other teams’ pitching. I still have a lot of hope going
into our conference season. There’s a
lot of consistency in our lineup.

his first save.
n Peniel Baptist Academy
came up with two runs to get
within one in the bottom of the
sixth, but left the tying run at
second and couldn’t get anything going in the seventh
inning of an 8-7, District 3-2A
loss to Warner Christian at
the Francis Youth Complex.
Bobcats had a 3-0 lead before
closer Tyler Carr could get out
of the inning. Carr (4-0) got the
win with a scoreless seventh.
“Hunter pitched great. He
deserved better than a no-decision,” coach Jones said. “Their
first four hits were just bleeders. This is a start he needed
before conference.”
Dalton Whitaker (1-2),
Kennedy and Andrew Vaccacio
combined on a two-hit shutout
of the Rollins JV, striking out
eight and walking none in a
seven-inning game.
Showing signs of emerging
from a slump, Alexander homered, doubled and had three
RBI to lead a 10-hit offense.

and KeVaughn Allen have hit
huge slumps.
Chiozza has reached double
figures just once in the last
seven games, and Allen is
shooting a measly 22.9 percent
from 3-point range in
February. Throw in the inconsistencies of Devin Robinson,
Kasey Hill and Justin Leon,
and the Gators have nothing to
hang their hat on at this point
in the season.
The Gators could have more
control of their postseason fate,
but they lost games in
February to Kentucky,
Alabama, South Carolina,
Vanderbilt and LSU. Florida’s

the NCAA Tournament field —
suffered, too, falling to No. 46.
but if it works, who are we to
judge?
Curry is averaging 30.6
points a game and Thompson,
also the son of a former NBA
standout, Mychal Thompson, is
to the Warriors what Scottie
Pippen was to the Bulls – a
complement, in this case to
Curry.
The Thunder will be back
and around for the postseason.
And quietly, the San Antonio
Spurs are having the greatest
season in their franchise history at 50-9. However, no matter
what the Spurs do, it’s being
dwarfed by this high-flying circus act that’s going to be awfully tough to stop come the NBA
Western Conference finals.
Whoever comes out of the
West will be favored to win it
all.
But judging by that amazing
comeback Saturday night on
national TV in Oklahoma City,
the Warriors are a team you
can’t hold down easily.
That’s because the best player in the league is awfully tough
to stop.
Curry is the must-see player
in the league these days. Not
LeBron. Not Kevin Duran. Not
Westbrook. Heck, not even
Kobe in what is his final season.
It is all about Curry. On
Thursday night in Orlando, he
put in 51 points. Curry has
already broken his own record
for 3-pointers made in a season,
which he set last year at 286.
He’s got 288 and the scary part
... he’s got 24 games left! At his
current 5.1 3-point field goals
made per game, we may be
looking at him putting the
record so out of reach that we
will stand in amazement.
And all this “hatin’” being
done by the legendary Oscar
Robertson is out of playing in a
far different era. There were no
3-point lines in the 1960s and
‘70s and in that era, it was the
big men like Bill Russell, Wilt
Chamberlain and Lew Alcindor
(Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) who
dominated the game. You
