Motorcyclist dies in crash

A 50-year-old Her-nando man was killed early Sunday morning in a single-vehicle crash, according to a Florida Highway Patrol report.

The man, whose name was not released per new FHP policies, was travel-ing westbound on West Pine Ridge Boulevard on a motorcycle, west of North Elkcam Boulevard when he lost control of the motorcycle.

As a result, the man traveled off the roadway and into the center grass median, the report stated. Once in the median, the man collided with a tree, ejecting the rider who suf-fered fatal injuries at the scene of the crash.

Virtual prayer breakfast setThe Citrus County YMCA

will host a virtual prayer breakfast at 7 a.m. Friday, May 8, on Facebook.com/Citrus YMCA.

A live community breakfast had been planned for May, but the Y postponed that event because of the COVID-19 virus. It will be held later in the year at a yet-to-be-announced date.

The virtual prayer breakfast has been planned because “during times of difficulties and uncertainty, two things that are comforting to turn to are family and faith.” The Y will celebrate both during the digital event on Facebook.

Prayers will be offered by Citrus County Fire Chief Craig Stevens; Dr. Robert Brockett; school board member Doug Dodd, and, Rev. Ray Cor-tese of Seven Rivers Presbyterian Church.

The live event will hap-pen at 7 a.m. Friday. A re-cording of the event will be available on the YMCA and Chronicle websites.

Nursing home target of lawsuitFred Hiers

Staff writer

A Crystal River long-term care facility is the target of a wrongful death lawsuit in which Crystal Gem Manor Assisted Living is accused of allowing a former resident to be

beaten, cut and tortured for over a week until his death in March 2019.

“It’s the most egregious case of abuse that I’ve ever seen in my 40 years of medical mal-practice cases,” said David Best, the attorney representing Phillip J. Gordon, the represen-tative of Harvey James Gordon’s estate.

Phillip Gordon is asking for more than $5 million in the lawsuit, which names the long-term care facility, its affiliates, owners, administrator Samantha Lynn Dulaney, and one employee, as defendants in the lawsuit.

“They (Crystal Gem Manor Assisted Living) were on notice that (Gordon) was being at-tacked and did nothing about it,” Best told the Chronicle.

Lawsuit claims wrongful death, torture of patient

Local church holds drive-thru communion

St. Timothy Lutheran Church member Patti Cyr bows her head and folds her hands in prayer with Pastor Joanie Holden on Sunday morning outside of the church in Crystal River. The church offered a drive-through communion for their parishioners as well as any others in the community who felt compelled to take part in the service. Cry said that she and her husband were married in the church in 1985 and said she feels communion is deeply important to her beliefs. “We all have to keep our faith, and that’s what we do,” she said. The drive-through communion concept is one way this church, and others around the nation, are practicing distance worshiping during the global pandemic.

Pastor Joanie Holden speaks with one of her church members Sunday morning during the St. Timothy Lutheran Church’s drive-through communion service. The church offered communion between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. to any who wanted to take part. “Our church believes this is a gift of love,” Pastor Holden said referring to communion as a gift from Christ. Those serving communion wore masks and kept safe distances from one another as they practice social distancing during a time of distance worshiping.

Deacon Frank Hofstetter holds a bowl of communion wafers Sunday as the St. Timothy Lutheran Church holds communion for church members outside of the church. In the Christian faith, the bread, in this case the wafers above, symbolizes the body of Christ. Wine, or in some churches grape juice, is used to symbolize the blood of Christ. Both the bread and wine are taken by those participating in communion.

Restaurants prepare to reopen with limits

MicHael d. BatesStaff writer

Morgan Sundberg is asking diners to be patient and understanding when two of her Crystal River restaurants open in-door dining Monday.

If folks are expecting a pre-virus ambi-ance, it won’t happen, especially with only 25% state-mandated capacity. That means it may take awhile to go inside and get a table. And there can’t be any standing at the door waiting for that table.

Sundberg said if most people follow the rules and respect the distancing and capacity rules, then the faster the state can progress to the next phase.

Sundberg owns Kane’s Cattle Co., The Loft Bar & Grill and Lollygaggers Sports

Pub & Grill. Kane’s, she said, will not be open inside just because the limited ca-pacity makes it difficult for a steakhouse.

But still, it’s a first step to getting restaurants back to normal and she ap-plauds Gov. Ron DeSantis for making this move.

“Be patient, be understanding but still be supportive,” Sundberg is asking patrons.

Lollygaggers will be limited to 30 seats and there will be no bar seating. Patrons will see more outdoor seating at The Loft simply because there’s enough room to do so, she said.

If folks are not comfortable going in-side, she recommends people still ad-here to the take-out and curbside service until capacity increases.

Task force plans path to post-pandemic recovery

JoHn HaugHeyThe Center Square

Gov. Ron DeSantis’ office Thursday published the Re-Open Task Force report, which lays out a three-phase “road map” for the state’s post-COVID-19 eco-nomic recovery.

DeSantis Wednesday announced phase one of the reopening would begin Monday to be followed by a se-quence of relaxed measures, but did not spell out spe-cific timelines or discuss what ensuing phases would look like in his “Safe. Smart. Step-by-Step” plan.

Thursday afternoon, the picture became clearer with the posting of task force’s 32-page report, gleaned from a week of teleconferences by four in-dustry groups. DeSantis does not have to follow the recommendations, but the plan will serve as a guide.

Phase two, according to the report, should begin after “a downward trajectory of the syndromic and epidemiology criteria while maintaining adequate health care capacity.”

See PLANS/Page A2

A primary metric will be the “positivity” of test re-sults. Rather than gauging progress by declining case numbers, as the Trump administration’s Opening Up America Again plan does, Florida will use de-clines in the percentage of positive test results as its metric.

Under phase two, “non-essential” travel can re-sume and employers should “encourage tele-working where practical” and plan “for employees to return to work in phases.” Other compo-nents include:

n Social gatherings: Avoid socializing in groups of more than 50 people “in circumstances that do not allow for appropriate so-cial distancing of at least 6 feet.”

n Employee screening: All employers should screen employees before entering workplaces for COVID-19 symptoms or influenza-like illness and, “where practical, take the temperature of each employee.”

n Local government meetings: Tele/video- conferencing is encour-aged but in-person

meetings can resume within social distancing protocols with no more than 50 in attendance.

n Bars: Bars can reopen at 50% capacity “with an emphasis on diminished standing room capacity and prioritizing outdoor service.”

The plan suggests own-ers space tables at least 6 feet apart; not allow cou-pling of tables or table groups of 10 or more; en-courage orders be taken by wait staff at tables rather than at the bar; clean, disinfect all sur-faces after each use.

n Restaurants: Restau-rants can operate at full outdoor capacity and 75% capacity inside, with a minimum of 6 feet sepa-rating parties

Menus, if laminated, should be cleaned after each use with single-use paper menus recommended.

“Avoid cafeteria-style dining arrangements,” the report states. “If salad bars or buffets are utilized, ef-forts to mitigate risk should include barriers to block virus spread.”

n Gyms: Gyms can oper-ate at 75% capacity and re-sume indoor group sessions/classes if they meet social distancing protocols.

n State parks/beaches: All state parks will be open for daytime use. Overnight accommoda-tions, pavilions, interpre-tive programs will remain closed. Large groups not permitted. Beaches “should be fully open.”

n Large venues: Movie

theaters, concert halls, auditoriums, bowling al-leys, arcades, playhouses and casinos can open under “strict social dis-tancing protocols” at 75% capacity.

n Sporting events/theme parks: Spectator capacity should be limited to 50% with strict social distancing. Theme parks “may consider re-opening with capacity limits, strict social distancing and proper measures to clean and disinfect,” the report suggests.

n Vacation rentals: Va-cation rentals should be allowed only for Florida residents to “prohibit rentals to persons travel-ing internationally or from a state or locality with a substantial community spread of COVID-19,” the report states.

The task force recom-mends 72 hours between guest check-ins to allow for cleaning and disinfect-ing of units.

n Personal services: Sa-lons, barber shops and nail salons should limit oc-cupancy to 75% and not allow customers to congre-gate in waiting areas.

All employees should wear face masks, cloth face coverings and other PPE, and businesses should encourage custom-ers to wear face masks or

cloth face coverings.Owners should remove

“frequent-touch items” such as magazines, newspapers.

n Retailers: Stores can

operate at 75% capacity with signage directing “flow of customers within the premises to promote social distancing.”

Hearing is one of our most important senses for a multitude of reasons. Our ability to hear acts as a gateway to connecting with the world that envelopes us every day; it empowers us to communicate with friends an d loved ones, and keeps us up-to-date with local and global events when listening to television, radio and streaming s ervices.

But during this uncertain and erratic time of rapidly evolving news coverage and anxiety-inducing he alth alerts, your ability to hear speech clearly becomes absolutely vital since it can affect the overall quality of h ealth care you receive.

Designated as an essential business, Audibel Hearing Centers throughout the Tampa Bay area will be o pen and available to serve the hearing impaired urgent care needs. To further help patients, Audibel will not be charg ing for hearing aid batteries, wax filters, hearing aid cleanings, hearing aid adjustments, hearing updates or hearing t ests.

The Medical Examiner’s March 12, 2019, report lists the cause of Gordon’s death as blunt force trauma due to assault and the man-ner of death as homicide.

The medical examiner’s report

lists in its autopsy of Gordon head trauma, hemorrhaging, several cuts, bruises and fractures as well as other age-related health issues, which contributed to the death, ac-cording to a copy of the report ob-tained by the Chronicle.

According to the lawsuit, Gordon was a resident of the assisted living facility between Feb. 22, 2019, and March 12, 2019.

When the Chronicle contacted the assisted living facility, a company employee said they did not want to comment.

A former employee of the facility is named in the lawsuit as having committed the injuries against Gor-don, but no arrests have been made in the case.

The State Attorney’s case into the death is still open.

As the county works to maintain social distancing, the Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Chil-dren, better known as WIC, remains open and ready to enroll people by phone or online.

“We want people to know that we are here for them during this difficult time,” said Juliann Velez, WIC Director with the Florida Department of Health in Citrus County. “People who have never consid-ered applying for WIC should because this program offers many benefits for families, especially those who have re-cently lost a job due to the pandemic.”

WIC, a federally funded nutrition pro-gram, works to help expectant and nurs-ing mothers, infants, babies and toddlers develop good eating habits as they learn to use the no-cost items provided on their monthly benefits. Its peer counselors en-courage and assist women who choose to breastfeed their babies by providing ed-ucation, support and resources.

Clients have access to many commu-nity resources, including health screen-ings, immunization referrals, dental referrals, substance abuse referrals, and various other social services.

If you’re pregnant, a caregiver, or a mom with a child 5 and younger, you can

get this personalized support for you and your family. This includes moms, dads, foster parents, guardians, pregnant women, grandparents and step-parents. Caregivers with a low to medium income and those who are part of other programs such as foster care, medical assistance, or SNAP are eligible.

The program’s income limits are more generous than for those in other assistance programs: for example, an expectant mom counts as two people in determining household size. A family of three expecting a baby can earn up to $47,638 a year and still receive WIC benefits. (The program is exempt from the Federal Public Charge rule that affects self-sufficiency, which went into effect Feb. 24.)

“Everyone reacts differently to stress, especially children, so it’s really import-ant for parents to be able to provide healthy meals for their families right now,” Velez said. “We know that nutrition is probably not the first thing on every-one’s mind, but we can help put nutri-tious food on your table, teach you how to stretch those food dollars and that alone is a huge benefit and may certainly bring you some peace of mind.”

To find out if you’re eligible, visit https://tinyurl.com/kbba27p. Next, call the WIC in Citrus County Program at 352-527-8490 or 352-726-5222.

EntErtainmEntGil Schwartz, aka humorist Stanley

Bing, has died at 68LOS ANGELES — Gil

Schwartz, the longtime CBS communications executive who wrote humorous novels and col-umns under the pen name Stan-ley Bing, has died. He was 68.

CBS representatives said Sunday that Schwartz died Sat-urday at his home in Santa Mon-ica, California. His death, they said, was unexpected, but due to natural causes.

Schwartz had a distinguished nearly 40-year career in corpo-rate America with CBS, Viacom and Westinghouse Broadcast-ing. He retired in 2018 from his post as senior executive vice president and chief communica-tions officer of CBS Corporation.

But unlike most of his peers, Schwartz had a once-secret and then public side career as a lauded humorist and writer of 13 books who satirized the busi-ness world he was part of. Under the pseudonym Stanley Bing, Schwartz wrote a column in Es-quire for 13 years and then in Fortune. One, “Executive Sum-mary: Stanley Bing,” from 1991, describes an unwelcome 40th birthday in the style of a corpo-rate presentation.

“You’ll have to excuse me if I sound a little morose. I am mo-rose,” he wrote. “This corpora-tion recently celebrated its fortieth anniversary of opera-tions. Quite a few parties were held in its honor, and they suc-ceeded in getting this speaker somewhat depressed in the way that only enforced merriment truly can.”

Although he was able to hold the dual identities in secret for a while, in the 1990s, it became “the most poorly held secret in

the media business.”“Bing’s” books included “Crazy

Bosses: Spotting Them, Serving Them, Surviving Them,” “You Look Nice Today,“ ”Lloyd: What Happened,” and “Immortal Life: A Soon to Be True Story.”

Born in New York City in 1951, Schwartz studied theater arts and English at Brandeis Univer-sity. He was a renaissance man: A poet, playwright, actor, guitarist and photographer of birds, food

and travel. Schwartz is survived by his

wife of 14 years, Laura Svienty, two children, two step children and two grandchildren. The statement says a memorial ser-vice will take place in the fall. In lieu of flowers, the family re-quests anyone seeking to honor Schwartz donate to lafoodbank.org, foodbanknyc.org or sfm-foodbank.org.

CBS representatives said Sunday that Schwartz died Saturday, at his home in Santa Monica, Calif. His death was unexpected but due to natural causes.

LifeSouth still needs more donations

Forced cancelations of blood drives due to COVID-19 continue to negatively impact the blood supply, which endangers those needing lifesaving blood transfusions. LifeSouth, along with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, urges donors to donate blood now and needs organizations to host blood drives. Blood do-nors are needed every day, and anyone who is in good health is encouraged to donate.

“We have already seen a significant de-crease in donations as the outbreak pro-gresses and are facing a critical public health risk if the blood supply continues to decline,” said LifeSouth’s Vice President of Medical Services Dr. Chris Lough.

The coronavirus does not pose any known risk to blood donors during the donation pro-cess or from attending blood drives.

For more information about hosting a blood drive or to find out where you can give blood, visit lifesouth.org or call 888-795-2707.

CCSO activates Citizen Information Lines

In an effort to keep Citrus County residents informed on the impacts of COVID-19 in the community, the Citrus County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) has activated a Citizen Information Line (CIL) in partnership with the Florida De-partment of Health in Citrus County.

This line is designed to answer questions and concerns specific to Citrus County. All cit-izens with medical questions are still urged to

contact the Florida Department of Health in Citrus County at 352-527-0068. Citizens with general COVID-19 questions not specific to Citrus County should contact the COVID-19 hotline at 866-779-6121.

If you have Citrus County specific ques-tions, contact the CIL at 352-249-2775 where an operator will assist you from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Many general COVID-19 questions can be answered by visiting www.FloridaHealth COVID19.gov.

Those having trouble ac-cessing the online unem-ployment insurance system can pick up a paper application starting today.

The applications will be available for curbside pickup Monday to Friday at the CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion at 683 S. Adolph Point in Lecanto.

The forms will be sup-plied from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each weekday.

Unemployment insur-ance provides temporary wage benefits to those who have lost their jobs be-cause of the coronavirus. The program, run by the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (FDEO), has experienced recent difficulties keeping up with unprecedented demand.

Last week, the Career-Source Florida network was authorized to assist

FDEO in order to help al-leviate the application log jam.

According to Kathleen Woodring, CareerSource CLM’s executive vice pres-ident, the paper applica-tions are an alternative for those having trouble com-pleting the online application.

She said applicants must mail the paper appli-cations to FDEO and that doing so could potentially take longer to process than online.

Those planning to pick up paper applications are urged to drive as close as possible to the center en-trance and have one per-son per vehicle get out and pick up applications from the distribution box out-side the center.

The centers are not currently open to the public.

“We are mindful of the need to maintain social distancing. If there is a

line of vehicles, please stay in your car until you can pull up,” Woodring said. “You may take as many applications as you need, if you are getting them for other members of your household. We will restock as needed throughout the day until 3 p.m.”

They can also be down-loaded at www.career sourceclm.com and www.careersourcencfl.com.

For information, call 800-434-JOBS (5627).

Gov. Ron DeSantis last Wednesday announced a gradual re-opening of Florida businesses start-ing Monday in all Florida counties except Miami- Dade, Palm Beach and Broward counties, where the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are the hardest.

DeSantis’ executive order permits restaurants to open indoor seating at 25% capacity with 6-foot distancing between tables and parties no larger than 10.

It also allows for out-door seating with appro-priate social distancing.

The Chronicle called several restaurants at random Friday and visited their Facebook pages. Here’s what some will be doing Monday:

n Cracker’s Bar & Grill will open at noon for in-door dining. “Can’t wait to have y’all back with us!!” the restaurant’s Facebook page said.

n Coney Island Drive-Inn Crystal River will open at noon.

n Motor City Pasta Company in Inverness will have three outside ta-bles and 11 seats avail-able and two indoor tables with a maximum eight people allowed to dine-in.

n World Fusion in Le-canto will be open for din-ing at 25% occupancy. “We

miss seeing your faces, so come say hi!”

n Breakfast Station in Beverly Hills will open and have some outdoor seating. The locations in Homosassa and Crystal River will not open during phase one, ac-cording to their Facebook sites.

n Angelo’s Pizzeria and Ristorante in Inverness will offer outdoor and in-door seating but, because of only a few tables open, the restaurant asks pa-trons to call first to get a spot.

Klyap has roots in the county

Citrus County currently has five candidates running in the 2020 elections for sheriff, four running as Republicans and one as No Party Affilia-tion (NPA). Unfortunately, the coronavirus has hampered all 2020 candidates from keeping the momentum up by getting out to talk person-to-person and raise campaign funds for their support. The Chronicle has printed several letters re-ceived from individuals show-ing their support for a candidate competing for sher-iff and I would like to share why I support Mike Klyap.

I like a candidate who knows my county. Mike has lived in Citrus County for the past 30-plus years. I like that when in a conversation with Mike Klyap, at some point, he will branch off with a story about someone or something that happened around the county back when he was working for the Crystal River Police Department or the Cit-rus County Sheriff ’s Office after the police department was dissolved. I like to hear stories like that of how this county use to be before I came here. He has first-hand knowledge of your neighbor-hood issues, how the streets are used as racetracks, how drugs move in and out of the county and he has mentored children who may have fallen through the cracks had no one taken an interest. He has watched the growth of this county and recognizes the challenges that will come with the extension of the Sun-coast Parkway.

Mike is passionate about our community and believes in the fair treatment of every-one. Please, go to Mike’s web-page, www.Klyapforsheriff.com and read about him. Ad-ditionally, all the candidates should have information about themselves that can be accessed on the Supervisor of Elections web site, www.vote citrus.com. I give my support to the only candidate who has lived in Citrus County for the past 30-plus years.

Commissioners wasted board’s timeDuring my childhood, my

father was the mayor of a small Midwest town for eight years. I was very surprised when he went for the second term with all the headaches he was forced to deal with, al-beit for $60 a month he wasn’t doing it for the money.

Later in my life I became friends with some of the peo-ple who worked under my dad while he was mayor, and several of the heads of de-partments told me a common tidbit. These people had worked under several mayors and they told me my dad was the best of all of them. I know my dad was a great guy, but I had to ask why was he the best? I received the same an-swer from them all “He let us do our job.” He recognized their expertise.

Why did the Board of County Commissioners waste the time of busy people and the money of the taxpayers to

assemble an advisory group only to disregard their recom-mendations? Please help me understand; bet you cant! That being the case, an audit may be in the offing to see just how much else was wasted on previous BOCC- assembled advisory boards. If I were a betting man, I’d bet we’d all be astonished, mad and disappointed in the audit results. God bless and be safe.

Commissioners made the right decisionI agree with Ron Kitchen,

Jimmie T. Smith and Scott Carnahan with reopening parks and trails without re-strictions. Sweden followed a laissez-faire attitude with so-cial distancing but did not shut down the economy. There was no significant in-crease in cases nor was the hospital system overwealmed.

I am a retired microbiolo-gist and knowledgeable on epidemiology and infectious diseases. Sunlight (UV light) works well with killing the virus. Back to Kitchen’s deci-sion with no restrictions. We are Americans in a free coun-try. We can make our own de-cisions as to whether to frequent these parks or to stay home. We took our dog Saturday on the coastal trails. I saw people social distancing and not in large groups. Most people use common sense. This country was built on freedom to decide. I applaud these commissioners for mak-ing the right decision. No lives were put at risk. If you felt his decision was wrong — stay home. That is your right.

Richard TomlinsonCrystal River

We can learn from Sweden

Much has been said re-cently about the success of Sweden defeating COVID-19. Friends, neighbors and rela-tives seem to be waiting for Sweden to show us the way using herd immunity to fight the pandemic.

What is herd immunity? On an MIT website, I found

a definition that appeared to be comprehensive. To para-phrase, it is where most

vulnerable people are pro-tected and everyone else con-tinues with their life as if nothing was happening. Work, school, shopping, eating out, even movies and sports games keep the economy afloat. The technical paper also ex-plained that as more people are infected and survive, fewer are available for infec-tion by the virus. The whole process hinges on the belief that the virus cannot infect the same person twice. This group of survivors represents the herd that is now immune. The technical paper did not specify what percentage of the total population had to be included in the herd to shut down the pandemic.

The next question is, what if we tried it? There are roughly 330,000,000 people in the U.S. Sweden has only 10,183, 000. Sweden recorded 19,621 cases with 2,355 deaths, or 12% of the Swedes that were infected, died. Americans had 981,246 peo-ple infected with 55,268 deaths, or 5.63% of the in-fected died. Had we used the Swedish program with its 12% fatality rate, we would have had 117, 749 deaths. That is 62,481 more than the 55,268 that we had. What cost, in lives, do Americans feel is ac-ceptable? Can the count dou-ble or triple again?

Why is their percentage of fatalities more than double ours? Their plan was to pro-tect the vulnerable. Only the healthy were allowed to con-tract the virus. Could it be that there were many more who are vulnerable, like chil-dren or middle-aged parents? Apparently, many more than they realized were.

Even though I don’t think we should emulate them, we may learn from them. If they can show conclusively that COVID-19 cannot infect the same person twice and that this immunity can be positively identified by antibodies we would be much further along in our battle. It would mean the U.S. has a force of 925,978 survivors, with immunity, that could test, trace or just go back to work with minimal concerns of spreading the virus.

Can our government use this information or just ignore it?

R.M. SprottCrystal River

A citizen’s value to gov’t

What is the value of a citizen to its government? It seems in these tense times, when the danger of possible infection and death remain, a citizen’s worth is that said person is will-ing to risk life and health to go back to work before it has been declared safe to do so. What a spoiled people we have become ... unwilling to spend time at home or not engage in the frivo-lous activities that make up our lives. We seem willing to risk our own life and, at the same time, risk the lives of those with whom we come in contact. I have always believed that any life makes one more than being just another cog in the indus-trial machine. I still believe that; I wish our government leaders valued us that much.

SHAMEFUL SYSTEM

State’s jobless response an abject failure

Just as no one can pre-dict a sudden avalanche or prevent the devasta-

tion in its path, no one could have predicted the sudden unemployment avalanche or prevented the fi-nancial devasta-tion triggered by the coronavirus.

As such, it’s not surprising that many state unem-ployment systems across the nation have been strug-gling under the crush of a mas-sive number of new jobless claims. Sadly, the pandemic’s unemployment crush has bared Florida’s shameful unemployment sys-tem as an abject failure for the hundreds of thousands of jobless Floridians hanging by a financial thread, particu-larly those with the greatest need for assistance and the least understanding of how the system works.

The roots of the failure reach back to former Gov. Rick Scott. Under his direc-tion, Florida’s unemploy-ment sys tem was restructured to encourage job searches, not to facilitate jobless claims. Consequently, Byzantine claims require-ments, a reduction in benefit weeks, a miserly benefits payment, restricted benefits eligibility, and an online site as the sole access portal were put in place.

Saddled with an unem-ployment system restruc-tured to fail, Florida’s response to the avalanche of jobless claims has been a total debacle.

At the heart of the debacle is the online CONNECT ac-cess portal for jobless claims. Ever since it was launched in 2013, the online site has been plagued with capacity issues, technical glitches, computer crashes, recurring password resets and unresponsive phone help lines. Addition-ally, a damning report by state auditors in 2019 found that neither the Scott nor De-Santis administrations made

any serious effort to correct the website’s foundational problems that were detailed in previous audits going back to 2015.

The response by the DeSantis adminis-tration to the claims avalanche has exacerbated C O N N E C T ’ s dysfunction.

Despite the state’s $4 billion unemployment trust fund, ex-panded jobless benefits called for by the CARES Act have not been im-plemented. The

untimely and piecemeal grant-ing of policy waivers to hurdle the unemployment system’s Byzantine barriers have served to make claims pro-cessing more confusing. And, mixed messaging has raised expectations of claimants, only to dash them.

The administration’s most damning mixed jobless mes-sage occurred last Monday when Gov. DeSantis de-clared, “If you had a job and lost it, obviously you’re eligi-ble.” Obviously not! On the very same day, more than 260,000 Floridians, or 40% of the claims processed, re-ceived the heartbreaking news that they had been deemed ineligible without any explanation offered.

The coronavirous has ex-tracted an enormously heavy financial toll on Florida’s workforce that is the heart and soul of our state’s economy.

Each worker who has lost a job to the pandemic’s economic devastation deserves a com-passionate unemployment sys-tem that delivers hope and a helping hand — not a debacle that delivers despair and a cal-lous kick when down.

Once this pandemic storm is weathered, Gov. DeSantis needs to make the retooling of Florida’s failed unemploy-ment system a top adminis-tration priority so that the past shameful indifference to the plight of the unemployed and the current claims deba-cle are never repeated.

THE ISSUE:Florida’s

unemployment claims debacle.

OUR OPINION:Help for the

unemployed is too little, too late, and too flawed.

About that 6-foot distanceThis is in response to the people that keep calling in and complaining

— for some unknown reason, except they have noth-ing better to do — about the 6-foot social-distancing rule of families and couples in supermarkets. Do you think it is reasonable? No, it is not reasonable. It is to-tally unreasonable for married couples, spouses, peo-ple who sleep in the same bed to stay 6 feet apart while you’re shopping. And as far as the kids are con-cerned, they’re in the same household. We have liber-ties. Don’t fall into stupidity, Citrus County. I swear, some of you amongst us are just plain dolts — not adults, just dolts. God bless you. Wake up. Enjoy life. Thank God you’re alive.

Hot Corner: BOCC

n I expect the next meeting of the county commissioners will be in person, no masks, no screenings, no useless social distancing and may God have mercy on their souls.

n After reading Wednesday, April 29’s paper today, I cannot honestly believe how ignorant some of our county commissioners are to not believe the pandemic is real, that the govern-ment has no responsibility to help people navi-gate on how to stay healthy and that some of them honestly believe that the figures that are being given on the death count by the medical people are wrong and instead are quoting figures out of a business magazine. It sickens me to think that I live in this county, that I live and look at these people who are supposed to be guiding us and doing what’s best for the people of this county and what a sad state that they are sitting there behind that bench being quite ignorant.

n I am calling about an article in today’s

Chronicle, April 29, regarding our commission-ers. Commissioner Carnahan stated he would support the gradual reopening of parks, but then noted he was in Georgia over the weekend and sporting a new haircut from a barbershop that was allowed to reopen. Our governor’s or-ders are to stay at home. Why is Commissioner Carnahan leaving the state? And Commissioner Kitchen, asked by a reporter, following the meet-ing, if he is practicing social distancing, Kitchen refused to answer. “That’s my business,” he said, then reiterated his position that he does not speak with reporters. Hello, this is a closed com-missioner, not open to the public, reporting to reporters. It is a disgrace. Well, Commissioners Carnahan and Kitchen ... if they cannot hold the state mandates, they have no business on the Citrus County Commission Board. Stay safe, my friends.

WASHINGTON — Anx-ious for an economic re-covery, President Donald Trump fielded Americans’ questions about decisions by some states to allow nonessential businesses to reopen while other states are on virtual lockdown due to the coronavirus.

After more than a month of being cooped up at the White House, Trump re-turned from a weekend at the Camp David presiden-tial retreat in Maryland and participated in a “vir-tual” town hall, hosted Sunday night by Fox News Channel, from inside the Lincoln Memorial. He pushed for an economic reopening, one his advis-ers believe will be essen-tial for his reelection chances this November.

“We have to get it back open safely but as quickly as possible,” Trump said.

The president acknowl-edged fear on both sides of the issue, some Americans worried about getting sick while others are con-cerned about losing jobs. Though the administra-tion’s handling of the pan-demic, particularly its ability to conduct wide-spread testing, has come under fierce scrutiny, the president defended the re-sponse and said the nation was ready to begin reopening.

“I’ll tell you one thing. We did the right thing and I really believe we saved a million and a half lives,” the president said. But he also broke with the assess-ment of his senior adviser and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, saying it was “too soon to say“ if the federal government was oversee-ing a “success story.”

Trump’s impatience also flashed. While noting that states would go at their own pace in return-ing to normal, with ones

harder hit by the coronavi-rus going slower, he said that “some states frankly I think aren’t going fast enough” and singled out Virginia, which has a Dem-ocratic governor and legis-lature. And he urged the nation’s schools and uni-versities to return to classes this fall.

But many public health experts believe that can-not be done safely until a vaccine is developed. Trump declared Sunday that he believed one could be available by year’s end although his own pan-demic task force has pred-icated it could be another 18 months.

Federal guidelines that encouraged people to stay at home and practice so-cial distancing expired late last week.

Debate continued over moves by governors to start reopening state econ-omies that tanked after shopping malls, salons and other nonessential

businesses were ordered closed in attempt to slow a virus that has killed more than 66,000 Americans, ac-cording to a tally of re-ported deaths by Johns Hopkins University.

The U.S. economy has suffered, shrinking at a 4.8% annual rate from Jan-uary through March, the government estimated last week. It was the sharpest quarterly drop since the 2008 financial crisis.

Roughly 30.3 million people have filed for un-employment aid in the six weeks since the outbreak forced employers to shut down and slash their work-forces. It was the worst string of layoffs on record.

Larry Kudlow, Trump’s top economic adviser, on Sunday predicted a “spec-tacular 2021” — with “the right set of policies” — on top of a rebound from July through December of this year. He said on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the administration would

“pause” to review the ef-fectiveness of trillions in economic relief spending before making any

decision on whether addi-tional aid is needed. House Speaker Nancy Pe-losi, D-Calif., said

Thursday that state and local governments are seeking up to $1 trillion for coronavirus costs,

CHICAGO — When Jesse Smith looks out at his Zoom audi-ence, he knows exactly what the crowd is going through.

The captain of the U.S. men’s water polo team is adjusting his training, too. He also misses playing alongside his friends.

One way Smith is dealing with the coronavirus pandemic is through virtual speaking engage-ments with water polo clubs and teams all over the country, passing along what he has learned during a couple decades in the water.

The 37-year-old Smith is one of several Olympic athletes who have been using digital avenues to help their sport during the shutdown. While Zoom sessions are a frequent choice, some ath-letes are offering training tips on Instagram and Olympic federa-tions are pitching in with newslet-ters and other web-based help.

“We’re all as athletes affected the same way,” Smith said. “Even though I’m a four-time Olympian, a silver medal (winner), training for my fifth Olympics, the captain of my team, the same thing is going on in my head as a 16-year-old that got their (season) can-celed, and I think that I have more tools available, so I’m try-ing to share that.”

Beach volleyball star Kerri Walsh Jennings has been doing online talks with young volley-ball players, including one with the team at her alma mater of Archbishop Mitty High School in California. U.S. wrestlers Mal-lory Velte, Pat Smith and Yianni

Diakomihalis detailed their at-home workouts in a post on the federation website. Casey Patter-son and April Ross were among a group of beach volleyball players who shared workout tips during Facebook live sessions on the AVP page.

The federations also are reach-ing out. USA Water Polo has been sending out a weekly newsletter called “At Home with USA Water Polo” featuring interviews with coaches and athletes. U.S. Row-ing has been holding webinars for its members. USA Volleyball has a page on its website with COVID-19-related resources.

“A lot of people look to (us) in the athlete world, in our commu-nities, for us to kind of be a voice. Like, how are we going to re-spond? What actions are we tak-ing?” said U.S. softball pitcher Monica Abbott, who has been

doing speaking engagements with young softball players and holding pitching-inspired work-out sessions.

The effort by Olympic athletes and federations comes amid con-cern about the future of college sports. Some Olympic sports could be on the chopping block for ath-letic departments looking to save money after losing revenue due to the COVID-19 shutdown.

“I wouldn’t say that that’s something I’m focusing on, but it’s definitely something that’s in my mind and helps me plan for these,” U.S. water polo center Matt Farmer said, “because I’m taking an optimistic view of what’s going to happen in college water polo, because it means so much to so many people.”

Farmer, a 24-year-old Chicago native who played on three NCAA championship teams at

UCLA, is focusing his outreach efforts on the Midwest. Califor-nia is the home of American water polo, but Farmer is hoping he can help some young players follow in his footsteps.

“I kind of blazed a trail from Chicago to international water polo,” Farmer said, “and I want to share my experiences with people and maybe give advice to people who are thinking about

playing in college or continuing the sport and just want to grow as players and as people.”

The online conversations usu-ally touch on a variety of topics. There are the usual practical tips for playing the sport at a high level, but there also are ele-ments of sports psychology — es-pecially with young players away from their teams and searching for motivation.

Triumph on virtual track

Jenna Fryer AP auto racing writer

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — William Byron showed he’s the sharpest gamer in NASCAR’s iRacing Series with his third victory in four events.

Byron passed Timmy Hill with seven laps remaining at virtual Dover International Speedway, where NASCAR was scheduled to actually race Sunday, to win yet again on the iRacing platform. The Hendrick Mo-torsports driver has consistently been the best of the NASCAR professionals in simulated racing.

Alex Bowman won last week at vir-tual Talladega Superspeedway, so Hendrick drivers have now won four consecutive iRacing events.

“I’ve enjoyed this iRacing Series, but I’m definitely ready to get going in my real car,” Byron said. “Racing

anything, whether it’s a box car or any-thing with an engine, is going to give you confidence if you are winning.”

He said that in all his years using iRacing, he’s never been in such com-petitive events since NASCAR launched the invitational esports se-ries after the stock car series was sus-pended March 13.

Denny Hamlin earned the pole in qualifying, but NASCAR successfully applied an invert — a glitch last week prevented the top 10 from flipping be-fore the race began — so Ross Chastain cycled into the top starting spot.

Hamlin had his race ruined last week when his daughter accidentally turned his simulator screen off with a remote control she was holding as he was competing. He made sure to hide all remotes before Sunday’s race, but after an incident with John Hunter

Nemechek, he seemed to be deliber-ately wrecked by Nemechek later in retaliation.

It brought out a late caution and a restart with nine laps remaining and Hill leading Byron at the green flag.

Byron didn’t need to use a bump-and-run — the move Hill used on Byron to win the virtual race at Texas Motor Speedway — and easily passed him on the inside with seven laps remaining.

Hill finished second and was shown at times racing with his cat on his steering wheel.

“William has done a great job through this iRacing invitational,” Hill said. “I just wish I could get an-other win. I’ve had such tremendous support from everyone in the racing community through this; this has been a blast and really brought us all to-gether. We’ve really had a lot of fun

racing all these races, but I can’t wait to get back and see everyone’s faces.”

NASCAR will complete its iRacing Series next Saturday at North Caroli-na’s deserted North Wilkesboro Speedway, a track last raced by the national series in 1996. Overgrown with weeds and clearly neglected, Dale Earnhardt Jr. last year led a group of volunteers in cleaning the speedway so it could be mapped for use in iRacing.

Although the simulated version of North Wilkesboro is not yet available to the public on the iRacing platform, it will be the virtual host for NASCAR’s finale. Then it’s back to the real thing for the stock car series, which plans to resume competition without spectators starting May 17 at Darlington Raceway in South Carolina.

Associated PressWilliam Byron celebrates in Victory Lane after winning the second of two NASCAR Daytona 500 qualifying races Feb. 13 at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach. Byron won NASCAR’s iRacing event at virtual Dover International Speedway. It was Byron’s third victory in the last four iRacing events created to provide NASCAR content during the coronavirus pandemic.

William Shakespeare, in “Ham-let,” wrote, “He’s loved of the dis-tracted multitude, who like not in their judgment, but their eyes.”

At the bridge table, a well-timed falsecard may distract an oppo-nent. When should you make a falsecard, though?

When you have no legitimate chance to make your contract. Then maybe an opponent will take his eyes off the cards.

Today’s deal was played some years ago during a rubber-bridge game in London.

The stake was approximately $3 per point.

North’s opening would not meet with universal approval, and South took a logical shot at three no-trump.

Obviously, a diamond lead would have defeated the contract quickly. But West chose the spade two. Then East, for some reason confi-dent that declarer had the ace, played his jack so that he could learn who held the queen.

The declarer, Howard Cohen, was confident that if he took the first trick with his spade queen and immediately played a heart, who-ever had that ace would take the trick and shift to diamonds. So he won the first trick with the spade ace! Then he led a heart.

West, suitably fooled, dashed in with his ace and continued with the spade 10.

When East thoughtlessly played low, South scooped up the trick with his queen and soon claimed 11 tricks: two spades, three hearts and six clubs.

Afterward, East apologized to his partner.

He realized that if West had started with the spade queen and 10, he would have led the queen at trick three.

BESTTONIGHT’S

8 p.m. on ` S9-1-1

In a new episode called “Power-less,” the hijacking of a tree-trim-mer truck results in a citywide power outage, but the 118 team also is caught up in the attempted rescue of a little girl in a runaway hot-air balloon. Elsewhere, Athe-na’s (Angela Bassett) investigation into the serial-rapist case puts her life in grave danger. Tracie Thoms,

John Harlan Kim, Bryan Safi and Scottie Thompson guest star.

9 p.m. on # %American Experience

“George W. Bush” looks at an American president who came into office under fiercely con-tentious circumstances and took office less than 10 months be-fore the terrorist attacks of 9/11 ushered in a new era of fear and anxiety. Concluding Tuesday, this new profile includes inter-views with journalists, histori-ans and such members of “W’s” inner circle as chiefs of staff Andrew Card and Joshua Bol-ten, senior advisor Karl Rove, speechwriter David Frum and press secretary Ari Fleischer.

9 p.m. on & *All Rise

Making a virtue of necessity, this new episode explores how the shelter-in-place rules relating to the COVID-19 crisis affect the criminal justice system. As the episode opens, Judge Benner (Marg Helgenberger) authorizes a “virtual” bench trial presided over by Judge Lola Carmichael (Simone Missick). The other

characters including the defen-dant, lawyers and prosecutors argue their case via such video chat apps as FaceTime, WebEx and Zoom, while also trying to navigate their personal lives in quarantine. Jessica Camacho, Ruthie Ann Miles and Wilson Bethel also star.

9 p.m. on (AMC)

CreepshowOriginally created for Shudder, a horror/thriller streaming ser-vice, this television spinoff of the Stephen King movie series begins a six-week run each Monday on AMC, with two chilling tales in each episode. First up in tonight’s premiere, “Gray Matter” stars Adrienne Barbeau and Giancarlo Esposi-to in a story about a platoon of American soldiers who find an unlikely way out of a Nazi trap. Then, “The House of the Head” revolves around a girl (Calley Fleming) who finds a strange toy head in her dollhouse.

10 p.m. on (BRAVO)

Camp GetawaySet at an idyllic adult camp-ground in the Berkshire Moun-

tains of Kent, Conn. — where “glamping” is the order of the day — this new unscripted series follows the Camp Run-away staff and counselors who work tirelessly to deliver on the facility’s pledge. And what is that? To give its grown-up clientele plenty of adventure, relaxation and bottomless mi-mosas. This being a Bravo real-ity show, of course, there’s also time for heavy flirting between counselors and campers.

10 p.m. on (HBO)

My Brilliant Friend: The Story of a New Name

Season 2 of this TV adaptation of a literary series by Elena Ferrante concludes with “The Blue Fairy,” wherein Elena (Margherita Mazzucco) returns home to Naples after earning her university degree and meet-ing a man from a nice family. Upon arriving in her home-town, she’s told that Lila (Gaia Grace) left home with her son. Elena also has written a novel based on her life. Elvis Esposi-to and Alessio Gallo also star.

Dear Annie: My parents originally made me ex-ecutor of their trust. My

brother, who is now 59, caused them nothing but heartache and trouble. He was fired from three jobs that I know of, and he was given a dishonorable military discharge. He has never been close to my two sis-ters or other brother.

My husband died, and my p a r e n t s both had d e m e n -tia. My b r o t h e r came to live with them and “ t a k e care” of them. My p a r e n t s t h e n m a d e him exec-utor of t h e i r trust.

Both of my parents passed of old age. We find out now that my dad closed the trust, all the safe deposit boxes and put ev-erything, $700,000, into a JOINT checking account with my brother.

None of us are included in the will, and my brother got it all including Mom’s jewelry. Is there a way we can sue him for fraud? — Heartbroken

Dear Heartbroken: I am so sorry for your loss, not only of your parents but also your re-lationship with your brother. He sounds like a very unhappy person, which no amount of money will fix. If you can, first try and speak with him about all of this. Tell him you love him but that perhaps your par-ents, due to their dementia, didn’t mean to leave every-thing to just one of their chil-dren. That doesn’t make sense.

If he is completely unwilling to compromise or listen to you, bring in legal counsel. Because your parents had dementia when they changed their will, you might have legal recourse.

Dear Annie: I read with much appreciation your letter to health care workers. Thank you for the reminder that there are people out there who have given up their private lives for the good of the rest of us. I will not go into naming all, as you tried to do. My concern is somewhat personal, as I have a son who is a paramedic.

It seems as if paramedics and all emergency medical technicians are often left out of the papers and TV stories. Paramedics are often first at the scene, even before the fire personnel and police officers. They are the ones who must transport the individual to the hospital; they are the ones who must stay in the emer-gency room with the patient until the doctor or nurse has had time and opportunity to evaluate the situation.

Many times that can take a few hours. They put their lives on the line just like all the oth-ers who are always mentioned. The doctors and nurses, the fire personnel, and the police and sheriff ’s deputies not only get the credit; they also get meals brought in. The para-medics don’t even get a hamburger.

Let’s not forget those we see but do not recognize because their title is not as impressive as others’. They work hard, and they work long hours. They pro-vide a service that is essential but not often thought of.

Thanks for letting me vent. My son, and the sons and daughters of other parents, need the recognition their job deserves. — A Caring Parent

Dear Caring Parent: Para-medics and EMTs are indeed heroes during this pandemic, and we thank them for all of their hard work. You have every right to speak up for your son, and I can assure you that we all appreciate him and his colleagues.
