A Lake City man who died at the height of the Vietnam conflict and whose remains

have been in an unmarked local grave for 51 years has spurred a great amount of interest recently.

Last week Private First Class Eugene McCray’s photograph was found and now the first steps have been taken with the local Veteran’s Affairs Claims office to have a headstone placed on his grave.

It might be the most inter-

AIRPORT TREES, FENCE

Plans to seek injunction to halt revamped project.

By CARL MCKINNEYcmckinney@lakecityreporter.com

After the city inched closer toward a project that Florida Gateway College asserts will endanger its campus, FGC President Lawrence Barrett said an amicable solution is no longer likely in a dispute over the removal of large swaths of trees on airport property.

The college will talk with attorneys about obtain-ing an injunction against the city, Barrett said, after the Airport Advisory Committee on Tuesday voted to send a $220,555 fencing project to the City Council.

Rubio warns of ‘nefarious’ threatsBy JIM TURNERThe News Service of Florida

Purple Hatter’s Ball June 1-2From staff reports

Purple Hat Productions has announced the artist lineup for the 11th Annual Purple Hatter’s Ball June 1-2. The 2018 Purple Hatter’s Ball will be head-lined by seven-piece super funk futurists Lettuce, known for throwing down some of its best live per-formances on The Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park Amphitheater Stage in Live Oak.

Arizona-based four piece band Spafford is in the midst of a meteoric rise within the jam scene and taking over airwaves on Sirius XM’s JamOn. Also performing is Breaking Biscuits fea-turing Aron Magner and Marc Brownstein of The Disco Biscuits and Adam

Deitchand Borham Lee of Break Science. The experi-mental band has only played a handful of shows, and this marks its first performance in the Southeast.

Additional artists on the lineup include Florida-based jam aficionados The Heavy Pets who are cur-rently touring behind their new full-length album Strawberry Mansion, the one-and-only sacred steel master Roosevelt Collier and his band whose Exit 16 debut album dropped recently on GroundUp Music, Toubab Krewe with its energetic instru-mental world music that blends Caribbean, Malian and influences from the “Dir ty South,” the con-scious world-reggae sounds of DubConscious

- Rachel’s favorite band, twin producer–duo MZG, Southern Avenue, Vlad The Inhaler, Trial By Stone, catfish Alliance and HIVEMIND.

The two-day music fes-tival raises awareness for the non-profit Rachel Morningstar Foundation in honor of music lover Rachel Morningstar Hoffman.

A favorite moment of the weekend is when Rachel’s mother, Margie Weiss (aka Mama Margie), leads an emotional ceremony cel-ebrating her daughter’s memory. Each year, they release 24 monarch but-terflies – 23 to represent Rachel’s age when she was taken from this world and one for her spirit that lives on.

Edwards, Catholic Charities Lake City office regional director. “Drive-up with a plastic bag and we’re going to load them up with vegeta-bles, diary and meat.”

The event is designed to serve residents in the counties served by Catholic Charities Lake City regional office: Columbia, Hamilton, Lafayette, Suwannee and Union.

For safety purposes, walk-ups will not be allowed and people hoping to be served during the event must pro-vide a Florida identification card from one of the coun-ties served by the Catholic Charities Lake City regional office. Clients will not have to exit their vehicle to get the food.

Edwards said she is uncertain how many people will attend the event.

“I know certain school systems have sent out the information on an e-mail blast alerting families that this opportunity is avail-able,” she said. “I’m think-ing we could have upwards

of 900-1,000 families. It could get higher than that.”

Edwards said each vehi-cle could have multiple families and there really is no way to determine how many people will be served until the numbers are tabu-lated after the event.

“This is how we put com-passion into action,” she said. “Getting the fresh product — the meats, dairy

into households that may not have an extra special something for their Easter weekend with their family or extended family,” she said. “This is just our way to give back to our neighborhoods.”

Catholic Charities has hosted Neighbor to Neighbor events in the past and has done similar drive-up events during Thanksgiving and

Christmas, as well as their mobile outreach services in their five-county area.

During the mobile out-reach events, the agency takes food to the counties and distributes about 20,000

pounds of food in roughly two hours.

“This event is different because it’s right here on site,” Edwards said. “We could give upwards of up to 50,000 pounds of food out in

four hours. They’re going to get a gracious plenty. It depends on what we have.”

Preparation for the event will begin today when the staff and volunteers begin packaging some of the items.

est shown over McCray who as of last week was missing photographic identification of any kind for his space in an online Vietnam veteran’s memorial titled “The Wall of Faces.”

His picture was the last of six Columbia County men killed in the conflict and sought by Alachua 1092 Chapter of the Vietnam Veterans of America president Forest Hope for the digital memorial, which can be found at vvmf.org.

“I got verification that he is the one,” Hope said.

The process was long, taking over two years and involving several concerned indi-viduals before a photograph was found of McCray, who died at 20 in 1967.

It was also complicated. Local school dis-trict volunteers and city employees pored over records. One, Morris Williams, even took to the editorial pages to raise awareness to McCray’s plight, while another, Brandy McGhin, took to social media in her appeals.

But thanks to the detective work of a Lake City woman who graduated from the same local segregated school, Richardson High School, a photo was found.

Lake City resident Lelia Williams had the most luck, but she didn’t call it that.

“It’s not luck, it’s the Lord,” said Williams. “It’s a heart thing, that was one of my desires — once it get it get in my heart boy ...”

Also thanks to Williams, McCray might soon receive a headstone to identify his unmarked grave in the local Garden of Rest Cemetery.

She said unlike finding McCray’s service photograph, which was located at request by renters in the previous home of McCray’s moth-er, Lilly McCray, after days of hunting, it was by accident she learned of the missing headstone.

She said she was at church, New Bethel Missionary Baptist, Sunday. The pastor was applauding her involvement in the search to the congregation. She said he had read about it in the weekend edition of the Lake City Reporter.

From that another man in the audience, retired Lake City Fire Department Chief Al Wilson, approached her and said he knew where McCray’s grave was — sitting unmarked by his parents’ in Garden of Rest.

“I think somebody went out to the ceme-tery looking and the reason they didn’t find it is because he doesn’t have a headstone out there and that’s been what 51 years ago,” Williams said. “If that hadn’t have been announced in church I wouldn’t have known that.”

Veteran’s Claims Examiner Rosa Stewart with the Division of Veterans’ Benefits and Assistance said she would assist Williams in her efforts to procure a headstone.

“[The] government supplies a headstone for every veteran…,” Hope said, “for whatever reason McCray didn’t get one, I don’t know. We’re going to try to get him one.”

Hope said there are now only 44 names of Vietnam veterans out of what was nearly 800 in the state when the project began in 2016.

CRASHContinued From 1A

Man survives serious crashBy COREY ARWOODcarwood@lakecityreporter.com

Commuters on a south-bound highway outside city limits Monday evening likely passed a crushed black pick-up truck and a group of first responders placing its driver on a stretcher and later into an ambulance.

The four-door GMC sat sev-eral yards off US Highway 441 South with a crumpled side wall and cab, resting against a telephone poll.

Law enforcement said the driver had to be cut free from the cab of the truck.

Around 6:50 p.m. Columbia County Fire Rescue and para-medics hovered quietly over the man on the gurney, lead-ing anyone who passed the scene to believe the driver had been critically injured.

But a Columbia County Sheriff’s Deputy said that wasn’t the case.

“God loves him, look what he missed over there,” said Deputy Ruslan Lipelis.

He was pointing to a con-crete drainage embankment that dropped about five feet into the ditch where the man’s truck sat.

Two sets of tire tracks ripped through the grass off the highway where he had apparently attempted to brake too late.

“Thank God for the tele-phone polls, it stopped him, keep rolling,” Lipelis said. “Two feet — a different story.”

Lipelis said he was dis-patched and arrived first to

the scene of the single-vehi-cle, single-occupant crash.

After seeing the wreckage, Lipelis said he didn’t check the man’s identification and didn’t know his name but when he reached him he knew he was OK.

“He was asking about his wife,” Lipelis said.

A Columbia County Fire Rescue firefighter packing up gear into a fire engine con-firmed Lipelis’ assessment that the man sustained minor injuries only.

Barrett said the fencing project is related to the city’s plan to cut down 133 acres of trees on airport property, which will worsen flooding issues on the neighboring campus.

“I wanted to try to reason and work with the city,” he said. “And tonight, it became evident that there’s been no discussion about that with the college.”

At the advisory committee meeting, Airport Manager Roland Luster said no trees would be removed during

the first phase of the project, which entails erecting about 6,500 feet of fencing around the industrial park on airport property.

A Florida Department of Transportation grant is fund-ing the project in full.

If the tree question is resolved by the time phase one is completed, the city will move on to phase two, Luster said — installing about 1,500 feet of fencing along Timberwolf Drive and about 600 feet inland.

The city has received an estimate of $20,000 for a wetland and wildlife study to determine the impact of removing the 133 acres

of trees on airport proper-ty. The Federal Aviation Administration recommend-ed the study before removing any trees, according to emails between the agency and city officials.

During the meeting, City Councilman Jake Hill, who also sits on the advisory com-mittee and voted against the fencing project, questioned the need to cut down the trees.

“Why all of a sudden do these trees have to be taken out?” he asked.

Luster said some of the trees need to go so that land around the industrial area can be developed.

Barrett said Luster’s answer was “interesting.”

At previous council and advisory committee meet-ings, the three main reasons city officials gave for remov-ing the trees were controlling the local deer population by removing their habitat, line-of-sight issues with a road and general security, Barrett pointed out.

City officials have claimed the FAA was requiring the trees to come down, but the FAA later indicated it had no knowledge of the plan, he said.

“It was either interpreted by staff or misrepresented by staff,” Barrett said.

elections.“It’s not just about Florida,” Rubio

said. “Whether it’s pride or a sincere belief, there’s a level of overconfidence in our system we should be careful about.”

With the Senate Intelligence Committee still working on a final report, he said Russian meddling in the 2016 elections involved “probing” for vulnerabilities in advance of the upcom-ing contests.

“The threat is not necessarily that they’re going to break into ballot boxes and change the outcome of an election,” Rubio said. “The threat is much more nefarious than that.”

He warned that the strategy is to cre-ate chaos to make election results ques-tionable by hacking voter-registration databases to delay or prevent people from voting or to alter unofficial results posted online on election night.

“There’s going to be mass chaos,” Rubio said, if his concerns come to fruition. “There’s going to be anger: The losing side is going to argue it was a rigged election. ‘How could we have been winning when the results come out and we’re not winning anymore?’ ”

“We have an already-polarized coun-try, already at each other’s throat,” Rubio continued. “That is what I fear

most of all.”Rubio said he’s opposed to federal-

izing elections but would like for more “sharing” of information between state and federal officials.

He also said state elections officials need more awareness about the threat, with more state and federal resources put into building firewalls and redundan-cy into voting systems.

Florida Department of State spokes-woman Sarah Revell said Tuesday the agency engages with state and federal agencies and has upgraded hardware and firewalls to protect voter informa-tion and prevent against possible hack-ing.

The agency received $1.9 million in the state’s new $88.7 billion bud-get for next fiscal year to establish a network-monitoring security program that provides automated alerts about threats, allowing county election offi-

cials to respond when data may be at risk, according to Revell.

“Cybersecurity is an ongoing process and as we move forward, we will contin-ue to build on our existing infrastructure to maintain the integrity and security of Florida’s elections in the future,” Revell said in an email.

Florida is one of several states where voter rolls were believed to have been targeted by Russian hackers before the 2016 presidential election.

Florida officials have not disclosed what exactly transpired during the elec-tion.

In September 2016, the Florida Department of State simply acknowl-edged the FBI held an “informational call related to elections security” with the state agency and 67 county supervi-sors of elections.

A year later, the state agency further acknowledged it was notified by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that Florida was targeted by hackers in 2016.

“This attempt was not in any way suc-cessful, and Florida’s online elections databases and voting systems remained secure,” the Florida Department of State said in a September 2017 state-ment.

In February, NBC News reported that Florida was one of several states where election websites or databases were compromised. The Department of Homeland Security called the report “inaccurate and misleading.”

Rubio also said state elections officials

need more awareness about the threat,

with more state and federal resources put into building firewalls and redundancy into

voting systems.

The most striking thing about how President Donald Trump chose his new nation-

al security adviser, John Bolton, and new director of the National Economic Council, Larry Kudlow, isn’t about either of them personally, although neither is well suited to the honest-broker role that their position calls for. Nor is it that Trump seems to have hired both of them because he liked watching them on television. That’s a deeply flawed reason to hire anyone, to be sure, but we’re accustomed to how Trump hires people based on super-ficial criteria.

What is striking is that both are essentially within the mainstream of the Republican Party on policy approaches that ended in disaster during the last Republican presiden-cy. Bolton was part of the George W. Bush administration as it pre-pared for and fought the Iraq War; Kudlow hasn’t been in government for years, but he was a cheerleader for Bush’s policies as the economy plunged into a terrible recession. Neither of them was discredited as a result, because Republicans have collectively decided that their policies in 2001-2008 were correct, regardless of outcome.

This is ... unusual. Democrats after the Jimmy Carter years pretty much exiled everyone in that White House from further influence within the party; Bill Clinton wouldn’t even hire Carter people who had survived with

excellent reputations. Democrats after 1968 went through a bitter fight over foreign policy, with most of those who supported the Vietnam War inside the Kennedy and Johnson administrations losing their place in the party and the entire foreign-pol-icy establishment overturned. And

Eisenhower Republicans rejected Hoover economic approaches. In other words, parties usually deal with major policy failures by ridding themselves of those held responsi-ble.

Electorates have very short mem-

ories, and they pay way more atten-tion to their task of throwing out the current rascals than checking on who the new rascals will be. Parties don’t want to repeat their mistakes, presumably for straightforward good-governance reasons and in accord with the electoral incentive to try to make voters happy.

The truth is many Republicans, including governing professionals such as Bolton, just don’t see the Iraq War as a policy disaster. I don’t think that’s quite true on economic policy, but in that area, they’ve man-aged to convince themselves that the party out of office was respon-sible.

In some ways, the traditional party reaction to policy failure can be a mistake, with parties freez-ing out talented people who just happened to be there when things went wrong. The best approach is almost certainly a middle ground, in which the party takes a good, hard look at how things went awry and who should be discredited. But there’s not much evidence that’s happened for Republicans. It’s just one of the many things suggesting normal party incentives aren’t work-ing properly for the party. And that leaves them much less prepared to govern than they should be ... Trump or no Trump.

Howard Nichola is a short man with poor hearing who looks about 75 but is actually 102.

He is funny, likable and sure of him-self — a sharp-eyed, clear-headed American hero.

One of the high points of my life came Tuesday, when I sat in a con-ference room here at the Reporter with Mr. Nichola, a nephew of his and one of my reporters to hear him tell the story of June 6, 1944 — the day he and thousands of American and Allied troops just like him saved the world from darkness.

The full story will come in Sunday’s paper. I’ll just share a few snippets of our talk, which ran the full range of human emo-tion.

The man is funny, to be sure, though certainly not comical.

Fresh uniforms were in short sup-ply in the days following the inva-sion at Normandy, and hardly the first thing on anyone’s mind.

Still, as summer wore on, the wool-en jackets and trousers issued at the start began to generate ever greater discomfort. The soldiers wanted shorts, but none were to be had.

The answer?Bloomers.That’s right. The brave men who

beat back the Nazis wore women’s undergarments for a brief time following the greatest military inva-

sion in history.“Boy, if the Germans had seen

that,” Mr. Nichola chuckled.It was the look on his face that

made the story complete. There

was genuine bemusement, but also the calm certainty of someone who knew the good guys had the last laugh on that day.

Mostly there was little to laugh about on June 6 and thereafter.

Mr. Nichola told us how his land-ing craft bumped dead soldiers’ bod-ies out of the way as it made its way through the surf toward the beach.

It didn’t look good for any of them.

“We knew we’d be killed the next day,” he said. “We always planned for that.”

But Howard Nichola lived to fight again. He fought his way through France and on to the Battle of the Bulge that December. He is still plagued by complications from the frostbite he suffered fighting off Germany’s last big counter-offensive of the war.

My grandfather fought at Guadalcanal so I grew up listening to World War II stories. I never grew tired of hearing them. These are the men who wrested the world from the jaws of hell, and I am unabashed in my admiration.

I asked Mr. Nichola what it felt like to be one of those men.

“It feels very good,” he said qui-etly.

No false modesty, no arrogance.Read Howard Nichola’s whole

story in Sunday’s Reporter. Anyone doubting America’s greatness, in his day or now, will find themselves set straight in short order.

A town pulls together for

one of its own

Thanks to the people of Lake City, a long-forgotten warrior will be given his due.

Eugene McCray — called Frank Eugene McCray by some, though that is apparently not his real name — will be recognized in full for his sacrifice of April 6, 1967. That’s when the young Lake City man died at age 20 in an unknown province of Vietnam.

Private First Class McCray hadn’t been forgot-ten in the 51 years since his death, but nearly so. No one even had a picture of him for display on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund Wall of Faces (http://www.vvmf.org/Wall-of-Faces/).

Things began to look up in 2016, when Forest Hope, president of Alachua 1092 Chapter of the Vietnam Veterans of America, set out to find McCray’s photo so that he could be properly recognized.

The Lake City Reporter ran a series of articles that year documenting the search. Photos of other local soldiers, similarly forgotten, finally turned up. But nothing on PFC McCray.

The trail went cold until March 11 of this year, when local historian and longtime retired educa-tor Morris Williams mentioned the search in his column in this newspaper.

That prompted us to run a front-page story that caught the eye of local resident Lelia Williams, who took it from there.

Once she got started, things happened fast.Within 48 hours, Williams had located a photo

of PFC McCray and had already begun reaching out to the VA to get him a proper headstone.

Now his photo is up on the virtual wall for everyone in town — and all around the world — to see. We are proud to see “Lake City” inscribed beneath his name.

Thank you, PFC McCray, for your gift to your country — and to each of us.

It may be a little late, but we are deeply moved and forever grateful.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and thyroidDEAR PHARMACIST

Suzy Coheninfo@dearpharmacist.comwww.SuzyCohen.com

There are many reasons that you might be tired and suffering with chron-

ic fatigue syndrome (CFS). To be clear, CFS is not the kind of fatigue that goes away after you’ve rested, this is a persistent type of weakness that is inexpli-cable, unrelenting and disabling.

CFS has been pinned on Epstein-Barr (EBV) and human herpes virus 6 (HHV-6), par-asites, mycotoxins, mold, adrenal dysfunction, nutrient deficiencies and much more. But new research published in March 2018 in Frontiers of Endocrinology has uncovered a rather obvious link, one that has the potential to change your life dramatically, and in a good way!

Chronic fatigue impacts about 2.5 million people in the United States who deal with it, but live

in an awful state of exhaustion, brain fog, dizziness and muscle pain or weakness. Attempts to treat it with antibiotics, stimu-lants, sleeping pills and antide-pressants have left millions of people adversely affected by the drugs and still feeling pretty dreadful, perhaps only marginally better, but certainly not cured. I’m confident, especially now, that thyroid medication holds the key to getting better if you have CFS.

Scientists in the Netherlands and in Spain got together and inferred that CFS could be a result of low thyroid (T3) hor-mone levels, independent of the TSH. To test the theory they looked at 197 people, of which 98 had been diagnosed with CFS and 99 were not. After comparing thyroid function, and

biomarkers of inflammation, the researchers found that the peo-ple with CFS had dramatically lower levels of important thyroid hormones, including triiodothy-ronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) but surprisingly they had normal TSH levels.

This means that your TSH could appear normal on a lab test, but your T3 could be lower due to poor activation (which means that the T4 isn’t convert-ing to T3 fast enough). This means that you would have all the symptoms of low thyroid (and it will not be detected if the doctor just looks at your TSH levels) and let me remind you, this is what most do, they just look at TSH levels and nothing more!

There are many reasons for poor T3 activation, and I wrote a book on this topic called, Thyroid Healthy. It’s on Amazon. I also have an ebook I can share for free if you sign up for my news-letter at my website. The folks with CFS happened to produce higher amounts of reverse T3 (rT3) which sadly is like your

hibernation hormone. It slows you down, it basically puts you to sleep. It’s not biologically active like T3. To read more about this go to my website and use the search box to find the article called, “Measure Reverse T3 and Get Thyroid Healthy.”

This critical research means that people with CFS are likely suffering from an underlying thyroid problem and could benefit dramatically from sim-ple affordable medications like Compounded T3, Cytomel or other forms of T3 medication. The T4 drugs like Levothyroxine will not be of benefit and might exacerbate the problem due to more rT3 formation.

Want to eat healthy? Get back to nutrition basicsBy SAMANTHA GRENROCKUF Health

GAINESVILLE --- It’s March, and many New Year’s resolutions have fallen by the wayside. But if your goal was to eat healthier in 2018, you’re in luck: March is National Nutrition Month.

This is an opportunity to recommit to healthy eat-ing, says a registered dieti-tian with the University of Florida.

Popular diets come and go, but the no-frills, evi-dence-based guidelines are here to stay. Kaley Mialki, youth programs specialist with the Family Nutrition Program, part of the UF Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences Extension, said, “Eating well does not have to be complicated.”

Here are a few tips to help you and your fam-ily get back to nutrition basics:

1. As you shop and eat, practice these habits:

• Eat a variety of foods from all food groups.

• Fill half your plate with fruits and vegetables.

• Make half your grains whole grains.

• Choose low-fat and fat-

free dairy products.• Eat a variety of pro-

tein-rich foods from plant and animal sources.

• Read the Nutrition Facts label on food packag-es to choose foods lower in saturated fat, sodium and added sugar.

• Eat the amount of cal-ories that is right for you. Go to www.choosemy-plate.gov/MyPlate-Daily-Checklist-input to calculate your caloric needs.

2. Embrace the power of fruits and vegetables.

Eating more fruits and vegetables often can help make us feel better, Mialki said. Eating a healthy diet that includes fruits and veg-etables may also lower your risk of developing chronic diseases.

“Fruits and vegetables contain nutrients, including

vitamins, minerals and fiber, all of which help keep our bodies working well,” she said. “Vitamins and miner-als help keep our skin and eyes healthy, heal wounds, and control our blood pres-sure. Fiber helps us feel full for longer, maintains nor-mal digestion, helps reduce blood cholesterol and has many other health benefits.”

3. Sneak fruits and veg-etables into meals and snacks.

Consuming more fruits and vegetables can be a matter of tweaking your eat-ing routine. Here are some examples:

• Add berries or banana slices to cereal, yogurt or oatmeal for breakfast.

• Include tomatoes, mushrooms or spinach in your omelet.

•Snack on a piece of

fresh fruit or crunchy veg-etables and hummus.

•Swap sandwich bread or tortillas out for lettuce wraps.

•Blend fruit and leafy green vegetables — spin-ach and kale work well — together with low-fat yogurt for a flavorful smoothie.

•Keep fruit and vegeta-bles in sight by placing a bowl of fresh fruit on the counter or placing vegeta-bles in a visible spot in your fridge.

4.Help kids eat better by making it a family affair.

There are many strate-gies for encouraging chil-dren to develop healthy eating habits, Mialki said.

•Be a role model for kids by making healthy food choices, practicing good mealtime behaviors and being physically active.

•Set the menu, meal location and meal time. Let kids decide which foods they want to eat and how much they want to eat from what parents offer. Children may eat better when they feel in control of their food choices.

• Allow kids to help with food purchasing and prepa-ration. They may be more likely to eat the foods they helped buy and cook.

•Find age-appropriate kitchen tasks for kids, such as washing produce, mea-suring ingredients or read-

ing recipe instructions. • Keep meal times and

food choices positive. Encourage positive conver-sations at the dinner table, eat together as a family, keep the TV off and respect your child’s food preferences.

• Teach kids that no foods are off limits, but encourage healthier foods most of the time. Remind kids that foods like ice cream, French fries and sugar sweetened beverag-es are “sometimes foods,” so we only eat them some-times.

Deadlines, responsibili-ties, bills -- there are so many causes of stress in our lives. Unfortunately, stress can take a negative toll on one’s health and well-ness, particularly if it goes unaddressed for too long. Indeed, common effects of stress include headaches, stomach upset, anxiety, sleep problems and more, according to the Mayo Clinic.

This April, which is Stress Awareness Month, consider these strategies for relieving stress.

• Aromatherapy: Scent your home and workspace with stress-relieving scents like lavender, rosemary and peppermint. Whether you use candles, oils or fresh herbs, this is an easy way to immediately reduce feel-ings of stress.

• Get outdoors: Both exercise and nature can

have stress-relieving prop-erties. Combine the two with hiking, biking, and water-based sports.

•Meditate: Many experts agree on the benefits of meditation, from increased positive emotions to the relief of stress and anxi-ety. And these days, med-itation is more accessible than ever, as employers offer mindfulness programs in the workplace, mobile apps in guided meditation abound, and communities and fitness clubs add prac-tices like tai chi and yoga to their rosters.

• Enjoy music: Music can be an extremely pow-erful outlet for stress relief, particularly when you’re getting creative and making it yourself. Have the means at home to play a variety of beautiful music so that you can de-stress any time you need. To faithfully repro-duce the sounds of acoustic instruments like guitars,

drums, basses, brass, wind instruments, string ensem-bles and more, you don’t need an entire music studio full of separate instruments. The upgraded technology and sound quality found in

digital pianos reproduces subtle nuances and ges-tures specific to each sound.

• Keep a journal: Keeping a journal can be a good way of putting things in perspec-tive and thinking through

the short- and long-term problems and challenges that are causing you stress. Plus, the ritual aspect of what could be made into a daily habit, may have a calming effect on the body

and mind.This Stress Awareness

UF guard Jalen Hudson declares for NBA draft

By MARK LONGAssociated Press

GAINESVILLE — Florida guard Jalen Hudson, the team’s leading scorer this season, has declared for the NBA draft.

Hudson made the announcement on his Instagram page Tuesday, saying he won’t hire an agent at this time. Not

doing so leaves open the possibility that Hudson could return for his senior year.

The 6-foot-6 Hudson averaged 15.5 points in his first season with the Gators. He transferred to Florida in 2016 after playing two years at Virginia Tech, where he averaged 7.7 points in 67 games. Hudson has played in 101 games between the two schools, scoring 1,043 points and shooting 37 percent from 3-point range.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

By MARK LONGAssociated Press

ORLANDO — Tom Coughlin had one complaint about his first season back with the Jacksonville Jaguars: Watching games from the press box.

“The window in front of me got messed up a few times,” Coughlin said Tuesday at the NFL Meetings.

The 71-year-old former coach turned fiery exec-utive might need to find a new seat, especially given the ultrahigh expectations that will follow Jacksonville into the season.

After making the AFC championship game in January — and leading New England by 10 points in the fourth quarter before los-ing 24-20 — the Jaguars will be a popular pick to win their division and make anoth-er run to the Super Bowl.

“Non-negotiable expectations from within,” Coughlin said. “That’s how we look at it. Our expectations are very high and anybody that comes on board has to understand there’s a way to accomplish what we’re trying to accomplish. It’s through team, it’s through individual improvement and it’s through a relent-less drive through team success.”

It was the same way during Coughlin’s first stint in Jacksonville. Coughlin essen-tially built the franchise from the ground up in 1995. He was the head coach and the one voice that made every decision — from who threw the passes to who ran the calculator for the salary cap to what color paint was on the walls.

Anyone who believes he’s a figurehead in his return would be mistaken.

Tornadoes roar backBy JORDAN KROEGERjkroeger@lakecityreporter.com

FORT WHITE — Errors have cost Fort White a few losses this season and that was the case again in Tuesday night’s District 5-5A contest against Bradford.

The Lady Indians committed three errors and allowed four unearned runs, suffering their fourth loss in their last five games as the Tornadoes came away with an 8-5 win at Coach John Wilson Field. Brooklyn Wiggins and Krista Hildebran both drove in two runs for Bradford (7-7,

5-5), which pulled within a game of Fort White (6-6, 5-4) in the loss column in the district standings for the No. 3 seed.

The defeat was frustrating for everyone in the home dugout, considering the Lady Indians spent a bulk of Monday’s practice working on fielding drills.

“We thought we had fix it. We had a great practice yesterday but everybody’s going to have an off night and tonight was an off night,” Fort White coach Michele Padgett said.

“They’ve just got to build some con-fidence. When they’ve been in a slump, they’ve got to build their confidence back

up. You can coach them up but they’ve got to build that confidence and we have to put them in those positions to build that confidence back up. That’s what we’ll come back out here and work on.”

Fort White falls to last place in district.

UF baseball shuts out Florida State 1-0

GAINESVILLE — It was a clas-sic pitcher’s duel on Tuesday night in Jacksonville and the Gators edged out No. 5 Florida State 1-0 in the Fresh from Florida Sunshine Showdown.

Austin Langworthy’s RBI single in the fourth inning brought home Wil Dalton for the game’s only run.

Florida freshman Jack Leftwich shined in just his third career start and picked up the win. He did not allow a hit through the first five innings and struck out five.

Freshman Jordan Butler bridged the gap with two score-less innings before handing the ball to junior closer Michael Byrne.

Byrne tied the UF career record by picking up his 25th career save, pitching two score-less innings with four strikeouts.

On the other side, FSU start-er Andrew Karp pitched eight innings with one run allowed.

FSU announces guard Walker leaving program

TALLAHASSEE— Florida State coach Leonard Hamilton said in a statement on Tuesday that point guard CJ Walker asked for the release and that he appreciated his contribu-tions over the past two seasons.

The 6-foot-1 sophomore started 34 of 35 games for the Seminoles, who lost to Michigan in the West Region final.

Walker, an Indianapolis native, averaged 8.0 points, which was fourth on the team, but saw his playing time dimin-ish down the stretch due to the emergence of Trent Forrest. The 6-5 sophomore was Florida State’s best player down the stretch, averaging 12.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.8 assists over the final 10 games.

3 freshmen headline AP All-America team

The talented trio of Oklahoma’s Trae Young, Arizona’s Deandre Ayton and Duke’s Marvin Bagley III made history Tuesday by being named to the AP All-America team, the first time three fresh-men were named to the first team in its 70-year history.

They were joined by Villanova’s Jalen Brunson and Kansas guard Devonte’ Graham on the team selected by the same 65-member national media panel that selects the weekly AP Top 25.

Wilson earns third All-America honors

NEW YORK — South Carolina senior center A’ja Wilson became the seventh player Monday ever to earn Associated Press All-America team honors three times. She was a unani-mous choice from the 32-mem-ber national media panel that votes on the AP Top 25 each week. Wilson was joined on the All-America team by UConn’s Katie Lou Samuelson, Oregon’s Sabrina Ionescu, Louisville’s Asia Durr and Mississippi State’s Victoria Vivians.

ROUNDUP

COURTESY

Carter finishes top threeColumbia High School standout Tiara Carter took third in the Florida Junior Tour at Eagle Harbor Golf Club near Jacksonville this past weekend.

NCAA transfer rules, but was often Florida’s best player in practice. He proved that this season, shooting 45.5 percent from the field and hitting a team-high 78 3-pointers.

“Over the next few weeks, I will continue to weigh my options and make the best decision for myself and my family,” Hudson wrote.

If Hudson does turn pro, it would be a big loss for coach Mike White. The Gators already will be without senior guards Chris Chiozza and Egor Koulechov next season. Hudson, Koulechov and Chiozza were the team’s top three scorers in 2017-18. Koulechov also led the team in rebounding, and Chiozza was tops in the Southeastern Conference with 208 assists.

Florida also will lose senior John Egbunu, who announced Tuesday that he will not seek a medical exemption after missing the entire season follow-ing knee surgery.

Egbunu tore the ante-

rior cruciate ligament in his left knee in February 2017 and had several setbacks while trying to return this season.

The 6-foot-11 center and former South Florida transfer averaged 10.0 points and 6.5 rebounds

for the Gators. He also blocked 84 shots. His 75 dunks during the 2015-16 season were a single-sea-son school record.

Egbunu played in 90 games at the two schools, averaging 9.1 points and 6.4 rebounds.

LAKE CITY REPORTER ADVICE & COMICS WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28, 2018 3B

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been married for a few months and are expecting our first child. His father passed away about a year ago. His parents had been married 33 years when he died.

A few weeks ago, we told my mother-in-law we were expecting our first child. After a joyous moment and some conversation later about children, she brought up my husband’s half-brother, someone I didn’t know existed! My husband then said, “I thought we weren’t sup-posed to talk about him.” She told him my father-in-law had reached out to the half-brother before his death to make amends (she’d had no knowledge they were in contact), but while she was cleaning out his wallet she found a pic-ture of him.

Abby, I’m confused now about how to discuss this with my husband because I would love to know more details about his half-broth-er. I don’t know how old he is, or what happened (i.e., infidelity). Evidently, he lives close to us. We might have met before. My husband nor anyone in his family mentioned this person, ever! Should I just leave it alone, or should I probe some more to see

if I can get more informa-tion? -- PERPLEXED IN INDIANA

DEAR PERPLEXED: It appears the existence of this half-sibling is the skeleton in your husband’s family closet. If I were you, I’d be careful about rattling it. Ask your husband if he’s willing to share what he knows. If he is interested in pursuing more informa-tion, offer to help him. But unless he is, I do not advise starting to dig.

P.S. Because the father reached out to make amends, the half-brother may try to contact his sib-lings. But don’t count on it.

DEAR ABBY: I have been married for four months. My husband and I love each other very much. Although he has asked me multiple times for sex, we have only made love twice.

My problem is, sex doesn’t interest me. In fact, the thought of it ter-rifies me. I hate saying no because I know it hurts

him, but I’m always scared that I won’t enjoy it. Or that if I do say yes, I’ll feel like it’s a chore just to make him happy. I know that’s the wrong mindset to have going into it.

I have apologized almost every time I turn him down. He always says I don’t need to be sorry and we’ll only do it when I’m comfortable, but I’m scared I might not ever be com-fortable with it. Plus I have doubts that I’ve ever had an orgasm. How should I approach this? -- SCARED NEWLYWED

DEAR SCARED: If you had experienced an orgasm, I assure you that you would not have forgot-ten the experience. You need to have at least two honest conversations -- the first with your husband, the second with your gyne-cologist. Your problem may be physical, emotional or a combination of the two.

A licensed psychologist can help you figure out the reason for your feelings and resolve them, or refer you and your husband to a sex therapist. The only thing you should NOT do is wait any longer to deal with this.

DEAR ABBY

HOROSCOPES | THE LAST WORD BY EUGENIA LASTARIES (March 21-April 19): A

change of pace will do you good. If you are bored or fed up, look at your options and make some inquiries. Stop waiting for someone else to take over or put you in a compromising position. ★★★★★

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Bring about change, but stay within your budget. You won't get ahead if you go into debt trying to do the impos-sible. Think, plan and execute your idea with precision, detail and the confidence that you played by the rules.★★

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You can make changes to your appearance, how you live or who you spend most of your time with as long as you don't neglect to watch your spending. Remain true to your word when deal-ing with sensitive issues. ★★★★

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Put more into your relationships with people at work and at home. Speak from the heart and avoid putting a negative slant on what others do or say. Acceptance coupled with positive reinforcement will encourage a better outcome. ★★★★

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Someone from your past will be a reminder of what it is you wanted to accomplish. Settle down and get into the hard work required to actually turn your plan into a reality. Know your limita-tions and set a strict budget. ★★★

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Get involved in activities that will broaden your perspective. Strive for expansion that is within your means and for the right reason. Don't follow what some-one else is doing. What works for him or her may not work for you. ★★★

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Someone will play with your emotions if you are too generous. Take the time to find out what's really going on before you decide to take part in someone else's plan. Don't feel obliged to help others. Do your own thing. ★★★

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Look for new ways to use your skills. Ask questions and sign up for seminars that will emphasize what's trending and what's economically feasible for you to pursue. Know your boundaries and look for a plan that suits your budget. ★★★★

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Stick to the truth. If you give someone the wrong impression, you will end up paying for your mistake. Concentrate on home, family and making positive changes that will help improve your relationships with the people you care about most. ★★

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A joint venture may tempt you, but caution will be required. Someone's bravado and finesse are likely to draw you into something you will live to regret. Don't spend money you cannot afford to lose. Stick to what you do best. ★★★

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You may feel as if you need a change, but before you decide to jump in or out of your comfort zone, consider the con-sequences. If a relationship is suffer-ing, discuss the problem and potential solutions before you take action. ★★★

NFL OWNERS MEETINGS

It’s a catch: NFL owners approve simplified catch languageBy BARRY WILNERAssociated Press

ORLANDO — Maybe it’s too late for Jesse James and the Steelers or Zach Miller and the Bears.

No matter, the NFL has a simplified catch rule designed to eliminate con-fusion — and, the league hopes, controversy — about receptions.

Team owners unani-mously approved the new language Tuesday, with basically three elements

defining a catch:—having control of the

ball;—getting two feet down or

another body part;—making a football

move, such as taking a third step or extending the ball.

The committee cited overturned receptions by tight ends James and Miller last season among the doz-ens of plays they reviewed “dozens of times,” accord-ing to committee chairman Rick McKay, president of the Atlanta Falcons.

Late Tuesday, the owners rewrote the rule on using

the helmet, making it a 15-yard penalty for any play-er to lower his head to initi-ate any hit with the helmet.

While the offender could be disqualified, owners did not call for an automatic ejection on such a play — at least not yet. In college football, when a player is penalized for targeting and a replay review affirms it, he is ejected.

Also approved Tuesday was making permanent spotting the ball at the 25-yard line after a touch-back on a kickoff; allowing players on injured reserve

to be traded; and authoriz-ing a designated member of the officiating department to instruct on-field game officials to eject a player for a flagrant non-football act when a foul for that act is called on the field.

Withdrawn by the Jets was a proposal to limit defensive pass interference to 15 yards, the penalty in college, except for egregious incidents. The competition committee was not in favor of such a change, but McKay and football operations chief Troy Vincent said the idea

has “some momentum.” It is likely to come up again in future meetings.

Tabled was a proposal to allow an assistant coach whose team is still playing in the postseason to sign a contract to become head coach elsewhere. That’s been dubbed the “Josh McDaniels Rule” after the Patriots offensive coordi-nator agreed to become the Colts coach in January, then reneged and returned to New England soon after the Super Bowl.

That suggestion also is expected to come up at

future meetings, beginning in May at the Atlanta own-ers get-together.

Also tabled was whether to allow video on sideline Surface tablets that teams use now to view photos. McKay said the voters weren’t there to pass it.

On-field officials support-ed having a member of the staff in New York calling for an ejection in certain blatant circumstances that involve non-football acts such as fighting. They cited the difficulty of determin-ing the culprits in a fight or other such situations.

He even had his hand in the Jaguars new uniforms.

The team spent part of last year designing new uni-forms. The revamped ones will be unveiled April 19 at the team’s annual state of the franchise address. Most notably, the Jags are adding more teal to the jerseys and eliminating the two-tone helmets that had become as much a reason for ridi-cule in recent years as the team’s woeful record. The first version of the helmet was matte black.

Coughlin vetoed that color, instead opting for an old-school, shiny-black look.

“It was just a feeling of who we are, what we repre-sent,” Coughlin said. “That’s a very good look. It’s a solid look. As I said at one point in time, we have some guys that will be in the Hall of Fame and the connection will be very similar as we go forward. We just wanted a little bolder statement, and I think we got it.”

The Jaguars made a state-ment on the field in 2017. They won the AFC South for the first time in fran-chise history and earned a postseason berth for the first time in a decade.

The success coincided with Coughlin’s return, but it was far from a coincidence.

Team owner Shad Khan credited the two-time Super Bowl-winning coach with bringing some much-need-ed leadership to a franchise that had won 17 of 80 games across the five sea-sons before his return.

“And with that comes a sense of values and a sense of expectations and ability to deliver results,” Khan said.

Even though Coughlin has final say over all football decisions, his role along-side coach Doug Marrone and general manager Dave Caldwell has evolved.

“I was basically on the practice field for every practice and I was in the Saturday night meetings,” Coughlin said. “I did every-thing just like I normally would do (as the coach). I prepared just as if I was in that spot, the coaching spot, and I would do some things. Like Doug might ask me to look at something and prepare a tape for him to look at, and I would do that. I enjoy all of that.”

Winning surely helps, even in the press box.

Now, the Jaguars will try to build on their success amid external expecta-tions that haven’t been part of the franchise in a decade and haven’t been an annual occurrence since Coughlin’s heyday.

“Expectations are the easy part,” Khan said. “Delivering, that’s the hard part. I think what’s fun going forward is it’s expectations, but then a high degree of confidence

that we’re going to deliver.”

Khan calls removal of tarps ‘most important’

Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shad Khan calls per-manently removing tarps from EverBank Field “the most important thing” for the small-market franchise.

The Jaguars removed four tarps from the upper deck for the playoffs last season, opening up 3,500 additional seats.

The team announced in February it would keep the tarps off for good because of an increased demand for season tickets.

Khan says “the look it gives us is not a good look for the city; it’s not a good look for the Jags.”

The tarps became part of the stadium after Jacksonville had half of its home games blacked out on local television between 2001 and 2004.

JAGUARSContinued From 1B

The game took a turn in Bradford’s favor for good in the fourth inning with Fort White up 2-1. An error started the frame, allowing Savana Shealey to reach base, and after Harli Phillips followed with a single, Hildebran knocked a two-RBI double to put Bradford ahead 4-2.

Fort White pitcher Shelby Dubose retired the next two batters but couldn’t avoid more damage as Shianne Cassells scored Hildebran with an RBI single. Cassells then came in to score on Emily McCoy’s RBI single, giving the Tornadoes a 6-2 advantage.

Dubose pitched a complete game, giv-ing up four earned on 12 hits with two strikeouts. She had a 2-1 lead headed to the third thanks to Savana Terry’s sac fly RBI in the second and Raven Miles’ RBI single in the third.

“Shelby pitched a heck of a game. She did her job and we just didn’t do ours tonight,” Chad Padgett said.

The Lady Indians rallied back in the bottom half of the fourth with two runs, with Aubrey Callum scoring on an error and Terry delivering an RBI single. That ended Bradford pitcher Maggie Olive’s night after three earned runs on five hits with a strikeout.

The teams exchanged runs in the fifth, with Wiggins scoring on an error for Bradford and Miles hitting an RBI single

off of Shealey in relief to bring in Jennifer Allen. But the Tornadoes pushed the lead back out in the sixth, loading the bases to open the frame before Wiggins drove in two more runs to put her squad up 8-5.

Fort White had its chances over the final two innings against but were dealt with some misfortune.

Terry drew a walk to begin the sixth but following Victoria Smith’s sac bunt, Terry reached second base and then took off for third despite not receiving the sig-nal from assistant coach Chad Padgett and was promptly thrown out.

“I think she was hearing the other team say go and she said she thought it was us,” Michelle Padgett said. “When every-body’s cheering and coaching, sometimes it’s hard.”

A poor call from the umpire then ended all hopes of a comeback in the sev-enth. After Miles was hit by a pitch and reached third via a steal and an error, Callum drew a two-out walk to bring Jessica Burns to the plate. Burns laid down a bunt and appeared to beat out the throw at first base only for the umpire to call her out.

Instead of two on down two runs, it was game over for the Lady Indians.

“I had her bunting because the third baseman was playing behind the base on her,” Chad Padgett said.

“We still have a game lead on Bradford and we play Keystone Heights Thursday night and then P.K. Yonge. But they’ve got Santa Fe still and they beat Santa Fe the first time. It’s a crazy district.”

ROAR Continued From 1B

three straight frames during the District 5-5A tilt.

Fort White managed to record two runs in the seventh, but the rally was short-lived, falling to Keystone Heights 4-2 Tuesday night. The Indians certain-ly had chances to steal a victory, but untimely hitting plagued the tribe in their fourth straight loss.

“It’s called clutch hitting, and we didn’t do a very good job of it,” Fort White coach Rick Julius said after the game. “We didn’t take advantage of situations we were handed. It seems like every time we got to first [base] or second or second or third, we couldn’t come up with a big hit. [Keystone] did one heck of a job over there. Whenever they needed a big hit, they got it.”

Fort White ace Tyler Shelnut fin-ished with six strikeouts in five innings pitched. The sophomore standout shook off an unearned passed ball run in the third. Keystone Heights slugger Connor Osteen pushed the lead though on a two-run triple during the next inning. Shelnut gave up his third run in the fifth on a Gary Searle double.

“The old saying goes ‘two outs win ballgames’ and it’s the truth,” Julius said.

Despite stronger defensive play, especially from the night before (9-8

loss to Dixie County), coach Julius says his team still has plenty of room for improvement there.

“We gave the first run away on a strikeout passed ball,” he said of the first and fourth run. “Then the guy got a base-hit with a relay to home and seems like we forgot to tag the guy because I thought we had him out. It’s been a tough week.”

Fort White’s Wyatt McLaughlin came through with a sacrifice bunt in the seventh, which was followed up by Caleb Mathews’ RBI single. The Indians’ production in the batter’s box, though, came little too late as Keystone Heights snapped a four-game losing streak.

Keystone Heights (5-8, 3-4) broke out of its slump Tuesday while Fort White (5-7, 2-4) has now dropped five of its last six games. The Indians hope to turn things around entering the final stretch of the season. Fort White has six league contests remaining before the district tournament.

“The biggest thing is we just need to put a complete game together,” Julius added. “Nights that we hit the ball, we don’t play defense. You have to be able to pitch, play defense and swing the bat a little bit. We haven’t been able to put those three factors together.”

UP NEXT: Fort White travels to Bradford for another District 5-5A matchup Thursday night. Keystone Heights travels to Middleburg Thursday night.
