CATSKILL — Greene County sheriff candidate Diana Benoit addressed the Legislature Wednesday night regarding the future of the former county jail and the size and location of the new facility. Benoit recently joined forces with Catskill resident Cassidy Bua. Bua, along with a group of investors, expressed interest in purchasing the old jail at 80 Bridge St., Catskill, and repurposing the building. Sale of the property has to be approved by the county Legislature, Deputy Administrator Warren Hart said. The county has reserved $500,000 to demolish the old jail and the former sheriff’s office, which moved to

Coxsackie. A historic carriage house nearby will remain intact. “Our positions align,” Benoit said Thursday, referring to Bua. “We do need a jail in Greene County but it needs to be scaled back from what it is now and it should be in Catskill.” Given the state criminal justice reforms that will go into effect in January, including the elimination of cash bail, the size of the jail is too large, Benoit said. The county reduced the size to 48 beds after the reforms, which is expected to drop the price tag by $3.5 million. Benoit, a former state police investigator, is challenging Peter Kusminsky, another retired state police

ALBANY — State lawmakers passed a bill Wednesday granting expanded benefits and rights to farm workers around the state. Known as the Farm Laborers Fair Labor Practices Act, the bill gives farm laborers collective bargaining rights, workers’ compensation and unemployment benefits. The bill also addresses working conditions and includes a measure to require overtime pay for farm workers, Prior to the bill’s passage, farm laborers had been excluded from labor protections provided under the National Labor Relations Act and the Fair Labor Standards Act. “With the passage of this legislation, we will help ensure

every farm worker receives the overtime pay and fair working conditions they deserve,” Gov. Andrew Cuomo said in a statement. “The constitutional principles of equality, fairness and due process should apply to all of us.” But farm advocates say the bill will present challenges. “We were disappointed in the final bill because we had been working with legislators on a compromise,” said Steve Ammermann, manager of public affairs at the New York Farm Bureau. “While the bill would have been difficult for farmers as it stood on Saturday, on Sunday additional language was added that would ultimately make it unworkable for farmers and we See FARM A2

Festival organizers eye Rip revival By Sarah Trafton Columbia-Greene Media

CATSKILL — Village residents will celebrate the region’s history in a new way Saturday by honoring Rip Van Winkle. Rip Van Winkle — the iconic character in Washington Irving’s 1819 short story — has represented the village for almost two centuries. According to the legend, Rip falls asleep for 20 years in the Catskill Mountains and misses the American Revolution and other developments. A renewed interest in Rip was sparked after Village President Vincent Seeley proposed a rebranding of the village at the board’s Feb. 13 meeting. The project to give the village a new, unified and forward-looking image, would be done in consultation with a marketing firm

and could be funded in part with the help of U.S. Rep. Antonio Delgado, Seeley said. “Everything is on the table,” Seeley said in February. “We have to decide whether to transform our current image or completely start over. Maybe it’s time to retire the look and feel of Rip.” The conversation led to the development of Rip’s Awakening, a festival to pay homage to the region’s roots, conceived by Richard “Rip Van” Wagoner, Anthony Picardi and Gerry Ersken of Catskill. “It’s crazy to think that Anthony, Gerry and I started this whole thing less than six months ago back in February with the discussion of scrapping our beloved legend Rip,” WagSee RIP A2

had to oppose it.” One of the biggest concerns is the provision that workers are granted automatic overtime pay if they work seven consecutive days, even if they have not reached the overtime threshold of 60 hours for the week, Ammermann said. “The bill will force farms and farmers to push 60 hours of work into six days instead of seven. It could mean more work over the course of six days,” he said. “More importantly, it dismisses how weather can limit how many hours of work can be done in a day.” Another concern with the legislation is the provision that changes the definition of “family” for farm workers. “A lot of farms have extended family members working on them, like aunts and uncles, and this legislation would now make their participation on the farm part of the statute,” Ammermann said. “Family members would now be covered under this law, and we feel that is not a

The village’s historical assets have decreased over time, Nowack said. “To take another one down seems backwards to me,” Nowack said. The county does not have firm plans for the property at this time. Bua’s group wants to turn the building into a criminal justice museum for research opportunities and vocational training. “We want people to get vocational training and get help so they don’t end up in the jail system,” Bua said. Wayne Sheridan, who is involved in the project, hopes to bring in the Catholic Worker Movement to provide a safe space for recovering addicts, the homeless and people in need of transitional housing, he said. Sheridan said he supports the idea of a museum. “It would be dedicated to law enforcement and could date back to the 17th century,” he said. “It would be a great tourist attraction.” This type of museum is not unheard of, Sheridan said.Hudson has a museum dedicated to firefighting.

reasonable element of this bill.” Eric Ooms, co-owner of A. Ooms & Sons Farm in Kinderhook, also expressed concern with elements of the legislation, such as the wage board, which was cut from four members to three, eliminating the commissioner of agriculture. “This means overtime won’t remain at 60 hours for very long,” Ooms said. “They will lower the hours, which just means agriculture will have to evolve. We do that anyway, but part of what we have been able to offer workers over the years is as many hours as they wanted to work, within reason, but now farmers will only allow them to work up to the overtime limit, just like any other business.” Assemblyman Jake Ashby, R-107, opposed the bill, saying it would be harmful to local farms. “Our family farmers are the backbone of our upstate community and support one of the largest industries in our state,” Ashby said. “The majority of Democrats have entirely ignored that 98 percent of farms in our state are family-owned and operated, not the industrial farms which they like to scare the public with. Small agricul-

tural businesses will suffer because of misguided legislation from downstate politicians.” But supporters of the bill say it provides farm workers with basic protections long afforded to other workers, such as unemployment benefits, collective bargaining rights and worker’s compensation. “Farm workers have been excluded from these basic rights and protections, ever since President Roosevelt signed into law the National Labor Relations Act of 1935,” said Jose Chapa, legislative campaign coordinator for the Justice for Farmworkers Coalition. “Farm workers have been exploited for their labor for far too long. I am happy to see that New York has finally taken a step closer towards equality.” Andrianna Natsoulas, executive director of the Northeast Organic Farming Association of New York, said there were compromises and the state reached out for input from both farmers and farm workers. “One of our biggest concerns was overtime pay. The original overtime pay would have kicked in once 40 hours was hit. The compromise is at 60 hours per

week. That is a compromise,” Natsoulas said. “But we are still concerned about how it will be implemented. There will be a wage board, so there is still some uncertainty about that.” Assemblyman Chris Tague, R-102, said the legislation could drive some farms out of business. “I severely doubt the sponsors of this bill understand the impact it’s going to have,” Tague said. “Those who support this bill obviously have no sense of what it takes to be a farmer nor care what this bill would do to the thousands of families who have operated farms upstate for generations.” State Sen. George Amedore voted against the bill. “This legislation is an attack on the number one industry in New York state,” Amedore said. “It’s bad policy that will devastate our farms.” Farming has had some tough times in recent years, Ammermann said. Between 2012 and 2017, New York state lost roughly 2,100 farms, or about 6% of farms in the state. “Times are tough for farmers and this will undoubtedly make it tougher,” Ammermann said.

to the pocket parks that Cultivate Catskill has worked on,” Wagoner said. “They are not used to their full potential.” Evening performances at Dutchman’s Landing will include Southbound and Wylde Blu, Wagoner said. “The rebranding plan made no sense to me,” Wagoner said. “There is no need to rebrand Catskill. We already have a historical mascot that represents art, literature and history to represent our village. There’s no need to put a new face on our village.” To appeal to young audiences, the event will include a scavenger hunt for Henry Hudson’s “lost treasure,” Wagoner said. “Kids will go from store to store collecting pouches of treats, prizes and gift certificates with a chance of winning one of 12 bikes donated by R.C. Lacy’s,” Wagoner said. Registration will be held from 12:30-2:30 p.m. at Salem’s Moon Magic and More, 408 Main St. Activities will centralize at Dutchman’s Landing,“There will be some really great food vendors, games, and a whole bunch of raffles and silent auctions of art and gift baskets donated buy local artists and businesses to entertain and celebrate the awakening of our dear, beloved Rip Van Winkle taking us into the evening,” he

said. Fireworks at the Thomas Cole National Historic Site will be visible from the park, Wagoner said. Wagoner hopes to remind residents of the heart and soul of the village, he said. “We are the birthplace of American art and literature,” Wagoner said. With the current population of artists, musicians and authors in the area, there is no need to change that reputation, he said. “We should support what we have,” he said. “There is no need to sacrifice who we are and hope for change.” The event and funds for statue repairs were all donated, Wagoner said. “We could have never done this without the amount of community support and outreach that has been simply amazing,” he said. “It’s easy to see just how much Rip means to so many people in our community and we look forward to building on what we’ve started in the years

to come.” Village President Vincent Seeley wants to see the event on a larger scale, he said. “The event needs to be rolled up to a countywide event,” he said. “Rip not only has roots in the village of Catskill but the story relates to the Catskill mountains. I would love to see this festival include other mountain townships.”

To save the old facility, Benoit said it would be beneficial. “If we sell the building, we save $500,000, we have the potential to make money from the sale and we preserve history,” she said. The jail opened in 1905. Kusminsky said he would not object to saving the building as long as it does not become a burden for taxpayers. Meg Nowack, with Historic Catskill, emphasized the historical significance of the property to the Legislature. “The East side of the village is a nationally registered historic area,” Nowack said Thursday. “That is nothing to sneeze that.” In addition to getting permission from the state Historic Preservation Office, demolition plans must be reviewed by the village planning board, she said. When the buildings were constructed, people were relying on horse power, Nowack said. “To ignore that legacy is irresponsible in a sense and it’s really sad,” she said. “They worked really hard to build those buildings and we’re just going to ignore that. It’s disrespectful.”

investigator, in Tuesday’s primary for the Republican nomination to run for sheriff. Kusminsky said Thursday the size of the jail is appropriate. “Forty-eight beds actually translates to one male pod with 32 cells,” he said. “Commission of Corrections requires 10% be open. You need one or two medical and one or two for one-onone observation, which would put us in the 26 range.” Moving the jail from Catskill to Coxsackie does not make sense, Benoit said. “A majority of the people we will be housing there will need to go to county court,” she said. “It makes sense to keep it in Catskill. We are going to incur greater transportation costs.” Benoit and Bua asked lawmakers to reconsider siting of the jail and look for a suitable site in Catskill. The board did not respond to their request. County Administrator Shaun Groden said Wednesday

groundbreaking in Coxsackie is likely late next week. Kusminsky said he agreed that a more central location such as Catskill or Cairo would have been preferred, but he understands the county’s decision. “The county was given the property next to the two state facilities where there would be no issues of a correctional facility being located in a residential or commercial area,” Kusminsky said. Only about 30% of the transports go to county court, Kusminsky said. The county had considered several alternative sites for a new jail. One possibility was an unfinished subdivision behind Save A Lot in Coxsackie. “It was determined that it was the last developable piece of property that could come onto the village tax roll,” Groden said. “We did not want to take away that final frontier from the community.” The county also considered building the jail near the 911 center or the mental health building in Cairo, Groden said, but the configuration of the land was not right.

Even after the numerous obstacles and roadblocks along the way, here we are a day away with everything nicely falling into place.” The festival begins at noon with the unveiling of the restored Rip Van Winkle statue at the head of Main Street where it has stood for the past two decades. “The statue was restored using high-grade epoxy resin putty,” Wagoner said. “The wooden base needed to be removed so the concrete base was also extended to lift Rip up to a safer height.” The cost of supplies and manhours needed for restoration was around $2,500, Wagoner said. “It couldn’t have been accomplished without the great help of the crew at Village of Catskill DPW,” he said. Residents are fond of the statue, Village Trustee Joseph Kozloski said earlier this year. “People are always asking in the spring when he’s going to be out,” Kozloski said. “We want to draw attention

Judge sets $5K bail for alleged Hudson shooter By Amanda Purcell Columbia-Greene Media

HUDSON — Bail was set at $5,000 for a suspected gunman in a shooting Tuesday when a stray bullet hit an empty school bus on State Street, police said. City Court Judge Brian Herman set bail after Kevron Lee was arraigned Wednesday in Hudson City Court on three felonies: first-degree reckless endangerment, a class D felony; third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, a class A felony; and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, a class C felony, according to the Hudson Police Department on Wednesday. More than 125 bags of heroin were seized from Lee’s car after search warrants were executed Tuesday night, police said. Officers also recovered ammunition and a box for a .380-caliber pistol. Lee has no pistol permit on file, Police Chief L. Edward Moore said. Lee was also charged with two misdemeanors: fourthdegree criminal mischief and seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, both class A misdemeanors. He was also ticketed for unlawful possession of marijuana. No injuries were reported from the shooting. A stray bullet allegedly struck an unoccupied school bus that was parked on the 500 block of State Street. The shooting stemmed from an argument between Lee and another man who told officers the gunman was trying to shoot at him, Hudson police said. Moore said Tuesday the man did not go into detail on what the argument was about. The school bus driver, who was between runs, was likely on a break when the shooting occurred, Moore said. Search warrants were executed by city police Tuesday night for Lee’s car and his listed address on the 200 block of State Street. The heroin and ammunition were found during the search, police said. Lee was later spotted by police on the 300 block of Columbia Street and arrested by Hudson police detectives, Moore said.

LANCE WHEELER FOR COLUMBIA-GREENE MEDIA

Hudson Police Lt. David Miller, left, and other officers investigate a shooting near the corner of Fifth and State streets on Tuesday.

Court records and archives show that Lee has been arrested numerous times in the city. The Columbia County District Attorney’s Office requested no bail given Lee’s arrest record. Most recently, Lee was charged in connection with a large raid in 2017 that netted several arrests after a series of shootings on State Street, police said. As a result of the raid, Lee was charged with seventhdegree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a class A misdemeanor. At that time, the defendant was accused of possessing 17 individual Oxycodone hydrochloride. Lee, and two other teens, were accused in 2012 of posting a picture on Facebook of them vandalizing and jumping on top of a Hudson police vehicle. The damage done to the vehicle included scratches and dents to the trunk and hood and a loosened front headlight, damage said to total $1,249, former Hudson Police Department Lt. Lynne Finn said at the time. Lee was charged in 2011 with third degree menacing on a Hudson City Court arrest warrant. Lee allegedly threatened to slap the victim, which caused the victim to fear for

his personal safety during a May 5 incident at 215 Harry Howard Ave. Lee is due back in city court Mon- Kevron Lee day to answer the charges related to the alleged shooting. The Columbia County District Attorney’s Office, state police and the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office assisted city police with its investigation.

Bumps in the road and sensors and cameras will read E-ZPass tags and take photos of license plates. Bills will be sent to registered owners of vehicles that don’t have E-ZPass. Drivers who pay using the Tolls by Mail system will pay the same toll rate they paid when they were cash customers; E-ZPass customers with New York accounts will continue to receive a 5% discount. Once the cashless tolling system is in place, existing toll plazas will be removed in phases. The product of all the technology may be cashless, but the technology itself is far from cashless. The Thruway Authority plans to spend $355 million to make this happen. That is a colos-

sal investment when the amount of travel time saved and the loss of jobs is figured into the project. Cashless travel on the state Thruway is probably the inevitable outcome of the 21st-century cashless society where transactions are completed with plastic and electronic currency. Two things are certain: We will get to our destinations quicker and waiting in long tollbooth lines will belong to a different age. We hope the Thruway Authority finds ways to reduce the impact of lost jobs, increase safety at the gantries and make sure all motorists pay their bills. The wheels of our cars will turn fast. The wheels of bureaucracy often grind slowly.

Path has been laid out for holding Khashoggi’s killers accountable The Washington Post

Thirteen minutes before Jamal Khashoggi entered the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul on Oct. 2, 2018, the head of a hit team that was dispatched to intercept him asked the team’s forensic doctor about dismembering the journalist’s body. It would, replied Salah Tubaigy, “be easy. Joints will be separated. . . . If we take plastic bags and cut it into pieces, it will be finished.” Just 37 minutes after that conversation, and 24 minutes after Khashoggi entered the consulate, sounds could be heard that Turkish investigators later judged to be those of a saw. These shocking details come from a penetrating and disturbing report on Khashoggi’s killing, issued Wednesday by Agnes Callamard, the U.N. special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions. Callamard, who spent five months investigating The Washington Post contributing columnist’s killing, was stonewalled by Saudi authorities. Her conclusions are unambiguous: “Mr. Khashoggi has been the victim of a deliberate, premeditated execution, an extrajudicial killing for which the state of Saudi Arabia is responsible under international human

rights law.” Yet eight months after his death, there has been no credible process for holding those responsible accountable — including Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Callamard’s report points out that Maher Mutreb, the leader of the hit team, was an employee of Saud al-Qahtani, a top aide to the crown prince who “personally directed a campaign targeting activists and political opponents,” and briefed the hit team about Khashoggi before it departed from Riyadh. It cites “credible evidence” that “the decision to kill Mr. Khashoggi was made before the plane carrying Dr. Tubaigy and Mr. Mutreb had left Saudi Arabia.” As for Mohammed bin Salman, Callamard reports, “every expert consulted finds it inconceivable that an operation of this scale could be implemented without the Crown Prince being aware, at a minimum, that some sort of mission of a criminal nature, directed at Mr. Khashoggi, was being launched.” Similarly, she concludes that the “destruction of evidence” carried out after Oct. 2 to cover up the killing “could not have taken place without the Crown Prince’s awareness.” Callamard says she did

not reach a conclusion about the guilt of Mohammed bin Salman or Qahtani, but she found that “there is credible evidence meriting further investigation, by a proper authority, as to whether the threshold of criminal responsibility has been met.” Neither is among the 11 people being prosecuted in a secret Saudi trial; she says that trial “will not deliver credible accountability” and should be suspended. The report calls on the United Nations and the United States to launch their own criminal investigations of the killing. U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres, Callamard points out, “should be able to establish an international follow-up criminal investigation without any trigger by a State.” The FBI, she found, could also open an investigation, because Khashoggi lived in Virginia. She recommends that Congress hold hearings “to determine the responsibility of high-level Saudi officials, and demand access to the underlying classified materials.” In the meantime, sanctions should be applied to the crown prince and his foreign assets, “until and unless evidence is provided and corroborated that he carries no responsibilities for this execution.”

OUR VIEW

All New York State Thruway travelers, in the not-toodistant past, pulled coins out of their wallets and change purses and handed them to a toll collector as they slowed down at the tollbooth. Then in 1997, the state Thruway Authority unveiled E-ZPass, which allowed drivers to pass through tollbooths without handing over tickets and money. Now, another Thruway revolution is at hand as the Authority prepares to introduce cashless tolling on the 450-mile highway in 2020. Here is how it will work. The Authority will install gantries and cashless tolling equipment. Once operational, drivers will pass under the gantries, without stopping,

Former vice president Joe Biden is forever a gaffe machine. But he managed to outdo himself Tuesday night. On the eve of Juneteenth, marking the end of slavery in the United States and barely 12 hours before the start of the first hearing on reparations in the House in a decade, Biden touted his bipartisan bona fides to a group of wealthy donors by talking up his ability to work with such supporters of segregation as the late senators James Eastland of Mississippi and Herman Talmadge of Georgia. “At least there was some civility,” Biden said. “We got things done. We didn’t agree on much of anything. We got things done.” Biden quickly followed up with his usual sort of salubrious comments to his wealthy patrons. He assured his audience that no, he doesn’t “demonize” them for their wealth. His plans to tackle inequality? “No one’s standard of living will change, nothing would fundamentally change.” On one hand, a giant yuck, but not so bad. Almost no one believes Biden’s a racist. And if one is in a generous frame of mind, one could read his comments on wealth inequality to mean that he doesn’t think members of his audience would notice paying more in taxes, or a cut in their net worth. In true Biden fashion, it’s not actually clear what he meant. But, on the other hand, the combination of Biden’s comments highlighted a truth about segregation and our age of inequality, one many people would just as soon not acknowledge: The two are not unconnected. When we speak and think about segregation, we often

refer to the most visible horrors such as lynchings and forcing African-Americans to stand at the back of the bus. But as Wednesday’s hearings on Capitol Hill made clear, the idea of reparations isn’t just rooted in the fact that many believe the United States has yet to apologize adequately for the harm done by the enslavement of millions of black people over the course of more than two centuries. It’s also about the damage economic subjugation did, and how that ghastly legacy still affects our present society. It is all but impossible to separate the age of inequality from the discrimination black people continue to face. There is a significant wage gap between blacks and whites. Almost 1 in 3 black children lives in poverty, compared with little more than 1 in 10 white children. The unemployment rate for AfricanAmericans is twice as high as it is for whites. African American men are more likely to do prison time than white men. African Americans are discriminated against when they seek medical care, with the result that African American women are more likely to die of everything from pregnancy complications to breast cancer than white women. So it should come as no surprise that increasing inequality and especially the financial tsunami of the Great Recession have hit African-American households harder than white ones. The wealth of AfricanAmerican households - not as high as white households’ wealth to begin with - fell significantly over the past three decades, while the wealth of whites continued to rise, albeit at a much slower rate than it did for the richest Americans. One major reason for this? Housing. For all the attention

paid to the stock market, most American households’ largest financial assets are their homes. But for decades, African Americans have found obstacle after obstacle to homeownership. In the aftermath of World War II, few AfricanAmericans benefited from the GI Bill, with many suburbs discouraging them from moving in at all. The neighborhoods they lived in or moved to were “redlined” by the banks for decades of the 20th century - that is to say, financial institutions avoided investing in minority neighborhoods. Even today, according to a study published last year by the Brookings Institution, owner-occupied homes in black neighborhoods are undervalued by $48,000 on average compared with similar residences in areas with few black residents. Moreover, when the Obama administration bailed out the banks while offering homeowners significantly less help, African American families suffered, thanks in no small part to the fact that they were more likely to be targeted by unscrupulous lenders and mortgage brokers who offered up subprime loans, and financially abusive refinancings even when they qualified for better terms. So it’s not all that surprising that Biden’s evocation of segregationists came at a tony fundraiser. The obstacles facing African-Americans come from more than deliberate malice. Their lives and finances are also impacted by the obliviousness of the greater society to past injuries and the ongoing reality of what they face on a day-to-day basis. No one should be boasting about his or her ability to work with segregationists, even if it was several decades ago.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Declawing cats unacceptable To the editor: So, the Humane Society condones abuse of cats. After stating that declawing cats should be legal, they contradict themselves and say they don’t condone it. I’ll add that to the list of reasons I recommend people not support them. Besides only looking out for their own interests, the “humane society” in Columbia County is not what they purport themselves to be, but that’s another letter. Let’s start with their implication that the tragedy of cats undergoing unnecessary extensive surgery will be alleviated because veterinarians are

going to “discuss” the operation with people so they understand what they are doing to the poor kitties. They are talking about the same veterinarians that also will crop and dock dogs at the owners’ whims despite the pain and long-term contraindications, despite the fact that the American Veterinarian Medical Association recommends against cropping and docking, and despite the fact that those procedures are illegal in countries more civilized than ours. We can trust those same veterinarians who profit by mutilating perfectly healthy dogs to educate their

clients and thus risk not making more money by performing more cruel surgical procedures? I know people who declawed their cats and ‘would never do it again” because the cats became reclusive and neurotic afterward. If you don’t value your cat more than your furniture, then don’t get a cat! Cats are not the only pets for people who cannot be around animals with claws for whatever reasons. Some cats bite, so will you remove their teeth, too? JAN KIBLER GHENT

Florida city will pay hackers $600,000 to get its computer systems back Rachel Siegel The Washington Post

A saga that began with a municipal employee opening a corrupted email has forced a small Florida city to take the extraordinary step of agreeing to pay nearly $600,000 to the hackers who paralyzed their computer systems. With Riviera Beach’s records held hostage, its city council voted unanimously to pay 65 bitcoin to the hackers - a tab that will be picked up by the city’s insurance carrier. For the past three weeks, city employees have not been able to access their emails, emergency dispatchers couldn’t log calls into computers, and workers and vendors had to be paid with paper checks. Even cops had to dig through closets at the police headquarters to find paper traffic citations, The Palm Beach Post reported. Though city spokeswoman Rose Anne Brown told the Associated Press there is no guarantee the city’s records will be returned after the hackers collect, outside security consultants said paying the ransom was the best course of action. The culprits insisted that the ransom be paid in Bitcoin, a cryptocurrency that is difficult trace. Before the city council approved the ransom payment, it decided to spend nearly $1

million on new computers, hardware and other system upgrades. “We are relying on their (the consultants’) advice,” Brown told AP. The city did not immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday morning. The waterfront suburb of West Palm Beach joins a growing list of ransomware victims, which include governments and businesses alike. In May, Baltimore said it would not pay hackers $76,000 after its systems were attacked. The city is still trying to recover, and this week, Gov. Larry Hogan, a Republican, appointed Maryland’s first statewide chief information security officer to help guard against cyber threats. Two Iranians were indicted by the U.S. government last year for launching more than 200 ransomware attacks, including those that hit the cities of Atlanta and Newark. Those hackers collected more than $6 million in ransom and caused $30 million in damage to computer systems. The FBI did not immediately respond to a request for comment. But the agency told the AP that 1,493 ransomware attacks were reported in 2018. Victims, including individuals, paid $3.6 million to hackers — an average of $2,400 per hit.

President Trump’s threat of major deportations sparks fear, confusion Jeremy Redmon and Ashley Soriano The New York Times News Service

ATLANTA — Federal immigration authorities said this week they will ramp up enforcement, though they offered few specifics, sowing fear and confusion among Atlantaarea immigrants and drawing sharp criticism from Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms. Acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Mark Morgan declined to say how many and which people would be targeted, or where and when ICE’s efforts would begin. But he highlighted Central American families who have been ordered deported in absentia after failing to win asylum here and then skipping their immigration proceedings. Their presence in the U.S., he said in a conference call with reporters Wednesday, “is evidence that the system has failed and our removal efforts need to increase.” President Donald Trump announced on Twitter Monday that ICE next week would “begin the process of removing the millions of illegal aliens who have illicitly found their way into the U.S. They will be removed as fast as they come in.” Trump fired off his tweet a day before he announced his reelection campaign in Orlando, where he continued to sound off about immigration. There were an estimated 375,000 immigrants living illegally in Georgia in 2017, down from a high of 425,000 a decade ago, according to the Pew Research Center. Five county sheriffs in Georgia -- including those in Cobb and Gwinnett counties -- have teamed up with ICE to help identify unauthorized immigrants in their jails and help deport them. In contrast, Bottoms decided last year to bar the city jail from holding ICE’s detainees, prompting a rebuke from Vice President Mike Pence during his visit to Atlanta in March. Bottoms has said her move was prompted by the Trump administration’s “zero-tolerance” immigration policy on the southwest border, which led to the separation of many immigrant families last year. “Rather than reforming a broken system, their plan is to detain and deport men, women and children,” the mayor said in a prepared statement Wednesday. “This president is placing our country’s humanity in peril, creating a nightmare for families just wanting a fair shot at the American dream.” Immigration attorney

MARCO BELLO, BLOOMBERG

President Donald Trump gestures while speaking during a rally in Orlando, Florida, on June 18, 2019. For one night in a packed arena in Orlando, Trump tried to recapture the insurgent energy and anything-might-happen feel of the campaign that fueled his bid for the White House four years ago.

Arturo Corso said his law office in Gainesville, Georgia, began fielding anxious phone calls soon after Trump’s Monday tweet. “Of course, just like when Trump was first elected, my clients that are noncitizens are very scared, very nervous,” Corso said. “They don’t know exactly what to make of it.” The tension was palpable Wednesday at Plaza Fiesta, a cavernous and bustling shopping center near Atlanta that features homemade wooden vases, clay pots and traditional Mexican-style dresses. Among the shoppers were Carlos, his wife and young son. A Mexican family without legal status in the U.S., they declined to give their last name. “Many people are starting to be afraid about going into the streets or to work,” said Carlos as his wife asked him about buying a Jesus figurine pinned to a gold-embossed cross. Ashley Portillo, 17, said her Mexican mother is similarly worried. “She’s always been cautious, but she’s more cautious now, especially since (Trump) has been posting about the ICE raids,” said Portillo, who was born in the U.S. “I feel like everybody is more cautious now.” But Christopher Decca, a native of Venezuela who obtained asylum in the U.S., sympathizes with the president. “Trump has to deal with a lot of problems he didn’t create,” said Decca, 49. “Maybe if he has another four years he can do something about it.” Immigration laws prevent the Trump administration

from immediately deporting asylum-seeking Central American families, who make up a majority of the migrants arrested at the border. The operation planned by ICE officials would instead target those in the interior of the country who have been issued a final removal order or missed their court date. An operation targeting families also would not immediately result in the deportation of millions of unauthorized immigrants, according to The New York Times, citing unnamed government officials who were not authorized to speak publicly about the details of the coming operation or Trump’s tweet. ICE charters planes that carry only a couple of hundred migrants back to Central America daily. While roughly 1 million unauthorized immigrants have been issued removal orders, many of them may be appealing their cases and cannot be deported. The roughly 6,000 deportation officers in ICE also do not know the locations of many of the migrants. Juan Patino, who sells snacks in a small booth in Plaza Fiesta, said he is not afraid. He came here from Mexico in 1987 looking for work and says he is now a U.S. citizen. So are his wife and three of his children, while four children are in Mexico. The majority of Hispanics who come to the U.S., he said, come here for work, like him. “There are bad immigrants who do bad things,” said Patino, 83. “But the majority are good people who come here to work.”

Bloomberg News (TNS)

NEW YORK — Chris Cox, the National Rifle Association’s chief lobbyist who was viewed widely as a future leader of the gun rights group, has been suspended from his job. The move came after Oliver North, the former NRA board president, was ousted from the organization in April for attempting to lead a coup against Wayne LaPierre, the executive vice president of the NRA who has long served as the organization’s leader. North alleged that LaPierre used the group to enrich himself. As part of the infighting, the NRA sued Ackerman McQueen Inc., its longtime advertising firm, and in turn Ackerman cut ties with the group. On Wednesday night, the NRA filed a lawsuit against North, arguing that he didn’t have the right to legal fees from the NRA. The lawsuit alleges that Cox participated in the failed coup to oust LaPierre from the organization.

Yaslin Turruviates, a U.S. citizen of Mexican descent, said her godmother doesn’t have legal papers, which makes it hard for her to travel in America. “Any day they can stop her, and she can be deported,” said Turruviates, 20. “There are little kids who rely on their parents who are immigrants. And if they get deported, who are they going to be going to? Many immigrants have their lives here and don’t have anything over there.” Corso, the Gainesville immigration attorney, is offering callers some simple advice: Don’t panic, limit what you tell any federal immigration authorities you encounter and quickly adjust your legal status, if possible. He added he is skeptical of the president’s claim, pointing out federal immigration authorities have limited resources, including officers and detention beds.

Chris Cox (L), executive director of the NRA-ILA, and Wayne LaPierre, NRA vice president and CEO attend the NRA annual meeting of members at the 148th NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits on April 27, 2019 in Indianapolis, Indiana. A statement was read at the meeting announcing that NRA president Oliver North, whose seat at the head table remained empty at the event, would not serve another term. There have been recent reports of tension between LaPierre and North, with North citing financial impropriety within the organization.

Cox is described as “once thought by some to be a likely successor for Mr. LaPierre.” Cox’s suspension was reported earlier by The New York Times. Cox’s spokeswoman told The Times that

he played no role in the coup. A lawyer for North, Brendan Sullivan, declined to comment but said he would respond in a court filing. NRA representatives didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.

Dana V. Flax Memorial game set for tonight By Logan Weiss Columbia-Greene Media

VALATIE — For the third year in a row, Ichabod Crane alumni, students and community members will remember a special Ichabod Crane student. The Third annual Dana V. Flax memorial game will take place tonight at the Ichabod Crane High School with a tip off at 7 p.m. Doors will be opened at 6:30 p.m. The goal of the memorial game is to raise funds for the Dana V. Flax scholarship. The scholarship is in memorial of former Ichabod Crane student, Dana Flax, who was treasured by friends and community for her sense of individuality, kindness, openness to learning and humor. Flax passed away in 2007 during her freshman year at Goucher College in Baltimore. “Dana was an incredibly compassionate individual at an age when that is difficult to come by,” Ian Michaud said, “She was deeply funny in a way that made everyone feel like they were in on the joke.” The scholarship was formed in 2008 by Dana’s two best friends, Mandy Badirad and Rachel Gevlin, according to friend of Dana and fellow Ichabod Crane alumni, Ian Michaud. “The fundraiser game has been around since 2017. This is our third year hosting it at Ichabod Crane.” Every year, a graduating senior of Ichabod Crane who embodies the same characteristics as Dana is awarded the scholarship. The scholarship is valued at 500 dollars. “The recipient approaches life with a strong sense of individuality, openness to learning, kindness and a sense of humor,” according to Michaud. The charity game has grown bigger with every passing year and this year will not disappoint. There will be 18 players

GREENPORT — The Hudson River Collegiate Baseball League Storm took on the Knights at Greenport Town Park on Tuesday and came away with an 8-7 victory. Field conditions where tough due to all of the rain the area has been experiencing. The Storm assigned pitching responsibilities to former Chatham High School standout Aidan Jackson, who now attends HVCC. The first inning did not go as planned as three consecutive ground balls could not be handled with the sloppy field conditions, which loaded the bases for the Knights. Big Ryan Weiss from SUNY Oswego stepped into the batter’s box and hit a monster grand slam home run giving the Knights a 4-0 lead. Jackson was not deterred, pitching six innings and allowing 14 hits, seven runs (six earned), only one walk with two strikeouts. Storm Manager Ed DuPont made the call to the bullpen to get Jimmy Miller, who played ball at Saugerties High School and now pitches for MCLA. Miller pitched 2 2/3 inning and dominated the Knights. He did not allow a hit, a walk or any runs. DuPont again called on Union College Adam Hall to close out the game. The lefty did just that, getting Pat Sullivan, the former Catskill High School player, to ground out to second base for the final out of the game. The Knights Manager Josh Johnson gave the ball to Chatham High School and SUNY Maritime commit Curtis Buchan. Buchan lasted just 2 1/3 innings allowing five hits, three walks and five runs with three stikeouts. Nick Shallo from HVCC appeared in relief, pitching 1.2 innings, granting two hits and one walk. Shallo was lifted for Joe Rizzo from the College of Saint Rose, who walked three batters and did not get an out in his appearance. Rizzo was charged

with three earned runs. Johnson went to the bullpen to get Brandon Preusser, the former Taconic Hills Titan, who pitched four innings and allowed one hit and four walks with two strikeouts. The Storm rallied to score eight runs in the game and the Knights added 3 runs late to make it close. The Storm had a total of eight hits. They were lead by Kurt Forsell from St John Fisher who went 2 for 4 with 2 singles and a walk. Salisbury University’s Brandon Bonesteel went 1 for 2 with a single and three walks, Joe Dwy, another Taconic Hills product, had a single, a walk and one RBI, Christian Baaki, who has committed to Vassar College, went 1 for 2 with a single and a walk, Matt Ferriero, who attended Ravena-Coeymans-Selkirk High School and now Fairfield University, went 1 for 3 with a single, a walk and one RBI while Jeremiah Ernst went 1 for 4 with a single and two RBI. The Knights had a busy night at the plate getting 14 hits. George Cox provided instant offense in his first game back with the Knights. Cox, from HVCC, went 3 for 4 with a double and two singles, CGCC’s Tyler Drahushuk went 2 for 5 with two singles, Sullivan went 2 for 5 with two singles and added two RBI, Ryan Weiss went 2 for 4 with a home run, a single and four RBI, Maple Hill High School and Bentley University bound Tyler Hanrahan was 2 for 4 with two singles, Brandon Preusser was 1 for 4 with a single, Brien Hollowood from SUNY New Paltz was 1 for 4 with a single and an RBI and Seamus Wolfe from St Lawrence University went 1 for 3 with a single and two walks. “This was a tough game, Storm manager Ed DuPont said. “Field conditions really made things difficult. Our guys worked hard tonight to get this win. I’m really happy for them.”

participating in the game with players coming from as close as Albany and as far away as Austin, TX. Players of all skill level will participate with Section II players up to collegiate players from Division I, II and III. “The team names are always eclectic and are drawn from Dana’s rich past.” Michaud said, “This year we have a matchup of Team Demon Beast versus The Runks (a nickname for a dog she had).” The names of teams and previous teams come from Dana’s artistic endeavors. In prior years, team names have been Team Funky, Team Fresh, Team Gerald Fitzgerald and Team Ramses. During the first charity game in 2017, 2,494 dollars were raised during the first game ever. In 2018, the game raised 2,599 dollars. The results in 2018 were Team Gerald Fitzgerald defeat-

David Ortiz shooting was case of mistaken identity, officials say James Wagner and Dionisio Soldevila The New York Times News Service

David Ortiz, the former Boston Red Sox slugger, was not the intended target of a shooting in the Dominican Republic that seriously wounded him last week, the authorities in the country said in a news conference Wednesday. It was a stunning revelation in a case that has captivated many in the baseball-crazed nation and across the world. The situation laid out by the authorities was far more complex than what had previously been revealed. The shooting, they said, had been ordered by a man associated with a Mexican drug cartel who suspected his cousin had betrayed him and who ordered the cousin killed in an operation that went awry because Ortiz and the target were sitting together and wore similar outfits. During a 90-minute news conference, Jean Alain Rodríguez, the country’s top prosecutor, explained in detail what was believed to have led to the shooting on June 9, when Ortiz was shot in the back at a popular bar and then had emergency surgery before being transported to Boston. Rodríguez said both Ortiz and a friend named Sixto David Fernandez, the intended target of the shooting, were wearing dark shirts with yellow trim. The two were sitting at the same table at the Dial Bar and Lounge, a regular hangout for both in Santo Domingo, when a man sneaked up behind Ortiz and shot him in the back. Rodríguez also revealed for the first time the name of the man suspected of organizing the operation: It was Víctor Hugo Gómez, he said, a Dominican native wanted by U.S. officials and identified as a member or an associate of the Gulf Cartel, a large Mexican drug trafficking organization. Gómez is believed to be in the United States, said Ney Aldrin Bautista, the head of the Dominican Republic national police. Gómez, the authorities said, had an unspecified business relationship with Fernandez, his cousin, who runs a car repair shop and who has no known criminal history. But when Gómez was arrested on drug charges in 2011, he believed

Baseball fans hold up a sign in reference to the shooting of former Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz (34) during the the fifth between the Tampa Bay Rays and Los Angeles Angels at Tropicana Field.

Fernandez had given him away to the authorities, Bautista said. At the news conference in Santo Domingo, Bautista displayed security camera footage and photographs in an attempt to re-create how the shooting had unfolded. Several video clips showed a man identified by Bautista as Alberto Rodríguez Mota, who remains at large, arriving at the empty bar a few hours before Fernandez and Ortiz. Fernandez, a regular on Sunday nights at the bar, arrived at his reserved table and was later joined by Ortiz and Jhoel López, a local television host who is also friends with Ortiz. Just before 8 p.m., Bautista said, Mota took an obstructed photograph of the table where Fernandez and Ortiz sat, and then sent the photo, a description of clothing and the location of the table to one of the coordinators of the operation, who in turn shared the information with the hit men. Although Fernandez and Ortiz were wearing similar shirts, their pants were different colors, officials said. At a gas station nearby, they said, the men suspected of carrying out the attack assembled in several cars and on a motorcycle, which was driven by Eddy Feliz García and carried Rolfi Ferreira Cruz, who is suspected

of being the gunman. Ortiz, 43, was shot in the back, and the same bullet pierced López’s leg. “The darkness of the photo is what unfortunately led to the mistake against our David Ortiz,” Rodríguez said in Spanish. García and Cruz are among 11 people detained in connection with the case. Four other suspects remain on the loose. The Dominican Republic authorities have been under intense pressure over their handling of the Ortiz case. Their revelations Wednesday were met with repeated questioning by reporters at the news conference. How was it possible, they asked, for Ortiz — a 6-foot-3inch, 230-pound former baseball player who is one of the most recognizable figures on the island — to be confused with Fernandez, who appears to be smaller and of lighter complexion? “This is what the proof shows,” Rodríguez said. “In justice, we can’t base ourselves on rumors or stories. The proof is clear in regards to what happened, and we’re showing it here.” Rodríguez said that he had interviewed Ortiz at the clinic in Santo Domingo the day after the shooting and that Ortiz had told him that he did not receive any threats and did not know why

anyone would want to hurt him. Cruz, who was arrested last week, has told reporters from behind bars that he was confused by the description he received and that Ortiz was not the intended target. Bautista revealed security footage Wednesday that showed Mota lingering at the bar even though most of the crowd dispersed after the shooting. The authorities said the suspects were promised 400,000 Dominican pesos (about $7,800) for the attack. Gómez had requested the killing through suspects already in prison in the Dominican Republic, officials said, and they orchestrated it through Gabriel Alexander Pérez Vizcaíno and Mota, an old prison acquaintance of Gómez. The officials also said that Vizcaíno had briefly been held hostage by the other suspects, who had not been paid because the shooting wasn’t carried out on the intended target. Vizcaíno has since been detained. Ortiz, who had a second operation in Boston after the shooting and has been recovering at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, was upgraded this week to good condition, according to a statement provided by his wife, Tiffany Ortiz.

Islanders’ Lehner wins Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy Andrew Gross Newsday

Robin Lehner has never shied away from his troubled past. The Islanders goalie, who battled alcohol and pill addiction but has now been sober for more than a year while also undergoing medical treatment for mental-health issues, won the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy for perseverance and dedication at the NHL Awards Show in Las Vegas on Wednesday night. And Barry Trotz, whom Lehner thanked in his acceptance speech for “thinking about the human first, I’ve got to respect that,” won the Jack Adams Award as the top coach. He also won the award with the Capitals in 2016. Lehner indicated he wanted his example to help others. “I took that first step and it’s been life changing for me,” said Lehner, of going through rehab last offseason. “Got to keep pushing, end the stigma. I’m not ashamed to say I’m mentally ill. But that doesn’t mean mentally weak.” Lehner was also a finalist for the Vezina Trophy as the top goalie that was won by the Lightning’s Andrei Vasilevskiy. Lehner and Thomas Greiss also shared the Jennings Trophy, given to the goalies who have played at least 25 games for the team that allowed the fewest goals in the regular season. Lehner, who signed a oneyear, $1.5 million deal with the Islanders and is an impending unrestricted free agent after going 25-13-5 with a 2.13

goals-against average and a .930 save percentage, acknowledged to the media in Las Vegas his continued sobriety is a factor in his contract negotiations. The freeagent market opens on July 1. He joins Ed Westfall (1977) and Mark Fitzpatrick (1992) as

the only Islanders to win the Masterton, which is voted upon by the Professional Hockey Writers’ Association. “Wow, thank you,” Lehner said. “Everybody who voted for me. My fantastic wife who stuck this out with me. I want to thank the New York Islanders’

organization.” Trotz, after guiding the Capitals to the Stanley Cup in 2018, spearheaded a defensive turnaround in his first season with the Islanders. They had a 23-point improvement in the standings in going 48-27-7 and finishing second in the Metropolitan Division as they made the playoffs for the first time since 2016. They swept the Penguins in the first round before being swept by the Hurricanes. “I’d like to thank the New York Islanders’ organization for giving me a chance, especially Lou Lamoriello,” Trotz said. “This is a team award, you have to understand that. You can’t have the success without the buy-in from the players.” Hall of Famer Al Arbour (1979) is the only other Islanders coach to have won the award, which is voted upon by the NHL Broadcasters’ Association. Other award winners: The Lightning’s Nikita Kucherov (41 goals, 87 assists) won the Hart Trophy as the MVP as voted on by the PHWA and the Ted Lindsay Award as the most outstanding player, as voted on by the players. The Flames’ Mark Giordano won the Norris Trophy as the top defenseman with 165 of the 171 first-place votes. The Canucks’ Elias Pettersson (28 goals, 38 assists) earned 151 of the 171 first-place votes for the Calder Trophy as the rookie of the year. The Bruins’ Don Sweeney was named the general manager of the year. Lamoriello finished fifth in the voting.

Nationals’ Scherzer has night we won’t forget Barry Svrluga The Washington Post

WASHINGTON - His normal sneer and snarl weren’t enough, apparently, so Max Scherzer added something black, blue, disfigured, badass. Who’s to say he didn’t whisper to Bob Henley, the coach charged with throwing batting practice to the Washington Nationals’ starting pitchers Tuesday, to fire one just a little up, just a little in? June baseball can get kind of slow, and the sub-.500 Nats could use a lift. What if he broke his nose - then pitched the next night anyway? Might be sort of fun. Of the 4 1/2 seasons in which Scherzer has graced us with his presence - 4 1/2 seasons that include two no-hitters and a 20-strikeout game - Wednesday night may have been the most Max moment of them all, peak Scherzer. His face was broken and grotesque because of that fouled-off bunt attempt a day earlier. He could have gone right onto the set of “Game of Thrones” without reporting to makeup. How could he pitch? Are you kidding? How could he not pitch? Whatever happens in this Nationals season - a season that took a step toward resurrection with a doubleheader sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday - we will have this gem, Scherzer at his competitive finest. His final line in the box score reads as Max at his healthiest: seven innings, four hits, no runs, two walks and 10 strikeoutsin a 2-0 victory in the nightcap. Nothing out of the ordinary. See you again in five days. This was different. “I wanted to pitch,” he said. “I didn’t feel any p-” and he stopped himself. “Doesn’t feel great. But I wanted to pitch.” He tried to downplay it: “On a scale of one to 10, the pain today was a zero,” and “Trust me, this looks a lot worse than it actually feels.” And that’s good, because it looks terrible. Don’t think, though, that the clubhouse doesn’t notice. It does. For a team that’s fighting to stay afloat, that matters. “It really is one of the most impressive things I’ve seen in a while,” said second baseman Brian Dozier, who homered in both games. “He’s probably the best pitcher of our generation, and you don’t get that status unless you take the ball every fifth day - no matter if you’re doing good, doing bad, you have a broken nose. You always want the ball.” It is, in baseball, the quality most admired. When Scherzer left the park Tuesday night, his face heavily bandaged, he was asked by various people how uncomfortable he was. Didn’t matter, he responded. He would be pitching. He would be @!#&% pitching, thank

Max Scherzer would not be denied Wednesday night — on the mound or in the dugout seeking highfives.

you very much. When Dozier saw Scherzer preparing Wednesday afternoon, he ribbed him, “Ahh, you’re going to pitch,” as if he wasn’t sure. “He kind of gave me the go-to-hell look,” Dozier said. On a normal day, that look could be startling. From behind Scherzer’s discolored eye, pull the covers over your head. From even before his first-pitch slider for a strike to Phillies shortstop Jean Segura, it was obvious Scherzer wasn’t treating this as any other start. The version of Dr. Dre’s “Still D.R.E.” that pumped through Nationals Park as Scherzer warmed up seemed a little louder, the bass a hair heavier. Scherzer must have felt it, too. His four-seam fastball this season, according to FanGraphs, had averaged 94.7 mph. Yet there he was with a 97-mph heater to Bryce Harper, the second hitter he faced. (Yes, Harper was booed.) His first-inning fastballs averaged 96.5, more than a little hair on them. And there was more to come: three straight fastballs to absolutely destroy Brad Miller in the fourth - 96, 95 and 98, respectfully. The capper, of course: a 98-mph seed past

Report: KD, Kyrie plot NY union Field Level Media

One side of the bridge or the other, a Kevin Durant-Kyrie Irving pairing in New York is becoming more likely, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported Thursday. While hedging that the Warriors remain an option with the power to give Durant $57 million more on a five-year deal than any other team, Windhorst and Durant confidant Jay Williams, the former Duke star, pointed to Durant and Irving hooking up in Brooklyn to play for the Nets when free agency begins June 30. Durant and Irving have player options that would need to be declined by June

29 to become unrestricted free agents, but that’s considered mere formality at this stage. Durant, 30, is unlikely to play until at least April 2020 and could sit out all of next season recovering from a ruptured right Achilles tendon. Irving, 27, met with Durant in New York last week. Durant remained in the city after surgery to repair the injury he incurred in Game 5 of the NBA Finals in Toronto. As for reports the All-Stars could land in New York, with one on the Knicks and the other with the Nets, Williams said that isn’t going to happen. Durant’s “super max” offer from the Warriors could be used to help facilitate a signand-trade, Windhorst said.

“So, the Durant situation is still in flux,” Windhorst said. “One of the things that is being discussed right now is that the Golden State Warriors would offer Kevin Durant a five-year contract, $57 million extra than he can get signing elsewhere, let him rehab and then work with him to be traded, potentially to New York, potentially to somewhere else. It would be their way to sort of take care of him monetarily after what he just went through and also protect the franchise to some assets. If that happens, the Knicks would be in tremendous position to get back into it because they’re going to have some of these young assets plus cap space.”

Miller for the first out of the seventh, then 97 mph to finish off Andrew Knapp for the second out of that frame, and then an unfair slider down and away to put away pinch hitter J.T. Realmuto. With his 117th pitch done, he slapped his glove and twirled around. When he arrived at the top step of the dugout, hitting coach Kevin Long was the unfortunate soul who met him first. Max nearly took Long’s arm off with a high-five. “He hit my hand pretty hard,” manager Dave Martinez said. “He was fired up. The whole dugout was fired up.” For one of the few times all year. Maybe it took the ace to mess up his face to provide a pivot point for a team’s season. How long till the Nats announce the date on the 2020 calendar for “Black-eye Max” bobblehead night? Scherzer has to be disconcerting to face even as his regular self. His right eye is blue. His left eye is brown. He struts off the mound, kicks at the dirt, blows out his nose like a bull. It’s a show. Every single time, it’s a show. But staring back at that visage Wednesday? His right eye, the blue one, was dark and gloomy underneath. You want to say he looked as if he’d been in a barroom brawl, but

you know his response would be, “But you shoulda seen the other guy.” This makes no sense for anyone else. Given the point in the season, the strain it takes to get through 162 games, wouldn’t wiser heads have said, “Take a day or three?” With rainouts Monday and Tuesday, the Nats had options. Patrick Corbin pitched - and pitched well, the importance of which shouldn’t be overlooked with everything else that happened Wednesday - in the opener. Erick Fedde was an option on regular rest in the nightcap. Scherzer could have pitched, say, Friday in the opener of a key series against division-leading Atlanta. Except here’s the thing: Scherzer knows - as everyone around the Nats knows - that there are no series that aren’t key for this club right now. “I knew I could post tonight,” Scherzer said. So he posted. The doubleheader sweep pulls the Nats to 35-38, the first time they have been within three games of .500 since April 29. For the Nationals to get all the way back into the race and even with the momentum from Wednesday, they still trail the Braves by eight games - they need Scherzer to will and inspire them. Even before the whole seven-scorelesswith-a-busted-face thing, Scherzer was doing that. In his past six starts, he has a 0.88 ERA, has allowed 0.85 walks and hits per inning pitched and has 59 strikeouts in 41 innings. And now, a real moment that could define a comeback. What was this like? This was like, say, Alex Ovechkin in January 2008, when the Montreal Canadiens busted his nose with a check, when he took a puck to the mouth and needed stitches - and scored four goals anyway. Hockey players, though, consider mangled faces a right of passage. Scherzer is the rare baseball player who could wander into a hockey dressing room and fit right in. Now, the big question: Will that attitude, that willingness to not just play but perform, help flip this season? I’m a believer that one game in 162 can mean more than another. That’s what this felt like. “That’s what we’re most focused on - just playing good baseball as a whole,” Scherzer said. “When we can do that, we know we can compete with anybody in this league, and we can beat some teams.” They beat the Phillies on Wednesday night because Max Scherzer pitched when others would have sat. Scherzer doesn’t need another signature moment, and he provided one anyway. If that doesn’t serve as a turning point for this Nats season, nothing will.

With uncertainty looming in the Eastern Conference, the Sixers have many questions to answer David Murphy The Philadelphia Inquirer

PHILADELPHIA — Given that we are barely a week removed from the Raptors’ victory over the Warriors in the NBA Finals, it’s unlikely that anybody needs a reminder of how dramatically the balance of power can shift in an offseason. At this time last year, Toronto was a 40-to-1 longshot to win the 2018-19 title, putting them behind the Sixers, Celtics, Heat and Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks were even further back at 100-to-1 odds, tied with the Pacers, the Wizards and, yes, the Knicks. One year later, the East is set for one of its wildest offseasons in recent years. While the Sixers seem likely to pursue a Plan A that keeps its starting five intact, the rest of the conference could look radically different by the time training camp begins. For the sake of the argument — and because any other scenario would only add to the chaos that could unfold elsewhere — let’s assume that Elton Brand succeeds in his quest to retain Tobias Harris, Jimmy Butler and JJ Redick. Here are four big questions that will significantly impact the Sixers’ prospects in 2019-20: 1. Will Kawhi Leonard leave the Eastern Conference? The answer to this question has a chance to alter the NBA’s competitive balance in a way that few single transactions ever have. Not only would his departure make his new team an instant contender, it would force the Raptors to start contemplating a complete rebuild before they even get fitted for their rings. Kyle Lowry will be 34 in March and coming off a season in which he looking nothing like a legitimate No. 1 scoring option. Marc Gasol will be 35 in January. With $101 million committed to those two plus Serge Ibaka, Fred VanVleet, and Norman Powell, the Raptors would be counting on Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby to take two more big steps forward in order to compete with the likes of the Sixers, Celtics, Bucks and Pacers for one

of the top four seeds in the East. That’s not out of the realm of possibility, but there’s an argument to be made that Toronto’s best course of action would be to attempt to trade Lowry and Gasol for younger building blocks. Along with the wise use of the resulting cap space, the Raptors could then hope to enter 2020-21 with a new young core and a chance to contend. Whatever direction Toronto ended up going, the departure of Kawhi to a team like the Clippers would remove a huge obstacle from the Sixers’ path (it also would be the first time an NBA Finals MVP enters the next season with a different team).

2. Where will Kyrie Irving be playing next season (and might the Nets replace the Celtics as a favorite for one of the East’s top four seeds?). From an organizational standpoint, the Nets might be the conference’s biggest domino. You can already feel the swells in the ocean now that they’ve dealt Allen Crabbe to the Hawks. Not only does the move free up the payroll space to sign two max-level free agents, it also leaves them with a formidable supporting cast to surround the yetto-be-named dynamic duo. With Taurean Prince at the three, Caris LeVert at the two, and Joe Harris and Spencer Dinwiddie coming off the bench, the

addition of Irving would move them a stretch four and a rim protector away from legitimate Finals aspirations. It would also force the Celtics to think seriously about parlaying their war chest of assets into a significant addition on the trade market. The net result could leave the Sixers having to deal with an improved top half of the conference, particularly if Leonard remains with the Raptors. 3. Can Giannis Antetokounmpo’s supporting cast get better, or is destined to get worse? Free-agent-to-be Khris Middleton will be making double what he did last season if ends up signing a max

deal. Brook Lopez might have played his way out of the Bucks’ price range. Nikola Mirotic will be a free agent. Ditto for Malcolm Brogdon. Milwaukee could free up the payroll space to add a quality free agent if it succeeds in its quest to shed the $18.4 million combined they owe Tony Snell and Ersan Ilyasova, but it’s difficult to envision a scenario in which the sum of the Bucks’ parts is greater than it was last season. As long as Giannis is wearing green, they’ll be a threat for a top-four seed, and a significant test for the Sixers. But they could lose a lot of ground after leading the NBA with 60 wins in the regular season. 4. What, if any, impact will the Warriors’ postseason misfortune have on the free-agent market? Apart from Leonard’s potential departure from the Raptors, the best external development for the Sixers this offseason might be whatever the Knicks end up doing. Right up until the moment Kevin Durant ruptured an Achilles in the NBA Finals, they were a team that you had to consider as a possible threat to the Sixers. But with Durant out for the season and Klay Thompson likely sidelined for most if not all of it, the top of the freeagent market could be headed for a significant supply crunch. The Knicks have less than $30 million guaranteed spread out over a collection of easily movable contracts, which means they have the payroll space to add two or even three top free agents. But if they envision a future with KD, their best course of action would seem to be to punt on 2019-20 and add another top draft pick next June to pair with RJ Barrett, this year’s presumptive choice at No. 3 overall. Long story short, the Sixers could be one of the few teams that can count on the advantage of continuity by the time the season starts. Of course, if Harris and/or Butler elects to sign elsewhere this summer, we can all look back at the previous sentence and enjoy a good laugh.

COLUMBIA-GREENE MEDIA

Waiter’s effort at small talk provokes tirade Last week I was out with my family of 13 for dinner. My sister-in-law was sitting relaxed in her chair, stretching her back and extending her stomach. The waiter came over and, trying to make small talk, asked her, “What’s the occasion? Are you pregnant?” My sister-in-law DEAR ABBY isn’t pregnant, but her posture may have suggested it. Well, my brother, her husband, went off on the man, calling him names, swearing, and causing a loud, uncomfortable scene. We all agreed the waiter was stupid to ask the question, but wasn’t my brother wrong here? He embarrassed all of us, and I don’t think there was any malicious intent on the part of the waiter. My brother stands behind his outburst and insists he wasn’t wrong. This has happened before, and I’m sure it will happen in the future. What’s your suggestion for a better way to handle a situation like this, so maybe I can get through to my brother? Lost My Appetite In Georgia

JEANNE PHILLIPS

The waiter should have quit winners after he asked if your party of 13 was celebrating a special occasion. To have asked whether your SIL was pregnant was a blunder, which I am betting was reflected in his tip. While I appreciate your brother’s desire to “protect” his wife, he accomplished nothing positive by creating a scene and embarrassing the family. Because you mentioned that this has happened before and may happen in the future, it’s time for “the family” to suggest he get professional help for his anger issues. If this is how he

behaves in public, I shudder to imagine what he’s like in private. When my son was 9 he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. He is now a college grad. Because I couldn’t fix his diabetes, I have tried to fix everything else in his life, and it hasn’t been pretty. He was home for a visit the day his graduate school application was due. I bulldozed him into taking some punctuation advice on his letter of intent that turned out to be wrong. A few months later a rejection letter arrived, and I’m afraid my grammatical error caused it. I’m afraid his dreams were dashed because he trusted me. He doesn’t think the mistake had anything to do with the rejection, but I suspect he’s trying to protect my feelings because he’s such a nice person. How important is perfect grammar on a grad school letter of intent? If my son has an aboveaverage GPA, research experience, aboveaverage GRE scores, but a grammatical error in his essay, could that one error put him out of contention? Trying To Meddle No More I seriously doubt that a misplaced comma would cause your son to be rejected from graduate school if he had all the other necessary qualifications. Listen to what he’s telling you, stop flogging yourself and, from now on, quit trying to bulldoze him and let him fly on his own. There is nothing to feel guilty about. With practice, you’ll get the hang of it.

The problem with playing pharmacist My wife has been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. Doctors tried an electrical cardioversion, but it came back after a few days. She is taking metoprolol and Eliquis. We have read about the supplements red clover, turmeric, omega-3 and hawthorn. Should she discontinue the pharmaceuticals and take supplements TO YOUR instead? GOOD HEALTH

DR. KEITH ROACH

Please don’t do that, and let me explain why. Atrial fibrillation is an abnormal heart rhythm. The goal of treating it is first to relieve symptoms and second, to reduce the risk of stroke. Blood clots can form inside the heart when the atria are fibrillating (a chaotic, non-coordinated muscle movement). Those clots can break off and go into the blood vessels of the brain, causing cell death and loss of function in that part of the brain. That’s a stroke. Your wife is taking metoprolol to slow the heart rate. Atrial fibrillation causes the ventricles to go too fast, causing a sensation of fast heart rate and palpitations. Metoprolol, a beta blocker, protects the heart from damage from a too-fast heart rate, in addition to relieving symptoms. Apixaban (Eliquis) is a powerful anticoagulant, reducing the risk of clot formation. Red clover is usually used in herbal medicine for its estrogen-like activities. Unfortunately, estrogens INCREASE clot risk, so this herbal medicine absolutely should not be used by someone at risk for clots. Sweet clover hay is the source of

Family Circus

warfarin (Coumadin), another often-used anticoagulant in people with atrial fibrillation: This may be the source of confusion. However, warfarin needs to be dosed precisely, with frequent blood level checks. Turmeric is an antioxidant that does have some mild anticoagulant properties. However, it is not remotely powerful enough to do the job of protecting your wife adequately from stroke. Omega-3 fish oils were once thought to reduce risk of atrial fibrillation; unfortunately, a 2013 study showed no benefit. Hawthorn has two potential benefits: To a slight extent, it acts as a beta blocker (like metoprolol) as well as an anticoagulant. However, no trials have proven its effectiveness. It may interfere with both her medicines. Dr. Roach writes: In a recent column, a reader noted she had a history of irritable bowel syndrome and described intermittent sharp rectal pain. My answer discussed control of her IBS. When I saw the column printed in the newspaper, weeks after I wrote it, I realized instantly that the diagnosis was probably proctalgia fugax, which is a spasm of the muscles of the anus. It is thought to be related to nerve compression. I learned from my predecessor of this column, Dr. Paul Donohue, that sitting on a baseball or tennis ball can sometimes stop the pain instantly, and that creams and sometimes oral or inhaled medications can be effective in harder-to-treat cases.

Horoscope By Stella Wilder Born today, you are the kind to make friends very quickly, but you are not, by any means, one to turn your back on your friends and go your own merry way, or forget them in times of trouble. You are the kind to remain faithful and true no matter what may happen. Those who don’t even know you seek your company simply because of what they’ve heard about you. You are the kind to inspire many tales! You are positive and forward-thinking; you don’t let yourself get lost in the past, and you lean always toward the future. You apply yourself fully to any job you undertake — but you always think very carefully before taking a job of any kind whatsoever. You never want to be surprised by long odds, so you will always consider all possible outcomes before accepting a new assignment. You don’t mind working hard, but you want to succeed! Also born on this date are: Prince William, Duke of Cambridge; Juliette Lewis, actress; Meredith Baxter, actress; Jane Russell, actress; Michael Gross, actor; Tony Scott, filmmaker; Bernie Kopell, actor. To see what is in store for you tomorrow, find your birthday and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide. SATURDAY, JUNE 22 CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You’re likely to be introduced to something that can in time change everything, but for now you may be only minimally impressed. LEO (July 23-Aug 22) — You may be tempted to do something that rubs someone the wrong way — but is this your intention? You may want to think twice. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Breaking the rules is always an option, but you must be sure that you’re

risking only what you can afford to lose if you are caught. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — You will want to listen to those who have not, in the past, agreed with you. They may bring up a few points that can change your point of view. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Your mood has been swinging more dramatically than usual perhaps, but today you’ll have good reason to put a lid on any wild behavior. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — You’ll be tempted by someone who knows just how and when to push your buttons. Later in the day you’ll be able to keep yourself safe.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — You are tempted to make things “official” in some way, but you are wondering how a certain someone is going to react. Is it worth the risk? TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You may feel as though you’ve not been treated fairly of late — but perhaps you’ve been standing in your own way. You can lighten the load. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Someone may have you going around in circles throughout much of the day — until you realize that you’re being used in some way.
