After two or three days, white spots may appear inside the mouth, followed by a rash, usually on the face at the hairline, spreading downward to the neck, trunk, arms, legs and feet, according to the Centers for Disease Control website. Once thought eradicated, measles is on the radar again: More than 700 cases have been reported across the United States this year, according to federal health officials. New York state is regarded an an epicenter of the outbreak. “The outbreaks in New York City and New York state are the largest and longest-lasting since measles elimination in 2000,” Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of immunization for See MEASLES A2

“She will help expand the college’s relationships with rural communities and help get more grants and tap into outside funding, which we are increasingly going to need with state cut backs.” Vice Chair Peter O’Hara agreed that Drummer was an excellent choice. “The search committee is very pleased the Board of Regents has approved her,” he said. “The trustees are looking forward to working with her as we move into a new era at the college. We look forward to the new initiatives and new insights she will be to her presidency.” Greene County Treasurer Peter Markou served on the search committee which was tasked with narrowing a pool of over 40 applicants down to eight for interviews and then down to a final four to send to the SUNY board. Markou said he thinks Drummer will bring a unique perspec-
tive to the college because she did not spend her entire career in academia. Drummer has previously worked at a consulting firm and in the communications and public relations fields. There was a large turnout in the college cafeteria for the livestream of the announcement, Markou said, a sign that the campus is happy with the selection. “I know I am pleased because I thought she was way and above the most qualified candidate that we should be looking for,” Markou said. “I look forward to seeing her leave her stamp on the college.” Drummer will be formally appointed July 8, although she will begin getting a feel for the community July 1. “This will be the capstone of my career and I’m really eager to join you all,” she said.

meeting the community’s workforce needs with its nursing, automotive and technology programs,” Drummer said. “I want to make sure students have the experience they need to transfer to a four-year university or go right into the workforce.” A more long-term goal for Drummer is to get hands-on experience at the college. “I look forward to the opportunity to teach a class at the college,” Drummer said. “It’s important to have a connection with students in the classroom.” Drummer has taught English, multi-cultural studies, women’s studies and integrated marketing communications courses in the past.

hopes she can be an example to the students, she said. “Whatever one’s gender, leading a college is an honor,” Drummer said. “What I would bring to the college as a woman, I hope would influence women students and be a role model for them to show them the sky is the limit.” Columbia-Greene Community College Board of Trustees Chairman Edward Schneier voiced his approval for Drummer. “We are very lucky to have her,” Schneier said. “Throughout the selection process Dr. Drummer stood out. She is as happy to be coming here as we are to have her.” Quinebaug is similar to Columbia-Greene and is located in a rural setting. “She and her husband love this area,” Schneier said. Drummer’s experience in marketing and communications will be an asset to the college, Schneier said.

WASHINGTON — The House on Friday again approved a massive emergency relief bill for farmers and communities hit by hurricanes, wildfires, floods and other natural disasters, escalating a standoff with President Donald Trump, who has resisted more aid to Puerto Rico and demanded additional money for immigration enforcement. Thirty-four House Republicans joined their Democratic colleagues in approving the emergency package, which passed 257-150 and would send
$17.2 billion in relief and recovery assistance across the country and give a quick cash infusion to farmers swamped by floods and caught in the president’s trade war. The package builds on a measure that was initially passed in January, in the midst of a government shutdown, and rejected by the Senate for not accommodating the floods that recently devastated the Midwest. That flood relief was included in the package passed Friday, which should intensify pressure on the Senate to reach an agreement with or without the president.
“Disaster‑struck communities can’t afford the Republicans’ inaction on this,” said Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California, speaking at a news conference Thursday. “Hopefully,” she added, “the combination of our earlier bill and this bill that addresses more recent disasters will be something that they will let us proceed on.” So far Trump has not softened his opposition, primarily focused on the money allocated to Puerto Rico’s recovery from devastating hurricanes in 2017. Just as he claimed that his trade war has helped farmers, despite

More than 500 of the 704 cases reported as of last Friday were in people who had not been vaccinated, the CDC reported. While there have been no deaths, 66 people have been hospitalized, a third of them with pneumonia.

Health has not handled any cases during this recent outbreak, Van Slyke said the hospital has plans in place should an outbreak occur in the Twin Counties. “Our clinical team has been preparing for many weeks now,” Van Slyke said. “This outbreak began many weeks ago and we have been doing preparations on a response and how to handle patients who are suspected of having measles, and how to handle cases where there is a confirmation of a measles diagnosis. There has been significant preparedness planning around measles.” The hospital has been putting in place specific “protocols and best practices” utilizing information from the Centers for Disease Control and the state Department of Health, Van Slyke said. The recent outbreak surprised many health officials, Van Slyke said, because the disease was thought to have been eradicated from the U.S.
“For most of the medical profession, this was somewhat of a surprising development. We had thought we had measles controlled,” Van Slyke said. “This was an illness that was essentially eliminated and we need to take every precaution possible to make sure any particular case does not provide an opportunity to spread it to others.” The most important step individuals can take to protect themselves is to check with their physician to make sure their immunizations, and those of their children, are up to date, Van Slyke said. “This is an outbreak that was very much preventable,”

Though most Republicans are still voting with the president, their frustration is beginning to show. Rep.

Winning the first round gave Conor a competitive edge, Kerry said. “Conor just wanted to get on the show for so long,” Kerry said. “But when you actually get to play, you want to get to the next round.” Conor’s fans will hold another viewing party at Wolff’s Biergarten on Wednesday night. “We couldn’t have wished for a better experience for Conor,” Kerry said.

Charge follows toddler’s fall By Amanda Purcell Columbia-Greene Media

Brittany Skelley, 29, of Philmont, was charged late Tuesday with acting in a manner to injurious to a child under the age of 17, a class A misdemeanor, in connection with the incident, state police said. Skelley was given a court appearance ticket. The 2-year-old child, who was not identified by police, was sitting on a bed that was against the wall when she fell, state police investigator Abdul Weed said Monday. The girl fell onto a grassy area beneath the window shortly before 10 a.m. and did not sustain any lifethreatening injuries, Weed said. The girl suffered a broken ankle and was taken to Albany Medical Center for treatment, Weed said. A medical evacuation helicopter was summoned to

OUR VIEW
This law will make children safer School is in its final six weeks, but it isn’t too late to talk about safety, especially for students and school buses they ride each day. Momentum to do something is growing in the state Legislature as the Senate adopted two bills that will increase penalties for motorists passing stopped school buses and other measures to increase school bus safety. The timing could not have been better. The state Senate passed the bill just days before a frightening video was released by the Norwich City School District, in Chenango County, that shows driver Samantha
Call yanking a teenage student back into the bus just as a car whizzes past only a foot away from the open door. If the full Legislature passes the bill and Gov. Andrew Cuomo signs it into law, it will increase the maximum fine for passing a stopped school bus on a first conviction from $400 to $500. Two convictions would top out at $750, and three or more convictions would have a maximum penalty of $1,000. When children get on a school bus, parents want to be comfortable knowing they will get to and from school safely, but each day,
reckless drivers ignore the law and put children at risk. The bill, which should be enacted into law as quickly as possible, will hold careless drivers accountable and strengthen important efforts to educate more drivers about school bus safety. Yes, there have been few locally reported incidents of drivers hitting children getting off school buses, but that doesn’t account for the close calls we don’t hear about or are not reported. This bill is important. If one child dies at the hands of a reckless driver flouting the law, it will be one death too many.

it’s easy to give into despair or default to anxious selfprotection, assuming the worst of others and giving no quarter to hope or heroism. This seems to have been the overall public-policy response, as produced by our political leadership and the constituencies they answer to, to our age of mass killings. It would make sense to see it manifest in ordinary people as well, especially those whose lives are directly implicated in this slow-unfolding crisis. But against despair and against nihilism, Howell and Castillo laid down their lives - so that others might live. Theirs was a sacrifice to be not only appreciated but also witnessed, as the term “martyr” implies; it is important to see what the price of loving human life is in our day and age, and this is it. It’s worth asking what sort of era forces its young people to choose death in order to love life, absent a war or some other cataclysm. But perhaps the war is already here, and the cataclysm has simply spread so slowly that some of us have failed to see it for what it is. But Howell and Castillo did, and theirs is a martyrdom that condemns our age.

President Donald Trump has taken comfort in and Democrats have been tempered by polls showing that impeachment is unpopular with the American people. It’s easy to believe that what is true now will continue, but what if events play a significant role in how Americans perceive impeachment? Might they become convinced that Trump is a menace and that Vice President Pence would be a far superior incumbent who would not, as his boss does, risk dragging them all down to defeat? A new poll suggests opinion on impeachment may be malleable. Reuters reports, “The number of Americans who said President Donald Trump should be impeached rose 5 percentage points to 45 percent since mid-April.” In the weeks since the redacted report came out, several developments may have affected voters’ thinking. At least voters outside the Fox News bubble know that, far from exonerating Trump, special counsel Robert Mueller found substantial evidence of obstruction of justice. Hundreds upon hundreds of prosecutors have weighed in, affirming they would have brought charges if not for the Office of Legal Counsel memo. And Attorney General William Barr has performed dreadfully at a pair of hearings, evading and double-talking his way around the actual findings in the report. Now imagine if Mueller and then former White House counsel Donald McGahn testify, reaffirming the mountain of evidence that Trump tried to influence witnesses, sought to fire Mueller and tried to curtail the investigation. Surely that would be gripping TV.
To the editor: As individual residents and taxpayers, every member of the Town Board opposes new business uses that could increase pollution in the town of Catskill. As Town Board members, however, we welcome discussions with any business that proposes to create jobs and reduce our high residential taxes. Our “welcome,” therefore, always includes a statement that any proposal to be considered by the town must first meet all applicable regulations, including environmental, for the use of that site. Three years ago, Wheelabrator approached the Town about potential use of a quarry along Route 9W owned by Peckham Industries. Our response was that we would await notification from the DEC that they had studied the proposal and
NEWS EXECUTIVES Mary Dempsey Executive Editor -ext. 2533 Sue Chasney Editorial Representative ext. 2490
concluded that it meets all environmental regulations, including those governing the Hudson River estuary. That’s where we stand today. The DEC review is still underway. No proposal has been approved and none submitted to the town. So why don’t we show some leadership and pass a Town Law NOW that’s creatively tailored to ban that specific use? Because everyone has a right to fair process. If we bring action tailored to deprive a landowner of rights, they can (and do) bring legal actions backed by deep pockets against the town government, which can cost taxpayers millions. We choose to minimize that risk by following our established process and allowing the DEC to conclude its mandatory examination before we take our next step.
Perhaps even more important, we’re being asked to create a special law targeted to deal with this issue, which we all agree is an important one. But in doing so, we create a dangerous precedent: what about the next group that wants a Town Law passed for their issue? What if it’s specifically tailored to achieve something we don’t all agree on? While we appreciate the quality of the information and the intensity that has been brought to the discussion, we maintain our position as a board that there is no proposal to consider until the DEC completes its review.

counsel report Congress is following precisely the same process as it did in Watergate. Just as in Watergate, when Sen. Sam Ervin led the Watergate committee from May 17, 1973, until its report was issued on June 27, 1974, hearings in the House Judiciary and other House committees can gather facts to determine if the House should proceed to consider impeachment. (The House Judiciary Committee under Rep. Peter Rodino commenced on May 9, 1974, and voted to pass three of five articles of impeachment in late July 1974.) Pelosi’s determination to take this step by step preserves the House’s option to later institute impeachment hearings, gives the American people a tutorial in Trump’s misconduct and, as it turns out, is pushing Trump to undertake even more outlandish (and more impeachable) actions. Pelosi told reporters: “I think that what we want to do is get the facts. We want to do it in a way that is the least divisive to our country and the most productive. We’re asking in the constitutional way for the administration to comply.” She added, “We still have more opportunities. We’ll see if Mueller will testify, and that will make a big difference in terms of where we go from here.” After all of that, we’ll see where public opinion settles. For now, Trump continues to be his own worst enemy.

Moreover, as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, DCalif., has said, Trump’s continued conduct blocking Barr and McGahn from testifying adds to the impression that he is obstructing investigation of his wrongdoing and hiding incriminating information. Indeed at his news conference following the contempt vote, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., suggested the White House is not stonewalling merely on the Russia probe: “This year, we have gotten not one page of information … in response … to any subpoena, nor have any other committees in the House. There have been absolutely not one single page.” If Trump has indeed ordered agencies to do what he has said publicly - oppose all subpoenas - he is engaged in an unprecedented, acrossthe-board assault on the Constitution. If he intends to raise bad faith claims of executive privilege to avoid responding to any subpoenas - even on topics unrelated to Russia - he has gone one step further than Richard M. Nixon. (Pelosi reiterated this at her Thursday news conference: “And now we’re not even talking about isolated situations.

Va. attorney general works to combat racial inequality in wake of blackface admission Antonio Olivo The Washington Post
Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring, trying to move past his admission that he wore blackface at a party when he was 19, told a gathering of African American leaders that Virginia needs to reckon with its painful history around race. At Mt. Zion United Methodist Church in Leesburg, Virginia, on Thursday night, Herring shared strategies to attract more judges of color, to eliminate Confederate symbols from public spaces and to reduce hate crimes. “Virginia has to deal more honestly with its past,” the Democrat told a crowd of about 50, which was billed as an interfaith gathering and also included Jewish and Muslim leaders. He recited the state’s role in slavery, the Civil War and Jim Crow laws that enforced racial segregation. “We also have to seek out and take advantage of opportunities to tell the history of African Americans in our Commonwealth; the many things that African Americans have voluntarily and involuntarily accomplished, built and contributed,” Herring said. The discussion was part of an effort by Herring to restore credibility with African Americans in the wake of his blackface admission, which came in February, days after a racist photo on the medical school yearbook page of Gov. Ralph Northam , D, was made public. Northam initially apologized for the photo but then said it wasn’t him, although he admitted that he wore blackface to imitate Michael Jackson for a 1984 dance contest. Those developments, combined with sexual assault allegations against Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, D, have rocked state politics in a pivotal election year. Public opinion polls show that all three executive branch leaders have lost ground with voters, although Herring has appeared to sustain the least damage. Still, the events have drained their ability to help their party when all 140 General Assembly seats are on the November ballot and Republicans hold razor thin two-seat majorities in both the House of Delegates and the Senate. The scandals have also weakened the chances for either Herring or Fairfax to become the state’s next governor, though neither has not ruled out a 2021 bid. After initially staying out of the public eye, Northam and Herring have taken measured steps to win back black voters and elected officials.

Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring speaks at the second of the three-part #HealingVirginia series of meetings at Mt. Zion United Methodist Church.
Northam pledged to make racial equity the focus of his remaining 2 1/2 years in office, announcing that he will hire a director of “diversity, equity and inclusion” who will report directly to him and his chief of staff. He pushed for additional money in the state budget to address several priorities of the Virginia Legislative Black Caucus, including aid for atrisk public school students and affordable housing support. The governor also supported the creation of an advisory board on African American issues, and vetoed legislation to set mandatory minimum sentences for certain crimes, which have disproportionately impacted minorities. Herring has focused most of his efforts on concerns of African American in Loudoun County, Virginia, an area of Confederate monuments and Civil War battlefields that he represented for seven years as a state senator. After Herring revealed that he dressed up as rapper Kurtis Blow at a 1980 party while a student at the University of Virginia, he called Michelle Thomas, the president of the NAACP’s Loudoun, Virginia, chapter. The two agreed to hold a “healing” series of talks with local black leaders and
others , where they’d get an opportunity to vent their anger and then figure out ways to address inequities African Americans experience in law enforcement, education and elsewhere, Thomas said. The first discussion took place in early March and another will occur in June, she said. “We’re hoping we can chart a path forward, past the blackface,” Thomas said. At Thursday’s meeting, Herring - who lives in Leesburg - appeared at ease, greeting some with hugs. Several audience members said they had forgiven the attorney general. “He volunteered that information, “ said Rochelle Sumner, referring to Herring’s public statement about his time in blackface. “Nobody pulled it out, discovered it during an investigation or anything. But, when we talk about Gov. Northam? I have a different view.” The discussion focused local concerns that the group had agreed to attack during its March meeting, with Herring vowing to help. Among them: renaming Harry Byrd Highway (named after the former governor who supported racial segregation), changing school textbooks to better reflect the experience of African Americans, and
Two French soldiers killed in raid that frees four hostages in Burkina Faso Elian Peltier The New York Times News Service
PARIS — A raid led by French armed forces rescued four hostages in northern Burkina Faso on Friday as a group of hostage-takers was attempting to take them to Mali, French authorities said. Two French soldiers died in the overnight raid. The hostages included two Frenchmen, an American and a South Korean. It was not clear who had abducted them or was holding them, but a number of armed insurgent and terrorist groups, including the Islamic State group and al-Qaida, operate in the region. At a news conference Friday, France’s armed forces chief, Gen. François Lecointre, said the hostages were on their way to be transferred to the Macina Liberation Front, an Islamist militant group in Mali, and that it would have
been “absolutely impossible” to set up a raid once the hostages were in the group’s hands. Patrick Picque and Laurent Lassimouillas, the two French citizens, were abducted May 1 while on vacation in Benin’s Pendjari National Park, on the border with Burkina Faso, where terror groups have stepped up attacks in recent months. Their car was found burned and their driver dead. The identities of the American and South Korean citizens, both women who had been held hostage for 28 days, were not immediately made public by French authorities. Florence Parly, the armed forces minister, said that until the French forces staged the rescue, “we were not aware of their presence,” nor were the governments of South Korea or the United States. Lecointre said “the raid was looking for two hostages,” not
four. For days, French and U.S. military intelligence services tracked the group that had taken the French hostages as they moved toward northern Burkina Faso. When they paused and set up a temporary camp Thursday, Lecointre said, he was told it would be the last chance to attempt a rescue. After receiving a green light from President Emmanuel Macron, he ordered the raid. French officials did not say how many soldiers participated. Two French soldiers were killed at short distance. They were identified as Cédric de Pierrepont and Alain Bertoncello and had joined the Navy in 2004 and 2011. “France has lost two of its sons; we lose two of our brothers,” Lecointre said. Four militants died in the raid, and two escaped.
adding judges of color to local courts. “It’s important to have a criminal justice system that reflects the Commonwealth and its diversity and Virginia, unfortunately, is falling short,” Herring said, noting that just 50 of the state’s 410 judges are African American. “Here in Loudoun, there are zero,” he said, promising to talk to law schools about steering more students of color into career paths that lead to the bench. With Herring presiding, the group recruited volunteers who could lobby elected officials and further map plans of action. They also vowed to help Democrats win in November, arguing that many of their desired reforms have been blocked by Republicans, including legislation Herring has pushed that would impose tougher penalties for hate crimes. “People have to get angry,” said Phillip Thomas, an executive committee member of the state NAACP. “When you get angry, you take action. You’ve got to get involved.” In a brief interview after the event, Herring balked at the idea that his motivations are connected to renewed plans to run for governor. He said he hadn’t decided whether to resume his bid, which he announced in December, before the blackface admission. “I’m staying focused on being the best attorney general I can be,” Herring said. If Herring wants to restore his image with black voters, he needs to be an active voice for racial and ethnic equity, said Jennifer Naqvi, 41. “He has to be an example,” she said. “He has to show up to all of these meetings. He has to be visible.” The Washington Post’s Gregory S. Schneider contributed to this report.

There is only one place to buy a purebred dog By Charlene Marchand For Columbia-Greene Media
One of the benefits of the increase in televised broadcasts of some dog shows of note, i.e. Westminster, the AKC Invitational Royal Canine Classic, and the Beverly Hills Kennel Club, etc., is the opportunity for the viewer to access reliable doggie information. When breed histories and statements about baseline temperament traits, activity levels and more are shared, it can put the purebred buying public, as well as a rescuer or mixed breed adopter, on the right path to find a suitable companion. Lifestyle compatibility is key to permanent placements. For those seeking purebreds, the American Kennel Club website affords one easy access to the location of specific breed clubs in any part of the country. This then translates to reputable breeder referrals in or near your area. Most breed clubs will suggest that a caller make a couple of telephone inquiries, followed by some visits to the respective kennels. If one is unfamiliar with a breed, the multiple visits will allow them more exposure to the knowledge of the breeders, and the differences in their dogs and management. The key here, is to get the potential buyer to the proper source. There is only ONE place to buy a purebred dog, if that is your decision. I define this “proper source” to include private breeders with extensive knowledge of breed history, bloodlines, training, and exhibition. The bloodstock of this individual or individuals is valuable, most being able to introduce you to their AKC CHAMPIONS, or dual-titled dogs. Many of these select are awarded the prestigious Breeder of Merit designation. Puppies live with and are accompanied by their dams. Sires may be absent, as most valuable dams are bred to exceptional and compatible sires, often a coast away. All background health checks, DNA testing, and certificates, reflecting specific breed-inheritance problems, are discussed with the families-to-be upfront.

Guarantees are made available, with detailed explanations as to what the purchaser can expect if their new pup encounters a health problem. The reputable, conscientious, private breeder, determined to make the best placement possible, will thoroughly question the lifestyle, dog knowledge, daily management, and prior veterinary records of this prospective new family. I chuckle when many of my “extended” families have used the words “grill” and “interrogate” to describe my initial interviews. My motto has always been that if a breeder isn’t asking you as many or more questions than you are asking him/her, then run — don’t walk — somewhere else. I would want the puppy from the home of a breeder that I had to do cartwheels for! Though this sentiment is somewhat toned down at our Columbia-Greene Shelter, the reflection of this evaluation process is quite the same. All good animal shelters and rescue organizations alike strive to make sure that the next car ride home that
one of their canine charges makes will be the last one. Adoptive families should not be offended by the “grill” — they should be thankful for the time taken to ensure a proper “match” — they should demand it! To be continued.

The woods awaken I have been back home in New York for just about two weeks now and it has rained almost every single day. I believe this string of rainy days is the fourth longest on record in the Capital District as I write this on May 7. This has certainly put a damper on getting my outdoor gardening chores accomplished, but it has not prevented me from spending lots of time in the woods turkey hunting! It is pure joy for me to watch the plants and animals of the forest awaken from winter dormancy. There is really nothing I enjoy more than communing with nature every year at this time. It is well worth the effort to get out of bed at 4:30 a.m. in order to be in the forest before the sun comes up. The pace at which the leaves on trees and shrubs expand and the growth rate of the perennial plants that are emerging is remarkable. It seems that the tree leaves double in size in only three or four days, and the ephemeral herbs arise from the forest floor at least as quickly. Five days ago ginseng plants had not yet emerged at all in a place where I have monitored a wild population for almost 30 years, but now they are three inches tall and within a few weeks they will be 12 inches tall. Most of the woodland ferns are in the fiddlehead stage now, but maidenhair fern, my favorite, is still not even beginning to open. It is interesting to note how the color of these plants changes from emergence to full development. Common plants such as poison ivy and Virginia creeper, as well as many tree species, begin growth with red-col-

Chloroplasts are the remarkable organs contained in plant cells where photosynthesis takes place. Like mitochondria, another cellular organ, they contain their own DNA and are capable of self-replication. The lime-green color we see now will darken and deepen as the season progresses and the chloroplasts multiply. Woodland wildflowers abound with colorful blossoms ranging from white to red, green, pink, maroon, blue, violet, purple, yellow, orange and even brown. I feel sorry for some men, like my friend Lester, who are somewhat color blind and cannot see the subtle shades of these blossoms. Women do not suffer from this malady, since the genes that cause color blindness occur on the Y chromosome, which women lack. Woodland animals are also becoming active again, from salamanders to black bears. The air is filled with the sounds of so many bird species that have either returned from warmer climates or have survived yet another winter in the Northeast. Food is also abundant as plants produce highly nutritious flowers

and seeds. I watched a rosebreasted grosbeak and a red squirrel both gorge themselves on the green flowers of a sugar maple tree at Lester’s house, while ignoring a platform bird feeder nearby. Black bears are already becoming a nuisance to people who have not yet removed their winter bird feeders. It is imperative these feeders be removed now or at least brought indoors at night to prevent bears from becoming accustomed to a free handout. Bad bear behavior is usually the result of innocent bird feeding and sometimes the bears must be killed by the DEC if they persist in raiding human sources of food. I spotted an adult woodchuck in my garden today. It quickly took refuge under one of my sheds before I had a chance to shoot it. I really don’t like killing woodchucks, or any other wildlife I don’t eat, but in New York it is illegal to live trap an animal such as a woodchuck and relocate it elsewhere. People who live in more urban areas often must hire someone to get rid of offending critters like woodchucks if they take up residence in an unacceptable location. Once a woodchuck has an established burrow, the burrow must be completely destroyed or it will quickly be reoccupied by another woodchuck. Despite the wet weather, I want to remind everyone that no outdoor burning of anything is permitted until mid – May. Leaves and other garden debris can be raked up and composted, but not burned.

New sets school record in long jump as TH rolls

CRARYVILLE — Trevor New broke a 33-year old school record in the long jump to highlight Taconic Hills’ victories over Rensselaer and Windham in Thursday’s Patroon Conference boys track and field meet. New jumped 21-6 in setting a new school mark. He also won the 100-meter hurdles in :16.6 and the high jump with a 5-8 effort. The Titans finish 9-1 in the Patroon. The Taconic Hills girls were also victorious, defeating Rensselaer-Doane Stuart, 92-49. Lily Russo posted three first place finishes, winning the pole vault (8-0), long jump (15-2) and triple jump (31-9). Amelia Canetto won the 100-meters (:13.8), the 200-meters (:26.) and was a member of the winning 4x400-meter relay team. Andrea Snyder won the 800-meters (2:47.5) and helped the 4x400 and 4x800 relay teams to first place finishes. Results:

ASMFC takes first step to change Striper regs By Larry DiDonato For Columbia-Greene Media
The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Council’s (ASMFC) Striped Bass Management Board met on April 30 and took the first step in mandating coastwide changes in striped bass fishing regulations. Their 2018 Atlantic Striped Bass Benchmark Stock Assessment found that striped bass have been overfished along the east coast. It determined that while recruitment of new fish stock is fluctuating, fish mortality is above the established threshold, and the spawning stock biomass is below the minimum level. These two negative markers combined to evoke a statistical trigger to take action to prevent continued reduction in the stock of striped bass along the eastern seaboard. The main motion passed at the meeting tasked the board’s Planning Development Team (PDT) to develop
options that would reduce fishing mortality by 17 percent. They listed the options as follows: *Minimum fish size for the coast and the Chesapeake Bay *Slot Limit that would prohibit harvest of fish over 40 inches *Mandatory use of circle hooks when fishing with bait coastwide to reduce discard mortality *A provision that states could use seasonal closures in conservation equivalency proposals *Apply need reductions equally to both commercial and recreational sectors *Apply needed reductions proportionally based on total removals in 2017 to both commercial and recreational anglers What we can expect is a potential combination of possible actions including a coastwide minimum size limit, a slot limit eliminating See STRIPER B6

Rays present biggest test yet to depleted Yankees Bob Klapisch The New York Times News Service
Every so often in a 162-game schedule, a series takes on outsize importance, even if the players involved are reluctant to admit it. One game at a time, they’ll say, bypassing the buildup of two powerhouses meeting head on. On cue, the New York Yankees have insisted that there is nothing special about their series this weekend at the American League Eastleading Tampa Bay Rays, despite all the signs that point to something much larger. The Rays, after all, have replaced the Boston Red Sox as the Yankees’ No. 1 threat in the division: Despite their $64 million payroll, the Rays entered Thursday with the American League’s best run differential and, on the strength of their major league-best 2.87 ERA, had allowed the fewest runs. Tampa Bay is tied with Baltimore for the league’s youngest pitching staff, but unlike the Orioles, the Rays are hardly rebuilding. To the contrary, after a 90-win season in 2018, Tampa Bay has proved it belongs in the same conversation with the Yankees and Red Sox. As Yankees slugger Aaron Judge said Thursday, “You could tell they believed in themselves and how much confidence they had. So, I’m not surprised at how well they’re

playing now.” The question is: Can the injury-depleted
Yankees match up with their Plan B lineup? They’ve passed every recent test, having won
14 of their past 19 games, including Thursday night’s 3-1 victory over the visiting Seattle Mariners. The little-known Gio Urshela came through again, delivering a two-run single in the eighth inning to assure the win. They chose to pitch to him with the bases loaded after intentionally walking Gleyber Torres — a move that Urshela said “gave me extra confidence” to lash a line drive through the right side of the infield. The recent stretch of wins might not be stunning, considering the Yankees’ colossal $211.5 million payroll. But they currently have 12 players on the injured list, including front-liners Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Hicks and Didi Gregorius. Nevertheless, the Yankees have lost only one series since April 15 — going 0 for 2 against the Arizona Diamondbacks — and have otherwise stood up to the Central Divisionleading Minnesota Twins and the Mariners, the league’s premier run-scorers. They’ve done so with relative strangers, like Urshela and Mike Tauchman, and recycled journeymen, like Cameron Maybin. Established starters Luis Severino and James Paxton have been lost to the IL and replaced by Domingo German and Jonathan Loaisiga. If Major League Baseball had a taxi squad, this would See YANKEES B6

Weekend preview: Harvick at right spot for first win? Field Level Media
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – With a career-best eight Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series victories in 2018 and a near-miss at his second Cup title, Kevin Harvick came into the 2019 season feeling understandably confident in himself and his Stewart-Haas Racing team. But 11 races into the season, Harvick and his No. 4 team are still surprisingly looking for a first trip to victory lane. And while that’s not to say they haven’t been close, the defending champion of the Digital Ally 400 at Kansas Speedway (Saturday night, 7:30 p.m. ET on FS1, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) would like nothing better than to right the ship. Last year, Harvick won this race from the pole position – a place he’s started more than anyone else in history at Kansas (four) and from where a track-high six winners of the race have come. He also holds the track qualifying record at 197.773 mph (October, 2014). Harvick has finished eighth or better in eight of the last 11 Kansas races – including three wins and three runner-up finishes. During that stretch he’s led 668 laps total – most in the field. In 10 of those 11 races, he led doubledigit laps. This season, however, Harvick (and essentially the rest of the field) are playing catch-up to Joe Gibbs Racing and Team Penske, whose teams have combined to earn 10 of the first 11 trophies. The other typically “hot” driver at Kansas, two-time race winner Martin Truex Jr., has won two of the last three Monster Energy Series races this season in his new No. 19 JGR Toyota, including last week at Dover, Del. He swept the two Kansas races in 2017 en route to winning the series championship. Last year, Harvick had already won four times before the series arrived at the Kansas 1.5-miler, where he won again. In fact, his SHR team had five wins total through the opening 11 races in 2018 with Kansas’ own Clint Bowyer winning an early season trophy in Martinsville, Va. That the Penske Fords have won this year – twice with Brad Keselowski and once with Joey Logano – assuages the situation some for the SHR Ford team. But patience is not a practical virtue as the regular season approaches the halfway point. SHR has 25 top-10 and 10 top-five finishes among its four drivers but that conspicuous “0” where it would prefer a higher number. Harvick is third in the points standings despite being the only driver among the top seven without a victory yet. He trails three-time race winner Kyle Busch by 63 points and is 58 points behind second-place Logano. “Our cars ran fine at Texas,” Harvick said of the similar 1.5-mile venue the series has already competed on this season. “Obviously, we had

some isolated problems. Our cars from the Stewart-Haas standpoint haven’t won a race, but they ran fine at Texas. “We’ve been in contention. We were plenty good at Bristol (Tenn.) and Richmond, so it’s really just a detail thing at this point to get one of them to victory lane.” CLOSE BATTLE ATOP THE NASCAR GANDER OUTDOORS TRUCK SERIES STANDINGS The NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series championship became even tighter following Johnny Sauter’s record third consecutive win at Dover International Speedway last weekend. He now trails ThorSport Racing teammate Grant Enfinger and current points leader by only four points in the standings. Enfinger re-took the lead with a fourth-place finish at Dover as previous leader Stewart Friesen finished 12th. Although Friesen was disappointed to fall 11 points back in the title chase, that was the first time he was running at the finish in three career Dover races, so he still comes away feeling encouraged. Only 23 points separate Enfinger and fifth place Ben Rhodes. Defending series champion Brett Moffitt is 14 points behind Enfinger in fourth place. Sauter (Dover) and rookie Austin Hill (Daytona) are the only truck regulars to score a victory so far in 2019, but that should change again this week with primarily championship contenders competing at the Kansas 1.5-miler. Matt Crafton is the only multi-time winner (2013 and ‘15) in the field this week. The two-time Gander Trucks champion is keeping the title contenders honest. He’s ranked sitting in the standings – 37 points behind
Enfinger – and has top-10 finishes in five of the last six Kansas races, including three top-five showings. Additionally, he finished either first or second at Kansas for four consecutive years between 2013 and ‘16.

Sauter has an average finish of 8.8 in 10 starts. They are the only drivers in the field with average finishes in the top 10.
Matz placed on injured list, Smith recalled, Mets announce Tim Healey Newsday
Dominic Smith is back, at least for now. The Mets decided Thursday to put left-hander Steven Matz on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Sunday, with radial nerve discomfort in his left forearm. They called up Smith to take that roster spot, six days after sending the first baseman/ pinch hitter to Triple-A Syracuse when they opted to carry infielder Adeiny Hechavarria instead. Manager Mickey Callaway has said that Matz’s nerve issue is not considered a significant one, though the possibility of him being officially sidelined lingered all week. Matz received a cortisone shot Monday, which prevented him from throwing for a
couple of days. If he progresses as the Mets expect, he can return Wednesday to start against the Nationals, just one day later than the team had hoped. The back of the Mets’ rotation is in a state of disarray, but off days Thursday and Monday help. Jason Vargas (left hamstring issue) is also on the IL. In Matz’s place, Wilmer Font — acquired Monday in a trade with the Rays — pitched Wednesday against the Padres, allowing two runs in four innings. “I liked his stuff. Downhill fastball, good split. Flashed a plus slider a couple times,” Callaway said. “He threw strikes. Got ahead. He did a heck of a job. That was a great first impression. It looks like we got ourselves a pretty good pitcher there.”
Against the Marlins this weekend, the Mets have Zack Wheeler, Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard lined up. That leaves Font — or, less likely, a call-up or a bullpen game — with the series opener Tuesday in Washington, D.C. Whenever Matz or Vargas is ready, the Mets don’t need a fifth starter again until May 18. Matz has a case as the Mets’ most consistent starter so far this season, posting a 3.86 ERA and 1.20 WHIP in seven games. Only deGrom (3.60 ERA) has been better at preventing runs. Matz’s tough injury luck turned into good news for Smith. Unhappy with being demoted despite a .333/.459/.400 slash line, Smith used all of his threeday grace period before
joining Syracuse. He went 2-for-9 in two games. The Mets, who are collectively struggling at the plate, missed him Wednesday in San Diego in particular, when they had multiple spots where a lefthanded hitter off the bench could have come in handy. The Mets’ seemingly constant roster shuffling isn’t over. With infielder Jed Lowrie (sprained left knee
capsule) expected to be activated Friday, the Mets will have to get rid of another position player. The primary options: third baseman J.D. Davis, who would be able to get more outfield reps in the minors; outfielder Keon Broxton, who has a .152 average and .394 OPS; and Hechavarria, whose backup shortstop status matters less with Lowrie’s arrival.

125-89 loss in Game 5. Prior to Game 6, his coach said he thought that game would bring a more-assertive Simmons, and that’s exactly what it did. He charged out of the gate, and he did not stop, whether it was pushing the pace after a long missed-3 by Kyle Lowry and dishing to Jimmy Butler at the opposite end of the court, or rising above the rim to jam home a miss by Joel Embiid and punctuating it with a roar. From Butler, the one Sixer who has worn his big-boy pants throughout the series, there came a reminder that the Sixers will have no choice but to consider maxing him out once he reaches free agency this offseason. The veteran guard was the Sixers’ counter-puncher in the win, summoning his inner closer to score seven points in the final 78 seconds of the first half. After Toronto went on a 12-0 run to cut a 19-point Raptors’ deficit down to seven in the second quarter, Butler got himself into the paint and hit a pull-up jumper that
stopped the bleeding. A couple of possessions later, he broke down Danny Green with a cross-over and lobbed to Simmons for an emphatic alley-oop dunk that seemed to right the wobble in the Sixers’ gait. And from Brett Brown, a man who arrived at the arena with head coaching’s grim reaper riding in his back seat, there came a reminder that the Sixers will need to think long and hard about whether the labor market is likely to yield a coach who is better than the one they have. This was a must-win in the most literal sense, and the Sixers came out looking as though they knew they would win it. We’d hold it against Brown if the opposite occurred, so it seems dishonest to not at least consider what it might say, given the level of dominance the Sixers displayed. As for Game 7 ... . Nobody should ignore the fact that Game 6 was first and foremost a reminder that Kawhi Leonard is, in fact,
a human being. In the midst of one of the great postseasons of all time, Leonard shot 9 of 20 from the field and 0 for 4 from 3-point range. It was an almost stunning sight to see given the automation that he has displayed throughout most of the series. As was this little fact: in his last two games, Leonard is 0 for 8 from 3-point range and 16 of 36 from the field, after the first four games, in which he shot 55 of 89 from the floor and 13 of 28 from 3-point range, while averaging 38 points in 40 minutes a night. Counting on Leonard to play like a mortal for a third straight game is a dicey proposition for a Sixers team that has spent much of this season trying to find itself defensively. Still, there were precious few who thought they’d even get that chance. Whatever the expectations that ownership has set forth, it says something that the Sixers will enter the last game of this series with a pulse.

Tyreek Hill’s Georgia hometown grapples with hope, doubt about the Chiefs receiver Vahe Gregorian The Kansas City Star
EARSON, Ga. — From the north and south on Highway 441 and via the west and east on Highway 82, this rural Georgia village is framed by signs paying homage to its most prominent native son: CITY OF PEARSON ... HOME OF TYREEK HILL ... 10 NFL KANSAS CITY CHIEFS. The wide receiver grew up here, about 220 miles southeast of Atlanta, 3.4 square miles where 37.5 percent of approximately 2,000 residents live below the poverty line. Born 25 years ago to teen parents, Hill might easily have become what he referred to in an interview with The Star last year as “another lost piece.” But Hill was lifted by grandparents he speaks of with reverence and nurtured in a church on the edge of town — the same church he returned to with an apology to its congregants after a 2014 incident in which he pleaded guilty of domestic abuse. “He came back before the church and just said he was sorry,” said Jerry Braswell Jr., the pastor of Pine Chapel Missionary Baptist Church. “He just felt like he let a lot of folks down.” That’s no doubt part of what has made this time so distressing and puzzling for people in a community where Hill has stirred imaginations and symbolized hope, and where he was bestowed the “key to the city” just a few weeks ago. In Pearson, you won’t see any obvious hints of the recent trouble swirling around Hill that threatens his NFL career. If you come seeking to understand more about his background and who he is, and how people here are processing all that is unfolding this spring, though, you’ll see something more. Recent events have rendered Hill’s name a hot button even in his hometown, where some who know him well didn’t respond to messages and others declined comment, citing the combustible nature of the situation. Numerous efforts to speak with his grandparents were unsuccessful. Inside the P&W Family Restaurant on the day of its grand opening, a poster featuring Hill dominates one window. A girl wears a shirt promoting Hill’s charitable foundation; another young woman is clad in one touting his celebrity basketball game. But when a waitress is asked after a meal about what Hill means to Pearson, she promptly walks away to speak with another woman who evidently is in charge ... and is visibly upset that a reporter is asking such questions. She yells across the room that they don’t know Hill, and adds that she knows nothing about Hill’s foundation. No one returns to the table afterward. It’s one moment, one anecdote. But it’s telling about an apprehension of being misconstrued or misrepresented, or saying something that might be recorded and then regretted. “I think people are really frightened of reporters and frightened of things like that,” said Braswell, who noted Hill was a regular part of his flock from age 8 to 18. “Even me, I had to pray about this situation myself before I called you back.” The restraint in Pearson obscures a truth: After Hill’s three exhilarating years on the field and apparent redemptive arc off the field since pleading guilty to abuse of thenpregnant girlfriend (and current fiancee) Crystal Espinal in 2014, his story has become a contentious and confounding affair. It’s a rise and fall after a rise and fall. For Hill and his hometown, the next stage of his life is a guess inside a riddle shrouded in a mystery. With investigations of the couple for abuse and neglect of their 3-year-old son unresolved but resulting in his removal from

their custody, the sadness of it all is compounded by Espinal being pregnant again, this time with twins. The muddled mess remains in limbo, with Hill effectively indefinitely suspended by the Chiefs, the NFL yet to make a meaningful statement, let alone take action, and the Johnson County district attorney’s office reopening its criminal investigation in the wake of the recordings of Hill by Espinal — audio obtained and played in excerpts over two days by a Kansas City television station. Emotions run rampant despite so much remaining in the shadows beyond the obvious issues between Espinal and Hill. His past with her and those awful, secretly taped words — “you’d better be terrified of me, too, dumb b----” — loom large, even as other sentiments he expressed, including that he would never harm their child, have received less attention. All of which has made for a living, breathing Rorschach test of perceptions and an ever-bubbling battle to control the narrative, including a reference that links present circumstances back to Hill’s upbringing. Consider the leak last week of a letter sent to the NFL by Trey Pettlon, Hill’s attorney, in which Pettlon attempted to absolve Hill of any fault while deftly mentioning that both parents — Hill and Espinal — grew up in households where “corporal punishment was an accepted discipline, and that they both admit that they have used ‘spanking’ as a form of discipline with their child.” That mention alludes to what might reasonably have been wondered: If Hill hurt or hurts his child, has it been incidental as he tried to instill a form of discipline and respect that was part of his upbringing? No one has specified if that was the case at his home, where corporal punishment still is lawful in all states. Per the National Institutes of Health, Georgia is one of just 19 states (most of which are in the southeast part of the country, but the list includes Kansas and Missouri) that still allow corporal punishment in schools. Hill’s elementary school still practices the policy, though parents can opt out. In the absence of clarity, many on social media argue their side vehemently with little room for nuance or reasoned debate. Each point of view comes with its own convictions, its own backgrounds and experiences and realities that are complicated, if not impossible, for the “other side” to grasp or appreciate. “People really don’t care about the truth,” said Derrick Shaw, Hill’s birth father, who
says his son is “not the type of person” he’s been portrayed as in the media. Google “Tyreek Hill should never play in the NFL again,” and you’ll find outlets from USA Today to Pro Football Talk calling for Hill to be banned for life from the NFL and outrage (reasoned and otherwise) about everywhere online, on radio and in newspapers. Meanwhile, Facebook posts by family and friends have suggested this is all about people just out to get Hill, using phrases like, “They did it to Jesus, they will do it to anyone.” In Pearson, Hill’s unresolved situation is as delicate and confusing and radioactive as anywhere, if not more so. Longstanding cultural tensions here perhaps played a role in Hill saying on tape that “these white folks don’t give a f--- about our kids.” Doubt or disavow Hill and risk being called racist, as has been experienced in and around a town that as of 2017 was 41 percent black, 40 percent Hispanic or Latino and 19 percent white. Defend him and risk regretting it as the story further unfolds. The dynamics remind Braswell, the pastor, of what he sees in news coverage on CNN and Fox News: polar-opposite interpretations of the same stories. As one who believes in love and compassion over judgment, one who thinks the world is a better place when we try to connect with people who don’t look like us or think like us, he prays for Espinal and their son, each of whom came to his church with Hill in February. And he prays for Hill, for many reasons, as he holds to the notion of innocent until proven guilty. “I believe all of the youth, they look up to him,” said Braswell, who lives in nearby Douglas, where Hill attended Coffee High. “He’s hope to a lot of them that they, too, can get out of the ‘hood.” For that matter, whether they are “white, black, blue or green.” At Downtown Fitness, which sits amid shuttered storefronts in the heart of town, local high school athlete Eli Meeks reflects that spirit of inspiration. He said he thinks of Hill every time he drives by Hill’s grandparents’ home. When Hill was home for his birthday celebration in late February and early March, the wide receiver visited the church to encourage youth there, Braswell said. And he spent a day at his elementary school that captivated and motivated teachers and students alike,
principal Jarred Morris said Friday in his office at Pearson Elementary. He dunked for them and danced a little, held back or flopped for a few races with kids before making sure to win the last one or two. And he left them with messages befitting a would-be role model, the principal said, about the importance of education — and that if he could make his way in the world, anyone could. Symptomatic of the scene here, though, Morris declined to speak about Hill beyond the events of that day. And Meeks expressed confusion over what to make of Hill now, saying he has been left “just wondering what he was thinking after he has all this that he’s been working for.” Hill was raised by the parents of his mother, Anesha, who gave birth to him as a teenager and is still very much in her son’s life but was unable to be reached for this story. Hill’s biological father, Shaw, became a story of hope himself. He recently earned his MBA, according to his LinkedIn profile, and now runs his own business in the Atlanta area despite spending part of his high school years here homeless. Shaw said he speaks with Tyreek several times a week now, but he added that Virginia and Herman Hill are rightfully referred to as Hill’s parents. The church, too, was a major force in Hill’s youth. Braswell said Hill was a good singer who led the choir, played drums and was on the “praise team.” He also believes he embraced what Braswell espoused. “We try to teach them to be good people first, good Christian people who love God and give our lives to God,” the pastor said, adding that “the value and importance of loving thy neighbor” and doing unto others as you would have them do unto you were paramount teachings. Amid the aftermath of the 2014 incident to which Hill would plead guilty a year later, Braswell said he offered Hill guidance over the telephone, telling him such things as, “Keep your head up; trust in the Lord; don’t give up. ... Any mistakes that you did make, correct them,” and to, “Confess to the Lord.” “I didn’t ask him what happened,” he said. “I just gave him counsel and let him know this isn’t the end.” Ultimately, Hill came to the church to offer what Braswell called a “bona fide confession” to the congregation. Braswell and the church are praying for Hill again. If he could give counsel now, the pastor said he would tell Hill and Espinal to “search themselves” and not give up. This time, Hill has even more at stake, including his role as a father and a potential new contract worth tens of millions of dollars. Suddenly, it’s all in jeopardy despite his consciousness of how fortunate he was to have a second chance he couldn’t have counted on. In an interview with The Star last year shortly after his three-year deferred sentence for domestic abuse was expunged and a Payne County (Oklahoma) judge dismissed the case, Hill said, “I didn’t want to be, like, another guy in my city who’s got everything in front of him and just let it all go.” Hill is in danger of becoming the most extreme version of that cautionary tale, standing on the precipice between needing to once again beg forgiveness or somehow otherwise be redeemed ... while the place he calls home hopes he rises again. “I don’t know what to believe; I’ve seen so many things,” said Braswell, who said he has not been in touch with Hill since the Chiefs star visited the church in February. “I’m just waiting like everybody else to see what the outcome is going to be.”
Why moving Preakness from Pimlico to Laurel Park might be a bad idea Peter Schmuck The Baltimore Sun
BALTIMORE — For those who believe the unfortunate chain of events that rocked the Triple Crown series over the past couple of weeks will be the death of the Preakness in Baltimore, consider the possibility that it might be just the opposite. The transparent attempt by The Stronach Group recently to change the working description of Pimlico Race Course from dilapidated to unsafe certainly bolstered the company’s argument for moving the second jewel of the Triple Crown to a heavily upgraded Laurel Park. The disqualification of Triple Crown candidate Maximum Security on Saturday tarnished the Kentucky Derby and robbed the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes of the suspense that fuels the three-race center of the horse racing universe. And, on the more local level, the decision by the owners of Derby winner Country House and Maximum Security to bypass Baltimore is threatening to turn the Preakness
into a rock festival that just happens to have a horse race attached to it. So, why wouldn’t all this be just another big nail in the coffin of Baltimore’s signature sporting event? Well, it might, but it also should serve as a cautionary tale for the Stronachs about the danger of turning the Preakness into a smaller, tonier event in the Washington suburbs. There already is a real question about how much excitement the Preakness — under any circumstances — will generate in the Washington area. Obviously, the hardcore horse racing fans in the Mid-Atlantic region will show up anywhere, but does anyone seriously believe the parochial affinity for the race and infield festival that generates annual six-figure crowds at Pimlico will somehow shift from Baltimore to Laurel? For that matter, is there really a hunger in D.C. for another big wine and cheese party in an area where the high-end Washington event crowd rarely ventures?
If you’re a Baltimore conspiracy theorist — and aren’t we all — you might think that’s all part of The Stronach Group’s evil plan. The Preakness vacates Pimlico for “safety” reasons, lands in Laurel to a tepid response, which leaves little choice but to move the second jewel to the architectural Hope Diamond of the Stronach empire — Gulfstream Park in Florida. To be fair, we all know Pimlico is a hot mess and has been for decades. The price tag to rebuild it on its current footprint seems much too high for either Stronach or the Maryland Stadium Authority to seriously contemplate. So, it would seem logical to move it to a nearby track that already has been significantly upgraded and has an ambitious master plan to redevelop the area around it. There’s no question that Laurel Park will survive and thrive if it gets a piece of the pie when sports gambling gets approved in Maryland, which figures to happen sometime in the next couple of years. The Preakness would obviously
provide added value, but that’s not what we’re talking about here. It will remain profitable as long as the Triple Crown series continues to generate strong media revenue, but that revenue depends on a declining industry that trades heavily on its history and tradition. When the stewards at the Kentucky Derby ruled unanimously to disqualify Maximum Security for impeding several other horses, it was the painful but correct decision to choose the integrity of the world’s most popular horse race over the economic impact on the sport. It has put a huge dent in the national attention that would normally be paid to the Preakness, which would still have featured quite a bit of intrigue if both Maximum Security and Country House were on their way here for a rematch. But the event stands on its own in Baltimore. Local fans will still come — some for the race, others for the music and still others just for this troubled city’s biggest party of the year.
If it were taking place in Laurel under these unhappy conditions, it would be just another nice horse race. The best course might actually be the two-track solution the Stronachs are so strongly against. They need to work in partnership with the stadium authority and city government to perform a more reasonable renovation of Pimlico and share in the year-round maintenance of it for the same short racing schedule currently in place. Keep in mind that the state still has some leverage here, since it already commits some casino gambling revenues to prop up the racing industry in Maryland and ultimately will decide whether Laurel Park gets sports betting. If the Stronachs are going to play hardball, this might be a good time to convince them that moving the Preakness to Laurel could turn out to be a swing and a miss.

They listed the options as follows: *Minimum fish size for the coast and the Chesapeake Bay *Slot Limit that would prohibit harvest of fish over 40 inches *Mandatory use of circle hooks when fishing with bait coastwide to reduce discard mortality *A provision that states could use seasonal closures in conservation equivalency proposals *Apply need reductions equally to both commercial and recreational sectors *Apply needed reductions proportionally based on total removals in 2017 to both commercial and recreational anglers What we can expect is a potential combination of possible actions including a coastwide minimum size limit, a slot limit eliminating taking fish over 40 inches, mandatory use of circle hooks, and proportional reductions to both commercial and recreational fisherman. While all these options remain on the table, its very early in the process, and it remains unclear what recommendations will be made and ultimately adopted.

in regulations is anticipated to be effective during the 2020 spring striper season. So, what does it all mean for local striper fisherman? One thing is certain; change to striper regs is coming to the coast in 2020, and is highly likely to affect inland striped bass fisheries rules for the Hudson River spawning run. The fact that states could use seasonal closures in conservation equivalency proposals is key here. Once methods are adopted to achieve targeted results, conservation equivalency allows New York, and other states in the ASMFC, to achieve the target sought by reducing or closing seasons. While this option remains on the table, it may not be necessary if adoption of a combination of the other options listed achieves the same targeted result in reductions of mortality. That’s where NY’s representation on the ASMFC comes in. I have full confidence in our DEC representatives on the ASMFC. They are professional marine fisheries biologists dedicated to protect the fishery while minimizing pain for recreational fishermen through overly burdensome or ineffective regulations. The process allows for NY to tailor regs that comply with the ASMFC, and achieve the desired protection, while minimizing impact upon fishermen. I was also happy to learn that the NYS Senate Legislative Proxy to the ASMFC is John McMurray. John is a recreational fishing guide for striped bass and other marine species in the NY Bight. He served in the US Coast Guard and as an executive with the Coastal Conservation Association (CCA). CCA is a sportsmen’s organization that promotes issues

like declaring striped bass as a game fish affording it protection against commercialization. I worked with John to protect striped bass and other marine fish when I was an ECO lieutenant in NYC. We worked together toward common goals like fighting poaching and supporting recreational fishermen. John has the interest of the viability of the stock at heart, and as a captain and striper guide, he represents interests of recreational striped bass fisherman. John has some interesting ideas on how to achieve the goals set by AMSFC with the least impact on sportsmen and women. Now is the time to consider getting active by joining or forming organizations that promote our passion of fishing striped bass in the Hudson River. Our biggest enemy here may be apathy.

be it, although Brett Gardner shook his head and said, “I wouldn’t call them that.” “We haven’t had our optimal lineup, but whoever we’ve rolled out there has done the job,” Gardner said. “That says something about this organization.” Judge came to the same realization about the Yankees’ depth as far back as spring training. “On those road games, when we’d send two, three regulars and the rest would be Class-AAA guys, they’d end up scoring eight, nine runs against the other teams’ major league lineups,” he said. “That told me we had something special going on. Our minor leaguers would be starters on most other clubs. It’s been exciting to watch.” The Yankees’ roster is

Clint Frazier, who returned from the IL this week, will be followed by Hicks, who will rejoin the team Monday after three more rehab games at Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this weekend. Hicks, a switchhitting center fielder, has battled lower back stiffness since March but is finally “feeling great” from both sides of the plate after a recent cortisone injection, he said. Hicks will likely take over for Tauchman, and Stanton could soon join him in the outfield, as well. Stanton, recovering from a stubborn biceps and shoulder injury, has been hitting without pain in the underground cage at Yankee Stadium and may soon graduate to live batting practice.

Friend worried over woman suffering depression I have known “Charlotte” for 17 years. She was a bridesmaid at my wedding, and we talk and text regularly. I consider her one of my best friends. Charlotte has had a tough couple years and has sunk into a depression. We live on opDEAR ABBY posite sides of the country, so I don’t see her in person often, but I can hear the change in our phone conversations. She even admits that she’s in a depression. Recently, she told me she feels she no longer has a reason to live and has considered harming herself. Because I live so far away, I couldn’t get to her so I could be there for her, but I called a mutual friend (“Sandy”) who lives nearby and asked her to check on my friend. I know things are NOT OK, and I’m extremely worried that Charlotte may hurt herself in a moment of despair. She has a therapist she sees on occasion, and I have urged Charlotte to be honest with her about her feelings. Charlotte says she will, but I’m not sure if she actually does. How do I help her? Is there anything more I can do than encourage her to stick with counseling? Worried Sick In Indiana
may not be able to communicate with you, but at least she will be aware. Whether Charlotte was serious or just venting, this is something her therapist would be in a better position to help with than you are from a distance. I am almost 50 and have huge regrets about a terrible decision I made in my late 20s. I was married to my high school sweetheart when an older married man came into my life. He told me everything I wanted to hear and showered me with all the attention I was missing from my husband. I became swept up in the fairy tale fantasy and hurt my husband, my true love, deeply. Of course, nothing the married man said was true. He never followed through on his promises. I knew the affair was wrong and it typically never works out, but I thought this was different and we’d live happily ever after. I try not to dwell on how differently my life would have turned out if I hadn’t fallen starryeyed in puppy love for that man. I only have myself to blame. Please warn your readers to not make the same mistake. Enjoy the life you have, especially when you are young. The grass is NOT greener on the other side. It may look better, but trust me, there’s a lot of hidden weeds. Wised Up In Georgia

Immunity to foodborne illness takes weeks, not days Around Christmastime, I had a bout of food poisoning that laid me up for a day. I believe it was from turkey. If a person gets sick from food poisoning and is uncertain where it came from, and then a few days later eats some of the same exact food item, will he or she get sick again, or has his or TO YOUR her body created antibodies GOOD HEALTH to fight off a recurrence?
DR. KEITH ROACH
There are some types of foodborne infections that people may develop a resistance to. Once a person has survived cholera (caused by Vibrio cholerae) or gotten the vaccine, that person is immune to at least that strain of cholera. However, this isn’t the case for all types of foodborne illness. When I hear “turkey,” I think of Salmonella infections, to which there is only limited immunity after previous infection, but also illness from Campylobacter, E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus. These vary widely in your body’s ability to become immune after illness. Moreover, development of immunity takes more than a few days (two or more weeks is usually necessary for full effect), so avoiding any potentially offending agent is wise. A few days after the bout, your system is likely to be more susceptible to infection due to inflammation, not less. In other words, throw away everything that is suspect.
I was interested in your column on essential thrombocytosis, as my husband had the same problem for about eight years until his death from heart failure (at age 90). His platelets had moved close to a million, and he was put on hydroxyurea for a number of years, which provided pretty good control. He eventually was switched to anagrelide. He had no problems with either of them, but was watched carefully and the dosage was adjusted occasionally. I had the impression from your article that, since a person is not born with this problem, it may not be genetic or inherited. I’m hoping that is true, but in the meantime, I’ve told our two sons to be aware. Most cases of essential thrombocytosis, a blood disorder of excess specialized blood cells called platelets, are acquired, probably through mutations during a person’s lifetime. People with very high platelets are at risk for both bleeding and clotting, and are often treated with hydroxyurea. Anagrelide is an effective treatment as well, but it does predispose a person to heart disease, including heart failure. There is a rare, familial form of essential thrombocytosis, described in only a handful of cases. Your sons are at low risk, but being aware is always a good idea.

Horoscope By Stella Wilder Born today, you can be rather formal, even in informal situations, and this is born of a desire not to offend anyone for any reason. Thus, you follow the rules and behave in an upstanding manner that you have been careful to cultivate throughout your lifetime. Indeed, “mannered” perfectly describes your entire demeanor, especially when you are in professional situations or thrust into an environment in which you know few people. You have a certain admirable style, and you dress well. You may actually spend too much on clothing. It’s likely you will go through at least one phase in your life in which shoes prove to be an irresistible attraction. You can mix and mingle with all types, and your ability to make others feel comfortable — even when you are not — is remarkable. You can be quite taken aback by another’s rude behavior, so much so that you may actually cut off all interaction with the person until you are confident that he or she has recognized and corrected the error. You can be somewhat stubborn. Also born on this date are: Cam Newton, football player; Salvador Dali, artist; Natasha Richardson, actress; Martha Quinn, TV personality; Phil Silvers, actor and comedian; Frances Fisher, actress; Laetitia Casta, model. 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. SUNDAY, MAY 12 TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You can make your way down a difficult road today. Focus on taking things one at a time, and don’t assume that those around you know anything. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — You cannot pull a rabbit out of your hat, perhaps, but you can certainly do something that those around you neither expect nor believe at first. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You may have to work harder than usual today to convince someone you are in the right. A past encounter provides the very clue you need.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You know just what you are feeling and why, but that doesn’t mean you’ll do the right thing about it today. That is still up in the air. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Self-knowledge is a truly wonderful thing, but it’s not the only thing. Today you must be willing to rely on someone else’s strengths. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Now is the time for you to put certain aspects of a very tricky plan into motion — very carefully. One mistake can mean disaster of sorts. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — You are ready to try something you’ve never done. You know it can be done, however, because the numbers all make sense. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — You want to spend time with a certain someone who wants to spend time with you. Today you can surely make this happen — in an unusual way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You may score what seems to be a major bargain today — but beware. It’s likely that you will have to pay up at some point, sooner or later. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — You cannot necessarily rely on what someone else tells you today, especially if it’s relayed in the heat of battle. Investigate further. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Someone who excited you in the past may well do something very similar to you today, but your reaction is likely to be very different. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — You are in no mood to let others run roughshod over you, but are you equipped to deal with such a threat when it comes? Don’t you dare yield.

Summer’s biggest
movie franchises D E K N RA
By JOSH ROTTENBERG Los Angeles Times
T
raditionally, the summer movie season has become synonymous with Hollywood’s biggest franchises. But as big titles invade every month in the moviegoing calendar (Disney’s mother-of-all-tentpoles “Avengers: Endgame” is already in theaters, and “Captain Marvel” — like “Black Panther” before her — grossed $1 billion worldwide in the first quarter of the year), it’s harder to tell which summer movies are truly events. We’ve collected eight of this season’s key franchise releases (defining a franchise as a series with at least three installments) and ranked them according to average box office. It’ll be up to audiences to separate the true blockbusters from the wannabes. ‘SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME’ (JULY 5)
“X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX”
Number of (Spider-Man) films: 9 Average box office: $290 million Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 74 percent Since 2002’s “Spider-Man,” Sony Pictures has kept its sole comic book franchise humming through an ever more complex web of reboots, sequels and spinoffs. Following up on Spidey’s highly successful re-introduction with 2017’s “Homecoming,” which fully immersed the character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, “Far From Home” takes the web-slinger — now played by Tom Holland — on a school trip to Europe with his friends, where he comes up against Jake Gyllenhaal’s villain Mysterio. The goal is to make it past “The Amazing Spider-Man,” which stalled out after its sequel.

ROTTEN TOMATOES SCORE
Number of films in series: 4 Average box office (domestic): $284 million Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 99 percent Injecting a simple premise — toys that come to life — with savvy humor and heartstring-tugging emotion, 1995’s “Toy Story” made history as the first fully computer-animated feature-length film and set the template for all of Pixar’s smashes to follow. But two decades on and nine years after the beloved best picturenominated “Toy Story 3,” Pixar pushes the franchise to an unprecedented fourth installment — with Sheriff Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the rest of the gang on a fresh adventure involving a new arts-and-crafts toy named Forky. Could audiences start to tire of this plaything?
‘X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX’ (JUNE 7)
Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 74 percent Released two years before “Spider-Man” and five before “Batman Begins,” Bryan Singer’s 2000 hit “XMen” helped kick-start the modern superhero craze, introducing Professor Xavier, Wolverine, Magneto and the rest of the Marvel mutants. But as the franchise has sprawled through sequels, prequels and spinoffs like “Deadpool” and “Logan,” the reception among critics and audiences has swung between wildly enthusiastic and meh, and it remains to be seen where this delayed continuation from the underwhelming “X-Men: Apocalypse” falls along that spectrum.
‘MEN IN BLACK: INTERNATIONAL’ (JUNE 14) Number of films in series: 4 Average box office: $207 million Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 66 percent Sony Pictures captured box office lightning in a bottle in 1997 when it paired Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones as secret agents charged with keeping Earth safe from rogue intergalactic aliens. Now, after two sequels produced steadily diminishing returns at the box office, the studio is hoping to give the sci-fi comedy franchise a new lease on life, with Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson and Liam Neeson stepping in to try to replicate the unlikely chemistry of Smith and Jones.
‘GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS’ (MAY 31) Number of films: 3 Average box office: $185 million Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 75 percent Technically the 35th installment in the venerable rampaging-giant-lizard franchise, “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” marks the third outing in Warner Bros.’ more

Plush-filled ‘UglyDolls’ movie: Stay ugly, friends By GLENN KENNY New York Times
STX ENTERTAINMENT/TNS
The latest children’s toy sent into the movie-transformation merch machine are the colorful, blobby plushies known as Uglydolls, whose adventures feature in the new animated film “UglyDolls.”
Adults who regularly buy children’s gifts will recognize the denizens of the movie “UglyDolls,” the plush toys of the same name. Milder in design than old-school troll dolls, these figures have a message: Idiosyncrasies of appearance and personality are not “ugly,” but rather emblems of awesome individuality. The relentless positivity of this fable is put across with such bounce-house energy that children in the audience may be bludgeoned into submission instantly. (It made this adult’s teeth hurt.) Here, Moxy, the most cheerful doll in Uglyville, wakes each morning just knowing there’s a child for her in “the big world.” Moxy and some of her misfit pals set out to find said big world, only to be obstructed by the Institute of Perfection, a land of pretty dolls presided over by a pert-nosed, golden-haired paragon, creatively
named Lou. He and some meangirl dolls in his thrall will stop at nothing to thwart Moxy and her dream. These characters are voiced by some of the most prominent names in pop music: Kelly Clarkson, Janelle Monáe, Blake Shelton, Charli XCX, Pitbull and Nick Jonas, to name but a few. Comic talents such as Wanda Sykes and Gabriel Iglesias also feature. Yet every aspect of this computer-animated movie directed by Kelly Asbury seems equally overdetermined and tossed-off, as if it were a caffeinated weekend project for everyone involved. The neon colors bring to mind what a “Candy Crush” movie might look like, while the never-ending songs are cute, flavorless paeans to self-love. Individual scenes evoking “The Lego Movie” and “Toy Story 3” feel like lifts rather than homages, and are blatant to the extent that your older kids might even notice.

Beating back sports stereotypes in books FEW FEMALES?: Fed up with
the lack of sports books for girls, this author and mom wrote one By MARY QUATTLEBAUM Washington Post
“There were no basketball books with a girl as the main character,” said Barbara Carroll Roberts, “so I decided to write one.” Her first novel, “Nikki on the Line,” is just what her daughter, Helen, was looking for in elementary and middle school. Helen, who played basketball from second grade through college, found few books that showed girls actively involved in competitive sports. In contrast, her older brother had his pick of tales of sportsplaying boys. Roberts wanted to upend the sports story in another way, too. “The central character is usually the star or becomes the star,” Roberts told KidsPost from her home in Oakton, Virginia. “I wanted to focus on the experience of finding your place on the team when you’re not the star. That’s the reality for most kids who play sports.” In the book, 13-year-old Nikki is a strong player on her county league team, but when she and her best friend try out for and make an elite club team, Nikki quickly discovers that she must play at a much higher level. The additional expenses for travel and uniforms are hard on her single mom. And Nikki has chores, like babysitting her younger brother when her mom works, that affect her practice time. Nikki questions herself, wondering whether her efforts are worth it. She knows her short stature will always hold her back in a game where height gives an edge. Is her love of basketball enough to keep her going? When it comes to writing, Roberts often feels like her persistent character. She wrote her novel off and on for years, but she advanced tremendously when she went to graduate school to study writing for children. An especially helpful teacher was the popular author Gary D. Schmidt. “Writing is like sports,” Roberts said. “There are skills that you can develop. No one gets by on raw talent.” Growing up in Cupertino, Calif., Roberts was, she said, a “very active kid who didn’t like to sit still.” But only in high school, in the 1970s, did she have a chance to try organized sports. They hadn’t been widely available for girls before, but a federal law — Title IX (Title 9) of the Education Amendments Act — changed that. It stated that boys and girls should have access to the

same opportunities in public education, including sports. Roberts then embraced basketball, softball, track and field, badminton and her favorite, field hockey. As she grew older, she became an avid horseback rider. “I also spent hours in our driveway, under our basketball hoop, rebounding for Helen,” Roberts said with a laugh. Getting to know Helen’s teammates over the years made Roberts keenly aware of the need to create a fictional team that reflected what she saw in real life: a diversity of race, culture and body type.

recently minted “MonsterVerse” after 2014’s “Godzilla” and 2017’s “Kong: Skull Island.” Teeing up “Godzilla vs. Kong,” due next year, “King of the Monsters” will provide the latest test of the remaining appetite for a series that already holds the Guinness World Record for the longest continuously running movie franchise.
‘FAST & FURIOUS: HOBBS & SHAW’ (AUG. 2) Number of films: 9 Average box office: $117 million
Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 57 percent Since roaring out of the gate with “The Fast and the Furious” in 2001, this series has adhered to a simple (some would argue simple-minded) formula of muscle cars, musclebound stars and high-octane smashy-smashy to increasingly robust worldwide box office. But with “Hobbs & Shaw,” the franchise takes a somewhat risky left turn, spinning off Dwayne Johnson’s federal agent Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham’s mercenary Deckard Shaw in their own buddy action-comedy. Vin Diesel is nowhere in sight.

Average box office: $91 million 5/8 Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 58 percent Centered on real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, 2013’s supernatural horror film “The Conjuring” scared up $137 million in grosses and strong reviews, kicking off a string of sequels and spinoffs that have delivered wildly varying critical and box office results. A sequel to a prequel to “The Conjuring,” 2017’s “Annabelle: Creation” was seen as one of the stronger installments but — in a summer that will also see Chucky reborn in a “Child’s Play” remake just one week earlier — it’s unclear how much appetite there is for scary-doll movies.
‘JOHN WICK CHAPTER 3: PARABELLUM’ (MAY 17) Number of films in series: 3 Average box office: $68 million 5/8 Average Rotten Tomatoes score: 88 percent A slick, hyper-violent action thriller starring Keanu Reeves as a hard-bitten assassin with nothing left to lose, 2014’s “John Wick” proved a surprise sleeper, spawning a cult franchise with its own increasingly ornate mythology. Impressively, the follow-up took in more than double the first film’s $43 million haul. But the third installment — with the now 54-year-old Reeves returning for more “gun fu”style action — will truly test whether the series can continue along that trajectory.

How to make the best pie, from crust to toppings By BECKY KRYSTAL & BONNIE S. BENWICK
P
Washington Post
izza. Poll everyone the world over about their favorite foods, and this cheesy, saucy, crusty combination is likely to land at the top of many lists. But how many of those people routinely make it at home? Not enough. We’re here to say that it’s worth the effort. After all, you can make your pizza any way you like. You can recruit your family and friends for a fun evening in. And the sense of accomplishment when you pull that gorgeous pie out of the oven: priceless. Heck, even if your pie comes out less than gorgeous, it’s PIZZA. You’re gonna eat it. We understand the obstacles. Getting a pizza is as easy as placing a delivery order or swinging by your favorite neighborhood spot. The dough can be finicky, unpredictable and intimidating, especially for novices. Plus, you have to plan ahead. Then, your kitchen gets hot — even though your home oven doesn’t come close to the temperature
a restaurant one can reach to achieve crust perfection. Thankfully, we have learned a few tips and tricks — and recipes — that will set you on your way to success. Sure, shaping dough takes practice, but the right recipe and technique make the job that much easier. We can also help if you would rather your pizza be whole-wheat. No wood-burning oven? No problem. A super-hot cast-iron skillet and your broiler can do the job. Once things are getting hot, move quickly. Have your ingredients prepped and ready to go. And don’t forget the most important one: your best can-do attitude. Now let’s start slinging some pies.
THE BASICS Crank it up: Heat is crucial. It helps give your crust the right color, texture and rise. So preheat your oven — as hot as it can go — for at least 30 minutes. Cook the pies on a surface that has been preheated, ideally one that will retain and share the heat well, such as a pizza stone or cast-iron skillet. Heating
your cast-iron pan on the stove top for a few minutes before baking works well. Just be sure to keep an eye on your pizza when it’s in the oven, because at such a high temperature, it can burn quickly. Give it time: Up to a certain extent, more time means more flavor. The yeast needs time to work, consuming sugars and creating the byproducts that make pizza dough taste so good. Time is also crucial for providing structure and lift. You can extend the process, and therefore the flavor, by allowing dough to rest in the refrigerator for a few days. If your recipe calls for just a few hours, don’t cut it short. Your patience will be rewarded. Stretch it out: Shaping the dough takes some getting used to. The Neapolitan-Style Pizza Dough uses bread flour, so it’s elastic and can stand up to more handling. Stretch it on the counter first and then drape the dough over your clenched fists. Regardless of your dough, use enough flour to keep it See PIZZA C6

David Brooks’ latest book traces his faith — and his second marriage Sarah Pulliam Bailey The Washington Post In the world of national columnists, David Brooks is a star. But in the last few years, the New York Times writer and author has whipped up fascination among a certain subset of readers for a specific, gossipy reason: They wonder if the Jewish writer has become a Christian. In his bestselling new book, “The Second Mountain: The Quest for the Moral Life,” Brooks, 57, one of the most prominent columnists in the country, traces his spiritual journey alongside his relationship with his second wife, his former assistant who is 23 years his junior and attended Wheaton College, an elite evangelical school. “I really do feel more Jewish than ever before,” he said in a recent interview. “It felt like more deepening of faith, instead of switching from one thing to another.” He has no plans to leave Judaism, he writes, calling himself “a wandering Jew and a very confused Christian.” “If Jews don’t want me as a Jew, they’re going to have to kick me out. On the other hand, I can’t unread Matthew,” citing Jesus’ Beatitudes as the “ultimate road map for life” in the book. Brooks said he was taking an annual walk near Aspen, Colorado, in the summer of 2013, around the time of his separation from his first wife, when he realized he was a religious person after decades of being an atheist. Brooks addresses “the crucial question” of whether he believes in the resurrection of Jesus, a core doctrine for most Christians where most Jews would draw the line. “The simple, brutally honest answer is, [the belief in it] comes and goes,” he writes. “It’s not like deciding which party to vote for, where you can sort of make up your mind. You sort of roll with the process and see where God leads you,” he said. He still hesitates to accept some Christians’ interpretations that sex is only appropriate between a man and woman inside of marriage, calling himself enthusiastically pro-gay marriage. “We’re defined by how we treat the stranger and the least among us,” he said. “I frankly think it’s a big mistake for people to bet their entire complex faith on one side of the sexual revolution. It demeans what faith is.” New York City evangelical pastor Tim Keller, who has been having conversations with Brooks for about five years, said that some evangelicals have been keenly interested in the faith of Brooks and Jordan Peterson, a Canadian psychologist who also has a large conservative following. (Peterson considers himself a Christian but whom some would consider unorthodox in his beliefs.) “In their own different ways, they have platforms religious people don’t have anymore,” he said. Even though one chapter of his new book includes his personal experience with faith, Brooks does not push a particularly religious message, Keller said. “Brooks has the ear of a lot of people and is basically saying there has to be a higher allegiance than your individual self,” Keller said. “It’s not a call to repentance and see Jesus.” Would Brooks consider himself a Messianic Jew, part of a controversial modern movement of people

who embrace elements of Judaism and believe Jesus is the Messiah? He said he doesn’t know enough about it, but he would probably say no. Rabbi Gil Steinlauf, who was rabbi at Washington’s Adas Israel when Brooks was a member, said that Brooks is living “a dramatic contradiction,” which is difficult for the Jewish community, but he said that “all of us live in contradictions.” “Do Jews cares that there is someone who is a celebrity who is also talking about a deep relationship with Christianity?” said Steinlauf, who will be the incoming rabbi of Kol Shalom, a synagogue in Rockville, Maryland. “Of course Jews are going to have strong feelings about that. He’s one of our own. That’s why he doesn’t want labels.” Steinlauf, who divorced his wife and came out as gay to Adas Israel in 2014, said he and Brooks spoke with each other about their respective divorces. “Do I personally wish he would remain fully in the Jewish fold? Of course,” he said. “My job is not to enforce how someone lives.” David and Sarah Brooks, who were married in a Unitarian church and had three children together, both declined to respond to questions about the end of their 27-year marriage due to a legal agreement that was part of the divorce. Sarah Brooks converted to Judaism three years into their marriage. Around the time of their separation, he began attending his thenassistant’s church Christ Our Shepherd, a nondenominational church in Washington where many evangelicals attend. He said by fall 2013, “strong emotional feelings existed” between him and his assistant, who later became his wife. But they were not having an affair, he and Anne Brooks both said in interviews. She said she does get self-conscious about public perception and their age gap in social situations. “The internet is cruel,” she said in an interview. “It combines into the perfect Hollywood story in a bad way.” While writing his 2015 book, “The Road to Character,” the two exchanged memos that led to conversations about faith when he told her he was having his first religious crisis in decades. Later, when he wanted to try

Columnist and author
dating her, she declined and moved to Houston to work for a Christian foundation. He started seeing someone else. After leading separate lives, he and Anne eventually got together and were married in 2017. The pastor of Christ our Shepherd Stuart McAlpine, who conducted the marriage, did not respond to a request for an interview. If Anne, who now works for the nonprofit Philanthropy Roundtable, hadn’t come along in his life, would he have had the same experience with faith? “I wonder what would have happened,” he said. “I mean, we can’t know the counterfactual evidence.” Anne said her husband “sits at the crossroads of Christianity and Judaism” but he says the Nicene Creed, a profession of faith, and he takes communion. “I couldn’t have married him if I hadn’t sensed that he had crossed a certain place of surrender to acknowledging who Christ said he was,” she said. “He would call himself a Christian, but he’s subtle about where he does use that name.” Did Brooks, who has not been baptized, experience a specific conversion moment, a common experience for many Christians? “And that’s when it happened,” he writes in his new book. “I was sitting in my apartment one day when Jesus Christ floated through the wall, turned my water into wine, and commanded me to come follow him. No, I’m kidding. Nothing like that happened at all.” Growing up in New York City, he cited the influence of Episcopalians during childhood, especially at a camp sponsored by the Church of the Incarnation on Madison Avenue. His process to Christianity “was as boring and gradual and incremental
a process as is possible to imagine,” he said. “There was never any blinding ‘Road to Damascus’ experience.” The gossip during the past few years in many Christian circles was almost giddy as people wondered, “Could he become one of us?” “I felt like his bodyguard because of the Christians ... who were bizarrely obsessed with him,” Anne said. “I didn’t like that he was being treated as a win or project.” Brooks said he sometimes feels at home in the Christian world and some days he doesn’t, saying some Christians have a “spiritual superiority complex and an intellectual inferiority complex” while “lack of rigor” is “certainly not true of the Jewish world.” “A lot of the Christians talk about (faith) like, ‘God told me to order a cheeseburger.’ Some talk as if it’s just a constant voice in their head,” he said. “I really don’t resonate with that.” He is not a member of a synagogue and observes Jewish holidays in a “less than rigorous way,” saying he practices faith mostly through reading and book discussions. The authors he cites as most influential in his life include New York pastor Keller, poet and author Christian Wiman and C.S. Lewis. He said he’s graduated from what he describes as Thomas Hobbes’s or Adam Smith’s views of the world, that humans are self-interested creatures. Now he believes humans are fundamentally good, broken but “splendidly endowed.” “Our culture is much in worse shape than I anticipated four years ago. We’ve built up a culture of hyper-individualism that really does separate ourselves from each other, and it has a morally numbing effect,” he said, citing President Donald Trump’s election. “When you get down to the core of yourself, you find this inimitable ability to care. And I do think that deep caring is planted in each of us.” His interest in writing books on character and morality, he said, came out of the question of how to “write yourself to the truth” and become a better person. “My whole career has been an attempt to be less shallow than maybe I naturally am,” he said. “You become very aware of how much easier it is to write than to live.”
By Tommy Orange. (Vintage, $16.) This polyphonic debut novel is centered on a group of Native Americans as they travel to a powwow in Oakland, Calif.. Structured as a series of short chapters featuring different characters, the book raises questions of identity, belonging and history’s relationship to the present. “There There” was named one of the Book Review’s 10 Best Books of 2018.
IN THE ENEMY’S HOUSE: THE SECRET SAGA OF THE FBI AGENT AND THE CODE BREAKER WHO CAUGHT THE RUSSIAN SPIES By Howard Blum. (Harper Perennial, $17.99.) Blum looks at the two men who helped track down Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, and whose work uncovered a secret Soviet spy network. The book reads like a detective thriller as it describes their efforts and offers a fresh consideration of Cold War-era history.
LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE By Celeste Ng. (Penguin, $17.) An Ohio town is rattled when the house of a wealthy white family is set ablaze. As Ng delves into the past to help solve the mystery, the town is further cast into turmoil by the disappearance of two newcomers, a mother and teenage daughter, and a custody battle springing from an interracial adoption. Times reviewer Eleanor Henderson praised the book’s “vast and complex network of moral affiliations — and the nuanced omniscient voice that Ng employs to navigate it.”
TIGER WOODS By Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian. (Simon & Schuster, $18.) There’s no shortage of biographies of Woods, but this one stands out for the new details it uncovers about the athlete’s rise to become a champion — and his eventual fall from grace. As Times critic Dwight Garner wrote of the book, “It has torque and velocity, even when all of Woods’ shots, on the course and off it, begin heading for the weeds.”

By Sheila Heti. (Picador, $18.) The narrator of Heti’s latest book, a female writer in her late 30s, wrestles with her ambivalence about having a child before time runs out. As the woman untangles her feelings — “I resent the spectacle of all this breeding, which I see as a turning away from the living,” she says — the novel becomes a broader exploration of creativity, art and selfhood.

SOUTH WEST NORTH EAST 1♣ Pass 1♥* Pass 2♠** Pass 4♣*** Pass 4♥ Pass 6♠ All pass *At least 4 spades **4 spades, 12-14 points ***Singleton or void in clubs
Opening lead: Ace of ♣ Today’s deal is from a recent youth tournament in Norway. There are many fine bridge players in Norway — they just bid funny. They bid quite well, actually, but their approach is different from ours. Transfer responses to an opening bid are popular in Europe and other parts of the world,
but they are just starting to make an appearance in American bidding. The exuberance of youth no doubt had a hand in the bidding. The final contract was terrible, but declarer had a chance when West found an unfortunate opening lead. South ruffed the ace of clubs in dummy with the nine of spades and led a heart. East rose with his ace and led another heart to South’s king. A low club was ruffed with the ace of spades. Dummy’s queen of spades was cashed and the jack was overtaken by South’s king. The nine of clubs was ruffed with dummy’s 10 of spades and the four of spades was led to declarer’s eight, drawing the last outstanding trump. South cashed the king of clubs, leaving this position: NORTH ♠ Void ♥ 87 ♦ A 10 ♣ Void WEST EAST ♠ Void ♠ Void ♥ Void ♥ J 10 ♦ J 5 ♦ K8 ♣ Q J ♣ Void SOUTH ♠3 ♥Q ♦ Q9 ♣ Void Declarer led his last trump and discarded dummy’s 10 of diamonds. East was helpless. In this classic crisscross position, South had the rest of the tricks regardless of East’s play. Nice bidding, I guess!
By Stella Wilder Born today, you can be rather formal, even in informal situations, and this is born of a desire not to offend anyone for any reason. Thus, you follow the rules and behave in an upstanding manner that you have been careful to cultivate throughout your lifetime. Indeed, “mannered” perfectly describes your entire demeanor, especially when you are in professional situations or thrust into an environment in which you know few people. You have a certain admirable style, and you dress well. You may actually spend too much on clothing. It’s likely you will go through at least one phase in your life in which shoes prove to be an irresistible attraction. You can mix and mingle with all types, and your ability to make others feel comfortable — even when you are not — is remarkable. You can be quite taken aback by another’s rude behavior, so much so that you may actually cut off all interaction with the person until you are confident that he or she has recognized and corrected the error. You can be somewhat stubborn. Also born on this date are: Cam Newton, football player; Salvador Dali, artist; Natasha Richardson, actress; Martha Quinn, TV personality; Phil Silvers, actor and comedian; Frances Fisher, actress; Laetitia Casta, model. 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. SUNDAY, MAY 12 TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You can make your way down a difficult road today. Focus on taking things one at a time, and don’t assume that those around you know anything. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — You cannot pull a rabbit out of your hat, perhaps, but you can certainly do something that those around you neither expect nor believe at first.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You may have to work harder than usual today to convince someone you are in the right. A past encounter provides the very clue you need. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You know just what you are feeling and why, but that doesn’t mean you’ll do the right thing about it today. That is still up in the air. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Self-knowledge is a truly wonderful thing, but it’s not the only thing. Today you must be willing to rely on someone else’s strengths. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Now is the time for you to put certain aspects of a very tricky plan into motion — very carefully. One mistake can mean disaster of sorts. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — You are ready to try something you’ve never done. You know it can be done, however, because the numbers all make sense. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — You want to spend time with a certain someone who wants to spend time with you. Today you can surely make this happen — in an unusual way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You may score what seems to be a major bargain today — but beware. It’s likely that you will have to pay up at some point, sooner or later. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — You cannot necessarily rely on what someone else tells you today, especially if it’s relayed in the heat of battle. Investigate further. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Someone who excited you in the past may well do something very similar to you today, but your reaction is likely to be very different. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — You are in no mood to let others run roughshod over you, but are you equipped to deal with such a threat when it comes? Don’t you dare yield.

Pizza From C3
from sticking to your hands or work surface, and frequently rotate. Top it right: Your standard delivery pizza may be loaded with toppings, but less is more when it comes to your homemade pies. An abundance can lead to a soggy, dense crust that isn’t cooked through. Precooking the toppings also cuts back on their moisture and ensures that they’re not still raw by the time the crust is done. You can always add freshly grated cheese, herbs, greens (such as arugula), honey and/or olive oil when the pizza comes out of the oven. Don’t sweat it: It sounds cliche, but the adage “practice makes perfect” is particularly apt when it comes to pizza. Whether you’re a novice or a veteran, things can go wrong: The humidity affects the moisture of your dough, you tear a hole in the dough, your crust flops over when you try to transfer it to a skillet or pizza stone. (Been there!) So what? It takes time to learn your dough and your oven. It’s okay. Patch together the dough, call the flopped pie a calzone and eat up. More practice means more pizza, right?
NEAPOLITAN-STYLE PIZZA DOUGH 8 to 16 servings (makes enough dough for four 10-inch pizzas) Recipe note: The dough needs to rest for 30 minutes, then in the back of the refrigerator (so it’s as cold as possible) for 20 to 30 hours, and for 2 hours at room temperature before shaping. The dough can be frozen after being shaped into balls following the first rise, for up to 3 months. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator or on the counter for a few hours before proceeding with the second rise. About 5 cups bread flour, plus more for the work surface 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast About 1 2/3 cups cold water 2 teaspoons sea salt Olive oil, for greasing Combine the flour, yeast and cold water in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough-hook attachment. Mix on the lowest speed until the dough just comes together and there is no trace of dry ingredients. Remove the bowl from the mixer, cover with plastic wrap and let the dough rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Return the bowl to the stand mixer; mix (still with the dough hook) on medium-low speed. Add the salt; mix on mediumlow for 7 to 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. Lightly flour your work surface. Turn out the dough there, shaping it into a tight ball. Use some oil to lightly grease a separate mixing bowl; transfer the dough, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 hours, and up to 30 hours. Re-flour your work surface. Turn out the chilled dough there, allowing it to gently release from the bowl. Divide it into four equal portions; about 250 grams each. Lightly grease a baking sheet with oil. Work with one portion of dough at a time, pulling its corners toward the center so they meet; press lightly so they attach, but do not flatten. The dough will tighten up and take on a rounded shape. Flip over the dough so it is seam-side down. Gently cup the dough in your upturned hands. Carefully move it in circles, taking care to prevent any tears. This will help create a tight, even ball.
Repeat this process with the remaining portions of dough. (At this point, the dough can be sealed in zip-top bags and frozen, for up to 3 months.) Place the dough balls on the baking sheet. Brush them lightly with oil and cover with plastic wrap. Let them rest at room temperature until the dough has nearly doubled in size, about 2 hours. At least 30 minutes before baking, position a rack 4 to 6 inches from the broiler element of the oven; preheat to 500 degrees or whatever its highest numbered temperature setting is. Have your pizza toppings assembled and ready to go. Place one dough ball on a well-floured surface, then sprinkle more flour on the dough itself. Starting in the center, work the dough into a small disk by pushing your fingers flat into the dough, leaving the edges untouched. Flip over the disk and continue until you have shaped it to about 8 inches in diameter. Before you move on to stretching the dough, preheat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on the stove top over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Open the oven door for 10 seconds if you have an electric oven (this lets some heat escape to make sure the broiler will actually turn on even though the oven has reached its maximum temperature) and then turn on the broiler (to high, if you have a choice). Drape the dough over the back of your hands and knuckles, being careful not to tear it. Gently rotate the dough, stretching it little by little until it is 10 inches in diameter. Carefully transfer the dough to the hot skillet, smoothing it into place with your hands or by sliding and shaking the skillet (use a folded towel or oven mitt because it will be very hot). Add your toppings, leaving a 1/2- to 3/4-inch border around the edge. Give the dough an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute to cook; this will help ensure the bottom crust will be crisped. Use oven mitts to transfer the skillet to the oven. Broil the pizza for a total of 3 to 5 minutes, rotating front to back halfway through, until the crust looks puffed and browned. Don’t walk away. A little charring on the crust or toppings is OK, but even a few seconds too much will burn the pizza. Remove the skillet from the oven, then use tongs to transfer the pizza to a wire rack to cool. After a few minutes, transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Cut it into slices, and serve right away.
PEPPERONI AND POTATO PIZZA 2 to 4 servings (makes one 10-inch pie) Here, the base sauce is a pureed mix of pepperoni, onion, olive oil and garlic; its spiciness is offset by the tender potatoes, nutty Gruyere and mild goat cheese. MAKE AHEAD: You’ll make more pepperoni sauce than you need for this recip For the sauce 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1/2 small onion, cut into small dice 3 medium cloves garlic, cut into very thin slices 8 ounces pepperoni, cut into thin slices (may substitute turkey pepperoni) 1/2 teaspoon fennel seed, toasted 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes 3 canned whole plum tomatoes, chopped, with their juices 3/4 cup no-salt-added chicken broth 1 bay leaf For the pizza 6 to 8 ounces fingerling or small Yukon Gold potatoes, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices (unpeeled) 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 portion Neapolitan-Style Pizza Dough see related recipe) Flour, for dusting 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives 2 ounces Gruyère cheese, thinly sliced

Tomato Pancetta Cheese Pizza.
2 ounces plain goat cheese For the sauce: Heat the oil until shimmering in a heavybottomed pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until golden and fragrant. Stir in the pepperoni; cook for about 5 minutes, until fragrant and evenly coated, then add the toasted fennel seed and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add the tomatoes and their juices, the broth and the bay leaf; stir to incorporate. Once the mixture starts to bubble at the edges, cover and cook for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The pepperoni slices will be soft, with a deeper color. Remove from the heat. Working in batches as needed, transfer to a food processor or a high-powered blender (including the bay leaf). Puree until smooth. The yield is about 21/2 cups. For the pizza: At least 30 minutes before you bake the pizza, position a rack 4 to 6 inches from the broiler element and preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Lay the potato slices on a rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, laying them flat again as needed. Roast (upper rack) for 5 to 10 minutes, until just tender when pierced with a sharp knife. Let cool. Increase the oven temperature to 500 degrees or its highest numbered temperature setting. Have your toppings ready to go. Place one portion of dough on a well-floured surface, then sprinkle more flour on the dough itself. Starting in the center, work the dough into a small disk by pushing your fingers flat into the dough, leaving the edges untouched.

Carefully transfer the dough to the skillet, smoothing it into place with your hands or by sliding and shaking the skillet (use a folded towel or oven mitt since it will be very hot). Spread 1/4 to ⅓ cup of the pepperoni sauce (to taste) evenly over the crust, leaving a 1/2- to 3/4-inch border around the edges. Lay the potato slices on the sauce, then sprinkle half the chives on and around them. Cover with the slices of Gruyere, then place big pinches of the goat cheese around the pie. Give the dough an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute to cook; this will help ensure the bottom of the crust will be crisped. Use oven mitts to transfer the skillet to the oven. Broil the pizza for 3 to 5 minutes, rotating halfway through, until the crust looks puffed and browned. Don’t walk away. A little charring on the crust or toppings is okay, but even a few seconds too much will burn the pizza. Remove the skillet from the oven, then use tongs to transfer the pizza to a wire rack to cool for a few minutes. Transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Sprinkle with the remaining chives, then cut into slices and serve right away. NOTE: Toast the fennel seed in a small dry skillet over medium heat, shaking the skillet often to keep the seeds from burning. They will become fragrant and slightly darker in color.
WHOLE-WHEAT PIZZA DOUGH 6 to 12 servings (makes enough dough for three 10-inch pizzas) Recipe note: The finished dough can be portioned, coated lightly in cooking oil spray or olive oil, sealed in zip-top bags and frozen for up to 3 months. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator and then let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before shaping and baking. 1 teaspoon sugar 1 tablespoon instant yeast 1 1/2 cups warm water (105 to 115 degrees) 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for greasing and brushing 1 tablespoon honey 1 teaspoon salt About 3 cups whole-wheat flour, plus more for dusting 1 to 2 teaspoons shredded ParmigianoReggiano cheese (optional) Combine the sugar, yeast, warm water, tablespoon of oil, honey and salt in a stand mixer fitted with a dough-hook attachment. Mix on low speed for 30 seconds. Add all but about ⅓ cup of the whole-wheat flour; mix on low speed until a dough starts to come together.
Increase the speed to medium-low; continue to mix for about 5 minutes. If your dough is looking very wet and almost pourable, add some of the reserved ⅓ cup of flour, a tablespoon or two at a time. Continue to mix, adding more flour as needed, until the dough begins to gather around the dough hook and looks stretchy as it pulls away from the sides of the bowl; this may take as long as 15 minutes. It will not form a ball or pull away from the bowl completely. The dough may look very wet, but all will be well. To test whether your dough is ready, pinch a small piece of dough away with your fingertips. If it breaks immediately as you stretch it, keep kneading. If it seems elastic and comes away from the rest of the dough in a stretchy, almost translucent sheet, that means the gluten has sufficiently formed. Lightly grease a separate mixing bowl with oil. Shape the wet, sticky dough into a ball as best you can, then transfer it to the bowl, turning the dough over to coat it on all sides. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise in a warm environment for about 2 hours, or until it has about doubled in size. (A closed microwave where you have just heated some water for a minute or two works well.) About 90 minutes into the rise, position a rack 4 to 6 inches from the broiler element of the oven; preheat the oven to 500 degrees or whatever its highest numbered temperature setting is. The oven should preheat for at least 30 minutes. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, then generously dust it with flour. Gently deflate the dough to release trapped air. Divide the dough into three portions, about 250 grams each. Roll each portion into a ball and then place them on baking sheet. Loosely cover with lightly greased plastic wrap and let the dough rest for at least 20 minutes, and up to 1 hour. (After this rest, you may freeze the dough portions for up to 3 months.) Generously flour your work surface. Transfer one ball of dough there and sprinkle more flour on top of the dough. (If you plan to use all the portions of dough right away, keep them covered.) Use your fingertips to start flattening the dough into a round. Continue to gently stretch the dough until you have a round about 10 inches in diameter, frequently rotating it and flouring the counter or dough as needed so nothing sticks. Open the oven door for 10 seconds if you have an electric oven (this lets some heat escape to make sure the broiler will actually turn on even though the oven has reached its maximum temperature), and then turn on the broiler (to high, if that is an option). Have your pizza toppings ready to go nearby. Preheat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on the stove top, over medium heat, for 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully transfer the dough to the skillet, smoothing it into place with your hands or by sliding and shaking the skillet (use a folded towel or oven mitt since it will be very hot). Allow the dough to start to cook and dry out on bottom (a minute or less; you’ll see it looking less wet and starting to puff). Add your toppings, leaving a 1/2- to 3/4-inch border around
the edges. Brush the edges of the crust with oil, then sprinkle them with the ParmigianoReggiano, if using. Give the dough an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute to cook; this will help ensure the bottom of the crust will be crisped. Use oven mitts to transfer the skillet to the oven. Broil the pizza for 3 to 5 minutes, rotating front to back halfway through, until the crust looks puffed and browned. Don’t walk away. A little charring on the crust or toppings is okay, but even a few seconds too much will burn the pizza. Remove the skillet from the oven, then use tongs to transfer the pizza to a wire rack to cool for a few minutes. Transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Cut into slices and serve right away.
ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE PIZZA WITH MUSHROOMS AND SMOKED MOZZ 2 to 4 servings (makes one 10-inch pie) 6 ounces sliced shiitake mushrooms Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing and drizzling Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper Whole-wheat flour, for dusting 1 portion whole-wheat pizza dough 1/4 cup homemade or store-bought muhammara (may substitute a combination of equal parts crushed tomatoes and mild harissa) 4 ounces smoked mozzarella, thinly sliced 1/2 cup grilled onions (optional; may use an equal mix with roasted shiitake mushrooms) Heaping 1/3 cup sliced banana peppers, drained 1 to 2 teaspoons shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for sprinkling At least 30 minutes before you bake the pizza, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Lay the sliced shiitakes on a rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, laying them flat again as needed. Roast for 5 minutes, until just tender when pierced with a sharp knife. Let cool. Increase the oven temperature to 500 degrees or its highest numbered temperature setting (for your pizza). Generously flour your work surface. Transfer one ball of dough there, and sprinkle more flour on top of the dough. (If you plan to use all the portions of dough right away, keep them covered.) Use your fingertips to start flattening the dough into a round. Continue to gently stretch the dough until you have a round about 10 inches in diameter, frequently rotating it and flouring the counter or dough as needed so nothing sticks.

Allow the dough to just start to cook and dry out on bottom (a minute or less; you’ll see it looking less wet and starting to puff). Spread the roasted red pepper sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a 1/2- to 3/4-inch border around the edges. Cover with the slices of smoked mozzarella. Scatter the roasted shiitakes and/or grilled onions, if using, over the cheese, then add the banana peppers. Give the dough an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute to cook; this will help ensure the bottom of the crust will be crisped. Brush the edges lightly with oil, then sprinkle the ParmigianoReggiano on them, as needed. Use oven mitts to transfer the skillet to the oven.
