COXSACKIE — A YouTube personality known for provoking law enforcement officers on film to see if they violate the First Amendment failed to appear in Coxsackie Town Court for a trial Tuesday. Police are accusing Tyrone Eddy, 53, of Enfield, Connecticut, of striking a Coxsackie Correctional Facility officer while filming a video on prison grounds. After waiting 30 minutes for Eddy to show up, Town Justice Wanda Dorpfeld issued a bench warrant for failure to appear.

A new trial date will be set when Eddy is found and brought to court by authorities. Eddy was issued a summons May 16 for second-degree harassment with physical contact. Eddy is accused of intentionally using his left shoulder to strike correctional officer Jeremiah Donnelly, causing the officer to take a step backward and feel immediate pain in his left shoulder at Coxsackie Correctional Facility, 11260 Route 9W, earlier that day, police said.

CATSKILL — Local artists and members of the Heart of Catskill Association prepared the renowned cat sculptures in the town and village Thursday for the 13th annual Cat’n Around Catskill. The annual gala will take place from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Historic Catskill Point on Saturday. Fifty-one cats will be auctioned this year, with one additional feline, “Grandiflora,” serving as a raffle cat.

Tickets to the event are $25. Last year’s auction of 50 cats raised $68,000, said Heart of Catskill’s Karen Robinson. “Some sponsors are so happy with the artists that they continue to sponsor the same artist in advance before they even see the sketch,” Heart of Catskill Association board member Joan Young said. Sponsors selected 52 cats from among some 80 designs that were featured at the See FELINES A2

Energy storage project under scrutiny By Sarah Trafton Columbia-Greene Media

CATSKILL — Town officials and local residents attended an informational meeting Wednesday night about a proposed battery storage project. Glidepath, an alternative energy company based in Illinois, presented plans to site 40 battery storage containers on 10 acres near the intersection of Route 9W and Route 23. The lithium-ion batteries will provide 20 megawatts of power. Energy storage projects are critical to support renewable sources of energy, Glidepath Chief Development Officer Peter Rood said. Part of managing the grid

“

With a renewable grid, these services aren’t always as easy to provide. The sun isn’t always out, the wind isn’t always blowing. Battery projects provide these services that renewable projects can’t provide as easily.

”

— Peter Rood Glidepath Chief Development Officer

involves matching supply and demand and making sure the frequency of energy stays within a certain range. “With a renewable grid, these services aren’t always as easy to provide,” Rood said. “The sun isn’t always out, the wind isn’t always blowing. Battery projects provide these

services that renewable projects can’t provide as easily.” Battery storage projects are essential to meeting Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s goal of becoming 50%-70% dependent on renewable energy by 2030, Glidepath Director of Development Erin Hazen said. “This is a chance for Catskill

to be leading the way,” Hazen said. The town of Ulster is going through a similar project with Glidepath. The original project proposed for Ulster was a 20-megawatt electric-generating power plant, which was unpopular with the public. Ulster resident Regis

Obijiski attended Wednesday’s meeting to share his thoughts on the experience. “When we landed, which is where you are beginning, we were thrilled,” Obijiski said. Glidepath has battery storage projects in Illinois, Pennsylvania and one under construction in Texas, Hazen said. Hazen said she believes the projects were well-received in those communities. “We looked for the best fit for the communities,” she said. Glidepath also made an effort to engage with stakeholders in the community from the See ENERGY A2

YouTube moniker “New England Truth,” refers to himself a First Amendment auditor. His videos show him recording law enforcement while they are on the job as he taunts them. Many of Eddy’s videos have more than 15,000 views. Eddy identifies himself as an investigative journalist, a business consultant, activist and an FCC-licensed disc jockey, according to his Twitter account biography. In one of his most-viewed videos, Eddy repeatedly calls a female state trooper “Miss Piggy” during a traffic stop on a busy road. Before the trooper gets out of the state police vehicle, Eddy can be heard calling her a “f****** extortionist.” The trooper does not react on the video as Eddy hurls obscenities at her. The video has over 19,000 page views. The video depicting the alleged harassment, “1st Amendment Audit/Assault Coxsackie Max prison,” has 15,079 views as of Tuesday. Before entering the main grounds on May 16, Eddy

reception held in January. Sponsors pay $500 to underwrite a cat, Robinson said. Of the 43 participating artists, 11 were newcomers, said Heart of Catskill’s Tina Gagliardy Annese. One artist, N.J. Wheelock, of Rhinebeck, is not new to the annual tradition but has not been able to create a cat in 11 years due to her battle with cancer. Now in remission, Wheelock wanted to get back on the horse. Wheelock experienced a loss of strength in the right side of her body due to her condition. Because Wheelock is righthanded, this meant she had to apply 106,000 bugle beads with a skewer to her micro-mosaic cat called “Starry Starry Night” inspired by “One Starry Night.”

points the camera to a sign on the lawn of the maximum security prison that says “… any device with audio recording capabilities… are prohibited unless specifically and individually approved by the commissioner.” Donnelly, a correctional officer for 37 years at the Coxsackie state prison, was assigned perimeter patrol from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Within an hour after the incident, Donnelly made his statement to police about his encounter with Eddy. “I was notified over the radio that there was a male on prison property videotaping near the front entrance,” according to Donnelly’s complaint. “I responded to that location and observed a white male with three cameras and he appeared to be videotaping the front entrance of the jail.” When confronted by any people videotaping on prison property, Donnelly said he is supposed to approach them and read Memorandum Civilian use of Video and or Camera Equipment on DOCCS property. Eddy had one camera strapped to his chest, another mounted to a stick and holding a cell phone attached to another

stick, Donnelly said. Donnelly said he attempted to approach Eddy multiple times. “He began to yell and shout at me, calling me an idiot and stupid,” Donnelly said in his written statement. Donnelly goes on to say that he was standing on the sidewalk when Eddy approached him in an aggressive manner, dipped his left shoulder and lunged at him, striking Donnelly’s right shoulder, causing him to lose his balance. “I felt immediate pain in my shoulder in the area he hit,” according to the complaint filed by Donnelly with state police. “I advised him that he had assaulted me and he replied, ‘Yes, I did.’ “After making contact with me, he started walking towards 9W again away from myself and my coworkers. He periodically turned around and yelled at us calling us names,” Donnelly added. A person is guilty of harassment when, “with the intent to harass, annoy or alarm another person when he or she strikes, shoves, kicks or otherwise subjects such other person to physical contact or attempts to threatens to do the same; or

she follows a person in or about a public place to places or he or she engages in a course of conduct or repeatedly commits acts which alarm or seriously annoy such other person and which serve no legitimate purpose.” The trial was scheduled in Coxsackie Town Court instead of Greene County Court because the charge is a violation, not a felony. Eddy was raising money for his legal fees, according to an online fundraising account. He had raised $350 of his $25,000 goal as of Wednesday. “I don’t think I should go to court, to be honest with you,” he can be heard saying in a followup video about the incident. “I think I should just let them come and get me.” Eddy says that the officer moved toward him and “basically assaults” him. Eddy predicted in the video that he would receive a bench warrant if he did not appear in court. Eddy said he is a pro-se attorney and was not concerned about the summons. “I am not worried about it because there is appellate courts,” Eddy said in the video.

“I’ve been working on this six hours a day, five days a week since November,” Wheelock said. “A section the size of the palm of my hand takes an hour.” Wheelock got the itch to get back at it at last year’s gala, she said. “I’m pleased to be back doing it again,” she said. “This project is my passion.” Wheelock’s sculpture and its feline companions will be on display from 4-5 p.m. Saturday at the Creekside Restaurant while appetizers are served, Robinson said. Young helped get the sculptures cleaned and shiny for viewing Thursday. Customary since the exhibit’s inception, the cats had been on display around town since the week before Memorial Day. “I have no artistic talent,” Young said. “This is my talent.” “Everything we raise goes back to the community,”

Robinson said. Thirty percent of what each cat raises goes to the artist who created it, Robinson said, while the rest is distributed throughout the community. “Every year we try to help Dutchman’s stay beautiful,” she said. “Our current project is putting in a music stage. In the past we have helped with new lighting and picnic tables.” Heart of Catskill Association stages the Music in the Park concert series over 11 weeks each summer at Dutchman’s Landing. The new timber-frame bandstand was made possible by a $24,000 donation from the Heart of Catskill Association with the remaining $26,000 coming from the village’s parks budget, Village Trustee Peter Grasse said. “We also have the Barry Hopkins Memorial Scholarship,” Robinson said.

Hopkins was an art teacher at Catskill Middle School. “He was an artist in his own right,” Young said. The group also donates to various nonprofits throughout the community, such as Cultivate Catskill, which will use recent funding to purchase new holiday lights for the village, Robinson said. “We want to help with beautifying the town to encourage visitors and tourists to come in,” she said. The auction will begin at 5 p.m. Raffle tickets for “Grandiflora” will be sold for $5 each or five for $20. “We also have souvenir glasses for $5,” Robinson said. Artists who are interested in decorating a cat can view the artist package by visiting catskillny.org Designs are due by Dec. 31.

“So they are never fully charged?” Code Enforcement Officer Elliot Fishman said. Rood agreed that’s the concept. “Their usefulness doesn’t come in being fully charged like a cellphone,” he said. “It’s usefulness is being able to charge or discharge.” Fishman asked where the excess charge goes typically when a grid doesn’t have a battery to regulate it. When there is too much power, lights may dim as the grid operator tries to regulate it, Rood said. In more severe cases there are outages. “This a better way to address the problems that exist on the grid,” Hazen said. The technology is safe, McKissack said. “Batteries aren’t new,” he said. “Lithium-ion batteries have become normalized commercially and deployed throughout the grid — our grid and globally. This is not a science experiment.” The batteries have a life expectancy of 20-25 years, McKissack said. One of the requirements for the project is that the company must develop a decommissioning plan, Rood said. Planning Board Chairman Joseph Izzo expects that other requirements will be adequate screening for the project, fencing and a barrier to keep cars from entering the site, he said Thursday. “The project looks viable and seems to meet all the

environmental requirements,” Izzo said. “I think we really need to look at the site plan itself in terms of fire protection.” Glidepath has requested a coordinated review, which means the planning board and town board would review it simultaneously. The county planning board also has to review the project, Izzo said, because it is adjacent to a state highway. This is the first battery storage project to come before the town of Catskill, Izzo said. Towns across the state are being encouraged to think green, Town Supervisor Doreen Davis said Thursday. “These initiatives are being encouraged to assist towns in New York in achieving ambitious goals set forward to achieve clean energy by the year 2030 in the state,” she said. “The town is working closely with the state Energy Research and Development Authority to ensure that we understand and develop a battery energy storage system permitting and inspection process. We are following their guidelines and also reached out to Scenic Hudson, Catskill Mountain Keeper and other parties to learn from their

experience working on a similar project in the town of Ulster.” If the project is approved, Glidepath hopes to complete the permit process by the end of the year and begin construction in 2021, Hazen said. “Pending regulatory approval, we look forward to contributing to an effort that will help smooth out the peaks and valleys of energy usage in our community and beyond,” Davis said. Construction is expected to take six months to one year.

get-go, Hazen said. Glidepath Chief Operating Officer Chris McKissack agreed that appropriate siting is important. “We look for locations where the grid can handle the interconnection and the capacity,” he said. If the system is overloaded, it can lead to replacing transmission lines, transformers or even substations, McKissack said. “We also look at market indicators of where it can benefit the grid the most,” he said. The Catskill location is right across from the Central Hudson substation where it will be connected, Rood said. The project will disturb less than two acres, one-tenth of which are wetlands, McKissack said. In an evaluation performed by the state Historic Preservation Office, no artifacts of cultural or archaeological significance were found, he said. The containers are equipped with a series of safety features such as a fail-safe fire suppression system and fail-safes for overcharging, overheating and short-circuiting, McKissack said. They will be monitored 24/7 by the company and also receive commands from the grid operator every four seconds so they are always charging or discharging, Rood said.

the Felony Lane Gang, which is believed to have a connection to several similar burglaries in Catskill in late August, Police Chief David Darling said at the time. The group is known for smashing the windows of parked cars, stealing purses and using the victims’ personal identification and banking information to access their accounts, according to the Saugerties Police Department, which also investigated similar incidents. As of Wednesday, the thieves had hit cars 70 miles away in Saratoga County, according to authorities. The Saratoga County Sheriff’s Office says it is investigating similar reports of thefts from vehicles parked at day care centers, gyms and parks. The Saratoga County Sheriff’s Office said the group uses rental cars, swapping them with a stolen plate from another vehicle. The group has been known to dress up to resemble their victims and then use the victims’ stolen IDs to make purchases or cash checks.

HUDSON — The Hudson Common Council is moving ahead with a plan to impose a temporary moratorium on short-term rentals while it works on a broader plan to regulate the rentals. The council voted to send the proposed local law that would put a nine-month moratorium on the registration or granting of permits for any new short-term lodging facility to the Columbia County Planning Board for its review. The decision was made after a back-and-forth discussion at the Common Council meeting Tuesday at City Hall, 520 Warren St. “As you know we are in the process of crafting a law that deals with short-term rentals but, in the meantime, because we want to do that correctly with a lot of public participation, we would like to propose this moratorium while we craft this law,” Common Council President Thomas DePietro said. DePietro went on to say that the proposed law does not affect anyone with a short-term rental, only those who are going to register in the next nine months after the law passes. Fourth Ward Alderman John Rosenthal, who helped craft the law with City Attorney Andy Howard and led discussions on a possible moratorium as chairman of the Legal Committee, called the law straightforward and fair, adding few people would be affected by it.

“It does have a hardship provision,” Rosenthal said. “Ifnanyone is in the process is about be putting an airbnb online right now [after the law is passed] they can come before n the council, plead their hardship and get an exemption.” n Under the law, a property owner may apply to the Common Council for a hardship waiver in writing and n submit credible proof in support of the hardship waiver application. After receiving the application from the property owner, the Common Council has to schedule a public n hearing within 30 days. The property owner will have an opportunity to be heard at the hearing. Afternthe public hearing, the council has 15 days to n

render its decision on the application. But the proposed law did see some pushback from council members who said Tuesday’s vote was premature. “No one has seen it [a draft of the proposed law],” Volo said. “The public hasn’t seen this.” Volo said he thinks the public should have a chance to look at it before it’s voted on by the Common Council. Firth Ward Alderman Dominic Merante, who, along with other council members, had not had a chance to see the proposed law before Tuesday night, made a motion to send it back to the Legal

Committee. Merante wanted the Legal Committee to review the law in its written form before the council voted on it. Before Tuesday, Legal Committee members had discussed a law but had not discussed its completed written form. Minutes for the Legal Committee meeting in August were not available. Rosenthal said he would support the law going back to the committee if the council wanted to, but he also defended the law. The committee repeatedly talked about doing a moratorium and had been taking input from the public for months, Rosenthal said. “Nothing in here is complicated,” Rosenthal said, pointing to the law. Merante’s motion did not get enough votes, and failed. Merante, 1st Ward Alderman Rob Bujan, 5th Ward Alderwoman Eileen Halloran and 4th Ward Alderman Rich Volo voted in favor of sending the law back to the Legal Committee. The other council members voted to move the law forward. But DePietro assured council members that there will be more discussion about the law and more opportunities for public input, including a public hearing to be scheduled. “This still has a long way to go and there will be plenty of public comment opportunities,” DePietro said. The topic will be discussed at the next Legal Committee meeting scheduled for 6:15 p.m. Sept. 25 at City Hall.

OUR VIEW

Prepare now for vacant jail space Now, Albany County has entered the Greene County stage from the wings with a story about its jail. Greene County officials might want to listen. State criminal justice reforms, which go into effect in January, are expected to keep about 90% of people out of jail prior to their court date. That means just one in 10 will have to be held behind bars. Albany County Sheriff Craig Apple recently announced innovative responses to the projected jail population decline. Part of the Albany County Jail will contain transitional housing for the homeless and counseling for veterans. Officials even changed the name to the Albany County Corrections and Rehabilitative Services Center. Greene County Legislator William Lawrence, R-Cairo, chairman of the Public Safety Committee, said a jail is inappropriate for both populations. Greene County Legislature Chairman Patrick Linger, R-New Baltimore, said Albany County is

thinking ahead. “Good for them,” Linger said. “I think it’s a smart move.” Smart for Albany County, but not so smart for Greene County, it appears. Apple was judicious in his approach to the jail. “This was the perfect opportunity,” he said. “We’re taking a building most people view as bad and doing something positive with it.” The first important point is that the Albany jail was already experiencing a high vacancy rate. “I have 600 open cells and with bail reform, I’m expecting to lose another 50 to 90 inmates,” Apple said. “I have this huge building with a big vacancy. What can we do with it?” The second important point is that the transition was accomplished at low cost. Apple and his team transformed the jail for just $10,000. That’s double what Greene County would have paid for a feasibility study of the jail now under construction in Coxsackie. Lawrence said he does

not think the new Greene County Jail could feasibly offer these services. “Our jail is going to be reasonably small,” he said. “The needs of the homeless are so much different than those of inmates. For veterans I feel the same way. They deserve to be treated better as well.” Said Linger: “There is a lot more space available in Albany. They have 1,000 beds in multiple buildings. They can take a full building for [the homeless].” The Greene County facility is not set up for that, Linger said. Yes, the Greene County Jail will be smaller than the Albany County facility. But Greene County is likely to face a proportionate decline in the jail population and a high vacancy rate, just like Albany County, once the state’s criminal justice reforms become law in January. In other words, Greene County officials should start preparing now for what they might see in the future.

Netanyahu’s defeat would be good news for Israel and United States The Washington Post

Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been Israel’s dominant leader for the past decade, suffered a crippling and perhaps politically mortal blow in Tuesday’s elections - and for all the right reasons. Having conducted a vile campaign directed at Israel’s Arab minority, Netanyahu saw his Likud party lose hundreds of thousands of votes and a critical handful of parliamentary seats, compared with the previous election in April - while Arab parties increased their representation by 30 percent. Following wild promises by Netanyahu to annex large parts of the West Bank, the first-place finisher in the preliminary vote count was the centrist Blue and White party, which opposes annexation or other steps that would preclude the creation of a Palestinian state. The election left neither major party with a clear path to a parliamentary majority, and in the scrum of postelection maneuvering, Netanyahu might yet find a way

to stay on as prime minister. But if Israel’s other parties stick to their campaign positions, a leader who has polarized his country and damaged Israel’s standing in the United States could finally be forced from office - or, at least, prevented from following through on his most extreme promises. At the center of the postelection horse-trading will be Avigdor Liberman, a former disciple of Netanyahu who leads a secular rightwing party that controls the swing votes in the Knesset. Liberman, who forced the election by refusing to join with Netanyahu following the April vote, is saying he will support only a “unity” government joining the Likud and Blue and White parties and excluding the religious and far-right factions Netanyahu has been allied with. For his part, Blue and White leader Benny Gantz, a former general, has said his party will not participate in a coalition led by Netanyahu. Whether those politicians stick to their vows, they will

likely resist any effort by Netanyahu to protect himself through legislation from a looming indictment on corruption charges, which could come within weeks. That could force him from office even if his Likud party does not move to replace him. A centrist government could also block Likud’s attempt to strip power from Israel’s Supreme Court and curtail a crackdown on human rights groups. President Donald Trump might be sorry to see Netanyahu ousted or constrained. The Israeli leader has been perhaps his most faithful foreign follower, and one who shared his antipathy toward the media and other democratic institutions. But Israel’s relations with the United States might be improved by a new prime minister. Netanyahu, who increasingly aligned himself with the Republican Party, has done much to polarize Americans’ view of Israel. Support for the Jewish state among Democrats has plummeted, according to polls.

The UAW is on strike against General Motors. Here’s what that says about today’s labor movement. Laura C. Bucci The Washington Post

At midnight Monday morning, around 50,000 General Motors workers went on strike. The last GM strike took place in 2007 - a year before the federal government bailed out the auto industry and before the global financial crisis. Over that decade, GM has increased its profits, making $35 billion in the last three years. Many plants are slated to close, and little of that money has made it into workers’ paychecks. Striking workers want to end pay and benefit divisions between temporary and permanent employees, and increase job security. President Trump, who has praised Midwestern autoworkers to drive up isolationist fervor, tweeted that the United Auto Workers and GM should “make a deal.” Here are four things to know about the strike and the state of the U.S. labor movement. 1. Strikes can be painful for workers but tend to produce results. The decision to strike is one workers take seriously. This collective plan to withhold labor requires committed organizing. Some employees will continue to work, and in doing so, they undermine the potential bargaining success of the strike. Companies try to discourage employees from striking, which helps the company at the bargaining table. For many workers, a strike means short-term financial hardship with the hope of a better contract to come. In this strike, the union is concerned that there are two tiers of employees - permanent and temporary - performing the same job, but at different levels of pay and benefits. This strike aims to increase new hires’ pay, promote a path to advancing at GM, and increase job security for all employees. Workers’ strike pay is only $250/week, meaning that workers who have bills, medical needs, or families are struggling. GM cut health insurance for all striking workers, meaning that they now have stopgap coverage from the UAW through a federal program. So why strike? Because strikes tend to work. A company cannot produce as much with most of its employees away. Many workers

emphasize that GM emerged from the auto bailout to make tremendous profits, while workers have been laid off as plants closed. Currently, GM is losing money that it could have made if cars were produced. Its credit rating has been downgraded. The Steelworkers and Teamsters have honored the UAW strike by refusing to cross picket lines to deliver supplies, compounding the cost for GM to refuse to negotiate. 2. Strikes are increasing in the U.S. In the past few years, the U.S. has seen more and larger strikes. Public sector employees - most noticeably teachers - held many of these strikes. But private sector workers have also been striking more often, including in the airline, hotel, grocery and ride share industries. Each successful strike shows other workers what is possible, inspiring still more. That trend might continue, given a recovery in which the upper tier’s wealth has expanded while workers in the middle and bottom income brackets have stagnated. 3. When the public supports a strike, unions have more leverage Gallup has asked since the 1930s whether individuals “approve or disapprove of labor unions.” In 2018, public support for unions had risen to 62 percent - which is roughly the same as it was in 1970, up from a 2008 low of 48 percent. Most people have fairly positive opinions of organized labor, with on average more approving than disapproving over the past decades. In ongoing research, I’ve gathered polls asking about support for organized labor, breaking that opinion down by state. Attitudes vary by income group; the rich tend to oppose unions while lower- and middle-income people tend to favor them. Opinion also varies by state. In Michigan, with a strong history of labor affiliation, support for unions is strong. And for good reason. In a 2018 academic article, I found that states with higher rates of union membership are also more economically equal, even after accounting for the degree of liberalism of public policy. Some research suggests that Americans are critical of strikes.

But how the news media reports on these strikes influences public opinion. In general, Americans do not dislike organized labor. When news coverage frames strikes as part of a bigger struggle for workers and communities, they are more successful. For example, news coverage of the teachers’ strikes tended to reinforce that teachers are underpaid and cared deeply about their jobs. The UAW has emphasized the unfairness of two-tiered contracts that treat temporary workers differently. That “fairness” frame may invite more positive news coverage. 4. Of course, no one yet knows what will happen with the UAW and GM. But expect more strikes. Currently, most coverage of the strike has reported on the workers, their grievances, their relationship with a highly profitable GM, and support for the UAW from the general public. Those narratives improve the union’s chances for a successful negotiation. But that could change. Officials in the UAW have been under investigation, accused of misusing union money. GM has told reporters about some of its concessions emphasizing its willingness to hire some of the temporary workers and invest in the plants. That’s part of a strategy to shape the narrative of the strike. The UAW has not yet said what it considers negotiable, meaning that many members aren’t fully aware of those options either. Democratic presidential candidates Joe Biden, Michael F. Bennet, Cory Booker, Pete Buttigieg, Julián Castro, Bill de Blasio, Tulsi Gabbard, Kamala D. Harris, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O’Rourke, Tim Ryan, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Andrew Yang have all voiced their support for the strike. With 80,000 Kaiser Permanente workers set to strike on October 14, this won’t be the last strike that catches airtime during the 2020 presidential campaign.

Feds say white supremacist’s threats led a black Charlottesville candidate to drop out Meagan Flynn The Washington Post

The campaign signs had been printed. The launch party was scheduled. And the African American activist was ready to join the race for Charlottesville City Council. He had sent out a news release announcing his intention to run the night before the party, on Jan. 7. But just 24 hours later, the campaign was over. Standing before his supporters, the black candidate said he would not be kicking off his campaign after all. Now, federal prosecutors say they know why: A white supremacist sent him a slew of violent threats the night he announced his candidacy. Daniel McMahon of Brandon, Florida, was arrested Wednesday and charged with bias-motivated interference with a candidate for elective office, accused of cyberstalking and threatening the candidate to the point that he dropped out of the race, prosecutors said. The candidate is identified in court documents only as “D.G.” but the Daily Progress reported that the details in the charges match the halted campaign of deacon and activist Don Gathers. The co-founder of Charlottesville’s Black Lives Matter chapter, Gathers also served on a committee dedicated to relocating Confederate statues in the wake of the deadly Charlottesville Unite the Right rally in 2017. McMahon, 31, allegedly threatened the candidate with violence because he was a black man campaigning for office, causing him “to fear death and serious bodily injury” if he were to proceed with his campaign, prosecutors said. “As alleged in the indictment, this defendant was motivated by racial animus and used his social-media accounts to threaten and intimidate a potential candidate for elective office,” U.S. Attorney Thomas Cullen, of the Western District of Virginia, said in a statement. “Although the First Amendment protects an individual’s right to broadcast hateful views online, it does not give license to threats of violence or bodily harm.” McMahon’s attorney told the Associated Press that McMahon “categorically denies all of the allegations.” According to the indictment, McMahon frequently promoted beliefs on the internet that “white people are superior to members of other racial, ethnic and religious groups.” On social media, he goes by the alias “Jack Corbin,” the AP reported - including on Gab, a social network popular with far-right users, where “Jack Corbin” identified himself as a “God d**** fascist.” That network is also where Robert Bowers, the accused mass shooter at Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reportedly encountered him. Before the shooting that killed 11 people in October 2018, Bowers interacted on Gab with “Jack Corbin” more than any other user, according to an analysis by the Network Contagion

It found that McMahon “showered praise” on Bowers after his attack, allegedly writing, “God bless that man.” And it found he praised James Fields Jr - the avowed neo-Nazi who was sentenced to life in prison after he rammed his Dodge Challenger into a crowd of counterprotesters at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, killing Heather Heyer. To intimidate antifascists, Right Wing Watch reported, he would frequently invoke Fields. “Hey Antifa, it’s simple,” he wrote on Gab, according to Right Wing Watch. “Wanna know how to not get Dodge Challenged or shot? Don’t attack Right Wingers ever.” Gathers decided to run for city council in Charlottesville as the city was recovering from the violence of the August 2017 Unite the Right rally. Dozens of white nationalists, white supremacists and neo-Nazis had descended on the city, chanting “Jews will not replace us” as they hoisted torches. The rally had come in response to a vote by the Charlottesville City Council to remove a statue of Robert E. Lee in a park named in his honor - and Gathers had chaired the city’s Blue

Ribbon Commission on Race, Memorials and Public Spaces that recommended its removal. Announcing his candidacy, Gathers said in a Jan. 7 statement: “The toxicity that permeates our City cannot continue; Charlottesville needs healing. We need leaders driven towards unification and inclusion. We need to figure out viable, reasonable solutions to our problems: affordable housing, the lack of a true living wage, and racial inequities in education, justice, housing, and other areas.” Gathers’s campaign slogan was “Community Driven, Community Focused,” and he had the résumé to prove it. He had worked in the trenches with Black Lives Matter, on the Charlottesville Civilian Police Review Board and was a deacon at the First Baptist Church. But at the launch party the next day, held jointly with fellow Democratic candidate and activist Michael Payne, something changed. Gathers said at the time that he had gone to a doctor’s appointment earlier that day, C-Ville reported. He said he was still having complications from an Oct. 14 heart attack, and thought he needed to delay his run for office for a short while before the filing deadline. He never resumed. It’s unclear what exactly McMahon allegedly said to the candidate or by what means, although he is alleged to have threatened the candidate through Jan. 10. Gathers also resigned from the Civilian Police Review Board the same night he canceled his run for office, the Daily Progress reported. “The alleged targeted and racially motivated actions

by Daniel McMahon were an attempt to disrupt the American political process,” David Archey, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Richmond Division, said in a statement. If convicted, McMahon faces up to five years in prison on each charge of cyberstalking and transmitting threats in interstate commerce. He faces up to one year in prison each if convicted on the bias-motivated election interference charges.

Mossin’ Annie and some moss garden wisdom By Thomas Christopher For Columbia-Greene Media

I recently spoke to a remarkable gardener — Annie Martin, or as she prefers to be known, “Mossin’ Annie.” Based in Pisgah Forest, in the Appalachian Mountains of western North Carolina, she operates a moss garden design and installation service. What she creates are rare intersections of natural beauty and environmental benefit. I don’t have to praise the beauty of moss gardens to anybody who has seen one. If you have, that probably occurred on a visit to an authentic Japanese garden, such as the John P. Humes Japanese Stroll Garden in Mill Neck, New York. That garden boasts a moss lawn and much use of moss throughout the landscape. The plush textures of the moss and the infinite range of rich greens make such displays unforgettable. It’s worth noting that greens, although the primary colors of mosses, aren’t the only ones. As Annie Martin points out in her book, “The Magical World of Moss Gardening” (Timber Press, 2015), seasonally and in

areas of brighter light, mosses can also blush red, orange or golden. Interestingly, Annie says she doesn’t believe the famous moss gardens of Japan were originally planned and planted as such. Rather, the mosses first appeared in these landscapes uninvited. Any gardener who has battled moss in the lawn knows this spore-bearing plant can appear seemingly from nowhere and can also be quite persistent. The genius

of the Japanese gardeners lay in the fact that they accepted the mosses’ arrival and chose to cultivate these plants rather than fighting them. Mosses are primitive plants — indeed, Bryophytes, the group that includes them, were the first land plants, appearing some 450 million years ago. As such, they developed the ability to inhabit what might seem to be inhospitable habitats. They can grow on the poorest of compacted soils or

even bare rock, and they flourish virtually everywhere there is sufficient moisture, from the tropics to Antarctica. This makes mosses ideal for disturbed, unpromising areas of the landscape: spots too shady or too compacted to grow grass or flowers. But mosses are much more than a last resort: their unconventional beauty and practicality makes them ideal for a feature in some prominent spot where the moss garden can be enjoyed on a regular basis, as in the view from a terrace or deck. Mosses don’t demand much. There’s no need for chemicals when growing mosses. They find their nutrients in the dust that settles out of the air, so they have no need for fertilizers. They are naturally pest resistant, so don’t need pesticides. Weeding the moss garden is a necessity, especially in the planting’s early years, but this is best done by hand rather than with herbicides. A moss garden must be kept moist — a light sprinkling once or twice a day is ideal — but they don’t require the kind of deep watering that a lawn

requires. To thrive, mosses must be kept clear of falling leaves and other debris. A careful sweeping is sufficient for that; if your moss garden is well established, an electric blower wielded sensitively will do the job more quickly and easily. There are a couple of ways to establish moss on your selected site and Mossin’ Annie goes into considerable detail on this subject in her book. You can create a favorable habitat of compacted substrate, keep it moist, and wait for the mosses to colonize on their own, but that is only for the very patient. Alternatively, you can install a patchwork of mature mosses, or you can shred moss clumps, scattering the fragments over the area to be planted and then stepping on them to firm the fragments in place. The most controversial aspect of moss gardening is where and how you obtain your planting material. Mossin’ Annie grows mosses from fragments and supplies the resulting sheets to her clients, even selling them by mail order. She also rescues mosses (always with the permission

of the owners), from roofs and even parking lots that are about to be renewed, and from moss-grown land that is about to be developed for new construction. What she decries, and what is unfortunately all too common, is the theft of mosses from public forests and parks. According to Mossin’ Annie, this practice is common among commercial suppliers of moss plants, and ethical customers should investigate the supplier’s source before placing an order.

Breathe Deep Albany walk/fun run for lung cancer Sept. 22 ALBANY — Breathe Deep Albany, a 5K walk/fun run for lung cancer, will take place Sept. 22 at the Crossings of Colonie, 580 Albany Shaker Road, Loudonville. LUNGevity Foundation, the nation’s largest organization dedicated to research for the early detection and treatment of lung cancer, will host the event for the seventh year. The walk/run begins at 10 a.m. with a program on lung cancer awareness beginning just prior to the walk at 9:30 a.m. Dr. Nischala Ammannagari, oncologist with NYOH, will be the expert speaker. In addition, hear

the story of 6-year lung cancer survivor Angelo Pastizzo. And, this year, Nicol Lally from News10 ABC will serve as the emcee. Laura Greco, a lung cancer survivor, is participating in the walk for the fifth year. In February 2015, Greco was in a car accident with her then6-year-old son. Fortunately, they both walked away from the accident with only minor injuries. However, during the trauma scan doctors found a large mass on Greco’s left lung that turned out to be stage 3a lung cancer. She was devastated. The 5-year survival rate

for lung cancer is 17%. That number has not changed in 40 years. Greco had never smoked, and she had never been exposed to undue risk factors. Medical public relations campaigns leave us believing that if you do not smoke, you need not worry about lung cancer. That is not the case. The only risk factor you need in order to get lung cancer is a set of lungs. “The only way that we will change outcomes for lung cancer patients like me is if we fund more research,” Greco said. “That’s why the research that is funded through fundraising events such as Breathe

Tom Lee performs at Olana Museum storytelling tour series for families HUDSON — Join internationally recognized storyteller Tom Lee as he performs for young children and families, along one of the historic carriage roads and inside the historic rooms of the Main House at Olana. This family-friendly tour teaches about Olana by highlighting some of its best stories. The next museum storytelling tour will be held on Saturday, Sept. 21, at 10 a.m. History is ultimately a set of stories passed from one generation to the next. Olana, created by artist Frederic Church as a family home for his wife and children, provides a rich array of these tales and narratives. Every object and painting in the Main House and every tree and vista in the expansive 250-acre landscape helps to unlock and inspire creative thinking and imagination. Tom Lee has worked as a professional arts educator in schools and museums for over 20 years, telling traditional stories, myths and legends from cultures around the world. Lee

Tom Lee

is a frequent guest artist at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism. He is also a performing arts partner with the Yale Center for British Art and Metropolitan Opera

Education Conference. Lee is currently the artistic director of artsVOYAGE at Spencertown Academy in the Hudson Valley. This public program takes place inside Church’s home and landscape at Olana and repeats

monthly, on Sept. 21, and Oct. 12, from 10-11 a.m. The tour begins at the Visitor Center. Space is limited, and advance registration is highly recommended. Tickets for Tom Lee’s Museum Storytelling Tour are $10 for adults, and $5 for members and children, age 12 and under. To register or learn more about the many other programs and tours at Olana this season, visit www.OLANA.org or call the ticketing and information desk at 518-751-0344. This innovative educational programming is sponsored by the Hurlbert Foundation. About Olana and The Olana Partnership: Olana is the greatest masterpiece of Frederic Edwin Church (1826-1900), a preeminent American artist of the mid-19th century and the most important artist’s home, studio and designed landscape in the United States. The house is open for guided touring, and reservations are highly recommended. The landscape is open daily 8 a.m. to sunset.

Join Grandma Moses and Robert Venturi at Linceowitz GHENT – When Simon Lince and his husband, Cary Leibowitz, met architects Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown, their goal was not to interfere. “Most clients come to a project with pages torn from magazines, drawings on scraps of paper and a pre-conceived idea of what they want,” Leibowitz said. “We asked for everything that all their other clients had rejected.” Other than that, the architects had free rein in transforming the 1830s farm house. And transform it they did. The added room is a modernist shed with floor to ceiling windows. But that’s just a jumping off point. There is also a 30-foot-tall façade of a pagoda erected 7 feet beyond those picture windows. “I’ve grown to like the back better than the front,” Leibowitz said. “I can sit on the sofa and look out at — or through — the windows in the pagoda.” The house, called Linceowitz,

a combination of the couple’s names, will be the focal point of a fundraiser hosted by TSL – Hudson’s acclaimed performance space. On Sunday, Sept. 22, ticket holders will be given a personal tour of the property along with tea, chocolates and baked goods provided by cohosts Verdigris Tea and Talbott & Arding. The funds are earmarked for the purchase and installation of solar panels on the TSL building. To reserve tickets, go to: https://timeandspace. org/calendar/linceowitz/. The tour will include – for example, the Grandma Moses room – so named for its unique furnishings. Originally a Victorian parlor, all the furniture and draperies are now re-upholstered in fabric printed with the artist’s works. “She had them commissioned in the 1950s,” Leibowitz explained. The front parlor is slightly more eclectic and includes Clark Gable’s backgammon

This 1830s farmhouse, along with its 21st century addition – including a 30-foot-tall Chinese Pagoda façade, will be open for tours on September 22nd. Supporters of TSL’s solar panel project can buy tickets to a meet-and-greet with the host/owners, refreshments in the Grandma Moses Room, and a chance to scrutinize more than 200 photos of individuals photographed in front of Mount Vernon. For tickets, go to https://timeandspace. org/calendar/linceowitz

table, Oprah Winfrey’s sofa, and a pair of chairs upholstered in an African batik “Obama” fabric. When asked if the couple plans on expanding, the reply

was, “Knowing Bob (Venturi) and how he wanted us to live in the house, whatever we do, it won’t be static.” For more information, go to www.TimeandSpace.org.

Bronck Museum presents ‘The Whittler and the Weaver’ On Sept. 22, the Bronck Museum near Coxsackie is pleased to offer “The Whittler and the Weaver,” the second of this season’s Sundays Along the River programs. Once upon a time, long, long ago before there were shopping centers, big box stores and plastic, there were whittlers and weavers who made most of the needful things every household required. The whittler with a sharp knife was capable of producing spoons, scoops, swingling sticks, whisks, funnels, soap dishes, brooms, knitting needles, and once clotheslines were invented, clothespins, too. Before the era of textile factories the home weaver produced the linen and woolen fabrics that helped keep their families clothed. A home weaver with a simple loom stowed away in the upper room of the farmhouse could provide yards of durable wool or linen sheeting, toweling,

blankets and bed coverings. This was a time when people actually made what they needed to sustain their daily lives.

Whittler Dick Brooks and weaver Charlotte Carter and friends will be on hand to demonstrate their skills and tell the

stories of their crafts. The second floor of the 1685 wing of the Bronck house, which houses the museum’s collection of early weaving and spinning equipment, will be open specially for this event and there will be displays of early handwoven textiles and examples of the sort of things a whittler produced for home use. The “Whittler and Weaver” program begins at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 22. Light refreshments will be served. The Bronck Museum is located just off Route 9W, 1.5 miles south of the intersection of Routes 9W, 385 and 81 south of Coxsackie. Adult admission for this event is $8, children and GCHS members $4.

GRIDIRON GLANCE: Hudson renews rivalry with Vliet By Tim Martin Columbia-Greene Media

HUDSON — For the first time in more than 20 years Hudson and Watrevliet will lock horns on the football field. The Bluehawks play host to the Cannoneers tonight at 7 in a crossdivision game. In other action tonight, Catskill/ Cairo-Durham plays at CoxsackieAthens, Ichabod Crane goes to Cobleskill-Richmondville and Chatham visits LAke George/Hadley-Luzerne at 7 p.m. On Saturday, Taconic Hills travels to Voorheesville at 1 p.m. Hudson comes into the game with an 0-2 record after starting the season with losses to Holy Trinity (42-7) and Schalmont (22-12). Watervliet (1-0), now under the direction of coach Pete Porcelli, looked much improved in a 60-14 victory over CoxsackieAthens in its season opener last week. “We look forward to renewing an old rivalry with Watervliet,” Hudson coach John Davi said. “They are a much-improved team this season. The arrival of Coach Porcelli and his double wing offense should make things interesting. “Our defense will have to step up this week and stop the run. Offensively we are getting better every day and intend to use our athletes to their full potential. This will definitely be a great matchup!” Porcelli has been a success builder of program wherever he’s been, leading Lansingburgh to six straight Section II Super Bowls from 2002-2007 and most recently guiding Hoosic Valley to two Super Bowl appearances in four years.

Hudson’s Zyonn Clanton carries the ball during the Bluehawks’ week 2 game against Schalmont this past Friday.

Kareen Duncan had a big game in the opener for Vliet, rushing for 150 yards and five touchdowns. Nick McNulty added a pair of rushing touchdowns. In all, the Cannoneers had eight rushing touchdowns in the opener. Hudson had been hampered by

inexperience and miscues in its first two games, but the talent is there to turn things around. Zyonn Clanton, one of only three seniors on the roster, is the team’s top offensive performer through two games, rushing for 186 yards and two touchdowns.

Sophomore quarterback Caleb Romano has completed 12 of 31 passes for 144 yards and one touchdown. He’s also gained 47 yards rushing. Clanton and Jeremiah Wilburn lead the Bluehawks’ defensive unit with 11 tackles apiece. Catskill/Cairo-Durham (0-2) at

Catskill boys earn tough win Columbia-Greene Media

CATSKILL—– Catskill boys soccer coach, Dennis Statham was very pleased with his team on Wednesday afternoon. Statham thought the Cats played well as a team in their 2-1 win over Patroon Conference rival Cairo-Durham. “This is the first game we played together as a team that looked like soccer,” Coach Statham said, “I was very pleased with the boy’s effort. I thought our defense played well and our midfield played well. It was just a good team win” Ian Alexander (32:46) and Ryan Carter (39:11) scored the Cats’ two goals. Alexander assited on Carter’s goal. Overall, Catskill took 15 shots on the Mutangs’ goal and had four corner kicks. Cody Young was the goalkeeper for Catskill and had three saves. See SOCCER B6

wins. The win over Brett Favre at Lambeau Field in the 2007 NFC Championship. The battering he took in San

Francisco in the 2011 NFC title game that he survived and won. Two magnificent playoff runs he dominated with his

arm. Manning set the standard for the Giants as Derek Jeter did for the Yankees. He led by example, never flinched from his responsibilities on and off the field, always accepted blame for mistakes and never blamed anyone else for theirs. It is a different role for Manning now, one he had hoped to avoid in this, his 16th NFL season, but one he understands had to happen. Coach Pat Shurmur went with his gut feeling and took the ball away from Manning and gave it to Daniel Jones in hopes of breathing life into an 0-2 team. Manning may end up playing again, but only in the event of injury or prolonged and irreparable and sustained ineffectiveness by See MANNING B6

A willing face of the franchise who never found it too burdensome to carry the weight of expectations. He produced iconic moments that will go down as some of the most important in Giants history.

Coxsackie-Athens (0-2) A lot more than a first victory will be on the line tonight when Catskill/ Cairo-Durham goes to CoxsackieAthens in a Class C South Division game. Bragging rights and the Greene County Cup will be in play when the two rivals meet. “This is a big game for us this weekend,” C-A coach Paddy Bailey said. “Obviously, both teams sitting at 0-2 sets the table for itself, but putting the cup on the line adds a new element. Through 2 weeks I am happy with the fight from our team but we need to execute better on both sides of the ball. “No one on our squad is forgetting a 22-point collapse last year and you can feel it in the kids emotion at practice. As always, I am super excited to square off with CCD. We always bring the best out of each other and definitely cannot underestimate them coming into Friday.” The Indians have lost to Taconic Hills (22-10) and Watervliet (60-14) in their first two games and are looking to bounce back strong. Junior quarterback Brandon Wolbert has completed 22 of 58 passes for 220 yards and one touchdown with three interceptions through the first two games. Catskill/Cairo-Durham was shut out by Ichabod Crane (44-0) in week one, but was much more competitive in a week two loss to Hoosick Falls (33-20). Mustangs’ coach Dan Hatch is hoping for continued improvement in tonight’s game.

NEW YORK — Few players have represented the New York Yankees’ injuryplagued 2019 season quite like slugger Giancarlo Stanton. Before Wednesday, he had played in only nine games because of a litany of physical ailments: a left biceps strain; a balky left shoulder; a strained calf; and, most recently, a sprained posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. But for the first time since June 25, Yankees manager Aaron Boone wrote Stanton’s name into the lineup — hitting fifth and starting in left field in Wednesday night’s 3-2 loss to the Los Angeles Angels. A win would have clinched the first American League East title since 2012 for the Yankees, who still had a chance to claim the division Wednesday if the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Tampa Bay Rays in a later game. Stanton’s return came at a critical time. With a week and a half remaining in the regular season, he will finally get an opportunity to face major league pitching in preparation for the playoffs, which the Yankees will most likely begin in the American League division rounds on Oct. 4. And with Mike Tauchman done for the season, Aaron Hicks also unlikely to return this year and Cameron Maybin playing with a sore wrist, the Yankees’ outfield desperately needs Stanton, a four-time All-Star and the winner of a Most Valuable Player Award.

“I’m here now,” Stanton said after Wednesday’s game. “I’ll use these games as a tuneup and be ready for the playoffs.” Because the minor league season ended earlier this month, Stanton, 29, has continued his rehabilitation at the Yankees’ spring training facility in Tampa, Florida, in recent weeks, facing minor league pitchers in the instructional league. He flew to New York on Tuesday and was cleared to come off the injured list after meeting with Boone and the team’s training staff. Boone will ease Stanton back into major league action. He went 1 for 3, including a standup double in his first at-bat, and played six innings in the field Wednesday, and he was expected to play the entire game Thursday as the designated hitter. “For not being out there for a few months, I felt good in the box and moved around pretty well in the outfield,” Stanton said. “It was a good start.” In Tampa, Stanton was able to do all of his agility, defense and baserunning work without any apparent lingering trouble in his knee, Boone said. Stanton initially hurt the knee sliding into third base during a game on June 25. “I’d like to play as much as I can to get at-bats, but I’ve still got to be smart with not being able to go on a rehab assignment,” Stanton said. When healthy, Stanton can be one of the best power hitters in baseball. The See YANKEES B6

THIS WEEK IN FOOTBALL September 19 1921 — Charlie Conerly is born in Clarksdale, Mississippi. The Ole Miss standout spends his entire 14-year NFL career with the New York Giants, racking up nearly 20,000 passing yards and 173 touchdowns. 1937 — Drop kick specialist Earl ‘Dutch’ Clark converts a 17-yard field goal for the Detroit Lions in a 16-7 win over the Chicago Cardinals. It’s the last documented drop kick field goal in NFL history. 1971 — The New England Patriots make their debut at Schaefer Stadium, earning a 20-6 victory over the Oakland Raiders in front of more than 55,000 fans. 1976 — The Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings play to a 10-10 tie in a game at Metropolitan Stadium. It was just the second game to finish tied since the NFL instituted a 15-minute sudden-death overtime in 1974.

Truex Jr. grabs the spotlight with early playoff success Field Level Media

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — There was certainly no shortage of drama – both on and off the track – in the opening race of the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs last weekend and that high energy will undoubtedly carry over to the second race of the 10-race Playoff this Saturday night in the Federated Auto Parts 400 (7:30 p.m. ET on NBCSN, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) at Richmond Raceway. Martin Truex Jr. won his series-most fifth race of the 2019 season last Sunday in Las Vegas and now heads to Richmond as the most recent winner on 0.75-mile short track – leading a race-best 186 of the 400 laps and holding off reigning series champion Joey Logano for the victory back in April. In an ironic twist, much of the “buzz” after Vegas was about Playoff drivers who didn’t fare as expected. But it’s a big shiny trophy that Truex and his No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing team seek, not necessarily attention. The headlines will continue to come as Truex continues to win races. And a second Cup championship would make him one of only two multitime champions currently competing – joining the ranks of seven-time Cup champ Jimmie Johnson. Even the laidback 39-year old, Truex, and his longtime crew chief Cole Pearn acknowledged the win – more than four-seconds over Kevin Harvick – at Vegas was a strong statement going forward. Truex started 24th at Vegas and still won – the farthest back on the grid he’s won from; outside of a 26th-place start at Dover International Speedway in his career first Cup victory in 2007. “I think it’s huge,” Truex said Sunday night. “I think it’s huge for a lot of reasons. First off, we’ve had a stretch of six or seven races, maybe six, that we’ve been really strong in. We feel like we’ve had cars capable of winning and we honestly don’t have a whole lot to show for it. We had no bonus points in that stretch. It was getting frustrating. “But we knew we were really fast, we knew we were working on the right things. I knew the team was doing a great job. It’s kind of like for us inside of our minds, it’s kind of an indication that, hey, we were doing the right things. When we can get things to roll our way, not make any mistakes, this is what we can do.” “Great time with the

Playoffs starting to be able to do it,” Truex continued. “I think a lot of people have been like, ‘Where has the 19 been? We don’t expect them to be that strong.’ We know what we can do. When we live up to our potential, it makes us happy.” Certainly then, the pair must be happy. The team has gotten in front of the Playoff intensity and already earned its ticket to the next round. Normally the team’s five wins would be a sort of natural “separation” from the field, but Truex has two teammates with four wins each – Denny Hamlin and regular season champion Kyle Busch. Add in their 23-year old teammate Erik Jones’ win at Darlington and JGR has a series best 14 wins through the opening 27 races – the most by a team in the Modern Era (1972-Present). It will be up to the other three team drivers to rally from unexpected outcomes at Vegas and continue what many expected to be a relative easy advancement to at least the Round of 12 in the Playoffs. The Top-12 drivers among the 16 Playoff eligible racers following the third race of the opening round at Charlotte’s

“ROVAL” next week will continue their championship fight. Busch had a much-publicized frustrating 19th-place finish at Las Vegas and has dropped to fourth in the standings, 19 points behind Truex, who takes the championship lead for the first time this season. Hamlin finished 15th at Vegas and is now ranked seventh in the standings, 26 points behind Truex. Richmond is poised to be an uptick for the JGR Toyota team, however. Not only is Truex the most recent winner there, but Hamlin and Busch are multi-time winners at 0.75-mile track. Hamlin, who grew up in Virginia, has three series wins and three NASCAR Xfinity Series wins at the Richmond three-quarter mile track. Busch has five Cup wins and six Xfinity wins. Between 2009 and spring 2011, Busch and Hamlin won every Cup race at the track. The two have accounted for three victories in the last six races there. Add their newest teammate Truex into the mix with his win this April and the Joe Gibbs Racing team has to be considered the favorite when the series rolls in later this week.

Gibbs, who has won four Cup championships with three drivers (Bobby Labonte in 2000, Tony Stewart in 2005 and 2007 and Busch in 2015) embraces the high expectations. He’s shown to be adept at balancing personality and pursuit. And Truex’s win Sunday is the right step forward. “What I’ve said is in pro sport, big-time sports, if you’ve got any weakness, it’s going to find you,” Gibbs said Sunday after Truex’s win. “I think the key is to try and be as strong as you can all the way across. You got to have great pit stops, obviously got to have the engineering group, Cole (Pearn), the crew chiefs. It just takes everything.” “I think we’ve worked extremely hard at our race shop. Coy (Gibbs), myself, all the leadership there, everybody, we go to work every day this is all we do. We try and make sure that we don’t leave a weakness. “That’s hard. You can’t really cover everything. But I think it’s just a lot of hard work, being careful with the people you add. I would say this, it’s all about people. You get the right people together, you’re going to be successful.”

Cowboys moving up in NFL Week 3 rankings Brad Biggs Chicago Tribune

Last week’s ranking in parentheses. 1. Patriots 2-0 (1) Antonio Brown made his Patriots debut with a touchdown, but the big story for is a defense that has allowed only three points through two games after shutting out the Dolphins 43-0 on Sunday. The offense remains a juggernaut and early returns are this is one of the best defenses Bill Belichick has had during his storied run in New England. The Jets, who likely will be using their third quarterback, Luke Falk, are up next. Could the Patriots post another shutout? 2. Chiefs 2-0 (2) Patrick Mahomes is off to an insane start, and while that is not a surprise, he’s on pace to pass for 6,568 yards — nearly 1,100 more than the singleseason NFL record — and the Chiefs’ offense is showing no signs of slowing down without Tyreek Hills after blitzing the Raiders for 28 points in the second quarter Sunday. 3. Rams 2-0 (4) Officials cost the Saints a touchdown in the rematch of the NFC championship game, but this time it wasn’t the difference in another Rams victory, 27-9. Wide receiver Cooper Kupp had five catches for 120 yards for the Rams, who travel to Cleveland this week. 4. Cowboys 2-0 (7) The Cowboys opened as a 20 ½-point favorite over the Dolphins, the biggest point spread they have been favored by in more than 30 years, and a sign of how pathetic the Dolphins are. The Cowboys are only getting stronger as defensive end Robert Quinn will make his debut this week after serving a twogame suspension. That adds a new piece to a talented defense, one the Cowboys probably won’t need in this game. 5. Ravens 2-0 (8) Lamar Jackson ran for a career-high 120 yards, but everyone was talking about the huge throw he made on third-and-11 with three minutes to play and the Ravens leading the Cardinals 23-17. He threw a beautiful dart to Marquise Brown for a 41-yard gain as the Ravens put the game away. After two weeks, Jackson leads the NFL with a 145.2 passer rating and is tied for first with seven touchdown passes. He is averaging 10.5 yards per attempt. 6. Eagles 1-1 (6) Philadelphia left Atlanta limping Sunday night, nursing a series of injuries after the loss, issues that will have to be addressed before the Lions visit this week. Wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (calf) and DeSean Jackson (groin) left the game and could miss time. Tight end Dallas Goedert (calf) also was banged up, and the worst injury likely was suffered by defensive tackle Tim Jernigan (foot). 7. Saints 1-1 (3) New Orleans suffered a major loss when Drew Brees went out with a torn ligament in his right thumb in Sunday’s loss to the Rams. Brees is expected to

miss about six weeks, and the Saints will have to hang in there during his absence. It’s going to make it difficult for them to battle for the top seed and all-important home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs. How much do you believe in fill-in replacement Teddy Bridgewater? 8. Packers 2-0 (10) The Packers’ impressive start has given them a leg up in the NFC North as they followed a victory over the Bears with a 2116 win against the Vikings. The offense was balanced as there were 34 passes and 33 runs with Aaron Jones carrying 23 times for 116 yards and a touchdown. Jones could become the Packers’ first 1,000-yard rusher since Eddie Lacy in 2014. 9. Seahawks 2-0 (11) No complaints in Seattle after the Seahawks earned narrow victories over the Bengals and Steelers to open the season a year after they started 0-2. The Seahawks haven’t been perfect, but they did enough to hold off the Steelers on Sunday, giving Pete Carroll his 100th victory as Seahawks coach on his 68th birthday. The Drew Brees-less Saints to come to Seattle this week and defensive end Ziggy Ansah should make his Seahawks debut after sitting out the first two games. 10. Chargers 1-1 (5) Adrian Phillips, the replacement for talented safety Derwin James, was lost to a broken arm, challenging the Chargers’ secondary depth even more. Kicking issues continue to linger. With Michael Badgley injured, punter Ty Long did double duty for the second straight week and missed from 39 and 41 yards in a 13-10 loss to the Lions in Detroit. 11. Vikings 1-1 (9) A bad offensive pass-interference penalty wiped out a Vikings touchdown, but the reality is they didn’t do enough to win on the road at Lambeau Field. Quarterback Kirk Cousins is taking heat for squandering an opportunity to take the lead late in the fourth quarter. The Vikings had clawed back from a 21-0 deficit to trail by five when they had first-and-goal from the 8-yard line. Cousins forced a pass to Stefon Diggs in tight coverage and Kevin King picked

off the pass in the end zone with 5:10 remaining. The Vikings paid Cousins to make big plays in big moments like that, and he needs to start delivering. 12. Falcons 1-1 (20) Julio Jones went 54 yards on a screen pass for a touchdown to put the Falcons ahead in the fourth quarter against the Eagles, but the big story in the victory was the defense. Desmond Trufant had two interceptions and pass rusher Vic Beasley had a sack and three quarterback hits to steady the Falcons after a disappointing effort in Minnesota. They embark on a tour through the AFC South next with the Colts, Titans and Texans in the next three weeks. 13. 49ers 2-0 (22) With the 49ers starting the season in Tampa Bay, followed by a trip to Cincinnati, coach Kyle Shanahan made the decision to spend the week in Ohio preparing. It paid off as the 49ers crushed the Bengals to improve to 2-0 for the first time since 2012. It’s premature to tout the Niners as a playoff contender, and the Rams and Seahawks are also 2-0 in the NFC West, but it’s a great start and both wins were blowouts. Shanahan’s team returns for its home opener against a Steelers team ravaged by injuries after losing quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. A victory would make the 49ers 3-0 for the first time since 1998. 14. Bills 2-0 (18) It could be a while before the Jets or Giants have more wins at MetLife Stadium this season than the Bills. That’s because the Bills completed a New York sweep, opening the season with victories over the Jets and Giants on the road. Quarterback Josh Allen played well in a win over the Giants, and the defense did the rest. The Bills are looking to start 3-0 for the first time since 2011, and they will be favored at home against the Bengals. It’s the beginning of a home stretch as the Bills have five home games and an open date in the next seven weeks. 15. Bears 1-1 (13) Eddy Pineiro was the hero of the week for the Bears as he nailed three field goals, including a 53-yarder on the game’s final play, to lift them to a 16-14

victory over the Broncos in Denver. It was a reassuring moment for the team as it started the season with so many questions about the kicking situation. The defense played well, but the offense and quarterback Mitch Trubisky continue to struggle as the team has one touchdown through two games. Allen Robinson is the only wide receiver making plays in the passing game and there has been very little vertical action downfield. 16. Texans 1-1 (14) The Texans struggled protecting quarterback Deshaun Watson — what else is new? — in a 13-12 victory over the Jaguars as the quarterback was sacked four times and the Jags totaled seven quarterback hits. The Texans are having difficulty picking up blitzes and identifying where pressure is coming from, something Bill O’Brien’s team needs to clean up quickly as they prepare to face the Chargers in Los Angeles this week. 17. Browns 1-1 (21) The Browns cleaned up their act after an undisciplined and embarrassing effort in the opener, controlling Monday night’s win over the Jets from start to finish. It was the Browns’ first win on Monday night since 2008. Defensive end Myles Garrett has become an absolute menace coming off the edge. 18. Colts 1-1 (15) The Colts hung on for a 1917 victory over the Titans and did so despite Adam Vinatieri missing two extra points. The 46-year-old, who is the NFL’s all-time leading scorer and is in his 24th season, has missed seven kicks over the last three games dating to the Colts’ playoff appearance last January. There was speculation Sunday that Vinatieri would abruptly retire, and owner Jim Irsay had pointed remarks following the game, but Vinatieri met with coach Frank Reich on Monday and will continue this week as the Colts prepare for the Falcons. 19. Titans 1-1 (12) The Titans have some core

offensive issues to address after a two-point home loss to the Colts on Sunday. The Titans are 3 for 20 on third down after two games, and what’s worse is that 13 of those third-down situations have been third-and-10 or more. That has put too much pressure on quarterback Marcus Mariota, who doesn’t have the best group of wide receivers. Protecting Mariota has also been problematic. He has been sacked eight times, and as injury-prone as Mariota has proved to be, that’s not sustainable. 20. Lions 1-0-1 (26) With left tackle Taylor Decker sidelined with a back injury, Tyrell Crosby filled in and the offensive line did a commendable job protecting Matthew Stafford. Stafford was not sacked in a 13-10 home win over the Chargers, who have a pair of talented pass rushers in Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram. It wasn’t a great effort, but the Lions have been shaky on the line and they held up. Now it’s worth wondering if the men in the trenches can open some holes in the running game as the Lions prepare for the stingy Eagles, who are allowing only 42.5 rushing yards per game. 21. Steelers 0-2 (17) What started as a season in transition for the Steelers, as they face life without wide receiver Antonio Brown and running back Le’Veon Bell, now takes on a whole new dimension as quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been lost for the season with a right elbow injury that will require surgery. The Steelers turn to Mason Rudolph, and if nothing else it will give the organization an opportunity to evaluate him. 22. Buccaneers 1-1 (30) The biggest development through two weeks for offensive-minded coach Bruce Arians has been the improvement of a defense that was the worst in the league last season. Cornerback Vernon Hargreaves wrestled Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey out of bounds near the goal line to

preserve a 20-14 victory Thursday at Carolina. McCaffrey shredded the Bucs twice a year ago, but they limited him to 53 yards from scrimmage. It’s a credit to defensive coordinator Todd Bowles. 23. Jaguars 0-2 (19) Gardner Minshew’s first start wasn’t a smash hit, but on the road against a talented Texans defense, he held his own and directed a 68-yard touchdown drive in the fourth quarter, converting a fourth-and-10 with an 18-yard run. Minshew finished 23 of 33 for 213 yards, but he’ll need to be better with the Jaguars in an 0-2 hole and questions of dysfunction coming now as star cornerback Jalen Ramsey reportedly has requested a trade. 24. Panthers 0-2 (16) The Panthers have some problems as they lost at home for the second time in five days, falling to the Bucs 20-14 on Thursday night. The Bucs were able to hold running back Christian McCaffrey in check and Cam Newton hasn’t been the dual threat that has made him one the most dangerous quarterbacks in the league. Newton, who suffered a sprained ankle during the preseason, has five carries for minus-2 yards through two games. On two fourth-and-1 situations against the Bucs, he threw an incomplete pass and was a decoy on a failed McCaffrey run. The Panthers have a long layoff to prepare for a trip to Arizona in what is close to a must-win game. 25. Cardinals 0-1-1 (27) The Cardinals the Ravens closer than expected and perhaps got a glimpse of things to come as rookie Kyler Murray completed 25 of 40 passes for 349 yards. He didn’t have any touchdowns, but he also didn’t commit any turnovers as he settles into Kliff Kingsbury’s offense. Murray became only the second quarterback to pass for more than 300 yards in his first two games, following Cam Newton, who did it in 2011.

Jets limp into Foxborough to face roaring Patriots Field Level Media

Tom Brady and the New England Patriots dominated the Miami Dolphins last week, and now the defending champions get another chance to beat a struggling divisional opponent. Brady and the Patriots host the winless New York Jets on Sunday afternoon in Foxborough, Mass., seeking their seventh straight win in the series. As a starter Brady is 28-8 all-time (including playoffs) against the Jets, and New England has not lost to New York since Ryan Fitzpatrick connected with Eric Decker for a 6-yard touchdown in overtime on Dec. 27, 2015. Brady and the Patriots also have won the past eight regular-season meetings in Foxborough since a 28-14 loss on Sept. 19,

2010. The past three have seen the Patriots outscore the Jets 105-12. “All the way across, we’ve got a lot of work to do,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. “I’d say mentally this is not the easiest game because of the amount of things that they do and how well they do them. So that’ll be a challenge for us here, as well as just what normally comes with preparation for the game.” During those past three home blowouts over the Jets, Brady has completed 59 of 97 passes for 654 yards and nine touchdowns. Brady, who was limited at Wednesday’s practice with what’s believed to be a minor calf injury, and the Patriots put up similar numbers through two weeks in easy wins over Pittsburgh and Miami. Attempting to open 3-0 for the first time since the 2016 season, they

have outscored their opponents 763, and Brady has completed 44 of 64 passes for 605 yards and five touchdowns. One of those TDs was to Antonio Brown, who had four catches for 56 yards in his New England debut last week. Brown’s status for Sunday’s game is unclear, as he is being investigated under the NFL’s personal conduct policy following accusations of sexual assault. Since Brady became the starter in 2001, the Jets have used 11 different starting quarterbacks against New England, and Luke Falk will be the 12th. The Jets were hoping Sam Darnold would make his second career start against New England, but he was diagnosed with mononucleosis last week. “They’re rolling pretty good,” Jets coach Adam Gase said of the

Patriots. “It seems like they have really good continuity going on right now in a short period of time, playing well off each other, unselfish football. Guys are playing with energy, playing violent. Nobody’s consistently moved the ball on them yet. So. it’s going to be a challenge.” Darnold’s fill-in, Trevor Siemian, suffered significant ligament damage in his left ankle while absorbing a hit from Myles Garrett in Monday’s 23-3 loss to Cleveland. Siemian was ruled out for the season Tuesday, and Falk will make the start in New England. Falk, who starred at Washington State, completed 20 of 25 passes for 198 yards without committing a turnover in his NFL debut after spending last season with Gase in Miami.

Falk will be hoping to keep the Jets from their first 0-3 start since they lost their first four games in 2003. Darnold told reporters Wednesday he is targeting a return in Week 5 in Philadelphia after New York’s bye week, which would limit Falk to just one start. New York gave up 325 yards to Baker Mayfield and has been outscored 40-3 since Le’Veon Bell scored the Jets lone offensive touchdown in the third quarter of Week 1 against Buffalo. The Jets lost linebacker C.J. Mosley to a groin injury in the second half of their season opener. He sat out Monday, did not practice Wednesday and may be out this week. Top rookie Quinnen Williams (ankle) and wideout Demaryius Thomas (hamstring/knee) also sat out Wednesday.

Optimism high for 2-0 Bills, who face 0-2 Bengals Field Level Media

The Buffalo Bills are seeking their first 3-0 start in eight years when they host the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Buffalo started the campaign with road wins over the New York Jets and New York Giants, and optimism is blooming as the Bills begin a stretch of hosting five of six games in Western New York. “Well, we understand the energy of the stadium is going to be really high on Sunday,” Bills quarterback Josh Allen told reporters. “We have to be able to kind of weather that and understand and play within ourselves. Coach (Sean McDermott) told us it’s not where we play, it’s how we play. We’re going

to take that to heart.” The Bills will be meeting a desperate team in the Bengals (0-2), who played well in a 21-20 season-opening loss to the Seattle Seahawks before being trampled 41-17 at home by the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2. Cincinnati gave up an astounding 571 yards – fifth most in franchise history – including 259 on the ground. The shaky effort was reminiscent of the team’s defensive issues last season, when the unit gave up more than 500 yards in three straight games during one stretch. The Bengals are 25th in total defense (402.0 yards) through two weeks. “This is an isolated

incident,” Bengals defensive end Carlos Dunlap told reporters. “This is not a snowball effect. ... There’s no whiff of last year. We know who we are this year. We worked too hard to change this culture and create a new identity for ourselves.” First-year coach Zac Taylor is charged with the task of reshaping the squad, and the passing attack has been solid through two games. Quarterback Andy Dalton ranks second in the NFL with 729 yards, and emerging wideout John Ross has a league-best 270 receiving yards. Chad Johnson (304 in 2007) is the only Cincinnati player who had more receiving yards than Ross over the

first two contests of a season. But the rushing attack ranks last in the NFL at 29.5 yards per game. Joe Mixon, who led the AFC with 1,168 rushing yards last season, has just 27 on 17 carries this season. “I’ve been playing terrible,” Mixon said. “Me personally, that’s not what I do. I’m always on tip-top, A-game performance. These past two weeks, it hasn’t been that. But like I said, I’ll get back to doing the things that I do best, and that’s running that rock. I’m going to get it popping real soon.” Buffalo ranks 10th in defending the run at 98.5 yards per game, and also ranks 10th in total defense (296.5).

That workman-like effort is providing Allen and the Bills’ offense with enough room to operate successfully. Buffalo ranks ninth in total offense (379.0), and Allen has passed for 507 yards and two touchdowns against two interceptions. Rookie Devin Singletary is the leading rusher with 127 yards on 10 carries, but he strained a hamstring late in last Sunday’s win over the Giants. His status will be firmed up later in the week. Veteran Frank Gore will be looking to get untracked after gaining just 88 yards on 30 carries (2.9 average) through two games. His longest gain is 9 yards. McDermott sees more

than the numbers when he analyzes his team. And he wants the focus to be on one game at a time and worrying only about those 60 minutes. “Honestly, we just do what we do,” McDermott said. “We’ve been doing this for a while, and our team is going to continue to grow. I mean it’s early in the season, only two games in, so the important piece for us is to continue to focus on our process, our fundamentals, our mindset, our focus and we continue to grow as a football team.” Cincinnati has won four of the past five meetings, including each of the past two contests at Buffalo.

“We have gotten better each week and this week is no different, we will be ready to defend the cup,” Hatch said. Hatch said his team didn’t need to be reminded what’s riding on tonight’s clash. “This will be a tough game with all the pride that comes with this rivalry,” Hatch said. “Doesn’t matter what both teams have done or faced in our first two match ups, with the Greene County cup on the line, it will be a battle till the end. “As I like to say, “The hay is in the barn, tweaks have been made and it’s now in the players hands.

Tonight, the Panthers will be up against a Lake George/Hadley-Luzerene squad that struggled out of the gate. The Warriors lost to Granville (196) in the season opener and fell to defending Section II Class C champ Cambridge/Salem (45-19) in week 2. Quarterback Cole Clarke has been LG/HL’s top threat on offense, completing 11 of 20 passes for 112 yards and two touchdowns, while rushing for 48 yards in the loss to Cambridge/ Salem. He also scored the Warriors’ lone touchdown in the week 1 loss to Granville on a one-yard run. Chatham has been equallty as ipressive on defense as it has been on offense.

Manning From B1

Jones. Manning accepted his fate with the kind of professionalism and maturity that have been hallmarks of his career as much as any of his passes. And he also offered his inimitable sense of perspective. Someone asked the quarterback at his locker, “Is this the end of Eli Manning, or is this another phase?” To which Manning replied, “I’m not dying, and the season’s not over. There’s a lot to be positive about, a lot to be grateful for.

I just have to accept my new role and make the best of it.” Manning is understandably disappointed, and probably more than a little angry at the decision, although he didn’t publicly express any outward resentment. But he handled it as diplomatically and as deftly as the great teammate he has been all these years. “I didn’t know how everything was going to shake out this year,” he said. “You just know when you draft a young quarterback, there’s a possibility (of not playing) if things don’t go well. We didn’t start fast, and that’s the situation we’re in now.” Manning made it clear he

will not be a distraction for the newly anointed Jones, the No. 6 overall pick in this year’s draft. And he will do everything possible to help the young quarterback. “I’ve been trying to help him every which way I could throughout the preseason and training camp,” Manning said. “Now, (I will) still do that and support him, answer his questions, if he has any. Don’t get him thinking too much. Just give him the information I’ve learned over 15 years that I think he can use.” He wants Giants fans to embrace Jones. “Be great fans and support the team and whoever is in there,” he said. “Daniel will

do a great job. He’s worked hard and handled the situation well.” It is certainly an awkward situation for Manning, although he did get some sense of what this might be like when Ben McAdoo sat him in favor of Geno Smith late in the 2017 season. But that benching lasted only a week; this one’s permanent, unless something happens to Jones. “I’m just taking this day by day, so just trying to figure out how to run the scout team, now that’s my No. 1 objective of today,” he said. “I thought I did pretty well.” And what about Manning’s future? “I’ll get into futures later

on,” he said. “Right now, my future is I’m the secondstring quarterback for the Giants and I’ve got to get myself ready to play and do whatever I’m called upon to help out the rest of my teammates.” My sense on Manning’s future: Barring a change of heart, he’ll remain with the team through the end of the season and retire. That may change if it becomes clear another team is interested in him and he waives his notrade clause. But I know that it’s important to Manning that he finishes his career with the same team he started. In the meantime, he’ll deal with his situation with the

kind of attitude and perspective that have made him such a beloved figure within the organization. “Everybody has different stages to it, and I think you handle all of them the same way you handle wins, losses,” he said. “The only thing you can control is your attitude and your decisions you make and the mindset you have going into it.” It is a mindset that has benefited the Giants for so many years. The wins are not there, and at 38, he’s not the same quarterback he once was. But he’s still the consummate professional, even in this, the final stage of his athletic life.

New York Yankees left fielder Giancarlo Stanton (27) doubles against the Los Angeles Angels during Wednesday’s game at Yankee Stadium.

Yankees From B1

Yankees acquired him and the remainder of his 13-year, $325 million contract after he hit 59 homers during his National League MVP campaign with the Miami Marlins in 2017. Last season, Stanton hit .266 with 38 home runs, 100 RBIs and an .852 on-baseplus-slugging-percentage — productive but well off his otherworldly previous season. Most of all, Stanton played in 158 games despite nursing a bothersome

hamstring in the second half. This season has been much different. While Stanton returned, Wednesday’s game was the last regular-season home start of CC Sabathia’s career. He is retiring after this season, his 19th in the majors, 11 of which were spent with the Yankees. Sabathia allowed two runs over 2 2/3 innings and received a standing ovation when he exited the game. He tipped his cap to his family and fans in the stands, and one by one on the field, his teammates hugged him. “That’s what I’ll miss more, the relationships with these guys,” Sabathia said.

Taconic Hills (1-0) at Voorheesville (0-1), 1 p.m. Taconic Hills has a tough assignment coming off a bye week in Joe Sapienza’s Voorheesville Blackbirds. After falling to Stillwater, 350, in their opener, the Blackbirds bounced back in a big way in week 2, rolling to a 42-13 conquest of Ichabod Crane. Quarterback Gavin Esposito had a big game against the Riders, accumulating 303 yards of offense by himself, rushing for 163 and passing for 140. Alex Sapienza was Esposito’s favorite target, snagging three receptions for 91 yards and two touchdowns. He also had a pick-6 that covered 43 yards. The Titans fought back from an early 8-0 deficit against CoxsackieAthens to win its first season opener since 2016. Aidan Flaum and Markus Rosien stood out on offense for the Titans, rushing for 78 and 68 yards, respectively. Rosien also completed 5 of 10 passes for 107 yards and a TD. The Titans shut out C-A in the second half of the opener, with junior Ed Smith leading the way with six tackles, a sack and a fumble recovery. Zach Colwell and Charlie Beck each picked off a pass, Shane Krause had a sack and Josh Hemmings recovered a fumble.

“Ryan Cartersome little eighth-grade player, got his first varsity goal today,” Statham said, “Ian Alexander, a senior, poked in another goal; showing a lot of effort. Our defense played well, especially our center backs, Paul Jean and Danny Liebowitz.” Cairo-Durham had six shots in the game and three corner kicks. Diego Rivera scored the lone goal in the seventh minute of the second half. Robert Lampman was the keeper for C-D and had 8 saves on the game. Overall, Catskill is now 5-2 and hosts Hudson on Saturday at 4:15 p.m. Cairo-Durham’s next game will be at home against Taconic Hills today at 4:15 p.m. Hudson 2, Coxsackie-Athens 1 (OT) COXSACKIE — Hudson traveled to Coxsackie-Athens for a Patroon Conference boys soccer game under the lights.

Angry outbursts spoil enjoyment of debates Dear Abby, I frequently socialize with friends who like to participate in debates. We share different opinions on topics such as politics, geopolitical events, etc. Sometimes we agree; sometimes we DEAR ABBY don’t. The problem is “Bob.” When others don’t see things the way he does, he throws a fit. Once, it got so bad that one of my friends got up and left. Another time, while I was expressing my political view to the group, Bob made faces, rolled his eyes and attacked me with ridicule. I got very annoyed. Bob DEMANDS that we listen to what HE has to say, but refuses to listen to others. He’s fine as long as you agree with him. But in this current climate, I’m expecting more eruptions. Abby, what do I do when the next fit erupts? Caught In The Storm

JEANNE PHILLIPS

The next time a “fit” erupts, call Bob on it and point out that what he’s doing is disrespectful. If he doesn’t stop, do as your other friend did. Get up and leave. Perhaps when Bob finds himself surrounded by an ever-shrinking audience, he will stop his overbearing performance. Dear Abby, We recently moved into a condo community of about a hundred units. A few weeks ago, a sign was anonymously posted on a car parked in a neighbor’s driveway complaining about the “smell” and “mess” in the car. I removed the sign only to find it replaced the next day. This has happened several times since.

I know nothing about this resident except that his car has not moved from the spot in the driveway. I am appalled by someone’s attempt to shame our neighbor. I plan to bring it up at our next association meeting, but is there anything else I can do? Disappointed In The East There could be reasons why the car in the driveway wasn’t moved — among them illness or an absent homeowner. By all means discuss this at the next homeowners’ meeting. And when you bring up the subject, suggest to the board that security cameras be installed. Dear Abby, When my husband and I go out in public, he doesn’t introduce me to people. I have told him more than once how it makes me feel. He introduces his sister or our children if they are close by. Because of this, I shrink away or speak very little when he talks to others. I don’t want to break our family up, but I feel like “nothing” around him. My husband seems happy with me at home. We don’t go out to dinner, but we do have some good friends. I’m not a trophy wife, but I think I’m a good catch. What can I do? Wife Of Superficial Husband

DR. KEITH ROACH

Before I comment on your husband’s situation, let me make a few of the terms clear. An intracranial hemorrhage is a bleed inside the brain. The resultant pressure inside the head can cause permanent damage to nearby brain structures: a hemorrhagic stroke. Risk factors for a hemorrhagic stroke include anticoagulants — aspirin has a very small risk, but other agents, especially warfarin (Coumadin) and to a lesser extent, newer agents such as dabigatran (Pradaxa), have a more significant risk. Your husband’s case is a situation that requires clinical judgment and more knowledge than I possess to give the most informed answer. However, for most people, the risk of an ischemic stroke and of a heart attack is significantly higher

What you can do when your husband “forgets” to introduce you is smile, speak up and say, “Hi, I’m ‘Janie,’ his wife.” And when you are in private, remind him that his failure to introduce you is rude, and you find it insulting.

Balancing the risks of heart disease and stroke Your recent article on statins/strokes piqued my interest since you mentioned that statins might cause hemorrhagic strokes. My husband had a hemorrhagic stroke in 2014, cause unknown. The stroke caused aphasia and seiTO YOUR zures. He was prescribed CreGOOD HEALTH stor 10 mg and then increased it to 20 mg. His calcium score is very high. He also had an ischemic stroke in February 2019 and was prescribed aspirin and 40 mg of atorvastatin. I am more concerned now as to whether he should be taking statins. His LDL is 63 and HDL is 47. Your comments on this would be appreciated.

than the risk of hemorrhagic stroke. Further, the benefit in statins helping with heart attack and ischemic stroke is well-studied and moderate in magnitude. By contrast, the increase in hemorrhagic stroke risk, if any, is likely to be small. The balance of risks would be in favor of treating. His high calcium score indicates a higher risk for heart attack, making a statin more important for him. If he had a risk factor for his previous hemorrhagic stroke that can be modified, then I would be more confident of the net benefit of a statin.

What is the safest and most effective way to clean wax from ears? I have worn hearing aids for roughly 40 years, but with a new set of hightech hearing aids, ear wax has become a problem. How can I best remove it without using a sharp tool to dig it out? The old advice to never put anything smaller than your elbow in your ear is a good one for most people. Anything sharp is very dangerous. For someone with recurrent ear wax, especially with a hearing aid, one approach is to use a cotton ball dipped in mineral oil and place in the external ear canal for 10-20 minutes once a week. This can be followed by a gentle rinse with warm water using a rubber bulb syringe. The cotton ball treatment can be used to prevent symptoms as well as to treat mild cases.

Horoscope By Stella Wilder Born today, you are one of life’s great personalities, the sort that others want to imitate if not be, and the kind who can inspire others to do their best in all manner of ordinary and extraordinary situations. While some may shy away from the spotlight, you seek it out; while some may avoid positions of authority, you prefer them; and while some may wish to go under the radar throughout their lives, you prefer to be out in the open and under scrutiny, for it inspires you to do your best in situations both ordinary and extraordinary. You are quite adventurous, and you’re likely to be exposed to more than your share of danger as a result — but you are also quite lucky and should be able to avoid any serious pitfalls as you make your way from one challenge to the next.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Quality and quantity may be one and the same today — at least for a while, when you are dealing with a problem of perspective and proportion. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You may be critical of someone else’s performance today, and you can learn much from what you think did and didn’t work. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — You cannot expect something to be exactly like something else when, in fact, they were meant to be very different! Calibrate your point of view. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You want something tangible in return for what you’ve offered a friend or loved one — but he or she may not agree on its overall value. Discuss! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You can make progress today, but you’ll want to be sure that where you’re going is really where you want to end up. Honest reflection is key.
