Drug charges dropped against former teacher By Ted Remsnyder Columbia-Greene Media

COXSACKIE — Drug charges have been dropped against a former Cairo-Durham Central School District kindergarten teacher, Greene County District Attorney Joseph Stanzione confirmed Wednesday. Melissa Saccoccie, 40, was

arrested in May of 2021 and charged with seventh-degree criminal possession of controlled substances and driving while ability impaired by drugs. Stanzione said Wednesday that just because charges have been dropped against Saccoccie, that doesn’t necessarily mean the case is closed.

Further charges could still be brought against the Coxsackie woman, Stanzione said. “We’re looking at everything and evaluating the case that we have,” Stanzione said. “That is a possibility.” Stanzione said his office is See CHARGES A2

Catskill town weighs rental, solar zoning changes By Ted Remsnyder Columbia-Greene Media

CATSKILL — The town of Catskill has submitted a host of proposed zoning law changes to the Greene County Planning Board that could create regulations in the town for short-term rental properties. With the influx of visitors to Greene County in the wake of a pandemic that put a premium on pastoral getaways, the town saw an increased number of properties being converted into Airbnb rental units. The Catskill Town Board worked with the

municipality’s planning board to craft the town’s first zoning laws for short-term rental units out of safety concerns that first responders could arrive at the scene of a fire or incident at a rental site and not be aware of how many people were staying at a given property. “I think it’s past due,” Catskill Town Supervisor Dale Finch said. “It’s something that in my estimation should have been done sooner than this. We have a large amount of short-term rentals within the town of Catskill. It’s really about the safety for the residents and the individuals

coming in and renting these short-term rentals. We’ve got to provide a safe spot for people. When people come and visit our area, they should be provided a safe place to live.” Under the draft of the zoning laws sent to the county, Catskill would require applicants to obtain a short-term rental permit prior to using the unit as a short-term rental. Under the proposal, the shortterm rental would be inspected by a town code enforcement officer for compliance with town and state codes. Under the current draft, See SOLAR A2

Mac is a one-and-a-halfyear-old Labrador retriever. The school district recently posted photos of Mac and Espel visiting with school children in their classroom. Mac and Espel recently completed a week-long training session at the Law Enforcement and Multi-discipline Crimes Against Children Therapy Dog Course at the Paws and Stripes College in Florida. The Paws and Stripes program originated in 2006 as a basic dog obedience program to help save the lives of canines in the Brevard County Animal Shelter. Carefully selected and trained jail inmates were paired with shelter dogs. The inmates train the dogs in both voice commands and hand signals. The program evolved over the years and today partners

“As always, the district is committed to cooperating with law enforcement and will be conducting its own investigation to determine if the faculty member’s conduct was school-related.” The former teacher was charged in connection with an investigation by state police and the Greene County District Attorney’s Office that included the arrest of five other people, including three from Greene County.

awaiting a determination of what substance was allegedly in the former teacher’s system at the time of her arrest last year. Saccoccie was employed by the Cairo-Durham Central School District as a kindergarten teacher at the time of her

arrest last year. Stanzione said at that time state police took Saccoccie into custody while on her lunch break at school. The Cairo-Durham Central School District released a statement at the time explaining that a staff member was arrested by state police in connection with an incident that took place off school property. “We do not believe that student or staff safety was jeopardized by this faculty member,” according to the statement.

heat wave a run for its money,” said Peter Neff, assistant research professor in glaciology at the University of Minnesota. “I don’t think the penguins minded too much about a little heat like this,” he said, but if such a jump occurred in places where people live, “that would have been super dangerous.” Jonathan Wille, an Antarctic meteorologist and climatologist at Grenoble Alpes University, also likened the enormity of the heat wave to the June 2021 event in that it “was completely unprecedented and redefined what we thought was possible from the climate system,” he said. He said he agreed with the Rohde’s analysis. The heat rode in on an atmospheric river, a jet of wet, warm air that glides through the sky between high and low pressure systems. The phenomenon dropped an enormous amount of snow, which can help protect the area against future heat waves.

requirements of the shortterm rental permit and all regulations within 30 days of the sale. The town used elements from the Village of Catskill’s own short-term zoning regulations while crafting its own law. “The village had something similar, but we made a lot of changes from what the village had in theirs,” Finch said on Wednesday. “We’re in the same municipality so we did mirror some of the items that were in the village short-term rental zoning and also some other communities from throughout the county and surrounding areas.” The town has also submitted amendments to its solar energy systems zoning regulation to the county, focusing on decommissioning large-scale solar installations. “First and foremost, now we’re definitely going to have decommissioning and surety bonds issued,” Finch said. “So that way when it’s time to decommission solar arrays that we have the money to do that. So then the burden is not put on the property owner. That was a big change, making it mandatory to surety for

decommission.” The town is also proposing zoning changes for signage in the town, with no new billboards permitted in Moderate Density Residential, High Density Residential and Conservation zones in the proposed amendments. “Some people feel that they’re outdated and not necessary,” Finch said of the billboards. “We’ve had them on our highway commercial areas. We’re going to restrict them in some areas and in some areas they’re going to be permissible. Currently billboards would be able to be erected anywhere. So we’re kind of narrowing that down a little bit to only certain zones.” The package of proposed zoning changes was sent to the Greene County Planning Board, which will review and consider approving the amendments. Then the proposed changes will be put up for a public hearing by the town board before ultimately going to the state for final approval. If approved by the state, the zoning changes would become law 45 days after approval. Finch said the timeline was not definite as to when the

Cassandra Garza of Catskill was charged with third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, Timothy Reese of Earlton was charged with third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and Cheryl Medert of Earlton was charged with third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance as a result of the investigation. with Mac. The long days were worth it on graduation day. I am so thankful for this opportunity and cannot wait to see the positive impact Mac has in Greene County,” Espel said. The program is geared toward citizens who would benefit from the companionship of a K-9 friend. The Comfort Dog Program helps children reduce anxiety and anger, increase communication, produce social interactions, be a positive mood stabilizer, teach responsibility and stimulate cognitive response. Mac spends his nights and off-time living with Espel, Quinn said. Espel is in his fourth year at Cairo-Durham Elementary School. There may be other duties for the therapy dog in the future, but nothing has been arranged as yet, Quinn said. Greene County Sheriff’s Office has three other K-9 deputies. One German shepherd and two Belgian malinois, Quinn said.

A heat wave in Antarctica earlier this month was so extreme that it may be the largest temperature increase above normal ever recorded, according to Robert Rohde, lead scientist at the nonprofit Berkeley Earth, who analyzed global records. The temperature at Concordia research station, a European outpost in East Antarctica, measured almost 70° Fahrenheit (38.5° Celsius) hotter than normal on March 18, reaching a high of 11°F. (As warm as that is for the region, it’s still below freezing.) Though this isn’t a category weather services track, Rohde said it may be the biggest margin ever. Temperature record-keeping on Antarctica by satellite goes back only to the early 1980s-not a huge amount of time, with sparse data, compared with warmer and more populous regions to the north. This short record, combined with strong

natural variability normal for the area, makes it premature to characterize the role global warming may have played in the event. “It’s difficult to say anything other than I’d be surprised if there wasn’t a climate change signal,” said Friederike Otto, senior lecturer in climate science at Imperial College London, and head of World Weather Attribution, which scrutinizes extreme events for human influence. “But I also don’t expect it to be as clear-cut and overwhelming as in the Canada case last year.” In June, an unprecedented heat wave over the western temperate U.S.-Canada border pushed temperatures into the triple digits and held them there for days. Lytton, British Columbia, broke Canada’s 84-year-old heat record three days in a row, before it was consumed by wildfire. The heat wave in Antarctica was at least as competitive in shock value. “It gives the June 2021 Pacific Northwest

a short-term rental permit would be valid for one calendar year and would expire on Dec. 31 of the year it is in effect. The permit would have to be renewed upon expiration as long as the unit is to be continued to be used as a shortterm rental. Finch said revisions could be made to the current draft in regards to the yearly expiration date of the permits. “I believe there might be changes to that as far as every one ending on Dec. 31,” Finch said. “I believe we’re going to start looking at that on a quarterly basis, so everything’s not due at the same time. It’s subject to change with the public hearing after we get input from the general public and get their opinions.” Under the proposal, a shortterm rental permit would be transferable to a new owner, as long as the new owner registers with the town, updates the short-term rental permit application and agrees in writing to comply with the

On pandemic’s 2nd anniversary, officials face lingering questions By Natasha Vaughn-Holdridge Columbia-Greene Media

CATSKILL — After two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, several unanswered questions remain about the virus and how officials handled the public health emergency, Greene County Administrator Shaun Groden said Wednesday. “It’s difficult for us to determine what was right and what was wrong,” Groden said. “Was it right to go long-distance on schools when statistically not a lot of kids got sick? If you look at our deaths, the majority of the deaths were really seniors, and I question whether or not when the certificate of death lists COVID, but did they die because of COVID or did they die with COVID?” It will likely take a long time to dePHOTO FROM ARISTIDE ECONOMOPOULOS/NJ ADVANCE MEDIA -TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE termine what went right or what went wrong during the pandemic, Groden For just over two years New York has been dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. said. New York handled COVID differently than many other states did in how it managed nursing home residents and in its decision to stop allowing people to dine in at restaurants. “The return of those elders back in to nursing homes, that was a fiasco,” Groden said. “Putting a positive senior with comorbidities back into a confined area with similar patients? I don’t think was the right move. It’s difficult to go back and do an evaluation. I’m not a health expert and it’s difficult to understand. Some of the things were silly, taking a restaurant to 50%? Did that really change anything?” BRAD HORRIGAN/THE HARTFORD COURANT/TNS Groden wondered aloud if COVID Columbia and Greene County continue to see decreasing COVID-19 cases. will become another strain of the annual flu.

11,200 positive COVID-19 cases since the beginning of the pandemic and Greene County has had about 10,200 cases in that time, according to their public health departments. The Twin Counties saw the peak of its cases this January as the omicron variant swept through the state, with hundreds of cases reported each day between Columbia and Greene counties. Over the past two months, numbers of new cases have been slowing dramatically. The majority of days this month both Columbia and Greene counties have reported 20 or fewer cases each day. The numbers of cases is expected to drop lower as the weather gets warmer this summer and people are spending more time in outside spaces, Mabb said. Last summer the two counties saw low numbers of hospitalizations and low numbers of daily cases, with some days in the summer having no new cases to be reported from the health departments. “I don’t believe it ever is going to go away,” Mabb said. “There’s an expectation, this new B2A doesn’t appear to be virulent, we have four people in the hospital this morning and none of them are in intensive care.” The majority of the hospitalizations are older people with comorbidities, Mabb said. This is a trend that has been seen throughout much of the pandemic. “The prediction is, like any other virus, like the flu for instance, we are going to see a drop off as the weather warms but we will still see cases trickle in,” Mabb said. “People do get the flu in the summer months, nobody talks about it, but they do. I think it will pick back up in September when we get back to school, back to offices in October and whatever, but I don’t see the numbers getting big.” COVID is likely going to be something in the background for the foreseeable future, Mabb said. New variants and booster shots are likely going to continue. “From the beginning we were told that it mutates, that coronaviruses mutate,” Mabb said. “And from the beginning we were told that there’s something like 500 documented coronaviruses out there. It has been a part of the fabric of our life and it will continue to be.”

ATHENS — A man and a woman were injured in a onecar accident Tuesday afternoon in Athens. The Greene County Sheriff’s Office was unable to release any information about the crash on Wednesday because it

Close encounter of a troubling kind How could a man wearing a face-covering scarf, a cap pulled down over his eyes and a hood stretched over the cap wander around a public building on a workday and not be stopped by an employee or sternly asked to explain his presence to the police? That’s the question Ancram Town Supervisor Art Bassin and others at Ancram Town Hall should be asking after Bassin and a Bronx man calling himself a First Amendment auditor confronted each other after the man spoke to town employees and wandered around town hall free as a bird as he filmed his tour. A First Amendment audit is part of a social movement whose closest recent appearance was in Delaware County. An online search for the term focuses on hundreds of videos made at various town halls, police stations, libraries and other public spaces around the country. The concept of First Amendment audits is part of a growing movement where individuals film in public places to test the rights to film in public spaces. The visit to Ancram Town Hall took place March 17 by a man who, creatively enough, told employees he was conducting an audit. The man identified himself only as David, who posted a 28-minute

video of his audit on YouTube last week. David films himself entering town hall, speaking to town employees and officials in the building and asking for public information such as names and business cards, a copy of the town budget and an application for a Freedom of Information Law request. The video shows David walking around town hall, zooming in with his lens on maps, pamphlets, flyers and various other items posted on the walls. Transparency, after all, is something everyone wants, but striding through the corridors of a government building, identity concealed, asking mysterious questions and giving cryptic answers isn’t the way. Yes, David has the right to know what government is doing (his own or somebody else’s is a separate issue), but the people in Ancram Town Hall two weeks ago have some rights, too, and they could have exercised them. We live in a world mad with pandemic, runaway inflation and war. The object David carried into Ancram Town Hall could just as easily have been a weapon as a camera. David and the people in Ancram Town Hall would do well to remember that.

An open letter to Didi Barrett representing Assembly District 106 Dear Assemblymember Barrett, We are writing to you as constituents, friends, and allies. Governor Hochul’s recent budget address spoke of responding to the climate crisis and of remedying its disproportionate impact on the poor. Yet nearly three years after the passage of the landmark Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) which you voted for, the Governor and Legislature have not yet reached a consensus on how to pay for it, in spite of the state’s budget surplus. We imagine that, as a member of the Assembly’s Committee on Environmental Conservation and having taken such leadership on regenerative agriculture and environmental conservation, you too are dismayed by this failure. Given the realities of the climate emergency, it is now that we must fund investments in renewable energy, emissions reductions, climate resiliency, climate justice and green jobs. Now, not tomorrow. Although climate change is a global problem, solutions can only be practically addressed locally. We are proud that New York State is admirably offering leadership, the “L” in the CLCPA. But if any of us allow it to sit on a shelf we will sorely regret it. The risks are no longer theoretical to the majority of us. We are all experiencing the storms, the flooding, the economic and health devastation. And frankly, the terror and grief. We humbly ask you to do what is needed by taking the stand that New York put at least $15 billion in this year’s budget to build the necessary capacity and gear up for the implementation of the CLCPA and the Climate Action Council (CAC) Scoping Plan. We also ask you to cosponsor the Build Public Renewables Act (A1466a, S6453), to make real the goals of the

MY VIEW

MICHAEL

RICHARDSON CLCPA with an investment of fifteen billion dollars per year. Knowing that the Climate Action Council’s Integration Analysis has projected costs of around $10 billion per year through 2030 to achieve the mandated emissions reductions, we are proposing $15 billion in this initial year for the major investments needed to retool our energy and transportation systems. This is a small fraction of the state’s economy which will mainly fund in-state jobs for a just transition, whereas we currently send more than $30 billion out of state every year to purchase fossil fuels. What might this investment accomplish in Assembly District 106? As NYRenews points out, in Assembly District 106 and throughout the state, it will fund large-scale renewable infrastructure such as: solar arrays, grid stability, electric vehicle infrastructure, improvements to public housing, school infrastructure, and public transit. The funding will prioritize communities most impacted by pollution, climate change, and the transition to a fossilfree economy by investing in community-based organizations and creating local jobs. In addition, it will support direct grants for homeowners to make their buildings more energy efficient, transit vouchers to encourage the use of public transportation, and funds to reduce winter heating costs. This will enable local organizations to

expand their reach and impact, connecting the Climate Act’s decarbonization goals with additional benefits such as zero waste strategies and local food security projects. It will support essential education about the Climate Act and climate solutions, which is increasingly necessary as we are already seeing fossilfuel-funded disinformation in the media. Funds could also support the continued development and enactment of well-defined regional strategic plans and collaboration around climate action. Bold action often involves risk, but so does inaction. Those elected officials who take steps to fund the CLCPA and the CAC Scoping Plan, and to co-sponsor the BPRA, will show they have the courage to stand up to the interests that keep us on track to disaster. They will have the respect and gratitude of the same majority that supported the passage of the CLCPA. Let’s continue to work together to educate and build broad local support for these investments in climate, jobs and justice throughout Assembly District 106. Everyone will benefit and deserves to know how. We look forward to your support and urge you to publish a press release in favor of these urgent legislative priorities. There is so much we can all do to change our direction. At this highly critical junction, we urge our legislators to fund the implementation of this landmark legislation. In appreciation for all you’ve done and with hopes of your support, NY Renews coalition organizations and allies in the Upper Hudson Valley.

Easter Egg Hunt canceled this year By Abby and Gabby For Columbia-Greene Media

PRATTSVILLE — Our thoughts and prayers go out to Ukraine for their survival and peace. Stay strong. Thank you to all our medical professionals, first responders and essential workers. You are appreciated. It is with regret that there will be no Easter Egg Hunt this year sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary due to lack of availability of suitable indoor facilities. Weather too chancy for an outdoor event. Thanks to all who had stepped up to support and assist us in this. We even had to cancel the Easter Bunny’s visit. Sorry. Speedy recovery to Ed McLean, and it certainly looks like he is doing just that. He is making progress after his surgery on March 15 when Ed had left hip replacement. He was walking shortly after the operation and came home the next day having met all requirements to leave. He is doing just great and even saw him taking a walk on the Main Street of Prattsville. He was using a walker but am sure that will soon be set aside. Speedy recovery Ed. Your smile says it all. Sympathy to the family of Emil Banks of Lexington on his recent passing. In his

obituary it listed some of the organizations that he quietly contributed to. And cannot let it pass without saying that he made dozens of birdhouses and donated them to Post 1327 of Prattsville as fundraisers. It was so successful more were requested. Emil even included packets of birdseed with each birdhouse. His widow Lorraine also assisted with the veterans’ programs at the Stratton VAMC. After one of our windstorms, Emil arrived and removed one of the downed trees for some of his projects. Glad to have shared with him. Lorraine can take heart in knowing Emil was an asset to our communities. We extend our sympathy to Tony Marsh and his family on the death of his son Kevin. Kevin was much too young to have passed and had so much to give to his family and our area. Rest in Peace Kevin. No definite date has ben set for his services but it will be later in the spring. Love you Tony. Hooray! The “eat in” West Kill/Lexington Community Improvement Association Maple Brunch will 10 a.m.-2 p.m. April 10 at the Community Hall, Spruceton Road, West Kill. So happy to have this event back on the calendar. Food is out of this world both in quality and quantity.

The friendship and community spirit also abound. See you there. Cathy Martino and Dana Hommel shared their bounty of baked goods from Bread Alone. After a hiatus of two years, the parishioners of St. Philip Neri were thankful for the return of baked goods — three large shopping bags. Father Paul said before Mass that with the delicious odor of baked goods it was hard to concentrate on the service. Thanks Cathy and Dana for sharing. Diana and Arnold are looking forward to Easter food and fun with the Reverends Towns, Becky and Greg and their three children. Diana has the Easter Eggs and candy already bought. Nice to spend Easter time with family and friends. Johannes and Marianne Krauss were weekend visitors to Clifton Park for a meeting of the Road Racing Association. Nice to get out of town for a pleasurable event. Happy Birthday to Mary Barry and Kerrianne Aurigema Dibble on April 2. John Zacco is wished a Happy Birthday on April 4. Happy Birthday to Bobby Gurley Jr. on April 8. Please call with your news 518299-3219 or gurleyrv@gmail.com.

Celebrate spring and help save lives by giving blood or platelets ALBANY — It’s officially spring! As the weather warms up and the latest COVID-19 surge continues to slow, many people are looking forward to meeting up with family and friends. At the start of this new season, the American Red Cross encourages the community to play an important role in helping save lives by making blood or platelet donation part of their spring plans. The Red Cross is grateful to the hundreds of thousands of individuals who have rolled up a sleeve to give in early 2022. It’s important to remember donated blood has a limited shelf life, so supplies must be constantly replenished. In the days and weeks ahead, it’s critically important to maintain a readily available blood supply. Donors can make an appointment by downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood. org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). While getting back into the stands to watch the home team play this spring, donors

can join a team of their own — Team Red Cross! As a thankyou, all who come to give April 1 through April 18 will receive an exclusive Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last. The Red Cross is testing blood, platelet and plasma donations for COVID-19 antibodies. The test may indicate if the donor’s immune system has produced antibodies to this coronavirus after vaccination or past exposure, regardless of whether they developed symptoms. Plasma from routine blood, platelet and plasma donations that have high levels of COVID-19 antibodies may be used as convalescent plasma to meet potential future needs of COVID-19 patients with weakened immune systems. The Red Cross is not testing donors to diagnose infection, referred to as a diagnostic test. To protect the health and safety of Red Cross staff and donors, it is important that individuals who have been asked to quarantine or believe they may be ill with COVID-19

postpone donation until they are symptom free for 10 days and feeling well and healthy. At a time when health information has never been more important, the Red Cross is screening all blood, platelet and plasma donations from self-identified African American donors for the sickle cell trait. This additional screening will provide Black donors with an additional health insight and help the Red Cross identify compatible blood types more quickly to help patients with sickle cell disease. Blood transfusion is an essential treatment for those with sickle cell disease, and blood donations from individuals of the same race, ethnicity and blood type have a unique ability to help patients fighting sickle cell disease. Donors can expect to receive antibody testing results and sickle cell trait screening results, if applicable, within one to two weeks through the Red Cross Blood Donor App and the online donor portal at RedCrossBlood.org.

WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden received his second coronavirus booster shot Wednesday, the White House announced, one day after the Food and Drug Administration authorized a second booster shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines for older and immunocompromised adults. Biden, 79, received the shot shortly after he gave remarks Wednesday afternoon about the status of the country’s fight against the coronavirus. A member of the White House medical unit administered the shot, a Pfizer-BioNTech booster. “It didn’t hurt a bit,” Biden said afterward, as reporters shouted questions about the Russian invasion of Ukraine and immigration, among other topics. Biden’s fourth dose of the vaccine came as administration officials are lobbying Congress to approve additional funding for the country’s coronavirus response. Last week, Jeff Zients, the White House’s outgoing coronavirus response coordinator, warned of “severe” and “immediate” consequences if Congress did not approve additional funding. “The uninsured fund is winding down, fewer lifesaving monoclonal treatments are being sent to states, fewer treatments available for the immunocompromised, and we risk not having

Congress, please act.” More than 977,000 people have died of covid-19 in the United States since the pandemic began more than two years ago, and although many states and institutions have lifted their coronavirus restrictions, new cases in the country continue to hover around 30,000 per day.

Legendary “Die Hard” and “Pulp Fiction” actor Bruce Willis has ended his more than four-decade acting career after being diagnosed with a cognitive disorder, his family said. The 67-year-old actor’s blended family announced the news Wednesday morning in an Instagram post from his daughter Rumer Willis. “To Bruce’s amazing supporters, as a family we wanted to share that our beloved Bruce has been experiencing some health issues and has recently been diagnosed with aphasia, which is impacting his cognitive abilities,” Rumer Willis said in the post. “As a result of this and

It was also signed by his other children Scout, Tallulah, Mabel and Evelyn. “As Bruce always says, “Live it up” and together we plan to do just that.” According to the National Aphasia Association, the condition is an acquired communication disorder that impairs a person’s ability to process language, but does not affect intelligence.

PENGUIN REP THEATRE PRESENTS WORLD PREMIERE OF

‘FAR FROM THE HOME I LOVE,’ A REIMAGINING OF THE SONGS FROM ‘FIDDLER ON THE ROOF’ ROCKLAND COUNTY – Penguin Rep Theatre presents the world premiere of FAR FROM THE HOME I LOVE, a concert presentation of the iconic songs from FIDDLER ON THE ROOF as reimagined by bandleader extraordinaire Paul Shapiro with a unique multicultural take. The concert, which features four musicians, three singers, and lots of heart and soul, will be presented for eight performances only, April 2 through April 10. Joe Brancato, Penguin’s artistic director, was inspired to conceive of the piece after seeing a video of Mr. Shapiro performing one of Fiddler’s songs to an enthusiastic crowd in Krakow, Poland. “I thought why don’t we take the score and give it some universality,” says Brancato. “Maybe someone’s Anatevka is in South America or another part of the world which they are forced to leave.” Saxophonist, bandleader and composer Shapiro has recorded with Lou Reed, Jay-Z, Queen Latifah, Rufus Wainwright, David Byrne, Michael Jackson, and many others. He was a founding member of Brooklyn Funk Essentials, a charter member of The Microscopic Septet, and led his own band Foreign Legion throughout the 1980s performing at iconic clubs The Ritz, CBGB and the Mudd Club. He

Since 1997, we have proudly collaborated with the UAlbany Theatre Program to present the Burian Lecture Series, bringing a distinguished playwright or actor - sometimes both - to

Albany for a lecture and discussion. The tradition continues next Monday, April 4, when we present playwright and actor Donnetta Lavinia Grays for a staged reading of her playin-progress, “Kudzu Calling.” The reading of this new work will feature UAlbany students, onstage alongside professional actors, and include a conversation with the artists following the staged reading. Commissioned by Alabama Shakespeare Festival, “Kudzu Calling” seeks to “expand and complicate the Southern narrative for the American stage.” Grays, a native of South Carolina, describes it as “my love letter to the place that made me.” She has received the Whiting Award for Drama and the Helen Merrill Playwright Award, and her plays have been

produced at the Denver Center Theatre Company and Baltimore Center Stage. The off-Broadway debut of her solo show “Where We Stand” received Lortel Award and Drama League Award nominations. 7:30 p.m. Monday, April 4 Arena Theatre, UAlbany Performing Arts Center 1400 Washington Avenue, AlbanyFree and open to the public.

Stars heat things up in uneven romantic comedy By Raymond Pignone Columbia-Greene Media

The lovers in “Monday” are Mickey and Chloe. We get a sense that we have met them before. He is a DJ orchestrating raves in small Greek villages and making a meager living writing advertising jingles. He is played by Sebastian Stan, seen in “Pam & Tommy” and the Marvel series “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.” She is a lawyer in Greece representing wealthy corporate clients and eager to return home to Chicago. She is played by Denise Gough, on display in the movie “Juliet, Naked.” The film’s director, Argyris Papadimitropoulos, who wrote the script with Robert Hayes, circles back to the classic bittersweet romantic comedies of the 1950s and adds a healthy dose of modern character defects, as if he felt this genre has been half-explored and there is something new to be found if he digs deep enough. We meet Mickey and Chloe at a disco party where he is spinning Donna Summer’s “I Feel Love.” Chloe is dancing on the other side of the room when her eyes lock

with Mickey’s. Sparks fly. We next see them waking up on a beach, naked and entwined in each other’s arms. They are arrested and driven to a police station. Handcuffed, they introduce themselves in the back seat of the police car. The movie chronicles their evolving relationship, which swerves from good to bad to ugly and back again. Mickey is in his 30s and prefers to hang out with his buddies like a college frat boy instead of facing his responsibilities as an exhusband and father. Chloe

is trying to rebound from a suffocating and abusive relationship. She is tense and short-tempered and doesn’t seem right for the fun-loving Mickey, but she is sexually unleashed in his presence. The script punctuates the plot with a time-stretching device. Mickey and Chloe’s affair plays out only through the course of several weekends starting Friday and concluding Monday. Despite this novel technique, the movie runs along a well-worn track both in its fidelity to the pairing of

the adolescent overgrown boy (“Mickey is a baby,” his ex proclaims) and the thoughtful responsible woman, and in its stout conviction that opposites not only attract but are capable of steamy encounters. As in all movies where sex and love compete, however, “Monday” springs surprises. A drug-fueled, naked motorcycle ride leads to a weekend in jail for Chloe while Mickey proves he is not the hero she thinks he is. Shaggy-dog subplots plague the story. Major events, even an abortion, are glided over, while tiny sideshows — like a fracas between Chloe and her rotten ex-lover and an aptly named “Pointless Party” are given full play. Strangely, this imbalance heightens the already ripe chemistry between Stan and Gough, whose performances have a nicely amused intensity, and renders the movie more credible. The course of true love never did run smooth. “Monday” is available on DVD and various streaming services.

The dialogue is taken directly from the Bible, as Pasolini felt that “images could never reach the poetic heights of the text.” He reportedly chose Matthew’s Gospel over the others because he had decided that “John was too mystical, Mark too vulgar, and Luke too sentimental.” Considered a classic of world cinema and the neorealist genre, it won the Venice Film Festival Grand Jury Prize, and three Nastro d’Argento Awards including Best Director and was also nominated for three Academy Awards. In 2015, the Vatican City newspaper called it the best film on Christ ever made. Italian with English subtitles. 1964. 2h17m. Saturday, April 2 at 5:45 p.m., Sunday, April 3 at 5:45 p.m., Monday, April 4 at 5:15 p.m. n Michelangelo Antonioni’s, L’AVVENTURA [1960] — Michelangelo Antonioni invented a new film grammar with this masterwork. An iconic piece of challenging 1960s cinema and a gripping narrative on its own terms, L’avventura concerns the enigmatic disappearance of a young woman during a yachting trip off the coast of Sicily, and the search taken up by her disaffected lover (Gabriele Ferzetti), and best friend (Monica Vitti). Antonioni’s controversial international sensation is a gorgeously shot tale of modern ennui and spiritual isolation. Italian with English subtitles. 1960. 2h23m. Sunday, April 3 at 6:45 p.m. n Ida Lupino’s, THE HITCHHIKER (1953) — Beyond its obvious cultural significance as the only classic film noir directed by a woman (actress Ida Lupino), the film is perhaps better remembered as simply one of the most nightmarish motion pictures of the 1950’s. Inspired by the true-life murder spree of Billy Cook, The Hitch Hiker is the tension-laden saga of two men on a camping trip (Edmond O’Brien and Frank Lovejoy) who are held captive by a homicidal drifter (William Talman). He forces them, at gunpoint, to embark on a grim joyride across the Mexican desert. Renegade filmmaking at its finest, the film was independently produced, which allowed Lupino and ex-husband/producer Collier Young to work from a treatment by blacklisted writer Daniel Mainwaring, and tackle an incident that was too brutal for the major studios to even consider. 1953. 1h11m.

From portraits of his mother, who died when the painter was only 8 years old, to the female admirers who helped him on his road to success, Raphael, (1483- 1520), was able to portray an ideal of celestial beauty and to focus his gaze more on the psychology of his subjects’ features than on their physical form. 2021. 1h30m. Saturday, April 2 at 2 p.m., Sunday, April 3 at 2 p.m. n Jean Cocteau’s, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (1946) — Jean Cocteau’s sublime adaptation of Mme Leprince de Beaumont’s fairytale masterpiece.

Saturday, April 2 at 3:45 p.m. n Sergei Loznitsa’s, MAIDAN (2014) — Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa, Maidan chronicles the civil uprising that toppled the government of Ukrainian president Victor Yanukovich and has since developed into an

international crisis between Russia and the West. Filmed in stunning long takes, without commentary, Maidan is a record of a momentous historical event and an extraordinary study of the popular uprising as a social, cultural, and philosophical phenomenon. Ukrainian with English subtitles. 2014. 2h11m. Monday, April 4 at 5 p.m. n Orson Welles’s, TOUCH OF EVIL (1958) — Written and directed by Orson Welles, who also costarred. The crime drama is recognized as one of the final gems of the classic film noir period of the 1940s and 1950s. Set in a sleazy town along the U.S. Mexico border, Touch of Evil features a Mexican narcotics officer (Charlton Heston) whose honeymoon is interrupted by his sudden involvement in a murder case, further complicated by a crooked police captain (Orson Welles). Along the way, Heston’s new wife (Janet Leigh) is kidnapped and framed by hoodlums working for Welles’s cop. The movie is noted for its extended opening scene and for its strong supporting cast, with cameos by Marlene Dietrich, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Joseph Cotten, and Mercedes McCambridge. A memorable performance by Dennis Weaver as a mentally disturbed motel clerk was rumored to have been the inspiration for Norman Bates in Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. 1958. 1h51m Saturday, April 2 at 4:30 p.m., Sunday, April 3 at 4:30 p.m. n Marie Amiguet & Vincent Munier’s, THE VELVET QUEEN (2021) — In the heart of the Tibetan highlands, multi-awardwinning nature photographer Vincent Munier guides writer Sylvain Tesson on his quest to document the infamously elusive snow leopard. Munier introduces Tesson to the subtle art of waiting from a blind spot, tracking animals, and finding the patience to catch sight of the beasts.

Windham Rotary The Haines Falls Foundation sponsoring a Chamber of Commerce drive for Ukraine

By Dede Terns-Thorpe For Columbia-Greene Media

An article from a June 18, 1933 Brooklyn Daily Eagle noted how a group of Haines Falls residents, aware of a decline in visitors to the Mountain Top, got together and formed the Haines Falls Chamber of Commerce. (Tidbit — The New York state Chamber is the oldest Chamber of Commerce in America, formed in 1768.) In the spring of 1933, a group of Haines Falls residents first met to talk about the possibility of forming an organization to help improve business. The loss of business hurt local shop owners. It was like a domino effect; the Depression increased the negative impact now felt by Prohibition (1920-1933). Residents saw a decrease in visitors to Sunset Parks and Twilight’s large hotels; that loss filtered into the local community; fewer visitors, less revenue. President-elect, George Schutt, called the meeting to order. Sam Schwartz, the proprietor of the Fenmore Hotel (after W. I. Hallenbeck), was elected vic -president, Wilfred McGibbons of the Pine Tree Lodge as treasurer, and W. Whitney Smith as secretary. Board members chosen for the three-year terms were Henry J. Myer, Edward Haines, Herbert O’Hara, Sam Schwartz, and Charles B. Layman; and for the two-year term, local business owners W. I. Hallenbeck, Mrs. Gross, Mr. Ferraro, Abe R. Legg and Ralph Karamy. For the one-year term: Howard Matthews, Wilfred McGibbons, Alfred H. Legg, Fred Carnright and Mrs. T. J. Corr. Chairman George Schutt appointed Wilfred McGibbons to chair the publicity committee, with Herbert O’Hara and W.W. Smith on the subscription

committee. The group had invited Mr. John J. Sullivan, a director of the Coxsackie Board of Trade, to give a presentation, which he supplemented with numerous suggestions. The group thanked him for his advice and assistance. The secretary (W. Whitney Smith) wrote an un-dated, and un-signed welcome cover sheet on what appears to be the first brochure sent out by the new Chamber. It read, Dear Friend: “For the proper kind of vacation, at the right time, amid an ideal environment, may we suggest Haines Falls, a section of the Catskill Mountains which possesses everything to commend it.” It went on to say how accessible Haines Falls is from New York City and how charming its hotels and boarding houses were, with rates consistent with the present conditions. It noted the elevation of Haines Falls and how its mountains provided a perfect summer climate. “The serene quiet of this natural sanitorium, its wild, rugged slopes, high mountain crests,

and magnificent panoramas, including some of the grandest and most charming scenery of the Catskill Mountains. Its bounding trout streams and babbling brooks seem even more wonderful when we stop to realize what a short distance it is from New York City and the Metropolitan areas.” It told of the famous Kaaterskill Clove, the Grand Canyon of the Catskills, and its 2000-foot elevation. The Chamber letter reminded the readers of Washington Irving and the legend of Rip Van Winkle. It noted that Haines Falls, a scenic Wonderland, bids a friendly welcome and reminds readers they would like to serve them. Signed, “Yours very truly, HAINES FALLS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.” Secretary. Unfortunately, no date has been found as to when the Haines Falls Chamber dissolved. Documentation has been found showing Tannersville having a Chamber back in 1927, with Hunter forming a Civic Association soon after. Both remain operating today.

Will the cold and blustery wind ever leave? By Lula Anderson For Columbia-Greene Media

What a Blustery Day! Snow, freezing cold, wind chill factor of -10, is it March or January? At least the sun, when it appears through the snowflakes, is bright and makes one feel so much better. By next week, it should be warm and spring like again. The only consolation is that the snow we got is protecting the plants that have sent their green shoots up and, hopefully, they will reward us with a multitude of beautiful blossoms.

AS I REMEMBER IT The sermon on Sunday was about the son who left home and I had a memory or two about leaving home. In the 1940s we moved into the farmhouse. At that time there were two apartments. After a year or two, it was made into one and became a 14 room guesthouse. At one time, my sister and I were unhappy with my mother. She was a very bossy woman with a forked tongue. My sister and I had had enough, and decided to run away. We were only 13 or 14, so we didn’t plan on moving far, just away from “her.” We moved upstairs in the front of the farmhouse. As you came in the front door and up the stairs, there was a large landing with a day bed which we made into a living room.

There was a small room adjoining it which we made into a kitchen with a two burner hot plate and a small table with two chairs to eat at. The large front room had room for 3 double beds and many dressers, but no closets. We were happy to be so grown up UNTIL one day, my sister, Flo, made tuna casserole which, to me, was quite inedible and I said a bad word about her cooking. She said “I will make you eat those words.” She actually wrote what I said on a piece of paper and chased me around our little domain until she shoved it in my mouth and I was forced to chew and swallow those words. To this day, I cannot enjoy tuna casserole. So much for running away. Thought for Lent: Do you have Church lazyness?

NFL changes overtime format for postseason games only Mark Maske The Washington Post

PALM BEACH, Fla. — The NFL will have a new overtime format beginning this fall, but only for postseason games. Team owners voted at Tuesday’s annual league meeting to ratify a proposal to guarantee each team at least one overtime possession in postseason games that are tied after regulation. “I like that we’re trying to figure it out,” Seattle Seahawks Coach

Pete Carroll said earlier Tuesday. “I like that we’re continuing to progress to figure: Is there a better way to do this thing? I would like to see both teams have an equal shot . . .. And it doesn’t feel like that when you go right down the field and score . . .. I still think it should be as balanced as it can be.” Two overtime-related proposals had been discussed by owners, general managers, coaches, See NFL B3

Jets still hunting for a stud receiver, whether in draft or trade DJ Bien-Aime II New York Daily News

PALM BEACH, Fla. — Joe Douglas is still ready to pounce if the opportunity to add another receiver for Zach Wilson presents itself. The Jets GM attempted to pry All-Pro Tyreek Hill from Kansas City, coming inches short of securing the deal to bolster the weaponry around Wilson. Their divisional rivals in Miami snatched Hill away. That isn’t going to stop Douglas from trying. “We have the opportunity to keep adding to it,” Douglas said at the NFL owners’ meetings on Tuesday

morning. “If the opportunity is right, the price is right, we’re going to strike,” Hill isn’t the only proven receiver the Jets were interested in. The Jets expressed interest in the Falcons’ Calvin Ridley, but Ridley was suspended for an entire year because he was caught gambling. They discussed former Cowboy Amari Cooper and viewed him as a good player. But Cooper was eventually traded to the Browns. They would have pursued the Chargers’ Mike Williams, but the Chargers franchised See JETS B3

Fitzmaurice Earns MAAC Player of the Week Honors

LOCAL ROUNDUP: Columbia-Greene Media

LOUDONVILLE — For the second time this season, a member of the Siena softball team took home a MAAC weekly award, the conference office announced Tuesday afternoon. Senior Ava

Fitzmaurice, a Greenville High School graduate, took home MAAC Player of the Week honors following a big week at the plate to help the Saints to a 5-3 record during their Mid-Atlantic Spring Break trip.

Fitzmaurice led Siena with a .423 batting average over eight games last week, tallying 11 hits, eight runs, eight RBI’s, one double, two triples, and one home run. The two-way standout slugged .731, held an on-base

percentage of .414, and also pitched 24.1 innings, going 4-1 with 12 strikeouts in the circle. F i t z m a u r i c e c u r r e n tly leads the team among See PLAYER B3

Yankees’ Higashioka once modeled his swing after Josh Donaldson’s Kristie Ackert New York Daily News

TAMPA, Fla. — Back in 2015, Kyle Higashioka felt like his offense was going nowhere. The catcher looked at the big leagues to find someone who he could imitate to remodel his swing. The American League MVP that year was a slight infielder who showed incredible power, so Higashioka started taking part of Josh

Donaldson’s swing to incorporate into his own. Now, Donaldson is just four lockers down in the Yankees’ spring training clubhouse and Higashioka is taking advantage of it. “I realized I couldn’t do the huge leg lift and all that stuff, but the underlying principles were the same. So mechanically speaking, he kind of speaks the same

language as me,” the Yankees catcher said Tuesday after hitting his fourth home run in the last three games. “I will talk to him about the approach, it’s like where he really excels. . . There’s not many guys in the game that kind of think about the at-bats in the way that he does and about picking and choosing times to do damage and just everything. He’s just so smart mentally about that.

Mets leaning toward starting Starling Marte in right field on Opening Day Deesha Thosar New York Daily News

JUPITER, Fla. — All signs are pointing to Starling Marte being Michael Conforto’s successor in right field. Days after Marte impressed in right field, a position he has yet to play in a real big-league game, the Mets put him right back there for a night game against the Marlins on Tuesday. Marte has spent 10 seasons in MLB as a left fielder and center fielder, primarily playing the latter since 2018. When asked whether Marte will be the Mets’ starting right fielder on Opening Day, manager Buck Showalter gave the most definitive answer thus far on the subject. “Right field, that’s where we’re leaning,” said Showalter. “Fits the best.” That means the Mets’ Opening Day alignment is expected to be: Mark Canha in left, Brandon Nimmo in center, and Marte in right. Though the Amazin’s will begin the season with that arrangement does not mean they will stick to it the entire year. Showalter has emphasized all three outfielders’ versatility and the skipper is keen on using that flexibility to his advantage, depending on situations like matchups and potential injuries. Marte played in right for the first time on

New York Mets’ Starling Marte hits a double in the seventh inning of a spring training game at Clover Park on Sunday in Port St. Lucie, Florida.

Sunday afternoon against the Cardinals, with Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer on the

hill. That was also his Grapefruit League debut, which was just over a week behind his

teammates because Marte was dealing with left oblique soreness to begin camp. Marte made a couple of nice catches in right that he later described as “wasn’t easy” as the outfielder continues to get familiar with a new corner position. To the eye, Marte certainly made those catches look easy. On one play, the two-time Gold Glove award winner sprinted over 100 feet to get to the ball. Now, with exactly a week until the Mets break camp for the regular season, Marte is expected to get the majority of the rest of his spring training reps in right field. “Starling is starting to understand the angles of the ball coming off the bat out there,” Showalter said. “He’s going to get a look at it.” Even though Marte himself said he prefers on Opening Day to be in center field, a position where he has played 554 major-league games, the Mets like the idea of Marte as a right fielder for a couple of reasons. One, he undoubtedly has the strongest arm among Mets outfielders. A strong arm in right field will help cut down runners trying to advance an extra base on a single, or runners trying to score a run on a ball lost in the rightfield corner. Marte has 50 career assists as a left fielder, and he will get the opportunity to cut See METS B3

Reggie Bullock made five shots from beyond the arc and finished with 17 points for the Mavericks, who recorded their fourth home win in a row and their fourth victory in five games overall. The Lakers, who played without LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (foot), have lost three in a row. Malik Monk paced Los Angeles with 28 points, and Russell Westbrook added 25. Bucks 118, 76ers 116 Giannis Antetokounmpo had 40 points, 14 rebounds, six

The play was originally called goaltending, but the ruling was overturned after a video review. Khris Middleton added 22 points, nine rebounds and seven assists and Jrue Holiday contributed 18 points and 10 assists for the Bucks. James Harden led Philadelphia with 32 points and nine assists, while Embiid added 29 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists. Tobias Harris chipped in 22 points and 11 rebounds for the Sixers, who have dropped

two in a row. Bulls 107, Wizards 94 DeMar DeRozan scored 14 of his game-high 32 points in the fourth quarter and Nikola Vucevic had 27 points to lift visiting Chicago over Washington. Zach LaVine scored all of his 14 points in the second half for the Bulls. Chicago closed a fivegame road trip with a 2-3 record and earned its first season sweep of Washington since the 2010-11 season. Rui Hachimura scored 21 points and Kentavious CaldwellPope followed with 20 points to lead five Wizards in double figures.

Field Level Media

Valeri Nichushkin scored both goals on the power play to lead the Colorado Avalanche to a 2-1 road victory over the Calgary Flames in a clash between the Western Conference’s top teams on Tuesday. The Central Division-leading Avalanche are the first team this season to reach 100 points. Colorado is 12 points ahead of Calgary. Devon Toews collected two assists and goaltender Darcy Kuemper made 44 saves for the Avalanche, who found out in the morning they would be without star forward Nathan MacKinnon due to an upper-body injury sustained in the previous outing. The Avalanche are also missing a handful of other key players, including captain Gabriel Landeskog. Tyler Toffoli scored for the Pacific Division-leading Flames, who received a 28-save outing from Jacob Markstrom. Rangers 3, Penguins 2 Chris Kreider’s power-play goal early in the third period held up as the deciding marker for visiting New York in a win over Pittsburgh. The game was a rematch of Friday’s 5-1 Rangers win in New York, and the victory allowed the Rangers to leapfrog the Penguins into second place in the Metropolitan Division. Artemi Panarin added two assists for the Rangers, who have won three straight and five of six. Brian Boyle and Sidney Crosby scored for the Penguins, who are 1-2-1 in their past four. Pittsburgh goaltender Tristan Jarry stopped 23 shots. Islanders 4, Blue Jackets 3 Brock Nelson scored to begin a stretch of four unanswered goals by visiting New York, which hung on to edge Columbus. Josh Bailey, Anthony Beauvillier and Zach Parise also scored for the Islanders, who scored all their goals in a span of 17-plus minutes bridging the first two periods.

Semyon Varlamov made 42 saves as New York snapped a two-game losing streak. Vladislav Gavrikov scored twice and Oliver Bjorkstrand had a goal for the Blue Jackets, who have lost four straight (0-2-2). Elvis Merzlikins recorded 25 saves. Panthers 7, Canadiens 4 Jonathan Huberdeau scored the goahead goal in the third period as Florida beat Montreal in Sunrise, Fla. The Panthers earned their league-leading 27th home win of the season, tying the franchise record for home victories set in 2017-18. Huberdeau also scored short-handed earlier in the game, and he had his 70th assist, tying the NHL record for assists by a left winger. Ryan Lomberg produced his first career two-goal game and added an assist, and the Panthers got one goal and two assists from Sam Bennett, a goal and an assist from Aleksander Barkov and a goal from Mason Marchment. Montreal got a goal and an assist apiece from Chris Wideman and Laurent Dauphin, and Joel Edmundson and Christian Dvorak also scored. Jake Allen stopped 39 shots. Lightning 4, Hurricanes 3 (OT) Steven Stamkos scored Tampa Bay’s third power-play goal 52 seconds into overtime as the Lightning topped Carolina for their third straight win and improved to 20-6-4 at home. It was Stamkos’ 11th career overtime winner, the most in team history. Brayden Point recorded a power-play goal and an assist, tying Tyler Johnson for 10th place among the franchise’s all-time scoring leaders. Alex Killorn also netted a power-play goal, and Victor Hedman scored. Rookie Seth Jarvis scored and had an assist for Carolina, and Nino Niederreiter and Sebastian Aho also found the net. Stars 3, Ducks 2 Roope Hintz and Jacob Peterson scored third-period goals as visiting Dallas rallied

to defeat Anaheim and take over the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference. Radek Faksa also scored and Jake Oettinger made 26 saves as the Stars continued a playoff push with their fifth victory in the past seven games. Derek Grant had a goal and an assist and Troy Terry also scored for the Ducks, who saw their losing streak reach 10 games (0-82). John Gibson made 29 saves for Anaheim, which last won a game on March 6. Maple Leafs 6, Bruins 4 Visiting Toronto scored three goals in each of the first two periods on the way to a win over Boston. Toronto earned its second straight victory and snapped Boston’s four-game winning streak. Mitchell Marner, Auston Matthews and Morgan Rielly all had a goal and an assist. Rookie Erik Kallgren made 23 saves for Toronto after replacing Petr Mrazek in the first period. Mrazek, who made three saves on four shots, left with a groin injury. David Pastrnak (one goal, one assist) and Charlie McAvoy (two assists) had multiple points for the Bruins. Jake DeBrusk, Curtis Lazar and Taylor Hall also scored. Boston’s Jeremy Swayman lost for just the second time in 14 starts, allowing six goals on 25 shots over the first two periods. Wild 4, Flyers 1 Matt Dumba, Kirill Kaprizov, Jordan Greenway and Kevin Fiala scored one goal apiece as Minnesota cruised past Philadelphia in Saint Paul, Minn. Joel Eriksson Ek and Frederick Gaudreau each notched two assists for the Wild, who won their seventh game in a row.

tagged Williams then signed him to an extension. Overall, it’s obvious Jets understand the value in adding weapons around Wilson to supercharge his development in his second season. “Those premium positions, you hit the nail on the head, it’s those playmakers, too, so you see how that market is going now,” Douglas said. “Even with some guys on the horizon

centerfielder and has earned the opportunity to continue showing the Mets his skill in the middle of the diamond. Nimmo registered 5 Defensive Runs Saved last season, an improvement over his -1 DRS in 2019 and -2 DRS in 2020. Though Marte began

his major-league career in Pittsburgh as a left fielder, where he garnered a pair of Gold Glove awards, he’s been almost strictly a centerfielder since 2018. Even so, Nimmo’s defensive numbers last season were better than Marte’s, who registered a -1 DRS at center in

2021. “Everyone knows I can play centerfield,” Nimmo said last week. “I think last year proved that.” Nimmo is also younger (29) than Marte (33) and a little faster too. The former is in the 92nd percentile in sprint

speed, according to Baseball Savant, against Marte in the 83rd percentile in sprint speed. For Nimmo, the trend in his speed is also pointing up, while Marte has slightly diminished in that category as he’s gotten older the past few years.

For now, the Mets would prefer Marte’s learning curve in right field than potentially move Nimmo to left and play Canha in right. There is no real downside, as having Marte in the lineup and on the field improves the club no matter where he plays.

enacted. The Tennessee Titans had proposed requiring a team to get a two-point conversion as well as a touchdown to prevail on the opening possession of overtime. “I think the largest component in the discussion is searching to be traditional and not alter the structure of it in any way but at the same time make circumstances competitively fair for both teams,” Pittsburgh Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin said Monday. “And so that’s where the discussions are going to be. We’ve got a couple of proposals on the floor, and I’m sure we’re going to talk through

them in great detail.” Under the format that remains in effect for the regular season, a team can win a game with a touchdown on the opening possession of overtime. If a team gets a field goal on the opening possession, its opponent gets a possession with a chance to tie the score and prolong the game - with a field goal or win with a touchdown. Both proposals originally covered regular season and postseason games, but there was sentiment all along for making the change for postseason games only. The debate over the NFL’s overtime rules was renewed

when the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Buffalo Bills with a touchdown on the opening possession of overtime in a highly entertaining divisionalround playoff matchup. That game featured a memorable quarterback duel between the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes and the Bills’ Josh Allen, but Allen never left the sideline in overtime. The following weekend, the Chiefs lost the AFC championship game to the Cincinnati Bengals despite having the ball first in overtime. That bolstered the argument from some that no change to the format is needed - the team that doesn’t have the ball first

in overtime simply needs to play better defense. The Chiefs-Bills outcome was enough, as it turned out, to prompt a change just three years after the owners considered modifying overtime but opted against it. The owners have never seemed to favor a college-style format with teams alternating possessions from a certain yard line, considering that too gimmicky. But those in the sport also don’t want to see games essentially decided by an overtime coin flip determining the opening possession. Since 2010, when the current overtime format was

implemented for the postseason, seven of the 12 postseason overtime games have been won with an openingpossession touchdown, and 10 have been won by the team that won the overtime coin toss. The advantage has been less pronounced during the regular season. The current overtime rules were applied to regular season games beginning in 2012. Since then, the team that won the overtime coin toss has won exactly half of the games - 76 of 152. Both teams had at least one possession in overtime in 124 games, or 82 percent.

that could affect the market, too. That’s definitely a position that’s a premium position for us and where we are with a young quarterback.” Even though the Jets missed out on the available wide receivers on the market, they did add two capable tight ends in Tyler Conklin, an ex-Viking, and C.J. Uzomah, a former Bengal. They combined last season for 110 catches, 1,086 yards and eight touchdowns. Uzomah and Conklin can be viable pass catching weapons for Wilson. They’re comfortable with who’s in the current wide

receiver room. The organization still believes Elijah Moore has No. 1 receiver potential after finishing with 538 yards receiving and six total touchdowns in 11 games. Corey Davis is more than capable of being a good No. 2, with a few weeks of No. 1 production. “I feel good about the receivers we have. Having Elijah (Moore), who was really starting to come on before his injury,” Douglas said. “Corey Davis was on pace for 1,000 yards before his injury, bringing Braxton (Berrios) back and everyone’s excited to bring

Braxton back, so we feel good about this receiving corps we have.” But the Jets can’t stop there. One injury to the group and the unit could look similar to the receiving corps that the Jets trotted out in Week 18 against the Bills, when Keelan Cole, Tarik Black and Jeff Smith received the bulk of the snaps. The Jets are reportedly keeping their eyes on the Seahawks’ D.K. Metcalf, who’s in the last year of his deal. And after trading Russell Wilson to the Broncos, Metcalf could be pried with a good offer. Douglas wouldn’t entertain the rumors about the possibility of available receivers. But if the rumors become factual the Jets will be ready.

“You hear about names, you hear about rumors. Until those opportunities become a little bit more concrete, that’s what they are, just rumors. Look, again, we weren’t expecting the opportunity to pop up that happened last week, but when it came available, OK, we were ready,” Douglas said. “Again, in this situation, that may be another player, another position. I feel like our pro staff, our personnel staff, they do a great job of keeping everybody prepared, personnel and coaches, to get the evaluations in and so when those opportunities happen, we can jump right in and be aggressive.” If the Jets can’t snatch a potential veteran option off the table, the draft has plenty of wideouts. With the No. 10

overall pick, Ohio State’s Garrett Wilson, Arkansas’ Treylon Burks or USC’s Drake London could be options. Gang Green could wait till the second round where options like North Dakota State’s Christian Watson may be available, or Georgia’s George Picken. Or the Jets could take a risky big swing at Alabama’s Jameson Williams at No. 10. Williams who would have been the consensus No. 1 receiver in this draft class if he didn’t tear his ACL in the national championship game. Overall, with the trend of the offseason, it’s obvious the Jets will add another weapon or two for Wilson as he goes into year two.

Imprisoned man worries girlfriend is missing out Dear Abby, I am a 26-year-old man, and I’m currently incarcerated. My girlfriend, “Diana,” and I have been together for four years. She has a 6-year-old daughter, and I have a 7-year-old son. Our kids are very close, and I am DEAR ABBY also very close to her daughter. I may be locked up for some time. I have given Diana the option of moving on without me, but she says she doesn’t want to do that. She is going to stay with me no matter what. That’s great, but everyone around her is pregnant and having babies, and Diana tells me how much she wants another baby. Is it selfish of me to allow her to stick it out with me, knowing I can’t give her what she wants? Inside In California

JEANNE PHILLIPS

Diana is a grown woman and capable of making this decision for herself. Just because “everyone around her” is having babies doesn’t mean she has to. If she wants to wait for your release, she can have a child with you at that time, and this is what I am advising. Dear Abby, I need some help trying to save my marriage. I don’t talk a lot in a relationship or with other people. I am aware that communication is important in a relationship, but I never realized how important it was until my wife told me I don’t communicate enough and we started talking about divorce. We have a 4-year-old, who I think is the glue to our marriage. I would like our marriage to last, but I’m afraid ours is so far gone it can’t be fixed. Could you please help me try to save our marriage?

Hanging In There Out West Tell your wife you love her and are willing to work on your communication skills with her help, if she is willing. If her response is affirmative, the two of you should seek a referral to a licensed clinical social worker or a licensed marriage and family therapist to help you learn to communicate with each other more effectively. Dear Abby, I love trains. I can imitate a train whistle, and I like doing it. I learned how to do it about 10 years ago by listening to trains whistle for many years. I’m in my 30s now. I know there are places I shouldn’t do it. Some people I know like to hear me do it anywhere. Others say I should do it only outside. Still others say don’t do it at all. When I see and hear a train, I will sometimes automatically whistle. It’s not the best thing to do, I suppose, but it’s not the worst either. I don’t drink, smoke or do drugs, and I’m fairly healthy. What do you think of my imitating a train whistle? Have you ever heard of anyone doing this? Whistling In Wisconsin Congratulations. Your letter is a first. I have never heard of someone imitating a train whistle who was over the age of 8. I see no harm in doing it as long as it doesn’t annoy the people around you by startling them or putting their hearing at risk.

Horoscope

Zits

By Stella Wilder Born today, you are destined to be known as one who can “do it all,” and though this is not likely to be literally true, the fact is that when you are engaged in any sort of endeavor that you enjoy and for which you display natural aptitude, you are able to do virtually everything within the scope of that endeavor, and eventually prove yourself a true expert, the kind of person other people go to for instruction, guidance and inspiration. You are never so wrapped up in your own affairs that you are unaware of what is going on around you in the world, and there will surely be times in which you feel compelled to take up a banner and fight for some worthy cause or other. You are never afraid to say or do what must be said or done, and your work for philanthropic causes almost always pays off. Also born on this date are: Johann Sebastian Bach, composer; Ewan McGregor, actor; Christopher Walken, actor; Shirley Jones, actress and singer; Rhea Perlman, actress; Rene Descartes, philosopher; Joseph Haydn, composer. To see what is in store for you tomorrow, find your birthday and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide. FRIDAY, APRIL 1 ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Your ability to plan will come in very handy for you and others today. If you provide assistance, be sure to share only essential information. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You’ll receive encouragement from someone who has been in your corner all along. This may be the emotional boost you need! GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — An idea shared with you some time ago finally takes shape in

your mind today, and you’re ready to turn it into something very effective very soon. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Despite the feeling that you’ve already experienced much of what today is offering only recently, you can surely put a new “spin” on it all. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You can have a good deal of fun today, but if it’s at someone else’s expense, then it’s not likely to last very long. Don’t cross any boundaries. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — You may have the edge, but you can lose it quickly if you let your mind wander or your technique become lax. You must perform up to par today! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — A trip down memory lane provides more than enjoyment today. You’ll get back to business stronger and more capable than before, surely. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — You may have to put someone off for a while before you’re able to commit to a new plan. See if you can get more details by day’s end. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — It may be up to another to decide whether you’ve broken a promise. Whatever happens, you’ll be able to undo any damage. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — There is only one question to ask yourself today before you get started: Can you do it all? You know the answer — as do many others. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — You make a discovery of some kind today that sends a current project into overdrive. Very soon you’ll be working at peak capacity. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — You may be making trouble for someone today if you stick to your plan without making small adjustments. Consider all possible outcomes.

The bidding:

way to take 12 tricks? There are only 11 top tricks, but there are two chances for a twelfth. As a bridge problem, this seems to be a choice between leading a diamond toward the king or taking the club finesse. At the table, however, there are other factors. A player’s “table feel” might lead him in a certain direction. West had taken a long time to choose his opening lead. He finally led a heart, which had to be a safe lead from his hand. Had he been considering a more aggressive lead? South decided to postpone his decision as long as possible. South won the opening heart lead with dummy’s ace and cashed three more heart tricks. He then cashed six spade tricks, coming down to the singleton king of diamonds and the acequeen of clubs. West was obviously uncomfortable with his final discard. If West came down to a singleton ace of diamonds and two clubs, he could be thrown in with the ace and forced to lead a club. He discarded the jack of clubs instead and kept two diamonds. South read the position perfectly and led a club to his ace, dropping the now singleton king. Making six, thanks to good table feel!
