Officials were continuing their investigation on Thursday into the cause of the collapse on Wednesday morning of a structure housing the Jamesport Post Office and an empty business location under renovation. The structures are located along Broadway Street, just south of the intersection with Auberry Grove (known as the Four-Way Stop). The incident occurred around 9 a.m. and while no one was reported hurt, Jamesport Postal Clerk Robert Shields had been in the post office just prior to the collapse. Sue Olsen, owner of Sue’s Soft Stuff, which is located south of the empty building, had also been inside her business but was able to escape. Postal officials were in Jamesport on Wednesday afternoon and evening to assess the damage, with all businesses located in that block being closed and the area shut off to traffic. The Daviess County Emergency Management Agency is leading investigation into the incident with assistance by the Daviess County Sheriff’s Department.
GRUNDY COUNTY COMMISSION
Budget Amended
2020 County Tax Levy Gets Approval The Grundy County Commission set the 2020 tax levy during its meeting Tuesday morning, which also included approval of budget amendments. The levy was set at $.2165 on the $100 assessed valuation, an increase from $.2009 cents in 2019. The county’s tax rate ceiling is $.3965, but with the sales tax rollback, the levy was reduced to $.2165. Grundy County Clerk Betty Spickard said the county’s 2020 assessment is $130,067,962, which is down from $132,599,802 in 2019. The levy is estimated to generate $291,728.66 in property tax. According to information provided by Presiding Commissioner Phil Ray, several amendments were made to the FY2020 county budget, with all of the changes being necessary due to funding related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The amendments included $22,472 for the election services fund, $38,486 for the Grundy County Ambulance, with those funds
coming through Federal Relief payments to ambulance services, and $1,155,620 for CARES Act funding areceived by the county for disbursement. It was reported the bridge crew is spraying and removing brush at bridge sites around the county and will continue work on the Sand Hill Bridge, located near the junction of NE 110th Avenue and NE 10th Street, and the Berry Bridge, located on NE 82nd Street. Both sites are considered “large projects” by the Federal Emergency Manage-ment Agency with expenditures exceeding $125,000 per site. Ray said powered air purifying respirators have been ordered for ambulance personnel. The units will allow ambulance personnel to perform their job duties in particulate environments such as COVID-19. It was noted there have now been 30 positive COVID cases in Grundy County, with one case currently active. The state is reporting over 1,000 new
cases each day and it is expected that Missouri will surpass 7,000 cases this week. Ray said Haug Communications of St. Joseph has notified the FCC they have completed the buildout of the mobile radio extenders used in ambulances. In addition, planning is under way for emergency preparedness exercises. The exercises are held annually in order to test operations for local agencies as well as to maintain compliance with EMPG requirements. The deadlines for the exercises for FY20 have been extended until June 2021 due to the ongoing pandemic. The agenda for the Tuesday, Aug. 25 meeting includes a road and bridge report at 8:30 a.m., with the emergency management report scheduled for 9 a.m. The ambulance report is set for 10 a.m., followed by a report from the Grundy County Health Department at 11 a.m.

SPORTS KANSAS CITY CHIEFS’ TRAINING CAMP
Breeland Facing Four-Game Suspension To Start Season Cornerback Was Arrested On Charges In April KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Chiefs will be without starting cornerback Bashaud Breeland for the first four games of the season because of off-the-field issues earlier this year, a source told The Associated Press on Wednesday. The person confirmed the league intends to suspend Breeland on the condition of anonymity because the announcement had not been made. The news, which was first reported by ESPN.com, has long been assumed after Breeland was arrested in April on multiple charges that included resisting arrest, marijuana possession and driving without a license. The suspension leaves the Chiefs with even more depth concerns at cornerback, where they lost Kendall Fuller in free agency and elected not to resign veteran Morris Claiborne. They still have their other starter, Charvarius Ward, but
the depth behind him includes Rashad Fenton, special teams ace Antonio Hamilton and a couple of rookies. “As far as the young corners, we'll see. Time will tell,� Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Wednesday, after the team resumed training camp following a day off. “We've got a good nucleus of guys and it'll all sort out here the next couple of weeks.� The Chiefs did get some positive news in the defensive backfield with the return of one of the rookies, Bopete Keyes, who was out with a broken orbital bone. They also got free safety Juan Thornhill onto the field to do some work for the first time since he tore his ACL late last season. Reid said that Thornhill, who was emerging as a legitimate star, and running mate Tyrann Mathieu give the Chiefs plenty of help in coverage — even though neither is necessarily a cornerback. That experience is vital now more than ever. The Chiefs could be forced to use Keyes and fellow rookie L'Jarius Sneed in the opener Sept. 10 against Houston, even though neither will have played an NFL game.
Underappreciated Players Find Spot Charlton, Kpassagnon And Speaks Will Back Up Stars On The Line KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Taco Charlton has been declared a bust by two different teams. Tanoh Kpassagnon was considered the same for a while as he moved between linebacker and defensive end. Breeland Speaks is still trying to live up to expectations as a second-round pick after injuries scrapped his second season in the league. Yet those three could provide the depth that turns the Kansas City Chiefs defensive line into one of the best in the NFL. Of course, it helps that Pro Bowl defensive tackle Chris Jones has just signed a long-term deal to remain the anchor of their four-man front. It also helps that Derrick Nnadi flourished alongside him last season and that fearsome defensive end Frank Clark made good on the promise that he showed before the Seahawks traded him to Kansas City. There is work still to be done during
training camp. But the pieces are there for a much better bunch than a year ago. “We've got a lot of ways to go,� Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo said, “but it's nice to have so many options. Any time you can get a lot of competition at one spot, that's good for us. You get to pick the best players. We'll see how it all shakes out. TK was key for us last year. We didn't have Breeland but he's back. Taco is new. Just keep them in the mix.� Keep them healthy, too. Jones has been sitting out the first padded practices of training camp with a groin injury. Nnadi is slowly getting up to speed after offseason surgery on his ankle. Defensive end Alex Okafor was starting to blossom in the first year of his three-year deal before a torn pectoral muscle sidelined him during the Super Bowl run. All of those guys in the mix have showed promise at some point in their careers. Even if they haven't lived up to it. Charlton was a first-round pick of the Dallas Cowboys in 2017, but he began falling out of favor with the coaching staff the next year and was subsequently released early last season. The Miami Dolphins picked him up and he made a handful of starts, but he was inactive three of the final four games for a team that fin-
ished last in the AFC East. Perhaps a change of scenery (again) will finally unlock his potential. Kpassgnon was a second-round pick who was initially moved to linebacker when the Chiefs ran a 3-4 scheme under former defensive coordinator Bob Sutton. He moved back to defensive end in the 43 system of Spagnuolo and began to show some promise. He wound up playing meaningful snaps as the Chiefs won their first title in 50 years. “I'm always looking to grow,� Kpassgnon said, “and especially making those key sacks or key plays. And being able to play in the Super Bowl, win the Super Bowl, it just boosted my confidence. Boosts the team's confidence.� Then there is Speaks, who was widely considered a reach when the Chiefs selected him in the second round of the 2018 draft. He played quite a bit with mixed reviews as a rookie, but a season-ending injury in training camp a year ago means he is still trying to learn Spagnuolo's system as he gets onto the practice field this fall. “We got him in training camp and he got hurt, so he at least had that background. But you have to do it,� Spagnuolo said. “It is one thing to do it in a meeting room and another to get out and do it.�
Former Chiefs’ Cut Now Starting In Denver Purcell Signed One-Year Deal In Offseason ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Vic Fangio approached nose tackle Mike Purcell recently and asked how it felt for
the 29-year-old journeyman to finally have a starting job and an established role after getting cut nine times in his career. “I told him my mentality’s not going to change,� Purcell said. “I’m going to fight the same way I did every single year. As soon as you feel like you get complacent (that’s) when things can turn for the worse. I’ve battled through hell and back.� Purcell salvaged his career
last year in Denver, where he played in 13 games and started seven, posting a career-best 48 tackles. At their season-ending news conference, both Fangio and GM John Elway praised Purcell as one of the team’s biggest surprises and in the offseason Purcell signed a oneyear, $3.259 million deal that dwarfs his career earnings of $2.298 million. Purcell grew up in High-
lands Ranch, Colorado not far from the Broncos headquarters. He went undrafted out of Wyoming in 2013 and spent that year on the 49ers’ practice squad. He played two games for the 49ers in 2014, eight in 2015 and 15 in 2016. In 2017, he spent time on the practice squads of the Bears, Patriots and Chiefs and he spent 2018 out of football completely after getting cut in camp by Kansas City.

OP/ED
Five Points by Wendell Lenhart
Glad To See School Starting
COVID-19 continues to drag on, but I am glad to see school will be starting next week around the area. In such an abnormal year, I think school being in session will help bring some normalcy and routine back into our everyday lives. I think it will be good for both students and parents. I applaud the Trenton R-9 administration, staff and school board for coming up with a workable plan to try and keep students and staff safe. It is far from an ideal situation and not everyone will be happy, but it is the best that can be done under the circumstances. The longer students Wendell Lenhart are kept out of the classroom, whether in person or online, the further they will fall behind and it will be much harder to catch up. Yes, there is a risk of the virus spreading while students are in school. But there’s also a risk they can get it at daycare and whenever and wherever middle and high school students gather together. All reasonable measures to lessen the risk of spreading COVID when gathering students together have to be taken and I think that is being done. We live with acceptable risk every day in our lives. There’s a risk of being in a car accident, but that doesn’t stop us from driving. There’s a risk of being struck by lightning, but we still go outside. You just have to be smart about what you’re doing. ##### Have you ever seen the crops looking so good in late August? With all the timely rain we have received this summer, the corn and beans look as green as the springtime. Hopefully that translates into a good harvest this fall and decent prices for farmers. We are fortunate to have avoided the drought and storms that have occurred in other parts of the country, especially the “Derecho” that blew through mid-Iowa last week, flattening crops in the field while we got more than an inch of needed rain. I had never heard that term before that storm hit. With sustained 80-mile per hour winds, it lasted for more than an hour in most places and was likened to an inland hurricane. And they prove harder to predict than tornadoes.

What Others Are Saying... Don’t Forget Immunizations
With COVID-19 worries overshadowing other issues as schools prepare to start, it would be easy to forget about immunizing our school children. While there’s only been one virus on our collective conscience over the past halfyear, there are plenty of other nasty viruses and bacteria that we can control with vaccines.
ELECTED OFFICIALS ADDRESSES
Guest Editorials And what about the students who will be distance-learning, either due to decisions of their schools or their parents? Can their immunizations be skipped this year? In a word, no. There has been confusion and misunderstandings about vaccines. But vaccines are an important part of individual health as well as our collective health. Vaccines prevent the spread of contagious, dangerous and deadly diseases. These include measles, polio, mumps, chicken pox, whooping cough, diphtheria and HPV. Smallpox killed an estimated 400 million people worldwide during the 1900s. It was also the illness that led to the creation of the first vaccine, which has eradicated the disease. Unfortunately, there has been much misunderstanding and misinformation about vaccines. To set the record straight, vaccines to not cause the illness they were created to prevent. They do not create harmful toxins. They do not cause autism. And they do not overrun an infant’s immune system. That said, there are people who should not receive vaccines, but you should consult and trust your children’s doctor on what vaccines they should receive. The Cole County Health Department is there to help as well. They can help with your child’s immunization record to find out what immunizations are needed and they can provide routine immunizations during weekdays. While our country seeks a vaccine for COVID-19, let’s not forget to immunize our children against other viruses and diseases as they return to school. — Jefferson City News-Tribune
HIGHLIGHTS WITH HEGEMAN 12th District State Sen. Dan Hegeman Room 332, State Capitol Jefferson City, MO 65101 Phone: 573-751-1415 dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov
HEADING BACK TO SCHOOL DURING A PANDEMIC We have reached the middle of August. For many parents and teachers, this means summer is winding down and school is about to start. Normally, the start of a new school year is an exciting time for students and parents, but the coronavirus has complicated this process for everyone involved with returning to the classroom. For the past month, there has been a great emphasis put on one question, “Should students return to class this fall or should they stay home for their classes?” Since the beginning of July, we have heard any number of answers to this question, from letting them go back to school to
a combination of half a week at school and the other half at home. Teachers, health experts and many others have looked at the best ways to socially distance in a classroom, how best to sanitize school buildings and ways by which education can continue without unnecessary hindrances. Fortunately, I believe our state is taking the right approach in letting individual school districts make the decisions that best suit their own needs, whether that be a full return to class, learning at home or any combination of learning options. I encourage everyone to be patient with their local districts as we all work
through this uncertain time. This is yet another strain on teachers and parents alike, and will be a learning experience for everyone involved. I firmly believe the folks responsible for these decisions in northwest Missouri will choose the best option for all parties involved. In my option, our schools are better equipped to handle this situation than we were back in the spring. Thank you to all of the hardworking teachers and school staffers, as well as the parents, for everything you are doing as we work our way through this pandemic together. Your courage and dedication is a beacon for all to follow. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns.

Scout For Two Emerging Corn Diseases In Midwest Missouri corn growers should scout for two emerging corn diseases: bacterial leaf streak and tar spot, says University of Missouri Extension plant pathologist Kaitlyn Bissonnette. These diseases appeared for the first time in Missouri in 2019. They have caused severe economic losses in surrounding states. Bissonnette offers facts and tips for growers to monitor their spread. Bacterial Leaf Streak Found in Nebraska in 2014 and 2015, bacterial leaf streak (Xanthomonas vasicula subsp. Vasiculorum) spread quickly to surrounding states, but it did not reach Missouri until July 2019. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Missouri is late to the game,â&#x20AC;? says Bissonnette. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois have reported the presence of BLS for several years.â&#x20AC;? Missouri reports two confirmed cases in 2019: one in westcentral (Ray County) and one in north-central (Chariton County) Missouri. At least three more counties suspect its presence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is critical to find where BLS is present since the pathogen overwinters on residues at the soil surface and on weedy hosts,â&#x20AC;? says Bissonnette. BLS generally appears after wet weather, high winds, hail damage or other inclement weather that causes leaf wounds where water can splash bacteria. Look for water soaking and long, necrotic lesions with irregular margins (see Figure 1). When leaves are backlit, a yellow halo is visible (Figure 2). Bacterial streaming is best seen under a microscope, so Bissonnette suggests sending samples to MU Extension for testing. BLS is often confused with gray leaf spot. If you see poor control of gray leaf spot in fields, check for BLS also. For more information, the Crop Protection Network publication â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bacterial Leaf Streakâ&#x20AC;? is available for download at CropProtectionNetwork.org/resources/publications/bacterialleaf-streak(opens in new window).
Tar spot Scout for tar spot (Phyllachora maydis) mid-to-late August through harvest. Bissonnette confirmed the presence of tar spot of corn in three northeastern Missouri counties (Scotland, Lewis and Clark) in fall of 2019. This fungal disease spread rapidly throughout the Midwest after it was first found in Indiana and Illinois in 2015. Researchers know little about this disease, the pathogens that cause it or how to manage it, Bissonnette says. Researchers do see differences among hybrids, fungicides and cultural practices to control this disease where it is well established. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Missouri is on the developing front of tar spot, so disease levels are currently low, making the focus on scouting and detection of new counties,â&#x20AC;? says Bissonnette. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This pathogen overwinters on corn residue in the field and possibly on weedy hosts,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tar spot often is confused with dirt on leaves, insect frass (excrement) or southern rust late in the season as the pustules turn black from a change in spore phases.â&#x20AC;? It can appear anywhere in the canopy, but it generally shows in the lower canopy in fields with a history of disease. It typically begins in late reproductive growth stages. As harvest nears, it affects healthy green tissue (Figure 3) and senescing tissue (Figure 4) . In severe cases, plants senesce prematurely with significant yield loss. Sometimes there are tan â&#x20AC;&#x153;fish-eyeâ&#x20AC;? or tan diamondshaped lesions surrounding the black raised dots (stroma) on leaves. Stroma can appear on a single leaf or multiple leaves, covering leaves, husks and ears. Stroma do not rub off with a fingernail and have not broken through the leaf surface like southern rust. If you suspect BLS or tar spot, submit a sample to your county MU Extension center. For more information, contact Bissonnette at bissonnettek@missouri.edu(opens in new window). See updates on county confirmations on the Pest Information Platform for Extension and Education at corn.ipmpipe.org(opens in new window).
Agricultural Survey Questionnaires To Be Sent During the first two weeks of September, growers of small grains around the country will receive Agricultural Survey questionnaires from the U.S. Department of Agricultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Agricultural Statistics Service. The agency is taking a comprehensive look into the 2020 production and supply of small grains, including
wheat, oats, barley, and rye. NASS will contact Missouri farmers and ranchers to gather information on their 2020 production of small grains and the quantities of all grains stored on the farm. Producers are encouraged to respond conveniently online at agcounts.usda.gov. The online questionnaire is fast and secure. Farmers may
also return their completed surveys by mail. Farmers who have not responded by Aug. 29 may receive a phone call from a NASS representative who will help them fill out the survey or schedule a time to do so. NASS will publish the results in the annual â&#x20AC;&#x153;Small Grains Summaryâ&#x20AC;? and quarterly Grain Stocks report on Sept.
30, available at nass.usda.gov/Publications. These survey data also contribute to the USDAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s World Agricultural Outlook Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthly World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimate. For more information, persons can call the NASS Heartland Regional Field Office at 800-551-1014.
USDA NASS To Conduct September Hog And Pig Survey The U.S. Department of Agricultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Agricultural Statistics Service is contacting producers for the September Hogs and Pigs Survey. Each quarter this survey provides comprehensive information on market hog and breeding stock inventories as well as pig crop and farrowing intentions in the US. The data gathered in the September survey will allow NASS to accurately measure and report conditions and trends in the U.S. pork industry over the last three months. The information is used by all sectors of the industry, including producers themselves, to help make sound and timely business decisions. NASS will mail the questionnaires to selected hog producers in August. Farmers are encouraged to respond online at agcounts.usda.gov, or by mail. Alternatively, NASS representatives will contact those who have not responded to arrange telephone interviews to complete the survey. NASS safeguards the privacy of all respondents and publishes only aggregate data, ensuring that no individual operation or producer can be identified, as required by federal law. NASS will publish the survey results in the Quarterly Hogs and Pigs report on Sept. 24. The report will be available online at www.nass.usda.gov/Publications. For more information, persons can call the NASS Heartland Regional Field Office at 800-551-1014.

ACROSS MISSOURI
Viewers Adjust To Virtual Convention Format BALLWIN, Mo. (AP) — Nick Zingarelli relished Michelle Obama's speech at the Democratic National Convention this week, especially when the former first lady used President Donald Trump's own words — “It is what it is” — to sum up Democrats' disappointment in his presidency. But the moment on the first night of the first virtual convention was bittersweet for Zingarelli. A line that good deserved a thunderous applause from a crowded convention hall, he thought. “Not having that response — yeah, there was something that was taken away from that,” said Zingarelli, a 41-year-old lawyer from suburban St. Louis. “But it’s the best that we can do in this environment." In other words, it is what it is. Many Americans who have tuned in to Democrats' experiment in socially distanced political theater have come away with similar reactions. They believe that a traditional nominating convention — a boisterous and quirky affair staged for a packed audience of hyped-up political activists — had to be sacrificed for safety and
public health. But its replacement — a mashup of homemade videos, slickly produced montages and speeches with no applause — takes some getting used to. Millions of people are still watching Democrats' four-day celebration of their presidential nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, and his running mate, California Sen. Kamala Harris. They are at home watching on TV and computer screens, or passing around clips of the highlights the day after. Some were in their cars at drivein movie-style viewing stations Democrats set up in a few states. Some have tried for a social experience by jumping on a Zoom watch party. Zingarelli organized a video conference for 25 attendees on Monday night and said the communal experience was lively. “My wife and I were sitting side by side, rocking our Joe Biden aviators from the dollar store, just promoting the fun, and my wife was making signs,” Zingarelli, an ardent Biden supporter, said. Through two nights, television
viewership is sharply down from the 2016 convention. Monday's first night reached 19.7 million viewers, the second night 19.2 million; the audience was around 25 million four years ago, the Nielsen company said. It's hard to judge how much is due to the format, since people in general are watching less TV than they did four years ago. The Biden campaign says an additional 10.2 million streamed the first night. Although that couldn't be independently verified, this year's programs appears tailor-made for that format, easily consumed in snippets and bites. The speeches have been shorter and less formal than the behind-the-podium oratory of conventions past. The new virtual format has spawned some creative reimagining of old traditions — including a new roll call vote quickly embraced as a success. Viewers praised the montage of clips featuring delegates announcing their states' vote tallies from state landmarks and scenic landscapes. Laura DeGroff Simoes of Concord, New Hampshire, who voted in the
Democratic primary but considers herself an independent, said it's a welcome change that offered a glimpses of the places homebound Americans miss. “There was much more diversity represented, there were different languages. I loved seeing the backdrop of where people were from,” said Simoes, who watched on TV alongside her husband and two sons. Lynn Hart, a South Dakota farmer who is both Black and a member of the Yankton Sioux Tribe, would have been in Milwaukee, the original site of the convention, as a first-time delegate. While disappointed about the change, he said there have been perks. The video conference format allows him to network with other Democrats while moving seamlessly between a lineup of meetings. “I can sit here in my shorts, T-shirt or my pajamas and pick and choose who I listen to,” he said. But some delegates missed the inperson action. Jackie Craig, a Minnesota delegate, watched from her home — sometimes from a closet so she wouldn’t
distract the rest of the family. A selfdescribed “obnoxious extrovert,” she said it was a “little deflating” missing the in-person experience. “I would have been like one of those dogs who wags its tail so hard it probably passed out,” Craig, 49, said. Republicans are watching, too. Carol Wessel Boyer of Troy, Missouri, has been active in GOP politics for decades and knows the kind of bounce conventions can give to a candidate. She doesn’t see the virtual DNC generating that sort of excitement, and doesn’t expect the Republican version will, either. “They’re just not going to get the enthusiasm you normally pick up from a convention,” Boyer said. “It’s hard to get excited about something virtually.” Republicans will get their shot next week. President Donald Trump is due to give his nomination acceptance speech at the White House. But GOP convention planners have said little else about the details of their programming or format.

Please be ready and have your student to the bus stop 5 minutes early. This will ensure that you don’t miss the bus and the bus will stay on schedule. Please contact the bus company with any messages for the bus drivers as they are on a schedule and it creates a safety issue talking with drivers during the bus route. Always be aware of the school buses during their routes. Yellow flashing lights mean the bus is about to stop and students are present. Always stop when the red lights are flashing and the stop arm is extended. This means students will be active outside and around the bus. Trenton R-9 children and their safety are important to us. Thanks for your cooperation. New Apple Bus Policy - Preschool, Kindergarten and 1st Grade students must have a parent or designated adult present at the bus stop in the afternoon. If no adult is present, that student will remain on the bus unless you give us permission to do otherwise. If you have any questions, contact Steve Liechti at 339-7227.

- was spot on. Because some people may have a speech impediment, it's best to let those mispronunciations slide. Being hard-of-hearing and having a speech impediment myself, I'll fumble a word here and there and, unless I specifically ask for the correct pronunciation, I expect people to know better than to call it out, as long as they understand what I meant. It's pretty rude to interrupt a person like myself by correcting things I say, because then it can become constant and makes one feel insecure. I went through 12 years of speech therapy, and I'm pretty well understood 99% of the time. I hope my friends and acquaintances will please not focus on the 1% of the time. Just let it go. It might be small stuff to them, but small stuff can bother some people in a big way. When in doubt, don't sweat it. - Gabe K. Dear Gabe: I appreciate and agree with your perspective. The following is a complementary take on the same issue. Dear Annie: I just read the letter and your reply to "Won-
Dear Annie: My direct manager recently deleted me on the networking website LinkedIn. I have repeatedly asked him, in person and through email, why he deleted me, but I receive nothing but vague responses from him. I feel a lack of respect over his deleting me and even more so when he refuses to tell me why he made this decision. We're both adults here; let's be mature. I was shocked that he removed me from his connections. Should I be concerned about my position at the company? Am I at risk of being fired? -- Linked Out Dear Linked Out: Who knows why your manager deleted you. Everyone has different comfort levels with whom they'd like to connect with online. It doesn't mean your job is in jeopardy. But if you keep pestering him about it, you might fulfill your own prophecy. Dear Annie: I wanted to say that your response to "Wondering in Anywhere, USA" -- the person who was wondering whether to correct a friend's "pr-" word mispronunciations -

dering" about correcting mispronounced words. While it's possible that these people had a speech impairment, it's also quite possible that they don't know how to pronounce the words. Having taught English to speakers of other languages for over 20 years, I have plenty of experience with people not knowing how to pronounce words. In my case, my students are often lacking confidence as well as English skills, so I find it important not to further damage that confidence. My strategy is not to call attention to their mistake, but rather to matter-of-factly form a question or response that includes the word, pronounced correctly, of course. In that way, they're able to hear the correct pronunciation without feeling they've been "corrected." This is even more important in a group setting, as focusing on the mistake would cause further embarrassment in front of others. They may continue to mispronounce the word, but at least they've heard it said correctly, and hopefully, they'll eventually get it right. -- Proud Teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages Dear Proud Teacher: Indeed, this could be a subtle way to clue someone into a correct pronunciation. Thanks for your expertise and for helping so many students.

Looking for Work It’s a tough time to be a college graduate. The hiring outlook for fresh grads is bleak because of the coronavirus pandemic’s devastating effect on the global economy. Companies big and small have scaled back their recruitment plans, making competition for the remaining jobs much more intense. In July, graduate job vacancies in 10 countries were down sharply from the same month last year, according to Adzuna, a search engine for job postings. The British job market was the worst hit, with 93 applications for each graduate job and only 4% of graduates from the Class of 2020 able to find a job, the report found. The situation is much the same in many other countries, with vacancies in the Netherlands and India falling at nearly the same rate. It’s not all bad. In the U.K., where about 800,000 young people are expected to leave school and enter the workforce this year, Adzuna says there are still about 4,700 unfilled graduate job postings, with many in finance, engineering, healthcare and teaching.
