Bryant has also held several dif- ferent positions within the Florida Department of Correction, beginning as a correctional officer at Central Florida. Reception Center in 1988. He climbed the ranks and served as Warden at To- moka Correctional Institution, Florida State Prison, New River Correctional, Institution, as well as Central Florida: Reception Center. Before moving to Ohio, Bryant was also the FDOC's Director of Institutions in Region I. Bryant's hire comes after JCI's previous warden, Ted Jeter, was fired in April on misconduct charges. BY LAUREN DELGADO Idelgado@jcfloridan.com The termination of former Jackson Cor- rectional Institution warden Ted Jeter and assistant warden Carolann Bracewell stems from the mishandling of the medi- cal cases of two,inmates and the conse- quent cover up by the two and other JCI employees, according to investigation documents. The following account is from the investigation documents: In early July 2011, Inmate 1 had two medical appointments before being seen by an unspecified nurse who changed his course of'treatment for a condition. He began feeling side effects and tried to see medical personnel again, but he was refused. On the morning of July 23, Inmate 1 could not get out of bed and felt a differ- ence in his face. The documents show that Senior Registered Nurse.Tara West came for the inmate wvih a wheelchair and told him she needed to obtain permission to See WARDEN, Page 7A ART FOR A CAUSE Art auction at Marianna High School All proceeds to benefit the MHS art department BY LAUREN DELGADO Idelgado@jcfloridan.com Marianna High. School students will exhibit arid auction off the art they cre- ated in class this year from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. on Thursday and Friday in the school media center. Art teacher Dr. Jerri Benton said this is the art department's major fund- raiser. All the proceeds go to buy supplies. The de- partment usually makes around $2,000. "We couldn't make it without doing 'this," Benton said. -Students from ninth to 12th grades will have art featured in the event. The amount of art each student will have displayed varies on its complexity and how fast a student works, Ben- ton said. Advanced Place- ment students typically create the most, as they are required to have 24 pieces of art. Almost every piece they create goes into the auc- tion, although she does al- low students to keep pieces if it has personal meaning to them. "I'm proud of what they ,do," Benton said. Everything from paint- ings to sculptures will be displayed and auctioned. Most of the silent auc- tion prices will begin at $5, Benton said.

Dam flows affected by drought BY DEBORAH BUCKHALTER dbuckhalter@jcfloridan.com - -" _- '- -- '.:''* *'. . _. .-.,- .;', ' MARKSKINNE A small group of Canadian geese were attempting to frolic in the water downstream Jim Woodruff Dam Tuesday in Chattahoochee. Water release from the dam is being re because of continuing dry conditions in the southeast. Continued dry conditions across the southeast have triggered the start of "drought operations" by the US Corps of Engineers, meaning the agency will limit the release of water from Lake Semi- nole into the Apalachicola River at Jim Woodruff dam. ;' Although at least 5,000 cubic feet of wa- ter per second will be released-in order to protect endangered and threatened species on the system that need a certain amount of water cover to survive that minimum flow will be the standard until lakes on the Apalachicola-Chattahooch- ee-Flint River system return to acceptable ER/FLORIDAN levels. im from "At this time the long range forecast for stricted the ACF basin does not look promising," Corps Chief of Public Affairs Pat Rob- bins said in a press release on Tuesday." It will take significant and frequent storm events to recharge the basin hydrology, or a tropical system, before operations and lake levels return to normal. Stream flows are reaching historic low levels through- out the basin and have already set re- cord lows.on the Flint River due to lack of normal winter and spring rains." These extreme low flows have driven the composite conservation storage in the Federal reservoirs to the Zone 4 level, which triggers drought operations. Rob- bins said the lake must return to Zone 2 levels before drought operations-cease. On Tuesday, Lake Sidney Lanier, near Atlanta, along with West Point Lake and Walter E George, were expected to reach Zone 4 stage, triggering the interim op- erations plan at Woodruff.

Among the requirements the 18-year-old met in attaining this honor were: earning 21 merit badges; while as a Life Scout, serving in a leadership posi- tion within his troop; planning and providing leadership for his community service project and'passing an Eagle board of review. Barnes earned a total of 22 merit badges and is an Ordeal member of the Cowikee Lodge, Order of Arrow.

The troop's committee chair- man is Peggy McCool and the Scoutmaster is Bill Everitt. The Scout's Eagle service proj- ect in October 2011 was the de- sign and installation of a prayer garden for his home church of New Hope Missionary Baptist Church in Two Egg. Along with fellow Scouts and church vol- unteers, Barnes spent many hours removing topsoil, level- ing walkways, spreading gravel, planting trees, flowers, shrubs and grass seed and installing wooden benches. An impres- sive outpouring of money and materials donated from the local business community allowed for completion of the project. Since joining Boy Scouts in August 2005, Barnes.has partici- pated in countless community service projects such as Scout- ing for Food and Relay for Life. He has worked alongside his fel- low Scouts at fundraising events in order to help his troop and others in the community who were in need. He has attended Scouting events at the Council and District level and has hiked the Appalachian Trail. Because he has reached the age of 18, Samuel will assume the role as an Assistant Scoutmaster in his troop after his advance- ment to Eagle. He is also quite sure that he will remain active in Scouting as an adult, continu- ing his training and volunteering where needed. Samuel Barnes is the son of Janie Barnes of Marianna, and the lateWillie Barnes. His mater- nal grandparents are Robert and Wille Mae Riggins of LaGrange, Ga.

Unfortunately, one issue that is hardly ever mentioned, by any candidate, is the war in Afghanistan. President Obama and the presumptive Repub- lican nominee, Romney, should be talking about the conflict, now and in the upcoming months, because the longest war in American history has affected so many people and it will remain a crucial issue for whomever'wins in November. One year ago today, we thought the killing and horrors of Afghanistan might be close to being finished. One year ago today, the nation and much of the world was rejoicing after the dra- matic Navy SEAL raid that resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden. There was dancing in the streets that you normally see when a war ends. But the war didn't end that day. Arid it continues today. Just last week, a column by the Sun Sentinel's Mike Mayo told the story of Michael Metcalf, a Coral Springs native and Boynton Beach resi- dent. Metcalf, along with another member of his convoy, was killed after running over an impro- vised explosive device in the Paktia province of Afghanistan. They were the 1,827th and 1,828th U.S. military fatalities in the Afghanistan war. Of course, you wouldn't know that from the lack of focus on this issue in the presidential campaign. When you do hear about Afghanistan in the campaign, chances are it's a cheap ploy to score political points. The Obama campaign released a video last week implying that Romney would not have ordered the raid against bin Laden. Earlier in the week, Vice President Joe Biden said: "...we know what President Obama did. We can't say for certain what Governor Romney would have ddne." Please. We have brave soldiers fighting and dy- ing in Afghanistan,"doing heroic work to protect our freedoms, and politicians exploit it for their own gain. Disgraceful. For sure, the war has caused plenty of tensions and controversy. U.S. officials have criticized the leadership of Afghanistan President Hamid Kar- zai, and questioned how taxpayer money is being used in that country. U.S. troops themselves have been placed at considerable risk following the Quran-burning incident, the rampage shooting of one group of civilians and the photos of Marines urinating on corpses. Through it all, through all the deaths and the niore than $500 billion spent on the war, Ameri- can troops continue to perform their job nobly. And, despite what many thought when there was dancing in the streets one year ago, the war is definitely not over. There is an exit strategy for a handover in 2014, but Americans need the presidential candidates to assess progress toward that end, They need to spell out their expecta- tions and what they would do to ensure stability in Afghanistan in post-2014. America's ongoing role over there, and our future there, needs to be discussed thoroughly by both presidential candidates. Without exploiting it.

I.: :~ ~ I-~ Florida Voices Rein in local government pay, pensions and perks It will be tough sledding, but the Florida Legislature needs. to continue trying to rein in the unsustainable rise in public pensions and benefits. Fortunately, the state has done a good job in recent years. Local governments, not so much. Pew Center on the States said in a 2007 study: "Florida is a national leader in saving enough to cover its pension bill but it hasn't yet put any money aside for future retiree health benefit costs." Altogether, states are $1.26 trillion behind the curve in paying for ben- efits, Pew said in a 2011 update. Democrat coAtrolled states such as California and Illinois are drowning in debt and seeing businesses flee because of pension obligations politicians have been unwilling to address. . For a look at the growing prob- lems nationwide with public pensions, see this: http://www.na tionalreview.com/articles/297094/ public-employee-unions-gone- wild-patrick-'brennan Granting overly generous public employee pay and benefits is easy for politicians. They can promise the moon, pick up a few votes for re-election, and let future genera- tions worry about the cost. Public employee unions know this and exploit it to the max. If they can't get costly benefits from local governments, they are not shy LloydBrown Florida Voices abolt running to Tallahassee. Leg- islators often are happy to please them, leaving it to the local officials to figure out how to pay the cost. The American Legislative Ex- change Council says state and local employee benefits are 69 percent higher than those of employees in the private sector. Most private pension plans are. defined contribution, meaning the employee contributes as much as' he likes, up to a limit, and usually the employers match a certain amount. The pension depends on what the investment earns. Most government entities have defined benefit plans, which prom- ise employees a certain percentage of their pay upon retirement. If the state can't earn the money by investing, it must pony up any- way, which generally requires tax increases. The Florida Retirement System began offering a defined contribu- tion plan as an alternative in 2000 and about 15 percent of'employees take that option. One weak spot is that Florida is the only state where public employees pay nothing for their retirement. Gov. Rick Scott and the Legislature tried to fix that but were stymied, temporarily, by a court ruling. There are also other gold-plated programs for state employees, such as the DROP program and health insurance subsidies for retirees. Florida TaxWatch has recommend- ed eliminating both. But the fiscal responsibility shown in Tallahassee hasn't filtered down to local governments. James Madison Institute, a Tal- lahassee think tank, said, "As of year-end 2011, Florida's 100 largest cities oversee 208 separate pension plans for their employees. Of these, only 14 percent received a grade of "A," or were at least 90 percent funded;,62 percent received a grade of "C" or lower, and 15 percent were woefully underfunded." Legislators have limited abil- ity to nudge local politicians toward fiscal responsibility. That's mostly up to local voters. If they are happy paying higher taxes to provide better pay and benefits to public employees than they have themselves, so be it. Lloyd Brown was in the newspaper business nearly 50 years, beginning as a copy boy and retiring as editorial page editor of the Florida Times-Union in Jacksonville. Florida Supreme Court justices goofed, but not a criminal offense BY BILL COTTERELL Florida Voices AThen the legendary state \\ Sen. Dempsey Barron bossed the Florida Senate, he would dismiss a silly argument by reciting a ribald limerick ending with the Latin legal dictum "de minimus non curate lex" the law does not concern itself with trifles. Political campaigns, however, do. Nothing is so trivial that it can't be puffed up into a full-blown gaffe - or, better yet, a criminal viola- tion by people who really, really wish to take offense. Which brings us to the Florida Supreme Court. The seven jus- tices recessed oral arguments on legislative redistricting on April 20 so three members could file their retention-election campaign papers just before a noon deadline. And what will come as the biggest shock, to political observers who take their meals in-highchairs, is that they used state employees for this scrivener's chore. Supreme Court justices don't have much political experience a good thing so they must have thought they had completed all their paperwork. Lucky for them, an adviser spotted the mistake and got it fixed, or else Gov. Rick Scott would have had three vacancies to fill. State Rep. Scott Plakon, R-Long- wood, last week urged Scott to sic the Florida Department of Law Enforcement on Justices Barbara Pariente, Fred Lewis and Peggy Quince. He cited a law forbidding candidates to "use the services of any state, county, municipal or district officer or employee during working hours." Attorney Dan Stengle, who ad- vises the three justices' campaigns, replied that their candidacy papers were not "an electioneering com- munication." Rather, he said, they are legal documents like thousands of others that pass through the court every day. OK, it shouldn't have happened. A professionally run retention team would have taken care of this much sooner. But, as mentioned earlier, politics is not these guys' day job. Maybe there is a bit of hubris here. In the rarified, above-politics atmosphere of the judicial branch, judges can confuse "appointed" with "anointed." If there were, in fact, a few minutes of the taxpayers' time spent on filing legally required documents well, it's not like staffers were making fundraising calls on state phones or running campaign leaflets through the clerk's postage meter. The'late Lt. Gov. Tom Adams was almost impeached for using a couple of state workers as field hands at his Gadsden County farm. That was an extreme example, but it's not unusual for coworkers to be friends and do small favors, even when one outranks the other by six or 10 pay grades. Spotting abuse of public employ- ees for personal or political chores is like U.S. Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart said of pornography. You can't legally define it, but you .know it when you see it. We all know the difference between mak- ing a pizza run when everybody works late, or taking a message from the boss's spouse which is not in your job description and being pressured to run errands and babysit for someone who just hap- pens to have the power to fire you. There has been no allegation of threats, intimidation or chronic abuse of Supreme. Court employ- ees. At worst, the paperwork recess ran too long and some litigants in the redistricting case probably paid $500 an hour to lawyers who cooled their tasseled loafers in the rotun- da. While the justices can't ethically reimburse parties in the redistrict- ing case for the cumulative billable hours, maybe they could make a token equivalent contribution to a scholarship fund for needy law students including the cost of a half-hour's salary for however many employees ran and fetched for them. But a criminal investiga- tion? What's Latin for "Oh, be serious?" Bill Cotterell, retired senior writer for the Tallahassee Democrat, has covered Florida government and politics since 1969.

When he did examine the inmate on July 25, Dr. Andem transferred him. The officer who corroborat- ed with West's story later retract- ed it, saying Jeter had threatened to ruin his career if he didn't lie.

The first meeting came the same day that the lob- bying arm of the National Rifle Association put out a statement saying there was no need to tamper with stand your ground laws because "the alterna- tive leaves the innocent in danger." "The vast majority of states do not impose a "duty to retreat" and most Americans support laws that clarify that common law, common-sense right. It empowers lawful people to defend themselves, and July 26, Chabot submitted an in- cident report. The investigation found allegations that the officer who accepted Chabot's report was later chastised by Jeter and Bracewell. The investigation, also revealed that Inmate 2 was brought to JCI on July 24, on which he began experiencing medical problems. He said the nurse on duty "kept" sending him back to his dormito- ry. He eventually received medi- cal care but not enough to allevi- ate his medical problems. He was later taken to an outside medical facility on July 25. According to the investigation, a review of his file didn't contain a diagnosis or other medical documents. According to an investigator note in the report, the five nurses assigned to the inmates' cases did. not "adequately document" ei- ther inmate's condition or report the cases. The nurses received a written reprimand, 30-day sus- pension and were put under a performance improvement plan. The Director of Nursing for the deters would-be murder- ers, rapists and robbers," states the statement from the NRA Institute for Leg- islative Action. The group even had a spirited debate over where they should meet. After much debate, the task force voted to hold its June meeting in Sanford, where Martin was killed. They also vote to meet in Sep- tember in Martin's home- town of Miami Gardens. Florida State University Police Chief David Perry said it was important to make "a statement" by choosing to go to Sanford. Carroll said she wanted the task force do its work "separate and apart" from the ongoing criminal case Florida Department of Correc- tions, Collean D'Aquisto, said she initially wanted to fire all the nurses, but this changed at a meeting where Jeter defended the nurses. According to the investi- gation, the only nurse allowed to come and speak at this meeting was West. Senior Inspector Julie Mader began investigating the incidents on July 26 by interviewing JCI em- ployees and gathering evidence. According to the investigation, around 10 a.m. July 26, Jeter asked Mader why she needed the medi- cal documents for the inmates and told her he had already noti- fied officials about the situations. The investigation revealed that Jeter knew about the allega- tions but did not notify anyone for almost 19 hours, only after the Chabot's incident report was submitted. The investigation also found that two incident reports were doctored to be dated around the time of the events, but a check from the Office of Information against Zimmerman. 'But eventually she and nearly everyone else on the panel agreed to go to Sanford, especially since they plan to go before a jury would likely be select- ed in the case. Mark Seiden, a crimi- nal defense attorney from Miami, was the lone op- ponent to the idea, saying that it was wrong for the task force to be "targeted on a single area because a case happened there." Carroll started the meet- ing with a spirited defense of the task force, which come under fire because it lacks young people and because it includes legis- lators who voted'for the "stand your ground" law. Technology showed they were created more than two weeks after. Officials also replaced old re- ports with the reports concern- ing the inmates to make it appear as though they had been created right after the incidents. Nursing Supervisor Glynda Edwards admitted that Jeter in- structed her to provide false in- formation in a report in order to make West's involvement more favorable. She also said Jeter re- fused to discipline any of the nurses. Senior Health Services Admin- istrator Linda Cain's reports were created at Bracewell's worksta- tion. Both reports were signed Soff by Cain and Jeter. The infor- mation' contained in one report was found to have been worded by Jeter, a lieutenant and anoth- er correctional officer through emails. Both Jeter and Bracewell were fired on April 12. Cain was sus- pended without pay for 80 work hours.

He replaces long-time Chipola coach David Lane, who left the school to become an assistant at Drake University last week. Franklin was originally set to be Lane's assistant coach this sea- son, but after Lane's departure, he finds himself tasked with leading the Lady Indians back to national prominence. "It's a great day to be an Indian," Franklin said. "David has done a tre- mendous job here, so I want to keep that tradition going and help Chipo- la win championships." The. 41-year-old coach comes to Chipola after spending the last five seasons as an assistant coach at Mis- sissippi State, and spent 10 years prior to that at Southeastern Illinois - five years as an assistant coach in the men's program, and five as head coach for the women. In those five seasons leading the Southeastern women, Franklin's teams made four trips to the na- tional tournament in Salina, Kan., and even took a win over Lane's Lady Indians in the 2005 tourney. Southeastern Illinois subsequently made trips to Marianna to play the Lady Indians for early-season games, with Chipola winning both. It's a fact that Lane made a point of noting during the press conference, for which his friend of nearly 10 years Franklin had a quick rebuttal. "David likes to talk about (being 2-1 head to head), but two of those games were (in Marianna), and I'll have that advantage now," he said.

Chipola Baseball Panhandle champs rack up conference honors BY DUSTIN KENT dkent@jcfloridan.com The Chipola Indians' baseball team placed six players on*the All-Panhandle Conference First Team, including three of the top four pitchers. Andrew Toles, Kaleb Barlow, and Jordan Poole were the Chipola position players named to the firstteam, while Robby Coles, Austin Southall, and LJ Hollins made up 75 percent of the first team pitching staff, with Gulf Coast State's David Trexler the fourth all conference hurler. Toles was named the league's Player of the Year after batting .378 with five home runs, 35 RBIs, 44 runs, 14 doubles, and 30 stolen bases. See PANHANDLE, Page 2B GRMS Volleyball Grand Ridge continues winning ways BY SHELIA MADER Floridan Correspondent The Grand Ridge Middle School Lady Indi- ans volleyball teams continue to rack up the wins. Their latest victim was the Vernon Lady Yel- low Jackets on the road last Thursday. Vernon's young team was no contest for the experienced and talented Lady Indians, as Grand Ridge won 25-10 and 25-5 in 'B' team action. The 'A team proved to be just as talented, as they took 25-9 and 25-11 game wins to pick up the win for the match. Leading the Lady Indians A' team was Ash- lyn Roberts with 13 points, 11 aces, and two kills, followed by Ashlyn Edwards and Charli Robbirds with four points and one ace each. Maddie Pickens picked up four points and three aces, while Maggie Aaron had two points. On the board with one point and one ace was Logan McCord, while Emily Glover had two kills, and Ma'Kienna Sneads had three points and two aces. For the 'B' team, it was Alyssa Stagner with 22 points and five aces, while MaKae- lin Sneads had six points and Kayla Edwards picked up five points and two aces. Sierra McNeil recorded three points, two aces, and one kill, while Allie Ann McCord had two points and two aces. Crystal Hernandez checked in with two points, and Taylor Roberts added two kills. The Lady Indians were scheduled to host Vernon on Tuesday evening. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL e attitude MARK SKINNER/THE FLORIDAN Graceville Head Football Coach Mark Beach runs the Tigers through their drills Tuesday. Beach looks to make Tigers tougher, more consistent BY DUSTIN KENT dkent@jcfloridan.com Jackson County football teams be- gan their first day of spring practice Tuesday afternoon, with two new coaches looking to establish their programs' new identities. Mark Beach at Graceville and Tim Cokely at Marianna each begin their new regimes this week, with Beach having perhaps the toughest job of all in'trying to turn around a Tigers pro- gram that has won just eight games in the last three seasons. Beach came to Graceville after last season from Hernando High School where he served as the offensive co- ordinator on a team that went 8-3 and won a district championship. The coach said that the first step towards replicating that kind of suc- cess at Graceville will be establishing a pattern of hard work and focus in the spring. "We want to make everyone be consistent and accountable for the spring, which means showing up on time, getting used to me and my rules, and raising the bar for what we want to accomplish," he said. "It's setting high expectations and working hard every day at a high and hard tempo, not taking plays off, and working through being tired. "It's about toughness, but more about the mental toughness than the actual physical toughness. I know we've got some physically tough kids, but I've always been a believer that if the mind falls, the body will fol- low. We'll see in these next couple of weeks how tough we are." The Tigers will wrap up their spring on May 18 with a home game against Freeport. SBeach said that he hopes his team will have a good outing in that game, but his primary focus is simply on developing his players and his team up through the spring finale. "We're not talking about wins and losses, but about going out and com- peting and working hard and finish- ing," he said. "I'm not really con- cerned about (Freeport's) defense or what they're doing. I'm trying to get our guys lined up properly and get them to be fluid mentally without having to think that much." So far, Beach said that his players are responding well to what he is ask- ing of them. "We met (Monday) to get our equipment and a bunch of guys in there were just super enthusiastic with great attitudes. They're ready to roll," he said. The Tiger players are surely moti- vated to turn things around after a 2-8 season in 2011, but Beach said he doesn't believe that's the reason for the upbeat morale of the team. "I don't think that has anything to do with what's happened," he said. "I think they're just ready and change is good. They're bought in. I don't re- ally know why, but I'm just glad they are." As far as what the spring session will entail, the coach said it will not be complicated. "I'm a big basic skills guy. We start everything basic and keep. it basic. We don't vary much from that," Beach said. "There are no secret recipes out there. We do our skill stuff, our indi- vidual steps and condition, and team defense. We'll jupt try to put guys in a position to be successful." High School Track Cassidy brings state championship to Sneads vu m1T ITI 1rklT dkent@jcfloridan.cdm After two straight years of having to settle for second best, Sneads' Michael Cas- sidy finally achieved his ul- timate goal at last weekend's 1A Track & Field Finals in Jacksonville, winning a state championship in the boys' shot put. A senior for the Pirates, Cassidy competed in the shot put and the boys' dis- cus throw, finishing first in the former and fourth in the latter. His mark of 51 feet, 10 inches was not a personal best that was the 53-feet, 10-inch mark he had in the regional meet but it was good enough by almost a foot to take first over Benjamin's Trenton Saunders. Cassidy said he didn't go into the meet thinking about winning, but once he had, he felt a great deal of satisfaction. "I guess it was a feeling of accomplishment because I've been trying for so long to become the state champi- on," he said. "Once it actually happened, I was very content with it, very happy." That the win came after consecutive second-lace fin- ishes in 2010 and 2011 made the win all the sweeter, Cas- sidy said. "Yeah, it definitely did. The kid who beat me last year got me by seven inches, and I lost by six feet the year be- fore," he said. "Once I finally won it, it was well worth the wait. I can tell you that." One person who did go in expecting him to win was Sneads track coach Cedric Gillette, who has coached Cassidy since he was in the sixth grade. "It was a proud moment for me to see how far he's come over the years," he said. "To see him actually win with all the work and dedication and energy he invested for this one day, it was awesome." Cassidy said the win didn't come easy, but rather as the result of years of very hard work and preparation with his coach. The preparation for the state meet was exhaustive, but ultimately paid off with a win.

Benefits'from the "Colonel Thomas" Memorial Golf Classic will help fund FFA and 4H schol- arships at Chipola College For more information, call Franklin From Page 1B The two coaches teased. each other before, during, and after the press confer- ence, and both said they were bittersweet about not getting to work to- gether on the same staff. "We have a brotherly kind of relationship," Franklin said of Lane. "I was really looking forward to (working with him),"' Lane also said that, while happy about his new op- portunity at Drake, he was hoping to get a chance to work side by side with Franklin. "He and I have been .friends for a long time, and that's the most disap- pointing part (of leaving), not being able to work with him," he said. The now former Chipola coach said that he thought Franklin and Chipola was a very good match. "I think it's a great fit. I think his personality will go over well here," Lane said. "From my experi- ence at Chipola, there are, a lot ofDifision-I assistant coaches who go to aJUCO school and think they've got it figured out imme- diately. But (Franklin) has been there and he under- stands it, so it should be an easier job for him." Lane brought a lot of success to Chipola during his nine seasons includ- ing four state titles and two final four appearanc- es at the national tourna- ment but one thing he was unable to bring to the school was the pro- gram's first ever national championship. It's a goal. that Franklin has now adopted as the new Lady Indians coach, and one that he said is a major mo- tivator for him as a coach. "That was one of the most enticing things about this opportunity," he said., "There were other jobs out there, but I want to do here what no one has done before,. and that's win a national championship." The LadyIndians haven't been to the national tour- nament since 2009, and have missed the state tournament in each of the last three seasons. To get the program back to the level it was in recent years, Franklin said tfiere's one simple factor. "Recruiting," he said. "We've got to have kids, and we've started on that. It's -been a whirlwind so far, but I've got to go get my talons into some tal- ent. This is the time of the year you have to make a statement (in recruiting). I'm still catching up, but we'll get there." The coach is also in the process of putting togeth- er a staff, which he said could include two former players to go along with a full-time assistant. Chipola went 17-9 last year, including 5-7 in the Panhandle Conference. After a three-year post- season dry spell, Franklin said he knows that Chipo- la supporters are hungry to get back into the state tournament and become a national presence as it was in seasons past. And the coach said that's perfectly fine by him. "When you're at a top 5-10 program year in and year out, you know the ex- pectations," he said. "I put all the pressure on myself when I was at Southeastern, but (at Chipola) ft has all'been positive so far."

The $2 billion sale of the team to Guggenheim Base- ball Management, a group that includes former Los Angeles Lakers star Magic Johnson, was finalized' Tuesday. McCourt met with Dodg- ers employees Tuesday, ex- pressing his appreciation, and introduced new con- trolling'owner Mark Wal- ter, said Howard Sunkin, a spokesman for McCourt. Walter is chief execu- tive officer of the financial services firm Guggenheim Partners. The team will be run by former Atlanta Braves President Stan Kas- ten. They will hold a news conference Wednesday at Dodger Stadium. "The Dodgers move for- ward with confidence in a strong- financial posi- tion as a premier Major League Baseball franchise and as an integral part of and representative of the Los Angeles community," according to a joint state- ment by McCourt and the new owners. Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig said he's pleased the sale is finished and the Dodgers can have a fresh start after the "unbecom- ing events of recent years." "It is my great hope and firm expectation that to- day's change in ownership marks the start of a new'era for the Los Angeles Dodg- ers and that this historic franchise will once again make the city of Los Ange- iles proud," Selig said. ond team all conference, including outfielders Chris Triplett and Sasha LaGarde, infielder Tyler Bocock, and catcher Lad- son Montgomery.

All he has to do is look at his scorecard from last year. After a record-setting performance at rain-soft- ened Congressional, the defending champion is counting on the U.S. Open to truly return to "golf's toughest test" on the San Francisco shoreline. Just listening to USGA execu- tive director Mike Davis explain the Lake Course's layout Monday from three time zones away made Mcllroy chuckle. "I feel like I just played a practice round listening to Mike," Mcllroy said on a conference call from Char- lotte, N.C., where he is playing in the Wells Fargo Championship this week. "I'm expecting this to be a tough and tricky test." So is everybody else. McIlroy finished at 16- under 268 last year in Bethesda, Md., where rains dampened the course and created conditions that befuddled USGA officials. Twenty players turned in scores under par; seven total finished under par in the previous six national championships. A repeat of those low numbers is unlikely.' At least that's the USGA's goal. When players tee off June 14 in the serene set- ting across the street from the Pacific Ocean, weather should be dry in Northern California aid the narrow fairways should be fast and fickle. That could turn an already demanding course known for its unleveled lies and tiny greens into a stress machine. "We are incredibly bull- ish on how good a test this is going to be," Davis said. "This is going to be a great shot-making course." The par-70, 7,170-yard course is 373 yards longer than the last time it hosted the national champion- ship in 1998 including the 670-yard 16th hole that will be the longest par 5 in the event's 112-year history. , Windy conditions and the threat of the city's fa- mous fog especially unpredictable along the coast also could make the thick, tree-lined course even trickier. Davis, who is adamant that the first six holes will "absolutely be the toughest start to a U.S. Open," still wants to re- ward well-executed shots while penalizing poor ones. "It will be a firm and fast golf course. Length will not be as much of an issue this year," Davis said. The only repeating Da- vis couldn't care about is the champion. That seems something he shouldn't worry about. Not since Curtis Strange in 1988-89 has there been a back-to-back U.S. Open winner. And Olympic, his- torically more famous for the legends who lost than those who won, figures to give McIlroy its latest run. A graveyard for champi- ons, Olympic has hosted the national champion- ship four times previously. It's where Jack Fleck, Billy Casper, Scott Simpson and Lee Janzen were crowned; the runner-ups those years were Ben Hogan, Ar- nold Palmer, Tom Watson and Payne Stewart. The world's new No. 1 promised that there was far more pressure to per- form a year ago than any- thing he will face enter- ing this season's second major. McIlroy's Master's melt- down in 2011 when he entered the final round ahead by four strokes and finished 10 strokes behind winner Charl Schwartzel after carding an 80 had everybody wondering how Boy Wonder would respond. After winning the U.S. Open in record fashion for his first major, life is far less stressful now for the 22-year-old from Northern Ireland. "It makes people view you a little differently," he said. "Maybe gives you a little more respect, you're sort of part of the club."

Mark Russell * TODAY'S CLUE: >1 senba 9 2012,by NEA, Inc., dist. by Universal Uclick 5-2 Dear Annie: Our daughter is 42 years old and divorced. For the past two years, she has been seeing "Matt." We accepted him and welcomed him at our numerous family gatherings. Several weeks ago, our daughter drank too much at a party and ended up in bed with another man. Needless to say, Matt became quite angry. But he went into a rampage. He threw bricks through her car windows, punched her in the eye and showed up at our doorstep to cuss her out. He also confronted her kids. We strongly advised her to end the re- lationship: But after Matt calmed down, he apologized, went for court-ordered counseling and now attends AA. So our daughter has started seeing him again. We totally disapprove of this relation- ship, but she has asked us to accept this guy again and welcome him to our family gatherings. We don't want him near us. It. sounds like Matt is trying to do the right thing, but we can't forget what happened. We worry about her constantly when she is with him, in case he loses his temper again. How should we handle this? CONCERNED PARENTS Dear Concerned: You don't have to ap- prove of Matt in order to have a rela- tionship with your daughter, and it is It does not require a particularly wise In realize that to defeat a four-spade contract defenders must take at least four tricks. would that thought have helped West it deal? He leads the diamond ace: five, two, What should he do next? South opened three spades to show a res able seven-card suit and 5-10 high-card p West made a borderline takeout double. I raised, hoping his partner was short ir monds. (Yes, three no-trump works here probably against the odds.) What does East's diamond two say? Th does not have a doubleton, when he woulc started an echo (high-low). If South has tw monds, can the second card disappear? Only in layouts where the contract canr defeated. Which four tricks must the defe get? One heart, one diamond and two clu one heart, two diamonds and one club. This means that it must be best to shift 1 club eight, high denying an honor. Horoscope TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Something rather excit- ing could happen if you visit places where you have a chance to make new contacts. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - If you continuously stay positive, an important situ- ation in which you're pres- ently involved will work out to your satisfaction, or perhaps even better than you thought possible. CANCER (June 21-July 22) - Rather than discussing something important over the telephone or even put- ting it to paper, you'll be much more effective going over the matter in person, if that's at all possible. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Financial trends are mov- ing in your favor, so if you have anything important monetarily that needs to be shared with others,.do so now. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - If at all possible, avoid people who 'always try to tell you what to do and how and when to do it.. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Your day won't count for much if you fail to be compassionate when a situation calls for it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Base your social ac- tivities around friends with whomyou're totally at ease. Pretentious people will put you in a negative mood. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23- Dec. 21) If you have re- sponsibilities dumped on your shoulders that affect others as much as they do you, take them very seriously. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -Your intuition regard- ing the outcome of events is likely to be right on the money. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Joint ventures should work out quite satisfacto- rily, provided nobody tries to rush things beyond their normal pace. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) It's best not to make any important decision that affects the entire fam- ily without first talking things over with them. ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Don't hesitate to take on something that is a bit be- yond what you normally handle. important that you stay in touch with her. It is not mandatory that you welcome Matt into your home, but please arrange to meet your daughter in other locations. If Matt abuses her again, she will need to know you are close by and available. There are men who have managed, through hard work and counseling, to find healthier ways to handle their anger. Please urge your daughter to contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline for information (thehotline.org), and to give Matt plenty of time to prove himself be- fore she becomes too entangled. Her life may depend on it. Dear Annie: Your advice to "Stepped On," whose volunteer organization suf- fers from a rude and abusive supervisor, left out an important option.'She and her colleagues should document instances of unacceptable behavior with details, dates and times, and present the facts in writing to the board, pointing out'how the behavior harms the organization by alienating both volunteers and potential donors. They also should document their efforts to get the supervisor to correct his behavior. They should be willing to sign their letter and be prepared to leave if no corrective action ensues.

Minus Dwight Howard, the Magic owned the un- derdog tag and successful- ly stole home-court advan- tage with a win in Game 1. Then the Pacers were able to brush off a woeful finish in that loss, regroup, and use all their personnel ad- vantages down the stretch to blow past the Magic in Game 2 on Monday. The question now is who has established their early postseason identity more as the series shifts to Or- lando on Wednesday for Game 3? "Obviously we want to go back home and play off the momentum of the crowd and just play better than we did (Monday)," Magic forward Ryan Anderson said after the 93-78 Game 2 loss. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Orlando Magic forward Glen Davis (left) grabs a rebound in front of Indiana Pacers forward Danny Granger on Monday. "We know that we can play better than this and play harder than this." While Anderson and the Magic are certainly hop- ing to get an energy boost from an Amway Center crowd still reeling after last season's first-round exit, conditioning will certainly be a factor for both teams with just one day to rest. Indiana trailed at the half for the second straight game before getting that boost in the second half that coach Frank Vogel said would be a necessity in this series. It came at a cost, though, with Pacers starters Danny Granger and David West both log- ging over 40 minutes. They averaged 33 and 29 minutes per game, respec- tively, during the regular season. Both teams took it easy Tuesday, with the Magic taking the day off and the Pacers holding only a light practice in Indianapolis before boarding a plane to Florida. After five games against each other this season, there doesn't seem to be a lot of mystery left to uncover. The strategy is the same as it was when the series began: The Magic need to shoot the ball well and run the floor to negate the Pacers' size advantage. Meanwhile, Indiana wants to resist the urge to get in a shootout with Orlando, while pounding the ball in- side and running the Mag- ic off the 3-point stripe. Game 2 was mission ac- complished for the Pacers, holding the Magic to just 8 for 25 from beyond the arc, and frustrating them inside with a 50-28 edge in points in the paint. In- diana also outrebounded Orlando 46-38. "It's all about who wants it more," Pacers guard Paul George said. "We look at it as a 50-50 ball and the man that wants that ball more is going to go after and go get it. We wanted to make sure we got as many 50-50 balls as we can." Granger had 18 points, but struggled to shoot the ball, going 7 for 21 from the field and just 1 for 10 from 3. The. bigger numbers, though, were what he did defending Orlando's Hedo Turkoglu. He was held to just 10 points, two assists and one rebound. . Anderson, who the Mag- ic are depending on to produce offensively with Howard out for the season following back surgery, went just 3 for 9 from the field. It followed an equally quiet five-point effort in Game 1 for the candidate for the NBA's most im- proved player award. Granger said their effort underneath starts with how West is playing. "They don't have an answer for David West in this series," Granger said. "We knew our bigs would be a huge advantage for us. We've just been riding that. When David gets going, it's hard to stop him." West hasn't been in the playoffs since 2009 with New Orleans, but Vogel said West's experience is a huge factor in his play to this point. For his career West is averaging 16 points and seven rebounds in the postseason. "He's providing our team with the necessary swag- ger to get a playoff win," Vogel said. "He's just dialed in. He is a playoff-tested veteran." Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said it's not so much the players who are scoring the Pacers' points, but how they are doing it. "We can't give up 22 fast- break points, 25 second- chance points and have 16 turnovers," he said. "I mean, it gets back to very basic things and we're not going to have a chance to win if we do that." Knicks' Stoudemire won't play Thursday The Associated Press NEW YORK Amare Stoudemire will miss Game 3 of the Knicks' playoff series against the Heat af- ter cutting his left hand, a person with knowledge of the situation said Tuesday. Stoudemire was injured after the Knicks' 104-84 loss in Miami on Monday when he punched the case surrounding a fire extinguisher. He left the arena with his arm in a sling and won't play on Thursday night, the person told The Associ- ated Press on condition of anonym- ity because the team hadn't provided an update. Stoudemire apologized on his Twitter account for the act, which leaves the Knicks without another key player as they try to rally from a 2-0 deficit. Jeremy Lin is still recov- ering from knee surgery and Iman Shumpert is out for the season after tear- ing a knee ligament in Game 1. Stoudemire's status for the remainder of the series is unknown Stoudemire and it is possible his difficult season has come to an end. He missed time in February after the death of his brother and again late in the season with a bulging disk in his back, and when he did play had his worst sta- tistical season since he was a rookie in 2002-03. The Knicks played well without him down the stretch by moving Carmelo Anthony to power forward, where he could take advantage of slower opponents. > But asking him to carry so much of the offense on his own is prob- ably too much against the Heat, who have posted a 5-0 record against the Knicks this season. Stoudemire scored 18 points in Game 2, though he didn't get into a good flow until the fourth quarter, when the Knicks could never seri- ously challenge the Heat. But any hope of carrying the momentum from his positive finish into Thurs- day's game at Madison Square Gar- den was lost during his walk back to the locker room. "We all have done thing out of an- ger that we regret," he wrote on his Twitter page. "That makes us human. Bad tim- ing on my part. Sorry guys. This (too) shall pass." Spurs' Popovich named COY The Associated Press SAN ANTONIO Gregg Popovich can't win like the old days. No longer can the San Antonio Spurs simply feed Tim Duncan the ball, let their defense do the rest and ride that game plan to NBA championships. But the new way Popov- ich has them winning isn't bad, either. That acknowledgment came Tuesday when Popo- vich was honored as the NBAs Coach of the Year af- ter leading San Antonio to 50 wins and the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. The Spurs defied naysayers who have written them off as too old since their last title in 2007 and did so in a lockout-shortened season that tested every coach when it came to managing minutes and finding prac- tice time. "If you can draft David Robinson and follow that up with Tim Duncan, that's a couple of decades of very, very possible success unless you just screw it up," Popovich said. "So it's hard to take credit when circumstances have gone your way so consistently." Popovich also won the award in 2003 when San Antonio won its second of' four championships, and he might be headed for a fifth ring if the Spurs keep this up. They're doing it partly thanks to a support- ing cast of rookies and for- mer NBA no-names that Popovich has turned into a surprise frontrunner. He whipped them into winners quickly. After a bumpy 12-9 start, the Spurs lost just seven more games the rest of the season. "Pop has done a terrific job molding a mix of expe- rience and inexperience," Spurs general manager R.C. Buford said. Popovich received 77 first-place votes. Chicago coach Tom Thibodeau was Second (27), Indiana coach Frank Vogel was third (7) and Memphis coach Lio- nel Hollins was fourth (6). Boston's Doc Rivers and Denver's George Karl each received a vote. The Spurs practiced Tuesday before the NBA made the afternoon an- nouncement, All-Star Tony Parker, who might be hav- ing the most complete season of his career, later tweeted congratulations to the only NBA coach he's ever known. Not that Popovich, one of the NBA's most famous- ly mercurial and colorful coaches for 16 seasons, is likely to be found on social media.
