District attorney: 14-year-old boy drowns in Fall River pond FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) — A 14-year-old boy has drowned in a pond in Fall River. The Bristol district attor- ney described the death of Eddiel Benitez in Tuesday as an “accidental drowning.” The Herald News reports that Benitez was pronounced dead around 4 p.m. after he was pulled from South Watuppa Pond and paramed- ics attempted to revive him. Authorities say the boy and a 13-year-old friend jumped into the pond from a ledge and “were immediately showing signs of distress as soon as they entered the water.” A group of bystanders pulled the 13-year-old girl to safety but were unable to res- cue the boy after he went under the water.

I have come to the conclusion that people are idiots. During Tuesday’s rain storm I was at work watching people drive very fast through standing water, some of them even on their phones. God I hope these people have not had children as I’d hate to see that gene pool continue. Weather forecasters had been saying we would be getting torrential rains in short batches but that didn’t stop people from going out.

Besides a night of bowling, the event will also feature several rattle items. For $20, people will have five tickets to choose from prizes like Red Sox tickets, two rounds of golf, and more. For $10, individuals can receive five tickets to select prizes that includes a $40 gift card from Olive Garden, a camping bas- ket, alcohol baskets, a gift certificate for Express Pedicure, and much more. According to Naro, he pointed out that the event generated around $500 last year and hopes more money can be raised this year. “It’s just great to be able to give something,” said Naro. “Everyone walks away really happy.”

I’m thinking one of two things happened. Either a check or cash was included and fell out or was taken out or nothing was enclosed and the envelope was mailed without being sealed well. My quandary is whether I should mention something to the On The Tube senders or not. If they did enclose something, they would want to know that it was missing when it arrived, but if they didn’t, I don’t want to make them feel uncomfortable by mentioning it. What is the best way to handle this type of situation? -- Grateful for Love From Family and Friends Dear Grateful: Before I answer your question, I want to tell you how much I love your signature. Gratitude is one of the best life skills that anyone can cultivate, and the fact that you are feeling gratitude for two of the most important things in the world -- your family and your friends -- is excellent. As for the card in question, your thoughts make perfect sense. If my check were taken or I didn’t seal my envelope, I would want my friend to tell me. Thank your longtime friends for the card, and explain to them the way the envelope arrived -- that it looked as if someone tampered with it. Dear Annie: How happy I was to see my name, Janie, in print in your column. The writer to you was frustrated when people misspelled or mispronounced her given name, so she chose the nickname Janie. Then she couldn’t win, as people got that wrong, too, calling her Jane. No one can better relate to her anger than I can, for in my many years, I have had to live with some people insisting on calling me Jane. It so happens that I’m proud of my name. Some years ago, a second cousin whom I’d never met surprised me with a letter say- ing she had found my name and address in her mother’s address book and she wanted me to know we have the same name. Thus began a correspondence between us. When she and her husband did a lot of traveling last summer, they went out of their way to come to Shreveport, Louisiana, to meet me and spend the day with me. Our names brought us together, she being named for her grandmother, who was my great-aunt. A niece named after me visits often. When we’re out and about, we attract attention by calling each other Janie. I’m not always proud of myself, but I stay proud of my full name. -- Janie Griffith Dear Janie Griffith: It sounds as though you have a lot to be In this Nov. 10, 2015 file photo, Bruce Springsteen performs at the 9th Annual Stand Up For Heroes event in New York. proud of, for your sibling to have named a daughter after you.

Two episodes that also stand out are with Shepard’s mother, Laura Labo, and actress Erika Christensen. Labo has had an interesting life and was candid about overcoming toxic and abusive past relationships and with loss, after the recent death of her husband. Shepard managed to keep the conversation moving but not interject too many of his own memories into Labo’s story, which would be easy to do since he was there for much of it. Christensen and Shepard played siblings for six seasons on NBC’s “Parenthood.” Besides a familiar rapport, the two had a respectful conversation about Scientology (she is a mem- ber). “There’s so many topics in our culture that seem to be binary where you have to pick one side or the other and Scientology certainly seems to be one of those,” said Shepard. “I’ve certainly heard the side (against it), so I think it’s required of me to hear the other perspective.” In his podcast, Shepard frequently refers to his own addic- tion to drugs and alcohol (he’s now in recovery) and says “to create some equanimity, it’s required of me to share something that’s very vulnerable” to get others to feel they can do the same.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You might wonder if it would be best to stay close to home, or retreat out of the limelight. You have a lot of work to accomplish. Though a lot of what you are doing could be tedious, you will do what must be done by the end of the day. Tonight: Let your hair down. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Stay centered, despite some confu- sion around you. You might not know which way to go but know that you will figure it out.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You perk up later in the day. Someone confides in you about how he or she feels. You could be hearing quite a story about an invest- ment that you are considering.

You will have more energy in the morning, and can deal with difficult situations. A disagree- ment exists between you and others. You might find it impossible to come to an agreement at this point in time. Tonight: Not to be found. ANDY CAPP Mahoney, Goldsmith and Garnett CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Reach out to someone who is an expert on a topic that you are interested in.
