Starting Thursday, in what law- makers dubbed “Freedom Week,” people will receive sales-tax breaks when they make a wide range of purchases that could spur them to be more active after being limited by the coronavirus pandemic. Shoppers from Thursday through July 7 will be able to avoid paying all or part of sales taxes on purchases such as grills; bicycles; fishing and camping gear; kayaks and canoes; tickets for concerts, movies and ball games; gym mem- berships; and even sunscreen. “What better way to cele- brate than to offer a sales-tax JOHN CLARE STOKES/Special to the Reporter holiday that will encourage peo- A bald eagle takes flight from a dead pine tree near the dock at Watertown Lake on Saturday, but not before local photographer ple to explore our greatest asset John Clare Stokes was able to get a shot of the majestic bird’s departure. — Florida’s outdoors,” House Speaker Chris Sprowls said in a statement last month when Gov.

ANOTHER OPINION MLB rightly cracking down on cheating he U.S. doesn’t have an official national sport, but it does have a national pastime. Baseball may not draw Tthe raw numbers that football does anymore, but its historical significance and cultural value still give it a hal- lowed place among this country’s recreational offerings. It’s a more relaxed sport than the crushing tackles of football or the fistfighting of hockey, both more primal, physical affairs. The rules of Major League Baseball evolve at a similarly leisurely pace and, on June 21, MLB began cracking down hard on a traditionally ignored form of cheating: grip enhancers by pitchers. Pitchers have for decades used various foreign sub- stances to give them a firmer grasp on the ball, ranging from sunscreen and Spider Tack to pine tar or even home- made concoctions. The substances can allow pitchers to alter the spin rate of the ball to make it harder to hit. The league had long turned a blind eye to such cheat- ing — and yes, even though it’s somewhat traditional, it’s against MLB rules to apply foreign substances to the ball. Now, pitchers found in violation of the rules will face immediate ejections and 10-game suspensions with pay.
