Offi cers responded to a call at 12:12 p.m. indicating a man had been stabbed in the neck. He was found in the shower, and paramedics brought him to Shands at UF, Maj. Brad Barber said. Barber added he could not com- ment on the condition of the student, whose name was not released due to the sensitivity of the circumstance. Offi cers originally believed someone attacked the stu- dent, but after interviews with people at the scene, UPD concluded he tried to take his own life, Barber said. The department doesn’t expect to fi le any criminal charges. One student said when he went to take a shower around 10 a.m. Wednesday, the bathroom fl oor was fl ooded when he walked in and another shower was run- ning. When he later left the bathroom, the water was still running, but he merely thought it odd, not dangerous. Rachel Crosby / Alligator He did not look in the stall.

How am I supposed to make sense of Traditional Chinese bookbinding, and what the hell is an Initial? Containers are a mystery to me. And what about A Post box, and what on earth is The Hollow Nickel Case? An Ammunition box – dunno. Couldn’t tell you. I’m not well-versed in Postal systems. And I don’t know what Bulk mail is or what is supposed to be special about A Catcher pouch. I don’t know what people mean by ‘Bags’. What’s the deal with The Arhuaca mochila, and what is the mystery about A Bin bag? Am I supposed to be familiar with A Carpet bag? How should I know? Cradleboard? Come again? Never heard of it. I have no idea. A Changing bag – never heard of it. I’ve never heard of Carriages. A Dogcart – what does that mean? A Ralli car? Doesn’t ring a bell. I have absolutely no idea.

As you strive to further stimulate the U.S. economy, we want to call your attention to an important bipartisan and widely supported effort aimed at promoting physical fitness as a form of low-cost preventative health care. Since the pandemic, the fitness industry was the first to shutter its doors and continues to be repeatedly forced to close when additional coronavirus surges spike. Youth sports, health clubs, fitness studios and much of outdoor recreation were early casualties of the economic shutdown and stay-at-home orders. Under the circumstances, many of these businesses and organizations are struggling to survive in an ever-changing COVID landscape. While all are working to re- engineer service lines the economic aftershocks will be daunting for years to come. Ironically, the active population has far better prognoses and are at lower risk of experiencing the more severe symptoms of COVID-19 than the inactive population. With the additional strain COVID-19 has placed on our healthcare system, it is critical to promote health and physical activity; and without the active lifestyle industry, the American population will suffer.

By James Middleton For decades the Grange Organizations of Boone County have managed and staged the largest entertainment and educational event in the county and region, the Boone County Fair. Every year the Grange Organizations have also invested thousands of dollars and, over the years, millions of dollars into expanding, improving and modernizing the Boone County Fairgrounds and buildings. Today, the Boone County Fairgrounds are a state of the art venue in terms of the modernization and the conveniences that have been erected. The Grange Organizations of Boone County have made these improvements every year with an eye to providing the best venue for people of all ages to enjoy the Fair. In 2016, the improvements continued to be executed and Fairgoers will appreciate what has been done. A major investment was made to improve the lighting at the fairgrounds with the installation of new lighting pedestals and lights along the main midway. This route moves from the main gate entrance east to the grandstand area. Those who were involved in the planning and the execution of the improvements indicated that the cost for this improvement was substantial. In addition to the installation of the new pedestals, water lines and underground electrical lines were replaced.
