State Farm
stops taking
Calif. clients
BY ANUMITA KAUR

State Farm has stopped accept-

ing homeowner insurance applica-
tions in California, where it had
been a leading home insurance
provider, due to the increased risk
of catastrophes like wildfires and
high construction costs.
The decision, which won’t im-
pact current customers, went into
effect Saturday and signals the
growing threats to insurance avail-
ability and affordability in the face
of climate crisis-fueled disasters,
experts told The Washington Post.
“State Farm General Insurance
Company made this decision due
to historic increases in construc-
tion costs outpacing inflation, rap-
idly growing catastrophe expo-
sure, and a challenging reinsur-
ance market,” the company said in
a statement. “It’s necessary to take
these actions now to improve the
company’s financial strength. We
will continue to evaluate our ap-
proach based on changing market
conditions.”
The company said it recognized
the state government’s wildfire
loss mitigation efforts, and
pledged to “work constructively”
with the California Department of
Insurance and policymakers “to
help build market capacity in Cali-
fornia. However, it’s necessary to
take these actions now to improve
the company’s financial strength.”
State Farm did not respond to a
request for comment.

Severe drought forces desperate measures in Uruguay
With main reservoir nearly depleted, state water company starts adding saltwater to public drinking supply, leading to unhealthy sodium levels in tap water
BY L UCIEN C HAUVIN,

MONTEVIDEO, uruguay —
When the headaches began,
María Sosa thought back to
breakfast a few days earlier.
She had been boiling eggs in
their kitchen. Her husband,
drinking water, asked if she
thought it tasted off.
“A looked at the pot and it was
white, tainted with salt,” said
Sosa, 62. “I knew right there: This
was going to be a problem.”
Uruguay, beset by high temper-
atures and drought, is running
out of freshwater. Montevideo,
the capital, is down to just a few
days’ supply.
This small, affluent South
American nation is not alone in
its suffering. Historically hot, dry
conditions are harming crops and
shaking economies across the
Southern Cone. Amid global cli-
mate change, the region is warm-
ing more rapidly than the rest of
the world. Precipitation during
the last four months of 2022 fell
to half the average, the lowest
level in 35 years.
Andean glaciers have lost more
than 30 percent of their area
since the 1980s, according to the
U.N. World Meteorological Or-
ganization. Central Chile is
13 years into its longest drought
in at least a millennium. Argenti-
na’s agricultural exports are ex-
pected to fall by 28 percent in
2023.
But in Uruguay, extreme
weather has pushed authorities
to an extreme response.

Economy & Business

As retailers face head winds, some fly out to the suburbs
Companies try to hold on in urban centers despite organized shoplifting, declining foot traffic after the pandemic and rapidly rising labor and rent prices
BY J ACLYN P EISER

Keith Redmond wasn’t

thrilled when Giant Food closed
one of the entrances to its super-
market in Bowie, Md., because it
created a longer walk to the
pharmacy for his elderly father.
So when Redmond spotted
company president Ira Kress
walking past oranges in the pro-
duce section recently, he made a
point of politely voicing his con-
cerns for his father. “He’s got
mobility issues,” said Redmond,
who recognized Kress from his
photo on signs around the store.
“From a customer’s point of view,
it’s frustrating.”
Kress would rather not make it
harder for shoppers to enter the
supermarkets he oversees, but
closing the entrance is worth it,
he said, because it creates more
obstacles for shoplifters and al-
lows for fewer guards. It’s one
way the regional grocery chain is
trying to confront a trend report-
ed by retailers across the coun-
try: rampant and pervasive theft.
Crime isn’t the only problem
retailers face right now. There’s
also decreased foot traffic in
urban centers and inflation-re-
lated issues such as higher labor
and real estate costs. Combined,
these forces are leading some of
the country’s largest companies
to take a hard look at underper-
forming markets, and in some
cases, close stores.
But shoplifting is high on
Kress’s mind these days.
“To say [theft has] risen ten-
fold in the last five years would
not be an understatement,” Kress
said, noting that violence has
also “increased exponentially.”

solutions to problems with the
world’s food supply.

issues — including disaster relief
— has long been a major focus.

C y the Cynic is a bach-

elor — confirmed, he
says, at an early age. Wendy,
my club’s feminist, defines
a bachelor as a man who
missed his chance to make
some woman miserable.
“So she has a low opinion
of men,” Cy said, displaying
today’s deal. “You wouldn’t
have thought so after the
way she defended here.” RHYMES WITH ORANGE HILARY PRICE MARK TRAIL JULES RIVERA
In a penny game, Wendy
led the queen of hearts
against four spades. Cy won
and shifted to the jack of
clubs: deuce, eight, queen.
South led a trump to his
hand and tried a diamond to
dummy’s queen, winning.
“He next led a second
trump,” the Cynic told me,
“and Wendy clung to her king
of diamonds like he was the LIO MARK TATULLI MOTHER GOOSE & GRIMM MIKE PETERS
man of her dreams.”
South led a second dia-
mond, and when Wendy
played the king, dummy
played low. Wendy could only
cash her ace of clubs.
“She should pitch her king
of diamonds on the second
trump,” Cy said. “I’ll get in
with the jack for another club
lead, and South goes down.”
“Wendy goofed,” I said.

Nurse is set
to become
new coach
of the 76ers
BY B EN G OLLIVER

The Philadelphia 76ers agreed

to hire Nick Nurse as coach, a
person with knowledge of the
situation confirmed monday.
Philadelphia moved quickly to re-
place Doc Rivers, who was fired
this month after a second-round
playoff exit.
Nurse, 55, arrives in Philadel-
phia after compiling a 227-163
(.582) record over five seasons
with the Toronto Raptors. The
Iowa native, who spent five years
as a Toronto assistant before as-
suming the top job in 2018, led the
Raptors to the 2019 title but was
fired last month after his team
missed the playoffs for the second
time in three seasons. ESPN first
reported Nurse’s agreement with
the 76ers.
much like Rivers before him,
Nurse will be tasked with deliver-
ing the 76ers’ first Eastern Confer-
ence finals appearance since
2001, when they lost in the NBA
finals. Aside from centerpiece
Joel Embiid, the reigning mVP,
the makeup of Philadelphia’s ros-
ter remains in flux as star guard
James Harden heads for free
agency.
Nurse is considered a creative
tactician with a strong personal-
ity, and he lifted the Raptors to
championship heights after the
franchise seemingly hit the wall
in the playoffs under previous
coach Dwane Casey. As Toronto’s
retooling effort unfolded follow-
ing the title, Nurse began to lean
heavily on his veteran starters in
the regular season and the play-
offs. That approach could be diffi-

Birds appear to be a specific source of

steel wire fence. When the ball hit the barrier it kept
shaking. Beginners learn heading by starting with
an underinflated soccer ball, or a foam ball. This
helps the child overcome their natural inherent fear
of hitting their head. Soccer balls Size 4 (medium
size) are for ages 8-11, and larger size 5 balls are
for ages 12 and above. At practice the ball is tossed
lightly to build the child’s confidence, remembering
to keep practice sessions short to prevent
headaches. Heading is often limited to children
over age 11. Those 11-13 year old are limited to a few
headers per day with no more than 30 minutes
of heading practice a day. They average about 12
headings per game. Some coaches recommend no
parent or friend should ever teach heading or throw
at the child’s head” and also state that “heading is
not inherently dangerous and is actually fun and
makes the game most appealing”. I don’t agree. In
practice sessions children hit the ball back-and-
