It's the dry season and, to ensure that there is enough water for everyone, the City of LaBelle is asking its customers to please conserve water. A seasonal lack of signifi- cant rain and ever-increasing demand for water combine to make this a problem. Resi- dents are asked to use com- mon sense conservation measures: confine watering yards to early morning and early evening, wvash vehicles less often, take shorter show- ers, in general, don't waste this precious commodity. Even if you have a well for outdoor purposes, please help conserve, as all our water comes from the same place. These conservation meas- ures are voluntary at present. However, if the water table does not rise sufficiently, the city may be forced to pass a conservation ordinance.

Volunteers in bright yellow shirts continue to canvas Hendry/Glades neighborhoods even six months after Hurricane Wilma hit this area, leaving over 600 homes in Hendry uninhabit- able. In Glades, some 35 homes were destroyed and 169 sustained substantial damage. Wilma also left her mark on those who suffered less damage. Serious damage is a relative thing. Losing some shingles off a roof may be a minor setback to one person; a catastrophe to another. Many people are not used to ask- ing for help or just don't know where to get the answers they need to get their life back to where it was before Wilma. Navigating through FEMA regulations is a challenge in itself. So Project H.O.P.E. is there. Federal funding comes through the Florida Department of Children and Families to support the program. The Project H.O.P.E. folks are here to provide support in any way they can. They are sup- porting CREW, which is doing damage assessments. CREW was created to bring the community together, to act in tan- dem providing services to resi- dents affected by recent hurri- canes.

The question is: howV will you spend those "golden- years?" Of course, your family should remain your main sup- port system, but we all need other friends and contacts as well the need for intercon- necting links of friends our own age do not grow less with time. However, in this fast moving world, there may be fewer opportunities for some seniors to meet and spend time with their peer group. When that happens, Senior Connection can provide sen- iors' lives with a boost provid- ed by being with special friends. There are lots of opportuni- ties at Senior Connections to hook up with folks to make new\ friends. Every day congre- gate meals are served and delivered to the homebound.

Get the idea? Something for everyone! If you just want to help out on week- ends, there is a need for that, See Seniors Page 2 By Patty Brant The second time around the LaBelle City Commission approved a special exception to place a mobile Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) unit in the parking lot at Dr. Kyle Studley's office, 45 Bryan Ave. Hendry Diagnostic Imag- ing Center has a similar unit in Clewiston and wants to expand its service to LaBelle. The request was made at the March 9 city commission meeting. According to Victor Basile of the LaBelle MRI Center, the company would work to make the trailer housing the unit aesthetically fit the sur- roundings and meet the city's cdde: He brdtight photos of the company's other mobile MRI units in various locations including Clewiston, Fort Myers and Dade County. He said Dr. Forbes is the medical director at the Clewis- ton facility and that Dr. Geke would serve in the same capacity at the LaBelle facility. The equipment itself is two years old, Mr. Basile said, and will have new software to make it state-of-the-art. The board had previously turned down the request, cit- ing questions about whether it would lit into the stricter zon- ing codes the city has been working on for the past sever- al years.

There is See Speed Page 2 'MacArthur' is emotional ride It was another opening night for the Firehouse Cultural Center and emcee Linda Reecer warned the audience that this play would be differ- ent. She was so right. Pauline MacDougal's play Waiting for MacArthur delves into the depths of the life shat- tering, world altering experi- ence of World War II. Annie Lou, an American nurse played impeccably by Janice Groves, is stationed at Corregidor in the months lead- ing up to World War II. As the Japanese tighten their grip on the South Pacific this All-Amer- ican hometown girl reflects her mounting tension and growing horror as the reality of war bears down ever harder on her, the other nurses and the troops they're charged with caring for. With second .generation patriotism and a dash of adventurous bravado, Annie Lou enlists in the Army Nurse Corps. The play almost entirely consists of just four actors vocalizing the letters they send to and receive from Annie Lou - letters that become increas- ingly full of uncertainty, stoic acceptance, then fear and loathing at the hellish night- mare Annie Lou's life has become; then finally near panic visualizing the impend- ing doom that surely awaited them all. Ms. Groves never misses a beat in conveying the escalat- ing tension and emotion as she guides her audience through Annie Lou's emotional and physical hell. She makes the audience feel Annie Lou's despair as she goes through emotional upheavals, strug- gling with fear and duty. Newcomer Martha Taylor's performance as Annie Lou's Pollyana friend, Rosalie, hit all the right chords, her self-cen- tered innocence exasperating her friend from around the world. She faithfully represent- See Play Page 2 Janice Groves puts her all Into playing Annie Lou, an idealistic young nurse cornered with American forces on Corregidor dur- ing World War II.

The sheriff was lending his voice to several letters he presented to the board urging the action. In addition to the sheriff's office, letters came from the LaBelle City Commission, Joe Shivers, Aqua Isles residents and the Seniors Continued From Page 1 too. Nancy was born and raised in Clewiston, and graduated from LaBelle High School in 1991. She said that working at the senior center has "opened my eyes." Until going to work there she really had no idea what went on there. Now, she feels, she's found a second home that fos- ters mutual respect, self respect, reassurance and love for a popu- lation that has provided a life- time of those qualities to their families and communities. She has no words for what the clients give her, but the end result is that she feels part of their family. Her ultimate goal is to have the rec center open 8-5 M-F. She's hoping anyone with ideas on possible activities for the clients, or who has some time and talent to volunteer will call her at 675-1446. She oversees activities at the LaBelle, Clewis- ton, Buckhead Ridge and Moore Haven facilities. As always volunteers are in high demand, especially bilin- gual volunteers. The center is a great place for any senior to go for the compan- ionship and activities, but for some it's a lifeline to important services like case management, nutrition education and nutrition counseling, outreach to other services, personal care, home- Play Continued From Page 1 ed the passing of the old "sane" world and the explosive entrance of the new. Throughout the play, Mama's letters continued to lack the understanding and closeness Annie Lou had always craved but that her mother was never able to give. As Mama, Eloise Dagner imbued her character with a cold veneer that, by the end of the play Annie Lou and the audience finally begin to understand. : . It is her old English teacher, Margaret, who becomes Annie Lou's lifeline to the "real" world the one without bombs drop- ping, blood-smeared bodies and cold lifeless eyes; the one where fear is not a palpable part of the CHIP transportation group. Copies went to FDOT, District 77 Florida House of Representatives Depise Grimsley and District 27 Florida Senator Dave Aronberg. The speed limit through town fluctuates from 35 i.p.h. to 40, 45 and 50 m.p.h. and the sheriff was asking for a seamless 35 m.p.h. limit from Miller on the westto Clark on the east. There are three stop lights on SR 80 and sometimes heavy traf- fic. The sheriff told the commis- sioners it's difficult for heavy sand trucks (some 600 per day, he said) and semis to stop while maker and respite care, screen- ing and assessment, transporta- tion and a lot more, according to Senior Connections of South- west Florida, Inc., Executive Director Christine Nolan. Christine explained that the enhanced dining project lunch now provides extra protein that seniors can choose from a list. Senior Connections of South- west Florida, Inc., is a very busy group, with sites all around the area: LaBelle, Immokalee, Clewiston, Moore Haven, Buck- head Ridge, Naples, Everglades City and Our Place II. Christine points out that during 2005 all the Senior Connection centers served an impressive number of people: 105,870 meals were handed out: 13,097 in LaBelle; 48,007 in Immokalee; 12,036 in Moore Haven; 6,623 in Buck- head Ridge; 11,208 in Clewiston; the rest at Everglades City, Naples, Our Place II. Taken as a whole, in 2005 the organization provided 1,433 hours of case management, 4,714 units of transportation, 7,770 hours of homemaker, per- sonal care and respite services and 1,575 hours of counseling, education and support services. Christine also noted that this is the 30th anniversary of Senior Connections, which came to Hendry/Glades in 1980 as Tri County Senior Services. Although the agency is very active, it seems to be "invisible" and people don't realize what's there. daily rQutine; where you're forced to question everything in- and outside yourself. In helping Annie Lou find the courage to bear the unbearable, Margaret finds a new light and a new path for herself. Sue Elser's perform- ance as Margaret provides just the right introspective counter- point to Annie Lou's panic and mounting desperation. This is the final weekend for Waiting for MacArthur. The play runs Thursday, Friday and Satur- day, March 23-25. It begins at 7 p.m. at the Firehouse Cultural Center, 241 N. Bridge Street. Tickets are $10 with reserva- tions, $12 at the door. To make reservations, please call 863-675- 3066.

The motion to send a letter to FDOT supporting the speed limit reduction was made by Com- missioner Janet Taylor and sec- onded by Commissioner Kevin McCarthy. It passed, 4-1, with Commissioner Bill Maddox cast- ing the lone dissenting vote. He said he had no problem with the speed limit as it is. Commission- er McCarthy voted for the motion, but also said documen- tation should be included in the letter. The potential number of clients is staggering. Christine sticks off statistics: In Glades County, with a population of 10,576; 16 percent is 65 or older; 31.5 minority; and 18 percent live below the poverty level. Hendry County has a population of 36,410; 11 percent is 65 or older; 56 percent minority; 24 percent live below the poverty level. For all that, Senior Connec- tions is the only agency here that specializes in elder care; it's the only safety net for many. Christine is also looking for- ward to doing special projects like an Alzheimer's prevention pilot project. She said this area will provide a rural perspective to this endeavor. Again, the num- bers are huge: Collier population 97,000; 10,360 have Alzheimer's undiagnosed; Hendry County 545 undiagnosed; GladesiCounty 247 undiagnosed She pointed out that roughly ten percent 'of the population over 60 is undiagnosed with Alzheimer's. . She's looking to'capitalize on a potential.incr"ease services with additional funding and is working on grants to make it happen: After a lifetime of self reliance, many seniors find it hard to ask family for help, but the senior center is set up to make it possible for them to enjoy and maintain a healthy, independent lifestyle. Two injured in hunting accident Thursday, March 9, Florida Wildlife investigators and officers investigated a hunting accident that occurred on the Lykes Brothers property. Three individuals had been turkey hunting when one of the men saw and shot at some "move- ment." The shot hit both of his hunting partners. One individual sustained multiple hits that did not penetrate his clothing. The other individual was driven to the hospital in Lake Placid for treatment of four pellets that penetrated his skin - three in the face and one in the hand. One of the pellets had lodged behind his left eye and the individual was later taken to the Bascom-Palmer Eye Institute in Miami. Both the shooter and the vic- tim were on their first turkey hunt. Hope Continued From Page 1 seems to be an overwhelming problem just requires a fresh out- look. For instance, Project H.O.P.E. found one woman whose home who was devastated that she was missed by the Blue Roof program. She just did not know what to do and could find no help anywhere she turned till a Project H.O.P.E. worker asked if she'd contacted her insurance company. In her despair, the woman had complete- ly overlooked the obvious answer. She made the call and by the next day her tears were joyful. Angela Pena is Project H.O.P.E.'s Community Liaison and Maribel Madrid is the Team Leader for Hendry/Glades. Angela is a Moore Haven resident. She said the program is helping in many differ- ent ways, like improving people's health by relieving stress. Maribel, a LaBelle resident, added that there are many residents whose homes still need repairs. Some folks have bought the supplies they need,.but now they need the labor. Project H.O.P.E. worked with other groups as well. The Commu- City Continued From Page 1 would enhance living in LaBelle. The board unanimously voted to approve it. Mr. Basile promised to work with the city's design standards. Arcade on hold K.C. Stanley-Lynn, president of Old Oaks Entertainment of LaBelle, asked for a license to operate an amusement arcade at 140 Jaycee/Lions Blvd., the old Lions Club. Ms. Stanley-Lynn told the board that the arcade would be geared toward older adults in particular and would be alcohol free. Players would use their skills to earn points or tickets which would Ihen be exchanged for prizes such as coupons, local merchant gift cards and other non-cash awards. The commission asked Ms. Lynn to go to the code review .board since there is currently no provision in the city code for such a business. She will return to the board for a hearing at the April 13 meeting. nity Rebuilding Ecumenical Work- force (CREW) of Hendry and Glades counties is also seeking vol- unteers to assist residents with repairs and continued clean up efforts in the aftermath of Hurri- cane Wilma.

QUESTION: Dear Hope: My husband and 1 are trying to decide whether we should go ahead and sell our home now or sometime in the near future. I keep hearing that the mar- ket is slowly but surely, not moving as quickly. How will this affect the sale of our home?

Make sure that your Realtor has a superior knowledge of current statistical data, including days on market, showing rates, supply of inventory, etc. Your Realtor should always keep you informed about the latest articles about the economy, provide new'CMAs more often, and carefully handle emotional objections by using facts, data, and logic. Every seller needs to know what's going on with the sale of their home, and they have more of a need to hear it from the listing agent on a consistent basis. Pricing strategies must be adjusted: For exam- ple, in a sellers' market, always price a home above the last sale, and in a buyers' market, below the last'sale. So, to thoroughly answer your ques- tion, Batwoman, you will need to find a competent and qualified Realtor to fully understand your posi- tioning as a seller in a market that is slowly but surely, slowing down in regards to residential homes, lots, &/or acreage. Basically, If you aren't zoned commercial and/or industrial and.you decide it is time to sell, you can bet you will be defining the.market as it becomes more realistic and more buyer friendly Sincerely, Hopefidl Please contact an agent at Sodthern Land Real Estate to begin your interviewing process.

I have tried and tried to find one for my two horses. I know other people who can't get a hold of one either! This is an agriculture town and I can't believe we don't have at least two of them here. Thank You Every reunion gets better The LaBelle High School Reunion was held at Maple Cor- ner Club House this last Saturday. Everyone had a great time. There were 89 attending. We had a teacher that taught P.E. in 1951- 52. She was Norma Jean Eurton and now lives in Tennessee. We were glad to see her again. Also, we had another teacher that is a regular, Coach Glen and Virginia Hollingsworth. It is always good to have our teachers attending. They can keep us in order as they did at school! We want h to thank Mr. Layton and his wife for allowing us to use the Club House and also the Muse Fire Department for the use of the tables and chairs. Without these it would not have been possible to have the celebration. Alsc, I would like to thank all others that helped in riumerous way\s. Every- one contributes to the fun we *have. We are already looking for- ward to next year. This was the 17th reunion we have'had and each one better! Thankyou-all, FriedaBullington Poppy drive helpers appreciated I was the head of the American Legion Auxiliary 2006 Poppy drive that took place on Feb. 11 and 12. I would like to give sincere thanks to all the volunteers who gave two hours of their valuable time, with a special thanks to Bob and Pat Hashman and Bill and Letters to the Golf carts on the roadways I would like to respond to Ms. Meister's article from"last week with the large title "No Golf Carts on Roadways," which evidently is to promote her belief that they do not belong on the street. Interestingly, the article with the large caption about golf carts was placed directly under. one about a fatal motorcycle acci- dent. There have been several motorcycle accidents recently invoking severe injuries or death I have nothing against motorcycling, it probably is great fun, but dangerous, and I would like to point out that they are per- fectly legal on the roadways. From what I understand a stray dog '(not legal) caused the acci- dent. Also legal are bicycles and even motorized wheel chairs. As with motorcycles, there also are statutes regarding their opera- tion on the roadways. The wheelchairs, called "electric per- sonal assistive mobility devices" are legal on streets posted 25m.p.h. and even legal to cross a street of a higher speed limit at Diane Davis who did two hours on Friday and again on Saturday. Special thanks to Bob Mims who stepped in for a no-show on short notice. Last but-certainly not least our heart felt thanks to Carl Pretz who stood in for three no-shows plus did3' 1/2 hours at the Friday night fish fry. Barbara Cochran Help with Alzheimer's No longer able to care for my husband who suffers from the dreaded Alzheimer's disease. I placed him at Oakbrook of LaBelle. I cannot say enough about,the wonderful care he has received. Everyone has been kind, caring and verN professional both Jim and myself. I would like to mention all the ,staff by name, but I'm .sure I would leave someone out, so to you ladies in the kitchen, what a great job you're doing. Those who feed the residents that are 'unable to. feed themselves, you take your time and seeothat every- one has their fill. Thank yo'u! The nurses, C.N.A.s, activity department"and all of you that give of yourselves are very special people. Thank you! The office staff has been there to assist and comfort me. Thank you, ladies; you made the transition much. easier. I encourage anyone to stop ini and visit. The residents love com- pany. We here in LaBelle are very fortunate to have this facility. Thankyou, everyone, DeeHill Editor an intersection. So what is the big deal about golf carts? Could it be more Who i driving them than the vehicle itself' The city commissioners could write an ordinance making golf carts legal on the village streets. It is my understanding that three of the five (city commissioners) own one and I have personally seen two of the three being driv- en on the streets. Commission- ers, why don't you write the ordi- nance that would allow this harmless bit of enjoyment to be legal? I. know that law enforcement cannot possibly see every.traffic violation that occurs, but would- n't it be good if parents would take notice of how their children are driving and forbid them the use of a car until they show some responsibility? I would think the same thing would apply to children on golf carts. They are not toys-they are vehi- cles. There is a.proper and an improper way to operate any ,device you could name and I believe this fact should be most notable. Elsie Voorheis Find tax relief: Set up a foundation Financial Tips For those of you who are finan- cially blessed with large estates, be it land holdings, a business, an investment portfolio or whatever, here is an idea you probably never thought about. Set up your own foundation. When people hear about foundations, they think of big names like Rockefeller, Ford, Mel- lon or Dupont, but in the United States there are literally thousands of different foundations. Because foundations give away money or donations, you may believe that setting up a foundation means just being philanthropic and handing over everything you own to strangers. Well, not all founda- tions are quite so benevolent. First of all, when doing your- estate planning, take advantage of voul personal-exemption; marital deduction, bequests, charitable deductions and maximize your discounts (something 1 may dis- cuss in a later column) and use. other techniques to reduce your estate tax liability. After doing all of that, you can consider a foun- dation for the following reasons. You can move a very large taxable instructions, i.e. your cash-pro- ducing farm may still be a cash- prodtucing farm. Foundations have many differ- ent classifications that have pretty, much something for everyone. The classifications include civic, religious, institutional, profession- al, medical, community and spe- cial-object and family. The object is to choose how future distribu- tions will be made, so that you will know the money going out during your lifetime, after your lifetime, or both, is getting where you want it.. By the way, did I mention that your foundation has to be proper- ly managed?,You need to appoint people (directors), to both man- age the assets of your foundation and also determine who gets the distributions each year. Well, who better to do this than your heirs? Certainly your sons and daugh- ters, per stirpes, should be hired to do this, and of course be paid a salary for their work out of the corpus of the trust!

One of the named benefactors.of your foundation is any approved university, and your son is considering giving them some of your foundation money. The endowment fund director happens to ask your son if he would consider a position on the board of the university, and .he, of course, says yes to the request. He also receives an expense and trav- el allowance and some compen- sation for his work in his new capacity, as a director at theuni- versity. Your foundation has now hired \your son directly and also indirectly gotten-him a second employment opportunity.

Thursday, March 23,2006 Forrey Grill: It's a By Donna Meister The first time Barbara Bailey drove over the Caloosahatchee Bridge and saw the Forrey Build- ing, she fell in love with it. That was several years ago. Little did. she know that one day, she would be running a restaurant at that very spot. It was while in Arizona and searching for an opportunity to re-enter the business, that she saw the Riverside Real Estate's website and found that the restau- rant was for sale. As they say, the rest is history. Barbara has been in the food service business for years. In fact, this is her fourth restaurant. Origi- nally from Michigan. Barbara and daughter Raymon Grigg had relo- cated to Lehigh. She helped the owners of Maria's Restaurant build that business for ten years. In 1999 she was given the oppor- tunity to purchase it and ran the, business for over five years, with Raymon as the general manager. She then sold the restaurant and took a break for two years, travel- ing with her husband to Califor- nia, Arizona and Nevada. It was at Maria's that Barbara met her love and second hus- band, R.J. Bailey. Having started in the medical field 17 years ago, he is a Registered Nurse and Para- medic, presently working at Lehigh Medical Center's Emer- gency Department. Cn his off days, R.J. performs all the mainte- nance, repairs and remodeling at the Forrey Grill, including the beautiful bar and cabinetry in the back lounge. His carpentry, woodworking and remodeling skills have come in handy and the restaurant has never looked bet- ter or more inviting Caloc Raymon is ready to take an order from I and Mom, Barbara Bailey and R.J. Bailey A decorated veteran of the Vietnam War, R.J. served as a combat infantryman with the First Air Cavalry Division during com- bat operations throughout the northern half of Vietnam in 1967- 68. He is also an avid baseball player, active in the Roy Hobbs Adult Baseball League of South- west Florida. Last year, he and best friend Ron Kennedy formed their own Roy Hobbs World Series team, the Lehigh Legends, which is sponsored b\ the Forres Grill. Barbara loves the homey atmosphere of Forrey Grill. She also loves the location the historic building and good karma that she feels there After Maria's 35 employees, a high end chef and the white linen napkins, Barbara was read\ to' downsize and have a more relaxed atmosphere.

So, when some- one with that kind of experience retires, it's bound to leave a hole. And that's just what Glen Hudson's leaving the FDOT LaBelle center is going to do, according to Operations Center Manager Shone Phillips. After four years at that position, he understands how hard a man like Glen Hudson is to come by and to replace. Glen started in May 1977. Over the years, he's just about done it all. There isn't a machine in the yard he can't run and he was a hard man to beat doing mainte- nance, carpentry; electric, plumbing and masonry. From 1983-95 he was a dragline opera- tor. He can drive truck, operate a loader and low boy. He even worked after hours when acci- dents required someone to help alongside the road. He was able to do, so much, Shone said, "nothing slows him Birthdays March 23: Glenda Walker, Preston Long, Jr., Juanita Bush, Jack Hyatt, Matthew Winn, Sara Catherine English, Kathy Williams, Jeanette Burchard, Annette N.

He added that when DOT got its new facility, Glen matched in the old building with the new training room and said that one of the hardest things he's done over the years is deal with inmate labor. "He will be highly missed," Shone said before he present- ed Glen with a plaque at his retirement party at Ortona Indian Mound Park on March 16. For his part, Glen was smiling from ear-to-ear, but he said he'll miss the people he's worked with so long, He recalled how, over the years, his workload increased and the yard got better equipment. He very much appre- ciated the fact that Debbie Hunt, Director of Operations for District 1, stopped by the yard that morn- ing to congratulate him and the letter from District Maintenance Engineer Sharon Hendrick and Caloosa Belle/Patty Brant Retiree Glen Hudson, left, is congratulated by LaBelle Oper- ations Center Manager Shone Phillips on the occasion of his retirement. ;, District I Secretary StanCann.

They smile when they want to scream, They sing when theywant to cry. They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. Theyfightforwhattheybelieveinr The\ stand up to injustice. They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe there is a better solution. They go %without so their family can have. SThey go to the doctor with a frightened friend. They love unconditionally. They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends get awards. They are happy when they hear about a birth or a \ wedding. Their hearts break when a friend dies. They grieve at the loss of a fami- ly member, yet they are, strong when they think there is no strength left. They know that ahug.and a kiss can heala broken heart. Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors. They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e- mail you to show how much they care about you. The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning. They bring joy, hope and love. They have compassion and ideas. They give moral support to their family and friends. Women have vital things to say and everything to give. HOWEVER. IF THERE IS ONE.

County Administrator Lester Baird suggested the board imple- ment a policy on putting up street lights. Generally, in established neighborhoods residents form a Municipal Services Benefits Unit (MSBU) and tax themselves for things such as street lighting and drainage. On arterial roads and major intersections here safe is an extra concern, the county takes on the responsibility. The board opted to place street lights at Cederx\ ood and East Cow- boy \\a\, then study the other loca- lions. Commissioner Bo, Pelham :added that some locations, like school bus stops, should also have streetlights. Office space Cbunrtv government offices are bursting at the seams. Adding to the space crunch, the 20th Circuit is expected to get one more judge Sfor Hendr y Counh, part time, as of June I for one week each month.

Baird said Royal's new Old Courthouse building behind the sheriff's office on Lee Street has the only available space. He wants to reslr\e 6,000 square feet of space for the count\ tentatively and asked for a letter of intent. Commissioner Maddox asked Mi. Baird to negoti- ate x\ith Royal's Other options would include modular offices but the count has no land in the vicini- t' oif the co:uni house complex. The county is also expecting a jail ex:parnsiln- coming up and must find additional space ior the public defender, probation office and ,-th 1l offices . Commissioner Kevin lMcCarth said he didn't %-ant to change any- thing until the county's space study is complete.

Rock said that, since the bridge will cost between $80-$100 mil- lion, the county will need federal assistance to pay for it. He said that means the county will need to be very careful not to miss any steps in the process. He said Lee and Glades counties should also be approached for assistance, since development,in both will benefit greatly Irom a ne\\ bridge. The commissioners voted to do the study on both possible: sites (just east of the Hendry-Lee county line and along Ri\ erbend RV Park).

Actually he works hard at it. He counsels the young men, tapes their games and pro- motes them to the recruiters. It may sound simple; however just think of all that extra time spent after a full time day is put in. Coach Dunbar, as usual, is very humble about any part he plays in the young men's suc- cesses. Coach Dunbar explained to all those assembled at the recent scholarship signing that one of his proudest and greatest moments are when his athletes decide to take the next step by continuing their educations and being dedicated to the sport that they all love. The coach went on to com- pliment the gifted athletes who were the reason for the occa- sion. He said that Austin was a blessing to coach. He was always respectful, a positive person, very quiet with only a few words to say. He was an aggressive player who hated to lose, but always handled him- self in the right way. He feels that Austin has not yet reached his full potential and Linden- wood is lucky to have him. Austin signed with NAIA, Lindenwood University in St. Charles, Missouri. Lindenwood University is a historic campus built in 1828. It is situated on a 500-acre campus among the beautiful linden trees, just west of St. Louis, with a growing community of 55,000 people. Austin holds a solid 3.4 grade point average and plans to study history at Lindenwood University. Kyle has received his schol- arship from West Virginia Wes- leyan. a Division II college. The campus is located in the foothills of the Allegheny Moun- tains, just two hours and fifteen minutes south of Pittsburgh and four and one half hours west of Washington, D.C. The college was built in 1890 and is affiliat- ed with the Methodist Church. Coach Dunbar said .that Kyle's senior football career was cut short when he- broke his leg during the Bishop Verot game, just three games into the season. His stats were excellent from his sophomore and junior years and recruiters remem- bered him. Coach Dunbar said Kyle was a very capable young man who had a lot to offer. He also never gave up on his dream, even when he wasn't sure he could continue. A three place second LaBelle High School's boys' power lifters have started their season with a bang. In their own LaBelle Invitational, the boys placed second out of 10 teams to Sarasota High School. Matt David- son and Keyendae Browne both received first place in their weight class. On March 13, the boys partici- pated in the Travis Todd Invita- tional in Avon Park. Once again, as a team they did outstanding with a second place overall finish, .ean, Kyle McLean, sister Paige and Tammy McLean. year starter, Kyle led the team in back sacks as a defensive end. receptions at tight end in his. At 6 foot three and 240 pounds, junior year. In his sophomore he moved to the line backer year he led the team in quarter- position to help the team. Kyle also has a 3.- grade point average and plans to study Business Administration. He is an avid paint-ball enthusiast. Errors cost the Cowgirls two more losses By Roger Alexander The Cowgirls softball went 2-3 this past week as they. played five games in six nights to bring their overall record to 11-3on the season. In the two losses the errors more than anything cost the Cowgirls the victory as they committed a com- bined eight errors in the two losses. They started things out with a win, though, as they easily defeat- ed Lemon Bay in a 9-1 ballgame in which, Cowgirl pitcher Amanda Atun allowed just two hits while striking out 13 batters. LaBelle scored two runs in each of the first two innings and then another in the sixth before ending the game with another two in the seventh. Vanessa Ostolaza was the hot hitter as she went 3 for 4 on the night. Atun, Alexa Redish and Lacy McCall each added two hits while Dani Blake had a double. LaBelle then fell in their next out- ing as Barron Collier played them just about even. Both teams had four hits. Both teams had three errors. Nsrlt f.ftrfrt E, j ilN Wo I ;w. NE'. ( N E Spanish, 7 ^w -'' r I'' o. Both teams scored arun in the fourth inning. The only difference was Col- lier managed to score one in the first to make the difference. Blake had two of the Cowgirl hits, with one of them being a triple. The other two hits came from the bats of Atun and Redish. Atun pitched the game and took the loss after giving up just four hits while striking out five. LaBelle rebounded: nicely though as they pounded out eleven hits in their next game. The errors Were still there for LaBelle, though, as they had three, but they were able to overcome them in the 7-1 victory against Southridge. LaBelle scored twice in the first and then again in the fifth before putting it out of reach in the sev- enth with a four run outburst.

LaBelle then suffered another loss as the errors got the best of them in a 7-2 loss at the hands of Bellview. The game \vas pretty' slop- py from both teams as Bellview wasn't much better .defensively, committing four errors. The differ- ence \ as the runs off the errors. LaBelle was out-hit four-to-five, but the errors were big. Bellview managed to score five unearned runs while LaBelle managed just one. Blake once again finished the night with another homerun while Ostolaza managed a double off two hits. This was probably the first time this season that Atun struggled in a ballgame. She lasted just three and a third innings while giving up the seven runs off four hits. She walked four batters while striking out just two batters. Redish came in and finished it out for LaBelle, allowing just two hits and four strikeouts over the same length of time. LaBelle managed to finish on a high note with another victory as they defeated Miami Braddock 3-1 with all of their runs coming in the sixth inning. Atun, Blake and Osto- laza each had two hits. Redish captured her third victo- ry of the season with a complete game where she allowed three hits, walks and strikeouts. LaBelle will be busy the rest of this week as they take part in another tournament from March 20-23.

Algae key indicator of Everglades water conditions With names like Spirogyra, Mastogloia and Schizothrix these common types of algae sound more like gourmet pasta dishes than slimy pond scum that grows on rocks or other plants in the Ever- glades ecosystem. However, this pond scum or periphytic algae - have a very critical and beneficial function: they are a natural link in the food chain, consumed by small invertebrates and fish and are sen- sitive indicators of environmental change in \\elland systems. Peri- phyton are the first and fastest bio- logical indicators to respond to changes to water quality condi- tions in the Everglades ecosystem By monitoring and studying periphvyon, scientists can provide. data needed to evaluate the progress and success of the Com- prehensixe Everglades Restoration Plan under the Restoration, Coordi- nation and Verification. (RECOV- ERi Program. To obtain monitor- ing results sooner and quantify complex periph.ion dynamics and water quality interactions, the South Florida Water Management District and Florida Atlantic Univer- sity scientists are implementing - for the first time a faster way of monitoring periphyton. Today, the South Florida Water Management District Governing Board author- ized a three-year cooperative agreement with FAU for monitor- ing Everglades periphyton using chemolaxomony technology, a rapid-assessment monitoring method. The $240,000 agreement uses a well-established method known ar chemotaxonomy to quantify periphylon abundance and composition of different types of algae based on diagnostic pig- ments. Samples can be analyzed faster than traditional methods, such as chlorophyll a or taxonomy. More than 480 samples will be collected each year from sites throughout the Everglades region starting April 2006. The chemotax- omonic assessment of these sam- ple will be reported in the context of their relationships to other key RECOVER projects, in the Annual Systems Status Report.

Orden aprobada La comision del condado ha aprobado una orden para restringir los lugares donde Oiven los molestadores sexuales. La nueva orden declara que un molestador sexual no puede vivir en una zona de 2,500 pies cuadra- dos alrededor de lugares donde hay menores. Estas zonas incluyen: escuelas, librerias publi- cas, guarderias, parques y patios de recreo. El convict sexual no debera de vivir temporalmente o permanentemente en estos lugares .. La order declara que si un propietario le renta o le vende a un convictdoexual'itm casa o una propiedad cerca de los lugares prohibidos para ellos, sera casti- gado. Al molestador se le prohibi- ra ir a un refugio comunitario en caso de desastre, en esle caso debera de estar en la carcel hasta que pase la emergencia. Las violaciones de esta orden tienen una multa de $500 o pri- sion por 60 dias. La segunda vez la multa sera de $1,000 o 12 meses de carcel. La orden no apli- ca para un convict sexual que establecio su residencia el. primero de septiembre, 2005 o si fueron menores que cometieron el delito y no fueron castigados como adults. Necesitamos su ayuda' Por favor cuando vaya a poner sus cosas de reciclar no las mez- cle con la basura. Todas las cosas recyclables como carton, vidrio, revistas y plasticos no se deben de revolver con la basura normal. Los trabajadores encargados de recojer las cosas recicladas encuentran bolsas de basura afuera de los contenedores. El Condado vende todo lo que es reciclado, no vende la,basura para eso cada propietario paga la basura todos los meses. Si usted no esta interesado en nuestro ambiente y mantener el Condado limpio por favor piense que entire mas recicle va a pagar menos en el recibo de basura y asi contribuira con el ambient. Recurede por favor, no ponga basura en los contenedores de reciclar.Mantenga los costs bajos. BEDROOM DINING ROOM SUITES SUITES LIVINGROOM ODDS SUITES 8 ENDS S\ I Av - CJLOOr KiF.

Crist and the lawmakers also urged the passage of other important public safety legislation, including a measure to safeguard abuse victims residing at domestic violence shelters and another mak- ing it illegal for citizens to provide misleading information to law enforcement officers investigating certain crimes. Crist and the legislators said the common-sense proposals would make law-abiding Floridians safer, Sand urged the Legislature to give .the measures speedy approval. :Joining Crist today were Senators "Paula Dockery and Mike Fasano,' SRepresenlatives Joe Negron, Jen- Sni er Carroll and Michael Grant, Florida Department of Law Enforcement Commissioner Guy Tunnell and State Attorney Willie SMeggs representing the Florida Prosecuting Attorneys Association, ;. as well as representatives from the IFlorida Sheriffs Association, the i Florida Police Chiefs Association, Sthe International Union of Police Associations, the Police Benevolent Association, the Fraternal Order of Police and the Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence. i Our government was formed, First and foremost, to ensure the Safety of its citizens, and public safety must be our highest priority," said Crist. "We cannot accept any- thing less than an unyielding stand against those who would tear apart innocent lives, families and com- munities by their criminal actions." The "Anti-Murder" legislation, sponsored by Sen. Dockery and Rep. ,Negron, would make certain that violent offenders who violate probation are returned to jail until a judge finds that they do not pose a danger to the community. The bill creates a list of crimes that qualify a person as a "Violent Felony Offend- er of Special Concern," ensuring closer scrutiny under the new law. Crist praised last year's Jessica Lunsford Act as an important first step toward protecting Florida's children, but said the additional provisions of the Anti-Murder legis- lation would make children even more safe from sex offenders and predators. Another priority piece of legisla- tion emerged from the investiga- tion into Jessica Lunsford's disap- pearance, which tragically ended in the discovery of the young girl's body not far from her home. As law enforcement investigated, rela- tives of the man eventually charged with Jessica's brutal murder were not forthcoming with authorities regarding his whereabouts. Prose- cutors concluded they had no avenue to charge the relatives under existing Florida law. Crist is now pursuing legislation that would make it a criminal offense to knowingly provide false or mis- leading information to law enforcement officers as they con- duct felony or missing person investigations. Violators would face up to year in jail and a $1,000 fine. The "False Witness" measure is sponsored by Sen. Jeff Atwater and-Rep. Grant. The third measure, the "Safe Shelter" initiative, would increase penalties for anyone who trespass- es at a domestic violence shelter. The goal of the bill is to keep abusers away from those they have victimized by making the shelters more secure for their inhabitants. Under the new legislation, violators would face up to five years in jail and a $5,000 fine, a significant enhancement from the previous penalty of no more than a $1,000 fine. The bill has been endorsed by the Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence, and is spon- sored by Sen. Fasano and Rep. Jen- nifer Carroll. The sponsors had the following comments on the public safety leg- islation: Anti-Murder "We are often able to recognize the signs that characterize a repeat offender and the Anti-Murder legis- lation would enable us to put that to positive use," said Sen. Dockery. "These people should not be given the chance to abuse their privilege of parole and commit additional crimes" "This bill ends the revolving door of justice for violent felony offenders," said Rep. Negron. "Violent predators must be kept in prison, not released back into our communities." False Witness "Law enforcement officers must be able to rely on those they question for information, particu- larly when lives could be at stake," said Sen. Atwater. "We want to empha- size how important it is that people are cooperative and honest with authorities. I applaud the Attorney General's efforts in this regard." "This bill provides a new arrow in the law enforcement quiver," said Rep. Grant. "Lying to investiga- tors will finally have a penalty." Safe Shelter "The victims of domestic vio- lence deserve as much protection as the law can provide. Those who commit the most heinous of crimes deserve the toughest penal- ties the law can provide," said Sen. Fasano. "I applaud Attorney Gener- al Charlie Crist for his strong stance in favor of victims and against the criminal and look forward to work- ing with my legislative colleagues to support the Attorney General's criminal justice priorities." "Government's role is to protect its citizens. When opportunity aris- es to do just that, we should act," said Rep. Carroll. 'It is incumbent upon the elected official to fulfill that obligation. Therefore, I took the opportunity to bring about public policy that will further pro- tect some of our most vulnerable citizens." Realtors report sales of over $13 million Ft.
