Council approves



six-story island hotel

It's been smooth sailing through city regulatory bodies for the proposed
Venice Island Resort near the city airport, and its revolving rooftop "desti-
nation" restaurant.


BY GREG GILES
NEWS EDITOR

There may be a few more
hurdles for Harvey Wasser-
man to jump before he can
break dirt on theVenice Island
Resort, but none compare to
gaining city council's ap-
proval Tuesday for the project.
"I'm thrilled that the com-
munity and city council sup-
ports the project," said
Wasserman, who raised his
family in Venice.
Council approved plans for
the five-story hotel above
one-story parking on Avenida
del Circo, a block away from
Venice Municipal Airport.
Technically, Wasserman
was there to secure a height
exception for the 10 feet
above the allowable 55 feet
allocated to resort zoning,
and to approve a master con-
cept design plan.
It was no contest.
The height exemption is
for a public rooftop revolving
restaurant and its related
facilities, something that
drew strong support by the
planning commission and
city council.
"I find it hard to criticize
anything about this project,"


said Councilman John Moore.
, Councilman Bill Willson
applauded the resort as a
model infill project.
"They've done a nice job of
stepping it up ... with the huge
setbacks," Willson said.
Mayor Fred Hammett was
the only council member to
vote against the request for a
height exemption, saying "I'm
a little troubled by the extra 10
feet."
"When I look at height
exemption (requests) I'm
always thinking, what will the
city get in return," Hammett
said.
"I don't think the extra 10
feet gets us enough."

HEALTH DEPARTMENT
Public health and school
authorities remind parents to
update their children's immu-
nizations as soon as possible.
Students without required
immunizations will be sent
home from public schools on
the first day, Aug. 20. In addi-
tion, they will not be able to
ride the bus or participate in
sports, band or other extra-


curricular activities until the
school has the form showing
the shots were received.
The 2007-08 Florida im-
munization requirements for
school attendance are:
Pre-kindergarten: four
DTP; three polio; four Hib;
one MMR; three hepatitis B;
one varicella (chicken pox)
K-grade six: five DTP;
four polio; two MMR; three
hepatitis B; one varicella
Grades seven-12: five


DTP; four polio; two MMR;
three hepatitis B; one TD or
Tdap (Tdap is recommended)
The Sarasota County
Health Department, through
the federally funded Vaccines
for Children program, offers
free immunizations to chil-
dren from families who lack
health insurance or whose
insurance does not pay for
immunizations. 1No appoint-
ment is needed. A parent or
guardian must be present

Dry can be good


Whither red tide?
Perchance we dream we
sniff salt air without a side
assault to our eyes and nose.
Lo, 'tis true, scientists say. This
midsummer is no dream; it's
simply devoid of the red tide
we've come to expect
The "why" behind this
"what" could be due to our
lack of rain. No rain means no
washoff of fertilizers into the
Gulf, where red tide algae
could use it to launch a repro-
ductive fury.
Rain will come, you know.
Nature will do what it must to
achieve balance. And, surely
as April showers bring May
flowers, August rains will bring
September red tide pains.

Spending a day with the mayor


The Zirkle family recite the Pledge of Allegiance at city hall as part of
"Day with the Mayor."


Alexandra Zirkle, 10 and her brother Tim, 12, await a spin down the
street in a Venice fire engine.


PROVIDED PHOTOS
The Zirkles have lunch with Mayor Fred Hammett and city council
members prior to Tuesday's meeting. The Zirkles won the "Day with
the Mayor" as part of a fundraiser for Pine View School.


Living large for two youth means getting out of
jail free without having to say you're sorry.


BY GREG GILES
NEWS EDITOR


It's official. The coolest
thing about hanging out with
the mayor is getting to ride in
a fire engine and being put in
jail and released.
That was the perspective


of two lucky students who
spent Tuesday making the
rounds with Venice Mayor
Fred Hammett.
Students Tim and Alex-
andra Zirkle, and their moth-
er, Michelle, from Osprey,
spent the day touring the
city's reverse osmosis water


plant, fire station, where they
got to ride in the back seat of
a fire truck, and the Venice
Police station, where they got
to see the inside of a real jail.
Later they lunched with city
council members.
"It was all really great. I
loved it," said Tim, a 12-year-
old sixth-grader. Ditto for
Alexandra, 10 and a fifth-
grader.
Michelle was most im-
pressed with the city's water


plant.
"That's really a top facility,"
she said.
"It's very interesting learn-
ing the stages of water being
purified," Tim said.
The biggest highlight for
the kids was pulling the fire
engine horn and the police
siren and holding the keys to
the jail.
Tim even had an opinion
about council.
"It was informational," he


said.
And that's where the fun
ended sitting for two hours
straight getting a lesson in
democracy by listening to
council take public testimony
and debate the heated issues
of the day.
The Zirkles won the "Day
with the Mayor" as a fund-
raiser for Pine View School a
few months ago when grand-
parents Chris and Jan Grzep
of Long Boat Key bid on the


trip during a silent auction.
"We don't even know what
the winning bid was," Mi-
chelle said.
Hammett donated the
"Day with the Mayor" for the
school fundraiser.
Hammett paid for the ex-
penses of the day, including
lunch for council members
and guests, from his personal
funds, said Pam Johnson,
public information officer for
the city.

Don't be lulled by hurricane forecasts


Though it might not seem so, forecasts of the
path of Hurricane Charley were accurate.


BY GREG MARTIN
STAFF WRITER

Many people from Tampa
to Punta Gorda and parts east
were taken by surprise Aug.
13, 2004, when Hurricane
Charley intensified into a
devastating Category 4 hurri-
cane and took a sudden jog to
the east into Charlotte Harbor
and north up the Peace River.
But nobody should have
been surprised that theywere at
risk of a major hurricane strike,
according to an assessment by
the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration.
At the time the storm
made landfall, the Punta
Gorda area had been in the
"cone of uncertainty" for
almost four days. It had also
been under a hurricane
watch for almost 35 hours
and under a hurricane warn-
ing for almost 23 hours.
Despite those warnings,
some people were lulled into
complacency by the "thin
black line" that meteorolo-
gists drew down the middle of


the cone of uncertainty, said
Dennis Feltgen, a senior me-
teorologist for the National
Hurricane Center in Miami.
In Charley's case, that line
led straight to Tampa. So,
people who saw their homes
were to the right of that line
may have assumed the hurri-
cane was going to pass safely
by offshore.
"The question arises,
'What part of 'hurricane
warning' don't you under-
stand?' Feltgen said. "There
was too much attention on
the skinny black line."
Revision
The hurricane center, the
National Weather Service and
NOAA have taken steps to
improve education so people
won't be surprised by another
hurricane.
Still, the danger remains
high that people will be lulled
again into complacency by
forecasts that either seem to
miss the mark or storm sea-
sons, like this one, that get off
to an abnormally slow start.


With August and Sep-
tember the peak months for
hurricanes, this hurricane
season could still kick into
high gear as predicted.
Government forecasters
minimally reduced their ex-
pectations for an above-aver-
age Atlantic hurricane season
Thursday, saying up to nine
hurricanes and up to 16 trop-
. ical storms are projected to
form.
In their previous forecast
in May, the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Adminis-
tration predicted 10 hurri-
canes and 17 storms.
NOAA maintained its pre-
diction that three to five of the
hurricanes will be major
storms of Category 3 strength
or stronger.
No El Nifio
Despite the slight reduc-
tions and a harmless season
so far, NOAA said atmospher-
ic and oceanic conditions
have increased forecasters'
belief that the season will be
more active than normal. On
average, there are 10.3 named
Atlantic storms and 6.2 hurri-
canes, 2.7 of them major.
"The early-season activity


really doesn't reflect what's
going to happen in the peak
of the season," said Gerry
Bell, the lead seasonal hurri-
cane forecaster at NOAA.
"The fact that there's been no
hurricanes so far means
absolutely nothing."
Bell conceded that fore-
casters overestimated the
amount of tropical activity
last year, but indicated he was
more confident this season.
"The reason was that we
failed to forecast the rapidly
developing El Niflo," he said.
"This year there's no chance
of an El Nifio." '
Chances are, people are
not going to be hearing pre-
dictions for a "slow season"
anytime soon. After several
decades of below-normal
hurricane activity, the A-
tlantic region in 1995 entered
the above-normal part of a
multidecade cycle, according
to the National Hurricane
Center.
Statistics have shown the
existence of the cycle. From
1970 to 1995, there were only
36 hurricanes. From 1995 to
2006, there have already been
29 hurricanes, including 17
that struck the Gulf Coast.


NOAXs Hurricane Charley
assessment shows the Na-
tional Hurricane Center did a
better-than-average job pre-
dicting Charley's track. But
the report still doesn't know
why Charley turned into
Charlotte Harbor and whip-
ped up to Category 4.
Normally, storms get
weaker as they make landfall,
the study notes.
Peaking
Charley's idiosyncrasies
underscore the need for peo-
ple to heed warnings, said
Feltgen.
"That's the thing; people
think all storms are alike," he
said. "They're not."
In 2006, the hurricane cen-
ter predicted an above-active
season and it never material-
ized. No federal forecasters
predicted that an El Niflo
cycle would develop that
August, Feltgen said. That
cycle, which curbed tropical
storm formation, lasted until
last winter.
In 2007, forecasters have
again been expecting a La
Nifia cycle to start up, but it's
been late in arriving.
"So far, we've had three


storms, but we're just enter-
ing the peak of the season,"
said Feltgen.
Feltgen was asked if global
warming could be throwing
off the climate predictions
this year. Some scientists
have shown that global
warming may cause more El
Nifio events in the future, but
that wouldn't account for a
single weather event like the
drought this summer, he said.
Also, the presence of La
Nifia or El Nifio isn't the only
factor in hurricane season fore-
casts, Feltgen said. He pointed
out, in 2005, when there were
28 storms, the La Nifia-El Nifio

Principal pay rates under review


Shell seeker


BY COURTNEY LINN
STAFF WRITER
In the Sarasota County
School District, a principal
with 500 students can make
more money annually than a
principal with three times as
many students.
On each of the seven steps
of pay rates for Sarasota
County School Board princi-
pals, principals of special pro-
grams such as Cyesis, Phoe-
nix Academy and the new
North County technical high
school make roughly $4,000
more a year than middle
school principals.
Board Member Carol Todd
brought up this issue at
Tuesday's board workshop.
"I think the numbers are
way out of whack," Todd said.
Todd said the decision to
pay more to special program
principals was based on a
suggestion former superin-
tendent David Bennett made
for Cyesis principal Lorraine
Colby roughly seven years
ago, before he left the district
in August 2000.
Now, Todd said, the num-
ber of principals that fall into
the special programs salary
range is increasing, and she
feels the difference needs to
be addressed.
Superintendent Gary Nor-


The differences in pay rates of special pro-
grams principals and middle school principals
has been an embarrassment to the district for
years.
- Barry Dubin, executive director of the


Sarasota (


Classified/Teachers Association


ris said the rate of pay for
principals is based on a myri-
ad of factors that have noth-
ing to do with numbers of
students.
The pay rates are based on
teacher and student supervi-
sion, responsibility in han-
dling money and the princi-
pal's ability to move the cur-
riculum forward, Norris said.
The number of assistant
principals also makes a differ-
ence, he said.
For example, if a principal
has three assistant principals,
each one can take on some of
the principal's supervisory
responsibilities. Some of the
special programs schools
don't have as much support
staff.
An embarrassment
Principals don't have any
union bargaining power
within the school district.

"It's against the. law for
principals to bargain," said
Barry Dubin, executive direc-
tor of the Sarasota Classi-
fied/Teachers Association.
"The pay rates are set by the
board."
However, the SC/TA has
been aware of the discrepan-
cy. The differences in pay
rates of special programs
principals and middle school
principals has been an
embarrassment to the district
for years, Dubin said.
While Todd said the deci-
sion to have the pay schedule
as it is was proposed by
Bennett, Pat Gardner, presi-
dent of the SC/TA, said she
remembered when the deci-
sion was made.
According to Gardner, for-
mer superintendent Wilma
Hamilton made the decision.
Hamilton came to the SC/TA
and related the district's plan


to have a special salary for
Colby before it was made
public, Gardner said. Todd
said she didn't remember
how she voted when the
board addressed the issue
seven years ago.
Changing the system
According to Dubin and
Todd, the school board has
the ability to change the pay
rate schedule through a vote.
However, there are princi-
pals whose current pay would
be affected by a change to the
schedule.
"I agree with her (Todd)
100 percent that it's in-
equitable, but I don't know
how you can change it,"
Board Chair Frank Kovach
said.
Norris said the district will
investigate the pay schedule
and will ask the human
resources department and
the school-based administra-
tors for recommendations.
However, the district's
human resources depart-
ment was unsure how to
address the problem.
"I don't know how that
would work," said board
Human Resources Director
Roy Sprinkle. "We've never
done that."

attack, speak about his family.
Hawke and Bishop Bickerdon
of the Pittsburgh United
Methodist Church, also
recalled their experiences
with the deceased.
Making choices
Hawke spoke directly
about the home invasion, and
especially to the question on
the minds of so many how
could this happen to what
was by all accounts a deeply
religious family?
"We do not blame God,"
Hawke said. "This is about
people making choices.
"These people chose evil.
We choose good.
"We know that when (our
daughter and granddaugh-
ters) were going through this
horrendous experience, God
was with them, and he was
with us in our grief and our
tears.
"God doesn't cause these
kinds of things. But he is with
us when we go through
them," Hawke said.
The home invasion
Two parolees are charged
with the murders. It has been
reported that Connecticut's
lead prosecutor will seek the
death sentence for the perpe-
trators.
They raped and strangled
Jennifer Lynn Hawke-Petit,
48, and tied 17 year-old
daughter Hayley and her 11

year-old sister Michaela to
their beds before pouring
gasoline around the house
and lighting it on fire to con-
ceal the crime.
The daughters died of
smoke inhalation in the rob-
bery turned murder.
Petit, 50, was assaulted and
bound in the basement, but
managed to escape through a
basement "hatch" before fire
consumed the house.
Remembered
As for the parolees, Hawke
had little to say.
"We have never said any-
thing about the villains,"
Hawke said. "The only thing
we've said is they are two men
who chose to do evil rather
than good, but we have not
stressed their lives."
Instead, he's remembering
the great contributions the
victims already made to the
world.


Hawke said his daughter
brought great joy as a nurse to
the students and staff at Miss
Porter's School in Farm-
ington, where she worked,
participating in Sunday
school and acting almost as a
second mother for many of
the students who are board-
ers at the school.
When it was learned eight
years ago Hawke-Petit had
multiple sclerosis, daughter
Hayley decided to help raise
funds to combat the disease.
Over six years, the Petits
figure Hayley raised over
$55,000 to fight MS.

WANT TO HELP?
Contributions can be
sent to "Hayley's Hope" or
"Michaela's Miracle" at The
National Multiple Sclerosis
Society Greater CT Chapter
659 Tower Ave., 1st Floor,
Hartford, CT 06112 or
online at ctfightsms.org.
A foundation has been
set up in the Petit's name,
The Petit Family Foun-
dation, Farmington Savings
Bank, 32 Main Street, Farm-
ington, CT 06032.
Donations also are being
accepted to the Jennifer
Hawke-Petit Scholarship at
Cheshire Academy, 10
Main St., Cheshire, CT
06410.


She wanted to follow in her
father's footsteps and study to
be a doctor, poised to enter
Dartmouth College, Hawke
said.
"She was going to turn the
fundraising effort over to
Michaela, but of course she
wouldn't be able to do that."
Last week at one of the
memorial services, three
young girls said they were
going to take up the cause for
Michaela and continue to
raise funds for MS, Hawke
said.
Michaela, at 11 years old,
was a vegetarian and very
much interested in food, he
remembered.
"She didn't have any goals
in life yet, but she might have
moved into being a chef,"
Hawke said.
"They all had great poten-
tial, and would have made a
greater mark upon the
world."
Picking up the pieces
Now that the services are
over, the Hawkes are facing
their loss with renewed spirit.
"We plan to pick up our
lives and try to live by the
examples that were expressed
through the lives of those lost
in this tragedy.
"We are going to love and
seek peace and justice for the
world."

BY GERALD A. ROGOVIN
CORRESPONDENT


In the midst of the tough-
est water restrictions in South
Florida history, water -man-
agers are starting to say "no"
to residential development.
The South Florida Water
Management District has told
state planners to reject
growth plans proposed by
Hendry County that would
expand its population more
than 250 percent by 2030.
The district says the coun-
ty hasn't shown where it
would get enough water to
support more than 60,000
additional residents. They
would raise the population to
about 104,000 from the cur-
rent 40,459 in the rural area.
Environmentalist and
growth management groups
around the state welcomed
the district's objection, alt-
hough Glenn Compton of
Manasota-88 in Nokomis
said that the district does not
have the legal authority to
deny Hendry's proposal.
Manasota-88 opposed
changes in the Sarasota
County comprehensive plan
that increase density for
development last March. A
citizens organization in-
volved in public health and
environmental issues,, it
declared that the county lacks
the water and power res-


sources to support continued
growth.
"The number of individu-
als who can be supported
without degrading natural,
cultural and social environ-
ments has been reached," the
group stated. "We can no
longer depend on providing
good quality water at reason-
able prices to residents of
southwest Florida."
Joanne Davis of 1,000
Friends of Florida, a growth
management group, said that
the state is long overdue in
forcing development to match
what nature can support.
/
Dire straits
The state's five water man-
agement districts were created
by the Florida Legislature in
1972, following a drought the
previous year that prompted
then-Govemor Reubin Askew
to call for limits on growth.
Critics at the time expressed
fear that the districts would
exert almost dictatorial control
over development.
Obviously, it hasn't worked
out that way. Nearby Collier
County grew by more than 65
percent in the 1990s. The
populations of counties from
Collier north to Hillsborough
in Southwest Florida have
grown from 6.5 percent to 14
percent since 2000.
At the same time, a dou-
bling of demand for water


over the next 20 years is high-
ly probable, according to the
Miami Herald.
Two executive orders is-
sued on Aug. 3 by the
Southwest Florida Water
Management District allowed
an increase in the temporary
withdrawals of water from
the Alafia River and the
Tampa Bypass Canal to take
advantage of recent rains.
Reservoirs of the regional
water supply authority were
down to 2.4 billion gallons on
that date. Capacity is 15 bil-
lion gallons.
Rainfall from August 2006
through last month in the
Alafia watershed totaled 43.6
inches, almost 9 inches below
normal. That indicated that
the area is experiencing a
"moderate drought," accord-
ing to the U.S. Drought
Monitor.
"This drought has put us in
dire straits," said David L.
Moore, executive director of
the district.
Repairs to the Tampa Bay
Seawater Desalination Plant
and some of the 11 wellfields
operated by the district have
heightened the problem.
When the desalination
plant opened in 2003, it was
supposed to produce about 25
million gallons a day to be
mixed into the drinking water
supply. But it has never exceed-
ed 18 million gallons a day.

OUR VIEW


Wanted: new sheriff; must have thick skin


Why would Sarasota County Sheriff
Bill Balkwill even bother?
After 32 years in the sheriff's
office, from nights behind the wheel of a
patrol car to days behind the desk in the top
office, he'd seen it all.
The pension is good, the headaches are
only getting worse.
So it was a perfectly sensible time last
week for Balkwill to announce his retire-
ment.
Balkwill never had an especially easy time
of it. He faced criticism for his management
style from inside and outside the depart-
ment.
Balkwill's critics had long complained
that he had made the department top-
heavy. He also was known for seeking ever-


bigger budgets, regardless of the state of the
economy.
He faced a strong challenge three years
ago, but ended up well on top in a three-per-
son race.
He was an easy-going man who will be
remembered for his department's swift and
successful arrest of Joseph Smith, who kid-
napped and murdered 11-year-old Carlie
Brucia in 2004. The case captured national
media attention and helped propel Balkwill
to a second term. Big cases always count
most with the voters.
Thirty-two years were enough, though,
especially in light of ever-tightening budget
constraints brought on by the Legislature's
property tax-cutting initiatives.
After Balkwill brought in a budget with a


6-percent increase earlier this year, commis-
sioners howled. While other sheriffs said
they would pitch in to absorb the pain of
budget cuts, Balkwill dug in and said he
would appeal to the governor.
Because the sheriff's budget makes up
roughly one-third of the total county ser-
vices budget, a higher sheriff's budget would
have meant more county cuts elsewhere to
achieve the state-imposed target of a 7-per-
cent reduction.
Commissioner Shannon Staub, who
floated the possibility that she'd run for sher-
iff herself next year, sent Balkwill a list of two
dozen suggestions for possible cuts.
The sheriff subsequently revised his
numbers and came in with a level-funded
budget, although the commission was look-


ing for more. But even that hit a bump when
the Venice and North Port police chiefs com-
plained Balkwill's money-saving plan to
close the South County jail in Venice would
seriously hurt their operations.
Presumably, it was back to the drawing
board, although no revised budget has been
submitted.
All in all, retirement had to look like an
inviting proposition.
The campaign for sheriff is now wide
open. The next sheriff will have to an adept
manager who will be able to do more or
as much- with less. Plans for a new jail also
will move forward.
It will be a tougher job in the immediate
future, but there are bound to be plenty of
candidates.


Going cold turkey


BOB VEDDER.
COLUMNIST

I have been addicted to
caffeine more specifically,
Diet Coke for many years.'
In fact it goes as far back as
Coke's first diet drink, Tab,
which I started using in my
college days. It tasted like liq-
uid cardboard.
The addiction has been
pretty serious. I usually drank
many 44-ounce Big Gulp-size
drinks a day, throwing in a few
carins from a machine. Rest-
aurants that give free .refills,
like Bogey's, lost money on
me as they could not feed me
enough.
I had rationalized that I
needed to pay Coca-Cola
back for all it has done for my
family. Our oldest son, Todd,
the doctor, attended Emory
University in Atlanta (some-
times called Coca-Cola U be-
cause of the huge endowment
from Coke). He went there on
a full-ride Woodruff scholar-
ship that was named after the
longtime president of Coke.
Woodruff endowed several
scholarships at the school.
A few people have made
fun of my addiction. One per-
son gave me a plastic Coke
bottle about 3 feet tall. I was
upset because it wasn't full, of
the good stuff.
I'd been reading all kinds of
things about how, bad diet
drinks are (they are like bat-
tery acid) and how they make
you eat more. (I figure the
study was done by the milk
consortium). So, three weeks
ago I decided to try to quit
and instead drink that highly,
prized city of Venice pure
aquifer water, with added
nutrients like chlorine.
I knew there would be side
effects to dropping Diet Coke.
First, I was tired and lethargic.
That lasted for a couple of
weeks.
Then there have been the
dreaded headaches a with-
drawal symptom. Luckily, the
first couple of days I didn't get
any; since then I have had two
or three, but none really bad.
After three weeks I can say
I have proven I can get off it
and have kicked the habit,
although I long for one of
those great-tasting Coke Ze-
ros that taste a lot like "the
real thing." It has helped me
save some money, which I
now spend on food, so now I
need to get after that again.
What a vicious cycle it all is.

We got a temporary water
dish for dogs behind the
Gondolier Sun, helping peo-
ple walking their pets along
the Venetian Waterway Park
in this terrible heat.
Of course, it is a lot hotter
in the Midwest, which makes
me wonder why people don't


take their summer vacation
here. It's cooler here than
most places other than the
north.

has worked, so why not

Today's Ism: Why don't you
ever read the headline, "Psych-

******
Frank Depgen sent me an
article from the New Haven
Register about roundabouts.
The people were up in arms
and-even had 2,000 signatures
trying-to stop one. The de-
partment of transportation
installed it anyway, causing
people to miss their turns and
get confused in the round-
about.
The DOT took land by emi-
nent domain, hurting some
businesses so bad they sold or
lost a lot of money. They had
stopped construction for the
summer because of beach
traffic.

I hope you will send us your
story on why you like the
Venice area. Shortly we will be
starting a series featuring all the
reasons why Venice is such a
great place. Send them to

some wonderful group ads
for different clusters of busi-
nesses.
Thanks to all for sharing.

LETTERS FROM OUR READERS


The wheel squeaked with no result


Editor:
Why does Sarasota County grant one neighborhood its
request and not another neighborhood that made the same
request under the same project?
On May 31, 2005, the Venice Gardens Neighborhood Plan
meetings began. Several improvements to the Venice Gardens
community were recommended; one was constructing side-
walks on Pomelo Drive, North Gondola Drive, South Gondola
Drive, East Gondola Drive, Sklar Drive, Banyan Drive,
Briarwood Road, Valencia Drive and Venice East Boulevard.
It was brought up by the residents of Pomelo Drive that the
sidewalks were not wanted or needed, that the people recom-
mending these sidewalks do not live on Pomelo Drive; no one
listened.
On March 10, 2006, a petition was sent to County
Administrator Jim Ley, county commissioners Jon Thaxton,
Shannon Staui(and Public Works. On April, 20,2006, the coun-
ty's response,was, we basically don't care what you want, you
are getting a walk.
This alert aLso stated that the sidewalks would not be
installed at North, South and East Gondola Drive nor on Sklar
Drive, at the request of the residents. The residents of Pomelo
Drive were not given this same consideration.
We feel the reason behind this is that the aforementioned
areas are more upper middle class, that they contribute to the
campaign coffers or they hired a lawyer to fight their cause.
Like they say, money talks. If you don't have any, don't both-
er the politicians because they won't hear a word you say.

Stamp an appropriate symbol of gratitude


VERN BUCHANAN
GUEST COLUMNIST


Venice resident Richard
Lemm is living proof that
some of the best ideas for leg-
islation come from the peo-
ple, not from Washington,
D.C.
Mr. Lemm is the first vice
president of American Legion
Post 159 inVenice. It was there
that I had the pleasure of
meeting Richard during a
Memorial Day event this
spring.
He told me that for a long
time he had wanted to do
something for disabled veter-
ans and decided that a postal
stamp in their honor was a fit-
ting tribute. So, we looked in
toit.
Each year the United States
Postal Service issues com-
memorative stamps to recog-
nize or celebrate individuals,


landmarks and events. In
2007, the postal service will
issue 99 commemorative
stamps, including stamps
featuring the Hershey Kiss,
Marvel Comics and Disney.
More than 1,800 com-
memorative stamps have
been issued since the first in
1893 but there has never
been a stamp to honor dis-
abled veterans.
On behalf of Mr. Lemm, I
introduced House Concur-
rent Resolution 176, express-
ing the sense of Congress that
a commemorative postage
stamp should be issued to
honor our nation's disabled
veterans.
There are more than 3 mil-
lion disabled veterans in our
country. More disabled veter-
ans are returning home each
day from honorably defend-
ing our country.
These men and women
have risked their lives and
sacrificed their health in ded-
icated service to our country.
A commemorative stamp
would be a fitting tribute to
our disabled veterans.
My resolution has 91
cosponsors from both sides of
the aisle and the endorse-
ment of several veterans orga-
nizations, including Disabled
American Veterans, AMVETS,


Military Order of the Purple
Heart, the state commander
of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars and members of the
VFW's National Legislative
Committee.
The USPS Citizens' Stamp
Advisory Committee reviews
and appraises approximately
50,000 proposals submitted
for commemoration each
year. The postmaster general
has the exclusive and final
authority to determine both
subject matter and design.
Though usable as postage,
commemorative stamps oft-
en are held by collectors and
sold privately at auctions and
through other means.
We have a moral obligation
to ensure that our wounded
warriors receive the apprecia-
tion they have earned for
their selfless service to their
country. A commemorative
stamp would be an appropri-
ate symbol of a grateful
nation.
I applaud Mr. Lemm for his
thoughtful suggestion. And I
encourage people to keep
their ideas and suggestions
coming.

health. The tobacco industry
responded by creating doubt
in our minds. It aired com-
mercials claiming "nine out of
10 doctors smoke (fill in a
brand.)" We now know better.
Global warming is far more
serious.
Fact: Carbon dioxide has
risen every year since Dr.
Keeling began measuring it in
1958. It has increased, by
roughly 20 percent since
1958. (Source: www.noaa.gov;
search "Keeling," then "Trends
Carbon Dioxide".)
Fact: The top five warmest
ears on record worldwide
since the 1890s were 1998,
2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005.
(Source: http://www.nasa.
gov/vision/earth/ environ-
rhent/2005_warmest.html.)


Fact: An ice core taken
from Vostok in Antarctica in
1998 measured carbon diox-
ide. The Vostok record shows
the present-day levels of car-
bon dioxide are unprecedent-
ed during the past 420,000
years. (Source: http://cdiac.

the old 1964 doubt they're

I'll never forget 'Keep
America Beautiful's TV com-
mercial in 1971, in which an
Indian paddled his canoe up a
garbage-filled river, past
belching smokestacks. The

LET 'EM HAVE IT: SHOULD THE CITY OF VENICE CONSIDER BANNING SMOKING IN PUB-
LIC PARKS? CALL US AT 207-1111.

Smokers should butt out of parks


Burning issue. I'm sorry to see that Venice City Hall, Venice
MainStreet and our local community foundation all support
second-hand smoke and the dangers of that in causing cancer.
I can't believe that the children's water fountain park still has
ashtrays there promoting people smoking in that environ-
ment. Also the new park by Venice Little Theatre, which is
never used, has an ample supply of-ashtrays next to each of the
benches. Perhaps that's why nobody uses that park. And while
we're at it, Venice Little Theatre, let's get the green mildew off
your building and perhaps plant some nice palm trees along
side the old ABC liquor store so the entry of Venice MainStreet
is not ruined by the appearance of your buildings.


One of two. I'm calling in
reference to whether you
should keep the Dave Barry
column. There's two reasons I
subscribe to the Gondolier
Sun, and that is to see the
local sports and to read Dave
Barry.
Overhead. I'd like people
to take note of the article in
the Gondolier Sun about sta-
dium rent and stadium nego-
tiations. That full page has
complete, wonderful infor-
mation about the possibilities
of what we could face in the
Venice area if an airport pro-
ject at the magnitude that
they want to do here inVenice
gets out of hand like this busi-
ness about of the Cincinnati
Reds coming to Sarasota. It
looks like they're in a fiasco
and have gotten way in over
their heads with the building
of the stadium. I think that
we're getting in over our
heads even thinking about
the airport renovations and
putting in buildings and
marinas. I hope people go
back and read this article. I
hope people continue to bat-
tle this expansion for the air-
port.
First thing. I have lived
here for 17 years and the
fountain downtown is the
first thing I've seen put in for
the children of this town. I
think it's wonderful. I love to


watch the little ones run in
the water. It can't be that
expensive. The parents are
there to watch them. It's a
wonderful opportunity to
give the children some joy.
Not everyone has a pool and
it's better than turning on the
hydrants, which they do up
north in some places when
it's hot, or turning on your
hose and letting them run
through that. May we keep it
there and may we give more
things to the children of our
area.
Local call. I think you
should get rid of the Dave
Barry column and replace it
with some local humor from
Venice.
High priority. The Sarasota
County Sheriff's Office gave
figures as of this week that
there have been more killings
in Sarasota County this year
than previous years. The sher-
iff's office, especially with
people out of work, with the
cost of homes and the prob-
lems with foreclosures and
with the drug problem, they
need more money to fight for
better law enforcement in the
area. Whatever Sarasota
County can do, they need to
make sure Sarasota County
has enough money for the
sheriff's office and the sheriff.
This has to be a high priority
- public safety, both fire and


police.
No vote. I have some ques-
tions as to the Nokomis
Volunteer Fire Department. I
understand that they have a
board that runs the place;
however, I've never heard of
there being any elections. I've
never heard of or seen any
financial statements from this
company and I don't even
know, if they wanted to run
for the board, how they would
begin to do so. There seems to
be no notification or no board
meetings. And here's a com-
pany that we are trusting to
provide a decent service, so
that is an extreme concern.
An idea. The nursing
home on Nokomis Avenue on
the island is gone. The sur-
rounding neighborhood is
commercial and has taller
buildings. Why not build a
hotel on this site? Just an idea,
since it is close to everything
nice to visit.

owner plans to build townhouses
on the site.

Better boards graduate from foundation program


FROM GCCFV

Nonprofit boards in the
region say they are holding
more productive meetings,
raising more money and
strengthening their organiza-
tions for the future thanks to
training and resources re-
ceived through Gulf Coast
Community Foundation of
Venice's Building Better Boards
good governance initiative.
Members of 11 of those
boards, representing organi-
zations from Tampa to Boca
Grande, shared their success-
es and outlined plans for con-
tinued improvement at a
breakfast to mark their gradu-
ation from the program on
Thursday, Aug. 9, at Venetian
Golf & River Club.
"You have experienced
tremendous growth and
change with all of your boards
since embarking on this pro-
gram, and your progress is to
be commended," said Teri A.
Hansen, president and CEO
of the foundation. "Building
Better Boards is one of the
most comprehensive ways
that, together, we are building
a more vital nonprofit com-

enced tremendous

boards since embark-

ing on this program, -

munity."

The graduates
The graduating organiza-
tions' boards have participat-
ed in extensive board devel-
opment and training facilitat-
ed by certified governance
consultants provided through
the program. Board chairs
and executive directors also
took part in an intensive

board institute and peer net-
working sessions.
In addition, participating
boards received a library of
"good governance" resources
and had opportunities to
apply for foundation grants
for further board governance
improvement projects.
The 11 organizations that
graduated this month from
the comprehensive training
component of Building Better
Boards join 11 alumni organi-
zations that completed the
program last year. A group of
11 more organizations is cur-
rently participating in the
board training phase in year
three of this multi-year foun-
dation initiative.
Nonprofit boards graduat-
ing from the Building Better
Boards initiative were: Asolo
Repertory Theatre; Catholic
Charities, Diocese of Venice;
Child Protection Center; Flor-
ida West Coast Broadcasting
(WEDU); Gulf Coast Heritage
Association; Healthy Start
Coalition of Sarasota County;
Loveland Center; New Col-
lege Foundation; Royal Palm
Players; Venice Area Beauti-
fication Inc.; and Venice City
Council.
Venice City Council is
unique among the BBB grad-
uates in that it is a municipal
rather than a nonprofit
board.
City Manager Marty Black
said that BBB helped city
council with its strategic
planning process.
The city also has applied best
practices identified through
BBB to its volunteer advisory
committees, requiring, for
example, that all city volun-
teers abide by the same code
of ethics as city employees.

The initiative
There are two phases to
the initiative. In the first,
online board self-assessment,
board members from partici-

pating local nonprofit organi-
zations complete an online
survey regarding the work of
their board.
The second phase, board
training, includes 16 hours of
free local facilitation time
with governance consultants
for facilitated board sessions
and a two-day board institute
with national presenters for
board chairs and chief execu-
tives of participating organi-
zations in a planned group
session that focuses on skills
training.
In the initiative's three
years, 1,100 board members
from 79 organizations com-
pleted a board online self-
assessment developed by the
foundation (25 of those 79
organizations chose to take it
again to track their progress).
Thirty-four of these boards


also took part in additional
in-depth training.
After the first phase, partic-
ipants received a report on
their organization's results, a
comparison to their peers
and a one-year BoardSource
membership. Organizations
may choose to retake the
assessment in order to review
their progress.

Keeping it local
The foundation provided
advanced BoardSource gov-
ernance training to a team of
local consultants and, in
return for the free training,
the consultants agreed to
provide services to the agen-
cies participating in the gov-
ernance initiative.
Phase II of the initiative
includes the opportunity for
participating organizations to


apply for project grants to
support governance building
work that addresses issues
identified in the board self-
assessments.
Governance project exam-
ples include strategic plan-
ning; creating and imple-
menting board development
plans; or revising committee
structure and bylaws.
Gulf Coast Community
Foundation of Venice is the
largest community founda-
tion in Florida, with assets of
$226 million.
Founded in late 1995, it has
awarded more than $69 mil-
lion in grants in the areas of
arts and culture, health and
human services, education,
civic affairs and the environ-
ment.

World's Largest Boat Sale



to be held by MarineMax

Punta Gorda location of nationwide sale to be held at the new Laishley Park Marina


PUNTA GORDA, FL -What do you do if you
are the world's largest boat dealer and have new
2008 models in route for delivery?
Jim Shepard, MarineMax Cape Haze General
Manager, explains, "We're overstocked. I don't
think we can park another boat on our lot and we
have new shipments on the way.

World's largest dealer is overstocked
and offers deals of a lifetime
on new and used boats
"I know if we held the World's Largest Boat Sale
that would help, and if we offer to sell our
remaining inventory of new and used boats
at the lowest prices of the year, that would
probably do the trick. So, that's exactly what we're
going to do, starting this Thursday, August 16.
"Sure," continued Shepard, "selling new and
used boats at these prices is unusual. But with new
boats on the way and no place to put them,
we have no other choice."
Just what kind of discounts can customers
expect? Shepard went on, "Customers can save
several ways. Manufacturers, like Sea Ray,
are offering their most aggressive incentives
of the year, like the Summer Never Ends
promotion, which can save customers up to
$100,000. In addition, MarineMax is offering
our own incentives."

Sea Ray offers it's most generous
incentives of the year with
Summer Never Ends savings
Our best selling Sea Ray, the Sea Ray 175 Sport
will be sold with payments as low as $169 a month*
to qualified customers!
"If that isn't enough," Shepard said,"we'll offer
used boat discounts as high as $50,000. For


example, we have a
2004 380 Sundancer,
stock number 64390.
It will be sold for
$50,000 off our
regular price, for
only $179,800!"
"Even though these
prices are low, no short
cuts will be taken on
what we're famous
for the MarineMax
experience!" Shepard
explained.
"At MarineMax,
there are never any
hidden charges. Even
freight and prep are
included. Our All-
Inclusive Value Pricing


also means that every
customer will get what they need to get on the
water, like a Go Boating Gear Kit which includes
Coast Guard safety equipment-even a full tank
of fuel!"
Every customer receives a professional
Captain's Delivery and orientation to feel totally
confident and comfortable in operating their boat,
whether you are a first-time boater or moving up
to a larger boat.
Only MarineMax creates exclusive events like
MarineMax Getaways!", (exclusive trips organized
by MarineMax so you can experience the boating
lifestyle with other owners) and classes for the
whole family. It all adds up to a total experience
you can't find anywhere else.
Sales managers have been instructed to move all
new and used boats, according to Shepard,
"I've never seen so much quality inventory on


one lot. We need to move these boats quickly.
Financing and insurance is available on the spot
with practically no down payment on approved
credit...We'll make it quick and easy for anyone
who's in the market for a good new or used boat
to get one at this sale for a very low price."
Shepard continued, "We really want to move
boats during this sale. Our finance managers
will be on site to secure very low finance rates."
The Punta Gorda location of the World's
Largest Boat Sale will be heldThursday, August 16
through Sunday, August 19 at the new Laishley
Park Marina, 100 East Retta Esplanade. Located
in Charlotte Harbor, on the north side of the
U.S. 41 bridges in Punta Gorda.


* Financing offers are with approved credit. Sea Ray 175; 10% down, 144 months, 8.99% APR. Incentives are available on most but not all models, and expire on 8/31/07. See dealer for complete details.

Venice High School junior
Mark Cox, who last year won
a gold medal at state, has
qualified to be a member of
the 2008 U.S. National Swim
Team. He will compete in the
200-meter butterfly at the
U.S. Nationals next August in
Indianapolis.
Cox made the cut for the
U.S. National Team at a zone
meet in Texas July 31-Aug. 4,
where he set a new zone
record in the butterfly with a
time of 2:05.08. The butterfly
is his main event.
At last year's Class 3A State
Swimming Finals, Cox set a
new school record in the 100-
meter butterfly and earned
the first individual gold ever
won by a Venice High swim-
mer. His time was 52.61 sec-
onds. He won a second state
medal with a sixth place, fin-
ish in the 200 freestyle.
It was the second appear-
ance at state for Cox, who
swam in the 200 freestyle and
200 medley at state his fresh-
man year. -
The high school swim sea-
son is fairly short, with the
first meet Sept. 8 and the state
meet Nov. 1-3. During the off-
season, Cox swims year-
round with the YMCA Sharks


Mark Cox


swim team and competes at
meets in Florida and around
the country.
In December he swam at
the Gator Invitational where
he won the 100 and 200 but-
terfly and was third in both
the 100 and 200 freestyle. At
the YMCA Nationals in April,
Cox was part of the winning
800 freestyle relay team and
was seventh in the 200 butter-
fly.
Races Olympic medalist
One of the biggest thrills
for Cox was racing against
eight-time Olympic gold


medalist Michael Phelps in
the 200 butterfly at the Mis-
souri Grand Prix in March.
Phelps' winning time of
1:53.72 was a new world
record. Since then, Phelps set
a new record in Melbourne,
Australia, of 1:52.09. Cox fin-
ished 12th at the Missouri
meet.
Cox said he is looking for-
ward to the high school sea-
son this year and working
with Venice High's new swim
coach, John Bruenning.
A Sarasota native, Bruen-
ning swam with the YMCA
Sharks from the age of 7
through college and still
holds several team records.
He was a member of the swim
team at the University of
South Carolina and, before
returning to florida, was
head assistant coach at
George .-Washington Univer-
sity for five years. In addition
to his coaching duties atVHS,
Bruenning is the aquatic
director at the YMCAs in
Venice and Englewood.

redevelopment projects


The Sarasota County Commission unanimously authorized a public hear-
ing to consider projects near and dear to Englewood, including stormwater
removal, the burial of overhead utilities and parking.


Watch and wait


BY STEVEN J. SMITH
STAFF WRITER


Englewood's long-awaited
revitalization has taken an-
other step forward.
The Sarasota County Com-
mission, convening as the
Community Redevelopment
Agency, has unanimously
authorized a public hearing to
address stormwater removal,
the burial of overhead utili-
ties, and parking three
issues that many agree stand
in the way of Olde Eng-
lewood's emergence as a
tourist destination. .
The public hearing has
been tentatively set for Oct.
23.
Those projects won't come
cheap. The stormwater pro-
ject is estimated at $6.4 mil-
lion, the overhead utilities
relocation totals $1.5 million
and parking stands at $7.7
million.

money would be available

HOW ABOUT A 'DIRTY MARTINI'? 5B


VHS GRAD EXCELS AT CITADEL 9B


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR

The Island Anglers will give
give new meaning to the
word "cast" on Saturday, Aug.
18.
Members of the Anglers (a
group of fishing enthusiasts
in Venice) will host their first
CA.S.T. for Kids event that
day, sharing their love of fish-
ing with more than 50 chil-
dren chosen by the Boys and
Girls Clubs of Sarasota
County.
Members have been plan-
ning for this event for
months, collecting money,
fishing equipment, volun-
teers, hats, T-shirts and more


to make sure that the boys
and girls not only have a great
day of fishing but that they
will take home more than
memories.
"I didn't realize what my
kid got out of fishing with me
all those years until he said to
me 'I want to do what you
do,'" angler Mike Zgrabik
said.
Saturday, the children and
adults participating in the
event at the Venice Fishing
Pier will participate in a pro-
gram that has grown to be
national in scope since the
Catch A Special Thrill (CAST)
Foundation was formed in
1991. With the cooperation of
government agencies, local


businesses and many volun-
teers, the program teaches
the children appreciation for
natural resources and creates a
rare and positive experience for
the young people who learn
about the sport of fishing.
Many of the Venice anglers
were in Fort Myers for a simi-
lar event in June.
"A little kid caught a shark,"
Zgrabik said.
There are veryfew nights
when an Island Angler is not
at the pier with one or more
kids, hoping to catch the big
one.
"Once we turn them on to
fishing, that is all they want to
do," Zgrabik said. "When the
snook are running, they are


all catching."
Dennis Cavallo was at the
pier one Saturday night with
his father, Mike Cavallo, who
is one of the event organizers.
"It is the only pier I've been
to where everyone is fishing
for sharks," Dennis said.
The pier also is the only
-pier in the state that is handi-
cap accessible,
"That's what the cutouts
are for," Zgrabik said. "Rick
Tacy had a lot to do with that."
The pier also has places
where anglers can prepare
b'ait for their hooks and rinse
off their catches.
Karen Cavallo has become
one of the group's mothers,
fishing for bait for the young-


sters, cutting up shrimp to
bait hooks for the youngest
anglers and performing myri-
ad other motherly tasks. She
uses a special rod on which
she can set bait for 10 or 12
small fish, which will then be
used as bait for larger fish.
Mother's work is never done.
Money and gear
With the event drawing
near, the anglers have step-
ped up their fund-raising
efforts to make sure that
every child who comes to fish
will go home with a complete
set of gear, a hat and T-shirt as
well as a new hobby.
Brett Jacob, 22, was there a
few days ago, bringing money


and pledges totaling $625 for
the event.
Barry Garman, whose
daughter Dilynn Garman, 9;
is one of the younger mem-
bers of the Island Anglers,
arrived at the pier Saturday
night with news of donated
gear from Cook's Sportland
and gift certificates from
Lucky Dog and Kingfish Cafe.
Garman is looking forward to
the return of his son Barry
Garman Jr., who has complet-
ed a tour in Iraq. Both Junior
and Senior are avid fisher-
men. Garman said there is a
whole list of donors to the
event on the club's Web site.

... The News from Ecineville


BY TED RANK
STAFF ESCRITOR


Hang on to your sanity,
ladies and gentlemen. It's
time for News from Ecine-
ville.
National Security Agency
Emergency Action Message,
Coded "117 Apple Tango
Bravo 34573" was released
Monday at 13:47 hours.
An NSA EAM carries the
highest security clearance in
the United States, known as
Sensitive Compartmented
Information (SCI).
The NSA, which doesn't
even admit it exists, will not
discuss EAMs.
The "And Now the News
from Ecineville" (ANNE)
news staff has obtained a co-


py of the EAM message.
(I didn't know we had a
staff, I thought it was just ...
We don't have a staff. Well,
then why does it say it the
fifth graph "news staff"? ... It
made it sound more impor-
tant. Ah, I see.)
The EAM message was
.released nationwide to NS-
approved law enforcement
agencies, including the Ecine-
ville Police Department.
An EPD source gave one
of our ANNE staff investiga-
tive reporters a copy of the
EAM. EPD has NSAs highest
security clearance? That
can't be right. Somebody call
ScotlandYard.
"There is credible action-
able evidence that al-Cato
terrorists are infiltrating the


United States of America in
two new, potentially deadly
ways. Entrepreneuring young
professionals with clean-
shaven faces, wearing white
shirts and ties and posing as
salesmen, computer techni-
cians and other mainstream,
responsible career men are
joining small-town Young
Professional Clubs, and mid-
dle-aged couples posing as
Midwesterners are moving
to southern states and enter-
ing small-town Newcomers
Clubs," the summary section
of the NSA report said.
EPD Chief Trudy Redford
immediately ordered the
EPD to go to condition PRCA.
That's police lingo for "Pay
really close attention."
This EAM could not have


come at a worse time for the
Ecineville Area Young Pro-
fessional club, which meets
Monday at 6 p.m., at the
Rockin' Hip BBQ Restaurant,
4 One Way.
You see, Redford wasn't
taking any chances. She
wasn't letting any al-Cato ter-
rorists infiltrate our fair city.
Ecineville Police Lt. Dave
Gerlick was placed in charge
of "Operation Stop the Yup-
pies."
EPD Swat Pair took up
two concealed positions
overlooking the front door of
the Rockin' Hip at 5 p.m., led
of course by EPD SWAT Pair
member Lt. Mike Kiren.
Kiren was promoted in July.
In all, 84 city, county and
state law enforcement per-


sonnel completely surprised
the 41 EAYP members as
they tried to enter the restau-
rant.
Thankfully, EPD has re-
ported all 41 EAYP have been
extensively interviewed by
the nice people in the CIA,
and they are all innocent.
Their plane from island
Abuc is expected to fly in to
Ecineville at 4 p.m. today.
The Ecineville Newco-
mers Club will be there to
greet them.
Well, this is Ted "I'm a re-
porter, I'm a reporter" Rank
reporting. I'll see you next
issue with more news from
Ecineville. Until then, reme-
mber, we're on security level
"Severe" here in Ecineville.

BLOOD BANK WINS AWARDS FOR BOOTS AND BADGES


Here's a simple way to
conserve electricity. Find
the temperature control on
your water heater. Check
where the temperature is
set. If it is higher than 120
degrees, turn it down to this
temperature. This will take
care of most of your hot
water needs and save you
money. Additionally, a water
heater insulation blanket
can help reduce water heat-
ing costs by about 2 percent.
For most homes the elec-
tric water heater is the sec-
ond largest user of energy
Water heating normally uses
15 percent to 25 percent of
all home energy usage.

Sue Giordano Rob Arbuckle Kerri Marshall

I've been advertising with the Venice Gondolier since Left
Coast Seafood opened in March of 2002 wanting to build
a local customer base what better venue than the
hometown newspaper! The green sheet was instrumental
in building name recognition, and product awareness.

Over the years as things change, so has our
advertising needs. Kerri Marshall, our sales
representative, has been tremendously helpful with fresh
ideas. She created a map in our ad to help our customers
maneuver through the road construction & become aware
of the easiest access to Left Coast Seafood. Kerri has offered
an understanding of our needs and a level of service that
is EXCEPTIONAL.

Going green isn't the same for eve


JOE GIORGIANNI
HUMOR COLUMNIST

In case you missed it, the
rCongress of the United States
just got greener by voting
themselves another raise in
pay. Their annual stipend is
now a paltry $170,000 a year.
Or put another way, they
will be taking nearly $2 mil-
lion more every year out of
our pockets. This, by the way,
is for laboring over and mak-
ing decisions that the majori-


ty of the populace in this
country would and could
make with a finger snap-.
Now in all fairness, I did
note that they those in the
esteemed Congress recent-
ly voted down a law that
would have allowed the
import of polar bear parts
from Canada. Apparently the
melting icecap isn't helping
their population.
Imports would include
claws, heads and other pieces
of polar bear anatomy that
American hunters of polar
bears might have desired to
bring across the border.
I'm not sure how many
Americans hunt polar bears,
but it must be a significant
number for the United States
Congress to put this problem
on their agenda.
Now if this doesn't put a
wad in your knickers, think
about those in the Congress


who are enjoying their share
of the $74 million we pay
them everyyear, not counting
free health care for them and
their families for life, and a
retirement allotment, even
after serving but one term.
Last year the average
retirement payout, per retired
Congressman, was almost
$56,000. Not bad for working
less than six months out of
the year, less than that if you
count vacation time. This is
money that comes from the
Civil Service Retirement
Fund, which, of course, is
funded by the taxpayers.
It's comforting to know
that our tax dollars enable the
likes of Congressman William
J. Jefferson from Louisiana to
keep cold cash in his deep
freeze. He was, by the way, re-
elected after being caught on
camera taking the bribe that
was later found in his freezer.

I admit that I'm confused as
to how he should even be in
office, let alone be given a
$4,400 annual raise.
One issue I wish these
overpaid, underworked pun-
dits would tackle is the envi-
ronment, which, according to
many learned persons, is in
serious trouble.
On the other hand, there
are some consumers who
think they are doing their
share of environmental pro-
tection by buying such things
as hybrid automobiles. Gran-
ted, there are some hybrids
that will benefit the environ-
ment and help with the petro
problem we are encounter-
ing. But purchasing a hybrid
Lexus LS 600 L Model for
$104,000, an automobile that
gets a mere 22 miles to a gal-
lon of gasoline, is an effort
hardly considered worthy.
I have driven a hybrid forl


the past few years and I can
tell you I relish the 50-plus
miles per gallon that I get in
performance.
One has to admire the
attempt of commerce to sati-
ate the environment: making
golf balls from compressed
fish food, or slipping on a pair
of organic cotton Levi's (for a
mere $245 a pair). One even
has to admire the Home
Depot Corporation's new
Eco Options program, which
allows a shopper to browse
more than 60,000 items
deemed environmentally
beneficial.
But the most help seems to
be coming from people like
Rep. Henry Waxman of Cal-
ifornia, who introduced the
Safe Climate Act of 2006. See
any changes? Once again, the
lobbyists prevail.
Others, including Arnold
Schwarzenegger, governor of

Bless the bus this Friday


KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR


Blessings
Friday at 1 p.m. "Billy" and
"Sally" will be formally
blessed during a bus blessing
ceremony at the Salvation
Army of Venice headquarters,
1051 Albee Farm Road. Billy
and Sally are the Army's two
new buses and will be used
for a variety of programs
including the JOYprogram for
Seniors and the Salvation
Army's after-school program
for youngsters in the commu-
nity. The Billy bus is being
named for William Booth, the
founder of the Salvation
Army, and the Sally bus as a
shortened form of Salvation.
Sing out
The Venice Gondoliers


Barbershop Chorus meets
every Monday at 6:30 p.m. at
the Venice-Nokomis United
Methodist Church on Palm
Avenue, in Nokomis. To learn
more about the group and its
concerts and other activities,
visit venicegondoliers.com or
call 966-4321. Wayne Hart is
the president of the group.
Getting hammered
The Sarasota Opera House,
which began life as the old
Edwards Theater in 1926, is all
torn up. The last time I passed
by there were gaping holes
where once there were win-
dows, people hammering
things on the roof and scaf-
folding above the front side-
walk. The disaster zone is all
part of a well-conceived plan
for a better opera house in
time for the 2008 Winter
Opera Festival, which will
open on March 1 with Verdi's
"Rigoletto." Funding for the
work is from the opera's cur-
rent $60-million capital cam-
paign, Building on the Vision,
the largest campaign under-
taken by the company, one of
seven in the nation to own its
own opera house.
The 48th season closed last
March with ticket sales


exceeding 102 percent of
capacity. When the multi-mil-
lion dollar renovation is com-
plete, there will be a new, larg-
er orchestra pit that will facil-
itate a broader selection of
operas, large club rooms and
more seating in the balcony
plus reconfigured boxes and
aisles downstairs. Decorative
details original to 1926 will be
restored and all the seating
will be replaced.
Work on the backstage sys-
tems began even before the
1997 festival season, enhanc-
ing all the operas with new
lighting capabilities and will
be augmented with still more
improvements for the coming
season.
The coming season will
include Puccini's "La Ron-
dine," Verdi's rarely-heard "I
due Foscari" (The Two Fos-
cari) and conclude with
Mozart's "Cosl fan tutte." The
season will run through April
13. Subscriptions for the
coming season are now on
sale and single tickets will be
available beginning Oct. 1.
The Sarasota Opera House
is at 61 N. Pineapple Ave.,
Sarasota. For tickets, call 366-
9450.

Name inspiration from


galaxies far, far away


BY PATRICK T. REARDON
GUEST WRITER

It used to be that parents
would look to the Bible or his-
tory or long-gone relatives to
find a name for their baby.
Then Mom and Dad began
looking to singers and sports
stars and movie actors and
actresses for inspiration.
Now comes Brooklyn
writer Robert Schnakenberg
with a new source: science
fiction characters.
His just-published book
"Sci-Fi Baby Names" (Quirk,
160 pages, $12.95) offers 500
monikers from the world of
Superman, Dr. Who, the
Enterprise and the Matrix.
You could go for something
truly odd, such as Tuvok, the
name of the Vulcan male
security guard in the TV series
"Star Trek: Voyager." Or for
something more mundane,
such as Ellen for Ellen
Ripley, the heroine of the four
'Alien" movies.
Some other examples from
the book:
-Ming: The tyrant ruler of


the planet Mongo, more com-
monly known as Ming the
Merciless, initially appeared
in the Flash Gordon comic
book (1934) and later in the
many subsequent movies.
Quote: "Pathetic earthlings!
Hurling your bodies out into
the void, without the slightest
inkling of who or what is out
there."
-Morpheus: A rebel
leader in the three "Matrix"
movies (1999-2003), Mor-
pheus wore cool sunglasses.
Quote: "No one can be told
what the Matrix is. You have
to see it for yourself."
-Amidala: First seen as
Padme Amidala in "Star Wars:
The Phantom Menace"
(1999), she was later Queen
Amidala of Naboo. Quote: "If
we do not act quickly, all will
be lost forever."
-Lara: Superman's moth-
er was married to scientist
Jor-El on the planet Krypton,
first seen in the "Superman"
comic strip (1939). Ap-
parently Lara had little to say,
because Schnakenberg pro-
vides no quote of hers.

Aerospace courses for high school students


-SPECIAL TO THE
GONDOLIER SUN


The Charlotte County
Public School system has
teamed up with Embry-Riddle
Aeronautical University, the
world's leading and largest
fully accredited university spe-
cializing in aviation and aero-
space education.
They will provide college
.aerospace course to public
high school students of
Southwest Florida. These
courses will prepare students
for dozens of aerospace
careers including: profession-
al pilot; aerospace, civil, com-


puter, electrical, mechanical,
software engineering; meteo-
rology; air traffic control; avi-
ation management; aviation
business administration; air-
frame and power plant me-
chanics; global security and
intelligence studies; space
operations including astronaut
and mission control.
The program is offered at
no cost to students. Paired
with the Charlotte Edison
Collegiate Institute program,
students can complete up to
two years of college prior to
their high school graduation.
These courses are directly
transferable at Embry-Riddle,


and students can apply Bright
Futures Scholarship toward
tuition.
The first year of the pro-
gram is an introduction to
aerospace course, designed
to give students a strong
base-level knowledge which
will help them into college
level courses.
Embry-Riddle is also de-
veloping a middle-school
lead-in program that will fur-
ther improve student's suc-
cess. Students may enter the
program at any grade level in
any semester, but the maxi-
mum college credit will be
attained if students begin in


their freshman year of high
school.
An aviation club at each
high school and technical
center has been established
for like-minded students
to further their aerospace
knowledge. Future plans
include increasing the num-
ber and sophistication of
flight simulators, acquiring
aircraft for maintenance
facilities, and possible ad-
ding flight training for
seniors.
For more information, call
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical
University at 586-6257 or e-
mail webere@erau.edu.

Also there is more informa-
tion on the event and other
work of C.A.S.T. at cast-
forkids.org.
Zgrabik said Admiralty
Marine makes sure the motor
on his boat, Reel Addiction, is
always in good working order.
"I don't have to pay a
thing," Zgrabik said. "They do
it for the kids."


Zgrabik regularly takes
kids out fishing but when he
talks about the CA.S.T. event,
his face lights up.
"For four hours I have their
undivided attention," he said.'
"You'd be amazed what you
can get out of a kid one on
one."
Saturday, the Island Ang-
lers will do what they do most


every day share a love of
fishing with some children
who may never have fished
before. At day's end, more
than 50 young people will
likely be hooked on a new
sport. They will take home
more than memories. Each
child will go home with a
complete set of fishing gear,
including a new rod and reel


and tackle box.
"There are a thousand fi:
ing clubs out there," Zgral
said. "We want to do more.

BY TOMMY MCINTYRE
STAFF WRITER
Casey J. King, a 2004
Venice High School gradu-
ate and senior at one of the
nation's premier military
schools, has already estab-
lished a legacy.
King, a senior at The
Citadel in Charleston, S.C.,
participated in the CNN
YouTube Democratic de-
bate July 23. He was also


chosen along with other
high-ranking cadets to
escort the Democratic
hopefuls during their stay
at the school.
King had his picture
taken with Hillary Clinton,
Barak Obama and John
Edwards.
In addition, King was
selected as a member of
the Summerall Guards, the
prestigious, elite, silent drill
team.


The Summerall Guards
are the elite senior drill pla-
toon of The Citadel. The
drill has remained un-
changed since its inaugural
year in 1932. The Citadel
Series performed by the
Guard is based on the
Prussian high step and
German close order drill.
No written records of
the drill will be found
because this truly unique
series is performed only at


The Citadel.
Furthermore, it is not
passed down by written
record, but strictly by ver-
bal instruction.
The Summerall Guards
have achieved worldwide
recognition from their ap-
pearance at various sport-
ing events, parades and
official functions through-
out the United States.

Venice Yacht Club meets the Indians


FRANT VALENCC
SOCIAL COLUMNIST


Hurray, State

Champions

Joe Fanciulli and Fleet
Captain Joe Pokorney decid-
ed Venice Yacht Club mem-
bers should meet the Venice
High School State Champion
baseball team. Coaches Craig
Faulkner, Jose Velez and Jeff
Callan accompanied several
players to a luncheon at the
club.
"To be able to bring a state
title to this community is
pretty special for me," Faulk-
ner told the group.
"Our No. 1 goal is making a
difference in these young
men's lives," he added. He
told yacht club members the
team was involved in com-
munity service. The boys
spent an afternoon at
Summerville interacting with
residents, playing chess with
them and entertaining them
with music that included the
guitar and piano.
The team extended an
invitation to Summerville res-
idents to attend a Venice
Indians baseball game and
enjoyed seeing their new
friends at the game.
The Venice Indians hosted
Challenger Baseball and
helped out at a Habitat For
Humanity site.
At the luncheon, one by
)- one the players stood up and
introduced themselves and
spoke about the year. By the
time they finished, everyone
at the luncheon knew these
young men were not just state
champion baseball players.
They were champions in their
hearts destined for continued
success.
Yacht club commodore
Audrey Rice presented Faulk-
ner with a certificate to com-
memorate the afternoon. She
also announced the players
and coaches would be guests
on several boats for a ride in
the Christmas Boat Parade.
Later in the week, the
Venice Indians traveled north
to Tropicana Field along with
nearly 200 of their fans. The
Tampa Bay Devil Rays invited
state champions for a special
recognition. The team stood
along the third base line and
was recognized as the state
champions and the boys even
got to see their final out of the
state championship game on
the big screen.
The left field stands shook
with excitement Venice fans
rock. A sea of green and white
let everyone at Tropicana
Field know we love our Venice
Indians. The regular fans who
followed the team all season
finished the year by giving
one more cheer at Tropicana
Field.
The afternoon was ftnm and
included the Venice section
keeping the wave going. It
was a perfect ending to a per-
fect year. Go Indians.
One of our best
The special person of this
week is Nick Hernandez. He
worked in the concession
stand nearly all of the 2007
Venice Indians baseball sea-
son. When he wasn't helping
his mom and the boosters
selling refreshments, he was
in the bleachers cheering for
his brother, Pete, the catcher
for the Venice Indians.
Hernandez always had a
smile and greeting for every-
one. He is one of the young
Venice Indians fans who help
make Venice a terrific place to
live.
