Tra Ponti


ready for

approval


BY GREG GILES
NEWS EDITOR


City planners and Water-
ford Waterfront Properties
have finally worked out the
final impediment to approval
ofTra Ponti on the Waterfront,s
a 290-condo/hotel unit pro-
ject planned on the Intra-
coastal waterway between
Venice Avenue Bridge and
East Tampa Avenue.
Tra Ponti is the fourth and
final phase of the waterfront
project that began a decade
ago.
Plans originally called for
nine stories, but that was
reduced to seven stories, then
six stories following public
input.
Early plans changed from
one large block building to
four separate buildings sepa-
rated by a piazza deck with
pool.
Tuesday's action involves
final approval of a rezone to
mixed-use development on
two parcels, and sign-off on
an agreement by the city to
vacate a portion of the 20-foot
wide alleyway referred to as
Calle Del Canal.
. In return, the applicant will.
install a new gravity sewer
manhole and convey to the
city all necessary easements
for existing utilities, and a 24-
foot wide easement along the
eastern boundary from
Tampa Avenue to East Venice

Because of a family effort
led by James Fong, 12, of
Nokomis, Dick and Eva Fong
of Ambler, Penn., were
named Grandparents of the
Year.
They and grandparents
across the United States are
being honored today, Sept. 9,
National Grandparents Day, a
national holiday declared by
President Jimmy Carter in
1978 and founded by Marian
McQuade ofWest Virginia.
The Fongs, parents of Dr.
Jonathan Fong of Nokomis,
Ruth of Pittsburgh, Christine
of Chicago and Rebecca of
Ashburn,Va., are retired phar-
macists..
Serendipity had a hand in
the Fongs' selection over the
thousands of eligible grand-
parents in the United States
(there were more than 4,000
entries in this year's contest).
In the midst of coordinat-
ing plans for a Fong family
reunion in the Poconos and
her father-in-law's 70th birth-
day, James' mother, Sophia,
happened upon the National
Grandparents Day Web site.
She mentioned it to James
and by the time all the Fongs
had arrived at the resort,
James was planning the entry.
The entry became a
reunion project. James drew

person sign his or her appro-
priate tree leaf on branches
growing out of Philadelphia
toward Illinois, Florida,
Western Pennsylvania and
Virginia. The family roots
drop below a U.S. flag toward
Hong Kong..

On a second page, Jon-
athan created a legend featur-
ing Chinese calligraphy,
which translates to: The Fong
Family Tree. Other symbols
used on the legend are a
Chinese dragon to represent
the family's heritage; the,


Hong Kong city flower,
bouinea blakeana; the
Virginia flower, the American
dogwood; the Illinois state
flower, native violet; the
Florida state flower, the
orange blossom; the Penn-
sylvania state flower, the,
mountain laurel; and a cross


to represent the family's
"Christian faith that binds us
together."
"Honoring our grandpar-
ents was our primary reason
for entering the contest,"
Sophia said. "We also want to
emphasize that the entire
family collaborated on the
project during our reunion.
James (the oldest of 12 grand-
children) wrote a very nice
cover letter and submitted
the reunion picture and fami-
ly tree to the contest on behalf
of all his cousins."
James, who will be 13 on
Sept. 12, is in the eighth grade
at Pine View School. His
younger brother Alex, 10, is in
the fifth grade at Pine View.
The entry went into the
mail on Aug. 3. The contest
deadline was Aug. 10.
"We just made the dead-
line," Sophia said. "We got a
call that night. We were in
Miami and we thought they
were calling to ask for more
information or something."
The Fongs returned the
call and when James got on
the phone, he was told, "You
won!"
"We are thrilled as a family
that grandparents, Dick and
Eva Fong, have been dubbed
'National Grandparents of the
Year,' Sophia said. "We still
can't believe we won the
grand prize."

Venice Art Center runs on the help of volunteers

Make A Difference


BY SUSAN CAIRO
STAFF WRITER


Trish Kinghorn volunteers
at the Venice Art Center. In
fact, it is one of the reasons
she and her husband moved
here.
"It is just wonderful being
around such talent," she


said. "I keep hoping that
someday some of it will rub
off on me."
Kinghorn has a degree
from Parsons School of
Design in Decorative Arts,
but she worked as a math
teacher in New Jersey. A vol-
unteer since 1998, she found
that the VAC is a place for cre-


active people to get their daily
culture fix.
'Actually, I am a very ama-
teur artist," she said.
Keeping her creativity
active was one of her goals
when she decided to volun-
teer.
"This place is a gem,"
Kinghorn said. "It is filled
with color and glamour and
it brings talented people
together."
The VAC is the oldest and
largest'community art center
on Florida's cultural coast. It
always has exhibits, art
camps and workshops. The
VAC has five separate venues
for display of art and sculp-
ture.
"Volunteers are the back-

Barbara Freeman, president


of the VAC board. "We could-

You don't have to have any
artistic talent to volunteer.
There are a great many inter-
esting projects, Freeman
said:
The VAC gives art and
artists support and visibility
in the community. It pro-
vides art classes and afford-
able studio and gallery space.
This summer there were
free youth concerts showcas-
ing local musical talent.
Educational gallery lectures
by local artists are offered to
the community.

BY JOE "FASTHORSE" HARRILL


CHARLIE McDONALD helped restore the historic USS
Constitution, the wooden warship nicknamed "Old Ironsides"
for its fame in the War of 1812. The historic three-masted
frigate, the oldest commissioned ship in the world still afloat, is
once again seaworthy. Old Ironsides is now on public display in
Boston Harbor.

For whom
the phone rings


ILED BY


;1 With about 50 people in the
audience Tuesday, Venice
Planning Commissioner Chair
:ohn Osmulski made a point of
,asking everyone to turn off
their cell phones to avoid dis-
rupting the meeting.
In spite of the warning, just
Xr nutes later a cell phone rang
-- Osmulski's.
"I had it set to vibrate," he
said. "I can't understand this. I
apologize."
Solar schools?
"Not far at all."
That was the response by
Director of Facilities Services
,for Sarasota County School
~oard Jody Dumas, to a ques-
tion by Board Member Carol
,Todd who wanted to know
how far staff were in explor-
;ing solar energy.
Staff were directed to look
jat new ways' to save on new
school construction.
They provided a substan-
itial list of areas that might
provide cost savings for ele-
nmentary schools, but solar
energy wasn't among them.
The last solar experience
'for county schools was in
1984 when Venice Middle
$School installed a solar hot
*water system.
a But kids "threw stuff at it"
'and broke it, according to
Chuck Collins, director of
construction schools.
Todd said the technology


has changed considerably
since then.
The board then directed to
look into the matter further.
Tiger Bay club hits goal
Once the word got out, it
took only a week before the
upstart South County Tiger
Bay Club reached its goal of
100 charter members.
It's still accepting mem-
bers to beef up the North Port
and Englewood membership,
according to founder Steve


Albee. Those invited have until
Sept. 25 to respond to be con-
sidered charter members.
Future members will have to
be sponsored by a charter
member.
The list of members
includes current, former and
aspiring local politicians (Fred
Hammett, Michael Grant,
Nancy Detert, Ed Martin, Sue
Lang), board appointees (Nick
Carlucci, Susan Balsinger, Janis
Fawn, Richard Appell), a coun-
ty commissioner (Jon Thax-


ton), attorneys (the Boones
and a number of others),
business owners (the Tramm-
ells), a publisher (the Gon-
dolier Sun's Bob Vedder), an
inventor (Bob Rigby) and
civic leaders (Teri Hansen,
Kathy Baylis), among others.
The first SCTBC meeting
will be Friday, Oct. 5,12 p.m.-
1:30 p.m., at the Venetian Golf
& River Club. Cost is $20.
Membership in the club is
required in order to attend,
the first meeting.


Next: a Florida volcano?

In this record-setting hurri-
cane season, a storm named
Erin might have set the -
strangest record of all.
The fifth-named storm of
2007 developed in the Gulf of
Mexico and didn't strengthen
before moving into Texas Aug.
15 as a tropical storm. When a
storm makes landfall, it usual-
ly weakens quickly and dissi- "
pates.
Erin didn't.
It curved up to Oklahoma
and blew sustained hurricane
winds over hot prairies. Now
experts are asking if this "land-
phoon" should be recorded as TROPICAL BOB
Hurricane Erin. WEATHER COMMENTS
Imagine selling hurricane
insurance ... in Oklahoma.

BY GEORGE MCGINN
STAFF WRITER

Sarasota County Sheriff
Bill Balkwill announced Wed-
nesday he will be closing the
South County Jail on Sept. 30
because he cannot get the
$750,000 additional needed
to keep it open.
That decision isn't sitting


well with officials in Venice
and North Port, the cities
served by the jail.
In particular, Venice Mayor
Fred Hammett objected to
the impression the city does-
n't support the facility finan-
cially.
"During the past 30-plus
years, the city of Venice paid
all building maintenance and


utilities costs for the
County jail operations
mmett stated in a
release.

South County jail operations

costs.
In April 1990, Venice
opened its new police depart-
ment and jail facility at the
current location on Ridge-
wood Avenue. A year later, on
April 22, 1991, through a writ-
ten interlocal agency agree-
ment, Sarasota County ag-
reed that it was more logical
and fair to regard this new jail
as the South County regional
holding facility.
Some funds from the dual-
taxation settlement between
Sarasota County and its cities
were used toward the regional
g expense of improving the
MCGINN holding facility.
Hammett has notified
he County Commission Chair
Nora ,Patterson and North
Port Commission Chair
South Barbara Gross of Venice's his-

press ments to support law

ending Terry Lewis is concerned
about the budget implica2
tions of closing the jail.
"We have to maintain min-
y the imum staffing levels, and if I
y the have an officer tied up for four
trdayt or five hours, we have to bring
ck at in another officer on overtime
for coverage," Lewis said.
Lewis said the police de


apartment planned its budget
based on the South County
Jail staying open.
'Prove it'
North Port Commissioner
Vanessa Carusone said it is
not fair for the county to put.
city residents into the posi-'
tion of paying more for ser-
vices they are already sup-.,
posed to be paying ,for:,
through taxes.
"The county commission-
ers need to bite the bullet and
find the money to fund the
South County Jail." she said
Carusone said the county
has reserve funds, or capital
improvement projects in
North County that can be put
on hold.
"(The county commission-
ers) say they are not biased
against South County, and now


is the time to prove it,"
Carusone said. "We are not
talking about the county find-
ing millions and millions of
dollars to keep the local jail
open."
County arrest records show
an average of 75 arrests made
eachday, or more than 27,000 a
year.
South County Jail processes
about 5,000 of these arrests a
year, according to Lewis. The
arrests come from North Port,
Venice, South County deputies
and Florida Highway Patrol
making arrests in the South
County area.
The North County Jail cur-
rently serves Longboat Key
Sarasota Police Department;
Sarasota County Sheriff's
office, FHP and the Depart-
ment of Corrections Probat-
ioniand Parole Department.

Sarasota County commis-
sioners expressed frustration
this week about outgoing
Sheriff William Balkwill's plans
to shut down the Venice hold-
ing facilityas part of an ongoing
budget battle.
"This is a management of
resources problem, which is a
complaint I've always had with
the sheriff," said Commissioner
Paul Mercier. "Its how he man-
ages those resources -
whether they're monies or

shifts. I can't believe he can't
make it all fit. And I'm disap-
pointed he took this ploy."
Balkwill announced Wed-
nesday he would close the
Venice holding facility on
Sept. 30 in response to the
county's demands that he
stay within his $88.3 million
budget.
Balkwill's announcement,
recorded in a letter addressed'
to Commission Chair Nora
Patterson, expressed his dis-
appointment at the unani-
mous decision of the county

Old building at VHS

tested for asbestos


BY COURTNEY LINN
.STAFF WRITER

When a janitor noticed
some white powder falling
out of a cracked concrete wall
in building 24 of Venice High
School, the room had to be
-closed down.
The white powder, accord-
ing to Jody Dumas, director of
facilities for the Sarasota
County School district, was
determined to be vermiculite,
a type of fireproof sealant
used on concrete.
The potential danger of
vermiculite, which is not used
anymore, is it can contain
asbestos.
Building 24 is one of the
oldest buildings at VHS, dat-
ing back to the 1950s.
"In these old buildings,
asbestos can be quite com-
mon," Dumas said.
Taking precautions
The school district is taking
precautions to ensure there is
no asbestos in the school.
The white powder was col-
lected and sent to Oc-
cupational Health Con-


servation Inc. to be tested for
asbestos, said Dumas.
The first test came back
negative, he said.
In addition, he had all the
air around and inside build-
ing 24 tested for an asbestos
contamination.
"When it's airborne, it's
especially dangerous," he
said.
Dumas and his team found
no airborne contamination. If
they had, they would have
had to contain the asbestos
with a type of sealant. They
also would have to remove
the asbestos from the wall.
On Friday, he and his team
were waiting for results from
a second lab to be certain
there was no asbestos.
"I'm feeling pretty darn
sure it's going to come back
negative," he said.
Once the second lab's
results are in, Dumas plans on
working with a team over the
weekend to repair the room.
Dumas said he hoped stu-
dents would be back in build-
ing 24 by Monday.

Absent drama teacher fired


BY COURTNEY LINN
STAFF WRITER

Gloria Dalton, the head of
the drama department for
VHS, didn't show up for work
on the first day of school or
for the next two weeks.
Scott Lempe, chief operat-
ing officer for the Sarasota
County School District, said
the district considers that job
abandonment; Dalton was
fired.
But the matter goes back
further, to the end of the
2006-07 school year, when
arts positions, got cut. VHS
lost one of its drama teach-
ers, Sharon Ferguson, only
to get her back later in the
summer.
Before the end of the
school year, when Dalton was
the only drama teacher
remaining at VHS, she was
informed she was to teach
stagecraft.
However, according to
information provided by the
Sarasota Classified/Teachers
Association, Dalton said she
was not qualified to teach
stagecraft. She filed an appeal
against the district, with the
help of the SC/TA, when
Ferguson returned to her
position without picking up
the stagecraft classes.
According to the SC/TA,
Dalton did not want to teach





/al y / Kc e ln,1 / 7 i
BROUGHTTO YOU BY:



A division of Sun Coast Media Group, Inc.,
publishers of the Sun Herald Newspapers ,


stagecraft, in part because of
her inability to use the power
tools necessary to teach the
class.
'Bad deal'
The appeal process can go
all the way to the superinten-
dent if it cannot be resolved at
lower levels. Dalton went all
the way to the top.
A letter from Super-
intendent Gary Norris to
Dalton denied her, appeal.
Norris said in the letter he
believed Dalton to have suffi-
cient education to be able to
teach stagecraft.
Norris also wrote, "Most
importantly, you have worked
in the area of Theater and


supervising productions
since 1999."
In an earlier e-mail to the
district, Dalton said she had
filed Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
discrimination complaints
against the district and the
SC/TA before Norris had
made his decision to deny her
appeal.
However, no complaint
has shown up at the district
despite Dalton writing in an
e-mail to the district she had
filed one. (Dalton has filed a
previous EEOC complaint
against the district.)
The SC/TA has responded
to the EEOC complaint saying
the "'shotgun' allegation is


completely without factual
merit."
According to Lempe, no
one from the district has been
able to reach Dalton. At-
tempts were made to contact
her for an interview, and they
went unanswered or she
offered no comment.
Lempe said a substitute
teacher is handling Dalton's
classes and has been since
the start of the school year.
"Finding a drama teacher
two weeks into the school
year is not easy to do," Lempe
said. "The kids at Venice have
been dealt a bad deal."

ing 21 quilts by members of
the Manhattan Quilters Guild,
a group of professional fiber

signs and advertisements on
historic buildings.
Volunteers greeted the
designers and were able to
meet with them at a reception
in their honor.
"There is a reception every
three weeks," said Freeman.
"Volunteers meet the artists


and and hand out brochures
about membership to the
community."
Volunteer opportunities
The VAC has a gallery shop
that sells drawings, watercol-
ors, pastel oil and acrylic
paintings, jewelry, ceramics,
pottery, art glass, vases, small

up for art classes and camp
workshops; encourage new
memberships; and receive
and hang artwork for shows.
TheVAC runs on donations

visitors. It receives grants


from Gulf Coast Community
Foundation of Venice, but no
tax money for either operat-
ing or exhibition costs. Ad-

He's also served on three cor-
porate boards.
In Venice since 1994,
Martin is on the Golden
Beach Association Inc. board
and served on the Venice
Board of Zoning Appeals. He
is a consultant and donor to
Gulf Coast Community
Foundation of Venice and
serves other boards in the
area.
Sue Lang has been a spirit-
ed opponent of airport devel-
opment. She worked 22 years
for the city of Hartford, Conn.,
where she supervised afford-
able homeownership devel-
opment and financing pro-
grams before coming to
Venice in 2003.
She's currently president of
Venice Neighborhoods Co-
alition and serves on the
Council of Neighborhood
Associations board. She's also
a member of the Venice Area

League.
Ernie Zavodnyik is a
retired Chicago lawyer and
staff attorney for the Amer-
ican Bar Association. He ran
for city council last year and
lost by only 416 votes to John
Simmonds.
Zavodnyik believes that
now more than ever Venice
needs a voice that is respon-
sive to the residents of Venice
and their desire to maintain
its small-town charm.

Making cents
The challengers are hoping
the sum of their efforts will
have a greater effect than
their individual campaigns,
and will be a catalyst to
change the complexion of
what they perceive as a pro-
growth council.
"It's hard for an individual
to make a significant change,


on city council," Zavodnyik
said. "Voters ask themselves,
will it really change anything?
"If we put three on there, I
think a lot of voters would be
willing to give it a chance.
There's strength in numbers."
The trio hopes playing as a
team could produce benefits.
"Absolutely we have been
talking and coordinating our
campaigns to some degree,"
said Lang. "We are going to
share in the costs of advertis-
ing and take out more ads
than what each of us alone
might be able to do.
"Most of our supporters
are the same people, so we're
sharing volunteers to work on
different aspects oif the cam-
paign."
But it's the financial bot-
tom line where it could make
the most difference.
Lang points to the $10,000
spend on council races by the
CQG, and its impact on last
year's race between Sim-
monds and Zavodnyik, who
spent a couple of thousand
dollars. Simmonds won, but
the race was close.


"Clearly, we are prepared
they will raise more this year,
and we will raise more as
well," Lang said.

Staking out turf
Martin said each chal-
lenger will need to take an
independent stand on issues
such as airport development,
height restrictions and envi-
ronmental concerns, but they
agreed to participate in joint
activities where there is com-
mon interest.
"I want to reflect my own
concerns," he said. "We have
some common concerns
about overdevelopment of
the community and protec-
tion of the environment, so
we can share certain public
communications together."
"There are economies of
scale" to working together, he
said.
"The incumbents have the
backing of a powerful PAC,"
he added.
Martin says another distin-
guishing factor in his cam-
paign will be the method for
raising campaign funds.


"We are specifically not
accepting money from peo-
ple with (significant) material
financial interests who come
before city council," he said.
That means he won't
accept money from develop-
ers whose projects have
recently come, or will come,
before city council, so there is
not even the appearance of
improper influence.
"The whole thing, for me,
is leadership," Martin said.
"The planning for the air-
port has been a fiasco. We
need increased participation
by the public ... and more
questioning of petitioners to
elicit their rationale for
requesting special exceptions
that build beyond normal
zoning.
"Planning and manage-
ment are the reasons I got
elected to corporate boards
and I think I could make an
improvement there," Martin
said.
The general election is
Nov. 6. .

OUR VIEW


Democrats shouldn't make enemies in Florida


he Democratic National Committee,
in an alarming fit of pettiness and
petulance, ruled recently that dele-
gates selected in Florida's Jan. 29 pres-
idential primary would not be seated
because the date violates party rules intend-
ed to preserve the traditional role of New
Hampshire and Iowa in the primary process.
Forgetting the critical role Florida has
played in recent elections, the decision by
the DNC's rules committee ignores the fact
that Florida Democrats had little to no influ-
ence in picking the date.
The Jan. 29 primary for both Republican
and Democratic. nominees for president was
chosen by the Republican-dominated Leg-
islature and signed into law by Republican
Gov. Charlie Crist.
The ruling by the DNC would not
change the day Floridians go to the polls to
pick their party's candidate for president.


But in Florida's Democratic primary
process, the actual votes determine the
number of delegates each candidate wins.
Those delegates, who are pledged to vote
for their candidate in the national conven-
tion in Denver, would forfeit their votes,
leaving Florida's Democrats unrepresent-
ed,in the convention.
Florida is one of several states that moved
up their primary date in order to wield more
influence in the selection of presidential
candidates.
Iowa, which holds a caucus, and New
Hampshire, which conducts a primary elec-
tion, have traditionally held their presiden-
tial selection events in late January and early
February. The Republican and Democratic
national committees encouraged Nevada
and South Carolina to move up their prima-
ry dates to create a more diverse field of vot-
ers. South Carolina's primary is Jan. 29, the


same as Florida's.
That raises this question: If party officials
wanted diverse and representative early pri-
maries, why wouldn't Florida, which would
be the largest and most diverse of the early
primaries, fit the bill?
If tossingout all of Florida's delegates isn't
bad enough, the DNC's "solution" is worse.
The committee told its Florida officials they
could remedy the situation by holding a
binding, party-funded primary after Feb. 5,
the earliest date allowed by the party. Not
only would such as contest deliver a fraction
of the voters of the Jan. 29 date, it would add
more chaos to an already chaotic primary
process.
For Florida's voters, it would mean seeing
and hearing less of their prospective candi-
dates because campaign strategists would
be loath to spend time and moriey in a state
where the delegates don't count.


In reality, the. eventual Democratic
nominee, as the effective head of the party,
could void the DNC's rules and seat
Florida's delegate, but if those delegates
would have tipped the scale to one or
another candidate, the ruling could open
the possibility of a floor fight over the
party's nominee.
Both parties have known for years that the
primary process is broken. Traditional ele-
ments, such as Super Tuesday, which helped
cull pretenders from large primary fields, are
gone. Today, nomadic primary dates add
confusion to what is the second most impor-
tant vote cast every four years.
We urge the DNC to resolve the Florida
primary situation quickly and without dis-
enfranchising millions of voters. After that,
both parties need to get to work on resolv-
ing the primary mess before the.2012 elec-
tion.


You'd better watch out


BOB VEDDER
COLUMNIST


When Julie Williams was
made police chief, she said
the police department would
become more active.
She thought the number of
certain activities was well
'below what it should be for a
force this size. We asked if the
force was too big, as indicated
* by a consultant's report, and
she was unsure until she got
the department doing all it
should be.
She has lived up to her
word.
The area that has got the
most attention or at least
increased visibility-- is traffic
control. When we interviewed
the chief not long after she
came on the job, we com-
mented that it seemed as if
there were a lot more traffic
stops than there used to be.
She confirmed to us that was
the case. She indicated that
most of them were warnings.
While she certainly is right
that warnings are up, tickets
are up even more.
Warnings issued in July '06
compared to July of this year
went up from 307 to 421, a 37-
percent increase. However,
citations more than doubled,
from 191 last year to 398 this
year. You had better be care-
ful.
The extra citation certainly
helps pay for some fireworks
or a couple of those 10-per-
cent raises many of the city
department managers re-
ceived in a year of tight
money. Not enough to help
Little League, though.
The report sent to city
council for July showed that
misdemeanor arrests were up
but felony arrests were down,
for a net of about the same
amount of crime.
For the year so far there
have been 190 felonies and
misdemeanors more than
we want, but it still sounds
like a safe place. There were
377 other crimes through July.
It may surprise you, but
there were more than 2,100
calls for service in July alone
and year to date more than
8,700. That sounds like a lot of
calls.
In the more detailed report
that is sent in to the Florida
Department of Law En-
forcement and federal law en-
forcement called the Uniform


Crime Report, it is interesting
to see where the increases in
crime have been.
There have been many
areas of increased activity.
The area that is usually most
concerning is aggravated
assault; thank goodness, that
has almost no change. Simple
assaults, however, had about
an 80-percent increase 2006
to 2007, with 92 in 2007.
Larceny from motor vehi-
cles almost doubled while
that from homes decreased.
In total, in the first six months
of this year versus last there
have been about 100 more
larcenies. Auto thefts in-
creased from 7 to 10 in the
same period.
With the recent discovery
of a drug house in Golden
Beach, I was concerned the
incidence of drugs had
increased, and this report cer-
tainly bears that out. There
was about a 36-percent year-
over-year increase in drug
and drug paraphernalia
arrests. That couples with an
increase in DUIs.
One part of the current
report given to council shows
how much use the marine
patrol gets and how effective
it is.
For instance, in July it had
149 hours of patrol, or about
30 a week (assuming a five-
week month). There were 43
violations, including 20 man-
atee zone violations, 10 for
restricted areas and 13 safety
violations, like no life jacket.
They also check registrations
and had six of these viola-
tions.
It would seem the chief has
in fact made the department
more active, particularly
handing out warnings and
citations. It also seems there
is a rather significant increase
in crime.
This usually happens
when economic conditions
worsen. When unemploy-
ment goes up, so does the
crime rate, and it seems to be
holding pretty true to past
history.
More than ever you should
be careful with your posses-
sions. Stolen property in the
first six months of '07 had a
value of more than $1.1 mil-
lion, just less than twice what
it was a year ago. That might
also explain how people are
feeding their drug habits.
It certainly looks like the
chief and staff are busy keep-
ing our little city relatively
safe.

LETTERS FROM OUR READERS


Learn a lesson from Washington D.C.


Editor:
Bravo to Venice government leaders for opposing the
roundabout the county plans to build at the East Ven-
ice/Jacaranda intersection. I think most South County resi-
dents agree with them.
More than 200 years ago the founding fathers chose the
famous French engineer/architect Pierre L'Enfant to design the
nation's new capitol. They chose a visionary architect, Andrew
Ellicott, to assist him. Inspired by the grandeur of Paris, they
produced a magnificent plan with broad avenues, a central
mall and monumental circles.
The streets and circles served horse-drawn carriages, wag-
ons and streetcars well, but the development of automobiles
for passenger and freight transportation changed the picture.
Development, around the circles precluded expanding the
roadways. In critical situations they resorted to building tun-
nels under the circles to accommodate traffic. Even so, turning
traffic backs up.
Large circles are more practical. The circle at the Memorial
Bridge entrance to D.C. from Virginia is so large that the build-
ing housing the Lincoln Memorial and the surrounding land-
scaping is built in the center of the circle. The two- and later
three-lane circle proposed for the Venice Avenue site will never
accommodate such structures.
If the county follows through with the current proposal, the
surrounding area will be developed. By the time vehicle traffic
is compromised, it will be too late and more expensive solu-
tions will have to be considered.
The intersection is a principal access to the interstate, and
traffic will continue to expand. It will not take an engineer's
education to recognize a traffic problem.

Jail is not the
place to be

Editor:
Once again I write in
regard to Sarasota County jail
- the building, the opera-
tions and tasks done at that
detention center.
It is true, I am annoyed that
the Department of Cor-
rections would operate a
facility in this manner. Health
care is available and health
care officials are on duty;
however, reviewing medical
treatment is difficult as


requests in writing are to be
filled out by those inmates
seeking such. Often requests
are not available or become
lost or misplaced.
Lock down, when inmates
no longer have privileges to
the day room, is at 10 p.m. An
officer does rounds once an
hour, opening the doors to
the day room, walking quick-
ly by, usually with a flashlight.
It would be difficult to notify
someone if there was an
emergency, as inmates are
locked in individual cells,
which may hold two or more


inmates.
One blanket is issued even
if it's freezing in the summer-
time, and two during those
few short weeks of winter.
Pencils and paper are offered
at the commissary, as are
other items. Heaven help you
when you need underwear or
socks and funds are not avail-
able.
Recreation outside the cell
blocks is not offered often.
And toothpaste and trial-size
soap are offered twice a week.
Do not wash with soap too
often there.
Needless to say, I think of
that facility almost every day.
The individuals wearing the
green uniforms have to serve
more time in there than I do.
(Thank heavens, and they
think they deserve respect.
Don't make me laugh.)

Pope just gave
a reminder
Editor:
Babs Hammond stated she
is appalled by Pope Benedict's
"pronouncement" that salva-
tion only comes through the
Catholic church.
She is taking this as a blan-
ket statement that non-
Catholics cannot find salva-
tion. This isn't so. This teach-
ing refers only to people who
know the church is the true
church but refuse to enter in.
This does not refer to people
who sincerely believe other-
wise.
By the way, this "pro-
nouncement" is to be found
in any 50-year-old Catholic
encyclopedia. It is by no
means something new or dif-


ferent that Pope Benedict is
bringing up. This teaching is
part of Catholic doctrine and
has been around for a very
long time. It will always be
with us.
It may come as a surprise
to many people that Catholic
doctrine never changes.
Some may think it does
because they confuse the dis-
ciplines of the church with
doctrine, or they may be mis-
informed altogether.
The reason our doctrine
cannot be changed is because
it is the unchanging fullness
of truth revealed to us by our
lord and savior Jesus Christ.
We have a wonderful pope
in Benedict XVI. What he is
doing is proclaiming this
same fullness of truth and
handing it down in an
unchanged manner to our
generation.

It's the grass, stupid
Editor:
Why has no one brought
up the fact that a lot of water
could be saved here in Florida
if we stopped planting St.
Augustine grass?
Would this not also
decrease the chemicals that
end up in the gulf?

A September to remember


BY BOHDAN 0.
SZUPROWICZ
GUEST COLUMNIST


The sound of the air raid
siren on top of our building
jerked me out of sleep. It shat-
tered the stillness of the early
dawn, a violent and sudden
reminder to take cover.
Other, more distant sirens
joined in one by one. For sev-
eral minutes they sounded
like a monstrous orchestra
chorus wailing out of sync
and scattered all over town.
A blinding flash, a blow of
air in the chest and the thun-
der of an explosion.
The sound of shattered
glass and bricks raining on
cobblestones in the street
below.
Then, silence.
After awhile the drone of
engines of the attacking
bombers registered in my
consciousness. Anti-aircraft
guns around the military
compound opened up. Their
staccato salvoes sound like
some big dogs barking in the
distance.
More. thundering explo-
sions followed farther and
farther away.
Then my heart started
beating again.
Someone switched on the
radio: 'Attention, attention,
it's coming. Ko, Ma, Three.
Attention, attention ... "This
message repeated over and
over again.
Father ran along the corri-
dor. He tried to strap on the
gun holster to the leather belt
of his uniform. He shouted to
Mother, "Take the children
below. Under the stairs in the
lobby. I have to report."
."Dress yourself quickly,"
Mother said to me. She asked
the maid to dress myyounger
brother while she took care of
the 2-week old baby.
"The windows," somebody
screamed. "Close the win-
dows. It's gas. Poison gas."
"The windows are broken,"
another voice answered. 'All
the windows are broken.
Most of the glass is gone."
"It's gas. I tell you, it's gas."
(1 ~ ~ ~ ~~ 9*.**-- S --;.,-


Mother moved. She told
the cook to get a jug of water
and find some linen napkins.
In the kitchen she grabbed a
bottle of vinegar.
"Quickly, the water," she
said, "in case of gas ... She
poured the vinegar into the
water and wetted the cloth.
Then she slapped the moist
napkins over the mouths of
the baby in her arms and my
brother.
She gave one to me.
"Breathe through this ...
breathe, my God..."
My younger brother began
to cry, irritated by the wet,-
sour and cold napkin on. his
face.
Mother herded us out of
the apartment. Our girl car-
ried the jug with vinegar
water and additional napkins.
By the time we got down,
there were several people
already huddled under the
concrete staircase of. the
lobby.
"It's safe here, it's good,"
they told each other.
Suddenly, a doorway was
flung open. Yellow dust hung
in the air outside. It began to
mix with thick, black smoke
from roaring flames of a
burning -building across the
street. A man appeared at the
doorway.
"Close the door," someone
shoUted. "It's gas. I know it's
gas."
"Close the door! Close the
door!" yelled the crowd. "It's
gas. Close it. There are
women and children here."
The man ignored the
shouts and motioned to oth-
ers outside. Several people
came in from the street.
"It's safe here," they said.
"They have water. That's
good.".
"You don't live here,"
shouted the people under the
staircase. "Go away. Go to
your own building."
"We are from the clinic
across the street," they
answered. "It's been hit. We
are patients. Some of us are
wounded and burned. There
are also dead."
"Yes, and that bomb was


CITY NOTES


Harbor plan
boaters survey
As part of the Harbor
Management planning, the
city ofVenice is doing a survey
of area boaters regarding their
impression of boating ameni-
ties and safety in the Venice
area.
This is a first step in devel-
oping a harbor management
plan, which will affect Roberts
Bay and the mooring field
near the Venice Yacht Club.
A harbor management
plan is necessary for law en-
forcement to deal with histor-
ical problems, such as derelict
boats, abandoned boats an-
chored without proper light-
ing at night, and boats that
escape their mooring or an-
chorage and present a hazard
to other boats and people.
A committee is currently
going through the process of
developing a harbor manage-
ment plan, which, when
complete, will be presented to
the city council for approval.
The plan is separate from
all and any proposals to

supposed to hit your build-
ing," another man added.
"You are a military target. We
were only a civilian hospital."
Mother held a wet napkin
against the face of the baby
and my brother, who wanted
to wriggle away from her.
People looked at them and
tried to understand.
"I thought it was gas," she
explained. "I am a pharma-
cist. Vinegar solution is a fil-
ter."
An officer in uniform
came into the lobby from
the garden behind the
apartment building that
formed part of the military
base. He overheard the con-
versation.
"No," he said. "The flag on
our headquarters is red. For
gas it's green. There is no dan-
ger.
"By the way, the Germans
missed all the military targets.
The bombs mostly fell into
the nearby streets and fields.
But they will be back. Their
bases in East Prussia are only
20 minutes away. You better
evacuate these buildings as
soon as you can."
The doorway to the street
flung open again. Two men
staggered in, covered with
dust. One, frightened out of
his wits or in shock, whined
away all the time at his com-
panion.
"We shall die, we shall die,
they're going to kill us," he
repeated over and over again.
"Don't be silly," the other
answered. "You have nothing
to worry about. The Germans
are only bombing the Jews."
I took the wet napkin away
from my face and looked at
the man. Acrid smell and
dusty air filled my nose and
mouth. I felt sour taste and
grit between my teeth. The

stranger noticed my stare and
moved closer.
"You have nothing to
worry about, my boy," he
repeated and pointed his fin-
ger at my big blue eyes. He
gave me a pat on the shoul-
der.
Mother looked up from
under the concrete stair-
case. She gave the stranger a
fleeting smile and went back
to comfort the, baby in her
arms.
I could not understand
what it was all about. It
seemed that the people were
now calmer than before but
there was something at the
back of my mind that both-
ered me.
"How will the German
pilots high above know who is
who?" I thought. "Perhaps it's
one of those secrets that
grown-ups don't want the
children to know."
It really did not matter.
Things were happening.
We did not have to eat the
dreaded oatmeal for break-
fast. That was good. No
school, of course. No need to
play in the sandbox with
other children of the com-
pound that was boring.
There was an air of adventure
in the air. That was exciting.
When the "all clear"
sounded most people in the
lobby rushed back to their
apartments. Others went out
into the street. In all, it felt like
a big disappointment.
We walked back to our
apartment, where the radio
continued with the same
message: 'Attention, atten-
tion, it's coming..."
It was Sept. 1, 1939. World
War II had just begun.

Retirement is too much work


No fun. My wife and I are
busy petitioning and prepar-
ing for an audience with the
Sarasota County Property Ap-
praiser. We would have pre-
ferred to spend our Labor Day
weekend doing something
fun, but more and more in
this state I find myself pro-
tecting what little I have
rather than enjoying it.
Palmed off. Can't anyone
see the excessive hurricane
cutting of palm trees causes
penciling and death of our
beautiful palms? Call and ask
any reputable landscaper,
please.
Pleasantly puzzled. I
want to thank you very much
for having young people on
the front page of Our Town.
I'm 81, so I also want to thank
you for the four Sudoku puz-
zles in the TV book.
Free parking. Someone
called in about motor homes
parking on the beach and the
parking lot signs. We have no
enforcement in Venice be-
cause city hall and city coun-
cil say there's no money to
enforce parking rules and reg-
ulations in Venice, so any-
body can park anywhere they
want even though there are
signs posted. Campers can
park where they want, over-
night camping. Nobody's
enforcing any rules because
the city of Venice can't afford
to. That's coming directly out
of city hall and the city man-
ager's mouth. We are broke.
That's why they're doing all
the layoffs. So if you've got a
motor home, park it any-
where you want.
Wonderful. That light at
East Venice and 41 Bypass


allowing more than three cars
through at one time is wonder-
ful.
No help. I'd like to know if
the city council in Venice is
paying attention to the city
commission in Sarasota, be-
cause the commission in
Sarasota seems to know
what's going on. The council
in Venice seems to have their
head buried in the sand.
Wonder if they're watching
what's going on in the
Sarasota downtown district
and can learn from what
they're doing, because they're
not doing anything to im-
prove the downtown shop-
ping district of Venice.
Understood. I'd like to
comment on two different
things. It said, "keep the items
brief." I just got through read-
ing the Gondolier Sun and
some of these people just go
on and on and blah, blah,
blah about the same thing.
There are four articles, five,
with one short one, in this
space, which is ridiculous.
Also, I would like to comment
on the article about prescrip-
tion drugs. Believe me, I agree.
My husband has Parkinson's
and I have high blood pres-
sure, and our prescriptions
are $800 and some a month.
And don't tell me to buy insur-
ance because I have Blue
Cross, which is supposed to
. cover the drugs. I pay $58 a
month for it and they really
pay diddily-squat. We're on a
fixed income and by the time
we pay for all these drugs, we
have to decide whether we
want to eat well or we want to
take drugs. So I understand
what he or she is saying.

"We prepared good during

Defensive Coordinator Larry
Shannon said. "We felt like we
could go out here and domi-

and the fids fought hard for
four quarters and we got it."
The only downside on the
night for Venice was the
penalties. The Indians were
penalized seven times for 80
yards, most of it coming late
in the game as emotions
began to run high. Venice was
called for three personal foul
penalties and Braden River
was called for two, all in the
fourth quarter. Don't expect
the Indians to run too many

though. f

Venice advances to final game of Gatortown


BYTRIPP MILLER
SPORTS EDITOR


Senior Kaylee Ream serves her third straight point during game two
: ,-st St.Thomas Aquinas. She would serve six in a row for the
Indians.


Venice High School made
its first step towards asserting
itself as a state championship
contender in volleyball
Saturday afternoon.
The Indians defeated every
team in their four-team pool
Friday to advance to the gold
round of the Gatortown
Classic at Buchholz High
School.
Venice beat Gainesville
High School 25-20, :25-9,
Orange Park High School 25-
11, 25-18, and Jensen Beach
High School 25-13, 25-23.
In the first match of the
gold round, Venice edged St.
Thomas Aquinas High School
in five games. St. Thomas
took the first game
25-23. It was the first time
Venice found itself trailing by
a game in a match.
"Last year if we were down
games in a match, not one
time did we come back,"
Venice Head Coach Brian
Wheatley said. "One of our
things this year was to get the
monkey off our backs making
comebacks. We were down 2-
1 in games and we came back
and won."
The Indians made a come-
back, winning the second
match 25-17, only to fall by
the same score in the third
match. Venice made another
comeback in the fourth
game, winning 25-21.
In the tie-breaker fifth
game, which is decided by the
first team to reach 15 points,
the Indians faced two match
points at 14-13 and 15-14.
Venice rallied to 14-14 and


again to 15-15 before scoring
two unanswered points to
win 17-15.
' "Basically, we beat a team
with better athletes,"
Wheatley said.
"It's called -heart, it's all
about heart when you get to
this level.",-`
Against St. Thomas Aq-
uinas, senior Casey Taylor
broke the Venice record for
most kills in a match with 34.
Senior Kaylee Ream com-
piled 18 kills and six blocks,
followed by senior Casie
Richards with 17 kills and six
blocks.
Against Gainesville, Venice
senior Casey Taylor recorded
14 kills and sophomore Jillian
Allen had eight kills and nine
blocks. Senior
Kaylee Ream led the Indians
against Orange Park with 13
kills and three blocks. Senior
Julie Howlett followed with
seven kills and 11
digs. Senior Casie Richards
recorded five kills and four
blocks.
Kaylee Ream led Venice
against Jensen Beach with 17
kills and four blocks. Senior
Nick Halbert racked up 46
assists and five kills in the
same game.
The Indians played the
championship game of the
tournament against
Buchholz High School
(Gainesville) Saturday night,
but the game was not com-
plete by press time.
Next up for the Indians
volleyball team is a road
match with Manatee High
School Tuesday.

Patting the GRAND in


Today is Grandparents Day, but they don't need a
special day to realize how important they are.


grandparents


BY SUSAN CAIRO
STAFF WRITER


Grandparents come in all
shapes and sizes. So does
their "baggage."
For some, the move to


Florida alone can be devas-
tating. For others, dealing
with aging and serious ill-
nesses can exacerbate their
feelings of isolation from chil-
dren and grandchildren. And
still others discover new


aspects to the meaning of the
word "love."
For Grandparents Day
2007, here are a few stories
that will make you think
about your grandparents on
their day.


A moving experience


Carol Warner accompanies her granddaughter, Samantha, on the It's a Small World ride at Disney
World. Warner was able to take her four grandchildren to Disney World this year. ,


When retirees move to
Venice, one of the
most heart-wrench-
ing changes can be leaving
their grandchildren behind.
"Knowing that we would-
n't have our grandchildren
near us every day was devas-
tating," said Carol Wamer of
Venice.
After she and her hus-
band, Tom, sold their New
Jersey house, they stayed
with their son and his fami-
ly until they relocated.
"We were part of their
lives," she said.
Theymovedto Floridaand


rented an apartment while
their house was being built.
"My husband had not
retired, and while he was
still working in New Jersey, I
was here alone in a rented
condo," she said.
Now, five years later,
they have adjusted and,
with lots of visits from their
children and grandchil-
dren, Warner rarely thinks
about the move.
"I finally got to go to
Disney with all of my grand-
children this year," she said.
The Warners now have
four grandchildren. Time


spent with theinis especial-
ly precious these days.
Carol was diagnosed
with ovarian cancer two
years ago.
"When I first lost my hair,
I always wore a wig'' she
said. "I was afraid to scare
them."
One day, while in the
pool, Warner asked her
granddaughter if it would
be OK if she removed her
wig.
"She said, 'Don't worry,
you're still the same grand-
ma, you just don't have any
hair.'"


Local hero


E d and Carolyn Bou-
dreaux are proud of
their daughter, Nancy.
She and her husband, Rene,
and granddaughter Ashley,
of Sarasota, are in San Diego,
Calif., this weekend.
In 2004, shortly after the
birth of her first child, Nancy
developed stroke-like symp-
toms that were diagnosed
after testing as the onset of
multiple sclerosis. She has
been under a doctor's care
and has had daily injections
to combat the disease.
Several weeks after her
diagnosis Nancy signed up
as a participant in the 50-
mile Walk for MS in
California. She raised $8,000
for her walk and was one of
the top money contributors
in the race.
On Sept. 7 she again par-
ticipated in the 50-Mile Walk
for MS, having raised $5,000
this year.
Whenever she needs
them, her parents are stand-
ing by.
"We watch Ashley when
my daughter is undergoing
treatment, or when she isn't
feeling well," said Carolyn
Boudreaux.
After raising four chlt1tr~-r
the couple didn't think twice
about running after a very
active 4-year-old.,
"We watch Ashley as
much as we can and we are
glad to help my daughter,"
she said.

her grandparents, Carolyn and Ed Boudreaux of Venice.


The couple recently took
their grandchildren from
Lake Villa, Ill., to Disney
World.
"I think I was the only old


lady on the carousel, and I
didn't mind a bit," she said.
The grandchildren didn't
mind a bit, either.


Ohio State fans


The name's the same

because their grandchildren live nearby.


PHOTO COURTESY U-OFMbHYLAKEHRS
Aston Gardens residents Edward and Theresia Cronk hold their great-granddaughter Theresia
Gabrielle Clark for the first time. Baby Gabble was named after her great-grandmother.


In July, Edward and
Theresia Cronk of
Venice met their great-
grandaughter, Theresia
Gabrielle Clark, for the first
time.
That the little girl was
named for her maternal
great-grandmother was a
wonderful surprise be-
stowed on the grandparents
by daughter Cheryl Akers
shortly after the little girl's
birth.
"That's the reason for the
unusual spelling," Akers


said. "It was also my grand-
mother's name and that is
the baby's great-great-
grandmother."
Akers was a working
mom, and her mother,
daughter and grandmother
became extremely close.
"My mom would babysit
for my daughter every day,"
Akers said. "She was there
for her when she came
home from school, when
she was sick, holidays and
during the summer."
Cronk, a classic home-


maker, brought up four
children.
"I still remember the
smell of baked brownies and
cookies after school, and my
daughter was very lucky to
have had the same treat-
ment from her grandmoth-
er," Akers said.
Akers' father, in his 80s,
was happy to see his great-
grandaughter for a different
reason.
"He said he was happy to
live long enough to hold
her," Akers said.


or the past four years,
John and Joyce Toms
enjoyed having their
son, John, daughter-in-law,
Rhonda, and two grandsons,
Courtland, 6, and Brody, 3,
living close 'to them in
Nokomis.
Then one night, things
almost fell apart.
John decided that he
missed the excitement of
living in a college town and
wanted to move back to


Ohio.
"He has always been an
Ohio State fan and wanted to
be there for the home
games," Joyce Toms said.
When the housing market
fell, their son and daughter-
in-law could not sell their
house for the amount they
wanted.
That the house did not
sell turned out to be a good
thing for all three genera-
tions.


Courtland, who was
named after an Ohio State
football hero, and Brody
are enjoying quality time
with their grandparents
and the grandparents are
enjoying the youngsters,
babysitting for them one
night a week.
"When I go to my grand-
parents' house, it's date night
for my mom and dad,"
Courtland said.
Everybody wins.


BLENDED GENERATIONS
Established by the descendants of Marian H. McQaide of West Virginia, the nonprofit
National Grandparents Day Council was created to cultivate intergenerational activities
throughout the year, not just on National Grandparents Day.
The council's goal is to strengthen bonds between grandparents and grandchildren and "to
draw compassionate attention to the eldest of society's elderly those in nursing homes."

day.com.

STAFF ESCRITOR

Hang on to your sanity,
ladies and gentlemen. It's
time for News from Ecine-
ville.
It's election season again
here in Ecineville.
Two looooooong months
to go before the vote.
"This election could be
lots of fun, a real trip," said
longtime Ecineville political
observer Eddie "The Eye"
Agnew (no relation to the
former vice president).
There is a lot of excite-
ment down at Billy's Billiards
and BBQ Pit Restaurant in
South Ecineville.
'I A local South Ecfneville
hangout, it has always been
the favorite watering hole
for community news and
gossip and local politics.
There is a feeling among
the locals at Billy's that they
have some candidates for
city council that at least this
small sampling of South
Ecineville likes.
"Our candidates are pret-
r, more handsome, dress
better and are just more fun
to be around then those oth-
ers," said Samantha Ray-
bum (no relation to the for-
mer speaker of the house).
"We took a jerky poll last
night about 1 a.m. and it
appeared that there were
27 jerkies for our guys and
only three jerkies for the
other guys," said bartender
Lola Lanisotara, adding, "We
idjitn'thave any straws."' .

The News


from


Ecineville


Familiar faces crowd fall
movie lineup. (Well, familiar
names, anyway. A lot of the
faces seem somewhat differ-
ent tighter, maybe.)
Groups: al-Qaida leader
plans new video. (See next
entry.)
MTV aims to return to its
days of glory. (Looks like a
marriage made in heaven to
me.)
Ace discovers $154 mil-
lion accounting shortfall. (As
long as we're not talking seri-
ous money, just write it off
and start over.)
New courtroom complex
at Guantanamo to hold joint
trials, prosecutor says. (The
war on drugs has taken an


interesting turn.)
Shepherd gets last vacant
"View" seat. (Expect a lot of
segments about wool.)
Study finds cell phones
and hospitals don't mix.
(Maybe not, but you can have
some sick fun with one in the
cardiac ward.)
Bo Diddley leaves hospi-
tal, feels better. (I wonder if a
cell phone was involved.)
Venus advances to U.S.
Open semis. (Insert your own
joke about Uranus here.)
Italy battles imported
viral epidemic. (Whoever
approved that trade agree-
ment should be fired.)
"Idol" tour faces empty
seats. (Once we're past the


point of being able to torture
them with our votes, we just
lose interest.)
Religion not clear-cut
issue in White House race.
(But so far it appears all of the
candidates believe in God
and none thinks he or she is
God. Stay tuned, though.)
Cyprus to seek ancient
shipwrecks. (Start with the
Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Oops,
my bad technically they're
a train wreck.)
Shaolin monks deny
online tale of ninja that best-
ed them, demand apology.
(What, you need more than
that?)

Ecineville, where the pa-
trons are very community
conscious and politically
savvy, the upcoming elec-
tion was also on the menu.
"We are very confident
the people of Ecineville will
pick the best people for our
city council," said Stuey P
Long (no relation to the for-
mer governor of Louisiana
and senator).
"Our candidates are pret-
tier, more handsome, dress
better and are just more fun
to be around then those oth-
ers," said Candace J. Ging-
newt (no relation to any-
one).
Wine steward Georgio
Rattinoupolis said Welling-
ton's conducted a poll and
its candidates were the clear
choice among Wellington
customers.
"We had our annual
shrimp cocktail poll and the
final results were our candi-
dates, 29 shrimp, and theirs,
two shrimp.
Well, whether they were
using shrimp or jerky to cast
their unofficial votes at local
restaurants recently here in
Ecineville, one thing is clear:
It could be a close race come
this November for the seats
on the Ecineville City
Council.
Well, this is Ted "I'm a
reporter, I'm a reporter"
Rank reporting. I'll see you
next issue with more news
from Ecineville. Until then,
remember, for you folks
from up north, you can only
vcte once here in Ecinexille.

Wakeup call: Take a look at
the long lines at Starbucks:
Caffeine is the world's most
popular drug. Americans
consume an average of 200
milligrams of the stuff per
day, the equivalent of about
two cups of coffee, four cups
of tea or four cans of cola.
Pump it up: Energy drinks
contain as big a jolt as a cup of
joe. The content depends on
how coffee is brewed fresh

the dosage, caffeine is still ad-
dictive.
The effects: Caffeine stim-
ulates the central nervous
system, triggering the release
of adrenaline into the blood-
stream, raising blood sugar
levels. It can stave off fatigue,
boost neural activity and im-
prove performance of physi-
cal work. If abused, look out

nia, headaches, abnormal

Senior scams: How to protect your


elder loved one from being a victim


JIM MILLER
SAVVY SENIOR


Dear Savvy Senior,
Can you offer some tips on pro-
tecting seniors from financial
scams? My next door neighbor's
elderly parents were recently swin-
dled out of several thousand dol-
lars and I want to make sure my
own mother is protected. Fraud
Fighting Cindy
Dear Cindy,
Senior financial scams are
a big problem! In fact, the
Securities and Exchange
Commission estimates that
some 5 million senior citi-
zens are the targets of finan-
cial abuse each year. Here's
what you should know.
Appealing targets
While people of all ages
can be fleeced, senior citi-
zens are particularly appeal-
ing targets to con artists.
Why?
Money, time and good
manners! Seniors tend to
have more money to steal,
more free time to listen to
sales pitches, are less likely to
hang up on or cut off a pushy
salesman, and are more
tfitihgdh4r the' younger-
geneirti6ns'. ;
Scammers
It's not always easy spot-
ting a con. They range from
swindlers, to shady financial
advisers to slick-talking tele-
marketers to professional
caregivers and relatives who
steal from the very people
they're supposed to be look-
ing after.


The most common scams
targeting seniors today come
in the form of free-lunch
seminars selling dubious
financial products, and high-
pressure phone calls and
endless junk mail peddling
free vacation packages,
sweepstakes, phony charity
fundraisers and more. And,
of course, there's the ongoing
problem of identity theft,
Medicare fraud, door-to-door
scams, credit card theft,
Internet and e-mail scams
and family thieves which
makes up more than half of
all financial crimes against
the elderly.

Fraud protection
The most effective way to
help protect your mom is to
alert her to the different
kinds of scams out there that
target seniors. The easiest
way to do this is by visiting
the North American
Securities Administrator's
Web site (www.nasaa.org -
click on Senior Investment
Resource Center), where you
can get a rundown on some
of the most common scams
making the rounds these
days as well as a Fraud
Awareness Quiz.
Also see www.fraud.org. If
your mom doesn't have
access to a computer, print
out the materials yourself
and use them to start a con-
versation.
It's also a good idea to
keep tabs on her social circle.
For example, are you hearing
anewnamementioned, ,v,,
when you talk to her? Who's
giving her advice, financial or
otherwise? It's almost like
checking up on your kids and
who they're hanging out
with. Introduce yourself to
the new people entering your
mom's life, just so they know
you're involved with her
affairs.
Some additional tips that
can protect her include


reminding her to never give
out her Social Security num-
ber or financial information
over the telephone, in person
or over the Internet unless
she initiated the contact. To
consider using direct deposit
rather than having paper
checks (such as Social
Security, disability or stock
dividends) sent to her
through the mail. And to reg-
ister with the National Do
Not Call Registry
(www.donotcall.gov; (888)
382-1222) which will reduce
telemarketing scams.
Spotting a scam
Helping manage your
mom's money is the best way
to spot potential scams. But
be aware that this can be a
very sensitive topic, so be as
diplomatic and graceful as
possible. The last thing you
want to do is make her
defensive, but even simple
tasks such as looking over
her financial statements can
alert you to questionable
checks or large withdrawals.
If she doesn't want you
looking at her financial
records, there are other clues,
such as is she getting a lot of
junk mail for contests, free
trips and sweepstakes? Is she

Who to call

has gotten scammed report it
to your state securities regu-

nasaa.org to find yours).

important to get regulators
involved. They may be able

Create a legacy of love


MELINDA MUDGE
GUEST COLUMNIST


National Assisted Living
week is celebrated this year
Sept. 9-15. Each year the cele-
bration of assisted living week
begins with Grandparents
Day, which is today, Sunday,
Sept. 9. The week-was first
recognized in 1994 and each
year The National Center for
Assisted Living declares a
theme. This year the theme of
the week is Legacies of Love.
Many people who have not
needed assisted living ser-
vices wonder what the indus-
try is all about. Assisted Living
Communities provide per-
sonal care services, which
focus of activities of daily liv-
ing (ADLs). An example of
some ADLs include dressing,
personal grooming assis-
tance, laundry, ambulation
and transfer assistance, med-
ication management, etc. In
addition to the one-on-one
care provided while assisting
an individual, with their per-
sonal care needs, assisted liv-
ing communities provide
three nutritionally balanced
meals a day, activities both
within their communities
and transportation for activi-
ties outside of the communi-
ty. All communities have Well-
nesT, Staffs,. which, iinj igl
Registered' Nurses, Licensed
Practical Nurses and Certified
Nursing Assistants. Most well-
ness care staffs will assist resi-
dents with coordination of
doctor visits and the imple-
mentation of the doctor
orders and will-conduct
monthly or quarterly wellness
check-ups for their own resi-
dent charts.
The average age of resi-


dents who live in assisted liv-
ing communities is 80 years
old. Most residents are wom-
en with 31 percent being
male. About 1 million resi-
dents live in 36,000 licensed
assisted living communities
nationwide. States individu-
ally regulate assisted living
communities, so some of the
services many vary between
states, but the overall concept
of care is universal.
While all these services
may be available to residents,
this is not to imply that all res-
idents need these services.
Many seniors are choosing to
move into assisted living
communities with the fore-
thought of future needs.
Many communities encour-
age residents to maintain as
much independence as they
are able to. Residents can still
drive if able to, allowing them
to continue their social activi-
ties while no longer worrying
about meal preparation,
home maintenance and the
Worry of being alone if some-
thing were to happen.
National Assisted Living
Week is important. It is a cele-
bration of many people com-
ing together to take care of
one another, Legacy of Love.
Communities become ex-
tended families, not only the
seniors but also for the staff.
Right here in Venice we have
more than 700 assisted living
community residents, each of
them has many caring staff
members looking out for
them, each making Venice a
better place to live.
Melinda Mudge is director
of community relations at
HarborChase of Venice, As-
sisted Living Facility No. 8813.

GUEST WRITER


She'll always be 36. Beau-
tiful. Stylish. Wistful eyes, but
sparkling smile. The center of
a dysfunctional royal fairy tale
with a surprise grisly ending.
It was 10 years ago this
summer that I went to
London for the funeral of
Diana, Princess of Wales. It
was a chance to see a bit of
the Old World fade away. A
royal funeral. The flag-draped
coffin moved slowly down
Kensington Gore, flanked by
red-coated Welsh Guards in
tall black bearskin hats.
I stood with the thousands
on the curbsides, the silence
broken only by the clip-clop
of horses' hooves on blacktop.
An additional 2.5 billion peo-
ple tuned in on TV
The day before the funeral,
I had wandered among the
sea of flowers piled against
the gate of Kensington Palace,
where Diana had lived.
Three lilies wrapped in cel-
lophane caught my eye. There
was a note: "When the car-
riage passes by, a bit of Britain
surely dies."
I went back this summer to
find out if it was true.
Was Britain still mourning
the self-proclaimed "(ueen
of Hearts"? Or was the royal
biographer William Shaw-
cross right when he said the
sorrow was "wide, if shallow"?
On arrival in London, I
could see that Diana still sells.
Tina Brown's new biography,
"The Diana Chronicles,"
fought for bookstore window
space with the last Harry
Potter tome. ii ;.. ni
People magazine! rolled
out a fat special edition with
its decades of Diana covers. A
pop concert at Wembley
Stadium celebrating Diana
sold out all 90,000 seats.
A magazine article recalled
the 2002 BBC poll in which
the public ranked the 100
most important Britons of all
time. Winston Churchill fin-
ished first. But Diana was
third ahead of Charles
Darwin, William Shakespeare,
Queen Elizabeths I and II,
and a host of kings, explorers,
Beatles and war heroes.
The postcard racks gave
me the creeps. Nearly all still
sold various shots of Diana,
but often above or below
more recent shots of Diana's
ex, the now seriously graying
Prince Charles, with his sec-
ond wife, Camilla.
'Pick-a-wife postcards.
A poll showed that a quar-
ter of citizens were OK with a
"Queen Camilla" if Charles
came to the throne. For now,
Camilla is leaning toward the
title "King's Consort" if the
day ever comes.
I had been to Britain a few
times since Diana's death, but
this was the first time I made
the two-hour drive north
from London to her grave at
Althorp, the Spencer family
estate in Northamptonshire.
Locals had worried that
Diana's grave would turn this
horsy patch of countryside
into the British equivalent of
Elvis, Presley's final resting
place. A kind of "English
Graceland," as one newspa-
per put it.
But the villages showed no
signs of T-shirt shops, Diana
impersonators or fast-food
joints. Just an old coaching
inn, a few pubs, and large
brick homes behind tightly

latched gates.
At Althorp, I counted 60
cars in the parking lot. Not
bad for a rainy weekday. I paid
the entry fee (about $26) and
joined the crowd of mostly
older British pensioners mak-
ing their way up the long drive
to the visitors center built into
the onetime stables.
Althorp has become Bri-
tain's unofficial center for
mourning Diana. Her brother,
Charles, the 9th Earl of
Spencer, opens the grounds
to visitors from July to the first
week in September. The
twice-divorced nobleman still
lives at times on the estate.
My first stop: "Diana: A
Celebration." The exhibit be-
gan with an eye-popper:
Diana's wedding dress. It's a
pearl- and sequin-bedecked
concoction with a 25-foot-
long train that had seemed to
flow the length of the aisle at
St. Paul's Cathedral on that
happy day in 1981.
The exhibits moved sur-
prisingly quickly to her death.

around the world.
I found the second exhibit,
"Diana: The Work Contin-
ues," disappointing. It chron-
icles her charitable works, but
is little more than a series of
photos, videos and placards.
In the small gift shop, visi-
tors perused Diana bone
china, Diana earrings, Diana
tote bags and Diana wrist-
watches. The commercialism
is odd but irresistible.
As signs point out, all prof-
its go to the Diana, Princess of
Wales Memorial Fund, which
carries on her charitable and
humanitarian causes.
Althorp tourism has raised
more than $1.5 million since
1998.
At 2:30 p.m., Lord Spencer
strode into the gift shop.
Spencer is not only an earl
but alsq a viscount and a
baron, and you address him
as Lord Spencer a catch-all
fancy noble version of "mis-
ter." Shop girls swooped up
copies of books for him to
sign for those willing to buy.
Some visitors moved for-
ward for the chance to meet

move from Germany to
Britain with George I.
After all the displays and
build-up, it was time to go
visit Diana's grave.
A short walk along a wood-
ed path leads to the Round
Oval, a lake with a small
island in the middle where
Diana is buried. You cannot
see a grave.
Only a small Grecian urn


Opposite the center entrance to Buckingham Palace in London, the
Victoria Monument by sculptor Sir Thomas features a large statue of
Queen Victoria facing northeast toward the Mall. At the top of the
statue is Victory, accompanied by two seated figures. It is at the cen-
ter of Queen's Gardens.


Palace as word spread of her
death in a car crash in Paris on
Aug. 31, 1997. The images
were shown on a wall in front
of a floor made to look like it
was covered in fallen autumn
leaves.
On a back wall was the Earl
of Spencer's handwritten
statement to the press on the
death of his sister that begins,
"This is not a time for recrim-
inations" and then lays the
tragedy on the stoop of the
media that hounded her
every move. There's also his
personal copy of the eulogy
for Diana at the funeral at
Westminster Abbey.
Most of the visitors lin-
gered longest in the long
gallery of Diana's dresses. You
can chronicle her transforma-
tion from frumpy girl to inter-
national style star in just a few
steps as the outfits go from,
banal to billowy to sleek.
At the end, through a clear
pane, are stacks upon stacks
of condolence books from

JENNIFER TUCKER, MS
GUEST COLUMNIST

Have you noticed that our
concept of "healthy" isn't
what it once was? It used to be
that a healthy individual was
one who participated in vig-
orous exercise several times
per week, avoided "bad"
habits such as- smoking and
drinking and followed a fairly
limited diet of lean meats and
lots of roughage.
Today, we hear it is all right
to drink alcohol in modera-
tion, consume fat as long as it
the "right" kind of fat and our
exercise can be of low to mod-
erate intensity and come in
spurts throughout the day
and still be considered benefi-
cial. It seems that the defini-
tion of "healthy" has softened
a bit and become more palat-
able. This is indeed good
news as more people will
embrace healthy habits if they
are not too difficult or objec-
tionable. And therein lies the
key to the success of the
"new" definition of health -
the number of people willing
to embrace a few healthy
habits and make changes that
will enhance their health and
well-being.
We've become wiser and
more evolved in our thinking
about what is healthy. Experts
realize that making even
small changes in habits and
behavior can have big payoffs.
Losing 3 percent body fat sig-
nificantly reduces the risk of
diabetes, walking for 20 min-
utes a few times per week sig-
nificantly increases HDL cho-
lesterol (the good kind), eat-
ing a few more grams of fiber
each day significantly reduces
the risk of colon cancer, etc.


These days, it's not about a
formula of how many calories
to consume or how much
exercise to do; It's about lead-
.ing a healthy lifestyle and
making good choices when
you have the opportunity to
positively affect your health.
The new name of the game
.is behavior change, aka im-
plementing healthy (or
healthier) habits. You don't
have to completely overhaul
your lifestyle just,make
some small changes that will
eventually lead to bigger
changes that will eventually
lead to you living a long, qual-
ity life. You don't have to pos-
sess iron-clad willpower or
supreme fortitude Anyone
can make a small, positive
change.
The South County Family
YMCA has a new program
called Jump Start that is
designed to help individuals
make small, manageable
changes in their daily lives

that will have a big health
payoff. The program focuses
on positive, motivational
input from YMCA staff and
advice on how to incorporate
healthful habits easily into
your lifestyle. There is nothing
dramatic here: just sound
coaching, inspiring and guid-
ing individuals to create their
own perfect path to health.
The program is rooted in fit-
ness and nutrition principles,
but also provides participants
with a holistic approach to
health that addresses percep-
tions of barriers, limitations
and aversions to instituting
healthy behaviors.
Sometimes just surround-


ing yourself with like-mind-

is enough to spur positive
changes in your lifestyle.

DIANA from Page 8B


,of seven relatives and friends
spanning three generations.
I "This is the main reason
iwe came to the United
Kingdom this year, to see
F thorp," she said. "We grew
up following her life. She
became a princess.
It's every girl's dream. It
didn't turn out very good. But
have to say, this is not very
impressive considering what
1she did for the world."
; Sue Wetherell, 45, of
'Jackson, N.J., agreed.
"I wish there was some-
thing more for people to look
iat after coming all this way,"
ishe said. "People want to be
Close. That's the way she was
When she was alive. She was-
5 n't standoffish like the rest of
Shde royal family."
up the path,
a oe ,bouse, past the visi-
tors center, past the gift shop
with its-Diana memorabilia.
The grounds of Althorp
stretched out to the horizon
on all sides. A magnificent
place. But in the end, all these
amazing riches couldn't cre-
ate a happy ending for Diana.
Back in London, it was
,pouring. "The London mon-
Ssoon," they call it. Two inches
of rain fell in an hour. It was a
good time to visit the
INational Portrait Gallery,
which has a small exhibit of
Photos of Diana over the


years, from the "Shy Di" of the
engagement to the sleek,
savvy style-maker of her later
years.
Regal images
Most of the images are
regal or stylized. But my
favorite is an outtake from a
photo session with her sons
for a Christmas card soon
after her divorce. Diana leans
over, laughing at something
Harry has done, while William
breaks up in the background.
A rare happy, informal
moment in a family that
seemed forever formal and
often unhappy.
The skies parted enough in
the evening that I took a long
walk from the Black Lion Gate
at the northwest corner of
Kensington Gardens. I passed
the' playground renamed for'
Diana, which had already
closed for the day (adults
without children are only
allowed in for a half hour in
the morning anyway).
At the gates of Kensington
Palace, the cascade of flowers
that stretched like a carpet in
the days after Diana's death
was, of course, long gone.
But a sign on the wrought
iron fence advertised an
exhibit on Diana.
Once I had walked these
paths with hundreds of thou-
sands of people in the days


just before the funeral. Now I
was almost alone, winding
my way to the controversial
Diana, Princess of Wales
Memorial Fountain at the
south end of Hyde Park.
The moat-like circle is sup-
posed to symbolize Diana's
openness. To me it looked like
a long drainage ditch or per-
haps a banked go-kart track.
Even if it hadn't looked all
the more pathetic because
it was drained of water
for repairs, the "fountain"
seemed like an ill-conceived
and hopelessly abstract trib-
ute to the princess.
Golden light streamed
through the storm clouds on
the horizon, lighting the tops
of the trees. I walked past
Queens Gate, where I had
stoOd'0 ears before with my
wife an t en-3-year-old -on
to watch the funeral proces-
sion pass by on its way to
Westminster Abbey.
The light bulbs flickered on
outside Harrods, the depart-
ment store owned by Mo-
hamed al-Fayed, the father of
Diana's last lover, Dodi al-
Fayed, who died in the Paris
car crash with her.
Back at my hotel over
Charing Cross Station, I
reread a 2006 article from the
Observer newspaper by Mary
Riddell. She felt Diana mania
added up to less than the fall


of the British Empire.
"When the chips are down,
the mugs glazed -and the tea
towels printed, Britain still
cheers on its monarchy,
sometimes beyond the point
of reason.
Diana was absurdly sancti-
fied, in life and death."
Across from me sat Richard
and Jan Gaskell, dressed in
the fancy garb they had worn
to a tea party to honor those
involved in charitable work
around the country. The
Gaskells, who live in Kent,
help teach disabled people to
sail.
I asked if they thought
Diana had been mourned too
heavily or forgotten too light-
ly. Neither, really, they said.
"She was a nice young girl
who was caught up in some-
thi& g hat rwent( out bf' con-
trol," Richard Gaskell said. "It
was a sudden tragedy and
people reacted to that tra-\
gedy. But so many things have
happened since."
"But," added Jan, "she will
be remembered. One day, her
son will be king."

rules my neighborhood


long-winged raptor,
A with white bars on
its dark wings and
tail, rules over my
neighborhood. He sits high,
on the peak of a roof or in the
highest tree in the area
(which isn't all that tall), and
surveys his kingdom. His
rusty shoulders give him his
name, red-shouldered hawk.
These large hawks are
common east of the Missis-
sippi River, but they're also
found in California though
not in between. My neighbor-
hood red-shouldered friend
likes swampy woods and
bogs. Our back looks out on
just the right sort of environ-
ment. He watches quietly
from one of those perches he
uses. Then he drops down to
capture a snake or frog, insect
or lizard. They like 'small
mammals (rodents), too, but I


haven't seen this one take any
such prey.
During their annual mat-
ing time, these hawks can be
pretty obnoxious, wheeling
noisily in broad circles in the
sky above their nesting terri-
tory and diving at one anoth-
er. I've seen the male perform
a "sky dance," in which he
soars high in the air, then
makes a series of very steep
dives. Each dive is completed
with a wide, spiral, rapid
climb back into the heavens.
These spectacular "dances"
are often seen in late morning
or early afternoon.
Red-shouldered hawks
have a very distinctive whist-
ling sort of scream. The fe-
males are generally larger
than the males, and the pairs
are monogamous and territo-
rial. Their nests are used year
after year, though some
clean-up and refurbishing
takes place each year. Both
male and female participate
in the construction of their
nest. It takes about six weeks
for the chicks to fledge (grow
feathers for flying). The male
brings food to the female on
the nest, and to the chicks.
The chicks become indepen-
dent at about 17 to 19 weeks.
There are five subspecies
of red-shouldered hawks, ba-
sed on geography mostly, but
there's some variation in
physical characteristics as


well. The two subspecies seen:
in Fldrida, Buteo lineatus,
extimus and Buteo lineatus:
alleni, are somewhat lighter:
in color than other red-shoul-;
dered hawks. They do not:
migrate. Some of the North-'
eastern and Canadian pairs,
do migrate, however.
Keen eyesight and sharp'
hearing enable red-shoul-
dered hawks to hunt success-:
fully. The shape and structure!
of their wings allow them tol
soar effortlessly for long peri-
ods of time as they search for
prey. Their eyes, which are
large, are perfectly positioned
for excellent depth percep-
tion. These factors are key to
the hunting prowess of the
red-shouldered hawk.
Populations of red-shoul-
dered hawks have declined
throughout the twentieth cen-
tury due to the clearing of
forests loss of habitat. How-
ever, their numbers would
seem to be stable at this time.
I'm looking forward to see-
ing my red-shouldered neigh-
bor for a couple more years
(the average life-span), but
maybe I'll enjoy his company
even longer. The oldest
known red-shouldered hawk
lived 19 years and 11 months.
I can only hope.
Larry Allan is an award-
winning photographer. See
his work online at
preserveourwildlife.org.

This young red-shouldered hawk loves to survey my neighborhood from the peak of the roof. It's fairly
comfortable with people around, which is not uncommon for this species.
