VHS students rally

for referendum
BY BOBBY MALEC
SUN CORRESPONDENT

High school students are joining adults
throughout the community to show their sup-
port for the referendum coming up March 16.
The referendum vote has become a highly
charged issue throughout the county. Local
Republican groups have split down the middle
on whether to support it. Letters to the editor,
both pro and con, have flooded newspaper e-
mail boxes for the past month and local bloggers
have taken up the issue on both sides of the
argument.
More than two dozen Venice High School stu-
dents recently joined a large group of communi-
ty members for a briefing on the potential con-
sequences schools face if the 1-mill tax is not
renewed.
Referendum supporters have launched a get-
out-the-vote effort that extends from Nokomis to
the south end of Jacaranda Boulevard, and VHS
students have joined in.
The grassroots canvassing campaign, orga-
nized by Citizens for Better Schools, is intended
to provide voters with facts about the property
tax referendum and make sure citizens are aware
of the March 16 special election.
Jim Clinch, a representative from Citizens for
Better Schools, met with students at Venice High to
talk with them about the referendum and invite
them to go door-to-door.
Clinch said that many electives and programs
important to students will likely disappear if voters
choose not to renew the property tax.
"Sports will either become pay-as-you-go or will
be eliminated altogether," he said. "Music and art
will get cut. Students might not be able to take
dual-enrollment classes through SCF [State College
of Florida], and Advanced Placement courses will
be cut."
Students have helped the advocacy group visit
hundreds of households in the Venice area.

Early voting begins on tax referendum


BY ELAINE ALLEN-EMRICH
STAFF WRITER

More than 12,000 absentee bal-
lots were sent to Sarasota County
voters who don't want to go to the
polls on March 16, but still want
their say.
Including absentee ballots and
early voting which began
Monday- Sarasota Supervisor of
Elections Kathy Dent anticipates
a 35 percent expected turnout for
the special school referendum
election.
The Sarasota County School
District is asking residents to con-
tinue the 1 mill school tax that
county voters have approved twice
before, in 2002 and 2006.
A mill is $1 per $1,000 of a prop-
erty's taxable value. The amount
equals about 30 cents to 39 cents
per day, depending on the assessed
value of a home.
The money will continue pay-
ing for arts, dance, sports, dual
enrollment and remedial classes,
and dropout prevention pro-
grams, according to North Port
High School principal George
Kenney.
Opponents of the referendum
say they are simply following the
government watchdog wave that
has been sweeping across the
nation for the past 18 months as
the overall economy suffers.
They are challenging the way
the district spends money on con-
struction funding and spending,
teacher salaries, hiring and firing
policies, and space utilization.
According to the Sarasota County
Supervisor of Elections Office, there
are more than 258,900 registered


voters countywide.
"The phones have
been ringing off the
hook for absentee
ballots," said Supervi-
sor of Elections Kathy
Dent. "The turnout is -
looking pretty good
based on the returns Dent
we are getting from
the returned absentee ballots."
Options
Absentee ballots can be request-
ed by mail until March 10 and must
be returned to the election office by
7 p.m. March 16.
For county residents who don't
want to wait in line March 16, early
voting runs through March 14 at
the three elections offices: Biscayne
Plaza, 13640 Tamiami Trail, North
Port; Robert L. Anderson Adminis-
tration Center, 4000 South Tamiami
Trail, Room 114, Venice; and The
Terrace Building, 101 S. Washing-
ton Blvd., Sarasota. Voters must
show a valid photo ID in order to
vote early or on March 16.
Voting is 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
Monday through Friday; 9 a.m.-1
p.m. Saturday; and 1-5 p.m.
Sunday.
In 2006, there were 245,339 reg-
istered voters, with 29,146 voting in
favor of continuing the tax and
18,356 against the referendum.
The measure was originally
brought by the district to 225,918
registered voters in 2002. However,
there was a low response to the
question then, with 1,544 voting
yes and 1,181 voting no.
"What's happened is, they kept
the millage high even when our
real estate was booming, when


they should have been cutting it
back," said Walt Augustinowicz of
Englewood, a leading referendum
opponent. "They shouldn't have
spent all of that boom money and
could have had more when this
drops back."
Proponents of the referendum
say if it is not extended, about $38
million in program cuts will have to
be made in addition to $20 mil-
lion in cuts due to a reduction in
state funding and dipping property
tax values.

port of the referendum, visit www.
sarasotacountyschools.net or www.
sarasotacbs.com (Citizens for Bet-
ter Schools). For more informa-
tion against the tax, visit www.

Southwest District Clean Marina

"It encourages and assists yacht

"VYC is proud to be a leader in
responsible stewardship of our
environment to our neighbors and


our community," said Yarzab.
The club has conducted out-
reach activities including recy-
cling, boater safety and awareness
programs.
With the Crow's Nest Marina,
Venice Yacht Club is the second
clean marina in Venice. It's the
sixth in Sarasota County, 37th in
Florida's Southwest District and
210th in Florida.
The program was launched in
April 2000 when the state's Di-
vision of Law Enforcement created
the Florida Clean Boating Partner-
ship. It's objective is to protect nat-
ural resources and maintain clean
water with abundant wildlife
throughout the state.

they called "significant FCAT
gains" made in recent years as
proof that referendum dollars
are working, and challenged
Swier's insistence that FCAT
scores have gone down.
Opponents said the per-
centage of students who pass
some of the core classes isn't
anything to brag about.
According to the school dis-
trict Office of Research,
Assessment and Evaluation,
reading scores in grades four
and five went up from 66 per-
cent reading at grade level in
2005 to 71 percent in 2009.
Grades six, seven and eight
saw similar improvements,
from 59 percent to 68 percent.
Grades nine and 10 saw only
marginal success, going from
53 percent to 54 percent read-
ing at grade level over the same
time period. Similar incremen-
tal gains were found going


back to 2001 for math and
writing.
Instead of looking at incre-
mental gains over an arbitrary
two- or three-year window,
Augustinowicz said, the public
should be looking at how the
scores steadily declined as stu-
dents neared graduation. He
noted the district's 71 percent
achievement level at grades
four and five in 2009 went
down to 54 percent by grade
10.
What's more important, he
asked, a good third-grade
FCAT score and graduation
rate or lower FCATs as students
leave the school system?

Salaries
The vast majority of referen-
dum dollars has gone to
teacher salaries and incentive
pay, earning Sarasota County
teachers the second-highest


average teacher salary in the
state.
According to proponents,
those salaries are what allow
schools in implement innova-
tive programs, like providing
reading coaches who help
teachers pinpoint FCAT prob-
lems in the classroom, and AP
classes that allow students to
jumpstart their postsecondary
education while still in high
school.
Pinkerton and Kenney said
those are the types of pro-
grams the hallmark of suc-
cessful school systems that
could suffer should the refer-
endum fail.
County voters wanted and
got better teachers, and that
came at a price.
Swier argued there's no cor-
relation between the amount
of money going into teacher
salaries and student perfor-


mance.
The answer to the funding
dilemma, he said, is either to
institute a meaningful merit
pay program or allow all public
schools to become charter
schools, which hire and fire
teachers on their own and set
their own salaries.

Dropouts
When asked what effect the
referendum would have on the
dropout rate (and conversely,
the graduation rate) if the ref-
erendum failed, Kenny said
there "will be a higher dropout
rate."
Swier, a former member of
the Sarasota County Openly
Plans for Excellence work
group that studied the
dropout issue, asked how it's
relevant.
"There is no correlation or
causal effect between money


and dropouts," Swier said.
"The largest number of
dropouts occur in eighth to
ninth grades," the SCOPE
study found, and "they're not
even counted in our gradua-
tion rate."
"Their argument," he said,
"is, if you don't give us more
money, we'll do less for the
children.
"Our argument is, we have
given you more money and we
are getting less."
Kenney countered that no
matter how you calculate the
rate, it has improved over time.
The higher FCAT scores
from third grade on up and
improved graduation rates
could be due to referendum
dollars, Pinkerton said, espe-
cially those that held class sizes
lower than state requirements.

Real estate as I see it


Making final preparations for the opening of A Banyan Residence are
from the left Darren Burdi, maintenance supervisor, Celeste Carroll,
housekeeping manager, Karen Hamblin, marketing and admissions
coordinator, and Keith Anderson, director and administrator.


Banyan:'a home till the end'


BY ROGER BUTTON
BUSINEWS COLUMNIST

Bringing a quality lifestyle
into assisted living in a resort
atmosphere is the intention of
Keith Anderson, director and
administrator, who with his
brother, Gregg, the owner, is
opening A Banyan Residence,
100 E. Base Ave.
For five years, Gregg Ander-
son has operated Azalea Gard-
ens Assisted Living in Holly-
wood, Fla., a 35-room facility.
With a plan to expand to three
facilities, he acquired the Ven-
ice location.
Unoccupied and in need of
complete renovation, the
property has been redone.
Enhanced with "green" ener-
gy-efficient equipment and
fixtures, it is to receive state
approval this month.
There are accommodations
for more than 50 residents in
fully furnished private and
semi-private rooms for one to
three persons. The residence is
designed primarily for resi-
dents needing supervision and
assistance.
"It is a noninstitutional at-
mosphere where clients age
gracefully a home till the


end," said Anderson, who en-
courages new residents to
bring their pets.
Twenty-four-hour certified
nursing assistant services are
available. Independent con-
tractors provide pharmacy,
medical and podiatric ser-
vices. On-site portable X-ray
and laboratory services are
available.
Anderson has hired Venice
residents Karen Hamblin as
marketing and admissions
coordinator; Celeste Carroll as
housekeeping manager; and
Darren Burdi as maintenance
supervisor.
He is hiring 35 people in
total to provide continuity of
care.
A licensed clinical social
worker in Portland, Maine., for
25 years Keith Anderson coun-
seled children, adolescents
and families. In 2002 he pub-
lished "Denial and Discovery,"
a behind-the-scenes book of
psycho-sexual assessments.
In 2005 he joined his broth-
er at the Hollywood facility
and was director and adminis-
trator for five years until mov-
ing to Venice.

TIM PARADISE
REAL ESTATE COLUMNIST


Winter visitors are here in
full force, seemingly making a
mass exodus from the snow
belt to the sun belt. They are
discovering a Venice that is
showing strong signs of an
economic recovery.
Several area bank buildings
have been completed, or are on
the verge of completion, and an
industry goal of constructing a
drug store on every street comer
is becoming a local reality.
Nonetheless, commercial
real estate as a whole faces
many more challenges before
it can re-enter full business
mode. Lenders are still very
skeptical of making loans on
projects that show a high
vacancy ratio.
Future signs of higher em-
ployment will surely help kick
start the commercial Industry.
Until then, commercial devel-

opers are required to put huge
amounts of their own capital
into any project, to offset
potential lender risk.
Federal tax credits, on the
other hand, have served to stim-
ulate the Venice residential
buyer market. Many buyers of
primary residences (new and
resale) can qualify for up to
$8,000 in credits ($6,500 for
repeat home buyers and $8,000
for first-time buyers). There are
income limits and restrictions,
but in essence the government
will give you money to buy a
home.
To qualify, the Florida buyer
must enter into a real estate
contract by April 30 and close
the sale before July 1. The
deadlines are tight, especially
if you are considering a new
Venice home that is under
construction. The completion
date must comply with the tax
credit's June 30 expiration date.
The strict lending practices
felt in the commercial market
are easing a bit in the residen-
tial loan area, and mortgage
interest rates are hovering
around 5 percent (fixed for 30
years). The state of Florida has,
through the Sarasota Office of
Housing and Community
Development, (941) 951-3649,
initiated a program that allows
the buyer to borrow the $8,000

making a very sweet deal for
the first-time home seeker.
Your local lender can assist
with the loan down payment
application and forms. This
loan advantage is not available
for the repeat, $6,500 credit
home buyer.
Neither the first-time home
buyer tax credit nor the repeat
home buyer tax credit has to
be repaid unless the home is
sold or ceases to be used as the
buyer's principal residence
within three years after the ini-
tial purchase.
Several local and national
residential developers are now
in full building swing trying to
meet the needs of buyers seek-
ing to cash in on the combina-
tion of tax credit and low inter-
est rates before the incentives
expire at the end of June. Don't
count on any kind of tax pro-
gram extension once the dates
have passed. That happened
once already, back in Novem-
ber, and Congress is most un-
likely to approve another ex-
tension.

Suzanne Bartol has acquired
Polished Hair, Skin & Nail

Nokomis. The full-service

styling, natural and acrylic
nails, facials, pedicures, mas-

al look.

she recently acquired the nail
salon and has expanded it to
meet the needs of the com-
munity. She has seven
employees. It's open at 9 a.m.
Tuesday through Saturday.
Call 918-2162.
American Idol
Three hundred employees
of Tervis Tumbler, 201 Triple
Diamond Blvd., NorthVenice,
are in a musical frenzy as
America prepares to vote for
its favorite American Idol con-
testants, said Kim Livengood,
marketing manager.
Seven-year employee
Cathy Rowe is the grand-
mother of 16-year-old
American Idol contestant
Aaron Kelly. His cousin,
Patricia Butts, also works at
Tervis.


Livengood asks readers,
friends and viewers to join
Tervis employees in watching
American Idol so they can
vote for Kelly.
"Not only is he our favorite,
but he can actually sing," she
said.
Good response
"We are pleased, and I am
not surprised, at the number
of inquiries we are receiving
for the recently vacated posi-
tion of executive director for
Venice MainStreet Inc.," said
Janis Fawn, MainStreet presi-
dent.
Chairing the committee is
Larry McLaren, vice president
of the organization and for-
merly with TIB Bank.
Applications have to be sub-
mitted by March 12 to VMS
apply@gmail.com.
Storage needed
Donations and distribu-
tions are increasing the pres-
sure for storage at the South
County Food Pantry,
Emmanuel Lutheran Church,
790 South Tamiami Trail. For
its present and long-term
needs it's seeking a climate-
controlled location of 500


square feet or more, nearer its
distribution center.
At the moment it's using a
storage area off the island
costing $200 a month.
Because the pantry is a non-
profit, a storage space dona-
tion would be tax deductible.
The Venice Area Chamber of
Commerce is assisting orga-
nizers Mike and Debbie
Gippert with this project.
Operated totally by volun-
teers, the pantry feeds deserv-

GANGS from Page 1A
members in Southwest
Florida.
The FBI reports an
estimated 1 million gang
members in the United
States. According to Mc-
Collum, Florida is the
"fastest growing gang
state in the country with
more than 1,500 gangs
with 70,000 to 80,000
members." McCollum
said there's at least one
gang member in state
prison in all 67 counties.
Last year, members or
associates of Sur 13 were
arrested for allegedly
burglarizing more than
20 homes on Clark and
Fruitville roads near
Interstate 75.
On the radar
Sarasota Police Officer
Kim Swatts tracks gang
members as the depart-
ment's gang coordinator.
She has been docu-
menting gang activity in
the city of Sarasota for
years. She has case files
with the names and pho-
tographs of gang mem-
bers. Swatts knows their
hand signs, colors,
"beefs" with one another
and territory.
She knows members
of home-grown gangs in
Sarasota such as 24th
Street Boys and Second
Line. The two gangs are
like family.
She also tracks the
activities of more well-
known gangs such as
local members of Sur 13
and Norte 14. Both origi-
nated from California
and have made their way
across the nation. They
don't get along.
"They usually commit
crimes against each
other," she said, adding
that there is a trend of
second-generation chil-
dren and teens entering
the gang lifestyle.
"Second Line is a gang
whose members are
younger than the adults
in the 24th Street Boys,"


she said. "Those gangs
generally get along."
Still, Swatts keeps all
gangs on her radar. Neigh-
borhoods are "saturated"
with patrol officers when
investigators believe trou-
ble is brewing among rival
members.
"Hybrid gangs can be
worse because they aren't
always organized and
don't have real leader-
ship," she said.
She has investigated
gang-related crimes in-
cluding drive-bys, rob-
beries, fights, burglaries,
gun and drug trafficking
and homicide.
"You name it, they do
it," she said.
Warning signs
The Sarasota County
Sheriff's Office said there
are warning signs of
teens' involvement in
gang activity. These in-
clude aligning clothing to
the right or left, collecting
or carrying weapons
(brass knuckles, bats, raz-
ors or knives) and com-
ing home with unex-
plained injuries such as
bruises or black eyes.
More signs include graffi-
ti in books or bedrooms;
declining grades; new
friends they won't bring
around; sudden posses-
sion of money and prop-
erty; disrespect for
adults; haircuts or eye-

talking in slang; using
hand signs; clothing or
hats in one particular
color or brand; and vio-
lent behavior.
Just as parents need to
be vigilant about a teen's
possible gang-related be-
haviors, area law en-
forcement officials also
work to recognize new
trends, rivals and activi-
ties among gangs.
Swatts said some
gangs create rap songs to
disguise themselves as a
"rap group and not a
gang." Gangs are also
using social networking
Web sites such as My-
Space and Facebook to
attract more members.
In 2009, a new law went
into effect making it a
third-degree felony to
use the Web to promote
gangs.
Swatts said some
teens are vulnerable and
consider themselves out-


siders. If a gang member
gains the teen's trust and
respect because no
one else pays attention
- the teen becomes an
easy recruit. The good
news, Swatt said, is gangs
often don't solicit for
members.
With hundreds of doc-
umented gang members
in Hillsborogh, Pasco
and Manatee counties,
Sarasota County Sheriff
Tom Knight said he's
concerned gang mem-
bers may become dis-
placed.
He said members may
try to find new turf in
Sarasota County or near-
by Charlotte County.
"We want to get in
front of the problem," he
said. "We work with all
surrounding agencies to
be proactive in this prob-
lem."

"The city's true desire

OPINION


GONDOLIER SUN EDITOR
BOB MUDGE
bmudge@venicegondolier.com


OUR VIEW



Pay issues need to be addressed


W hen Sarasota County voters
first approved an additional 1-
mill school tax eight years ago,
we were told higher salaries were need-
ed to attract and retain high-quality
teachers. There was a teacher shortage
then, so it made sense. In 2010, at a
time of lower resources, the higher-pay
policy has become a burden.
We believe top-flight teachers
should be well compensated, but also
question whether current salary rates
have gone too far.
The average teacher salary is now
$54,852, the second-highest average
in the state. A first-year teacher with a
bachelor's degree made $38,530 this
year. After 10 years, a teacher with a
master's degree will earn $49,000; in
addition, that teacher would receive a
longevity bonus of $1,252.
It's no wonder, given those figures,
that some taxpayers blanch at teacher
salaries, especially during a recession.
Combined compensation annual
raises, step raises and longevity pay-
has out-paced inflation. The public
sees a gulf in the economic reality
between those inside the school sys-


tem and the rest of the public outside.
It simply seems overly generous.
We do understand the school
board has pulled in the reins in re-
sponse to changing economic condi-
tions during the past two years. Salary
increases were kept to 2 percent in the
2008-2009 fiscal year and zero in
2009-2010. Teachers also have agreed
to give-backs: Last year, the family
subsidy was removed from health
insurance plans and deductibles were
raised. Instructional development
time was cut, effectively reducing
teacher pay.
The question is whether this was
too little, done too late to change
impressions. It's fair to question
whether, considering that roughly 80
percent of all district costs go to salary
and benefits, the school board has
created an unsustainable system.
We also take issue with boosting pay
raises for all staff across the board.
The enticing promise in previous
referendum campaigns of better
salaries for more-qualified teachers
has translated into higher pay for
everyone. (Of the district's total 5,224


staff, roughly half are involved in
instruction.)
We don't begrudge anyone fair pay
for a solid day's work and we don't
believe the non-instructional pay
scales are wildly out of whack. (The
average custodian, for instance, made
$28,591 in 2009.) It's just not clear how
higher pay for everyone translates
into higher quality education for chil-
dren. Voters wanted more money in
instructional programs; the brush
may have been applied too broadly.
We also believe most voters would
welcome a merit-based salary sys-
tem. Some- perhaps many- teach-
ers deserve high pay for outstanding
work. Some perhaps many -
should be in a different line of work.
Until management and labor figure
out a system that rewards excellence
and cuts dead wood, this will contin-
ue to be a problem for the people who
pay the bills.
They also want to know that what
they're getting for continuing to pay
an optional tax. School tax supporters
point to higher graduation rates,
lower dropout rates and gains in


FCAT scores. Standardized test scores
have risen, but that's also true for
counties that don't have the benefit of
special taxes, like Charlotte County.
Still, Sarasota County can point to
many recognized assessments of
quality. The graduation rate of 85 per-
cent is considered high. The drop-out
rate is at an all-time low, 1.8 percent.
(The numbers don't match because
not every student who doesn't get a
standard diploma in four years is a
drop-out.) The district is among the
state's top 10 districts in FCAT reading
and math scores.
The continuing national debate
about standardized testing only
shows how difficult quality measure-
ments can be. But we would suggest
looking at it another way: Just imag-
ine the level of criticism if the scores
were lower, if the county's schools
weren't all in the "A" and "B" cate-
gories. Critics would pound the table
if that were the case. It's only fair to
hand out gold stars when it is other-
wise.

Saturday: Educational realities.


In the doghouse


l -


LANG CAPASSO
PUBLISHER


Ever had one of those days
where you are just sitting
there, minding your own busi-
ness, and all of a sudden you
are caught up in something
beyond your control? That
happened to me the other day
as I sat in a local coffee shop
enjoying the aroma of a just-
brewed cup of java.
I guess it was my fault, as I
was the one initiating the con-
versation. A women sitting
near me who was talking to
someone else said, "She be-
longs to a group that saves and
cares for collies." Not thinking
what a chasm I was entering, I
casually asked, "What would
you do if a boxer was in trou-
ble?" Her reply was instant and
to the point: "Oh, the boxers
have their own group of peo-
ple to protect them."
Again without thinking, I
said, 'And I suppose the cocker
spaniels do too?" "Yes" she
replied, "most breeds do."
Then she came back with,
"You don't like dogs, do you?"
As I saw my world slowly col-
lapse around me and felt an
immediate need for air and
sunshine, the thought of bolt-
ing for the front door started
forming in my anti-dog brain.
Instead, sinking deeper, I
replied I don't have one as a pet
but if they are well mannered
and on a leash or a fenced in
backyard, I guess they are OK. I
wanted to add that I used to
have a collie and a cocker
spaniel when I was growing up
but did not see the need.
"I am passionate about col-
lies," came from nowhere as I


sat there in silence wishing I
had stayed that way about
three minutes ago. Then the
knock-out punch came: "Are
you passionate about any-
thing?" My only thought was,
"If there is a God in heaven,
please take me away."
As I looked at her, many
issues went through my mind
that I could or could not be
passionate about but in reality,
none of them seemed impor-
tant at that time or at least
not to share with her.
Now, I'm a true middle-of-
the-roader, and I realized a
long time ago that whatever
the issue, question or puzzle,
everything and I mean
everything boils down to a
"yes" or "no" answer. Even in
"decision by indecision," you
have chosen a path that lets
someone else answer the "yes"
or "no" question for you.
In the split second I sat
there looking at her, none of
those thoughts left my lips,
and I answered with a weak
and lame, "No, not really," and
turned back to my coffee. The
only real reply that entered my
failing brain was, "Yes, I am
very passionate about some
things. I am specifically pas-
sionate about people who
have chips on their shoulders
or want to impose their think-
ing on anyone around them."
Wanting to end the conver-
sation and get out with some
sense of sanity and wonder-
ment, I left. The wonder came
as I tried to figure out how I get
myself into these predica-
ments and, second, why
someone would take care of a
collie and leave a boxer in
trouble to the next guy. Oh,
well we walk by bell ringers,
vets with poppies and fund-
raisers for high schools at local
grocery stores or retailers.
The real truth is, if there is
an animal in trouble it has a
better chance of being cared
for than a human being in
trouble.

weekly column for this page.

WHAT SIGNS OF ECONOMIC RECOVERY DO YOU SEE IN THE VENICE AREA? CALL 207-1111.


What's in a name?

Round and round. I've lived where there were roundabouts.
They're called roundabouts because you get on and go round
and round and round and sometimes never get off. Fender-ben-
ders galore and people shouting bad words. Repave the inter-
section and leave it as is. I drive it five to 10 times a day and it
should not be changed. Also, the special referendum on the
school property tax is very expensive. Guess who is going to pay
for that?


Get serious. I think we
need to be serious about this
1-mill school property tax in
March. I wonder if they con-
sider it a joke. How long do
they think they can keep on
keeping on without people like
us who are older? I certainly
will be voting against it.
Here's how. How will I be
voting on the 1-mill school
property tax? I will be voting
against it.
Arrogance. No, I will not be
voting for the council again.
They have cost us too much
money and their arrogance is
too much.
Not helping. My answer to
extending the 1-mill property
tax? I definitely will vote no. We
have had enough taxes. People
are hurting and the schools are
just going for salaries. The
schools are not helping the
children at all.
High enough. I will vote no
on any more taxes. My taxes are
high enough as it is. No, no tax.
No good. I live in Venice
and I would not vote for
another tax for the school. I
don't think it did any good. The
children haven't learned any-
thing better than in any other
school. The money is being
used for things it should not be
used for. I think we've been
taxed enough now.
Choices. Here are some
thoughts in reference to your
article on Protesters Seek Bish-
op's Ear: You know the Catholic
Church is what it is. If you like
what it is, you belong to the
church. If you don't like what it
is, you find another church.


Let em


Have It


There are plenty of choices.
Then, you can take all of the
time and all of the energy used
in protesting and give it to a
local charity. God would prob-
ably like that.
About her. This is in refer-
ence to Sue Lang and her self-
serving agenda. It totally blows
my mind to hear someone say
that Sue Lang is doing a great
job. You wonder, a great job of
what, other than looking after
Sue Lang? She couldn't care
less how her actions affect the
rest of the community. It's all
about her. If I were her, I would
be totally embarrassed to own
a home near the airport and
spend the taxpayers' money
fighting to try to move it.
Italiano. The new perfor-
mance center at Venice High


School should definitely have
an Italian appearance. It's very
important to maintain the
appearance and the beautiful
Venice that we now have.
Appalled. I'm calling about
your article on the protesters.
I'm so appalled by people who
insist on trying to force their
way of thinking and acting up-
on others and have no respect
for the rights of others in well-
established organizations. On-
ly those in error use force.
First, the Call to Action people,
are not constitutional Amer-
icans. Second, these Call to
Action people do not know the
word of God, the Bible. This
book is the complete history of
Earth, man, what went wrong,
the solution and finally, the
end. God said, "Man shall not
live by bread alone, but by
every word that proceedeth
out of the mouth of God."
Read that last sentence again,
everybody. Nowhere in this
great account of man has one
single woman ever been given
authority anywhere and in any
place in worship or anywhere
else. God gave authority and
power to man for obvious rea-
sons, as clearly shown by Call
to Action people. Those who
were not happy where they
were, left. They formed their
own church. That's exactly
why there are thousands of
denominations and religions.
God gave everyone free will to
choose their own way, but cer-
tainly not to force others to fol-
low them. A bit of fact in
humor: The definition of a cult
is any church that does not
line up with the word of God.
The largest cult in America?
The Catholic Church.
Appearances. As a caller and
resident of Venice, I would like
the Northern Italian appearance
on the symphony hall.
Important. Yes, I'm voting
for continuing the school tax.
Obviously, it's important for
our children and the next gen-
eration of decision-makers.

LETTERS FROM OUR READERS

Who cares what 'they say?

Editor:
The continuing discussion of classification of the
Venice airport is getting old.
Very simply, the FAA is required to offer classification
accordingto "proven traffic." Either the FAA abides by its
own regulations or its actions become illegal.
In variant traffic situations, all variances of time
and special conditions have to be taken into account.
The regulations are quite clear in that any variable is
to be made factual through real statistics.
In this case, a real count shows comprehensive proof
of traffic supporting the classification. Facts and esti-
mates being two entirely different things, the count in
this case has to be a "full" count, reason being that the
count of traffic is being used as the crux of the issue.
Due to the fact that the FAA is accepting an esti-
mate as fact and this has been challenged, the FAA is
required to now offer real proof.
The FAA can be legally challenged to prove its
assumption in classification. After being denied, the
city needs to take it to court.
If the FAA is found to be offering false reports of any
kind, those making these arbitrary decisions are guilty
under their own regulations false affidavit, fraud,
impugning the rights of the municipality and misuse
of authority, to name a few.
Of course, this all depends on whether the city
wants the reclassification enough and is tired of the
federal government and its entities telling us that they
are in charge.

The warmth of
human kindness
Editor:
Last week we, with
friends, stopped at Gianni's
for pizza after a movie.
Shortly after arriving, my
husband became ill. He
was chilled, and as we were
trying to add anything we
had to warm him, a lady at
another table, a total strang-
er to us, came and offered a
warm jacket for him. This
was a beautiful act of kind-
ness.
The owner and man-
agement of Gianni's could
not have been nicer, doing
everything to help us. The
reason for writing this is to
focus on the many really
good people in our won-
derful world.

Maybe we should
give it back
Editor:
As an almost weekly
occurrence, we continue to
see the same trio of council
members flout the wisdom
and professionals of the
FAA. And as correctly re-
ported, the bills for these
actions continue. Yes, you
can make the airport board
go away, but not the FAA.
One concern that does-
n't get much attention is
safety. With the fairly new
global positioning system
using satellite information,
it provides pilots with
basic lateral navigation
to an airport. The FAA is
now developing an im-
proved accuracy ap-
proach that will provide
vertical guidance to every
airport in the continental
United States. The airport

Le Tour de Venice redux


DON HAY
GUEST COLUMNIST

Several years ago, Ven-
ice Area Beautification
Inc. started selling a T-
shirt that has become a
favorite for bikers Le
Tour de Venice. We are
often asked when the Tour
is or was, and whether we
are going to have it again.
So, due to popular de-
mand, the second Le Tour
de Venice will be held on
the morning of Saturday,
March 13.
Now, before all you
Lance Armstrong wanna-
bes break out in a cold
sweat, this is not a test of
physical prowess. It is a
family event, not a race,
that will guide partici-
pants on a tour ofVenice.
A poker run will allow all
ages to compete for
prizes. Whether you walk,
ride, skate or board, you
can be a part of this fun
event.
Registration begins at
8:30 a.m. and the event
ends at noon. Prizes will
be awarded at that time.
All players must register
to participate. Registra-
tion will be held at the
Venetian Waterway Park
trailhead office of Venice
Area Beautification Inc.
Cost to participate is
$30. This fee includes one
five-card poker hand,
membership as a VABI
enthusiast and a free T-
shirt for the first 100 regis-
trants. Additional hands
are $10 each.
Those who roll will go


on a 10- or 20-mile ride
including the Venetian
Waterway Park, stopping
along the way to pick out
five playing cards. The
walkers will take a five-
mile stroll through Ven-
ice, also picking out five
playing cards. Bikers and
walkers will have two
hours to complete the
course. Players on bicy-
cles should not play the
pedestrian route due to
safety issues.
Participants must go
to all five stops on the
poker-run course. Your
participation card will be
stamped at each stop to
ensure that you have
completed the course.
At each stop, you must
hand your participation
card to the official, then
reach into the poker card
bag and draw out a card.
The official will stamp
the appropriate space on
your game card. To en-
sure fairness, you will al-
ways draw from a full
deck of 52 cards. If you
happen to draw a card
that you already have in
your hand, you simply re-
place that card and draw a
new one. Once the game
card is marked, you may
continue to the next stop.
When you have gone
to all five stops and com-
pleted your five-card
hand, you are ready to
return to the trailhead. If
you have to miss a stop
due to the deadline, you
may draw that card at the
trailhead check-in sta-
tion. You may also pur-
chase up to five bonus
cards at a cost of $5 each
to get a better hand.
You choose your five
best cards and then de-
clare your hand at the
check-in station. After de-
claring which five cards
you wish to keep, you will
take your card backto the
registration table to turn

WORDS WORTH
HEARING
*B*^.,^^ ';"


Vicki M. Connell
Doctor of Audiology

AARP supports
legislation that
provides up to a
$1,000 tax credit for
two hearing aids.

The bi-partisan
Hearing Aid Tax
Credit was introduced
by Reps. Carolyn
McCarthy (D-NY) and
Vern Ehlers (R-MI) to
provide assistance to
some of the 32 million
people who need a
hearing aid to treat
their hearing loss.
Medicare expressly
excludes coverage of
hearing aids as do
most private insurance
policies, and as a
result, cost is cited as a
prohibitive factor by
two thirds of the
people who do not
treat their hearing loss.
If enacted, H.R. 1646
would provide a $500
tax credit per hearing
aid for children and
people age 55 and
older. While hearing
aids can treat 95% of
all hearing losses, only
22% of those who
could benefit from
them actually use
them. Rep. McCarthy
notes that "this bill
would provide some
assistance to people
who need hearing aids
to reach their full
potential, and it would
do so in a fiscally
responsible way."
Contact your Senators
and Representatives at
www.hearingaidtaxcre
dit.org and let them
know how important
this bill is to you and

Hearing & Balance
Center, Inc. at (941)

Wild animals

among us

In my almost 20 years liv-
ing in the city limits ofVenice,
I've been witness to at least
70 or 80 different wild ani-
mals.
Let us start in the surf,
jetty, bays, lakes, ponds,
creeks and intracoastal. In
the freshwater are the posi-
tive ones first coyotes,
bobcats, skunks, raccoons,
armadillos, alligators, liz-
ards, turtles, snakes, ibis,
herons, egrets, wood storks,
sandhill cranes, anhingas,
cormorants, Florida buz-
zards, owls, eagles and
osprey
The fish list grows and
grows. Largemouth bass,
brown and yellow bull-
heads, walking catfish, cray-
fish, talapia, crappies, many
varieties of bluegills, carp
were seen in the city limits. I
won't even start with the
saltwater fish or other salt-
water animals. Or the possi-
ble sighting of a Florida pan-
ther or cayman sunbathing
in my backyard.
The more I think about
my list, it has to be more
than 100 animals. Amazing
but 100 percent true. This
was all from memory so I'm
sure I left many out.
Well, fellow Sheepshead-
ites, the time has come to say

.. Skogen's double carries Venice


Venice's Brent Skogen has
been practicing hitting the ball
the other way.
The senior outfielder showed
he's learning after hitting a two-
run double into right field in the
sixth inning to lift the Indians to
a 5-3 win over Port Charlotte on
Friday in a Class 5A-District 10
game at Venice High.
Tied 3-3, Venice's Michael
Knott reached on the Pirates'
fourth error of the game as the
ball bounced off the second
baseman's glove. However,
Knott was forced out at second
base on a bunt attempt. Alec
Stiver followed with a single
over shortstop. A wild pitch by
Port Charlotte's Daniel Schiller
moved Aaron Rhodes to third
base and courtesy runner Josh
Boyle to second base.
On a 1-1 count, Skogen lined
a double down the right field
line to score Rhodes and Boyle.
"I knew he was throwing me
a lot of curveballs and I was
thinking the only fastballs he
was giving me were off the
plate," said Skogen. "I knew he
was going to give me a pitch.
He gave me a fastball on the
black (outside of plate) so I
took it the other way."
"One thing he did well is he
sat back and drove the ball the
other way," said Venice coach
Craig Faulkner. "The last cou-
ple of days, we've worked on
him going to right field, going
to right field because this guy is
a breaking ball lefty. He put that
into practice and did a nice
job."

blad singled to lead off the top

Jack May wants an immediate future on
the basketball court, but his career goal will
take him to a higher court.
The 6-foot-6 senior center at Venice
Christian School wants to play college ball
in the fall and, eventually, become a judge.
"I've always had my plans since the
ninth grade," said May, who admits to
being a big "CSI" and Sherlock Holmes fan.
After a season of averaging a double-
double for the successful boys basketball
team, May is searching for colleges, send-
ing out letters and talking to some college
coaches. He plans on sending out video
tapes of him playing soon.

VENICE DOWNS PORT CHARLOTTE: Venice scored all of its runs
in the first two innings as the Lady Indians edged Port Charlotte, 4-
2, Tuesday night in a Class 5A-District 10 game at Port Charlotte.
Venice (8-1 overall, 2-0 district) scored a run in the first
inning on a RBI single by Mel Dembinski then added three in the
second inning on a RBI single by Amber Yonker and two-run sin-
gle by Chelsea Zgrabik.
Junior Mel Dembinski got the win for Venice to raise her
record to 5-1. She only allowed three hits with four strikeouts.
Port Charlotte's only runs came in the fourth inning on a two-
run home run by Rachel Guzman.
Yonker and Zgrabik had three hits each while Kelly Ott added
two hits.

Pensacola Christian.
A friendly atmosphere
and academics are a big part
of his collegiate choice.
"I want to go to a school
where they care about you
getting good grades and get- May
ting a good job," said May,
who wants his choice done by end of the
month.
His sights are set on UCF or Palm Beach
Atlantic but financially, he isn't ruling out
Pensacola Christian.
"I don't want to have any debt in col-

In addition to an athletic scholarship,
May, who is the student body president

use a Bright Futures Scholarship.

VENICE PLACES NINTH IN BOBCAT RELAYS:
Venice's Brian Clark, Eric Medrano, Nikki Swanson
and Heather Williams grabbed first place in mixed
pole vault relay at the 4th annual Coed Bobcat
Relays on Friday at North Port High.


Playing in college is something, May has
always wanted.
"I think about it every day," he said with
a huge smile on his face.
The college would need to fit his skill
set.
"If they need a guy, who can push down
low and is a little smaller and knows how to
pop out the 3-pointer sometimes, I would
jump on the chance," he said.
May doesn't want the fact he played for
a small school affect how people evaluate
him.
"I say the competition might be differ-

there on a good display," said May, who
can dunk the ball. "I played guys that were

on the mound and allowed five
hits with eight strikeouts.
The Indians (2-4 overall, 1-1
district) opened up scoring in
the first inning after Schiller
had trouble finding the strike
zone.
After striking out the first
batter, Cameron Sloan and
James Browning walked. Krauss
singled into center field. Sloan
slowed down rounding third
base then was thrown out by
third baseman Lundblad. Matt
Tellor reached on an error by
the shortstop as the ball pulled
the first baseman Marlon Nava
off the base. Kevin Guthrie sin-
gled into right field to score
Krauss. The Indians added
another run after the cutoff
throw from the right fielder was
thrown past the first baseman
down the right field line scor-
ing Tellor with the third run.
Port Charlotte (1-5, 0-2) got
two runs in the third inning
with a little help from the 20
mph wind blowing straight out
to left field.
Jared McElwee got the
Pirates' first hit off Venice
starter Krauss with a single into
right field. Lundblad followed
by lofting a high fly into left
field. Wind carried the ball
behind the left fielder for a
wind-blown double moving
McElwee to third base. A
passed ball scored McElwee
then Troy Fratina into short
leftfield just missed on a diving
play scoring Lundblad. Port
Charlotte got runners on first

points on him."
May attended Sarasota Military
Academy before transferring to VCS
after the school expanded through the
12th grade.
He ended up transferring because
he wanted to be closer to his home in
North Port.
The school has a total of 235 stu-
dents, including 30 in high school and
55 in middle school.
In June, the private school will grad-
uate a class of seniors, including May,
for the first time in its 23 years.
"This is a really good environment,
so I felt right at home," said May, who
lived in Detroit before moving to North
Port two years ago.
The 17-year-old, who weighs 193
pounds, helped lead the Lions to 14-6
record in the Florida Christian
Conference. He was recently named to
the FCC Western Conference All-Star


team with his teammate Robert Dolby.
During the season, he finished with 11
double-doubles and highs of 21 points
and 28 rebounds.
On the season, he average a double-
double with 12.4 points per game and
14.4 rebounds per game. He shot 56
percent from the field and 60 percent
from the foul line. He finished with 209
points, 252 rebounds, 14 blocks and 18
steals.
"I missed two games and we lost
those two games and it cost us sec-
ond seed (in the Florida Christian
Conference)," said May. "I thought we
had a pretty good season. I enjoyed
my senior year. I played with my best
friends, so it was a nice way to go
out."
May played his final game for the
Lions in the quarterfinals of the FCC
playoffs but was so ill, he struggled to
get up and down the court.


"If I wasn't sick, we could have beat
them (Kissimmee's Heritage Christian)
easily," said May.
May was selected to play for the
Western Division in the Florida
Christian Conference All-Star game. He
finished with 11 points and 10
rebounds in the West's 111-82 victory.
May was one of just eight players on
the team.
Last year at VCS, he said, he was the
focal point of the offense and scored 20
points a game.
"This year I learned I didn't have to
do everything so I learned to distribute
the ball," said May. "I learned to pass
the ball better."
At 4 years old, May started playing
basketball when brother Dan, who is
two years older, got him started.
"He was the one who probably
taught me the fundamentals," said
May.


The two also played together on a
few teams growing up.
"He played outside (as guard) and I
played inside (as center)," said May.
"We just clicked. We used to do no-look
passes and we knew where each of us
was."
May is quick to establish that
although he had better scoring num-
bers than his brother, his brother was
the "better all-around player."
Although May towers over his team-
mates now, he points out that in sev-
enth grade, he was preparing himself to
play anything but the center position as
he only stood 5-foot-7.
In one summer before his senior
year, May's height shot up from 6-foot
to 6-foot-4.
"I think I gained 20 pounds that
summer too," said May

POLICE BEAT


Teacher's fourth DUI
AVenice Middle
School music teacher
was spotted driving
drunk, according to a
Sarasota County
Sheriff's Office report. A
Ronald Jodwalis, 52,
3000 blockWilliams-
burg St., Nokomis, was
arrested and charged Jodwalis
with DUI-fourth of-
fense and driving while
license suspended-first offense. His
bond is $10,120.
A motorist pulled alongside a SCSO
deputy's car in the parking lot of 2612
Stickney Point Road, Sarasota, to tell
the deputy that a very drunk older
white male in a white Buick four-door
had pulled into the BP gas station.
The motorist said Jodwalis was all
over the road and was going to kill
someone.
The deputy observed Jodwalis sit-
ting in the driver's seat with the car
parked extremely close to the gas
pump. The deputy said it appeared
Jodwalis was eating yellow paper.
When the deputy made contact with
him, Jodwalis was eating a yellow
wrapper that came from food he had
on his lap. The deputy said his eyes
were bloodshot and glassy and he
observed obvious swaying of Jodwalis'
upper torso in all directions while he
was seated.
When the deputy asked if they
could talk and Jodwalis opened his car
door, the deputy said he reeked of
alcohol. The deputy saw the keys in
the ignition but the car was not run-
ning. Jodwalis tried to speak but his
speech was extremely slurred and
inaudible. When the deputy asked him
to exit the car, Jodwalis fell into the gas
pump and the deputy had to catch
him.
The deputy wrote in the report that
he assisted Jodwalis to the rear of his
car where he slumped onto the trunk.
Jodwalis relied heavily on the car or
the deputy to stay upright.


Jodwalis told the deputy that he was
drunk in an answer to most questions
the deputy asked him. He said he had
just come from a bar down the road
where he'd had a lot of vodka. Jodwalis
also said he takes medication for
depression, but he couldn't remember
how much or what kind. He just said
he was drunk.
He couldn't perform any of the field
sobriety tests. When asked to walk and
turn, he couldn't follow the instruc-
tions.
According to the report, Jodwalis
could not stand with his feet side by
side while on the line between the gas
pumps, and though told not to start,
began attempting to walk the line but
was not even close to being on the
line. Jodwalis then stopped and said he
couldn't perform the task "because I'm
drunk. No way. Not happening. Not
even close. I'm drunk. I surrender."
And he refused to continue.
The deputy wanted Jodwalis to do
the one-leg stand. But Jodwalis refused
stating, "I'm drunk. I told you, I'm
drunk."
At the jail, Jodwalis submitted to a
breath test and blew .314, .285 and
.289. The Florida DUI limit is .08.
Jodwalis also told the deputy he
didn't have a driver license, but he did
show him his Florida ID card. A
records search revealed his license had
been revoked because of the three pre-
vious DUIs.
Scott Ferguson, communications
specialist with the Sarasota County
School District, said Jodwalis, who has
been with the district since 1996, isn't
in any danger of losing his job because
of his DUI arrest.
That's because the collective-bar-
gaining agreement between the dis-
trict and the teachers union specifies
that off-duty behavior, unless it mani-
fests itself in the classroom, is not a
cause for discipline.
"While we certainly note it, and he
has the duty to self-report any convic-
tions and certain other legal issues, as
long as it doesn't affect his classroom


work, he would not lose his job,"
Ferguson said.
He said the district would be check-
ing Jodwalis' absentee rate. He missed
Monday, and the district had a substi-
tute teacher take over his classes that
day. Jodwalis returned to work on
Tuesday.
Ferguson reported that Jodwalis has
had four absences since the school
year began; that is not excessive, he
said, and they were not consecutive.


Those days did not include Monday's
absence.
What other steps the district might
take would depend on whether
Jodwalis is incarcerated long-term,
according to Ferguson.

POLICE from Page 12A


according to aVenice Police
Department report.
Patricia Esteve had known since
Feb. 1, that her son, Peter Newton
Esteve, was wanted for arrest in con-
nection with the armed burglary of a .
dwelling and dealing in stolen proper-
ty. Still, she drove to Checkers, 1721
South Tamiami Trail, and purchased a
meal for him. Esteve
Eleven minutes after the purchase
of the meal, VPD officers stopped
Patricia for an expired license plate.
Just prior to the stop, officers saw
movement in the rear seat of her car.
Asked to let the officers look in the
trunk of her car, she refused.
She was reminded of the warrant
for her son and asked for a second
time to allow officers to search the
trunk. Again she refused. Esteve
Later the same morning, when
Patricia drove away from her residence, VPD officers
were watching. They followed her to the 600 block of
South Tamiami Trail.
She drove through a gas station parking lot with-
out stopping and behind a business on a con-
cealed road, stopped her car and waited about two
minutes.
She then got out of her car and looked around, got
back in and drove about 20 feet farther down the
road. She got out again and looked around, then
went to the trunk of her car and assisted her son,
Peter, out of the trunk and gave him cigarettes.
She then allowed him to get into the rear seat of
the car and was about to leave when VPD officers
stopped her.
At the time of their arrests, Peter had a check writ-
ten to him by Patricia for $80 from her checking
account, and he was in possession of her Visa debit
card and a set of keys to her car, all proving she was
aiding her son in avoiding the police.
Patricia said her son had placed the food in the
trunk but she did not know he was hiding in the
vehicle.
But the officers re-enacted getting from the
backseat to the trunk and said photos show that a
person driving the car would have seen and heard
a person in the back seat accessing the trunk from
there.
Patricia Esteve, 300 block E. Base Ave., Venice, was
arrested and charged with two counts of aiding pris-
oner escape. Her bond is $10,000.
Peter Esteve, 300 block E. Base Ave., Venice, was
arrested on the outstanding warrant and charged
with armed burglary of a dwelling, structure or con-
veyance and dealing in stolen property. His bond is
$50,000.
Domestic battery
A victim told Sarasota County Sheriff's deputies
that while her boyfriend was asleep in her bed, she
was looking through his cell phone for signs of infi-


SUN NEWSPAPERS 13A


delity, according to the report.
Apparently, she found what she
was looking for.
She awoke her boyfriend and con-
fronted him about cheating on her.
She told deputies he was intoxi-
cated and he "snapped," pushing the
victim around the house, punching
her and slamming her into walls
causing cuts and bleeding on both Baker
forearms.
The victim said he smashed her TV and broke her
coffee table. He fled the scene before deputies
arrived.
Christopher Allen Baker, 40, 3600 block Clematis
Road, Venice, was arrested and charged with battery.
Bond: $120.
Double domestic
Sarasota County Sheriff's Office
deputies arrested a boyfriend and girl-
friend in connection with committing
domestic violence on one another
according to the report. .
Deputies first talked with Scott
Kendrick Brutsche, who said he and
his girlfriend, Phylis P Kitchens, were
arguing because he wanted to rest
after work. Brutsche
When Kitchens started yelling,
Brutsche went to his room and closed the door.
Kitchens was banging on the bedroom door and said


she needed to get some clothes from
the room.
Brutsche said he unlocked the
door and went back to bed. Kitchens
went over to the bed and started hit-
ting and pushing him.
Brutsche said he got out of bed and
pushed her away from him and told
her he was going to call the police.
Though Kitchens had a screwdriver in Kitchens
her hand, she did not go after him
with it.
Kitchens left the house before deputies arrived.
Brutsche said the two had been boyfriend and
girlfriend for about two and a half years.
When deputies caught up with Kitchens, she had
another story to tell.
While deputies were talking with Kitchens about
her abuse of Brutsche, she said that Brutsche
punched her in the "breadbasket," and claimed to
have the bruises to prove it.
She showed the deputy the right side of her rib
cage where he could see a bruise.
Brutsche and Kitchens share a residence and have
a history of domestic violence, according to the
report.
Kitchens, 45, 300 block Briarwood Road, Venice,
was arrested and charged with domestic battery. Her
bond is $1,000.
Brutsche, 53, of the same address, was arrested
and charged with domestic battery. His bond is
$1,000.

keepers, creepers...Watters is back

Jeepers, creepers...Watters is back


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR


In "The Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening" of March 6, Venice's favorite song-and-
dance man, Eric Watters, will weave his "Old Black Magic" at the Church of the
Nazarene.
While little children "Hit the Road to Dreamland," Watters will be "Whistling
Away in the Dark," singing about "Emily" and "Lorna" and a "Satin Doll" as he pays
tribute to Johnny Mercer, one of America's great songwriters.
The occasion is "My Huckleberry Friend," Watters' 17th fundraiser for the
Venice Symphony's education program. In addition to raising more than $200,000
over the years, Watters also has educated countless fans about America's music
and music-makers. For example:
"The 'Strip Polka' was the first hit issued hI\ ( .pil, I;)1 lh. \. \\tL- i %II It
recently. "It was recorded by Johnny Mercei him -
self. The flip side was 'The CowCow
Boogie.'
"Mercer founded the company."

Preparation
Known for his in-depth preparation
as much as for his musical talent, Watters
has presented the music of Harry Warren
(2005), the music of World War II (2007)
and music based on the theme of travel
(2003). The entertainer goes beyond
singing and dancing, sharing the results of
his research by introducing songs with
historical notes, such as explaining why a t
certain song may have been written or :
what was happening historically at the '
time the lyrics were penned. .
"I have the songs picked out," Watters /
said. "I found some very funny songs like
Arthur Murray Taught Me Dancing in a
Hurry.' I have grown to like him (Mercer) i I
lot."
Other songs Watters will perform include,
"One for My Baby"; "Moon River"; "Days ol('
Wine and Roses"; "In the Cool, Cool, Cool (l
the Evening"; "On the Atchison, Topeka and .
the Santa Fe"; "Tangerine"; "Skylark";
"Summer Wind"; "Something's Gotta Give";
"That Old Black Magic"; "Blues in the Night";
"Fools Rush In"; and 'Autumn Leaves." Watters said he will perform about 33 songs
for this year's show.
"What set him apart was his Southern background," Watters said of Mercer.
"The Southern blues essence, Even 'Moon River' and 'My Huckleberry Friend.' He
used words and phrases that no one else had in their arsenal."
Watters will include songs that Mercer wrote with others, such as Jerome Kern,
Harold Arlen and Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn. As this article was being
written, Watters was thinking of adding one other collaboration a song that
Warren wrote to music by Dick Hyman, the Oscar Award-winning composer-
pianist who lives in Venice.
"He heard this tune that Dick wrote," Watters said. "He called Dick and said that
he wanted to put a lyric to the melody and Dick said, 'Go ahead,' and then he
(Mercer) died and Dick had to do the last two lines of the song."
Mercer died in 1976 having written some 1,500 songs.

Background
Why Mercer?
"I sort of had it in the back of my mind because I usually do this show in
November, and his 100th birthday would have been about the time I do the show,"
Watters said.
Watters' show was moved because the symphony was having a celebration for
its new conductor, Ken Bowermeister, about the same time.
In past shows he has involved friends like Jim Magero, symphony board mem-
bers, local celebrities Vee Garry-Chulli, retired symphony conductor Wes
Schumacher and, for many years, his late brother Carl. Always part of the show is
his musical accompanist, pianist Jim Cox. This show will be strictly Watters and
Cox.
Always a vision of sartorial splendor, Watters is equally at home wearing
sequined caps and vests, fringed leather western wear or top hat and tails. In the
course of a typical Watters show, he might wear all of the above, changing cos-
tumes to suit the music.

Scrooge is a good guy
Each year at Christmas, Watters beguiles Venetians with his portrayal of
Ebenezer Scrooge in Venice Theatre's annual production of "A Christmas Carol."


Throughout the year, Watters sings in the choir at Venice Presbyterian Church.
Another project dear to Watters' heart is his "Song of Life" project, a tax-free
foundation that provides a network of entertainers to perform for people in need
of cheer in hospitals, nursing homes and hospice centers.
Whatever the project, Watters gives his all, utilizing his background as a teacher,
financial planner, fund raiser and volunteer.
On March 1, he performed an entirely different concert for the benefit of CROP
Walk (Communities Responding to Overcome Poverty), another pet cause.
"Venice is the number one donor to CROP Walk in Florida," Watters said. "And
it is 21st in the U.S. of more than 2,000 cities. Twenty-five percent of the money
raised stays right here to benefit the South County Food Pantry and Salvation
Army and others."

Concert beneficiary
Venice Symphony's ed-
ucation program, the benefi-
Sciary of Watters' annual con-
certs, is the symphony's key
outreach program. Specif-
ically geared to third-graders
in South Sarasota County
Schools, the program intro-
S duces orchestral instruments
and music to the students.
Members of the sym-
phony go into the schools
with their instruments and
talk about the symphony
and its music. Later, South
County third-graders are
bused to the North Port
Performing Arts Center for
a concert by the symphony.
d" Classroom visits and trans-
Sportation to the symphony
S. are both funded by the
S" outreach program.
,':l'.. Over the years Eric
Watters shows have gen-
erated nearly $200,000 for
the symphony.

Dinner and a show
"My Huckleberry Friend" will be performed one night only, March 6, at 8 p.m.
at the Church of the Nazarene, 1535 E. Venice Ave. Tickets are $25 per person and
may be purchased from the symphony office. Call 488-1010. Consider that in past
years, Watters has often performed more than one sold-out show and just one
performance is scheduled this year.
Combine dinner and the show. Enjoy a buffet dinner at The Plantation Golf &
Country Club, 500 Rockley Blvd., from 4:30 to 6:45 p.m., which allows time to get
to the 8 p.m. show. Dinner is $22.50 per person, including salad, choice of entree,
dessert, beverage, tax and tip. Reservations are suggested as seating is limited for
the buffet. Call 493-4223.

A photo caption in the

Venice Art Center, when she
is holding the exhibit at the
Venice Theatre's Mitzi

Gondolier regrets the error.
A golf outing to benefit

SHOULDER PAIN

SHOULDER PAIN


CARDIAC CLUB


DR. DAN BUSCH, DR. ERENE ROMANSKI
CHIROPRACTOR
If you've been suffering from pain in the
shoulder, you may be able to benefit from
treatment by your doctor of chiropractic.
One of the most common causes of shoulder
pain is bursitis or inflammation of the bursa,
These are small, soft tissue sacs that contain a
lubricating fluid which forms a cushion
between adjoining tissues in a joint structure
as well as between bones and muscles.
Among the causes of bursitis are injury
and interference with the nerve supply. When


this happens, the protective lubricant tends to
thicken and become gritty. This may cause
the joint to become swollen, stiff, and
painful.
In treating this condition your doctor of
chiropractic may manipulate the shoulder
muscles. He may also examine the
corresponding neurological levels of the
spine, such as the lower part of the neck and
upper part of the back, to correct any
misalignments that may be contributing to
the problem.

Garden students help Haitian victims


FROM GARDEN
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL


Garden Elementary School first-
grader Jack Mavis has won a national
art contest.
The contest, sponsored by CVS and
VSA arts, has an annual Call for Art for
a national tour, which begins at the
Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.
Jack's rendition of a colorful flamin-
go with accompanying decorations
won one of two spots reserved for
Florida art students.
Jack's art teacher, Joanna Davis-
Lanum, could not be more proud of the
perseverance Jack has shown at
Garden.
"Jack is a great artist, an even better
student and has a smile that will cer-
tainly brighten your day," she said. "He
epitomizes the phrase 'all kids can cre-
ate.' "
Please see ART, 10B

Two Venice women chosen for Leadership Sarasota Cardinal Mooney


Leadership project to enhance Crowley
Museum and Nature Center

BY AUDREY BLACKWELL
STAFF WRITER

Ann Roggero, with the State College of Florida's
Foundation, and Maryann Terry, development direc-
tor for South Sarasota County Habitat for Humanity,
are participating in Leadership Sarasota.
The annual leadership program offers participants
immersion and training in an aspect of the commu-
nity. The program is run by the Greater Sarasota
Chamber of Commerce.
The 2010 Leadership Sarasota class, made up of 30
community leaders from a variety of businesses and
walks of life, selected Crowley Museum and Nature
Center as its service project.
Crowley will undergo several enhancements that
will add to its lure as one of the top Old Florida desti-
nations for Southwest Florida families. The main
thrust of the project is to build a Children's Discovery
Path on the Crowley grounds.
"We are thrilled that our class selected the
Children's Discovery Path as its annual project," said
Diane Lawson, co-chair of this year's class. "The scope
of the project engages many talents of our class mem-
bers from construction and engineering to design
and marketing. When complete, the path will add yet
another distinct reason to visit Crowley Museum and
Nature Center."
The Children's Discovery Path will be a half-mile
path with five Discovery Stations where families and
children can stop and learn about animals, birds and
insects that are native or prevalent in Southwest
Florida. The Discovery Path planned stations include:
SEagle's Nest/Birds of Prey station: The station will
have a two-level platform deck and come equipped
with a viewing device for viewing an eagle's nest on an
adjacent property;


ARTfrom Page 8B


The art theme was State of the Art. Students had to
answer "What makes my state unique?" in their art-
work. Jack's answer was that "the state bird of Florida
is the mockingbird, but many people think it is the
flamingo. You see flamingos in people's yards and on
Florida souvenirs."
Because the United States is made up of many cul-
tures and environments, student artists had to
address how they fit into the community and what
makes where they live unique the landscape or the
people. They could look at a tradition passed on from
their family and what to say through their artwork.
They were asked to consider all the questions when
depicting their environment and to be creative and
share a glimpse into their world.
Two finalists were chosen from each of the 50
states and the District of Columbia. Each student's
artwork will be featured in an online gallery and con-
sidered for display in a national touring exhibition
that will debut in Washington, D.C., in June. The exhi-
bition will be on view during the month of June and
will feature one piece of artwork from every state and
the District of Columbia.
The 51 selected artists will be invited to an opening
reception in Washington, D.C.
This will include travel reimbursement for the
artist and one chaperone. While in Washington, these
young people will have a chance to join in the largest
celebration of the arts and disability in the world: the
2010 International VSA Arts Festival.
Thousands of visitors and participants from all
over the world will have the opportunity to view the
exhibition and browse it online.
All submissions to the call will be included within
the exhibition in an interactive kiosk display even if
they have not been selected for the touring show.

Bat station: A bat house will be the focus and will
include a blindfold walk guided by posts and rope;
Burrowing station: This station will highlight ani-

toise. There will be a tunnel activity for children to
crawl through;
Bobcat station: This station will spotlight the
Florida bobcat, partially through a low-lying rope
bridge built in a zigzag style.
Physical work on the project started Jan. 30 by the
2010 Leadership Sarasota class. Both the Crowley
Museum and the Chamber of Commerce are financ-
ing the project, which is set to open in the spring.
Museum
The Crowley Museum and Nature Center is an
education center. Instilled with Jasper Crowley's pas-
sion for preserving the history and environment of
rural SW Florida. The organization and its 190-acre
preserve has been host to southwest families for 34
years. Business, nature, historical and government
organizations have supported Crowley, providing the
opportunity to educate diverse interest groups on
their role as stewards of nature and rural history.
Leadership Sarasota
Leadership Sarasota County is part of a nationwide
network of programs that encourage community
stewardship and oversight. Sarasota County's pro-
gram includes community immersion and training,
and educating participants in how things work in the
community. Participants learn about the roles that
business, government, the arts and not-for-profit
institutions play in the county. Participants have
ongoing opportunities to make an impact in the com-
munity by learning where and how to get involved in
ongoing issues.

dinner and live auction.
This year's event even
included a choir of angels.
The cherubs, carrying politi-
cally correct battery-operat-
ed candles, formed a stair-
way to heaven.







These two
angels are
Michelle Guy,
left, and
Georgina
Spaders.
They helped
form the ..
stairway to
heaven.


Guests entered a celestial
YMCA for food and spirits
and a chance to let their
earthly bounty provide
opportunities for those in
need. Last year's event made
available $613,394 in scholar-
ships for 1,300 low-income
families in Venice and
Englewood.
Committee members who
offered opportunities for
everyone to gain gold stars
for heaven by donating to
the event were: Anne Dalton,
Stephania Deiter, Emelinda
Hagan, Debbie Campbell,
Karen Roberts, Sophia Fong,
Kathy Castellano, Aundria
Castleberry, Carol Deleon,
Mary Ann Fishman, Patti
Gallo, Debra Hammett,
Susan and Allison Macrae,
Jean Pickhardt, Barbara
Robinson, Michelle Ruane,
Victoria Stultz, Tiffany
Taylor and Joann Tufaro.
Let all of Venice proclaim
a huge thank-you for a job


well done.
'Something's
Gotta Give'
Eric Watters sings the
songs of Johnny Mercer
March 6 at the Church of
the Nazarene to benefit the
Venice Symphony music
camp.
The evening offers a
chance to enjoy songs such
as "Moon River" from one of
the most popular entertain-
ers in Venice.
The show begins at 8 p.m.
Tickets are $25 for open
seating. Tickets are available
at Venice Stationers or The
Paper Pad on West Venice
Avenue. Or, send a self-
addressed, stamped enve-
lope to Watters Show, PO.
Box 1561, Venice 34284, or
call 488-1010.
Ticket holders can enjoy a
buffet dinner for $17.95 at the
Plantation Golf & Country
Club that includes dessert


and coffee, tea or soda. For
reservations, call 493-4223.
Dinner is available from 4:30
to 6:45 p.m.
One of our best
The special person of this
week is Michelle Guy. This
terrific lady teaches gymnas-
tics at the YMCA. "I love my
job," she tells anyone who
will listen.
Each year at the YMCA
black-tie gala she goes
beyond her job description
and wears a costume to
bring a little more fun to the
event. This year she was the
tallest angel on the stairway
to heaven.
She is one of those people
who has a gift for bringing a
smile and some sunshine to
every situation.
Michelle Guy is one of the
YMCA instructors who make
Venice a great place to live.

Music rules this week
Sarasota Opera's winter season continues with its
final opera of the season, Verdi's "Giovanna
d'Arco" March 6 at the Opera House in Sarasota.
At precisely the same hour (8 p.m.) Eric Watters
takes the stage at the Venice Church of the Nazarene
for his 17th concert to benefit the Venice Symphony.
"Joan of Arc" continues in repertory for five additional
performances through March 20.
Watters' performance is one night only and for fans of
the symphony and/or Watters, this is a not-to-be missed
occasion.
His shows are not only entertaining but educational.
This year the subject is Johnny Mercer who had as
many hits as most any song writer and, with more than
1,500 songs, was more prolific than most.
The title of his show, "My Huckleberry Friend" is
named for one such hit. The show itself will include
many others, beautifully performed by Watters who has
become a walking encyclopedia of all things Mercer in
preparation for his show.
For tickets to the opera, call 941-366-8450, Ext. 1 or
visit www.sarasotaopera.org. For tickets to the Watters
show, call 941-480-1010.
You will not be disappointed with either choice.
Sunday, enjoy "Annie" at Venice Theatre, another gem
on the Cultural Coast. Call 941-488-1115 or visit
www.venicestage.com.

75th annual Florida Strawberry Festival


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
W which came first, the
strawberries or
the whipped
cream?
At the 75th annual *
Florida Strawberry Festival
in Plant City, no one cares
as long as there are plenty of
strawberries and lots of whipped
cream atop the shortcake. Although
the first festival was in 1930, this is the
75th year because there was a six-year
hiatus for World War II.
Despite the record cold spells, the
annual festival will go on as planned
March 4-14 and organizers say they
have more than enough berries for the
thousands expected to invade Plant City
to overdose on the fruit that inspired the


city's name. Strawberry
plants fill most of the
--fields along the road
leading into town.
SMore than 5,000
fields of berries
Surround Plant
City. As
growers
Shave
dealt
with cold
weather in the past,
they had to again this
year although for more
weeks. Hillsborough
County is one of the I
biggest agricultural produ .
ing counties in the United
States. Even several weeks of cold
weather was not going to change that.


Strawberry historians will
share their knowledge
with you, and, for those
who want more than a
shortcake or two, the
festival has everything
one would find at the
best fairs and
le-t rivals.
There are
plenty of
4 carnival rides, non-
S* stop entertainment,
agricultural, fine arts
and horticultural
Exhibits and even a
queen and court in the
Strand parade. Everyday, at
2 p.m., 4 pm., 6 p.m. and 8
p.m. Rosaire's Racing Pigs perform to
the delight of fairgoers.


Geared for people of all
ages, the festival has discount
Says for seniors, special
deals for midway rides and
strawberries anyway you
want them.
Online ticket orders are
available at www.flstrawber-
ryfestival.com or call 813-754-
9194 or 2194. Gates open daily
at 10 a.m. and close at 10:30 p.m.
The midway closes at midnight.
Take 1-75 north toward Tampa and exit
onto 1-4 East, toward Orlando. Exit at
Thonotosassa Road, Exit 19 State Road
566. Turn right on Thonotosassa Road and
follow to traffic light. At traffic light, continue
straight onto Lemon Street and follow to
four-way stop at Oak Street. Turn right on
Oak Street. Ticket office and festival
grounds are about two blocks on the left.


There's


an art to Venice this weekend


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
Known for both parades and festivals,
Venice will experience both Satur-
ay Sunday.
Both days, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., a
veritable parade of viewers will walk
between Harbor Drive and Business 41,
checking out the Ninth Annual Downtown
Venice Art Classic.
Presented by Howard Alan Events, the
art festival is a juried show, featuring a mix


of original art work created by 150 artists
from around the country. Although much
younger, this show is similar to the fall art
show that also is organized by Howard
Alan Events. The organizer estimates the
value of the work on display to be in
excess of $15 million.
Juried by a panel of judges, the artists
were selected from hundreds of appli-
cants. Artists are required to keep their
booths open and to remain on site for the
duration of the show. Media include


painting, sculpture, ceramics, glass, wood:::
jewelry, collage and mixed media.
The event is free. Many downtown
merchants will also be open that
day.
Howard Alan Events conducts
art and craft shows throughout the
United States, From Naples to
Aspen, Chicago and Beaver Creek.

Sanibel hosts 73rd shell fair


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
K known for its
seashells, it
is only
natural that
Sanibel Island
would play host
to an annual I
shell festival.
The 73rd
festival is set for
Thursday -
Saturday on the
island.
Headquarters is the
Sanibel Community House
at 2173 Periwinkle Way. For the
shells any stretch of the island's
famous beach will do. For years
Sanibel Beach has been considered
the best shelling beach in the United
States and one of the best in the
world. These days, if you take a
shell from the beach, be sure it is
not a live shell. Otherwise, during
the festival, serious sellers will be
there in droves, vying for prizes
while everyone else enjoys the sun,
the sand and the festival atmos-
phere, which includes demonstra-
tions, displays, crafts, food and
entertainment all three days. Learn

Cassatt show

drawing viewers to the

Boca Raton Museum of Art


PHOTO COURTESY OFADELSON GALLERIES, NEWYORK
Mary Cassatt (American, 1844-1926), "By the Pond:' 1896, drypoint and aquatint,
plate 13 x 16 7/8 inches, sheet 17 1/2 x 20 3/8 inches.


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
M A ary Cassatt;
1\ /IWorks on
I E I Paper" has
been drawing viewers
to the Boca Raton
Museum of Art since its
opening in late January.
Organized by New
York's Adelson Galleries,
the Cassett exhibition
meshes well with the museum's
permanent collection which is strong on
photography, including a good number
of works shot during Cassatt's era
(1844-1926).
The impressionist's prints featured in
this showing, fit nicely with the muse-
um's permanent collection, especially
its fine collection of photos, many by
photographers of the same era as
Cassatt. As the museum's photo
collection includes works by prominent
women photographers, the Cassatt
works in this exhibition include the
place of women in the world in her era.
The current show includes 40 works
from early drawings to several types of
prints, including some of the counter-
proofs. which are said to have captured
her imagination in her later years.


"Mary Cassatt: Works on
Paper presents a collection of
prints and drawings which
were central to her artistic
legacy," said George S.
S Bolge, Executive Director
I of the museum in a
release.
SThe exhibition also
includes aquatints,
S monotints and etchings.
Cassatt's fascination with
advances in printing may have
inspired much of her work. The rare
counterproofs are but one example of
the way printing advancements
possibly influenced her drawing style.
An exhibition catalog includes an
essay by Barbara Stern Shapiro,
curator emeritus, Museum of Fine Arts,
Boston and a chronology by Pamela A.
Ivinski.
Located at 501 Plaza Real, inn
Mizner Park, Boca Raton, the Boca
Raton Museum of Art is open Tuesday,
Thursday and Friday 10 a.m-5 p.m.;
Wednesday until 9 p.m. and Saturday
and Sunday noon-5 p.m. Admission is
$14 for adults, $12 for seniors (65 and
older) and $6 for students. For informa-

'The King an

BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
Rogers and Hammerstein musicals
are in a class by themselves. One
of the best is "The King and I,"
which recently opened at the Broadway
Palm Dinner Theatre in Fort Myers,
where it plays through April 10.
This is a big production with big
dancing, big wonderful voices, charming
children, stunning sets and a subtle love
story that can bring tears.


V


d I' is grand

Galloway Stevens portrays the King of
Siam, with Amanda Morgan as Anna
Leonowens, the widowed teacher he
has brought from England to educate
his his many children from his many
wives. They have good chemistry on
stage and fine voices too.
There is a depth of vocal talent that
permeates this cast. YoonJeong Seong
as Tuptim, Ya Han Chang as Lady
Thiang and Jose Sampedro as Lun Tha
are three more examples. The two


experience \

women should be in opera, so strong
and stunning are their voices.
Director Brian Enzman managed to
find an entire cast filled with fine voices,
dancing feet and everything else
needed to put on a first-rate Broadway
show. Amy Marie McCleary's choreogra-
phy and John P. White's costumes made
the King and Anna's polka a particularly
stunning scene in a show filled with
such scenes. Loren Strickland's musical
direction, Kristian D. Perry's sets an


RLiS-
sell A.
Thompson's
lighting were the icing on the cake of an
extraordinary production.
Tickets range from $27-$53 per
person. The Broadway Palm Dinner
Theatre is at 1380 Colonial Blvd., Fort
Myers. Use exit 136 from Interstate 75.

'Machinal' opens in Cook


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
Continuing the presentations of
the FSU/Asolo Conservatory for
Actor Training is "Machinal"
which opened March 2 in the Cook
Theatre within the FSU Center
for the Performing Arl- II
will play there through
March 21.

Clark, Will Little,

three-year training program from more
than 1,200 applicants. Next year they

Ii.e skills to keep them

'Li'I Abner' opens at Apple


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
The more live theater one sees along
the Cultural Coast the more one
appreciates the depth of talent.
Just one example is Bob Trisolini who,
despite preparing for the role of Pappy
Yokum in "Li'l Abner" at the Golden Apple
Dinner Theatre Feb. 24-April 4, stepped
into a very different role as a last-minute
replacement in "Lend Me a Tenor" for a
Feb. 11-21 run at The Players in Sarasota.
It helped that he has years of profes-
sional experience as an actor, director and
choreographer yet he still had just three
days between the closing of one show and
the opening of the other. Actually, because
of dress rehearsals for "Abner," it was
more like no days to switch from the role
of Saunders, the elegant opera company
manager, to the role of corncob-pipe
smoking Pappy Yokum.
He was perfect and perfectly
delightful in "Tenor."
In the former show he was directed by
the Apple's longtime star, Roberta


MacDonald. In his current role he is being
directed by MacDonald's husband and
Apple co-owner, Robert Ennis Turoff.
He had talented players with him on
stage at The Players and has an equally
talented company on stage at the Apple.
Based upon the Al Capp comic strip,
"Abner" takes place in Dogpatch,
home of the annual Sadie Hawkins Day
Race, in which Daisy Mae tries to snare
Li'l Abner despite his seeming lack of
interest in girls, even girls as pretty as
Daisy Mae. Add some political satire and
foot-stomping tunes and expect some
old-fashioned fun. Sets are by Michael
Newton-Brown, costumes by Dee
Richards and choreography by
DeWayne Barrett. John Visser is the
musical director.
Tickets, including buffet lunch or dinner,
depending on showtime, are $41-$43 per
person.
The Golden Apple Dinner Theatre is at
25 N. Pineapple Ave. Visit

Alice in Wonderland (PG)
Tim Burton takes a stab at
Lewis Carroll's timeless tale of
a young girl (Mia Wasikowska) ".
lost within a fantasyland with -
this 3-D production of Alice in
Wonderland. The Lion
King's Linda Woolverton
provides the script, with Hollywood
heavyweights Richard Zanuck and
Joe Roth heading up the production
team. Burton veteran collaborator
Johnny Depp co-stars as The Mad
Hatter in the Walt Disney Productions
picture. Ninteen-year-old Alice returns
to the magical world from her child-
hood adventure, where she reunites
with her old friends and learns of her
true destiny: to end the Red Queen's
reign of terror.

Alvin and the Chipmunks:
The Squeakquel (G) B
Now in the care of Dave Seville's
nephew (Zachary Levi), Alvin, Simon
and Theodore take a break from pop-
music stardom and return to school.
Almost immediately, the tiny tune-
smiths are given the giant task of
saving their school's music program
by winning a battle of the band's
contest. Though the boys think
winning the contest will be easy,
romantic and musical sparks fly when
they meet Brittany, Eleanor and
Jeannette also known as The
Chipettes.

Avatar (PG-13) A-
Avatar takes us to a spectacular
world beyond imagination, where a
reluctant hero embarks on an epic
adventure, ultimately fighting to save
the alien world he has learned to call
home. James Cameron, the Oscar-
winning director of "Titanic," first
conceived the film 15 years ago,
when the means to realize his vision
did not exist yet. Now, after four years
of production, AVATAR, a live action
film with a new generation of special
effects, delivers a fully immersive
cinematic experience of a new kind,
where the revolutionary technology
invented to make the film disappears
into the emotion of the
characters and the
sweep of the
story. Area


T


The Book of Eli (R) A-
In the not-too-distant future, across

and Paul is his "partner-against-
crime" whose preoccupation with his
wife's alleged infidelity makes it hard
for him to keep his eye on the ball.

The Crazies (R) B-
David Dutten (Timothy Olyphant) is
sheriff of Ogden Marsh, a picture-
perfect American town with happy,
law-abiding citizens. But one night,
one of them comes to a school
baseball game with a loaded shot-
gun, ready to kill. Another man burns
down his own house...after locking
his wife and young son in a closet
inside. Within days, the town has
transformed into a sickening asylum;
people who days ago lived quiet,
unremarkable lives have now become
depraved, blood-thirsty killers, hiding
in the darkness with guns and knives.
Sheriff Dutten tries to make sense of
what's happening as the horrific,
nonsensical violence escalates.
Something is infecting the citizens of
Ogden Marsh...with insanity.
Now complete
anarchy

heaters reigns
as


one by one the townsfolk succumb to
an unknown toxin and turn sadistical-
ly violent. In an effort to keep the
madness contained, the government
uses deadly force to close off all
access and won't let anyone in or out
- even those uninfected.

Percy and his friends must embark
on a cross-country adventure to catch
the true thief, save Percy's family, and
unravel a mystery more powerful than
the gods themselves.

Sherlock Holmes (PG-13) B
In a dynamic new portrayal of
Arthur Conan Doyle's most famous
characters, Sherlock Holmes and his
stalwart partner Watson embark on
their latest challenge. Revealing
fighting skills as lethal as his leg-
endary intellect, Holmes battles as
never before to bring down a new
nemesis and unravel a deadly plot
that could destroy the country.

Shutter Island (R) A-
The project centers on a U.S.
marshal (Mark Ruffalo) who along with
his new partner (Leonardo DiCaprio)
travels to a Massachusetts island to
investigate the disappearance of a
patient from a hospital for the criminal-
ly insane. During their inquiry, the two
encounter a web of deceit, experience
a hurricane and become involved in a
deadly inmate riot that leaves them
trapped on the island.


From Paris With Love (R) B Up in the Air (R) B+


A low-ranking intelligence operative
(Jonathan Rhys Meyers) working in
the office of the U.S. Ambassador in

who's been sent to Paris to stop a
terrorist attack.


Percy Jackson & the
Olympians (PG) B-
Trouble-prone teen Percy Jackson
is about to be kicked out school -
but that's the least of his problems.

Greek mythology texts and into his
life and they're not happy. Zeus'
lightning bolt has been stolen, and
Percy is the prime suspect. Now,


"Up in the Air" starring George
Clooney as Ryan Bingham, a corpo-
rate downsizing expert whose cher-
ished life on the road is threatened

ten million frequent flyer miles and
just after he's met the frequent-
traveler woman of his dreams.

The Wolfman (R) C
Though absent from his ancestral
home of Blackmoor for many years,
aristocrat Lawrence Talbot (Benicio
Del Toro) returns to find his missing
brother at the request of the latter's
fiancee, Gwen (Emily Blunt). He
learns that a creature has links to an
ancient curse turning people into
werewolves when the moon is full. To
save the village and protect Gwen, he
must slay the bloodthirsty beast, but
he contends with a horrifying family
legacy.

That's what sets Compadre's apart from
the rest. The Mexican restaurant at 498
W. Dearborn St. in Englewood has won
the Englewood Sun's award for best
Mexican restaurant every full year it's
been open.
Javier and Wendy Nunez opened
Compadre's in December 2004and filled
the void of a good Mexican restaurant in
town that doesn't have "bell" in its name.
The Nunez's didn't have any exotic
reasoning behind opening Compadre's.
"We wanted our own business, basical-
ly," said Wendy Nunez. "There really wasn't
anything like this in Englewood."


The word got out quickly and the awards
soon followed. They didn't really need
comedy nights or anything special and
they still don't. The food speaks for itself.
The atmosphere is what you would
expect, dimly lit with dark red walls with
Mexican music in the background. The
size is deceptive, as there are many tables
in the back.
For those who prefer eating in the
sunlight, there are several tables outside.
There's no awning, so hope for a sunny day.
But it's the food people come for, and it's
very good and reasonably priced.
"We have a special for $7.45 where
people pick what they like," Nunez said.
"Some like it spicy, some don't."
The special offers chimichangas, sour
cream chicken, enchiladas or spinach,
green tomatillo, tamales, tacos, tostadas
and chicken fajitas.


SUN PHOTOS BY CHUCK BALLARO
People dine at Compadre's for lunch. Most of their offerings are in the $8-$12 range.


The fajitas and burritos sell well, Nunez
said, and when you add the rice and
beans you get a lot of food for the
money.
They have their signature dishes such
as the Tacos Al Carbon, two soft flour
tortillas filled with marinated charbroiled
steak strips or chicken and topped with
grilled onions, bell peppers and "pico de
gallo," a mixture of onions, chili peppers
and tomatoes.
For $14.95, you can also try the
Compadre Sampler; chicken fajitas,
grilled quesadillas, palitos, guacamole,
sour cream and cheese dip.
That is among the more expensive
offerings. Many of their dishes are in the
$8 to $12 range. They include beef and


fish tacos, care asada, and many
kinds of chicken dishes.
Finish it off with some real Mexican
desserts such as flan, xango, which is
cheesecake wrapped in a tortilla with
raspberry sauce, and fried ice cream,
which comes in a tortilla.
As for the success, Nunez attributes it
to her husband.
"He worked in the restaurant business
for so long," Nunez said. "He's taken the
best out of all the places he's worked. It's
just a mix of everything and all the
experience he's had."
Compadre's is open Sunday- Thursday
from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday and
Saturday until 9 during season. For more
information, call 475-4010.

Eric Watters is back in the groove


BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR
V enice song and dance man Eric
Watters is back in the groove,
preparing for his 17th show to
benefit the Venice Symphony's educa-
tion outreach program,
Symphony in the
Schools. Aimed at
third graders, the .
program introduces
the students to the
instruments and
music associated
with a symphony
orchestra.
This year, Watters'
theme is the music of
Johnny Mercer and there
will be one show only at 8
p.m., Saturday.
Watters has been researching Mercer
and his music for months while prepar-
ing the song and dance routines that
have entertained thousands of Venetian
residents and visitors the past 18 years.
Mercer, who was born, raised and is
now buried in Savannah, wrote the lyrics
to more than 1,500 songs. His music
was especially popular in the 1930s,


1940s and 1950s and included such hits
as "Moon River," "Days of Wine and
Roses," "In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the
Evening" and "That Old Black Magic."
Past shows have included guest
appearances by symphony board
members and/or other singers and
dancers.
This year, the bonus is the
: chance to enjoy a buffet dinner at
The Plantation, 500 Rockley
Blvd. from 4:30 to 6:45 p.m.,
which allows time to get to the 8
p.m. show at the Venice Church
of the Nazarene, 1535 E. Venice
Ave., where the symphony
performs most of its concerts
during the year. Dinner is $22.50 per
person, including salad, choice of
entree, dessert, beverage, tax and tip.
Reservations are suggested as seating is
limited for the buffet. Call 941-493-4223.
Tickets to the performance at the
church are $25 per person and may be
purchased from the symphony office.
Call 941-488-1010. Consider that in past
years, Watters has often performed
more than one sold-out show and
that just one performance is
scheduled this year.

'Li


Abner' revives


Sadie Hawkins Day


BY AUDREY BLACKWELL
STAFF WRITER
Coming in out of the cold of winter,
audience members warmed with
laughter at the antics of Daisy
Mae chasing Li'l Abner at the Golden
Apple Dinner Theatre Feb. 26.
The scene was part of the fun and
games conjured up long ago by car-
toonist Al Capp when he created Sadie
Hawkins Day in his Li'l Abner comic
strip that ran from 1934 to 1977.
On that day, Daisy Mae (Heather
Kopp) and the women of Dogpatch,
U.S.A., chase the man they want to
marry. For Daisy Mae, that man is Abner
Yokum (Matthew C. Scott), and she
does get her man.
The play, comprising a robust cast of
27, depicts humanity at its core when
the women chase the men to seal their
love. They take to the aisles of the
theatre carrying items with which to
snare their loved one oversized bats
and fish nets hollering all the way in
skimpy country duds.
During the play, which is loaded with
political satire often fitting today's world,
the audience meets General Bullmoose
(Robert Ennis Turoff), Earthquake
McGoon (Ryan Fitts), Dr. Ramona T
Finsdale (Roberta MacDonald), Mammy


Yocum (Ellie Pattison) and Pappy Yokum
(Bob Trisolini) and others.
The audience also learns about
Confederate General Jubilation T
Cornpone from Dogpatchers singing
about him in front of his statue in the
park. In the end, a letter from President
Abraham Lincoln, found under the
deceased general's statue, saves the
town from becoming a nuclear testing
site.
Robert Ennis Turoff produced the
musical through Coastal theatre
Productions Inc. John Visser is musical
director, costumes are by Dee Richards,
choreography is by Dewayne Barrett,
and set and light design is by Michael
Newton-Brown.
The musical runs through April 4.
Tickets are $41-$43 each, including
lunch or dinner. Tuesday through
Saturday dinner starts at 6 p.m.,
followed by the show at 8 p.m. On
Saturday, lunch is served at noon,
followed by the show at 1:30 p.m. On
Sunday, dinner starts at 4 p.m.,
followed by a show at 6 p.m.
The theatre is located at
25 N. Pineapple Ave., Sarasota.
