Thursday, November 16, 2006 Serving the communities south of Lake Okeechobee (4 Thursday, November 16, 2006 Serving the communities south of Lake Okeechobee Water shortage order issued for lake area WEST PALM BEACH The Governing Board of the South Florida Water Management Dis- trict (SFWMD) declared a mandatory water shortage order for the Lake Okeechobee Service Area (LOSA), which comprises the Everglades Agri- cultural Area, and portions of Hendry, Glades, Lee, Okee- chobee, Palm Beach and Martin Counties. Classified as a Phase 1 or moderate water shortage decla- ration, the order is to become effective Friday, Nov. 17. The order will predominantly impact agricultural industrial and com- mercial water users as well as public water supply utilities around the Lake; withdrawals from the Caloosahatchee River; and a relatively small number of residential users whose water source is Lake Okeechobee or any of the surface water canals recharged by the Lake. Ground- water sources are not restricted by this order, and users are allowed to utilize groundwater in accordance with their per- mits. Agricultural water users in these areas are required to reduce their consumption of sur- face water 'by 15 percent. These users will be notified personally of the specific nature of restric- tions pertaining to this order and are encouraged to voluntarily exercise additional water con- servation measures as practica- ble. Residential water users in the LOSA will be required to limit "The District is working diligently to balance the current water supply with the needs of its resi- dents and agricultural users." Carol Ann Wehle outdoor irrigation times to three days per week and four hours per day. Residents with odd home addresses will be allowed to water between the hours of 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. EST on Mon- days, Wednesdays and Satur- days, while residents with even home addresses will be allowed to water between the hours of 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. EST on Tues- days, Thursdays and Sundays. No domestic water use for out- door irrigation will be allowed on Friday. Daily, lawn irrigation uses 50 percent or more of available drinking water, said Bruce Adams, District water conserva- tion officer. It's an astonishing number given that even in Flori- da's dry season; lawns don't need to be watered until they begin to \\ilt In addition, lawns are more likely to survi% e the dry season if they have been condi- tioned to live without excess watering. For a more drought-tolerant lawn, don't water before, during or after rain. Water only when the lawn begins to wilt Water the lawn before sunrise so less water evaporates. Keep lawn mower blades sharp, but cut the grass on the highest setting Anyone who doesn't have to maintain a lawn can help con- serve water by making simple changes at home. A short show- er using an ultra low flow show- erhead can use one half the water of the average 40-gallon bath, Adams said. Less water is wasted when dishwashers and washing machines are run with full loads. Thousands of gallons of water a year can be saved just by turning off the water when brushing your teeth. In addition, residential users will be asked to wash their vehi- cles within these specific times and also are expected to observe normal water conservation prac- tices within the home. The use of water for firefighting, safety, sanitation, health, medical and other essential purposes will not be restricted "The District is working dili- gently to balance the current water supply with the needs of its residents and agricultural users," said Carol Ann Wehle, executive director at the SFWMD. "Water conservation is an important endeavor year- round; and now, the concerted effort of all water users across the District will be required to see us through this dry season without the need for further restrictions." At present, the water level of Lake Okeechobee, a bellwether measurement of the District's water supply, is more than 3.5 feet or 22 percent below its historical average for this time of year. On parallel, rainfall through the first 10 months of 2006 was among the lowest on record at only 37.15 inches District-wide - approximately 79 percent of the historical average leaving many areas of the District in 1-in- 25-year dry spells. "Over the past three years Floridians have experienced first hand how weather conditions in South Florida can vastly differ from year to year," said Malcolm "Bubba" Wade, Jr., Governing Board member of the south Florida Water Management Dis- trict. "W\ must adapt our habits accordingly and during this dry period i encourage all residents to do their part in conserving water. A fe\\ simple steps, mulii- plied b\ a million residents, can produce significant \'atlr sa\- ings." The South Florida Water Man- agement District continues to monitor water levels througliout the District daily and is proactive- ly planning in the e\ent any addi- tional water shortages must be declared. For additional informarn,licn, area residents are encouraged tu, call the SFWMD's toll-tree Walti Conservation Hotline at 1-800- 662-8876 or contact their re.Qion- al SFWMD service center Help- ful water consei a tion tips are available at \s11w1.sfuTmd.gov clinser i e Water shortage sparks special meetings ISave money on your favorite grocery items.

Florida Power & Light Company announced Monday that the list of supporters is growing for a new, advanced-technology coal power plant project in Glades" County. At least five different groups including government agencies and economic development groups have passed resolutions this fall declaring formal support of the FPL Glades Power Park project. Groups that have passed resolutions include: the Moore Haven City Council, the Glades County Commission, the Glades County Economic Development Council, the School Board of Glades County and Florida's Heartland Rural Economic Development Initiative. Glades County leaders have voiced a desire to pursue major economic development in the area. Once in operation, the FPL Glades Power Park project is expected to contribute more than $21 million in property taxes each year in Glades Coun- ty. The project's related trans-, mission and substation facilities will contribute several million dollars in property taxes every year to Hendry County. Con- struction of the power plant will employ an average of 1,600 workers annually for five years. The completed plant will employ a permanent, full-time staff of 180, including technical, managerial and administrative jobs. The Moore Haven City Coun- cil, the Glades County Commis- sion and the other supporters recognize the FPL Glades Power Park could bring significant eco- nomic benefits to Glades and Hendry counties. "With this hew power plant, FPL will work in partnership with the local communities to create opportunities for this region and we appreciate each of these organizations' endorse- ment of the FPL Glades Power Park," said Area External Affairs Manager Grover Whidden. "In addition to new jobs, the pro- ject's associated new property taxes will greatly benefit the local schools and other commu- nity services. These groups rec- ognize FPL's commitment to the residents of Glades and Hendry counties." Besides the obvious econom- ic benefits, the local leaders have acknowledged the need to diver- sify Florida's power generation. An advanced-technology coal plant will help ease Florida's dependence on natural gas, which has experienced signifi- cant price increases in the past several years. The proposed FPL Glades Power Park will include a two- unit, 1,960-megawatt coal power plant capable of serving 650,000 homes. As part of FPL's focus on protecting the environ- ment, the plant will include state-of-the-art emission con- trols to protect air quality in the region.

Letters to the Editor Polling place disgraceful While people are winding down from the election frenzy, I am still reacting to the fact that my right to vote was denigrated in Glades County. When I think of the privilege I have to vote in this country and how grateful I am to have this right as a citizen of the United States, and that men and women are fighting to preserve that right around the world right now, it infuriated me to go to my polling site at the VFW in Glades County Nov. 7 and find no lights in the building and the supervisor of elections using the excuse of the hurricane of one year ago to jus- tify her neglect in making sure the facility was in the best possi- ble condition for us to do our proud duty to vote in. There were a couple of small lights in the corners pointing toward the ceiling which was completely torn up as was the rest of the room in disarray. It was disgraceful. I took my ballot and walked around the room trying to find enough light to fill out the ballot and found it too hard to see so I proceeded to go near the exit door where I had to stand up and fill in the dots with my pencil in the hallway. I was appalled and com- plained but only got excuses and attitude. The lack of regard and respect for this most sacred right we have is unacceptable. Holly Whidden has failed miserably at her job, and I will vote to see her out next term. I went to the office of the supervisor of elections and spoke with Holly Whidden before I went to vote to find out why no sample ballot was sent to people and why the newspa- per didn't even publish the can- didates or list the amendments so we could look them over before voting.' Her response was that she did everything herself and didn't have help. I .responded that I own a business and did every- thing myself, and that prioritiz- ing was critical. I think that lights in the polling room and a sample bal- lot posted in the paper or sent to homes are certainly priorities. There is one election a year. How bad are your priorities if you can't get proper lighting on at the polling facilities and a sample ballot available to the county? I don't give my clients excuses. I just do what I'm paid to do. I expect the same from my public officials, especially one that is in the highest paid office in the county. This is why term limits are the best option for public offices, in my opinion. Getting lights on and sending out sample ballots should not be sluffed off as an inconvenience and excuses dished out to appease.. I discussed it with Bill O'Reilly on his radio show the next day and his words echoed my own - "Unacceptable." I took his advice and reported this to the highest officials in the state. But it's up to us to vote this irresponsible public official out. My right and privilege to vote was denigrated this Nov. 7. While we were busy considering who we wanted to vote into office, someone who has been voted in consecutively year after year has let us down. What did we learn from this election? That no one is untouchable. The Republicans found out they are vulnerable. No one should make the mistake that our voice does not matter. This' election proved the power of every single vote. I demand respect and honor for my right to vote in this great country. And come next election I will exercise my right to support a new supervisor of elections for Glades County that takes my right to vote seriously and who. has respect for our privilege to, have a voice in this greatest land on earth. Danise Rosak Moore Haven Editor's note: During the month before the election, the Glades County Democrat pub- lished a three-part series of arti- cles explaining the proposed Constitutional Amendments. Make an Informed choice Two letters to the editor in recent issues have strongly advo- cated against the proposal to build a power plant in Glades County. Also a news item report- ed that a local environmental group had voted to oppose this planned development. I take issue with the basic premise of opposing development of infra structure, needed to sustain our current society. Electricity under- lies the most basic form of ener- gy used to address the require- ments of modern life: refrigeration, computers and tel- evision as well as heating, cool- ing and lighting our way at night cannot be conceived readily by other means. Even if we were to radically alter the transportation sector, the one blamed most for negatively impacting our envi- ronment by using gasoline & diesel fuel burned in cars & trucks, to environmentally neu- tral hydrogen,electricity would still need to be used to produce it! Electricity is at the heart of our modernity. Harris Friedman cites numer- ous factors as reasons to oppose the building of the power plant. He relates that the economic benefits are not impressive although I see no validity in the items he cites: that the workers qualifying for higher paying jobs would likely live outside the county; that more workers earn- ing lower pay would benefit; tax revenue during construction would not be boosted etc. Sales taxes alone would show a very significant climb and it seems counter intuitive that workers would elect to drive great dis- tances over the five year long construction period. However, my argument is not with the specifics of the opposition Dr. Friedman reports, even if he cites the problem %with mercury. Mer- cury was a problem in the 1960s in Michigan where the Dbw Chemical Corp managed to poi- son Lake, Huron to such an extent that fish taken from it caused illness. Meicury remains a problem now and atmospheric mercury is at a higher level in the southeast then anywhere in the continental United States! But it is not poisoning the fish in Lake Okeechobee uniquely, it also poisons the lettuce and toma- toes in his back yard. The prob- lem with fish is that "food chain concentrating" is at work and my personal approach in dealing with this has been to avoid eat- ing fish altogether for the.last 20 years! I am writing this letter to offer a better approach (as I see it) to deal with problems caused by our use of technologies: person- al responsibility and personal choice making which can affect the preserving of our environ- ment and prevent it's degrada- tion. I advocate a lifestyle where an individual makes an informed choice, every time an action which impacts our envi- ronment is taken. For example, every time I travel, I consider whether that travel could be done by walking, using a bicycle, by car or by train. I consider the amount of fossil fuel used for travel and where I use a car I use one that uses the smallest amount of fuel. Whenever I use electricity I consider the means available to use the smallest amount possible, turn of lights and TV when not in use, have the thermostat set at 82deg etc. When I visit the Glades County Courthouse and notice how cool the building is kept, I call my county commissioner and ask him to suggest changes to the building manager so as to save some electricity use! When mercury poisoning becomes worse I pay attention to our gov- ernment structure and see that under Republican dominance of congress the Environmental Pro- tection Agency becomes far less effective, so I vote Democratic It is through our o\wn individ- ual awareness of how society functions, how society is struc- tured that we can make a differ- ence by individually choosing the right thing. Electricity is needed, and more of it in the near future because of the rapid- ly growing population in South Florida. Only by each and all of us committing to use less of it will we be able to control the negative effects of producing it. We really don't have many alter- natives: nuclear power is still too dangerous as far as the spent fuel problem is concerned, fusion technology will not mature for another 25-50 years, other hydrocarbon fuels (natural gas, oil etc.) have supply prob- lems and will be exhausted soon and it politically impossible to make use of available "alterna- tive energy sources". if wte could muster the political power we would be building a windmill farm or a solar array: park or we would have US Sugar produce ethanol from the sugar cane grown all around us. \Vouldn't that be great. clean fuel flor the new power park! Therefore, opposition with weak or futile argumentation cannot improve society, advoca- cy by example and education will be far more effec- tive.

Seminoles to build a new charter school BRIGHTON SEMINOLE RESERVATION The Seminole Tribe of Florida and the School Board of Glades County, Florida have approved the only charter school in the State of Florida to foster the development and reten- tion of the Seminole Creek culture and language. Pemayetv Ema- hakv or "Our Way School" will open August 2007 in newly con- structed facilities on the Brighton Seminole Reservation in Glades County. Ground breaking for the new charter school will take place at 11 a.m. Friday, Nov. 17, adjacent to the Rodeo Grounds located on the Brighton Seminole Reseiva- tion (off CR 721 in Glades Coun- ty). Pemayetv Emahakv will con- sist of four educational buildings surrounding a courtyard and out- door learning area. The new char- ter school facility will include classrooms, cultural learning rooms, media center and admin- istrative offices. Pemayetv Emahakv is designed as a partial immersion language school. Traditional core content subjects %%ill be taught in English but some content includ- ing history, art. music, etc. will be taught using the Creek language. Because Creek is a spoken lan- guage, the only way to transfer the language from generation to generation is through oral context and instruction Therefore. Pemayetv Emahakv. "Our Way School" will become a critically important center for the Seminole Tribe of Florida as it devotes sub- stantial resources to maintain its language and culture for future generations. During its deliberation and subsequent unanimous board approval, Glades County School Board Chairman Mike Piessley stated the School Distiict is pleased that its lust experience with a chatter school has been with an applicant whose mission is critically important to the con- tinuation of the Seminole Tribe's culture and language. Glades Superintendent, WVayne Aldrich states "I am really excited about being involved with the very first charter school that combines the wonderful Seminole Creek lan- guage and culture with a tradi- tional academic curriculum.

There is no better way to keep the Seminole's rich and powerful cul- ture and language alive than through the proposed immersion program which \'ill include direct instruction and meaningful activi- ties in the everyday. curriculum. I hope that other Native American communities will follow the lead that has been set forth by the Seminole Tribe at the Brighton Reservation." Andrew Bowers, Tribal Coun- cil Representative tor the Brighton Seminole Indian Reservation, home of the new charter school, supports the school and its con- cept. "Pemayetv Emahakv will enable reservation residents and area tribal members to take advantage of the unique combi- nation of traditional public educa- tion based on State Standards plus a curriculum supporting the teaching of the Seminole's Creek language and culture," he stated. Mike Strader, President of Charter School Associates, Inc., a consultant to the Seminole Tribe, states that Pema.et\ Emahakx will include state-of-the-art tech- nology plus an elegant and effi- cient building design to promote cultural identitN and learning. Louise Gopher, the Seminole's Director of Education, tells inter- ested parents that the school's mission is to offer a performance- based system of teaching and learning in a safe and nurturing environment that celebrates the unique history, culture and lan- guage of the Seminole people. Mitchell Cypress, Chairman of the Seminole Tribal Council, believes that the successful future of any great people is directly dependent upon the care, nurtur- ing and training of that people's children. He believes Pemavetv Emahakv will ensure that Semi- nole cultural traditions and lan- guage are properly\ transmitted across generations and commu- nities.

November 16. 2006 Serving the communities south of Lake Okeechobee --- ---- --- CHS Tigers maul Mustangs in semifinals By Jeff Barwick The Clewiston High School Tigers entered the Class 2A regional semifinals against the Mulberry Mustangs as over- whelming favorites and played true to form as they prevailed in a lopsided 56-12 game at Cane Field. Next up for the Tigers will be a road trip to take on Class 2A-5 champion Tampa Catholic (10-1 on the season) and 31-6 winners last Friday over West Palm Beach Cardinal Newman. "The-story on this night ,.as the Tiger defense, which contin- ued its domination of opponents as they shut down the Mustangs and yielded only 68 yards total offense in the first half. They repeatedly turned the ball over to their offense deep in Mustang territory. The Tigers got five first half offensive touchdowns while only generating 113 yards of total offense The longest scor- ing drive for the Tigers was a mere 4 plays and 42 yards Two of the scoring drives were only two plays and another two only one play. On 7 offen- sive scores, the Tigers only used a total of 19 snaps As a result the overall statistics for the Larnem are misleading and would point *to a much closer battle. While b\ far Clevtrton's l:, est total offense output for the season, .the scoreboard still showed 56 points and that's \hlat really counted The first Tiger scnle came ona a 5-Yard saving pass from quai- terback Jared Comrnbass to %%de out John Melton:n who snaked1 into the corner of the end zone A tevo minutes later, the Ticer - were back and this time lailbark Collin Ricketts toted the ball tor the final t\o Vaids. The Iirial Tiger touchdown orl the opening qua ter came on a tive-iard dash up the middle b\ Dar ris Hughes.. Earl\ in the second period, John Melton scooped up anr e',a- sive Mustang punt at the Tiger 30 and wig- "gled free firm tight coverage and then swept down the home sideline for an el'-ctit iirng 70- yard punt return It was.Melton's third punt return for a tou -li- down this season. Next up, Combass decided to air the ball out and found fliankil Oin-ii Smniir, wide open 'n'ri a corner route and the throv w\vas perfect. Da:ris Hughes got the final first half score on a 15 yard jaunt. At the outset of the second .half, rlulberr, requested a run- ning clock. Clewiston added their two final scores in the third period on a two-yard plunge by Collin Ricketts and a nifty piece of running by tailback Reggie Gray for a 19-yard touchdown. The Tigers played without Jamal Hubert, their leading rusher on the season, who was removed from the squad at the start of the week for a team poli- cy violation. Tiger place-kicker \'ViII Davis converted each of his 8 attempts and is now a perfect 50 for 50 on the season. The Tiger defense, which only allowed 64 points in the regular season, was in top form. And, characteristic of the entire season it was a true team effort with statistics evenly spread. Senior defensive end Johnny Jones had seven solo tackles and three running sacks followed by defensive end Delvin Hughes who had four tackles, three assists and a run- ning sack. Clewiston Coach Larry Antonacci freely substituted from late in the second quarter and the entire second half was played under a running clock. Virtually every Tiger suited up for the game, which included seven moved up from the junior varsity, got some playing time. "I'm really proud of these kids," said Antonacci.

They were outstanding in giving us a short field on offense all night." Tailback Darris Hughes was happy and relieved after the con- test. "I had some big shoes to fill tonight but Coach Antonacci just told me to stay focused and hold on to the ball. The guys up front blocked and I just kept my head down and ran." John Melton, hobbling after the game, was nonetheless excited about the Tiger viclohr. His 70 yard punt return was setup by a solid wall of blockers until the final 20 yards and from there Melton dodged, stopped and started until hexviggled over the top of the pylon to score. "I thought for. moment that I was- n't going to make it," he said. "They had me pinned down the sideline but I just went airborne and slipped over the goal." He added, "I'm going to be ie.-id for Tampa Catholic. Mh ankle is sore but I'm going to be there."- The Tigers are hoping for a heavy turnout from their faithful fah base for the game against Tampa Catholic. The Tampa Catholic School and their new stadium are located at -4i..i', I. Ronm Avenue.

Sanchez covered All-American wide receiver Dwayne Jarrett when USC went for a pass on fourth down in the second quarter. Sanchez broke up the John David Booty pass intended for Jarrett and Stanford's offense took over on downs. Battling back from a severe ankle sprain suffered in Stanford's first game against the University of Oregon, Sanchez is returning to form on a very young Stanford defense that also features fellow Belle Glade cornerback Tim Sims (#14). Sims was a wide receiver for Glades Central High School. Both are "red- shirt" seniors with a year of college eligibility remaining.

The 'Excellence in Communi- ty Service Award' was presented to Bob Lawson, Pam Phillips, Rhonda Welky and Linda Anders. At the recent U.S. Sugar awards ceremony held on Oct. 25, at the Clewiston Country Club, The Excellence in Team Playing Award was earned by Mark Banky, Debbie Stewart, Patsy Davis and Belky Sanchez from Southern Gardens Citrus Pro- cessing. This team rose to the occasion when their depart- ment lost two accounting managers. They made a commit- ment to get the job done without replacing those positions. A researcher at the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station in Weslaco is expecting results from the first crop of Rio Red grapefruit trees that have under- gone genetic engineering for resistance to several threats. Dr. Eric Mirkov engineered some of the trees to be resistant to the cit- rus trizesta virus, others for insect resistance, and still more to resist bacteria including citrus canker and greening. The crop should show results in December. Dr. Mirkov says that if results are positive and quality and taste are not compromised, the research could be a significant step toward eradicating pests and disease. For more information see: www.ffva.org. Fruit not shipped is juiced Responding to a request from producers, USDA has agreed to purchase 34.8 million pounds of grapefruit juice, approximately 4 million gallons, from Florida producers. USDA will distribute the juice through its Food and Nutrition Service, which serves schools, Indian reservations and the eld- erly, and those in need following natural disasters. Because of canker-related federal regula- tions that restrict fresh fruit from being sold in citrus-producing states, more fruit than usual has been processed into juice, lead1 ing to oversupply.

DELAND, Fla.- Stetson Univer- sity's extensive art collection by Modernist painter Oscar Bluemner (1867-1938) soon will have a per- manent gallery on the Stetson cam- pus thanks to the generosity of longtime Stetson trustee and alum- na Dolly Hand and her husband, Homer Hand. The Hands are donating a $1 million lead gift for an art center to be built between Sampson Hall, home of the university's Art Depart- ment, and the duPont-Ball Library on campus. The university is apply- ing for grants to raise the additional funding needed for construction of the new facility. The 5,000-square-foot Homer and Dolly Hand Art Center will include two galleries; one to exhibit rotating selections from Stetson's Bluemner collection and the other to display other works from the uni- versity's permanent art coUeciion or for special shows. The building also will have a vault, a preparation area and an art study seminar room that also can be used as reception area. Stetson's Bluemner collection, which contains more than 1,000 pieces, was bequeathed to Stetson in 1997 by the artist's daughter, Vera Bluemner Kouba. Selections of the Vera Bluemner Kouba Col- lection ha\e been exhibited at the uni ersity and at the \\Vhitnev Museum of American Art in Ne\\ York City, but there has so far, been no facility to make the collection accessible to students and the pub- lic on a continuing basis. "This will allow us to preserve, protect and promote the collec- tion." said Art History Professor Roberta FaN is, chiir of the Art Deparrtrient and curator ol' theVera Bluemner Kouba ColleL:ion "This is a jewel itn i -,u cronri.

She was the only woman in her class and at age 20, was the youngest student ever to complete the law program. Mrs. Hand has served on the Stetson University Board of Trustees since 1994. The couple provided permanent funding for the Homer and Dolly Hand Award for Excellence in Faculty Research, which is given annually to recog- nize Stetson faculty members involved in significant research. They also give to Stetson for stu- dent scholarships each year. The Hands live in Belle Glade, where they own and operate Hand Enterprises, the management com- pany for their land holdings. They are active in civic affairs in the Belle Glade/Okeechbbee area, and both are former members of the Palm Beach Conmiunit\ College Board of Trustees. They have recei ed numerous awards, including the Champion of Higher Independent Education in Florida (CHIEF) Award from the Independent Colleges and Linikersitiesot Florida in 1996. The couple was touched by Oscar Bluemner's daughter's gift to Stetson, Mrs. Hand said and hope the Homer and Dllv Hand Art Cen- ter will increase recognition for both Bluemner's talents and the excel- lence of Stetson's Ai Department. "This is a tribute to Oscar Bluemner and a \\a\ to help.Stet- son," she said. "Stetson is so rich %%ith opportunities We have an unbelie. able music school, busi- ness school and College of Arts & Sciences and i don't think enough people kino\% about us. This will prio,:ide another opportunity for people to lear mr:e about Stet- son, its ptogiams and its history.

Taking this into account, an enterpris- ing graduate student from Harvard Uni- John versity sent Hicks him a letter: "Dear Mr. Twain: Enclosed please find $5. Please send me your best word." A few days later, the student received a telegram with this sin- gle word response: "Thanks!" "Thanks" may be the most valuable word in our language. It is definitely one of the words that comes forth during this Thanks- giving season. We give thanks for our many blessings. In the midst of these blessings, it is important to remember that the historical perspective of Thanks- giving arose out of giving thanks not just for blessings but for He who blesses even in the midst of adversity and difficult times. Think for a moment about the first Thanksgiving. During the first winter, half of the Ply- mouth colonists had died. In the midst of their situation, friendly Indians taught the Pilgrims to fish and to hunt and to plant corn. The result was that the summer and the fall brought a good harvest. So, despite all the death and hardships, they held a three-day Thanksgiving celebra- tion with about ninety Indians as guests. Their gratitude was not for something but in something. Real Thanksgiving is a decla- ration of faith concerning that One who is bigger than our cir- cumstances. It is faith in the One who can make all things work together for good. There are many things in life that confound me, but the one anchor of my soul has always been that God is good and God is faithful and that I can do all things through Him who gives me strength. For that, I give thanks. "Now, thank we all our God with heart and hands and voices; Who wondrous things hath done, in whom His world rejoic- es." (Martin Rinkart, 1663) Added note: Blessings to think about this week before Thanksgiving! If you have food in the refrig- erator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75 per- cent of this world of ours. If you have money in the bank, cash in your wallet and spare change in a dish some- place, you are among the top 8 percent of the Earth's wealthiest people. If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more fortunate than the million who will not survive this week. If you can attend a worship service or any other religion- related meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, torture or death, you are fortunate. Billions of people in the world cannot. Remember the sacred trust of accountability By The Reverend Samuel S. Thomas, Ph.D.+ aSaint Martin's Church, Clewiston Some of the clergy in town were discussing "accountability" at a recent meeting of our ministe- rial association. The idea of being responsible to someone helps us all serve for our common good. Early on, when the question was .asked "Am I my brother's keeper? (Genesis 4:9)," we saw that we are indeed responsible to others, as % ell as to ourselves and ulti- rratel to God. A friend who talks to me about his church in another part of the country told me about how the minister there came and used funds given for one purpose to support something else. The minister had a disagreement with one of the church members that led to the member hiring a lawyer to make sure she was still a part of the congregation. People left the church and my friend and his wife were num- bered among them. I talked about the accountability of that minis- ter; the responsibility toward the members and the church, what was said by actions taken. I regarded how fortunate I was when I came here to serve the Church I now serve; entrusted :with a well-equipped building in good condition, being entrusted with a congregation of faithful people who regularly worship and care for it, being with cntrust- ed with assuring that all who come are wel- 9,.w, comed and ,. wanted. I have been entrusted, - with other mrin- i; g, istries of a per- sonal nature; ....... things shared . with me along the way. I am accountable to SamuelS. all of them; to Thomas respect and honor those trusts. John the Baptist has provided me with some ideas about being an accountable minister a "faithful steward." He gives some good examples from his own ministry for the work that we all have to do (Matthew 3:ff). I noted that he came preaching a message of repentance; of help- ing turn their lives around. He preached in the desert; being faithful where he was called to serve and not worrying about more flattering or crowd-pleasing work. He must have been able to deal with pressures of public opinion; he had his own diet and wardrobe that seemed to have marked him as a "character." He was willing to express his opinions, letting the "chips fall where they may" and warned against complacency. He recog- nized that his ministry was only in the context of the one who would come after him. John was accountable in his ministry by knowing what he was called to do and being willing to answer for it. I have to acknowledge my accountability and be ready to answer for what I do too; for my use of the sacred trusts given to me. Part of the tragedy in our soci- ety today has been the betrayal of that trust by those in high places and those who have used their offices to exploit others or only to drive home their own agendas- usually at the expense of those who have the greatest of needs. Early on in the Bible, when the Lord asked Cain "Where is your brother Abel? (Genesis 4:)" and Cain asks in return "Am I my brother's keeper?" the answer is a resounding YES! It is easy to for- get that we are responsible to God, to others and to ourselves; and easy to ignore the trusts that we have been given by God and by others. That is the beginning of downfall for many and plants the seeds of destruction in their lives. Our stewardship of the resources placed in our hands; materially and spiritually, is what we will one day offer to God. One of my mentors told me that each year he goes back and reads his ordination vows; and then looks at his life to see how he has, or has not, lived up to them. I try to do so and add on the other promises I have made, written or unwritten, when given a new ministry or when elected to an organization or as a part of a group. I recommend that others do so in their lives too. How I answer to those who rely on me and how I respect the trusts given is finally how I respect what has come from God. That's where I finally will answer one day and be accountable. Thanks be to 'God, He's given me some good examples and models along the way to help us all. ...

Applcant: The applicant for this project is the United States Sugar Corporaftin. The applicants authorized representative Is Mr Nell Smith, V ugar Process ing Operations. The plicants mailing address is the Clewiston Sugar Mill and Refinery, 111 Ponce DeLon Avenue, Clewiston, FL 33440. FacilIty Location: The Untied States Sugar Corporation operates an existing sugar mill and refinery in Clewiston at the intersection of W.C. Owens Avenue and State Road 832 In Hendry County, Florida. Project: Thu existing Clewiston sugar mill and refinery is a major facility in accor- dance with Rule 62-212.400, EA.C., the regulatory program for the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) of Air Quality. In accardance with a PSD precon- ructon review permit, the applicant installed a new white sugar dryer designed to remove moisture from refined sugar prior to storage In a conditioning silo. No fuel is combusted. Low-pressure steam supplies the heat necessary for drying. Sugar particles in the exhaust stream are removed with a set of four cyclone col- lectors followed by a wet atomizing venturi-type scrubber. Sugar captured by the cled back In the refining process. The original project was subject to PSr re- constr uctin review and a determinaon of the Best Avai e Control Technotgy BA) for particuate matter (PM) and particuate matter less than 10 microns in iamatAr (PM1 0). . After completing construction, emissions tests nirowed ow PM10 erisslons, but unexpectedly higher total PM emissions. Inveatigations indicate that large water drop ets containing dissolved sugar are being re-entrained in the exhaust gas stream. Observations and estimation techniques indicate that the entrained drop- lets quickly settle to the ground and substantially remain on plant property. Sun- sequent equipment mdifcateions have improved performance and reduced PM emissions by approximately htft, but total PM emissions remain higher than ex- pected dueto the droplets. talr. 1 I rl ur ir., PMi d ( f aras l oi enr ,l pi.iub ,e t.ilt r f idc bit n ctIA iclu t r ai f t r i,,f.1 O "1r iti rtiojr e ria (uhtin.an PirT, I n I d to t on c o a dnder o eT i r ir. m b ..'i ril:[,,1 ,1 rl r,,A uuM h'il n h' ] 'i ir, v,- ulu ,iur .i,]lualurw Ii..

We just adopted a new puppy, and she is wonderful! We have a screened-in pool off the back or our home and are concerned about teaching our new pup to swim. The pool area is a major hang out spot for family and friends. How young is too young for swimming lessons for our pup? Do we need to be very concerned about carefully watching our new pup around the pool? Thanks, Don and Jane in Clewiston. Answer: Hello there Don and Jane and congratulations on your new puppy! Yes, you do need to be con- cerned with your puppy and curiosity about the pool. Unless a puppy has experi- ence with what a pool is, they will not be aware of what can happen if they jump in. In other words, a puppy has no idea of drowning or how to get out of the pool unless there is a taught or learned behavior. There are many tragedies with dogs and pools, just like there can be with small chil- dren. Your pup needs to be taught to Doc understand Sa that the pool is a body of water, and what to do if they either fall or jump in. I think you should start supervised swim- ming lessons right away. Just like you may use positive reinforce- ment with how to sit and stay, use the same technique with how to get out of the pool. Most dogs have a natural affinity with swim- ming but the problem occurs with how to get out. A dog that doesn't understand where the stairs are in a pool may exhaust themselves looking for an exit and can poten- tially drown. Supervision is a com- plete must until the dog can repe- titiously demonstrate that they "get it." This may take years in some cases. Be as cautions as pos- sible always. If your dog is old, blind or has any disabilities, then never leave them around the pool without you being there. Good luck with the swimming lessons.

PMA announces food safety program The Produce Marketing Asso- ciation (PMA) announced on Oct. 21, that its Board of Direc- tors had approved the outline of a new program to ensure con- sumers' continued confidence in the safety of produce. At its annual meeting, held Oct. 20, at PMA's Fresh Summit in San Diego, California, the board authorized $1 million in new funds to be allocated over the next 14 months to a four- pronged program designed to reinforce existing and determine new industry standards for food safety that extend "from field to fork." The plan will be coordinated with key industry association partners to avoid duplication and ensure a timely response. The activities in the plan will also form the basis of proactive com- munications with state and fed- eral government regulators. The multi-faceted program will include a research agenda to enhance growing and process- ing practices, enhanced educa- tion and training for all parts of the supply chain and a verifica- tion component to help industry members evaluate their adher- ence to benchmark practices. In addition, the plan calls for a con- sumer communications cam- paign aimed at rebuilding confi- dence in produce. Roadwatch The Florida Department of Charities property.
