Wildwood

creates

police

user fees


AMANDA MIMs
Staff Writer

.Wildwood residents may
pay an additional $5 a month
for police protection when
1hey pay their utility bills.
Recently, the Wildwood City
commission unanimously
approved a new ordinance to
charge a user fee for police
services. The fee will be used
to pay for three new police
officers, estimated to cost
about $150,000.
The proposed $5 fee will be
tacked on to the monthly util-
ity bills of Wildwood resi-
dents. City Council members
agreed to the levy because
current property tax assess-
ments only provide $600,000
in revenue for the city while
the budgeted amount for law
enforcement is more than $1
million.
Wildwood Police Chief Don
Clark said the potential posi-
tions the additional revenue
will provide will greatly bene-
fit the police department.
"This will give us extra cov-
erage on patrol, more man-
power on the st reets," he said.
"We actually lost one man last
year when a grant ran out. He
was a school resource officer,
but we used him on the road
too."
All i3 law enforcement offi-
pcers, including the police
chief and investigator, work
road patrol.
:Clark also said that during
the last year, citizens have
become more active in report-
ing crime and suspicious
activity in their areas, and the
department has provided the
extra coverage they request
"But when we obligate a cer-
tain area for more officers,
we're lacking in other areas
of the city."
He said through the last
several years, the police
department received 1,000.

is a fundraiser for the
American Cancer Society.
If you don't plan to camp out
and haven't taken part in a

thing! You can still come out
on Friday and Saturday for
the fun.
This year's event chair is
Gidget Gibson, of the Sumter
County Clerk's Office. She's
leading the pack with event
co-chair Julie Pacheco.


What exactly
does that mean for A
residents who'd
like to drop by for R
some of the fun?
This year it
means 34 teams
putting' on the fun -
from an evening
talent show to chal-
lenging each other in contests.
The evening begins with a
survivor's reception, where


more than
4 100 cancer sur-
vivors will be hon-
ELAY ored as the event
R LIFE kicks off.
Registration for
survivors is at 4:30

ing ceremonies are slated for

drug

charges

AMANDA MIMS
Staff Writer

A Lakeland man was arrest-
ed Sunday in Wildwood on
drug trafficking charges after
more than 34 grams of
cocaine and 20 grams of mari-
juana were discovered in his
vehicle. Wildwood Police
Officer Cliff Adams stopped a
driver, Mathis Leroy Walker,
26, because of the dark tint on
the windows of his vehicle,
said Wildwood Police Captain
Eddie Reeser. Upon
approaching the vehicle,
Adams detected the scent of
burnt marijuana, Reeser said.
Adams got permission from
the suspect to search the vehi-
cle and offered to help the
handicapped Walker by
retrieving his wheelchair
from the back of the vehicle,
Reeser said. Adams then
noticed a bulge in the man's
right front pocket, the shape
of which was consistent with
that of a pocketknife.
When Adams asked about

One major goal that day was
to spread information about
two bills in the house and sen-

instance, not-for-profit is the
way to go," said Community
Relations Manager Julia
Allen. 'A not-for-profit can
provide such comprehensive
services the for-profit can't
provide." She said because of
the nature of the business, a

He said Adams removed from

"'Every dime we get we roll

They managed to distribute
information about the bills
and surveys to about'one hun-
dred people on Saturday.,
. Overall, though, the mood of
the occasion seemed to be one
of satisfaction and accom-
plishment
Executive Director Ted
Williams said they've raised
close to $500,000 for the build-
ing so far, and only $1.5 mil-
lion more needs to be raised.
"Through the philanthropy in
this community we can do this
in the next couple of months,"
he said.
Among. others who spoke
there was Congresswoman


Ginny Brown-Waite, who used
her short time on stage to
express gratitude to the peo-
ple of Hospice.
"These are the most com-
passionate people in the
whole wide world," Brown-

calls in an average month, but
that number has since gone up
by 50 percent and appears to be
increasing, every month.
"They're stretched pretty thin
right now," he said.
Wildwood city commissioners
and Mayor Ed Wolf also saw the
need to generate money for city
law enforcement
"Even though we're a town
with less than four thousand
people, we're. responsible for
every car passing through the
city," Wolf said, including traffic
generated by the nearby
Villages. .
"I think this would hurt the
residents less this way than any
other Way we could address the
problem," he said. "The only
other method of doing it would
be with ad valorem taxes. We
could double them and not gen-
erate enough money."
Wolf explained when the idea
was discussed at budget ses-
sions last summer, the commis-
sion talked about a five-dollar
monthly fee, but the actual
amount would have to be passed
by a resolution made by the
commission.
"That 40 or 50 percent of folks


Gibson said they've got sever-,
al "diners" open and the treats
available will range from cheese
fries and root beer floats to bar-
becue ribs, chicken and chili. -.
In the morning, teams will
have breakfast specials avail-.
able, with grits and bacon and
egg sandwiches.
Aside from food, some,
campers will have cookbooks,
purple hope bracelets and other
items for sale.
One team is even working on a
dance and karaoke.
Gibson used to work for
Leesburg Regional' Medical
Center and originally got
involved through the hospital..
But since then, it's become,
more personal for her.
"I lost both my father and my.
grandfather to cancer and I have
an aunt and a grandmother who.
are both survivors of cancer,"-'
she said.
Money raised from the event'
and from items sold at the event~'
is passed on to the American
Cancer Society. The agency uses
the funds to provide assistance
to cancer victims. That means
providing everything from infor-
mation and transportation to
wigs and prosthesis. Some of the
funds are also used for research
in battling the disease.
Each of the 34 teams gathers .
$1.000 to donate, along with any
special effort they make to add
to their total.
who aren't paying anything in
taxes toward police
services...are basically getting a
free ride," he said. 4
Wolf said there hasn't been
any resistance from .residents,
and he didn't expect any.
"When you consider five dol- I
lars to hire three additional peo-.
ple to make the city a safer .
place, it's not that much money,"'
he said. "I don't think five dol-
lars will hurt anybody. I think,
we're being very fair."
Wolf explained that this. will
affect about 2,300 'people who
have utility accounts for city
water, sewer, and trash services'
but not those who are served
outside the city. It's estimated"
that user fees will bring ii'-
$12,000 per month.
"I don't know when the corn-'
mission will decide to impose
this," he said, but when they do
"we could improve law enforce-
ment in the city. We could spend
more time in those areas of con-
cern."
Wolf said the ordinance
requires that this revenue be
used solely for new positions, so
it could not be tised to supple-
ment existing ones or for any
purpose other than law enforce-
ment
- "We may be on the cutting
edge of this," he said. "I don't
know of anybody that has
structured it exactly like we:'
have."

Bikers ride



for good cause


AMANDA MIMS
Staff Writer

-On Hondas .and Harleys,
bikers rode out on April 2 to
the Blue Heron Pilot Club
poker run to have a good time
apd support people with
brgin-related disorders and
injuries.,
"'It was really good. We
enjoyed it," said Bushnell res-
ident and motorcycle enthusi-
ast Zehda Slone as she
relaxed on, a bale of hay in
frpnt of the courthouse with
several other bikers.
-She said she and her hus-
band Bill often ride on the
weekends, 'and thought this
would be a way to support a
good cause and have fun in
the process. They, like several
others on Saturday, had never
participated in a poker run
before, but said they would
definitely do it again,
,The ride started out at the
Sbmter County Courthouse in
Bfishnell and went through
Webster, then to Hernando
aRd Citrus counties, and even-
tdally back to Bushnell. The
rile took about two hours to
complete, with five stops
along the way where partici-
|pnts would pick up cards


until the end when they'd col-
lected enough to have a poker
hand.
There were prizes, for the
people with the best and
worst hands, as well as draw-
ings for 90 other prizes,
including restaurant gift cer-
tificates, free oil changes, and
motorcycle care kits. -
Christina Thibodeau, pilot
club committee chairperson,
said she wanted to try to raise
money this way because she
and her husband Chris are
motorcycle enthusiasts and
thought this would be' a good
way to 'incorporate the two
interests and raise money.
Although the turnout wasn't
quite what Pilot 'Club mem-
bers would've liked, they did
manage to raise a little money
and didn't seem to be discour-
aged. "We'd like to make this
an annual event and bring
more .people into the area,"
Thibodeau said.
The Blue Heron Pilot Club
supports local people with
brain-related injuries. They
have donated to Lifestream
Behavioral Center, intro-
duced residents at Osprey
Point Nursing Home to email
and computers, and even
donated American flags to the
City of Bushnell.

Wildwood residents Diane
and Tommy Long never
expected that their 16-year-old
miniature horse would. be
nationally recognized as one of
America's most talented,pets.
Sunny, who stands just 31 /2
.inches tall, was a big star on
March 25 when he came out
ahead of four of five .other
finalists in the America's Most
Talented Pets competition on
the NBC-TV "Today" program.
He wowed the audience and
the judges by taking a letter
out of a mailbox and hitting a
plastic golf ball using a.small
child's golf club he swung from
his mouth.
"He's a little ham," Tommy
said. "The more they clap, the
better he'll' perform." And he
had more applause than ever
outside the New York studio
where the show was filmed, as
hundreds of people watched
him do his favorite tricks.
It was only a week earlier
when the Longs saw the con-
test advertised on television.
"We saw a horse with a
paintbrush in its mouth (on the
commercial) and we thought
our miniature horse could do a
lot better," Tommy said. Three
days after they sent their video
of the talented equine, they got
a call from the show's produc-
ers inviting them to appear
"When we got the call, we
were on cloud nine," Diane
said. The following day, they
set out for New York City.
In the end, Sunny came in
second out of a total of over
200 entries. The overall win-
ner was a dog that did an acro-
batic routine with its owner.
Even though they didn't win,
the Longs said they were
happy to be on the show and
that their horse was recog-
nized.
"It was very, very exciting
and interesting. It was quite
an experience," Diane said.
"He's like a little person,"
Diane said. "We've worked
with 20 minis and he's the
smartest."
In nine years of ownership,
Diane has taught Sunny over
70 tricks, from "bowling" to

Foul
Foul... the polka dot liberal judi-
ciary interfered with human digni-
ty with the passage and upholding
of Roe vs. Wade.
Now comes full-blown ritualistic
euthanasia. All handicap; all elder-
ly are vulnerable.
President Bush and Governor
Bush are right ... human life is pre-


It's been said what we do for oth-
ers is what remains' after death -
and what becomes immortal. I
believe that's true in the case of
Terri Schiavo. This young woman -
described by friends as shy and
quiet, and as someone who
shunned the spotlight educated
an entire nation, much of the world
in fact
Regardless of our views on the
ethical, legal and constitutional
issues surrounding her case, we all
can agree that more people than
ever know the importance of hav-
ing end-of-life discussions with
their family, doctor, clergy or attor-
ney.
This is why in the Senate I'm sup-
porting two different bills aimed at
further increasing people's aware-
ness of living wills and making it
easier to fill them out
One of these bills would cover a
doctor's office visit for all Medicare
patients to discuss end-of-life med-


cious.
Nothing legally could stop the
roller coaster inhumane mistreat-
ment of handicap Terfi Schiavo. It
was not that long ago women were
routinely abused by their spouses!,
many lost their lives. Husband
Michael Schiavo stood guard that
not a drop of water touch Terri
Schiavo's lips as her lips cracked


ical choices, and fund a public edu-
cation campaign to inform
Americans of all ages about the
importance of filling out living
wills. The other would ,require
state driver license agencies to pro-
vide interested persons 'with easy
access to information on living
wills similar to the way people are
informed about organ donation.
I.believe Congress is now in a
position to help spare other fami-
lies the kind of suffering experi-
enced by Terri's relatives by enact-
ing this living-wills legislation.
Certainly the last few weeks have
been difficult for all involved. Even
the actions of Congress raised
questions over whether federal
lawmakers overstepped their
bounds.
N As you may know, I did not sup-
port the first version of the so-
called Terri Schiavo law, because I
felt it could have undermined the
medical privacy of every single


and blood came from her tongue.
Legislation must be enacted to
protect the handicapped. The
mockery of filibustering well-quali-
fied judicial candidates must
cease.
The USA needs a balanced judi-
ciary and hope for the handicap.

American. I also disagreed with a
second version, partly because it
would -have given Terri's parents
another long year to file an appeal.
The third version to give the par-,
ents one final judicial review in a
reasonable time frame one month,
instead of a year was one I felt I,
could support In my view, that nar-
rowly worded bill covering only
Terri's case presented a way to
finally settle the family's unending
dispute. And that's what I as a par-
ent would have wanted one last
say on behalf of my child.
Terri's life tragically was cut:
short, but her legacy will be far-
reaching, especially if Congress
passes living-wills legislation in the
wake of her passing.

Aside from the requirement that all funeral homes

when selecting a funeral home include: Are they flexi
enough to handle your specific needs? Are decisions m,
locally or from an out-of-town corporate office? Are t
full service? Do they sub-contract services such
cremation or do they provide these options on-site?

The gospel of Charlie


Afew weeks ago, I visited
with my friend Joan.
She's the one who con-
viniced me to go with her to do
laundry for hurri-
cane relief work-
ers after
Hurricane
Charley destroyed
central Florida
last year.
I had gone just
that one time, but
Joan went back ,
repeatedly. Joan ,;i4
has one of those
kind hearts that I
only dream of hav- NAM
ing. I'm hoping if I ENN
spend more time K
with her that some
of her kindheart-
edness will rub off on me.
Joan has never met an ugly
dog. There's no such thing as a
stray as long as she has four
walls and a roof. She likes
people, too she adopts
those as well.


II
ME


During one of her laundry
trips last fall, Joan wandered
over to the makeshift animal
shelter and put her name on
about a dozen or so
dogs to take home in
case their owners
didn't claim them.
She ended up with
Charlie, named after
the hurricane that
left him homeless.
Charlie is a brown
and white cocker
spaniel; only when
Joan first saw him,
he was mostly a ball
of matted fur and
cY flea bites.
ELY If you, could
choose any dog in
the world, Charlie
would probably not be your
first choice. He might not even
be your last choice. You
might've said, "Put that dog
out of its misery."
But Joan doesn't think any
dog is too far gone to love. For

the past four years she's cared
for a Down syndrome dog with
no skull that was only expect-
ed to live for a few weeks
when she got him from the vet.
The dog looks odd, but it wags
its tail when it walks.
Charlie does, too. After
being adopted by Joan, after
having its matted coat shaved
bare, after being de-wormed
and de-everythinged, after
being loved and fed and loved
some more, Charlie has
turned into a brand new dog.
He was recently certified as a
service dog, a dog with a pur-
pose.
I was thinking about Charlie
and about another brand-new
(human) friend while watch-
ing a video clip at church last
week, a scene from "The
Passion of the Christ."


Carrying his cross to Golgotha,
Jesus tells his mother that he
is making "all things new."
Although the gospels don't
record Jesus saying that
before his death, he does say
it after his Resurrection. In
Revelation 21:5 John the apos-
tle sees Christ upon his throne
saying, "Behold, I make all
things new."
Some people think the
world is hopelessly winding
down, that. it's progressively
getting worse, "going to hell in
a hand basket" as some say.
Some think Jesus will return
to claim his own any minute
now, so why bother trying to
make things better? Why not
sit back, hunker down and
wait for Armageddon?
Other folks, however, think
that while we're waiting for


Jesus to return, we should
work to restore, refresh and
renew. To rule and subdue
and to advance God's kingdom
on the earth. They believe that
he is all about making things
new now, as well as later.
That's what I tend to think
That in the middle of incredi-
ble disaster and destruction
and the terribleness of life,
lives are being changed and
made new.
Just like Joan taking a lost
and near-hopeless dog, left
homeless in a storm, adopting
it and giving it a.new name
and a new purpose, so God is
taking lost and near-hopeless
lives and doing the same. No,
God does greater things he
gives those he rescues his own
Spirit and begins to conform
them into his own likeness.


Last week was Easter, bilt
the message of new life doeS.
n't end with the turning ofaP
calendar page. God came to-da
broken earth to seek and said
the lost and restore them It
new life. To give them a future
and a hope. He still comes, hed
still makes all things new.
You might even say h4
makes tails wag and heart
rejoice again. ;1

Nitrates: As a precaution we always notify physicians and health care providers in this area if there is ever a higher than normal level of
nitrates' in the water supply.

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. :
As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, -
radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. '

Contaminants that\may be present in source water include:


(A)' Microbial contAminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural v
livestock operations, and wildlife.
(B) Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban stortmwater runoff, R
industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or.farming. .
\(C) Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential
uses.,
(D) Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes
and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems.
(E) Radioactive contarpinants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations, which limit the amount of certain contaminants in
water provided by public'water systems. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations establish limits for contaminants in
bottled water, which mus provide the same protection for public health.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The
presence of contaminant& does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and :
potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection' Agency's Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-
4791. .

Thank you for allowing us t continue providing your family with clean, quality water this year.


Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons
such as persons with cancer undergoing'chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or ,
other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice ,
about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by
Cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791). ,* A

We at Lake Panasoffkee Water Association would like you to understand the efforts we make to continually improve the water treatment,>
process and protect our watbr resources. We are committed to insuring the quality of your water. If you have any questions or

ments. Tuition is also much
lower than that of state uni-
versities. Add to this the fact
that LSCC has also earned a
reputation for producing out-
standing students. Each year,
LSCC Associate in Arts
degree graduates have'
among the highest GPAs of
all students graduating from
four-year universities, con-
sistently placing in the top
ten percent or higher. LSCC

in Science and Applied
Science degrees which offer
career training in many pop-
ular fields, as do the certifi-
cate and diploma programs.

Eclipse needs a good home


Eclipse has been with the
Humane Society/SPCA of
Sumter County since he was a
kitten.
He is now 1-1/2-years old, and
he is still dreaming of the day
he goes to a home where he can
be loved and pampered.
Eclipse is a handsome long-
haired cat with a loving person-'
ality. Would you like to adopt a
rescued kitty? If so, e-mail the
Humane Society/SPCA 'at
humane@sum.net or mail in
your request to: PO. Box 67,
Lake Panasoffkee, FL 33538.
Visit our web site at
www.humanesocietyspcaof-
sumtercounty.com to see our
other adorable animals.
Why are so many beautiful
cats like Eclipse homeless?
This typical scenario explains
the problem.
A stray cat comes into your
yard. You are not a bad person.
You can't stand to see the cat go
hungry. So you feed her. And
everyday the cat comes back to
your yard, and everyday you
put food out for her, because
you feel sorry for the cat.
Eventually the cat doesn't wan-
der off far from your yard. Why
should she? She has found a
food source.
No, you are not a bad person.
You are feeding a cat in need.
But one day, you hear the tiny
cries of baby kittens. What will
you do now? Keep on feeding
the cat. Then the kittens grow
up and you are feeding them.
As the kittens grow up, some
get pregnant. You are becoming
overwhelmed with kittens.
Your friends and neighbors do'
not want them, and the local


J ,-

Eclipse has been with the Humane Society/SPCA of Sumter
County since he was a kitten.


shelter is filled to the max with
animals. Some people bring
them to Animal Control where
they most likely will be eutha-
nized. Others drown the kit-
tens, a horrible way to get rid of
them.
And once again, you continue
to feed the cat. And once again,
another litter is born,.and once
again, the babies, are
destroyed.
When will this terrible cycle
end? When will people learn?
If you feed a stray cat, that
cat becomes your responsibili-
ty. You can call Animal Control
at 793-1470 or the Humane
Society/SPCA at 793-9117' to
borrow a humane trap. Once
trapped, you can then bring the


cat to a Low Cost Spay Neuter
Clinic, such as the Care's
Center in Lake Panasoffkee or s
Pet Luv in Brooksville. Once
altered, the cat can be released"&
back into your yard and. you>
can continue feeding her. And -
No kittens will be born only to; ,
be killed.
The cost to spay and neuter a
cat is very inexpensive. It cost
less to have the 'stray visitor
altered than to have to feed all
of its off springs.
This is the time of year when
litters of unwanted kittens are
born. And most of the kittens
will be killed. Please spay and
neuter the stray you are feed-
ing .and stop this cycle of
killing.

Webster first-graders take electronic company by storm


Want to know about tomor-
row's technology and who's
responsible for it?
You'll find super technology in
the making on display at
Webster Elementary School.
It's in the first-grade class of
teacher Lynn Thomas, but the
copyright for it now belongs to
the Toshiba electronic company..
Thomas and four of her first
graders stormed their competi-
tion in the Regional challenge in
the Toshiba ExploraVision
Contest with an awesome cre-
ation of their own.
The team included Erin
Tuten, Matthew Garrepy, Micah
Lanham, and Dylan Brannen.
These dedicated, high-tech
inventors put in 60-plus hours of
research after school to come up
with an original, futuristic
invention called the SMART
DESK
The students are still in the
running for the national title.
For the contest, .teams used
futuristic technology to invent
something that could benefit
society. The team mailed off.
their entry on Jan. 26, according
to teacher Lynn Thomas.
They were competing with
thousands of teams throughout
the United States -and Canada,
but were notified on Feb. 28th
that they are one of only six (K-3)
division regional teams going
forward in the competition.
' The team members learned
how to use, their imaginations
and technology to solve real
world problems. They conduct-
ed a school survey then identi-
fied all the things they wanted to
change about the student desk,
Thomas notes.
They got started by identifying
the problem teachers and stu-
lents surveyed agreed their stu-
lent desks are uncomfortable,
ugly, outdated and don't meet
the technology needs' of today's
student
They came up with a solution
- their SMART DESK.
Each desk has a personal arti-
ficial intelligence tutor called
"COACH" who will stay with its
student all through school. The
SMART DESK uses virtual real-
ity to teach for example,
Abraham Lincoln or George
Washington seem to come to life
to teach kids about their time in
history and their lives.
Holograms serve as rewards and
a hover board base allows kids
to relocate with ease and with-
out the scraping of current desks
-1 something inventor Lanham
says hurts his ears.
SMART DESK has a flat.
touch-screen computer built
into the desktop and uses wire-
less Internet with server access.
It uses biometric security, air
pressure, electronic paper, light
signals,' retractable blinders,
and dispensers for sharpened
pencils and water. It has a


paper-return tube system and
components for physical, hear-
ing, sight' and language impair-
ments.
The team researched their
technology in the past, present,
and future then submitted an 11-
page report and five' mock web
pages detailing the SMART
DESK
Winning the regional competi-
tion also means that Toshiba
now has the rights to the kids'
creation.
About the team
The team has discussed their
project through e-mail with Dr.
H. Jeong who received a medal
from the American Association
of Physics Teachers for his work
in holography and is the founder
of Integraf. (holokits 1)
Dr. TJ. Jeong, (known as TJ.)
together with Dr. Hans
Bjelkhagen discovered true-
color holograms. TJ. also discov-
ered cylindrical holograms -
images people, could walk
around. In 1973, he helped
develop 3-D moving holograms.
Dr. Jeong told us how to make
simple holograms in our SMART
DESK, notes Thomas.
Dr. Jack Mostow wrote to the
team in an e-mail- "What a cool
idea your desk is! It reminds me
of some of my favorite books
when I was a Kid. The author
was Louis Slobodkin."
He went on to tell students
that the part that reminds him of
their desk comes in Slobodkin's
later books.
"He imagined a machine and
wrote about what it would be
like."
Mostow's project 'LISTEN
(Reading Tutor). is an actual
computer program that helps
children learn to read.
Our team agrees with Ron
Brachman. He said "You don't
just put these technologies in a
pot and stir and hope that it all
adds up." He will rely on.
research. "The challenge we
have asked people to look at is
how do we put all of these pieces
together?"
Brachman is leading the
"Perceptive Assistant That
Learns Program."
"This is the kind of "putting
the pieces together" research
that will make our COACH a
reality some day.
"This SMART DESK incorpo-
rates some of the leading tech-
nology teachers are pursuing."
Thomas points out.-: ;.
The team agreed fixing the
student desk would help kids
learn better and help society.
Our survey needs directed our
research. We went to a hands-on
museum to find technologies
that would improve the student
desk.

would expect to see better atten-
dance and more time on task
because children would be anx-
ious to come to school and learn.
"The COACH could give.
teachers valuable infonnationto

dren reach their full potential.
"The SMART DESK would be
an important link between the
classroom, home, and the world
we live in. The school would
save money on textbooks, work-
books., and paper.
"I was pleased to see that the
SMART DESK offers a variety of
ways to meet the needs or chil-
dren with disabilities. It's not
too hard to imagine that a "stu-

The Smart Desk has a number of additions.to make a student
more successful in their academic years. Those features
include a "COACH" that stays with them throughout their aca-
demic years, holograms for rewards and virtual reality charac-

scraping when it's moved and a paper-return tube to get
school work to teachers. '

of them.
As he's gotten older his
interests have grown. Now he
collects Pokemon. His favorite

is chicken nuggets and his
favorite subject in school is
the computer lab:
He plays soccer and base-
ball and loves.to create things.

colorful and detailed pictures.
He also likes to make things
from trash. He has taken an
empty tissue box, toilet paper
tubes, straw, rubber band and
a piece of cardboard and
turned it into an airplane.
ExploraVision has given
Matthew the opportunity to
see that his creations can
become reality.
"I think ExploraVision has
been a wonderful experience
for the team. It brings out their
creativity and enthusiasm for
the world around them. They
see how teams work together
to solve problems, learn skills,
communicate complex ideas,
and meet goals. It helps them
discover that their thoughts
and drawings are important.
ExploraVision allows chil-
dren to use their best qualities
to make real things from their
imagination," said Matthew's
dad and the team mentor
Kevin Garrepy.',
"I think ExploraVision has
been a wonderful opportunity
for Matthew. It has filled in
some of the gaps that are left
open by public education. It


has allowed him to use his tal-
ents, drawing and creating, in
a fun and useful way. It has
also taught him how to work as
a team with a group of people.
I think ExploraVision has
been great for him. It has
shown that his dreams can
come true." Said Matthew's
mom Christy Garrepy.

sister named Erica and three
brothers Adam, Matthew
and Cody He has two minia-
ture pinchers named Pepper
and Angel and two aquari-
ums with fish.
Abounding with so much
curiosity and energy makes it
hard to visualize that he is a
four-year cancer survivor
who. won the battle with
Burkitt's Lymphoma. When
he grows up he wants to be a
doctor.
He loves to bounce on the
trampoline, ride his go-cart,
play baseball, soccer and
spend time with his friend
Dylan.
Watching his brother Cody
spend a lot of time drawing


sparked his own interest in
art. Thomas inspired him to:
put his talent to work He
entered the 2005 Florida
State Fair writing and illus-
trating contest and won third
place in the state for his age
category.
His favorite subject is sci-
ence. He loves to do experi-
ments and around home he is
always searching for odds
and ends to build or create
objects, which he pictures in
his imagination.
"The Toshiba
ExploraVision competition
has been the most challeng-
ing and rewarding experi-,
ence for Micah. It has been a
true learning experience, "
said Micah's mom.

First equine West Nile case reported Bushnell teen paralyzed in fight,


Florida Agriculture and
Consumer Services
Commissioner Charles H.
Bronson says this year's first
case of Eastern Equine
Encephalitis has been
reported in Union County
and he is urging horse own-
ers to have their animals vac-
cinated against mosquito-
borne illnesses.
The three-year-old horse
was seen by a local veterinar-
ian who suspected Eastern
Equine Encephalomyelitis
(EEE).
On March 22, lab testing
confirmed the diagnosis of
EEE.
The testing also revealed
an exposure to the West Nile
Virus (WNV), which may
have complicated the horse's
condition.
"Horse owners have done a
good job in getting their ani-


mals properly vaccinated
over the past few years and
we have seen a significant
drop in the number of equine
WNV cases," Bronson said.
"But it is critical that we
don't become complacent
Mosquito season is upon us
and the chances of contract-
ing these diseases have, of
course, increased.
Horse owners are remind-
ed that their animals' vacci-
nations must be up to date,
including the necessary
booster shots."
In 2004, there were 48
reported cases of EEE in
horses and six confirmed
equine WNV cases.
That compares with nearly
500 reported WNV cases in
2002. A vaccination against
WNV became available in
the summer of 2001 and EEE
vaccinations have been


around for years.
Bronson is also urging
Florida residents and visi-
tors to take precautions
against mosquito bites to
reduce the chance of con-
tracting mosquito-borne ill-
nesses.
People are urged to avoid
being outdoors at dusk and
dawn when mosquitoes are
most active and, if they must
be outside at those times, to
wear loose-fitting, long-
sleeve shirts and pants.
People are also urged to
use mosquito repellent con-
taining DEET.
Residents should take
steps to eliminate mosquito
breeding grounds on their
property by removing stand-
ing water from birdbaths,
kiddie pools, old tires and
other items where water can
accumulate.


police trying to locate two men


A fight late last month in
Webster had tragic results
when a teenager was left par-
alyzed after being thrown to
the ground, according to
Webster Police Chief Dennis
Johnson.
Ishmael McCook, 19, of
Bushnell, was approached
on the afternoon of March 25


by two other men for
unknown reasons and a fight
ensued, Johnson said.
When police arrived on the
scene, "he appeared to be
paralyzed from the chest
down," Johnson said.
The fight happened on
Northwest Fourth Street, and
probably only lasted a very


short time, he said.
Johnson said police are:
looking for two Sumter;
County men in connection
with the beating.
McCook was transported to
Orlando Regional Medicalr
Center, where he remains in
stable condition.

some special promotions for
both anglers and spectators.

Peanuts are often thought of
as high-fat foods, but party goers
can feel a little better about
reaching for the roasted nuts at
holiday gatherings this season.
Not only do peanuts contain
the so-called "good" kind of fat,
but University of Florida
researchers have 'found they
also are high in a wide variety of
helpful antioxidants, rivaling
the fruits often sought out by
health-conscious consumers.
"When it comes to antioxidant
content, peanuts are right up
there with strawberries." said
Steve Talcott, an assistant pro-
fessor of food science and
human nutrition at UF's
Institute of Food and
Agricultural Sciences. "We
expected a fairly high antioxi-
dant content in peanuts, but we
were a bit shocked to find that
they're as rich in antioxidants as
many kinds of fruit."
Talcott and other UF
researchers tested the antioxi-
dant content of a dozen different
peanut varieties in a study pub-.
lished recently in an issue ofthe.
journal Food Chemistry dated
May 2005.
Antioxidants are chemicals
that block the aging effects of
free radicals unstable mole-
cules naturally occurring in the
human body that damage living


cells. The damage caused by
free radicals has been linked to
heart disease, stroke, certain
cancers and macular degenera-
tion of the eye.
The growing reputation of
antioxidants has led an increas-
ing number of people to include
more fruits in their diets, partic-
ularly those that are orange or
red in color, because such foods
have been found to be rich in the
health-promoting chemicals.
Vitamins A. C, and E are recog-
nized! as antioxidants, and
polyphenols a family of chemi-
cals commonly found in foods -
also have strong antioxidant
properties. Peanuts are a good
source of Vitamin E, but in the
past they typically have not been
considered an 'antioxidant-rich
food, largely because of a lack of
data on their polyphenol con-
tent
Now UF researchers have,
found that peanuts contain high
concentrations of polyphenols -
chiefly a compound called p-
coumaric acid. And they found
that roasting can increase the'
level of p-coumaric acid in
peanuts, boosting their overall
antioxidant content by as much
as 22 percent
"If you compare them,
(peanuts) to other foods people
think of as rich in antioxidants -


mostly fruits and berries -
peanuts come out somewhere in
the middle," Talcott said.
"They're no match for the foods
at the top of the scale, such as
pomegranate, but they do rival
other foods that people eat just
for their antioxidant content."
Talcott said roasted peanuts
are about as rich in antioxidants
as blackberries or strawberries,
and are far richer in the chemi-
cals than fruits such as apples,
carrots or beets. '
The findings add to the grow-
ing reputation peanuts are get-
ting for their healthy benefits.
"We already know from previ-
ous studies that including
peanuts and peanut butter in a
healthful diet can lower choles-
terol, help people lose weight
and prevent type 2 diabetes,"'
said Kristen Ciuba, a nutrition-
ist for the Peanut Institute, a
nonprofit organization in
Albany, Ga., funded by the'
peanut industry.
The UF researchers' findings
were. part of a broader study
designed to measure the nutri-
tional differences between tra-
ditional peanut breeds and the
growing number of high oleic
peanuts now available to peanut
growers.
, Oleic acid is a monounsaturat-
ed fat, part of a family of chemi-


cals sometimes referred to as
"good" fat A diet rich in oleic
acid is believed to lower choles-
terol levels and reduce the
chance of heart disease. In
recent years, UF and a handful
of other universities have bred
new peanut varieties that have
higher-than-average levels of
oleic acid.
High-oleic peanuts also have
a far longer shelf life than other
peanuts, largely because oleic
acid doesn't oxidize as rapidly as
other kinds of fat. Talcott and his
fellow researchers thought that
the peanuts' high antioxidant
content might be responsible for
that effect, but their tests
showed no significant differ-
ences in antioxidant content
between high-oleic and tradi-
tional peanuts.
Agronomy professor Dan
Gorbet, who heads UF's peanut-
breeding program, said it should
be possible to breed the nuts
with high antioxidant levels in
mind. "It's certainly worth look-
ing into further," said Gorbet, a
co-author of the study. "The big
question is not whether it can be
done the question is whether
the demand is there. So far, peo-
ple haven't been seeking out
peanuts for their antioxidant
content, but maybe in the future
they will be."
