Christ Church plan needs height variance
: *: ** ^. A *. *. '* . < ^ ,.. : : 1
By KATHY HARTMAN
EDITOR.
Christ Episcopal Chuich in
Ponte Vedra will have to get a
height variance to build its
proposed two-story parish
hall, according to a document
filed with the county this
week.
Part of the upper level of the
proposed structure reaches 33
feet, 8 feet higher than the 25-
foot limit imposed by the
Ponte Vedra-Palm Valley
Overlay Ordinance, David
Harrell, a county planner, said,
Thursday.
An assembly hall with a
stage is planned for the second
floor of the 19,000-square-
foot parish hall proposed to
replace the existing single-
story hall.
A peak in the roof was
designed "so the voices carry,"
Harrell said.
At a community meeting
last month, Frank Watson,
head of the church's capital
projects committee, said the
church's revised expansion
plans "eliminate the need for
any zoning variances."'
The variance required, how-
ever, is a non-zoning variance.
Information about the vari-
ance, which requires approval
of the St. Johns County
Commission, is part of com-
ments on the church's plans
from the county's planning
division.
The 25-foot height limit

The existing parish hall of Christ Episcopal Church (above) will
be replaced by a two-story structure if plans are OK'd.
150 feet of a residentially
zoned district, according to
comments filed with the appli-
cation.
Christ Episcopal Church,
located in a residential area on
Solana Road at San Juan Drive
about two blocks east of State
Road AlA, filed a preliminary
site plan last week, nearly a
year after first telling the com-
munity about its plans.

Pool envisioned at Cornerstone
BY LAURA FOWLER
STAFF It'RITER
Another extension in St.
Johns County's purchase of the
New Beginnings Baptist
Church campus may postpone
the closing on the deal until
the end of June.
This means Ponte Vedra resi-
dents must wait longer for the
Cornerstone Community
Center, which will take the
church's place.
"We're all working with the
same goal in mind to close as
soon as we can," Todd Barfield,
a representative of the church's
building committee, said
Thursday.
The $8.9 million sale, which
County' Commissioners agreed
to in September 2004, was con-
tingent upon the church's relo-
cation to a new campus west of
the Intracoastal Waterway.
But final inspections are tak-
ing longer than expected on a
21-acre parcel east of Davis
Park that was offered to the
church in October 2005 by The
Parc Group developers of
Nocatee and the Stokes
Land Group.
Closing was originally sched-
uled for March 30, but delays
may push the closing to June,
representatives of both sides
said this week.
Nocatee is a mixed-use
development going in on both
sides of County Road 210 west
of the Intracoastal Waterway.

Amendments to a 2003
county ordinance that
banned parking on Ponte
Vedra Boulevard were post-
poned Monday, pending the
result of St. Johns County's
lawsuit .with Surfrider
Foundation over beach
access.
In addition to ruling on the
arguments presented in the
lawsuit at a non-jury trial in
November, Circuit Judge
Michael Traynor has been
asked to
reconsider- a-
claim he earli-
er threw out
in the law-
suit.
J a m es
Woodruff, a
lawyer for
Surfrider, has
asked Traynor
to reconsider
Surfrider's
claim that the
parking is
"constitution-
ally vague,"
noting that
Laura Barrow, Ben
an assistant
county attorney, recently said
the law is "clearly unconstitu-
tional."
That claim was one of eight
of .11 counts in the lawsuit
thrown out by Traynor in
2004.
Lawyers for Surfrider said
their decision to reintroduce
the issue of the ordinance
came after a Jan. 9 meeting,
in which Barrow said the
ordinance would not stand a
challenge on constitutional
grounds.
The ordinance bans parking,
but exceptions can be grant-
ed, although the exceptions'
are not specified in the law.
"This is not a good way to
do business," Deborah
Andrews, a lawyer for
Surfrider, said Tuesday.
"They apparently know
that it [the parking ban]
needs to be fixed. Are they
just being stubborn and just
don't want to agree?"
According to the motion,
the request to reconsider the
parking ban is partly based on
"misinformation" that only
the County
Commission
was enforcing
the ban.

the task of
enforcing the

Rich calls on evi-
dence submit-

trial, which shows that
Adams granted exceptions to

boulevard, but denied park-

Town Center changes eyed
by JEFFREY MINTON
STAFF WRITER
The Neptune Mall in Town Center is
under contract to be purchased by a
prominent property owner in the com-
mercial district, according to a family
member of the mall's owner.
The office complex at 241 Atlantic
Boulevard has been owned by Louis
MacDonald for many years. But a rep-
resentative of the MacDonald family
said Thursday that the Lovett family
has a contract to purchase the proper-
ty.
Lovett is the owner of SouthCoast
Capital which owns much of the prop-
erty in Town Center the shared
Central Business District of neighbor-
ing Neptune Beach and Atlantic Beach.
"They've [the Lovett family] always
wanted this property," said Marcy
MacDonald, the daughter of Louis
MacDonald, who said that Lovett
expressed interest in purchasing the
property for many years. "I'm not sure
what they are planning to do but.
they've wanted this property for along
time."
"They possibly will want to go up [in
the height of the building]."
A representative from SouthCoast
Capital said they were not ready to
comment.
Neptune Beach city officials said,
Thursday that Rad Lovett has had a
"preliminary meeting" with the city's
community planner about the proper-
tv and the possibility of constructing a
new office complex on the parcel. No
development plans have been filed.
Some of the current tenants in the
Neptune Mall include Julia's Fine
Women's Apparel, Dowling
Construction, Thalmueller Mortgage
Company, Dunsun Real Estate Inc. and
VIA Concepts.
One city official said that some of
the tenants in the mall have been
told they must move.
Tat Chan, owner of VIA Concepts,
said Thursday that he was aware of
the pending sale but that he had not
been told to leave.

road work
costs rise
by LIZA MITCHELL
STAFF WRITER
The revised budget for a
"vital" road improvement proj-
ect will be considered at 5 p.m.,
by the Jacksonville Beach
Community Redevelopment
Agency.
The CRA last December
approved a $494,403 construc-
tion budget to complete inter-
section improvements at South
Beach and Marsh Landing
parkways.
A revised estimate was
received by city planners short-
ly after the agency's December
meeting but that amount came
in far below the lowest bid sub-
mittdd by Miranda
Contracting, Inc.
The firm submitted a bid of
$767,953 plus a' 10 percent
contingency for a total budget
revision of $844,748 -
$273,550 over the amount,
originally budgeted by the
CRA. .
"'The Marsh Landing/South
Beach Parkway is a vital proj-
ect," Planning and
Development Director Steve
Lindorff said in a Feb.; 14
.memo' to ",agency, members.
"Without the proposed project,
. the intersection is likely to
be rated [level of service El or F
by 2014."
.An initial study showed that .
the intersection was operating
at a nearly failing level in some
directions and turning move-
ments and the additional trips
from the Valencia
Condominiums and the Target
expansion will worsen condi- |
tions if the problems are_ not F
solved, Lindorff said.
-At a July planning meeting
for the project, Senior Project
Manager Paul Vetter with the
engineering firm Edwards and
Kelcey said he anticipates traf-
'fic conditions will improve
with the construction of an
additional left turn lane at
Marsh Landing Parkway where
traffic frequently backs up.:
"The two lane left will have a
protected traffic signal phase
that will stop oncoming traffic
at the green light," Vetter said.
"With the two-phase now,
vehicles in the left turn lane
have to wait for traffic [before
they can turn]."
A new signal will be added at
South Beach Parkway % -a.
Sanctuary Parkway, which will
be converted westbound into a
one-way passage.
"There is a lot of traffic com-
ing into that intersection and
in order to do that and have
enough green time, we need to
make it one way westbound,"
Vetter said. "The eastbound
traffic is very low, less than 10
cars per hour."

larger lots
in zoning
by JEFFREY MINTON
STAFF WRITER
The Atlantic Beach City
Commission Monday tenta-
tively approved the creation
of a new zoning district with
larger minimum lot sizes
which, if applied to areas
such as Selva Marina as is
intended, would "effective-
ly" prohibit lot divisions.
The commission on first
reading unanimously
approved the new district
which stipulates 10,000
square foot minimum lot
sizes. Final consideration of
the new zoning district is
scheduled Feb. 27.
If approved, the
measure would not rezone
any portion of the city. That
would require separate
action.
But the new district could
be applied to areas of the city
with larger lot sizes such as
Selva Marina to make it
harder for property owners
to subdivide their lots.
Some city commissioners
want to prevent larger lots in
such areas from being subdi-
vided because they feel it is
detrimental to their ongoing
attempts to preserve the city's
community character. The City
Commission in December
placed a moratorium on all
property subdivision until zon-
ing laws could be changed.
The city's largest residential
zoning district RS-1- requires
a minimum 7,500 square foot
lot. Areas in the city zoned RS- 1
are Oceanwalk, Selva Norte,
Royal Palms and Selva Marina.
But certain lots in Selva Marina
are substantially larger than
7,500 square feet and thus can
be divided into more lots and
still meet the minimum lot size,
per the, current code.
The proposed new district, if Church:
approved and applied to 'areas
such as Selva Marina, would
essentially eliminate lot divi- Cont. from A-1
sions in the neighborhood as
there are likely- no lots large In addition to the expanded
enough to be divided and still parish hall, the proposal calls

the land, and said it was incor-.
rect to describe the land as
"donated."
But Barfield would not say
whether the church is paying
anything for the land.
"It takes some time to dod
business transactions of this
nature," Barfield said. ,
In October, County
Commissioner Bruce Maguiire
of Ponte Vedra told The Leader
he approached the Nocatee
developers about donating a
site after the church was outbid
on a 13-acre parcel on County,
Road 210.
Maguire said -he told the
Surfrider:
Cont. from A-1
and has been quoted in the
press as admitting that it is
unconstitutional," the motion
says.
Before the two-day trial in
November, St. Johns County
commissioners were asked :'to
reaffirm the parking ban, which
allows exceptions, for service
vehicles and visitors to Ponte
Vedra Boulevard residents.
At that time, commissioners
Bruce Maguire, Cyndi
Stephenson, Jim Bryant and
Karen Stem voted to reaffirm
the ban, with Ben Rich casting
the "no" vote.
Rich claimed the law was
"discriminatory" and should
ban parking for everyone, not
just beachgoers.
"I don't believe that you can
have restrictive laws based on
safety that discriminate who
can be safe and who can be
unsafe," Rich, said in a
November interview.
"Safety laws are put into
effect to basically apply to peo-
ple across the board."
The judge ,is expected to rule
some time this month.
developers the county would
lose 13 acres of ballfields in
Cornerstone Park, land which
the county leases from the
, church, if they didn't offer the
site to the church.
"This donation was made by-
Nocatee purely because they-
know .how important. the
Cornerstone ballfields are to
the community," Maguire told
The Leader. ,
The donors are "not getting
anything from the church, and
they're not getting anything
from the county," he added..
Once the sale of the New'
Beginnings campus is com-
plete, the church will be
allowed to stay at its A1A loca-
tion for an additional two
years until. its new facilities are
ready.
Within the next couple of
months,. Barfield said, archi-
tects should complete the
design for a 45,000- to 50,000-
square-foot church, which
includes a bigger worship cen-
ter, a preschool building and a,
gymnasium.
Meanwhile, the St. Johns
County Recreation 'and Parks
Department can only stand by
and wait for the sale to finish
before any formal plans for the'
community' center can be:
made.
A wish list of whht the Ponte
Vedra Athletic Association
would like to include in the
center, has been noted by the
department, however.
That wish list includes a
swimming pool, according :to
Troy Blevins, parks operations
mangenrfor the county.
Blevins said the county's
Parks and Recreation Master
Plan calls for a community
center' in each region of the
county, each with a pool.
Barfield also said each center
should have a gymnasium, a
kitchen and classrooms for
activities such as yoga or arts
and crafts.
The church facilities current-
ly include a gym, a kitchen and
plenty of meeting, spaces,
according to Barfield, who, said
the county intends to use
those buildings.
Barfield estimated construc-
tion on the church would take
14 months to 18 months.

Jacksonville mayor
is welcome visitor
Jacksonville Mayor John Peyton will make several
appearances at the Beaches over the next couple of weeks.
He is scheduled to address the Beaches Business
Association (BBA) at noon on Monday, Feb. 27, at the
Jacksonville Beach Public Golf Course Club House, located:
at the end of South Penman Road.
Peyton was scheduled last night to address the Mayport
Navy League Council Meeting -at the Mayport Naval
Station.. ;
A Town' Hall meeting is planned on March 2. The meet-
ing is open to all and the mayor will field questions from
the audience.
Cynics might attribute the mayor's numerous appear-
ances as preparation for an upcoming re-election bid.
We, however, would simply like to welcome Peyton and
encourage the county's top administrator to be a frequent
visitor to the Beaches.

Grevy's Anatomy fiction _
there
'
s an idea
Anesthesiologists monitor, sus-
tain and manipulate all of the,
life functions of our patients
during all events in the operat-
ing room. In fact, I should point
out that ALL of the miracles of
surgery that we may now take
for granted, such as coronary
bypass, neurosurgery, cancer
surgery, transplant surgery and
limb-saving surgery (to name
just a few) have been made pos-
sible only because of advances
in the specialty of anesthesiolo-i
gy. Can one imagine having
heart bypass surgery, organ
transplantation, or a cesareanr
section without anesthesia?
The Grey's Anatomy, episode
also suggested that getting an
epidural for pain relief during
labor will increase the chance of,
the mother having a cesarean
section. Actually, the latest med-
ical literature shows there not to
be a cause-and-effect relation-
ship between epidurals and
cesarean sections. In real life,
anesthesiologists represent
patient safety. Vigilance is the
cornerstone of our profession,
perhaps more than in any other,
medical specialty.!
Anesthesiology was among the
first medical specialties to estab-'
lish a foundation (Anesthesia
Patient Safety Foundation, at
w w w A P S F. o r g
) dedi-
cated solely to patient safety -
over twenty years ago! Our mis-
sion is "To ensure that no
patient is harmed by anesthe-
sia."
Although not very visible out-.
side of the O.R. (by the very
nature of what we do), we are.
compassionate, dedicated and
skilled physicians who make
possible 100,000 quiet victories
over disease each day through
the modern miracle of anesthe-
sia.
SorinJ. Brull, MD
Ponte Vedra Beach
To the editor.
The .producers of entertain-
ment shows such as "Grey's
Anatomy" (that aired on
Sunday, February 5, 2006),
ought to be more responsible
and cognizant of the influence
that their fictional stories may,
have on the public. As a physi-
cian and anesthesiologist, I was
deeply disturbed by the depic-
tion of the anesthesiologist
who, during a "code black" situ-
ation (bomb threat) in the hos-
pital, deserted his patient and
left a young paramedic alone in
the O.R. to care for his patient.
I sincerely hope that viewers
of this show understand that
the actions of this fictional char-
acter were scripted for dramatic
effect, and not intended to rep-
resent the profession of anesthe-
siology in a realistic sense. An
anesthesiologist is probably the
least likely physician to fall
apart or "bail out" in a crisis sit-
uation. In fact, of all medical
specialists, anesthesiologists are
among the physicians with the
most rigorous training in
responding to_critical emergen-
cies it is what -we do on a daily
basis.
Our training prepares us to
act decisively in critical care and.
emergency situations. On a
more routine basis, we are asked
to (and accept) putting our-
selves at risk in the course of our
daily responsibilities, by staying
with patients during X-rays
(when everyone else leaves the
room), or by being first line
responders to yet unknown dis-
eases when emergency intuba-
tion and critical care of patients
are required.
I also would like to point out
that there is much more to the
job of the anesthesiologist than
was portrayed in this fictional
TV episode. Being an anesthesi-
ologist is not just about "breath-
ing for the patient" and "keep-
ing him under."

the cussed growths continue

For Florida homeowners,
weeds don't only represent hard

of food induectly. Per the
University of Florida, "It is esti-

United States, it is projected
that the current use of herbicide
comprises more than '60% of

Choosing Davis Park as high
school site today will cost us $
To the editor:
SMuch, debate and confusion has sunounded
the selection of a high school site for the Ponte
\"edia Beach / Palm Valley community. Residents
have expressed concern over the cost to taxpayers
and the.impact on the environment. So, what is
the real story?
Is there really a FREE site? Yes, but only one;
the 50-acre exchange proposal at Mickler 'Road
will not only provide our community with the
most desirable site east of the [ntracoastal, it will'
also come at no cost to the taxpayers. Ponte
Vedra / Palm Valley's best chance of landing a
high school east of the Intracoastal now lies in
Herb Pevton's 50-acre "fee simple" title exchange
offer with the state. Mr. Pe\ton is offering the
.state 50 acres of pristine maritime hammock (oak
trees), wetlands and lake shore for perpetual, pub-
lic protection. That is to say he is willing to deed.
the land to the state. In exchange, the state will
make 50 pine plantation acres available to build
our high school behind the new Publix shopping
center, adjacent to Mickler Road. By supporting
the Mickler Road site'now, the Davis Park site,
provided at no cost to the county as a condition
of the development's approval, will still be avail-
able years from now. If we choose to build on the,
Davis Park site now, it will end up costing the tax-
payers tomorrow. When growth in Nocatee
demands an additional high school, the county
will then be required to purchase land for anoth-
er school site. '
Who are the winners if Davis Park Site is select-
ed? Nocatee! If the Davis Park site is selected,
Nocatee would have two high schools to bookend,
its development, the existing Nease High School
and the proposed Davis Park site, which will only-
help their marketing efforts. In future years, these
two high schools will have reached capacity and
a new high school will be required. Nocatee resi-
dents will then have three high schools in their
community, west of the Intracoastal. Make no
mistake, when Nocatee is developed, it will be its
own distinct community with interests separate
from those of our beach community.
Who are the losers if Davis Park Site is selected?
Parents and children of Ponte Vedra Beach! If the
Davis Park site is selected now, it is unlikely that
Ponte' Vedra Beach / Palm Valley will ever receive
a high school in its community. Building a
school for the children of our community in
Nocatee, perpetuates, what in future years, would.
be regarded as poor planning and fiscal irrespon-
sibility. This mistake cannot be made!
How can the State and environmental groups
benefit? If the Mickler Road site is approved, the
state will get the title to 50 acres of desirable and
valuable maritime hammock and wetlands for its
conservation holdings. In exchange, the state
will allow our high school to be built on 50 acres
of less valuable and less desirable pine plantation
uplands. Clearly, the state's natural resource and
scenic beauty holdings will gain significantly
from this exchange. ,
. What should our officials be doing? The School
Board has determined that growth in our area
(Northeast St. Johns County) requires three high.
schools: one for the beach, one for Nocatee, and
one for the rapidly expanding area west and
southwest of Nocatee, which is and will continue
to be served by Allen D. Nease High School. Due
to pressing timelines, a new high school for Ponte
Vedia Beach / Palm Valley is top priority. But,
what site should Dr. Joyner and our officials focus
on pursuing? I believe they have an immediate
responsibility to support Mr. Peyton's latest offer.
School Board officials need to do -everything in
their power to get this new.Mickler Road site pro-'
posal reviewed and approved by the State. Our'
Superintendent and our elected School Board
understand the demands explosive growth makes
upon our public education system, and they must
be committed to the task of building our school
east of the Intracoastal!

Beaches are uniquely
charming due to mix
To the editor:
The "Beaches" area has lots
of charm. The variety of peo-
ple, incomes, shops, places to
eat and live and the waterways
is what makes it what it is and
leads to attract people to live
or visit here.
Please work to keep it a com-
munity for all with various
income levels as this is what
makes it such an interesting,
pleasant place to be.
I'm in favor of progress but
think there should be careful
planning so as not to lose the
availability of the beaches by
building hotels and condos all
along the beach and waterways
that only the fortunate higher
levels of income can enjoy. I
believe this could destroy what
the Beaches now has in its
favor.

added, "only a small section of

"Yuck," a nearby coworker,
not a fan of any furry crea-
ture, said as she shot Ellie and
me an accusing glance.
"And you wonder why I
don't like cats," Linda added
in disgust. "They're sneaky,
evil, conniving carnivores."
Ellie laughed out loud at the
comment. "Come on now,"
she said, shooting Linda a
"gotcha" grin. "I bet that poor
kitty was a vegetarian. She
probably just thought she was

Linda grunted a loud

Down at the local bait
and tackle shop, T.
Otis and Billy Ray
were sitting around the pot-
bellied stove on a fine frosty'
February morning. Both were
worn out from a marathon ,
session of ring toss. Nerves
were frayed and the strain of
competition was starting to
show.
Dang it! Billy Ray
exclaimed. I've got to quit for
a while, my pitching fingers
..got a cromp inthem.
I know, T. Otis followed, me
too! I wish there was some-
thing to fish for. It sure would
be nice to have a fresh fried
fish lunch.
Both men knew that trout
season was closed; the red
bass were small and lethargic,
not to mention you could
only keep one, and one little
old red rat wouldn't even fill
up Cyrus, Billy Ray's pit bull.
Plus the flounder had long
since left the area.
Sheepshead is the only
thing biting inshore. Why
don't we have a sheepshead
tournament? asked Billy Ray.
Tournament? Just the idea
of doing something competi-
tive riles T. Otis up. After all,
he and Billy Ray were tourna-
ment veterans having fished
on the Saltwater Professional
Inland Trout Trail, SPITT for
short. SPITT anglers, as it
turns out, are some of the
tougher trout fishermen out
there. Rain, wind or cold
doesn't slow them down. iBut
a closed season, well, that had
done the trick. That plus run-
ning out of chewing tobacco.
Yeah! And it won't be as
expensive to fish for -them as
it is for trout, T. Otis added. It.
will be cheap.
I only wish the El Cheapo
Sheepshead Tournament had
such a colorful start but it just
ain't so. The real truth of the
matter is that Frank Joura, a
member of the Jacksonville
Offshore Sport Fishing Club,
along with several other
members came up with the
concept as a club fundraiser.
The JOSFC has been around
since the late 1950s with one
goal in mind: Improve and
promote offshore sport fish-
ing in our area. The group has-
been quite successful at it,
too.
The El Cheapo as the tour-.
nament is referred to, pits the
number one bait stealer the
sheepshead against some
of our area's best fishermen,
or in my' case, maybe not
CAPTAIN
ROGER WALKER .
COLUMNIST
because catching sheepshead
is definitely not my forte.
If Billy Ray and T. Otis had
come up with the concept, it
probably would have been
named the Redneck Masters.
No matter, the El Cheapo is
now in its sixth year arid with
longevity comes improve-
ment.
Last year's first place prize
was $600 cash. This year it's a
boat! O.K., it's not a big boat,
but a 14-foot Bass Tracker
with a 9.9 hp Mercury four-
stroke motor and trailer is a
great prize for catching a big
sheepshead. Last year it took
an 11-pounder to win first
place. Cash is paid out to 10th
place with three mystery fish
drawings.
Now for the particulars. The
captain's meeting will be
Friday, Feb. 24 at 7:30 p.m. at
the Mavport Public Boat
Ramp in the JOSFC club-
house. Fishing is the next day
beginning at 7 a.m. Sunday is
the weather day. Around 2
p.m. Saturday the weigh-in
gets going and so will a great
fish fry. At $5 per plate, it's a
deal and you don't have to be
in the tournament to eat fish.
During the awards, the'
IOSFC will conduct a raffle.
As Frank put it, "We'll be giv-
ing away between $7,000 and
$8,000 worth of raffle prizes."
Again, you don't have to
fish to buy. raffle tickets and
have a shot at some really
great prizes.
If you d9 want to fish, the
entry fee is'a whopping $60
per boat and a Calcutta is also
available for all you hardcore
competitors like T. Otis. Last
year's tournament fielded 90
boats and this year Frank
expects well over 100. There
are even rumors of kayaks
participating this year.
Hmmm, I guess they might
just want to upgrade to a big-
ger boat by winning the tour-
nament. See ya there.

Shott shines
with Winter
Beach Run,
race victory
For the Jacksonville Track
Club, it was the 31st run-
ning of their oldest race.
For Jacksonville's Owen Shott,
it was his second victory in
two months.
The Winter Beach Run is
notorious for its .awful condi-
tions. If it isn't wind, it's rain,
or cold, or hail. Sometimes it's
all four at once. Florida's win-
ters are famous for being pleas-
ant and temperate, but the
WBR has always been hell-
bent on ruining the reputa-
tion.
After an idyllic week, the
race's traditional stormy'
weather rolled in on Saturday
less than 24 hours before the
start. But by race time at two
o'clock Sunday, the weather
was fine except for a stiff
northwesterly wind. -
Short, along with Paul
McRae, Justin Jacobs and 43-
year-old Masters runner, John
Metzger, were led out at a scin-
tillating pace by unknown
speedster from out of town.'
The speedster went out hard
and fast leaving the four locals
gasping. The WBR is two races,
a five-mile and a 10-mile, that
begin at the same time and
place and it can be hard to tell
who is in which, especially if"
you don't know them.
By looking at his quickly
disappearing back, it was
impossible to determine the
truth: Was Mystery Speedster a
five-mile or a ten-mile runner?
The first mile passed in 5:15,
the second in 5:20. After the
two and a half-mile turn-
around point, Jacobs and
Metzger fell off the pace leav-
ing Shott and McRae gallantly
chasing.
The runners, who began by
running north into the wind

the wind at their backs. At five
miles, the mystery runner
pulled off the course into the
finish-line chute.
"We didn't know he was in
the five-mile race," Shott said
after it was over. "We had to'

might be in the ten like us."
The Mystery Speedster won

tered under the name of Peter
Vail (31) of Vail, Colorado.
Very mysterious.
Shott and McRae went
through five miles in 27:19.
and were now out front and
all alone. Shott knew the race
was his. He knew that McRae
had shown up late and didn't
legally enter the race; whatever.
he ran would be invalid.
At 7.5 miles the course
turned north once more for
the final drive home, and the
wind was more unyielding
than ever.
"Our pace fell from 5:20 per
mile to 5:40s," Shott said.
Shott gutted out the speed-
sapping beach sand and unre-
lenting torrent to take the
Jacksonville Grand Prix event
in 55:26, his second victory in
two months. He also lifted the
champion's trophy in Decem-
ber's'cross-country race, The
Last Gasp.
John Metzger came through
to finish second in 56:11 with
Justin Jacobs (22) hanging on
for third in 56:12. Frank
Sutmani .(46), of Orange Park,
won the Masters (over 40)
division in 63:25.
Shott had not run the
Winter Beach Run since Feb.
2000, when he was a 19 year-
old and won it in 55:41.
The women's race winner
J.C. Pinto, who until her mar-
riage a week ago was known as
J.C. Hanley, completed the
course in 65:56. Michelle

Although just one of the 11
wrestlers who, took Nease to
region is competing, in this
weekend's state meet at the
Lakeland Center, coach Greg
Brooks deemed the 2005-06 sea-
son a successful one.
"From where they started to
where they wound up, they did
well," Brooks said Monday of
his young and somewhat inex-
perienced team, the surprising
District 3-2A champion.
Brooks' 152-pounder, Kyle

Panthers softball enjoys good start
By CHUCK ADAMS
SPORTS WRITER
It was a good start for the
revamped Panthers, softball
team Tuesday night. On the
strength of starting pitcher
Marion Holland, Nease blanked
Pedro Menendez High, 3-0, in
its home opener.
The Panthers lost five players
to graduation from last season's *
team which went 20-6 and was
nipped 1-0 in the regional quar-
terfinals.
Coach Jim Coleman .thinks
this year's team can go even far-
ther..
"If the girls stick together and
we work as a team, I think we
can go further than we did last
year. I really do," Coleman said
Tuesday following the home
victory.
Holland was also the winning
pitcher in the. seasop opener,
played at le'Frandfna "Beach,;
where the Panthers won 5-4.
The Menendez score was 1-0
when first-time varsity starter
Morgan Grailey, playing left for
the Panthers'and hitting ninth
in the batting order, 'came to the
plate with out in the second
inning and the bases loaded.
Grailev's seeing-eye single plat-
ed two runners and gave Nease a
three-run lead.
"It was a very lucky hit," said
Grailey. "Coach was very happy
with the way that I swung."'
Grailey was a courtesy runner
in the win at Femandina.
"This is my first star on varsi-
ty, so Fm very excited," she said,
then added of the squad's start,
"Our team looks great. That hit
really helped open up a lot of
things."
Grailey, who played JV soft-
ball last year, came through in
the clutch with her mother han-
dling the public-address chores,
following, in a sense, in the
footsteps of Sherry Davis, Major
League Baseball's first female
P.A. announcer With the San
Francisco Giants in the mid-
1990s, and her father assisting
in the press box. Her single off

coach Nease this season despite
the fact his last of four softball-
playing daughters had graduat-
ed 'and the athletic director who
brought him aboard, Glenn
Aspinwall, is at another school.
"I made a commitment to the
school, and I'm going to honor
.that commitment," said
Coleman. "What I want to do is
get this program to where I
think it should be, and we're
only about halfway there."
Holland, who finished last
season with. a 9-3 record and
now is 2-0, makes her next start
Feb. 25, when Cocoa, which
knocked the Panthers out of last
year's regionals, comes calling.
Manning, a sophomore who
went 11-3 for Nease last year
and pitched the 15-inning chs-
tance in the loss to Cocoa,
makes the next two starts, home
to Clay Feb. 21 and at Palatka
Feb. 23.
On, a chilly night for softball,
Holland; who plans to sign a let-
ter of intent Feb. 22 to take her
pitching skills to Emory
University, talked about this
year's prospects.
"We have a
ME very tough
schedule," .'she
said. "We aren't
really playing
any bad teams.
One of our
biggest rivals is
going to be
Cocoa, because
they put us out
of the regionals
the last two
S 3 years." '
Cocoa also
0 knocked Nease
out in the first
game of the 2004 regionals,
winning 16-10.
"I think as long as we play
well and don't have any errors,
we'll do fine," Holland said of
this year's team.
The right-hander has adapted
easily to the increased pitching
distance from the previous 40
feet.
"I actually like 43 a lot more,"
said Holland. "All. our pitches
have moved a lot more. It gives
them more time to curve or rise
or whatever you're throwing.
And the fact that college is 43
feet. So you don't have to worry
about the adjustment period in
college."
Coleman was pleased with
Holland's performance.
"Marion is a changed kid," he
said. "She went out there with
confidence. Last year she had all
the stuff, but she didn't have the
confidence." :
As to Holland pitching from
43 feet, the Nease coach said,
"She's pitching it, and she's
doing very well. She did
extremely well against
Femandina Beach, a good team.
Tonight she did an excellent
job. I'm very pleased.
"Her next start is going to be
against Cocoa, and that's going
'to tell us something about her.".
Along with' Grailey and
Dowd, there were other, new
faces in the Nease starting line-
up. One was that of Kaley King,
Panthers second
baseman Kayley

ing Tuesday
night's game

a transfer from the Orlando
area.
"She came in, natural second
baseman, going to really help
us," said Coleman.
King and Dowd give Nease a
new double-play combination,
replacing Jackie Coleman and
Tara Permenter.
"She's another one who just
showed up," Coleman said of.
Dowd. "We're happy with that."'
Junior right fielder Faren
Lemaster played JV softball last
year.
"Faren has really worked hard,"
said Coleman. "She's got to get
her confidence up. The tools aje
there. \,W.hether we ever get her
where she believes that, 'Hey, I
belong out here with this team,'
time will tell."
Another transfer, this one from
Tennessee, is Lauren Gallimore, a
late-inning pinch hitter for
Lemaster.
One of the key's to last year's
success, outfielder Clare Wamsley,
is out with mononucleosis.
"We need Clare," said
Coleman. "Hopefully she'll get
back. She'll put some more pop
in the bat. And she's the fastest
kid on the team."

Plant placement
key to landscaping
Valentine's Day has
come and gone and
instead of receiving
one of the items I suggested,
an unusual bouquet or a
flowering tree, my son-in-
law chose to give just a
rather insignificant gift to
my daughter a 10 day
cruise!
Now, how's that for a
great son-in-law. I wonder if
they'd like the company of
in-laws?
.I hope your Valentine's
Day was as nice, but that
one is hard to top.
So, I am moving on to
something that will take my
mind off such luxury and
relaxation and will talk
today about what a lot of us
will be doing in a few weeks,
but now is the time to think
it through.
I imagine many of us will
be' smitten by the re-land-
scaping bug, or at least by
the "ooh, isn't this pretty, I
wonder where we can put
it" bug. As the weather
warms up, we all head to
the colorful plants and
there's hardly a person that
doesn't come out with
something to grace his yard.
So, I want to remind you
of a few landscaping secrets,
guidelines, if you will, that
will make your selection and
placement of the plant a
good one that will come to
enhance your property
rather than detract from it.
It does not take a rocket
scientist to recognize a
pleasing landscape, one that
compliments the home
within its surroundings,
rather than be a jarring eye-
sore.
Now don't get me wrong.
Landscaping is an art and
since it is constantly chang-
ing i because of the plants'
growth,) the proper selec-
tion of and then placement
of the chosen plant material
is what makes or breaks the
overall longtime appeal.
Your yard will either
become a jumble with no
structure, or it will grow to
be a very pleasing palette
making your home stand
out as a jewel. Your home is
a big investment; proper
landscaping will only
increase its value.
Let me start out by saying
that if you have tall trees
behind your house, you are
indeed very' lucky because
they form a perfect back-
drop for any home. The
home looks "nestled in"
right from the start. You are
a few steps ahead from the
get-go. *
Every home should have
some tall trees behind it so
that from the street you can
see something green above
the roofline; it might have
to be close to the rear cor-
ners of your house or prop-
erty, but it always is a plus
to plant some evergreen or
deciduous trees that will
grow to be 50 feet or more
in the rear.
That having been said, let
me continue with the focus
on the front of the home.
The focus of today's article
will be on the landscaping
of the front yard of brand
new homes.
There are homes where it
is obvious that the contrac-
tor is beating the clock and
so to get the structures up in
a hurry, he "clear-cuts" the
land, removing every piece
of vegetation on the proper-
ty, quickly builds the home,
and then plants the perfunc-

Recorders: Not child's play
by JOHNNY WOODHOUSE
ASSOCL4TE EDITOR
Remember that plastic recorder your son or daughter
bo'uight h'dtna from ritusic class in the fourth grade?
You know the one. It's green or beige, comes with a plastic
sheath and collects dust in the dark recesses of your musically-
challenged child's backpack.
Ever wonder what one really sounds like?
You're in luck. The Beaches Fine Arts Series
is hosting one of the world's most innova-
tive and exciting recorder consorts, the
Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet, Sunday
at St. Paul's By the Sea Episcopal Church in
Jacksonville Beach.
The 3:30 p.m. concert is free and open to the
public.
According to its Web site, the Dutch ensemble,
which has been performing since 1978, plans to
take the audience on a "furious rollercoaster ride
through the world of sounds, combing tradition and
avant-garde, serious works and musical tidbits" in a
program called "Suites & Sweets."
The quartet may even break out its unusual arrange-
ment of a Stevie Wonder song that earned them the grand
prize at a music competition in Belgium 1981.
But you won't catch them playing one of those $5 plas-
tic recorders. According to their biography, "the group has
assembled a unique collection of more than 100
Renaissance, Baroque and modern recorders, ranging from
the 8-inch soprano to the sub-contrabass, which measures
more than 9 feet."
Founding member Karel van Steenhoven says the sub-
contrabass in B flat is "the largest in the world at this
moment."
Co-founder Daniel Bruggen plays the tenor recorder, while
Daniel Koschitzki and Andrea Ritter play alto and soprano
recorders, respectively.
The smaller the recorder, the higher the range. The larger,
the lower. .,' -
Recorders have been used as introductory musical instru-
ments in- American schools for years and have been part of
European musical history since the 13th century.
.Bach and Handel were two Baroque.-composers whd featured
the recorder.
Koschitzki, who wrote a detailed history of the recorder
quartet on the group's website, says recorder ensembles date
back to the Renaissance period.
"They were mainly used to enhance the tiibre 'inensembles
and orchestras."
A forerunner to the flute, the recorder is a simple
instrument with a blowhole, a thumb hole and sev-
eral finger holes.
Koschitzki said the recorder was rediscovered in
S'the early 1920s, followed by a revival of the recorder
quartet.
In 1974, the Tokyo Recorder Quartet preceded
the Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet as the first
professional recorder ensemble.
But Koschitzki says the Dutch group "created
an international awareness for the recorder quar-
tet as a serious ensemble formation." .
In the hopes of fostering the formation of more
recorder quartets, the group will host'a master class
for area recorder players at 6 p.m. Monday at the
church at 1150 5th St. N.
The group will also perform at noon NMonday at
the Mayo Clinic's Kinne Auditorium, and for ele-
mentary school students at 10 a.m. Tuesday at St.
Paul's.
The Mayo Clinic concert is,presented in collabo-
ration with the hospital's Humanities in Medicine
Program and the Beaches Fine Arts Series Inc.
Princess Rashid is the visual artist for this
month. Her media is acrylics. For more details

Artist wants her students
to jump-start their brains
by KATHY HARTMAN
PONTE I'EDRA LEADER EDITOR
Rachel Cruzan of Ponte Vedra Beach wants
each of her art students to jump-start the right
side of his or her brain before getting started
on a watercolor.
"The object of my instruction is to enlarge
their vision," Cruzan said this week as she pre-
pared for an art show today at Our Lady Star of
the Sea Catholic Church, Ponte Vedra.
Drawing on a book by Betty Edwards,,'
"Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain,"
Cruzan said she has managed to bring out the
artist in persons with a range of talent and
experience, among them disabled children.
A former teacher of French, English and art,
she said enlarging one's vision is a step toward
translating something into a work of art.
,"The better they really see it, the better they
can translate," she said.
Some of Cruzan's works will be displayed at
today's show at Our Lady Star of the Sea, where
she and another Ponte Vedra artist, Rita
Bucciarelli, each teaches an art class for seniors.
Both classes are part of the seniors group at
Our Lady, Senior Connection, which meets
monthly at the church on State Road A1A.
Bucciarelli, who teaches painting in acrylics,
said this week that she is "very proud" of her
15 students, who meet Tuesdays at the church.
"I'm just thrilled with the class, and I'm hav-
ing a good time," she said.
She expects about 50 of her students' works
to be displayed today, she said.
' She said she asked her students to show
some of their early works as well as some more
recent, telling them, "I want them [visitors] to
see how you have progressed."
"They've come a long way," Bucciarelli said.
One of Bucciarelli's students, Carol Richardt,
said she enjoys the class, which she joined in
November.
"It's very relaxing, and Rita is very informa-
tive," Richardt said. "She gives you little help-
ful hints and hopefully you can apply them."
Bucciarelli said the art lessons, which are
free, are a ministry for Senior Connection,
which is open to any Beaches senior, regardless
of religious affiliation.
In addition to monthly group meetings,
smaller groups meet for interests such as art les-
sons, card-playing, line dancing and exercise.
Membership in Senior Connection is $5
annually. For membership information, call
Cheryl Knorek at 543-1139 or e-mail Kathy at
kfrietfyahoo.com.
Today's meeting begins at 10 a.m. at the cul-
tural center at the back of the church.
Rachel Cruzan, who teaches watercolor painting at Our Lady
Star of the Sea in Ponte Vedra, holds one of her works in
progress. Over the mantle hangs one of her completed works.

Matheson: Bones, curves, unity and depth
For the Kids
Cont. from B-1
tory three or four skinny trees
and a row of some scraggly
shrubs' along the front of the
house before plopping a for
sale sign up. I Will say no
more, but suffice it to say,
these builders must be in
cahoots with the nursery
industry and landscape archi-
tects. And, this occurrence is
not just in the starter home
categories, since the new mil-
lion dollar homesites have
also been bulldozed clean.
Can you relate?
My current home was the
result of this so I can relate
completely...in fact, I never
could understand why my
husband selected this yard
when he knew my feelings
about this naked-landscape
look. He told me it was "my
gardening challenge." After 10
years, it is better, but still a
work in progress.
By the way, Jacksonville has
a tree ordinance which tries (
by imposing a large fine) to
prevent builders from taking
down "specimen" trees, those
like the huge live oaks and
you'll see colored tags circling
the ones that are to be kept.
The lousy part of this tree
ordinance in my opinion, is
that except for the specimen
trees, the builder can remove
absolutely everything and
then be mandated to replace
it all with only a few trees
having a trunk diameter
nowhere close to the ones he
cut down.
Makes me positively sick to
be honest with you. If you are
contemplating building and
found your "gorgeous lot",
think about selecting trees.
you want to remain on it
regardless of their size, and
tag them yourself....and then
be there the days the bulldoz-
er is working on your lot.
Moving on, there are a few
guidelines to landscaping.
Hopefully, they will make
sense to you! The basic struc-
ture of a landscape requires
what I call bones. Once they
have been determined and
planted, the rest is a piece of
"cake.
Remember that I am basi-
call)' talking about new
homes that have close to
nothing on their property
except the dwelling/garage
'which is usually attached to
the home. Those of you who
live in places like Sawgrass
and Marsh Landing probably
already have the "bones"
because the builders had the
foresight ands guts to leave
the trees.
We are going to start with'
this funky word that I hope
you'll remember.. .bonies. Our
bones give our body structure,
trees(or fairly large plant
material, but not necessarily,
literally, a tree) give a land-
scape its structure,
Look at your house from
across the street so you can
see the big picture; then look
at it's corners. Usually, a
tree/large plant placed in each
outside corner of the property,
that being closest to the
street, will be the first set of
bones. They can be in there
form of a tree, a clump of
trees, a shrub that will create a
large space, such as a crape
myrtle, or a cluster of skinny
palms or possibly one full
palm.
The tricks are not to place
'them in an absolutely identi-
cal line, nor should they ever
be placed right next to a side-
walk or the road, but about 5-
7 feet inside. They should be
the same type of plant. So far,
so good.
2. Bones
established.....place a broom
handle or garbage can in each
of these spots in the yard
knowing what kind of plant
they'll represent..
Then, as you look at the,
house and yard from the road,
now concentrate your vision
on the front corners of the
I 0x lop

Groaw Ja0 Bact~o9oalo

house itself. This is where the
second set of bones will go.
Two are out at the edges of
your lot somewhat close to
the street, and 2 are at basical-
ly either end of your struc-
ture, which may or may not
include the garage, but proba-
bly it will be the furthest
point.
Since you have propped up
a broom handle, or some other
helping tool, you can now see
if the front looks crowded or
if it is ok. I have found that
where there is a very shallow
front yard, it is best to elimi-
nate a Bone or two in order to
avoid a closed in look.
We are not wanting the
house to look lost, just nicely
highlighted. And, I must say,
this is one topic that is
extremely difficult to write
about; it is much, much easier
to be on the spot and giving
advice. Overcrowding creates
a very jumbled look, and
should be avoided so as you
plan, err on the sparse side;-
you can always add plant
material.
Moving on from the
BONES, the next guideline is
to work not on "curb appeal",
but on "CURVE APPEAL"!
Straight lines are out, curving
lines are in......but unlike
fashion trends, this concept is
not a passing fancy but a
binding guideline. From an
artistic standpoint, most all
houses are angular, and most
contractors put in the per-
functory shrubs in a straight
line along the foundation
walls of the house. Every
place there is a turn in the
house, there is an abrupt halt
of our vision.
Landscaping should be
flowing, and curves of beds,
of sidewalks, of driveways, etc.
help achieve that. So I want
you to add some CURVE to
your straight line of founda-
tion shrubs.
How? The easiest way is by
turning the end of the line
into an elongated lollipop!
And in that lollipop part,
plant a lovely crape myrtle, a
flowering cherry tree, a large
ligustrum, some sort of accen#
plant that is a bit'tafldr atc d'
slightly different in shape and
texture from the foundation
shrubs. Do the same on the
far opposite comer, remem-
bering that this may be as far
away as your garage. You do
not want to close in the foun-
dation beds to the right and
left of your front door, but to
mimic the feature from a dis-
tance away draws the eye to a
large palette of continuity.
Curve appeal and
bones......you are off to a
great start!
Drive around some neigh-
borhoods and get ideas if
what I am talking about
just doesn't make any sense
to you; you will see the bones
and the curves, and you'll
easily see a jumbled mess or a.
neat, interesting flow of
plants.
By the way, a hose makes a
very handy tool in forming
curves. Just play with it on
the ground and let it undulate
like a meandering stream.
A third guideline is a big
beef of mine, and it is called
"UNITY".
Here's an example and I
think you'll know what I
mean: a homeowner likes a
burgundy shrub called
Loripetulum, a variegated one
called Pittisporum, and a third
one which is a green and yel-
low Ligustrum.
Planted on'one side of the
front of his house is the
Loripetulum in a staright line
and next to it, also in the
same line, is the Pittisporum.
On the other side of the
house by itself is the green
and yellow Ligustrum. Now
stand back at the street and
look at this house. Do you see
unity? Do your eyes just flow
easily from one side to the
next, or as they flow, do they
find obstacles? Mine find
obstacles.. .blockades.. .chunks
of color but not a flow or uni-
fied sight.
Pretty burgundy, wavy
branches then plop, a nasty
green and white pittisporum.
And on the other side there is
just a line of scraggly yellow
and green ligature. What a
mish moshl Furthermore, at
the end of one side is a River
Birch tree and at the end of
the other side is a Cabbage
Palm. I truly hope that in
your mind you can see that
this is just plain UGLY!! There
is no unified appearance, no
continuity, no flow, nope,
nothing pleasing about any of
it.
What should he do? First,
unless the house is enormous,
the River Birch and the Palm
as corner plants, are way too
big and should be removed. If
that is not an option, some
careful pruning of each proba-
bly will be necessary to bring
them more into proportion
with the house. If they can
both be removed, replacing
them with much smaller iden-
tical bushes of some kind
would be ideal.
Then the homeowner needs
to scrutinize the 3 varieties of
shrubs he's using and decide
which one he really likes best.
By removing the other 2 vari-
eties, he is then able to make
a continuous line of the same
shrub from one comer of the
house to the other far corner,
jumping the sidewalk. Both
sides should mimic each other
in color and type of shrub;
this creates balance and unity.
When making the decision
l afoiuthich 'tihbto keep;
thinkk about whih.orie ;
accents your house the pretti-
est.
Color and busyness of the
bush are important; is the
house a solid color or is it
mottled as brick would be?
Usually, a solid block of color i
is more likely to be enhanced
by a variegated shrub than the'
brick would be. Yellow and
green bushes don't do any-
thing for a red brick house
except to add more clutter.
Know what I mean?
So, at this point, you should
have a long line of the same
shrub next to the house, but
are needing a plant in the lol-
lipop to create a curve at the
end of each side. This plant
should be the same on each
end and should be no taller
than 2/3 the height of the
house. This is the spot where
a bush ligustrum, a medium
sized crape myrtle, a clump of
philodendron, a cluster of
frilly palm can be planted. It
is part of the Bone structure
and both ends should be of
the same plant. OK?
Standing back you now can
see things taking shape, but
you aren't quite done.
You are well on the path of,
proper landscaping at this
point using Bones, Curves and
Unity. However, there is one
more element that is often
"Don't let
your computer
drive you mad"

neglected and it makes a huge
difference to the overall effect.
Its name is DEPTH. All
foundation plantings look
best if they have something
planted in front of them at a
slightly lower height. It is
common to see green vibur-
num with azaleas in front,
holly bushes with gardenia
bushes in front, India
Hawthorne with monkey
grass in front, burgundy
loripetulum with white bego-
nia annuals in front, etc.
Sometimes you even see 3
steps of height, each trimmed
like stepping stones to make
different levels. This type of
layering for depth is very
important. It adds interest, it
draws the eye to the house,
and it allows for you to exhib-
it some creativity if you are a
flower lover because the low-
est level is the best one to add
flowers to.
So, always think in terms of
having a minimum of 2 levels
of bushes next to your foun-
dation. Pick bushes that will
compliment each other in tex-
ture and color, and that will
compliment the house's color
as well.
I have given you lot to
think about and try to grasp.
Often it helps if you take
rides, looking fo[ some of the
principles I've pointed out in
other people's landscapes.
Take photos of yards you
like to help you with your
own.
Trust me, after a few times,
you'll easily see the ones that
are good and the ones that do
not have bones in their basic
structure, do not have depth
in their shrubbery, do not
allow the eye to flow along
graceful curves, or are simply
a jumble of "stuff."
Pick up a book or 2 at
Home Depot or Lowe's that
helps you with ideas for
planting using the principles
I've outlined. You may not
want to duplicate the picture,
but it might give you a good
comfort level so you can get
yours started.
I recognize that this is a dif-
ficult topic to write about so
that you can envision what 1
am trying to say. If you need
me to talk with vou, just call
me at 363-9872. I cannot
come out to look at your
property, but we might be
able to come to some conclu-
sions by sharing thoughts.
The most common mistake.
is to overplant, so start slowly,
one step at a time, one care-
fully-thought-out dollar at a
time!
The Cooperative Extension
Service ( 387-8850) has several
handouts on landscaping, or
you can go onto the web. I've
attempted to condense the
many pages of some of these
handouts so you won't get
bogged down.
And if It makes you feel any
better, I am supposed to know
enough to have a perfect
landscape from all aspects, ,
right? Well, guess what, I
don't, and frankly, I don't
really want to because what
then could I fuss with when I
want to work outside?!
We are all works in progress,
just like our landscapes, so
keep that attitude when you
get frustrated. Have a good
week.
Call me at 363-9872 if I can
be of help, except that I am
not able to come to your
house.

Not content to portray a

Davis, star of ABC's

roles in children's media..
Davis and her group claim
that female roles are rare in
recent animated films, and
that for every speaking female

CONTRIBUTOR
Is it man's lot to be unhap-
py? Judging by many classic
flicks, it seems an axiom. Now
a near classic, "Tristan and
Isolde," has joined the long
list of films that seemingly
reinforces this gloomy view of
humanity's fate.
A tragic legend from
England's dim past, it even
inspired a Wagnerian opera.
'Tristan and Isolde" is an epic
that's also a great date movie -
but bring lots of hankies. It's a
film sure to bring tears!
"Tristan and Isolde" opens
with 8th-century England in'
desperate turmoil. The era of
Roman rule and brutality has
vanished, but so have their
order and security. England is
torn by petty internal strife,
and Irish raiders regularly steal
women and slaughter the
populace.
During a clan parley aimed
at uniting Britannia against
the Irish, disaster strikes. Their
enemies storm in, killing
Tristan's father. The 9-year-old
is saved by aspiring king Rufus
Sewell, who loses a hand in
the fray.
Despite the grievous wound,
Sewell ("Extreme Ops," "A
Knight's Tale") adopts young
Tristan (Jlames Franco) and
takes him in as an 'adopted
nephew. The story picks up
again when Franco (the
"Spider Man" series, "City by
the Sea") is 18: he's tapped to
bait an ambush against Irish
invaders.
ho Youth always has more
ens heart than brains; Franco
g throws himself into the melee.
asy Choosing the Irish champion
to battle, he loses and is
placed on a funeral barge.
e But Franco isn't dead; he's
merely suffering the effects of
1), poison from the Irish champi-
Pitt on's sword.

As always.. .Service in HOURS, not Days
He drifts unconscious for
days, finally arriving on
Ireland's hostile shore. There
he's found and nursed back to
health by Isolde (Sophia
Myles), and they fall in love.
Ms. Myles ("Underworld,"
"From Hell") is a princess; her
faithful maid cautions her
identity should remain secret.,
Knowing their love is hope-
less, Franco sadly sails back to
England.
SSoon after, the political
winds shift. Ms. Myles, father
decides to marry her off to the
English as the prize in a fake
alliance. A tournament's held,
and Franco unknowingly wins
Ms. Myles' hand for foster
father Sewell.
Though "Tristan and Isolde"
is a two-hankie flick, bloody
battle scenes abound in this
PG-13, 125-minute movie.
Kevin Reynolds; ("Robin Hood:
Prince of Thieves,"
"WaterWorld") does a fine job
directing this authentic-
appearing period piece.
The fine battle choreogra-
phy may have been the brain-
child of co-executive produc-
ers Ridley Scott ("Gladiator,"
the "Alien" series) and brother
Tony ("Top Gun"). With a
minuscule ad budget and an
off-base publicity campaign,
Ridley has made no secret of
unhappiness with 20fh
Century Fox.
Dean Georgaris ("The
Manchurian Candidate")
wrote the screenplay and did a
fine job.'
"Tristan and Isolde"
(www.tristanandisoldemovie.c
om) is excellent, but due to
the strategic planning errors
already mentioned, it'll soon
be forgotten.
You, however, shouldn't,
miss it in theaters. It's one of
the few flicks lensed in recent
years that'll move even the
strongest man!

Wolf to speak on -Angels and
Dreams' at Chabad Beaches
by KATHY NICOLETTI
STAFF WRITER
Rabbi Laibl Wolf, an inter-
nationally recognized authori-
ty on Jewish mysticism, spiri-
tuality and meditation, is
scheduled to speak in Ponte
Vedra afid Jacksonville next
month.
In Ponte Vedra, he is sched-
uled to speak on "Angels and
Dreams," and in Jacksonville,
he will speak on Kabbalah.
Kabbalah is "a spiritual
interpretation of the Torah,"
said Rabbi Shmuli Novack of
Southside Chabad, sponsors of
Wolf's lecture at the
University of North Florida in
Jacksonville.
"So many people want to
know what Kabbalah genuine-
ly is," Novack said. "They,
: want a genuine spiritual expe-
rience."
"Kabbalah is Jewish mysti-
cism. True Jewish mysticism is
based wholly on the Torah,
the practical guidebook of I
Judaism, and the lifestyle that
it mandates."
Wolf, founding lecturer in
Jewish mysticism and spiritu-
ality at Melbourne University
in Australia, will speak at UNF
March 1 and at Chabad @ the
Beaches in Ponte Vedra March
2.
I nolo submir1ed
Rabbi Laibl Wolf to speak at
the University of North Florida
March 1.
In addition to being an
ordained rabbi, Wolf is a
lawyer and an educational
psychologist, according to a
press release from Chabad Ca'
the Beaches.
He is the author of the
best-selling book, "Practical
Kabbalah," as well as a series
of meditation and self-mastery
audio visual materials.
Wolf refers to his lectures as
"spiritual adventures." He
applies the message of .
Kabbalah to the daily chal-
lenges of life, according to the
news release, and his teach-
ings.emphasize personal ful-
fillment through growth and
emotional mastery.
At UNF's University Center
at 7 p.m. March 1, Wolf's
topic will be "The Kabbalah of
Mind Yoga."
Wolf will speak about
ancient Judaism's contribu-
tion to Eastern practices such
as yoga, the potential for med-
itation to heal body and soul
and ways to develop a com-
passionate heart, according to
the release.
On March 2 at 7 p.m., Wolf
will speak at Chabad @t the
Beaches on angels and
dreams.
"These are two very fasci-
nating phenomena that we
deal with," said Rabbi
Nochum Kurinsky of Chabad
@ the Beaches.
"People know that in
Judaism we believe in angels
but don't know what we
believe or why we believe in
angels."
"There is a folklore about
dreams and interpreting
dreams. There is a mystical
and spiritual element to
dreams," he said.
A dinner and reception will
be held on at 6 p.m. prior to
Briefs: 'African Drum Cafe' set Sundal
Cont. from B-6

Snoring: It's A Problem Worth Solving!
It is estimated that up to 50% of adults have some snoring
disorder. Snoring not only robs you of the rest you need, it
also robs those closest to you. You both wake up tired, and
often feel irritable and sluggish during the day.
What Causes Snoring?
When you're asleep, the muscles and soft tissues in your
throat and mouth automatically relax. The lower jaw and
tongue drop back, helping block and decrease the airway
opening. Snoring is also affected by diet, health, lifestyle,
age, weight, environment and other factors.
The Solution, is a small oral appliance professionally fitted
by a dentist. It has a unique inner lining that is softened by
the heat during the fitting process keeping the airway open,
effectively relieving the main cause of snoring
