Again: "fresh water' on
ANGELA DAUGHTRY
News-Leader
Local residents packed City
Hall Tuesday night, mostly to sup-
port a resolution urging freshwater
restoration of Egans Creek
Greenway. And city commissioners
were convinced they should expe-
dite the process of converting it
back to fresh water.
The commission voted 5-0 to
urge the St. Johns River Water
Management District to expedite
restoration of the wetlands south of
Jasmine Street where trees are
dying, possibly from saltwater
intrusion.
Commissioner Ron Sapp com-
mended residents for "taking own-
ership" of the issue, saying, "I knew
we needed a citizenry to move the
Greenway forward."
The wetlands south of Jasmine
Street, part of Egans Creek
Greenway, were altered in 2003 by

Schools
to teach
evolution
'theory'
GLENDA S. JENKINS
News-Leader
The state Board of Education
has approved revised science
Sunshine State Standards to incor-
porate the theory, if not the fact, of
evolution into the school curricu-
lum.
In a 4-3 vote Tuesday the board
approved insertion of the terms
"scientific theory" and "law of' evo-
lution in "all appropriate areas
throughout the document," the
Florida Department of Education
said.
Board members Donna
Callaway, Akshay Desai and Robert
Martinez voted against the meas-
ure, objecting to the addition of the
terms "scientific theory" and "law
of" to the revised standards.
Board members Phoebe
Raulerson, Kathleen Shanahan and
Linda Taylor voted to approve the
revised standards with the added
terminology.
Board Chairman Talmadge W.
Fair cast the deciding vote to break
the tie.
The revised standards drew
debate after several North Florida
school districts, including Nassau
County's, passed resolutions oppos-
ing the revised standard's presen-
tation of evolution as fact
Nassau Schools Superintendent
John Ruis said the vote leaves ques-
tions'about how the modification
to the standards will affect science
instruction.
"I'm not really sure what exact-
ly that means now as far as practice
and instruction," he said, explaining
that the "impact on the delivery of
instruction and on what will be pre-
sented instructionally is not clear."
Ruis declined to say if the
board's actions satisfied him. "I
would like more time to see what
(the decision) really means with
regard to instruction."
A committee that included edu-
cators, scientists, business leaders
and school administrators began
developing the standards in May
following a drafting and review
process.
The DOE convened five public
hearings throughout the state in
addition to reviewing 20,000 com-
ments received via the Internet.
During the Tuesday hearing opin-
ions of the 20 members of the pub-
lic who addressed the board were
split equally in favor of and opposed
to the revised standards as pre-
sented to the board.
School districts will align their
science curriculum to the revised
standards begifining in the 2008-9
school year. The Florida
Comprehensive Assessment Test
will test students on the material
in 2012.

Student finds 'new language,
new friends, new life' in U.S.
GLENDA S. JENKINS
News-Leader
Some phrases are distinctly
American.
, Kevyn Melon, an exchange stu-
dent from Belgium, has become
par ticularly comfortable with one.
"It was cool," he likes to say
when asked his opinion about
things.
But more than refining his abil-
ity to speak and understand
English, being an exchange stu-
dent to the U.S. has fostered his
independence and self-sufficiency,
he said.
"It's pretty frightening to leave
your family for a whole year.... You
don't have a mother or father. You
are alone," Kevyn said. "You learn
I I I1 I I I III I I II
I 1 11 . I I
to live with that and it's alright."
The U.S.' "is pretty different
from my country," he said. Here,
"everything is big." The downtown
of a big city is "pretty compact in
Europe... .You can drive every-
where."
Another difference, particular
to being in Florida, is the weather.
Christmas day, "I was on the beach"
rather than in snow, he said.
Part of becoming acclimated has
meant interpreting the Southern
drawl and translating slang used
by students. As a native French
speaker, his accent has proved dif-
ficult for some to understand.
"Now I have a little bit American
accent," he said.
More than Kevyn's accent has
changed since arriving in the U.S.

"My idea of United States was what
I saw in the movie," he wrote via
email. "I didn't know really how
United States was. In fact, I dis-
covered almost everything when I
arrived here."
He has learned that not every-
one has a large house. 'There are
also a lot of people who live in small
houses and who don't have a lot of
money,"
And body types also vary more'
than he realized. He thought that
"almost everyone was fat because
people don't eat very healthy here.
It is a little bit true but there are less
fat people than what I was think-
ing," Kevyn wrote.

Women's study. Waist size matters
NEW ORLEANS Middle-
aged women's waists aren't the
only thing that increased in the
last decade. So did their chance
of stroke. In a new study report-
ed at the American Stroke
Association's International Stroke
Conference 2008, rising obesity
rates have been linked to more
strokes among women ages 35 to
54.
A previous analysis of stroke
prevalence rates in the United
States from 1999 to 2004 revealed
that women in their midlife years
were more than twice as likely as
men of similar age to report hav-
ing had a stroke, said Amytis
Towfighi, M.D., an assistant pro-
fessor in the Neurology
Department at the University of
Southern California in Los
Angeles, Calif.
To determine if this was a new
phenomenon and to explore the
potential contributions of vascular
risk factors to stroke prevalence
rates, researchers arnalyzedldata
from the National Health and
Nutrition Surveys 1988-94
(NHANES Ill) and 1999-4. They
found that while 1.79 percent of
women ages 35 to 54 who partici-
pated reported having stroke,
only 0.63 percent of women the
same ages
who partici-
pated in the
earlier sur-
vey reported
stroke.
The
analysis
compared medical history vari-
ables (including smoking, dia-
betes mellitus, heart attack, high
blood pressure), medication
usage, and clinical markers.
Those included waist circumfer-
ence, body mass index, total cho-
lesterol, low density lipoprotein
cholesterol (LDL- also known as
bad cholesterol), and blood pres-
sure.
"We did not find significant dif-
ferences in presence of conven-
tional cardiovascular risk factors,
such as blood pressure, total cho-
lesterol, LDL, smoking, heart dis-
ease, high blood pressure or dia-
betes, when we compared the
two groups," said Towfighi, lead
author of the study.
Instead, women in the more
recent survey were more likely to
be using medications to control
blood pressure and cholesterol.-.
In fact, 14.8 percent reported
using medications to lower blood
pressure, compared to 8.9 per-
cent in the earlier survey.
"Women in NHANES 1999-4
were significantly more obese
than women a decade prior, with
an average BMI of 28.67 kg/m2
versus 27.11 kg/m2 the decade
prior," Towfighi said. BMI of 25.0
to 30.0 is considered overweight,
while BMI of 30.1 or more is con-
sidered obese.
"In addition, women in
NHANES 1999-4 had an average
waist circumference of nearly 4
centimeters more than women in
the earlier study," Towfighi said.
Women in the later study also
had higher average glycated
hemoglobin (an indicator of poor
blood sugar control).
The researchers concluded
that although key traditional risk
factors, such as high blood pres-
sure, may not be higher today
than in the '90s, obesity and
blood sugar markers are on the
increase.
"Abdominal obesity is a
known predictor of stroke in
women and may be a key factor
in the midlife stroke surge in
women," Towfighi said. "This
study highlights the need to
'intensify efforts in curbing the
.-,!obesity epidemic in the United
States."

They went through boxes of
records already placed in a coun-
ty storage facility, assisted by the
county's records specialist
Debbie Moody, and did not find
certain missing records. Moody
confirmed that in a story on page
1A Wednesday. Seagraves said
he misunderstood information
relayed to him and inadvertently
provided inaccurate information
in that story.

ing "worried" because the political
situation remained unresolved, he
said. 'They were talking maybe to
cut my country into two parts."
Ultimately, the two regions
agreed to remain one country.
The Rotary Club of Fernandina
Beach is the sponsor club that
brought Kevyn to Amelia Island
through Rotary International. Club
president Jennifer Towles and
Furman Clark arranged Kevyn's
visit to Amelia Island.
Sponsoring inbound and out-
bound exchange students helps
them become more culturally
diverse and, as more students "actu-

it promotes world peace," Towles
said, one of the club's objectives.
Kevyn has lived with two local
host families since his arrival in
August. Doug and Jody Mackle
hosted the exchange student for
three months after he arrived in
Fernandina. He will live with the
Cottles of Amelia Island until he
departs in June.
Deb Cottle has been in Rotary
about 10 years. "I just thought that
would be a good experience," she
said about having her family host an
exchange student. Now, "We're
going to learn French."
Kevyn recommends becoming
an exchange student. The benefits
have been a "new language, new
friends, new life," Kevyn said.
When he returns home he will
study pharmacy. Then Kevyn wants
to come back to the U.S. to work.

Egans Creek 'stands-alone
ANGELA DAUGI HTRY Sadler Road to preserve as wet- the parcel appraised, but th
News-Leader lands for the Greenway park sys- appraisal is "nowhere near wha
Fernandina Beach Commis-
sioners voted unanimously
Tuesday to designate Egans Creek
Greenway a "stand-alone basin"
within the Northeast District of the
St. Johns River Water Management
District.
The designation would prevent
the basin from being developed
because it -cannot be "traded"
through mitigation for wetlands in
another part of the district.
City Attorney Tammi Bach
noted that, with the new designa-
tion, Egans Creek would be its own
mitigation basin, and "not looked at
as a regional basin."
'There will be no cross mitiga-
tion if it's a stand-alone basin," she
said.
The part of the Greenway
between Atlantic Avenue and
Jasmine Street was restored in
2003 from a freshwater wetlands to
a saltwater wetlands as part of a
mitigation project for highway con-
struction in Duval County.
The city is also considering pur-
chase of a 2.76-acre parcel on
tem. Leon Perpall, owner of the
parcel, has been in the process of
developing the land for a hotel site.
Perpall has already received
permits from the St. Johns River
Water Management District and
the Army Corps of Engineers, and
is going before the city Board of
Adjustment in March for a vari-
ance hearing to fill in the wetlands.
Perpall has expressed interest
in selling the property to the city,
but is asking'more than $560,000 to
cover costs he has spent develop-
ing the land.
Bach said that the city has had
e
it
(Perpall) wants for the property.
But, she said, "Perpall is not
going to accept any less than he
has spent on the property."
Bach also explained that if the
Board of Adjustment denies
Perpall's claim for a variance, the
city could "force a negotiation
between the city and the property
owner." Perpall also could take the
city to court to reverse the Board
of Adjustment's action.
Perpall was not at the meeting,
and no action was taken by city
commissioners.

Slay seeks election
to sheriff's office
Carlos E. Slay has announced
Iis candidacy for sheriff of
Nassau County in the upcoming
2008 election.
Three other Republicans have
filed to seek election as sheriff.
They include incumbent Sheriff
Tommy Seagraves, C.W. (Connie)
,Johnson, retired Nassau County
Sheriff's captain, and Richard
King, former director of the
Nassau County Jail. Fernandina
Beach Police Capt. Jim Coe, a
Democrat, also has filed to seek
the office.
"I have spent a great deal of
time talking with the residents of
Nassau County and have gained
an immense understanding of the
issues that concern them regard-
ing the current state of our local
law enforcement program," Slay
said in a campaign announce-
ment.
"I am convinced that positive
change is needed, and that I
am the person that can bring
that change to realization," he
said.
Slay said he seeks to bridge
the gap between residents
and law enforcement personnel
in an effort to share informa-
tion and reduce local crime
rates.
He also intends to build a
cooperative partnership with
other county officials to develop
a comprehensive four-year
plan that will "effectively and effi-
ciently manage budget needs,
eliminate irresponsible earmark
spending and establish a sound
S.'" contingency
plan for emer-
genicy pre-
paredness."
"It takes a
cooperative
effort by every-
one involved to
bring about
positive
Slay change," Slay
said. 'Together,
you and I can
make Nassau County the top law
enforcement agency in the state."
He is a lifelong resident of
Duval and Nassau counties and a
local business owner. Slay offers
more than 15 years experience
in strategic planning and busi-
ness management and believes
his experience has helped him to
develop skills needed to suc-
cessfully analyze an organization's
critical business requirements,
identify deficiencies and poten-
tial opportunities and develop
innovative and cost-effective solu-
tions.
Slay is an active member of
Wayside Assembly of God
Church and has served as a dea-
con and a board member. He has
been married for 10 years to his
wife, Hope, and together they
have two daughters.

tives.

travel to the jail on charges of pos-
session of cocaine and marijuana.
Once Davis took off, Graves
chased after him but did not fire his
weapon a decision Seagraves said
he supports.
"(Davis) wasn't a threat or harm
or danger at the time of the
escape," Seagraves said. "...
(Graves) was upset that it caused
me any embarrassment, but it was-
, n't him, he was doing his job, the
inmate wa. the-one who-did-it:" '
Seagraves said given the fact
that Davis had been arrested for a
drug offense, not a violent crime,
he felt one deputy was enough to
guard Davis while he was in the
hospital and to transport him after
his release.
"We've done that plenty of times
in the past, this is the first time
* r2a
this has happened since I took
office," he said. "If he was in jail for
murder, we would have had more
officers ... we take (inmates) to the
hospital every day, prisoners are
transported to doctor appoint-
ments, or to court."
Davis was initially arrested Feb.
21, following a traffic stop of a vehi-
cle, on a Duval County warrant
and for possession of marijuana,
possession of cocaine and posses-
sion of cocaine with intent to dip-
tribute after bags of drugs were
allegedly found in his seat in the
car.
He was taken to the hospital
immediately after the arrest
because police suspected he'd
ingested some of the cocaine.
Following his escape Friday morn-
ing, Davis first got into the vehicle

The man refused, so Davis fled

through an unlocked door, said
Seagraves.

that he made a dumb mistake,"
Seagraves, who is personally
acquainted with Davis, said. "... He
was crying, very upset and cry-

"I told him, 'I know you, and
I'm not scared of you, but the pub-

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2008 WEST SIDE NEWS News-Leader
Here's a vision for Hilliard:
more services, no sprawl
KATH1ECOLGROVE
Community Newspapers
Hilliard residents have no desire to see urban
sprawl spoil their country living.
More than 60 people participated in a public forum
Tuesday evening at Hilliard Middle-Senior High School,
giving their input on matters county planners should
consider when designing the future outlay for the West
Side.
The forum was the second of eight public meetings
being held this spring as part of a Nassau County
visioning project.
"County commissioners have put together a team
to help develop a 'Nassau County Vision 2032' plan,
what Nassau County will look like in 25 years," said
Dennis Yecke of MGT of America, Inc., a Tallahassee
consultant firm. That team has met on numerous occa-
sions throughout the fall, but a meeting Monday night
in Yulee was the first in which the public had a chance
to give input.
During the second meeting, held Tuesday, resi-
dents applied "blue dot" adhesive labels to comment
sheets posted at 11 tables. Participants selected three
issues and responded in writing about their thoughts
on various topics such as education and schools, pub-
lic safety, social services and growth management.
Residents also listed what they liked, what they did not'
like and what they would change in Hilliard.
Written responses under the education and schools
heading suggested that planners "modernize schools,"
provide "more books" and "separate the middle school
from the high school," among others.
Some respondents also verbalized their vision for the
future.
"I would like to see, as I wrote on my comment, the
class sizes decrease, the teachers paid better," said
Sherrie Hansen, a Hilliard resident and mother of two,
who said the forum was necessary to get input. "I have
spoken with a number of teachers and what I hear in
comments is that they are just not paid enough to be
Modernize schools"... separate the
middle school from the high school.'
babysitters. Classes are too big. They need to be paid
better."
Other issues residents were concerned about had
to do with road conditions and the lack of gas stations.
Another written comment from an unidentified
"Evergreen/Sandhill resident from CR 108" read, "We
have no gas stations ... bad for people who live in this
10-mile stretch."
A list highlighting public safety concerns included
"too many trains stopping or slowing (fire) rescue."
Another comment on the same list requested "more
manpower." Most participants have no desire to see
their rural life altered to a large degree, but would
like some conveniences without the urban sprawl, as
it is in Yulee.
'They let it happen. The county commission
responded to the developers and to their needs," said
Eddie Libby.
His wife, Barbara Libby, expressed her concerns too.
"I like the peace and quiet. I do not like the roads
that I have to travel on to get where I need to go. I don't
believe we get the quality of roads that they get on the
East Side," she said. She added that all county offices
should be in a central location., as it is in St. Johns
County.
A former Fernandina Beach resident wants devel-
opers to respect the environment in their plans.
"Well, one of the things I'd like to see is to maintain
the rural nature of West Nassau County," said Ray
Weinaug, who owns property west of Hilliard. "Don't
get it concentrated like it is in East Nassau County."

What they said in Yulee:
'Traffic is out of control'
GLENDA S.JENKINS
News Leader
The first "Nassau County Vision
2032" public hearing was held
Monday night in Yulee. Here is an
excerpted list from comments list-
ed:
* Public Safety
"Traffic is out of control."
"Need more traffic lights on
A1A."
* Cultural Opportunities
and the Arts
"I want to see the libraries
expanded, community arts -
music, art, drama and continua-
tion of the current arts."
"It is disgraceful that a county
with our budget gives nothing to
the arts."
"County needs to recognize
more of the culture of our African-
American residents."
* Infrastructure
"I would like to see public
transportation between Nassau
and Jacksonville." "Upgrade pri-
mary roads to support future
growth."
"Develop regionwide sewage
treatment plan for Yulee and
Fernandina areas."
"Another evacuation route for
Amelia Island."
"Construct new connector road
from US 17 to Blackrock Road."
* Economy & Workforce
"I want more 'clean' job oppor-
tunities for younger adults to con-
tinue to live in their hometown."
"I want affordable workforce
housing in the future."
'Tourism brings 'low wage'
salaries. This county needs higher
paying, 'high tech' businesses to
bring up the wages in the county."
* Governance
"You should NOT start county
commission meetings with a
prayer to Jesus Christ. There are
Jews (perhaps Muslims) here. You
exclude us. How about an ecu-
menical prayer?"

Each of these performance measures makes sure
that every customer of the city has a say in the
city's strategic plan and that the strategic plan is
constantly updated to make sure the changing
needs of the community are met.
So, what are the results? The results are that the
city is making sure all of its customers love where
they live and have a say in how it is run and they

approval rating for quality from both permanent
residents and renters. The city's second largest

tracks trends in school ratings and crime ratings;
86 percent of schools in Coral Springs earned an
"A" or better while being compared to just 68 pei -
cent of schools received an "A" in Broward County.
The city also boasts the lowest crime rate in the
state of Florida and the fourth lowest in the country
for cities of its size.
Coral Springs boasts that this does more than
just make its residents happy. It also allows the city
to allocate resources quickly to where they are
most needed and desired. It also allows the govern-
ment officials to look past the here and now and
makes them aware of environmental issues and
where they want to see the community in the

future. The city also shows that employees are
faster and. more engaged in their work, making the
city much more productive than similar sized gov-
ernments and larger governments in the area.
Coral Springs has a 95 percent approval rating
when asked how they enjoy working for the city. A
majority of these employees would "recommend a
friend work for the city." This 95 percent is com-
pared to just 60 percent of employees nationwide
rating their employment as favorable on the
National Human Capital Survey.
What could be better for Nassau County?
Before we look to what we want the community to
be like in 20 or 50 years down the road, I think
it is important that we are proactive in our govern-
ment first. If we could look at how we want the
county run, it will give new birth to ideas of
how the community will be. It will also give every-
one a say; gone are the headaches commonly asso-
ciated with government rules and regulations.
They are replaced with customer feedback,, strate-
gic planning and personal objectives; giving
every resident, business and government employee
a voice in how our county is run. It will also allow
the officials to allocate resources faster, thereby
making the quality of life in Nassau County better
for all.
Coral Springs has successfully made its city one
of the best places to live in the country. However,
with our natural resources, Southern hospitality
and wonderful people, combined with a govern-
ment focused on strategic planning and customer
satisfaction, Nassau County is sure to be the best
place to live, visit and work in the country.

In U.S., ign(
I thought it was just me, but my suspicions and
worries were confirmed on NBC's Today show
when a survey showed that Americans are
dumber today.
Well, dumber is a pretty harsh word, and
although it could apply to some, I prefer the word
ignorant. Ignorant has a mean connotation and I
don't want to sound mean, so by definition
(Webster's New World Dictionary) I mean, "lacking
knowledge or experience; caused by or showing
lack of knowledge; unaware."
A while back I saw a survey that showed that 95
percent of Americans knew who was the president
(the 5 percent could account for mental infirmity,
age, other acceptable reasons, etc.), but the fright-
ening numbers come after that. Only 75 percent of
Americans knew who the vice president was, 25 per-
cent knew who the secretary of state was; the same
number knew who both of their U.S. senators were.
Most people (at least a majority) knew who their
governor was, but almost no one knew who the lieu-
tenant governor was. OK, count me in; I had to look
it up. Guess who is the lieutenant governor of
Florida? Jeff Kottkamp. Amazing.
But what is really scary is that one out of four
college students couldn't show you where to find
Iraq on a map. A considerable number of Americans
think that people from New Mexico need a green
card to live and work in the United States. There are
people that don't know that you can drive to Alaska
from the lower 48 (they think it's an island like

FROM THE ply because they don't get it,

and accepted by their peers.
Without going into too much of a rehash, how can
people, especially people with doctorates, call evolu-
tion "not a fact." Regardless of one's religious lean-
ings, facts are facts. How something like evolution
occurred may fall into the realm of religion, but the
fact itself remains. It would be like saying man
never went to the moon, because God didn't create
man to fly. We may marvel at the possible miracle of
flight, but it doesn't justify saying that Apollo wasn't
the way it happened. Divine intervention may have
happened, but the facts remain on,how.it happened.
Anyway, this is not meant to be abotiliDarwint or
creationism. That was just an example of my con-
cern about ignorance (as defined earlier).
It seems that today Americans don't care much
about learning. I say that generally. Of course there
are many who do want to learn. But when I hear
people say they don't listen to public radio because
it's left wing, I am shocked. I am equally puzzled
when people are amazed that I listen to Fox News. I
am ignorant about many things (and most right-
wingers will say I am ignorant about everything),
and I feel compelled and embarrassed when I find
myself misinformed or uninformed.
In writing this piece, I went to the dictionary
twice to make sure I was using the right word. On
the way, I was sidetracked by several words that I
didn't know. It is fun to peruse the dictionary, some-
times it is distracting how much I need to learn as I
search for the word I need.
In the global economy and world village of today,
knowledge is ever so important, and ignorance is a
weight dragging us down. We better do something
now, individually and as a nation, or else America
will fall behind the emerging countries in Asia and
Eastern Europe, and our ignorance will not be bliss.
It starts with education, inside and outside of
school. We will be a better community (big and
small) when bumper stickers like "my child beat up
your honor student" are an embarrassment as
opposed to a point of pride.
Hopefully I don't get beaten up for saying that.

comments you reproduce do not mislead your readers.
It does not appear you did so in writing the article
titled "Meet wind codes, save on insurance," Feb. 13.
The gist of your article was essentially correct;
there is, for example, a lot of money to be saved by mit-
igating, and homeowners should get their homes
inspected and shop for the best price and coverage.
However your only source said "insurance companies
are not going to volunteer information because the
more people that know about it (mitigation discounts)
cuts into their profits." He then referred to the infor-
mation concerning mitigation as the "fine print" usually
attached to the renewal information that is "not easily
understandable."
First, mitigation inspections tell an insurer not only
what discounts to give but often whether they want to
insure the home. I'm sure you understand that it would-
n't be "profitable" to insure only homes that are more
likely to suffer greater damage. To the contrary, insur-
ing homes that are less likely to stiffer losses is more
profitable, which is why carriers want to offer dis-
counts that reduce premiums- that way they can com-
pete with other carriers who also want to write the
better protected homes.
He should also consider that in your area a large
majority of homes, particularly those nearest the beach,
are insured in Citizens Property Insurance Corp., the
state insurer of last resort, not with standard market
companies. Citizens, which is probably the largest
-wind insurer in your county; is a non-profit'entity.-i
Second, he may think thi:e itigatinr f .rm i' "no'rt.rl -
ily understandable" but I don't and neither does the
state of Florida. The form is required by law and
designed and approved by the Office of Insurance
Regulation, not by insurance carriers. Every sentence,
every word and every line of type is either in the law
or was put together after months of workshops and
meetings and final approval by Florida's insurance
regulator. These forms list and describe every miti-
gation discount factor available, the percentage dis-
count that could be applied, what to do to get the
work done and receive the discount and whether or not
the policyholders' current policy reflects that particular
discount This is true for every residential policy
issued in Florida.
While I'm sure he meant well, as did you, his com-
ments reflect an assumption based on limited under-
standing of the law and the insurance mechanism gen-
erally. We would appreciate your clarification of these
facts in a future article.

article said, it can be found by logging on to

VIEWPOINT/LucY NADEAU/YULEE
'Personal agendas, bloated egos' thwart reform
Nassau County Animal Control has been a
sinking ship without a captain for quite
some time. With the possibility of the sher-
iff taking over the responsibility of man-
ning the ship, it has suddenly become of utmost
importance to our county commissioners. Why this
level of concern has not always been prevalent can
$e summed up in a few words said to me by
Commission Chair Marianne Marshall, "Honey,
they (the county commissioners) don't care."
This was her response when I wanted to provide
ier with documents to share with her fellow com-
(nissioners that would provide insight into how ani-
(nal control is managed in other parts of the United
States. The commissioners are quick to jump back
Onto the ship since the new captain is so probable.
Why? Because the sheriff will be removing from
Jhem that giant thorn that Animal Control has
become; it will allow them to completely wash their
hands of it, and the less responsibility they have the
Wetter they feel.
" It is interesting how the commissioners have
handled the improprieties of Brenda Rothwell.
According to recent newspaper reports, the records
or 2007 intake versus euthanizations are "in disar-
Iay" and "are being audited." Has the federal Drug
enforcement Administration been invited to review
Ihe drug logs that were likely not maintained? How
an she be trusted to handle the affairs of Code
enforcement if she cannot maintain governmental
documents to dispense euthanization drugs? It all
smells like rotten fish to me and obviously the com-
issioners have grown immune to the stench to
illow her to remain in a supervisory capacity.
I For those of you who don't know, there was an
attempt to form a "Pet Alliance" consisting of all of
the rescue groups in Nassau County so that collec-
tively they could work toward a common goal the
betterment of animals. At the initial meeting of the
IPet Alliance," notably missing were Nassau

You can also go directly to a local veterinarian,

financially assist you in having your pet spayed or
neutered.
Humane Society and Nassau County Animal
Control. Since these two organizations are key ele-
ments in providing animal care and ensuring animal
welfare, you would think that they would have been
there, right?
But they weren't asked to attend. In fact, the
meeting agenda included a discussion topic as to
whether or not they should be included in this "Pet
Alliance." What good is an alliance if everyone can't
be united?
After this "Pet Alliance" meeting, a meeting was
held with the sheriff and rescue groups to discuss
the possibility of his office taking over Animal
Control. Again, notably absent were Nassau
Humane Society and Nassau County Animal
Control. They were again not asked to attend. How
can a group of people who claim to have the best
interests in mind for the animals of this county not
include an organization that has performed the
services of animal control previously nor the agency
that is under discussion?
The answers are personal agendas, bloated egos
and a dislike for the people who are in charge of
those entities. I was in attendance at the first meet-
ing held by the sheriff and was greatly disheartened
when I left.
Since (Animal Control Interim Director) Rhett
Holden-Dodge wasn't in attendance, a few people
decided it would be OK to express their dislike for
him. One of those people was Commissioner
Marshall, who said, "I knew I'd made a mistake
when I agreed to hiring him (Mr. Holden-Dodge)."
Instead of focusing on the problems with the shel-
ter, how to remedy them promptly, how to assist Mr.
Holden-Dodge in his quest to improve the situation,
Commissioner Marshall instead took the liberty of
saying she knew she'd made a mistake agreeing to
bring him back on board.
As I expressed at the county commissioner's
meeting on Oct. 31 before being rudely told to sit
down and shut up by Commissioner Jim B.
Higginbotham, I felt that Mr. Holden-Dodge's previ-
ous tenure at the shelter had mediocre results at
best. Why bring back a person that didn't do the
best of jobs when he was in command before? Mr.
Holden-Dodge offered the commissioners a deal
they couldn't refuse $1,000 a month as acting
interim director.
At the meeting with the sheriff after hearing all
of the negative comments about him, I made the
statement that I thought it would benefit the animals
best if we could put the past behind us and lend a
helping hand to him to get Animal Control back on
track. Obviously I am the only person who felt that
way.
The reason the commissioners clung to the offer
for $1,000 a month is because they knew they would
not find another person to accept the job for that
amount. He provided them with a reprieve from the
barrage of questions the public had. He was the
quick fix they were looking for. While I still do not
agree with all of his tactics, I laud Mr. Holden-
Dodge's efforts as he does the thankless job of
being the director because he is there for the right
reasons the animals.
One of the newest rescue groups in the county,
RAIN, appears to have monopolized the sheriff's
attention with regard to how the shelter should be
run. He has had subsequent meetings with people
involved with RAIN, yet, to my knowledge, he has
not asked for input from any other rescue group
since the initial meeting, nor has he asked any per-
son employed by Animal Control what they feel
would benefit the shelter most. We can all sit back
and say what we think is best, but how about asking
Patsy Bryant, who has been at the shelter a number
of years, what she thinks? I believe she would pro-
vide valuable "inside" information on what areas are
the biggest problems.
The sheriff's proposal to take over Animal
Control is correct in one thing. Animal Control in
the county is disgustingly underfunded. However, I
question his motives with the redundant positions
he has proposed to staff the shelter. Do you really
need a shelter manager when you have a shelter
director? Do you really need an office manager
when you only have two receptionists? Why not uti-
lize that funding to provide spaying and neutering
for people who have come to Animal Control as a
last resort? The more animals that are altered, the
fewer there will be in the shelter.
I ask that everyone take the opportunity to visit
the shelter. Through the hard work of countless vol-
unteers and shelter staff, the animals are better off
now than they have been in some time. Come and
see the sad conditions they have to live in. By doing
so, you will have done one thing that the commis-
sioners have not- visited the facility that has been
such a dilemma to them. Out of sight and out of
mind is their motto and they are suddenly all too
ready to pull money out of their magic hat to have
the sheriff take it all away due to the amount of pub-
lic scrutiny they are under.

"Well, I'm having a hard time
finding the right church to
attend," I told him. "I've visited

"I travel all over the world," he
said, "and I go into a lot of differ-
ent churches. I have to admit, I
don't always agree with what I
see," he continued. "But if you
ever-find a perfect church don't
go in it because you'll ruin it!"
His words were like a sword
cutting open my heart and reveal-
ing my pride. Though tempered
with love, the impact left me
stunned.
'That makes a lot of sense,"
I told him, and thanked him
once again for his ministry. As I
walked away, it all seemed so
clear. The whole time I was
expecting everyone else to meet
up to my standards, I was not con-
sidering the imperfections of my
own life that I would be bringing
to them.
The plain and simple truth is,
there are no perfect churches
because there are no perfect peo-
ple yet. As a matter of fact, it's the
one great thing we all have in
common; we need a savior.

Men's Day
The Men of Trinity United
Methodist Church will observe
their annual Men's Day Program
For me church isn't about
gathering with a group of people
who've got it all together, so we
can act better than those who
don't; but rather it's the place
where people just like you and me
come to worship and thank God
for meeting us right where We
are.
It's hard to believe that it's
been almost 23 years since my
encounter with the traveling min-
ister that night, and that I now am
the senior pastor of the very
church that I once judged not
good enough to attend. I can only
imagine how God must get a good
chuckle out of it all.
This much I know. When I
finally made the decision to stop
holding others to a standard that I
myself couldn't live up to, and
joined myself to a group of people
that would accept me as.I was, my
life has never been better.

Q Would you be able to iden-
.tify a plant growing in my
yard? I never see any flowers. It
is evergreen but I cannot find
any information about it. DG
A Recently, I have received
numerous clippings of this
sh'rub into the office. With so
many people interested in the
plant I felt compelled to put the
answer in the newspaper. I sus-
pect the small, shiny white fruit
is what piqued your interest.
One of the Master Gardener vol-
unteers recognized it as the
Night Blooming Jessamine,
Cestrum nocturnum.
It produces flowers but they
are small and open up at night,
which may be one of the rea-
sons you have not noticed them.
The name is derived from the
flowers producing a strong,
sweet scent at night that appar-
ently attracts a number of
wildlife.

diness
Beck zones 8-11.
Jorc This shrub
... typically
grows up to
GARDEN 4 feet in
TALK height but
can spread
up to 12 feet. It prefers moist,
well-drained soil and blooms
best in high sun areas but can
adapt shady sites.
Propagation occurs easily by
cuttings. It does not require
extensive pruning so it is easy to
maintain a natural shape. In
colder zones the shrub may
freeze back but it should pro-
duce new growth in the late
spring.
Q have dwarf oleander and
Just noticed that the
leaves are missing. When I
looked closer I saw orange
caterpillars with black bristles.
What is eating my plant? JD
A Your plant is being eaten
:eby the oleander caterpillar.
Normally the cooler tempera-
tures we've had this winter
would stop or slow the caterpil-
lars' feeding, but I have not seen
this to be true.
I suspect shrubs planted
near the house or in an alcove
may be in a warmer, more pro-
tected area that would allow
the insect a perfect environment
to continue growing and feed-
ing. Oleander caterpillars have
been found on plants in the
UF/IFAS Nassau County
Demonstration garden as well as
my own home so you are not
alone.
Despite their threatening
appearance they are quite harm-
less to humans so hand removal
works very easily as many are
too large for the chemical appli-
cation of pesticides to be worth-
while.
However, if they are small
(otte inch or less) you might try
an application of Bacillus
thuringiensis (Bt), which is a
naturally occurring bacterial dis-
ease used on insects. Bt insecti-
cides are most commonly used
against some leaf and needle
feeding caterpillars. Recently,
strains have been produced that
affect certain fly larvae, such as
mosquitoes, and larvae of leaf
beetles. Bt is considered safe to
people, pets and wildlife. Be
careful to avoid using this chem-
ical'around butterfly larvae as
they will be destroyed along
with the pests.
In addition, this chemical is
temperature sensitive so store it
in a dark, cool environment.
High heat destroys the bacteria
and renders it useless. As
always, follow the directions on
the label for best management
and control.
Q What is this small plant I
.found in my yard? BC
A What a nice surprise to
Find such a beautiful plant
in your yard. I suspect this flow-
ering plant is a terrestrial orchid
in the genus Corallorhiza. It is
so tiny that most people would
overlook it or think it a weed. I
am proud of you for noticing it at
all.
This plant grows about 4
inches in height in any type of
moist soil but prefers shaded
areas typically hardwood
forests. More specifically, I
believe this orchid might be
Corallorhiza wisteriana, Spring-
Coralroot, which blooms in the
early spring and is found

"Louis Jordon is a man of his
word," said Association for
Retarded Citizens Executive
Director Adrienne Talbert.
"Both lie and his wife show com-
mitment to the agency through
community involvement and active-
ly participating with us. He is very
dedicated and passionate."
Talbert said Jordan influences
not just his co-workers, but also
each member of the community to
learn more about what individuals
with disabilities can do rather than
focus on what they cannot do.
A board member for more than
two years, Jordon volunteers regu-
larly to cut the grass, maintain the
building and assist with fundraising
through encouraging others to get
involved.
Employed by J EA for the past 22
years, Jordon established the

Talbert.
"Each learns from each other
in a major way that we are all impor-

the world through caring for others
and volunteering time and talents."
Jordon spends his leisure time

close with Rose to give their father
a great celebration. Another
daughter, Laura E. Jones, sang
happy birthday and shared with
him by phone from Texas.
His 94-year-old mother,
Annie Johnson, along with other
family and friends, some from
Hilliard, Callahan, Kings Ferry,
Yulee, Jacksonville and other sur-
rounding areas, were' at the
Martin Luther King Jr. Center for
a celebration of love.
Love is like a smile, it is like a
song, it is a great emotion
that keeps us going strong. That
love was put together by his
daughters with slides about
their father and his family. His
nephew, Patrick Cribb, also
joined in the presentation.
Inspirational words came from
Evangelist Clara Stamps on "How
Strong is Your Love?" Rose says,
"I love you with all my heart.
And I have poured my entire soul
into you, right from the start. For
the race is not given to the swift,
nor the strong, but he that
endureth to the end." Hang on in
there, Rose, and allow your love to
endure.
Rose would like to express her
sincere appreciation to everyone
who helped to put this celebra-
tion together, especially to daugh
ters Star and Teresa, Veronica
Brizell, Brenda Donaldson,
Earline Jones, Melvin Cribb-Tyler,
Debbie Youngblood and Lillie
Melton, for a job well done.
Your kindness will never be for-
gotten.
May God greatly bless each
of you. I love you with all my
heart, my body and soul, like a
love I can't control. To God be the
glory.
Birthday ,wishes to Corey
Smith, Charlotte George, Sarah
Williams, Priscilla Williams,

Exercise
:andenergy
or some time, I have
wondered about a
way to harvest the
energy expended at a
; health club. Just picture your
"mind when you walk into the
''YMCA... all those people
'powering the bicycles, the
6 elliptical trainers and pushing
Sand pulling the Nautilus
"equipment. That is a lot of
-'energy that could be used to
-power the televisions or even
-the lights. The Y could even
Somehow store the energy
"and then donate it back to the
'!electric company to be passed
;.,onto someone who is strug-
-_,gling to pay their bill.
Now, while I may be able
to dream up the idea, I have
no idea how to actually make
it work. If you are able to "
come up with a way to make
*at happen, let me know. As
*ou will read;, others are
already working on other
!ays to harvest the energy of
ur motion.
Walk and talk
If you could power your
:ell phone simply by wearing
a special knee brace, would
kou? Researchers from the
University of Pittsburgh and
the University of Michigan
,have come up with just such a
device.
The brace was designed to
assist an injured person with
walking, but the developers
quickly realized that it had
other applications. As the
braced knee moves back and
forth, energy is created and
the brace transfers it into a
generator, which can then be
attached to an electronic
device.
Researchers showed that
simply walking for one
minute could power a phone
for 10 minutes.
Weary=.powshl&t
Researchers from Emory
University and Georgia Tech
are also at work developing
"power shirt" able to generate
electricity to power small
-electronic devices for soldiers
'in the field, hikers and others
-whose physical motion could
be harnessed and converted
to electrical energy.
5- This month's journal
Nature details how pairs of
-fextile fibers covered with
zinc oxide nanowires gener-
ate electrical current when
they are mechanically
deformed, a phenomenon
known as the piezoelectric
,effect.
Harvesting this electrical
-urrent from many of these
fiber pairs woven into a shirt
-"6r jackewcould allow your
body movement to power a
i-range of portable electronic
devices.
Researchers also noted
'how the fibers could also be
woven into curtains, tents or
other structures to capture
energy from wind motion,
sound vibration or other
-mechanical energy.
"The fiber-based nanogen-
,rator would be a simple and
economical way to harvest

"If we can combine many
f these fibers in double or
aiple layers in clothing, we
buld provide a flexible, fold-
able and wearable power
source that, for example,
would allow people to gener-
te their own electrical cur-
rent while walking," Wang
said.
Even the simple act of
breathing could create energy
that could be captured.

News-Leader
After losing the season opener to Baker
County Feb. 14, the Pirates have rallied to win
their last two games and are 2-1 on the season.
S. Welet a two-*, ad slip away in.our opn- ir
er at Baker County," said K.-n Roland,
Fernandina Beach High School head baseball
coach. "We carried a 2-0 lead into the seventh
inning, only to let Baker back into the game.
We failed to execute defensively and that con-
tributed to our late collapse.
"We faced an outstanding pitcher (senior
right-hander Jerrell Rodgers) and our young
hitters did a good job working the count."
Baker scored three unearned runs in the
seventh to win 3-2.
The Pirates collected six hits with Justin
Crews and Trent Luman accounting for two
each. Robert Martin and Hunter Daniel had
one apiece. Davis and Daniel knocked in the
Pirates' runs.
. Three pitchers shared time on the mound.
Justin Day started and struck out three, walked
four and gave up just two hits. Andy Bowles
gave up two runs on one hit and Jarrod Carlton
allowed one run on one hit.
The Pirates got their first win of the season
Feb. 15 at home. They defeated Terry Parker
7-6.
"Again we faced a pitcher with good veloc-
ity and movement and we did a good job put-
ting the ball in play," Roland said.
The Pirates had nine hits on the night.
"We just were not sharp on the mound and
walks put Terry Parker in position to make
the game close," Roland said. "Justin Day's
single in the seventh scored Harrison Yonn
with the game winner."
Justin Day had two hits and Womble, Crews,
Jeff Day, Carlton, Martin and Luman had one
hit each. Justin Day and Carlton had two RBIs
apiece and Martin and Luman each knocked in
a run.
Tyler Womble was the winning pitcher. iHe
gave up two runs on one hit and walked three.
Harrison Yonn started, giving up three runs,
one unearned, on two hits, walking five and
striking out three. Yonn gave way to Bradley
Manning, who allowed a run, walked two and
struck out one batter.
On Monday, FBHS shut out Lee 16-0.
"We pounded out 13 hits in the five-inning
game," Roland said. "Pitching was sharper.
Our young pitchers are working hard to stay
in advantage counts."
Myles Rabant was the winning pitcher. He
gave up just one hit and no runs, walked five
and struck out three. Cameron Rose pitched
the final inning, giving up no runs or hits and
striking out two.

Clockwise from top left: Pirate Justin Crews at the plate Monday; Lady Pirate
shortstop Bree Peterson at Lee Wednesday; teammate Carrington Fussell
behind the plate. She also pitched against the Generals.
At the plate, Carlton went 3-for-4 with three
RBIs. Jeff Day and Justin Day had two hits
apiece and both had a double in the game. Jeff
Day had one RBI and Justin Day knocked in
four runs. Daniel, Crews, Yonn and Martin
each had a hit. Crews tripled.
"With the graduation of 11 seniors, our
team is young and inexperienced," Roland said.
"We have three returning pitchers with right-
handers Justin Day and Jarrod Carlton along
with left-hander Tyler Womble. Justin Crews
returns at shortstop. Senior second baseman
Bud Davis also returns. All of the others are
new to the line-up.".
"Key newcomers are Robert Martin (junior
third baseman), Hunter Daniel (junior left field-
er), Trent Luman (sophomore right fielder),"
Roland said.
"Junior catcher Jeff Day brings some expe-
rience behind the plate. Sophomores Harrison
Yonn, Cameron Rose, Myles Rabant will be
counted on to give quality starts on the mound
and in the infield. LIP Andy Bowles (LIP) and
Bradley Manning (RH) round a deep pitching
staff. Spencer Hippe provides depth at first
base."
The Pirates travel to Stanton tonight and
play at Bishop Snyder in their first district
game Tuesday. They return home to host West
Nassau Thursday at 6 p.m. On March 1, FBHS
hosts Ware County, Ga. First pitch is at 1 p.m.
The FBHS Lady Pirates picked up their
first win of the season Wednesday at Lee. The
Lady Pirates won 13-3 in a mercy-rule short-
ened game.
Freshman Katie McElhaugh got the win.
She went three innings, striking out two and
allowing two runs. Another freshman.,
Carrington'Fussell, pitched the final two, giv-
ing up one run and striking out four.
Fussell and Whitney Small had two hits
apiece and the Lady Pirates got one apiece
from McElhaugh, Hannah Crews, Ebony
Peterson and Chelsea Cheshire.
'We've got a lot of work to do," said Donnie
Fussell, head softball coach for Fernandina
Beach High School. "A lot of the girls don't
play travel ball and our opponents do. We play
in a real tough district It's a tremendous chal-
lenge,
"We still have 20 ballgames. Our job is to get
them focused and get better. I want them to be
competitive. They don't have to win. I just want
them to get better every time they get on the
field. .
"We're playing real good softball teams who
know how to play. We've had too many mental
mistakes. We have to improve and we know
how to do it."
The Lady Pirates lost their two preseason
games and lost to Fletcher, Stanton, Baker
County, Bishop Snyder, Hilliard, Trinity
Christian and Yulee in the regular season.
They travel to West Nassau tonight for a 7,
p.m. game and play at Wolfson Tuesday. First
pitch is at 6 p.m.

pair of runs; and senior Josh
Kubala and freshman Andrew
Minor had a double and an RBI
apiece.
"It was good to pick up our first
district win in our first district
game," Coach Minor said. "Every
district win is big because we only
play each team once: Withsids-
trict games to go, it feels goodtb be
1-0."
Yulee bettered that record on
Tuesday, beating Baldwin 5-1 and
pushing its district record 2-0.
On the mound for Yulee,

scored a run; Minor, who went 2-
for-4 with an RBI and scored twice,

FA fish haven a good bet for sea bass action this weekend
TERRY LACOSS/SPECIAL
Dan McCranie is all smiles after catching this fat sea bass. Sea bass action should be excellent
this weekend offshore.
OUTDOOR BRIEFS
O offshore fishing for sea bass should be
excellent this weekend. A gotd place to
begin your drift fishing day on the water
is FA fish haven. Fishermen will find lots
of hard bottom and rock ledges, which are both
excellent habitats for good eating sea bass.
Bring along a five-pound frozen block of local
squid for bait. Most local tackle shops have five
pounds of frozen local squid on hand, which will
also catch a wide variety of bot-
i tom feeders. Expect to catch
lots of red snapper this week-
IJ end at FA fish haven along with
a few keeper gag grouper.
Once you have boated a few
sea bass, cut the smaller bass
into chunks for cut bait and fish
a chunk of cut bait on the top
hook and fresh squid on the
bottom hook of your double
Terry Lacoss rig.
....** This weekend small boats
ON THE may try KBY or Schultz's Fish
Market; both are located within
WATER five miles offshore and accessi-
ble by small boats.
I went bass fishing last weekend in a small lake
and did not see any bedding activity for largemouth
bass. In fact, the fishing action was quite slow while
Norman Bray, Dan Nolan and I caught and released
seven bass weighing to three pounds.
A full moon did arrive Thursday. With this in
mind, expect a big spawn to happen during the next
few weeks.
The Little St. Marys River, Boggy Creek and the
deep waters of Lofton Creek should hold some
excellent pre-spawn bass fishing. Try casting a No.

For the News-Leader
Local artist and intuition
teacher, Carol Beck, is
exhibiting in the
Jacksonville International
Airport Haskell Gallery and Art
Kiosks through March 31.
Beck (www.carolbeck.net) is
exhibiting her large intuitive
abstract pieces along with
Jacksonville artist Zac Freeman's
photos of light and found object
portraits in an exhibit entitled
"Intuition Illuminated."
Beck is best known for her
paintings of energy arid light. Her
current exhibit is chosen from her
Meditation Series. In this exhibit,
Beck tries to express depth and
power through simplicity; continu-
ally trying to paint what feels like
pure essence.
Her paintings seem to clear a
space from normal everyday life
by incorporating wide expanses of
white surface
and then
,, engage the
viewer's eye
f with fresh,
energetic,
light-filled col-
W / *' ors.
Some of
Beck's latest
Beck works, based
on a recent trip
to India, are
displayed in two of the Art Kiosks
located in the entryway of the
Jacksonville Airport. One displays
her Sari Series, where she recre-
ates passing glimpses of women's
saris, and incorporates stamps
from antique textile woodblocks
she brought home from New
Delhi.

NEWS-LEADER/FERNANDINA BEACH, FL
At long last
- a notable
shiraz
ROBERT M. WEINTRAUB
For the News-Leader
I recently wrote about Australia's
problems with a glut of shiraz, corpo-
rate takeovers and a decline in quality.
But there are always exceptions to the
rule and a recent arrival here is one of
them.
Forefathers shiraz is produced
from a 15-acre vineyard in McLaren
Vale, South Australia. This shiraz is a
single vineyard wine produced by
Goldschmidt Vineyards. The 2003 vin-
tage was
rated a "91" gr
by The Wine WINE &
Spectator,
ranked it fp NERS
63rd world-
wide in its 'Top 100 Wines" in 2005.
That year it also won a gold medal in
the West Coast Wine Competition and
the Indy International Wine
Competition.
And it's available for $13 at Amelia
Liquors (next to Harris Teeter). The
distributor says it is also available
through Costco Warehouse.
Goldschmidt is one of the smaller
Australian vintners that still strive for
quality, not corporate profits.
Structure, intensity and complexity,
the three characteristics of quality
wines, are their objectives, Which they
do achieve in this fine example of how
shiraz should taste. The Forefathers
shiraz is made using traditional
Australian winemaking techniques,
with short time on skins and fermen-
tation in barrel After ferment is com-
pleted the wine is barrel racked and
left in French oak for 12 months. The
wine remains unfiltered and unfined,
preserving as much of the natural fla-
vors as possible.

COMING TUESDAY
The Darjeeling Limited
(Comedy. R. 91m.. 2007)
Three brothers have a reunion
in India and take a strange and
eccentric train journey in search
of themselves, enlightenment,
their mother, and certain obscure
over-the-counter remedies guar-
anteed to cure sobriety. Owen
Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason
Schwartzman star in a laid-back
human comedy that meanders so
persuasively, it gets us meander-
ing right along. With Amara Karan
as a seductive train stewardess
and Wally Wolodarsky as
Wilson's employee, who issues
laminated daily schedules from
his office in the baggage car.
Directed by Wes Anderion
("Rushmore," "The Royal
Tenenbaums"). Rating: *** --
30 Days of Night
(Horror. R. 113m.. 2007)
Barrow, Alaska, said to be the
northernmost town in America,
undergoes 30 days without sun
every winter, which makes it an
ideal holiday haven for vampires.
The townsfolk, led by Josh
Hartnett and Melissa George, do
battle against ravenous vampire
hordes led by Danny Huston, in a
film that is well-directed and -
acted. Rating: **-
Beowulf
(Fantasy. PG-13.114 m.. 2007)
A titanic epic battle between
the monster Grendel and the
hero Beowulf, shown by director
Robert Zemeckis with rip-roaring
gusto by using the same technol-
ogy as his "Polar Express," so
that animated characters look
almost real. With the voices (and
sometimes the appearances) of
Anthony Hopkins, Angelina Jolie,

Crispin Glover (who doesn't look

nudity and yet a PG-13 rating.
You see, Jolie (ITAL) isn't really
there, (UNITAL) although she's
there enough that she says she
won't be taking her own kids.
Absurd violent action in the
Monty Python spirit. Rating: ***
Death ata Funeral
(Comedy. R. 90 m.. 2007)
British comedy involving
unplanned entrances and exits,
misbehavior of corpses and just
plain wacky eccentricity. Directed
by Frank Oz, it finds its laughs in
the peculiar human trait of being
most tempted to laugh when
we're absolutely not supposed to.
With Matthew Macfadyen, Keeley
Hawes, Ewen Bremner, Jane
Asher, Rupert Graves and, last
but not least, Peter Dinklage.
Rating: ***
Goya's Ghosts
(Drama. R. 114 m.. 2007)
Set in the time of the Spanish
Inquisition, Milos Forman's film
interweaves stories of the
Spanish artist, an innocent young
girl, a priest, a merchant and the
royal court. Extraordinarily beauti-
ful, as much a series of striking
images as a linear story. Starring
Stellan Skarsgard, Javier
Bardem, Natalie Portman, Jose
Luis Gomez and Randy Quaid.
Filled with blood, sex and fears.
Rating: ***
SILK
(Romantic drama. R. 110 m.. 2007)
A languid, too languid, story of
romantic regrets, mostly ours,
because romance is expected to
carry the film without explaining it.
It is told as a mournful flashback,
circa 1860, narrated by a man
(Michael Pitt) who has been in
love with two women, one French
(Kiera Knightley), one in far-off
Japan (Sei Ashina), where he
goes to buy silkworms. Languid,
slow, underwhelming. Rating: **
OUT NOW
Michael Clayton
(Drama. R. 119 m.. 2007)
George Clooney plays a slick,
efficient but weary fixer for a big
law firm, Sydney Pollack ;s the
head of the firm, Tom, Wilkinson is
the partner who has just stripped
naked during a deposition hear-
ing in Milwaukee, and Tilda
Swinton represents the corporate
client who is horrified to find such
a man leading their defense. A
near-perfect example of the
legal/business thriller. Written and
directed by Tony Gilroy, who
wrote all the "Bourne" picture.

Be Kind Rewind
(Comedy. PG-13. 101minutes)
After every tape in a VHS
rental store is inadvertently
erased, Jack Black and Mos Def
don't want the store owner
(Danny Glover) to find out. So
they set to work to "re-enact" the
films in low-tech home movies. I
felt positive and genial while
watching it, but I didn't break out
in iparoxysms of laughter. Written
and directed by the usually more
brilliant Michel Gondry.

(Horror. R. 95 minutes)
Film students making a horror
movie for a school project turn
into guerrilla documentarians
with video shaky-cams when the
undead return to stalk the Earth.
This is the fifth of George A.
Romero's "Living Dead" movies,
and once again he mixes horror

time in the form of a website doc
about post-9/11 paranoia and
zombies who bite in the night.

WINE Continued from 1B
McLaren Vale fruit characters for shiraz are
spicy and rich. There are notes of plum, black pep-
per and a soft note of vanilla. The barrel ferment
technique makes the wine fruit-forward, with sweet,
ripe tannins. It has a long finish and silky mouth,
feel This wine's best years are from two years of age
to seven, which means the 2003 vintage is at its
prime right now.
Another find at Amelia Liquors is a South African
sauvignon blanc from the famous Vergelegen estate.
This 2004 bottling is truly a different SB, and a
standout. It has a nose that jumps out of the glass -
gooseberries, fig, elderflower, some ripe fruits, cut
grass and green pepper. The wine is full, intensely
flavored and very long on aftertaste.
The grapes are selected from Vergelegen's own
vineyards in Somerset West, plus from selected vine-
yards on the West Coast near the town of
Koekenaap, a blend of 90 percent sauvignon blanc,
10 percent semillon. The grapes are skinned quickly
(the vintner contends skin contact leads to coarse
wines), the'juice settled for 72 hours at low tempera-
tures before inoculation with the desired yeast strain
for sauvignon grapes. Another non-traditional tech-
niquie used for this wine is fermentation at higher
temperatures than normal. This leads to fuller, big-
ger and more intensely flavored wine, the vintner
says, and the actual drinking experience proves
them right.
Wine Enthusiast Magazine named the Vergelegen
Estate the "New World Winery of the Year" in 2006.
The 9,000-acre estate, snug between the
Helderberg arid Hottentots Holland mountains some
30 miles from Cape Town, is ideal for viniculture as it
has a prolonged growing season that allows grapes
to develop a full flavor.
Now a historic landmark, Vergelegen (pro-
nounced Fair'-huleg-hen and meaning "situated far
away') has a history that goes back to the Dutch col-
onization of 1700. It is considered one of the environ-
mental jewels of South Africa. It was acquired by the
Anglo American Corporation, world renowned for
precious metals industries and De Beers Diamonds,
some 20 years ago. Anglo-American, unlike other
corporations, has kept hands off the winery,
although the estate has become a frequent meeting
place for world leaders. Vergelegen played a role in
the efforts to build anew South Africa. In 1991, soon
after Nelson Mandela's release from prison, the
homestead hosted the recently unbanned African
National Congress for a crucial executive meeting -
beginning a relationship with Mandela, who was to
become South Africa's president three years later.
Vergelegen's recent history includes the state
receptions for President Clinton, Queen Elizabeth II
and other European royalty, as well as many other
leaders from around the world.
You can buy this piece of South African history,
for a short time, at Amelia Liquors for $13.
