Hundreds

attend

protest

rally

BY RITA HART
Staff writer
STUART It began with
just two individuals who
wanted to organize a rally,
and grew by their count to
200 who showed up on the
Roosevelt Bridge on
Wednesday, May 23.
Sue Hilton, one of the
organizers she said the
other wishes to remain
anonymous indicated the
rally was intended to
protest proposed immigra-
tion reform legislation in
the Senate.
Ms. Hilton said the plan is
to continue the rally weekly
onWednesdays from 5:30 to
7:30 p.m. on the Roosevelt
Bridge.
"We want to remain vocal
and out there, to encourage
people to pay attention to
this issue," she said.
Ms. Hilton and the other
organizer got word out
about the rally through a
local newspaper, by hand-
ing out fliers to family and
friends and by calling into a*
local talk radio program just
a few days before the event.
"We wanted to bring this
to people's attention quick-
ly. We are just two private
citizens who were dis-
cussing the issue and were
alarmed at what the Senate
was doing. Instead of com-
plaining about it, we decid-
ed to do something about
it," said Ms. Hilton.
Encouraged by the
I See RALLY, A2


among the best in the
state in the areas of read-
ing, math and science, sig-
nificant improvements
were realized in many
individual schools in the
percentage of students
scoring at or above profi-
ciency level.
Bragging rights belong to
Martin County ninth-
graders, who ranked first
in the state in reading
score proficiency, and sev-
enth-graders, who were
tied for first place in the
state in math proficiency
levels.
For every grade tested
and in every subject area,
the Martin County School
District ranks among the


top ten in the state for stu-
dents scoring at or above
proficiency levels.
"We're very excited
about the scores. We did
see significant increases in
every grade level in every
subject," said Cathy Bren-
nan, public information
officer for the Martin
County School District.
To determine proficien-
cy, students must attain
an achievement score of
three to five. FCAT defines
a student scoring at level
three as one who "answers
many of the test questions
correctly but is generally
less successful with ques-
tions that are the most
challenging."


A student scoring at level
five, the top score, is one
who "has success with the
most challenging content
of the Sunshine State
Standards."
The only grade level that
dropped more than five
percent in the proficiency
level was the third grade,
in the area of reading. In
2006, 83 percent of Martin
County third-graders
scored at or above profi-
ciency level, while their
score was 77 percent in
2007. However, this cate-
gory saw a drop statewide
as well, from 75 percent in
2006 to 69 percent in 2007.
Therefore, Martin County
students still scored high-


er than the statewide aver-
age in third-grade reading.
Hidden Oaks Middle
School, serving sixth
through eight grades, had
the highest percentage of
students scoring at or
above proficiency level in
every grade level in read-
ing, math and science.
Jenny Lambdin, princi-
pal of Hidden Oaks, attrib-
utes the school's success
to a strong faculty and stu-
dents who have a lot of
parental support.
"In addition, we've
implemented some differ-
ent strategies this year,"
said Ms. Lambdin.

Treasure Bob's quest

for the impossible dream

Bob Bouchlas shows the Spanish piece of eight hanging around his neck
while he stands on the shore across from one of his homes. This was
the first coin he ever discovered.


A tale of a captain
and his pursuit of
more than just a
billion dollar statue

BY MATT DONEGAN
Staff writer
What could be the richest ship-
wreck treasure in history was dis-
covered in mid-May at an undis-
closed site in the Atlantic Ocean, but
a local man of the cloth says the esti-
mated $500 million haul is small
potatoes when compared to a lost
statue of gold that sunk 350 years
ago.
Enter Bob Bouchlas, a doctor of
theology, ordained Orthodox minis-
ter, man of the sea, knight, AM radio


personality, storyteller, explorer, his-
torian and more.
If Hollywood would listen for just a
few hours, they would have enough
life to make a helluva based-on-a-
true-storyfilm.
.This much is fact: In, 1980, Capt.
Bouchlas discovered the virgin
wreckage of the Nuestra Senora de
las Maravillas, a Spanish galleon
that went down in 1656 in a geo-
graphically triangular area formed
by Bermuda, Florida's low coast and
Grand Bahama Island.
"That is the apex of the Devil's Tri-
angle, right there," said Capt.
Bouchlas, who resembles an out-of-
work mall Santa. 'All the weird
things happen there. Your compass
will spin a hundred miles an hour,
like a top."

turnout at the first rally and
the support shown by
passers-by who honked
their horns, Ms. Hilton said
she was approached by sev-

"We had so much interest
from people on the bridge
wanting expansion of our
efforts, and wanting to get
involved. We have a lot more
manpower now. We have
someone who wants to put
up a website for us," said Ms.
Hilton.
Although she said the
efforts are in planning stages
now, the hope is to eventual-
ly meet with legislators to
express the group's con-
cerns.
"Our purpose is to bring it
to the forefront and not just
wait for congress to do
whatever they are going to
do," said Ms. Hilton.
"We just can't be compla-
cent anymore. For instance,
when the first first bombing
took place at the World
Trade Center (in 1993), we
didn't do anything in
between. We got compla-
cent, and all of a sudden,
they took the towers down,"
she said.

Ms. Hilton said she was
not connecting the presence
of illegal immigration with
terrorism.
"I'm alluding to America's
apathy about addressing
issues and doing something
about them," she said.
Ms. Hilton said she feels
the first important step is to
secure America's borders.
"Without doing that, we
can't accomplish anything
else," she said. "We have to
control the flow of people
when we don't know who
they are. From there we can
address a lot of other issues.
But this is the first step."
Ms. Hilton said the next
step is to deal with immi-
grants who have already
entered the U.S. illegally.
"What do we do about the
illegals here that are violent
criminals? Do we send them
back, incarcerate them
here?" she asked.
"We need to figure out the
consequence and cost to
our country of any immigra-
tion bill that goes through,"
said Ms. Hilton.
"I don't think congress has
really looked at that. There
are a lot of numbers floating
around, but I don't know
that congress has done any
numbers whatsoever to give
us the truth about this," she
said.


Mahoney

opposes

bill

By RITA HART
Staff writer
STUART The Senate
is considering the Com-
prehensive Immigration
Reform Act of 2007, the
bill that would give ille-
gal aliens who arrived in
the U.S. before January 1
legal status provided
they pass a background
check, pay a $5,000 fine
and learn English. The
' bill also includes a provi-
sion to improve border
security.
This proposed bill is
one of the factors that
prompted the recent
gathering in Stuart of
those in opposition to
immigration reform.
U.S. Rep. Tim Mahoney
(D-Palm Beach Gardens)
was not involved in the
organization of the
recent rally in Stuart.
However, when contact-
ed about the proposed
reform, Rep. Mahoney
said, "I oppose the Sen-
ate bill because it is not
tough enough. Our
immigration system is
broken. What we have
right now is amnesty; we
cannot account for 12
million individuals who
are here illegally.
"We need to pass legis-
lation to secure all of our
borders, both land and
sea, identify who is here
illegally and why they
are here, and set up a
worker verification sys-
tem and hold employers
accountable. The Senate
bill would. not achieve
these goals," he said.

Hurricane fair slated for June 2-3


FOR HOMETOWN NEWS
The American Red Cross
will conduct the 13th annu-
al American Red
Cross/Expert Shutter Hurri-
cane Fair on June 2 and 3 at
the Treasure Coast Square
Mall in Jensen Beach.
The fair is designed to
highlight new technologies,
provide information on this


year's hurricane season and
offer preparedness infor-
mation on everything from
shelters to shutters.
The Hurricane Fair is
designed to get as much
information to as many
people at one time in one
place and, according to Red
Cross officials, they are
expecting more than 60,000
people this year.


"Because of the hurricane
activity in 2004 and 2005
we've had a huge
response," said Mary
Sawyer, executive director
of the Martin County Chap-
ter of the American Red
Cross. "It was developed 13
years ago and is a place
vendors can come with
new products. Its also a
great opportunity for peo-


ple to look into products for
their homes."
Other highlights include
children's activities, free
blood pressure readings,
how to set up hurricane
kits, tips on boarding up
homes and suggestions
on various government
grants that can give assis-
tance for obtaining hurri-
cane shutters.


FCAT
From page Al


"The big one across the
district is benchmark
assessments that we do at
different time periods
across the year that meas-


ure mastery of certain
skills. We then analyze the
data by grade and subject,
and the teachers can tar-
get weak areas," she said.


Ms. Brennan, speaking
on behalf of the entire
Martin County School dis-
trict, congratulated all of
those involved, "Our


schools, our students our
staffs and our families
should all be proud. It has
truly been a total team
effort."


WEEK IN

REVIEW

Teen with fireworks starts brush fire
A brush fire that consumed an acre of vegetation
on N.W. Marsh Rabbit Lane in Stuart was believed
to have been started by a 13-year-old Stuart Middle
School student playing with fireworks.
Stuart police, members of Stuart Fire Rescue and
Martin County firefighters all responded to the fire
that began shortly after 8:30 p.m. on May 23.
Possible action against the juvenile is pending a
complete investigation.
Public input invited
on Renar River Place project
Phase two of the Renar River Place redevelop-
ment project has been delayed another 30 days to
allow time for more input from the public.
After the first,'phase of the project was completed,
approval of the plans for the second phase was
delayed at the request of commissioners to allow
Renar developers Renee and Arden Doss the
chance to rework their original plans.
The developers then reduced the size of the origi-
nal plan of 23 residences to only six, and also
reduced the size of planned commercial and park-
ing space.
After the new plans were released to the Jensen
Beach Downtown Advisory Committee last week,
however, it was decided that the matter would be
postponed an additional 30 days to allow more
time for the public's input.
NOAA releases hurricane predictions
The National Oceanographic & Atmospheric
Administration last week announced its predic-
tions for the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season.
Experts at the NOAA Climate Prediction Center
are projecting a 75 percent chance that the Atlantic
hurricane season will be above normal this year,
showing that the ongoing active hurricane era
remains strong.
NOAA scientists predict 13 to 17 named storms,
with seven to 10 becoming hurricanes, of which
three to five could become major hurricanes of
Category 3 strength or higher, said Conrad C. Laut-
enbacher, undersecretary of commerce for oceans
and atmosphere and NOAA administrator.
An average Atlantic hurricane season brings 11
named storms, with six becoming hurricanes,
including two major hurricanes.

From the wreck, he recov-
ered more than $1 million in
coinss, silver, emeralds and
artifacts. But that is only
scratching the surface of a
project to which he has ded-
icated his life.
The condensed version of
the story begins in the 1600s
in Spain, which, led by King
Phillip IV was in an endless
war defending the cause of
the Roman Catholic Church
against the Protestants.
When financing the war
became a problem, King
Phillip sent his armada to
the New World in search of
gold, diamonds, pearls and.
riches.
As a symbol of Spain's
struggle, the king commis-
sioned the creation of a life-
sized statue of the Virgin
Mary and her Christ Child. A
sample statue was delivered

20th-Century
Jewelry
The jewels of Spanish
painter Salvador Dali
were more extravagant
and were more repre-
sentative of design for its
own sake than as a func-
tion of the jewel to be
worn. Although a great
deal of modern jewelry is
designed and made by
large firms, the tradition
of the artist craftsman is
strong in Scandinavia
and the United States,
where silver, semi-
precious stones, ham-
mered copper, and
other less costly materials
are commonly used.
Plastics are often
employed in expensive
jewelry. Arts-and-crafts
shops produce vast
selections .of abstract
and naturalistic designs
in rings bracelets, ear-
Ings, necklaces, and
brooches. Although jew-
elry in the 19th and early
20th century was worn
primarily by women, in
the late 20th Century
some men were wearing
jewelry such as
neckchains, bracelets,
and earrings.

to the governor of Mexico,
with orders to cast the like-
ness in the purest gold of the
land and crown the Madon-
na and the Christ Child with
jewels.
Once completed, the gold
statue, believed to be up to
1,800 pounds, was placed on
the king's flagship, the Nues-
tra Senora de las Maravillas.
On the fleet's return trip to
Spain, the Maravillas found
itself in shallow water, and,
despite sounding warning
cannons, it was rammed by
one of its fellow ships. The
captain of the Maravillas
had the foresight to maneu-
ver toward "Devil's Rock,"
sinking the ship near the reef
in 30 feet of water. Close by,
Capt. Bouchlas said the
water's depth reaches more
than a mile.
"In the sinking of the Mar-
avillas, King Phillip lost con-
trol and power," Capt.
Bouchlas said. "He needed
this. The Spanish empire
was falling apart. He lost the
ship, his checks bounced, he
lost the war and now we've
got Protestants."
Fast forward to 1975. Cap-
tain Bouchlas, who had
been raised as a sponge-
diver in a Greek household
in Tarpon Springs, had stud-
ied the wreck for a few years
and decided to' go public
about his search for the
Maravillas.
By luck, or, by act of God,
as he would say, he found
physical traces of the Span-
ish treasure in 1978 in the
form of an empty eight-foot
long iron box while diving
for lobsters in 18 feet of
water off the coast of the
Bahamas with friends, the
same friends who had taken
to calling him "Treasure
Bob."
"I knew I found some-
thing," he said.
Unable to move the arti-
fact, he broke off a piece of
the box and brought it home
for testing. He found it had
indeed been cast several
hundred years ago.
Admittedly, he used the
backdoor in obtaining a per-
mit from the Bahamian gov-
ernment to search the
waters. He had devised a
concept of using sponges for
aqua monitoring. The Uni-
versity of Miami even
backed him up, he said. So
he went to the Bahamas
seeking a contract to harvest
sponges and transplant
them in Florida. Pitching the
idea, he said the plan would
bring a huge legitimate
industry to the Bahamas. He
said he asked for and
received a lease for 25 miles
of ocean.
The hunt was on, and, as
the captain already knew, it
was a detective story.
With records he uncovered
from the Spanish govern-
*ment, Capt. Bouchlas
learned the crews of five
other Spanish ships already
salvaged the most impor-
tant cargo on the Maravillas
not long after it sank. But
*those ships are believed to
have been sunk in a storm.
Two of them have been
found. Three are still out
there, and Capt. Bouchlas
says one of them contains
the statue.
If found, he claims it would
be more significant than the
1921 discovery of King Tut's
tomb. The ship's lost treas-
ure is valued at roughly $2.5
billion, though the statue is
priceless, he said.
Because of the salvaging
by the Spaniards, the Mar-
avillas contained only a
fraction of the loot it had
stuck with. Regardless, find-
ing the ship is still a moment
Capt. Bouchlas said he holds
in his spirit and soul.
"It was like I woke up in

heaven," he said. "Every-
thing I had been studying, it
was a part of me, my faith, all
coming on one big old ice
cream cone, the best flavor
in the world. I just can't even
describe it. I'm so lucky to
have had the privilege to dis-
cover something that was so
pertinent to history and to
Christianity."
After the find, he flew to
Spain, carrying dies from the
wreck. The dies had been
used to stamp the ancient
bullion, and Capt. Bouchlas
presented them to King Juan
Carlos I. In return, the king
gave him a commendation
and made him a knight in
the Byzantine Order of the
Holy Sepulchre in Malta.
The commemorative sword
used in the knighting, as well
as a few artifacts from the
wreck, are now on display at
The Saint Michael Academy
Museum in West Palm
Beach.

The tale grows tall?

This next part is the kind of
big fish story that might be
heard around closing time at
the localVFW.
That's why the captain,
also known as "The Preach-
er" and Father Haralambos
Bouchlas, seemed hesitant
to bring it up; he knows it
will make him look crazy.
But he gives in and reveals
the rest anyway.
January24, 1978, two years
before he discovered the
Maravillas, Capt. Bouchlas
believes God, a meteor and a
Russian satellite pointed to
the wreck of the salvage ves-
sel carrying the Madonna
and Christ Child statue.
It's well-documented that
on that morning, a Soviet
satellite carrying radioactive
fuel crashed near the Great
Slave Lake in the Northwest
Territories of Canada. The
"killer satellite," so dubbed
for its purpose of destroying
enemy satellites, was one of
a few dozen that the Rus-
sians launched between
1963 and 1982.
What's not quite docu-
mented is The Preacher's
version, which has a meteor
smashing into the satellite,
Cosmos 954, scattering the
technology, meteor bits and
radioactive waste not only in
Canada, but also in the
Atlantic off the coast of
Jupiter.
Captain Bouchlas, author
of a 700-page, three-volume
book on his adventure, is
convinced that the location
where the satellite went into
the water is the resting place
of the salvage vessel, and
that buried deep in the sand
there is a vault; inside is the
statue, he claims.
Aside from not being able
to acquire the necessary
permits to salvage the site,
Capt. Bouchlas knows that
several entities would claim
ownership if the treasure
were found. But he doesn't
seem to care whether or not
he ever finds the statue.
"Regardless of the quest
and the scars and all the
things you go through, the
real issue is the pursuit," he
said, calling his "a faith story
that wraps up into reality."
Whatever the story is, he
has captivated audiences
throughout South Florida
for decades telling it. For
Capt. Bouchlas, that seems
to be the real treasure.
Bob Bouchlas will give a
talk on the Maravillas expe-
dition at 6 p.m. Tuesday, June
12, at the Fort Pierce Branch
Library. He's expected to
bring some of the bounty
from the Maravillas with
him. The program is free and
registration is not required.

Good move, Martin County
I live in Palm City, and would appreciate it if you would
indicate that I am the director of Sustaining Community
Lands.
I just learned that the Martin County Commission
plans to have its staff draft a Comp Plan Amendment
that will make it possible to acquire the land needed to
complete the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration
Plan and the Indian River Lagoon Plan by using cluster-
ing and/or other planning tools.
I do not know the details, yet, but this is a natural
extension of the success the commission recently had in
acquiring land in the Atlantic Ridge by approving the
Micha Project.
All the work and studying I have done in the past four
years with Friends of Martin County, the committee for
a sustainable Treasure Coast, and sustaining community
lands has led me to the conclusion that this is the only
way we will be able to get the land we need to clean up
the rivers, to re-create healthy natural systems, and to
limit growth.
If you believe as I do, please contact Commissioners
Valliere, Smith, and DiTerlizzi and let them know they
did the right thing. It took vision and courage for them
to initiate this positive change for our future.
They really need our support immediately, to let them
know how much we appreciate their efforts now, and
throughout the Comp Plan Amendment Process, to
make sure that the policies the county ultimately adopts
are the strongest and most effective possible.
I am very excited!
The commissioners' e-mail addresses are:
mditerli@martin.fl. us, svallier@martin.fl. us and
dsmith@martin.fl. us
She is trying to help
Here's a question I have.
Why would anybody complain about Commissioner
Valliere?
At least with the land preservation amendment, she is
thinking about how to protect Martin County's environ-
ment.
That's more than I can say for the people criticizing her.
e Many of them act like they are the only ones who care
about the environment.
Whatever! Let's get real here. We all want to protect the
environment.
Nobody wants Martin County to look like Orlando.
The only way to protect that land is for the county to buy
it, and land isn't cheap. Especiallyin Martin County.
That means raising our taxes. Excuse me, but I already
pay enough in taxes, on insurance, and at the gas pump.
It's a lot more expensive to live here in Florida than it was
when I first moved down from New Jersey, way back when.
Commissioner Valliere
seems to see this. She wants the developers to donate land
before they can build.
This is a no-brainer, people.
I'm sorry for the rant, but I have to say it is just so obvious.
Who wouldn't want free land?
More on illegals
Why is the Martin County Sheriffs Department catering to
the illegal immigrants living in Indiantown?
Is Indiantown now a sanctuary city of Martin County?
The sheriffs department should be enforcing our federal
laws, reporting them to them to the federal authorities, and
then deporting them.
They are becoming a drain on our national security, and
add to the costs of local residents.
You can't have it both ways
I have seen and heard a lot of ridiculous things since I
moved to Florida, six year ago.
The most ridiculous proposal that I have heard lately is that
Stuart and Martin County officials are considering a
temporary rate hike for water services, because declining
water consumption hurts the revenues of the local govern-
ments.
You can't have it both ways. Penalize the homeowners that
disregard watering restrictions, not the homeowners that
conserve.


ARE PEACOCKS BElNi



VCTIMIZED IN RIO?


Solar energy
I recently read we are spending millions for energy for a
few county buildings, and yet there is not one solar panel
being installed on any of the new community and govern-
ment buildings now being built in our county.
Almost prohibitive restrictions have been lobbied by FPL
for solar panel installations, but even so, once the installa-
tion is made, the energy is free, and there is little mainte-
nance.
We, at last, have a governor who has set aside millions for
alternative energy. It is the responsibility of the county
commissioners to step in, and guide us into a future not'
dependent on coal, gas, and gasoline for all of our energy
needs.
Every new government, community and service building
should be powered by solar energy.
Every developer should only be able to build homes
powered by solar energy.
Within three years, there will be sufficient electric vehicles
to fill our transportation needs.
While there is another massive coal burning generator
plant being built in a neighboring county, we should take
the lead now to protect our future, and hold our county
people responsible if we don't.
After all we are "The Sunshine State Stop the bleeding
Still giving us the business
Well, the insurance companies are still giving us the
business.
I thought that after the state said rates would not be
able to go up crazy amounts, that we would at least see
some kind of sanity.
I was quickly shown that it was all smoke and mirrors.
My insurance went from $2,100 to more than $4,000 this
year.
I called the Governor's office to complain. They agreed
that it should not have happened, took the information,
and transferred me to the insurance commissioner's
office.
At this point I was told two things that really disturbed
me. All right, I was really ticked!
I was told first, that I should consider myself lucky that
I even had insurance; second, that State Farm side-
stepped the lawmakers' decision, and went to federal
arbitration so they did not have to abide by that ruling.
His exact words were, "they went over our heads to the
federal government, and got their way." I think that if
they threaten to pull out, let them.
How can they just drop people, or double, double, rates
for no real reason, except to alleviate their risk?
Why doesn't Mr. Crist tell them: If you want to pull out,
fine, but pull everything out, no more car, life, health -
nothing. You want to go, then go, but you will not be
allowed to discriminate against the residents. You will
also not be able
to make any money in Florida.
There are a lot of people moving out of Florida because
they just can't afford it.
Somebody has to stop the bleeding because the band-
aid has failed.,
Editor's Note: State Farm was contacted, but did not
respond to this rant.


Post office problems
Here we go again with unacceptable management
practices at the post office.
I am a city carrier. I always hear customers complaining
that here are not enough clerks, there are long lines in the
lobby, and that the mail is being delivered late.
The post office continues the practice of understaffing,
and refusing to hire necessary help to get the job done
correctly.
Please don't blame the employees that do their best every
day. It is not their fault, and they do try their best to provide
customer service in every way they can.
Carriers work hard, and we are proud to wear out blue
uniforms. Our raises do not coincide with stamp price
increases. Our union contract has been up for renewal
since November of 2006, and has been in negotiation since.
It will be going through arbitration in the next few months.
One of the big disagreements we have is the practice of
hiring unqualified help. We have seen what this practice can
do to mail service.
Some if these contract workers have not been delivering
mail, taking it home on Saturdays, and delivering it on
Sunday, or not at all.
Some o them have been hired without even going through
security checks. They are hired for less pay, and no benefits.
Do you want someone with those credentials delivering
your mail?
It is likely carriers will be out picketing some time in June.
We would appreciate support from our customers. We
know how important your mail is to you, and feel you
should have qualified carriers ensuring your delivery.
Why do they call it waste?
Walking around my neighborhood, I see numerous items
being put out for trash collection.
Some of these items, such as furniture, bicycles, tools, and
toys are in good condition, and could be donated to various
charities, like Hibiscus House, the Disabled Veterans, or the
Salvation Army for the less fortunate to use, or for others to
buy.
This is what I do. I also donate my books and magazines
to the Veterans Administration and local hospitals for others
to enjoy.
Otherwise, it just goes to the landfill.
Why do you thiik they call it waste?
James Tucker's column
This is in response to James Tucker's "To be loved at last.
Some of us have broken through the labyrinth ofestab- I
lished thinking patterns to seek the wisdoms and the truths
of the far distant past.
We seek to know who could have built those nearly perfect
pyramids, not only in Egypt, but also in the Americas,
China, Thailand, and Japan.
We seek to know who were these so-called gods and
goddesses, and what did they represent.
We seek to understand the mysteries of the daily evening
sky, and the messages from the stellar galaxies, which were
studied, analyzed, and explained by ancestral wise women
and wise men.
We seek to practice the very ancient ways of healing using

From page A6
pure herbs, flowers, roots, plants, etc. that helped our
ancient relatives to be healthy so that, today, you and I are
here.
Some of us seek to put in practice successful discoveries,
such as those of Nicole Tesla, and want to begin to tap the
ether of the universe for our clean energy uses.
In our attempts to better humanity, we each seek to be
loved and heard.
Maybe soon we can be loved and heard, rather than being
chastised and hunted down with such wonders as James
Tucker who write the Spirit Guide column, and with the ,
Hometown News helping his rational, loving thoughts to
reach thousands of people.
Guest worker program

Shut the borders, close the doors, and let no more in.
They are here, get them, and make them spend two years
in the service fighting for this country. If they make it back
alive, then maybe they can become citizens.
Let them learn to speak English, put down the weedwack-
er, and pick up a gun.
Transportation is lacking

I would like to know, with all the interest in attracting
seniors to the so-called "Treasure Coast," why someone
in authority hasn't had sense enough to build rails that
they could ride to shop and sightsee, instead of pushing
new lanes on the freeways.
The United States of America is supposed to be so far
ahead of other countries. Anyone who has been to
Europe knows this is not true.
American businessmen have told me that, while there,
they did not need a car at all due to the great transporta-
tion on rails and rivers, which I saw personally in Ger-
many.
This would not appeal to our oilmen, right?
Time for a rave

This is about the Hometown Newspaper.
Your religious columnist, Pastor David Goode, gives
more spiritual guidance than any church mass I have
ever attended. His interesting and easy teachings of
Jesus could benefit everyone of all ages, religions, male
or female.
I, personally,.have cut out several columns and mailed
them to my daughter and two grandsons in Texas.
At 13- and 16-years-old they look forward to the easy
reading of such an important subject.
As I look around the world today, I wish everyone could
read this column, especially the teenagers, for they are
the future.
If Pastor Goode heals, or enlightens just one reader a
week, we would have a safer and happier Treasure Coast.
Maybe he is the treasure of our coast.
Please continue to publish his columns, for I believe it
reaches many unsung readers.


Immigration reform bill

I would like to make a comment on the U.S. Senate, and
the immigration reform bill.
I can honestly say that at being 55 years old, and watching
these politicians, 1 cannot believe that they are so full of hot
air.
All they want to do is hear themselves speak. This is not a
hard thing to get through their minds, and their brains.
Just close the borders, round everybody up who is illegal
and doesn't belong here, and send him or her back to their
country.
Then let them come back the right way.
It's not that hard. I just can't understand how these people
can stand there and bull crap us the way they are doing.
It is totally ludicrous that in this country, we are paying
these politicians this kind of money to do hot air balloon
acts.
Obese personnel

To the person who wrote of medical workers being obese, I
have noticed the very same thing.
I wonder if it is because of thankful patients bringing in,
cookies, donuts, and such, to show appreciation to the staff?
I also serve the public, and I'll tell you, that is what most
people bring us.
One time a fellow brought in frozen yogurt, and we have
one other customer who brings us bags of fruit. I feel those
are much more helpful to maintain our health and energy
levels in order to serve the public better.
Pull up your pants

To the person who asked parents to "teach" our children
to pull up their pants, your comment sounds facetious,
bordering on obnoxious. You sound no better than the
children you write of.
Go with the flow

In response to the rant entitled, "Would it be so bad."
You must be living in a dream world. I.guess you are as old
as I am, but I go with the flow.
After I wrote my article I thought the subject of "snow-
birds" was closed.
This article of yours sounds like discrimination against
your own countrymen.
You must have plenty of money to be complaining about
making reservations three weeks ahead, and the roadways
on Memorial Day. Your "own" Floridians sure make good use
of it.
I guess they are richer than most of us, to be able to pay
such high prices for gasoline.
You can bet there will be lots of road rage going on.
Since your time has stood still for many years, let me
remind you that we live in the year 2007.
Wake up.
Seniors can help

I am a senior, and I want to say something to the other
seniors.
We can help out in this drought season. We can get up,
and go out to water a tree, or the bushes, or plants.


These are not going to come back.
The grass eventually will come back; it would only
need seed to get that going again.
If we lose these little trees, and these nice high hibiscus
bushes, it's going to take years to get them back again.
So, if you have extra water in your sink, or you've got
some bottled water left, go out and give that little bush a
drink.
We can strive to not waste any water inside.
I've cut the water down in my bathroom sink. One just
has to turn the valve underneath the sink down halfway.
There is no need for that big amount of water coming
out of the faucet just to brush our teeth, or wash our
face.
We seniors have a lot more time than the younger
people do. They are busy with the children, and their
jobs and things like that.
We can get out and help, and it would be good exercise
for us.
Don't try to go out with a gallon of water, just take a small
amount of water, and make several trips. Take a plastic
container and fill it half full, so it won't be too heavy.
You'll enjoy it. If you have a little trouble walking, that's
OK. You'll make it, and the plants will appreciate it.
We can also try to save electricity.
I started to reduce the electricity in my bathroom. One
doesn't have to go in and turn the fan on, and have all the
lights turn on. Don't do that.
Get a little, tiny boudoir lamp, and set it on the counter,
or a couple little small bulbs for the overhead lamps.
The range can be turned off at least a minute and a half
earlier than normal. The heat is still coming out during
that time, while you are still cooking things.
Use a nightlight in the bathroom, and in the kitchen, so
when you go out there for small things in the evening you
don't turn on that big fluorescent light. You can put a little
nightlight on either side of the stove or on the wall.
Plan ahead with the refrigerator. Don't open and close it
all of the time.
Have a clothes rack for drying personal clothes and
things.
Only run.the dishwasher for full loads, if you use it at all.
I wash my dishes three times a day. It's easy.
Look for dripping or leaky faucets, reduce oven use, and
reduce air conditioning somewhat.
There are some shady times of the morning where
maybe it is not needed for an hour or so. That hour a day
will help, as the month goes on.
Reduce the use of ceiling fans. They use a lot of electrici-
ty. Use small floor fans, instead.
Try not to turn on lights when they are not necessary.
Sometimes, it is just habit. We walk in a room and reach
over and turn on the light, when we really don't need it.
Some of the large companies, and malls with all those
spotlights on, when the sun is still shining, should think
about that, too. Many times that could be cut down by
several hours a day.
Different businesses could take it a little easier, and cut
some lights here and there, especially the car lots.
These are things that I have been thinking about, and I
wanted to pass them along.

Five Fort Pierce teens


charged in Stuart incident


involving firearms


BY RITA HART
Staff writer
STUART In what
appears to be a possible
gang-related incident,
two female Stuart teens
"just hanging out" near
the 10th Street Recre-
ation Center, were threat-
ened by five males in a
car brandishing
weapons.
In the early evening of
May 21, the males drove
up to the girls in a silver
four-door car and asked,
"Where the boys at?"
The girls laughed at

"The Fort Pierce police department is doing
a great job of tightening the noose on gang-
related activities ..."

this, but what happened
next, the girls told police
later, made them fear for
their lives, as the male in
the front passenger seat
and another in the rear
r passenger seat pulled out
silver handguns, pointed
them at the girls and
began yelling and
screaming at them.
The car then drove
away, and the girls
flagged down a nearby
Martin County Sheriff's
deputy who was in the
area.
The girls told police
that throughout the inci-
dent, all five male pas-
sengers were bragging to
them about their involve-
ment in a gang shooting
in Fort Pierce.
A short time later, Mar-
tin County Sheriff's
deputies stopped a four-
door silver Hyundai
Sonata in the area of
Church Street and
Bahama Avenue in Stu-
art. Also responding were,
Stuart police officers.
Found inside the vehi-
cle were a loaded .25 cal-
iber handgun and a
loaded .38 caliber
revolver, with serial num-
bers removed. According
to the Stuart police
report, the guns were
easily accessible to all
five passengers in the car.
All five of the males
charged in the Stuart
incident are Fort Pierce
residents.
Sgt. Marty Jacobson,
spokesman for the Stuart
Police Department, said
this type of incident is an
on-going issue on the
Treasure Coast.
"The Fort Pierce police
department is doing a
great job of tightening
the noose on gang-relat-
ed activities, through
things like the Weed and
Seed program and bike
patrols. So it's pretty hot
up there right now," said
Sgt. Jacobsen.
Port St. Lucie Police
Department spokesman
Robert Vega said his
department has also been
proactive in addressing


gang activity.
"We formed a gang unit
about a year ago because
we were starting to see
youth wanting to become
members of gangs," said
Officer Vega.
He added that some of
the department's actions
include working closely
with juvenile probation
officers and school
resource officers, moni-
toring curfews of those
on probation, and the
presence of off-duty
police officers hired to
patrol areas where youth
congregate, such as the
Rave Theatre and Super-
Play USA.
The individuals charged
in the May 21 Stuart inci-
dent are:
eGary Dejaun Brown,
17, 1901 N. 49th St.,
charged with possession
of a firearm by a minor,
aggravated assault with a
deadly weapon and pos-
session of a firearm with

The islands of the Trea-

should prepare now.
That's one of the mes-
sages from Florida
Atlantic University's Cen-
ter for Urban and Envi-
ronmental Solutions,
which last week
announced findings from
a lengthy study on hurri-.
cane vulnerability and
the impacts of hurricanes
Frances and Jeanne.
Based on her report,
FAU senior research fel-
low Ana Puszkin-Chevlin
recommended invest-
ment in hardening and
upgrading infrastructure
and properties on the
barrier islands of Martin,
St. Lucie and Indian River
counties now instead of
post-disaster.

. Following the 2004 hur-
ricanes, the Federal
Emergency Management
Agency provided $164.7
million in individual
assistance grants
throughout the region,
including $12.5 million,
or 8 percent, to barrier
island residents. Many of
these residents lived in
homes that were not built
up to snuff.
The study shows that 83
percent of the structures
on-the island prior to the
hurricanes were built
before the 2001 building
code went into effect.
"We have a lot of older
infrastructure with cer-
tain vulnerabilities," Ms.
Puszkin-Chevlin said.
One of the major vul-
nerabilities is flooding.
The Treasure Coast's
barrier islands consist of
31,709 acres valued at
$31.99 billion. Of that
land, 20,346 acres are
undeveloped. The devel-
oped parcels alone have a
tax assessed value of $27
billion, which, in 2004,
represented nearly 39
percent of all the
assessed value in the
three counties.
Still, of the 25,227
parcels on the islands,
15,382 are in the flood
zone, including 3,110
structures that were built
before detailed flood
hazard data and flood
elevations were known,
meaning they were not
built with flood protec-
tion in mind.
"We have to find pro-
grams to retrofit the cur-
rent housing inventory,"
Ms. Puszkin-Chevlin
said. "If we can do things
in advance, preemptively,
we're going to do much
better."
Along with readying
barrier island homes, the
study urges local govern-
ments to examine emer-
gency management *
strategies.
Ms. Puszkin-Chevlin
said she found that post-
disaster plans are located
in numerous locations,
and the directions aren't
often clear.
"We don't have a coher-
ent vision in all cases as
to what to do," she said.
"Sometimes these things
are in conflict, and
they're not well integrat-
ed."
Further, she said local*
communities should
base their emergency
management plans not
on the average hurricane,
but on the range, which
includes category 1 all


the way through a worst-
case-scenario storm like
Hurricane Katrina.
So if a category 4 or 5
hurricane were to hit and
displace thousands of
barrier island residents,
where would they go?
"We can't just look at
shelters," Ms. Puszkin-
Chevlin said. "We have to
look at short-term hous-
ing that's more perma-
nent than a shelter."
As development contin-
ues, more people will
move to the island,
meaning more people
would have to evacuate
before a storm, which is
another aspect addressed
in the study.
As this area has experi-
enced first hand, hurri-
canes damage more than
just people's homes.
The Tieasure Coast's
coastal economy was
about $12 billion in 2005.
Some businesses in the
study area, including 12
hotels, never reopened
after Frances and Jeanne,
which leads to another
- study recommendation.
"We have to network
businesses on -he island
with businesses on the
mainland," Ms. Puszkin-
Chevlin said, noting that
the island businesses
could use temporary
space and resources on
the mainland during the
recovery period.
Further, she said
portable businesses,
such as canoe rentals,
should be allowecon the
islands.
"These kind ol busi-
nesses are gocl for
tourism, and wien a
storm comes, they can
put their stuff in z truck
and go," she said.
The hurricanes didn't
impact tourism as much
as anticipated, the report
states. However, marinas
were hard hit and ae still
struggling with mairaging
insurance prerriums
while at the same time
remaining competitive.
"Insurance premuims
have more than lou-
bled," said lean
Kubitschek, manage of
the Fort Pierce City IVari-
na. "It's tough to afford
insurance. A lot of niri-
nas are going 4lf-
insured or redu'ng
insurance, if they aan
even get insurance." )
Boat insurance is aso
now tougher to get tian
it was in 2004 for maiy
vessels, he said.

"Those systems need

In all, the message of
the study is, "The vulner-

said.

By Kim COTTON
Staff writer
PORT ST LUCIE Resi-
dents of the Treasure
Coast, get ready to shop.
Starting this summer
with the opening of Target,
western Port St, Lucie will
become a mecca for retail
shoppers.
The Landing at Tradition,
the second shopping desti-
nation in the development
west of Interstate 95, is
anchored by Target and is
scheduled to open July 29.
Soon after, 29 other retail-
ers will open their doors
within 30 to 60 days.

outlet mall will be a
regional mall, which is
expected to open in 2011.
The mall's developer,
Taubman Centers, has yet
to announce the stores
that will be housed at the
center.
Mrs. Christensen said
two businesses citizens
have requested are Kohls
and The Cheesecake Fac-
tory.
All of the retail coming to
western Port St. Lucie will
give 'residents more than
just shopping opportuni-
ties. Jobs also come with
the businesses.
Mayor Christensen said
the stores will provide
employment for area
teenagers, who she said
tiare crying out for jobs."
She added thatthere will
be plenty of opportunity
for higher-paid'positions,
as well.
"We're looking, at 100 6r
more managerial jobs. that
are higher-payijig Jobs,"
Mayor Christenen' said'.
"For those people who
haven't tried it, I advise
them to tnr i i. I've'Uone it."
The retail centers will not
only bring needed jobs,
but also bring in additional
sales and property tax rev-
enue.
,"Everybody is concerned
about, property tax, and
this adds another revenue
stream," Mayor Chris-
tensen said. _'Arid, with,
more commercial prope rty
tax, it will reduce our need
to tax residents."
City Manager Dori, Coop-
er said revenue from sales'
tax is divided three, ways I
between the state, county,
and city, and is based on
population.. He said it is
unknown at this time how
much the city may bring in
from the growth in retail
businesses.


Communities, said nearly
all of the space has been
leased in The Landing,
prompting Tradition's
developer to begin con-
structing more commer,
cial spots.
"Only 3 percent is not
-spoken *for, and because
we are nearly at capacity,
we're moving ahead with
Village Pointe, which is
350,000 square feet of
retail," said Mrs. Mrozek.
"It's a mixed-use project,
with a discount anchor
(such as a KohIs or JC Pen-
ney) on one end and the
other anchor an
amphitheater for events."
The Landing fronts 1-95,
north of Tradition Parkway
and Village Pointe, and is
south of the parkway,
across from Torrey Pines
Institute for Molecular
Studies. All of it is only sev-
eral miles from Martin


County and easily accessi-
ble from the interstate.
While Mrs. Mrozek is still
looking for tenants for Vil-
lage Pointe, there are a
number of national com-
panies opening stores in
The Landing. Bed, Bath &.
Beyond, Babies R Us, Pier
1, Sports Authority and TJ
Maxx will be some of the
stores surrounding Target.
Several restaurants are
also planned in the vicini-
ty, including a lakefront
upscale restaurant. Mrs.
Mrozek said she is still in
negotiations with several
restaurant owners to fill
that building.
" We hand-pick our
tenets so they are different
ftom everyplace else," Mrs.
Mrozek said. "With the
restaurant, we are looking'
for something a little
unique, something we can
partner with that is local,"
similar to Palm City Grill."
Outside of the center of
RaditiorYs retail area, two
major centers are planned,
a mall and outlet mall to be
developed by Tanger Fac-
toiy Outlet Centers.
"Tanger Outlet will be a
nice addition to all th&
other retail coming in,"
said Mayor Patricia Chris-
tensen. "Tanger said if it
could be accomplished,
they would like to be open
by this holiday season. If
not, then they could open
by early spring."
Tanger Factory Outlet
Centers is based in. North
Carolina, and houses
numerous high-end outlet
shops, such es Abercrom-
bie & Fitch, Ann Taylor
Factory Store, J. Crew and,
KB Toys Outlet. Mayor
Christensen said Tanger
outlets centers are similar
to the outlet mall in Vero
Beach.

Prepare for hurricane season by stocking up on right food


Unbelievable as it
may seem, hurri-
cane season is just
around the corner.
Last year was a blessing,
but we'll never forget '04
and '05.
Living without all the
comforts of home is
difficult to impossible.
Maybe this article will
give you some ideas to
help you get through it.

Obey your thirst

We all know you must
stock up on water, since no
power means no water.
That Internet warning
against freezing bottled
water was untrue. When a
hurricane is coming, pack
your freezer with bottled
water or bottles of water. A
full freezer will keep foods
colder longer.
Liquid expands when
frozen. If using glass jars,
fill to only 1 inch from the
top.

Sterilize old jugs

If you're like me, you
have at least a dozen
empty gallons in the
garage just ready to fill
with water.
There is probably some
condensation, as well as
harmful bacteria trapped
inside.
Refilling a gallon over
and over is fine as long as
months haven't gone by.
If it has, fill the old gallon
jug with hot tap water to
which you have added
1/4 teaspoon chlorine
bleach; let sit for 10
minutes. Shake vigorous-
ly. Pour out water and
wash and rinse several
times until no bubbles
appear. Cleanthe t ops
the same way.
When storing the
gallons, do not cover.
Place a towel across the
top and let remaining
moisture evaporate. Dry
tops and place them in a
plastic bag. If this is too
much trouble, buy fresh
gallons of water and toss
the old ones.

Feel the heat

Make sure your grill's gas
tank is full and have a
back-up tank just in case.
If charcoal is your choice,
buy early and buy plenty.
Consider buying a
portable tabletop stove
that is powered by cans of
butane fuel.
I have one and believe
me, it wasa lifesaver.
Save your good pots and
pans. Check out thrift
stores or garage sales for
old pots to use on your gas
or charcoal grill.
Keep a lookout for
battery-powered fans;
they'll prove to be life-
savers.

What is safe to eat

The most perishable
foods are ground meat,
seafood, poultry and pork.
Beef steaks and roasts
will keep longer since
they're aged before you
buy them, and grilling will
kill bacteria.
If freezer foods are still
cold, use them; if warm,
toss.
When hurricane season
approaches, don't stock up
on great buys, buy only
what's necessary.
The way you package
foods for the freezer will
determine how long they
will stay cold. Leave meat
in the store package, wrap
in foil, sealing tightly and
then use plastic wrap or
bags. For other meats that
are not pre-packaged,
wrap in butcher paper
then foil and lastly, plastic.
Do the same with frozen
vegetables and fruit.

Stocking up

Anything that is made
with vinegar, such as salad
dressing, mustard, pickles,
ketchup can survive
without refrigeration.
I can't believe I'm saying
this, but stock up on jarred
spaghetti sauce, especially
those made with meat, it's
wonderful on polenta.
Buy skim milk powder
and quarts of milk sold on
(non-refrigerated) store
shelves. They're hermeti-
cally sealed and need no
refrigeration.


Stock up on evaporated
milk, canned tuna, canned
chicken, canned baby
clams, clam juice, canned
broth, soups, Italian grated
cheese, packaged Ameri-
can cheese, every kind of
canned dinners and
vegetables you can think
of, canned fruits, potatoes
(fresh and canned),
onions, fresh garlic,
peanut butter, jelly, instant
rice, instant potatoes,
Ramen noodles and of
course, bread.
Quick tip: Prior to a
storm, cook assorted
pastas until al dente, rinse
in cold water and freeze.
To use, simply heat water
on the grill and add pasta
to heat.

Cooking help
One of the perks of being
a food columnist is the free
books you receive from
local authors.
Daphne Nikolopoulos is
author of "The Storm
Guide," which tells how to
create extraordinary meals
without electricity. The
book contains very unusu-
al and delicious sounding
choices. The book is
available at Target and
most bookstores and
online at
www.amazon.com or at
Pineapple Press, (800) 746-
3275.

Dinner ideas

Linguini with clams.
Campfire stew.
Chicken curry made
with instant rice.
Creamed tuna on toast.
Salmon croquettes in a

Additions to meats

Potato pancakes with
applesauce.
Potato croquettes made

* Polenta (corn meal

1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon black
pepper
Few shakes crushed red
pepper
Several sprigs fresh
parsley, chopped or 1
tablespoon dried


Cooked and heated
linguini or spaghetti
Peel and chop garlic,
reserving half.
NOTE: The longer garlic
cooks, the more flavor it
loses; therefore, we will start
our sauce with half the garlic
and add the rest at the end
to get the flavor we want.


I don't usually use salt
since the clams may be salty.
Taste and add salt if neces-
sary.
Brown garlic lightly, in oil,
remove from heat. Add the
clam juice, juice from baby
clams, liquid from mush-
rooms, oregano and the
peppers.
Return to heat and bring


to a boil.
Coarsely chop mush-
rooms and add to sauce.
Cover and cook over low
heat.
Ten minutes before
serving, add the clams,
remaining garlic and
parsley to the sauce.
Cook for 10 minutes.
Serve on pasta.

Dealership owners are accountable


Congress passed a
law a few years ago
that really shook up
publicly owned compa-'
nies. It's called Sarbanes-
Oxley, named after the
Congressmen who
sponsored the bill.
Basically, this law says
that the CEO and other
high-echelon manage-
ment of a publicly owned
company cannot get off
the hook from wrong
doings because he claims
he didn't know what his
employees were doing. I
believe the same rules
should apply to all
businesses, even if their
stock is not publicly held.
The boss should always
be held accountable for
the actions of his employ-
ees, and this should apply
especially for car dealer-
ships.
Most of the employees
that customers come into
contact with in a car
dealership are paid on
commission. Those
employees get a percent-
age of the profit that the
company makes on the
transaction.
Car sales people,
service sales people (also
called service advisors or
assistant service man-
agers), parts sales people
and the mechanical
technicians who work on
your car, are mostly all
paid on commission.
This method of pay tilts
the relationship between
the customer and
employee in somewhat of
an adversarial manner.
The employee wants the
profit to be as high as
possible, but the cus-
tomer wants it to be low.
In a car dealership that
has talented, fully
engaged and ethical
management, this poten-
tially adversarial relation-
ship is kept in a fair
balance. Without the
oversight of upper and
middle management and


S.--4







EARL STEWART
On Cars


careful hiring practices,
some employees will
exploit a customer to
increase his commission.
What brought the
subject of this column to
mind was a call I received
yesterday from a 78-year-
old widow from Fort
Pierce. She called to
thank me for writing my
column, and to tell me
that she wished she had
read some of my columns
before she bought her
2005 used Mazda.
This was the first car
she had bought on her
own. Her husband had
always taken on this
responsibility. She paid
the dealership a huge
profit on her purchase.
She was sold a mainte-
nance package that she
believed cost only $25
but it really was $2,500..
She was rushed to, sign
the papers at night
because the dealership
was closing. In the
morning, when she
realized the mistake, she
drove back to the dealer-
ship and asked to back
out of the sale but was
told it was too late. She
was told she had signed
all the papers and that
they had already sold her
trade-in, even though she
had not given them the
title. When she asked to
speak to the general
manager, three different
employees identified


themselves as the general
manager. I get a lot of sad
calls like this.
The owner of that
dealership should know
what's going on. I'm
giving him the benefit of
the doubt by saying that
he doesn't know, because
if he does know, it's even
worse.
The owner should look
at the big picture and the
long-term view of his
business. You can take
advantage of customers
and benefit in the short
run, but you eventually
"pay the piper" when
your bad reputation
spreads far enough.
Most of the bad things I
hear about car dealers
from their customers are
not illegal things. They
are simply unethical and
not the way one human
being should treat anoth-
er.
Refusing to refund the
money of an elderly,
widow after she realized
that she had been taken
advantage of is not
illegal, but it sure
"stinks."
Jim Press is the top
executive for Toyota over
all of North America and
he is also the only non-
Japanese to occupy a
place on Toyota's board of
directors. He was quoted
in the book "The Toyota
Way," by Jeffrey Liker, as
saying, "It's what you do
for a customer when you
don't owe him anything
that is the true measure
of character. It's like
sticking up for somebody
who can't defend him-
self."
I really like this quote
and I have it engraved on
a plaque, which I give out
each month to the
employee who wins the
"Above and Beyond"
award. This award goes to
an employee who does
something for her cus-
tomer above and beyond

ast year, we all
breathed a sigh of
relief as the hurri-
canes stayed away.
Human nature being
what it is, we all-tend to
forget the warnings about
preparation and safety.
Many of the injuries,
illnesses and deaths that
follow a storm or extreme
weather, are not from the
storm itself.
Downed power lines,
spoiled food, unsafewater,
hot temperatures and
improper use of genera-
tors are hazards that
remain after the storm has
passed.
Here are some tips to
keep you and your family
safe; others can be found
at the Department of
Health Web site at
www.doh.state.fl.us.
Food safety
If you've lost power and
have any doubt about
whether food is still good,
throw it out.
Discard refrigerated
food if it has been at room
temperature for two hours
or more, or if it has an
unusual odor, color or
texture.
A full cooler will keep
its cold temperature
longer than a partially
filled one; pack it with
extra ice or freezer packs.
Thawed food can
usually be eaten if it is still
"refrigerator cold."
Fight cross-contamina-
tion by not putting food on
a plate or cutting board
where you have put raw
meat, fish or poultry.
If there is any risk to the
water supply, drink and
wash dishes with bottled
water. Don't forget to
protect your pets with safe
water, as well.
Water safety
If your area is under boil
water advisory, you can
drink bottled water. There
are ways to make your tap
water safe.
Bring water to a full
rolling boil for at least 1
minute to kill most germs.
For areas without power,
disinfect the tap water by
adding eight drops, or
about 1/8 teaspoon of
plain, unscented bleach

Generator safety
Generators can be
really helpful if the power
is out, but they are
dangerous if not used
correctly.
Most of the injuries and
deaths come from
carbon monoxide poi-
soning from generators
used improperly.
Never use generators in
enclosed or partially
enclosed spaces, even
with fans or windows
open.
Carbon monoxide
levels can rise very
quickly and are invisible
and odorless.
If you start to feel dizzy,
sick or weak while using
a generator, get fresh air
immediately. Death from
carbon monoxide poi-
soning can be rapid.
If you have symptoms
while indoors, get med-
ical attention and make
sure the fire department
determines when it is
safe to re-enter a build-
ing.
Install battery-operated
carbon monoxide alarms.
For more tips on gener-
ator safety, visit the
Consumer Product Safety
Commission Web site at
www.cpsc.gov.
We hope that nature is
better to us this year, but
if we do have a storm or a
hurricane, remember
that the aftermath can be
as dangerous as the
storm itself.

Preparing your yard for hurricane season


SA th seven major
\/\/ storms forecasted
V Y for the season and
a 64 percent probability of
an east coast landfall, the
odds arwee will experience
some sort of tropical
activity.
With this in mind, it is not
too early to plan your
landscape so that in the
event of a storm, you don't
have to scramble to get it
ready.
With careful planning,
getting ready for a storm
does not have to be so
draining.

Clean up

The first thing you should
do before hurricane season
starts is to trim trees and
bushes.
Get rid of any foliage that
is dead or might be hanging
over your house. If you have
any dead or weak trees from
last year's storms, cut them
down so they don't have a
chance to do damage this
year.

Make a list

Take a tour of your yard
and make a list of items that
would be dangerous to
leave lying around.
This should include patio
furniture, loose garden
ornaments, small potted
plants, yard torches, arbors
and even gas grills.
Use this list to know what
you will have to move.
If you have a shed or
gazebo, you might want to
add tie downs to be sure
they stay put and don't wind
up in Kansas.
You can start early by
limiting what you keep out
in your yard during the peak
months of August and
September.
If you own a swimming
pool, you can throw all your
patio furniture into the pool
to help keep it from travel-


ing across the state.


Wind-resistant plants

There are many plants you
can use that are attractive
and hold up fairly well
during a hurricane.
Hibiscus, plumbago,
firecracker plant, ixoria, and
even my roses seemed to
hold up very well during our
past hurricanes.
You may also want to
consider some native plant
varieties such as palmetto
bush, passionflower, azalea
bush, wax myrtle, live Oak
and Southern Magnolia.
Native plants are used to
the high winds that can hit
during hurricane season
since they have been
around our area for so many
years.

Salt resistant varieties

If you live near the ocean,
planting becomes more of a
challenge, because you
need to have plants that are
resistant to salt spray.
Remember that a hurri-
cane can carry the ocean
mist far inland with its 70-
plus mile per hour winds.
Plant varieties, such as
Indian Hawthorne, saw
palmetto, confederate
jasmine, society garlic,
daylily, pittisporum,
oleander and Mexican
petunia do very well in areas
where salt spray can be a
problem.
Gardenia plants also can
fare well with less than 25
percent damage and full
recovery after one growing
season.

Tree measurements

When planning your
landscape, if you are going
to plant large trees, you
should always keep the
distance from the tree to the
house greater than the
height of the tree when it is


5J,

full grown.
If you have any trees that
are weak or leaning, either
have them secured or
remove them if they are
within striking distance of
your home.
Also, look for exposed
roots.
If the soil has been washed
away from the roots of your
trees, the root structure may
be weakened and allow the
tree to topple easily.
Fill in these areas with soil
back to the original ground
level.
As you can see, with a few
common-sense tips and
some good planning, you
can have an attractive and
safe yard this hurricane
season.
Remember, your yard is
not the only place that
needs preparation before
hurricane season starts.
Have all your hurricane
supplies and plans in place
on or before June 1.

"CAR DEALERS

EARL STEWART s

PiR


An Open Letter to Florida Car Dealers.
Eliminate the "Dealer Fee".


Fellow Florida Car Dealers, if you don't
know me, I should tell you that I don't profess
to be some "holier than thou" car dealer who
was always perfect for the past 38 years.
When I look at some of my past advertising
and sales tactics, I am not always proud.
But I have evolved as my customers have
evolved. My customers' expectations, level
of education and sophistication are much
higher today. Your customers are no different.
My remarks are made sincerely and with a
positive intent toward you and your custom-
ers. I am not trying to tell you
how to run your business. I "My cu
am suggesting a change that
will reward both you and your expect at
customers.


EMPLOYMENT
If our culture
sounds like one
that fits with your
ideas on the way
business should
be conducted,
please call us.

Virtually every car dealer Of eaucN
In Florida adds a charge to
the price of cars he sells, a Sophistic
"dealer fee/doc fee/dealer
prep" fee ranging from $500 much hig
to nearly $1,000. This extra
charge is programmed into
your computer. It has been made illegal in
many states including California, but is still
legal in Florida. The reason you charge this
fee is simply to increase the price of the car
and your profit in such a manner that it is not
noticed by your customers. This is just plain
wrong. I used to charge a dealer fee ($495)
and when I stopped charging it a few years
ago it was scary. But I did it because I could
no longer, in good conscience, mislead my
customers. Just because everybody else
was doing the same thing, did not make it
correct.


Now, here Is the good news. After eliminat-
ing the dealer fee my profit per car did drop
by about the amount of the dealer fee, but
my customers realized I was now giving them
a fair shake and quoting a complete out-the-
door price with no "surprises", And the word
spread. My volume of car sales began to rise
rapidly. Sure, I was making a few hundred'
dollars less per car, but I was selling a lot
more cars. I was and am selling cars to many
of your former customers. My bottom line
has improved, not because I eliminated the
dealer fee, but because I was
stomiers' able to earn the trust of more
customers in buying their new
ions, level or used car, You can do the
same.
ition and Why am I writing this letter?
I'm not going to tell you that
-ation are I think of myself as the new
"sheriff' that has come to
her today." clean up South Florida", In
fact, I am well aware that this
letter is, to some extent, self-
serving. Many people will read this letter and
learn why they should buy a car from me,
and not you. And, I am also aware that most
dealers who read this will either get angry and
ignore it or not have the courage to follow my
lead. But maybe you will be the exception. If
you have any interest in following my lead,
call me anytime. I don't have a secretary and
I don't screen any of my phone calls. I would
love to chat with you about this.
Sincerely,
Earl Stewart Earl Stvwart Toyota

Don't be in great big hurry to buy latest operating system


It's been a few months
now since Microsoft
released Vista, its new
operating system, and the
questions are starting to
trickle in.
Every time a new operat-
ing system gets released,
we go through this, and
the questions don't seem
to change much.
The most often asked
question seems to be,
"Should I upgrade now?"
My answer at this point is
to wait.
In the mid 1990s,
Microsoft went from
Windows 3.1 (a graphical
"shell" that sat on top of
the real operating system
at that time, DOS) to
Windows 95, and people
asked the same thing.
Then again, in the late
1990s, we went from.
Windows 95 to Windows
98 and got flooded with
the same question.


Shortly after that we
went from Windows 98 to
Windows ME (remember
that one?) and the pattern
repeated itself.
Next came Windows
2000, Windows XP and
now, finally, Vista.
It seems people always
want to jump on the band-
wagon and upgrade as
soon as a new operating
system is released.
My answer is always the
same: "No, not yet. Wait a
bit."
So why is that?
My reasoning lies in the
fact that when these new
operating systems are
released, they are not quite
finished yet. We need to
give it some time for them
to work out the bugs.
Let me explain.
Whenever a new operat-
ing system is released, it
has gone through exten-
sive testing at Microsoft


SEAN MCCARTHY
Compute This

and for all intents and
purposes, is finished.
The problem is, it's pretty
much impossible to test a
program as big as an
operating system in every
conceivable configuration
with every piece of hard-
ware out there and make
sure it's able to manage
every piece of software
people are liable to try to


run.
So, what do they do?
They get the new soft-
ware running as best they
can and then make it
available to the public.
Then, over the course of
the next year or so, they
take all of the most com-
monly reported problems
and release patches or
"service packs" that fix
whatever issues they were
able to figure out.
The process continues
with users reporting
problems (minor glitches
all the way up to serious
show-stopping errors) and
engineers correcting the
problems and publishing
the fixes in additional
service packs and updates.
The first people who run
the new operating system
get to be the guinea pigs
and that's just how it's
always been.
With that in mind, the


next question I am usually
asked is when to upgrade.
I advise people to give it at
least a year or more after the
release. Let someone else do
the testing, especially if you
rely on your machine to get
your work done.
The last thing I want to
do is get interrupted by
unexpected errors that no
one has an answer for yet
while trying to get some
work done.
By giving it a year or so,
you give the engineers
time to stabilize the
software and, hopefully,
correct most of the major
errors that made it out in
the initial release.
Another thing to consid-
er is that the current
operating system (in this
case XP) has already gone*
through this refining
process and is usually
pretty stable by now.
That's an important


consideration to keep in
mind, especially if you use
your machine for impor-
tant tasks.
Does this mean I don't
recommend anyone
switch to the new operat-
ing system at this time?
No, we need someone to
run the system or how will
they ever work out all of
the bugs?
If you are a casual
computer user and are not
relying on your machine
for important "critical"
tasks, or if you can afford
to risk rendering your
machine unusable for a
bit, while you trouble-
shoot and correct some
weird problem no one has
seen before, then go for it.
Someone has to do it,
right?

Sean McCarthy has
worked with computers
since 1978.

Hurricane season is here. It's time to check your
generator before a storm approaches. Hopefully
you've maintained your equipment. We recommend
starting your generator every six weeks and plugging
an electrical device into the receptacles (run 20 min-
utes). This will keep the genset "excited" and ready to
produce electricity. We recommend changing the
engine oil every forty hours (10W30 or 30W detergent
oil is recommended). Always keep gas tank full and use
stabilizer. Always turn off fuel supply when transport-
ing or storing unit. Check air filter and change as need-
ed. Spark plugs should be changed every other oil ,
change. -

* Certified Mold Treatment uses the newest exclusive technology to
purify your entire home and its contents. When done and most homes
* can be treated in one day, the entire home is clean and pure with all
* mold, bacteria and odors destroyed in a manner that does no harm to any
furniture or the structure itself.
* How is this possible? Well, we invented and manufacture a superior
ozone generator used worldwide and we mounted it in a van which
* allows us to bring it to your home. Ozone is generated on site and is the
purifier of choice of over 900 water companies here in the USA. It destroys
molds, bacteria and virus's and is safe to use. No chemicals or residual
* odors, no destructive dismantling and yet all is purified.
Palm Beach uses ozone to make all their drinking water and so does
* Orlando. We pioneered this innovative and effective method to save your
home and your health. it makes sense and is extremely effective.
Remember this, 24,000 mold spores can fit on a US postage stamp
and all they need to reproduce is water. Water can be in the form of
humidity at 65% and above and also when you turn your AC to a tem-
perature in the excess of 77F. Our advice is to set the thermostat to 76F o
and enjoy your home; after all you do not want to start a mushroom farm co
do you? e

invited

to 'Oliver'

BY SHELLEY KOPPEL
Entertainment writer
Last year, the St. Lucie
School Board's annual
summer show was "Annie"
and there were lots of
roles for girls. This year,
director Patrick Madden
has chosen "Oliver,"
which has lots of roles for
boys, to even the score.
The popular Lionel Bart
show, based on Charles
Dickens' "Oliver Twist,"
can be seen from June 6-
10 at Port St. Lucie High
School.
Mr. Madden, who is also
the Port St. Lucie High
School drama director,
developed the idea of a
community-wide musical
11 years ago with Kevin
Perry, who is now in
school administration.
"Port St. Lucie High
School was the only
school that did musicals
then," Mr. Madden said.
"We wanted to encourage
participation for all kids in
the county."
This year 300 students
from public and private
schools tried out for the
production. Mr. Madden
is very pleased with his
cast.
"What's really cool is
that all the boys will be
played by boys," he says.
"A lot of time girls play
boys, but we had such a
great turnout. It's a very
good cast."
Jose Gomez, a student at
Floresta Elementary
School, will play Oliver.
He follows in illustrious
footsteps; Jay Garcia, who
was in "Bye Bye Birdie,"
the first summer show 11
years ago, has just fin-
ished touring with the off-
Broadway hit "Altar Boyz"
and recently joined the
NewYork cast.
The students rehearsed
four nights a week from 6
p.m. 9 p.m.; when school
let out, rehearsals will run
from 2 p.m. 10 p.m. The
cast runs in age from 8-18
and there are 80 kids at
rehearsals, in addition to
32 in the orchestra and the
backstage crew.
Mr. Madden says it is a
challenge to manage so
many students, but it is
worthwhile because of the
depth of support from the

about the Lyric Theatre


BY SHELLEY KOPPEL
Entertainment writer
John Loesser, executive director of
the Barn Theatre, is easy to spot.
He's the one who always has a base-
ball cap on his head. With the
appointment of his long-time friend
and colleague John Wilkes, as the
Lyric's chief operating officer, pin-
stripes and cufflinks will work side
by side with Florida casual.
While the two men may differ in
matters sartorial, they agree on the
passion they share for the theater
and for bringing the best perform-
ers available to the Treasure Coast.
Mr. Wilkes' interest in theater
dates from his college days at St.
Clair College in Windsor, Ontario,
where he was involved in student
government. Part of his responsibil-
ities included providing entertain-
ment on campus.
"There was a lot of talent across
the river in Detroit," he says. "My
approach was to program for the
community, to bridge the gap
between 'town and gown.'"
The experience whetted his
appetite for theater management,
and he worked at the University of
Guelph, Ontario Place, the O'Keefe
Centre for the Performing Arts in
Toronto and the Dalhousie Arts
Centre in Nova Scotia before com-
ing to Sarasota as executive director
of the Van Wezel Performing Arts

Week of 06-01-07

Aries-March 21-April 19
The joy of achievement is the fuel for the fire in
your soul. Nothing thrills you more than seeing
a plan work out that gives joy to yourself and
those in your circle of life. The timing is perfect
to launch the new project you have been
dreaming about. Why? Mars, the protector is
guarding you this week.

Taurus-April 20-May 20
Stay true to yourself, but listen to others with


Hall in 1987.
"I loved Sarasota," he says. "It's
like John (Loesser) here in Stuart. It's
a lifestyle more than a job. You're
there at 8 a.m. until well past mid-
night as part of the business day."
His responsibilities at the Van
Wezel included facility and financial
management, financial planning,
scheduling and booking and mar-
keting and public relations. He
remained at the Van Wezel until
1993, when he became chief operat-
ing officer for the Kravis Center for
the Performing Arts in West Palm
Beach. He left the Kravis in 1997,
producing shows in North America
and Europe, and returned to the Van
Wezel from 2000-2006. In April, John
Loesser lured him to Stuart and the
500-seat Lyric.
He knows the area well and is
even sepping in to help out patrons
of the Sunrise Theatre.
On May 29, David Jenkins, execu-
tive director of the Sunrise in Fort
Pierce, resigned. Mr. Wilkes will
serve as a consultant to the Sunrise
with an emphasis on programming
for the upcoming season. He will
continue in that capacity while a
replacement for Mr. Jenkins is
sought. Mr. Wilkes says that the
Lyric remains his primary focus
"My parents had a home in Con-
quistador for 25 years and I used to
come down here once or twice a
year," he says. "When I was at the

John Wilkes, who formerly ran the
Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall in
Sarasota and the Kravis Center in
West Palm Beach, was recently
named chief operating officer at the
Lyric Theatre by executive director
John Loesser.
Kravis, I lived in Tequesta. I knew
the Lyric when it was dormant for so
many years. When John came, I saw
a huge transition and the success
over the last eight years. John is
looking to build on the success with
a development program, perhaps
expanding beyond the bounds of
the Lyric, ensuring the long-term
financial health of the theater.

good advice. Your spirit is strong. Your heart is
open and your mind is clear. You have all the
tools you need to live and enjoy a high quality
life. It's all about the choices you make. Make
quick ones and suffer. Make wise ones and
feel the positive blessings.

Gemini-May 21-June 21
You are back on track and positive change is
happening all around you. Your tenacity and
staying power insures short- and long-term
success. Your energy is increasing as well.
Why? Because you have changed draining
stress into creative stress and your goals are
being met. Deadlines can be very fruitful when
you meet them.

Cancer-June 22-July 22
When you know what you truly want, the chal-
lenge is half met. Then it is time for action to
set it underway. Abundance is coming soon.
Keep on keeping on. Quitting is not in your
vocabulary. Go inside, find the magic in your


soul, bring it out and set it free. The odds for
success are in your favor.

Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
There are many new things happening in your
life right now. Why? Because of the changes
and upgrades, you have been working on, as
well as the action you are taking. Just be sure
to stick to the basics and practice them every-
day. Winners in life follow a similar plan. You
are a winner.

Virgo-Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Your continuing belief and faith in others is the
spark that keeps your heart open. Your great-
est joy comes when you make your friends
and family happy. You have courage like few
others. Your integrity and honesty are founda-
tion tools that guide your life as well. Your
inner radar guides you and protects you
through all of life's storms.

"The program is very
successful," he says.
"Annie' was sold out and
nearly 4,000 people saw
the show. I usually say you
get 10 people per cast
member; that's 800 peo-
ple. When you get 4,000,
it's the community turning
out. The program is self-
supporting and it's the
ticket sales that pay for it.
There's no cost to the kids
except a small fee for cos-
tume rental. I like to say


Wilkes
From page Bi


"This year the Beach
Boys concert demon-
strated that the commu-
nity would support the
Lyric and become more
involved as patrons,
donors or board mem-
bers. Development is an
important part of opera-

Mr. Wilkes hopes that
he will complement Mr.
Loesser.
"Operationally, I offer
another resource to
expand every aspect of
the business," he says.
"It's a small, dedicated

Mr. Madden hopes that
the community will come
out for "Oliver," which fea-
tures songs like "Food,
Glorious Food," "As Long
as He Needs Me," and
"Consider Yourself."
"We've never done it in
the summer before," he
says. "It's one of the best
high school musicals
around," he says. "It's dra-
matic, funny and has great
tunes."
It's going to be a great
show. Consider yourself
forewarned.

"Good Living" Serves a


Prominent, Role in Belisi's


Rise to Fashion Success


(Syndicated News) Every artist's inspira-
tion is unique. It could be waves crashing
against a shore, a chance encounter with a
stranger on the street in a foreign city. It
could be a series of events or a passing
mood. While the nature of inspiration is
individual, one thing holds true: all artists
are affected by their surroundings. For
Belisi Fashions (www.belisi.com) president
and founder Peter Belisi, inspiration came
from a job that was anything but expected.
"After earning a degree in economics,
landing a job at Merrill Lynch and finally
leaving the corporate world to start an
Internet advertising business of my own, I
fell on hard times," says Belisi. "I took a
bartending job in Palm Beach, Florida to
support my family. Fortunately, the people
I met there led me to bigger ideas and big-
ger dreams."
Serving Palm Beach's wealthiest and
most elite residents on a daily basis, he
developed the idea for a luxury accessories
brand based on the stylish fashions seen on
his high-profile clientele.
"I began emulating the clients I was serv-
ing from behind the bar," Belisi says. "I
took pride in never wearing the same tie
twice. When my co-workers and clients
noticed my taste in ties and started asking
me for fashion advice, I decided to parlay
my fashion sense into a business."


Now the owner of Belisi, a luxury lifestyle
brand specializing in Italian silk ties,
scarves and other accessories, this former
bartender has experienced success previ-
ously reserved for the customers he served.
"The Belisi brand unites the luxury and
prestige of Palm Beach with Italian beauty
and sophistication," says Belisi. "Our prod-
ucts are meant to give people a complete
look, those refined touches that take per-
sonal fashion to a higher level. Starting a
business in the fashion industry always is a
risky venture but fortunately it has paid off
for me."
Never one to forget his past, Belisi donates
t percentage of each sale to those in need.
"Giving back to the community is what
Belisi was created
for in the first
place," Belisi
states.
"I built my busi-
ness on the prin-l
ciples of good liv-
ing, and giving ,
back is a large
part of that. Greai ,
style, qualiur 4
accessories, and
community ,sup- '
port truly lefines 0
the good life."

FOR HOMETOWN NEWS

Sometimes the call
comes in the middle of
the night a frantic
spouse who has awak-
ened to find her mate has
taken the car keys and
left. "He's been getting
confused," she's likely to
say, "forgetting things,
and just acting so much
different from usual, but
I never expected he
would do this."
From the 911 emer-
gency operator and the
law enforcement official


In the Treasure Coast he
has found Mr. John Morello, an

his fairness in the car-sales

dents the most amazing selec-

who is on the road and
alerted to the problem, to
the convenience store
clerk where the man
stops to refuel the car but
doesn't have any money,
Alzheimer's disease and
dementia touch every
member of the commu-
nity.
Marla Buettner, whose
experience with the
memory-robbing disease
began with her own par-
ents, now works as an
Education Program Man-
ager for Alzheimer's
Community Care (ACC)
and educates law
enforcement officers,
emergency response pro-
fessionals and communi-
ty members about how to
spot Alzheimer's disease
and how to deal with a
patient in an unusual sit-


uation.
"When you stop some-
one over the age of 65 for
a traffic violation," she
said to a group of law
enforcement officers,
"please try to notice if
they respond to your
questions with vague
answers. If they have a
blank look, show no emo-
tion, or if they seem very
agitated or edgy, you may
well be dealing with
some form of dementia."
Gently, she guides the
officers through a sce-
nario where law enforce-
ment officers are called
to a neighborhood park
where a man is exposing
himself.
"If he is'suffering from
dementia or Alzheimer's
disease, it's possible he
may be very confused
and may simply "be look-
ing for a bathroom," said
Ms. Buettner, who notes
that inappropriate sexual
behavior is one of the
possible behaviors when
dealing with dementia-
related illnesses.
She says officers are
often called to deal with
the "top ten" situations
involving dementia and
Alzheimer's. Encounters
can include wandering,
auto accidents, traffic
violations, inappropriate
sexual behavior, for
example indecent expo-
sure, shoplifting, victim-
ization and exploitation,
false report filing, abuse
and domestic violence.
There have even been
cases of homicide and
suicide. Officers need to
understand that diseases
of dementia affect the
mind profoundly, and
may result in difficult
behaviors that affect the
entire community.
According to the latest
statistics, 4.8 to 5.2 mil-
lion people nationally
suffer from Alzheimer's
disease or dementia, with
more than 479,000
patients in Florida. The
Treasure Coast numbers
are staggering in St.


Lucie County, there are
an estimated 7,759
reported cases of
Alzheimer's disease.
In Martin County, the
number is slightly lower
at 6,240, and -in Palm
Beach County, it's more
than 48,000. Statistics
also report that
Alzheimer's is the fourth
leading cause of death in
adults. One in ten indi-
viduals over the age of 65
have the disease.
Although one in two indi-
viduals over the age of 85
has Alzheimer's, it can
affect individuals as
young as 50.
"It's like your brain's
hard drive is being erased
bit by bit, cell by cell,"
she said. In the later
stages, as memories are
erased bit, patients can
appear to be stuck living
between the ages of 14
and 26.
"So how will you recog-
nize the person who suf-
fers from Alzheimer's
Disease or a related ill-
ness?" Ms. Buettner asks
the officers.. "When you
look at someone who is
elderly, well-groomed
and confused about
where they are or where
they are going, more than
likely they are not strung
out on drugs, but are '
exhibiting symptoms of
dementia."
Since 60 percent of all
Alzheimer's patients will
'wander' sometime dur-
ing the course of their
disease, it's important for
law enforcement officials
and members of the
community to be educat-
ed and remain aware of
what's happening around
them.
Ms. Buettner quoted
startling statistics from a
study on wandering con-
ducted by Meredith
Rowe, RN, from the Uni-
versity of Florida. It says
that 37 percent of wan-
dering patients found
alive were within one
mile from where they
were last seen, and 49
percent were found alive
within one to five miles.
Those who are not as for-
tunate are primarily
found in unpopulated
places where they have
secluded themselves and
remained until they died.
Many find empty build-
ings or secluded places
even in populated areas
where they will remain
until they are found, or
until they die.
According to Ms. Rowe's
study, 90 percent of those
found dead were discov-
ered within one mile of
where they were last seen.
Ms. Buettner says families
dealing with Alzheimer's
or a related disorder are
sometimes too embar-
rassed to call law enforce-
ment when a loved one
wanders; they think they


can find the person on
their own, or believe that
the person will return, so
they put off reporting
their loved one missing. It
is important to get the
word out the longer a
search is delayed, the less
likely the person will be
found safe.
When a call is made,
officers contact the ACC
24-hour crisis line to gain
valuable information that
can help with the search
for a missing person, and
tips on how to safely and
successfully approach a
patient.
This call connects the
family with a family nurse
consultant who will con-
tact the family and offer
suggestions for putting a
plan into place that will
keep their loved one safe.
ACC is in the forefront
when it comes to disaster
preparedness for individ-
uals with Alzheimer's dis-
ease and related disor-
ders. The agency has
focused the attention of
local and state leaders on
the special needs of this
vulnerable population,
including 'dedicating an
entire issue of the ACC
quarterly publication to
hurricane preparedness
and dementia. "We
learned a lot from the
2004-2005 hurricanes,"
said Ms. Buettner, "and it's
important to consider
your options prior to the
storm hitting. The unique
needs of this population
demand a new and inno-
vative response in order to
keep them safe before,
during and in the after-
math of hurricanes and
other natural disasters."
Ms. Buettner says ACC
helps individuals and
caregivers learn how to
prepare for hurricane sea-
son, what to do' before,
during and after a storm,
how to register for a spe-
cial needs shelter, and
how to deal with and care
for a loved one with
dementia during a hurri-
cane.
In 2005, the first-ever
special needs shelter
opened in Palm Beach
County, staffed by ACC
staff and specially-trained
volunteers who provided a
safe place for individuals
with Alzheimer's and
related disorders and their
caregivers to 'hunker
down' and ride out the
storm."

What a year it
was for high
school sports
along the
Treasure Coast
BY MATT DEWHURST
Sports writer
With the 2006-2007 high
school season officially in
the books on the Treasure
Coast, it's time to look
back at the accomplish-
ments local athletes and
schools enjoyed this year.

Fall means football

On July 31, 2006 football
season kicked off with
two-a-day practices in the
sweltering summer heat.
Players took to their
respective practice fields
for the first time of the sea-
son, some ready to forget
2005; others looking to
continue past success.
Treasure Coast High
School became a reality, as
the first-year school and
head coach Pete DeLuke
prepared for the tough
road ahead. DeLuke and
the Titans went winless in
their inaugural season,
leading DeLuke to resign
this winter. Former assis-
tant Bill Kelley will lead
Treasure Coast this fall.
Football season always
generates excitement, and
the 2006 season was no
different. Fans watched as
Martin County, 2-8 a sea-
son ago, returned to glory
under first year coach
Chuck Kenyon. The Tigers
went 8-2 and finished with
a playoff berth.
South Fork's season also
featured a playoff bid, but
no postseason game could
generate the kind of buzz
the 2006 Martin Bowl did.


For the first time in
years, both Martin County
and South Fork entered
the final week of the sea-
son with just thee losses
combined. Both teams
had already wrapped up
district runner-up titles,
and now it was time to
prove who 'was the best
team in the county.
South Fork scored 10
points in the fourth quar-
ter, enroute to a 25-21 win
over the Tigers. It was the
Bulldogs' fourth straight
win over Martin County.
While County and the
Fork were making names
for themselves in Martin
County, St. Lucie made
some noise of its own. In
2005, Fort Pierce Central
went 8-2, but started its
2006 campaign 0-4. How-
ever, the Cobras took care
of business in their dis-
trict, winning five of their
last six games, finishing
just 5-5, but with their sec-
ond straight district title.
As football took over Fri-
day nights, volleyball
dominated the week. Both
John Carroll and Jensen
Beach stormed through
the regular season, and
claimed district titles, and
entered the regional play-
offs with high hopes of a
state title. Jensen Beach
(23-4) lost to eventual
state champ Cardinal Gib-
bons in the regional final,
and John Carroll (24-3)
lost to Berkley Prep in the
regional semifinal.
The area also saw Jensen
Beach senior Emily Hous-
ton finish her amazing
career with a 2A state title
in cross country, and Mar-
tin County sophomore
Alex Buelow won her sec-
ond straight individual 2A
golf title.
Not to be forgotten are
the area bowlers who
made the state finals.
South Fork beat Fort
Pierce Westwood for the
boys' district, while Cen-
tennial outlasted Lincoln
Park Academy for the girls'
title.

Jensen Beach High School's Cameo Kent attempts a layup
against Astronaut High School's LaQuita Curry (No. 40)
Thursday, Feb. 8. Jensen Beach Lady Falcons went on to
win the State 4A championship last March.


Both Lincoln Park and
Westwood also made the
state tournament as dis-
trict runner-up.

Falcons shoot,
and win

With the fall season in
the books, it was time for
winter and basketball took
center stage.
Port St. Lucie dominated
area competition in its
attempt to get back to the
state final four. Led by sen-
ior Larry Sanders, the Jags
came up short in the
regional playoffs, but not
before impressing every
crowd they played before
with big dunks and flashy
passes.
Jensen Beach was again a
focal point in basketball
season, as both girls' and
boys' teams won district
titles. The boys' team start-
ed the season 19-0, finish-
ing the regular season 20-1
after a dramatic win
against Martin County
before over 1,200 students,
fans, and spectators.
But what the boys did
well, the girls did better. In


March the Lady Falcons
beat Dunbar High School,
47-33, for the schools first
girls basketball state title.
"I'm happy,. I'm over-
whelmed, I'm in somewhat
disbelief. It's a dream come
true," said Jensen Beach
head coach Theresa luliuc-
ci at the time.
The title would be the
crowning jewel for the
2006-2007 sports season at
Jensen Beach, which in just
three years has established
itself as a Treasure Coast
powerhouse. The Falcons
won 10 district champi-
onships in 2006-2007.
In the pool, James Turner
of Lincoln Park Academy
won the 100-meter
freestyle at the 2A state
meet for his first state title.
Turner, who will be a senior
in 2007, will get a shot at
defending his title this win-
ter.

Baseball is best
The spring brought us
baseball, softball, tennis
and track. And what a sea-
son it was for Treasure

THAT MUSTY AC
ODOR
As summer approaches, most
motorists turn on their vehicles'
air conditioning (AC) units for
the first time in several months.
Many are then greeted with a
musty odor coming from the
vents. Sometimes the culprit 'is
moisture left in the drain pan
after the AC is shut off. This
problem can be prevented by.cir-
culating fresh air through the
vents with the AC turned off and
the fan on for a few minutes
before the car is parked. There
are also odor treatments avail-
able that can be sprayed into the
outside air intake vent.
Otherwise, the problem may be
traced to a blocked hose that
ordinarily drains off condensa-
tion. A technician can diagnose
the problem and clear the drain
tube.
AtADVANTAGE FORD OF STUART,
our automotive technicians can
perform professional mainte-
nance on your air, Conditioning
system. If yourAC is giving off
an unwanted Odor,'or is not per-
forming its function properly, we
can help. Located at 4000 S.E.
Federal Highway, we pride our-
selves on the quality of our work.
Nothing makes us happier than a
satisfied customer. Questions?
Call 772.781.6540.
HINT: Run your vehicle's AC unit
for a few minutes during the
colder months to circulate refrig-
erants and lubricate oil inside tme
compressor. This will help keep
internal seals and hoses suffi-
ciently pliable that they will not
leak.

Florida Open comes


to Treasure Coast


BY MATT DEWHURST
Sports writer
It's not the state cham-
pionship, but if you live in
Florida, it's about as close
as you're going to get.
Loblolly Club in Hobe
Sound is hosting the
Florida Open Golf Cham-
pionship May 30-June 2.
It will be the 65th year
that the championship
has been held and the
second time in two years
that Loblolly will host the
event. They last hosted in
2005.
With many golfers
preparing for the U.S.
Open on June 14, and the


beginning of the Gateway
Tour this summer, tour-
nament director Rick
Whitfield expects the
field to be smaller than
usual.
Last year the Open was
held in Orlando with 144
participants. He plans on
going back to a true open
format in 2007, in which
participants would have
to qualify for the event.
Loblolly, which was
voted as one of the 50
hardest courses in Amer-
ica, should prove a chal-
lenge to competitors, but
one that they will enjoy.
"Golfers would rather
play a course that will


challenge them," said
Whitfield. "And they
know Loblolly will do
that."
The Florida Open will
be a 72-hole tournament
with a cut after 36. The
low 35 percent of the
starting field and ties will
advance.
If the field reaches its
maximum of 144 players,
the purse is estimated
at $70,000, with a first
place prize of $15,000.
Admission to watch the
tournament is free and all
fans are welcome.

Coast athletes.
A traditional hot spot
for baseball, the area did-
n't disappoint. John Car-
roll reached No. 2 in the
state polls, South Fork
had one of the strongest
finishes, beating Vero
Beach and John Carroll in
back-to-back games to
win the Treasure Lakes
Conference title, and area
pitchers lived up their
hype.
John Carroll, Port St.
Lucie and Jensen Beach
all advanced to the
regional playoffs.
It was the first time in
school history that Jensen
Beach advanced to
regional round of the
playoffs.
Port St. Lucie was the
shining star of the spring
season coming from
behind six times in post-
season play to advance to
their first state final four.
"It's almost like it's taken
on a life of its own. I don't
think it's luck, I mean,
luck does play a part in
it.... but when you consis-
tently (come from
behind) is it luck?" said
Port St. Lucie head coach
Tony Malizia after wit-
nessing his team com-
plete a seven-run rally in
the bottom half of the
sixth inning against New-
some to advance to the
school's first state final.
"Maybe I should go buy
lottery tickets."
The Jaguars finished as
state runners-up after los-
ing in the 5A state cham-
pionship, 12-1, to Venice
High School. They
received a hero's welcome
back to the Treasure Coast
the following day.
While area baseball
teams were making head-
lines around the state,
there were also plenty of
athletes succeeding in
individual sports.
A number of area track


stars advanced to their
respective state meets,
with Jensen Beach junior
Kayla Conrad leading the
pack. Conrad successfully
defended her 3A state title
in the 800-meter race.
High school tennis also
stood strong this spring
with Jensen Beach dou-
bles team Abby Dwyer
and Hannah Wickstrom
advancing to the Florida
state 2A final, and finish-


ing as the state runners-
up.
The Lincoln Park Acade-
my boys' tennis team
placed seventh in the 2A
state tournament. And
Martin County girls' team
placed sixth in the 3A
state final.
Martin County boys'
tennis was also very
impressive, finishing the
regular season undefeat-
ed.

Hurricanes result in better facilities at Saints at Port St. Lucie


Every cloud has a silver
lining. Or so the saying
goes.
A couple years ago, after a
trio of hurricanes had
slashed their way through
our neighborhood, we had
little that shined like silver,
much less resemble it.
At the Saints at Port St.
Lucie, however, the damage
from those hurricanes
served as a catalyst. Plans to
renovate the existing 45-
year-old buildings that
comprised the club's pro
shop, cart barn and rest-
rooms, were moved to the

front burner.
When the city of Port St.
Lucie purchased the course
in 2001, city leaders knew
the club would need some
work.
They started with new
greens and tees, providing
golfers with a first-class
track on which to play.
The smartly applied plan
gave golfers a better course
before turning attention to
the amenities needed to
complete the project.
On April 12, the most
noticeable amenity of the
project was officially
completed as the ribbon
was cut on a fantastic new
clubhouse. Gone were the
days of cramped offices and
a pro shop that made a
single-car garage look
cavernous.
"We knew the course was
old and needed to be
updated," said head
professional Phil Henry.


JAMES STAMMER
Golf columnist

"The pro shop used to be in
a hallway and my office was
in a closet."
Henry smiled as he gazed
around his spacious new
office and pro shop filled
with the latest golf fashions
and accessories.
The smell of grilled
burgers and more filled the
room as we chatted about
the place.


The new digs for Henry,
his staff and golfers alike are
a far cry from those early .
days of the city's ownership
just a few years ago.
Gone are the drab,
uninviting concrete
bunkers that comprised the
original design.
The new clubhouse is
open, airy, flowing and
relaxing. The clubhouse was
designed to take full
advantage of the trade
winds, allowing everyone to
relax outside on a large
screened porch, even
during the warmest times.
Around the outside, brick
pavers were used on the
driveways and cart paths
surrounding the new
clubhouse. The effect
dresses up the entire
facility.
A covered drive greets
golfers who arrive to drop
off their bag and begin the
day. Even during a sudden


storm, clubs will stay dry
while you wait to play or go
to get the car after play.
Inside, in addition to a
large pro shop and an office
with windows, Mr. Henry
can enjoy a full-service bar
and grill.
Josef's at the Saints is
open well into the evening
running specials into the
evening, offering a full
menu including steak,
seafood and other favorites.
The large patio and
restaurant allow the Saints
to host golf outings of ,
nearly any size. Even non-
golfers can find a relaxing
spot to wait for their golfer
to finish playing. It's
become a favorite spot for
moms and dads to put
their feet up, while their
junior golfers complete
play.
While the new clubhouse
is the gem of the facility, it
by no means marks the end


of the work being done.
The refreshed look and
feel is taking shape
throughout the golf course.
A tremendous amount of
new landscaping has been
added, with crushed
orange-colored coquina
rock being placed around
trees and flowerbeds. The
distinct contrast in colors
from the green of the grass,
to the orange rock, to the
colorful flowers adds a nice
touch to the course.
The Saints is on S.E.
Momrningside Boulevard in
Port St. Lucie. To schedule a
round, or even your next
meal, call the pro shop at
(772) 398-2901.

Scopes
From page B1


Libra-Sept. 23-0ct. 22
You are universally protect-
ed. At the last minute,
when it seems like it may
not work, a ray of light
comes through from your
spirit to light the way and
lead you on to victory. Visu-
alize the outcome you
desire and success will
continue to come in every


area of life. It is your faith,
trust and surrender that
make it happen.

Scorpio-Oct. 23-Nov. 21
It's good to see your spirit
growing. Be sure to write
down your dreams. Each
one is like a piece of the
big puzzle of life. Soon a
deeper meaning of life will
emerge that focuses you
on the main purpose of
your life waiting since birth
to be set free. With your
large heart, you are des-
tined to be of service to
and help others grow.

Sagittarius-Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Your life is a journey, not a
destination. Keep honing
your skills. You are a tire-


less seeker of truth and a
strong inspiration to others
seeking their truth. Yours is
a high quality life. All you
give to family, others and
the world is ready to come
back multiplied. Your great-
est strength is your warm,
caring heart.

Capricorn-Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Because of your strong
conscience you never have
to look back. The key to
your success is to make the
best use of what you have
on hand. Your resourceful-
ness is legion. Life isn't
always perfect, but you
never let the challenges
stop you. These fine quali-
ties start us all off on a pos-
itive new year. Thanks for


being there.

Aquarius-Jan. 20-Feb. 18
Because you make wise
choices, your life produces
positive results. Then you
look for ways to enrich the
lives of others around you.
Because of these spiritual
blessings you are held in
honor. You look at life as a
mission and an adventure
instead of a job. Did you
ever think about writing a
book? It could be a best-
seller.

Pisces-Feb. 19-March 20
Aren't you glad you held
firm to your own beliefs
when others were trying to
sway you with theirs? Your
depth of heart is stronger


than any other in your zodi-
ac family. Everyone may
not understand your meth-
ods, but they are awed by
your results. Success in life
is guaranteed because of
this wonderful inner
strength.
