Citizens go on patrol

Program provides extra sets of
eyes and ears for Stuart police


BY DONALD RODRIGUE
Staffwriter
STUART For almost
20 years now, the Stuart
police force has been aug-
mented by a group bf vol-
unteers who help the local
law enforcement keep an
eye on the community.
The Stuart Citizens on
Patrol program was found-
ed by Sergeant Marty
Jacobson, the head of the
Community Services divi-
sion. Sgt. Jacobson said he
put his "neck on the line"
when he first mentioned
the idea to the police chief,
who thought the idea was
too risky.
The Citizens on Patrol

Voter approval

' Sl f r,':, r
Martin County, along
with every other county
in the state, must now
live within its means
when paying for large-
scale infrastructure proj-
ects.
A recent decision'
handed down by the
Florida Supreme Court
now forces both munici-
palities and school
boards to receive voter
approval for any project
financing longer than 12
months.
Since at least the
1980s, Florida counties
have been issuing bonds
for capital projects with-
out holding referendums
on the issue. Previous
Supreme Court rulings
had enabled them to do
so, as long as they agreed

proved to be a success and
a genuine addition to the
Stuart Police Department.
Since launching the pro-
gram, Sgt. Jacobson said
volunteers have helped in
almost all facets of police
and crime investigation
work, from answering
non-emergency phone
calls to building model
crime scene replicas used
in the courtroom.
"A law-enforcement
background is not neces-
sary," he explained, "We
try to find a volunteer
experience that will match
the volunteer."

i ..lm "' Roller Derby lives in 2007


Stay at home moms and business women lace up the
skates for battles on the roller rink


Cliff Partlow/staff photographer
Sara Mark of Jensen Beach took a few warm up laps at
the Skate Factory in Vero Beach recently. She and a
dozen or so other girls are members of the Treasure
Coast Roller Girls and are training to compete with
other roller derby teams in the area.


By WARREN KAGARISE
Sl'affjwriter :
VERO BEACH There are
few rules in roller derby.
hitting opponent- is
allowed. Shoving or tripping
them is not.
But rules, like bones, are
meant to be broken.
Ask Amy Lee English, the
21-year-old founder of the
Treasure Coast Rollergirls.
During a practice skate with
an Orlando team earlier this
\ear, she landed on her left
arm, snapped her radius, got
up and finished the practice.
T he cast is off these days;
Ms. English is once again on
the rink.
Holler derby, a rough-and-
tumble revival of the phe-
nonmenon that hit its heyday
in the'70s, is back.
This time around, the sub-
culiure sport has traded its
cartoonish charm of old for a
defiant edge.
"It's not dainty, it's not
cute, it's not high mainte-
nance," said roller girl Eryn
Stuart, 25, a Stuart veterinary
emergency room nurse,
whose derby uniform


included garters and '50s-
style cat-eye glasses.
."When Ms. English began
organizing the Treasure
Coast Rollergirls last month,
requirements were minimal.
"Be prepared to sweat,
ache and sober up at least a
few hours a week for prac-
tice," Ms. English wrote on
MySpace and the Treasure
Coast Rollergirls Web site.
And, most importantly, be
ready to rumble.
"The likelihood of getting
hurt is slim to none," Ms.
English said last week,
shielded beneath a beetle-
black helmet, elbow guards
and kneepads.
Behind her, the team was
in the middle of its second
practice.
The Sept. 12 huddle drew
20 women mothers, a
hairdresser, an interior
designer, a mechanic.
"Whoop some a--- that's
the goal," said Marina
Lewandowski, 26, a Port St.
Lucie stay-at-home mother
of three small children.
Women dressed up in
Day-Glo leggings and fishnet
stockings whirled in tight


ovals, their skates clacking
against the polished floor.
Fluorescent light glinted on
their stainless-steel facial
piercings.
Skate Factory, the Vero
Beach rink that is home base
to the Treasure Coast Roller-
girls, closed to the skating
public hours ago.
Newly anointed roller girls
with candy colored hair
raced at breakneck speed on
the flat track, some careen-
ing out of control on the
sharp curves.
"Out there, you don't have
a pain-in-the-a- boyfriend,
you don't have five kids," said
Mandy Douglas, a Fort
Pierce twentysomething
with an office job who skates
as Manda Tori Mayhem.
Skate names, the menac-
ing alter egos that are central
to roller derby, are forthcom-
ing for the Treasure Coast
Rollergirls, Ms. English said.
The team wants to begin
competing next year, facing
other Florida roller derby
teams in bouts, or matches.
Eventually, the team wants

Politicians and
law enforcement
officials gather
on Jupiter Island
to discuss issue
BY DONALD RODRIGUE
Staffwriter
MARTIN -COUNTY -
Florida District 82 Repre-
sentative William Snyder
has proposed new legisla-
tion to help Martin County
Sheriff's deputies and law
enforcement officers
throughout the state fight
illegal alien smuggling.
House Bill 107 is
designed to criminalize
human smuggling in Flori-
da and give any local law-
enforcement officers the
power to arrest and detain
smugglers. The bill is co-
sponsored by District 86
Rep. Maria Sachs and Dis-
trict 81 Rep. Gayle Harrell.
The legislator said he
authored the bill at the
request of the Martin
County Sheriff's Depart-
ment. Sheriff Robert
Crowley said that the
county has seen 13 cases
of illegal alien smuggling
during the last 18 months,
which resulted in three
known deaths. The most
recent incident occurred
on Sept. 14, when more
than a dozen illegal aliens
were caught drifting just
off the coast near Hobe
Sound public beach.
At present, local author-
ities must ask a federal
agency to intervene in
human smuggling cases,
since there is no current
Florida statute on the
books. Sometimes these
agencies have a backlog,
Rep. Snyder said, and can-
not respond within the
brief time that officers can
hold a suspect without fil-


ing formal charges.
"Because of the delay in
the response time, you can
even lose
witnesses,"
he said.
"Local law
enforce-

should be
able to
make an
arrest and
even confis- Bill Snyder
cate the
boat."
Rep. Snyder said he's
seen the horrific sight of
illegal aliens left to drown
and wash up on area
beaches and is confident
the bill will save lives if it
makes it into law.
"These smugglers are so
underhanded," he said.
"They'll actually throw the
victims off the boat."
The smuggler in the
most recent case, 45-year-
old Bahamian David
Knowles, abandoned the
migrants on the ship,
donned a mask and fins,
and swam to shore. He
then swam across the
Indian River and was cap-
tured by authorities as he
walked along state route
A1A.
On that occasion, feder-
al authorities were able to
come quickly enough to
press charges, and Mr.
Knowles is currently
awaiting trial.
On Sept. 19, Reps. Sny-
der, Harrell and Sachs held
a press conference with
Martin County law
enforcement officers on
Jupiter Island overlooking
the site where the most
recent illegal migrants
were brought ashore.
Rep. Snyder emphasized
that he wanted to stop ille-
gal aliens from "getting off
the boats and walking into

County to receive FEMA reimbursement

Martin County received word on Sept. 19 that the Fed-
eral Emergency Management Agency had approved the
county's request for a $3.4 million reimbursement of
2004 hurricane cleanup costs.
The funds are being reimbursed for money spent on
the cleanup of gated communities after both Hurricanes
Frances and Jeanne left Martin County and much of the
Treasure Coast devastated. The county had sought reim-
bursement for'three years and filed two appeals during
the process.
FEMA had first denied the request, claiming that Mar-
tin County had not proven it was legally bound to collect
the debris from gated communities.
County Engineer Don Donaldson and other county
officials attribute their success in convincing FEMA to
the help of U.S. Rep Tim Mahoney, D-Palm Beach Gar-
dens. The agency finally recognized that the county was
obligated to collect the debris due to a county-wide
assessment for solid waste collection.
Martin County collected more than 174,000 cubic
yards of debris from the gated communities after the two
storms. Debris removal countywide cost more than $19
million.
The reimbursement is a shot in the arm for the coun-
ty's finances, which have shrinking since the June sales-
tax collections came back from the state in August.
According to County Administrator Duncan Ballantyne,
the tax reimbursement had dropped by $1 million com-
pared to the same period in 2006. The Martin County
Commission will decide where to direct the funds once
they're received.

Jensen Beach group sues Martin County
and Pitchford Landing developer

Several downtown Jensen Beach businesses and the
nonprofit Jensen Beach Group have joined forces to try
and stall the proposed Pitchford Landing development.
The group filed a civil suit on Sept. 19 against the
developer, Bill Reilly, and Martin County. The suit states
that the county is violating its own rules by allowing the
development to build single-family homes on land that's
zoned for mobile homes or recreational vehicles.
Mr. Reilly said the legal action was in retaliation for a
defamation suit that he has against local businesses and
members of the Jensen Beach Group.
According to the Jensen Beach lawsuit, residents are
concerned about the loss of the area's affordable hous-
ing, as well as the proposed development's effects on
traffic congestion, drainage and storm water runoff.

Ocean Boulevard supermarket

A Miami Springs grocery store chain has tentatively
agreed to purchase the Ocean Boulevard location of Stu-

Milam's Markets, which owns several upscale super-

The chain caters to a more affluent clientele and offers

normally found in smaller supermarkets.

Roller
From page Al


Women's Flat Track Derby
Association, the top tier of
roller derby teams nation-
wide.
Until then, there is work to
do.
"Keep those knees bent as
you go around the corners,"
Kevin Carroll coached the
women, as they lined up to
race.
Some roller girls toppled
anyway, their skates clatter-
ing on the way down.
"Bruises are sexy," Ms. Stu-
art said.
Spills are routine.
"Training is pretty tough,"
said Kristin Phillips, a Vero
Beach business owner with
hair the color of grape Kool-
Aid. "I'm 30 and this is the


first time I've taken up team
sports."
Since its inception, the
team has drawn members
from just about every skill
level, from. novices strap-
ping on their first skates
since childhood, to former
speed skaters.
"I love to roller skate and
I'm going to learn to roller
derby," said Billie Rose, 30, a
Sebastian wine and spirits
sales representative.
At the Skate Factory, the
roller girls ranged from-
barely legal to early 30s.
"It really is for all ages, all
body types, whatever," Ms.
English said.
Roller girls range from
Olive Oyl thin to Tracy Turn-


blad thick.
Some, like Ms.
Lewandowski, who gave
birth to a daughter two
months ago, joined the
skating sisterhood for exer-
cise.
"It's my, way to work off
the weight without actually
feeling like I'm working,"
Ms. Lewandowski said.
Heather Horowitz, 34,
works as a Vero Beach inte-
rior designer by day, cover-
ing up her elaborate tattoos
with .long sleeves and
slacks.
On the rink, she's Lola Pis-
tola, a tough broad with her
dark hair pushed back in a
hot pink, leopard-print
bandana, and her inked
arms bared in a tank top.
"Pistola" is stitched across
the back of her shorts.
While the team trains, "I
get to hang out with some
other cool tattooed chicks,"
Ms. Horowitz said.
In a bout, five skaters
from each team take to the
rink. In the front, there is a
pivot, a pace-setting skater
from each team. Behind the
pack, 20 feet away, is a jam-
mer for each team.
Jammers pass the pack to
score points.
That is, of course, if she
can make her way through
the brawny wall of blockers.
Three blockers from each
team try to prevent the
opposing team's jammer
from breaking through the
line.
This is where the hitting
comes in.
Referees assess penalties
for grabbing, holding.
throwing elbows and trip-
ping opponents.
Teams skate in 20-minute
periods, with the jam -
when tlie jammer tries to
break ahead lasting up to
txwo minutes.


"You'll learn," said Tim
Hunter, co-owner of the
Skate Factory and roller
derby coach. "It just takes
practice."
It also takes a certain
amount of grit.
Sara Mark, who decided
her jersey number will be
"quarter-mile," last
strapped on roller skates
when she was 11, then grad-
uated to skateboarding.
Now 25, the Jensen Beach
mechanic is donning skates
again along with a tartan
skirt, highlighter-green,
leopard-print leggings and
a maroon velvet, leopard-
print helmet.
"We found'the best bunch
of girls," Ms.. Mark said.
"Crazy people, but the good
kind of crazy."
For Kimberly Smith, 35, a
Vero Beach hairdresser,
with jet-black hair offset
with thatches of hot pink,
roller derby is a way to
unwind.
"It sounded like a whole
lot of fun, an alter ego-type
deal," Ms. Smith said.
And, the mother of three
said, "it gets me away from
feeling like Mrs. Cleaver."
Well, sort of: "Not that I
look like Mrs. Cleaver."

Bra art coming to


Stuart art gallery


FOR HOMETOWN NEWS

When members of
Waterways Gallery decid-
ed to be "Creative for a
Cause," their first idea was
to create "Bra Art" in any
medium and donate the
works to Pink Tie Friends
for their fundraising
efforts.
Beginning Sept. 26, the
bra art will be on display at
Waterways Gallery
On Oct. 4, from 5 to 8
p.m. the gallery will hold a
reception for the exhibit
and also for guest artist
Billye Miraglia, a breast
cancer survivor. There will
be free wine and food
(courtesy of Brickwall
Grille), door prizes, and
music by "The Rowdy
Micks."
"It makes people smile


and that's the magic of the
whole thing," said Ms.
Miraglia, who has already
submitted three bra art
pieces and was Ms. June in
this year's Pink Tie calen-
dar.
"When you go through
breast cancer recovery,
you can't take yourself too
seriously. You need to look
back and remember what
was good, like learning
that you're not alone," said
Ms. Miraglia.
Anyone interested in.
submitting their own art-
work for these events may
do so by paying a $10 fee.
Waterways Gallery,
located at 2881 S.E. Ocean
Blvd. in the Stracuzzi
Plaza, is open from noon to
9:30 p.m. Tuesday through
Saturday. Call (772) 781-

Adult education

This is to the bums and creeps that run the adult educa-
tion at the high school in Martin County.
I drove all the way over to Martin County High School
from Hobe Sound on a Friday, only to find that they were
closed.
You would think that they would be closed only on Satur-
day and Sunday, but no, this isn't the case.
I spoke to the security guard who was at the entrance of
the high school, and was able to at least get their phone
number.
Also, the prices for the night classes are very high. They
seem to go up every year.
Let me tell the people that run the adult education office
that they are not doing the townspeople any favors by giv-
ing high price classes.
I could understand if these classes were $#20, $25, or $30,
but you people are really raking in the gold.
Everybody in Martin County that comes to your classes
pays $50, $60, or $70.
Look at the prices they are trying to gouge out of people
for, the motorcycle course to get a motorcycle license. I
think it is about $250.
This is some real price gouging in Martin County.
I understand that other schools have adult classes, too.
I don't know what their prices are, but unfortunately it
would be too far to drive if you live in the Martin County
area.
The people that are raking in the money must be laughing
their heads off at all of the cash they are squeezing from the
young, the adults, and the senior citizens for these over-
priced classes.
It's a shame.
You could get more people in if you would be reasonable,
and charged $25, $30, or even $35 for a course.

Whose hometown is it?

In the Friday, Sept. 14 edition of the Hometown News
sports page was a picture of a Martin County player leaving
a "wide open" Nease player for a touchdown in a 35 0
Nease Victory.
Was this necessary? It's like pouring salt into the wound.
Was this a Big Play in a 35-0 lopsided Nease victory?
Again, whose hometown is this paper pulling for?
For a hometown "feel good" paper it sure didn't feel good.
The next time a local team loses like that ask your photog-
rapher to take a picture of the cheerleaders.

Shame on you

This is in response to the rant about someone throwing
kittens out of the car window.
In my opinion, the person who observed this and didn't
rescue the kittens, or call the appropriate agency to do so, is
just as despicable.
Shame on him or her.

You are just as much at fault

I want to say that I was outraged when I read the rant
about the person spotted throwing kittens out of the car.
Shame on that person, but shame on the ranter, too.
Shame on the one who saw the kittens being thrown out,
then listened to them cry out in the sun for two days, and
didn't at least take them to a shelter.
You are just as guilty as the person doing the throwing.
Shame on you.

-Comments on the paper

I love your Rants and Raves section.
It gives people the chance to say what they feel without
having to put their name as another local newspaper has
them do.
When people have to put their names down, it opens
them up for nasty phone calls.
Neither their addresses nor phone numbers are pub-
lished, but people are in the phone directory, aren't they?
Then rebuttals are added later in reference to Joe So-and-
so's letter to the editor, bringing up their name again.
Thank you, Hometown News, for adopting your wonder-
ful policy of no names.
I don't care for your recipe lady's recipes.
Try to put different ones in from another chef who knows
what they're doing.

Good columns

I would like to say that I particularly enjoyed the story by
Tamara Dourney about the young weaver who is connected
with the Oriental rugs.
It was exceptionally well written, and very interesting.
I also want to comment that I enjoy Sean McCarthy's
computer column. He is a tremendous help to people like


myself who always need to learn something.

Choose life, whose life?

How come everyone feels that they need to put "Choose
life" on their license plates? How come we don't have a "Pro
Choice"?
Why is it your business what a woman decides to do with
her body?
Why is it okay for a woman to have an abortion if she's
raped or molested? If it is considered a special circum-
stance, aren't the choose life people contradicting them-
selves?
They can quote the Bible all they want, but I don't remem-
ber reading any small print about special circumstances.
Until a person is put in the situation, they cannot judge.
They would be the first to say that their 13-year-old
daughter should have an abortion, so that she doesn't ruin
her life.
It's people like the choose lifers that should be blamed for
the 16-year-old girl who hides her pregnancy from her par-
ents, has the baby in a gas station bathroom, and puts him
in a dumpster left to die because she's too ashamed to talk to
her parents.
It's been instilled in the brains of these young girls that
abortion is wrong.
Put yourself in that situation before you judge.

Wake up America

I'm sorry, but after hearing they want to sing.our National
Anthem in Spanish, I feel enough is too much.
Never did they sing it in Italian, Japanese, Polish, Irish-
Celtic, German, Portuguese, Greek, French, or any other lan-
guage because of immigration.
It was written by Francis Scott Key, and should be sung
word for word the way it was written.
The news broadcasts gave a translation that's not even
close.
I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but this is my country.
Let me make this perfectly clear.
This is my country, and because I make this statement does
not mean I'm against immigration,
You are welcome here in my country, welcome to come
through like everyone else has.
Get a sponsor.
Get a place to lay your head.
Get a job.
Live by our rules.
Pay your taxes.
Learn the language like all other immigrants have in the
past.
Please don't demand that we hand over our lifetime savings
of Social Security funds to you to make up for "your" losses.
When will Americans stop giving away their rights?
We've gone so far the other way. We have bent over back-
wards not to offend anyone.
But, it seems no one cares about the American that's being
offended.
Wake up America.

Immigration
Having moved from the United Kingdom, I have been liv-
ing here in the United States for only four months and I there-
fore hesitate to criticize, but recent events force my hand.
I, along with my business partner began the long and
expensive process of applying for a temporary visa to live and
work here in Florida.
Having paid an immigration attorney $10,000 each last
November, we set out to gain our visas the legal route.
I received mine in April, and moved here in May.
The additional cost of moving family and furniture here
accounted for several more tens of thousands of dollars.
My business partner finally received his interview date, and
recently flew back to the UK to attend his visa interview.
He has just had his visa application refused, as it was


assessed that our business was not profitable enough.
Because of this I may be forced to return home, with
all that that entails.
Anyone who has started a business knows it takes time to
turn a decent profit.
We are both self-sufficient outside the business, and don't
need the income to live.
However, we are happy to pay our taxes for all income and
comply with all laws in the U.S.
It seems your government is considering offering amnesty
to illegals who either don't pay taxes, or are likely to be a drain
on your services.
However, people from a friendly nation like the UK are
treated with contempt
What is the motivation to come to the U.S. legally?

Writer weary of handicap ratings

I do enjoy reading the Hometown News, all of it.
I am, however, getting tired reading the rants about
"abuse" of the handicap parking hang tags.
First, the tags carry the driver's license number of the hand-
icapped person with a verifiable handicap, properly docu-
mented by a licensed physician, to the standards established
by the state of Florida. The tags are not issued by a doctor, as
the most recent complainer states.
Second, a cardiac condition is not visible, unless our com-
plainer is an MD with ESE A person with a heart problem
may have been cleared to drive a car, but is.limited in ambu-
lation over longer distances.
If the ranter is working in a restaurant or cafeteria, certainly
he or she is well able to get around. Is the diatribe because the
complainer wanted to use (abuse) the parking space but
never got there first?
I really do feel that the complainer has spent too much time
eyeing, studying, snooping, judging, etc., when there are far
better things to do with one's time.
In conclusion, if the parking spots are not being used by
handicapped persons, or their driver, the complainer should
first discuss it with a police officer.
It is my belief that, in some cities, police officers do not
issue tickets in other than city-owned parking lots.
Your complainer should follow one of the golden rules:
MYOB!

.Reasons to support Iraq war
just don't make sense

This is in response to rant "U.S. must show resolve in Iraq
or war won't end."
According to this rant, the Iraqis won't stand up because
the U.S. forces might leave. (Using) that logic, the only way
they will stand up is if we stay forever and the Iraqis know we
will stay forever.
So to end the war we must show resolve. To show resolve,
we can never leave.
But if we never leave, the war will never end.
This is typical of the reasoning of those supporting the war.
Let's agree that at this point nobody knows what to do
next. Bush, Cheney, etc., got us into this mess by doing the
wrong thing at the wrong time in the wrong place. Now they
want to prolong it and dump it on the next administration,
so then they can go on the lecture circuit and pull in the big
bucks.
Whatever the solution is, it's not staying forever.
By the way, it was the elder Bush who encouraged the
Kurds and Shiites to rise up against Saddam, and who let
them be slaughtered by the Republican Guard.

Stop letting kids get free Internet accounts

There needs to be some kind of way to make sure that
underage children can't open a (free) Internet account with-
out their parents permission.

Local family learns about man's WWII Nazi camp experience


Flag signed by
liberators in
1945 provides
details of vet's
war heroics

BY RITA HART
Staff writer
A teenager's efforts to
save a family heirloom from
the trash has revived fond
memories for an area fami-
ly.
Mallory Roesch, who was
then a Wichita, Kan., high
school student, found a flag
that had hung in an Nazi
prison camp. The flag was
signed by prisoners and
their liberators, one of
whom has strong ties tp the
Treasure Coast.
It was liberation day,
April 6, 1945, when the Nazi
camp prisoners tore a large
flag from the wall.
Sixty years later, Ms.
Roesch, the granddaughter
of an American servicemen
who brought the flag back
to the United States, found
the 7- by 10-feet red and
black flag with the Nazi
symbol in the middle, and
that piece of history is now.
hanging in the Wichita


Museum of Modern Trea-
sures.
The resurfacing of the
flag has brought back many
memories to those who
were there that day and are
still living. The history of
the flag is also being intro-
duced to the families of the
men who have since died,
and new generations are
learning of their fathers and
grandfathers' World War II
experiences for the' first
time.
Dennis C. Scruggs, Jr. was
born in 1918 in Brevard,
N.C. He joined the Army in
1942 and was assigned to
the 103rd Division, 411th
Infantry. He was a staff ser-
geant at the time of his mili-
tary discharge and had
been awarded a Bronze
Star.
Mr. Scruggs married
Louise Carpenter, who is
now 89 years old and a resi-
dent of Port St. Lucie.
The couple had two chil-
dren; Dennis C. Scruggs III,
a retired Colonel in the U.S.
Air Force. Col. Scruggs lives
in Palm City with his wife
and daughter.
The couple's daughter,
Chery, lives in Arizona.
Mr. Scruggs died in 1987
at the age of 69. During his
lifetime, he rarely spoke


about' his wartime experi-
ences.
"My Dad mentioned once
that he shot the lock off a
gate (in a Nazi camp)'and
the prisoners were too weak
to walk out," said Col.
Scruggs.
"But he never spoke
about that flag."
Mrs. Scruggs also said her
husband rarely spoke of his
time as a serviceman.
"I didn't know anything
about the flag until my son
told me. It's been a sur-
prise," she said..
In early September, Col.
Scruggs was contacted by a
reporter in Kansas who had
heard the story of the flag
from Dr. William D. Paschal.
Dr. Paschal had entered the
service in 1943 when he was
just 17. He was a first scout
in the 100th infantry divi-
sion and eventually became
a prisoner in Stalag IXB.
From Dr. Paschal, Col.
Scruggs and his mother
learned the history of the
flag.
Col. Scruggs was stunned
when he saw a photograph
of the flag and recognized
his father's signature and
address.
"That's my Dad's signa-
ture and when I saw it, it
brought tears to my eyes,"


said Col. Scruggs.
According to Dr. Paschal,
when the Nazi prisoners
were freed that day in April
of 1945, they rushed into
the commandant's office
"and tore the huge Nazi
State Service Banner from
the wall."
Dr. Paschal told Col.
Scruggs that 61 prisoners
and members of the liberat-
ing force, including Mr.
Scruggs, signed the flag.
One of the American lib-
erators, Capt. Rob A. Tra-
vers, wrote on the flag,
"This is the only piece of
Naziland that will ever
enter the U.S.A."
The flag was brought
back by Don Hagen of the
36th Division when he
returned to his home in
Kansas. Eventually, Mr.
Hagan passed the flag'on to
his stepson, whose daugh-
ter is Mallory Roesch.
When Ms. Roesch's par-
ents were going through a
difficult divorce, her moth-
er threw away many of her
father's belongings, includ-
ing the box that contained
the flag.
Ms. Roesch, a teen at the
time, knew there was some-
thing worth saving in that
box, and retrieved it from
the trash.


"I didn't know anything about the flag until my
son told me. It's been a complete surprise "



Louise Scruggs
Wife of WWII veteran Dennis C. Scruggs, Jr.


Last spring, Ms. Roesch
took the flag to her school.
Her principal, realizing it
was of historical signifi-
cance, arranged for the flag
to be displayed at a shop-
ping mall, because he knew
several veterans walked
there daily and might
appreciate seeing it.
They did. Word of the
flag's existence eventually
reached the Air Capital
Chapter of the American
Ex-prisoners of War in
Wichita, and Ms. Roesch
and her principal were
invited to attend a meeting
and bring the flag with
them.
The group was so
impressed with Ms.
Roesch's efforts to save the
flag that they offered her
$1,000 for it, so that it could
be displayed in the Wichita
Museum of Modern Trea-
sures. In addition, they
began a college scholarship
fund for Ms. Roesch, who
graduated from high school


in June.
Mrs. Scruggs said she
believes her late husband
would have been thrilled to
learn about the flag's exis-
tence today.
"I think he would really
be surprised and glad to see
it. He would recall all those
memories," she said.
Col. Scruggs has been
touched by the story involv-
ing his father's WWII expe-
rience, especially since his
father rarely spoke of his
life during that time and
perhaps more so than oth-
ers because of the Colonel's
own military experiences.
Col. Scruggs was a com-
rrand pilot during the Viet-
nam War and vice com-
mander of the 379th Heavy
Bombardment Wing during
Desert Storm. He spent 30
years in the Air Force, retir-
ing in 1992.
"My Dad's experience
really hit hdme," said Col.
Scruggs.

DISC PROBLEMS


Even small deviations in a brake
disc can cause vibrations that can
be felt at the brake pedal. To check
for a disc that is out-of-true, the
auto technician will use a dial indi-
cator. Thickness variations can be
detected with calipers or a
micrometer. Even a tiny thickness
variation of one or two thou-
sandths of an inch is enough to
warrant machining or replacing
the disc..Such variations are usu-
ally the result of warping or a disc
that is mounted so that it wob-
bles. The biggest cause of warped
discs is over-torquing lug nuts
with an air wrench. Foreign matter
lodged between the hub and the
disc is another culprit. Always
replace or machine brake discs in
pairs.
Disc brakes perform best when
they are regularly inspected by a
professional; bring your car to

Martin County to
vote again on mobile
home lot amendment

Martin County commis-
sioners attempted to pass
an emergency amend-
ment to the county's
growth plan on Sept. 18
that would have enabled
the owners of mobile
homes to construct single-
family units on the lots
they owned.
The measure failed
because state law requires
unanimous votes on
emergency amendments,
and Commissioner Sarah
Heard cast a dissenting
vote, disagreeing with the
other commissioners on
the amendment.
Mobile home park resi-
dents had asked the com-
mission for the amend-
ment saying that they had
trouble finding insurance
for their mobile homes,
but Commissioner Heard
expressed concerns that
the current proposal
might be exploited by con-
dominium developers.
After the emergency
amendment vote failed,
the commissioners voted
a second time to change
the wording of the request
so it would no longer be
classified as an emer-
gency, thus only requiring
a simple majority to pass.
The second vote was also
4-1, with Commissioner
Heard dissenting.
If the amendment pass-
es state review, it may
come up for a vote again
in December.

Patrol
From page Al
with a clearly marked vehi-
cle equipped with police
scanners and radios so they
can quickly report any sus-
picious behavior. They are
taught to never intervene in
a crime situation since they
have no actual law enforce-
ment authority. Volunteer
patrol officers are trained in
several specific areas, such
as patrol techniques, check-
ing on vacation houses,
radio procedures, traffic
direction and vehicle posi-
tioning, city codes and ordi-
nances and securing crime
scenes.
Sgt. Jacobson said that
anyone interested in serving
as a volunteer must go
through an exhaustive back-
ground check before being
accepting into the program.
"We don't take just any-
body," he said. "No one with
a jail record is accepted. You
can't use us to work off a
community service or
parole obligation either."
Many of the current Citi-
zens on Patrol are local
retirees looking for a way to
fill their hours and con-
tribute to the community at
the same time. One of the
newest volunteers is Mary
Sheppard, who began
answering phones at the
police station in August.
Before moving to Stuart
about 40 years ago, the for-
mer legal secretary who
said she's in her 70s, without
going into detail had also
worked for the warden of
the Virginia State Peniten-
tiary. She found her perfect
fit as a volunteer two days a
week and answers up to 14
calls an hour. She helps to
direct non-emergency calls
so dispatchers can devote
their time to true emergency
situations.
"I just wanted to volun-
teer and be of some use to
somebody and not just sit
home and waste my time,"
Mrs. Sheppard said.
Stuart resident Eric
Bergstrbm finished his Citi-
zens on Patrol training last


April and has been
patrolling the streets of the
city ever since.
This 74-year-old Wiscon-
sin native took a rather
roundabout way of landing
in Stuart, first retiring on an
Arizona ranch about 15
years ago, after living in the
Cayman Islands where he
worked for the tourist
board. When the hay got too
heavy to haul on the ranch,
he said, he and his wife first
retired to Putnam County
northwest of Orlando
before eventually moving to
Stuart to be closer' to their
children.
"The whole idea, behind
us (volunteers) is to relieve
an officer for more impor-
tarit duties and cover some
of the day-to-day activities,":
he said.
This is Mr. Bergstrom's
second stint as a law
enforcement volunteer. He
worked for a year in the Put-
nam County Sheriff's citizen
program, where he was the
first volunteer in the coun-
ty's inaugural program.
Now, he's currently
undergoing training on the
city of Stuart's police boat,
which he said will free up
the certified officer onboard
"to do the heavy-duty stuff."
The best part of being a vol-
unteer to him is becoming
familiar with the city and its
residents.
"We get to meet a lot of
people and get to know the
community better," he said.
"The main thing,, though, is
the contact with the peo-
ple."
One of the force's longest-
term volunteers is former
Broward County Sheriff's
deputy Joe Marchiselli, who
began in 2000. Prior to mov-
ing to Stuart from Deerfield
Beach in 1997, Mr. Marchis-
elli worked for 19 years on
corrections and hospital
detail, as well as serving as a
bailiff.
He said that Sgt. Jacobson
asked him to join the Stuart
police force after he intro-
duced himself, but he
declined, saying he'd
already paid his dues. It was
his wife Maureen who final-

ly prodded him into action.
"I was actually sitting on
the couch at home, and my
wife said, 'get out and get a
job,'" he said.
Sgt. Jacobson said that
Mr. Marchiselli's law-
enforcement background
has made him a real asset to
program.
"Joe, being a former
police officer, came with all
of the skills and wherewith-
al," he said.
As a Citizen on Patrol, Mr.
Marchiselli performs every-
thing from crowd control at
events and parades to
neighborhood canvasses;
One of the volunteers' best
contributions is helping out
in traffic 'control situations,
he said.
i"f somebody gets stuck
on the Roosevelt Bridge,
we'll go there and stay until
the tow truck comes," he
said. "Why send a regular
officer, when we can go?"
Both he and Mr.
Bergstrom said that Police
Chief Edward Morley is
completely supportive of
the volunteers and their
contributions.
"He backs up us 100 per-
cent," Mr. Marchiselli said.
There are currently some
14 volunteers it the Stuart
Police Department's pro-
gram, some of which are
only seasonal residents in
the city.
Sgt. Jacobson said that the
types of people who volun-
teer for Citizens on Patrol
really don't need much
oversight and attributed,
that characteristic to the
older generation's strong
work ethic.


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.

munity Affairs (DCA).
Also known as the Land
Protection Incentives
Amendment, the Valliere
Amendment alters the
county's current limitation
of one house per 20 acres
in the western rural area,
changing it to one house
per two acres. In exchange,
developers must set aside
at least 50 percent of the
property in land trusts as
conservation lands'
For more than an hour
on Sept. 18, opponents of
the amendment pleaded,
cajoled, sang and even
showed off a pet armadil-
lo, but they couldn't con-
vince the commission to
approve another public
hearing.
Before opening the pub-
lic speaking period that
morning, Commission
Chairman Michael DiTerl-
izzi emphasized that the
public hearing on the mat-
ter was closed and would
not be reopened, asking
the speakers to keep com-
ments "brief and non-
repetitive."
Jensen Beach resident
Claudia Levy -proved cre-
ative as well. She set her
anti-growth plea to the
tune of "Old MacDonald
Had a Farm," which she
then proceeded to sing.
"Cluster, cluster in the
west, this idea needs a
rest," she sang. "It will not
protect our lands from the
greedy grabbing hands."
As she invited those in
attendance to sing or hum
along and waved her
hands in the air like a con-
ductor, she finished up the


Bonds
From page Al
to tax property to repay the
bonds.
That all changed on
Sept. 6, when the state's
highest court ruled against
a $135 million road project
in Escambia County on
Sept. 6 because county
commissionfi. there had
not sought voter approval'
first.
, Supreme Court Justice
Kenneth Bell, writing for
the court, said distinguish-
ing between taxing power
and tax revenue was legal
fiction and not backed up
by the state constitution.
Florida's constitution
states that voter approval
is necessary for the
issuance of bonds that
mature in more than a
year's time, but previous
court justices had made
the aforementioned dis-


tinction that today's jus-
tices are rejecting.
Martin County Develop-
ment Director Jeff Oris
said the new ruling means
there could now be a much
longer wait for roadways
and large utility projects
costing sev\:-ilu million
dollars. In order to shorten
the delays, he hopes to
holds referendums for
"packages" of projects that
benefit the entire county
rather than just one bond
issue at a time.
"We're not faced with
not being able to do any
projects," he said. "We just
need to package them up
and do the education part
to let the public know the
benefit. For us to do a $1.2
million project in Hobe
Sound, it would be hard to
convince someone in
Jensen Beach that he or
she should approve that
on a referendum."
The first county project
to see a delay will be a $1.2
million sewer project in
downtown Hobe Sound,
which will be pushed back
several weeks. The county
was planning on borrow-
ing for the work since the
Hobe Sound Community
Redevelopment Area


last stanza with "So I sing
with all respect, this is one
you should reject."
Ms. Levy was referring to
the Valliere Amendment's
plan requiring developers
to "cluster" developments
and leave more contigu-
ous green space intact.
In order to demonstrate
how easy it is to form a
land trust, real estate
agent Giovanna Gallotini
put on her own version of
show and tell.
Pulling her pet armadillo
out of her bag, she
announced the formation
of her own land trust.
,"Have you ever heard of
the Foundation and Land
Trust for the Protection
and Advancement of
Women and Armadillos in
Martin County?" she
asked. "My lawyer tells me
that, with the language the
way it is, there is no way
you can keep us from par-
ticipating in the owner-
ship, management and
operation of any of the
90,000 acres which will be
donated."
Ms. Gallotini compared
the commission's public
review of the. Valliere
Amendment to the Martin
County School Board's
handling of the school
concurrency issue. She
said the school board has
held dozens of workshops
and public hearings on
that particular issue and
could learn a thing or two
from the Martin County
Commission on how to
save time and effort.
"You want a new amend-
ment, you bang that suck-


(CRA) only raises about
$600,000 in increment tax
revenues yearly and offi-
cials didn't want to take all
of the zone's taxes for two
years straight.
Each of the county's
seven CRAs is designed to
pay for its own infrastruc-
ture projects, although it's
not a requirement, Mr.
Oris said. He also clarified
that the other Hobe Sound
sewer project in Banner
Lake would not be affected
since it was funded out of
the Hobe Sound CRA's
budget in conjunction
with a community devel-
opment block grant.
The county had also
hoped to use tax incre-
ment financing for major
roadwork along Mapp
Road in Palm City and
Indian River Drive in
Jensen Beach, although
neither project was sched-
uled as of yet.
Mr. Oris explained that
Mapp Road needed to be
rebuilt and have its base
elevation reset, while the
present Jensen Beach por-
tion of Indian River Drive
was never intended to
carry the amount of traffic
it handles today. It's, an
issue that can't be funded

er together without both-
ering anybody," she said.
"Public 'workshops? We
don't need no stinkin'
workshops."
Peggy Hess of Jensen
Beach couched her com-
mentary within the lyrics
of the Jethro Tull song,
"Thick as a Brick."
Community activist
Jackie Trancynger, also of
Jensen Beach, has been
known to alter her appear-
ance in the past to grab the
attention of commission-
ers. When she appeared
before them on Aug. 21,
she wore black, explaining
to commissioners that
they should "just let the
amendment die."
Ms. Trancynger says her
main beef with the
amendment is what she
describes as the rush to get
it through and the fact that
it's changed substantially
since the public has had
the opportunity to hear
about it.
"They (the commission-
ers and city staff) changed
it on Aug. 21, and we
haven't seen the final thing
yet," she said. "I don't see
what the rush is. We got
Atlantic Ridge without a
change in the comprehen-
sive plan."
She said that if Commis-
sioner Valliere was tired of
all the public commentary
about the amendment
bearing her name, then
perhaps it was time to
withdraw from public
service. She also alluded to
a prior controversy over
whether the commissioner
actually resided in Stuart


solely out of the Jensen
Beach CRA, though.
The Jensen Beach CRA
doesn't really have a big
budget," he said. "It's the
county's smallest CRA and
only raises a $150,000 in
increment taxes."
The Supreme Court's
ruling could also affect
new school construction
and other projects under-
taken by the Martin Coun-
ty School District in the
future.
The district utilizes cer-
tificates of participation
(COP) that are also under-
written by increment
taxes, so the school board
must now also seek a refer-
endum each time it wants
to borrow against them.
District Public Informa-
tion Officer Cathleen
Brennan said that the
court's decision would not
affect any school con-
struction projects in the
near future.
"In our five-year district
facilities work program,
we have no COPs sched-
uled," he said. "It's not
going to impact any of our
current projects, and there
were no plans to use COPs
in the foreseeable future."
Since the Florida
Supreme Court's decision
affects the way in which
the state's municipal and
educational boards fund
their capital projects, sev-
eral organizations are
protesting the court's rul-
ing, including the Florida
Redevelopment Associa-
tion and the Florida Asso-
ciation of Counties (FAC).
The latter filed a motion
for a rehearing on Sept. 10,
which the court accepted
and has scheduled for
early October, according
to FAC spokesperson Cra-
gin Mosteller. She said that
the justices went too far in
their recent ruling.
"They took it a step fur-
ther and said that 30 years
of case law was wrong,"
she said. "Our concern was
that the court might not
realize how far reaching
the implication of its deci-
sion could be."

or in Sewall's Point.
"If you have really had
enough of this constitu-
tional office," she said to
Commissioner Valliere,
"perhaps you should retire
to the quiet of your condo-
minium in Stuart."
Not everyone speaking
out against the amend-
ment sang, dressed up or
showed off their mascots.
Some, such as Robert
Cartwright, simply chal-
lenged commissioners to
think more about the ram-
ifications of new growth in
western Martin County.
He asked them how they
planned on providing
water to the new develop-
ments when most of South
Florida is having trouble
recuperating from the
effects of a severe draught.
"The lake (Okeechobee)
is at nine and a half feet at
this time. We're starting
out three feet below last
year at the beginning of
the dry season. I hope the
DCA is going to ask you,
where are you going to get
the water from."
Commissioners Lee
Weberman and Sarah
Heard cast the dissenting
votes on the Valliere
Amendment Aug. 21. Mr.
Weberman has said all
along that he feels the Val-
liere Amendment isn't
necessary.
"I just think it's extra leg-
islation and adds more
language to our comp plan
that doesn't need to be
there," he said. "On top of
that, there's a lot of oppo-
sition. Most people just
don't like it."

T hat first view of
Machu Picchu is
spectacular.
It's why most people go to
Peru in the first place. It's
such a mystical site with an
alluring history. It's a place
you'll never. forget.
But there's more to see
in Peru and maybe you'll
find another place that
sings to you even more.
You won't know until you
get there.
I've learned over the
years that as travelers, we
all have a special spot and
sometimes it's unexpect-
ed.
For me, I prefer Egypt's
pyramid of Sakkara to the
Great Pyramid, India's
Jaipur palaces to the Taj
Mahal and Teton National
Park to Yellowstone.
Get my point?
In Peru I actually prefer
the lovely Sacred Valley
along the Urubamba River
to Machu Picchu.
As I've written, I also
love the Peruvian rainfor-
est in Puerto Maldonado.
Tucked away between two
rivers in the Amazon
Basin, it's brimming with
abundant flora and fauna.
What I like most is the
gentleness of the rainfor-
est, combined with the
adventure. But that's me
and luckily I'll return
there with others in
November.
I recognize though, that
some people are drawn to
entirely different spots in
Peru. For some it's the
Amazon River in Iquitos.
For others, it might be
Lake Titicaca, high in the
Andes. For others still, it
could be the spellbinding.
Nazca Lines.
I've been to them all and
found each fascinating.
Due to the recent
earthquake, driving to the
Nazca Lines might be
tough today (flying is OK).
The drives interesting
though, especially when
you arrive ii Ica, which

was hit hard by the
quake).
Ica is home to Dr.
Cabrera's small, but
amazing museum. It
houses a huge collection
of carved stones, showing
ancient images of the
earth. His collection is
controversial, but he
maintains it's been carbon
dated to 13 million years
ago. When I first saw it, I
literally gasped. I was in
awe of what I saw and felt,
sensing the stones were
beyond this world.
As you leave Ica, prepare
for another "out of this
world" experience, the
Nazca Lines. They must be
seen from a plane, making
some people speculate
only extra-terrestrials
could have created them.
Small stones in the desert
form more than 100
immense images, such as
a hummingbird, monkey,
lizard, spider, flower and
even a spaceman.
To my knowledge, no
one knows the true history
of the lines.
So once you've been
there, maybe Ica or Nazca
will become your favorite
place.
Of course you might
also be drawn to Lake
Titicaca. I know many
people feel-their time
there is truly "out of this
world," .


At 12,530 feet, this
turquoise lake is set
within a quasi-lunar
landscape. When I was
there, we started our tour
at the sacred burial site of
Sillustani and moved on to
see the bird life of Lake
Umayo.
The next day we traveled
to the amazing temple of
Aramu Muru and ended
our day on the floating
islands of Uros. Made
from reeds by the native
people, you literally
bounce along with each
step you take on the
islands.
Some people also
venture out to Taquile
Island for a somewhat
primitive overnight stay
with local families or on
the Islands of the Sun and
Moon.
So Lake Titicaca might
just be your very special
place.
Of course, it could also
be the Amazon River near
Iquitos. I've been there
twice and enjoyed it both
times. Once you're past
bustling Iquitos, you'll
board a thatched boat and
head downstream to your
jungle lodge.
However, you might be
lucky enough to board one
the new luxury riverboats
for a week (try Interna-
tional Expeditions). When
I went years ago, we only
had the lodges to choose
from.
It was certainly an
adventure staying in huts
with no electricity and
only kerosene lamps for
light. We quickly learned
to take late afternoon
showers, after the sun had
warmed the rooftop
supply of water. Then we'd


walk to dinner along
lantern lit boardwalks, set
high above the river's
annual flood line.
Each day we'd hike
through the jungle,
visiting native villages,
seeing all sorts of plants
and animals (including
pink dolphins) and
reveling in some of the
most stunning sunsets
ever.
A few years ago, a friend
went on one of my group
tours to Peru. At home,
she grows magnificent
orchids and so I thought
she'd love the Amazon.
She wasn't drawn to it at
first and I practically had
to twist her arm to go.
As we were flying home I
asked what was her
favorite part of our trip.
She sheepishly smiled,
laughed and said, "The
Amazon."
That's the way it goes.
You never know what your
favorite spot might be
until you get there,
especially in the magical
land of Peru.

The first robbery
occurred just after 10:30
p.m. on Sept. 17 when two
men wearing ski masks
entered the Rightway
Food and Deli at 1880
Palm Beach Road.
One of the suspects pro-
ceeded to jump on the
counter and ordered the
clerk to hand over the


money. The other suspect
stood guard at the door
while pointing a silver,
semi-automatic handgun
at the clerk and threaten-
ing to kill him.
Both suspects wore
long-sleeve black shirts,
black pants and black
gloves and escaped in the
direction of Palm Beach


Road with an undeter-
mined amount of money.
Less than 10 hours later
on Sept. 18, two men
entered the check-cash-
ing business, Any Kind
Checks Cashed, at 2810 S.
Federal Highway, about 8
a.m. and announced a
holdup.
One of the suspects was
armed with a revolver.
The two robberies then
fled south on Federal
Highway in a white sedan
with tinted windows.
Anyone with any infor-
mation about either rob-
bery is asked to contact the

Identity theft might not show up on credit reports


Times are changing.
Ten years ago, shred-
ders were found only
in offices, Social Security
numbers were used as
identification numbers and
people didn't think twice
about throwing canceled
checks in the trash.
Today, things are differ-
ent.
Shredders are becoming a
common household
appliance, the Social
Security number is no
longer used as a "public"
identification number and
most people think twice
about tossing canceled
checks and other confiden-
tial information in the trash.
The reason for these
changes is that identity theft
is now the fastest growing
white collar crime in the
nation.
Being a computer techni-
cian, I am consulted just
about weekly by people and
businesses on how to
protect personal and private
information. At the start of
these consultations, we go
through a question-and-
answer period where I try to
assess where the risks are:
what kind of information is

at risk, how is it stored and
is it vulnerable? The more I
do this, the more I see
certain patterns emerge.
First, there seems to be a
misconception that identity
theft is primarily a financial
issue. In other words, people
are surprised to learn that
you can have your identity
stolen and never have it
show up on your credit
report or even have the
event be related to a bank
account or credit card.
If your identity is stolen it
could be used by someone
to get medical treatment in
your name, and next thing
you know, your medical
records are corrupted with
someone else's blood type
and medical history..
This is a bad situation that
your credit monitoring
service won't necessarily
catch.
An identity thief might
use your good name as an
alias while committing a
crime.
Again, a credit monitoring
service won't alert you when
this happens. You are likely
to find out about it when
the police show up at your
door with a warrant because


SEAN MCCARTHY
Compute This

the guy using your name
never showed up in court.
A second misconception
is what I call the "locking
the barn after the horse has
been stolen" syndrome.
People tend to get lulled
into a false sense of security
once they start enacting
good habits, such as
securing their computers,
shredding personal infor-
mation and actively taking
steps to protect their
identities.
These are definitely some
good habits people must get
into, but even if your
computer and your infor-


nation is locked up like Fort
Knox, keep in mind your
information is already "out
there in the world."
As we go through life and
do common things, such as
apply for loans, medical
insurance, driver licenses
and such, we are invariably
giving out that same
information that we are
protecting at home. The
questions you need to ask
yourself are, "how many
companies out there already
have my information?" and
"are these companies taking
the same steps to safeguard
my information as I am?"
In most cases, they are.
Unfortunately, in some
cases that answer is no. Just
about every week we can
hear on the news about
some bank or other organi-
zation that has a computer
stolen or somehow loses a
bunch of people's informa-
tion. Sometimes millions of
identities are compromised.
Why am I writing about
identity theft?
Because I just finished
training on the subject and
have earned the title of
"Certified Identity Theft Risk
Management Specialist."

Propagating roses from


stem cuttings not hard


If you are like me, you
find it very rewarding to
propagate your own
flowers.
Not only do you have the
satisfaction of watching
your prize grow, but you
also save yourself a few
dollars by turning one stock
plant into multiple speci-
mens.
There are certain things
you will need to get started.
First, you will need a good
pair of bypass pruning
shears. This is important so
that you can make precise
clean cuts. Next you will
need a good quality potting
soil. Choose a brand that is
light and not heavy in
consistency. A seed starting
mix would be an ideal
choice.
You will also need a
rooting hormone, such as
Rootone or Fast Root.
You're almost ready.
You will still need some
plain one-gallon pots and
wooden skewers that you
can use for stakes.
You also need a spray
bottle and some plastic
bags.
Now that you have all
your supplies, it's time to
have some fun.
The first thing to do is
find the best stems to use
for your cutting. Most rose
varieties will root well at
any age, but it is best to use
firm but young stems. You
should use stems where the
flower petals have just
fallen off or are fading. You
always want to be sure to
leave at least three to five
leaves on the stem you are
trying to propagate. The
leaves on the stem help to
produce root-promoting
hormones for better

success.
Do not let your cuttings
wilt before working with
them. If they wilt, your
chances for success will be
dramatically diminished. It
is a good idea to keep a
spray bottle handy filled
with plain water to keep the
cuttings moist while you
are working with them.
Roses, unlike other
plants, are not fussy about
where the cut is made on
the stem. They have the
ability to form roots almost
anywhere along the stem. I
have heard of some people
that make small vertical
slits at the base of the stem
by using a sharp knife. This
process can help the
rooting process be more
successful.
You are now ready to
place your stems in their
new homes.
Before placing your
stems in the soil, first
moisten the base of the
stem and dip it in the
rooting hormone. Shake off
any excess powder.-
Make a small hole in the
soil with your finger, or


some other suitable object,
place your specimen in the
hole and secure.
Place your plants in a
bright location but not in
direct sun.
Proper moisture is
essential for success in
rooting roses. They need a
very humid environment
for proper development.
One way to achieve this is
to place a plastic bag over
the plant and use the
skewers as stakes to keep
the bag from touching the
plants.
Some rose varieties will
produce roots in as little as
two weeks while other
varieties will take longer.
During the winter, the
process can take as long as
seven weeks. To tell if a
plant is rooted, gently tug
on the plant and if it offers
resistance, it is most likely
rooted. Once your plants
are well rooted, move them
to a shaded area for several
days before putting them
into a brighter location. If
you move them to direct
sun too soon, they may wilt
and possibly die.
With some luck and
practice, you can become
an expert at producing your
own roses. The process is
both challenging and lots of
fun.
Next week: Learn about a
plant that loves to be
ignored.

Sheriff Crowley explained
that his deputies' hands
were bound without the
new law, since smugglers
are frequently legal resi-
dents or U.S. citizens.
"This (new law) will give
us more teeth to fight
them," Sheriff Crowley said.
"We don't want to let them
go. They're living on blood
money."
Rep. Harrell said that it
was time that Florida took a
leadership role in enforcing
its'coastlines.
"I think that this is a criti-
cal time, and we're now tak-
ing the lead on controlling
our coastline and our bor-
ders," she said. "This is a
very important step we're
taking today."
House Bill 107 will be
submitted for committee
review and discussion dur-
ing the first legislative ses-
sion in 2008, according to
Jody Davis, Rep. Harrell's
legislative assistant.

Gum disease is hard to swallow for most people


ast week I wrote about
dental health for
children and this week
it's our turn.
Adults who don't practice
good oral hygiene are more
likely to get gingivitis and
periodontal disease that can
lead to expensive surgery
and tooth loss.
The jury is still out on the
link between gum disease
and heart disease, but there
is growing evidence that a
healthy mouth sets the tone
for the rest of the body.
Periodontal disease is an
infection of the gums that
support the teeth. It is
caused by plaque, a sticky
film of bacteria that con-
stantly forms on the teeth. It
attacks the gum line
between the teeth and the


SHELLEY KOPPEL
Alive and Well
gum, in an area known as
the sulcus.
As the disease progresses,
the tissues break down and
it is harder for them to hold
on to the teeth.
Gingivitis, a mild form of
the disease, may come first,


only affecting the gums. At
this early stage, the disease
is reversible. As it progresses
and more tissue and even
bone is affected, surgery is
often the only way to save
teeth.
The American Dental
Association says there are
warning signs that may
signal a problem.
Gums that bleed easily.
Red, swollen, tender
gums
Gums that have pulled
away from teeth.
Persistent bad breath or
bad taste.
Permanent teeth that are
loose.
Any changes in the way
teeth fit together when you
bite.
Any change in the fit of
partial denture.


Gum diseases may have
no warning signs, so the
ADA recommends regular
dental checkups and regular
cleaning.
At home, you can practice
good oral hygiene.
Brush teeth well twice a
day. This does not mean
passing the toothbrush over
the mouth. Teeth should be
brushed for two minutes.
Use a soft-bristled tooth-
brush in good condition
and replace it every few
months, or use an electric
toothbrush and change the
head. Choose toothpaste
and mouth washes contain-
ing fluoride, which
strengthen the teeth.
Clean between teeth
every day with floss or an
interdental cleaner to
remove food and bacteria

from between the teeth.
There are little holders for
floss that make it easier to
manipulate them; be careful
not to be too vigorous and
hurt your gums.
Eat a balanced diet.
Choose foods from all the
basic food groups and make
sure you eat a diet rich in
fruits, vegetable, whole
grains and dairy products.
Limit between-meal snacks
and foods that contain a lot
of sugar. Soda has no
nutrition and a lot of sugar.
If you drink soda, try one
that is artificially sweetened
or stick to water. The
flavored ones make
drinking water less painful
for people who are not
water lovers or just keep
tap water ready in the
refrigerator, cold and
refreshing.
Jacob Liebovici, a dentist
with a master of science
degree in physiology, likens
dental care to car mainte-
nance.
"It's preventive," he said.
"Adults should see the
dentist every six months
and a cleaning is the bare


minimum. You also need
periodic X-rays to diagnose
cavities you can't see and
see the progress of bone
disease."
Dr. Liebovici recom-
mends an electric tooth-
brush if manual dexterity is
an issue, because it may
make it easier to angle the
brush and get to the back
of the mouth.
Soft toothbrushes are the
best choice, because
medium or hard ones can
scratch the surface and cut
the gums, something I have
experienced myself when I
got overly enthusiastic
about brushing.
A pound of prevention in
good oral health is one of
the best investments you
can make. You could save
yourself pain and a lot of
money down the road.

For the past week, I have
been in contact with Hot-
mail, Yahoo, AOL,
Myspace.com and
Myyearbook.com just to
name the most popular
ones.
It is not right to let a
minor open an account
when the Internet is like
the wild, wild West. It
seems like anything goes,
just to make a dollar.
I have opened an
account with
Myspace.com and
Myyearbook.com just to
see what goes on. Well, the
only people who want to
be friends are cyber sick-
o's.
Let us go back to (get-
ting) parent's permission.
I spent hours on the
phone, hours writing let-
ters and hours sending
faxes. For what? To remove
my child from these bad
neighborhoods just to find
out she has made new
screen names now.
I know a lot of you are
thinking I must be com-
puter illiterate. Just to let
you all know. I cut my digi-
tal teeth writing programs
for the U.S. Army Signal
Corp. have a GPA of 3.86
and am a 45-year-old stu-
dent (going) for my Ph.D.
in digital security admin-
istration.
I have done all I can do
here at home. Nowadays
your children can (use) a
friend's, a school's and a
library's computer.
We all need to speak up
as concerned U.S. citizens
and put more regulations
on these companies for
our children's safety.
Editor's note: Many
child experts suggest par-
ents use discipline to set
ground rules on acceptable
Internet usage, including


not allowing their children
to use a home computer
that is not monitored and
explaining' to the adult
parents of friends that
expectation.

Agrees that tragedy
shouldn't come
with money
I to agree with "Should-
n't get money because of
tragic events."
Let's not forget about
the people in the Okla-
homa bombing families,
too.

Not all is fair in high
school football
As grandparents who try
to support their grandchil-
dren when playing sports,
we are very disappointed
with high school football.
It's the same old thing
with some coaches. It's not
the game, it's the winning
and beholding to the "good
old boys" alumni that is
most important.
Our grandson dedicated
his summer vacation to
play football: Practiced
everyday, sometimes twice
a day, extra home exercise,
special dietary drinks
(only) to be placed on a
secondary squad that
rarely, if ever, sees any play
time.
Where is the dedication
of some of the coaches to
all team players?
Most players give a great
deal of time and effort to
the sport, but what (do they
get) in return? To prance
up and down the sidelines,
as the first string plays.
"No child left behind"
must not apply to high
school football.


It's Playtime!

Positive backlash counteracts


negatives on TV ad


Wasn't going to write
another column about
the TV commercial that I
did a couple of months ago
in which I spoke Spanish
with English subtitles, but
recent developments
changed my mind.
I aired the commercial on
English speaking TV chan-
nels, not Hispanic. Just in case
you were out of the country,
or were somehow totally
incommunicado for the past
two months, there was a hue
and cry to this ad like I've
never seen to any commercial
I've done in my 40 plus years
as a car dealer.
It started with lots of very
negative phone calls to me
and theTV channels. One TV
channel, fearing controversy,
initially refused to run my
commercial, but recanted
when I threatened them with
exposing their refusal to run
my ad to their competition
and the FCC.
The negative groundswell
grew to e-mails and letters. I
have to admit that during the
first two or three weeks, I
began to doubt that I was
doing the right thing. Almost
every call, e-mail, or letter
threatened me with boy-
cotting my dealership. After
all, I'm a car dealer and my
commercial was meant to
help me sell more Toyotas, not
make a political statement.
The negativism grew so
intense that the media picked
up on it. The Fort Lauderdale-
based Sun Sentinel did a
feature story on this, docu-
menting a lot of the negative
ads. The Palm Beach Post
followed suit with a similar
story. WPT\- TV ran sex eral
newvs storee. Fox News


I"


EARL STEWART
On Cars

interviewed me and this was
carried on the network,
nationwide, as well as XM and
Sirius worldwide.
Magazines, the Internet
chat groups, blogs, YouTube
and about every other kind of
media jumped on this story.
That's when the "positive
backlash" began. What I had
hoped for actually came to
past.
The "silent majority" that
we always hear about
suddenly found their voice.
The average American is a
good person without preju-
dice and has lots of common
sense, but she doesn't get
motivated enough from aTV
commercial to make phone
calls or send e-mails. The
average American does get
motivated when she sees
someone being unjustly
accused of being a traitor,
called vulgar names and
being threatened with
boycotts to his business.
These good folks rallied to my
support and now 1I am getting
a steady flow of e-mails, blog
posting iiand phone Lall!
supporting in' Hispanic l V


ad. The negative comments
have died off to an occasional
whimper.
Ironically, my initial
motivation was only to sell
more Toyotas. Not only did I
do this (last month I sold 375
new Toyotas, one of the best
months in my 32 years as a
Toyota dealer), but I got a
bonus. That was a much
better understanding of what
makes us Americans tick.
Don't get me wrong. I was
always proud to be an
American, but after so many
people sprang to my defense
after I was so viciously
attached because of my
Hispanic TV commercial, I
was even more proud.
Americans like to root for the
underdog and they believe in
standing up for what's right.
When they saw me being
piled on by a bunch of nuts
and bigots (not all of them
were of this ilk; a few were
simply uninformed or
misunderstood my ad).
Ninety-nine percent of
Americans understand that
we are all immigrants; we only
differ in how long ago we, our
parents or grandparents were
fortunate enough to find
sanctuary in the land of the
free and the home of the
brave.

it's hard for a newcomer to

On one of the first run-

voices sing, then the altos


sing the same phrase, and
finally the sopranos chime

time doing the right thing. Your heart is in it. Your
spirit is strong. Go all out and make it happen.
Cancer-June 22-July 22
Your strong belief in doing things right is a major
factor in your wonderful personal growth. It is an
old-fashioned value called "conscience." When
you get that "right" feeling nothing can slow you
down or stop you. You have come a long way.
There is still a long way to go. Your great well of
love and spirit will always keep you going.
Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
You have been working pretty hard all summer.
Now, with the harvest time at hand, would be
good to take a step back, catch a second wind,
refocus and bring present priorities to harvest.
Don't start any new projects before finishing cur-
rent ones. Then enjoy the fruits of your labors.
Now watch your joy level soar.
Virgo-Aug. 23-Sept. 22
When you let your higher nature guide you, wiser
decisions are made. Set your sights high and keep
living on the edge. This keeps you in creative,
rather than stressful, energy. You are always learn-
ing newi things. You are tireless in your pursuit of,
self-mastery. You are capable of very high achieve-
ment. Love it or don't do it.
Libra-Sept 23-Ot. 22
This is your turn as leader of the zodiac pack. The
light within you continues to shine and brighten the
world of others around you. You are a whole and
perfect reflection of the spirit that balances and sus-
tains life. Stay excited, give thanks and much more
will soon be added to your wonderful life.


Sunday


Scorpio-Ot. 23-Nov. 21
There is new excitement in you. You have strong
desires. You are hot right now and living on a nat-
ural high. You can deal with anything life brings
you. You are healing old wounds. The past has
been released. You live one day at a time and
don't worry about the future. Hang on and enjoy
the ride.
Sagittarius-Nov.22-Dec.21
You continue to move forward. Your strong open
heart is a wonderful conduit for new truth and
ideas that emerge from your spirit. You are on a
creative high right now. Use this energy to start
new projects for next year as well as bringing old
ones to a fruitful harvest. Let gratitude beyour atti-
tude and you will continue to flourish.
Capricorn-Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Your inner strength, good nature and strong vision
continue to bring hope and healing to your life
and relationships. Your true happiness is meas*
ured by the joy you feel in your heart. Continue to
increase the joy. Your ideas are sound. Your future
is bright. Why? Because you live from the inside
out. It only gets better from here.
Aquarius-Jan. 20-Feb. 18
Your positive attitude is contagious. It's hard to say
no to a positive Aquarian. Your inner wisdom is
like a light that shows the truth to yourself and
others living a higher spiritual life. This is a gift
given at birth. Using it and being of service to oth-
ers is the source of your real happiness. It doesn't
get any better than this.

St. Lucie's Cultural Affairs Council
has money for mini-grants


BY SHELLEY KOPPEL
Entertainment writer
The St. Lucie County Cul-
tural Affairs Council (CAC)
has some money to give
away, but organizations
with projects in mind have
to apply and they have to
do it soon.
"We're in the mini-grant
cycle," says director Jody
Bonet. "The deadline is
Oct. 12, and we give $2,000
to organizations to pro-
gram events that are open
to the public."
Among recipients in 2007
were the Treasure Coast
Opera Society for its pres-
entation of "La Boheme,"
the Fort Pierce Jazz & Blues
Society for its annual Jazz
festival and Mardi Gras
Parade, the Conservation
Alliance of St. Lucie County
for its "Party in the Park"
fundraiser, the Friendly
Sons and Daughters of Ire-
land for the St. Patrick's Day
Festival, The St. Lucie Pro-
fessional Art League for the
Art and All that Jazz Festival
and the St. Lucie Film Soci-
ety for the documentary on
Zora Neale Hurston.
The grants will be award-
ed at the CAC's annual


meeting on Nov. 30.
The Council, which helps
coordinate and promote
cultural events and the arts
in St. Lucie County, is plan-
ning several events for the
upcoming season, includ-
ing a special event in honor
of the Highwaymen, the
African-American painters
from Fort Pierce.
The group was inducted
into the Florida Artists Hall
of Fame in 2004, but the
award itself is only now
coming to St. Lucie County
and the county is planning
an event at the Fort Pierce
Community Center, 600 N.
Indian River Drive, on Nov.
4, from noon-4 p.m., to
commemorate its new
home.
The Art in Public Places
program is planning a spe-:
cial exhibit showcasing
sculptors from across the
state. The sculptures will be
placed in county buildings
and in Fort Pierce.
The Historical Museum
of St. Lucie County, which
falls under the CAC, is plan-
ning an outdoor exhibit
highlighting Florida's boat-
ing and fishing heritage,
with different stations
focusing on different eras of


history, including the Semi-
nole and Spanish eras and
the role of the area as a
training facility during
World War II. It will feature
exhibits on which kids can
climb.
"This project has been in
the works for several years,"
Ms. Bonet said. "The Indi-
an River Lagoon is has such
a major role in our history."
An important part of the
CAC's year is Zora Fest,
honoring Fort Pierce
author Zora Neale Hurston,
which will be held on the
last weekend in March next
year.
This year, there will be
programs at Treasure Coast
High School in southern St.
Lucie County on the week-
end before the festival to
introduce residents from
southern St. Lucie and Mar-
tin counties to Ms. Hurston
and perhaps lure them to
the festival itself.
I With such a busy sched-
ule, the CAC is always look-
ing for volunteers to assist
in planning and imple-
menting ideas that benefit
the cultural life of the com-
munity.
"They just have to tell us
what they like to do," Ms.
Bonet said. "We'll help
them find a fit."
For more information

gram, to volunteer or to find
out about CAC events, call

Recipes for three baked Italian specialties easy, delicious


Hello, smart shop-
pers. Hope you had
a good week.
Last week I gave you my
spaghetti sauce recipe.
Today it's baked ziti and
Sicilian lasagna made with
eggplant from Uncle
"Chic"who was of Sicilian
descent. No story today,
there's too much to give
you.
Enjoy. See you next
week.

EGGPLANT
PARMESAN
Serves 4

Eggplant, in my opinion,
is a vegetable that needs a
lot of help to make it
palatable. It contains a
great deal of iron and can
be bitter. When fried, it
absorbs oil like a sponge.
If eggplant is salted, the
salting removes the
bitterness and changes the
oil-absorbing properties.
This extra step takes a
little time, but I think it's
well wdrth it. The end
result is a better tasting
and slower-fat meal.

3 medium eggplant
Salt
2 eggs or egg whites or
equivalent of egg
substitute
1/2 cup water
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon parsley
flakes


Grated Italian cheese
1/4 teaspoon black
pepper
Canola oil
2 (8-ounce) cans tomato
sauce
1 large clove garlic,
peeled
and chopped
1/4 teaspoon oregano
Dash of salt and pepper
8 ounces mozzarella,
regular, low-fat or fat-
free, thinly sliced
Peel eggplant, slice in
scant 1/4-inch rounds.
Layer in a large colander,
sprinkling each layer
generously with salt. Place
colander on a dish or in
the sink. Put a plate on top
of the eggplant and top it
with a pot full of water. Let
the salt "bleed" the
eggplant for one to two
hours. A brown liquid will
drip out of the colander.
When the time is up,
rinse several slices of
eggplant at a time and
squeeze. They will feel like
a wet rag.
There are many different
ways of preparing the
eggplant. I do not use
breadcrumbs because they
absorb too much oil. By
using a flour then egg
wash process, the oil you
use will be minimal.
For egg wash: Beat eggs
and water together.
.Seasoned flour: On a
paper plate, mix flour,
pepper and parsley.
Dredge eggplant slices in


ARLENE BORG
Romancing the Stove
with the Grammy Guru

flour mixture, then in egg
wash. Fry in a small
amount of canola oil until
golden on each side. Drain
on paper towels.
Place a small amount of
tomato sauce in an oven
proof casserole. Layer
eggplant with a sprinkling
of grated cheese, slices of
mozzarella and some
sauce. Continue layering,
ending with sauce. Bake in
a 350- degree oven for 20
to 30 minutes until heated
through.

TOMATO SAUCE
Any kind of tomato
sauce can be used. When
making you own, use a
little oil from the fried
eggplant. It imparts a great
flavor.
Chop garlic and saut6 in
oil. Add tomato sauce and


equal amount of water.
Add oregano, salt and
pepper and let cook for
about 10 minutes.

LOW-FAT
EGGPLANT PARME-
SAN

Prepare eggplant as
explained; do not fry.
Generously treat a cookie
sheet with cooking spray.
Place eggplant in pan,
single file and spray tops
generously. Bake at 425
degrees for 15 minutes
until browned. Prepare
sauce without using oil,
substitute cooking spray.
Prepare casserole and
bake as per regular
instructions.

BAKED ZITI
(NIB)
Serves 6 to 8
Regular or low-fat

Baked ziti is a popular
dish served at Italian
restaurants. It's quick and
easy to make.
By substituting low-fat
or fat-free cheeses, you
can make a meal that's
delicious and actually
good for you. I will give
you the original recipe
and you take it from there.

1 pound ziti or penne
pasta


8 ounces mozzarella,
grated
2 eggs or egg substitute
or
2 egg whites
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black
pepper
2 pounds ricotta
4 tablespoons grated
Romano cheese
1 tablespoon parsley
flakes
1/2 teaspoon garlic
powder
Spaght'ii sauce

Cook pasta in boiling
salted water until slightly
firm. Drain, let cool for
about 10 minutes. Mix
together remaining
ingredients, except for the
sauce.
Add water to some of the
sauce so it is thin. If you
need more thinned sauce
later just make a little
more.
Place pasta in a large,
deep baking pan and
sauce well, mixing thor-
oughly. Add ricotta mix-
ture, fold in and top with a
little more sauce.
Cover pan and bake in a
375-degree oven for about
30 minutes. Uncover and
bake about 5 minutes
more. Remove from oven
and let sit about 15
minutes to set. Cut in
wedges, pass the extra
sauce and grated cheese


and enjoy.

SICILIAN LASAGNA
Serves 6-8

Salt and cook eggplant
according to recipe for
eggplant parmesan. Do
not layer. Before baking
place 2 layers of eggplant
atop baked ziti, saucing
each. Bake according to
baked ziti recipe.

Cinderella
From page 81 ...


it will come together.
Sandi Hellstrom, who
plays the Queen, is striving
for a look of elegance and
royalty.
"Jami (Dolan) wants the
King and Queen elegant
and romantic," she said.
"The Prince is this won-
derful person who comes
from these elegant parents,


but we bicker around and
have a bit of a comic atti-
tude. "
A dancer by training and
profession, she has taught
Jazzercise for more than 25
years.
"I kind of fudge the
singing," she said. "Jim
Trainer (who plays the King)
does the singing."
Josie Murray is playing
Cinderella, a role the 15-
year-old student at Drey-
foos School of the Arts
knows well.
She performs as Cinderel-


Waterfr nt
Grille


la at children's parties and
has her own little business.
Watching her rehearse one
scene from the show
reminds me of how complex
it is to put one person on
stage. I can't imagine coor-
dinating an entire cast.
Jami Dolan has her Cin-
derella talk' and walk
through the words of the
song "In My Own Little Cor-
ner" as they block out each
motion she will make, each
tilt of the head, each toss of
a hand, each turn.

line, the young performer
,gains confidence as she
makes the moves and the
words her own. Ms Dolan
reminds her of her diction.
"Round vowels," she says.
"Don't use a flat 'a.' It
screams of regionalism."
Ms. Murray nods, and as she
repeats the line, the words
are more polished.
When they come to the
line "on the wings of my
fancy I can fly anywhere,"
Ms. Dolan asks the young
actress how she would
move, how, as a dancer, she
would fly.
As Ms. Murray hesitates,
the director demonstrates
how she would handle it,
and they begin a dance
sequence drawing, if I
remember long-ago les-
sons, from ballet.
When they are finished, I.
am exhausted, and all I have
done all evening is write.
The director is finished
with Cinderella for the
night, but she now goes to
Betty Saunders, the musical
director, to put the words
and music together.
I have come to realize that
in order to truly understand
how this play is going to get
to the Lyric stage in Novem-
ber, I'll have to see it from
the inside.
I am going to have a small
part in the chorus. But then
I remember the old theatri-
cal adage, "There are no
small parts, only small
actors."
With a smile, I paraphrase
Norma Desmond in "Sunset
Boulevard:" "I'm almost
ready for my close-up. Mr.
DeMille!"

Scene
From page Bl


"If Jennifer (Jones, the
director) will allow, I'd like
to do it in between the two,"
she sais. "Angela Lansbury
took it over the edge. You


cringe. Patti LuPone was not
as grimy physically. I'd like
to take both the accent and
the physicality in between
the two. They were both


amazing but different."
In addition to school and
performing, Ms. Weir
studies dance and piano, is
secretary of Opus, the
choral group, and president
of the drama club. She is
thrilled to have the oppor-
tunities she's had and
doesn't mind the hard work.
"I love it," she said. "I
wouldn't have it any other'
way."

Martin County High School's Lyle Dankenbring (No. 2) rushes past Mike Dorcelus (No.
19) of Fort Pierce Central High School Thursday, Sept. 20 at Tiger Stadium. The Tigers
won the game 21-14.

Martin County kicks off

district play with 21-14 win


BY MATT DEWHURST
SSports writer
SMartin County entered
Week 3 of the 2007 season as
somewhat of a mystery to
other Treasure Coast teams.
The Tigers began the sea-
son with games against out of
area teams Nease (Ponte
Vedra Beach) and Parkway
.:, Academy (Miramar) and
Sebring, going 2-1.
But without any games
against local competition, it
has been hard to rank their
talent in comparison to dis-
trict rivals such as Jensen
Beach and Fort Pierce Central.
But that all changed Sept.
20.
In Martin County's first
game against local competi-
tion, a District 13-4A match


up against Fort Pierce Central,
the Tigers outlasted a feisty
Cobras team, 21-14, at Tiger
Stadium.
Martin County (3-1, 1-0 dis-
trict) relied heavily on its abili-
ty to run and pass efficiently,
dominating the game more
than the score would indicate.
The Tigers had two touch-
downs called back because of
penalties (a 38-yard run by
Lyle Dankenbring, and an 80-
yard pass and catch from
Ronnie Nelson to Danken-
bring), on top of a few
dropped balls that could have
set up potential scores.
While happy with the win,
Tigers' coach Chuck Kenyon
was upset with his team's
inability to close the game out
with authority.


"What scares me is our
inability to finish a team off,"
Kenyon said. "Whatever
another team does to us; we
can somehow control that but
when you have penalty after
penalty after penalty on big
plays, let's be real... We went
from going up 21-14 at half-
time to taking a knee at 14-
14."
But Kenyon wasn't the only
coach upset with his team's
mental mistakes.
The Cobras had problems
of their own keeping the refer-
ees quiet. Central tallied over
120 yards of penalties, leading
head coach Chris Hutchings
to echo Kenyon's concerns on
negative yardage.

Vero Beach stays No. 1 in Treasure Coast Top 5


Fort Pierce
Westwood
retains second
spot in rankings

BY MATT DEWHURST
AND JOHN MACDONALD
Sports writers

After a week that saw
many of the area's best
falter, one team estab-
lished itself as not only
the top team on the
Treasure Coast, but
perhaps a dominant force
in the state come playoff
time.
1.Vero Beach (4-0) The
team is, of course, Vero
Beach. Coming in unde-


feated, the Indians took
on district foe Palm Beach
Gardens. This rivalry has
become one of the fiercest
in the state with Vero
handing the Gators its
only loss two seasons ago
on Gardens way to a state
championship and Palm
Beach squeaking by Vero a
year ago at the Citrus
Bowl.
This year's game didn't
disappoint, as Gardens
seemed to have an answer
for everything Vero Beach
threw, or more appropri-
ately, ran its way.
The Indians beat the
Gators 24-21, but the close
score is much bigger in
the whole scheme of
things. Vero has a ton of
momentum on their side


and a leg up in District 7-
6A. That will only help its
playoff chances, especially
if they continue to play
this well. The only game
remaining for the Indians
against Treasure Coast
competition is a Week 7
clash with South Fork, so
we will just have to wait
and see how they match
up against the rest of our
Top 5 until then.
Vero Beach is idle this
week before continuing its
assault on the record
books.
2. Fort Pierce Westwood
(3-1) -The Panthers
continue to impress the
area with a stout defense,
but the story this week
was their ability to score.
Westwood put the ball in


the end zone on the
ground, in the air and
even on defense with an
interception. Head Coach
Kevin McMahon contin-
ues to downplay his team's
success, claiming luck in
almost every quote. But
these kids are one play
away (against Vero) from
being our No. 1. Westwood
will play Treasure Coast in
Week 5, which should be
another win for the
Panthers. However The
Titans have shown a ton of
heart season and will have
upset on the mind.
3. Martin County (3-1) -
The Tigers only loss this
season came against state
power Nease. Outside of
that, they have played like
a powerhouse that makes


Tigers


From page B10
"(Penalties) killed us,"
Hutchings said. "I thought we
played our best football to this
point but I would guess we
had 100 yards in penalties.
We're not going to win any
football game with 100 yards
in penalties. Part of that is
inexperience, part of that is
being young. But it's some-
thing we can fix."
Central quarterback Tim
Smith looked good under
center commanding his
offense more like a .veteran,
than a first-year starter. The
sophomore threw for 116
yards and kept his team in the
game with his ability to
scramble out of surefire sacks.
Despite a few ill-advised
throws, he drew praise form
his coach.
"Tim Smith played really
well at quarterback. He made
a few mistakes in judgment
here and there but it was his
best game I've ever seen him
play."
Central opened the scoring
with 2:39 remaining in the
first quarter when Central
running back Mario Chavis
raced in from 10-yards out.
But Martin County answered
quickly. Nelson connected
with Richard Shiller for 27-
yards down to the 12-yard


line, and two plays later,
Dankenbring scored on a 9-
yard run.
The two teams would again
swap touchdowns to make
the score 14-14 with just over
one minute left in the half.
That's when Nelson hit
Dankenbring with a
midrange pass that the run-
ning back turned into a sup-
posed 80-yard touchdown.
The play was called back
however on a penalty.
But the Tigers would get
redemption in the third
quarter when they recov-
ered a Smith fumble near
midfield.
Nelson then orchestrated
an eight-play drive, con-
necting on all four pass
attempts including a 14-
yard strike to Shiller with
7:05 for what proved to be
the game-winning touch-
down.
Nelson got great protec-
tion from an ailing offen-
sive line, which was with-
out starting left tackle
Oscar Rodriguez.
Rodriguez injured his ankle
on the games opening drive
and reserve Alex Cooper
stepped in with out missing
a beat in protecting Nel-
son's blindside.


"It's hard to replace 6-foot-
three- 270 pounds of a kid
with a little bit of an attitude
in Oscar Rodriguez," Kenyon
said. "We challenge kids on a
weekly basis to step up and
we know this game is about
perseverance. We do not let


our expectations drop from
there."
Martin County plays host
to Jupiter Christian on Sept.
28, while Central welcomes
Bay Point School (Miami) at
Lawnwood stadium the
same night.


mistakes. The 21-14 score
against Fort Pierce Central
is deceiving, Martin
County had three "should-
have-been" touchdowns
catches dropped and
another brought back by a
penalty.
This team has talent all
over and will be West-


wood's hardest game in
Week 6 in Stuart. But first
the Tigers' have to get by
Jupiter Christian Sept. 28.

sponsor's exemptions
on the PGA Tour have
been a "hot-button"
issue these past few years.
The idea,behind the
exemptions is to allow the
sponsor footing the rather
large bill for the tourna-
ment, to put someone into
the field who otherwise did
not qualify.
The spots usually go to
local pros, semi-retired pros
or even celebrities who the
sponsor feels has earned the
opportunity or will bring in
more patrons to watch. We
know all too well how often
one of these spots has gone
to a teenage girl from
Hawaii.
Next month, the Ginn sur
Mer Classic at Tesoro, the
first PGA Tour event in Port
St. Lucie, will follow the
tradition of rewarding local
golfers who have shown
they deserve to tee it up
with the best in the busi-
ness.
Bobby Ginn has demon-
strated in the past that he
has the right idea when it
comes to figuring out just
where to send the invitesfor
his events.
Last year, he sent Dakota
Dowd, a then 12-year-old'
with the top U.S. Junior
ranking, an invite to play in
the Ginn Clubs and Resorts
Open in Reunion. She had
wanted to play.in a profes-
sional event before her
mother died.
This time the invitations
go to Derek and Daryl
Fathauer, identical twin
brothers of Jensen Beach,
who have dreamed about
playing golf professionally
ever since they first held
golf clubs at age 10.
Thanks to Ginn, they will
finally get the chance,
making their PGA TOUR
debuts hitting the fairways
just 10. miles from their
home on Oct. 22-28, thanks
to being granted sponsor
exemptions.
"We couldn't be more
excited to give Derek and
Daryl the opportunity to
participate in our tourna-

ment," said John Subers,
tournament director. "Given
their success as amateurs,
and their aspirations of one
day playing professionally,
this is an excellent chance
for them to get their feet wet
and experience what the
PGA Tour is all about.
"We believe that adding
talented golfers like Derek
and Daryl as sponsor's
exemptions allows us to
support athletes local to our
community," he said.
The Fathauer brothers will
become the first identical
twin brothers to playing the
same PGA tour event in
more than 25 years, when
Curtis and Allen Strange
played the 1981 Texas Open.
The brothers, 21, are
graduates of Martin County
High School and seniors at
the University of Louisville.
As they've progressed in
their golf careers, the
accolades have piled up.
Derek has qualified for
the U.S. Amateur three
times, the first time after his
junior year in high school in
2003, and last summer
advanced to the semifinals
of the U.S. Amateur Public
Links.
Entering Louisville, he
was ranked as the No. 6
freshman in the country,
and earned a spot on the
All-Big East team as a
sophomore, also winning
medalist honors as the Big
East individual champion.

average, he received a
repeat All-Big East honor
and was selected as a third
team All-American. He had
his best performance ever at
the U.S. Amateur at the
Olympic Club in San
Francisco this summer,
advancing to the quarterfi-
nals of match play.
Daryl has played in the
U.S. Amateur four times,
and was ranked the nation's
No. 8 freshman entering
Louisville. He has made that
ranking stand up, as he was
named the Conference USA
Freshman of the Year in
2004-05 and found himself
on the All-Big East team
after both his sophomore
and junior seasons.
Daryl helped the Cardi-
nals to a top-25 ranking last
season with a 73.75 scoring
average, third best on the
team, while also earning
medalist honors as the Big
East individual champion.
"What a tremendous
opportunity for us to play
with the best in the world
right in our own backyard,"
Derek said. "Daryl and I
grew up playing golf with
and against each other, and
the whole time we have
always dreamed about
playing together on the PGA
Tour."
"We're grateful to every-
one at Ginn Resorts for
giving us this opportunity.
This will give our many
friends and family in the
area the chance to see us
play with the professionals
right here where we grew
up," addedDaryl.

2007 HURRICANE ARCHIVES

by Joe Zelenak


Hi everybody. As of this writing, the 2007
hurricane season has been far quieter then most
of us expected, at least for the United States. The
story is a much different one for areas such as
Jamaica, Mexico and Nicaragua where hurricanes
Dean and Felix came ashore with 145 mph
winds and even higher gusts. Here is a recap of
what our season has been like so far.
May 9th: Subtropical storm Andrea. A
"hybrid" storm that was partially a warm core
storm, like that of a hurricane and partially a
cold core storm like that of a nor'easter. When a
storm has a mix of both it is classified as sub-
tropical. Andrea did not hit any landmasses.
June 1st: Tropical storm Barry Fornmed in
the Gulf of Mexico and took a Northeast track
across the Gulf and over North Florida.
July 31st: Tropical Storm Chanrel formed in
the Central Atlantic. Chantel did not affect any
landmasses and took a northeast track.
August 13th: Hurricane Dean became the
fourth named storm of 2007 and was also the
first hurricane of the season. Dean became one of
the most intense hurricanes in the Atlantic Basin
on August 20 when it became a category 5
storm. Dean came ashore on August 31st as the
first category 5 storm to make landfall since
Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Dean actually made
two landfalls one was on the Yucatan and the
other was in Veracruz Mexico.
August 19th: Tropical Storm Erin made
landfall in Texas as a minimal 35 mph Tropical
Storm. It was mainly a rain event with severe


flooding occurring everywhere in the storms
path.
August 31st: Hurricane Felix became our
second category 5 storm of the season with max
wind speeds of 160 mph. Felix was the second
storm in the 2007 season to roar ashore as a
category 5 storm. Felix came ashore near
northeastern Nicaragua on September 4, 2007.
This is the same area that suffered severe
flooding during Hurricane Mitch in 1998.
September 9th: Tropical Storm Gabrielle
formed and briefly came ashore near Cape
Lookout North Carolina,
September 13th: Hurricane Humberto
came ashore near the Texas-Louisiana border as a
category 1 hurricane. It surprised forecasters by
rapidly intensifying just before landfall. The peak
winds hit 85 mph and brought heavy rains and
flooding tothe area.
September 12nd: Tropical Storm Ingrid
formed bur quickly fizzled before hitting any
land mass
September 23rd: Tropical storm Jerry was
named. So far it poses no threat to land and will
move through the Central Atlantic.
As of thi, writing, there are several Invest
storms; storms that are monitored, but not yet
named. At least one of these could form into a
new tropical depression or storm. Please do not
become complacent and let your guard down.
Any of these systems could become a tropical
entity at any time. In addition .Ocrober can be
an active month. Always bi,.prcpaed.

A REVERSE MORTGAGE AN

SWEETEN YOUR RETIREMENT!

Are you at least 62 and own your own home? A reverse
mortgage might be right for you. Reverse Mortgages are not
credit based. Credit is not an issue. Can't come to us? I can
come to you. I have helped numerous seniors on the
Treasure Coast with this wonderful product since 2001.
There is no "hard sell" and you are under no obligation to
apply. Have an existing mortgage? You :
may be able to pay it off and never have
to make another payment, and utilize
equity in your property. Would you like
to learn more? Give me a call and get
the facts. ,."
