PORT ST. LUCIE Port St.
Lucie police officer Brian
Kenny has seen more
tragedy in his 39 years than
most do in a lifetime.
Rather than making him
bitter, however, those expe-
riences made him more
determined to spend his life
helping others, a fact that
did not go unnoticed when
his supervisor, Sgt.. Paul
Grahowski, nominated him
for the awa;d he recently
won from the Police
Department: 2007 Officer of
theYear.
"In my opinion, he did
more than anybody I know
to deserve this," said Sgt.

PORT ST. LUCIE -
Their first place of wor-
ship was a movie theatre,
with empty popcorn bins
serving as collection bas-
kets.
But in less than seven
years, the congregants at
St. Bernadette's have
raised enough money to
build a church that will
hold 1,200 people.
On Feb. 11, a ceremoni-
al groundbreaking at sun-
set in St. Lucie West drew
a crowd estimated at
2,000 to witness the first
shovel of dirt being
turned on 18 acres of land
situated where St.
Bernadette Catholic
Church now sits in a tem-
porary building.
The permanent church
is expected to be com-
pleted in two years.
Putting the first shovel
in the dirt was the leader

Ralph Shattuck was given
another chance to dance
with his daughter on
Valentine's Day.
Mr. Shattuck thought
the 2007 Daddy-Daughter
Valentine's Dance with
his daughter, Katie, was
the last he would attend
because of an age limit
for the girls attending.
But then his wife and
mother-in-law took over.

those guys that everybody
likes and he has the respect
of all of his peers."
Officer Kenny has been
with the Port St. Lucie, Police
Department for three years.
Previously a foot patrolman
in New York City, he spent
14 years with that police
department. On Sept. 11,
2001, he lost co-workers
and friends and worked at
Ground Zero for months
afterward.
"It was horrible," he said
simply, when asked about
that time.
Officer Kenny and his
wife moved to Port St. Lucie
three years ago, after decid-
ing it was a good place to
raise a family. They are the

held for the past 20 years

"It's one of my favorite
programs here," said Lori

ist for the city's Parks and
Recreation Department,
which sponsors the event.
"The dads are so sweet;
they really love their girls.
It's just the sweetest
dance you can imagine."
Katie Shattuck is 12,

to move here, and we took

and I love my church. It's
worked out pretty well."
It didn't take long for Offi-
cer Kenny to become
immersed in his new job.
"Back in July, Brian won

,ST. LUCIE COUNTY -
The decision on building
wind turbines in St. Lucie
County has been put on
hold a while longer.
On Feb. 12, the St. Lucie
Board o( .County Commis-
sioners held a seven-hour
meeting, in large part due to
a last-minute agenda item
proposed by Florida Power
& Light to install three wind
turbines on county-leased
land.
The property under dis-
cussion is Blind Creek Park,
land jointly owned by Flori-
da's Department of Environ-
mental Protection and the
South Florida Water Man-
agement District.
The issue was placed on
the commissioners' agenda
because the Acquisition and
Restoration Council was
expected to review the pro-
posal on Feb. 14 and poten-
tially vote on it the following
day. However, the meeting

PRIMER ON X-RAYS
Q: What can you tell me about x-rays?
A: The x-ray, also known as a radiograph, is one of a dentist's essential tools. That's 1
because the x-ray lets the dentist see what's happening beneath and inside objects the
eye can't penetrate. Here are some facts about x-rays:
SWhen x-rays pas through the mouth more of them are absorbed by the denser
portions of the mouth like teeth and bone than by the soft tissue like cheeks and
gums before they strike the film. Teeth appear lighter because fewer x-rays pass .
through them. Conversely, cavities and gum disease appear darker because more x-
rays penetrate them.
The frequency of x-rays depends on an individual patients needs. Your schedule will vary according to
your age, your risk of disease and any signs or symptoms of a problem. You and your dentist can O
discuss an x-ray schedule that's appropriate for your treatment. If you are a new patient, however it's .0
likely your dentist will want to take a set of radiographs to see if there are any hidden conditions, and to'
establish a baseline for further comparison.
Children may need x-rays more frequently than adults because their teeth and jaws are still developing.

was postponed at the
request of FPL.
In a letter dated Feb. 13
and addressed to County
Commission Chairman
Joseph Smith, Eric Silagy,
vice president of FPL, wrote,
"it has always been our
desire and expectation to.
work first with the county
and then to proceed to the
state for its required
approval."
Commissioner. Chris Craft
said the cancellation of the
meeting will allow more
time for the public and the
:commission to express their
concerns on the issue.
"The next step should be
a public hearing where we
have an opportunity to truly
get an understanding of
what's being proposed, and
where, and give the board
an opportunity to weigh in
on whether this is some-
thing we want for St. Lucie
County," said Commission-
er Chris Craft.
Mr. Craft said he has yet to
make up his mind on the
wind turbine issue.
"I haven't come to a deci-
sion on it," he said. "What


I've tried to do is encourage
the conversation about this
to take place. I think the
most important thing is that
we are raising the level of
conversation and dialogue
when it comes to global
warming and climate
change."
Mr. Craft said between
200 and 250 people showed
up at last week's county
commission meeting in
opposition to the wind tur-
bines on Hutchinson Island,
along with a "number of
people who were for them."
"I'm pretty sure that the
further you get from Indian
River Drive, the more sup-
port you find for the project,
and we have to consider the
wishes of the entire commu-
nity," said Mr. Craft. "But
obviously, we don't want
there to be a negative
impact on any group of peo-
ple, and that's one of the
things that is part of the
process; to understand what
these impacts are and, if
there is a net environmental
gain, whether these turbines
lower people's property val-
ues."
Mr. Craft said the com-
missioners must also con-
sider the environmental
issues that may be associat-


ed with wind turbines, such
as the impact on sea turtles
and trout spawning and the
issue of birds flying into tur-
bine propellers.
Mr. Silagy, in his letter to
Commissioner Smith,
requested "immediate per-
mission" to enter the Blind
Creek site, "so that we may
perform measures, such as
archeological surveys, wet-
lands delineation, unex-
ploded ordinance and soil
suitability surveys, and
gather other information
necessary 'to provide the St.
Lucie County Commission
with factual, scientific data
to consider about this proj-
ect."
On Feb. 14, Mr. Craft said
the Board of County Com-
missioners has not made a
decision on the fate of the
wind turbines.
"We haven't had the
opportunity to discuss it as a
board and we haven't had a
real presentation given to
the board on potential
impact," he said. "My job is
to protect the integrity of
the process, and part of that
is getting the county to get
permission to go before the
state about putting the tur-
bines there."

More grow houses found in city

After executing search warrants on two homes, Port
St. Lucie police arrested three more individuals sus-
pected of operating marijuana grow houses in the city.
Police believe the two operations are connected to each
other, but are not related to grow houses found in Port
St. Lucie since mid-2006.
In the recent arrests, police found more than 80 mar-
ijuana plants in a home located in the 500 block of
Northwest Biscayne Drive.
The residents of the home, David M. Devroomen, 34,
and Gennifer S. Smith, 33, have been charged with cul-
tivation of marijuana and conspiracy to commit traf-
ficking in marijuana.
Just a short distance away, in a residence in the 300
block of Northwest Dearman Street, police discovered
approximately 75 marijuana plants, along with LSD,
cocaine, Xaflax and Ecstasy:
Facing multiple charges in that incident is Gabriel E
Mesa, 34, who is listed as the owner of the Northwest
Dearman Street property.
Police believe Mr. Devroomen and Ms. Smith were
growing the marijuana plants in their residence with
assistance from Mr. Mesa.

Supervisor of Elections files for re-election

On Feb. 14, GertrudeWalker filed her intention to run
for her eighth term as St. Lucie County Supervisor of
Elections.
A deputy supervisor for 12 years, Mrs. Walker was
elected as interim supervisor in 1980 after the death of
then-supervisor James P. Brooks. Mrs. Walker then ran
unopposed in the 1980. general election, after receiving
the nomination from the Democratic Party. Re-elected
in 1984, 1988 and 1992, she was unopposed in 1996,
2000 and 2004.
Mrs. Walker received a proclamation from the St.
Lucie county commissioners in 2005 for her outstand-
ing service as supervisor of elections and as president
of the International Association of Clerks, Recorders,
Election Officials and Treasurers.

Man pleads guilty in case involving teen

Robert Hamilton Hasty, 78, pleaded guilty on Feb. 14

The charge, a felony, could net Mr. Hasty 15 years in

on March 28.
The charge stems from an alleged sexual relationship
Mr. Hasty had with a 13-year-old boy, reportedly plying
the boy with gifts in return for sexual favors.
The State Attorneys Office is considering additional
charges, including lewd and lascivious molestation.

Brian adapted well and rec-
ognized it's not only about
arresting bad guys, bitt it's a
quality of life issue. He works
with his church, he loves his
wife. He's just an all-around
good fellow."
When Sgt. Grahowski sub-
mitted his nomination of
Officer Kenny for the award,
he wrote, "He is often greeted
with more attention and
accolades at homeowner
meetings than the fictional
character Norm at Cheers."
In addition to serving on
the police department's
Crash Review Board, Officer
Kenny also volunteers to
serve as an honor guard
member at funerals. When a
fellow officer's teenage
daughter died in an accident,
Officer Kenny drove non-
stop for 12 hours to upstate
New York with two other offi-
cers, to stand as the honor
guard next to the young girl's
casket.
"Imagine a guy who was a
cop at Ground Zero who's
always going to funerals for
.everyone else," said Sgt. Gra-
howski. "He brought that
here and taught our guys.
This year, we've had more
than enough, officer fatalities
in the state. Brian volun-
teered to go to every officer's
funeral. He puts on his dress
whites and stand at attention

next to 'the casket for four to
10 hours. He understands
what police work is all
about."
That police work included
an investigation by Officer
Kenny and his partner, Offi-
cer Trevor Horten, leading to
the arrest .of St. Lucie West
resident Robert Hasty on
sexual' molestation charges.
"They uncovered years of
abuse," said Sgt. Grahowski.
Sgt. Grahowski said Officer
Kenny has also gone through
Crisis Intervention Training.
"Despite all his years of
service, he's willing to take
more than 40 hours of class-
es to better himself," said Sgt.
Grahowski. 'And as a result
of that training, he uncov-
ered a case where a student,
after the Virginia Tech shoot-
ings took place, was plan-
ning a mass murder at a
prom. The student planned
on killing his girlfriend, her
new boyfriend and anyone
else along the way. He avert-
ed a school tragedy."
Officer Kenny also played
a large role in the Bike Rodeo
event held in December at
SuperPlay in St. Lucie West,
where bike safety was taught
and free bike helmets were
given to children.
"I love putting handcuffs
on bad people, but helping
kids? What could be more
rewarding than that?" asked
Officer Kenny.
Sgt. Grahowski said Officer
Kenny also puts many hours
into fundraisers for other
police officers and their fam-
ilies.
Then two years ago, when
the Kenny's youngest daugh-
ter was born with multiple
medical problems, his peers
got together to hold a
fundraiser for him and his
family.
"It wasn't just the police
department that helped.
out," said Officet Kenny. "It
was the whole community.
The fundraiser was organ-
ized by Officer Paul Griffith
and the entire community
embraced us. We looked at
each other and said 'this is
our home.'"
"Last year, it was unbeliev-
able what he and his wife
went through," said Sgt. Gra-
howski. "We rallied to his aid
and he got so choked up. He
said he never thought he'd be
ii? the recipient's seat. And -.
think it inspired him even"
more to be a great communi-
ty police officer."
Despite the demands of
his job, Officer Kenny, who
played in a rock band at one
time, even finds time to play
the drums every Sunday dur-
ing a youth service at his
church.
As for being named Officer
of the Year, Officer Kenny.
had difficulty acknowledging
the accolades being sent in
his direction.
"It's hard to accept that
kind of praise," he said. "I
really enjoy doing what I'm
doing. I work .on a team in
community policing. It was
hard for me to go up and get
the award when I think we
did everything as a team."
That response doesn't sur-
prise Officer Kenny's boss.
"He's as humble as the day
is long," said Sgt. Grahowski.
"He puts his heart out to
every new cop that comes
along. I'm his supervisor, but.
I've learned a lot from him
this year. I can't tell you
enough good about him."

The haves must better
understand the have-nots

Because much violence and instability comes from huge
discrepancies between the ability of different groups to pro-
vide the basics of life, the most powerful groups will be
viewedvwith anger and suspicion.
To reduce the rage, the economically better-off groups
need to understand more clearly and deal with the needs of
those with whom we share the globe.
Because we cannot wall ourselves off from infectious dis-
eases, pollution or terrorist attacks within our own country,
let alone from without, true security will come only from
recognizing interdependence from programs of human
capital investment and from full cooperation in interna-
tional treaties and organizations.
These three goals must be vigorously pursued.

Vick deserves punishment he got

I'm writing in response to the cruel and uncaring letter,
"Prosecuting Michael Vick is ridiculous."
Does this person not know what kind of example Vick is
setting for children and adults alike? People may have once
respected him or at least envied his skill but now they're
disgusted, and rightly so. Dog fighting is a terrible contest
where two dogs are trained to be vicious and are placed in a
pit to fight for entertainment.
This is a gambling sport that often drags in the very mur-
derers and drug dealers that this person is so worried about.
He (or she) also fails to recognize the intelligence of dogs.
A human's intelligence is based loosely upon problem
solving, memory, ability to learn, ability to reason and abili-
ty to communicate. Not only are dogs capable of all of
these, they are also thought to have the intelligence of a 3-
year-old child. Had Michael Vick abused children, made
them fight each other until the other was dead, how would
you feel?
I think you might agree that Vick deserves his sentence, if
not a longer one.

People should answer business phones

Are you as sick as I am of voice prompts,. voice prompts
and more voice prompts when making a simple phone call?
If you're a business that wants -to do business, then
answer your own phone. And, please don't leave us on
music hold forever.

Money shouldn't decid quality of health care

About four weeks ago, I went to the emergency room with
severe abdominal pain. They did the usual tests and told me
to follow up with my doctor.
I don't have medical insurance, like many others, and I
cannot afford to have it and can't afford not to. When I
called my doctor, the (office) refused to make any payment
arrangements with me in order to come for a visit. Turns out
I had to borrow money and paid $73 for a repeat of the tests
and to be told to get another test; what a waste of time and
money.
Three weeks later, I had to follow up (with) the new test
(and was told that the doctor) did want to do a surgery.
Again, that could not be done because I'm not rich and have,
no health insurance. There really aren't any doctors in the
area that accept Medicaid, so I'll have to continue to be in
pain until either I get the money or health insurance. Med-
icaid is only accepted for children, elderly and the preg-
nant, but they are not the only ones who need help. It's
funny (when) the very people who say they care about their
patients won't do anything to help them get a procedure
done, i.e. payment plans.
I know it's not (only) the doctors who are behind this. The
problem is much deeper and something really needs to be
done. /
I know that I'm not the only one this happens to. Many go
without; yet, no one should have the right to decide whose
life should be saved and whose quality of life is more valu-
able especially when it comes to money.

Don't let Republican slogans
sway you from voting Democrat

President Bush and his corporate collaborators have
ruined our country. Our living expenses have skyrocketed:
27 percent (increase) on health premium, insurances, gas,
food, tuitions, drugs and everything else going up by the
day. Foreclosures have reach an all-time high.


Baby (boomers) have to postpone retirement due to their
depleted investments, trillions of dollars of stock market
wealth was lost since Bush took office.
The Clinton $5 trillion surplus was spent in less than two
years, and now we owe almost as much to the Chinese.,
The future of our children and grandchildren is seriously
at risk. Please voice your discontent by voting Democrat
this election. Do not let these Republican political TV ads
scare you their slogans. "They are going to raise your taxes,"
or "you will not be safe" will not work this time.

What will we give soldiers
when they return home?

I am writing to you because I am fearful that when the war
ends and many thousands of sons, daughters, moms, dads,
aunts, uncles, friends and neighbors return home from
serving our country, we will not have enough resources
available for them.
There are millions of dollars spent on aid to illegal immi-
grants in Florida and across the United States. Our
resources are already overburdened. Unemployment is on
the rise and the price of everything has doubled in the last
five years. We are headed for a recession.
I am not against immigration, but the word illegal means
the same in every dictionary. Many of our troops will need
assistance with medical (care), housing and financial aid.
They risked their lives for us. What will we have to offer
them?

Listing qualities to seek in a candidate

What are the qualities by which a candidate may be evalu-
ated to be worthy of your support and vote?
Core concerns: By his speeches, Web site, issues state-
ments, interviews, writings, etc., a candidate should indi-
cate what he really cares about and what values and issues
are most important to him. Or, does he just seem to be say-
ing the right things because winning the office seems to be
what is most important to him? The core concerns of the
candidate jou support should resonate with you.
Completeness: No candidate is perfect, but even if he
agrees with some of your basic concerns, does he differ
much on others?
Character: I hope we have learned that character matters,
particularly in a leader. Are his actions consistent with what
he says and the policies and ideals he promotes?
Courage: Does he have the courage to stand up to ene-
mies and opposition, even among the media, colleagues,
and his own party, to do what is right?
Conviction: Does he really have conviction about what he
espouses? Or, do his views seem to be influenced by the lat-
est polls? Will he take a stand against our enemies?
Commitment: This goes along with courage and convic-
tion. Has he shown that he is willing to persevere, that he is
committed to the cause or causes for which he has spoken?
Consistency: Along with the previous qualities mentioned
goes consistency. Has he been steady in his course? Or, has
recently adopted policies popular with the constituency
whose votes he is trying to win?
Comprehension: Does the candidate have a good under-
standing of what he espouses? We live in a day of cue cards.
Some may say the right things without fully believing or
understanding them.
Capability: Does the candidate have the capacity and
ability to carry out his plans if given the opportunity? Here a
candidate may be evaluated by his experience, including
campaigns for office as well as offices held.
Communicative ability: Part of the reason Ronald Reagan
was and still is regarded as a great president is because he
was known as a great communicator. He got his message
across. Even his enemies understood where he stood.
In my opinion, among Democratic and Republican cur-
rent candidates on our ballots for president, Alan Keyes best
meets the criteria for my support and vote.

A vote for one Clinton will bring both

This is a response to "This 89-year-old is a firm Clinton
supporter."
I'm 88 and I, too, have voted for male presidents and
(have) seen them come and go. I started voting Democrat
and eventually I came to vote Republican. If you bring in
Hillary Clinton, you are also bringing in Mr. Clinton, who
almost destroyed our government and had no respect for
the oval office.-
Hillary Clinton will bring socialism to this country. Just
.watch her and be careful what you do.

Ranter reads between
lines of pro-Clinton support

To "This 89-year-old is a firm Clinton supporter:" Let's see
your letter with my take on it in parentheses.
I have seen male presidents come (no comment) and I've
seen male presidents go some good (Reagan), some bad
(Carter), and evil (Clinton and Clinton).
A mother brings forth a new citizen and gives tender, lov-
ing care to the helpless (It takes a village). She cooks (except
cookies) she sews and cleans (must have missed the blue
dress). She teaches right from wrong (Right as in right wing
conspiracy, wrong as in "these allegations are false!"). She
budgets to stretch every dollar to make ends meet (She will
budget every one of our dollars she can get her hands on for
taxes, social programs that won't work, health care pro-
grams that won't work, etc.). She has the know how. (All she
knows how to do is talk and blame. She has done NOTHING
but run for office.).
Hillary Clinton has been around the block, she knows
where it's at (but she has no experience at doing anything
but window shopping). It's no secret, I'm voting for Hillary
Clinton (God help our country if she gets elected).

Roaming sting operation
could slow down speeders

I have moved from the Northeast to this wonderful para-
dise. I thought I saw all the bad driving in the North, until I
came to Florida. I have traveled in much of our country and
this is the worst. I have seen many rants and raves on this
subject and how to eliminate it.
I, too, have a suggestion. If the larger cities and towns
were to loan one or two of their patrol cars with officers to
the county and/or state police, you could have a sting oper-
ation on individual days and then move to another part of
the county with no notice to anyone. If speeders were
unaware of where the sting might take place, most of them
would be reluctant to drive dangerously. I hope one of the
agencies would adopt this or a similar plan.. Something
should be done and soon.
Editor's note: According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the
agency is required to notify the media through a press release
stating the time, date and place of any planned DUI or safety
checkpoint. However, Florida Highway Patrol is not required
to purchase a paid advertisement or public notice announc-
ing the checkpoint. Their sole responsibility is to notify the
media, who, in turn, can do with the information as they
please. Also, the FHP and the host law enforcement agency
conducting the checkpoint are required to provide an exit
point from the checkpoint by a side or connecting road: Addi-
tionally, the law does not require drivers to pass through the
checkpoint. They are allowed to exit the thoroughfare under
inspection through any available side street.

Republican Party has perfected the spin cycle

The ranter who accused liberals of being phony made me
angry.

Rants & Raves
From page A6
The ranter used the three political tactics that Republican
Party has perfected.
They accuse the Democrats of doing exactly what they,
the Republicans, are doing
Let's look at corruption. Republicans sitting in jail: Randy
Cunningham (California), Bob Ney (Ohio), Jack Abramoff
(lobbyist). Republicans convicted of crimes: Scooter Libby
(White House), Larry Craig (Idaho. Republican leader
indicted, awaiting trial: Tom DeLay (Texas). Florida Republi-
cans with legal and ethical troubles: Bob Allen and Mark
Foley.
Republicans throw out baseless accusations that eat up
news time
It's the old game of asking "When did you stop beating
your wife?" There is no good answer for the falsely accused.
You are either defending yourself or admitting it. (For exam-
ple) President Clinton, when did you stop raping women?
Republicans equate viscous, juvenile and personal
attacks to Democrats pointing out false statements made by
Republicans
For example, when Democrats pointed out former attor-
ney general Roberto Gonzalez made contradictory state-
ments, this is seen by the Republicans as equivalent to Ann
Coulter calling liberals godless. It's not the same thing.
Spin, baseless accusations, misleading statements thrown
out to the media, this is what the Republican Party has per-
fected.

If you can't see you should stay home

To "Ranters should find better things to complain
about:" What a strange, chicken-feed column. Your
thoughts are so scattered and disorganized that I had to
pick the one pellet that stuck in my craw the worst.
It's your driving.
1. You are causing the worst road hazard by driving slow
in the fast lane. Move over. If you can't, then stay home. If
someone needs to drive faster, it is none of your business;
yet, it is your responsibility to get out of the way.
2. If your "vision is not so good anymore" and somehow
you can "see better in the left lane," you should not be driv-
ing.

Be courteous when driving; stay to the right

In your Rants & Raves, there was a gentleman who said
that he drives five miles over the speed limit and if any-
body wants to pass, they can go around him.
The rule of the road is slower traffic will go to the right
and passing traffic will go to the left. And even though he
feels five miles over the speed limit nobody should be
going more than that, it doesn't work that way. There's
always, no matter who it is, someone who always wants to
go faster than you. My rule of thumb always goes this way:
If cars are passing me on the right, I am going too slow
and I should move over. I should be in that lane.
So, for the gentleman, please don't stay out in the left,
slower traffic moves to the right, and always remember,
somebody will be going faster than you. Always, whether
it be an emergency vehicle, police or someone in a hurry.
Please move over and you will do a great favor to all the
drivers.


Daughter upset by
adults' embarrassing questions

My daughter, who is 11 years old, uses a wheelchair.
Millions of adults ask her what happened to her and asks
if she has a "boo-boo."
It's embarrassing and humiliating. They would never ask
an adult that who was in a wheelchair. Please stop and think
about my child's feelings.

Tired of insiders getting to be president
I am responding to "Supporting Hillary, Obama lacks experi-
ence."
Hopefully, the large turnout resulting in (Barack) Obama and
(Mike) Huckabee being victorious in Iowa sends a strong mes-
sage with similar response from the remaining 49 states. Amer-
icans are getting fed up with hearing Obama is not experienced
enough to be president. I suppose the current president had
enough experience, but look at the present status of the country.
An intelligent president would surround himself with (hon-
est, trustworthy) advisors on matters of fighting wars. It has
been a few years since I studied American government. I recall a
system of check and balances where the United States govern-
ment consists of three branches of government: executive, leg-
islative and judicial. They are supposed to work with and help
keep the president in check, as well as presidential advisors to
include military.
The problem with the policies of President Bush are they are
mostly bad because of him or bad advice from his chosen advi-
sors. The problem with Hillary is that she is an insider tied to
lobbyists and big businesses, the very thing Americans are sick
and tired of. Some people are tired of hearing too much or not
enough experience when it comes (African Americans).
Iowa got it right. Thank you Iowans. I am not loyal to any per-
son or party. As an American born in the Tennessee and who
served in the U.S. Air Force for more than 22 years, I have the
right to vote for whomever I desire. If someone takes an offense,
that is his or her problem.

Blames Clinton, Democrats for war in Iraq

This is for the party that left me many years ago, the Democ-
ratic party.
I'm really upset with this party, the way they have of double-
talking. They want to keep making changes. Well, we saw the
changes that were made in the last senatorial and the congres-
sional elections. The changes were nothing. They didn't do (any-
thing).
For Hillary to get up in a debate and to take a slap at the presi-
dent because (he) went to war, that's abominable. How dare
(she)? The reason we went to war is because her husband was a
coward. He wouldn't fight back if they hit him in the face.
That's the reason we are at war, because the Democrats and
Mr. "Greatest President of All Time" William Clinton didn't do
(their jobs).

Don't get too eager to turn
right and don't forget to signal

This is for the ranter who offers a test for some bad driv-
ers. He suggests that when someone is making a left turn
with a green arrow, they are supposed to stay in the left lane
all the way through the turn. He is patently wrong.
When someone is making a left turn on a green arrow into a
two-lane road, he can enter into either lane he cares to, left
or right, obviously he needs to get into the right lane if he


needs to get into a corner lot of some sort.
This ranter needs to know that when you are making a
right turn on red light, you are not permitted to make that
right turn unless all areas are clear on all directions.
This is pretty basic.
He suggests in thinking the opposite and to check with the
sheriff. I advise him to look in the Florida drivers manual for
validation of the points I just made.
Someone who's making right-hand turns in front of peo-
ple turning left with green arrows are posing a big danger on
highways, and this guy is totally wrong.
Editor's note: To clarify: when making a right turn on red,
you must come to a complete stop and yield to traffic that
may be turning left onto the roadway. However, a person
turning left must stay in the left lane and must signal his
intention to get into the right lane and not just immediately
turn into that lane. Too often, drivers just meander over with-
out signaling their intention. Remember, other drivers are not
psychic.
(See Florida statues: 316.075 Traffic control signal
devices and 316.155 When signal required.

Adults need to wrest control from the kids
Somewhere along the way, the balance of power in this
country has shifted from the adults to the children. I know it
seems too simple to be true, but I really think I am onto some-
thing.
Parents no longer spank; they are afraid to go to jail. Ground-
ing is out of the question: The parents would just have to deal
with the kids underfoot all day.
Now there is "time out," which I believe a kid should have
every day anyway regardless of behavior. Recently,-I read an
entire article written by a child psychologist about how to talk
to your child. You shouldn't tell a child, "No, we can't afford it."
For some reason that gives the kid the impression that money
can buy happiness. Instead, you should go into an hour-long
monologue of psycho-babble convincing the child that it's hot
their fault you can't afford it and they are not. to be scarred
because they aren't getting something they want.
Give me a break.
My dad told me many times that we couldn't afford it; I am
not scarred. In fact; I am just fine, thank you. I was raised
believing I had to work for things I wanted and if my dad said,
"no," then he meant no. Usually, he didn't give a reason, but if
we couldn't afford it he would tell me we couldn't afford it. No
biggie.
Ever been shopping right after Christmas? Bet you have seen
a kid having a meltdown in a store because they can't have
some toy, cereal or candy that they want. Seems as if five min-
utes after opening all the gifts they are out having tantrums in
stores.
What gives? You mean buying them everything they want all
(of) the time doesn't really make them happy?
One day, I am going to man up and be brave enough to go to
a tantrum-thrower and scream, "Shut up. You are 5! Who are
you to scream?"
With the current climate of ADD and ADHD maybe, just
maybe, someone will look back and think there is way too
much stimulus for kids and it is possible that a quiet environ,
ment and structure are needed. Kids need a chance to play out-
doors, be imaginative and read a book. They need to learn to
entertain themselves and daydream.
Could I be the only one that is onto this power shift idea?
Let's take the power back and put the kids back where they
belong, not the center of our lives or of the universe. That is too
much pressure. They are kids, not small adults. Adults need to
grow the heck up and regain control.

Gerald M. Barbarito. Follow-
ing the groundbreaking,
Bishop Barbarito was the
main celebrant at a stand-
ing-room only Mass in the
church's temporary build-
ing, which holds 500.
"It was a family celebra-
tion in any way one family
would get together and cele-
brate a birthday or a birth,"
said the Rev. Victor Ulto,
parochial vicar of St.
Bernadette. "At least we have
a physical symbol and know
that dream we had is
becoming a reality."
The land on which St.
Bernadette's temporary,
modular building now sits
was purchased 12 years ago.
However, until the funds for
a permanent church could
be raised, the new congrega-
tion needed a place to wor-
ship.
"The amount of available
space six or seven years ago
was almost non-existent,"
said Father Ulto. "We were
getting desperate for a place
to meet."
IThen, in 2001, the .Rave
Theatre opened in St. Lucie
West.
"That was my last resort,"
said Father Ulto. "We paid
the theatre rent to have Mass
there."
On Sept. 2, 20(11, a small
crowd was expected at that
first Mass. However, the
number of people who came
was so large, a second the-
atre was opened so another
Mass could be held.
"We passed empty pop-
corn bins around in place of
a collection basket," said


Father Ulto.
For the next two years, St.
Bernadette Church rented
space in the Treasure Coast
Christian Church, which
was later sold to Grace
Lutheran Church.
The cordial relationship
between the churches and
temple in St. Lucie West was
evident through the pres-
ence of Pastor Kevin Koenig
of Grace Lutheran Church
and Dr. Charles Hamilton,
former pastor of Treasure,
Coast Christian Church,
who traveled several hours
to be at the groundbreaking.
Also present was the pastor
of All Villages Presbyterian
Church,. George McIlrath.
Rabbi Arthur Rutberg of
Temple Beth El in St. Lucie
West was unable to attend,
but sent his regrets and
called Father Ulto the fol-
lowing day.
Several city dignitaries
were also present, including
Port St. Lucie Mayor Patricia
Christensen, Vice Mayor
Jack Kelly,. councilwoman
Michelle Berger, and Police
Chief John Skinner.
"It was a great affair and
there has been nothing like
this," said Sam Paglione, a
parishioner of St.
Bernadette's who was
instrumental in inviting the
dignataries. "It was an out-
standing groundbreaking.
Everyone thanked us. They
couldn't have been more
pleasant, and at the same
time, it was such a joy."
Father Ulto hopes the new
church, which is expected to
hold 1,200 people and will
include a "family life center"
with meeting rooms, offices
and a social hall, will be
completed in two years.
"We'll be submitting soon
to the city our plans for the
church and family life cen-
ter. When we get the per-
mits, we will begin construc-
tion," he said. "We've tried to
design a church that, archi-
tecturally, Bernadette .her-
self would recognize. When
finished, it will look as if it's
been here a long time."
The date of the ceremoni-
al groundbreaking was no
accident. One hundred fifty
years ago to the day, on the
morning of Feb. 11, 1858,
Bernadette Soubirous, her
sister and a friend traveled
to Massabielle, a part of
Lourdes, France, to gather

firewood. As Bernadette
removed her shoes and
stockings before wading
through the river, she felt a
breeze, looked up at a grotto
in the rocks and, as-she-later-
reported, saw a "beautiful
lady," whom Catholics
believe was Mary, the moth-
er of Jesus.
Bernadette is believed to
have seen Mary, who even-
tually spoke to her, a total of
18 times. Bernadette told
others that Mary spoke
about the importance of
prayer and penance.
Today, the site of the
apparitions in Lourdes
attracts millions of visitors.
Bernadette was canonized
by the Roman Catholic
Church in 1933.
The total cost of St.
Bernadette's permanent
church on Northwest Cali-
fornia Boulevard in St. Lucie
West is approximately $9
million.
"Through the generosity
of the parish, we've raised
approximately 45 percent of
the total -cost," -saidTather


Ulto. "The Diocese will lend
us the balance."
Today, less than seven
years after the first Mass at
the Rave Theatre, St.
Bernadette's has grown to a
parish of 2,000 families. The
church prides itself on its
devotion to stewardship,
and currently has over 30
active ministries. Those
ministries include Project
Mother Teresa, which col-
lects non-perishable foods
once a month from parish-
ioners and distributes it to
area food banks;
Bernadette's Angels, which
lends support to those who
are sick or housebound;
Project Children's Literacy,
which provides supplemen-
tal reading for preschoolers
through kindergarten; and
the St. Vincent de Paul Soci-
ety, which operates a thrift
store and food pantry on
Biltmore Avenue in the city.
Many of those attending
the groundbreaking have
been parishioners since the
church's first Mass at the
Rave Theatre, and were

Strategies canhelp smokers quit


Sast week, I wrote about
making the decision to
stop smoking. This
week, I'll address getting
medication and using it
correctly and preparing for
relapses and difficult
situations.

Medications
that can help
'There are several medica-
tion approved by the Food
ahd Drug Administration to
help smokers quit. Most
help to mange withdrawal
symptoms and urges with
small amount of nicotine;
ohe of them, bupropion, is
sometimes used to fight
depression and may help
reduce nicotine cravings.
; According to the National
Institutes of Health, using
an aid to help quit could as
nmuch as double your
chances of being successful.
:Remember, even if these
products are available over-
the-counter, without a pre-
scription, they are powerful
ahd could have-side effects.
TPlk to your doctor, espe-
cially if you are, younger
tmian 18, are pregnant or
breastfeeding or have a
niedical condition. Under a
doctor's supervision, you
may be able to use these
products safely, without.side
effects.
Following is a list of nico-
ti ne replacement products.
Over the counter:
Gum, sold as Nicorette.
Lozenges, sold as Com-
numit.

It's a big step to stop
smoking, but that's only the
beginning. The harder battle
is staying smoke-free for the
long haul.

Staying smoke-free
after you quit
Here are some strategies
and plans, again taken from
QuitAssist, to help you
through some rough patch-
es.,
According to the Centers
for Diseases Control and
Prevention, your risk of
relapse is greatest during
*the first three months, after
quitting. Have a plan in
place to cope with being
around other smokers or in
other difficult situations.
You know what your triggers
are; plan for how you'll han-
dle them ahead of time.
If you smoke to handle
stress, you need a, replace-
ment coping skill. Exercise
is a great stress reliever and
mood elevator. You might
try yoga or tai chi or go for a
walk or run.
Don't beat yourself up if
you slip. Don't give up. Try to
figure out what happened to

thought Katie was too old to go this year.
But the day before the dance, Pat Keller,
Katie's grandmother, called Ms. Conn and
explained that Katie, who is autistic, really
looks forward to the dance.
"Of course, I couldn't say 'no,' said Ms.
Conn. "I had tears in my eyes listening to
her grandmother."
Katie's mother, Lori Shattuck, decided to
make the night even more special for her
husband and daughter.
"When we thought Katie couldn't go, I
was going to decorate our living room and
download the songs they used to dance
to," said Mrs. Shattuck. "But then my mom
called, and they made an exception."
Before the dance, Mrs. Shattuck
dropped Katie .off at her grandmother's
house, where Katie got dressed.
"Ralph just thought we were going out
for Valentine's Day. We headed over to my
mother's, and Katie walked out all dressed
up, and then I gave them both a card
telling them they were going to the father-
daughter dance. They were both really
surprised and excited,"' she said.


Ms. Conn said 84 girls came to the
dance this year with their fathers. A disc
jockey was supplied by Audio Excitement
and a face .painter from Masquerade
Expressions was there as well.
"The face painter loved doing it so
much, she said she hopes they ask her
next year," said Ms. Conn.
Each year, a photographer takes pic-
tures of the girls with their dads, and the
fathers and daughters then take the photo
and make something together. This year,
Mr. Shattuck and Katie made a frame for
the picture.
Mr. Shattuck said his favorite part of the
evening was one very special dance.
"They played 'Butterfly Kisses,' and we
danced to that. I used to dance to that
with her when she was a baby. I could
have gone and done that one dance and
left, and it would have been worth it," he
said.
Katie might agree. Her mother said she
was still "glowing" the day after the dance.
"She kept saying, 'We went on a date last
night, Daddy,'" said Mrs. Shattuck.

Azalea blooms are a sure sign of spring IR|


WA7ith the Florida
spring season in
the air, I would to
write about a very seasonal
plant known as the azalea.
These colorful plants are
always a sure sign of spring
when they burst into full
color. Even though our
spring is still a few weeks
away, now is the time to
start planning where you
'want to show off these
heavy bloomers.
You should consider a
location where the plants
will only receive filtered
light. They do not like full
'direct sun all day. An area
under the eaves of your
house or that receives
filtered sun through pine
trees would be an excellent
location.
SIf you want your plants to
'live a long and healthy life,
proper soil is the key.
Azaleas like a soil that is
acidic with a ph of around
5.5. Generally, soil that is
exposed to pine needles will
be naturally acidic in nature
and when mixed with a
good organic soil, you have
an excellent medium to-giVe-
,your plants a good start.
You should also be sure
your plants are in a well-
drained area so they won't
sit in water for long periods.
Preparing a raised bed is the


;*1

best assurance for good
drainage.
Once the soil is properly
prepared, you want to apply
a slow-release fertilizer
directly to the soil. Osmo-
cote for acid loving plants is
an excellent choice.
Once you have your
azaleas planted and estab-
lished, the rest is easy. The
beauty of these plants is
that they require very little
maintenance. They are not


heavy feeders and thus do
not need to be fertilized on
a regular basis. The best
time for feeding is after they
have finished their bloom
cycle in the spring. Always
use a slow-release fertilizer
and do not let the fertilizer
come in direct contact with
the roots.
OK, you've got your plants


established, fertilized and
your soil is perfect so what's
next? The next step is to
ensure that your plants
bloom year after year.
One of the best ways to do
this is by proper pruning.
You always want to prune
and shape your plants right
after they have finished
blooming. Don't wait until
the height of summer to do
this or you risk losing
flowers next season.
Even though azaleas have
a fairly short bloom cycle,
the plants stay healthy and
green all year long. Because
of this they are considered
evergreens. This is what
makes them such a desir-
able choice for a year-round
plant..
To summarize, azaleas are
heavy bloomers, they are
easy to take of and they do
very well in both winter cold
and hot summers, provided
they are in filtered sunlight.

SHELLEY KOPPEL
Treasure Coast Scene

Teen pianist,
composer will visit
Lyric Theatre Feb. 29
Pianist and composer
Conrad Tao is just 13, but he
speaks of "Seven," the
sonata he wrote at 10, as
"nostalgia."
He will perform his own
work, as well as pieces by
Corigliano, Rachmaninoff,
Chopin and Liszt, in a
concert on Friday, Feb. 29,
at the Lyric Theatre,
sponsored by the Treasure
Coast Concert Association.
He spoke by phone from
his home in NewYork,
where he is home-schooled
and also studies at the
Juilliard School.
"My earliest memories of
music are of me playing,"
he said. "They say-I crawled
up onto the bench at one-
and-a-half (years old) and
plucked out tunes. Whenev-
er I saw a piano, I'd climb
up, even though my hands
were very small."
Conrad began formal
piano lessons at 3.5 years
old and began studying
composition at age 5.
"The first thing I ever
played was "Mary had a
Little Lamb," he said. "We
had children's tapes and I
plunked it out. That's the
reason I kept enjoying it. I
started by ear, not by
learning how to read
music."
The young man starts his
day by practicing for several
hours and then he does
several hours of schoolwork
and violin practice, since he
also plays that instrument.
In the evening, he practices
the piano again. He does
find,time to mix with
friends, both musical and
non-musical and said that
he doesn't practice as much
as others he knows because
he lacks concentration.
(That's hard to believe, with
the schedule he has.)
He is pleased with the
program for the Lyric
concert, saying he tries to
make a program a mix of
fast and slow works. The
Corigliano begins with only
the left hand playing, and,
he finds that trying to make
it sound as if both hands
were involved is the
challenge and the fun.

Luncheon to feature


noted English author


BY SHELLEY KOPPEL
Entertainment writer
Writer Barbara Taylor
Bradford has authored
best-selling books that
have sold more than 80
million copies in 40 :
languages and have been
made into 15 television
mini series.
Her own life story reads
like one of her novels.
"My mother, Freda
Taylor, loved furniture
and paintings and
antiques, and she took
me around to stately
homes and pointed out a
Constable or a Gainsbor-
ough or Hepplewhite,"
said the author. "She
opened my eyes. She ,
encouraged my reading
and a love for beautiful
things."
The young Barbara
thought this was normal
for a child growing up in
the northern English city
of Leeds, and it wasn't
until she was a famous
author that her biogra-
pher, Piers Dudgeon,
discovered that Freda
Taylor was the illegitimate
daughter of the Marquess
of Ripon, a member of the
English aristocracy. It was
a twist worthy of one of
Barbara Taylor Bradford's
own books
"It was extraordinary,"
she said of learning.her
mother's hidden heritage.
"I'm convinced "she


knew about it. I think she
felt that I deserved what
she had been denied. I
was an only child, as my
brother had died as a
baby, and she focused all
of her attention on me."
Mrs. Bradford began
her career as a typist for
the Yorkshire Evening
Post at 15 and worked her
way up to reporter.
By 18, she was the
women's page editor, and
she moved to London.
Her days in journalism
helped prepare her for
her future career.
"I wanted to be a hard-
bitten reporter with a
dirty trench coat," said
Mrs. Bradford. "I was
never hard-bitten, but I
did have a dirty trench
coat. I was always very
lucky and got good jobs
and earned the respect
quickly of men. There
were not a lot of women
(in newspapers) 50 years
ago. I learned that you
have to meet a deadline,
and I've never missed
one. It taught me to pay
attention to facts and
gave me a great deal of
respect for research. I
only trust myself to get
the facts right.
"It taught me about
people. You can't be a
novelist without having
insight into what makes
people tick. You learn
through meeting a lot of
people in difficult

Your success depends on the choices you make.
In order for new ideas to grow, outdated ones
must be released. Your main efforts in the next
two or three weeks should be directed in sorting
out the old from the new and figuring out what
you truly want. Then ask for a blessing from the

Taurus-April 20-May 20
State your case and cause and let others know what
you want and when. Then give them time to per-
form and help you as requested. Whether it is with
family, co-workers or friends, working together as a
team is so important When you ,eel stress and
unsafe, it is usually caused by trying to go it alone
and overloading yourself. When you ask for help,
you will get much more done.
Gemini-May 21-June 21
At the last minute, when it seems thatthings are not
going to work out, they usually do. Why? Because,
you have a guardian angel watching over you. Your
own spirit knows what you want. For this spiritual
side to work, you must listen to your inner guidance,
act on the positive signs and then be patient Let the
universe work for you and you will pro per.
Cancer-June 22-July 22
Keep visualizing what you want and refuse to give
up or get stuck or sidetracked on less important
things. The key is to write down your ideas when
they pop into the mind. This is like giving birth to an
"idea child." Then feed, protect it and encourage it to


grow. One good idea acted upon could set you up
for life. You have many. Why not create a few this
year?
Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
'The key now that you are finding short-range suc-
".s, is to set medium-range ,goals to work
Lu, 9rd. Then, set yearly and long-range goals. All
suc. ssful people do this. You are a proven win-
ner. Yo-'should do it, too. This plan will keep you
moving forward with strong, focused energy. You
know what you want. Now go for it with gusto
and win.
Virgo-Aug.23-Sept 22
The moon in Virgo givce- your natural, strong heart
energy an even great& boost. Use it to do some-
thing nice for yourself. You are always doing for
others. Let your friends help you a little. It's what
they are for. Watch your ups and downs. Increase
action when you feel a high. Slow down when the
energy is waning. This will keep moving you for-
ward in your calling.

PORT ST. LUCIE -
Charm and setting may be
just two-thirds of the
equation, but when you
throw good food and
friendly service into the
mix, you've got more than
enough elements to make
any meal a special occasion
at Paisano's gourmet pizza
trattoria in Port St. Lucie.
Opened last July in The
Promenade across the canal


from Rivergate Park,
Paisano's offers an escape
from the ordinary, with its
Mediterranean architecture,
water views and patio
dining terrace caressed by
balmy breezes. All of those
ingredients combine to
create the perfect setting for
enjoying the gourmet pizza
and homemade Italian
cuisine prepared by co-
owners Chuck Lamm and
Joe Vernillo.
Both put a strong
emphasis on nutrition and

freshness.
"The biggest point is that
we have a nutritional
value," Mr. Lamm said. "We
only cook in olive oil, and I
use carrots to sweeten the
pasta sauce, which is
cooked in a pressure cooker
to preserve all the nutri-
ents."
' The sauce is indeed
special, a pure and simple
blend of tomatoes and
savory spices that's served
atop a variety of pastas and
gracing the exquisite
eggplant Parmesan and
other Italian dishes,
But it's the delightfully
thin and crispy pizza that
draws patrons back time
and again to try the more
than two dozen varieties.
Paisano's offers such
exotic combinations as
rosemary chicken (chicken,
sweet onions, olive oil,
rosemary and mozzarella in
a white wine sauce); spicy
buffalo shrimp (shrimp and
onions in a creamy buffalo
sauce, topped with moz-
zarella cheese); and the
Florentine (spinach,
artichokes, roasted peppers,
mushrooms, sweet onions,
green olives, sun-dried
tomatoes and olive oil,
sprinkled with gorgonzola
and mozzarella cheeses).
Sound tempting? Well,
we're just getting started,
and you've got more than 20
others to try. Many are like
taking a world tour via your
pizza, such as the Mexican
Rio (Spanish sausage,
ground beef, peppers,
onion and cilantro),
Hawaiian (ham, pineapple,
teriyaki BBQ sauce) and
Cajun shrimp (shrimp,
garlic, onions, Cajun sauce
and mozzarella).
Although the pizza flavors
:may sound too extravagant
to be authentic, server
Bianca Bayrak, who recendy
moved to Port St. Lucie
from Italy, says many of the

"I try to think of how
difficult it is," he said. "That
makes it more impressive."
Conrad was born in
Urbana, Ill., to Chinese
immigrants who came to
the United States to study at
Princeton University. His
mother is a research
scientist at Columbia, and
his father is an engineer.
His older sister attends
Columbia, and she is
focusing on economics.
He's looking forward to
the trip to Florida, where he


has come to perform .
before, and he has family
outside of Tampa. He only
worries about the weather
up north.
"Every time I travel on a
flight to Florida, one leg or
the other is delayed," he
said.
Let's hope it doesn't
happen this time.
Theatre announces

The Lyric Theatre has


announced several addi-
tions to its schedule.

with great food and cookies


Hello, smart shoppers!
Hope you had a good
week. February is
Black History Month and
before the month is gone, I
must share some delicious
recipes. Two recipes come
with a story and one actually
comes from Africa. All are
delicious!
Enjoy. See you next week. '
To your health: Black-eyed
peas or beans can cause gas
in some. Add a half-teaspoon
ofbaking soda near the end of
cooking. Goodbye gas!

regular and low fat
Bessie Stuart, a black friend
of mine, who has since gone
to be with the Lord, gave me
her family recipe. Served over
rice with a side of corn bread,
it is rib sticking and wonder-
ful. Using ham instead of
pork or bacon makes it low
fat.

Place in pot, cover with

heat and cook for two

for one hour.
Note: You can let peas soak
in the pot overnight. This
method removes most of the

FROGMORE STEW
(NIB)
Serves eight
We enjoyed Frogmore Stew
at my son, Bill's home in
South Carolina and shortly
after that I found a recipe in a
magazine.
Since the recipe was not as
good as Bill's, I decided to call
him knowing I would also get
a bit of history.
How about that name? I
mentioned it to my mom
and told her the ingredients
and she asked quizzically,
"There are no frogs in it?"
It seems, Frogmore is a
town located in the low
country, just outside of
Beaufort, S.C. Apparently it


was there the stew was
created by slaves. Years ago it
was considered "peasant
food." Crabs were added
when available.
This is great for a crowd.
You can cut the recipe in half
if you choose, using 2-
tablespoons seafood boil, 1/2
teaspoon each Tabasco and
Worcestershire sauce and 4-
1/2 teaspoons salt. The rest is
easy to divide.
6 quarts of water
1/4 cup seafood boil
(found in supermarket in
spice section)
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire
sauce
3 tablespoon salt*
2 cloves garlic, peeled
4 extra-large onions,
peeled and halved

potatoes, whole and

baked ziti to chicken
Marsala, veal Parmesan
and linguini with clam
sauce or mussels.
To get your appetite
going, there are several
salads and numerous
appetizers to choose from.
Of particular note are the
sensational stuffed mush-
rooms (filled with lump
crabmeat and seasonings

sauce) and the stuffed
eggplant (filled with a
variety of cheeses and sun-
dried tomatoes and
sprinkled with mozzarella).
Of course the Caprese

glaze) always makes a great
start to any Italian meal.

coffee and espresso, the

variety of white and red
wines, and both domestic
and imported beers. The
latter are served in tall,
frosty glasses and include

From page B1
Mrs. Bradford met her
husband Bob, an American
film producer, through a
mutual friend, and they
were married in 1963. Mr.
Bradford has shepherded
the productions of her
books into mini-series and
movies including "A
Woman of Substance,"
"Voices of the Heart," "Act
of Will" and "A Secret
Affair."
Mr. Bradford manages
his wife's career, including
contracts, public relations
and even the Web site.
"We're both extremely
strong characters," she
said. "I'm a bit bossy. He
calls me Napoleon or
Margaret Thatcher. He's
very organized. I call him
Bismarck. We're each
organized in our different
ways and opinionated, but
we get along very well."
In June 2007, Mrs.
Bradford was given an
Order of the British Empire
for her contributions to
literature, and she was
invited to Buckingham
Palace to see the queen.
"She's very-sweet and
pretty," said Mrs. Bradford.
"She's got that pink skin
and the bluest eyes."
The experience was an
interesting one.
"They take away your
handbag, not because of a
gun, but because you
might drop it when you get
the medal and (have)
everything fall out. They
put a hook or safety pin on
your jacket, and the queen
hangs the medal from it.
Imagine if she had to pin it
on you! She stands on a
dais, so if she has to pin a
medal on a 6-foot-9-inch
guardsman, she's taller
than everyone."
"The queen said that she


understood that I had
written a lot of books, and
we both smiled," said Mrs.
Bradford. "The queen's
eyes twinkled when I
mentioned that I'd used
British history the
queen's history-- in some
of my works. I told Her
Majesty that it was a great
honor that I would treasure
always. The queen shook
my hand, I curtseyed as I
receded, and it was over."
Mrs. Bradford is active in
charity work and her special
causes include the Police
Athletic League in NewYork,
where she lives.
The organization is raising
money to open after-school
centers for underprivileged
children that are equipped
with computers to help
build skills. She also serves
on the board of an English
charity, Parents and Abduct-
ed Children Together, which
tries to find missing chil-
dren.
"Both are close to my
heart," she said. "Anything
is that has is anything to do
with children."
At the end of the inter-
view, Mrs. Bradford asked
me if I'd like an inscribed
copy of her latest book, 'The
Heir,' published in 2007, and
told me to come up to her at
the luncheon.
"Tell them Barbara has
something for you," she said
'in a crisp English accent.
"I'm putting it in my diary."
It'll be a bit like meeting
the Queen.
Barbara Taylor Bradford
appears at the fifth annual
author's luncheon, spon-
sored by the Friends of the
Blake Library, on March 11
at Harbour Ridge Yacht and
Country Club in Palm City.
Tickets for the 11:30 a.m.
event are $75. Proceeds
support fiee community and
library programs. Call (772)

of February 22nd March 17, 2008; however, the level of
chlorination will remain the same.
The temporary conditions will not be harmful to the
general public. However, persons on kidney dialysis
should consult their physician for special instructions con-
cerning this matter.
Those who have tropical fish or aquatic animals should
contact local tropical fish stores for advice and then take
appropriate action to properly treat water treated before it
is added to aquariums.
Flushing of fire hydrants during this period may cause
the water to become cloudy and discolored. This will also
be a temporary condition and should not last more than a
few hours.

Cruise around Tahitian paradise the Gauguin way


f you need to relax and
want complete rest,
this is the trip for you.
We left Orlando on a
Friday afternoon and
spent the night in Los
Angeles. The next day we
flew to Tahiti, where the
air is fresh and the people
qre as accommodating as
anyone could be.
- We boarded Radisson's
M/V Paul Gauguin Cruise
Ship and were put into
another world. We were
waited on as if we were the
only two people on board.
All cabins have their own
tiki statue to watch over
you. Ours did its job well.
Radisson Seven Seas
Cruise Lines doesn't want
you to feel pressured,
therefore, there's no
tipping, and most of your
drinks are included in the
fare. We found that there
were so many parties that
we never had to buy a'
drink.
The food was great and
the service was like
nothing we have had
before. The waiters and
bar staff knew your name
after the first time they
met you, and they made
you feel completely at
home.
Even the dress code in
Tahiti is relaxed. A pair of
slacks and nice shirt was
the norm for men and a
summer dress or slacks

this, we sailed into Cook's

anchored for our view and
tours of Moorea. This is
where you will probably
get your Tahitian black
pearls. I thought I would
not buy one, but to my
great pleasure my hus-
band did get me one. And,
a grateful customer
bought me a black pearl
bracelet. So I have many
special memories to hold
in my heart of this won-
derful paradise.
Before flying you home,
Radisson puts you up in a
hotel in Papeete for the
afternoon. Your flight is


around 10 p.m. When you,
leave the ship, a compli-
mentary tour and lunch
are available for those who
wish to take it and then
some rest by the pool or in
your room is in order.
When you are looking for
a special trip that will stay
with you forever, try
traveling to paradise.

Is the flood of Noah's time history or myth?


A after Adam, Eve, and
their three sons, Cain,
bel, and Seth, the
next prominent figure in the
Bible is Noah.
People lived for a long,
long time back then. Adam
lived to be 930 years old.
According to the Bible, that
was not unusual. As a result,
there was a veritable
population explosion.
Genesis 6:1 says, "When
men began to increase in
numbers on the earth,
daughters were born to
them."
Genesis 6:2, a very strange
passage, tells us, "The sons
of God saw that the daugh-
ters of men were beautiful
and they married any of
them they chose."
Some Bible scholars think
that the "sons of God" were
heavenly beings, angels who
intermarried with human
women. To answer that
question, let's look at
Matthew 22:30, "At the
resurrection, people will
neither marry nor be given
in marriage, they will be like
the angels in heaven." So,
we clearly see in this verse,
that angels do not marry or
reproduce.
Others have speculated


that the "sons of God" were
aliens, extraterrestrial from
another planet! The Bible,
.however, in no way sup-
ports this view nor the
existence of aliens.
Some scholars believe
that the "sons of God"
referred to wayward descen-
dants of Seth. They believe
that these descendants of
Seth married the "daughters
of men," who were actually
the descendants of evil
Cain.
This union, whatever it
was, resulted in "Nephilim,"
giants who were probably
nine to 10 feet tall!
Genesis 6:5 tells us, "The
Lord saw how great man's
wickedness on the earth
had become, and that every
inclination of the thoughts
of his heart was only evil all
the time." Earth was no
longer the perfect paradise
that God created. Mankind
quickly forgot about God.
Incredibly, only one man,
Noah, still worshiped God.
Because of his faithfulness
and obedience, God saved
him and his family from a
vast flood that destroyed all
living things on the earth.
God told Noah to build a
huge ark as a refuge for


DAVID GOODE

himself and his family
during the coming cata-
strophic flood. Noah
followed God's command,
and built the ark exactly as
God had described it to
him. Six hundred year old
Noah and his family entered
the ark, along with pairs of
every kind of animal and
fowl. God granted a seven-
day period of grace to invite
unbelievers to enter the ark,
but all refused.
Then the earth was
pounded with a great flood
and the subterranean
waters burst forth for 40
days and nights. The roaring
floodwaters lifted the ark
high above the highest

mountain peaks. All living
things upon the earth
perished.
After 150 days, the
floodwaters receded. Noah
and his family released the
animals, left the ark, and
offered sacrifices to the
Lord.
Bible critics maintain that
the flood of Noah's day was
only a myth, a legend, but
the physical evidence of a
worldwide flood abounds.,
Take a drive through the
mountains, and you will see
sedimentary strata where
road builders have cut and
shaped it. Looking much
like a layer cake, these strata
were produced by sediment,
gravel, sand, and clay
deposited by the worldwide
flood.
Also contained in the
strata are billions of fossils
of plants and animals that
died suddenly. They were
rapidly buried and then
compacted under tons of ,
additional sediment.
The flood, as it rose, first
covered and buried the
slowest moving species and
finally the faster moving
ones. Some species, such as
birds, were able to go to the
highest mountains. This
explains why fossils con-
taining bird skeletons are
rarely found, even in the
upper strata layers.
Humans used their
cognitive ability (reasoning)
to reach mountain peaks in
an effort to avoid the
floodwaters. This is why
human remains also rarely,;
if ever, are found in the
geologic formations known.
as sedimentary strata.
As a result of this global
flood, flood stories have
been handed down from
.generation to generation,
- among all tribes and races
of the world.
NoaWhs ark was an Old
Testament example of
Christ, our ark of safety. Step
into the ark today and be
safe in our troubled. times.

Boys' hoops take center

stage on Treasure Coast


Titans advance
to Region 4-5A
quarterfinals
before losing to
Martin County
BY JOHN MACDONALD
Sports writer
While the weather might
be chilly at times, the boys'
basketball playoffs have
been heating up, with sever-
al area teams looking to
shine at regionals.
Several squads have had
outstanding seasons thus
far, putting the Treasure
Coast in the running to pos-
sibly house a state champi-
on.


Already looking like one
of the elite teams in Florida
is Martin County. The Tigers
rampaged through the regu-
lar season with just one loss
- an 87-73 setback to W.T.
Dwyer on Dec. 18. Martin
County shook off the set-
back and defeated another
of the area's best, Sebastian
River, in its next contest and
never looked back.
Carrying a No. 3 ranking
in 5A into the district tour-
nament, the Tigers dis-
patched Coral Glades 73-47
in the 14-5A semifinal to set
up a rematch with Dwyer
for the championship.
Making it to the title game
for the first time since 2003,
Martin County made the
most of the opportunity.
With several of its star play-


ers, as well as its key
reserves, making significant
contributions, the Tigers
won a niip-and-tuck affair,
73-69 its first crown since
2002.
"I didn't realize that was
the year," Martin County
head coach Andre McIntyre
said. "It's a compliment for
our boys.
"It was one of our goals to
be district champs and we
achieved that. The kids
worked hard all season to
reach that point, but it's not
where we want to stop.
"We want to be regional
champs."
Martin County took a step
closer to that goal with a
thrilling 54-50 win over

Hoops
From page C1
Treasure Coast in the Region
4-5A quarterfinal. With the
Titans (17-11) holding a slim
43-41 lead in the final sec-
onds, Ridge Graham hit a
runner in the lane to tie the
score and send it to overtime.
In the extra session, the
teams continued to
exchange leads. The Tigers
(24-1) took a 52-47 advan-
tage with 1:35 left, but Josh
Jones hit a long range 3-
pointer to cut the lead to two.
After a Tiger turnover, Jones
had a chance to tie it or put
his team ahead, but couldn't
convert.
Martin County's Quamain
Foreman hit two free throws
to seal the win for the Tigers.
"It's been a good ride,"
McIntyre said. "I'm enjoying
watching these young men
get better and better."
Making the same case is
Sebastian River's Mark.
Adams. The Sharks have
steadily improved in the
three seasons since Adams
took over the program, cul-
minating in this year's run to
a district title.
Sebastian River received a
balanced effort in its 60-56
win over Bayside in the 13-5A
semifinals. Keith Matthews
scored 13 points and pulled
down eight rebounds while
William Wilson added 13
points of his own to go along
with five assists.
In the championship,
Sebastian River took on the
aforementioned Treasure
Coast. The Titans already had
made history this season,
going from a -dismal 4-18
record in its inaugural cam-
paign to being mentioned in
the same breath as the highly
regarded area powerhouses.
In fact, Treasure Coast
played both Martin County
and Sebastian River tough
this season. The Titans
pushed Martin County to the
brink before losing by one
point on Dec. 4.
Treasure Coast split the
season series with Sebastian,
taking a 47-46 win on a last
second shot early on in the
campaign before falling to
Sebastian 10 days later.


"I knew Treasure Coast had
a very good basketball team,"
Adams said.
The Titans entered their
matchup with Sebastian on a
high note, easily defeating
Satellite 62-43 in the semifi-
nals. The finale was charac-
terized by several swings in
momentum. After Treasure
Coast took a 9-8 lead after
the first quarter, Sebastian
River responded with a 15-5
second quarter to lead by
nine at halftime.
Treasure Coast came out
strong in the second half,
outscoring the Sharks 12-4 in.
the third quarter to pull with-
in one. However, in the end
the Sharks' defense proved to
be the deciding factor, as
Sebastian River held the
Titans to six fourth-quarter
points while the Sharks
poured in 16.
The championship was the
first in the program's history,
while its 21 wins set a school
record.
In the victory, the Sharks
were once again led by
Matthews and Wilson.
Matthews recorded a dou-
ble-double with 12 points
and 10 rebounds, while Wil-
son chipped in 12 of his own
to go along with four assists.
"William Wilson came up
big for us," Adams said. "He's
been really good at the end of
the season defensively for us.
"What has impressed me
the most has been his poise
and his confidence. He's
doing a great job running the
team out there."
Adams was pleased with
his team's momentum going
into the regional playoffs.
"We're peaking at the right
time," Adams said. "We've
won eight games in a row,
including the school's first
win over Vero Beach."
Unfortunately, W.T. Dwyer
found a way to slow the
Sharks' progress, ironically
by speeding up the tempo of
the game.
"We got stuck playing their
game," Adams said. "We
knew going in that Dwyer
played a fast, wide-open
style of play."
Late in the game, Sebast-
ian was down by 11, but cut it
to three with just over two
minutes left in regulation.


The Titans already had made history this
season, going from a dismal 4-18 record in its
inaugural campaign to being mentioned in
the same breath as the highly regarded area
powerhouses.


"We pressed them and I
think it caught them by sur-
prise," Adams said. "They
had to slow it down."
However, Sebastian (21-7)
wasn't able to make that final
push and lost 59-50.
"It went from three to nine
before I could stand up,"
Adams said. "We had 13
missed free throws. Those
are tough stats to overcome."
The Indians were another
team looking to achieve
postseason glory.
Unfortunately, senior
point guard Jim Leffew and
the rest of the Indians' sea-
son came to an end with a
51-47 loss to Edgewater in
the Region 2-6A quarterfinal.
Perhaps the most intrigu-
ing team still left playing is
John Carroll. Led by first-year
coach Rick Slone, the Rams
(13-13) head man had his
team playing well after an 0-
4 start. In its District 9-3A
semifinal matchup with West
Shore, John Carroll got 12
points and eight boards from
Jon Robert Rea to pull out the
win, 45-38.
In the championship
game, A.J. Alexander poured
in 28 points to lead the Rams,
but it wasn't enough as the
team fell by 10 to Melbourne
Central Catholic.


"We played well," Slone
said. "We didn't play as well
as we had during certain


stretches of the season.
"We lost our second-lead-
ing scorer, Luke Walters, in
the first two minutes of the
first district game to a high
ankle sprain.
"You have to be successful
with whatever you have left
to play with."
Despite the loss, the Rams
advanced to the next round
against Frostproof, looking
to win its first regional play-


off game since 1972.
With Walters in the line-
up, scoring a game-high 22
points, John Carroll got
over the hump in a big way
- thawing out Frostproof
to the tune of a 70-58 win.
"We played one of our
best, if not the best, games
of the year," Slone said. "We
shot over 60 perfect from
the field for the game."

Pompano bite best on


the incoming tide


he pompanos may
be confused by the
alternating cool and
warm weather, but they
are definitely here.
Anglers fishing from the
bridges have had a mixed
season thus far. But stop
and think, was the bite
on the incoming or
outgoing water? Was it
early or later in the day?
Were you fishing on the
bottom or in the column?
Answer these questions
and you will find some
common answers to
catch fish.
From the bridge my past
tells me that it is the
incoming.water, fishing
the column from bottom
up to brings the best
results.
Time is not the issue, it is
the water.
Vertical jigging with
Doc's Goofy Jigs, Gulf
Stream Red Red Fish jigs
or that old standby
Nylure, were each pro-
ductive. The only thing I
never tried was a second
rod with sand fleas from
the bridge. i
And why not?
I have heard reports
from the Indian and St.
Lucie rivers all the way to
North Fork that anglers
like the Nylures from the
boat.
They trim the tails to
the hook and use a piece
of shrimp to catch their
nose. On the flats, anglers
will put out that second
rod with sand fleas and
that produces results.
The one thing that
always comes up is that
incoming tide, not time of
day that brings the best


HENRY CAIMATTO
Fishing columnist

catch.
Now just get your tide
charts arid plan your
outing.
From the surf, the blue
fish bite is on. Spoons,
top water and cut baits
have all put fish on the
sand. These fish are in the
three-to five-pound class
and make excellent table
fare. Don't believe what
you have heard, these fish
feed on mullet, not
bunker. The whiting
come in after the sun has
- been up and warms the
edge. A little piece of
shrimp on a No. 4 long
shank hook and a short
pitch to that first trough
will get a bucket full.
Long casters going for
pompano, should look
north in the Vero cove or
down to Frederick
Douglass Beach to
locations with limits of
fish or that first trough
mixed in with the whiting
for the short cast.
The river anglers are
starting a little deeper,
three-to four-feet is the


start. Cast to both the
shallow and deep water for
the zone, the fish are
holding in.
You can also find lots of
slot trout on both shrimp
and sinking baits, but not
much on top water. Mid-
morning is the best time for
that bite, but if you want
red fish you still need to be
there early. The doa shrimp,
gulp baits and the gold
spoon will catch them all.
The power plant area and
the eastside north of North
Bridge are good starting
points. Lots of drum from
the bridges along with all
the usual suspects. Dark
hours for snook using big
pin fish or casting flair
hawks. And yes a strong
tidal flow is important for
the snook, 28- to 32-inches
is the slot.
Offhsore has been quiet, it
is all about the conditions.
Cool and less than polite
seas have kept most tied to
the dock. From 80- to 125-
feet seems to be the action.
Pay attention and have a
pitch rod ready.
Lots of anglers are talking
about the fish,swimming
past the boat and not having
a rod ready for the cast.
, But for me, I have to go
with Captain Squeeky Kelly's
advice, run to the "twinkly
blue water" and start there.
The fish just like the clean
water and so do I.
Until next time, go catch a
fish and pay attention, there
is a reason that fish was
there.

Tackle Shop in Jensen Beach.

The Mets return to Port


St. Lucie with high hopes


BY JOHN MACDONALD
Sports writer


Have you ever sat in a
w restaurant and spied the
last piece of New York style
Cheesecake behind the
dessert counter, only to see
several other people who
Shave the same idea, but
they have enough to pay
S for it?
A rHowever, lo and behold
: the other suitors decide
4 the treat is too rich for
them and leave, while the
Ne manager decides to cut his
price, making it impossible
r ai-AI to pass up.
As you're sitting there
enjoying your good for-
\ .. tune, you suddenly won-
I der, was it worth it?
Unlike the cheesecake,
'- the New York Mets and its
Fans are having no such
S buyer's remorse, as the
t.'club begins Spring Train-
ing in Port St. Lucie. Expec-
stations are high after Min-
nesota Twins' ace pitcher
Johan Santana was
deemed too expensive by
.. '-.. the New York Yankees and
..,- ."- Boston Red Sox and fell
.i ...."' t'." into the waiting arms of
,., ..,., ', Mets' general manager
f. Omar Minaya.
44,"4 , .Overall, the Mets gave up
very little in return and the
Club was able to sign San-
tana to a six-year, $137.5
million deal with the hopes
that the return on its
investment will pay divi-
-. dends every October.
"- -"The biggest question is
". whether Santana will wilt
under the pressure of play-
ing in the Big Apple (i.e.
.. Randy Johnson) or thrive
and make fans forget about
the team's horrific collapse
Mitch Kloorfain/chief photographer last season, when it blew a
New York Mets pitcher Brian Stokes works on drills covering first base during the first seven-game lead in the
week of spring training at Tradition Field in Port St. Lucie. The Mets play their first spring final 17 games of the sea-
training exhibition against the University of Michigan Tuesday, Feb. 26 at noon. "I think we felt the pres-


'ondos*


sure in the last couple of
weeks," David Wright said.
"I don't want to feel like I
felt in October watching
the other teams play.
"Hopefully, we can take
some positives out of it."
For now, everything is
rosy and Santana adds to a
staff that finished seventh
in the National League
with a 4.26 ERA. He is a sig-
nificant upgrade over Tom
Glavine, who returned to
the Braves to finish out his
career.
"He is looking forward to
(the season)," Mets' skip-
per Willie Randolph said of
Santana. "He's going to be
a real asset to the club."
Santana leads the majors
in wins (90), ERA (2.89)
and strikeouts (983) since
2004 and should comple-
ment Pedro Martinez nice-
ly at the top of the rotation.
Martinez pitched well after
returning from rotator-cuff
surgery, and the duo
should make a formidable
1-2 punch.
Both John Maine and
Oliver Perez made great
strides last season in help-
ing to lead the Mets in
Martinez's absence. Both
exceeded expectations and
had similar stats, with
Maine going 15-10 with a
3.91 ERA while Perez went
15-10 with a 3.56 ERA.
The tandem is still rela-
tively young at 26 years old
and should benefit from
Martinez's and Santana's
leadership and experience.
Minaya has stated that
the No. 5 spot in the rota-
tion belongs to Orlando
Hernandez, but Mike PIl-
frey remains in contention
despite going 0-7 in his
first 10 starts. Pelfrey did
shine in his first win of the
season, beating the Braves
Sept. 1 at Turner Field.
The 24-year old allowed


just one hit while striking
out seven in six innings on
that day, giving a glimpse
of what the Mets' brass had
been looking for all year.
The bullpen should be
much improved with the
return of Duaner Sanchez.
Sanchez missed all of 2007
after surgery on his right
shoulder. He should help
provide a bridge, along
with Aaron Heilman, Pedro
Feliciano and Scott Schoe-
neweis, from the starters to
Billy Wagner.
Wagner had an excep-
tional season, recording 34
saves, and will be called on
again to close out the
opposition.
The Mets got another
good year offensively from
one of its young stars in
David Wright. Wright had a
solid year all around with
30 home runs and 34
stolen bases to go with a
.325 batting average.
Jose Reyes' performance
drew mixed reviews. While,
he stole a major league
leading 78 bases while
scoring 119 runs, he only
hit 12 home runs while
driving in 57 RBIs. Reyes
batted .280, but struggled
down the stretch, con-
tributing to the Mets' epic
flop.
Although with consider-
able less fanfare than San-
tana, Luis Castillo came to
the Mets last year from
Minnesota and provided
stability at second base. He
hit .301 while stealing 10
bases in his brief Mets'
stint. Castillo and Reyes
formed an excellent dou-
ble-play combination,
solidifying the right side of
the infield.
One of the biggest disap-
pointments of 2007 was
the 'performance of first

baseman Carlos Delgado. Perennially a
power threat, Delgado's numbers dipped
dramatically last season with just 24 home
runs and 87 RBIs to his credit. His RBI
total was the lowest since 1995.
The outfield is filled with, potential but
also with its share of question marks. Left
field belongs to Moises Alou who showed
flashes of brilliance .341 with 13 home
runs and 49 RBIs in 328 at-bats last sea-
son. However, the 41-year-old appeared in
fewer than 100 games for the second
straight season.
In center will be Carlos Beltran. Beltran
had a solid year, leading the Mets with 33


home runs and 112 RBIs. He stole 23 bases
and at 30 years old he is still capable of
being a legitimate threat on the basepaths.
While deemed untouchable for most of
his career with the Mets,, Lastings Milledge
was finally dealt to the Washington
Nationals for Ryan Church and Brian
Schneider. Church will see most of the
action in right field for the Mets after hit-
ting .272 with 15 home runs and 70 RBIs
last season.
"He's my right fielder," Randolph said.
"Hopefully, this is the year he'll put it all
together."
In its continuing quest to replace Mike
Piazza, the Mets let Paul Lo Duca leave via
free agency, satisfied with the combina-
tion of Schneider and Ramon Castro at
catcher.-Schneider should be an improve-


ment behind the plate, although his offen-
sive numbers of a year ago leave some-
thing to be desired.
"He's a real take charge kind of catcher,"
Randolph said. "He has a little pop in his
bat. He hits above average."
Castro did have a good season at the
plate hitting .285 with 11 home runs
and 31 RBIs in just 144 at-bats.
No one will be on the hotseat this sea-
son more than Randolph unless you're
considering his counterpart across town.
However, unlike Joe Girardi who starts
fresh with the Yankees this season, Ran-
dolph was skewered in the media and by
fans alike after the Mets' demise last sea-
son. The Mets' brass decided to bring him
back, hoping his leadership and experi-
ence will help push the team to the post-


season.
Overall, the Mets are a much-improved
club entering 2008. The acquisition of
Santana gives the Mets its first legitimate
ace since the days of Dwight Gooden and
David Cone. The deal could go down as
one of the most successful ones in the
team's storied history, alongside the trades
for Keith Hernafidez and Gary Carter.
Unlike those swaps, however, Santana
joins a team that is loaded with talent,
while the former Mets icons joined clubs
that were historically bad for many years.
The deal will ultimately be judged on
whether Santana can help bring New York
its first World Series title since those
Carter and Hernandez-filled days of '86 or
just another 'Wait till next year.'

BY JOHN MACDONALD
Sports writer


Jo Hayes is hoping for a
hole in one without pick-
ing up a golf club.
Hayes, one of the organiz-
ers of the upcoming Susan
- G. Komen Rally for the Cure
Golf Tournament, is expect-
ing a huge turnout for the
event taking place Feb. 28 at
the Hammock Creek Golf
Club in Palm City.
"Last year, we had 82
golfers," Hayes said. "We
were able to send the Rally
for the Cure foundation over
$3,500. It was the most we
ever raised.
"It was a great thing. This
year, we're hoping for more.
We're hoping for 120
I, (golfers)."
While the event has
become a annual tradition,
last year was the first to
include men in the competi-
' tion, which greatly improved
the numbers. Although the
festivities are put on by the
Hammock Creek Ladies Golf
Association, Hayes wel-
comed the new participants.


"Before last year, we would
have 30 or 40 people," Hayes
said. "If we raised $1,000, it
was a big deal.
"We didn't want to ruffle
any feathers, but cancer hits
everybody. I had an uncle
who died of breast cancer. It
doesn't just affect women so
why are we offering it to just
women?
"Men get cancer. Women
get cancer. Children get can-
cer."
For more than two
decades, the Susan G.
Komen for the Cure has
been a leading force in the
fight against breast cancer.
Through its support of inno-
vative research and commu-
nity-based outreach pro-
grams, the foundation is,
fighting to eliminate breast
cancer as a life-threatening
disease. The organization
came about as a result of a
dying promise between two
sisters.
Susan Goodman Komen
was diagnosed with breast
cancer in 1978 when little
was known about the deadly
disease. She died when she


was 36, but not before she
asked her sister Nancy
Goodman Brinker -7 to do
all she could to eradicate the.
disease.
Brinker established the
organization in 1982, fulfill-
ing her sister's final wish.
Hayes is happy to help
coordinate the event for
such a noble purpose.
"I think it's super," Hayes
said. "It's such a great cause."
The tournament begins
with a shotgun start at 8:30
a.m. The entry fee is $50 per
person for club members
and $100 for non-members,
which includes entry into
the competition and lunch.
Sponsorship of a hole is $150
or $500 with a foursome.
There are various ways to
enter, including a four-per-
son scramble, a ladies' divi-
sion, as well as a mixed
team. There are also contests
for straightest drive and
closest to the hole.
"We're trying to push it,"
Hayes said. "If we get more
and more it'll be better."
For more information, call
(772) 286-0853.

FREE "LIVING TRUST" SEMINAR
Find out how you may be able to
Transfer Your Estate to Your Family Quickly-Without Probate Fees & with Minimum Estate Taxes


If you own a home...or you have assets worth at least
$100,000...you owe it to yourself-and your family-to get the
facts on living trusts. If you think you're protected with a simple
Will...think again... In many cases, a Will guarantees your estate will
go through probate, which means your family may not be able to
take possession of your estate for many months, or even years!
Plus, if your estate is over $1 million in the year 2011, your
family may owe estate taxes which could amount to 41-55% of the
value of your estate.
PORT ST. LUCIE
Tuesday, February 26 Thi
10:00 am 12:00 noon 10


This means that your family may have to sell some assets just
to,pay the estate taxes!
A living trust can eliminate probate and minimize estate
taxes. Plus, a living trust may protect-your estate if you become
incapacitated during your lifetime by avoiding a guardianship.
This means your estate may be managed as you see fit, not as a
court-appointed guardian sees fit.
To find out more about the benefits of living trusts, attend
one of these free seminars... .. _
