Despite threats, mining permits halted for 6 months


BY WARREN KAGARISE
StaffWriter
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY
- Environmentalists called
a countywide moratorium
on new mining permits a
victory. Attorneys for one
mining operation threat-
ened a lawsuit. And the
Florida Department of
Transportation said the six-
month freeze could slow
down road construction.


For nearly three hours
Monday night, the County
Commission listened to
comments from citizens,
engineers and mine devel-
opers before voting 4-0 to
enact the mining permit
moratorium. Commission-
er Wesley Davis abstained
from voting, citing a poten-
tial conflict of interest. His
brother, Brian Davis, owns
mining operations in the
northern county.


Supporters said mining
could provide cheaper
material to build roads and
other infrastructure. Oppo-
nents argued that mining
would kick up dust and
taint groundwater.
During the moratorium,
which is set to expire July
10,, county staff members
will update mining regula-
tions.
Vero Beach attorney
Ralph Evans, who repre-


sents the proposed Wild
Turkey Estates mine, threat-
ened a $10.0 million lawsuit
if the ban derailed the Wild
Turkey Estates project.
"Everyone has said, 'We
don't want to interfere with
the use of your land,'" Mr.
Evans said. "We'd like to use
it."
Developers plan to mine
230 acres for sand and
coquina, a rock comprised
of sand and shell, on the


835-acre Wild Turkey
Estates near 82nd Avenue.
Mr. Evans argued that
mining could produce envi-
ronmental benefits as well.
When mining is completed
at Wild Turkey Estates, after
about 10 years, a 230-acre
lake will remain at the site
- which Mr.. Evans said
could help the county store
surface water.

Soon, the aging Chamber

Since mid-2007, the

Inside the building will be

will be allowed to use

And the building, whiich

gateway to downtown Vero

worst case scenario and not
the best," Mrs. Kapp said
last week.
Meanwhile, investigators
have interviewed Ms. Myers'
friends, old boyfriends and
patrons at the two bars she
... visited on the night she dis--
appeared.
Detective Ronald Wentz,
the lead Sheriff's Office
investigator, said, he could
offer few details on the case,
citing the ongoing investiga-
tion. But he said the Sheriff's
Office was pursuing leads
and working with other law
enforcement agencies.
A Port St. Lucie private
investigative agency,
National Investigative and
Forensic Examiners, volun-.
teered to take the case last
year.
"This case is solvable, and
I do believe we can solve it,"
said Jim Hannan, the lead
private investigator.
National Investigative and
Forensic Examiners has
traced the case across Flori-
da and turned over informa-
tion to the Sheriff's Office
"We're working hand-in-
'hand with him," Mr. Wentz
said.
Since the Jan. 11, 2006, dis-
appearance, Mrs. Kapp has
marshaled the effort to find
Dori, printing hundreds of
fliers with photos of Ms.
Myers and her description.
Six months after Dori disap-
peared, family members
and friends rallied in Vero
Beach. Last year, Mrs. Kapp
launched a Web site,
D.A.M.M.A.D., an acronym
for Dori Ann Myers Missing
Abducted Duped.
Somewhere, there are
answers, Mrs. Kapp said:
"It's time that somebody
talks. Someone knows
something."

peared, Ms. Myers stopped by

was a hairdresser. She came to
play poker, but the tables were
full.
So Ms. Myers headed to the
St. Lucie Inn along Old Dixie
Highway in Fort Pierce. There,
authorities later said, she met
her abductors: Two men who
claimed to be Marines
wounded in Iraq.
Ms. Myers, then 43, offered
them her couch and a pullout
sofa for the night.
Back at her Lakewood Park
home, neighbors heard voices
and car doors slamming
around 2 a.m. Ms. Myers'
black Toyota drove off. Min-
utes later, fire tore through the
house at 8401 Salerno Road.
For investigators, the trail of
evidence led to the siouth-
western shore of Lake Okee-
chobee. Near Moore Haven, a
tiny farming town, authorities
discovered the smoldering
Toyota sedan at 5 a.m.
But investigators never
found anysign ofMs. Myers.
"I am not totally satisfied
that DorinMyers is dead," Mr.
Hannan said last week.
Ms. Myers' purse wds dis-
covered in the ruis of her
home. Her pets, a black Lab
named Emily, and a cat, Miss
Priss, died in the fire.
But there is no way Ms.
Myers would have left willing-
ly, her sister said.
"She would never have been
gone this long without reach-
ing somebody, especially me,"
Mrs. Kapp said.
In the weeks after the fire,
investigators produced
dozens of unsuccessful line-
ups, but each one proved
fruitless. Now, investigators
are working to narrow the
pool of possible suspects, Mr.
Hannan said.
"Day by day," he continued,
"we're getting closer."
Suspect composites
released by the Sheriff's Office
are vague. One shows a white
man wearing a baseball cap,
while the other depicts a man
with a darker complexioh.

Against the odds

On Jan. 17, 2007, Circuit
Judge Ben L. Bryan Jr.
declared Ms. Myers legally
dead. Her only child and heir,
Jesse King, was appointed as
her representative. Family
members needed to access
insurance money to begin
repairs to the Lakewood Park
"house, but insurers would
release the money only if Ms.
Myers were declared dead.
The ruling did not affect the
investigation, Mr. Wentz said.
Still, it has been difficult to
keep people tuned in to the
case.
"It's very tough to keep the
public interested because it's
in their face for one or two
months and then it's gone,"
the detective said.
After two years without
developments, interest in the
case has waned. Ms. Myers
has faded from Florida news-
papers and newscasts.
National news programs,
which focused on the disap-
pearance early on, have
moved elsewhere. '"America's
Most Wanted" has devoted a
Web page to Ms. Myers, but
without detailed suspect
descriptions, little more can
be done.
Mrs. Kapp wants to keep the
case fresh, but each day that
passes makes the task more
difficult. And she has other
hardships to face: Mrs. Kapp
spends her days in Jack-
sonville, where her ailing hus-
band is awaiting'a liver trans-
plant at the Mayo Clinic.
Until investigators unlock
the mystery surrounding Ms.
Myers' disappearance, her sis-
ter hopes for clues that will
explain why Dori vanished.
"We need the public to
remember her -face," Mrs.
Kapp said, "to remember that
day."

Anyone with information
about Dori Ann Myers' 2006
disappearance can contact the
St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office

Coast Crimestoppers at (800)

Canal cleanup surges ahead


BY WARREN KAGARISE
Staff Writer

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY
- Decaying plants and
fertilizer washed from
agricultural fields and
neighborhood lawns flow
through more than 600
miles of drainage canals
and ditches into the Indian
River Lagoon, where the
pollutants harm native
animals, fish and plants.
Now, a $5 million project
along the Main Relief
Canal could cut the polliu-

releases into the estuary.
Since October, when the
project began, workers
have installed the first
pieces of an immense fil-
tration system near U.S. 1
and Vero Beach Municipal
Airport.
By July, screens will cap-
ture fertilizer, plants and
trash from the slow-mov-
ing canal water, and then
use a conveyer belt to
deliver the waste to trash
bins. From there, the
material will be trucked to
the Indian River County
Landfill.


Underwater sediment
traps will catch heavier
material.
Keith McCully, a county
stormwater engineer,
explained the project to
county officials last week,
during a hardhat tour of
the construction site.
Surrounded by concrete
slabs and rebar skeletons,
County Commission
Chairwoman Sandra Bow-

Power knocked out for 1,500
on wintry night

VERO BEACH Hours before temperatures dropped
to near-record lows on Jan. 2, a vehicle struck two utility
poles, knocking out power to 1,500 city utility cus-
tomers.
Power was restored to most customers within a few
hours of the 11 p.m. crash. Power to remaining cus-
tomers was restored by the next morning.
Overnight Jan. 3, temperatures reached 33 degrees,
the National Weather Service reported.
Authorities said a 17-year-old girl was driving east on
State Road 60 when she lost control of her vehicle, and
hit a sidewalk and utility poles along the south side of
the roadway.
The driver, who did not suffer serious injuries, was
charged with careless driving.

Growers escape hard freeze
during cold snap

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY Temperatures plunged
near freezing last week, but citrus growers avoided a
hard freeze that could have damaged their crops.
Overnight Jan. 3, the mercury plummeted to 33 degrees,
one degree above freezing, the NationalWeather Service
reported.
The record low temperature for Jan. 3, 30 degrees, was
set in 1979.
Florida Citrus Mutual, the 8,000-member citrus grow-
er association, said Florida growers "dodged a bullet"
when temperatures dropped but did not cause signifi-
cant damage to the citrus crop.
"This is good news for growers, good news for con-
sumers and good news for the.state of Florida," Florida
Citrus Mutual executive vice president and CEO Michael
W. Sparks said in a news release. "Mother Nature cut us a
break this time and now we can continue to produce the
quality citrus crop Florida is known for."
Though there may be isolated areas that have minor
fruit damage, temperatures did not dip low enough for
long enough duration to create substantial problems,
Florida Citrus Mutual reported.
For 2008, the United States Department of Agriculture
forecast a 168 million box orange crop a 30 percent
increase from the 2006-2007 season.
'As reports come in, we fully expect to hear about
pockets of fruit damage but as a whole the industry
came through this in good shape," Mr. Sparks said.

Cabinet could decide on land swap
this month

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY- Before the end of January,
Gov. Charlie Crist and members of the state Cabinet

Ask The Jeweler
IS IT MINE ?
I buy lots of jewelry from
the public. To do so I must
fill out a police report when
purchasing jewelry from
the public. We must ask
whose ring (or whatever
they are selling) it is. We do
this to determine whether it
is their property to sell or if
they have authorization to,
sell it. And I frequently
hear something that dis-
turbs me. One of them is
from ladies that have been
engaged but have since
broken off the engage-
ment. They have given the
engagement ring back. The
second thing I hear is that
the man brings the ring in
to sell and he tells me he
"took" it back.
Well here's the real deal.
If you receive an engage-
ment ring, it's yours. You
can wear it, sell it, or do
anything .you want with it.
It's yours. If he .'kes" it
back without your duthori-
zation, it is still yours and
you can take whatever
legal means you like to get
it back. Therefore if he tries
to sell it to me or any other
jeweler it is not his to sell.
This is straight from the
detective that is our repre-
sentative from the sheriff's
office.

In September, the water
district swapped 1,265
acres of public land with
the Corrigan ranching
family. In return, the water
district received 463 acres
of the Corrigans' land.
The action prompted an
outcry from the County
Commission and environ-
mentalists who want the
land preserved.
In October, the County
Commission and Pelican
Island Audubon Society
filed appeals with the state
Land and Water Adjudica-

side the governor, the
commission consists of
-Attorney 'General" Bill
McCollum, Chief Financial
Officer Alex Sink and Com-
missioner of Agriculture

Charles Bronson.
In 1999, the water dis-
trict purchased the disput-

Lakes, for preservation.
Members of the Corrigan
family said water district
activity caused flooding on
their land and threatened
to sue, leading to the land

Once the remains of the
55-year-old structure are
gone, the five-acre site will
be landscaped into green
space. The parking lot will
serve as spillover parking
for the County Administra-
tion Complex and nearby
school district offices.
In August, workers
moved across 27th Street
to the $45 million County
Administration Complex.
Weeks later, the County
Commission approved a

Social Security benefits taking long

I am a 58-year-old white male that was diagnosed with
polycystie kidney disease in 2003. I was told at that time I
would not get better and should slow down working. "Well"
at that time I owned my own small business and was a one-
man show. In 2006 the doctors were right. By that time
because of my disease I couldn't regulate my blood pres-
sure, the cysts on my kidneys had grown to a point where I
gained 45 pounds and I had a stroke, which left me with
partial use of my right leg and blind in my left eye. After a
year of treatment and eye surgery in 2007, my eye did not
get better.
In 2006, as I. said, my doctors made me stop working. I
had to sell my business and quit. I have a family doctor, a
kidney doctor and eye specialist and I had to hire a lawyer,
which will also costs me $5,000 out of my pocket. More
money than necessary is being spent to straighten this situ-
ation out. All have been in charge of filling out a mountain
of paper work and writing letters explaining my physical
condition to Social Security trying to get my disability
approved. I have had two denials so far and my case is sit-
ting on some judge's desk in Miami waiting for a decision to
be made.
I belong to AARP and in their November 2007, Volume 48
edition, the headlines on the front cover reads, "They Died
Waiting, Lost in Social Security Hell." The article is on Page
10. I personally have talked to people who have waited 4
years ormore to get their benefits.
The ironic thing is that when you get it, it is retroactive
from when you apply. Some people have gotten $49,000 in
one lump sum. The problem is that by that time you have
lost your house, your car and everything else you worked all


your life for. Creditors, utilities, mortgage companies, gro-
cery stores don't let you live using IOUs until your money
shows up.
The real problem with all of this is, as I said, I am 58 years old;
I have been working since I was 13. I have paid in to Social
Security since I was 16 years old. I am not asking for welfare or
a free handout. "I want what's mine"! I paid in to Social Security
all of my life. As I just said, I am not asking for a free handout, I
only want what belongs to me and what I have coming to me.
I am not an unwed mother on welfare with three kids who do
not know who their fathers are (notice I used plural for fathers).
In most cases there is more than one not paying any support
for their children.
I am not an illegal immigrant using the system to get free
medical benefits.
I am a citizen of the United States who has been paying my
share of taxes, on time all my life, to help cover the above. There


are probably plenty more examples available, but these are the
two that most citizens of the United States are most familiar
with at the present time.
I am mad and for good reason, I want my money before I get
kicked out of my house, lose my car and can't buy groceries for
me and my family.
Could you live for two to four years with no income or insur-
ance for health care and prescriptions?
I have been spending $790 a month for health insurance
alone, which will soon end because it will be unaffordable in
the near future under these circumstances. Knowing'that the
only thing I have to look forward to are dialysis and a kidney
transplant where is all that money going to come from?
Read the AARP article. Let's start worrying about our own
United State citizens and taking care of us first.

Make sure recipients can open attachments


T A "en it comes to
\/\1 sending attach-
V V ments through e-
mail, most people have one
thing in mind: pictures.
If you think about it,
sending other files types
through e-mail can be one of
the most useful abilities that
the Internet affords.
Picture this: You're working
on a file at the office, maybe a
Word or Excel document. A
colleague in another part of
town or another office needs
to see the file. Some people -
will print out the file and
physically deliver or fax the
document to their colleague
?! not realizing that the e-mail
system can be used to deliver
any kind of file right to


another computer.-
Attach the file to an e-mail
message to your colleague
just as you would if you were
sending a picture. As long as
the recipient has the same
software that you used to
create it, he (or she) should
be able to save it to his hard
drive and open it, just like
any other file. Then he can
print the document if he
wants or do what he will
with it.
It is, however, the sender's
responsibility to make sure
that their recipients can open
the file before it's sent.
Nothing is more frustrating
then getting an e-mail
message marked, "Here's the
file you wanted," only to find


it is in some format you've
never heard of and your
computer can't open.
For instance, if you're
sending aWord document,
find out what word processor
the recipient uses. That
person may be using an older
version of Word and not be
able to open a file in a newer
version. A quick peak in the
"help" pull down menu and a
click at the "about" option
will tell you what version
your word processor is.
Also, have the recipient
check his system so you can
save the document in the
correct version.
If you click "save as" and
look at the "file type" option
pull down menu, you'll see


SEAN MCCARTHY
Compute This


you have the ability to save
your document in rnany
different formats. This puts


, ;the coiXq t-o file typEai,
your hands.
The same thing goes when
sending a picture. Make sure
it's a file that is saved in a
format that your intended
recipient can open. Usually
.jpg (jpeg) is a safe bet.
Some people's familiarity
with e-mail attachments
ends with the occasional.
picture, but once the idea of
transferring files that way
becomes clear, a lot of
possibilities present them-
selves.
Let's go over the steps for
sending a file.
First, you need to know
where the file you want to
send is on your computer
and what it's called. If you


phy ay document you wgnt to
send, save it and pay atten-
tion to where you save if and
what it's named. Then, when
you have your e-mail
program open, click "new
message" and begin to
compose your message.
Enter the recipient's e-mail
address, a comment in the
subject field and then click
the "attach" button.
Next, your computer will
give you some options. You
want to indicate to the
computer that you are
attaching a "file." Click the
appropriate button and then
navigate to the location on
your hard drive where the file

Make the move toward exercise one step at a time


Think that almost every-
body, every year, resolves
to exercise more.
We know we should. We
know it's good for us for a lot
for reasons. We know we'll.
look and feel better and our
clothes will fit better. If that's
true, why aren't we all
exercisin' fools?
It may be that getting
started is one part of the
equation. Maintaining
enthusiasm for it is another
part. Also, you have to be
willing to work on both ends
to make exercise work for
you.
This year, instead of
writing about choosing a
fitness center, which is not
an option for many because
of cost, distance or shyness,
I thought I'd write about


"The Power of One." That's
my way of suggesting
making one change in your
routine at a time. Trying to
train for a marathon when
you haven't run before is a
prescription for failure.
The first thing to do is,
examine your day and see
where you can incorporate
exercise. Can you walk to
work or to the store instead
of driving? Can you park in a
distant space and walk to
your destination, instead of
parking in the closest space?
If you're going to the mall,
can you make several trips
around, just walking, before
you start to window shop?
Little steps like that get you'
moving and get your mind
into an exercise mode.
Many people think they


have to invest in expensive
memberships, clothes or
equipment in order to
exercise. It's not true. You
can get pedometers for less
than $10. A pedometer
measures the number of
steps you take. An ideal goal
is 10,000 a day. Spend a day
and see how far you actually
do go. If it's 2,000, aim to
increase that by about 500
the first week. Try to add
some each week. A pedome-
ter is a reminder to keep
moving; you'll be surprised
at how quickly the numbers
add up.
I am a big fan of exercise
videos. They can be used at
any time, they have music to
keep you interested, you can
exercise despite rainy or hot
weather and there are many
to choose from.


SHELLEY KOPPEL
Alive and Well


You can build up an
exercise library over time.
Collage Videos sells many of
them and you can even
preview some at www.col-
lagevido.com. If you're
Internet savvy, you can find


some on eBay.
I like Leslie Sansone, a
fitness expert whose
programs are built on
simple walking steps and
Denise Austin, who has
some beginner tapes, as
well. Choose something you
can do, because the best
program in the world won't
work if it's too difficult and
you don't like it. You can
even find specialized ones,
such as kickboxing, country
dancing, salsa, even belly
dancing. In your own home,
who cares how silly you
think you look? Let yourself
enjoy the music and the
movement.
In the last year, I have
really tried to work exercise
into every day. I find that
dance videos are a fun way


to get cardiovascular
exercise, benefiting the
heart and lungs. Some days,
I do exercises holding light
weights, concentrating on
the upper body and spine, to
help fend off osteoporosis.
Other days, I'll combine the
two, or do some lower-body
exercises. I try to mix and
match my workouts because
I tend to get bored; if I vary
the routines, my muscles
have to "think" about what
comes next. I will be the fist
one.to say that exercise is
not easy, but I feel better
each day that I do work out,
both physically and emo-
tionally.
If you can, buddy-up to
motivate yourself and a

Tax relief project rests

in voters' hands


John Adams said,
"Property is surely a
right of mankind as real
as liberty."
His words reflect the
principles that have guided
the Florida Legislature
through the process of
bringing property tax relief
to the people of our state.
The right to property is
essential to the American
dream. When that right is
threatened by unexpected,
unbearable spikes in
property taxes, relief must
be provided.
The Legislature passed a
comprehensive constitu-
tional amendment last year
that, if approved by voters
on Jan. 29, will provide that
relief.
One of the key provisions
in our relief package allows
homeowners to transfer
their Save Our Homes tax
benefit to a new home. This
policy, called portability,


JEFF ATWATER
Senate president-designate

will spark Florida's economy
with only a minimal impact
on local government. When
one family downsizes into a
smaller home that better
meets their needs, thanks to
portability, another family
can afford to move into that
home.

The will of the people

What an interesting
concept. The term
describes a bedrock princi-
ple of every democratic
society.
The translation of it, from
concept to reality in public
policy requires individual
action by participant voters.
The actions of the 2007
Legislature, as expressed in
the much-debated Jan. 29
Constitutional amendment
vote, place this simple but
complex principle as the
next step up the staircase of
Florida's ongoing property
tax reform efforts.
The legislature has
basically said: "We decide"
for "you to decide."

Mining
From page Al


There were skeptics of the
proposal, including Vero
Beach architect Amy Banov,
who lives near two mining
operations.
"I'm not going to threaten
you with multi-billion-dol-
lar lawsuits, and I'm not
going to promise you an
oasis of 230 acres," she said,
urging commissioners to
enact the ban.
Port St. Lucie attorney
Jonathan Ferguson, who
represents the Wild Turkey
Estates owners, said mining
permits should be reviewed
on a case-by-case basis
instead of halted for six
months.
Mike Bienvenu, a state
transportation engineer,
said state transportation
officials opposed the mora-
torium because it could pre-
vent the state from receiving
the material it needs to con-
struct new roads.
He asked commissioners
to hold off on a decision
until Feb. 1, when a report


detailing how to provide
rock for roads is due to
reach Gov. Charlie Crist and
the Legislature.
But Mr. Bienvenu said he
understood local concerns:
"Indian River County has to
do what Indian River Coun-
ty has to do for its citizens."
Nancy Offutt, government
affairs director for the Trea-
sure Coast Builders Associa-
tion, told commissioners
that her organization also
opposed the moratorium.
"Mining has to go where
the resource is," Mrs. Offutt
said.
But she empathized with
the residents who voiced
concerns.
"Would I want to live next
to a rock mine?" Mrs. Offutt
asked. "No, I would not. I
don't blame the people who
are concerned about the
process."
During the months-long
debate about a countywide
mining permit moratorium,
supporters of the ban


focused on Treasure Ham-
mock Ranch. By allowing
mining nearby, they said,
the county would be threat-
ening the conservation area.
"Everybody thinks we're
putting that piece of proper-
ty at risk," Mr. Evans said.
"The gem of the county.,
Well, when you start paying
that kind of money for
something, it will become a
gem."
In February 2007, the
county paid the Sexton fam-
ily $12 million for develop-
ment rights at the 462-acre
Treasure Hammock Ranch.
As she rose to speak,
Sharon Sexton told the
County Commission and
the packed chamber that
she disliked conflict. But she
worried that mining could
damage the property, which
is a stop for migrating birds.
"If I didn't live there, I
would still feel this way," she
said. '"Anyone who knows
me knows how much I love
animals."

ronmental Protection
Agency wants Florida
counties along the water-
way to cut nutrient-rich
runoff by 50 percent. In
Indian River County, the
156-mile lagoon reaches
one of its narrowest
points, which heightens
the sensitivity to pollution.
Each day, 50 million gal-
lons of water flow from the
canal to the lagoon. When
the filtration structure is
complete, the system will
have a daily capacity of
304 million gallons. Jeremy
Thompson, project man-
ager with Stuart-based
Lucas Marine Construc-
tion, said the capacity
would allow the system to
continue operating even
during heavy rainfall.
Because the water flows
so slowly, turtles and other
wildlife are unlikely to
become caught in the
screens, project engineers
said.
For Ruth Stanbridge, a
former county commis-
sioner, the purpose of the
filtration project is
twofold. Mrs. Stanbridge
said the effort could help


careers in the music field, or
offer lessons to students
who simply want to play an
instrument or sing for their
own personal growth or
entertainment.
Classes are available to
adults and children and are
filling up quickly. For more

7265, or visit www.academy-

In order to accommo-.

play an abbreviated, 10-

town this spring down

available watel supply.
After sediments kave been
separated from tie water,
the water can be stored in
lakes and wetlands in the
undeveloped western
county.
Next month, engineers
plan to install two sets of
screens each ori with
openings of a different
diameter. That way, proj-
ect engineers said, sedi-
ments that slip though
the first screen wil be
caught by the second.
When the project is
complete, the structure
will be almost invisibe to
motorists on nearby /via-
tion Boulevard. Plans call
for date palms and
plumbagos, a floweiing
plant, to be added to the
site. Eventually, Vr.
McCully said, the county
hopes to open a small edu-
cational facility along he


canal.
I More than 4,000 speces
of plants and animals
inhabit the lagoon aid
face threats caused by
runoff and other polih-
tants. Nitrogen and othir
nutrients flow into the
brackish water, choking
native seagrasses ant
causing algae to bloom.
Before the canals were
dug in early 20th century
the waterways were also
part of the lagoon ecosys-i
tem.
Back then, the three
main modern-day canals
were shallow tidal creeks
that flowed to the lagoon.
Since the early 1900s, the
Indian River Farms Water
Control District has been
responsible for overseeing
the flood-control canals
that crisscross Indian River
County. In 1915, when a
flood nearly wiped
Fellsmere off the map, Vero
Beach was spared because
of its canal network.

taxes). This will allow the
tax benefit to keep pace
with the increased price of
housing. More than 94
percent of Florida home-
owners will enjoy tax relief
under the increased
exemption. Once approved
by the voters, this benefit
will provide relief on your
next tax bill.
The proposed constitu-
tional amendment creates a
new exemption from taxes
on tangible personal
property of $25,000 and
eliminates the need for
businesses to file a return if


one form of reform versus
another. One could say the
rubber has hit the road as
individuals and tax reform
groups begin to clearly see
and define their own "devil
in the details" as tax reform
continues to evolve.
The American Revolution
began, in part, as a revolt
against unfair taxation from
England. The importance of
taxation is such that
creation of new taxes can
only be done in our state
constitution. Therefore,
significant changes to
constitutional systems
generally involve constitu-
tional amendments, only
approved by the expressed
will of the people.
Our own state Legislature
worked diligently through
two special sessions to pass
meaningful tax reform.

good rule of thumb is 100

they have less than $25,000
in tangible personal
property. This change will
exempt more than a million
Floridians from this tax, out
of a total of 1.2 million who
currently pay it. Many
Floridians actually spent
more money complying
with related paperwork
than they owed in TPP
taxes. This proposed
amendment will cut away
that red tape.
Small business owners,

benefit from the fourth

many about the Jan. 29
amendment, both pro and
con. The "spin" is on.
Some say it doesn't do
enough, some say it does
too much, others say it
really isn't needed at all. It's
getting hard to figure who is
spinning what.
Some who were "for-it"
before are "against-it" now.
I think both citizens and
local governments sent a lot
of mixed signals to the
legislature. A lot of people
tell me they're confused.
The Jan. 29 amendment
offers four tax reform
solutions:
It creates "portability" of
the Save Our Homes benefit,
up to $500,000. You will be
able to move without

ture's tax relief plan, which
places a 10 percent cap on
assessments of non-
homestead properties.
Most non-homestead
property owners have
experienced "sticker shock"
when looking at their tax
bills in recent years. This
cap provides predictability
for all properties in Florida;
no longer will property
owners have to fear unex-
pected, large assessment
spikes.
This legislation reflects
the testimony and ideas of
so many concerned voters
across Florida. Now the


had the exemption as of Jan.
1, 2007 and moved into
another home within two
years.
Everyone with a home-
stead exemption will receive
a property tax cut of roughly
$295, as each Florida
resident owner receives a
second $25,000 exemption
(applying after $50,000 in
value). This does not apply
to school taxes (meaning the
added exemption is effec-
tively a little over $15,000).
All non-homesteaded
properties (all other proper-
ties) receive a SOH-like
value cap of 10 percent per
year. This limits increases in
taxable value and therefore,
taxes, much like SOH does
on homes, just at a higher
percentage.
All Florida businesses
receive a new $25,000
exemption on their tangible


choice is exactly where it
should be: in your hands.
On Jan. 29, you, the voter,
will have the opportunity to
approve this proposed
amendment and provide
much-needed property tax
relief in our state. The
American dream is alive
and well in Florida, and this
constitutional amendment
will ensure that Floridians
can continue making that
dream a reality in their own
lives.

personal property (business
machinery, furniture,
computers, equipment,
etc.). This exemption also
applies to mobile home
attachments on rented land.
This will benefit all, but have
more impact on small
businesses.
The Florida Legislature
has laid out the tax reform
playing field and has given
the decision on what
happens to those bearing
the benefits (or the pain)
from the consequences.
As we all exercise our
constitutional right to vote
on Jan. 29, Florida's first tax
reform measures will truly
reflect the will -of the people.

A en we live an
inner-directed life
V from our dreams
and visions, we manifest
and create our realities.
The current belief in
America is that the last
frontier is outer space. We
have conquered the moun-
tains, deserts and seas.
I believe that outer space
exploration has much value.
The knowledge gained has
been enormous. However,
the price that has been paid
is enormous as well, in
human life and money.
So where do we go from
here?
I believe that the last true
frontier is discovering and
using the inner universe
that lives in each of our
hearts and spirits. The
exploration of our inner self
and values is sorely under-
developed at this time in
human history.
It is never too late to
become the person our
spiritual destiny calls us to
be. Age, breeding, educa-
tion, experience, privilege,
wealth or power have little
to do with it. Finding our
true self is a learned prac-
tice, just like developing
every other craft and skill
lying dormant within.
Bringing it out and setting it
free should be the No. 1
purpose of everyone alive
on Earth. No matter who we
are or what we have accom-
plished, there is always
room to grow if we truly
want it.
True riches live within the
heart and soul. There is a
saying, "Keep on doing what
you are doing now and you
will keep on having more of
the same of what you have
now.":
The starting key is to
change something.
I heard a story recently
about a young couple who
got married. On the first
YORLOA NW


anniversary, the loving wife
decided to cook dinner for
the family and friends to
celebrate the good fortune
bestowed. In the kitchen,
she went to work. Her
devoted husband pitched
in. They started by prepar-
ing a ham. She placed the
ham on the cutting board
and asked her beloved to
cut off the end. He did the
job as directed. Then the
ham and the end piece were
placed on the cooking tray
and safely tucked in the
oven. The husband, being of
inquisitive nature, asked,
"Why did you want the end
of the ham cut off?"
The wife replied, "That is
the way my mother always
did it."
Mother was at the cele-
bration. The young wife
called her into the kitchen
and asked, "Mother, why did
you always cut off the end of
the ham before cooking it?"
Mother said, "That's the
way your grandmother
always did it."
Grandmother was
brought into the kitchen
and asked the same ques-
tion.
"Oh, that's simple," she
replied. "I only had a small
pan."
There are eight simple
steps to creating true riches
within.
Step 1: Have the desire for
a better life.
You must want to get out
of the same old rut. Can you
relate?
Step 2: Make a goal to
change something.
When we set a goal, we set
a limit and create a bound-
ary. It's like saying, "This is
what I want. This is what I
am going to have." Some-
thing has to change.
Step 3: Take this new idea
and vision of what we want
and plant it by writing it
down.


JAMES TUCKER
The Spirit Guide
This grounds it in the
magical creative universal
energy. Electricity or seeds
won't sprout or grow unless
they are grounded. A
million dollar idea won't
sprout or grow if it isn't
written down and grounded
either.
Step 4: Speak it out loud.
This is the same as
watering a seed. This step
sends the energy out to
spirit for help in the creative
process.
Step 5: Intensify it.
Draw it or find pictures
that bring more detail, focus
and vision to the desire.
Then watch for the signs
that a blessing is upon the
idea and it is ready to give
birth.
Step 6: Fund the new idea
child.
Open a savings account in
its name. Start its life off
from abundance rather than
lack. The law of tithing
(tenfold return) will keep it
healthy always.
Step 7: Create harmony
with others who want to
help your idea child to grow
and help feed it.
This is the same as the
flowers in the garden
feeding each other from the
abundant energy and pollen
they give and receive back
multiplied to insure fertility,.

V E L Farewell to Mariner of the Seas
46 Day Round the Horn Cruise
SJan 4 Feb 19, 2009
Pt. Canaveral around South America to Los Angeles

Themed cruises unique experiences &pplMS adal


In early November, I had
a most wonderful and
unexpected cruise
experience.
Our company, along with
a local smooth jazz radio
station, sailed aboard Royal
Caribbean's Sovereign of
the Seas on a three-night
itinerary to the Bahamas.
The radio station secured
two incredible jazz artists,
New York headliner Matt
Marshak and guitarist, and
nationally acclaimed David
Wells of West Virginia.
They were joined by a
very talented bass player,
Kenny Harris of New York
-and Carl Anderson of
Baltimore, who mastered
both the drums and
keyboard.
What was really unique
was the artists (with the
exception of Marshak and
Harris) had never played
together before. They
actually met on board the
first day of the cruise.
Our cruise set sail from
Port Canaveral on Friday
afternoon and shortly after
pulling out of port, our
group of about 100 gath-
ered at a pre-dinner
cocktail party. The guys
were gracious and spoke
with great ease with many
of our group. The radio host
made announcements for
the two private concerts
that were scheduled for the
next two evenings. Then we
all headed to dinner. What
we all did not know is that
for the next two evenings
we would be part of
something truly special.
On Saturday, we arrived
in Nassau and many went
ashore, we (myself and two
other Gadabout Travel staff
members) stayed aboard in
the morning with the band


PATTY TOPPA
Travel columnist


for their first sound check.
It was not a difficult job
to just sit and listen to
these talented guys. The
evening concert was before
dinner and all arrived on
time. The music was
breathtaking. It was the
epitome of "smooth." We
came out of the concert
realizing we witnessed a
sound that was not really
heard before. What a
feeling!
Sunday evening's concert
was even more incredible.
We figured we would be
listening to some really
enjoyable laid-back jazz as
the first evening.
We were so wrong. Not
only was it lively with
people on the floor danc-
ing, but each musician
played a solo that blew us
away.
David Wells' rendition of
"Amazing Grace" on his
flugle horn was something
everyone should be able to
hear. It was flawless.
We were all a little late for
dinner as there were many
encores. Many of the other
passengers who happened
by the Voltage Lounge and
heard the sounds coming
from within wanted to get
in. It was a private concert


through the radio station
and only those who were
part of the group were
allowed.
The overall experience was
more than what the usual
three-night itinerary would
bring. If you want to experi-
ence all things on board and
on shore, you would be busy
as it is a jam-packed get-
away. Longer cruises tend to
be a little more laid back.
Theme cruises allow you
to take part in something
you are interested in.
Many cruise lines offer
theme cruises from "Fifties
and Sixties" and "Big Band"
to "Murder Mysteries" and
"Texas Hold 'Em."
Whatever your interest or
passion, there is usually a
cruise that can accommo-
date it.
Many luxury lines offer
enrichment programs,
such as on-board experts
from The Smithsonian,
wine sommeliers or
international culinary
experiences.
A theme cruise can be
just a group that is travel-
ing together and have
private gatherings, such as
the jazz cruise I wrote
about. Others can be a
half- or full-ship charter.
Most, though, are specific
to an agency and all
reservations must go
through the agency that is
handling all reservations.
Some cruise lines offer
themed itineraries with
some additional on board
activities that reflect the
theme.
Check out some of the
theme cruises that may be
available and you may
have a new cruise experi-
ence.
I know I am looking


forward to the second
annual Smooth Jazz Cruise
Feb. 13, 2009. I am a new
smooth jazz listener.

Pansies, snapdragons great for color


" ith the colder
winter weather
W upon us, and the
possibility of intermittent
freezing temperatures, we
want to plant annuals that
will need minimal care
during these cold snaps.

Pansies
Pansies are an excellent
choice, as they tolerate cold
temperatures and offer a
burst of color in your winter
garden. The scientific name
for these delicate treasures
is violax wittrockiana.
These plants look
extremely delicate, but
actually are fairly hardy in
regard to cold temperatures.
They are used in many
.different applications
including window boxes,
flowetbed borders, hanging
baskets, strawberry jars and
pots. Pansies can grow
.anywhere from 6 to 9 inches
and have a spread of about
9 to 12 inches.
Pansies are available in
many colors including
.white, yellow, gold, bronze,
rose and combinations of
the above listed colors.


JOE ZELENAK
Garden Nook


Pansies will grow in a
variety of different soils, but
using a rich, dark planting
medium, such as Miracle
Gro, will greatly enhance
the plant quality. The plants
will do best in an area that
gets some direct sunlight. If
the plants are in too much
shade, they will grow tall
and spindly.
Although pansies are,
fairly trouble free, there are
some insects that you need
to watch for. In our area,
aphids can be the biggest
problem along with snails.


Aphids can be treated with
Orthenex and snails can be
treated with any brand of
snail and slug control
pellets.
In conclusion, pansies
should not be planted in the
same soil for more than
three consecutive years.

Snapdragons
Another very popular
winter treat is an interesting
looking plant called the
snapdragon.
Snapdragons are one of
nature's examples of
splashing color and style.
These colorful gems come
in a wide assortment of
colors and varieties and
they are only available in
our area during the winter.
They are indeed a winter
treat. The flowers have a soft
scent and the plants come
in a variety of sizes, from
dwarf to some that will grow
as high as 4 feet. Since
snapdragons produce the
most blooms during cool
weather, right now is the
best time to purchase and
plant these colorful flowers.
Snapdragons are easy to


grow and do well in partial
shade or sun during
January and February. Place
plants in an area of the yard
that drains well and is not
completely shaded. Use a
high quality potting mix,
such as Miracle Gro, so your
plants can get a good start.
Using a good quality
potting soil also has the
advantage of promoting
good drainage while
retaining just enough
moisture so plants do not
dry out as easily between
watering. Fertilize the
plants on a regular basis, at
least once every two weeks.
Use a good quality water-
soluble fertilizer, such as
Miracle Gro or Peters.
I would like to take this
opportunity to wish every-
body a very HappyNew
Year! See you next week.

Landscaping on a Budget


A s a new homeowner
and a new Floridian,
have begun the
very daunting and pricey
task of installing a new
landscape.
Like most people, I cannot
afford to hire a profession-
al landscaper, and besides,
that would remove all of
the fun anyways!
Although I have always
said that gardening is a
trial and error project, that
sort of philosophy can get
expensive quickly. Howev-
er, by utilizing these few
simple tips outlined here,
you can save precious
money and resources.
First, analyze aNy existing
plant material that you -
inayhave. Do not begin by
removing everything all at
once. Can some things be
salvaged? Fertilizing,
trimming, or transplanting
an old plant may save time
and money.
Decide where the most
important area of the
landscape is located. For
most people, the area
located at the front of the
home is the place most
seen by others, and there-
fore, the most important.
But, it could be a private
backyard or a pool area.
Wherever the location, you
would want to spend the
majority of the budget in
this area. You can always
come back and plant other
areas later, but spreading
the budget evenly across
the entire property will
make it difficult to add
into.
One of the biggest
mistakes that inexperi-
enced gardeners make is
buying cheap plants.
Plants are no exception to
-the rule of getting what you
pay for. I have been guilty
of this myself. I thought I
was getting such a good
dewhen bought, a
ros6bush offthe sale cart
for three dollars. Not true.
When it was all said and
done, I had spent more
tinie, energy, water, and
fertilizer trying to revive
the poor little guy than I
would have buying two of
his healthy counterparts.
You do not have to buy
the most expensive plant,
but you should buy quality
plants.
Who doesn't want an
instant landscape? It is so
rewarding to step away
from a day of working in
the yard and feel as if you
have accomplished some-
thing. Stepping away from
your long day and seeing a
yard that looks empty is
less than exciting. Another
one of the traps I have
fallen into is over-planting.
This is one of the biggest
problems that I see in both


but it is like expecting a
two year old to act like an
adult. Give your plants
room and time to grow,
and you can save money
on plants and later mainte-
nance associated with
pruning.
Maintenance costs are
another thing that adds up
substantially in the long
run. Choose smaller,
slower growing species
instead of the larger, faster
growing ones that can
eventually make a home
landscape appear over-
grown.
Also, use mulch around
your plIants for an attrac-
tive way to save money.
Mulch stores water, which
reduces the need for excess
irrigation, and it inhibits
weed growth eliminating
the need for herbicide use

in the landscape. These
affects associated with
mulch are also good for the
environment.
Perhaps the most impor-
tant tip to remember is
also the most basic.
Choosing the right plant
for the right place can save
more money than any
other landscaping practice.
Make sure that the plants
you are installing are
appropriate for their
specific location.

Turtletrax campaign helps open doors


BY BARBARA YORESH
Entertainment writer

It's not a question of trying
to figure out what's behind
door number one, two or
three but rather an artisti-
cally beautiful way for a
United Way Agency to bring
community awareness to
mental health issues.
Turtletrax 2008: Opening
Doors-Changing Lives is this
season's campaign of public
art at the Mental health
Association in Indian River
County in partnership with
the Cultural Council of
Indian River County.
Area residents are proba-
bly already familiar with the
much-beloved six-foot
fiberglass turtles that artists
creatively decorated which


were auctioned and placed
throughout the community.
The project was launched
in 2004 to raise awareness
about mental health issues
and to reduce the stigma
often associated with
mental illness. The MHA
wants residents to know
that "it's okay to ask for
help."
MHA Executive Director
Kris Sarkauskas notes that
the artistic project to
promote mental health
awareness an important
component of an overall'
approach.
"It's all about mind, body
and spirit and art is a part of
that," Ms. Sarkauskas said.
"We want to do awareness
events and fundraisers for
everyone in the community.


We're here for everyone."
She explained that the
MHA takes a "holistic
approach" to assisting those
in need and "we work with
the entire family."
"My goal is to stamp out
the stigma (of mental
illness," Ms. Sarkauskas
said.
This year's campaign is
taking expanded and new
"trax." Several months ago
an official "call to artists"
was advertised, according to
Lee Moore, chairman of the
artistic jury who screened
applications from artists
who wished to participate.
In 2005, more than 50
highly decorated turtles
were auctioned. Currently
there are 26 turtles who
have found permanent


homes throughout the
county.
. This year's theme will
feature another, equally
unique "canvas" for artists
to decorate doors.
Eighteen seven-foot doors
including five, which are
antique and taken from
historic homes will be
painted and auctioned.
Seven three-foot turtles
and 60 eighteen-inch
cobblestones will also be
decorated by participating
artists.
All the pieces will be
painted with themes
representing Hope,
Courage, Balance, Play,
Renewal and Grace and will
be shown at the 2008

TurtleTrax community
Festival & Art Exhibit at
Riverside Park on Saturday,
Feb. 23.
The works will subse-
quently be auctioned at a
Gala Auction and Concert,
"An Evening with Judy
Collins," to be held Satur-
day, April 5 at the Riverside
Theatre. All proceeds from
the event will benefit the
MHA.
There are doors and then
there are doors. And, no,
we're not referring to
defunct Rock 'n Roll groups.
Some of the doors to be
painted and decorated
were taken from a historic
three-story home in
Savannah, Georgia built in
1846. The home's owner,
Israel Keech Tefft, was
editor and owner of a
Georgian newspaper and a
former banker and consid-
ered to be one of Savan-
nah's leading citizens and
patron of the "literati."
Tefft's passion for history
inspired him to collect rare
and valuable autographs
including those of Queen
Victoria, John Quincy
Adams, Andrew Jackson
and Daniel Webster.
One door to the room that
held Tefft's collection is
included in this year's
artistic project and is made
of cypress that in 1846 had
been taken from 300-year-
old wood.
The historic doors for this
project were donated to the
MHA byVero Beach
resident/entrepreneur and
Savannah developer
Thomas Kale and his
partner Paul Scarborough
of CSA Design and Devel-
opment who is an accom-
plished artist himself.
The partners purchased
the Tefft home in 2005 and
have renovated it into three
luxury condominims, rpqW


on the Historic Register.
Mr. Scarborough will
decorate one of the historic
doors for the project. Mr.
Kale said he is eager to see
what the artists will create
in painting and decorating
the doors.
"I think they'll create a
uniqueness that will further
enhance the value of the
doors. I felt totally thrilled
to use these doors," he said.
Mr. Kale expressed a great
appreciation for the work
done by the MHA and
noted that his sister,
already an attorney; went
back to school to become a
psychologist and is now
completing her internship
at the state's psychiatric
hospital.
"I'll do what I can to
contribute to this. Mental
health issues do not
discriminate and you don't
have an option of when or
if it will hit you or not," Mr.
Kale said.
Ms. Moore an artist
herself-- noted that all the
artists contributing to this
endeavor each has their
own "story" and reason why
mental health is such an
important issue for them.
Some, she said, have gone
through tribulations and
difficulties that left them
particularly appreciative of
this project for mental
health.
"It's all about awareness
for mental health. Every-
body is touched by mental
health issues. I'm so crazy
about the MHA and excited
to get involved with this at
the organizational level.
These are an awesome
group of people," Ms.
Moore said.
According to Ms. Moore,
each artist participating in
the project was asked to
use one or more theme
scenes in their depiction.
Artists were given a $400
stipend to pay for art
materials but otherwise are
not compensated for the
!,,r ks, tey .create.,,


Although all artworks are
not due to be turned in
until Jan. 15, Ms. Moore
said that one particularly
beautiful piece already
submitted is a turtle
created out of a mosaic of
broken china that con-
tained gold embellishment.
"It's called 'Picking Up the
Pieces' and it's just gor-
geous. In the light just
shines from the gold," Ms.-
Moore said.
Door artist Michael Enns
is nationally known and
worked with iconic pop
artist Andy Warhol for 15
years. His work is owned by
Vero Beach resident and
best-selling author Carl
Hiassen.

Brother
From page B4
Taylor's debut album,
'Livingston Taylor,'included
an original song- 'Carolina
Day' that would become
the hallmark of his intimate,
crowd-pleasing musical style.
Mr. Taylor just made it look
and sound so easy.
He recorded two other,
moderately selling albums
with Capricorn Records
before switching to another
label, which in 1978 released
his 'Three Way Mirror' album.
Mr. Taylor promoted the
album by touring as the
opening act for Linda
Ronstadt and his brother
would later cover one of the
album's cuts on his own
album.
In the early 1980s, Epic
records released a second
album entitled 'Man's Best
Friend.'
Mr. Taylor also became the
host of a nationally syndicat-
ed television show, This
Week's Music, and began his
stint teaching at the Berklee
College of Music where he is a
professor teaching a class on
stage performance.
In 1988, his sixth album,
'Life is Good, was released.
His popularity with audi-
ences made him much in
demand for live performanc-
es. But his recording sessions


were actually increasing and
during the decade of the
1990s, he released seven
albums including two live
concert recordings.
The dawn of a new century
didn't slow Mr. Taylor a bit.
In 2000, he became artist-
in-residence at Lowell House
at Harvard University.
However, living in a 350-
square foot dorm space
ultimately became claustro-
phobic and he now enjoys
living in a Boston-area condo
that accommodates his large
piano and retains his affilia-
tion with Harvard.
A second retrospective
album was released in 2005
followed by an album of
entirely new material entitled
'ThereYou Are Again.'
When asked to define
himself musically, Mr. Taylor
said, "I like to think of myself
as a traditional pop
singer/songwriter."
Hinting at those times in his
life when he dealt with
internal struggles, he said
music has grounded him.
"When my confidence is
high and it's not always I
would compare my songs to
"Broadway-esque. They tell a
story and there is lots of
melody. I'm a very lyrical guy.
"I found that music has
been an anchor for me a
stabilizing place for me and it
has allowed me to live what
appeared to be a disheveled

life with traveling as much as I
do. I have an anchor of
tonality that I come back to,"
hw said.
When asked about the
factors that make someone a
success in the music industry,
Mr. Taylor doesn't hesitate in
his response.
"Tenacity trumps talent -
always. Success doesn't
(always) go to the lucky or the
talented it goes to the
tenacious, although I think
tenacious people are lucky,"
Mr. Taylor said.
He further explained that he
and even super-stars, such as
his brother, or Madonna "do
an endless array of things to
have the career" that they
have.
"The assumption of a great
career is often just that -
assumption," he said, adding
that pure, hard work and a
willingness to do it at many
levels are the reality for those
who "make it."
Speaking to Mr. Taylor
revealed an individual with a
most uncommon willingness
to also listen to and share
ideas with others.
"I love listening to what
everyone wants to say. All our
life is that and I love the idea
of negotiation. I never, ever
come to any negotiation with
the idea that what you're
saying is outrageous. I'm
willing to negotiate from a
weak position as well as from
a strong one," he said.
However, he draws the line
at compromising his ethical
and moral beliefs.
'A life well-lived under-
stands there is no request a
human can make that is
unreasonable. But sometimes
it is beyond my moral sense
and I cannot acquiesce to
them. I might respect your
thought process, but it's not
going to happen on my
watch," he said.
Mr. Taylor said he believed
conflict happens when
communication between
parties breaks down.
"Wars happen when an
impasse is reached and
negotiation is not possible,"
he said.
He counts among his
friends those with strong t|
liberal as well as conservative
leanings.
"I've noticed that none of
them ever eat their babies,"
he said with a laugh. "We all
want the same thing," he said.
Regarding his place in the
musical realm, Mr. Taylor said
he has always been a "niche"
performer, known perhaps by
10 to 20 million of the earth's
6.5 billion inhabitants.
He said that each genera-


tion "sops up" the music of its
particular era in a way that
bonds adolescents and
usually alienates the older
generation.
Mr. Taylor observed that the
teen years are the time in
which young people are
moving away from the core
family into the world at large
and finding a peer group with
whom they'll identify for the
rest of their lives.
"They find a musical
tonality that allows them to
bond together and at the
same time alienate the older
generations. By its very
definition, it (the music) can't
be accessible to us (the older
generation). The same thing
will happen to them as they
get older," He said as a logical
answer to that age-old
question: "what's the matter
with kids today?"
Mr. Taylor said when he
encounters young people
listening to music he doesn't
"get," he asks them for an
explanation.
"I ask them to help me out
here. I'm not understanding
the tonality of what you're
hearing," he said.
In addition to his prowess
on the guitar, he also loves the
piano.
"I always loved the piano
and thought playing it in my
80s would be much more
dignified. I really don't like the
look of older people playing
the guitar!" he said with a
laugh.
In addition to frequently
playing the piano during a
portion of his concerts,-Mr.
Taylor said he derives
satisfaction just playing for
himself.
"I love doing my own
original material but I'm also
delighted to express the
creativity of others when I'm
at the keyboard alone," he
said.
Much of that material
would qualify as old "stan-
dards" of either popular or
even classical music, he said.
As to "messages" in the
music of today or past eras, he
said that younger
singer/songwriters tend to
focus on themes of .
malS*flialleihteractlot4. :.n
"Yourinost successful songs
are of reproduction. The vast
preponderance is about
domesticity and reproduc-
tion. Does any life form really
have any other purpose?" he
said with mock seriousness.
"It's all about returning
home it's a compelling
theme where I can raise a
family," Mr. Taylor said,

followed 5y a few sung bars of
the Crosby, Stills & Nash
classic "Our House."
"The themes of home, duty,
honor and to party are the
themes people return to," he
added.
And what do you want to
say, Mr. Taylor was asked.
"The themes I speak about
these days are of someone in
their50s. I've recently written
two songs called "Never Lose
Hope" and "Best of Friends."
I love being able to visit
themes that are compelling
to my contemporaries and
what I love to tell people is
that I love the way they live
their lives. I find people to be
remarkable in their level of
civility and integriy striving
to be the best human beings


they can be. The preponder-
ance of 6.5 billion (people)
behave in a very decent way.
The norm is stunningly
decent and good," He said.
Mr. Taylor is unquestion-
ably a "people" person who
believes in the inherent
worth and kindness of most
individuals. He also takes his
musical cues from them to
form a program for his
concerts.
"When I see the room I'm in
and the people coming to
hear me it informs me of
what my show should be. The
list of songs always gets
tweaked and I make my final
decision when I'm on stage,
Mr. Taylor said.
This talented, compassion-
ate, intelligent and humorous
entertainer will have his
musical "say" on Saturday, ,
Jan. 12, at 7:30 p.m. at the
Waxlax Center for the


Performing arts at 1895 St.
Edward's Drive and South

The day prior to his per-
formance, he will don his

Edward's students at a

to enlighten, entertain and
inspire.

Quick chicken meals can warm the heart on cooler days


H ello, smart shoppers.
I hope you had a
good week.
Are you ready for some
delicious, good-for-you
meals? How about chicken-
in the pot? It's a stew with
whole pieces of chicken and
vegetables in a rich broth.
Serve it with low-fat bis-
cuits. I use low-fat biscuit
mix and top them with a
low-fat butter substitute
and a drizzling of honey. It's
wonderful, satisfying and


easy to make, from the stove
to the table in less than 40
minutes
Another variation of this
recipe is chicken and
dumplings.
Enjoy. See you next week.

1 whole chicken, cut up
or any pieces you choose

"The message for women is
simple: Be good to yourself in
the New Year take a multi-
vitamin with folic acid every-
day, in addition to a healthy
diet," said Leslie Spurlock.
Women especially need folic
acid, even if not planning to
become pregnant. Taking folic
;acid ,before ,pregnancy
reduces the risk of Spina Bifi-,
da and other serious birth
defects up to 70 percent.
Hispanic babies are 1.5 to 2
times more likely than others
in the U.S.'to be born with a
neural tube defect like Spina
Bifida.
The CDC reports that Lati-
nas in the United States con-


sume the least amount of folic
acid and have the least knowl-
edge about folic acid among
racial or ethnic groups in this
country.

YOUTH ACTIVITIES & SPORTS


Dawson becomes Central figure for Cobras|


BY JOHN MACDONALD
Sports writer
When James Dawson
played in his last basket-
ball game for Vero Beach
it was against one of the
Indians' local rivals.
"It was against Fort
Pierce Central, which we
lost," Dawson said.
As with any defeat, the
game left a bad taste in
Dawson's mouth espe-
cially since the game was
in his hands.
"We were down one
with nine seconds left,"
Dawson said. "One guy
fouled me with four sec-
onds left.
"I bricked the back end
of the first one and then I
missed the second."
One of Dawson's team-
mates had a chance at the
rebound, but came up
short, as Central moved
on while Vero Beach went
lhb'me.
"Back then they only
took one team out of the
district," Dawson said. "I
remember being sad.
"Central was a rival
team so you always find
ways to dislike, the, team


that you have a rivalry
with," Dawson said.
Nearly two decades
later, the team that ended
Dawson's high school
tenure prematurely, the
35-year-old is now in
charge of bringing to new
heights.
"Now, my biggest con-
cern and concentration is
to turn Central into one
of the best programs in
the state," Dawson said.
If the start of this season
is any indication, Dawson
is off to a good start. The
Cobras opened the sea-
son with a 79-52 shellack-
ing of Pahokee. Bayside
didn't fare any better, as
Central came away with a
68-57 decision while gar-
nering its first district tri-
umph of the year.
Central's hot start con-
tinued with back-to-back
wins over city rivals John
Carroll and Lincoln Park
- each by double digits.
Okeechobee then fell vic-
tim as well, this time by
26 points as the Cobras
moved to a perfect 5-0.
"We started out red
hot," Dawson said.
Central then faced


Sebastian River, the team
that ousted the Cobras
from the District 13-5A
playoffs a season earlier.
Central held a late lead,
but Sebastian won on a
last-second shot to steal
the win.
Since then, the Cobras
have struggled, going 3-2
and giving Dawson his
first real test as a boys'
head basketball coach.
"My expectation for us
is to be a hard-nosed
defensive team," Dawson
said. "I have kids willing
to play, but we're not
there yet."
Not surprisingly, play-
ing solid defense is one of
the hallmarks of Chuck
Loewendicks' Vero Beach
teams. Dawson played for
"Coach Loew" from 1989
to 1991 and later coached
under the legend from
1999 to 2000.
"Coach Loew gave me
my first opportunity to
coach," Dawson said. "I
was at one of the spring
games for Vero and me
and coach Loew were
talking and he said he was
looking for a coach.
"He said it would be
nice if you would come
back and coach for me,..
"My heart was saying,
go coach."
Dawson's tenure with
Vero could not have come
at a more opportune
time. 1 Loewendick had
assembled some of the
best talent in Vero Beach
history and the team
responded with a trip to
the Final Four.
The Indians would
make it all the way to the
championship game
before losing to Dillard
58-37.
"I still don't think that I
coached in a champi-
onship game," Dawson
said. "It was a great expe-
rience, coaching against
good teams."
After another one-year
stint, this time as an
assistant football coach
for Daytona Beach


Seabreeze, Dawson
accepted his first head
coaching post, taking
over the girls' basketball
team at Lake Wales High
School.
"That was one of the
best opportunities as a
coach to hbne my skills,"
Dawson said. "All the girls
I got were first time bas-

"I had to be creative."
Dawson and the High-
landers experienced
some grqwirg pains that
season, going 7-18 in
Dawson's inaugural cam-
paign. Dawson knew that
if the team were to reach
the level he wanted for
them, the players would
have to put in extra work
in the gym.
"The girls committed
that summer," Dawson
said. "Four days a week,
the girls bought into
that."
The additional time
yielded huge dividends,
as the team reversed its
mark with an 18-7 record.
"That was the most joy-
ous success I ever had,"
Dawson said. "I won
coach of the year in that
county."
Dawson made two more
stops before landing at
Central. The Cobras' run
to open the season has
impressed many area
observers, including his
mentor and former
coach.
"He's doing a great job
there," Loewendick said.
"That's one of their best
starts in a while.
"I want them to win
every game, except the
one they play against us."
Dawson will have his
first chance to match wits
with his teacher Jan. 24
when the Cobras travel to
Vero Beach. r
"He's like a father figure?
to me," Dawson said. "I
know he's there if I need
him, more than just in a
basketball sense.

'star-studded, outdoor
wrestling show at the 4,500-

Earlier this month, the
-NH's Buffalo Sabres and
Pittsburgh Penguins thrilled
a crowd of 71,000 at Ralph
Wr Vilson Stadium in Buffalo,
4N.Y. to a one-of-a-kind out-

the Penguins 2-1 in an over-

While next week's "Bash"

"This will be the biggest
event for us, yet," Richman
added. "We'll be setting up
about 1,000 ringside seats.
That-gives you an idea of

******************************************
Et E. :m a *


very other January, the
U.S. Golf Association
revises the rules of
golf.
Today, I would like to add
my own set of rules for our
game.
According to recent
statistics from the National
Golf Foundation, our game
is not growing as we had
hoped. In fact, we are seeing
more golfers leaving the
game than coming to it.
With my new rules, I hope
to stop this downward spiral
and make our game more
appealing to the masses.
Golf is the only major
sport where the highest
score doeg not win. I believe
that to be competitive with
our other favorite sports, we
need to adjust our scoring
methods. We need higher
scores, not lower. We
Americans seem to despise
low scores.
For instance, take a look
at how popular soccer is
here. I rest my case.
My new rules for golf will
get rid of our traditional
system of counting the
number of times we hit the
ball and adding strokes to
that when we do something
wrong.
With my rules, the highest
score wins! You'll still need
to count strokes, but only
points awarded for playing
the hole will be counted.
If you arrive at the course
at least 30 minutes before
your scheduled tee time,

Bash


give yourself a point. If you
hit a few balls or practice a
putt or two before heading
to the first tee, you get a
bonus point. Arrive at the
first tee with more than 5
minutes to spare before
you're scheduled to tee off
and you've earned another
point.
You haven't even hit the
first ball and you have the
potential to be three points
ahead of your lazy partners.
There's nothing like being
rewarded for being punctual.
When it's your turn to take
the.tee, if you already have
your club selected, and a
ball and tee in hand, give
yourself another point. I
love ready golf!
If you do not tee your ball
up in front of the tee
markers, you're entitled to a
point. Take fewer than two
practice swings and you'll
be rewarded yet another.
If your drive lands in the
fairway, you get a point.
Longest drive, in the fairway
in your group gets you a
bonus point. If you hit the
green in regulation, that's
another two points. Miss,
but get on in few enough
strokes to have a put for par,
and you've earned a point.
Of course, there have to
be penalties for those bad
shots. With my rules,
instead of adding strokes,
you simply subtract points.
Hit a ball out-of-bounds-
and you simply place the
ball where it went out, and

subtract a point. You may
even get that point back
with a great recovery and a
putt for par.
A ball hit into a water
hazard earns no point
penalty. Why? Because you
just lost that expensive ball
on the course. That is
penalty enough!
We've all had those times
when our best drive landed
in an un-repaired or un-
sanded divot. Not an easy
shot and pretty crummy
luck. With my rules, if you
advance the ball to within
20 yards of the green from
that line, you get a bonus
point. Hit the green with the
shot, and you get another!
Now to make sure that no
one else gets those bonus
points, golfers will be happy
to fill in their divots. The
same goes on the green
when putting over ball
marks. If you have a ball

During an aerial maneuver
against Scott Steiner in the
main event at Sin 2001 in
Indianapolis, Indiana.
The broken leg was just
the latest in a string of
wrestling-related injuries
the durable Eudy has
worked through in his
career.
"I've had half a lung
removed, the vertebrae in
my neck fused and surgery
on a torn bicep," he said in a
telephone interview last
week. "But, the leg injury is
100 percent healed."
Eudy said getting back in
the ring was never in ques-
tion after the latest injury.
"I didn't Want it taken away
from me like that," he said of
his 24 years in the business.
"I wanted to prove I still
have what it takes, and I
think I've done that. Plus, it's
a lot of fun."
While he and Tatanka have
never wrestled against each
other, the two have worked
the same venues.
"I don't know much about
him," he said of his oppo-
nent in the main event. "He's
a good wrestler, but, to be
honest, I don't see it going
well for him in this match.
It's going to be tough on
him. I've put myself in a
position to do something
big, and when they leave,
people will say 'this guy's for
real. He's physical, he's
tough and he's somebody
you don't want to mess
with.'"
A descendant of the Lum-
bee tribe, Tatanka, whose
name means "bull buffalo"
was born Chris Chavis in
Pembroke N.C.
He made his WWF debut
in 1991 and soon ran up an
undefeated streak lasting
nearly two years, taking
down marquee names such
as Rick Martel and Shawn
Michaels along the way.
Known for his Lumbee
tribal war cry and toma-
hawk chop, Tatanka, 46, left
the WWE in 1996.
He returned to action full-
time in December 2005,
teaming with Shelton Ben-


mark in your way and your
ball hits it and still goes in,
you've earned a bonus
point. Again, you'll be likely
to fix more than one of
those nasty scars just to
keep anyone else from
picking up that same bonus.
We all hate bunker shots.
How many times have you
taken two or three to get the
ball out of one of them?
With my new rules, you get
a bonus point for every sand
save. This should encourage
you to practice those shots
and work on that short
game a little.
Anyone seen leaving the
bunker and not raking it,
will lose a point from his or
her score. Those things are
tough enough already.
At the end of the day,
you'll find yourself adding
points and winding up with
a score that resembles a
triple-overtime NBAAll-Star
game score. That should
make everyone happy.
Now, go apply my new
rules, or even make a few up
yourself, and see if we can
better enjoy our great game
and bring a few more new
golfers along for the ride.
Just remember the
batteries for the calculator.

The 6-foot-l-inch, 258-
pound Chavis had a chance
at a career with the Miami
Dolphins, but, according to
his bio on Wikipedia.com,
the NFL franchise's 1987
offer was less than what he
was making at a local health
spa.
Chavis said the size
advantage enjoyed by Eudy
is all in the minid.
"Preparing yourself men-
tally is the first step," he
said. "You must avoid
opportunities where Sid can
use his strength against you.
(You) work on his legs and
get him to the mat. When
you get someone to the mat,
it is a totally different game.
This is where you go to work
with guys like Sid."
With the stage set for an
epic battle of two ring
giants, Chavis said to count
on a great battle.
"I will enter the ring as a
warrior representing a
whole nation of people,
being Native Americans," he
said. "And, you can rest
assured this Native Ameri-
can will be bringing the bat-
tle to Sid."
