State College of Florida — formerly Manatee Community College — has 12,026 students enrolled collegewide this fall term at its three campuses (Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch and Venice) and via eCampus. SCF Venice has 3,395 students, an increase of 22 percent over last fall’s enrollment. Kathy Walker, SCF director of public affairs and market- ing, said the Venice campus’ latest enrollment numbers “(show) significant increases from all communities closest to our Venice campus.” The breakdown of students attend- ing from North Port has increased by 22 percent since 2008, and students coming from both Port Charlotte and Venice has increase by 13.5 percent. There also has been a 12-percent increase in the number of Englewood stu- dents taking classes at the campus. SCF officials don’t know yet if spring semester numbers will continue their upward trend. “Historically, the spring term enrollment at most col- leges dips slightly from the fall,” said Jessica Klipa, SCF’s public information coordina- tor. “It’s too early to project if that will be the case at SCF this spring, considering the econo- my and the excitement about our new programs.” The first cohort of the new school’s bachelor of science in nursing program — the col- lege’s first four-year program — starting in January, will have 50 students, 25 at the Venice campus and 25 at the Bradenton campus. Designed to allow registered nurses to complete their bachelor’s degree locally in 15 months, the program couples experi- ence with advanced nursing education, preparing students for roles in leadership, man- agement and community and public health. In August, State College of Florida, Manatee-Sarasota was the second fastest-growing college in the 28-member Florida College System for the 2008-09 academic year, according to a recent report from the Florida Department of Education.

The economy is still in rough shape, though signs of a recovery are sprouting. Houses are selling, albeit at much lower prices. Realtors report the credit situation is better, and people are still optimistic enough to be open- ing new businesses and pur- suing the American dream. Still, a number of businesses — even some well-estab- lished ones — that began the year are no longer around. Although 12 more months have passed, the city still does- n’t have a new comprehensive plan or airport master plan in place, though progress has been made. A draft comp plan has been submitted to the state and returned for revision; council has scheduled public hearings on it for later this month. Workshops have been held on the airport and a possible compromise suggested: The city would agree to maintain both runways at their full length if the Federal Aviation Administration would agree to demote it to a “B” airport. The FAA has been cool toward that action but is waiting to see a draft plan before making a decision. An action filed with the FAA by Burton Wiand, receiver of the estate of accused Ponzi schemer Art Nadel, is still pending. Nadel, the co-owner of theVenice Jet Center, awaits trial on fraud charges in New York as the city ponders its position on the imminent sale of the business — and the additional hangars it may or may not be entitled to build. The Sunshine Lawsuit against the city was finally resolved after more than a year when Circuit Judge Robert Bennett awarded plaintiff Anthony Lorenzo’s attorneys more than $750,000 in fees and costs. With the money paid to the city’s attor- neys and the private attor- neys some council members hired, the total bill was well more than $1 million. The city also settled its long dispute over the revised Sharky’s lease, as well as a law- suit arising out of its ordinance regulating short-term rentals and a zoning decision that gave rise to a claim of an infringement of property rights in the Discovery Village project planned opposite Pelican Pointe along Hatchett Creek Boulevard. Each settlement involved a payout from city coffers, and none of them helped when it came time to balance the city budget. Council pulled it off, but had to tap into reserves to do it, and was fortunate that city employee unions “took one for the team” by adopting a concilia- tory tone in negotiations.

Just be sure to prepare thetree first.
“Remove all the decorations.If the tree is taller than six feet,
cut it in half,” Alexander said.“Take the tree out of any plasticbags you may have used toremove it from your home, andplace it at the curb.”
All trees are mulched at the
landfill. Some are also compost-ed for use as natural fertilizer.Leftover gift wrap goes in thegarbage.

Lewis said NadiaKashitskaya, 25, violatedtwo city policies by notsending an officer tocheck on the well-beingof Brian Wood, 55, whocrashed his Chevy trucklate Dec. 11 in a desolate,wooded area on LoveringAvenue in North PortEstates.
Mark Mininci Jr., 19,who originally called 911at 11:36 p.m. when hesaw Wood slumped overon the ground next to his
truck, returned morethan 18 hours later andfound Wood still there.He went to a nearbyhouse and asked resi-dents there to call 911again.
Police responded andfound Wood, the long-time owner of SuncoastV-Twin motorcycle repairin North Port, was dead.
“Ms. Kashitskaya vio-lated department policyby not following man-dates as to asking thebasic questions as statedin our Telephone Pro-cedures Policy and wasnegligent in her jobduties by not sending anofficer to either meetwith the caller or to thearea where the callerdescribed seeing a manoutside his truck,” Lewissaid during a Tuesdaypress conference.
Lewis, who hiredKashitskaya, said judgingthe dispatcher by theshort snippet of the 911recording doesn’t showher overall job perfor-mance.
“Ms. Kashitskaya wasan excellent employee,but she made a mistake,”he said, his voice crack-ing. “I am sorry to thefamily of Brian Wood ...We have the highestresponsibility to the citi-zens of North Port.”
Citizen safety andconfidence in the 911system is paramount,Lewis said. He asked twooutside agencies to stepin to review training pro-cedures at the NPPD,including the Associa-tion of Public SafetyC o m m u n i c a t i o n [email protected]

“It’s never a fishingexpedition for citizens orthe news media to exer-cise a constitutional rightto know what their gov-
ernment is up to,” shesaid. “The EDC has beenfunded almost entirelyby taxpayers. Why dothey want to hide theirrecords from those whoare funding their bud-get?”

The Board of Directorsof the Economic Devel-opment Corp. of SarasotaCounty will decide howto respond to a lawsuitseeking the corporation’srecords, EDC presidentand CEO Kathy Baylissaid Monday.
The case was officiallyfiled Monday and hasbeen assigned to CircuitJudge Charles Roberts inNorth County, accordingto court staff. Roberts willtake over Division Ccases beginning the firstof the new year.
EDC attorney Jeffrey S.Russell of Shumaker,Loop and Kendrick LLPreceived a copy of thepetition Monday morn-ing in which Citizens forSunshine, a nonprofitorganization, asks the12th Judicial CircuitCourt for an acceleratedhearing on the issue andthat it issue a show-causeorder to the EDC as towhy the requested rec-ords need not be pro-duced.
Baylis said after shereceived a duplicate fromRussell, she passed on acopy to board memberswho are in the process ofreviewing it. She said sheexpects the board to dis-cuss the lawsuit at itsmeeting on Feb. 18, but
“if we have to do an extraboard meeting, we’ll doan extra board meeting.”
At issue are EDCrecords that Citizens forSunshine, represented byattorney Andrea Mogen-sen of Sarasota, says arepublic records, includingpossible correspondencewith county officials.However, Baylis said,Russell’s opinion is thatthe EDC is not subject topublic records requests.
Russell’s opinion isincluded in an Aug. 7 e-mail response fromBaylis to Citizens forSunshine after the orga-nization requested meet-ing notices and minutesof the EDC Board ofDirectors, meeting no-tices of EDC committeesand the contractbetween the EDC boardand Sarasota County.
Russell said Mondaythe Florida SupremeCourt has found “thestatute provides no clearcriteria for determiningwhen a private entity is‘acting on behalf of apublic agency.’” He citeda case, the News andSun-Sentinel Co. v.Schwab, Twitty & HanserArchitectural Group Inc.,in which the court listsnine criteria to help pri-vate entities that receivepublic funds determine ifthey are subject to thePublic Records Act.
Those criteria are: thelevel of public funding,commingling of funds,whether the activity wasconducted on publiclyowned property, whethercontracted services arean integral part of a deci-sion-making process,whether the private enti-ty is performing a gov-ernmental function andothers.
On its Web site, theEDC describes itself as“the organization coordi-nating Sarasota County’seconomic developmentstrategy and tactics.” Itstotal budget in fiscal year2009 was more than $1.6million. Of that sum, $1.2million came as com-pensation from thecounty while approxi-mately $387,000 was tocome from the EDC asmatching funds.
“This discussion (ofwhether records are pri-vate) is also being held atthe state level,” Baylissaid. “I think here we’re alittle concerned we’resetting a precedent fororganizations like us.We’re being thoughtfulabout any steps we take.”
Baylis also called theEDC’s operations “veryopen.”
Mogensen said Citi-zens for Sunshine wantsto review EDC recordsbecause “the EDCperforms a significant

once yougOyou get it
Stay home. I would like toturn the TV on sometime andnot see the president runningdown the steps returning fromsomewhere, God knowswhere, at the expense of thetaxpayers. Does he ever stay inthe White House where he waselected to be?
Frightful. I’m calling about“Should the city withdrawfrom the International Coun-cil for Local EnvironmentalInitiatives?” I say no, it shouldnot withdraw. We should notbe afraid of foreigners.
UNhappy. Should the citywithdraw from ICLEI? If it hasanything to do with the U.N.or the Climate Control Ini-tiative, I say we should with-draw. They run too much ofour country the way it is.
Thanks, I think. I wonder ifthat manager at Target relent-ed and sold that Christmastree out of the goodness of herheart or was she fearful of badpublicity? I’ll give her the ben-efit of my doubt.
Have a heart. What kind ofmiracle at Target? If the man-ager really had a heart, the treewould have been donated tothis grieving family. Bah-hum-bug to Target and the manag-er.
Spruced up. The Back inTime picture of the teacherand student dedicating theflagpole shows how nicely theteacher was dressed. Today,teachers wear the same kindof clothes as students. I
noticed the suit the teacherwore and how her appearancewould command attentionand respect. In my day, menwere required to wear a shirtand tie and either a jacket orsweater. They didn’t look likeone of the kids.
No support. Thank you forbringing this group to ourattention (ICLEI—Local Gov-ernments for Sustainability,Gondolier Sun, Dec. 26). Thisis just the beginning of inroadsto world government and con-trol. We must resist UnitedNations attempts to usurp oursovereignty. Venice should notbe supporting this group from
outside our country using ourtax dollars without our per-mission.
Helpful. I’d like to expressan opinion about ICLEI-USA.ICLEI is a membership organi-zation which Venice belongsto. It’s not Hickley Inter-national that we belong to andthis organization does nothave ties to the UnitedNations. The fear of some kindof international control I thinkis unwarranted. Hickley pro-vides very, very importantmonitoring information andsoftware in ways that helplocal governments, like Venice,monitor our energy use. It’svery beneficial to the econom-ics of our city as well as tolower our dependence on for-eign oil. It helps us to be a sus-tainable city and we need tobelong to this organization.
Postal thanks. A specialthank you to the Venice postalemployee who delivered a let-ter without a house number toour address. The street namewas written on the envelope,but no house number. Thanksfor the good job, over andbeyond the call of duty.
Withdraw. Yes, you defi-nitely should withdraw fromthe Al Gore inspired thingabout (ICLEI membership).There’s absolutely no reasonthat North Port or Venice orany place in Sarasota or Lee orCharlotte County should beinvolved with the U.N.Climate Control Initiatives.After suffering through 50degree weather, I don’t believethat there is any global warm-ing. My friends up North inPennsylvania, who are suffer-ing through 24 inches of snowbefore winter even started,don’t believe there is any suchthing as global warming. As amatter of fact, they thinkthere’s global cooling. Who inthe hell decided to make theseideas about global warming?Give it a break!

OUR VIEW
Districts are about people, not powerf you want to get an idea of theabsurdity of political districting,you need only take a look in your
backyard.Florida’s 16th Congressional
District begins in Charlotte County,curls into Hendry County, aroundLake Okeechobee to Fort Pierce, thenskips down the Atlantic Coast toJupiter and Palm Beach. With all thebends and curves, it’s a wonder Rep.Tom Rooney doesn’t get car sick whenhe’s out visiting constituents.
Or take a look as Sen. MikeBennett’s state Senate District 21,which starts in his home-base ofManatee County, then swoops east-ward into DeSoto and Charlottecounties before swinging back towardthe Gulf in Lee County.
The examples of laughably weirddistrict boundaries go on and on.There’s U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown’sDistrict 3, which crosses nine coun-ties from Jacksonville to Pine Hills, for
many miles is only a thin strip ofpolitical connective tissue. Or FloridaHouse District 55, which extendsfrom St. Petersburg south in a thinstrip over the Sunshine Skywaythough Manatee and into SarasotaCounty.
A coalition of public interestgroups under the umbrella ofFairDistrictsFlorida.org aims to placereferendums on next November’s bal-lot that could help draw saner politi-cal district lines in Florida. One con-stitutional amendment covers con-gressional districts, the other stateHouse and Senate districts. It’s impor-tant to get this passed before the nextredistricting occurs, in 2011.
In general, we prefer not to tinkerwith the state Constitution. Theamendment process is overused;many issues can be resolved just aswell or better by legislative action. Inthis case, however, we have no reasonto believe legislators will ever give up
any of the power that allows them tocreate and control their own turf.
Ayearago,theRepublican-dominat-ed Legislature challenged the titles andballot summaries of these proposedamendments.The state Supreme Courtrejected that challenge.
Last week, legislative leaders saidthey again might go to the court toblock the initiatives, this time arguingthey might reduce minority represen-tation, despite the fact the amend-ments have provisions respectingminorities.
The real issue isn’t minority repre-sentation or ballot wording or titles. Itis a simple matter of the party in con-trol trying to maintain and strengthenits power. In recent years, theRepublicans have benefited. That’sone big reason that, despite the factthat registered Democrats outnum-ber Republicans in the state, two-thirds of Florida’s congressional dele-gation is Republican. The GOP lock
on the Legislature is even stronger.This is not a Republican-Democrat
thing, though. We have no illusionsthe Democrats would choose not toexercise this special power if theycould. The problem is the systemitself.
The proposed amendments aren’tespecially bold. They would simplycodify objectives: that districts not bedrawn to favor any party or incum-bent; that districts must be compactwhen possible and stick to localboundaries; and that minority oppor-tunity be maintained. But they wouldset constitutionally protected stan-dards and give the public a basis tochallenge redistricting-as-usual.
These amendments may not endthe practice of consolidating politicalpower through an overwhelminghome-field advantage, and may notprevent the weird jigsaw puzzle ofgerrymandering that results. Theycertainly could help, though.
I
Let commonsense guide us
As a newly elected member,I’ve had the privilege of servingtwo months on city council.
One thing is abundantlyclear: The airport continues tocommand too much councilattention. Perhaps it’s anobsession. Misunderstandingand speculation abounds.Now more than ever, open andhonest discussions are essen-tial.
During my door-to-doorcampaign, I listened to thecomments and concerns ofmore than 4,000 Venetians onevery issue. When it came tothe airport, the resoundingmessage was “we need to putthis behind us and get back tothe business of running thecity.”
People I talk to are underthe impression that council’smain goal is to produce an air-port master plan driven by asmall group that is politicallyacceptable, not one that isnecessarily right. After all theairport workshops, airplanechases and constant presenta-tions to council by the sameindividuals, there does notseem to be any useful result oreven the promise of one.
Traffic counts and aircrafttypes have become an obses-sion in their efforts to down-grade the airport’s referencecode from its officially recog-nized C-II to a B-II designa-tion. Much prudent advice hasbeen ignored and a lot of efforthas been wasted. The time hascome to acknowledge reality.
It is clear from all our air-port consultant’s documenta-tion that this is a C-II airportand always has been. I leave itto you to decide the viability ofthe city’s latest proposal(downgrade the airport butkeep runways at their currentlength) presented to the FAAon December 11, 2009. Thecity could have saved the gasfor yet another trip to Orlando.
It is also clear to me that DYAssociates, the consultant,understands the FAA’s positionon safety and utilization of air-ports. Based on the latest pro-posal carried to Orlando, myquestion is, “Do we?”
More importantly, are weready to move forward in apositive way by finally bringingclosure to the master plan
update and to rebuild Runway4-22, our noise mitigation run-way, to acceptable standards? Isubmit that we are, and havebeen for well over two years.
The expectation levels ofdedicated B-II proponentshave been raised by the city tounreasonable levels. These cit-izens have been mislead to nogood purpose based on thereality that the same airplaneclasses that landed here in1987 will probably still belanding here in 2010 andbeyond? What have we gainedfrom three years of circuitousargument and blatant disre-gard of facts, federal policy,and FAA correspondence?How many times does the FAAhave to say, “No.” How manymore airport workshops arerequired to understand andacknowledge the facts, takeaction and put the MPU tobed?
My answer is “None.” Wehave been chasing somethingthat is unattainable because itwas politically expedient.
Would we allow the plan-ning of any other major cityasset like the airport to be dri-ven by self-proclaimed expertsand activists?
PathTo CompletionI submit to you and mem-
bers of council this simplepath forward to finish thisMPU once and for all. To boilthis down to the simplest andmost easily understood terms,we must first and foremostcomply with our airport’s“reservations and restrictions”contained in the deeds oftransfer and obligations of thegrant assurances. The city hasa responsibility to its citizensand its airport to do so.
Then, we must:1. Rebuild Runway 4-22 as
an effective noise abatementrunway at its present widthand length
2. Leave Runway 13-31 as is3. Request continuance of
the existing Modifications OfStandards relative to the golfcourse fence line and othersimilar areas
4. Move the golf course dri-ving range in accordance withthe FAA directive stated in theAugust 2009 Land Use Audit.(Our consultant has told usthat we can probably getfinancial help from the FAA forsome of this work.)
The FAA has told us againand again the airport cannotbe downgraded from a C-II toa B-II. The FAA has also told usin writing to justify the full-length rebuild of 4-22 for noiseabatement. The city must nowact on these issues.

PROBLEM?
Back when I wasinsane, I would talk backto TV commercials.
It was give and take, asI saw it. They annoyedme; I let them know it.
Insane? Tell me aboutit.
I didn’t expect real,long-term satisfaction,say, the kind that wouldresult in a change ofbehavior on their behalfas a result of my scoldingor mockage. There wasno true give and take, asun-insane people wouldunderstand it.
No, the satisfactionwas simply the momen-tary relief of expressingdispleasure to a blinkingbox of tubes and wires, or
whatever kind of micro-circuitry they put intoTVs after 1962. I debatedwith an inanimate objectthat only appeared to befull of life. I triumphed,every time.
This satisfied an urge,even though it was clini-cally insane.
Chances are, you’vedone the same.
I’ve healed. I no longertalk to television sets,much.
But I still find myselfoccasionally moved tolopsided dialogue withelectronic devices. Some-times, perhaps, discoursesthat might be consideredunduly assertive. Perhapsaggressive. Rather.
Take, for instance, theinfamous PRINTER EPI-SODE of a few yearsback. This particularmachine was notoriouslybalky. One day, I’d hadenough. I tried to print; itwould not. I pleaded; itignored. I demanded; itsnubbed me.
Only then did I resortto what was admittedly aDESPICABLE and VIO-LENT ACTION upon the
gray, plastic body of theaforementioned Xerox. Iam not proud of this.Temporary insanity, clearenough.
In the psychologicalcommunity, this isknown as E-rage. It oc-curs when computersfreeze or cell phones goblank. When the modernmagic disappears, we arelost and angry, helpless.This may send us overthe edge.
I don’t know if hu-mans got mad at theirtools 150 years ago. Didfarmers fly off the handlewhen their ax becamedull or the wagon wheelbroke? When the leadpoint snapped, did theylecture their pencil?Scold a book? Talk backto candles?
I think not.Those were simple
devices. They are easy tounderstand. We cansharpen the ax or pencil,relight the candle. Wedon’t expect miraclesfrom a butter churn.
But when the GPSlady gives us a bum steer,we talk back. She/it has
human characteristics,so it’s a short step intowhat we would objec-tively term insane behav-ior, although we knowshe can’t hear us. At least,I don’t think so.
This phenomenoncame to mind last weekwhile I was cussing mylaptop. A lot. I unrealisti-cally expect the miracleof computing to occurcontinually and flawless-ly, and I am baffled whenit doesn’t. Truth is, I don’teven know what an elec-tron is. It controls my lifeand yet I’ve never seenone. I really have no cluehow any of this stuffworks.
When the electronsdon’t flow right, when theGPS stutters and thecomputer monitor fillswith zapf dingbats, we allmay descend suddenlyinto the madness of frus-tration. Just ask your ITguy if you doubt this.
We’re only human,after all, and our tools arenot. They just act it.
Had we followed theirguidance back then, it islikely that we would havea useful noise abatementrunway today. Until thiscity council is willing toput these actions onpaper and submit themto the FAA in the masterplan update, there will bemore workshops, moreconsultant fees, moretrips to Orlando, morecivic consternation andan airport that continuesto deteriorate right be-fore our eyes.
The idea of continuingto try and seek a morefavorable hearing at ahigher political level for
our flawed case is irre-sponsible. To what end?Why continue to leadpeople on? We shouldaccept the reality of thesituation and get on withmaking the best airportwe can have that is ascommunity friendly aspossible.
One of the reasons Iwas elected was to do mypart to try and end thiscouncil fixation with theairport and efforts todowngrade or reduce itsusefulness. So let’s get onwith the work that weknow needs to be done.
Emilio Carlesimo is amember of the VeniceCity Council.

My descent into E-rage
LETTERS FROM OUR READERSAt least it ensures profitsEditor:
Do you wonder if insurance companies and theFlorida Legislature are in cahoots? An amendment toFlorida Statutes Chapter 718 makes it mandatory forcondo owners who have no mortgage to buy hazard andliability coverage and to have their association named“insured and loss payee.” And if they don’t, comply theassociation will collect the assessments under Section718.116. No options.
The insurance companies must be dancing with glee.All the people who purchased their condos without mort-gages will now be subjected to the very insurance rulesthey paid to avoid.
This amendment should be re-visited by theLegislature. It’s an outrage to many of us.

On Dec. 11, we had abad leak in the main waterlineintheBridleOakssub-division. A call was madeto the utilities departmentand they were on sitewithin 30 minutes.
The crew worked hardto get everything back tonormal. From start to fin-ish, the crew under DannyKirkendall (the field oper-ations supervisor), tookabout five hours to com-plete the job.
I would be amiss if Ididn’t mention the namesof the crew: DaveGuilmette, Marko Tucak,Marc Richard, DaveAbiene, Vadin Bugeyev,Valeriem Manquez, TonyRamirez and Lee Krauss.

Time to beginwithdrawalEditor:
President Obama issending30,000morecom-
bat forces to Afghanistan,to “seize the initiative” inthis “epicenter of violentextremism.” After the21,000 surge last spring,this will double the U.S.commitment in less thana year.
Afghanistan was origi-nally a “war of necessity”to crush al-Qaida and theTaliban. Eight years later,the issue is what theUnited States may reason-ably hope to achieve inAfghanistan in 2010 andbeyond — and at whathuman and financialcosts.
The latest militarycasualty count in Afghan-istan is 932 Americans of1,536 total coalition fatali-ties; at least 4,434 Amer-icans have been gravelywounded.
Stark numbers under-state the sacrifices. Gov-ernment estimates placedthe cost of the 40,000 addi-tional forces sought byGen. McChrystal at $40billion to $54 billion peryear. Even the reducednumber of troops will costat least $30 billion annual-ly.
Acontinuedorexpand-
ed commitment mightstill be justified to serveU.S national securityinterests. But to rely oncounterinsurgency effortsto combat terrorist threatstoday, the United Statesmust also be prepared toinvade Pakistan, Somalia,Sudan, Yemen and othercountries.
Further, from the “AF-PAK” perspective, thou-sands more troops inAfghanistan may be coun-terproductive in pushingmore Taliban insurgentsacross the border andcomplicating Pakistanigovernment anti-terroristoffensives inWaziristan.
The Obama decisionfollowed a prolonged andcommendable process.We nevertheless remainconvinced that our braveU.S. troops and civiliansupport personnel haveaccomplished what couldreasonably be done inAfghanistan. It is time toinitiate a responsible with-drawal.

No yellow-brick roadEditor:
The Wizard (let’s callhim “They”) told us thecurrent prostate examprocedure was now seenas being of questionablevalue and unreliable.Then“they” addressed the cur-rent breast-cancer screen-
ing procedures and told uscutting back on screeningand diagnostic testing wasrecommended. Thismorning “they” hit the tri-fecta of male/female geni-talia when women weretold to pull up theirpanties after years ofaddressing the issue ofpap smears, coming outwith a recommendationfor less-frequent testingbecause “more testing isnot always more intelli-gent testing.”
Are we to believe thatall of the experts in thesethree fields just happenedto come out with thesenew recommendationswithin two weeks of oneanother? That after all theyears of campaigns to getpeople involved in theirown health care throughself exam and early detec-tion, in 14 short days thoseprinciples have beenabandoned in one fellswoop? Or could the tim-ing have something to dowith the massive health-carefistweareabouttogetshoved down our throats.
It’s time we all demandto see who is really behindthis health-care curtain. Ihave sent no one toWashington with thisagenda in my 40 years ofvoting, nor have any of myfriends. Yet I am told theyrepresent my needs. Ifthey want to represent myneeds, they need to sitdown and shut up.What adisgusting show we arewitnessing in D.C. Someday we will look back, butwe won’t be laughing.

Pamela M. StudwellPamela Marie Bugosh
Studwell, 53, died peacefully inher home on Woodside Road
in Brunswick,Maine, on Dec.26, 2009, after a10-month battleagainst cancer.Pam was sur-rounded by herloving husband,children andmother. Born inW i l m i n g t o n ,
Del., she has been a resident ofBrunswick for the past 25 years.
Survivors include her hus-band of 30 years, Phil; herdaughter, Anna; son, Evan;and her mother, Nancy AnnBugosh of Venice, Fla. Also sur-viving are her brother JohnAndrew Bugosh of Quarryville,Pa.; and her sister, Nancy JaneOverhulser of Wilmington,Del.; as well as so many dearfriends and family who aremissing her greatly.
Pam and Phil met at Trinity
College in Hartford, Conn., in1976 where she was a historymajor and had a passion fortravel and piano. They puteach other through graduateschool, moving to Maine fromNew York City in 1982 whenshe got accepted into theUniversity of Maine LawSchool. From 1984 on, shepracticed law in many capaci-ties. First with the MaineDepartment of Mental Healthand Mental Retardation, then,brief stints with Eaton,Peabody law firm of Brunswickand Seaborn Associates ofPortland. Later she worked formany years with Legal Servicesfor the Elderly out of Augustaand then finished her careerjoining the team at HealthPolicy Partners of Maine as asenior policy analyst for thepast three and a half years. Shemaintained her own privatepractice as an attorney for 20years based in Brunswick spe-cializing in estate planning,especially trust work for par-
ents with mentally disabledchildren, and environmentaland conservation law.
Pam’s truest passions, how-ever, were her two wonderfulchildren Anna and Evan andthe home her family made inBrunswick. These past 10months she watched themboth graduate from collegeand high school on the sameday and move with strong,confident steps towards inde-pendence in a new job inBoston and a new college inConnecticut. Their intelli-gence, health, maturity and lifeaffirming attitudes filled Pamwith pride and love. The 1800’sfarmhouse she and Phil reno-vated became a home in whichthey all felt grounded … with“two cats in the yard” lifebecame less hard.
Locally Pam was mostproud of her efforts to helpthe Brunswick-Topsham LandTrust secure the first part of theCrystal Spring Farm acquisition.She had just begun her year at
Eaton Peabody law firm andwas looking for a local nonprof-it that matched some of her val-ues for which to offer her skillsand expertise. The momentumto acquire the farm was justbeginning, and she became acritical part of the team thatmade this landmark transactionfor Brunswick happen.
Statewide, Pam was hon-ored to be part of the HealthPolicy Partners of Maine. Forthe past three and a half yearsshe and her partners usheredthrough nation-leading legis-lation, which reduced theavailability of tobacco prod-ucts; limited where it can besmoked and adjusted how andwho can purchase it. Mainerswill benefit for generationsfrom some of the laws thatPam and her group were ableenact through the legislature.
Pam and her family wish tothank her oncologist andfriend Betsy Connelly and themedical teams at bothMidcoast and Maine Medical
Center hospitals, the wonder-ful Hospice team, the State ofMaine for all its wondrousprotected areas that Pamhiked and kayaked through,and most of all, her tremen-dous network of friends andfamily who have supportedus through these difficultmonths. We will carry her withus when we are laughing, hik-ing, traveling, reading in ourbook groups, and holdingthose we love in our embrace.Services: Her memorial ser-vice with a reception to followwill be at 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan.2, 2010, at St Paul’s EpiscopalChurch, Brunswick, Maine.Contributions: In lieu of flow-ers please make donations inher name to The Brunswick-Topsham Land Trust, 108Maine Street, Brunswick, ME04011.

• Plans for the newVenice High School wereunveiled, and construc-tion was moved up to takeadvantage of lower costsand interest rates.The factthat the city would alsohave to advance its contri-bution to the plannedperforming arts center onthe school campus drewsome opposition, and the
threat of a lawsuit byVenice Taxpayers LeaguePresident Gary Budway,but council reaffirmedits support for the pro-ject even on the newtimetable.
• Two crime storiesdrew broad coveragetoward the end of theyear. The taking ofhostages at the Venice TJMaxx made nationalnews, with the happyending that no hostageswere harmed. It turnedout to have been aninside job, with thewould-be robbers escap-ing with no loot after analarm was triggered.
More tragically, aNorth Port man shot andkilled his estranged wife

“I think that’s a mistake,”Lichtenstein said. “Womenneed to know how to evaluate
their bodies. They live withthem on a daily basis, andwould be the first to ID thechange in their breasts.”
Dr. Scott Tetreault, atFlorida Cancer Specialists in
Sarasota, also thought moneyplayed a large part.
“I think this is a governmentpanel with a governmentagenda — to save money,because the (fewer) mammo-
grams you do, the more moneyyou save,” said Tetreault, anoncologist.
“That’s not how weapproach individuals. Wemake individual decisions for

Child abuseThursday at 9:23 p.m., deputies
responded to a call from a woman whosaid one male was battering another inher home, according to a SarasotaCounty Sheriff’s office report.
The male victim told deputies hewas struck in he head twice by ReginaldJerome Johnson Sr. The victim saidwhen he forgot to do thedishes, Johnson becameangry and struck him inthe back of the headtwice with an open hand.The victim said Johnsonhad been yelling incoher-ently at him and beganpoking him with his fin-ger.
Deputies then con-fronted Johnson. He told them he wasdisciplining the victim for not followingthrough with his chores.
Since the victim had no marks,Johnson’s actions were determined tobe disciplinary in nature.
Deputies then talked with thewoman who called in the complaint.She said Johnson often becomes intox-icated, causing him to be aggressivetoward the victim. She said on this day,Johnson had been drinking and possi-bly doing drugs, causing him to beoverly aggressive with the victim. Thewoman didn’t have any suggestions fora place where either of the males couldgo for the night to separate them.
Then deputies heard loud noisesoutside. When they went outside, theysaw Johnson standing 2 to 3 inchesfrom the victim’s face yelling at him.Deputies asked the victim to go insideso they could talk with Johnson. Whilethey were talking to him, Johnsonturned and walked into the house. As
the deputies had not reason to detainhim, they didn’t follow him into thehouse.
However, the woman approachedthem and said they should stick aroundfor a few minutes.
“He’ll be at it again,” she said,according to the report.

The victim was lying on the bed andJohnson was standing at the foot of ityelling at the victim. Johnson wouldbecome angry, yell, then calm down,then repeat the cycle, becoming moreaggravated every cycle.
“You f------ traitor,” he yelled. “If I gotarrested, I would have kicked your a--.”
“I’m sorry, Sir,” the victim repeatedlystated. “Please don’t hurt me.”
“What did you tell those honkycracker mother f-----?” At this pointJohnson was lying on top of the victim.
The deputies saw Johnson strike thevictim’s legs on both sides with both ofhis arms.
“Where’s my belt?” Johnson yelled.“Here’s your second a-- whooping, andthis time I’m going to leave marks.”
At this point, deputies were in fearfor the safety of the victim, who isunder 18 years of age. They ran to thefront door at which time the victim wasrunning from the side door. Johnsonwas in hot pursuit.

For the second straight year,Cavallaro was named to the All-Tournament team.
“On the offensive side withthe new spread offense we hadmuch better cuts and muchbetter looks,” said Flynn.“Juliana got some isolationswith her which I want to gether.”

The Indians (5-4)held the Blazers to sin-gle-digit scoring in thefirst two quarters anda total of 13 points inthe first half, while theoffense was hitting
three 3-pointers ineach half.
“The first half de-fensively we were real-ly solid,” said Caval-laro. “I don’t think wegave up maybe oneor two offensive re-bounds in the firsthalf. I think all theshots were pretty wellcontested. They havesome kids that can putsome points on theboard and holding ateam like that to 13points obviously youare doing some prettygood things. Again,the credit goes to thekids for how hard they
work.”Junior Clay Burton

remains important to Venetians andeven to the city. Last year’s January debut of
Cirquesa, which pitched its European-style cir-cus tents in the field at 851 Venetia Bay Blvd., justoff U.S. 41 north of the Bypass, was just the firstreminder to Venetians of this area’s circus ties. A Mayarticle about 5-year-oldVictoria Gaona, who is following in the footsteps ofher famous father, Tito Gaona, was another reminder of that legacy. Titooperates the Flying Trapeze Academy & Flying Fantasy Circus on part of thesite where the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus wintered from1960 to 1992.
An article about the Wisconsin, the restored train car that belonged toJohn and Mable Ringling and is now housed at the Circus Museum of theJohn and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, was another reminder of the circusera.
TheaterCelebrating its 60th anniversary, Venice Theatre, the third most important
community theater in the United States, rated several articles in Our Town lastyear. Its summer stock program presented “West Side Story,” which earned ravereviews for cast and crew and director Brad Wages. Venice Theatre costumedesigner Nick Hartman warranted an article for the expertise he has brought tothe theater’s costume and scene departments. He did both for “West Side Story.”
Venice Theatre made page one again in the fall when several New York and Hollywood filmproducers came to town for a site-inspection tour and were entertained at the theater. Next June,the community theater world will be centered in Venice, when Venice Theater hosts the AmericanAssociation of Community Theatres 2010 International Festival. Theaters from as far as the
Philippines will bring shows, which will be produced during the week-long event. The theater hasbudgeted nearly $90,000 for the festival, which is expected to make a major economic impact
on the area.

celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Venice Art Center with expanded offerings,
BY KIM COOLFEATURES EDITOR
Aviation has been important to Venice since the city’s earliest years.2009 got off to a flying start in Our Town with an article about the histo-ry of aviation in Venice, which, from 1943 until the early 1950s had notone but two airports — Albee Field and the Venice Army Air Base, todayknown as Venice Municipal Airport. The article was inspired by aDecember fly-in celebrating the legacy of flight in Venice. More vintageplanes arrived in January for the annual Collings Foundation visit toVenice, which last year included the first visit of a P-51 Mustang, the planeused for training during World War II in Venice. The Mustang, a B-17 anda B-24 Liberator will return Jan. 27-29.
In March, as Venice aviator Charles Mason did in 2009, severalVenice aviation enthusiasts will head up to Lakeland for the annualSun ’n Fun Fly-In.
Venice may be known for its sharks teeth, but many residents prefer itssky. Among the people in Our Town who were singled out this year werelongtime flying angels Nick Piscatelli and Paul Holowell, who saved sever-al lives by flying people and organs as needed to hospitals in Tampa and evenGeorgia. Roscoe Turner flew the farthest to help people. He made his 17th flightto Thailand to build schools and hospitals in villages there.
TurtlesAnother perennially popular topic concerns the sea turtles that nest and hatch on
Venice beaches May 1 to Oct. 31. Many resi-dents walk the beaches daily to keep track ofthese threatened and/or endangered crea-tures.

DEAR ABBY: My hus-band, “Dave,” likes totickle our two boys, ages 7and 8. He goes too farsometimes and they beghim to stop, but he won’t.I have talked about it withmy sons and even cameup with a phrase — “Nomore!” — when theywant him to quit. I havealso tried to make it clearto Dave that he needs tostop when they say it.Theproblem is, he continueseven after they say it.
When I try to stophim, he says he’s just“playing with my boys”and that I’m interfering.Or, if they say stop, hegets irritated and callsthem “sissies.”
I know his tickling ishurtful because he hasdone it to me and leftbruises. What can I do tomake him stop this behav-ior? — NOT TICKLED,NOBLESVILLE,IND.
DEAR NOT TICKLED:I’m not tickled, either,because tickling can be aform of abuse when it’s
taken too far. And whensomeone says, “Stop!”regardless of the reason,the person should lay off.Your husband’s behavioris sadistic. If he bruisedyou, one look at the markhe left should have beena clue to him that hewent too far.
I hope you realize thatthe man you’re describ-ing is a bully. The boysare not “sissies.” They aresimply outweighed. Yourhusband should find acontact sport, channelhis aggression elsewhere,and pick on someone hisown size.
DEAR ABBY: I am in atouchy situation. I amrecently divorced and my7-year-old daughter idol-izes and deeply misses herfather. My ex is in prisonserving time for molestingmy older daughter, whowas his stepchild.
Obviously, my youngergirl, “Karen,” has no cluewhy her father is inprison. She still thinksthat when he gets out,he’ll be part of her life.She’s too young to hearthe truth, but how elsecan I explain why Daddywill never be part of herlife again? I don’t want herto resent me for keepingher from her father, butI’m afraid that’s exactlywhat will happen.
Abby, please help me.I’m torn about keepingKaren happy, but alsokeeping her safe. —
TORN IN TEXASDEAR TORN: I know
you want to protectKaren, but that may notbe realistic. If your olderdaughter is living athome, there’s a possibili-ty that she has told herlittle sister what hap-pened. Karen IS oldenough to understandthe difference betweenacceptable touching andwhat is not. If she doesn’talready know, then forher safety you shouldhave that talk with her.
Your ex-husband will,I hope, be away for a verylong time. When Karenbrings him up, repeat
that to her. She’ll be olderand fully able to under-stand by the time herfather is ready for release.And by then you willhave told her all the facts.
DEAR ABBY: When Isee someone with a labelsticking out of his or hershirt, blouse or whatever,is it proper to just walkup and stick the labelback inside the person’sclothing? Should I justtell the person that thelabel is showing? Orshould I ignore it?
I have always appreci-ated knowing when thishas happened to me.What’s the correct way of
handling this? — OBSER-VANT IN LAS CRUCES,N.M.
DEAR OBSERVANT: Towalk up to someone youdon’t know well and touchhim (or her) is extremelypresumptuous. If you seethat someone needs aclothing adjustment, takethe person aside, quietlyexplain what you havenoticed and let the personfix it him- or herself.
P.S. It is OK to OFFERassistance — which mayor may not be gratefullyaccepted.

THE PAD PLACE
'''''
BY KIM COOLFEATURES EDITOR
Christmas was “suite”this year.
My friend CaroleRaymond and I tookadvantage of a last-minute cruise deal onNorwegian Cruise Lineand got a whole lot morethan we bargained for.
The two weeks beforeChristmas week, cruiselines offer some incredi-ble bargains becausemany families wait totravel during Christmasweek or they havealready traveled forThanksgiving, payingtop prices during thoseholiday times. Inbetween, prices areslashed and, noting thebargains to be had andthe fact that I hadunused vacation to loseor use, I called Carole.Together we surfed theNet, found what wewanted at NCL and thencalled the cruise linedirectly to refine ouroptions and make ourreservations.
It was about Dec. 4 or5, and when we reached
the NCL reservation per-son, we learned that allthe balcony cabins weregone for the Dec. 12cruise of the EasternCaribbean. However,two mini-suitesremained at about $250more per person. Wedecided to splurgebecause with the vastdiscounts, we were stillpaying less for a mini-suite on the NCL Pearlthan we would havepaid for an inside roomsome other time on asimilar seven-nightcruise.
The reservationistsaid that if we did notcare which of the tworemaining cabins wegot, we might beupgraded when cabinswere assigned. Shepromised we would notbe down-graded and theworst cabin we wouldget would be one of themini-suites. It was likeplaying an extra lotteryticket at no additionalcharge.
A few days later, thee-mail came with ourcabin assignment —11502. That was one of
the two mini-suites, andthat was fine. After all,how much time do youreally spend in a cabin?
Unlistedor delisted?
Dec. 12 we drove toMiami, parked the car inthe garage at the pier,hauled our wheelies tothe check-in line andwere told: “I can’t seemto find your reservation.”
I pointed to the cabinnumber on our ticketand then rememberedour conversation withthe NCL reservationist.
“We might have beenmoved,” I offered.
No sooner were thosewords out of my mouth,then the NCL represen-tative spoke to anotherman who quicklyappeared at our side,leading us away fromthe crowds checking inand into — the VIPcheck-in lounge. I hadbeen there years ago formy very first cruise, atwo-day press trip withNorwegian. As the line’sguest then, I had a regu-lar outside cabin withwindow but did enjoy
the VIP check-in and theopportunity for somebehind-the-scenes looksfor stories for the VeniceGondolier Sun.
This time, I was pay-ing my way entirely andnever mentioned that Iwrite travel stories. Thiswas strictly my vacationand while I always takehundreds of photos, Iwas not planning towork, although I didbring one reporter note-book along. Old habitsdie hard.
In the VIP lounge, wewere assigned to some-one else who immedi-ately took us aboard,passing the long line ofother passengers goingaboard. An announce-ment was made thatcabins were not all readyso guests should enjoylunch in the Garden Cafeand they would be toldwhen they could go totheir cabins. That didnot seem to be for us. Wecontinued following theman into an elevatorand up to Deck 10 andthen down the starboardhall toward the bow.
Finally, he opened the
door to our cabin.
Lottery winner?We saw a green sofa, a
matching chair, coordi-nating chaise lounge,
large-screen TV on thewall between whatappeared to be two bal-conies and a round coffee

see certain islands,bays and mountains onthis trip, I was planningto spend most of thetime enjoying the suitelife.
I have stayed inwonderful places allover the world, enjoy-ing especially greataccommodations inLondon and Bali andVancouver and Rio, butthis was even morespecial because it hadbeen so totally unex-pected. To have so
much room at sea andespecially all those bal-conies was — “suite”indeed.
Did I mention thefamous NCL chocolatebuffet, which is part of
the NCL experienceupgrade or not —another “sweet” deal?

table on which some-one had placed a lovelyvase of tropical flowers.
The sofa was not apull-out bed but simplya sofa and the two bal-conies were that butjoined together as onelarge balcony with tableand chairs at one endand additional seatingat the other end.
Carole spied a majorcoffee maker in the cor-ner as well as a varietyof cups and glasses in ahandsome storage cab-inet above the coffeemaker. There was amini refrigerator belowand by now we had alsonoticed behind us — adining room.
Not only were wenot in a mini suite, weseemed to have wonthe lottery for cruiseaccommodations. Thiswas beyond anyupgrade I could haveimagined. Heavydraperies separated thevast living area fromthe bedroom andanother balcony — onefacing the bow of theship and locateddirectly below thebridge. That balconycontained two lounges,another small table anda chair, plus room forat least two morelounges.
The bedroom had
another seating area,extra large king-sizedbed, another large flat-screen TV with DVDplayer and adjacentbath and dressingrooms. There wasanother half bath offthe suite’s entrancebut, mesmerized byflowers and such opu-lence, we had yet tonotice that room.
The dressing roomhad drawers andshelves and a safe foreach of us, centraldressing table, luggagearea, rack for clothesand as much space asany decent walk-incloset. The bath hadtwin sinks, a tub withyet another TV, twowindows, separate
shower with Frenchrain nozzle, showerwand and six separatewater jets, closet toilet,scale and bath sheetsrather than tiny beachtowels.
In the living areathere was a champagnebucket — with cham-pagne — and then abutler named Juramararrived to tell us abouta whole bunch of otherperks that came withthis “suite” life. At somepoint Carole paced offthe living room andannounced it was 27 by15 feet. That is largerthan my living room athome in Venice.
Despite all the traveladvice from friendswho insisted we must
Surely, some of yousaw my recent columnin which I said that it’sfine to use “more impor-tantly” at the beginningof a sentence. Clearly, itwas the best I could doto explain the conceptof sentence adverbs.Unfortunately, two read-ers wrote to tell me that,despite my explanation,they still disagreed. Trag-ically, it’s now clear thatthe best I could do was-n’t good enough. Conse-quently, I can’t resist try-ing just one more time.
In that first columnon “more importantly,” Iexplained that not alladverbs describe actions.Some cast commentaryon whole sentences. Iused the example,“Frank-ly, my dear, I don’t give adarn.” Turns out thatwasn’t the best choice. Asa reader named Henrypointed out, “frankly”could be seen as modify-ing an implied verb. “Ispeak frankly when I saythat, my dear, I don’t givea darn.”
Therefore, he said, thiscommon use of “frankly”doesn’t justify starting asentence with “moreimportantly” because in
a sentence like “Moreimportantly, the mayorvoted yes,” the “moreimportantly” doesn’t de-scribe an action. Unlikethe “frankly” sentence inwhich you could imaginea person speaking in afrank manner, no actionin the “more important-ly” sentence is beingdone in a more impor-tant manner. The mayorisn’t puffing out his chestand strutting around ashe votes yes. That’s why,Henry said, you shoulduse “more important”and not the adverb form“more importantly” inthese cases.
It’s an insightful analy-sis that would have wonthe argument for Henrywere it not for the peskyproblem posed by everysentence in the first para-graph of this column.“Surely,” “clearly,” “unfor-tunately,”“tragically” and“consequently” are allused correctly in thatparagraph. Yet none isdescribing an action.Instead, each is casting athought over a whole sen-tence. They’re called sen-tence adverbs, and theyprove that adverbs don’talways describe actions.
That’s why it’s just asvalid to say to use “moreimportantly” at the headof a sentence as it is touse “more important.”It’s also why, contrary topopular belief, “Hope-fully, I’ll see you tomor-row” is as grammaticaland logical as “I hope I’llsee you tomorrow.”
And, yes, even “firstly,”“secondly” and “thirdly”are grammatical ways tostart a sentence — every
bit as valid as “first,”“second” and “third.”(Though if the -ly formsseem ugly to you —well, that’s valid, too.Grammar is one thing,aesthetics are another.)
Of course, just becausean adverb comes at thehead of a sentence does-n’t mean it’s a sentenceadverb. “Quickly, Johnran out the door” uses“quickly” to describe anaction. It’s just anotherway of structuring thesentence: “John ranquickly out the door.”
Sometimes it’s unclearwhether the writer intend-ed to use a manneradverb as a sentenceadverb: “Happily, sheaccepted the job.” Doesthat mean she acceptedit happily or it’s a happything that she acceptedit?We can’t be sure whichthe writer intended. Butthis rarely causes prob-lems because, clearly,the happiness could per-vade every aspect of thissentence.
Additionally, I knowthat these concepts canbe a little difficult. Lucki-ly, you don’t need toworry about them toomuch. Certainly, sen-tence adverbs comenaturally. Consequently,if it’s an -ly word thatpeople often use at thebeginnings of a sen-tences, it’s probably fine.

JUNE CASAGRANDEA WORD, PLEASE
FINE WHINESAll’s well that ends well
BY BOB MUDGEEDITOR
It’s a hoary tradition to start the newyear by making a list of resolutionsdesigned to make you a better personin the next 12 months. As far as I’m con-cerned, traditions, like laws, are madeto be broken. Besides, I have a betteridea: I’ll review last year’s resolutionsand brag about the ones I achieved.Why wallow in failure?
In no particular order:1. Make myself look flawless to the
public. (See above.)2. Lose weight. (Haircuts count,
right?)3. Shoot an under-par round of golf.
(I not only did that, I actually had thelow round of the day at the putt-puttcourse.)
4. Learn a second language (Eck-chay.)
5. Visit at least two foreign countries.(Knocked off 11 in one trip to Epcot.)
6. Win an award for a humor columnabout my wife. (First place!)
7. Apologize to my wife for writing anaward-winning humor column abouther. (Doghouse.)
8. Buy a more-comfortable couch.9. Read the Great American Novel.
(I’ll never understand why Dr. Seussdidn’t win the Nobel Prize for Litera-ture.)
10. Keep my name and face out ofthe supermarket tabloids. (I had a closecall with the whole Jon and KateGosselin thing, but I made it.)
11. Don’t hit the fire hydrant on myneighbor’s property.
12. Add gray to my hair to make melook more distinguished.
13. (There isn’t a No. 13 — bad luck).14. Stop being superstitious. (Oops,
scratch that last one.)15. Avoid “revoking the license” of all
those drivers whose only purpose onthe road seems to be to tick me off.(Though the year isn’t over yet as I writethis.)
16. Don’t grow a beard.17. Don’t win the lottery or the
Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes.(I’ve heard money turns you into a jerk,so I guess I must already be rich.)
18. Resist the urge to twit peoplebothered by being wished “HappyHolidays!” by wishing them “MerryChristmas!” — in Spanish.
19. Put up a Christmas tree for thekittens to mutilate and short the lightsout on.
20. Forward all the Nigerian bankscam e-mails I get to Bernie Madoff.(They may not make his kind of money,but they’re not in jail, either.)
21. Don’t break any bones — at least,not any of mine.
22. Challenge Lance Armstrong toa bike race. (How fast do you think hecan go on one wheel (the front one, ofcourse)?)
23. Live to see a person of color elect-ed president.
24. Find out what this “Internet”phenomenon is all about. (Personally, Igive it another year or two, tops.)
25. Turn a lame idea for a columninto an even lamer one. (Double check.)
Frankly, sentence adverbs are OK

FROM THE CHURCH OF JESUSCHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS
Jay Fanning, a 20-year-old Veniceman, will join the ranks of morethan 50,000 volunteers fromaround the world on Feb. 10 whenhe departs for a two-year stint as amissionary for The Church of JesusChrist of Latter-day Saints in Kiev,Ukraine.
The church’s missionary pro-gram is based on the NewTestament pattern of missionariesserving in pairs, teaching theGospel and baptizing believers inthe name of Jesus Christ. Themajority of these missionaries areyoung people under the age of 25serving in more than 350 areasthroughout the world.
Prior to departing for Ukraine,Fanning will spend 12 weeks at theMissionary Training Center inProvo, Utah, where he will spend 10hours a day learning how to teachthe Gospel in an orderly and clearway and begin learning Russian.Once in Ukraine, Fanning willspend his days studying the Gospeland proselytizing by following upon appointments, visiting homes ormeeting people in the street orother public places.
As with all of the church’s mis-sionaries, Fanning’s contact withfamily and friends during his timeof service will be limited to lettersand occasional phone calls to fami-ly at special times. Missionariesavoid entertainment, parties orother activities common to thisage group as long as they are ontheir missions, so they can focusentirely on the work of serving andteaching others the Gospel of Jesus
Christ.The church only sends mission-
aries to countries where govern-ments allow the church to operate,with the first missionaries arrivingin Ukraine in 1991. Approximately10,000 of the church’s 13.5 millionmembers live in Ukraine.
Fanning, the son of EdwardFanning IV and Adele Chapman,was born in Temecula, Calif. He wasraised in Sarasota and OklahomaCity. After graduating high school,he returned to the Sun Coast andcurrently resides in Venice. After hismission, Fanning intends to furtherhis education.
The local church is located at3000 E. Venice Ave., with Sundayservices beginning at 10 a.m. Formore information about thechurch, visit www.lds.org or call thelocal missionaries at 544-8257.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). How for-giving are you? Someone who hasbehaved poorly by most standards willask for your compassion. Even insectshave hearts — long, skinny, weird ones,but they count, too!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A deci-sion that affects you rests with a tough-minded person. You know what thisperson needs to hear, and you can sumit up in a few words and deliver it withthe right energy level. You’ll be mightyconvincing.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A goalwill guide your behavior. But when itfeels like a huge pressure and sucks allof the joy out of life, you have to wonderwhether or not it’s really the right onefor you. Go easy on yourself.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Anxious-ness can be a bad habit. Your worriesare unfounded. If you can’t shake theuptight feeling, ask for it to be removedby whoever has the ability to do so.Unseen forces rally for your freedom.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You want toimpress others and make them smileand laugh. But focus first on realizingthe best that is in you. That’s your mainjob, and when you’re doing that, therest comes easily.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You haven’tput your finger on it yet, but there issomething you need. It would make lifemuch easier. Give it some thought. Thebetter you can articulate your wishes, themore likely you will be to attain them.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You willbuild a nice rapport with someone.There’s no need to rush social tiesalong. You feel secure and are not wor-ried about when you’ll see the otherperson again. Things develop naturally.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Yourastute comments will make someonetake notice of you. Attention to detailis one of your many talents, and it willbring you together with others whoare equally observant.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).You shouldn’t have to steal momentsfor yourself. Having time to relax isn’t aluxury — it’s a necessity. You’ll performbetter later when you take the time tounwind now.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Youwill expertly identify and respect therights and territory of others, thoughthey may not be as keenly attuned toyour boundaries. You’ll find a tactfulway to enforce your position.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’llbe full of insight. Throw out your sug-gestions and solutions, and thenremain quiet for a time. Resist trying tofill in the silence with more ideas. Giveothers a chance to think and respond.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’salways challenging to be the bigger per-son — to treat others with tendernessand respect regardless of how they aretreating you. You’ll have the opportuni-ty to prove your maturity, and you won’tregret taking the high road.

21 Years Drilling inCharlotte County Area
It never ceases toamaze me the depth ofoptimism I encounter.The local Real EstateMarket trends areshowing that thebottom of the markethas been reached, as Ihave reported earlier(Sun-Herald Oct. 17,2009). The MLS statis-tics show the bottomwas reached in April2009.
Since the marketvalue peak 3+ years ago,the local values havedropped 57%. The peakaverage sales pricetopped at $272,242 andnow the average salesprice is$117,081.
Here comes theoptimism, as I meetsidelined sellers (thosethat have not listed
their home for salebecause of the declin-ing market) who believethat their strategy ofwaiting for the marketto improve will berewarded. Some actual-ly believe that as weprogress into 2010 andthe market conditionsimprove (more buyers,less inventory), thatprices will recover toprevious highs immedi-ately! With expectationsso high and visions of $signs and sugarplumsdancing in their heads,it is time to get a realitycheck.
Fidelity did a study ofthe average Rate ofReturn (market appreci-ation) for real estateand reported that realestate rose by anaverage of 5.9% per yearsince 1963. As we know,no market moves in astraight line, some yearsthe Rate of Return washigher than others andvice versa. So, if we areto assume the historicalaverage percentageincrease will continue,the question becomes:How long will it take forhome values to increaseto previous levels?
Let’s take an analyti-cal approach and lookat the Rate of Return,and apply a rule of
thumb. We can try tosee into the futurebased on past perfor-mance and develop astrategy for buying,selling and holding.
There is a rule ofthumb to determine theapproximate time ittakes for money todouble when earningcompound interest. TheRule of 72’s can be usedto determine theamount of time it will
take for the currentaverage value to doubleand reach 2006 highs.
The Rule of 72’s ispretty simple, just takethe Rate of Return (orinterest rate) and divideit into 72, and this willgive you the amount oftime to double youinvestment. For exam-ple: if we take thehistorical average rateof return for real estate(5.9% per year) and
divide it into 72 theresult is 12.2 years.Therefore, if the marketreturns to normal andwe get average Rate ofReturn for the next 13years, the prices wecould have sold for in2006, will return in2022.
No cause for despair!This would be a healthymarket. Good steadymarket value increasesthat people can afford.
A word of caution:Foreclosures continueto be a concern for thenear and intermediatefuture. The currentbottom could be rocky,and we may yet see anew low.
The current trend ofbringing distressedproperty slowly into themarket, will prolongrecovery, but alsoprovide some pricestability.

McLEAN, Va.— Theaverage fixed-rate for a30-year mortgageclimbed above 5 percentfor the first time in twomonths, leading to adecline in mortgageapplications.
The average fixed rateon a 30-year mortgagewas 5.05 percent thisweek, up from 4.94percent last week,Freddie Mac said. Thelast time rates wereabove 5 percent was theweek ending Oct. 29,when they were 5.03percent.
Mortgage rates haverisen since they hit arecord low of 4.71percent the week of Dec.3. They are closely tied toyields on long-termgovernment debt, whichhave gone up since then.
Higher rates usuallylead to a decrease in loanapplications to purchaseor refinance a home.Mortgage applicationsfor purchases fell nearly12 percent last weekcompared with the
previous week, whilerefinance applicationsdropped 10 percent, theMortgage BankersAssociation said Wednes-day.
A Federal Reserveprogram to buy $1.25trillion in mortgage-backed securities haskept rates on 30-yearmortgages around 5percent this year. Theprogram, designed tomake home buying moreaffordable, is set to endnext spring.
Freddie Mac collectsmortgage rates eachweek from lendersaround the country.Rates often fluctuate,even within a given day
The average rate on a15-year fixed mortgagerose to 4.45 percent from4.38 percent last week.
Rates on five-year,adjustable-rate mort-gages averaged 4.4percent, up from 4.37percent last week. Rateson one-year, adjustable-rate mortgages rose to4.38 percent from 4.34percent.
The rates do notinclude add-on feesknown as points. Thenationwide fee for loansin Freddie Mac’s surveyaveraged 0.7 point for30-year loans. The feeaveraged 0.6 point for15-year, five-year andone-year mortgages.

Two very different American motors cars
By the time you readthis week’s column,it will be 2010,
which in the automobileworld adds anothermodel year to thevehicles we love.Suddenly all those 1955Chevys, Fords, Olds,Buicks, etc., are nowseniors. Yours truly andprobably most who readthese articles rememberwell how big a deal it waswhen those new carswere introduced.
Some dealers up in myhome state of Marylandkept the showroom lightsoff and covers over newmodels until a certaintime. The intrigue ofsuch marketing madeprospective buyers andjust plain “lookers”actually stand in line toget in dealerships. Thissort of thing started justafter World War II andcontinued until the late’50s. Of course, eachmanufacturer haddistinct body styles,colors and fancy trim.During those years,pretty much everyonecould identify mostbrands as they passed byon the streets becausethey were different fromeach other. Not so anylonger!
To me, today theyalmost all look alike.There are some excep-tions, like Buick, whichbrought back the fenderport holes. A few foreignmakes like BMW,Mercedes and RollsRoyce continue to carryon with their fancygrilles. The two late1960s American Motorsvehicles seen in thephotos project them-selves as individuals.
The 1969 frost-white,two-passenger AMXcoupe is one of the“hottest” models evercreated by AmericanMotors. This one featuresa 390-cubic-inch engine,turning out 315 horse-power and 465 foot-pounds of torque. It wasbuilt with the “gopackage,” factory Hurstfour-speed shifter,positraction, heavy dutysuspension, brakes,wheels, tires, etc. — andget this, an 8,000 RPMtack redlining at 6,000RPM. The crankshaft andconnecting rods wereforged steel, very strongindeed. Actually theengine probably deliv-ered over 350 hp, but forinsurance reasons thiswas not promoted. Bearin mind a base weight ofabout 3,100 pounds gavea great horsepower-to-pound ratio.
They could mix with orbeat most so-called “hotcars” available at thetime. The owner is aquiet 47-year-old, ex-Vermont gentlemannamed Jeff Walsh, whotakes great pride in hisbaby; keeping it as goodas it looks in everyrespect. This version issomething he hasdesired for years afterpurchasing a 1973 Javelinfrom his brother at age18. Jeff had it restored,drove many miles in theSt. Albans, Vt., area of theLimestone State as wellas most of all NewEngland. After 10 years,he sold this “pony car”and moved to Floridawhere it “was warm.”
Since moving to PortCharlotte in 1990, Walshsearched for a specialAMX (American MotorsExperiment) machine,and finally found what isfeatured here only twoyears ago. This model
came from California,then Washington stateprior to his ownership. Itwas restored in 1996 bythe previous owner, yetneeded much improve-ments in perfecting thedrivability. Jeff’s next-door neighbor and friendDrennon Judy assisted incorrecting all mechanicaland body issues to “makeit right.”
An environmentalchemist since 1982 both“up North” and in Venice,Mr. Walsh is in a fieldthat is needed now andin the future. His fiancee,Lori Disher, also likesolder autos, especiallythis one.
Ms. Disher has anunusual job as a histolo-gist at Fawcett HospitalLab. They attend localand nearby carshows/cruise ins. Talk tothem about AmericanMotors’ answer to earlymuscle cars.• • •
The other car is a two-toned turquoise, one-owner 1966 Marlin four-passenger, fastback, alsoan American Motorsproduct. It was theiranswer to the DodgeCharger and Ford Torino,both similar in design.
It’s owned byEnglewood residentGeorge Fuller, 70, andwife of 25 years, Cindy,formerly of beautiful, butcold, Hastings, Neb.,
until 1985. After comingto the Sunshine State tovisit Cindy’s mother, theypromptly moved south.This sporty automobilecame with them. It wasGeorge’s first new carpicked out while visitingan AMC dealer in GrandIsland, Neb., where hecouldn’t resist the greatbody design and ride. Hetold me “it was love atfirst sight” mainlybecause being sodifferent from the otherdealers Mustangs andCamaros. The total cost,“including everything,”was $3,600. Not cheap inthe mid-’60s.
Not contemplating anymove at that time, ACwas not even thought of,something regretted tothis day. The vehicle wastheir family car, drivendaily, running the milesup to 106,000 currently.TLC has kept the Marlinlooking good, not at alllike a six-figure mileageautomobile. Georgeworked 15 years for theHastings Company inNebraska, followed byyears of being a “handson” bowling centermanager until heading toFlorida.
Cindy was employed inthe bowling industrythere until they movedaway. After moving to theEnglewood area, Mrs.Fuller was hired by theSun, remaining there for
several years untilleaving to become asupervisor at the nearbyWalmart.
Mr. Fuller was amaintenance employeefor four years at RiverHouse Condominiums,when in 1989 he startedhis own lawn servicebusiness, which he stilloperates, mainly inRotonda and nearby.
Specifications of the1966 auto are as follows:wheelbase 112 inches;weight 3050 pounds;engine V8 327 cubicinches; horsepower atleast 270, more likely
300, again rated lower forinsurance, reason-common in the 1960-70era; above average powerto weight ratio; transmis-sion four-speed withspecial Hurst shifter,(only 285 made with thisoption).
Little did he ever thinkthis 44-year-old autowould still be an eye-catcher during collectorcar events. You can see itand George at theDearborn Street Cruise-In in Englewood, heldthe first Saturdayevening of each monthwith DJ Tommy Brooks.
