As a result, districts across the Cape Coral company provides after-quake aid By MCKENZIE CASSIDY [email protected] A Cape Coral company is help- ing to rebuild after a powerful aftershock hit the Chilean city of Concepcion Friday morning, less than a week after a magnitude-8.8 earthquake struck on Saturday. Turbine Generator Maintenance, Inc., a local company that repairs steam and gas turbine generators for private industries worldwide, was in Concepcion when the quake hit last weekend and is struggling to repair four out of five plants around the city — one of the plants was leveled by a tsunami. Todd Feeley, TGM’s vice presi- dent of sales and marketing, said his team is trying to bring power back to the country. They will stay as long as it takes to rebuild, he added. “Power generation is a big part of getting them back on their feet,” he said via cellphone Friday. Those still in the country have felt aftershocks all week, he explained, including a magnitude- 6.9 quake which hit Friday at 6:47 a.m. EST, according to a report from the Associated Press. Telecommunications, including his own cell phone, are mostly inoperative but service varies by city, he said. On Friday afternoon he stopped his car in a small com- munity outside of Concepcion where he managed to get service. Earthquakes measured on the Richter Magnitude Scale are num- bered from 1 to 10, and Chile’s record-setting earthquake last week was only two points away from being considered epic. Geologists point out that an earthquake over magnitude 10 has never been recorded, and the devastation seen in January’s quake in Haiti was magnitude 7. Chile’s coast lies on a major tec- tonic plate and, as a result, the country is affected by a lot of seis- mic activity. According to the United States Geological Survey, it experienced 13 events since 1973 that registered a magnitude 7 or greater. Feeley, who was staying at his own apartment in an 11-story building, said TGM employees were working at a job site when it hit, while the rest of the company’s staff was at the Holiday Inn in Concepcion. It took two days for the workers to make it back to the rest of the group at the hotel. “I was on the sixth floor of an 11-story building,” he said. “It felt like it was moving one foot in either direction and just about threw us out of bed.” When the first quake struck in the afternoon on Feb. 27, furniture Commercial impact MICHAEL PISTELLA Coral Point Shopping Center, with a Publix, Staples, Ross, Dollar Tree and more, is among the city’s busiest shopping centers.

Cape firefighter brings home the gold — a shiny Ford MustangBy TIFFANY [email protected]

It appears Cape Coral residentRyan Corlew is luckier than hethought.

During a recent trip to LasVegas, he and a couple of friendsscored tickets to a taping of thetelevision game show “Let’sMake a Deal!” Never known forbeing the luckiest in the bunch,Corlew prepared for the show asbest as he could: with someresearch and a great costume.

“If there’s a raffle or some-thing going on around the station,they know I’m not going to win,”Corlew, an engineer with theCape fire department, said.

Corlew watched the show toget a feel for how it worked, get-ting an idea of how the showdoled out prizes and such. Healso learned that if the tape wasaired — some tapings do notmake to television — it wouldrun about the same time as St.Patrick’s Day, so Corlew plannedfor that.

“I actually dressed up as a lep-rechaun,” he said. “I was trying towork my angle there.”

Corlew’s wife, Kelley, made asign for him to take to the showthat read, “Make this my luckyday.” The couple have two boys,13-year-old Cody and 9-year-oldColton. Cody attends DiplomatMiddle School, and Coltonattends Pelican ElementarySchool, where Kelley works as areading specialist.

Corlew, never expecting towin anything, headed out toNevada in January with the oth-ers. The group was made up ofother members of the Cape firedepartment, including Ret. Lt.Grady Yeager, Battalion ChiefRick Wylie and Lt. Brad Windey,along with Roger Windey, RonPentiuk and a few others.

When the group returned afew days later, they all had asecret to keep. Corlew had wonthe big prize on “Let’s Make aDeal!” — a new, 2010 FordMustang. The show’s rules forbidwinners from telling the publicuntil the show airs — about twomonths later.

“So we’ve been building thesuspense up over the last coupleof months,” he said Thursday.“They know were involved in a

deal at some point, but they don’tknow the whole story.”

“Keeping it a secret has beenthe hardest part,” Corlew added.

On Friday afternoon, thegroup of men and their familiesand friends met at the StevieTomato’s Sports Page on PineIsland Road to watch how theshow unfolded. They ate anddrank, then laughed and cheeredas Corlew was pulled to partici-pate as a contestant.

“The whole experience could-n’t be better,” he said Friday.

According to Corlew, therewere 340 people in the audienceand the taping took place at theTropicana. Prior to the start of theshow, the attendees were putthrough a short interview processthen took their seats. The host,Wayne Brady, opened the showand looked at Corlew.

“He, like, walks right over tome and picks me first,” he said.

Two other people were cho-sen. Brady offered one person thecontents of an envelope or whatwas behind a curtain. The personpicked the envelope, which con-tained money, and Corlew wasgiven what was behind the cur-tain — a new game room includ-ing a pool table, flatscreen TVand Wii game system.

“I didn’t have to make anydecision or anything,” Corlewsaid.

The second person wasoffered the contents of a box oran envelope. The person chosethe box, which contained a Zonk— a colored wig. A Zonk is a gaggift on the show. Corlew then hadto pick between the game roomand whatever was in the envelopeor what was behind a curtain.

“So far I had to make no deci-sion, I’m just standing there get-ting stuff,” he said, adding thatwhen he did his research theshow tended to give away a bigprize at the start to get the crowdpumped. “So I said, “I’m gonnago for the curtain.’”

Corlew won a new, 2010three-seated Kawasaki jet ski.But, he explained, the show is farfrom over. At the end, the winnerholding the most valuable prize isgiven a chance to trade that prizein for a chance at the big deal.One woman won a new car, butCorlew knew that she would not

take a chance losing that.Sure enough, Corlew said, the

woman declined participating inthe big deal and he had the nextmost valuable prize. He knew thetop prize is usually between$20,000-$25,000, and it did nottake Corlew long to decide toplay the game.

“I’m not going to go homewith nothing,” he said, addingthere are no Zonks in the big deal.“I’ve got a once-in-a-lifetimeopportunity. I’m probably nevergoing to be on the show again.”

So Corlew told Brady,“Wayne, I’m going for it.”

Given three numbered doorsto choose from, Corlew pickedthe first door. Brady opened theother doors first. One door hid acash vault and the other con-tained a new dining room set, hesaid.

“So, at this point, I knew Iwon the big

deal of the day,” Corlew said.And he did. The door Corlew

picked hid the gold-colored FordMustang

“That was the best part,” hesaid of the coloring. “Because Iwas dressed as a leprechaun.”

Yeager said Friday thatCorlew’s personality fit the gameshow perfectly.

“He lit it up,” he said, addingthat Corlew hammed it up for theshow. “He goes the little extramile for things.”

Asked about Corlew’s sup-posed lack of luck, Yeager point-ed to his win.

“I was just amazed,” he said.“In the beginning, it all fell in hislap.”

“It was all luck,” Yeageradded.

It will take up to 90 days forthe car to be delivered from theday the show is aired. Corlew and

his wife are likely going to get ridof the Mustang.

“We’re probably not going tokeep it. The cars we have now arefine, so we’re probably going tosell it,” he said. “It’s not as muchof a family car.”

Corlew is stationed at CapeCoral Fire Station No. 2. He hasbeen with the fire department for16 years, but has worked for thecity for 20 years. He first workedas a lifeguard and swim instructorat the Cape Coral Yacht Clubwhen he was 16 years old. Healso worked at Sun SplashFamily Waterpark.

Corlew attended Edison StateCollege, received his EMT cer-tificate and later joined the Capefire department. He also holdsdown a side job as a salesman athis father’s store, FOS Furniture.

CALL FOR DETAILS

Bio Drain is a cost effective environment friendly way

to treat drains & septic tank systems keeping them healthy & free from debris.

City of Palms needs serious work.“It’s an option,” he said. “But we

would need to be convinced City ofPalms is the right venue.”

The NSCC is asking the city for $22million in improvements for theAcademic Village area, the site eyed forthe facility. They’re also asking another$5 million towards con-struction.

NSCC is seeking anadditional $10 from thecounty, should the facilitybe built in Cape Coral.

City staff is looking atways to postpone about $4million of the siteimprovement price tag tolater phases of the project.

If city council shoulddecide to move forward,then another deadlineexists: the facility must beup and running and readyto host events by Dec. 31,2012.

With such tight time-frames all the way around,Marty McClain thinks the

council needs to decide now, not later.“We need to stop wavering and wob-

bling,” he said. “That seems to be thesolution: wait.”

City council meets on Monday, 4:30pm, at city hall.

Celebrate Cape Coral

Should the city council hold a special election or go the appointment route to fill the vacancy caused by Eric Grill’s suspension?

Cape Coral residents will be able to herald the city’s40th anniversary early this month with a three-day festi-val designed to celebrate all things Cape Coral.

Through the efforts of the Chamber of Commerce, thecity, title sponsor TIB Bank, and other business contribu-tors, the traditional Celebrate Cape Coral Block party hasbeen expanded to three days with a new twist — a down-town carnival.

The celebration kicked off Friday night with carnivalrides, live music and other attractions across from theLeeWay Transfer Station on Southeast 47th Terrace.

Festivities continue today with the annual parade, tobe led by the city’s “pioneers,” or founding families.

Activities begin at noon and continue until midnightwith the showcase event, a 50-unit hometown parade —one of the biggest yet — stepping off at 6:30 p.m. fromSoutheast 15th Avenue and continuing to Southeast 8thCourt along 47th Terrace.

Festivities will wrap up Sunday following a 10:30a.m. worship service and lots more activities.

We thank the organizers, we thank the sponsors, andwe urge the community to pick a day and come out. TheCape is known for its community events and CelebrateCape Coral is a perennial hit with the carnival adding anew and interesting attraction to the standby favorite.

We hope to see you there.

tional draw to show we are not justa bedroom community anymore?We saw on the news tonight thatonly 7 percent of the city’s tax baseis commercial while in other citiesof similar size it’s about 25 percent.What good does it do to rezone res-idential land into commercial use ifnobody is willing to build here?Below is a letter we sent to all CityCouncil members. We encourageothers to contact them at [email protected] in support of thisproject before it goes to a vote asscheduled on March 15th.

Dear Cape Coral City Council, We strongly suggest you keep an

open mind about voting in favor forthe National Swim Center project.As 11-plus year residents of CapeCoral, we have seen the boom andbust we are all familiar with. Whilea cautious fiduciary approach isunderstood and expected by you therepresentatives of our populace, ascouncil members, you are alsocharged with making decisions thatencapsulate a vision of futuregrowth and prosperity. Before youclose your mind due to the initialcost, we trust you will consider thefuture revenue that would be gener-ated. We have attended swim meetsin the Orlando and Tampa areas andhave witnessed 1200-1500 swim-mers and their families from allover Central and South Floridaspending money at these three-dayevents. This is the kind of projectCape Coral needs to expand our taxbase, provide jobs for our own resi-dents (without crossing the river),attract national attention that couldentice more families to move to ourcity verses other local communities(new residents=tax revenue), andbring other business to our city. Inrecent elections, most of you told usyou would work for the growth andrenewal of our city. Here is yourchance to prove it.

How easy it is to say the city can-not afford this project and move on.We ask you to realize the opportuni-ty this represents and then performthe difficult task of figuring out howto make it happen.

Now, we see on television that ifit doesn’t happen in Cape Coral,Lee County wants to put it on theother side of the river. What hap-pened to the “Keep it in the Cape”mentality? In past elections, ourvote helped put most of you inoffice — be certain we will bewatching how each of you votes onthis project.

Council didn’t listen to in put on city manager contract

To the editor:Monday night’s Council Meeting

was a real eye opener! I made apresentation of a contract for the“city manager” position that was acollaborative effort of ArnoldKempe, myself and Sal Grosso,pointing out flaws in the contractoffered by Councilman Deile.

I offered solid reasoning to themayor and council. Including butnot limited to the fact that the con-tract offered little protection to thecity, no requirement that FloridaStatues be followed, $550 a monthcar allowance when the city hasexcess cars in its fleet that could beused for free,

There was no clarity if he shouldresign with respect to a severancepayout, his contract provides forindemnification by the city for “anytorts” (this includes a willful orintentional wrong), the term of thecontract is for one year and they areactively looking for a city managerby advertising for one, I suggestedthe following at the beginning of thecontract “or until a new city manag-er is appointed whichever is less inperiod of time”.

I further suggested that the fol-lowing be incorporated into the con-

tract “the employee is to performthe functions and duties as requiredby the City’s Charter, Florida StateStatues and the Cape Coral Code ofOrdinances”, “Four (4) months’severance pay” instead of 6 months,“For cause” shall be defined asincluding but not being limited to,malfeasance, misfeasance and ornonfeasance in the performance ofhis duties; violation of Florida stat-ues; violation of any substantiveCity Policy, rule or regulationwhich would subject any other Cityemployee to termination; or anyother act of a similar or more seri-ous nature”, “shall not be entitled topayment of any severance pay underthis agreement if he resigns”,“Upon any termination of thisAgreement pursuant to Section 1and the Employee is not the selectedas the City Manager, Employeeshall resume his duties as AssistantManager under the terms and condi-tions of Employees prior Agreementas Assistant Manager with no pay-ment of severance to the Employeeunder the within agreement”,Finally, “there shall be noIndemnification provided for anywillful or intentional wrong”.

None of the suggestions notedabove were incorporated into thefinal contract for Mr. Schwing. Inessence they were discarded ill-advisedly by Councilmember Deile,who preferred passing the contracthe drew up, as written. He furtherstated that he was not acting onbehalf of the council or the city innegotiating this contract! Don’telected officials represent the city(the people) and are they not sup-posed to act in the best interests ofthe people?

Moreover, he objected to myinsertion of “Interim City Manager”as not being consistent withCharter! He voted for that titlewhen the previous city managerresigned! Makes you wonder! Hisvote was the deciding vote on thecontract! His other comments withregard to a Florida Statue and priornotification to ratepayers were total-ly disingenuous and shameful.

Perhaps more wordsmithing andmarinating would have produced abetter document!

Council needs to get its priorities straight

To the editor:With regards to Monday night’s

council meeting and the Kesslerfirm discussion, I want to fullythank Councilmember Brandt forhis comments about the firm’s pre-vious 2006 performance.

He appropriately acknowledgedthat this firm’s efforts were unpro-fessional and lacking in itsapproach to their failed engage-ment by complaining to councilonly at the very end during theircouncil presentation that no onewould play in their sandbox whichresulted, in part, to an apparentspecific performance issue relativeto their contract with the city.

This message is the same that Ihave been conveying to all councilssince July, 2006, and that allmonies thus expended should bereturned fully.

I also thank CouncilmemberMcClain, who pointed out the spe-cific situation in Cobb County, Ga.,where the same Kessler firmproved itself as a good marketingorganization, as Mayor Sullivanacknowledged on Monday night viahis Web site comment, by deliver-ing the same essential document tothem as they did to the Cape whilefailing to perform the hard work.

As Mr. McClain also appropri-ately noted,PricewaterhouseCoopers andSaxon/Gilmore were able to com-plete their audit activity successful-ly and deliver detailed, specificresponses and recommendationsregarding the bid and award process

for the same UEP project during thesame period that the Kessler firmcould not.

The decision Monday night tobring this firm back to “finish” anengagement for which they hadalready been paid fully, and to paythem more taxpayer dollars, sug-gests that individual agendas mayhave trumped this council’s fiduci-ary responsibility to those same tax-payers.

And, to approve the “bringingback” of Kessler and his firm undera new contract without any specificdirection from this council withregards to deliverables supports thiscontention even more fully. Asfinal comment on this topic, thiswhole effort must be considerednon-strategic by this body as it wasnot one of the key objectives sup-porting the identified strategic areasin the plan approved by the counciljust last Monday night. This sug-gests that the funding levelsapproved for expenditure last nightwould also be non-strategic,although I am certain a rationaliza-tion will be attempted.

And, with regards to the strategicplan, goals, objectives and the met-rics that were approved by the coun-cil Monday night, the opportunitythat is represented by the AquaticCenter project, as proposed by theNSCC and discussed in the reviewdocument recently submitted tocouncil, has seemingly gained littleserious attention by the majority ofthe council, even though it is in thebulls-eye of this same approvedstrategic plan.

To pursue, or to at least vet fully,a potentially once-in-a-lifetimeopportunity, as City ManagerSchwing so appropriately posi-tioned it, requires vision andcourage. Having had the opportuni-ty to start, develop, and lead manyhighly successful businesses andprofit centers in over 20 years inthe private sector, I know fully thatit is not easy to cross this bridge,and, with the lack of backgroundsand experiences that most of thecouncil members have in thesetypes of matters, it is even more dif-ficult.

I understand that fully. That condition makes it even

more critical that this council doesfully vet the opportunity, with helpfrom those who have the expertiseto do so, to position them for thiscritical decision-making endeavor.However, to stay on one side andmake excuses for not even thinkingabout crossing the bridge is notacceptable as part of their electedresponsibilities.

Monday night during citizen’sinput, I did not ask the council tomake a go/no go decision about theopportunity. I did ask them toschedule a thorough review, con-duct that review asap, make thatgo/no go decision that they need tomake and then communicate to theresidents that position with theirassociated rationale. The futurealtering potential of the opportunityfor the city in so many waysdemands this, and they have thatsame fiduciary responsibilityregarding this opportunity to theresidents of the city to performtheir duties with sincerity, open-ness, reasonableness, and couragefor all of the residents that theyseemingly rejected with the Kesslerfirm decision.

My message to council is that itis time to get their prioritiesstraight. This city has a future, andit should be a bright one. They caneither help it to be on that path, sup-port the plan they’ve approved andeffect it, support our city leadershipand staff in their efforts, cease withthe micro-management and negativ-ity that is tearing at the core of thecity, and be the policy decisionmakers they’ve been hired to bewhile performing their fiduciaryresponsibility.

Applicants urgedfor District 5 seat

Cape Coral City Council is accepting applications from res-idents in District 5 to fill a council vacancy.

The Governor’s Office has suspended Councilmember EricGrill, pending adjudication on a charge that Grill provided a“false document” to a client who contracted with his construc-tion business. Grill was elected to the seat more than two yearsago and can be reinstated unless he is convicted or pleadsguilty to the felony charge. Grill has maintained his innocence.

Meanwhile council must fill his seat while the processperks. They’ve gone the appointment route due to cost and theinability of the Supervisor of Elections Sharon Harrington tohold an election within the city’s charter-mandated timeframe

Given the options — or lack thereof, thanks to Ms.Harrington — we’ll find no fault with council’s decision toappoint.

Already, there are willing residents raising their hands toserve and that is always gratifying. We thank those who havesubmitted their names, and we urge others in the district withan interest in city issues to consider making a bid as well.

We’ll be honest, the task can be thankless — just ask thelast few who stepped into what is sometimes referred to as a“caretaker” role.

But it also can be infinitely rewarding because there is theopportunity to make a very real difference in the city over thenext year or two.

The deadline for submissions is Wednesday with councilset to make its appointment March 15. If you live in District 5— an area roughly south of Pine Island Road, north ofVeteran’s Parkway and west of Del Prado Boulevard — andyou have an interest in serving, are knowledgeable about cityissues and are willing to assume a leadership role, please stepforward.

The residents need the very best District 5 has to offer tohelp the city get on with the business at hand.

Council needs to think long term

To the editor:We applaud your recent editorial in favor of the

“Concourse at Cape Coral” project. Obviously, you areable to envision the enormous economic impact thiswould bring to our city. Unfortunately, we believe toomany Cape Coral residents and perhaps some councilmembers, view the project as just an “expensive swim-ming pool” when in fact it is so much more.

This isn’t a commercial project that results in anoth-er empty strip mall, but would be an alternative sourceof tax revenue. How does the Council plan to attractmajor new business and industry projects to our city(and this project is about our city) without some addi-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Those of you who know me knowfully that I will be a strong supporter andadvocate of their efforts in trying to bewhat they need to be for all of the resi-dents, employees, and businesses of thecity. They need to help us all to havethe confidence to support them in theirefforts.

Steve Riggs Cape Coral

Ready to serveTo the editor:

A 17-year resident of SW Florida, Imoved to Cape Coral in 1998 because itpresented the best opportunities for meto raise a family. I was attracted by thelow crime rate, beautiful parks, commu-nity events, and affordable housingprices. Much in Cape Coral has changedin the past few years, but I still believethere is no better place for my family. Iwant to do my part to make sure itremains the best place in the world forme to raise my two little girls.

Wanting to be part of the resolutionto bring Cape Coral back to what it oncewas and what it still can be I submittedthe appropriate paperwork for theappointment to the District 5 Cape CoralCity Council seat, on Thursday, March4. I seek to serve our residents because Iwant to do my part to help Cape Coralbecome the city of growth and prosperi-ty that it once was. The issues facing ourcity will require time, deliberation, andworking with the people to do what isright to improve our great city. Throughhard work and dedication, I know it ispossible to bring us up out of these hardtimes, and I am willing to make thetough decisions that must be made. Itruly believe that my values and princi-ples will help expedite that process.

Currently, the city is experiencing thebiggest economic challenge in its histo-ry. Cape Coral and her people did not gountouched by the country’s painful eco-nomic crisis. If anything she was hitharder than most areas in the UnitedStates and for this, it is imperative duringthis economic hardship that the tax bur-den on the citizenry is not increased. Ifselected, I will work with the Mayor,Council, and people to find the mostcost-effective ways to efficiently operatethis city, and will work tirelessly towardsfinding areas to trim the budget and cutexpenses. I will also examine everyoption to ensure our citizens are payingthe fairest possible utility rates.However, public safety will always bemy top priority, as I know it is for mostof us.

The decisions that are before thisCouncil will not only determine thefuture prosperity of this city, but willalso personally affect the lives of thou-sands of families, mine included. I willnot take this responsibility lightly. Eachdecision will be made with the utmostregard for the ramifications, both shortand long term. They will also be madeonly after all options are weighed andinformation analyzed, involving the pub-lic in every step along the way. I will gointo each issue with an open mind andnot allow any preconceived ideas to off-set my ability to learn and rationalize allaspects of that issue.

It is my hope we share in these goalsand the methods of achieving them sothat we may work together to bring CapeCoral back to the paradise so many peo-ple have come to either retire in endlesssummer or raise their family in a safe,beautiful, and community focused city.

Driving school neededTo the editor:On Sunday Feb. 21, Cape Coral

police responded to a call regarding adisturbance at The Dek. The officer lefthis vehicle to assist another officer. Hetook the time to close and lock the dooron the vehicle, but he had forgotten toput it into park. This vehicle went on tohit four motorcycles, which were parkedin a legal designated parking area, anddid about a $1000 damage to each.

This will now mean $4,000 of our taxdollars must be spent to repair the motor-cycles.

The person who caused the distur-bance, if a multi-offender, may be fineda $100. If this is his first offense, it willprobably be dismissed. This doesn’tsound like a good way to balance thebudget.

Connie Barron, police spokeswoman,will not release the officer’s name. Thereseems to be only two reasons that some-thing like this can occur, one is the offi-cer became so excited, he wasn’t think-ing clearly. If this is the case, it soundsas though he may need more training atthe academy. This will cost more tax dol-

lars. This is where they did not send theofficer who drew down on a child forsmoking a cigarette underage last month.

The other possible reason is that hedoesn’t know how to drive properly.

In this case, he shouldn’t be in a posi-tion to give tickets to other drivers andshould be sent to driving school.

Cape Coral police continue to dothings that jeopardize the lives of inno-cent citizens. Because he is an officer, itis a safe bet that there will be no disci-pline.

Differing views should be welcome

To the editor:There is a person who writes into the

mailbag who has a retort for everybodyhe does not agree with as if he is the onlyone that knows what’s going on. Thisperson sounds like he believes that onlyhe is smart enough to know what is goodenough for everybody, just like our pres-ident.

After just making things up he thenstates that other people should get theirfacts straight. This reminds me of aSaturday Night Live skit about what theworld should be like; it was calledWayne’s World.

Father’s story poignant picture of a child taken too soon

To the editor:A little 2-year-old star was darkened

much too soon.I read the story about Liam, written by

his dad Joseph Perk, and it was the mostemotional and heart-felt love story I haveever read, and the tears pour from myeyes as I attempt to put my present feel-ing to this sheet of paper.

My God sir, I cannot tell you of howdeep the story of your young son andyourself have affected me in your time ofsorrow.

God will most certainly take youryoung Liam to his breast, as he attemptsto grant you and yours all the solace youso sorely need at this time in your life.

Please accept my most heartfelt con-dolences for the happening of such aheartfelt tragedy, and, may the good lordgive you peace.

Thank you so much for the eloquentlytelling of your most profound happening.

Rescuers were real life savers

To the editor:At 8:20 a.m. on March 3 we were

leaving Bay Pointe Yacht and RacquetClub heading toward Rt. 75. After pass-ing the Hogbody’s restaurant we saw asmall child on the road ahead and werestopping as we passed the child. A vanand truck in both the east and west boundlanes saw what was happening and wereable to stop and block traffic while oneof them scooped up the child and got itout of harms way and took the child tothe nearest house.

This was a heroic act and the threedrivers should receive recognition fortheir quick action and bravery in savingthe child’s life. I do not know these folkbut they are my heroes and I am sure thatthey are also the heroes of the motherand father of the child. They have thesincere appreciation of the communityfor their brave actions.

City employees are not the enemy

To the editor:I am a city of Cape Coral employee

whose title is administrative specialist IIand I have worked for the city for fouryears. I have not received a raise in overtwo years, or union steps since I am nota union member. As it appears right now,probably another two years will go bybefore I receive an additional penny.

I pay for family health insurancewhich means that each month I pay$572.72 and as rates increase everyyear, my take-home pay decreases thatvery same amount. I have a two-yearcollege degree and, at 54 years of age, Imake the same salary I made when I was23 years old, which is approximately$35,000. My degree means nothing inCape Coral.

When I moved here seven years ago, Iunderstood that I was choosing a qualityof life as a trade-off for money, but Itruly believed I would be able to survive.Now, I’m not so sure, especially since

my husband has been out of work foralmost a year due to the economy. I stillhave a child living at home and all threeof us are struggling to live off my salaryand my husband’s unemployment bene-fits which will soon be running out. Andnow I am faced with further devastationas Mayor Sullivan and his advocates feelthat I am overpaid and that the city isbeing frivolous with my benefits.

As a resident of Cape Coral, I takepride in my city, but it is hard for me toseparate my anger and frustration when Ifeel as if I am always a target for ourmayor, as well as many of my fellow cit-izens simply because I am a city employ-ee. I do not understand why our mayorhas made city employees the enemy andwhy he wants us, the employees, to viewhim as our enemy. I am confused as towhy our mayor makes comments suchas, “I’m not about to stand still while res-idents eat Puss ‘n Boots (cat food) andemployees eat filet mignon.” If he spenttwo hours shopping with me on theweekend, I think he would feel different-ly as I search for sales, eat unhealthyfoods because they’re cheaper, and liter-ally add up in my mind each item I put inmy shopping wagon so I won’t be embar-rassed when I check out for not havingenough money to pay for my groceries.

I am a hard worker and I love my job,but when our mayor says such cruel anddemeaning words, he hurts me by attack-ing my self-esteem, my value as a cityemployee and my morale. Ultimately, ifthere are more employee-related cuts, Iwill be forced to walk away from myhome, which holds my whole life sav-ings, and leave this city behind. I willend up going back to New York where Iwas always valued as a dedicated, hard-working employee.

Although I mainly speak for myself inthis article, I am not alone. Many of myco-workers are in the same situation andfeel betrayed by our mayor and his fol-lowers. I have to admit, I am afraid Iwill not be able to survive in Cape Coralmuch longer.

Chilmonik is correctTo the editor:Robert Chilmonik, Lee County Board

of Education member, is absolutely cor-rect when he expresses concern for theabysmal SAT/ACT performance by ourschools, and with the FCAT scoresamong the lowest in the state.

This coupled with the fact that ourper-student transportation cost is amongthe highest in the state certainly shouldserve to sound the alarm for change. Theissue of student transportation has been asore spot for years. Time and again wehave heard of exhaustingly long busrides,l to and from the school, impactingadversely on student performance andparent frustration.

These are not issues to be ignored andMr. Chilmonik is to be saluted for hisdetermination to finally institute a planto correct the problems, one board mem-ber cannot make the changes. We shouldnot continue with a program that hasbeen tried, tested, and failed and the restof the board along with the superintend-ent should pick up on Mr. Chilmonik’sleadership and institute the obviouschanges. These are top priority issuesthat should be addressed immediatelyand until solved.

Dick KalfusCape Coral

Utility lawsuits drivingcouncil agenda?

To the editor:Not only are our elected City

Council members, meaningMayor Sullivan and Deile, work-ing against public opinion, theyseem to have only one agenda: towin their lawsuit against the Cityof Cape Coral. This lawsuit wasfiled long before they ran forelection, back in 2006. And, italso seems that the only reasonthey ran for election with suchpromises to dig up whateverwrong doing previous CityCouncil has done, it has allowedthem to maneuver through all thered tape they themselves, as citi-zens of the city, were unable todo.

Now, with their “power ofinfluence” over the city’s citi-zens they are not only able tostrong arm their fellow CityCouncil members (which seemsoddly strange how Grill is nownot available to speak up), butalso able to justify their own rea-soning behind the suit.

And, why do Brandt andLeetz feel this is also a goodidea? It makes no sense to me

why they are backing up their mayor andDeile’s convictions. Is there something we donot know? Transparency is obviously not partof their personal agenda, but only letters writ-ten upon a piece of paper claiming to be aContract with the City they have had no inten-tion upholding.

Doesn’t anyone think this is wrong?Having such a personal agenda, running forelection and actually convincing thousands ofcitizens that they are the right people to bringchange to our city has only helped them toobtain what they initially sought out to do;win their lawsuit.

And, let me remind you that winning theirlawsuit means the city of Cape Coral is outthousands, possibly hundreds of thousands ofdollars that it needs to continue moving for-ward with the UEP among other importantnecessities, which is really needed to help thegrowth of the city.

Swim Center? Of course not! There willbe no money for that because it will be goingtowards “charitable organizations.”

They were not running for election to helppropel future growth of this city. To me itseems they were out for themselves. How canbringing back an auditor who was unable tocomplete their so-called audit help? Again,this sounds to me that they have had thisplanned all along.

Doesn’t anyone else see this? And, thereare those out there who commend theirefforts!

So, they claim that the city of Cape Coralrobbed them. Does this mean that they areright to be so sneaky to convince everyone tospend more of the city’s money to rob the cityback? Two wrongs do not make a right! Theyshould have focused their personal effortsworking outside of the city government theynow claim to run. Everything they do, everydecision they make stinks of a personalvendetta against the city of Cape Coral. Howcould anyone really believe they are out thereworking for the best interest of the city?

Everything seems to be rolling backwardin order to fulfill their personal agenda. But ofcourse, robbing the city of Cape Coralbecause they themselves were robbed first isthe “change” they claim to be making. Howcan this actually be happening?!? I am sick.

For those citizens who are not aware, youare now. There has seemingly been a smokescreen, smelling of sweet promises thatwould lead our city towards future growthand financial stability. However, smoke issmoke. I have been choking through it formonths.

A lot of what the four out of the now sevenCity Council members are doing is talk andmore talk. They are hiding behind their ownpersonal agenda. What are you going to doabout it? Please, don’t just sit there; stand upand demand ethical leadership for our city!

It is time to really make a change foreveryone. There are many out there lookingfor a real leader who will justify spendingmoney to actually help propel our city’sgrowth, making this a more welcoming envi-ronment for everyone, on every level. CapeCoral has so much potential!

But, with decisions that will lead to thiscity’s downfall, how can Cape Coral becomeone of the most desired cities in Florida forfamilies, vets, and businesses?

This is what happens when people are noteducated on how to vote.

In fact, this is why so many people chosenot to vote; too much corruption within ourcity which has led to a downward spiral thatwill lead to our demise.

Mayor Sullivan, I have had enough, that isfor sure! And, it is time to realize that the cit-izens of Cape Coral will not stand behind anunethical tag-team claiming to be the changethis city needs. It is wrong for you to use yourgovernment leadership for personal gain.Shame on you!

OBITUARIES

‘March in the Park’ set to blossom March 13By MCKENZIE [email protected]

Hailed as a growing, surprisingly pop-ular annual event, Garden Club of CapeCoral will hold its second “March in thePark” next weekend.

It’s on Saturday, March 13, from 9a.m. to 4 p.m. at Jaycee Park in CapeCoral, where local residents can tour theserene park on the banks of theCaloosahatchee River, learn about gar-dening and purchase plants for sale.

“Last year was our first year, andbeing with the economy the way it was,we didn’t know what to expect,” saidGinny Huffer, an event organizer and gar-den club member. “And we were pleas-antly surprised. We were busy all daylong.”

Huffer said she’s been handing out fly-ers to get the word out and other localgardening clubs have been telling theirmembers about the event.

“This is something we plan to contin-ue and hope it will grow each year,” she

said. Thirty local vendors will be at the

event selling a number of local plantsincluding hibiscus, bromeliads, orchidsand bamboo, for example. Huffer said lastyear the march featured fewer than 20vendors, a sign that it’s building momen-tum.

There will also be speakers each houraddressing topics related to plants or gar-dening. A total of seven are scheduled,one speaking each hour of the event, ontopics such as worm composting, floralart design, a hibiscus grafting and grow-ing herbs in Southwest Florida.

Live entertainment will be provided bya local DJ and vendors are selling food toresidents attending the event. Some ven-dors include the Northeast Kettle Corn,Gramp’s Italian Kitchen, an Italian iceprovider and a breakfast provided by twodifferent clubs from Cape Coral HighSchool — the Florida Future Educatorsof America and the Florida Career andCommunity Leaders of America.

Fellow organizer Kathy Woodlocksaid the garden club is attempting to setup a program to provide local scholar-ships to children who are environmental-ly focused.

Each year they send one child to a cen-tral Florida camp which focuses on teach-ing children about plants and the environ-

ment, and Woodlock said they are hopingsome of the proceeds from the marchcould help them to continue sendinginterested children.

Raffle tickets are also available for $1each. At the end of the day organizerswill raffle off a number of prizes includ-ing a hand-painted rain barrel, a birdcage, a wheel barrel full of gardeningsupplies and tickets to the Edison andFord Winter Estates or Cultural ParkTheatre.

Huffer said some master gardenerswill be available to answers questionsduring the day.

“It is a good place to come if you havequestions or something in you yard thatyou want to know about,” she said.

Most people are familiar with the clubbecause of the local gardens they manage.Woodlock said members oversee a gar-den behind the circulation desk of theCape Coral Library, as well as a garden atCity Hall and the rose garden at the CapeCoral Historical Museum.

Cape Coral man faces sexual assault charges

By TIFFANY [email protected]

A Cape Coral man has been accusedof sexually assaulting a child from 2004to 2006, when he was under the age of18.

George John Mitar IV, 20, faces onecount of sexual assault by a person under18 years of age with the sexual batteryof a victim under 12 years of age andone count of lewd lascivious behaviorwith the victim less than 12 years of ageand the offender is less than 18 years ofage.

Mitar was located at his Cape Coralhome Feb. 18 and was arrested on a war-

rant, according to Lee County Sheriff’sOffice spokesman John Sheehan.

Mitar remained in the Lee County Jailon $300,000 bond Thursday.

According to court documents, Mitarsexually abused the male victim on morethan one occasion between June 3,2004, and Nov. 16, 2006. The abusebegan when the child was 9 years oldand Mitar was 15, and continued untilthe victim was 10 years old and Mitarwas 16.

During a police interview inDecember, Mitar said the sexual activity“only happened once and that he partici-pated in a polygraph at his father’s

office to prove it,” the documents state.Mitar told detectives he had per-

formed a sexual act on the victim for “nomore than one minute,” according toinvestigative records released late thisweek.

Mitar denied any other incident, thedocuments state.

His father, George J. Mitar III, is aprivate attorney. He reportedly toldpolice that his son disclosed smalldetails about the alleged incident, and heused those details for his son to partici-pate in a polygraph examination. Heagreed to provide a copy of the poly-graph examination results to police.

According to Sheehan, George J.Mitar III worked for the LCSO, possiblyin a legal capacity, before leaving in2004. Robyn Mitar, the stepmother ofthe accused, has been with the LCSOsince 1989. She is a lieutenant assignedto the Watch Commander Division.

Authorities seek man believed responsible for car burglaries

By TIFFANY [email protected]

An armed man is responsible for at leastfive vehicle burglaries in northwest CapeCoral and possibly other areas, accordingto authorities.

Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers isasking for the public’s help to identify aman caught on surveillance video breakinginto a vehicle in the 2200 block ofNorthwest Seventh Terrace in earlyFebruary. In the video, the man is armedwith a black handgun that is tucked intothe back of his pants.

The man is described as a white, in hisearly to mid 20s, with a medium build andapproximately 6 feet tall.

“This guy is definitely linked to five(burglaries), but most likely more than

that,” said Trish Routte, coordinator forSouthwest Florida Crime Stoppers.“There’s been similar activity in that areaprior to and after that occurred.”

The homeowner, who has surveillancecameras hooked up to his residence,caught the man on video approach thehome and begin checking the handles onsix vehicles parked in the driveway. Theman eventually came across the sport util-ity vehicle and entered through the frontpassenger door.

“This one happened to be unlocked,”Routte said.

The man remained inside the SUV fornearly 12 minutes before exiting the vehi-cle through the rear passenger door. Routtedid not know if anything had been stolenfrom the SUV or other burglarized vehi-

cles. She said the vehicles were brokeninto around the same time and in the samearea.

According to Routte, detectives withthe Cape Coral Police Department say theman is responsible for a handful of recentvehicle burglaries in the north Cape andcould possibly have targeted other areas.

“There’s been similar crimes in thatarea and we don’t think this is an isolatedincident,” Routte said. “In this case, thehomeowner did happen to have surveil-lance cameras around the house, so fortu-nately we were actually able to catch thisguy in the act.”

What is alarming for authorities is thefact that the man has a gun.

“You’ve got somebody who’s veryserious about what he’s doing. He’s armedwith a weapon,” she said. “Any timeyou’ve got somebody committing crimesand they’re armed with a firearm, there’s

always a potential for danger.”Routte said the weapon is easily acces-

sible if the man is confronted.“You’ve got a car burglary situation

that could turn into a shooting,” she said.“The level of danger increases from a ran-dom car burglary to the potential of some-thing much more serious.”

Authorities are hoping the public mightrecognize the man or the handgun tuckedinto the back of his pants. Anyone withinformation is asked to call SouthwestFlorida Crime Stoppers at (800) 780-TIPS(8477).

“Sometimes the slightest bit of infor-mation can be pieced together to linksomeone to it,” Routte said.

All callers will remain anonymous andwill be eligible for up to $1,000 in cashrewards. Tips may also be made online at:www.swflcrimestoppers.org.

Canterbury School students cull top honorsBy MCKENZIE [email protected]

Four local students fromCanterbury School were recog-nized by judges last month dur-ing the Edison RegionalScience & Engineering Fair.

Each year students atCanterbury enroll in an inde-pendent study program wherethey work to perfect an experi-ment under the advisement of ateacher. Once the project is fin-ished, students compete in oneof two divisions, junior or sen-ior, depending on whether theyare in middle or high school.

“It’s a semester-longresearch class, actually it’s ayear long because now we arepreparing to get ready for nextyear,” said Kelly Etcheverry, ascience teacher. “They aren’tgiven class time for it so theyhave to do it individually or inmandatory group meetings.”

Etcheverry explained thatstudents choose an idea they areinterested in and teachers helpthem to formulate their idea intoa problem that can be testedusing science. By the end of theproject the teachers are onlyhelping students to submit theirpaperwork for the fair, she said.

Approximately 400,000 stu-dents created science projectsthis year, said Etcheverry, andby the time judging began thatnumber was reduced to 410.The regional fair includedschools from all over Southwest

Florida. Jacob Dufault, a junior at

Canterbury, was named Best ofFair in the senior division for acomputer science project named“Examining the Effects ofDifferent Random NumberGenerators on Perlin NoiseWith Different NumberDistributions.”

His project optimized amathematical algorithm used incomputer graphics for films like“Star Wars” or “Shrek.”

“There is perlin noise, whichis an algorithm that enhancesgraphic imagery, like computergraphics and animations,” hesaid. “I would like to see it usedin real time graphics like avideo game.”

Later this year Dufault willcompete at the Florida StateScience and Engineering Fair,as well as the Intel InternationalScience and Engineering Fair.He also received a Yale Scienceand Engineering Associationaward, an Intel Excellence inComputer Science award, anaward from Florida Associationof Science Teachers and a fullscholarships to Florida GulfCoast University.

Mercedes Zambrano, a sen-ior, tested whether a rectal orear thermometer was moreaccurate in reading an animal’stemperature. She earned firstplace in their division anddecided to conduct this testafter interning with a local vet-

erinarian. “She wanted to know if it

would be more comfortable forthe animal to use an ear ther-mometer,” said Zambrano. “Theear one is not as effective.”

She received a full scholar-ship to FGCU and will competeat the state competition.

Cape Coral freshmanCheyenne Reynolds, earnedsecond place for her projectnamed “Water Hazard? DoesBPA Leached Into WaterBottles Cause Mutation inDrosophila?” Reynolds, an ath-lete, said she thought of theproject from hearing about thepossible harmful chemical inwater bottles. She said that BPAis known to cause breast or

prostate cancer. “I heard that if you freeze a

water bottle, it could causeleaching of BPA and I wantedto see if that was true,” saidReynolds.

A Canterbury student fromNorth Fort Myers, JamesHarris, also tested three differ-ent types of solar panels to findout which one is the most effi-cient. He earned third place forhis project named “SolarDistillation.”

He explained that the para-bolic solar panel, shaped like atrough, is the most efficient.

City landmark, June’s Hallmark, to close its doors March 31By DREW WINCHESTER [email protected]

Thirty years are coming to aclose for Jane Hartz and June’sHallmark.

One of the most belovedstores in Big John’s Plaza, if notall of the city, is closing its doorson March 31, and with it Hartzwill close out a wildly successfuland indelible chapter in her life.

“It’s not bittersweet at all,”she said of the store’s closing.“I’m excited about getting out.”

Along with her husband Mark,Hartz bought the store inFebruary 1980, a time whenthere was a mere 37,000 peopleliving in Cape Coral.

The store had been around formore than a decade prior, knownas Quality Card Shop and thenJune’s Quality Card Shop, beforebeing purchased by Mark andJane.

In those early days, Jane saidthe city emptied out in the sum-mer, a challenge the store sur-vived by printing personalizedcards and selling them in bulk,giving companies discounts ifthey purchased their cards duringthe summer months.

As the years passed, the citygrew, as did the store’s clientele.

Hartz said she’ll miss the cus-

tomers most of all, most of whichshe knows on a first-name basis,some she’s known for the major-ity of her three decades with thestore.

As word spread throughoutthe customer base of the store’sclosing, she said it was almost asif most were in mourning.

It’s that devotion, and passion,Hartz said, that has kept the storegoing.

“It’s been a joy to work withthese customers, and we’ve hadthe best,” she said. “Their loyal,considerate ... it’s heartwarm-ing.”

Mark Hartz passed away fouryears ago, not long afterHurricane Charley laid the storeto waste.

Of course, the store wasrebuilt and lived on,but Jane said she’sbeen thinking ofmaking her exit forsome time.

There won’t be aproblem filling theabundance of freetime, said Hartz,who’s looking for-ward to living whatshe described as a“normal person.”

There’s golf, trav-

el, gourmet cooking, even asports car in Hartz’s self-described future “bucket list.”

But there’s also family, andholidays, something she’s missedout on over the years.

“I have not had Christmaswith my kids on 30 years,” shesaid. “I’m so excited about that ...there’s grandkids, great-grand-kids.”

Hartz also gave credit to heremployees, most of whom areladies that have been with thestore for years.

Hartz described the sales staffas an extended family, one thathas slowly been adjusting to theidea of the store shutting down.

“It was a shock ... they’vebeen here for years. I’ve had suchloyal salespeople. They’re more

like a family and

that’s the way it should be,” shesaid.

Forty percent off sale signsand “store closing” bannersadorned both front and backentrances to the store Thursday.

There was still a steady flowof customers, many coming backagain and again scooping upgreat bargains. Others simplycoming by one last time to sharea smile, a laugh, even a memorywith Hartz and her staff.

Ursula Babucke, a customerof the store since 1992, wasdoing just that, picking up keep-sakes for her shelves at home.

Babucke said she was simplyshocked when she learned thestore would be closing down.

“Everything in my house isfrom June’s Hallmark,” Babuckesaid.

TALLAHASSEE (AP) — AMickey Mouse license platecourtesy of Walt Disney World?How about a tag emblazonedwith McDonald’s golden arches,Nike’s swoosh or, maybe, aCoke or Pepsi logo?

That’s the latest moneymak-ing idea being floated in theFlorida Legislature in these hardeconomic times.

Mike Fasano, chairman of theSenate Transportation and Eco-nomic Development Appropria-tions Committee, said Fridaythat he’s asked his staff to devel-op a piece of legislation thatwould let corporations put theirlogos on Florida license platesfor a price.

“Unique concept, isn’t it?”Fasano said. “People couldchoose from an array of logosfrom Disney World to Pepsi toIBM, the list goes on. ... Peoplemight want to have a choice ofsaying, ‘Hey, that sounds like alot of fun.’”

It also could save them

money.Fasano, R-New Port Richey,

said it would not only be a wayto generate cash for theDepartment of Highway Safetyand Motor Vehicles, but some ofthe proceeds could be used togive discounts to motorists ontheir annual registration fees ifthey opt for the corporate tags.

“My understanding is theycould save up to $30 or $35 ontheir annual license tag fee,”Fasano said. “We don’t knowhow much that would generatebecause it’s just an idea that hascome to our attention.”

Similar legislation has beenfiled in at least one other state.Illinois state Rep. Joe Lyons, D-Chicago, has filed a bill thatwould create tags with the name,likeness or logo of corporationsfrom Illinois.

Besides the signs on inter-state rights of way, Road Rangertrucks patrolling many ofFlorida’s highways to assiststranded motorists are sponsored

by State Farm Insurance andsport the company’s logo. Manycities have buses that double asmoving billboards.

Even the notion of puttingbusiness logos on tags is notentirely new. Florida alreadyoffers nine specialty tags featur-ing professional sports teams.

Motorists, though, don’t getany discounts for their MiamiDolphins, Tampa Bay Bucca-neers or Jacksonville Jaguarstags. In fact, they must pay $25extra.

The teams don’t get thatmoney, but they do get freeadvertising and potentially someindirect benefit. Fifty-five per-cent of the proceeds are used bythe state to attract major sportsevents such as the Super Bowland all-star games. The rest goesto the Florida Sports Foundationfor purposes that include eco-nomic development of the sportsindustry.

Florida license plates maybecome profitable ad space

WASHINGTON (AP) — Theunemployment rate held at 9.7percent in February as employersshed 36,000 jobs, fewer thanexpected. The figures suggestedthe job market is slowly healingbut that significant hiring has yetto occur.

The Labor Department would-n’t quantify how the snowstormsthat hammered the East Coast lastmonth affected job losses.Economists said the storms proba-bly inflated job losses but by lessthan predictions of 100,000 ormore. Without the storms, theeconomy likely would have seen anet jobs gain in February for onlythe second time since the recessionbegan two years ago.

Doubts about last month’s dataarose because the snowstormsoccurred on the same week thatthe government surveys business-es about their payrolls. Employeeswho couldn’t make it to work andweren’t paid weren’t included onthose payrolls.

“It looks like the impact ofweather was not as large as we

thought it would be,” said MarisaDiNatale, an economist atMoody’s Economy.com.

Some economists said the datasuggest that the job market is nowpointed in the right direction andthat the unemployment rate mayhave peaked. Nigel Gault, chiefeconomist at IHS Global Insight,said private employers will likelyadd jobs in March and continue togenerate jobs for the rest of theyear.

Still, hiring is likely to be weakfor much of that time. The reces-sion eliminated about 8.4 millionjobs. And it takes 100,000 newjobs per month just to keep up withpopulation growth and keep theunemployment rate from rising.

Even optimistic economistsdon’t expect employers to addmuch more than 150,000 jobs amonth this year — and not untilthe second half of the year. Gaultexpects the jobless rate will remainabove 9.5 percent by the end of2010.

On Thursday, the Housepassed legislation giving compa-

nies that hire the jobless a tempo-rary payroll tax break. Economistsdoubt, though, that it’ll createmany jobs. President BarackObama and the Democratic Partyare under pressure to address thejobs crisis in a congressional elec-tion year.

“The report today shows alabor market with no momentum,”said Larry Mishel, president of theliberal Economic Policy Institute.“Employment is not growing. Andeven a generous interpretation ofthe snow’s impact suggests thatthe underlying trend is insufficientto drive down unemployment inthe near future.”

Nearly 14.9 million Americansare unemployed — nearly twicethe total when the recession began.The Labor Department revised itsestimate of job losses for Januaryfrom 20,000 to 26,000.

Hiring for the 2010 Censusaccounted for 15,000 jobs lastmonth, the department said. Thegovernment expects to hire 1 mil-lion temporary census workers thisyear.

Parade: Three-day event continues today and Sunday in downtown Cape Coral

Class size: Voter-approved amendment too costly, school officials maintain

ters, 4-year-old Mya and 2-month-oldIzabella, and some friends. Asked whythey decided to check out the event,Grilli said, “because it’s a fair.”

“She wanted to come to the fair andit’s her first time at the fair,” she said,first pointing to Mya and then toIzabella. “Every kid loves a fair.”

Grilli added that they live nearby,which was another draw.

“It’s close. We live right down thestreet,” she said. “It’s good to havesomething close.”

Parents Ryan Begle and MeganCoughlin agreed.

“That’s why we came to this one, wefigured it was less crowded and closer to

home,” Coughlin said, adding that theyare Cape residents.

Begle liked that the carnival was offof Cape Coral Parkway and not on themain road, congesting up traffic. Headded that the carnival should be keptfor the future events.

“I think they should always have it,”Begle said. “Something for the kids todo.”

Gregg and Heather Anson stopped byFriday night with their son, Tyler, andsome friends. Heather Anson said thecarnival was reasonably priced and itwas something to do.

“Tire the kids out,” she said.The close proximity of the event was

also a plus for Anson.

“It was a lot closer, a lot nicer,” shesaid, comparing it to fairs held at the LeeCivic Center. “I wouldn’t drive all theway over there with little kids.”

Anson added that she would recom-mend the event to other parents.

“It gives the family something to dofor all ages,” she said. “There’s notalways something for everyone to do allthe time.”

According to event organizers, eachday will offer live music, and Sunday isaimed at church-goers with the worshipservice and non-secular music during themorning. The parade will feature someof the city’s founding families as thegrand marshals.

Elmer Tabor and Paul Sanborn aresome of the original families rumored tobe leading the parade, which organizerssaid has 50 entries.

state may need to build new classroomsand hire new teachers.

A new bill, sponsored by Sen. DonGaetz, R-Niceville, passed the Ways andMeans Committee Thursday, on a strict-ly party-line vote, and if passed by bothhouses will be placed on November’sballot as another constitutional amend-ment.

This bill offers to expand size limitsby three students in elementary schooland five students in middle and highschool — resulting in caps of 21, 27 and30. It also allows districts to use schoolaverages rather than class averages todetermine if they are in compliance.

Lee County School Board ChairmanSteve Teuber said he supports the bill.

“Class size is going to bankrupt thestate,” said Teuber. “Whatever they needto do politically to give more control tothe school level, I am in support of it.”

Hard economic times are affectingboth school districts and the state. Theamendment was passed nearly a decadeago with the intention of improving edu-cation, yet there’s simply no money tofund it.

Board Member Robert Chilmoniksaid requirements should be eased untilthe economy turns around, otherwiseschool boards would have to consider taxincreases to pay for additional class-rooms or portables.

“I do support the easing of therequirements until we get through thenext two or three years of hard times,”said Chilmonik. “We can’t raise taxes onpeople and that would be an option thedistrict would have to look at.”

In a weekly address to members of theFlorida School Board Association,Executive Director Wayne Blanton saidthat besides the state budget and tyingteacher evaluations to student achieve-ment, the class size amendment is one ofbiggest issues in the 2010 session.

Earlier this week the bill passed theSenate Education Pre-K committee on a6-1 vote, and the House committee aswell, said Blanton. He stressed that theClass Size Amendment is still in play.

“It does not repeal the class sizeamendment,” he said.

The state has already invested a totalof $18 billion in achieving class size

requirements over the last decade — $16billion for operating and $2 billion forcapital outlay, statewide.

For the last two years the Lee CountySchool District has received approxi-mately $80 million in funds to meet therequirements, but with statewide budgetreductions and a loss of local tax rev-enue, it’s been a struggle to achieve fullcompliance.

Even though school districts want tosee the amendment changed, teacher’sunions don’t agree.

Mark Castellano, president of theTeacher’s Association of Lee County,the county’s teacher union, said theFlorida Education Association has giventhe Legislature multiple chances to addflexibility to the amendment.

“They have had the opportunity to dothat and they have rejected it for no goodreason but that they wanted to play poli-tics,” said Castellano.

Union leaders are worried that usingschool averages to determine class sizewill create high school classes with morethan 30 students, but where administra-tors average those numbers against

smaller classes to reach an appropriateschool average. Castellano said this is adisservice to students.

Local school boards have been push-ing for the changes and are worriedabout what will happen in the nextschool year if the amendment continueson its current trajectory.

“If it doesn’t change, and we end updoing what we are supposed to do, theLegislature sure has their hands full,”said Teuber. “It will consume every dis-trict.”

Education experts have claimed thatsmaller class sizes improve student per-formance, yet Chilmonik questionswhether Lee County’s academic benefitsare outweighing the price of the classsize amendment. He said that FCATscores for high school students haven’tincreased dramatically since the amend-ment passed in 2002.

“The class size has been implementedover the last few years and has it shownany improvement?” asked Chilmonik.“In Lee County has there been anyimprovement? No.”

argument, long term, that is probably avalid argument. It’s not very realistic intoday’s market, but it’s definitely possi-ble,” he said of property values, adding,“But I don’t know any taxing authoritiesthat concentrate on lowering the millage.”

The city’s planning and zoning boardhas been tackling the land use changes thisweek, taking public comment and findingways to tweak the land use changes.

Since the P and Z board doesn’t havefinal say on the changes — that falls to citycouncil— it’s unknown how many ofthese tweaks will stick.

Eunice Rofsy, who lives in the EmeraldCove community on Trafalger Parkway,saw the particular land use that wouldaffect her neighborhood fall by the way-side on Friday.

She said that if it hadn’t changed, thepossibility of higher property values do lit-tle to ease her mind.

“I you lived in a big area with one littlehouse and they wanted to build a great bigshopping center, then I could see it,” shesaid. “We would have nothing to gain by it,not on Trafalger. It’s too much of a gam-ble.”

Between 2003 - 2009, the city added3.2 million square feet of commercialspace.

The city does not keep figures on howmuch of that space is occupied.

Local real estate guru Gary Tasmansaid those future commercial zones areneeded for the city.

But for all those people who are think-ing a big box store will be in their backyardtomorrow, they won’t have to worry.

“Clearly they don’t have to worry aboutdevelopment any time soon. That willprobably fall on their grandchildren, andtheir great grandchildren,” Tasman said.

The city is making an effort to classifya lot of the changes as commercial activitycenters, or CAC’s, to give people who ownhomes within these areas more protection.

Should damage occur, homeowners areallowed to rebuild, but new home con-struction would be forbidden.

Christy Vogt, business developmentcoordinator for the city, said that “nine outof 10” times a person would be able torebuild their home.

However, for people who will be infuture commercial professional zones, ahomeowner might not be able to rebuild ifdamage to a home exceeds a certain per-centage.

Domenic Cocolicchio, who owns ahome in the northwest Cape, said land usechanges will probably prevent him frombuying future homes in the Cape.

He said his northwest rental propertywill one day be his retirement home.Currently he resides in Montreal, Quebec.

While he’s not sorry he bought in theCape, he said the idea of increased proper-ty value does little to ease his mind.

“I’ve seen these things in the past, theydon’t give you full value,” he said. “Theytry and squeeze you.”

Commercial and residential land istaxed using the same rate, according to cityspokeswoman Connie Barron.

As it stands, there is no Homestead orlimit to increase or decrease in value ofcommercial property.

The truth of the impact all the forth-coming commercial property will have onthe tax base is unknown, and might not befor two decades.

For people like Nina Yelvington, presi-dent of the Emerald Cove homeownersassociation, is just thankful that her neigh-borhood might be exempted from thosechanges.

“I’m definitely going to vote forAmendment 4,” she said.

Amendment 4, dubbed “HometownDemocracy” would require governmentsto get voter approval for all land-usechanges.

Cape Coral officials are proposing toget the city’s land-use changes approvedahead of that November vote. The city stillwould need state approval, the currentrequirement for comprehensive planchanges.

The festi-val, hosted by the Cape CoralFriends of Wildlife and de-signed to educate families aboutthe city’s official bird and otherwildlife, was scheduled for 10a.m. to 4 p.m., but the poorweather forced it to come to anend around 1 p.m. MichaelOrchin, president of the CapeCoral Friends of Wildlife, saidthis was the first rain-out thefestival has experienced in eightyears. Normally the festivaldraws in 3,000 SouthwestFlorida residents wanting to seethe numerous exhibits andattractions, yet most of thecrowd left shortly after noon.Orchin estimated that between1,200 and 1,300 people stillattended the festival.

Effects of modern

Unimproved lotowners may paypart of utility costs

Cape Coral City Councilcould still look to ownersof unimproved lots tohelp pay down $297million in long-termdebt by charging anassessment or reserva-tion fee. The boardalso hopes to reduceutility rates, which arescheduled to increase 30percent this year and 15percent over thenext three years.The current rate-payers are shoul-dering the burdenfor the stalled utili-

ties expansion project and thenorth RO plant. With a 17 per-cent increase looming inOctober, Mayor John Sullivanpreviously volleyed an idea onhow to reduce the rates bycharging a fee to all propertyowners who have not paidimpact fees for being hooked upto city water, roughly $300 -$400 a year, per property.Concern over the legality of theproposal stalled its progress, butSullivan said Tuesday the ideacould still move forward. “Theremight be ways to overcomethat,” he said of the legality.

Overflow crowdquizzes P&Z aboutland use changes

It was standing room onlyduring Wednesday’s Planningand Zoning meeting as residentspoured out to vent their frustra-tions over proposed land usechanges that would put many oftheir homes squarely in thesights of future commercialdevelopment. The city recentlymailed 30,000 letters to resi-dents whose properties are with-in 500 feet of the proposedchanges. While the number ofpeople that showed forWednesday’s meeting wasn’tnearly as large, almost everyonehad one thing on their mind:what do the changes mean to myproperty? The city is trying topush through the land usechanges ahead of theAmendment 4 issue on theNovember ballot. When, and if,all the proposed changes areapproved, it will represent3,000 total acres of land usechange. A total of 1,274 acreswill be changed to commercialactivity centers, or CAC, and555 acres will be changed tocommercial professional.

Class size amendment passed by committee

A bill to change class sizerequirements passed the Senate'sPolicy & Steering Committee onWays and Means, 15-8, onlythree days after the Legislaturebegan its 2010 session. Ap-proved by voters in 2002, theClass Size Amendment caps thenumber of students per class andgoes into effect this August.School boards from Florida's 67counties have made altering theamendment a priority as districtsstruggle with simply balancingtheir own budgets. The way itreads now all schools have toensure that class size doesn'texceed 18 students in elemen-tary school, 22 students in mid-dle school and 25 students inhigh school by this fall. As aresult, districts across the statemay need to build new class-rooms and hire new teachers.This bill offers to expand sizelimits by three students in ele-mentary school and five stu-dents in middle and high school— resulting in caps of 21, 27and 30. It also allows districts touse school averages rather thanclass averages to determine ifthey are in compliance.

June’s Hallmarkclosing after 30years in business

Thirty years are coming to aclose for Jane Hartz and June’sHallmark.

TThis week the fishing continuesto improve and even thoughthe nights are still very cold,

the day’s sun is becoming more intense.Spring is right around the corner.

We are starting to see limitedamountsof baitmove intothe areaalong withreports ofa smallkingfishmigrationoff thebeaches.Speakingof mack-erel, ifyou don’tknow thebest way

to add a small piece of wire leader toyour fishing line, do yourself a favorand learn the Albright Knot. This knotis easy to tie and a must for Spanishand king mackerel fishing.

Go to www.netknots.com forinstructions on tying this proven knot.Netknots.com is a great animated knottying site that allows you to watchknots being tied and explains in detailtheir uses. Being an animated site youcan watch your new knot being tiedover and over so even the most fumble-fingered angler can learn.

Another great knot informationresource is the DVD produced byMark Sosin. (www.marksosin.com)Another knot that should be masteredby novice anglers is one of the manyvariations of the loop knot. I like thePerfection Loop. I tie all jigs, hardlures, and even flies with this knot.The loop knot allows your lures toperform to their fullest.

As the weather continues to warmtrout fishing should improve greatlyand the fish will return to their normallocations. On warm afternoons theywill be very catchable on the dark-bottomed flats. Right now I am catch-ing them in deeper water south of thepower lines (Matlacha) between float-ing grass mats in 5-6 feet of water.

These last three weeks smaller “rat”reds continue to bite on oyster bars onthe incoming tides and under the bush-es on higher tides. Although some big-ger reds in the 6-8-pound class arebeing caught, most reds are still on thesmall side. Shrimp on a jigheadretrieved slowly along the bottom orshrimp on a circle hook with a smallpiece of shot to help with casting is theticket. I’m a big fan of ladyfish steakson a small circle hook for redfish inany water temperature, but right nowlive shrimp gets the nod.

� Capt. Phil Evans, ofAFishingMission Charters asks, “Is itspring yet?”

We should have had lots of baitinshore by now, but the continuouscold has kept the bait out. The lasttwo weeks have produced trout, red-fish, ladyfish, pompano andsheepshead. I have seen snook, butthey have not been willing to eat andseen some pinfish as well. The waterhas been gin clear. This is a greattime to see what’s under your boatand you won’t have this chance in thesummer. Make mental notes aboutbottom depths, bars, run offs, deepholes and more.

Pine Island Sound has producedseven redfish days this past week andall were over the slot limit. Shrimp onjigs still is your best bait to cast formost gamefish right now.

Kingfish are starting to appear andare not that far offshore with manysmall snakes around now. Try a shortwire leader with your favorite king-fish bait and start your search two,three miles off the beaches.

� Capt. Dick May, of Easy RiderCharters says if you were able tocatch one of the warmer days this pastweek you would have found thatsheepshead were biting well in pro-tected areas along with small redfish.Trout are still hard to come by, butwith the anticipated warming trendtrout fishing should greatly improve.

Steady temps in the 70-degreerange will improve fishing for allspecies. Fishing slow with live shrimpstill is be the bait of choice. Somenice snapper were caught this pastweek in wind-protected canals usinglive shrimp in the deeper holes of thecanals.

Hopefully, winter is over forawhile.

The Island Coast Gators had tocome from behind three separatetimes before claiming an 8-7 victoryover Bishop Verot on a suicidesqueeze play in the eighth inningThursday night.

Two of those comebacks were inthe first three innings, but the thirdwas a character-builder. It started inthe fifth inning when Verot’s D.J.Judge hit a high fly ball down the leftfield line that Gators left fielderNelson Candelaria appeared to gloveas he dove and rolled over in thegrass. He popped up on his knees andheld the ball up in his bare hand, but adelayed call by the home plate umpireruled Judge, standing on second baseby that time, safe.

Back-to-back hits by ThomasDougherty and Josh Garcia producedtwo runs and the Vikings added onemore before the inning was over to goup 6-3.

Left-hander Sean Brady had a rocky firstinning, surrendering six runs, as the Ida BakerBulldogs handed the Cape Coral Seahawkstheir first baseball victory of the seasonFriday night.

The key hit was a two-run double byBrandon Marshall in the first inning that putthe Seahawks in front 3-0 en route to an 8-4triumph over their city and district rivals.

“We just can’t get past that,” said Bulldogscoach Ryan Jackson. “We’ve given up 19runs in the first inning of our four homegames, and you just can’t expect to win gamesdoing that.”

Cain Spangler and Derek Pandolfi con-tributed two hits and Brett Hobaugh collectedthree of the Seahawks’ total of 10 hits.Pandolfi’s drove in a run in the third with one

of their three doubles in the game.“We hit the ball well against Brady,” said

Seahawks coach Mike Gorton. “We’ve beenfocusing on hitting for the last week or so. Toget our first win against Baker is a proudmoment for me because we’ve worked sohard and I respect those guys at Baker.”

Justin Pinto had two hits and Ryan Hutsoncontributed a two-run single in the fourthinning to lead the Bulldogs (3-4), who facethe Seahawks (1-6) in their next gameThursday at Cape High.

The Florida Spring Youth FootballLeague kicks off Saturday at North FortMyers Community Park with area teamsin five age/weight divisions.

North Fort Myers, Fort Myers,Cypress Lake and Cape Coral all are rep-resented in the 8-on-8 league with playersranging in age from 8 to 15. In 2009,only one team represented this area, butthere has been a boom in interest and reg-istrations — more than 200 kids spreadover seven teams— for the 2010 season.Most of the team rosters are full, but a fewopenings remain for a brief time for any-one just finding out about the opportunity.

“We’re absolutely looking forward tothe start of play Saturday,” said FredFeebles, the Fort Myers regional director.“It’s good to see kids get out and dosomething in the spring. Not all kids likebaseball and it gets them out of the houseand off the couch.”

The majority of teams encompass play-ers from the area’s Pop Warner and PoliceAthletic League, but are not tied to thoseorganizations. The league consists of sevenweeks of regular season games plus play-offs, running March 6-May 15, culminat-ing in a state championship game.

Local teams play opponents fromoutside the area representing Tampa,Daytona, North Broward, Lemon Bay,Zephyrhills, Port Charlotte, Venice,New Smyrna Beach and St. Petersburg.

The 8-on-8 game is played on a field40 yards wide by 80 yards long. Thereare no field goals and games consist oftwo 22-minute halves. The first gamestarts at 11 a.m. each Saturday with addi-tional games continuing through 5 p.m.

The five divisions of play are: peeweesfor ages 8-10 with a weight limit of 110pounds; supers for ages 9-11 and 130pounds; midgets for ages 10-12 and 145;JVs for ages 11-14 and 160; and varsityfor ages 12-15 with unlimited weight.

“The kids who play against eachother in Pop Warner get to play togetheron the same team and discover they arejust as competitive,” Feebles said. “It’sa different atmosphere. They get tocompete against some amazing teamsfrom the east coast during the season,not just if they make a championshipgame like the fall leagues.”

HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) —Dale Earnhardt Jr. is on thepole for the first time in near-ly two years. He’s hoping itwill lead to Victory Lane.

Earnhardt claimed thepole Friday night for theKobalt Tools 500 at AtlantaMotor Speedway with ablistering speed of 192.761mph. It is the first timeJunior has taken green atthe head of a Sprint Cupfield since the April 2008race at Texas.

“It’s good to be on thepole and I’m real proud ofit,” Earnhardt said. “Gettinga pole anywhere is good forour team. We’re so hungryto do well on Sunday.”

Mark Martin was thepole-sitter last year in thespring event at Atlanta witha speed of 187.045. Hewent much faster this time(191.814), but it was onlygood enough for fourth.

Kyle Busch (192.280)starts from the outside ofthe front row, beating outJuan Pablo Montoya(192.106). Jeff Gordon(191.774) is fifth, givingHendrick Motorsports threeof the top five spots.

The fourth Hendrickdriver, Jimmie Johnson,managed only the 16th-bestspeed (190.640) on the1.54-mile trioval.

Former Cup regular CaseyMears again failed to qualifyfor his first race of the season.Also failing to crack the 43-car field were Aric Almirolaand Terry Cook.

Despite getting wins intheir previous three games,the Florida Everblades hadbeen playing from behindheading into the third peri-od. It forced them to pulloff near-miraculous come-back victories.

They finally found theanswer Friday night atGermain Arena despite anever-say-never attitude bythe Gwinnett Gladiators.The Everblades stretchedtheir winning streak to fivestraight games, beating theGladiators 7-5 on thestrength of three goals byright wing Dominic Osman,who lead the Blades to theirlargest offensive output onhome ice all season.

“With the number ofGrade-A chances we had,we could have scored adozen,” said Everbladescoach Malcolm Cameron.“We were able to generate alot of offense by going tothe net.”

The teams played aback-and-forth first periodthat ended with Gwinnett inthe lead.

The Gladiators scoredfive minutes into the gameas Tim Miller beat ChrisBeckford-Tseu (32 saves)on the power play.

The Blades answeredafter five minutes of relent-less pressure, tying the

game as Shea Guthrie beatGladiators netminder DavidBrown (31 saves).

Sensing a shift inmomentum, the Gladiatorscame right back to beatTseu again while trying tokill a penalty.

“I wasn’t worried aboutit,” said Cameron. “Wewere generating a ton ofchances so I knew we weregoing to eventually putanother one in.”

Things loosened up forthe Blades over the finaltwo periods of play.

Brady Calla and PhilPaquet scored four minutesapart to give the Bladestheir first lead of the game.

Gwinnett tied the game at3-3, but then Osman got hot.

Osman scored his firstgoal with just 40 secondsleft in the second period togive the Blades the lead forgood.

“All three goals came offhard work,” said Osman.“The first was kind of a gift… (The others) I just foundmyself at the right spot atthe right time.”

Osman’s two power-play goals in the third peri-od were all the Blades need-ed to keep the Gladiators atbay.

The Everblades (32-19-9) and Gladiators (26-26-6) meet one more timeSaturday night at GermainArena.

If, on Thursday, March 4, you sawa man walking in full Lederhosenacross the Midpoint Memorial Bridgefrom Cape Coral, to downtown FortMyers and then to the Shell Factoryin North Fort Myers, don’t be sur-prised.

It’s a popular annual sight thatdelights many, when organizer DonOstrowsky makes his journey to pro-mote the Octoberfest In March event.

The 7th annual celebration will beheld Friday, March 12, throughSunday, March 14, at the ShellFactory & Nature Park in North FortMyers.

The event benefits Cape Coral’sChrist Lutheran Church’s charitableendeavors.

For five years, the church hostedthe event on its property. But itbecame so popular, it moved to theShell Factory to accommodate evenbigger crowds.

“What’s nice about the ShellFactory is the parking and accessibil-ity,” said Ostrowsky. “The bottomline is that by the help of the Cronins(the owners) hosting the event, we’llbe able to give even more back to thecommunity. Without the generosityof Tom and Pam Cronin, this wouldnot be possible. They are very philan-thropic and great friends to the com-munity.”

Returning are some of the biggestnames in the polka genre. Thatincludes three-time grammy winner

Walter Ostanek — known as“Canada’s Polka King.”

There will also be Bob Kravos, thegreat nephew of famed polka masterFrank Yankovic, with Jeff Winardand others groups.

“New this year is the FloridaTropical Squeeze Six-piece SlovenianBand,” said Ostrowsky.

There’s also a Sunday PolkaChurch Service.

“We’re actually bringing thechurch choir in this year, along withSr. Pastor Gary LaCroix, who will dothe service,” he said.

Other sponsors include FOX 4,who will send its popular chief weath-er forecaster Jim Syoen, who will playhis tuba Saturday, March 6 around 6p.m.

Last year’s move to the ShellFactory proved to be a polka success,

according to Ostrowsky. He said therewere about 8,000 guests.

Available will be all authenticGerman foods, schnitzel, sausage,half chicken dinners, potato pancakesand beer.

“Discount coupons are available atthe Shell Factory, sponsor Viles &Beckman or sponsor Cape Coral EyeCenter, who has six locations in thearea,” said Ostrowsky.

There is still room for more ven-dors, he continued.

For more information about the theevent or sponsorship, vendor detailsor more, e-mail him [email protected] or call 940-3212.

Admission is $4 on Friday, $5 onSaturday and Sunday, with $1 offwith available coupons.

PANAMA CITY BEACH, Florida (AP) — The fewbeach walkers, surfers and sidewalk shoppers who ven-tured out on a recent chilly afternoon created a very dif-ferent scene from the craziness that will soon crank upas temperatures climb and vacationing college studentsdescend on this expansive northern Florida beach.

Most U.S. colleges and universities shut down everyyear for what is known as spring break as the cold ofwinter turns to the warmth of spring.

Panama City Beach, on the Gulf of Mexico, is amongthe favorite party spots, and March and April conjureimages of raucous concerts and throngs of barelydressed teens and twenty-somethings cruising the city’sstreets.

Tourism leaders want to change that. They hope toclean up the hard-partying image a bit in time for theMay 23 opening of the Northwest Florida BeachesInternational Airport. It will be the first major airport toopen in the United States since the Sept. 11, 2001, ter-ror attacks.

“The airport is the big, new story of the day,” saysDan Rowe, president of Panama City Beach’sConvention and Visitors’ Bureau. Rowe speaks glow-ingly of the hundreds of new Gulf-front condominiumsthat have replaced dilapidated hotels in recent years anda sprawling beach-front pedestrian shopping center thatopened in 2008.

Spring break is one part of Panama City Beach butshould not define it, Rowe says, urging visitors to checkout the revitalized beach year-round for girls’ weekends,family vacations, romantic getaways and other events.He says the new airport will make it easier for touristsfrom all over to reach this traditionally Southern vaca-tion destination.

“There is a balance we are trying to hit with springbreak. There are folks in our community who wish thespring break would go away, but there are others whodepend on it for a major part of their business,” Rowesays.

For 2010, the city has ended its relationship withconcert promoter mtvU, owned by parent companyMTV, after problems with crowd control at a Lil Waynebeach concert last year. The city council also recentlyvoted to spend $25,000 to hire 24 state police troopersfor extra support on the beach from March 14 to April11.

A drive down the city’s main drag shows both oldkitsch and the more upscale.

The giant monkey and T-Rex of a miniature golfcourse overlook a cleaned-up beach parking lot wherecity signs encourage pedestrians to take a stroll.

Across the street from towering new condominiumdevelopments, are inexpensive T-shirt shops,“Everything $9.99 and Under” stores, package liquoroutlets and novelty sex shops — all catering to thespring break crowd.

Among those counting on spring break is PerryHand, who owns Classic Scooter Rentals. The dozens ofcolorful motor scooters lined up in front of his storeswill soon be rented out to vacationing students.

He has seen constant change in 15 years of beachbusiness.

“It’s out with the old and in with the new,” he said.“The old is the kids and the cheap motels, the new is theadults and the condos.”

But Hand predicts spring break will never leavePanama City Beach for good.

“There are too many businesses that depend on it andpromote it,” he says.

A quick check of the Internet and Twitter postingsgives a hint of the madness that will soon hit this 17-mile (28-kilometer) stretch of white sand and turquoiseblue ocean.

Photos show condominiums with dozens of studentshanging out of every balcony, beaches crammed withpartying kids and packed night clubs. Travel sites cater-ing to college students offer package deals to PanamaCity Beach and Twitter is abuzz with talk of springbreak and students planning caravans and arranging toshare rooms when they head south.

“It’s affordable compared to Cancun or Acapulco,and you’ve got the (night) clubs. A lot of other placeslike Fort Lauderdale and Daytona Beach, they haven’twanted the kids for a long time. Panama City Beach stillhas stuff going,” said Matt Scriven, sales director forPardiseParties.Com, an online travel site that caters tocollege students. Scriven has booked trips for hundredsof college students who plan to spend their spring breaksin Panama City.

University of Georgia junior Daniel Burnett will beamong the thousands of students making the trip southfor spring break. It will be Burnett’s fifth spring breaktrip to Panama City Beach — he started the annual pil-grimage in high school.

This year, he will caravan with a group of buddiesduring the five-hour trip.

Panama City is not as expensive as places in Mexico,and it always is a good time, he said.

Burnett says the biggest draw for him is not theclubs, the concerts or the condominiums; it’s the beach.

“It’s just so much fun to hang out there on the beachwith your friends. I look forward to it all year,” he said.

Tomorrow brings a rush ofchange to the cosmic landscape.But for now, the Sagittarius moonholds us in rapt anticipation of allthe adventure and fun that willoccur. Develop a vision of howyou want life to go in the nextthree days. Replay it in yourmind. Your dream will affect theoutcome of events you don’t evenhave a direct influence over.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).It’s easier to be generous withstuff than it is to be generous ofspirit. That’s why you value a cer-tain person’s heart and friendshipso highly, and why you strive toreturn equally benevolent andselfless acts.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).Things weigh you down andmake you feel emotionally bur-dened. Use what you have, andhave only what you can use. Ifyou buy something, give some-thing else away.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).A family member needs assis-tance. This person may ask youfor money, but that’s not the idealthing to give. Helping someonelearn how to make money will befar better than lending it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).Your thoughts are telegraphed toall you meet and will especially

radiate through your eyes. So takehold of your mind’s messagingsystem, and look on those aroundyou with kindness and compassion.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).You’ll witness full-grown adultsresorting to the antics that chil-dren fall to when they are tryingto convince someone to buy thema toy. This stunning immaturitywill give you a chance to honeyour managing skills.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Ifit feels as though you are doing allthe work for little reward, well,you may just have a point there.Keep in mind that the sweetestrewards in life are often the onesthat take the longest to be deliv-ered.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Anew slang term finds its way intoyour vocabulary. This willimpress your friends. You have areputation of being one step aheadof the competition, and this is justanother reason why.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).People are always jealous of thegifted and beautiful. Knowing thatdoesn’t eliminate your hurt feel-ings, but it should ease the sting.Just keep being who you are, anddon’t worry what others think.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). A friend of a friend

keeps reaching outto you. You arewary of the motivesthat may be involvedhere, though it islikely that this per-son wants nothingmore than the fun ofyour attention.

CAPRICORN(Dec. 22-Jan. 19).You consistentlystrive to be the verybest at everythingyou do. You mightnot always prevail,but no one can sayanything about yourlack of will. Today,your go-getting paysoff.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18). Your usually steady counte-nance is being rattled by a fear ofthe unknown. No, change isn’tyour favorite thing. Just dressyour best, and count on your witsand experience to guide you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).There is no way to tell whetheryou are winning or losing exceptto decide which one it is and callit that. Anyway, you are the onlyone qualified enough to judgeyour life’s success.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY(March 6). You speak modestly,

but you have bigplans this year, andyour follow-throughwill be nearly impec-cable. By April, amajor project isalready under way.Friendships spice upJune and July.You’ll see a differentpart of the world inAugust. Family joinsyour efforts, and thelifestyles of allimprove inNovember. Leo andLibra people adoreyou. Your luckynumbers are: 9, 30,13, 22 and 24.

ASTROLOGI-CAL QUESTIONS:

“Do solar eclipses serve any astro-logical purpose other than inspir-ing awe in people?”

Why, yes! A solar eclipseoccurs when the moon passesdirectly between Earth and thesun, blotting out all but the sun’scorona (halo of light). At thistime, with the sun and moon inclose proximity (called “conjunc-tion”), the moon is in its “new”phase. All new moons are power-ful, but the new moon during asolar eclipse packs an extra-strongpunch. It’s like getting a triplebooster shot of energy. So whatare you supposed to do with allthis firepower? Put it to use mak-

ing your wishes come true! Thinkabout whatever it is that you mostdesire. True love? Starting yourown business? Maybe moving tosomeplace more exciting or morepeaceful than where you are now?Whatever it is, the very best timeto initiate this heartfelt endeavor isduring a solar eclipse, when theuniverse is giving you two thumbsup. The next solar eclipse is onJuly 11, 2010, in the sign ofCancer, so start thinking nowabout what action you can take onthat day.

CELEBRITY PROFILES:Perhaps Eva Mendes was firstnoticed in the media for being“super-hot.” However, she hassince earned a reputation as a seri-ous actress, adept at both comedyand drama. Having won therespect of some of the best direc-tors in Hollywood, this Pisces starwill continue to rise. WithMercury, Venus and Jupiter inAquarius, she can’t help but bringsomething fresh to the big screen.

Annual Strawberry Festival next weekendat Diplomat Wesleyan

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:Every year for the past fiveyears, I go to Colorado with agroup of friends to ski. Thisyear, my skiing lasted onlythree days. I developed painon the thumb side of my rightwrist. It was so bad I couldn’thold on to a ski pole.

I found a doctor who wasstaying at the same place Iwas. He said I had skier’sthumb and told me I shouldstop skiing. I did. Now, 10days later, my wrist still hurts.What should I be doing for it?

No one in my skiing groupnor I had ever heard of this.

— T.C.ANSWER: Skier’s thumb

has many other names. One isde Quervain’s disease, andanother is Washerwoman’sdisease (the name picked byDr. de Quervain). Strangely, ithappens to pregnant women,too. I don’t know why.

It’s an inflammation of the tendons thatmove the thumb. They’re the same tendonsused for a firm grasp on ski poles.

Tendons are bundles of collagen fibers.Collagen is a body protein used for supportand as the substance in many tissues thatrequire constant motion. It’s the stuff ofscars. Collagen has lots of water in it.Inflamed tendons lose water, and they can’ttolerate the constant stress that they usuallyput up with. They have to regain theirwater, something that happens only withrest. A wrist splint will help you rest thosetendons during the day.

Ice the painful area for 15 minutes everyfour hours. If icing doesn’t bring relief,switch to heat. Tylenol or a nonsteroidalanti-inflammatory medicine (Aleve, Advil,Motrin) eases the pain.

You should be free of pain in threeweeks or so. If things haven’t resolved bythen, you must see a doctor. Other condi-tions have similar symptoms.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I vaguelyrecall you writing about this before, but Iwonder if you would repeat it. It’s the ideathat a person can get rid ofmore fat by doing light exer-cises. The idea interests me

if it’s true. I remember youwere not too in favor of this,but I can’t remember why.Why not? — H.L.

ANSWER: It is an appeal-ing idea, but doesn’t makesense to me.

It is true that low-intensityexercise burns more fat thandoes high-intensity exercise.Close to 50 percent of energyburned in light exercise comesfrom fat stores.

With high-intensity exer-cise, the kind that leaves youpanting, more energy comesfrom glycogen, stored bodysugar.

But the arithmetic tells thestory. Say you burn 200 calo-ries in light exercise. Fiftypercent of those calories comefrom fat, so you have burned100 calories of fat.

With intense exercise,around 40 percent of energy is

furnished by fat-burning. If you burn 500calories doing intense exercise, 40 percentof those calories come from fat — 200calories. The high-intensity exercise is theclear winner when it comes to fat-burning.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My sonplayed in two basketball competitions, oneright after the other. When they were over,I took him for pizza. He ate an entire largepizza. He also got sick after doing so. Hethrew up. He thinks he had food poisoning.I think he ate too much too fast. What doyou think?

— M.G.ANSWER: I don’t think it was food

poisoning. Food poisoning seldom happensso quickly after eating.

Overeating immediately after exhaust-ing exercise makes some people sick. Theexplanation is that the buildup of lactic acidthat comes during hard exercise hasn’tcompletely dissipated. It makes some peo-ple sick to their stomachs.

Dehydration is another explanation.Stuffing lots of food into a body that’s shorton fluids can also cause nausea and vomit-ing.

Dear Annie: My mother-in-law has a heart of gold andalways tries to help out —even when it is not welcome.

My husband is in the mil-itary, and I’m a stay-at-homemom. When he leaves ondeployment, his mother takescharge of his bills anddecides how much of anallowance I get for groceries,gas, etc.

I have told my husbandthat I would like him to giveme control of my own house.I know he tells his motherthis, but she either won’t lis-ten or doesn’t understand. Ihave no idea how to talk toher about this, and his nextdeployment is in a couple ofmonths. Any suggestions?

— Overwhelmed Daughter-in-Law

Dear Overwhelmed:How does his mother getaccess to his bills? Are his paychecks com-ing to her? Since talking to Mom doesn’thelp, your husband must set things up sothat his income and household bills comedirectly to you. If you are living withMom, he can open a post office box orhave you pay some of the bills online. Hemust be willing to do this, or the situationwill not change. Unless, of course, themoney for these bills is coming out ofMom’s pocket. In that case, she has everyright to manage the household and giveyou an allowance.

Dear Annie: My dad is in his 70s andis way past obese. He is so big, he becomesbreathless walking from one room toanother. Even when he is sitting, you canhear him fighting to breathe normally.

There are many siblings in our family.When we have holiday get-togethers, wesee what is happening and grow increas-ingly upset about Dad’s overall health.Mom says she tries to control his foodintake during the year, but he continues toget bigger and bigger. Since he refuses to

talk about the issue, mybrother wrote him a long let-ter telling him all of our con-cerns. Dad thanked him forthe letter and then neverspoke about it again.

My problem is, I can bare-ly speak to him, let alonelook at him. I think he isbeing very selfish by doingnothing to help himself. Oneof these days, he will leaveour mother alone, and in themeantime, we have to watchhim slowly kill himself.

Both of my parents readyour column daily, so yourperspective would be appre-ciated.

— Son of a Portly PopDear Son: Please try to

forgive your father for find-ing his weight too over-whelming and depressing tofix. It is so difficult for him tomove that exercise seems out

of the question, and he has become fatalis-tic about his chances for survival, so whybother to eat properly? Part of his breath-ing difficulties may also be due to othermedical or psychological causes, althoughhis size undoubtedly exacerbates whateverelse is going on.

Dad should first see his doctor. PerhapsMom would be willing to talk to a nutri-tionist about healthy meals that will fillhim up without filling him out. You alsocan suggest that she (or one of you) askDad to come on a slow, short walk afterdinner to encourage him to move a little bitmore. But if none of this works, it servesno purpose to be angry, because stress willonly make it worse. Right now, this is thebest he can do.

Skier’s thumb not for skiers only

By DAVID YOUNT Scripps Howard News Service

In hard times like these, churchesconfront the material problems oftheir members. The current economicrecession has left a significant numberof Americans unemployed. Clearly,the jobless need more than just uplift-ing sermons.

Roswell United Methodist Churchin suburban Atlanta offers a JobNetworking ministry, which attractsmore than 400 unemployed people ofall faiths to its weekly two-hour gath-erings. Workshops help participantscompose effective resumes and devel-op persuasive interview tactics. Thosewho have been unemployed longestare given gift cards for food and gas.

Bayside Covenant, an 11,000-member megachurch in suburbanSacramento, Calif., offers four-dayworkshops in a section of the statesuffering 12 percent unemployment.

Cindy Hall, a minister at the FirstBaptist Church in Sanford, N.C.,offers a support group for the unem-ployed. Local employers prefer listingjob openings with her rather thanthrough the local newspaper’s classi-fied ads.

Churches rejoice when a memberfinds a job. But they also teach theunemployed to make changes in theirlives to become better, more reliableworkers.

Meanwhile, as the economy strug-

gles to rebound, small businessesshould not be afraid to use their reli-gion to guide their work and reassurecustomers.

Americans move, on average,every five years to a new community.As newcomers, they face a problemthat can’t be solved by the YellowPages alone. Even the most adept do-it-yourselfers must locate professionalrepairmen and service personnel onwhom they can depend.

Ideally, we rely on wise neighborsto recommend plumbers, electricians,auto mechanics, heating and air-con-ditioning services, TV and appliancerepairmen, installers, cleaners, pestcontrollers, landscapers, painters andall-around handymen.

Still, it has taken my wife and memore than 30 years at our currentaddress to find more than a handful offair, reliable service men and women.We could only cross our fingers whenwe had our roof replaced, and fence,flooring and decks installed.

Fortunately, small businesses inmany American communities areincreasingly confronting this problemby listing their services, with guaran-tees, in small printed directories,promising fair prices and timely work.For many years my family frequenteda family-owned TV sales and service

store because it advertised its work ashonest. They were evangelicalChristians, and their work was anexpression of their religious faith.

More recently we found an inde-pendent auto service and repair shopwhose owners guarantee their workby their religious faith.

In our largeVirginia county, smallbusinesses offering a wide variety ofservices now advertise their work ascarrying a “superguarantee” that cov-ers the first $500 of labor costs. “Getthe job done right, or we’ll step in andhelp to make it right,” they promise,without trumpeting their religiousfaith.

Tradition has it that Jesus’ humanfather made his living as a carpenterand taught the trade to his son. It’s fairto speculate that the residents ofNazareth were happy with the work ofJoseph & Son.

TOP PICKSSATURDAY

9 p.m. on LIFEMovie: No Reservations

With its restaurant theme, it’s little wonder if this enjoyable roman-tic comedy makes you hungry. Catherine Zeta-Jones plays a workaholic chef who gets the “Baby Boom” treatment when she is given custody of her late sister’s young daughter (Abigail Breslin). She also must contend with a new sous-chef (Aaron Eckhart) who has an interest in her beyond her kitchen skills.

8 p.m. on AMCMovie: The Godfather, Part II

This 1974 drama is that rarest of gems: a movie sequel that is actually better than the original. Sadly, the winning streak didn’t continue into Part 3, but never mind; sit back and enjoy the good-ness of 2, which flashes back to Vito Corleone’s early days in 1920s New York. Robert De Niro won an Oscar for his perfor-mance as the young don. Al Pacino returns as Michael Corleone, now running the family’s criminal empire from Lake Tahoe, Nev.

8 p.m. on FAMMovie: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Walt Disney’s wife, Lillian, supposedly cautioned him that “No one’s ever gonna pay a dime to see a dwarf picture,” but Uncle Walt followed his instincts and made movie history with this 1937 animated adaptation of a Brothers Grimm fairy tale, which the American Film Institute named the greatest American animated film of all time in 2008. Songs include “Whistle While You Work,” ”Heigh-Ho” and “Some Day My Prince Will Come.”

9 p.m. on WFTXAmerica’s Most Wanted: America Fights Back

Next time you find yourself thinking that good TV never lasts, consider “AMW.” It’s in its 23rd season and celebrating a mile-stone tonight: its 1,000th episode. It’s led to the captures of more than 1,100 fugitives, but host John Walsh won’t rest on his lau-rels; as long as there are bad guys to find and viewers to call in tips, those numbers will keep going up.

SAVING PRIVATE RYAN

By TERRY MATTINGLY Scripps Howard News Service

In one of Hinduism’s mostsacred poems, the lord and sus-tainer of the universe chooses tobe incarnated in human form —the ancient term is “avatar” — tohelp the Pandava people fight evilinvaders and defend what is right.

In director James Cameron’sblockbuster “Avatar,” a U.S.Marine is transformed by technol-ogy into a blue-skinned warrioron a planet called Pandora, wherehe helps the Na’vi people fightevil invaders and defend theirsacred lands and traditions.

There seem to be some simi-larities in these epics.

“The ancient Hindu scriptureshave forever reiterated that when-ever the world would be on thebrink of disaster and mankindfaces extinction, whenever thevessel of sin is about to spill overto create death and destruction,the divine Lord Vishnu would...manifest himself in mortal, pal-pable form to save mankind fromthe impending doomsday,” notedthe Bengali director Sudipto

Chattopadhyay, at the Passionand Cinema weblog.

When evaluating Cameron’smovie, he added, one thing isclear. “The use of the wordAvatar hence could never be anaccident. ... The Avatar is meantto be the savior, the messiah ofhis own race and people.”

It was that kind of year at themultiplex, with a parade of filmsrolling through theaters contain-ing obvious religious images,messages, themes and characters.This made it both easy and hardfor the Beliefnet.com team toselect nominees for its annualBest Spiritual Film award.

“It’s difficult to pinpointexactly what a spiritual film is,since people have their own ideasas to what spirituality is,” saidDena Ross, the web site’s enter-tainment editor. “We define it as afilm which makes a seriousattempt to grapple with the bigquestions in life: Why are wehere? Why is there evil and suf-

fering? Is there a God? Why dobad things happen to good peo-ple?”

This year, she said,Beliefnet.com made a consciousdecision to nominate “moreovertly religious films” for theBest Spiritual Film prize. A sec-ond category — BestInspirational Film — focused onmovies with uplifting messages,but few specific religious ele-ments.

“We had so many amazingmovies this time with strong ref-erences to religion,” said Ross. “Imean, ‘A Serious Man’ is about adevout Jewish man. ‘The Stoningof Soraya M’ deals with seriousMuslim issues. ‘The Blind Side’is about an evangelical family thatis practicing its faith.”

Due to the historic success of“Avatar” — $700 million-plus atthe domestic box office — therewas a chance that Cameron’s 3Dmyth would get the Best SpiritualFilm nod from both the judges

and the web site’s readers.Instead, the judges selected

“The Road,” a bleak drama basedon Cormac McCarthy’s novel. Ittold the story of a father whoteaches his son to remain “one ofthe good guys” while “carryingthe fire” — a metaphor for hopeand faith — in a post-apocalypticworld dominated by murderersand cannibals. The boy is shownpraying for God’s help, and keepsstriving to help the people theymeet.

To the surprise of theBeliefnet.com team, their readersthen picked “The Blind Side” asthe year’s top spiritual film. Infact, 62 percent of the votes wentto the real-life story of footballstar Michael Oher’s journey froma Memphis ghetto into the homeof a rich Christian family that, lit-erally, adopted him as a son.“Avatar” got 18 percent.

Meanwhile, Pixar’s “Up” waschosen as the Best InspirationalFilm. It told the story of a crotch-ety old man who soars away on anadventure inspired by devotion tohis recently deceased wife. Along

the way, he forms a strong bondwith a young boy who remindshim that his life still has purpose.

“Up” was another hit for Pixar,earning nearly $300 million atthe box office, while “The BlindSide” shocked Hollywood with atotal gross of nearly $250 mil-lion, with most of those ticketsselling in the American heartland.

“In past years, we’ve goneback and forth trying to find filmsthat fit our definitions. But thistime it was much easier with all ofthese big, successful films thatdealt with spiritual issues,” saidRoss. “Maybe it’s a sign of thetimes. In hard times, people maybe looking for these kinds ofuplifting stories. It seems theywent to movie theaters lookingfor something to inspire them.”

Dutch gay groups andCatholic parish call for end to dispute over Communion

AMSTERDAM (AP) — Dutch gayrights groups have called for an end toprotests against a Roman Catholic parishsouthwest of Amsterdam after the churchsaid it would no longer seek to bar gaysfrom taking Holy Communion.

The Sint-Jan church in Den Bosch saidbelievers will decide on their ownwhether they should receive the sacra-ment.

Mass at the church Sunday was dis-turbed by protests. The demonstrationsbegan last month after an openly gay manin a nearby village was chosen for aprominent role during Dutch carnival cel-ebrations but was refused Communion byhis local priest — offending many in thevillage.

Most Dutch people support gay rights.The Catholic Church teaches that gayrelationships are “intrinsically disor-dered.”

Cheatham County settlesreligion-in-schools case

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — TheCheatham County schools have agreed tostop teachers and officials from promot-ing religion during school hours.

The American Civil Liberties Unionof Tennessee announced the settlementafter the school board approved the dealin a vote Monday night.

“Now the students of Cheatham

County can exercise their Constitutionalright to make religious decisions withtheir families and faith communities, freefrom fear of coercion by school officials,”ACLU cooperating attorney GeorgeBarrett said in a news release.

ACLU-TN Executive Director HedyWeinberg has said not all religious dis-plays in school violate the Constitution,but to be legal it cannot be compulsoryand must be student-led.

Representatives of the school districtdid not return phone calls seeking com-ment Tuesday.

The ACLU sued the Cheatham Countyschools last November after six months ofnegotiations failed.

The Catholic church in Germany —where around 30 percent of people con-sider themselves Catholic — has apolo-gized for the incidents, but already thereare calls for the government to take actionbecause most of the cases date back to the1970s and 1980s, beyond the reach ofstatutes and prosecution.

The first accusers came forward amonth ago in Berlin. Since then, the listof schools and victims who say they werescarred and haunted by alleged abuses hasgrown.

First it was seven alumni of the presti-gious Canisius Kolleg prep school inBerlin. Then it was Aloisius Kolleg inBonn and then St. Blasien, another Jesuit-run boarding school in the Black Forestas well as other Catholic schools inHamburg, Goettingen and Hildesheim.

Just days ago, the renowned boardingschools Ettal Monastery and St. Ottilienin Bavaria made headlines when allega-tions about child molestation byBenedictine priests there surfaced. Thetotal number of alleged victims hasreached at least 150.

Ursula Raue, an attorney appointed bythe Jesuit religious order to handle thecharges, told The Associated Press shehas been overwhelmed by the number ofcases that flood her inbox and answeringmachine daily.

“This whole case has taken on adimension of unbelievable proportions,”she said.

Raue said she “heard from mothers,sisters and brothers, whose children orsiblings took their own lives or cannotfunction in daily life because of deep psy-chological scars.”

The majority of the victims are male,because most of the schools involvedadmitted only boys aged 10 to 19 at thetime the abuse took place. Many victimshave never talked to their wives or friendsabout the incidents because “they stillfeel ashamed when the memories ofhumiliation and powerlessness come backand when they realize that none of thoseold wounds have healed,” Raue said.

Miguel Abrantes, now 37 and an actorin Duesseldorf, is one of the few victimsable and willing to speak out about theabuse and humiliation he suffered as an11-year-old boy at Aloisius Kolleg.

He said every morning, the boys had toundress and Father Ludger Stuepersprayed them with cold water from thehose, front and back. He said the boysalso had to lie down on Stueper’’s couchwhere the priest would take their temper-ature — rectally for seven minutes.

And then there were the photos."One time Stueper took pictures of a

friend and me while we were in the show-er. He also made us go outside and wehad to pose naked for him, lean againststones and trees in the park, the foamfrom the shampoo still in our hair,”Abrantes said.

While the focus of the sex abuse scan-dal in the Catholic church centered on theUnited States for several years, abusescandals have in recent years erupted inother countries as well, including Ireland,the Philippines, Poland, Mexico, Italy,Canada and elsewhere.

Neither the pope nor the Vatican hasmade any specific remarks about theabuse scandal in Germany, a Vaticanspokesman, the Rev. Ciro Benedettini,said, but he added that Benedict’s previ-ous statements on other such scandals —including most recently about Ireland —are certainly valid for Germany.

A Vatican statement last month, after acrisis meeting with Irish bishops, saidBenedict called the sexual abuse of chil-dren “not only a heinous crime, but also agrave sin which offends God and woundsthe dignity of the human person createdin his image.”

So far, the victims have identified 12Jesuit priests by name and, in some cases,accused women, Raue said, adding thatshe had not yet found out if all of theaccused were still alive.

In the U.S. and elsewhere, some mem-bers of Catholic women’s religious ordershave been accused of molesting children,however claims against women have beenrare.

Among the accused is Stueper, the for-mer director of the Aloisius Kolleg,whom several alumni have charged hadthem pose against their will for nude pho-tos or forced them to perform oral sex.

The Revs. Peter Riedel and WolfgangStab, who both taught at Canisius Kollegin the 1970s and 80s, have been accusedof serial sexual abuse there and at otherCatholic youth institutions in Germany,Mexico, Chile and Spain, where theywere transferred later in their lives,according to a report Raue published lastmonth.

Only in two cases have prosecutorsopened investigations: The allegations atAloisius Kolleg and claims against amember of the Benedictine-run boardingschool in Ettal.

Bonn prosecutors are investigating thecase of a student who is currently stillenrolled at Aloisius Kolleg and wasallegedly abused by Stueper in 2005.Stueper, 82, is living at a nursing homeand is reportedly suffering from demen-tia.

Several German lawmakers, includingJustice Minister Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger, have called for anextension of the statute of limitations, andthe German Bishops Conference recentlyissued a statement apologizing for theincidents. They have appointed a specialcommissioner for all questions regardingsexual abuse of children within thechurch, but have not announced any fur-ther consequences.

Archbishop Robert Zollitsch, the headof the German Bishops Conference, hasreacted defensively to growing criticismof the Catholic church.

“Sexual abuse of children is not a spe-cific problem of the Catholic church. Ithas neither to do with celibacy, nor withhomosexuality nor with Catholic sexualdoctrine,” Zollitsch told weekly Welt amSonntag earlier this week.

For the victims, dialogue with theschools and reform within the CatholicChurch are among the most importantdemands. So far, only few calls for com-pensation payments were made.

“I do want to forgive, but every time Itry to get in touch with officials from myold school or the Jesuits in order to estab-lish some kind of communication, I justget turned away,” said Georg K., whoasked that his last name does not get men-tioned publicly to protect his privacy.

Georg K., who works in advertising,said that Stueper forced him to have oralsex during the time he was a student fromsixth to 10th grades at Aloisius Kolleg inthe 1980s. He did not want to elaboratefurther on the abuse, indicating the mem-ories were too painful.

“I have to live with this humiliationevery day of my life,” the 40-year-oldtold AP by telephone from Munich. “It isdisappointing and it pains me, that I runagainst a wall of silence every time I wantto talk to them.”

REAL ESTATE

Q: Bob, I have written you several times in regards tothis subject— any hope? Our question is we are retiring inless than 4 years. Should we pay off our mortgage beforewe retire?

— Sam & Marsha M.A: Should you pay off your mortgage before you

retire? Past generations of Americans almost always payoff their mortgages before retiring?

Past generations— almost ALLof them— paid off their completemortgage before retiring.

Today, more than a third ofhouseholds headed by someoneaged 65 to 74 still have mortgages.

Having debt means living withfinancial risks. What is the bestoption and when/how do youdecide what to do?

If you can afford to pay off yourfinancial mortgage in a lump sumwithout decimating your savingsconsider whether you will benefit more from keeping themoney where it is or keeping it is to pay off the mortgage.

If your savings are mostly in stocksYour investments might earn 6 to 8 percent per year,

on average, although there is no guarantee that yourreturns won’t fall short of that, or even lose value.Meanwhile, your mortgage rate is likely below 6 percent.Add in the tax deductibility of the interest portion of yourmortgage payments, and you might be better off keepingyour investments than paying off your mortgage— unlessthe idea of not owning your home outright in retirementkeeps you up at night.

If you have a significant portion of your savings in low-interest CDs, money-market funds or conservative bondfunds, it is probably better to pay off your mortgage.

TRAPS: If you need to take a large withdrawal from anIRA or 402(k) to payoff a mortgage, that could trigger abig tax bill and rob you of years of tax-deferred invest-ment growth, so try to avoid that step.

Again, beware: Check whether your mortgage lenderwill impose a “prepayment penalty.” These are most com-mon when loans are less than five years old.

If you cannot pay off your mortgage out of your sav-ings all at once you have several options:

■ Accelerate your monthly payments and pay off yourmortgage before retirement. If your mortgage is not com-pletely paid off by your retirement date, however, it usu-ally does not make sense to continue to make the acceler-ated payments. The early years of retirement is whenretirees are most likely to be healthy and eager to enjoytheir freedom.

It would be a shame to spend these years scrimping tomake unnecessarily large mortgage payments, only tofind, potentially, that your no longer healthy enough toenjoy your retirement when the mortgage is paid off.

■ Refinance the existing balance to shrink your month-ly mortgage payments. Refinancing it to a new 30-yearfixed-rate will spread your remaining debt over threedecades. If your current mortgage has less than 15 yearsremaining, that could cut your monthly mortgage bill byhalf or more, assuming you can find an attractive interestrate. You will have to pay closing costs on this new loan.Still this is an appropriate alternative if your current mort-gage payments are large enough to significantly detractfrom the quality of life. And as always-please check withyour attorney or people in the business, YOU TRUST.

By MAUREEN GILMER Scripps Howard News Service

A beautiful backyard treeladen with ripe fruit is the epito-me of the American dream. Likeso many dreams, though, the idealis far simpler than the reality. Anordinary landscape tree need onlyproduce leaves, but a fruit treemust do far more than that.Before a crop of fruit is edible,the tree must flower, become pol-linated, set fruit and ripen fully.

Choosing the right kind of treeis vital to whether the process issuccessful. This is why plantingthe one-variety-fits-all, mass-market packaged fruit trees canlead to failure. If you’re going toinvest many years in this tree, it’simportant to make your selectioncarefully.

First, learn what kinds of treesare known producers in your areafor optimal compatibility — youdon’t want to fight the climate.For example, apples are commonin Washington state and peachesdo well in Georgia.

Second, determine the natureof your winter. Certain fruit treessuch as cherry trees require expo-sure to a certain number of hoursbelow 45 F between Novemberand mid-February. This is calledtheir “chilling requirement.” If atree needs 150 hours minimumchilling, your climate must be atthat required temperature for atleast that many hours. While thetree may grow with less chilling,it will not thrive, nor will it pro-duce reliable crops.

Once you’ve zeroed in on thekind of fruit, consider the exact

variety to further narrow downyour choices. For centuries,breeders have been developingfruit for its size and flavor. Theyalso breed for better adaptation tocertain local climate conditions.One aspect of this is bloom time,which is expressed as early, mid-season or late.

Gardeners who live in regionswith sporadic late frost or snowoften find the flowers or the form-ing fruit irreparably weather-damaged. Late-season rains canprevent bees from flying at peaktimes, which interferes with polli-nation. If an early bloomer isplanted in those regions, it mayflower abundantly but never pro-duce fruit.

The best way to find your localchilling requirements and optimalbloom time is to contact a localfull-service garden center. Theyorder their fruit trees by varietalname for every season. Theyknow what works locally andgenerally maintain a vested inter-est in happy, satisfied customers.Master Gardeners at www.mas-tergardeners.com is another reli-able source of information.

Another characteristic youmight want to consider is size.Grafting allows growers to pro-duce the same variety in three dif-ferent sizes: standard, semi-dwarfand dwarf. All three produce thesame size of fruit. Planting thesmaller sizes allows you moretrees in less space, so each onecan offer a different kind of fruit.

Be sure to note whether thetree is self-fertile or if it needs apollinator nearby to set fruit. Apollinator must bloom at the sametime for cross-pollination. Ifthere’s no recommendation on thelabel, consult a professional.

The problem with big chainstores is that large national grow-ers supply their fruit-tree stocks.They don’t have the ability tofocus on varieties that best suitthe micro-local conditions. Thismakes it harder for novices tochoose a good tree to invest yearsin the making.

The best way to buy a tree isbare-root because it costs a frac-tion of what a container-grownfruit tree costs. The roots are alsominimal, so when growth begins,they get a good start on a deep,expansive root system.

Growing fruit trees in yourbackyard or in an orchard is oneof the most rewarding and deli-cious organic-gardening projects.Select the right one or two thisspring so that you and your fami-ly can discover the greatAmerican dream.

How to make your landscape more fruitful

SCRIPPS HOWARD NEWS SERVICE/COURTESY USDAThe Southeast and California are famous for their finepeach orchards.

I have often been asked if hav-ing a home inspection is necessaryand worth the cost. I think it isimportant to identify what types ofinspections would be consideredprudent. Regardless of the age ofthe subject property, a termiteinspection should always be per-formed. We live in a tropical envi-ronment (although this winteryou’d never believe it). In additionto the termite inspection, a generalinspection should be performed bya competent home inspector. Manytimes, this same inspection compa-ny also does the termite inspectionfor an additional cost.

The general inspection isolatesvarious components of the proper-ty. For example, all of the electri-cal outlets are tested to make sureall are performing to standard.The air conditioning is tested bymeasuring temperatures at thevents. The heating system is also tested. Ifthere are ceiling fans in the house, these aretested operationally also. All faucets and toiletsare checked for leaks and proper flow. All win-dows and doors will be checked to make surethey open and close properly.

The inspector will test appliances to deter-mine their working condition. This usuallyrequires the inspector to run the washingmachine and dishwasher through an entirecycle. The garbage disposal is also checked,along with the clothes dryer. Refrigerator anddishwasher seals are checked for leakage. Theburners on the stove and oven will be turned onto make sure they are working properly, alongwith the microwave. If a house has mechanicalor electrical storm shutters, they too are testedfor functionality. Once all of the basic electri-cal components are tested inside the house, theinspector will move to the exterior. If the prop-erty is waterfront and has a dock with electrici-ty, those circuits will also be tested.

Next, the inspector will move up to the atticspace of the home and look for evidence of dryrot, mold, or obvious roof leaks. Rememberthat not all home inspectors are qualified to doroof inspections. This may require a separateinspection by a licensed roofing contractor.However, it is not uncommon that some homeinspectors are also licensed general contractors.

Many times, if a buyer is financing theacquisition, the home owner’s insurance carriermay require a wind mitigation test. This iswhere the entire roof system is test-ed to determine its integrity in theevent of high winds. There are alimited amount of inspectors whoare certified to perform this test.Homes with pools may require asubsequent inspection by a licensedpool contractor if there is sufficient

evidence of leaks or surface issues.Not all inspection companies

are qualified to test for defective(Chinese) drywall. If the obvioussymptoms are observable by thehome inspector, they will be notedin the report. For example, if thereis the unmistakable sulfur odor orcorrosion on electrical copper,these would be good indicatorsthat further testing should be con-ducted. It would be well worth theinvestment to have a qualifiedinspector test for defective drywallfor obvious reasons.

If you are investing in a shortsale or bank owned property, itwould be worth your time to bringin a qualified inspector or contractorto inspect the condition of the prop-erty. Short sales and foreclosedproperties are typically purchasedusing an “as is” contract for salewith the right to inspect. If the

inspection report indicates many repairs need tobe made, the buyer would generally be responsi-ble for those repairs, or could cancel the contract.

Once the inspection is completed, the resultsare put into a report format that would includea summary of the findings. Any deficiencieswould be described in more detail somewherein the body of the report. Purchasing a home foroccupancy or investment is a major undertakingand should not be taken lightly. It is one of themost expensive purchases you will ever make.With that said, it is worth the price of theinspection. You can call home inspection com-panies to compare prices, but on average for a1,700 square foot house you are looking atabout $300.00. If wind mitigation or defectivedrywall inspections are required, the price cango up from there.

Q: My husbandand I are from a north-ern state and we areunfamiliar with theconcept of an ease-ment. We know thatan easement runsalong the side of ourproperty but since wetook down an oldfence, people havebeen cutting rightthrough our backyardto get to the beach.One lady told me theyhad a “right of way.” Iknow the easementgives them permissionto use the path nextour property but Ican’t believe theywalk through ourpatio. Isn’t this anencroachment?

A: The terms easement,encroachment and right of way arenot unique to southern states orFlorida in particular. From thebeginning of real property laws, theright to pass through others’ prop-erties to reach common land hasbeen assured. These principles hadtheir origin in traditional commonlaw which governed, for example,the free flow of water or allowedpeople to travel over another’sproperty thereby creating an infor-mal road system. Although owner-ship rights of property are lessenedby an easement, society at largebenefits due to the additional free-dom of movement.

An easement is technically theright of someone other than theowners to use their land for a des-ignated purpose. In your case thepurpose is to reach the beach. Itsounds like you knew there was aneasement when you bought yourproperty but walking through yourbackyard as a shortcut was not partof the deal.

People appear tohave created their own“right of way” afteryou removed the fence.The public cannot takethis upon themselves.A right of way is aform of easementgranted by you, theproperty owner, givingothers the right to trav-el over your land and tohave the reasonable useand enjoyment of yourproperty. They are per-mitted to do this aslong as it is not incon-sistent with your useand enjoyment of theland. In this case, youdid not give permissionand people areencroaching.

An encroachment is an unautho-rized entry upon land of another;whether or not an obstruction isplaced upon the land. Traditionalcommon law created the action oftrespass for injury to your propertywhen another interfered with yourproperty rights by an unauthorizedand direct breach of the boundariesof your land.

The easiest solution might be toinstall a new fence or plant somethick shrubbery to black the way toyour patio. If this doesn’t work,especially with the lady whobelieves she has a “right of way,”seek the advice of an attorney.

Q: You’re my favorite plumber.I’m not a rich person, but I’ve recent-ly started the process of remodelingmy entire kitchen, which can costquite a bit of money. Since I’ve beensaving for years to do this the correctway, I’ve allowed myself the luxuryof hiring a professional designer tohelp me. I want my new kitchen to beultramodern, and the designer insistson using a cast-iron sink. A cast-ironsink?! My grandmother had a cast-iron sink. I didn’t want to insult her,so please let me know your thoughtson cast iron before I approach her.Thanks!

— Betty, PennsylvaniaA: First of all, I’m so happy that all

your years of saving are going tofinally get you your dream kitchen!The good thing about investing in akitchen is that your new one will holdits value for a very long time and willbe a great selling point when and ifthe time comes.

This can become a very expensiveinvestment, so plan your budget andstick to it no matter how tempting.Fair warning: You might hear yourcontractor say things like, “Well,you’ve come this far, so you might as

well go for it.” Tell your contractor tostick to your budget, but feel free toadd any extras you like. Sometimesthe contractor actually may reduce hisor her price. But I digress.

I like the way your designer thinks,and she seems right on the money.Cast iron has made a big comeback inrecent years, believe it or not — inlarge part due to the green movement.Most cast-iron sinks are made withabout 93 percent reclaimed or recy-cled materials. With that in mind,quality plumbing-fixture manufactur-ers have redesigned and improved thequality and finish of new cast-ironsinks and tubs. The results are a fullline of beautiful colors and finishes ina very strong and durable packagethat may get you points for thinkinggreen. Don’t cast off cast iron for yournew kitchen sink.

Q: I recently read your article onhow plumbing vent lines comingthrough the roof of a home can freezeup. I recently went through a night-mare with a similar problem, and Iwant to share it with your readers. Notonly did my vent line freeze up and

cause drainage problems, but whenthe pipe finally thawed out, it floodedmy ceilings. It seems that my vent linepipe was pitched in the wrong direc-tion, and over the years rainwater gotinto the vent lines, filled the pipe withwater and then completely froze upand split the line. Luckily, I found agood plumber who figured out theproblem and installed a new vent linein my attic with proper pitch. Justwanted to warn everyone.

— Kevin, WisconsinA: I have received a few letters

like this, so you’re not alone. Thanksfor the advice, and I hope writing thisletter helped you to “vent” your angerin regard to the mystery person whomessed up the job in the first place.

Every morning, we sleepily dragourselves into the bathroom to freshenup and get the day going. If the flooris carpeted, we feel comfy. If it is ahard floor, such as tile or stone, thatfirst step into the room can be coldand unwelcoming.

How would you like to step ontothat stone floor and have it be warm?It can be done. The process of achiev-ing this nice, warm comfort is actual-ly not complicated at all. A companycalled Warmly Yours (www.warm-lyyours.com) features an electricfloor-warming system. It installs easi-ly under your tile floor and evencomes with its own Energy Star pro-grammable thermostat to control thetemperature. The price? For 35square feet, the cost for the system is$399.

Have you dreamed of having yourvery own steam bath? Your dream

could become a reality. Heat andsteam help muscles relax, which inturn makes for better sleep. The heatis also said to temporarily relievearthritis and sore joints. And anotherbenefit is that a steam bath opens yourskin’s pores to help rid the body oftoxins. Google “steam shower sys-tems” for more information.

Speaking of steam, fogged bath-room mirrors can certainly be frustrat-ing. Well, not to worry. I have a solu-tion for that — an electric bathroom-mirror de-fogger. The system turns onautomatically when the bathroomlight is switched on. A warmingaction prevents shower or bath steamfrom forming on the mirror and leavesyou with a permanent fogless mirror.The price? $60 to $95. Check it out atwww.warmlyyours.com.

How about a nice, warm towel to

wrap yourself in when coming out ofthe shower or bath? A towel warmerwill do the trick. Towel warmers areself-contained and operate independ-ently of the central heating system. Itusually takes about 30 minutes towarm the towels so you do have toturn it on early enough to make surethe towel is nice and toasty. Theycome in a wide range of prices, from$100 all the way up to $5,000.

Most of these bathroom optionsare best installed during constructionor remodeling, as it would be lessexpensive. But nothing is impossible.Where there is a will, there is a way.

A f t e rmonths ofbleak, blahwinter, I’vebeen look-ing at myg a r d e na l m o s tdaily, hop-ing to seesome signsof spring. Iknow it willbe a fewmore weeksuntil springreturns tot h eMidwest, sowhile I waitimpatiently for Mother Nature towake up, I’m going to jump-start theseason by welcoming spring into myinterior decor. Here’s how.

GO GREEN: Take a trip to yourlocal greenhouse and pick some liveplants to perk up your decor. In honorof my Irish heritage, I’m going to getpotted shamrocks for St. Patrick’sDay, either placing them in simplewhite cachepots marching down thecenter of my dining-room table orclustering them in a rustic woodendough bowl at my table’s center.

I’m also going to tuck pots offlowering spring bulbs into my exist-ing displays. In your home, showcaseforced bulbs on your mantel, coffeetable and kitchen island. Or pick upbouquets of daffodils, narcissus ortulips at the florist and use them tobrighten the bedside table in yourroom. Or place a fern on a cake plateto brighten up your coffee table.

FAKE IT A LITTLE: I oncethought it was the height of tackinessto use fake flowers in your decor. Butthat was before faux foliage got soincredibly lifelike. Now, I can’t imag-ine not using fake greens and flowersin my seasonal decorating. For a sim-ple yet dramatic look in your entry,porch or dining-room hutch, fill a tallurn, ginger jar or olive vessel with anarrangement of real fallen twigs andartificial spring branches like dog-woods, forsythia, cherry blossoms orlemon leaves.

CHECK OUT THIS SEASON’SHOTTEST ACCENTS: Every yearwhen I go to the top home-interiorsmarkets around the country, I findfresh, new seasonal accents that makemy heart skip a beat. This year, I’mabsolutely crazy about simple white

pottery. These versatile, inexpensivepieces come in just about every shapeand size imaginable, are incrediblyaffordable and can be used over andagain in your year-round decorating.Top a white vase with a green mossball. Fill a white urn with artificiallemon-tree branches. Dress up a whitecompote with tart green apples.

GO TO THE BIRDS: In anticipa-tion of the return of the robins, I liketo weave bird icons into my decorevery spring. Try this idea: Invitefriends over for a spring luncheon,then create an adorable dining-tabledisplay that celebrates birds. For acenterpiece, fill a cluster of different-sized garden pots with early springbulbs or wheat grass. Then nestle afew little eggs in the leaves. Then, topeach place setting with a sorbet cup ormini candy dish filled with lifelikecandy bird’s eggs. Or write eachguest’s name on a decorated Easteregg and rest it in an eggcup to serve asa place card.

CREATE AN INDOOR GAR-

DEN: At market this year, I also fellin love with faux bois garden furni-ture. I’m adding it to my list of must-haves for the patio, along with comfywicker chairs dressed up with inter-esting cushions and pillows, ceramicgarden stools and, of course, gardenstatues.

TRY SOME VIVID ACCENTS:Maybe it’s because we’ve had such agloomy winter this year, but rightnow I’m drawn to bright, bold, ener-getic accents. For the first time inyears, designers are working with awide variety of hues, not just focusingon a few colors. That means we get tochoose from a rainbow of accents.Pick your favorite spring tone and addit to your decor.

THE BREEZEAtHome

A rose may be” a rose is a rose is a rose”, but astrawberry is a strawberry is a rose. I was recentlyreminded of this in researching strawberries. So arecherries, apples, apricots, pears, plums, peaches,almonds, raspberries, blackberries, and cut roses.The Rosaceae family is the third most economicallyimportant crop plant family after the grass and thepea family.

The strawberry, of the Fragaria genus, is an herba-ceous perennial, theonly fruit with it’sseeds (average of 200)on the outside of thefruit. A very importantsmall fruit crop inFlorida. We rank sec-ond in production toCalifornia nationwide. While California has 80 per-cent of the production, Hillsborough County does 20percent. Right now, Plant City, Florida is celebratingit’s 75th year of the Strawberry Festival, March 4ththrough the 14th.

Strawberries date back over 2000 years. Thesmall, wild forest strawberry of Europe became avail-able to the Greek and Romans in the Middle Ages.When the Europeans arrived in America in 1588,they found wild strawberries cultivated by theAmerican Indians in Virginia. In 1780, the firsthybrid was developed in the United States. The real-ly big fruit as we know it, was developed byNurseryman, Michael Keens, who presented it to theHorticulture Society in 1826. Over 600 varietiesknown today come from the five or six original wildspecies. It is felt that the name, “strawberries,”comes from the early planters spreading straw aroundtheir berry patches to protect their berries, or, becausewhen selling their berries, they strung them on reedsof straw to take them to the market. Today, strawber-ries are always served, a long standing tradition, atthe Wimbledon Tennis Tournament. Tennis anyone?

If you have room for a patch of strawberries, oruse them as a ground cover, remember- use NO pes-ticides around them. You want to safely digest them.Never plant them where tomatoes, peppers, eggplant,or potatoes were grown in previous years. That caus-es Verticillium Rot. And like them, rotate your plant-ing plot because of the nematode situation. In theNorth, March and April are the dates to start a garden,but fall is the best time in Florida. They ripen throughJune. Summer is a difficult time due to rains andheat…a little cold doesn’t hurt the plants, just thefruit. ECHO and the University recommend youplow them under and start over, but they are perenni-als. They need at least 6 hours of sunlight, welldrained, composted loam soil with a PH of 5.8 to 6.5.The University of Florida recommends you plantdouble rows in an eight inch high mound raised bed.This creates your well drained environment in heavyrain times, with lots of room for the roots and runnersto spread. They do need to be well watered when thefruit is forming, at least 2 inches a week. Be sure theplant crown is level with the soil, never buried. Keepthem weed free. Fertilize with a 10-5-10 with micronutrients fertilizer, one pound per 100 square feet atthe start and after the second harvest. Over fertilizingresults in all foliage and no berries. Pine straw mulchis your best covering for weed control.

There are three classes of plants, Day Neutral,Everbearing, and June Bearing. June bearing as itimplies, produce one large crop a year for 2 or 3weeks and they are large berries with lots of runners.Everbearing produces fruits intermittently in spring,summer, and fall and have few runners. Day Neutralproduce throughout the growing season with few run-ners. Everbearing and Day-neutral don’t send outmany runners, but concentrate on producing multipleharvests. The University and ECHO both recommend“Sweet Charlie” and “Festival” varieties for SouthFlorida. Both are short-day varieties. Echo recom-mends the short-day or Day-neutral varieties. Shortday plants are the ones that produce when days areshort and nights are long. The Day-neutral set up andproduce regardless of day length.

Each plant should provide one to two quarts offruit per season. Pick fruit when ripe, as they do notripen when once picked. Do not wash them untilready to eat, and they do freeze nicely. Wash, then laythem separately on a sheet pan in the freezer; thenyou can bag them and they can be chosen individual-ly. Strawberries are high in Vitamin C—eight straw-berries contain more vitamin C than a medium sizedorange, and are high in folic acid.

My son in Bradenton has the best set-up, verticalhydroponics, done with perlite and vermiculite, hav-ing a pumping watering/feeding system. Locally,Denise Muir’s Rabbit Run Farm on Neal Road ishydroponically farmed. She sometimes sells herstrawberries, vegetables, and herbs, at the Farmer’sMarket in the Alliance of Arts field. No space? Youcan do simple hanging baskets, barrels, compostmounds, and tucked here and there in garden bedsthat have no pesticide control.

Did you know—the strawberry is the symbol forVenus, the goddess of love, because it’s heart shapedand red? Wepion, Belgium is the strawberry capitalof the world, but Plant City, Fla., is the winter straw-berry capital of the world? There is a strawberryresearch Center in Dover, Fla.? There is a bird calledthe Strawberry Finch? Arizona and California havecities name Strawberry? Oregon has a StrawberryMountain?

Yes, indeed, a strawberry is a strawberry is a rose.
