A crowd topping 500people jammed the Cit-rus County Auditoriumfor the forum to hearfrom candidates whosenames are on the Aug. 14primary ballot.

Much of the crowdstayed for the final threeraces — county commis-sion Districts 1, 3 and 5,which will be decided inthe universal primary.

creation, support localbusinesses and preservethe quality of life.

“My campaign hasclearly articulated theachievements of theBoard of County Commis-sioners during my term inoffice,” he said.

C h r i s t o p h e r -McPheeters, who lost aRepublican primary toDamato four years ago,blamed Damato for thecounty’s budget shortfall.

“Right now the countyis debt because of thespending habits of the in-cumbent,” she said.

Kitchen, a CrystalRiver councilman and itsformer mayor, said he hasspent two years on thecampaign trail listeningto voter concerns aboutfinancial decisions.

Heathcock, Meek spar over local economyMIKE WRIGHT

Staff Writer

INVERNESS — Tues-day’s District 3 countycommission debate cen-tered on budgets and jobcreation, with incumbentJoe Meek saying muchhas already been doneand challenger ShannonHeathcock offering theopposite view.

Heathcock, owner ofDASH Transport, saidthe county has no long-range plan to handle itsbudget which, he said, isbalanced year to year onwhatever is available.

“There’s no vision forthe future in our budget,”he said. “We have to bor-row $3.3 million out of

our legal fund just to bal-ance the budget this year.What are we going to takeit out of next year?”

Meek, elected to officefour years ago when hedefeated a 16-year in-cumbent, countered thatthe county budgetdropped $44 million infour years and taxes havedecreased 37 percent.

Meek also said thecounty has come a longway in developing and di-versifying its economy.

“When I came into of-fice in 2008, CitrusCounty was not a friendlyplace to do businesswith,” he said. “Folks,those days are over.”

Meek said the countylowered impact fees, cre-

ated tax incentives forjob growth and rejuve-nated the Economic De-velopment Council, ofwhich Meek is chairman.

A panel of ChronicleEditorial Board membersasked candidateswhether they supportProgress EnergyFlorida’s plans to repairthe nuclear plant north ofCrystal River to get itback online, and its plansfor two additional nu-clear plants in LevyCounty.

Heathcock said he sup-ports the repairs and thenew plants. However, hesaid the county has nofallback should Progress— now a subsidiary ofDuke Energy — decide to

shut down the nuclearplant permanently.

“Your taxes are goingto go through the roof,”he said. “There is noplan. We have to get one.”

Meek, however, saidthe county is part of theTampa Bay Partnership,whose chairman is Vin-cent Dolan, chief execu-tive officer of ProgressEnergy Florida. Meekalso said he has person-ally spoken with JamesRogers, CEO of Duke Energy.

“I’ve relayed to them,and to Duke Energy, howimportant they are withregards to our economy,”Meek said.

District 5 commission race hopefuls seek spotlightMIKE WRIGHT

Staff Writer

INVERNESS — Withno incumbent in the Dis-trict 5 county commissionrace, four candidateshoped to distinguishthemselves as the rightchoice for attendees ofTuesday night’s Chroni-cle forum.

Each candidate in thefield — businessmanScott Adams, formercounty public safety di-rector Charles Poliseno,Citrus County Councilpast president Theodora“Teddi” Rusnak and Cit-rus County HospitalBoard chairman MichaelSmallridge — said he or

she has the knowledgeand expertise to serve ascommissioner.

“The board needs to becreative,” Adams said.“We’re in a time and placein history that things arenot going to get much bet-ter. We need to be realisticwith ourselves. We needto be survivors.”

Poliseno, a Citrus HighSchool graduate, cited anumber of accomplish-ments as public safety di-rector. He helped createthe public-private part-nership that now is Na-ture Coast EMS and alsonegotiated with Correc-tions Corporation ofAmerica to expand thejail’s size without

public expense.“A public servant is

what I’ve been for CitrusCounty,” he said.

Rusnak, who servedfour years as chair-woman of the CitrusCounty Council, said shesupports growth thatdoesn’t damage thecounty’s ecosystem.

“We need to managegrowth through responsi-ble, smart planning,” shesaid.

Smallridge, who ownsstate-regulated smallwater and wastewaterutilities, said the countyis looking for a “silverbullet” answer to its eco-nomic problem. He saidthe county should pro-

vide a trained workforcefor a diversified economy.

“Until we solve thatproblem, I think the sil-ver bullet is never goingto come,” he said.

Candidates, asked howthey would cut the budgetwithout cutting services,provided a variety of answers.

Adams said he wouldlook at reducing take-home vehicles and buy-ing fuel in bulk with thesheriff ’s office.

Poliseno said he wouldtake a business approach.

“No line item in thebudget is sacred,” hesaid.

The Southwest FloridaWater Management Dis-trict’s Governing Boardvoted to let Modified PhaseIII water shortage restric-tions expire Tuesday forCitrus, Hernando, Lake,Levy and Sumter countiesas well as the city of Dun-nellon and The Villages inMarion County due to im-provements in the region’swater resources.

Citrus County will returnto the District’s year-roundwater conservation meas-ures, according to LindsayUbinas, spokeswoman forCitrus County.

The lawn and landscapewatering schedule is lim-ited to a two-day-per-weekschedule, and most water-ing may only occur before10 a.m. or after 4 p.m. Resi-dents are encouraged towater only if their lawn andlandscape needs it and turnoff their irrigation system ifit has rained or rain is pre-dicted in the next 24 hours,Ubinas said.

The governing boardvoted to lift the restrictionsin response to significantimprovements in aquiferand river levels as a resultof Tropical Storm Debbyand regular summer rains.However, the board urgedresidents to continue thewater conservation prac-tices they’ve learned duringthe recent drought.

Scott’s emails not part of public release

Associated Press

TALLAHASSEE — Gov.Rick Scott’s staff is havingtrouble again with hisemails — or at least know-ing where they are.

Less than three monthsafter announcing a programto post online the governor’semails and those of his staff,it turns out only staff emailswere available. Scott’semails were in a separateaccount. The Miami Heraldfirst reported the issue.

Scott announced a pro-gram he called “ProjectSunburst” in early May thatwould allow access to hisemails within 24 hours of thetime they were written. Theidea was to give citizens anopen and transparent win-dow into the workings ofstate government. WhenScott announced ProjectSunburst, he noted thatsome emails might not beput on the website immedi-ately although most wouldbe available within a week.Scott also said some wouldhave to be reviewed to en-sure the information was notexempt to public disclosure.

“Providing access to onlysome of the governor’semails — the positive emails

sent to an email address notgenerally available to thepublic at large — is nottransparency, it is, at thevery least, misinformation,and underscores the needfor strong public accesslaws,” First AmendmentFoundation President Bar-bara Petersen said Tuesday.

“We need to see Floridaofficials serious about trans-parency with their emails,”said Dan Krassner, execu-tive director of the ethics re-search and advocacy groupIntegrity Florida. “We’re ei-ther going to see trans-parency fully embraced byProject Sunburst or contin-uation of what has essen-tially been a propagandamachine.”

The governor remains onvacation “out west” and hisoffice did not immediatelyrespond Tuesday for com-ment on the latest emailcontroversy.

Krassner suggested thatScott adopt a real-time,searchable system similar toone in Alachua County whereall emails are automaticallyincluded and immediatelyavailable to the public.

“If a county governmentcan do it, the state govern-ment can do it,” Krassner

said Tuesday.It isn’t the first time the

first-term Republican gov-ernor has been tangled upin an email controversy.

Scott’s decision in May tomake the emails public fol-lowed numerous complaintsduring his first year in officefrom media organizationsthat his administration wasnot fulfilling public recordsrequests in a timely fashion.It was also about ninemonths after Scott orderedan investigation into howemails he had written be-tween his election and tak-ing office were deleted.

The embarrassing dele-tion of the emails promptedthe Republican-controlledLegislature to pass a law re-quiring the governor andother statewide elected offi-cials to preserve and makepublic any documents andemails they send betweentheir election and the timethey are officially sworninto office. Scott supportedthe measure and signed itinto law.

The Florida Departmentof Law Enforcement said inJune after a nine-month in-vestigation there was noevidence they were inten-tionally deleted.

sister and stepfather by hisside, alleged his publicrecords requests for theCitrus County Sheriff ’s Office to produce docu-ments in reference toSeeger’s work as a confi-dential informant havegone unanswered.

If the sheriff ’s officedoesn’t respond by 5 p.m.Friday, Grant said he wouldfile a lawsuit to compel therelease of certain docu-ments that would show shewas an informant, such asreceipts Grant claimed willshow payments to Seegerfrom the sheriff ’s office forher work.

Grant said there is nodoubt Seeger was a confi-dential informant for thesheriff ’s office. He statedhe has witnesses who sawcash exchanges betweenSeeger and sheriff ’s officepersonnel. He also saidthere were numerous con-versations between Seegerand detectives.

But Grant said it wastime for Seeger’s family toknow the full extent of herinvolvement with the sher-iff ’s office.

He raised concernsabout possible attempts bythe sheriff ’s office to coverup information. He said thesheriff ’s office repeatedlysaying “no comment” is nolonger acceptable.

“We’re not waiting any-more,” he said.

Grant also said “Rachel’sLaw” could have implica-tions in Seeger’s case. Thebill is named after RachelHoffman, a Tallahassee po-lice informant who wasmurdered in 2008 duringan undercover drug buy.

The legislation lays outseveral provision for lawenforcement agencies onhow to use confidential in-formants, including requir-ing law enforcementagencies to provide train-ing to officers who recruitconfidential informants,adopt policies and proce-dures to ensure the safetyof informants and allow in-formants to consult with anattorney if they ask.

Grant also made allega-tions Sheriff Jeff Dawsyhad a hand in the termina-tion of Bill Grotjahn, an in-vestigator with the medicalexaminer in Leesburg, be-cause he leaked informa-tion about Seeger’s caseafter the homicide occurred.

Grant said he obtainedthe information through athird party and would notsay to whom the informa-tion was leaked. Grant alsostated a large portion ofSeeger’s income came fromher confidential informantwork, but he would not saywhat originally lead to herrelationship with the sher-iff ’s office.

Grant insisted he doesn’twant to compromise thehomicide investigation, butsaid the family deserves answers.

He also alleged Dawsydidn’t offer condolences tothe family when he arrivedon scene the morning of theshooting.

Wendy Moore, Seeger’smother, said she just wantspeople to know her daugh-ter was a good person whowas “larger than life” andwas working to make hercommunity better. Sinceher death, she said she justfeels empty.

She explained how hardit has been to care forSeeger’s 10-month-old boyand explain to Seeger’s 4-year-old daughter now thatmom isn’t coming home.

“What do you say to a 4-year-old?” she said. “Whatdo you say to a 10-month-old?”

Terri Oulch broke intotears as she explained howSeeger’s daughter told hershe didn’t want her mom asan angel anymore; shewanted her for real.

During a telephone in-terview, Dawsy, who wasout of town attending aFlorida Sheriffs’ Associa-tion conference, said the

occasion would be the firstand only time he speaksabout the Seeger case.

Though Dawsy said hewould not discuss any de-tails about the homicide in-vestigation, he calledGrant’s actions “reprehen-sible” and his allegations“far from the truth.”

“He’s making a circus outof a terrible, terrible case,”he said.

Dawsy said his top prior-ity is finding Seeger’s killer,not releasing informationto Grant.

“Grant doesn’t tell mewhat to release,” he said.

When asked aboutGrant’s statement of intentto file a lawsuit if his publicrecords requests continueto be ignored, Dawsy saidGrant can contact his attor-ney because he is not re-leasing any documents.

In response to having ahand in the termination ofGrotjahn, Dawsy said hefound out Grotjahn hadleaked information aboutSeeger’s case after thehomicide occurred, whichhe said compromised Grot-jahn’s credibility with him,so he “removed access” tohim.

Dawsy also vehementlydenied Seeger’s case hav-ing anything to do with“Rachel’s Law” and said hespoke to Moore the morn-ing of the shooting, but thatit is possible she doesn’t remember.

Dawsy said as soon as heis able to close the homi-cide investigation, which isprogressing, and make anarrest, he will be more thanwilling to release all the in-formation he has.

“Rest assured, we havenothing to hide,” he said.

He said Grant is “embell-ishing and exaggerating.”

“Grant is not represent-ing the good cause of thiscase,” Dawsy said.

INVERNESS — It’s thesuccess stories that fuelSamantha Shepard’s pas-sion for Drug Court. She hasseen people turn their livesaround for the better.

“My heart is just burstingat graduations,” she said.“It’s satisfying to see thetransformation.”

Drug Court is an 18-monthCourt Alternatives programthat provides treatment,counseling and supervisionto people in the court sys-tem dealing with substanceabuse.

Shepard became the newDrug Court coordinator inDecember, but had been theprogram assistant for a cou-ple of years before assumingthe new position.

Drug Court is a program

for people who have beencharged with a felony drugoffense or have violatedprobation with a positivedrug screen.

Many of the program’s re-ferrals come from attorneyswho handle felony cases orJudge Ric Howard, who pre-sides over felony cases inCitrus County, Shepard said.

Drug Court also receivescases from dependencycourt. Applicants usuallyhave an open case plan withthe Florida Department ofChildren and Families, re-quiring the completion ofDrug Court.

For a person to qualify forDrug Court, Shepard saidthe applicant can’t have ahistory of violent or sexualoffenses. The person alsocannot face charges con-nected to drug sales or trafficking.

Though the program re-quires a minimum 18-monthcommitment and costsmoney ($85 for orientationfollowed by $50 a week fordrug abuse treatment andintense supervision), Shep-ard said a successful com-pletion of the program leadsto charges being dismissed.

However, Shepard has re-alized selling defendants onDrug Court has been a chal-lenge. Aside from the finan-cial obligations, Shepardsaid many people think theprogram is impossible.

“There’s a lot of negativetalk in the jail about the pro-gram,” she said.

But Shepard has vowed tostart shining some positivelight on the program.

She hopes to record videosof past clients sharing theirsuccess stories. In addition,Shepard said she wants to

drive home the message withdefendants that refusingDrug Court and doing jailtime instead may seem likethe easier path, but in theend, having a felony on theirrecords can be a hindrance,especially when it comes tofinding a job.

Through Drug Court,Shepard said clients learncertain life skills to get ontheir feet, such as inter-viewing skills for jobs. Theyalso receive help with jobsearches, housing and areoffered a number of otherservices to measure theirachievements in the pro-gram and gauge its effectiveness.

Moreover, in the program,the staff gets to know eachclient’s background. For in-stance, they learn whatdrives a client’s addictionand what his or her “drug of

choice” is, which has prima-rily been prescription pillsor methamphetamine.

While Shepard findsabout 10 percent of theclients started using drugsand alcohol because theywanted to try it, she saidmany of the participantshave suffered some trau-matic event in their life thatled to their addiction, whichis why group meetings andAA/NA meetings are such anintegral part of the program.

Coupled with the courtsessions and random drugscreenings, Shepard whole-heartedly believes the pro-gram helps people achievea drug-free lifestyle.

“We help them makesteps into becoming an adultin the real society,” she said.“It’s very rewarding.”

The Southwest FloridaWater Management DistrictGoverning Board on Tues-day adopted its proposedfiscal year 2012-13 millagerate.

The Board adopted a pro-posed rate of 0.3928 mill,which is the same as thecurrent fiscal year. The newfiscal year will run fromOct. 1 through Sept. 30,2013. With taxable propertyvalues declining by 2.9 per-cent, this rate will result ina $3 million reduction in advalorem property tax revenue.

The total proposedbudget for the district is$159.7 million, 2.6 percenthigher than the adoptedbudget for the current fiscalyear, which is $155.5 mil-

lion. The $4.2 million in-crease in the budget is pri-marily due to additionalfunding requests from localgovernments for water re-sources projects. The in-crease is funded byadditional balances avail-able from prior years due tothe cancellation of projectsand projects completedunder budget.

The proposed budget in-cludes $83.4 million for cap-ital/infrastructure andother district projects. Thedistrict’s funds leveragedwith its partners will resultin a total investment ofmore than $134 million forwater resource manage-ment projects benefittingthe region.

Over the long term, thedistrict has identified ade-quate fiscal resources to ad-

dress the core missionareas of responsibility forwater supply, water quality,flood protection and flood-plain management and nat-ural systems. The district’sfiscal resources supple-mented with project re-serves will maintain aninvestment in the economyand water resources duringthe next 5 to 10 years.

For the owner of a$150,000 home with a$50,000 homestead exemp-tion, the new proposed dis-trict tax would be $39.28 ayear, or about $3.27 permonth. The proposed mill-age rate adopted by the gov-erning board will be usedby county property apprais-ers when mailing out Truthin Millage (TRIM) notices ofproposed property taxes toresidents.

Two statutorily requiredpublic TRIM hearings onthe district’s total budgetwill be held in September.The first will be Sept. 11 at 6p.m. at the District’s TampaService Office.

The governor’s office willreview and approve thebudgets of all five watermanagement districts be-fore the second and finalpublic hearing.

The district’s second andfinal TRIM hearing will beSept. 25 at 6 p.m. at the dis-trict’s Tampa Service office.At the conclusion of thehearing, the governingboard will formally adoptthe final millage rate andbudget.

The allegation stunnedthose who have knownCrotzer since he was re-leased from prison in 2006.

“I don’t know how to de-scribe the reaction as any-thing but truly shocking,and based upon my experi-ence over the course of thepast several years, it is com-pletely out of character,”said Mark Schlakman,chairman of the board of di-

rectors of the InnocenceProject of Florida. “In manyrespects by my personal ex-perience with him, he’s anextraordinary individual.”

Crotzer was arrested Mon-day and was held in a LeonCounty jail without bond.

His attorney, Thomas Pow-ell, says he has not yet hadtime to discuss the chargeswith Crotzer, but he plannedto file a plea of not guilty.

Tallahassee police said theshooting victim, AntoineDavis, told them Crotzer

threatened him a couple ofmonths ago after they had anargument over a CD he soldDavis’ girlfriend. On Sundaynight while leaving a BestBuy store, Davis said he sawthe car that belonged toCrotzer’s girlfriend. Whiledriving away, hesaid he saw asecond car owned by Crotzerentering the parking lot.

Davis said he tried tomake a U-turn right afterleaving the store, but thecar followed him. He al-leged Crotzer fired at himwhile both cars were goingabout 40 miles per hour.

Scott’s emails not part of public release

Associated Press

TALLAHASSEE — Gov.Rick Scott’s staff is havingtrouble again with hisemails — or at least know-ing where they are.

Less than three monthsafter announcing a programto post online the governor’semails and those of his staff,it turns out only staff emailswere available. Scott’semails were in a separateaccount. The Miami Heraldfirst reported the issue.

Scott announced a pro-gram he called “ProjectSunburst” in early May thatwould allow access to hisemails within 24 hours of thetime they were written. Theidea was to give citizens anopen and transparent win-dow into the workings ofstate government. WhenScott announced ProjectSunburst, he noted thatsome emails might not beput on the website immedi-ately although most wouldbe available within a week.Scott also said some wouldhave to be reviewed to en-sure the information was notexempt to public disclosure.

“Providing access to onlysome of the governor’semails - the positive emails

sent to an email address notgenerally available to thepublic at large — is nottransparency, it is, at thevery least, misinformation,and underscores the needfor strong public accesslaws,” First AmendmentFoundation President Bar-bara Petersen said Tuesday.

“We need to see Floridaofficials serious about trans-parency with their emails,”said Dan Krassner, execu-tive director of the ethics re-search and advocacy groupIntegrity Florida. “We’re ei-ther going to see trans-parency fully embraced byProject Sunburst or contin-uation of what has essen-tially been a propagandamachine.”

The governor remains onvacation “out west” and hisoffice did not immediatelyrespond Tuesday for com-ment on the latest emailcontroversy.

Krassner suggested thatScott adopt a real-time,searchable system similar toone in Alachua County whereall emails are automaticallyincluded and immediatelyavailable to the public.

“If a county governmentcan do it, the state govern-ment can do it,” Krassner

said Tuesday.It isn’t the first time the

first-term Republican gov-ernor has been tangled upin an email controversy.

Scott’s decision in May tomake the emails public fol-lowed numerous complaintsduring his first year in officefrom media organizationsthat his administration wasnot fulfilling public recordsrequests in a timely fashion.It was also about ninemonths after Scott orderedan investigation into howemails he had written be-tween his election and tak-ing office were deleted.

The embarrassing dele-tion of the emails promptedthe Republican-controlledLegislature to pass a law re-quiring the governor andother statewide elected offi-cials to preserve and makepublic any documents andemails they send betweentheir election and the timethey are officially sworninto office. Scott supportedthe measure and signed itinto law.

The Florida Departmentof Law Enforcement said inJune after a nine-month in-vestigation there was noevidence they were inten-tionally deleted.

Kitchen said the countyhas to get its budget undercontrol. He said the countycommission is surviving onreserves.

Candidates also wereasked to name one item inthe budget that citizenscould do without.

Kitchen said he wouldeliminate travel expensesfor commissioners. He saidcommissioners in the past18 months spent $27,000 ontravel for themselves.

“If you elect me, anytravel will come out of mypay,” he said.

Damato said the public is

satisfied with the board’sbudget decisions, whichspared popular servicessuch as 4-H and the libraries.

“We used all the tools inour toolbox to make thathappen in these very, verytough times,” he said.

Christopher-McPheeters

said the county should domore in-house studies.

“I would not want to keephiring as many consult-ants,” she said.

She also suggested paycuts at the top of the salaryscale so that employees atthe lower end, such as jani-tors, could receive payraises.

While Kitchen andChristopher-McPheeterspromised change, Damatosaid voters should not beswayed by their argu-ments.

“All you have heard frommy opponents,” Damatosaid, “is distortion, diver-sion and distraction fromthe facts and realities oflocal government.”

est and best use. Right nowthat property is taxed as anuclear power plant. Thequestion is: What happensif they move out the door? Idon’t think that’s realisticbecause they store nuclearwaste out there. It may notbe highest and best use, butit’ll always be part of ourtax base.”

Popular Irish authorMaeve Binchy diesAssociated Press

LONDON — BestsellingIrish author Maeve Binchy,one of Ireland’s most popu-lar writers who sold morethan 40 million booksworldwide, died in Dublinafter a brief illness, Irishmedia and national leaderssaid. She was 72 years old.

She was best known forher depictions of humanrelationships and theircrises in such books as“Circle of Friends” and“Tara Road,” based mainlyin the small towns of Ire-land but also in London.

“We have lost a nationaltreasure,” said Irish PrimeMinister Enda Kenny.

The Irish Times, her for-mer employer, told The As-sociated Press it hadspoken to Binchy’s familyand said the acclaimed au-thor had died in a Dublinhospital on Monday withher husband, Gordon Snell,by her side.

“She was an outstandingnovelist, short story writerand columnist, who en-gaged millions of people allaround the world with herfluent and accessiblestyle,” said Ireland’s presi-dent, Michael D. Higgins.

“In recent years sheshowed great courage andthankfully never lost herself-deprecating humor,honesty and remarkable in-tegrity as an artist andhuman being,” Higginssaid.

Binchy wrote 16 novels,four collections of short sto-ries, a play and a novella.Her work landed her onThe New York Times’ best-seller list and in Oprah’sBook Club.

In recent years she con-tinued to write despitebeing slowed down byarthritis and a heart ail-ment.

“I do realize that I am apopular writer who peoplebuy to take on vacation. I’man escapist kind of writer,”Binchy said in an interviewwith the BookReporterwebsite.

“I was just lucky I lived inthis time of mass-marketpaperbacks,” she added.

Describing her child-hood in Dalkey in CountyDublin, Binchy wrote onher official website that shewas “full of enthusiasms,mad fantasies, desperateurges to be famous andanxious to be a saint. “

After graduating fromUniversity College Dublin,Binchy worked as a teacherbefore becoming a journal-ist, columnist and editor atthe Irish Times, one of thecountry’s leading newspa-pers.

She later moved to Eng-land, where she becamethe newspaper’s Londoneditor in the early 1970s.

Her first novel, “Light aPenny Candle,” was pub-lished in 1982 — after beingrejected by five publishers— and became a bestseller.

That book led to an invi-tation to appear on aFrench TV program, “a ter-rifying serious programabout books,” she recalledtwo years ago in an inter-view with DonaldO’Donoghue of broadcasterRTE.

“Suddenly they askedme, as only the Frenchwould, ‘Madame, what isyour philosophy of life?’What a cosmic question,but I had to answer, and an-swer quickly, because itwas live.

“So I said, in French, ‘Ithink that you’ve got to playthe hand that you’re dealtand stop wishing for an-other hand.’”

“Circle of Friends” and“Tara Road,” and her shortstory “How About You”were turned into films. Twoother novels, “Echoes” and“The Lilac Bus,” werefilmed for television.

“Tara Road,” about Irishand American women whoswitch homes without hav-ing met, was chosen by U.S.TV talk show host OprahWinfrey for her popularbook club, bringing hermany new readers.

She had announced in hercolumn in 2000 that “ScarletFeather” would be her lastnovel, prompting more than800 people to write in protestto The Irish Times.

A new novel, “Quentins,”appeared in 2002.

In the same year, she suf-fered a health crisis relatedto a heart condition, anddoctors warned that itwould restrict her activity.Her time in hospital wait-ing rooms, absorbing the

conversations of patients,inspired another novel,“Heart and Soul,” in 2009.

Binchy’s novel “MindingFrankie” was published in2010, the same year she re-ceived a lifetime achieve-ment honor from the IrishBook Awards. Her latestnovel, “A Week in Winter,”is to be published later thisyear.

In an interview two yearsago, Binchy said she pre-ferred to deal with issueswhich could be arguedfrom either side.

“I often wonder that if Ihad met Hitler, I reckon Imight have found somestreak of decency in him,”she told O’Donoghue.

“I once tried to write anovel about revenge. It’sthe only book I didn’t finish.I couldn’t get into the mindof the person who was plot-ting vengeance,” she said.

The best advice, sheadded, comes from the“Coronation Street,” aBritish soap opera: “Oh, getover yourself.”

Binchy is survived by herhusband, her brother,William, and her sister,Joan.

She is to be cremated Fri-day at a private service fol-lowing a funeral Mass atthe Catholic Church of theAssumption in her nativeDublin district of Dalkey.

TEGUCIGALPA, Hon-duras — In the capital ofone of the world’s most dan-gerous countries, a hooded,masked man jumped out ofa car on an assault mission.

His target: a crumblingwall on a garbage-strewncorner. With his accompliceacting as lookout, the manplastered a giant black-and-white reproduction ofLeonardo da Vinci’s “MonaLisa” — wielding a pink pis-tol. In minutes he was gone.

The city’s self-proclaimedUrban Maeztro had struckagain with another artistic“intervention” designed tomake Hondurans thinkabout the violence that hastraumatized Tegucigalpa.

“The level of how com-mon guns have become inthis country has passedwhat is rationally admissi-ble,” said the 26-year-oldgraphic artist, who left hisday job at an advertisingagency to become themasked crusader. “It doesn’tseem to surprise anyone,but for me it continues to bemadness.”

The artist uses the streetname Urban Maeztro, a styl-ized translation of “UrbanMaster,” to shield his trueidentity because the work isboth dangerous and illegal.

The Honduran lacks thefame of the elusive Britishgraffiti artist known only asBanksy, who has gained no-toriety in Europe in recentyears. Urban Maeztro saidonly his closest friends knowthat he launches the artisticassaults, dressed in a hoodie,his face covered with a ker-chief depicting a skull.

The artist arrests passingviewers by defacing postersof artistic masterpieces,such as the Mona Lisa, withguns, grenades and othericonic tools of violence. Healso employs more tradi-tional graffiti, painting sec-tions of metal light poles tolook like bullets.

“There is a parallel be-tween the brutal violation ofa work so beautiful byadding a firearm and the vi-olence and guns in Teguci-galpa, which could also be abeautiful city withoutthem,” he said.

His canvas is the streets ofthe Central American city of1.2 million, which he de-scribes as “captive, fearfuland closed by a mixture ofviolence, poverty and an ab-sence of public services.”About 1,149 people weremurdered in the Hondurancapital last year, more than87 for every 100,000. That’s10 times the rate consideredan epidemic of violence bythe World Health Organiza-tion — a number that hasdoubled in the last fiveyears.

As a result, Tegucigalpa’sstreets are typically empty,as are public squares andother traditional meetingspots. Most people congre-gate in giant, indoor Ameri-can-style shopping mallsguarded by men with auto-matic rifles.

During a recent graffitiassault, even passing mo-torists swerved at the sightof the hooded artist in aHonduras tourist T-shirtand paint-speckled cargopants drawing on the city’swalls.

A security guard watchedas he plastered Grant

Wood’s “American Gothic”on a wall in front of the Na-tional University, com-pletely absorbed.

“Who pays you to dothat?” the guard asked.

“No one,” the artist an-swered.

“Then why do it?”“To help you think.”It worked, as the guard

stood contemplatingwhether the old farm couplewas holding M-16 rifles in-stead of pitch forks.

During a recent interview,the commando artist smiledeasily and never raised hisvoice as he described hismission with Zen-like tran-quility. He said he startedthe guerrilla attacks in Oc-tober when he got tired ofworking a high-pressureagency job creating art foradvertisements.

“In a country that’s sink-ing, using art to boost con-sumption rather than toprovoke social change be-came unbearable for me,”he said.

Now working fewer hoursat a cultural center, he hasmore time and greater flex-ibility for his project.

Standing over a gas stovein the outdoor garden of afriend’s home in Teguci-galpa’s historic center, theartist stirred a boiling pot ofthe glue he uses to affix his posters. Laundry driedin the sun on a nearbyclothesline.

The artist said the catalystfor his mission as an anony-mous urban artist camewhen he entered a UN-ESCO poster contest on cul-tural diversity. When he lostthe contest, he decided thatthe institutional doors forsupporting his idea wereclosed.

“The natural place for artis the street, forget the mid-

dleman,” he said.Since then he’s created a

dynamic that includes mak-ing his own glue by boilingwheat and water, which hesaid is “the best adhesiveand cheap,” and roamingthe city on Sunday after-noons seeking vacant wallsand inspiration. His accom-plice, the documentarianJunior Alvarez, keeps watchwhile he works, then photo-graphs the final piece.

“At first I had anxietywhen I went into thestreets,” the artist said, “butnow I’m used to the adrena-line.”

Art critic BayardoBlandino, curator of theWomen in the Arts museum,said that Urban Maeztro’sstyle of graffiti is new toHonduras, and that he ispushing the limits on thecountry’s freedom of ex-pression.

“If he continues with per-severance, he will get a loyalfollowing and have an ef-fect,” said Blandino, whodoes not know UrbanMaeztro’s true identity.

During a social gatheringon a recent Saturday night,traditional graffiti artistscriticized his work for mix-ing formats and materialand not sticking to puregraffiti art. Unknown tothem, the man who paints asUrban Maeztro was amongthem.

He doesn’t want his inter-ventions to seem naive. Heknows art won’t diminishthe number of weapons orimprove education in hiscountry.

But it’s possible, he said,to “provoke reflection aboutthese problems, the firststep for citizens to develop acritical awareness. Every-thing in street art is con-text.”

The average price at the pump fell by 60cents per gallon in about three months. But oilrose 13 percent from its June low on renewedconcerns of supply disruptions in the Middle Eastand the usual increase in demand in the warmermonths. Oil ended July at $88.05 per barrel.

US consumer spending flat,income up 0.5 percent

WASHINGTON — Americans spent no morein June than they did in May, even though theirincome grew at the fastest pace in three months.

The lack of growth in spending follows a de-cline in the previous month, suggesting con-sumers are staying cautious with their money asthe economy weakens.

Income rose 0.5 percent, the Commerce De-partment said in its June report on consumerspending and income. That was the biggest gainsince March and was driven by a 0.5 percent in-crease in wages, the largest component of in-come. After taxes and adjusting for inflation,income grew 0.3 percent.

Home prices rose inall major US cities in May

WASHINGTON — Home prices rose in Mayfrom April in every city tracked by a leadingindex, a sign that increasing sales and tight in-ventories are supporting a modest housing re-covery.

The Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller homeprice index released Tuesday showed increasesin all of the 20 cities tracked. And a measure ofnational prices rose 2.2 percent from April toMay, the second increase after seven months offlat or declining readings.

Chicago, Atlanta and San Francisco postedthe biggest monthly increases. Detroit, SanDiego and Charlotte, N.C., posted the smallestgains.

Gov’t bars Fannie-Freddiefrom reducing principal

WASHINGTON — A federal regulator isstanding by its decision to bar Fannie Mae andFreddie Mac from reducing principal for borrow-

ers at risk of foreclosure, resisting pressure fromthe Obama administration.

The Federal Housing Finance Agency an-nounced the decision Tuesday after months ofconsidering the option.

The agency’s acting director, Edward De-Marco, has long opposed allowing Fannie andFreddie to offer principal reduction.

DeMarco said an extensive analysis by theFHFA found the potential benefit was too smallcompared with the costs and risks. The risks in-clude as many as 19,000 borrowers strategicallydefaulting on their loans, according to the analy-sis.

UBS second quarter hit byFacebook IPO loss

GENEVA — Shares in UBS plunged after theSwiss banking giant posted a worse-than-ex-pected 58 percent fall in second-quarter profitsTuesday due to losses from the Facebook stocklisting and a downturn at its investment bankingdivision.

Switzerland’s largest bank said the drop inprofits to 425 million francs ($434.16 million)from 1.02 billion Swiss francs ($1.2 billion) a yearearlier reflects “challenging conditions marked byincreased volatility and greater client caution.”

The Zurich-based bank missed analysts’ esti-mates for more than 1 billion francs in profit, andits shares fell nearly 6 percent on Tuesday.

Pfizer 2Q net income rises 25percent on lower costs

Pfizer Inc. posted a 25 percent jump in sec-ond-quarter net income Tuesday due to aggres-sive cost cutting and lower restructuring andother charges, shaking off the expected plunge inrevenue from generic competition to its choles-terol fighter Lipitor, the world’s top-selling drug.

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGEName Last Chg

Associated Press

NEW YORK — Stocksended slightly lower Tues-day as investors held backahead of three criticalevents this week: policymeetings at both the Fed-eral Reserve and the Euro-pean Central Bank and aclosely watched report onjobs in the U.S.

The Dow Jones industrialaverage lost 64.33 points toclose at 13,008.68. The Stan-dard & Poor’s 500 edgeddown 5.98 points to 1,379.32,and the Nasdaq compositelost 6.32 points to 2,939.52.

The Federal Reserve,which started a two-day pol-icy meeting Tuesday, hadappeared to be moving to-ward announcing some kindof new step to energize theU.S. economy. But therewere big questions overwhether it will do so thisweek.

That’s because someeconomists believe the Fedisn’t convinced that the U.S.economic slowdown is pro-nounced enough yet to re-quire more economicstimulus. A slew of recentdata that has shown weak-ness in the economy hasbeen offset by some pocketsof strength.

Tuesday was no exception.The Commerce Depart-

ment reported that spend-ing by the U.S. consumerwas unchanged in June. Butpersonal income edged up0.5 percent.

“If incomes are rising, butpeople aren’t spending, ittells you that the consumerhas some ammunition for

more spending during thecrucial back-to-school sea-son,” said Quincy Krosby,market strategist with Pru-dential Financial.

There were other positivenumbers. The Standard &Poor’s/Case-Shiller homeprice index released Tues-day showed that prices in-creased in all of the 20 citiesit tracks. The ConferenceBoard said Consumer Confi-dence Index increased to itshighest reading since April,and better than economistshad forecast.

Investors were alsoclosely watching for the out-come from the EuropeanCentral Bank’s meeting onThursday to discuss con-

crete steps to help countrieswith crippling debt.

It will be the first meetingafter ECB President MarioDraghi said last Thursdaythat the central bank woulddo “whatever it takes” topreserve the euro, sendingmarkets sharply higher.Over the following days, theleaders of Germany, Franceand Italy also said theywould do all they can to pro-tect the 17-country currencyunion. The commentsraised expectations that theECB might step in to buySpanish and perhaps Ital-ian government bonds tolower the borrowing costsfor those countries, whichhave shot up to unsustain-ably high levels.

Investors were also wait-ing for the monthly unem-ployment report on Friday,the most-watched gauge ofhow healthy the U.S. econ-omy is.

“There’s a lot to absorbthis week, including twomajor announcements fromtwo very important centralbanks and payroll data,”Krosby said.

Corporate earnings newsdid little to inspire in-vestors. Aetna, the health in-surance company, reporteda 15 percent slump in net in-come as rising medical costsoutweighed a gain in rev-enue. Its stock fell $1.08, oralmost 3 percent, to $36.06.

Archer Daniels Midland,hammered by record cornprices, reported a 25 per-cent drop in net income.The agriculture company’sstock fell $1.40, or 5 percent,to $26.09.

Curb developmentI moved to Citrus County to es-

cape the big cities and live myretirement years in the country(small-town America). When Ifirst arrived, this county had anabundance of underdevelopedland. It was a place were deerand wild turkeys, foxes and allkinds of wildlife were all around.This was just 12 years ago. Partof my property had a body ofwater on it that never dried up.

This, I am sad to say, has alldisappeared. I believe it is dueto overdevelopment. This is areal problem because there hasto be a balance between devel-opment and nature. As I lookaround the county, all I see is de-velopment and no land put asidefor nature. I see our forest disap-pearing at an alarming rate. Thewildlife has disappeared. Ourlakes and streams are drying up,all because of over developing.

What ever happened to small-town America, where peoplecould go out into the forest andlook at nature — or, for that mat-ter, where wildlife roamed onyour property? Whatever hap-pened to safeguarding the habi-tats of the gopher turtles? Lookon your roads and see the road-kill of this species along withpossums and all other kinds ofcritters. For us as a human raceto survive, there has to be a bal-ance between us and nature. Itseems to me that we as a countyhave overburdened our naturalinfrastructure (water, forest,wildlife and nature). It doesn’ttake a genius to know that treesmake shade and shade keepsmoisture and moisture rises up(evaporation), which falls backdown in rain and makes bodiesof water. Have you ever seen aforest grow in a desert?

Without water, life does notexist. Develop responsibility.Keep a balance and we will sur-vive. Stop looking at develop-ment as a tax revenue at the costof our existence. This message isfor the county and state politi-cians who are in bed with thegreedy developers who can careless about us, only the dollar.

Hawks no helpIt’s inevitable that Iran will have

“the bomb.” No matter how manysanctions we place against thisrenegade nation, nor how manysanctions the United Nations usesto slow down its development.Iran will have an atomic bomb inthe near future. Already the Re-publican hawks are lining up tobomb Iran or to declare war with-out any knowledge of the country’spast history. Many members of theRepublican-controlled House ofRepresentatives have sworn al-legiance to Israel and PrimeMinister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The old Persian empire doesn’tforget its past enemies. And yes,the United States is on their ene-mies list from events that occurredin the early 1950s. In 1951 thenew duly elected Prime MinisterMohammed Mosaddegh was eagerto see Iran become the first dem-ocratic Islamic nation in theMiddle East. At the same timehe angered the British by nation-alizing the Anglo-Iranian OilCompany. The British were cheat-ing the Iranians out of severalmillion dollars annually. Mosad-degh had no choice but to na-tionalize oil reserves. British oilinterests screamed and wantedthe new prime minister kickedout of office. Therefore, Britishauthorities notified Allen Dallas,head of the newly formed CIA. Acoup was planned between thetwo Western powers, falsely call-ing Mosaddegh a Communist.Consequently a coup followed;the prime minister was arrestedand hanged.

We have seen gibberish talkcoming from Iranian PresidentMahmoud Ahmadinejad in thepast few years, stating that hewill use an atomic bomb againstIsrael. This is highly unlikely.First, those in control of powerwill not allow their stooge todrop a bomb. The atomic falloutalone would nearly eliminateeveryone in Israel. Then theeastern drift of radioactive fall-out would fall on Syria, Jordan,Iraq, and Saudi Arabia and pos-sibly Iran itself — killing thou-sands of Muslims. The Iraniansare aware of the plight they haveput themselves in.

If war does break out in theMiddle East, hopefully the UnitedStates will not get involved.

L.M. EastmanLecanto

Once again this month, Iwas reminded of thepower of service to our fel-

low citizens, and the impact thatthose who serve can have ontheir community.

As the chairman of the FloridaEducation Foundation, it was mydistinct honor to sponsor theFlorida Teacher of the Yearaward, presented to AlexandreLopes, a Special Edu-cation teacher atCarol City Elemen-tary School in CarolCity, FL.

Mr. Lopes teachespre-school childrenwith severe disabili-ties, some of whomare autistic, and oth-ers who cannot speakor function well ontheir own.

The Florida Educa-tion Foundation haspartnered with Macy’s for thepast 24 years to present theaward to a teacher who demon-strates a superior capacity to in-spire a love of learning in theirstudents, as well as a commit-ment to community service, andseveral other factors. Mr. Lopes iscertainly a deserving, inspiringteacher, and hearing his story tookme back more than 35 years, to atime before Florida TaxWatch.

I once seriously considered be-coming a Special Educationteacher myself, and was fortunateenough to spend some time vol-unteering for the Dade CountyAssociation for Retarded Citi-zens, working as a “big brother”with a severely physically and

mentally disabled 8-year-old boynamed Anthony, and later withhis sister Doreen, who had simi-lar disabilities.

Working with children with se-vere physical and cognitive dis-abilities is at the same time oneof the most challenging thingsthat one can do, and one of themost sincerely rewarding. I feltthat I needed to do something

worthwhile for some-one and that a one-on-one relationship coulddo that most effec-tively, and so after atraining course withother volunteers, Iwas matched with An-thony, and my realtraining began.

As I suspect is thecase with many of us,I went into this expe-rience wonderingwhat an 8-year-old

who couldn’t speak would be ca-pable of? How would he commu-nicate? What would I be able todo for him? After working withAnthony for a short while, I dis-covered a variety of other ways tocommunicate; subtle things thatyou must be truly engaged to in-terpret, and saw that childrenwith these challenges are trulycapable of learning and experi-encing the world, just in theirown way.

I learned more than I couldever have imagined in my timewith Anthony and Doreen, takinglessons away that I was able touse later in raising my own chil-dren, and in my life as a whole,and I will always cherish those

memories. This experiencetaught me the importance of serv-ice, of doing all that you can forthose in your community, andoutside of it, and how genuineservice can make you a betterperson.

One of the guiding principlesthat I have tried to follow in my 32years at Florida TaxWatch is thatwe are first and foremost actingin the service of our fellowFloridians. This service may notbe the same as working one-on-one with an individual, but that’sthe beauty of community service— there are so many ways tomake an impact.

From working with disabled in-dividuals, to volunteering forarts, education, and social serv-ice organizations, to helpingthose in need of shelter and agood meal, any amount of serviceis time well-spent. We all must re-member that any successes weare fortunate enough to have hadcame as a result of the generosityand time of many giving individ-uals along the way, beginningwith parents, teachers, family,and friends. Donating your timeto a valuable cause in your com-munity can be extremely reward-ing, not only to those directlyimpacted, but on yourself, onyour local community, and in thelong run, on us all.

The president & CEO of FloridaTaxWatch for the past 30 years,

Dominic Calabro has had aclose-up view of Florida’s ever-changing fiscal and

economic policies.

Graves’ vision,experience tip

the scalesThe race for Fifth Circuit

public defender pits twoveteran Republican

lawyers — Mike Graves of LakeCounty and Bo Samargya ofBrooksville — in a primarycontest to replace the retiringlong-time incumbent Howard“Skip” Babb Jr. Since there isno Democraticcandidate, thewinner of this pri-mary will win thepost, so both De-mocrats and Re-publicans areeligible to vote inthis contest.

The public de-fender’s officerepresents indi-gent persons in criminal prose-cutions. The Fifth JudicialCircuit includes Citrus, Her-nando, Lake, Marion, andSumter counties. Each countyhas a branch of the public de-fender’s office staffed with at-torneys and support personnel.The public defender managesa total staff of approximately130 employees and a budget ofapproximately $7.25 million.

Both candidates bring somelevel of experience in the pub-lic defender’s office, thoughGraves had a supervisory roleas the chief assistant in the of-fice during the five years heworked under Babb whileSamargya did not have super-visory responsibility during histime in the office.

Both attorneys have been inprivate practice for the lastseveral years, although Samar-gya has had previous experi-ence in the state attorney’soffice as a prosecutor, whileGraves’ work has been prima-rily as a defense attorney.

Both candidates offer sug-gestions for improving func-tions of the public defender’soffice, which is the secondlargest law office in the area,

after the State Attorney’s Of-fice, which prosecutes crimes.

Graves cites as his qualifica-tions for the office his 29 yearsas a lawyer, his administrativeexperience as chief assistant inthe public defender’s office,and his experience as a triallawyer, with more than 250 jury

trials and 15 deathpenalty trials.

Samargya citeshis 18 years as anattorney, his expe-rience as a prose-cutor, his businessexperience, andhis military expe-rience as his qual-ifications.

While Graveshas extensive trial and admin-istrative experience, he hasbeen reprimanded by theFlorida Bar for failing to pro-vide timely responses to com-plaints from clients whoclaimed he did not adequatelydefend them. Graves acknowl-edges his error in failing to re-spond in a timely fashion tothese complaints, and says helearned from the experience.We believe his overall experi-ence and the endorsement ofhis candidacy by both the in-cumbent public defender andthe state attorney outweighsthis negative.

While both have relevant ex-perience for serving in the job,on balance, Graves appears tohave a better backgroundbased on his administrative ex-perience and his extensivework as a defense attorney andas a senior official in the publicdefender’s office. He also ap-pears to have a better vision forthe role of the public de-fender’s office and how to im-prove its efficiency.

For these reasons, we urgevoters to choose Mike Gravesas the public defender for theFifth Judicial District.

THE ISSUE:Fifth Circuit public

defender race.

OUR OPINION:Graves has the edge

in experience, background.

Immigrants’ languageTo the person who wrote “Fruits

of capitalism:” That person does-n’t realize that our country ismade up of, from the time ofWorld War I and II whenPolish people, Germanpeople, Lithuanian, allthe foreign people whocame over through EllisIsland to this country andimmediately got jobs,taught themselves Eng-lish, learned to speakEnglish, which is the lan-guage of this country. Itis not Spanish or someother language; it is Eng-lish. That is what madethis country great.

Progress impededRe: “Progress report,”

Joseph Ryan, Letters to theEditor, July 20.

Mr. Ryan views our for-eign relations as weak andinconsistent, but our cur-rent secretary of statebroke a record for travelingto deal with a variety of is-sues. Much of the continu-ing but increasinginstability in the MiddleEast is a result of PresidentGeorge W. Bush’s invasionof Iraq, done not only on afalse premise but upsettingthe delicate ethno-religiousbalance which has turnedinto Iraqi support of Iraneven after billions of wasteddollars and thousands oflives. Those wars galvanizedthe soaring deficit after Bushdecimated the surplusPresident Bill Clinton hadbuilt. President BarackObama is still disengagingfrom those two (Afghanistan)useless efforts, neither ofwhich achieved its pur-ported goals.

As for Medicare, thepresident’s health plan ad-dresses that, but is railedagainst with misleadingrhetoric. A Kaiser Founda-tion survey of 10 questionsregarding its aspectsclearly shows the publichas a very distorted view ofwhat it contains. Two-thirds of respondents an-swered only two correctly.

Only one in four under-stood the requirement forsmall business or the factthat the plan is not govern-ment-run.

The class division is nota product of some left-wingcampaign. For the past twodecades, our country’s eco-nomic profile has growncloser to that of a Third Worldcountry, with well over 90percent of the wealth in thehands of the 1 percent.

Yet any effort to close taxloopholes or increase taxes

on the wealthy is blockedby Republicans, who havebeen taken over by right-wing extremists.

Meanwhile, the Forbes400 now consists entirely ofbillionaires. There are noqualms about bailing outthe wealthy, even as theirbankruptcies do not impederecord-breaking CEO bonuses.And now the real LIBORstory will show how thewealthy are enrichingthemselves at the expenseof the rest.

Our nation’s infrastruc-ture is a shambles, but Re-publicans blocked Obama’sstimulus package in 2009and his jobs bill in 2011.Even moderate Republi-cans have become disen-chanted with the effort toevict him from office at theexpense of dealing with is-sues of substance.

Mr. Ryan, we have a decid-edly different perspective.

Incomplete pictureMy friends will tell you that

my first question to themafter traveling abroad is“What was your most inter-esting cultural experience?”

In Tom O’Hara’s brief de-scription of his life in theUAE (Florida Voices, July21), he focuses mostly onthe material aspects ofEmirati life and says littleabout its culture. While heacknowledges the rich, ad-mires the servant class,and feels sorry for foreignnationals working there, hefails to communicate anyinteraction with them thatmight give the reader a bet-ter understanding of thiscountry. I am sure that hehad cultural exchangeswhile living there apartfrom those on the golfcourse. His article wouldhave been more interesting

had he related some.

Shame on adultsThere is a lot of discus-

sion concerning the “re-quired tests” for a studentto pass in order to advancein school. We had this prob-lem many years ago and“solved” it with “social pro-motions.”

What a joke that turnedout to be.

Students were allowed togrow steadily less compe-tent every year until today,when some high schoolseniors are unable to readat a sixth-grade level, per-form simple math prob-lems or write atwo-paragraph paper ex-plaining why we shouldallow this to continue.

It seems that anythinggoes as long as we maintainan acceptable percentageof students each year,proudly marching acrossthe stage, collecting theirdiplomas and then signingup for S.N.A.P. for a life-time of handouts.

We are doing them agreat disservice!

Let me repeat that: Weare doing them a great dis-service!

If we continue to fail totrain them, even to func-tion at a sub-par level, whatcan we expect from them?

None will excel in anyfield, save lawn mainte-nance or dishwasher in alocal restaurant.

We are cheating themand ourselves unless wehold them to some sem-blance of a standard.

They deserve more thanwe are giving them. Shameon us.

Global giveawayMrs. Harbin’s letter of

July 16 takes Gov. RickScott to task for travelingto Europe to try to bringjobs and tourists back toFlorida. If more jobs andtourists come to Florida,then it was money wellspent, in my opinion.However, I agree with herthat it should be lookedinto to make sure thatpersonal expenses forhim and his entourageare not charged to thestate.

But does she feel asstrongly as I do about ourgovernment sending bil-lions of our tax dollars andjobs overseas via the $800billion stimulus package?Here’s where some of themoney went: solar panelsbuilt in Mexico, electricdelivery trucks assembledin Great Britain, cars builtin Finland and parts tobuild U.S. wind-powerfarms that came fromSouth Korea, Japan andMexico. The most ironic“investment” of our stimu-lus money might be a $178million payment that wentto Babcock & Brown, abankrupt Australian com-pany that built a Texaswind farm using turbinesmade by a Japanese company.

Or the stimulus moneyinvested on Solyndra ($528million), Evergreen Solar($5.3 million), SpectraWatt($500,000), Mountain Plaza($2 million), Olsen Mills($10 million) and Amonix($20 million), which haveall filed for bankruptcy. Taxdollars never to be seenagain.

Sometimes it’s hard tosee the forest for the trees,Mrs. Harbin.

Cats have to eatI was just reading (the

Sound Off) in the paperthis morning (July 23)about the “Cats causingtrouble.” The lady or man,whoever it was, in Whis-pering Pines Park, saidshe or he took the deadrabbit away from the catbecause she felt so sadabout it. But all she suc-ceeded in doing was caus-ing another rabbit to bekilled because the cat wasjust looking for somethingto eat. They deserve to benot hungry too.

Cat’s dinnerIn reference to the

Sound Off in today’sChronicle, “Cats causingtrouble,” Monday (July

23): You, whoeveryou are, are partof the problem inthis country. Youjust don’t knowhow to mind yourown business.You took fromthat cat food. Therabbit was dead,but you thoughtyou’d do the rightthing. Why don’tyou mind your

own business. The cat’sdoing what it naturallydoes in the wild. It’s ahunter. Mind your busi-ness.

Help us leaveAfter reading Gerry Mul-

ligan’s article, “Educateand vote,” I would like toknow if there is someonefrom the tea party, theReagan party or the con-servative party that wouldlike to buy our well-kept,furnished doublewide with2-1/2 acres of naturalwoods in a secluded area.My wife and I have de-cided we don’t belonghere, even after 11 yearsand spending thousandsof dollars. One reason isyour politics are one-partyand you have to belongjust to live here. I couldsay more, but it wouldtake a whole page. So canyou help us out so we canmove back to our homestate where we can live inreality?

Penalty stupidSo many tragedies in

this country going aroundin Aurora, Colo., PennState and so forth. But topenalize Penn State forthe future is kind of stu-pid. It’s like if a governorof a state did somethingwrong, to penalize thewhole state.

Iraq still a messGee, I understand our

president made a speechto the VFW today and saidthe war in Iraq is over. Un-fortunately, there was 93people killed in bombingstoday. We left that place ina disgrace, in a shambles.Every place we go any-more, we stir the pot andthen leave and leave it inturmoil. Oh, well.

Mall’s problemI’d like to voice my opin-

ion about the CrystalRiver Mall. I went into theOcala mall about twoweeks ago with my wifeand the place was nearlypacked with people. Allthe stores were open andthere was lots and lots ofpeople shopping. Theproblem with Crystal RiverMall is, the population isnothing like the Ocala area.

What changed?Now that they’ve changed

Republican stateThis is in response to the

article in the Sound Off(that states): “‘GOP-spon-sored crackdown on voters.’I’ll bet if the Chron-icle looks into it, I’llbet you’ll find Re-publicans behindthe bill becausethis is mostly aDemocratic state.”Well, get your factsstraight. This is amostly Republicanstate. Remember,we have a Republi-can governor andwe’ve got a Repub-lican Senate and a Republi-can Congress in Florida. TheRepublicans have total con-trol of the state. It is not aDemocratic state.

our president, our candi-dates, our legislators getafter the movie industry tochange the kind of moviesthey’re making to encour-age people to be much bet-ter citizens and moreobedient to their parents in-stead of this violence thatthey portray to encouragekids to do this stuff.

Occupy childrenI agree with (the Sound

Off titled) “Misdiagnosis,”the teacher (commenting)about too many parents arequick to get a pill for Johnnyor Susie because they fidgetat home. Children not onlyneed to be kept busy by par-ents, instead of using theTV programs to babysitthem. Some need somephysical exercise outside;some need mind-occupyingexercise. They also needsome home-cooked foodsinstead of store-boughtfoods filled with too muchsalt, too much sugar andtoo many vitamins, in theearly years when theyshould be getting home-cooked meals. Most chil-dren are full of energy butare stymied by parents who,too, have never learned tocook or clean house, wereoccupied by TV. Your childneeds your time, not TVtime, to teach them some-thing better than just watch-ing a television programwhich could be very bad ifit’s violent.

WASHINGTON — Republicansaccused President Barack Obamaof trying to keep middle-classAmericans in the dark aboutwhether they’ll lose their jobs fromimpending defense cuts as a LaborDepartment memo cautioning con-tractors about layoff notices set offpolitical recriminations.

“The president doesn’t want peo-ple reading about pink slips in theweeks before his election, so theWhite House is telling people tokeep the effects of these cuts a se-cret until after the election,” SenateMinority Leader Mitch McConnell,R-Ky., said Tuesday in a speech onthe Senate floor.

The memo advised federal con-tractors — major defense firmsamong them — that they do nothave to warn their employees aboutpotential layoffs from the auto-matic, across-the-board budget cutsthat kick in Jan. 2. A law, known asthe WARN Act, says those noticeswould have to go out 60 days in ad-vance, arriving in mailboxes fourdays before the Nov. 6 election.

The guidance letter said it wouldbe “inappropriate” for employers tosend such warnings because it isstill speculative if and where the$110 billion in automatic cuts mightoccur. About half the cuts would bein defense.

The White House did make clearTuesday that Obama would exer-

cise his authority under last year’sbudget law and exempt militarypersonnel from any automatic de-fense cuts.

Pressed on the issue Tuesday,Labor Department spokeswomanElizabeth Alexander said “there isan insufficient factual basis for em-ployers to form a business judgmentabout whether or not their contractswill be affected.”

Democrats insist the cuts couldbe averted if Republicans werewilling to consider tax increases onhigh-wage earners as part of abudget compromise.

“By refusing to replace cuts withrevenues, Republicans are puttingmillionaires ahead of the middleclass and the military,” Senate Ma-

jority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.,told reporters.

In the midst of the tiff, the WhiteHouse told agency officials Tuesdayto “continue normal spending andoperations” since more than fivemonths remain for Congress to act toavert the automatic across-the-boardcuts known as “sequestration.”

Acting White House budget chiefJeffrey Zients said Obama remainsconfident that lawmakers will act toaddress the automatic spending cuts,which he described as “highly de-structive.” Zients said in a memo toagency heads that the budget officewill be consulting with agencies onhow the spending cuts would have tobe implemented if Congress andObama together fail to stop them.

NEW DELHI — Electric crema-toria were snuffed out with bodiesinside, New Delhi’s Metro shutdown and hundreds of coal minerswere trapped underground afterthree Indian electric grids col-lapsed in a cascade Tuesday, cut-ting power to 620 million people inthe world’s biggest blackout.

While Indians were furious andembarrassed, many took the crisis instride, inured by the constant —though far less widespread — out-ages triggered by the huge electricitydeficit stymieing the development ofthis would-be Asian power.

Hospitals, factories and the air-ports switched automatically totheir diesel generators during thehours-long cut across half of India.Many homes relied on backup sys-tems powered by truck batteries.And hundreds of millions of India’spoorest had no electricity to lose.

“The blackout might have beenhuge, but it wasn’t unbearablylong,” said Satish, the owner of acoffee and juice shop in centralDelhi who uses only one name. “Itwas just as bad as any other five-hour power cut. We just used a gen-erator while the light was out, andit was work as usual.”

The crisis was the second record-breaking outage in two days. India’snorthern grid failed Monday, leav-ing 370 million people powerlessfor much of the day, in a collapse

blamed on states that drew morethan their allotment of power.

At 1:05 p.m. Tuesday, the north-ern grid collapsed again, energy of-ficials said. This time, it took theeastern grid and the northeasterngrid with it. In all, 20 of India’s 28states — with double the popula-tion of the United States — werehit in a region stretching from theborder with Myanmar in the north-east to the Pakistani border about1,870 miles away.

Hundreds of trains stalled acrossthe country and traffic lights wentout, causing widespread jams in

New Delhi. West Bengal Chief Min-ister Mamata Banerjee asked of-fice workers to go home andrushed generators to coal mines torescue trapped miners.

Power Minister Sushil KumarShinde said the new crisis had thesame root as Monday’s collapse.

“Everyone overdraws from thegrid. Just this morning I held ameeting with power officials fromthe states and I gave directions thatstates that overdraw should bepunished. We have given instruc-tions that their power supply couldbe cut,” he said.

JOLIET, Ill. — The mur-der trial of former suburbanChicago police sergeantDrew Peterson began Tues-day with dueling explana-tions of his third wife’sdeath, clashes over evi-dence and a teary witness’description of finding herfriend’s body.

Prosecutors gave jurorsan account that could havecome from a 1940s pulpnovel, in which a man doeswhatever he must — includ-ing murder — to keep his ex-wife’s hands off his money.

On the other side, Peter-son’s attorneys argued theformer officer was a victimof something newer: a 24-hour news cycle and cableTV’s talking heads, whichtogether created a mediafrenzy that did not subsideuntil prosecutors hadcharged an innocent man.

Peterson, 58, is chargedwith first-degree murder inthe 2004 death of his thirdwife, 40-year-old KathleenSavio. He is suspected butnot charged in the 2007 dis-appearance of his fourthwife, Stacy Peterson. He hasdenied wrongdoing in bothcases.

The real-life drama in-spired a TV movie and at-tracted national attention,as many speculatedwhether Peterson used hislaw-enforcement expertiseto get away with Savio’smurder and make 23-year-old Stacy Peterson vanish.

The prosecution’s witnesswas Mary Pontarelli, aneighbor who discoveredSavio’s body in a dry bath-tub, her hair soaked withblood.

“I saw Kathleen in thetub, ran out, threw myself onthe ground and startedscreaming,” she said, hervoice cracking.

Pontarelli testified thatPeterson then ran up thestairs, took Savio’s pulseand declared somberly,“She is dead.”

During Tuesday’s pro-ceedings, Peterson ap-peared relaxed but engaged,jotting notes and occasion-ally looking at the crowdedspectators’ benches.

DETROIT — General Motors’ adsjust aren’t getting the job done.

Since the company left bank-ruptcy three years ago, its adshaven’t boosted sales much. Thecompany’s biggest campaign,“Chevy Runs Deep,” has failed togenerate buzz. And now, GM hasforced out its star marketing chiefjust as it launches two key vehicles.

The lackluster ads and loss ofmarketing head Joel Ewanick raisedoubts about GM’s ability to im-

prove sales longer term. Expertssay that even though it’s making bet-ter cars and trucks, advertising hasfailed to get the message across. De-spite spending upwards of $4 billiona year on marketing, GM hasn’tbeen able to dent the perceptionthat other brands are better.

“GM continues to have an imageproblem, which really isn’t fair be-cause their products are vastly im-proved,” says Rebecca Lindland, ananalyst with IHS Automotive, an in-dustry consulting firm.

GM’s U.S. sales rose just 4 percent

in the first half of the year, laggingthe 15 percent gain for the industry.The growth is paltry compared withincreases of more than 30 percent atbrands like Volkswagen andChrysler. Sales at two GM brands,Cadillac and Buick, have fallen, andGM’s share of the U.S. market hasdropped almost two points in thepast year to 18.1 percent.

“Nothing from a pure advertisingpoint of view popped,” says LarryDominique, Executive Vice Presi-dent of the TrueCar.com auto pric-ing site and a former Nissanproduct planning executive.

GM’s July sales, due out Wednes-day, are expected to be stagnant. And

analysts predict its second-quarterearnings will show a decline whenthey’re announced on Thursday.

Instead of flashbacks to vintageChevys and sentimental storiesabout soldiers returning home, theads should have emphasized GM’simproved cars and trucks, saysCharles R. Taylor, a marketing pro-fessor at the Villanova UniversitySchool of Business.

“The idea that many consumersare going to buy it simply based onthe heritage is misguided,” he says.“You really need to give the con-sumer a reason to buy the productbeyond just long-term brandloyalty.”

Baseball’s haves picked upmore players from the have-notsat Tuesday’s trade deadline, whenRyan Dempster was dealt fromthe Chicago Cubs to the TexasRangers and Shane Victorino,Hunter Pence and Jonathan Brox-

ton all wound up on new teams.Matt Garza, Josh Johnson and

Joe Blanton stayed put for now asthe window closed for clubs tomake trades without having play-ers pass through waivers.

Four days after the AL Westrival Los Angeles Angels acquiredformer Cy Young Award winner

Zack Geinke, the Rangers ob-tained Dempster for infielderChristian Villanueva and pitcherKyle Hendricks. Texas also ac-quired catcher Geovany Soto fromthe Cubs for right-hander JakeBrigham.

“It’s a great opportunity overthere,” Dempster said. “It’s notgoing to be easy. There are a lot ofteams out there that are reallygood. I think they have as good achance as anybody.”

Dempster, who will replace Roy

Oswalt in the rotation, had powerto block deals and refused to ap-prove a trade to Atlanta last week.

“I just never said no,” he ex-plained. “The last few days, I hadto give it a lot more thought to theteams I might possibly be traded to.”

Dempster was 5-5 with a 2.25ERA in 16 starts for the Cubs andcan become a free agent after theseason.

Phelps swims into history with 19th Olympic medalAssociated Press

LONDON — Michael Phelpslingered on the blocks, not want-ing to make another shockingblunder. The 19th medal washis. All he had to do was avoid aDQ, then set off on whatamounted to four victory laps.

Down and back, then downand back again, the roars gettinglouder with each stroke.

When Phelps touched thewall, he finally had gold at hisfinal Olympics.

And a record for the ages.Phelps swam into history with

a lot of help from his friends,taking down the last majorrecord that wasn’t his alone. Hetook the anchor leg for theUnited States in a gold medal-winning performance of the4x200-meter freestyle relayTuesday night, earning the 19thOlympic medal of his brilliantcareer, and the 15th gold.

A more appropriate color.“I’ve put my mind to doing

something that nobody had everdone before,” Phelps said. “Thishas been an amazing ride.”

About an hour earlier, Phelpstook one of his most frustratingdefeats at the pool, blowing it atthe finish and settling for silverin his signature event, the 200butterfly.

That tied the record for ca-reer medals held by Soviet gym-nast Larisa Latynina, but it washardly a triumphant moment.Phelps slung away his cap indisgust and struggled to force asmile at the medal ceremony.

But any disappointment fromthat race was gone by the time hedived in the water on the relay,having been staked to a hugelead by teammates Ryan Lochte,Conor Dwyer and Ricky Berens.

Before the race, they all hud-dled together, fully aware oftheir role in history.

“I thanked those guys forhelping me get to this moment,”Phelps said. “I told those guys Iwanted a big lead. I was like,‘You better give me a big leadgoing into the last lap,’ and theygave it to me. I just wanted tohold on. I thanked them forbeing able to allow me to havethis moment.”

Berens handed off a lead ofnearly 4 seconds to Phelps, whowas extra cautious with the ex-change, knowing the only wayhe could ruin this one was to getdisqualified.

LONDON — Halftime ended. Show-time began.

The U.S. men’s Olympic basketballteam needed a while but eventuallyput on the show fans came to see, beat-ing Tunisia 110-63 on Tuesday night.

Finally pulling away when coachMike Krzyzewski started the reservesto open the second half, the Americanshad six players in double figures andimproved to 2-0 in the tournament.

Krzyzewski insists he planned tostart the second unit even before alackluster first half, and said therewas nothing bad about the Americans’performance.

“It’s not going to (be) a perfect thing,you know?” he said. “But overall tonightwas good. I mean, come on, it was 110-63.”

True, it was a 47-point blowout, butthe lead was just 13 at the half and hesure didn’t look pleased as he walkedquickly to the locker room. But if he did-n’t see anything wrong, the players suredid — though they weren’t concerned.

“We told him, don’t get worried,”Carmelo Anthony said. “We’re allright.”

They sure were.Anthony, Deron Williams, Russell

Westbrook, Kevin Love and AndreIguodala opened the third quarterwith a 21-3 run, turning a surprisinglyclose 13-point lead into a 67-36 bulgebefore any of the more celebratedstarters finally got to play in the sec-ond half.

“That was a great lift, man. That’sthe best thing about this team, there’sno drop off,” Kevin Durant said.“We’ve got All-Stars off the bench.Those guys did (a) great job for us.”

Anthony and Love scored 16 pointsapiece for the Americans, who gavethe fans the dunk show they expectedonce the game was in hand. Duranthad 13 and rookie Anthony Davisdunked his way to 12.

But they had to work hard to makethis one look easy.

The game against the Olympic new-comers wasn’t expected to be close formore than a few minutes. The dailypreview in the press center said it“could prove to be one of the most lop-sided matchups of London 2012.”

The Americans maybe expected thiswould simply be like a practice — theyeven decided to cancel Wednesday’sworkout some 11 hours earlier.

Yet they found themselves in a five-point game late in the first half,launching 3-pointers when they could-n’t be stopped inside.

The second unit simply appeared tocompete much harder, with Williamseven playing one defensive possessionwith one shoe after the other fell off.Love briefly had to come out after bang-ing knees, but was able to return later.

Lochte stood on the deck,waving his arms. Dwyer andBerens pumped their fists.And Phelps touched thewall for his first gold of theLondon Games with a cu-mulative time of 6 minutes,59.70 seconds.

No one else was close.France’s Yannick Agnelswam a faster final leg thanPhelps, but it wasn’t nearlygood enough, his countrytaking silver in 7:02.77.China was far back in thirdat 7:06.30.

Phelps might have backedinto the record a bit by fail-ing to win any of his firstthree events at these games,but there’s no denying hislegacy as one of the greatestOlympians ever — if not thegreatest.

“The legacy he has left be-hind for swimming is fantas-tic,” said South AfricanChad le Clos, the guy whobeat him in the butterfly.“Even in Africa, everyoneknows Michael Phelps.”

Phelps has 15 golds in hiscareer, six more than any-one else, to go along withtwo silvers and two bronzes.After failing to medal in hisonly race at the 2000 SydneyGames, he won six golds andtwo bronzes in Athens, fol-lowed by his epic eight goldmedals in Beijing. And nowthe swan song, not nearly asepic but enough.

Latynina won nine golds,

five silvers and four bronzesfrom 1956-64.

“You are now a completelegend!” the public-addressannouncer bellowed, ac-companied by the FooFighters’ song “Best of You.”

Phelps still has three moreevents in London before heretires, three more chancesto establish a mark that willbe hard for anyone to touch.

“It has been a prettyamazing career,” the 27-year-old said, “but we stillhave a couple races to go.”

Several fans held up abedsheet with “PHELPSGREATEST OLYMPIANEVER” handwritten on it.

Hard to argue with that,though this hasn’t exactlybeen the farewell Phelpswas hoping for — a sluggishfourth-place finish in the400 individual medley, arunner-up showing in the4x100 free relay, then an-other silver in the 200 fly.

The 200 fly was a race hehad not lost at either theOlympics or world champi-onships since Sydney, whenhe finished fifth as an un-known 15-year-old just soak-ing up the moment, a kidwith big dreams but no ideathey would turn out like this.

Phelps, after leading theentire race, tried to glideinto the wall instead of tak-ing one more stroke. Le Clostook that extra stroke andbeat Phelps by five-hun-dredths of a second.

“Obviously I would haveliked to have a better out-come in the 200 fly,” Phelpssaid. “I was on the receivingend of getting touched out.Chad swam a good race. I’vegotten to know him a littleover the last year. He’s ahard worker, he’s a toughcompetitor and he’s a racer.”

Le Clos pounded thewater when he saw the “1”beside his name.

“He has always been aninspiration to me and a rolemodel,” le Clos said. “I’vewatched all his races a mil-lion times and I’ve run thecommentary over and over.Now, I guess I can watch myrace.”

Phelps hung on the lanerope and buried his face inhis hands, disgusted withhimself for having squan-dered what looked like asure gold. Le Clos wonSouth Africa’s second swim-ming gold of the games in atime of 1:52.96. Phelps fin-ished in 1:53.01, whileJapan’s Takeshi Matsudatook the bronze in 1:53.21.

“It’s obviously my lastone,” Phelps said. “I wouldhave liked to win, but 1:53flat isn’t a terrible time.When you look at the pic-ture of it, it’s a decent time.”

But the finish was a stun-ner, given that Phelps hadwon a memorable race atBeijing when a rival madethe very same error. MiloradCavic of Serbia thought hehad the 100 fly in the bagafter his final stroke, butPhelps made the split-seconddecision to get in one morestroke and slammed into thewall — one-hundredth of asecond ahead of Cavic.

This time, it was Phelpson the losing end. He wasagain denied a chance to be-come the first male swim-mer to win the sameindividual event at threestraight Olympics, thoughhe can still do it in the 200individual medley and the100 butterfly.

Judo fighter may wearheadscarf during event

A female judo fighter fromSaudi Arabia was cleared towear a form of headscarf in theOlympics after a compromisewas reached that respects the“cultural sensitivity” of the Muslimkingdom.

Judo officials had said theywould not let Wojdan Ali SerajAbdulrahim Shahrkhani com-pete in a headscarf because itwas against the principles of thesport and raised safety con-cerns. But an agreement wasreached after several days ofIOC-brokered talks between theInternational Judo Federationand the Saudi Olympic Commit-tee, allowing her to compete Fri-day in the heavyweight division.

“They have a solution thatworks for both parties, all par-ties involved,” InternationalOlympic Committeespokesman Mark Adams said.“The athlete will compete.”

Saudi Arabia, which hadnever sent female athletes to theOlympics before, brought its twofirst female Olympians to Lon-don on condition they adhere tothe kingdom’s Islamic traditions,including wearing a headscarf.

Shahrkhani’s participationwas thrown into doubt last

week when judo officials said aheadscarf could be dangerousbecause of chokeholds and ag-gressive grabbing techniques.

Without giving precise details,Adams said the headscarf agree-ment is in line with Asian judorules and is “safety compliant butallows for cultural sensitivity.”

Teen breaks IM record,accused of doping

Olympic officials defendedChinese teen swimmer Ye Shi-wen against whispers of dopingafter she won the 400-meter in-dividual medley Saturday inworld-record time — and shemade her own statement bywinning another gold medal inthe 200 IM on Tuesday night.

The 16-year-old clocked2:07.57 to shave 0.18 off herown mark set in Monday’ssemifinal — good enough foran Olympic record and her sec-ond gold medal in London.

Ye had closed the 400 with alap of 28.93 seconds — fasterthan the 29.10 Lochte posted inthe last 50 of the men’s race.Ye’s time was 4:28.43, morethan a second faster than theprevious world record set byAustralia’s Stephanie Rice atthe 2008 Beijing Games in anow-banned bodysuit.

John Leonard, head of the

American Swimming CoachesAssociation but not a memberof the U.S. Olympic staff, wasamong those openly question-ing Ye’s legitimacy. TheGuardian newspaper quotedhim as saying the last 100 ofher 400 IM race “was reminis-cent of some old East Germanswimmers.”

Asked about Leonard’s com-ments, FINA president JulioMaglione told The AssociatedPress people are free to say“stupid things” if they want.

Allison Schmitt reacts to her gold medal win in thewomen’s 200-meter freestyle swimming final Tuesday atthe Aquatics Centre in the Olympic Park during the 2012Summer Olympics in London.

off a debate over whetherthis is the best U.S. team ofall time. Romania won thebronze.

“Others might disagree.The ’96 team might disagree.But this is the best team,” U.S.coach John Geddert said.

The Americans didn’tbotch a single routine, andall but three of their 12scores were 15.0 or higher.The Russians, on the otherhand, had just one scoreabove 15 in their last twoevents as they unraveleddown the stretch. They saton the sidelines snifflingand watching glumly as theAmericans turned theirfinal event, floor exercise,into a coronation.

When the final standingsflashed, chants of “U-S-A! U-S-A!” rocked the arena, andthe U.S. women, whobacked up to get a better

view of the scoreboard, heldup their index fingers forthe cameras — in case any-one had a doubt.

“The feeling was incredi-ble,” world champion Jor-dyn Wieber said. “To havethis gold medal around yourneck, it’s really an inde-scribable feeling.”

The Americans had comeinto the last two Olympics asworld champions, only toleave without the gold. Butnational team coordinatorMartha Karolyi recognizedsix months ago that this wasa special group, strongerthan previous U.S. teams.

It’s not just the titles theseAmericans have won,though there are plenty: lastyear’s team gold at the worldchampionships, along withWieber’s all-around crownand McKayla Maroney’s titleon vault. It’s their fiercecompetitiveness, and the un-shakable faith they have inthemselves. Rather thanflinching under the weightof the heavy expectations, it

made them stronger. Whenthey noticed the Russiansand Romanians peeking inon their training sessions,they cranked up the oomphin their routines, the betterto intimidate.

Even Wieber’s failure toqualify for the all-aroundfinal, which left her team-

mates stunned followingSunday’s sessions, turned outto be a minor speedbump.

“I told them just believe inyourself,” Maroney said.“Live up to that Olympic mo-ment, because you’re never,ever going to forget it.”

Unforgettable, like theirperformance.

MANCHESTER, England — AbbyWambach became the first non-British woman to score a goal at OldTrafford. She and her teammatescelebrated by coercing Hope Solo toget on the ground and do “theworm.”

There were other such momentsunfamiliar to the venerable home ofManchester United on Tuesday,when chants of “U-S-A!” echoed forthe Americans’ 1-0 win over NorthKorea in front of 29,522 fans — eas-ily the largest crowd ever to occupythe familiar red seats for a women’sgame.

“The worm at Old Trafford! Areyou kidding me?” Solo said.

The victory gave the U.S. teamfirst place in its group with threewins in three games, the first timethe Americans have ever swepttheir group opponents in Olympicplay. They were already assured aberth in the next round entering thegame, and they’ll now move on toNewcastle for a quarterfinal matchFriday against New Zealand.

Although claiming to be a reluc-tant participant, Solo and captainChristie Rampone flopped to theground after Wambach’s goal in the25th minute. The other nine playersjoined hands, wriggled their armslike a giant worm and pointed to thepair of players doing the funkydance move from the 1970s and ’80s.

“Hope doesn’t get involved in thecelebrations very often,” Wambachsaid. “And so we wanted to get herinvolved, and she said the worm isone of the things that she can con-

tribute, so we kind of planned it outbefore the game. Thankfully we gotthe goal so that we could actuallydisplay it.”

Solo could probably pick anydance she wanted, having appearedon “Dancing With the Stars” last year.Wambach said the celebration was alate birthday present for the goal-keeper, who turned 31 on Monday,but it also served to reinforce teamcamaraderie after Solo’s recent Twit-ter rant that prompted a meetingwith the coach and captains.

“I think that Hope prefers thewins and the shutouts as birthdaypresents,” Wambach said. “But itwas great to get her involved be-cause it makes us feel what thegame is about. It’s about fun. It’sabout laughing and enjoying it outthere — because how often are yougoing to say you played at Old Traf-ford and scored a goal?”

The North Koreans finished witha 1-2 record in the group and stillhad a chance to advance, but theywere eliminated later in the day

when New Zealand claimed thefinal quarterfinal berth with a winover Cameroon.

North Korea is ranked in the top10 in the world, but it remains anunknown in women’s soccer be-cause players and officials havelimited interaction with otherteams. The country sent a veryyoung squad to these Olympics: Theaverage age of 19 years, 11 monthsmade it look like a junior club nextto the Americans, who checked in at28 years, 1 month.

“Part of what was trou-bling here is there wasknowledge of the represen-tatives or third parties beinginvolved in the recruitingprocess and (UCF officials)facilitated that,” he saidTuesday.

In a news conference torespond to the NCAA’s find-ings, UCF president JohnHitt said while he “gener-ally accepts” the penaltieslevied, the school will ap-peal the postseason ban infootball.

“We just don’t feel the vi-olations outlined in theNCAA bylaws justify thesanctions,” Hitt said.

UCF has 15 days to file itsnotice of appeal, and Hittsaid his understanding isthe appeals process should

carry beyond the 2012 foot-ball season. Should theNCAA deny the appeal,UCF would serve the bowlban in 2013.

Hitt called their appeal“well-grounded,” notingnone of the players UCF re-cruited illegally ever actu-ally played football at theschool.

All the punishments stemfrom a 2011 investigationthat found the programswere involved with runnersfor sports agents and madecash payments to recruits.

Former athletics directorKeith Tribble and assistantfootball coach David Kellywere cited for unethicalconduct by the NCAA lastyear and resigned. Tribblewas given a three-yearshow-cause order and Kellya one-year order. It meansany institution that hiresthem in that time mustprove to the NCAA that they

are rules compliant.Basketball coach Donnie

Jones served a three-gamesuspension last season andwas given a three-yearshow-cause order beginningnext season.

Hitt said while dismissalwas considered for Jonesand football coach GeorgeO’Leary, no personal in-volvement was found by theNCAA on O’Leary’s part. Hesaid they thought Jonesmade “errors in judgment”that were punished suffi-ciently in school officials’eyes.

Hitt also acknowledgedUCF’s stiff penalties couldbe a sign the NCAA is fol-lowing up on promises tobeef up enforcement forrules’ violators. As a result ofthe Jerry Sandusky scandal,Penn State was slammedlast week with a four-yearbowl ban and the loss ofdozens of scholarships.

Tom Fazio is noted for designing golfcourses with short risk-reward holes thatchallenge golfers to manage their game in-stead of trying to overpower the course. Forthe golfer who has good course manage-ment, he or she can more effectively takeadvantage of scoring opportunities basedon how these short holes are designed. Forthe player who tries to use power insteadof finesse, he or she will frequently find dis-aster instead of reward and easily be de-railed on such holes that require thecorrect course management.

Tee shotThe decision on the tee is whether to use

a fairway metal or driver.The fairway is quite generous for such a

short hole; however, two areas will need tobe avoided.

The first is to avoid being blocked out bya large oak tree strategically located 50yards short and left of the green. The teeshot will need to be well short of this treeto allow the approach shot to carry over thetree. If the tee shot is hit too close to thetree, you will find yourself having to flightthe approach shot under the limbs thatoverhang this large oak.

The second area that needs to be avoidedis the right fairway bunker about 120 yardsfrom the green. Most right-handed playerstend to hit their golf shots to the right andthis bunker is in an ideal location for thatexact reason.

Second shotThe green contour is similar to an upside

down saucer with a small ridge that runsfrom left to right through the green. Be-cause of this contour, it is difficult to judgethe depth when the flagstick is at the backof the green. It is important to make surethe approach shot ends up on the correct

half (ie. front half or back half) of the greenrelative to the hole location.

Since it is such a short hole, Fazio addedmore excitement with a deep front rightand a more shallow back right greensidebunker. The bunker behind the green is notvisible on the approach shot. Hole locationson the right side of the green are sand-wiched between the two bunkers like thefilling between two Oreo cookies.

A steady hand and a smooth swing withthe exact yardage are paramount if youwish to attack a right hole location on thisgreen; otherwise, apply the suntan lotionand grab your sand wedge.

On the greenThe green is small and has subtle move-

ments that make even the shortest of puttsdifficult. For most golfers, the conservativeapproach to the front left half of the greenor back left half of the green avoids thebunkers. Pin location on the right portion ofthe green will entice even the best playersto take a chance at hitting the perfect shot.

Keep in mind, the difference betweensuccess (ie. birdie or par) and failure (ie. abogey or worse), is defined by only a coupleof yards.

Pro’s tipThis hole invites you to take a chance,

trust your swing and accept the challenge.A solid tee shot will position you in the fair-way, avoiding the right fairway bunkers andallowing enough room to flight your golfball over the large oak tree — I would takedead aim at the flagstick.

Although there are other birdie holes onthe golf course, you won’t find a shorter par4 than the sixth hole at Rolling Oaks. Be ag-gressive, trust your abilities and no matterwhat happens, remember to have fun!

NEW YORK — Chris Davis hit ago-ahead grand slam in the Orioles’seven-run second inning and Balti-more rallied from five runs down tobeat the New York Yankees 11-5 onTuesday night.

Nick Markakis had a two-runhomer among his three hits for theOrioles, who have won four of theirlast six, but finished July 13-14, theirfirst month below .500 all season.

Ivan Nova allowed a career-highnine runs in five innings for NewYork, which tied a season-worst skidwith four straight losses and madesome dubious history in the process.According to STATS, LLC, the Yan-kees haven’t led by five or more afterthe first inning and then trailed afterthe second since at least 1918.

Weaver (14-1) gave up two runs andfive hits in 6 1/3 innings. He became theeighth AL pitcher since 1921 to win atleast six games without a loss in July.

Derek Holland (7-6) took the loss. Ear-lier in the day, Texas acquired ChicagoCubs ace Ryan Dempster in a dealshortly before the trade deadline.

White Sox 4, Twins 3MINNEAPOLIS — A.J. Pierzynski hit a

two-run home run in the ninth inning andthe Chicago White Sox held on to beatthe Minnesota Twins 4-3.

After Alex Rios singled off Jeff Gray (5-1), Pierzynski hit a 0-2 pitch into theright field bleachers for his second homerin as many nights.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Pirates 5, Cubs 0CHICAGO — A.J. Burnett took a no-

hitter into the eighth inning, Neil Walkerdrove in five runs and the Pittsburgh Pi-rates beat Chicago 5-0 after the Cubstraded ace Ryan Dempster.

Burnett just about stole the spotlightafter the Cubs traded their best pitcher toTexas just before the non-waiver dead-line. His bid for a second career no-hitterand the sixth in the majors this seasonended with two outs in the eighth.

He had already hit Darwin Barney inthe helmet with one out before strikingout Luis Valbuena, but his no-hit bidended at the hands of a rookie whenpinch-hitter Adrian Cardenas lined a 3-2pitch to right for a single after two closepitches were called balls.

Phillies 8, Nationals 0WASHINGTON — Cliff Lee threw

seven innings and scored on JimmyRollins’ inside-the-park home run to leadthe Philadelphia Phillies to an 8-0 victoryover the Washington Nationals.

Reds 7, Padres 6CINCINNATI — Ryan Ludwick drove in

four runs with a homer and a single, andBrandon Phillips hit a tiebreaking soloshot in the seventh inning that got theCincinnati Reds back to winning with a 7-6 victory over the San Diego Padres.

Corey Hart each hit a three-run homerand the Milwaukee Brewers pounded the

“He’s a veteran. He’s been throughsome wars before,” said Rangers

general manager JonDaniels, whose teamhas won two straightAL pennants but noWorld Series.

The fadedP h i l a d e l p h i aPhillies, last in theNL East and theirrun five straight divi-sion titles all butover, sent Victorinoto the Los AngelesDodgers for right-handers Josh Lind-

blom and Ethan Martin and cash.They also shipped Pence to SanFrancisco for outfielder Nate Schier-holtz, catching prospect TommyJoseph and right-hander Seth Rosin.

Cincinnati received Broxton fromKansas City, also a cellar dweller.

“When you’re in last place, you cantry any damn thing,” Phillies man-ager Charlie Manuel said. “You don’thave nothing to lose.”

The deals capped a busy two-weekperiod that also saw Ichiro Suzuki,Hanley Ramirez, Anibal Sanchezand Francisco Liriano change teamsas general managers assessedwhether they had a chance to makethis year’s expanded 10-team play-offs or whether to focus on rebuild-ing for 2013.

After winning a franchise-record102 games last year, the Philliesnever recovered from RyanHoward’s stumble on the last out oflast year’s NL division seriesagainst St. Louis. Howard, the 2006NL MVP, tore an Achilles tendonand didn’t come off the disabled listuntil July 6. All-Star second base-man Chase Utley missed the first 76games because of a chronic problem in both knees.

Pence is batting .271 with 17homers and 59 RBIs this season. Hefills a major need for the Giants, giving them a right-handed hitterwith power.

“I don’t think anyone really antici-pated the season that’s gone on,”Pence said in Washington after thetrade. “It was the perfect storm of in-juries and things didn’t go right forus, so that’s the way the business ofthe game is and you have to under-stand that. Everything is understood.The Phillies are going in a differentdirection. We had a great run at it.Now I’m going a different way.”

Victorino, nicknamed the Flyin’Hawaiian, is batting .261 with ninehomers, 40 RBIs and 24 steals. Hehelped the Phillies win five straightNL East titles and the 2008 World Series championship.

“Mahalo to the (at)Phillies and theAMAZING fans in Philly for a greatrun. A lot of unforgettable memoriesin this city. I’ll miss you guys!” Vic-torino wrote on Twitter.

NEW YORK — SnoopDogg wants you to know thathe’s tired of hip-hop, is BobMarley reincarnated and isembracing reggae instead ofthe culture of guns he oncerapped about.

Also, he’s got a new name:Snoop Lion.

The artist said at a newsconference Monday in NewYork he was “born again”during a visit to Jamaica inFebruary and is ready tomake music his “kids andgrandparents can listen to.”

The former gangster rap-per is releasing a reggaealbum called “Reincarnated”in the fall. He said that inJamaica, he connected withBob Marley’s spirit and is now“Bob Marley reincarnated.”

Bob Marley’s son Rohanattended the conferenceand gave Snoop his blessing.

“I feel like I’ve always beenRastafarian,” Snoop said.While there, he said, he vis-ited a temple, was renamedSnoop Lion and was alsogiven the Ethiopian nameBerhane, meaning “light ofthe world.”

Snoop didn’t explain whyhe was switching from“Dogg” to “Lion,” but it’slikely a reference to theLion of Judah, a religioussymbol popular in Rastafar-ian and Ethiopian culture.

Later, he played five songsfor a small crowd, includingone called “No Guns Al-lowed.” It features hisdaughter and includes thelyrics, “No guns allowed inhere tonight, we’re going tohave a free for all, no fights.”

“It’s so tragic that peopleare doing stupid things withguns,” he said.

Snoop, best known for hitslike “Gin and Juice” and“Drop It Like It’s Hot,” is anavid supporter of marijuanarights.

He said that in Jamaicahe grew closer to his wife, whosaw his transition. He addedthat he’s excited to performmusic that his family andchildren can listen to.

“As a 40-year-old man ...I’ve got to give them some-thing,” he said. “That’s whatyou do when you’re wise.”

A coffee table book aboutSnoop’s rebirth is also in theworks.

Cat behaviorist Jackson Galaxy is pictured in May working with Oliver the cat during production of Animal Planet’s“My Cat From Hell” in New York. On his TV show, Galaxy helps cats and cat owners solve behavior problems,human and feline.

Jackson Galaxy helps cats connect with ownersAssociated Press

— LOS ANGELES

Many cats are tail talkers.If those tails start totwitch and wag, watch

out for fangs and claws, warnscat behaviorist Jackson Galaxy.

If you try to pet a cat when itstail is wagging and get bitten,“You had it coming,” saysGalaxy, who helps solve behav-ior problems, both human andfeline, on his Animal Planet TVshow, “My Cat From Hell.”

When a cat’s angry enough towag its tail or the fur on its backstands up, its ears flatten andeyes dilate, the owner needs tofigure out what’s wrong, he says.

Galaxy figures cats and own-ers equally share the blame forrelationships gone wrong, butwhen it comes to changing be-havior, cats are the easier stu-dents — by a wide margin.

His house call kit is a guitarcase loaded with cat toys andtreats. But there’s no magicwand in the box, he says. It takestime and hard work. “You getwhat you give.”

Galaxy, 46, has an usual job —and he’s an unusual guy. He’s 6-

foot-5, bald, wears specs and earhoops, sports a long goatee,prefers bowling shirts andsneakers, has tattoo “sleeves”and has started tats on his legsso that he’ll one day have a “full suit.”

He plays the guitar, has a de-gree in acting and has been ad-dicted to drugs, alcohol andfood. He’s also written an auto-biography, “Cat Daddy.”

Galaxy was working at an ani-mal shelter in Colorado morethan 15 years ago when a manwalked in with a cat in a card-board box. The cat, namedBenny, had been hit by a car andwas “unbondable,” the man said.Benny and Galaxy spent thenext 13 years bonding and devel-oping what Galaxy calls “catmojo.”

He had a practice with a holis-tic vet before moving to Los An-geles in 2007 and opening aprivate consulting firm. He wasat a pet adoption fair when hemet the friend of a friend whointroduced him to reality TVproducer Adam Greener (“Ex-treme Makeover: Weight LossEdition”). “My Cat From Hell”began airing in spring 2011. In

each episode, viewers witnessowners struggling to find domes-tic harmony with their cats.

Cats have an attention span ofabout 3 seconds, so Galaxy be-lieves punishment is pointless.“Count to 10, clean up, forgiveand move on,” he says. Air in amotion-detecting can is great fordisciplining cats the instant theymisbehave, he says.

Despite cats’ short attentionspan, there is nothing wrongwith their memory, he says. Mostcats can be taught almost any-thing, he says, but he doesn’t be-lieve a cat should be taught towalk on a leash or jump throughhoops just to satisfy an owner.Most cats will feel the same way,he says, but some will enjoy thelessons and the activities.

Galaxy’s tattoos include 15cats (Benny will be on his leg)but he also has three real ones,along with a blind dog.

Does he think cats will oneday become doglike and gatherin parks, take obedience classes,share play dates and go surfing?

“I totally hope not,” he says. “Ilove cats for who they are. Iwant everyone to embrace whatI call the raw cat.”

As the midsummersun relentlesslybeat down on 76

students in the Citrus HighSchool Hurricanes march-ing band, a storm was

growing, one beat at atime.

CHS Director of BandsBrian York has beenworking with his bandstudents each Tuesdayevening during the sum-mer to hone their skills.With school right aroundthe corner, the band is

practicing every day fortwo weeks until schoolstarts Aug. 8.

The band is learning itsnew competition routine,“The Storm,” a 7 1/2-minute routine, York said.

“It’s about the buildingof the storm, the storm it-self and then when it

breaks and the sun comesout at the end,” he said.

The routine will be per-formed at halftime of theHurricanes’ footballgames and during bandcompetitions on Satur-days through the Fall.

Getting 76 young peopleto work in unison can be a

challenge, but York saidhis band is working hardto master the show. Hesaid there are many otherbenefits to being a bandmember.

“They have a blast.They work really hard.And at the end of the day,they’re here with their

friends, hanging out dur-ing the summer,” he said.“And once they get intothe school year, they al-ready know 75 other peo-ple and they have theirown little gang in the hall-way.”

CHS marching band members spent the summer honing their musical chops in hopes of

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — Itsounds like something thatwould pop up on a mathtest: A teacher-trainingprogram gets $19 million instate aid. Over six years, itproduces only 70 teachers.How much has the statespent for each teacher sofar?

LOS ANGELES — After97 years, Our Lady of Lourdes School was closing— enrollment had dwindledto 35 children last year atwhat was once one of theWest Coast’s biggestCatholic schools.

But with a new principalwho knocked on doors, of-fered XBox video game con-soles to kids who brought ina friend, and recruited fam-ilies who lost their bid in acharter school lottery, theEast Los Angeles schoolstayed open — 132 pupilsare registered for this fall.

Call it educational evan-gelism. Roman Catholicschools are seeing years ofmarketing efforts starting topay off in spite of toughcompetition from charterschools and the lingering ef-fects of a devastatingrecession.

After seeing years of re-

lentless enrollment decline,several key dioceses acrossthe nation saw studentstrickle back to their schoolsover the past year. They sayit comes down to a culturalchange in Catholic educa-

tion that has taken a whileto implement but is finallytaking root.

“If we want to continue tosurvive, we have to thinklike a business,” saidDomenico Pilato, who

heads the Archdiocese ofLos Angeles’ school market-ing project.

Nationally, Catholicschool enrollment is stillwaning — closing 167schools and losing 34,000pupils over the past year.But educators say the num-ber of schools with waitinglists increased by 171, and34 schools opened.

The archdioceses of LosAngeles, Boston andChicago, which have all em-ployed aggressive market-ing programs, have seenstudent upticks, offeringhope the exodus can beturned around on a largerscale.

In Los Angeles, where en-rollment had plummeted bymore than 2,000 students ayear for the past decade, el-ementary enrollment in-creased by 300 students lastyear. In Boston, the decline

The marching band iscomprised of several maincomponents; the brass andwood winds, grounded andmarching percussion andthe color guard that per-forms with flags, rifles andother props, York said.

One of the two field gen-erals that lead the bandmembers during their rou-tine is drum major DeannaMielke, 17, a senior.

She said the role she hasis one she takes seriously.

“It’s a very big responsi-bility,” she said. “We basi-cally are the face of theband.”

Mielke is a co-drummajor with Jill Isenberg.

The teen said she has as-pired to be the drum major

for several years.“When I was at Inverness

Middle School in 8th grade,I saw the high school drummajor here at Citrus leadingthe band and I said, ‘I reallywant to do that.’ I was veryinspired.”

The musician has per-formed in a variety of ca-pacities in the concert andmarching bands at theschool, including playingthe clarinet as well as beinga member of the colorguard. She said the drummajor is a critical part of theband, both on and off thefield.

“You need a drum major,”she said. “You look to adrum major for guidance,for entrances to the musicand tempo on the field. Offthe field, we try to be afriend for anyone whoneeds one.”

Robert Bessler, 14, is a

freshman and started hisfirst week of band campplaying the baritone.

“It’s tough,” he said. “Butthat’s only because they’retrying to get us ready for thenext time we’re playing atthe games, the shows, every-thing,” he said. “It’s a lot offun.”

The former InvernessMiddle School band mem-ber said he has had to makesome adjustments frommiddle to high school.

“The hardest part for mehas been keeping my hornup in position and the dress-ing,” he said. “That meansstaying in line with every-body else.”

Mielke said she derives adeep personal satisfactionfrom leading her peers ontheir field when all eyes areon the band.

“I really, truly do enjoy it,”she said. “At the end of the

day, coming off the fieldafter a show, knowing I didwell and my band did well is

really a great feeling.” Chronicle staff writer

working in poor communi-ties and help them get col-lege degrees in education.Ideally, the graduates willteach in those same com-munities and, because oftheir roots there, will windup staying for years tocome.

That’s important, expertssay, because there’s signifi-cant turnover among teach-ers in the state’s poorestschools.

People in Grow YourOwn apply for whateverfederal aid, scholarshipsand grants are available topay for college. Then theprogram pays the remain-ing expenses. In addition,the program offers tutoring,connects students so theycan help one another andprovides counseling. Grad-uates who teach for fiveyears in a low-incomeschool have their GYOloans forgiven.

Because most of thesewould-be teachers alreadyhave jobs or families orboth, they generally takeonly one or two classes asemester. That means itcan take them much

longer to finish, one rea-son a program that startedgearing up in 2006 stillhasn’t hit triple digits ingraduates.

Anne Hallett, Grow YourOwn’s director, said criticsshouldn’t be surprisedthere haven’t been moregraduates in an age wheneven traditional, full-timestudents often take fiveyears to finish college. Shesaid the program has about300 candidates in thepipeline.

Romanetha Looper isone of the program’s suc-cess stories.

She signed up at age 38,with a husband and twochildren. With the pro-gram’s staff, volunteers andstudents to help, she gradu-ated with a 3.8 GPA and gota job. She now teaches mid-dle school science onChicago’s west side andgives the students an exam-ple of someone from arough neighborhood suc-ceeding.

“I see the change that Imake, and the kids see thatI care and I love them,”Looper said. “I’m here tostay.”

Grow Your Own works bysetting up local partner-ships consisting of a uni-versity, a school district and

a community group. At themoment, there are eightsuch partnerships inChicago and seven scat-tered across the rest of thestate.

Peoria used to have aGrow Your Own partner-ship, but it ended becausethe state consistentlyfailed to provide fundingon schedule, said LaraineBryson, president of theTri-County Urban League.Bryson said she consid-ered the program a suc-cess and thinks it’s stillneeded, in part becausemany Peoria students areminorities but their teach-ers are overwhelminglywhite.

“That puts a student in asituation where they can gofor years in school andnever see someone wholooks like them as ateacher,” Bryson said.“That sends a message.”

By one measure, Illinoisschools have the nation’sthird-largest gap betweenthe racial backgrounds ofteachers and students.Forty-six percent of stu-dents are non-white, butonly 11 percent of teachersare people of color, ac-cording to a report by theCenter for AmericanProgress.

TRAININGContinued from Page C2

slowed to a 20-year low of 1 percent. Chicago, the na-tion’s largest diocesanschool system, saw city ele-mentary enrollment in-crease by 8 percent.

Smaller dioceses also re-port gains. In Lafayette,Ind., where two schoolsclosed in 2009, 300 new kidsenrolled and plans are afootto open an elementaryschool. Bridgeport, Conn.,reported a 5 percent enroll-ment jump.

“Catholic schools are be-ginning to market and pro-mote themselves,” saidShane Martin, dean of edu-cation at Loyola MarymountUniversity. “It’s really aboutgetting the word out aboutthis option. People don’tknow much about it.”

Schools realized the needto start marketing more ag-gressively some years ago,but it’s been a slow shift in aconservative environmentthat historically never hadto advertise itself.

In Los Angeles, some highschool principals reluctantto take on marketing dutieshad to be replaced, saidMonsignor Sabato Pilato,

superintendent of highschools, who is Domenico’sbrother.

“Something different hadto happen,” the monsignorsaid.

Margaret Dames, superin-tendent of Bridgeport’sCatholic schools, said shewent through a personallearning curve. “I wasn’tused to marketing,” shesaid. “We’re getting better atit.”

It’s a far cry from the1960s when Catholic fami-lies flocked to parochialschools staffed mainly bypriests and nuns, whoearned a pittance andwere renowned for wield-ing rulers to rap knucklesand check skirt length.Catholic school enrollmenthit a high of 5.2 million in13,000 schools during thatdecade.

These days, enrollmentstands around 2 million in6,800 schools that cost moreto run. With religious voca-tions attracting few en-trants, lay teachers staff 97percent of classrooms andschools must cope with pay-roll, pensions and health insurance.

In more recent years,charter schools, which areautonomous publiclyfunded schools, have also si-

phoned off students inurban neighborhoodswhere Catholic schoolsonce catered to Europeanimmigrants and then carvedout a niche with minoritypupils. Some charters evenadopt uniforms resemblingparochial plaids.

The rise of charters, inturn, has caused publicschools to get more compet-itive with specialties such asmagnets, small learningcommunities, performingarts and language programs.

“Charter schools have af-fected traditional publicschools and private schools,particularly Catholicschools,” Martin said.“There’s more competitionand choice than ever be-fore.”

Sister Mary Paul Mc-Caughey, schools superin-tendent of the Archdioceseof Chicago, pointed to char-ters’ main advantage overher schools: “The attractionis clearly the freebie.”

Catholic school tuitionaverages $3,700 for ele-mentary grades, and $8,100for secondary, althoughmany students receive fi-nancial aid and fees onlypay for about 75 percent ofcosts. The tab is roundedout by the church and donations.

Extreme Habitats

Living on the Edge Have you ever marveled at the different life all around us? It turns out that there is life in a lot more places than we ever imagined. In the last few years, scientists have found life in boiling acid, on volcanic vents, inside nuclear reactors, deep under the ice, high above the clouds and way below the bottom of the sea. Creatures living in these extreme habitats are called extremophiles (x-TREME-uh-files). “Philes” is from the Greek word for love. Extremophiles are lovers of extremes. We now know that life exists almost everywhere on Earth, except for in the deepest molten, or hot liquid metal, outer core of the planet. To learn more about life on the edge, The Mini Page talked with an expert from the National Science Foundation.

Extremophiles

Until recently, people thought all life needed certain things to survive. These include:

radiation

acid levels

point, from the sun. But many creatures can survive without all of these expected ingredients. They live in extreme conditions. These creatures might think the way we live is extreme. For example, oxygen would kill some of them. We oxygen-breathers are the extremophiles in their worlds.

Changing our world

These creatures may “breathe in” carbon dioxide or even metals such as uranium or arsenic. Many breathe out oxygen, much like we breathe out carbon dioxide. Experts believe creatures such as these helped create our oxygen-rich world billions of years ago. By breathing out oxygen, they made it possible for oxygen-breathing plants, animals and humans to exist. Most extremophiles are tiny creatures called microbes (MY-krobes). A microbe is too small to see without a microscope. Millions of tons of microbes live beneath the Earth’s surface. Experts believe the total weight of the microbes living under the surface is more than the total of all other life on Earth.

Heat LoversVolcanoes under the sea

Volcanoes force magma, or hot, molten rock, up to the Earth’s crust. Beneath the bottom of the sea, magma superheats ocean water that has seeped down through cracks

where this superhot water flows out are called hydrothermal vents (hi-druh-THUR-muhl). Tiny microbes, as well as worms, shellfish such as crabs and clams, and octopuses have all adapted, or changed, to live in this extreme environment. Many can live inside water hot enough to boil.

survive the extreme conditions with the help of microbes that live

in the shellfish’s bodies. These microbes change chemicals in the environment into sugars the shellfish can eat.

Fit for the environment

The crabs and clams living near the surface of the sea would not survive in the extreme environment near hydrothermal vents. The reverse is true, too. Creatures living near hydrothermal vents would die if they were brought to the surface. If we ate the crabs and clams living near the hydrothermal vents, we would be poisoned because their makeup is so different. There are even microbes that live beneath these hydrothermal vents, in even more extreme heat and pressure.

The earliest life on Earth

Experts believe that some extremophiles may be the oldest forms of life on Earth. Hydrothermal vents, hot geysers and rocks below the surface of the planet resemble conditions on Earth about 3.8 billion years ago.

When water heated by undersea volcanoes erupts out of the rocks, it joins with minerals in the rocks and ocean water. The eruption of the water and minerals looks like a plume of dark smoke. Hydrothermal vents are also called “black smokers.”

Yellowstone

Microbes make their homes deep inside rocks in Yellowstone National Park. The environment within these rocks is so acidic that it could dissolve nails. Some of these microbes “eat,” or get energy from, metals found in water in the rocks. Extremophiles have also been found in geysers and hot springs throughout Yellowstone. These microbes live in boiling hot water. Some of this water is so acidic that it could dissolve clothing. Some water is the opposite of acidic, but still harsh.

Up in the air

in the stratosphere, there are living microbes. These microbes must be able to withstand extreme ultraviolet radiation and cold, and little or no water and food. Millions of microbes live in the clouds. Not only must they live in extreme conditions, but they must also be able to survive when their environment changes all the time. Temperatures and pressure change rapidly. Microbes may live in the clouds, then fall to Earth and have to survive there too.

Under the ice

Scientists believe microbes are living below the ice sheet in Antarctica. They have found microbes that probably came from a lake about 12,000 feet below the ice. Scientists have also found microbes that had been frozen for 32,000 years in an Alaskan tunnel. When the ice melted, the bacteria essentially woke up.

Learning more

NASA scientists are excited to learn more about extremophiles. Extreme conditions on Earth could resemble normal conditions on other planets or their moons. The ways organisms handle extremes may teach us how to solve problems. For example, scientists

extremophiles from Yellowstone. Extremophiles could teach us about battling pollution and disease.

Radiation lovers

Microbes can live inside the water cores of nuclear reactors. They have even been found at the sites of nuclear disasters such as Chernobyl

forms such as fungi, or mold, have also been found inside the radioactive Chernobyl reactor. Some fungi inside Chernobyl actually “eat” radioactivity. Microbes have been found deep inside radioactive rocks in gold mines about two miles underground. The radioactivity prepares mineral food so the microbes can “eat” it. These microbes live slow, uneventful lives. They don’t waste a lot of energy. Their cells may divide and reproduce as little as once every 300 years. In comparison, common microbes on the Earth’s surface may reproduce every 20 minutes. Because they use so little energy, microbes in these radioactive rocks may live for millions of years.

Barbra Streisand said, “I arrived in Hollywoodwithout having my nose fixed, my teeth capped ormy name changed. That is very gratifying to me.”

Declarer might wish a low card were changed toa much higher one. Can you imagine wishing ahigh card were changed into a lower one? Intoday’s deal, how should South plan the play in sixspades after ruffing West’s club-king lead? Wouldit make a difference if the spade jack were thethree?

North’s two-club rebid was fourth-suit game-forcing. South’s two-spade continuation showed atleast 5-6 in spades and diamonds. (If South hadbeen only 5-5, he would have opened one spade,not one diamond.) After North indicated spadesupport, four clubs and four hearts were control-bids (cue-bids) showing first-round controls inthose suits and interest in a slam.

There is a temptation to play a spade todummy’s king, then to finesse the jack. Here,though, when it loses, declarer needs the heart fi-nesse. When that fails also, the contract is down.

It is true that if East has queen-fourth of spadesand no heart king, this line works well. But when-ever spades are 3-2 (which is much more likely),the contract is laydown without any finessing.Change the spade jack to the three. Now Southdraws two rounds of trumps, then plays on dia-monds, discarding all of dummy’s heart losers. Hetakes five spades, one heart, five diamonds (one isruffed by West) and a late heart ruff on the board.

Dear Annie: My parentsand siblings often com-plain that they can’t lose

weight. However, theydouse their food in saltand sauces, drink alco-hol before bed, andhave no qualms aboutpulling out the potatochips or chocolatecandy. I used to be likethem, but I’ve lost agreat deal of weightand feel fantastic.

When my familycomplains about theirweight, I suggest thatthey accompany me onmy walks or eat thesame foods I eat, butthey decline. They tease mewhen I measure out portion sizesor choose healthier options formy meals. They congratulate mewhen they notice my continuingweight loss, but then they urgeme to “slow down.” What doesthis mean? Are they jealous of mysuccess?

Annie, I can’t stand to watchthem put unhealthy things intotheir mouths anymore. What do Ido? — Healthier and Happier

Dear Healthier: Nothing. Youhave discovered that losingweight is important for yourhealth, but you didn’t do it be-cause someone told you to. Yourrelatives must be self-motivated.The most you can do is set a goodexample by modeling the type ofbehavior that will help them.When they are ready, they willtake the next step. It’s possiblethey are jealous, or they may begenuinely concerned that youhave some type of eating disor-der. But if your diet is healthy

and well-balanced, you shouldcontinue to focus on your owngood habits and do your best not

to lecture them ontheirs. If eatingaround them is too dif-ficult, take your mealselsewhere.

Dear Annie:Throughout my life,whenever I’ve been ina mixed group of menand women, the menfrequently talk overthe women or inter-rupt them before theyare finished. Now thatwe are over 60, theproblem is worse, asmany of our male

friends are hard of hearing. Doyou have any suggestions abouthow to get a word in edgewise orfinish a sentence tactfully? — Pat

Dear Pat: We hate to say it, butsome men are simply dismissiveof women’s conversation. If youare close friends, you shouldmention it, asking them to bemore considerate and remindingthem when they forget. Other-wise, there’s not much you can doother than talk over them, ignorethem or direct your conversationto a more amenable listener.

Dear Annie: Your response to“At a Loss,” the grandmother whowas afraid of losing her grandson,missed the point. You said tocheck grandparents rights in herstate, but that her best bet is toget back into her daughter-in-law’s good graces. I think that isunrealistic.

As a trial lawyer and grandfa-ther, I would have advised her tocall a family lawyer. They alsoshould be advised to document

everything they have done, andcontinue to do, for their grand-child, as well as every occasionon which they are denied visita-tion. They need to understandthat the grandson has the right tosee loving grandparents, as well.

One consultation with thelawyer would suffice to tell themwhat their rights are. —Louisville, Ky.

Dear Louisville: True, but notso simple. In fact, recently, courtsin several states have ruled thatstatutes providing for grandpar-ent visitation violate either fed-eral or local state constitutions.Plus, there are multiple require-ments that must be met beforevisitation is granted, and if theparents are still married and nei-ther wants the grandparents tosee the child, visitation istremendously difficult.

We appreciate your encourage-ment for “At a Loss” to seek legalredress, and we hope it helps.But we still believe her bestchance is to reconcile with herdaughter-in-law.

MALE SHEPHERD MIX Are you looking for your new best friend? Little Bear is an awesome companion. He’s a

2-year-old shepherd mix whose owner gave him

up due to housing issues.He learns quickly, knows some basic commands

and is very laid-back and well mannered in the

house, preferring to rest on the floor wherever his human is. While he gets

along well with other dogs on walks and on public

outings, he would do best in a home without other

dogs or cats. He is heart-worm negative and has already been microchip-ped. His adoption fee of $60 includes vaccina-

tions, neutering, free obe-dience class and a month

of free pet insurance. Meet him to see if he’sthe perfect dog for you.

C10 WEDNESDAY,AUGUST 1, 2012 CLASSIFIEDS CITRUS COUNTY (FL) CHRONICLE

797-0801 WCRNPUBLIC NOTICE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER

Recent Tests Indicated Coliform Bacteria in the Citrus Springs andPine Ridge Water System

Recent water test results indicated that the Citrus Springs/Pine Ridge water system vi-olated a drinking water standard. Although this incident was not an emergency, as our customers, you have a right to know what happened and what was done to correct the situation.

The Citrus County Utilities Division routinely monitors County owned and operated drinking water systems for contaminants, including the Citrus Springs/Pine Ridge system.In accordance with our permit requirements, fifteen routine distribution sam-ples were taken for the month of June, 2012 to test for the presence of coliform bac-teria. Two out of the fifteenroutine samples showed the presence of total coliformbacteria. The standard is that no more than one sample per month or 5 percent of the total samples may fail.

What should I do?

“ You Do Not Need To Do Anything. You do not need to boil your water or take other corrective actions. However, if you have specific health concerns, consult your doctor.

If you have a severely compromised immune system, have an infant, are pregnant,or are elderly, you may be at increased risk and should seek advice from your health care providers about drinking this water. General guidelines on ways to lessen the risk of infection by microbes are available from EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.

What does this mean?

This is not an emergency. If it had been you would have been notified within 24 hours. Total coliform bacteria are generally not harmful themselves. *Coliforms arebacteria which are naturally present in the environment and are used as an indica-tor that other,potentially-harmful, bacteria may be present. Coliforms were found in more samples than allowed and this was a warning of potential problems.*

Usually, coliforms are a sign that there could be a problem with the system’s treatment or distribution system (pipes). Whenever we detect coliform bacteria in any sample, we do follow-up testing to see if other bacteria of greater concern,such as fecal coliform or E. coli, are present. We did not find any of these bacteria in our subsequent testing.

What is being done?

As required by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA’s) Ground Water Rule, repeat samples were collected at the detected sites, plus one sample upstream and one sample downstream of the detected site. These samples were collected on June 18th, 2012. There were no traces of total coliform bacteriain any of the re-peated samples. Since then, we have performed routine sampling for the month of June on all seven drinking water wells plus fifteen samples throughout the distribution system. Coliform bacteria were not detected in any of the samples.

Citrus County Department of Water Resources has conducted a thorough investiga-tion to determine the source of the contamination and believe that no actual prob-lem existed within the water distribution system. Our investigation indicates that the test samples were either contaminated in the sampling process or while being trans-ported to the laboratory, or during the analysis of the actual sample within the labo-ratory. Thus, there was never any real threat to your drinking water.

In this process a site visit and inspection of the contract laboratory for the County was conducted by the Citrus County Utilities Compliance Manager along with a reviewand minor procedure changes on how Utility Operators perform routine sampling to insure that the proper sampling protocols are followed fully and completely 100% of the timeto avoid future false positive sampling occurrences.

For more information, please contact Gary Loggins, Citrus County Utilities Operations Manager, Department of Water Resources at 352-527-7650 or write to Citrus County Utilities at 1300 S Lecanto Highway, Lecanto FL, 34461.
