GCCFV board OKs land purchase SUN GRAPHIC Bi CHRISTINA MORGAN On Wednesday, Gulf Coast Community Foundation of Venice's board approved buying the 146 acres off of Laurel Road shown here outlined in red, to build 500 or more homes. The yellow- shaded areas denote land within the city, and the cream-colored areas are in the county. GCCFV will decide later if it wants to annex into the city. The foundation's board pushes forward with buying 146 acres on Laurel Road for $16.1 million to create workforce housing development. BY JJ. ANDREWS ASSISTANT EDITOR Dedicated workforce housing in Venice came one step closer to reality Wed- nesday as the board of Gulf Coast Community Founda- tion of Venice approved putr- chasing 146 acres of undevel- oped land on Laurel Road. The board members di- rected the board of Gulf Coast Strategic Investments to pur- chase the land at a cost of $16.1 million. The goal is to turn the patch of land east of Interstate 75 into workforce housing that could have 500 or more homes. GCCFX has until lune 30 to close the deal. And then the real planning will begin, as GCCFV ventures into dithe role of residential developer for the first time in the charitable organization's history. GCCFV also will have to- decide whether it wants the land to stay under Sarasota County government control or be annexed into Venice City Limits. The property, bor- ders the eastern city bound- ary, adjacent to the Eastside Wastewater Treauutment Plant and is on die south side of Laurel Road. GCCFV President and CEO Teri Hansen said a decision has not been reached. "We have had a generous response from both the coun- ty and the city," Hansen said. HOUSING PRICES * According to Sarasota County, the median price of homes has more than dou- bled in five years, going from S 117,000 in 2000 to $236,500 as of January 2005. * Salaries have lagged drasti- cally behind real estate, increasing by only 17 percent during that period. The medi- an salary in Sarasota County was $47,700 in 2000 and has only increased to $54,300. - Note: In statistics, the "medi- an" is not the average of a sequence of numbers. Instead, it is the middle num- ber in the sequence. "Both staffs have been very helpful. They see (workforce housing) as a critical issue.We haven't made any (annexa- tion) decisions yet. We'll focus on that once we finish the due diligence." Police, fire and water If the goal is to maintain affordability, City Manager 1 Tarty Black believes GCCFV's best bet is annexation into Venice because its monthly sewage and drinking water rates are lower than what the county charges, he said.

Back in April, council members and charter officers huddled up for two days of meetings to determine 2005 policy and action directions in order to create the city they, want 15 years from now. Creating height limits, pur- suing a city-owned marina, developing airport property and getting the employee unions to agree to three-year contracts were high on their list. Venice City Council will vote at its July 12 meeting on whether to adopt these policy directions, along with many others, when they're present- ed the strategic plan.

Hi~I FRIDAY, JUNE 24, 2005 2A VFNICF GONDOI IFR S IN To the rescue of an injured sea turtle BYJEAN WARNER GUEST WRITER Tourist season may be over, but now it is turtle nesting season and the lights are still turned on at the beach, caus- ing sea turtles to get lost. This is what happened Tuesday, June 14. Several friends shelling on Venice Beach early in the morning noticed turtle tracks going toward a condo and went to investigate because they did not see any tracks returning to the water. Nancy Lambert, owner of Venice Pet Sitters, Elaine Wheeler and Norma Pennington discov- ered a female sea turtle had crawled up and over a small cement wall surrounding a pool. She was helpless and injured. All three ladies are volun- teers for Mote Marine and routinely do turtle patrols. Enter Rick Taylor, recently transferred from the Cape Coral office of Century 21 Sunbelt, who found a place to call home on Venice island and fortunately was jogging by. , Jim Grimes, marine biolo- gist from Mote who special- izes in stranded turtles, was also contacted to assist. It was determined that the turtle was not badly injured and a return to saltwater would heal her wounds. She weighed about 250 pounds and it took six people to load her on a truck and take her to Caspersen Beach, where she happily returned to the water. Because of the beach re- nourishment, the eggs laid on Venice Beach are being transferred to Caspersen Beach. In a few days, this turtle will return to Venice Beach to try to lay her eggs again. Please turn out the lights. There are some times when a lady needs a little privacy. The sea turtle's tracks.

BYJACKGURNEY PELICAN PRESS A fledgling program to pro- duce clean electric power for Southwest Florida utility cus- tomers will be on display at the former Sarasota County landfill on Bee Ridge Road, if contractual details can be worked out with the Florida Power and Light Company. On May 10, the county commission' tentatively agreed to let the power com- pany setup an array of photo- voltaic panels on less than an acre of the reclaimed landfill site at. the east end of Bee Ridge Road, which was recently named for former Parks Director Walt Rothen- bach. "There is no finalized con- tract yet and we haven't decided how big the array will be," said Gary Patton, the county's energy coordinator. "A-100 kilowatt array of pan- els would occupy about 16,000 square feet. We may allow up to a 200-kilowatt installation." The panels are used to capture solar energy and con- vert it into electrical power. It takes about 4 kilowatts of power to operate a 2,000- square-foot home, so a 200- kilowatt array of panels could provide enough power for about 50 homes. "This certainly could be expandable in the future," Patton said. "There are 1- megawatt (1,000-kilowatts) arrays in states out west. We could divert the electricity to PHOTO COURTESY OF THE PELICAN PRESS Students and staff at Harlee Middle School in Palmetto stand with the small photovoltaic panel installation they use in their studies. Panels similar to these could be installed at the county landfill. one of our water treatment plants, or to the animal shel- ter next to Rothenbach Park." Bright idea While the deal with FP&L is still conceptual, it calls for the company to install, main- tain and provide insurance on the panels in the event of damage. The equipment is warranted for 25 years and ownership could be trans- ferred to the county after 10 years. The photovoltaic panels are part of an FP&L program known as "Sunshine Energy" that will reduce carbon diox- ide emissions through the use of clean power sources. It will continue to expand if enough FP&L customers subscribe to the program. "We have agreed to install solar panels that produce 150-kilowatts for every 10,000 customers who subscribe," said FP&L spokesman Russ Chamberlain. "The electricity gathered by these panels will go into our regular grid and be distributed throughout the system." Rothenbach Park would be FP&L's largest installation of photovoltaic panels in South- west Florida to date, but not the first. One of the other host sites is, Sara Scott Harlee Middle School in Palmetto, which agreed to a small array for an educational display. Hot air The company is encourag- ing customers to sign up for its clean-energy program through circulars that prom- ise each one can reduce car- bon dioxide emissions from power plants by 8,000 pounds each year, which is about what a car driven 9,000 miles produces. "So far, about 50,000 peo- ple have signed up," FP&L spokesperson Pat Davis said. "We are looking for other sites. Not every one of them has to be large. We can put a 50-kilowatt array on the roof of a large building, but they have to withstand 150-mile- per-hour winds." The clean energy program is part of a nationwide effort that utilizes other sources. "It takes 15 to 17 miles per hour of wind to sustain wind- mills, which we don't have in Florida," Chamberlain said. "Curiously, we are not- the best state for solar energy. Arizona and New Mexico rate higher." PUBLIC MEETINGS City of Venice meeting times, dates and locations are subject to change.

Staff is working on a new pro- posal for a height limit that would extend through his- toric downtown Venice; a spe- cific height has not been sug- gested. It will come up for a vote later this year. Special exceptions - This also was accomplished June 14, with the adoption of the "conditional use" as the new method for approving any height exceptions. City council now has the final de-' cision on additional heights instead of the planning com- mission. Environmental compli-" ance Following through on settlement agreements with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and a pending settlement with the U.S. District Attor- ney's Office out of Tampa, all in relation to wastewater plant violations. This involves penalty payments and paying to make facility improve- ments. City-owned marina- By the end of the, year, have a plan on the size, scope and cost of building a city-owned marina on Venice Municipal Airport property along the southern portion of the is- land. Airport Business Park - Directly connected to the marina, create a plan for a business park to support air- port operations. This plan also would include relocating aviation operations further away from residential devel- opments along Airport Ave- nue and closer to the runways and Intracoastal Waterway areas. ; *TramontoVista Park-A concept plan has already been approved. Later this year, state approval is expect- ed and that is when council mttst decide whether to pave over the former wastewater, treatment plant for 250 park- ing spots and three large pic- nic shelters the size of the old sewage treatment tanks. The park is along South Harbor Drive and next to the beach. High priority, Seaboard Avenue rede- velopment- Develop a joint land-use plan between the city and county for redevel- opment of the U.S. 41 Bypass and Seaboard Avenue area: City N manager MlarnyBlackwill meet with county staff in two weeks to work on the draft agreement.

Ideas included a 140-spot parking garage next to Althea's Restaurant. and making Tampa, Venice and Miami avenues. one-way streets. None of these sugges- tions or ideas has' resurfaced, ' but council wants a policy plan in place this year. Labor contracts - Council directed manage- ment to only agree to union contracts that are at least three years long. Currently, the police officers union has been Working under a con- tract that expired in October, and its members are review- ing the city's latest three-year offer. Fraternal Order of Police negotiators originally wanted only a two-year deal. Police Department audit - Being done right now, council directed manage- ment to conduct an audit of police department opera- tions that will evaluate every aspect of the organization, from staffing to filing paper- work.

Night to shine for Maize, Adrian and Maas Three are latest inductees into Venice Sports Hall of Fame. BY CLAUDE LEWIS SPORTS EDITOR There are no doubt dozens of folks out there deserving of being selected to the Venice Sports Hall of Fame. The list was shortened by three Thursday night, as Sheryl Maize, Ralph Adrian Sr. and the late Milt Maas were inducted into the "Hall" during a banquet at Bogey's Sports Pub and Restaurant. Each of the three touched the lives of many people and to this day still have a lasting impact on the community. I Following dinner and the ceremonies, the plaques of the three new inductees were unveiled on the "Wall of Fame" located at the entrance of Bogey's. This is the third class of inductees into the Venice Sports Hall of Fame. The inaugural banquet was in 2003 and- included Jack Dundas, Mark Guthrie, Jim Powell, DonnieYoung and the late Chuck Reiter. The class of 2004 saw Jerry. Biller, Dan and Freda Boone, Alvin Mitchell, Larry Sand- burg, Jack Voigt and the late Bob Welch. Following is a rundown on the three new inductees: Sheryl Maize Maize put Venice on the girls and women's golf map. She captured an individual state championship in her senior year at Venice High in 1986. She went on to star for the top college program in the nation the University of Miami. Maize went on to play on the LPGA tour for three years before a shoulder injury ended her competitive career in 1994. She moved on to coach college women at Memphis University, but she was forced to leave when ' her father became ill. "Family is first," Maize said Thursday evening. "I'm an only child. My boss at Memphis said 'go home and be a daughter.'" Maize also thanked her mother for attending all of her matches when she was a budding star. Maize is still a LPGA teach- ing pro an travels all over. She recently returned from Iceland. "I love teaching juniors," Sarah Maas (center)!accepts for her late husband, Milt, at the Venice Sports Hall oF Fame banquet. Presenting the award are Ann Ross and Brian Wheatley. The Big Chief Award presented annually to the top Venice High sports team during the school year went to the Lady Indian volleyball team.

I have a pinched nerve in my neck. Hating to forfeit, it looked as though the golf gods were going to save me and our parched state with some much needed rain. What? It's been raining a lot lately? You jest., Ask SWIFTMUD if we need the rain. The answer is always yes. So, it looked like I was in the clear all afternoon yes- terday, until about 3:30, when to my horror it just stopped. I frantically checked the Weather Channel. Plenty of unstable air and lots of moisture pouring in from the Gulf of Mexico. It's gonna start again any minute, I think. Wrong! The spigot just went dry. Sorry partner, we just can't get a break lately. Okay, now that my whin- ing is out of the way, we'll take a look at the Low Net/ Low Gross leaders, in' the men's flights. In the first flight, Mike Simpson has the low gross at 32. I think he liked the setup that day. The low net is. Chuck Paine at 29. Chuck will. always have a special place in my heart, he introduced me to my wife (the good one). The second flight low Gross is a tie between Pat Jaehne and Mike Lamond (I hear he's a hack) at 38. Low net is a 28 by John Jeffrey. The third flight low gross is Bob Smith at 37 and low net a tie between Scott Thinnes and Rich Owen at 31. Fourth flight low gross is Jim Anderson's 39 and low net is Pat Kelsey with a 26. The fifth flight low gross is Rich Whaley's 39 and Reid Warbington's 28 holds low net. Sixth flight low gross is Tim Saunders with 39 and low net is Jaime Detert's 31. Seventh flight's low net is Bob Waldron's 31 and low gross is Frank Kellywith a 40. See how I flipped it around there? Just checking to see if you're still paying attention. Eighth flight low gross is Jim Banks' 41 and low net is Harold Rowe's- 29. In the ninth flight, we have a tie for low gross at 43 between Dan Kelly and Bill Buckley and low net is Bill Horigan at 30.

Maize teaches in the sum- mers in Minnesota, the win- ters at the Ben Sutton School in Sun City and in between at Pinehurst, N.C. She is one who very much still remembers Venice as home. Maize, who was presented by Greg Hitt, thanked her old high school coach, Wanda Powell, and Mission V alley pro Phil Darbyshire for help- ing her career. "My mom nominated me," Maize said. "She told me. I just figured it probably wouldn't happen. I was real excited when I found out. It's an honor." The honor is all Venice's. Ralph Adrian Sr. Adrian Sr. has been in- volved in the Venice sports scene for five decades. He played sports at the old Venice-Nokomis High School. SLater, he became active in youth sports. Adrian is credit- ed with helping organize football for kids in the area. He was president of the Vikings organization when they first became affiliated with Pop Warner football. "The best part was seeing all the kids participating," Adrian. said. "I wanted every child to have the opportunity to play.", One of the thankless jobs at Pop Warner games is announcing. Adrian knew how much it meant to the kids and took pride in the job. He also announced Venice High games both junior varsity and varsity- for close to three decades. Adrian, who served in the U.S. Army in the early '50s, coached in the Venice Little League from the late '60s up to the mid '70s. Adrian, who was presented by son Bill Thursday night, has receivedVHS Booster and Service awards: "I'm a little shocked," Adrian admitted of being voted into the Venice Sports Hall of Fame. "It came out of the blue." Milt Maas Maas came to Venice as a retired Air Force pilot in 1972. He had served in Vietnam. Venice girls and women's sports is a much better place for it. The father of three daugh- ters, he wanted to make sure they had sporting outlets. Maas is credited with bringing organized softball to Venice. He was a co-founder of the Venice chapter of Miss Softball America. He was coach, umpire and board member for many moons. "There was nothing in or around Venice for girls," said Sarah Maas, who accepted the award for her husband, who passed away in 2002. "This, man deserves this. He devoted his life to kids' sports." Maas' three daughters - Virginia, Malinda and Gretchen played softball and volleyball. I "I was involved, too, but once my girls were out, I was able to step away," Sarah said. "Milt wasn't able ,to. He loved it too much." Maas went on to serve as assistant coach and score- keeper for Venice High vol- leyball for. a dozen years. They had a special Milt Maas Night in the fall of 2001. Maas' award was present- ed by Venice High.volleyball coach Brian Wheatley and Ann Ross. "He enjoyed young peo- ple," Sarah said. "He was one of the good guys." Ralph Adrian Sr. (right) was inducted into the Venice Sports Hall of Fame Thursday night at Bogey's. Here, he receives his plaque from son Bill.

I FRIDAY, JUNE 24,2005 VENICE GONDOLIER SUN SA Pythons 12s win Disney Tournament STAFF REPORT The Venice Pythons 12- year-olds beat some of the top teams in Florida and Georgia in capturing the 2005 AAU/ Disney International Tourna- ment played June 11-13. In the championship game, the Pythons defeated Apopka, 6-1, on the strength of Gran- den Goetzman's pitching, strong hitting and great defense. Hits came from Chad So- botka, Derek Frye, Nate Schiavon and Christian Mar- tinez,- Mike Compton, Raul Quinones, Philip Dimaria and Brian Frost. Martinez hit his second monster home run of the tournament over the 275 foot home run fence. Corey Shotto was outstanding behind the dish, as he threw out one run- ner at second, and made two great catches of foul pop-ups in critical situations. Featured in the tourna- ment were the top two teams in Florida-- the Apopka Black Sox and the Angels of Reggie Williams along with one of the top Georgia teams the South Gwinnett Comets., The format of the tourna- ment was affected by the potential threat of tropical storm Arlene. A number of teams changed their plans.' "I was skeptical at first as to the legitimacy of this new tournament format, but when I saw the teams and the bracketing it made sense," Pythons 12s coach Jeff Rhodes said. "Anytime you have to beat the No. 1 rated team in Florida two out of three games in a three-day tourna- ment to win a championship, you have to play great base- ball. And we played great baseball." With the top four teams competing, it was like a mini- college World Series format to determine a champion. The tournament started with pool play. Each team played the other three teams. The Pythons opened against South Gwinett Comets, then played the Angels of Reggie Williams and closed with Apopka Black Sox. After pool play, the champi- onship rounds began. The No. 1 team played the No. 4 and the No. 2 and No. 3 played in a double elimination process. The Pythons (1) played Apopka (4), while South Gwinett (2) and the Angels (3) played. In the second round, the winners played (Pythons vs. South Gwinett) and the losers played (Apopka vs. Angels). The loser of the loser game (Angels) goes, home, while the winner of the winners' game (Pythons) sits and the loser of the winner's game plays the winner of the loser's game (South Gwinett vs. Apopka). The Pythons opened the tournament with a 6-0 win over South Gwinnett Comets. Derek Frye hit a big double off the left center field fence to plate two runners. Martinez had three hits. Aaron Rhodes, Schiavon, Sobotka, Compton, Dimaria, Austin Smith and Billy Badolato also had hits. The Pythons' toughest game was their second game of pool play against the An- gels of Reggie Williams. The Pythons came from behind to win 6-3. Frye and Rhodes were the hitting stars, as each drove in two RBIs with doubles. Trailing 3-2 in the fifth, Frye smacked a base hit into left to score the tying run. Rhodes then hit an opposite field dou- ble into left, scoring two runs giving the Pythons the lead for good. Mike Compton went the distance on the mound. Superb defense, timely hitting and smart base running keyed the victory. The Pythons only loss came at the hands of Apopka 8-5 at the close of pool play. That loss did not affect the Pythons position of No. 1 seed. Quinones and Shotto pitched well for the Pythons. Daniel Heilman, Quinones, Smith, Rhodes, Sobotka, Schiavon, Compton, Martinez, Freye and Frost all had hits. In ,the championship round, the Pythons opened against Apopka Sunday. Philip Dimaria pitched well for the Pythons in their surprisingly easy 11-4 win. Hitting was the story, as the Pythons banged out 10 hits against one of the S PHOTO COURTESY OF JEFF RHODES Players and coaches of the Venice Pythons 12-year-olds show off the handsome plaque they earned by capturing the Disney International Tournament held June 11-13. top pitchers in the state.

Whose business? King hired Adams to re- model The Dome's snack bar. King said he has given Adams $38,350 since April for work that has not been done. Adams said King has not given him any money. "He stood right in front of a code enforcement guy and said I didn't pay him nothing, " King said. However, King has a can-' celed check made out to Bay Breezd for $14,000 endorsed by Dorothy Taylor. According to King, Adams said Taylor owns -Bay Breeze Mainten- ance. Bay Breeze is a d/b/a that King said is not registered with the state. Ambush When Adanms went to The Dome, 5115 State Road 776, Venice, Monday afternoon, Sarasota County Code En- forcement Officer James Holderby was waiting for, him. Holderby handed him a citation for "acting' in the capacity of a contractor with intent on doing a remodel project on this property that requires a building permit." King said Adams claims he is not a contractor on The Dome job, "but he sure acts like one, even hired a sub sports and other types of pro- grams; the soap opera high- lights; the late-night lineup; the entertainment Q&A; the capsule movie reviews and ratings; and more. Front cover to back, we think you'll find our new-look TV Times more useful, more attractive and more interest- ing. Watch for it Sunday and let us know what you think. (contractor) and his contract with me states he is a contrac- tor." The violation carries a $50 fine that must be paid in 10, days. Holderby said he was not allowed to comment on the citation. However, the newspaper obtained a copy of it. King said it's fraud Other former clients allege that they gave Adams money for (restaurant) equipment or services and Adams either performs badly or does not perform at all. King said Adams told him he is not a licensed contrac- tor. "I'm gonna get him on fraud," King said. "When he, signed the contract that said he was a general contractor, and he's not, that's fraud.". King said he is dedicated to seeing Adams in court.. "Even," he said, "if it takes another 40 grand." Paper trail A letter dated June: 15, 2005, 'on Sarasota County let- terhead, states it clearly: "This letter is to verify Mr. Jim Adams, Ms. Dorothy Tay- lor and Bay Breeze Main- tenance's status as contrac- tors in the unincorporated area of Sarasota County.

Furthermore, Mr. Adams and Ms. Taylor have not applied for or permitted any building construction work within the unincorporated county ac- cording to current records." There is also a letter from King's lawyer, Dana J. Watts, dated June 15 and sent to Adams and Taylor. The letter begins by stating that Adams has a contract to act as consultant and general contractor for the installation of restaurant equipment and to obtain all licenses and per- mits (King said Adams signed a contract with him that states Adams is a contractor).

Remember this? The Venice Gondolier Sun wrote a story on Adams in a December 2004 edition. The owners of a local pizzeria claimed Adams rip- ped them off. Other restau- rant owners also were inter- viewed for that article and' said they were fooled by Ad- ams. Adams denied all allega- tions.. The reporter asked Adams if all the people complaining about him are liars. Adams did not answer. A number of complaints have been made to police. Police said there is nothing they can do about it, because it does not rise to the level of criminal activity. King said he will be talking with the state attorney's office about that. A Additionally, some of Ad- ams' former clients said they have contacted the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. "We are a straight-up-. front, nothing-to-hide com- pany," Adams said when in- terviewed for the pizzeria story in December. "Ifs (the complaints) all a bunch of baloney. "Anybody who owes you money is going to complain, that's just human nature." You can e-mail Tommy McIntyre at: tmcintyre @venicegondolier.com. LAND from page 1A ed-use agreement between Venice and Sarasota County. However, rates would be higher with, the county, ac- cording to Black. Drinking water is another matter. Venice's system pulls from underground wells, but the county uses mostly sur- face water sources that di- minish during the dry season. Much of the surrounding area already is being served by Venice's drinking water and wastewater treatment, plants. As for fire and police ser- vices, Venice already- is al- ready handling the neighbor- ing properties to the north, west and east of GCCFV's land. Black also has offered to develop a plan to extend and improve the Knights Trail and Laurel Road intersection as a major access point. The city has been pushing Sarasota County to install a traffic light at the congested intersection. "We think (annexation is) preferable in the long run because it is an urban area," Black said. "We're better suit- ed to provide fire and police services." What's going in GCCFV has not decided on development plans and is waiting until the purchase is complete, Hansen said. Wetlands habitat will play a role in how the project will .look. Hansen said they have not finalized how much of the land is wetlands, but outside sources estimate about 20 percent of the property is wetland habitat. Wayne Ruben of Ruben- Holland Development is assisting GCCFV in the pur- chase and will most likely be the developer. When Sarasota' Memorial Hospital changed its rnmind on buying this loca- tion and went with 66 acres at Laurel and Pinebrook roads, Ruben contacted GCCFV and has been brokering the deal. Ruben speculates at least 500 homes or townhouses, at densities ranging between three. and five units per acre, could be built. He owns a pair of neighboring parcels, total- ing about 13 acres, and is preparing to submit plans with the city to develop both as retail centers. This would add to the de- Banana Leaves Table Lamp awae ei~eemd Bambo wilh Mica velopment boom that's creat- ing a new North Venice, de- tailed in the Venice Gondolier Sun in a. series of March sto- ries. Between approved and planned development, there could be an estimated 3,000 homes along the eastern sec- tion of Laurel Road that Was a two-lane, dirt road just three years ago. On top of that, there's the Ruben-Holland retail pro- jects, another retail-movie theater proposal byWaterford owner Mike Miller and con- tinued expansion at the two' industrial centers. "I would envision (the GCCFV project) as a very common nity-feel theme," Ru- ben said. "It would be a natu- rally planned community .... thatwouldbe the direction I'd guide them in." Ownership issues For now, the major issue waiting to be resolved is how to maintain affordability' of this land. GCCFV is working with the Sarasota County Community Land Trust to re- solve issues of ownership and resale. Marjorie Floyd, vice presi- dent for marketing at GCCFV, explained that many homes in Sarasota County began as affordable and then moved' out of reach of normal work- ing families when they were resold. Statistics seem to support that claim. According to Sara- sota County, the median price of homes has more than dou- bled in five years, going from $117,000 in 2000 to $236,500 as of January 2005. Salaries have lagged drasti- cally behind real estate, in- creasing by only 17 percent during that same time period. The media salary in Sarasota County was $47,700 in 2000) and has only increased to $54,300. So if GCCFV is going to ,underwrite a major work- force housing project, it wants to make sure it remains that way whenever home- owners resell their property. "Our intent is to work with" the community housing and land trust to monitor the ongoing sale," Floyd said. "The ground lease is where the rubber meets the road."

S A --,5 GCCFV solvency The foundation has total' assets listed at more than $160 million fas of 2004, according to its Web site. Last year was the first time GCCFV's assets had topped the $160 million mark since they reached a high of nearly $170 million in 2000 and the, first time there was an annual gain instead of a decrease during that same time period. GCCFV reports its current assets at $185 million, the largest amount in the organi- zation's 10-year history. The land purchase and ensuing development will not affect the estimated $6 mil- lion worth of grants GCCFV gives out every year, accord- ing to Hansen. GCCFV will take out a line of credit for this project and sees it as an investment to help meet the foundation's community goals. "' We're not taking $16 mil- lion out of (our grants),'' Floyd said. "It is a line of credit. This will actually become an asset to the foundation." You can e-mailJ.J. Andrews at: jandrews @venicegondolier.com. W.

Crowns can be made of gold, porcelain or porcelain fused to metal. Plastics or stainless steel are also used in'special situations. Gold is an excellent restorative material and is used where esthetics is not a strong consideration, as in the back teeth. To obtain a beautiful and natural look, the choice is either porcelain or porcelain fused to metal. The latter is strong and attractive, and will give the very best results. It does not reflect light as well, however, therefore giving a more opaque appearance. Because of it translucence, porcelain can be the most natural and beautiful. It cannot always be used, however, because of thickness requirements. The results achieved by this beautiful and functional restoration, depend on the condition your mouth presents, the materials used in fabricating the crown, and the skill of your dentist. a Dr. Charles Dr. Brent Dr. Caryn SnL.

VEDDER PHONE: (941) 207-1000 FAX: (941) 484-8460 9A FRIDAY JUNE 24,2005 OUR VIEW Bush has no business asking for investigation When the governor second-guesses the police and prosecutor's office, he sets a scary precedent that smacks of pol- itics. That is what is happening now as Gov. Jeb Bush has asked a prosecutor to investigate why Michael Schiavo allegedly waited pre- cious minutes to make a 9-1-1 call after his, wife, Terri, collapsed 15 years ago. Schiavo denies he waited. The governor already made a political spectacle out of Terri Schiavo's. sad circum- stances and he had a lot of company. The comatose woman became a pawn of politi- cians during her parents' fight to keep her alive when her husband sought to have her feeding tube removed to honor what he said was her previously expressed wish not to live in a persistent vegetative state. The story played out on national TV for weeks and even warranted a last-ditch effort by Congress and President Bush, who flew back to Washington, D.C., specifically to sign a bill that allowed her family to take their grievances to a federal court. As we said before, parents can't be blamed for hanging on to hope that their child could survive that a miracle may occur. Court after court ruled in favor of Michael Schiavo, and her parents could offer no evi- dence that she would want indefinitely to re- main in the condition she endured for 15 years. Autopsy results revealed such extensive brain damage that there was no hope she wouldd ever recover, and showed, contrary to her parents' belief- or hope that she was blind. No evidence of foul play was found. This is a private, family matter that should never have been given the attention it re- ceived. Only because of the media and opportunistic politicians remember the memo from Sen. Mel Martinez's staff that said the Schiavo case could make political hay? did this family's tragedy become the nation's most talked-about issue for months. Now, after Terri Schiavo has slipped away from us, Bush refuses to let the issue die. Perhaps Bush is a man troubled by unan- swered questions. Perhaps pleas from Schi- avo's parents touched him. Then again, some have accused, perhaps Bush wants to endear himself even more to the factions who sup- ported Schiavo's patents. Perhaps, as his lame duck term winds down, he wants to make a strong statement that will give him a political boost for 2008. Whatever the reason, this is something Bush should have just left alone. Any actual legal issues still.to be resolved could have been quietly taken care of by a phone call to the attorney general. . We believe there should be no more head- line-grabbing controversies to mar the mem- ory of Terri Schiavp. Her parents need to come to terms with the fact that their be- loved daughter is truly gone. Her husband, no matter what you may think about him, deserves to live as normal alife as is possible. No one can. say what sadness or what nightmares he has to live with, anymore than they can say for certain what Bush's motives are. SMH is no white knight BOB MILES, GUEST ,COLi1N61 I recently read an editorial in another paper telling pa- tients in the .South Sarasota County area hoiv fortunate they \will be when the Sara-, sota Memorial Hospital es- tablishes facilities in Laurel. My questions are when, how, and why Laurel? For more than, 50 years taxes have been paid to sup- port SMH. For at least 40 years ,SMH has been promis- ing South Sarasota County residents a medical facility in their area witness a 4-foot by 8-foot billboard along U.S. 41 just northeast of North Port for approximately 20 years. Later, in the early 90s, SMH purchased acreage adjacent to Manatee Community Col- lege, ostensibly for the pur- pose of providing a health- care services facility for the area. Its current use, however,, is only for the public health department, run by Sarasota County, not SMH, and the South County Resources Cen- ter, where other nonprofits such as the United Way and Senior Friendship Center lease space providing other public services run largely by volunteers. In this same 50-plus-year period, two private hospitals in South Sarasota County and one in North County have been developed and have prospered without the benefit Sof a tax-base supplement for their operation. Another in the North Port area was suc- ce.ssful. In addition to substantially enlarging the 800-bed hospi- tal in downtown Sarasota, SMH has developed a med- ical campus in Eastern Sara- sota near 1-75 and an over- sized clinic near Osprey. Since SMH is supported in part with taxes, a substantial emphasis has been placed on the need of SMH to operate in areas where the indigent who do not have.health insurance or the funds to pay for health care live and work. Facts are, that while being tax support- ed is a benefit for SMH, all hospitals that participate and operate under Medicare and Medicaid are required to per- form a certain percentage of their revenues in "charity" work. Thus, SMH is not alone in caring for the indigent and uninsured. SMH has 'been an active competitor of the other pri- vate hospitals that have de- veloped over the years; using its size and strength to main- tain and increase its position and status. The prime example, among many others, of this type of activity was the battle over the. Venice Hospital application for an open-heart facility for South Sarasota County. Venice Hospital's initial applications were submitted to the state in the late 1980s. Due to delays created largely by SMNH as it fought the appli- cation, approximately 15 years passed before approval was finally granted. In spite of what appears to be a pledge by SMH to pro- vide health care services to all .of Sarasota County, its princi- ple interest seems to remain in the northern part of the county and the areas' of greater wealth. The establishment of a health-care clinic east of Laurel near the new "Vene- tian" complex places an emphasis on serving pro- spective-patients who are bet- ter able to afford health care costs. SMH has the largest health-care facility, has the most up-to-date health care technology, is the leader in critical health care delivery and has available the appro- priate sources of funds to maintain the leadership role for the health care delivery in Sarasota County. As such, the attitude of the leader should be one of coop- eration with and support for the other health care pro- viders, rather than that of a competitor. Further, the leader should sponsor, devel- opment, financially and oth- erwise, of programs to im- prove health care for Sarasota County patients. It would seem that if all the Sarasota County residents and taxpayers were to benefit from all of the advances in health care available through SMH, Sarasota Memorial should locate its future facili- ties where the needs, are greatest, i.e., south and east of Venice, to include all of its prospective patients. It would also appear it could use ac- reage it currently owns in South County to improve the lot of Sarasota County resi- dents. Bob Miles was a trustee and officer of Venice Hospital from 1966 through 1995. During this period he served 12 years as president and board chair and 15 years as chair of Gulf Area Medical Programs, the Venice Hospital holding company. "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content .o ilable from Commercial News Provid LETTERS FROM OUR READERSb Skateboard ban by city would be ageism Editor: I could not believe my eyes when I read that city council is considering a ban on skateboarding in downtown Venice. But I was even more shocked when one reason given was, "Skateboarders and senior citizens are really not that compati- ble." That is point-blank ageism. It strikes at the heart of the Communities for a Lifetime resolution passed by council last year, which calls for the purposeful bringing together of differ- ent generations. If policing is needed for kids that are not playing it safe, 'then do so, but do not drive another wedge between our young adults and elders. That throws the baby out with the bathwater. Have you explored why these young people are using the sidewalks and not the skate park? Have you checked if there is transportation to and from during appropriate hours? This may just be another example of the suffering our pop- ulation goes through because theycannot access available resources due to a lack of properly planned public transporta- tion for South County. Do not blame our elders for this attack on fun. I, for one, enjoy watching the kids play. Let us not forget that play is good for our young people and even better under the watchful eye of our, entire community. We do not need another wall segregating our elders and young people. Keith Backhaus. Venice Editor's Note: Backhaus is chair of the city's Committee on Senior Living and a GondolierSun columnist. Skateboarding is not a crime Editor: Here we go again! At last, the streets of the city of Venice (that roll up at 6 p.m.) will be safe once more, safe from crime now that those rotten skateboarders are gone. We have Mr. Lupo, who really is not sure what he wants but whatever it is it must carry a 2.0 grade point average, and Mr. Tacy, who wants to save us from our- selves and put a well-run , small business out of busi- ness. If you are' going to ban the skateboarders, then let's also . ban bikes, baby strollers, those three-wheel Larks that the elderly use to get around, and fat people -- where does it stop? There are groups of people in'this town who will have to come to terms with the fact that there are young people who live here, and more are moving here every day. They should learn to deal with it. If there are kids doing wrong things on skateboards, then they need to be dealt with. We do not need more broad-brush policies. By the way, my kids don't even skate- board.

Control of zoning and issuing of permits allows us to prevent indiscriminate development. Therefore, it seems to me we should be annexing as much adjacent land as possi- ble .and we should be electing candidates who advocate severely limiting growth. Otherwise, I fear that the additional population that will surely arrive will strain our already rationed water resources and that the presence of so many new neighbors will clog our roads as they commute to gulfside activities. Let the developers and speculators channel their greed toward the hundreds of miles of gulf coast land north of the Tampa-St. Pete area. Leave our paradise alone. When? I doubt if you'll print'this because it sounds like an attack, but what's being attacked is the city of Venice. I've lived here 15 years and seen the population triple. When do we stop the developers and their lawyers? Nothing new? I've been very interested in the com- ments about the local day- care center and the charges of alleged abuse.'My son attend- ed that day-care center 14-16 years ago and he too came home with bruises and was very emotional in the morn- ing. He would climb the fence to try to catch me so I would- n't leave him there, and I too thought it was just him hav- ing a hard time adjusting. Then he started having wet pants almost every day when I picked him up. I would dis- cipline him, and he said, "Mommy, it's not my fault; they wouldn't let me go to the bathroom." There were quite a few issues back then. Things weren't as publicized as they are now. I wonder if he too suffered the same problems these children have been going through lately. Bad water? I have a con- cern about the water at the Wellfield ball fields as a moth- er and a former player. We've always been told not to drink the water that comes out of the tap, in the concession stand. I've noticed that an- other mother has passed away at a young age who had children playing at that ball- field, and also a father. My own mother passed away from breast cancer after my brother and I and my children played there. It's a cause of concern to me. I've seen a lot of Little League and high school players' mothers pass away. at a very young age in the last 10 years or so. Maybe somebody should take a look at this. Smell the money.

It really should bother us that Siesta Key is going to have 11 old- timey houses torn down and big monstrosities put up. It's going to be Naples soon. Also, the Venice Y camp does prayers at every camping ses- sion. I don't think prayers should be allowed in the camps. That's for Sundays. That's discriminatory against people who don't want'to pray. The YMCA should not allow those prayers during camping time or encourage them. EDITOR'S NOTE: Do remember that YMCA stands for Young Men's Christian Association. Red tape.

BYTOMMY MCINTYRE STAFF WRITER Prologue The woman who called the Venice Gondolier Sun's crime reporter swears the following is a l[ue story; however, the story cannot be verified. It is a story where verifica- tion does not matter the message far overrides any truths that may or may not be apart of it. This is the stuff of urban legend. Urban legends may or may not be true. The story and the telling of it count more than the truth or fact and, there is a difference between truth and fact. More than anything else, urban legends are what we want to believe. They give us substance and hope. They become part of the fabric of our culture. Here is the story A clerk at a Casey Key motel said a guest who stayed, there had a fishing boat. He and some friends went fish- ing recently, came back, stowed the fishing gear and put up the boat for the night. Next morning the guest came out and noticed that the fishing poles were,not in the same place they were stowed. - They were bundled neatly and there was a note on them. The note read: "My son stole your fishing poles. He owes you an apolo- gy. Please call us," There was a phone num- ber. It is unclear whetherthe call was made, or the apology given because the boat owner, for his own reasons, chose not to con- tact this newspaper. Why is this story important? If you have to ask the ques- tion, you probably won't understand the answer. But, it has to do with good parent- ing, values and responsibility. Simply stated, the mom and dad of whoever stole-the fishing poles stepped up to the plate. My guess is, their kid will turn out fine, thanks to par- ents who really care as opposed to parents who merely give it lip service. They are the ones who tell every- body else how much they love their kids so they'll think they're great parents. Raising the little darlings is hard, isn't it? Not like raising. puppies, or kitties, where you,. just put newspapers on the floor and make sure they have food and water. About the urban legend part? / Wouldn't you like to be- lieve there are at least some parents out there with a strong sense of integrity, pride and ownership? What message do you come away with after reading the story? If your kid stole some fish- ing poles, would you make him take them back and put a note on them telling the owner to call so the kid could apologize? Yeah, right. The'mother' of all urban legends One of the best of all urban legends rose from the ashes of the third-worst aviation disaster in history. Northwest Airlines Flight 255 crashed seconds after taking off from Detroit's Met- ropolitan Airport, Aug. 16, 1987. I was there. Of the 155 people aboard, 154 .died when the plane crashed into a bridge on 1-94 in Romulus, Mich., west of Detroit. Two more people on the ground also died. The crash's only survivor was 4-year-old Cecelia Ci- chan, now a young woman. Cecelia's parents and 6-year- old brother died in the crash. Word quickly spread around the world that Cecelia was found under her moth- er's body. It was widely believed that her mother, in the last few seconds of life, tried to protect her daughter by shielding her with her own body. That story still circulates today 18 years later. In fact, the on-site investi- gation of the crash would reveal that Cecelia was found, dazed and still belted in her seat, some distance away from her mother's body. It doesn't matter, does it? Facts get in the way of a good story. We would rather believe that the mother's last thoughts, when faced with imminent doom, were only to protect her child. Arguably, preserving this real or perceived goodness about ourselves is more im- portant than any truth. You can e-mail Tommy McIntyre at: tmcintyre @venicegondolier.com.

Driftwood Kennels began when Fred and Rita Figg met while walking their dogs in Nokomis 34 years ago. They married and were caring for friends' dogs when it occur- red to them there was a need for kennels. They found a piece of property on Laurel Road and were negotiating to purchase when Fred's dog died. The, owner gave permission to bury the dog in a cow pen on the property, so Fred and his dad, watched by 20 cows, dug the grave, and a week later he bought the property. "Christa is still out there, with a nice granite headstone, and now we have close to 4,000 pets buried there," commented Figg. I Each week they have five burials, including a service Figg conducts. Each year 500- 600 pets are cremated in the Driftwood Crematory, an average each week of four pets, including one or more pets collected daily from vet- erinarians for cremation. Owners come by to pick up the remains. A few weeks ago Fred did a pet rat; he admits that was a first. He has cremated a bunch of ferrets, all kinds of little creatures, guinea pigs and hamsters, but basically it is cats and dogs. Private pet cremations range from $140 to $200 and are very professional, done one at a time with owners receiving only their pet's ashes. A pet burial costs from $300 to $600. "We started this business 29 years ago, and nowwe take care of 100 pets here at the kennel," said Figg, who has a complete pet .store on the premises. Recently he created his own special way to memorial- ize pets: the True Love Bead, fitted to a necklace, bracelet,. key-ring or ballpoint pen. Driftwood Kennels' repu- tation is. known throughout the country, as Rita Figg is an American Kennel Club judge and goes all over the country judging dog shpws and field trials. The Figgs show their own champion dogs at events around the country. Festival to offer test rides Following their success at last year's show, Segway Peo- ple Movers will be returning to the Venice-Nokomis Ro- tary Club Art Festival at the Airport Festival Grounds on Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 21 and 22.

Trailers deliver ice cream store Two trailers recently deliv- ered the manufactured build- ing for the Brusters Ice Cream store to 339 Commercial Court at the Jacaranda Interstate Interchange. It has been as- sembled, but construction of the drive-through and parking lot and installation of land- scaping and more equipment will take another three weeks, according to David Land, franchisee owner. Carol Land, his wife, a teacher at Sarasota High School, is retiring to manage the store. They expect to hire an associate manager and around 30 young people to operate the store from 11 a.m., to 10 p.m. daily. Brusters has 140 flavors, which are typically rotated seasonally. Land says peach is a spring seller, pumpkin in summer with cakes and pies for the fall and'winter holiday season. Customers bringing, their canine pets will receive a free dog biscuit with their ice cream and for those doggies under 40 inches long there is a special ice cream cone. Depot sold Suburban Propane recently sold the premises at 350 Seaboard Ave., Venice, for $470,000. Operations were transferred to Sarasota and Cape Coral. - "We believe we are able to provide a better local service in these growing markets," commented Tom Ross, re- gional manager, confirming the customer.base has been split up so southern cus- tomers are being served by- the Cape Coral depot and Venice clients from Sarasota. Bigger homes for boomers Property designs preferred by baby boomers, where they may be located, movement trends and attitudes to road, and infrastructure develop- ment will shape our future. Their preferences have changed as they come south with more money, wanting bigger lots with larger houses. Even people with smaller families want homes of 3,500 'square feet and more; conse- quently, developers have to make the lots bigger. Although still 40 feet wide with $350,000-$450,000 homes, in recent years they could not be built quick enough for peo- ple in Pelican Pointe Golf & Country Club. ' AlMaio of Kimley-Hom and Associates is convinced in the future there will be bigger lots with different styles and de- signs of homes. Condomin- iums will be matched on a smaller piece of land, two or three stories high with even more open space around them, giving an appreciably different appearance.

Indiana Ave., Englewood, will close soon, reducing the options for Venice-area patrons of the grocery chain. Winn-Dixie cutting stores, jobs The supermarket chain has major cuts in stores and employees as part of its reorganization plan: in bankruptcy.. STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS The Winn-Dixie on Indi- ana, Avenue in Englewood was the only area store slated for closure under the super- market giant's proposed bankruptcy reorganization plan announced Tuesday. Winn-Dixie. said it will cease operations in four Southern states, close 326 of its 913 stores and cut 22,000 jobs. The company said it will stop operating 'in Tennessee, Virginia and the Carolinas and trim operations in its five remaining states: Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Missis- sippi and Louisiana. The cuts amount to 35 percent of its stores and 28 percent of its current work force of 78,000. The company said.it will try to find buyers for the clos- ing stores and ask the new owners to retain as many employees as possible. In May of last year, Winn- Dixie said it would close only three of its more than 400 Florida stores. On: the store's Web' site Tuesday, however, six Florida stores were ear- marked for closure, including two in Naples, one in Fort Myers and two in Gainesville, in addition to the Indiana Avenue store. Area stores remaining open are large "Marketplace" stores at Promenades Mall and Kings Crossing Shopping? Center in Port Charlotte,. at Cleveland Marketplace in Punta Gorda and on McCall Road in Englewood. Stores at the North Port Shopping Center and Arcadia. Market- place also will remain open. The Venice-area Winn-Dixie store closed several years ago. Chopping block In a statement, Winn-Dixie said it will try to sell six dairy plants, its pizza' plant in Montgomery, Ala., and its Chek Beverage/Deep South Products plant in Fitzgerald, Ga., which produces Chek soda, shtelf-stable juices and condiments. If buyers are not found, Winn-Dixie said it would con- tinue to operate the Chek Beverage plant and its Ham- mond, La., and Plant City, Fla., dairies. The company also said that it is working to find a third party to produce else-, where the items made at its Astor Products plant in Jack-, sonville and the condiments at the Deep South plant. Those plants will then be closed. " Peter Lynch, president and CEO of Winn-Dixie, has said for months that the reorga- nized company must become, smaller. "We regret the impact these tough decisions will have on many of our associ- ates, customers and local communities. We do not take these decisions lightly and would not be proceeding if these steps were not essential to restore Winn-Dixie's finan- cial health," Lynch. said in a statement. An attorney representing Winn-Dixie, Stephen Busey, said at a bankruptcy hearing last week that Winn-Dixie planned to cut 400 jobs from the 1,400 at its corporate headquarters. Winn-Dixie. which filed for bankruptcy on Feb. 21, is No. 182 on the 2005 Fortune 500 list of the country's largest corporations. It was ranked eighth among 19 foo4 and drug store companies, while Lakeland-based Publix was ranked sixth among super- miarkets and No. 117 overall. The Jacksonville-based superrriarkef chain listed assets of $2.2 billion and lia- bilities of $1.9 billion in a February bankruptcy filing. Winn-Dixie shares traded up after the closures were announced, rising 2 cents or 1.3 percent at $1.14, in over- the-'counter trading Tuesday afternoon after being down most of the day. 41' .

Top 10 fraud cases add up to more than $2.7 million in losses STAFF REPORT Florida's Chief Financial Officer Tom Gallagher released the Department of, Financial Services' annual Top 10 Fraud List June 14. The list summarizes 10 of the costliest or boldest securi- ties, financial and insurance fraud scamnis that resulted in arrests or convictions by the Division of Insurance Fraud during the fiscal year that began July 1. 2004, and ends June 30.

The incident happened on 1-75 north of Moon Road at 2:29 p.m., June 21. According to the report, a crane operated by Robert F. Etre, of Fort Myers, was un- loading steel rebar from a- parked flatbed trailer in the center median of 1-75, a con- struction zone. As the rebar was lifted from the truck bed, it started to rotate.

"But working together, we can fight back against these criminals and hit back hard. The most im- portant thing consumers can' do is verify before they buy." This year's Top 10 fraud schemes ranged from tide insurance trickery to the perennial list maker, personal, injury protection auto insur- ance, or PIR fraud. On the list is one PIP fraud case in which eight individu- als posed as journalists to gain access to police crash reports in order to solicit \ic- tims to go to unscrupulous medical clinics. In another, more than two dozen individuals were arrested in a complex scheme that involved staging crashes in order to create "patients" for fraudulent medical clinics. The ringleader is suspected of staging more than 90 auto crashes. The 10 cases add up to more than $2.7 million in financial losses. Additional potential losses in these 10 cases losses that may have occurred if an arrest had not been made when it was --. add up to more than $1 mil-, lion. Resources The department has a number of online resources, including a Verify Before You Buy page that includes links that allow consumers to check dthe licensure status of, an insurance or financial ser- vices company, broker or- agent; a Senior Resource Cen- ter that specifically addresses concerns and needs of Flor- ida's senior citizens facing important financial deci- sions: and a Service Point link where consumers can ask a question or file a complaint and track the status of their request. These resources and more can be found at fldfs.com or by calling (8001342-2762. Gallagher also said that the department is willing to pay up to $25,000 for information that directly leads to, an arrest or conviction in a fraud scheme. "That's very likely a whole lot more than. one might make participating in one of these schemes, and we want to award law-abiding citizens who get involved and help make a difference," he stated. So far this fiscal year, the department's Division of Insurance Fraud has made more than 700 arrests. ISAAC L. PADFIELD Isaac L. Padfield. age 95. of Venice.

Death of a princess stirs memories BYJEREMYROTTGEN STAFF WRITER Sailing has many compar- isons with life. Ralph Maier, 78, has spent his fair share of time sailing all over the world, but his experiences on land are nothing short of significant. He witnessed Nazi Germany and came to the United States early enough to see the dawn of the City of Venice. Maier came to Venice in 1935 be-, cause his father was associ- ated with prominent Venice citizen, Dr. FredAlbee. Maler was born in Bronx, NY, but moved to Germany for a couple of years with his grandmother. "The German discipline was unbelievable," Maier said. "I would ask my grand- ma, 'Oma, what are those guys doing on the street with those uniforms?' Oma would say, 'They make sure the German people do what the Firher wants.'" , Nlaier lived in Geisen, Germany, an area that wit- nessed Nazi parades .every day. He said when Hitler would speak, stormtroopers grabbed and threw by- standers into bars. "That way he made sure that everybody listened to him," Maler said. Maier came to Venice just when they were finishing the jetties. He grew up on Roberts Bay and went to Laurel Elementary. When he first arrived lie didn't speak English and was still wearing his liederhosen. Ike Roberts, for whom Roberts Road is named, taught him how to speak English. "Mr. Roberts was such a beautiful influence on my life," Maier said. "Venice was poverty stricken. Many of these kids did not have shoes," he said. "There was nothing here. How they got by, I don't know." Maier and afewfriends felt the local high school, at that time in Nokomis, was so bad they would hitchhike up to Sarasota High School. Maier decided to forego graduation and joined the Merchant Marines at 17, which he sailed with during World War II. By the age of 19 he was a licensed deck officer and an experienced celestial navigator. He stayed in the Merchant Marines until 1950. He began studying history and was attending Florida State University when Harry Truman created the Univer- sal Nilitary Training program for men ages 18-26. Maier was called to join just before turning 26. He thought after the war was over he'd go back to school and earn his degree, but President Truman and the Navy had other plans. Maier joined a pro- gram granting him a com- mission and rank for joining up. Maier chose the Navy be- cause of his previous experi- ence in the Merchant Ma- rines, andin this war he want- ed to be on a boat that shot back. After being enlisted for immediate active duty, he was sent to San Di-ego for amphibious training. He was sent overseas to Japan aboard the USS Mer- rick, an attack and transport ship.. That ship carried sever- al smaller boats called amphibious assault boats. Ralph Maier used this sextant for celestial navigating during his time with the Merchant Marines. I faier said the benefits the Navy provided made the ex- perience worthwhile, and was one of the best choices he ever made. There was good food, movies every night and he really liked his captain. But he worked hard, too. "In the Merchant Marines I really worked my buns off," he said. Maier liked that in the Navy his ship would stay at port for up to three weeks. In the Merchant Marines Maier's ship had come to port for only 24 hours. Maier's Captain, Harry' Hull, had been captain of a submarine during World War II. When Capt. Hull was a midshipman at the academy he befriended a young Princess Kikuko, otherwise known as Princess Taka- matsu. "I liked Capt. Hull very much. That time under him was very valuable," Maier said. "He was a very distin- Please see PRINCESS, 11B ~` \. : ~ ....:.~ -'- l II: The Ventura was the source of Maier's pride for many years because it won him so many races. a , ... 2B VENICE GONDOLIER SUN BR 1iA I( FRIDAY, JUNE 26, 2005 "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" 4Hm. = SUN PHOTO BY FRAN VALENCIC Barbara Keyes knows volunteering is important.

Venice Ave., Suite 211 941-488-1906 PHOTO COURTESY OF VRMC Michael Basnight, M.D. is a cardiologist at the Venice Reional Medical Center. STAFF REPORT A brand-new, nonsurgical procedure for patients in danger of stroke, just approved by the FDA in April, is being performed at Venice Regional Medical Center. Called carotid stenting, it is a welcome procedure for patients who might have had to risk stroke because they were not candidates for surgery. Michael Basnight, M.D., a cardiologist at the hospital's Venice Regional Heart Center, recently performed two carotid artery stenting proce- dures here. Carotid artery stenting is a procedure in which a slender, metal-mesh tube; called a stent, is inserted into the carotid artery. The stent expands inside the artery to increase blood flow in areas formerly blocked by plaque. A person has carotid artery disease when plaque builds up and reduces blood flow in the carotid arteries to the brain, which can cause a stroke. Until now, the only way to increase the blood flow when plaque is present in the carotid arteries was to per- form a carotid endarterecto- my, which is surgical removal of the plaque. "This procedure is an alter- native to a surgical proce- dure," Dr. Basnight said. "It is less invasive and can be used for patients who are at high- risk for surgery." Those considered to be high-risk patients for carotid artery surgery include: those older than 79 as well as any- one who has had heart fail- ure, prior carotid artery surgery, radiation to the neck or extensive neck surgery, recent myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, unstable angina, cancer with a less than 50-percent survival rate, or kidney, lung or liver failure. Dr. Basnight said one of the patients for whom he per- formed a carotid stent proce- dure was recently turned down for surgery locally and in Tampa. The patient was in danger of having a major stroke. The other patient was elderly, but was offered both options, ultimately choosing the less invasive procedure. Each patient was dis- charged the morning after the procedure was done. The rou- tine hospital stay for carotid surgery is two days. Both are doing very well, he said. "Carotid stenting is not for everyone," Dr. Basnight cau- tions. "Surgery still is a good procedure. This just offers an alternative for some patients."

BY ELAINE ALLEN-EMRICH NORTH PORT ASSISTANT EDITOR They're in her carport, lanai, living room, bedroom, kitchen and even her bath- room. More than 800 turtles have invaded Janie Corey's house. During the past 18 years, she has acquired hundreds of stuffed, ceramic and other types of small and large green creatures. She has T-shirts, rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and a pair of slip- pers, all with a turtle motif. Corey's love for collecting stuffed toys of all types came to her as a young adult after being asked to pick a mascot for a civic club. "I liked the tortoise because it's always sticking its neck out," said the mother of five, grandmother of six and great-grandmother of four. "I realized that's what I would do many times in my life." In addition to her turtle collection, her tables are a showcase for Beanie Babies in different colors and sizes. She has more than 200 stuffed animals on couches and tables. She even has two dogs that sing the Sonny and Cher song, "I got you, babe." Corey, who has worked in the cosmetic industry for the past 20 years, has helped in the community as often as she can. "When my husband died many years ago, my family thought I would go back up north," she said. "They thought that because I don't have family here. I decided to stay. I enjoy it here." Corey laughs when she realizes she has more stuffed toys than all of her grand- or great-grandchildren. They have, however, contributed to her collection. "My son came here and saw that I didn't have a mon- key," she said. "He and the kids sent me a monkey that whistles at you when you walk by it." Forthe kids Corey decided it was time to part with some of her stuffed toys so that others could enjoy them. She donated 150 stuffed bears, clowns, bunnies and other stuffed toys to the Early Bird Kiwanis Club for its Young Children Priority One program. The club donates stuffed animals to the local police and fire departments to help children who have been in traumatic situations. Rue Berryman, an Early Bird Kiwanis member, told the group last Wednesday that he wanted more stuffed animals. He said police offi- cers and firefighters have been handing out the animals they were given by the club two months ago. Another member suggested that the program be expanded to give stuffed toys to hurricane shel- ters in preparation of small children who have to evacu- ate their homes. "This came at a really good time for us," said Berryman. "We really appreciate what this wonderful woman did for us." Corey, who works at an area CVS store, said she was more than happy to help. She didn't part with any of her turtles, however; they are all still there to keep her com- pany. You can e-mail Elaine Allen-Emrich at eallen@sun- herald.com. SUN PHOTO BY LISA CONDER Janie Corey donates about 150 new stuffed animals Friday to the Early Bird Kiwanis in North Port. The animals will be given to FEMA, the fire department and the police department, which will distribute them to children in need, including hurricane victims. We're getting our own post office! . One of the priorities from our South Venice Community Plan was to pursue a long- awaited post office for South Venice. The land for it had been purchased by the postal service many years ago, but then came the disappointing news that funds were no longer available for construc- tion. At the South Venice Civic Association, we continued to write letters to our legislators anyway. County commissioner Shannon Staub made the announcement Monday night at the SVCA meeting that the funds have now been allocated, the facility is cur- rently being designed and bids will be let in July with the award for construction to be some time in September. Projected time for comple- tion is between 18 and 24 months from now. The post office will be located at Jacaranda Boulevard and U.S. 41 behind the CVS pharmacy across from Wal-Mart. Such good news! Jane Grogg, supervisor of Neighborhood Services, spoke at our Monday meeting to. give the audience an update of other priorities in the SV Community Plan. They are too extensive to cover here, but I have copies of her report at the SVCA office. They cover sidewalks to be built, Shamrock Park and the Venetian Waterway Park improvements, outdoor light- ing, grants, code enforcement and gateway signs. Jane suggested there be a contest open to the entire South Venice community to design these gateway entrances into South Venice. Everyone agreed. The signs will be erected at Shamrock and U.S.. 41 and State Road 776 and U.S. 41. When she asked for a vol- unteer to coordinate with her, I immediately jumped in and offered the SVCA offices as a location with one or two vol- unteers to work with her. She will be getting further infor- mation to us soon. So all you South Venice artists and designers, sharpen your pencils and get out the drawing boards. You have an opportunity to have your tal- ent displayed for years and years on the new gateway signs.

Venice Gondolier Sun 6 RELIGION FRIDAY JUNE 24,200501 I CONTACT US DEBBIE SHULMAN RELIGION EDITOR (941) 207-1106 dshulman@venicegondolier.com Stand up and be counted I was asked to present a commentary at the Jewish Center of Venice on the por- tion of the Torah being read that week. It dealt with the beginning of the book of numbers, where God com- mands Moses to take a cen- sus of the Israelites. We were asked to "Stand Up and Be Counted!" This inevitably led to relevance for us, Jew and non-Jew alike, in today's world. Now more than ever I believe Jewish people must make themselves known to the "other nations" so we will cease to be a mystery and we all can discover just how alike we are in our val- ues, desires, hopes and dreams. My involvement with the interfaith commun- ity convinces me that we have to be like Abraham's tent, opened on all sides, in- viting all to break bread with us. The present administra- tion in Washington poses a significant threat to our na- tional well being and safety by sanctioning and encourag- ing the blurring of separation of church and state. This country recognized the dan- gers of theocratic govern- ments by establishing this radical concept, the separa- tion of church and state. This allowed all religions full pro- tection under the law. Jews are not invited guests, toler- ated visitors, walled-off in- truders as so much of our history will attest to. We were, are, citizens equal to any other citizen. There are now about 30 million evan- gelic fundamentalists who insist, and have the ear of our government, that their religious rights are being denied and this country has to return to its Christian roots, a Christian-based gov- ernment. After all, this is a Christian country, they say. This is not a Christian coun- try, but a country in which, at the present time, Christianity is the predominant religion. This is where Standing Up and Being Counted begins. We must not shy away from combating this distortion of facts, this misguided inter- pretation of so plain and' simple a declaration that "congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;" in other words, "Government, stay out of the religion busi- ness." No religious practices are being threatened; where it is to be practiced is being questioned. Religion is very personal and private. Its place is in the sanctuary, the religious Please see KREISS, 7B RELIGION BRIEFS Summer camp * Chabad of Sarasota holds Camp Gan Israel Summer Camp, June 27-July 22,9 a.m.- 3 p.m. at 7700 Beneva Road.

Athletes from around the globe have com- mitted themselves to intense, life consuming training for this event. Their whole lives are consumed with the vision that some day they will stand on a platform and receive a gold medal. I believe that we are fascinated by the whole Olympic scene because it is a microcosm of the universal human quest to find purpose that really matters. Do you know of anything worth com- mitting your whole life to? In the Bible, the apostle Paul uses the powerful visual metaphor of the Olympic runner to make a point. He writes, "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 3:14 The New International Version). By Paul's definition this prize is summed up in knowing Jesus in a personal relation- ship. Paul committed his whole life to that goal. In Philippians 3:8-10 Paul writes, "I consider everything Doc I R E-o C si Y or loa worship services First Baptist Church of Venice 312 W.

I consider them rub- bish, that I may gain Christ... I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection" (The New International Version). Was it worth it or are these the ravings of a mad man? One could ask the same questions of the Olympic athletes. These individuals often dedicate their whole lives to the goal an Olympic victory for which they will receive a gold coin on a rib- bon. Any individual who would be willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of a chunk of metal on a rope could justifiably have his san- ity questioned. Perhaps the medal itself is not the goal. The great value of the Olympic medal is not found only in its metallic content, rather it is derived from what .the award represents - Victory, national pride, hon- or; recognition, fame, ac- knowledgment of outstand- ing strength and superior ability. Olympic medals rep- resent these values and more. Is knowing Jesus a goal worth committing your whole life to? According to Paul, you can count on it!

What reli- gion contributes to the public are the ways of living in a civil manner with each other. All religions, in their private spaces, teach the same thing,, that which is based on our, Torah and that which we have been entrusted by God to guard and' disseminate through our actions. "It has been told thee, 0 man, what is good, "And what the Lord doth require of thee: Only to do justly, and to love mercy, and BURT. from page 6B to press on, or strain toward this mark. The Word of God tells us that everything of real value in this life, and in eternity, springs from a right relation- I ship with God. That is the mark or the goal of the Christian believer. A right relationship with God is the product of trusting Jesus Christ to forgive our sins and to help us live for Him. The position of the forgiven life comes from Jesus alone but we are partners with Him the process of this new life. The rewards of this new life can be amazing! They include, forgiveness, purity, peace, hope, power, eternal life, and much more. Have you. found anything worth committing your whole life to yet? Why would anyone settle with gathering. the scraps of life? There are pre- cious few things in this life that have enduring real value. How can we know what these things are? Consider the words of Matthew 6:32-33 from The Living Bible; 31 "So, don't worry at all about having enough food and clothing. Why be like the hea- then? For they take pride in all these things and are deeply concerned about them. But your heavenly Father already knows perfectly well that you need them, and he will give them to you if you give him first place in your life and live as he wants you to." To put it simply, if you put a right relationship with God first in your life He will insure that you have everything else that you truly need. Ac- cording to the Bible your gold medal, your mark, should be an honest relationship with God. Jesus declared, "I am the Road, also the Truth, also the Life. Nd one gets to the Father apart from me" (John 14:6 The Message). The path to the God's Olympic Gold requires enduring faith and real commitment. It may be challenging at times but the rewards are well worth the journey so press on for God's gold! The Rev. Randy Burt is pastor of the New Life Assembly of God Church in Venice.

The Tampa Museum of Art will launch its 26th season with stunning masterpieces from the American Modernist Movement. The exhibition, Georgia O'Keeffe and her Time: Masterworks from the Lane Collection, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston offers more than 50 works from some of J- the most influential Ameri- can painters of the twentieth -century, including Georgia O'Keefe, Charles Sheeler, Arthur G. Dove, Stuart Davis and Marsden Hartle.. SThe paintings of these modem masters are the core , of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts' notable collection of Modem art, with the Lane Collection considered one of the great pioneering collec- tions of American Modern- ism. The selected master-: pieces for this exhibition date to the American Mod- ernist movement (1900- 1930), which bridged the gap between progressive forms of European Art, such as cubism, German Expression- " ism and Futurism, and the more representational Ameri- can art. l Many of the works shown depict aspects of American, on the Pier life, including landscapes, cityscapes, still lifes and fig- urative works. The iconic images for which Georgia O'Keeffe is most famous, such as flowers, skulls and adobe buildings are show- cased throughout the exhibi- tion. Prior to being showcased at the Tampa Museum of Art, Georgia O'Keeffe and her Time was on loan to the Museum in Nagoya, Japan- the result of a partnership established to share the dis- tinguished collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The exhibition will be on view at the Tampa Museum of Art, Oct. 2-Jan. 8. Ihis exhibition is based on an exhibition organized by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Nagoya/ Bos- ton Museum of Fine Arts.

And then, over in Animal Kingdom, you can hang out with the hippest dinosaur ever, an audioanimatronic wonder that is not attached to a stage but actually is self- powered through the streets of the Kingdom, accompa- nied only by a few handlers, like any of the Disney char- acters. Disneyland opened July 17, 1955 and all the Disney parks around the world are joining in the celebration.

Bale who shot to child stardom in Steven Spielberg's "Empire of the Sun" then moved on to a grown-up career filled with menace and foreboding in such films as "American Psycho" and "The Machinist" now re- creates the comic-book dark knight with "Batman Begins." He's no newcomer to big- budget movies breakout. roles do not get much bigger than playing the lead in a Spielberg flick at 13. And Bale's credits include the apocalyptic dragon tale "Reign of Fire" and a role as a contemptuous killer in the update of "Shaft." Yet Bale's general choices and his dislike of the spot- light have left him a cult fig- ure who, at 31, finally is the central player in a behemoth Hollywood production. "I never had a desire to be well known," Bale told The Associated Press. "There was never enormous ambition, so I think I managed to stay under the radar for most peo-. ple in the public eye, And consequently, I find myself for many people being, ..'Oh, he's this new guy in "Bat- man."' I mean, I've been around for 20 years doing this." For much of that time, Bale has focused on smaller, offbeat movies such as "Velvet Goldmine," "Metro- land" and "Laurel Canyon." In "American Psycho," Bale was a remorseless yup- pie serial killer. In "The Machinist," he was a gaunt scarecrow suffering through a yearlong bout of insomnia. Even his higher-profile films the musical "Newsies," the World War II dance tale "Swing Kids," the period dramas "Little Wom- en" and "The Portrait of a Lady" clearly show Bale's tastes run somewhere south of mainstream. Born in Wales, Bale spent his early childhood globe- hopping with his family, liv- ing in California and Port- ugal for a time. He began his career in commercials, TV and stage roles in Eng- land before Spielberg cast him as a pampered British boy struggling to survive the Japanese occupation in China in "Empire of the Sun." Though he worked regu- larly, following up with roles in Kenneth Branagh's "Henry V" and the lead in a TV ver- sion of "Treasure Island," Bale was not the typical child star. He made a seamless tran- sition to adult roles, avoiding the fate of so many child actors who wind up unable to find a place in show busi- ness after their youthful star- dom waned. "I was fortunate enough that I started off playing char- acter roles. 'Empire of the Sun' is not your typical high school comedy. So I started offwith nice adult roles," Bale said. i "Batman Begins" presents the early days of the DC Comics hero, offering a dark- er vision than the film series that began with Tim Burton's 1989 "Batman." Burtonrs two "Batman" movies and two other sequels restored much of the comic books' brooding tone to a character best known to many people as. a comic figure from the 1960s TV show. The new "Batman" pre- sents billionaire Bruce Wayne torn between justice and vig- ilante vengeance years after witnessing his parents' mur- ders. Bruce travels the globe to delve into the criminal mind and eventually finds a mentor (Liam Neeson) who hones the young man's mind and body for the task of fighting corruption. Bruce returns to his native Gotham City, a cesspool of crime, where he becomes the phantomlike Batman, aided by his surrogate father, butler Alfred (Michael Caine), a childhood friend (Katie Holmes) now in the district attorney's office, a high-tech gadgetry whiz (Morgan Freeman), and a virtuous cop (Gary Oldman). Aiming for gritty realism compared to the camp and style of earlier "Batman" incarnations, the filmmakers needed an actor who could credibly capture the fanati- cism that would drive a man to cloak himself in a batsuit. "What Christian has, he has this extreme level of self- discipline, of dedication and intensity, and you can see it in his eyes," director Chris- topher Nolan said. "It allows the audience to accept that this guy can transform him- self into a superhero, which is a pretty extreme thing to ask an actor to convey." Training for the role, Bale. bulked up to 220 pounds. Only five months earlier, the 6-foot-2 Bale had weighed just 121 pounds after starving himself for "The Machinist," in which be played a man physically and mentally trau- matized after a year without sleep. He's now back in his usual range of 185 pounds, with no apparent health conse- quences. "So far, I've felt absolutely nothing,", Bale said. "When I was down there, obviously, I was very weak. I couldn't run or anything like that. Everything was very slow. I was in slow-mo. But I didn't actually feel bad. I felt very serene all the time. I felt very comfortable and calm. "I felt bad when I was putting on weight for 'Bat- man.' That was a little too much strain on my heart, I believe. And that is the thing I will never repeat again, doing any of those extremes. If you're going to do it, take a bit more time about it. Don't rush those things, because your body just can't take that pressure." After "Batman Begins," Bale filmed a supporting role in Colin Farrell's upcoming "The New World," director Terrence Malick's drama of 17th cen- tury colonial America. Bale also shot the low-budget crime tale "Harsh Times" and provides the voice of the title character in the .English-language version of the Japanese animated adventure "Howl's Moving Castle," opening just days before "Batman Begins." Bale counts on the luster of "Batman Begins" to give him clout on independent movies he wants to do. "If I can kill two birds with one stone by having made this movie, which I believe is a very good movie, then get to go and make smaller movies because 'Christian Bale' may mean something now, whereas it never meant anything before, then great," Bale said. "Before, it was always the directors wanted me, but the financiers were saying, 'No way are you touching that guy.' Maybe they'll say, 'Yeah, wait, we'll touch him this time. We'll use him.' If I can help to get those movies made, then I'll feel like this was really a double whammy of success." - 40OOM U( /-3 ab-Rod 4 4 Ar am alMM 0 glm,4 SEIgo -.

There are no bridges between the house and the Gulf of Meidco and the deep water canal 'offers a handy place to dock the familyboat. Listed with Lara Nelson of Richard Bradway & Associ-. ates, the Gibbs Street home is a hidden treasure, tucked away behind native-friendly landscaping well into Gibbs Street, far off the beaten path, but. on the island of Venice and close to the Venice yacht Club, the South Jetty and all that the island part of Venice has to offer. Built in 1963, the 1,853- square-foot house has had several upgrades over the years, including the enclos- ure of a former Florida room as an extra large family room at the back of the house. Florida rooms were part of every 1960s house, serving as combination sun and family rooms. A flag stone floor adds to the upbeat yet casual feel of that space, which enjoys wonderful canal and waterway views. There is terrazzo flooring throughout most of the rest of the house. Also upgraded in recent years was the kitchen, which has an open counter along one side that facilitates enter- taining as well as serving' food and clearing dishes from the nearby dining and familyiv areas. The kitchen, which has newer appliances, measures nearly 9 by 18 feet and the former Florida room, now a family room, measures in excess of 25 by 12 feet. The dining space is part of the great room. The present : PHOTO COLIRTES' OF LARA NELSON The house is located near the midpoint of the second canal south of the Intracoastal waterway. Patios, dock space and a bed of pineapples make for an enchanting backyard space. occupant easily fit two full-sized sofas and other large furniture in the space. With three full bedrooms and ,a den plus a tiny private office with its own out- side entrance, there is room for a family or a home-based business. Eight ceiling fans augment the home's built-hin air conditioning system. The attached two-car garage is over- sized with built-in storage and workshop space. Native-friendly landscaping that frames house and dock is the icing on die cake. There are even several pineapples ripening in the backyard near the dock. Listed for $1,460,000, die house can be seen by appointment. It is located at 917 Gibbs St., offTarpon Center Drive on the island of Venice. Take the Esplanade north to Tarpon Center Drive.

I just returned from a trip to the mountains and was surprised to find that my GMC pickup occasionally blows a cloud of smoke after I use a lower gear on steep inclines. It also produces a much :smaller but noticeable puff of smoke upon starting, after it's already warm. How serious is this? It has 134,000 miles and other than this, runs perfectly. -Mike Chavez, Prunedale, Calif. A. Mike, it-sounds as though your pickup's engine is suffering from worn/faulty valve gtfide seals and/or worn valve guides. The upper (tip) end of the 'each valve is located in'an oilbadth envi- ronment and die opposite (head) end is subject to reduced pressure (vacuum). Intake valves are the greatest oil-consum- ing offender, although the flow of exhaust :gases past the valve neck can draw oil down an exhaust valve guide/stem as well. Besides causing occasional smoking, faulty valve guides and seals can allow carbon buildup on the neck of the valve, reducing airflow and engine performance. Depending on the engine type, a variety of rubber seals might be used to ;regulate oil passage into the valve stem/valve guide region and, if dried, cracked or faulty, oil consumption can ' JIM'S DRIVEWAY ':.(KRT) -Jim's Driveway is capsules of Jim Mateja's auto reviews. 2005 HONDA CR-V SE 4WD: Base price: $25,050; Engine: 2.4-liter, 160-h.p. 4-cylinder; Fuel economy: 22 m.p.g. city/27 highway.

A worn valve guide allows rocking of the valve stem and stresses the seal, acceler- ating leakage. Smoking during or just after a long period of deceler- ation is common as intake mani- fold vacuum is at its greatest and there is little or no fuel present in the combustion chambers to dilute the oil. It's possible on many engines to renew the valve guide seals without removing the cylinder heads. Before doing so I'd run a compression test to determine if the engine is worthy of a midlife repair of this moderate magnitude, and consider renewing the timing chain and gears at the same time. Ifyou've changed the oil regularly and have never overheat- ed the engine, another 100,000 miles of service might be possible before engine renewal or rebuild. Renewing and/or upgrading the seals involves disengaging/remov- ing each valve's keeper and spring, while being sure not to allow the valve to fall into the cylinder. This can be accomplished by bringing the related piston to the top of its travel and pressurizing the combus- tion chamber with air. A length of limp rope also might be inserted into the spark plug hole, filling -the combustion chamber. Depending on the vintage of your cylinder heads, it might be possible to upgrade or supplement the original seal design to help compensate for moderately worn valve guides.
