All the way from Portland in a 60s-style

Tramonto Vista Park Design

challenged by new group

Portland, Ore., residents Ben Rozsa and Matt Moorsehead have been cruising around town in this brightly painted van. The boys
are visiting Rozsa's grandparents, Dave and Lynn Green.

It isn't ghosts from
Woodstock driving through
Venice in a van painted in
psychedelic colors. Instead,
it's Dave and Lynn Green's
grandson, Ben Rozsa, and his
friend Matt Moorsehead of
Portland, Ore.
Rozsa and Moorsehead,
both 20, said they took the
scenic route to Florida. They
have traveled and slept in the
1975 Volkswagen van for the
past two and a half months
after receiving the Greens'
invitation to visit.
"She (Lynn) said I was wel-
come to stay as long as I
wanted and to bring a friend.
We started for Florida the
next week," Rozsa said.
Leaving their jobs in

Portland, they took the
opportunity to see many
sights along the way.
"We stopped at the Grand
Canyon and then went down
to Mexico to see Matt's grand-
parents," Rozsa said.
They then headed to Baja,,
Calif., to visit friends before
turning the van toward
Florida.
"We really started living in
the van at that point," Rozsa
said.
Dressed in tie-dye shirts
and sporting long, curly hair,
the boys look like throwbacks
from the hippie generation.
Lynn had been forewarned
about the van, but she had no
idea of its range of colors.
"My grandmother just
stood there and gasped with
wide eyes when she saw it,"
Rozsa said. "Then she

laughed."
The Greens were afraid
Venice wouldn't allow the
boys to park the van on the
streets. But that hasn't been
an issue.
In addition to the psyche-
delic paint, soulful love say-
ings are etched around the
outside of the van.
"'Make hunnmmus, not war,'
is my, favorite saying,"
Moorsehead said.
Hummus is a vegetarian
staple made of chickpeas. It's
the type of food the two live
on when they are short on
funds.
The inside walls of the van
are decorated with auto-
graphs from friends they've
met along the way. The fur-
nishings bunk beds and
tie-dye curtains look like
they were taken straight out

of the 60s.
Lessons in life
Traveling cross country in
a van is not without its perils.
"If you ever get the chance
to go to El Paso, Texas, don't,"
Rozsa said.
They broke down on a hot
day in El Paso in an area
where their cell phones didn't
work.
"We rode our bikes for
miles until we found a
mechanic willing to repair the
van," he said.
Showers are also a prob-
lem, since they sleep in the
van and not in motels.
"Matt asked a maid once if
we could use the shower in an
empty motel room," Rozsa
said. "You have to be pretty

"Venice 4 Positive Future"
is the name of a new group of
Venice citizens who intend to
make their voice and views
heard by the city council.
Their representatives
made a presentation at Tues-
day's council meeting which
included an impassioned
plea that, council reconsider
its design plans for Tramonto
Vista Park.
"Venice needs to recognize
the youth and young families
among its citizens," said Jason
Weaver, chairman of the
group. "We are asking council
to revisit its plans to make
Tramonto Vista a passive
park, and to incorporate
more family-friendly .active
features into its design."
Other representatives ex-
pressing that general view in
the formal presentation were
Michelle Ryan, Larry Mc-
Laren and Michelle Ross-
Litzler. They were ,supported
by a large and enthusiastic
group of audience members
from various age groups and
walks of life.
Back to original?
Tramonto Vista. is the
name adopted by the city for
the park which will eventually
be developed at the site of the
old island wastewater treat-
ment plant on Harbor Drive,
just south of Sharky's
Restaurant.
Council member Vicki
Taylor asked the group's rep-
resentatives to be more spe-
cific about the features they
wanted to see added.
"We didn't want to over-
whelm you," said Ryan, "but
we would ask you to consider
some kind of music venue, a
water feature, a volleyball
court, playground equip-
ment, and a bike or walking
path. All of those things
would be more inviting to
young families and youth."
City Manager Marty Black

pointed out that all of those;
features had been in the orig-
inal design in some form, but:
had been deleted by council:
several months ago, after:
hearing strong public senti-
ments favoring a more "pas-:
sive" facility at that location.
Based on the public input at;
that time, it was concluded;
that the majority ofVenice cit-;
izens wanted that area to:
remain more natural and less;
developed.
"Where were you back,
then," asked one of the coun-;
cil members, "when we were;
seeking public comment and;
participation ?"
Their response was that,'
because they had to work;
during the day, attending the,
afternoon council meetings;
was not a luxury most of them;
could afford. In addition, they!
did not then have the benefits
of being an organized group?
which could get the informa-,
tion on such meetings out to;
those concerned.
Council willing
"I would be in favor of
bringing back the original
staff recommendation for dis-
cussion," said council mem-
ber John Simmonds. "This is
another example of why we
need to consider having at
least one of our meetings
each month in the evening-
so working people can
attend."
"If you just want to discuss
going back to the original
plan," said Mayor Fred
Hammett,. "we can do that at
our next meeting. But if you
want something beyond that,
such. as a waterslide which
would involve redesigning
utilities and parking, we
would have to go clear back to
the design phase. That would
take much longer.".
"We must also be aware,"
said council member John
Moore, "that the costs of
material and labor are con-

Scared students who fear
being bullied are fueling a
"growing concern" in the
Venice area, say police offi-
cers. They're forming their
own gangs to fight back.
That is the chilling reality,
officers explained to an audi-
ence of more than 100 par-
ents, students and concerned
citizens Monday evening at a
Venice High gang recognition
presentation.
"This isn't even the tip of
the iceberg," Sarasota Police
Officer K. Swatts told the
audience. "The kids who are
bullied are, either strong and
take it, or they join the gang
out of fear, or make their own
gangs to protect themselves.
That's what we see happen-
ing."
Sarasota County's gang
unit and school resource offi-
cers (police officers on school
campuses) were on hand to
make presentations and
answer questions. It was one
of the best turnouts during
the week-long annual series

A gang cannot

from Sarasota County's
gang unit

throughout the county, offi-
cials said.

Wanna-bes
Swatts named a half dozen
loosely knit Venice-area
gangs, mostly around South
Venice. They don't fit the tra-
ditional idea of what a gang
looks like, with no group ide-
ology and little or no orga-
nized criminal activity, but
they are well on their way,

MJC campus gaining ground

BY DAVE MARTIN
STAFF WRITER

Plans to get Manatee Jun-
ior College students out of the
Brickyard and into a southern
branch campus of their own
may be on firm ground by
December, say school offi-
cials.
Preliminary drawings of
the proposed campus should
be well underway by then,

now that school officials
selected a local architect this
week to plot the campus on
paper.
And if the local legislative
delegation, working with
school officials, can push the
campus high enough on the
state funding priority list,
school construction could
begin as early as this spring.

mistic Jack Dale, dean of the
southern branch. "The secret
will be getting high enough
on the priority list."
He explained that Lee
Henderson, director of the
state Division of Comnmunity
Colleges, is setting up a prior-
ity list of 10 to 12 comunutnity
colleges in Florida also seek-
ing funding this year from the
Legislature.
"Based on what funds the
Legislature provides this year,
he will fund what he can
starting at the top of the list,"

community colleges.
Dale believes the school's
chances of ranking high on
the list early this December
are good, based upon a pri-
vate meeting Monday with
State Rep. Ted Ewing, R-
Venice, State Sen. Warren
Henderson. R-Venice, and
State Rep. Tom Danson, R-
Sarasota.
"From what we heard from
Ted Ewing," said Dale, "we are
going to be high on the prior-
ity list. I'm not saying we will
be high enough to be com-
pletely funded, but I believe
Ewing will make this his top
priority."

STAFF REPORT

Either North Port or
Englewood will be the home
of the next Sarasota Memorial
Hospital Board Southern
District Seat 1 member
Democrat Sam George of
North Port and Republican
Jerry Phillips of Englewood
are the contestants to repre-
sent South County on the
board.

has a background in health
care. He has a bachelor's
degree in professional studies
with a major in biology and a
minor in chemistry and mar-
keting.
He also has a master's
degree in community health

post-graduate program in
.'pharmaceutical-related
courses.
He served as a corpsman in
the U.S. Navy and later went
to work in the pharmaceutical
industry in the areas of sales,
training, management, inter-
national training and medical
education. He won numerous
industry awards.
He believes his heath care
background will help. him

North Port and the hospital,
and speed the process of
developing a hospital in the
city.
George and his wife, Joy,
have been married for 37
years and have two daugh-
ters.
Phillips, 62 and a former

University.
Currently a real estate
appraiser, Phillips was on the
hospital board from 1994-98
as a South County representa-
tive. His wife has been a nurse
for 35 years and works at at
Venice Health Park
Outpatient Surgery Center in
Venice.
He has lived in Englewood
for 30 years.
Phillips said his experience

considers plans to expand its
presence in Venice and North
Port.

GANGS from page I A

SUN PHOTO BY.GREG GILES
Sarasota County School's Sgt. Ricky Beasley shared his experience with gang-related activity in
South Venice Monday evening at Venice High.

Swatts said. They have names
and signs and are involved
mostly in fighting and petty
vandalism, she.said.
It's a concern for residents
because gang activity is on
the rise in Sarasota County -
to the point where estab-
lished gangs are recruiting
middle and elementary
school students, even in
South County.
Law enforcement even has
its own terminology for gang
culture. Eight- to 10-year-olds
who are born into gangs are
classified as "Could Bes,"
while 10-13 year-olds who
run in the same circles are
considered "Gonna Bes."
Members and "associates" are
14-17 years old, while older,
hard-core members have typ-
ically done time.
They gave the statutory
definition of a gang as three
or more people who get
together, two of whom com-
mit crimes.
Swatts distinguished
between tagging (big, round
type, artistic graffiti) by non-
gang members and gang graf-
fiti (block, Old English-style
lettering).
"If you have these symbols
on your street signs, fences or
buildings then you have a
gang. If the graffiti is crossed
out and has other graffiti over
it, then you have two gangs,"

she said.
Beating around the bush
"Kids who join gangs are
misguided and have nobody
to bond with," explained
Sarasota County Schools
Capt. Mike Pelfrey. "They're
groups of youth who've bond-
ed together."
He dismisses attempts to
sugar-coat gang activity in the
Venice area.
Some of the known
Greater Venice gangs have not
yet committed criminal acts,
he said,-but others have been
known to victimize the elder-
ly or commit street vandal-
ism.
"If you're a 'wanna-be,'
you're gonna be a gang mem-
ber," Pelfrey said.
"Sometimes we beat
around the bush too much"
when it comes to identifying
gang activity," he said.
Bigger concerns
,'Law enforcement officials
reviewed activity by the two
leading North County gangs
and how to identify gang
members and paraphernalia.
They asked the media not
give the gangs recognition by
publishing their names or
symbols.
The bigger concern, they
said, is the more dangerous
northern gangs are making

in-roads into Sarasota
County.
They described how mem-
bers are jumped in, blessed
in, sexed in or required to
commit illegal acts as initia-
tion rites.
Sarasota County experi-
enced only two gang-related
murders in the last five years,
in 2001 and 2005, said Swatts,
but interest is growing.
Last year well over 100
cases of gang-related graffiti
were documented within city
of Sarasota limits, 20 miles
north of Venice.
"Sarasota ,is getting
creamed right now (with graf-
fiti)," Swatts said, and it's
moving down south.
Cape Coral, 44 miles south
of Venice, saw two gang-relat-
ed murders a week ago when
two individuals were assault-
ed and tortured, then driven
to a remote location and set
on fire. ,
"If you ignore it gangs will,
start rising because we didn't
do anything about it," Swatts
said.
The presentation was
taped by Sarasota County
School Board and will air on
Channel 20 at a future date.

WHAT YOU CAN DO:
* Recognize the signs. Look for colors or the lack of certain colors (typically blue or red) in your child's
wardrobe; belts, hats or T-shirts inscribed with letters, numbers or religious symbols; use of hand sig-
nals.
* Keep an open mind. Even though it may walk, talk and look like a duck, it may not be a duck, say
authorities. It's counter-intuitive, but SROs say you can't tell by gang clothing if someone is in a gang.
It's illegal activity that separates the wanna-bes and look-alikes from traditional gangs. Some kids wear
gang colors as a fashion statement. Look past the clothing for further evidence.
* Snoop. Know your child's MySpace.com account password and be sure to surf all his or her links and
review the material on them. You're the parent. It's your responsibility to know what your child's
involved in.
* Read music lyrics. Law enforcement criticized media and business outlets that pander to gangs and
fuel the culture especially the music/video industry. You can read the lyrics of gang rap and other
music by searching lyrics.com. Just type in the band and song name. You'll be surprised by what you
see.
- Let someone know. Call your nearest school resource officer or police department with any informa-
tion you may have about suspected gang activity. It could be useful to law enforcement. Remember, it
only takes one suspicious citing by a credible member of the public to trigger the tracking of a sus-
pected gang member. Call (941) 366-TIPS or your local public school and ask for the SRO.

stantly increasing the
longer we wait to move ahead
on the project, the more
expensive it's going to be."
The group was encouraged
to meet with Director of
Public Works Larry Heath as
soon as possible to review the
actual original design plan.
They need to understand
what options would still be
possible to propose within
those parameters.
Council unanimously
agreed to entertain a subse-
quent review and discussion
of that original draft, possibly
as early as their next meeting
on November 14, with the
understanding that citizens
with opinions from both sides
of the issue would be heard.

ingenious on the road when
you don't have much money."
Thanks to the Greens, the
two have earned enough for
their trip back to Oregon.
Locally, they got part-time
work in construction as well
as at the Greens' Harmony
House restaurant.
"When the boys said they
were going up North, I
reminded them it would be
very cold sleeping in the van
on the way back to Portland,"
Dave Green said.
However, the cold won't
deter the boys.
"The great thing about a
long road trip is you can meet
some really cool people on
the way," Rozsa said.
The van has led them to a
few adventures in Venice, too.
They were asked to partici-
pate in a Venice High School
parade, sing folk music at
Harmony House and ride in
the Sun Fiesta parade.
"Venice is a quiet little
town, and I will be sad to
leave," Moorsehead said.
Still, they will take a bit of
Venice with them when they
go a Mexican blanket from
a Miani, Avenue resale shop
and a few original Grateful
Dead T-shirts found under an
abandoned van in Osprey.
"Everyone has been so
great to us here," Mooreshead
said. "Even the owner of the
German Car Center of Venice
fixed our van for free because
he wanted to make sure it was
safe enough for our trip."
Both boys see college in
their future, but for now they
are content to learn their
lessons from life.

DeVilbiss for judge, Phillips for SMH board

W iTe've pointed out on several occa-,
sions how hard it is to make recom-
V rendations in judicial races
because the code of judicial ethics prevents
candidates from talking about legal issues.
- We get a break in the general election,
though, when the candidate we endorsed in
the primary makes it through to the general
election.
That happened this year when the field of
four that sought the newly created Group 21
seat on the 12th Judicial Circuit bench was
narrowed to two by the September nonparti-
san primary.
Private attorneys Preston DeVilbiss, the
former county court judge we endorsed, and
Rochelle Taylor Curley were the top two vote-
getters, and deservedly so. They face each
other in a run-off for the position.
We think either candidate would be a valu-
able addition to the bench, preferring
DeVilbiss only for his prior judicial experi-

ence.
DeVilbiss has handled thousands of cases
of all types in his many years as lawyer and
judge. He was a good judge before and we
think he has learned a lot from his return to
private practice and his efforts to get back on
the bench.
Curley was an assistant state attorney for
about eight years before leaving to enter pri-
vate practice and get civil law experience with
the ultimate goal of a judgeship. She was very
impressive, and we hope she throws her hat
into the ring again soon.
We recommend Preston DeVilbiss for
Circuit Judge Group 22.
Hospital Board
Republican Jerry Phillips of Englewood
and Democrat Sam George of North Port are
the candidates for Sarasota Memorial
Hospital Board Southern District Seat 1. (In
the interest of full disclosure, Phillips writes a

wine column for our Let's Go! section; that
isn't a factor in our recommendation.)
Phillips, a real estate appraiser, served on
the board from 1994 to 1998. The move for
more outpatient services and facilities accel-
erated then, which got the hospital more
competitive, but it was also the beginning of
the reimbursement problems that plague the
hospital today, many of which are outside of
its control.
George has a strong health-care back-
ground and contacts in the industry that
could broaden the hospital's resources. We
firmly believe that no matter how well you
do something, somebody, somewhere is
probably doing it better, and George likely
knows some of those people. We think he
has the potential to be a capable member.
We give the nod to Phillips, however,
because in our interview with George he
came off as a bit too eager to push a relation-
ship between North Port and the hospital.

North Port is certainly in need of additional
medical facilities and personnel, but we think
it could be a mistake for the city to put all its
eggs in the SMH basket, which is what
George seems to want to do.
HMA won a certificate of need for a hos-
pital a couple of years ago but lost it after
an administrative proceeding. With North
Port situated in the middle of several HMA
facilities, the company might still be inter-
ested. It's too big an issue to foreclose any
options.
George's boosterism also makes us uneasy
that he might pull his punches when criti-
cism of a hospital action is warranted, out of.
concern North Port might suffer for it.
Phillips has board experience, deeper ties
to the area and expertise in land matters (he's
also educated as a lawyer).
We recommend Jerry Phillips for Sarasota
Memorial Hospital Board Southern District
Seat.

City water hit the spot

While I .was portraying
Elvis Presley for the Sun Fiesta
Parade I was given some of
that new drink in town:
Venice "City on the Gulf"
purified drinking \water.
Rather than being, the same
oald natural spritgwaterthis
is much better, "cleansed by
our state-of-the-art reverse
osmosis technology."
It tasted like water to me,
and on a hot day it hit the
spot. You should try some -
good stuff.

The YMCA's new 55,000-
square-foot addition is mov-
ing along nicely and is still
planned to be open in
January maybe, could be
before. Mike Miller and the
folks at Waterford have really
stuck to their timetable.
This will really be a fabu-
lous facility, including indoor
racquetball courts, which we
haven't had for a long time
around here. It will have a
huge wellness area with a lot
of new equipment and a TV at
each station, too.
The "'spinning" room,
which we now have in an area
that resembles a walk-in clos-
et, will have new bikes. The
old bikes likely will go to be
part of a unique program with
free motion, which is muscle
toning.
There will be an area for
rehab and a wonderful spa
and massage area. Doesn't
that sound good?
The old building will house
Big Brothers Big Sisters, the
American Cancer Society and
Sertoma's Speech Clinic. The
Y is truly trying to build part-
nerships in the community.

By's Crack
The state department has
just given asylum to a man
seeking political freedom: He
is a Republican from Chicago.

When Sue and I were in
Naples (Collier County) for
the christening of our new
grandson, a birthday party for
our 4-year-old granddaughter
and a convention, we noticed
a couple of things we would
love to have here.
First, there are four north-
south roads, most or them six
lanes. However, getting to
those on 1-75 from Im-
mokalee and other areas
north where the workers live
is a mess, somewhat like what
has developed here.

We also liked signs that
announce what the next
street is. This makes it so
much easier to keep your
proper speed as you try to
find your way.

I hope by the timeyou read
this the girls volleyball has
won the first round of region-
al competition and the girls
golf team is on its way to a top
finish in the state.

The Sun Fiesta, put on by
Women's Sertoma, was a huge
success, raising well .more
than $30,000 for charities in
our area and scholarships for
women striving to better.
themselves.
I was surprised, however,
that the parade was the poor-
est-attended parade I can
remember. Some thought it
was the hot weather, others
that there was only one band
and a couple of floats. It may
have been the grand marshal.
The rest of the event was
packed with people and a big
success, from what I could
see. Even Friday night was a
big draw.
The bed race drew nine
entries, which was a record.
That event is a real hoot. The
Gondolier Sun team won best
theme, as the members in
their'60s' and 70s' outfits were
really fun. The bragging rights
for the fastest bed in town
belongs to the Sertoma Club
ofVenice.

Today's Ism (Paul Keating
said this about someone; I
can relate it to someone
around here): "He is simply a
shiver looking for a spine to
run up."

The Gondolier Sun is hav-
ing the fun Golden Broom
contest again this year, with
the coveted award given to-
the group that dresses up best
for Halloween.
You not only win a home-
made plague suitable for
hanging, it gives you bragging
rights and your picture in the
paper.
On Tuesday, Oct. 31,
Halloween, we would like
your group (small or large) to
come to the Gondolier Sun
building to get your picture
taken. Call Editor Bob Mudge,
207-1101, if you can't break
away and we will try to come
out to get your photo no
guarantee on that, but you
could take one and e-mail it
to us, too.
Then plan to take your kids
to the Lions Club/Venice
MainStreet parade and trick-
or-treating downtown. Line
up at 3:30 p.m., march at 4
and then hit the shops for
candy.
Have fun.

Another great Halloween
tradition is the Nokomis Fire

Who are they answerable to?

Editor:
Last month I sent a few e-mails and two letters to the school
board. Not hearing anything, I wrote Sheila Weiss, communi-
cations and community relations supervisor, and asked her
what she would recommend I do to receive answers.
This is the response I received on Oct. 4 from Ms. Weiss:
"I received your letter asking me what I recommend you do
to obtain an answer to your questions from the school board.
You may not realize it, but elected officials do not have to
respond to a citizen's letters/e-mails. The school district must
respond to public information requests, but only for docu-
ments, reports, etc., that we produce. This does not include
opinions."
I don't recall these "officials" saying this when they were run-
ning for office. Could this apply to all our elected representa-
tives in a government by and for the people? Once elected, they
dofft have to respond to constituents, the taxpayers who pay
their nice salaries and benefits? Or do they pick and choose
those they may want to respond to? What about the press?
Did somebody say reforms are needed in this school dis-
trict? Did somebody say better communications must take
place to foster better community-taxpayer relations?
In light of all that has taken place recently in regard to this
school district while recalling all the campaign promises,
maybe all we can expect insofar as reforms would be the old
saying, "the more things change, the more things stay the
same."

Ready to sign
on with CQG
Editor:
C.J. Fishman, chairman of
Citizens for Quality Gov-
ernment, stated in 2005 that his
organization takes no stand on
any issues. Yet this year the CQG
moved its annual meeting back
one days it could have it on the
day before the Sarasota County
Commission held its notorious
meeting on whether to put a
rezoning and annexation

amendment on the ballot.
I have no problem with the
CQG taking a stand on issues.
Where I take exception is in
Fishman's constant fictional
statements about what the CQG
does and doesn't do like his
recently published letter, in
which he stated the CQG does-
n't dominate city politics.
I've been watching politics
closely in this town for the last
six years. For Fishman to -say
his organization doesn't dom-
inate Venice politics is ludi-

crous.
Fishman stated in.his letter
that anyone could join the
CQG. So after talking with Sue
Lang and Herb Levine, I gave
Fishman a call and left a mes-
sage on his answering ma-
chine. I told him that all three
of us wanted to join and that
this was not a crank call.
The three of us were and

Finds hope for the
youth of tomorrow
Editor:
Recently I have noticed the
many pictures in the sports
section of the paper showing
young men receiving various
kinds of awards.
What struck me as I read
the articles and studied the
pictures was a realization that
I was seeing a group of fine-
looking young men. Each was
dressed neatly in a shirt and
tie. Their hair was cut in a pro-
fessional style, which was
quite becoming of a young
man ready to strike out on his

own in the world of business.
It was reassuring to see
that there are many young
people who still take pride in
the way they present them-
selves. Young people mani-
festing a. smile of self-confi-
dence give me hope that all is
not lost after all.
Rememberingthat the youth
are our future and seeing pic-
tures such as you've shown
recently, reaffirms this expecta-
tion of our young people.
Thank you for caring
enough to show the youth of
our community at its best.

Conservatives?
Don't think so
Editor:
Recently a columnist
referred to "the conservative
group" in Washington who
are running things. Either he
was ignoring the facts or he
was trying to distort conserv-
ative principles.
Many people, at all levels,
call themselves conservatives
but act and vote like liberals.
In this time of more spending,
more waste, more taxes, more
wars, more government,
more regulation and more
promises and talking, no one
can call it conservative.
Common sense and hon-
esty are lost in governments
that are out of our control.

Charter changes best left unmade

vs

ED MARTIN

There are four proposed
Venice charter questions on
the ballot. Here is how I see
them.
First, as a citizen, I want to
thank the citizens who served
on the charter review com-
mittee: Greg Roberts, chair;
Jim Leis, Diana Miers, Greg
Shanika and Jean Trammell.
Their meetings often did not
attract many participants or
observers, but it.was through
no fault of theirs.
Despite my appreciation
for their efforts, I think "No" is
the way to vote on. all four,
although some are more
strongly felt than others.
Question (Amendment) 1
would eliminate the require-
ment that the city manager
obtain the advice and con-
sent of city council in order to
suspend or remove the fire
chief and police chief.
On the "pro" side, the city
manager certainly is the key
player in hiring and supervis-
ing those officials, so one
could say let him dismiss
them as well.
I suggest "No" because I
believe in checks and bal-
ances in government leg-
islative, executive and judi-
cial. The city manager is exec-
utive. The council is legisla-
tive elected and therefore
responsible to the voters.

As one who has worked for
and served on boards and for
a congressional committee, it
seems unlikely that any city
manager or CEO would fire
such people without being
sure his or her bosses agree.
Therefore, this amendment is
essentially moot but symboli-
cally increases the city man-
ager's power, a centralization
not necessary or desirable.
Amendment 2 would
weaken the position of
finance director from a char-
ter officer serving at the plea-
sure of council (as do the city
clerk, attorney and manager)
to a department head super-
vised by the city manager.
Council member John
Moore does not favor this
change and my conversation
with him some time ago leads
me to believe it is because of
his recognition of the value of
checks and balances. Moore
was a judge and' had more
opportunity to appreciate
that issue than other council
or committee members.
The amendment would
also eliminate the list of the
duties of the finance director
-'a list that now clearly indi-
cates the director's role. Greg
Shanika reluctantly gave up
his opposition to this amend-
ment, seemingly to achieve a
consensus, an understand-
able' but perhaps "too nice"
decision.
Corporate America is
going in the opposite direc-
tion' from this amendment.
The law and practice is to
reduce undue influence on
the chief financial officers
and auditors by the CEO.
Auditors now report to the
boards that represent share-
holders and the law holds
board members responsible
for accurate financial presen-

stations.
Finally, I have spoken with
the present and past finance
directors, and neither wanted
to inject himself into the
political decision. Both said
they thought either system
could work.
I had the distinct feeling -
my interpretation that the
past director felt there were
times when his indepen-
dence kept a. previous city
manager from actions he did
not feel would have been
appropriate.
A good city manager can
be followed by a poor one; we
have seen both here. Charter
officer status offers checks
and balances and stability.
Question 3 provides that
when filling a vacancy in the
office of mayor, the person
elected shall fill a three-year
term.
The present charter calls
for an election to finish the
term of the prior mayor. Fred
Hammett, serving as mayor
because Dean Calamaras
resigned, was unopposed and
will serve until next Nov-
ember, when he can run for a
three-year term.
The "pro" on this issue is
that if the interim mayor
could. be elected for three
years in the first place, it
would save an election cam-
paign after one year.
At first I thought this might
be reasonable, but there is
really nothing lost by the one-
year election. In fact, it gives
the public a chance to see
how the mayor performs;
then, if he or she runs for a
three-year term, the voters
have a track record to evalu-
ate.
At present, for example,
Mayor Hammett has never
won a contested election. He

lost a council race, was
appointed to council to fill a
vacancy, was appointed inter-
im mayor and ran unop-
posed. Let's see how he does.
Question 4 is perhaps the
easiest "No." It continues a
three consecutive terms (a
maximum of nine years) limit
as mayor or council member.
After 'sitting out a year a per-
son can run again.
The joker in this amend-
ment is that a mayor can run
immediately for council or
vice versa, so the same person
could be in office 18 years
without a break.
I would say, "Give me a
break." Eighteen years is too
much for anyone to be in
office.
An argument can be that
the voters have to elect this
person. If the playing field
was level, that might be rea-
sonable but the playing field
is not level.
Just say "No" again.

There are angels all over Venice

Looking out. In taking my
walker for a walk, a police car
pulled up beside me on Capri
and wanted to know if I was
OK I said yes, I'm just out for
my walk. In questioning me,
the officer wanted my name
and where I lived, and I asked
him why he was questioning
me. He said someone called
and thought I was having a
problem. One of my angels was
looking out after me, I know. I
think they saw me on the
bench resting and thought I
was ill. And then I asked him if I
was going to get a ticket for
going too fast or too slow. I
don't think he really appreciat-
ed my sense of humor. But this
is in regards to saying thanks.
There are many good people in
Venice and also the police
department. I'm OK and I real-'
ly appreciate the people that
called, and I've had other peo-,
ple stop and ask me if I'm OK,
which I'm very grateful to the

Lord that, yes, people are look-
ing out. So, God bless.
No-win situation. I was call-
ing about the recent drop in oil
prices and prices at the pump.
Now I hear that the American
oil producers and OPEC are
going to cut production
because there is a surplus of
gasoline. So what does that tell
me? What does that tell any-
body who took Economics
101? That tells me that no mat-
ter what, as long as we depend
on our enemies for fuel, the
price is always going to stay up.
When is this arrogant country
going to learn? If everyone in
this country had a hybrid and
everyone was getting excellent
gas mileage, they wbuld have
cut production to a fraction of
what it is right now. The gas
would be $9.a gallon. We will
never win as long aswe depend
on our enemies for fuel.
When will our arrogant
leaders learn?

BY STEVENJ. SMITH
STAFF WRITER

One plan has struck out,
but another is swinging for
the fences.
Discussions over the week-
end between representatives
from the Cincinnati Reds and
^ the Sarasota Agricultural Fair
' Association failed to result in
[ a plan to solve their acreage
issues, according to Jeff
, Maultsby, Reds director of
Florida operations.
Of the 100 acres available
: at the fairgrounds on
L Fruitville Road in Sarasota,
r the Reds said they needed 50
for their new spring training
facility. The fair association
needed 40 acres, while an
additional 30 was needed for
parking.
Last Friday, fair association
president Rory Martin was
urged by a committee of
Sarasota city, county and
Reds officials to look into
ways the fair might give up
some acreage to make the
deal happen. By Monday,
hopes for that prospect had
dimmed, Maultsby said.
Unbowed, the committee
headed by Sarasota City
Commissioner Lou Ann
Palmer and County Com-
missioner Shannon Staub
immediately plunged into
exploring other options.
They came up with two.
The first option was to
build a new stadium at 12th
Street and Tuttle Avenue,
across from the current Ed
Smith Stadium. The second
was to demolish and rebuild
Ed Smith Stadium on the
same site, but reposition it to
better maximize the land it
sits on.
"I think the group's No. 1
scenario at this point would
- be to keep old Ed and build

new Ed across 12th Street,"
Staub said.
Blessing?
Staub added that losing
the fairgrounds as a potential
site for the new stadium
might be something of a
blessing in disguise.
She said the armory, the
driver license facility and the
Babe Ruth complex would all
require relocation. Between
the logistics of dealing with
those groups and all the costs
the county would have to
shoulder, Staub added, the
other options looked a lot
more attractive.
The new site also could
accommodate hotel, retail
and restaurants, Staub said,
adding that the Reds have
expressed a great interest in
those pluses. Many residents
in the area also have
expressed their approval of
the idea.
"This scenario, if we could
do it keep old Ed and put
new Ed across 12th Street -
the neighbors would not be
impacted at all," Staub said.
Staff will spend this week
looking into taking the neces-
sary steps to make this idea a
reality.
For example, to avoid a
potential conflict with the
Reds' schedule, the Ringling
Redskins youth football
league might need to be relo-
cated to another site at the
Newtown Estates, where the
land is publicly owned.
"Next week when we meet,
if we find the Newtown site
can take the Ringling
Redskins and we have a ball-
park figure, then we're off and
running," Staub said.

County doesn't want veto power County signs up new land agents

Reds stadium/fairgrounds

deal appears dead

BY ANNE KLOCKENKEMPER
STAFF WRITER

Call it clearing the air.
The main thing Venice and
North Port have feared since
Sarasota County asked for a
moratorium on annexation
was that the county wanted
the power to veto municipal
planning decisions. But the
veto's off the table for now.
That was the major piece
of information that came out
of Monday's meeting
between county staff and city
representatives.
LarryArnold, county direc-
tor of community services
and special projects, is work-
ing with North Port. He said
the real reason for the coun-
ty's concern wasn't an issue of
control. Rather, it's to make
sure there. is "sustainability"
- ensuring there is enough
transportation, water and
sewer service and funding for
all necessary aspects when an
annexation occurs.
"The county wants to
know what the cities are going
to do in the future," he said.
"So if the cities want to annex
an area, the county can look
at it early. If we continue to
develop' in the way we have
been for the past decade, it
won't work, because that's
basically urban sprawl."
Arnold said that when
sprawl happens, communi-
ties are too oil- and: trans-
portation-dependent, the
environment is harmed and
people become isolated and
have less civic involvement.
The county's stance is that
the location, intensity, type
and timing of development
must be shared in order to
avoid duplication, and so
municipalities can share ser-
vices.
"We have to work regional-
ly," Arnold continued. "We
need to work for a common
objective and for a common
goal."

CORRESPONDENT

Progress
North Port City Manager
Steve Crowell thought
Monday's meeting was "a pro-
ductive discussion."
"There was a lot of infor-
mation shared," he said.
"Some progress was made.
The big thing is that the veto's
off, and that helped identify
what the issues are."
Venice City Manager Marty
Black said he thought the city
and county made "substantial
progress" in Monday's meet-
ing, further defining the geo-
graphical boundary within
which Venice would consider
annexation petitions.
"We're saying we wouldn't
consider areas beyond that,"
he said. "That's not to say
those areas would come in."
The two entities also
agreed they would talk about
who should provide services
where, not just based on city
boundaries. The county gave
a firm commitment to pro-1
viding water and sewer ser-
vices to Nokomis and South
Venice, which Black said
would allow Venice to com-
plement the county's efforts
instead of competing with
them.
"I remain very optimistic,"
he said.
. Representatives from both
North Port and Venice will
meet with county officials
beginning at 9 a.m. on
Thursday at the Venice
Community Center for fur-
ther discussion.

Sarasota County Com-
missioners ratified contracts
with two nonprofit land
acquisition and management
organizations uesday.
The Sarasota Conservation
Foundation in Osprey and the
Trust for Public Land, a nation-
al organization with headquar-
ters in San Francisco were
awarded three-year contracts
to serve as the county's agent in
acquiring land for n6ighbor-
hood parks and preservation.
The contracts are for $1.5 mil-
lion for each.
The two were selected
from among five organiza-
tions that responded to a
request for proposal in
September, when the six-year
contract with The Nature
Conservancy expired. TNC
opted not to submit apropos-
al, but some of its staff is
expected to work with the
foundation as subcontrac-
tors.
Acquisition of land to be
preserved will be the focus of
the foundation. The trust will
focus on acquiring parkland.

Seeing beyond money

Environmentally Sensitive
Lands Protection Program
has gained considerable pub-
lic attention.
Creation of neighborhood
parks was added by the refer-
endum to the earlier pro-
gram. It has intensified acqui-
sition activity in the county.
Up the creeks
The process is lengthy and
complicated.
Nomination of a prospec-
tive site is the first step. Next,
one of the agents contacts the
landowner. Two independent
appraisers are then engaged
to negotiate a price after the
site has been thoroughly
investigated by surveyors and
other land specialists.
If negotiations are success-
ful, the agent and the owner
will sign an option agreement
to buy. When county staff and
the agent agree that all crite-
ria have been met, the pro-
posed acquisition is forward-
ed to the commissioners.
Including negotiations, the
due diligence process con-
sumes about eight weeks.
Most:of the preserved envi-
ronmentally sensitive land
lies south of Laurel Road,
according to Brooke Elias,
with the county Enviro-
nmental Services depart-
ment.

Trio shoots 75 to pace Venice High girls golfers at Class 2A State

Finals in Port St. Lucie

STAFF REPORT

It was cold. It was windy.
The Venice High girls golf
team responded in a big way
on the first day of the Class 2A
State Finals at The Saints Golf
Course in Port St. Lucie.
The Lady Indians sit in sec-
ond place at the halfway
point, getting outstanding
performances front three girls
- Megan Clipse, Casey
Kennedy and Crystal Smith.
After day one, Venice had a
team score of 313. Defending
state champion Lake Howell
was leading with a scintillat-
ing 297. Lake Mary was sitting
in third at 316. There are 16
schools competing in the
tournament.
"We did very well," said
Lady Indian coach Larry

Sandburg. "The wind was
tough more than 20 miles
per hour. On the back side, it
really started kicking."
Clipse, the senior captain,
had the best 18 hole score of
her career with a 75.
"She putted very well,"
Sandburg said. "She had three
or four birdies."
The Lady Indians' pair of
super sophomores -
Kennedy and Smith also
carded 75s.
Venice's fourth score came
from Casey's older sister
Katie, who scored an 88. She
is a junior.
The fifth VHS golfer,
Helene Gagliardi, came in
with a 95.
"She actually didn't play
that bad," Sandburg said.
"She had three birdies. The

sand traps killed her."
Action continues
Wednesday morning at The
Saints. The Venice girls begin
teeing off at 9:30 a.m.
"I hope we can keep it up,"
Sandburg said. "The effort
has been phenomenal. :If we
get beat, we'll get beat on tal-
ent, not effort."
The Venice girls qualified
for the State Finals by win-
ning the Region Tournament
in Bradenton. The Lady
Indians qualified for the.
regional by winning the
District Tournament the week
prior in Deep Creek.
This is the second straight
year at the State Finals for the
VHS girls. Last year they
placed seventh out of 16 in
Vero Beach.

Halbert wants another title

BY CLAUDE LEWIS
SPORTS EDITOR

Nickie Halbert and the
Venice High volleyballers
have a little something to
prove this season.
Led by Class 5A Player of
the Year Dana Dumas last
year, the Lady Indians buzzed
to the State Championship.
Dumas is -now playing at
Georgetown, leaving the rest
of the girls to defend.
"Last year, all we heard was
Dana carrying our team," said
Halbert, a junior All-State set-
ter. "They said we were a one
player team. We have to prove
it wasn't a fluke."
Venice has done a pretty
good job doing that so far.
The Lady Indians are ranked
No. 3 in 5A and will take a fine
25-4 record .into Saturday's
regional semifinal against
Plant High.
To get back to The
Lakeland Center for the state
semifinals and finals will take
above and beyond the call of
duty for all the Lady Indians,
however.
"We'll have to fight and
work for it," Halbert said. "We
did well in the district tourna-
ment. We were focused. We
set a goal and we accom-
plished it. Now we have to do
it for regionals."
The biggest match of the
season is at hand against
Plant, the top ranked school
in 5A. The region semifinal
will be at 2 p.m. Saturday at
the Teepee.

Venice lost to Plant in three
straight games a few weeks
ago in the finals of the Tampa
bay Invitational.
"That tournament, the
way we

Halbert b

playing as a
team. I thought back to last
year."
Venice lost to Plant in a
tournament in 2005 but came
back to upset the in five
games in the region semifinal
played in Tampa.
Halbert is happy this year's
rematch will be played in
Venice. lost to Plant in a
"The whole community
will be there watching us,"
she said. "They mean soa
much to us. We try to zone
them out and concentrate
during the match, but we
know they're there."
Halbert believes this team
is even closer than last year's.
"We're all together every
day," she said. "There is a lot
of bonding. We have sleep-
overs. We just stayed at Taylor
Capasso's house. She lives
near coach (Brian) Wheatley.
We toilet papered his house.
Later in the night, coach
Wheatleycame backoverand
toilet papered our cars."y
toilet papered our cars."

The whole team is on the
same page. The players all get
along. They're all good stu-
dents and try to be the best
they can be.
"Coach Wheatley stresses
the three Cs classroom,
community and court,"
Halbert said.
Halbert has worked hard to
continue improving her
game.
"Dana leaving made me
more consistent," Halbert
said. "With new hitters, I have
to concentrate more on what
they need. My footwork is
better."
Hopefully, it will all add up
to another trip to Lakeland.

VENICE HIGH

SCHOOL'S

I~ W

:.. Boca .Ciega High has had
;some good football team.
over the years, but volleyball
has never been the St.
Petersburg school's forte.
This year was only the sec-
ond time the Lady Pirates
have made the regional tour-
nament in volleyball.
Venice was only too happy
to close the door on "Bogie's"
season.
The Lady Indians, ranked
No. 3 in Class 5A, swept the
star-struck Lady Pirates, 25-6,
25-16, 25-14, Tuesday night at
the Teepee.
"We haven't been to the
regional in 10 to 12 years,"
said Boca Ciega coach Lissa
Bartle. "Our girls got a chance
to see what it's all about. We
watched them and saw what
a state caliber team does."
Venice (25-4) advances to
the region semifinals against
No. 1 ranked Tampa-Plant.
The match will be at 2 p.m.
Saturday at 1 Indian Ave.
Venice lost to Plant earlier
in the season in the finals of
the Tampa Bay Invitational.
Touted Plant (24-2) moved
to the semifinals via a 25-20,
25-18,25-17 victory over Palm
Harbor University.
Venice drained any sus-
pense early in Tuesday's
match, jumping out to an 11-
0 victory over Boca Ciega (11-
14) in the first game. Dorothy

Rahal was at the service stripe
during the run. Kaylee Ream
had a couple of big kills along
with Casev Taylor.
Ream and Nickie-'Halbert
also had big service runs i
game one. Outside hitter
Natalie Gaudreau got her kill
swing warmed up, and it was
lights out for the Lady Pirates.
Game two saw Gaudreau
fire up for five more kills.
Middle hitter Ashley Graf
then got into the act at the net
with a couple of spikes.
Venice's other middle -
Casie Richards got into
the flow in game three.
Gaudreau finished with
nine kills. Graf had four and
Ream three.
Ream, Halbert and Rahal
finished with five service aces
apiece.
On the down side, Venice
was a bit sloppy with 13 ser-
vice errors.
However, Boca Ciega had
even more.
"I lost count after a while,"
Bartle said. "It was nerves.
Five of our players are under-
classmen. I hope they learn
from this. We'll also get our 6-
3 hitter back."
Venice seniors Gaudreau
and Graf don't have the luxury
of waiting until next year.
Now is the time.
There will be a special tail-
gate party beginning at 11:30
a.m. Saturday in the parking
lot outside the north gym.
There will be food and drink.

f everyone were to give less than an
hour of their time donating blood
three times a year, there would be no blood
shortages. The need for blood is at an all-
time high due to medical advances and
the fact that people are living longer,'and.
there's even more of a shortage in our area
due to the population growth.
Unfortunately, of the approximately 60
percent of people eligible to donate blood.
statistics show that only five percent do.
In less than an hour, people can donate a
unit of blood and save the lives of three
people.

SAFETY CONCFRNAS
If you have concerns about the safety
of blood supplies or about giving blood,
rest assured there are many safeguards in
place. Blood supplies are carefully screened
and scrutinized. The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration considers blood a "biologic" (similar to a drug) and closely regulates it
to ensure safety of the supply. The American Association of Blood Banks also publishes
strict guidelines for safe transfusions, which its members must follow.
Every pint of blood collected by Florida's Blood Centers undergoes 18 hours of
processing, testing and labeling. Each pint goes through 12 screening tests before
being transfused.
*All potential donors are given an opportunity to indicate if their blood may be
unsafe for any reason, and previous donation records and lists of ineligible donors
are checked. Lab tests identify, blood that might transmit diseases. People are not
allowed to donate blood if their lab rests or questionnaires reveal they may be at
high risk for certain diseases.
*Only sterile equipment is used. The needle used to draw blood from your vein has
never been used before, and it is thrown away right after it is used. Donors cannot
get hepatitis, AIDS, or other infections or diseases from giving blood. Reactions *
from donating are rare and are minor when they do happen.
If you are healthy, weigh at least 110 pounds and are older than 17, you can donate a
unit of blood without harm. A unit is a very small part of your total blood volume, and
your body replaces the lost fluid within a day. Your bone marrow replaces all of the blood
cells within two weeks.

* 'X.'v J 'nF i l'l .i i
People donate blood for different reasons some do it for friends, family members, or
even themselves. Others volunteer to help people they don't even know. There are close
to a dozen types of patients that have a dire need for blood including: accident victims.
cancer patients, open heart surgery patients, burn victims, liver transplant patients, hip
or knee replacement patients, premature babies and those suffering from complications
of Sickle-cell anemia.
Consider giving this important gift of life and help our community overcome blood
shortages. Call the Florida's Blood Center-Venice at 492-9202 or stop by the center
located at 333 S. Tamiami Trail, Suite 169, Venice, Florida.

BLOOD DONATION
FACTS

*Your one unit of blood donation can
save the lives of up to three people in
your community.
Every three seconds an American needs
a pint of blood.
*Approximately 60o of the population
is eligible to donate blood, but only 500
do.
You can donate blood even' eight
weeks up to six times a year.
Donating blood takes less than an hour
and in that time, you could be saving
three lives.
*If everyone committed to donating
' blood three times a year, there would be
no blood shortages.
Your blood donation is usually
transfused to a patient within -2 hours.
Red blood cells have a shelf life of only
42 days and platelets only five days
The blood supply needs to be
constantly replenished.
*Our community blood supply is
severely reduced due to population
growth, longer life spans and advances
in medicine.
*At least 60"u of Sarasota Counnr's
population will need blood at some
point in their lives.
Florida's Blood Center-Venice is
Venice's only blood center and the sole
provider of blood and blood products
to Venice Regional Medical Center.
Donating blood is giving to life one
of the most meaningful gifts of all.
In addition to saving other's lives, you
will personally benefit from donating
blood in receiving a mini-physical.
cholesterol screening, testing for
infections, and the chance to relax for
awhile!

Massachusetts to New Mexico, this
was a challenging year for pumpkin
growers. Excessive spring rains
caused many growers to replant.
Despite their efforts, some pump-
kins rotted in the fields while others
succumbed to fungus. In other
areas of the U.S., like Michigan,
Ohio and North Carolina, pump-
kins flourished.
Still, local pumpkin festivals are
in full swing- minus a few pump-
kins.
"We didn't get some of our nor-
mal items," said Debra Belt, chair-
woman of the Grace United
Methodist Church Pumpkin Patch.
"One thing we've always given the
kids that come from the schools is
\ a mini pumpkin to take home.
\ We couldn't do that this year
because the growing season
wasn't good," she said.

said.
The Nokomis Volumteer Fire
Department was expected to get it's
full order from Greensboro, N.C.
"They indicated everything was
fine with the pumpkins," said Lt.
Jon Fullerton.
Mark Raye with Hunsader Farms
of Bradenton said they had a great
supply of pumpkins for the festival
and corn maze thanks to Ranseyer
Farms in Wooster, Ohio.
"These are some of the nicest
looking pumpkins we've had," Raye
said. "Ranseyer obviously had a
really good growing season."
Raye said though they plant a
few pumpkins to decorate their
farm market, Florida really isn't a
pumpkin-growing state.
"It's too hot and too wer," he said.
"Though we could use a little rain
for the corn maze."
So with just a week left before the
"Great Pumpkin's" anticipated visit,
local and area festivals are stocked
with pumpkins for decorating, carv-
ing and lighting in preparation for
Halloween.

Recently a man named Mr.
Pwok called. He carefully
spelled his name, saying, "P as
in pneumonia. W as in write.
0 as in oppossum, K as in
knife." After that I knew how
to spell his name perfectly.;
This reminds me to men-
tion that when I was in
Boston I happened to see on
television the National
Spelling Bee.
I was not pleased that the
National Spelling included
words in French. And not
common ones we use, such
as c'est le guerre. The winner
won with a French word, as
she studies French. There was
one word in German.
It was not the International
Spelling Bee. I say, let all the
words be English ones! There.
I feel better now.
I am not very good speller
as I didn't pay attention in
grammar school. I didn't like
school until I arrived at col-
lege and liked it so very much.
But I didn't have a course in
spelling in college.
One day I hope to correct
this. As someone who writes,
one would think I would be a
good speller. Of course, that
might hurt the feelings of any
editor who is forced to go over
what I write as he or she
might not be able to use a
nice red pen if I spell every-
thing correctly. And editors, I
am told, like t9 use red pens.
, (Or the computer equivalent.
As I recently received an e'"
mail in red (!), I presume any-
thing is possible.)
But spelling can be tricky.
Do you put two "ll"s in travel
if you have traveled very far? I

IAll New
SGalleria

find schedule hard to remem-
ber how to spell unless I pro-
nounce as they do in
England, which is "shed-u-l."
That helps.
The fact that we mispro-
nounce words doesn't help.
How often one hears Innernet
and visitor. Then there is the
horrible "gonna," which has
almost replaced the phrase
"going to," even by public
speakers.
I will admit that English,
unlike Italian, is not a lan-
guage where every word is
pronounced as it is spelled.
We have silent letters. We
have soft and hard, as they are
called, pronunciations for
some letters.
We just need to learn the
rules. And to speak clearly,
which while I'm going on I
might as well mention that a
trend of not speaking clearly
has developed. Or loudly
enough, especially on the
telephone unless the per-
son is on a cell phone in a
public place.
Spelling. One day I will
make the time to improve
mine. My father could spell
any word. He often found
mistakes in printed works. He
enjoyed words, did crossword
puzzles, read the dictionary
for enjoyment and was sad-
dened when the rules of
English grammar were not
followed.
I once ask him where he
learned all this. His answer:
"The sisters taught me in
grammar school."

Family launches its homemade dream

BY RITA JUHASZ
SUN CORRESPONDENT

Mike and Missy Lamb of
Englewood had a dream
inspired by a quote from Arch
Davis: "Never to land on an
island from a boat of one's
own building is to miss one of
life's great moments."
What they thought would
be a hobby became an obses-
sion.
And what they thought
would take a year or so blos-
somed into a four-year labor
of love culminating in the
christening of their 47-foot
trawler, Makin' Bubbles, at the
Charlotte Harbor Boat
Storage facility on Gasparilla
Road.
Lovers of the sea and avid
scuba divers, the Lambs and
their two sons, Brett,'13, and
Alex, 10, came up with the
trawler's name together.
Family and friends gathered
for the event and the boys got
permission to skip school.
The trawler is made of
fiberglass and plywood with a
welded frame, ladder and div-
ing platform with outriggers,
or "flopper-stoppers," to help
balance the boat. Lamb noted
that his father, Chuck Lamb,
did a lot of the welding of the
rigging and railings.
Up in the pilot house, a
*small, black photo album
chronicles the boat's con-
struction history. One photo
shows the plywood sides of
the boat sitting on the frame.
It was hard to tell it was actu-
ally upside down until the
next few photos showed the
boat being turned right-side-
up for completion. The entire
project was done in, the

Lambs' back yard on
Fruitland Avenue in
Englewood East.
As one climbs down the
slender and steep steps from
topside, the galley and living
room below echo the nautical
theme with knotty pine and
coiled-rope trim.
Water collected from the
roof of the boat travels
through a pipe system. With
the flip of a stopcock, the
fresh water can fill the fresh-
water tank in the floor of the
boat or be discarded.
The master bedroom
snuggled into the lower stern
has a large bed; hidden
underneath it lies another
interesting aspect of the ves-
sel its rudder. No ordinary
rudder, it's called a
"clamshell" rudder or
"Kitchen rudder" after its
inventor.
Oil's well
Lamb gives his brother,
Jim, full credit for the engi-
neering feat required to build
a boat from scratch. (Jim
Lamb was in Italy and was
unable to attend the launch-
ing.)
"He found the information
on the Internet and did all the
specs on a computer," Lamb
said.
During their research, the
Lamb brothers discovered the
specifications for a trawler
built by a British naval admi-
ral in the 1800s. Adm. Kitchen
used the clamshell rudder to
allow his boat to stop faster
and turn 360 degrees in the
water.
. Makin' Bubbles' eight six-
volt 'golf-cart batteries are
charged by a generator or the
boat's engine, a Cummins

diesel. The gas tank holds 600
gallons of fuel, but Lamb has
found a way to take the hurt
out of filling it up.
"I collect used cooking oil
from restaurants, filter it and
add kerosene. It runs me
about a $1.25 per gallon,"
Lamb said.
Soon after the American
flag was raised on the ship's
pole Brady Pocklington of
Charlotte Harbor Boat
Storage was harnessing
Makin' Bubbles fore and aft.
The wide straps were
attached to a Marine Travelift,
a four-wheeled steel frame
with wheels used to transport
ships from dry land to water
for launching.
The 37,000-pound trawler
- "that's without beer, fuel or
people," noted Lamb was
hoisted into the air as the
metal tripods that kept it
upright on land were
removed. Then Pocklington
faced the boat and while
walking backward started its
forward motion with a
remote-control device.
As the giant Travelift
inched forward, Makin'
Bubbles swayed gently to and
fro as if in no particular hurry
to get to the water. But the
anticipation was building in
all who watched, as
Pocklington deftly guided the
boat to its destination.
Proud
As the trawler hovered over
the dock, Mike and Missy
stood at the bow with small
cups of champagne in their
hands under a bright sun
with Mike's mother and
father, Mary and Chuck, look-
ing on.
"It's been a long journey ...

four years," Mike said, emo-
tion welling in his eyes. "I
want to thank everyone who
helped us. I wish Jim were
here."
Then Missy, turning to,her
husband with tears in her
eyes, added "I'm really proud
of him."
(We're going to treat her
well, and we hope she treats
us well," said Lamb, before
their family and friends
splashed the bow with cham-
pagne.
Then the giant craft was
lowered into the deep-green
tourmaline water. The engine
started to rumble, and in a
few minutes the boat was
backing up into the canal for
its maiden voyage.
Robbie Fehre and his sons,
Robby and Tucker, shadowed
the Makin' Bubbles as she
coursed down the water, to be
there in the event something
would happen. But it was
smooth sailing all the way.
And now the Lambs can
add a few more photos to
their album. They plan to sail
locally for awhile, then head
for the Caribbean and Key
West.

Pro golf: A game of nonstop boredom

a~

DAVE BARRY
..i R ( i)t ,l..'i ST.

This classic Dave Barry column
was originally published April 16,
1995.

It's a gloriously sunny day
in Miami, and I'm standing in
a semicircle of maybe 500
people on a carpet of lush,
sweet-smelling, green-glint-
ing grass, the kind that makes
you want to get naked and
roll around on your back like
a dog.
But the people around me
are not doing that. They're
silent and solemn, like a
church congregation, except
that a lot of them are smoking
cigars. They're staring intently
at some tiny figures way off in
the distance. I'm staring, too,
but I can't quite make out
what the figures are doing.
Suddenly the crowd mur-
murs, and 500 heads jerk sky-
ward in unison. I still can't see
anything. The crowd holds its
breath, waiting, waiting, and
then suddenly... PLOP ... a lit-
tle white ball falls from the
sky, lands in the middle of the
semicircle and starts rolling.
Immediately the crowd mem-
bers are shouting at it angrily.
"Bite!" they shout, spewing
saliva and cigar flecks.
"BITE!!" This is how they tell
the ball they want it to stop
rolling.
The ball, apparently fear-

ing for its life, stops. The
crowd members applaud and
cheer wildly. They're acting as
though the arrival of this ball
is the highlight df their lives.
Which maybe it is. These
are, after all, golf fans. And
this ball was personally hit by
prepare to experience a
heart seizure JACK NICK-
LAUS.
This exciting moment in
sports occurred at the Doral-
Ryder Open golf tournament,
an event on the professional
golf tour, wherein the top
golfers from all over the world
gather together to see who
can take the longest amount
of time to actually hit the ball.
I don't know about you,
but when I play golf which
I have done a total of three
times in my life I don't
waste a lot of time. I just grab
a club, stride briskly to the
ball, take a hearty swing, then
check to see if the ball has
-moved from its original loca-
tion. If it hasn't, I take another
hearty swing, repeating this
process as necessary until the
ball is ,gone, which is my cue
to get out another ball,
because I know from harsh
experience that I will never in
a million years find the first
one. I keep this up until there
are no balls left, which is my
cue to locate the part of the
golfing facility where they sell
beer. In other words, I play an
exciting, nonstop-action
brand of golf that would be
ideal for spectators, except
that most of them would be
killed within minutes.
Your professional golfer,
on the other hand, does not
even THINK about hitting a
ball until he has conducted a
complete geological and
meteorological survey of the
situation, circling the ball

warily, as though it were a ter-
rorist device, checking it out
from every possible angle,
squatting and squinting,
checking the wind, taking soil
samples, analyzing satellite
photographs, testing the area
for traces of O.J. Simpson's
DNA, etc. Your professional
golfer takes longer to line up a
six-foot putt than the Toyota
corporation takes to turn raw
iron ore into a Corolla.
I know that it may sofnd
boring to watch grown men
squat for minutes on end, but
when you see a pro tourna-
ment in person when
you're actually watching
these world-class golfers line
up their shots it is, in fact,
UNBELIEVABLY boring. At
least it was for me. I would
rank it, as a spectator sport,
with transmission repair.
"HIT THE BALL,
ALREADY!" is what I wanted
to shout at Jack Nicklaus, but
I did not, because the crowd
would have turned on me,
and my lifeless body would
have been found later buried
in a sand trap, covered with
cigar burns, because these
fans worship the golfers, and
they seem to be truly fascinat-
ed by the squatting and
squinting process.
The more time that passed
with virtually nothing hap-
pening, the more excited the
golf fans became, until finally,
when Jack got ready to take
the extreme step of actually
hitting the ball, everybody
was nearly crazy with antici-
pation, although nobody was
making a peep, because
putting is an extremely diffi-
cult and highly technical
activity that unlike, for
example, brain surgery -
must be performed in
absolute silence.

And so, amid an atmos-
phere of tension comparable
to that of a Space Shuttle
launch, Jack finally bent over
the ball, drew back his putter
and gently tapped the ball.
"GET IN THE HOLE!" the
crowd screamed at the ball.
"GET IN THE HOLE!"
The ball, of course, did not
go in the hole. Your world-
class golfers miss a surprising
number of short putts. Too
much squatting, if you ask
me.
"NO!" shouted the crowd,
when the ball stopped,
maybe an inch from the hole.
Some men seemed to be
near tears; some were cursing
openly. These people were
FURIOUS at the ball. They did
not blame Jack. Jack worked
HARD to line up this putt,
and here this idiot ball LET
HIM DOWN.
But Jack was magnani-
mous. He tapped the ball in,
and the fans applauded wild-
ly, as well they should have,
because it is not every day
that you see a person cause a
little ball to roll six feet.
When Jack had acknowl-
edged the applause, the next
famous world-class golfer in
his group, John Daly, began
considering the many, many
complex factors involved in
his putt, which he will proba-
bly be ready to attempt no
later than June. Let me know
if he makes it. I'll be in the
grass just beyond the refresh-
ment area, rolling around like
a dog.

Dave Barry is taking a
leave of absence from writing
his weekly humor column.
His classic columns appear in
the Wednesday edition of the

A I-
SB S herniated Vv^,
(bulging) disc can
3 press on the nerves of the spine
causing a great deal of pain,
S numbness, tingling, or weakness,
all of which are symptoms of conditions
such-as sciatica. Other disc-related
problems, including arthritis, degenerative
disc disease, spinal stenosis, and facet
syndrome, are so painful and debilitating
that sufferers often turn to surgery for relief.
However, there is a non-surgical option that
merits serious consideration as a first-line
treatment for these, and other, disc-related
problems. Spinal decompression therapy is a
program that involves the use of FDA-
approved non-surgical equipment to relieve
stresses on spinal architecture. Studies
indicate that spinal decompression therapy
has at least a 70-percent success rate.
Before opting for surgery, consider this
effective, non-invasive procedure.

P.S. A full course of spinal decompression
therapy takes between four and eight weeks
(30-45 minutes per session) depending on
the condition being treated.

Mickey kicks it up a notch
Imagine having the Magic
Kingdom all to yourself and
your family. It happened to
the Spangler family from
Atwater, Ohio, who won the
prize in an onlline contest to
kick off Disney Parks' Year of a
Million Dreams, the theme
park's newest celebration. I
have been lucky enough to
see Main Street very nearly
empty but the Spanglers had
that magical street all to
themselves, without so much
as a Disney cast member in
sight as they walked down the
red carpet and headed off for
the rides of their choice. Short
of having a date with Donald
Duck, it couldn't get much
better than that in my hum-

ble opinion.
In the coming year, at least
a million dreams will come
true in the Florida and Cali-
fornia Disney resorts. For
resort reservations at WDW,
call (407) W-DISNEY
Mousecateering
The Walt Disney Company
took the No. 1 spot in
Business Week magazine's
inaugural Best Places to
Launch a Career ranking.
Among the reasons cited
were its opportunities for new
college graduates, strong on-
campus recruiting program,
benefits package and collab-
orative culture. After talking
to Disney employees for
years, asking about what it is
like to spend every day with
Mickey and his gang, this
ranking came as no surprise
to me. Some of those people
who work in the little shops
have been there for 25 years
and more.
At the .California resort, I
have met several who met
Walt Disney himself in the
early days.
