JACKSONVILLE
While the city busted
with pride because of its
rapid growth, there was a
few wvho started taking
advantage of the growth


from another angle. They
saw an opportunity for
personal growth. The
Jacksonville Sheriff's
Office began receiving
.many calls about the loss


of appliances and air con-
ditioning units which
increased the cost of con-
struction. The builders
had to increase the
amotmt charged to con-


struct because they were
experiencing an increase
in, cost by having to pur-
chase the missing items
more than once. So, in
January 2005. the.


David Wolf


Sheriff's department cre-
ated a sting operation
called, Operation Ice
Cold. The operation's
goal w as to crack down
on stolen air conditioning


units and appliances from
residential and commer-
cial construction sites.
What \\as happening to
the merchandise? This was
one question regarding
the missing items. Were
the items going to other

Black Firefighters-It's Time For A Change


Members of the black fire-
fighters fraternal organization
appeared on The Florida Star's
radio show IMPACT
Thursday night and discussed
openingly the issues they are
facing at the Jacksonville Fire
and Rescue Department and


S\wh the Human Rights
'Commission \was justified in
recommending that the four
top leaders of the fire depart-
ment be released.
Many residents are con-
cerned and their concern grew
deeper when they were
exposed to a commercial that
features Mayor John Pe ton, a
noose and a Confederate flag.
The retired firefighters. Ms.
Wanda Butler and Mr. Alonza
Brommer \worked for the
Jackson\ille Fire and Rescue
Department for more than thir-
ty ,ears each.
They have seen progress


and they have seen regres-
sion. Right now. their con-
cern is for a positive change.
There is racism and there is
sexism in the department and
none should be tolerated said
the retired employees..
They feel that the public
. needs to be aware of \what is
really going onAvithin the
ranks and understand why the
Human Rights Commission
made the recommendations.
They did not encourage the
Commission's recommenda-
tion, they just told the truth.
Ms. Butler pointed out
several intolerable incidents


that were racist and sexist. Mr.
Brommer joined her and
advised that at one time, there
was in place a Consent Decree
that required the department to
have fair hiring and diversity
training. After the Decree
either expired or had'been
signed off on in the early
nineties, things changed. even
the hiring policies.
At this point and with the
news changes, it will be years
before a black employee can
reach a high level position said
Butler. Also. they pointed out
that the equation used for
equal hiring is no longer being


used as the number of minori-
ties that are hired are not in
line with the number of
minorities living in the area,
as demanded by the former
Consent Decree.
They are aware of the fact
that the local, state and
national offices of the
NAACP are presently investi-
gating if a new decree is war-
ranted.
The organization's biggest.
concern is fairness within the
department and the elimina-
tion of the racist and sexist
behavior.

Unlock Cell Phones For Cheaper Rates


Having a cell phone is a
part of life for most
Americans today but the cost
could really cut into ones
budget and often users with
prepaid phones experience
days without a phone. But
that could change according
to a report out of Dallas.
According to a \\TAA
report, a wireless technology
expert in Dallas explained that


consumers' ability to cut the
cost of use could be done
when they use an "unlocked"
mobile phone.
Most carriers use the lock
system. Cingular. the largest
wireless provider uses a tech-
nology called GSM and so
does T-Mobile. The report
said that when Cingular and
T-NMobile sign a customer to a
contract, the customer's infor-


nation is on a SIM card
and at that time, is
locked, allowing only the
ability to use their rates.
Howe\ er. according to the
report, the code can be
unlocked The report said that
it is not illegal to unlock the
phone because the phone is
the user's personal property.
The report said that
Cingular would not unlock the


phone while the user is under
contract but T-NMobile will do
so after orning the phone for
more than 90 days. Once the
phone is unlocked, customers
can purchase a SIM card that
provide cheaper minutes and
probably without a long-term
contract. It is estimated that
the user can witness a huge

Kenneth Williams


July 21. 2006 started
another day of murders in
Jacksonville when Martha
Kirkley was sitting on the
front porch of a northside
home. and gunned down.
Luckily for George
Johnson and his family none
of the bullets touched their
seven-year-old daughter who
was sleeping inches from
where Kirkley was killed.
Wimess advised JSO that
Kenneth Williams, 22, saw
Kirkley sitting on the porch
and walked up to her and said,
"You told on me." At that
point, he pulled out a gun and
shot her several times as he
approached her up close.
What is not clear is what
Kirkley told on him.
An investigation is being
held to determine if the mur-
der was because of retaliation
or another type matter. What

A Fresh Mayor in Newark with Fresh Ideas

RON WILLIAMS, SR.

BETTY ASQUE DAVIS
COLUMNIST


s this year's elec-
tion season gets into full
swing, voters across the
country are thinking
about the kinds of
changes they'd like to
see in their elected lead-
ers. For voters in
Newark, change has
already come. In May,
they overwhelmingly
elected 37-year-old Cory
Booker as their new
mayor. Booker came
close to winning the job
four years ago but lost to
longtime Mayor Sharpe
James, running for his
fifth term. Now, like
Senator Barack Obama
of Illinois, Mayor
Booker is part of a new
generation, of Black
leaders who are bringing
fresh ideas and attitudes
to the local and national
political scenes.
Booker didn't grow
up in Newark but in a
more affluent, predomi-
nantly White. New
Jersey suburb. He first
made a name for himself
not by winning football
games, not elections. He
was a New Jersey Player
of the Year, a high
school All-American.

end for Stanford
University. He also
stood out in the class-
room. After earning his
bachelor's and master's
degrees at Stanford, he
won a prestigious
Rhodes Scholarship to
Oxford University in
England where I first
met him through my son
Jonah, also a Rhodes
Scholar. After Oxford he
was accepted by Yale
Law School.
Some people have
used Booker's impres-
sive education and
achievements against
him. In his 2002 race
against Mayor James,
which turned extremely
ugly, critics cited his
privileged upbringing
and elite credentials as
some of the reasons he
couldn't possibly relate
to or represent Newark
and "real" Black people.
But Booker %\as always
determined to prove,
those kinds of naysayers
wrong. A college friend
later remembered that
even as an undergradu-
ate, Booker had a strong
sense of mission: "He
talked about the dispari-
ty between the rich and

poor, as well as the
problems of the inner
city. He had this great
burden of wanting to
give back and every
step up the ladder of his
career, I think his pur-
pose intensified."
Booker himself has
credited his parents for
always emphasizing the
familiar proverb "from
him to whom much is
given, much is expect-
ed."
While he was a law
student at Yale, he began
commuting back and
forth to Newark to serve
as a legal advisor for a
tenants' rights associa-
tion, and soon became a
full-time resident com-
pletely immersed in
community activism. He
chose to live in a hous-
ing project in one of the
city's most disadvan-
taged neighborhoods so
he could get a fuller
understanding of peo-
ple's needs; and became
convinced he could
make a real difference in
Newark. At age 29, he
decided to run for the,
city council and won,.
edging out a 16-year'
incumbent and 'making
him the youngest coun-
cil member in the city's
history. As a council
member, he spent time.
living in a mobile home


so he could easily move
from block to block and
be a literal presence on
the street corner to
address problems and
help keep drug dealers
and other negative influ-
ences away.
The bitter political
battle of his first run for
mayor was the subject of
an Academy Award-
nominated documentary,
Street Fight. Supporters
then had no doubt he'd
be back and I'm glad he
persisted. Now that he's
won, new admirers are
already talking about
even higher office. For
now, at least, Cory
Booker is still focused
on the same tasks that
first pulled him to
Newark back .in law
school: helping to solve
some of the city's per-
sistent challenges,
including crime, educat-
ing our: children, and
creating jobs. Youth
development and chil-
dren's needs have
always.been among his
top concerns. Many peo-
ple have very high hopes
for this bright new
leader, and Mayor Cory
Booker certainly has a
track record of success.

Community Hospice Honors Five
Community Leaders
At Living Through Giving Gala
The Ritz Theatre & LaVilla Museum was an ideal place
for Community Hospice's Living through Giving
Celebration and to kick off the fall calendar of events.
Surrounded by the awesome African American history of
the 'Ritz', it was ideal as friends and supporters welcomed
Mrs. Connie Payton, the widow football legend perennial
All-Pro and NFL Hall of Fame running back for the
Chicago Bears, the late Walter Payton. And what a coup'
for the local group! It was almost unimaginable when I
received the invitation indicating that Mrs. Payton would
be coming to the First Coast to serve as guest speaker for
the event. Mrs. Payton lived up to the splendid'billing' that
preceded her speech. She spoke from her heart as she told
of her family's trials during her late husband's illness, his
death and the reflections of her son Jarrett Payton who is
now an NFL player in his own right. She challenged each
of us to get out affairs in order and not be caught unpre-
pared should death touch our lives unexpectedly.
Community Hospice of Northeast Florida recognized
five community leaders from the First Coast's African-
American community. The Living Through Giving, A
Celebration of Works & Deeds is a community based event
supporting the African American community of Northeast
Florida, and recognizing those members who, through their
actions and accomplishments have enhanced the quality of
life throughout the community.
This year's honorees were: Dr. Floyd B. Willis, MD,
Mayo Clinic Dr. Robert L. Brown, Sr., Health Care
Award; Mrs. Sylvia Johnson, Principal Eugene Butler
Middle School-Education Award; Rev. Mark L. Griffin,,
Wayman Chapel African American Episcopal Church-
Community Service Award; Eddie Walker-NAS
Jacksonville-Business Award; and the late Coach
Bernard Wilkes-Athletics Award.
Additionally seven African-American students were
presented scholarships in the areas of health care, liberal
arts, higher education and the arts. The 2006 scholarships
recipients were: Maurice Alexander-Edward Waters
College; Andy Andre- University of North Florida:
Erika Bolton- Douglas Anderson School of the Arts;
Kimberly Johnson-, Florida Community College;
Brittani Payton-University of North Florida; Krystal
Stovall-Florida A. & M. University; and Kedra White-
Florida Community college at Jacksonville. Each schol-
arship if awarded for one year only. What a splendid group
of young people!
Mrs. Susan Ponder-Stansel, president and CEO of
Community Hospice, and Judge Brian Davis presented
the awards and scholarships. "This has been ah exciting
and rewarding evening for Community Hospice. It was an
opportunity to celebrate African-
Americans who share our commitment to enhancing
quality of life on the First Coast," stated Mrs. Ponder-
Stansel. "And we are honored to help repay the generosi-
ty of the community by helping thee seven outstanding stu-
dents continue their education.
"I'm proud to have been part of an effort in the commu-
nity to help educate people about end-of-life care and to
recognize people who are making positive contributions to
our city," added Judge Davis.
There weren't any of the usual plaque presentations for
the honorees at this affair. Each of the Living Through
Giving awards were individually designed and created by
local potter Ms. Glendia Cooper. The creations reflected
each winner's accomplishments. Ms. Cooper, the Duval
county School Board Liaison at the Cummer Museum of
Arts .& Gardens has exhibited her w ork throughout the
country .
The magnificent evening with friends was sponsored by
Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville.

Pauline Brown. It was her 99th birthday and her family
put on a glitzy feast for her at the St. Matthew AME
Church Hall.
Wearing a stunning tiara, surrounded by her family and
dear friends, Mrs. Brown was regal. And it was a spirit

Davis Apologizes


To Pitts And Lee


WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. After months of political
attacks, Democratic' gubernatorial nominee Jim Davis is
admitting he made a mistake when he voted in the state
Legislature to deny compensation for two black men con-
victed, and later cleared, in the killings of two white men.
Davis scheduled a meeting with Freddie Pitts and Wilbert


Lee to apologize to them for his 1990 vote, spokesman Josh
Earnest said Tuesday.
Pitts and Lee originally pleaded guilty to the 1963
killings of two gas station attendants, but then claimed they
were beaten, threatened and interrogated for hours until they
confessed to the crime in hopes of being spared the death,
penalty. However, they were sentenced to be executed, and
remained on death row for nine years.The case was eventu-
ally. overturned, but they were again convicted by an all-
white jury in a second trial as both maintained their inno-
cence. Reports later surfaced that the prosecution had with-
held evidence, and another man eventually admitted killing


the station attendants.
Pitts and Lee were pardoned in 1975 by then-Gov.
Reubin Askew, who cited substantial doubt about their guilt
andthe third man's confession.They were eventually award-
ed $500,000 each by the Legislature in 1998.
The 1990 vote to deny compensation dogged the Davis
campaign throughout the Democratic gubernatorial primary
race, as his opponent, state Sen. Rod Smith, accused him of
failing to undo injustice. Davis had said he didn't have
enough evidence at the time to approve the compensation,
but he finally agreed to review the record again after repeat-
ed attacks throughout his campaign.

ing he was wrong for not supporting Freddie Pitts, cen-
ter, and Wilbert Lee, right, two men who were wrongly
convicted and sent to prison. After months of political
attacks, Davis is admitting he made a mistake when he
voted in 1990 in the state Legislature to deny compensa-
tion for the two men convicted, and later cleared, of

Girls Perform


Better On Tests


When Feuding


Parents Divorce
.GAINESVILLE, Fla. A clean break from a bad mar-
riage is actually better for the couple's school-age daughters
than a troubled union, a new Uni\ersity of Florida study
finds.
Contrary to the expectation that marriage is always good
for children while divorce is bad, the study found that the
schoolwork of girls whose parents split up is better than that
of girls who live with a mom and dad who don't get along,
said Mark Hoekstra. who did the research for his doctoral
dissertation in economics at UF.
"There is no question, as I and other researchers find, that
boys and girls from tvvo-parent intact families perform better
academically than boys and girls whose parents divorced,"
Hoekstra said. "But I was surprised to learn that girls %\hose
parents divorced do better in school than girls from similar-
ly troubled families whose parents went to the brink of
divorce but remained married."
In the study, girls between first- and 10th-grades whose
parents divorced scored an average of slightly more than
eight points higher on standardized reading and mathematics
tests than girls whose parents filed for divorce but later
requested the case be dismissed. These differences persisted
four years after the divorce, he said.
No academic differences were found for boys, although
they did experience a short-term increase in disciplinary
problems immediately after divorce that did not last beyond
three years, said Hoekstra, who is now an economics profes-
sor at the University of Pittsburgh.
One possible reason girls in families with troubled mar-
riages are more likely to experience academic problems is
that they may be more adversely affected by conflict, he
said.
The opportunity for girls to have a closer relationship
with their mothers when parents divorce may also explain
their stronger academic performance. Hoekstra said. "Since
in most cases mothers have primary custody, there may be a
mother-daughter bond that forms as a result of a divorce that
daughters respond to in a positive way compared to what
would have happened if the parents had remained married,"
he said.
The results have important implications for divorce
reform initiatives that have gained popularity recently
because of concerns about the effects of divorce on children,
Hoekstra said. Since 1996 at least eight states have consid-
ered legislation that would make it more difficult for parents
to end their marriage by limiting grounds for divorce and
requiring pre-divorce counseling, he said.
"My research suggests that policy-makers ought to be
less concerned with whether or not parents legally dissolve
their marriages and more concerned with helping them over-
come the types of problems that cause them to contemplate
divorce in the first place," Hoekstra said. "Unless the inter-
vention can resolve the issues that got the family to the point
of considering divorce, it will result in considerably lower
academic achievement for the daughters involved."
Discipline is the issue with boys, Hoekstra said. "There
has been some research suggesting that when boys lack a
male role model in the home, which often happens after a
divorce, they may be more affected than their sisters and act
up, but my study shows that the effects are not permanent,"
he said. t $f

Family Digest Announces 50 Best




Companies For African Americans


Austin, TX-- Family Digest today announced its fourth
annual list of the Best Companies for African AmericansTM
for 2006 as featured in the magazine's Fall 2006 cover story.
In selecting the companies, Family Digest's editors evaluat-
ed more than 1,000 companies in the following areas:
employee feedback, employee demographics, recruitment of
African Americans, board makeup, company culture,
advancement of African Americans, work-life programs and
policies, and spending with Black-owned suppliers.
A total of 50 companies were identified as worthy of
recognition. Among these top 50, Denny's, New York Life,
Morgan Stanley and Cingular were singled out for strong all-
around performance. Also included on the list were Burrell
Communications Group, UniWorld Group, and Carol H.
Williams Advertising, three advertising agencies that spe-
cialize in reaching the Black consumer market.
"We love great companies. Great companies strive for a
type of perfection that, while generally unattainable, allows
them to improve year after year," says Family Digest
Founder & Publisher Darryl L. Mobley. "It is in this spirit
that we searched for, and found, the 50 great company's that
made up Family Digest's 4th annual list. of the Best
Companies for African AmericansTM. Family Digest was the
first publication to focus on the unique question of whether
or not companies were doing a sufficient job at employment,
retention and promotion of African Americans, in an envi-
ronment sane to the needs of working adults and their fami-
lies."
"Family Digest is the leading magazine addressing the
interests of African American heads-of-household and their
families," said Family Digest Editor-in-Chief Susan
Benjamin. "We all know that professional success enables
parents to provide for their families. Because of this, we
were interested in each firm's work-family programs, flexi-
ble-work policies, mentoring programs and the like."
Family Digest also does not rank the companies selected.
According to Darryl L. Mobley. "To rank these outstanding
companies is to commit fraud by our judgment and to make
losers of all we did not deem to be number one."

The list of Family Digest Best Companies for African
Americans"M for 2006 includes the following:

Study Cites High Cancer Rates Amon4 Blacks


CHARLESTON, S.C.. --
A study conducted by
researchers from'. the'
Medical University of South
Carolina (MUSC) and
University of South
Carolina shows that the can-
cer rate among blacks living
in South Carolina is nearly
twice as great as it is for
whites in the state.
The study released Sept.
S 13 by the Journal of the
South Carolina M medical
SAssociation focuses on
racial imbalances that exist
in African American and
European American cancer
rates in South Carolina.
while comparing cancer dis-
parities between the two
races nationally.
South Carolina leads the:
nation in cancer rates. The
study found that in South
Carolina:.
African "American
women are about 60 percent
more likely than" white
women to die from breast
cancer after diagnosis,
which is the largest dispari-
ty in the country.
?' African American men


are nearly 80 percent more
likely to get prostate cancer
and nearly three times more:
likely to die of the disease'
than white men. This is
about 50 percent of the rate
nationally.
. Both African American
men and women are more
likely to have and die of col-
orectal cancer than their
white counterparts.
*' African American
women are much more like-
ly to be diagnosed and die
from cervical cancer;
despite similar screening
rates .
MIeanwhile. programs
including Health-e-AME
and Brothers Against
Prostrate Cancer, which is
operated through barber.
shops in South Carolina, are
supported by MUSC. While
some of the differences are
related to socioeconomic
factors that determine access
to healthcare, "We are pretty
much in the dark regarding
many of the underlying
causes,", said,James Hebert,
Ph.D., an USC researcher
and a journal contributor.

Is Whitney, Houston's



Rocky Marriage Ending?


LOS ANGELES The
tumultuous marriage of
Whitney Houston and
Bobby Brown -- which
withstood drug addiction,
Brown's numerous arrests,
the decline of Houston's
once-sparkling image and
domestic abuse allegations -
- is coming to an end.
A publicist for Houston
confirmed to The Associated
Press that the Grammy-win-
ning, superstar ,singer had
filed for divorce from her
husband Bobby Brown, after
1-4 years of marriage.
:Publicist Nancy Seltzer
declined to reveal where or
when Houston filed:-. the
divorce papers, and said the
singer had no statement to
make.
"I can just confirm that
she has, filed for divorce,"
Seltzer said Wednesday.
Houston and Brown,
who had a home in
Alpharetta, Ga., have one
child together, a 13-year-old
daughter. Bobbi Kristina.
When Houston and
Brown wed in,.1992, the
match seemed to outsiders
to be a mismatch. :Houston -
- once one of the best-selling
singers in history -- was a
glamorous, pop superstar
with a super-clean, princess-
like persona. whereas
Brown, who rose to fame as
a member of the boy band
New Edition before striking
out on his own, was a some-.
times coarse R&B singer
with a more streetwise
image.
But as the years wore on,
it would become hard to
determine which one was

"Time is on
the side of the
oppressed today,:
it's against the
oppressor.
Truth is
on the side
:: of the
oppressed today,
it's against the
oppressor.
Y6u don't
need
anything else."

Malcolm X

' .


more troubled. Though
Bobby Brown-- best known
for hits like "My
Prerogative" and "Every
Little Step"-- would be
arrested numerous times for
drugs and' 'alcohol,
Houston's own battles with
substance abuse sullied her
image.
; Together, the two were a
tabloid editor's dream. When
Brown was released from a
stretch in jail a few years
ago, an ecstatic Houston


greeted him by jumping into
his arms and throwing her
arms and legs around him
before a; throng of fans and.
media.
And in the no"\ infamous
2002 ABC interview with
Diane Sawyer, an erratic-
sounding and van-looking
Houston, with a profusely
sweating Brown by her side,
admitted dabbling in drugs
but denied using crack, then
uttered the now famous
phrase: "Crack is \wack."

Mr. Brommer pointed out the fear of the community and the behavior displayed by certain fire-
fighters when their services are sought in certain neighborhoods with all, including older adults
and young children, making it difficult for the Jacksonville residents to feel comfort when service
is sought.
The ads were released as another avenue to reach the mayor and the city about the problems
with the hope that the actions recommended by the Human Rights Commission be quickly acti-
vated. "It is understood that the fire chief is leaving in eleven months, but if he has not taken the
needed action to eliminate the problems in the three years he has served as the organization's
leader, he certainly can't change the situation in eleven months" said Mr. Brommer.
Presently, according to Brommer and Butler, memos are initiated without being read; workers
get others to sign for them and attend seminars that are required and strict discipline is not in place.
Without proper discipline, changes cannot be made. Without leadership changes, attitude changes
will not be activated. "Jacksonville, it is time for a change," said Ms. Butler and Mr. Brommer,
"and that is why the commercial was released." Ms. Butler said the fraternal organization or the
Leadership Coalition did not design the commercial but all are making a plea for a change NOW!

Diverse New Coalition Launches

Depression Education Campaign

WASHINGTON -- Frustrated and concerned by popular misconceptions that triv-
ialize depression as "just the blues" or dismiss it entirely as an "imaginary disease,"
seven prominent physician, patient and civic nonprofit organizations have joined
together to launch a public education campaign to tell Americans the truth about
depression. The Depression Is Real Coalition seeks to educate Americans that
depression is a serious, debilitating disease that can be fatal if left untreated and to
provide hope for recovery to the nearly 19 million Americans who suffer from
depression each year.
The Depression Is Real public education campaign is sponsored by The
American Psychiatric Foundation (a philanthropic and educational subsidiary of the
American'.Psychiatric Association), the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance,
the League of United Latin American Citizens, the National Alliance on Mental
Illness, the National Medical Association, the National Mental Health Association
and the National Urban League and is made possible through the support of Wyeth.:
"Our research shows that many Americans don't realize that depression is a bio-
logically-'based disease --in )fact, a third of all Americans believe that mental ill-
nesses like depression are caused by emotional or personal weaknesses, and almost
that number think they are caused by old age alone," said Altha J. Stewart, MD.
President of the American Psychiatric Foundation. "We believe we have a responsi-
bility to tell the public the truth about depression -- one based on scientific evidence
and clinical research. not made-up 'facts' or Wishful thinking."
The Depression Is Real Coalition believes that those in the popular culture who
label depression a "myth" and deny that medical or other treatments are necessary
for recovery do real harm to depression sufferers. Indisputable scientific evidence
shows depression to be a biologically-based disease that destroys the connections
between brain cells and can affect every aspect of a person's health. Science and
medical research have also proven that people can and do recover from depression
through appropriate treatment.
"Tri\ializing depression as a passing mood or, worse, an imaginary illness can
discourage those who need treatment from seeking help," said Sue Bergeson,
President of the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance. "That's not just counter-
productive -- it's downright dangerous because depression is the principal cause of
suicide worldwide, killing more people than homicides and terrorism combined."
she said. "This campaign is critical because more education and awareness can help
deter needless deaths and the years of suffering that precedes them." she added.


Nation's Oldest African-American

Newspaper To Launch

Signature Ad Campaign

PWILADELPHIA-- The Philadelphia Tribune, the nation's oldest African-American-controlled
newspaper, today announced the launch of a comprehensive, new advertising campaign that will
reaffirm the paper's primary editorial focus on issues that impact black readers. In so doing, the
print, broadcast, out-of-home, and online campaign -- the most extensive ad campaign in the
paper's history -- will emphasize the Tribune's 122-year legacy of black journalistic leadership, its
extensive African- American readership, its unique black-focused political perspective, its positive
coverage of black business issues, and its unique Web site content.
The new campaign will be led by a series of print ads that will appear in the Tribune's own
pages, and whose content will be converted for use in Web advertisements, bus-sides, and other
out-of-home outlets.
Each of the new print ad formats concludes with the tagline: "The Philadelphia Tribune ... only
when you want the truth about issues in the African-American Community."
Over coming weeks, the campaign will extend to local radio. Radio spots will continue the
theme of the Tribune's special dedication to truthful, knowledgeable, fair and expansive coverage
of local, national, and global black issues.
According to the Tribune's publisher, Robert W. Bogle, the 2005 U.S. Census data make the
demographics of Philadelphia, the Tribune's headquarters city, ideally situated for a newspaper
with such a clear ethnic focus.
"In all of the 122 years since the Philadelphia Tribune began to be published, this may be the
very best year to have an African-American-focused news operation," said Bogle. "All told, our
paper reaches more African- American households on a weekly basis than any other newspaper in
the region."
"The most recent census," added Bogle, "tells us that Philadelphia's population is now 45 per-
cent comprised of African Americans, 40 percent non- Hispanic whites, 10 percent Hispanics and
about 5 percent Asians. Clearly, African Americans constitute the single largest population segment
in our city and no other local news source in the entire region carries more information about that
community than the Tribune. The reason for the new ad campaign is to remind the people in the
Philadelphia area that this happens to be the case, and that We are prepared to be the primary news
source for the City's new majority."
The new campaign was recently introduced to the Tribune's staff at a noon- time reception that
celebrated the fact that the paper had just won nine major awards at the annual convention of the
National. Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA), the trade association for the 205 audited,
African- American-focused newspapers in the U.S. In six of the last ten years, at that same conven-
tion, the Tribune has been named the nation's best black newspaper.
Established in 1884 by Christopher J. Perry, and currently led by its publisher, Robert W. Bogle,
The Philadelphia Tribune is headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The paper is published
every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday, along with the Tribune Magazine, which
is published on the first Sunday of every month, and, Sojourner, the quarterly published visitor's
guide. With a staff of 130 full and part-time employees, The Philadelphia Tribune is the nation's
oldest and the Greater Philadelphia region's largest daily news publicanon serving the African-
American community.

homes, or outside of Jacksonville? It was determined that the items were being
resold. Some of the units were sold to the original owners.
There were 1,022 reports filed for grand theft and business burglaries for con-
struction sites. The approximate value of the merchandise stolen was $3.5 million.
The rate of the burglaries was about two per day.
Arrested in this bust were Matthew Elmendorf, Willie Flynn, Bobby Kennedy.
George Moran. Vaughn Reed. Willie Sing, Timothy Smothers. Lindsey Weston,
Daniel Williams. Edward Laron Williams and David Wolf. Still at large is Antonio
Lewis.
The operation is continuing not just because of the thieves but also because of the
buyers of the air conditioning units and appliances.
JSO advised that those who purchased the merchandise knowing that the items
were stolen are also part of the criminal acts and will be apprehended.

Jay-Z Emerging From His



Hip Hop Retirement

NEW-YORK Call him the Nlichael Jordan of rap. Jay-Z, who declared that 2003's "The
Black Album" would be his last, is coming out retirement and releasing a new CD.
Kingdom Come" will hit stores this fall, Entertainment Weekly magazine reports in its new
issue, due on newsstands Monday.
"It was the worst retirement in history," Jay told the magazine.
Actually, his post-retirement career looked pretty good. In 2004, the rap icon (real name: Shawn
Carter) became president and CEO of Def Jam'Recordings. He became part owner of the New
Jersey Nets that same year. Also on his resume: Not-So-Secret Boyfriend of Beyonce.
Despite naysayers' doubts, the 36-year-old Jay-Z thought he was retired from music-making: "I
believed it, yeah. I believed it for two years"
But since his "retirement," he's gone on a world tour, performed on hit records with Beyonce
and other entertainers, and had a profile higher than most working rappers. There were rumblings
that he was working on a new album. And in an interview with The Associated Press this summer,
She said he \was thinking about coming out of retirement.
He told Entertainment Weekly that he began tinkering in the studio over the summer.
"Something, when you love it, is always tugging at you and itching, and I was putting it off and
putting it off. I started fumbling around to see if it felt good," he said.
The result: "Kingdom Come."
The disc is "more in the vein of'The Black Album' than 'The Blueprint.'" he tells the magazine.
"I've been experimenting with things, different types of music "
He's already recruited some A-list producer-collaborators: Timbaland, Kanye West and Dr. Dre.
Even Coldplay fronrman Chris Martin produced a track called "Beach Chair," he said.
So --for real no\\ -- when does he plan to retire?
"If I wake up one day and the best material has passed me by and that's going to happen," he
said, "then it's time to move on. I've said what I wanted to say."

Strictly Business: American Southwest Music
Distribution's Wine-O Delivers the Goods
Thursday September 14, 9:00 a.m. ET Jay.z


LOS ANGELES--(American Southwest Music Distribution artist Wine-O has completed filming a new
music video for his smash hit single "Pop My Trunk." His forthcoming 20-track album, "Hate Me," is to
be released by American through Universal Music's distribution channels on October 31, 2006. The artist
wrote, produced or co-produced all the tracks on the album which propelled the single atop the Billboard
Top 100 R&B charts for 19 consecutive weeks.
S"Before in my music, I gave ways out of a bad lifestyle. But on this album, I rap about what I've seen,
how I've lived, and my life as a whole," remarks Wine-O about his upcoming album.
*i The video's theme compares the life of a rap star to the perks of being an ancient Greek prince in the
times of Troy. As American's CEO David Michery describes, "We are very happy with. the video. We
believe this video will attract a lot of attention from the stunning visual artistry in the opening scenes to
1 the gritty, hardcore-rap throughout. This video should propel both Wine-O and American onto the nation-
-7.- ._al urban/hip-hop stage."
N". aHouston based artist Wine-O, formerly Nu Wine, has been a fixture on the music scene in Texas for over
_i*:il a decade. Straight from the streets of the 5th ward in Houston and with 12 albums under his belt, Wine-O
is currently on tour as well as producing a track for R&B sensation LeToya Luckett. The musician also
completed a project in collaboration with legendary rapper, writer and producer Scarface and platinum
Recording artist Slim Thug earlier this year.

The Summer


THEA


By Rych McCain
She is well known
throughout the TV and
Film industry as one of
Hollywood's top black
Casting Directors. In
reality, she is one of
Hollywood's top cast-
ing directors period! We
are talking about Robi
Reed. This attractive,
Delta Sigma Theta
soror and Hampton
University alumnus
also has built an
impressive track record
as an actress, producer
and creative consultant.
Over the past four
years, Reed has hosted
an end of the summer
bar-b-cue. This year's
event was a fund raiser
to benefit The Black
Aids Institute.
Without question,
Reed's affair was the
"creme de la cr6me."
When she calls, every-
body responds! The list
of stars from the enter-
tainment/sports and the
civic/political worlds is
much too long to call
names. Let it suffice to
say that all of the major
players were there. The
crowd on the grounds
of Reed's spacious
home was shoulder to,


shoulder at round 2500
guests. The complete
menu of food and drink
never ran out the entire
night. DJ -Nice was "off
the hook" rocking the-
revelers from the booth,
and the Latino Band
"DW3," put ion a
smoking' live show that
kept the dance area
jumping. The sponsors
included Tanqueray and
Crown Royal spirits and
our own "Sweetie Pie of
Publicity," Lisa Sorensen
of LS-PR (a black firm)
and her able assistant
Joseph Babineaux, both
of whom expeditiously
and professionally han-
dled the event's public
relations.
When asked to reflect
on such an electric night,
Reed responded,
"Initially, I started this
party exactly four years
ago to bring people
together. It was a trans-
formation for me in my
life personally and pro-
fessionally. I wanted an
opportunity to have a
good time with my
friends, who I haven't
seen in a long time and
that concept has just
grown into this now
event, where we have


brought on the Black
AIDSltnstitute to benefit
as a charity and an annu-
al festivity where folks
can get together and

adamant in her fight
against the AIDS epi-
demic. She turns serious
when she adds, "In addi-
tion to having fun


tonight, it is real life
that we are dealing with
and AIDS awareness is
essential in our commu-
nity. I don't know if it is
ignorance or denial but
it is really key that we
get tested, get treated,
get information and get
really active."

Correction:
In my feature with
foxy NHRA race driver
Nicole Lyons, I mistaken-
ly said that Shirley
Muldowney was the first
black female NHRA drag
race driver in 1965. In
actuality; Muldowney is
White and was the first
femal NHRA drag racer.
Lyons is the "first" Black


female drag racer. Hope
you enjoyed reading about
this history making sista
because she is fine, bad and
the real deal. Superstardom
for her is imminent!

Starring ,Josh Hartnett,


Scarlett Johansson, Hilarly
Swank, Aaron Eckhart and
Mia Kirshner. Directed by
Brian DePalmer. Produced
by Debra Grieco Bergman,
Danny Dimbort and Trevor
Short. This film evolves
around the. true gruesome
murder of actress Betty
Ann Short in Los Angeles
in 1947. The murder has
never been solved. The
movie version is not what
actually happened in real
life and can be confusing in
parts.
The two cops assigned
to the case i.e., Bucky
Bleichert (Hartnett) and
Lee Blanchard (Eckhart)
take the viewers through a


never ending maze of
"what-else-can-go-wrong."
Bucky gets hung. up
between his partner's
woman Kay (Johansson)
and one of the murder sus-
pects Madeleine (Swank).
Of course he bed hops with
both while trying to fit all
of the odd shaped pieces
together. This film has a
weird feel at a hard to fol-
low pace. Some scenes are
grizzly and the action is
very limited. If this film
were a TV movie, you
might change the channel
halfway through.

Auntie Roz Knows How To Throw A Party!


To celebrate her 60th Birthday, Roslyn Burrough, who is
known to hundreds of children and their parents, as Auntie
Roz, pulled off another of her fabulous events.
Her yard was transformed into a Paris Caf6' equipped
with live entertainment and the best food this side of the St.
Johns.
Roslyn's expansive and beautiful backyard was a perfect-
ly lovely outdoor setting for this One of a Kind Birthday
Bash. Roslyn has a special talent for involving others in her
imaginative ideas and creations. This time, even Mother
Nature gave in to her wishes by providing a beautiful sum-
mer evening, under a canopy of stately trees.
There were some one hundred gatherers, chefs, diners,'
hosts, hostesses and helpers, none of whom had ever been
invited to share in such an experience.
Tw\elve local chefs were invited to come and prepare one
or more of their culinary specialties for sampling by special
guests. Among the delicious offerings was Jollof Rice, Soul
Food Medley. BBQ Ribs and Chicken, Grilled Chicken
Breasts and w ings. Roslyn's own Crab Casserole.
Walter Mattingly of Mardi Gras Grill who prepared
'Jambalaya Grits', expressed his delight at being invited, and
looks forward to coming back again.
"Michael and I were so happy to table hop all around
Roz's lawn. We started the evening with Chef Israel Kite
who set the table with beautiful blue and white porcelain
place settings. We had silverware and crystal goblets with
blue stemware. We ate as though it was our last supper The
main entrees were Chicken Marbella with succulent dried
plums and crab casserole, ginger green beans, carrot souffle
like I've never had it before, rice pilaf, monkey bread and


topped off with a Million Dollar Pound Cake," said Marsha
Dean Phelps.
It was an epicurean feast at that table and everywhere we
looked. Schoolmates from as far back as the 1950s stopped
by to sample his wares and chat with guests. Guest, who
were already full, waddled over to Chefs Ron and Barbara
Breaker's table. .
Phelps said the Breakers served a Low Country Boil and
they know how to meld the succulent flavors of delicate
crustaceans ith corn and potatoes and sausages, etc. "
"It was just perfect. This was dished up in large individ-
ual aluminum serving pans. I should be ashamed to admit
that we stopped by Chef Dee Shaw's Children's Station
where we sampled the macaroni and cheese, honey barbe-
cued chicken wings, cornbread and potato salad, but we did.
By the time we recognized Chef Mattingly's Mardi Gras
Grill Station and the eight other stops we were too pooped
and ready to pop," added Phelps who writes for The Florida
Star.
NModels presented designs by Brenda Brunson Bey of
New York City. As a finale, a jazz number from Auntie Roz
honored us. A Silent Auction was held t6 raise monies for
theAuntie Roz Youth Production Company. Beautiful art
work, hand beaded necklace and hand painted African mate-
rial was some of the items available.
Hostesses included young people that have worked with
Auntie Roz in her "Peanut Show" and other various projects.
"Roz knows how to throw a party, art, live music,
dancers, models, designers, just everything for a stellar night
with friends for life. God's magic wand show's through
Roz's spirit,' said Phelps.

Ask Deanna! is an advice column known for its fearless
approach to reality-based subjects!

Dear Deanna
I'm a Christian and I thought I was happily married. I think
my husband may be having an affair with my cousin. He
hasn't displayed any signs of cheating nor has his behavior
changed. I looked at his cell phone bill and see that he's
been calling my cousin on a more than regular basis. It
pushed me over the edge when I came home late one night :;
and found him at my cousin's house eating pizza and
watching movies. Is there something going on or am I insecure?
Worried Christian Natchez, MS

Dear Worried:
It's amazing that as a Christian you have the Word, but run when the world slaps
you with a test of faith. Your husband doesn't need to call your cousin or any
woman unless it's business. He should also be home late at night. Yes something
is going on if you didn't know where he was and found him at your cousin's house.
Share your concerns and suspicions with your husband, suggest a few rules concern-
ing your cousin and keep it moving.

Dear Deanna!
I am over 40 and look very good for my age. I date younger men, love younger
men and prefer intimacy with younger men. My daughter who is 20 years old is
jealous of me and at times, we've competed for the same love interests. She's not
speaking to.me now because her boyfriend left her and now he wants to date me,
My daughter is important but she can't control my love life. Should I just let this
young man go to make her happy or keep him?
Good Looking Mom Los Angeles, CA

Dear Good Looking:
You may look good for your age, but there's nothing cute about scooping up your
daughter's leftovers. She's right to be upset and no man should make you this fool-
ish to not understand her feelings. You've obviously mistaken her embarrassment
forjealousy. You need to grow up and be the parent in this relationship and put your
daughter's concerns before any man. In other words, don't be nasty going behind
your daughter and you need to choose her instead of her boyfriend.

Dear Deanna!
I want to have a baby but my boyfriend is against it. He wants to wait until we get
married but he has no plans to propose soon. He has threatened that he will leave
me if I trick him and come up pregnant. My clock is ticking and I want a baby
before I get too old. I don't understand what the problem is and I am willing to end
this relationship if things don't change soon. How do I express the seriousness of
this baby issue with my boyfriend?'
Tanisha Jacksonville, FL

Dear Tanisha:
Your relationship is missing the word marriage, your boyfriend doesn't have the
title of husband and going ahead with your baby plan equals ignorance. Your
boyfriend should realize he can't be tricked into pregnancy if he protects himself
especially if your little clock is ticking. If he hasn't proposed on his own will, preg-
nancy won't change his intent or urgency. Face it, he's not interested in a baby or
marriage right now and you can either love it or leave it.

THE FLORIDA STAR THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE STRIVING TO MAKE DIFFERENCE.


VETERANS AND HEALTH CARE
By Congresswoman Corrine Brown


Health disparities affect all African-Americans, and the
lack of studies focused on African Americans causes a
lack of understanding of how illnesses affect minorities.

Additionally, veterans are further denied help because the
Department of Defense will use national security to deny
information that might help save lives for those exposed.
to chemicals that might not have any affect on the human
body years or decades down the road.

One example of this is Agent Orange. Between 1962 and
1971 In fact, the U.S. Air Force sprayed approximately
107 million pounds of herbicides in South Vietnam for the
purpose of defoliation and crop destruction.

Initially, the Department of Defense (DOD) maintained that only a limited number of U.S.
military personnel, such as those operating aircraft or troops engaged in herbicide spraying,
could be positively linked to Agent Orange exposure. However, in 1979, the GAO report-
ed that ground troops had also been exposed to Agent Orange, and the DOD was forced to
reconsider its prior statements.

Prior to 1981, veterans who complained of Agent Orange-related illnesses were at the low-
est priority for treatment at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical facilities because
these conditions were not considered "service-connected." The 1981 Veterans' Health Care,
Training and Small Business Loan Act elevated Vietnam veterans' priority status for health
care at VA facilities by recognizing a veteran's own report of exposure as sufficient proof to
receive medical care unless there was evidence to the contrary.

It is this policy that began to transform the VA into the receptive medical treatment facility
it is evolving into today. When doctors start listening to patients and understanding that
cures do not;come from Washington but from people working in the trenches, we can begin
to reduce the disparities evident to both minorities and veterans.

FIRST ONLINE LIBRARY FOR AFRICAN-AMERICAN POLITICAL HISTORY LAUNCHES

WASHINGTON -The first virtual and most comprehensive library on the political history and legislative legacy of African-Americans in the shaping of the nation's
deniocracy was unveiled last week during.the Annual Legislative Conference of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation CBCF). Called Avoice, or African-
American Voices in Congress, www.avoiceonline.org, is the product of a collaborative partnership among-CBCF, The University of Texas at Austin, Howard University
and Dell. The online educational portal provides a central source of information about historical and contemporary African-American policy issues important to many
Americans, and of particular interest to researchers, educators and students.
"Avoice represents the official history of the Congressional Black Caucus and much more," said U.S. Rep. Kendrick B. Meek (D-Fla.), chair of the CBCF. "We
believe that Avoice will promote civic engagement among youth through its rich content and interactive learning tools. In doing so, the Avoice site will benefit all.
Americans."
"Dell's sponsorship of this milestone project reflects our commitment to diversity and it is a unique opportunity to help educate the public about the contributions of
African-Americans to our nation's history," said Dell CEO Kevin Rollins, who introduced the new site during the event. "We are privileged to be a part ofAvoice and
will continue to support it with technology that can enrich the site content."
Avoice offers a unique collection of original Congressional and political papers from African-American legislators. Initial content also includes exhibits on the Voting
Rights Act, the Martin Luther King Jr. National Holiday Bill, the anti-apartheid movement and a history of the Congressional Black Caucus.
The CBCF's Annual Legislative Conference provides a national forum to develop strategies and solutions to public policy issues facing Black America. "It is most
appropriate that we launch Avoice during this conference," said U.S. Rep. Kendrick B. Meek. "Our conference theme this year is 'Changing Course, Confronting Crises,
Continuing the Legacy.' Avoice's historical content will certainly help advance our shared goal of continuing the legacy." Today, African-Americans represent 13.4 per-
cent of the U.S. population; 60 percent of black citizens age 18 and older voted in the 2004 presidential election, up three percent from the previous election. African-
Americans had the highest turnout rate of any minority group in 2004.

Black 9/11 Survivor Authors New Book -

Between Heaven and Ground Zero

As a survivor who escaped the crumbling Twin Towers on 9/11, Leslie Haskin bravely
relives the events of that horrible day to share her amazing story of hope and healing.













SAuthor Leslie Haskini

DallaslFort Worth, TX (BlackNews.com) As someone who was working in the World
Trade Center's Tower One on the morning of September 11, 2001, Leslie Haskin will
never forget the soul-searing images she witnessed or the horror she and so many others
endured during her long, panic-driven odyssey toward escape on that black day. In
Between Heaven and Ground Zero (Bethany House Publishers, August 2006), she shares
what really happened to those who struggled to find their way out of the quickly closing
doors of the tomb that was the doomed North Tower.
With courageous, laid-bare vulnerability and painfully honest openness, Leslie reveals the
details of her meteoric rise up the corporate ladder from a small brokerage firm in New
York to become one of only two African American operations directors for one of the
largest insurance companies in the country. Her love of the corporate life, the jet set, the
bright lights of New York and all the glamour of the Big Apple was bolstered by the perks,
prestige and power that her titles and corner office in Tower One of the World Trade
Center afforded. Everything was going her way-until it all came crashing down around her
on 9/11.
Between Heaven and Ground Zero discloses the harrowing details of Leslie's long jour-
ney toward freedom after the plane hit her building. Down flight after flight of stairs in an
almost mindless effort to reach some kind of safety, she struggled through the stench of
pouring-down jet fuel and chemicals, rusted metal and raging fires, past a decapitated
man and dozens of other dead and dying victims of the attack. In the midst of the bloody,
horrible carnage, she found herself calling out to God, a childhood friend long ago forgot-
ten amid the pride of her new life. He heard her and delivered her from the collapsing
inferno.

Suffering from severe Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Leslie eventually lost her home,
her career and her life savings. But with faith and medical help, she has emerged from
the symptoms of her illness to shine as a remarkable testimony to the enduring legacy of
hope. Between Heaven and Ground Zero is an unforgettable tale, steeped not in sorrow,
but in the overwhelming power of the human spirit to emerge victorious from even the,
most devastating tragedy.

BOOK EXCERPT:- "There was a woman, burned to the bone...I could actually see the,
ivory marrow. We tried not to stare, but as she passed down the stairwell, tears rolled and
mouths fell open. The burned woman trembled uncontrollably. What was left of her flesh
looked like it had been boiled and it was actually slipping off her body, just hanging there,
loose. In total shock, her arms were stiff and stretched out in front of her as if she were
imitating a sleepwalker and she never looked at a soul." -

said Taylor, who also had a 3-yard TD run with 3:13 to
play. :
Terell Owens made his presence felt.He finished
with six receptions for 80 yards and a score, but the
Jaguars held him without a catch through much of the
second half. Still. Owens keyed all three of Dallas'
scoring drives, including a 21-yard TD reception with-
1:54 to play that cut the lead the 24-17.
Jackson\ille recovered the onside kick and was
forced to punt. The Cowboys got the ball back with 51
seconds to play. but Dre\ Bledsoe's third-down.pass


was intercepted by linebacker Mike Peterson.
It was Bledsoe's third interception of the game and
gave the Jaguars their ninth opening-day win in 12 sea-
sons.
SThe Jaguars adjusted to the Cowboys' offensive
game plan and and held Owens -to just two catches in
the second half while putting constant pressure on
Bledsoe, who threw two. interceptions in the fourth
quarter.
"He was not about to run out there on my Jaguar,"
defensive tackle John Henderson said, referring to
Owens' famed pose on the Dallas star when he played
with San Francisco.
SJags DE Reggie Haw \ard tore his left Achilles' ten-
don and das lost for the season. ... The Jags looked like
they had little trouble replacing five-time Pro Bowl
receiver Jinmm Smith. Matt Jones caught five passes


for 71 yards. Reggie Williams had six receptions for 47
yards. Ernest Wilford caught three passes for 58 yards.
Dallas had nine penalties for 93 yards.

season-opening victory and will miss the remainder of
the season.

Pittsburgh.in a Minday Night game on September 18 in
Jacksonville.
"I'm looking forward to it," Jags cornerback
Rashean Mathis said. "It's my first game on Monday
night. I can't wait. I don't know if I can get any more
excited about playing, but it will be cool to play with,
everybody watching." added Mathis whose second-
quarter interception turned the momentum in the game,
as it led to a Jaguars touchdo\ n just before the half.

Of Gunpoint


Prayer Session

ATHENS, Ala. A woman and twoitoommates are accused
of holding her brother at gunpoint as she prayed for his repen-
tance, even firing a shot into the ceiling to keep his attention.
Randy Doss, 46, of Athens said he fled the house when his
captors got distracted and later \went to police, who were skepti-
cal at first because his story was so bizarre. But police said it
checked out. including the bullet hole in the ceiling.
"We found \where they patched the hole with caulk," said Sgt.
Trevor Hams.
Police said the sister, Tamnue Lee Doss. 43, Donna Leigh
Bianca. 37. and Ronald Daxid Richne. 45. who live at the Athens
house, were charged with unlawful imprisonment, a misde-
meanor. The two women were also charged with menacing, a
misdemeanor. All were released on bond.
Harris said Randy Doss went to the house about 7 p.m. on
Labor Day and at some pomt got in an argument with the two
women about religion. When they prayed for him, he laughed.
"They both got upset and pointed'pistols at him." Harris said.
"They wouldn't let him lea\e. Bianca fired one round in the ceil-
mg in the hallway a few feet from the victim's head."
Harris said the women tned to get Doss to admit things he
did as a child."She claims the brother wronged her years ago
when they were kids and she just got the truth out of him and
apparently wanted revenge." said Harris. "He says they would
not let him go. The sister says she was just trying to scare her
brother."The three suspects derned they held Doss against his
will.
"The door was never locked and he could have walked out
that door any tune he wanted to." the sister told the News-
Courer of Athens. "We never held him against his will."
Hams said Richie did not have a weapon but is accused of
blocking the door to keep Doss from fleeing.
Doss said he escaped the house about I a.m. Tuesday.
"We don't know if they were just playing games, but it is
ridiculous for men and women in their 40s to be playing games
like this." Harris said.

damper on a findraiser for scholarships by making off with near-
ly 350 pounds of porkburgers and hot dogs. police said.

Raccoon Forces Student

To Miss Homework
LARGO, Fla. Stephanie King had to tell her music teacher
that a raccoon was to blame for her missing homework. "I
explained that the raccoon fell from the ceiling in my bathroom
and it ran into my bedroom," the 13-year-old seventh grader at
Osceola Middle School told the St. Petersburg Times.
"Animal control came out to get it and they couldn't catch it
and they said we couldn't go in my room."
Stephanie's grandmother vouched for her story Friday with
school officials. "I told them she can't get her homework, her
books, because everything is locked in the bedroom," Natalie
King said.
The female raccoon and its babies crashed to the Kings' bath-
room floor Wednesday night. Until that moment, the family did-
n't know the roof was leaking, much less that a family of rac-
coons was living in their ceiling.
The mother raccoon escaped into Stephanie's room. It finally
made its way Thursday night into the trap set by Pinellas County
Animal Seivices officers, who picked up the critter the next
morning.
