Highlands County Sheriff's Detective John Chess went to Bartow with Avon Park Detective Jason Lister Tuesday and met with District 10 Medical Examiner Dr. Stephen Nelson where they made the positive identification. According to a release by Avon Park Police Chief Frank Mercurio, the determination was made based on bone features, identifiable clothing and witness statements. It was in November last year that youngsters playing along the shore of Lake Damon found a skull partially buried in the muck. Later, the area was excavated by crime scene personnel and additional remains were found as well as some clothing that was similar to that Davis had worn on occasion. It was Aug. 12, 2002, the 77-year-old Avon Park man climbed aboard his trademark three-wheeled bicycle and left the Verona Avenue residence where he had been staying. He later disappeared. He had lived at the home of Joe and Caretha Washington since the late 1960s. She was one of the ones who had been asked about clothes found near the remains at Lake Damon. "The clothes look like the ones he wore," she said. After he'd gone, Davis' absence was not noted right away. He was gone for the greater part of the weekend because the Washingtons believed he'd gone to the home of a family friend. "We thought he had gone to Mrs. Love's house," Caretha Washington had said at the time. "We didn't think too much about it until they said they hadn't seen him." It was then an intensive search began including the activa- tion of the "A Child is Missing" system. In all there were 1,100 telephone calls made in-a-grid area to see if anyone had seen the missing man. Following his disappearance, Avon Park police received several reports of a man who residents thought might be Davis See REMAINS, page 7A ~1- C KATARA SIMMONS/News-Sun Sydney Lott, 7, (from left) Genesis Moro, 8, Kelby Mahoney, 8, and Katie Smith, 7, made and deco- rated Easter hats Wednesday morning during Spring Break Camp at the Highlands County Family YMCA in Sebring.

Many chances available for those in search of Easter eggs By BARRY FOSTER News-Sun Easter arrives this weekend and that means egg hunts and there will be plenty of opportuni- ties to go in search of the brightly colored orbs all over Highlands County. For the fourth consecutive year, officials of the Sebring Downtown Merchants and Professional Association will host its annual Easter Egg Hunt. That event will be from 9 a.m. to noon and will feature games, music and dancing along with the annual hunt. "We're going to split it into segments," said DMPA secretary Diana Hirsh, who has been helping to organize the activities. From 9- 9:30 a.m. will be fun and games for the youngsters. Robby Viera and Tyler Hirsh have signed on to handle the disc jockey duties for the morning's festivities. To start with there'll be dancing and music. "They'll do the Chicken Dance, the Electric Slide, the Bunny Hop and that new Cha-cha Slide that is so popular," Hirsh said. Beginning at 10 a.m. will be the Easter egg hunt for those 4 years of age and younger, fol- lowed by an egg hunt for ages 5-8 at 10:20 a.m. In all, volunteers have stuffed 6,000 eggs for the event. Starting at 10:45 a.m. there will be prizes available for everybody else. "We call it our 9 to 99 division," she said. Those presents will be given away by a num- ber of different means. There will be a pinata See EGGS, page 7A A te By CHRISI New-Sun SEBR more tee some aul In an i free nati was est; urapnic aesignea oy KURBEK1 KITiDIC/eWS-Un iallenge to get is to telephone FFLEY )nly automobile accidents kill jicide, and it is suspected that ts are suicidal. protect troubled young people, a ine the I Care Hot Line - n 1993 so they would have access tc system regardless of the day of the week, or the time of the day. Unfortunately, this hot line was phased out of existence in 1995. Child advocates in Hlig hlands County, however, had enough faith in its usefulness to organize local support and reinstate the hot line 18 months later. Now called the We Care Hot Line, it is still free, but administered locally, entirely funded by pri- vate dollars. Staffed with volunteers, the We Care Hot Line has the staunch backing of the Children's Services Council, even though over the last five years there has been a downward trend in the number of teens Suing the hotline. For example, in 2000 there were 274 calls made, but last year only 162. "The numbers concern me," said Kevin Roberts, director of human services for Highlands County and executive director of ROBERTS the Children's Services Council, "but like Wally Randall, chairman of the school board, said, 'If we save one person, it's worth it.' See TEENS, page 7A By CHRISTOPHER TUFFLEY News-Sun SEBRING Governor Jeb Bush and his administration are reorganizing the structure coun- ties use in dealing with the state on early education issues. Traditionally each county has had its own school readi- ness (or early readiness) coali- tion, which served as an avenue of communication between the state and the local school board, and acted as a facilitator locally. For example, the new Voluntary Prekindergarten program will be administered locally by the coalitions. Bush's goal is to reduce the number of coalitions from the present total of 67 to 30 or fewer. Some people support this restructuring as an economic and efficiency improvement, but others say it weakens local control. One thing is certain, in order to have fewer coalitions, coun- ties will have to merge. The state left the details of this redistribution up to the coun- ties, which were to work out their own arrangements based on state developed formulas. Highlands County, after research and negotiation, entered into a merger agree- ment with Osceola County, but real differences have emerged as the April 1 signing deadline approaches. While the problems a smaller district has when dealing with a larger district were expected from the beginning, and there were significant differences in how the two counties deliver their services, it wasn't until the bylaws for the new merged coalition were discussed that a possibly deal breaking philo- sophical conflict emerged. The Highlands County coali- tion wants specific bylaws drawn up, which adhere to the letter of the law. The Osceola coalition prefers vague and generic bylaws. "I don't want to be involved with vagueness." Doris Gentry, chairwoman of the school readiness coalition, said. "We need to be very careful because it's just a mess folks." Kevin Roberts, director of human services for Highlands County and executive director of the Children's Services Council, voiced the coalition's concerns. "It's a shame to see the whole thing crumble over the bylaws," he said. "But it's a heads up that we have to be careful because they want stronger input. They're twice our size and think we're hay seeds. There are red flags, and it concerns me." The coalition voted unani- mously to explore the possibili- ty of breaking off the merger agreement with Osceola and joining with Charlotte and DeSoto counties instead.

Roberts, director of human services of Highlands County and executive director of the Children's Services Council, is a finalist for the 2005 Governor's Peace at Home Awards: Stopping Domestnc Violence. -.i....., The award provides the governor an opportunity each year to recognize the out- standing work that is being done throughout the state for victims of domestic violence and their children. This year's recipient will be honored at a ceremony in Tallahassee on April 11. Methamphetamines Residents, store clerks can help detect labs By PHIL ATTINGER Newfs-Sull SEBRING Methamphetamine labs are toxic, haz- ardous messes that require special handling by law enforcement and a lot of taxpayer funds to clean up. And more of them are showing up in Central Florida: "mom and pop" labs that only cover a lull in the steady supply from large West Coast or Mexico labs. According to Drug Enforcement Administration Public Information Office, Highlands County has the highest incidence of methamphetamine in the five- county area of Highlands, Indian River, Martin, Okeechobee and St. Lucie counties. Okeechobee was second, but statewide, Bay County in the Panhandle has the highest number of meth labs. Toxic labs In 2001, the DEA cleaned up one lab in the five- county; it was in Highlands County. In 2002, there was two in the area. By 2003, there were 15, and by 2004, there were 20. In January 2004, the DEA cleaned up a lab on Corvair Avenue in Sebring. The high volume of mate- rials and how they were stored in Mason jars lead the DEA to bring in a contracted hazardous materials team. The house sat near a day care two doors down on the other side of the street. One neighbor had been over- come by fumes while working on his lawn. Reportedly, the lab operators were burning the waste materials in a pit behind the house each night. A meth lab can produce 10 pounds of waste for every one pound of the drug produced. Lab operators will dis- pose of the waste wherever they can. As lab operators often use the drug themselves, they will get less cau- tious about keeping the lab secret. Sick users Methamphetamine is one of the most addictive drugs in use. It keeps people up for days on end one defen- dant even claimed to be up for 46 days straight. After only 24-48 hours without sleep, average people will begin to hallucinate and commit serious acts of vio- lence.

It literally corrodes the body from the inside out. Doctors may not see the full damage of these drugs for years, DEA experts said. Many users have "meth mouth" their teeth falling out from destroyed gums. Dental work alone on inmates and prisoners costs taxpayers thousands of dol- lars. Costly cleanup Hazardous waste from a lab costs the taxpayers about $3,000 to clean up, which is about 10 percent of what it would cost in the private sector without a gov- progress Ether Depending on the method used, the cooker may substitute lithium batteries for the matchbooks and anhydrous ammonia for the iodine. If people are seen purchasing these items in bulk in one pur- chase or subsequent purchases, there is a possibility they could be operating a meth lab. Always call law enforcement to inxesugate possible labs. than would d be normal. Dumping garbage in the woods or desened roads is a crime by itself. It also could indicate a meth lab, since people who have such labs would not want the \waste products associated with them. This would be especially true of muriatic acid bottles being tossed b) someone who does not have a pool. Anyone with information on methamphetamine labs or distributors are urged to protect their environ- ment, neighborhood, home and family by calling anonymously to the sheriff's office at 402-7200 or Cnme Stoppers at (800) 266-8477. emrnment contract. Small labs those that produce only a pound or less of the drug can cost $4,000-$ 10,000 to clean up, the DEA stated. That cost is passed to the defendant as part of his or her fine, but when the inmate begins paying it back after a jail sentence, very little is helping defray the cost of enforcement and cleanup. The U.S. Attorney's office has taken a hard line on prosecuting cases of crack cocaine or methampheta- mine because they are very addictive and have a high level of violence associated with them. Anyone even associated with a meth lab may end up with federal charges. Everyone taken to hospital from U.S. 27 wreck SEBRING At 12:52 p.m. Wednesday, a 1992 Toyota crossed the southbound lanes of U.S. 27 into the path of a 2005 BMW. The wreck sent both drivers and a pas- senger in the Toyota to Florida Hospital , in Seli,ng.., .; , Although the copy was cor- rect, the headline in Wednesday's News-Sun incor- rectly identified Senator Bill Nelson as a Congressman. The News-Sun regrets this error. Florida Highway Patrol reports that Rajneesh S. Dorsey, 18, of Sebring, was pulling out of Thunderbird Road in the Toyota, heading for the median to head north on U.S. 27. Meanwhile, Frances Curtis, 50, of Sebring, was southbound in the, Tli Tcane of the highway. Curtis' BMW hit the Toyota in the left front quarter, then crossed the northbound lanes, coming to a rest on the far shoul- der. The Toyota spun around clockwise and came to a rest in the center lane. Curtis wasn't wearing a seat belt, but Rajneesh Dorsey was, as was his passen- ger, Rosalyn Dorsey, 40. All three received serious injuries in the wreck, according to FHP reports. All three were treated and released. FHP charged Rajneesh with violation of the right of way. i% Be' Sprint offers DISH Network Satellite TV. The right education gives your child an advantage throughout his or her life.

Race weekend sees 41 arrests on drug, alcohol, and fight charges By PHIL ATTINGER News-Sun SEBRING By Sunday, the Highlands County Sheriff's Office had seen as many as 41 arrests on various charges at the Sebring International Raceway. Overall, however, the sher- iff's office had assisted in mov- ing and policing 165,000 spec- tators at this year's Mobil 1 12 Hours of Sebring four-day race weekend 5,000 more than last year, with few major inci- dents at the Raceway. Sheriff Susan Benton especially thanked the community for its cooperation, especially resi- dents and businesses that were affected by the traffic. Traffic flowed well, with no serious backups or wrecks. The biggest number of arrests were for possession of marijuana, one of those being sale of marijuana by Tyler Mallows of Chatham, Mass., who allegedly sold a marijuana joint to an undercover officer for $5 last Thursday. In the case of this and most other arrests, alleged offenders were not only arrested and charged, but deputies seized their race tickets as well. If they returned to the Raceway, they would be charged with trespass- ing. Four unnamed persons were charged with affray fighting - during the weekend. Two others were taken into custody for their own protection because they were intoxicated. Jovanie Cintron, 23, of West Palm Beach, was charged with battery. Three people were charged Saturday with under- age possession of alcohol, including Jack Conners Bumside, 18, and Troy Edward Clemenz, 18, both of Vero Beach, and an unidentified 17- year-old. William James Donahoe III, 48, of Bartow, was charged on Thursday with possession of more than 20 grams of cannabis and possession of drug para- phernalia, with bail set at $1,500. At 9:03 p.m. Thursday, undercover officers at the Raceway saw Donahoe sitting in the front of a motor home smoking what appeared to be a marijuana joint. They knocked on the door and Donahoe answered. They could smell the odor of burnt marijuana. They read him Miranda warnings and searched him. He had a small amount of marijua- na in his left front pocket. He told them he had more inside the motorhome. He took the detectives inside and pointed to a black overnight bag. One of the detectives removed about 24.5 grams of marijuana and found a blue smoking pipe beside the seat where Donahoe was sitting. The owner of the motorhome - Richard Jeffrey Wilkes, age unknown also was searched and officers found 4.5 grams of marijuana and a pack of Job 1.0 rolling papers on him.

At 5:11 p.m. Friday, an officer could smell burnt cannabis coming from a nearby vehicle, which had stopped for traffic at the Raceway. The smell got stronger as he approached the passenger side of the vehicle. When he looked inside, he could see partially burnt cannabis, so both Thomas Meador Barnett, 25, and Robert B. Kelley, 25, both of Atlanta, were removed and secured. While the two were standing outside, officers saw Kelley remove a plastic bag from his front waist and throw it to the ground.

As the officer passed, Turner allegedly kept his gaze to the ground and didn't allow his arm to swing naturally. ,,Since his shirt was baggy, the officer sus- pected he might be concealing something under it. He stopped and talked to Turner, who appeared to be keeping his right side away from the officer. When asked if he had anything under his shirt, Turner lifted his outer shirt and said no.

News-Sun, Friday, March 25, 2005 5 Cox talks about half-cent tax Lake Verona opening for Easter weekend, but If levy passes voters, it would give j I P YZ Tulane will remain closed By BARRY FOSTER News-Sun SEBRING Members of the newly formed Ivory Club heard from Highlands County Superintendent of Schools Wally Cox Wednesday night about the proposed half-cent sales tax slated to go before vot- ers in May. School officials have pro- posed the levy in an effort to start construction of new class- room facilities. Cox said the proposal is not so much in response to the recently passed class size amendment to the Florida Constitution, as it is a planning mechanism for pro- jected growth in the schools. "We are using a 3.5 percent figure," Cox said, "but I have talked with local developers who seem to think that is a very conservative number." The meeting was one of the first. of 55 presentations Cox said he has booked for the nine- minute PowerPoint presenta- tion with a subsequent question and answer session. In the initial presentation, viewers are told that currently the school system is serving 12,000 students. Of those, 2,600 are housed in temporary classrooms called portables. Over the next 20 years, it is predicted that those numbers will double. The board has proposed three solutions passing a bond issue, instituting impact fees or instituting the half-cent sales tax. Cox said none of the solu- tions would provide all of the needed funds. However, it is believed that the sales tax would come the closest. In the question and answer session, it was suggested that the school board consider achieving its goal through a blended system, such as using an impact fee on new construc- tion in addition to the half-cent sales tax. The idea was that new construction would be the main source of adding new students in the system. Cox pointed out that the pro- posed half-cent sales tax would have a shelf life of 20 years before it would cease. He called the consumer tax the "most fair" way of raising money, not- ing that the assessment would be paid by anyone purchasing goods in Highlands County. He suggested the proposed sales tax could raise as much as $159 million over two decades. The superintendent also, pointed out that the money would only be used for capital needs, technology initiatives and equipment for school oper- ation. Some members of the crowd wondered aloud what effect the additional half-cent tax would have on commerce. They noted that it would give Highlands the highest tax rate in the immedi- ate area. There are 58 of the 67 coun- ties that have an additional sales tax -- including Highlands' extra penny on the dollar sales tax for infrastructure. Of those 58, 15 counties have sales tax levies for school needs. Cox displayed tentative plans for how the money would be spent. those included the con- struction of new classrooms at existing schools to maximize student capacity and minimize the use of portables. He also foresaw the renovation of vari- ous sites to expand cafeterias and music and physical educa- tion facilities. .The money also could be used to replace roofs and air conditioning units and upgrade classroom equipment for voca- tional, fine arts and athletic pro- grams. Cox said this is the first time since the bond issue of 1969 that the school board has pro- posed such an initiative. He touted the system's record of school maintenance as one of the reasons that the buildings have lasted for so long.

Because of the structure of the sales tax, Cox said that many of the building initiatives could get started soon after the measure was passed by voters.

Lake Verona will be open in time for the Easter weekend but Lake Tulane will remain closed. This week officials from the Highlands County Health Department released test fig- ures showing that Lake Verona was within satisfactory bacteri- al levels for human contact. "I had one of my guys go and take down the no swimming signs," said Avon Park Recreation Director Tony Anderson Thursday afternoon. The lakes have been closed since November due to high levels of contaminants. Preston Colby, who has been testing the lakes for the city, attributes the levels of contaminants to flocks of seagulls that winter in the area. "They are the true snow- birds," Colby said. The seagull problem is only with Lake Verona, which is closed between November and the end of March. "It's such a problem, we just close it rather than to continue testing it," said Avon Park City Manager C.B. Shirey. Meanwhile, the bacterial analysis taken by Colby on Lake Tulane shows it still is not within safe parameters. It will remain closed until the bacteri- al levels reach acceptable stan- dards.

So, on Saturday, April 16, bicyclists can visit Highlands Hammock State Park, sign up, pay $10 and take a leisurely ride around park roads. The event will raise funds for the Hansen House, the county shelter for abused children. Miller hopes to get as many as will come from mobile home parks,, schools, churches, civic groups and individuals.

TI By BARRY FOSTER News-Sun AVON PARK Firefighters were kept busy dousing flames at the Las Palmas resort in the pre-dawn hours Wednesday. Shortly before 2 a.m., a call came in that a poolside building had caught fire. Avon Park police were dis- patched to the area of Canfield Street to investigate the possi- ble fire. Both Police Sergeant Sheila Wright and Officer Mark Wilbur responded to the call.

Moltz, 45,;of Sebring, reportedly ran off the road on his 1990 Honda to avoid a car that was back- ing out of a driveway. No charges have been filed. The Florida Highway Patrol is investigating the accident. The accident occurred shortly after 8 p.m. on DeSoto Road, about 500 yards from the intersection of Highlands Avenue. Police reports said Phyllis E. Angell, 71, of Sebring, was backing out of a private driveway in a 2001 Nissan to head in the opposite direction. According to the investi- gating trooper, a witness said Angell never crossed the center line and that Moltz had room to maneu- ver. Moltz's wife was follow- ing him in a car. After the accident, she immediately drove him to Highlands Regional Medical Center. He was later flown to Tampa General Hospital, where he was treated and released. The building was fully involved in flames when fire- fighting units arrived. The Avon Park municipal department received mutual aid from the Highlands Lakes Volunteer Fire Department. Although firefighters were able to quell the blaze within minutes, the units remained on scene for two more hours to make certain the fire did not rekindle. The poolside cabana had housed a sauna, bathroom and a small storage area for pool sup- plies. It is believed the fire might have been the result of an elec- trical problem in the sauna. There were no injuries in the incident. The preliminary dam- age estimate has been set at $50,000 to the building and $15,000 to the sauna. Las Palmas, a gated adult resort community, sets on 10 acres of property and is com- posed of 96 two-bedroom solid all-concrete villas.

The podium itself was pur- .chased out of proceeds from court cost and fines payments. It is capable o'f irunning DVDs, plugging in to laptop comput- ers, will display camera images or even display an overhead projection. Estrada said the overhead feature could be useful for cases that involve X-ray photo- graphs of a victim. IRe Estate "Fruitful" for ,. RCalt4,to a aest" Top Dol.6 Sr for your Property Today.

"The kids from 5-7 will be picking in the strawberry patch and the other children will have their designated rows through- out the vineyards," she said. The idea is to have an equal line and are not aware of its potential. Sheriff Susan Benton, who as a member attended the Children's Services Council meeting, suggested broadening the marketing approach to include other hot lines like the Crime Stoppers Tip line; by cooperating instead of compet- ing, both could benefit more people and each other. "We need to encourage kids to call in. Not just the ones who are suffering," she said, "but the ones in the know as well." She pointed out that prevention and intervention are a key to future success.

At 3:15 p.m. Keany and her husband, Donald, will put their pontoon boat in the water and begin the tour at the juncture of Josephine Creek and Lake Josephine. The Keany's have decorated their craft and have urged others to do the same. However, it is not a requirement. She said it was all for fun. "All my life I have been super silly now I'm a super silly senior," she said. But it's not all silliness. As part of her display, Keany car- ries a sign that says "Jesus is the reason for the season." "We made it at 3 p.m. so that everybody could attend their morning church services and then come out in the afternoon and do this silly thing," she said. Because she has been doing it for several years, the proces- sional is becoming a tradition and many people put lawn chairs out by the side of the lake, waiting for the Easter Bunny to come by.

PAGE 9A + FRIDAY, MARCH 25, 2005 Building houses that make the grade College students are working for Highlands County Habitat for Humanity By CHRISTOPHER TUFFLEY News-Sun SEBRING Rain couldn't stop 27 college students from framing a Habitat for Humanity home Wednesday. During spring break, the group came from Spring Hill College in Mobile, Ala., and South Connecticut State University in New Haven, Conn., to work in Highlands County. Crystal Hite, a junior at Spring Hill, was on her first build. She said she wanted to do something that would give her a sense of accomplishment. Last year she watched spring break fly by. "I'd heard a lot about (Habitat for Humanity), and I wanted to find some- My. thing to do this spring break that would end with something to show for it," Hite said. "It's rewarding to meet the home o owners and see the various stages of construction, to watch a home' be built." Laura Bowles, of South Connecticut, agreed. "I really like to meet the home own- ers," she said. "It makes the experience Spring Hill College really, really special especially when student Crystal Hite you meet the kids who are going to says that framing is move in." the most rewarding Bowles has worked on many builds part of building a over the years. "I love to frame," she house. said. Ann Agnew, of Spring Hill, has been on three builds. "I like the feeling of accomplishment," she said. "I like doing what we're doing today framing, putting the hammer on the nail." Colleen Bartholomew, another three-build veteran from Spring Hill, said she had done some of everything. Wednesday found her covered in dirt. "I like shoveling the best, as you can see, I like to get dirty," she said. The students arrived Saturday night. During the week they will have worked at six of the 10 Habitat for Humanities sites now under construction. In addition, six of the female students will join the woman's build for a day. The young people and their chaperons have framed a house and its foundation, built two sheds, and put down tile and sod. 'They're very organized here," said Maureen Bergan, director of .iiput- mini ti ic. at Spring Hill, a Catholic Jesuit school. "We ha\ e not stood around with nothing to do." rted Recliners Starting at just Rattan dining rooms at $S99 NEWS-SUN + SEBRING, FLA.

Thirteen people from Spring Hill College in Mobile, Ala., and 14 from SCSU have dedicated their spring break to helping to build three Habitat For Humanity homes.

PETERSBURG - Progress Energy Florida has recently completed its three- year Commitment to Excellence plan, achieving the major reliability and opera- tional improvement objectives as promised in February 2002 including: Improved employee satis- faction and OSHA injury rate; Improved reliability by more than 20 percent; Improved JD Power resi- dential customer satisfaction ranking; Increased electricity reserve from 15 percent to 20 percent; Reduced base rates 8 per- cent. Progress Energy was created from the merger of Carolina Power & Light and Florida Power in November 2000. After evaluating the former Florida Power's strengths and opportu- nities, Progress Energy Florida Chief Executive Officer Bill Habermeyer outlined an aggres- sive three-year plan to measura- bly improve customer satisfac- tion, operational performance and reliability, reduce prices, and raise employee satisfaction and safety performance the Commitment to Excellence plan. At the time, Habermeyer said, "Customer service is a pri- ority on which we will focus our efforts. We understand that we are not where we need to be, but our goal now is to increase customer satisfaction to a much higher level." Throughout the three-year effort, Progress Energy Florida issued annual "report cards" to customers in bills, community meetings and other venues so that customers were kept up to date on the company's progress. The star Special to the News-Sun Pioneers do not come from only one country as is illustrat- ed by today's story about an immigrant from Hungary named Bernard Fantus. He was -born in 1874, did well in school and wanted to go into medicine. At 17, his family moved to the United States where his father, a printer, bartered print work for admis- sion to the University of Illinois School of Medicine for his son. Fantus worked in pharmacies to help with expenses and received his medical degree in 1899. By 1901, he was teaching at his old school, specializing in therapeutics and research appropriate uses of drugs and medications. In later years he was nation- ally famous and was considered one of the nation's leading experts in therapeutics and pharmaceuticals, serving on federal standardizing boards, writing and editing 30 books and publishing in medical jour- nals. One of his biggest frustra- tions was seeing critically injured patients die because they needed blood but there was no one to give it to them. He had read about experiments in Russia using cadaver blood, but wasn't allowed to do this in the United States. He and some col- leagues set up a blood laborato- ry to find ways of keeping blood fresh and available for needy patients. He turned to experimenting with dogs in 1935 and perfected a system of preserving blood for 10 days or longer with refrigeration at 4 degrees centi- grade when mixed with a solu- tion of sodium citrate. He knew it worked but couldn't get the financial backing to support this storing system at Chicago's Cook County Hospital where he worked. Then in 1936, he saved a woman's life and her husband was so grateful he asked if there was anything he could do for the physician. The man was shocked when Fantus said yes; give me $500 to open a "blood preservation laboratory." Unable to raise that amount in the depth of the depression, the man went to 10 wealthy men and got each to pledge $50 to implement the plan. Fantus renamed his "laboratory" a "blood bank" thinking the word bank would more clearly con- vey its function to the public because it required blood deposits before doctors could make withdrawals for patient use. Once it opened, transfusions skyrocketed. Before opening Energy completes Commitment to Excellence plan "We're proud to report that we accomplished what we promised and more," Habermeyer said. Employee satisfaction and safety "Following the merger, we knew there was a need to focus on improving employee satis- faction," Habermeyer said., "There is a direct correlation between employee satisfaction and better performance, which then translates into more satis- fied customers." CTE called for efforts to enhance job satisfaction by increasing training, providing new tools to employees, and placing a greater emphasis on workplace safety. As a result, employee satisfaction as measured by the company's annual employee opinion sur- vey has improved. Safety was, and continues to be, the company's top priority. "Our injury rate was unac- ceptable," said Habermeyer. 'How can you be a focused, sat- isfied employee if you don't think your management is com- mitted to your safety? Maintaining a safe workplace in an industry where risks are ever-present is not easy. But it's something we are committed to continually improve." In 2001, Progress Energy Florida's OSHA injury rate ranked in the third quartile ver- sus other Edison Electric Institute utilities nationally. Between 2001 and 2004, the company's injury rate improved more than 50 percent. Reliability At the time of the merger, on average the company's Florida customers were without power for more than 100 minutes I . annually. Progress Energy had promised to decrease that num- ber to no more than 80 minutes by year-end 2004, and guaran- teed its pledge through a $3 million commitment to the cus- tomer if the company failed to meet the outage reduction goal. Progress Energy today filed with the Florida Public Service Commission, reporting the company had reduced the aver- age to 77 minutes in 2004, beat- ing its goal by three minutes. "Reaching our reliability goal is a credit to the hard work of all of our employees," Habermeyer said. "It's also proof that if you invest strategi- cally, and ensure your people are in the right place with the right tools, great things can hap- pen." Progress Energy invested more than $100 million in new facilities, replaced older equip- ment, .established a new tree pruning program, and invested in new trucks, technology and tools for linemen working in the field. To shorten outages and quicken response times, the company moved crews closer to customers through the addition of new operation centers in Longwood, Odena, Winter Garden and Tarpon Springs, and renovated other operation centers throughout its 35-coun- ty service territory. Additional renovations are planned. Customer service In 1999, Florida Power's res- idential customer satisfaction was ranked 49 out of 70 utilities nationally, and 16 out of 21 in the south region of the U.S. In JD Power's most recent study, (the former Florida Power) Progress Energy Florida ranks 18 out of 77 utilities nationally and five out of 15 in the south region making it a top-quartile performer. The company added 175 new pay locations and 1,000 tele- phone lines to its system to han- dle emergencies such as those experienced during the 2004 hurricane season. In 2004, Progress Energy also opened a new state-of-the-art customer service center in Pinellas County, which, along with the company's Lake Mary center, provides customers outstanding service with local employees. "The new center was critical in our storm response during 2004," Habermeyer added. "And it underscored our focus by providing our customers with more personal service from employees who live right here." The company also placed an emphasis on providing more accurate estimates for cus- tomers of when power outages will be restored. Additionally, customers now have new bill payment and energy efficiency options. Generation The CTE plan called for increasing Progress Energy's reserve of available electricity from 15 percent to 20 percent, which is vital in a high-growth state such as Florida. This was accomplished in 2003, when Unit 2 at Progress Energy's Hines Energy Complex in Polk County began operating. The company continues to maintain its 20 percent reserve margin and expects Hines Unit 3 to begin operating in late 2005 and Unit 4 in 2007. Progress Energy also completed an upgrade to the Crystal River Nuclear Plant, and by 2007 the company will have increased its total generat- ing capability by approximately 19 percent. t of the first Blood Bank the blood bank March 15, 1937, Medical Association, Fantus participating in ongoing lifesa Cook County Hospital did outlined for other hospitals the ing work when you get on tl about 40 transfusions a month organizing principles of a blood blood mobile or come into ti all directly from donor to bank and hospitals all over the branch.

As evidenced by prices at the gas pump, United States fuel costs remain volatile. This has impacted electric utility prices, but by using a diverse portfolio of fuels to generate electricity, Progress Energy has been able to manage rising fuel prices as well as any utility in the country. The company has not increased base rates since 1993. As part of CTE it reduced base. rates in 2002 by more than 8 percent, and added a new rev- enue sharing feature for cus- tomers. Because of the reduc- tion, base rates are currently at the same level as they were in 1983, and the company contin- ues to provide millions annually in revenue sharing to cus- tomers. What's next "While we may be wrapping up Commitment to Excellence, there's more to come." Habermeyer said. "Our efforts over the past three years have fostered a culture of excellence that will continue in all of our work and improvement plans for the future. We certainly have ' more work ahead of us. We need to improve our safety even more, and will continue to enhance customer service and reliability. We won't rest until our customers and employees are satisfied with our perform- ance." Progress Energy Florida, a subsidiary of Progress Energy, provides electricity and related services to more than 1.5 mil- lion customers in Florida. The company is headquartered in St. Petersburg and serves a territo- ry encompassing more than 20,000 square miles including the cities of St. Petersburg and Clearwater, as well as the Central Florida area surround- ing Orlando.

Jackson, both competition dance team members of Step-By-Step Dance Studio under the direc- tion of Amy Sims, received Scholarship awards at The Urban Jamm Dance Convention they attended in late January. Urban Jamm is based out of California, but travels the United States bringing well- known teachers/choreographers from the Los Angeles and New York area to teach dance stu- dents the latest dance moves and traditional technique. It is a team requirement made by Sims to attend at least one con- vention a year and to audition for a scholarship at these con- ventions. In order to be chosen for a scholarship, the girls must perform a routine they were taught at the convention in front of the judges and the judges choose a few girls out of approximately 250 students, who will receive the scholar- ship. They are judged on tech- nique, showmanship and execu- "Words cannot express how proud I am of these girls and all the team members, for their courage and drive to be the best they can be," Sims said. The scholarship will allow these girls to attend the Urban Jamm convention next year free of charge. "I think it is important to take my students to these conven- tions, because it gives them the opportunity to learn from 'star' choreographers, learn different styles of dance, meet other scholarships dancers from all over and gives them the chance to be inspired or to inspire other dancers, whether here at home or in other places," Sims added. All of the dance teams of Step-By-Step Dance Studio will begin their competition season mid-March, traveling Central Florida, to compete for titles, taking group routines, as well as solos and duets. The main objective the dancers are taught is to do their best but most of all have fun and enjoy the experi- ence of competition.

Highlands County has lost the old pine tree in front of the courthouse in Sebring. Pine beetles have gotten into the tree and killed it, County Administrator Carl Cool said Tuesday. Cool recalls old photographs of the courthouse showing the tree fully grown, which leaves him to believe the tree has stood there since before the courthouse was built. Some of the thicker limbs are between one and two feet in diameter, he said. David Flowers, Highlands County facilities manager, has put out bids with tree surgeons and hopes to have the tree felled by' the end of the week. The good news, Cool said, is 'Maybe we could carve a 'gator or some- thing.' ANDREW JACKSON, county commissioner that the county has planted sev- eral other trees on the lawn that will help serve as shade for county events when the pine tree is gone. Commission Chairman Andrew Jackson thinks the. county should consider having something built or carved out of the heart core of the old tree. "Maybe we could carve a 'gator or something," he said.

SFWMD to spend $750 million on water - quality north of Okeechobee By PHIL ATTINGER News-Sun SEBRING Highlands County may get some help with flood structures around Lake Istokpoga from the South Florida Water Management District. County Commissioner Edgar Stokes reported Tuesday that the water district plans to spend $750 million on water quality projects to the north of Lake Okeechobee, and about $1.5 billion on such projects to the south of the lake. He doesn't know what time frame that will cover, but he hopes that will include improvements to the flood con- trol at and south of Lake Istokpoga. When the flood control system filled up with water during the 2004 hurri- cane season, it left Lake Istokpoga full of water when Hurricane Jeanne arrived. The winds whipped up the water and sent it over it's banks into the side of County Road 621. STOKES Water washed over the top of the road and nearly washed the road out as it ran down the other side. Stokes said restrictions imposed to prevent erosion on a cypress head further south in the system meant that a struc- ture on the Lake Istokpoga Canal could not release more than 800,000 gallons a minute. Other structures are either under repair or being replaced, so the flood control system is not working as well as it should. Stokes said that SFWMD may look at other options with C.R. 621, including installing culverts to let water levels down. Yourneighborhood Publix will be closed on Sunday, March 27.

I'm not a native Floridian, but even before I came here I knew there was a bombing range in the area. I could be a little bias, since I'm a retired Marine, but I also know that the military needs training, it takes training to be the best. The Department of Defense has come along way in the area of protecting the environment and I feel confident with the environmental staff at the bombing range. Don't get me wrong, I think it is very impor- tant that a strong monitoring system be put in place to moni- tor the affects of the environ- ment in the area. But, let's give our pilots and bomb riggers their training so America can be safe. Dropping sand bags does- n't help train the military in arming bombs. Give them our support. Ed Dickerson Avon Park Politicians need to stay out of Schiavo affairs Editor: The Republican controlled Congress has trumped state's rights and family issues in vot- ing to overturn Florida courts in the Terri Schiavo case. The GOP is trampling on the Constitution and Congress has descended into playing judge, jury, doctor and God in this conflict. Hypocrisy and diver- sion sum up the latest GOP invasion into family matters. The irony of this incident is that Bush, who executed more men and women than any other governor, rushed back to Washington from his Crawford ranch to save this woman. There is more than meets the eye here. The Terri Schiavo tragedy is being used by Republicans to forward their anti-abortion agenda. Shame on them. Ron Lowe Nevada City, Calif. Peace comes within heart Editor: I think of how the govern- ments, not only our country but many others as well, continue to talk about peace and freedom almost makes me scratch my. head and wonder where all the sanity has gone to. Jesus says "He has come not to give peace, but rather divi- sion" (Luke 12:51). There is only one peace to be found on this earth and that is in man's heart. And that peace passes all understanding. When one comes to realize his lost condition because of his sins against the Lord God Almighty, he must understand he must be reconciled to bring about this peace. Christ went to the cross and gave his life for the sins of mankind throughout the entire universe. Easter is a symbol of a day of rejoicing for those who love and serve God never to be for- gotten! Friend, if you don't know the Savior, then you have no Easter! God loves you so much, don't let another Easter pass, it could be your last here on this earth, young or old. Russell Willsey Sebring Brain-dead woman testifies Editor: In my many years of living, I have seen some odd things. But today, I believe I'm seeing something that tops them all. A brain-dead women is sub- poenaed to appear and testify before and to brain-dead con- gressional (republican-con- trolled) committee. Makes no sense to me. How about you? Francis J. Carney Sebring People say 'no thanks' to Bush Editor: Over the past couple of weeks our great leader has been pottering around the country on his "Abandoning Social Security Helps America" Tour, and unfortunately his little jaunt is already suffering from poor attendance and cancellations. The majority of Republicans in -Alabama's congressional dele- gation said "thanks but no thanks" to an invitation to join the president during his stop in Montgomery, and Bush was forced to cancel his trip to Sarasota after even Rep. Katherine Harris, (she a mem- ber of the "perpetual Bush brown nose class") decided that having Bush stop by would be more trouble than it was worth. Meanwhile Republicans were busy making excuses for Bush, saying that he'd received "bad advice" on the Social Security issue, therefore putting the blame squarely on the shoulders of, um, someone else, I guess. Bambi Kokko Wailuku, Hawaii Husband has rights to make decision Editor: By now just about everyone in America is well aware of the life story of Terri Schiavo. As she lay for the past 15 years brain damaged and in a vegeta- tive state, her family and Terri's legally wedded husband have fought a continued legal battle as to whether she should contin- ue to be kept alive by the use of a feeding tube inserted directly into her stomach, or as her hus- band insists the tube be removed and his wife be allowed to die. Unfortunately the media seems to have inflamed the bat- tle by repeatedly showing a clip of Terri sitting in a chair with her eyes and mouth open and her mother poking lovingly at her daughter's hair. The clip is four or five years old and cer- tainly does not reflect the cur- rent condition of this unfortu- nate lady. The media appears to have further inflamed the public by frequently stressing profoundly "the doctors say if the tube is not re-inserted Terri will die within two weeks". Apparently God Almighty has no say in the matter (according to them). I argue that point by bringing to your atten- tion Isaiah Chapter 59, verse 1: "Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened that it cannot save, neither is his ear heavy that it cannot hear." I wonder if we, as outsiders, are in a position to say what is best for Terri Schiavo? When we consider the mar- riage- vows as written in the King James version of the Holy Bible, it clearly states "And the .two of them shall become as one." It seems indisputably accu- rate that Terri's husband has the "soul right" to speak in one voice on his wife's behalf. And now this corrupt gov- ernment in Washington with George W. Bush leading the pack has injected themselves into this personal and painful family issue that is none of their business, making it a political agenda that benefits only them- selves. George W. Bush would love to convince America and the world that he is a "conservative Christian" with high moral standards who wants only to protect Terri Schiavo's life. If this case were not so sad, I would say George is a joke. His lies has led us into a bloody quagmire in Iraq that has cost the lives of 1,532 Americans and wounded more than 11,000 of our people besides killing and wounding hundreds of thousands Iraqi people and he would like us to believe he has concerns for Terri Schiavo's life! George W. Bush is working on his image for the history books. Senator Tom Dulay finds the suffering of Terri Schiavo a comforting relief from the "heat" he is taking for acquiring large sums of money he had no legal right to and Martha Stewart lands in the slammer for being a successful business woman that told a lie! How many men do you know who lie so often in business they con- vince themselves they are doing America a favor and are pro- tecting their constituents? Senator Frist, a doctor who apparently lost sight of the heal- ing profession when he set his cap for power and the lust of the Presidency. Politics has taken precedent over mercy in Terri Schiavo case. Now let's talk about the "end time" of patients when tubes and life support is discontinued.

There have been times when Marie and I have been watch- ing something on TV, I feel an impulse to rewind to check something I missed or per- haps fast forward through a commercial, or maybe hit "pause" to take a break. Then I am reminded that we are watching on real time, and can't do that. The advent of the tape, VCR and DVD players in our gener- ation have wrought a change in our view of passing events. We are having a problem distin- guishing between, and reacting realistically to, what is real but fleeting and deserves our seri- ous and immediate attention, and what we can manipulate to suit our fancy. In principle, though, this is not new. We could go all the way back to Israel viewing the Promised Land. Blocked by fear and mistrust of God, instead of moving righi in at the appointed time, they want- ed to hit "pause" and think things over. When they were finally rebuked of God for their disobedience, they wanted to hit "rewind" and have another chance. Turns out they were operating in real time and couldn't do it. It cost them a whole generation to get a new opportunity; there was no "fast forward." The above passage in Hebrews harks back to God's displeasure with those Israelites for not obediently resting upon His promise, and it warns us all to be sensitive to His "Todays," realizing we are operating in real time. There is no "rewind" to go back and make things as they were; there is no "pause" to stop the march of time; there is no "fast for- ward" to get us over the prob- lematic or rough spots. What we have is Today. Today to hear His voice and try to dis- cern and act upon His real time will for us. Jesus said if we would fol- low Him we must take up our crosses daily. When you think about it, it's all we need to be concerned about, because it's really all we can do anything about. Not that we should not anticipate and plan as intelli- gently as possible, but how often have we had to totally rework those plans? But today is what's before us. He says to us as pertinently as He did to the Psalmist and the writer of Hebrews, 'Today, if you will hear (My) voice, harden not your hearts." It may be for salvation, it may be for some task or serv- ice, it may be for some person- al spiritual matter. But if He is saying "Today," it could be our only shot. Think about it! A.

For the media's benefit espe- cially, I would like for you to know the kind of care these patients receive, so that we may do away with the horror of suf- fering, starving to death and all other "stories" of what you imagine the end time of life entails. Patients are washed, kept warm and clean. They are turned every one to two hours, depending on the condition of their bodies. They are propped in a side line position or other position of comfort. They receive clear eye drops frequently if their eyes are opened for long periods of time. Their mouths are swabbed frequently usually with lemon and glycerin. Their throats are kept free of mucus and they are medicated with a mild sedation if necessary, according to the doctor's discretion. These patients usually sleep their way out of this world and into the next. They do not suffer as those hysterical crowds standing so piously and waving their Bibles and insulting signs would have us believe., I hope this will be comfort- ing information. You can rest assure this is uniform nursing care applied in hospice nursing throughout America. A "saline cap" is inserted in the patient's arm or other easily accessed site where medicine can be injected into the patient when necessary. Lastly, good advice is for all of us to write out our "end-time care" wishes, take a copy to the bank, have it witnessed and notarized. It is perfectly legal and binding. Make several copies to distribute to "key" people who will see that your desires are fulfilled. Una V. McLaughlin Sebring How will IOUs be repaid for Social Security Editor: The column headline indi- cates that Democrats are con- cerned about Social Security and well they should be. For years Congress has been dip- ping into the Social Security trust fund and replacing it with IOUs. Social Security funds have been loaned to the budget and replaced with IOUs that are worthless but counted as part of the Social Security trust fund. Those borrowed funds have been spent for everything from welfare to State Department foreign embassies. The current Social Security tax revenues this year will bring in about $575 billion of which $515 billion will be spent on Social Security benefits. The remainder of about $60 billion will be loaned to the federal government for more trust fund worthless lOUs and spent on federal government budget. When the crunch comes, and come it will, where will the government get the money to repay the IOUs? It never intends to, but the people are led to believe in the system. The "pay-as-you-go" system is a disaster waiting to happen. Under the current system, taxes will have to be increased by about 50 percent or benefits cut by 40 percent. A negative ratio of return is not acceptable. The present system is a drag on the economy. It reduces gross domestic product by about 10 percent per year. Take a good look at the social wel- fare state in the majority of European countries. The GNP is dropping annually while unemployment rises. A large majority of foreign population in European countries now live "on the dole" while unemploy- ment continues to rise. We have seen the fall of com- munism in the USSR and its close relatives of Fascism and Nazism as attempted in Italy and Germany. Yet many in our own country still believe in the socialistic idea that the govern- ment can do it best. That idea is a proven failure and will contin- ue to be. Individuals and fami- lies must recognize their own responsibilities to themselves and to our heritage. Dependence on the government for all things is a road to failure.

I live downtown, but that's way too far from the wild party at the Mobil 1 12 Hours of Sebring - I hear someone got drunk this year. The night before the big race, my friends and a cooler of beer stood around the flag pole, then went to Green Park to hear a band that wasn't playing. So, we started singing Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody." A little more beer, and we'd have nailed it. After that, I asked to sleep on a friend's camper floor. No room. "Why don't you sleep in your car?" It's in free parking, which also is "free camp- ing." I drove home, grabbed my sleeping bag and a change of clothes and came back. By 2 a.m., I'd fixed up the passenger seat for a nap and stepped out to get clothes from the trunk. As I shut the trunk, the car door shut. My keys were in the ignition, turned on so my phone also inside sitting beside my wallet - would recharge. I had a free calling card, hanging on the beads in the rear view. At the Highlands County sheriff's outpost and at the gate, no one had a door opener. 7 1 L LIFE 4ttinger "How about a locksmith?" Thumbs direct me to a hand-lettered cardboard sign with two numbers scrawled on it. A young man in a yel- low jacket lends me his phone. The first number is voice mail. The second number has life, but he said call back in 15 minutes. I wait, then call. He patches me through to Jason who talks with me for a few minutes, then said, "I'll be there in 25 minutes." More waiting at the gate, trading lock-out stories with guards and ticket- takers. The Polk County deputy got locked out of his squad car, once, and now carries extra keys in his shirt and his belt. Jason arrives. We drives to my car, where he pulls out an S-shaped heavy duty "coat hanger." "I hope this works," he said. "I only have one of these." I hold a faint yellow light on the window while he jams it into the window gap. Success. I grab the keys and wallet and we drive back to the gate for the ATM and his cash: $60. He said he wouldn't have come out, but I sounded sober, desperate and intelligent. Best two out of three. Raceway camping is still cheaper than a motel room. I beat the lines, got four hours of sleep and woke up to the sun bouncing off the side-view mirror. With a Twinkee and a Coke, I could have had breakfast.

The South Florida Community College sophomore hit for the cycle and threw a two-hitter on the mound in a 12-2 win against Madison (Wis.) Area Tech, then reached base all three times at bat in the second game, a 4-1 SFCC win. "It was a pretty good day for me, I guess," said Litsch, who hit for his first cycle on any level. "I'd never done it before, and I really wanted to, and it felt good." The University of Alabama signee tripled in the first, homered in the second, doubled in the fourth and singled in the fifth against the nation's 12th-ranked team in NJCAA Division II. "I'm sure it's been done (at SFCC) before, but it's awful nice to see it done right here," SFCC head coach Rick Hitt said. Litsch's 4-for-4 first game was just part of a 17-hit attack, also highlighted by multi-hit games from Brad Crone, Josh Welkes, Jeff De La Concha and DeWayne Bailey. "We haven't done that in a while," Litsch said of the offensive outburst. "That was big; we needed that." Yet with Litsch (4-5) on the mound, the Panthers (25-15-1) could have gotten by with much less. "I threw the ball well today," he said. "I struggled throwing first-pitch strikes, but everyone has their days like that." Dusty McGee (3-2) also worked through some difficulty as he scattered seven hits and gave up an unearned run in the third, but walked only one in 6'/ innings for the win. "Dusty McGee battled like crazy for us after giving up the early run, and (David Kellerberg) closed the door there at the end," Hitt said. "We've pitched really well mm op o & t- S, SCOTT DRESSELNews-Sun SFCC's Jesse Lits-h. connects with a three-run home run on Thursday, the second hit on his way to hitting ,0r the cycle in the first game. as of late." Hitt looked back e\ en to last weekend's losses at Miami-Dade as the genesis of a streak of strong, pitching performances that reaped a 5-3 win at state 1N6. 8 Seminole Wednesday and the sweep Thursday. The key, Hitt said, is for the bats to follow suit. "If we can get our hitters to really fig- ure it out here down the stretch, all the time, who knows?" he said. The Panther offense broke through in the fifth-against Madison starter Danny Plens (1-1) in the second game.

By SCOTT DRESSEL Sports Editor AVON PARK When you have a pitcher having the kind of day that Christina Morrow was having for South Florida Community College on Thursday, you need to take full advantage of it. The Lady Panthers didn't, however, splitting a double- header with McHenry College out of Illinois despite the fact that Morrow stuck out 23 batters, scattered five hits, walked only one and allowed no earned runs in pitching back-to-back com- plete games. McHenry, which was play- ing just its third and fourth games of the season before going back to Illinois to wait two weeks until the start of their regular schedule, got good outings from both of its pitchers holding the Panthers to seven hits over the two games. But Falla said it was more his team's approach at the plate that held the offense in check than anything the two pitchers did in the Panthers' 2-0 loss in the first game and 1-0 win in the second.

News-Sun, Friday, March 25, 2005 Senior Softball L.P. Marine upsets Central Security Special to the News-Sun LAKE PLACID Lake Placid Marine (9-9), the hottest team in the Lake Placid Senior Softball Association, upset Central Security 22- 18 on Monday forcing the Securitymen into a do- or-die situation this coming Monday against Seminole Tire (13-5). A win will clinch the 2005 championship for the Tiremen. Emery Graves and Gene Cole paced the Mariners with four hits each. Manager Stu Giem pitched the complete-game victory and chipped in with three hits of his own. Jim Lauzon and Jim Radcliffe each hit roundtrippers for Central Security (12-6). Eighty-seven-year-old league patriarch Dale Noe had a field day for Advanced Mobilehome Systems (8-11) against Yates Insurance (4-15), banging out four hits to lead AMS to a 22-12 vic- tory. Buck Gadd homered for AMS. In Wednesday action, Seminole Tire set up their big matchup with Central by defeating AMS, 23-15. The 'Noles rallied from early 8-1 and 13-6 deficits for the win. Dick Harmick notched his 14th pitching win of the season and aided his own cause with three hits. Billy Thompson had four hits, while six other 'Nole hitters had three hits each including Jim Morgan (two doubles), Glenn Minnick (double and triple), Howard Carney (double and triple) and Lucky Lespier (triple). John Miller had four hits and Ed Engler three hits to pace AMS. Also on Wednesday, Lake Placid Marine defeated Yates Insurance, 18-8. Recent Filipino returnee Roger Erlich had four hits for the Mariners. Doug Hammond also banged out four hits, including two triples, for the Mariners, while Bob Fox added three hits for the victors. sOciT ],CSsELNc, .R SFCC shortstop Della.'ne Baile, gets the ball just in lime to force out NMadison Area Tech's Ron Lindahl in Thursday's first game.

LE MANS Continued from 1B and his name is well represent- ed in LMP2 with no fewer than seven C65 prototypes (a total of nine cars in all for the French constructor). It will be interest- ing to compare the performanc- es of the different engines and tires, which vary from one Courage to another. In addition to the C65, win- ner of its class in the Le Mans Endurance Series in 2004 and more recently in the 12 Hours of Sebring, the presence of the new Lolas and the Luchini as well as evolutions from WR and Pilbeam has led to an increase in both quality and quantity in the LMP2 Category. In GTI, the major attraction of the 2005 Le Mans 24 Hours is the return of Aston Martin (outright winner in 1959. and absent since 1989). The British manufacturer's season got off to an excellent start with a cate- gory victory in the Sebring 12 Hours on Corvette's home terri- tory. The American make is the current Le Mans GT1 titlehold- er and will be out for revenge in the Sarthe with its new C6-R. In addition to the above- mentioned makes other presti- gious entries include no fewer than five Ferraris four 550 Maranellos and one 575 GTC - entered by teams that are accustomed to the topmost step of the podium. A Saleen S7R, another American GT, com- pletes the GTI field. Finally, the LM GT2 Category is more varied than in the past with a couple of Ferrari 360 Modenas, a TVR and the comeback of the Dutch GT, the Spyker C8 in Spyder form, plus the arrival of the new Panoz Esperante. They will be up against a formidable armada of Porsches, which is currently the make to beat in this category. In addition to the 50 entries, the Selection Committee has also drawn up a reserve list of eight cars. It will remain valid for withdrawals announced up to May 27, which will then be replaced by the reserves in their numerical order whatever the category. SPLIT Continued from 1B errors? It's unforgivable," Falla said. "Just lack of focus, lack of whatever, I don't know. I don't know what they're doing." One thing Falla did know was that his hitters kept trying to pull the ball when Osness was working the outside half of the plate with her pitches, which weren't nearly the veloc- ity that the Panthers see just about every other game. "The girl's throwing slow and they're trying to hit home runs and nobody on this team's a home run hitter," Falla said. "We've got a right fielder play- ing two steps off the (infield) and we never hit the ball to right field. Unless we learn that and they realize it in their brains, we're going to continue to struggle with the bat." The offense didn't get much better in the second game, although Wallace singled in the first and scored on a single up the middle from Ashley Congdon to stake Morrow to a 1-0 lead that she held the rest of the game as she struck out nine and didn't walk a batter until the final inning hef 14th of the day. Morrow, a freshman right- hander who has had to shoulder the majority of the pitching duties after the Panthers' other pitchers were all lost for the season for various reasons, struck out all 10 of the McHenry players at least once in the two games. It was the kind of perform- ance her coach has come to expect this season, the first for the softball program at SFCC. "Every day with her it's the same," Falla said. "I know what I'm getting every day with her. She's outstanding in the circle. No complaints. How can you complain when somebody's averaging eight, nine strikeouts per game?" Falla said Morrow is ranked ,eighth in the state in just about every statistical category.

Six of whom are women living in the commu- nities of Avon Park, Sebring, Lake Placid and Lorida. They have been found guilty of offenses from lewd, las- civious acts, sexual battery, to molestation on a minor. Among them are some considered as "predators" by the Florida Departrhent of Law Enforcement one of whom is a female. A number of the perpetrators are listed as under community control or supervised. In addition, they are those who are listed as having absconded proba- tion. Florida's laws states that "a sexual predator must maintain registration with the department for the duration of his or her life, unless the sexual predator has received a full pardon or has had a conviction set aside in a post conviction proceeding for any offense that met the sex- ual predator designation." The law also prohibits sex- ual offenders from establish- ing residence in another state or jurisdiction before report- ing to the authorities. A sexu- al offender who fails to noti- fy authorities of his/her intention to change address will be imprisoned. FDLE states that once the sheriff or police department is notified of a sexual offend- .er intent to live withn'a community, 48 hoctis after they receive the notification, "the sheriff of the county chief of police of the municipality where the sexu- al predator temporarily or permanently resides shall notify each licensed day care center, elementary school, middle school and high school within a 1-mile radius of the temporary or perma- nent residence of the sexual predator." Legislative findings: "Repeat sexual offenders, sexual offenders who use physical violence, and sexual offenders who prey on chil- dren are sexual predators who present an extreme threat to the public safety. Sexual offenders are extremely likely to use vio- lence and to repeat their offenses and most sexual offenders commit many offenses, have many more victims than are ever report- ed, and are prosecuted for only a fraction of their crimes. This makes the cost of sexual offender victimiza- tion to society at lafge while incalculable, Clearly exorbi- tant." In the wake of the recent abduction and subsequent murder of 9-year-old Jessica Lunsford by a registered sex offender John Couey, many are trying to come up with ways in which the where- abouts of these offenders can be more controlled/moni- tored. Some are suggesting that laws be past where offenders would be forced to wear ankle bracelets Following the reported confession of John Couey and the discovery of little Jessica's body, Jessica's father, Mark Lunsford through tears said, "She is home now ... and it's over ... I need support to change things." "As citizens become more outraged about these sexual See PREDATORS, page 6C U . NEWS-SUN + SEBRING, FLA. Photos by SHARON JONES/News-Sun P.T.

In 1981, with Michael Crawford in the lead, the Michael Stewart-Cy Coleman production worked its magic on Broadway. Director Kathy MacNeill was urged to do the show by her hus- band, Darin, who performed it in high school. "I got a copy of it," MacNeill said. "I enjoyed it, but the music sold me on it It's wonderful and uplifting." Although five of the six leading roles went to adults, the supporting cast is filled with children and teenagers, who learned to be tumblers, jugglers and aerialists. One girl taught herself how to juggle for the show, MacNeill said, while two more learned to twirl batons. Morgan Anderson, who had been to circus camp, came onboard as an aerialist and trained other per- formers, including MacNeill's daughter, Nicole Brand. And despite setbacks among the cast, preparations for the show marched on. "There have been three or four surgeries, one death in the family, little things that happened," MacNeill said. "No matter what happened, this has been the most family-like cast I have ever worked with. I would work with this crew again anytime." The Barnums The principals P.T. Barnum and his wife, Charity are being played by Chris Hayes and Deanna Pollard. Hayes has a musical background, but "Barnum" is Pollard's first singing role. MacNeill said she chose them when they auditioned together, singing a key duet from show how, "The Colors of My Life." "We really work well together," Pollard said of her rapport with Hayes. "We have a lot of fun together. .We joke. We tease. Basically, I decided I'm going to treat him like my husband. I think I get on his nerves once in awhile." Both. actors agreed that the Barnums had an inter- esting relationship being polar opposites who remained devoted despite their differences of opinion on every aspect of life. "It's definitely multi-faceted," Hayes said. "The interaction between Barnum and his wife is the part the audience will really enjoy. Barnum lives in a dreamland, and Charity brings him back to reality." Pollard said the couple had a modem marriage to some extent.

"She lets him do anything he wants, but not without hearing her opinion first," Pollard said. "You have to let people follow their dreams, but yet as a partner in that marriage you have the right to say whatever S L.i you want to have." i "aheir duet "I Like Your Style" has become h4 of Pollard's favorite numbers. It expresses the nature of their relationship that their love - for each other balances their differences. Supporting cast The other famous women in Barnum's life - Joice Heth and Jenny Lind are brought to life by Toni Ford and Jill Lockhart, respectively. Ford, who also appears as a blues singer and member of the chorus, said she is finally using her natural singing voice. A contralto, she frequently gets high soprano parts. "I've been singing in the upper stratosphere forever, and now I can sing in my own range," Ford said. "It's wonderful." Lockhart said Lind's role presented her with a dou- ble challenge. It's her first singing part and in her big number "Love Makes Fools of Us All" part of the lyrics are in Swedish. Cameron Reck, who plays General Tom Thumb, feels the exhilaration of stepping first role after appearing in the choruses of "Oliver!," "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" and "The Music Man." "It was a kid's part that I could get," Reck said. "I've been waiting for a good part to come along." In his upbeat solo number, "Bigger Isn't Better," Tom Thumb expresses his pride in being unique. Playing the ringmaster is Clell Ford. MacNeill said he brought energy to an impish role.

Reck likes to two 13-year-old art designers for draw. Friend likes 'Barnum: The Musical' to paint. And direc- tor Kathy MacNeill was forced to turn to the cast for help when the set designers she had planned use to became unavailable. "I asked the east if they could help," MacNeill said. "Cameron and Chris came through." The experience opened up another world of oppor- tunity for the boys, who ha'e each acted in three pre- vious shows. They were kept doubly busy as they worked on the sets and prepared for their parts at the same time. "It's not usually the kids who get to do something like this," Reck explained. "They have people come in and do it." Friend said Reck drew the set designs, while he helped with the painting. Other cast members and vol- unteers helped with construction, paint- ing and decorating the sets, "I like to paint. I can't draw. That's not one of my spe- cialities," Friend Chris Friend, 13, who appears said. "I like desig.r- here-in the chorus of "Barnum: ing.

Their set has several back- drops including the train that takes Barnum's circus on its first trip throughout the eastern United States. They) even painted the stairs leading up to the stage- for the first time ever in bold circus colors. Both boys said they were happy with the results. "There's minor, detailed things that need to be done, but all in all it's really good," Friend said a week before the show was scheduled to open.

Walt Disney's new "Ice Princess" tries to capitalize on the popularity of this sport, and this sparkly film could have been a big draw for general audiences as well as fami- lies. Instead, it skates on thin ice. Part movie, part music video, "Ice Princess" gets double B's for bland and boring. The first problem is the script, which doesn't have an original bone in its body. The second is the leading actress, Michelle Trachtenburg a decent skater whose act- ing talents are too slight to carry this film. Trachtenburg plays the ice princess, Casey, an awkward high school physics nerd who skates for recreation. To qualify for a college scholarship, she embarks on a science project that leads her to discover the aerodynamic formula for turning per- fect axles. In the process, Casey is smitten with competitive figure skating, and faced with a dilemma Is she going to live out her dream by sticking with the sport or get the Harvard education her mother (Joan Cusak) wants for her? The story unfolds with all of the expect- ed problems and solutions. When there's nothing to do or say, on comes the skating scenes and more vacuous pop music. 'ICE PRINCESS' Director: Tim Fywell Writers: Hadley Davis and Meg Cabot Cast: Michelle Trachtenberg (Casey), Kim Cattrall (Tina), Joan Cusak (Joan), Hayden Panettiere (Gen) and Trevor Blumas (Teddy) Released by: Buena Vista Pictures (2005) Running time: 1 hour, 32 minutes Rated: G Now playing: Carmike Cinema 8 in Lakeshore Mall, Sebring; 471-1179 The characters are unlikeable and extreme. Casey's competition, the popular figure skaters, are snobby, and every sports parent is an obsessive nut who drives their daughters to succeed. The skating rink coach, Tina (Kim Cattrall), is an ice queen herself, given to undermining Casey as often as she helps her. Naturally, Casey is bright and persistent, and she has her own ice prince waiting in the wings, a guy who secretly roots for her success while he waits to hook up with her. Carelessly made, "Ice Princess" has scenes that don't make sense like Casey's mother complaining that if she had gone to college she could have made some- thing of herself, then later rushing off to teach an English literature class., And it subscribes to the notion that con- frontation is good for the soul. Everyone in this film eventually gets read the riot act at least once. As the film winds to a close, these moments of truth rapidly pile up until you may start wishing that some of the ladies would keep their gripes to them- selves. The superficiality of the production can't hide Disney's real goal adding Trachtenberg to its growing fold of movie- girl Mousketeers. It fails. First Anne Hathaway got "discovered" in the "The Princess Diaries" series, and soon Lindsay Lohan will be out in what could be Disney's biggest hit of the year, "Herbie: Fully Loaded." Hathaway has an everygirl's real, clutzy charm and a huge singing voice, while the willowy red-headed Lohan has confidence, poise and knack for comedy. But Trachtenberg doesn't possess the acting skills of either of these girls, even if she did have a supporting role in TV's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Cute but vapid, she has a habit of looking confused and bouncing nervously whenever she delivers a line. The skating is adequate. Most of the actresses are convincing as Olympic wannabes the middle-ranked skaters who are better than average but will never make it to the top. The one find is 13-year- old Kirsten Olson, a real-life figure skater from Savage, Minn., and the only girl in "Ice Princess" who sparkles with personal- ity and showmanship. 'Hostage' drags out a cartoon scenario By SHARON JONES News-Sun Bruce Willis is the new Mr. Incredible. In an obvious attempt to resurrect his lucrative "Die Hard": series, "Hostage" finds the action actor back in the fray. Bent on rescuing two sets of captive fam- ilies one of them his own he braves bullets, fire, bad guys, power-hungry cops and heartless villais:-- everything except demons from hell, which would have not damaged this movie's credibility if they had popped up through the floorboards and brought "Constantine" with them. Only a cartoon character could take such a beating and come out unscathed. Then again, as "Hostage" seems to prove, action movie heroes are cartoon characters with- out the paint jobs. The set up is unoriginal but not bad. Jeff Talley (Willis) a Los Angeles hostage nego- tiator, withstands a grueling standoff with a deranged gunman only to see the victims get slaughtered. One is a boy he promised to save. To the dismay of his own self-centered daughter, who happens to be Willis' real- life firstborn, Rumer, Jeff literally heads for the hills to peaceful Bristol Camino, where "no crime" days are a matter of pol- icy. We know immediately there's no escape for Jeff. Like all superheroes, he has prob- lems balancing his day job with his domes- tic responsibilities, which means his family life is falling apart and he'll soon have to make a big, courageous sacrifice to get them back in his comer. That moment comes when three trashy teens rob a convenience store and go hunt- ing for a get-away car. They try to steal one from a rich family but then get trapped in the house, where they find trash bags full of $100 bills and no way of escape. Enter Talley to reluctantly save the day. But then some mysterious kidnappers snatch his family because they want him to retrieve a CD that is important to them. Of course it's in the house where the hostage situation is unfolding. This is where the story becomes a joke - big time by mixing a random hostage situation with one that would take extensive planning to pull off. And it's never ade- quately explained why the second set of bad guys just can't want for the siege at the home to be resolved before they quietly complete their business. All of the characters come to represent the stereotypes of the action-hero movies. Two of the teen criminals are in over their heads (think "Dog Day Afternoon"), while the third is a psychopathic dope-smoking sicko who has warped intentions for his teenage girl hostage. The other hostage-tak- ers represent the monied crime element that seems to have spare armored vehicles and helicopters sitting around in their garages. Just as grating is Talley another emo- tionally aloof lump who wins back his estranged family by expressing his passion for them in a single feat of bravery. As "Hostage" drags on, the danger increases along with the explosions. This stuff can be done well it was in Robert Rodrigues' campy "Once Upon a Time in 'HOSTAGE' Director: Florent Siri Writer: Doug Richardson; based on the novel by Robert Crais Cast: Bruce Willis (Jeff Talley), Kevin Pollack (Walter Smith), Michelle Horn (Jennifer Smith), Ben Foster (Mars), Jonathan Tucker (Dennis), Marshall Allman (Kevin), Serena Scott Thomas (Jane Talley) and Rumer Willis (Amanda Talley) Released by: Miramax Films (2005) Running time: 1 hour, 57 minutes Rated: R for strong graphic violence, lan- guage and some drug use Now playing: Carmike Cinema 8 in Lakeshore Mall, Sebring; 471-1179 Mexico" but "Hostage" has no sense humor. The fact that it thinks it's a serious crime story magnifies how ridiculous it is. Willis is his regular self still a capti- vating actor, even though in "Hostage" he reverts to some of the physical ticks that tend to dog his performances and that he once seemed to have overcome. The rest of the cast fades, except for young Jimmy Bennett who plays one of the hostages, Tommy. Once he starts battling his captors in his own fashion, he becomes the movie's most watchable character. When the movie ends, though, audiences are likely to feel some empathy with the hostages and be happy their ordeal is also over. a N "o-f t. .m .- ( a If e r - .-- 4b -- mm ..'.,.Copyrighted Material -- -v--- r Syndicated Content P SAvailable from Commercial News Providers" -- .

May joy rise from the depths of every grief and move the lips of praise in the memory of the hope that springs eternal in every human breast. May every sleeping hope waken to the feel of Christ walking in the garden of each heart. Give bright smiles and kindliness, the helping hand, the loving thought, the friendly word of praise.

Barnum - from the creation of his first sideshow act to his partnership with James Bailey. Born in Bethel;, Conn., on July 5, 1810, Barnum held odd jobs before he found his calling - marketing sensational sideshows that featured attrac- tions too bizarre to be believed. His first conquest was Joice Heath, a slave, who he bought and marketed as the 160-year-old nursemaid of George Washington the oldest woman in the world. When Heth died, she was found to be in her 80s. By then, Barnum's had earned a solid rep- utation for being a skillful pro- moter of oddities and scams - and a fortune.. Toni Ford, who plays Heth, sympathized with her character's plight. "I like character parts, and Joice is a character to the Nth degree," Ford said. "She was an entertainer. And Barnum had some good arguments to make sure she did what he wanted her to do: 'That sidewalk looks hard, and you don't want to sleep there tonight'" Barnum went on to buy Scudder's American Museum in New York in 1841, where he con- BARNUM Continued from 1C chased a week before opening, some remain available, espe- cially during this Easter week- end. MacNeill pointed out that fish and vegetarian meals are available for those who don't prefer prime rib. Those meals should be requested when pur- chasing tickets. During show nights, Toby's Clowns will be entertaining and making balloon animals before the curtain, rises an extra touch that will add a cir- cus-like atmosphere to the pro- duction. And "Barnum" is sponsored by the News-Sun. All in all, "Barnum" should reflect the circus promoter's sense of style by bringing together a show that the whole fainily can enjoy and, for a few hours, recreating the magic of "The Greatest Show on Earth." solidated his collection of strange historical artifacts like strands of hair reputed to have come from the head of Pocahontas as well as "freaks" such as Chen and Eng, conjoined twins from Thailand, and the Feejee Mermaid, who later proved, unsurprisingly, to be a hoax. The occasion, captured in "The Museum Song," gives Chris Hayes a chance to shine as Barnum. "He has just opened the muse- um, and he's describing all the attractions that he has," Hayes said. "It's a very fast song. It's fun to sing." Eventually, Barnum added exotic animals to his menagerie and toured the world. Among his most profitable attractions: Jumbo the elephant and acclaimed Swedish opera singer Jenny Lind. But his most famous headlin- ing star anid one who made him rich in Europe alone was General Tom Thumb. In "Barnum," he's played by 13- year-old Cameron Reck. Through the play and his own research, Reck discovered that his character was not a general or a dwarf and that his real name was not Tom Thumb. He was, in actuality, a normal boy I il mlu I I~ who weighed 9 pounds at birth but only grew to 25 inches in height "He didn't look like a dwarf. He was perfectly proportioned," Reck said. "He had a great atti- tude about his height, and never let anything get to him. He was a small giant, and he had a big impact on a lot of people." In 1871 Barnum created what he called "The Greatest Show on Earth." This production blended circus entertainment, such as clowns, trapeze artists, high wire acts and wild animals, with his own "museum of freaks" an assortment of dwarfs, giants and bearded women. In 1881, Barnum's circus merged with the Hutchison and Bailey Circus. Innovators to the end, Barnum and his new part- ner, James Bailey, developed the three-ring circus expanding on the European tradition of a single ring. Barnum died on April 7, 1891, at the age of 80. Bailey, survived him by 16 years, and upon his death the Barnum and Bailey Circus was sold to the Ringling Brothers. Remnants of the Barnum cir- cus can be seen today at the Circus Museum, part of the John and Mabel Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota. -E Outpatient Imaging CentAr offering the fo, wing services: Mammography C.T.

At that | moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth A M shook and the rocks split. The tombs WITH broke open and the bodies of many holy Rev. I people who had died Ft were raised to life. When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earth- quake and all that had hap- pened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, 'Surely he was the Son of God!'"(Matthew 27:50- 52, 54) Many events took place dur- ing the days leading up to this day we call "Good Friday." Although they were observed by many, many people refused to see Jesus as he really was. They viewed him as an inno- cent victim, a foolish imposter, a powerless boaster, and even as a proud blasphemer. During his life Jesus gave people the freedom to see him as they chose. In death, however, he offered no such option. Those who were there to witness Jesus' last moment in this world and his passing in triumph to the next-Gentiles all-couldn't escape the conclusion voiced by their centurion: "Surely he was the Son of God!" (Matthew 27:54) When Jesus saw that he had done all his Father had asked of Joint Good Friday service is today LORIDA There will be a joint Good Friday service today at the Lorida Church of the Brethren at noon. Spring Lake United Methodist Church and others will be participating in this event. The program will be on the "Seven Last Words of Christ." Music will be present- ed by each of the participating churches. fI '---N ..-_ MOMENT ,HGOD Richard 7yffe him, he willingly gave up his life with a shout of victory. The world around him responded to the awful truth that the Son of God was dead. The earth trem- bled and shook at the news. The curtain that had long separat- ed the holy of holies from the holy place in the temple was torn in two, signify- ing that we now have direct access to the throne of our heaven- ly Father. Saints walked out of their tombs into Jerusalem, proving that Jesus' death had given final victory over death once and for all. All these strange and unnatu- ral events were witnessed by the Roman centurion and his detachment of troops. They had been through the thick dark- ness; they had seen Jesus for- giving his enemies; they had witnessed Jesus caring for his loved ones from the cross. Then they felt the earth move under their feet, as they saw Jesus yield his spirit back to his Father. Having been an eye wit- ness to the power of God mani- fested in this man Jesus, the Gentile centurion spoke words of faith: "Surely he was the Son of God!" Those of us who know the rest of the story rejoice that the Roman centurion was one of the few who truly saw Jesus as he was. Even death could not conquer the Son of God, as the empty tomb on Easter morning proved. How do you see Jesus? God willing, you see through the shame and humiliation, the weakness and suffering to behold him as he really is, the victorious Son of God! A blessed Easter to everyone and may the peace of our resurrect- ed Savior be and abide with you unto eternity. The Rev.
