Performance-based

diploma gets an 'A'

Getting into the

At the end of its first
semester, Sarasota
County's performance-
based diploma pro-
gram is earning rave
reviews from students
and adults alike.
BY GREG GILES
STAFF WRITER

The morning after Dr. Gary
Norris agreed to stay on as
superintendent he was back
in the classroom at 7:45 lis-
tening to students, mentors
and educators describe the
progress of one of his initia-
tives.
The district's Performance
Based Diploma program was
implemented at all Sarasota
County high schools this fall.
It enhances at-risk student
programs that already exist.

On Thursday, Big Brothers
Big Sisters of the Sun Coast
sponsored a charter bus tour
of the Venice High program
for its board of directors. The
tour gave the school a chance
to show off its showcase pro-
gram and its newly renovated
facility.
Formerly called New Deal,
the modified Performance-
Based Academy is a self-
paced, computer-based
approach.
"The program is for stu-
dents who may be at-risk,
behind in credits or just need
a different approach to learn-
ing," said PBA Director Craig
Faulkner.
"Kids see an opportunity to
get back on track. It's a second
chance you don't always get
in high school," he said.
The typical student in PBA
is a junior with poor grades
about to drop out of school.
The program supports its

own home-to-school liaison,
steers kids into career and
technical education opportu-
nities through SCTI and local
complete courses, and part-
ners with BBBS to offer a 12-
week mentor program called
Decisions to Win.
It's winning over both kids',
and adults.
"I wouldn't be in school if it,
wasn't for the program," said
Marlena, a senor who com-
pleted the program.
"I like it because you can't
go on unless you learn (the
material). Otherwise I would
try to get around doing the
classwork. Or I'd make up
stuff."
Venice High requires an 80
percent pass rate in each PBA
core subject before a student
is allowed to move on to the
next level. No exceptions. You

FDOT presents Venice

Bypass 'preferred plan'

Venice Isle Estates resi-
dents are still unhappy
a traffic light isn't being
inserted into FD.OT's
plan to widen U.S. 41
Venice Bypass from a
four-lane to six-lane
road.
BY GREG GILES
STAFF WRITER

Florida Department of
Transportation is moving for-
ward with its design phase to
widen 2.5 miles of U.S. 41
Venice Bypass from Center
Road 'to Bird Bay Drive, in
anticipation of funding that
could be at least five years
away.
FDOT's preferred build
plan was unveiled at a third
workshop at the Venice
Community Center on Tues-
day.
The plan is essentially the

same as that presented at a
March 16 workshop, with the
exception of three new access
points.
Additional access is being
planned north of Via Veneto
onto an access road fronting
Cramer Toyota. Another ac-
cess point was inserted across
from Arby's; a third across
from McDonald's at the
southern end of the bypass.
Noticeably absent from the
plan was a traffic light
requested by residents from
Venice Isle Estates mobile
home park.
Judging from the applause
given to park spokesman Paul
Atchison during public com-
ment, nearly three quarters in
the audience of 200 people
were Venice Isle Estates resi-
dents.
Atchison again pleaded for
a traffic light at Via Veneto -
the entrance into the park -
and additional acceleration
and decelerations lanes.

The county has asked
the state for relief from
a 'zero tolerance' policy
on incarcerating parole
violators. The request
comes only two years
after parole violator
Joseph Smith murdered
Carlie Brucia.
BYJACK GURNEY
PELICAN PRESS

Faced with jam-packed jail
cells and no political commit-
ment to provide more,
Sarasota County officials have
swallowed hard and asked the
state for relief from a "zero tol-
erance" policy on the arrest
and incarcer-
ation of pro-
bation viola-
tors.
On Nov. 14, a
Commission
Chairwoman
N o r a
Patterson
signed a letter
to Florida Patterson
Department
of Corrections Secretary James
R. McDonough that asks him
"reconsider" the state's get-
tough approach on violators by
allowing local judges to deal
with them on a "case-by-case"
basis.
The letter reflects an Oct.
10 commission decision to
temporarily reduce the daily;
jail population of more than
1,000 inmates, while it
begins to consider Sheriff
Bill Balkwill's request for a
new facility where sen-
tenced inmates could serve
out their terms.
In her one-page letter,
Patterson suggests that
almost 15 percent of the jail
population a daily aver-
age of 156 inmates are

parole violators who individ-
ually cost county taxpayers
$58 a day to house. She pro-
vided a list of county initia-
tives to ease overcrowding.
"The county has also start-
ed the process of planning
the next jail to keep up with
the impact of population
growth,," she stated.
"However, all of these efforts
are seemingly meaningless in
the face of state policies that
create a significantly large
burden on the jail popula-
tion."
No commitment
So far, the only steps
taken to provide more cells
have been a couple of inter-
nal meetings and the
employment of an outside
consultant. There has been
no commitment to provide
more jail capacity or build
the new facility Balkwill has
requested.
The commission's request
for local relief from the state's
"zero tolerance" policy on
parole violators appears to
fly in the face of public out-
rage after the 2004 kidnap,
rape and murder of 11-year-
old Carlie
Brucia by
Joseph
Smith, a
parole viola-
tor.
Television
talk show A
host Bill1
O Reil y Balkwill
seized on the
Sarasota'
tragedy to vilify former Circuit
Judge Harry Rapkin in a series
of broadcasts for not ordering
Smith's immediate arrest and
incarceration. Rapkin did not
seek reappointment to the
bench.
Commissioner Shannon
Staub raised the subject of
jail overcrowding on Oct. 10
and discussed programs to

empty cells that have
worked in other communi-
ties. County Administrator
Jim Ley suggested options
such as mental health pro-
grams and agreed to provide
alternatives.
Homet's nest
The state's get-tough poli-
cy was established in 2003
by former. Department
Secretary James Crosby and
reaffirmed this spring by his
successor, McDonough, in a
letter to field staff employ-
ees that stated, "I have
reviewed this policy and am
in full support."
While the state's policy
predated the death of Brucia
in 2004, and the murder of
9-year-old Citrus County
resident Jessica Lunsford a
year later, it became a focal
point for. shocked residents
who demanded that parole
violators be removed from
the streets.
As a result, state proba-
tion, officers have strictly
enforced the policy and
issued arrest warrants for
violators. The ultimate dis-
position of such cases is still
a circuit court responsibility,
wherein judges must decide
whether to warn or incarcer-
ate offenders.
Earlier this year, Balkwill
requested a new mid-coun-
ty booking facility for
arrests, and a new jail out-
side the city for 200 to 300
sentenced prisoners. The
problem is where to locate
the structure without stir-
ring up a political hornet's
nest with area residents.
In 1998, the county com-
mission considered poten-
tial locations outside the
city, listened to complaints
from Laurel area residents
who felt threatened by a
new jail facility at the landfill
and finally agreed to a 329-
bed downtown jail addition.

Mail delivery iffy to new developments

BY STEVEN J. SMITH
STAFF WRITER

If you're about to move
into one of the many new
developments sprinnging up
in this area, beware of one
fact the developer may not
divulge: There is a good
chance you will not qualify
for mail delivery until your'
development is at least 50
percent occupied.
Section 642.1 of the Post
Office Manual refers to the
expansion of city/rural deliv-

32 YEARS AND GROWING
Best Produce Co.
*, Live Music
';a-- NEW
BUILDING AVAILABLE

A

ery service to any area not
receiving delivery service, but
within the delivery limits of a
post office from which service
is already provided.
It says, "Delivery bound-
aries are usually smaller than
the ZIP Code .... New deliver-
ies would be considered 'Out
of Bounds' until extension of
service takes place."
This means the post office
can and will refuse mail deliv-
ery to new residents in a
development if at least half of
the building lots in the area to

be served are not yet occu-
pied.
According to the POM, if
there is a "reasonable expecta-
tion" that at least 50 percent of
the building lots inthe area to be
served are improved with hous-
es or business places within 12
months of the initial start of
grading and' construction, and
centralized box units are to be
used for mail delivery, service
may be allowed.
The manual discusses
other considerations and
applications, but one sticking

point remains: It does not
matter if the development
consists of single-family
homes, condominiums or
townhomes. If less than half
of the living units are not
inhabited, the post .office
reserves the right to refuse
mail delivery.
In a slow housing market,
it may take up to two years to
achieve 50 percent occupan-
cy in a given development.
That translates into a lot of
trips to the post office for first
residents seeking their mail.

A silver lining in the

global warming cloud

The Old Farmer's Almanac
says that global warming
won't be all bad.
It notes that warmer weath-
er is healthier, saves on energy
costs, produces more-abun-j
dant rainfall, helps plants I
thrive and will open up effi-
cient Arctic shipping routes.
Already, the Amazon forest
is growing back and there has .
been a 6-percent increase in
plants worldwide since 1980,
it said. Many of those sprout

weekly in Tropical Bob's back- -
yard.
Healthier? The almanac
says a few degrees of warming TROPICAL BOB
will cut deaths in the United ..IM7TI

Sarasota County Fire Department personnel douse a fire at the Brauhaus Restaurant, 1766
Tamiami Trail, early Sunday morning.

BY TOMMY MCINIYRE
STAFF WRITER
Generally speaking, a
phone call in the early
morning hours is not good
news. The call that came for
Brauhaus Restaurant own-
ers Silvia and Lutz Kuhn
Sunday at 6 a.m. was no
exception.
"The fire department said
our restaurant had burned
down," Sylvia Kuhn said. "I
thought this is not true, this is
a bad joke."
It was no joke. The
Brauhaus, 1766 Tamiami
Trail, was destroyed by fire.
The cause of the fire has
not been determined, but the
investigation is not complete.
"We lost all of our equip-
ment," Silvia said. "It was not
insured, but the building

was."
S. he said the total loss of
building and equipment was
about $200,000.
Recent inspection
Silvia said the fire inspec-'
tor went through the building
about six weeks ago and said
it was okay.
The Kuhns have owned
the restaurant for about
three years. Silvia, 33, and
Lutz, 45, are chefs. They
operated a restaurant in
Germany before coming
here about five years ago.
They leased the building
from Sharky's co-owner Mike
Pachota, according to Kuhn.
Pachota is holding a
fundraiser for the couple.
The fundraiser is sched-
uled for Saturday, Dec. 16,
from 12-4 p.m at Sharky's.

Pachota could not be
reached for comment.
Wondering
Meanwhile, the Kuhns are
wondering what is next for
them.
"I am trying to get a job,"
Silvia said. "Lutz is not in a
position to look for work
because he is still too upset."
She said she hopes that
an investor will show up,
perhaps at the fundraiser,
and offer them an opportu-
nity to run another restau-
rant.
Silvia said they may have
to leave the country if they do
not make any money.
The Kuhns have two chil-
dren, ages 3 and 6.

Circus Bridge has not so big growing pains

BYTOMMY MCINTYRE
STAFF WRITER

Don't blame the pigeons
this time it was a pesky
electrical problem that
caused the South Bridge to
malfunction recently and
cause a traffic snarl.
"The problem ... was iden-
tified as a clogged flow
valve/oil pressure switch
which inhibited the traffic
gate from rising ..." wrote
Infrastructure Corporation of
America's Ken Akers to Flori-
da Department of Trans-
portation Public Information
Specialist William Thomas Jr.
In English, that means the
gate switches were dirty so
General Electric, the subcon-
tractor, cleaned them. GE also
ordered new switches to
replace the old ones.
Akers said since engineers
figured out what the problem
was, the Circus Bridge has not
malfunctioned.
Dumb birds
Generally, pigeons were

the problem when the old
bridges refused to lock down
or otherwise malfunctioned.
The birds, not known for their
blazing intellect, would nest
on the flat locking surfaces in
the bridge mechanism.
Both the Hatchett Creek
and the Circus Bridge are
new (Hatchett Creek 2003,
Circus 2004). They were
designed with fewer flat sur-
faces to solve, or at least mit-
igate, the pigeon problem.
Bridges are not safe if
they are not locked down.
They must be locked down
so that the load caused by
traffic moving over them will
be evenly distributed.
Conversation starters
The Hatchett Creek
Bridge and the Circus Bridge
are owned by the state. The
Venice Avenue Bridge is
owned by Sarasota County.
The Hatchett Creek
Bridge was raised to 32 feet
from 14 feet, meaning fewer
bridge openings. There are
about 100 openings a

month, or three or four a day,
according to FDOT. The
bridge opened about 300
times a month at the lower
height.
There is a 17-step proce-
dure and checklist that
bridge tenders must follow
when opening and closing
the bridges.
A bridge opening is sig-
naled by one long and one
short blast of a horn, which
changes the traffic lights to
red.
A bridge closing is sig-
naled by five long blasts of
the horn.
Regulations prohibit a
bridge opening if there are
sustained winds above 39
miles per hour. Tenders also
aren't allowed to open the
bridge if there is a lightning
storm overhead because the
metal spans would act like a
big lightning rod.

Agriculture has positive public image

BY ROBERT BOWDEN
STAFF WRITER

How important is an
industry's public face?
Extremely, many argue,
and industries spend untold
fortunes each year on feel-
good advertising to make
sure they are perceived posi-
tively by the public.
If image is everything,
Florida's agricultural industry
must be smiling after receiv-
ing the results of a September
survey of public opinion.
Eight out of 10 survey respon-
dents had a favorable opinion
of Florida agriculture.
Environmental concerns
VWeren't even a problem for
florida's second largest
industry. Overwhelmingly,
those surveyed said agricul-
ture is being careful with pes-
ticides, fertilizers and food
safety issues.
Indeed, only the news
media got a black eye in this
survey.
Those surveyed ranked the
media last in believability
about farm labor issues and
food safety concerns. Most
believable? The farmers

themselves, the survey
respondents said.
The University of Florida
conducted the survey of
slightly more than 300 regis-
tered voters between Sept. 5
and Sept. 15. The survey was
done for the Agriculture
Institute of Florida, an indus-
try group that promotes agri-
culture for members.
Highlights of the findings:
80 percent of respon-
dents, had a favorable overall
'opinion of Florida agricul-
ture.
98 percent believe agri-
culture is important to
Florida's economy.
Half of the respondents
rank agriculture right behind
t.ourism. as Florida's most
'important industry.
65 percent think there are
health and economic advan-
tages to buying Florida-
grown farm products.
82 percent think farming
is safe for the environment.

Savvy
Florida Agriculture Com-
,,missioner Charles Bronson
was delighted with the survey
results.

"Floridians across the
board recognize the impor-
tance of our industry to the
state's economy," he wrote in
the survey booklet released to
members.
"The survey also shows
that Florida citizens are savvy
when it comes to making
choices about the food that
they buy. They overwhelm-
ingly see the benefits of
Florida-produced fruits and
vegetables. It is personally
gratifying to me as someone
whose family has been in
agriculture for hundreds of
years to know that the public
recognizes and supports the
value and contributions of
Florida agriculture, which
remains dithe second largest
industry in our state."
Another University of
Florida study concluded agri-
culture contributes more
than $87 billion annually to
the state's economy. Directly
and indirectly, agriculture
employs about 757,000 peo-
ple, the UF study reported.

Sales job
Perhaps it's not surprising
that agriculture has a warm

and fuzzy image among con-
sumers, but the ranking of
believable sources of infor-
mation on vital food safety
issues must have shocked a
few.
Information from farmers
was selected as most reliable,
followed by information from
government agencies. But
even advocacy or activist
groups scored higher than the
news media. Fewer than one
in nine respondents thought
the news media were "very
reliable."
What is most clear from
the survey is that agriculture
has done a good job of selling
its importance to consumers.
When asked the conse-
quences of decreased agricul-
tural production, survey
respondents agreed food
quality would decrease, there
would be more foreign-grown
food in stores, food costs
would increase and there
might be limited availability
of some food items.

Norris decides to stay

BY GREG GILES
STAFF WRITER

You can't say Gary Norris
walks away from a challenge.
The superintendent of
Sarasota County Schools has
decided to stay.
"I know that the road
ahead will be challenging, but
I am committed to working
hard with our newly config-
ured school board and, more
importantly, working hard to
regain your trust," Norris said
at a press conference Wed-
nesday.
The decision comes a day
after the school board voted
3-2 in favor of renegotiating
his contract.
Norris resigned Sept. 21
citing roadblocks to the dis-
trict's long-range plan. Since
then, he and the board have
spent time analyzing what
went wrong, and how to over-
come the obstacles that led to
his resignation.
The deciding factor was
the school board's favorable
consideration of remedies he
proposed Tuesday, said
Norris. He called the board's
willingness to participate in
Florida School Boards
Association boardsmanship
training a significant factor in
his decision.
In a show of reconciliation,
board chairman Frank
Kovach sat side by side while
Norris announced his deci-
sion to stay.
Earlier in the day Kovach
prepared comments to dis-
seminate to school district
employees through its voice-
mail system.
"The board believes our
students must continue.
down the path of progress
started under the NeXt
Generation Learning plan,"
he said.

Drug bust

on VHS

campus

STAFF REPORT

One man was arrested on
the Venice High School cam-
pus in a drug bust Monday.
Edwin Milburn, 18, an
unemployed construction
worker, was charged with sale
or delivery of cannabis within
1,000 feet of a school, posses-
sion of a weapon or firearm
on school property and tres-
pass with a weapon on school
property.
Nonlaw enforcement
sources familiar with the inci-
dent said Milburn was wear-
ing a trench coat and carrying
a large amount of marijuana
broken down into packets
when he was arrested.
Details of the arrest were
not immediately available. It
is not known how Milburn
gained access to the campus.
There was reportedly anot-
her man involved in the bust.
However, information on his
status was not available. It is
unclear whether he was aVHS
student.
Both the Sarasota County
Sheriff's Office and the Venice
Police Department have a
school resource officer on the
VHS campus.

"We believe our district
needs the consistency of
leadership that keeps us
focused on excellence. And,
we believe the roadblocks Dr.
Norris had expressed in
September can be overcome
by working together as a team
for the good of the district.
"We hope the turmoil this
has caused our community
will subside so we can get on
with the vital task of educa-
tion children."
Norris called his resigna-
tion in September a mistake,
and gave assurances he
wouldn't get frustrated and
bail out a second time.
"Since then there has been
a lot of communication,"
Norris said. "People have
expressed a willingness to
support NeXt Generation
Learning. (I've) regained my
confidence that people are

willing" to do what it takes to
move the district forward.
"Clearly, I lost that a couple
of months ago."
A detailed document will
be posted on the school dis-
trict's website called
"Roadblocks and Remedies"
in the near future, he said.
In staying, he hopes to end
the revolving door of the
superintendency position in
Sarasota County and bring
stability to the district.
The Sarasota County
School District has experi-
enced eight changes in the
top position in a dozen years.
The next step is to renego-
tiate Norris' contract. The
school board will take that up
next week.

Mine discharges threaten health of river

A major chemical company is operating the
Wingate Creek Mine around the clock. It has a
1975 permit to discharge oxygen-robbing nutri-
ents into the Myakka River tributary.

is the only active phosphate
operation in the Myakka
River basin," he said, "and it is
an accident waiting to hap-
pen. If the clay settling (pond)
area fails during a major
storm event, the Myakka

River will be environmentally
devastated."
ManaSota-88 has a long
history of 'filing legal chal-
lenges to stop environmental
abuses. If it takes on Mosaic's
operation of the Wingate

Creek Mine, the county could
join in the case to protect
what limited leverage it cur-
rently has with the company.
"What concerns us is this
mine only recently became
active again," Compton said,

"and it is not going away any-
time soon. We're not sure
there's much to be gained by
challenging Mosaic at this
time because its operating
permit is grandfathered in.
This is a tough one."

BY JACK GURNEY
PELICAN PRESS

A phosphate mine that
dumps pollution into the
Myakka River through a
Manatee County tributary
known as Wingate Creek has
Sarasota County water quali-
ty officials worried, but there
appears to be little they can
do to alter its operations.
The county commission
received a report about oxy-
gen-robbing nitrogen and
phosphorous discharges into
the river from around-the-
clock dredging at the mine,
and was cautioned it might
have to authorize future legal
action if nutrient levels rise.
The 7,500-acre Wingate
Creek Mine has a checkered
history. It is owned and oper-
ated by the Mosaic Company
(formerly known as Cargill
Crop Nutrition), which
bought the site in 2004 from
Nu-Gulf-Wingate Holdings,
LLC, after previous owner
IMC Phosphates went bank-
rupt.
What bothers county offi-
cials is that portions of the
Myakka River are already
considered scientifically
impaired from nutrients that
naturally drain into the river
and those released from mine
operations that have gone on
for almost three decades.
Grandfathered
In 1985, the Florida Leg-
islature designated Myakka
River as "wild and scenic" and
provided for preservation and
management of the 34-mile
portion that passes through
Sarasota County. But it did
not extend protection upriver
into Manatee County where
the mine is located.,
"The problem with this
mine is it has an old permit
from the state that is grandfa-
thered in," said Theresa
Connor, Sarasota County's
water resources general man-
ager. "There is only so much
legal leeway available to us,
but we have received some
concessions from the mine
owner."
Mosaic officials were asked
to provide water turbidity
monitoring, toxicity testing
and a reduction in the vol-
ume of nutrients it releases
into Wingate Creek. They
moved the mine's discharges
farther upstream to reduce
downstream nutrient levels,
and promised some monitor-
ing and testing.
"We did not get all the tur-
bidity monitoring and toxici-
ty testing we asked for,"
Connor said, "but we
obtained an opening clause
in the discharge .permit that
will allow us to challenge'
when the total daily maxi-
mum loads of nutrients
allowed in the river is estab-
lished."
'Tough one'
Sarasota County has been
working with the Florida
Department of Environ-
mental Protection to estab-
lish nutrient loads for all its
surface waters under the U.S.
Clean Water Act, and expects
to have a federally approved
set of Myakka River standards
by 2008.
In 1975, one of the mine's
previous owners received a
National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System permit to
drain nitrogen and phospho-
rous into Wingate Creek. The
permit has been passed along
from one owner to another
ever since and has ho expira-
tion date.
"The issuance of this per-
mit was a historic mistake
allowed by the Florida
Department of Environ-
mental Protection," said
Glenn Compton, a Venice

High School science teacher
and director of the local envi-
ronmental organization
known as ManaSota-88.

DIPLOMA from page IA

don't get at least "B" average,
you don't move on. Students
take elective classes on the
regular campus.
Giving credit
It's the mentoring program
BBBS officials were there to
learn more about.
Currently 106 students are
enrolled in the academy.
Each is required to match up
with a mentor.
"It makes you want to try,"
said Natasha, a senor in PBA.

"I can tell my mentor any-
thing on my mind. And I don't
have to leave my job."
"I can come and talk about
what I'm thinking. It helps me
turn a problem into an solu-
tion," said TJ, a senior trans-
planted from up north.
"It helped me reach out to
my dad who I hadn't talked to
for about three years. Now
we're talking," said Andrea,
another PBA senior.
"(My mentor) got to be my
best friend," Marlena said.

She credits her mentor
with helping her learn per-
sonal responsibility, and the
program for turning her life
around.
"It makes you understand
you can change your own
life," she said.
For Marlena, the self-
paced computer coursework
eliminated what she called a
power struggle between
teachers and herself.
"I was always fighting with
my teachers. I didn't like any-

body breathing down my
neck."
"It was very hard. My fami-
ly said I was going to drop
out. I said, 'No. I'm not.'"
She didn't.
Marlena entered the school's
at-risk program last year with
seven high school credits. Over
the nextyear she would go on to
earn another 171/2 credits.
Gem
"It's a gem of a program,"
said mentor Rev. Dick

Erickson.
While BBBS tries to match
each mentor with one or two
students, Erickson has 11 at-
risk youths under his tute-
lage.
"It keeps you in touch with
what's going on around you,
especially for us retirees," he
said.
"What impressed me so
much is how the program is
tailored to each student Even
each lesson plan. And there's
no tests. The kids usually like

that."
VHS Principal Candace
Millington applauded BBBS for
its partnership, and thanked the
students, mentors and school
staff for making the program's
first semester successful.
"It's a total change ... that
has brought renewed pride to
the school's at-risk program.
It's making a true difference
in our school."

FDOT from page 1 A

"This is a death trap,"
Atchison said. "We're not
against moving from four
lanes to six lanes. We see that's
needed. We (just) think we
have a right to fair access on
this road."
"This; plan shows more
concern for animals and arti-
facts than it does for the 1,700
people living in the park."
FDOT studied the intersec-
tion and found it hadn't yet
reached the point where a
traffic light is warranted, offi-
cials said.
Atchison called the studies
faulty because trip wire tests
were completed during the
summer, when a significant
portion of the park's popula-
tion is up north.
FDOT officials said their
tests take that into account.
The state, however, isn't"
entirely ruling out a traffic
light at Via Veneto and Venice
Bypass.
With funding at least five
years away and no sign of a
slowdown in building along
the corridor, FDOT officials
say it's possible by the time
the project gets the go ahead
a traffic light could be war-
ranted.,

FlIFTI T

"You have to be flexible
doing this kind of work," said
Cindy Clemmons-Adente,
FDOT public information
director.
Reevaluation
FDOT officials have been
updating a 1994 redesign
plan to the bypass. Back then
37,000 vehicles traveled the
bypass each day. By 2005 it
increased to 49,000. They're
estimating traffic will increase
to 54,000 per day by 2012, and
73,000 per day 25 years from
now.
FDOT originally estimated
it would cost $115 million for
the 2.5-mile project, requiring
18 business relocations and
impacting 59 other parcels.
FDOT reevaluated the pro-
ject with an eye on reducing
right-of-way acquisition
costs, and minimizing its
footprint.
New design estimates put
the cost at $75.7 million,
requiring about the same
number of relocations and
impacting roughly the same
number of parcels.
About $33 million is the
price to purchase rights-of-
way from area businesses.

Another $36 million is actual
construction costs, with $7
million more in design costs.
FDOT trimmed the origi-
nal 180-foot right-of-way.
plan back to 126 feet.
Planners saved valuable real
estate by cutting the median
width almost in half, and
reducing a 23-foot grassy sep-
aration between the road and
walkway to 5 feet along the
stretch from East Venice
Avenue to Bird Bay Drive.
The workshop, originally
scheduled for October, was
rescheduled to December 7
when FDOT officials learned
public hearing notices to resi-
dents within 300 feet of the
project had not received ade-
quate notice.
Public comment for this
phase of the project will be
accepted by FDOT until
December 18.
FDOT will take the feed-
back it gleaned on Thursday
and possibly make additional
revisions before bringing it
before Venice City Council for
their approval.

OUR VIEW

Welcome back, Gary

now get to work

We're glad Sarasota County School
Superintendent Gary Norris is going to stay.
We like him, we like his vision for the dis-
trict and we like that he has decided to
tough it out here even though he knows he
has challenges facing him.
But...
We have to be honest and recognize that
implementing Norris' NeXt Generation
Learning Plan is still an uphill battle. Unless
everyone involved in the school district is
willing to give a bit a lot, in some cases -
it just isn't going to work.
We'll start at the top, since that's where
the plan came from.
First and foremost, we need Norris to
remain committed to achieving the results
we want, but be more flexible about how we
get them. He must leave his Hamlet routine
in the closet, as a second round of "To be
superintendent or not to be" won't wash.
Specifically, Norris should use his consid-

erable political skills to get school staffs on
board the NG train. Not enough was done to
get "buy in" at the outset, so he needs to
make up for lost time and as we reported
Sunday, a number of teachers want him
gone.
He also needs to do a better job of com-
municating with the public. The district is
terrible at putting out press releases, and
Norris still has to bridge the credibility gap
created when he sat on information about a
shortfall in student numbers so as not to
jeopardize the' March school tax referen-
dum.
We expect more from the school board,
too. It also did a poor job on the enrollment
issue, and the members have been
detached from the schools and distant from
each other. We hope the presence of two
new faces will help both problems.
Next, the schools. We know they like site-
based management, but it's going to take a

team effort to lead all of our students into
the 21st century. Variation among schools is
good, but only if it serves the greater pur-
pose.
That brings us to the teachers. While we
think they have a point about being left out
of the development of NeXt Generation, it's
time to get over that.
The informal survey conducted by North
Port High School teacher Amy Krukonis
showed there are a lot of hard feelings
against Norris, but almost no one had any
specific complaints other than feeling they
were being dictated to by the Landings.
Criticism of NeXt Generation itself was min-
imal.
Teachers are making good money now-
thanks to Norris and county taxpayers -
and we expect them to act like grown-ups.
Yes, they are being asked to rethink how
they do what they've done for years. Isn't
that called learning?

Finally, there is everyone else. We have to
remember that getting student achieve-
ment where we want it to be is going to take
time and money. Our current education sys-
tem has largely been in place for decades;
we can't expect its replacement to drop out
of the sky fully formed.
On the other hand, everyone in the
school system needs to remember that nei-
ther our patience nor our money is unlimit-
ed.
We want to see improvement soon, and
we want it to be constant. We want all of our
.children to rise to the same high level, not
merely do better.
And we want to know the district is
always looking for ways to achieve those
goals at the lowest cost possible.
Remaking the school system to provide
all our students the education they need
today is a tall order. But consider the alter-
native.

Remember Rule No. 14

JOHN YUROSKO
GUEST COLUMNIST

I had the privilege of
attending a course at which
Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf
was a principal speaker. He
told a short story of a difficult
situation that arose when he
received his first assignment,
as a junior officer, to the
Pentagon.
While being briefed by the

commander whom he was
replacing, Schwarzkopf ques-
tioned how he, Schwarzkopf,
could possibly deal with the
myriad responsibilities asso-
ciated with that command,
and he was told, simply, "Rule
No. 13."
"And just what is Rule No.
13?", he queried. The reply,
"When placed in a position of
command, take charge."
Simple enough, he
thought. But after a few more
days of indoctrination, and
beginning to feel the signifi-
cance of this position, he
asked the commander, "How
do I know how to make the
right decision?" The reply
was, "Simple. Rule No. 14."
"And just what is Rule No.
14, sir?"
"That's easy: just do the
right thing."
Just doing the right thing is
something we all can do each
and every day. We always
seem to find ways to compli-
cate even the simplest of
tasks, yet, when we boil it all
down, in virtually every situa-
tion, all we need is to, "do the
right thing."
Simple and spontaneous
acts of kindness are examples.
How about taking an empty
shopping cart into the gro-
cery store as you enter,
instead of leaving one in the
parking lot to scratch some-
one's auto, or drift into an
empty parking place? Or how
about picking up that water
or soda container left by some
thoughtless person, or a piece
of litter blowing in the wind?
Why not? If you do, you will
feel pretty good about it, and
it was really no big thing. But
it was the right thing to do.
How about tobacco use?
There is no question there is
nothing beneficial with the
use of tobacco in any form; So
why do anything that is not
beneficial?
Of course, it is beneficial to
the tobacco concerns and
their stockholders.
All of us in the health pro-
fessions would be elated to
not have to deal with the
problems we see daily with

tobacco use. So, do the right
thing, and cease and desist.
Easy? No. Then again,
nothing that we do in this
world that is worthy is ever
easy. But, it is the right thing
to do.
This leads into another
area, namely courtesy.
Courtesy is a word we don't
hear of much anymore, and
see practiced even less. It is
the fifth tenet of the Boy Scout
Law.
Being polite and helpful
should be traits of all
Americans, without trying to
be either. So, you hold the
door open for another. Or you
park farther away than you
would like so another who is
less able has a shorter disk
tance to walk.'Or you take
your 12 items into the proper
line at the grocery store.
And you reply with a kind,
"Thank you," when someone
does hold the door for you, or
allows you to go ahead of
them in the shopping line
since you have only a few
items. And you will feel pretty
good about that, too.
We should always practice
little random acts of kindness.
The world would be a much
better place. And being cour-
teous is just another way of
doing the "right thing."
How about turn signals?
Why do people who drive
avoid using turn signals?
Because they only care about
themselves. Sound harsh? Yes,
but it's true.
If they really cared about
being a courteous driver, they
would always use turn sig-
nals. It confirms what their
intentions are, warns the dri-
ver to the rear as well as the
one approaching even lets
pedestrians who may wish, to
cross the street. Sure, it's the
law, but don't do it because it
is the law (though that is rea-
son enough), but do it
because it's the right thing to
do.
And let's talk about cell
phones. The phone compa-
nies will never complain
about overuse, but I will.
There are pitifully few rea-
sons why anyone must drive
and talk on the phone. It's just
one more distraction. We've
all seen the bumper sticker
that says, "Hang up and
drive." So true.
It is difficult for many just
to figure out where they are
going, which lane to be in,
where to turn, where not to
turn, when to speed up and
when to slow down. And if
that isn't enough, let's figure
out what to make for dinner,
or where I left the TV remote,
or whatever.
The point is, there are few
real reasons why one must
use the phone and drive. Pull
over, if it's that important, and
make your call. Don't com-
promise your driving record
and don't injure an innocent

LETERS FROM OUR take lead in insuranceERS
State should take"lead in insurance

EDITOR:
The time is propitious for Florida's legislators and regulators
to assist property owners with strategic actions to stabilize the
property insurance crisis.
Homeowners and small business owners ultimately pay the
price of insurance; let us help them control their destiny via
sound planning controlled by state-developed insurance mar-
ket structuring.
I have reviewed and studied the various data associated
with the property insurance crisis. The major insurers have
expressed their lack of concern, and property owners should
not rely on their "whim" of being viable insurance market play-
ers in the future.
On behalf of Florida property owners who are entitled to a
stable insurance marketplace, I offer the following recommen-
dations for reform: .
1. A state-sanctioned feasibility study for the creation of a
state-controlled property insurance enterprise that is the mar-
ket leader on behalf of property owners, and not a residual
market resource.
The parameters of the study should be designed by recog-
nized financial and insurance professionals who are'unbiased
and not pawns of the insurance industry lobby.
The study should also consider the expansion or restructur-
ing of existing state-operated insurance operations: Citizens
Property Insurance Corporation, Florida Hurricane
Catastrophe Fund, Florida Insurance Guaranty Association,
etc.
.2. Consider exploring the potential of joint ventures or
alliances with adjacent gulf states with the objective of "pool-
ing" particularly in reinsurance treaty management.

Nation is at stage one
EDITOR:
The death of a nation.
The Monday after Thanks-
giving, it was disclosed a civil
war is going on in Iraq,
although the Bush Gang
denies it.
Cher auctioned off some of
her Bob Mackie designer
dresses, boots and acces-
sories to donate to the troops
for body armor because the
$7.2 trillion debt incurred by

the Bush Gang has insuffi-
cient funds to protect the
troops in Iraq.
Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
identified the five stages of
death, which is occurring to
our nation, our environment.
Denial, by the Bush Gang
that Iraq has no weapons of
mass destruction. Anger,
which Americans displayed at
mid-term elections. Bargain-
ing, what is currently happen-
ing with negotiations with

Iraq, Iran, Syria and our newly
elected Washington.
Depression, which has affect-
ed our entire nation because
of the corruption in D.C. and
Iraq. Acceptance, that a civil
war is occurring and some-
one has to make a decision
about withdrawing the
troops, while the Bush Gang
is stillin the first stage of the
death of our nation, denial.
As whistle-blowers at the
federal level get fired, or dis-
missed, or threatened if they
speak out, the Whistle-Blower
Protection Act does not pro-
tect them from retaliation.
If it were not for-the media
keeping people informed
about pertinent issues facing
the nation or their communi-
ty, we would only allow cor-
ruption and injustices to pro-
liferate.
When someone does
something out of ignorance
you can forgive them, but
once their awareness is
heightened and they contin-
ue to do it, that's sinful.

EDITOR:
Hope this makes you all
laugh.
In the store today I was try-
ing to rhyme, "Tis the sea-
son." 'Po reasons for the sea-
son: "sitting by a fire with
popcorn and roasting chest-
nuts; being in the store with
shopping carts in your butts."
Ha, ha.
If another person gets right
up behind me and hits me

with their cart while I am try-
ing to put my stuff in my bas-
ket at the checkout, I am
going to say this out loud.
Have a good one.

What will the next
300 years bring?
EDITOR:
I watched from my back-
yard, looking at the planet
Mars, and it seemed appro-
priate to contemplate the
ancient and seemingly un-
stoppable need of human
beings to wipe out one anoth-
er.
Mars, the Roman god of

know that people are just as

what was once achieved by
swords and spears.
The next time Mars and
Earth brush past each other,
almost three centuries from
now, either we will have dri-
ven ourselves to extinction as
a species or, if you are opti-

how humankind finally man-

Well, excuse them for existing

What's the problem? This is
in response to the caller in
Let'em Have It complaining
about the young "punks"
roaming in the parking lot in
Galleria Plaza. Doesn't say they
were doing anything. I'm very
tired of the older people in our
community complaining
about kids. Kids have a right to
be walking around in the park-
ing lot, talking, joking, laugh-
ing. If they weren't doing any-
thing wrong or illegal, I don't
understand why the com-
plaint was made, and I'm very,
very sad that the elderly peo-
ple in this community have so
little respect and joy for our
young people. And by the way,
I happen to be a senior citizen
living in Venice, and I'm very
proud of our teenagers.
Safe. I was unaware that
moving the police range was
even under consideration.
This is an excellent facility for
both public and private use.
The public range is beside the
police range, is well super-

vised, a modern facility with
an excellent safety record for
both. Neither of these facili-
ties should be the subject of
consideration for a move.
Leave it. This is in regard to
the police firing range. No, I
don't think it should be
moved. The range has been
there long before the people
moved in, and if you move it
out to Laurel Road and
Knights Trail, they're going to
build out there, and then the
people will be squawking out
there. Leave it where it is.
Go away. The guy. who
wanted the gun range moved
should move himself. He
should take a long, long hike,
maybe go some place where
communists reign supreme,
like New York or New Jersey.
One other thing, the photog-
rapher who took that shot of
the police chief pointing the
gun straight at him is an idiot,
and she should never have
posed for that picture. Never.
It's dumb.

Unhappy with your Medicare Plan? Switch

BY ROBERT GOLDBERG
GUEST COLUMNIST

While the overwhelming
majority, of senior citizens are
happy with their prescription
drug coverage under Med-
icare Part D, some have real-
ized that the plan they picked
was not what they wanted or
needed.
But seniors who fall into
this category have good news:
From now until Dec. 31,
Medicare Part D will offer an
open-enrollment period,
meaning that recipients can
change their prescription
drug coverage to pick a new
plan that better meets their
needs.
Unhappy seniors should
jump at this opportunity to
switch. Many will discover
that insurance providers lis-
-tened to their complaints and
are now offering even better
plans than before.
For example, several plans
now cover the much talked
about "doughnut hole,"
meaning that out-of-pocket
costs have dropped signifi-
cantly. Many others have low-
ered the co-pay for drugs.
Finally, more plans have
added many new medicines
that were approved by the
FDA as recently as last
month.
All told,, seniors will have
more opportunity to lower

their out-of-pocket drug costs
and tailor their drug plans to
their medical needs. So even
seniors who are pleased with
their drug coverage should
examine their options.
Whether they want to sign
up for the first time or change
plans, seniors shouldn't delay.
This open-enrollment period
happens only once per year,
from Nov. 15 through Dec. 31.
This enrollment period
makes Part D different from
traditional one-size-fits-all
government health plans,
where there are no options.
Just look at the prescrip-
tion drug plan offered by the
Department of Veterans
Affairs, which lowers drug
prices and reduces costs in
three ways. First, by law, the
VA can command below-
market prices. Second, to
reduce prices further, the VA
limits the choice of drugs
through a national formulary,
which offers only 30 percent
of the drugs available under
Medicare. Finally, the VA
delays and limits access to
new medicines.
Every drug given "priority"
status by the FDA since 1995
is available under Medicare
Part D, but not on the VA for-
mulary.
For instance, there's a drug
called Gleevec that is now
first-line therapy against
stomach cancer, one of the

world's most painful diseases.
But before the VA will dis-
pense Gleevec to veterans, it
first must try an older drug
known for its harsh side
effects. Only if patients fail on
that medication can it use
Gleevec.
The VA also automatically
delays access to new drugs for
a year, regardless of whether
affected veterans will even
live that long.
That's why those who are
dependent on the VA system
lead shorter -lives and have
access to few of the newest
drugs.
The Medicare drug benefit
takes the opposite approach.
Rather than offing seniors a
single price-controlled gov-
ernment plan, it leverages
market forces to create com-
petition, which leads to lower
prices, better service and
more choices.
In fact, both Medicare and
the Congressional Budget
Office found that private
competition offers the same
savings as a government-run
system with more choice and
less bureaucracy.
Under Part D, private com-
panies compete for the busi-
ness of seniors. That's why
three out of four seniors.
enrolled in the,Medicare drug
program are satisfied, and
nearly three-fourths expect
their drug costs to stay the

same or decrease thanks to
the plan.
More than four in five
seniors say they've had no
problems getting their drugs.
And because of the program,
20 million seniors who had
no previous drug coverage are
now insured.
In the coming weeks,
.seniors should take advan-
tage of the open enrollment
period and sign up, or switch
to a new plan that better
meets their needs. And they
should pay attention to any
effort Congress makes'to take
those choices away.
Choice is what the new
Medicare program. and
better health is all about.

president of The Center for
Medicine in the Public
Interest.

Bagel shop coming to Indian Avenue

Supporting the cause

BY ROGER BUTTON
BUSINEWS COLUMNIST

Plans are being prepared
to greatly improve the former
gas station property at Indian
Avenue and U.S. 41 Business.
The adjoining strip mall
along Indian Avenue is to be
enhanced with a new facade,
and already one new tenant is
preparing to open: a NewYork
Bagel shop.
Intentions of the property
owner are to make improve-
ments to the existing strip
mall. He is talking to archi-
tects and having plans pre-
pared for a 4,000-square-foot
outparcel on the comer lot.
The building would have
retail on the first floor. Four
apartments of 1,250 square
feet suitable for workforce

housing would complete the
second floor.
"Beiqg close to the.hospital
the accommodations could
be invaluable to nursing
staff," said Steve Horn, com-
mercial Realtor for Ian Black
of Sarasota, agents for the
properties.
Maria Zukowski has leased
1,100 square feet at 140
Indian Ave., one of the center
units in the strip mall, which
will be a NewYork Bagel shop.
Originally from Poland,
she lived in New York for 20
years before coming to North
Port three years ago to join
Quest Diagnostics in Venice
as a phlebotomist. Her friend
Peter Sirangelo, a bagel baker
from New York, will operate
the store with her sons,
Thomas and Peter.

Baking will be done in the
shop, which will offer bagels,
muffins, breakfast sandwich-
es, coffee, tea, cold beverages
and candies.
"Our bagels will be boiled
before baking, giving that
special, different New York
flavor," said Zukowski.
The shop will be open
Tuesday to Sunday, 6 a.m.-3
p.m.
Zukowski hopes to
expand, to offer seating with
computer Internet stations.
'lanmg and permitting'is
in progress, the equipment is
ready to be installed and her
intentions are for the shop to
open before Christmas.

Lady Indians fold under the pressure

CLAUDE LEWIS
SPORTS EDITOR

5 Indians in

PAL Bowl
The annual Sarasota vs.
Manatee All-Star PAL Bowl
Game will be held Friday, Dec.
15, at Lakewood Ranch High.
Five Venice High players
will be playing for the
Sarasota squad linemen
Isaiah Carpenter, Mike West-
on and Dima Vasilevskiy;
linebacker Spencer Laps; and
kicker Ben Shipps.
The game will start at 7:30
p.m.
Proceeds benefit PAL
youth sports activities.

The FHSAA is investigating
Lakeland High star running
back Chris Rainey for alleged-
ly receiving gifts from fans
and businesses.
Receiving gifts is a viola-
tion of FHSAA rules and,
penalties could be forthcom-
ing if.
We wonder if the FHSAA
also prohibits receiving
Christmas presents.
A Miarrii Herald reporter
broke the story while doing a
feature. Why would the
Lakeland coach allow Rainey
to talk to a Miami reporter
before the championship
game, anyway? Or at least he
could have been there while
the interview took place. "
Lakeland's opponent in
Friday's 5A final is St.
Thomas Aquinas out of Fort
Lauderdale. Lauderdale is
located next door to Miami.
We've hit on this before,
but here it comes again.
Aquinas is a private school.
It can choose students from
anywhere. A lot of them just
happen to excel in sports. Not
just football, but across the
board.
Having Aquinas compete
against public schools in
FHSAA playoffs is not fair to
public schools. Just ask
Manatee.
The FHSAA needs to have
separate public and private
championships. The sooner
the better.

Some nights you'd rather
forget about. Thursday was
one of them for the Venice
High girls basketball team.

North Port.
Venice fell to 4-5 overall
and 2-2 in district play. North
Port improved to 5-1 overall
and 5-0 in district.
The Lady Indians were
outscored 19-9 in the second
quarter and had to play
catch-up.
Venice made a late run.

Ashley Riegsecker's 3-point
goal closed the score to 41-38
with 46 seconds left. North
Port iced it at the free throw
line, however.

Bobcats implode as Indians cruise

BY CLAUDE LEWIS
SPORTS EDITOR

Discipline is an aspect of
basketball that can be as
important as making your
free throws or boxing out.
Keep your cool in the heat
of battle, and you'll have a
better chance of accomplish-
ing your goals.
Lose your head, and things
become unglued.
It happened Wednesday
night at the Teepee, as North
Port imploded in the final
minutes and Venice walked
away with a 46-38 victory.
The Indians improved to 4-
2 overall and 2-1 in Class 5A
District 12. North Port' fell to
2-4 and 2-1.
It was nip-and-tuck for
three quarters plus between
the bitter rivals. Then it all
unraveled for the Bobcats.
North Port was cradling a
38-37 lead when Ramel Lee
was whistled for fouling Kyle
Jutras with 2:18 remaining.
Lee didn't like the call and
pulled his jersey out from his
shorts. That resulted in a
technical foul.
Jutras stepped to the free
throw line and sank three of
four, putting the Indians up

40-38. Each team missed
opportunities, bringing about
the defining moment.
With 1:05 left, Marko Askic
was called for fouling Jutras.
Askic protested the ball and
was subsequently T'd up.
Jutras made 4-of-4 to put
Venice firmly in control at 44-
38.
Bobcat head coach James
Slaton helped set the tone by
stomping his feet and remov-
ing his jacket when he didn't
get a call.
"We preach discipline,"
Venice head coach Steve
Cavallaro said. "It's not just
basketball. It's what kind of
person you are."
Venice had a balanced
attack.
Jutras, a sophomore guard,
finished with a team-high 15
points. He canned a couple of
three's in the first half.
Freshman forward Trey
Burtoh had 10 points. True to
his name, he also had two
treys.
Junior forward Tyler
Christian added six points,
including a layup in the final
seconds.
Senior guard Adamn Reams
provided a big lift with five
points including a huge

three-pointer in the
fourth quarter.
Freshman guard Justin
Grant and senior center
Charlie King added four
points apiece.
Although senior captain
Kyle Abney only finished with
two points, he showed leader-
ship by battling for boards
down low and handling the
pressure. Abney got clob-
bered on several occasions
but got no whistles.
North Port hung around,
largely behind the efforts of
guard Shaun Noriega. He fin-
ished with 15 points and
three treys.
No other Bobcat finished
in double figures.
Venice will play host to
Bayshore Friday night in
another district contest.

NORTH PORT (38)
Noriega 6 0-2 15, Askic 2 2-2 7,
Lopez 3 0-0 6, Bennett 1 0-1 2, Lee 1 0-

3-point goals: Noriega 3, Askic,

North Port 13, Venice 7. Fouled out:
Lee. Technical foul: Lee, Askic.

Last year, Kyle Jutras was
the new kid on the block on a
veteran Venice High boys bas-
ketball team.
With a huge chunk of that
team gone, Jutras suddenly
finds himself a sophomore
leader on a very young Indian
squad.
Two freshmen start and
another ninth grader comes
in off the bench.,
Sometimes, the 5-foot, 9-
inch guard finds himself the
go-to guy on the floor a far
stretch from a freshman who
saw limited playing time last
season.
Jutras led Venice with 15
points in Wednesday night's
victory over North Port.
"I don't think that I'm a
leader," said Jutras. "We all
look up to one another. We all
trust one another. It's all
about the team."
Venice coach Steve
Cavallaro calls Jutras the per-
fect team player.
"He'll do anything you
ask," he said. "It's always 'yes
sir.'"
Jutras is adept at handling
the ball both dribbling
and passing. He had a nice

shot from the outside. He also
fits in with Cavallaro's man-
to-man defensive scheme.
Jutras has been playing
hoops since the tender age of
4. He credits his father Robert
with getting him interested in
the sport. "He played high
school and college," Kyle
said.
Jutras played middle
school ball in Sarasota but
decided to attend Venice
instead of Riverview.
"It was because of acade-
mics," he said. "I didn't like
the atmosphere there."
Jutras likes math and
would love to play ball in col-
lege.
But he has a long high
school career still ahead of
him. And the best is still to
come.
"I learned a lot last season
from Ariel (Bonilla) and
George (Stritz)," Jutras said.
"This year, we're still develop-
ing. We've already come pret-
ty far. We still'have a long way
to improve."
Kyle isn't the only young
hoopster in the family. Sister
Kristen is a ninth grader and
played for the VHS girls team.
A younger sister Kelly-- is
a seventh grader at Sarasota
Middle School.

VENICE GONDOLIER SUN 13A

The Venice Inlet is full of surprises

BY DAVE HACK
FISHING WRITER

Last week, "Red Truck"
Tommy was fishing at the end
of the jetty. As he was retriev-
ing his shrimp, he feels like he
has someone's line. He checks
with the other fishermen and
determines that he doesn't
have their lines. Much to his
surprise he realizes that he is
tangled on a line and is bring-
ing in a rod and reel.
Now for the rest of the
story. He picks up the outfit
and reels it in and discovers
that a live and frisky pom-
pano is attached.
Here's another story that
happened last Friday. In fact, I
was supposed to go on this
fishing trip. "NY" Richard and
Scott Swiger saw breaking fish
at Snake Island across from
the Crow's Nest Restaurant.
Within minutes, they were
into 8-12 pound jacks. They
managed to land two of the
jacks. This is what surprised
me. They were eating bally-
hoos. I didn't think the bally-
hoos came inshore.
Their next stop was under
the Albee Road bridge. They
caught about seven bluefish,
each about 2 to 3 pounds.
Their next stop was the cli-
max of a great day of fishing.
They drifted through the inlet
with-live shrimp with a medi-
um split shot. Both rods were
in a rod holder. Richard was
using 8 pound line and Scott
12 pound line.
Rich's rod is bent over and
his line is zooming. He's play-
ing a nice cobia. While he's
playing his fish, they notice a
smaller cobia is following.
Scott makes a cast and imme-
diately hooks up. Scott's fish
runs over Rich's line and
Richard's line breaks. Scott
lands his fish and naturally
releases the undersized cobia.
The lost fish was about 38-40

At approximately the same
time, I arrived at the Venice
Municipal Pier and saw a fish-
erman playing a large sting
ray. He informs me that they
had two cobia hooked recent-
ly. While we're talking, he sees
his other rod (at the end ofthe
pier) bent over. He runs full
speed ahead and for ,a few
seconds has another cobia
hooked. Unfortunately, he
lost this fish.
Last Friday the inlet had

"hola" instead of "hello" because

they are excited about theirnew

Spanish teacher and the things

they are learning from her.

Lilina Rojas Linares of Peru is

teaching Spanish at VES under

the Fulbright Teacher Exchange

Program.

BY SUSAN CAIRO
STAFF WRITER

Lilina Rojas Linares
exchanged her position with
Jennifer Ewing, a \IES teacher
now staying in Cusco, South
America, with Linares' par-
ents.
The program gives teach-
ers an opportunity for year
or a semester to do a direct
exchange with a counterpart
in another country teaching
the same subject.
"Venice is a quiet place,
and the people have been

people in Miami, I prefer liv-
ing with people who speak
English all the time."
Linares enjoys her stu-
dents- and said she made a
deal with them from the
beginning.
"I told them that I would
teach them Spanish, if they
would help me with my
English," she said.
The students have not
only been helpful but are
quick to correct her pronun-
ciation
"Even the kindergarten
students say, 'what are you

school she taught at in Peru
and VES is the amount of
resources.
"I taught in a private
school, and we did not have
any of the wonderful res-
Ources the studemsn here
have," she said.
Linares said public
schools in Peru have a lot less
than the private schools.
When Linares started
teaching in her hometown,
she taught from experience
without the help of re-
sources.
-"I learned to become a
teacher by teaching," she
said.
Linares has an undergrad-
uate and master's degree in
economics from San Antonio
Abaddelcusco University in
Peru. She also has a teaching
degree.
Touring
Since her arrival in the
United States, Linares has
been to Washington, D.C., for
a dinner party with the
Fulbright Exchange commit-
tee. There she met other
teachers who have been
placed throughout the coun-
try. She was the roommate of
Jennifer Ewing. For four days
she was was able to tell Ewing

very kind," Linares said.
Linares is from Cusco, a
city near Machu Picchu over-
looking the Urubamba river.
"There are many cultural
differences living in Cusco,"
she said. "People stay in their
parents' home until they are
married."
Linares said there is a
closely knit tie with parents,
friends and neighbors in her
country.
She has been in the United
States since the beginning of
the school year and plans to
stay until the end of the
school term.
"I was happy to be located
in Venice rather than in
Miami," she said. "I wanted
the opportunity to improve
my English. Although there
are many, Spanish-speaking

saying?' and that is when I
know I have to correct my
English. They are the best
critics and the fastest learn-
ers," she said.
Linares teaches the stu-
dents Spanish songs that she
learned as a child.
"I love hearing my stu-
dents singing Spanish songs
throughout the school. They
sing songs that teach them
numbers, colors and parts of
the face," she said.
At the school's open
house, parents told Linares
they had no idea what their
children were singing. "But I
know they are singing in
Spanish."
Resources
Linares said the biggest
difference between the

about Cusco and her family
before Ewing left for Peru.
Linares plans to travel
during the summer.
"I want to see as much as I
can before I leave here be-
cause it is very difficult to get
a visa to visit the United
States," she said.
Sorry to leave
"When this semester is
over I will be sorry to leave,"
Linares said. "I will take back
so many wonderful memo-
ries."
Linares is pleased that her
students recognize her where
ever she goes.
"I was in Wal-Mart and
one of my students waved
and told her mother she is
my teacher, she is a REAL
Spanish teacher."

Veterans support one another

BY EDDIE ROBINETTE
SPECIAL TO THE GONDOLIER

The Florida Veterans for
Common Sense (FLVCS) has
donated $1,000 to the Haley
House in Tampa to help vet-
erans at James A. Haley Ve-
terans Hospital who need
their families nearby during
recovery from illness and
injury.
"As veterans we take seri-
ously the obligation to sup-
port the troops and their fam-
ilies," said Gene Jones, head
of the FLVCS, a group of more
than 100 Florida veterans,
mainly from Manatee, Sara-
sota and Charlotte counties.
"It is especially important
that we step up when the
need is right here where we
live with so many of our
young men and women com-
ing home from Iraq and
Afghanistan needing help."
The veteran's hospital
motto is, "The Price of
Freedom is visible here." One
of the hospital specialties is
the spinal cord, traumatic
brain and blast injury treat-
ment programs. With the cur-
rent as well as past military
actions, the center is treating
an increased number of these,
patriots.
For families living more
than 50 miles from the center
and qualifying for aid based
on income limits, the Haley
House Fund is housing the
families of these veterans
during their treatments. Hun-
dreds of families have been

supported so far. The staff is
all volunteer, so donations
will go directly to benefit the
injured and ill and their fami-
lies.
The $1,000 donation came
from an event earlier this
year. FLVCS brought author
Harvey Kaye to Sarasota to
speak about his latest book,
"Thomas Paine and the
Promise of America."
FLVCS presented the check
Oct. 27 to Dave Braun, head

of the Hillsborough County
Veterans Council and co-
chair.of Haley House Fund.
"It is urgent that the trau-
matized soldiers wounded in
the Iraq and Afghanistan
Wars with Islamic radicals be
given all the benefits possible,
so they can rehabilitate back
into society," Braun said. "The
Haley House Fund helps to
bring them comfort and heal-
ing by having their loved ones
at their bedside."

Contributions to the fund
are tax deductible and can be
made by going to haley

veterans and also helping

SBefore
becorhing pregnant, a
woman's body weight
centers over her pelvic area
and hips. Once she becomes
pregnant and the baby grows, the
center of gravity gradually shifts,
with more weight thrust in front of
Sthe hips. This shift leads to changes in
the alignment of the spine. And, as the
I uterus enlarges and expands forward,
the center of gravity is displaced, which
could cause muscle cramps and nerve
pain. These changes in posture put more
strain on the lower back and pelvic
areas. If a woman goes into pregnancy
with poor spinal alignment, it may
possibly worsen, setting the stage for
increased discomfort during labor and.
difficulty during delivery. Regular
chiropractic examinations during
pregnancy help ease discomfort
through delivery.

P.S. Lower back pain is one of the most
common complaints of pregnant women.

Babel
in an instant, the lives of four sepa-
rate.groups of strangers on three dif-
ferent continents collide. Caught up in
the rising tide of an accident that
escalates beyond anyone's control are
a vacationing American couple (Brad
Pitt, Cate Blanchett), a rebellious deaf
Japanese teenager and her father, and
a Mexican nanny who, without permis-
sion, takes two American children
across the border. None of these
strangers will ever meet; in spite of the
sudden, unlikely connection between
them, they will all remain isolated due
to their own inability to communicate
meaningfully with anyone around
them.

Blood Diamond
Set against the backdrop of civil war
and chaos in 1990's Sierra Leone,
Blood Diamond is the story of Danny
Archer (Leonardo DiCaprio) a South
African mercenary and Solomon
Vandy (Djimon Hotrisou) a Mende
fisherman. Both men are African, but
their histories as different as any can
be, until their fates become joined in
a common quest to recover a rare
pink diamond that can transform their
lives. While in prison for smuggling,
Archer learns that Solomon who was
taken from his family and forced to
work in the diamond fields has
found and hidden the extraordinary
rough stone. With the help of Maddy
Bowen (Jennifer Connelly), an
American journalist whose idealism is
tempered by a deepening connection
with Archer, the two men embark on a
trek through rebel territory, a journey
that could save Solomon's family and
give Archer the second chance he
thought he would never have. 2 hr. 18

Fur: An Imaginary
Portrait of Diane
Arbus
Following his breakthrough feature
"Secretary," director Steven Shainberg
creates a ravishing imaginary portrait
of the visionary artist Diane Arbus.
Much as an actual Arbus photo trans-
ports us into strange and unfamiliar
worlds, "Fur" travels through the look-
ing glass to explore the transformation
of a shy woman into a powerfully origi-

nal artist. Oscar winner Nicole Kidman
stars as Diane Arbus, a devoted wife
and mother whose innate talents and
dark obsessions are profoundly at
odds with the conventional life she
leads in 1958 New York. Oscar-nomi-
nee Robert Downey Jr. co-stars as
Lionel, an enigmatic new neighbor
who launches Diane on her journey to
becoming the artist she is meant to
be. 120 mins.

The Queen
The Queen takes audiences behind
the scenes of one of the most shocking
public events of recent times providing
an illuminating, acidly funny, yet deeply
affecting, dramatic glimpse into what
happens in the corridors of power when
tragedy strikes. The setting for this fiction-
al account of real events is no less than
the private chambers of the Royal Family
and the British government in the wake
of the sudden death of Princess Diana in
August of 1997. In the immediate after-
math of the Princess's passing, the tight-
ly contained, tradition-bound world of
the Queen of England (DAME Helen
Mirren) clashes with the slick modernity
of the country's brand new, image-con-
scious Prime Minister, Tony Blair (Micheal
Sheen). The result is an intimate, yet the-
matically epic, battle between private
and public, responsibility and emotion,
custom and action as a grieving nation
waits to see what its leaders will do.

Shut Up and Sing
On stage at a 2003 London concert,
Natalie Maines, lead singer of Texan trio
the Dixie Chicks, spoke these 15 words
to a small audience at the start of their
sold-out international tour: "Just so you
know, we're ashamed the president of
the United States is from Texas."The
comment was delivered on the eve of
the American invasion of Iraq, and drew
cheers from the decidedly anti-war and
anti-Bush British crowd. It was an off-
the-cuff remark typical of the lead
singer's temperament Natalie, and fellow
Dixie Chicks Martie Maguire and Emily
Robison, thought little of it But history
and this film demonstrate that at this
heightened moment of political polariza-
tion in the United States, many people
did care, and empowered this
simple, yet loaded remark to carry seri-
ous and longstanding ramifications.

Stranger Than Fiction
A novelist (Emma Thompson) struggles

finest, book she only has to find a way
to kill off her main character, Harold
Crick, and she'll be done. Little does she

ARIES (March 21-April
19). In a nervy mood,
you could call up the
one who has been bothering
you and have it out.To get the
most out of this conversation,
hang up while dialing. (Some
conversations are best when
they never happen.)

STAURUS (April 20-May
20). It doesn't matter
whether you know
how to get where you want to
go. You'll figure it out you
always do. If you stumble
around in the darkness long
enough, you're bound to
bump into the light switch.

GEMINI (May 21-June
21). Go easy.The
fewer judgments you
make, the more energy you'll
have. Give people you've
known a long time the benefit
of the doubt. You'll never be
sorry for showing compassion.

CANCER (June 22-July
22). Emotions contin-
ue to run high, and
you can just blame it
on your innate sensitivity to
the changing moon. Yoga,
exercise and laughing with
friends are effective stress
reducers.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
It's time to let a cer-
01 tain cat out of the bag
give voice to your secret
wish. But here's the caveat -
be alone when you do this.
When you declare your quiet
desire out loud, your feelings
resonate and make it real.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22). Sometimes you're
so willful that you go
to extremes. The object of your
affection is, hopefully, some-
one who'll surrender to your
wacky wisdom. If not, there
could be a power struggle.

know that Harold Crick (Will Ferrell) is
inexplicably alive and well in the real
world and suddenly aware of her words.
Fiction and reality collide when the bewil-
dered and hilariously resistant Harold
hears what she has in mind and realizes
he must find a way to change her (and
his) ending.

/. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.
23). Perhaps you don't
mean to be elusive,
and yet there are those in your
life who only have your e-mail
address or a cell number.
Remain a glamorous mystery.
Have fun with the projections
of others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Your tendency
toward social exclusiv-
ity is activated. You're charm-
ing and sympathetic, and you
expect the same. If people lack
attractive manners, you don't
care how many other virtues
they possess.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). Why think
big when you can
think huge? If your attitude is
huge and your plans are huge,
soon your outrageous goals
won't seem so outrageous at
all. Leo people can help you
slip into this exaggerated
headspace.

"'qi; CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
*Y7K Jan. 19). There's this
pressure to act pur-
poseful and be driven. Chuck it
for the day. You don't always
have to know what you want
for the long term. You only
have to know what you want
right now.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-
Feb. 18). You're in an
expansive mood,
which can translate into bloat-
ed debts and waistlines. Try to
keep your various appetites in
check. You're especially vulner-
able to binge shopping -
keep receipts!

,PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Involve at least one other
person in today's activities
- you need another point of view
in order to remain fresh and effec-
tive. And as part of a group larger
than two, you experience a power
greater than the sum of its parts.,

Candles in the wind
Saturday, Dec. 9, Venice
Memorial Gardens will hold
its 14th annual Candlelight
Memorial Service. More than
5,000 luminaries will be lit
along the roads throughout
the gardens. Volunteers are
needed in the morning to set
up the luminaries and in the
afternoon to light them. For
more information, call Cyndi
Bergenthal at 493-4246.
The drive through begins
at 6 p.m. and the program, led
by Gary Gray of Venice
Assembly of God Church,
begins at 7 p.m. Venice Me-
morial Gardens is on Center
Road, just west of River Road.

admission, guests can enjoy
unlimited visits with no
blackout dates to either park

for the price of one single-day
admission of $61.95 for adults
and $51.95 for ages 3-9.
With the fun card, some-
one accompanying the card
holder also gets a deal $5

This is good for up to six visit-

The Salvation Army of
Venice is still looking for bell
ringers for its annual kettle
campaign. There are kettles at
locations such as Publix
Super Markets in Venice,
North Port and Englewood,
through Dec. 23. Ringers gen-
erally volunteer for two-hour
shifts so a group of five
friends could cover a whole
day from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Church and office groups
often adopt kettles for a day, a
week or even for the entire
campaign. St. Marks, Venice
Presbyterian and the Venice
Nokomis Methodist Church
are just some of the churches
whose members commit to
manning a kettle for the
entire season. Kettles are not

in this area, call Capt. Chris

McCloe at (941) 484-6227.
When kettles cannot be
manned for the whole day,
the Salvation Army occasion-
ally has to pay people to ring
the bell. This cuts into the
proceeds of an organization
that works so hard to keep its
costs down so that as much
money as possible goes
where needed rather than for
expenses. Please help.
Should a hurricane or
other disaster strike this area,
when the Salvation Army
canteen is on the scene feed-
ing the firemen and other
emergency workers plus
helping any residents in need,
you will be especially glad you
helped. Any one of us could
become one of those people.

ELLEN HILLSTROM

COLUMNIST

Lock your car
every time
At a recent meeting of the
South County Alliance of
Neighborhoods, Deputy
Chief Larry Dunklee of the
Sarasota County Sheriff's
Office addressed the issue of
automobile theft, especially
during the return of the snow-
birds.
People often get caught up
with activities and parties or
walking the beach and forget
to lock their cars. The depart-
ment has printed a brochure
entitled Park Smart, to remind
residents of the danger they
face due to auto theft, a major
crime statistic within our
county.
The brochure contains
simple steps to protect
against such a crime:
Always lock your car and
take your keys with you wher-
ever you park.
Don't hide a spare key in
your vehicle (they know all
the hiding places).
When you get home, park
your vehicle in the garage

when possible and lock the
car inside.
Choose your parking
location carefully. Select a site
that is well lighted and in the
view of passersby.
Keep desirables out of
plain view, particularly elec-
tronic devices. (I would add
that Christmas shopping bags
are great invitations to steal -
lock them in the trunk.)
A copy of the brochure is
available at most government
offices.
For emergencies, call 9-1-1;
for crime prevention infor-
mation, call 861-4084.
Deputy Chief Dunklee also
handed out the most recent
Code Enforcement Referral
Guide. It is an excellent direc-
tory of the types of common
violations and whom to call,
with telephone numbers
included. You may pick up a
copy at the South Venice Civic
Association office.
Tomorrow night is our big
SVCA Holiday Party. The next
morning I fly to Minneapolis
to spend time with my baby
sister, who has been in
Methodist Hospital's inten-
sive care unit since Nov. 9. Her
condition went from life-
threatening to a slow recov-
ery, and she will remain in the
hospital for a while longer.-
I told the SVCA board at
Monday's meeting that
between visiting Irene and
staying in the motel, I'll have
quiet tinie to prepare our pro-
posed budget for 2007!

BY VICKI SOLOMON
SPECIAL TO THE GONDOLIER SUN

Tradition teaches: "Open your hand
to the poor and your neighbors in your
land who are in need" (Deuteronomy
15:11). The word tzedakah comes from
the Hebrew word tzedek, which means
"just" or "righteous." The fact that we use
the word tzedakah to refer to the just or
righteous way to give teaches us about
the Jewish attitude toward charitable
giving. We do .tzedakah because the act
helps to eliminate injustice in our world.
The children of The Ruth :Satzman
'Levy School at the Jewish Center of
Venice decided that for this year's
tzedakah project they would collect chil-
dren's clothes, diapers, canned goods,
toys, stuffed animals, etc. and donate
them to Safe Place and Rape Crisis
Center. The children have been collect-
ing these items since the beginning of
the last school year.

What was old is new again at Aldea Mar

SUN PHOTOS BY KIM COOL

White stucco covers the exterior of this building at Aldea Mar
where a recently renovated residence is being offered for sale.

BY KIM COOL
FEATURES EDITOR

Built in 1970, the gulf
coast condominium com-
munity known as Aldea Mar
is at that age when its resi-
dents are actively renovating
their individual residences.
Despite regular mainte-
nance, there comes a time
when it is time to replace
flooring and redo kitchens a
bathrooms.
Owners of a second floor
gulf-view unit at Aldea Mar
did all that and more two
years ago.
Today, the two-bedroom,
two bath residence has gran-
ite counters in the kitchen,
black appliances, new
wiring, lighting and plumb-
ing plus new 18-inch tile
floors throughout the space.
There are new windows in
the bedrooms, dining area
and within the ceiling win-
dow area in the living room.
Also new are the washer
and dryer and a quick recov-
ery water heater plus
humidistat and several ceil-
ing fans.
From the entry door to
the updated bathrooms'and
closets, the space appears
new and inviting.
What remains is the gulf
view. Whether working at the
kitchen sink, sitting in the
-dining area or relaxing in the
living area, one can enjoy a
view of the Gulf of Mexico
and the recently renourished
Venice Beach from the
south-facing windows.

There are plantation shut-
ters in the second bedroom.
Aldea Mar's large
inground pool is equally
close, just steps away to the
east of the building housing
this residence. Both pool
and beach can be seen from
the balcony. With a resort-
like layout of buildings,
parking and extensive lawn
area, Aldea Mar 'also has a
clubhouse, putting green
-and shuffleboard.
Except for Beleeza, the
first new condominium
building constructed along
the Venice Beach in more
than 20 years, the only way
to find "new" along the gulf
is to find a recently renovat-
ed residence or to find one
in need of such work. That
can be a daunting task for
the average person.
That work has been
done on th is unit,
which is currently
rented for the season,
but can be seen by
appointment.
Recently listed for :
$659,900 with Realtor '~
Sue Morgan of
Paradise Realty of
Venice, this condo-
minium includes a
one-car carport and is
one of the few units at ..
Aldea Mar to ha\e its
own deeded outside
locked storage unit.
For an appointment
to see the residence,
call Morgan at (941) A rais
321-4855, (800) 330- ing av
6720 or 488-1111. reside

Window teatments in the living area provide a shaded view of
the trees and beach, which are visible from the second floor
location of the residence.

sed granite serving counter facilitates entertaining while also hid-
way the clean-up area of the kitchen at,this recently renovated
ence at Aldea Mar in Venice.
