VENICE LOCAL NEWS COVER TO COVER * FLORIDA'S NO.1 WEEKLY NEWSPAPER OndOlIe S40 8 PRESCRIPTION DRUGS SHOT IN THE ARM Understanding the addiction Plans for a new medical center PAGE 3A PAGEs6A VRMC locked down Tuesday By BROOKY BROWN PROJECTS EDITOR Venice Regional Medical Center was on lock down Tuesday from noon to 2:30 p.m. according to hospital officials. The hospital took this precaution af- ter an unidentified caller said she over- head a disturbing conversation between her husband and an ex-employee of the hospital. She said the ex-employee said the hospital had taken his job and Duplex g By BROOKY BROWN PROJECTS EDITOR Women wearing hard hats, wielding hammers and hanging drywall will be a common sight during Habitat for Humanity South Sarasota County's first Women Build project. The start date for this venture is early March 2011. More than 100 women gathered at Venice Regional Medical Center for the kickoff rally recently to sign up as volunteers for the project. Seventy- five of those women volunteered for construction. Others signed up to provide snacks at the site or handle public relations and a variety of other volunteer duties. Previously, ground was broken in Nokomis, where the duplex will be constructed on Habitat's Garden Park site. "The whole premise of Women Build is to empower women to come to the construction site and build," said Judy Wilcox, executive director of HHSSC. Wilcox was quick to point out that Women Build does not exclude men, as they will be needed to teach valu- able construction lessons to women who have never hammered a nail or taped drywall. "Women Build is for women to increase their construction skills be- cause Habitat is building more homes and we need more volunteer skilled labor," she said. "It will also help women learn how to maintain their own homes." According to the Habitat Inter- national Web site, www.habitat.org, Women Build brings together women from all walks of life to address the housing crisis facing millions of women and children worldwide. Women Build events have helped con- struct more than 1,750 houses since its launch in 2006. Lowe's employees have commit- ted countless volunteer hours and millions of dollars since partnering with Habitat International in 2003. In 2009, Lowe's renewed its commitment through 2013. By then it will have con- tributed nearly $40 million to Habitat. his insurance and he was going to get a gun. The caller was unclear about what the ex-employee said he was going to do with the gun. VRMC went immediately into lock down for the safety of everyone at the hospital and then called the Venice Police Department. Detectives and patrol officers arrived at the hospital a short time after it went into lock down. "The caller did the right thing and so did the hospital," detective Lt. Ron Solanes said. "Our patrol officers and detectives found the ex-employee at his residence. He was entirely cooperative letting us search him and his car." Solanes said they let the ex-employ- ee go because after interviewing and searching him, there was no indica- tion the call was credible. "The investigation continues to identify the unidentified caller," he said. ets women's touch * I ~ -1IN&;: PHOTO COURTESY OF SALLY VALIN Venice Regional Medical Center CEO Peter Wozniak, left, Michelle Hazeltine, co-chair of Women Build, Golda Radefeld, Habitat for Humanity South Sarasota County board chair, and Karen Roberts, co-chair of Women Build, break ground at Garden Park in Nokomis for the Women Build duplex as Executive Director of HHSSC Judy Wilcox looks on from the seat of the Bobcat. Lowe's sponsors NationalWomen Build Week, challenging U.S. women annually to devote at least one day to the effort to eliminate poverty hous- ing. The Venice Lowe's will be teaching women a variety of building skills be- fore they go to the site. Lowe's employ- ees also will volunteer at Garden Park. PGT has donated all of the windows for the duplex and many of its employ- ees will be working at the site as well. Chris Hassler, wife of builder Greg Hassler, signed up for construction because she wanted to be part of a dynamic group of women who were giving back to their community. DUPLEX 19 Honore Avenue North opening on S.R. 681 By ROGER BUTTON BUSINEWS COLUMNIST Early in the new year drivers will ex- perience the first intersection opening on State Road 681, the Venice connec- tor to Interstate 75. Construction of Honore Avenue north of S.R. 681 is estimated to be completed in February with a tentative opening of roadway by end of Febru- ary 2011, said Vinod Sancheti, project manager, Sarasota County Capital Management Services. Traffic flow at this intersection of S.R. 681 will be right-in and right-out only. There is no left turn in or out at S.R. 681 due to the median dividing the eastbound and westbound traffic on S.R. 68, Sancheti said. Signalization with traffic lights at the intersection will be completed in early January 2014. The Honore Avenue extension south of S.R. 681 along with the signalized intersection at S.R. 681 cannot be completed until at least one year after the widening of 1-75 is completed by Florida Department of Transportation. At this point, said Sancheti, "we estimate the completion of the Honore Avenue extension from S.R. 681 to Lau- rel Road will be in early 2014, subject to funding." The benefits of this initial north- ern access opening in 2011 will be minimal to south county traffic until northbound traffic can access the new extension. When completed, Honore Avenue is planned to be an alternate access road for north and south bound traffic be- tween East Venice Avenue at Pinebrook Road through to north Sarasota. In- tentions are it will relieve traffic delays on both US 41, Tamiami Trail and the interstate particularly when accidents close either major highway. Other intersection improvements were announced in December 2005 when Sarasota County adopted the arterial road access management plan for S.R. 681. Sarasota County, Palmer Ranch Holdings and Henry Rodriguez are owners of property available for development along the road. On the south side east of Spanish Lakes Mobile Home Park, Rodriguez has 220 acres with intentions an- nounced at that time he would create a $1 billion village with 1,700 hous- ing units, 60 small shops, a gourmet grocery store, outdoor cafes and coffee bars. Progress of the plan was halted by the downturn in the economy. rogerbutton@verizon.net Jennifer Brower, marketing director atVRMC, said no one seemed alarmed by the lock down and everyone handled it well. "We had a possible issue with a former employee, so we took precau- tionary measures to ensure the safety of our patients, staff and visitors," she said Tuesday afternoon. "Now the incident is under control and the hospital is running normally." bbrown@venicegondolier.com Cold weather hits fishing industry By JOSH TAYLOR ABC 7 WWSB Bitter temperatures are trying to put a freeze on the local fishing in- dustry. Charter captains say they've had to cancel and reschedule trips. Commercial crabbers also say the cold is causing their catch to run thin. "Big seller of the day. Mr. Hot. It's a hand warmer," said Captain Ed Johnson. The problem for Johnson at the Dockside store in Nokomis is there isn't a whole lot to sell to. "Dead, absolutely nothing. All weekend long. I opened Christmas Day because it was going to be in the 70s. I actually did a little business. Then Sunday it was raining and blow- ing." Despite sunny skies Tuesday the cold weather is taking a bite out of the bait and tackle business.

Bill Buck Jr. passes By ROGER BUTTON BUSINEWS COLUMNIST The Greater Venice community lost a quiet, shy and passionate business colleague when Bill Buck Jr., president of Bill Buck Chevrolet, 2324 South Tamiami Trail, passed away Dec. 18. He was 67. "As president of the dealership, which is owned by my 94-year-old grandfa- ther, my dad was very active until he became sick.

"You start feeling a nod," she said. "You're happy; you're out of it." The feeling lasts for hours, she said, a deep, tranquil and numb sen- sation that flows through a user's entire body. "Everyone would say, 'Don't bother Brittany, she isn't sleeping,'" said Baggott in a phone in- terview from Hernando County Correctional Institution in Spring Hill, Fla. The Englewood resident landed in the law's hands after she and some friends had no cash to get high. In a des- perate attempt for drug money, they broke into a former boss's home and took $70,000 worth of his belongings. She was arrested in October 2007 and now is serving three years for grand theft, with six months left on her sentence. Unfortunately, Bag- gott's case is not a rarity. The flow of illegal pre- scription drugs, mainly Xanax and synthetic opi- ates (OxyContin, hydro- codone), shows no signs of slowing down, ac- cording to Wendy Rose, spokeswoman for the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office. "Every day you're see- ing drug arrests," she said. Drugs are stolen from medicine cabinets and acquired through doctor- shopping. To understand the problem of prescription drug abuse, it's impor- tant to first understand why users, especially young people, begin to experiment in the first place. To put it simply, users do drugs because they do what they're meant to. "A person will spend $3 on a shot of liquor instead of a 2-liter bottle of soda," said PJ Brooks, vice president of Outpa- tient Services with First Step Sarasota, a drug rehabilitation center. "That's because it makes them feel good." That innocent attempt at "feeling good" is soon lost, according to Bag- gott. Within three weeks, she said, she got her first case of what addicts call dope sickness and what doctors call withdrawal. "I didn't care about anything else and when I tried to quit, I realized it had a hold on me," Baggott said. "It was no longer fun, it was just SUN PHOTO ILLUSTRATION BY ELAINE ALLEN-EMRICH The problem of prescription drug abuse continues to escalate, with widespread availability being a major factor. waking up and getting high." While OxyContin may be the kingpin of pre- scription drug abuse, other drugs are getting their name out. Adderall and Ritalin are two of those drugs. Adderall, however, is a strange case. It isn't a drug that easily turns a user into a hope- less junky. Rather, the synthetic amphetamine stimulant, prescribed for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, is commonly used by professionals and col- lege kids. Even stranger, it's typically abused for a pretty good cause, Brooks said. "Especially in the col- lege ranks, we see kids misusing Adderall for studying," Brooks said. Regardless of the intentions, when they swallow or snort an Adderall pill, the con- sequences are never harmless. Side effects include increased heart rate, which means a user with a pre-existing heart condition could suffer a heart attack. Prolonged abuse also reportedly has led to mental conditions like schizophrenia. To Brooks, however, the biggest threat from Adderall is that it is a gateway drug to harder prescriptions. "If I learn that I can take a pill to stay up for a test, my resistance to try another pill is less," he said. While the number of pills on the street in- creases just as fast as the number of users, there are people stepping up to defend their families and their community. Donna Baggott, Brit- tany's mother, took the law into her own hands to stop her daughter from using. After her daughter's addiction became obvious, Donna went to her daughter's friends, who she knew were providing pills. "I knew the parents of one of them; I knew the grandparents of another," Donna said. "I went and knocked on the door and said, 'Do you know your son is selling drugs?'" Donna said she per- suaded the dealers to stop selling to her daugh- ter. Unfortunately, her brave attempt kept her daughter clean for only a few weeks. Hope for Brittany, how- ever, is not lost. While her mother's pleas and threats didn't seem to make a dent in her ad- diction, prison time did. "If they didn't stop me when they did," she said, "I can't say where it would have taken me." On the legal end of the resistance is the National Prescription Drug Take- Back event, which was held Sept. 25 in Sarasota County. County residents turned in 44 pounds of unused or expired medications. Another event was held Nov. 13. While each drug handed in wasn't cataloged, it only can be assumed that some of the pills would have ended up in the hands of addicts, Rose said.

"We know medicines are out there for the right reasons," she said, "but when you're done, turn them in." After the success of the events, the SCSO set up permanent drop-offs at Sheriffs Office buildings in Sarasota and Venice. Drugs can be dropped off in Sarasota at 2071 Ring- ling Blvd., 24 hours a day; and in Venice at 4531 State Road 776, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Aside from physically taking pills off the street, Brooks believes the solu- tion lies in education and reform. The first step, he said, is the doctor's of- fice. According to Brooks, most doctors receive just less than eight hours of addiction education and have little knowl- edge about giving pills to someone who could become, or already is, an addict. Brooks also believes addiction no longer can be treated as a finite dis- ease, one that a year or two in prison can knock out of a user's system. In- stead, he believes offend- ers should be sent away for rehabilitation. This, he said, would make sure they are being treated for both their crime and their disease. His opinion is starting to become the legal norm. "The best thing that can happen is beginning to happen in our com- munity," Brooks said. "Law enforcement is working with treatment providers." Brittany Baggott has another six months to serve in prison. "It's something I have to live with every day," she said. "I've made a big turn around. I still have my bad days and my hard days, but I've learned a lot since I've been here." Since her incarcera- tion, Brittany has earned her GED and completed college credit courses. Only time will tell if her time away has been enough to finally kick her habit, which she now has had for eight years. "I'm tired of that life," she said. "I'm tired of it controlling me." Her mother gladly gives advice to anyone who may be getting into the dangerous lifestyle that corrupted her daughter: "If you're using to make life better, that's not how this works," she said.

Rob- bins Associates, referring to the improvements planned for the Bank of America Building, 304 W. Venice Ave. The design by architect Mark Beebe, of Beebe De- sign Studio, will emphasize Italian-style architecture at the pedestrian level incor- porating Tuscan columns, awnings to give a three- dimensional effect, molding details, lighting and a barrel- tile roof. Entrances will be defined with a friendly downtown character, enlivening activity around the building and the Venice shopping community. Venetian Plaza LLC of Sarasota acquired the build- ing for $2 million in Sep- tember and is committed to bringing the building up to a Class A Office Build- ing standard. Robbins said construction drawings are being produced to obtain the required permits to start construction in February. Completion is estimated for spring. Bank of America occupies the ground floor and the majority of the second floor of the building. Half of the 32,000 square feet building is leased. With the exterior building renovations, the owner is working on plans to complete the third-floor office suites. "We believe there is a demand for professional office space in the down- town core," said Robbins, who with Dan McLeroy will manage the leasing office in the building. rogerbutton@verizon.net RENDERING COURTESY OF HARRY E ROBBINS ASSOCIATES The Bank of America building in downtown Venice will get a facelift beginning in February. i!: ' " At:E A ..

The site of the former 178- bed nursing facility Venice Rehab Center has been ac- quired by two Bradenton-based investors. David Gruber and Robert Martin, doing business as No- komis Ventures Inc., purchased the property at 437 S. Nokomis Ave. for $450,000 from People's Federal Savings Bank of Boston, Mass., in late October. The prop- erty sold for $1.8 million when acquired by Bill Martin, owner of In-Island Development of North Weymouth, Mass., in February 2005. Closed abruptly in May 2004, the nursing facility stood empty except for brief period in Au- gust 2004 when it was opened temporarily to accommodate victims of Hurricane Charley. Martin, a Boston contractor, tore down the buildings with inten- tions to build a community of 36 upscale townhouses priced SUN PHOTO BY ROGER BUTTON The overgrown parking lot, formerly a nursing home, at 437 S. Nokomis Ave., could be developed as medical offices with some residential space. around $800,000, but the project never materialized. According to Stephen Horn of Ian Black Associates, who handled the transaction, the bank had taken back the land, one of the few pieces it had in Southwest Florida, and needed to dispose of it. His clients, Gruber and Martin, are explor- ing ideas, some of which include seeking some changes to the existing permitting. "The new City of Venice is amenable to change, wanting to help this project as it does not want to have an overgrown park- ing lot there forever," said Horn. During exploratory informal meetings with city planners, indications are some that modi- fications of existing permitting could lead to approvals being sought in the summer with plans being prepared by the fall of 2011. The proximity of this location on the island to Venice Regional Medical Center is extremely compatible for medical offices with the possibility of some resi- dential, said Horn. rogerbutton@verizon.net Former Golden Chrysler site sold for $2 million By ROGER BUTTON BUSINEWS COLUMNIST An auto auction business is a strong possibility for the former property of Golden Chrysler, 1550 North Tamiami Trail, at the southern intersection of U.S. 41 Bypass and U.S. 41 Business, according to Nick Herron of the Herron Group of Re/Max Alli- ance Group. All the properties previ- ously owned by Bill and Loretta Golden on the 6.5-acre location in foreclosure were sold by CRM Florida Properties LLC, a Geor- gia affiliate of SunTrust Bank, to Joe Collins of Casey Key Road, Nokomis, for $2 million. Herron represented Collins in the trans- action. According to the Sarasota County Property Appraiser's Web site, when the Goldens owned the location in 2007 the taxable value was $3.49 million. There are five parcels, two be- ing the original Chrysler service, sales and body shop; two single lots at the rear on Faun Road, which includes a drainage reten- tion pond; and a section former- ly occupied by Pit-Stop and the Golden Imports building. Collins is marketing the prop- erty as a single unit or as separate parcels, according to Herron. The original dealership building, including an eight-bay service facility and large asphalt parking lot, has a price of $5.4 million. Herron said his client believes the $3.4 million Golden Imports parcel would be ideal for retail as a whole or subdivided. Together the parcels have a 300-foot front- age on Business 41. Collins is the retired part- owner and founder of CVS Sys- tems, Marion, Ind., the Midwest distributor of Dish Satellite Systems. rogerbutton@verizon.net 'Stop stations' planned for trail By ROGER BUTTON BUSINEWS COLUMNIST Almost every mile along the Legacy Trail will have Stop Sta- tions, each with two benches, a bike rack, shade structure, and trash receptacles said Salvatore G.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 2010 By STEVE REILLY STAFF WRITER Florida Fish and Wild- life Conservation Com- mission officials want people to be aware of the impact cold waters are having on manatees this year, which is by far the deadliest on record. Wildlife and other law enforcement officers will be patrolling areas where large numbers of manatees are known to congregate, FWC Lt. Col. Bruce Buckson said recently in a teleconfer- ence with other state wildlife officials. This year already has proven itself the deadli- est for manatees, espe- cially from cold-water stress. Last winter's cold snaps saw four times the manatee mortalities re- corded annually resulting from cold stress. According to the FWC Fish and Wildlife Re- search Institute, of the 699 reported manatee deaths from Jan. 1 to Dec. 5, 244 resulted from cold stress. And out of the 203 manatees that died of undetermined causes, researchers suspect many of those deaths - due to fac- tors such as timing and Manatee deaths set record where the carcasses were recovered - also were due to the cold winter. Overall, this year's reported manatee deaths far surpassed the 2009 record of 429 manatee mortalities. "You have to be careful what you read into one year," research institute Director Gil McRae said Friday, noting that the overall impact of this year's mortality rate remains to be seen. Last January, the annual aerial count of mana- tees in waters reached 5,067 statewide, which is also significantly higher than in other years. But as with the mortality numbers, McRae said researchers view them as "minimum counts." According to research- ers, manatees exposed to water temperatures below 68 degrees for long periods of time can develop complex diseases and symptoms. Manatees can lose their appetites and suffer weight loss, develop skin lesions or abscesses, and suffer from dehydration, constipation, other disor- ders and infections as a result of exposure to the cold. The cold water also often weakens the ma- rine mammals' immune systems. Martine DeWit, a senior researcher with the research institute's pathology laboratory, said, traditionally, manatees display symptoms from what she called "chronic cold stress" resulting from prolonged exposure to chilled waters. Last winter, she said, many mana- tees died from "acute cold shock" and showed symptoms characteristic of hypothermia. What impact the re- cent cold snaps will have on manatees remains to be seen. DeWit said it takes a week or more for mana- tees to display symp- toms resulting from cold stress. No deaths or rescued manatees have been reported to date as a result of this month's cold fronts. However, throughout the state, she said, the mammals have begun migrating to their warm-water havens. In the wake of last winter's die-off due to the cold, state wildlife officials have taken some steps to help the mana- tees survive this and future winters. AP PHOTO This November photo shows a canal and temporary water heaters at Port St. John, where manatees will hang out at the Florida Power & Light power plant this winter. During last winter's brutal cold snap, about 1,000 manatees gathered at the warm-water discharge of the FPL power plant at the Indian River near Cocoa. Among all other power plants and natural springs, it was the state's biggest gathering of manatees seeking to escape lethally cold waters. But today, the FPL plant is shut down. The utility will soon start building a replacement plant but that will take as many as three years. In the meantime, a massive, industrial water heater has been installed to turn the plant sites intake canal into a warm pool big enough for 1,000 manatees or more. Homosassa Springs State Park has lifted the barrier that kept wild manatees from the warm- water spring that feeds the Homossasa River. Wildlife officials had been worried about a virus that infected the "resident" manatees kept at the park. McRae said they no longer worry about the virus, and now the wild manatees are moving farther up the river to bask in the warm waters of the spring. Locally, McRae said water flowing from Warm Mineral Springs also pro- vides a winter haven for manatees. Efforts earlier this year, he said, saw the removal of man-made and natural obstructions that hindered manatees from taking fuller advan- tage of the Warm Mineral Springs waters. reilly@sun-herad.com Unemployment up despite seasonal hires By JOSH SALMAN STAFF WRITER Unemployment rose throughout the Suncoast during the month despite a surge in seasonal hires, leaving economists fearing the grim job market may be further from a recovery than they had thought. One month after drop- ping to their lowest totals since summer, unemploy- ment rates unexpect- edly reversed in November - traditionally one of the busiest months for retail. Although consumer confidence is improving and holiday spending is projected to rise, the state added just a modest 300 jobs from October. Economists aren't completely sure why the market bucked the trend this year, but they said the unwelcome news shows the economy has a way to go before it can stand on its own. They're worried the picture could get much TRAIL FROM PAGE 6 side of U.S. 41 Bypass due to its non-coordina- tion with FDOT's Legacy Trail Pedestrian Overpass project. Possible options for placing it in the area are being discussed by Sarasota County Parks worse entering the post- holiday slowdown. "Unemployment is extremely high, and it's go- ing to take a while to work through," said Gary Jackson, director of the Regional Eco- nomic Research Institute and an economics profes- sor at Florida Gulf Coast University. "The economy is recovering, but compa- nies have doubts, so they're waiting to hire.... We should see some reductions as we continue into season." Charlotte had the high- est monthly spike: Unem- ployment rose 0.5 percent- age points from October to reach a 12.9 percent November rate. A year ago, the county's unemploy- ment was 12.8 percent, ac- cording to figures released Dec. 17 by the Agency for Workforce Innovation, the state's labor department. Sarasota County had the lowest jobless rate in the region at 12.1 percent. That number represents & Recreation, Sarasota County Capital Man- agement Services, and Florida Department of Transportation. Two stop stations at Central Sarasota Park- way and Oscar Scherer State Park have been constructed with a tile roof design. Ten more are under construc- tion of which three will a 0.2 percentage-point increase from October and remains above the 12 percent reported during the same time last year. In DeSoto, the county had a 12.5 percent Novem- ber unemployment rate, up 0.2 percentage points from a month ago and 1.1 percentage points from November 2009, according the labor department. Jackson said the job mar- ket is likely much worse than the numbers indicate because they don't include discouraged workers or those who have settled for part-time positions. More than 30,800 residents are out of work among the three counties from a labor force of 250,000. "The normal level of un- employment for a county is about 5 or 6 percent," Jackson said. "We will al- ways have people changing jobs, with new jobs created as others go away. But we're talking about 2014 until we have the same tile roof design. The remaining seven will have a metal roof as requested by the Sarasota County Com- mission. Part of the new project is the addition of a sec- ond bench. A two-pole shade structure will be built at the remaining designed locations and this should be complet- get to that healthy, long- range unemployment. The jobs we had before are gone; they're not coming back. The question is, do these people have the skills to move into the new jobs?" Seasonally adjusted unemployment statewide jumped 0.1 percentage points over the month to reach 12 percent even - the highest total since April. More than 1.1 million Floridians are currently jobless. Hendry County had the most dreary unemploy- ment rate in Florida at 17.9 percent. Liberty County, in the Panhandle, had the lowest at 8.1 per- cent, according to the labor department. Florida's average remains above the national un- employment rate of 9.8 percent, which has been true since February 2008. AWI Chief Economist Rebecca Rust said the good news is the state has seen ed by the end of January 2011. A Local Agency Pro- gram agreement be- tween Sarasota County and FDOT is providing funding of $161,685.41 for the entire construc- tion project by contractor Tri-Tech Construction & Design Inc. at least some job growth for five consecutive months, led by gains in private education and health care. She attributes November's downturn to the European debt crisis, the sputtering housing market, and recent increases in unemploy- ment taxes for businesses. "We have had positive re- ports of retail hires and holi- day sales, but business cost- cutting and a still relatively weak consumer demand is holding us back," Rust said in a conference call with state media Friday. "We have more unemployed people than job openings, and mismatched skills of unemployed workers." The country currently is growing at a subtle rate of about 2.5 percent, which has economists worried the nation is dangerously close to deflation. They hope the federal extension of unemployment benefits signed into law earlier this month will help. Local employment agen- cies said many companies still are hiring. They were surprised by the reported monthly jump. "We have put an awful lot of people to work, but most of it is seasonal," said Debbie Guilbault, supervisor of Southwest FloridaWorks. "People can get jobs out there. We have definitely seen a little bit of a break." BUSINESS FROM PAGE 6 from this fundraising event go direct to local charities.

The execu- tor had discovered that a check had been issued for $20,000 to Charles Edgar Hall on April 27, from the victim. The victim, however, denied issuing that check. Detectives interviewed the financial agent who had been appointed by the executor to handle the victim's financial matters. She was the one who initially stumbled onto the $20,000 check. She thought it looked suspicious. The victim died on July 31. He suffered from various physical ailments and dementia. On April 15, 2009, he lived at BellaVita in Venice. On May 21, 2010, he transferred to Manor- Care inVenice. From June 10 until his death, he lived at HarborChase in Venice. Hall lived at Bella Vita during the same time as the victim. He later had to move because of financial issues and his wife needing more care because of her dementia. While at BellaVita, Hall befriended the victim. Since Hall was a real estate broker, the victim WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 2010 asked him to help him sell his condo. According to the victim's real estate settlement paperwork, the condo sold in April and Hall received a com- mission of $12,900. On June 16, the victim provided a sworn and notarized statement stat- ing that he did not give or loan or intend to give or loan Hall the sum of $20,000. Still, the financial agent had a balloon promissory note show- ing that Hall promised to pay the victim the sum of $20,000 in annual install- ments. It also stated the money would be due immediately if the death of the borrower or lender occurred. It was dated and signed by Hall on April 27. A close friend of the victim's said during conversations with the victim he talked with her about Hall asking him for a loan of $2,000. She believes the victim had signed the check, but Hall had written the check out for $20,000. Detectives then met with the director of com- munity relations at Bella Vita. She told detectives she knew that Hall had taken control of the vic- tim's checkbook. She said Hall assisted the victim with his move from Bella Vita and he had shown her the victim's check- book. Hall told her the move would cost $4,000, to which the director replied, "No way." She said the average cost of a move like the victim's is between $400 and $600. Hall told her not to tell the victim that. When detectives spoke with Hall, he admitted selling the condo for the victim and writing out checks for him, even mentioning the $20,000 check which he said was a gift from the victim. Hall never mentioned the promissory note that he had signed. Despite the signed promissory note, no money has been repaid to the victim or his estate. Hall, 71, of the 400 block Summerfield Way, Venice, was arrested and charged with larceny against a person 65 years of age or older and crimes against the elder- ly. He received no bond on the crimes against the elderly charge and $7,500 on the remaining charge. Jailhouse bout A man incarcerated in the Sarasota County Jail receives new charges in connec- tion with an argument that turned Physical. According to the Sara- sota County MI Sheriff's Of- fice report, Anthony Dennis Miller and another inmate were arguing when Miller punctured the top of the victim's head with a pencil. This occurred in cell block 3F at 9 p.m. on Dec. 22. They fought briefly after that but stopped when deputies showed up. The victim was treat- ed for his wound by jail medical staff and kept in medical for observation. The jail video con- firmed the victim's ac- count of the altercation. Miller, 38, was charged with aggravated battery by a person detained in jail. His bond is $20,000. His girlfriend did it Steven R. Bilbo pointed an accusing finger at his girlfriend to save his own skin. According to the Sara- sota County S-L Sheriff's Of- fice report, a 9-1-1 op- erator heard BILBO a female screaming in the background along with other people, but she couldn't understand what was going on. When deputies arrived on scene, they found all par- ties in the driveway while the victim and Bilbo were being separated by the victim's neighbor. Everyone was yelling and screaming. All parties were visibly intoxicated and or under the influ- ence of unknown con- trolled substances. The victim had lac- erations above both eyes and below his nose just above his upper lip. The victim told depu- ties that his wife and sister were arguing and he intervened. When he confronted them, Bilbo punched him repeatedly. The victim's wife corrob- orated these details. Bilbo, however, denied the statement saying he never touched the vic- tim. He said his girlfriend caused the victim's inju- ries. Deputies, however, didn't buy Bilbo's version of events. Bilbo was arrested and charged with battery. His bond is $750. Venice Police Department arrests * David Edward Snyder, 40, 300 block Rio Terra, Venice. Charge: resisting officer. Bond: $750.

Cold caution still in effect for area STAFF REPORT With a freeze warning issued earlier this week by the National Weather Service, Sarasota County Emergency Management officials are urging resi- dents to exercise caution in dealing with the continu- ing cold conditions. Temperatures were projected to drop rapidly overnight below freezing in all but the coastal areas. In the Venice area, forecast- ers are predicting a low of 31 degrees today and 46 degrees on Thursday, warming up thereafter. A number of shelters were opened, including the Salvation Army headquar- ters at 1400 Tenth St., Sara- sota and Christ Lutheran Church, 701 N. Indiana Ave., Englewood, were opened earlier this week. Residents should take action to protect their plants by covering or bringing them inside. Pets also should be brought inside during this period of cold weather. Tempera- tures could produce dan- gerous wind chills and people venturing outside overnight and in the early morning hours should dress in several warm lay- ers and limit exposure to the wind. Minor beach erosion may occur and beach us- ers should avoid the rough surf and be aware of a high risk of riptides. The dry air and winds could generate critical fire weather condi- tions as well. The risk of fire and car- bon monoxide poisoning also increases during very cold weather due to the improper use of heating devices, so extreme cau- tion is advised. Never use propane or gas heaters indoors, emergency. For more information, call 861-5000 or click the All Hazards button on www. scgov.net.

Johnson runs Fish Factor inshore offshore charters as well. "As you can see ... no boats. The tourists are here, believe me. They want to go boating. They want to go fishing. I am turning down cli- ents constantly because of the weather. I am not going to take them out and beat them up just to take their money." The impacts of the early cold weather are being felt right on down the line. Crabber Terry Earnest is selling his catch. He says it's smaller than normal. Blue and stone crabs are digging into the sand. "When it gets under 55 degrees it just makes them stop moving. They don't move as much because it's just too cold." Jane Corliss owns Captain Eddies Seafood Restaurant in Nokomis. She says so far she's not worried but there is some concern. "Stone crabs can't be refrigerated prior to be- ing cooked or the meat will stick to the shell. When it's as cold out side as it is it's like they are being refrigerated." Corliss says because of the economy less people are eating the high end catch like stone crabs as it is, saying their prices have actually gone down this year. That could change says Earnest. "Prices could go up a little bit. You just never know." Earnest says the wind and currents has also pulled his traps up to 15 miles apart. So far Corliss says she is still getting what she needs. "When you have been in business this long and being in with the industry they keep me supplied. They keep me happy." Trying to remain positive despite a down economy, the recent oil spill scare and now cold concerns is difficult. "It could be raining or snowing so I guess it's okay," says Earnest. "Shrimp tanks are pretty full so we are just waiting for good weather and people to go fishing," says John- son. So far just a few dead fish have been reported in the area. Includ- ing jack, snapper, and some floundering snook. Charter captains say before the cold snap and without any re- ports of red tide fishing has been as good as it's been in a long time. DUPLEX: Women wear hard hats, wield hammers, hang drywall for Habitat for Humanity FROM PAGE 1 "I just think this is women who live in a wonderful area giv- ing back to their own people," she said. "Look at the PGT women com- ing to help and women from the hospital. Such a unity." The state of the econo- my makes the contribu- tions even more remark- able in Hassler's eyes. "For PGT to give Habi- tat all of those windows now is incredible," she said. "Times are bad, but people are still giving." Hassler, who said her husband won't let her pick up a hammer, is looking forward to the construction work. "He even hangs the pictures at our house," she said. "Once in a while he'll let me ham- mer a nail into a wall and then he just shakes his head. But he's will- ing to come help with Women Build and teach us what to do." Hassler is the first to admit that most women don't know what they're doing when it comes to construction. "But we can do it," she said. "Every woman checked her ego at the door and we will do what we can do." Construction isn't the only thing that volun- teers can do for the Women Build project. "People at my condo who can't build can bake cookies and do other things to help with the project," Hassler said. Hassler's grown children live in Venice and they want to help, too, as does Ann Rog- gero's daughter, Melissa. Roggero is director of development at The State College of Florida Foun- dation Inc. "When women get together, we can do amazing things," Roggero said. "This is about shak- ing up predetermined ideas about what women can do." Melissa is studying at the University of Vir- ginia and plans to bring some of her girlfriends to Venice for spring break. They'll use one of their days in Venice to work on the Women Build duplex. "Women can do any- thing we put our minds to," Roggero said. "We are pretty high energy and if we put that toward helping build a house for someone who needs a home, how much better use of that energy." Venice Regional Medi- cal Center is the main sponsor for the project, and some of its employ- ees also have signed on as volunteers. Registered nurse Lucy Rich is looking forward to March, when she will be able to hammer her first nail into the wall. "Women Build really got my attention," she said. "I like to do physical things and stay active. I think this is a great, great program." So do the co-chairs of Women Build, Michelle Hazeltine and Karen Roberts. "I have always been amazed to see how hard the partner families work to get their homes," Hazeltine said. "Now, the women of our commu- nity are all ready to work on a common goal that directly helps families in our community change their lives." Roberts said Habitat in general and Women Build specifically are blessed to have a won- derful group of women on the Women Build committee helping make the venture successful. "Women Build enables women from all walks of life in our community to work together towards the common goal of helping families escape substandard housing," she said. "We are con- vinced there is noth- ing more important to ensure a stable society for our children than to provide them with a safe home to grow up in." Roberts said that she expects through the process women will also develop a strong sister- hood with each other and meet the challenge of building a house. Lowe's specialists stand ready to teach the women what they need to know to successfully build the duplex through four classes: hand and power tools, framing walls and roofs, insula- tion and drywall and in- terior painting and trim. "We're ready to kick- start this thing," said Tim Bauguss, a Lowe's sales manager. "It's a great opportunity for Lowe's to work with Habitat to give back to the community, and it's a great opportu- nity for women to get hands-on construction experience. Through this partnership we're redefining our commit- ment to homemaking by helping women pro- vide housing and fight poverty." To volunteer for Habitat for Humanity South Sarasota County's Women Build, call 493- 6606 and ask for Dena. And remember, there are many volunteer oppor- tunities in addition to construction. bbrown@venicegondolier.com BUCK: Corvette collector, president of Bill Buck Chevrolet dealership passes away at 67 FROM PAGE 1 daughter Robyn Calkins. When he was 7 years old Buck Jr. would run home from school to the dealership to sweep the floors and stock the parts, she recalled. She said it was his dream and passion running the dealership. In 1967 the fam- ily moved from Dewitt, Mich., when Bill Buck Sr. decided he wanted a dealership in Florida. They toured the state and decided on Venice. "My father and I spent lot of time together at the dealership where he had big chair for me," Calkins said. "We took rides to- gether in his cars. Often on Saturday I would hop in a car and we would go and check out the com- petition." During his lifetime Buck Jr. owned 50 Cor- vettes. "At one time I remem- ber him having 15 with one for each decade, but his favorite was a 1967 Silver Stingray. It is on the showroom floor today together with trophies, photos and memorabilia. He was always very proud of the Dale Earnhardt corvette he acquired about five years ago." Buck Jr. was a lifetime member of the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky where he would display and swap out his cars. In the community he was an avid sup- porter of the Venice High School football team. He sponsored Venice Little League Baseball, Volley- ball Leagues and com- munity golfing events. "It was his way to give back to the community which has embraced his dealership," Calkins said. "He went to work every day even though he did not have to be there because he loved the dealership." The Bill Buck Chevrolet dealership will continue in the family. "My husband is gen- eral manager and I am always going to be proud of the dealership," said Calkins. "There will be no ser- vice because my dad was a very private person, but I have set up his cars and they will be on display in the showroom until the L�, " PINEAPPLES ISLAND GRILL end of the year. Lots of people who need closure are stopping by to look at his pride and joy - the cars and the memorabil- ia. He was a proud guy who just did not want people to worry about him. All he wanted was for everyone to remem- ber him sitting at his desk with a smile." John Vidas, longtime Venice resident and retired vehicle engineer, met Bill Buck Sr. with his son Bill Jr. 20 years ago attending a car show at the Community Center. Talking about Corvettes, Vidas learned Bill Jr. was a corvette enthusiast. It was the beginning of a friendship built around the cars.

"Because there were Corvette clubs in other areas I kept bugging him about starting a club in Venice, but he was so hesitant it took eight years until he agreed to give it a try," Vidas said. It was 2002 when they formed the Florida Cor- vettes Club in Venice. "I asked Buck to start the first show with $250 and he replied, 'I can't.' Then he handed me a check for $500," said Vidas. "We became personal friends, but he always stayed in the back- ground. A very gener- ous, but shy and private person. He did nothing to attract recognition." Club shows began at the dealership, but by the third vear had outgrown / i it and relocated the event to downtown Centen- nial Park where the biggest turnout was 350 Corvettes in 2007. The club started with seven families and grew with Buck'Jr.'s support over the years to 175 families. "He was very good and very generous. In addi- tion to our club he sup- ported two other clubs," Vidas said. "Toys for Tots ~I~ K . _- ' * - . . . . . . .NTERROAD r- SITE I FI k I -llhn 5--. US tZ 'r' W 41 TAPILAMI TRAIL) d.

Subsequently, the property owner acquired an additional 220 +/- acres of contiguous lands west of River Road which it now proposes add to the Blackburn Creek development. Therefore an application will be filed to amend the existing DOCC and to rezone the 220 +/- acres from Open Use Estates (OUE-1) to the SAPD zone district, in order to add 431 more residential units to the Blackburn Creek development, without adding any more commercial/ office/retail uses. The consolidated Blackburn Creek development will consist of 1,999 dwelling units (1,568 + 431) and 150,000 square feet of commercial/office/ retail uses. Information on the proposed land use applications may be obtained from the Sarasota County website at http://www.scgov.net. This is not a public hearing. The purpose of the workshop is for the applicant to inform the neighboring residents of the nature of the proposed development, to solicit suggestions and concerns, and to explain the concept plan, which will be binding. The workshop will be held Wednesday, January 12, 2011, at 6 p.m. at Taylor Ranch Elementary School, 2500 Taylor Ranch Trail, Venice, Florida 34292. l f'W .-. - . .....

Astounding! He was the only person hardy or foolhardy enough to enter the water that morning. It was cold out. The Gulf was cold. It was breezy. We shiv- ered and stood in amazement. But the boy seemed happy enough to be running into the water and back out again, and then back in and back out again. His mother was amazed also. But as she explained, the family was headed back to northern Michi- gan the next morning. All things being equal, this didn't seem too bad. It's all relative, as Einstein pointed out a century ago, and that's a good thing. As we shivered over the Christ- mas weekend and continue to shiver this week we can take a little consola- tion from the news of cold, ice and snow in the North. As bad as it seems to us here, it's a lot worse up where our visitors and our neighbors are from. We dig the heavier coats out of the closet; they dig out from the sea- son's first blizzard. While turning the thermostat higher Monday morning, we felt some sympathy while watching the weather reports on the morning news shows. A dozen inches of snow had fallen in Philadelphia. The blizzard was so bad that it was deemed unsuitable for the Vikings to play football Sunday night. Twenty inches blanketed New York's Central Park. If you poked a yard- stick into the snow in Elizabeth, N.J., you wouldn't see a number below 30 inches. And then there was the wind, reportedly a sustained 35 mph from the Carolinas to New England, gusts up to 50. One visitor to a Sun office Monday morning said snow drifts had reached 10 feet on the side of his house. He was only too happy to be here safe in Southwest Florida, especially considering the backups at airports and trucks off the highways in the North. All things relative, our situation didn't seem to be too bad, even though snow flurries at the Florida Welcome Center outside Jacksonville were hardly the greeting we wished to extend to visitors to the Sunshine State on Sunday morning. So blame the Arctic cold fronts and put on an- other sweater. Remember also to stay safe when heating your home. Review the basics. Be careful with space heaters. Make sure there are no frayed cords. Don't place a heater too close to any flammable surface. Keep it in a safe place. Be careful with kerosene heaters. Liquid fuels always pose a danger. Make sure your rooms are venti- lated. Turn down any portable heater at night; just put on an extra blanket. And don't use your oven to heat your house. Please. Also take care if you have a fire- place. Make sure to use a screen after you build a fire; beware of stray sparks. And while you're at it, double-check the batteries in your smoke detectors. (Make sure you have smoke detectors to begin with.) Buy a small fire extin- guisher and keep it handy, just in case. You might also take a moment to check on elderly neighbors and friends. The colder weather is es- pecially tough on older bodies. The elderly are more susceptible to hypo- thermia. Make a friendly visit to any elderly friends, just to see if everything is OK. Remember also that warmer weath- er is on its way this week. Temperatures are expected to be in the mid-70s by the time the Florida Gators and Penn State play in the Outback Bowl on Saturday afternoon in Tampa. Warm wishes for a balmy New Year's Day. Be it resolved LANG CAPASSO With New Year's just a few days away, have you made your resolutions yet? Are you going to wait until the last minute and make one that you will probably break in the morning? I am sure losing weight, exer- cising, stopping drinking (or at least cutting back), being nicer, being more tolerant, stopping smoking, thinking "green," get- ting that home project done, reading more and getting involved have crossed your mind. I would be willing to bet that list covers about 90 percent of what people will be plan- ning to change. You might not achieve any of them or will break them in a short time. The truth is, if you made any of them or one I haven't men- tioned, you are on your way. To list one tells yourself you have a problem and you need to work on it. I am not Dr. Phil but I know we are all creatures of habit, and sometimes it is good to break the chains that tie us to that and explore new options. I thought I would offer you some suggestions for your res- olutions and maybe help you think a little "outside the box." Here are some alternatives to the "old" resolution routine that are pretty easy - ones you might find easier to keep: This is the year I resolve to get out of my house and learn a little more about the area I have chosen to live in. This is the year I resolve not to find fault with everything, and look for ways to work to make things better instead of carping about everything. This is the year I admit I can't change the world, but I am going to do all I can to try, from ringing Christmas bells to working in a soup kitchen, to aiding in building a house for Habitat for Humanity. This is the year I make sure a family has a great Christ- mas, or I give to Toys for Tots to make sure it happens next year. It might be late for this Christmas but why not pick a weekend and make that your Christmas event? This is the year I go to an older person's home and volunteer to clean up the yard, and maybe cut the grass. This is the year I contact three other couples and invite them over for supper or cards so we can all get to know each other better. This idea is similar to the dinner - have a neighborhood walk. You get to meet new people and get some exercise in, too. Make sure you thank the veterans you see and shake their hand. You can't help but recognize them by the service hats they wear or the insignia on their car. Visit a retirement home and strike up a conversation with someone sitting in the main seating area. There you have it. Not quite as exciting as planning to lose 10 pounds on a diet, but I'll bet they are just as rewarding. Hey, I have an idea. Why not lose the 10 pounds and thank a vet? Let's all have a great 2011. PS. In last week's column I left out Gulf Coast Community Foundation of Venice to give thanks to. A huge one to miss. Sorry.

CALL US AT 207-1111. No problem. It was truly wrong, cruel and thoughtless to kill the birds at the pier. Once again, someone's done something and they say it's not illegal. Go figure. Well, I'm one who says if they have a prob- lem with people eating outside and the birds, they won't have to worry about it because I sure won't go down there to eat anymore. And I hope that other people who respect wild- life and birds do the same. Put up. To the right-to-lifers: Put your money where your mouth is. All of you should contribute to Our Mother's House. Many want the baby to be born, but won't do anything to help the needy mothers. Put up or shut up. So it goes. To the son of an owner of Sharky's who claimed those poor pigeons were in the people's way on the pier - you obviously don't know much about birds in general. You brag that your restaurant is smack-dab on the Gulf. Well, having birds there goes with that privilege, buddy. Just stupid. Funny, but not ha-ha funny, is how I keep read- ing that the economy is on the upturn. Yet you guys elected many Republicans to office even though they are the ones who put this country in the hole. Stupid is what stupid does. Deserved. Regarding some article in the paper about the Venice High School volleyball team: Yes, the penalty is rather harsh, but the activities by the coach and team were a very bad display of sportsmanship. Also, the school administra- tor and some players seem to condone or defend the coach and the team. Example: The principal had no plans for punishment. The coach needs to be personally penalized and suspended with no pay for his actions. Yes, he's a good coach, but he has placed too much pressure and emphasis on win- ning. Everybody can't be first. If Let 'em Have It you or team can't accept losing graciously, don't play the game. The action of the team and the coach definitely showed poor sportsmanship and to me demonstrated that they thought that they were better that day than the opponent, or the referee gave the win to the opposing team. The team has been instructed well by the coach, but obviously has not been taught good sportsman- ship. The coach, the principal and the team admitted to poor judgment, but that's no excuse. Most of the people in prison or jail would also admit to that. The columnist said that the ac- tion of the coach did not define their team or the coach, but I think their behavior did define poor sportsmanship. Editor's Note: The coach is in fact being disciplined by the school. Bow-wow. I like dog racing. If you don't like, stay away, but don't tell me what I can do and what I can't. There are some who want government to intervene, but at other times they say keep government out of our lives. Can't have it both ways. Another thing: Why are they paying for staff to research men with long index fingers who are prone to get prostate cancer? What do they suggest they do, cut off the tip of their fingers? Bye, bye birdie. The eagles have not landed, they have been disposed of. That shows just what big money means. Seeing red. After learning the Florida High School Athletic Association's ruling against the Venice volleyball team, I see red. Close your eyes for a mo- ment and imagine the conver- sation in that high esteemed office. "They what?!" "Yeah, they threw it in the Gulf." "They can't do that, it's ours. We design it. They pay $1,000 a year for us to do our thing, and they threw it in the water?! We need to do something really dramatic, like slam them good. They're too good of a team, and we need to make an example of them! From our lofty position, how's three years? That should do it. And have a fine, too. Do we need to talk to the coach and the players? No, we read a newspaper article and that's good enough." To interview those involved would be an excellent teaching moment. I thought we were in the educa- tion business. The opportunity was golden and undoubtedly would have been the most impressive option, and it was wasted. Nothing personal, no face-to-face, just an op- portunity to learn what fine young people were all about. Just jump to conclusions and a "how do we get out of this rul- ing without egg on our faces?" The people in high places need to be accountable also. If the names and places would be published, we could give them our reaction. Personally, we are just northern fans who go every year and have no students in- volved. The people, the players and the coach were wrong, so what's marvelous about a piece of wood and a little plastic? WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 2010 By EVELYN C. HENEY GUEST COLUMNIST Years ago, I requested my son Sean to ask people not to send flowers after I die, but to make a donation to the Hu- mane Society or to their local animal shelter in my name instead. I'm a realist. What good are flowers when you can't see them or smell them? Is it supposed to be a measure of some kind that shows your grief? The larger the display, the bigger your grief? I think not. I just learned last week that more than 75 million animals are killed for their fur every year. Even though alternative fabrics of all types have elimi- nated the need to kill animals for their fur, many animals - yes, dogs and cats, too - are still being skinned alive or held struggling underwater to drown, all in the name of fashion. How can someone willingly buy and even wear something made of animal fur, knowing that an animal's life was sac- rificed for something trivial as a fur coat or even just a little trim on the collar or cuffs of a jacket? Did you know that gar- ments such as fur-trimmed parkas, gloves, hats, boots and other items advertised as "faux fur" may actually be made from a dog or a cat? In 2000, Congress passed a law that banned the sale of dog and cat fur in the United States. But because of a label- ing loophole, any garment trimmed with $150 or less worth of fur can be sold with- out any label, perhaps leading some manufacturers to think they can illegally slip dog and cat fur onto jackets and other apparel, and no one will notice. American consumers, shopping off the rack in our local department stores, or buying online from top de- signers, remain uninformed and unprotected. We need to eliminate the loophole that allows animal fur trim to go unlabeled by contacting our senators. Let them know we want to pass the Truth in Fur Labeling Act, S.B. 1076. The Humane Society Le- gistrative Fund is leading this fight, and any donation would be appreciated. Right now, any fur worth less than $150 does not need to be labeled. Just think: The going price for these animals is 30 rabbits at $5 each; five raccoons at $28 each; or three badgers, beavers, minks, grey or red foxes for $50 each. And a bear or timber wolf for $150 each. Doesn't that make you sick? Every 15 seconds a dog or cat is killed for its fur. China kills 2 million dogs and cats per year. These animals are skinned alive. China seems to have the same respect for land animals as it does for sharks and whales. China furs are labeled "faux fur" when they are actually animal fur. Watch your labels when buying. Animals cannot speak for themselves, so it's up to car- ing people like us to speak for them. You may write to Sens. LeMieux and Nelson giving your support for passing this important bill, at: Humane Society Legislative Fund, P.O. Box 96025, Washington DC 20077-7353. A donation included to HSLF would be greatly appreciated. You may also call our Florida senators at (202) 224-3121. If you do write, please include that you strongly sup- port the Truth in Fur Labeling Act, S.B.1076. Also, include your name and address with your signature. Occasional coni, itvto, Evelyn C.

I LETTERS FROM OUR READERS That faux'fur may be real Time to pull some teeth Editor: When I first arrived here in 1993, a friend referred to our black and turkey vultures as "the cleaners," and are they ever. Well, since then sharks' tooth searchers can also be categorized as "cleaners," for the teeth are now as scarce as hen's teeth on the beaches. Where are the sharks' teeth now? Many are in containers of all sizes in the residences of Venice. In my travels around the area as a Realtor/handyman/ house sitter, I see pounds upon pounds of sharks' teeth stored where only a few people would ever see them. There must be hundreds of pounds of captured and stored teeth around the area that could be released, to the joy of our area's vacationers. Let's restore the moniker "Sharks' Tooth Capital," in nature's reality, to our area by setting up an amnesty-type program to return the contain- er-confined teeth back into the Gulf so that young and not- so-young can search for them again and again. Would not this be a great organizational project for our chamber of commerce, Venice MainStreet, a Boy or Girl Scout troop or a community service group? Gift cards to restaurants, special prizes for largest return of the month, periodic releases of teeth into the surf and so on would make us once again a real sharks' tooth capital and forestall the need to bring in casinos, cruise ships, huge planes, monorails and other attractions to make us a "Des- tination Capital of the World," as poignantly cautioned in a letter from Warren Stewart. Jim Bath Venice It's all in your attitude Editor: I am appalled by the let- ter published in the weekend edition written by a disabled woman. Her anger and hostil- ity scare me. I too am disabled and I am a widow. Instead of being grate- ful that she at least still has a husband, she seems filled with hate for people simply doing their job. I too am 5 feet tall, have a metal plate in one leg, another in my hip and until recently also had an implant in my body (my body rejected it) to try to alleviate the severe, non- stop, chronic, excrutiating pain in my lower back. This woman needs to get down on her knees and thank God for her blessings instead of lashing out at people simply doing their job. I thank God every day that I am still alive, the sun is shining, the majority of people are smiling, eagerly enjoying the Christmas season, whereas my entire family is in Ireland and I will spend my Christmas not alone but volunteering to help the home- less and helpless who are less fortunate than I am. There is no room in my life for self-pity, anger or hostility in my life, and people constantly wonder and ask me why I am so happy all the time. I always tell them it's a choice I make al- most immediately after I wake up in the morning, because I don't like the alternative. By the way, I gave the last dollar I had to the Salvation Army, because it really felt good to do so. I'm truly grateful also for the food stamps I just now re- ceived because I needed food and had no money at all.

PENTZ SPORTS EDITOR A day after missing 19 foul shots, Venice used the same line to its advantage and it helped lift the Lady Indians to a 32-19 victory over Lakeland Kathleen in the semifinals of the Sunrise Division of the Willie Clemons Girls Basketball Classic on Tuesday after- noon at Southeast High in Bradenton. Venice (13-2) plays Riverview for the Sunrise Division championship at 4:30 p.m. today at Southeast High. This is the second meeting of the season against the Lady Rams, who handed the Lady Indians one of their two losses. In fact, it was the last time Venice lost as the Lady Indians have strung together six straight wins. "We looking forward to tomorrow," said Venice coach John Flynn. "It's going to be a nice game. A chance to get a little revenge. I would be nice to get out of here with a little trophy." In the streak, Ven- ice's defense has been shutdown as opponents are only averaging 31.1 points a game in the six- game span. Venice's defense stepped up again against the Lady Red Devils (7-6) by limiting them to single digit scoring in all four quarters including nearly shutting them out in the second quarter. While the defense was working so was the foul shooting. The Lady Indians con- nected on 17-of-22 foul shots including 9-of-lO in the second half. This was a vast im- provement from Mon- day's game against Braden River as the Lady Indians only made 13-of- 32 in their 41-31 victory. "If we can play defense like we did today we can live through some of that SUN PHOTOS BY JUSTIN FENNELL Venice's Hannah Revels drives through Kathleen High School defenders to make a layup during Tuesday's game at the Willie Clemons Classic in Bradenton. IIT - .7 - --- Venice's Juliana Cavallaro, center, steals the ball from Kathleen High's My'Esha Williams during the first half of Tuesday's game at the Willie Clemons Classic at Southeast High School in Bradenton. (lapses in offense)," said Flynn. "If we make foul shots and play defense we will be OK." For the second straight game, Venice's offense has struggled especially early. It took the Lady Indi- ans nearly three minutes to score its first points. A 3-pointer by Juliana Ca- vallaro with 3:41 left gave Venice a 6-3 first-quarter lead. Kathleen tallied the final four points of the quarter to take a 7-6 lead. Venice's defense really kicked into high gear in the second quarter by forcing six turnovers and limiting the Lady Red Devils to just one point. The only point scored came with 29.4 seconds left in the quarter. Venice scored nine points in the quarter to take a 15-8 halftime cushion. The Lady Indi- ans hit 5-of-8 from the line. Venice, who only con- nected on seven field goals, had six field goals from Cavallaro, who led in scoring with 21 points. Cavallaro was also 8-of-8 from the foul line. "I'm worried about the offense for the whole game," said Flynn. "We are not executing very well. We are not finding creases and seams." Two foul shots by Taylor McCutcheon gave Venice a 22-12 lead after three quarters. Kathleen pulled within 24-16 but the Lady Indi- ans closed out the game outscoring them, 8-3 including 6-of-6 from the foul line. "A little bit better than yesterday," said Flynn. "Their point guard is pretty good. Juliana did a nice job of keeping her away from the basket." Junior Laura Hackett had eight rebounds while junior Hannah Revels chipped in with seven rebounds.

FIRST ROUND Venice 41, Braden River 31 Venice limited Braden River to three field goals and single-digit scoring in the second half to lift the Lady Indians to a 41-31 win in the open- ing round of the Willie Clemons Tournament on Monday afternoon at Southeast High. It was a victory for the Lady Indians (12-2) but it didn't please coach John Flynn as they committed 29 turnovers and missed 19 shots from the foul line. "You leave the gym on Thursday just jacked up and can't wait to get here then three days of holidays and you show up flat," said Flynn. "We played terrible."

COURTESY PHOTO The Venice Pythons 13-and-under baseball club show off their trophy after capturing the IBC State Baseball Select Champion- ship in St. Petersburg and Clearwater. The Pythons won four of five games to win the season-ending tournament. Members of the Pythons are, front row, from left, Danny Manieri, Evan Carv- alho, Tyler Gardner, Dean Carvalho, Jake Grubbs, Ryan Gumbs; back row, from left, Nick Brown, Tyler McAlpine, Ryan Dinka, Brock Peyton, Ryan Tully, Trey Schaetzer, Austin Collins, Zach Alport and Travis Richards. Not pictured is Eric Brown. The Pythons won four of five games en route to taking the season-ending title. In the tournament opener, the Pythons de- feated the St. Pete Sting- ers 14-9 as pitchers Travis Richards, Ryan Dinka and Nick Brown combined for the win. Ryan Gumbs had three hits and four RBI. The win allowed Venice to rest its starters in the second game using sev- eral bullpen pitchers in a loss to Bandits Baseball, but it set up the Pythons' pitching for the single- elimination round. Tyler Gardner, Eric Brown, Brock Peyton and Austin Collins had timely hits and Danny Minieri was versatile on defense. Against the Tampa Panthers, Ryan Tully tossed a two-hitter over six innings in the Py- thons' 7-2 victory. Dinka pitched the final inning for the Pythons. Venice then defeated the Tampa Bay Stealth, 9-5, as Nick Brown pitched six strong in- nings. Evan Carvalho picked up the save, send- ing Venice into the finals. In the champion- ship game, the Pythons shut down the Naples Naturals, 6-3, as starting pitcher Dinka got the win while Richards secured the save. Trey Schaetzer set up Richards with two innings of middle relief and also made a spec- tacular catch between the legs on a hard line drive up the middle, then threw from his knees to double off the runner at first base to end a Naples scoring threat. Nick Brown had three hits and two RBI while Tyler McAlpine and Zach Alport had two RBI each. Jake Grubbs was solid behind the plate. Enjoy Bogey's Great Food & Support Your Hometown Hangout!

The study, now in its twelfth year, for the first time singled out 50 hospitals rather than the traditional practice of naming 100 winners. The study examined the performance of 1,022 hospitals by analyzing outcomes for patients with heart failure and heart attacks and for those who received coronary bypass surgery and percutaneouscoronary interventions such as angioplasties. This is the fifth year Venice Regional Medical Center has been recognized with this honor. This year's winners were announced November 15 in Modern Healthcare magazine. "We are thrilled not only to be in the top 100 cardiovascular hospitals in the nation for five consecutive years, but also, this year, within the top 50. This recognition touts the expertise of our cardiovascular thoracic surgeons, our cardiologists and our staff," said Peter Wozniak, CEO of Venice Regional Medical Center. The Venice Regional Heart Center was established in July 2003 and has continued to expand each year of its existence. The study shows that 96 percent of cardiovascular inpatients survive and approximately 93 percent remain complication-free, indicative of improved cardiovascular care across-the-board over the past decade. The 50 top hospitals' performance surpasses these high-water marks as indicated by: * Better risk-adjusted survival rates (33 percent fewer deaths than non-winning hospitals for bypass surgery). * Lower complications indices (21 percent lower for heart failure complications). * Fewer patients readmitted to the hospital in the 30 days following discharge. * Shorter hospital visits and lower costs. Top hospitals discharge heart patients a half day sooner and spend $1,300 less per case than non-winners. Dr. Jonathan Fong from the Venice-Ocala Heart Institute and one of the cardiovascular surgeons at Venice Regional Medical Center credits this recognition with never settling for doing well. "We are always striving to provide the best care for our patients. We never want to meet the benchmark, we want to exceed it," explains Fong. "We are honored to receive this award for the fifth year in a row and attribute it to a great team that works in cooperation with one another to ensure the best care for each patient." "We've chosen a more elite group of winners this year. These hospitals have raised the bar significantly," said Jean Chenoweth, senior vice president for performance improvement and 100 Top Hospitals' program at Thomson Reuters. "They deliver higher survival rates, shorter hospital stays, fewer readmissions, and lower costs - which adds up to enormous value for the communities they serve. As a result, everyone benefits: Patients, families, employers, insurers and the hospital itself." The study evaluated general and applicable specialty, short-term, acute care, non-federal U.S. hospitals treating a broad spectrum of cardiology patients. Thomson Reuters researchers analyzed 2008 and 2009 Medicare Provider Analysis and Review (MedPAR) data, Medicare cost reports, and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare data. They scored hospitals in key performance areas: Risk-adjusted mortality, risk-adjusted complications, core measures (a group of measures that assess process of care), percentage of coronary bypass patients with internal mammary artery use, 30-day mortality rates, 30-day readmission rates, severity-adjusted average length of stay, and wage- and severity-adjusted average cost. Make a pledge to be healthy in the new year. Puff, puff. Uncool, unhealthy. Smoking is the single one activity to avoid in order to improve your heart health. Move! By walking, jogging or running, you can reduce your chances of getting heart disease. Exercise also helps the body get rid of toxins, which is a good thing for your heart and your whole body. Redirect your diet. - Instead of whole milk, drink skim milk. - Instead of red meats, eat lean meats. - Instead of junk food, try fruits and vegetables. Check your cholesterol levels regularly. There are medications that can help maintain healthy levels. Weigh in. Any excess weight puts an added strain on your heart and your other organs. Eat only at a dining table. To avoid eating by habit and not by hunger, make yourself a promise to eat only when you're seated at a kitchen or dining room table. That will cut down on snacking in from of the TV, or eating until the bag of chips is empty. 5 meals a day. When you eat smaller, more frequent meals, you won't be tempted to overeat. Get a pet. Pets are so relaxing to people that taking care of a cat or dog can help lower your blood pressure. Have a happy day. A positive attitude can actual result in lower blood pressure.

In Venice, where service clubs rank high, there's a small group of women who for decades have been carrying out the works of charity and fellowship that characterize their sorority. They are the Venice chapter Laureate Gam- ma Tau, of Beta Sigma Phi, a women's nonacademic sorority. Nationwide, Beta Sigma Phi has more than 10,000 members. The sorority was created by a man, Walter W. Ross, in 1931 to help women help each other lead a more fulfilling life. Their motto is "Life, learning and friendship." For the nine Venice chapter mem- bers, it's more like a lifeline - a social network that helps guide them through some of life's most cherished and most difficult times. Some of the Gamma Taus have been participating in philanthropic endeav- ors for more than 50 years. The roster includes chapter presi- dent Jan Fessler, Libby Ainscow, Nancy Detotto, Julie Hilz, Jane Lachiusa, El- enore Mansfield, Dee Martorana, Helen Osborne and BettyWalker. A few shared their story with the Gondolier Sun. Lachiusa, formerly of Pennsylvania and western New York, joined when she was in her late 30s. That was unusual, she said, because most women joined in their early 20s. It was 1973 when a co-worker at a local bank invited her to a citywide "rush." Fifty attended, she recalled, and nine of them created their own chapter. She recalls moving 15 times with her husband, an auto factory representa- tive. Key to making each of those moves successful was the instant friendships created by searching out members of the sisterhood. "It's been a big plus. A great experi- ABOUT BETA SIGMA PHI Beta Sigma Phi International is headquartered in Kansas City, Mo. Membership costs $62 to join, and $38 a year dues provide members with a sorority pin; a subscription to the international magazine, The Torch of Beta Sigma Phi; a membership card and a benefits program. To join, call Jan Fessler, president, 493-6790, or Nancy Detotto, 485-4139. For more information, go to www.betasigmaphi. org. ence," Lachiusa said. "Everything was an adventure. It came in handy espe- cially when I was younger. The conven- tions and three-day weekends provided not only enrichment programs, and taught arts and crafts and history, but it was a great time away from the family. When you returned, you felt renewed. "The contacts you made. What you learned. You were just exposed to so many things." When she retired to Venice, she im- mediately searched out fellow Beta Sigma Phi members. There were the twice-monthly meet- ings, at which the issues of the day were discussed, and the never-ending fundraisers helping troubled teenagers, research for St. Jude Children's Re- search Hospital, the Lupus Foundation and other causes. "You name it, we've supported it," Lachiusa said. By their nature, the Gamma Taus are an outgoing bunch. "Venice encourages service organiza- tions like ours," Lachiusa said. "There are so many people in Venice always ready to do what needs to be done." When she's not getting together with friends, Lachiusa participates in two church groups and enjoys attending annual family reunions with her sister in Bradenton. Nancy Detotto joined Beta Sigma Phi at the encouragement of a neighbor. "We moved to Syracuse, N.Y, and a Members of the board of the Venice chapter Laureate Gamma Tau of Beta Sigma Phi sorority include Elenore Mansfield; Libby Ainscow; Dee Martorana; Jan Fessler, president; and Jane Lachiusa. neighbor introduced herself. She was a Beta Sigma Phi," she said. "Her kids got to know my kids. Pretty soon we were hanging out. I found the women very in- teresting. They had diverse occupations. There were artists and even poets." In her group the husbands eventually got involved, creating new friendships for the men. After a while, Detotto recalled, a group of 15 began yearly vacations together to the Adirondack Mountains. Like Lachiusa, upon retirement in Ven- ice she looked up fellow Beta Sigma Phis. "When we came to Venice I called the national organization and asked for addresses in the area," she said. "There were two almost within walking distance." She developed new friendships, but also has kept in touch by mail with sisters in former locations. It's clear she enjoys helping oth- ers and taking part in the causes that define her organization, like a program for children of prisoners the Gamma Taus learned about from her church, Good Shepherd Episcopal, and this year's project, assisting the Humane Society. Last year her church and people from St. Mark's Episcopal Church apprised the group of three children from the Dominican Republic who didn't have the financial means to attend school. The Beta Sigma Phis decided to help fund an 11-year-old girl's education out of their own pockets. If the group gets a call from the Salvation Army, the women might go shopping and collect white goods like tissue paper, paper towels and prod- ucts that can't be purchased with food stamps. "They are so very appreciative," Detotto said.

At home they help by sponsoring others in the annual crop walk on the island to help feed the needy locally and nationwide. After a lifetime of giving, the Gamma Taus meet less frequently now - once a month. It's more of a social event these days, Detotto said. "We used to rush," Detotto said. "We're not doing the pajama parties anymore, where a meeting gets called at 11 p.m. and you have to show up dressed exactly as you were. Everyone knew who wore curlers. "It's meant so much to us. Over the years there has been a lot to exchange. A lot of helping each other over rough spots, helping deal with children in school ... people passing." "It's good enough to know we helped," Detotto said. ggiles@venicegondolier.com Sorority members laid food gifts beneath the Christmas tree as a benefit to the food pantry at Epiphany Cathedral. $650 MINI IMPLANT TO SUPPORT A LOWER DENTURE (D6010) Present this coupon to redeem the offer.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 2010 COFFEE BREAK SUN NEWSPAPERS 3B Veterans donate to Wounded Warriors program FROM FLORIDA VETERANS FOR COMMON SENSE The Florida Veterans for Com- mon Sense local committee led by Harry Stimmel and Kevin Connelly organized a holiday party for wounded warriors being treated at James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital in Tampa. The Venice Democratic Club and South Bay Subdivision as- sisted FLVCS with the event by collecting gift items and pre- paring holiday cards. The Gulf Coast Community Foundation of Venice contributed a $1,000 grant toward expenses. The day of the party, Dec. 17, Stimmel and Connelly, accompanied by eight FLVCS members and FLVCS friends, traveled to Tampa with a van loaded with personal items needed by the patients at the hospital. The party was held for pa- tients who did not have family or friends in the area. The group, patients and staff enjoyed a festive pizza party where each patient received a tote bag filled with miscel- laneous gifts. The bags were topped off by a baseball cap with the patients' branch of service on the front and the patients' names on back. Other gifts in the bags were chit books for use in the hospital restaurant, barber- shop and store, and every bag contained miscellaneous items like wheelchair gloves and toiletries. The most appreci- ated items in the bags were letters thanking the patients for their service and sacrifice and reminding them they are not forgotten. The party was so successful, Stimmel and Connelly have already begun planning next year's party.

What do you respond? A - If you play that a jump raise to three diamonds is forcing, you have no problem. These days, however, the majority play it as invitational or preemptive, so you have to take a dif- ferent route. Temporize with two clubs - a one-round force in any method. Q 2 - Neither vulnerable, as South you hold: SJ 8 K Q 10652~07 aAJ85 The bidding has proceeded: SOUTH WEST NORTH EAST 1 Pass 16 Pass 9 What do you bid now? A - There is a textbook treatment for hands with 6-4 distribution. If your opening bid is minimum and your six-card suit is the higher-ranking, rebid your six-card suit rather than introduce your four-bagger. With a better than minimum opening, rebid in your four-card suit, planning to confirm an original six-card holding at your third turn. Since you are min- imum, rebid two hearts. Q 3 - As South, vulnerable, you hold: A Q87 AK60834AKJ72 The bidding has proceeded: SOUTH WEST NORTH EAST 14 Pass I Pass What do you bid now? A - An awkward hand. You opened with one in a suit because it was a mite strong for one no trump, but you are now faced with a rebid problem. A jump to three clubs would suggest a six-card suit, while a jump to three hearts guarantees four-card support. However, the latter is the lesser evil - jump to three hearts. Q 4 - As South, vulnerable, you hold: SJ9 KQJ 6 5 4 A5 874 The bidding has proceeded: NORTH EAST SOUTH 16 2NT* 33 46 Pass ? *Unusual - for the minors What do you bid now? WEST Pass A - Since East's two no trump was a minor-suit takeout, North's four clubs must be a cue-bid, implicitly agreeing hearts as the trump suit. Since you have nothing to be ashamed about your three-heart bid, make a return cue-bid of four dia- monds to show your control in that suit. Q 5 - As South, vulnerable, you hold: 4AJ764 95 0962K 107 The bidding has proceeded: NORTH EAST SOUTH 10 Pass 16 2V Pass ? What do you bid now? WEST Pass A - In the modern style, North's reverse is a one-round force. Therefore, a return to opener's first suit is still forcing, since his reverse promised another bid. That offers you a choice of rebids: either three dia- monds, to show sound values and at least three-card support for his first- bid suit, or two spades, to show a rea- sonable five-card major. Opt for the latter. Q 6 - East-West vulnerable, as South you hold: AA7 J90 J76424J984 The bidding has proceeded: NORTH EAST SOUTH WEST 16 24 ? What action do you take? A - Other than the ace of spades, your hand is virtually trickless. You simply do not have the values either to dou- ble, whether for penalties or takeout, or to take any other positive action. Pass. If partner has a good hand, there is still time to get into the bid- ding.

DONOHUE: I have hemochromatosis - too much iron in the body. My doctor takes blood every other week. What can you tell me about it? What's the end result? - H.G. ANSWER: Hemochro- matosis is an unpro- nounceable name with close to zero recognition by the general public. The sad truth is it is a fairly common condition. It's one of the most wide- spread inherited illnesses. Normally the digestive tract absorbs just enough iron to replace daily losses. People with two hemochromatosis genes - one from the mother and one from the father - absorb far too much iron. The excess is depos- ited in many organs, like the liver, pancreas, heart, pituitary gland and testes, and severely damages them. Signs that these organs are in trouble don't appear until later in life - 40 for men and older for women, who lose iron from menstru- ating. Frequently the first indication of trouble is abnormal liver tests, discovered when a person has an exam for some unrelated reason. If hemochromatosis is discovered early, treat- ment can begin early and organs are saved. If it goes undiscovered, liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, heart failure, diabetes and skin with a bronzed hue are some of the possible complications. With early treat- ment, hemochromatosis patients live a normal life. Treatment is simple. It consists of periodic removal of blood, the body's storage depot of iron. Because this is a genetic disease, your close rela- tives - parents, brothers and sisters - should be screened for it. A genetic test for your spouse will tell you if your children also should have a genetic test. The gene test is a relatively new break- through in this illness. It permits early treatment and prevents the compli- cations of the illness. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I have followed the sugges- tion that we should drink eight glasses of water each day for good health. I recently was diagnosed with low blood sodium. I was told to reduce the amount of water I drink. Shouldn't we be informed by medical professionals that eight glasses of water a day isn't necessary? - PL. ANSWER: OK. Eight glasses of water a day isn't necessary. People should drink enough fluids - all fluids count - to keep their urine color pale- yellow and to keep them- selves from being thirsty. You have to drink quite a large amount of fluids, water included, to lower your blood sodium. Did you have any symp- toms from your drop in sodium?

Do you have any suggestion for how eggnog can be used in recipes? I hate to be wasteful! -- A Reader, via e-mail You can use it to make yummy and rich eggnog waffles or pancakes. Just substitute the eggnog for milk in the recipe that you use. - Heloise Mashed potatoes Dear Heloise: My family loves mashed potatoes, and it was always a last- minute dish for me to prepare, until I came up with this idea. I cook and mash the potatoes before my guests arrive. I put the potatoes in a lightly greased casserole and put in the oven at 225 degrees for 20 minutes. When I'm ready to serve, I put the casserole in an attractive casserole carrier. The potatoes are hot, and the dish is easy for my guests to pass. Cleanup is easy, and I no longer have the last- minute stress of making mashed potatoes. - R.H. in Minnesota Cleaning pans Dear Heloise: I was trying to clean a glass cake pan I had used to roast potatoes when I realized I didn't have any abrasive cleanser. All I had was dishwashing powder. It worked great; my pan looks better than ever! - Janine in New York Hints from Heloise Janine, dishwasher powder is super to use on bakeware. But abrasive cleanser is not. Manu- facturers caution against this, because it may cause the glass to break. Also, don't use a metal scouring pad or brush, because these will scratch the surface. Use a plastic brush or pad. - Heloise No stick Dear Heloise: Due to limited space, I stacked three plastic cake containers together. Bad idea - I could not get them apart. I finally thought about putting them in the freezer for a couple of hours. Worked like a charm - they came apart with no effort. - Glenda in Gastonia, N.C. No seeds Dear Heloise: After squeezing one and a half of the four lemons I had to squeeze, I was getting very annoyed at the tedium of removing the seeds. I took a thin- bladed, sharp-pointed paring knife and dug the seeds out of the small end of each segment before I squeezed the lemon. - MUTTS By Patrick McDonnell BABY BLUES By Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott DOONSBURY By Garry Trudeau YOU KNOWN, I THIAK I ONCE ASKEP HIM IFf L5O LUKSM5 JUST MY PORKY HAIR BeAP5 TH5 dAY I AM, TOO...

Sometimes when he's intoxicated and we're having sex, he acts like he doesn't know who I am. I asked him once, "Are you married?" He said, "No ..." Another time I asked, "Do you have a girlfriend?" and he said, "No, but you're fine ..." The next day he has no idea he said any of this. Should I be worried? -WRONG ANSWER IN CHICAGO DEAR WRONG ANSWER: Absolutely. You should be worried not only about the fact that your husband is prob- ably having extracur- ricular sex, but also that he has a drinking problem so severe he doesn't always know who he's sleeping with. You should be worried that after a night of drinking he can't remember clearly the next day what he has said (or has possibly done). If he won't admit he has a problem and seek help, you should contact Al-Anon (it's in your phone book, or find it online at www.al-anon.org). And you should schedule an appointment with your physician to be tested for STDs, because I'M worried he may have given you one - or more. DEAR ABBY: I moved from New Jersey to Florida 20 years ago, married my wife and started a family. My parents relocated here a few years later. When I asked if they would be living nearby, I was told, "No way! We raised our kids already." Hearing it felt hurtful. As time has passed, they have made themselves available to a family who lives near them for baby- sitting and help running their business when the family is on vacation. We have asked my parents on several occasions if we could have some help watching our children, but they said they were too busy or it was too much to handle. We feel we should take priority over "outsiders." But when we bring up the subject, it is met with strong opposition. We just feel like we're not good enough, and don't know how to answer our thanks in His name. I HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19). So many people complain about their jobs.That's why it may be hard for you to believe, but you will actually be seduced by your work and the promise of expanding yourself through it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20).Take pleasure in your surroundings. A life that is bereft of pleasure is a setup for overindulgence and destructive habits. If you can't delight in your surroundings, you need to change them. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Do you really have to know how the ride works in order to sit back and enjoy it? No. In fact, there are times when knowing too much ruins the experience. CANCER (June 22-July 22). It's a nervous feeling that wells up in you when that certain someone is around. What thoughts are going through your head when you talk to this person? Change the inner game. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Do not shirk away from the conflict.The drama forces you to go deeper into yourself and learn who you really are. It is exhilarating to jump in the ring.Tell yourselfthe fight is just getting good. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).Things aren't progressing as fast as you'd like them to, and you'll be tempted to take matters into your own hands. Follow the correct protocol. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).The perfect balance of connection and disconnection will be represented in a relationship. You'll enjoy activities that allow you to do your own thing right alongside someone who is doing his or her own thing.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. - BEWILDERED IN FLORIDA DEAR BEWILDERED: Your situation is sad, but my advice is to accept that you won't be getting any help from - or becoming any closer to - your parents. They may have refused your requests for help because they don't care for your spouse, or your children really ARE too much for them to handle. I'm sorry. DEAR ABBY: I lost my 84-year-old mother in an accident. I called Mom's friends, many of whom are also elderly. Several of them talked on and on about their problems, their poor health, their spouses' poor health - and one even went on and on about her hot water tank "blowing up"! Would you please remind people that when they get a courtesy call from a grieving family member to please listen, say, "Thank you for calling to let me know," and to offer condolences for their loss. - BEREAVED DAUGHTER, LIVONIA, N.Y DEAR BEREAVED DAUGHTER: Allow me to offer my condolences for the loss of your mother. I'm pleased to print your letter because not everyone knows how to handle a phone call such as you had to make. It's possible that the folks you called were either uncom- fortable with the subject, and so they tried to deflect it by discussing what was going on in their lives - or they have heard about death so often at their age that they have become accustomed to hearing such sad news.

December 29, 2010-January 4, 2011 E/N/C/V uhZ~ The year in review What a special year this has been. From the International Theatre Festival at Venice Theatre to the pre-Broadway opening of the musical "Bonnie & Clyde," live theater is indeed alive and well on the Cultural Coast. Seeing 16 productions in one week is something I will long remember. I did that during the interna- tional festival when I saw 12 one-hour shows at Venice Theatre and then spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday seeing four other area productions, including a circus show in the Historic Asolo Theater at the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art. I also went to several openings at the museum, and twice, I took hard-hat tours of the new Dali Museum in St. Petersburg. It opens Jan. 11, with visiting royalty from Spain. Even if Dali is not your favorite artist, you must see this new museum which, itself is a work of art, and hurricane proof. I enjoyed the Noe Espana-produced circus in Venice and the always fabulous Circus Sarasota which will present its 2011 season Feb. 3-21 under the big top on Tuttle at 12th in Sarasota with half-price tickets for the first five shows. Of course I visited my favorite duck at Walt Disney World. I also went behind the scenes of the MainStreet Electrical parade which returned to the Magic Kingdom in June. On vacation with my daughter last March, I finally had enough Delta miles to fly us to Barcelona. We will return. That is high praise from one lucky enough to live here in paradise on the cultural coast. May your new year also be filled with adventures in paradise.

One of the only attractions in the country to bring together legendary World War II heroes to share their firsthand accounts, the attraction is expanding on its highly popular "Living History Symposium Series" that introduced aviation heroes to Fantasy of Flight guests the past two years. The new "Legends & Legacies" series will combine WWII aviation heroes, who will offer a glimpse of what it was like to fly in the heyday of aviation as they protected their country, with their families, who have their own unique insights to share. The series will also include heroes from WWII who served on the ground protecting and supporting the men and women in flight. Each symposium will feature several open-forum/ question-and-answer sessions, followed by meet- and-greet/autograph signing sessions. The newly expanded series features six topics scheduled for 2011. These include 'They Dared to Fly: Featuring the Tuskegee Airmen" in honor of National Black History Month, Feb. 10-12; "Break- ing All Barriers: The Amazing Women of WWI'," in honor of National Women's History Month, March 4-5; "Calculated Risk: The Extraordinary Life of Jimmy Doolittle," April 15-16; "D-Day: The Inva- sion of Normandy," May 13-14; "The Pacific War: - - - - - - - - - - , I.

SUN PHOTOS BY KIM COOL Built in Philadelphia in 1948, this "Visa-Dome" car was one of seven which always graced the rear of every "California Zephyr" train during the Steamliner Era of the 1950s and 1960s. It can be toured by visitors to the Gold Coast Railway Museum in Miami. BY KIM COOL FEATURES EDITOR What's not to love about trains? My parents' generation took the Califor- nia Zephyr cross country. We had a toy train that chugged around the Christmas tree each year when I was a child. Today, kids can't wait for the arrival of the Thomas the Tank Train. At the Gold Coast Railroad Museum in Miami, one can see several locomotives, passenger cars, the Zephyr Vista Dome car and the Ferdinand Magellan, which served as Presidential Rail Car U.S. Number 1. In 1985, the car became Dade County's first national historic landmark. The Zephyr has been part of the museum collection since 1981, having served sight- seeing riders to America's west from 1949 to 1970. The way to really sense the size of the U.S. is to make a cross country trip by car or train. Six hours on a plane is not the same as actually riding across the plains and up, down and around the mountains from sea to shining sea, passing Yellowstone Park, Grand Canyon and other such sites along the way. At night, seated in the dome car with the lights out, the night sky puts on a show of its own. In addition to the Zephyr, visitors can walk through the Silver Vale, the Silver Slumber and Silver Stag. It is like going back in time to that kinder gentler era of travel when meals were served on heavily starched white linen cloths and quadruple plate silver graced din- ing car tables. Also to be seen is the first presidential rail car, dating to 1928. For presidential protec- tion, the car was rebuilt and used first by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, in 1942. Its final use was for one day, Oct. 12, 1984, 30 years after it went out of service. On that day, President Ronald Reagan used the car for a whistle-stop tour between Dayton and Toledo, Ohio. Its U.S. Historic-Landmark inspection took place the same day by the National Parks Service. It passed. Funds are being collected to restore the Magellan to the original condition and style in which it served the country until 1954. The only thing missing is the observation deck Steam Engine Number 153 was built in May, 1922, by the American Locomotive Company, Schenectady, New York.lt was in service on the Florida East Coast Railway from 1922 until 1938. Non-operational, it can be seen up close at the Gold Coast Railway Museum in Miami. elevator used by FDR. Until then, the museum offers occasional limited tours of the car. Check before your visit. On the grounds are a red caboose and sev- eral other railroad train cars and a hand car. The original 2,107-acre site was the Naval Air Station Richmond, the largest coastline airship base during World War II. It had three hangers which were considered the largest wooden structures ever built. One corner tower remains from the hangers, which were destroyed in a fire concurrent with a Sept. 15, 1945 hurricane. Each hanger was large enough to hold the equivalent of four Boeing 747s. The site was decommissioned in 1946. The museum is open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on weekends from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.The museum's model trains can be seen weekdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and weekends from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Train rides are available but should be booked two weeks in advance. Thomas the Tank will be there in March. For information, visit www.gcrm.org or call 305-253-0063. Currently, admission is free the first Saturday of each month. Call to make sure.

E/N/C/V swwDecember 29, 2010-January 4, 2011 GO Th BY MARY MCNAMARA LOS ANGELES TIMES There was definitely a transitional feel to the year in television, understandable given that 2010 was either the end of a memo- rable decade on TV or the beginning of a new one. 2010, in fact, was pretty much both. "24" launched not long after Sept. 11, 2001, and wrapped in May, or "Day 8" at exactly 4 p.m. A state-of-the-art revenge fantasy had finally exhausted a seemingly inexhaustible supply of bad guys and semi-plausible plot lines. "Lost," too, emerged from a self-imposed shad- ow world of riddles, clues, red herrings, smoke monsters and polar bears. (Everyone lived! Then died. Just like in real life.) TV's great mind-meld experiment with obsessed fans - a successful one - had finally run its course as well. Then, there was late-night chaos. In 2009, NBC and a (very) few misguided pundits declared Jay Leno's 10 p.m. show the "Future of Televi- sion." By early 2010 that future was dragged back to the past after a mass revolt by NBC stations who saw their 11 p.m. newscasts shrivel in the immediate wake of "The Jay Leno Show." Can- celed, the host found himself without a show, but not for long. NBC wanted Jay back at 11:30 p.m., and Conan O'Brien was told to move "Tonight' to midnight (where, even if not semantically, it would have become "Tomorrow Morning"). Instead, he television year in review moved to TBS. The architects of the debacle were later forced out by NBC Universal's new owner, Comcast. But what of the beginning? Well ... take a deep breath ... there was "Hawaii Five-0," "The Defenders," "Raising Hope," "Better With You," "Mike and Molly," "Blue Bloods" and "$(*)! My Dad Says," which are all working reasonably well but not - inexplicably - as well as "Jersey Shore" which set viewing records in its 2010 sophomore season, or as well as "The Walking Dead," which was the most watched AMC show ever (take that, "Mad Men") and earned a Golden Globe nod in the bargain. Snooki, Situation, JWoww and zombies as 2010's breakout stars? There's a punch line here. Somewhere. I can hardly wait for 2011. BEST TV OF 2010 *THE PACIFIC' (HBO) -Though not always in the habit of repeating myself, nevertheless, here's a line from the May review and I see no reason to change the assessment: "An honest and often magnificent tribute to the 1st Marine Division." 2001's "Band of Brothers" was arguably a more satisfying film - and more engrossing story - but this was more visually spectacular. The year's crowning achievement. * 'BREAKING BAD' (AMC) - Not enough viewers seem to be paying enough attention to TV's best series, while all the buzz - and love - seems to cling to "Mad Men."That's OK (see No. 5), but networks have a way of dismissing series that most viewers have dismissed. "BB's" third season was even better than it's second, while an episode in May - simply titled "Fly" - was the best 44 minutes of TV I saw all year. *'MODERN FAMILY' (ABC) - What else to add in praise of this most praiseworthy series? The second season so far is actually superior to the first, which means this is guaranteed another best comedy Emmy. There are few shows on TV as funny or as precocious as this except for... (see No. 7). * 'MAD MEN' (AMC) - I'm not sure which epi- sode I swooned over more, but it would probably have to be Sept. 5's "The Suitcase," in which Don (Jon Hamm) goes on an all-night bender in the office while a stupefied Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) looks on helplessly. Don awakes from his drunken stupor to see ... a ghost. A great episode in another extraordinary season. * 'LOST' (ABC) - The finale was a bit disappointing - no need to get into that now - but the episodes leading up to the End were flat-out glorious: Widmore and his sub; Sawyer as a cop; the secret of Alpert's immortality; Jack and Locke in L.A.; Jacob; the Man in Black; their mom. This classic gave so much joy and pleasure over six seasons - and the final one delivered as well. *'THE OFFICE' and '30 ROCK (NBC) -Twin works of comic glory. My love and admiration for both remains boundless - and undiminished. * 'MEN OF A CERTAIN AGE' (TNT) -Terrific new series with a great cast that explores midlife drift with humor and a certain amount of poi- gnancy.The tone lightened the second season, which makes it even more entertaining. * 'THE WALKING DEAD' (AMC) - Ah, zombies. Ah, the living humans who have to kill them before they get transformed into zombies themselves. What a surprise this turned out to be - the Halloween launch was good, but the show built in intensity and intrigue and managed to cap it all with one of the best finales of any series all year. This excellent new horror series arrived just as '09's horror standout - True Blood" - curdled. How lucky. * 'MACBETH' (PBS) - A fine, harrowing and, of course, bloody adaptation by Rupert Goold - whose stage production of same also had a brief run at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in 2008. Starring the glorious Patrick Stewart and equally glorious Kate Fleetwood as Lady Macbeth. "Great Performances," in fact, had an absolutely stellar year - and I'd be crimi- nally remiss not to mention David Tennant's starring role in "Hamlet," which also featured Stewart as Claudius and his ghost.

Cheap concert seats due after cruel summer of '10 i i .... ...... --- I ................. Let's Go! BY RYAN NAKASHIMA AP BUSINESS WRITER Concertgoers sick of ballooning ticket prices should have some extra pocket change to rattle with their rock 'n' roll in the new year. 2010 was tough for the concert business as high prices kept many fans at home. Promoters now say they plan to make shows more affordable in 2011. But they'll also try to sell more T-shirts and other merchandise to make up for lost revenue. Heading into last summer, usually the busiest time of the year, prices were set too high despite the sluggish economy Managers and promoters believed fans would keep paying for the one or two concerts they see on average each year. Instead, many stayed home and dozens of shows were canceled. Lots of venues filled seats with fire-sale prices. Now, rather than charge lots early and offer discounts later, some promoters say they'll offer cheaper tickets from the start. That doesn't mean all acts will be cheap - not even Cheap Trick, whose tickets for 2011 are sell- ing for around $80 with fees. Fans of hot perform- ers including Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga also shouldn't expect to get much of a break. Neil Diamond, for instance, who's continuing his comeback tour in New Zealand in February, said he'd like to bring ticket prices down, but can't because of the size of his production. "As the shows get bigger, the expenses get bigger, so it's got to be translated somehow to the ticket price," he told The Associated Press. "If I just used the guitar it'd be a lot simpler, but then I'd have to put 50 people out of work." Overall, though, more artists than ever are going out on the road to make up for falling CD sales. With more tickets on sale and consumers still pinch- ing pennies, the pressure on prices is down. Concert attendance fell 12 percent in the first half of 2010, compared with the same period a year ago, according to trade magazine Pollstar.The world's largest concert promoter, Live Nation Entertain- ment Inc., said attendance from July to September dropped 16 percent from a year ago, even after it slashed fees and prices for dozens of acts. Concert ticket prices had climbed steadily until recently, beginning in the 1990s when promoters began moving from one-price-fits-all ticketing to a tiered model that charges much higher prices for seats close to the stage. North American concert ticket prices rose from an average $26 in 1996 to a peak of $67 in 2008, an increase four times faster than inflation. That doesn't include ticket fees for everything from "order processing" to "convenience," which can tack on $10 or more. In 2009, ticket prices came down by about a buck, as managers braced for the worst of the recession. Fans responded by buying 12 percent more tickets than in 2008. Promoters figured fans were coming back for more in 2010 and raised prices. It backfired. That's when the promoters had to offer deep discounts to fill seats. The average ticket cost a little less than $61 in the first half of 2010. Second-half numbers are expected to show a drop, too, because the discounts have continued. "People felt they could go back to pushing the envelope again," Pollstar editor-in-chief Gary Bongiovanni said. "The economy has proven that a lot of people probably reached too far."

WBTT first produced the Tony-award winning play in 1999. The troupe officially opened its four-event sea- son Dec. 17 after holding two preview nights Dec. 15 and 16 with five heavy-hitter cast members: Ariel Blue, Jnana Cherie, Donald Frison, Whitney Johnson and Leon Pitts.The play runs through Jan. 16. LaTerry Butler, musical director, also served as a cast member who masterfully played all musical scores on the keyboard. Butler has toured nation- ally and internationally with such shows as "The Wiz," "Showboat" and "Dream Girls." The play is set in 1929, during prohibition, and features the music and lyrics of Fats Waller, said Harry Bryce, director and choreographer. While this arrangement brought a story line out of each song, Bryce said the connecting factor was the Fats Waller character (Pitts as Ken) flirting with all the women. Dressed in colorful period attire of the 1930s, compliments of costume designer Alice Bee, the three women vied for the attention of Pitts as Ken in the Harlem juke joint. Typical of this group of entertainers, facial expressions were keen and the few words of script let the audience know there was a lot of jealousy in the cabaret. But Fats Waller loved all of his ladies, and in real life, Waller never married and died at age 39. Nate Jacobs, artistic director, welcomed the audience to WBTT's new home at the preview night Dec. 15, located at 1626 10th Way in the old Mayflower Moving Co. building. Jacobs said he is happy to have a home of their own for the troupe. It's a place where they can not only perform but also they can rehearse there, store costumes and props all PHOTO COURTESY OF WESTCOAST BLACK THEATRE TROUPE Leon Pitts (Ken), front left, Jnana Cherie, back left, Ariel Blue, back right, Donald Frison and Whitney Johnson, center, sing and dance their way into the late 1920s during Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe's production of Ain't Misbehavin' Dec. 17-Jan. 16. in the same place. org.

This much anticipated celebration features a brilliant new cast: The Strauss Symphony of America led by Viennese maestro Christian Schultz, Hungarian soprano Beatrix Lazin, Vien- nese tenor Joachim Moser and members of the Kiev-Aniko Ballet of Ukraine and international champion ballroom dancers. A glorious bouquet of favorite polkas and famous operetta excerpts by "Waltz King" Johann Strauss Jr. and his contemporaries inspire and delight; it is such a wonderful way to ring in the New Year. Entering its 17th season, the "Salute to Vienna" concert series has become a favorite holiday musical tradition throughout North America. It is delightfully reminiscent of Vienna's famous and beloved Neujahrskonzert, performed by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra for over 70 years and televised annually to 1.3 billion people around the globe. Over the past decade STV has grown into the largest live concert series of its kind in North America under the leadership of At- tila and Marion Glatz, co-Presidents of AGCP, the founders and producers of this unique project. After a successful debut in Toronto in 1995, the following year four more sold-out concerts ensued in Vancouver, New York City, West Palm Beach and Sarasota. Of course, the number of cities kept growing and growing. The most promi- nent cultural centers have featured this renowned production and adored musical tradition. To date, over fifty thousand people are able to experience this live, festive Neujahrskonzert without need- ing to travel across the Atlantic to Vienna. The Austrian Government's prestigious Decoration of Merit in Gold was awarded to Marion and Attila Glatz for their remarkable achievement. This amazing musical event has become a New Year's tradition too unique for anyone to miss. What Nutcracker means to Christmas, Salute to Vienna means to the New Year. It is now a treasured annual celebration for everyone to share all over North America, as well as in Vienna,and continues to be a most memorable way to begin a new year! Prosit Neujahr! Tickets start at $49 and are available online at bbmannpah.com, the box office at 8099 College Parkway SW in Fort Myers or by calling 239-481- 4849. For more information, please visit salutetovienna.com. Salute to Vienna's Fort Myers engagement is part of the US Trust Variety Series. HEAR SOME GOOD NEWS? LET US KNOW...

GO Music News The Top 10 albums of 2010 (MCT) A special edition - in descending order, the Top 10 albums of 2010: 10. Big Boi, "Sir Lucious Leftfoot: The Son of Dusty Chico" Dear Jive Records:You screwed up big time. Sure, it's perfectly reasonable to sit on an album for two years if you feel that album has limited commercial potential. It's rather unreasonable, however, in the case of Big Boi's "Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty," which features 14 surefire hit singles by my count. The label hassles would prove to be blessings in disguise. With OutKast partner Andre 3000 legally barred from appearing on the album, Big Boi is finally forced to stand on his own. And stand tall he does. With his bonkers, tongue-twisting MC skills in top form, Big Boi scores key assists from an impressive roster of top rappers and producers, none of whom try to detract our attention from the man of the hour. From the trunk-rattling thump of "Shutterbug" to the breezy, Janelle Monae sung "Be Still," there's more musical ideas and styles at work here than you're likely to see on a dozen lesser hip hop albums. We'll be picking at this overstuffed funhouse of an album for years to come. - Daniel Tebo 9. Gogol Bordello, "Trans-Continental Hustle" Wherever Gogol Bordello goes, they drag the world around with them, violent and gorgeous thing that it is; a reflection, if you will, of the peoples who are pushed, pulled, forced to make new lives in strange lands. The core message of "Trans-Continental Hustle" is perfectly captured in "Uma Menina": "And so I took a knife and then I carved out ... New life line on my palm."The (currently) nine-member band of immigrants that comprises Gogol Bordello is truly the heir to the Clash in terms of punk energy mixed with a smart political message and world beats. Frontman Eugene Hutz growls in his coarse, masculine voice about the gypsy/immigrant curse forever marginalized, forever demonized. "You love our music / but you hate our guts" he howls in "Break the Spell." At once joyful and attractively angry, poignant and playful, this is pure poetry with a punch. I haven't yet figured out what "My Companjera" is about, but the line "Your baby claw stuck in my chest" perfectly illustrates the passionate imagery that leaps from these lyrics. Perhaps the best song, composition-wise, is "When Universes Collide" which, with its stark lyrics, drags the listener down into the slums with it, then gives her heart a hard, hard squeeze. Joy abounds, too, particularly in "Pala Tute," an unabashed ode to the joy of sex combined with a critique of the religious strictures that would have us all remain uptight, unhappy virgins. This is smart, infectious music that feeds one's head and heart, as all good music should. I can see Joe Strummer up in Heaven now, shaking his head and smiling.-- Karen Zarker 8. Titus Andronicus, "The Monitor" Titus Andronicus'"The Monitor" is a record of delirious, towering ambition. It's a concept album that uses the Civil War as a metaphor for per- sonal turmoil, complete with eight-to-14-minute songs and excerpts from period-appropriate speeches. At the same time, though, it's also the best punk rock record in years, with beery, raised- fist singalongs presented with frantic, joyous abandon. This type of combination - high-art complexity mixed with good, old-fashioned vol- ume and passion - is everything that rock 'n' roll can and should be, and it's incredibly refreshing to see bands like Titus Andronicus finding new and compelling ways to fuse these elements. The Monitor is smart, loud, tuneful, exciting and damn near perfect. Not only is it one of the best records of 2010, but it has set the bar pretty high for the coming decade. - David Gassmann 7. Beach House, "Teen Dream" One could argue that what pop music needed most in 2010 was a healthy dose of mystery. As this decade closes and a new one begins, it's fair to say there's never been a smaller divide be- tween artists and fans. As Twitter and Facebook have exploded, music listeners have been able to shrink the mystical shadow that surrounds the creators of popular art. At first, it was cool being provided a wider glimpse into the worlds of our favorite bands. But the more we find out about what Kanye ate for lunch at some posh hotel, the less revelatory our discourse becomes. Beach House's "Teen Dream" exists refreshingly outside of this media-soaked mess. And it's not because of their social networking habits (they have Twit- ter, too, after all). It's because of their jaw-drop- pingly beautiful music, which feels indebted to no particular time, place, or social movement. These ten tracks simply speak for themselves, each a patient, irresistibly catchy exercise in economical grace. The sonic ingredients are familiar, Victoria Legrand's husky alto floating over minimal organs, synths, and modest beats, often bathed in an ocean of reverb. But Legrand and instru- mentalist Alex Scally manage to fashion these glowing, ambient pop lullabies into towering, emotional landmarks. With "Teen Dream," Beach House have made the most mysterious album of 2010, and likely the most resilient. - Ryan Reed 6. LCD Soundsystem, "This Is Happening" LCD Soundsystem mastermind James Murphy has built his band's reputation over the past decade as a great singles act. Even the Soundsystem's critically-acclaimed second album Sound of Silver, solid as it was, got by mostly on the strength of its two incredible standout singles, "Someone Great" and "All My Friends."'This Is Happening" goes a long way towards proving that Murphy and company can keep up that level of L I, H appyA&swyearI UN We Will Be OPEN SIVST L A 1 t New Year's Eve & New Year's Day, -- - Call for Holiday Specials HAPPY HOUR 4PM-6PM "Two FOR ONE" HOURS: MON. thru SUN. 11:30-9PM - 2* r, 7092 PLACIDA RD.

It's a good thing, too, as Murphy seems intent on keeping his promise that this will be the final LCD Soundsystem release. The spectacular opening track, "Dance Yrself Clean," is like a microcosm of everything the band does well. Murphy sings with wit and humor while the music softly rolls along on a bed of percussion, then adds a simple synth line. Af- ter over three minutes of this, the song explodes into a full-on dance song, then continues for almost six more minutes. From there the album is one highlight after another, from goofy single "Drunk Girls," to the warm, cathartic "Home," with its perfect wordless chorus of "Ah"s. In between there's the twin self-pitying love songs "All I Want" and "I Can Change," the sarcastic "You Wanted a Hit," and the hilarious critics vs. artists rant of "Pow Pow."'This Is Happening" may not break new ground for LCD Soundsystem, but it hones their sound to a finely sharpened musical point. If this is indeed the way Murphy intends to retire his brand name, he's going out on one hell of a high. - Chris Conaton 5. Arcade Fire, "The Suburbs" If "Funeral" was in part about the urban neighborhoods that united friends, Arcade Fire's third album 'The Suburbs" focuses on life in the fringes of the city - which essentially makes it an entire record around a loose concept previ- ously explored in Rush's "Subdivisions." One half a love letter to the 'burbs, and one half a nuking of the idea of the nuclear family, the disc Arcade Fire has delivered can be endlessly parsed for all sorts of meaning. No doubt a Ph.D. thesis could be written about this dense, multi-layered album that offers a great deal of rewards, especially upon repeated listening. The front half, in particu- lar, is loaded with catchy, hook-laden tunes that should become a part of the indie rock canon for decades to come. If Neil Young ever had a love child with New Order and Depeche Mode, what you'd get is the result here. And what a glorious, yes, sprawling mediation of growing up on the outskirts looking in is what is offered in "The Sub- urbs." Ultimately, what Arcade Fire has delivered is yet another masterpiece, proving once again that these Montrealers can apparently do no wrong. - Zachary Houle 4. Kanye West, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" The operative word in "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" is "my," the signpost for the intersection between West's personal issues and his possessiveness. Small wonder the first word he utters is "I." Previously, 808s & Heartbreak purged his personal ills through an icy, though not soulless, Auto-Tune filter. Eclectic and ostenta- tious, West's "Fantasy" offers a warmer, brighter palette. The language glows. The choruses soar. Verses are delivered by monsters, and populated with porn stars, abusers, devils, and centaurs (or "fat booty Celine Dions").The songs are longer, roomier, with venturesome flourishes: guitar riffs, vocal effects, a vocoder solo. "Fantasy's" epic sound speaks to West's uneasiness with his stature. He is a mass of contradictions, the illumination of which forms the core of his appeal as an artist. As both star and collaborator, his statements are grandiose, grasping, a hip-hop King Midas who's done with being undone by his detractors. "Fantasy" is Kanye West's self-portrait, in Cubism: complex, petulant, somewhat para- noid, but bursting with ideas and never boring. - Quentin B. Huff 3. Flying Lotus, "Cosmogramma" From progressive free jazz to spaced-out psychedelic soul to surrealist hip-hop, Flying Lotus's "Cosmogramma" clashes together some of the most left-of-center black music of the past half century with otherworldly electronic beats to create a still undefined sound that is uniquely his own. But as forward thinking as "Cosmogramma" is, the LP defies the current iTunes epoch of cherry-picking albums for a few select cuts and ditching the rest of the release. Broken apart, "Cosmogramma" leaves an unfocused impres- sion.Taken together, it coalesces into a dazzling illumination. As demanding as it is rewarding, "Cosmogramma" is a brilliant splattering of ideas that interlock to form its own Afro-futurist universe. At bottom, it is the soothsayer and the thrown-down gauntlet for all other electronic music albums in the upcoming decade.- Eric Allen Been 2.The National, "High Violet" In 2009, Animal Collective found their next- level breakout by buffing and shining their ec- centricities into an expansive yet palatable sheen. The National found a similar new level in 2010, but they went a different route to get there. "High Violet" is dark and disjointed, huge and unset- tling, but it manages to avoid the back-handed "grower" tag. Deep under the troubling guitar tones, the overcast strings and keys and horns, the intricate thunder of the drums, are deeply infectious hooks. The songs hit immediately, but then leech into your skin and stay there. Of course, it helps to have singer Matt Berninger, the closest thing to an American Morrissey we've got. He may play it less arch than Mozz, but he takes similar chances, he's darkly funny, and he risks the melodramatic image to brilliant effect. Voices swallow souls here. Brains are nearly eaten. But as Crooner for the Underground, Berninger deliv- ers it all with a sly yet weary charm. "High Violet" is a tough record for tough times, but it's no shelter from the storm. This isn't a way to put your head down and wait for the looming darkness to pass. On "High Violet," Berninger and company stand up, spines straight, pulling sharp grins into the teeth of that dark, asking with a shrug, "Is that all you got?" - Matt Fiander 1. Janelle Monae, "The ArchAndroid" Janelle Monae's "The ArchAndroid" proves she's the whole package. Fashion? She wears tuxedoes and rocks the sculpted pompadour of a 1950s crooner. Dancing? Her moves must've been inherited from James Brown. Musically? Her diverse sound incorporates soul, funk, rock, new wave, and folk, along with rap, jazz, and classical, yet she wields a singular vision. That's no easy feat considering her album's epic storyline about an android in the year 2719 falling in love with a human and aiming to stop the time-traveling tyranny of a secret society. Vocally? Monae fully inhabits each musical style, from the straight- forward funk of "Tight Rope" to the shimmering effects in the Monae-doing-Prince-doing-Hendrix "Mushrooms & Roses" and the Off the Wall-era Michael Jackson leanings of "Locked Inside." A dynamo, Janelle Monae glides over Debussy's "Clair de Lune" as deftly as she issues the primal screams of a fembot coming alive and experienc- ing self awareness. - Quentin B. Huff.

BUTLER MCCLATCHY NEWSPAPERS Movie fans usually have to wait until the last days of December to find the year's best picture among the late-arriving Oscar contenders. Not in 2010. This movie year peaked early with the June release of "Winter's Bone," the hillbilly noir that continues to hold its own as the best film of 2010. But the holiday season is remarkably strong. Both "The King's Speech" and 'True Grit" give "Winter's Bone" stiff competition, and titles like "The Fighter" and "Black Swan" offer excellent choices, too. A list of the year's Top 10 movies follows. But first let's cast a cinematic eye over the last 12 months, revealing few new trends but plenty of continuing ones: 3-D can make a good movie seem better, but it does nothing for a bad one, as we all learned with "Clash of the Titans." If you can't make money with an animated film in this market, you're a moron. The audience's ap- petite for animation seems bottomless. Among the year's best were "Toy Story 3," "Despicable Me" and "How to Train Your Dragon." Documentaries continue to be the single most satisfying and artful genre out there. This year we had a slew of terrific ones: "The Tillman Story," "Inside Job," "Restrepo," "Waiting for 'Superman,'" "A Film Unfinished," "Last Train Home," "Kings of Pastry," "Countdown to Zero" and, maybe, "Exit Through the Gift Shop" (which may or may not be an actual documentary). Geek movies aren't the cash cow Hollywood had hoped for, as evidenced by the lukewarm box office for films like the comic book-inspired "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" and "Kick-Ass." On the other hand, pouring lots of money into a high-concept f/x-heavy extravaganza can lead to a big payoff, particularly when it's in the hands of a visionary like Christopher Nolan, director of "Inception." More theaters are adding more digital screens with 3-D projection. That's raising the average movie ticket price, which continues to inch up be- cause exhibitors charge a few dollars more for 3-D. Enough of business. Now it's time for fun. Here, in order, are my choices for the year's best films. "Winter's Bone" Pregnant with violent possibilities yet steeped in lyricism, "Winter's Bone" works brilliantly on so many levels that it delivers new revelations with every viewing, and I'm not saying that just because it was shot in our own back yard. Debra Granik's film is many things: a gripping mystery set in the inbred world of the Ozarks drug culture, a near-documentary look at a way of life and a superbly acted character study of a 17-year-old girl who has assumed responsibilities way beyond her years. Expect full-fledged stardom for young leading lady Jennifer Lawrence. It's the best of 2010. (On video.) "The King's Speech" On the eve of World War II, the stammering Duke of York (Colin Firth, surely Oscar-bound) turns to an eccentric speech therapist (Geoffrey Rush) for treatment. Result: a massive battle of wills and an unlikely friendship that will follow these two to their deaths. Great dialogue, sharply etched characters, a palpable sense of time and place: This film will please absolutely everyone. (In theaters.) "True Grit" The Coen brothers remake the John Wayne classic and improve it in every way. Memorable performances come from Jeff Bridges (in the Wayne role of Rooster Cogburn) and Matt Damon, and Hailee Steinfeld makes a wondrous debut as a 14-year-old girl on a mission of vengeance. Fully satisfying as a Western, it's also slyly re- visionist ... and a satisfying elegy to the demise of the frontier. Can't imagine a man, woman or child not enjoying it immensely. (In theaters.) "Toy Story 3" Pixar could have coasted through this second sequel; instead the world of toys is presented as an existential dilemma moving adults to tears. Collecting dust in a toy chest, Woody, Buzz and the rest of the gang face an uncertain future. Without a child to love it, does a toy truly exist? Heck, I'm getting misty just writing about it (On video.) "The Social Network" Not much soul here, but plenty of fierce intelligence. David Fincher's dark saga about the creation of Facebook perfectly nails the nexus of Ivy League egos and Internet boom while offering an indelible portrait of out-of-control brilliance. This tale came along at just the right time in our cultural history. With terrific, biting dialogue by Aaron Sorkin, "Network" works as a character study of Facebook multibillionaire Mark Zucker- berg (likely Oscar contender Jesse Eisenberg), as a "Rashomon"-style look at conflicting perspec- tives and as a portrait of our times. If it's never warm and fuzzy - is there a likable character in the whole picture? - it's always com- pelling. (In some theaters. On video Jan. 11.) "The Ghost Writer" Roman Polanski's filmmaking skills infuse every minute of this political thriller. Ewan McGregor is hired to ghost write the memoir of a recent British prime minister (Pierce Brosnan at his career best). The previous writer died mysteriously, and soon our scribe starts un- covering dark secrets that put his own life at risk. Executed with the panache of Hitchcock in his prime, "Ghost Writer" is smart and atmospheric. No showing off here, just the quiet competence of a man who knows how to be scary, subversive and satiric all at once. Say what you will about the controversial director, he offers yet more proof that great art isn't always made by great human beings. (On video.) "The Tillman Story" In a year of great documentaries, "The Tillman Story" has stuck with me like no other. Pat Tillman gave up a pro football career to become an Army Ranger; he died in Afghanistan in 2004, hailed as a hero for charging up a hill in a hailstorm of Taliban fire. Amir Bar-Lev's film follows the efforts of his extraordinary family to get at the truth about Till- man's death and a Pentagon coverup. There's lots of outrage here. But "The Tillman Story" is also deeply sad, making Pat Tillman a real person, not a remote figure in the headlines. When it's over you won't know whether to weep or throw something. (On video Feb. 1.) "Cairo Time" It's a love story in which the participants never get beyond a chaste peck on the cheek. Yet thanks to the superb Patricia Clarkson, the deft direction of Ruba Nadda and evocative images of Egypt's capital, this was the year's most satisfying romance. Awaiting the arrival in Cairo of her aid-worker husband, an American wife hangs out with his former co-worker, a Muslim cafe owner (Alexander Siddig).We see their slowly growing attraction, but neither will address it - and in that tension "Cairo Time" finds a beautiful tenderness. It's "Brief Encounter" for the new millennium.(On video.) Let's Go! e December 29, 2010-January 4, 2011 E/N/C/V Watched a new movie lately?

GO Hendrick's BY BARBARA BEAN-MELLINGER SUN CORRESPONDENT Hendrick's in Punta Gorda is something of a chameleon among restaurants. A wholesome deli by day, it morphs into a self-described "chill-out lounge" at night. So any time of day you can get freshly made, traditional and unusual fare in a light, relaxing, casual atmosphere. The restaurant's slogan is "real honest food," meaning everything is freshly prepared, never processed. "We believe one major reason for the obesity in this country is that we eat so much processed food," explains Colm Hendrick, who co-owns the restaurant with his wife, Eileen. "We don't have any deli meat - we roast all our meats and slice them fresh. We make all our soups from scratch. And we have our own, in-house baker." That's why they originally named the restaurant Hendrick's Food Vault - because you put special items in a vault for safekeeping. Due to the public's confusion over the name, though, the couple decided to change it to "Hen- drick's Deli/Chill-Out Lounge," or just "H's" for short. They open at 6:30 a.m. for breakfast - offering scones, muffins, omelets, egg sandwiches, and authentic New York bagels brought it regularly. Lunch and dinner until 7 p.m. includes sand- wiches made to order, paninis, wraps, homemade soups and salads, chili, quesadillas and Handi- Pies - semi-circle pastries enclosing such fillings as spinach and feta, steak and kidney, chicken and mushroom, and curry chicken. All day long, the delectable case of Nancy Cuffaro's homemade baked goods beckons with pie slices, eclairs, cookies and so much more it's hard to choose just one. Then, Wednesday through Saturday evenings from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., they pull down screens, dim the lights, add music and black and white films to turn the deli into the lounge. Light fare during lounge hours include Dippers Delight platters with combinations of black beans, hummus, spinach & feta, guacamole, a variety of salsas and pita chips; Pickers Platters of Spanish Tapas, Cheeses and meats, or Mixed Crustini. Handi-Pies are still available, too, or choose a signature burger of beef, portabella mushroom, or "Dork"- a combination of duck and pork. And of course, there's still a selection of home- made specialty desserts - as well as a full line of domestic and imported beers and wines. Hendrick's caters, too. And if you're stuck in- side, you can place your order online at hendrick- stogo.com and even have it delivered. Stop in day or night - and preferably both - in the Cross Trails Center, located on U.S. 41 and Cross Street in Punta Gorda. You can also reach them at 941-639-9700 (or by fax, 941-237-4917).

December 29, 2010-January 4, 2011 E/N/C/V A Section ofat the Sun The fad th BY JEFF HERRING AND MARITZA PARRA MCCLATIHA - TRIBUNE ememberback in the early days of the Internet (which, our favorite reader, seems I a strange thing to say) when so many people said all this online stuff was just a fad? Remember when IBM said that it could not see a use for more than a few desktop computers? Oops. One of my first online mentors, Tom Antion, a multi-millionaire thanks to the Internet, tells a great story about this. A woman came to one of his workshops and said she thought the Internet was just a fad.The next year when she came again, after having some success, and seeing Tom's massive success online, the same woman said "The Internet is really not just a fad is it?" HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF And now we have this thing called "social media marketing." Already it has changed the landscape of the Internet forever. And once again people are saying it is just a fad. These people are wrong. Though I do understand their skepticism. The first time a friend and colleague told me about Twitter, because I trust this person, I checked it out and opened an account. And then my first thought was 'Who cares what I had for lunch today?" Then I saw the enormous potential of Twitter What's new on the net? rki[ao,,! at changed the Internet forever for building traffic and leads, for customer service, customers in your niche or area of expertise, person in that area. Share small pieces of your reputation management for small businesses and Social media marketing is a quick and relatively expertise or your product benefits there and invite for building a brand. One of our students enjoyed a 1,204-percent increase in business for her jewelry business from one holiday season to the next, using only Twitter to achieve this ROI. It cost her $0 to advertise her jewelry on Twitter since opening and operating an account is free. This stuff works. So let's look at some broad real life numbers here. There is a website called Alexa.com that ranks other websites based on the amount of traffic, or visitors, to that website. Number one is the best place to be, and that position is held by Google. Now check out these numbers: Facebook is the No. 2 website, second only to Google, and Google is scared. YouTube is the No. 3 website in the world. Twitter is the No. 10 website in the world. So three of the top 10 most visited websites in the world are social media sites. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR BUSINESSES, CONSUMERS When we work with small businesses, both online and offline, to create their social media marketing campaigns, one of the things we focus on is visibility. The good news is that as a small business you do not have to be found all over the Internet.You just want to be found by potential inexpensive way to do just that, and it puts you directly in contact with consumers. For instance, when potential clients or custom- ers see you on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube for example, it communicates that you are the "go-to" people interested in more to your website. For consumers, you often get direct access to a company's creator, owner, seller or a rep that can quickly and directly answer your questions and respond to your concerns.
