A special city commission meeting is sched- uled at 5 p.m. today to discuss the order. Fernandina Beach Commission- er John Crow objected to the stop- work order and asked Mayor Greg Roland to call the special hearing. Crow said he will seek to reverse Sunday Loston Harris concert Monday PAGE 1B American Profile MAGAZINE the order and allow construction to proceed. "We issued a (building) permit in good faith to a man trying to make a living," Crow said. "It met all the codes, all the height and set- back and all that."

He turns a giant hori- zontal wheel to the next screen, and squeegees orange pigment onto the shirt. This is a four- color design, plus black, And each screen adds a different color to the shirt. Brown captured the com- mission for the 2005 Shrimp Festival T-shirt design this year, and will produce the shirts that -will be' sold. His one-man cot- tage industry designs and sup- plies shirts to companies locally and as far away as Manhattan, such as pizza chains, sporting events, retail stores, fund-rais- ers, etc. His output is amazing, yet he uses a traditional hands-on tech- nique rather than an automated system. "There is a great differ- ence in quality when the artist has full control of the process," says Brown. "I am involved in it all, from the initial design to the finished product. "The darkroom is the heart of the business, here I transfer my designs to the screens." Brown has been designing shirts for more than 20 years.

All kinds of oppor- W tunists do just this, and right now there is a need to find ways to get around skyrocketing gaso- line prices. As a result, a great many gas-saving products have hit the market ranging from those that do offer a very mini- mal gasoline savings to the com- pletely worthless. There are fuel line devices, mixture enhancers, internal engine modifications, accessory drive modifiers (to reduce power to specific accessories), driving habit modifiers and others. The Federal Trade Commission has tested a very large number of such products and, even for the few that have been found to work, the savings have been small. Be skeptical of the following kinds of advertising claims: b '-This gas-saving product = improves z Z fuel econo- S:1 my by 20 2 -" percent" , Not accord- ing to the FTC, which has not found any product that signifi- cantly improves gas mileage - and they have tried to examine at least one product in each differ- ent category of gas-saving prod- ucts. "After installing our product on my car, I got an extra four miles per gallon." Again, I warn, you can't trust testimonials in advertisements. Besides, few consumers have the ability or the equipment to test for precise changes in gas mileage after installing a gas-saving product. Many variables affect fuel con- sumption, including weather con- ditions, traffic, etc. "This gas-saving device is approved by the Federal Government."

NEWS LEADER t7 -dollb. I gas-saving products for cars. The most that can be legitimately claimed in advertising is that the EPA has reached certain conclu- sions about possible gas savings by testing the product or by eval- uating the manufacturer's own test data. If you are still interest- ed in the product, ask for a copy of the EPA report. The current gasoline prices are a big budget item for those who must drive long distances, or very frequently. But it is better to try to save in other ways, rather than waste more money on devices that aren't going to help very much, if at all. Here are some reminders: Remember that the faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour, rather than 55, increas- es'fuel consumption by 20 per- cent. At 75 mph, rather than 65, fuel consumption increases another 25 percent Use cruise control. Use overdrive gears during highway driving. Anticipate driving situa- tions, such as removing your foot from the gas pedal well ahead of red lights and stop signs, coast- ing to a stop. Go easy on the gas pedal and brakes, avoiding "jack rabbit" starts. Avoid unnecessary idling, and turn off the engine if your wait is going to be more than a very few minutes. Remove excess weight from the trunk. An extra 100 pounds reduces a typical car's fuel economy by one to two per- cent. Plan ahead, combining errands into one trip whenever possible, instead of several short ones from a cold start. Maintain your car, keeping the engine tuned, tires properly inflated and aligned. Change oil as recommended by the car's manufacturer and check and replace air filters regularly. (Clogged filters can cause up to a 10 percent increase in fuel con- sumption.)

Shawn Barnes, 19, 2678 Benz Place, Fernandina Beach, was admitted to the hospital earlier this week. Jeanie Barnes, Shawn's mother, said Thursday doctors have told her her son suffered from a blood clot on his brain. "(The doctors) can't say how or why it happened," Barnes said. Barnes spoke to her son Wednesday evening, and he told her he been having headaches for a few days prior to the incident. HOUSES Continued from 1A the building department's inter- pretation of city codes regarding height and setbacks from neigh- boring properties. Some members of the city's Planning Advisory Board complained to the city man- ager, mayor and other commis- sioners then that the houses were too tall or too wide. That led to what Crow called "a public spec- tacle" that has become a central issue in the campaign for city com- mission seats leading up to the April 12 election. The stop-work order was issued by city Building Official John Santoloci, according to City Manager Bob Mearns. The home- builder, Art Sanchez, objected to the order, Mearns said, and asked for reconsideration. - Santoloci could not be reached for comment, but city Planning Supervisor Lupita McClenning said in a memo to him, "It is the Planning Department and the Building Department's official rec- ommendation to place a stop-work order and recommend to the home owner that he seek either a vari- ance from the Board of Adjustment or an interpretation from the Construction Board of Adjustment and Appeals." The city reversed course, according to a press release issued at 4:59 p.m. Thursday, "as a result of numerous inquiries being made related to the houses that are cur- rently under construction at 2252, 2262 and 2272 South Fletcher." . P.O. Box 222 277-1 225 Barnes According to Jeanie Barnes, the incident happened at lunchtime on Tuesday. "He said he'd taken some Tylenol ... he bent over to get a plate and just [collapsed]," she said. Nassau County Sheriff Tommy Seagraves said Thursday he could not comment on what caused Barnes' hospitalization because he had not yet seen an official report. "We're still investigating (this incident) today," Seagraves "Staff reviewed past documents, building permits and minutes in an effort to understand the proper interpretation and determined that two conflicting interpretations of the ordinance exist. After review of the building plans, it was deter- mined to be in the city's best inter- - est to issue a stop-work order," the press release said. Roland has urged an external review be conducted by an archi- tectural or engineering consultant to study the conflict in interpreta- tion of city code. He made that sug- gestion March 15, and the com- mission is scheduled to act on it at its regular Tuesday meeting. Roland said Thursday he is con- cerned about "why it took so long for city staff to figure out it was wrong, if it was." He agreed to Crow's request for a meeting although he doesn't necessarily share Crow's objectives, Roland said. As for whether the houses meet code, he said, "I think the height said. "We're looking into every- thing." Barnes said because her son is not a minor, she was not notified by jail authorities of the incident. She learned about his hospitalization from friends who had spoken with other inmates at the jail. Barnes said doctors had not yet determined her son's prognosis or an anticipated release date from the hospital. She said he is scared, but he told her he's OK. "He's such a loving child, and he doesn't want to worry me," she said, "... but my mind has been on Shawn all the time. I'm very wor- ried." Shawn Barnes was arrested on might be OK but the side-yard set- backs may be incorrect, from a layman's perspective." Roland is seeking re-election to his commission seat. He is being challenged by former mayor Joe Gerrity, who has accused the city of failing to enforce its codes prop- erly and has pointed to an e-mail from a planning board member to the mayor and city manager on Feb. 7 questioning the legality of the South Fletcher construction. Crow suggested the stop-work order is a consequence of the polit- ical season. "I'm disappointed that it's been turned into a political foot- ball or hot potato," he said. He noted that the commission was notified by the city manager nearly two years ago, when Gerrity was on the commission, that there were problems with ordinances regulating the height of houses along the beachfront.

He was due to be released from custody in July of this year, accord- ing to Seagraves, but Jeanie Barnes is hoping he will be released earli- er into her care. "From what I understand, this is a life-threatening, very dangerous situation," she said. "I think he should be cared for by his father and me, not in jail, since he didn't have that much time left in jail any- way."

The development representa- tives all pressed for amended codes to allow taller, wider homes on the beach, but the planning board members resisted.. The Planning Advisory Board dis- cussed but did not act on the pro- posed changes, and the codes have notbeen altered. The city has been undergoing a review of its Land Development Codes for the past six months and new proposals are expected to come before the commission later this spring to address such issues as height and setback require- ments. mparnell@jbnewsleader.com hRIDGEVIEW EN E 1 NURSERY & GARDEN CENTER aZ7/i ha.dsrzea C4ocas Spring Clearance Sale Selected Items 10% 40% OFF \ 4245 State Road 200 (A1A) Femandina Beach, FL 32034 Over the Shave Bridge On The West Bound Side Before Hwy 107 904/261-3410 : SHRIMP Continued from 1A versions keep getting better and better."

APRIL 1, 2005 NEWS News-Leader FASHION Continued from A Fantasy will present, "Executive Men of God," a free public event honoring pastors, preachers, trustees, deacons and fathers. The affair is one example of the organization's growing giving ministry. Fashion Fantasy got its start producing fashion shows, often as fundraisers, for local clubs. Noble, who has used her fashion gifts in wedding coordination, commercial interior design and party production, also conducts charm classes for young girls. "We really wanted to touch the youth," said Noble, who serves as Fashion Fantasy's executive pro- ducer. And the group seized every opportunity to reach the youth by casting them in fashion shows at schools, churches, even poolside. Then Noble's faith began to lead her in a different direction. As she developed a closer rela- tionship with God, "We started branching out" beyond fashion, Noble said. "After I got saved, he said, 'I want you to take a differ- ent route.'" For the past several years, the organization has followed the route of "giving to those in need" by providing families with holi- day gift'baskets and sponsoring community dinners where full- course meals are served. Noble, her assistant coordi- nator, her secretary and her staff, txecutlve Men of God' Fashion Fantasy will present "Executive Men of God." a free public event honoring 25 of the com- Smunity's pastors, preach- ers, trustees, deacons and fathers.

But Fashion Fantasy has suc- ceeded in part because of assis- tance from local merchants who have supported Noble in her efforts to develop the organiza- tion. Larry Miller, owner of Island Flower and Garden, met Noble about four years ago. He supplies the group with "whatever they need," he said. "She's a good person. She's always helping the community," Miller said about Noble. "They need people to support them so that's why I do it." Bell Betsch Delaney Kavanaugh NAACP honors 6 with 'freedom awards' GLENDA S. JENKINS News-Leader The Nassau County branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) honored six local citi- zens Saturday in conjunction with its annual Freedom Fund Awards Banquet. Branch vice president Verna Bell, environmentalist MaVynee Betsch, James Delaney, Margie Johnson, preservationist Celeste Kavanaugh and the Elks Oceanfront Lodge #1410 received awards for their contributions to the NAACP's mission. Mary A Pearson, NAACP area director, and Adora Obi Nweze, president of the Florida State Conference of Branches, received plaques for their outstanding lead- ership, representing the organiza- tion at the state and national level. The awards banquet, centered around the theme "The Time is Now," highlighted the branch's accomplishments and presented the NAACP's national and state civil rights agenda. The event also benefits the branch's future proj- ects and programs. Nationally the organization is preparing to guard the Voting Rights Act. Branch President Patricia Thompson said the organ- ization works to educate local vot- ers. "We must encourage our (citi- zens) to register and vote," she said. "After we encourage them to register and vote, educate them on the candidates and on the issues. What do the candidates have to offer to us? That is what we need to know," said Thompson, who served as Fernandina Beach's first black female city commissioner. "President Thompson is doing a great job here in Nassau County," Nweze said. "She's addressing many of the issues as she gets them from the state ... I'm just very proud of her leadership and what is happening here with the Nassau County branch." The Nassau County branch has conducted door-to-door canvass- ing campaigns to encourage voters to go to the polls, Thompson said. "We cannot endorse candidates, but we can endorse the issues. We can enforce whatever is beneficial to us," Thompson said. "We want to ask (candidates), 'What do you have to offer us?'" she said. "What can you do to maintain our quality of life in the city?" Thompson said. "We don't want to see you when you're just cam- paigning." 'We still need the NAACP more than ever before," she said, adding that disenfranchisement and racism still exist. 'We don't need the NAACP, if we were treated equal," she said. "Our job is to inform, advocate and agitate. If you don't accept that, we've done our part." LANDFILL Continued from 1A ty employees' jobs will be lost. "This is the first evolution. This not the end-all," Mahaney said, explaining that the budget will be cut further in the near future. The immediate changes stem from a $2 million revenue loss, but will only save about $100,000 in this fiscal year. Nassau County Commissioners voted to cut the jobs and hours of operation during a meeting March 16. The revenue loss came when Advanced Services took its busi- ness elsewhere to theTrail Ridge Landfill in Jacksonville, where the company was able to save $2 a ton. Mahaney added that Clay County most likely will not renew its contract with Nassau County when it expires next year in September. Currently, Nassau County would charge Clay County a $22.71 per ton rate- $3.71 more than the $19 per ton fee offered by other counties competing for its 1 1 . business. If Clay County does o renew, it will mean a c landfill's annual budget o imately $2.8 million. Mahaney said the c exploring whether the la be expanded to keep additional years.

Bush's expansion of the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT). "The governor gets to expand the FCAT... One test that deter- mines a child's promotion, gradu- ation, life." she said. "How in the world would you let a state get away with testing children with one test and you won't let a doctor run one test on you?" The NAACP opposes the gov- ernor's campaign to repeal Florida's class size amendment, Nweze said. And the organization encour- ages its branches to hold school districts accountable for educa- tional disparities between minori- ty and white students, she said, cit- ing a recent study of several Florida schools that documented higher rates of suspension and expulsion for students of color. The schools also showed fewer minority students in academic classes and higher numbers of them in exceptional student or special education classes, she said. "Something is wrong when all children don't have equity in our state and it comes back to our school districts," Nweze said. "It's important enough tocall.a session for your school district people to be educated on what is really going on. in the school system and what is really happening with our chil- dren." Although its stance on behalf of "those who have not" is "never a popular position," the NAACP "has stood up for the right," Nweze said. "But it's our position. It is not for you to agree with, but it is simply for you to think about and under- stand the backdrop under which we say these things."

"Florida was a place where black folk didn't stand a chance," she said. No one could fight freely for social justice "and live to tell it." Florida NAACP executive direc- tor Harry T. Moore and his wife Harriette V. Moore stand as the most poignant example of the state's racist past that reverberates today, Nweze said. The Moores, who were teach- ers, died after a bomb exploded beneath the bedroom of their Mims home on their wedding anniversary, Christmas night 1951. Although the FBI launched an extensive investigation, no one went to trial for the couple's mur- der.

"None of us should rest until those murderers have been caught." Today, the Florida NAACP's membership stands at about the same number as when Moore served in office and the fee to join was $1. "People were afraid then to join and they're still scared," Nweze said. "Submit your time left on this earth to making this community a better place for all," she said.

Tuesday night Gail Easley, a planning consultant, told commis- sioners that rules outlined in the city's current Land Development Code and the comprehensive plan for the city's future are incompatible and must be reconciled. The code defines zoning dis- tricts, details overlay districts and rules and regulations for develop- ment within Fernandina Beach. The comprehensive plan is the city's master plan for development Easley, of Gail Easley Co., based in Crystal River, was contracted by the commissioners to draft a pro- posed revision of the city's land development code in early September, and has been explaining its various aspects to the city com- missioners, the Planning Advisory Board and public through work- shops and meetings. "It has been a very smooth oper- ation so far, with everyone having the opportunity to contribute their ideas," said City Manager Bob Mearns. Commissioners may approve a new Land Development Code in late May. "It really does strengthen the final product to have so many peo- ple paying attention to it and point- ing out things that we might need to talk about further," Easley said. The need for a revamping of the city's current development code comes with the progress of time. The current Land Development Code was last updated more than five years ago. "All we're trying to do is write down the rules," Easley said. 'Twenty years ago itwas really easy. We could all sit around and review things together because there was- n't much going on. Now we've got state laws, federal laws, compre- hensive plan requirements and a lot of lawsuits. And now we need to be more clear about those things." As the city grows, compatibility of new development with existing development becomes an issue. The proposed code considers the relationship of a proposed devel- opment with its surrounding neigh- borhood. "Your code needs to give you some plan, some rationale and pro- cedure to evaluate compatibility and say yes or no based on compatibil- ity,'" Easley told the commission- ers. "Thafs what is missing in a lot of codes." One proposal in the draft Land Development Code is to consoli- date the Board of Adjustment with the Planning Advisory Board. Currently each board makes sepa- rate decisions, with the Board of Adjustment looking at variances from code in building plans and the planning board taking a broader view. "If you've got development issues being decided by the same board, I think there'll be better deci- sions ultimately," Easley said, adding she has seen the consolida- tion benefit a number of communi- ties with which she has worked. "They each deal with a piece of the total development picture with- out seeing the rest of it," Easley said. "By consolidating they'd have a complete view of the develop they'd have to approve." The proposed consolidation will be discussed further before a deci- sion is made. "I want to make sure how it works for us first," said Mayor Greg Roland. He noted it will streamline the process for the builder, but wants to assure ade- quate protection of community interests. A final draft of the code could be ready as early as the end of May. "Once we get into the official process we will have at least three public meetings on it," Roland said. "Once we get to that point it should be a pretty good product." The Planning Advisory Board will have a public hearing to receive input, then give the comments to the commission for review. A first reading in ordinance form will be held to adopt it, then a second pub- lic hearing will be held within 30 days. Easley recommended the com- missioners utilize a delayed adop- tion process. For example, if the new Land Development Code were approved on June 1, having it go in effect a month or so later to give adequate time for staff training and public awareness of the new code. A special meeting will be set in early May to discuss and possibly make decisions on zoning districts. A copy of the draft code can be found under community develop- ment -at http://www.fernandin- abeachflorida.org. Audit cites school board shortcomings SIAN PERRY News-Leader An annual audit of the Nassau County School Board outlined nine shortcomings, including a failure to follow proper procedures for pre- qualifying contractors for capital projects. Otherwise, the school district "generally complied with significant provisions of laws, administrative rules, regulations, contracts and grant agreements," the state auditor general reported. The audit was for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2004. The main complaint regarding the contractors was the board's fail- ure to hold public hearings on its intent to prequalify bidders for con- struction projects. Schools Superintendent John Ruis said the list of contractors will nowgo to We bbird for appro al, sorftthig p'efotid*lye1ftr .p6d-' trict staff, and that the bodiwIfa developed written procedures for prequalification. Two findings that echoed the previous year's audit included a fail- ure to properly account for food service revenues and the need for enhanced control over transporta- tion inventories. Assets and liabilities The Nassau County School District had total net assets of $109.5 million as of June 2004, compared to $103.3 million the previous year, according to the Florida Auditor General. Total liabilities were $14.1 million, compared to $12.4 mil- lion the previous year. The food service department used actual bank deposits as the basis for recording its revenues rather than cafeteria sales, "effec- tively bypassing the system's con- trols" and leaving room for fraud or error, the audit stated. Similarly, it found the trans- portation department at risk for fraud because there was no sepa- ration of custody and record keep- ing responsibilities. In his response, Ruis said the district has developed a system to recbfiidl' transpb station purchases the transportation department, sep- arating the functions of recording and control over inventory. In the food service department, Ruis said software changes should help data flow better from schools to the district level and that staff was added to aid the review process, Spanky's Seafood Grill & Bar Wednesday, April 6 5-7pm GA BULLDOG TAILGATE & SOCIAL CLUB All UGA Fans, Friends & Alumni Welcome!

In its other findings the audit said the district could enhance its internal control system by devel- oping more comprehensive proce- dures manuals for its financial oper- ations, something Ruis said is an ongoing project in the finance office. The auditor also found that annual facility inspection reports were not submitted to the board for approval, increasing the risk of defi- ciencies not being properly addressed: Ruis said that was a mis- under brought before the board for their review and approval." Other findings concerned the district's lack of oversight of its Qualified Zone Academy Bonds, in one case failing to properly docu- ment which investment banking firm it used or the basis for a 5 per- cent fee, totaling $71,429. However, Ruis said the firm "was the leading authority in the nation" dealing with the issuance of the bonds and that by the time the district learned it was eligible to participate in the bonding program, "time was of the essence." He added, "The place- ment agent provided valuable guid- ance in achieving the award of these funds for the district and was well worth the fee the company was paid." Criticisms about compliance with different federal and state pro- grams, such as the free and reduced lunch initiative, were due to chang- ing demographics, said Ruis. There was a "reasonable expectation" the schools for which the district sought funding would be eligible based on existing information, he said. Findings of discrepancies between the district's monthly reimbursement claims .and food service reports of.the number rof breakfasts and lunchesserved was blamed on implementing new soft- ware, which Ruis said is being addressed.

Try your local library... n an age where speed, productivity, and imme- diacy reign, it takes someone like Haiold Bloom, author of Where Shall Wisdom Be Found, to ask the kind of question that invites us to take a moment from our busy lives to pon- der what is most profound and lasting about life. Could it be that Homer, Cervantes, Hemingway and even St. Exupery are still relevant today? Even if it's been decades since you cracked open one of the classics, you may have learned a lesson in a story that you remember now and . again and recognized that it is - timeless in its value. Bloom is Sterling Professor of Humanities at Yale University and Berg Professor of English at New York University. In Where Shall Wisdom Be Found, he takes readers from the Bible to 20th century writing, searching for ways literature informs and enriches our lives. So where shall wisdom be found? At the library. April marks National Library Month, a time we can be grateful for our libraries, the freedom to read and the freedom to learn. It's a place we create and maintain with our tax dollars to hold our collective knowledge as a community and as a society. It is open to all for learning, searching, growing and understanding. It's the one public service that goes beyond our immediate needs (roads, utilities, safe- ty) to support high level goals such as an educated, enriched public. Travel to a third-world country and you may notice that there are few public libraries, some- times none at all. Even bookstores may be hard to find or not well stocked. It can feel like quite a privi- lege to know that we can pick up a book for free, escape to another era, travel to another country, satisfy our curiosity, laugh out loud, or have a story touch our hearts. The opportunities number in the thousands and they are available in the collection of books, audiotapes, CD and DVDs at the library. Two other recent books have gained widespread attention ahd are worth reading for National I library Month. The Librarian of T Basra by Jeanette Winter is the true story of how Alia Muhammad Baker, a librarian in the Iraqi city of Basra, found a way to protect her community's priceless collection of books. Written in language simple enough for young children to under- stand, the story is rich with mes- sages: it is important to preserve knowledge; and.literature has the abili- ty to connect us. On the bestseller lists for months is Reading Lolita in Tehran, a memoir of Azar Nafisi, an inspired teacher who secretly gath- ered seven of her most committed female students to read forbidden Western classics. They risked removing their veils and immersed themselves in the world of Nabokov, Jane Austen, E Scott Fitzgerald and Henry James amidst the tyranny in Iran. Reading groups have savored this book and it has prompted much discussion about the value of reading for a healthy and free society. Whether you take an extra trip to the library in April, sign up for your library card, join the Friends of the Library, or simply take time to read, National Library Month is an occasion worth celebrating.

It's the genes, or the waffles Michael Province, a professor at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, has received a five-year, $4 million grant to find out why some people live long, healthy lives and oth- ers don't. Maybe he'll get down to Georgia and interview some of my wife's folks. Her Uncle Leonard is the baby. He's 92. Likes to eat in a Japanese restaurant and Makes a great caramel cake. S!,.,.o Her daddy, Henry, is 94. He was a poultryman who ate eggs every morning for Lord S .. knows how many years. Bacon too, usually. He knows : nothing about medicine for ^!, high cholesterol. Phil Aunt Mable is 97, but H udwon't admit it. You ask her Hudgins ~ age, an A give yo ad'il- '" -' ishlkPm at says 'Take andr1wt FROM THE guess, Buster." Aunt Mable HOME isn't a big eater, but she eats whatever she wants. And she OFFICE takes her time doing it. She probably could be in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's slowest eater. I got frostbite in a Huddle House one summer night while Mable ate a waffle. Uncle Paul will be 100 in June. His favorite restaurant is the Waffle House, but not just because of the.food. He's always been fond of the waitresses there. Paul taught my wife how to cook a good beef roast. He doesn't get out much now. After Professor Province interviews my wife's kin in Georgia, he might drive over to Gadsden, Ala., and interview my aunt, Gertie Hudgins Gunter. She turned 97 on March 18. Seven of the Hudgins clan and the husband of one of them rode over in a van to wish her a happy birthday. Gertie gets her nourishment from a feeding tube, but only because she has a problem with diges- tion. She does eat her brother Alton's birthday cake, though. So, Professor Province, we need to find out the common denominator with these five people. Maybe it's healthy food. No, that's not it. Three of the five could eat Burger King's new Enormbus Omelet Sandwich every day all 730 calories of it - and never need a Trims. Maybe it's physical activity. Couldn't be. No one can remember the last public job Uncle Paul had. The family explanation is, he cooked while his wife worked. Vague memory suggests he once painted houses for a living. So why do some people live so long, professor? That's what he Wants to find out by gathering genetic and health information from more than 3,000 long-lived volunteers and their descendants. None of our folks has been contacted. "The trick," Professor Province said, "is not just to live long, but to live disease free. We want to find out how people do it." And then he said something important '"There is preliminary evidence from many sources that genes play a significant role, especially for the old- est of the old, those who live past 100." I bet that's it, professor. Must be the genes. Of course, for the men, attention from good Waffle House waitresses can add a few years, too.

Such moments may be fleeting before confusion and mystery regain their grip on our faculties, but we need to take advan- tage of them whenever they occur, no matter how brief they may be. Such a moment has happened recently in Fernandina Beach, and the impetus that threw "the switch" was the recognition that the three houses under construction in the 2200 block of South Fletcher "just don't look right." As most of you will recall, construction of the first house started a couple of months ago and quickly caught the attention of passersby, as well as this newspaper, which featured a front-page article (Feb. 23) entitled, 'Tall, close-new style for beach homes?" In retrospect, the paper could have omitted the ques- tion mark since it appears that is exactly the direc- tion the city is headed. "Houses are larger today than they built years ago, and (the house on South Fletcher) does look out of scale," City Manager Robert Mearnssaid at the time, but he hastened to add that he believed the house complied with city codes. Of course, not everyone shared that belief. Local architect John Cotner, who has worked with building officials for over 25 years, believed the first house was either too tall or too close to its neighbor on the south side. Cotner said there shouldn't be an eco- nomic benefit for not going by the rules. He summa- rized his thoughts by saying, "What does bother me is when I go by the book and tell my clients they can't do this, and they see it being done (other places). There's no way you can construe that (house) to meet the requirements." And Cotner ought to know. In 2004 he was a member of a building height subcommittee that had recommended the city should modify its codes in order to allow taller homes with smaller setbacks. (Think about it: Even an architect that favors taller and wider homes along the beach recognizes the new houses are out of compli- ance.) Other members on that subcommittee included Mark Bennett, Bob Howat, Ron Flick l -2. and Art Sanchez. With Bennett |1 and Howat voicing strong oppo- sition against weakening the code, the Planning Advisory Board sent its recommenda- tions to the city commission without taking a formal vote on Mike Boyle it. If left unchanged, the current setback restrictions for a 35-foot .- .. tall house on the beach would WAIT A require 10 feet on each side, MINUTE leaving only 30 feet upon which to build if you have a 50-foot lot like the ones in question on South Fletcher. To date, those proposed changes to relax the restrictions.have never been adopted by the city commission. If you are wondering how there could be so many examples of questionable decisions relating to build- ing codes within the city, you need to understand the revolving-door environment that permeated the plan- ningand building departments over the last few years. To begin with, City Manager Robert Mearns eliminated the position of community development director when the last one, Bob Jarzen, left after three years due to "philosophical differences" with Mearns. That position used to supervise both the planning and building departments, but after Jarzen's departure the heads of those two depart- ments now report directly to Mearns. Anne Catinna became the planning director in 2003, but she was demoted by Mearns in 2004. She was temporarily replaced by Jennifer Gooding, city grants writer and airport manager. The current plan- ning director, Lupita McClenning, replaced Gooding within weeks in 2004. (Try to keep up.) In August, 2003, two more city planners lost their jobs after they clashed with developer Dan McCranie Jr. over code requirements related to his 195-home Ocean Breeze project between Bailey and Simmons Roads in the middle of Amelia Island. One of them had only been on the job for five months, having replaced another planner, Danielle Glouner, who had resigned in March of the same year. Before her departure planner Mary Helen Duke sent an e- mail to planning board members advising them, "It is evident to me that sporadic, limited enforcement of city codes has been the rule of thumb in the past. I encourage each of you to do what you can to ensure the laws of the city related to planning and develop- ment as outlined in the Land Development Code be enforced." (What a great idea!) When asked about the rapid turnover of city staff in key planning positions in 2004, Mearns said such turnover is not an indication of loss of quality in the planning office, and added, "We're getting better." In addressing the loss of two planners at the same time, he said, "Some people can deal with the public, and some people can't. Some people fit, and some people don't fit." In the current situation it appears that city Building Official John Santoloci and code enforce- ment officer Jack Ouellette are the kind of city employees that "fit," since they reported the new houses are in compliance with city code restrictions (it's all a matter of "interpretation"). The builder of those homes (and others on the island) is Art Sanchez, who was on the city's build- ing height subcommittee that wanted to loosen restrictions on setbacks for substandard 50-foot lots back in 2004. Perhaps it is time for someone to remind local builders that the plan to filet the existing building codes was never approved, and since the city manag- er has taken on the role of the community develop- ment director, he would be my choice to deliver that message.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE Consultants'heaven The present city commission has certainly turned Fernandina Beach into consultants' heaven. Apparently the commission has never met a consult- ant they didn't want to spend tax dollars on. When they don't like one consultant's report no problem; they just spend more taxpayers' money to hire another consultant to study and report on the same issue. No wonder our taxes keep going up! Peggy Krents Fernandina Beach Needless destruction I wholeheartedly agree with the content of ("What about God's creation?,". March 2). I am a homebuilder. It is growth that provides me my livelihood. However, I believe that there is a better way to ensure that the land is used rather than abused. As a lifelong resi- dent of Nassau County, I recall how things were when I was a child. It breaks my'heart to see what has hap- Spned to' the niany acres pof once bed~itifullafid 'all 'be&buse our county wonYt enact'Itricter measures to ensure there will be mature natural growth on every piece of property that is developed. If you take a drive down Barnwell Road, you will see very nice housing communities that have been devel- oped so that we can live in harmony with nature, rather than decimate it. Large, mature trees are a pre- dominant feature as are vegetative buffers. All of this provides the property owner with privacy, the much sought after aesthetics of large trees, as well as some habitat for the wildlife. The brainchild of the bulk of the developments in Nassau County with such character and considera- tion for nature is Mr. Bob Allison. He has tastefully and thoughtfully developed acres of land without ravaging the landscape with heavy equipment. Why can't every developer conform to such standards? Why does there have to be such needless destruction? Natural vege- tation and trees are becoming less and less common- place, and there is no reason why it has to be this way. Our county government needs to take a stand and hold developers accountable for their actions. They should ensure that every parcel of land retains some of its natural beauty. It takes years to replace what takes only seconds to destroy. If developing is allowed to continue as it is, then there will be no natural vegetation remaining. Our community will have lost what has made it so attrac- tive to everyone. Lucy A.

There are two state and county taxes most people overlook, namely motor fuel and communications. The fuel tax is known as a hidden tax. Just try to find out what itis at a gas station! The five that I visited had- n't the slightest idea what the rate was or how to find it. It used to be posted on the pump. Fortunately, our .county finance department provided the following website, www.state.fl.us/Icir. Follow the leader, dataA to Z, index to fuel tax rates. Voila!! Tables showing more than you need for every county in Florida. On page 226 there is a major block Motor Fuel Tax Rates with state imposed and also locally imposed taxes. The Nassau County total of the three groups for state is 21.9 cents per gallon and for the two groups for local Nassau County is 7 cents per gallon or a total of 28.9 cents for both gasoline and diesel. You can estimate how much fuel you bought in 2004 by the miles driven per vehicle divided by your miles per gallon rate. Using actual gas.purchased data yielded a $162, deduction for us. The communication taxes are listed on your month- ly bill. Only use the ones that say state and local tax. Service charges are not deductible. For us, a cell phone and two land lines equates to $89.50 in tax deduction. On your regular 7 percent sales tax, save your receipts (even a McDonald's hamburger is taxed). Add them up once a month. Doing this with actual receipts yielded over $1,700 deduction versus $580 from the tax tables.

Stephen Bickel, minister of music/associate pastor of Yulee Baptist Church, reflects on music: "A few months ago I quoted the minister and creative consultant for Disney World, 'If you are going to take people to Jesus, you must be there first. Music is a lifestyle. Be there first; give it away.' "Psalms 40:16 says, 'May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who love your salvation always say, The Lord Be exalted!' The goal and mission of the music ministry is to exalt the Lord and present him to others. This becomes a musical lifestyle as the Gospel mes- sage is presented through the means of music. The choir invited all to worship with them March 20 as they exalted the Lord through the Easter Cantata, 'Believe.' In this time of worship, you will have experienced congregational singing, choral singing, solos, narration from the choir, narration by video from Biblical characters Pilate, Caiphas, Thomas, John and Mary (Mother of Jesus) and the majestic soundtrack of orchestral accompani- ment. Hearts will be touched and lives changed as you participated in this time of exaltation. "In this fast moving age, set aside a time of day to turn off all the technology that keeps buzzing: phones, computers, pagers, e-mail, television, etc. Use this noise break to sit quietly with thoughts, prayers, hopes and dreams. Listen to and follow the voice of God. And while you are at it, come join the choir as we proclaim the love of God." The Rev. Thomas Keisler Jr. is pastor. Minister of youth is Julie Peterson. The Rev. William (Bill) Heiser, music/youth minister of Blackrock Baptist Church, writes from The Beacon newsletter: "Genesis 12:1 'Now the Lord said to Abram, go forth from your country, and from your relatives, and from you father's house, to the land which I will show you.' And when you read the rest of the account, not only did Abram obey, but the Lord blessed him. "As many of you already know, God has called Donna and me to go unto a new ministry which He is going to show us. Even though we will be here only a few more weeks doesn't mean things are stopping. "The choir is going full speed as we prepare for Easter. We have quite a few new choir members, but there are still a few spots open so come join ._.us-.. _-- .. _.. --. .. .--- -- ..... S"It's hard fto believe that we liace b'.in hI,-re , almost seven years. My family will always treas- ure these years and will keep the Blackrock fami- ly in our prayers. I just ask you all to keep us in your prayers as God opens a new chapter in our lives." Brother Bill, Donna, Lindsey, Amy and Scott and family. May God continue to bless this dedicated fami- ly. Our prayers and good wishes go out to them. (Romans 8:28). The Rev. Frank Camarotti, long- time dedicated pastor, and this church will cer- tainly miss this family. May we all continue to pray for them. The Rev. Neal Thompson, pastor of North Hilliard Baptist Church, reports on their joint revival with Live Oak Baptist, where the Rev. Steve Wolgamott is pastor. "The remainder of our joint revival with Live Oak was marvelous. Brother Mark Canipe is the most evangelistic preacher I have ever listened to. He preached a wonderful message on Moses and the burning bush. It really had the congregation inspired to serve the Lord. I was so inspired that I made a charge to our church about the visions that I see for our church. I gave my congregation a 'vision' that I want for our church. This revival has really 'inspired our two men of God who are going into the ministry: Ricky Hurst and Clint Hoffman. After Easter, we are going to form an Evangelism Committee. This committee will meet and work on the vision for our church. I am looking forward to the joint revival in the fall with Live Oak. Brother Steve Wolgamott is a fabulous preacher and man of God. I know that he and I are on fire for the Lord. "Our BMU and Brotherhood are ready to go out into the lost world also. Our ladies had break- fast on March 19 and went visiting afterwards. They had a marvelous attendance and response from the visitation. Our men will be starting a i pastor, choir Saturday bracelet this week- end. Please be in prayer for these two groups and the S ministry they are doing. "As I close, let us keep v everyone lifted up. We need to keep on keeping on.

A group of Naval Reservists is working hard to push that line even further from our borders. They are nab- bing those materials that catch a free ride home on the wheels of a humvee or that servicemem- hers may inad- vertently pack Brian Nedela for their jour- ney home from the front lines. One of approximately 300 Reservists mobilized to Iraq and Kuwait by the Naval Expedi- tionary Logistics Support Force is Petty Officer 2nd Class Brian Nedela, son of Kay Borum of Fernandina Beach. As members of the newly formed "NAVELSF Forward Group OSCAR," Nedela and his teammates will work either'tt sea or aerial ports of debarkation in Iraq and Kuwait. They will ensure that the gear returning with personnel complieswith U.S. customs regulations, and look for foreign contaminants such as soil, bugs, larva and plants on the military equipment returning to the U.S. Once these %vehicles, tanks and helicopters are cleared to return, they'll be stored in a guarded, sterile lot- until a ship or aircraft takes them home. Nedela began his active duty in December, when he traveled to Norfolk, Va., for mobilization briefings and medical screen- ings. He then reported for cus- toms and agriculture inspection training at the NAVELSF head- quarters in Williamsburg, Va. His training also included chemi- cal, biological and radiological (CBR) defense; unit and defense tactics; humvee maneuvering and control; and combat life sav- ing and first aid.

APRIL 1, 2005/News-Leader RELIGION As clocks spring ahead, remember the new dawn of the resurrection "After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb... The angel said to the women, 'Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was cruci- fied. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.'" (Matthew 28:1, 5-6a) In one of my tender years of ordained ministry I barely escaped the horror of all horrors for a pastor, and that, on Easter Sunday. My wife Lauren and I lived in a home owned by the church, right across the street from the fellowship hall. I wanted to get an early jump on the day, and so rising early I ate breakfast, took a shower and dressed for church. With a good hour-and-a- half to go, I thought I had plenty of time to review my notes and make my way into the nearby sanctuary. As I sat in my office I was sur- S. r prised to hear the sound of car doors being S, opened and shut, as well Sas the sound of neighbors in pleasant conversation. Conrad Curious, I Sharps rose from my desk to look out the win- PULPIT dow only to NOTES see more cars arriving at the church, and my flock slow- ly making their way into the sanc- tuary. I wondered what in the world was going on, until the three dreaded words sprang into my rapidly numbing mind: "Daylight Savings Time." "Lauren, we're late! We forgot to change the clocks!" were the only words I shouted before run- ning out the door. By the middle of the first hymn I was unbeliev- ably impressed to see my wife make her way down the aisle to sit in the nearest open pew. In a matter of seconds, after greeting her pew mates, they all began to snicker uncontrollably. We were busted. I imagine some of you can identify with that sinking feeling, when you discover you're late. If you haven't, then repeat after me: "There but by the grace of God, go I." We read in scripture that the women came to the tomb at dawn. The rising of the sun and the dawn of a new day have always held great spiritual signifi- cance for Christians. As the dis- covery of the risen Christ comes at dawn, so too his resurrection signals the hope of a new day for people of faith. As we read from the prophet Isaiah: "Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your right- eousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will call for help, and he will say: 'Here am I.'" (Isaiah 58:8-9a) Interestingly I saw this demonstrated dramatically in Italy a few weeks ago. As our tour group entered the western door of the Domo (the cathedral in Florence) we looked east to the ever increasing majesty of art and design portraying the glory and redemption of God in Jesus Christ The cathedral was designed in just this manner to look toward the east, symbolically represent- ing the coming dawn of God's new heaven and earth. And so that the people of Florence might never lose track of the importance of this new dawn, the clock on the western wall tells time as no other clock in the world. With its expansive brass hands and numbers on green, white and pink marble this clock informs of the hours passed since the last sunset; also indicating the time to the next sunrise. Indeed, though there may be many hours to go before the darkness of our world gives way to light, Jesus Christ is risen and he is ushering in a new dawn. The sinking reality of life (of time) is that the power of death cannot be denied. But its power is not ultimate! The resurrection of Jesus Christ tells us that though time may not be on our side, the creator of life, is. What great love. The Rev. Conrad C. Sharps is pastor ofFirst Presbyterian Church in Fernandina Beach.

KOVALESKI For the News-Leader With its perfect weather and beau- tiful coastline, Florida has long had more vacation homes than any other region in the country. The second-home market repre- sents a major segment of real estate sales throughout the state, both for buying vacation homes:and future retirement residence":' According to the Nitional Association of Realtors'second-home sales are booming and'Florida is again one of the top destinations. Sales of second homes nationwide have increased by nearly 25 percent since 2001. Reasons to consider buying a vaca- tion home are as varied as the homes themselves. For some, it is simply a lifestyle choice; for others, especially among baby-boomers, purchasing a vacation home creates a family retreat, a place to reconnect and spend time with family. Others interested in buying a vaca- tion home could be looking for a jump- start on their retirement homes, or something to pass along to future gen- erations, and many buyers of second homes are simply looking for a solid real estate investment. Whatever the reason for buying a second home, consider the following before taking the vacation-home plunge: Location. If you're looking to buy, the most important thing to consider is location. Is this a place you and your family would want to visit regularly? Are there enough recreational activi- ties for multiple generations of family? Is it close enough to the beach, lake or river? Can it be used year-round? Sixty-one percent of vacation homes are located in resort or recreation areas, another 20 percent are in rural areas. Consider the distance from your primary residence, and how long it will take to drive there in Friday evening traffic. Most vacation homes are less than 200 miles from the pri- mary residence; 42 percent are in the same state. Take your time: Buying a vaca- tion home is not a snap decision, and it doesn't need to be. Most buyers of second homes are under no pressure to buy, since it's not the primary resi- dence. Most buyers take as much as three years or more to make a deci- sion about buying a second home, and many spend several years renting in the area before deciding to buy. Consult the experts. When pur- chasing a vacation home, it's tempting to forego the usual formalities of the real estate market. In fact, fewer than half the vacation homes purchased last year were bought through a real estate agent or broker; with 38 percent purchased directly from the previous owner. Nearly half of the for-sale-by- owner transactions involved buyers purchasing directly from someone they knew beforehand, such as a friend, family member or acquain- tance. Even if you are dealing with someOne you know, ifs important that your real estate attorney reviews all contracts before you sign them. And, to ensure you find the best home to fit your needs, you're well-served to hire a Realtor to help you with your search. Consider tax implications. The IRS allows a deduction on the interest from a second home. Many homebuy- ers also end up declaring their second home as their permanent residence in order to receive the $25,000 Florida homestead exemption. Residents must be registered to vote, register their car and maintain a Florida driver's license to qualify for the exemption. There is no requirement on how much time the owner has to spend in the home. Shop around. Make sure you've thoroughly shopped the mortgage market, since vacation home loans usually require more money down and carry higher interest rates than those for primary residences. The reason is that people are more likely to default on a secondary home or vacation home than a primary residence, so lenders are looking for people with flawless credit and more assets since they will be making two payments. Be prepared for a downturn. Resale values of second homes are far more volatile than those of primary homes, especially in the upper price brackets. Second homes are discre- tionary investments, so when the economy goes south, second-home values suffer earlier and more dramati- cally. Charles J.

'Evergreen' a loose term Q .We are going to try to maintain our .yard ourselves this year. I purchased 15-0-15, applied it and then realized it said it was for centipede grass. Will this be OK? Also, we have a lot of weed that reminds me of strawberry plants. What do we do with this? Thanks for any input you can give. PP A .You may use the fertilizer 150-15. In ..fact, I have seen this product and it has a large amount of the nitrogen, about 50 per- cent, which is slow release. This slow release nitrogen will provide some nitrogen for the plant to absorb a few weeks after the quick release nitrogen has been absorbed by the grass. The University of Florida suggests you fertilize in March and again in August or September. Apply an iron sulfate product during the summer and be sure it contains very little nitrogen. The weed you described may be Indian Mockstrawberry or Oldfield Cinquefoil. Either way, it is a perennial broadleaf weed and you can use a broadleaf weed killer on it as long as the product can be used on your St. Augustine grass. Be sure to read the directions carefully and complete- ly before applying it to your lawn. We would also suggest you apply it only where you have the weed problem (called spot treating) rather than spreading it all over the lawn. Q.Why do they call some trees and *.shrubs evergreen (like Magnolias) when we know they lose some of their leaves so they can't be "evergreen"? TB A The term evergreen is a loosely used Cl.term by the general public, which gen- erally means a tree retains its leaves year- round. Deciduous refers to those trees that drop all or most of their leaves when the tem- peratures drop and the amount of sunlight exposure diminishes. It is interesting that you chose magnolias because this family has some trees that are deciduous; some are evergreen and even a semi-evergreen. However, it is important to note that even if a tree is classified as "evergreen," it does not mean it never loses its 1^ they do not lose all of, their leaves at the same time or season. Pines S are considered ever- .-. |green but obviously Becky they lose their leaves fordi occasionally because we j ___ collect them and use ... them as mulch. Even Garden the Southern Magnolia, Talk which is considered evergreen, loses some of its leaves throughout the year. Little Gem and St Mary are two of the more familiar cultivars of Southern magnolia. Sweetbay Magnolia is the member of the magnolia family that is classified as semi-evergreen. Many of the magnolia trees are classified as deciduous and one such tree is the Cucumber Magnolia which produces pale yellow flowers. Another large group of decid- uous magnolias growing in this area include the cultivars Alexandrina, Brozzonii, Deep Purple Dreams and Grace McDade. Star Magnolia is another group of deciduous magnolias, which produce small white flow- ers and can reach a mature growth height of about 20 feet The Gresham hybrids are the tallest and produce the largest flowers. Many of the Gresham hybrids are well suited for Florida such as Jon Jon, Pink Goblet, Royal Crown and Winelight. !

Cincinnati Reds out- fielder Ken Griffey Jr. may feel that way, having suffered through one injury after another since he joined the Reds in a trade with Seattle. I have one such patient who likely feels the same way. His name is Taylor, and he is a great guy and a good 18-year-old soccer player. But unfortunately, it appears that his knees may not built for soccer. He sustained a right knee ACL tear a few years ago, and this was surgically treated with an ACL recon- struction. He then re-tore the same right knee about a year and a half ago, had surgery again and had recently got- ten back to play. He was excited about the start of his senior season of high school soccer. During one of the early season prac- tices, he cut hard and this time felt that terrible tearing sensation that he had become all to familiar with in his left knee. He was seen in my office and examined, and it was again confirmed that he had torn his ACL. This is Taylor's third ACL injury, two on the right and one on the left. He does like- ly have some hereditary pre- disposition. With that in mind, following is a column I wrote about Taylor three years ago. Taylor was moving quick- ly down the field with the ball, and only one player stood between him and the goal. As he went to make his move, the 15-year-old planted his left foot and cut hard to the-right, and the he heard a loud pup and hi- leftkfee . simply collapsed. He felt a terrible pain in his knee and fell to the ground. Taylor's soccer coach quickly reached his player, who was lying on the field, and Taylor reported that his bent knee felt out of place. Taylor was assisted in straightening his knee, and his knee clunked back into its proper position and his pain was reduced. He was now able to stand and walk, although his knee felt very weak and soon began to swell. Taylor's coach hap- pened to be a physical thera- pist and he suspected that Taylor had "blown out his knee," the dreaded phrase used to describe tearing of the anterior cruciate liga- ment, or ACL. He recommended to the player's parents that they see an orthopedic surgeon and asked if they knew any. Mom stated that they did and that they knew what all of this "ACL business" meant. Turns out, I had surgically repaired their daughter's torn ACL just a few years ago. When I saw Taylor and confirmed that he had indeed torn his ACL and that he too would require surgery to rebuild his knee, his par- ents couldn't believe their family's bad luck. They asked if I had ever had such a pair of cases, where broth- ers or sisters had torn their ACLs. At that time I had not, but since I have had one other example of similar sib- lings. In fact, this other case involved a set of twin boys, one who tore his ACL in karate and the other who sustained the same injury a week later jumping on a trampoline. Dr. Peter Fowler of the University of Western Ontario and London Health Science Center wondered as well how common these sib- ling related injuries occurred. He recently pre- sented the results of his study at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons. His findings were that the sibling of an ACIAnjured patient was twice as likely to sustain the same injury as the normal population. In fact, if one sib- ling had previously torn her ACL, the study revealed that SMITH Continued on 15A NASSAU SPORTS 14A Pirates roll, top Bucs 7-4 BETH JONES News-Leader The Pirates picked up their third win in a row Tuesday, beating district foe First Coast 7-4 on the road. Ryan Estes was on the mound for the Pirates. He scattered 10 hits in picking up his third win of the sea- son. He struck out four batters and walked one. "Will Harris' bases-loaded double in the fourth was the big hit," Fernandina Beach High School Coach Ken Roland said. .. The Pirates had five extra-base hits in the game with doubles from Hunter Burbank, Chris Conley, Harris (2) and a triple by Brett Moore. "We were not very sharp on defense," Roland said. "We made several mental mistakes that cost us oppor- tunities to get outs and left our team on the field too long. You can't win games by giving teams four and five outs." The Pirates jumped out to a 4-1 lead in the top of the third and added a pair of runs in the fourth and one in the seventh. The win came on the heels of last week's two-win performance in the Diamond. Classic, hosted by the Pirates during spring break. FBHS topped Orange Park 9-6 and upset a ranked Gainesville High School team. . "Sophomore right-hander Kevin Beck pitched an outstanding game," Roland said. "He matched Stetson University signee Mark Gentry pitch for pitch, only giving up three hits against the No. 2 ranked 4A team in the state." The Pirates (8-6)' traveled to Andrew Jackson Thursday and added tonight's game against Benedictine out of Savannah, Ga., to the schedule. First pitch is at 6 p.m. at The Ballpark at Fernandina.

BETH JONES/NEWS-LEADER 2f'*''^ *. ,- * .. ^. / .'i a ~,m$-~~'- -: - Inaugural tournament singles champion Martina Navratilova has committed to play doubles at the 2005 Bausch & Lomb Champion- ships, and tournament officials also received confirmation that No. 11 in the world, Vera Zvonareva, will compete in the 56-player singles draw. Returning for the 26th year, this world-class Sony Ericsson WTA Tour event is scheduled to take place Monday through April 10 at Amelia Island Plantation. "It's exciting to have Martina Navratilova play doubles at the Bausch & Lomb Championships this year. She is the greatest women's player in the world and we are honored to have her return to play doubles at Amelia Island," said tournament director, John Arrix. 'This year, we have a tal- ented singles draw. With the addi- tion 6f Zvonareva it adds even more depth to the field." Navratilova holds 167 singles career titles, more than any man or woman professional tennis player in the world, and 174 doubles titles. Seven doubles ties were won in 2003, and an additional title was captured in 2004 at Vienna with doubles partner, Lisa Raymond. Navratilova's 2005 doubles showing includes quarterfinal gains at Gold Coast, the Australian Open and Hyderabad. Navratilova has never captured the Bausch & Lomb Championships doubles title. She gained two final place- ments, one in 1989 with Pam Shriver and again in 2001 with Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario. Last year, Navratilova reached the round of 16 before falling in three sets to the team of Silvia Farina Elia and Francesca Schiavone. Zvonareva captured her third Sony Ericsson WTA Tour singles title this year at Memphis. This win gave Zvonareva the distinc- tion as the second straight top seed winner at Memphis, joining Ray- mond as the only multiple winner at this event. In 2004, Zvonareva earned her second Sony Ericsson WTA Tour title at Memphis where she defeat- ed Maria Sharapova in the semifi- nals before eliminating Raymond to claim the trophy. She also .secured a spot in the semifinals at five events Warsaw, Rome, San Diego, Montreal and Beijing - which assisted her climb in the rankings to No. 9 in the world.

If you think you're protected with a simple will ... think again ... In many cases a Will guaran- tees your estate will go through probate, which means your family will not be able to take possession of your estate for many months or even years! Plus, if your entire estate, which includes life insur- ance and retirement plans, is over $1,000,000 in 2011, your family may owe estate taxes which could amount to 41-55% of the value of your estate. This means that your family may have to sell some assets just to pay the estate taxes! A living trust can eliminate probate and minimize estate taxes. Plus, a living trust may protect your estate if you become incapacitated during your lifetime by avoiding guardianship. This means your estate may be managed as you see fit, not as a court-appointed guardian sees fit. To find out more about the benefits of living trust, attend one of these free seminars ...

Most of them are broken, revealing new forms, which he captures on film and enlarges. "I don't have to search for what I want; it will be here. So I just walk, and if it appears, I see it. If it doesn't show up, that's all right, too."

The : gallery - is locat- edin the main terminal of the airport. In excerpts from a statement included in the show, Olderman says, "A particular shell that 'calls' as I walk the line between ocean and shore is usually one that has been pecked at or frag- mented by the power of waves.

PHOTOS COURTESY OF RICHARD OLDERMAN 'Uniquely American' Loston Harris to play Arts Centre BEVERLY MILLER For the News-Leader The Washington Post Sunday Magazine paid tribute to Loston Harris in a cover story "for his blending of jazz riffs, gospel and blues with his own unique style" - a combination of which will be on the playbill when Harris, still in his 20s, performs at 7:30 p.m. Monday in the next-to-last offer- ing of the premier season of the Amelia Arts Centre. The center is located at First Baptist Church, corner of Fifth and Alachua streets. In the stor\, the.magazine dubbed Harris "the hip of subur- ban cool," acknowledging that he did not just adopt the music of the '40s and '50s, but found his own musical place in a constella- tion of stars. Harris, whose most recent release was 'Timeless," studied jazz with Dr. Ellis Marsalis, "whose students," his agent says, "have included Harry Connick, Jr. and the entire Marsalis clan." Throughout his high school years, Harris played the drums, but when Marsalis heard Harris tickling the ivories of his office piano, Marsalis, one of the great pianists in the history of jazz, taught Harris to use the piano so he could capitalize on his talent for the distinctive style of the uniquely American music. Harris eventually toured with Wynton Marsalis, and went on a dual-piano orchestra tour with Marcus Roberts, which won a Grammy nomination for Roberts Favorite Sorns The Island Chamber Singers will perform "Favorite Sons" at 8 p.m. tonight at the Amelia Arts Centre. The concert will feature music by English composers Thomas Morley and John Rutter. American composers include Randall Thompson and Aaron Copeland. The music will be a mixture of American folk songs, English madrigals and children's songs such as "Sing a Song of Spenc,"A p nist , Janet Cauthen and music director is Jane Lindberg.

He began drumming in the sixth grade, and was playing professionally by the time he was in high school. "I tried teaching special ed as an undergraduate, but wasn't happy. So, in my third year, I changed my major to art educa- tion; I had been exploring pho- tography, and seemed to have an affinity for it At the same time, I was still working as a drummer on the side. "All forms of art are a means of self-exploration and self- expression, and I found the visual arts an extension of my interest in music. So I ended up going back for my M.FA., with a con- centration in photography."

There are other vivid charac- ters in the movie, which does not have leads so much as actors who dominate the foreground and then move on. In a movie that uses nudity as if the 1970s had survived, Rosario Dawson's strip- per is a fierce dominatrix, Carla Gugino shows more skin than she could in Maxim, and Devon Aoki employs a flying guillotine that was borrowed no doubt from a circa-1970 Hong Kong exploiter. Rodriguez co-directed, pho- tographed and edited the movie, collaborated on the music and screenplay, and is co-producer. Frank Miller and Quentin Taran- tino are credited as co-directors, Miller because his comic books essentially act as storyboards, which Rodriguez follows with ferocity, Tarantino because he directed one brief scene on a day when Rodriquez was determined to wean him away from celluloid and lure him over to the dark side of digital. (It's the scene in the car with Clive Owen and Del Toro, who has a pistol stuck in his head.) Tarantino also contributed something to the culture of the film, which follows his influential "Pulp Fiction" in its recycling of pop archetypes and its circular story structure. The language of the film, both dialogue and narra- tion, owes much to the hard- boiled pulp novelists of the 1950s. Which brings us, finally, to the question of the movie's period. Skylines suggest the movie is set today. The cars range from the late 1930s to the 1950s. The cos- tumes are from the trench coat and g-string era. I don't think "Sin City" really has a period, because it doesn't really tell a story set in time and space. It's a visualization of the pulp noir imagination, uncompromising and extreme. Yes, and brilliant.
