HIGHLANDS COUNTY'S HOMETOWN NEWSPAPER SINCE 1927 FRIDAY COMING SUNDAY IN THE NEWS-SUN Academy boys try to guide young men in the right direction with words of encouragement WHAT'S INSIDE FASHION FUN Garden club raises money for youth Lifestyle, 1C * February 4, 2005 Board seeks attorney general's opinion By BARRY FOSTER News-Sun SEBRING Members of the Highlands County Canvassing Board are working on an issue that could have statewide implications. In fact, the canvassing board will be looking for an opinion from the office of Florida Attorney General Charlie Crist to decide how to deal with at least part of the matter. The situation came to light after a public records request to Highlands County Supervisor of Elections Joe Campbell from local activist Preston Colby. He asked for a copy of the minutes of the Nov. 2, 2004, can- vassing board meeting during this past election. "I told him I didn't have them and he would have to go to the court reporter because she had all of those transcripts in her possession," Campbell said. Campbell then consulted with Highlands County Attorney Ross Macbeth, who said that Campbell had to have the min- utes in his possession. Since that time, the minutes have been reconstituted from the transcripts but getting them adopted as required by state law is proving to be yet another problem. The issue came to a head Wednesday afternoon when mem- bers of the canvassing board were asked to adopt the minutes of previous meetings dating back to 1998. The problem is that only one of the current canvassing board members Campbell has served on all of the previous boards. The real question is, can we just accept them into the record as they are or do' we have to approve them?" Campbell asked. See OPINION, page 7A 50o opening 2005 season on road Sports, 1B PHIL ATTINGER/News-Sun Sebring police prepare at 5 p.m. Wednesday to tape off the CSX railroad crossing at Lemon Street in Sebring where a young man on a bicycle tried to cross in front of an approaching freight train and got hit. Nehemiah Adolphus Sinclair Jr., 23, was transported by Emergency Medical Services to Highlands Regional Medical Center, where he died from his injuries. Bicyclist tries to beat train, dies from injuries Onlookers express sorrow before knowing his name By PHIL ATTINGER News-Sun , SEBRING Just before 4:40 p.mn';\\cdnesda), a man on a bicycle ran parallel to the CSX railroad tracks and tried to cross at Lemon Street in front of an approaching freight train. He didn't make it. The right front corer of the lead engine caught the back tire of the bicycle and threw Nehemiah Adolphus Sinclair Jr., 23, about 15-20 yards diag- onally away from the tracks. He Landed west of the railroad into a spot among weeds and brush. His bicycle landed alongside the gravel track bed: Highlands County Emergency Medical Services and Sebring Fire and Rescue tried to stabilize him and took him to Highlands Regional Medical Center. He died at the hospital from his injuries. Many bystanders prayed and expressed sorrow before even knowing who had been hit.

Gene Walker, investigator with the Bureau of Fire and Arson Investigations, Division of the State Fire Marshall, said the fire started inside the facility in a storage area containing granusol iron. He said the substance is not very flammable. It's a powder that gets coat- ed in a sugar-based material to make pel- lets used in making fertilizer. Walker believes that the granusol iron sponta- neously combusted. Ben Henley, 911 communication director, said the material is not listed as a hazardous material. Contrary to initial reports, it is not reactive with fire or water, and has a melting point of 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit. When around it, people are asked to wear a mask.

VOLUME 8/NUMBER 20 PHIL ATTINGER/News-Sun Highlands County Sheriff Susan Benton pins a new rank badge on Major Paul Hinman at a public pro- motion ceremony Thursday night at the county commission boardroom in Sebring. Hinman, detention commander, will retire Feb. 15 to care for his ailing wife. 'I hate to leave the agency and the new sheriff, especially with all the changes taking place, but my priorities are in order,' Hinman said. 'A part of me will still be here after I walk out the door.' "It never reached that temperature," Henley said. Firefighters normally wear self-con- tained breathing apparatus whenever they go into a structure fire. As a precau- tion, the Highlands County Hazardous Materials Team hosed off firefighters as they returned to the staging area at the south of the plant. All precautions were taken in case of contamination, Henley said. Fortunately, there were none. Usually, the haz-mat team is called anytime chemicals are present. For Tuesday's fire, the team served mostly as an on-site resource. One problem the team had was getting a standing decontamination shower cage to work properly. Henley said that some of the fittings had gotten worn and wouldn't hold. Instead, the team did decontamination with boom-mounted shower nozzles on hoses. Henley said the fire, which started shortly before 6 p.m. Tuesday, damaged the external wall. Work crews had to demolish that wall Wednesday to con- firm the fire was completely out. See LESCO, page 7A By PHIL ATTINGER News-Sun SEBRING Within the first month of taking office, Highlands County Sheriff Susan Benton changed the rank and position of more than a dozen people at the office. Getting those people pre- pared for their new roles and preparing the entire sheriff's office for the changes will take adjustment. Benton believes reorganization will make the agency more responsive to community needs, especially if deputies buy into the changes. On Thursday, Dr. Jim Sewell, the assistant commissioner of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, gave a seminar showing ranking officers what they would experience during change and how they can deal with it. Any change makes stress. People at Highlands County Sheriff's Office, SewellI said, have a history of work- i n g ,.. together ;.r toward the common SEWELL goal of making the community better. Sewell said leaders will need to demonstrate how their jobs make the community a better place.

LAKE PLACID The 39th annual Lake Placid Arts and Crafts Country fair is coming to DeVane Park this weekend. The arts and crafts fair is a long-standing tradition, going back for 38 years. Held the first full weekend each February, the fair fills up DeVane Park and part of Lake Placid Elementary School with arts and crafts ven- dors, exhibits, demonstrations, entertainment and home- cooked food. To qualify to sell at the fair, vendors must make their own arts and crafts by hand and not through some method of mass production. That makes the Lake Placid Arts and Crafts Country Fair a showpiece of handmade arts and crafts. About 200 vendors show up each year, and this year promis- es to be no exception. Surprises are always in store. For example, products at this year's country fair will run the gamut from decorated chil- dren's clothes to sculpted stone oil lamps to handmade jewelry and wooden children's toys to Lucite butterflies and hand- painted glassware. The Lake Placid Arts and Crafts Country Fair Committee stages an arts and crafts contest at the same time. Entries are on display at Lake Placid Elementary School and can include everything from poetry to paintings to woodcarvings to photography. Shuttles run from DeVane Park to the school throughout the day. Hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Singers, dancers and a bagpipe band will be entertaining guests during fair hours. Sandy Mathews will be the emcee both days. On Friday, the Rev. Richard A. Norris, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, will give the opening prayer. Mayor John Holbrook will welcome visi-' tors, and Arlene Batten will sing Spring Fling PHIL ATTlNGER/News-Sun Diane Thompson (from left), Leah Grecko, Patty Young and Virginia Peck rehearse Monday for the inaugural Spring Fling concert to benefit local charities, held this Saturday, Feb. 5, at Highlands Little Theatre.

Bowen & Son negotiating with board on roof work By CHRISTOPHER TUFFLEY News-Sun SEBRING Tuesday night the Highlands 'County school board agreed to open negotia- tions with Bowen & Son Roofing Inc. regarding a three year continuing contract to repair or replace roofs on public schools. The only other company competing for the contract was A.D. Morgan, a general con- tracting firm headquartered in Tampa, with an office locally. A. D. Morgan, a general contracting firm, has done a great deal of work for the school board in the past, and is currently working at the Avon Park High School, among other sites in the district. Board members expressed the difficulty they had in choos- ing between two companies they felt were equally worthy. "It kills me, because we've been well served by A. D. Morgan," board member Wendy Renfro said. But ultimately, the fact that Bowen & Son Roofing special- izes in the work to be done, and would not need to hire a sub- contractor to do it, won the debate. The fact that Bowen & Son is held in high esteem by board members as a result of its work during and following the hurri- canes was also a significant fac- tor., "In our case, our roofer real- ly stepped up to the plate," Wally Cox, superintendent of schools, said. If signed, the contract would make Bowen & Son Inc. the contractor on record for all school district roofing jobs costing up to $500,000, for the next three years. The company could replace roofs as well as repair them. There is a Build and Design component in the contract, which means that Bowen & Son, and not the school board, would provide the architectural and engineering consultants needed during a roof replace- ment process. the National Anthem. The color guard of Placid Post 25, The American Legion, will present the colors. The Highlands Brigade Bagpipe Band will kick off the day's entertainment at 9:30 a.m. An hour later, the Caladium Country Cloggers will dance.

The Country Fair Awards will be presented in the chil- dren's categories at noon. Adult awards will be announced at 2 p.m. On Sunday, the Highlands Brigade Bagpipe Band will per- form at 11:30 a.m. Gary Filip will sing popular music at noon, and Rebekah Loweke will sing at 1:30 and 2:15 p.m. A girls' trio of Nickie Clifton, Megan Spurlock and Kaitlyn Cross will close out the entertainment for the day. The Country Fair's People's Choice.Awards will be present- ed at 2 p.m. Sunday. Food booths will be stationed around DeVane Park. The Action Revival Family Worship Center will sell sausage with peppers and onions, while Trinity Lutheran Church will have bratwurst, sauerkraut, German potato salad and apple crisp.

Sebring council meets new Harder Hall principals By BARRY FOSTER News-Sun SEBRING City council Tuesday night approved a request to waive a $7,600 per- mit fee for construction on Harder Hall. However, the encounter with new Joran proj- ect manager Kevin Taylor might have raised additional questions with city officials. The action came in the wake of the termination of former project manager Gary Puckett and the subsequent withdrawal of Trinity Construction as the general contractor on the job. Trinity's cancellation caused the questions about the permit. "I'm not happy with the changes at all," said Council- woman Margie Rhpade, : Those *entimenis wNere echoed by Councilman Buddy Whitlock. He and other mem- bers of the council previously had voted to stand behind a $5.2 million United States Department of Housing and Urban Development loan. He now called that action into question. "When I voted for this, a lot of it had to do with the'people involved. I don't have that com- fort level now," he said. Taylor responded by offering his personal commitment to the project, asking council not to look to the past but only to the future. Habitat plans March tag sale AVON PARK Habitat for Humanity of Highlands County is planning a Tag Sale in March with all proceeds benefiting the Women's Build project. The sale will be at Riverside National Bank, 2151 U.S. 27 in Sebring (across from Home Depot) from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, March 12. For pickup of donations call 453-9695 or 257-0066. "The new people are very qualified," he said. Taylor, who referred to him- self as a corporation vice presi- dent and the interim project manager, was first introduced as the restaurant manager for the hotel. "That's stilt the plan.J will manage the restaurant," he said. Taylor also introduced the new general contractor - Pedrang Patrick Jovanov, who represented Bristol/August Incorporated. Jovanov told council mem- bers that he previously he had been a driver for developer Marc Shenker and also operat- ed a car dealership. When asked what experience he. had in historic buildings. TiJiario\ said lie as getting '"a crash.course",and had a number of books on the subject. He also held up a binder he said was information on the building. In a call to the Harder Hall offices, Jovanov declined to answer questions, saying only he would entertain a list of writ- ten inquiries. "I'm not in a position right now to have any discussion," he said. He was not certain when the answers might be forthcoming. "I was never very good with any deadlines," he said. Jovanov then terminated the call. Whitlock said he did not like what he had been hearing and reading about Harder Hall, apparently referring to charges of unauthorized, unpermitted and substandard work on the hotel. Taylor responded that the work was not building, it sim- ply was renovation of the exist- ing building. Sebring Mayor George Hensley questioned Taylor extensively about provisions for insurance including workers compensation and a certificate of liability. Sebring Building Official Jim Jacobs said the firm had pulled a permit for construction last week,.and he already had been al tlhe hoiel for a prelimi- nary walk-ihrou2h. ,"There were a few things that I had asked for and they said I'd get them," Jacobs said. Among other things, Jacobs asked for documentation on a number of window and door installations as well as verifica- tion on mold abatement. "They're going to have to have the environmental engi- neers back out there to check for contaminants and that the abatement had been done," he said. Jacobs said he planned future inspections as well.

News-Sun, Friday, February 4, 2005 Police * Highlands County report Bateman charged with burglary, methadone SEBRING At 3 p.m. Jan. 30, a witness allegedly saw Michelle Lena Bateman, 21, of Sebring, enter a locked bedroom door by using a knife to pry open the latch. That same witness, according to complaint affi- davits, told Highlands County sheriff's deputies that she saw Bateman take a shirt and a pair of shorts out from underneath her jacket. Bateman told deputies she had permission to borrow the male victim's clothing, but not permission to enter his room. However, when she was found with methadone adnd clonazepam in her bag, she said she was set up by the witness. Deputies also found sero- quel a controlled sub- stance in Bateman's bag, which she said was given to her by her mother. Deputies charged Bateman with burglary of a dwelling, five counts of petit theft and possession of methadone, of clbnazepam, and of a legend drug (seroquel) without a prescription. Total bail was set at $3,250 for all charges, except burglary, which had no bail amount. Blocker charged under burglary warrants LAKE PLACID Police have arrested and charged the man believed responsible for set of nighttime business burglaries in November 2004,...- On Monday, Jan. 31, Lake Placid police charged Quinton Donnell Blocker, 21, of Lake Placid, under warrants for five counts of burglary, one count of petit theft, one count of criminal mischief, and one count of possession of burglary tools. Bail was set at $7,000. Lake Placid Elementary School was burglarized on Nov. 18, 2004. The suspect entered a west side window into the cafeteria and entered an inner office through a small-diameter window. The burglar ransacked the office looking for valuables, but nothing was taken. Police also found a ham- mer that was apparently used to knock out portions of a door grate to a cooler in the cafeteria. On Nov. 29, police had stakeouts in place when a burglary alarm went off in another part of town. A Highlands County sheriff's deputy responded at 1:28 a.m. to Pitti Pat's Pawlor, which is next door to The Quilt Shop and Patter's restaurant in a mini-mall in Lake Placid. The deputy found an open window on the back of Pitti Pat's as well as on the other two businesses. A burglary with a similar method of operation had occurred at the restaurant on Nov. 11. The window on Pitti Pat's and The Quilt Shop were small 12 inches by 17 inches. The inside of The Quilt Shop had been ran- sacked, and a burglar left shoe impressions on both the outside and inside of the stores, just below the win- dow. It was the only shoe print at the scene, so investi- gators believed it was a one- person crime. Or Nov. 30, police ques- tioned Blocker whilehe was arrested on a charge of bur- glary at Foster's Paint Store in Lake Placid. His shoes appeared to match the shoe prints. The officer asked if Blocker. was the only one who wore the shoes. He said he wasn't, but after further discussion he admitted he was the one who had bur- glarized Patter's Restaurant and The Quilt Shop. He start- ed to burglarize Patti Pat's Pawlor, but had to stop when the alarm went off. According to complaint affidavits, he admitted to burglarizing Patter's once before then. Fingerprint analysis reportedly con- firmed this and his connec- tion with the Nov. 11 restau- rant burglary. Blocker also allegedly said he burglarized the school because he'd done it three years before and found money. He reportedly told police he knocked out a door grate with a hammer. Construction under way * mi -1 ._~ ... ,- :4-af I. -'~ : 't L ' %,., CINDY MARSHALL/News-Sun Construction got under way this week for the new facility for Heartland Horses & Handicapped Inc. off College Drive in Avon Park.

County to cross-train landfill operators for early response By PHIL ATTINGER News-Sun SEBRING County employees and commissioners don't want another landfill fire like Nov. 19, 2004. The fire burned for three weeks. It took another six weeks to put out hot spots. Smoke from the fire threatened to shut down Arbuckle Creek Road. The fire sent a couple of landfill operators to the hospital with smoke inhalation injuries, and cost the county a $95,000 compactor that .was stranded close to the fire and burned. Human Resources Director Fred Carino got involved as county safety coordinator with the workers' compensation cases. Local landfill staff aren't trained to use the self-contained breathing apparatus that fire- fighters use, but must drive up to the blaze to pull layers off while firefighters douse the flames. Commissioner Bob Bullard, who claimed extensive experi- ence fighting landfill fires, said they are one of the most haz- ardous fire sites. Fire crews use long probe nozzles shoved into the mound to douse the blaze, but water can collect in steam pockets and explode. Carino said a night patrol could catch fires earlier, but would cost the county an extra $100,000 per year in labor costs and equipment. On Tuesday, commissioners approved a budget amendment to buy the landfill a new $13,000 fire-rated water pump, a used $5,000 1984 GMC/FMC four-wheel-drive fire engine BULLARD CARINO from the Sun 'N Lake of Lake Placid Fire District surplus, and fireproof all the external and exposed hydraulic hose lines on the landfill bulldozers, track loader, compactor, and track hoes. The new pump should be able to pull water from on-site ponds. Commission Chairman Andrew Jackson dissented in the 4-1 vote. He said buying expensive equipment should have been included in the annu- al budget. No building was part of Tuesday's request. Bullard and Commissioner Barbara Stewart said they would like to have the fire engine housed in a barn or shelter to protect hoses from weather damage. Bullard also wants landfill staff trained on breathing apparatus. County Administrator Carl Cool said landfill staff didn't see the November fire in time, which allowed it to bur deep. Another fire broke out in the working face of the Class 1 landfill on June 28, 2004. It -burned undetected for six hours, took two hours, to con- trol, and another week to com- pletely extinguish. "Time is of the essence," Cool said. "If it goes deep, you can't put it out." A deep-burning fire could ruin the leachate recirculation system and burn the liner at the bottom of the mound. That would render the entire landfill useless. Part of the problem with the November fire was bringing in enough water. The Division of Forestry assisted local fire department tankers with its tanker. Sebring Fire Department lent a thermal imager to help find hot spots.

News-Sun, Friday, February 4, 2005 Dealing with change It takes a minimum of one and a half years for people to adjust to significant profession- al or personal changes. All peo- ple move at a different pace. Shock or Denial. A person must come to grips with the reality of change to deal with it fully. Emotions. Usually anger, emotions will run rampant dur- ing the adjustment. Bargaining. People will look for a way out of accepting or dealing directly with the change, so it "won't affect them." Depression. People are, in fact, grieving for the way things were. It's normal. Acceptance. People will either accept the change because they have to or because they want to. To adjust in a healthy way, people must remember these stages are normal and neces- sary, that bad feelings are not bad behaviors, to "keep people informed by increasing the information flow, and create familiarity within the change by keeping some things that make sense. Also, encourage people to take good care of themselves physically by watching for signs of stress such as physical pain, irregular breathing, rushed eating and living pace, or irregular sleeping patterns. They should get some playful recreation to help them cope. Getting them ready CINDY MARSHALL/News-Sun Judy Hagle, of the Rainbow Red Hatters in Frostproof, places a red boa around Sebring resident Bill Minck's neck Thursday afternoon before he joined his group, the Sounds of Sebring, to sing in front of 250 Red Hat Society members. The Sounds of Sebring performed at Florida Hospital Heartland Medical Center in Sebring where a two-day health conference was host- ed for more than 500 women in Red Hat chapters throughout the Heartland area. Members of the Red Hat Society decided the men needed to dress in red hats and boas. TRAIN Continued from 1A with bystanders on both sides of the crossing while police inves- tigated the scene. What happened Sebring Police Department Traffic Investigator Cpl. Greg Barlaug said Sinclair was trav- eling south on Zephyr Street - an access;road that runs along- side the CSX Transportation railroad .tracks in Sebring. He allegedly rode his bicycle around the. east side crossing gate and attempted to cross the tracks diagonally toward the end of the west side crossing gate. Conductor Lavon Hooper of Lakeland told police the three- engine train 94 cars long and weighing 9,500 tons was going about 40 mph with its headlight on, blowing its horn. Crossing warnings were in place, including closed gates, flashing lights and cross-buck signs. Police also checked other warnings, such as bells, to see that they were working. Police spent nearly two hours at the scene and reopened the Lemon Street crossing at 6:35 p.m., once the train had reset its brakes and had cleared the track. Witneesses SHooper and engineer Anthony Coucciro of Miami were the only two on the Miami-bound train. Barlaug had no other eyewitnesses. Nathan Barron, 15, of Sebring, was in the area and told the News-Sun that he saw an adult on the tracks as the train was coming. Barron yelled at him to get out of the way. The man's description, however, did not match Sinclair. Caution advised The crossing sits just one block east of Eucalyptus Street, CHANGES Continued from 1A what you want to do. Your responsibility," he told the supervisors, "is to let people feel a part of it. Show them it will be better in the end." Communicate First, inform people on what's going on, and go to them to find out how they are doing. Where Realtors preach "location, location, location." Managers should remember, "Communication, communica- tion, communication," Sewell said. It will manage resistance to change by giving people a better feel for how that change will affect them. Involve Whenever possible, involve the line officers in the policy setting process. Not only will they agree with the final choic- es, but they will take ownership of them, because they helped develop them. Vent Everyone needs a time and place to'vent how change makes them angry. Sewell said this is good and necessary, but supervisors cannot vent with their rank and file officers. Likewise, each person has a responsibility to tell a boss, in private, what they think is working right or wrong, but not fellow workers. Answer When questions aren't answered, people come to their own conclusions. Sewell said when a manager doesn't know, he or she should get an answer. When they do know, but cannot say, they should say so and why. Otherwise, the organiza- tion will make up stories. Lead Department brass should be on the street with the rest, Sewell said, to show support and demonstrate how the job is as important to them as to the patrol de put. Flex Each manger must learn from what happens and adjust, Sewell said, like naval vessels that fire first to establish their own position, then fire to hit. the future route of Sebring Parkway Phase 2. County- Engineer Ramon Gavarrete hopes to begin building that road in summer 2006. It will take two years. "We are asking. a lot of patience from the users," Gavarrete said. East Center Street will be a signalized intersection while Lemon Street will not. Engineers will try to discourage people from crossing the park- way at Lemon Street, and fun- nel foot and motor traffic to East Center Street. There, Gavarrete will order 250-foot turn lanes, well defined pedestrian crossings, Sand full crossing gates and warnings at the railroad track.

Inside are a U.S. Navy certificate, a paper credit card and photographs of children. Terri Buckalew found the box when cleaning out her grandmother's wood frame home on South Anoka Avenue. Now, she'hopes to find someone from Johnson's family,so that the box full of' sentimental papers can be rightfully returned to them. Buckalew has had recurring dreams about the home since her grandmother died five years ago. Although her uncle also lived ill the house after Buckalew's grandmother died, the dreams contin- ued. He died a year later. The house has since been sold. When the family went to clean out the house before selling it, Buckalew found the box under the staircase. "I used to dream that there was a treasure behind the wall in my great- grandmother's bedroom. On the other side of the wall from the staircase was her closet so this must have been what I was dreaming about. The dreams stopped several months ago," Buckalew said. She said she was looking for senti- mental stuff that once belonged to her grandmother or uncle, and instead found someone else's sentiments. The box tells a story about Johnson, who Buckalew believes must have lived in the house before her grandmother bought it more than 20 years ago. Johnson was born in Bristol, Ga., in 1925. If still living, he turned 79 in December. to return box of photos of Carl Johnson He received an honorable discharge from the U.S. Navy in 1946 after serv- ing for two years. He was a Seaman First Class. Johnson's wife's name was Bertha. Though there are no children's-names found in the box, there are photographs of what appears to be three girls at dif- ferent stages in their young lives. There is also a photograph of a young boy with "J.W." written on the back, and a photo of an infant with "Susan Lorraine DeLoach 5/22/60" written in pencil on the back. Johnson was a blood donor and a member of an athletic club. He must have enjoyed fishing since a fishing license was also found. He was also a union member with the International Brotherhood of Pulp, Sulphur and Paper Mill Workers. The family once lived in Fernandina Beach and in addition to the house on South Anoka Avenue, had also lived on Canfield Street in Avon Park. In 1961, Johnson paid $263.80 for a set of World Book Encyclopedias. There are also a couple of life insur- ance policies in the box. "If it were my family, I'd want it (the box) just for the sentimental value. Obviously this stuff would mean some- thing to someone in the family. If Mr. Johnson's not still around here, I'm sure his children would love to have the things he must have thought so much of," Buckalew said. The box holds nothing of monetary value, but the sentimental value is prob- ably priceless. "It's got to mean something to some- one," Buckalew said. Photos by SUMMER FERRANTE/News-Sun These photographs of children were also found in the metal box. WARREN'S AUTO SALES WWW.WARRENSAUTOSALES.COM CHECK US OUT! 2002 TOYOTA PRE RUNNER iU iuIMIIL.

Members (from left) Katie Mehling with Pep Club; Queneithia Eason with Student Government Association; David Robinson, principal; Lindsay Howard with FFA; Lisa Przychocki with National Junior Honor Society; and Lauren Taylor, cheerlead- ing, were proud of the effort put forth by their clubs to raise money in behalf of the families affected by the tsunami. Hill-Gustat raises more than $2,000 for tsunami victims SEBRING A "Tsunami Relief Campaign" was held at Hill-Gustat Middle School dur- ing the week of Jan. 10-14. As students learned about the causes of tsunamis in sci- ence, developed their map skills as they located the affect- ed areas in geography classes, read about the impact of the tidal waves in reading and lan- guage arts classes, and calculat- ed the distance the tsunami traveled in math, their empathy for the victims grew. They decided il;ey too could ..... a difference by having a fund- raiser. The students, faculty, and staff spent a week partici- pating in a variety of activities to raise money in support of the many families affected by this disaster. Each organization sponsored an activity to support the cause. The student government mem- bers collected "Spare Change" on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday before school for the Tsunami Relief fund raising $267.52. The cheerleaders and Pep Club sold Jolly Rancher Lollipops each day during lunch and raised $544.76. Other activities included a Hooky Hang-Out, sponsored by the National Junior Honor Society, where for a $1 dona- tion students could get a "hang- out pass" out of class. They were then able to spend 30 minutes outside with their friends during eighth period Thursday. The National Junior Honor Society raised $533.65. On Friday, the Future Farmers of America sponsored Hat Day where students paid a dollar to wear a hat all day at school and they raised $173. The faculty and staff also participated in the fund-raising activities. For $5 each, the teachers were able to wear jeans all week which raised more than $180. A check for the week's combined donation total of $2,022.18 was present- ed to the American Red Cross representative, Art Harriman, by the clubs, representatives Monday. The Hill-Gustat Middle School students are proud to have had a part in sup- porting the efforts of the United States in making private dona- tions to aid this important effort.

They came together to make even a bigger organization in support of our military. In 1861, it is considered the beginning of the YMCA serv- ice to the military with praising them from President Lincoln. Throughout World War II, the USO was in more than 3,000 communities. The USO became the home away from home for the GI's to keep their spirits up. Between 1940 and 1944, the U.S. troops grew from 50,000 to 12 million, the USO's were in churches, log cabins, museums, castles, barns, beach and yacht clubs, old mansions, store fronts and even rail road cars. It was the place to -go for."free"coffee and donuts and a plee to dance, to meet people, see movies or just a quiet place to write letters to "home." USO Camp Shows from 1941-47 presented 428,521 performances with the curtains rising 700 times a day to audi- ences as large as 15,000 and as small as 25 soldiers. There were more than 7,000 enter- tainers traveled overseas to support our troops. In 1950 when the United States entered the Korean War (Conflict), once again the USO Camp Shows became alive, performing for the battle-weary troops and for the GI's in the EVAC hospitals in Japan. In the '60s, for the first time in history, the USO centers were located in combat zones. The first USO in Vietnam opened in Saigon along with 17 more centers as the war pro- gressed, six were opened in Thailand and served as a mil- lion "customers" a month. Bob Hope took his Christmas show and the shows continued into the next decade. The '70s, '80s, '90s, and even in December 2003, the USO opened a "new" center in Kuwait to comfort and support our men and women in uni- form. Today the USO operates 124 centers worldwide, in 10 countries and 21 states, with 12,000 volunteers. As the USO celebrates 63 years of service the world is still witnessing history, making events. But one thing is for cer- tain is the USO will fulfill its mission to the United States military personnel and their families, until. "everyone comes home."

Importance to be considered Editor: For those who watched CBS's "Sixty Minutes" last evening (Jan. 16), I am curious to know how you felt when you saw the story of a journalist imbedded with our soldiers in Iraq, in live battle? Did you happen to notice the trucks that were re-enforced with pieces of scrap metal sol- dered and bolted together, a makeshift effort to protect them from the hail of insurgents' bul- lets? And did you happen to won- der why the millions of dollars that is being wasted on the most expensive and flamboyant inauguration in American his- tory instead of using the money, or at least a portion of it, for acceptable armor to pro- tect our men and. women who are being ambushed and killed e ery day in a war George W. Bush unnecessarily caused to happen? Did it happen to cross your mind of how many men and women have already died because they were unequipped with correct and adequate armor to protect themselves? And how about family mem- bers who have had to buy pro- tective gear and mail the equip- ment to their loved ones in Iraq facing the heat of battle? How did it make you feel when you saw the patchwork of old metal our soldiers ingen- iously put together because the United States government failed to anticipate what war is all about? Were you proud of America, the richest country in the world that initiated an unprovoked war and failed to provide our soldiers with protective gear and heavy equipment necessary to keep them safe? "Sixty Minutes" is seen all over the world and that includes our enemies. Republicans, does that make you proud of your president? Are you brain dead? How do you justify the use 'of "the,people's" money this president has used to bribe broadcasters and others to pub- lish propaganda of fear to the American public and to the world? Do you recall the "color code scares?" Every time horri- ble things were happening with the war in Iraq, George W. Bush signaled Tom Ridge, his good friend, to raise the warn- ing of "impending disaster" to divert the attention from his fiasco in Iraq. This president 'has led this country by his doomsday intimidation of fear and crisis, propped up by sweet deals under the table. The so-called "crisis" of Social Security is a perfect example of his scare tactics. Another spot in history he desires to affix his signature on. "Crisis, fear Social Security is going broke Now," so says George W.; but we know it is solvent for many years to come. It can wait until Bush is out of office. Has it ever occurred to Americans when awake, that this party time inaugural cost- ing many millions of dollars of the "people's" money is in real- ity a "pay back" party? This is for the wealthy and in-famous companies, the lob- byists who bought their way into government by supporting George W. Bush's crooked administration. This pay back party is to blatantly say "thank you" for buying a place for my name in the history books. And look who's picking up the tab. This administration is an evil company of thugs who favors only the rich. This America is weak. It was once a proud nation. Gradually big business. with all the corruption has worn us down. One administra- tion with its own personal agendas to benefit self interest- ed has followed on the heels of another until we find ourselves in this despicable position of four more years being bull- dozed into submission by a bully who was not f president in the first pl Why do we worry or ourselves about young men and women bein and wounded every every night?

RALPH BUSH Publisher CINDY MARSHALL Night/Weekend Editor AT RANDOM Romona Washington Lessons to live by Some of you may or may not know my sister Tammy. She is a trip someone I've always admired because of her happy outlook on life. It doesn't matter what's going on, for the most part, she has a smile on her face and an upbeat attitude. She sent me an e-mail the other day and I just had to laugh. It's so typical of the way she looks at life and consider- ing she doesn't mind being called a "redneck woman" I thought I'd share some of those thoughts, coming from "A Cowboy's Guide to Life." Your fences need to be horse high, pig tight and bull strong. Life ain't about how fast you run, or how high you climb, but how well you bounce. Keep skunks and bankers and lawyers at a distance. Life is simpler when you plow around the stump. A bumble bee is consider- ably faster than a John Deere tractor. Words that soak into your ears are whispered ... not yelled. Meanness don't jest hap- pen overnight. Forgive your enemies. It messes up their heads. (This one is oh so true. Besides, it's what God expects us to do. If you haven't tried it, do so. If nothing else, it will make you feel so much better). Do not corer something that you know is meaner than you. It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge. You cannot unsay a cruel word. Every path has a few pud- Reaers rspns I Letr LA AX 19A News-Sun, Friday, February 4, 2005 Contradictions of creationism We need to own our own decisions I've talked to a lot of atheists online. One told me that he would proba- bly be a Christian if he had not been raised a Creationist. On finding out that Creationism is nonsense every- thing came unraveled. A young girl, about 20, told me that she narrowly escaped the same fate before making it into the ranks of Christians who believe in evolu- tion. Creationists are taught that there is no Christianity outside of Creationism, ignoring the fact that most Christians believe in evolution. The Bible was never intended to reveal scientific law. The earth can only be a few thousand years old, Creationists try to tell us. The magnetic field is vanishing, continents are dry- ing out and turning to deserts and so forth. They tell us that distant stars were created along with light rays that appear to come from them. If we believe this, a few thousand years ago, the Creationist God had a panic attack. "Oh, no. I forgot that I meant to create a universe 15 bil- lion years ago. I'll have to fake it." The Creationist God turns out to be a shoddy workman whose creation falls to pieces in a few thousand years. In contrast, the God of Christians who believe in evolution can set up a universe that lasts for billions of years with no apparent maintenance. There doesn't seem to be any connection between the beliefs of modern Creationists and their brethren of the past. Around 1800, naturalists like Gorges Curvier and William Buck land thought that fossils of extinct animals must belong to a previ- ous creation. Presumably. God had destroyed the previous world before the creation in Genesis, leaving inexplicable fossils. Tony Campolo, a present day Baptist min- ister, sees the world in terms of the Expulsion From Eden. "There is a strange sadness in the chirping of birds," he tells us. He is horrified to see blood on the faces of lion cubs devouring a kill. The Bible does not share Campolo's horror of animal blood. "Take some of the bull's blood and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger, and pour out the rest of it at the base of the altar." (Exodus 29:12 NIV) Campolo thinks that animals before the Fall could not have included predators. The problem is that Genesis says that God had already finished making animals when the Fall happened. If there were no predators before the Fall, then God must have created a lot of animals afterward, some- thing not mentioned in Genesis. Lions, tigers, cheetahs, jaguars, cougars, ocelots, bob- cats and house cats are all preda- tors. So are wolves, so the entire cat and dog families must have been created after the Fall. Other mammalian carnivores include bats, anteaters and killer whales. Many fish are, predators, including sharks, barracuda, bluefish, piranhas, and many oth- ers. Among reptiles, no snakes are herbivores. The post-Fall cre- ation must include alligators, crocodiles and iguanas. Among amphibians frogs and toads eat flies and so must be post-Fall creations. Among birds, owls, hawks, eagles and ospreys are meat-eating predators, as are pel- icans, flamingos and other long- legged shored birds, such as egrets, ibis, herons and various spoonbills. All spiders are carnivores. As for insects, we must assume that mosquitoes could not have exist- ed before the Fall. Neither could GUEST COLUMN Dale Gillis anything else that stings or bites, including bees, wasps, hornets and ants. Not all animals are predators, but many others are shaped by their need to escape from preda- tors. Horses, zebras, deer, ante- lope, elk and caribou are fleet of foot, the better to outrun carni- vores. Other animals carry armor, including turtles, armadil- los, shellfish and snails. Insects and- many other animals evade predators' with camouflage. The natural world we know is shaped by the predator-prey rela- tionship. The Bible says that ani- mals were created on the fifth and sixth days in Genesis 1:20- 25. Creationists say that carni- vores weren't created until the time that Eve and Adam were thrown out of Eden. If the Creationists are right, the Bible is wrong. It clearly says that before Adam, fish, "every winged bird," "wild animals," and "livestock" were created by the sixth day. Adam names "all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air" in Genesis 2:19 NIV. "So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the beasts of the field." Genesis 2:20 NIV. Campolo and other Creationists deny that "all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air:" were created before the Fall. Instead, they hold that God's creation was sup- plemented later, something the Bible fails to mention. The only new living things after the Fall are the "thorns and thistles" in Genesis 3:18. Creationism collapses of its own contradictions. Dale Gillis is a Sebring resident. Guest columns are the opinion of the writer not necessarily that of the News-Sun.

It's time we wake up and begin to realize that there will be temptations, and that it is not a sin to be tempted, but it is a sin to yield to tempta- tion. We have to also realize that not everything that appears negative in our lives is the work of the devil. We could also be tested by God. When are we going to own the decisions we make and stop looking for someone or something to blame. There are also the things that God allows to happen so that mankind can give him glory, honor and praise. Some things can appear so devastat- ing at the time of the occur- rence that we question why? For example, looking at the tsunami in South Asia, the worst natural disaster in decades and the massive de- struction that killed thou- sands, we try to find answer. However, we were able to see an out-pouring of support with Christians, Muslims, Hindu and other religious affiliation worldwide, coming together to bring aid to the suffering. God showed that despite our i difference we could work together. The four hurricanes that blew through Florida although they brought despair, also showed the human side of tragedy and what can happen when we allow God to guide us. Strangers offering a help- ing hand without compensa- tion. In the midst of it all God was there. The blame game has been playing since the beginning of the earth, when although warned by God not to eat or touch the tree of good and evil, Eve ate and then shared it with her husband Adam. When confronted by God they hid. Eve told God that it was the devil's fault, Adam told God it was Eve's fault, no one took responsibility for their action. So it was then ... still it is to day. Yes! Satan does prowl and he does tempt, but instead of yielding why not rebuke him and give God the glory.. Don't forget that in all things, we should give God thanks and praise.

All five of the Lady Blue Streak starters scored in double figures despite playing limited minutes. 20 Years Ago Feb. 4, 1985: Florida Southern scored four runs on five hits in the seventh to turn a 5-2 deficit into a 6-5 lead that became an 8-6 win over SFCC. Tim Janego went 3-for-4 with two RBIs to lead the Panthers. 25 Years Ago Feb. 5, 1980: Behind 26 points from the line, and 16 from Alvin Conner, Avon Park (17-2) routed 7-10 Lake Placid, 74-36. Four Red Devils reached double figures in points, while no Green Dragon had more than eight. Trivia Time there tonight that can't be cor- rected," Ashley said. "We are young and are going to get bet- ter. The little mistakes can be corrected easily. "We got off to a slow start, but in a way I don't mind because our defense set the pace. But we've got to get more pressure on offense, get more creative, start passing and shooting. I think we gave a pretty good accounting, though the score doesn't indicate it." After Marshall's goal, Sebring kept up its strong defensive play, but it was only a matter of time before the Spartans started finding the net again.

PETERSBURG Sebring's aggressive defense wasn't enough against the supe- rior passing and shooting skills Lakewood Thursday night as the fourth-ranked Lady Spartans cruised to a 5-0 win in the first round of the Class 4A state playoffs. Michelle Marshall dribbled up the right side and sent a crossing shot past Sebring goal- keeper Rebekah Lakewood Secory to give Lakewood the only goal it would Sebring need in the 23rd minute of the game. Only the physical defen- sive play of the Lady Streaks, led by Jessica Bloemsma, Radhel Ashley and Kim Stewart, kept the game from getting completely out of hand as Sebring was obviously over- matched against the 14-1-3 Spartans. Sebring head coach Steve Ashley didn't like losing, but was proud of his Streaks for their effort and their successful season.

College Baseball SFCC strong in home opener BY JOHN RITTER News-Sun Correspondent AVON PARK Returning from a four-game road trip to start the season, the South Florida Community College Panthers converted just about every opportunity they had in their home opener Wednesday night. Eight of the nine SFCC starters reached base on the night six of them with hits - on their way to a 13-0 handling of the St. Johns River Community College Vikings. Jimmy Miles led the way for SFCC, going 4 for 4 with two runs scored and three RBIs, part of his team's 15-hit per- formance. "The guys played very well tonight," said SFCC head coach Rick Hitt. "This is the first game we've played here this year and we pitched very well. 'I'll take nine goose eggs every day of the week. "We faced two left-han- SFCC ders tonight. We've been j| having difficulties when we 3 saw lefties, but we work on St. Johns it all the time and tonight the guys did a really good job of executing." Up Next The Panthers' offensive Panthers at, barrage was highlighted by St. Petersburg a two-run homer by Jesse on Saturday Litsch in the second inning as SFCC improved to 3-2 on the season. "Jimmy Miles got us going," Hitt said. "He led off the game with a walk and got on base and the running game began. Our guys are good at that type of game. We play it well, we practice it, we preach it and they gave us the chance to run that kind of offense so we usually do a pretty good job of doing it. "After that, the momentum kept carry- ing over and guys kept making good plays. Players make plays and coaches make calls, so all the credit goes to those guys." Wednesday was also the debut of fresh- man right-hander Chris Mester out of Orlando, and things went pretty much to plan as he walked none and struck out five in six innings of shutout baseball. "It was Mester's first time up and he's kind of in the five-hole (No. 5 starter).

Do the Eagles? By BARRY WILNER Associated Press JACKSONVILLE With the game on the lne, the New England Patriots hardly lack for clutch players Tom Brady, Adam Vinatieri, Rodney Harrison. With the game on the line, no one is sure if the Philadelphia Eagles have the kind of performers who could lift them past the defending champions in Sunday's Super Bowl. Though Philly's track record before this year wasn't very promising three straight NFC championship game flops - the Eagles insist past failures were erased when they finally won the confer- ence title. They'd better be correct, because the Patriots simply don't get stressed out, particularly in the Super Bowl, which they've won two of the last three sea- sons. "We haven't been to the Super Bowl, but we're battle-tested," said All-Pro safety Brian Dawkins, the leader of a defense that includes one starter who has played in the big game end Jevon Kearse with Tennessee in 2000. "We've been tested in championship games. We feel pressure year after year and we know how to win in those situa- tions." They hadn't won in crucial situations, though, until beating Atlanta to avoid becoming the first franchise to lose four straight NFC title games. The Patriots have won eight consecutive postseason games with Brady at quarterback and Bill Belichick as coach, and they are list- ed as seven-point favorites over Philadelphia. "I don't feel we're at a disadvantage," coach Andy Reid said. "They go in and think they are as good as anybody in the NFL, but they understand they have to prove it every Sunday." Especially this Sunday, against a team on the verge of being considered a dynasty. Not only are there questions about how the Eagles might perform on such a stage, but there are no questions about how the Patriots will deal with it. They've already successfully displayed their steely nerves and skills under the burning spotlight twice. Which presents Philadelphia with yet another challenge: treating the Patriots with too much respect. If that happens, they're beaten before they take the Alltel Stadium field, and Vinatieri won't need to match his two, last-second, Super Bowl-winning kicks. Nor will Brady have to stage any late heroics. Matters will be decided much earlier. McNabb, echoing Reid's statement, basically told Philly fans not to worry. See CLUTCH, Page 4B DOvaa.. NEWS-SUN + SEBRING, FLA. College Softball Panthers to debut on road Saturday By SCOTT DRESSEL Sports Editor AVON PARK Carlos Falla has been working toward Saturday for well over a year. Saturday, however, is when his real work will start. Falla, the South Florida Community College softball coach, will take his team to a tournament in Clearwater over the weekend to play the first games in program history, and the coach said he's a lot more anxious about the historic event than his players seem to be. Of course, the players didn't get on board until this past fall, long ,. after Falla had , started working , on building a e Panthers' program from first home scratch. scratch. game is set "They're tak- for Tuesday ing it a lot better at 2 p.m. than I am," Falla said. "I'm trying to find some- thing in practice to keep them entertained, keep them laugh- ing and staying loose, so I'm the only one that's nervous." The Lady Panthers open their season against Central Florida Community College at 1 p.m. on Saturday, the first of three games that day, followed by two more on Sunday.

News-Sun, Friday, February 4, 2005 SFCC Continued from 1B We really haven't lined (the pitchers) up, but he's in the five-hole and pitched very well, I thought, with a lot of confi- dence," Hitt said. "He pitched out of three jams, I thought, with runners on base and did a good job. And once again, we played pretty good defense behind him." After Mester sat the Vikings down in order in the top of the first, SFCC went to work on Viking starter Cody Whitlock. Leadoff batter Miles reached on a walk and took second on a passed ball. Dwayne Bailey fol- lowed with a single to drive home the first run of the game. The Panthers then got a little fundamental with a Litsch hit- and-run to move Bailey to third. "We work on that all the time and when you're able to exe- cute it and when you see it finally come together, it's a real pretty thing to watch," Hitt said of the hit-and-run. Bailey then trotted home from third on a wild pitch. Later in the inning, a Mike Yates grounder to the right side was muffed allowing Litsch to make it a 3-0 game. Mester lost his bid for a per- fect game, though, in the top of the second when Jared Huggett led off with a tweener over Bailey's head at short. But the Vikings didn't make much of it when two grounders and a fly- out ended the inning. Whitlock wasn't so lucky in his share of the second. Marcos Causey grounded a single up the middle to start the frame and a Carlos Hemandez bunt was thrown into center field to put two men on. Miles followed with a long double to bring home Causey and a wild pitch opened the door for Hemandez C-) CD C-, CD Cl) CD CO = go CD CD = CD CD LIIl 5;.,. ~ 'i : i . SCOTT DRESSEL/News-Sun SFCC freshman Chris Mester walked none and struck out fve in six innings in his college debut. to trot in with another run. Miles was later called out on runner interference during a Bailky line drive before Litsch finally unloaded on one, lacing a breaking ball out of the park down the left-field line to make it 7-0. Things continued to get bet- ter in the fifth inning when Yates walked and catcher Ralph STREAKS Continued from 1B Loughry was trailing to pick up the rebound and score in the 34th minute for a 2-0 Spartan lead that stood until halftime after Lakewood's forwards bounced shots off the crossbar and Secory saved a sure goal with a dive and a roll. Lakewood outshot Sebring 6-0 in the opening half. Kelli Haemmiemann put home ,a rebound in the 51st minute to make it 3-0 and LPHS Continued from 1B up Cesar Acevedo for the first Frostproof goal, prolific Frostproof striker Michael Alvarado followed quickly with another goal and the Bulldogs' defense took control from there. ''The key was our defense," Masters said. "I was very impressed with the speed in the backs, but also their outside backs. They have a whole lot of composure on the ball," Virkler said. Aside from a Carlos Chavarrin goal in the 46th minute off an .assist from Ricardo Gil, Frostproof goal- keeper Jaedea Gildin made the lead stand up from there. Sierra reached on an error. Causey followed with a double to the wall in left-center to bring home Yates and Sierra came in on a Hernandez sacri- fice fly. Miles and Litsch added RBIs to make it 11-0 and Miles and Bailey teamed up in the bottom of the sixth with bases-loaded singles to make it 13-0. Harms followed with an unas- sisted goal from the left side five minutes later. Marshall then picked up her second goal when Secory came out of the net and the ball got past her to close out the scoring in the 62nd minute. Melissa Acosta had a good shot on goal with 14 minutes remaining for Sebring's lone scoring threat of the night, but goalkeeper Sarah Curran was in perfect position to stop the shot and keep the Lady Streaks off the scoreboard. "I've got a solid goalie back there who directs the traffic real well," Masters said. "He had a really good game." Alvarado added the clincher in the 65th minute, heading the ball into the net off an assist from Emmanuel Elicerco to give Frostproof (11-1-3) a win Masters wasn't sure his team could get, considering its health. "I was really concerned about tonight's game because we had six of them who had the flu or were getting over the flu," he said. Lake Placid had its own medical woes as Nathan Thompson went down with an injury in the 13th minute, fur- ther hampering the- Dragons' comeback effort. % m a o% w_____ *- 0 Copyriate atLerial Syndi ca eTe ontent Available from Commercial News Provide DEBUT Continued from 1B the diamond in a game that counts. "I'm just looking to play someone other than ourselves and other than the fall when the games don't matter and you're just moving people in and out," Falla said. "We need to find a set line- up and then see what we need to work on." Right-hander Christina Morrow, who also started the first fall exhibition- game, will get the honor of throwing the first pitch in Panther histo- ry, Falla said. "She's earned it with everything she's done and her work ethic and the type of player she is. She's earned the start." While winning a few games this weekend would be nice, Falla said the main goal is just to "get better," which is why Saturday's games will be used more like a fall game than a regular-sea- son contest. "We're going to play those three games Saturday and then (assistant) coach Amy (Williams) and I will sit down and figure what we want to run as our first rotation and play them most of the time on Sunday," Falla said. The Panthers have another big day on Tuesday, when they host Santa Fe Community College in the first game on Panther Field. The doublehead- er (two seven-inning games) will begin at 2 p.m. Coaching carousel one wild ride If you're a basketball player and you know who your coach is, consia r yourself lucky. Phil J ckson was the coach of the Lakers, then he wasn't, and now he might be again soon. Ashley McElhiney was the coach of the ABA's Nashville Rhythm, then she wasn't, and now she might be again. Then again, she might never have not been the coach, anyway. Confused? Keep reading. It could just as easily be inferred that Kobe Bryant is the coach of the Lakers, con- sidering his ego wields enough power to fill that role, along with general manager, owner and Grand and Almighty Poobah. So when Bryant said he would "roll" with a Jackson return, it opened the door, if only by a crack, to the resur- rection of the triangle offense. If Jackson does return to replace Rudy Tomjanovich, who resigned Wednesday after already having ceded the bench to interim coach Frank Hamblen, he may find himself thinking, "Hey, this was a lot easier when the greatest center of our generation played here." Matt Freije will never be mistaken for Shaquille O'Neal, but presumptive Nashville Rhythm coach Ashley McElhiney will be without the one-time Vanderbilt and Rhythm star when/if she returns/continues to coach her team. Freije's tenure with the SRhythm is the genesis of all the uncertainty, and the strangest story yet to come out of the new American Basketball Association, one that would rival those from the original famously raucous ABA of the 1970s. The team made news before even playing a game when it hired the 23-year-old McElhiney to become its head rsI coach, making her the first S female ever to coach a men's S1 Professional team. It then signed hometown hero Freije to a two-game contract that ended after Saturday's win over the Kansas City Knights. Yet co-owner Sally Anthony wished it had expired sooner, and after McElhiney refused to bench her most talented player, Anthony stormed the court and "fired" the coach before being restrained by police in a much- publicized spectacle. But that was just the begin- TIME OUT Chuck Myron ning. McElhiney finished coach- ing the game Saturday and was still listed as head coach on the team's Web site days after the fracas, but since has said she's unsure whether she wants to return to the team after the "firing" or not. If only all pink slips came with such an option. At the root of the confusion here is Anthony's bizarre behavior and double talk. For instance, she told The (Nashville) City Paper that a trip to the hospital on Sunday was because a dog bit her. She told The Tennessean the same hospital visit was because she "tripped. on some stairs." The Tennessean then discov- ered evidence suggesting it wasn't stairs she tripped on. A tape of a 911 call revealed that a woman who at the very least claims to be Anthony's sister-in-law reported that Anthony was in the midst of a possible drug overdose and exhibiting signs of a suicide attempt. The good folks at The Tennessean then dutifully went to the downtown apartment from which the call originated and where Anthony's mother, Kathy Schroeder, answered the door. Her explanation? It was Anthony's bad back, and all other assertions were categori- cally false. Never mind Anthony's your- owner-or-your-coach ultima- tum to the players after the game on Saturday, one she later denied. Never mind the fact the Rhythm's next game is scheduled for McElhiney's home town. Never mind that Anthony is a fledgling singer currently promoting a CD enti- tled "Vent." Never mind that as of Thursday afternoon, the Rhythm's Web site read only "temporarily under construc- tion." Most mind-boggling about this week in basketball is that it is more ludicrous than the entire Philadelphia Eagles receiving corps put together.

Years ago when she was only 12 years old, looking at him gave her a nauseating feeling of disgust in the pit of her stomach. The victim, who is now more than 30 years old, recalled that she was return- ing home from school that fateful day. The hot summer sun parched her throat dry. She stopped for a glass of water at the home of a fami- ly friend, when the 17-year- old son pounced on her like a hungry beast and savagely raped her. He didn't consider the act cruel, but instead blamed her for the act as he told her that she asked for it by wearing a short skirt. She said at the time of the incident, "I felt so dirty ... so filthy ... so unclean as I scrubbed repeatedly in an effort to wash away what had happened." She said she never told her mother because she was handling issues of her own, that of an abusive marriage. Her moth- er, she said, would not have been able to handle the dis- closure of a rape. So she kept the "dirty secret" to herself. Soon after the rape !!,e perpetrators left the com- munity. Now after all these years, she sees him. He acts as if they are best friends walking over with outstretched hands as if to embrace her. She avoided the hug, casually saying hello and continued walking. As she walked away, he shouted, "Can we go out for a drink some- time?" "No!" was her response as she continued walking with- out looking back. The story just doesn't end there. About a year later, she got news that he was arrest- ed in another state, tried and sentenced to prison for child molestation. According to the follow- ing information provided by the Bureau of Justice Statistics: Statistics revealed more than 55 percent of all drug addicts were sexually abused as children. A total of 96 percent of prostitutes were victims of child sexual abuse. A total of 80 percent of runaways attributed child abuse as a major factor for their decision.

Prior to the Lake Placid Garden Club's fashion show, club members Jeanne Renton (at left, standing left) and Evelyn Hays, both of Lake Placid, display a shaw and other items at the opportunity table. Fashion show raises funds for local youth By CINDY MARSHALL Night/Weekend Editor LAKE PLACID The 11th annual fashion lunch- eon show Jan. 22 hosted by the Lake Placid Garden Club was a tremendous success. There were more than 240 people in attendance at the show at the American Legion Hall. The club raised more than $2,200 to go toward its scholarship fund. According to fashion show chairwoman Lorraine Tzoucalis of Lake Placid, this year's show was better than last year. "This is the most we have ever made," Tzoucalis said. "Although it was a huge undertaking and scary at times, it was a labor of love, and most rewarding to U- .- see how beautifully everything turned out and what a wonderful time everyone had," Tzoucalis said. Club president Joyce Christopher of Sebring said the proceeds are used to help the local youth continue their education and to send some to camps. "A $1,000 scholarship is given to a high school student in their last year and then we give a $500 continuing scholarship to someone who got a $1,000 scholarship in the previous year who may need addi- tional funds," Christopher said. The club also sends local youth to Camp Wekiva, a camp in Florida sponsored by the Federation of Garden Cluhb and funds are used to pay for scholar- ships to Archbold Biological Station in Lake Placid. The group has ued Ivs funds and manpower to landscape around the Lake Placid Library and three islands on Main Street that the club sponsors. This year's theme for the fashion show was "My Fair Ladies." Members and guests enjoyed an after- noon of great food, fun fashions and chances for numerous door prizes. During intermission the LPGC Entourage, consist- ing of Peggy Alexander, Paula Kincaid, Sue Rood and Patsy Stamm, entertained with a fashion display of crazy outfits. A total of 17 garden club members modeled fash- ions provided by Lake Placid the merchants of Bealls Outlet, Loie's, Tropical Island, Lake Placid Feed & Western Wear; and in Sebring the merchants were from The Plum Tree, Steve & Company and Sue's Cubby Hole. Lee Baldwin was the moderator for the fashion show. Luise Andrea was the chairperson of the deco- rating committee. The lunch was catered by The Depot of Avon Park. John and Polly Moody of Lake Placid (at left) model western wear during the fashion show. They recently celebrated their 65th wed- ding anniversary. John also chairs ciyic beautification around Lake Placid. He is a wealth of informa- tion regarding Florida plants and fauna, which he willingly shares with the all other club members. INSIDE Religion 3C Dear Abby 2C Movie reviews 2C 1.- .- News-Sun, Friday, February 4, 2005 DIVERSIONS 'Sideways' takes languid trip through life Multiple award winner ultimately fails to satisfy By SHARON JONES News-Sun Now that Highlands County residents can finally get a gander at the much acclaimed "Sideways," does it live up to the hype? The answer: Well, sort of. It's an inter- esting movie, despite the languid plot, and it has something to say about morals and ethics even if it doesn't go far enough. With "Sideways" director Andrew Payne of "About Schmidt" returns to the theme of wandering, unsatisfied men as he adapts another novel for the screen. Miles (Paul Giamatti) and Jack (Thomas Haden Church)- younger versions of Jack Nicholson's Warren Schmidt haven't lived long enough to realize how much of their lives they are wasting. A leisurely trip through California's wine country gives them a wake-up call, and Miles at least comes to some awareness that he is sleepwalking to nowhere. In the end, though, "Sideways" becomes a standard romance that promotes the idea that a good woman can solve all of a man's problems. Let me assure you: These men have some problems no woman can solve. The former college buddies have taken different turns in life. Miles is a high school English teacher and struggling author who has recently been divorced. Jack is a wom- anizing one-time soap opera star who is getting married late in life. The trig is sup- 'SIDEWAYS' Director: Alexander Payne Writer: Rex Pickett; based on the novel by Jim Taylor Cast: Paul Giamatti (Miles), Thomas Haden Church (Jack), Virginia Madsen (Maya), Sandra Oh (Stephanie) and Missy Doty (Cammi)' Released by: Fox Searchlight Pictures Running time: 2 hours, 3 minutes Rated: R for language, some strong sexual content anl nudity Now Playing: Carmike Cinema 8 in Lakeshore Mall, Sebing; 471-1179 posed to be his last bachelor fling before Jack makes a lifetime commitment to one woman. Miles has the whole trip planned, and it all revolves around him and his fantically, obsessive interest in wine. Jack goes with the flow, but he soon makes it clear that he has one goal in mind seducing another woman before his marriage. When the guys meet up with two women the radiant, thoughtful waitress Maya (Virginia Madsen) and the rambunctious, free-spirit- ed Stephanie (Sandra Oh) the pleasant friendship turns topsy-turvy. The clever framework of "Sideways" is the way wine becomes a metaphor for the changing relationship between Miles and Jack and how these two guys are living their lives. Miles wanders from winery to winery, but his own life is unsettled. Even though he's a neurotic expert in wine, he can't bring himself to pop the cork in his own life, so to speak, and take the risks that may lead him to something better. Jack, the dabbler, likes everything and the next thing because he doesn't have the ability to dis- tinguish quality in any of the wines or in people or life experiences for that matter. "Sideways" chronicles their day-to-day adventures like a travel diary. Miles and Jack have their ups and downs drinking wines that are good and bad and sharing moments when they seem to be strangers and then seem to understand each other with cutting accuracy. In its travels, "Sideways" has an authen- tic quality as it finds the beautiful and the ordinary in wine country. In some ways, it's the perfect movie for couch potatoes a mini-vacation without leaving the theater. Although the plot is slow and the story not entirely satisfying, the cast salvages the film to some degree. Paul Giamatti, a dar- ling of independent film, plays another dis- gruntled, obsessive oddball who has to watch his friend get all the girls. Thomas Haden Church is surprisingly subtle as a charming hedonist and cunning manipula- tor who may be smarter than he lets on. Sardonic, sad and eventually hopeful, "Sideways" finds humanity in its comedy and its drama, but the ending is a bit woozy. Until that point, this movie is honest, true and slightly pessimistic, and that is under- cut when it finally goes for the kind of end- ing that only happens in the movies.

Norm and Joy Phillips embarked on a traveling min- istry 28 years ago. After five years of part-time service, he resigned his position as a salesman with Johnson and Johnson and she left her teaching career to embark on full-time ministry. Today, one of their three daughters, they are joined by their daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren. The group per- forms music and ministers with puppets. There is a wisdom in this world. When God created Adam on the sixth day, ie endowed him with wisdom to conduct his earthly affairs. He gave him strength, intelligence, imagi- nation, and compe- tence to dominate the world and its resources. This is the wisdom that discov- ers how to build a sturdy house or plant a successful garden or to make a good investment. A Moi WITH Rev. Ri Fyf In itself this wisdom is a mar- velous gift of God to man. Nevertheless, it is a limited blessing, which will disappear in the smoke of Judgment Day together with all it has accom- plished. Besides this, when sin entered into the world, it crip- pled and disfigured our poor wisdom to the point that it has become foolishness in the eyes of God. People may be amazed by the "wisdom" of the philoso- phers, the scholars, and the great religious thinkers vho claim to be able to find God and his will apart from the Bible; but God sees them and all their followers as blind men heading into the same ditch. In order to open our eyes and to rescue us from our own wis- dom, God determined to "destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frus- trate" (1 Corinthians 1:19). "Where is the wise man?" Paul Sasks, "Where is the Scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wis- dom of the world? MENT For since in the wis- dom of God the uOD world through its wisdom did not know chard him, God was fe pleased through the S foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe." (1 Corinthians 1:20-21) Knowing then the frailty of man, and of human wisdom, Paul warns us not to be "con- ceited." "Do not be conceited." Paul writes in Romans 12:16.He means to teach us not to rely on our earthly abilities and achievements after the fashion of those who are with- out Christ. We need this admo- nition because of our sinful flesh, which only wants to pile up wealth and honor for itself and wants to make itself com- fortable-no matter what the cost may be to others. Paul is telling us to beware of conceit and self-satisfaction, which are the very opposite of Christian love. The wisdom of God is revealed to us in Christ, who did not come to satisfy or to exalt himself, but to humble himself for us and to offer him- self as a sacrifice for our sins. And this love of Christ con- strains us to put our earthly wis- dom to work, not only for our- selves, but especially for the benefit of all the saints and of our fellow man. Many in the world think they are wise. Many in the world think they have an effective way to reach God. They lay down rules and regulations for which we must follow if we are to be worthy of God's grace. But the word of God says, "These are all destined to perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings. Such regulations have the appearance of wis- dom...but they lack any value in restraining sensual indul- gence." (Colossians 2:22,23) God's wisdom comes through faith in Jesus Christ. He is our savior. So now do as the apostle Paul teaches and become wise-"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom." (Colossians 3:16) Only when our lives are seeking God and his salvation through Jesus Christ do we become wise as God intended. The Rev. Richard FlIffe is a pastor with New Life Evangelical Lutheran Church, 3725 Hammock Road, Sebring. He can be reached at 385-2293 or 385-5793 or by e- mail at rfyffel @juno.com.
