One mistaken lead at 10-11 a.m. that day was 830 Bay St., the home of Highlands County American Red Cross Service Center Director Art Harriman. No one entered or searched his house that day, Benton said. He was- n't home when officers arrived, but his elderly mother, teenage nieces, brother, sister-in-law and a guest were there.

SHUTT News-Sun LAKE PLACID As fire- fighters achieved 90 percent containment of the 181-acre Highlands Hammock State Park fire Wednesday, eight arson fires were set in Placid Lakes. The park fire was fully con- tained Thursday, Elder said, explaining that it had burned its way to the fire lines cut by Florida Department of Forestry. Wednesday evening's rain - one-tenth of an inch was of little help, he said. "They all started essentially at the same time," Tim Elder, supervisor, said while dis- Foley followers cussing the intentionally-set wildfires south of Lake Placid. "It was pretty obvious." About 40 acres were destroyed in the eight fires, all set late Wednesday afternoon and under control later that evening with the help of five bulldozers cutting fire breaks, a helicopter with a "Bambi Bag" and an airplane with an internal water tank. Elder wouldn't discuss how the fires were ignited, not want- ing to tip his hat to the suspect or suspects. No homes were damaged and nobody was injured. Firefighters continued bat- tling a smaller fire Thursday off of Tubbs Ranch Road, where they were trying to protect sev- eral nearby homes. "Trees are starting to fall, making it dangerous for our crews," Elder said. "Because it's been so dry, the fire burns deep, down to the roots." He said the two-acre fire should be fully contained today. Lightning during Sunday's. thunderstorm sparked the Hammock Park fire, Elder said, correcting an earlier report that it began Saturday. "Saturday and Sunday kinda' SKATARA SIMMONS/News-Sun, " As a legal immigrant, Margaret Gleave, of Lake Placid, questions U.S. Representative Mark Foley about immigration laws Thursday evening during a meet and greet event at the Kenilworth Lodge in Sebring. Gleave said Foley is 'very responsive' and has always taken the time to answer her questions. Sebring Hills residents balk at C.R. 635 alternatives By PHIL ATTINGER News-Sun SEBRING Sebring Hills residents said Wednesday night' that they don't want County Road 635 through their homes any more than Golf Hammock residents do. They want less traffic, not more, which they would get if the county extends C.R. 635 through their area to connect State Roads 66 and 64. Nancy Wood said her com- munity already has "freeways" on Crane Street, Heron Street, and other streets that connect to Thunderbird Road, Hammock Road and U.S. 27. Temper flared when Sam Dunn asked for County Com- missioner Andrew Jackson's pledge to get commissioner to vote to keep the road out of Sebring Hills, the same way they did for Golf Hammock. "I said several times I don't think it's practical to take it through Sebring Hills either," Jackson said amidst jeers from residents that the county just wants to avoid litigation from more affluent homeowners. Development Services Director Jim Polatty said he didn'treally consider three pos- sible routes through Sebring Hills as "alternatives," just "different routes" planners are studying, because county com- missioners asked them to do it. "Going through your neigh- borhood, I don't think is a good idea at all," Polatty said. Right now, the county can't afford the $280 million of road needs on its highest-priority long range transportation plan. In 20 years, Polatty said, the county will be in "dire straits" with traffic from building per- mits in existing platted subdivi- sions, especially Sun 'N Lake of Sebring Improvement District, just north of Sebring Hills. Without parallel roads; Polatty said traffic flow on U.S. 27 will drop and people will wait through two or more traffic lights.cycles. Trading land The best alternative, he said, is a mile-long section through the eastern edge of Highlands Hammock State Park. Unless the county can get the land, the road can't go there. - Before asking the Division of State Lands or Gov. Jeb Bush and the Florida Cabinet to trade that land, the county needs to .show it has looked at all possi- bilities. One trade may include clos- ing. Hammock Road through the park and buying as much as 10 acres to replace each acre used by the road. Environmen- talists won't give up conserva- tion land, Polatty said, because of the precedent it would set. History In the 1960s and 1970s, sev- eral subdivisions got platted without provision for improved roads. "We're playing catch up for those decisions," Polatty said. Extending C.R; 635 was just blurred together," he said, explaining his error. Elder has had one day off since last Friday, and like other firefighters paid and volun- teers throughout the county - worked through Memorial Day. "Typically, that's how it goes this time of year," Elder said. "We're getting pretty close to our summer rain pattern, when fires usually peak with the lightning activity. But, now we're having a little bit of unwanted help." Those with information regarding the arsons are encour- S-aged to call the .Arson 'Alert News-Sun AVON PARK -' Kids will be lining up at the door of the Avon Park Recreation Center Monday as the summer pro- gram kicks off. SThe'summer program is-open for children ages 6-12. It will start Monday and continue until July 28. It runs from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Frid.ai every week.

When County Adminis- trator Carl Cool negotiated the easement for Florida Power poles in the 1970s, .he set two lines apart with room between them for a road. When -he got to Golf Hammock, however, he com- promised and set them, in the same line. There's no right of way between the subdivision and the state park. It's either private or park land. Ideas People suggested reducing truck traffic on U.S. 27 or mak- ing it a one-way pair with the Sebring Parkway. Polatty said the' county can't control traffic flow on federal roads. Steve Jones, resident and cyclist, suggested the county seriously consider a route snaking through the undevel- oped western Sebring Hills area with both a road and bike paths to provide transportation and attract visiting cyclists. Polatty said most roads have to be built with bike paths on the shoulders. Noswe. cl iLry loalcmpte ocor o hersce Hotline, (800) 342-5869.

Driver crushed by car after being thrown from vehicle News-Sun A 23-year-old Lake Placid woman is listed in serious condition after being ejected and then pinned by her vehicle in a Thursday afternoon wreck. According to reports by Trooper Mark P. Marcus of the Florida Highway Patrol, the acci- dent occurred around -12:50 Thursday afternoon. near the intersection of U.S. 27 and Lake Frances Drive north of Lake Placid. Frank J. Doldmont, 49, of Peterborough, Ontario was traveling north on the highway in the outside lane when he crossed into the inside lane directly in the path of Jennifer L. Gazull, 23, of Lake Placid.

She continued onto the east should and overturned in a citrus grove. Gazull, who was ejected from the vehicle and not wearing a safety belt, was pinned by her 1994 Jeep when it finally came to rest. The Lake Placid Volunteer FireDepartment, two Highlands County ambulances, and the Highlands County rescue unit responded to the scene to render aid and free the trapped victim. After being freed, Gazull was flown by Aeromed to Tampa General Hospital where she is listed in serious condition. Dbldmont, after initially stopping at the scene left the accident driving northbound, but was located by FHP and returned to the crash scene. He has been charged with improper lan change and failure to give information.

PHILRINE AUCION Sheriff's deputies nab one suspect from Tuesday burglary By ELAINE SEDLOCK News-Sun SEBRING Duffer's Sports Grille has had two burglaries in less than two weeks. The establishment was burglarized on Sunday, May 21, and the alarm sounded again at 4:13 a.m. Tuesday, when a brick sailed through the window of the front door. In the first incident, Deputy J. Clemmons responded to an alarm complaint at 5:35 a.m. According to his arrest report, he noticed that wires, were hanging from a panel which had been removed from the front section of an overhang attached to the building. After checking the front door and finding it secure, Clemmons walked around the business and found an open door on the north side. Pry marks indicated that the door had been opened by force. Deputy J.' Stefner came to assist Clemmons, and the two entered the door, clearing the kitchen .and bar area. Clemmons noted that the cash registers behind the bar had not been touched. Hearing noise coming f.ronm the northwest side of the building,- the two approached the clerk's ofttice door, which was ROT cracked, according to the report. Noise was heard from behind the door, so Stefner pushed it open. They then saw Richard Roth, 36, of Okeechobee, stuffing money into a money bag. SRoth then allegedly threw the bag at the deputies, striking bdth of them.. In spite of orders to lay on the ground, Roth refused. Clemmons even tried to con- vince him to obey by grabbing his arm; but it took a strike to his rib cage by Stefner's Mag-light to prompt Roth's surrender. Roth was then handcuffed and the hand- cuff's were double locked, the report said. Inside the office, Clemmons noticed a significant amount of money on the floor. Captain Paul Blackman said that Roth had attempted to outsmart the facility's security system. Roth was booked into the Highlands County Jail on charges of burglary of a business (with battery), two charges of bat- tery on a law enforcement officer, resisting arrest with violence, and grand theft. He was in jail at the time of the brick throwing incident, clearly eliminating him as a suspect. Blackman said that at the time it is unknown whether or" not anything was stolen or tampered with Tuesday. No one was found in the building and nothing has been reported missing. "Right now the incident is only consid- ered criminal mischief or attempted burgla- ry because we can't tell. The only way it would be upgraded to burglary would be if something turns up missing in their inven- tory," Blackman said. When asked whether or not it is common for an individual to burglarize a building single-handedly, Blackman said that it depends. "A lot of times when they do a 'smash and grab' they have an accomplice so they can have a getaway car. It's all about being fast, getting in and getting out, because they know the alartn will go off," he explained. "(Roth) was trying to fill the bag with everything he could get because he thought he had disabled the alarm .system. They are totally different MOs (mode of operation)."

In fact, General Manager Marvin Fischer said only one child was enrolled. As of Thursday, however, he had managed to get 35-40 kids enrolled in the program by expanding the number of stu- dents the district will pay for, and committing district funds to make it happen. It increased the district's commitment to the program from $1,038.53 to $14,400. Fischer told the News-Sun that when he reported the pro- gram had low turnout, Bob Severino, president of the board of supervisors, was the only supervisor who gave him any instruction. Severino told him having a summer program was important and to do what he needed to make it happen. At the time, several children had scholarships in the works, but hadn't completed paper- work, for one reason or another. The deadline to apply was today Friday. The. eight- week program starts Monday at The Candlelight Restaurant and will be run by the Boys & Girls Club of Highlands County. Fischer said Thursday that the program will go off-site to the recreation area by the com- munity center, for football games and expects that swim- ming sessions will operate in shifts at the pool at- the Candlelight. During his, report to the board, Fischer blamed the orig- inal low turnout on late adver- tising. He told the vNeis.Sr a that the increased funds were only for this year's' circum- stances, not something to do every year.

If any extra money was going to be spent, she assumed that would go for advertising, not to pay for the whole thing. She doesn't approve of put- ting more money into the pro- gram without board approval. "It's a disgrace," she said. "I don't want to be associated with it." The cost per child was $45 per week, or $360 for the full program. On April 28, the board voted to fund the summer pro- gram at 10 percent or up to $4,250 to cover any deficit between what the program would collect and what it would cost. Since that time, she cannot recall the board having voted to increase that amount. If there was such a need for the program that the district is willing to pay for the whole thing, more parents would have signed their children up, she said. There are other needs in the district for those funds, she said. The new part-time code enforcement officer is having to undergo training to get quali- .fied for the job, she said, and Unit 2 in the district needs new drainage. She said people were body-surfing down the street after hurricanes last year. Fischer said, normally, such an increase in funding would have needed board approval.

Donna Peavey said that she read about the federation's goal to have 70,000 certified sites by its 70th anniversary, in May 2006, through her son's "Ranger Rick" subscription. "Attracting birds, squirrels and wildlife has always been something I've enjoyed," she said. When she married her hus- band a year ago and moved here. from Kansas, she said that his yard was already heavily land- scaped. "He was kind enough to allow me to start planting flow- ers," she said. Though the yard was already a popular hangout for many birds and other animals, the 10 feeders that have been added have increased the number and variety significantly. Mary Burnette, spokesperson for the federation, explained that any site can become certi- fied by meeting certain criteria. These include food, water, shel- ter, and a place to raise young. When she saw the criteria, Donna Peavey said that she realized that they ,already seemed to have what it took, so she applied. ELAINE SEDLOCK/News-Sun Joshua Jantz, 6, of Avon Park, places nuts into a feeder in his yard Thursday. His yard has been certified by the National Wildlife Federation as an official wildlife habitat. "It was just a fun thing to do," she said. Now, not only does the fami- ly enjoy the sounds of birds and animals regularly and the con- stant wildlife activity they see from day to day, their yard is now one of over two dozen cer- tified. wildlife habitats in Highlands County.

Truancy is less a small step in a child's rite of passage than the first step toward big trouble and adults are begin- truants as a social worker with. ning to notice. Wednesday morning mem- bers of the Children's Service Council were asked to enlist in the war against truancy in Highlands County schools. Kathy Main, who works with the school district's department of student services, put the issue before the council, saying she needed their help. "Truancy is the single most important indicator leading to juvenile delinquency," she said, APHS ready to fight By CHRISTOPHER TUFFLEY News-Sun AVON PARK Stu Guthrie, the principal at Avon Park High School doesn't have to be told school truancy is a problem. Nearly a quarter of his students missed 21 or more days of school in 2004-2005. As assistant principal he dealt with absent students on a daily basis for seven years; as principal, he doesn't expect that to change. But that doesn't mean he's about to give up or even despair. In fact, he appears energized and ready to fight. He welcomes the Children's Service Council's push to find a better way to combat school truancy, but as veteran in that battle warns it will be a compli- cated war. "When you have to entice a kid into school you've got a problem," he said. "(Truancy) needs to be scrutinized very closely because it's a real Catch-22. "We get a lot of support from most of our parents, but unfor- tunately not from all. And some parents aren't to blame," he added, explaining that parents can drop off their at children at school, watch them enter the campus, only to find out later they never reached class. It means they avoided locked gates and teacher lookouts. A major stumbling block, he said, was in the written statute. By law parents may: only be held accountable for their chil- dren when those children are six to 16 years old. That means parents iiae no posser over teenagers of 17 and 18. the age of most high school Important issues juniors and seniors.

S, ATARA SINiMONSINe~u-Sun Town of Lake Placid Mayor Tom Katsanis addresses issues such as impact fees and code enforcement Thursday morning during the Lake Placid Merchant Association meeting in Lake Placid. HOMES Continued from 1A howze, issued May 18, had no address for him, according to the District Clerk's Office in Miami. Deputy U.S. Marshal Lynn Navitsky said, the lead described a house in that area with a certain make, model and color of car parked behind it. Harriman's house matched the description. Martha Anne Edenfield, Harriman's mother, said the house they actually wanted was another "red brick house near a church," near to The Palms of Sebring. Alicia Martin, 17, Harriman's niece, said she and other members of the family were sitting on the porch watch- ing police gather in the street, "like nosy neighbors." Then one of the officers popped around the corer of the house with a gun drawn and told them to put their hands up, she said. "We thought it was a joke, so we laughed. He said he wasn't playing, so we (put our hands up)," Martin said. "That's when I got scared." Officers told them not to move, and asked if Weberhowze lived in a second apartment in the house. Martin told them the two-story house is a single dwelling. Martin's grandmother kept calling for her or her aunt or uncle, "but none of us could move," she said. Officers, still surrounding the house with guns pulled uphol- stered, kept asking if Weberhowze lived around them, while Edenfield kept call- ing for them, Martin said. Finally, Martin's aunt was allowed to get Edenfield, with escort. After about an hour, Martin said officers realized the house they wanted was a couple of blocks away, so they left. "When they finally came to the conclusion that they had the wrong place, they just left," Harriman said. "I've got a pret- ty scared family." Martin was jittery that night and called in to her work to let them know shedwas not coming in, but was calm enough to go Saturday. "Everybody's fine now," she said. Schools receive funding on a per capital; basis. That 'means they don't get money when stu- dents aren't there. SAnd schools are gravely affected when students who are behind because of absences, even excused ones, don't do well on, the Florida Comprehensive .Assessment Test. Students who fall far behind in school %\ill more often give- up than make-up the work. In fact, latw enforcement officials have been warning for some- time that truancy is a stepping ;stone to delinquent and crimi- nal behavior. - As-early as 1996 Eileen Garry was writing in the Juvenile Justice Bulletin that, S"several studies have docu- mented the correlation between drug use and truancy," and '.that chronic absenteeism is the most powerful predictor of delin- quent behavior." No one was hurt, and nothing got broken. Navitsky, who got there after the initial contact, said no one stormed the house. Officers did use caution, she said. They had to verify the lead, and Weberhowze was alleged to have weapons. adding, "we've, got to address how we're going to deal with this problem." She explained this was because schools were shackled by past legislation. "The current law states that a student can miss up to 14 unex- cused days in a 90 calendar day window before the school may classify the student as being tru- ant," Main said. Essentially that means school days missed are measured on a regular calendar including the week-ends, so students can accumulate 45 unexcused absences before becoming tru- ant and it.is only then that schools and the courts have the authority to take action. Worse, a student may have 15 excused absences every ninety calendar days too. That means, somee students are mrussing to months or more of school a Near." Nlain said. The only \\ay to change this, she explained. \\as through leg- islati\e action, but the soonest it could be addressed would d be in the 2007 legislative session. That didn't mean the county should delai in planning its actions. In fact. Nlain said, the perfect time to plan is now. She told the council members LAMBERT c Continued from 1A school for his master's' degree.

The school has, the highest absentee rate in the county more:than 23 percent.of its students were absent, for 21 or, more days-in 2004-2005.

"I am requesting that a sub- committee of the (Children's Service Council and other inter- ested parties) be appointed to explore possible changes in tru- ancy legislation, and make rec- ommnendations back to the council and/or legislative dele- gation," Main said.

For example, Handley despaired that education was viewed in general as a punish-' ment not a benefit "Students. should be happy to be in school, but the whole society, says "Thank God its Friday' to them." "I don't know how the go%\- emor can think students can pass the FCAT with that number of absences." Gentry said.

PAGE 9A + FRIDAY, JUNE 2, 2006 NEWS-SUN + SEBRING, FLA. Special couple anticipate future in new home By ELAINE SEDLOCK News-Sun AVON PARK Bobby Talley, 51, has not been dealt an easy hand. .At the age of 4, he lost his sight. "I had meningitis," Talley said. ''I had already had measles, chickenpox, and all the other childhood diseases, so I was weak and that's why I caught it." The disease did more than rob Talley of his vision. "I had to learn how to do everything all over again," he said, "walking, talking, dress- ing myself everything." He has faced myriad difficul- ties with determination and a positive, can-do attitude. New blessings are now lining his horizon. He and his wife, Judy McCarter, 41, have qualified for a Habitat home arid are sched- uled for groundbreaking in September. Both have put ,in their "sweat equity" hours required for a Habitat home - and then some. Both continue to volunteer at the Habitat Home Store three to four days a week, about six hours a day, and help out when- ever they can, usually weekly, at the Humane Society of Highlands County. "We basically help with any- thing they need that we can do," McCarter said. At the Habitat Store', Talley polishes furniture, carries items to the second floor (with the assistance of McCarter), helps load and unload the delivery truck, and other various tasks - all with a sense of humor. Recently, he jokingly told some volunteers that he wanted to drive the delivery trick with one of them as his copilot. Current! residing in Pepper Tree \ tl.ige, of Avon Park, the couple is looking 'forward to having a home,of their own. t. -T -F -. iU, Ia r.t .N-., Judy McCarter (aboiei and Bobb) Talle. ha'e qualified for a Habitat lor HumanitI home. Taller is blind, hut is able to use a com- puter with the help of McCuarer and special sofruare. Bobb T[alle3 sits %ith a deaf shepherd pup. Brandon right i. at the Humane Society ol Highlands County "here he volunteers Being sightless, Tallek can't "alk the does. but he sits "ilh them for hours at a time, giving them much needed lo'e and comfort. "We're still looking for prop- erty," McCarter said. "We hope to have something close to io\ n because we have no transporta- tion." Getting accustomed to a new home will not be an overnight event for Tjlle. - "It takes time to get around and learn the place but I'll get the picture, of it in my mind," he said confidently. Another bright spot in Talle\ 's futui e is the seeing-eye dog he hopes get soon. "I had to retire Fargo. about a year ago because he had arthri- tis, hip-problems, his hearing 'as going. and he. had\ cataractss" he said. "He is always going to be my one arid only number one dog." Fargo, Talley said, is now liv- ihg in Lake,Placid: They have the opportunity to visit one another frequently. Talley also is hbpin, to launch his own "blind man pub- lishing company" with the help of his.wife. I've got about four or five disks full of his writings," McCarter' said. "Poems, short, stories, prayers, a little bit' of everything. I'm his proofreader and editor." Initially, when the 'couple 'looked into getting a Habitat home they said 'they %'.ere denied. Both were delighted. however, when they found out, in Lite Jjnuory that .tler somee discussion regarding their cir- cumstances, they were approved. "To have a home of our own will be v. :iderful.'"Talle\ sjid "Getting the news felt great." :Having -the home .will give, him peace of mind, "as he has been concerned about what . would happen to his wife if he wereto die ihule they were residing in subsidized housing. "Where I am now, my wife wouldn't be able to live (with- out me)," he said. T.Ile\ .nrd McCarter, explained that because they both have special needs and receive di ferent t pes of public assistance, they couldn't marry, each other in the traditional mtinner because the\ v.ould lose critical benefits. "We aren't married on paper," Talley said, "but in God's eyes we are, and that's all that counts." "He proposed to me the first day I met him," McCarter laughed. "I said, 'Hello, my name is Judy,' and he said, 'Hello my name is Bobby - will you marry me?'"i That was in 1995 when on a community transportation van. McCarter was being transported from Arcadia to South Florida Community College and Talley from his home in Avon Park to Ridge Area Arc where he was working. They were only together on the van for about 15 minutes twice a week. A week and a half later McCarter told him "yes," and in 1997 they exchanged vows. Their love and commitment to one another runs deep, and together they have overcome many obstacles. McCarter has had her share of challenges in life as well. Having lost both her, parents by the age of 11, she moved to Arcadia to live with an aunt and uncle. "In high school I didn't date because I had an elderly aunt and uncle with health problems, Bobby was the first man to real- ly respect and appreciate me," McCarter said. "We've had our rough times, but we worked them out." "I love Judy," Talley said. "She is beautiful." He explained ,what beauty means to. him by saying, "You've got an 'inner eye. That's what I see Judy and oth- ers with. You can be as ugly as a witch, but be beautiful in the way you treat me and other peo- ple, or just the opposite. Judy.is beautiful to me and that's hard to find." With their sh.ired \sion, ,efforts and LeneroLus spints, the t\lo look for'.a.rd tr-: a bright future together in their new home.

Available from Commercial News Providers" - -- - S-4. 4m - - a - --0P - . - e Turning the wild tame (enough) One day -last week, per my natural habit, I went outside mere moments before dawn, sat down in a lawn chair and set my coffee on the picnic table to free both hands for the coming morning attack. Per normal, a. cat came from the left and a dog from -the right, who in mid- yawn,, placed her head in my lap. In an effort not to hurt any- body's feelings, I make sure to have both hands free so that I can greet them at the same time. Salem, my daughter's tom- cat, hasn't had functioning genetic plumbing in years, so he hangs around the house, making a dark; silky center- piece;for the picnic table. He's a sweetheart, a fact that has not escaped the notice of a small tiger-striped female cat that has taken to living under the back porch and sharing Salem's din- ner bowl. He tolerates and accepts her, much as we would if she would give us the chance, but she is wild and harbors no affection for humans. The minute she see us, she runs, will even hiss at us if we happen upon her before she has ,a chance to escape. On this day,, though, she would begin to pay' the price for her aloof nature. I hadn't had my first sip of coffee when;I saw a small, dark form creep out from under the house and pass between the front wheels of my husband's truck,. disappearing into the deep shadows beneath it. "What was that?" I askdd the dog, who. pricked her ears briefly and then relaxed them.' "It's that crazy cat." Her eyes said, as I scratched her behind the ear. "Odd for. her to come out when there's a human out here, isn't it?" I asked. "She's sick." "How do you know?" "Look at her, are ya blind?" OK, maybe I imagined this entire conversation, but it seemed real enough to me. I am a firm believer that animals talk if you just know how to listen. And I did look at the cat, and when I thought back to the slow, lolling way she crossed the yard I knew in my heart that she was indeed, very sick. The little female stared back at me, as cautious as ever, but amazingly enough, allowed me to get within three feet of her before she moved away but not in her normal manner. She moved in fits in starts, rather than in her usual blurred streak of stripes, and sat down twice to rest before she'd made it half- dozen yards. It was then that I realized, based on physical evidence, that she hadn't been faithful to AFTER THOUGHTS C.J. Mouser Salem; she had obviously had trouble with a litter of kittens. "You know I can help you, if you'll give me a chance," I murmured, "Ihave medicine ... penicillin." She thanked me for m) kind offer by slipping under the porch without a look back. I warned the kids. It was the first day of summer break and I knew that they would spot her eventually, and I wanted. them to know in advance that she was not right. "Don't mess with her. I think she has an infection, but there's no telling what else she has and I don't want ya'll getting scratched or bitten." ,I should have known better. Apples don't fall far from the tree, and there was a time when I Would have risked being late for work to help that cat. I ' would have been on my hands and knees under the porch, and wouldn't hi\e rested until I caught her. After too many dis- appointments I have lost that inclination, and had immediate- ly come to the conclusion that she was what.she was; and by God, if I wasn't good enough to pet her, then I wasn't good enough to save her. That evening when I came in, from work I found a box with a rumpled towel inside it on the front porch. There was an empty bowl and saucer nearby, with trace evidence of food and milk in each. I tracked dowh the kids and listened to them describe the harrowing catch, the hissing and 'the indignant yowling and the subsequent force feeding and administra- tion of juvenile medical tech- nology. It was a blatant disregard for direct orders, but I didn't have the heart to fuss at them for not being able -to resist the opti- mistic nature of youth and the. desire to help. How do I know - that this is not the way it's meant to be? That when we grow older and our ideals begin to fade, that our children are not meant to step into our place and pick up where we left off, and if this is the case, who am I to argue with it? In my sixth-grade world history class, a Hispanic student in the back of the room raised his hand. Holding the history book opened to the unit on Mexican- American relations, I excused myself from the classroom discus- sion and made my way down a row of desks. I stood over a boy with dark hair and dark complexion WRIT CRA Ric Lilji pondering a word in the text, a Hispanic boy who, seemed to want to learn to read and speak English. When I got to his desk, his index finger was pointing to a word in the text. I said the word and he went on reading, while I, backed up and continued the discussion about the relation- ship between the United' Mexican States and the United States of America., We were discussing the exploration of the New World and the New World territorial claims of England, France and Spain; European nations that were trying to find an easier' route 'to the Orient sans the round-the-world sail Magellan had accomplished. The Spanish went south, the English went north, and the French explored the Mississippi River. About 200 years later, the French have their own prob- lems in France, the Spanish are enjoying springtime, the English are deciding who they will elect next time, and people from the United Mexico States are pouring into the .United States of America, 12 million, so far, by the most recent esti- Opinions and theories differ Editor: Again this fatal traffic acci- dent is revisited and for me there is only one question to be answered. Did the defendant, Jean Claude Meus, fall asleep or not when he passed through that stop sign? The answer that comes to mind is that only 'he and his maker know for sure the answer to that question. No one else can say this with any degree of certainty. Assuming this is a key ele- ment to proving this vehicular homicide Sgt. Keen's opinions and theories should hardly have been allowed. After all they .were simply opinions and theo- ries and don't we need to prove each element of the crime charged, beyond a reasonable doubt? I'm sure that even in the mind of Sgt. Keen there could be reasonable doubt. Sgt. Keen's theory was certainly given substantial weight in the Meus trial and should it have been? On Feb. 12, 1998, a careless driver drove through a stop sign at 45 mph and killed my daughter at Stryker Road and .Olivia Drive. Had Cpl. Keen on that day had the same opinion and theory as he did during the Meus investigation, that out- come would .have been all together different. Meus faces years in prison and the careless driver who killed my daughter served not' one day and was fined $250. Should the opinions and the- ories of one Florida Highway patrolman mean so much? Or should evidence beyond a rea- sonable doubt be the standard. James T. McClugage Avon Park mates. That classroom discussion is older than a year, but if that Hispanic student is still watching the world around him, he might have made another connection. He might have heard ER S something of the dis- cussion we had in IMP class, the one about 7- the legendary Fall of enberg Rome. Rome didn't fall for immorality, as I was taught. Rome was a great place to live and Romans welcomed immi- grants from the north who were enthralled by the' mild, Mediterranean climate, and the prosperous lifestyle. In those days, ancient Rome was the modern American equivalent of Santa Barbara.: And Romans welcomed the newcomers. At the same time, Romans were enjoying a soaring market grasping for Roman goods and Roman culture. Northern Europeans were moving south- ward, and among them were some who were robbers, people who were jealous of Rome's power and wealth. Nurtured in the church, I don't know how many sermons I've heard on the subject of Roman decadence. But when I got to college, I saw a much wider context. No one denies that Romans enjoyed an "adult" lifestyle, with all its offered pleasures. Corinth was far more "adult" than Rome, but that Greek city ,became the icon for the jurist architecture in Washington D.C. the great Corinthian It Big Business needs to learn Editor: Please let me encourage businesses to go the, extra mile and select and train their recep- tionists and customer service personnel to be gracious, cour- teous and' knowledgeable to their clientele. Within these past few months, I have decided to stop doing business with a number of "big business" franchises because of the disrespect and lack of knowledge the front 'desk person and customer serv-, ice representatives have exhib- ited. It has cost me time and money because of their igno- rance. The irony is that the office manager, in each case, was able to still the waters and produce the appropriate infor- mation and help, but is often the last person the receptionist would allow me to speak with. Power without knowledge is a costly thing ( and I'm not even talking about the govern- columns and the rotundas and all that stuff on the Mall. Of course, empty was the Trojan immigration horse that was moving down the Italian peninsula. And until the hordes of "barbarians" began climbing down the lower passes through the'Italian Alps, the newcomers and the natives.got along very well, trading, sharing culture and language, and getting to know one another. At the same time, happy to share Pax Romana across .Europe, the Roman army was extended farther and farther from Rome, like the diminish- ing ripples after a stone dropped into a small-pond. And, at just, the. right moment, the jealous, pillaging hordes, like weevils with snouts, began sucking Rome dry. The night the first of them began invading the northern suburbs, it was too late. There weren't enough Roman soldiers to make a difference. I suppose it can be, argued still that Romans were too happy in their luxurious lifestyle to care much about what was happening way up north, up there beyond the Italian Alps. You know the story about the Trojan horse, the mythological Greek story about the invasion of the city Troy, how the huge horse was rolled into the city whose people were thrilled to accept such a colossal gift by Greek standards of the time. Trojans all went to bed and in the morning many of them were. dead, because the great gift housed soldiers bent on con- quering their city. Thousands of years later, the ment at present). Usually this treatment occurs with businesses connected to national or international com- panies. Small and local busi- nesses tend to recognize that customer service and customer recidivism walk hand in hand. These are the people who provide the graciousness and knowledge needed in a cost effective manner. Perhaps, Big Business needs to take lessons from their little brothers. Joy M. Eastman Sebring America is for Americans Editor: Some of my thoughts on ille- gal immigration, let us pray for America. America is for Americans. Our men and boys and girls have served and died to secure our beautiful America and all of its freedoms. These free- doms are- not free, but were bought at a huge price ever 'Whether it comes from the left or the right, censorship remains the mark of a thug-level mentality one who thinks the proper reply to a difference of opinion is brute force.' DAN HAGEN, columnist, Sullivan (Ill.) News-ProgreSs, 2005 United States of America is receiving millions of immi- grants, an empty Trojan horse, at a time when our love for and devotion to freedom has our military moving farther and far- ther away, like ripples in. that pond. I taught my sixth-grade world history students three axioms 'of history: No. matter how many times a nation is invaded and con- quered, the basic culture changes little. An invading nation cannot change the basic culture of the nation it invades and conquers. Any nation is destined to continue to evolve from its beginning, to continue its basic culture, to resist basic cultural changes, and to continue to flourish when it sells its. resources on the world's mar- ket, and it remains true to its particular history. Over extension doomed Rome. So enamored with their lifestyle crude as it was by our standards they truly thought they were serving 'the best interests of the known world in their time. Right now, the infamous Trojan horse is empty, but there may come a day when it is filled again with the greedy and the insolent, the unrighteous and the barbarians, the herd of goats bending their heads to break out of the wooden/icon and ravage a nation of free peo- ple. Just a thought... The kids got it. They live it. Ric Liljenberg is a former News- Sun staff writer and a resident of Sebring.

I will try to list a few of these dangers that could and will cost the lives of millions of Americans. The list of diseases is huge. Every disease that has been recorded in man's history is Coming to the shares of Anierica in strains that we can- not control: Tuberculosis, lep- rosy, cholera. Epidemics of hundreds of diseases are expected. Another danger is the disrupting of our economy, the destruction of a living wage. Democracy and the economy is inseparable. The fighting in the streets of many nations over jobs cannot and should not be brought to the shores of America by those who claim to represent working class Americans, by a guesi worker program or repeating the-1986 amnesty program, which was a, sham. Most all the institutions, the churches, the banks, the unions, the schools,, all manufacturers, all those who stand to gain monetarily. The only solution is for every American to join in a civil defense system, controlled by the people our government is out of control. There is no law enforcement. Our Attorney General of these United States refuses to enforce and obey the law and is trying to and promoting changes of our laws to suit his own whims. We are in a war of great pro- portions, to save our system of government we must organize civil defense, not Homeland Security run by those who would destroy us. The American citizen has a right to bear arms and form a civil defense system against those who would destroy us. The American citizen not only has the right, but he has the duty to both himrilf'and-hll Amenricans. The American go v- ernment has "moles" from all over the world in every branch of government and the voter must start looking at their vot- ing records so as to cleanse our system of those enemies. Another great danger, terror- ists and criminals. Cuba and other countries have opened its prisons to allow those criminals to infest our population (500,000 of these illegals are now in our jails). The American government has had ample time to solve our broken border problem, more, than 20 years, but the problem has been multiplied by millions. It is now time for the American people to reinstate a civil defense system controlled by the people ... otherwise, there will be civil unrest in our street, by the millions as there are in many other nations as I speak. We are engaged in a Great Civil War, the Working Class against the Super Rich. Those who think differently surely must believe in the Tooth Fairy. S Billie' E. Jewett ':. '. .' Sebring May, along with many other designa- tions, is Motorcycle Safety Month. Just as the bicyclists that have discovered the wonders of riding in Highlands County so have the motorcycle enthusiasts. Many different events are HIGI now held here in our great county bringing HO motorcyclists from all over the state and J.P. different parts of the nation. While motorcycle fatalities are up for all age groups, motorcyclists 40 and older account for an alarming number of motorcycle fatalities. In the last 10 years, motorcycle fatali- ties have increased nearly 250 percent in the 40-and-older age group, and more than 350 per- cent in the 50-and-older age group. Part of the reason for this increase in these "baby boomer" fatalities is the demo- graphic shift of motorcycle rid- ers and the increasing horse- power of the bikes they're rid- ing. Two decades ago, the rider -who pulled up next to you was probably about 24 years old and, riding a small dirt bike or dual- purpose bike.. Now, that rider is more likely to be'about 40 years old, and riding a larger, more powerful cycle. - In fact, research shows that in the last 10 years, there has been a decline in the purchase of motorcycles ith under 500- cc engines. However, there has, been a 60 percent increase in the purchase of 501-cc to 1,000-cc motorcycles, and, more than a 125 percent increase in the purchase of bikes with 1,001- to 1,500-cc engines. And it's the older rid- ers who are buying the majority of the larger bikes. "Today's motorcycles are a new breed of road machine,"' said Lane Bradford of the Heartland Riders Association. "The sheer size and power of cruisers takes a lot of getting used to. In fact, dealers are reporting that new motorcyclists are crashing their new bikes before they get them off the dealer lot." Other contributing crash factors can include inexperience; many older motorcy- WAY clists are returning to riding after years LUNE away from the sport, but they're relying Fane on the skill sets they had when they were 20 years old, instead of taking a motorcycle safety refresher course. Older riders' eyesight, hear- ing and reflexes have also changed and these changes can have a direct impact on motor- cyclists' riding ability. Increasing age also brings with it a greater degree of fragility so that in any given crash, an older motorcyclist may suffer more- severe injuries than a younger motorcycist might, and these. injuries usually\ take longer to recover from. Alcohol also plays a huge role 'in fatal crashes, and research from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows that many older riders involved in crashes are more likely to have been drinking. In fact, the per- centage of riders with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 grams per deciliter or.above was highest for fatally injured operators bet\ een the age of 35 and 39 039, percent), followed, by age 40 to 44 (38 percent) and a~e 45 to 49 (134 percent). "Motorcycle riding requires a c\clist' complete concentra- Slion and special skills. Even.a small amount of alcohol or drugs can compromise riding ability and contribute to a crash," said Bradford, president of the Heartland Riders Association. There are a variety of proven countermeasures that motorcy- clists of all ages can use to increase their cycling safety. Always wearing a helmet and the right gear, checking equip- ment before riding, never drink- ing and riding, and getting the right training can make a huge difference in motorcyclists' safety. During this year's Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, Bradford said that Heartland Riders Association is pleased,to join with National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to encourage new and returning riders to always wear their gear, never drink and ride, get training, and to remind all cyclists and motorists to always share the road. You can contact Bradford. at 381-9468 about upcoming motorcycle events here in Highlands County or visit their Web site at http://www.hra-rid- ers.com/home.htm. Remember to drive defen- sively and arrive alive. While driving anywhere, stay alert to your surroundings and keep in mind that you must share the road with many types of vehi- cles.

That reminded me of one of the family's favorite stories: My day with the bears at Yellowstone (outreach. u wyo. edu/confer ences/culture/tetons.htm). We had just stopped off to see one of the falls and were standing outside a gift shop when a hue and cry went up amongst the other tourists. A bear had made its way into the area and was being encouraged to leave by a groundskeeper. As the man prodded the bear's rump, a lady, who didn't know the bear was around, turned just in time to have the bear bar- rel through her upraised leg like a croquet ball seeking the pin. It would be hard to say whether the bear or the woman was more startled by that turn of events. We left there and drove to a nearby campground where we proceeded to set up our lunch on.the picnic table. There was a bear trap about 60 yards away and another bear was ambling her way from campsite to campsite, looking for food. We kept an eye on the bear until she appeared to take a definite interest in our direction. The folks said we should pack up and get in the car. The back door of the car was locked, and I didn't take the time to unlock the door. Rather, I climbed over the front bench seat into the back in time to watch the bear try to get the lid off our steel Coca-Cola cooler. Do you remember those? My folks still think my scramble was a hilarious picture. I still think the bear was bigger than me and I wasn't going to argue. For detail on Yellowstone, go to nps.gov/yell. Thinking of Yellowstone brings memories of Mt. Rushmore (nps.gov/moru/start.htm) and the Crazy Horse (crazy horse.org) Memorial, as well as the Grand Tetons (gtlc.com)..I am grateful that my family traveled the United States as much as we did and when we did. One of our sweetest mem- ories is of my mom's birth- day in the Snowy Range Mountains (outreach. uwyo. edu/confer ences/culture/snowy.htm) located just west of (out reach. uwyo. edu/confer ences/culture/images/snowy4 .jpg) Laramie, Wyo. in the Medicine Bow National Forest. We camped at the foot of the mountains and watched four people climb the face of Medicine Bow Peak. My mom's friend had packed a birthday party kit and given to me to hide in our camper until the special day. My dad and I hiked up the back trail and made a large snowball that we then filled with wild flowers. We decorated the camper while Mom was away and sur- prised her with cake and candles, as well as the snow- ball. My mom still says that was the best birthday she's had.

INSIDE Missionary work: SECTION C + FRIDAY, JUNE 2, 2006 Show suggested for immature audiences By SUE ANN CARPENTER News-Sun correspondent SEBRING written by Billy Van Zandt and Jane Milmore, "Drop Dead!" is a play within a play, Highlands Little Theatre's 17-year vet- eran Mac B\ ron directs this comedic farce. "It's one of the funniest plays I've read. I was attracted to it because it's about actors and directors and pokes fun at them. It's an interesting over-the-top concept and involves the audience," Byron said. While this cast of pathetic has-been actors try to revive their careers, sets fall, props break, wacky behind-the-scenes antics are exposed, and murders occur. Although she'd performed in shows and party entertainment in other states and even Egypt, this is Brenda Hippchen's first performance at Highlands" Little Theatre. She was excited about this role of an older woman, and portrays 90-year-old Constance, who has difficulty seeing and hearing. "I enjoy comedic roles. My character is a hpot. It's a high to laugh, and this play is a pleasure for every- one," Hippchen said. Ken Hall portrays ham actor Brent Reynolds who takes on the part of Alexander Barrington. "At first it was a test for myself to memorize it. Then I got hooked. It was not only fun, but also chal- lenging playing one character and then the other," he said. Kristin Taylor plays aging ex-TV actress Mona, a conceited has-been who's trying to make a comeback. Taylor has both undergraduate and graduate degrees in theater, but spent 20 years in the business world. After moving to Sebring in 2003 she feels Highlands Little Theatre helped her discover her old love of the- atre and brought her back to life. "There's lots of interplay on stage. Lots of things happen in the background if you're alert. It's a play you could see several times and always discover something new," Taylor said. Art Harriman, director of Highland County's Red Cross, is passionate about Highlands Little Theatre. "It's my hobby, my release. After my n\er\ seriouss job, it's a great(relief to break away and lose myself. I play \icor Le Pew, the director and I'm way out there. I'm flamboyant and temperamental ... and recovering from a breakdown. I love comedy," Harriman said. All four of his kids have previously performed in different plays. And now his oldest son Chris portrays Phillip, the stage manager in "Drop Dead!" "Its a family thing. We love to do music and the- ater together. And HLT is family oriented," Harriman said. : This hilarious romp is suggested for immature audiences only. 'Drop Dead!' is sponsored by the News-Sun. Want to go? What: "Drop Dead!'

In fact, it's not really a stretch at all to say that comics are like testosterone imbued versions of daytime drama on a colorful, printed page. Every installment ends with a cliff-hanger. They are loaded with romance and intrigue and outrageous, pulpy scenarios. The characters are mostly predictable, and we like that. Serious subjects are occa- sionally broached, but for the most part, those who love either are looking for a way to pass 30 minutes with people they "know." It seems recently that the annual crop of "super-movies" tends to forget this a little bit more with every passing year. If the level of darkness is toned just right, we don't mind (see "Batman Begins""). If the cheese-meter runs up too high, than we get something like "The Fantastic 4." Barely watchable. Originally tapped for the directing duties of "X-Men: The Last Stand," director Bryan Singer ditched the project for "Superman Returns" (hitting theaters June 30), and while we'll never know how it would've panned out, fans of the "X-Men" series can X-hale. Director Brett Ratner has. embraced the episodic nature of the franchise film and delivered a tightly choreographed, per- sonal movie. Of course things zip, flash, blow-up, crunch and slice, but the core of this film is the overdue introspection of the The Last Stand' 'A with Marcus Marcus Movie Rating 1 M = Miserable 2 M = Mediocre 3 M = Marginal 4 M = Magnificent 5 M = Masterpiece 'X-Men: The Last Stand' gets M M M: M characters we've come to know from the first two movies. The-family of mutants from Westchester, N.Y. have reached a transitional point in the trilo- gy, and Ratner has done a superb job of recognizing this and honing in on the character's emotions. For the first two films it was enough to just Want to go? What: 'X-Men: The Last Stand,' rated PG-13 When: 12, 12:30, 1, 2:30, 3, 3:25, 5, 5:25, 5:50, 7:30, 7:50, 8:15, 10 and 10:15 p.m. Where: Lakeshore Cinema 8 in Lakeshore Mall, Sebring. Admission: $5 for matinees, seniors 60 and older and children 12 and under and $7 forieyening shows Movie length: 1 hour, 44 minutes watch each mutant showcase their powers with a bevy of spe- cial effects. Now we get to know them. What makes it truly enjoy- able is that the story is arranged in a way that allows for this without holding our hand. The point of focus is the discovery of a mutant "cure" discovered by the government. As the pres- ident prepares to distribute the cure and rid the planet of super-. beings, the mutants divide into two factions. Those' who aggressively refuse the treat- ment led by Magneto (Ian McKellen), and the X-Men, who believe a more peaceful- resolution can be achieved. Each character has their own decision to make, offering a much more compelling conflict than the typical heroes-team- up-to-defeat-bad-guy theme. By forcing the X-Men to look at how they view their power's (blessing or curse), we're let inside of a complicated but cap- tivating struggle. Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) Sis still the man of the hour, but even his animalistic aura is adjusted to allow a new kind of bond. There are some disap- pointing deaths, but none that a cleverly scripted "part 4" can't resolve. There are certain char- acters the series simply can't do without, and my money's on a resurrection or two the next go 'round. Ratner has found a formula that may prove to work only once, but if the current shelf-life of comic-inspired blockbusters is any indication, stay tuned for the exciting conclusion.

Pass the gospel around instead of negativity RELIGION "Therefore those that were scattered ,,p, went everywhere preaching the word," Acts 8:4 NKJV. It seems like that in our day and time it has become popular to talk about, read about and even pass around negative propaganda. What makes the cover of our newspapers?. What is the usual lead story on our . nightly newscast? What is the major VERL story in a lot of church publications? Bad news. Why is it that the church SPIRI and many Christians have got caught Vr up in the broadcasting of constant neg- ativity? Could it be that talking about, writing about, and even passing er around negative and sometimes false- propaganda is much easier than spreading the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ? I think that is exactly the problem. Many don't have the knowledge or courage to talk to another about Jesus because they may not agree with what we have to say. Yet, we can always find someone to listen to our gossip or bad news and in many cases someone who agrees with us. Maybe we have, in our efforts spread the bad news, forgotten:the very mission of the church: "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature," Mark 16:15. Granted, that's not always easy and in fact it is much harder than talking to our fellow church members or family members who agree with all "our positions." But juti~ .ON'S RITUAL AMIN Carrell the fact remains, our "high calling" is sharing the sacrificial Son of God and His wonderful grace and mercy with a lost world. We often say "speak where the Bible speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent." and although this is not a Bible verse it is a good thought and plea. Yet, if we are going to be true to this "catch phrase" we must speak where the Bible speaks in "all things," not just the few we carefully select. "I can't choose to assemble at the worship services and neglect to preach the gospel to my friends," Matt. 28:18-20. "I can't choose to eat the Lord's Supper each first day of the week and neglect the effort to restore my erring brother, Gal. 6:1." "I can't choose to sing without the instru- ment and yet fail to go to my brother when I have ought against.him," Matt. 18:15-17. The next time you are tempted to tell or pass around some negative and possibly false infor- mation to another, why not stop and tell them something that you know is good and right? For us to speak the "truth in love" is for us to be obeying the Lord's command to pass around the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Verlon Carrell is the minister at Lake Placid Church of Christ. He can be reached at 465-4636 or e-mail him at Vman4underpar@aol.com. Continued from 4C Sunday is the day everyone turns in their talent money.

SCOTT DRESSEL/News-Sun Zach,Maloyed of Rotary beats the throw to Lions first-baseman Matt Wilkerson by a whisker during Thursday's game.- .Lions come alive late to beat Rotary BY JOHN RITTER News-Sun correspondent SEBRING If ever there could be an argument that a 10-run win was closer than the score. indicates, it was Thursday night. Through the first four innings, pitchers Austin'Blanco and Zach Maloyed battled to keep their teams within reach, dombin- ing to strike out 16 batters while,giving ip only five hits. The only three runs scored, by the Lions during that span were unearned and, at the.least, Rotary seemed Y ; 4' ,' like it would have a chance for late-inning heroics in their final game of the regular- season. But as the literal storm clouds rolled away from Max, Long Recreational Complex;. the metaphorical ones came rolling in over Rotary, and fans could only sit and watch as the Lions' powerful offense finally came to life, exploding for nine runs over the final two innings to roll past Rotary, 12-2, and picking up some momentum before the city tournament begins on Sunday. Matt Wilkersori and Corbin Hoffner led the Lions with a combined four hits and four runs. Six Lions finished the night with an RBI, including Blanco, whose two-run double broke the game open in the fifth inning. Taylor Townsend led off the frame with a walk and was followed by a Hoffner single to put two men on with no outs. Wilkerson then laced a single to left to chase home Townsend to make it 4-0.
