Sometimes fear and anxiety can get
the best of us. It can cause us to lose
sleep, not think straight and even get
physically sick. I know this because one
of my daughters recently had what I
would consider pretty bad anxiety is-
sues. Her anxiety was related to school
and all the tests students have to take
these days.

Seminole gearing up for Stampede


By TIFFANY RAZZANO
SEMINOLE Twenty-one years ago, nearly 2,000
runners gathered to race across the 102nd Avenue
Bridge when it first opened.
The construction of that roadway connector, which
brought together two sides of the community, had
been held up for years, said Gretchen Cain-Wells,
Seminole Chamber of Commerce's chief of opera-
tions.
"One obstacle after another," she said. "It seemed
like it was never going to open. Then all of a sudden it
did and it was a huge. ... That first run was a huge
splash."
That was the unintentional birth of the Seminole
Stampede 5K and 1-mile run, now an annual event


SPC plans forums on

Greenlight Pinellas
SEMINOLE Pinellas County citizens will go to the polls Nov. 4 to
vote on a proposed 1-cent sales tax increase to improve public
transportation facilities in the county. To help them understand the
pros and cons of the referendum, St. Petersburg College will present
the first of a series of free public forums on the issue on April 3.
The program, titled "Dealing with Gridlock: Is There a Light Rail
in Pinellas County's Future?" will be from 6 to 8 p.m. in the Digital
Auditorium of the Seminole campus, 9200 113th St. N. It is spon-
sored by the Institute for Strategic Policy Solutions at SPC. The
Tampa Bay Times is the media sponsor. Advance reservations are
requested.
The referendum approved last fall by the Pinellas County Com-
mission, would fund improvements in bus service provided by the
Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority and eventually a 24-mile light-
rail line serving high-employment sectors between downtown St.
Petersburg and downtown Clearwater. While raising the sales tax
from seven to eight cents per dollar, the referendum would elimi-
nate the current .75-mill property tax dedicated to transportation.
The forum will open with pro-con presentations on the proposal
by advocates for and against passage. Speaking for the amendment
will be Don Ewing, chairman of Greenlight Pinellas. Speaking
against will be Barbara Haselden, president of St. Pete 912, a chap-
ter of the Tea Party, and a leader of No Tax for Tracks, an advocacy
group that opposes passage of the penny tax hike for transit.
The final portion of the program will be devoted to answering

See FORUMS, page 10A


for serious runners, local families and everyone in be-
tween.
The following year, the run moved to Walsingham
Park, where about 1,000 participants turned out to
commemorate the park's opening. The event, which
attracts about 400 runners annually, is still held
there.
This year's event will take place on Saturday,
March 22, with the races beginning at 8 a.m.
The racecourse is certified by the Florida Associa-
tion of Runners, and also chip-timed, for the more
competitive racers. Everett McDowell of Florida Road
Race management will be on hand to time the races
This year Chick-fil-A, a longtime sponsor of the
event, is stepping up to encourage kids to participate.
The fast-food restaurant is challenging schools by


awarding the school with the highest number of par-
ticipants, which can include students, teachers, staff
and their families, a Chick-fil-A party. Allen Sports
Center will have special T-shirts made for the second-
place school.
"It's to encourage kids to come out and be active,"
Wells said.
Runners will get $5 off if they register early. If they
register by March 21, the cost is $20 for the 5K race
and $10 for the 1-mile run. After that, cost is $25 for
the 5K and $15 for the 1-mile race.
Those interested in signing up can stop by the
Chamber office, 7985 113th St. N., Suite 208, call 392-

7 Things You Must Know Before

Putting Your Home Up For Sale


PINELLAS COUNTY
A new report has just been
released which reveals 7
costly mistakes that most
homeowners make when
selling their home, and a 9
step system that can help
you sell your home fast and
for the most amount of
money.
This industry report shows
clearly how the traditional
ways of selling homes have
become increasingly less
and less effective in today's
market. The fact of the
matter is that fully three
quarters of homesellers


don't get what they want for
their homes and become
disillusioned and-worse-
financially disadvantaged
when they put their homes
on the market.
As this report uncovers,
most homesellers make 7
deadly mistakes that cost
them literally thousands of
dollars. The good news is
that each and every one of
these mistakes is entirely
preventable. In answer to
this issue, industry insiders
have prepared a free special
report entitled "The 9 step
System to Get Your Home


Sold Fast and For Top
Dollar".

Memorial fund


Photo by TRACY SIMMONS
A year ago, Olivia Simmons, 9, began a crusade to collect donations for a memorial fund for the victims
of the Newtown, Conn., school shooting. Over the past year, she raised her goal of $1,100. She took
cans with the names of each victim pasted onto them to local businesses to collect money. Simmons
connected with the tragic event because one of the victims was also named Olivia, and both girls loved
horses and the color pink. Seminole Mayor Leslie Waters invited Simmons to the Feb. 25 City Council
meeting, where she was presented with a certificate and recognized for her efforts.


Correction
In the March 6 issue of the Semi-
nole Beacon, Fred Zinda was identi-
fied as the 2013 Mr. Seminole. This
award was actually given for 2014.
Also, in a photograph of Zinda with
previous winners of the award, Gene
Stern and Paul King were left out of
the caption, and two names were
spelled incorrectly: Dr. Edward Lurie
and John Elias.

Sheriff reports continuing decline in crime


By SUZETTE PORTER
LARGO The crime rate in Pinellas County is going down, in align-
ment with a statewide trend of record low numbers.
Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri reported March 5 that the 2013
overall crime rate decreased by 5 percent. Part 1 crimes are down by 5.8
percent.
Gualtieri's statistics cover only the areas within the sheriffs service
area unincorporated Pinellas and the municipalities of Belleair Beach,
Belleair Bluffs, Belleair Shore, Dunedin, Indian Rocks Beach, Madeira
Beach, North Redington Beach, Oldsmar, Redington Beach, Safety Har-
bor, Seminole, South Pasadena and St. Pete Beach.
Gualtieri pointed out that 2013 is the fifth consecutive year that Part 1
crimes have gone down. Over the past five years, Part 1 crime is down
23.8 percent.
Part 1 crimes are the most serious crimes, which according to the
FBI's Uniform Crime Report are homicide, forcible sex offenses, robbery,
aggravated assault, burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft.
Gualtieri reported that in 2013 homicides went down 64.7 percent;
forcible sex offenses, 9.72 percent; robbery, 12 percent; burglary, 10.4
percent; larceny, 4.6 percent; and motor vehicle theft, 8.95 percent.
Aggravated assault was the only category with an increase up 9.23
percent, which was due to the number of victims not cases, the report
said. The number of aggravated assault cases involving firearms also in-
creased by 41 percent. Sixty-one cases were reported in 2012 and 86 in
2013. However, the number of Part 1 crimes involving firearms went
down by nearly 24.5 percent.
Seventeen homicides were investigated in 2012 one of the highest
numbers in recent years. In 2013, the number of homicides went down
to six one of the lowest in recent years.
In his report, Gualtieri noted that arrests for Part 1 crimes also were
increasing up by nearly 22 percent compared to 2012. Arrests for Part
1 and Part 2 crime were up by 9.65 percent. The closure rate for Part 1
crimes also went up by 12.48 percent.
He also pointed out that the decrease in crime came at a time when
budget cuts had forced a significant decrease in personnel. Over the past
five years, PCSO has cut more than 600 positions, including 167 law en-
forcement deputies, he said.
PCSO provides service to more than 50 percent of the total land area
in Pinellas and provides primary law enforcement for more than 41 per-
cent of the population.
"The numbers continue to head in the right direction and it's a trib-
ute to the day-to-day good work by all sheriffs office members who have
worked tirelessly to achieve this significant and sustained crime reduc-
tion," Gualtieri said in a press release.
Crime down throughout Florida
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement reports that the state's
crime volume is down to a record low. The semi-annual Uniform Crime


Report released in November showed that crime volume had dropped 5.2
percent compared to the first six months of 2012.
"Our communities are on a path to a 43 year crime low, which im-
proves the quality of life for families and benefits all aspects of our com-
munities," Gov. Rick Scott said during a Nov. 19 press conference.
The mid-year report showed that violent crime was down 3.5 percent
statewide, including a 10.6 percent drop in murders, 2 percent drop in
robberies and a 4.2 percent decrease in aggravated assault. Non-violent
crime also decreased 5.5 percent.
These numbers reflect historic lows," said FDLE Commissioner Ger-
ald Bailey. "Law enforcement is working hard to make Florida a safe
place to live, work and play."

Three arrested for
embezzling $400,000
CLEARWATER- Three employ-
ees of Lokey Automotive were ar-
rested March 6 in connection
with a scheme to defraud case
after they reportedly embezzled
approximately $400,000 from the
Clearwater dealership.
Detectives assigned to the
Pinellas County Sheriffs Eco-
nomic Crimes Unit said the three
were associated with an off-site
marketing business and funneled
money to that company by sign-
ing and issuing checks from the
car dealership business ac-
counts.
The suspects were employed
through Lokey Automotive, which
includes Lokey Nissan and Lokey
VW located at 27758 U.S. 19 N.
in Clearwater. The investigation
began Jan. 14, 2013.
According to detectives, be-
tween June 1 and Sept. 30, 2012,
James Surrett, 45, of Orlando,
Larry Dubose, 39, of Tarpon
Springs and Patricia Lipka, 51, of
Fort Myers were employed with
Lokey Automotive and also asso-
ciated with the off-site marketing
company.
Surrett was general manager
at Lokey Automotive. Dubose was

controller within the accounting

The three used their positions
to complete invoices for the third
party marketing company, detec-
tives said. They approved the in-
voices and signed checks payable
to the company for their own fi-
nancial gain. Invoices for nonex-
istent marketing and mailing
services were created and billed
to Lokey Automotive.
PCSO issued arrest warrants
for the three suspects on March
5. Surrett turned himself in at
the Pinellas County Jail the next
day. Dubose was arrested on the
warrant in Pasco County. Patricia
Lipka was arrested on the war-
rant in Lee County. All three were
charged with scheme to defraud.

Man trapped under
dump truck dies
ST. PETERSBURG Pinellas
County Sheriff's deputies are
conducting a death investigation
following an apparent industrial
accident that occurred Thursday,
March 6, at the Pinellas County
Solid Waste Facility, 3001 110th
St. N. in St. Petersburg.
According to investigators,
Brian Keith Porter, 47, of Saraso-
ta, drove the dump truck into the
front gate of the waste facility at
11:29 a.m. He proceeded to the
Waste to Energy Plant building,
where he backed into bay No. 3
with a full load of trash. Deputies
said it appears that he started to
dump the load and encountered
some type of malfunction with


the bed of the truck.
At approximately 11:39 a.m., a
worker found Porter pinned be-
tween the frame rail of the truck
and the fully loaded dumping
bed. Deputies said the worker re-
ported the incident when he no-
ticed that the dump truck had
remained stationary.
Various fire department per-
sonnel responded to the scene
and used fork lifts to raise the
bed and free the man. The Medi-
cal Examiner's Office will conduct
an autopsy to determine cause
and manner of death.
Deputies said the death ap-
pears to be accidental and that
there is no indication that Porter
or the vehicle are associated with
a business. It appears he may be
an independent worker.

Overnight stabbing
leads to 2 arrests
SEMINOLE Pinellas County
Sheriffs deputies arrested two
Largo men Thursday, March 6, in
connection with a stabbing of two
residents at a home on Flame
Vine Avenue in Seminole.
At about 3 a.m. deputies re-
sponded to the home due to re-
ports of two people stabbed in the
driveway of their residence.
During the investigation,
deputies found out that two men
had approached Kenneth Poling
and his sister Kelly in the drive-
way of their residence and asked
for a ride home. When they re-
fused to provide the ride, the
meeting became confrontational,


Seminole Beacon, March 13, 2014


eventually leading to the stabbing
of both brother and sister.
Deputies assisted medical per-
sonnel as they tended to the vic-
tim's injuries. The victims were
taken to a nearby hospital with
non-life-threatening injuries.


Deputies set a perimeter
around the immediate area.
Pinellas County K-9 and Flight
Units provided assistance. The K-
9 Unit tracked suspects Anthony
Dejesus, 25, and Blaine Martin,
22, who were found a few blocks


from the original scene. Deputies
arrested the men and transported
them to the Pinellas County Jail.
Dejesus was charged with two
counts of aggravated battery and
Martin was charged with accesso-
ry after the fact.

Kitchen fire extinguished


Photo by BRAD DYKENS
On March 8, firefighters from Madeira Beach and Seminole Fire Rescue departments responded to a
structure fire at 5150 Duhme Road in Boca Ciega Point Apartments. Firefighters found a small fire in the
kitchen of apartment 363N, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Paul Larkin who were not home at the time. The
fire was quickly extinguished limiting the damage to the cabinet area surrounding the stove. Two dogs
were rescued from the apartment and were treated for smoke inhalation at a local veterinarian's office
and are expected to be fine. The cause of the fire was determined to be from an unattended pot that
was left on the stove.

Healthy Aging
A happy emotional outlook and sharp mental state are critical building blocks for
overall good health in seniors. Physical health pales when a person suffers emotional
distress and isolation, making them unable to enjoy life. In fact, emotional health and
a sharp mind are critical for seniors when physical limitations prevail.
Physical health can be maintained by exercising within your individual abilities,
with your doctor's consent. Exercise helps preserve muscle tone and bone density and
can aid in balance and coordination. Daily exercise can be as simple as walking around
the block or participating in a group exercise class at the local gym. Consuming a well-
balanced diet of fresh fruits and vegetables, fiber, and protein provides nutrients your
body needs to function properly inside and out.
Ii. 1 . irl, r.r .1-ii 11 . . ir . I Challengescan include
participating in new activities, playing games you never have before or merely
extending your knowledge in one subject. Creativity is key in keeping your brain sharp
and your senses focused.
Emotional health becomes endangered as seniors face the loss of a spouse and other
loved ones. Isolation can become prevalent due to physical limitations or the lack of
desire to socialize. Anxiety and depression can affect seniors who worry about money
matters, have minimal contact with others, or for those who suffer serious medical
conditions.
Emotional health depends largely on happiness, which is influenced by increased
socialization and less isolation. Encourage seniors to join clubs, volunteer, or dine
together. Daily activities give a sense of purpose, a feeling of value and create happier
states of mind-which is key in potentially avoiding the effects of stress, anxiety and
depression.
The primary goal of seniors is to maintain independent lives in their own homes. It
is essential for seniors to understand that in order to achieve this goal they must learn
how to adapt to some of these changes by pursuing healthy lifestyles that can, in turn,
make independence possible well into their golden years.

Comfort Keepers is a leader in in-home senior care to promote independent living.
Services include companionship, meal preparation, light housekeeping, grocery
shopping, incidental transportation, laundry, recreational activities, personal care and
technology products.

U.S. House passes flood insurance bill


By SUZETTE PORTER

The U.S. House of Representatives passed
a flood insurance bill March 4 that could
signal coming relief for property owners try-
ing to deal with huge rate hikes.
Governor Rick Scott called the action the
"right thing for Floridians."
'The House's action on this flood insur-
ance fix tonight is an important win in our
fight to undo unfair flood insurance rate
hikes that are hurting Florida families,"
Scott said in a press release after the vote.
U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson said the House bill
didn't do enough, but was a good first step.
"Although it doesn't go as far as the bill
we passed in the Senate, it's good the House
has approved some curbs on flood insur-
ance," Nelson said. "For the sake of policy-
holders facing massive rate hikes, I hope we
can get a final version sent to the president
quickly."
The U.S. Senate approved legislation pro-
posed by Nelson Jan. 30, which would delay
many of the flood insurance rate increases
for four years, during which time FEMA
would be required to study the affordability
of the policies and re-evaluate the accuracy
of new flood maps.
The Homeowner Flood Insurance Afford-
ability Act, passed ty the House, does not
delay rate increases but repeals certain sec-
tions, according to an analysis from the
Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber of Com-
merce. It restores grandfathering and re-
peals the automatic increase in rates from
the sale of a home or a lapsed policy.
The legislation limits the annual rate in-
crease to a maximum of 15 percent and pro-
poses refunds for some policyholders who


have already paid increased premiums. The
House also increased funding for an afford-
ability study from $750,000 to $3 million.
Long-term relief comes from an annual
surcharge of $25 for residential policyhold-
ers and $250 fee for commercial and sec-
ondary properties. The surcharge will go to
the National Flood Insurance Program re-
serve fund.
The House bill does not affect commercial
properties, secondary homes or properties
with severe losses. Rates for those proper-
ties will continue to increase by 25 percent a
year. However, rate increases would no
longer be triggered with the sale of the prop-
erty.
The Senate bill would enact a four-year
delay and would temporarily restore grand-
fathering. It also would delay rate increases
triggered by home sales and delay annual
rate increases. It removes the cap for fund-
ing of an affordability study and provides
short-term relief to premium increases.
Members of the Conference Committee
will meet to work out the differences before
legislation is sent to the president for sign-
ing.
Pinellas County has been described as
"ground zero" due to the number of proper-
ties affected by sky-high flood insurance
rate hikes due the affects from the Biggert-
Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012.
Horror stories of rate increases have been
frequent for months. The real estate indus-
try is reeling. Government officials are con-
cemrned that property values could plummet.
Congress passed the Biggert-Waters Flood
Insurance Reform Act of 2012 to try to sta-
bilize the finances of NFIP, which has been
in the red since Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

Tax Collector's Office joins
Donate Life
CLEARWATER- Employees at the
Pinellas County Tax Collector's Office are
teaming up with Donate Life Florida in
March to make Floridians aware of the life-
saving role they can play by registering as
an organ, tissue and eye donor.
Tax Collector employees are participat-
ing in the annual Donate Life Challenge to
promote awareness of Florida's organ
donor registry.
"I am honored that my offices can be
part of an effort like this that helps save
lives" said Pinellas County Tax Collector
Diane Nelson. "We have been involved in
the organ donor effort since we began issu-
ing driver licenses in 2001."
Tax Collector employees help register
potential organ donors by asking all driver
license customers if they would like to join
the registry. Last year's Donate Life Chal-
lenge led to more than 85,000 new donor
registrations throughout Florida.
"Organ transplantation let me walk both
my daughters down the aisle in 2012,"
said double lung recipient Pete Schwob. "I
will forever be in their wedding pictures
and know that they are in good hands
with their great husbands all because
someone said 'yes" to organ donation!"
More than 3,700 Floridians currently
await organ transplants, and more than
120,000 patients are on the nationwide
list. Every 10 minutes another name is
added to the national organ transplant
waiting list.
Register as an organ donor:
1. On Donate Life Florida's website at


Seminole Beacon, March 13, 2014

questions from the audience.
Moderating the debate will be
Dennis Hinebaugh, interim di-
rector of the Center for Urban
Transportation Research at the
University of South Florida.
The proposed tax increase, if
approved by more than 50 per-
cent of Pinellas voters, would au-
thorize a 1-cent sales tax
increase for 30 years, which
would raise $120 million a year.
The tax hike would be partially
offset by eliminating the current
.75-mill property tax for transit
that brings in $32 million. For
that revenue stream, PSTA
promises a 65 percent increase
in bus service, a Bus Rapid
Transit line, that is, dedicated
bus lanes, on major corridors;
and, eventually, a 24-mile light
rail line that would roughly fol-
low the 1-275 corridor north to
the Gateway area, then head
west along Ulmerton/Roosevelt
Road.
The SPC Policy Institute plans
to offer at least two more infor-
mational forums on the transit
tax proposal. One in mid-sum-
mer will be held in the Midtown
area, and another in September
will be held in Clearwater.
Registration for the April 3
event can be made online at sp-

'Celebrate Irish culture at parties, events
Celebrate Irish culture at parties, events


By LEE CLARK ZUMPE
Leaping leprechauns, St. Patrick's Day is just around the comer!
The Irish feast day commemorating the patron saint of Ireland is cele-
brated worldwide and the Tampa Bay area is no exception. Preparations
are under way all around Pinellas to celebrate the holiday on Monday,
March 17.
Area residents will soon be downing pints of Guinness while singing
along to Irish drinking tunes like "Whiskey in the Jar" and "The Wild
Rover." The aroma of corned beef and cabbage will waft from pub kitchens
and everyone will be digging through their closets trying to find green ap-
parel.
Tampa Bay area venues will mark the occasion with a sampling of Irish
and Celtic performers.
Claddagh: An Explosion of Celtic Dance and Music will be presented
Monday, March 17, 2 and 7 p.m., at Largo Cultural Center, 105 Central
Park Drive, Largo.
Attendees will have an opportunity to celebrate St. Patrick's Day while
experiencing this groundbreaking production by the producers of Celtic
Nights and Rhythm of the Dance.
Claddagh is a vivacious music, dance and multi-media spectac-
ular that combines the fire and exuberance of shows such as --
"Barrage" and "Stomp" while weaving in the rich finesse of
the grand Irish productions. With its underlying roman-
tic storyline reminiscent of shows such as "Fanta-
sticks," "West Side Story" and "Grease," this -
production will make this St. Patrick's Day celebra
tion one to remember.
Tickets start at $24.50. Visit LargoArts.com or
call 587-6793.
Finbar Wright, Anthony Kearns and Ronan
Tynan: The Irish Tenors with Live Orchestra will 1
perform Monday, March 17, 7:30 p.m., at Capitol
Theatre, 405 Cleveland St., Clearwater. Tickets start
at $50. Call 791-7400 or visit www.atthecap.com.
Whenever thoughts turn to Ireland and Irish music, TheMoI
Irish Tenors immediately spring to mind. Ranked as Ire-
land's premier ambassadors of song, they entertain audiences
worldwide with a quality of performance which is unrivalled, incompa-
rable and, most importantly in their eyes, worthy of the rich cultural her-
itage of the country of Ireland and the exquisite musical treasury created
by Irish people everywhere throughout history. Finbar Wright, Anthony
Kearns and Ronan Tynan return with a heartfelt and patriotically charged
performance not to be missed.

Tax Collector and DOH expand partnership
CLEARWATER- In December 2013, the Florida Department of Health in
Pinellas County partnered with the Pinellas County Tax Collector to begin
offering birth certificates at select Tax Collector Offices.
The first Tax Collector Office to offer this service was the 1800 66th St.
N., St. Petersburg location in January 2014. During the first month of the
program, 273 birth certificates were distributed at this location.
Beginning March 5, birth certificates are also available at the Tax Collec-
tor Office located at 29399 U.S. 19 N., Suite 100, in Clearwater. With the
addition of this North-County location, birth certificates are now easily ac-
cessible from anywhere in Pinellas.
South County residents have access to the Tax Collector Office in St. Pe-
tersburg; mid-County residents may visit the DOH-Pinellas location at 8751
Ulmerton Road, Suite 1700, in Largo; and North-County residents now
have access to the Tax Collector Office on U.S. 19 North.
"We are excited to announce the launch of the birth certificate program
at our North-County Office. This is the second Tax Collector Office to offer
this service. Since its launch at our South County Office in January 2014,
the birth certificate program has been a huge success. With the addition of
our North-County office, residents born in Florida now have easy access to
birth certificates throughout Pinellas County. It is a convenient, value
added service for Pinellas County residents and we are proud to offer it,"
said Diane Nelson, Pinellas County Tax Collector
Since birth records are needed to procure and renew driver licenses, the
partnership between DOH-Pinellas and the Tax Collector's Office makes
the process easier for the community. Instead of making two trips or wait-
ing for birth records to arrive by mail, residents will be able to complete
both transactions at the same Tax Collector Office.
"We always strive to provide excellent service to the community and we
are happy to be partnering with the Tax Collector's Office, which also
places a high emphasis on customer service," said Dr. Claude M. Dharam-
raj, DOH-Pinellas' director.
Birth records purchased at DOH-Pinellas, 8751 Ulmerton Road, are
$13; for records purchased at Tax Collector Offices, an additional $6.25
convenience fee is added.
For information about DOH-Pinellas' Vital Statistics office, call 507-
4330, ext. 7613, or visit www.PinellasHealth.com/BirthDeathCertifi-
cates.asp. Documents also may be ordered online using the VitalChek

Enrollment opens for ambulance
membership plan
Applications are being accepted through March 31 for the Sunstar First-
Care Ambulance Membership Plan. The Sunstar FirstCare Ambulance
Membership Plan is a Pinellas County government program that works
with insurance companies to cover out-of-pocket expenses associated with
medically necessary ambulance transportation.
It covers unlimited medically necessary transportation to or from a med-
ical facility within Pinellas County, offering protection that may be lacking
with insurance coverage. For members without insurance, the plan pro-
vides a 20 percent discount on ambulance charges.
Memberships are $58.53 for an individual, $91.05 for the family plan.
Coverage is effective through March 31, 2015 upon receipt of a completed
membership application and remittance payment.
For information, call 582-2008. Applications can be downloaded from
www.pinellascounty.org/flrstcare.
Sen. Latvala honored
with Moffitt Momentum Award
CLEARWATER- State Sen. Jack Latvala of Clearwater recently received
the 2014 Moffitt Momentum Award during Moffitt's annual Business of
Biotech Conference. The award was created by Moffitt Cancer Center as a
way to honor leaders in the community who have championed the efforts of
Moffitt and cancer research.
It is given to those public servants '"whose tireless efforts have benefitted
the entire institution over the years, and in turn, who have made a differ-
ence in the lives of those individuals battling cancer in Florida," said Dr.
Alan List, President and CEO of Moffitt Cancer Center.
Sen. Latvala was instrumental in passing legislation in 2012 to increase
Moffitt's share of Florida's cigarette taxes. The additional funding that tax
provided to Moffitt enabled the institution to begin construction on its new
McKinley Avenue campus, which is scheduled for a 2015 grand opening.
The facility will create hundreds of jobs and will give Moffitt expanded ca-
pacity to treat many more cancer patients.

The Fear of the


unknown for kids

Sometimes fear and anxiety
can get the best of us. It can
cause us to lose sleep, not think Mom 2 Mom
straight and even get physically Kadi Hendricks
sick. Tubbs
I know this because one of W
my daughters recently had what
I would consider pretty bad
anxiety issues. Her anxiety was related to school and all the tests
students have to take these days.
You have to realize this is a kid who loves school and gets all A's,
but something was stressing her out.
She actually got physically sick. For almost a month, she would
get nauseous before going to school.
There wasn't anything I could do that would make it better. I
went over our daily routine and evaluated if there were any big
changes in our lifestyle that would cause this. Everything seemed
pretty routine and things at school were fine, but for some reason
her anxiety was building.
We thought at first it was maybe a milk allergy that she devel-
oped. But I stopped giving her milk for breakfast and she was still
getting sick.
As a parent, seeing my daughter like this made me sad. She
would tell me, "Mom, I don't want to be like this, but I can't help it."
The things she worried about were things like taking a test, not
knowing if she did her homework right, not knowing if her teacher
was going to be at class or if there was going to be a substitute. All
of these things stressed her out and gave her anxiety. The fear of
the unknown was what she was afraid of.
Since then, I have found out that a lot of kids have anxiety issues
like hers. I talked to fellow classmates' moms and even to some of
my neighbors and found that she wasn't the only one going through
this. Not all of the other kids had it to the point of getting sick, but
they had other issues they were dealing with from the anxiety.
Some of them were acting out on their siblings and others were just
sad, not wanting to do anything.
I was fortunate that I have a friend who does counseling and she
helped me get to the bottom of this anxiety problem with my daugh-
ter. My friend said her daughter had gone through this before and
that there were some things I could do to help her overcome this
anxiety.
One of the exercises we did was naming her anxiety the "Fear
Monster." We had her draw this "Fear Monster" on a piece of paper
really big and on the bottom of the paper draw a picture of herself
small. We had her write all the things the "Fear Monster" would say
to her. After she drew that picture, on another piece of paper we
had her draw herself big and the fear monster small.
We looked at those fears and my daughter realized that they were
just lies.
The things she was worried about, like failing a test, was a lie, be-
cause she never failed a test. She was worried about people saying
mean things to her, but no one ever said mean things to her. She
was worried about her teacher not being there and having a mean
substitute, but she had never had a mean substitute. She figured
out that she was worrying about things that she didn't need to
worry about.
We did other techniques that included visualizing what she was
afraid of and overcoming it by being brave and conquering her fear.
I heard a statistic that 90 percent of the things we worry about
don't ever end up happening anyway, so why worry. Most of the
time, worrying about something can't change the outcome.
I know we all go through this at some point in our life. I know I
worried in the past. I am glad that my daughter is realizing how to
deal with fear and anxiety at a young age. She is doing great now
and the "Fear Monster" has been put to sleep.

BOOK FAIR, from page 1A
New York in 2000 to realize her
lifelong dream of becoming a
celebrity publicist. She started
out representing consumer
goods, and sports teams and
figures, and worked her way up
to musicians and actors.
"I was a publicist for Whitney
Houston during her whole
'crack is whack' interview,"
Myers said. "I said to my boss, 'I
don't think this is a good idea. I
think she still has a drug prob-
lem.' But she didn't listen to
me."
Other artists she worked with
included Diana Krall, Billy
Gilman, and Oscar-nominee
Jeremy Renner, and she also
worked on the movie "X-Men 2."
She started doing stand-up in
2002, using her life as a publi-
cist to the stars as material.
"I was doing standup on side
in addition to my PR career,"
she said. "I thought it was a
good way to get things off your
chest without getting fired for
them."
In 2003, she wrote an off-off-
Broadway show, "Like a Publi-
cist" "I always idolized
Madonna," she said.
"It wasn't just about being
funny," she said. "I wanted to
send a message, showing the
machine behind how people got

famous."
She eventually came back to
Florida, and her mother sug-
gested she go to school to be-
come a librarian.
"I just always loved reading,"
Myers said. "I've always been a
writer and I've always loved sto-
ries."
She applied for the University
of South Florida's master's pro-
gram in library science and
began taking courses online.
Not long after, in 2010, while
still enrolled, she moved to Los
Angeles, where she continued to
do stand-up. She also got in-
volved with fundraising for and
promotion of the West Holly-
wood Library, and performed at
several events leading up to its
construction.
"It was one of the greatest
joys of my life," she said.
Myers returned to St. Peters-
burg again in 2012. Since then,
she's been focusing on her
stand-up, encouraging literacy
with her literary comedy shows,
and, of course, promoting the
Florida Antiquarian Book Fair.
She's also launched Stand Up
Librarian Designs, where she
makes and sells book-themed
accessories.

This is a comment that we fre-
quently hear. What exactly does
"just getting old" really mean?
Does it mean that the ailments of
older pets shouldn't be a con-
cern? We hope not! Pets are un-
able to communicate that they
are hurting and will instinctively
hide their pain as a survival
mechanism to prevent other
predators from viewing them as
weak or vulnerable. A behavior
that's protective in the wild can
be problematic in the home, mak-
ing it difficult for owners to know
when a pet is in pain. For years,
people mistakenly assumed that
because pets didn't show pain,
they didn't feel pain. Now we
know that simply isn't true. Their
nervous systems are relatively
similar to that of humans, so it
stands to reason that what is
painful for people is probably
painful for pets.
Veterinarians are super
sleuths! They can tell if a pet is
hurting by putting together a few
clues. For example, an examina-
tion may show that the hind leg
muscles of a dog have become at-
rophied (shrunken) and that he is
flat-footed in the front. This indi-
cates that he is shifting the ma-
jority of his weight from his back
legs to his front legs, which then
cause his carpi (wrists) to hyper-
extend. Even though he may not

be whining or crying out, he is
shifting the weight because his
back legs are painful. In this
case, the most likely diagnosis
would be arthritis.
Those clues may be difficult for
a pet owner to assess, but what
about the following?
Does your older pet get up
slower from a resting position? Is
he unable to jump like he used
to? Does he limp after exercise?
Does he not want to walk as far
or sleep more than usual? Any
one of these signs could point to
arthritis.
Luckily, there are many treat-

meant options now available for
dogs and cats suffering from
arthritis.
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflanmma-
tory Drugs (NSAIDs): Rimadyl,

duce inflammation and provides
pain relief.
Supplements: Glucosamine,
Chondroitin, Omega 3 Fatty

Other Pain Medications: Tra-

Arthritis is just one of the
many conditions that we share
with our pet companions. Other
conditions include diabetes,

allergies to environmental aller-
gens, dental infections with pain,
tumors, arthritis, trauma, deaf-
ness, blindness, ear and skin in-
fections, corneal ulcers,
glaucoma, and the list goes on
and on.
What other clues should you
be on the lookout for?
Drinking and/or urinating


more than normal (accidents in
the house)
Coughing
Exercise intolerance (gets
tired quickly after walking or ex-
ercise)
Vomiting and/or diarrhea
Difficulty chewing
Tumors (lumps/bumps)
WeightlLoss (always signifi-
cant if it is not intended espe-
cially in cats)
Dental disease can be a major
contributing factor of weight loss
in elderly pets. Many of these
pets won't show any evidence
that their mouth is painful be-
cause they compensate by chew-
ing on the other side. In fact,
after thorough dental procedures
to resolve the pain and infection
have been performed, many own-
ers often report the emergence of
a "different" pet. They just hadn't
realized how much their pet had
been hurting.
As with humans, our elderly
companion pets need and de-
serve more care and comfort in
their golden years. We have so
much more to offer them...and
them to us!

Tampa Bay Newspapers fan, Buddy, is
the March pet photo of the month
winner. This 9-year-old Maltese-poodle
mix lives in Treasure Island with his
human family, Saray and Lou Bonsey.
They live on the bike trail, so they put
out fresh water for their canine friends
who use the trail. He likes to bark at
every dog he sees on the trail, but he also
barks at dogs on TV. He loves people,
including children, but when they see his
underbite, sometimes they get scared,
even though he's really a big softie. Every
morning he picks up the newspaper and
brings it in the house for his dad. He
loves sharing their bed at night as well as
taking car rides with mom and walks in
the park. As the pet of the month winner,

IRS actions cry


for public scrutiny

Former IRS official Lois Lerner invoked her Fifth Amendment right
Wednesday not to incriminate herself when she testified before the
House Oversight and
Government Reform
Committee hearing on -
the IRS targeting of
tea party groups. Debra
Oddly, the news
media and Democratic Saunders
leaders don't think it's
a big deal when a fed- --
eral official Lerner
was the head of the
unit that deals with tax-exempt organizations when she first invoked
the Fifth last May won't answer questions about her actions as a fed-
eral official, but they are in a huff because the committee's chairman,
Darrell Issa, abruptly called an end to the hearing and shut off the mi-
crophone.
Ranking Democrat Elijah Cummings said he wanted to ask "a pro-
cedural question." Then, as Cummings instead engaged in a rant in
defense of Lerner, Issa again shut off the mic. Within a minute, it was
back on, and Cummings continued to rail against what he sees as a
one-sided investigation.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi later tweeted that Issa's "deci-
sion to silence a fellow Member of Congress was outrageous and disre-
spectful." The Washington Post's Dana Milbank denounced Issa for
falling below "today's low standard of civility in Congress."
Issa exhibited shoddy manners. Worse, he lacked the discipline to
not be baited by the crafty Cummings. Thus, Issa handed the left an
excuse to make him the issue when the Internal Revenue Service's
practice of going after the tea party cries out for public scrutiny. Lern-
er's refusal to answer questions, though it is the exercise of a constitu-
tional right, should make all House members squirm.
Just what was Lerner doing on the taxpayer dime that she doesn't
want to share?
Lerner's silence is especially unsettling given that her attorney
William Taylor III told reporters that she had given a full interview to
the Department of Justice with no grant of immunity. Lerner's lawyers,
he said, have confidence that prosecutors, unlike Issa, are open-mind-
ed. The thing is that also unlike Issa, the Department of Justice is in a
position to prosecute people.
"It does strike me as a little odd," Rutgers law professor George
Thomas III told The Wall Street Journal. "One explanation is the one
given by her lawyer. The other, darker explanation is that she and her
lawyer think the DOJ is not interested in a serious investigation of the
IRS treatment of these tax-exempt groups."
Could it be that Lerner's lawyers do not fear the often-terrifying Jus-
tice Department precisely because President Barack Obama already
signaled there is no cause for concern because the IRS story is a
"phony scandal"?
Similarly, the president signaled his disdain for conservative non-
profits during the 2010 and 2012 election seasons. Lo and behold, the
IRS started to put conservative tax-exempt organizations on the slow
track and under a microscope.
Last year, Lerner admitted that after the IRS saw an uptick in appli-
cations for social welfare organizations in 2010, staff began screening
for groups that used terms such as 'Tea Party" and "Patriots." She
even apologized. 'That was wrong. That was absolutely incorrect, in-
sensitive and inappropriate. That's not how we go about selecting
cases for further review," Lerner said.
She also claimed that IRS staffers did not target tea party patriot
types "because of any political bias. They did it because they were
working together. This was a streamlined way for them to refer to the
cases."
That is, it was convenient.
I do not believe that claim. I don't know many liberals who actually
believe it, either. I do believe that if the Bush administration's IRS had
targeted social welfare groups that used terms such as "anti-war" and
"torture," the left would have wanted to investigate. They would have
wanted to know whether the IRS policy had come from the White
House. And they wouldn't have given a pass to officials who took the
Fifth.
Milbank is put out that Issa "forced" Lerner to invoke her right
against self-incrimination "no fewer than 10 times." Apparently, it
would be the gentlemanly thing for Issa to allow Lerner to maintain a
version of events that defies credulity without answering to the Ameri-
can public.
Ignorance is bliss.

LETTERS


Restrict kite surfing
Editor
I read with interest Mr. Updegrove's letter about the injuries inflicted
by the kite suffer suffered to the lady walking the beach. He is abso-
lutely right and they should be banned to restricted areas such as out
in Fort De Soto.
Many times I have watched them at Pass-A-Grille as they come into
the shore only to race back out into the gulf. Of greater concern is the
speed at which they travel on the water, and it will only be a period of
time until one speeds over an unsuspecting swimmer causing fatal in-
juries, and no doubt a lawsuit to the city of St. Pete or Treasure Island.

Just trying to cross the road
Editor
Motorists, I am not a crazy lady standing at an intersection, waving
a bag. I am a senior, who is trying to cross the road and not get that
"rundown feeling." Also, I believe that I do have the right of way at in-
tersections when the walk sign is lit. When I have to jump out of your
way, when you're making a right on red, you are taking time out of the
60 seconds that a pedestrian gets to cross the very busy streets and
roads in Largo.

Are you a stoic? How can you tell?


I'm always searching for better ways to live
my life, or just to get through the average day.
I've flirted with a number of philosophies,
such as Presbyterianism, hedonism, alco-
holism, Buddhism, marriage, Amway, Course
in Miracles and weight-lifting. They all have
their good and bad points.
One view of life that seems to make sense
to me is stoicism. This school of thought was
founded in Athens in the third century B.C. It
later spread to Rome, and gradually came to
be the favorite philosophy of educated Ro-
mans. Unfortunately, the emperor Justinian I
put an end to stoicism and all other religions
except Christianity in 529 A.D. This paved the
way for the Spanish Inquisition, in which
many non-Christians were burned at the
stake. This persecution, in turn, led to John
Lennon's thoughtful ballad, "Imagine," which
pictured a world completely free of any and all
religions. Fat chance for that.
Today I won't burden you with the fine
points of stoicism, because to understand
them you'd have to become a full-fledged
stoic, which would violate the due process
sections of the Constitution. But a few princi-
ples of stoicism are worth noting. One of them
is that we should strive for self-control and
fortitude as a means of defeating destructive
emotions such as envy, fear, anger and jeal-
ousy. You will not find stoics appearing on the
Dr. Phil or Judge Judy TV shows, which spe-
cialize in presenting people who hate each
other's guts and blame God for whatever is
wrong.
One of the most-remembered stoics was
the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. He
ruled from 161 to 180 A.D. Historians tell us
he was one of the better emperors, in that he


A-


3 Driver's Seat
Bob Driver



did not commit random acts of fratricide, in-
cest, or the torture of wartime prisoners, all of
which sports were common among the
Roman hierarchy. However, he did persecute
Christians. Nobody's perfect.
Marcus Aurelius wrote hundreds of
thoughts about how to live. Here's one: "It is
in our power to have no opinion about a
thing, and not to be disturbed in our soul, for
things themselves have no natural power."
Here's another: 'This is the chief thing: Be not
perturbed, for all things are according to the
nature of the universal; and in a little time
you will be nobody and nowhere...."
In trying to list persons who I believe might
be a stoic, I immediately think of Bill Be-
lichick, the head coach of the New England
Patriots football team. Bill has become fa-
mous for his frequent response to sportswrit-
ers' questions, especially inane ones such as,
"Coach, what is your estimate of the Patriots'
chance for a Super Bowl bid?" Belichick pa-
tiently (and unemotionally) answers, 'Well, it
is what it is." He then elaborates by pointing
out the obvious, i.e., "Who knows? We'll do
our best, and accept the results, whatever
they are."
Translated, "It is what it is" could also
mean, "All of life and the universe is out there,
and nobody has much control over it. So let's


move ahead calmly and not get our shorts in
a twist over any of it." Does this mean stoics
must be fatalistic non-responders to the prob-
lems of life? I don't think so. Marcus Aurelius
spent the final years of his life, as emperor,
handling all sorts of problems brought to him
by his subjects for solution. He also success-
fully turned back attacks by Germanic in-
vaders. But he stayed calm while doing so.
I would guess that down through the ages
stoics have tended to drive other people
crazy, just by refusing to fly into a tizzy each
time something goes wrong. Let's say a stoic
named Halley is driving along Ulmerton Road
during rush hour. Another motorist cuts in
front of Hailey just as his wife Marge is put-
ting on fresh lipstick. Halley hits his brakes,
and Marge smears lipstick all over her cheek
and earlobe. She curses the other driver and
expects her husband to join her in her road
rage. But, as a card-carrying stoic, he de-
clines to do so. He stays cool and grateful
that he didn't slam his Honda into the other
guy's car. His calmness turns his wife into a
sputtering nut case. She accuses him of
being a wimp and a wuss. Halley replies, "I'm
neither one. I'm a stoic." His wife soon di-
vorces Halley on the grounds of emotional de-
sertion.
Another manifestation of stoicism is to sim-
ply maintain a stiff upper lip in the face of
pain or adversity. I think we are surrounded
by thousands of stoics who don't even realize
they qualify as such. Many of them are
known as grown-ups. Or tough cookies. Or
just "cool."

Sanity finally prevails in Arizona


I dreamed recently that Arizona had
adopted some draconian laws at the same
time I was contemplating a trip to the state.
In my dream, wanting to learn more about
those laws and other issues, I called the Ari-
zona Office of Tourism and spoke to the
minister of truth.
"Hi, Tom here. I'm thinking about visiting
Arizona, driving from Florida. Do I need a
passport?"
"Not if you are an American citizen. But
keep it handy."
"I understand that Phoenix is considered
to be one of the most polluted cities in the
United States. I'm concerned that I'll get
sick if I stay there for too long."
"You'll get used to it. If not, there are
plenty of places where you can buy drugs,
as long as you're not gay."
"Minister, I read that a few years ago
Mesa was ranked one of the most redneck
cities in America."
"On the basis of what?"
"Percent of the population that didn't
complete high school, the number of Wal-
marts, taxidermists and local gun stores," I
said.
"Keep that to yourself, unless you want to
get shot."
"Mum's the word, sir. The ACLU and oth-
ers have tangled with the state over con-
cerns about rampant racial profiling
stemming from the state's anti-immigrant
laws. Even Mississippi shied away from
adopting such legislation."
"Used to like Mississippi, before the insti-
gators made movies like "0 Brother Where
Art Thou?" and 'The Help."

Many members of the associa-
tion were appreciative of the event
because it corrected misinforma-
tion they had heard about Mor-
mons.
"This is one of the main reasons
the St. Petersburg Interfaith Asso-
ciation sponsors events similar to
this one to correct misunder-
standings and to eliminate mis-
trust so that we can all dwell
together in harmony and mutual
respect," Cook said.

Top Five Diversions

"A Bad Year for Tomatoes," by John Patrick, March 13
through May 4, at Early Bird Dinner Theatre, 13355 49th
St. N., Clearwater. Evening performances are presented Fri-
days, Saturdays and Sundays, with seating at 4 p.m. Mati-
nees are presented Thursdays and Saturdays, with seating
at 11 a.m. Cost is $29.90 which includes dinner and show.
This hilarious comedy deals with the very funny misfortunes
of a famous television actress who seeks to "get away from it
all" in a small New England town. Fed up with the pressures
and demands of her acting career, the famous Myra Marloe
leases a house in New England to write her autobiography.
Dealing with her nosy omnipresent neighbors turns out to
be more difficult than she imagined so she invents a mad
homicidal sister who is kept locked in an upstairs room. The
ruse works well at first until the local handyman develops
an affection for "Sister Sadie" and complications ensue.
"Wally's Cafe," by Sam Bobrick and Ron Clark, March
14-30, at Venue Theatre, 9125 U.S. 19 N., Pinellas Park.
Tickets are $20. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays, 8
p.m.; and Sundays, 2:30 p.m. For reservations, call 822-
6194 or visit venuewebsite.wix.com/venuetheatre. A feel-
good comedy about love, struggle and friendship, "Wally's
Cafe" follows Wally and Louise who have just opened a road-
side diner near Las Vegas in 1940. Their only customer is a
star-struck Midwestern girl hitchhiking her way to Holly-
wood. Four decades later, despite years of struggle, their
hopes, dreams and friendship still survive. "Wally's Cafe"
stars Mary Kay Cyrus, Cory McBride and Mark William
Myers. The play is directed by Frank Kronyak and David
Middleton. The Actors Fund is the designated benefit organi-
zation for this production. The Actors Fund is a nationwide
human services organization that helps all professionals in
performing arts and entertainment serving as a safety net
providing programs and services for those who are in need,
crisis, or transition.
Joan Rivers, Friday, March 14, 7:30 p.m., at Capitol
Theatre, 405 Cleveland St., Clearwater. Tickets start at $65.
Call 791-7400 or visit www.atthecap.com. An entertainment
legend of unparalleled accomplishment and talent, Joan
Rivers is an internationally renowned comedienne, Emmy
Award-winning television talk show host, Tony Award-nomi-
nated actress, bestselling author, playwright, screenwriter,
film director, columnist, lecturer, syndicated radio host, jew-
elry designer, cosmetic company entrepreneur, and red car-
pet fashion laureate. Her continued relevance is made clear
by her growing group of more than 1.5 million followers on
Twitter. Above all things, however, Rivers is a proud mother
and grandmother.
Aaron Neville & Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Saturday,
March 15, 7:30 p.m., at Capitol Theatre, 405 Cleveland St.,
Clearwater. Tickets start at $52. Call 791-7400 or visit
www.atthecap.com. Aaron Neville, whose recent PBS special
showcases him as one of the world's finest singers, is revis-
iting the music he grew up with and adding a few new spins
along the way with his latest record "My True Story."
Neville's first release for Blue Note Records is a collection of
12 classic doo-wop numbers, performed in his utterly inim-
itable vocal style and co-produced by Blue Note president
Don Was and Keith Richards. Neville explains that having
internalized this music so deeply, he was able to show the
musicians the genuine old-school feel that these songs re-
quire.
24th annual Country In The Park, Saturday, March
15, 10 a.m., at England Brothers Park, 5010 81st Ave. N.,
Pinellas Park. Admission is free. The city's annual festival
and trade show will feature musical performances by na-

sale and children's activities. Food and beverages will be

and enjoy the live entertainment. Coolers will not be permit-
ted. For information, call 541-0895.


Compiled by LEE CLARK ZUMPE
A number of new movies will
hit theaters this week, including
the following films opening in
wide release:

'Need for Speed'
Genre: Action
Cast: Aaron Paul, Imogen
Poots, Dominic Cooper, Ramon
Rodriguez, Rami Malek, Harrison
Gilbertson, Scott 'Kid Cudi' Mes-
cudi, Michael Keaton and Dakota
Johnson
Director: Scott Waugh
Rated: PG-13
From DreamWorks Pictures
comes "Need for Speed," a viscer-
al and evocative return to the
great car-culture movies of the
'60s and 70s. Tapping into the
significance of the car and the
open road in American car cul-
ture and the freedom and individ-
ualism with which they both
provide, the film is a story of
honor, friendship and loyalty and
the testosterone-fueled journey of
one man looking for revenge and,
ultimately, redemption.
For Tobey Marshall (Aaron
Paul), who runs his family's auto
shop and races the underground
street circuit with his buddies on
weekends, life is good. But his
whole world is turned upside
down when he is sent to prison
for a crime he didn't commit. In
prison, he spends the next two
years thinking about one thing:
vengeance. While questioning the
morals to which he has always
adhered, he is nevertheless deter-
mined to bring down his enemies
... no matter what the cost.
Based on the eponymous car-

Cohn combines the precision of a brilliant tunesmith with the passion

with the poignant, and able to distill universal truth out of his often ro-
mantic, drawn-from-life tales. His career took off in 1990 with the
recording of his critically acclaimed, self-titled debut disc, which yield-
ed such classics as Grammy Award-winning "Walking In Memphis,"
"Silver Thunderbird" and 'True Companion."

Tickets start at $29.50. Call 791-7400 or visit

forming hard-driving rock and roll this year. Ever since their first gig at
Lane Hall on the campus of The University of Delaware in 1973, the
band has traveled the world with its brand of "Booze and Boogie
Rock." A mainstay on classic rock radio with hits like "One Bourbon,
One Scotch, One Beer," "Move It On Over," "Who Do You Love," "Bad
To The Bone," "I Drink Alone," "Get A Haircut" and "You Talk Too
Much," the band has kept up a grinding pace performing for a loyal
fan base the world over and, after 40 years, there is no sign of slowing
down. Thorogood and the band are busy working on a new album to
be released early next year. They will once again join forces with
Nashville producer Tom Hambridge, who worked with the band on the
critically acclaimed record "2120 South Michigan Avenue," a tribute to
the Chicago blues label Chess Records. This time the project will con-
sist entirely of original material songs that demonstrate the broad
reach of Thorogood's songwriting, with some titles going back to the
beginning of his recording career.

405 Cleveland St., Clearwater. Tickets start at $29. Call 791-7400
or visit www.atthecap.com. Like the fine wines that are his hobby,
Al Stewart's gifts as a singer and songwriter have matured and
ripened over the course of his musical career, stretching from the
early '60s to the present and beyond. He is best known for "Year of
the Cat" which was released in 1976 and spawned two Top 20 hits,
the title song and "On the Border" which became a million-selling
record. As he nears the 20-album mark, Stewart remains a distinc-
tively literate and vivid storyteller, time traveling and teleporting
himself and his listeners from World War I battlefields to '60s bed-
rooms, from ships to airplanes to ice floes, from the specific to the
mysterious.

lucrative art theft with his un-
trustworthy brother, Nicky (Matt
Dillon).
Reassembling the old team,
Crunch comes up with a plan to
steal a priceless historical book,
but the successful heist leads to
another far riskier plan devised
by Nicky. They fail to realize each
other's separate agendas when
their plan goes awry in this con
movie about honor, revenge and
the bonds of brotherhood.

'Better Living
Through Chemistry'
Genre: Dark comedy
Cast: Sam Rockwell, Olivia
Wilde, Michelle Monaghan, Nor-
bert Leo Butz, Ben Schwartz, Ken
Howard, Jen Harris, Peter Jacob-
son, Harrison Holzer, Ray Liotta
and Jane Fonda
Director: Geoff Moore and
David Posamentier
Not rated
A small town pharmacist's un-
eventful life is turned inside out
when a chance encounter with a
lonely trophy wife turns into a
walk on the wild side in the mur-
derously funny dark comedy,
"Better Living Through Chem-
istry."
Doug Varney (Sam Rockwell) is
the model of suburban re-
spectability until the night he
delivers a prescription to the
home of Elizabeth Roberts (Olivia
Wilde). Gorgeous, seductive and
multiply addicted, Elizabeth ea-
gerly introduces Doug to extra-
large martinis, uninhibited
bedroom behavior and the illicit
pleasures of the pharmacopeia he
has access to in his store.
Disregarded for years by every-
one from his domineering wife
Kara (Michelle Monaghan) and
troubled son Ethan (Harrison
Holzer), to the goldbricking em-
ployees at the drugstore he
bought from his insufferable fa-
ther-in-law (Ken Howard), Doug
surprises himself by embarking
on an exhilarating drug-and-alco-
hol fueled affair with the most
glamorous woman he has ever
met.
But his extracurricular activi-
ties quickly send his life spinning
out of control when a routine
DEA audit reveals serious dis-
crepancies in his inventory. Con-
vinced he's about to lose
everything, Doug hatches an ill-
considered scheme with Eliza-
beth that will allow them to have
it all at an almost unthinkable
price.

'The Den'
Genre: Thriller
Cast: Melanie Papalia, Adam
Shapiro, David Schlactenhaufen
and Matt Riedy
Director: Zach Donahue
Nor rated
After receiving a grant for her
graduate thesis, Elizabeth Benton


(Melanie Papalia) logs onto a
video-chat site known as The
Den, on a mission to explore the
habits of its users.
During one of her random
video-chats, Elizabeth watches in
horror as a teenage girl is grue-
somely murdered in front of her
webcam.
While the police dismiss it as a
viral prank, Elizabeth believes
what she saw is real and takes it
upon herself to find the truth.
Her life quickly spirals out of con-
trol as she gets pulled deeper into
the darkest recesses of the Inter-
net. And eventually, Elizabeth
finds herself trapped in a twisted
game in which she and her loved
ones are targeted for the same
grisly fate as the first victim.

'Enemy'
Genre: Psychosexual thriller
Cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Melanie
Laurent, Sarah Gadon and Is-
abella Rossellini
Director: Denis Villeneuve
Rated: R
Jake Gyllenhaal reteams with
director Denis Villeneuve in this
sexy and hypnotically surreal
psychological thriller that
breathes new life into the doppel-
ganger tradition.
Adam Bell (Gyllenhaal) is a
glum, disheveled history profes-
sor, who seems disinterested
even in his beautiful girlfriend,
Mary (Laurent). Watching a movie
on the recommendation of a col-
league, Adam spots his double, a
bit-part actor named Anthony
Clair, and decides to track him
down. The identical men meet
and their lives become bizarrely
and irrevocably intertwined. Gyl-
lenhaal is transfixing as both
Adam and Anthony, provoking
empathy as well as disapproval
while embodying two distinct per-
sonas. With masterfully con-
trolled attention to detail,
Villeneuve takes us on an enig-
matic and gripping journey
through a world that is both fa-
miliar and strange and hard to
shake off long after its final, un-
nerving image.

'Le Week-End'
Genre: Drama
Cast: Jim Broadbent, Lindsay
Duncan, Jeff Goldblum, Oily
Alexander and Judith Davis
Director: Roger Michel
Rated: R
Academy Award winner Jim
Broadbent and Lindsay Duncan
give exquisite performances as
Nick and Meg, a long-married
British couple revisiting Paris for
the first time since their honey-
moon in an attempt to rekindle
their relationship.
During a two-day escapade,
diffident, wistful Nick and de-
manding, take-charge Meg ca-
reen from harmony to
disharmony to resignation and
back again as they take stock of
half a lifetime of deep tenderness

- and even deeper regret. A sur-
prise invitation from Nick's old
friend Morgan (Jeff Goldblum), an
amusingly boorish American aca-
demic with a fancy Parisian ad-
dress, soon leads them to an
unexpectedly hopeful vision of
what their love and marriage
might still become.
This magically buoyant, bitter-
sweet comedy drama, starring
two of Britain's national treas-
ures, is a new peak in the ongo-
ing collaboration between
screenwriter Hanif Kureishi and
director Roger Michell.

Breathe Carolina takes the stage March 15 at the State Theatre in St. Petersburg.

Breathe Carolina to play State Theatre


ST. PETERSBURG Breathe Carolina will hit
the stage Saturday, March 15, at State Theatre,
687 Central Ave.
Doors will open 7 p.m. Tickets are $15. Call
895-3045 or visit www.statetheatreconcerts.com.
Breathe Carolina officially was established in
2006 but, in a sense, the band's beginnings go
all the way back to the 1980s when two key
founding members entered the world. Kyle Even
and David Schmitt, born in 1985 and 1988 re-
spectively, both decided to explore a career in
music at an early age. They both spent their
formative years playing in several Colorado-
based music groups. Even, a vocalist, joined the
band Rivendale while Schmitt, a guitarist, per-
formed with As the Flood Waters Rose. The two
bands frequently played together. When other
members of the bands departed for college, Even
and Schmitt partnered to form Breathe Carolina.
The band recorded the extended play "Gossip"
in 2007. The self-released EP was available ex-
clusively on iTunes. They followed up with the
album "It's Classy, Not Classic" in 2008, along
with a supporting tour.
Since first bursting on to the scene in 2008,
Breathe Carolina has struck an inimitable
alchemy between electronic music and rock, ac-
cording to a biography provided by Fearless


Records. Their distinctive sound keeps them
ahead of the curve and facilitated the their plat-
inum-selling 2011 breakout single "Blackout"
from the album "Hell Is What You Make It." The
song reached 17 on the U.S. Mainstream Top 40
chart while the album peaked at 42 on the U.S.
Billboard 200.
The band's follow-up, "Savages," sees the band
once again treading boldly into fresh territory,
delving heavier into the electronic dance world
while staying true to their rock roots. The result-
ing combination sounds equally at home in a
club, or lighting up packed fields at Warped
Tour. The album, set for release in April, features
guest vocals from pop artists Karmin and rock
frontmen Danny Worsnop of Asking Alexandria
and Tyler Carter of Issues. "Savages" solidifies
the band's unique ability to straddle multiple
musical styles and blend it into a sound all their
own, a sound that is as infectious as it is eu-
phoric.
Even left the band in 2013 to focus on his new
role as a father. Schmitt has taken over both vo-
cals and guitars. Joining Schmitt on tour will be
Luis Bonet, programming and keyboards; Eric
Armenta, drums; and Tommy Coops, guitar.
Also on the bill will be Jonny Craig, Ghost
Town and Divided By Friday.

Entries sought for film festival
ST. PETERSBURG Professional and amateur
filmmakers are encouraged to submit entries for
this year's Blue Ocean Film Festival, set for Nov.
3-9, 2014, headquartered at Hilton St. Peters-
burg Bayfront.
Entries will be accepted through April 28. For
information, including the official rules, visit
www.blueoceanfilmfestival.org.
Films may be entered in 22 categories, such as
animation, conservation innovation, foreign lan-
guage, marine sciences and the Tampa Bay K-12
category, which showcases films created by
Tampa Bay area school students. BLUE Ocean
organizers anticipate receiving up to 400 entries.
Festival events will be presented in St. Peters-
burg as well as in Sarasota and Tampa during
the weeklong festival.
The Blue Ocean Film Festival has been recog-
nized for helping launch some of technology's
hottest tools, including Google's Oceans Street
View and the 360-degree camera used to capture
images of Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Google is
expected to make another product announce-
ment during this year's St. Petersburg event.
The festival is one of the biggest environmental
documentary film events in the world. It is pre-
sented annually in the United States and Mona-
co. This year's festival is expected to draw around
20,000 people. Last year, festival organizers an-
nounced the event would move to St.
Petersburg from Monterey, Calif, and host the
festival in even-numbered years starting in 2014.
The festival returns to Monaco in odd-numbered
years beginning in 2015. HSH Prince Albert of
Monaco is a major supporter of BLUE Ocean.
'American Monkey'
casting revealed
ST. PETERSBURG Casting has been an-
nounced for freeFall Theatre's upcoming produc-
tion of the world premiere staging of Mikhel
Raud's comedy "American Monkey," which will
open March 15 and run through March 30, at
6099 Central Ave.
Directed by freeFall artistic director Eric Davis,
the cast will star Patrick Ryan Sullivan, Chris
Jackson, Stefanie Clouse and John Lombardi.
This all-new play is a look at what it takes to
become a celebrity in the United States in 2014.
This dark comedy is set at the auditions for reali-
ty television's most popular talent contest, Ameri-
can Superstar. After a few singers pass through
to the next level (there will be a signup before
each performance for audience members wanting
to sing in front of the fictional judges) a young
man (Jackson) enters the studio and decides to
turn the tables on the judges (Sullivan, Clouse
and Lombardi) and put them and the entertain-
ment industry on trial in his own warped version
of Rome's Colosseum. The audience will get to
choose (by text) which of the judges tragically get
to go on to the next round.
"American Monkey" questions the very idea of
contemporary entertainment and fame in a brash
and uncompromising way that calls to mind the
style of director and writer Quentin Tarantino.
This show contains adult language and situa-
tions and is intended for mature audiences only.
Tickets can be purchased at www.freefallthe-
atre.com or by calling the freeFall Theatre box of-
fice at 498-5205.

Beacon Leader Bee,
We would like to thank you for your services and the professionalism that your
staff displays. The customer service that the staff provides to us here at Dontons
Construction of Florida Inc. exceeds all expectations. In a sluggish economy, the
best investment that we at Dontons Construction of Florida Inc. could have made
was to advertise in the Beacon Leader Bee. The response that we have received from
the ad that we placed with your paper has been astonishing.
Having the ability to reach such a wide area with the customer base that the Bea-
con Leader Bee has established has proven successful and has had a great impact
on the growth of Dontons Construction of Florida Inc. over the past year. We would
recommend to everyone who is in business to advertise with your papers; it truly is
the best return for the investment. We sincerely appreciate all that you do.
Thank you.

'Time Passages'


Folk-rock icon Al Stewart to perform at Clearwater's Capitol Theatre


Entertainment 9B


CLEARWATER In late 1970s, Al Stewart's multi-
million-selling singles "Year of the Cat" and 'Time
Passages" were omnipresent on the FM radio dial.
These two commercially successful hits represent
only a fraction of this singer-songwriter folk-rock
musician's total body of work.
Stewart will give audiences a taste of his musi-
cianship Saturday, March 22, 7:30 p.m., at Capitol
Theatre, 405 Cleveland St., Clearwater.
Tickets start at $29. Call 791-7400 or visit
www.atthecap.com.
Guitarist Dave Nachmanoff and bassist Mike Lin-
dauer will accompany Stewart.
Like the fine wines that are his hobby, Stewart's
gifts as a singer and songwriter have matured and
ripened over the course of his musical career,
stretching from the early '60s to the present. He
may be best known for the 1976 album "Year of the
Cat," which spawned two Top 20 hits, the title song
and "On the Border." Not one to rest on his laurels,
Stewart is nearing the 20-album mark, and remains
a distinctively literate and vivid storyteller, time
traveling and teleporting himself and his listeners
from World War I battlefields to '60s bedrooms, from
ships to airplanes to ice floes, from the specific to
the mysterious.

Background
According to a biography provided by Skyline
Music, Al Stewart was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in
1945. He was still very young when his family relo-
cated to Bournemouth, a seaside town in the South
of England. As it turned out, it was in Bournemouth
that Stewart purchased his first guitar in the 1960s.
Stewart bought that particular instrument from
Andy Summers, who would go on to become the
lead guitarist of The Police. Robert Fripp, who later
formed the prog-rock band King Crimson, taught
Stewart his first guitar licks.
By age 16, Stewart was playing guitar in a variety
of local bands.
"In 1963 The Beatles were breaking out in Eng-
land," Stewart said in the liner notes to "Greatest
Hits," a collection issued by Rhino Records in 2004.
"I wanted to be Al Beatle. Along came the Rolling
Stones and I wanted to be Keith Richards."
Then Stewart heard Bob Dylan's original songs.
His reaction must have resembled a musical
epiphany because Stewart completely shifted his
focus from instrumentalist to lyricist and vocalist.
In 1965, Stewart moved to London where he got a
gig as emcee at the Les Cousins, a well-known folk
club. There, he met emerging artists such as Paul
Simon, Ralph McTell, Bert Jansch and Cat Stevens.
He soon started writing and performing his own
songs, first at Les Cousins and later at other folk
clubs and colleges across England. He became asso-
ciated with a number of folk-oriented groups such
as the Incredible String Band, Fairport Convention
and The Pentangle.
In 1967, Stewart released his debut album, "Bed-
sitter Images." The album showcased the folk-rock
musician's knack for observational storytelling.
Most tracks utilized a full orchestra and featured or-
chestration by Irish composer and conductor
Alexander Fanris. The follow-up album, 1969's "Love
Chronicles," featured a number of prominent sup-
porting musicians such as Jimmy Page (of Led Zep-
pelin) and four members of Fairport Convention.
Over the next few years, Stewart would record
and release two more albums- "Zero She Flies" in
1970 and "Orange" in 1972 written autobiographi-
cal mode. Then, in 1973, his focus abruptly shifted.
On the album "Past, Present & Future," the
singer-songwriter adjusted his lyrical gaze outward,
contemplating history, literature and current
events. Anchored by historical themes, each song


represents a different decade of the 20th century.
The song "Roads to Moscow," for instance, recounts
the story of the German invasion of Russia during
World War II, shown through the eyes of a Russian
partisan.
Building on the appeal of this album, Stewart
next released "Modern Times." This 1975 album
made it onto the U.S. Top 40 charts and generated
enough interest to justify a full-length U.S. tour.

'Year of the Cat'
In 1976, Al Stewart released "Year of the Cat."
The album generated two Top 20 hits 'Year of
the Cat" and "On the Border" on its way to becom-
ing a million-selling record.
The album was produced and engineered by Alan
Parsons. In addition to the hit singles, the album
also includes tracks such as "Lord Grenville," about
Sir Richard Grenville, an Elizabethan explorer.
The album is widely considered to be Stewart's
masterpiece. Its title track transcends the artist's
folk-rock background with its protracted instrumen-
tal sections. The full-length album version of the
song incorporates an extended series of solos featur-
ing cello, violin, piano, acoustic and distorted elec-
tric guitar, synthesizer and saxophone.
The follow-up album, 'Time Passages," reunited
Stewart and Parsons. The 1978 release mirrored the
success of its predecessor and scored a Top 10 hit
with the title track as well as a Top 30 single with
"Song on the Radio."
Moving into the 1980s, Stewart continued to
record and release albums, though new trends in
music kept his work from receiving as much popu-
lar attention. In the early '90s, Stewart returned to
his folk roots, setting off on a solo tour of the UK. He
also released the album "Famous Last Words,"
which utilized acoustic instrumentation and tradi-
tional folk and classical styles. He followed up with
1995's "Between the Wars," an album featuring
songs set in and themes focusing on the 1920s and
1930s. This album was Stewart's first collaboration
with former Wings guitarist Laurence Juber. He
partnered with Juber again in 2000 for the album
"Down in the Cellar," a concept album cleverly capi-
talizing on Stewart's knowledge of fine wines.
More recently, Stewart released "Uncorked," a live
album recorded with Dave Nachmanoff.
The 2009 album is described as "take a trip
through Stewart's musical back pages, both in
terms of the musical catalogue and in terms of per-
formance style," according to a press release from
Skyline Music.
Stewart reveals that during the height of his suc-

musical back pages.


Al Stewart
cess in the late 1970s, he never felt all that comfort-
able on stage.
"I don't think I ever knew how to be in front of a
band," said Stewart in the press release. "I always
felt I was loitering there while they were doing all the
work."
For "Uncorked," Stewart's first live acoustic disc
since 1992's "Rhymes In Rooms," both the singer-
songwriter and his collaborator made a decision
not to replicate any of the tracks from that disc,
even if it meant leaving off such standards as "On
the Border.
"Because I've learned all of Al's songs, we had
an opportunity to revisit some of the tunes that
hadn't been featured in more recent years," said
Nachmanoff. In fact, Stewart and Nachmanoff are
still apt to mix things up a bit while touring. "I


think at this point, we can actually do three or
four full shows and never play the same songs
twice. And while Al usually comes in to a gig with
a set list in mind, often times, we'll just throw it
out and go with the flow."
If "Uncorked" is any indication of Stewart's new-
found musical freedom, the Capitol Theatre con-
cert will be well-received. The musician's guitar
work is better now than it was back in the day,
thanks to the acoustic touring configuration that
brings his musical contributions more to the fore.
"It's much more enjoyable for me to hear myself
and for the audience to hear the words," said
Stewart. "And the audience seems to agree. The
way I look at it, if I can still get everybody on their
hind legs at the end of show cheering, then I've
won."
