BY GERALD A. ROGOVIN CORRESPONDENT Sarasota County may have found an easy way to go green and save us money. Encouraged by recommen- dations from a grassroots citi- zens group, the county has been studying the possibility of estab- lishing a solar hot-water utility to serve homes and businesses. Twenty citizens met over sev- eral months in workshops under the auspices of Sarasota County Openly Plans for Excellence, a goal-setting organization. They concluded that the county can save residents money by reduc- ing energy costs. Their proposal, submitted to county Public Works, has led to staff recommendations to the board of county commissioners. The SCOPE discussion group set a goal of half of all new resi- dential and commercial build- ings and half of existing build- ings in the county to have work- ing solar water heaters by 2013. SCOPE, a nonprofit organiza- tion established in 2001, brings county residents together “to build understanding of the qual- ities that make (the county) a good place to live, work and raise a family,” according to its 2007 annual report. It has since 2006 organized networking ses- sions, workshops and mentor- ing meetings of citizens examin- ing the community. Gary Patton, energy coordi- nator in the facilities services office of county public works, said that staffers have consid- ered several approaches to encourage the use of solar hot- water systems. Two examples: a utility could be created to install water heaters; or, the existing county utilities department could incorporate a water heater section. They visualize a solar thermal citizens task force that would, as a first step, assume the SCOPE group’s work to advance a program. Expectations Patton said that Orange County works with its area utili- ty on such a program, the only one in the state. But FPL, the area utility, has expressed no interest, even though Gov. Charlie Crist proposed an alter- native energy initiative. The state’s $500 rebate for households that install solar BY BOB MUDGE EDITOR As required by law, Venice City Manager Marty Black and Finance Director Jeff Snyder pre- sented city council a balanced 2008-09 budget Tuesday without an increase in the 2.779 millage rate. The budget includes funds for beach renourishment, the My- akka River Park and enhanced landscaping for the northern Business 41/41 Bypass intersec- tion, among other projects. But, Black and Snyder warn- ed, leaving the rate at its current level could have serious conse- quences in the near future. “What’s different this year,” Black said, “is the impacts of tax reform and economic condi- tions.” Additional tax-cutting mea- sures are expected from the Florida Legislature next year, including the possibility of cap- ping local rates or restricting the amount they can be increased. And, Black said, the economy is not recovering very quickly. That could leave the city without funds to pay for projects being put in the revised compre- hensive plan council has been working on for months. For example, he said, there would be no money for any improvements on the cement plant properties next to the train depot the city has budgeted 1- cent sales surtax revenue to acquire. “Understand you have a very limited budget,” Black said. He and Snyder recommend- ed council adopt a working tax rate of 3.3588 mills to create a “safety margin.” (A mill is $1 per $1,000 of a home’s taxable val- ue.) That rate can be adjusted downward, but not raised, as council goes through the bud- get-adoption process. Flexibility Due to tax-reform measures passed by the Legislature this year and the continuing weak economy, the current millage rate would bring the city about $2 million less revenue next year. The higher rate agreed on for discussion purposes would gen- erate about $100,000 more in 2008-09. Some taxpayers will pay more Beaches get all-clear sign Bypass widening plan gets council OK Council wants board resignations BY BOB MUDGE EDITOR The Venice Airport Advisory Board is still in existence, but some of its members may have attended their last meeting. Several council members have expressed exasperation at the board, which they say has shirked its duty by failing to fol- low directions to re-review the MEA Group’s proposed Airport Master Plan Update and Airport Layout Plan. It also offered no advice regarding the recently published request for qualifica- tions seeking bids from prospec- tive new consultants, they say. “I don’t feel like I’ve gotten my money’s worth in terms of advice,” said Vice Mayor John Moore, one of three members of an ad hoc committee that rec- ommended reconstituting the board in 2005 because it was dysfunctional. He also said the board had polarized the city over the air- port and called e-mails between board members using derogato- ry terms to refer to the airport’s neighbors “childish and irre- sponsible.” He stopped short of calling for the board’s abolition, though, recommending it be put on “probation.” “I would like to suggest that everybody grow up around here and listen to council,” he said, “and if you’re on that board and you don’t feel you can do that, resign.” Council Member Ernie Zavodnyik also was willing to grant the board a brief reprieve, although he said he put the item on council’s agenda with the intent to have the board abol- ished. “For me the time frame is short,” he said — the board members either needed to get a change of attitude or resign. Council Member Sue Lang, who sent mayor Ed Martin an e- mail in December regarding dis- banding and replacing the board, made the motion to do just that. “I feel very strongly it’s too late to salvage this board,” she said. When her motion died for lack of a second, Zavodnyik moved to give the board mem- bers until Aug. 26 to get in line or resign. That motion failed, with Moore, Rick Tacy, John Sim- monds and Vicki Noren voting against it. “The board did give advice on the RFQ,” Simmonds said. “Don’t do it.” BY BOB MUDGE EDITOR Widening of at least a part of the Venice Bypass took a small step forward Tuesday. Venice City Council voted unanimously to ask the Saraso- ta-Manatee Metropolitan Plan- ning Organization to recom- mend to the state a plan to widen the bypass to six lanes from Albee Farm Road south to Gulf Coast Boulevard, including the East Venice Avenue/U.S. 41 Bypass intersection. The plan was one of four pre- sented by Florida Department of Transportation engineer Chris Piazza and Jeff Trim of Wade- Trim, the outside engineers on the project, to try to get the stalled project moving. Expanding the bypass was first studied in the early ’90s, according to MPO Executive Di- rector Michael Howe. It has been no lower on the agency’s priority list than No. 2 since 1994 — it’s currently No. 1 — but the price tag has grown as the years passed, from $10 million-$13 million at the outset to more than $100 million to take it all to six lanes today. That led to the suggestion that the project be done in sec- tions, an idea the MPO adopted. “My recommendation to you today is to break this project apart,” Howe said. “In a lump sum it’s undoable.” Particularly, he said, for an agency that only has about $12 million-$15 million a year to spend. Other choices The plan council endorsed wasn’t the cheapest, though. Option 1 would have widen- ed the bypass from its current six-lane terminus at Bird Bay, transitioning back to four lanes at Gulf Coast Boulevard. Cost: $49.8 million, including $30 mil- lion for right-of-way acquisition. Options 3 and 4 were varia- tions on a theme, widening the bypass from Albee Farm Road to Pineland Avenue, one block north of Gulf Coast Boulevard. The difference in cost — $35 million versus $28.5 million — is because Option 4 involves tak- ing the minimum amount of right of way needed in the area where it’s most expensive — south of East Venice Avenue. “Basically, we’re just building the intersection and transition- ing back as quick as we can,” said Trim. Howe, Piazza and Trim unan- imously recommended Option 2. “I think it gives you the best benefit out of all four alterna- tives,” Piazza said.

FROM THE SOCIALSECURITYADMINISTRATION
Michael J. Astrue, com-missioner of SocialSecurity, has unveiled anew online calculator atwww.socialsecurity.gov/estimator that will provideimmediate and personal-ized benefit estimates tohelp people plan for their
retirement.The Retirement Estima-
tor is tied to a person’sactual Social Securityearnings record and elimi-nates the need to manual-ly key in years of earningsinformation.
The Retirement Estima-tor is interactive, allowingthe user to compare differ-ent retirement options.For example, a person can
change retirement datesor expected future earn-ings. Individuals also canprint out up to three differ-ent scenarios at one time,in addition to informationabout their benefits at age62 (current age if older),full retirement age and age70.
Best of all, the Retire-ment Estimator is secure.The only thing it providesonline is retirement benefitestimates. It does not showthe earnings record infor-mation on which the finalbenefit estimate was calcu-lated, nor does it revealother personal informa-tion.
“The Retirement Estima-tor is just one of many
things we are doing tomake more informationand services people needavailable over the Internet,”Astrue said. “We recentlyunveiled a new home pageat www.socialsecurity.govthat reduces visual clutterand is easier to navigate. Inthe fall, we will introducethe public to our next ini-tiative: a total overhaul ofour online retirementapplication that will reducethe average filing time from45 minutes to about 15minutes.
“These initiatives willhelp us better handle thebaby boomer wave andmake it easier for the pub-lic to do business with usonline.”

ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE CLINICAL RESEARCH TRIAL
BY GREG MARTINSTAFF WRITER
They may have differentprofessions, but a plasticsurgeon, a mortician and atax adviser who are run-ning for the Republicannomination in the District71 state House race thisAugust share some com-mon interests.
All three, surgeon ChrisConstance, mortuary own-er Ken Roberson and taxadviser Richard Santos,hope to keep taxes andinsurance costs low andvalue Southwest Florida’senvironment, but wouldconsider offshore oil drillingto help economic recovery.
But they differ onstrategies and other prior-ities, according to inter-views with the candidates.
All three have never heldpublic office before, but allthree indicated they havebeen considering politicsfor some time. In fact, bothRoberson and Santos haverun, unsuccessfully, forlocal legislative seats with-in the past few years.
The departure of incum-bent state Rep. Mike Grant,R-Port Charlotte, whoannounced he won’t beseeking re-election, createdan opportunity for the can-didates to seek the office,which represents parts of
Sarasota, Charlotte and Leecounties. Grant is runningfor a state Senate seat.
“When Mike Grantdecided to run for theSenate, I had a lot of peo-ple in the community askme to consider running,”said Roberson, owner ofRoberson Funeral Home &Crematory. “After a lot ofthought and prayer, Idecided to do it again.
“I love Florida, I’m opti-mistic about Florida, I’vegot grandkids in this coun-ty, but I think we’re at acrossroads and we need tomake some tough deci-sions,” said Roberson, aFlorida native who grewup in Bradenton.
Constance, a plastic sur-geon who has practiced inPort Charlotte since mov-ing here from New York in1994, said he decided tojoin the race last summer.He said he came to theconclusion “there was aweak field” of candidates.
“I honestly see there’s atremendous need,” he said.“I’ve been thinking aboutthis for the last four years.”
Constance said he alsowatched the politicalcareer of District 72 Rep.Paige Kreegel, R-PuntaGorda, who is also a localmedical doctor.
“Paige Kreegel is anacquaintance of mine and
I saw he was able to servein the Legislature andkeep his practice going —and be a very effective leg-islator,” Constance said.
He said he hopes towork “side-by-side” withKreegel.
Broader agendaWhen Santos first ran for
election in 2006, his primarygoal was to restore the rightsof fathers in child-custodydisputes. He said he experi-enced some of the injusticesin the system after themother of his son was auto-matically granted custody. Ittook him 12 months of liti-gation to regain his parentalrights, he said.
Now, however, Santossaid his interest has broad-ened. Now, he wants torepresent “the commonman” in his district.
“I’m a young, successfulbusinessman myself,” hesaid. “While I can relate tothe common people in ourcommunity, I’m also suc-cessful. My youth and mysuccess, which I achievedwith very little resources,should tell the voters I’mvery capable of being theleader that they need.”
Santos, a tax preparer,runs two Jackson Hewitttax preparation franchises,one in Port Charlotte andone in Lehigh Acres.
He said his experienceas a tax adviser and busi-ness owner makes himqualified to manage thestate’s finances.
Even in 2006, whichwas a banner year for staterevenues, Santos recalledhe warned that the statewas “growing its budgettoo large.” It grew by 18percent that year.
“I argued that was notsustainable (and) wouldlead to cuts that wouldhurt the state,” he said. “Asa financial person and abusiness manager, I wouldhave been more frugal.”
‘Missteps’The Legislature’s move
a year ago to put propertytax-exemption amend-ments to a referendumwere appropriate, Santossaid. That’s because boththe local and state govern-ments “spent a lot ofmoney, put quite simply.”
Now, however, bothgovernments have beendoing “a decent job at cut-ting back,” he said.
Roberson said Amend-ment 1, which doubled thehomestead exemption, was“a good first step,” but moreneeds to be done. He said hesupports additional legisla-tion to go on the Novemberballot that will cap propertytax increases at 5 percent for
nonhomestead properties.Currently, the Save OurHomes Act caps tax increas-es at 3 percent for home-stead properties.
Roberson is also con-cerned, however, that fur-ther cuts will hurt educa-tion funding, somethinghe sees as critical.
“The first thing we needto do is restart our econom-ic engine in Florida,”Roberson said. “One of theways you do that is you havean educated work force, soyou have to make sure thateducation is funded.”
Local governments havehad to make drastic budgetcuts due to the decline inrevenue.
Despite that, Constancethinks local property taxrates are “still too high.”
“I think there’s beensome missteps,” he said.“The medicine we’re havingto take now stems from themistakes made yesterday.”
The budget woes illus-trate a need for “bettercommunication and over-sight,” Constance said.
He said he hopes to notonly communicate withcounty commissioners butalso members of Congress.
DrillingConstance, Santos and
Roberson all said that whilethey value the environmen-
tal resources in SouthwestFlorida, they would consid-er offshore oil drilling.
“I’m big on the environ-ment,” Roberson said. “I’ma native Floridian, bornhere, and know what itwas like years ago.
“At the same time, we’vegot to plan for the future.We’ve got to look at every-thing, nuclear, solar. Off-shore oil drilling is just oneof the things that need tobe considered, as long asit’s done in a way that pro-tects Southwest Florida’scoastline.”
Constance has expressedsome angst over drilling,but is in favor of it.
“We have a whole lot ofoil and natural gas in theGulf, but it may not beeasy to sell to people wholove the beach,” he said ata recent forum.
Constance, in his plat-form, also emphasizes aneed to provide more bor-der security and safeguardthe elderly from caretakerfraud.
“These people are ableto take over complete con-trol of their assets, eventheir homes, and slowly sellthings off until these peo-ple are penniless,” he said.
The winner of the Aug.26 primary will faceDemocrat Betty Gissen-danner in November.

water heaters two monthsago ran out of money. Fivemillion dollars was bud-geted for the current fiscalyear.
Incentives similar to thestate’s range as high as$1,200 elsewhere in theUnited States, according tothe Florida Solar EnergyCenter. Tax and federalcredits are also availablefor installation.
Typically, according toFSEC, hot-water use for afamily of four costs about$70 a day. Patton and oth-ers suggest that such afamily can save 50 to 85percent of the hot-waterportion of its monthly util-ity bill with a solar waterheater. That is, assumingthe back-up heating ele-ment is maintained at 122degrees.
They estimate annualsavings of $200 to $300.
Even more can be savedif the family turns off theback-up, and relies solelyon the sun. That is espe-cially so in summertime,when the sun shineslonger and the back-up isused less.
Rule-of-thumb in theseestimates is that this familyuses an electric dishwasherand clothes washer.
Two types of solar col-lectors are common tosuch programs. They areusually 4 feet by 5 feet and12 inches thick, and cost$3,500 to $5,500 to install.The collector takes upabout 40 square feet ofspace, and includes twotanks that store 80 gallonsof water.
Sunshine hits the col-lector and heats the waterinside. That is circulatedby a pump as the sun’sintensity changes.
Before an incentive ispaid in most programs, thehousehold has to provethat it completed an ener-gy audit, and that a systemwas installed. Incentivesare normally limited toone per property.

in taxes regardless, Blacksaid, because their proper-ty values went up. Thehigher millage rate wouldmean more taxpayerswould see an increase.
Besides the projects tobe funded, the proposedbudget has good news forcity staff: It includes nolayoffs. It would authorize313 city positions, of whichabout 290 are currentlyfilled.
Funding for the extrapositions gives the citysome flexibility, Black said,so the budget would nothave to be amended inorder to hire someone. Italso gives the city somenegotiating room whentalks begin with the em-ployees’ union.

Matters appeared at animpasse until one of theairport board membersspoke.
Walter Hake, a recentappointee, said he felt as ifall three meetings of theboard he has attendedhave been a “waste oftime.” Council should justask all the members toresign so it can make newappointments.
“I’ll be the first one,” hesaid.
Noren made the mo-tion and it passed 5-2, withTacy and Simmonds inopposition.
“I’m out of a job,” saidboard member Jim Leis,who was at the councilmeeting.

Groups sue for ‘nutrient’ limits
BY GERALD ROGOVINCORRESPONDENT
A water treatment plantserving 30,000 SouthwestFlorida residents was shutdown two weeks ago after atoxic blue-green algaebloom on the Caloosahat-chee River threatened theplant’s source water supply.
It was the latest incidentof pollution-fueled bloomsthreatening public health.
Algae blooms have
been fouling SouthwestFlorida beaches, lakes,rivers and springs muchmore in recent months.They were responsible forthe high bacteria countsthat forced the closing ofbeaches at the VeniceFishing Pier, ManasotaKey and Brohard Park.
Every times it rains, run-off from fertilized land-scapes and farms pour fer-tilizer and animal wasteresidue into coastal waters.
Referred to as “nutrients,”these contaminants nour-ish algae blooms.
A lawsuit filed last weekby five statewide environ-mental groups seeks tocompel the U.S. Environ-mental Protection Agencyto set new limits on thenutrient poisoning thattriggers harmful algaeblooms.
The complaint was filedin the U.S. District Courtfor Florida’s NorthernDistrict.
The suit challenges de-lays by the state and theEPA in setting such limits
since 1998.Florida and most other
states have only vague lim-its regulating nutrient pol-lution. The complaintseeks a court order thatrequires the EPA to imposespecific and enforceablelimits for those contami-nates in Florida, as re-quired in the Clean Air Act.
The EPA gave Florida a2004 deadline to set limitsfor nutrient pollution,which the state disregard-
ed. The EPA was supposedto set limits itself. It alsofailed to do so.
“Each time an extensionis granted, it essentiallyguarantees these contami-nates will continue to flowinto our rivers, lakes andoceans,” said Manley Fuller,president of the WildlifeFederation, one of the fivecomplainants.
“That endangers ourwildlife and threatens oureconomy.”

enice Airport Business Asso-ciation President Chuck Schmiel-er made at least one point recent-
ly that everyone should agree with: Thecity of Venice has done a rather poor jobeducating the public about the issuesconcerning the Venice Municipal Air-port.
To be fair, however, a good deal ofinformation has been put out, but it’seither been so technical that lay peoplecan’t understand it or so vague that itcreated confusion that people with anagenda have used to their advantage.
We’re probably going out on a limbpurporting to speak for the people whoare worried about whether their houseis going to be taken away from them, orthe Lake Venice Golf Club is going to bepaved over. But we think we’ve heardthese concerns and others expressed byenough readers in person and throughletters and Let’em Have It calls to have apretty good feel for what the city’s talk-ing points should have been.
Such concerns are glibly dismissedby the airport’s boosters, but they fail torecognize that they don’t have enough
credibility with this group to get themessage through. Also, they don’t graspthat most Venetians don’t have the kindof connection with the airport that theydo.
Most have never used the airport foraviation purposes and never will. Theymay understand intellectually the riskof a crash in a residential area or the rolethe airport would play if a hurricane hit,but neither has happened. Other thaneating at a restaurant there, or perhapsattending an event on the festivalgrounds, they just don’t see the airportas a significant part of their lives. If itdidn’t exist, they wouldn’t miss it.
Sadly, the city has become polarizedover the airport and, in the finest newAmerican tradition, earnest and opendebate have given way to partisanshipand rhetoric. Maybe addressing a fewmyths will help get the discussion backon track.
Myth 1: They’re trying to lengthenthe runways. No, they’re not, whoever“they” may be. No proposal regardingthe airport has included lengtheningeither runway. Accommodating Federal
Aviation Administration standardscould infringe on the Lake Venice GolfClub, but to enlarge the safety zone, notto make the runway longer.
One potential solution to the problemof a runway protection zone extendingover the Gulf Shores neighborhood is tolengthen runway 13/31, but only at theCircus Bridge end, while shortening theusable length at the western end, keepingit at 5,000 feet total but ending the RPZshort of Gulf Shores.
Myth 2: Homes in the Gulf Shoresneighborhood are going to be confiscat-ed because they are in a runway protec-tion zone. While the FAA does some-times fund the purchase of properties inthis situation, the decision to take themhas to be made by the city, which strikesus as political suicide. It’s very likely aless drastic solution will satisfy theagency.
Myth 3: VMA is a B-II airport in C-IIclothing. As we understand it, thesedesignations refer not the the amountof traffic at an airport but rather the sizeof the planes it can accommodate. Withtwo mile-long runways built for training
pilots in World War II, VMA can handlesome pretty big aircraft. And, from whatwe’ve seen, the city has no authority toreject planes that fit on the runways.
Now, that’s not the same as encour-aging more use of the airport, but thebusiness community and the city areboth looking to make more money fromit somehow — businesses becausethat’s what they do and the city becausethe airport is supposed to be self-sus-taining.
It’s not likely to come from more airtravel; the number of take-offs andlandings appears to be way down post-Sept.11 and in a time of sky-high gasprices. That probably means more busi-ness growth, and city council is onrecord supporting more commerce inthe arena area.
There’s a lot more to the airport issuethan these three myths, but if we canput them to rest, maybe we can moveon to some subjects that really deserveattention.
Next, though, we’ll take a look atsome things the airport’s detractors arein denial about.

So the good news is thatMarty Black is stayinglonger. The bad news it isonly for three days, Aug. 11till to handle one issue thatwas outstanding.
******Mayor Ed Martin made
a good point about the air-port that I have mentionedoutside my column butfailed to mention in mycolumn.
Many think that thenew council members arethe only ones who havenot been pleased with theAirport Master Plan Up-date by MEA. However, theprevious council returnedthe MPU to the AirportAdvisory Board for somesuggestions and changes.

They decided in 2000 tosee what each other look-ed like at the change of themillennium, so we heldone then, which was our38th. My high schoolsweetheart passed awaythis year, so it will not bequite so enjoyable.

This was particularlybrave since the membersof the committee werefrom Venice. Englewoodhad the best record intournament play.

When we voted for the1-cent sales surtax, wewere told that there was avery specific list of thingsthat we were voting for. Ohsure, there were a fewthings open-ended, likesidewalks and parks, butby and large it was for spe-cific capital expenditures.
Now the county is con-sidering how the 1-centsales surtax can be usedfor the Boston Red Sox.Nowhere do I remembervoting for a Major LeagueSpring Training stadiumfor the Red Sox or anyoneelse.
I guess they figured ifthey had the money downfor the fairgrounds andthey built a stadium on thefairgrounds, that meantwe approved it for thatpurpose. On the otherhand, maybe we thought“fairgrounds” had some-thing to do with the fairand its facilities. Heckmaybe it will, when it is allsaid and done.
Robarts Arena needs tobe replaced a lot morethan we need the Red Sox.We use that facility 80times a year and would useit a lot more if it wereupgraded, while we usethe ball field maybe 15times in March. It wouldget used some other times,especially if there is aminor league team (whichalmost nobody watches).
I love baseball morethan most, so I’m sure Icould get excited for ateam but to give $80 mil-lion to promote a businessthat is worth billions isvery difficult for me toswallow. How is it there isno commitment of anykind from the Red Sox?

Monday is the deadline toregister to vote in the pri-maries.
LETTERS FROM OUR READERS
Gateway to Venice? For whom?Editor:
What Bob Vedder’s column in the Gondolier Sun for-got to mention is that it was the old city council that didnot submit the MEA-developed Airport Master Plan tothe FAA, and wasted $300,000 of federal money. Thisproblem was dumped on the current council because ofthe overzealous and misguided directions by the lastcouncil.
He also mentions the Sunshine Law mess as if it onlyinvolves the new council members. It appears from e-mails made public that John Simmonds (who serves asex officio on the Airport Advisory Board) may have com-mitted the most deliberate violations.
The correction published on page 3A points to thefact that the paper does not know the differencebetween a runway and a taxiway. The picture of weedson the runway was taken of a taxiway; maybe a gallon ofRound-Up would help. Do we not have a maintenanceperson on the airport staff?
This is the second time Mr. Vedder has mentioned theairport as the gateway to Venice. If you are still laughingat this comment send Bob an e-mail ([email protected]) and let him know how you arrived inVenice.
It is about time this paper starts reporting facts andnot slanting every article in support of the good old boynetwork. The last election spoke very clearly that theirdays are over and no longer do a few insiders run Venice.

Liberal wimpsare at it againEditor:
I am sick and tired ofreading every few daysabout the liberal wimpsamong us that keep blam-ing the president for thewar in Iraq.
According to my re-search, House Joint Reso-lution 114 by the 107thCongress of the UnitedStates voted 77-28 to au-thorize the use of the U.S.armed forces to go to war
with Iraq. The presidentdidn’t even get to vote.Hillary, John Kerry andFeinstein votes yes.
They all had the samebriefings as the presidentand they made the deci-sion to go to war, not thepresident. Now the liberalswant to cut and run andleave the undefended peo-ple of Iraq at the mercies oftheir and our enemies.
I wonder how manylives have been lost by theliberals in this great coun-
try encouraging the ene-my in Iraq to hang toughuntil they can gain thepower to pull out andleave all it to them. I usedto think Jane Fonda wasthe ultimate traitor to thiscountry, but no more.
As an old World War IIveteran, I hate to see whatthis great country is com-ing to. God help us.

Conscience spursa Dem voteEditor:
The other day someoneasked me if ChristineJennings was running forCongress again. Honest —I couldn’t believe it.
Here I am, a life-longRepublican and her an-nouncement was greatnews to me. Apparentlylots of people still don’tknow she is running againand that now, with the vot-ing system fixed (thanks inlarge measure to Chris-tine), she’s got a great
chance of winning.More years ago than I
care to count, I first votedfor Tom Dewey againstHarry Truman. I sincevoted for Eisenhower, Nix-on (first time only; I could-n’t stomach Agnew) andFord. Then I fell off theboat.
My problem is that I ama fiscal conservative with asocial conscience. As soonas I realized that the Re-publican strategy was to“starve the beast” (shrinkthe government by takingaway the money), I knewthese guys would drive usinto a hole.
Starting with Truman,every president has leftoffice with the nationaldebt a smaller percentageof our gross national prod-uct than it was when hetook office. That is, everypresident except Reaganand the two Bushes. Wenow owe $7.5 trillion andcounting.
We cannot keep this up.If you thought the mort-gage crisis was bad, waituntil OPEC and Chinadecide to keep their mon-ey in Euros.
We can’t stand fourmore years of the same.We need a fiscal conserva-tive who knows how tohandle money and has asocial conscience. That’sChristine.

Q. My hearing aid started sounding very noisy, so I took it into a hearing aid shop to have it looked at. The man cleaned it and put in a new battery and said it should be fine but it still sounds funny. Now what? started Even though your hearing aids working, it may not be working as it did when it was original manufactured. Many people think that if their hearing aid “whistles” when they hold it in their hand, that everything is working as it should. The only thing the whistle tells you is that your battery is still good, and that there is an electronic current flowing through the instrument. It tells you nothing about the quality of sound the instrument is producing. The only way to insure that your hearing aid is working as it was originally meant to, is to have an electroacoustic test performed on it. This test will check the operation of your hearing aid at many difference frequencies and loudness levels. These measures are then compared to the measures that were taken when the hearing aid was brand new. The measures should be the same. If they differ, the hearing aid should be returned to the manufacturer for repair. If you feel your hearing aid is not performing as it once did, contact the Audiologists at Woodmere Hearing & Balance Centers, Inc. at (941) 492-4327 to schedule a electroacoustic test on your hearing aids. Then you will know for sure if repairs necessary or not.

were sent to me from localfolks. One, from JerryGallagher, is an additivethat you put in your gas toimprove gas mileage. It ispurported to save 15-25percent in gas mileage.You sell the stuff, which isgood for maybe 10 fill-ups,at a mark-up and theagency gets the profit. Ihave this product in theVedder Testing Labs but itis too earlier for a verdict.
The other is a travelWeb site that each non-profit can have on its ownWeb site; 60 percent of allcommissions that comefrom your Web site returnsto the nonprofit. I need toget into this a little further.

VEDDER from Page 6A
The main mission ofthe state Legislature thispast session was to slashthe 2009 budget.
Because of sinking staterevenues, legislators made$6 billion in cuts that randeep and wide, signifi-cantly affecting many ba-sic functions of state gov-ernment, including ourschools. Education fund-ing was cut by $1 billion.
Though budget-cuttingwas uppermost in mostlawmaker’s minds, theyalso passed a slew of bills,some of which will bringmajor reforms to Florida’seducation system.
Here’s a rundown ofsome of the more signifi-cant bills.
• SB 1908 is a huge billthat addresses a variety ofeducation issues. It requir-es the current SunshineState Standards be replac-ed by the “world class”NeXt Generation Stand-ards — known for their de-manding benchmarks andemphasis on civics andsocial studies — by De-cember 2011. The newstandards are meant toraise Florida’s nationalacademic standing and toraise the performance ofhigh school graduates.
The bill also prohibitsschool districts from sus-pending regular instruc-
tion in order to prepare forFCAT, and it sets a laterdate for the FCATs to bea d m i n i s t e r e d .Additionally, it de-empha-sizes the role FCAT plays ingrading high schools.
Currently, a high school’sgrade is determined entire-ly by FCAT. Now, FCAT willcompose half of a school’sgrade and the other halfwill include graduationrates and student perfor-mance in advanced cours-es and on college place-ment tests (e.g., SAT, ACT).Hopefully, this broadergrading system will moreaccurately reflect a school’sperformance.
• Another bill that pass-ed was The Don DavisPhysical Education Act (SB610). Written to furtherimprove the fitness ofFlorida’s students, this billaddresses middle schoolstudents. It requires dis-tricts to provide one classperiod a day of physicaleducation for one semes-ter a year for students insixth through eighth grad-es. The class may be waiv-ed for students in remedialcourses and parents maywaive the requirement un-der certain conditions.Currently, districts are re-quired to provide 30 min-utes a day to elementarystudents.
• SB 1712, The Ethics inEducation Act, was writtenin response to many casesof teacher misconduct.The bill obligates schoolofficials to conduct thor-ough background checksof prospective teachersand administrators. It re-quires districts to aggres-sively investigate chargesof misconduct. It forbids“confidentiality agree-ments” that would coverunethical behavior, and it
also prohibits the statefrom giving retirementbenefits to teachers whocommit certain felony of-fenses against a minor.Also, administrators whoknowingly hide an offensecould lose a year’s salary.
• Another bill, HB 669,created The Jeffrey John-ston Stand Up for AllStudents Act. It prohibitsbullying or harassment,including cyber bullying,of any public K-12 studentor employee. School dis-tricts will be required toreport all instances of bul-lying or harassment and tonotify the parents of thebully and parents of thevictim. The bill also re-quires school districts(together with parents,students, teachers, admin-istrators, and law enforce-ment) to develop policiesto prohibit bullying. Hope-fully, this communicationamong parents, studentsand teachers will help pre-vent bullying.
• HB 653, The Stand Upfor Children ScholarshipProgram, is one of the fewbills that provides for anincrease in funding. Theincrease, however, goes toprivate schools. Thoughlawmakers cut publicschool funding by about$1 billion, they allotted $30million to expand the cor-porate income-tax creditto supply scholarships fortuition to private schools.Businesses are allowed todesignate a portion oftheir taxes to fund the pro-gram. This year, an addi-tional 5,000 students willbe able to take publicmoney to attend privateschools.

A tale of two signsEditor:
Who is Doug Holder?As I was driving down
U.S. 41 today, I saw a sign.It said, “Elect Doug Holder,State Representative.” Ithought back and remem-bered the last time I sawthat name.
It was two years agowhen he was running for
the same House seat. Ihave not heard from norseen anything about DougHolder for two years, so Ifigure I can do withouthim.
I say, let’s vote for some-one who we can remem-ber seeing, hearing anddoing something for ourarea. I am now looking at anew sign and it says, “Elect
Sam Rosenfeld for StateHouse 70.”
I think that is a goodidea.

LET ’EM HAVE IT: SHOULD VENICE CONSIDER SWITCHING TO A STRONG-MAYORFORM OF GOVERNMENT, AND DO AWAY WITH THE CITY MANAGER POSITION?
Worse than butts. I think there should be no plasticfoam lunch carriers in government buildings; no plasticon boats, only glass. It should be illegal to smoke onboats because they throw their butts in the water, too,just like they do on the beach. I think beachgoers shouldbe allowed to smoke with buckets of sand that they canput their butts in. I don’t smoke anymore, but one thingI did enjoy about the beach was having a smoke after aswim. I think that’s a joy that should not be taken away;if people want to harm their health, that’s their business.It seems to me all this junk in the ocean and in our wateris doing a lot more damage than a cigarette butt.
Plastic is worse than any buttthrough a lake to get intoBird Bay Shopping Center.And, will they be fixing theservice road in front ofTaco Bell when it opens asa new store?
EDITOR’S NOTE: The roadhas been fixed, though whoknows how long it will last.
Face off. I was readingan article where it says,“Minister’s family acquiresbeauty parlor.” I thought itwas quite nice and goes onto say that they going toput their daughter to workwhen she obtains her cos-metology license. That wasall fine until I continuedreading, and I will quotethe Gondolier Sun: “Wewill be hiring new, youngerfaces, and our cosmetolo-gists will continue re-searching new products,”she said. I’m very dis-turbed by the fact that aminister’s family empha-sizes hiring new, youngerfaces. What are they goingto do, get rid of the good-time beauticians that theyhave, whom I know per-sonally? They’re not asyoung, but they’re very,very good at their profes-sion. I feel that this is cer-tainly a discrimination ofage, and for a minister’sfamily to come out and saythis sort of thing … I doubtvery seriously it’s their real,true intentions. I think thisis terrible, and an apologyshould be noted, and thesepeople should be in-formed. I think everybodyknows, from the article,which beauty salon theyhave purchased and gofrom there.
Rerun? In the July 6issue in the Around Townsection, there’s a picture ofthe Rev. Andy Simpkinsdedicating the Habitat forHumanity home; I believethis is the third time youprinted this picture andcovered this story. Al-though it’s a wonderfulproject, I don’t understandwhy it keeps being rerunand rerun and rerun. May-be someone can explain.
EDITOR’S NOTE: We cov-ered the story from two per-spectives, once as an OurTown feature, once on theAround Town North page.
Low tech. The city ofVenice and its informationmanagement: It soundslike the city has created amonster when it didn’thave to. As mentioned inthe local news, generallyspeaking, most of the infosent or received via com-puters has to be retainedfor three years minimum.That’s a no-brainer. Ifthere is no way to guaran-tee the info being retainedfor that period of time,then laptop computers orwhatever they’re usingcannot be used for con-ducting city business fromthe homes of the council,staff or anybody else.Again, this is not rocket
science. The city staff has aduty to see to it that theinformation has to be re-tained according to thestate mandate. Don’t buyinto the latest technology.Some states and local gov-ernments saw the poten-tial problem with certaincomputers and did notallow certain technologyto be used, even if it seemsmore efficient. Think ofthe cost from attorney’sfees being accrued by thecity of Venice with this lat-est situation. The headlinereads, “Venice e-mailtraining is lacking.” Well,whose fault is that? Thou-sands of dollars, and whoknows how long this willdrag out? We could spendseveral hundreds of thou-sands of dollars before thisis all over. The city taxpay-ers paid for these councilmembers’ computers, sopersonal business or infor-mation have no businessbeing conducted on thesecomputers.
Triple play. Three shortitems: What ever hap-pened to no shoes, noshirt, no service? If some ofthese men would see theirphysical bodies withouttheir shirt on, they proba-bly would not do that.Also, we still have to drive

Today begins the votingfor ESPN SportsCenter’sTitleTown, USA, competi-tion. The so-called “ex-perts” have narrowed itdown to 20 finalists for youto choose from. Venicewasn’t nominated, butwe’ve got a better shotthan some of the finalists.
Venice High School haseight state titles in the past10 years.
The run began on thevolleyball court. Led byHead Coach Brian Wheat-ley, Venice got their firststate title in school historyin 1998.
Next came the footballteam in 2000. The 10-0Venice Indians romped inthe state tournament open-er, then the Green and Whitewent on an improbable run,winning three games by acombined 11 points. Most ofyou remember the Romp inthe Swamp that followed.
Thousands of Venicefaithful packed the stands atFlorida Field in Gainesvilleto watch the Indians rollDwyer High School 77-14for the program’s first statechampionship.
Wheatley’s 2005 volley-ball squad sandwiched thefootball team with anothertitle before the baseballteam had an improbablerun of their own in 2007.
After a close, 2-1 win overMiddleton High School thatvaulted Venice into theregional finals, the Indianspounded out three morewins by a combined 25-3for the ultimate prize.
In the wrestling pro-gram, names like JeremieCook (2005 state champ at189) and Wade Consul(2008 state champ at 112)come to mind. The swimteam has Mark Cox and his100-yard butterfly cham-pionship in 2006.
On the links, there isCasey Kennedy with herstate title in 2007.
But it’s not just successon the field that makesVenice TitleTown.
The boys basketballteam is the two-timereigning Academic TeamChampion. Venice fansturn out in greater force forroad games than any otherteam in the area.
But the titles go beyondVenice High.
Just this year, MissVenice Fastpitch softballclaimed five tournamentchampionships.
Venice Little League hashad their share of success,including a national title forthe Seniors division in 1990.Teams from the programhave won eight County Cuptitles since 1991. VeniceNational League All-Starteams have won sevenDistrict 16 championshipssince 1996, including a cur-rent run of four straight bythe 9- and 10-year-olds. TheVenice American Leaguehas one district title, to boot.
The Suncoast Orthope-dic 70+ softball team haswon 15 national tourna-ments since 2003. Theyoungsters on the 60+team have amassed a 258-24 record since 1999, win-ning nine consecutive Tri-County Championshiptournaments.
Venice is TitleTown,USA, or surely we have abetter shot at it thanColumbus, [email protected]

Venice is‘TitleTown’
BY TRIPP MILLERSPORTS EDITOR
Dorothy Rahal is wise beyondher years.
Not long after the end of hersophomore year of high school,she has already decided whereshe’s going to college. Rahal, 16,committed to play volleyball atMarshall University on a full ath-letic scholarship beginning in2010. She has even picked a major.
“I think it’s a great fit for herand it’s a good school,” VeniceHead Coach Brian Wheatley said.“It’s a great college town atmos-phere and (Marshall Head Coach)Mitch Jacobs does a great job. He’sa real good coach.”
Rahal is part of an expandingtrend that sees kids even in middleschool committing to play DivisionI basketball. Wheatley said it’s get-ting much more common for vol-leyball players to start committingbefore their junior year. It can be arisk, but a working relationshipbetween Wheatley and Jacobseased some of that uncertainty.
Rahal was able to benefit fromWheatley’s connection to Jacobs,who served as an assistant at theUniversity of South Florida andthe head coach at Florida Instituteof Technology before taking overin Huntington. That relationship,and the similarities between thetwo coaches, is what led her to
commit to Marshall.“Since Wheatley had already
kind of known about the wholeMarshall situation, he was able togive me information on what thevolleyball was like and how thecoaches worked,” Rahal said. “Iloved hearing that from him.When I got to go to their recruitingcamp, it was just kind of reassur-ing knowing that this was the rightplace for me.”
Last season with the Indians,who reached the regional finalsagainst Plant High School, Rahalwas limited for half the season.She spent that time on the benchwith a fractured wrist, but she saysshe wasn’t unable to help herteammates, and she certainlywasn’t unable to improve. Whenshe finally did return, she was ableto contribute almost right away.
“I learned many things that I
didn’t even realize as a player,” shesaid. “Just from sitting on thebench I could see, ‘oh, we need todo this rotation. Oh, we should doperimeter defense instead of rota-tional defense.’ All of the littlethings that you don’t see playing Isaw on the bench. It was great tosee it from that perspective.”
With that knowledge, andthrough experience coachingyounger players at Wheatley’syouth volleyball camps, Rahalsaid she would like to major inphysical education and become avolleyball coach one day.
“I would love to become a P.E.teacher and be able to coach myown team, to start my own volley-ball club in Huntington, or even inany small town, just to create myown name as a coach and a playerin a different state, a differenttown,” she said.
Rahal admitted she would missVenice, but that she’s ready fornew experiences. After all, thingswon’t be all that different inHuntington.
“It’s kind of weird thinking thatI’m trading my coach for almostthe identical coach and tradingthe colors (green white) for thesame colors,” she said. “You leantowards what’s familiar, yet itssuch in a different atmospherethat it’s a new experience. It’sweird, but I’m excited for it.”[email protected]

It only took Renee Slone aboutan hour to build her entire 2009recruiting class.
The Illinois women’s golf coachgave Venice High School seniorCrystal Smith a call July 1 andoffered her a full athletic scholar-ship. That’s all she had to do.Smith is the class of 2009.
“Right now, she’s having sevenfreshmen come in the fall of ’08,”Smith explained. “So I will be heronly one in the fall of ’09.”
July 1 is the first day NCAAcoaches are permitted to contactpotential recruits. Smith wasaware of that fact when shebrought her cell phone onto thegolf course that day, just in case.
Sure enough, the phone rangand it was Slone on the other end.She said she was building a win-ning program, and wanted Smithon her team. It took a little lessthan an hour of discussion, anddespite never having seenChampaign, Ill., Smith couldn’tsay no.
“I was kind of second-guessingmyself, maybe I should have wait-ed,” she said. “But it was one ofmy top schools and I just couldn’tturn down a full scholarship onthe first day they were allowed tocontact me ... I had to say yes,there’s no other answer.”
Smith originally contactedSlone on a whim. Smith’s grandfa-ther graduated from Illinois, soshe sent Slone an e-mail detailingher golfing accomplishments.Slone was impressed, and repliedin less than 30 minutes. Later,Smith received a pamphlet on thenewly opened, 16,000-square-
foot Demirjian Golf PracticeFacility at Illinois. Then she got abirthday card from the coach.
“That really caught my eye andreally got me interested inIllinois,” Smith said.
She didn’t have to be sold onthe campus. As a Florida Gatorsfan, she was already sold on theschool colors. Mostly, though, shewas sold on Renee Slone.
Slone, formerly Renee Heiken,played at Illinois from 1990-93and is the most decorated golferin school history, winning the1993 Big Ten Championship andearning National College Player ofthe Year honors from the NationalGolf Coaches Association andGolfweek Magazine in the sameyear. She is the school’s all-timecareer stroke average leader at75.53. She is now set to begin justher second year as coach.
In 2006, the year before Slonetook over, the Fighting Illini fin-ished 10th in the Big Ten stand-ings. In her first year as coach,Slone took Illinois to sixth in thefinal standings. In the same year,the Fighting Illini shot an 890,crushing the old 54-hole schoolrecord of 901. It’s all in the recruit-ing.
“The coach that retired after 28years really didn’t recruit well,”Smith said. “Coach Slone isrecruiting all over the country soshe’s trying to build a really goodteam.”
Only time will tell how that tal-ent develops, but for now Smith ishappy with her leap of faith. Shewants to pursue a career in sportsbroadcasting, hopefully with theGolf Channel.
“(Slone) told me that theUniversity of Illinois could offerme a bright future in my career,”Smith said. “She offered me a fullscholarship and I said yes, I’ll takeit!”
In a class all her own, Smith commits to Illinois

The framework ofa Venice illustrator
BY JESSICA MILLERINTERN
lthough a picture isworth a thousandwords, his goal is to tellthe story “without any
words at all.”Bill Farnsworth is known for
the extensive research he putsinto each project before evenstarting his first sketch.
For the past 27 years,Farnsworth has created paint-ings for magazines, advertise-ments, children’s books and fineart commissions of portraitsand landscapes.
Farnsworth is a 1980 gradu-ate of the Ringling College of Artand Design and has lived inVenice with his wife, Debbie, formore than 10 years.
Throughout his career as anillustrator, Farnsworth hasdesigned the covers of morethan 80 children’s and youngadults’ books.
“I use the library all the timewhen researching a project,”Farnsworth said. “The SarasotaCounty Library System is a greatresource for information.”
Farnsworth visits schools andlibraries in the Venice area sev-eral times a year to talk withstudents about how an illustra-tor works.
Recently, he spoke to chil-dren at Jacaranda Public Libraryemphasizing Native Americansand his numerous illustrationsin the six-book series of“American Girl.”
“It is my pleasure to be able
to give something back by host-ing these sessions at JacarandaLibrary,” Farnsworth said.
From ideas to artworkFarnsworth’s subject matter
of his work ranges from a canoetrip down the scenic MississippiRiver to extensive NativeAmerican history.
A combination of library,Internet, and his own collectionof books and photos are all ref-erenced in detail beforeFarnsworth begins to sketch hisfirst draft.
“I will even travel to the loca-tion of the story,” Farnsworthsaid.
Farnsworth traveled to Idahoand described the journey as a“National Geographic expedi-tion.”
In his slide show presenta-tion at Jacaranda Public Library,Farnsworth described how heused family members and evenhimself to pose for differentshots.
“I like to take real pho-tographs so I can capture thefeel of what I need to portray inan illustration,” Farnsworthsaid.
Farnsworth had his wife poseas an elderly Native Americanwoman.
“She was a real trooper,”Farnsworth said jokingly.
After he brings his ideas tolife, Farnsworth is back in hishome studio to follow a processof preliminary sketches andcolor studies.
“Using light, color and tex-
ture I try to bring the viewerinto the painting, so they toocan feel the moment in time,”Farnsworth said.
How it all startedDuring the presentation at
Jacaranda Public Library, ayoung boy asked “When didyou want to become an artist?”
“When I was little, very little,I started drawing on the walls ofmy bedroom,” Farnsworth said.
His grandfather then gavehim a real drawing notebookwhere Farnsworth began to
sketch birds and cartoons.Farnsworth’s favorite charac-
ters to draw were Mickey Mouseand Donald Duck.
“I used to sell my sketches tomy classmates for 5 cents eachuntil I got in trouble by theteacher,” Farnsworth said.
Today, one of Farnsworth’smost accomplished illustrationsis the series for “American Girl.”
The six-book series is about ayoung Native American girl,Kaya, who lives in the tradition-al homeland of the Nez Percetribe in 1764.
Farnsworth went throughseveral processes to perfect theillustration of Kaya.
The model that Kaya’s char-acter was based off was flown toVenice for photo shoots on sixdifferent occasions.
Farnsworth was then able tocatch the reality of the characterhe was portraying.
Worth all the hard workThe extensive research and
preparation of Farnsworth’s

Farnsworth’s paintingswere part of The Societyof Illustrators annualshow, and the Oil Paintersof America NationalShow.
In 2002, the Kaya serieswon New York TimesBestseller Award.
An experienced speak-er, Farnsworth gladlytravels to schools andlibraries in the area to talk
about how he illustratesbooks with original art.
Farnsworth takes hisaudience through thestep-by-step process ofresearch, sketches, pho-tographing models andpainting the final piece.
Any age from secondgrade to the college levelwill benefit from Farns-worth’s years of experi-ence as an illustrationinstructor.
At the conclusion ofFarnsworth’s presenta-tion at Jacaranda PublicLibrary, a final question
was asked by the youngaudience.
“Have you ever drawna bad picture?”

Q 1 - Both vulnerable, as South youhold:
♠ A Q 6 ♥♥ A 9 8 ♦♦ 10 8 7 4 2 ♣ 8 3
Partner opens the bidding with oneheart. What do you respond?
A - This hand is tailor-made for thosewho play forcing one-no-trumpresponses to major-suit opening bids.Bid one no trump and, over partner’srebid, jump to three hearts to showinvitational values with only three-card support. If that weapon is not inyour armory, you must choosebetween an underbid of two hearts ora slight stretch to two diamonds. Weprefer the latter.
Q 2 - Both vulnerable, as South youhold:
♠ 9 7 6 3 ♥♥ A J 10 6 3 ♦♦ A 9 5 ♣ 6
The bidding has proceeded:SOUTH WEST NORTH EASTPass Pass 1♠ Pass?What do you bid?
A - You have two choices — a jumpshift to three hearts (by a passedhand, that shows a fit for partner’ssuit and is a game force) or a jumpto four spades. Opt for the lattersince you intend going to gamewhether or not partner likes hearts. Itdoes describe your hand better andcould lead to bigger things.
Q 3 - As South, vulnerable, youhold:
♠ K J 7 6 2 ♥♥ J 10 7 ♦♦ 10 4 ♣ J 8 7
The bidding has proceeded:NORTH EAST SOUTH WEST1♦♦ Pass 1♠ Pass2♥♥ Pass ?What do you bid?
A - These days, partner’s reverse isforcing to two no trump or three ofhis first suit. You have a dead mini-mum, so two no trump comes intoconsideration. However, partner’sreverse might, in part, be based on afit for your suit, so bid two spades toshow you have a five-card suit.
Q 4 - Both vulnerable, as South youhold:
♠ 9 7 6 4 2 ♥♥ 10 4 ♦♦ 7 6 3 ♣ K J 5
Partner opens the bidding with oneno trump. What action do you take?
A - Experience has shown that, witha weak hand and a five-card orlonger suit, it pays to play in yoursuit. So bid two spades or transferinto spades, depending on yourmethods.
Q 5 - Neither vulnerable, as Southyou hold:
♠ K J 9 8 3 ♥♥ A 9 ♦♦ A 7 ♣ K J 7 6
The bidding has proceeded:SOUTH WEST NORTH EAST1♠ Pass 2♣ Pass?What do you bid?
A - You have a very good hand,almost all prime, with excellent sup-port for partner’s suit. Don’t worryabout bypassing three no trump —you are in slam territory. Jump tofour clubs.
Q 6 - East-West vulnerable, as Southyou hold:
♠ A Q J 8 7 ♥♥ A K 9 5 ♦♦ K 10 5 ♣ 8
Your right-hand opponent opens thebidding with one spade. What actiondo you take?
A - From the early days of contractbridge a nugget of wisdom has beenhanded down that covers this situa-tion perfectly: When you are fixed,stay fixed! It is unlikely that yourvulnerable opponent is trying to pulla fast one, so pass and wait to seewhat develops.

Many people with back
pain turn to custom- made orthotics and other,
more generally available forms of shoe insoles in the
hope that they will bring some relief. While it may seem
reasonable to assume that these foot-cushioning devices may take
some of the stress off an aching back, there is evidence that shows
otherwise. In fact, when Israeli researchers recently analyzed six studies that evaluated back pain among people who either did or did not use insoles, they found that the shoe inserts neither prevented nor treated pain significantly. It was concluded that shoe inserts may cushion the feet, but they do not address alignment issues that are an underlying cause of back pain. For that, a chiropractor is needed.

DEAR ABBYCOLUMNIST
Struggling dad finds out how little he knowspaid now.)
I sold my truck andmoved out of my originalapartment, so I don’t havemuch. We have no furni-ture other than the bedswe sleep on and a diningroom table we received asa gift. I have no idea whereto go for help. I have noidea what I am doing as aparent. But I made apromise to that boy, and Ifully intend to make surethat I carry it through.What do I need to know?— NEW FATHER INNORTH CAROLINA
DEAR NEW FATHER:Congratulations on be-coming a father. You havealready mastered the mostimportant lesson on be-coming a parent — andthat’s being there for yourchild. The library is filledwith books on parenting,and I’m sure you will findsome answers there. Butyou are already a stableinfluence, and that’s what
the boy needs. You shouldalso know that there ismoney available to takecare of your boy, and theDepartment of SocialServices should be able tohelp you get it.
DEAR ABBY: Due toyears of abuse at the handsof my parents, I decided Icould no longer continuea relationship with them.Ten years ago, for the sakeof my mental health, I tookcontrol and cut the “dis-ease” out of my life. It wasone of the hardest things Ihave ever had to do, but itwas also one of the bestdecisions I ever made. Iam now a happier, health-ier person and have noregrets.
My problem is peoplewho hear about my deci-sion feel the need to tellme about the “inevitableregret” I will feel, and that Ishould forget the past andmake amends.
My decision was not
made lightly. I gave it con-siderable thought and,while it may not be theright choice for everyone,it was the right one for me.People are entitled to theiropinion, but I am tired offeeling as though I have todefend myself.
Please encourage yourreaders to respect the de-cisions of others, even ifthey don’t always agree. —PEACE AT LAST IN TOR-ONTO
DEAR PEACE AT LAST:Do not feel you have todefend yourself. Thosewho are trying to warn youabout your “inevitable re-gret” are speaking throughthe filter of their own expe-rience. They do not under-stand that some familyrelationships are toxicrather than nurturing, sodon’t argue the issue.Accept that they meanwell and tune them out.You have suffered enough.
DEAR ABBY: I’m start-
DEAR ABBY: I am a sin-gle parent, although I nev-er intended to be. Last fall,I was asked to baby-sit a14-year-old boy. He hasbeen in my custody eversince. His mother aban-doned him. Only in the lastmonth have I actually got-ten legal custody of himfrom Social Services.
The problems he hadprior to being with mehave caused me legal ex-penses I never could haveimagined. (They are all
ing a small business andhave begun to purchaseoffice equipment.
When any recent pur-chase comes up in conver-sation, the next thing outof people’s mouths is,“How much did that cost?”
I think that question isextremely presumptuous.I don’t ask them how muchtheir new car or their newhouse cost them. What’sthe best way to politelyignore the question? —JUST WONDERING INITHACA, N.Y.
DEAR JUST WONDER-ING: If you bring up thesubject of a new purchase,
it is natural for people tobe curious.
The way to avoid aproblem like yours is notto “go there” in the firstplace.
My advice is to stoptalking about the itemsyou’re buying, and yourproblem will resolve itself.
