The Strikers are Cuba-bound. The approval, which arrived just 17 days after the team’s same request was flatly denied by the Treasury, means the team is departing Miami to Cuba on July 14, and the boys are free to stay through July 20. “I have to translate for our team,” midfielder Noah Cutchin, 12, said Wednesday. “I’m excited to go.” Cutchin, a seventh-grader at Horace O’Bryant Middle School, said he isn’t nervous about his first trip to Cuba, which he will make without his par- ents but accompanied by 10 adults who have active roles in the teams — a requirement of the government. “We’re pretty good,” Cutchin said. “You have to work together. Working together is the key.” City seeks public input on cruise ships Complete forecast on Page 2A SPRAY ALERT The Florida Keys Mosquito Control District will conduct aerial spraying over Key West this morning. Helicopters will treat most of Old Town and in New Town up to the Key Plaza/Peacock Plaza area. They will spread an adulticide called Trumpet, applied at 0.75 ounces per acre, whose active ingredient is naled, which the district has used for almost 30 years.

New York became the sixth and largest state to legalize gay marriage June 24. Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed the legislation before midnight that Friday night, setting a 30day clock before the law takes effect on a Sunday.

Alcohol may now flow on Sunday mornings BY MANDY MILES Citizen Staff Key West can break out the bubbly Sunday morning, now that bars, restaurants and retail stores are allowed to sell alcohol before noon. The Key West City Commission on Tuesday gave final approval to Mayor Craig Cates’ proposal to repeal the island’s blue law that prohibited alcohol sales from 4 a.m. to noon on Sundays. Cates was not at the meeting, and had asked that the item be postponed until his return for the Aug. 2 meeting. Commissioner Barry Gibson said he thought the postpone- Also on today’s show: • Mike Puto, Mr. Marathon • Ron Saunders, state representative • Jim Scholl, KW city manager • Cara Higgins, Key West Chamber • Kerry Shelby, water utility LOCAL NEWS US1 Radio 104.1 FM: 7:30 and 8:30 a.m., noon, 5 and 6 p.m. 98.7 FM Conch Country: 7, 8 and 9 a.m. and 3, 4, 5 and 6 p.m. ment was a bad idea, and no one made a motion for the postponement. Commissioners Mark Rossi and Jimmy Weekley recused themselves from the discussion and vote, as both have a personal, financial interest in the sale of alcohol on Sundays. Rossi owns a bar complex and Weekley owns two grocery stores that sell beer and wine. With no support for a postponement, Commissioner Billy Wardlow moved for approval of the repeal. The motion passed unanimously with the four votes present on the dais. The vote was the second required approval, and the change will take effect this weekend, when restaurants will be serving mimosas and bloody marys with brunch, and boaters will be able to stock their coolers for a morning fishing trip without going to Stock Island, where Monroe County’s law are different. Cates, who is out of town, did not return The Citizen’s phone, email or text messages seeking comment. No citizens objected to the ordinance when the commission approved it on first reading June 21. Alcohol sales are now prohibited only between 4 a.m. and 7 a.m. daily. [email protected] ROB O’NEAL/The Citizen Island visitors negotiate puddles on Duval Street Wednesday after an afternoon shower.

CRIME REPORT “Key West City Commissioner Clayton Lopez: Where is your outrage over the mass development at Truman Annex that will ruin Bahama Village? There is a front-page article about people on William Street worried about some hotel rooms. How about moving the 5,000-person amphitheater to that area instead of in our neighborhood? We will have thousands more cars every day. Please help us.” Muggers attack another drunk tourist in Old Town CITIZEN STAFF KEY WEST — Two men tried to mug a drunk tourist in Old Town early Sunday, but were thwarted by other tourists, according to a Key West Police Department incident report. A 41-year-old Port St. Lucie man, who admitted to police he was too drunk to remember anything, was treated at the Lower Keys Medical Center for minor injuries, including a large, swollen bruise on the back of his head. When police found him lying in the street, his nose and mouth were bleeding. Two men in their late teens or early 20s tried to rob the victim at Ann and Caroline streets about 12:25 a.m., a Tampa couple who saw the incident told police. The couple said they initially saw the victim walking on Duval Street, unsteady on his feet. They later saw him “Maybe one day I will wake up and see the headline ‘Ever so frugal, City Hall to stay at Poinciana Plaza.’ Don’t be silly, why be frugal when we can build a new $18 million-plus palace with dozens of variances? Maybe if my commissioner, Teri Johnston, had the nice big office she craves, she would have noticed the plans for the towering school building being built down the street from me before it was built.” “Since the homeowners association never really needed the item to stop oil from coming into their canal, they should return the whole amount. How many other fake claims were paid when there was virtually no impact at all from the spill down here? How about publishing a list of all claims so we can see which of our neighbors are scam artists?” PARADISE TRANSMISSION & AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR 328424 325622 “MASTER CERTIFIED IN ALL REPAIRS!” 305-293-0923 5628 McDonald Ave KW hunched over, leaning against a wall near Ann and Caroline streets, with two men standing on either side of him. As the couple passed the trio, the two men acted like they were going to leave, but the couple soon heard a loud “thud,” like “someone’s head hitting the ground,” reports say. They returned to find the victim lying in the street with the two men standing over him, reaching toward his pockets. The suspects fled when the couple yelled at them to “leave him alone,” reports say. The victim told police nothing appeared to be missing. There have been similar latenight attacks recently.

Elaine Sammy Conrath, 51, of Inverness, Ill., died peacefully at her home with her family at her bedside on Monday, June 27, 2011. Elaine was born on Conrath March 18, 1960, and raised on Sugarloaf Key, Fla., the daughter of Joan (Hochwalt) and the late John L. Sammy. Elaine swam, skied and fished almost daily at the family’s remote oceanfront home where she was raised. She attended Key West High School, then received a degree in industrial engineering from the University of Florida, and later received a master’s degree in business administration. Elaine had worked as an engineer for Motorola for 28 years in South Florida and Northeast Illinois. Elaine enjoyed the outdoors and loved hiking, camping and boating with her husband and kids. Quality family time and many lasting memories were created through family vacations. Her family was very proud, and she took a great deal of personal satisfaction from the determination and commitment required to run her Calling all Democrats Democratic Party leaders, elected officials, grass-roots activists and supporters from across the state will meet in Key West this weekend for the Florida GLBT Democratic Caucus Summer Conference.

Continued from Page 1A Assistant City Manager David Fernandez said Wednesday. “We’re being told by the industry that the ships serving this market are changing, and the smaller ships that currently come here are slated to move to different markets.” Many of the larger vessels cannot turn around in Key West’s Harbor Channel. The widening project would expand part of the channel from its 300-foot width to 450 feet, and would cost an estimated $36 million, Fitton said, adding that a four-year feasibility study costing about $5.5 million must precede the widening. “We’re looking for permission from the City Commission to move forward with seeking federal and state support for the feasibility study,” Fitton said. The cost of the study would be shared among federal, state and local governments, and some city commissioners have said that before they spend money on a study, they want to know whether residents are interested in accommodating the larger ships and continuing the island’s cruise ship arrivals. Environmental group Last Stand opposes the channelwidening project, and will speak against it on Wednesday. The group points to Key West’s location inside a marine sanctuary as one of the reasons for opposition. Its members are concerned about corals and live sponges that live in the area to be dredged, as well as increased traffic congestion. Last Stand President Mark Songer said the city of Key West receives only 25 percent of cruise ship disembarkation fees from the privately owned Pier B, which likely would host many of the larger arrivals. “We understand that tourism is essential to the economy of Key West,” he wrote. “However, not all tourists are equally desirable.” He said some hotel and guesthouse tourists stay away from Duval Street while a cruise ship is in port. Those hotel guests spend 16 times as much money in Key West while on vacation. “When the Key West experience of long-term visitors is negatively impacted by cruise ship visitors, that is the time to look for the reasons why and solutions,” Songer said. Fitton met Wednesday with representatives from the Key West Chamber of Commerce. “It’s been my experience that the Chamber of Commerce generally supports the cruise ship industry and the channel widening,” he said. During a dredging discussion last year, Commissioner Teri Johnston said the chamber was possibly the only group in town that supported the project. Commissioner Mark Rossi has spoken in support of the industry and about its benefits to the city’s budget. The workshop is scheduled for 6 p.m. Wednesday in Old City Hall, 510 Greene St. [email protected] NOW ON TOP WEB STORIES 1 2 3 Southwest inches toward FAA OK This Old Town gang shoots straight Firm facing $12M default PREVIOUS EDITORIALS • Corporate tax cheats cost Florida millions • Learn to stop turning lemonade into lemons • Pushing to close the gap between Keys and Cuba • Mosquito Board should not be held to first choice CITIZEN OF THE DAY TERI LYNN YOUMANS Teri Lynn Youmans, 57, passed away on June 25, 2011, at Florida Hospital in Orlando.

CLARIN/PUBLISHER TOM TUELL/EDITOR RALPH MORROW/SPORTS EDITOR ED BLOCK CHARLIE BRADFORD KEN DOMANSKI SHIRLEY FREEMAN TODD GERMAN Time for U.S. to catch up with mileage standards merica lags behind China, Europe and Japan in demanding better fuel efficiency from its vehicles. In fact, the United States has the most lenient gas mileage and vehicle emissions standards in the modern world — a situation more indicative of the power of the auto industry in Washington than any rational public policy. Now the Obama administration is poised to demand that fuel efficiency for cars and light trucks be doubled by 2025. This big boost would help consumers at the pump while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and America’s dependency on foreign oil. Much of the American auto industry is viable today due to a taxpayer bailout, and now it needs to repay that lifeline by building vehicles that respond to the country’s energy and climate-change challenges. While the details are not yet finalized, the Obama administration wants to raise fuel efficiency standards to an average of 56.2 miles per gallon by 2025 on cars and light trucks. This would finally put the United States into alignment with the rest of the industrialized world. Europe is expected to obtain a fuel efficiency average of 60 miles per gallon by 2020. But not surprisingly, the auto industry and its conservative congressional friends are fighting hard against the change, claiming that it would add too much to the cost of vehicles and force the industry to design cars too small and light for consumer demand. We have seen this playbook before and heard the same lament. Since the 1970s, the auto industry has used its influence in Washington to keep fuel efficiency standards A Editorial low. It took a near-bankruptcy of General Motors and Chrysler and a government rescue before President Barack Obama was able to wrest concessions from the industry to raise fuel economy standards for cars and light trucks to 35.5 miles per gallon by 2016. Now the industry is finally building hybrid and electric cars that consumers desire but pushing back against doing more. The proposed change would have a significant impact. By 2030, it would reduce the country’s annual greenhouse gas emissions by 307 million metric tons of carbon dioxide and cut daily oil consumption by 1.8 million barrels. In the next round of regulations for which the administration is now pressing, those efficiencies would be doubled for model years 2017 through 2025. By combining these news rules with new greenhouse gas rules for medium and heavy-duty trucks, which will be finalized this month, the estimated annual emissions cuts would be a whopping 725 million metric tons or 13 percent of the country’s current net emissions by 2030. Car companies are looking for loopholes in the standards that would allow them to receive credit for things like low-polluting air conditioners. But if this nation is going to get serious about controlling its appetite for foreign oil and addressing its disproportionate contributions to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change, then forcing the industry to make technological leaps in bettering gas mileage is essential. — The St. Petersburg Times GOVERNMENT WEBSITES: Monroe County http://www.monroecounty-fl.gov Monroe County School District http://www.keysschools.com City of Key West http://www.keywestcity.com Monroe County Clerk http://www.clerk-of-the-court.com City of Marathon http://www.ci.marathon.fl.us Monroe County Property Appraiser http://www.mcpafl.org Village of Islamorada http://www.islamorada.fl.us Monroe County Tax Collector http://www.monroetaxcollector. com/index.html City of Key Colony Beach http://www.keycolonybeach.net Monroe Co. Supervisor of Elections http://www.keys-elections.org Monroe County Sheriff’s Office http://www.keysso.net Prosecutor Cyrus Vance did what he had to do BY JOE NOCERA New York Times young immigrant woman, lacking privilege and money, alleges that she was raped while on the job. She reports the incident soon after it takes place. There is semen on her clothes and bruises on her body. She tells her story with such conviction that, according to The New York Times, seasoned investigators cry when they hear it. The man she says raped her — wealthy, famous and powerful — is on an airplane about to depart for his native land. This is the same country that, for decades, helped shield Roman Polanski from being prosecuted for statutory rape in the United States. The man in the current case appears to have left the hotel where the rape allegedly occurred in some haste. He even forgets to take one of his cellphones. With no time to spare, detectives lure him off the plane and arrest him. When he is questioned, he refuses to talk about the incident, having already “lawyered up.” He is forced to do the “perp walk,” and spends the next five days in jail, at which point he is indicted. (Under New York law, if prosecutors don’t indict him within five days, they have to release him on his own recognizance.) Once out on bail, he is placed under house arrest, in a $200,000-a-month New York townhouse. The New York tabloids mock him mercilessly. Now that the man can’t flee, A prosecutors turn their attention to the alleged victim. They begin investigating her background, knowing that the case hinges on her credibility. In just six weeks — an extraordinarily short time, as these things go — they put together a devastating profile of her past, filled with troubling inconsistencies, outright lies and the possibility that she hopes to profit from her alleged ordeal. The prosecutors waste no time divulging these exculpatory facts to the man’s lawyers. Then, in open court, they tell the judge what they’ve found. He releases the man from house arrest. Though the case is not yet abandoned, it almost surely will be. You know what I’ve just described, of course: l’affaire DSK. In the days since Dominique StraussKahn’s stunning reversal of fortune, many Frenchmen have howled at the injustice of it all: “This vision of Dominique Strauss-Kahn humiliated in chains, dragged lower than the gutter,” as the French writer (and DSK friend) Bernard-Henri Levy put it — all because Cyrus Vance, the Manhattan district attorney, chose to believe “a hotel chambermaid” over an esteemed member of the French political establishment. In America, meanwhile, the case’s collapse has brought sniping from former prosecu- tors and white-collar defense attorneys, who have criticized Vance, in particular, for indicting Strauss-Kahn before he knew more about the victim’s background. For the life of me, though, I can’t see what Vance did wrong. Quite the contrary. The woman alleged rape, for crying out loud, which was backed up by physical (and other) evidence. She had no criminal record. Her employer vouched for her. The quick decision to indict made a lot of sense, both for legal and practical reasons. Then, as the victim’s credibility crumbled, Vance didn’t try to pretend that he still had a slam dunk, something far too many prosecutors do. He acknowledged the problems. Levy, himself a member of the French elite, seems particularly incensed that Vance wouldn’t automatically give Strauss-Kahn a pass, given his extraordinary social status. Especially since his accuser had no status at all. But that is exactly why Vance should be applauded: A woman with no power made a credible accusation against a man with enormous power. He acted without fear or favor. To have done otherwise would have been to violate everything we believe in this country about no one being above the law. As for Strauss-Kahn’s humiliation, clearly something very bad happened in that hotel room. Quite possibly a crime was committed. Strauss-Kahn’s sordid sexual history makes it likely that he was the instigator. If the worst he suffers is a perp walk, a few days in Rikers Island and some nasty headlines, one’s heart ought not bleed. Ah, yes, and he had to resign as the chief of an institution where sexual harassment was allegedly rampant, thanks, in part, to a culture he helped perpetuate. Gee, isn’t that awful? The point is this: We live in a country that professes to treat everyone equally under the law. So often we fall short. The poor may go unheard; the rich walk. Yet here is a case that actually lives up to our ideal of who we like to think we are. Even the way the case appears to be ending speaks to our more noble impulses. Vance didn’t dissemble or delay or hide the truth about the victim’s past. He did the right thing, painful though it surely must have been. To judge by his recent writings, Bernard-Henri Levy prefers to live in a country where the elites are rarely held to account, where crimes against women are routinely excused with a wink and a nod and where people without money or status are treated like the nonentities that the French moneyed class believe they are.

The Twitter Zone — How would Serling have incorporated social media BY MAUREEN DOWD New York Times WASHINGTON — knew I should have been out eating charred meat or watching a bad Michael Bay movie. But I couldn’t help myself. Every Fourth-of-July weekend, I get sucked into the spooky little dimension of “The Twilight Zone.” As the annual Syfy marathon proves, Rod Serling’s hypnotic show is as relevant as ever. If Anthony Weiner had watched it, he might have been more aware of how swiftly, and chillingly, our technology can turn on us. Prosecutors and reporters, dumbfounded by dramatic reversals in the cases of tabloid villains DSK and Casey Anthony, might do well to keep in mind Serling’s postmodern mantra: Nothing is what it seems. Agnes Moorehead may seem to be a lonely farm woman under attack by scary little robots, but after she kills them I and takes an ax to their spaceship, it turns out that she’s the scary Amazon alien and the little men were U.S. astronauts from Earth. Ensorcelled once more by that inimitable, smoke-filled Serling voice, which is reassuring and unnerving at once, I wondered how the ingenious TV writer would have used social media and search engines in his plots. Given the way Serling treated time travel, space odysseys, robots and aliens, the 21stcentury technology giants would probably have been ominous in one narrative and benign in another. (Just like in life.) No doubt some characters would have been saved and others destroyed by Twitter, Facebook and Google. “When you look at ‘Twilight Zone’ episodes, everything is ambivalent,” said Serling’s friend Doug Brode, who, along with Serling’s widow, Carol, wrote “Rod Serling and ‘The Twilight Zone:’ The 50th Anniversary Tribute,” published in 2009. “Rod had an open mind to the good, the bad and the in-between of technology. He was a guarded optimist until the Kennedy assassination. After that, his work reflected his sense of hopelessness.” He said that Serling’s father, a middle-class grocer, lost his business in the Depression, so Rod had an early lesson in reversals. Serling also had a devastating experience while serving in World War II. During a lull at the Battle of Leyte Gulf in the Pacific, he was standing with his arm around a good friend and they were having their picture taken. At that moment, an Air Force plane dropped a box of extra ammunition that landed on Serling’s friend and flattened him so fatally that he couldn’t even be seen under the box. “Many ‘Zone’ episodes are about that split-second of fate where somebody arbitrarily gets spared or, absurdly, does not,” Brode said. Serling himself lived a reversal, going from a trailer park after the war and 40 rejection slips in a row to having a big Hollywood house and a pool. But he grew disdainful of Babylon’s corrupting materialism and moved back to a cottage on Cayuga Lake in upstate New York. Serling fought furiously against censorship and ads, asking how you could write meaningful drama when it was interrupted every 15 minutes by “12 dancing rabbits with toilet paper?” In one “Twilight Zone,” an inept screenwriter conjures up Shakespeare to help him. The Bard produces a dazzling screenplay but then storms out when the sponsor demands a lot of revisions. Did Serling, who had a searing sense of social and racial justice, believe in God? “Not Charlton Heston sitting on a cloud with the Ten Commandments, but absolutely, as a force in the universe, he did,” Brode said. “Nearly 35 years ago, George Lucas told me that the whole concept of the Force comes from Rod Serling.” It’s impossible not to watch a stretch of the endlessly inventive Serling and not notice how many of his plots have been ripped off for movies, and how ahead of his time he was. In a popular new Samsung ad, a young woman jumps up from the lunch table and begins screaming because the tarantula screensaver on her colleague’s 4G phone is so lifelike; another guy at the table takes off his shoe and smashes it. There’s a “Twilight Zone” episode where a Western gunfighter time-travels forward and goes into a bar, where he sees a TV with a cowboy coming toward him. Thinking it’s real, he pulls out his pistol and shoots the screen. Looking at this summer’s lame crop of movies and previews you can appreciate Serling’s upbraiding of the entertainment industry for “our mediocrity, our imitativeness, our commercialism and, all too frequently, our deadening and deadly lack of creativity and courage.” “The Twilight Zone” was never gangbusters in the ratings, and Serling — who smoked on-screen — died at 50 from the ravages of six packs a day. He felt like a sellout and failure. He had sold syndication rights for his show to CBS for a few million, thinking he had not written anything of lasting value. Sadly, he gave himself a trick ending. He died never realizing how influential he would be. “Everything today is Rod Serling,” said Brode. “Everything.” Maureen Dowd is a syndicated columnist with The New York Times.

So the tournament games, which are technically exhibition matches, will be held July 15-18, with the Strikers taking on four of the top youth soccer clubs in Havana. The Strikers, a team of boys ages 11 to 13 who have been honing their soccer skills for two years, first applied for the special license required to travel as a team to Cuba on April 17, and didn’t hear back until June 9, when the government denied the request. At issue on the team’s first application for Cuba travel, according to the government’s Cuba Travel Program Manager Wisteria Continued from Page 1A ing units. F.E.B. last year began the process of requesting the island be assigned a new category, or designation, on the county’s future land use map (FLUM), but it abandoned the application after the proposal generated community opposition. The Key West City Commission also voted to not support the project, largely due to the impact on city infrastructure such as parking, utilities and public safety services. In a June 29 letter to county Growth Management Director Christine Hurley, F.E.B. attor- Jeffrey Braunger in Washington, D.C., was that the Strikers appeared to have “excessive time” on their hands while in Havana. The Strikers weren’t able to appeal the decision, but had to reapply. Local representatives weren’t interested in promoting the pre-teens’ Cuban trip, said Nancy Coward, who handles press for the Strikers while her husband, Tom, coaches the boys. So the soccer moms and dads submitted a new license application and on June 14 went to the highest level of American soccer parenting: First Lady Michelle Obama. “She’s a soccer mom,” said Nancy Coward. “Her girls play soccer; she has a lot of soccerrelated connections.” That appeal, shipped via overnight mail to the White House, hasn’t yet been answered, though. Instead, on July 1, Ariadna Vallejo, from the licensing division of the Office of Foreign Assets Control, emailed the Strikers, saying that license was in the mail. “We appreciate your patience in the processing of this application,” Vallejo wrote. “Please feel free to plan your trip Key West U13 Strikers are: Noah Cutchin, Zander Burns, Jacob Elomina, Eric Whiteside, Alistair Fergus, Brian Coward, Dario Sagastume, Patrick Matysik, Gabe DiDato, Dylan Spencer, Kody Tomita, Danny Kearny and Coach Tom Coward. Missing are: Jack Behmke, Connor Chaney, Kevin Coward and Spencer Hamilton. accordingly.” The Strikers’ families are footing the bill, planning to hold fundraisers once they return from Cuba. “We didn’t feel it was appropriate to do fundraising until we had the license,” said Nancy Coward. “But we are hoping to make this an annual trip.” The Office of Foreign Assets Control oversees economic and trade sanctions based on U.S. foreign policy and national security goals. The Strikers applied after learning that amateur sports teams may obtain a license to compete against similar teams in Cuba under the Treasury’s guidelines for travel to the Communist nation, which sits just 90 miles from Key West. The soccer organization didn’t seek out the Cuban tournament; they were invited by a random soccer fan and Cuban native who is friends with a Striker player’s family. The Cuban, who the Cowards say wants to remain anonymous, approached the coach at Bernstein Park earlier this year. In March, the Cuban soccer aficionado hand-delivered an official invitation to the Cuban Junior Olympics. The Strikers, which had been told the license turnaround typically takes 30 days to 45 days, and the rest of the soccer team were left in the lurch with the 60-day wait that came just days before the tournament was to begin. But in the second application to the same department, the Strikers learned on Friday that they were welcome to board a plane from Miami to Havana. The Strikers will add to their red-and-white uniforms some navy blue “USA” jerseys. “Red, white and blue,” said Nancy Coward, who with her husband runs the Andrews Inn bed and breakfast at Zero Whalton Lane. “What a thrill, to represent their country.” Even in baseball-obsessed Key West, the Strikers have drawn a devoted following of fans. “They’re like brothers,” said Nancy Coward, whose two sons, Brian, 11, and Kevin, 13, play for their dad. “People know them in town. They’re not just good athletes, they’re really nice boys and a tight-knit group.” Danny Kearney, 12, a right midfielder for the Strikers, grew up in a family of soccer players in his native England. “My whole life,” Kearney said, when asked how long he has known the sport. “My dad likes soccer so I started playing it.” Kearney pronounced the Cuba trip as “pretty cool,” saying that, like Cutchin, he wasn’t nervous at all and that his nonsoccer playing friends also approve. “They think it’s pretty cool,” Kearney said. [email protected] ney Ed Scales stated that “none of the county’s existing FLUM or zoning categories are appropriate for Wisteria Island because of the island’s unique character.” “Wisteria Island is in a favorable situation, in that virtually any development on the island utilizes infrastructure services to be provided by the city of Key West, notably tertiary sewage treatment from city facility that has 5 million gallons of unused treatment capacity,” Scales wrote. Scales has not filed a formal request for a new FLUM designation, which requires a $4,500 filing fee, but F.E.B. “will be submitting an application,” he wrote. “We realize that this will be a very time consuming process. Fortunately, there are no time constraints, artificial or otherwise, and there is certainly no urgency or need to ‘rush’ this process,” he wrote. Scales said the process would include input from the city of Key West. Key West community activist Christine Russell, who has been following the project, takes exception with Scales’ claim that the developers can use city infrastructure. “Mr. Scales is very mistaken,” Russell told The Citizen. “Where have these people been? Have they not been paying attention? Do they think saying something makes it a fact? They must think the public is not paying attention — wrong.” Russell cites a City Commission meeting in June, when Commissioner Mark Rossi and City Attorney Shawn Smith said the city is not obligated to provide such services. After F.E.B. pulled its request last year, the County Commission directed its land use planners to assign the island a FLUM designation. Staff had proposed a designation called “residential conservation,” which would cap development at five homes or transient rental units. F.E.B. wants a “mixed use commercial” designation that would allow its resort develop- ment plan. The issue last went before the county’s Planning Commission in May. The commission requested county planning and legal staff research several land use designations and bring back options that could apply to Wisteria Island. So far, the Planning Commission has declined F.E.B.’s request to create a new FLUM designation. Hurley and Scales discussed creating a new FLUM designation last week, after Scales sent his letter. She told The Citizen on Wednesday that she did not plan to bring it to the County Commission, and her staff is continuing to work on the Planning Commission’s direc- tion of researching applicable designations. The Planning Commission is scheduled to meet July 27 to vote on a FLUM designation for the island. Hurley said she told Scales that if F.E.B. wants to create a new designation and other zoning rules, he could approach the County Commission during its “sounding board” session at its July 20 meeting. However, Tuesday was the deadline to reserve time at the podium or place an item on that agenda, and Scales did not submit a request. Commissioners can request additions to the agenda only as an emergency add-on item.

SAN FRANCISCO Special prosecutor sought Shooting suspect faces death penalty Court: Halt gay military ban A lawyer for the hotel maid who has accused Dominique StraussKahn of trying to rape her in New York is asking for a special prosecutor to pursue the case. Kenneth Thompson asked Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. in a letter Wednesday to recuse his office from the case and appoint a special prosecutor. A Vance spokeswoman says the request is meritless, and prosecutors strongly disagree with how their work has been characterized. Thompson says he believes the DA’s office is behind media reports attributed to anonymous sources that the 32-year-old woman referred to. The Army psychiatrist charged in the worst mass shooting on a U.S. military installation will be tried in a military court and face the death penalty if convicted, Fort Hood’s commanding general announced Wednesday. Maj. Nidal Hasan is charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder in the November 2009 shooting spree on the Texas Army post. A military judge has not been named in the case, and it was not immediately clear when Hasan will be arraigned in a Fort Hood courtroom. He must plead not guilty because it is a death-penalty case, according to military law. Lt. Gen. Donald Campbell’s decision for Hasan to face a military trial and the death penalty came as no surprise and echoed the recommendations of two Army colonels who also reviewed the case. A federal appeals court ordered the U.S. government on Wednesday to immediately cease enforcing the ban on openly gay members of the military, a move that could speed the end of the 17-year-old rule. Congress repealed the policy in December and the Pentagon is already preparing to welcome gay military personnel, said the ruling from a threejudge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco. There’s no longer any purpose for a stay the appeals court had placed on a lower court ruling that overturned “don’t ask, don’t tell,” the judges said. The court order blocks the military from discharging anyone based on sexual orientation, a Pentagon spokesman said.

NYC offices open on a Sunday for gay marriages BY CHRIS HAWLEY The Associated Press NEW YORK — Saying gay couples should not be made to wait one day longer to wed, New York City officials announced they would open clerks’ offices on Sunday, July 24, to perform the first gay marriages under a new state law. New York became the sixth and largest state to legalize gay marriage June 24. Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed the legislation before midnight that Friday night, setting a 30-day clock before the law takes effect on a Sunday, when government offices normally are closed. “This is a historic moment for New York, a moment many couples have waited years and even decades to see,” Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Wednesday, “and we are not going to make them wait one day longer than they have to.” Clerks’ offices in all five boroughs will be open for a full day. Volunteer judges will be available to perform ceremonies and review requests to waive the state’s mandatory 24-hour waiting period between when a couple gets a marriage license and when they can get married. During the next week, the offices will also stay open until 6:30 p.m., two hours later than usual. It was not clear Wednesday how many of the hundreds of smaller cities and towns around the state would follow New York City’s lead and open clerks’ offices that Sunday. The upstate city of Binghamton plans to open its clerk’s office Sunday to accommodate couples who want to wed. Syracuse City Clerk John Copanas told the Syracuse Post-Standard that his office decided to open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. July 24, because it received so many calls from couples inquiring when they could get the $40 licenses. He said the city also wants to avoid being inundated with people the following Monday. Officials in other cities said they would consider opening that Sunday, but wanted to get information from the state first. “We’re kind of reserving judgment until we hear from New York state,” said Ithaca City Clerk Julie Conley Holcomb. The hundreds of local clerks who administer marriage licenses are awaiting new forms and guidance from state health officials on how to proceed with the new law. Cuomo spokesman Josh Vlasto said forms and guidance will start coming in the next few days. “The administration will be reaching out to municipalities and jurisdictions across the state to assist with handling these procedures in the days and weeks ahead,” Vlasto said.

CNN asked Spitzer about staying with the network as a commentator, said Ken Jautz, executive vice president of CNN/US. But Spitzer’s spokeswoman, Lisa Linden, said the former governor is done with CNN. “We engaged serious people in conversations about national and global issues in a way that was informative and challenging,” Spitzer said. “I believe that we provided diverse and valuable perspectives during the show’s tenure.

The hearing will be held at 5:30 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter can be heard, on July 28, 2011 at Founders Park Community Center, 87000 Overseas Highway, Islamorada, Florida for the purpose of receiving public comment on the proposed Assessment Area and assessments. In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, if you are a person with a disability who needs any accommodation in order to participate in this proceeding, you are entitled, at no cost to you, to the provision of certain assistance. Please contact the Village Clerk at (305) 664-6412, at least seven days prior to the public hearing. All affected property owners have a right to appear at the hearing and to file written objections with the Village within 20 days of this notice. If a person wishes to appeal any decision made by the Village Council with respect to any matter considered at the hearing, such person will need a record of the proceedings and may need to ensure that a verbatim record is made, including the testimony and evidence upon which the appeal is to be made. The Assessments have been proposed to fund construction of wastewater collection and treatment facilities. The assessment for each parcel of property will be based on the number of equivalent dwelling units attributable to such parcel. Unless prepaid, the annual assessment will include your share of the principal, interest and collection cost. The maximum annual assessment is estimated to be $256 per EDU for properties with 1-10 EDUs and $2,560 plus $74 per EDU for properties greater than 10 EDUs. Property owners within the North Plantation Key, Woods Corner, and the North Plantation Key Supplemental Assessment Areas are not included in this Wastewater Assessment Area. A more specific description of the methodology and the calculation of assessment rates is set forth in the Initial Assessment Resolution adopted by the Village Council on June 23, 2011. Copies of the Initial Assessment Resolution, the plans and specifications for the wastewater collection and treatment facilities, and the preliminary Assessment Roll are available for inspection at the offices of the Village Manager, located in the Village Hall, Administrative Center and Public Safety Headquarters, 86800 Overseas Highway, Islamorada, Florida. The assessments will be collected on the ad valorem tax bill, as authorized by Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes. Failure to pay the assessments will cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property which may result in a loss of title. The Village Council intends to collect the assessments in not to exceed twenty-five (25) annual assessments, the first of which will be included on the ad valorem tax bill to be mailed in November 2011. Future annual assessments may be prepaid at the option of the property owner; provided, however, that due to the expected prepayment period extending beyond the deadline for certification of the Assessment Roll for the Fiscal Year beginning on October 1, 2011, the annual Assessment amount computed for each Real Estate Parcel in accordance with the Initial Assessment Resolution will be billed on the Tax Bill and payable pursuant to the Uniform Assessment Collection Act.

BOGOTA, COLUMBIA WASHINGTON Transport minister in scandal Rains force 3,200 to evacuate Powell joins US delegation Brazil’s Transportation Minister has resigned amid a scandal over an alleged kickback scheme in his office. Alfredo Nascimento’s ministry has been under pressure the past week since news reports tied four officials to the purported kickback and overbilling scheme. The four officials were fired. TheTransportation Ministry is responsible for several infrastructure projects valued at a total of $313 billion. Nascimento’s resignation Wednesday is the second by a member of President Dilma Rousseff’s Cabinet in a month. Rousseff chief of staff Antonio Palocci stepped down June 7 amid questions over how his personal wealth rose sharply while he served as a congressman in 2010. Officials say heavy rains over the last few days have forced the evacuation of roughly 3,200 people and isolated 13 rural communities in the Dominican Republic. Emergency officials said Wednesday that the seasonal downpours triggered a mudslide that destroyed two homes outside of the capital of Santo Domingo and are blamed for the death of an adolescent. Roughly 1,900 homes in low-lying areas have been flooded in parts of the central and southern Dominican Republic. The intensity of the rains decreased Wednesday, but Dominican meteorologist Bolivar Ledesmais is warning inhabitants to brace for more flooding since rainfall is expected to continue until Thursday.

Magnitude-7.6 earthquake shakes Kermadec Islands Raised overseas, South Sudanese come back to new nation BY MAGGIE FICK The Associated Press JUBA, Sudan — Lual D’Awol cultivated a passion for rap and basketball while living in Baltimore. Today he is in Southern Sudan, which becomes the world’s newest nation this weekend. Southern Sudanese are returning to what will soon be the world’s newest country capital — Juba — to a home many never knew. Some are finding the adjustment a challenge. Others, like D’Awol, are excited to be back. “I chose to come early so I could be involved in the whole referendum process and to see the birth of our nation,” said D’Awol. “I’m going to stay here. I’m not going to go back (to the U.S.) because I don’t really have anything else that I need to do over there.” Through the decades of civil war fought by north and south Sudan, thousands of “Lost Boys of Sudan” spent years drift- ing throughout their country while fleeing bloodshed and famine before landing in the U.S., Europe and other African countries. D’Awol, 26, was one of the lucky ones. He was born to diplomat parents who were abroad for much of the war. Born in New York City, he’s now back in Juba doing work as an auditor for a project funded by the U.S. government’s aid arm. A rapper in his spare time, his latest song is titled “Scattered Overseas.” His message to his fellow citizens: “I think they should come back.” More than 4 million southerners left their homes, many on foot, as two decades of conflict raged between Sudan’s north and south.

Southern Sudan’s infrastructure is elementary at best. The security situation, always tense, is worsening, particularly in north-south border areas. Nepotism and corruption are common. But the desire to return home can override the challenges. “I always wanted to come back and I always knew that I had to,” said Mading Ngor. “After losing my relatives in the war I felt a sort of moral obligation to contribute to the country. I came also see whether there was a place for me in this new republic.” Ngor, 28, grew up in Alberta, Canada, where he studied journalism at Grant MacEwan University. He is viewed as an outsider here — by the motorcycle taxi drivers and from relatives in the rural village where he was born. He is looking to balance both his Sudanese and Canadian heritage. “I came as a journalist because independence is the story of the century and I wanted to be part of that,” he said. “And to assess whether it’s really home or not.” Southern Sudan voted in a January referendum to break away from the north, something that happens on Saturday. Excitement is growing in Juba as a day of celebration sought for decades becomes reality. US, Mexico sign cross-border trucking agreement BY JONATHAN M. KATZ The Associated Press MEXICO CITY — U.S. and Mexican officials signed an agreement Wednesday allowing each country’s trucks to traverse the other’s highways, implementing a key provision of the North American Free Trade Agreement after nearly two decades of bickering. Transportation secretaries Ray LaHood and Dionisio Perez-Jacome signed the three-year memorandum, which is based on an agreement announced in March by Presidents Barack Obama and Felipe Calderon. NAFTA, signed in 1994, had called for Mexican trucks to have unrestricted access to highways in border states by 1995 and full access to all U.S. highways by January 2000. Canadian trucks have no limits on where they can go. But until now, Mexican trucks have sel- dom been allowed farther than a buffer zone on the U.S. side of the border. In retaliation, Mexico had imposed higher tariffs on dozens of U.S. products. The Mexican government has now agreed to suspend those tariffs as long as the agreement is in place. The public debate surrounding the accord had mostly focused on the safety of Mexican trucks. But labor unions and other groups were strongly opposed to the agreement, which they say will cost Americans trucking and other jobs. The U.S. Department of Transportation says the safety concerns have now been resolved. Electronic monitoring systems will track how many hours the trucks are in service. Drivers will also have to pass safety reviews, drug tests and assessments of their English-language and U.S. traffic sign-reading skills. Mexico has the authority to demand similar measures from U.S. truck drivers entering their territory. But those won’t do much to resolve the U.S. debate over the migration of jobs, which dates back to the NAFTA debates of the early 1990s. The question: Will a freer flow of cross-border cargo traffic boost business and allow owners to hire more workers, or will it ship U.S. jobs to Mexican drivers who work for lower pay? LaHood argued the first position in a Wednesday statement. “By opening the door to long-haul trucking between the United States and Mexico, America’s third largest trading partner, we will create jobs and opportunity for our people and support economic development in both nations,” he said. The Teamsters Union was incensed. General President Jim Hoffa said the agreement was “probably illegal” because it goes further than a previously agreed-on pilot program and described it as “opening the border to dangerous trucks at a time of high unemployment and rampant drug violence.” Libyan rebels seize 2 mountain towns, suffer losses elsewhere BY ADAM SCHRECK AND BEN HUBBARD The Associated Press TRIPOLI, Libya — Rebel fighters in western Libya seized two mountain towns from government troops Wednesday as their counterparts east of the capital Tripoli suffered heavy losses in intense fighting with government troops. Meanwhile, the embattled regime of Moammar Gadhafi sought to show it remains in control of the country, laying out plans to try rebel leaders for treason in court next week. In the eastern rebel stronghold of Benghazi, tens of thousands of rebel supporters poured into the city’s main square for a rally aimed at sustaining momentum for their nearly five month-old uprising. Fighting began in February when a popular movement against Gadhafi quickly escalated into armed conflict. The civil war has been largely deadlocked, with the rebels controlling the east and Gadhafi clinging to large parts of western Libya, but unable to retake rebel bridgeheads there. The rebels made some gains Wednesday, taking two more towns in the western Nafusa mountains and pushing further from the port city of Misrata, their main stronghold in the west, toward the town of Zlitan, 12 kilometers to the west. Gadhafi’s forces fired more than 500 rockets at rebel positions near Zlitan, from dawn until after nightfall, said Dr. Ayman Abu Shahma, a physician in Misrata. He said 18 rebel fighters were killed and 30 wounded Wednesday. He said two civilians, including a 12year-old girl, also were killed when a rocket hit their Misrata house. NATO, meanwhile, said it struck equipment used to refuel government military vehicles near the key eastern oil town of Brega, which has been a fre- WELLINGTON, New Zealand — The eight scientists and staff based at the remote Kermadec Islands in the Pacific Ocean are unharmed after a powerful magnitude-7.6 earthquake struck this morning. Agencies in the South Pacific this morning also canceled earlier tsunami warnings, saying the danger has now passed. Department of Conservation spokesman Nick Hirst said that the four scientists and four volunteers on Raoul Island were shaken but unharmed, and their facilities undamaged. Hirst said a big part of the agency’s job on the islands are to eradicate weeds and animal pests to preserve native species. The volcanic Kermadec Island peaks are a remote out- post that are generally uninhabited aside from a weather station and a hostel for visiting New Zealand scientists and staff. The U.S. Geological Survey reported that the quake struck at 7:03 a.m. Thursday, was 29.8 miles deep, and measured magnitude-7.6. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, a U.S. agency, at first issued a warning for possible tsunami damage in the Kermadecs, Tonga and New Zealand but later canceled the warning. It said a tsunami measured at 2.2 feet was measured at Raoul Island. The Kermadecs are about 570 miles south of Tonga, the nearest major island, and are 736 miles northeast of Auckland, New Zealand. New Zealand’s Civil Defense office also canceled an earlier tsunami warning. Haiti president’s 2nd choice for Prime Minister announced BY TRENTON DANIEL The Associated Press PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Haitian President Michel Martelly has chosen a former justice minister as his nominee for prime minister in his second attempt to fill the position, a government official said Wednesday. Bernard Gousse was chosen in the hopes that his experience and reputation as a prominent attorney will overcome opposition from lawmakers who rejected the president’s first candidate for the post, businessman DanielGerard Rouzier, said Martelly’s chief of staff, Thierry MayardPaul. “He’s an honest man. He has experience in public administration,” Mayard-Paul told The Associated Press. “We believe that Mr. Gousse can drive this country out of its turmoil.” The nominee still may face a challenge winning approval from a Senate and Chamber of Deputies dominated by the opposition Unity party of former President Rene Preval. Gousse served as justice minister under the interim government that was formed after the ouster of former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 2004. Critics accused him of persecuting supporters of Aristide, who returned to Haiti in March and remains a popular figure in the impoverished country. Unity party Deputy Patrick Joseph said Gousse would be rejected. “The choice is a bad choice,” he said. “He won’t be ratified.” In Martelly’s first major political setback, lawmakers last month overwhelmingly rejected Rouzier.

Abby Wambach got the Americans back in the game in the 67th minute with her first goal of the tournament. But just as they have all year, the Americans squandered many other chances to score. It’s the fourth loss since November for the world’s No. 1 team after going more than two years without a defeat, and their second to Sweden this year. “We think the road to the World Cup’s top podium is going to be difficult,” Wambach said. “That’s kind of been our journey so far, so why change things now?” It’s only Sweden’s fifth victory against the U.S. in 30 games, and first in four World Cup meetings.

Sports imposter Bremen dies DETROIT — Barry Bremen, a Detroit-area businessman whose fun-loving, gate-crashing stunts led him to shoot layups before NBA AllStar games, accept an Emmy Award for best supporting actress and flee from veteran baseball manager Tommy LaSorda, died of cancer at age 64. Sometimes called the “Great Impostor,” Bremen became known to millions during the 1980s for sneaking onto professional courts and fields donning chicken suits as well as player and umpire uniforms. IN COURT MLB: MARLINS 7, PHILLIES 6 Clemens trial selecting jury Stanton hits walkoff HR in 10th THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON (AP) — Roger Clemens’ perjury trial opened Wednesday with both sides raising the prospect of calling a roster of former baseball stars as witnesses and the judge angrily criticizing Congress for withholding an audiotape of Clemens’ deposition at the heart of the case. Clemens is accused of lying under oath to the House Government Reform Committee in 2008 when he denied ever using performanceenhancing drugs during his record-setting career as a major league pitcher. The trial began with an intensive jury selection process expected to last into next week. Jurors were asked about their feelings about the case. BY STEVEN WINE The Associated Press MIAMI — Mike Stanton hit a one-out solo homer in the 10th inning Wednesday night, and the Florida Marlins overcame an early four-run deficit to avert a series sweep by beating the Philadelphia Phillies, 7-6. Stanton hit a 2-1 pitch from Danys Baez (24) into the seats in left. The young slugger had been hitless in his previous four at-bats, striking out twice and grounding into a bases-loaded double play. Stanton, who has been dealing with blurry vision in his right eye because of an infection, saw a doctor before the game and was told the problem should clear up with the help of drops. The home run was his 17th this season, and the first walkoff homer of his career. Philadelphia’s John Mayberry Jr. hit two home runs in the No. 8 spot in the order, and Jimmy Rollins also homered for the Phillies. The Marlins rallied from a 4-0 deficit and won for only the second time in their past 17 games decided by one run. They ended a streak of seven consecutive losses to the Phillies, who lost for only the fifth time in 26 games at Miami since September 2008. A baserunning mistake by Domonic Brown cost Philadelphia a run in the sixth. He tripled to lead off the inning, but the Marlins appealed and he was ruled out for failing to touch second base. Mayberry followed with a homer off Mike Dunn. The Phillies stranded two runners in the ninth, and Ryan Howard hit a 400-foot flyout to center in the 10th. But the Marlins’ bullpen held Philadelphia without a hit over the final 42⁄3 innings. Edward Mujica (6-2) pitched a perfect 10th. Florida’s Logan Morrison hit a two-run homer, his 12th, while Hanley Ramirez had three hits.

Hutch has done it with schooners and sloops BY J.W. COOKE One of a series on Keys fishing guides and captains Citizen Staff Writer KEY WEST apt. David “Hutch” Hutchinson first arrived in Key West a dozen years ago, knowing he wanted to sail, but without knowledge or experience in guiding boats by wind. However, after only a few years, the Kentucky native, who had previously spent time in the Air Force, mastered his craft and has been able to span the globe, captaining schooners and sloops from port to port. “I’ve never been a fishing charter captain and the fishing we do is trolling a line off the back of the boat,” said Hutchinson. “My favorite part of sailing fishing is you never know what you are going to get in the deep blue sea. When you’re sailing, it’s quiet and you’re going the perfect speed so we’ve got all different type of fish hooked. Whenever you hook up, you put the boat into the wind and start powering it in.” It was in 1998 when Hutchinson, who owned a bar at the time and had previously visited Key West, decided to make a permanent move south. Upon his arrival, he took to the water aboard his friends’ J-33 racer called Moondog, until he purchased his first sailboat, a 50-foot, threebed, three-bathroom vessel that was ported behind Christmas Tree Island. “I began to charter trips then,” said Hutchinson, who earned his first captain’s licenses a decade ago. “I even began to live on the boat, because it was a lot cheaper than my apartment and I built up the hours on the water.” One of those clients he took out eventually C KEYSWIDE CLASSIFIEDS ◆ keysnews.com/classifieds J.W. COOKE/The Citizen Capt. David ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson stands aboard one of the Dolphins Safari Charters he help run out of Banana Bay Harbor. wanted a boat of his own and hired Hutchinson on as captain. From there his journeys outside of the Key West coastal waters began, first with trips through the Bahamas then as far south as the Turks and Caicos. That job eventually translated into another job on a larger vessel in Tortola. “I would fly between Key West and Tortola,” said Hutchinson. “We would sail back and forth between Bermuda, St. Martin and Grenada.” The trips would last on average three weeks at a time, but then he received an offer to deliver a new Hyland to New England. “The owner was from Fort Lauderdale and about half way up the coast he realized it was too big of a boat for him to drive and asked me to be permanent captain,” said Hutchinson. Initially, Hutchinson said, he turned down the offer because he didn’t want to spend any more time away from his now 7-year-old daughter, Grace. “When I first moved here I had no family,” said Hutchinson. “But with having my daughter, I wanted to spend as much time as possible in Key West.” However, the offer turned out to be too good, with Hutchinson being able to fly home for free every three weeks. So, he journeyed north. The first few trips were based from the Martha Vineyard’s area, but eventually they traveled back south before the boat was shipped to the Mediterranean Sea. During that time, Hutchinson’s experiences were not just tied to the water. There were also trips inland to take in the cultures of France, Spain and Italy. They were even daring enough one time to “run with the bulls.” When it was time to move from the Mediterranean Sea, the boat and crew were headed to the South Pacific, but that was too far way from Key West for Hutchinson. “It was about Christmas time when it was decided the boat was going to be shipped See HUTCH, page 3B FOR CLASSIFIEDS ◆ 305-292-7777, Option 4 2B THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ THURSDAY, JULY 7, 2011 SPORTS: Scoreboard Pittsburgh Cincinnati Chicago Houston West Division SPREADS GLANTZ-CULVER Major League Baseball National League FAVORITE LINE at Atlanta -185 at Washington -120 at Florida -135 at Milwaukee -115 at St. Louis -125 at Los Angeles -145 at San Francisco -135 American League at New York -165 Toronto -110 at Boston -155 at Texas -145 Detroit -120 at Chicago -165 at Los Angeles -190 UNDERDOG Colorado Chicago Houston Cincinnati Arizona New York San Diego LINE +175 +110 +125 +105 +115 +135 +125 Tampa Bay at Cleveland Baltimore Oakland at Kansas City Minnesota Seattle +155 +100 +145 +135 +110 +155 +180 MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL AMERICAN LEAGUE East Division New York Boston Tampa Bay Toronto Baltimore Central Division Cleveland Detroit Chicago Minnesota Kansas City West Division Texas Los Angeles Seattle Oakland W 51 51 48 42 36 L 34 35 39 46 47 Pct GB .600 — 1 2⁄ .593 .552 4 1 .477 10 2⁄ .434 14 W 46 46 43 38 36 L 39 42 45 47 51 Pct .541 .523 .489 .447 .414 GB — 1 1 2⁄ 412⁄ 8 11 W 46 46 43 39 L 41 42 44 49 Pct .529 .523 .494 .443 GB — 1 2⁄ 3 1 7 2⁄ Tuesday’s Games N.Y.

The 21-year-old Czech said Wednesday that she “can not play due to the muscle injury I picked up at Wimbledon ... I played with painkillers at Wimbledon. I still need rest for a couple of more days.” Defending champion Julia Goerges of Germany will replace the seventh-ranked Kvitova. INDIANAPOLIS — Frank Vogel played the waiting game to become head coach with the same confidence that made him a favorite of both fans and players during his half a season carrying the interim tag. “They never told me I wasn’t going to be the coach, so I just tried to carry myself like I was,” the 38-year-old said Wednesday after the Pacers officially made him the coach. Vogel took over for Jim O’Brien who was fired. INDIANAPOLIS — Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. can hardly believe that a year from now, he could be preparing to drive at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The 23-year-old NASCAR Nationwide driver will get a chance to race on it after NASCAR, GRAND-AM and the Speedway announced a “Super Weekend.” Nationwide and GrandAm Road Racing will hold events the same weekend as the Brickyard 400 next year.

BY STEPHEN WILSON The Associated Press DURBAN, South Africa — The victory margin was massive and the message loud and clear: Persistence paid off for South Korea in its third consecutive bid for the Winter Olympics. After two stinging defeats in a decade of trying, the South Korean city of Pyeongchang finally won its Olympic prize Wednesday, burying two European rivals in a landslide vote for the 2018 Winter Games and bringing them back to the lucrative Asian market. “We are grateful to people who persevere and are patient, and each time the bid has improved,” International Olympic Committee President Jacques Rogge said. The Koreans lost narrowly in the final round of voting for the 2010 and 2014 Games, but this time they defeated Munich and Annecy, France, by a one-sided margin that few had expected. “Koreans have been waiting for 10 years to host the Winter Games,” bid leader Cho Yang-ho said. “Now we have finally achieved our dream. “I believe that all the IOC members understood our message. They understood it was right time, right place, right now.” Needing 48 votes for victory, Pyeongchang won an overwhelming 63 of the 95 cast in the first round of the secret ballot. Munich received 25 and Annecy seven.

It might be pain of bruises, scrapes or broken bones, defending champion Contador and most of the other crash victims bounced back to finish the 102-mile trek from Carhaix to Cap Frehel along the rocky western French shores on the English Channel. less money, but it’s a lot nicer being here.” In the dozen years since he first arrived in Key West, Hutchinson has accomplished what he first set out to do: Discover the sailing world. “It wasn’t what I expected, but it’s what I found,” he said.

Tacitus, who lived until circa A.D. 117, said, “Keen at the start, but careless at the end.” At the bridge table, someone who is keen at the start will usually be fine at the end.

Now everything is under control. And even if West had started with king-fourth of diamonds, three no-trump could still have been made. 220 HELP WANTED LOWER KEYS CALL 292-7777 X3 JULY 6 – 12, 2011 declarer continue? As always in no-trump, South should start by counting his top tricks. Here he has seven: two spades, two hearts (given the opening lead), one diamond and two clubs. This means that three diamond winners, not four, are sufficient to make the contract. Watch what happens if declarer makes the “careless” play of a diamond to dummy’s jack at trick two. An experienced East will duck smoothly. South will return to his hand with, say, a spade and play a diamond to dummy’s queen. Now East pounces with his king and returns a heart. Suddenly the contract is unmakable. Yes, if declarer does not finesse the diamond queen at trick four, he can make the contract. However, it is much better to play a low diamond from both hands at trick two. 220 HELP WANTED LOWER KEYS 328102 Keep on developing new contacts in the year ahead, because several of them will help you develop and utilize your talents.

A few months ago friends and family were invited to a beach near Seattle for the proposal. Our grandson and his live-in went for a short seaplane ride. The plane returned, beached and the couple got out. Then, surrounded by the throng on the sand and videotaped -- grandson proposed on bended knee and she, of course, accepted. Because we did not attend, my daughter is still not speaking to us. The young couple will fly to Maui in a few months for the wedding. We are among the invited, but the trip is too much for us. Your comments, please. -- BAFFLED IN BRUNSWICK, MAINE DEAR BAFFLED: I have heard of brides getting carried away and turning their wedding ceremony into the equivalent of a stage production, but this is the first time I have heard about a mother of the groom issuing a command performance for the proposal. Heaven only knows what she’s planning for the birth of their first child. DEAR ABBY: I am with a man who treats me and my kids great. He is kind, caring and very generous. I trust him. However, I have been in a couple of bad relationships. For some reason, I’m drawn to “bad” boys. I’m not sure if I really love this man because there is no “spark.” None! Should I stay with someone who is a really great person and treats me good -- but there is no passion -- and learn to live with it, or do I end the relationship? -- NOT SURE WHAT TO DO IN CANADA DEAR NOT SURE: You might as well end the relationship now because 440 UNFURN.

The man you’re seeing deserves to have someone who fully appreciates what he has to offer, which you seem unable to do. Continue dating “bad boys” until you finally stop confusing anxiety and disappointment with excitement. You appear to be one of those women who has to learn what’s important through pain. You have my sympathy. DEAR ABBY: My husband (second marriage) keeps in touch with his ex-wife. At one point, it was several times a day. I expressed my concerns to him and told him I didn’t like it and saw no need for it. It stopped -- but only for a while. I know, because I check his call and text log. I know I shouldn’t do that, but recently I found some text messages saying, “Sorry I haven’t called you.” That’s not what’s bothering me, though. It’s how they signed off. She writes, “Love you,” and he writes, “Love you mostest!” Abby, that’s what he says to me. How do I talk to him about this? I snooped. -- SNOOPED ON THE EAST COAST DEAR SNOOPED: I don’t blame you for feeling hurt and threatened by this. Almost any woman would. When he’s in a relaxed mood and you can talk without interruption, ask him if he is still in love with his ex-wife. If he says no, ask why he feels the need to remain in communication with her and why he’s telling her he loves her “mostest.” Expect him to go on the attack because you snooped. But you wouldn’t have done it if your intuition hadn’t made you feel insecure. And it turns out you were right. 534 COMMERCIAL PROPERTY OFFICE/ WORKSHOP/ -1970 N.Roosevelt Blvd. WAREHOUSE/ Bank Owned MARINA AREA 3,800sf.

Dubbed Key West Summer Stage, the three-week season opens on July 12 and runs through July 30, presenting a total of six plays in three fast-paced weeks, featuring a great mix of Key West’s most recognizable actors and new faces. Each specific production will run for five performances only, Tuesday through Saturday, with all curtain times at 8 p.m. Tickets are limited for each run. Productions include Sam Shepard’s iconic masterpiece, “True West,” running July 12-16; “One-acts With Teeth,” an evening of strong drama and darkly comedic singleact plays, including Edward Albee’s “The Zoo Story,” A.R. Gurney’s “The Problem,” Rebecca Craft’s “She Lived, He Said” and David Ives’ “The Philadelphia,” running July 19-23; and Richard Nelson’s “Madame Melville,” which has been called one of the most sensual and exquisitely-painted plays ever written, running July 26-30. All plays will be produced by TheatreXP, a company founded by Key West actor/ writer/director Bob Bowersox late last year, in association with Fantasy Fest Queen Anne O’Shea’s Minerva Productions. The concept for Bowersox’s company is similar to one that he was familiar with in Philadelphia. “It’s about putting unused assets together for the benefit of all,” Bowersox said. “Not all good actors in our community get a chance to work in a season because the number of plays that are produced each year at the two great theaters we have in Key West are limited. There are just not enough K PHOTO BY MICHAEL MARRERO Laurie Breakwell, Quincy Perkins, Hal Cosec, Jessica Miano Kruel, Rebecca Gleason, Anne O’Shea, Bob Bowersox (not shown: Tammy Shanley and Randi Reams). roles. And there are periods of time within the season when the theaters — or other functional spaces — are dark for whatever reason. And there is a wealth of great plays out there that we would love to bring to the community. It’s just a matter of pulling all the pieces together.” Bowersox, who has appeared in several plays at the Red Barn (“Rompers,” “Short Attention Span Theatre”), and at the Waterfront Playhouse (“12 Angry Men”), and his producing partner at TheatreXP, actor Quincy Perkins (“12 Angry Men,” “Glengarry Glen Ross,” “Greetings”) began discussions with Red Barn Artistic Director Joy Hawkins and Managing Director Mimi MacDonald while Bowersox was stage managing the theater’s hit show “Becky’s New Car” this past spring. Hawkins and MacDonald were looking for ways to expand the Red Barn’s annual schedule and the idea of a summer season was appealing to them. “With the rise in summer tourism we think Key West has an audience for a summer theater season,” MacDonald said. “And we are thrilled that Theatre XP brings so much talent as well as enthusiasm for this summer season of plays. The shows promise to be inventive, exciting and entertaining.” And both Hawkins and MacDonald liked the idea of having a professional, responsible theater organization working with them on the new endeavor. “This group is very dedicated to bringing exciting theater to hot summer nights and showcasing talents and shows that inspire them,” Hawkins said. “We hope Key West jumps into those seats on this new theatrical ride.” With an agreement in place, Bowersox, Perkins and the third producing partner at TheatreXP, actor/director Hal Cosec, then set about selecting their season. “We liked the idea of pushing the envelope a little,” Bowersox said, referring to the types of plays they wanted to work on. “We think there’s room — and a desire in the audiences — for plays with a little more edge, a little more darkness in the comedy. And we think we’ve found just that.” The Key West Summer Stage at the Red Barn opens Tuesday, July 12, with “True West,” arguably playwright Sam Shepard’s finest work. The play centers on two brothers — one a respectable family man and well-paid screenwriter, the other a rene- gade loner and burglar — and on the surface, seems to comically be skewering Hollywood deal-making and the cheap illusions bred by that industry. But on a deeper level, this voyeuristic view into the rivalries of two emotionally wounded men takes on the myth of the American frontier and its fantasies of escape from lives we may not have chosen. The play stars Quincy Perkins, Hal Cosec, Bob Bowersox and Anne O’Shea. It will be directed by Bowersox. The second week of Summer Stage opens Tuesday, July 19, with “One-acts With Teeth,” an evening of edgy drama and dark comedy provided by four powerful single-act plays. “The Zoo Story” stars Perkins and Cosec in Edward Albee’s brilliant look at a momentary skirmish in the ongoing confrontation between middle-class America and the outcasts of society. A.R. Gurney’s “The Problem” is a delightful play that makes the audience delighted voyeurs to an upper-crust couple’s razor-sharp repartee about a problem between them that is definitely not what it seems. The play stars Bowersox and Rebecca Gleason (“Lend Me a Tenor”). Perhaps the edgiest drama of the evening is “She Lived, He Said,” a pow- erhouse original piece written by Rebecca Craft — a friend of Bowersox’s — that focuses on the emotional fallout of abuse. It stars Bowersox and Jessica Miano Kruel (“Dirty Rotten Scoundrels”). The final play of the evening is the hilarious “The Philadelphia,” by David Ives, wherein Laurie Breakwell, Jessica Miano Kruel and Hal Cosec find themselves passing through metaphysical realities none of them expected to encounter. The final week’s play is Richard Nelson’s “Madame Melville,” which opens July 26 and stars Breakwell, Perkins, Tammy Shanley and Bowersox, directed by Cosec. Called “one of the most sensual and exquisitely-painted plays ever written,” it is set in Paris in 1966 and presents the story of a young American student and his beautiful teacher. In the course of one night and one day, the boy discovers an unimagined world where beauty, loneliness, sex and art are one. There will be an opening night party following each play’s Tuesday night opening, and anyone with a ticket to that night’s performance is invited to stay and enjoy the food and bar provided by the Grand Café, one of the Summer Stage sponsors, and mingle with the cast and crew of the Summer Stage season, all of whom will be in attendance. Tickets are available by calling TheatreXP at 302-5406102 or going to either www. keywestsummerstage.com or www.theatrexp.org. Single show tickets are $28 for general seating. Sponsors of the Key West Summer Stage at the Red Barn Theatre are Conch Color, the Grand Café, and Royal Furniture. For further information, visit www.theatrexp.org.

Introduced by Mike Marrero, these 10 or so videos range from spoofs to spy stories to documentaries. Marrero and his friends at Digital Island Media created many of these shorts over the past five years as entries for a national competition called the 48-Hour Film Project — a challenge that gives filmmakers only 48 hours to script, cast, film, edit and screen a 4- to 6-minute video. Among the locals represented at the Tropic showing are Steve Panariello, Chad A Newman, Chris Shultz, Dave Sloan and Marky Pierson — as well as Mike Marrero. Many of them make commercial videos as their day job. But in their spare time they create films and documentaries for their own satisfaction. Among the short films on the program are “Clown Dojo,” “Bug: 30,” “Shrimp Tales,” “Bocce,” “Stock Island Picture Show,” “The Candidate,” and a TSKW documentary about late Key West artist Carolyn Fuller. About 10 pieces in all. In a 90-minute program, Mike Marrero and Chad Newman will comment on each of the short films and host a Q&A discussion with the audience after the screening.

Franchises — not just a sequel but a series of movies — allow audiences to “enjoy another bite of the apple,” as one director put it. Those “Friday the 13th” frightfests were a popular franchise. So was “Halloween.” Even “The Karate Kid” and “American Pie” spawned short franchises. What are your favorite movie franchises? Here’s my Top 10 list: 10. “Shrek” — There are four computer-animated fairy tales in this series about a big green ogre with a kind heart — plus a 3D short and two TV specials. While Dreamworks says we’ve seen the last of the “Shrek” movies, this franchise lives on with an upcoming “Puss in Boots” spin-off. 9. “Die Hard” — Bruce Willis turned himself into an action hero with these four films about a policeman who finds ‘T himself fighting terrorists single-handedly. There are even video game spin-offs. 8. “Aliens” — This horror film set in outer space deserves more credit than it usually gets. Here, Sigourney Weaver proved that women could be action heroes too. 7. “Lord of the Rings” — A masterful retelling of J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy epic by director Peter Jackson. The trilogy will be followed by Tolkien’s prequel, “The Hobbit.” 6. “Pirates of the Caribbean” — His eyes lined with mascara, Johnny Depp turned a theme park ride into a rollicking pirate saga, four seafaring films and counting. 5. “Harry Potter” — The seven fantasy novels by J. K. Rowling about young wizards and witches have been turned into eight epic films, the last to be released in a few weeks. 4. “Indiana Jones” — Steven Spielberg turned archeology into an adventurous profession, replete with bullwhips, fedoras and magical lost arks. After five movies starring Harrison Ford, there’s speculation that the franchise may continue with Shia LaBeouf playing his son. 3. “James Bond” — Ian Fleming’s British spy has engendered one of the longest running franchises, 22 films in all with six different actors playing Bond. It’s the highest grossing film series ever. 2. “Star Wars” — George Lucas gave us six films and various spin-offs in this space opera franchise that plays like a futuristic Wizard of Oz. 1. Marvel Superheroes — Not formally a single franchise, all those movies based on Marvel comic book characters — Spider-Man, the X-Men, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, you name ’em — when taken as a whole create one big Marvel Universe franchise. Sure, this Top 10 order reflects my own tastes. Having worked at Marvel Entertainment, these superhero movies score high with me. And having also worked at Scholastic, “Harry Potter” beats out “Lord of the Rings” on my list. Whether your favorite is the comedic cheerleader series “Bring It On” or the gory “Saw” movies or DC’s new “Batman” films or even the “Transformers” flicks, let me know which are your own personal favorites. One of my next Top 10 lists will look at the old-time movie franchises that captured my youthful imagination. Be thinking about yours.

The latter is Key West’s first (as near as anyone knows) Conch Cruiser Flower Power Paint-In. For a small fee, guests are invited to paint a flower on Hanson’s car; there’s an interesting dent to challenge the super creative, she said. And there will be a prize for the best ’60s costume. There will be no presents allowed but guests are asked to bring finger food for a potluck. Then there will be the usual silent auction, door prizes, 50-50 and music — ’60s hits for dancing. In other words, there will be three hours of gleeful fundraising to benefit Sister Season Fund. It’s almost guaranteed Julie Hanson will be giving back far more than she got.

TSKW is looking for local and national artists who would like to showcase original artwork in the unique garden environment adjacent to the historic Armory at 600 White St. “The garden is a beautiful outdoor space that celebrates dynamic works of art,” said Jay Scott, executive director. “It is a pleasure to offer yearround sculpture installations to the thousands of people who visit TSKW.” Over the past few years, the sculpture garden has hosted T PHOTO COURTESY OF THE STUDIOS OF KEY WEST Anja Marais’ ‘Revolving Life’ from the 2008 installation. the work of nearly two dozen artists including Anja Marais, Lauren McAloon, Jackie Sanchez, Jim Racchi, Susan Rodgers, John Martini, Eliza Proctor, Maya Godlewska, Katie Truax and others.
