Mayor Craig Cates said Hurricane perfect for drone test this week he plans to bring forward a resolution to force a decision as the city is behind schedule in settling a lawsuit over where the Keys Overnight Temporary Shelter (KOTS) has sat since 2004. “If somebody comes up with a better location, I’m all for it,” Cates said Thursday. “I’m not forcing it. I’ve been trying to bring this forward. We’re behind. We have to do something.” Last October, the city agreed to settle a lawsuit brought by Sunset Marina homeowners who claimed KOTS went up in 2004 with- out city leaders taking it through the proper permitting.

Additional raffles will take place all weekend as The Florida Keys Mosquito Control board will not raise property taxes in the fiscal year that starts Oct. 1, despite coming out of an expensive rainy season and buying an $800,000 piece of property for a planned $2.5 million building. The board set a property tax rate Wednesday night that would levy $48 per $100,000 of property value, which will generate roughly $9.7 million. The owner of a $442,000 home, which is the average price of a home in the Keys, would pay $213 next fiscal year, Executive Director Michael Doyle said. The proposed rate is at rollback, the rate that would generate the same amount of tax revenue as the current year. Four of the past five years, the district has brought in a budget at rollback, Doyle said. “It’s going to be a tight year,” Doyle said. “If you factor in inflation, our budget has gone down.” The district had to increase the amount of chemicals it used this year because of the amount of rain this summer, Doyle said. In a normal year, the district would spend $900,000 on chemicals. This fiscal year, the district is on track to spend $1.2 million to $1.3 million, Doyle said.

KEY WEST Annual Peterson’s Poker Run under way BY MANDY MILES Citizen Staff At 70 mph on a motorcycle, raindrops may as well be rocks. That was the sentiment of retired brothers Rob and Lou Johnson, who roared into Key West late Thursday afternoon astride their prized custom Harley-Davidsons. “The weather report up home looked better for Thursday than Friday, so we decided to climb aboard and head south,” said Lou Johnson, a retiree from Port St. Lucie who has been enjoying Key West’s annual Poker Run, sponsored by Peterson’s HarleyDavidson, for the past six years. “We missed being part of the motorcycle mobs on U.S. 1 coming down Friday, but at 70 mph, rain drops might as well be rocks, so we’re glad to be here safe and sound.

CRIME REPORT 87/79 88/79 87/79 A chance of thunderstorms A comfortable day of sunshine and clouds Mainly cloudy with a t-storm Tallahassee 87/69 Pensacola 87/70 CITIZEN STAFF STOCK ISLAND — A 42year-old man accused of exposing himself to a plainclothes detective was arrested Wednesday, according to a Monroe County Sheriff’s Office report. Osneil Bello Machin, 42, of Stock Island, was accused of exposure of sexual organs. The detective was parked at the intersection of 5th Avenue and Cross Street at 11:45 a.m. in an unmarked sheriff ’s office vehicle when Machin reportedly walked up to the front of the vehicle, looking at the detective through the windshield. “The rents are high, the pay is low and we can’t make it much longer. God, how I love this place.” “It’s time for Monroe County to address this invasive carnivorous problem. It’s just not the foliage problems, it’s our bird life. I have watched an iguana eat a pigeon’s nest and also go after a baby ibis. They have no redeeming quality. They breed 70 to 100 eggs at a time.” “I understand that FDOT did not put a fence on the promenade so that we could enjoy the view. It’s too bad that there is a traffic sign every 10 feet.” Machin then reportedly said something the detective could not understand, unzipped his pants and exposed himself while yelling something to others who were in the vicinity, according to reports. He then zipped his pants back up and walked away, throwing his hands into the air, reports state. Machin was taken to Monroe County Detention Center on Stock Island.

You have to make a decision.” The legal timetable gives the city until Feb. 26 to have secured relocation approval from the planning board. In December, City Planner Don Craig presented a list of Key West locations that could accommodate a homeless shelter. Commissioners ranked their favorite as the Department of Juvenile Justice building next door to the county jail off College Road, but since the building is already filled with tenants it was later scratched as an option. That left the city’s secondplace site, the old Easter Seals property whose neighbors include the Key West Golf Course Homeowners Association, which has shown distaste for the plan for more than two years. Commissioners meet next at 6 p.m. on Oct. 7 at Old City Hall, 510 Greene St. On Tuesday, they were shown some designs for a new homeless shelter complex at the Easter Seals lot. Landscape architect Keith Oropeza volunteered a year ago to draw up some plans for free as a way to help the city. “A roof, some fencing, a Photo courtesy of Alyson Crean/city of Key West Key West Police Officer Alex Rodriguez, left, has been recognized with a Chief’s Commendation and as Officer of the First Half, 2014. Among several instances of duty above and beyond was his treatment of a scooter crash in which the operator was injured. Because the victim was hospitalized, Rodriguez went to his house, walked the dogs and then coordinated with a fellow officer who lived nearby to continue the care. “Officer Rodriguez’s actions and civility are to be commended and are in keeping with the highest expectations of the Key West Police Department,” said Chief Donie Lee, right. “It becomes a city of Key West problem solely because of the geography and the fact we’re the only ones in the whole county doing anything about it.

Commissioner Tony Yaniz took issue with the plans, saying he hadn’t heard of them until a week ago. He added that he has spent the past year arguing the city should build workforce housing on the old Easter Seals lot. “The clock has been ticking on affordable workforce housing in the city since 1940,” Yaniz said. “I think we have a much more critical problem with the fact that the people who work for a living in this community can’t afford a roof over their heads.” City Commissioner Mark Rossi said Key West taxpayers can’t shoulder the entire burden of sheltering the homeless. “It’s not just the city of Key West’s problem,” Rossi said. “I’d be more than happy to do a joint venture with Monroe County. I realize the clock is ticking. Let’s sit down with the county again.” The city has a monthto-month agreement with Hurricane Edouard right environment for drone test Mosquito Continued from Page 1A BY JENNIFER KAY The Associated Press MIAMI — Hurricane Edouard was the perfect environment to test new data-collecting drones because the storm was strong, had a well-defined eye and never threatened land, U.S. government scientists said Thursday. Four drones called Coyotes — shaped like thin missiles with retractable wings — were launched into the hurricane this week, even as Edouard had 115 mph winds far out in the Atlantic. The drones collected data from parts of the storm that were too low for a hurricane hunter plane to safely fly in. Researchers had been hoping for this type of hurricane to test the drones’ durability. “The stars lined up,” said Joe Cione of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Hurricane Research Division in Miami. “It was strong, we knew where it was going, we had a deployment point where we could get in and out easily.” Researchers hope the drones will help them better understand what makes some storms strengthen while others fizzle. Having that information while a storm is still far offshore could help officials better plan for evacuations or storm surge risks. It was the first time that the drones have been dropped into a hurricane. The 3-foot-long, 7-pound devices stayed in the hurricane for up to an hour, transmitting temperature, pressure and wind observations before falling to the ocean. The drones are covered with sensors and have a small motor on them. They are maneuvered NOAA/The Associated Press This photo provided by NOAA shows one of four drones ready to be released into Hurricane Edouard from a hurricane hunter plane flying over the Atlantic Ocean. by computer software. They can be used only once. Scientists also drop canisters filled with electronics to transmit data as they fall to the ocean, but they remain airborne for only a few minutes. Cione said those devices deliver snapshots compared to the lengthy transmissions sent back by the drones. National Hurricane Center forecasters and other scientists will spend months analyzing the data transmitted by the drones. The preliminary results were potential game changers, Cione said. One drone followed air currents through the storm. Another drone launched into Edouard’s calm eye was directed into the intense eyewall in a maneuver that Cione likened to merging onto a busy highway. “There’s no other device that can do that,” he said by phone from Bermuda, where the drone-bearing hurricane hunter flights originated. “It orbited the eyewall, and we’ve never measured anything like that.” Some technical kinks with the communications systems need to be worked out and funding needs to be secured before the drones can become a regular part of the hurricane hunter operations. Cione hopes to secure funding to test a few more drones next year. NOAA got a handful of the drones this year to test during the peak of hurricane season, thanks federal funding after Hurricane Sandy. On Thursday, Edouard weakened to a tropical storm as it moved into colder waters. The heavy rain has meant more time spraying, which has resulted in an extra $150,000 in helicopter maintenance costs, Doyle said. “It’s been a rough year,” he said. Doyle called Wednesday’s budget meeting the fastest one he has sat through. “I think there is more trust between the board and the administration on how the money is spent,” he said. District Commissioner Phil Goodman, who is the fiscal watchdog of the board, called the budget a good fiscal plan despite all of the costs with the the county right now for KOTS, which sits next to the Sheriff’s Department headquarters and the county jail. “It becomes a city of Key West problem solely because of the geography and the fact we’re the only ones in the whole county doing anything about it,” said Commissioner Clayton Lopez. “The other municipalities are sitting back to see what Key West does.

CLARIN/PUBLISHER GARY E. MAITLAND/EDITOR ROBERT CINTRON JR. KEN DOMANSKI TODD GERMAN W. ANN REYNOLDS THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2014 OPINION Militarizing police: The good and bad n the aftermath of the riots in Ferguson, Mo., members of Congress are up in arms about the U.S. government supplying excess military equipment to local police forces. Even conservatives are taking issue with the government offering police armored vehicles, automatic weapons, camouflage uniforms and such. Sen. Tom Coburn, an Oklahoma Republican, questioned the justification for providing local forces 617 Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles, The Associated Press reports. “It’s not a truck. It’s an offensive weapon,” he said during a recent hearing of the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee. Sen. Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, was baffled the Pentagon distributed 14,000 bayonets to local law enforcement operations. Liberals were the first to complain about police militarization, with the ACLU issuing a report decrying police for using battlefield tactics. The Obama administration is reviewing government programs that supply law enforcement with military equipment, and that’s appropriate — as is the Justice Department’s just-announced study of possible racial bias at police departments. But we suggest the politicos hold off on a rush to judgment. There may be incidents of misuse of military equipment, but police forces across the country are hardly driving tanks through the streets or goose-stepping I Editorial through neighborhoods. Law enforcement is more likely these days to emphasize collaboration and communication with residents and utilize such neighborhood-friendly tactics as community policing. It’s also important that law enforcement officers be able to defend themselves against increasingly wellarmed outlaws. Law enforcement is a dangerous job, and already this year three-dozen officers have been shot to death. Sometimes they are even targeted for assassination by extremists, as appears to be the case in the murder of a Pennsylvania trooper last weekend. Moreover, not all the military equipment is what it seems. Surplus military equipment can include mobile kitchens and trailers that are used when deputies go to other communities to help after a natural disaster. The government may also supply bomb-disposal equipment. The surplus military equipment, from nightvision goggles to bulletproof vehicles, is more likely to be needed by smaller police departments than large operations that can afford new equipment. There may be a need for better guidelines on what is appropriate for local police forces. But the implication there is something sinister in the government providing local police forces the tools needed to protect lives and enforce the law is reprehensible. — Tampa Tribune GOVERNMENT WEBSITES: Monroe County http://www.monroecounty-fl.gov Monroe County Sheriff’s Office http://www.keysso.net City of Key West http://www.keywestcity.com Monroe County School District http://www.keysschools.com City of Marathon http://www.ci.marathon.fl.us Monroe County Clerk http://www.clerk-of-the-court.com Village of Islamorada http://www.islamorada.fl.us Monroe County Property Appraiser http://www.mcpafl.org City of Key Colony Beach http://www.keycolonybeach.net Monroe County Tax Collector http://www.monroetaxcollector. com/index.html It’s an era of general institutional decay capacity as people die on the streets outside.

I wonder if we are looking at the results of a cultural shift. A few generations ago, people grew up in and were comfortable with big organizations — the army, corporations and agencies. They organized huge construction projects in the 1930s, gigantic industrial mobilization during World War II, highway construction and corporate growth during the 1950s. Institutional stewardship, the care and reform of big organizations, was more prestigious. Now nobody wants to be an Organization Man. We like startups, disrupters and rebels. Creativity is honored more than the administrative execution. Post-Internet, many people assume that big problems can be solved by swarms of small, loosely networked nonprofits and social entrepreneurs. Big hierarchical organizations are dinosaurs. The Ebola crisis is another example that shows that this is misguided. The big, stolid agencies — the health ministries, the infrastructure builders, the procurement agencies — are the bulwarks of the civil and global order. Public and nonprofit management, the stuff that gets derided as “overhead,” really matters. It’s as important to attract talent to health ministries as it is to spend money on specific medicines. As recent books by Francis Fukuyama and Philip Howard have detailed, this is an era of general institutional decay. New, mobile institutions languish on the drawing broad, while old ones are not reformed and tended. Executives at public agencies are robbed of discretionary power. Their hands are bound by court judgments and regulations. When the boring tasks of governance are not performed, infrastructures don’t get built. Then, when epidemics strike, people die. David Brooks is a syndicated columnist with The New York Times. Sanford’s Facebook rant is more than voters care to know BY GAIL COLLINS The New York Times et us all contemplate the fact that Rep. Mark Sanford of South Carolina is running for reelection unopposed. Sanford was, of course, the governor who sneaked off to Argentina for an assignation while his befuddled aides claimed he was hiking on the Appalachian Trail. Now he’s the Facebook congressman, who announced his breakup with his Argentine-squeezeturned-fiancée in a 2,346word posting that was mainly a whine about his ex-wife, the divorce settlement and visitation rules. “I think I owe you my thinking on this personal, but now public matter,” he told the world. Which most definitely had not asked for the information. This is precisely the sort of thing his constituents should have been dreading when they gave the 54-year-old Republican another chance in a special L House election last year. Sanford’s problem is less his libido than his remarkable, garrulous self-absorption. The man can’t stop sharing. Returning from his Argentina foray, he gave an interview to The Associated Press in which he philosophized about the “sex line” that set his mistress, María Belén Chapur, apart from other women for whom he’d lusted. And he held an endless news conference, perhaps the only moment in American political history in which a politician talked about his illicit sex life so much that everybody got bored with the subject. (“I’ll tell you more detail than you’ll ever want. ...”) This was the same appearance in which he made the memorable announcement: “I spent the last five days crying in Argentina.” And thus was born a legend. Sanford got a clean start by running for Congress in a campaign that was long on the power of divine forgiveness and short on appearances by Chapur. Once elected, he kept a low profile. Then came the Facebook posting, yet another reminder of the importance of keeping elected officials away from social media. Sanford ranted about a recent family court filing in which his ex-wife, Jenny, asked that he be required to undergo a psychiatric evaluation and complete an anger management program. The congressman defended himself by sounding both angry and crazy. “I cannot do this anymore,” he wrote, launching into a litany of complaints about Jenny and the lawyers, along with repeated references to his own incredible self-restraint. In what sounded almost like an afterthought, he announced that he was also breaking up with Chapur. “Maybe there will be another chapter when waters calm with Jenny, but at this point the environment is not conducive to building anything given no one would want to be caught in the middle of what’s now happening,” he wrote. In fact, his fiancée totally did want to be caught in the middle and had been demanding that Sanford finally come through with a wedding ring. He had been stalling five years. Once it turned out that he was running without an opponent this fall, Chapur might have reasonably expected that the moment had arrived. Sanford then decreed that he needed to wait two more years until his youngest son was no longer a minor. Chapur declined. She told The New York Times’ Jim Rutenberg that she didn’t expect her ex-fiance to keep it a secret. But she had presumably expected a more tasteful announcement — say pamphlets tossed out of a hot-air balloon. “I learned it from the press today,” she told Rutenberg. So Sanford has defined himself as the exact incumbent you’d make a special trip to the polls to vote against. But there’s no Democrat in the race. “It wasn’t for lack of trying,” said Jaime Harrison, the Democratic state chairman, in a phone interview. The party, he explained, had high hopes of defeating Sanford last year when its candidate was Elizabeth Colbert Busch. When she lost by 9 percentage points, “that kind of deflated the spirits of some people.” You can understand the Democrats feeling as if there are some things worse than a blank space on the ballot. Last election cycle they failed to keep a close eye on who was running in their Senate primary and wound up with an unemployed man who was facing obscenity charges for showing a female college student a pornographic picture. Then, the party was preoccupied with fending off another Senate hopeful who had pleaded guilty to three felony charges related to his business dealings. Stuff happens in South Carolina. Who can forget the time the agriculture commissioner was indicted for taking payoffs to protect a cockfighting ring? Or Thomas Ravenel, the state treasurer who pleaded guilty to buying cocaine and spent 10 months in prison? He’s now running for the Senate as an independent and appearing in a reality T.V. show called “Southern Charm” in which he got one of his co-stars pregnant during the first season. You have to wonder how much space there is between Mark Sanford and reality T.V. The voters should demand assurances that he isn’t signed up for an upcoming season of “The Bachelor.” Although if he is, there’s not a heck of a lot they can do about it now.

SAN FRANCISCO PHILADELPHIA Man charged with tampering Apple locks itself out of devices Judge questions T-shirt The brother of a man accused of kidnapping and killing a 20-year-old nursing student has been charged with tampering with evidence in the case. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said in a news release Thursday that on April 13, 2011, the day Holly Bobo disappeared in West Tennessee, 26-year-old John Dylan Adams of Decatur County disposed of items he knew could be evidence in the case. Adams is the brother of Zachary Adams. He was charged with murder in March and his family has property about 6 miles from where Bobo’s remains were found by ginseng hunters this month. Another man, Jason Autry, faces the same charges as Zachary Adams. Both men have pleaded not guilty. Apple has tightened its technological security so not even the company can pry into a password-protected iPhone or iPad in a move meant to reassure the millions of people who are increasingly storing vital pieces of their lives on the devices. The additional safeguard is part of Apple’s latest mobile software, iOS 8, which the Cupertino, Calif., company released Wednesday. Apple Inc. revealed the stronger protection in a new section of its website that is prefaced with a letter from CEO Tim Cook emphasizing the company’s “fundamental” commitment to privacy and security. The company’s inability to unlock password-protected smartphones and tablets could frustrate law enforcement officials who sometimes obtain court orders to vacuum personal data off the phones for potential evidence in criminal investigations. A Philadelphia judge wants to know why a murder suspect appeared in court in a T-shirt that read, “Crime Pays.” Jeremiah Jakson is charged with strangling an art school graduate staying in the same boarding house. Prosecutors believe Jakson killed 23year-old Laura Araujo in July in order to steal her laptop and bank card. They say he then stuffed her body in a duffel bag and torched her vehicle. Jakson told Municipal Court Judge Teresa Carr Deni at Wednesday’s preliminary hearing that he was given the shirt in jail and had nothing else to wear. The judge has asked his lawyer to investigate. Meanwhile, she upheld murder, arson and other charges against the 22-year-old Jakson. LOS ANGELES DAMIAN DOVARGANES/The Associated Press California Gov.

John Albert Elway, 25, entered his plea Tuesday and was sentenced to one year of probation that includes domestic violence counseling. Prosecutors withdrew an assault charge. The sentence is a deferred judgment, which means the entire case will be dismissed if Elway completes the counseling and does not reoffend. Elway was arrested in May after his girlfriend told Denver police that he pulled her from a car by her hair after an argument. She said he shoved her to the ground when she tried to get back inside, causing scrapes to her knees. Police say Elway then fled and was arrested at his father’s home in suburban Denver. Under the plea, Elway is forbidden from possessing firearms and from having contact with the woman in the case, court records show. ✬✬✬✬✬ ATLANTA — A federal judge in Atlanta has tossed out a lawsuit filed against rapper Nicki Minaj by her former wig designer. In a lawsuit in February, Terrence Davidson accused Onika Maraj, who uses the stage name “Nicki Minaj,” and Pink Personality LLC of breaking implied contracts, reneging on discussions to launch a reality TV show and a wig line, and misappropriating his designs. Lawyers for Minaj filed a motion in May to dismiss the Minaj lawsuit, arguing that Davidson failed to state a valid claim. U.S. District Judge Harold Murphy on Tuesday did just that. He agreed that Davidson did not state viable claims against Minaj and Pink Personality. A lawyer for Davidson did not immediately respond to Brighter economy driving up holiday hiring stopped working as her stylist in early 2013. He said Minaj took his designs without his consent and used them to start her own wig line. Minaj’s lawyers countered that Davidson “is upset because he lost his most famous client” and was seeking to force himself into a business relationship that Minaj and Pink Personality developed without him to get money from them that he didn’t earn. ✬✬✬✬✬ NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Grand Ole Opry Member George Hamilton IV, who was one of country music’s first international ambassadors, has died. He was 77. A news release from the Opry says Hamilton died Wednesday at a Nashville hospital after a heart attack. Hamilton had been an Opry member since 1960, when he made the switch from pop music to country. He said the decision came after catching a performance of the Opry at Ryman Auditorium. Hamilton worked with Hamilton IV producer Chet Atkins on a number of hits and scored his first country No. 1 with “Abilene” in 1963. He brought country music to Russia and Czechoslovakia and recorded the first country album in Eastern Europe. Over the years, he hosted countrythemed television shows in Britain and Canada. Couple in slaying sentenced to life BY PETER JACKSON The Associated Press BY ANNE D’INNOCENZIO AND PAUL WISEMAN SUE OGROCKI/The Associated Press The Associated Press In this Nov. 26, 2013, photo, toy department manager Gayla Harris stocks shelves for Black Friday sales at a Wal-Mart NEW YORK — UPS will store in Oklahoma City. hire up to 95,000. Kohl’s plans to take on 67,000 and FedEx 50,000. Wal-Mart will add 60,000. One after the other, a flurry of major U.S. retail and transportation companies announced sharp increases this week in the number of temporary workers they plan to hire for the holiday season. Collectively, such hiring could reach its highest point this year for stores since 1999, when the economy was roaring and the Great Recession was still eight years away. Credit the combination of a strengthening economy and optimism about consumer spending. Stores have determined that they’ll need more temporary help for the holiday season, which accounts for 20 percent of the retail industry’s annual sales. Their stepped-up hiring plans reflect another reality, too: More retailers have come to recognize the need to improve their customer service in the age of online king Amazon. Many shoppers now jump back and forth between their mobile devices and physical stores and expect the same easy shopping experience at both. an email seeking comment Thursday. Davidson, who lives in Georgia, said in the lawsuit that he began working as Minaj’s hair stylist in early 2010. He created multiple wigs for the rapper, known for her flamboyant hairpieces, that she wore to a preshow for MTV’s Video Music Awards, during media appearances in London and for the music video “SuperBass.” Davidson said he turned down a contract for a reality TV show at the urging of a Minaj representative. At the time, Davidson said he was discussing doing a joint reality show with Minaj and launching a line of wigs with the music star. But months passed, and Davidson said Minaj and her team shut him out. He Challenger Gray & Christmas Inc., a global outplacement consultancy, predicts retailers will add more than 800,000 seasonal workers for the Octoberthrough-December period. Such hiring last topped that figure in 1999, when stores added 849,500 temporary workers. It credits brightening confidence among consumers. “The last two years saw holiday hiring return to pre-recession levels,” said John Challenger, CEO of the Chicago-based outplacement firm. “This year, we could see hiring return to levels not seen since the height of the dot.com boom... There are more people who are surer about their spending.” The outlook for job and income growth have both improved, says Bernard Baumohl, chief global economist at the Economic Outlook Group. The unemployment rate has tumbled to 6.1 percent. A year ago, it was 7.2 percent. Three years ago, it was 9 percent. So far this year, employers have added a solid average of 215,000 jobs a month, up from a monthly average of 194,000 in 2013 and 186,000 in 2012. Companies have been slower to offer workers decent pay increases, but that may finally be changing, Baumohl says. Workers’ inflation-adjusted earnings rose 0.4 percent in August, the Labor Department said Wednesday. It was the sharpest monthly gain in more than a year. Consumers, long beaten down by the recession’s bleak aftermath, have been feeling more hopeful. A measure of consumer confidence by the Conference Board reached a seven-year high last month. And after shrinking their debt loads for years after the recession officially ended in 2009, consumers are pulling out their credit cards again. Their borrowing rose in July at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 9.7 percent. That matched April’s increase for the fastest growth in three years. From April through June, consumer spending rose at an annual pace of 2.5 percent — twice the pace of the first three months of the year, when a harsh winter kept many shoppers home. SUNBURY, Pa. — A newlywed couple whose Craigslist ad lured a stranger to his death were sentenced Thursday to life in prison without parole by a judge who said their “permanent removal” from society is appropriate. Neither 19-year-old Miranda Barbour nor her 22-year-old husband, Elytte, displayed emotion as they sat with their lawyers in the courtroom while some of the victim’s relatives described the grief and pain they have experience since the Nov. 11 murder. “Even if they each serve 50 years, they still will not feel any guilt or sympathy,” said Holly LaFerrara, the victim’s sister. “They completely lack empathy. They have no conscience, no remorse and no moral compass. “They lack the most basic element of humanity,” she said. “These are two fundamentally flawed people who are rotten to the core.” Elytte Barbour read a written apology in court but said he could not explain his participating in what he acknowledged was “a senseless crime.” “It is not the person who I am,” he said. “It’s not the person I want to be.” Miranda Barbour didn’t address the judge. DAN GLEITER/The Associated Press Miranda Barbour enters the Northumberland County courthouse for sentencing on Thursday in Sunbury, Pa. The couple pleaded guilty last month to second-degree murder, which carries a mandatory life sentence, in a plea deal that ruled out the death penalty. They were married in North Carolina and moved to central Pennsylvania about three weeks before they met up with the victim, Troy LaFerrara, 42, of Port Trevorton, when he responded to an ad offering female companionship. On the day LaFerrara was killed, Miranda Barbour picked him up at a mall in Selinsgrove and drove to Sunbury while Elytte hid on the back seat under a blanket. Once they parked, Elytte Barbour emerged from his hiding place and held a cord tight against LaFerrara’s neck while his petite wife stabbed the 6-foot-2, 278pound man about 20 times. They dumped his body in an alley. Elytte Barbour told police the couple killed LaFerrara because they wanted to kill someone together.

Islamic State militants have decapitated American and British hostages in recent weeks, while four French journalists held by some of the same captors were released earlier this year. A former U.S. ambassador to Mali has said the French government paid $17 million to free French hostages kidnapped in Niger in 2010 and handed to al-Qaida. Hollande said Thursday that “France doesn’t pay. France tries each time to save the hostages.” He added that other countries have exchanged prisoners with kidnappers to free French hostages, in an apparent reference to a French family held by Boko Haram in Cameroon last year. And he noted that sometimes French hostages are killed too. The prime minister of Guinea says seven bodies have been found in rural Guinea after a group of local residents attacked Guinean health workers carrying out Ebola awareness efforts in a rural area. In an announcement made on state television late Thursday, Mohamed Saïd Fofana said authorities had located the bodies a day after the group was abducted by assailants armed with rocks and knives in the village of Wome. Among the dead were three Guinean radio journalists who had been covering the education efforts. An Ebola epidemic in West Africa first emerged in Guinea earlier this year. Many residents of rural villages have reacted with fear and panic when outsiders have come to conduct awareness campaigns and have even attacked health clinics. France has agreed to carry out airstrikes requested by Iraq to bolster its fight against the Islamic State group’s fighters who’ve captured swathes of the country, President Francois Hollande said Thursday. Hollande stressed that France wouldn’t go beyond airstrikes in support of the Iraqi military or Kurdish Peshmerga forces, and wouldn’t attack targets in Syria, where the Islamic State group has also captured territory. He said he would inform the parliament of the planned action “as soon as the first strikes — that is to say, soon.” Speaking during his twice-yearly news conference, Hollande said he agreed to Iraq’s request for air support at a meeting of his top defense and security advisers earlier in the day. “This morning I decided to respond to the request of Iraqi authorities to provide air support,” Hollande said. “We won’t go beyond this. There won’t be troops on the ground. And we will act only in Iraq.” VICTOR R.

PARIS Vote counting begins in Scotland on independence BY JILL LAWLESS The Associated Press EDINBURGH, Scotland — Excitement vied with apprehension as Scottish voters went to the polls Thursday in a referendum on independence, deciding whether to dissolve a 307-year union with England that brought prosperity but has increasingly felt stifling to many Scots. As the polls closed and the vote counting began, there was a quiet thrill of history in the making on the fog-shrouded streets of Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh. Many Scots were staying up all night in homes and bars to watch the results roll in. Eager voters had lined up outside some polling stations even before they opened at 7 a.m. Many polling stations were busy and turnout was expected to be high. More than 4.2 million people had registered to vote — 97 percent of those eligible — including residents as young as 16. A Yes vote would trigger 18 months of negotiations between Scottish leaders and London-based politicians on how the two countries would separate their institutions before Scotland’s planned Independence Day on March 24, 2016. MATT DUNHAM/The Associated Press A Yes campaigner and a No campaigner stand outside a polling place in Edinburgh, Scotland, on Thursday. Polls have opened across Scotland in a referendum that will decide whether the country leaves its 307-year-old union with England and becomes an independent state. For some, it was a day they had dreamed of for decades. For others, the time had finally come to make up their minds about the future — both for themselves and for the United Kingdom. “Fifty years I fought for this,” said 83-year-old Isabelle Smith, a Yes supporter in Edinburgh’s maritime district of Newhaven, a former fishing port. “And we are going to win. I can feel it in my bones.” For Smith, who went to the poll- ing station decked out in a blueand-white pro-independence shirt and rosette, statehood for Scotland was a dream nurtured during three decades living in the U.S. with her late husband. “The one thing America has that the Scots don’t have is confidence,” said Smith, who returned to Scotland years ago. “But they’re getting it, they’re walking tall.” “No matter what, Scotland will never, ever be the same again.” The question on the ballot paper could not be simpler: “Should Scotland be an independent country?” Yet it has divided Scots during months of campaigning, generating an unprecedented volume and intensity of public debate and participation. The Yes side, in particular, has energized young people and previously disillusioned working-class voters. Polls suggest the result was too close to call. A final Ipsos MORI poll released Thursday put support for the No side at 53 percent and Yes at 47 percent. The phone survey of 991 people has a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points. Until recently, polls suggested as many as 1 in 5 voters was undecided, but that number has shrunk dramatically. In the latest poll, only 4 percent remained uncertain how they would vote. Many questions — the currency independent Scotland would use, its status within the European Union and NATO, the fate of Britain’s nuclear-armed submarines, based at a Scottish port — remain uncertain or disputed after months of campaigning. After weeks in which British media have talked of little else, the television airwaves were almost a referendum-free zone Thursday. Electoral rules forbid discussion and analysis of elections on television while the polls are open. On the streets, it was a different story, with rival Yes and No billboards and campaigners outside many polling places. At an Edinburgh polling station, Thomas Roberts said he had voted Yes because he felt optimistic about Scotland’s future as an independent country. “Why not roll the dice for once?” he asked. Once the polls closed, ballot boxes were to be transported to 32 regional centers for counting. The result was expected this morning. Roberts said he was looking forward to learning the outcome in a pub, many of which were staying open overnight. “I’m going to sit with a beer in my hand watching the results coming in,” Roberts said. Many who oppose independence agreed that the campaign had reinvigorated Scottish democracy. “I support the No side, but it’s been a fascinating, worthwhile discussion about Scotland’s future,” said David Clarke, a writing consultant. “If it’s a No, it’s a win-win situation. If it’s a Yes, we will have to deal with the fact that it’s a Yes.” UN calls Ebola outbreak a threat to international peace BY EDITH M. LEDERER The Associated Press UNITED NATIONS — The U.N. Security Council called the Ebola outbreak in Africa “a threat to international peace and security” Thursday and urged the world to provide health experts, field hospitals and medical supplies to combat the rapidly accelerating and deadly virus. A resolution adopted unanimously by the U.N.’s most powerful body at an emergency meeting with an unprecedented 130 countries as co-sponsors reflected the rising global concern at the swiftly spreading Ebola outbreak in West Africa. It marked only the second time that the Security Council has addressed a public health emergency, the first being the HIV/AIDS pandemic. U.N. health chief Dr. Margaret Chan said the “deadly and dreaded Ebola virus got ahead of us” and it was now time to urgently catch up.

September 19, 2014 Key West Citizen 393370 “This is likely the greatest peacetime challenge that the United Nations and its agencies have ever faced,” she said. The World Health Organization director-general said “none of us experienced in containing outbreaks has ever seen, in our lifetimes, an emergency on this scale, with this degree of suffering, and with this magnitude of cascading consequences.” In the hardest-hit countries — Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone — “an exponentially rising caseload threatens to push governments to the brink of state failure,” Chan said. According to the latest WHO figures, 5,300 people are believed to have contracted Ebola and more than 2,600 have died, the majority in Liberia. Secretary-General Ban Kimoon said the number of Ebola cases is doubling every three weeks and called for a 20-fold increase in aid totaling almost $1 billion to tackle the crisis over the next six months. The U.N. chief said the largest outbreak of ebola in history “demands the attention of the world” and “unprecedented” action. The United Nations is leading the global response BEBETO MATTHEWS/The Associated Press A live video of Medecins Sans Frontieres physicians assistant Jackson Niamah is shown at an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council vote to adopt a resolution declaring Ebola a “threat to international peace and security” on Thursday. to contain and eradicate Ebola, and Ban announced that he is establishing a U.N. emergency mission to tackle the spiraling challenge. He thanked President Barack Obama for sending 3,000 troops to provide expertise in logistics, training and engineering, read the names of about 20 other countries that have responded with contributions, and urged all nations coming to the U.N. General Assembly ministerial meeting next week to follow suit. The Security Council encouraged the governments of Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea to accelerate the rapid diagnosis and isolation of suspected Ebola cases and launch public education campaigns about the virus. It also encouraged the three governments “to continue efforts to resolve and mitigate the wider political, security and humanitarian dimensions of the Ebola outbreak.” The resolution addresses the “detrimental effect” of the isolation of the affected countries — all poor and emerging from conflict in West Africa — especially on their economies. It calls for the lifting of travel and border restrictions imposed as a result of the Ebola outbreak, a resumption of shipping and air service to the affected countries, and steppedup efforts to deliver health workers and supplies. Jackson Naimah, a team leader for Doctors Without Borders at a treatment center in the Liberian capital Monrovia, told the council by videoconference that there aren’t enough centers and beds and people “are sitting at the gates of our centers, literally begging for their lives” and “are dying at our front door.” “They rightly feel alone, neglected, denied — left to die a horrible, undignified death,” the Liberian health expert said. “We are failing the sick because there is not enough help on the ground.” “If the international community does not stand up, we will be wiped out,” Naimah warned. 9A THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2014 House Made Daily All day Monday - Friday 11AM-10PM 615 DUVAL ST.

COOKE Citizen Staff KEY WEST – Everything went as planned for the Key West High football team during the week off, as the Conchs are at 100 percent entering today’s 7 p.m. Gold Coast Football Conference (GCFC) kickoff against North Broward Prep at Tommy Roberts Memorial Stadium. Starting fullback Mekhi Sargent has been cleared to play tonight, along with defensive lineman Phillip Barnett as Sargent the Conchs search for their sixth straight victory dating back to last season. Despite the extended win streak, coach Johnny Hughes said the Conchs are not overconfident or complacent. “It’s a conference game so there is a hunger, and we still feel like Barnett we have something to prove,” said Hughes. “The guys are healthy and we are ready to show what we have.” Sargent was in pads Tuesday and Wednesday, so the Conchs will use the Hurricanes continue trek through tough SFC BY J.W. COOKE Citizen Staff TAVERNIER – After suffering a loss for the first time this season, Coral Shores High finds its football schedule does not get any easier as the Hurricanes are on the road for the second of three straight weeks at 7 tonight against a fourth straight Southeastern Football Conference (SFC) opponent, Palm Beach Benjamin. For the second straight season, Coral Shores lost to Westminster Academy in a regular season game last Friday. The two teams were co-SFC South Division champions last season, but Hurricanes coach Ed Holly said he did not take it as a loss or a wake-up call, but rather a disappointment they can learn from and build on. “We took Frisone nothing but positives from that game,” said Holly. “I think it showed them the level of play we need to get to in order to be successful in this conference. The championship level of this conference is going to be really tough week in and week out.” The 3.5 hour drive to Palm Beach will be the longest trip of the season for Coral Shores, but Holly said he will cut the RON COOKE/The Citizen Key West quarterback Andrew Freeman rolls left in heavy traffic Wednesday at the Back Yard. junior back as much as Hughes said about the Conchs’ 1,000-yard rusher possible. “His only issue is condi- last season — the first in 17 tioning.

COOKE Citizen Staff MARATHON – After rain kept the Marathon High football team off the field last week, the Dolphins have had an extended wait to garner an initial victory under first-year coach Paul Davis. The next opportunity comes tonight at 7 when Marathon welcomes Southeastern Football Conference (SFC) Developmental Division rival Pompano Beach. “It’s time for the guys to get one,” said Davis. “Everybody knows it’s a process, but right now with the way we played last time, we should do really well (tonight).” Robi Garcia See HURRICANES, Page 3B See DOLPHINS, Page 3B PREP JV FOOTBALL: KEY WEST 16, KEYS GATE 0 Undermanned, inexperienced Conchs JV dethrones Knights BY RON COOKE Citizen Staff FLORIDA CITY – A very basic Key West High junior varsity football team made the trip to Keys Gate on Wednesday afternoon with just enough players to field a team — and no proven quarterback — yet managed to come away with a 16-0 shutout over the Knights. With quarterbacks Carson Hughes and Michael Cleaver both sidelined with injuries, sophomore Chris Brown stepped up to take the QB job and did well, according to Conchs JV coach J.P. Garcia. “We didn’t have a quarterback and were contemplating canceling the game with only 14 kids. But their AD begged us to come so we got Chris Brown to quarterback. It was pretty tough because KE YS NE W S.C OM WIN LY WEEK !!! ES PRIZ everybody had to play both ways, plus kickoffs and punts,” said Garcia. “Chris did it all — he kicked it, ran it, caught it Brown and threw it.” Garcia said they simplified the offense using a spread formation so Brown did not have to go under center. “We were able Deralus to run the triple option out of the shotgun as well. Unbelievable job,” the coach said about the team that almost wasn’t. “The defense bent a little but did not break. We held them to zero points and, I believe, only two first downs.” Key West took an early 8-0 lead. Late in the game, the Knights had the Conchs pinned back on their own 1-yard line with fourth and 29, but a gutsy Archer call by the coach gave the Conchs a little breathing room. “Coach Garcia went for it, not the smartest thing to do. But we got a 99yard touchdown,” Wynn said Garcia. “That put the icing on the cake.” This win, coupled with the 620 trouncing of Cardinal Gibbons last week, gives the small, but mighty, JV a 3-1 record. “Jadael Deralus did a phenomenal job on both sides of the ball.

Ty Torres was an animal on defense. They had two people on him and they could not block him,” Garcia said. “To tell you the truth, our defensive backs Damien Alvarez, Neil Kennedy and Abrian Wynn played a phenomenal game.” The Conchs were scheduled for three to four more JV games, but with the varsity starting conference play, some of the players will be elevated. “I know for sure Coral Shores is coming to town and that’s probably going to be our last JV game,” said Garcia. “That’s pretty good, six games for the JV considering over the years we’ve had two to three games. “They played their hearts out, it was an all-round good game.” [email protected] This week in the Keys 396233 2B THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2014 SPORTS: Scoreboard SPREADS GLANTZ-CULVER LINE Major League Baseball National League FAVORITE LINE UNDERDOG Los Angeles -280 at Chicago at Pittsburgh -120 Milwaukee Washington -145 at Miami at Atlanta -155 New York at Colorado -135 Arizona at St. Louis -230 Cincinnati San Francisco -130 at San Diego American League at New York -140 Toronto at Baltimore -180 Boston at Tampa Bay -120 Chicago at Minnesota -135 Cleveland at Kansas City -115 Detroit Seattle -140 at Houston at Los Angeles -250 Texas Interleague at Oakland -280 Philadelphia LINE +240 +110 +135 +145 +125 +210 +120 +130 +170 +110 +125 +105 +130 +220 +240 NCAA Football Tonight FAVORITE OPEN TODAY O/U UNDERDOG at South Florida 4 2 (451⁄2) UConn Tomorrow 1 at Missouri 15 13 2⁄ (71) Indiana 1 27 (471⁄2) UMass at Penn St. 28 2⁄ 1 1 9 2⁄ (60) at Akron Marshall 12 2⁄ 1 1 7 (46 ⁄2) Iowa at Pittsburgh 4 2⁄ 1 Ball St. at Toledo 8 14 (60 ⁄2) 1 1 1 (55 ⁄2) Maryland at Syracuse 1 2⁄ at Ohio 13 14 (55) Idaho 1 312⁄ (461⁄2) Cent.

AChapman, Cincinnati, 33 ON THE WATER Upcoming Keys’ fishing tournaments No matter what the season, there’s always something to fish for in the waters surrounding the Florida Keys and Key West. The calendar here lists select tournament highlights. A comprehensive schedule of Keys angling challenges can be found at www.fla-keys.com/fishing. Through Nov. 30: Key West Fishing Tournament in Key West. More than 40 species of fish are targeted during these months with divisions for men, women, junior anglers (ages 10 to 14) and pee wees (under 10 years old). The Key West Fishing Tournament strongly encourages the release of game fish. All participating anglers receive certificates noting their catches and qualify for a variety of prizes. Call Rob Harris at 305587-6718, or Doris at 305295-6601, or send an email to [email protected]. Through Sept. 21: Marathon International Bonefish Tournament in Marathon. For more than 50 years, this challenge awards individual and team champions scoring the largest bonefish and permit, the top anglers in fly and grand slam divisions (for the top spin or fly angler who releases the largest bonefish, permit and tarpon “slam”), as well as the tonguein-cheek “wet pants” champion titles for anglers wading from All Aboard: If you have an outstanding catch or fishing news to report: shore. The event is one of the few tournaments where anglers can fish without a professional guide. Notable and celebrity participants have included crooner Perry Como during the early 1960s, former U.S. Rep. Dante Fascell, Broadway actor David Wayne, and Heublein Inc. magnate John Martin of A-1 Sauce fame. Call 305-304-8682, or send an email to bnbfishing@ comcast.net. Sept. 19-21: Herman Lucerne Memorial Tournament in Islamorada. Named after the man known affectionately as “Mr. Everglades,” fishing is set against the backdrop of Everglades National Park, challenging anglers who seek the hard-to-reach yet fruitful fishing areas that Lucerne favored. Lucerne spent nearly 40 years exploring the backcountry’s labyrinth of canals, water trails and mangrove mazes, earning the affectionate moniker. The tournament distinguishes the overall grand champion as an individual angler who catches at least four of the seven eligible species — black drum, bonefish, redfish, snook, snapper, tarpon and sea trout. Sept. 26-28: 14th annual Take Stock in Children Backcountry Challenge in Key Largo. For philanthropic anglers, this popular annual gathering proffers an impor• • • • Oct. 3-4: Seventh annual Publix Mad Dog Mandich Fishing Classic in Islamorada.

The second-place team is to receive $1,000 and a trophy, and $500 and a trophy apiece are to be awarded to the anglers who catch the heaviest of each of the target species. Additional trophies await the top female and junior anglers as well those catching the top grouper and snapper. A portion of the proceeds are to benefit Mariners Hospital Oncology Services.

NFL Police: Cardinals RB Dwyer head-butted wife BY JACQUES BILLEAUD The Associated Press PHOENIX — Arizona Cardinals running back Jonathan Dwyer head-butted his wife and broke her nose after she refused his sexual advances, and punched her in the face the next day, police said Thursday. The details surfaced in a law enforcement report a day after Dwyer was arrested on aggravated assault charges and deactivated from all team activities after he was taken into custody at the Cardinals’ headquarters in Tempe. He spent a night in jail and made a brief court appearance before being released on a $25,000 bond early Thursday. The arrest came at a time when the NFL and its commissioner are under fire over a series of violent off-the-field encounters involving some marquee players, including Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson and Greg Hardy. The NFL has said the Dwyer case will be reviewed under the league’s personalDwyer conduct policy. On Thursday, the Cardinals placed Dwyer on the reserve/non-football illness list. A person with knowledge of the situation said Dwyer was undergoing mental evaluation because of mentions of suicide referred to in police documents. The person asked to remain anonymous because the team had not made the reason for the illness designation public. Because of the designation, Dwyer can’t play for the Cardinals again this season. 3B THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2014 SPORTS NHL GOLF MLB GOLF Wild sign Darcy Kuemper Woods might just coach himself ‘Home of Golf’ admits women MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Wild have signed goalie Darcy Kuemper to a twoyear contract. The Wild finally secured Kuemper on Thursday, one day after starting goalie Josh Harding broke his right foot. The injury helped motivate the Wild to get a deal done with Kuemper, who went 12-8-4 with a 2.43 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage in 26 games last season. The 24-year-old Kuemper was locked in negotiations with the Wild all summer, with the sides unable to come to agreement and training camp set to begin. JUPITER — The next swing coach for Tiger Woods might be Tiger Woods. Woods posted a blog on his website Thursday saying there was no “hard-andset” rule on finding a new swing coach. He parted way with Sean Foley last month after two years. Woods only completed 25 rounds this year because of a back injury that required surgery. He is not playing until the Hero World Challenge in December. He says he needs to get healthy before he figures out where to go with his game. He says he is keeping his options “very, very open.” Woods says he has bounced some ideas off Notah Begay, a former teammate at Stanford and a longtime friend. He says they have discussed what direction Woods should go with his game. The Royal and Ancient Golf Club at St. Andrews is no longer just for men. The spiritual “Home of Golf” became the latest club to end years of male-only exclusivity on Thursday when its members voted overwhelmingly in favor of inviting women to join. The vote was effective immediately. “I can confirm that The Royal & Ancient Golf of St. Andrews is now a mixed membership club,” R&A secretary Peter Dawson said in a brief statement he read just outside the clubhouse at the Old Course. Dawson said more than three-quarters of the club’s 2,500 members worldwide voted, with 85 percent in favor. ALAN DIAZ/The Associated Press Washington Nationals third baseman Anthony Rendon (6) prepares to score as Miami Marlins catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia (39) waits for the throw in the fifth inning of a baseball game on Thursday in Miami. Rendon scored on a double by Jayson Werth. The Nationals won, 6—2. COLLEGE FOOTBALL GOLF CAPSULES Rebuilding UConn, USF meet in AAC opener Stacy Lewis, Mi Jung Hur share LPGA lead Things to watch as the Huskies and Bulls BY FRED GOODALL The Associated Press TAMPA — Willie Taggart has heard enough about how South Florida was once ranked No. 2 in the country. The way the second-year coach sees it: If he’s going to succeed in turning the school’s struggling football team around, the Bulls will have to achieve something they couldn’t while establishing themselves as one of the fastest growing programs in the country — win a conference championship. “I think that’s very important in order for us to get where we want to go,” Taggart said, looking ahead to tonight’s American Athletic Conference opener against another rebuilding team, Connecticut. “You hear a lot about No. 2, No. 2, No. 2. That’s not fair to our guys right now to compare them to No. 2. We’re not that team right now,” the coach added. “We’re trying to build that foundation and get it back to that.” USF (1-2) launched its program from scratch less than 20 years ago and soared as high as second try to set a tone for the rest of the season: THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NAILBITERS: The past seven meetings between and Old Dominion the previous two weeks. the teams have been decided by seven or fewer THE OTHER DAVIS: USF’s Andre Davis is on points.

SEEKING IMPROVEMENT: Taggart is looking FIXING MISTAKES: UConn had three turnovers for improved play from sophomore quarterback and yielded eight sacks during last week’s 38-21 Mike White, whose 75-yard TD pass to Ryeshene loss to Boise State. USF was limited to 159 yards Bronson pulled the Bulls into a brief 7-7 tie last total offense in a 49-17 loss to N.C. State, a week. N.C. State scored the next 42 points and team that had struggled to beat Georgia Southern wound up outgaining USF 589 yards to 159. PRATTVILLE, Ala. — Top-ranked Stacy Lewis birdied the last three holes and five of the final six Thursday for an 8-under 64 and a share of the lead with Mi Jung Hur in the Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic. Lewis, the 2012 winner in the event dropped from the schedule last year after losing its title sponsor, had a bogey-free round on The Senator course. She has a tour-high three victories this season. Hur also had a bogey-free round. The South Korean player won her lone LPGA Tour title in 2009. South Africa’s Paula Reto had a 65, and Cydney Clanton was another stroke back along with Sweden’s Karin Sjodin and Japan’s Ayako Uehara. Former University of Alabama star Stephanie Meadow shot 68. Lexi Thompson, the 2011 winner at age 16, opened with a 70. in the Top 25 and Bowl Championship Series standings midway through the 2007 season. The Bulls, who left Conference USA for the Big East in 2005, have been in decline ever since. Despite being off to another slow start that includes losses to Maryland and North Carolina State, Taggart is optimistic about his young team’s prospects in a “very competitive” AAC that has a different look following the departure of Louisville to the Atlantic Coast Conference and Rutgers to the Big Ten. “Any one of these teams can win any given game,” the USF coach said. Dolphins Continued from Page 1A Davis said the Dolphin players were hitting extra hard in practice this week and are ready to get back on the field. They will have to do it without senior center Mark Keller, who dislocated his shoulder in Wednesday’s practice. Despite the injury, the extra week gave the rest of the Dolphins time to heal, and Davis said he thinks his team has turned the corner and is ready to play with the Golden Tornadoes. Pompano Beach defeated Miami Country Day last week, 16-12, a week after the Spartan defeated the Dolphins, 17-14. “The first couple of games were just misalignment and we missed a lot of blocks,” said Davis. “During this time off we were able to work with these guys and have enough repetition to get them where they need to be. We really did see a big improvement with the offense and defense.” In order to better prepare the play- Hurricanes Continued from Page 1A time in half by stopping for a pregame meal. The Hurricanes made the trip to the Buccaneers two seasons ago in the SFC postseason, when Benjamin went on the win the SFC championship. Holly said he reminded his players of that loss this week at practice. “A lot of those guys were freshman and sophomores the last time we played them and really they are just focused on getting one of those top seeds in the conference so we can make it The Bulls started 2-0 in league play a year ago, including a 13-10 victory over UConn, before closing their first season under Taggart on a six-game conference losing streak. “Our football team is still fragile. ... We need to continue to find as much success as we can and be as positive as we can, keep going in that direction,” Taggart said. It’s a direction UConn also wants to go under first-year coach Bob Diaco. The Huskies (1-2) have sandwiched lopsided losses to BYU and Boise State around a narrow victory over Stony Brook. While this season largely ers for both sides of the ball, Davis said the coaching staff focused exclusively on offense Tuesday and defense Wednesday. “We realized with our Keller guys being so young and so inexperienced we were better off giving a full day of practice to offense and defense,” said Davis. “We get a lot more reps for each, so it’s worked out really well for us. We really have seen a tremendous gain of confidence doing it this way.” Senior playmaker Robi Garcia is fully recovered from a knee injury and will return to the lineup tonight, but in his absence, Danny Valledares and freshman victor Coleman have stepped up. Davis said he will spread the ball to all three. “We are going to give Robi an opportunity,” said the Dolphins coach. “Obviously he’s not in football shape. ... And with him also playing defense, we are going to have to take it easy with him. But we will slowly get him into the to the playoffs,” said Holly. “The guys know why they are going up there and what we have on the line. Benjamin has a very disciplined-style offense and they come to play week in and week out.” Adding to the excitement, Benjamin will be celebrating its homecoming. Holly said he played music and changed the tempo during practice to better prepare the Hurricanes for tonight. “They have a beautiful stadium and they pack it,” said Holly. “So I hope we are able to travel well, like the Hurricane fans usually do.” In the season opener the Hurricanes picked up their is about changing the culture of UConn’s program, the former Notre Dame defensive coordinator and assistant head coach said it is essential players also recognize the importance of conference games in establishing an identity. “This whole year is building. We can’t do anything to compromise our development. We can’t do anything to compromise our ability to get better,” Diaco said. “We need to get batter as a team every week. We need to get better as a team at the end of the season,” Diaco added. “That has to happen. That will happen.” mix of things.” Defensively, the Dolphins will be looking to fill the box tonight in hopes of slowing down the Tornadoes powerrun game as well as disrupting the passing attack. “They have a decent quarterback, but we felt if we can press the receivers on the outside, we should be able to slow it up a little bit to put some more pressure on the quarterback,” said Davis. “If we can get pressure on him, we have seen him just throw it up in the film, so we think we can get a couple of interceptions, too.” Rain could play a factor in tonight’s game once again. But either way, Davis said he hopes being at home will help the Dolphins take that next step. “Once we get that first victory it’s going to be in the bag,” said Davis. “That’s how much confidence we have once we get that first one. Everyone is excited. The fans are excited, the coaches are excited and players are excited, and we are ready to get on the field and do this.” first-ever win against a SFC North Division opponent, Coral Spring Charter. And tonight Coral Shores will have another chance to improve its conference record against a North Division foe. With the running attack still powering the Hurricanes offense, Holly said quarterback Nick Frisone, offensive coordinator Alphonso Bryant and the receiving core have spent a lot of time during and after practice trying to improve the passing game. “Nick is 10-3 as a starting quarterback and he is a leader on the field, so we are glad to have him,” said Holly. “But in the end we are going [email protected] to do what we do and they are going to do what they do, and we are going to see who does it better.” Last week, Holly said his team seemed to struggle with the early 7 p.m. start, having kicked off every home game at 7:30, before getting back into the game by halftime. Tonight the ’Canes coaches will focus the pregame on getting the players off to a fast start. “We know we are going to be in an emotional game tonight,” said Holly. “We just have to go out there and make sure we don’t have two disappointments in a row.” [email protected] Web.com Tour Championship PONTE VEDRA BEACH — Zac Blair matched the course record with a 7-under 63 to take the lead in the Web.com Tour Championship, the final event in the four-tournament Web.com Tour Finals. Blair, the 24-year-old former BYU player who needs to earn about $40,000 this week to earn a PGA Tour card, had a bogey-free round on TPC Sawgrass’ Dye’s Valley Course. Blair missed the cuts in the first three events in the series limited to the top 75 players from the Web.com Tour money list and Nos. 126-200 in the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup standings.

The other players are fighting for another 25 cards based on their earnings in the series. Scott Pinckney, Derek Fathauer, Sung Joon Park, Bronson La’Cassie and Chad Collins were tied for second at 65. Wales Open NEWPORT, Wales — Dutchman Joost Luiten birdied seven of his last 10 holes for a 6-under 65 and a onestroke lead in the Wales Open, the final event before the Ryder Cup next week at Gleneagles. Belgium’s Nicolas Colsaerts had a 66 on Celtic Manor’s Twenty-Ten Course. He eagled the 575-yard 18th hole after hitting a drive 447 yards. European Ryder Cup player Lee Westwood, Jamie Donaldson, Thomas Bjorn and Stephen Gallacher are in the field. Donaldson shot 70, Bjorn 71, Westwood 73, and Gallacher 78. U.S. Senior Amateur NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. — Former George Washington basketball player Patrick Tallent won the U.S. Senior Amateur, beating Bryan Norton 2 and 1 at Big Canyon. The 61-year-old Tallent, from Vienna, Va., survived a 15-for-13 playoff Monday to advance to match play in the event for players 55 and older. He was the runnerup in 2010. Tallent took a 4-up lead with a birdie win on the par4 ninth, but Norton, a 55-year-old reinstated amateur from Overland Park, Kansas, won Nos. 11, 12 and 14 to cut it to a hole. Tallent rebounded to take the par-3 15th with a birdie, and matched Norton with a bogey on the par-5 16th and a birdie on the par-3 17th — holing a 30footer — to close out the match. At No. 60, Tallent is the worst-seeded player to win since the since the USGA began seeding players based on qualifying scores in 1992. Bill Shean was No. 58 when he won in 2000. U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur DEAL, N.J. — Joan Higgins won the U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur at Hollywood Golf Club, hitting every fairway in regulation in a 1-up victory over Canada’s Judith Kyrinis.

Higgins took the lead with a par on the par-5 16th, matched Kyrinis with a bogey on the par-3 17th and a par — holing an 8-foot putt — on the par-4 18th. The 50-year-old Kyrinis is a registered nurse in Toronto. 4B THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2014 LOCAL SPORTS KEY WEST COED SOFTBALL LEAGUE The Porch benches Mr. Z’s big dogs with 18-hit night COMPILED BY RON COOKE Citizen Staff RON COOKE/The Citizen Michelle Citon gets her glove up for this hard throw to first base for The Porch. KEY WEST — It was a perfect night for Jamie Cooke of The Porch. The lefty was 4for-4 at the plate and a catalyst for her team’s 9-4 triumph over Mr. Z’s in Key West Coed Softball League play at Pepe Hernandez Field. Mr. Z’s grabbed a 1-0 first inning lead, but The Porch rallied for seven in both the third and fourth frames to seal the win. Eddie Griffiths drove in four runs on a triple and a pair of base hits. Vic Cane, Michelle Citon, Janessa Barrios and Brandi Gonzalez each slugged a pair of singles. J.W. Cooke legged out an inside-the-park homer. Clinton Storr doubled, and Laura Richardson added a base hit. Raiko Caridad led Mr. Z’s with an in-the-park homer, double and base hit. Joel Rivero also legged out a homer and singled.

PREP 8-MAN FOOTBALL Eagles still searching for first victory BY J.W. COOKE Citizen Staff ISLAMORADA – The Island Christian School is still searching for its first victory in eight-sided football, but coach Jason Harrison said the team is headed in the right direction after a 36-6 loss to Westwood Christian in the Eagles’ final home game of the season. Justin Craven connected with David Calderwood for a fourthquarter touchdown pass for the lone Eagles score. Island Christian will now be on the road for the next three games, before beginning the playoffs, which the Eagles will take part in with only four teams in the league. “Because it’s such a small league every team will make the playoffs,” said Harrison. “We just have to keep working.” Despite a third lopsided loss, Harrison said he is continuing to focus on the positives before the next game Friday at Redland Christian. [email protected] Photos by ERIC BASS/The Citizen Above, ICS Eagles quarterback Justice Craven (14) makes the corner to pick up big yardage against Westwood. Below, the Eagles Jeremy Dorn (21) battles for a pass. ERIC BASS/The Citizen Island Christian School first year head coach Jason Harrison instructs his players during a timeout. He has been working hard to build a solid eight-man program. Conchs Continued from Page 1B seasons. “He won’t be able to carry the load, but he will get his reps. I think it’s going to be more of a feel thing to see how he is doing. We don’t want to wear him down, so it’s going to be pretty much up to him to see how he is doing.” The full complement of weapons will help the Conchs’ attack that has scorched its opponents for 104 points in three games, including the preseason. “We always try to play our game,” said Hughes. “It just depends on what they are trying to take away from us. Then we will do something else. We know they can’t take everything away.” Hughes said that North Broward’s size is similar to University, but added that the Eagles are not as explo- Photos by RON COOKE/The Citizen Left, Key West quarterback Andrew Freeman (2) hands the ball to running back Donnovan Mompoint (79) on Wednesday afternoon in practice.

Key West’s defense will get its first big test of the season. sive as the team the Conchs beat two weeks ago. The Conchs have more interceptions in two games this season (four) than all of last season (three). The Conchs’ coaching staff is confident that the secondary, led by Bubba Marius with two interceptions, can shut down the Eagles big-play receiver, 6-foot, 4-inch CJ Riley. North Broward Prep runs the wing-T, which Key West has not seen this season. Hughes said it will be up to the defense to maintain its assignments in order to win. “It requires a little more discipline,” said Hughes. “They are going to want to do a lot of counters and we have to stay in our gaps.” Tonight’s game is the first meeting between the conference opponents, but the last time the two schools were on the same playing field, the Eagles eliminated the Conchs from the baseball state quarterfinals. Hughes said that fact has not been lost on the Conchs. “I feel if we play our game we will give them a handful,” said Hughes. “I like our matchup with speed. Again it comes down to turnovers, but any time you can run the ball well and play defense, you are going to come out ahead. I think we have been doing those two things really well.” [email protected] KEYSWIDE CLASSIFIED THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2014 NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS CANCELLATIONS 292-7777 Mon-Fri 8AM - 5PM • Proven to Work for Over 125 Years 000 ANNOUNCEMENTS 300 MERCHANDISE 400 RENTALS 010....................................... .......Public Notices 040....................................... ..............Personals 050.................................................Lost & Found 060............ .......................................Pets Found 305................... ............ .............................Pets 310.......................,............. ........Sporting Goods 315........................................................Bicycles 320...........................................Household Goods 321......................................................
