Beware of new
four-way stops
BOB CARE/The Associated Press
Inside a sea pen, Marine Mammal Conservancy staff and community volunteers on Friday buoy four of the seven pilot whales that survived stranding themselves in the shallows off Blimp Road on Cudjoe Key Thursday night. Thirteen whales died.
KEY WEST: Motorists
should heed two new fourway stops the city will institute on Virginia Street next
week.
Beginning Wednesday, the
intersections of Virginia and
Watson streets and Virginia
and Grinnell streets, at the
old fire station, will be fourway stops.
The new stops are expected to improve public safety
at dangerous intersections
where the line of sight is limited.
CUDJOE KEY
Volunteers, gear,
food needed to
care for survivors
BY TIMOTHY O’HARA
Citizen Staff
Marine mammal rescuers are seeking
donations of wet suits, aqua socks and
meals for volunteers who are expected to
tend to seven beached pilot whales over
the days to come.
More than 100 community members
answered a call for volunteers Thursday
night after 20 whales beached themselves in the shallows off Blimp Road on
Cudjoe Key.
As with any long-term marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation operation
in which care is provided around the
clock, organizers will rely heavily on volunteers to help care for the animals. The
nonprofit Marine Mammal Conservancy
in Key Largo, which is overseeing the
operation, is continuing to ask for volunteers, who typically are in the water for
four-hour shifts.

Robert
Lingenfelser thanks the community for
its support so far.

TODAY IN KEYS HISTORY
“Congratulations to the person
who reached their 100th comment
in the Citizens’ Voice. Thank you for
creative, positive ramblings. I, for
one, have enjoyed your comments
and the journey.”
“There aren’t enough cops to
stop tourists from walking Duval
Street with drinks in their hands.
And as long as they aren’t drunk,
why does it matter? The city should
be worried about some homeless
person who has been arrested
for the same thing contacting the
American Civil Liberties Union.”
“Let me get this straight. In an
effort to reduce disorderly conduct
and public intoxication on Duval
Street, the police would rather
you rapidly pound down alcoholic
beverages before leaving an establishment versus allowing you to
casually sip it as you leisurely stroll
around downtown. This doesn’t
make too much sense to me.”
“Regarding Pritam Singh: I like
this guy. He presented to the
commission and community a
rendering of what his project would
look like. Before going any further
with the politics, he wants to walk
the site with potential neighbors.
If they don’t want it, he’ll go no
further. How refreshing. Also, I need
a job!”
“Key West is on water restrictions
and lacking affordable housing but
we are going to build a hotel which
will consume water and create lowpaying jobs? What is wrong with
this picture?”
“Another stupid parking decision.
So when all the residents with their
special permits drive to their jobs
(and a lot do) their spaces are
reserved for them when they come
home and no one else can use
them during the day. Those people
driving in from, say, Stock Island to
their jobs in town are out of luck!”
“Locals probably know there are
bike lanes on White Street. Visiting
motorists might never guess it,
because the lane markings are
faded almost to the point of invisibility. Dangerous? Yep.”
“I love the new parking plan test
and, yes, I live in Old Town. But
perhaps only one decal should be
issued per household. I would hate
to see multiple decals issued to a
home filled with roommates. Also,
does this mean that a home under
construction for months on end
will not be able to have multiple
trucks taking up residential parking? Yeah!”
“Outlawing three-wheelers is
absurd! I suffered a brain injury
and do not have the balance that
a conventional bike requires. My
three-wheeler is my only personal
mode of transportation, which
includes grocery shopping.”
“Really? Kids’ baseball, front
page news? There’s nothing more
important going on in the world?
Give me a break.”
“Oh, please, not another Pritam
Singh eyesore.”

Woman steals purse,
buries it in the woods
CITIZEN STAFF
RAMROD KEY — A woman
accused of stealing a purse
from a house and then burying it in a wooded area was
arrested Wednesday.
Jessica Calitri, 25, of Big Pine
Key, was charged with theft and
burglary.
The victims told a Monroe
County Sheriff’s Office deputy
that someone
had walked
into
their
unlocked
West Indies
Drive house
on Tuesday
and taken a
Calitri
purse from
the kitchen table, according to
a Sheriff’s Office press release.
Deputies said they used sur-
veillance footage captured at
the house to identify Calitri. A
neighbor reportedly saw someone fitting Calitri’s description
handing out fliers in the area
promoting a car wash at a bar
to be held Wednesday. Deputies
reportedly found Calitri there,
and she allegedly admitted to
taking the purse and burying
it near the end of Key Deer
Boulevard.
The release did not
say why she buried it.
Calitri was taken to Monroe
County Detention Center.
Information in the Crime
Report is obtained from reports
provided by area law enforcement agencies.
If you have information that
could help solve a crime in the
Keys, call Crime Stoppers, (800)

Animal Farm open Sun.
State parks half-off for mom’s day
Interfaith event planned for Tues.
The Sheriff’s Animal Farm will
be open from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday.
Bring the family to come visit
the animals there, including
horses, a cow, pigs, goats, bunnies, alligators, tropical birds,
a Kinkajou, a family of sloths,
an emu, a family of Patagonian

snakes and many more.
It’s free, though donations to
help with food and upkeep are
welcome.
The farm is just off College
Road, under the Sheriff’s Office
Headquarters complex. Groups
may schedule special tours at the
farm by calling Farmer Jeanne
Selander at 305-293-7300.
Florida State Parks will offer 50 percent off

Attendance policy tabled due to absences
BY MANDY MILES
Citizen Staff
The absence of four voting
members forced the Truman
Waterfront Advisory Board
to cancel its meeting Friday,
when it had planned to discuss,
among other things, developing
an attendance policy.
All seven members have been
absent at one time or another
since the board’s inception in
2009. Ashish Soni has missed
14 meetings, Jerry Curtis has
missed six, Edward Gartenmayer
has missed five since November,
Owen Trepanier and Al Sullivan
have missed four each, and Jim

papers, tabloids and online
forums, including the New
York Daily News and the Daily
Mail in England.
“I guess it’s kind of cool being
famous a little bit and making history a little bit,” Gregory
said.
What made the incident
such a headline-grabber was
the possible novelty of it: There
never has been a recorded crocodile attack on a human in the
history of the state. Unlike their
cousins in Africa and Australia,
the endangered American
crocodile is a shy, reclusive
and docile creature and “conflicts between crocodiles and
humans are still very rare,”
according to a press release
the Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission
(FWC) released late Thursday
to announce it is investigating
the incident.
“With limited information
at hand, the FWC cannot conclude what animal the kayakers encountered. ... The FWC
cannot confirm what caused
the kayak to overturn, but
there are many animals and
things found in water that can
cause scratches and wounds to
people,” the press release says.
“The FWC suspects this may
Gilleran, who is now the chairman, and Margaret Domanski,
who is now the vice chairwoman, have missed one each. There
are four non-voting members.
Curtis and Sullivan had notified the board in advance of
their planned absence from
Friday’s meeting, but Soni
and Gartenmayer were unannounced no-shows.
Gilleran apologized to the
public for the inconvenience,
and said the board would try
to reschedule the meeting later
this month.
The Key West Commoners, a
grass-roots group that wants to
help with the waterfront devel-
opment, had planned to introduce a nonprofit group called
Projects for Public Spaces,
which would work with the chosen park designer as a facilitator and community liaison to
ensure the park represents what
it is the public wants.
The Commoners wanted
to determine a time for the
nonprofit’s representatives
to visit Key West and make a
presentation to the board, said
Commoner Christine Russell,
who said such meeting cancellations waste the time of residents
who make plans to attend.
Each city commissioner
appointed a board member:
Clayton Lopez appointed
Soni, Mark Rossi appointed
Gartenmayer to replace original board member Kurt Lewin
when he stepped down in
November, former Mayor
Morgan McPherson appointed
Curtis, Barry Gibson appointed
Trepanier, Bill Verge appointed
Sullivan, former Commissioner
Dan
Kolhage
appointed
Gilleran, and Teri Johnston
appointed Domanski.
The board typically meets the
first Friday of each month, but
has scheduled an occasional
workshop in the evening or on
a Saturday.

have been a chance occurrence
and not an overt act by whatever animal the kayakers may
have encountered.”
The couple was paddling in
Florida Bay, just outside the
canals of Sexton Cove near
Mile Marker 106, when they
said something flipped their
kayaks and injured them in the
water, but it was before dawn,
so they didn’t get a good look at
whatever it was.
The clues point to a crocodile, some say.
“Everything I’ve heard is
consistent that they canoed
over an alligator or a crocodile,
and this time of year it is more
likely to be a crocodile than an
alligator,” said Frank Mazzotti,
a University of Florida wildlife biologist who specializes in
both large reptiles.
Tavernier’s Dr. Bernard
Ginsberg, who later examined
the couple, quickly concluded it
was a reptilian attack. Mazzotti,
who has viewed pictures of their
wounds, agreed. What tips the
balance toward crocodiles over
alligators are the elements of
time and place.
Crocodiles are more likely to
be found in the waters near
Sexton Cove, which sits in close
proximity to the Crocodile
Lake National Wildlife Refuge
on North Key Largo. Alligators,
which reside mostly in freshwater, can make their way into
the salty environs of Florida
Bay, but they are more likely
to do so in the summer wet
season, when runoff makes the
bay’s water a bit more palatable
to them, Mazzotti said.
He said the couple’s descriptions sound like a typical
response from a startled crocodile or alligator. First, the
beast would have risen up as
it started to swim away, tipping the kayaks in the process.
Then, it would have remained
on alert once it saw people in
the water.
“Their reflexive behavior is to
swing their head and bite, snap
and release,” Mazzotti said.
“And that’s a defensive behavior and pretty much serves as
a warning to anything in the
area to get out of here or worse
is coming.”
The FWC press release says
“wild animals instinctively flee
from an unexpected or perceived threat or encounter with
a human.”
The couple said a frenzy ensued after the kayaks
flipped.
“I was trying to swim back
to the boat,” said Poulson, 20,
who lives in Islamorada. “I felt
a nudge. When I got back in
the boat, I was like, ‘What was
that?’ I was halfway up the
canal when it started to hurt.”
Poulson had several scratches on her torso and a gash and
heavy bruising under her thigh.
Gregory, 23, of Key Largo, was
bitten on his leg.
“The whole time this was
happening we were in shock,”
he said. “I thought it was a
manatee and I didn’t know it
was a crocodile until we got
back there and saw the scratches on our legs.”
The FWC said complaints
about crocodiles have increased
as the threatened species’s
population has grown, from
fewer than 300 in 1975 to more
than 1,500 adults today.
“Because crocodiles get
large, people must use caution
when near them or recreating
in areas where they are found,”
the press release says.
It is unlikely the couple’s
incident will be recorded as a
documented crocodile attack,
Mazzotti said, since no one
saw the offending creature and
the bite marks are likely not
extensive enough to differentiate between an alligator and
crocodile.
The couple’s marks indicate
one or two teeth, but it would
take a complete outline of the
beast’s jawline to be conclusive.
For his part, Gregory is drawing some positives from the
attack. He said he’s long been
known to his friends as “croc”
due to his penchant for catching — with his bare hands —
everything from birds to sharks
to smaller fish.
In fact, he dreams of having
his own TV show, Steve Irwinlike, where he can use those
skills.
The attack, he said, was a
fluke that shouldn’t keep him
or others off the water. Then
again, it might have been payback from all those creatures
he’s gotten the best of with
those bare hands of his.
“My friends are saying it’s
karma,” Gregory said.

year.
Avael has started campaigning by surveying residents in
the New Town district that
includes parts of Flagler,
Patterson and Seidenberg
avenues, along with Johnson
and Laird streets and Riviera
Canal.
“I’ve gotten some positive
responses, and I think I can
help my friends on the dais to
make the city a better place,”
he said, adding that he has not
outlined a specific platform
other than improvement and
the need for a strategic plan.
“We haven’t had any direction
since 2005; no goals or objectives or strategic plan.”
Avael said he worked as city
manager for 11 years and four
months, until fall 2007.
The City Commission at the
time declined to renew Avael’s
employment contract and
began a search for a new city
manager. Avael submitted his
name for consideration, but
withdrew it when then-mayor
Morgan McPherson and some
commissioners said they did
not want him as a candidate.
Avael lists as his accomplishments the city’s acquisition of Truman Waterfront and
Poinciana Plaza from the Navy
and the establishment of the
ambassadors program.
“I also initiated the accreditation process and the creation
of a strategic plan, but that was
eventually dropped,” he said,
commending Commissioner
Teri Johnston for championing the need for a strategic
plan and establishing a community committee to draft it.
“Folks have been telling me,
‘Julio, you were very decisive.
We knew how you felt about
things,’” he said, adding that
“quite a few directors within
the city staff have asked me
to run.”
Avael’s tenure as city manager was not without controversy, and he was criticized
for approving significant pay
raises, just weeks before he left
office, for a handful of employees, including then-Assistant
City Manager John Jones, former Police Chief Bill Mauldin,
former Transportation Director Myra Wittenberg and
Director of Community Services Greg Veliz.
“I was off for three months
for a knee replacement and
had a modified, self-directed
team to take my place and
run the city,” he said. “They
worked hard and did a damn
good job in my absence.”
When asked whether his
election would signify to some
a return to a “Bubba” government fraught with political
favors, Avael said, “I never
considered myself a part of a
Bubba government, regardless
of what anyone felt. I worked
for seven commissioners. And
if elected, I understand that I
will be one of seven, working
with the others.”
Avael also touted his institutional memory as a benefit to
the commission, and said he
has been keeping abreast of
city issues through his weekly
radio show “Point to Point”
on KONK AM, which he relinquished when he announced
his candidacy.
Since 2007, Avael has been
working as a consultant for
the Non-Violence Project,
a nonprofit organization in
Miami, and he started his
own consulting firm, Avael &
Associates.

Thanks to the Seabees;
you will be missed
Q
uite apart from its
military missions,
the detachment of
U.S. Navy Seabees assigned to
Naval Air Station Key West has
long been a valuable community asset here in the Florida
Keys.
Unfortunately, the detachment is now in the process
of closing up shop, no doubt
a consequence of tightening budgets in U.S. military
resources. But that does not
mean we have seen the last of
them.
Seabees will remain
an important element of
the military’s Southern
Command headquartered in
Miami, and will be available
for deployment wherever
needed. Also, some of the
local personnel likely will
be transferred to other tasks
at NAS Key West and will
remain here.
We are prompted, nevertheless, to take occasion to say
thanks to the Seabees for all
they have done through the
years to make our island paradise so livable.
We begin our tribute by
acknowledging how their contributions to the community
have gone largely unnoticed
Editorial
because so often they have
participated in fundraising
and other charitable activities
as volunteers.
Of course, the Seabees also
show up in force when their
formidable skills in construction work and maintenance
are so often and so willingly
made available for a wide
range of urgent tasks, including such things as hurricane
cleanups, rebuilding and
repairing community landmarks and helping nonprofits
construct or renovate their
facilities.
The Navy’s Seabees were
created within days of the
Japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor in December 1941 and
have retained responsibility as
a primary construction force
worldwide.
It is with considerable
disappointment — but with
sincere thanks — that we say
goodbye, wishing smooth sailing to the Seabees and their
families who soon will be billeted elsewhere to carry on
their important duties for our
country.

Another bill deserving of veto
H
ouse and Senate bills
that would limit doctors’ questions about guns
in patients’ homes made it
through the Legislature, but
only after undergoing surgery
to remove the most offensive
portions. It doesn’t matter.
Florida lawmakers should
have let this idea die on the
operating-room table.
For a while, it looked as if
the legislation would flatly
prohibit doctors from asking
patients whether they have
guns in their homes and how
they’re stored. There was also
the threat of heavy fines.
The prohibition stands
— but a doctor will be allowed
to ask about guns if he’s
concerned for the safety of a
patient or others at home.
Noting the presence of
firearms in a patient’s record
is also prohibited — unless
it’s deemed relevant to the
patient’s care.
You’ll notice that a lot of ifs,
ands and buts crept into the
House and Senate bills. The
fines were removed, too.
Jim Waldman of Coconut
Creek told The Associated
Press: “The fact that it’s better
than it was doesn’t make it
good. It’s still an infringement
on medical care.”
That’s exactly right. This
legislation gives physicians
yet another reason to look
over their shoulders as they
talk with patients, because Big
Brother in Tallahassee will be
watching. It deserves a veto.

Nonprofits serving homeless help restore dignity

Guest Columnist
L
ike so many before
her, Raquel crossed the
Straits of Florida in a
makeshift boat. Clutching her
3-year-old son, she fought
back waves of nausea as the
seas crashed against the rusted 55-gallon drums. The boy’s
father hovered protectively
over both of them, hoping the
darkness would conceal the
terror in his eyes. Childhood
sweethearts, they were abandoning their homeland of
Cuba in the hope of making a
better life for their son.
Life in America was difficult from the onset, however,
and the young couple soon
found themselves living out
of their car as they struggled
to make ends meet. That’s
when they ended up at the
Star of the Sea Outreach
Mission looking for food.
Speaking very little English,
Raquel nevertheless insisted
on helping us whenever she
received anything.
I soon began to hear of this
little dynamo with her Cuban
mop, keeping our floors and
bathrooms sparkling clean.
As a food pantry, the place
can get quite messy and we
are required by the Health
Department to maintain
certain standards. Raquel
cleaned several times a day,
and we soon brought her on
as our second employee. She
initially refused any compensation — even the nominal
$50 a week that we could
afford in the beginning — but
now, five years later,
we are able to pay
her a livable wage.
Her husband
works very hard as
a fisherman, and
they now have a nice
apartment. She just
gave birth to a little sister for
her son. Raquel is very bright,
has taught herself English
over the past few years, and
is invaluable to us as a bilingual staff member. What a
gift it has been to watch this
young family assimilate into
productive members of our
community!
Don had been homeless for
eight years. A gentle giant of
a man, he came to us by way
of another local nonprofit,
Helpline, where he had spent
the past year sleeping on the
floor each night and answering their 24-hour emergency
hotline. Another one who
insisted on giving back for
what he received, Don had
been helping us on and off
since we opened our doors
six years ago.
Our food recovery program
had begun to overwhelm our
single driver last year, and
someone suggested that Don
might be a good candidate
for another driver. I was
astounded to find that not
only had he still maintained a
driver’s license over all these
years of homelessness, but
he had an excellent driving
record as well! He came on
board with us last year and
used his first paycheck as the
deposit on a room in a house
right down the street from
the mission. The bed
in that little room was
the first that he had
slept on in over eight
years. He has since
logged thousands of
safe driving miles for
us and works at least
60 hours a week — while
only being paid for 20. He
has known all along that we
cannot afford to pay him anything more than that. Those
extra 40 hours are his way of
giving back, and he wouldn’t
have it any other way.
Don also brought us Andy,
another homeless man. A
jack of all trades, Andy has
had many periods of homelessness over the past 15
years, with the state of the
construction industry pretty
much determining whether
or not he had a roof over his
head. This most recent economic downturn has found
him living in the mangroves
for the past six months.
Andy struggles with alcohol, is subject to seizures
from a head injury, and lost
his driving privileges some
time ago. Nevertheless, he
functions as Don’s wingman,
helping load and unload
many tons of furniture and
food. A very competent contractor, he has also proven
invaluable in helping maintain and improve our facility.
Some work is finally coming
his way, and while we were
never able to pay him for his
many months of service, we
were able to pay the deposit
and first month’s rent on a
nice trailer that he is fixing
up. At the same time, Don’s
landlord needed the room
back, and Don has moved
into the trailer with Andy.
With the two of them splitting
the rent, it’s much less likely
that either will ever be homeless again.
The cycle continues with
Don’s latest protégé, Gary.
Gary now spends his days
helping us, rather than aimlessly walking the streets of
Key West waiting for KOTS
to open each night. With his
physical and mental disabilities, life will always be a
struggle for Gary, but we will
offer him the same hand up
we offered Andy.
Stories such as these happen every day in this town.
Nonprofits that are all too
often seen as the cause of
our homeless population are
in reality in the business of
homeless prevention. The
beds provided by Florida Keys
Outreach Coalition, Samuel’s
House, the Domestic Abuse
Shelter and Children’s Shelter
don’t bring these people to
Key West any more than does
the food that we distribute.
What we do bring to Key West
is the opportunity for these
poor souls to regain their
basic human dignity, and to
have what so many of us take
for granted — a roof over
their heads and food in their
stomachs.

ing sure that we were safe as
we embarked on our journey
toward self-acceptance and
self-actualization.
That is the promise of motherhood — unconditional love
for your children, helping
them grow and mature, picking them up when they fall,
showing them the difference
between right and wrong, protecting them from harm and
preparing them for the world
outside the comforts of home.
In turn, children promise to
honor their mom and dad,
take care of them every day,
especially as they age, and love
them unconditionally.
I have been very lucky in my
life to have many wonderful
surrogate moms — my Aunt
Mayda, my grandmothers
Cristina and Lola, a guidance counselor in high school
named Mrs. Murphy, and in my
later years, my mother-in-law,
Nina. All these women have
shown me the power of love
and have been role models of
strong women who can achieve
anything. My interactions with
them have framed my view of
women as equals in every way.
My sisters, Margie and Reggie,
have also served as strong
influences as I have watched
them grow as parents with their
children, and recently as grandmothers themselves.
Unfortunately, not all children have been as lucky. The
headlines and blogs are filled
with stories of children who
have come out of the closet to
their families and have been
rejected, shunned, and, in
some cases, disowned. How
can a mother or father turn
their back on their child and
disown them? How does a
child, faced with this most
intimate rejection, survive and
grow to be a stable and productive adult?
The answer can be found
in the power of love. When a
young man or woman struggling with his or her sexuality includes you in this very
special part of their life, love
them, hug them, and let them
know that they are safe. Gay
and lesbian teenagers struggle
with the same issues that all
teenagers do, and have the
added burdens associated with
being different from many of
their peers.
If you are lucky enough as a
parent to have your child come
out to you, your reaction can literally save their life. If you reject
them, the self-hatred may build
to a point of dire consequences
including suicide. If you show
them the power of love and
acceptance, you will most certainly make a difference in their
life and help them on their journey to self-acceptance.
Happy Mother’s Day to all
the fabulous moms out there.

Colombia free trade this year?
Break in case of missing woman
Anthony’s parents allowed at trial
The U.S. Commerce Undersecretary
for International Trade says he is confident the Colombian Free Trade
Agreement can happen this year.
Under Secretary Frank Sanchez told
The Associated Press Friday during a
trip to Miami that the Obama administration is pleased with the recent steps
the Colombian government has taken to
address its concerns over the high rates
of violence involving labor leaders and
union members.
Sanchez was in Florida to discuss the
proposed agreement with local businesses and to tour Port Everglades,
which is participating in the president’s
National Export Initiative to help create
new jobs and double U.S. exports over
the next five years.
Authorities in upstate New York say
they have arrested a former prison guard
whose police-recruit girlfriend disappeared in Florida in March.
State police arrested 47-year-old David
Perry, of Elmira, late Thursday night and
charged him with insurance fraud and
grand larceny.
Trooper Mark O’Donnell says Perry is
accused of fabricating an injury while
working in the Elmira jail in 2003.
Authorities in Indian Rocks Beach,
Fla., have been seeking to question Perry
about the disappearance of 35-yearold Kelly Rothwell, a police academy
recruit.
The two were living in Rothwell’s
condo when she disappeared. Perry
moved back to Elmira soon after.
The judge in the Casey Anthony murder
trial has ruled that Anthony’s parents will
be allowed in the courtroom throughout
the trial despite being both defense and
prosecution witnesses.
Chief Judge Belvin Perry said that the
defense did not meet its burden in challenging a motion by George and Cindy
Anthony to view the proceedings, and that
their presence wouldn’t infringe on Casey
Anthony’s right to a fair trial.
Sequestration is possible for other witnesses in the trial. It is set to begin Monday
with jury selection at a yet to be disclosed
location. The defense withdrew a motion
objecting to jury selection location. The
actual trial will be held in Orlando.
Casey Anthony is charged with firstdegree murder of her toddler, Caylee.

No deal on immigration bill as session ends

House Republicans huddle during the winding-down session.
Final budget offers plenty
of fiscal pain to go around
BY BILL KACZOR
The Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE — Special
education teacher Hal Krantz
hasn’t had a raise in two years,
but he’ll be among 650,000 public employees whose paychecks
will be cut to help balance an
annual state budget that also
slashes spending by nearly $4
billion.
The $69.7 billion budget (SB
2000) was set for final votes in
the House and Senate late Friday
to close out Florida’s annual legislative session. Passage was virtually assured. Both chambers
have overwhelming Republican
majorities, and GOP leaders
kept their pledge not to raise
taxes although they found other
ways to balance the budget that
would go into effect July 1.
It will save more than $1 billion for the state and local governments by requiring public
employees such as Krantz to
contribute 3 percent of their
pay to the Florida Retirement
System, now fully funded by taxpayers.
“Every expense I have has
been going up, except my salary,
so it’s going to be a hardship for
me and every other teacher out
there,” said Krantz, who teaches
at Coral Springs Middle School
in Broward County.
“You’re going to have a lot of
teachers that are going to be
looking for second jobs.”
That’s assuming they still have
their first jobs.
The budget eliminates nearly
4,500 state positions, although
about 2,000 are vacant while
1,700 jobs are in prisons slated
to be privatized.
School districts also are anticipating layoffs and furloughs due
to state spending cuts.
Some private sector employees who depend on state funding, such as road builders and
nursing home workers, also may
get the ax.
There’s also fiscal pain ahead
for college and university students who will be paying higher
tuition, and many will see their
state-funded scholarships cut.
Public school classrooms
will become more crowded.
Hospitals and nursing homes
will take a reduction in Medicaid
payments. Everglades restoration spending will be cut and
funding eliminated for the
Florida Forever environmental
land-buying program.
“Although this has to be one of
the most difficult budgets in the
history of Florida, I think it’s one
that most of us can go home and
feel like it’s a workable budget,”
said Senate Budget Chairman
JD Alexander, R-Lake Wales.
Yet, lawmakers found enough
money to cut taxes by $308 million — mostly at the expense
of water management districts
— and pay for dozens of their
pet projects.
Those include college and university buildings, a rowing facility in Sarasota and a $400,000
study of House Speaker Dean
Cannon’s proposal to expand
the Florida Supreme Court. The
budget also maintains $2.28 billion in reserve funds.
Requiring teachers, state
workers and many local government employees, including
police and firefighters, to make
retirement contributions was
one of Gov. Rick Scott’s top priorities, although he had proposed bigger contributions of 5
percent.
Scott said it was only fair for
public employees to contribute,
because most workers in other
states and the private sector
must do so.
Public employee unions
opposed that move. They say
employees gave up pay raises
decades ago in exchange for full
public funding of the plan. Also,
state workers now are going into
a fifth straight year without an
across-the-board pay raise.
TALLAHASSEE — Florida legislators
headed into the waning hours of the 2011
session without an agreement on a tough
immigration bill sought by the governor
and attorney general.
As the final hours ticked away Friday,
it appeared the House was not going to
agree with a watered-down version of an
immigration measure passed Wednesday
by the Senate.
Republican Gov. Rick Scott and
Attorney General Pam Bondi both favor
stronger immigration laws similar to one
in Arizona, although tourism officials and
Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam
cautioned that a similar measure could
damage those industries.
The Senate bill doesn’t contain a
requirement that employers check new
hires against a federal database.
Scott signed an executive order in
January ordering state agencies to use EVerify to determine if current or prospective employees are legal. The House bill
also gives wider leeway to law enforcement officers in questioning individuals
about their immigration status.
The Latino group Democracia USA
opposes both bills, and its director, Jorge

Voters will decide whether
to repeal religious aid ban
BY BILL KACZOR
The Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE — Voters
will have a chance to repeal
Florida’s ban on using public funds to aid churches and
other religious organizations
by passing a ballot proposal
that received final legislative
approval Friday on a close
Senate vote.
It is one of seven proposed
state constitutional amendments lawmakers have put
on the November 2012 ballot during the annual legislative session that was ending
Friday.
Repeal advocates argued
the no-aid provision is antireligious bigotry and a threat
to existing state-funded services provided by schools,
hospitals and other entities
with religious affiliations.
Opponents called that a
scare tactic. They pointed out
the ban hasn’t stopped that
funding since it was put in
the Florida Constitution more
than a century ago.
The amendment (HJR
1471), though, would go
beyond repealing the ban. It
would add a provision to the
Constitution saying people
couldn’t be barred from par-
ticipating in public programs
because they’ve chosen to
receive those benefits from
religious organizations.
“This primarily will help our
state to help the most vulnerable in our state by working
with those organizations that
are not providing religious
services but providing human
services,” said Sen. Thad
Altman, a Viera Republican
who sponsored the measure in
the Senate.
Opponents argued that language would open the door to
state funding of questionable
groups.
“This measure would write
into the Florida Constitution
the unfettered right of individuals to direct state dollars to religious extremists
that espouse ... virulently
anti-Semitic, racist and other
extremist views,” said Senate
Democratic Leader Nan Rich
of Weston.
The final vote came on a
largely party line 26-10 roll call
in the Senate, with Republicans
in favor and all except one
Democrat, Sen. Gary Siplin of
Orlando, against. The margin
was just two votes more than
the minimum needed. The
amendment passed 81-35 in
the House.
off the task.
“Prior to our ads, the thinking was this
is a done deal,” Mursuli said. “The bill was
barreling through the Legislature.”
Hundreds of immigrants and their
supporters also flooded the Legislature
to oppose the bill, and many business
leaders also lobbied against it behind the
scenes.
Haridopolos then tapped Sen. J.D.
Alexander, chairman of the Budget
Committee, to press ahead with the bill,
saying he hoped Alexander would push
for a mandatory E-Verify requirement to
match that of the House bill.
But Joyce Tarnow of Floridians for a
Sustainable Population called the selection of Alexander to push for E-Verify disingenuous, because Alexander is a leader
in the agriculture industry, which generally opposes the program.
“Haridopolos absolutely, totally let us
down,” she said, adding, “Haridopolos
was trying to play both ends against the
middle.
“He got elected with the help from the
Tea Party people, and they’re going to
work really hard to make sure he’s not
elected” to the U.S. Senate.
Tarnow vowed her organization and
others would now turn their efforts toward
passing a federal law to make the E-verify
program mandatory.

US increases inspection posts
Obama honors assault forces
Federal authorities on Friday opened
seven new inspection booths for commercial traffic heading north to the U.S. from
Mexico, nearly doubling capacity at the
bridge that’s the busiest commercial port
on America’s southwestern border — and a
prime smuggling corridor for drug gangs.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
says the new posts will ease wait times on
Laredo’s World Trade International Bridge,
where more than 4,800 18-wheelers rumble
into American territory daily.
The $5.4 million project also bolsters
inspection of big-rigs that smugglers can cram
with cocaine, marijuana or amphetamines
hidden among regular cargo. It includes two
additional new lanes for “secondary inspection,” an area with sniffer dogs where customs agents can provide extra screening.
President Barack Obama has met
with the assault forces who carried
out the strike on Osama bin Laden
and has awarded them a presidential
citation.
The White House says the president, along with Vice President Joe
Biden, met privately with the troops
at Fort Campbell, Ky., to thank them

Obama met with the full assault force
involved in the raid in Pakistan carried
out by Navy SEALS and also with helicopter operators who got them there.
He awarded the units involved a

Businesses now hiring at fastest pace since 2006
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — American
companies are on a hiring
spree. Businesses delivered a
jolt of strength to the economy by creating 268,000 jobs in
April, the biggest monthly total
in more than five years. The
gains were solid across an array
of industries, even beleaguered
construction.
It was the third month in
a row of at least 200,000 new
jobs. The private sector has
added jobs for 14 consecutive
months. Even a slight rise in
the unemployment rate to 9
percent appears to be a quirk.
The job growth was better
than economists expected and
perhaps the strongest sign yet
that what they call a “virtuous
cycle” has taken hold: When
people spend more, corporate
earnings rise, leading to more
hiring and then more spending.
Companies have added more
than 200,000 jobs for three
months in a row.
“This was really a good
report because ultimately it is
all about jobs,” said Joel Naroff,
president of Naroff Economic
Advisors. “More and more, it is
looking as if the recovery is on
track despite the headwinds it
is facing.”
Those include higher prices
for crude oil and gas. But energy prices fell sharply earlier
this week, apparently reflect-

ing lower consumption in the
United States and a stronger
dollar. Analysts think the price
of gas may have peaked for the
summer at about $4 a gallon.
The rise in the unemployment rate, to 9 percent in April
from 8.8 percent the month,
was the first increase since
November. But it appeared to
be because of a temporary disparity in two surveys the government uses to track jobs.
Wall Street was pleased by
Friday’s report from the Labor
Department. The Dow Jones
industrials rose more than 150
points shortly after the open-
ing bell. The Dow closed up 55
points, or 0.4 percent.
Businesses added jobs in
April across the economy.
Retailers, factories, financial
companies, education, health
care and the construction
industry all reported gains.
And the government said the
job gains it reported for March
and February turned out to be
even stronger than previously
thought. Private employers
have now added jobs for 14
straight months.
Economists say companies
are paying for new hires by
starting to spend some of the
almost $2 trillion in cash that
businesses stockpiled after the
recession ended in June 2009.
Analysts have said the use of
corporate cash reserves is the
most effective way to strengthen the job market.
Once again, governments
at the federal, state and local
levels all cut jobs — 24,000 in
April. Counting those cuts, the
economy as a whole added
244,000 jobs last month. The
private-sector job gains were
the most since February 2006.
“It is a sigh of relief: Economic
momentum has not been lost,”
said Sung Won Sohn, economist
at California State University. He
said he was surprised that energy prices hadn’t scared businesses away from hiring more.
President Barack Obama,
refocusing on the economy
after a week in which the killing of Osama bin Laden had
dominated his agenda, said the
figures were a sign that “we are
regaining our footing.”
“We’ve made this progress
at a time when our economy’s

Manuel has more than 20
years of experience in investment banking, business ownership and management in
all levels of finance, including
partnerships with large development groups and marina
management, according to the
brewery proposal. A native of
St. Petersburg, Manuel keeps
his boat at A&B Marina, has
been spending time in Key
West for more than 20 years
and is a member of the Friends
of the Key West Airport.
The Waterfront Brewery proposal includes details about
the 50 or more employees
that would be hired to operate the brewery and attached
restaurant, while Shultz and
Manuel also want to explore
the possibility of installing a
rooftop lounge to provide an
unparalleled view of the harbor. They plan to recognize the
seaport’s maritime tradition,
which would be reflected in the
design and decor of the pub
and tasting room.
“From idea inception to
pouring the first beer, the
Waterfront Brewery team will
embrace the ethos that makes
Key West a great place to live
and do business: Good food,
good drinks and good people,” the proposal states. “Our
team is committed to bringing a unique venue to Key
West that will complement
and enhance the historic
setting and bring opportunities for innovation and collaboration to the community.
We look forward to bringing
forward a craft brewery and
product that will make Key
West proud.”
The duo has proposed a 20year lease in which they would
pay $21 per square foot, or 6

lower than that of other bight

and Manuel also expect to spend
$1.5 million to $2 million on
improvements to the building.
“They will submit a complete
financial plan, but have indicated that the investment will
be all equity with no financing
contingency,” Wilbarger said.
“We won’t need bank loans,”
Shultz told The Citizen Friday,
adding he was looking forward
to the presentation and excited
to hear positive public response
to the project thus far.
Much remains to be negotiated, such as the terms of the
lease, and the city’s share of necessary structural improvements.
Wilbarger added that two
other entities — Sound Wave
Productions and West Marine
— expressed an interest in the
building, but did not submit
the required financial information with their proposals.
Sound Wave envisioned an

West Marine wanted to open a

Whales

and suffering from minor abrasions from the
beaching — corralled in the sea pen erected
off the end of Blimp Road. But one was being
euthanized about 8 p.m. Friday.
The Coast Guard flew over the area Friday
afternoon but did not find any more survivors, only one dead whale, said Karrie Carnes,
spokeswoman for the Florida Keys National
Marine Sanctuary. Volunteers constructed the
50-foot-wide sea pen out of yellow boom and
plastic fencing to corral the survivors Thursday
night.
That makes 13 whales that have died in the
shallows near Tarpon Belly Key. Some carcasses had bite marks, indicating they had been
attacked by sharks. Bull sharks are known to
feed in that area.
For the next several days, volunteers will stand
in the water and buoy the surviving whales.
Trained volunteers will tube feed the whales a
mixture of water, Pedialyte and possibly antibiotics.
National Marine Fisheries Services veterinarians took blood samples and examined the surviving whales Friday to assess their health and
determine their treatment, Carnes said. Officials
were awaiting the results of the samples.
It was not known Friday evening if the Marine
Mammal Conservancy would take the survivors
to its Key Largo facility, which can accommodate as many as 15 whales but has a federal
permit to house only six, Carnes said. It remains

to be seen whether the facility will be allowed
to exceed that number, be forced to release two
healthier ones sooner, or euthanize the two
weakest ones, if they don’t die first.
Their rehabilitation could take months. In
2003, 28 whales stranded in the Content Keys off
Big Pine Key in April; the five survivors were not
released back into the wild until August.
Why whales and dolphins beach themselves
is not known. Some scientists speculate that
with certain species, an old or sick bull will
head into the shallows to keep his blowhole
above water, and the rest of the pod will follow, accidentally getting stranded, said Doug
Mader, a Marathon veterinarian who for years
has worked on stranding operations with the
Marine Mammal Conservancy. Pilot whales are
particularly social animals that move in large
pods.
Pilot whales, which are jet black or very dark
gray, live far offshore and rarely come into nearshore waters. They can range in size from 16 to
20 feet and weigh more than 1,000 pounds.

Assistant Sports Editor
KEY WEST — For the fourth
straight game this postseason, fans
packed the bleachers and standingroom areas at Rex Weech Field on
Friday night to create a blanket of red
and provide an electrifying atmosphere as the Key West High baseball
team looked to advance to the Class
CORAL GABLES — Former Memphis quarterback Ryan Williams has transferred to Miami.
Williams played in all 12 games for Memphis
last season, completing 57 percent of his
passes for 2,075 yards, 13 touchdowns and
10 interceptions as a freshman. He’s a South
Florida native and led Miramar High to a state
championship in 2009.
Miami coach Al Golden says Williams adds
“toughness, incredible work ethic and smarts
on and off the field” to the Hurricanes.

MIKE HENTZ/The Citizen
A capacity crowd at Rex Weech Field
cheers on the Conchs on Friday night.
4A regional finals against nationally
ranked Archbishop McCarthy.
Unfortunately for the home fans,
there was no post-game celebration
this time.
The Conchs hung tight with the
visiting Mavericks — who are the
defending 4A state champions and
are currently ranked No. 4 in the
country by Baseball America —
before Archbishop McCarthy broke
open a two-run game in the sixth
inning by sending 13 batters to plate
and scoring nine runs to pull away
for a 12-1 victory and end Key West’s
season. The game was called after
the sixth due to the 10-run mercy
rule, the first time that the Conchs
have been a victim of the mercy rule
this season.
“We couldn’t find a way to stop the
bleeding,” Key West coach Miguel
Menendez said of the ill-fated sixth
inning, which started with the
Conchs trailing, 3-1. “They’re a good
team and they took advantage. They
just found a way and kept battling.
That’s why they’re ranked No. 4 in the
country, I guess. We were right there,
though. We just ran out of gas.”
MIKE HENTZ/The Citizen
Key West second baseman Joseph Varela can’t make the play at second on
Friday night in the Conchs’ season-ending 12-1 loss to Archbishop McCarthy.
The Mavericks (26-3) jumped to a
quick 2-0 lead when starting pitcher Alex Fernandez helped his own
cause by blasting a one-out, tworun homer to the football bleachers in straightaway center. Conchs
freshman starter Darren Miller,
however, struck out the next two
batters — he struck out three in the
first inning — to prevent any further
damage.
Key West (17-10) answered back
in the bottom of the first by taking advantage of a rare McCarthy
mistake. No. 2 batter Tommy
Ruffennach reached on a walk with
one out and then advanced to second on a single in the next at-bat by
Michael Henriquez. Cleanup hitter
Johnny Monsalvatge hit a slow tapper back to the mound in the following at-bat, but Fernandez made
an errant throw to first that allowed
Ruffennach to score from second.
With Miller at the plate still with one
out, however, Fernandez induced a
1-3-2 double play as the Mavericks
threw out Henriquez at the plate to
end the inning and escape the jam.
Fernandez never really ran into
trouble from there as he went the
distance and allowed just three hits
— all singles — and struck out four
over six innings.

MIAMI — Adam LaRoche hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the top of the 10th and the Washington
Nationals escaped a jam in the bottom of the
inning to break a three-game losing streak by
beating the Florida Marlins, 3-2, Friday.
Washington won despite striking out 15 times.
Florida had runners at the corners with none
out in the 10th, but Drew Storen (2-1) got two
outs, and Sean Burnett retired Chris Coghlan on
a flyout for his fourth save in six chances.
Washington beat Florida for only the third

The Hawks’ fans began heading
for home. Jeff Teague was about
the only highlight for Atlanta,
scoring 21 points. That wasn’t
nearly enough against the D-Rose

Today’s Picture:
CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
Danny and Adrienne Fuston, from Buford, Ga.,
treated their 9-year-old son Will to a recent
afternoon of snapper fishing with Capt. Chris
Johnson and SeaSquared Charters. The trio
did a great job wrangling the snappers and
put a good catch together that included a
monster 25.25-inch flag yellowtail along with
a bunch of its 14-inch cousins.
Weekly Tides:
See the weather map, Page 2A
Fish Bites:
Tarpon are still biting around all the Florida Keys
bridges. Live mullet and live crabs have been the bait
of choice. Mahi mahi are thick in all depths, usually
schoolie-size, but once in a while a surprise “big boy”
shows up, including a 66-pounder in Islamorada. The
snapper bite continues to please everyone with consistent catches in 25 to 100 feet oceanside.

Today’s News:
Redbone marks $1,000,000 year for CF funding
ISLAMORADA — The
Redbone’s 22nd annual
“Fruits of our Labors” cookout, celebrating its hard work
and money raised through its
2010 series of tournaments
for cystic fibrosis research,
takes place from 6 to 8 p.m.,
Saturday, May 14, at the
Lorelei.
More than $1,000,000
was raised from last fall’s
2010 Redbone trilogy of
Keys tournaments — plus
25 other Redbone fishing
events across the U.S., the
Bahamas and Mexico — and
those efforts will be celebrated as part of the cookout on
Lorelei Beach, Mile Marker
82 bayside.
The BBQ cookout will be
offered to the first 100 people
at $15 per person or is free
when making a $100 dona-
tion for a super raffle ticket
which benefits CF Research.
The super raffle drawing
to be held at sunset is for a
Dragonfly Boatworks 16-foot
Emerger skiff complete with
a 40 hp Evinrude outboard,
Power-Pole and a Float-On
Trailer. Ticket holders need
not be present to win. There
will also be a silent auction
and live entertainment by
Big Richard and the Family
Fun Band.
Tickets are available at The
Redbone Gallery on Morada
Way at MM 81.5 or at the
Lorelei Cabana Bar. For more
information, call 305-6642002 or go to www.redbone.
org
Since the inception of the
Redbone in 1988, the Florida
Keys charity has raised $10
million.
“In the last five years we’ve
held a steady pace of raising over $1 million annually,”
said Redbone founder Capt.
Gary Ellis who now oversees
the 28 events.
The Redbone (REDfish
and BONEfish) began as
a small local Keys tournament to help CF patients like
Gary and Susan Ellis’ young
daughter, Nicole. The late
Major League Baseball Hall
of Fame slugger Ted Williams,
then an Islamorada resident,
helped the Ellises attract
many of his celebrity friends
and through the efforts of
guides, anglers and volunteers they raised $16,000 at
that first event. Within four
years it had grown to three
fall season tournaments in
the Lower, Middle and Upper
Keys.

WALTHAM, Mass. — Paul
Pierce has figured out how to
help the Boston Celtics play
better during the final minutes of their next playoff game
against the Miami Heat.
He’s going to stick around.
Pierce was ejected from the
series opener with 7 minutes
left in the fourth quarter, and
in Game 2 he strained his left
Achilles’ tendon in the first half
and was still hobbling down
the stretch. He knows that
Boston’s chances of avoiding a
3-0 hole depend on his ability
to stick around at the end, and
he plans to be there.
“Paul Pierce being in the
game in the fourth quarter,
healthy, is always going to help
the Celtics,” he said before
practice on Friday.
The Heat took the first two
games of the best-of-seven
Eastern Conference semifinals in Miami, and the series
resumes with Game 3 tonight
in Boston. For these Celtics,
who have never fallen behind
0-2 since the New Big Three
was assembled in the summer
of 2007, it’s a crucial game to
avoid what could be an insurmountable hole.
“We still feel like it’s going to
be a seven-game series,” Pierce
said. “I like our chances, especially with our backs against
the wall.”
The Celtics have reason to
be optimistic that they can
at least make a series of it.

Claude Gardner carried the big stick for Key

Henriquez and Ruffennach,
who each finished 1-for-2,
and Miller, who went 1-for-3,
accounted for Key West’s hits.
Despite never being able
to get going at the plate, the
Conchs remained in striking
distance until the sixth. Miller, in
an unusual twist of fate, struck
out cleanup hitter Nick Travieso
to begin the sixth, but Travieso
reached on a dropped third
strike and later came around
to score to get the big inning
started. Miller was chased with
two outs in the sixth after allowing back-to-back RBI doubles
to the McCarthy Nos. 8 and 9
batters. He was relieved by J.P.
Malott, who gave up four hits
and five runs with two walks
before finally getting the third
out. With the bases loaded, Ivan
Santos — the 12th batter of the
inning — blasted a three-run
triple to push the lead to 12-1
and put the Conchs in danger of
the mercy rule.
“It was tough,” Menendez said.
“We know we’re better than it
being 12-1, but things just didn’t
go our way tonight. We knew we
had a shot if we could keep it
close, but that sixth inning just
took the air out of us.”
Miller (2-2) went 52⁄3 innings
and was charged with seven
runs on nine hits with seven
strikeouts.
The loss ended the careers of
six Key West seniors, including
three who started Friday night.
Henriquez, Monsalvatge and
Clinton McCoy, who all started,
wrapped up their careers along
with Malott, Cameron Henry,
who entered as a courtesy runner against the Mavericks, and
Frankie Grizzle-Malgrat.
Menendez had a lengthy on-
Knicks in the first round and
the first two games against
Miami because of a calf injury in his right leg. The Celtics
originally called it a “minor”
injury, and he has been dayto-day from month-to-month,
but he hasn’t gotten back on
the court.
“We don’t know what to
expect,” Heat guard Dwyane
Wade said. “Shaq is a champion. He’s a guy who has won
four rings. He’s had a lot of big
playoff moments. Having him
back is going to be a boost in
energy to the crowd and to the
team. But it’s our job to go in
and continue executing our
game plan and not really worry
about who’s coming back, who’s
in the lineup and who isn’t.”
The defending Eastern
Conference
champions,
Boston won it all in 2008 and
took the Los Angeles Lakers to
seven games in the NBA finals
last year. The Celtics cruised
through the Knicks in the first
round for their date with Heat
— a matchup that had been
anticipated ever since James
and Chris Bosh joined Wade
in Miami to form the league’s
newest superteam.
But to get past them, Boston
will have to do something its
has never had to do before:
Rally from two games down in
the playoffs.
“The whole thing’s a challenge,” forward Kevin Garnett
said. “Our mentality is an all-in
mentality for (tonight’s) game
... This is it. We’ve used all our
lifelines.”
I hate to say it like that, but
it’s true. This is not a cool, kind
of, ’Keep your composure.’ No,
this is ’We’ve got to get
the next game.’ It’s all-in.
This is it, I’ve got two
pocket kings and
I’m all in.”

after the final out, while about
300 fans hung around to give
the team a standing ovation as

“I told them they have a lot
to be proud of,” Menendez said
of the talk. “I know this was
frustrating and they’re disappointed and hurt, and that’s
understandable, but at the end
of the day they have a lot to be
proud of. There wasn’t a whole
lot of people that believed in us
or believed that we would win a
district title or get to this point. I
told them to look at all the people that were here. They came
to see them. They won that and
earned the respect of the people
in this community who came to
watch them play. I’m proud of
them. It’s going to hurt now, but
when they get time to look back
and reflect, they’ve got a lot to
be proud of.”

LOUISVILLE, Ky.
— Uncle Mo
won’t run in today’s Kentucky Derby
because of a puzzling internal ailment that has reduced his appetite
and energy. The loss of the biggest
name in a field already short on star
power makes the race even more wide
open.
Owner Mike Repole announced the
decision to scratch the colt Friday
morning, about 40 minutes before
Derby wagering opened. Uncle Mo
was the 9-2 second choice on the
morning line.
His absence reduced the field for
the Derby to 19 horses. Dialed In was
the 4-1 early favorite. Churchill Downs
oddsmaker Mike Battaglia revised the
morning line to make Dialed In the
9-2 favorite.
In 2009, favorite I Want Revenge
was scratched on the morning of the
Derby with a career-ending leg injury.
A week before last year’s Derby, heavy
favorite Eskendereya dropped out
with a bad ankle.
“It shows how tough our business
is and how unfortunate it is, too,” said
Dialed In trainer Nick Zito, superstitiously knocking on a wood sign on
his barn. “We all would have liked to
see him run. It’s devastating.”

The Factor and Jaycito, on the road to
the Derby.
“You’re never safe until you put
that saddle on because anything can
happen,” said Baffert, who will saddle Midnight Interlude. “Everybody
says there’s no woofing in your sport.
That’s because we don’t want to jinx
ourselves. You woof afterwards, when
you win.”
Pletcher, who trained Eskendereya,
still won his first Derby last year with
long shot Super Saver.
“Honestly, I’ve never had a horse as
good as Uncle Mo,” he said. “To not
make it here is a big letdown. I take it
as a personal failure.”
Uncle Mo’s illness, which began as
a gastrointestinal inflammation, was
discovered after he was upset as the
heavy favorite in the Wood Memorial
on April 9. He led most of the way
before finishing third, beaten by a
length.
The colt was put on medication,
which Pletcher said helped initially,
and he continued training in preparation for the 11⁄4-mile Derby, the opening leg of the Triple Crown series.
On the track during workouts, Uncle
Mo appeared to be in good form, and
Repole said the colt was 100 percent
sound. He “galloped like a monster”
Friday morning, Pletcher added.
Around the barn, though, he was
showing signs that something was
amiss. His appetite was lower, he lost
weight and his coat didn’t look good,
Pletcher said.
“We’ve got something going on
inside that I don’t know what it is. The
best vets in the world don’t know what
it is,” the trainer said. “When you don’t
know, that’s when I get scared.”
Three vets examined Uncle Mo
on Thursday and didn’t say the colt
couldn’t run in the Derby. However,
after they left the barn, Pletcher sat

Downs as this woman proves as she

Friday’s Kentucky Oaks.
down with Repole and said he didn’t
want Uncle Mo to go.
“I’m actually relieved and now I’m
really concerned and worried about
Uncle Mo,” Repole said. “We’ve gotten the best vets. I’m willing to give
this horse the best resources to come
back. He is a superstar.”
Pletcher said Uncle Mo had a GI
infection, but no one is sure if it was
the main issue or a secondary problem. The colt’s blood work showed a
specific enzyme was elevated, and the
vets couldn’t explain why.
“They’re baffled,” Repole said.
“That’s what gets us nervous the
most.”
For now, Uncle Mo will remain at
Churchill Downs and may visit a clinic
for another diagnosis.
Pletcher decided Thursday that
Uncle Mo shouldn’t run and Repole
agreed. Both defended the decision to
enter the horse on Wednesday, which
ensured that Sway Away would be
excluded from the field, limited to 20
starters.
“We weren’t trying to prevent someone else from entering. We needed
every minute to try to figure this out
and we ran out of time,” Pletcher
said.

Canada goes to shootout
to beat United States, 4-3
BY KAREL JANICEK
The Associated Press
KOSICE, Slovakia — Jordan Eberle and captain Rick Nash scored in a penalty shootout
to lift Canada to a 4-3 victory over the United
States in the second round of the ice hockey
world championship on Friday.
Canada goalie James Reimer made 17 saves
and stopped Jack Johnson and Blake Wheeler in
the shootout.
“It was difficult, they have a good team, they
work hard and they proved that,” Nash said.
“It’s a great rivalry... It was a tough game, but we
enjoyed it.”
Ty Conklin made 49 saves for the U.S.
Canada is tied with Sweden for the Group F
lead with seven points and plays Norway today,
while the U.S. has four points with two more
games left. The U.S. faces France next in a mustwin game.
“Satisfied? Not really,” Johnson said. “It’s
a loss, no matter how it looked... it was a
loss.”
Canada outshot the U.S. 52-20 in the game
and 14-4 in the first period, but couldn’t immediately find the net.
After a scoreless first period, Mike Komisarek
scored what looked like a soft goal from inside
the blue line to give the U.S. a 1-0 lead 4:13 into
the second.
Reimer said he would probably never concede a goal like that again.
Brent Burns equalized two minutes later, but
Blake Wheeler set up the second U.S. goal later
in the period, with Jack Johnson scoring on a
breakaway.
Canada came back again through John
Tavares, who scored 3:27 into the third, and
took the lead when Jason Spezza scored on a
power play.
Derek Stepan tied the game with 8:43 remaining, forcing overtime with his first goal of the
tournament.

Nationals anticipating a bunt by Nolasco, a
missed sign left Buck stranded off third in a
rundown, and he was tagged out.
The Marlins made it 2-all with a run in the
sixth. Emilio Bonifacio walked, took third on
a single by Hanley Ramirez and scored on a
single by Gaby Sanchez.
Florida’s Logan Morrison took batting practice
for the first time since hurting his left foot April 19.
He’s expected to go on a brief rehabilitation assignment and may rejoin the Marlins for their next trip
beginning May 13. Werth stole second base in the
eighth but had to return to first because the batter,
LaRoche, hit catcher Buck in the helmet with his
bat following through on his swing. Buck fell to the
ground but stayed in the game.
THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ SATURDAY, MAY 7, 2011
HOROSCOPES for today
Saturday, May 7, 2011
Be friendly to all new people you meet in the next year,
because several folks whose
thinking and morals closely parallel yours could become very
valuable friends and could contribute greatly to your happiness.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
-- There are indications that you
could quickly overreact to something a friend does that you find
objectionable. Later when you
calm down, you’ll realize you
took it the wrong way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -It’s always wise to take measures
to safeguard your valuables, but
you might need to be especially
careful to do so currently. Don’t
leave your house or car unlocked,
even for a short time.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
-- This could turn out to be a very
bad day for rehashing volatile
issues with anybody, but espe-

cially your mate. Once you open
Pandora’s box, you’re not likely to
be able to close it again.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Regardless of the adverse conditions with which you may have to
contend, do everything you can
to maintain a positive attitude.
Succumbing to a negative reaction could make matters worse.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Correct any misunderstanding
you have with a friend immediately. If you allow it to fester, you
could start thinking about evening the score somehow, which
would only make matters worse.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you
find yourself in a position of authority,
don’t do anything to make others
think you’re throwing your weight
around. Heavy-handed tactics will
boomerang on you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
-- Try to stay on the straight and
narrow, because any broad mood
swing will distort your judgment
and throw you way off-course,
making you either too pessimistic
or unrealistic.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.
21) -- Don’t take on any new
long-range financial obligations
if you can help it. If things do not
go the way you think, it would put
you in a severe financial bind.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) -- If the very people who are
usually quite supportive of your
actions are opposed to what you
want to do, take a second look
at matters. They may see things
you don’t.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) -- Be sure to take the time
to maintain good relationships
with co-workers by praising their
accomplishments if they’ve done
something special. Don’t let them
feel taken for granted.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
-- Taking a financial risk on a
venture or enterprise that is considered chancy could knock the
stuffing out of your wallet. Make
sure you are in control of matters, not the other way around.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
-- Regardless of how upset you
might get over a remark or action
of a loved one, don’t speak out
on it in front of outsiders. Resolve
all domestic rumbles within the
confines of your home.

Doc Searls, a columnist
and author, wrote in his blog,
“We play the hands of cards
life gives us. And the worst
hands can make us the best
players.”
At the bridge table, the
defenders usually have the
worst hands, but sometimes
those limited resources are
sufficient to defeat the contract. Occasionally, though,
a defender must know which

South was a tad aggressive
in jumping to three no-trump,
but he liked his secondary
club fit.
Even if you had won the
first club trick, it would have
been silly to return a diamond. Should you now shift
to spades, or to hearts?
Given South’s initial response,
a spade looks like the better
bet. However, which spade
should you lead?
Since you expect partner to
have only four spades (surely
with 5-5 in spades and diamonds, he would have led
a spade), you should lead
the spade jack. You must
both unblock the suit and be
able to lead twice through

returns the spade four to your
king. Now you lead the two

the jaws of West’s nine-seven.

THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ SATURDAY, MAY 7, 2011
YOUNG WIDOW FINDS COMFORT AND
GUILT IN NEW ROMANCE
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I
were together 11 years -- since we
were 12 -- and married for four. He
was killed in a car accident, and I
am now a 23-year-old widow. I was
in the passenger seat when he died. I
sustained multiple injuries, but
none as great as the massive
anxiety I can’t seem to shake.
I have had a great deal of
support from friends and family.
However, two months after my
husband died I began talking
to “Brian,” a family friend who
is going through a divorce.
We’d stay up for hours talking
about the things we were going
through. I have developed love
for Brian that is beyond anything I
have felt before, built on a great deal
of strength and heartache.
We moved fast because of our
mutual need to have someone there
for us. I feel guilty, however, that I
have this relationship so soon after
my husband’s death. On top of all this,
I have huge anxiety, the result of guilt,
PTSD and my fear of abandonment.
I feel isolated because I’m so much
younger than most widows I meet.
Also, because I have the complicating
factor of Brian’s divorce (with two kids)
going on now, I’m afraid my anxiety
will never decrease. I can’t reject the
love I have for him. We’ve been there
for each other through a time of great
hardship. I want to be able to relax
and enjoy it, not stress out and destroy
it. Can you give me any advice? -YOUNG WIDOW IN PAIN
DEAR YOUNG WIDOW: Allow me
to offer my deepest sympathy for the
loss of your husband. After what you
have been through, it’s understandable
that you would experience the feelings
you have been having. But if you
are going to move on in the right
direction, I urge you to discuss your
current situation with a mental health
professional -- preferably one who
specializes in post-traumatic stress
and anxiety.
While it’s wonderful that you have
met someone so soon, I urge you to
make no permanent decisions for at
least a year. You and Brian can
support each other, but each
of you is needy right now, and
that’s not a basis for a healthy
relationship. With time, the
anxieties will ease and what’s
causing them will lessen.
If you’ll forgive the baseball
vernacular, my advice is to bunt
rather than try to swing for a
home run now. It will improve
your odds of not striking out.
DEAR ABBY: My wife likes to
sunbathe in the nude in our side yard.
Anyone walking by on the sidewalk,
or riding by on a bike or in a car
can easily see her over our 3-foot-tall
picket fence.
She is a beautiful woman and
has nothing to be ashamed of, but
knowing strangers can see her in the
buff makes me uncomfortable. She
says I should get over it. Should I? -EMBARRASSED ON ELM STREET
DEAR EMBARRASSED: Your wife
assumes that your neighbors and
passersby are as open-minded as she
is. Please remind her that if a mother
should walk by with a child, she could
be deeply offended, call the police and
your sun-worshipping wife could be
charged with indecent exposure. A tall
hedge in the front of your side yard
would screen her from public view.
Please consider it.
Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van
Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips,
and was founded by her mother,
Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at
www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440,
