launch a civil rights probe into
the matter.
“I am asking for a formal
investigation and perhaps
a grand jury evaluation of
Walgreens pharmacies in the
Lower Keys,” Dr. Elias Gerth
wrote in twin letters to State
Attorney Catherine Vogel and
U.S. Attorney for the Southern
District of Florida Wilfredo
Ferrer.
“I believe that Walgreens
pharmacies are discriminating against and violating the
civil rights of many Keys residents,” the letter states.
At issue are the questions
local pharmacists at the two
Walgreens in Key West and
one store in Big Pine Key have
been asking Gerth’s patients
before filling prescriptions
for controlled substances and
at times sending them away
empty handed.

bombing is captured
WATERTOWN, Mass. — A 19year-old college student wanted
in the Boston Marathon bombings was taken into custody
Friday evening after a manhunt
that left the city virtually paralyzed and his older brother and
accomplice dead.
Police announced viaTwitter
that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was
in custody. His brother, 26year-old Tamerlan, was killed
Friday in a furious attempt to
escape police.

Kirby Congdon, a part-time long-term
Key West resident who has published
poetry for the past 65 years, is the city’s
first official Poet Laureate.
“Whatever that means,” Congdon
said Friday, in advance of a proper ceremony scheduled for 6 p.m. today at The
Studios of Key West. “In olden times it
meant you wrote poems to order for the
king and queen and all of parliament. I
don’t write poems to order. I just take it
as a compliment. I’m a dedicated poet
and they recognize my activities. I think
friends set it up.”
At 88, Congdon calls them as he sees
them when it comes to accolades, his
own work and even why he stopped riding motorcycles about eight years ago
after four decades behind the throttle.
“I quit pretending to be a teenager,”
Congdon said, recalling a dangerous
thunderstorm that erupted as he was
riding along the bridge by the Garrison
Bight.
Age has made riding a bicycle nearly
impossible.
“I stay with walking and that’s helped
my health,” he said. “I’m not going to
ride a tricycle. They take up all the room
and you’ve got to be in the street. It’s
unmasculine and it’s inconvenient.”
Congdon, who says poetry is the only
thing he does well, has published dozens of books of his poetry and prose,
including the collections “Aipotu,” and
“Poems from Fire Island Pines and Key
West.”
Writing about motorcycle fantasies,
machinery, rural New England and at
times cats, Congdon has built a following of his own.
Novelist Rosalind Brackenbury said of
Congdon: “Sometimes, late in this materialistic century, you may wonder where
all the rebellious young men of the ‘60s
have gone, the idealists, the poets who
won’t compromise. . . . One of these is
Kirby Congdon.”
He began publishing his work while

The Monroe County Commission agreed this week to
have an engineering firm
review Old Seven Mile bridge
inspection reports and possibly inspect the bridge itself to
determine its condition.
The county is being asked
to help pay for renovations
to the old bridge, which total
roughly $18 million. Florida
Department of Transportation
(FDOT) has agreed to pay for
half, but only on the condition that the county take
over the maintenance of the
bridge.
FDOT inspection reports
indicate there are structural
issues with the bridge, said
county commissioners, who
have seen the reports, but are
prohibited from making them
public because the Department
of Homeland Security deemed
portions “classified.”

1865 Word reached Key West about the death of President
Abraham Lincoln in Washington on April 15. All flags were at
half-staff and Fort Taylor fired a gun every half hour.
1901 The schooner Harris Bros. sank after colliding with the
schooner Queen near Key Largo. The night was extremely dark
and neither boat had a light. The Queen struck the Harris Bros.
just aft of the fore rigging, causing damage to itself and sinking
the Harris Bros.
1952 The Key West Players at the Barn Theater opened a show
of five one-act dramas by Key West resident Tennessee Williams.
Williams supervised all plays and personally directed “Mooney’s
Kid Don’t Cry.”
1980 Key West fishing boats Dos Hermanos and Blanche III
arrived in Key West with 48 Cuban refugees, officially starting the
Mariel Boat Lift. By the end of the boat lift in late summer more
than 130,000 refugees had arrived in Key West.
1982 A group of locals led by attorney David Paul Horan filed
suit in federal court in Miami to have the U.S. Border Patrol’s
roadblock at Florida City removed.
1989 James “Jimmy” Kirkwood, Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award
winner, author, actor and playwright for whom Key West was his
legal residence, died of spinal cancer in New York.
“To the person who was wondering why gas is 30 cents cheaper
up the Keys: While it may not
sound fair, maybe it should be
considered that you probably don’t
leave town often since everything
is located right in town. So even
though you are paying more, your
gas is actually going farther. You
don’t need to fill your tank as often
as those people who need to drive
down to Key West in order to do
their shopping.”
“After all the years of climbing
and clawing their way to the top,
I don’t blame Beyonce and Jay Z
for taking a tour of Cuba. It’s their
business and no one else’s. It’s
about time our government and
those wonderful protesting Cubans
in Miami realize the only thing
the sanctions are hurting are the
people, not the government. The
Cubans in Miami and in this country are two-faced. They should want
to help their people and these
sanctions should be done away
with. Enough is enough.”
“I think that the media needs to
stop over-reporting terrorist attacks
because it encourages these
people. How many people die
every day and they do not lower
the flags to half staff? You’re just
encouraging terrorism when you
over-report it.”

KEY WEST — Police continued to follow leads on the open
investigation into the disappearance of Michelle Henson
who was reported missing
more than three years ago from
her houseboat in Cow Key
Channel.
Officers went to Cow Key
Channel Tuesday in an effort to
find Darrell Henshaw, a homeless man who first reported
Henson missing from her
houseboat on Feb. 24, 2010,
according to a police incident
report.
The officers were not successful in finding Henshaw or
anyone with information about
Henson, reports say. The criminal case remains open.
Henson, 38, was drinking
“I wonder if the driver of the
delivery truck that ran into the

“Don’t bring justice to the terrorists. Bring them to the gallows and
you’ll see results.”
“The long time yard man on Duck
Key who swears at the elderly
woman when she objects to his

committing elderly abuse. I believe
that is a crime.”
“As someone who likes to see
fewer crowds in Key West than

Chamber of Commerce and the
hotel owners for their price gouging. They are now charging the
highest rates beyond Miami.”

she was reported missing, but
those men then reportedly

them, but did not call them

They told detectives she was

shore in windy, wavy conditions, despite them warning
her not to go ashore in the
rough waters.
Henson subsequently vanished and what became of her

searching for evidence showing that painkillers were loosely
dispensed.
The investigation led to
the government barring the
Walgreens shipping center in
Jupiter from dealing in oxycodone and other controlled opiates.
Walgreens sued the DEA, losing the first court round and
in March argued before a U.S.
appellate court in Washington,
D.C. that the DEA based its
decisions on outdated information.
The DEA accused Walgreens
of knowingly filling questionable orders for the powerful
opiates.
“Even when managers recognized that orders plainly raised
suspicions, they continued
to make shipments without
conducting inquiries,” Justice
Department attorneys stated in
a brief filed with the court.
Between 2009 and 2012,
Walgreens Jupiter was the single largest distributor of oxycodone in Florida, with 52 of
the stores among the top 100
buyers of oxycodone statewide,
the DEA said.
At issue is the increasing
scrutiny that pharmacies have
been applying before filling
prescriptions for highly addictive medications such as oxycodone, hydrocodone and
morphine.
In the wake of the statewide
crackdown on pill mills, whose
sheer volume of oxycodone
and other drugs gave Florida

Prosecutors allege Lindor also filed a
claim stating his hours at the Coalition of
Florida Farm Workers Organizations were

The false claims were filed through the
now-closed Gulf Coast Claims Facility,

The city of Key West this
week began putting into place
zoning laws that would heavily
restrict pain management clinics, despite the fact that there
are none on the island.
City Planner Don Craig
began working on the zoning a year ago, after fielding
a couple of calls from parties
interested in setting up shop
in Key West.
“Rates of prescription drug
abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number
of accidental poisonings and
overdoses due to these drugs,”
city spokeswoman Alyson
Crean said Thursday in a press
release. “Studies show that a
majority of abused prescription
drugs are obtained from family
and friends, including from the
home medicine cabinet.”
The release announced yet
another “Take Back” event in
Key West, set for Saturday, April
27.
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
that day, the Key West Police
Department and the DEA will
be at Bayview Park offering to
dispose of anyone’s unwanted
prescription drugs.
“Bring your medications
for disposal to the gazebo at
Bayview Park,” Crean said. “The
service is free and anonymous,
no questions asked.”
Last September, Americans
turned in 244 tons of prescription drugs at some 5,200 sites
set up by the DEA and state and
local law enforcement, Crean
said.
In five previous Take Back
events, the haul was more than
2 million pounds, or 1,000 tons,
of pills.

Gerth, who has practiced

22 years and ten years prior to
that having never been disciplined or sued, ended the letter by saying he has personal
knowledge of “these issues and
there are many patients who
are willing to corroborate.”
On Friday, Vogel said she
couldn’t comment on Gerth’s
letter and said her office is
reviewing it but hasn’t yet made
any decisions on the doctor’s
request.
“I’ll certainly take a look at
the letter,” Vogel said.
Ferrer’s office wouldn’t comment at all, said spokeswoman
Alicia Valle, not even to confirm
it received the letter.
Gerth said he hadn’t heard
a response to his letters as of
Friday, adding, “it’s too early.”
Walgreens corporate headquarters is telling doctors it is
simply following instructions
from the Drug Enforcement
Administration, which monitors pharmacies for the
amounts of oxycodone and
other pills that are bought and
sold on the street.
“Our
pharmacists
are
required to take additional
steps when verifying certain
prescriptions for controlled
substances,” a generic form
letter to from “Your Walgreens
Pharmacist” states. “Potential
questions could include information about the diagnosis ...
expected length of therapy and
previous medications/therapies tried and failed.”
Federal law places the
responsibility on such prescriptions squarely on the
prescribing doctor, but adds a
“corresponding responsibility”
with the pharmacist who fills
the prescription.
A pharmacist “knowingly filling” an illegitimate prescription is subject to penalties, the
law says.
Gerth has called Walgreens’
approach a violation of health
privacy laws. But Walgreens
says its pharmacists fall under
the law’s definition of a “healthcare professional” providing
care to the patient.
“Privacy laws allow you to
share this information with
another healthcare professional who is providing care to the
patient,” the Walgreens form
letter to doctors says.

Grading teachers: Put
legislators to the test
growing number of
states are implementing teacher-evaluation
systems to weed out weak
instructors, reports The New
York Times. But it found that
the systems often produce
glowing results.
In Florida, 97 percent of
teachers were rated effective
or highly effective in the most
recent evaluations.
It’s a good idea to grade
teachers, but problems with
Florida’s system need to be
fixed before the state moves
forward next year with plans
to award pay raises based on
those evaluations.
Just one proposal is currently advancing in the Legislature
that would make changes to
the system, SB 90. The measure would require evaluations
to be based on the performance of students assigned to
teachers.
As an example of what is
wrong, take a Janine Plavac
of Gainsville. The high school
teacher teachers — like many
others — is penalized because

evaluation was based on the
FCAT scores of 21 ninth-graders whom she did not instruct
in reading or math.
Just 35 percent of teachers
teach courses that culminate
with a standardized test, the
Tampa Bay Times reports.
Gov. Rick Scott has proposed
across-the-board $2,500 raises
for Florida teachers. Some
lawmakers have insisted that
raises be tied to merit. For
now, giving overdue raises to
all teachers seems like the better course.
Next year, the state is adopting a new curriculum known
as the Common Core and new
standardized tests. It would
seem like an ideal time to
delay implementation of merit
pay to ensure that the state has
a sensible evaluation system
in place.
The idea of merit pay may
make sense and including test
scores in some way may be
needed to evaluate student
progress.
Nonetheless, the system is a
mess. State lawmakers should
step back — and make a major
overhaul or start over — and
become a national example of
doing things the right way.

Courage in the face of evil
T
he Boston Marathon is so
much more than one of
the world’s foremost endurance tests. It is one of the
most egalitarian of events, too,
attracting the sport’s most elite
athletes but also runners from
all walks of life and all ages.
After Monday’s bombings at
the marathon, many in the
crowd also ran — toward the
danger to help runners and
spectators who were injured
in the explosions. A legendary
race best known for its intense
physical challenges is now also
remembered for its selfless
humanity in the face of evil.
It takes a special commitment to take on a grueling
26.2-mile race. Some 23,000
runners had accepted the test
of conquering Boston’s hilly
contours only to have their
sense of accomplishment shat-
tered by violence that left three
people dead, including an
8-year-old boy. More than 170
runners and fans were hurt.
The courageous reaction
of Boston’s residents, visitors
and athletes to care for one
another alongside emergency
personnel was inspiring but
not surprising. At the nation’s
founding 237 years ago,
Boston was at the epicenter
of the resistance to the forces
of oppression, tyranny and
fear. Just as the country came
together after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, so too, when the
2014 Boston Marathon is held
the city will come together to
compete in the memory of
those who came so close to the
finish line and to honor a city’s
spirit unbroken by cowards in
the shadows.

Letters to the editor
We’re being destroyed
by partisan politics
Rome wasn’t built — nor
destroyed — in a day. Over
time there was a breakdown
in the culture and consciousness that made them viable.
Their empire fell apart, never
to regain its greatness.
The forces that destroyed
the Roman Empire are alive
and well in the United States.
It’s reflected in our overreaching government, corrupt politicians and cultural relativism. Character building and
personal achievement, along
with accepting responsibility
for one’s actions, have been
shelved on behalf of political
correctness.
Violence and murderous
spectacles inundate our society via the movie industry
and Internet. Outrageous and
self-indulgent entertainment
is put forth as a respective art
form.
I know some extraordinary
educators and students in
our school district. However,
children are not being served
well by the American public
school system. Their secondrate education has ranked
last and near the bottom in
every measurable academic
area, when compared to other
school systems from around
the world.
Florida’s dropout rate is at
29 percent. Nearly one out of
every three students will drop
out of school. These young
Americans are funneled into
our society under-served and
lacking. Many will require
government care, paid for by
the taxpayer, in perpetuity.
Dialogue addressing the
real issues that are before us
has been stifled by zealots and
ideologues.
Far too frequently, free
speech has become irrelevant, for it has become
politicized. Government and
journalists sharing a particular belief have conspired in
many instances to carry each
other’s water for the sake of
advancing their access, power
and influence.
There isn’t any need for our
rulers to be alert and effective.
They are shielded from their
incompetence and insulated
from the consequences of
their destructive decisions by
their allies in the press.
Demonizing citizens who
value and adhere to a set of
principles and ideas differing from the ruling elites has
become the favorite pastime
of the state-run media.
America has been seriously wounded by the partisan
drives of those determined to
suppress political discourse.
They take comfort in smugly
mocking our founding documents as being obsolete and
irrelevant, as they play with
their fiddles.

everyday people inquiring as
to the lack of activity on the
North Roosevelt Boulevard
improvement project, so I did
my own investigation. It turns
out that The de Moya Group,
contractor for the project,
has successfully lobbied for
the Florida Department of
Transportation to place the
job site on PAWZ (Pain in the
A** Work Zone) status.
“To qualify for PAWZ,
explains Charlie Phinizy,
FDOT project manager, “a job
site must meet two requirements: a) Be subject to direct
sunlight during the hours of
“daytime;” and b) Be in plain
view to the general public.”
Phinizy said, “We tried going
the ‘Green Screen’ route but
it afforded workers only partial
shade and privacy for their mandatory mid-morning beer and
doughnut break and left them
unprotected from sun and citizen
scrutiny. It most truly is a pain
in the a** to work under these
conditions. That’s why we have
placed this project on PAWZ.”
A meeting to determine the
future status of the project has
been scheduled for “manana” —
not necessarily tomorrow, just not
today. The meeting will be open
to the public and The de Moya
Group has promised free beer.

session. It’s more like a court
session. After UTM’s and
the School Board’s attorneys
present their positions, the
School Board, acting as a
legislative body, is empowered to “take such actions as
it deems to be in
the public interest,
including the interest of the employees involved.”
On behalf of the
teachers, and other
school-related
personnel, UTM is
rejecting the seven
furlough days that the School
Board insists are needed to
balance their budget.
Remember when the sky
was falling and the school
district was in danger of
falling below the required 3
percent fund balance? Oddly
enough, the annual financial
report that all school dis-
tricts must file with the state
shows that the school district
ended that school year with
a 7.12 percent fund balance.
That’s a far cry from the state
requirement! In addition, the
county school district budget
for 2012-13 projects more
revenue for 2012-13 school
year, so we ask you, “Really?
Seven more furlough days?”
With all of the recent
sequester stories, many of
you already know that a
furlough day is supposed to
reduce the number of days
that employees work because
an employer has the need to
reduce their pay. The Monroe
County School Board didn’t
even have the decency to give
the employees seven days
off! Instead, they reduced
our pay without reducing our
work year. That’s not a furlough, that’s a pay cut. Seven
days working for free repre-
sents a 3.6 percent pay cut
for Monroe County school
employees.
There are nine school districts in Florida that have
a fund balance percentage
that is lower than that of
the Monroe County School
District.
None of those nine school
districts furloughed their
employees — let alone furloughed their employees
for seven days for two years
in a row! I take that back.
Broward County is one of the
nine whose fund balance is
a smaller percentage than
that of Monroe’s. In Broward,
the School Board agreed
with their employees that
they could take two furlough
days, or they could engage in
professional development to
earn those two days of pay.
And that agreement was for
the 2011-2012 school year.
No furlough days for Broward
this school year.
The Monroe County School
Board is completely failing
its employees. They’ve made
promises they haven’t kept
and made claims of UTM
demanding raises that simply
are not true. It’s time that
the School Board treats its
employees with the dignity
and respect that we deserve.
Enough is enough! Please
join us Monday evening at
the Marathon High School
Media Center beginning at
5:30 p.m.

equate my carb, protein and fat
intake rather well, I think. My mother says I need to change my schedule, i.e., exercise at night, but that’s
not possible. What can I do to break
this frustrating rut and accomplish
my goal?
— In a rut
Dear In a rut:
Your letter is an interesting one.
It leads me in many different directions. One direction wants to know
why you are no longer a nutritionist.
Another is, what do you mean by
moderating your diet? Finally, are
you female?
I wish I could have you in front of
me while I compose this response.
You have created many questions
I’d like to ask to help me firm up my
answers.
Initially, I would move your cardio
to seven days a week if possible. I
don’t know what type of cardio you
currently employ, but I would be
doing some protracted, low intensity aerobics along with the higher
intensity stuff. Perhaps you could
alternate the high- low days: one day
high intensity aerobics, next day the
low intensity version. This would
keep the body guessing all of the
time and reduce the “set” point and
reduce the rut factor.
Your body could be getting used
to the same old thing and be trying
to convince you it is really burning
up those calories when it is on autopilot, going through the motions.
This appears to be happening to you
now. Not losing any weight is a fairly
good indicator of that. The body is
slick. It can conserve energy quite
well.
My second plan of attack would
be to greatly vary the amount of
calories you ingest daily. Here again,
the body could be getting by on your
modified intake, but if you vary the
caloric intake, your body is forced
to adjust to the increase or decrease
of calories. If by modifying as you
say you mean calorie decrease, than
the body can slow its metabolic rate
dramatically. Incredible as this may
sound, by suddenly upping your
calorie intake in a day, your body
will have to step up its metabolic
rate to deal with the sudden influx of
calories! Sometimes this is all it takes
to get you into a fat burning mode
again!
I’m talking about an adjustment of
500 to 600 calories up or down. The
body cannot adapt to a set point and
you should be able to start losing the
weight again. A set point is where
your body wants to stay weightwise. Fat or thin. You know someone
who can eat “anything” and not
gain weight. Their set point is set on
skinny! You can trick the body to
begin losing weight if you try these
two simple items. Let me know what
happens. Write back and I can ask
more questions!

Taste test several different options until you find
a couple you love. Try to avoid the ones that are
fried, overly breaded or drowning in fatty sauces.
Don’t waste your money stocking up on something you feel like you have to eat. Keep testing
until you find some fruits and veggies you really
want to eat. Ready for some healthy food?

PEOPLE IN THE NEWS
LONDON — Prince Harry
said Friday he will take part
in a race to the South Pole
later this year, leading a team
of wounded
British military personnel against
counterparts
from Australia,
Canada and
the U.S.
Prince Harry
In a tonguein-cheek challenge issued at a news conference, the 28-year-old royal
warned his competitors that
the Brits would have some tea
“ready for you when you join
us at the Pole.”
Harry and his fellow Walking
With The Wounded teammates
will participate in the 208-mile
South Pole Allied Challenge in
November and December of
this year.
That may be the height of
the Antarctic summer, but
conditions will still be bitterly
cold. The four-week expedition will see racers drag sleds
weighing more than 150
pounds and face extreme temperatures and savage winds.
Harry has already taken
part in one expedition with
Walking With The Wounded,
a charity which raises funds
and keeps injured servicemen
and women in the public eye
through feats of endurance.
In 2011, he took part in
the charity’s North Pole trek,
but had to withdraw earlier
to attend his brother Prince
William’s wedding to Kate
Middleton.
During the news conference, Harry was given a red
polar coat by adventurer Inge

Boston bombing Suspect No. 2 captured alive
The Associated Press
WATERTOWN,
Mass.
— A 19-year-old college student wanted in the Boston
Marathon bombings was
taken into custody Friday
evening after a manhunt that
left the city virtually paralyzed and his older brother
and accomplice dead.
Police announced via
Twitter
that
Dzhokhar
Tsarnaev was in custody.
His brother, 26-year-old
Tamerlan, was killed Friday
in a furious attempt to escape
police.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had
been holed up in a boat in
a Watertown neighborhood.
The crowd gathered near the
scene let out a cheer when
spectators saw officers clapping.
“Everyone wants him alive,”
said Kathleen Paolillo, a 27year-old teacher who lives in
Watertown.
Boston Mayor Tom Menino
tweeted “We got him,” along
with a photo of the police commissioner speaking to him.
During a long night of violence Thursday into Friday,
the brothers killed an MIT
police
officer,
severely
wounded another lawman
and hurled explosives at
police in a car chase and gun
battle, authorities said.
The suspects were identified by law enforcement officials and family members
as Dzhokhar and Tamerlan
Tsarnaev, ethnic Chechen
brothers who had lived in
Dagestan, which neighbors
Chechnya in southern Russia.
They had been in the U.S.
for about a decade, an uncle
said, and were believed to be
living in Cambridge, Mass.
FBI/The Associated Press
This photo released Friday by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation
shows Boston Marathon bombing
suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, taken
alive into custody Friday night.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, a 26year-old who had been known
to the FBI as Suspect No. 1
and was seen in surveillance
footage of the marathon in a
black baseball cap, was killed
overnight, officials said. His
younger brother, who had
been dubbed Suspect No.
2 and was seen wearing a
white, backward baseball cap
Authorities also searched
trains.
“We believe this man to be
a terrorist,” said Boston Police
Commissioner Ed Davis. “We
believe this to be a man who’s
come here to kill people.”
The bombings on Monday
killed three people and
wounded more than 180 others, tearing off limbs in a spray
of shrapnel and instantly raising the specter of another terrorist attack on U.S. soil.
Chechnya was the scene

7 Mile
Continued from Page 1A
In recent weeks, Commissioner Danny Kolhage has
been pushing FDOT to release
the inspection reports, arguing the public needs to know
the condition of the bridge if
millions of taxpayer dollars will
be used to maintain it. He also
said the bridge is no longer
used as a roadway, and should
not be subject to Homeland
Security requirements.
At Wednesday’s commission
meeting, Kolhage threatened
to call for a vote asking the
commission to file a lawsuit to
make the records public, but
he backed off his request when
the commission agreed to ask
FDOT if a private engineering
firm that currently contracts
with the county could review
the reports.
“This is a major public investment. I think we would have

a good case,” Kolhage said of
suing FDOT. “We need to have
an independent engineering
report to determine the longevity of that bridge.”
County
Administrator
Roman Gatesi told the commission that FDOT “is fine with”
having an independent engineering firm review the reports.
However, the firm’s report to
the commission “could be confidential,” County Attorney Bob
Shillinger said.
Kolhage told The Citizen
after the meeting that he still
believes the inspection reports
should be released to the public.
The county has several engineering firms under contract.
Some of those firms specialize
specifically on bridges, County
Engineer Kevin Wilson said.
Commissioners also proposed the engineers visit the
bridge and “spot check it,” they
said.
FDOT has told the County
Commission that the annual
cost of maintaining the Old
Seven Mile Bridge would be
about $70,000 a year, and the
county would have to spend
$3.5 million every 10 years to
paint it. The county would have
to set aside about $420,000 a
year to cover the annual costs
and save for the 10-year paint
job, Gastesi has said.
Kolhage and other commissioners have questioned the
accuracy of the estimates, as
they do not take into account
work that may be needed below
the water line.
There are several business
groups in Marathon that have
been lobbying the county and
FDOT to renovate the bridge.
Also on Wednesday, the
commission approved a contract to continue to pay for
ferry service to Pigeon Key off
the Old Seven Mile Bridge. The
county’s share of the ferry service for one year is $87,500. The
city of Marathon has agreed

his license had been suspended

before on Stock Island, according to a press release.
Hamley went to the DMV to
get his license reinstated, but
while there, he was told it had
been suspended for failure to
pay child support, Herrin said.
Hamley then allegedly told the
clerk he would like to blow up
the Child Support Enforcement

Employees at the DMV told
him to leave the office and he
did, returning a few minutes
later to apologize. Employees
told Hamley to leave again and
then called police.
Deputies responded to
the threatened building in
Marathon, where they removed
employees from the building
and checked it for any suspicious packages or explosives.
Finding none, they allowed
everyone back inside, according to the press release.
In the meantime, Key West

and told people to return to

Poets
Continued from Page 1A
in his 30s, making his home in New York,
where he became part of the postwar
avant-garde scene and watched as The
Beat poets ushered in a new era.
“They were a release because all I had
was high school poetry,” Congdon said.
“I saw what they were doing. It was very
daring. Gregory Corso was almost an illiterate poet. He was daring to say things
and do things I wouldn’t have done. He
was respected and added to the history of
poetry by just being honest. It was clumsy
work but it was convincing.”
He plans to read tonight from his 65
years of poetry, after City Commissioner
Jimmy Weekley opens the show by reading the formal proclamation the commission approved earlier this year naming the
island’s first Poet Laureate.
The Key West Poetry Guild suggested
Congdon, said Weekley.
“We’ve had Poet Laureates that have
lived here,” Weekley said, referring to the
nationally selected poets. “I’m hoping that
it’s something we can do every year to
recognize someone as Poet Laureate of
Key West. It could be the same person to
achieve that honor.”
While Poet Laureates have been around
for centuries, the U.S. started its own literary tradition in 1937, then calling poet
Joseph Auslander the Consultant in Poetry
to the Library of Congress.
Each year, the Librarian of Congress
makes the one-year appointments,
although several have been reappointed.
Congress in 1985 changed the title to
Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry, and
the job includes a $35,000 annual stipend
that is privately funded, and a few duties
such as giving lectures.
The nation’s 19th Poet Laureate is
Natasha Trethewey.
Congdon said tonight’s poetry ceremony isn’t all about him.
“I’m going to try to make it brief; I
understand there are other readings after
me,” Congdon said. “It’s about 25 minutes,
short pieces from my work that are easy to
understand.”
Congdon landed in Key West in 1959,
after his vacation to Cuba abruptly ended
with Fidel Castro’s New Year’s revolution that soon made him dictator of the
Communist nation.
He divides his time between Key West
and Fire Island, N.Y. and describes his
approach to writing as anything but academic.
“I never wrote to document anything,”
Congdon said. “I wrote when I felt moved
to and I feel that’s the proper impulse,
not to write it because you want to write
a poem but because you’re disturbed
or thankful and that you learn from the
poem why you are writing it. You do not
dictate what the poem is supposed to
be.”
Congdon started writing when he was in
the third grade.
“I was writing terrible poetry,” he said.
“Forced rhyme.”
Born in West Chester, Penn., Congdon
grew up in Old Mystic, Conn. the youngest
of three children during the Depression.
He recalls his parents scrimping for meals
but said he was too young to understand
the gravity of poverty.
Drafted into the Army during World War
II, Congdon served for three years and
went to Columbia University on the G.I.
Bill.
Congdon subscribes to the “a writer
writes” philosophy of success and doesn’t
believe in taking courses or trying to teach
poetry writing.
“There’s a magic to it after, say, 10
years,” he said. “It helps if you can’t do
anything else. I’m inept at everything
except I’ve got a knowledge of poetry.
You learn by doing it. The secret is to
put it aside and come back to it as a
stranger. Then you see the faults where
the language doesn’t flow.”

they didn’t get out.”
The 13-foot jump was a personal
record for Vinson and the qualifying spot keeps the Conchs’ streak
alive of having at least one athlete
advance to the state meet every
season since the program began in
1999.
“I was hoping he would use this
meet as a stepping stone to the
state meet,” said Perkins. “We were
concentrating on getting through
and we were able to get him on
another pole which allowed him to
get higher and it worked out really
well. Now, he goes on to the state
meet and there will be tough competition there.”
While Vinson made it through,
several of his teammates had top
performances, but failed to finish
in the top four of their event, which
are the qualifying spots for the state
meet.
Rachel Dietrich set a personal
record in the girls pole vault, with a
jump of 10 feet, which left her tied
for fourth place. However, because
it took her more jumps to reach her
qualifying height, the Lady Conchs’
senior finished the day in fifth
place, just shy of a state qualifying
spot.

KWHS ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
Ruggiano home run in 9th
sends Miami past the Reds
BY JOE KAY
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Justin Ruggiano
wasn’t thinking of anything dramatic. All he wanted to do was avoid
looking bad against one of baseball’s
hardest throwers.
Ruggiano waited for a high fastball from Aroldis Chapman and got
it, connecting for a solo homer in
the ninth inning that sent the Miami
Marlins to a 2-1 victory on Friday
night and snapped the Cincinnati
Reds’ winning streak at four games.
Stunning all around for the
Marlins, who have the worst record
in the majors at 4-13 and had managed a total of only four homers
combined — also worst in the
majors — when Ruggiano came to
the plate in the ninth.
“The one thing I didn’t want to
do is get beat on a high fastball,”
Ruggiano said.
Cincinnati’s spotless closer threw
one 94 mph and Ruggiano was right
on it, driving a 3-1 pitch to center
field for his third homer of the season. No other Marlin has more than
one.
He may have gotten a little help
from the setting — Great American
Ball Park is one of the most homerfriendly in the majors.
“Hitting it here, I knew it had a
chance,” said Ruggiano, who homered for the second straight game
at Great American. “If it’s a different
ballpark — in our ballpark — I don’t
think I’d be taking a right-hand turn
(after crossing home).”
Chapman (2-1) hadn’t allowed a
run in his eight previous appearances, giving up only three hits while
fanning 13. It was only the seventh
homer Chapman has allowed during his four seasons in the majors.

player, who had an outstanding performance, to Preston. Preston then
chooses the best student athlete
that week.
Vinson, a junior on the school’s
track team, was selected for his
outstanding performance at the
Vinson
District 16-2A track meet, clearing
12 feet for first place in the pole
vault.
The award was created to honor outstanding athletes
who contribute to team sports at KWHS and is sponsored
by Papa John’s Pizza, First State Bank of the Florida Keys,
Island 107 radio and Niles Sales and Service.
often. That guy took a
good pitch to get it to
3-1. He hit a high fastball, trying to catch up
to it.”
Lefthander
Mike
Dunn (1-0) retired the
last two batters in the
eighth. Steve Cishek
gave up a hit in the
ninth while earning the
Marlins’ first save of
the season.
“It all came together perfect
tonight,” manager Mike Redmond
said.
Nick Green had three singles and
scored the Marlins’ first run on a
raw, wet night. It was 46 degrees at
the first pitch, and showers moved
through during the game. Marlins
right fielder Giancarlo Stanton wore
a ski mask under his cap.
Reds starter Mat Latos remained
winless in four starts this season,
which include two blown saves
behind him. He allowed one run on
six hits and struck out 10, fanning
pinch-hitter Greg Dobbs with runners on second and third to end the
Marlins’ seventh inning and keep
it tied.
Marlins starter Kevin Slowey
remained winless in the majors
since 2010, a streak that includes 10
losses, several injuries and very little
help from his offense. The Marlins
were shut out in his first two starts
this season, and managed only one
run in his third — after he’d left the
game.
This time, the major leagues’
least-productive offense got two
runners thrown out at the plate and
managed one run while Slowey was
in the game. He left after six innings,
having allowed four hits.
“This is certainly one of the best
stretches I’ve had, feeling-wise,”
Slowey said. “Nothing is bothering
KEYSNEWS.COM — AND SPORTS TOO
me.”
Slowey held down an offense
that had scored 11 runs in each of
its last two games. Shin-Soo Choo
opened the Reds’ first with a triple
and scored on Joey Votto’s sacrifice
fly. That was it for Cincinnati.
By contrast, the Marlins got
chances against Latos and wasted
them.
Miami got him a run in the third,
but could have had more. Nick
Green and Donovan Solano singled,
and Slowey advanced them with
a sacrifice bunt. Placido Polanco
singled to right for one run, but
Solano was thrown out at home by
Jay Bruce.
“We haven’t scored a ton of runs,”
Redmond said. “We’re trying to be
aggressive in situations when we
can be aggressive.”
Juan Pierre opened the sixth with
a double and advanced on a fly out.
He was out at the plate when he
tried to score on Stanton’s grounder
to shortstop Zack Cozart with the
infield drawn in. Pierre lowered his
shoulder, but catcher Ryan Hanigan
held on after making the tag.
NOTES: The Marlins designed
struggling reliever John Maine for
assignment and called up RH Tom
Koehler from Triple-A New Orleans,
where he was a starter. He’ll move
into Maine’s role as a long reliever
for now....

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. —
Outgoing North Carolina chancellor Holden Thorp says presidents are often ill-equipped to
run big-time sports programs
and should give more control
to their athletic directors.
Thorp spoke Friday during a
campus forum about balancing athletics and academics.
Thorp says the “presidentialcontrol idea has sort of gotten away from us” and that the
model hasn’t prevented corruption or the money-driven
culture of college sports.

Chiefs say Dolphins can talk to Albert’s agent Halladay helps Phils
BY DAVE SKRETTA
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City
Chiefs have had ongoing discussions
with Branden Albert while also giving the
Miami Dolphins permission to speak with
representatives of the left tackle.
General manager John Dorsey said
Friday that the Chiefs haven’t talked to the
Dolphins the last couple days, and he has
not given the Dolphins permission to do
any medical examinations on Albert that
would indicate a trade is imminent.
The Chiefs are reportedly seeking a second-round pick for Albert, who received
the franchise tag from the team and has
already signed a contract that will pay
him about $9.3 million.
“All along, I’ve said I will try to explore
every opportunity,” Dorsey said. “I’ve
tried to talk to the agent. Whatever I say
to the agent, I’m sure he’s passing it on to
Branden.”
Albert has said he is seeking a long-term
contract, and the two sides were not close
to a deal before the deadline for franchising players. So after the Chiefs wrapped
up long-term deals with pending freeagent wide receiver Dwayne Bowe and
punter Dustin Colquitt, they opted to use
the tag on Albert, who has spent his entire
career in Kansas City.
Dorsey said he’s been in continuous
conversations with Albert’s agent, Todd
France, but the potential for a new deal
seems to have been replaced by a potential trade. The Chiefs, who have the first
overall pick in the NFL draft for the first
time, sent their second-round choice to

Despite claims of fraud,
Browns owner standing fast
BY ERIK SCHELZIG
The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. —
Cleveland Browns owner
and Pilot Flying J CEO Jimmy
Haslam on Friday again denied
any wrongdoing and said he
wasn’t stepping aside, even as
federal authorities alleged that
he was aware of a widespread
scheme to defraud customers
of the truck stop chain.
According to court documents, sales team members
said Haslam, who is the older
brother of Tennessee Gov. Bill
Haslam, was aware of at least
some instances of employees withholding diesel price
rebates and discounts from
Pilot customers to boost the
company’s profits and sales
commissions.
Haslam would not answer
a reporter’s question about
whether he had been involved
in meetings where rebate fraud
was discussed. He shrugged
off suggestions he might step
down.
“I thought to myself, ‘Well,
why would I do that?’ Candidly,
I haven’t done anything wrong,
No. 1,” Haslam said at the
company’s headquarters in
Knoxville. “No. 2, if there’s ever
a time the company needs our
leadership, it’s right now.”
Leaders of the sales team
derided some clients as unsophisticated, lazy and undeserving of rebates, according to
transcripts of secretly recorded
conversations.
FBI special agent Robert H.
Root said in an affidavit that
the practice was known by a
variety of euphemisms including “jacking the discount,”
“manual rebates,” and “screwing” the customer.
No charges have been filed
in the case. Pilot, a privatelyheld company that posted $29
billion in revenues in 2012, is
the largest diesel retailer in the
country.
Haslam said the investigation was focused on a “a small
percentage of our overall diesel fuel business.” He did not
address any specific allegations made in the affidavit,
though he appeared to take
issue with some of the crude

language used by members of
his senior sales team quoted in
the transcripts.
“The color, if you will, of the
comments were certainly not
the way we conduct ourselves
at Pilot Flying J,” he said.
While the affidavit doesn’t
specify how much money or
how many customers were
involved, it makes clear the
fraud was widespread.
Bring on the behemoths for the draft
BY BARRY WILNER
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Bring on the behemoths.
The guys who throw the football usually
dominate the spotlight heading into the
NFL draft. This year, it’s the big bodies
who protect those prized quarterbacks
who are front and center.
As are the players whose main purpose is
to find the QB and get him on the ground.
What the 2013 draft might lack in glamour — no Andrew Luck, RG3 or Trent
Richardson — and, other than the fate
of Manti Te’o, mystique, it balances out
with beef. Don’t be shocked if the first
four names called Thursday night by
Commissioner Roger Goodell come from
the trenches: Tackles Luke Joeckel of Texas
A&M and Eric Fisher of Central Michigan;
defensive end Dion Jordan of Oregon; and
defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd of Florida.
Kansas City will begin the selections, and
new coach Andy Reid believes there’s so
much focus on offensive tackles because
there’s no other clear-cut No. 1 prospect.
“This is what I think: They’ve been fairly
safe picks over the years,” Reid said. “So if
it comes down to equal here or there, and
you have to choose, it might be a fairly
safe pick. The percentages, with that position — you evaluate the success rate with
all the positions, you’ll come back to the
offensive line and say, ‘Yeah, that’s a fairly
safe pick, offensive tackle.”

One For The Home Folks
Celtics try to give Boston a lift against Knicks
BY BRIAN MAHONEY
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Doc Rivers’ phone
rang sometime around 6 a.m. Friday,
a concerned Boston Celtics owner
calling to check on his coach and
team.
The Celtics were already safely in
New York, but forgive Steve Pagliuca
for forgetting. This is a sad, confusing and chaotic time in Boston, and
nobody is thinking about basketball
first.
But the Celtics have a game to play
today (3 p.m., ABC), the opener of
their playoff series against the Knicks,
and if they can provide a boost to their
struggling city with some postseason
success, that gives them even more
motivation in their rare role as an
underdog.
“I think when you go through tragedy as a city you kind of look for
something to cling on,” said longtime
Celtics star Paul Pierce, “and really I
believe that the city of Boston lives
and dies with our sports teams and
they’re going to be watching closely.
And you know there’s just a sense of
pride about the city and a sense of
pride about this team to go out there
and kind of play well and to do the
best we can for the city in the wake of
the tragedy.”
The Celtics’ final home game of
the regular season was to be Tuesday
night, but that was canceled after
three people were killed in the Boston
Marathon bombings. They played at
Toronto on Wednesday night and then
came to New York, watching news
reports Friday morning that showed

smiles during Wednesday’s game in
Toronto.
their city being virtually shut down
while authorities hunted for one of
the suspects (who was caught Friday
evening).
Many people might switch away
from the news coverage today looking
for a diversion, and the Celtics know
their performance might make a difference to some of them.
“I know it doesn’t hurt. I don’t know
it if helps or not,” Rivers said. “Listen,
for some people a basketball game’s
not going to matter. Some people, just
the joy of the sport and, you know, the
victory and that, will help people. It’ll
help people heal.”
The Knicks know all about playing
for a hurting city. They opened their
season days after SuperStorm Sandy
devastated the New York area, and
their emotionally charged 104-84 rout
of Miami at Madison Square Garden
jump-started them on the way to their
first Atlantic Division title since 199394.
“I don’t even know how to put it
into words, but you just wish those
families nothing but the best,” Knicks
coach Mike Woodson said. “But you
know Boston has always been a sports
town, so they’ll rally around it and try
to figure it out as they move up the
road.”
The Celtics swept the Knicks in a
first-round series two years ago. This
time, New York is the No. 2 seed after
ending Boston’s five-year reign as division champion and won three of the
four meetings in the regular season.
Rivers downplayed the regular-season results, noting the Celtics dominated Atlanta during the 2007-08 season, only to be forced to seven games
in the first round. But the Knicks
clearly have gained confidence as
they try to win a postseason series for
the first time since 2000.
“It’s not going to be an easy series,
we know that, but at the same time it’s
a series that we’re going to win,” point
guard Raymond Felton said. “We’ve
got home-court advantage, so we’ve
got to take advantage of it.”
With NBA scoring champion
Carmelo Anthony and top sixth-man
candidate J.R. Smith, the Knicks have
been able to crack Boston’s once-stout
defense. But a couple of those Knicks
victories came when Kevin Garnett
rested, so they expect to see a better
Boston team.
But even if forced to play without
starting guard Pablo Prigioni, who
sprained his ankle in the regular-season finale, the Knicks believe they’re
stronger than their teams Boston had
been beating up on for years, especially knowing they get to start at
Madison Square Garden.
“That was our goal to lock down

home court and we did that, and
now we have the opportunity to do
something special, protect our home
court,” Anthony said. “It won’t be easy,
but we’re up for that challenge. We’re
willing to take that challenge and it
starts (today).”
The Boston-New York rivalry is one
of the fiercest in sports, and the teams
had their heated moment in the first
meeting this season, when Anthony
was suspended a game by the NBA
for following Garnett to the Celtics’
team bus to confront him after they
exchanged words during the game.
Pierce loves to hit big shots in
New York and taunt the crowd after.
The Celtics don’t expect anything to
change today, no matter how much
support their city is getting.
“You know, I played here. I know
how crazy, the mindset of a New
Yorker,” said Rivers, a former Knicks
player who heard “Hey. Doc, we love
Boston” at the team hotel.
“But I know what they mean,” he
said. “They mean the city. They ain’t
meaning the Celtics.”
Nuggets out to curtail Stephen Curry Cavs, Mike Brown
BY ARNIE STAPLETON
The Associated Press
DENVER (AP) — Curbing Stephen Curry
and his three-point prowess is job No. 1 for
the Denver Nuggets.
Curry leads the Golden State Warriors
into the Pepsi Center for a first-round
series starting today (5:30 p.m., ESPN) that
many consider the marquee matchup of
the first round because it pits two exciting,
high-octane teams that love to run.
Might as well dust off the old red, white
and blue basketball from the old ABA as
much as everyone’s expecting these two
teams to get up and down the court.
While the Nuggets pile on points in the
paint better than any team in the league,
the Warriors do their damage from the
fringe. They led the NBA with a 40.3 threepoint percentage.
Curry, storming back from two years of
ankle problems, shot his way into NBA history by sinking 272 3-pointers this season,
three more than former record-holder Ray
Allen had for Boston in 2005-06.
On Friday, he became the first Warriors
player since Chris Mullen in November of
1990 to win Western Conference Player
of the Month honors after averaging 25.4
points, 8.1 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 2.13
steals while shooting 46.5 percent from
the field and 44.4 percent from threepoint range in eight games in the month
of April.
“It may be genetic,” said Nuggets coach
George Karl, who coached Curry’s dad,
Dell Curry, in the late 1990s in Milwaukee.
“His dad was a great shooter and it’s amazing, he probably is a better shooter.”
All the attention the younger Curry
attracted this season freed up his backcourt mate, Klay Thompson, who sank 211
long-range baskets.
That’s 483 between them, the most by
any duo in league history.
The Nuggets will send a wave of defenders at Curry to cool his hot hand, including Ty Lawson starting out and including
healthy doses of Andre Iguodala, their best
perimeter defender.
DON RYAN /The Associated Press
Golden State’s Klay Thompson, right, who
made 211 long-range baskets this season,
drives to the basket against Portland’s J.J.
Hickson Wednesday in Portland, Ore.
“You’ve just got to be aware of where
the shooters are,” Iguodala said. “Good
defense can be beat sometimes by threepoint shooters. But if you play the percentages, make them take tough shots, contest
the shots, the percentages kind of fall
toward the defense.”
Lawson said he wants to force Curry
to put the ball on the floor and drive to
the hoop to keep him from finding any
rhythm.
“Just be physical with him. He wants to
shoot, so don’t give him too much space.
Just make him drive,” Lawson said. “Even
when he does drive, he wants to step back
and get a jump shot.”
And when he steps up behind the arc ...
“I’ve got to be out there,” Lawson said.
“I know his range. I’ve been watching his
game and his range is unlimited. Once
he crosses halfcourt, I’ve just got to be no
more than one step away from him.”
After having problems with his now
twice-surgically repaired right ankle the
last two seasons, Curry had a breakout
year.
He was a cumulative 16 of 25 from longrange against the Nuggets this season,
but three of those games were played in
November and one in January, so Denver’s
3-1 series win isn’t much of a gauge.
Still, Curry got a feel for how Denver
likes to defend him.
“They switched a lot, because they have
the personnel to do it,” he said. “With Ty
Lawson, Andre Miller and their wings, they
have so many wings, Iguodala, (Corey)
Brewer, (Evan) Fournier’s playing now.
Wilson Chandler is able to switch. One
through four, they can do it. Not sure what
they’ll try when we start out the series. You
just have to be ready for everything.”
If the Nuggets succeed in making him
miss, “we still have other guys that can get
involved,” Warriors center Andrew Bogut
said. “If they’re going to focus on Steph,
even though he’s our best shooter and
our best offensive scorer, I think we have
enough threats out there where Steph is
happy to be a distributor and get a lot of
assists, which is generally what he does
when teams do that.”
To counter the attention Curry commands, coach Mark Jackson plays him off
the ball at times, especially at the end of
games, when Jarrett Jack comes in at point
guard and the Warriors go to a three-guard
lineup.
If the Nuggets can disrupt Golden State’s
shots, the key for them becomes rebounding, which jumpstarts their fastbreak barrage, something that would be a lot easier
with forward Kenneth Faried on the floor
to keep Golden State’s All-Star forward
David Lee in check.
Faried, Denver’s top rebounder, has
been out a week after spraining his left
knee against Portland on Sunday. He practiced on a limited basis Friday, running a
few plays in a scrimmage, walking through
a handful of other plays and running “gassers” with the rest of the team afterward.
“I don’t think that decision can be made
today,” Karl said of Faried’s availability for
today. “Got to wait until tomorrow.”

CLEVELAND — The Cavaliers are seeking a respected, defensive-minded, hard-working teacher to be their next coach.
Those words describe Mike Brown, their former coach.
He could be their new one, too.
Brown, who along with superstar LeBron James led the Cavs
to their greatest heights before he was fired three years ago, is
one of the candidates
the team intends to
speak with as it looks to
replace Byron Scott. The
Cavs are in the initial
stages of their coaching search after firing
Scott, who went 64-166
in three seasons.

said following practice
on Friday as the Miami Heat prepared for their playoff series
opener against Milwaukee. “It should be real.”
Brown is close friends with Cavaliers general manager Chris
Grant, who would not answer a direct question about the
team’s former coach during a news conference to announce
Scott’s dismissal on Thursday. Grant, though, made it clear the
Cavs need to improve defensively and would bring in a coach
“who is strong defensively with proven systems.”
Brown’s forte is defense and during his time with Cleveland
the Cavs developed into a sound defensive team, but one that
relied on James to carry them offensively.
Grant and his staff spent Friday going over their list of potential candidates, which could include college coaches, NBA
assistants and former head coaches who have been out of the
league.
Scott Skiles, Stan Van Gundy, Avery Johnson and Mike
Dunleavy are among the former NBA coaches who may be
on the radar of Grant and owner Dan Gilbert, who will have
an active role in the search to find Scott’s successor. The Cavs
will also scour a long list of up-and-coming assistants like
Brian Shaw (Indiana), David Fizdale (Miami) and Mike Malone
(Golden State), who previously worked on Brown’s staff in
Cleveland and is highly regarded.
Grant would like to get a coach in place as soon as possible,
but won’t rush the process.
Heat looking ahead, not chasing back at 2012 success
BY TIM REYNOLDS
The Associated Press
MIAMI — A year ago, the Miami
Heat were chasing something.
This time around, everyone is chasing them.
And in simplest terms, that’s the
taproot of the philosophy Heat coach
Erik Spoelstra began trying to instill in
his team way back in September, even
before the first practice of training
camp. Only four franchises since 1969
— only five in league history, period — have won back-to-back NBA
championships, proof that successfully defending a title is much tougher
than winning one in the first place.
Such is the challenge the Heat will
face starting Sunday (7 p.m., TNT),
when they play host to the Milwaukee
Bucks in Game 1 of an Eastern
Conference first-round series.
“It’s a small group to win back to
back because you have to have that
same resilience,” Heat guard Dwyane
Wade said. “We had resilience last year
in that no matter what happened, we
were going to get through it. Some way,
somehow, we were going to win that
championship. Do we have that same
resilience again? That’s the unknown.”
Finding that proverbial chip for
their shoulders might be tougher than
anything else the Heat have faced this
season.
They got their rings and then went
out and posted the best record in the
league, 66-16. They won 27 straight
games along the way, won 40 times by
double figures, then finished the regular season with an eight-game winning streak — the longest current run
in the NBA — despite being without
Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh
for many of those games.
James missed time with a right
hamstring strain, which he said provided him with a break that he didn’t
even know he needed.

Neil Armstrong, in a
graduation speech at the
University of Southern
California in 2005, said,
“I hope you become
comfortable with the use of
logic without being deceived
into concluding that logic
will inevitably lead you to
the correct conclusion.”
At the bridge table, the
use of logic should lead to
the correct conclusion.
In today’s deal, South is in
three no-trump. West leads
the heart seven: nine, ace,
eight. What should East do
next?
First, let’s have East check
the high-card points -- our
theme for the week. South
showed 15 to 17, dummy
has 10, and East holds nine.
That leaves four to six points
for West.
Next, it is common
in no-trump to return
partner’s lead, and many
players would lead back the
heart jack without further
thought. Here, South would
gallop home with at least
one overtrick.
East should also read
the lead; what can he learn
about his partner’s heart
holding?
Usually, West would lead
fourth-highest from his
longest and strongest. So
East should apply the Rule
of Eleven. Seven from 11 is
four. This means that there
should be four hearts higher
than the seven in the North,
East and South hands
combined. But at the first
trick, East saw five higher
hearts: dummy’s nine and
10, his ace and jack, and
South’s eight. West cannot
have led fourth-highest.
Instead, logic says that the
heart seven must have been
top of nothing.
If South has the heart
king and queen, there is no
logic in returning that suit.
Instead, East should shift to
the spade queen. Here, that
works beautifully, gaining
the first five tricks for the
defense.

GIRL FEARS SHE’LL LOSE TOUCH
WITH BEST FRIEND FAR AWAY
DEAR ABBY: I am a 16-year-old
girl from Serbia. I have been in U.S.
for two years and I’m studying English
in an ESL class. I read your column
and could use some help to solve my
problem because I am very upset.
I have known my best friend,
“Vanessa,” for a year and a half.
She is my age and we were very
close. She had to leave school
because her family moved. I
can’t visit her because she is
too far away. I cried because
I don’t know if she is going to
remember me or if she is going
to forget all about me. I’m so
afraid I am going to lose her.
Can you help me? -- SAD IN BUFFALO
DEAR SAD: You are obviously
doing well in your ESL studies, and
for that I congratulate you. Because
you and Vanessa no longer live close
does not mean that you can’t still be
friends. Although she has moved to
a different geographical location, you
can maintain a friendship because she
is as near as your phone or computer.
Because you want to still be a part
of her life, keep her updated on what
is going on in your life and ask her
to do the same. That is the way longdistance relationships are maintained,
and some of them have been known to
last a lifetime.
DEAR ABBY: I have been dating
my boyfriend, “Adam,” for three years.
Although we are young, we are serious
about our relationship. Not too long
after we started dating, Adam began
staying over at my house on most
weekends. I live with my mom, who is
47.
For the past year when Adam comes
to visit, my mom has been coming out of
her bedroom in her bra and panties, for
the most part exposed. She also makes

flirtatious comments to Adam that I
feel are completely inappropriate.
I have tried talking to her about it,
letting her know how uncomfortable
Adam and I and some of my friends are
about it. I hoped she would understand,

flirting and underdressing.
What can I do about this? I’m

talking to her hasn’t helped,

over less often. When you meet with
your friends, do it at someone else’s
house. And if you can afford to move
elsewhere, you should consider it.
DEAR ABBY: I am a single mother
of a 12-year-old boy. Three or four of
his friends are constantly over at our
house, and I feel obligated to feed and/
or entertain them. Their parents don’t
send money for their meals and often
don’t even call to check on them, so
they are left spending the night here.
I don’t mind the boys staying with us,
but I don’t think I should be expected to
pay for their food and fun or feel guilty
if my son and I eat and they don’t. Any
suggestions? -- SINGLE MOM IN THE
SOUTH
DEAR SINGLE MOM: Call the boys’
parents and have a friendly chat with
them. I agree that the current situation
isn’t fair to you, and because the boys
are at your home so often, their parents
should be chipping in. Alternatively,
start sending the boys home at dinner
time.
