The County Commission on Wednesday gave the County Attorney’s Office permission to research filing a lawsuit against the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Complete forecast on Page 2A and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and to issue its findings at the board’s Feb. 16 meeting. One option would be claiming that Fish & Wildlife is not doing enough to protect endangered species and their habitat, and that the agency, not the county, should be responsible for enforcing federal laws to that end, Chief Assistant County Attorney Bob Shillinger said. A settlement agreement that U.S. Judge K. Michael Moore accepted last week — ending a 20-year lawsuit several environmental groups filed against FEMA and Fish & Wildlife — makes the county responsible for ensuring that property owners’ development requests comply with federal rules designed to protect endangered species. If the county refuses to accept that role, FEMA can deny Keys residents federally subsidized coverage through the National Flood Insurance Program. Moore accepted the settlement agreement without allowing the county to intervene in the lawsuit, even though it leaves the county and its taxpayers vulnerable to costly property rights lawsuits, commonly called “takings cases.” The settlement agreement allows the federal government to avoid liability. Commissioners have likened the issue to FEMA’s downstairs enclosure policy, in which the agency See FEMA, page 5A FLORIDA KEYS Questions remain over bayside bike path RUNNING OUT OF ROAD 3 scams hit Keys KEY LARGO: Discussion over a plan to use $1.8 million to begin a bayside pedestrian-bicycle path centered on its ultimate cost, maintenance plans, impact on parking at certain businesses and whether it should even be considered.

The 50-something retired Coast Guard officer, who is single, bottle-feeds him in the daytime and wakes up late at night to rock the 4-month-old to sleep. It’s not the kind of decision most retirees would make, but Good said someone needs to help Florida Keys families who need time to fix problems in their marriage or home environment. Good is a foster mother for one of the 180 children in the Keys who have been removed from their homes due to substance abuse, domestic violence or other difficulties in the nest.

Two young men in their mid-20s knocked on Becky Klapil’s door last week, selling magazine subscriptions for a supposed charity. “I was trying to make dinner and had a toddler talking away, so I went ahead and bought one so I could get back to what I was doing,” Klapil said. She bought a $25 subscription to Interview magazine, but as she went back to her work, she felt something wasn’t right. “The guy was talking a mile a minute and he was covered in tattoos,” she said. She went online and found the company with which the two men said they were affiliated, HP Consulting Inc., which had numerous Better Business Bureau complaints against it in Colorado, where the company is reportedly based. She also found one of the men’s Facebook profiles and used the website to contact his mother. “The guy’s mom said she is sending me my money back. She also told me her son lied about being in college,” Klapil said. “The whole thing just sounds like a scam to me and I wanted to get the word out.

Some of the comments will be published daily. “When will outgoing Mosquito Control chief Ed Fussell pay $12,000 for the TV contract he signed? Take it out of his last paycheck.” “Kudos to the people who keep the term ‘kudos’ alive.” “The grocery stores need to take steps to get rid of plastic bags. Even the baggers are guilty of double-bagging or putting one item in a bag. God hates bags.” “There is a new citizens committee in town. The People Without Jobs (PWOJOBS) are usually relative newcomers to town with a great deal of time on their hands, and so appear at nearly all government hearings and meetings. They love to come up with really silly suggestions on how Key West should be run and get in the way of any real progress. Kudos to the PWOJOBS.” “Hey [city of Key West], tell your employees it is illegal to park in a fire lane, in front of fire doors or in front of a fire hydrant, no matter who you work for. I am taking pictures and license plate numbers of every city vehicle I see illegally parked. If we the taxpayers can’t do it, neither can you.” “There are truly homeless and needy people in Key West, as in most places where humans live. It isn’t a service to anyone to encourage it as a lifestyle, though. Sometimes it does need to be delivered with tough love. And a dose of tough love for the more fortunate — it is a disgrace to not give a hand up when able. In today’s world, fortunes come and go with the wind.

KEY WEST 73/67 MARATHON 74/67 CITIZEN STAFF KEY WEST — A homeless man has apparently figured out how to shoplift an item as large as a baked chicken by hiding it in his shirt sleeve, reports say. The 59-year-old man was arrested on a charge of misdemeanor theft. Officers arrived at Fausto’s Food Palace on White Street at 11:40 a.m. Thursday to find owner Alton Weekley detaining the man who told police he saw the man take a baked chicken and put it in the sleeve of his long-sleeved T-shirt, reports say. The man then took a candy bar to the clerk and paid for it while a Key West police detective stood in line behind him eyeing a “large bump” in the man’s shirt sleeve, reports say. It was unclear in the report if the detective helped detain the man with the owner or not, but the homeless man admitted taking the chicken, because he was hungry and did not have the money for pay for it, reports say. Weekley told the officer he believes the man shoplifted another item the day before in the same way, but he did not see the man actually put the item in his sleeve in that incident, reports say. 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) 346-TIPS.

TAVERNIER STATE Grieving pet owner on quest to ‘speak dog’ BY STEVE GIBBS Citizen Staff Mary Ayres, 57, is going to great lengths to become a teacher who can help people “speak dog.” The Ocean Pointe winter resident, a surgical technologist and avid fisherwoman, is on a quest to learn how to become a “benevolent leader,” an Alpha female, the leader of the pack, so to speak. Her new endeavor is, in part, a way of coping with the death of her beloved 12-year-old dog, Cheyenne, and a way of learning the lessons she needs to avoid the situation she and her husband created that led to a tragedy she can’t forget. “We partially retired and brought Cheyenne — our Australian cattle dog — with us here from our permanent home in the country in upstate New York,” she says. “Even though we loved her dearly, friends and family were afraid of her. When they would visit we would have to lock her in the bedroom. When we lived in a remote area we could control the situation, but when we moved to Ocean Pointe there were a couple of scary incidents. Once she pulled out of her collar and went after a man on the stairway. There are children here and we were afraid she would hurt someone.” Their years of tolerating bad behavior had ingrained within the dog an aggressive sense of entitlement, so much so that Cheyenne would growl and misbehave when Ayers and husband Lynn, 62, showed each other affection. “One morning my husband, Cheyenne and I were walking to Harry Harris Park on the bike path. An older woman was approaching us and, as she passed, Cheyenne turned and gave her a little nip on the back of her leg,” Ayres says, recalling the painful moment. “It was the end of the world for me.” Because the aging dog was also suffering from crippling arthritis, Ayres said she made the decision to put her to sleep the day after she nipped the woman’s leg. “It was a dangerous situation and I was devastated, but I knew it was the correct thing to do. I did not want to risk her hurting someone else,” she said. Still, Ayres said her emotions were “raw” following the experience. A month later she was in the library and came across “The Dog Listener,” by Jan Fennell, a British writer whose book gave Ayres insight into why Cheyenne acted the way she did. “After reading the book I totally understood why Cheyenne did the things she did, such as charging the front door when the bell rang, becoming aggressive if anyone came too close to me, claiming the bed as hers and not wanting to be bothered while sleeping,” she said. Dogs, as descendants of wolves, are a functioning member of a community and conduct themselves according to their role within the pack. What Ayres now understands is Founder of Neb. charity hopes to save retreat THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Contributed photo Tavernier’s Mary Ayres is studying to become a ‘dog listener’ after a bad experience with her Australian cattle dog, Cheyenne. that Cheyenne was the leader of their family pack and was trying to fulfill a role for which she was not equipped. Ayres’ research took her on a journey to Yellowstone National Park where she met Dr. Nathan Varley and his wife, Linda Thurston, who are experts on wolves and conduct an annual wolf census for Defenders of Wildlife. There she met up with Fennell who was at Yellowstone to learn about the wild wolves. Whether a dog’s pack consists of itself and its owner, or a large family of humans and other animals, a pecking order must be established and adhered to at all times, Fennell told Ayres. “Dogs may believe they are the elected leader of the pack when humans with whom they live send out signals that reelect them to that role on a daily basis,” she said, quoting Fennell. “Alpha males and females are responsible for the members of the pack, just as we are responsible for our pets. That is why Cheyenne nipped at the woman. She was protecting us. The Alpha male and female are the only ones allowed to mate, that is why Cheyenne didn’t like it when Lynn and I hugged and kissed.” The meeting with Fennell was a revelation for Ayres. “My last night in Yellowstone I cried myself to sleep because I realized my dog was the leader of our ‘pack.’ She was doing what she thought she was supposed to do. We unknowingly put her in a position as the Alpha female, an untenable role that she could not have fulfilled,” Ayres said. Now, with this knowledge and thoughts of another dog in their future, Ayres is embarking on a trip to England in mid-March to take a three-day advanced “Dog Listening” class that Fennell’s son, Tony, will teach. “I am nervous about this because I have never traveled outside the country before,” she admits. “But I am determined to learn. I just want to be the benevolent leader.” Her next dog, no matter what breed she chooses, will be happier, Ayres said. It will not have the burden of being the Alpha in the family. She will see to that. [email protected] CRAWFORD, Neb. — An Omaha-based nonprofit that helps injured veterans and their families has been forced to sell its land near Crawford to pay a $1.7 million judgment in a trademark infringement dispute. Wounded Warriors Family Support bought the secluded 80-acre parcel in 2007 for about $146,000. The charity planned to build a $5 million retreat, with six cabins, a lodge, a swimming pool, horseback riding, hiking and fishing. Instead, the land in the northwest corner of the state will be put up for a sheriff’s auction Feb. 4 at the Dawson County courthouse. The nonprofit’s founder, Marine Corps Reserve Col. John Folsom, told radio station KQSK that he hopes to salvage plans for the retreat. He plans to bid on the property at next month’s auction. The Jacksonville, Fla.based Wounded Warrior Project Inc., which also raises money for gifts for injured soldiers and whose name is protected by trademark, claimed Wounded Warriors Family Support was capitalizing on their close names. Wounded Warriors Family Support previously went by Wounded Warriors Inc. but changed its name amid the court battle. In 2009, Wounded Warrior Project was awarded $425,000 under Nebraska’s Consumer Protection Act and $1.3 million for unjust enrichment. Folsom appealed to the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals but was turned down earlier this month. Wounded Warriors Family Support began in March 2003 when a group started raising money to buy a television for injured U.S. soldiers at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany. It now offers vacations to injured veterans and their families and owns condos in Orlando, Fla., and Galveston, Texas. The Nebraska group changed its name from Wounded Warriors Inc. to Wounded Warriors Family Support in 2008 and surrendered the Web address that identified it as Wounded Warriors Inc. Florida’s Wounded Warrior Project, which also goes by WWP Inc., was founded in July 2003 to raise money to help injured soldiers. Its activities include making and distributing backpacks filled with clothing, toiletries and luxury items such as playing cards and CD players, according to court documents. The Florida organization registered its name and logo as trademarks in September 2005, which prevented their use by other groups. Both groups are registered as nonprofit organizations. CITIZEN OF THE DAY KEY LARGO Questions remain about bayside pathway project Discussion over a plan to use $1.8 million to begin a bayside pedestrian-bicycle path centered on its ultimate cost, maintenance plans, impact on parking at certain businesses and whether it should even be considered. Some attending the Key Largo Federation of Homeowners Associations meeting suggested that the county funds — impact fees earmarked for a previous project that was rendered unnecessary — should be used to improve the existing path on the ocean side of the Overseas Highway. That, however, isn’t an option for the state-owned Commissioner Sylvia Murphy and County Administrator Roman Gastesi. “We are hoping for additional grants for design and construction.

CLARIN/PUBLISHER TOM TUELL/EDITOR RALPH MORROW/SPORTS EDITOR THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ MONDAY, JANUARY 24, 2011 OPINION ED BLOCK CHARLIE BRADFORD KEN DOMANSKI SHIRLEY FREEMAN TODD GERMAN It will not be easy to cut defense spending F ifty years ago this week, just days before President Dwight D. Eisenhower left office, he made a speech warning of the distorting political and financial power of the “military-industrial complex.” Today, with the United States facing a financial crisis, it’s important to remember Eisenhower’s warning and to look at military spending rationally. Too often, objections to reductions or changes in military spending are about jobs and the clout of corporate lobbyists, not about making America safer. The militaryindustrial complex has grown stronger since Eisenhower coined the phrase in 1961 and, since that time, it’s expanded to become a military-industrialcongressional complex. In recent years, Americans have watched as one or more branches of the military have said they did not want or need a particular fighter jet or other piece of military hardware, but members of Congress fought to keep the program alive. The fight was over jobs in a state or congressional district — and it was further fueled by campaign contributions from defense contractors. The debate is rarely about national defense and the most efficient expenditure of taxpayer dollars; it’s about money and jobs and re-election. Today’s fiscal realities require that military spending be trimmed. Any serious effort to cut the U.S. budget deficit requires some cuts to entitlement spending — Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — as well as military spending, which at $720 billion a year is the largest part of discretionary spending in the federal budget. The rate of growth of military spending has been stunning. At 56 percent of discretionary spending, the defense budget is twice as large as it was in 2001. And while military threats do exist around the world, it is worth noting that the U.S. spends more on defense than the rest of the world combined. Fiscal reality demands a serious look at military spending. The deficit reduction commission created by President Barack Obama last year suggested, among many other targeted reductions, a $100 billion cut in military spending spread over five years. Some members of Congress, particularly newly elected Republicans with tea party backing, claim that deficit Editorial reduction is their number one priority. Yet some of these same lawmakers say that military spending is off the table. That is not a serious position, if deficit reduction is their goal. Experts suggest that ending the controversial F-35 Joint Strike Fighter would save $300 billion. Other analysts question the need to maintain some 700 bases and other facilities on foreign soil. There are many other areas to look at in the defense budget. Defense Secretary Robert Gates has suggested killing a proposed amphibious assault vehicle program and some personnel cuts, including elimination of the Joint Forces Command in Virginia. There will be debate over Gates’ proposal. But will the argument from members of Congress representing Virginia be about defense and national security, or about jobs and the economic benefits of military spending? In a budget of $720 billion, there have to be significant savings available. But even proposals to make modest cuts in military spending will be fought in Congress. It’s been noted that even liberals such as the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., and now-retired Sen. Chris Dodd, DConn., were aggressive supporters of military spending — when it meant jobs in their states. Given the stubbornly high unemployment figures in the United States, the economic impact of reductions in military spending will be a larger part of the debate than ever, even if critics of the proposed cuts claim it’s about defense. Still, military spending must be examined from the perspective of defense and whether spending is effective at increasing the security of the United States in today’s world. The debate over cuts to military spending should be about defense and national security — not about employment and not about defense contractors’ campaign contributions and lobbying. Eisenhower’s warning in his farewell speech is more true today than in 1961. And coming from a five-star general, his concerns over the power of the military-industrial complex should be taken seriously as Americans watch the coming debate over military spending. —The Butler (Pa.) Eagle Letters to the editor Wounded warriors were treated well in Keys A surge of pride, in myself and my country, stirred within me as I rode my bicycle to meet and ride with my combat-wounded brothers and sisters. This feeling was accentuated as I arrived at VFW Post 10211 in Key Largo. It was stirring with activity as the members prepared breakfast for the 60 participants in the Wounded Warriors Soldier Ride. State Attorney Dennis Ward, Veterans Service Officer Gary Johnson and former Islamorada Mayor Cathi Hill, along with all of the magnanimously noble unsung heroes who made this event happen, will never be forgotten by those who experienced the warmth of their love and kindness. The riders were guided and protected throughout the day during their ride by the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, Florida Highway Patrol, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and Border Patrol. The fire departments, fire-rescue and EMT service stood at the ready at each locale to care for any emergency that might arise. The enthusiastic greeting extended by those assembled at Coral Shores High School was magnificent. The palpable charge of excitement and gratitude energized these cyclists. The very warm reception given by the students and their teachers drew these wounded warriors to personally interact with them. Autographs were gotten, gifts exchanged and memories made. ... Members of the communities that we rode through came out to U.S. 1 and vigorously demonstrated their respect and appreciation for the sacrifices that these men and women had made. These combat-wounded veterans no longer have to retreat into the darkness of their infirmities and dwell in the madness and suffering of their torn bodies and tormented minds. They are not alone, nor will they ever be alone. The beautifully compassionate citizens of the Florida Keys have seen to that. Thank you. John Donnelly Key Largo Health reform law is a financial calamity ... When I read the John Gish letter, I wondered if Shakespeare would have puked over the parallels drawn. Nancy Pelosi called the Tucson shooting a “tragic accident.” Encarta defines tragic as “provoking deep sadness,” and defines accident as “an unplanned and unfortunate event that results in damage, injury, or upset of some kind.” Please notice the operative word “unplanned.” It disqualifies the Pelosi statement, as it was obviously a planned execution by a mentally defective person without a political or moral compass. Pelosi’s statement, the Gish attack on Sarah Palin, the Palin editorial cartoon and the Sunday health care letter by Beverly Welber is strong evidence these folks do not comprehend the subjects they pontificate. Differences in opinion will exist, but when citizens like Pelosi do not understand what in Hades she is saying about the Tucson attempt on Gabrielle Giffords’s life, how can one accept the far more complicated health law so assuredly? It is a financial calamity, approved by herd instinct numb from the neck ups who didn’t read the bill; perhaps they knew they wouldn’t understand it. Nor did they avail themselves to understand the far-reaching repercussions. Oh, I remember; pass it then we’ll see what’s in it. Good Lord! Imbecilic leaders! ... The president’s performance in Arizona was indeed appropriate, as was his excellent speech. The new congressional Republicans will test his mettle and mantel soon and see if we get change we can believe in now the idiots advising him are fleeing the ship of state like rats in a Disney Movie.

ROBERTS “G enormous pressure to produce scoops and attract eyeballs, particularly on the Web. Traffic equals ads, and ads equal revenue. And while speed has always been valued in daily journalism (a craft we practiced for many years, Steve at the New York Times and Cokie at NPR and ABC), the current climate is approaching insanity. As Jim Roberts (no relation), a founding editor of NYTimes. com, put it, we’re immersed in a “1440/7 news cycle,” 1,440 minutes a day, seven days a week. Each minute, according to Brisbane, is “demanding news for delivery to a networked world.” And those demands produce errors. CNN and NPR (among others) made the first mistake, reporting Giffords’ death prematurely, without doublechecking their sources. Other outlets, like the Times and the Post, made the second mistake, simply repeating the information at their websites without confirming it independently. This practice is understandable — they didn’t have their own reporters in Tucson — but ultimately dangerous. And lazy. It’s a cheap way to “feed the beast” without taking responsibility for the accuracy of your own brand. The third mistake was a failure of editing. As Brisbane reported, the Times editor in charge of news alerts initially told her writer not to include Giffords’ death because it had not been confirmed. But when the writer updated his posting, and added the word “killed,” the editor failed to review what he wrote. Speed trumped accuracy. “I should have looked at every change,” admitted the editor, Kathleen McElroy. “Nobody should self-publish,” added Times standards editor Philip Corbett. “Everything should go through an editor. Ideally, it should go through two editors.” Here’s the core of the debate: “Nobody should self-publish” versus “Publish first, edit later.” The second maxim certainly has an allure. It’s faster and cheaper and utilizes “crowd sourcing” and “citizen journalists” to get things right — eventually. Even Jonathan Landman, a digital-media editor at the New York Times, sees the wisdom in this approach. “Readers can and do participate,” he wrote two years ago. “Their participation has a salutary effect on quality — millions of amateur editors catch a lot that a few professional ones miss.” Fair enough. But “publish first, edit later” still bothers us. Call us old-fashioned, but that’s not the way we were trained in the business. We still believe it is the responsibility of professional journalists, not amateurs, to make sure that we produce the fairest, smartest and most comprehensive report possible. Amateurs can help — and journalists who arrogantly ignore their input and resent their scrutiny are plain foolish. But crowd sourcing is no substitute for the careful, diligent process of reporting and editing that should happen before anyone pushes a button and releases information to the world. Corbett is right; we all need editors. And the “journalism of verification” still has a role in a WikiWorld of unedited and unchecked assertion. Mainstream media organizations are struggling to survive. But they cannot do that by abandoning their standards or their principles. News consumers want to trust what they read and see. They still value the concept “edit first, publish later.” Steve Roberts’ new book, “From Every End of This Earth” (HarperCollins), was published in paperback this fall.

Another reason the ranks of foster parents in the Keys must be filled: If a foster parent isn’t available in Monroe County, a child must be moved to a home in Broward or MiamiDade County, Good said. Some Key West children also might find themselves living in a foster home in Tavernier because a foster parent isn’t available locally. Wesley House’s 10-week state foster training program, known as Parent Resource for Information, Development and Education (PRIDE) certification, trains couples to become foster parents, McKenzie said. Prospective foster parents also must undergo background and character screening. Good said the training program is a good way to find out if parents are a good fit for foster care. “It takes dedication,” she said. “It can be frustrating, but it is immensely rewarding to care for a foster child.” More foster parents means more placement options for foster kids, Blomberg said. “The homes in the Keys tend to be small, so we don’t have a lot of four- or five-bedroom homes, which limits how many children a single home can care for,” he said. “We also try to rotate foster parenting to give families a break between foster be reprogrammed. “They said they needed to reprogram machines with Visa and Mastercard, but I contacted our bank here and they found many complaints had been filed against the company,” Stevens said. A few businesses in Big Pine Key also called their chamber to report the company after calling their banks as well, Stevens said. There’s also an e-mail scam reportedly going around the Florida Keys involving a false company claiming to be working with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), indi- cating that the Department of Homeland Security has frozen business accounts and they’re requesting account information, Stevens said. “Call your bank,” Stevens said. “I can’t stress that enough. Don’t respond, just call your bank.” The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office and Key West Police Department have not received any official complaints about the scams, officials said. “It just seems like we are seeing more of this than normal and people need to be aware,” Stevens said.

LAKELAND — Polk County veterans want a new elementary school to be named after a local Marine who was killed in Afghanistan. The problem is, school board members have already voted unanimously to name it after the county’s first female superintendent. Area veterans and residents feel so strongly about the matter that a Facebook page dedicated to naming the school after Marine Cpt. Ron Payne Jr. has more than 1,000 members. Payne, they argue, is a local hero who should be honored. School board lawyer West Bridges says the board is justified in its decision to honor the accomplishments of former superintendent Gail McKinzie, who retired in October. She has since moved to Texas.

Good, who has fostered three children in the past three years, said children need help with unique problems. “It really takes a knack to help children from difficult situations to feel safe,” she said. “It’s worth it, though.

[email protected] STATE Prison inmates toast public-speaking class BY JOSH POLTILOVE The Associated Press ZEPHYRHILLS — Reggie D’Antuono spoke candidly and eloquently, gesticulating and maintaining eye contact. For seven minutes, he talked about the need to properly raise and protect adolescent males. He said his life’s goal is to stop people from victimizing themselves and others. The 41-year-old New Port Richey native has some experience in the matter. He’s an inmate at Zephyrhills Correctional Institution. Since June, a Toastmasters class at the state prison has offered inmates a chance to become better public speakers. “It’s adding to my listening skills, it’s improving my speaking skills and it’s improving me as an individual,” said D’Antuono, convicted of robbery charges in 2005. Twice a month, roughly 20 inmates learn vocabulary, read prepared speeches and answer questions sprung on them. Class goals include making inmates better prepared for job or parole interviews. Many of the inmates, ages 26 to 83, are set for release in the next few years. When Gus Mazorra came to the 650-inmate, all-male prison as warden about a year ago, he saw a lot of older inmates in need of skills to transition into society. The average age of the facility’s inmates is 49 – a dozen years older than the average inmate in Florida prisons. Mazorra set up programs such as Toastmasters and a drama club to help with inmate confidence. The nonprofit Toastmasters organization has thousands of clubs worldwide and offers members a chance to improve their communication skills. James Randolph, a 55-yearold information technology consultant, volunteered to lead the prison’s Toastmasters class. The Brandon resident is a master speaker for Toastmasters. “One of the key things about re-entry is how well are you able to present yourself,” he said of prisoners returning to society. “It’s very key that you’re able to communicate.” At a recent class, some inmates preached, told short stories or read poetry. One suggested getting work published would prove his potential as a job candidate. Larry “Rocky” Sutton, 62, of North Carolina, reminded his audience that when speaking publicly they should avoid dressing sloppily or taking pregnant pauses. “You’ve got to be prepared,” he said. “You’ve got to rehearse this thing. You’ve got to practice it. You’ve got to know your audience. You’ve got to own your audience.” Sutton was sentenced in 1980 to life in prison for firstdegree murder. He said he wants to better himself and hopes the skills he gains will help him with parole. Nehemiah Parsons, 33, of Brooklyn, N.Y., spoke about staying out of prison next time around. He said education is the key. Parsons, who has been serving time for robbery since 2003, said Toastmasters has taught him the art of listening to others. “There are some who think we should be eating bread and water, no classes,” he said. “But some of us are getting back out. You can’t turn a blind eye toward that. We’re going back into the communities we left or into new communities.” D’Antuono agrees. “Everybody makes mistakes. That’s why pencils have erasers,” he said. “I can’t be a better person in their community unless I get better.

Two years into the Obama administration, so-called birthers continue to argue that Obama isn’t a natural-born citizen and that he hasn’t proved he’s constitutionally qualified to be president. Birth records in Hawaii haven’t dissuaded them. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor says he believes Obama is a citizen and that most Americans are beyond that question. “I don’t think it’s an issue that we need to address at all. It is not an issue that even needs to be on the policy-making table right now whatsoever,” he said. Appearing Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Cantor refused to call people who question Obama’s citizenship “crazy.” “I don’t think it’s nice to call anyone crazy,” Cantor said Cantor says he believes that Obama wants what’s best for the country and that there are honest disagreements over how to achieve that. Birthers say there’s no proof he was born in the United States; many of these skeptics question whether he was actually born in Kenya, his father’s home country. Hawaii’s health director said in 2008 and 2009 that she had seen and verified WILLIAM B. PLOWMAN/The Associated Press Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., speaks on NBC’s “Meet the Press” in Washington on Sunday. Obama’s original vital records, and birth notices in two Honolulu newspapers were published within days of Obama’s birth at Kapiolani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital in Honolulu. Health Department spokeswoman Janice Okubo again confirmed on Friday that Obama’s name is found in its alphabetical list of names of people born in Hawaii, maintained in bound copies available for public view. Hawaii’s Democratic governor, Neil Abercrombie, who was a friend of Obama’s parents and knew him as a child, began an effort last month to find a way to dis- pel conspiracy theories that the president was born elsewhere. The governor said he was bothered by people who questioned Obama’s birthplace for political reasons. But Abercrombie’s office said Friday that he was ending his quest because it’s against state law to release private documents. The state’s attorney general told the governor he can’t disclose an individual’s birth documentation without a person’s consent. The Obama campaign issued a certificate of live birth in 2008, an official document from the state showing the president’s birth date, city and name, along with his parents’ names and races. Republicans press for Senate vote on health care BY DOUGLASS K. DANIEL The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Senate Republicans want to box majority Democrats into allowing a health care repeal vote even if GOP lawmakers expect to be on the losing side. “We need to have a vote on it because we promised the people we would,” Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said Sunday on “Face the Nation” on CBS. “We have to have a vote on repeal so that everybody is on record whether they want to repeal.” Republicans took control of the House after November’s elections and last week voted, as promised, to repeal the health care law. Only three Democrats joined all Republicans in the 245-189 vote to scrap the law. MARY F. CALVERT/The Associated Press Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., talks on CBS’s “Face the Nation” in Washington on Sunday. In the Senate, Democrats retained majority control, even though the 53-47 split is narrower than the advantage they held before November. Two of those votes come from independents who caucus with the Democrats and support the health care law overall. Moreover, Senate measures usually require a 60-vote majority to advance. While Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who controls the Senate agenda, has said such a bill won’t come to a vote, Republican leader Mitch McConnell repeated his promise that a repeal vote will indeed take place. “I’m not going to discuss how we’ll do it from a parliamentary point of view here,” McConnell said on “Fox News Sunday.” “If that does not pass, and I don’t think anyone is optimistic that it will, we intend to go after this health care bill in every way that we can. It’s the single worst piece of legislation that’s been passed in my time in the Senate,” McConnell said. One route to a repeal vote could be through an amendment brought to the Senate floor, according to Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat. “If some Republican senator wants to offer it as an amendment at some point, it’s possible they will. It’s possible we’ll face that vote,” Durbin said on Fox. “But having spoken to my members in the Democratic caucus, with Sen. Reid, we feel there’s still strong support for health care reform.” With its mandate that almost all people in the U.S. carry insurance, the health care law divides people about evenly. Some provisions — coverage for those with pre-existing conditions and allowing older children to remain on parents’ insurance — are popular. Only about one in four people say they want to do away with the health care law completely, according to a recent Associated Press-GfK poll.

Powell told CNN’s “State of the Union” that he thought Obama’s presidency remains a work in progress and that tough issues such as the economy and unemployment need to be addressed. Powell said he hoped the president would tackle these matters in his State of the Union policy address Tuesday night. Dismissing widespread speculation that he might take a job in the Obama administration, possibly replacing Robert Gates as defense secretary, Powell said he is not interested in a government role. He said he wants to remain in private life although he is happy to be an informal presidential adviser. “The administration knows that I am quite content with the work I am doing now,” he said. “I am not interested in a government job.” NEW YORK — Ivanka Trump and her husband are expecting their first child.

The celebrity photographer told American Vogue that playing music by French singer Dalida — the same tracks used while he photographed Diana, William’s late mother — was the secret to the royal couple’s relaxed poses. William and Middleton chose two images for release after the photo shoot at St. James’s Palace last month, shortly after they announced their engagement. The couple, set to wed April 29, looked relaxed and happy in the images. Portugal elected its conservative president to a second term Sunday, delivering a harsh political setback to the minority Socialist government that is struggling to contain an acute economic crisis. Anibal Cavaco Silva, who is supported by the main opposition Social Democratic Party, collected 53 percent of the vote compared with 20 percent for second-place Socialist Party candidate Manuel Alegre, official figures showed with 98 percent of districts returning. Four other candidates picked up the remaining votes. The government has enacted deeply unpopular austerity measures amid fears that the financial crisis spells economic disaster for Portugal. The president possesses the power — known as his “atomic bomb” — to call a general election if he feels the government is on the wrong path. Hezbollah and its allies are willing to be part of a new unity government with their rivals in Lebanon’s Westernbacked political bloc if the candidate they are backing is chosen to be prime minister, the Shiite militant group’s leader said Sunday.

Ministers from Hezbollah and its allies brought down the unity government Hariri had led on Jan. 12 because of differences over a U.N.-backed tribunal investigating the 2005 assassination of Hariri’s father, former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

Tunisian police crack down on ex Ben Ali allies BY BOUAZZA BEN BOUAZZA AND HADEEL AL-SHALCHI The Associated Press TUNIS, Tunisia — Police in Tunisia cracked down Sunday on key allies of the ousted president, placing two high-ranking officials under house arrest and detaining the head of a wellknown private TV station for allegedly trying to slow down the country’s nascent steps toward democracy. The measures against former cronies and supporters of deposed President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali came amid continued street protests in the North African country’s capital, Tunis, and efforts by the tenuous interim government to heed the incessant ground- swell of opposition to his old guard. Hundreds of protesters — many from Tunisia’s provinces south of the capital — rallied in Tunis to press on with demands that holdovers of Ben Ali’s repressive 23-year regime be kept out of power. Tunisia’s “Jasmine Revolution” drove the ironfisted Ben Ali to flee to Saudi Arabia on Jan. 14, and sparked similar protests and civil disobedience across the Middle East and North Africa. Many observers were looking to see if Tunisians can complete their fervent push for democracy. State news agency TAP reported that Larbi Nasri, the president of privately owned Hannibal TV, was arrested Chavez supporter, foes stage anniversary rallies along with his son on charges of “high treason” and plotting against state security. The station, which has become one of Tunisia’s most popular channels mainly for its sports coverage and lively talk shows, almost immediately stopped its broadcasts.

Chavez proudly noted that he and his allies have repeatedly defeated opposition candidates at the polls for more than a decade. “They accuse me of being a dictator,” he said. “They must be crazy.” Chavez said he hopes to win re-election in 2012 and govern until 2019, when he would turn 65 years old. “I’d be an old man,” Chavez told the crowd. Jan. 23 is the anniversary of the overthrow of Gen. Marcos Perez Jimenez, Venezuela’s last dictator. Since Chavez took office in 1999, it has become a date that underscores Venezuela’s political divisions. Some government opponents have likened Chavez to Perez Jimenez, saying that both attempted to silence the news media, used the judiciary to jail adversaries and violated basic freedoms such as protest rights. “The big lesson from Jan. 23 is that we must fight for democracy and freedom every day,” said opposition lawmaker Maria Corina Machado. JERUSALEM — Palestinians were prepared to compromise over two of the toughest issues, Jerusalem and refugees, during peace talks in 2008, the Al-Jazeera TV channel reported Sunday, quoting from documents it said came from the talks. Palestinian negotiators quickly denied the reports, saying parts of the documents were fabricated. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said he has kept Arab countries fully briefed on the negotiations with Israel. Al-Jazeera said the Palestinians offered to let Israel keep all but one of the Jewish enclaves it build in east Jerusalem after capturing it in the 1967 Mideast war. About 200,000 Israelis live there now. In return, according to the quoted documents, the Palestinians wanted Israeli land, including a section close to the West Bank-Israel line where many of Israel’s minority Arab citizens live. Also, they proposed international control of the key Jerusalem holy site as a temporary measure. The Palestinians, Israel, the U.S., Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan would administer the site where the Al Aqsa Mosque compound sits atop the ruins of the biblical Jewish temples, until Israel and the Palestinians could work out a permanent arrangement. On the issue of refugees, the documents said the Palestinians agreed that Israel would take in 10,000 refugees a year for 10 years. The Palestinians have insisted that all refugees from the 1948-49 war and their descendants — several million people — have the right to return to Israel. The Israelis have always rejected that as a threat to the Jewish character of their state. China’s new stealth fighter may use USA’s technology BY DUSAN STOJANOVIC AND SLOBODAN LEKIC The Associated Press BRUSSELS — Chinese officials recently unveiled a new, high-tech stealth fighter that could pose a significant threat to American air superiority — and some of its technology may have come from the U.S. itself. Balkan military officials and other experts have told The Associated Press that in all probability the Chinese gleaned some of their technological know-how from an American F-117 Nighthawk that was shot down over Serbia in 1999. Nighthawks were the world’s first stealth fighters, planes that were very hard for radar to detect. But on March 27, 1999, during NATO’s aerial bombing of Serbia in the Kosovo war, a Serbian anti-aircraft missile shot one of the Nighthawks down. The pilot ejected and was rescued. It was the first time one of the much-touted “invisible” fighters had ever been hit. The wreckage was strewn over a wide area of flat farmlands, and civilians collected the parts as souvenirs. “At the time, our intelligence reports told of Chinese agents crisscrossing the region where the F-117 disintegrated, buying up parts of the plane from local farmers,” says Adm. Davor Domazet-Loso, Croatia’s military chief of staff during the Kosovo war. “We believe the Chinese used those materials to gain an insight into secret stealth technologies ... and to reverse-engineer them.” group, Trial, said torture was widespread in Tunisia while Kallel was interior minister in the early 1990s. Ben Dhia is considered one of Ben Ali’s most influential advisers, and Abdallah was a top political adviser to the former president who kept tabs on communication — notably on Tunisia’s powerful state-run media. Some Tunisians who have been protesting praised the house arrests. “I started applauding and singing in the house when I heard the news,” teacher Leila Labidi, 35, told The Associated Press. “These men were like the right hands of Ben Ali .... guiding him to more oppression of the people.” Advertise your business in the Keys’ Premier Bridal Guide The 2011 Bridal Magazine • Key West’s Premiere Bridal Guide will publish 34,000 copies on Wednesday, February 16. • Keyswide distribution including: The Citizen, Marathon & Big Pine Free Press, Islamorada Free Press and Key Largo Free Press. • The Bridal Magazine will also publish digitally on www.keysnews.com for the upcoming year. 328878 CARACAS, Venezuela — Allies and adversaries of President Hugo Chavez took to the streets of the capital by the thousands Sunday, staging rival demonstrations to commemorate the 53rd anniversary of Venezuela’s democracy. Opposition supporters gathered along an avenue in eastern Caracas and chanted antigovernment slogans while waving red-yellow-and-blue Venezuelan flags and banners labeling Chavez a despot. Many of the president’s critics expressed concerns that Chavez is amassing power and cracking down on dissent. “In a country where dissidence is constantly attacked, there’s no true democracy,” said Virginia Zamora, who helped organize the antiChavez rally. Chavez’s supporters staged their own demonstration to defend their leader, disputing claims that the former paratrooper popularly known as “El Comandante” is becoming increasingly authoritarian as he attempts to steer this politically divided South American country toward socialism. “Chavez has demonstrated again and again that he’s a democrat. It’s absurd that some think he’s a dictator,” said Alejandra Gonzalez, a single mother who supports Chavez for opening state-run markets that sell food at cutrate prices and sending Cuban doctors into the slums to help the poor.

Ben Ali’s widely despised wife, Leila Trabelsi, is accused of using his channel to “cause the revolution of the young to fail, sow chaos, incite disobedience and broadcast information” aimed to hoodwink the public, TAP said. The ultimate aim, its report said, was “to restore the dictatorship of the former president.” TAP also reported that former Ben Ali advisers Abdallah Kallel and Abdelaziz Ben Dhia have been placed under house arrest, and police are looking for a third man, Abdelwaheb Abdallah. Kallel, the Senate president and a former government minister, was stopped from leaving the country after Ben Ali fled.

BY BARRY WILNER For three rounds Saturday night against Evander Holyfield, Sherman “Tank” Williams – a member of local manager Si Stern’s Key West boxing camp – looked like he would be celebrating his first world heavyweight championship. Those aspirations were quickly erased just prior to the fourth round, however, when the 48-year-old Holyfield told the referee that he could no longer see out of his left eye and the fight was ruled a no-contest. The decision, which surely disappointed the White Sulpher Springs, W.Va., crowd as well as the pay-per-view audience, allowed Holyfield to retain his World Boxing Federation heavyweight championship. The timing of the stoppage – a bout has to at go at least four rounds to be declared official – and the actions of Holyfield’s corner between rounds left Stern feeling like his fighter was “robbed.” “His corner stopped the fight,” said Stern, noting that neither the referee nor ring-side doctor advised for the fight to be stopped. “The rule is simple: If it goes into the fourth round, it will go to the judges, who can then rule it a TKO. His corner was trying to stop the fight. They planned this whole thing out when they saw he was getting beat.” The cause of the cut above Holyfield’s eye that led to the ending was determined to be from an accidental headbutt in the second round. The 38-yearold Williams (34-11-2) claimed the cut over Holyfield’s eye was caused by an overhand right. Either way, Williams controlled the fight from the start, culminating with a flurry of body shots in the final minutes of the third that appeared to have Holyfield (43-10-2) staggered. “Everybody who saw the fight knew Sherman was beating him,” said Stern, who added that Holyfield’s eye appeared fine when the two were on the same flight to Atlanta out of West Virginia. “Sherman fought a beautiful fight. You couldn’t ask for a better fight from the guy.” See BOXING, page 3B PREP NOTEBOOK Pair of Keys girls soccer squads headed to regionals KEYS CALENDAR TODAY IN THE KEYS BY WILLIS JACOBSON, J.W.

Brian Rolston and Patrik Elias also scored for the Devils, who have picked up points in seven straight games (6-01). Their only blip during the surge was a 3-2 overtime loss at Florida on Jan. 15. Martin Brodeur made 24 saves. TAMPA — Steven Stamkos notched his NHL-best 38th goal to take over sole possession of the league scoring lead and help the first-place Tampa Bay Lightning win their fourth straight game, 71 over the struggling Atlanta Thrashers on Sunday. The Southeast leaders beat the Thrashers for the 11th straight time, completing a six-game sweep of the season series between the division rivals, playing for the second time in four days. KAUPULEHU-KONA, Hawaii — John Cook birdied five straight holes after the turn to win the Champions Tour’s season-opening Mitsubishi Electric Championship on Sunday, shooting a second straight 8-under 64 for a two-stroke victory over Tom Lehman. The 53-year-old Cook had eight birdies in his bogey-free round for a 22under 194 total and his second straight victory.

The Steelers silenced Rex Ryan’s wild bunch with a fumble return for a touchdown and a goal-line stand in a 24-19 victory for the AFC championship Sunday. They will face Green Bay in Dallas in two weeks. Look out Big D, here comes another Big D — in black and gold, and with an unmatched history of carrying off the Lombardi Trophy. You can bet that unit led by James Harrison, which shut down the Jets’ comeback in the fourth quarter, will test Aaron Rodgers. That overwhelming defense set the tone for most of a frigid night at Heinz Field to end the Jets’ stunning postseason run. Ryan slammed down his headset when Antonio Brown, also a hero last week, caught a pass for a first down that allowed Pittsburgh to hang on and run out the clock. And the Steelers (14-4) will challenge the Packers’ defense with a versatile attack led by running back Rashard Mendenhall and quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. The Steelers ended the Jets’ season with a dominant first half for a 24-3 edge. Mendenhall had 95 of his 121 yards and a touchdown. Roethlisberger has moved on from a four-game suspension at the beginning of the season to take Pittsburgh to its eighth Super Bowl. NFC Roddick loss ends US run; Federer extends streak BY JOHN PYE The Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia — Andy Roddick didn’t like being the fall guy again. The facts, however, were unmistakable: All the Americans were gone from the Australian Open. Roddick lost to 19th-seeded Stanislas Wawrinka on a cool Sunday night at Melbourne Park. Roddick saw 24 aces whip past him, barely got a look at a breakpoint chance and didn’t get his own big serve firing in a 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 fourth-round defeat. Roddick, seeded eighth, had been the last American man standing in the singles field. The women were out before the third round ended. Venus Williams lasted seven only points before she hobbled off with an ailing hip muscle. “Obviously I’m not going to sit here and ... “ Roddick checked himself and then switched gears, saying the stories were already written and it didn’t really matter what he said. “Obviously wasn’t the showing that we wanted, you know, but I’m doing what I can.” Roddick’s ouster came on a day when Roger Federer equaled Jimmy Connors’ Open era mark by reaching his 27th straight quarterfinal at a major, and Francesca Schiavone won the longest women’s match in Grand Slam history — a 6-4, 1-6, 16-14 victory over Svetlana Kuznetsova that took 4 hours, 44 minutes. No. 3 Novak Djokovic and No. 6 Tomas Berdych also won in the fourth round. Among the women, No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki and No. 9 Li Na advanced, while No. 14 Maria Sharapova lost to No. 30 Andrea Petkovic. Since Roddick’s 2003 U.S. Open victory, no American man has won a major. Venus and sister Serena Williams have won 10 majors between them in the interim, and 20 between them overall. Serena was the 2010 champion in Australia, but couldn’t defend her title because of a foot injury. “Not having the best player in the world at a major would be ... be tough for any country. Obviously we want her healthy as much as possible,” Roddick said. JOHN DONEGAN/The Associated Press Roger Federer reacts after winning a point during his fourth round match against Tommy Robredo at the Australian Open on Sunday in Melbourne, Australia. “You know, she’s instantly the best player in the game when she comes back.” Roddick’s career was starting in the days when Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi were winding down. Since they retired, no American man has regularly kept him company in the late stages of majors. “It’s tough,” he said. “I remember last summer when I was catching all the heat for not having an American guy in the top 10 for the first time in 15 years. Didn’t really make sense to me that I was the one taking heat when I was the only guy that had been there for the last six years. “It’s a responsibility that has great benefits, and it’s hard sometimes as well. ... For many reasons, I would love to have guys there with me all the time.” Roddick’s departure leaves 2010 finalist Andy Murray as the only player from any of the Grand Slam host countries in the tournament. All the French and the Australian players were already beaten by the end of the third round. There’s two Swiss, but only one can reach the semifinals. Wawrinka advanced to the first all-Swiss quarterfinal at a major in the Open era, where he’ll run into Federer, the defending champion. Federer beat Tommy Robredo 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 to reach the quarterfinals for the 27th major in a row. Connors’ mark came between 1973 and 1983 — although he didn’t play every major because he was hurt or didn’t travel to Australia. Schiavone, the French Open champion, saved six match points, then converted on her third match point in the longest women’s match at a major in terms of time in the Open era. The longest previous record was set in Australia last year when Barbora Zahlavova-Strycova beat Regina Kulikova 7-6 (5), 6-7 (10), 6-3 in 4:19. Said a spent Schiavone: “At the end, you have something more, always.” Kuznetsova said the match was so long she was forgetting the score or who should serve. Schiavone said it wasn’t quite that bad for her. “But I was watching the clock, and I say, ’Brava, Francesca, you are tough!”’ The 30-year-old Italian will next meet Wozniacki, who reached the quarterfinals in Australia for the first time with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Anastasija Sevastova. She then caused a bit of stir at her news conference with a tale about being scratched by a kangaroo. She later returned to Melbourne Park to clarify she’d made up the story and to apologize, saying she didn’t think anyone would believe it. Petkovic topped Sharapova, the 2008 champion, 6-2, 6-3. She will next play Li, the 2010 semifinalist from China who advanced with a 6-3, 6-3 decision over No. 8 Victoria Azarenka. It was Petkovic who needed to only four minutes and seven points before Venus Williams retired from their third-round match. U.S. Open champion Kim Clijsters, now the favorite among many to take the title, plays her fourthround match today against Ekaterina Makarova. Continued from page 1B Boxing Marathon Continued from page 1B Continued from page 1B There are suggestions that Holyfield wanted to end the fight early because he has a bout scheduled in Denmark in six weeks against Brian Neilsen. Stern said he will be talk with WBF officials today to try and get Williams as a replacement for Holyfield in that March 5 fight, with the winner possibly seeing Holyfield down the road. “You hate boxing for that, but you have to go by the rules and (Holyfield) obviously took advantage of that,” Stern said of the no-decision, noting that his impression after Saturday night was that Holyfield won’t be interested in giving Williams a rematch under any circumstances. “I’m interested in what the WBF has to say.” Regardless of whether Williams gets the Nielsen fight or not, Stern said the Bahamas native should be better for the experience. “It’s heart-breaking what happened to him, but he’s in for some bigger pay-days,” Stern said of Williams. “He did his job and clearly outclassed Evander Holyfield. “Even ESPN came out after the fight and said point-blank that Sherman should fight Neilsen. The consensus was that (Holyfield) quit, period. But because it was Holyfield, they let him get out of it.” wjacobson@keysnews. Angie Key, 36, of Hummelstown, Penn., won the women’s overall division with a time of 1:31:55.1, while Laurie Gaudreau (York, Maine 1:36:52) captured the Masters’ title. Defending champion Tom Dever, 53, of Terre Haute, Ind., took second place in the men’s division, turning in a time of 1:17:41.9. Third place went to 29-year-old Terry Lillicrapp of Media, Penn., who ran 1:19:16. In the women’s division, 36-year-old Jennifer Grimes of Sarasota, earned second place for her time of 1:32:37. Helena Bursa, 35, of Big Pine Key, placed third at 1:34:09.7. The hit of the 5-K race was Riley Smith (Shepergstown, Fl), age two, who placed third in the 14 and under age bracket and promtly ate his prize. Riley was the only 4 legged golden retriever registered in the race. The overall male winner for the 5-K was Aeschton Tomita (Key West) with the time of 19:18. David McCord (Key West) took the male masters crown with a time of 22:25. On the female slate, SallyAnn Patton (Atlanta, Ga) with a time of 23:50 and Amy Feed (Excelsior, Mn 25:20) captured the and Masters titles respectively. Making the event go smoothly was close to 250 volunteers, who manned the course and set up the registration and gala post party at Dante’s bar and restaurant. It is expected that this year’s race will once again be rated by runner’s world magazine as one of the top ten half marathons in the United States and again be designated as the best winter destination race.

It was the 182nd meeting in the league’s most historic feud, and the stakes had never been bigger. Now the Packers (13-6) are headed to Dallas. And no matter what happens in the Super Bowl on Feb. 6, the Packers and their fans hold ultimate bragging rights over their foes to the south. Green Bay will play the winner of Sunday night’s AFC title game between the New York Jets and Pittsburgh Steelers. “We made a play to win the game and that’s all that matters,” Packers linebacker Clay Matthews said. “Keep playing defense the way we know how, and it’s going to be tough for teams to beat us.” All Jay Cutler could do was watch, having left the game with a knee injury early in the third quarter. Even before the injury, Cutler was having trouble moving the ball. Worse, he was getting booed by the home fans. Primary backup Todd Collins replaced Cutler and was jeered even worse. Then little-known backup Caleb Hanie and the Bears (12-6) actually made it a game. 294-5233 328843 $ [email protected] 3420 Northside Drive, Key West 328523 4B THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ MONDAY, JANUARY 24, 2011 KEYSWIDE CLASSIFIED HOROSCOPES for today BRIDGE TIPS Be the court of last resort. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Your efficacy will suffer if you fail to make and follow a quality game plan concerning an important assignment. Strive to be methodical in handling your work. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - To be on the safe side, it is best not to borrow anything from another. However, if you have no other recourse, treat it with the same care that you would any of your own prized possessions. CANCER (June 21-July 22) - Because it is best not to spring any surprises on your mate, make sure s/he is informed of any important decision or action that you decide to take before you actually do so. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Normally you are extremely careful about your choice of words, especially if they are critical in nature. If you’re reckless about how you put things, you’ll reap the whirlwind. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Being hasty in your behavior or your handling of matters can lead to a series of boners and gaffes. Monday, Jan. 24, 2011 Numerous happy circumstances are likely to prevail for you and your loved ones in the next year, and even disappointing conditions could prove to be of value. Something important can be learned from mistakes. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Live in the now and deal with things as they occur. You’ll make yourself and everybody else miserable if you worry about every little insignificant detail and event. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) You could do yourself much more harm than you thought possible, if you seek out business advice from inexperienced parties. Go only to looped-in folks people for help. ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Instead of letting another tell you what to think, weigh and analyze all the facts for yourself, especially if it has something do with an important career matter. Take the time to pace yourself properly, and you’ll reduce mistakes. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Instead of merely ordering others about, set a good example as to how you want things handled. Actions always speak louder than words, and it’s likely to be the only way to get others to see the light. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Unless you are guarded, you could unintentionally betray a trust, so keep a close eye on your pie hole. It won’t matter that you didn’t mean to speak out of turn -- the damage will be done. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - You have little tolerance for stingy people. If you go to lunch with someone who doesn’t know how to mathematically split a check down the middle, keep a cool head. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Do be cognizant of small details when you are working on something that calls for precision. However, do not become obsessed with the nitty-gritty when it comes to minor things in life. East is the player with the decision By Phillip Alder In last week’s deals, declarer had two choices of play, usually at the first trick. This week, let’s move the problem to the third person to play to trick one. Look at the North and East hands. You are defending against four hearts. West leads the diamond three. What would you do? If you win the trick, what would you do next? North had a close decision over West’s takeout double. The Law of Total Tricks suggested jumping to four hearts, but that would have been excessive without a singleton or void. Two hearts, though, was not enough. North took the middle course, making a pre-emptive raise to three hearts. (With game-invitational values, he would have responded two no-trump.) The single most important defensive rule is when third hand plays high, he tables the bottom of equally high cards. Here, you must play the jack. Then, if South takes the trick with his ace, you are marked with the queen. West will win trick two with his heart ace and play another low diamond, putting you on lead for the lethal spade shift. Note that if you erred by playing the diamond queen at trick one, West would think South had the jack. He would not underlead again in diamonds, and declarer would take 10 tricks: four hearts, one diamond, four clubs and a ruff in the dummy. Finally, if declarer ducks the first trick, you should immediately switch to the spade nine (high denying an honor). West’s lead marks South with the diamond ace, so returning that suit would be a waste of time. ® KEYSWIDE CLASSIFIEDS 000 230..............Help Wanted Middle Keys 240.................Help Wanted Upper Keys ANNOUNCEMENTS 010....................................Public Notices 020............................Volunteers Wanted 030...............................................Travel 040.........................................Personals 050....................................Lost & Found 060..........................................Pets Found 100 SERVICES 110..............................Child/Adult Care 112...................................Money To Lend 120............................Private Instruction 130................................Mortgage Broker 200 EMPLOYMENT 210........................................Jobs Wanted 220...............Help Wanted Lower Keys 010 Public Notice NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS In case of errors, please check your ad the first day it appears.

GRIEVING PARENTS RECEIVE DISTURBING GIFT WITH POISE DEAR ABBY: At a recent anniversarycelebrationformyparents, a well-meaning but thoughtless in-law sent them a gift from my deceased sister, with a card signed with her name. She died of cancer two years ago. Her loss has been difficult and heartbreaking for all of us, especially my parents. I am furious at this guest for giving such a “gift.” My parents were visibly shocked, but thanked the person anyway. I knew the in-law was planning something like this, and I asked that it not be done at the party. I wish I had just said, “No! Don’t do it!” I’m not sure whether I am madder at the gift giver or myself. I feel like the work we have done to recover from the loss has been set back. I could use some good advice. -- SPEECHLESS IN NEW JERSEY DEAR SPEECHLESS: Your parents are extraordinarily gracious people to have handled the situation as tactfully as they did. It must have been devastating for them. The in-law’s level of insensitivity is appalling. Please do not blame yourself for what happened. If you had said, “Don’t do it,” it probably would have happened anyway. What’s done is done, now let it go. DEAR ABBY: My husband moved out on Feb. 14 of last year. (Yes, Valentine’s Day!) Our divorce will be final soon. My soon-to-be-ex parades his girlfriend all over town and with our friends. He claims it is over between us, yet he still comes over to mow the yard for me and do errands. He also comes here every Sunday to watch TV and visit. He says he wants to remain close friends even after the divorce. My question is: What gives with him? I don’t understand him at all. 422 FURNISHED APTS. LOWER KEYS 440 UNFURN.

DEAR ARE WE DONE YET?: For a man to move out on Valentine’s Day illustrates that he has the emotional sensitivity of a golf shoe. Your ex may be doing these things out of guilt. Whether the two of you are done yet depends upon how you define “done.” Your marriage is over. Your romance is, too. What’s left to tie you together? If it’s masochism on your part, I don’t recommend it. DEAR ABBY: While I was at the grocery store, the woman in front of me said hello like she recognized me. I recognized her, but didn’t remember her name or where I knew her from. I asked her some lame questions about art class, but it was obvious I didn’t know her from there. It was very embarrassing. The message I would like to give yourreadersis,pleasedon’tassumethat someone can place you immediately. I am 70, and my memory is no longer as good as it used to be. The woman should have made sure I knew who she was, because it could have saved both of us from embarrassment. -RED-FACED IN LEE’S SUMMIT, MO. DEAR RED-FACED: I’m pleased to pass along your message. I have always thought the best policy in these situations is honesty. Because you were unable to place the woman, you should have told her you couldn’t recall her name and asked her. To do so would not have been a breach of etiquette, and the encounter would have been less embarrassing for both of you.
