Man accused ofpassing fake money

SEBASTIAN — As coun-terfeit money goes, thefake $20 bills circulatingaround Sebastian lastweek were not the work ofa master counterfeiter,police said.

“They were of not goodquality,” said SteveMarcinik, public informa-tion officer for the Sebast-ian Police Department.

Nevertheless, policeallege Harold J. Kupchek,30, whose address is listedas homeless, managed topass at least six bills at five

locations.He was charged with five

counts of uttering coun-terfeit bills, possession ofoxycodone without a pre-scription and possessionof drug paraphernalia.

County political scene, ischallenging incumbentBob Solari for the District 5seat, along with newcomerNick Thomas.

In 2008, Mr. Heady wasdefeated by Mr. Solari in arace for the District 5 seat.In 2009, he was elected toVero Beach City Council fora two-year term.

If elected, Mr. Heady willseek to focus governmentspending in appropriateplaces.

“I’m tired of seeing taxdollars spent in inappro-priate ways. It’s inappropri-ate for governing authori-ties to collect taxes fromtaxpayers and turn themover to private industries,”Mr. Heady said.

Government shouldspend tax dollars on servic-es such as fire protection,police, life guards, roadsand other infrastructure,he said.

Pumping sand on thebeaches or giving money toentities such as Vero BeachSports Village, aren’t thebest use of taxpayer dollars,in Mr. Heady’s opinion.

It isn’t fiscally responsi-ble to spend upwards of$20 million to pump sandon a beach that is going to

wash away in the next bigstorm, Mr. Heady said.

Vero Beach Sports Villagemay be a great business tohave in the community, butit is not something taxpay-ers should have to fund.

“I’m not against busi-ness, but I don’t think it’sright for governing authori-ties to play Robin Hood, totake from one group andgive to another,” Mr. Headysaid.

As a private citizen andwhile holding public office,Mr. Heady has a reputationof taking strong stances forissues he is passionateabout.

While on the Vero BeachCity Council, Mr. Headywas outspoken on his dis-taste for pain clinics thatmake it easy for people toget pain medication,whether they have a pain

issue or not. Criminal activity esca-

lates when such businessesoperate and individualscome from miles around to“doctor shop” and get pre-scriptions for pain medica-tions and then resell themon the street. Mr. Headywas in favor of an immedi-ate ban on all such clinicslooking to open in VeroBeach, but he was unsuc-cessful.

Though he has repre-sented the citizens of VeroBeach in public officebefore, Mr. Heady is confi-dent voters will see he isready to represent thewhole county if elected,based on his vocal supportof being fair to county resi-dents while setting policyfor the city, such as withwater rates.

“I will be working for thebetterment of the county,”Mr. Heady said.

“I really do know andunderstand what the aver-age citizens want andexpect from the govern-ment and I’m not interest-ed in representing specialinterest groups,” he said.

sion in the primary willdecide who will be thecounty commissioner forthat district.

Prior to his term as countycommissioner, Mr. Solariserved on the Vero Beachplanning and zoning boardand on the Vero Beach CityCouncil.

Given the economicrecession, his time in officeat the county level has beenfull of hard decisions aboutbudget cuts.

He and his fellow boardmembers have pledged tonot add to the burden of thetaxpayers and have man-aged to keep the propertytax rate flat.

The goal in keeping taxesflat was to allow taxpayers tokeep their hard-earned dol-lars in their pockets so theycould do with it what theyneeded, whether it be sav-ing, buying groceries or pay-ing car or electric bills, Mr.Solari said.

“And we did it withoutcuts to essential services,”he said.

Also during his four-yearterm, the board has workedtogether to make the countya more attractive place fornew businesses to come andsettle down.

Voters also got in on theaction and passed a taxabatement program by ref-erendum in 2010. Depend-ing on the type of industry,companies can apply for taxexemption for up to 10 yearswith the program.

“We’ve made significantstrides to build a pro busi-ness perception,” Mr. Solarisaid.

Mr. Solari and the boardand county staff revampedthe existing economicdevelopment tool, known asthe local jobs grant, and hasseen great success in busi-nesses looking to takeadvantage of it.

Since 2010, the jobs granthas attracted close to 400jobs to the county, somefrom new employers, othersfrom existing businessesthat wanted to expand.

“Our work has just start-

ed. We need to do evenmore. We’ve turned this shiparound and now we need toget it to a better destina-tion,” Mr. Solari said.

Holding the line on taxesand promoting the countyas a business-friendly placeare definitely two elementsMr. Solari will focus on if re-elected, but another areanear to his heart is continu-ing to clean up the IndianRiver Lagoon.

Removing pollutants issomething Mr. Solaribelieves is an essential serv-ice to the communitybecause so much of IndianRiver County is tied to theriver.

Should the river becomeso contaminated and analgae bloom occur and killoff the grasses, fish andother wildlife, property val-ues would drop and thecounty would experience adrastic downturn intourism, neither of whichwould be beneficial to thecounty as a whole, Mr. Solarisaid.

Mr. Solari said he is inter-ested in exploring algae turfmats and a system to sendwater to the west part of thecounty. He is already look-ing at places to get fundingfor the project.

His mantra during thecampaign, and the ideologyhe hopes to carry forward ifelected, has been to pre-serve the county and simul-taneously progress thecounty forward.

“Vero Beach has a brand.It’s one of the most famousresort town brands in theworld, on par with Hawaiiand Aspen. I want to pre-serve that brand and thetruth behind it,” Mr.Thomas said.

People don’t come to Indi-an River County becausethere is a mall, or to eat atBob Evans, people comebecause of the greatschools, the Indian River,the quiet lifestyle and otherthings, Mr. Thomas said.

“I want to be the guy thatbrings back the spirit of theplace,” he said.

To make the county betterand to progress in a positivemotion for the future,growth is a major issue forhim.

Growth is a part ofprogress, but it can be donein a responsible manner, hesaid.

When it comes to largegrowth and high-rise build-ings, Mr. Thomas said he’dhold the line to preserve thelook and lifestyle of the Indi-an River County communi-ty.

The county includes fivemunicipalities and Mr.Thomas said he would liketo see the municipalitiesretain their own autonomyand continue to make deci-sions specific to their com-munities.

If only five people on acounty board make thedecisions for the entire pop-ulation, all it would take isthree people to be swayedtoward something thatmight not be in the best

interest of the majority, hesaid.

The two stances of pre-serving and progressing arecombined in one issue Mr.Thomas is passionateabout: pollutants in theIndian River Lagoon.

“We’ve got a pollutionproblem here. We don’t havean inlet here in Vero Beachso the pollutants we havehere don’t go anywhere. Iwant to change that byinstalling culverts from theocean to the Indian River atJaycee Park,” Mr. Thomassaid.

The pollutants could becleaned and oxygenatedand sent back into the riverto help the wildlife flourishonce again, he said.

“I love this place. Very few,if any, other towns have thecombination of sophistica-tion and small town wehave. I want to protect it,not profit off of it,” Mr.Thomas said.

man told the other manthat he will take care of thefinances if the other manwill take the blame.

When questioned, theman did take the blame.The other man also blamedthe builder, saying theywere doing what he toldthem to do.

In the end, both menwere arrested.

It just doesn’t seem likelythat if someone is innocent,will ask another person totake the blame for some-thing they didn’t do.

Failing to do the right thing

A Stuart man who report-ed losing his cell phone toldthe Martin County Sheriff’sOffice that he called hisnumber and a mananswered demanding $50for the return of his phone.

The man who lost thephone contacted the sher-iff’s office and a sting wasset up.

He arranged to meet withthe man who had thephone. When the secondman showed up, deputiesarrested him. They also dis-covered he had a crackpipe.

Besides possibly servingjail time, the man will likelyend up paying more than$50 in court costs and fines.

Doing the right thingwould have saved him allthat.

ing the company in VeroBeach with members ofthe county commissionand the chamber, andeven received some direc-tion regarding investors,but the cost was too high,said Eric Menger, VeroBeach airport director

Mr. Menger was hopefulthe company would findit’s wings and come to theairport as passenger airservice is something fromwhich the Treasure Coastcommunity would benefit.

Now that the idea hasbeen flown out there, hehopes other companieswill turn their eye to VeroBeach and see that the air-port is well equipped forpassenger service onceagain.

“When and if they come,we’ll be ready for them,”Mr. Menger said.

Helene Caseltine, eco-nomic development direc-tor for the chamber, saidthe chamber was not seek-ing out passenger air serv-ice, but recognized thepossible benefit to thecounty passenger servicewould bring.

“It could certainly makean impact on the commu-nity with jobs and increasethe tax base. I’m sure some

people would prefer not tohave it though, because ofjet noise,” Ms. Caseltinesaid.

It has been more than 15years since the Vero BeachMunicipal Airport hasoffered commercial pas-senger flights.

Ms. Caseltine saidanother company statedinterest in gatheringdetails for a different avia-tion type of business inIndian River County.

An unnamed Europeanaircraft manufacturer isinterested in establishing aU.S. base for assembly andcustomer support, shesaid.

The manufacturer isinterested in Floridabecause of the weatherand would like to establishthe base in a noncommer-cial airport. Ms. Caseltineshared information aboutboth the Sebastian and theVero Beach municipal air-ports to the company.

Indian River County isnot the only communitythe manufacturer is inves-tigating, and the process isstill in the very earlystages, Ms. Caseltine said.

Group to provide school supplies for hundreds

TREASURE COAST — AnIndiantown organization isplanning to give free back-packs loaded with schoolsupplies to children acrossthe Treasure Coast.

Last year, IndiantownCommunity Outreachdonated 460 bags in one dayto families from Martin, St.Lucie, Okeechobee andIndian River counties,administrators said.

This year, the nonprofitaims to double that numberwhen it holds its fifth annualback to school bash on Aug.11.

“We’re hoping we can domore and invite many more

people to participate,” saidNiambi Emanuel, spokes-woman for the IndiantownCommunity Outreach,which is co-hosting theevent with Florida HealthCenters.

Jackie Clarke, CEO ofIndiantown CommunityOutreach, works with non-profits around the region tospread word of the event.

The groups, in turn, helpwith community outreachto tell residents about theavailability of free back-packs, paper, books, pens,rulers, notepads and othersupplies from sponsors suchas Indiantown NonprofitHousing, Rines IGA Market,Indiantown ITS Telecom,Martin County Health

Department, Burger Kingand Family Drugs ofIndiantown.

Organizers of the back-to-school giveaway say familiescontinue to show up seekingassistance long after thedrive is over. About 650 peo-ple attended last year’sevent, but the countreached about 800 when vis-itors came to IndiantownCommunity Outreach thatweek, leading staff to createmakeshift bags for many ofthe visitors, Ms. Emanuelsaid.

“We want to be able tohelp them all and make iteasy for parents to get theschool supplies they needfor their kids,” she said.

The group is making a

party of the event, offeringfree food, drinks, doorprizes and other giveaways.It will include music andentertainment, such asbounce houses and facepainting.

Officials from the MartinCounty Health Departmentand Florida CommunityHealth Centers will also beonsite to conduct immu-nization clinics.

The bash is set to takeplace at the outreach cen-ter’s headquarters, locatedat 15161 Southwest 169thAve., in Indiantown.

Organizers said the non-profit welcomes donationsof school supplies.

ment, said it’s not uncom-mon for buyers to later dis-cover the document is just apiece of paper.

Such was the case thatinvolved a Fellsmere womanwho authorities believe solddogs with false animalhealth certificates, he said.

Cathy Kenyon Hinkle, 45,14750 101st St., Fellsmere,was arrested June 28 andcharged with three counts offorgery or uttering a falseanimal health certificateand criminal use of identifi-cation.

An arrest affidavit said theinvestigation began afterbuyers of dogs from Ms.Hinkle showed the healthcertificates to veterinarians,who told them the docu-ments appeared to beforged or altered.

Investigations of suchallegations have becomefrequent, Lt. Freeman said“We see them fairly regular-ly,” he added.

The motivation for such aviolation is that dog breed-ers/sellers avoid the cost ofpaying a veterinarian, hesaid.

Laws regarding healthcertificates provide assur-ance to pet buyers that theyare getting healthy animals,Lt. Freeman said.

“They get attached to theanimals and want to growold with them,” he said.

Another purpose of thelaw, he said, is help stem thespread of animal disease.

Cathy Scott, a Fort Pierceveterinarian who saw one ofthe certificates that authori-ties allege to be false, saidshe sees such altered orforged certificates too often.

Dr. Scott said she believesthe system doesn’t haveenough safeguards to pre-vent the crime. But, shesaid, she doesn’t want to dis-

close publicly the weakness-es in the system and make iteasier for more people toprovide false certificates.

Buyers of animals cansafeguard themselves bychecking with veterinarianswho issued the certificatesto make sure the documentsare authentic, she said.

Her office keeps a copy ofeach certificate, she said.

In some cases, though, thesignatures on the certificateare impossible to read, shesaid.

The investigation regard-ing Ms. Hinkle began afterthe state received informa-tion from Lisa D. Jutras, aveterinarian at St. FrancisAnimal Hospital in VeroBeach, about a fraudulentanimal health certificate.

After that a state investi-gator talked with twowomen who said theybought puppies from Ms.Hinkle at her Fellsmere resi-dence, an arrest affidavitsaid.

The women told theinvestigator they took thepuppies and health certifi-cates to Sebring AnimalHospital and doctors theretold them the documents“appeared to be forged andfraudulent,” the arrest affi-

davit said.Those doctors then con-

tacted Dr. Jutras, who, uponseeing one of the docu-ments, told them it “wasforged without her fullknowledge and consent,”the arrest affidavit said.

Dr. Jutras told investiga-tors she contacted Ms. Hin-kle, who “did apologize anddid fully admit to altering,falsifying and/or forging theofficial certificate of veteri-nary inspection,” the affi-davit said.

However, the affidavit saidwhen interviewed by aninvestigator, Ms. Hinkledenied selling the dogsinvolved.

Dr. Jutras also told investi-gators another certificatepresented to the AnimalHospital of Fort Pierce,where Dr. Scott is a veteri-narian, also was forged, theaffidavit said.

She was contacted by theanimal hospital about whatappeared to be a fraudulentcertificate from her office.

Lt. Freeman said his officeis not aware of Ms. Hinkleselling other animals withfraudulent certificates.

He urged any other poten-tial victims to contact lawenforcement.

Mr. Lochetto Sr., waspumping air into a tire onhis vehicle at a 7-Eleven inVero Beach on Aug. 16, 2009when he was shocked by themachine. He died onemonth later.

Charles Sullivan, the attor-ney representing theLochetto family, said aninvestigation of the machinefound it was improperlyconnected and caused anelectrical current to flowthrough the air hose.

The National ElectricalManufacturers Associationis considering a revision tothe national electrical codeto require ground fault cir-cuit interrupters on all suchmachines, said Joseph Hig-bee, director of marketingand communications for theNational Electrical Manu-facturers Association.

The code is revised everythree years and the revisionsfor the 2014 major revisionare currently being consid-ered, Mr. Higbee said.

The circuit breakerswould act similarly to thoseinstalled in bathrooms andkitchens that cut off powerwhen a machine malfunc-tions, rather than acting as aconduit of electricity, Mr.Sullivan said..

A report by the NationalManufacturers Associationsaid the breaker is alreadyrequired on vendingmachines, which are alsoused frequently by the pub-lic.

“It’s a pretty significantchange, a major change forpeople’s safety,” Mr. Sullivansaid.

The family is happy a safe-guard will be put in place sothat the tragedy that strucktheir family will not happento others, he said.

“Even though theBrackett Library is closedthere are still things to bedone. People continue toplace reserves on items,because they can do thatfrom home, so ouremployees are gatheringthose lists and callingpeople,” Ms. Snyder said.

Patriotic Sharks

Cliff Partlow/staff photographerThe Sebastian River High School Marching Sharks played patriotic music as they made their way along Indian RiverDrive during the Sebastian 4th of July parade last Wednesday. The all-day event drew thousands of holiday revelersto Riverview Park.

Computers can getoverwhelmed fromtime to time. I’m not

saying that computers canbe overwhelming, they can,but that’s not what thisweek’s column is about.

What I’m referring to arethe times when, for noapparent reason, thecomputer just stopsfunctioning and you can’tseem to do anything.

What most people don’trealize is just how muchstuff is going on in thebackground at any giventime. Every part of thecomputer, from thekeyboard to the mouse tothe monitor, has a littleprogram running in thebackground that is incharge of how that particu-lar part functions.

And they all have to runtogether harmoniously.

I’m not talking about justa few little programs ordrivers, there are literallythousands of things goingon in the background atany given second andsometimes the operatingsystem can get over-whelmed.

Frankly, I’m surprisedcomputers even run at allwithout crashing after fiveminutes of up time.

I always have to smilewhenever I hear anyonesay, “I wasn’t even doinganything and it just lockedup.”

Sure, you weren’t doinganything, but the computeris still as busy as a one-armed paperhanger.

Consider this: even if youare just sitting there, handscompletely off the mouseand keyboard, the comput-er is constantly (and I domean constantly) lookingat the keyboard and mousefor any change. It’s also re-painting whatever’s on thescreen 60 to 70 times asecond, checking to see ifit’s time to start the screensaver, listening to networkor modems connections forincoming calls and more.

So even if you are notdoing anything, thecomputer is still very busyjust waiting for you to dosomething. And that’s noteven considering thehundreds of other things ithas to do just to keep the

desktop alive and stable.That’s why your computercan sometimes becomeoverwhelmed and freezeup.

So, what do you do aboutit when it happens? Let’s gothrough a common sce-nario.

Let’s say you are surfingthe Internet and you click alink, the page loads andyou start reading. You get tothe bottom of the page andgo to click somewhere else,but the pointer is just anhourglass and you can’tclick anything. Or, maybethe pointer looks fine (nohour glass) but still,nothing happens when youclick.

What do you do then?First, don’t panic.It usually doesn’t mean

the computer is messed up.It usually means that it gotbogged down somewhereand needs a “little nudge”to get it back on track.

I usually try to get thecomputer’s attention bytrying a couple of differentkeyboard commands. I’llhit the escape key (usuallyat the top left-hand side ofthe keyboard) to divert themachine’s attention fromwhatever it’s stuck on.Sometimes this is all ittakes, and sometimes not.

If the escape key doesn’tchange anything I’ll try theold standard: CTRL +ALT +DEL (aka the “three fingersalute”) and see if I canaccess the task manager.

But, what if that doesn’twork?

Another thing to trywould be to reboot themachine. Just press andhold the power button untilthe computer shuts down,wait 10 to 20 seconds andturn it back on. After themachine restarts, thingsshould be back to normaland you should havecontrol of your mouseagain.

I know powering off the

Don’t panic if computer getsoverwhelmed

Not a good time for fireworksColorado is still burning, and we have people shoot-

ing off fireworks in Sebastian, showing no regard fortheir own safety or that of their neighbor.

Aren't fireworks against the law? I enjoy a good timetoo, but with the tragedy in Colorado, I think severalpeople showed a complete lack of common sense.

Editor’s note: States set fireworks policies. To see a mapof which states permit fireworks, to go http://www.amer-icanpyro.com/pdf/2012StateLawsFireworkMap.pdf.

Big brotherBig Brother refuses to go away. In New York City,

Mayor Michael Bloomberg requires fast-food eateries topost calorie counts. He wants to substitute today'sFrench fries with fries without transfats (and withouttaste).

Now, he is trying to ban large-size soft drinks, allefforts to tackle obesity.

All of these are efforts to demonstrate that Big Brotherknows best.

This is a classic battle between the forces of theNanny State and those who treasure individual free-dom.

The United States of AmericaWith it being around July 4th I thought I’d pose the

question “why is America the greatest country onEarth?”

Well sorry to disappoint you, but it isn’t. Here’s a fewfacts for you to think about this holiday, Americans areseventh in literacy, 27th in math, 22nd in science, 49th inlife expectancy, 178th in infant mortality, third in medi-an household income, fourth in exports and fourth inlabor force. The only categories the good old USA leadsthe world in are number of incarcerated citizens percapita, number of adults who actually believe angels arereal and No. 1 in defense spending, where we spendmore than the next 26 countries combined and 25 ofwhom are allies. And you wonder why there is a deficit.

Yet, once again, I read a couple of rants blaming teach-ers for all society’s ills. Well, maybe some of these Ameri-cans need to take a long hard look in the mirror: basical-ly the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Stupid peoplebreed stupid kids.

We have a generation of zombies whose idea of enjoy-ment is to spend hours watching race cars go round andround and round again, or being enthralled by the latesttrash reality show, but ask any of them the directions tothe local library and look at the blank stare you get. Mostwouldn’t know how to open a book to save their lives.

Add to that the garbage opinion that passes for newson TV, the corrupt cronyism in Washington, D.C., andevery state house across the nation, and it’s both partieswho are guilty not one or the other but both. Is there anywonder this country is failing?

Once, this country was a beacon of hope for the rest ofthe world. Now, we undermine and other throw demo-cratically elected governments, prop up dictators as longas it benefits corporate interests, wage war again for cor-porate greed all in the name of “freedom.” Think aboutthat when you’re heading to Wal-Mart this holiday to buya new TV or other stuff all on sale, all made in China bylittle more than slave labor, instead of being “Made inthe USA” by our neighbors and family and friends.

America used to wage war on poverty, not poor peo-ple. We sacrificed, we cared about our neighbors, we did-n’t allow ourselves to live in fear, and we strived forgreatness but didn’t beat our chests. We aimed for thestars and reached the moon, we valued and aspired

intelligence, we didn’t belittle it. We debated and dis-agreed, but respected the others right to their opinions,and we used to care.

Shame on all of us for allowing a bunch of corruptpoliticians and corporations to ship good paying jobsoverseas all in the name of “free trade,” wage war oncountries to steal their natural resources, and scare usinto subservience, then pit us against each other whilethey play us for the puppets we are. Then they tell us weare no longer a manufacturing-based economy, we are aconsumer-based economy. Well, hello, a consumer-based economy is doomed to fail when the consumerscan’t afford to consume.

Wake up America before it’s too late!Editor’s note: The statistics quoted at the beginning of

this rant are not facts. Rather, they were taken from theHBO-produced television show “The Newsroom.” Duringthe opening scene of the pilot episode a news anchor isasked why America is the greatest country in the world.He goes on to quote those statistics. According toAneki.com, a database that tracks world rankings, theUnited States is No. 33 in life expectancy, No. 157 in infantmortality, No. 10 in the highest employment rates, No. 2 inincarcerated citizens (Russia is No. 1) and No. 24 in mili-tary expenditure (based on percentage of gross domesticproduct).

Bike ordinanceRegarding the ordinance prohibiting bike riders from

use of sidewalks, motorists do not want us on the roadsand you do not want us on the sidewalks, what are wesupposed to do get wings and fly in the air?

I understand not wanting vehicles with motors on thesidewalks, but would you like to walk on the roads withall the traffic?

It would be nice to share the sidewalks with regularbike riders.

MurderTwenty years ago, Wayne Smith killed a woman and

was sentenced to death. This murder was not Smith'sfirst run-in with the law. He had previously killed a manoutside a bar using a machete. He had served only fouryears.

Using endless appeals, his attorneys have kept himalive. Law-abiding citizens should be outraged. Quietlyand through political contributions, lawyers take advan-tage of the current legal system and use it as a cash cow.

Editor’s note: We can’t be certain, but we think thereader is referring to a Chester, Pa., man who murdered a26-year-old woman in 1994. He was recently sentenced todeath for his crime, as reported by the Delaware CountyDaily Times. For more, go to www.delcotimes.com.

Can’t sing certain songsThe principal of a New York City school prohibited

kindergarten pupils from singing Lee Greenwood's "GodBless the USA" at their graduation on the grounds that"we don't want to offend other cultures."

Many parents were angry. One said, "A lot of peoplefought to move to America to live freely, so that songshould be sung with a whole lot of pride."

We agree.

The dead can’t voteAt least 1.8 million people on the voter rolls will not be

able to cast ballots in November. That's because they are dead. Their registrations are among a total of more than 24

million inaccurate or out-of-date U.S. voter records,according to the Pew Center on the States.

If we want honest and fair elections, states such asFlorida, which are trying to clean up this mess, deservecredit for being on the right track.

Wild pitchesIn today's society, everyone can sue almost everyone

else for just about anything, or almost nothing.A woman hit by a baseball at a Little League game is

suing the 11 year old who threw it.The spectator wants the young man to pay her

$150,000, alleging the errant throw was "reckless.""The whole thing has almost been surreal," said the

boy's father.The lawyers on both sides are laughing all the way to

the bank. The real tragedyis that the general publicdoes not realize that theyare being stuck with all thebills.

When will it be?Strange, isn't it?

Democrats frequentlypromise to reduce taxes,but always at some timein the future.

However, to arrive atthis paradise, they requirehigher taxes immediately.

What a slight of hand.They've been gettingaway with this ruse foryears but people are get-ting smarter and hopeful-ly, they will wise up.

Illegals and the Dream Act

This country's No. 1need is more jobs.

President Obama'slawyers defend the so-called Dream Act, whichgrants amnesty to an esti-mated 11 million peoplewho are here illegally.

Illegals work for littlepay and take jobs whichshould go to Americancitizens.

If passed, such a lawwould attract even morepeople to come here ille-gally because they couldanticipate that they, too,would be granted citizen-ship.

We will never solveAmerica's jobs problem aslong as we wink at theproblem of the never-ending flood of illegals.

Editor’s note: Fox Newsreported that the decisionto suspend the deporta-tion of illegal immigrantswill affect roughly 800,000people.

VERO BEACH — Hottemperatures in VeroBeach are usually relatedto outdoor summertimefun on sandy shores, but akiln at the Vero BeachMuseum of Art is a lot hot-ter.

Mary Adamski-Partowjust finished teachingsummer art camp classes

for children at the muse-um using her favoritemedium: glass.

Ms. Adamski-Partow, aformer Rosewood MagnetSchool teacher, brought awhole new perspective onglass and art to children atthe museum’s annualsummer art camp classesas a new faculty memberwith the museum.

She created a curricu-lum to teach three-d glassart for children and uses apre-class heating tech-nique to soften the edgesof the glass so children canhandle the material safely.

Using glass pieces, the

students decorated andcreated coasters andbowls. The students aretaught about color theoryand patterns and maketheir design choices. Theglass pieces are glued ontoa base piece with regularglue and then put in thekiln to heat then melt thedesign so it becomes per-manent, Ms. Adamski-Par-tow said.

“It’s a very cool mediumfor kids because it’s notsomething you can do in aregular school curricu-lum,” she said in an inter-view.

She first became

inspired by glass abouteight years ago and hasenjoyed learning new waysto use it to express art.

“For me, I think glass issuch fun to work with. Itcan be molded into anyshape and just somethingabout the way the lightcatches the glass — I likeit,” Ms. Adamski-Partowsaid.

Because the art camp iswithin the museum, thestudents also had the ben-efit of seeing an existingcast glass sculpture exhibitduring the camp, she said.

Connell, a Titusville resi-dent, will bring to life HenriTomasi’s Concerto for Trom-bone and Orchestra Sunday,July 22 at Trinity EpiscopalChurch, one of severalpieces being performed thatevening by the Space CoastSymphony Orchestra.

Mr. Connell, who hasbeen playing since the sev-enth grade, has devotedmany hours to preparingand building endurancespecifically for this perform-ance.

“This Concerto is one ofthe most difficult pieces thatthe repertoire has,” Mr. Con-nell said. “I used to say, ‘Oneday I’m going to play thiswith a real orchestra.’ Thisopportunity has been reallygreat for me.”

Mr. Connell first devel-oped his passion for thetrombone as a student atTitusville High School,under the direction of IanSchwindt.

While still in high school,he began performing withthe Brevard SymphonyYouth Orchestra, a role thatearned him the principaltrombone position of theFlorida All-State 11-12Band, as well as an opportu-nity to perform with the Bre-vard County Honors Bandand Orchestra.

After graduation, Mr. Con-nell went on to study at theNew England Conservatoryin Boston and earned abachelor’s degree in trom-bone performance from theUniversity of Central Floridain Orlando this spring.

Throughout his musicalbackground, Mr. Connellhas seen his fair share ofperformances, but saidHenri Tomasi’s piece hadalways intimidated himfrom a young age.

“When I was younger, Ithought it was too difficult,”he said. “I started reallyworking on the piece morethan a year ago. I had to getmy endurance up becausethe range of the piece staysin the high register. It’s verytaxing on the lungs andlips.”

The difficulty of the piecealso lies in the performanceitself, including what Mr.Connell described as thestrong melody and the sub-tle nuances.

“I really had to work tobring the emotions out inthe piece,” he said.

For a full 15 minutes, thepiece is his to play, andwhile 15 minutes may notseem like long to some, thepressure and constant use ofthe lungs and the precise-ness of the notes, can makeit seem like a lifetime for theperformer.

In addition to HenriTomasi’s Concerto, the Sym-phony Orchestra will firstperform the musicallyexplosive, WolfgangAmadeus Mozart’s “Over-ture of the Marriage ofFigaro,æ and then closewith the romantic and pas-sionate sounds of SergeiRachmaninoff’s “SymphonyNo. 2.”

Mr. Connell said he isboth anxious and excited towork alongside such talent-ed musicians in the upcom-ing performance.

“You’re afraid of messingup, but you practice to take

that away,” he said. “I love to perform in front

of people, but I guarantee Iwill be nervous. I’m usuallythe guy who sits in the backand lets the violins get thefame. I just want to makethe symphony proud.”

Trinity Episcopal Churchis located at 2365 Pine Ave.,Vero Beach.

Admission is $20, and stu-dents 18 and younger arefree.

For more information,visit www.spacecoastsym-phony.org.

The students were takenon a tour of the glass exhibitand exposed to the world ofa glass artist, an opportunitywhich not many art campscan boast, she said.

“It was a dream of mine towork at a museum and thisis a beautiful facility and it issuch a pleasure to work inthis environment. I enjoyteaching art, so this is theperfect place to be,” Ms.Adamski-Partow said.

This fall, Ms. Adamski-Partow will begin teachingceramics at Vero Beach HighSchool. She has also createdan art afterschool programfunded by a grant award bythe Mardy Fish Foundation.Mr. Fish is a professionaltennis player who was bornin Indian River County.

Comparing ourtemperatures of lateto those in the

northeast and northGeorgia, Tennessee and theCarolinas, we appear to behaving a cool spell. Fortu-nately, we are blessed with acooling breeze from theocean, while those north ofus are trapped with triple-digit temperatures and ahot wind. However, don’t letour better fortune lull youinto the idea that it isn’t stillterribly hot here.

Since golf is an outdoorsport, you should beproperly prepared to takeon the heat and avoiddehydration, heat exhaus-tion or stroke.

Sweating is the mostsignificant way the bodycools itself to maintain asafe and stable tempera-ture. In humid climates oursweat doesn’t evaporateeasily and our bodies don’tcool efficiently. We sweatmore and need to consumemore fluids to help ourbodies stay cool andperform at its best.

It’s important that youdrink before you’re thirsty.You’ll even play better whenyou’re not constantlylooking for the next watercooler.

Sports drinks, such asGatorade and the like, helpreplenish your body withthe fluids and electrolytesthat your body loses whileperspiring. These drinks arealso loaded with carbohy-drates that provide energyyour body needs.

Fruits are best for givingyou a boost of long-lastingenergy. Candy bars providequick energy, but theireffects diminish just asquickly. Bananas, apples orpeaches are easy to carryand easy to eat. Bananasalso help to prevent thebuildup of cramp-causinglactic acid in the muscles, afrequent occurrence duringexercise.

The most importantconcern should be avoidingheat exhaustion or, evenworse, heat stroke. Thereare many ways to do that.

Always wear shorts, andlight colored shirts. It maysound crazy, but wearing anundershirt will also help.The undershirt helps getperspiration away fromyour body where it canevaporate more quickly,assisting in the coolingprocess. If you feel toowarm at the turn, stop bythe clubhouse, grab a colddrink and soak up some airconditioning.

While hats are great forkeeping the sun off yourhead and face, they willmake you warmer. Yourbody discharges most of itsheat through your head.Medical experts state thatup to 70 percent of yourblood is in your head at anygiven time. If your head ishot, so is the rest of yourbody. Therefore, if yourhead is cool, the rest of yourbody will be, as well. I like to

take my cap off when I’mriding along in the cart. Thesun isn’t beating down onme and the breeze createdby the moving cart helps tocool me.

Some people like to takealong an extra towel or two.They dampen these towelsat every water cooler andlay them across the back oftheir necks or over theirheads when not hitting ashot, or wipe their face andarms with them to keepcool.

If you are taking medica-tion, your body may needeven more assistance tokeep cool. Some medica-tions interfere with sweat-ing, putting you at a greaterrisk. Check with your doctorto see if your medicationcould be putting you at riskand what measures youshould take to lesson yourchances of heat-inducedillness.

If you begin to feel theeffects of extreme thirst,nausea, dizziness,headache, elevated temper-ature, if your skin lookspale, your pupils appeardilated or your musclesstart to cramp, there is agood chance that you aresuffering from heat exhaus-tion.

The best thing to do isimmediately get to a coolplace and rest. Replenishyour body by drinking largeamounts of fluids andeating generously saltedfoods to help your bodyreturn to its normal bal-ance.

Heat stroke is much moreserious and can quicklybecome deadly. Symptomsof heat stroke include hot,dry skin with a grayish tint,dilated pupils and a bodytemperature that may riseto more than 104 degrees.

Anyone suffering fromheat stroke must be treatedquickly. Immerse the victimin a cool water or ice bathand call 911 immediately.

Finally, a step many of usforget. Remember to putsunscreen on every exposedbody part. The effects ofsunlight on our skin can bedeadly. Skin cancer isbecoming more prevalentwith the depletion of theEarth’s protective ozonelayer. A few minutes spentputting on sunscreen couldsave your life.

We all want to enjoy ourround and play our best. Ifyou’re careful and follow afew of tips, you can makesure your next round isn’tyour last.
