For years, SamirBrahmbhatt, the pharma-cy manager at HealthMart in Oviedo, has dealtwith senior citizens.

He’s gotten to knowtheir names, medicalproblems and the hasslethey often endure toreceive their medication.

In an attempt to rem-edy these pharmaceuticalwoes, Brahmbhatt isimplementing a senioroutreach program at thepharmacy, which willprovide several servicesto seniors who are find-

ing themselves in difficultsituations.

“People don’t like togo in assisted living facili-ties. They’re trying tostay in their home as longas they can,” Brahmbhattsaid. “The problem withdoing that is that theydon’t have a way of trans-portation. If the caregiverisn’t in town, they have tomake a lot of efforts to getto the pharmacy.”

For the past few years,Brahmbhatt and his phar-macy technicians havedelivered medications tosenior citizens who havetransportation difficul-ties.

inclusiveness. Of these cate-gories, Oviedo citizensranked their city high innearly every area.

NCR received 392 com-pleted surveys from resi-dents representing 33 per-cent of the community.According to city officials ina release, the response rateson these kinds of surveysare usually between 25 per-cent and 40 percent, and inthis case the margin of errorwas 5 percent, enough tomake it an accurate repre-sentation. Households wereselected at random by acomputerized system toparticipate in the survey.

Oviedo scored well in alot of areas but saw excep-tional results in certain cate-gories, Persampiere said.

The report showed thatresidents rated the city’spublic safety in the 90thpercentile, including statis-tics that showed that 90 per-cent of residents ranked thepolice services as “excellentor good,” and 97 percent ofresidents ranked the fireservices as “excellent orgood.” These results showthat Oviedo is “muchabove” other cities of thesame size also participatingin the nationwide survey.

Additionally, 92 percentof residents ranked the qual-ity of life in Oviedo as“excellent or good,” along-side 95 percent of partici-pants who said they wouldrecommend the city as aplace to live. Eighty-sevenpercent said the city wascleanly, and 91 percent werehappy with recycling pro-grams in the past year.

Parks, recreation and

facilities were all in the 80percent range as well.

“This is all about theemployees, and they’vedone a great job,”Persampiere said. “We’revery pleased the results areas good as they are, and it’san incredible reflection onthe job our staff has beendoing, and on the work ourcouncil has been doing.”

Persampiere also notedthat he was pleased with the“public trust” portion of thesurvey. According to theresults, 66 percent of resi-dents were pleased withhow their tax money isbeing spent, 65 percent arehappy about the directionthe city is going, 61 percentare satisfied with the job ofcity government officialsand 89 percent were happywith the overall image of thecity. Persampiere said thesefigures are indications thatdecisions made at a citylevel are up to par with resi-dent expectations. In anational comparison,Oviedo ranked “muchabove” other cities in all theaforementioned categories.

“If you look at the publictrust portion, we are off thecharts this year, which tellsme we’re on the right track,”he said. “When folks havefaith in their governmentand elected officials, thingstend to run much smootherand you get a lot more done.I was very impressed withthe response we had gottenin that department.”

However, there weresome areas where the citydidn’t fare as well. Residentswere not pleased with shop-ping opportunities, 23 per-cent indicated that the cityranked “poor” in the catego-ry.

Employment was also anissue, as 37 percent rankedthe city as “poor” in regardsto employment opportuni-ties. Bus travel was also aconcern, with 26 percentranking it “poor.”

However, Persampieresaid the economy has hadan effect on some of thoseareas.

Alongside the good newsthe survey bore, the city wasalso named for a third yearin a row one of the top 100cities to live byRelocateAmerica, and is inthe final running to be in thetop 10. RelocateAmericaoffers relocating consumersa directory of more than6,000 community profiles

to research and review use-ful information about thelocal housing market, theculture of each community,activities and local business-es.

Between the survey andthe news concerningRelocateAmerica, allPersampiere had to say was,“Talk about being on a roll.”

“It’s a great time to be anelected official in the city ofOviedo,” he said. “ ‘Value ofservices,’ we are muchabove the national and thecomparatives. The ‘overalldirection we’re taking,’‘Much above. Much above.’Overall image, ‘Much above.Much above.’ It’s just unrealwhen you’re looking at this.”

The motto at the newOviedo Premier Dental is“Creating Smiles for YourFuture,” which representsmore than a business slo-gan; it’s a hope forexpanded clientele and anew take on dentistry.

The owner and doc-tor of dentistry at OviedoPremier, Dr. GeorgeYarko, has been buildinga client base in the EastOrlando and Oviedo areasince 1986.

“I was pretty much thefirst dentist that movedout this far east, down byUCF in East OrangeCounty,” Yarko said. “Ipulled from all of Oviedo,Geneva, Winter Springsand Titusville.”

According to Yarko,the patients he and hisassociate, MichaelSimpson, accumulatedover the years were tooabundant for his two for-mer practices, LockwoodDental and East OrlandoDental.

“We wanted toincrease the newest tech-nologies and patient con-veniences in the newoffice,” Yarko said. “Wewanted to be a premierdental facility, every-body’s dental office. Ourother offices were justtoo small for that.”

Oviedo PremierDental had a soft openingin October for their newoffice on MitchellHammock Road, and hasseen many of the formerpractice’s past customers.

However, according to

Yarko, they are looking toattract fresh clientele tothe new location.

Yarko said the neweight-room facility iscomplete with the latestdentistry technology,including a computer thatmanufactures crowns thesame day they’re needed.

The office will contin-ue to provide servicesthat the former practicesaccommodated, such asInvisalign, cosmetic fill-ings and veneers.

“He’s able to doimplants and time-inten-sive procedures that mostdentists aren’t able to do,”said Rick Rampi, the mar-keting coordinator forOviedo Premier. “Insteadof going out and referringthem to another dentist,they can do everythinghere. It’s a one-stop shop.”

Yarko aspires to even-tually provide furtherfacial cosmetic servicesin his office, such asBotox and Juvederminjections.

Both are skin fillersthat reduce facial wrin-kles.

“Dentists are startingto do this now forpatients. I haven’t takenthe courses yet, but that’sa future hope,” Yarko said.

In addition to his den-tal experience within theEast Orlando community,Yarko has worked as avolunteer dentist for theUniversity of CentralFlorida sports teamssince 1987.

Yarko provided vari-ous services for bothcoaches and players forsports ranging from

women’s cross country tosoccer.

He also made custommouthguards that make iteasier for the UCF footballplayers who are interviewedoften by media to speak.

“It’s helped my practicebecause I’ve gotten quite afew of the students and ath-letes who have stayed withmy practice, even at the new

office,” Yarko said. “Playerswho go off to the NFL stillcome and get their dentistrydone by me.”

Such players includeDaunte Culpepper, formerquarterback of theMinnesota Vikings, andAsante Samuel, cornerbackfor the Philadelphia Eagles.

Yarko and Simpson arehoping to rekindle their

relationship with past clien-tele, as well as reach out tonew patients, by hosting agrand-opening event fortheir new office.

The event will take placeat Oviedo Premier Dentalon June 30 from 5:30 p.m. to7:30 p.m.

“It’s kind of difficult tosee the building from theroad, so we’re trying to push

what the building looks likeat the event, and our logo. Alot of people drive past itand don’t know it’s a dentistoffice,” Rampi said.

The first 25 people toattend the event will receivea free spin brush, Rampisaid, and every guest willreceive coupons for examsand Invisalign treatment.

Oviedo Premier part-nered with five differentrestaurants for the event:Yogurtopia, Woody’s Bar-B-Q, Marco’s Pizza, TijuanaFlats and Bernie’s GourmetHamburgers, all of whichare providing free food forattendees. Free beer andwine will be provided byTim’s Wine Market.

“We’re going to have acontemporary artist there aswell, Paul Vincenti,” Rampisaid. “There will be half-a-dozen of his pieces there, sopeople in the Oviedo areacan come and check outsome artwork.”

The event will be opento the public.

“We want to get the wordout. The practice is top-notch,” Rampi said. “Whenyou become a patient here,it’s like you’re becoming apart of a family.”

Sarah Davis, of WinterSprings, representedFlorida in the JuvenileDiabetes Foundation’s 2011Children’s Congress, held inWashington, DC.

The congress took placeJune 20-22 as members ofthe Children’s Congressserved as a reminder toCongress that better treat-ments and a cure for type 1diabetes are still needed.

The 16-year-old was cho-sen from a pool of 1,200nationwide applicants,alongside 150 other dele-gates ages 4-17.

Davis was diagnosedwith diabetes when she wasnine years old.

“I seem like a normal

teenage girl,” Davis said.“But in my pocket, you willfind an insulin pump thatgives me insulin 24/7 tokeep me alive. In my purse,you will find glucose tabs,juice boxes and a blood glu-cose meter to tell me whatmy blood-sugar level is.”

The congress, which hasbeen held every other sum-mer since 1999, was led byJDRF InternationalChairman Mary TylerMoore. Moore, who hashad type 1 diabetes for closeto 40 years, was one ofmany who testified aboutthe need for continuedfunding for diabetesresearch during a Senatehearing.

“All of the children andtheir families can confirmwith me that type 1 diabetes

tests our will and determi-nation to live a normal life,”Moore said. “With JDRF’sChildren’s Congress, we areable to put faces to a diseasethat places an enormoustoll on our nation. It is also areminder for Congress thattheir partnership in thefight to find better treat-ments and a cure for type 1diabetes is essential and hashelped to drive researchprogress to date.”

According to JDRF,about 80 people a day arediagnosed with type 1 dia-betes in the U.S. That equals15,000 children and 15,000adults per year.

The Seminole State College ofFlorida held its 31st Nurses’Pinning Ceremony on June 20.

More than 100 registerednursing students graduated, and80 more are expected to walk onAug. 3. The ceremony was heldin Seminole State’s HealthCenter on the Sanford/LakeMary campus.

The President and CEO ofOrlando Health, Sherrie Sitarik,was the speaker at the ceremony.Her daughter, Stacey, 23, wasamong the graduates.

“My mom had mentionedSeminole State to me, so I lookedat it and was really impressed,”Stacey Sitarik said.

The Oviedo resident said thatshe knew she wanted to becomea nurse since she was a kid. Shecurrently works in the traumacenter of the Arnold Palmer

Hospital ER. In the future, shehopes to become a pediatricintensive care unit nurse.

Graduating with StaceySitarik was Jennifer Allen, 29, ofOrlando. Allen was pregnantthroughout the spring term andgave birth to her baby only twohours after her final exam.Appropriately, she wants tobecome a nurse-midwife.

Mom Jessica Reichert, 34, ofLake Mary, gave up her dream ofbecoming a nurse for anotherprofession.

“After my children were born,I realized I wasn’t happy doingwhat I was doing,” she said. “Ilove helping people, and nursingwas a natural fit.”

Reichert’s inspiration tobecome a nurse was her parents;her dad is a physician and hermom is a nurse. In August, shewill start working in the laborand delivery department ofFlorida Hospital South.

Nursing is also a family affairfor graduate Mellernese Harrisonof St. Cloud. Her mom, an auntand a cousin are all nurses. Whileraising her children and navigat-ing her way through an emotion-ally tough time in her life, the thir-ty-four-year-old decided to move

from her job as a police and cor-rections officer and on to herchildhood dream of nursing.

Michael Barranco, 34, ofWinter Springs, also had a careerin public service. He is a formerMarine and Homeland Securityspecial agent.

“To me, it falls right in line,”Barranco said. “I’ve always beenattracted to public service; in lawenforcement and public service,you take care of people who can’thelp themselves. Nursing is justanother qualification within thatpublic service realm.”

The only requirement isthat the senior makes itknown that they needhelp.

“We are doing this forour small base of cus-tomers, so we are trying totake it to the next level bygoing out into the commu-nity and letting peopleknow they can take advan-tage of the program,”Brahmbhatt said.

Brahmbhatt said theprogram helps cut downon the cost on medicationby eliminating transporta-tion expenses.

For instance, a seniorwho needs medication theday of their hospital ordoctor’s visit may alreadybe tied into a contract witha mail-order pharmacy.They can call in for themedication, and it will besent to them the day of, butsuch hasty deliveries dipdeeply into the wallets ofseniors.

“At the end of the daythey’re charging a trans-portation charge, which issometimes more than theprescription charge,”Brahmbhatt said.

Brahmbhatt said that atHealth Mart, the seniorsaren’t paying a transporta-tion fee, and the deliveryturnaround is quicker dueto the pharmacy beinglocated only a few milesfrom the local assisted liv-ing facilities.

However, seniors innursing homes or assistedliving facilities often getlocked into contracts withmail-order pharmacies, asthe facility may have a pre-ferred company that theywork with.

Brahmbhatt also saidthe administration at thesefacilities sometimes neg-lect to inform the residentsof other existing pharma-ceutical services, such as

those provided by HealthMart.

“It’s a big misconcep-tion that they cannotchoose the pharmacy thatthey want,” Brahmbhattsaid in reference to seniorsat assisted living facilities.“It’s unfortunate, becausethe law says that the assist-ed living facilities need toprovide them with alterna-tives, too, but the patientsaren’t informed.”

Anna Stenson, a seniorwho lives at LutheranHaven in Oviedo, foundherself unsure of how shewould receive her med-ication when she firstmoved into the retirementhome.

Her facility let herknow that Health Martwas a local pharmacy thatwould be willing to help.

“It was a traumaticpoint in my life where Ihad to give up all my inde-pendence to rely on some-one else all the time forsomething,” Stenson said.“But I can’t complain, I’vebeen well-treated.”

According to Stenson,who orders eight differentmedications from HealthMart, the pharmacy deliv-ers directly to her room.

“He’s trying to line upmy medication so I can geteverything I need for themonth all at one time,”Stenson said in referenceto Brahmbhatt. “I appreci-ate that, so I don’t have tokeep ordering and havingthem run over here. It’s agreat thing.”

Stenson said a pharma-cy technician, or occasion-ally Brahmbhatt himself,will bring the medicationto her.

“They have a nice deliv-ery girl that delivers to me.She’s so kind and so help-ful,” Stenson said. “Sheexplains to me things Idon’t understand, likemedicines I’m taking andwhat they do.”

The “nice delivery girl”is better known as MarissaMcInnis, a pharmacy tech-nician who has been withHealth Mart for a littleover a year.

“There are so manyseniors out there that don’tknow much about theirmedications,” McInnissaid. “Most people cancome into a pharmacy andask questions, and theseseniors don’t have thatoption. Patient contact isreally important.”

Another issue present-ed to seniors in assistedliving facilities is pharma-ceutical packaging.

Most facilities requirethat medication be pack-aged and given a namelabel before it can be dis-tributed to the residents.

Health Mart includesthis service in this senioroutreach program, even ifthe medication isn’t com-ing from the pharmacyitself.

“Sometimes a patientwill be using us until lastmonth, but then theirinsurance is making themuse a mail-order pharma-cy, which doesn’t providethe correct packaging,”Brahmbhatt said. “Theydon’t have a choice, but wedon’t want to leave themalone. In that situation wepackage their medicationfor them and deliver it, butwe do have to charge themnominally.”

Brahmbhatt said thatHealth Mart Oviedo willalso be providing a low-cost $4 prescription pro-gram for seniors, in com-petition with prescriptionsoffered in the same pricerange by Wal-Mart.

“What we’re doing ismatching the Wal-Martplan for the customers sothey don’t feel like we’retaking advantage of themwith higher prices,”Brahmbhatt said.

Health Mart will also be

extending the $4 blanket-fee to several of their over-the-counter medications.

According toBrahmbhatt, another serv-ice that sets the OviedoHealth Mart apart fromWal-Mart, Walgreens andother pharmaceuticalchains is something calledprescription compound-ing.

“Sometimes tabletswon’t work for a patient,so we can make medica-tions in a different form sothe medication is taken

better,” Brahmbhatt said.In this situation,

Brahmbhatt and his tech-nicians make the com-pounded prescription in-shop because they aren’tcommercially available.

“We are the only phar-macy in the area that doesthat,” Brahmbhatt said.“Big pharmacies do itwhen they’re forced to,but when we make it, itstill comes out cheaperthan the commercialproduct.”

Brahmbhatt said the

program’s main goal is tomake life easier for seniorcitizens, even if it takesmore effort on the phar-macy’s part.

“Nobody’s looking outfor these people’s inter-ests. You’ll see lobbyists ofevery single kind, but noneto help out the seniors,”Brahmbhatt said. “Theyuse us as a pharmacy alltheir life. This is how weare giving back to them —not charging them nickeland dime for everythingwe do.”

The committee estab-lished three zoning propos-als to present to the board.In last week’s meeting, theboard approved option 2(pictured at right) as a rec-ommendation and willestablish final action July12.

“There’s so many differ-ent combinations, andthere were 64 differentplans we had, so it wasquite a job to find one thatreally made sense,” saidDeputy SuperintendentGeorge Kosmac, whoworked directly with thecommittee. “There werethree good plans they rec-ommended to the schoolboard. Dr. Vogel took pub-lic comments into the situ-ation, and recommendedone of them, which wasOption 2. There is anadvertising period of 28days and the the item willbe voted upon at the publicmeeting in July.”

Kosmac said the com-mittee worked with a com-puter program that allowedthe group to put togetherthe school zones much likea complicated puzzle. Thecommittee, composed oftwo representatives fromeach school, includingLongwood Elementary,teamed up to compare thegeography of the schoolzones to make the changesas seamless as possible.

Superintendent BillVogel said the committeetook several factors intoconsideration when rezon-ing the school districts,including free and reducedlunch students, capacityand student movement.

“The plan is that the stu-dents are redistributed, andno school is over capacityand it also minimizes themovement of schools,”Vogel said. “The onlyschool that had to movestudents was WinterSprings, who had to move71 students to Layer.”

Existing students atWinter Springs Elementarywho are rezoned to a newschool district will havesome options, though.Fifth-graders will be grand-

fathered in, and their sib-lings will be allowed to stayfor another year. Of thefour existing schools thatwill receive students,Winter Springs will wel-come 190 students from

Longwood Elementary,while Highlands will get110, Woodlands will get 82and Layer will get 71 newstudents.

“The population of allthe schools were low,”

Vogel said. “We had $9.8million in improvementsscheduled for Longwood,and the other schools arenewer. The boardapproved my recommen-dation to suspend opera-

tions for the 2011-12 schoolyear. I think they [the com-mittee] certainly wouldhave rather had Longwoodremain open, but I thinkthey were, overall, pleasedwith the process.”

honey, plants and a varietyof other locally-madeproducts, the event willtake place from 9 a.m. to 2p.m. that Saturday and willcontinue on the firstSaturday of every month.The Farmer’s Market willtake place on the groundsof the Lawton House onWest Broadway neardowntown.

“This is a project thatwill be for the community,involving the community,”said Nita Rawlson, chair ofthe event committee forthe Oviedo HistoricalSociety. “We’ve tried to setthis up as much as wecould with local vendors,and by that I mean folksfrom Geneva, Chuluota,Oviedo and a couple fromWinter Springs. This is soour local people wouldhave a market where theywouldn’t have to travel asfar as they go to Farmer’sMarkets in Lake Mary,Winter Park and Maitland.And so far, the responsehas just been tremendous.”

The event was thebrainchild of Lars White,

Oviedo fire chief and pres-ident of the OviedoHistorical Society, whosaid it was due time thecity had a market of theirown. With the LawtonHouse being open everySaturday to the public any-way, he said the venue wasthe perfect place. Vendorswill be charged a $15 feeand electricity will be

available for an additional$5.

“We were looking for acreative way to establish alittle bit of a revenuesource to the society and

to offer something a littledifferent to the communi-ty,” he said. “We know howsuccessful Winter Park,Sanford and Lake Maryhave been in doing this,

From MARKET | A1

and we’re pretty sure wecan do the same thing.We just want to be care-ful and offer a tradition-al market and not turn itinto a craft show or agarage sale. It needs tobe meaningful, andthese things can sustainthemselves if theyembrace the traditionalstyle.”

White and Rawlsonsaid vendors arerestricted to locallygrown products only.Crafters and otherartists and vendors willnot be part of this event.

“This is an event thatwill keep a very home-town, small-town feel-ing to Oviedo, eventhough the populationhas increased so much,”said Rawlson.

Likewise, right nextdoor in Winter Springsanother Farmer’sMarket will be bustlingwith activity, but hereyou may find a moreestablished place oflocal business. TheWinter Springs Farmer’smarket has been aroundsince 2006, said AngieFederici, coordinator.Starting as a small gath-ering in the parking lotof the TuskawillaSquare, the Farmer’sMarket has since movedto the Winter SpringsTown Center where it isheld every Saturdayfrom 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.Occurring on a weeklybasis, versus a monthlybasis like Oviedo’sevent, the market offerslocally grown produce,honey, plants, bakedgoods and crafters.Federici said she allowsmost vendors as long asthey don’t turn the eventinto a business expo.

“This is importantbecause you’re support-ing the local vendors.You’re promoting healthand wellness and it’s herejust to have a great com-munity place, for commu-nity people to meet andnetwork,” said Federici.

The cost for vendorsat the Winter SpringsFarmer’s Market is $15 forthe space and extra if youneed to rent a canopy.

“I did this because Ilove Farmer’s Markets. Ilove fresh produce. Ilove building local busi-nesses,” said Federici,explaining her passionfor the big undertakingshe considers a side job.“I love people who havea talent who don’t reallyhave a place to displaytheir talent.”

Still, Allison Sieger,

owner of Ready, Set,Grow and a newcomerto the Winter SpringsFarmer’s Market, saysshe hopes more peoplewill start attending. Shesaid she has done well inthe two weeks she hasparticipated, but hopesto see an increase of foottraffic.

“I really like the area.Winter Springs andOviedo are really nicetowns,” said Sieger, whocommutes from EastOrlando. “I think weneed a little betteradvertising, but for themost part I think itworks. I just think itwould be really good ifwe could get a littlemore traffic in.”

Now that both com-munities will now offerFarmer’s Markets oftheir own, residents arebuzzing with enthusi-asm.

“I think it will be agreat addition becausewe don’t have anythinglike this in Oviedo,” saidCindy Barson, a resi-dent. “We’re in a niceup-and-coming, littleboomer town, but if peo-ple want healthylifestyles, this will givethem an opportunity toshop for fruits and veg-etables and see eachother, as it’s sort of asocial event. EveryoneI’ve talked to about it areall so excited.”

Barson said she willdefinitely be attendingthe opening event inOviedo on July 2, butwill also be accompany-ing her husband,Michael Barson, ownerof Hot Diggity Dad.Michael Barson said hewill be there and readyto sell hot dogs andsausages to all the hun-gry guests the event isexpected to attract. Heagreed that the event iscreating quite the buzz.

“We’ve lived inOviedo 14 years, and I’mtired of having to driveto Winter Park to go to aFarmer’s Market,” hesaid. “I think it will begreat for everyone tocome, stay local and gethome-grown things.”

Jordan Rasinski justwanted to play baseball.

So when he receivedthe news from UCF base-ball head coach TerryRooney that he was goingto be cut from the Knightsbaseball team during the2010 season, he was dev-astated.

Rasinski, who attendedUCF with four of hisother Winter SpringsHigh School teammatesout of high school, wascut from the team alongwith three other WinterSprings players.

“We were all hoping

that we would have agreat year and get plentyof playing time,” Rasinskisaid. “But we had the newhead coach in TerryRooney, and he wasn’treally for us. That’s whatit all came down to: weweren’t his guys.”

This wasn’t the firsttime Rasinski had facedadversity.

At Winter Springs,where he was a standoutpitcher for four yearsalong with the Bears’quintet of UCF-boundstuds, he had to sit out hisentire senior seasonbecause of Tommy Johnsurgery.

“Sitting out for Jordan

was tough for him justbecause he couldn’t com-pete with the other guys; Idon’t know if I’ll ever havea pitching staff like thatagain,” said Jeff Perez, theWinter Springs headcoach.

It was hard forRasinski, who was theBears’ MVP as a freshmanand threw over 92 mph atthe time, to sit out frombaseball an entire year.

“My junior year wasawesome because that’swhen we really competedand my senior year I hadto get the surgery,”Rasinski said. “Winter

BOTH WAYS: Oviedo’s C.J. Slater looks to make his markon both sides of ball this season.

Stepping up

June 23 - 29, 2011

Sports

By Steven RyzewskiTHE CHRONICLE

It sort of goes without saying, but every year in every sport atany given high school, athletes graduate.

More importantly, though, key players graduate and leaveholes to be filled, both in terms of on-field performance and lead-ership.

The Oviedo High School Lions are no stranger to this situation.Before the 2010 season, the Lions had to deal with the formidabletask of replacing star quarterback Blake Bortles. This season, thereplacements may be most important on the other side of the ball,with defensive standouts such as John Boston, Tyler Chaudoinand Justin Jones having graduated.

And even with All-County linebacker Tyler Foto, standing 6-foot, 210 pounds, widely regarded as having the most star poweron Oviedo’s roster heading into the fall, there are plenty of play-ers ready to step-up as the summer progresses and fall nears.

One of those is dual-threat C.J. Slater.Slater, listed at 6-foot-2 and 205 pounds, excelled last sea-

son at defensive end and linebacker, recording 9.5 sacks,according to Scout.com. This season, Slater is expected tohelp anchor the Lions’ linebacker corps alongside Foto,and the rising senior also hopes to get some more looks

as a running back for Oviedo, something he has beenpursuing since his sophomore year.

“I’m just working more on being explosive so Ican play more on the offensive side of the ball

this year for my team and help them win,”Slater said. “I’m trying to move up on the

depth charts (at running back) so I canbe able to start both ways.”

Slater, who was named to theAll Seminole AthleticConference team as a junior,said the biggest improvementhe made between his sopho-more and junior years wasfocusing more on his coaches’teaching, listening more. That,he says, led to him being a morecomplete player last season.

Now, though, Slater is look-ing to take his athleticism toanother level.

“The biggest improvement Ineed is I feel like I need to bebigger, faster and stronger, andalso I need to get smarter with-in the game,” he said.In addition to the improve-

ments he hopes to achieve throughhis workouts, Slater says he recognizes

the need for leadership on a defensiveunit that lost some of its leaders to gradu-

ation.“I feel like it’s finally my team now. I talked

to John (Boston) about it also; he told me heknows I’ve got to step up,” Slater said. “He gaveme advice on how to lead the team; you’ve got tolead by example on and off the field. We havesome big shoes to fill.”

Despite facing down a task that can at timesseem daunting, Slater is confident and optimisticabout the Lions’ prospects entering the 2011 sea-son.

“We’ve got a lot of young talent on defense,”Slater said. “I feel like we’ll be able to do well this

“We feel like how weleft the playoffs the last twoyears, this is our year tofinally make the statechampionship game.”

Thanks to his perform-ance last year, Slater hassome interest from col-leges, providing moremotivation heading into hissenior season. Slater sayshe has been in contact withSouth Florida, Miami,Northwestern and Elon,among other schools.

He says among otherthings, he knows he mustimprove in the classroomto separate himself amongthe many recruitingprospects. Slater also sayshe recognized the impor-tance of his senior year tohis aspirations at the colle-giate level.

“I haven’t been able togo to a lot of camps and all,like others have beendoing. So I’m waiting forthe season to start to really

Springs was great. We hadfive guys that went toUCF, but unfortunatelywe split up.”

After being released byUCF, Rasinski then had achoice — give up baseballand finish up college likea regular student or trans-fer to play baseball some-where else. He lovedbaseball too much to stopplaying, so he decided totransfer.

If Rasinski would havetransferred to anothercollege within Division I,he would have had to sitout a year due to NCAAtransfer rules.

“I was allowed totransfer anywhere exceptwithin Conference USA(UCF’s conference),”Rasinski said.

Sitting out of baseballanother year wasn’t anoption for Rasinski, so hedecided to follow formerWinter Springs teammateJason Postill’s footsteps toplay Division II baseballat University of West

Florida in Pensacola“The main reason I

came up here werebecause my friends wereup here,” Rasinski said. “Ididn’t hang out witheveryone at UCF. I wasn’tfriends with everyone.When I got up here, we allhung out, and it got uscloser as a team.”

The decision paid off— the Argonauts of UWFrecently were crownedthe national champions ofNCAA Division II base-ball.

“It feels great,”Rasinski said. “Comingfrom a D-1 school down toa D-2 school, it feels awe-some to win a worldseries right off the batwith this team.”

Rasinski is now focus-ing his summer before hissenior season on throw-ing more strikes andworking his way into theArgos starting rotation.

“That’s what I’ve want-ed to do ever since highschool,” Rasinski said. “Iwant to be a starter againand get back to where Iwas in high school.”

Domonique Gonzalezwas desperate. At 17 yearsold, she didn’t know whichway to turn, for she hadbeen getting into fightsand running with thewrong crowd since herearly teens.

After several movesbetween family membersfrom Chicago to Oviedo,Gonzalez eventuallydropped out of school com-pletely at the beginning ofher sophomore year.

With few prospects onthe horizon, Gonzalezreturned to Oviedo andcontinued on her troubledpath, eventually gettingherself kicked out of hermother’s house. Her futurelooked bleak until a local

mentor encouraged her totake the first step towardpositive change byenrolling in the FloridaYouth ChalleNGeAcademy.

That’s when Gonzaleztook back her life.

They came in droves — people young and oldcarrying foldable beach chairs and large blankets

across the pavement, eagerto experience the newestfood sensation.

The Oviedo Mall parkinglot was abuzz as an estimated2,000 people gathered onJune 12 to taste the ultimatein Central Florida cuisine atthe first TheDailyCity.comOviedo Food Truck Bazaar.From fish tacos and Korean-style barbeque to deep friedOreos, Twinkies and peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches,there was a special treat forevery palate.

Mark Baratelli, CEO ofProducing LLC and producerof the event, said he is gladthe area is embracing thefood truck concept.

“It’s fun to think that wecan transform a plain old

parking lot into this fun evening bazaar. It’s a greatre-thinking and re-use of existing spaces,” Baratellisaid in an email. “We’ll keep coming back as long as

Oviedo, UCF and Winter Springs keeps comingout.”

Introducing people to new foods and creating anamazing food truck scene has long been a dream forBaratelli.

During a few national tours as an actor, Baratellisaid he saw more than a hundred American citiesand his fair share of food trucks.

“When I got back to Orlando in 2009, someonetold me there were food trucks in Orlando, and I waslike, ‘Why is no one talking about this?’ ” Baratellisaid.

In 2009 he started meet ups called “TacoTruck Taste Tests” and readers of his blog,TheDailyCity.com, would meet at one truck

at a time and sample the food.“In January 2011, a food truckowner told me about Miami’sgrowing food truck sceneand said if anyone in townshould start a food truckevent it should be me. Iwas humbled by his confi-

dence in me, and tooka gamble and triedit,” Baratelli said.

“It was marinatedchicken and steak withcoleslaw and sweet pota-to fries with a barbequetangy sauce all togetheron one sandwich. It wasunbelievable; where elsecould I go to get some-thing like that?” she said.

Marini said going tothe event with friendsadded to the excitement.

“There were six adultsand six kids and we werehaving a blast getting dif-ferent foods,” she said.

For nearly two hours,Marini said her familyrelaxed in the parking lotamong friends andshared all sorts of delec-table foods includingmacaroni and cheesewith bacon and fourkinds of cheese andmouth-watering ribs.

While lines were longat times, Marini said shewouldn’t want the foodprepared like fast-food.

“They can only do somuch at a time, so I think

they handled it well,” shesaid. “If they are only ableto make four sandwichesat once and there are 20people in line, it will takea while. But it’s not like Iwent there in a hurry.”

Steffes said mall man-agement was very happywith the June bazaarturnout.

“We can only hope tocontinue to expand onthat,” Steffes added.During the upcoming

July 10 bazaar, for exam-ple, the Oviedo Mall willbe giving away a“Summertime Getawayto Gaylord Palms” pack-age which will include atwo-night, one room stayat Gaylord Palms for upto four people.

Steffes, who said shedined on a fish taco fromWinter Park FishCompany and a sliderfrom Firehouse BBQtruck while she worked

“There was a goodvibe and everyone was sofriendly. All the foodtrucks just wanted toshare their creations witheveryone,” Steffes said. “Ihave a couple moremonths to try everythingelse. I want to hit them allup.”

Oviedo Mall marketingmanager Sara Steffes said themall was pleased to partnerwith TheDailyCity.com tobring the first food truckevent to Oviedo.

“I definitely think it’s agood event for [the area]; itbrings people from all dif-ferent communities,” shesaid. “It’s also a good idea tohave something new anddifferent that is family-friendly and held outdoors,I think everybody in Floridalikes to be outdoors.”

Winter Springs residentTracy Marini said she and

her family met friends for acausal dinner, tailgatingstyle, at the Oviedo Malllocation.

“My son, who is 8 yearsold, and I had gotten into(watching) the FoodNetwork Great Food TruckRace a good year ago, andwe wondered why we hadnever seen food trucksaround here. So when I sawon Facebook that it wascoming to Oviedo, I thought,‘This is so cool — food out ofa truck,’ ” she said.

didn’t have anything,” shesaid. “It was hard at firstbecause I knew I wasgoing to miss five-and-a-half months of the regularworld, but I knew it was agood choice.”

June 11 marked a newlife for Gonzalez, as shegraduated with 135 stu-dents from the academy.

“It was probably thebest graduation I haveever been to …. We wererecognized so much morebecause there were lessstudents (than a typicalschool). It was the bestexperience in my life,” shesaid.

Today, at nearly 18years old with a highschool diploma in hand,Gonzalez said she is readyto conquer the world.Upon graduation,Gonzalez was asked tointern at the YouthChalleNGe Foundation in

Washington, DC.“I have my own little

desk area and it’s reallyofficial,” she said.

Gonzalez said shehopes the internship willlead to a permanent job. Ifnot, she also has dreams ofgoing to a technical schooland becoming a barber.

Gonzalez said the timeshe spent at the academytaught her so many life les-sons.

“I didn’t know patience;I was really quick to fightbefore I came and didn’tcare what people said. Butyou have no choice [at theacademy]; you can’t getout of it. It’s either right orwrong and you have totake it,” Domonique said.“I got in my share of trou-ble … but once you dosomething wrong, youhave no choice but to learnfrom your mistakes. Likeour director said, ‘Wedon’t make mistakes, wemake choices.’ ”

Another vital lesson,

Gonzalez said, was learn-ing self respect, somethingshe said she never hadbefore.

“I didn’t care what I didto my body and I didn’tcare what I let people doto me, and I think I learnedfrom that because now Ihold myself to a higherstandard,” she said.

Youth ChalleNGeDirector Danny Brabhamsaid it’s always rewardingfor the staff when they wit-ness the young adultsmature over the course offive-and-a-half months.

“Graduation day makesall the headaches and thetroubles we go throughevery day worth it. Weknow how they are whenthey come to us and wesee the positive changesthey have made … every-one has tears rolling downtheir cheeks,” Brabhamsaid.

Brabham said mostgraduates keep in touchbeyond the mandatory 12-

month period followinggraduation from the acad-emy.

“Every time someonedoes something reallygood we hear about it andwe’re all jumping up anddown clapping about it,”he said.

Domonique said shesometimes wonderswhere she would be todayhad she not been a part ofthe Florida NationalGuard’s Youth ChalleNGeprogram.

“I would probably be ina ditch somewhere. If Ididn’t enter the program, Iprobably would be doingdrugs, fighting and hang-ing out with the wrongpeople,” she said.

Gonzalez said she wasamazed that people whoshe had never met beforecared so much for her atthe academy.

“I never met such goodpeople,” she said. “Itchanged the course of mylife.”

Mission’s endThe following editorial appeared in

the Chicago Tribune on June 15

“Roaring into space on two mightyblowtorches and a magnificent columnof steam, the space shuttle Columbiawas given a go-ahead Sunday to com-plete the 54 1/2-hour mission that isexpected to open a new space frontier.The liftoff — the world’s most spectac-ular space launch — awed veteranspace watchers at the Kennedy SpaceCenter here.” — Chicago Tribune, April13, 1981.

Thirty years ago, space shuttleColumbia arced into the sky at CapeCanaveral, carrying aloft America’shopes for a thrilling sequel to theApollo 11 moon landing.

Challenger. Discovery. Endeavour.Atlantis. Columbia. Those shuttlenames conjured the spirit of explorationand the risks that came with exploringuncharted — and unforgiving — territo-ry.

NASA promised the shuttle wouldbe like no other spacecraft everlaunched. And it was. It launched like arocket, circled the globe and swoopedto Earth like a jetliner — a symbol ofAmerican technical prowess. From zeroto 17,500 mph in just over eight minutes.

But other NASA promises didn’t panout: The shuttle didn’t pay for itself byreaping millions of dollars from privatecompanies eager to score scientificbonanzas in zero gravity. And thatambitious shuttle schedule envisionedby NASA, launching a mission justabout every week? That proved to belaughably optimistic.

If all goes as planned, Atlantisstreaks into space on July 8, the 135thand final shuttle mission.

What a long, strange trip it’s been.Sure, there were thrills along the

way. Those amazing spacewalks. Thetriumph of sending into space the firstAmerican woman, Sally Ride, and thefirst African-American, Guion Bluford,little more than a month apart in thesummer of 1983. The launch of the daz-zling Hubble Space Telescope to helpunravel the mystery of the Big Bang.

But the shuttle more often fizzled inthe Igniting-America’s-Imaginationdepartment. It was always in the shopfor repairs. You never knew when itwould launch or land because theweather had to be just right. The craft’stechnology showed its age: Flight deckcomputers often used outdated chips,“the sort of pre-Pentium electronics noself-respecting teenager would dreamof using for a video game,” one criticwrote.

And where, exactly, did it go? Intolow Earth orbit, a glorified 18-wheeler inspace, hauling astronauts, spare partsand scientific equipment to the interna-tional space station. Astronauts alsofixed balky toilets. And on one shuttleflight, Coke and Pepsi convinced NASAto do an experiment to determine if car-bonated beverages could be dispensedin weightlessness. They could.

■ ■ ■

What Americans will remembermost are the disasters.

Challenger, 73 seconds into itsJanuary 1986 voyage, exploding.

Tendrils of smoke and a plume ofdebris against an ice-blue sky. Thewords of a stunned Mission Controlpublic information officer: “Flight con-trollers here are looking very carefullyat the situation. Obviously a major mal-function.” Seven crew members died,including schoolteacher ChristaMcAuliffe.

A national commission pinpointedmany problems that were fixed. But onewasn’t: A NASA culture that often val-ued an aggressive launch schedule oversafety.

Then Columbia, 16 minutes to land-ing, in February 2003. Debris landed ina wide swath from Texas to Louisiana.A different culprit: A briefcase-sizedchunk of foam insulation that brokeloose during launch and damaged a fewof the 24,000-plus bricklike heat-protec-tion tiles on the shuttle’s belly.

Engineers had identified — and fret-ted over — that Achilles heel since thefirst launch.

On the day after the Columbia acci-dent, the Chicago Tribune said it“should teach children and adults alikemore than the calibrations of dangerand loss that can reduce life to an exer-cise in caution. … It is crucial, too, tocherish the joy of exploration that pro-pelled these seven Columbia astronautsaloft — and that boldly survives them inthe clear blue sky.”

So … what now for the Americanspace program? There’s still plenty ofadventure, even without manned flights.NASA will send a probe hurtling intoJupiter’s orbit to learn more about theplanet’s origins. Another Mars roverwill assess whether Mars is — or everwas — able to support microbial life, astep in determining the planet’s habit-ability.

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer, agiant supercooled magnet, will probefor signs of mysterious “dark matter”that physicists believe pervades the uni-verse. It could solve a cosmic mysteryabout the stuff of the universe, or, asone report suggested, it could become“a $1.5 billion hood ornament on theinternational space station.”

And what of all those astronauts-in-waiting, those intrepid souls whosigned up to get slung into space on aglider bolted to a rocket? What happensto those with the right stuff … at thewrong time? They’ll have to be verypatient. Or find another line of work.

We don’t know when a generation ofastronauts will push into deep space, toMars or beyond. But we do know it willhappen. It will happen because peelingback barriers, despite the dangers, ormaybe because of them … is tangleddeep in human DNA.

“A spacecraft is a metaphor ofnational inspiration,” author GreggEasterbrook wrote in Time magazine in2003: “Majestic, technologicallyadvanced, produced at dear cost andentrusted with precious cargo, risingabove the constraints of Earth. Thespacecraft carries our secret hope thatthere is something better out there — aworld where we may someday go andleave the sorrows of the past behind.”

Discovery, Atlantis and Endeavourwill join Columbia and Challenger atrest.

The shuttle ends. Not the journey.

Uncertain cellphoneperil? Get used to itThe following editorial appeared in

the San Jose Mercury News on June 6.

“Medicine is a science of uncertain-ty and an art of probability.”

That bit of wisdom is attributed toSir William Osler, the first professorof medicine at Johns Hopkins and thedoctor often referred to as the fatherof modern medicine. His insight onthe subject of health risk can illumi-nate today’s cellphone safety debate.

People are having a hard timeinterpreting the finding last week by aWorld Health Organization panel thatcellphones are “possibly carcino-genic.” Some talk of giving up thephones — or at least going to speaker-phone-only.

Others chided the WHO panel fornot being more specific about the risk.Still others were surprised to learnthat the finding was not the result ofnew information but a conclusionreached after reviewing numerousexisting studies.

So have a cup of coffee — which,by the way, is on the same list of pos-sible carcinogens — and accept thisfor what it is: The sharing of the besthealth information we have from abody of knowledge that’s constantlygrowing.

Scientists themselves aren’t sure ofthe risk. So they’re doing what thebest of them do under the circum-stances: calling attention to what theydo know, and telling cellphone usersto use their own judgment from theavailable science — most of whichindicates that if there is a risk, it’s rela-tively small. Meanwhile, scientistscontinue to review data, consider newhypotheses and test them as rigorous-ly as possible. We’re lucky that theydo.

It’s frustrating to get inconclusiveinformation, but waiting until danger

or safety is proven absolutely wouldbe far worse. Imagine how you’d feelif word came out of the blue that afteryears of study, cellphones wereproven to be deadly.

You’d be furious that you hadn’tgotten a hint of a warning earlier.

Many people stopped smoking, ortried to, long before the danger wasproved beyond a doubt.

We’ve seen this sort of nuancefrom researchers before, and we’veseen their conclusions change overtime. The industrial chemical bispho-nel A is an example. Once uncon-vinced of any danger from BPA, theFood and Drug Administration contin-ued to evaluate data and now wantsthe plastics industry to stop using thematerial in baby bottles and infantfeeding cups.

The World Health Organizationscientists couldn’t say how large orsmall a risk cellphone radiation maypose. So they classified it in Group 2Bout of five possible categories of risk.

Group 1 is the most toxic sub-stances, with proven causes of cancersuch as smoking and asbestos high onthe list. Group 2A is for probable car-cinogens such as creosotes, dieselexhaust and use of sun beds. Group2B contains the “possibly carcino-genic” threats, placing cellphones inthe company of more than 220 chemi-cals, pesticides and other potentialdangers, including that cup of coffee.Group 3 and Group 4 items are con-sidered to be less risky, but new infor-mation is being gathered constantly.

The renowned Sir William Oslerbelieved that thoroughness is the mostdifficult virtue to acquire in the med-ical field — “but it is the pearl of greatprice, worth all the worry and troubleof the search.”

Text that to all your cellphonefriends.
