A state regulatory agency ordered thecompany to refund $54 million to cus-tomers last week, yet many Duke Energycustomers remain unhappy about beingcharged for $3.2 billion in failed nuclearpower plant projects.
And one candidate for the Florida Houseis feeling the heat.
Danny Burgess, the former Zephyrhillsmayor looking to replace Will Weatherfordin Tallahassee, had to answer some toughquestions from a crowd during a forum atLexington Oaks recently about accepting acampaign contribution from Duke, and howthat might affect his stance on what the na-tion’s largest utility is charging Floridaresidents.
“The answer is very simple: nobody canbuy my vote,” Burgess said. “I have been veryfortunate to receive a lot of local support,and I have to be able to lay down my head
at night. When I make a decision, it’s forevery single person in this room.”
Burgess, like other Legislature candidatesfrom both parties, accepted a $1,000 contri-bution from Duke on July 25. He alsoreceived indirect support from Dukethrough a $2,000 contribution from theRepublican Party of Florida, according tostate campaign finance records, an organiza-tion that has received $100,000 from Dukethis year, as well as in-kind donations of$32,250.
Duke customers pay a $3.45 surchargeon their bills each month to help fund thecompany’s closed nuclear power plant inCrystal River, as well as the cancelled nu-clear power plant project in Levy County.

When the Benedictine Sisters ofFlorida arrived in East Pascofrom Elk County, Pennsylvania,
in 1889, they lived in a three-story hotel inSan Antonio.
This week, they’re hosting an openhouse at their new quarters, marking anoth-er major milestone in their 125-year historyin Pasco County.
The new Holy Name Monastery replacesthe sisters’ former quarters, which were in a100,000-square-foot structure across StateRoad 52.
Saint Leo University purchased that build-ing in October 2012, along with someadditional acreage from the sisters. The pur-chase helped cover the cost of the new28,000-square-foot monastery. The sisters alsoconducted a capital campaign for $500,000.
Like any new home, there are advantages
and disadvantages.The sisters have less space. However, the
old multi-story structure where they hadlived since 1960 had become too large forthem and too expensive to operate andmaintain.
Sister Mary Romana Gomez is delightedwith the sisters’ new home.
“I just thank God for a dream come true,”she said.
“I’m just in awe,” added Sister MargaretMary Roberts.
“It’s what we wanted,” Sister Jean Abbottagreed.
Visitors arriving at the monastery, at12138 Wichers Road, will be greeted in asmall lobby, which is flanked by stainedglass windows representing Saint Benedictand his sister, Saint Scholastica.
The chapel is large and in a place ofprominence, signifying its important role inthe monastery. Furnishings for the chapelwere moved there from the former
monastery’s chapel.Other features of the new monastery in-

West Winds Assisted Living Facility is nolonger locally owned.
The 75-bed for-profit facility, located at37411 Eiland Blvd., in Zephyrhills, was soldOct. 1 to Sabra Health Care Holdings III,which lists its address in Irvine, California,according to Pasco County propertyrecords.
West Winds Prime LLC was the seller. ThePalm Harbor company’s ownership has es-sentially managed the facility throughvarious companies since West Windsopened in 2008.
Sabra is a real estate investment trust thatacquires senior citizen housing, memory careand skilled nursing facilities around the coun-try. It purchased West Winds for $10.2 million,adding it to six skilled nursing facilities andthree senior housing facilities Sabra pur-chased through the first half of 2014 for$141.5 million, according to its filing with theU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
It’s not clear how many facilities pur-chased recently, but a newspaper in Nashvillereported the REIT closed on a facility there
around the same time for $21.1 million.Real estate investment trusts, or REITs,
are financial securities that allow investorsto buy ownership into a property or mort-gage, rather than in a company that typicallybe found on the stock market. Investors insuch projects usually earn a percentage ofprofit from rents or fees collected from ten-ants in those properties, and would receivea portion of any profits made when theREIT sells that project to someone else.
Through the end of June, Sabra alreadyowned six skilled nursing facilities inFlorida, according to the company’s web-site. That includes a 107-bed campus in FortPierce the company purchased last March aspart of a two-facility, $24.5 million deal.
West Winds did not respond to a requestfor comment.
This is the third largest real estate transac-tion in Pasco this year, behind the $36.1 million sale of the Arlington atNorthwood apartment complex in WesleyChapel, and the $16 million sale of more than330 acres of land in Wiregrass Ranch to makeway for a proposed 550-home subdivision.
Both of those transactions took place inMay.

It wasn’t a huge crowd, but pets and their owners seem to enjoy the Blessing of the Pets ceremony on Oct. 2 at the East Pasco Hospice Care Center. Standing, from left are Cathy Costanzo andher dog, Tickles, of Zephyrhills; Gwendolyn Burk with Tank and Pumpkin of Wesley Chapel; HPH Hospice chaplain Carl Hemphill; and HPH Hospice East Pasco County coordinator, Liz Helms.Seated are, from left, HPH Hospice communications manager Jane Freeman, Lew Barbieri and pet Belle of San Antonio, Betty Walker and Dolly of Zephyrhills, and Sarah Hooks and Pumpkin.
Belle, a 7-year-old boxer, looks like he may be saying ‘hallelujah,’ or maybe ‘amen.’ There’sanother possibility, too. Belle, owned by Lew Barbieri of San Antonio, is yawning just as theBlessing of the Pets ceremony is drawing to a close.
Like HPH Hospice chaplain Carl Hemphill, Dolly,a 6-year-old poodle belonging to Betty Walker ofZephyrhills, was having her first Blessing of thePets experience. Dolly was a natural. While sit-ting in her carry harness, she bowed her headas her owner read along during the prayer.
Pumpkin, an 8-year-old terrier and dachs-hund mix, checks out the other dogs at theBlessing of the Pets ceremony on Oct. 2 inDade City.
FRED BELLET/PHOTOS Tickles, a 5-year-old poodle terrier mix, was as quiet as a church mouse during the blessingceremony. He was the first of six dogs to be blessed during the service, and belongs toCathy Costanzo of Zephyrhills.

ing the Oct. 2 ceremony, but his wordslifted the spirits of their human com-panions, too.
The blessing was a first for some ofthe animals gathered, but they weren’talone. It also was the first time thatHemphill had delivered a blessing to ananimal.

If you wanted to do some bowling inZephyrhills on Sept. 19, you probably had along wait.
Around 200 Special Olympics bowlerswere knocking down pins, laughing andshowing off hard-earned ribbons at PinChasers, 6816 N. Gall Blvd., in WesleyChapel.
Athletes from eight area middle and highschools packed the lanes in two sessions atthe event, which was part of SpecialOlympics’ Fall Classic season. Gymnasticsand softball also are part of the season,which begins with county games beforemoving to area competition and the stategames in November.
According to Judy Brunner, county coor-dinator for Special Olympics Florida, theathletes get excited about bowling day,which combines competition with socializa-tion and fun.
“They look forward to it for weeks and
weeks,” Brunner said. “They love being here,they love showing off their abilities. They es-pecially love getting that ribbon to takehome.”
The event is good for family members aswell, she said. Like little league or other or-ganized sports activities for traditionalstudents, parents come out to SpecialOlympics events to support their athletes,watch them perform, and see them interactin a social setting.
Holland Meeker was one of those proudparents at the bowling alley. Her daughter,Maryanne, has learning and speech disabili-ties, and doesn’t usually enjoy socialsettings. But Special Olympics bowling wasdifferent, and she had been looking forwardto the event.
“Since (Maryanne) found out she wasgoing to be participating, she was super ex-cited,” Meeker said. “She’s enjoying herselfgreatly.”
Her attitude was a welcome surprise forher grandmother, Pamela Stewart, who alsocame out to watch Maryanne bowl.
“It’s great because she’s an introvert.Even if she’s at my house, she just sits thereby herself,” she said. “Maryanne couldn’twait to come.”
Maryanne, an eighth-grader at Pine ViewMiddle School, said she likes her classes andenjoys math in particular. But it can’t com-pare to her first bowling event with SpecialOlympics, where she stared down the pinsinstead of studying.
“It’s fun,” she said. “I get to miss school.”Fun is what Special Olympics is all
about, Brunner said. And in her 34 yearswith the organization, she’s seeing morepeople having fun over the years.
When she first started, there was one sea-son with just 250 athletes
participating. Now there are different sea-sons and separate events for east and westPasco participants.
In all, around 1,200 students andadults participate in Special Olympics inPasco County.
Having that many participants meansplenty of volunteers are needed to keepevents running smoothly. At the bowlingevent, Zephyrhills High School studentswere on hand to help. Students from LandO’ Lakes High School helped with a similarevent in west Pasco.
Special Olympics benefits from havingaround 100 volunteers for the Fall Classicseason, Brunner said, and they make a bigdifference to the organization.
“We couldn’t do it without the volun-teers,” she said. “They’re crucial, and they’reso good with our athletes. They give them alot of extra attention and a lot of kudos, andmake them feel good about themselves.”
Brunner also credited the Pasco Countyschool system with handling transportationand letting them organize events on schooldays, which increases participation.
The result is full lanes, a lot of smiles, anda desire to continue participating in SpecialOlympics. Even for athletes like Maryanne,who don’t normally look forward to socialevents and interacting with new people, it’ssomething fun to mark on the calendar.
“She’s already looking forward to thenext one,” Stewart said.
Meeker was one of about 200 students toparticipate in the district portion of the bowl-ing competition for East Pasco. In all,around 1,200 Special Olympics athletes par-ticipate in various sports in Pasco County.

FILE PHOTOThe Benedictine Sisters of Florida lived in this 100,000-square-foot structure from 1960 untillate this past summer, when they made a move across State Road 52 to smaller quarters.
Burgess said. “Does that mean I supporttheir decisions? Absolutely not. And I believethat we should repeal the Nuclear CostRecovery clause.”
Beverly Ledbetter, the Democratic chal-lenger for House District 38 against Burgess,said she has not taken any money fromDuke. She also acknowledges, however, shehas an uphill climb against Burgess, raisingjust $24,000 compared to his $119,000 haul.
“I didn’t take money from utilities, and Idon’t take money from those who do nothave the same values that I have,” Ledbettersaid at the forum. “I am not as well funded asDanny, but I am proud of what we’ve doneat the end of day. You have to look at yourselfin the mirror, and you have to be proud ofwho you are and what you represent.”
Ledbetter, a retired educator with PascoCounty Schools, says she supports a controver-sial version of the Common Core schoolcurriculum that is being integrated into Floridaschools. Setting standards is exactly what edu-cators need, with some of what she calledpolitical pressures removed from testing.
“Every teacher believes in testing,” shesaid. “They want to assess where our stu-dents are so that we know what they havelearned. The problem is that these tests arebeing used for things that tests should notbe used for. Too much is riding on the out-come — school grades, teacher pay,graduation and promotion for our students.”
And it comes with a $250 million pricetag, money that could be spent on vocation-al education instead, Ledbetter said.
But Common Core takes away from theability of local schools to tailor educationalneeds to their specific students, Burgesssaid.
“I am not in favor of putting more of oureducation decisions in the hands ofWashington bureaucrats,” he said. “We needto focus on local autonomy and local con-trol, and nobody knows the needs of ourstudents here locally better than the teach-ers in our classrooms, and the administrators
at the local level.”Based on his experience as a small city
mayor, Burgess said he saw firsthand howimportant local control can be.
“It is the most important form of govern-ment, and nobody knows the needs of thecommunity more than the people on theground,” he said.
But the federal government did not de-velop Common Core, Ledbetter said.Instead, the National Governors Association— a bipartisan organization consisting ofstate governors — created the standardizededucation system.
Once kids get out of school and into thework force, Burgess says he’s optimisticabout their chances. And while raisingwages should be considered, he’s not con-vinced it’s something the governmentshould mandate.
“What we also need to take into consid-eration is small businesses in ourcommunities that create jobs,” Burgess said.“If you raise the minimum wage, you haveto be careful that it may, in turn, have unin-tended consequences. It may causeemployers to have to lay people off, andeven may cause employers to shut theirdoors.”
Yet, raising the minimum wage could, initself, provide a boost in the economy,Ledbetter said.
“This talk about the living wage is be-cause people who are working theseminimum wage jobs now can’t afford tobuy a home, and they don’t have a lot of dis-posable income,” Ledbetter said. “Demandcreates jobs, and when you have money tospend, you can buy goods and services.”
Low pay can also burden taxpayers, too,Ledbetter said. She cited a study aboutWalmart employees, who have to seek pub-lic assistance for basic needs because theirlow-wage jobs won’t cover it.
Burgess said he wouldn’t completely dis-count the possibility of a state minimumwage, just that it be thought through thor-oughly.
“It’s a serious issue,” he said, “and some-thing that needs to be seriously evaluated.”
BURGESS, from page 1
snacks can be prepared.There’s also a multipurpose room adjoin-
ing the chapel. It has a wall that can bemoved to create a larger chapel space whenthat is needed. Or, the room can be used toprovide additional dining space.
The monastery also has an archivesroom, a library, an exercise room and a laun-dry room. There’s a television room, too,equipped with a wide-screen television, agift to the sisters from the Tampa Bay Rays.
The living quarters are housed in a sepa-rate building, connected by a corridor thatincorporates additional storage space.
There are 20 bedrooms, including fourguest rooms.
It is easy to see that this is a place devot-ed to worship and spiritual growth. There’san outdoor statue representing the VirginMary, the mother of Jesus, which stands nearthe front of the building.
At the end of one corridor, there’s a stat-ue representing the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
In the dining hall, there’s a sign that says,“Give us this day, our daily bread” — an ex-cerpt from the “Our Father,” a prayer recitedin Catholic masses. There’s also a painting ofthe Last Supper, which represents when Jesusinstituted the sacrament of the Eucharist, afundamental part of the Catholic faith.
With just four guest rooms, the newmonastery cannot accommodate overnightretreats. Still, Sister Mary David Hydro, whohelps plan retreats, said she thinks the op-portunity for hosting such gatherings maybe even greater now.
Many people who are unable to attend
overnight retreats may be able to breakaway for a day of reflection, she said.
The need for retreats is there, she said.“People are hungry for spiritual life.”
Providing spiritual replenishment is justone role the sisters have played through theyears. They lead lives of prayer and acceptprayer requests from the community.
They also have been instrumental inschools and on organization boards includingSunrise Spouse Abuse Shelter, Saint LeoUniversity Haitian Mission Project, FloridaAssociation for the Education of YoungChildren, Catholic Charities, Coalition for theHomeless, Hospice, Habitat for Humanity, andDayStar Hope Thrift Store and Food Pantry.
Each year they provide a Thanksgivingmeal to feed more than 200 people. They’lldo the same this year, but will need to adjusttheir logistics, said Sister Mary ClareNeuhofer, the monastery’s immediate pastprioress.
While a move to a new place requires ad-justments, there are plenty of pluses, thesisters said.
For one thing, the views are fantastic. Themonastery’s back porch sits at the top of agrassy hill.
Clusters of wildflower add bits of color,and the hills slope down to stands of treesbelow. There’s a wide expanse of sky above,and off in the distance, is a view of thesteeple for Saint Leo Abbey church.
There is beauty and serenity at thisplace, on a hill.
As they were sharing their first meal to-gether in their new dwelling place, thesisters saw a double rainbow arch across thesky. They took that as a sign of God’s bless-ing on their new home.

‘The Monuments Men’ author to speak at Saint LeoBy B.C. [email protected]
The author of the book that formed thebasis of the movie “The Monuments Men”will speak at Saint Leo University on Oct. 21.
The 7 p.m. talk by Robert Edsel kicks offthe 2014-15 University Speaker Series forthe school.
The presentation will take place at theGreenfelder-Denlinger boardrooms of thestudent community center. It is free, and thepublic is welcome.
Edsel’s nonfictionaccount of a WorldWar II military unitthat saved Europeanart treasures fromNazi looting becamethe basis of the filmdirected by GeorgeClooney.
The motion pic-ture, released lastDecember, stars Clooney, Matt Damon, CateBlanchett, Bill Murray, John Goodman, JeanDujardin, Hugh Bonneville and Bob Balaban.
In addition to “The Monuments Men:Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the GreatestTreasure Hunt in History,” Edsel also au-thored “Rescuing Da Vinci and Saving Italy:The Race to Rescue a Nation’s Treasuresfrom the Nazis.”
He also co-produced the documentaryfilm, “The Rape of Europa.”
Edsel is the founder and president of theMonuments Men Foundation for thePreservation of Art. Besides his literary andfilm work, Edsel also was a nationally rankedtennis player and an entrepreneur in thegasoline and oil exploration industry.
After his successful career, Edsel and his
family moved to Europe during the 1990s,first living in Paris, and later in Florence.While in Florence, he developed a passionfor art and architecture, according to the“Monuments Men” film website. He was cu-rious about how so many monuments andgreat works of art survived the thefts anddevastation of World War II.
Edsel spent 12 years researching thestory of the Monuments Men, which result-ed in the publication of “Rescuing Da Vinci.”His second book, which actually used the
term “Monuments Men,” was published in2009.
In January 2012, Clooney announced hewould write, direct and star in the film adap-tation of the book.
Saint Leo University is at 33701 StateRoad 52, in east Pasco County, about fourmiles east of Interstate 75. Free parking isavailable in surface lots and the campusgarage.

CHECK OUT the puzzles & games on our websitewww.lakerlutznews.com
By Helene RubensteinGrand Horizons
Grand Horizonshosted a potluckSept. 1 with 86 resi-dents celebratingLabor Day.
Chris Fulton toldme there was somuch food that if youwalked away hungry,it was your own fault.
Hosting this event were Mim and TerryGardner, along with Chris and Rich Fulton.Terry and Rich were working on the ham-burgers, while Clayton George waspreparing the hot dogs. If this potluck wasanything like we had previously, I am surethere was enough food for seconds.
Chris then went on to say that after thepotluck, several people stayed for a stimulat-ing game of Mexican train, which is alwaysfun. Some people watched the new televi-sion set that the community center recentlyacquired.
They sure made the most of it and had agood time. Our thanks go out to all whohelped.
On Sept. 9, nine women attended aluncheon at ABC Pizza. This was the time forthe Ladies Lunch Bunch, hosted by JoyceBell.
Joyce had only good things to say. ABCPizza has a buffet from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.,that consisted of salad, soup and severalkinds of pizza. She also mentioned that therestaurant was clean and very inviting.
Joyce was glad to see some new peoplethere, and she can’t wait to see it grow morewhen all come back from being in otherplaces during the summer months. Joycewent on to say that she hopes to do someexciting things in the future months.
Our thanks go to Joyce and her helperson this Ladies Lunch Bunch.
There was a lunch connoisseurs at HellasBakery and Restaurant in Tarpon Springs onSept. 12. About 25 people were there toenjoy the food, the company and the shop-ping that they did after the meal.
Sam Sage said it was quite warm thatday so not too many shoppers. She alsomentioned that Hellas is known for itsflaming cheese that is delivered to thetable, and when this cheese is placed infront of the person, alcohol is poured overit so they can create a flame. It is a show initself.
This is a Greek restaurant, and while Ihave never been there, it sounds charming.The people who attended were in a tremen-dous room, but on a platform, several stepsup. Therefore, they could watch the entirerestaurant below.
Adjoining this room is a bakery whereyou can take home some goodies or have itdelivered to your table.
The hosts for this outing were Fred andSam Sage.
There was a farewell luncheon on Sept.26 at Texas Roadhouse for Bill and JudyEllsworth from Grand Horizons, accordingto Jenny Molinek. There were 54 of theirfriends from Grand Horizons attending towish them luck, enjoy the delicious food,and thank them for all their hard work vol-unteering for the community.
Bill and Judy are moving back toTennessee to be closer to their family, andthey will be missed by all of us. Everyonewishes them the best.
Carol George and Jenny Molinek hostedthis lunch. Again, our thanks go out to thehosts.
They did a great job, and I am sure it wasappreciated by all.
