The Florida Keys’ Only Daily Newspaper, Est. 1876 Masters ends with wild day — Page 1B Charl Schwartzel Monday April 11, 2011 ◆ Vol. 135 ◆ No. 101 ◆ 14 pages 50 Cents Keys eye sales tax for sewers WEATHER BY TIMOTHY O’HARA Citizen Staff Another year without state-promised wastewater funding once again is forcing Florida Keys government officials to come up with new ways to raise sewer money locally. At its April 20 meeting, the Monroe County Commission will discuss extending a one-cent sales tax sched- Emely Ocampo-Dugall, fourth grade Gerald Adams Elementary School Sunrise: 7:09 a.m. Sunset: 7:47 p.m. Today: Sunny and bright High 85 Tonight: Clear Low 75 uled to expire in 2018 and entering into a private/public partnership in which the county would allow a private company to design, build and operate a central sewer system for Big Pine, Cudjoe, Summerland and Lower Keys areas that need to be connected to advanced wastewater treatment systems, County Commissioner George Neugent said. Local officials unsuccessfully lob- bied state legislators to ask voters to let the Keys use a second penny of sales tax to fund wastewater projects, but simply extending the current one-penny tax for infrastructure projects would not require approval from the Legislature, only the voters. Tapping sales taxes instead of property taxes would shift the burden off property owners and split it with tourists and others who buy goods in the Keys. It also would allow the Keys to bond wastewater and stormwater projects. “The money would have to be for wastewater or stormwater, no affordable housing or other programs,” said County Commissioner Sylvia Murphy, who wants to put the issue KEY WEST AN ‘EGG’-CELENT TIME Complete forecast on Page 2A NATION See WASTEWATER, Page 3A City Hall debate runs on Obama to lay out spending plan WASHINGTON: One budget deal down, President Barack Obama and Congress began to pivot Sunday from the painful standoff over this year’s spending to a pair of defining debates over the nation’s borrowing limit and the election-year budget.

Mayor Craig Cates has long championed the Glynn Archer option for City Hall, and is negotiating a shared-ownership arrangement with School District officials for the White Street school. He now wants the public to see what could be done on Angela Street with the removal of the City Hall building.

Page 8A BY ROBERT SILK Citizen Staff Government warns veterans about scam group BY ADAM LINHARDT Citizen Staff The federal government is asking military veterans living in the Florida Keys, and elsewhere, to keep an eye out for a scam that is targeting former service members. ON THE RADIO County Judge Wayne Miller, president of the Florida County Judges Conference, talks about some of the pending legislation in Tallahassee and how it could affect the judicial system. A fallacious group called the Veterans Affairs Services is claiming to provide benefits and general information by gathering personal information on veterans, but the group is not affiliated with the official government agency, the Department of Veteran Affairs, according to a Veterans Affairs press release. There is a website, at www. vaservices.org, related to the fake group, but all official Department of Veterans Affairs websites end in .gov, spokesman and Department of Veterans Affairs attorney Michael Daughtery wrote in the press release. There have been no local complaints in the Keys concerning the group, according to Key West Council of the Navy League President Stan Rzad and Navy Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) Assistant State Attorney Ali Kadir will leave the Monroe County State Attorney’s Office at the end of the month to work for a property insurance defense firm in Palm Beach County.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Keys Area Bayview Park moved into rental space at Glynn Archer Elementary School in August, but has yet to make any rent payments. The club, which provides after-school tutoring and supervision for 40 to 60 school-aged children every day, is supposed to pay $4,125 annually, which CRIME REPORT – 2 A CROSSWORD – 5 B KEYS CALENDAR – 2 A translates to about $343 per month. Those payments have not been made since the club moved its headquarters from May Sands School to Glynn Archer, Executive Director Dan Dombroski acknowledged Thursday. “We are behind in our rent and had gotten into a cash-flow situation,” he said. “But we’re catching up and have no intention of not paying.” The Key West Woman’s Club recently hosted a concert that raised about $15,000 to benefit the club, he said.

The American Civil Liberties Union was suing the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office over strip searches of college students by the Wackenhut Corrections Corp., which operated the jail. “City Commissioner Jimmy Weekley needs to be quiet. Most of the guesthouses rent their extra rooms without transient licenses. Why doesn’t he do something about that?” Frank Holtsberg died at the age of 91. He was a resident of Key West for 75 years and was the last of the founders of the B’nai Zion Congregation. He had operated a men’s store on the corner of Duval and Southard streets. “Sounds like the middle school has become a ‘high’ school.” Key West High School baseball defeated South Dade for its 11th straight win, led by home runs by Carl Taylor and Robert “Cuban” Santana. “After getting up off the floor having falling into a dead faint, I wanted to call you and hope you’ve identified the evil, right-wing, racist, homophobic person at your paper who allowed a column by Charles Krauthammer to appear.” “I’m tired of seeing pictures of minnows in the catch of the day.” “Thank you for adding Dr. Krauthammer’s column to your editorial page. As distressful as world news is today, it is still refreshing to read his witty, intelligent commentary. A good balance to the New York Times’ far-left viewpoint.” “Yes to House Bill 883 and yes to Senate Bill 476. Rent, baby, rent.” “Key West should be a place for children of all ages. Even the big ones who come here without their parents.” “I remember Love 22 at Mallory Square. He had a great schtick.” MEMBER FDIC The state of Florida filed a counterclaim against Monroe County in a lawsuit over trimming mangroves at Key West International Airport. 100 YEARS AGO Capt. A.G.

There were no arrests in the case. The woman told police whoever left the pornographic pictures also tore up family photos in the house. She explained that she had recently discovered that her husband was having an affair and she had kicked him out of the apartment shortly thereafter, but she didn’t believe he was responsible for the breakin, because she said he wouldn’t destroy pictures of his children, according to the report. She arrived at 1 a.m. to find the mess in her apartment. The report does not indicate any suspects. Someone reportedly stole some Heavenly Soft paper towels from Charlie’s Grocery sometime Tuesday night or Wednesday morning by reaching through security bars and an open window, according to an incident report. The suspect took five rolls of paper towels from the convenience store on William Street, but reportedly did not take anything else. Police noted the suspect wiped clean any fingerprints from any areas he or she might have touched. The report does not state if the stolen paper towels were used to clean the crime scene. Information in the Crime Report is obtained from reports provided by area law enforcement agencies.

At least one replacement will be hired before Kadir leaves, Veterans Continued from Page 1A Special Agent Mark Barstow. “We did get the information from the national league and have been spreading it around,” Rzad said. The Department of Veterans Affairs is reminding current and former military members that it does not randomly call veterans, nor does it ask Angela Continued from Page 1A asked architect Michael Miller to design plans for a fire station, parking lot, public restroom, taxi stand and pocket park at the Angela Street location. “I think it looks great, and it shows what is possible with all that green space,” Cates said on Friday. Miller’s design includes 100 street-level parking spaces, instead of a multi-story parking garage, which would be required if the property was also to house a City Hall facility. The fire station would be built at the corner of Simonton and Southard streets, at the site of the Madeline Bean administration building, which is slated for demolition. The station would be a Wastewater Continued from Page 1A on the 2012 ballot. Voters in 1998 approved the use of the sales tax for five years, then extended it for 15 years, Murphy said. The sales tax also could be used to secure a loan from the state Department of Environmental Protection’s (DEP) Clean Water Revolving Loan Program, according to Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority Executive Director Jim Reynolds. Reynolds and other staff from the county and water utility have begun to explore the idea. The county, utility and Keys municipalities could borrow as much as $15 million a year for wastewater projects, and repay it with sales tax revenue and fees for utility service and wastewater connections, Reynolds said To apply for the loan, the county would have to hold public hearings to adopt a facilities plan in May and send it to the DEP for approval in June. The DEP would decide in August whether to loan the Dunne was demoted and transferred in January. Kadir, who has been with the State Attorney’s Office for just more than a year, said his difficult decision to leave was a financial one. In an effort to keep him, State Attorney Dennis Ward had offered him a promotion to Dunne’s old posi- tion. “Emotionally I would have stayed here,” he said, stressing how much he enjoyed his job and the Keys. “I didn’t want to leave here. My family doesn’t want to leave here.” With his resignation, Kadir becomes the sixth prosecutor to leave the Upper Keys office for information that it would already have, such as Social Security numbers. “In particular, if you have not dealt with the VA previously — in person — and all of a sudden you receive a call from someone saying they are with the VA or something similar, hang up the phone,” the press release states. The Department of Veterans Affairs also does not conduct any official business by email, Daughtery wrote. Department of Veterans Affairs attorneys are working with the Department of Defense to ascertain if the fake group was able to gain access to military members’ contact information, according to the press release. “There are constantly people trying to take advantage of veterans, those deployed oversees or their families here,” Barstow said. “NCIS is aware of it, but we haven’t had any local complaints yet.” The Department of Veterans Affairs asks that military members or veterans who receive information from the fake group to notify the Key West Council of the Navy League at nlkeywest@ keywestnavyleague.org or the Department of Veterans Affairs office in Washington at 800-827-1000. alinhardt@keysnews.com “drive-through” style, “which will avoid having to stop traffic on Simonton Street while trucks back into the station, as is the present case,” Miller wrote. The two-story fire station would have garage bays to accommodate two fire trucks and an ambulance. The second floor would house dormitories, an exercise room, offices, a garden grill and picnic table. The plans also include “lowmaintenance green spaces, a charging station for electric cars, public toilets, attractive night lighting, public art, fountains and a prominent pick-up and drop-off point for hotel shuttles, taxi stand and bus stop,” according to the “design concept survey” released Friday. Miller provided the design at no cost to the city. Cates said the parking lot with its additional features would cost an estimated $900,000, plus the anticipated $2.6 million for the fire station. He wants Miller to present his ideas at the May 3 City Commission meeting, which means the design plans will be posted on the city’s website with the commission agenda on April 26. Meanwhile, Cates will introduce a preliminary proposal for the shared use of Glynn Archer at the April 19 commission meeting. “It will just be presented at that time; we don’t have to vote on it then, but if the commission likes it, then we can start getting more specific prices and pinning down some numbers,” he said. Other commissioners, including Teri Johnston, continue to object to what could be a costly renovation of a historic building for a City Hall. Commissioner Barry Gibson suggested last week that the city consider buying Habana Plaza shopping center on Flagler Avenue and use it as a City Hall. Gibson pointed out that the city is already renting office space there while it decides on a new City Hall. He acknowledged that it does not “look like a City Hall,” but would represent a significant cost savings in these economic times. Commissioner Mark Rossi on Friday said he would entertain further discussion about the Habana Plaza property, while Commissioner Clayton Lopez, whose district includes much of Bahama Village and Old Town, said he would never support a City Hall that far from the downtown residents. mmiles@keysnews.com money, and how much, he said. The Keys are under a state mandate to have all properties connected to advanced treatment systems by December 2015, a deadline Neugent said “without equivocation ain’t going to be met.” The Legislature promised the Keys $200 million in bond revenue for wastewater projects in 2008, but has yet to allocate the money. With a grim state financial budget season ahead, no one expects the money to reach the Keys anytime soon. The state pushed back the deadline from 2010 to 2015. Without state funding, property owners could face a $20,000 connection fee. “Here we are a year and a half into this deadline and still no designated funding for this small community,” County Mayor Heather Carruthers said. “We need to find a way of funding this ourselves.” Carruthers and other Keys leaders were in Tallahassee late last month and received another grim report on the state’s budget. Carruthers said she lobbied the governor’s chief aide and others to let the Keys ask voters to approve the use of a second penny of sales tax or the imposition of a toll for motorists coming into Monroe County, but received no assurances. She’s still awaiting the Federal Highway Administration’s response to a letter the County Commission sent in January seeking permission to impose the toll.

CLARIN/PUBLISHER TOM TUELL/EDITOR RALPH MORROW/SPORTS EDITOR ED BLOCK CHARLIE BRADFORD KEN DOMANSKI SHIRLEY FREEMAN TODD GERMAN Assault on freedom of speech is overreaction W e have enough overreaction already to the reckless, reprehensible actions of a pair of self-promoting Florida preachers who got it into their heads to burn a Quran. We don’t need Congress to add to the fray by limiting free speech. For a while, it seemed as if Pastors Terry Jones’ and Wayne Sapp’s mock “trial” and burning of the Quran on March 20 at their church in Gainsville, Fla., would get only minimal media attention, and rightly so. Anything more would only feed Mr. Jones’ effort to raise millions of dollars through donations to his anti-Islamic cause and Internet sales of hats, T-shirts and coffee mugs with his hateful message. Other than a few small stories, the mainstream media was largely ignoring Mr. Terry after indulging him last fall in his plan to burn Qurans on Sept. 11, presumably to protest a proposed Islamic center near the site of the former World Trade Center. He scrapped that amid warnings from Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Gen. David Petraeus that the likely reaction among Muslims would harm the U.S. war effort. Of all people, it was Afghan President Hamid Karzai who seems to have saved Mr. Terry from obscurity. Four days after the book burning, Mr. Karzai stoked the issue by calling it a crime against all Muslims and demanding the United States and the United Nations bring the perpetrators to justice. Imams carried the message to prayers. Violent protests, possibly fueled further by the Taliban, ensued, claiming the lives of seven U.N. work- Editorial ers, four demonstrators and at least nine other people. Yet rather than denounce the violence, rather than explain to his people that freedom of speech in America does not imply any agreement with Mr. Terry’s views, Mr. Karzai on Sunday asked Congress to condemn one loopy preacher. The worry is that some in Congress will see things even more radically than Mr. Karzai. Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., isn’t ruling out hearings, while Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a member of the Armed Services Committee, suggests that Congress should explore the need to limit freedom of speech: “I wish we could find a way to hold people accountable. Free speech is a great idea, but we’re in a war.” A seemingly perpetual war, that is, against terrorists. A war that in 10 years has seen disturbing intrusions by government into Americans’ personal lives, from monitoring their emails and telephone calls to virtually strip searching them at airports. Far more measured is the response of President Barack Obama, who appropriately condemned both the burning in Florida and the rioting in Afghanistan. In a less delicate situation where diplomacy wasn’t necessary, Mr. Obama might well have added Mr. Karzai to the list of those who need to take personal responsibility for their words or deeds, and for the collateral damage of their opportunism. — The (Albany, N.Y.)

Indeed, in an age of about 6 percent more for the nationalism, our military force military this year than at the BY NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF W is often counterproductive. After the first gulf war, the U.S. retained bases in Saudi Arabia on the assumption that they would enhance American security. Instead, they appear to have provoked fundamentalists like Osama bin Laden into attacking the U.S. In other words, hugely expensive bases undermined American security (and we later closed them anyway). ... Paradoxically, it’s often people with experience in the military who lead the way in warning against overinvestment in arms. It was President Dwight Eisenhower who gave the strongest warning: “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.” And in the Obama administration, it is Defense Secretary Robert Gates who has argued that military spending on things large and small can and should expect closer, harsher scrutiny; it is Gates who has argued most eloquently for more investment in diplomacy and development aid. American troops in Afghanistan are among the strongest advocates of investing more in schools there because they see firsthand that education fights extremism far more effectively than bombs. And here’s the trade-off: For the cost of one American soldier in Afghanistan for one year, you could build about 20 schools. There are a few signs of hope in the air. The SimpsonBowles deficit commission proposes cutting money for armaments, along with other spending. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton unveiled a signature project, the quadrennial diplomacy and development review, which calls for more emphasis on aid and diplomacy in foreign policy. “Leading through civilian power saves lives and money,” Clinton noted, and she’s exactly right. The review is a great document, but we’ll see if it can be implemented — especially because House Republicans are proposing cuts in the State Department budget. They should remind themselves that in the 21st century, our government can protect its citizens in many ways: financing research against disease, providing early childhood programs that reduce crime later, boosting support for community colleges, investing in diplomacy that prevents costly wars. As we cut budgets, let’s remember that these steps would, on balance, do far more for the security of Americans than a military base in Germany. Nicholas D. Kristof is a syndicated columnist with The New York Times. Ryan’s leap — is this bold budget plan a well-annotated suicide note? And I hope so (we will find out definiWashington Post Writers Group tively in November WASHINGTON — 2012).

BY CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER I to public housing. When you hear this being denounced as throwing the poor in the snow, remember these same charges were hurled with equal fury in 1996. President Clinton’s own assistant health and human services secretary, Peter Edelman, resigned in protest, predicting that abolishing welfare would throw a million children into poverty. On the contrary. Within five years child poverty had declined by more than 2.5 million — one of the reasons the 1996 welfare reform is considered one of the social policy successes of our time. (2) Critics are describing Ryan’s Medicare reform as privatization, a deliberately loaded term designed to instantly discredit the idea. Yet the idea is essentially to apply to all of Medicare the system under which Medicare Part D has been such a success: a guaranteed insurance subsidy. Thus instead of paying the health provider directly (feefor-service), Medicare would give seniors about $15,000 of “premium support,” letting the recipient choose among a menu of approved healthinsurance plans. Call this privatization if you like, but then would you call the Part D prescription benefit “privatized”? If so, there’s a lot to be said for it. Part D is both popular and successful. It actually beat its cost projections — a near miraculous exception to just about every health care program known to man. Under Ryan’s plan, everyone 55 and over is unaffected. Younger workers get the insurance subsidy starting in 2022. By eventually ending the current fee-for-service system that drives up demand and therefore prices, this reform is far more likely to ensure the survival of Medicare than the current near-insolvent system. (3) The final charge — cutting taxes for the rich — is the most scurrilous. That would be the same as calling the Ronald Reagan-Bill Bradley 1986 tax reform “cutting taxes for the rich.” In fact, it was designed for revenue neutrality. It cut rates — and for everyone — by eliminating loopholes, including corrupt exemptions and economically counterproductive tax expenditures, to yield what is generally considered by left and right an extraordinarily successful piece of economic legislation. Ryan’s plan is classic tax reform — which even Obama says the country needs: It broadens the tax base by eliminating loopholes that, in turn, provide the revenues for reducing rates. Tax reform is one of those rare public policies that produce social fairness and economic efficiency at the same time. For both corporate and individual taxes, Ryan’s plan performs the desperately needed task of cleaning out the myriad of accumulated cutouts and loopholes that have choked the tax code since 1986. Ryan’s overall plan tilts at every windmill imaginable, including corporate welfare and agricultural subsidies. The only thing left out is Social Security. Which proves only that Ryan is not completely suicidal. But the blueprint is brave and profoundly forward-looking. It seeks nothing less than to adapt the currently unsustainable welfare state to the demographic realities of the 21st century. Will it survive the inevitable barrage of mindless, electiondriven, 30-second attack ads (see above)? Alternate question: Does Obama have half of Ryan’s courage? I think not (on both counts). But let’s hope so. Charles Krauthammer is a columnist with the Washington Post Writers Group. His column appears in The Citizen on Mondays.

Rick Scott’s top spokesman is getting in the habit of defending his boss from the media in 140 characters or less. Scott’s communication’s director, Brian Burgess, uses Twitter to contradict and argue with reporters and criticize news sources. Shots have been fired back and forth in what one former reporter is calling a Twitter war between Burgess and the media. A former political reporter who runs the Crowley Political Report blog said arguments that used to take place over the phone are becoming public. Burgess said Scott has told his team to branch out beyond traditional media in delivering a message and he’s used that challenge to be experimental on Twitter. Tampa police say an undercover officer was injured during a struggle with a suspect after a drug deal became violent. Police spokeswoman Laura McElroy said after officers bought drugs from the suspect Saturday night, the suspect rammed his vehicle into a police car and several other vehicles before trying to run over an officer. The suspect eventually bailed out of his car. McElroy said the suspect was so combative that several officers were needed to take him into custody. One officer broke his hand during the struggle. The suspect’s name was not released. McElroy said he was treated at a hospital for a cut on his arm. Police say a gun and cocaine were seized from the suspect’s car.

In Duval’s Teen Court, a second chance is costly BY BRIDGET MURPHY The Associated Press JACKSONVILLE — They admit guilt before ever stepping into this court. And while a second chance awaits young people who do, it’s not something that comes comfortably. Instead of judging by an adult in a black robe, peers mete out consequences to defendants in Duval County’s Teen Court. If teens stick to sentences, the crimes come off their records. Sentences for the mostly first-time misdemeanor offenders often include community service, essays, jail tours, counseling, service as a program juror, and public apologies to parents. “You hope that one in however many kids will learn something and straighten up,” said Heather Solanka, a civil litigation lawyer who volunteers as a Teen Court judge. “The goal is that they go, ‘This is not the path for me.’” Teen Court started in Jacksonville in 1998. Program director Lawrence Hills Jr. said he believes the program — one of about 50 in Florida — provides a lesson in civics that schools don’t teach. He said administrators usually pick teens who commit crimes at school for the diversion program funded by a fee adult offenders pay. While petty theft was once the most popular offense, now 60 percent of cases involve marijuana possession. In the last five years, about 1,800 defendants have been part of the program. There are 18 teens who volunteer as peer lawyers, plus some who serve as jurors and bailiffs. In a recent Monday night court session, a 17-year-old Englewood High School junior was up first before Solanka. Police busted the honor student after she skipped out of school with cigarettes and marijuana. She got on the witness stand to answer questions as a 15-year-old prosecutor and an 18-yearold defense attorney put on their cases. “She had the opportunity to say no, but she didn’t and she went along with her friends,” said Aaron Zeiler, a Stanton High sophomore. “She had the opportunity to stop, but she kept running away.” “My defendant is very sorry for what she has done. She told the police officer the truth,” said Devin Clark, an Arlington Country Day School senior. “... Please return with a fair and just sentence.” Before the jury deliberated, the girl’s father stood to say how broken-hearted he was. After six teen jurors decided the defendant’s punishment, it was time for her to face her father for a public mea culpa. She wiped her eyes, holding her head in her hands before standing up. Clubs Continued from Page 1A “So as soon as we get that money, we’ll be catching up,” he said. The club uses Glynn Archer for office space and afterschool tutoring, and conducts some after-school activities at Bayview Park. “Hi Dad,” she started, fidgeting with a jacket that sagged off one shoulder. “I just want to say how sorry I am. ...” Not every teen is so contrite. Not every parent seems to understand his or her child could be facing adjudication in a court that isn’t set up to be a learning experience. Later that night, the mother of a 16-year-old caught with marijuana at Mandarin High confronted Teen Court officials about her son’s sentence. It included 15 hours of community service, four jury duty assignments, a 7 p.m. curfew, a jail tour, a three-page essay on the effects of marijuana, a Fred Sims, the School District’s facilities manager, said he had spoken with Dombroski about six months ago, and was told the rent would get paid, Sims said. “He gets behind, but he does eventually get us paid,” Sims said, referring to Dombroski’s previous tenancy at the district’s May Sands School. mmiles@keysnews.com two-page report on decisionmaking skills, and a courtordered visit to a homeless shelter to talk to three people about how they got there. “This is everything on the books. I’m a single mom and I work,” the mother said. “... He knows what he’s done ... This is too much. I can’t do this. I’m going to end up losing my job.” Solanka never had seen any parent react that way. Jurors were wide-eyed. From the gallery, Hills stood to address the mother. “The alternative is arrest ... I appreciate what you just said,” he told her, “... but if he were to exercise the other options, likely he wouldn’t have a choice.” Soon it was time for the 16-year-old to give his courtordered apology. “I want to say I’m sorry ... You could lose your job,” he told his mother. “I know it’s crazy and ... I’m just sorry and I’ll try to straighten up.” Later that night, the woman shook Hills’ hand on the way out of the courthouse. Next to her was a young man whose eyes were red from crying. Anthony jurors may be picked from Orlando ORLANDO— The judge in the murder trial of a Florida mother charged with killing her daughter said jurors may be picked from the Orlando area if they can’t be found in another location in Florida. Circuit Judge Belvin Perry said at a hearing Friday that he still planned to pick jurors outside the Orlando area for Casey Anthony’s trial next month. Jurors will be brought to central Florida, where they will be sequestered for the trial. If jurors can’t be chosen in a week, the judge said he will consider returning jury selection to Orlando. The judge wants to use jurors outside of Orlando because of the media attention the case has gotten. Anthony has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.

A mini-Partridge Family reunion was held Saturday in Atlantic City when David Cassidy and Danny Bonaduce played on a song onstage together. They say it was only the second time in 40 years they’ve done so. Bonaduce, a Philadelphia Cassidy disc jockey, was Cassidy’s younger brother on the ’70s TV hit, but lip synched and only pretended to play the bass guitar on the show. On Saturday, after he did a stand- up comedy routine to open the show at Resorts Casino Hotel, Cassidy got him to play “Doesn’t Somebody Want To Be Wanted.” Bonaduce learned that song for real when they played it together last October in suburban Philadelphia. “The Partridge Family” ran on ABC from 1970 through 1974. ✬✬✬✬✬ HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam — After nearly five decades of singing about a war that continues to haunt a generation of Americans, legendary performer Bob Dylan is finally getting his chance to see Vietnam at peace. The iconic American folk singer and songwriter was set to play a special concert in the former Saigon on Sunday evening, where he’s expected to belt out some of his classic anti-war tunes, nearly 36 years after the Vietnam War ended. Dylan’s Dylan music during that tumultuous era helped define a generation, touching thousands of young people who took to the streets demanding that Washington stop the war in Vietnam.

White House: Obama to lay out spending plan BY LAURIE KELLMAN The Associated Press WASHINGTON — One budget deal down, President Barack Obama and Congress began to pivot Sunday from the painful standoff over this year’s spending to a pair of defining debates over the nation’s borrowing limit and the election-year budget. Much will be revealed at midweek, when the House and Senate are expected to vote on a budget for the remainder of this fiscal year and Obama reveals his plan to reduce the deficit, in part by scaling back programs for seniors and the poor. Across the dial on Sunday, messengers from both parties framed the series of spending fights as debates over cuts — a thematic victory for House Republicans swept to power by a populist mandate for smaller, more austere government. “We’ve had to bring this president kicking and screaming to the table to cut spending,” said House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., on “Fox News Sunday.” Presidential adviser David Plouffe said Obama has long been committed to finding ways for the nation to spend within its means. He confirmed that the president would unveil more specifics for deficit reduction with a speech Wednesday that would reveal plans to reduce the government’s chief health programs for seniors and the poor. “You’re going to have to look at Medicare and Medicaid and see what kind of savings you can get,” Obama adviser David Plouffe said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” The presidential speech on Wednesday is part of official Washington’s shift from the standoff over spending through September to next year’s budget and beyond. Alone and together, the prospects of raising the debt ceiling and passing a 2012 spending plan are politically perilous, a knot that lawmakers will spend the coming months trying to unravel. That means competing plans to shore up the nation’s long-term fiscal health in a debate many predict will make Friday’s nail-biter look minor. For all the forward focus Sunday, congressional officials still were analyzing Friday’s 348-70 vote to fund the government through the week. Operating under it, aides were putting to paper the longer-term bipartisan accord to fund the government through September. It wasn’t clear WILLIAM B. PLOWMAN/The Associated Press White House Senior Adviser David Plouffe is interviewed on NBC’s ‘Meet the Press’ in Washington on Sunday. that the vote would remain the same on the spending bill for the next six months. The late hour of Friday’s handshake left lawmakers little time to react. House members of both parties who voted for the funding through the week could not say on Sunday that they’d vote for the plan to fund the government through September. Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who voted “yes” Friday to extend funding this week while the final compromise was written, said he was nonetheless undecided on whether he’d vote for the final deal. On ABC’s “This Week,” he said he didn’t think the six-month compromise would pass. On the other side of the aisle, Rep. Mike Pence, R-Ind., also a “yes” vote on Friday, would not commit to voting for the six-month deal either. Pence praised House Speaker John Boehner for fighting “the good fight.” “It sounds like John Boehner got a good deal, probably not good enough for me to support it, but a good deal nonetheless,” Pence said on ABC. Friday’s tally also offered a look at Republicans likely to be the staunchest opponents of any compromises on spending and policy. Twenty-eight of the “no” votes were cast by Republicans. Sixteen of those are members of the 87-member freshman class. Also voting no: Tea Party star and possible presidential candidate Michele Bachmann, R-Minn. “This short-term was just ‘same ol’, same ol’ ’ for Washington,” one newcomer who voted “no,” Rep. Tim Huelskamp of Kansas, wrote on his Facebook page. The $38.5 billion in cuts, Huelskamp wrote, “barely make a dent” in years of trillion-dollar deficits and the nation’s $14 trillion debt. Additionally, the measure lacked the policy riders he sought, such as one to strip Planned Parenthood of federal funding, though by law no federal money goes to its abortion services. All told, Huelskamp wrote, the measure “ignores the fundamental reasons I and my fellow freshmen members of Congress were sent to Washington in November of last year.” Plouffe said the president understands the mandate to dramatically cut spending. On talk show after talk show, he pointed to December’s bipartisan deal on tax cuts with Friday night’s agreement on this year’s budget as evidence that both parties can govern together when they want to. “Compromise is not a dirty word,” Plouffe said on ABC. The president, Plouffe said, would address ways to reduce the deficit and the long-term, $14 trillion debt. He gave few specifics, but he said the president believes taxes should go up on higher-income Americans and cuts to Medicare and Medicaid will be necessary. A month later, fervor of Wis. debate shifts to recall elections The Associated Press MADISON, Wis. — Nearly a month after the Wisconsin standoff over union rights ended, some of the fervor from that debate has shifted to recall efforts targeting lawmakers in both parties — Republicans who voted to cut back collective bargaining and Democrats who fled the state to try to stop them. Now that the law has passed, organizers are focusing on signature-gathering efforts. But of the 16 state senators who were originally targeted, only six appear likely to face an election threatening removal. And before recall elections can be held, supporters need to find candidates to run against the incumbents. Still, voter outrage remains high in many places, helping to stir interest in the recalls. “A lot of legislators are going to be looking over their shoulders a little more in the future,” said Michael Kraft, a professor of political science at the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay. “And if they are in the middle of a recall effort, they might be nervous about that. They might moderate what they say and how they approach the budget.” Last week, Democrats filed their first petition to try to recall a GOP senator who supported Gov. Scott Walker’s law, which eliminated collective bargaining for most public employees. Sen. Dan Kapanke of La Crosse represents a Democratic-leaning district in western Wisconsin. Two other Republican senators and three Democrats also face probable recall elections. At first, the recall efforts were a sideshow to the larger political battle unfolding in Madison. But depending on how many recall elections take place and how many incumbents, if any, are kicked out, the process could profoundly affect Walker’s agenda. If Republicans lose just three seats, they would give up their 19-14 majority and with it the power that allowed them to aggressively push the legislation through despite ear-splitting protests that drew tens of thousands of protesters to the Capitol. Walker signed the measure March 11. It is being challenged in court. If a judge rules that the bill was improperly passed, the Senate could be forced to vote on the law again. And if two senators were to switch sides, their votes (combined with that of the sole dissenting Republican), could defeat the measure. In another sign that Walker’s union law is still on many minds, a state Supreme Court race exploded last week into a hotly debated contest that some people viewed as a referendum on Walker’s policies. A little-known liberal challenger tapped into voter anger in her attempt to unseat a conservative incumbent. On Friday, Justice David Prosser had a lead of 7,500 votes out of 1.5 million ballots cast, an unusually close vote for a judicial race that he was expected to win easily. JoAnne Kloppenburg was considering a recount. Tate said the race energized efforts to recall Republican senators. Two liberal political action groups — Progressive Change Campaign Committee and Democracy for America — quickly announced that they would pour another $125,000 into recall ads in Green Bay, Milwaukee and Minneapolis. In addition to the six most endangered lawmakers, recall efforts are proceeding against five other senators — two Democrats and three Republicans. But those prospects get dimmer each day as the filing deadline looms. And campaigns targeting two other GOP senators and three Democrats are long shots at best.

Zuma and other African leaders traveled to Tripoli to meet Gadhafi on Sunday and will be in the rebel stronghold of Benghazi on Monday to meet leaders of the opposition. The African Union’s road map calls for an immediate cease-fire, opening channels for humanitarian aid and talks between the rebels and the government. Gadhafi has ignored the cease-fire he announced after international airstrikes were authorized last month, and he rejects rebel demands that he step down. Free beer will reportedly be verboten soon in Switzerland, if the government has its way. Swiss weekly Sonntag said the Cabinet has drafted a plan to ban restaurateurs from offering any free drinks to customers. It cited the director of the Swiss Alcohol Board on Sunday as saying an existing ban on promotions involving other alcoholic beverages would be extended to include beer. Alexandre Schmidt said publicans would still be allowed to offer “spontaneous” rounds to regulars. The proposal has drawn strong opposition from the hospitality industry as free beer promotions are common in bars, restaurants and at public events in Switzerland.

Egypt’s ex-President Mubarak denies abuse of power BY DIAA HADID The Associated Press CAIRO — In the first remarks since his ouster, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak denied allegations that he used his position to amass wealth and property in a speech broadcast Sunday, as hundreds of protesters occupying the heart of Cairo shouted for him to be brought to trial. Mubarak, forced out of office two months ago by a popular uprising, said he was willing to cooperate in any investigation to prove that he did not own property abroad or possessed foreign bank accounts. Shortly after Mubarak’s prerecorded speech was aired, Egypt’s prosecutor general told state TV he issued orders Sunday summoning the expresident and his two sons for questioning. The station quot- ed a prosecution spokesman as saying the scope of the investigation of Mubarak and his sons would include the crackdown on protesters that killed an estimated 300 people as well as the corruption allegations. Holding Mubarak and top officials in his government accountable for the violence is a central demand of antiMubarak movement. The pan-Arab news channel Al-Arabiya, which broadcast the speech, said it was recorded Saturday, a day after demonstrators gathered in huge numbers in Cairo to demand that the military council that took over from Mubarak launch an investigation into his wealth. There was no video image accompanying the recording of Mubarak’s voice. The speech seemed to be as much about preserving his dignity as about denying the accusations against him. “I was hurt very much, and I am still hurting — my family and I — from the unjust campaigns against us and false allegations that aim to smear my reputation, my integrity, my (political) stances and my military history,” Mubarak said. Egyptians fed up with poverty, corruption and political repression forced Mubarak to leave office on Feb. 11 after 18 days of mass demonstrations. Friday’s protest in Cairo’s Tahrir Square by tens of thousands was the biggest since then. Despite constitutional amendments to allow free elections and other steps toward a freer political scene, many of people in the anti-Mubarak movement are growing impatient with the ruling military’s transitional leadership and AMR NABIL/The Associated Press skeptical of its pledges to meet An Egyptian paints graffiti in opposition to a higher military council that rules Egypt at Tahrir Square in all demands.

Witnesses: 4 protesters killed in key Syrian city BY BASSEM MROUE The Associated Press REBECCA BLACKWELL/The Associated Press A soldier allied with Alassane Ouattara takes up a position as fighting moves closer to a checkpoint used as a republican forces operating base in the Youpougon neighborhood of Abidjan, Ivory Coast, on Sunday. BEIRUT — Syrian security forces and pro-government gunmen killed four protesters Sunday in the port city of Banias after the army sealed off the city as hundreds of protesters gathered, undaunted by the regime’s use of deadly force to quell more than three weeks of unrest, witnesses said. State TV reported that nine soldiers were killed in an ambush near the city. Details were sketchy because telephone lines, Internet access and electricity apparently were cut to most parts of the city. Army tanks and soldiers circled the city, preventing people from entering. But one witness, reached by BY MARCO CHOWN OVED The Associated Press ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast — United Nations and French helicopters fired rockets on strongman Laurent Gbagbo’s residence on Sunday in an assault the U.N. said was to retaliate for attacks by his forces on U.N. headquarters and civilians. Residents from nearby neighborhoods reported seeing two U.N. Mi-24 attack helicopters and a French helicopter open fire on the residence, where Gbagbo is holed up in a bunker. The residents couldn’t be named for fear of reprisal. An Associated Press reporter saw the helicopters take off from the French military base followed minutes later by explosions coming from the direction of the residence. Successive waves of French helicopters took off from the base in the following hours and additional bombardments could be heard. Gbagbo has been living in a bunker in his residence in Abidjan for nearly a week. After a decade in power, he refuses to step aside even though the United Nations has ruled that he lost the November presidential election to Alassane Ouattara. Forces loyal to Gbagbo were encircled at the presidential residence earlier this week but broke out on Saturday, ambushing a patrol of soldiers loyal to his rival and advancing downtown. Pro-Gbagbo forces also attacked U.N. headquarters on Saturday and again on Sunday. “This is in retaliation for a series of attacks for the last three or four days not only against (the U.N.) but also against the civilian population — often with heavy weapons,” said U.N. spokesman Hamadoun Toure. Forces on both sides have been accused by human rights groups of killing hundreds of civilians in recent weeks. Toure said Sunday’s airstrikes targeted the presidential palace and Gbagbo’s residence, as well as military bases where heavy weapons had been identified. Gbagbo has lost control of virtually the entire country in the last two weeks as forces loyal to Ouattara have swept down from the north and west into the commercial capital. under the control of the feared security forces. Protests erupted in Syria more than three weeks ago and have been growing steadily every week, with tens of thousands of people calling for sweeping reforms in President Bashar Assad’s authoritarian regime. More than 170 people have been killed, according to human rights groups.

South America was the region with the largest military spending growth of 5.8 percent, with countries such as Brazil seeking to increase its international influence, said the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. The institution, known as SIPRI, said global military spending in 2010 was the lowest since 2001. It said the United States topped the list by spending $698 billion last year, followed by China with $119 billion and the United Kingdom with $59.6 billion. SIPRI said the rise in spending in South America was partly driven by increased staff costs and internal security threats in some countries, but that the change also should be seen in light of the region’s strong economic growth and relatively limited exposure to the world financial crisis. 329930 NOTICE OF A MEETING OF THE MONROE COUNTY PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD NOTICE OF MEETING PUBLIC NOTICE THE CAROLINE STREET CORRIDOR AND BAHAMA VILLAGE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT All interested parties are hereby notified that the Caroline Street Corridor and Bahama Village Community Redevelopment Agency has filed with the City of Key West, Florida, a copy of an annual report of its activities for the preceding fiscal year, including certain financial matters required by law for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010.

On an amazing Sunday at Augusta National, where the roars came from everywhere and for everyone and didn’t stop until it was over, Schwartzel emerged from the madness by becoming the first Masters champion to close with four straight birdies. His final putt from 20 feet curled into the side of the cup for a 6under 66, the best closing round at the Masters in 22 years. It gave the 26-year-old South African a two-shot victory over Australians Adam Scott and Jason Day. “Just an exciting day,” Schwartzel said. “So many roars, and that atmosphere out there was just incredible. A phenomenal day.” Indeed, this final round had it all. First came a fistpumping charge by Tiger Woods, who erased a seven-shot deficit in nine holes only to go flat on the back nine. Then came the stunning collapse of 21-year-old Rory McIlroy, who put his name in Masters lore for all the wrong reasons. Still leading by one shot as he headed to the back nine, McIlroy hit a tee shot next to the cabins left of the 10th fairway and twice hit a tree to make triple bogey. He three-putted from 7 feet for bogey on the 11th, four-putted from about 12 feet on the next hole and buried his head into his forearm as the shock began to settle in. McIlroy shot 80, the highest final round by the 54-hole leader since Ken Venturi in 1956. Not since Jean Van de Velde at Carnoustie had someone blown at least a fourshot lead going into the last round of the major.

Miami won for the 13th time in its last 16 games and outrebounded Boston 42-26, the Celtics’ total a season low. Ray Allen scored 13 points for the Celtics. Rajon Rondo was held to just seven points and five assists on 3 for 8 shooting. Miami’s role players were huge. SUNRISE — Peter DeBoer took over as coach of the Florida Panthers three years ago with a sparkling resume from junior hockey, fully expecting that he could bring the downtrodden franchise back to the playoffs. He was wrong. The Panthers fired DeBoer on Sunday, one day after the team finished its 10th straight season without a playoff appearance. DeBoer Florida’s 72 points were worst in the Eastern Conference and the third-fewest in the 30-team NHL. “These decisions are always tough to make, but we felt strongly that it was the right time to make a change,” Panthers general manager Dale Tallon said.

COOKE ATHLETE OF THE WEEK Citizen Staff T BRITTANY WAGONER KW, SENIOR, TRACK & FIELD he Key West High track and field teams had a recordsetting day in their final meet of the regular season this past weekend at Dade Christian. The Conch girls placed fifth out of 16 teams, while the boys were ninth in the Friday meet. The girls set a couple of school marks en route to their strong finish. Wagoner broke the Key West High school record with a 12-foot pole vault and was part of the 4x100 meter relay team that also set a Conchs record. Honorable Mention Joey Gonzalez (Mar, Jr., Baseball) Gonzalez tossed six shutout innings on Friday night and had one of three Dolphins hits in Marathon’s 3-0 victory over Somerset. Kelley Struyf (Mar, Sr., Softball) Made several spectacular catches and hit a home run in the Lady ’Fins victory over rival Key West. Brittany Wagoner broke the school record with a 12-foot leap in the pole vault and teamed up with Courtnie Coleman, Jasmine Jones and Caroline Talbott to run a time of 52.57 seconds to top the school’s previous best time in that event. Wagoner now has at least a share of the school record in all four events – high jump, long jump, pole vault and 4x100 meter relay – in which she has competed over the last three years. In Friday’s meet at Dade Christian, Wagoner earned firsts in the pole vault and long jump (1711). The girls relay team finished fourth. A couple of Key West boys had second-place finishes in the meet. NaQuan McNeill took second in the 100-meter dash (11.60) and Eric Vinson was second in the pole vault (11). Aeschton Tomita ran to a third-place finish in the 3,200 meters (10:56.72). KEYSNEWS.COM — AND SPORTS TOO The teams will head up the Keys to Coral Shores on Friday for the District 16-2A championship meet. • • • The Marathon High baseball team was able to claim one of the two seeds they were hoping for in the District 16-2A tournament. This past week, the Dolphins, with help from other district teams, earned at least the No. 3 seed in the opening postseason tournament. That means Marathon will face off against Mater Lakes in the first round, missing defending 2A State Champion Westminster Christian until at the district finals. Despite having lost, in a mistake riddle game, to Mater Lakes earlier this season, Dolphins coach Luis Leal said he likes his team’s match up. The two squads will play once more in the regular season on Friday. See NOTEBOOK, page 3B 2B THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ MONDAY, APRIL 11, 2011 SPORTS: Scoreboard Cleveland at L.A.

Stoughton, third Jon Mead, second Reid Carruthers and lead Steve Gould beat Scotland’s Tom Brewster 6-5 on Sunday in the championship game. Stoughton and Gould also won the world crown 15 years ago in Hamilton, Ontario. Stoughton and Mead were teammates when they lost the 1999 world final in an extra end in Saint John, New Brunswick. LAS VEGAS — UNLV has hired BYU associate coach Dave Rice to lead its men’s basketball program, picking him to return to the school where he was an assistant under four coaches for 11 seasons. The move comes a week after Lon Kruger left UNLV following seven seasons to become Oklahoma’s new coach. The offer is pending the approval of the Nevada Board of Regents. BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Will Power started up front and never relinquished his spot to win the Indy Grand Prix of Alabama. The Australian extended his lead in the final laps and finished 3.38 seconds ahead of Scott Dixon on Sunday, while Dario Franchitti was third on the 2.38-mile road course at Barber Motorsports Park. Power was the first IndyCar driver to lead wire to wire since Franchitti did it at Sonoma in 2009. CHARLESTON, S.C. — Topranked Caroline Wozniacki defeated Elena Vesnina 6-2, 6-3 to take the Family Circle Cup on Sunday, capturing her third title this season. Wozniacki finished off a strong week in her first claycourt tournament of the season. She lost only one set, in the quarterfinals to Barbora Zahlavova Strycova, and held off Jelena Jankovic in the semis. She also won at Dubai and Indian Wells, Calif. BUTCH DILL/The Associated Press Will Power celebrates in Victory Lane after winning the IndyCar Grand Prix of Alabama on Sunday in Birmingham, Ala. MLB: ROUNDUP NHL: ROUNDUP Happ drives in 2 to help Astros beat Marlins THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HOUSTON — J.A. Happ pitched fourhit ball into the eighth inning and drove in two runs with a double in the Houston Astros’ 7-1 victory over the Florida Marlins on Sunday. Hunter Pence, Carlos Lee and Matt Downs also knocked in runs for the Astros, who finished with a season-high 16 hits, six for extra bases. Happ (1-1) allowed four hits in 72⁄3 innings, only two after the Marlins took a 1-0 lead in the first inning. He put Houston ahead to stay in the fourth with a two-run double off Florida starter Anibal Sanchez (0-1). Sanchez came in with a 1.54 ERA in two prior starts at Minute Maid Park, but gave up six runs on 13 hits in 42⁄3 innings. He lost for the first time in six career starts against the Astros. Plate umpire Jim Joyce ejected Florida reliever Edward Mujica in the seventh, when he hit Hall with a pitch. Hall scored on Quintero’s drive off the right-field fence, but Quintero was thrown out trying to stretch the double into a triple. Joyce ejected Astros’ reliever Aneury Rodriguez in the ninth when he hit Gaby Sanchez with a pitch. Houston manager Brad Mills protested, to no avail. Jeff Fulchino got the final three outs for the Astros. CARDINALS 6, GIANTS 1 SAN FRANCISCO — David Freese went 3 for 4 with a homer and three RBIs and Kyle Lohse allowed one run in eight innings to help St. Louis snap a three-game losing streak. Matt Holliday scored the go-ahead run and added an RBI single in his first game since undergoing an appendectomy April 1 to help the Cardinals win for just the third time in nine games this season. Barry Zito (0-1) walked five batters, including two who later scored, and the Giants were unable to complete their first three-game sweep of the Cardinals since 2001. DIAMONDBACKS 10, REDS 8 PHOENIX — Chris Young hit the decisive threerun homer and Stephen Drew had four hits and three RBIs, helping Arizona rally twice to beat Cincinnati and take two of three from the Reds. Drew’s RBI single tied it at 7 in the eighth inning, then Young drove a 3-2 pitch from Nick Masset (0-2) into the seats in left-center to put Arizona ahead for only the second time all day. The Reds led 5-0 after 212⁄ innings before Heat Continued from page 1B Mario Chalmers had nine points in the second quarter, when the Heat took the lead. Joel Anthony had eight rebounds in the first half, two less than the entire Boston roster. Zydrunas Ilgauskas scored six quick points early in the third as the Heat remained in control, and Anthony took advantage of a triple-team on James for a dunk and a 74-59 lead on the final play of the third quarter. Then James took over. An alley-oop dunk from Chalmers, followed by a 20-foot jumper, pushed Miami’s edge to 81-61. Of course, this being Celtics-Heat, nothing would come easily for Miami. Down by 22, Boston ran off 12 straight JOE MAHONEY/The Associated Press Avalanche right wing David Jones tries to flip the puck past Oilers goalie Nikolai Khabibulin in overtimeon Sunday in Denver. Colorado won, 4-3, on the final day of the regular season. BOB LEVEY/The Associated Press Marlins manager Edwin Rodriguez, right, argues with home plate umpire Jim Joyce after Joyce ejected Marlins pitcher Edward Mujica for hitting the Astros’ Bill Hall in seventh inning on Sunday in Houston. Arizona scored five in the fifth off Mike Leake, the last three on Ryan Roberts’ homer, to go up 6-5. Jonny Gomes’ two-run homer off Aaron Heilman in the seventh put Cincinnati back on top 7-6. Heilman (1-0) allowed two runs in three innings to get the win. BREWERS 6, CUBS 5 MILWAUKEE — Pinch-hitter Casey McGehee delivered a two-run homer with two outs in the eighth inning and the Brewers rallied to beat the Chicago Cubs. Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun each hit a tworun homer for Milwaukee, which has won five of six after an 0-4 start. McGehee had been mired in a 3-for-22 slump this homestand and didn’t get the start. Cubs reliever Kerry Wood (0-1) walked Yuniesky Betancourt to open the eighth and Betancourt reached second on a sacrifice bunt. AMERICAN LEAGUE RANGERS 3, ORIOLES 0 BALTIMORE — Derek Holland allowed five hits over six innings, Adrian Beltre and Ian Kinsler homered, and Texas topped Baltimore to win its third consecutive series. The Rangers took two of three from the Orioles and improved to 8-1, matching the best start in franchise history (1989). The only other seasons in which Texas opened with more than two successive series wins were 1989 (five straight) and 1993 (four). Holland (2-0) struck out six, walked two and hit a batter with a pitch. The left-hander had only one perfect inning, but he never failed to get the outs he needed. points, Allen starting it with a four-point play, and Pierce adding both a 3-pointer and a three-point play to get the Celtics within 85-75. It was the last gasp. Mike Bibby’s 3pointer with 4:49 left, followed by Bosh’s follow of James’ miss, sent the lead back to 15. And with 2:38 left, Celtics coach Doc Rivers went deep into the bench, essentially conceding. Boston scored the game’s first eight points and hit eight of its first nine shots. The Celtics were making it seem easy, especially when Garnett — who hadn’t made a 3-pointer all season — stepped into one from the left wing and connected for a 22-15 lead. Boston went scoreless for the next 6:17, and just about everything seemed to change. Miami got within 22-21 after the first Masters Continued from page 1B Then came the pivotal 17th, where Schwartzel made a 10-foot birdie. It was the first time all day he had the lead to himself, and he finished it off in style. South Africans now have won two of the last three majors, following Louis Oosthuizen winning at St. Andrews last summer. This one came on the 50th anniversary of Gary Player becoming the first international player to win the Masters. ROYALS 9, TIGERS 5 DETROIT — Wilson Betemit went 4 for 4 with two doubles and Kansas City beat the mistakeprone Detroit Tigers. Luke Hochevar (1-1) pitched seven solid innings and every Royals starter had a hit. Miguel Cabrera, Jhonny Peralta and Alex Avila all homered for Detroit, but the Tigers made four errors. WHITE SOX 6, RAYS 1 CHICAGO — Paul Konerko hit two home runs and Gavin Floyd pitched eight masterful innings as Chicago beat the slumping Tampa Bay Rays. Konerko’s solo shots in the first and fifth gave him three home runs this season. He has a 10game hitting streak dating to last year and has driven in a run in all but one game for Chicago this year. The loss dropped the Rays to 1-8, the worst start in franchise history, and manager Joe Maddon was ejected for arguing a call at first base. Tampa Bay has scored 11 runs in its eight losses. Jeff Niemann (0-2) only made it 46 pitches into his second start of the season. He allowed five runs, three earned, and five hits over 223⁄ innings. ATHLETICS 5, TWINS 3 MINNEAPOLIS — Hideki Matsui homered to help the Athletics break out of a season-long offensive slump and Brandon McCarthy pitched into the eighth inning in Oakland’s victory over Minnesota. McCarthy (1-0) allowed two runs and nine hits with five strikeouts in 713⁄ innings and Josh Willingham also went deep for the A’s, who took two of three in the Twins’ first home series of the season. Brian Fuentes earned his third save. quarter, then took its first lead on Bosh’s first field goal on the opening possession of the second. Tensions were already high, and emotions soon boiled over. Jermaine O’Neal — who had just been easily scored on by James 27 seconds earlier in transition — tried to stop another drive by the two-time reigning MVP with a shoulder check, making no play on the ball. A scrum quickly broke out under the basket. O’Neal earned a flagrant-1, James got a technical for throwing the ball back at O’Neal, Wade and Pierce also got technicals for some pushing and jostling, and a small amount of debris flew from the stands onto the court. Bosh earned another technical 21⁄2 minutes later for arguing he tied up a loose ball with Rondo, only to have referees award Boston a timeout. “I am absolutely delighted for Charl and South Africa. Congratulations and very well done to him. That is how you finish like a champion!” Player said on Twitter. In so many respects, this looked more like 1986 when Jack Nicklaus charged on the back nine to win a sixth green jacket over a Hall of Fame cast of contenders. There were twice as many possibilities at this Masters, though, from Woods and former Masters champion Angel Cabrera, from Geoff Ogilvy and Luke Donald, from K.J. Choi and Bo Van Pelt, who made two eagles on the back nine. Notebook Continued from page 1B “We don’t have a lot of playoff experience and that was a playoff type atmosphere,” Leal said about the first game against Mater Lakes. “We were just pushing, but I think we’ll be alright We get them next week again and in the first round of districts.

Boston will meet Montreal in made 33 saves and the Detroit the opening round of the playoffs. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Red Wings kept defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago from clinching the final playoff berth in the Western Conference with a 4-3 victory over the Blackhawks on Sunday. Needing a single point to get in, Chicago still returned to the postseason when Minnesota beat Dallas, 5-3, on Sunday night. Drew Miller, Danny Cleary, Tomas Holmstrom and Pavel Datsyuk scored for the Red Wings, who had already locked down the No. 3 playoff seed in the West. Michael Frolik, Brent Seabrook and Duncan Keith had goals for Chicago. DEVILS 3, BRUINS 2 AVALANCHE 4, OILERS 3 DENVER — David Jones knocked in a rebound during a power play 3:57 into overtime and Colorado finished the season on a winning note by beating Edmonton. The game marked the farewell performance of Avalanche captain Adam Foote, who announced Friday that he was retiring after 19 seasons in the NHL, all but two with the AvalancheQuebec Nordiques franchise. Trailing 3-2, Colorado pulled into a tie at 19:30 of the third when Milan Hejduk scored. In overtime, Matt Duchene sent a shot that caromed away from Khabibulin and to Jones for the winner. Colorado snapped a four-game losing streak, but still finished with the fewest wins (30) since the team moved to Denver from Quebec for the 1995-96 season. Edmonton joined them outside of the playoffs, finishing last in the NHL for the second consecutive season. NEWARK, N.J. — Vladimir Zharkov and Alexander Urbom scored thirdperiod goals and New Jersey topped playoff-bound Boston in what was Jacques Lemaire’s final game as Devils coach. The 66-year-old Lemaire said before the regular-season finale that he would disclose after the game whether he would return next season. Once it was over, he said he wouldn’t be back in New Jersey. Patrik Elias also scored, and Johan Hedberg made 24 saves for the Devils, who missed the postseason for the first time since 1996. PENGUINS 5, THRASHERS 2 Panthers McCabe, Chris Higgins, Dennis Wideman and Radek Dvorak. All six of those players finished the season among Florida’s top 11 in scoring, despite being gone for the past several weeks. DeBoer came to the Panthers in 2008 after 13 seasons of leading teams in the Ontario Hockey League, a top junior level where his clubs won twothirds of their games. And there was promise in his first season with Florida, when the team put up 93 points, its highest total in nearly a decade. The last two seasons have gone the other way. Florida finished with 77 points last season and five fewer in 2010-11, finishing last in the Southeast Division both times and adding to the team’s historic slump: The Panthers haven’t prevailed in a playoff series since 1996 and haven’t played a postseason game since 2000. Continued from page 1B DeBoer’s team closed the season Saturday with a 1-0 win over the Washington Capitals, ending a 10-game winless streak. Injuries and moves to trade away some of the franchise’s better players in an effort to build toward the future have doomed Florida in the past two seasons, but DeBoer believed progress was being made. “No one is happy with the results,” DeBoer said. The Panthers won only eight of 33 games following the AllStar break, around the time Tallon essentially decided to become a seller instead of a buyer. Florida made eight trades in February alone, loading up with draft picks and future prospects by shipping away players such as Michael Frolik, Cory Stillman, Bryan ATLANTA — Tyler Kennedy scored the first of Pittsburgh’s four secondperiod goals, reserve goalie Brent Johnson won his fourth straight decision, and the Penguins closed the regular season with a victory over already-eliminated Atlanta. Pascal Dupuis, Michael Rupp and rookie Mark Letestu added goals to give the Penguins a 4-1 lead 18:14 into the second. Kennedy’s 21st goal came on a power play. Mike Comrie scored an empty-net goal to make it 5-1, and Ben Lovejoy finished with three assists. 4B THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ◆ MONDAY, APRIL 11, 2011 KEYSWIDE CLASSIFIED HOROSCOPES for today Monday, April 11, 2011 It could prove to be highly advantageous for you to get more deeply involved in some kind of club or organizational activity in the year ahead.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - There’s a good chance you could encounter someone who is as strong-willed as you are, so if you feel yourself being pushed BRIDGE TIPS to the wall, walk away rather than responding in kind. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Evaluate people realistically and handle them appropriately, because underestimating a competitor would most assuredly deprive you of what you hope to achieve. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Attentively waiting to get all the pertinent facts will help you avoid reacting negatively to the ideas of others before you know what they’re talking about. Patience is your friend. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Involvement with the wrong people could prove to be very expensive for you. Be wary of anybody who tries to profit in some manner from your assets or resources. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Your evaluations of events or developments are likely to be more accurate than those of your companions, but, even so, don’t come on too strong when trying to prove a point. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Like the song says, hang on to your ego. It could cause you to totally disregard what you know to be true and spur you to attempt to do something that is way over your head. All signs point to a huge failure. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Should there be some political stirrings within your peer group, do not get involved regardless of how much you’re pressured to do so. Whichever side you support will be the wrong one. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If someone you hold in high regard disappoints you, chances are it will be your own fault. This is because you’re putting far more credence in his or her abilities than this person possesses. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Be careful, because you may not be as competent at mental gymnastics as you think you are. Just because you have some of the necessary skills, such as enthusiasm and initiative, they won’t be enough. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- When it comes to your financial or commercial dealings, the ground on which you’re standing may not be as firm as it looks. You could get mired in mud. From good bidding to excellent defense By Phillip Alder Malcolm Forbes, who was an avid bridge player, said, “When in doubt, duck.” That is not an attitude one would associate with him, because he loved life and adventure. But one of his words works well in today’s deal. Who should come out on top after West leads the spade eight against three notrump? South was right to rebid two notrump, showing 1820 points, not to raise diamonds. Note that five diamonds has no play. South starts with five top tricks: one spade, one heart and three clubs. He will get a second spade trick, and could get two more in hearts, but that would get him up to only eight winners. Declarer must attack diamonds. This is an important defensive principle: When you are trying to establish a suit in which declarer has two stoppers, make him use one of them as quickly as possible -- and trick one isn’t too soon. East must not play his spade queen; he should overtake with the nine. South wins with his jack and plays a diamond, but West takes his king and leads his second spade, establishing East’s suit while he still has the diamond ace as an entry. Note that if East plays the spade queen at trick one, it is South who benefits from a duck, letting East hold the trick. East will return a spade, but declarer wins cheaply and plays a diamond. West is in but has no spade to lead, so South still retains a spade winner. He ends with an overtrick, not an undertrick.

As the procession travels to the cemetery, all cars and trucks pull over and stop. That custom strikes me as very touching. I was in another procession last week, and even the UPS truck and several semis pulled over. My question is, is this a custom only in southern Indiana where I live, or does everyone do this? -- WONDERING NEAR INDIANAPOLIS DEAR WONDERING: According to Emily Post, this consideration should be accorded regardless of where people live. She writes: “If you encounter a funeral cortege (signaled by a line of cars with headlights or flashing hazard lights on), it’s respectful to pull over to the side of the street until the cars have passed. Waiting at a green light while a cortege passes is also expected, even if someone behind you is honking to proceed.” DEAR ABBY: “Charlene” and I dated 10 years ago. We remained friends after dating. At the time, she was plus-sized. I moved away for a while, and now that I am back, Charlene will talk to me only on the phone and not in person. Her reason is she is much too large now to let me see her. She doesn’t want any human contact at all, and I’m scared for her. I have told her many times that I don’t care about her weight. I want to see her, but she won’t budge. I don’t know how to get her to snap out of it. Help! -- KEPT AWAY IN PHILADELPHIA DEAR KEPT AWAY: If Charlene has family and you know how to contact them, do so. Outline your concern that their relative has gained so much weight she’s gone into hiding -- and hope they can convince her to seek help. Other than that, there’s no way to force direct contact on someone who doesn’t want to see you. However, you should continue to be a supportive telephone friend. She may need all the emotional support she will allow. DEAR ABBY: I divorced two years ago after 25 years of marriage. During the divorce I met a man who helped me through the emotional roller coaster I was on.We became close and hoped to be married eventually. He died unexpectedly of a heart attack. My mother introduced me to another man, “Donald,” who is good and kind, but who was “burned” after a divorce and a long relationship. We see each other once a week, but I’d like to see him more often. I’m having trouble being in limbo and not becoming too attached to Donald. Conventional wisdom tells me to stop waiting for him to come around. I work, volunteer, and have been asked out by other men. I have turned them down so as not to jeopardize what I currently have. Donald isn’t seeing anyone else. Can you please help set me straight once and for all? I’m in my late 40s and feeling blue about my dating situation. -- UNCERTAIN IN SOUTH CAROLINA DEAR UNCERTAIN: Has Donald TOLD you he’s not interested in marrying again? If not, he may warm to the idea eventually. However, for him to expect you to date him exclusively with no commitment on his part is unfair to you. How long have you been seeing him? It seems to me you need to have a mature discussion. From where I sit you have no reason to feel blue. You’re seeing him once a week, having a guaranteed good time, AND you can explore the possibility of a permanent relationship with him or any of the other men who have shown an interest. So think positive and enjoy yourself. 417 UNFURN.CONDOS LOWER KEYS 422 FURNISHED APTS. LOWER KEYS 428 UNFURNISHED APTS. LOWER KEYS 432 UNFURNISHED APTS. UPPER KEYS 440 UNFURN.
