soon will increase the overall
annual catch allowance for
one of the Florida Keys most
economically important and
tasty fish — yellowtail snapper.
The increases will not affect
the current daily bag limits
for recreational or commercial fishing, National Marine
Fisheries Service spokeswoman Allison Garrett said.
Instead, the new regulations increase the total allowable yellowtail catch from
2.1 million to 3.03 million
pounds, according to federal
fishery managers. The commercial limit will increase
from 1.1 million to 1.5 million pounds. The recreational limit goes from 1 million
to 1.4 million pounds, fishery managers said.
The National Marine
Fisheries Service will publish a rule change in the
Federal Register Wednesday
announcing the increase in
the allowable catch for yellowtail snapper in the jurisdiction of the South Atlantic
Fishery
Management
Council, which runs from
North Carolina to Florida.
The rule will go into effect

TONIGHT
TAVERNIER - A 48-year-old
man tried to throw his drinking buddy into the path of an
oncoming ambulance Saturday
night outside Mariner’s Hospital
after having slashed the same
man’s thumb with a box cutter,
according to reports from the
Monroe County Sheriffs Office.
Mark Peto, an unemployed
boat washer, was jailed on suspicion of felony aggravated
assault, felony aggravated battery and misdemeanor battery
for the Saturday night incident.
Ambulance driver James
Griffith said he swerved around
the duo, as one had the other in
a headlock, deputies reported.
The incident report listed the
ambulance, as well as the box
cutter, as a weapon.
Peto told authorities he only
had his pal, Guy Cooley, 51, in
a bear hug because he was trying to get him into the hospital for treatment of an injured
thumb.
The ambulance driver and
a security guard, however, told
deputies they watched Peto try
to throw Cooley in front of the
ambulance as it was leaving the
back driveway of the hospital,
91500 Overseas Hwy.
The victim told deputies he
and Peto had been drinking beer
underneath the movie theater,
which is next door to the hospital, when Peto attacked him
with the box cutter, slashing his
left thumb.
Cooley said Peto had tossed
the box cutter into the lake
behind the movie theater when
Cooley started walking to the
hospital.
Cooley said Peto grabbed
and started choking him as he
entered the hospital’s driveway.

Still no new trial for Overton
Boat burglar nabbed
Benefit helps veteran bartender
The Florida Supreme Court ruled Monday
that Thomas Mitchell Overton will remain on
death row for killing a Tavernier couple and their
unborn baby in 1991.
Overton had sought a new trial last year, alleging new evidence and other mitigating factors
had come to light. Circuit Court Judge Mark Jones
denied the request, saying Overton’s arguments
were “wholly inappropriate,” “meritless” and “his
guilt remains overwhelming,” according to the
14-page ruling Jones released in April 2012.
The Supreme Court on Monday upheld Jones’
denial of another trial.
Overton killed Michael and Susan MacIvors
and their unborn baby, and raped Susan, who
was eight months pregnant. He also was convicted of burglarizing their Upper Keys home.
Overton lost previous appeals in 2005 and
2007.
A Stock Island man was arrested
Sunday on suspicion of stealing
fishing gear from a boat docked at
Safe Harbor Marina.
Felipe Fonseca, 42, admitted to
deputies that he stole rods and
reels valued at about $1,600 on
July 16 but refused to give up his
accomplice, the Sheriff’s Office
said Monday.
The theft occurred sometime in
the early morning hours of July 16.
The victim found four fishing rods
and reels missing from his boat.
Video surveillance cameras in
the area caught two men on camera stealing the rods and reels.
Fonseca faces charges of felony
burglary and felony grand theft.

danger of being overfished, FWC biologist
Joe O’Hop said.
“The assessment results suggest the
not going to rape you!” the
man screamed into his 16year-old daughter’s ear as
he held her in a headlock,
according to police reports
released Monday.
Thomas Michael Valente,
36, faces felony charges of
domestic battery by strangulation and a felony count
of criminal mischief for the
Friday morning incident that
disrupted the 2800 block of
Harris Avenue.
Valente had been released
from jail four days earlier,
having posted $25,000 bond
for an Aug. 1 felony arrest on
suspicion of selling methamphetamine. He remained
jailed Monday for the new
charges in lieu of bond set at
more than $1 million.
Friday was his ninth arrest
in Key West in the past
decade.
Police arrived Friday to
find a naked man lying on
his side choking a young girl
from behind as two people
tried to pry him off.
“Hurry, he’s killing her!” yelled
one of the people, who police
learned was one of the girl’s
grandparents, reports said.
ing six people sunk. A Good
Samaritan pulled everyone to
safety, FWC and the Monroe
County Sheriff’s Office reported.
At 1:30 p.m. off of Plantation
Key, a woman was cut on the
thigh by a boat propeller.
She had been lobstering,
then started to climb aboard a
boat that was still in gear.
She was treated at Mariner’s
Hospital.
“She got one large cut to the
thigh and received a bunch of
stitches,” said Officer Bobby
Dube, FWC spokesman.
gfilosa@keysnews.com
Valente wouldn’t let go
until Officer Frank Duponty
Tasered him in the arm,
but the naked Valente then
started chasing a neighbor,
who had come over to help,
reports state.
A second Taser shot to the
back knocked Valente to the
ground, where he was handcuffed.
Before the teen was
attacked, Valente took a
broom out of his mother’s
hands and used it to pin her
against a wall of her home by
her throat, reports said.
Then he went after his own
daughter when she appeared,
police said.
“Every time my grandparents or someone said ‘stop’
he squeezed tighter,” the 16year-old told police later at
the hospital. “I felt like I was
going to die.”
She couldn’t break free
from the headlock her father
put her in, she told officers.
Valente’s
stepfather,
Michael Olanoff, told police
he felt that his stepson’s
intention was to choke his
own daughter to death. He
said he and his wife tried
but could not break Valente’s
hold on the girl’s airway.
Olanoff, 53, a local cab
driver, said he awoke to find
his stepson naked in his living room “forcibly” holding
his wife down on the floor,
reports said.
That’s when Valente’s
daughter came out of her
room and Valente went after
her, screaming, “She’s the
good one! She’s the one!”
as he dragged her outside,
police said.
“Olanoff stated that Valente
has been using crystal methamphetamine for the past
year,” Officer Tiffany Beeman
wrote in her report.
The girl has lived with her
grandparents, who have legal
custody, since 2005.
Valente told police he is a
roofer by trade, but his arrest
paperwork said he is unem-
ployed and has no home
address.
Two neighbors separately saw him running naked
down Harris Avenue, yelling
and cursing.
One witness said he was
working in his garage when
he heard noise and looked
out in time to see a man
stripping off his clothing
and running to the Olanoffs’
home.

All were found unharmed
but the rash of diving scares

“It really comes down to

One diver bobbed around in
the waters north of Fleming Key
for almost three hours Sunday
evening before rescuers pulled
him to safety.
That rescue involved a

the Coast Guard launched a

Bermont.

The fishery supports 100 full-time fishermen and 175 part-time fishermen in

Romney looking better
in the rearview mirror
t is, perhaps, only fitting
that former Massachusetts
Gov. Mitt Romney chose
a New Hampshire event to
make his first public appearance after last November’s
election defeat at the hands of
President Barack Obama.
Romney was the primary
attraction at a state GOP
fundraiser attended by
about 200 party faithful in
Wolfeboro on Aug. 6 and,
even better, he came bearing
gifts.
Romney and The Granite
State go back a long way, to
at least 1997, when the thenCEO of Bain Capital bought
a large waterfront house
on Lake Winnipesaukee in
Wolfeboro.
Just over 10 years later,
Romney finished second
to John McCain in the 2008
New Hampshire presidential
primary in what was merely
a warm up to 2012, when he
carried the state Republican
primary with 39 percent of
the vote in a large field.
That helped catapult
Romney to his party’s nomination and last fall’s bruising general-election defeat
to Obama, a contest that
Romney — by all accounts —
thought for sure he would win
right up until election night.
Romney faded into the
background afterward, granting a few interviews but making no public political appearances before Tuesday.
According to remarks
released by his office, Romney
told the donors that “I’m
probably not the first person
you’d ask for advice,” given
the results of the last election. “But because we all learn
from our mistakes, I may have
a thought or two of value.”
He did, taking aim at those
Republicans who think refusing to raise the debt ceiling
— resulting in a possible government shutdown — might
be a worthwhile trade-off
if it chokes off funding for
Obama’s Affordable Care Act.
“I badly want Obamacare
to go away, and stripping it
I
Editorial
of funds has appeal. But we
need to exercise great care
about any talk of shutting
down government,” said the
former Massachusetts governor. “What would come next
when soldiers aren’t paid,
when seniors fear for their
Medicare and Social Security,
and when the FBI is off duty?”
Bad idea, said Romney,
without mentioning senators
Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz or
Mike Lee, among three who
are pushing the strategy.
“I’m afraid that in the final
analysis, Obamacare would
get its funding, our party
would suffer in the next
elections, and the people
of the nation would not be
happy,” he said. “I think there
are better ways to remove
Obamacare.”
If it’s true that candidates
somehow have a way of looking just a little better in the
rear-view mirror, Romney
may be only the most recent
example of that. And it’s a
view enhanced by the fact
that the man who defeated
him seems to be spinning his
wheels, unable to extricate
himself from the mud of
Washington partisanship.
But Romney’s comments
also are consistent with a
man who can now speak his
mind because he no longer is
in courting mode. He always
conducted himself with a dignity that reflected well on his
party — even if he was always
viewed with a certain amount
of suspicion by the party’s
far right wing — but he’s no
longer encumbered with the
weight of being a suitor.
That alone makes him particularly valuable in the role
of party fundraiser and sensible consiglieri, even if his
remarks in Wolfeboro aren’t
likely to allay the suspicions
of those conservatives within
the GOP who never really
trusted him.

Homeless center will
attract more homeless
I find the discussions around
the homeless situation in Key
West to be circuitous and the
conclusion that the solution is
a 24/7 center to be illogical. If
new arrivals at Keys Overnight
Temporary Shelter are to be
believed, Key West is a desired
destination for the homeless
— the beaches, the ambience,
the climate, and the presence
of KOTS.
If the residents of KOTS are
representative of the homeless
population in Key West in general, yes, we can estimate that
95-plus percent come from
outside the area.
Using that sample again,
95 percent of that 95 percent
are not interested in gainful employment or bettering
their situation, especially if it
means jeopardizing their benefits checks. They accept their
lot.
Given these facts, I do not
understand the rationale for a
24-hour facility that will have
relevant support services in
situ. By making a 24-hour facility, we will be making Key West
an even more desirable destination, and thus compound an
already untenable situation.
We should be looking for
ways to make Key West less
attractive as a destination, not
more.

Bioidentical hormones
have health benefits
The letter by Dr. Valle regarding bioidentical hormone relief
therapy (BHRT) is degrading to
us women who are adults and
make a personal choice with
our well-being. Our choice to
use traditional/non-bioidentical versus bioidentical hormones is an experiment either
way.
My research before starting
this regimen was thorough. I
am 53 years old, in cessation
of menses over the last year
and half and have been on this
treatment for the last two years
with amazing results. My last
two mammograms and pap
smears have been normal and
no more suffering due to night
sweats, hot flashes and more
importantly mood swings. My
personality was so extreme to
the point of frequent bouts of
yelling and crying. How wonderful since starting BHRT to
feel youthful, beautiful and
simply calm again. Menopause
is a natural progression and a
tough ride.
[The doctor was] not factual when talking about the
Women’s Health Initiative
study that had to be halted
in 2002. Yes, it was dispelled
because of adverse health conditions that developed among
many of the subjects. [She]
failed to mention that the subjects of the study were limited
to postmenopausal women
with a combined average age
of 68 years old. These two factors are significant — most of
the women studied had been
in a state of hormonal decline
or complete loss of hormones
for 15 years or more, putting
them at risk for the development of diseases that estrogen, progesterone and testosterone could have prevented
if administered earlier in their
lifespan.
Also, the WHI study used
traditional/non-bioidentical hormones, not bioidentical hormones, for therapies
administered to these subjects.
I am retested by urine, not saliva, every six months locally
to keep the perfect dosage
of hormones. Ladies, please
research the Women’s Health
Initiative study (WHI) and you
will find much on BHRT and
disease prevention, heart disease, breast cancer and osteoporosis.

Help thy neighbor and go to prison — the failure of mass incarceration
BY NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
The New York Times
f you want to understand all
that is wrong with America’s
criminal justice system,
take a look at the nightmare
experienced by Edward Young.
Young, now 43, was convicted of several burglaries as a
young man but then resolved
that he would turn his life
around. Released from prison
in 1996, he married, worked
six days a week and raised four
children in Hixson, Tenn.
Then a neighbor died, and
his widow, Neva Mumpower,
asked Young to help sell her
husband’s belongings. He later
found, mixed in among them,
seven shotgun shells, and he
put them aside so that his children wouldn’t find them.
“He was trying to help me
out,” Mumpower told me. “My
husband was a pack rat, and I
was trying to clear things out.”
Then Young became a suspect in burglaries at storage
facilities and vehicles in the
area, and the police searched
his home and found the forgotten shotgun shells as well as
some stolen goods. The U.S.
attorney in Chattanooga prosecuted Young under a federal
law that bars ex-felons from
possessing guns or ammunition. In this case, under the
Armed Career Criminal Act,
that meant a 15-year minimum
sentence.
The U.S. attorney, William
I
Killian, went after Young
— even though none of Young’s
past crimes involved a gun,
even though Young had no
shotgun or other weapon to
go with the seven shells, and
even though, by all accounts,
he had no idea that he was violating the law when he helped
Mumpower sell her husband’s
belongings.
In May, a federal judge,
acknowledging that the case
was Dickensian but saying that
he had no leeway under the
law, sentenced Young
to serve a minimum
of 15 years in federal prison. It didn’t
matter that the local
authorities eventually dismissed the
burglary charges.
So the federal
government, at a
time when it is cutting education spending, is preparing to
spend $415,000 during the next
15 years to imprison a man for
innocently possessing seven
shotgun shells while trying to
help a widow in the neighborhood. And, under the law,
there is no early release: Young
will spend the full 15 years in
prison.
This case captures what is
wrong with our “justice” system: We have invested in mass
incarceration in ways that are
crushingly expensive, break up
families and are often simply
cruel. With less than 5 percent
of the world’s population, the
United States has almost onequarter of the world’s prisoners.
This hasn’t always been
the case, but it is the result of
policies such as mandatory
minimum sentences since the
1970s.
In 1978, the United States
had 307,000 inmates in state
and federal prisons. That
soared to a peak of more than
1.6 million in 2009. Since then,
the number of inmates has
declined for three consecutive
years to 1.57 million in 2012.
The number of juveniles detained has
also begun to drop
since peaking in
2000, although the
United States still
detains children at
a rate five times that
of the next highest
country.
In short, there’s some hope
that this U.S. experiment in
mass incarceration has been
recognized as a failure and
will be gradually unwound.
Among the leaders in moving
away from the old policies are
blue states and red states alike,
including New York and Texas.
But America still has twice as
many prisoners today as under
President Ronald Reagan.
Almost everyone seems to
acknowledge that locking up
vast numbers of nonviolent
offenders is a waste of money.
California devotes $179,400
to keep a juvenile in detention for a year, and spends less
than $10,000 per student in its
schools.
Granted, mass incarceration may have been one factor in reduced crime in the
last couple of decades; there’s
mixed evidence. But, if so, the
economic and social cost has
been enormous — including
the breakup of families and
the increased risk that children
of those families will become
criminals a generation later.
There’s also contrary evidence that incarceration, especially of young people, doesn’t
work well in preventing crime.
One careful study of 35,000
young offenders by Anna Aizer
and Joseph J. Doyle Jr. reached
the startling conclusion that
jailing juveniles leads them
to be more likely to commit
crimes as adults. Milder sentences, such as electronic monitoring and home detention,
were actually more effective at
preventing adult crime.
Alternatives to incarceration
are both cheaper and more
efficient. Youth Villages has an
excellent record of working
with troubled youngsters and
their families, and of keeping
them from committing crimes.
So do some job-training and
education programs. Mass
incarceration has been particularly devastating for blacks
and members of other minority
groups, as well as for the poor
generally. In this case, Edward
Young is white.
Conservatives often argue
that there is a link between
family breakdown and cycles of
poverty. They’re right: Boys are
more likely to get into trouble
without a dad at home, and we
have a major problem with the
irresponsibility of young men
who conceive babies but don’t
raise them.
We also have a serious
problem with the irresponsibility of mass incarceration.
When almost 1 percent of
Americans are imprisoned
(and a far higher percentage of men of color in lowincome neighborhoods),
our criminal justice system
becomes a cause of family
breakdown and contributes to
the delinquency of a generation of children. And mass
incarceration interacts with
other government policies,
such as the way the drug war
is implemented, to have a
disproportionate effect on
African-Americans. Black men
use marijuana at roughly the
same rate as white men but
are more than three times as
likely to be arrested over it.
Young is particularly close to
his children, ages 6 to 16. After
back problems and rheumatoid arthritis left him disabled,
he was a stay-at-home dad
while his wife worked in a
doctor’s office. When the judge
announced the sentence, the
children all burst into tears.
“I can’t believe my kids lose
their daddy for the next 15
years,” his wife, Stacy, told me.
“He never tried to get a firearm
in the 16 years I was with him.
It’s crazy. He’s getting a longer
sentence than people who’ve
killed or raped.”
Young’s lawyer, Christopher
Varner, of Chattanooga, is
appealing the sentence and
says he is shaken by the outcome. “It’s shocking,” he says.
“That’s not what we do in this
country.”
I asked Killian, the U.S. attorney, why on earth he would
want to send a man to prison
for 15 years for innocently possessing seven shotgun shells.
“The case raised serious public
safety concerns,” Killian said.
Oh.
The classic caricature of
justice run amok is Inspector
Javert in Victor Hugo’s novel
“Les Misérables,” pursuing
Jean Valjean for stealing bread
for hungry children. In that
case, Valjean knew that he
was breaking the law; Edward
Young had no idea.
Some day, Americans will
look back and wonder at how
we as a society could be much
more willing to invest in prisons than in schools. They will
be astonished that we sent a
man to federal prison for 15
years for trying to help a widow.

Gunman shoots bus driver
Casino owner stiffed US on taxes
‘Hyperloop’ would link LA-SF
A gunman barged onto a bus and shot
the driver during rush hour in busy downtown Seattle on Monday, sparking a foot
chase that ended when he ran onto another bus carrying about 15 people and was
cut down when an officer fired through the
windows, authorities said.
The officers had to make a “life-anddeath” decision about whether to shoot the
suspect on the second bus, Seattle Assistant
Police Chief Paul McDonagh said.
“I believe they made the right choice,”
he said.
The wounded, 67-year-old driver was
in satisfactory condition at Harborview
Medical Center, and the suspect was in
critical condition, hospital spokeswoman
Leila Gray said. Their names were not
immediately released.
A New Jersey man is charged with failing to pay taxes on nearly $4 million

David Migliore made an initial appearance Monday in federal court in Newark.
He’s charged with failing to pay taxes on
about $3.9 million in income for 2009,
2010 and 2011.
The U.S. attorney’s office says Migliore
owned the Island Club Casino in Trinidad,
as well as several limited liability corporations in New Jersey.
The 50-year-old Brielle resident faces
three counts each of tax evasion and failing to file personal income taxes.
Migliore didn’t enter a plea and has
another court appearance scheduled for
next week.

The “Hyperloop” system would use a
large tube. Inside, capsules would float
on air, traveling at over 700 miles per
hour.
The air would be sucked by a powerful
fan at the front and expelled at the rear.
Musk has said he’s too busy to oversee
the Hyperloop. Instead, he hopes others
will take it on.

FORT LAUDERDALE — Jury
selection began Monday for
two men accused of murder in the mob-related 2001
slaying of a South Florida
businessman, a case that
weaves together reputed
New York gangsters, a once
high-flying
Washington
powerbroker, gambling on
the high seas and the former operator of a mattress
store chain who is now a key
prosecution witness.
If convicted of firstdegree murder, Anthony
“Big Tony” Moscatiello,
75, and Anthony “Little
Tony” Ferrari, 56, could
both get the death penalty. Prosecutors say the pair
orchestrated the shooting
death of Konstantinos “Gus”
Boulis, a self-made Greek
immigrant who became
wealthy after founding the
Miami Subs sandwich chain
and operating the SunCruz
Casinos gambling fleet.
The case, one of the oldest in Broward County, has
taken 12 years to get to trial
in part because the two
Tonys weren’t arrested until
2005. Lengthy legal wrangling and reassignment of
judges also played a role.
A third man arrested in the
case, James “Pudgy” Fiorillo,
pleaded guilty last year to
murder conspiracy charges
and is expected to testify
against his former cohorts.
Prosecutors say they will
establish that Moscatiello
was a member of New York’s
Gambino crime family —
once headed by John Gotti
— and that he and Ferrari
used that connection to rub
out Boulis during a power
struggle over the lucrative
SunCruz gambling ships.
Before he was slain, Boulis
had sold SunCruz to former
Washington lobbyist Jack
Abramoff and his partner

The Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE — Florida’s
insurance
commissioner
says there are reasons why
homeowner rates in the state
are not coming down despite
reports that insurers are
starting to save money on
one of their biggest expenses.
And he said that in some
instances rates may still go
up since some companies
have spread increases out
over several years.
Chief Financial Officer
Jeff Atwater last week asked
Kevin McCarty to explain to
him why costs have not been
dropping this year. Florida
hasn’t been hit by a hurricane since 2005 and industry reports point out that
the cost of reinsurance has
dropped by 15 percent to 20
percent this year.
Insurers purchase reinsurance to provide financial
backing in case of major
claims.
McCarty wrote Atwater
last Friday and told him that
in some cases insurers are
purchasing additional reinsurance instead of passing
on the savings to homeowners. He said there is no “firm
rule” on how much must be
purchased and that rating
agencies are requiring some
insurers to buy more coverage.
“While the average reinsurance cost might have
decreased this year, not
every insurance company
will experience a drop in its
reinsurance costs,” McCarty
wrote.
He also added that there
hasn’t been enough time for
insurers to reflect the sav-
lived in the Howard Beach
section of Queens in New
York and how often he visited Florida as part of his
SunCruz duties. He said he
paid his own way to fly to
South Florida in 2002 to give
a statement to police investigating the Boulis murder
and that he was never told
he was a suspect.
“The only thing they told
me was that my name came
up in the investigation of
a homicide,” Moscatiello
said.
Kidan, who is not implicated in the Boulis killing,
testified at a 2012 hearing
that Moscatiello told him
that he was behind the slaying. According to Kidan, the
plan was initially to only
talk with Boulis or possibly
kidnap him.
“He said it was a decision
that he made, that just had
to be done,” Kidan testified,
referring to his meeting with
Moscatiello.
Police also have cellphone
evidence that places Ferrari
and Fiorillo within 500 feet
of the site of Boulis’ killing,
and evidence that one phone
was used to call Moscatiello
a short time after the slaying.
Fiorillo testified that he
took a black Ford Mustang
used in the killing to a body
shop and that he tossed
the weapon, a .380-caliber handgun, into a South
Florida river. It hasn’t been
recovered.
The trial is expected to last
several weeks. Ferrari has
been jailed since the men
were arrested in September
2005. Moscatiello, however,
has been free on $500,000
bail

NEW YORK — Jessie
Mueller has nabbed a beautiful Broadway role — she’ll be
playing celebrated songwriter
Carole King in a new musical
about the woman who wrote

Producers said Monday
that Mueller, who was last on
Broadway opposite Matthew

ings in their rates. McCarty
says most reinsurance contracts start on June 1.
McCarty did add that some
insurers have indicated they
plan to reduce rates in some
parts of the state. Insurers
are required to update their
rates once a year. But he also
noted that some companies
have chosen “to transition
large rate increases” over a
number of years meaning
that a price hike “may be still
be warranted.”
McCarty also warned that
that reinsurance reductions
do not “translate into a oneto-one reduction” in rates.
He said that one company
recently proposed dropping
its rates by 8 percent despite
having its reinsurance costs
go down by nearly 20 percent.
Atwater’s office did not
immediately respond for
comment on Monday. But
last week Atwater said that
Floridians needed to see a
reduction in their insurance
bills.
The cost of insurance has
been hotly debated on the
campaign trail and in the
Legislature for years.
Annual
reports
prepared by Florida’s Office of
Insurance Regulation show
that the department has
been approving more than
100 rate hikes a year since
2009, including requests to
raise rates by double-digits.
Industry officials argue
that insurers in the past did
not charge adequate rates
to deal with the real risk
of covering homes in hurricane-prone Florida. The
fragile nature of the market
has been exposed by storms
such as Hurricane Andrew in
1992, a Category 5 storm that
destroyed much of the South
Florida city of Homestead,
and the series of storms that
battered the state in 2004
and 2005.

Adam Kidan, who previously ran the Dial-A-Mattress
chain and is also now a key
prosecution witness.
Abramoff and Kidan would
later plead guilty to federal
fraud charges in connection
with the $147.5 million purchase of SunCruz and serve
federal jail time. Although
Abramoff is on the Boulis
prosecution’s witness list,
it’s not clear whether he will
testify.
Abramoff also was one

which prompted Congress in
2007 to pass a law restricting
gifts from lobbyists.
Boulis, 51, was shot to
death at the wheel of his green

his Fort Lauderdale office
Feb. 6, 2001. Prosecution
witnesses are expected to
testify that the slaying was

who Kidan said in a sworn
statement was brought from
New York by Moscatiello for
the job. Gurino himself was
later fatally shot in a dispute
with the owner of a Boca
Raton delicatessen.
The defense won one legal

Circuit Judge Ilona Holmes
ruled that the four-year statute of limitations had run
out on a charge of solicitation to commit murder
against both Moscatiello
and Ferrari. The two remain
charged with first-degree
murder and murder conspiracy; they have pleaded
not guilty.
Prosecutor Greg Rossman
said the state will appeal
Holmes’ ruling while the
trial continues. He said
jury selection is expected
to take most of this week,
and Holmes said jurors may
be sequestered because of
heavy media attention.

“I said you still have hope,”
Peterson said when asked what
she and LeBaron said to each
other after the sentencing. “He
said, ‘I’ll never give up.’ We
weren’t speaking about appeals
or that process. It was about life
and death.”
Rene Palomino, also a defense
attorney with the Office of
Criminal Conflict, praised Jones
after the sentencing.

jurors he hatched a plan with
his former girlfriend, Kirsten
Whitmore, to kidnap Gardner,
torture him into giving up his
financial information and then
steal his boat Flo to Me before
sailing to freedom in Belize.
Whitmore is serving an
18-year sentence as part of a
September 2009 plea agreement that called for her to testify
against LeBaron.
She told jurors she hadn’t
planned on killing anyone, and
LeBaron’s actions forced the
couple to cancel their plans for
Belize. She testified she heard
Gardner beg for his life in the
darkness of the boat cabin.
Dr. Ronald Wright, a forensic
pathologist called by the defense,
testified during a special hearing
after LeBaron’s May 1 conviction
that Gardner likely was unconscious when LeBaron stabbed
Gardner three times in the head
and nine times in the chest.
Monroe County Medical
Examiner
Dr.
E.
Hunt
Scheuerman, who testified
for the state, disputed Wright’s
assessment, saying a determination of Gardner’s consciousness
during the stabbing could not be
made based on the evidence.
Photos by ROB O’NEAL/The Citizen
Circuit Judge Mark Jones said the murder of Richard Gardner was
committed by a ‘pathetically weak, cowardly and disturbed’ man,
before sentencing LeBaron to life in prison without the chance for
parole.
Even before stabbing Gardner,
LeBaron had knocked out seven
of the victim’s teeth and shattered his upper and lower jaws.
With their potential money
source dead, the couple fled in
Gardner’s car to Utah, where
they were arrested and extradited to Key West.
“The court did a diligent effort
assessing evidence in this case
and we’re satisfied the court gave
its best effort and we believe a
life sentence is a very long sentence and will serve the community well,” said State Attorney
Catherine Vogel. “We have great
respect for the court’s difficult
decision in this case.”
“I think Jones tried to be fair
in all the decisions in this case
and today was no different,” said
Chief Assistant State Attorney
Manny Madruga, who prosecuted LeBaron alongside Assistant
State Attorney Val Winter.
Defense attorney Kellie
Peterson, with the Office of
Criminal Conflict and Civil
Regional Counsel, argued
against death during the penalty
phase.
Jonathan LeBaron enters Circuit Judge Mark Jones’ courtroom to hear his fate Monday.
Mob boss guilty in 11 killings
Hillsboro, Mo. and Nicholaus
P. Thompson, 28, of Marshall,
Mo., were all cited for seconddegree misdemeanor possession of over-the-limit lobster.
The maximum penalty for a
second-degree misdemeanor
is $500 in fines in 60 days in
jail.
“Come on vacation and
leave on probation,” Dube said
of the case Monday. “It’s our
first big case of the season.”
The investigation began
when another boater gave two
officers a tip that the men were
poaching lobsters, so officers
waited at the canal on Saturday
and conducted a boat safety
and wildlife inspection, reports
say.
Finding no lobsters aboard,
the officers asked if they could
search the house, reports say.
Inside the house, officers
reportedly found 133 onequart bags in two separate
freezers, each bag containing
three wrung tails for a total of
399 tails.
Lobster season began on
Aug. 6 and state law allows
each recreational angler six
lobsters per day as per state
law. That means the five men
would have been allowed 150
lobsters total.
All five men provided written
statements to the officers and
“four of the statements state
that once they harvested their
limit they would return to the
dock, have lunch and go back
out and harvest another limit
of lobster,” the reports state.
Florida spiny lobster season runs from Aug. 6 through
March 31.

BY DENISE LAVOIE
AND JAY LINDSAY
BOSTON — James “Whitey”
Bulger, the feared Boston mob
boss who became one of the
nation’s most-wanted fugitives, was convicted Monday
in a string of 11 killings and
dozens of other gangland
crimes, many of them committed while he was said to be
an FBI informant.
Bulger, 83, stood silently and
showed no reaction to the verdict, which brought to a close
a case that not only transfixed
the city with its grisly violence
but exposed corruption inside
the Boston FBI and an overly
cozy relationship between the
bureau and its underworld
snitches.
Bulger was charged primarily with racketeering, which
listed 33 criminal acts —
among them, 19 murders that
he allegedly helped orchestrate
or carried out himself during
the 1970s and ‘80s while he led
the Winter Hill Gang, Boston’s
ruthless Irish mob.
After 4½ days of deliberations, the federal jury decided
he took part in 11 of those murders, along with nearly all the
other crimes on the list, including acts of extortion, money
laundering and drug dealing.
He was also found guilty of 30
other offenses, including possession of machine guns.
Bulger could get life in prison at sentencing Nov. 13. But
given his age, even a modest term could amount to a
life sentence for the slightly
stooped,
white-bearded
Bulger.
As court broke up, Bulger
turned to his relatives and
gave them a thumbs-up. A
woman in the gallery taunted
him as he was led away, apparently imitating machine-gun
fire as she yelled: “Rat-a-tattat, Whitey!”
Outside the courtroom, relatives of the victims hugged
each other, the prosecutors
and even defense attorneys.
Patricia Donahue wept, saying it was a relief to see Bulger
convicted in the murder of her
husband, Michael Donahue,
who authorities say was an
innocent victim who died in
a hail of gunfire while giving
a ride to an FBI informant
marked for death by Bulger.
Thomas Donahue, who
was 8 when his father was
killed, said: “Thirty-one years
of deceit, of cover-up of my
father’s murder. Finally we
have somebody guilty of it.
Thirty-one years — that’s a
long time.” He said that when
he heard the verdict, “I wanted
to jump up. I was like, ‘Damn
right.’”
“Today is a day that many in
this city thought would never
come,” said U.S. Attorney
Carmen Ortiz. “This day of
reckoning has been a long time
in coming.” She added: “We
hope that we stand here today
to mark the end of an era that
was very ugly in Boston’s history.”
She said Bulger’s corrupt-
ing of law enforcement officials “allowed him to operate
a violent organization in this
town, and it also allowed him
to slip away when honest law
enforcement was closing in.”
Bulger attorney J.W. Carney
Jr. said Bulger intends to
appeal because the judge
didn’t let him argue that he
had been granted immunity
for his crimes by a now-dead
federal prosecutor.
But Carney said Bulger
was pleased with the trial
and its outcome, because “it
was important to him that
the government corruption
be exposed, and important
to him to see the deals the
government was able to make
with certain people.”
“Mr. Bulger knew as soon as
he was arrested that he was
going to die behind the walls
of a prison or on a gurney and
injected with chemicals that
would kill him,” Carney said.
“This trial has never been about
Jim Bulger being set free.”
Bulger, the model for Jack
Nicholson’s sinister crime boss
in the 2006 Martin Scorsese
movie “The Departed,” was
seen for years as a Robin
Hood figure who bought
Thanksgiving turkeys for fellow residents of working-class
South Boston and kept hard
drugs out of the neighborhood. But that image was shattered when authorities started
digging up bodies.
Judge: SeaWorld trying to
comply with safety goals
BY MIKE SCHNEIDER
ORLANDO — SeaWorld
Orlando has made a good
faith effort to comply with
new workplace safety goals
following the death of a trainer who was drowned by a killer whale in 2010, a judge said
in an order obtained by The
Associated Press on Monday.
SeaWorld met a deadline
to have new safety procedures in place that were
recommended by the federal Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, said
the order written last week by
Judge Ken Welsch, an administrative law judge.
Those measures include
allowing trainers to only work
with killer whales if there’s
a physical barrier between
them and creating a minimal
distance between trainer and
whale.
SeaWorld officials had
asked for an extension so
they could consult outside
experts, but the request was
denied by federal workplace
safety officials.
Trainer Dawn Brancheau
was killed in February 2010
when the six-ton killer whale,
Tilikum, grabbed her and
pulled into the water.
Separately, in another
order written last week,
Welsch said that SeaWorld
couldn’t keep its new safety
protocols a secret. SeaWorld
officials had asked that the
protocols on working with
killer whales be kept sealed,
saying they were proprietary
business records.
But Welsch ruled against
them, writing that members of the public who see
SeaWorld’s killer whale
shows will be able to figure them out. The judge said
the protocols would remain
sealed until a review of his
ruling by the Occupational
Safety and Health Review
Commission.
Last year, Welsch ruled that
physical barriers between
trainers and killer whales are
a viable way to prevent hazards to workers at SeaWorld.
He issued the order in
response to Sea World
Orlando’s appeal of two citations issued by OSHA for the
death of Brancheau. He also
reduced OSHA’s fine against
SeaWorld Orlando to $12,000
from $75,000 and changed a
“willful” citation to “serious.”
SeaWorld has appealed
last year’s ruling to a federal appellate court in
Washington, D.C. SeaWorld
and federal work-safety officials are engaged in courtordered mediation as part of
SeaWorld’s appeal.

Miami Marlins pitcher Tom Koehler throws
to a batter in the first inning of a baseball
game against the Kansas City Royals at
Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. last
night. The Royaals were leading 0-2 at the
top of the fifth inning.
New-look Ravens defense
coming along nicely
OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Baltimore Ravens
defensive coordinator Dean Pees likes what
he’s seen thus far from a unit that has seven
different starters from the team that won the
Super Bowl last February.
Six of the top eight tacklers in last season’s
playoffs are gone. The list includes Ray Lewis,
Ed Reed, Bernard Pollard, Cary Williams and
Paul Kruger.
Pees believes the new-look defense will
excel after it corrects some of the problems
that often occur at this stage of training camp,
most notably communication among the players in game situations.
Pees says that, and too many penalties, were
the defense’s most notable flaws in last week’s
44-16 preseason win over Tampa Bay.
He said Monday, “I like the way we’re working, but we’ve got a long way to go.”
Rays claim LHP Wesley
Wright from Houston
ST. PETERSBURG — The Tampa Bay Rays
have bolstered their bullpen, claiming durable
lefty Wesley Wright off waivers from the Houston
Astros.
The Rays made the move Monday. Tampa
Bay is in the thick of the races for the AL East
and the wild-card spots.
Wright is expected to join the Rays for
Tuesday night’s home game against Seattle.
The 28-year-old Wright is 0-4 with a 3.92
ERA and leads AL relievers with 54 appearances. He has struck out 40 in 41 1-3 innings
with 16 walks.
Wright pitched in 77 games last year. He
has spent six seasons in the majors, all with
Houston, and was the longest-tenured player
on the last-place Astros.
Florida’s Garcia, Thurman
cleared to practice
GAINESVILLE, — Banged-up Florida is getting
a little healthier on offense.
Offensive linemen Max Garcia (back) and
Trip Thurman (shoulder) were cleared to practice Monday, giving the Gators a couple big
bodies back for fall practice.
Guard Jon Halapio, who has a partially torn
pectoral muscle, is still out at least another
week. And running back Matt Jones remains
sidelined while recovering from a viral infection.
Coach Will Muschamp says team doctors “just
gotta be careful with his condition there.”
Fullback Hunter Joyer pulled a hamstring in
practice Sunday and will be out at least 10
days. And safety Jaylen Watkins (sprained foot)
won’t practice this week.
The Gators opened fall practice without
four offensive starters. Halapio and Jones are
still, but Jones is the only one without a return
timetable.
BY J.W. COOKE
Citizen Staff Writer
Q: No winter sport for you? What do you mean
you hopefully will make it to track?
A: I’m usually injured by then, so hopefully
I can make it there. I always get started
and then something always happens.
Q: Which events?
A: I usually do the 400 (meter dash), and
I’ve done pole vaulting, hurdles, high
jump and I just get thrown into some
other stuff too. I definitely like hurdles
and high jump the most and I want to
get back into pole vaulting.
Q: How long have you been playing your other
sports?
A: Basketball I’ve been playing my whole life
and in sixth grade I started on an actual
team. Volleyball I started my freshman
year. I tried it my eighth grade year but
I was really bad, the worst player out
there, but I still tried again in my freshman year and I got a lot better. Now I fell
in love with it and it’s my favorite sport.
Q: Rating all those sports and academics, what’s
most important in your life?
A: Most important is academics, but after
that it’s mainly volleyball. I play on the
beach, practice all the time, go to camps,
watch it on TV, I just love it. The other
two sports I play just for the fun of it
– because I’m really athletic and I can’t
not do something – so I try to spread it
out and play a sport all year round.
Q: What goals do you have next year academically or athletically?
A: Right now our volleyball team is up in
the air, so my goal is just to have a good
season and get a lot of wins. Hopefully,
we can win districts and move on from
there.
Q: What are your summer plans to help you
reach that goal?
A: I started at USF for a one-day skills camp
for volleyball. I’ve also been going to the
gym everyday and have been playing
beach volleyball pretty much every day,
so I learned how to play doubles on the
beach. I also went to the UF volleyball
camp, so my whole summer has been
pretty much volleyball. I shot some hoops
and have been running, but it’s been
a majority of volleyball. I’ve also had
a little camp at Boca Chica Gym and
had about six or seven girls there that I
helped teach to help make the team this
year.

See: http://www.flalottery.com
Q: Any coaches, teachers or family members who
have helped you get to this point?
A: The coaches at the camps have really
taught me the most and I came back killing it. My dad has also pushed me a lot,
other than that I’d say I push myself the
most.
Q: What advice would you give to the next generation of Conchs?
A: Never give up. If you like the sport then go
for it and don’t be shy about it. If you want
help ask anyone and because there are a
bunch of people that are willing to help.
Always keep a good goal ahead of you.
Q: Any place in the world you would like to visit?
A: I really want to go to Hawaii, my dad
used to live there. I’m going to New
Jersey and that’s kind of exciting,
because I’ve never been out of Florida
and explored anywhere.
Q: Do you have any hobbies outside of sports?
A: Spear fishing, I’m big on spearfish, also
fishing and diving and
being on the boat.
Q: Do you have any college interests?
A: I want to go to HCC
(Hillsborough Community
College) in Tampa for a
year or two and transfer
over to a university.
Q: If you get a scholarship to
play college volleyball, will
you take it no matter where
the school is located?
A: I’m mainly looking for a
full ride and usually community colleges will give
you full rides. There is a
school is San Diego looking
at me and they offered me
a scholarship, but I don’t
really want to go that far. I
really would like to stay in
Florida, but if San Diego is
the only school I could get,
I’d probably go for it.
Q: Do you have any career aspirations yet?
A: I want to be a physical
trainer. I want to major
in sports medicine and
I would like to get really
good to where I could
work the NFL games or at
some professional level —
because I’ve had so many
injuries, I could relate to
them in so many ways.
DAVIE — Brian Hartline slipped
behind the secondary to catch a
long pass in practice Sunday, and
when a cluster of young spectators
whooped, he looked their way and
faked tossing the ball to them, then
jogged with it back to the huddle
as the kids groaned in disappointment.
Two weeks into the exhibition season, the Miami Dolphins’
offense is teasing fans. A hint of the
unit’s potential was evident during Friday night’s 27-3 victory at
Jacksonville, but most of the team’s
scheme remains under wraps.
Receiver Mike Wallace is the most
heralded newcomer, but while he
made his exhibition debut against
the Jaguars, quarterback Ryan
Tannehill has yet to look his way
with the ball. Lamar Miller, the likely
starter at running back, carried only
will use only half their scheme during the entire preseason.
“We run our core stuff,” Philbin
said. “In the preseason we’re most
concerned about doing a great job
evaluating, and executing our fundamentals with plays we know we’re
going to run during the year. It’s not
going to be a surprise to people.
We’re not into trickery or deception
right now.”
Or getting the ball into the
hands of their highest-paid player.
Tannehill had a solid performance
against the Jaguars, completing five
of nine passes for 75 yards and a
touchdown, but he never threw to
Wallace — or even looked at him.

Jacksonville than in the exhibition opener against Dallas, but
that’s not saying a lot.
“It was OK. It wasn’t great,”
Philbin said. “We have to do a
better job in pass protection
early in the game. You want
to get your quarterback off to
a good start and comfortable
in the pocket, and that didn’t
happen. When the first play is
a sack, that’s not the way you
want to start a game.”
Even so, the win represented
progress. It was the Dolphins’
first exhibition victory since
2011, and their most lopsided
since 1987.
One sign of improvement on
offense came in short-yardage
situations, a problem area last
year. Jonas Gray, who missed
last season with a knee injury,
scored twice on 1-yard runs.
Gray and rookie Mike Gillislee
are competing for a roster spot
at running back behind Miller
and Daniel Thomas, who are
battling for the starting job.
Pass-catching and blocking
will influence those decisions,
Sherman said.
“We have some pretty good
runners, but to be the complete
back you have to be able to do
all those things,” Sherman said.
“That will be the true test.”
Notes: Defensive tackle
Randy Starks, who has been
sidelined by an undisclosed
injury, missed practice Sunday.
Top draft pick Dion Jordan also
sat out after playing only seven

Canes, Cards change
signing rules for events
BY TIM REYNOLDS
The fallout from the Johnny
Manziel autograph allegations prompted Louisville and
Miami to announce changes to
their signing policies Monday.
At
Miami’s
annual
CanesFest on Saturday, the
Hurricanes will be signing
only school-issued posters
and nothing else. And when
Louisville has its Fan Day on
Sunday, players won’t be permitted to sign anything in
response to what Cardinals
coach Charlie Strong called
“a national problem.”
Both schools said the moves
are being made because of
ongoing concerns about college athletes and autograph
sales, and neither mentioned
Manziel by name. ESPN reported earlier this month that
Manziel, the reigning Heisman
Trophy winner, is being investigated by the NCAA amid allegations that he took money in
exchange for signing memorabilia.
If true, Manziel’s eligibility
and Heisman standing would
both be jeopardized.
“We have monitored the situation closely, and we decided
to protect the eligibility of our
players and operate under the
principle that it not permissible to accept any type of compensation for their autograph
or the sale of memorabilia,”
Strong said in a statement
released through the school.
“I know this will disappoint a
lot of our fans, especially the
young children who look up to
our players, but I strongly feel
this is the best decision for our
football program.”
Other schools, including
South Carolina and Ohio State,
have acknowledged in recent
days that they have looked
into whether some of their star
players — such as Jadeveon
Clowney for the Gamecocks
and the Buckeyes’ Braxton
Miller — broke any NCAA
rules by signing memorabilia
that others are selling on eBay
and in other manners.
Miami’s decision to limit
player signings to posters that
the school will distribute — one
per fan who shows up Saturday
— would figure to at least slow
down anyone who planned to
attend CanesFest solely to get
autographs for resale. Miami
fans have brought items such
as photos, shirts, footballs and
helmets for players to sign at
past events like CanesFest.
“As part of the University
of Miami’s commitment to
NCAA compliance and in light
of recent national news, student-athletes will only sign
the” poster that will be handed
out, the Hurricanes said in a
statement.
Strong said he’s offering
fans something else instead of
autographs: Sunday’s planned
full-pads practice will be open
to spectators.
NFL
Return of Nicks, Joseph
gives lift to Bucs
BY DICK SCANLON
TAMPA — The Tampa Bay
Buccaneers are counting on
the return of guards Carl Nicks
and Davin Joseph to bolster
their offensive line.
Nicks, who was an All-Pro
in 2011, missed the final nine
games of 2012 with a toe injury.
Joseph, a two-time Pro Bowl
selection, missed the entire
season after having surgery
on his left knee.
Although the Bucs are being
cautious this summer, both
players are expected to be
in the lineup for the season
opener against the New York
Jets on Sept. 8.
The 6-foot-5, 349-pound
Nicks, who last played on Oct.
25, might see limited playing time at New England on
Friday night.
“I think I’m going to play
this week,” he said Monday.
“I’ve got to get some live action
on the toe.”
The pain persists on the
underside of his left foot, and
Nicks does not expect it to go
away anytime soon. “I might
have to deal with it my whole
life. So it is what it is, but I have
all the confidence in the world
that I’ll be playing,” he said.
WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. — As
the reigning Sprint Cup champion, Brad Keselowski’s photo
holding the coveted series trophy is on the cover of the media
guide NASCAR hands out at
races. The venues change,
the photo doesn’t, a constant
reminder of a great season.
With four races remaining
until the Chase for the Sprint
Cup title begins, Keselowski is
back in position to defend, and
that has to make both NASCAR
and team owner Roger Penske
awfully happy.
Keselowski finished second
on Sunday to Kyle Busch on
the road course at Watkins
Glen International to move into
eighth place in the points. It was
Keselowski’s best finish of the
season. It could have been better, but he passed up a chance
on the final lap to knock Busch
out of the way and nab a crucial
victory.
“In my mind, points are great
when you’re in the Chase,”
Keselowski said. “Before that, to
me it’s about wins, even if you
don’t end up in the top 20. I’d
rather be a wild card with four
or five wins than be the guy in
the Chase with zero wins.”
The top 10 drivers in the
points standings automatically
qualify for the 10-race Chase,
which begins next month after
Richmond. There also are two
wild cards, which go to the drivers from 11th to 20th in points
who have the most wins. In the
event of a tie in wins, points
decide the spots. Right now,
Kasey Kahne in 12th with two
victories and Ryan Newman
in 14th has one victory. They
would be in if the Chase started
today.
TOM RYDER/The Associated Press
Kyle Busch (18) leads Brad Keselowski (2) during a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at The Glen on
Sunday in Watkins Glen, N.Y. Busch won the race and Keselowski finished second.
Then there’s Newman’s boss,
Tony Stewart, who missed
Sunday’s race with a broken
right leg and is out indefinitely.
He was 11th before Sunday with
one victory but dropped to 17th
after missing the first race of
his Cup career. It’s possible he
could return and make a miraculous comeback, though that’s
not likely.
Keselowski is one of three
winless drivers in the top 10
and the most vulnerable. Clint
Bowyer is firmly entrenched in
second and Dale Earnhardt Jr. is
sixth, nearly a full race in points
(36) ahead of Keselowski.
So, what gives? Why Mr. Nice
Guy?
Remember, this is the driver
who sent Carl Edwards flying at
the Talladega finish line while
traveling nearly 200 mph to
notch his first Sprint Cup victory. Small wonder Edwards’ boss,
Jack Roush, wouldn’t answer a
question about Keselowski two
years ago at The Glen, when the
driver of Penske’s blue No. 2 was
nursing a broken ankle and still
driving at a high level.
And it wasn’t so long ago that
Keselowski bad-mouthed Busch
over the public address system
at Bristol after an altercation.
There was no love lost there.
Then there was last year at
The Glen, when Keselowski
bumped Busch out of the way
on the final lap as they slid
around a track surface coated
with oil from a blown engine.
Busch had what appeared to
be a victory snatched away, and
though he recovered quickly to
finish seventh, in the end that
race cost him a berth in the
Chase. He was beaten for the
last spot by Jeff Gordon in the
final laps at Richmond.
“It was a really, really sticky situation last year to win here, and
it wasn’t all Brad’s fault. There
was oil on the track,” Busch
said. “But Brad’s the one that
spun us out. I figured maybe
he could do some of the same
again, but he kept it clean.”
Keselowski did pull up tight

Pujols
the Angels
but sidelined
by a foot injury.
Pujols responded with a
vehement denial on Friday
night and said he planned to
take legal action against Clark
and his employers.
Early Saturday, the company
that owns the show hosted by
Clark and Kevin Slaten, insideSTL Enterprises LLC, said
in a statement that Clark “is
no longer associated with the
company,” then later cancelled
the show, costing Slaten his
job, too.
“Any opinions, views or
statements made by him
(Clark) strictly reflect his own
personal views and do not
reflect the views of insideSTL,”
the statement read. “insideSTL Enterprises, LLC and any
related companies have never
asserted and do not assert that
Albert Pujols has ever used steroids or any other type of performing enhancing drug.”
In his statement on Friday,
Pujols said he planned legal
action to send a message “that
you cannot act in a reckless
manner, like they have, and get
away with it.” As of Monday
no lawsuit had been filed by
Pujols in U.S. District Court in
St. Louis, or in state court in
Missouri.
to the bumper of Busch’s No. 18
Toyota on the final lap and challenged him all the way to the
finish line. There was no bump,
though, which was surprising
considering the stakes.
“I wanted to win the race.
We had a shot at it,” Keselowski
said. “I could have definitely
dumped Kyle and won the race.
I didn’t want to do that. There’s
racing and wrecking. Those are
two different things.
“Everybody defines them
a little differently, and I guess
that’s the code you live your
life by,” said Keselowski, whose
“Bad Brad” moniker seems a
distant memory. “Me? I define
last year as racing and some
people would define that as
wrecking. If I was gonna take
out Kyle, it would have been
wrecking in my mind, and
there’s a distinct difference.
“It doesn’t mean there isn’t
temptation,” Keselowski said.
“But there’s a level of respect
and a code of honor that you
have to have as a man.”
DAVIE — Miami Dolphins
newcomer Mike Wallace says
he wants to lead the NFL in
receiving — and other stuff,
too.
That’s a lofty goal considering Wallace has yet to catch a
pass in the exhibition season.
He missed the Dolphins’ first
game with a groin injury, and
quarterback Ryan Tannehill
never looked his way during their brief time on the
field in Friday’s victory at
Jacksonville.
Wallace, who totaled 32
touchdown catches in four
years at Pittsburgh, was signed
as a free agent in March to
upgrade Miami’s mediocre
passing game.
“I want to lead the league
in everything I possibly can,”
he said Monday. “If you plan
for anything other than that,
you’re settling. I want to be
the best. I’m not out here to be
the second-best or third-best.
I want to be the best player
in the league. There are some
great guys to try and catch,
so I have a big-time challenge
ahead of me, but I’m up for it.
That’s why I’m here.”
Even though he has yet to
catch a pass in a game for the
Dolphins, he said he’s meshing well with Tannehill.
“Ryan and I are feeling good
about each other,” Wallace
said. “You’re not going to see
too much frustration out of
me. I feel like I’m doing a
great job of working on getting to my spots and learning
the offense. As long as I know
where I’m going and can play
fast, I’ll be fine.”
Last week Wallace said he’s
the fastest player in the NFL,
and he looked the part when
Tannehill hit him deep for
a touchdown during sevenon-seven drills in practice
Monday.
“When you have a guy with
that type of speed, it is exciting to throw the ball downfield,” Tannehill said.

PLAY TOO
QUICKLY AND GO
DOWN SLOWLY
By Phillip Alder
To what was this comment referring? “The Chip
also reduces the damage
done by bandits. They still
steal drinks and cheers
along the course, but no
longer scramble the paying
runners’ results. No entry
fee, no Chip, no time or
place.”
For a bridge declarer, it
can be a case of no entry
card, no contract success -as in this deal.
How should South plan
the play in three no-trump
after West leads the heart
four and East puts up his 10?
With all of those aces and
kings, that South hand is
worth a two-club opening
bid even if your range for a
two-no-trump opening is a
good 20 to 22.
South starts with six top
tricks: two spades, two
hearts (given the lead) and
two diamonds. He can
establish at least three club
tricks, but if the defender
with the ace can hold up that
card until the third round of
the suit, declarer will need
a dummy entry. This can be
only the heart queen.
First, this requires West’s
having the heart king. That
is highly likely because without the king, West would
have probably led the nine
from a holding like 9-8-7-42. Second, South must win
the first trick with his ace,
not with his jack. Then, after
driving out the club ace and
winning East’s shift, declarer can lead a heart toward
dummy’s queen to generate
that vital entry.
The opening observation
was made by Joe Henderson
about the Boston marathon.
To stop nonentries suddenly
seeming to be doing well,
each runner has a microchip
in his laces. This also gives
everyone an accurate startline-to-finish-line time.

and in the early morning because I
work graveyard shifts, and it seems to
happen almost every day when I go to
work or come home.
I guess it could be coincidental.
But a friend suggested years ago
that it’s my parents letting
me know they’re watching
over me. I want to believe, yet
I feel skeptical at the same
time. Have you ever heard of
anything like it? -- LIGHTS OUT
IN FEDERAL WAY, WASH.
DEAR LIGHTS OUT: The only
time I have heard of anything
like what you’re experiencing
has been when I happened to
change channels and come
upon a television show about the
paranormal. More important than
what I believe is what you choose to
believe. If the reassurance that your
parents are watching over you brings
you comfort, then I am all for it.
DEAR ABBY: This idea may
appeal to the parents of young
children: Celebrate “half-birthdays.”
(The concept is derived from the
“Half-Birthday Song” in “Alice in
Wonderland.”)
A year to a young child is a long
time. In addition to recognizing the
joy that he/she was born, it’s a start to
learning the structure of our calendar.
It doesn’t have to involve a big party or
gifts, just a special activity day with a
parent. Our family has observed halfbirthdays for 45 years and have found
it to be a worthwhile tradition. -- FUN
MOM
DEAR FUN MOM: The title of the
song you mentioned is actually “The
UNbirthday Song,” but I’m in favor
of anything that will bring parents
and children closer. If the household
is headed by a single working parent,
then I’ll bet a grandparent would be
delighted for the chance to celebrate
that special occasion.

440 UNFURN. HOUSES
LOWER KEYS
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I
have two wonderful sons who joined
our family through adoption. While
we don’t broadcast that they are
adopted, it sometimes comes up in
conversation. When it does, people
inevitably ask, “What happened
to their ‘real’ parents?” or, “Why
were they given up?”
I know folks are curious, but
these comments are hurtful.
The details of my sons’ lives are
private, to be shared as they
grow in age-appropriate ways.
They know they are adopted,
but are too young to know the
details surrounding their lives
prior to joining our family.
I do not want to have an in-depth
conversation with every person who
asks a nosy question. These questions
always seem to come up when the kids
are around and I feel unprepared to
answer them.
Do you have any suggestions for
a witty and confident response that
can shut down these questions? I don’t
want my boys to be ashamed that
they were adopted, but I also don’t
want the details out there for public
consumption. -- ADOPTED MOM IN
INDY
DEAR ADOPTED MOM: That
someone would be so insensitive as
to pose those questions in front of
the children is disconcerting. While I
can’t think of a “witty” response that
would deter the questioner, I can think
of one that would be effective. Look
the person in the eye, smile and say,
“Oh, that’s a long story, but look at
what beautiful sons I have. I feel truly
blessed.”
DEAR ABBY: My parents died
when I was a teenager. In the years
since I have noticed strange things.
While I don’t find pennies, I do often
see streetlights turn off right before I
drive under them. I drive a lot at night
