Now, with Monroe County Commissioner George Neugent floating the idea for a casino at Florida Keys Marathon Airport to raise money for sewer construction as well as create jobs, Van Lindt and his two partners could have a new opening.

The owner of the only pari-mutuel gambling permit in the Florida Keys told the Keynoter he’s very interested in putting it to use. New Rochelle, N.Y., resident John Van Lindt bought the greyhound racing permit in 1991, shortly after state officials shut down the Key West Kennel Club on Stock Island because of abusive conditions.

Van Lindt is enthusiastic about the idea. “Gambling is going on all around us. If it’s going on, let’s make it convenient so the county and cities can make money off it,” Van Lindt said. Neugent said he’s looking

for official public support from the Marathon City Council before bringing the idea before the County Commission. “I think it’s really foolish to move forward if they can’t at least give the support of going out for a referendum vote,” said Neugent, who’s seeking a countywide nonbinding referendum to see where the residents lie. “If

My biggest thing is before it goes too far, I’d like to know if we can support it. Do we have enough hotel rooms and vacation rentals in Marathon

Councilman Mike Cinque said he would support a voter referendum on gaming in the Keys but wants city and county officials to discuss the idea in a joint meeting. “Maybe have a sit-down and if we think there’s enough interest, put it on the ballot.

Anglers lean toward shark harvest ban FWC considers adding tigers and hammerheads By KEVIN WADLOW Senior Staff Writer [email protected]

Save the sharks, Florida residents said at a series of statewide workshops on protecting species of tiger and hammerhead sharks. “The whole ‘Jaws’ mentality about sharks definitely seems to be a thing of the past,” said biologist Aaron Podey of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The FWC held six sessions — including a June 22 meeting in Key West — to take comments on adding tiger sharks and great hammerheads, smooth hammerheads and scalloped hammerheads to the list of sharks

prohibited to harvest in Florida state waters. About 22 shark species already are on the list, with lemon sharks added last year. The overwhelming majority of the speakers at all six sessions support adding the latest sharks to the list of the protected, Podey said. “There seems to be a general change in how people think about sharks,” Podey said, “at least judging by the people who turned out at the workshops.” The meetings drew a total of fewer than 120 people, he noted, but said written comments received by the FWC also heavily favor protecting the big sharks from harvest. “There is no good reason to kill a big hammerhead or tiger shark,” Marathon charter captain Buddy LaPointe told the Keynoter. ●

Two weather stations in Key West reported about a quarter-inch to a just under a half-inch of rain by Friday morning. “Most of the wave has moved on to Central Florida but we could still get some rain over the weekend,” Parke said, noting forecasts of about 30 percent change of rain over today and Sunday. Even with the rainfall — Miami Beach reported 2.55 inches — South Florida still has a long way to go to erase the effects of an abnormally dry spell, weather experts say.

Incumbents on the ballot Cinque, Keating gather enough voter petitions By RYAN McCARTHY [email protected]

Marathon city councilmen Mike Cinque and Richard Keating might not be spending much time on the campaign trail this year. The incumbent council members were the only candidates to submit the necessary 60 petitions to the Monroe County Supervisor of Elections Office by Tuesday’s deadline to get on the November ballot. If anyone plans to jump in the race before the Aug. 9 candidate qualifying dead-

line, it’ll mean paying a $720 filing fee. Official qualifying runs from noon on Aug. 2 until noon Aug. 9. Cinque said he hasn’t heard of anyone planning to enter the race for the two open council seats and admits petition gathering is “the frugal thing to do.” “I would have thought if anyone was planning on running, they would have done it that way,” he said. But Cinque also said he’s not counting on there not being an election, but said he hopes residents are happy with the city’s progress since incorporating in 1999. “We have a really good council and I think the city is doing OK.

Key West man wins $1 million lottery

Traffic stop leads to big pot arrest

Louis Paez, 45, of Key West on Friday claimed a $1 million prize in the Color the Money scratch-off game at Florida Lottery headquarters in Tallahassee. Paez chose a $700,000 one-time, lump-sum payment option for his winnings. He purchased his winning ticket at Fausto’s Food Palace, 1105 White St. in Key West. The $10 scratch-off game launched on March 8 (it’s still ongoing) and includes more than $37 million in total prizes. The overall odds of winning something are one in 3.38.

Romero, a constant presence at Key West City Commission and Monroe County School Board meetings, said she’s ready to assume a leadership role in local government. “I felt I could be more contributory to the government and the community by not just having three minutes at the podium but by actually sitting at the dais and being a part of the discussion and part of the vote,” she said in declaring her candidacy.

Come Sunday, it’s cheers at breakfast By SEAN KINNEY [email protected]

Come Sunday morning, customers looking for a seat at the Blue Heaven restaurant in Key West can get a little relief from the tedium of waiting in line. “Blue Heaven will start serving bloody Marys on Sunday morning,” owner Richard Hatch said Friday. “It’ll help with the wait.” Blue Heaven and every other restaurant and convenience and grocery store in the Southernmost City can now sell booze starting at 7 a.m. Sundays, instead of the previous noon, now that the City Commission has codified a change to city law allowing such sales. The other six days of the week, restaurateurs were already allowed to serve from 7 a.m. to 4 a.m. The amended law brings Sundays in line with the

other six days of the week, and in line with unincorporated Monroe County. The change came Tuesday, when four members of the City Commission voted to allow the earlier hours. Commissioners Jimmy Weekley and Mark Rossi recused themselves because they own businesses that sell alcohol. Mayor Craig Cates, the ordinance sponsor, was out of town when the vote was taken. Cates, on a month-long boating trip in the Bahamas, had requested the vote be postponed until he returns in August, but his fellow commissioners didn’t see the need. “I was surprised to hear they voted on it when I asked them to wait,” Cates told the Keynoter via e-mail, “but they must have been confident it would pass. I don’t think there was any opposition.”

Commissioner Barry Gibson moved for approval, saying, “I don’t think the mayor will be upset; that’s one less thing we’ll have to deal with.” Commissioner Billy Wardlow seconded it, and the vote passed. Blue Heaven, like other Key West restaurants, is known for its robust weekend breakfast business. Hatch said he sees no down side from allowing earlier Sunday sales. Of the previous law, he said, “We definitely got some questions” from visitors assuming they could drink with their Sunday breakfast. “Frequently there’s an initial surprise but people seem to understand.” Cates and his wife Cheryl are in the Warderick Wells, part of the Exuma Cays; he said they’ve traveled around 425 miles since leaving Key West at the beginning of the month.

During the stop, Herrin says, Whiteman smelled pot coming from the car, then saw a pot pipe and marijuana cigar in the ash tray, along with a prescription bottle containing 800-milligram tablets of Ibuprofen; the prescription wasn’t in Gonzalez’ name. The deputies searched the car and found the 6.25 ounces of marijuana in the trunk.

Key West residents have their first opportunity next week to hear from experts and offer their input on potentially widening the shipping channel into Key West Harbor, allowing for larger cruise ships to visit the Southernmost City. In November, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released what’s called a

reconnaissance study that deemed the widening economically viable and set the price tag at $35 million. City Manager Jim Scholl told the Keynoter the next step is to get the pulse of the residents and decide whether to move forward on a feasibility study to determine the necessary permitting process and analyze potential environmental and economic impacts. On Wednesday, technical experts from the Army Corps, staff from the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and the Key West City Commission will sit down at a workshop to hear details of the project, solicit resident input and discuss their options. That’s scheduled to start at 6 p.m. in Old City Hall on Greene Street. “It’s just a presentation and discussion,” Scholl said. “The commission will hear about all the aspects of the

channel-widening project and what the true impact of that proposal will be for Key West being a port of call for the cruise-ship industry. And really whether or not the commission will want to support the next step.” Scholl said a feasibility study would cost about $5.5 million, half of which has to come through a four-year federal appropriation and the other half, $2.75 million, from non-federal dollars. “That could be state dollars, cruise-industry dollars, the city government, whatever. We would work with the state of Florida and the Florida Ports Council, the cruise-ship industry and any of the other potential beneficiaries to say, ‘Hey, we need to have funding appropriated that’ll support this study.’” For more on this story, go to www.KeysNet.com.

Zip-line cost firming up

Ten holding up power question

Construction could start in November By RYAN McCARTHY [email protected]

Crane Point Hammock Executive Director Audrey Moir says she’ll unveil expanded plans for a zip-line course at the nonprofit nature center at Tuesday’s Marathon City Council meeting. Once estimated at between $200,000 to $1.5 million to build, Moir said she expects the project to cost “a little over $1 million between hard and soft costs.” That includes building the

course as well as permitting, legal fees, accounting and other professional services. Zip lines are basically cables strung from platform to platform. Riders attached to them move to each platform through a pulley system. Courses are popular in the Caribbean, Hawaii and other tourist destinations around the globe. “It’s going to be just awesome. We hoped it would be up and running some time in December, but we’re still looking at the latter part of the first quarter of 2012,” Moir said. Moir said the project has been in the works for two years and will be a financial boon to the struggling nonprofit and an asset to the

community as a whole. “It’s a struggle. Memberships, donations and events just don’t cover the cost at Crane Point. It’s going to keep Crane Point solid and generate money so they can do other things,” she said, pointing to expanded education programs, maintenance and building dorms for student groups as possibilities. Moir said she’s planning for construction on the course to begin by November and it’s estimated Crane Point will need between 22 and 29 full-time employees to work the course and gift shop, and take photographs. She said the course is still planned to have six to eight

zip lines and three or four bridges built using existing utility poles in the hammock. No lines would be fixed to trees and platforms would include educational information about plant and animal species at the hammock. Moir said expanded plans include incorporating the historic Adderley, Cracker and Crane houses on the 64acre property. “We’re going to introduce more educational aspects. We want it to be an educational, thing as well,” she said. The City Council meeting is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Marathon Government Center.

FWC: Most support extended harvest ban From Sharks, 1A “It sickens me and many other professional guides to see a big shark brought in and hung up for photos, just to be unceremoniously dragged out and dumped at sea,” LaPointe said. “Today’s catch-andrelease ethic among professional fishermen just has no place for killing big sharks just for a photo.” It has not always been this way, LaPointe acknowledged. “I did my share of shark killing back in the 1970s, during the ‘Jaws’ craze,” he said. “It was easier to get booked for the following day if you hung a shark up behind your boat,” LaPointe said. “We shouldn’t have been killing [sailfish or sharks] back then, but that was the norm for much of the charterfishing industry at that time.” Among the 70 people who attended the Dania workshop, high-school student Sara Brenes presented a 150-signature petition from the Shark Whisperer organization she founded to support the harvest ban on tiger sharks and hammerheads. Members of the Shark Saver organization pointed to rapid declines in populations of the slow-breeding big sharks, and noted that several studies indicate overfishing of big sharks appears to be affect-

the third-driest start to the year, reported meteorologist Ben Nelson of the National Weather Service. As of Wednesday, Key West had seen 5.1 inches of rain, more than 11 inches below normal. The driest start to the year in Key West occurred in 1927, when just 2.7 inches of rain fall during the first six months.

Two make ballot From Election, 1A to keep [taxes] down and we’ll see what happens with the election,” he said. Cinque, seeking his third term, gave City Manager Roger Hernstadt a portion of the credit for the city’s good standing. “I’m real happy with Roger. He caught onto small-town politics real quick. He knows his way around contracts,” he said. Hernstadt received high marks last month from the council in his second review since being hired in January 2010 from a Miami-Dade County management job. He’s entering the second year of a threeyear agreement. Keating, who’s completing his first term on the dais, said he was surprised no one else has entered the race so far. In Marathon, voting is at large, meaning the top two vote-getters this time around are elected. “I thought there were some people interested and they may still go,” he said. Keating agreed with Cinque that the city is in a good place, but said there’s “work left to do.” “I think we’re doing a lot of things right, but I’m not satisfied where we are

Chief Assistant County Attorney Bob Shillinger filed for a declaratory judgment from Audlin on April 1 — basically, asking him what the county’s obligation is — naming the utility and the island’s 66 property owners. There are 43 homes on No Name. Shillinger told the Keynoter that 56 of the 66 owners responded to county notices asking their thoughts about the suit. Ten have yet to respond. He said those owners will be formally served by the Sheriff’s Office before the case moves forward. Keys Energy responded to the county’s filing on April 7, basically stipulating all the facts but also contending it doesn’t need permits. “We’re waiting as everyone else is to see what happens. The ball is out of our court and it’s in the legal system’s hands,” utility spokesman Julio Barroso said.

yet,” he said. Cinque’s issues during a third term would be seeing the city’s central sewer system finished, acquiring Boot Key as an eco-park and beautifying the U.S. 1 corridor. Keating has said he wants to see the city complete sewers and a new fire station on Grassy Key, and have the city take more measures to help businesses in the struggling economy. Cinque led all candidates with 862 votes in 2009, while Keating came in second at 788. Don Vasil, John Bartus, “Bicycle” Joannie Nelson and Kevin Kenney rounded out the field.

“Beneficial rains are expected throughout the island chain during the next few days,” Nelson reported Wednesday. “An extended dry period similar to what occurred in June appears unlikely at this time.” South Florida conditions are expected to shift to a more regular summer rainfall

pattern after the tropical wave moves. Average depth in Lake Okeechobee, South Florida’s emergency water reservoir, has risen in recent days to 9.85 feet, but that remains more than 3 feet below normal for July, the South Florida Water Management District reported.

Pari-mutuels on table From Gambling, 1A should lead on a county initiative,” he said. Pari-mutuel wagering is the easiest way to bring gambling to the Keys. In Florida, pari-mutuel betting parlors can have horse racing, greyhound racing, jai alai and poker games. Slot machines at parimutuels are authorized in Broward and Miami-Dade counties, which required a voter referendum. “What our plans were and are would be to try to operate an [off-track betting operation] along with a card room operation in the Keys in

some location,” Van Lindt said. “Current law mandates you’re supposed to stay within 30 miles [of where the permit is held], but there have been a number of exceptions made over the years as long as you stay in the county.” Marathon is more than 30 miles from Stock Island. Van Lindt said the price of real estate and a lack of return on investment mean live racing is “not going to happen anywhere in the Keys.” He said his would be a small-scale operation “that would have some economic benefit to whatever community we go into.”

Postal Service past its prime

Lessons from Anthony case?

The losses continue to mount as e-mail, Facebook, Twitter thrive Unless Congress acts quickly, the U.S. Postal Service could go the way of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. It may need a massive federal bailout that the taxpayers neither want nor can afford. That’s what several members of Congress, all sponsoring postal reform bills, are saying. And they have a point. The service ran a deficit of more than $8 billion last year, and this year is expected to be no better. It cannot keep running huge deficits for long without either getting a big infusion of federal money or going out of business. The service’s problem is that it uses an archaic technology that some day no longer will be needed. The figures speak for themselves: In 2000, 80 percent of household bills were paid by traditional mail. But the number paying electronically has quadrupled since then. Some day, sooner than some may think, only a few people will use the mail for paying their bills. And of course, most people already use e-mail — or Facebook or Twitter — for personal correspondence. It’s free, and the message gets there immediately. Friends can correspond back and forth several times in the time that it takes for a single piece of traditional mail to arrive at its destination. Why not privatize the Postal Service? Sell it. Give it away. If necessary, pay somebody to take it. A truly private board could make decisions based on efficiency without interference from politicians who pander for votes in a way that runs up the service’s deficits. They might keep the service solvent until sometime in the future when it really no longer is needed.

We all think she did, feel in our gut that she did, could swear on our lives that Casey Anthony killed her little 2-year-old daughter Caylee. It’s the same feeling we have about O.J. Simpson slashing his wife’s throat along with her suitor’s. But with our compromised jury selection procedure these days, whose original intent was to assure the defendant would be tried before a jury of his or her peers, we’ve now got a jurisprudence system where juries are not culled from the membership of Mensa but rather are purposely chosen and hence composed of the most stupid, gullible, bleeding hearts on the face of this Earth. Peers? Forget it. That defense attorney wants jurors who will acquit. That said, this will not be the final high-profile case to end in acquittal in our country. But if the purpose of our incarceration program is not only to protect the public from repeated crime by said criminal but also to rehabilitate that criminal so that upon release from incarceration he or she will never want to commit the same or similar crime again, then we have fairly accomplished this goal with Casey Anthony and many, many others.

I know there are people who believe that Casey and O.J. and others like them will be punished in the afterlife — by God, by Lucifer, whatever. That’s all a matter of faith, which I don’t particularly share. But if that helps people deal with the injustices within our system of jurisprudence, so be it. Reminds me of that Joran van der Sloot, the kid in Aruba who was suspected in the Natalee Holloway disappearance. He was never found guilty, there was an absence of evidence, no direct witnesses, no burning candle, no smoking gun. But he was followed and noted, and now is rotting in a Peruvian prison for the alleged murder of Stephany Flores Ramirez. Casey Anthony, were she halfway intelligent, will lead an exemplary life from this point. But even then, she will never lose her notoriety, people taking photos of her with their cell phones, people making crying-baby noises, people asking her how she did it, or even heckling her by walking behind her on the street or in a supermarket saying in a baby’s voice, “No mommy, no. Please don’t use the duct tape.” Heck, she may commit suicide before

Letters to the Editor

In regard to the proposed casino at Florida Keys Marathon Airport, I have a few questions I would like answered before I vote yea or nay on this: ● Who would run this casino? ● Who would build this casino? ● How much would the land be rented for? ● Would there be increases in the rent? If so, how much would the rent increases be? And how often would the rent be raised? ● What percentage of the income of the casino would be paid to the county? And would that be gross or net income? ● Who would pay to build this casino? ● How large would this casino be? ● Would a hotel be part of the casino? If so, how many rooms? And what percentage of the rent of these rooms would go to the county? Or would these be condos? In other words, I am not going to vote for another sweetheart deal. Archie Miller Key West

Then-Gov. Bob Graham works road construction on Feb. 6, 1981, on the Boca Chica Bridge leading into Key West. One of the hallmarks of Graham’s political career, from state legislator to governor and then U.S. senator, was spending full eight-hour work days in a ‘regular’ job to connect with the constituents (it started out as a campaign tactic). His first work day was as a teacher in Miami-Dade County in 1974. His last one — his 405th — was as an instructor at the University of Miami in 2004. In the Keys, he also worked as a cosmetics manufacturer, park ranger, lobsterman, dive-boat operator, marine scientist, Coast Guardsman and intelligence officer.

CELEBRATING OUR PAST

— Florida Times-Union

At a time when the South Florida Water Management District — the lead agency in Everglades restoration — has had its budget stripped by $30 million and employees laid off, some good news for the River of Grass from Washington, D.C. As stated in a news story below this editorial, the U.S. House committee that overseas the Department of the Interior has given initial approval to fund 5.5 miles of bridges on the Tamiami Trail, which would get rid of the pavement now there and open up the natural water flow. It’s early in the process to get the money — some $300 million — but just the fact that both Republicans and Democrats on that panel agree Everglades restoration is a priority shows that, despite the state cuts, the will is there on the national level to restore this wonderful wilderness to how nature intended it.

School District is inept I am writing because I can no longer take or accept the Monroe County School District administration’s incompetence. The School Board is trying to justify its management team’s ineptness and ineffectiveness by first going after the cafeteria workers and now custodians and maintenance workers as their scapegoat rather than facing the real problem and eliminating their waste by firing those responsible for costing taxpayers $550,000 in teacher payouts. Why does the board not ask those responsible for their misinterpretation of the teacher contracts to pony up the money? It’s always easier to attack the lowerpaid employees rather than be leaders and have backbones. Luckily, former

What a great Fourth After living in Marathon for going on 13 years, I finally had a Fourth of July off to enjoy the festivities at Sombrero Beach. What wonderful job everyone involved did to make it so special. Richie Moretti’s turtle rescue was great, as was everything else. I went twice, once in the morning to see the parade and wave the flag I’m so proud to live under, and back again to see the fireworks. In the morning, I drove and

was lucky enough to have a friend nearby at whose house I could park to walk down. At night, before the fireworks (which were awesome), I chose to call Dave’s Taxi so as not to deal with traffic and parking. They picked me up on both sides of the trip and took very good care of me. On my walk back to meet my taxi, I tried to help a couple of people get out of their parking spaces, with their kids mostly. Most people were very gracious (it could be them stuck there with no one to help), as the line of traffic, timewise, would not change by one extra car. Thank you, Marathon, and the powers that be. It was a fabulous Fourth of July celebration, and one I would be mostly proud to share with anyone. Deloris Lorenzo Marathon

EVERGLADES RESTORATION

GOODY! GOODY GOING HOME

Key hurdle is passed for Tamiami Trail work Bridges plan passes major House panel By KEVIN WADLOW Senior Staff Writer [email protected]

Amid a sea of gloomy economic news, a congressional budget panel this week backed a major environmental project seen as critical to Florida Bay. A step toward authorizing construction of 5.5 miles of additional bridges for the Tamiami Trail to increase Everglades water flow was approved Thursday by the U.S. House of Representatives’ subcommittee on appropriations for the U.S.

Department of the Interior. “This is some of the best news we’ve heard on Everglades restoration in months,” said Kirk Fordham, chief executive of the Everglades Foundation. The vote does not appropriate spending for the additional bridges on U.S. 41 — estimated to cost more than $300 million — but essentially acknowledges that the project should remain in the funding pipeline because of its environmental benefits. “It’s a big first step in a process that could take a couple years,” Fordham said. “But it is a big deal to get a project of this magnitude authorized in the current economic environment.

“It shows a that the Obama administration and a Republican-controlled branch of Congress still consider Everglades restoration a top priority,” he said. A one-mile bridge to begin restoring freshwater flow to Everglades National Park and Florida Bay started in December 2009, and is expected to be finished in the spring of 2013. Conservationists generally consider it unlikely that single one-mile span can provide enough water flow to achieve the restoration goals. Everglades National Park and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar have declared the additional 5.5 miles of bridging necessary.

If eventually approved, the additional bridges have the potential to create hundreds of jobs in South Florida, officials noted. “This also would benefit key industries in tourism that literally employ hundreds of thousands of South Floridians,” Fordham said. The road now known as the Tamiami Trail was completed in 1928 to link Miami with Tampa. An unintended effect was that it created a dam that blocks the natural sheet flow of fresh water through the Everglades and into Florida Bay. “The biggest problem in Florida Bay right now is the hypersaline water quality that is dramatically hurting our fisheries,” Fordham said.

Staff with the Turtle Hospital in Marathon plans to release Goody, a loggerhead sea turtle, Sunday at 10 a.m. from Anne’s Beach at mile marker 73 oceanside.Goody was rescued about eight miles south of Tavernier Creek on May 28 when two fishermen found him floating and unable to dive.Turns out he had some kind of infection. Goody will be the seventh sea turtle released by the Turtle Hospital since May 25.

BANKING

5A

SPC# 1534

TIB becoming Capital Systems switch this weekend; new signs later Keynoter Staff TIB Bank completes its conversion to Capital Bank this weekend. In the meantime, customers won’t have access to online banking, online bill pay and telephone banking, according to a booklet distributed to customers and also available on TIB’s website. Periodic ATM and debit card outages are possible, but not planned, the bank says. Full online and telephone banking access should be restored by 8 a.m. Monday, the bank says. Keys residents won’t see a change in signage until later in the month, bank officials say.

The bank’s new name comes from North Carolinabased Capital Bank, one of several recent acquisitions by North American Financial Holdings Inc., which bought a majority stake in Naplesbased TIB Financial last fall. The merger brings together 80 branches and about $5 billion in assets. Also adopting the Capital Bank name and common systems are the former First National Bank of the South in South Carolina and MetroBank and Turnberry Bank in South Florida. North American Financial Holdings was formed in 2009 by a group of banking veterans led by Chief Executive Officer Gene Taylor, a former Bank of America executive. Armed with $900 million in investor cash, NAFH set its sights on building a strong regional bank by snapping up smaller institutions.

Shortly after announcing its intent to invest $175 million in TIB Financial, NAFH formed NAFH National Bank in Miami and struck a deal with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. to buy three failed banks — MetroBank of Dade County, Aventura-based Turnberry Bank and Spartanburg, S.C-based Bank of the South. It then purchased a majority stake in Capital Bank’s parent company and decided to adopt that bank’s name across the company. NAFH is in the process of buying a majority stake in Tennessee-based Green Bankshares. If that deal goes through, it would add 60 branches and about $2.6 billion in assets to Capital Bank. The holding company has also announced plans for an initial public offering, the proceeds of which would go toward more acquisitions.

DEVELOPMENT

Financing key to future of large bayfront parcel Developer plans hotel or RV park in Key Largo By DAVID GOODHUE [email protected]

Construction equipment and vehicles that have occupied the vacant bayfront lot at mile marker 99 for almost two years will soon be gone, replaced by a luxury hotel or an RV campground, the site’s developer said this week. Jim Saunders, a partner in development company Northstar Resort Enterprises Corp., said Northstar has plans to build a 138-unit luxury hotel on the site. The Kimpton Hotel chain would run the resort, Saunders said. He said Northstar is in a 60-day approval period for a $38 million loan to begin construction of the hotel. Saunders said that decision should be made by next month. If that loan is rejected, Saunders said Northstar will build a campground for large recreational vehicles and campers. That plan calls for multiple 30-by-60-foot drive-

through lots. The property has been connected to the Key Largo Wastewater Treatment District’s sewer system, and Saunders said it can serve a hotel or campground. Construction equipment and trucks now on the site belong to companies working on other wastewater projects. That equipment will be gone in the coming weeks, Saunders said. Whichever project gets built, Saunders said it will include a 50,000-square-foot beach and a 16-slip marina. The Kimpton Hotel project has been in the making since 2002, before it fell victim to the recession and housing bust. But Saunders said he and his partners see a changing attitude in banks’ willingness to lend money for large projects. “The hotel financing became unobtainable in 2008 due to the downturn in the economy. This is the first time in three years that lenders are again looking at high-end resort hotel projects,” Saunders said. The developers originally planned a 38-unit resort.

Monroe County approved the plan in 2003. Several groups appealed the approval, but it was affirmed by a judge in November 2004. Northstar then submitted its plan for the 138-unit hotel, based on building rights from 12 former motel units on the site, plus 126 building rights transferred from the former Florida Keys RV Resort at mile marker 106 oceanside. The transfer was contingent on a “workforce housing” project being built on the 11-acre RV site. Construction on that project broke ground this week, Saunders said. Saunders is also a principal of Keys Lake Villas LLC, which is building the $23 million, 110-unit housing project. It will be finished this year or by the beginning of 2012, Saunders said. The project will have duplexes and triplexes with two to three bedrooms per unit. Renters will pay about $1,200 for a two-bedroom, one-bathroom unit, and about $2,200 a month for a threebedroom, two-and-a-half bathroom unit. Saunders said rent may be tied to family size.

Mom rescues daughters from blaze

City expects minor tax increase

Firefighters say Rizzo did all right things By DAVID GOODHUE [email protected]

Firefighters are praising a Tavernier woman for her quick thinking and courage that saved the lives of her young family during a kitchen fire that rapidly went out of control. Teresa Rizzo, 40, and her oldest daughter were cooking dinner late in the afternoon on the Fourth of July in their trailer on Garden Street when smoke and flames began pouring out from behind the kitchen range. “These were not the fireworks I wanted to see,” Rizzo said. She first thought the flames came from grease in the pan in which she was frying hamburgers. But Ike Beal of the Key Largo Volunteer Fire-Rescue Department said the propane tank behind the range ruptured. Beal said what Rizzo did next not only saved the lives of her 13- and 4-year-old daughters, but also saved the trailer from being destroyed and stopped the fire from spreading to her neighbors’ homes in the oceanside neighborhood near mile marker 92. As soon as she saw the flames coming out from

behind the range, Rizzo shut off the ceiling fan in the living room so the fire would be deprived of more air. The kitchen is in the middle of the trailer and her daughters went to the back bedroom to get out of the home. But Rizzo knew there were no stairs leading to that room, so she ran through the kitchen to the back bedroom to grab her girls and bring them out through the front door. She and her daughters were now safe, but a simple act has local firefighters thanking Rizzo: When she left the trailer, she closed the door. “She did exactly what they were supposed to do. They got out, called the fire department and closed the door,” Beal said. The fire destroyed the kitchen and damaged much of the rest of the home, but the structure is still intact, and many of the Rizzo’s possessions, including most of the furniture, were saved. Firefighters from Key Largo, Tavernier and Islamorada responded to the fire and were able to quickly put it out. Rizzo said she feels blessed she and her daughters are safe, but is sad at the state of the home into which she had just moved from Key Largo days before the fire. Rizzo and her daughters will now be staying with her fiance, Johnny DeBrule, in Key Largo.

Staff might have to pay for medical By RYAN McCARTHY [email protected]

The Key Colony Beach City Commission on Thursday decided it needs the same amount of tax dollars next fiscal year as in the current budget to run the city — and that means a tax increase for the homeowners. That’s because overall property values in the city of 800 full-time residents declined around $45 million in the past year, from $561.5 million to $516.7 million. Lower values mean higher tax assessments. The main issues Thursday with Key Colony’s $2.33 million budget were employ-

ee medical coverage and an increase in the cost to operate the city’s reverse osmosis reuse water plant. It produces desalinized water for the city’s parks and nine-hole golf course. Commissioners said they would use the rollback tax rate of 2.2465, or $2.2456 per $1,000 of assessed property value, as a benchmark heading into future budget meetings. The rollback rate produces the same amount of tax dollars as the current year. The current fiscal year’s tax rate is 2.0674. The owner of a $300,000 home on Key Colony paid $620 in property tax this fiscal year, but would pay $674 in the next under the current scenario. The 2.2456 rate will be submitted to the Monroe County Property Appraiser’s Office by or before July 25, as required by law. The com-

mission can lower, but not raise, the proposed tax rate after that date. Commissioners debated at length the city’s 100 percent medical coverage for 11 fulltime employees. The cost is expected to rise between 25 and 43 percent next fiscal year. There’s currently a $2,000 deductible for each employee, paid by the city. Under the current budget, medical benefits cost the city $83,450. Under the proposed spending plan to take effect on Oct. 1, without any adjustment in deductibles, it would be $93,550. “I don’t know of anybody that pays a medical deductible anymore,” Commissioner Jeff Vorick said. Commissioner Mary Schmidt agreed, saying: “I’d like to see the employee cover up to the first $500.” The commission also dis-

cussed raising the city’s deductible to $3,000 per employee to lower premiums. Most employees don’t reach their deductible each year, commissioners said. The commission eventually scheduled a separate workshop to discuss employees’ total compensation packages, including health care, retirement funding, salaries, vacation time and sick leave. It’s scheduled for July 18 at 9:30 a.m. at City Hall. Overall, Key Colony expects to raise $1.13 million in property taxes next fiscal year. Other revenue sources include $196,000 from occupational licenses, $135,690 in state shared revenues and $103,000 from building permits. Expenditures include $525,000 for fire and emergency medical services through the city of Marathon.

City off the hook for ‘Vandy’ Shipyard loses in effort to recoup money By SEAN KINNEY [email protected]

The U.S.S. Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg was scuttled off Key West as an artificial reef in May 2009. Two years later, litigation surrounding the 13-year project is finally coming to an end. On July 1, U.S. District Judge Mark S. Davis released a written opinion ruling that the city of Key West, which owns the 520-foot wreck, does not owe Norfolk, Va.,based Colonna’s Shipyard

money related to work the shipyard did to prepare the former missile tracking ship to take the plunge. “We appreciate the court’s well-reasoned judgment in the city’s favor,” City Attorney Shawn Smith said in a statement, “which avoids any unwarranted expense to the taxpayers. Hopefully the focus can now be solely on the positive benefits of the Vandenberg sinking.” Key West, the state of Florida and the Keys tourism industry spent nearly 10 years raising money to obtain, clean, tow and, finally, sink the Vandenberg about seven miles off Key West. The final cost was more than $8 million. Colonna’s got the contract

to clean the ship, but a legal dispute over failed payments to the shipyard and its subcontractors waged for a year in Norfolk’s federal court, resulting in the ship being sold at public auction to First State Bank of the Florida Keys which, in turn, handed the ship over to the city. Colonna’s received $677,000 from the auction, with subcontractors splitting the rest; that’s when they went after the city to collect more than $1 million in perceived outstanding payments. Smith explained: “The shipyard contracted with Reefmakers to prepare the Vandenberg for sinking. Reefmakers failed to pay

Colonna[‘s] for their services.” That’s when the auction went down. “The shipyard apparently felt it did not receive adequate compensation from the sale and sued the city in February of 2010.... This was despite the fact that the city did not have a contract or agreement directly with the shipyard. The city contracted with Artificial Reefs of the Keys, [which] in turn contracted with Reefmakers.” In his written opinion, Davis noted that Colonna’s was “treated shabbily,” referring to the ordeal as the “Vandenberg saga,” but concluded it “can receive no remedy from Key West.”

Former cop’s robbery plan goes awry By SEAN KINNEY [email protected]

Patti Nickless,

Former Key West cop Jeffrey Meyers, 48, is being held at the Monroe County Detention Center on $405,000 bond, charged with robbing the Overseas Market branch of Keys Federal Credit Union on Tuesday. Meyers’ former colleagues took him in to custody about four hours after the robbery; he was found by off-duty Sgt. Jeffrey Williamson blocks away inside an Internet gaming cafe at 922 Kennedy Drive, a place Williamson knew Meyers frequented. Meyers, charged with the felonies of grand theft and displaying a hoax bomb, got away with $1,888 and had

only $500 on him when arrested, police spokesw o m a n A l y s o n Crean said. Before MEYERS hitting the Internet slots with a vengeance, Meyers pulled a move reminiscent of Harrison Ford’s character from “The Fugitive,” ducking into the bathroom of the Winn-Dixie next to Keys Federal Credit Union to shave off his beard and change clothes. “All those precautions he took,” Crean said, “then he goes into somewhere that is being filmed and has his

change of identity completely wrecked by having himself filmed doing it. It was wellthought-through but he missed some obvious stuff.” Meyers also took another step to distract or delay the police effort to locate him: He left a suspicious package inside Keys Federal prompting police to call in the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office Bomb Squad. The package turned out to be several attached cans of food with the labels stripped off, shoved into a plastic grocery bag. “It didn’t look explosive,” Crean said, “but when you have something that looks odd and somebody robs a bank, you take the ultimate in precaution.”

Meyers started with the Key West Police Department in 1989. In 1994, Crean said, he “was given an opportunity to take a voluntary termination, which is like where they ask for your resignation in the business world,” after he was found to be “involved in double dipping.” Crean said that consisted of working an off-duty uniformed security detail while he was also on the clock for his regular police shift. When working off-duty details, officers cannot work as bar or nightclub bouncers, drive cabs or engage in private detective-type work, Crean said. Details of Meyers’ scheduled court appearance weren’t available Friday.

Attempting to address quality-of-life concerns for Key West residents, city officials stressed the need to create a landscape buffer around Horace O’Bryant Middle School and work to alleviate parking and traffic issues, during a Thursday meeting with their counterparts from the county schools system City commissioners Mark

Rossi and Teri Johnston attended the conflict assessment meeting with Monroe County School District Superintendent Jesus Jara; Fred Sims, the facilities director; and district attorney Scott Black. Since February, the two sides have worked to find a resolution to the problem with the new $36 million — construction on the site, which sits adjacent to a large residential area on Leon Street, reaches a height of 56 feet, more than double the city’s 25-foot limit for that zoning district. Black reiterated his position that the building is not governed by city land development regu-

lations or its comprehensive plan because student capacity at the site would not increase by more than 5 percent, invoking a statute that exempts the construction from municipal laws. “It’s looking very positive like we’re going to be able to meet the 5 percent probably, with a little bit of cushion,” Black said, adding that the final numbers are being vetted by a hired consultant and the state Department of Education. Black also said the district is going forward with a redesign on campus buildings on which construction has not yet started, bringing the roofs in line with the city height cap. Rossi called the need for

landscaping “paramount.” Johnston explained, “What we’re looking for is a sound and visual barrier for buildings that are 12 yards from someone’s back door.” Sims said the site’s stormwater drainage plan presents limitations. Also, there isn’t any money set aside for landscaping. “That’s subject to the budget,” he said. “If we have some money left over, we can put it toward landscaping. But right now we’ve got a real tight construction budget.” Jara said money for landscaping could potentially be allocated in the 2012 budget year.

Upper Keys stop N. Miami Beach Age 10-11 team still alive with the win By KEVIN WADLOW Senior Staff Writer [email protected]

Evin Zekthi shone at the Fort Lauderdale Aquatic Complex, which is shown here during a previous event.

Zekthi takes two at invitational Coral Shores prospect wins pair of races Keynoter Staff Evin Zekthi, an incoming freshman at Coral Shores High School, won two swimming titles at the

recent International Swimming Invitational at the Fort Lauderdale Aquatic Complex. Zekthi, 14, took boys age-group championships in the 200-meter butterfly and the 100 butterfly. The Tavernier resident swam a 1-minute, 2.54-second time in the 100, winning the Age 13-14 event more than a second over the

runner-up. Zekthi narrowly won the Age 13-14 200 fly by less than half-second, scoring a first-place finish with a 2:23.53 time. The secondplace swimmer tapped the wall at 2:23.91. More than 1,000 swimmers from more than a dozen nations competed in different age brackets at the four-day competition held

June 23 to 26, according to event organizers. Zekthi also scored a third-place finish in his group’s 400 freestyle (4:26.6), and a fourth in the 200 individual medley (2:24.9) at the International Invitational. Zekthi plans to compete with Coral Shores’ swim team this fall.

BASEBALL

From Cuban rafter to Pirates’ bullpen coach Rojas arrived in Key West back in 1994 McClatchy-Tribune They fled after dark on a homemade boat from Morro Castle, the 16th Century fortress that guards the entrance to Havana Bay. Euclides Rojas, the best relief pitcher in the proud history of Cuban baseball, saved for a year to buy enough wood for his fisherman friend to build the 15-foot boat. They used a half-dozen empty 55-gallon oil drums — three on each side — to buoy the crude vessel. On Aug. 17, 1994, Rojas, his wife Marta and their 2year-old son, Euclides Jr., along with 10 others jammed into the makeshift craft to begin the 90-mile journey from Cuba to the Florida Keys. “We didn’t know if we were going to make it,” said Rojas, the Pirates’ first-year bullpen coach. “But if we didn’t make it, at least we would have died trying to be free.” The group — five women, four men and four children — spent 4.5 days in the rough waters of the Florida Straits. When the outboard motor broke down a couple of hours into the journey, they paddled the rest of the way. When they ran low on water, they traded rations with refugees on another nearby raft, some ham or cheese and crackers, for clean water to drink.

Finally, a U.S. C o a s t Guard ship plucked them from the water 23 miles south of ROJAS Key West. “I didn’t come to the United States to play baseball,” Rojas said. “We came to the United States looking for freedom.” The decision was easy for Rojas, a then-26-year-old star athlete who grew weary of Fidel Castro’s oppressive rule. Civil liberties were scarce; citizens could not visit another state in Cuba without having the travel plans and length of stay approved by the national government. He feared for his safety after joining the antiCastro party. “That’s how bad it is,” he said. “You are not allowed to express what you feel or what you see. We only had the hope to become free people and escape from slavery.” They left behind their families, including Rojas’ mother, father, three sisters and two brothers. They remain only in their memories and an occasional phone call. “Luckily, my son doesn’t remember,” Rojas, 43, said. “He was 2.5 years old. But it’s been tough for all of us, especially for my wife and for myself. We lost everyone.” Rojas spotted many empty rafts floating in the ocean. He saw a drowned woman’s bloated body being pulled from the water. But their journey wasn’t

over. So close to the Florida shores, Rojas and his family were returned to the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where they joined tens of thousands of Cuban refugees. During their escape, President Clinton reversed the 28-year policy so those on rafts and small boats would be treated as illegal aliens and taken to safe havens outside the United States. The policy change occurred as 30,000 Cubans took to the ocean in August 1994, including 6,000 in a two-day span, after Castro vowed he would not hinder anyone who sought to flee the island. After six months at Guantanamo Bay, the Rojas family was allowed to enter the United States when Major League Baseball pitcher and former Cuban National teammate Rene Arocha agreed to sponsor them. In July 1991, Arocha became the first notable Cuban baseball player to defect. Nearly two decades later, Rojas still gets emotional when he talks about Cuba. There is a soulful look in his eyes as he stands in the dugout at PNC Park on a sunny afternoon. “I usually don’t talk about my story,” he said. “It makes me real sad. I know while we are talking here, there are some other Cuban people in the ocean right now.” The former hard-throwing right-hander is the all-time saves leader for the Cuban National Team (90), but his name has been wiped from the record books because he

defected. After Rojas defected, Cuba’s state-run newspaper printed a large photo of the former baseball hero, calling him a traitor. But it was worth the sacrifice: The Rojases, who live in Miami, became American citizens. Euclides Jr., 19, hopes to become a doctor. “If we had to be 15 more days on the ocean to become free again,” Rojas said, “there is no doubt we are going to do it again.” Rojas is a valuable part of the Pirates pitching staff. Whenever a Pirates reliever struggles — a rare scene this year — they only have to look at the personable coach sitting with them in the bullpen behind the left-center field wall to find motivation. “God bless him,” reliever Jose Veras said. “He’s an unbelievable person.” Rojas, known by all as Euky, never reached the majors after being drafted in the 30th round by the Florida Marlins in 1995. He coached in the Marlins farm system for six years and was the bullpen coach for the 2004 World Series champion Red Sox. He worked as the Latin American field coordinator for the Pirates from 2005-10 before joining manager Clint Hurdle’s staff. Hurdle learned about Rojas’ incredible journey after arriving in Pittsburgh. “I was not aware of his story, and the first time I heard it, we were talking about mental toughness,” Hurdle said. “I just kind of had to drop it after that.”

The Upper Keys Age 10-11 all-stars evened their record in the Little League District 8 Tournament with Tuesday’s 6-4 win over North Miami Beach. The club stood at 1-1 in the four-team competition going into a Friday game at the Doral tournament site (results not available at press time). After a 10-0 loss to Doral in the tournament opener, the Upper Keys “really came together to play well against what looked to be a stronger [North Miami Beach] team,” said manager Jim Rhyne. The 6-4 contest “was up and down the whole way,” Rhyne said. “We were up a run, then down by two. He got the lead back and held

them off in the last inning.” Pitcher Levi Houston got the decision in relief. “We got a good, positive effort from everybody on the roster,” Rhyne said. The Upper Keys Age 10-11 team will play a Monday game in Key Largo against Miami Springs. The rescheduled game was moved to Key Largo because the Keys squad earlier traveled to Doral for a game that had been canceled. Each club in the Age 10-11 bracket is scheduled to play six games, facing each tournament opponent twice.

Keys Minors fall The Upper Keys Age 910 team was eliminated from its District 8 Tournament group with an 8-7 loss to Kendall on Wednesday. A win over Kendall would have boosted the Upper Keys into second place in the district’s South Pool, but the one-run loss ended the Keys run with a 1-3 record.

Andrews fished on the Eva Marie skippered by her husband, Barry. “We were about 18 miles west of Key West in 850 feet of water,” Barry Andrews said. “She’s a seasoned angler, and the fight was about 20 minutes.” Eva Andrews also partnered with Cheryl Cutchin of Forest Hill, Md., to earn the Eva Marie the tournament’s boat championship for the largest

Second place in the individual division went to Pam Oropeza of Key West, who brought in a 32.5-pound dolphin. Oropeza fished on the Spine ‘n’ Line with her husband, Key West chiropractor Steve Oropeza, at the helm. Third place went to Barbara Musser of Leonardtown, Md., who scored a 28.7-pound dolphin while fishing on the Miss Kasey with Capt. Jim Williams. Musser’s catch also helped earn the Miss Kasey runner-up status in the tournament’s boat division. The Conch Republic Ladies Dolphin Championship drew 80 participants.

Artist discovers new ways of counting S. Florida guild lauds Goldman work Key West artist Deborah Goldman still remembers the wonder of sweet potatoes’ pink roots curling inside clear glass vases displayed at The Studios of Key West. The experience in her earliest days there proved “transformative,” she said. A mixed-media artist, she had been working in wood, using cutouts and layering to capture shapes and images that fixed on objects. Watching the pale pink roots and the evolution of a living thing led her down a different artistic path, one she describes as more conceptual. The imagery of new life represented by the roots inspired a series called “Bismarck Seedpod Counting.” Serendipity played a role, Goldman says, as she “stumbled onto these Bismarck seed pods in a trash can down the street.” Describing the beautiful seed shapes, Goldman took them to her studio and began a study of counting that has carried through other formats and forms. “Counting is a basic human impulse. It starts with fingers and toes,” she says, “then I imagine a shepherd trying to keep track of his flock, maybe stacking stones

We can all relate to ‘Horrible Bosses’ Murder, laughs come together with few flaws ‘Horrible Bosses.’ 100 minutes. Rated R. Playing at the Regal Cinema, 3338 N. Roosevelt Blvd., Key West. You’ve probably seen enough previews to know the storyline of “Horrible Bosses” — three friends are tormented by their KEYS bosses and FILM decide the only answer is murder. They are clueless about how to even start so they Craig Wanous hire a shady character to help them come up with a plan. But to paraphrase poet Robert Burns, the best laid plans of mice and men often result in very funny movies. The comedy, playing nationwide, stars Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis, and includes Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell, Kevin Spacey, Julie Bowen and Jamie Foxx. Also briefly appearing are veteran actors Donald Sutherland and Bob Newhart. Director Seth Gordon brings some good cred, having directed episodes of “The Office,” “Community” and “Parks and Recreation,” among other TV shows; and part of the documentary

He makes life miserable for his employees, especially Kurt, whom he hates for being his old man’s favorite. Farrell, sporting one of the world’s great comb-overs, hysterically sets the politically correct movement back 25 years. The three friends decide they know nothing about murder and wisely, or unwisely, go in search of someone more knowledgeable about such things. They find an excon man named Jones (Foxx) who, in an effort to sound more sinister, has changed his first name from Dean to, well, let’s just abbreviate it to MF. And although his background in the lethal arts is questionable, he takes on the role of murder consultant to the three office workers. His

TV hit “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” Not the sharpest pick in the dentist’s tray, Dale tries desperately to evade Harris’ advances while saving his marriage. Aniston really gets into her role as a sexual predator and her character will stop at nothing to get what she wants. It’s obvious that Aniston relished playing against her good-girl image, and the Internet has even been buzzing with rumors of her in a topless scene in the film. But in a recent interview, she quashed those rumors, saying they’re not true. Aniston also denied rumors of a topless scene that might be in the director’s cut DVD release. Sorry, guys. Sudeikis, from “Saturday Night Live,” plays Kurt, whose new boss is the son of the company founder. Farrell is Bobby Pellitt, the heir with

“Freakonomics.” And producers Brett Ratner and Jay Stern have the “Rush Hour” movies behind them. Stern worked more than five years to get “Horrible Bosses” to the big screen. In “Horrible Bosses,” Bateman is stressed out Nick Hendricks, who has suffered years of psychological abuse from his boss, Dave Harken (Spacey). Harken is a slavedriving corporate executive who promises Bateman a promotion — which he has absolutely no intention of ever handing out. Spacey appeared before as a wonderfully sadistic boss in 1994’s “Swimming with Sharks” and he chews up the scenery again in “Horrible Bosses.” Day plays Dale, a dental assistant who is being sexually harassed by his boss Dr. Julia Harris (Aniston).

Spirit of Fisher lives during festival Fisher is to take place in the 200 block of Duval Street with live entertainment, a silent auction, games and more. July 16 brings a Midnight Gambler Texas Hold ’Em Poker Tournament saluting Fisher’s adventurous spirit. The fun is set for 8:30 p.m. to 2 a.m. aboard Sunset Watersports’ Party Cat catamaran. The July 17 schedule features a 1 p.m. presentation of the Mel Fisher Lifetime Achievement Award to Professor David Bederman of Emory Law School. Bederman has been instrumental in the decades-long legal struggle for salvors’ rights to explore and recover maritime heritage from the sea. The presentation takes place in the Mel Fisher Maritime Museum’s courtyard, 200 Greene St. Then at 2 p.m., there’s a reunion of the crew that searched for the Atocha with Fisher. It’s scheduled at the Bull and Whistle, Duval and Caroline streets.

4-day event celebrates life of great salvor The late shipwreck salvor Mel Fisher will be honored July 14 through 17 with a festival that commemorates the 26th anniversary of his discovery of the sunken Spanish galleon Nuestra Senora de Atocha. Fisher and his crew uncovered a $450 million cache of Atocha treasure and artifacts on July 20, 1985, after a 16-year search. The galleon sank in 1622 about 35 miles southwest of Key West. Fisher’s son Kim and grandson Sean, who direct the ongoing search for still-missing Atocha artifacts and treasures, spearhead the Mel Fisher Days festival each year. Scheduled events begin at 6 p.m. July 14 at the Schooner Wharf Bar, 202 William St. in Key West’s Historic Seaport. On tap are games recalling

THEATER

Summer sets the stage for new season Partnership results in 3-week run This summer will not be like its predecessors, theaterwise anyway. Because this year, Key West’s Red Barn Theatre, in association with new Key West theater company TheatreXP and Minerva Productions, is presenting its first summer season, filling a mid-year void lovers of the stage have long wished filled. Dubbed Key West Summer Stage, the season opens on July 12 and runs through July 30, with six plays in three fast-paced weeks featuring a mix of Key West’s most recognizable actors as well as new faces. Each production will run five performances only,

Tuesday through Saturday, with all curtain times at 8 p.m. General admission tickets are $28. Productions will include: G Sam Shepard’s “True West,” running July 12 to 16. G “One Acts with Teeth,” a strong drama, and darkly comedic single-act plays “The Zoo Story” from Edward Albee, A.R. Gurney’s “The Problem,” Rebecca Craft’s “She Lived, He Said” and David Ives’ “The Philadelphia,” running July 19 to 23. G Richard Nelson’s “Madame Melville,” running July 26 to 30. Actor, writer and director Bob Bowersox founded TheatreXP late last year in association with Anne O’Shea’s Minerva Productions. The concept for Bowersox’s company is similar to one that he was familiar

with in Philadelphia. “It’s about putting unused assets together for the benefit of all,” Bowersox said. “Not all good actors in our community get a chance to work in a season because the number of plays that are produced each year at the two great theaters we have in Key West are limited. There are just not enough roles. “And there are periods of time within the season where the theaters, or other functional spaces, are dark for whatever reason. And there is a wealth of great plays out there that we would love to bring to the community. It’s just a matter of pulling all the pieces together.” “With the rise in summer tourism, we think Key West has an audience for a summer theater season,” says Mimi MacDonald, the Red Barn’s managing director.

There will be an openingnight party following each play’s Tuesday night opening, and anyone with a ticket to that night’s performance is invited to stay and enjoy food and bar provided by the Grand Cafe and mingle with the cast and crew. Tickets are available by calling TheatreXP at (302) 540-6102 or going to either www.keywestsummer stage.com or www.theatre xp.org. The Red Barn Theatre is at 319 Duval St.

HEMINGWAY DAYS

Not offended? See this From Film, 5B first and best suggestion is that they kill off each other’s bosses instead of each knocking off his own. Sounds like a good plan, right? The film features a great cast, a sharp script and some gross-out humor that may have you wondering just how

far the envelope can be pushed and still earn a (welldeserved) R rating. Think of “Horrible Bosses” as a cross between “9 to 5” and “Throw Momma From The Train,” but with the foul language and vulgar humor of “The Hangover.” And like that last one, don’t get out of your seat too early. So will the dreadful boss-

Come to Papa (at least his fest)

es meet an untimely end? What exactly is “wet work”? Will anybody go to jail? Who really answers those creepy craigslist personal ads? And does anyone actually eat Popsicles, bananas and hot dogs like that? You’ll have to see the film to find out. As long as you’re not easily offended, I highly recommend it.

Events fill a week for Hemingway

powerful legacy in Key West. His zest for life, literary accomplishments and enduring affection for the island he called home throughout the 1930s are to be commemorated July 19 through 24 during the 31st annual Hemingway Days celebration. Scheduled events include a look-alike contest for stocky white-bearded men

Whether composing novels in his Whitehead Street writing studio or fishing for big game in local waters, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ernest Hemingway left a

resembling Hemingway, readings and book signings by nationally acclaimed authors, an awards ceremony for the literary competition directed by author and Hemingway granddaughter Lorian Hemingway, a commemoration of the 112th anniversary of Ernest’s July 21 birth, a one-man play exploring the literary legend’s life and motivations, a museum exhibit of rare Hemingway memorabilia, a zany running of the bulls and a three-day marlin tournament. During his Key West residence, Ernest Hemingway wrote some of his most enduring works and spent his leisure hours fishing and socializing with local and literary cohorts. Each year, fans of his writing and exuberant lifestyle come together for Hemingway Days. Events run the gamut, from guided tours of his home to a museum exhibit to a 5K race, from an armwrestling contest to special showing of “The Old Man and the Sea” at the Tropic Cinema.
