By Tiffanie Reynolds Staff W riter Poincianas push to become an incorporated municipality finally made its way into legislature. The citizen group Poinciana Incorporates Now Citizens Home Organization (PINCHO) sent a revised feasibility study and proposed city charter to legislators representing both Osceola and Polk counties last Friday. It is the beginning of a long legislative process, with the goal of placing incorporation on the ballot for residents to vote on in November of 2014. Sen. Darren Soto, D-Orlando, whose district includes Poinciana, said that the study and charter will first need a unanimous vote from both Osceola and Polk delegates. If passed, it will go to Local and Federal Affairs Committee in the Florida House for review. It then would move to the House floor for a vote and then to the Florida Senate. If the proposal successfully navigates the legislature, it will go on the ballot for residents to weigh in. I believe that the citizens of Poinciana should get the opportunity to determine their government, whether they have a local government or not in that area, said Soto. Meanwhile, the citizen group drew local support at a conference meeting Tuesday at the Poinciana library, where the main points of the new study and charter were explained to residents. Drawing from the first study and proposed charter written by UCF in 2009, Val Ramos, a member of PINCHO, explained that the revised study only includes Poinciana Villages 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 8 in the boundaries of the municipality, leaving out the communities that didnt want to become incorporated. He also listed some of the benefits residents would have as a city, such as getting back $8 million in sales and utility tax revenue that is currently given to the counties as well as receiving $15.5 million in Association of Poinciana Villages funds. The study also only covers the services that residents are already receiving, leaving additional departments and services needed to the future elected officials, if the residents vote to become incorporated. The charter proposes a detailed mayor-council type government, with elected officials allowed to serve two terms of two years each. It also wants to con tinue with the Association of Poinciana Villages, but Serving Kissimmee, St. Cloud, Poinciana, Harmony, Narcoossee, BVL Lifestyles Editor Peter Covino reviews the The Lone Ranger ...

Boyd Graham and his wife can now pay their medical bills a little more comfortably. The Sgt. Robo Mud Run, held by the St. Cloud Police Department last Saturday, raised $35,000 for the Graham family, which will go toward medical bills due to Boyd Grahams stage four liver cancer as well as other mounting expenses. The mud run was held as a way for the St. Cloud Police Department to support Graham, an officer for 16 years, and his wife as he battled the cancer. Since Graham has been diagnosed, both he and his wife had to leave their jobs in order to keep up with care, and it became harder for them to pay the bills. Before, officers helped out by bringing food or doing work around the house, but they decided to organize the run to raise long-term money Mud Run raises $35,000 for St. Cloud Police seargent with stage 4 liver cancer See Run, page A-6Poinciana residents take next step toward incorporation See Poinciana, page A-5 By Brian McBride Editor A volunteer with a local childrens church program was arrested on Tuesday by the Osceola County Sheriffs Office after arranging to have sex with an 11-year-old girl. Osceola County Sheriffs Office detectives arrested Jonathan Richard Kowalski, 25, of 136 Mediterranean Court, and charged him with traveling to meet a minor, certain computer transmissions prohibited, transmission of material harmful to minors by electronic device and certain uses of computer services or devices prohibited. According to Sheriffs Office reports, Kowalski sent several text messages to the girl, some sexually graphic. The investigation began on June 28, when deputies responded to Living Waters Church at 4101 Pleasant Hill Road in Kissimmee. Upon arrival, deputies spoke with the 11-year old victims mother who said she found inappropriate text messages from Kowalski on her daughters phone. The mother stated they attend Living Waters Church and met Kowalski who volunteered with the childrens program. When she found these text messages she notified the church staff who assisted her in contacting law enforcement, said Sheriffs Office spokeswoman Twis Lizasuain in a press release.

Page A2, Police investigate shooting, suspicious death in Poinciana By Tiffanie Reynolds Staff W riter The Osceola County Sheriffs Department is investigating a shooting and a death termed suspicious in Poinciana early Thursday. A Miami man was shot in what might be a drug-related incident, authorities said. At approximately 4:20 a.m. on Thursday, Osceola County Sheriffs deputies responded to the Walgreens located at 393 Cypress Parkway in Poinciana and spoke with a 48-year-old man who initially indicated he was from Miami and was traveling on West U.S. Highway 192 when he somehow ended up at the intersection of Marigold Avenue and Cypress Parkway in Poinciana. While waiting at the light, the victim decided to ask for directions and began to get out of his car to approach the vehicle next to him when the passenger from that vehicle brandished a handgun and shot him, the Sheriffs Office report stated. The victim suffered minor, non-life threatening injuries to his arm, but as a precaution, he was airlifted to Orlando Regional Medical Center. During the investigation, detectives were unable to locate any evidence a shooting occurred at that intersection, and determined the victims statements were extremely inconsistent. Detectives also located in his vehicle items consistent with a marijuana grow house operation, authorities said. Detectives said the incident appears suspicious and might possibly be drug related. Authorities have no information that this crime is connected to recent shootings in Osceola County. The Sheriffs Office deputies also are investigating a suspicious death in Poinciana. At approximately 1:43 a.m. on Thursday, Osceola County Sheriffs deputies responded to a call at Mendoza Lane in Poinciana. Upon arrival, deputies spoke with the homeowner who said she left her residence at 11 p.m. and when she returned home at approximately 1:30 a.m., she found her 22-year old son, Eric Roopnarine, lying on the floor unresponsive. The victim had no vital signs and was pronounced deceased. There were no signs of forced entry. At this time, detectives are investigating the incident as suspicious, and have not said if it is linked or related to the drug-related incident that also was reported Thursday. Anyone with information on these two incidents is asked to call the Osceola County Sheriffs Office at 407-3482222 or Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS (8477).

Saturday, July 6, 2013 NEWS-GAZETTE, Page A3 By Tiffanie Reynolds Staff W riter Both officers and residents celebrated on June 27 as Lake Tivoli Apartment Community became the first certified crime free multi-housing community in Kissimmee. It is the first community to go through the Crime Free Multi-Housing Program, started by the Kissimmee Police Department in July of 2012. A now international program started in Arizona in 1992, the Crime Free Multi-Housing Program is a two-fold safety program to keep illegal activity off of rental properties. The first part of the program is an eight-hour manager certification course, which informs managers of rental properties how to quickly report crime and how to install better safety measures on their properties. The second part of the program, Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, implements those safety measures, with the installation of 180 degree peepholes in front doors, more lighting around the complex, securing outer doors and windows and lowering the height of shrubbery around the apartment complex. Unfortunately, crime has no address, but there are certain precautions that can be taken to make your property less of a target. So, its our hope that, along with the cooperation with the residents, staff and the police department, we are just able to make our property less of a target and inspire other properties to do so in the area, Kim Weems, leasing supervisor and residential events coordinator for Lake Tivoli, said. They were one of the 12 apartment rental complexes in Kissimmee to attend the first manager certification course last July, working with the police department to establish the changes that needed to be made to make Lake Tivoli certified. While given a year window to make the certified changes, the maintenance staff was able to complete them within months. In addition to making the Kissimmee apartment complex is first to fight community crime News-Gazette Photo/Tiffanie ReynoldsKissimmee Chief Lee Massie unveils the certification plaque to Lake Tivoli Apartments that made the complex the first community in Kissimmee to be certified as crime free.

Page A4, Remembering dads lessonTo the Editor: What a beautiful and inspiring memories by Mary Schmich, Osceola News Gazette, on Thursday, June 27, A dads lesson sometimes come in spite of himself. As I read with much interest the wonderful things she learned from her father, I also learned a few things from her. Through the entire story I was concentrating on a very valuable lesson I learned from my dad. I was 13-years-old. On one Saturday morning, he was doing some yard work close to the neighbors property line. Very annoyed and almost defiant, the neighbor yelled at my dad and warned him about getting to close to the property line. Very politely, my dad assured him that he would be very careful but that he would fix anything he was not happy with. After the neighbor left, I told my father he should not had apologized since he was right and he was wrong. He looked at me and said, son, as you go through life you will come across situations as this one, especially with neighbors. Even when you know you are right and they are wrong, it doesnt cost anything to say am sorry. But most importantly, he went on, if you have an emergency, and you are in good terms with your neighbor, he may very well be your closest relative. Dont ever argue with a neighbor, he said. As time passed, my dad and that neighbor became very good friends. He was right. Through the years I have had a few instances with a few neighbors. One I remember in particular was one that built an above ground pool and the fence was a few inches over my property line. When he noticed it and try to take down his fence, I told him to enjoy his pool and not to worry about it, unless it came to the point that one of us was selling the property. He and I became good friends. Four years later I sold my property and he took down the fence. When I moved here to Osceola County 15 years ago, this particular neighbor could not stand that a Hispanic family was moving next to him. And he made sure I knew it. Still knowing this, I would always say good morning, and waved at him as I was leaving or coming. One day I was working in my garage and I heard him cry for help. I was his closest relative. I made sure he received help and was transported to the hospital. We became good friends. He sold his house and moved to Texas with his family. To this day we are still very much in contact. Thanks dad. I know you are watching me practice what you taught me. A lesson very well learned. Tony Hernandez St. Cloud Its as if they didnt learn a thing from the 2012 elections. Republicans are on the same suicide mission as before -trying to block immigration reform (if they cant scuttle it in the Senate, theyre ready to in the House), roll back the clock on abortion rights (theyre pushing federal and state legislation to ban abortions after the first 22 weeks) and stop gay marriage wherever possible. As almost everyone knows by now, this puts them on the wrong side of history. America is becoming m ore ethnically diverse, women are gaining economic and political power, and young people are more socially libertarian than ever before. Why cant Republicans learn? Its no answer to say their base -ever older, whiter, more rural and male -wont budge. The Democratic Party of the 1990s simply ignored its old base and became New Democrats, spearheading the North American Free Trade Agreement (to the chagrin of organized labor), performance standards in classrooms (resisted by teachers unions), and welfare reform and crime control (upsetting traditional liberals). You wont hear about New Republicans taking over the Republican Party because the GOPs base is far more entrenched than was the old Democratic base. And its power is concentrated in mostly rural states -including most of the old Confederacy, the mountain states and Indiana -which together exert more of a chokehold on the Republican national party machinery than the old Democrats, spread widely but thinly over many states, exerted on the Democratic Party. These Republican states are more homogenous and conspicuously less like the rest of America than the urbanized regions of the country that are growing more rapidly. Senators and representatives from these states naturally reflect the dominant views of their constituents -on immigration, abortion and gay marriage, as well as guns, marijuana, race and dozens of other salient issues. But these views are increasingly out of step with where most of the nation is heading. This state-centered, relatively homogenous GOP structure effectively prevents the party from changing its stripes. Despite all the post-election rhetoric about the necessity for change emanating from GOP leaders who aspire to the national stage, the national stage isnt really what the GOP is most interested in or attuned to. Its directed inward rather than outward, to its state constituents rather than to the nation. This structure also blocks any would-be New Republicans such as New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie from gaining the kind of power inside the party that a New Democrat like Bill Clinton received in 1992. The only way theyd be able to attract a following inside the party would be to commit themselves to policies theyd have to abandon immediately upon getting nominated, as Mitt Romney did with disastrous results. Its true that by 1992 Democrats were far more desperate to win the presidency -having been in the wilderness for 12 years -than todays GOP appears to be. Nonetheless its doubtful the GOP will be willing to eschew its old base even if it loses the presidency again in 2016, because without its collection of relatively homogenous states, there just isnt much of a GOP. The GOPs national role will be primarily negative -seeking to block, delay and filibuster measures that will eventually become the law of the land in any event, while simultaneously preaching states rights and praying for conservative majorities on the Supreme Court. In other words, more of the same. Robert Reich, former U.S. Secretary of Labor, is professor of public policy at the University of California at Berkeley and the author of Beyond Outrage, now available in paperback. He blogs at www.robertreich.org. Time for everyone to step away from their respective ledges. A few days have passed since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on one of the most effective pieces of civil rights legislation ever passed, the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Some of the kneejerk liberal oratory, the gnashing of teeth, is completely out of step with reality. The courts decision does not signal a slippage to Jim Crow antics like poll taxes and hatred so violent that merely registering a black person to vote could lead to murder. Likewise, conservatives would do well to cease gloating about the landmark ruling that nullified an important part of the act. After all, its not like the court found that the nine states and portions of six others receiving extra scrutiny have become bastions of free and equal treatment for all voters. In fact, records compiled for Congress the last time it renewed the Voting Rights Act in 2006 reflect many examples of disparate impacts for voters in recent years. Clearly, a black man in the White House does not mean the nation has eradicated discriminatory problems in voting, intentional or not. The problem now is Congress. Congress needs to rewrite the guidelines nullified by the ruling to consider new situations across the United States. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts tried to nudge toward that goal in the ruling. Dramatic demographic shifts necessitate it. New populations of voters not fully considered in 1965 such as Hispanics, Asians and increasing numbers of less mobile elderly are bringing new challenges to ensuring access to the polls. The Courts 5-4 ruling in Shelby v. Holder made irrelevant a portion of the law initially intended to halt the horrific abuses of the civil rights era. Alabamas Shelby County challenged a section of the Voting Rights Act that mandated so-called pre-clearance standards. Most of the states and some of jurisdictions covered are in the South. Under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, they must first receive the federal governments permission before redrawing legislative maps, shifting polling places or enacting new rules on voter identification. These jurisdictions must prove to the Justice Department or a panel of federal judges that planned changes will not have a discriminatory effect. Problem was, the areas were chosen by past abuses. Too far in the past, the court decided, nullifying the formula used to determine who is covered. The court wants Congress to readdress the formula, using more current voting patterns. Congress failed to do that the last time the Voting Rights Act was renewed. The Justice Department can and will still pursue abuses. Theyll be busy. Accessibility to the ballot box is under assault in America. Legislatures nationwide are passing changes to voting laws, often under the guise of stopping voter fraud. Repeatedly, politicians pushing for the measures cannot prove fraud exists. Often, they are mislabeling database errors as fraud. Problems like two people with the same name, inaccurate data entry of addresses or birthdays. The glitches need to be eliminated; new technology can be employed. But the goal should always be to increase access eligible voters, not making reaching the ballot box unnecessarily more difficult -and often placing that burden on older, poorer and minority voters. Here is the thing. Areas affected by pre-clearance standards could have been exempted from scrutiny years ago. All they needed to do was keep a clean slate, not have any violations for 10 consecutive years. This process, called bailout, is included in the act. But problems continued. Most of the jurisdictions never met that mark. No, they had to wait until a conservative-leaning court cut them some slack. And now an ineffective Congress will make it that much more difficult to flag modern-era abuses. Mary Sanchez is an opinion-page columnist for The Kansas City Star.

Guest column Polling disenfranchisement will be more difficult to flagThe graduation speaker hadnt finished writing his speech. It was Thursday afternoon. Northwestern Universitys graduation was Friday morning. He had things to do besides sit for an interview. Lets get started, he said crisply. In the noisy, shadowy lobby of the Hotel Orrington in Evanston, Ill., near the NU campus, no one passing by noticed him for a while, this slight, middleaged man who from a distance looked like a million other guys in tan sports coats, unless you happened to notice how gracefully he crossed his legs or how he wove the air with his fingers while he talked. The speech. What would he say? Hed say that art is not just for the artist. That one of the highest compliments for anyone in any field is to be called an artist. That theres artistry to politics. He would say these things to students far better educated than he was at their age. At 19, after growing up in a communal apartment in Latvia, sharing a single kitchen and a single toilet with other families, hed gone straight to work, to dance, and before long to America. And then, he said, life went like that. He snapped his fingers to show how fast life happens. Like that. And it was at that moment that a grayhaired guy in a blue golf shirt figured out who he was. The guy stood and gawked, holding his smartphone like a hopeful suitor clutching a corsage he was too shy to present. Can I take your picture? the guy finally blurted. For a quarter of a beat, Mikhail Baryshnikov hesitated. Then he took off his glasses and gazed straight into the lens. Quickly, he said, and the guy walked off happy. Baryshnikov may be the most famous commencement speaker Northwester n has ever had -its hard to top Barack Obama and Stephen Colbert -but he remains one of the most famous dancers of all time, a fact that may be less relevant to the current college generation than his role as Carrie Bradshaws temperamental older boyfriend on Sex and the City. In his season on the show, Baryshnikov was called The Russian, and to many Americans, especially those old enough to remember when his ballets and romances made headlines, he will always be quintessentially Russian. To himself, hes fully American. Since his defection in 1974, Baryshnikov has never been back to Russia, he said, though he has been back to Latvia, where his mother, who committed suicide when he was in his teens, is buried. Im a product of Russian culture, he said, but I never felt it was my country. In the finger-snap of life since Baryshnikov arrived in the United States, he has lived many lives: dancer, actor, entrepreneur, parent, grandparent. He is 65 now. A dozen years ago, he told an interviewer he didnt think hed live past 60. He has four children, one with the actor Jessica Lange and three with Lisa Rinehart, a fellow dancer who came with him to Evanston. Their daughter Anna has been studying acting at Northwestern, which is how he came to be this years graduation speaker. When the kids were young, he tried to be home in time for dinner. Now that theyre all out of the house, he stays out late. He gets up most mornings and goes to his office at the Baryshnikov Arts Center, an arts complex he founded in Manhattan. And sometimes he dances. It hurts more, he said, and theres a longer warm-up. He stays in shape with a regular dance routine, physical therapy and stretching. And hes far from done, though having come from a place where men die young, he cant help but continue to think about his mortality. Every night, he said. Of course. But I dont panic yet. He laughed. A little bit of panic about tomorrows speech. Mary Schmich is a Pulitzer Prizewinning columnist for the Chicago Tribune. Contact her at mschmich@ tribune.com.

The revised study and charter was conducted by Val Ramos and submitted by PINCHO, with assistance by Thomas Bryer and Danny Ziegler, of UCF, Ken Small and Lynn Tipton, of Florida League of Cities and Marsha Segal-George of Fowler, OQuinn, Feeney and Snead in Orlando. The push for the revised study and charter, also funded by PINCHO, is a year of accumulated effort that began in November 2012. Members of the group met in individual houses of every village included, gauging the response of residents, which was largely positive. After a majority of the study was completed, they held a larger meeting with residents and got an overwhelmingly positive response to complete and submit the study. The most important was that the public itself, the majority of the public, was saying Move forward, move forward. So that gives you that extra oomph to keep on going, said Ramos. Not all are in agreement of the study. Don Gordon, president of village eight and in attendance at the conference, questioned the legitimacy of the study as well as critiques the amount of foresight that the study proposes. It was a feasibility study that just does not have a true understanding of the numbers. And, I hate to say it, but its not a feasibility study. What it is, is a recipe for a bankrupt city, Gordon said. He is neutral to the push for incorporation, but doesnt see the proposed plan as a working one. Currently, PINCHO is gaining signatures from residents in the included villages for a petition to make Poinciana an incorporated municipality, to show the amount of support this decision has in the community. But, besides gathering signatures, all the residential group can do is wait. The vote from county legislators will not happen until November or December of 2013, with the documents projected to move forward as early as next year. changes to the complex, residents also sign a lease addendum stating that they, as well as others living or affiliated with them, will not commit a crime on property. A violation of the addendum will result in the residents eviction from the complex. Officers of the Problem Oriented Police Unit, working specifically with apartment communities for this program, are working toward getting all 43 apartment communities in Kissimmee certified in the program. They cite that certified communities in the past have reported that calls made to the police have been lowered, resulting in less crime. The unit also plans to use the program to open dialogue between the community and the department. We kind of got away from that throughout the years, with law enforcement and the community. Its kind of like law enforcement is here and the community is there, and were trying to bring it all together. They can be able to come to us when they need assistance, and same for us. If we need the help, well go to them, and basically a partnership between us to make this community a lot safer, officer Jonathan Padilla, part of the Problem Oriented Police Unit, said. Currently, they are working with the other 11 apartment rental complexes that completed their manager cert ification course with Lake Tivoli. Most are in the middle of making the changes to their complexes needed for certification, and the unit is working to add more to the program in the future. ComplexContinued from Page A-3 16-years old and wanted to have a relationship with her. When he asked her how old she was, she said she was 14. During the investigation, detectives took into evidence the victims phone and began texting him. Kowalski sent the sexually oriented messages to detectives over the course of a few days, thinking it was the girl. In one of those messages, he sent a photo of his sexual organ, according to Sheriffs Office reports. He also sent a message that stated, I bet u (sic) will like it if we took a shower, think about my body touching ur (sic) body. On M onday, Kowalski texted the girl that he would meet her at her school in Poinciana at noon on Tuesday and then walk to her house. Jonathan made it clear that it was his intention to have sex, police reports stated. Kowalski took a bus to the school, where deputies confronted him. He was placed under arrest and taken to the Sheriffs Office administra tion complex. When deputies searched a bag he was carrying, they found condoms. During an interview with detectives, Kowalski said he met the victim at a youth group she was enrolled in at the church and that he worked with kids from kindergarten to sixth grade. He admitted to sending her the inappropriate emails and photo and that he intended on meeting the girl to have sex with her, reports stated. Based the information, Kowalski was arrested and booked into the Osceola County jail.PoliceContinued from Page A-1 PoincianaContinued from Page A-1 FAMILY DENTISTRY 2618 13TH ST., ST.

Saturday, July 6, 2013 NEWS-GAZETTE, Page A7 By Rick Pedone Sports Editor After coming close one year earlier, St. Clouds Austin Ocasio won the 2013 Class 2A 238-pound state weightlifting championship with relative ease. The Bulldogs senior bench pressed 430 pounds and clean and jerked 300 for a 730pound total that gave him the gold medal. He finished 30 pounds ahead of Gabe Moultrie of Pensacola Pine Forest and Delands Patrick Ball. Ocasio, the Osceola NewsGazettes Male Weightlifter of the Year, was third at the state meet in 2012 with a total of 650 pounds. I felt confident that I would do it. After the third meet we had this year, I think it was at Spruce Creek, I knew that I would win it, he said. St. Cloud Coach Cory Aun was every bit as confident as his champion lifter. He wasnt r anked the highest going into (the state meet), but I knew he had a lot of weight to play with, Aun said. Ocasio injured his knee playing football for the Bulldogs during his junior season. He was only partially healed when the 2011-12 weightlifting season rolled around. I was probably 50 or 60 percent, he estimated. It didnt bother me so much on the bench, but it really hurt my clean and jerk. I did 275 when I was a sophomore and only 250 last year. I couldnt bend my knee the way I needed to. It was frustrating. Coach Aun said the injury cost Ocasio the 2012 state championship. Fortunately, the knee was no problem this year. This is an amazing feat considering Austin had a season-ending ACL tear his junior year during football. I can only imagine what he would have done had he not been injured, Aun said. Ocasio breezed to a 60-pound victory at the district meet and won the Orange Belt Conference title with equal ease. The state meet looked to be a challenge after Pine Forests Moultrie posted a qualifying total of 740 pounds, 40 more than Ocasios 700. But, Moultrie missed two bench presses and managed only a 385 total, far less than his 425 qualifying total. With Ocasio so far ahead of Moultrie going into the clean and jerk competition, he could afford to play it safe. When Ocasio nailed 300 pounds on his final attempt, the championship was secure. It took some of the pressure off, when Moultrie stumbled in the bench press, Ocasio said. I knew once I got my first (clean and jerk) that I was in pretty good shape. It felt great to hit the last one. Aun said Ocasio put all the pressure on Moultrie by hitting 300 pounds in the clean and jerk. Austin missed his first attempt at 300, which made my heart stop, but he came back and hit it on his final attempt, Aun said. The other lifter then had to make an immense jump to 33 0 pounds to win, and he missed giving Austin the state title. Ocasios is the ninth state weightlifting title for the St. Cloud weightlifting program and it snapped a seven-year dry spell. Nate Sandoval won at 183 pounds in 2006. While he holds a weightlifting gold medal, Ocasios next athletic endeavor will be on the football field. He will play at the College of Siskiyous at the community college level in Weed, Calif. Im going to play linebacker, he said. Thats my favorite position. Ocasio plans to transfer to a four-year program after his career at Siskiyous. Ocasios teammate, Hans Schroeder, was second at 183 pounds, helping the Bulldogs place second overall at the state meet. Osceola Highs Riley Nicholson placed fifth at 219 pounds at the Class 2A meet. Harmony continued its domination at the Orange Belt Conference meet, where it won the team title for the sixth consecutive season and had five individual champions under Coach John Wallauer Jr. Follow us on Twitte r Dogs Ocasio muscled to victory All-County weightliftingKissimmee boxer Antonio Vargas won the flyweight championship for Team USA at the Klitchko Brothers tournament in the Ukraine recently.News-Gazette Photo/Andrew Sullivan 16-year-old OHS student won at Ukraine tournamentAbove, Austin Ocasio prepares to lift the clean and jerk that guaranteed him the Class 2A state championship at the state meet at the Kissimmee Civic Center. Below, Ocasio stands at the top of the platform during the medal ceremony.News-Gazette Photos/Rick Pedone Sports briefs By Rick Pedone Sports Editor Kissimmee amateur boxer Antonio Vargas won the flyweight championship for Team USA last week at the Klitchko Brothers Tournament in the Ukraine. Vargas, a 16-year-old Osceola High student competing in his first international event, defeated Armenias Erik Petrosyan, 3-0, to earn the gold medal. Vargas made the ninemember U.S. Team after winning the Youth Division at the USA Boxing Nationals at Spokane, Wash. last spring. He is trained by Dan Soto at Dans Boxing Gym in Kissimmee. Soto, who has guided the Kissimmee boxer for about a decade, called Vargas one of the most promising boxers in the USA Boxing program. This young man has a real chance to compete at the Olympic level, he said. We are so proud of everything he has done in and out of the ring. Despite a rigorous training schedule that sees Vargas in the gym for several hours each week, plus a travel schedule that has him competing at amateur national tournaments around the nation several times a year, Vargas maintains a 3.4 GPA at OHS. Two more U.S. boxers reached the finals at the Klitchko Brothers Tournament. Kareem Martin of Maryland defeated Ukraines Aleksyei Tokarchuk, 2-1, for the welterweight championship. Alex Rincon from Texas lost, 2-1, for the middleweight title to Ukraines Aleksandr Hijnyak.

Its time for Johnny Depp to come out from behind the make-up. Depp, for seemingly decades now, has become one of the more revered figures in acting for his caricature portrayals of everyone from Ed Wood, Jr. to Edward Scissorhands. But the greasepaint started to run back with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and four doses (soon to be five) of Pirates of the Caribbean havent helped. And with his Tonto getting top billing over The Lone Ranger well enough is enough. The Lone Ranger isnt the biggest disappointment of the summer, but at nearly 150 minutes in length and seemingly that many minutes of dull stretches, it comes mighty close. Director Gore Verbinski who has made all of the Pirates of the Caribbean films borefests (except for his highly original first film) pretty much does the same thing here. There is a rousing climax with explosions, train crashes and the like, but getting to that climax is a major undertaking. The script here is reminiscent of Little Big Man (which for a lengthy film is much more fun, plus it features Dustin Hoffman in one of his stellar roles).

One of the more inventive horror films turns into a real life experience when Halloween Horror Nights tranforms The Cabin in the Woods into a haunted house this fall. Universal Orlando Resort recently announced the horror film as the first new house for Halloween Horror Nights 23. Universals Entertainment team is partnering with LionsGate and film director and co-writer Drew Goddard to deliver what promises to be a movie-quality haunted house experience thats authentic to the film and places guests in the middle of an ancient fight for survival. Additional details about this years event are expected soon, about The Cabin in the Woods and other all-new, haunted houses scheduled for the 23rd version of the popular Halloween event. Running select nights from Sept. 20 to Nov. 2, Universal Orlandos Halloween Horror Nights has a more than 20-year history of at being one of the nations best and most w ellattended Halloween events.. The event features highlythemed, disturbingly-real haunted houses that are based on everything from hit films like The Cabin in the Woods to worst nightmares -and streets filled with hundreds of specially-trained scareactors. Tickets and vacation packages are on sale now and can be purchased at Halloweenhorrornights.com/orlando. Available on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download, The Cabin in the Woods was directed and co-written by famed filmmaker Drew Goddard and co-written and produced by sci-fi and horror icon Joss Whedon. The film follows five friends on a college getaway to a remote cabin, and their fate is sealed the moment they walk through the door. They are pawns in a ritual sacrifice that demands blood. This is a twisted dream come true for me, said Goddard.

No, these dinos can fly See Horror, page B-3For thousands of years, humans have believed that there were once flying monsters. But did they really exist beyond our nightmares? The Digital Adventure Theater: A National Geographic Experience will explore this question with Flying Monsters 3D, a new adventure film from award-winning Atlantic Productions, in association with Sky 3D, and distributed by National Geographic Entertainment. The film uses 3D and CGI technology to immerse audiences in a prehistoric world inhabited by pterosaurs, flying vertebrates with a wingspan of up to 45 feet that lived alongside dinosaurs. Flying Monsters 3D was produced by filmmaker Anthony Geffen and narrated by veteran filmmaker and renowned naturalist Sir David Attenborough. The film opened earlier this week at the Orlando Science Center. More than 220 million years ago, dinosaurs were beginning their domination of Earth.

Page B2, Less than an hour east of Osceola County, you will find one of the most unique vacation spots on the east coast of Florida. The Dolphin Inn, located on the southern end of Cocoa Beach on the banks of the Banana River, is a quiet Key West-style tropical getaway. You will not find the 5 star amenities like granite counter tops and concierge service, but you will be treated to a tranquil and natural area away from the hustle and bustle. At the Dolphin Inn, your adult escape is about customer service. The grounds of this resort are filled with lush vegetation, a koi pond, and plenty of lounge chairs for peaceful sunbathing. The half-acre property, at 2902 S. Atlantic Ave. in Cocoa Beach, makes the best use of all the natural beauty. Just cross the street and you are on the beautiful Atlantic sand of Cocoa Beach. Just steps from your room you can swim with the dolphins in the Banana River. With 11 very clean and tastefully decorated rooms, the quiet is one of the best assets of the Dolphin Inn. Owner Debbie Griffiths is on site almost around the clock. We are not corporate,said Griffiths. We are what we are, very unique. Shes all about making your stay a relaxing one.

Horror Continued from page B-1 even more makeup than usual) is aged and is a part of a Wild West sideshow. And Tonto (in Little Big Man fashion) does a lengthy flashback to a young Lone Ranger fan, of what is was like to be the famous sidekick of a Western hero. Armie Hammer (The Social Network) plays John Reid/ The Lone Ranger and competing with Depp and his makeup does make the famous ranger little more than a sidekick. Hammer does finally get in super hero mode in that rousing climax, which comes complete with the obligatory Rossini William Tell Overture. But it takes a rousing William Tell Overture to stay awake through much of The Lone Ranger. There is some nice cinematography of the West that would probably even meet director John Fords approval, but that can only go so far. In true Western tradition there are bad guys (William Fichtner plays a particularly nasty villain) and the ladies, the innocent and not so innocent (frequent Depp co-star Helena Bonham Carter) and they are saving graces of The Lone Ranger. But the attempts at humor frequently fall flat and whatever it is that Depp is trying to convey is his weird portrayal of a native American, seems more about Johnny Depp acting weird in makeup than a memorable tribute to a Comanche warrior. Not too much resonates from behind all that makeup. Here is a behind the scenes featurette link to the film as well as a preview clip.

DisneyThe Lone Ranger and Tonto at the rousing conclusion of The Lone Ranger. another group of reptiles was about to make an extraordinary leap: pterosaurs were taking control of the skies. The story of how and why these mysterious creatures took to the air is more fantastical than any fiction and one of the greatest mysteries in paleontology. How did lizards the size of giraffes defy gravity and soar through prehistoric skies? Driven by the information he finds as he attempts to answer these questions, Attenborough starts to unravel one of sciences more enduring mysteries, discovering that the marvel of pterosaur flight has evolutionary echoes that resonate even today. Applying the same stateof-the-art 3D CGI technology that was used in Avatar, Flying Monsters 3D also employs pioneering scientific techniques that reveal new details about pterosaurs. From discovering pterosaur embryos that show they might have flown from birth to figuring out how a creature the size of a giraffe could possibly fly, Flying Monsters 3D will resolve mysteries that have intrigued scientists for more than two centuries. Its almost as if this animated 3D technology was created to tell our story, Geffen said. With a pterosaurs eye-view of a hyperreal prehistoric Earth in 3D CGI, our audience will see the challenges of survival, including courtship, flying and hunting. D is a wonderful way of seeing the world as the pterosaurs did, Attenborough said. Pterosaurs are the most unlikely of creatures, but they dominated the skies for millions of years, and now this film will enable us to fly in 3D with them, the largest flying creatures the world has ever known. Flying Monsters 3D will be showing at Orlando Science Center through fall 2013. See Flying Monsters 3D with admission to Orlando Science Center which is $19 for adults and $13 for youth. Tickets also include access to all four floors of exhibits, unlimited educational films, one Hollywood feature film and live presentations.DinoContinued from page B-1 070613.SNG
