Will body cameras become new standard? By Kathy Steele
ksteele@lakerlutznews.com
The Pasco County Sheriff’s Office rolled out the use of body cameras as standard equipment for its deputies beginning in February. The Tampa Police Department has adopted a pilot program, using 80 cameras in three police districts. The leaders of both police agencies spoke about the use of body cameras at the debut of the Criminal Justice Speaker Showcase on April 16 at Saint Leo University. Pasco Sheriff Chris Nocco and Tampa Police Chief Jane Castor addressed roughly two dozen faculty, students and media about the expanding use of body cameras. Pasco’s deputies and investigators put on a body camera at the beginning of each shift. Nocco made the decision to use the cameras after seeking opinions from other law enforcement agencies that were using the technology even before the tragic events in Ferguson, Missouri. “One thing that was consistent when they were asked the question ‘Would you ever go back?’They all said no,” Nocco said. The Ferguson, Missouri incident involved a white police officer who shot and killed a 17-year-old black teenager. The incident sparked riots in Ferguson and a national protest regarding charges of

excessive police force and racism. An investigation cleared the officer in Ferguson of any wrongdoing. The use of body cameras will have a significant impact on policing, Nocco said. “It’s going to change the way we do law enforcement,” Nocco said. “It’s an evidencebased business model.”
Police departments already using the cameras have reported fewer confrontations and reduced complaints from residents. Nocco also said he expects the court system will benefit, because more suspects will plead out cases rather than go to trial. See CAMERAS, page9A

Kailey Kleinatland took up golf when she was 7. Two years later, she has a shelf full of trophies and is a member of the USA Junior Team program.
Kailey Kleinatland is 9 years old, and she already loves golf. Besides practicing and playing, she loves what comes afterward. “The fun part is you get trophies,” she said. Not everyone wins trophies when they hit the links, but not everyone has Kleinatland’s skills. In just two years, the Lutz resident has won tournaments at places like Westchase Golf Club, Carrollwood Country Club, Tampa Palms Golf & Country Club, Belleair Country Club and Crescent Oaks Country Club. And her prospects are looking even better since she has been accepted into the USA Junior Team program. While golf is a challenging — and potentially lucrative — sport, it’s also quite expensive. After getting off to a great start with her first coach, Bill Monical, it became clear that Kleinatland would benefit from high-level training that can cost hundreds of dollars per session. Because her family isn’t wealthy, making the junior team was the only way she’d be able to get that training. When she qualified, her father, Howard Kleinatland, saw it as a sign that their faith See GOLFER, page9A

Pasco County is trying again to obtain a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to build an 8-mile extension of Ridge Road. The project is a high priority for the county to provide an additional evacuation route during hurricanes or other emergencies. Consultants with Washington D.C.-based Dawson & Associates briefed the Pasco Commission on April 14 on its analysis of road designs requested by the Corps of Engineers, including the county’s initial proposal and 17 alternatives. The federal agency rejected a prior application based on insufficient data. County officials expressed frustration over the agency’s lack of information regarding its requirements prior to sending in its application. “We would do what you want, if you’d just tell us what you want,” said Georgianne Ratliff, an urban planning consultant serving as project manager on the Ridge Road extension.
The rejected application eliminated without analysis 10 alternatives that the county considered not practical to build largely due to cost. Corps officials said detailed analysis of all options had to be provided. “They wanted a full analysis, and we have done that,” said David Barrows, senior counselor with Dawson & Associates. At issue are about 58 acres of the 6,000acre Serenova Preserve, set aside years ago to mitigate the loss of wetlands during construction of the parkway. County officials must come up with an option that will do the least damage to the environment. Efforts to secure the permit have been ongoing for nearly 15 years. Critics of the extension have said the project will open up the area to more development. The county has determined that four of the 17 alternatives are practical options. Costs range from about $77 million to nearly $102 million. The most expensive road project would be four lanes and would be partially elevated. Barrows said that alternative would be the least damaging to the environment. It would impact about 23 acres of wet-
lands and 86 acres of upland habitat. For several years the county’s budget has included about $42 million for the first phase of the project. Currently the road dead-ends at Moon Lake Road in New Port Richey. The extension would link to U.S. 41 with a connection to the Suncoast Parkway in Land O’ Lakes. The Corps of Engineers must issue a permit based on regulations within the Clean Water Act. Before the matter is all settled, other agencies also will weigh in. Among them are Southwest Florida Water Management District and the Environmental Protection Agency The next step in the process is awaiting a response from the Corps of Engineers to know if additional information will be required, Barrows said. He hopes a meeting will be scheduled within two months. While a final decision is still months away, Barrows said there is a better understanding of what has to be done. “I congratulate you on securing the goal posts,” said Commissioner Jack Mariano. “I’m very impressed.”
Club offers venue for artistic growth By Kathy Steele
ksteele@lakerlutznews.com
Artists always need venues to display their art and kindle their passion for creativity. The Zephyrhills Art Club has been a friend to the local art scene for nearly 40 years, encouraging both budding and professional artists. “It’s hard to find a place to show your work,” said Gainor Roberts, art instructor and retired art curator for the Carrollwood Cultural Center. “(The club) is great for networking.” Roberts was a recent guest artist at the club’s monthly meeting and offered critiques of paintings by its members. Much of the art was on display in a “member minishow” that featured garden scenes. Members later voted on their favorites. Nelida DiLorenzo got some advice from Roberts on her garden scene that highlighted a pair of ethereal sprites. The painting had earned her a second place ribbon. Roberts — who continues to teach and paint — is known for her still life and landscapes, and works in egg tempera, oil, pastel, watercolor and monotype. DiLorenzo appreciated the critique. “This gets you excited,” she said. “You have the interactions. You have to have the input from people.” The club was founded in the mid-1960s by a group of local artists, including Ruth Coe who died in 2004. Currently, the art club has more than 90 members. Its youngest member is 10; its oldest members are in their 80s. In addition to its monthly meetings, the club has workshops, field trips and special events to encourage networking and artistic growth. The club also sponsors an annual juried art show. Meetings are on the second Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m., at the First Christian Church at 6040 Eighth St., behind the post office in Zephyrhills. “It’s open to anyone,” said Joyce Owens, the club’s president. In March, the club hosted a workshop in watercolor techniques led by Chinese artist Lian Quan Zhen. Other workshops have fea-

NATURE NOTES
What are those patches on my trees?
They’re likely lichens, and they’re not harmful. By Nicole Pinson
Special to The Laker/Lutz News
It’s spring, and you’re out in your garden enjoying the flowers and making plans — and then you begin noticing problems. When you glance at a nearby tree, you may see patches all over the trunk, bark and stems. These patches, or spots, are commonly white or green, but sometimes they are gray, pink, red, yellow or lime green. They may appear crusty, shrubby or leafy. Although they look like some type of harmful organism, they are, in reality, harmless lichens, pronounced l -kens. Lichens are not plants. They do not have a vascular or circulatory system that moves water and nutrients. They do not have roots, stems or flowers, either. Actually, lichens are made up of two organisms that live together: an alga and a fungus. The lichen relationship is unique. The alga makes food for the lichen through photosynthesis, but it cannot live on its own. The fungus provides protection and helps anchor the alga. The fungus also prevents the alga from being damaged by too much light. Lichens are able to live in diverse, even difficult, places. You can find lichens attached to rocks, cliffs, tree bark, bare soil,

fence posts, concrete walls and gravestones. Since they lack a vascular system, lichens get their nourishment from rain, fog, dew and moisture released by plants and debris. Lichens do not parasitize or harm the structures or plants they are living on. The common “deer moss” found on bare soil in natural areas, such as in state and county parks, is actually a lichen. Lichens grow slowly, only a few millimeters per year, and they can live for thousands of years. Because of their long life spans, scientists measure lichens and use this information to date rocks and events. Lichens provide many benefits. They are a food source for animals. They provide protective camouflage. They are useful in tanning and dyeing cloth. In some parts of

the world, they feed large herds of caribou. Lichens supply nesting material for birds and mammals. In some cultures, lichens are used for medicine and as a minor food source. As they grow over bare rock, they help collect organic matter, which builds and replenishes the soil over time. Lichens are also associated with good air quality. Lichens reproduce asexually, most often when pieces break off and start new lichens. Or, they reproduce sexually through spores. Because pollution can affect their growth and reproduction, lichens may not grow in highly polluted environments. For this reason, they are at the center of worldwide research studying the relationship between lichens and air pollution. Although lichens are often mistaken as disease or fungus, they are harmless.
As we always say in Florida Friendly LandscapingTM and pest management, identify the “pest” first before selecting controls. If your tree appears stressed or unhealthy, consider other factors such as planting depth, drought, disease, insects or water. And if you see a lichen, remember you don’t need to do anything to “treat” it. For additional information, contact pinsonn@hillsboroughcounty.org or (813) 744-5519, Ext. 54145.

Lawmakers are weighing in during the current legislative session. One bill would require agencies that use body cameras to set policies on their use and training requirements. A second bill would set exemptions to the state’s public records law that supporters say would protect the general public’s privacy. Critics say that could lead to less transparency and allow law enforcement to conceal misdeeds. Castor said there should be some limitations.

Her older brother, Codey, has a disability, making that area of volunteering a personal one for her family. If the Kleinatlands were unsure if Kailey would qualify for the USA Junior Team, they shouldn’t have worried.

And with decades of coaching experience, specifically with golf academy programs, Brewer is an expert at knowing what to look for in a young golfer. She had to go through profile testing on a series of skills, and Kailey qualified for the “junior stars” category in most of them. In the others, she was closer to the Kailey Kleinatland has fun playing golf, but she takes higher “elite” category, despite her shots seriously. being younger than a lot of the other students.

Teaching Old Dogs New Tricks By Meaghan O’Neal Special to The Laker/Lutz News Don Grady, owner of Don’s Dogs, is a dog trainer that has a unique and effective perspective on dog training. Don’s wife, Valerie, and family always told him that he should become a dog trainer because of his love for dogs and natural knack at training them. According to Don, he, “thought they were crazy� because he didn’t have any formal training. Don is a classically trained chef and worked in the culinary industry until the recession hit. Knowing that he had a gift for training, his wife submitted an application for him at a local pet store and it was during this job that the idea for Don’s Dogs was born, and he decided that he would like to do training on his own. As a trainer, Don primarily focuses on obedience training. He also trains dogs with behavioral issues, such as shyness, aggression and fear anxiety. “I’ll teach any dog,� says Don, “it doesn’t matter how old the dog is.� He’s been very successful with older dogs, including his 14- year-old Border Collie mix named Zoey. Don claims that every day he “proves that the old adage ‘you can’t teach an old dog new tricks’ is simply not true.� In addition to teaching obedience, Don has begun training his other dog Abby, a mixed breed that he rescued, in Agility, an obstacle course for dogs. As the dogs run through the course, the trainer runs with them and gives them cues. Don describes it as a “dance between dog and owner� and says that it’s a great exercise for high-energy dogs that are well trained in obedience. Since he’s
started training Abby in agility, Don has noticed her become calmer, which he attributes to her being able to have another outlet for her intelligence and energy. When a customer begins training with Don, he goes to their home first since that’s where the dog and owner are most comfortable. Once he feels that the dog is adequately trained at home, he will take customers and their dogs on “field trips� starting with places with few distractions and moving to places with greater distractions. The final training sessions are in areas such as The Shops at Wiregrass where there is a high level of activity. Don says, “My thought is that if the dog can focus on you at Wiregrass on a Sunday afternoon, they should be able to do okay when you’re on a walk or at your house.� Seeing a dog’s progression in training is one of his favorite parts of the business. More important to Don, however, is when he starts to see the training make sense to the owners. In the past few years of training dogs, Don has found that training owners is the hardest part of the job. His absolute favorite part of training is when owners have their “aha� moment. According to Don, “When they finally understand that they need to speak to the dog in a language the dog understands, training becomes easy.� Don considers the beginning of his business an accident since he is just finding his calling. However, his greatest fulfillment in work so far has been found in his training dogs and owners to coexist and experience life together. To set up a training appointment or find out more about Don’s Dogs, contact Don at (813) 784-2698.

Wesley Chapel soccer team wins state title By Michael Murillo
mmurillo@lakerlutznews.com
Wesley Chapel Soccer Club has always had hard-working, athletic players who enjoy the game and strive to improve. But even with a variety of teams ranging in age from U9 to U18, they’ve never had a state champion. That is, until now. The U15 Girls White Team captured the Region C title — also a first for the club — to participate in the four-team state tournament for the President’s Cup earlier this month. The Flames then got past the Florida Blast (42) and Creeks Krush (3-0) in convincing fashion to earn the cup in Auburndale, marking the club’s first state championship since it began more than a decade ago. “The whole team was thrilled. They were filled with excitement,” said assistant coach Jeff Olsen. The team was able to execute its team philosophies on its way to the President’s Cup. They utilized a “strike first” mentality, scoring within the first few minutes of both the semifinal and final. But after that they preach a defensive mindset, calling on every player, regardless of position, to be on guard when the other team has the ball. The end result is a quick-strike offense and a challenging defense that was too much for their opponents in the tournament. They also have a specific plan when it comes to fouls: Don’t do it. Even when the other team plays an overly aggressive style,
Olsen said, the players know that the proper response isn’t retaliation. It’s determination. “We play harder and smarter, but we like to play clean, too,” Olsen said. “We focus on the game.” That focus allows them to concentrate on scoring and playing sound defense when an opponent might be struggling with a yellow card, which signals a warning, or even a red card, which signals an ejection. Carrie Greene, a midfielder and team captain, agrees. “We understand that if we play to the best of our abilities, the rough play won’t matter,” she said. Playing their best comes easier because the players know each other so well, Greene said. Many have played together for years in the competitive system, as well as the recreational one. That familiarity allows them to predict each other’s movements and play better as a team. As a result, they can set the tone of the game and face challenges with confidence. The Flames now face a couple of new challenges. They’ll travel to Lafayette, Louisiana, to represent Florida and to compete in the Region III President’s Cup in June. And, they have to find a way to pay for it. The team has less than six weeks to raise around $20,000 for travel, lodging and expenses for 17 players and two coaches. They plan to reach out to individuals and businesses, as well as host fundraisers, to meet their goal.

Natalie Gonzalez gets past the defense in Wesley Chapel’s 4-2 semifinal win. They won the state President’s Cup, with a 3-0 victory in the final.
Since goals — especially those on the field — seem to come naturally to the team, it is looking forward to its out-of-state competition in June. Claiming the state regional title, and then the state’s President’s Cup, has already taught players the value of staying focused and playing as a team. It’s also brought notoriety to the Wesley Chapel Soccer Club, proving that the philosophy of good sportsmanship and
enthusiastic-but-clean play can bring results on the scoreboard, too. “It shows that hard work, dedication, and loyalty to your club and your community pays off in the end,” Olsen said. The club will have competitive tryouts at the end of May. For information about the Wesley Chapel Soccer Club, visit WCAASports.org.

Protecting the earth, all year long By B.C. Manion
bcmanion@lakerlutznews.com

orrine Goodman is a big fan of Earth Day. “My only desire for Earth Day would be is that it’s a month long,” said the Lutz woman, who is an avid gardener. “We’re the caretakers of this earth,” said Goodman, whose water-saving practices earned her the 2014 Community Waterwise Award in Pasco County. Her yard is a work in progress — and it’s progressing quite nicely. “This was the ugliest house on the street, when I moved in, in January of 2010,” said Goodman, who lives in Carpenter’s Run. “There wasn’t grass. We had weeds,” she said. Currently there’s a rather large patch in the front yard that looks somewhat bare. That’s where the oak tree used to be, Goodman explained. But the tree was pushing up the driveway and someone walking past tripped, so Goodman took out the tree. The area looks somewhat sparse now, but Goodman has plans for it. She’s transplanted an ornamental cassia tree, which is a host to sulphur butterflies. “Now that I have some sun in the front yard, I’ve put in some milkweed to attract butterflies in the front yard, as well as the backyard,” Goodman said. In other spots in her front yard, there are splashes of color — from red amaryllis blooms, and there’s a trio of old tires she’s now using as plant containers. Along the side yard, there’s a thriving lion’s whiskers bush — with beguiling orange blooms. “They’re a really nice plant (for) hummingbirds, bees, butterflies,” Goodman said. In the backyard, the fragrance of rosemary wafts through the air and Tibetan prayer flags flap in the breeze. Goodman isn’t Buddhist, but she likes the flags. “The mythology is every time the wind blows and the flags move, a prayer is being sent to the creator for us,” she said. Around her yard are fully mature plants that once were mere cuttings from plants in other people’s yards. “That beach sunflower — that was one scraggly little plant,” she said. “That’s one

plant, that has spread like that.” Her garden boasts all sorts of plants and flowers. She has roses, sages, lilies, honeysuckle, pineapple, angel trumpet and camellias, to name just a few. And, her garden is thriving even though she uses no irrigation, no pesticides and very little fertilizer. “I have a really nice balance of good bugs, bad bugs, so I don’t have to use pesticides. “I don’t fertilize very much, because the mulch disintegrates. “The only water this yard gets is from the rain barrels and from nature. I have no irrigation, no sprinkling system,” she said. Tending the garden takes work, but for Goodman, it’s an exercise that’s good for the soul. “This is my oasis.This is where I come.” “When I go out and I sit in my garden in the morning, I take my coffee out and it, to me, it’s like my holy space or my sacred space. B.C. MANION/STAFF PHOTOS “I enjoy the butterflies, the lizards, the Corrine Goodman poses near some of the roses in her backyard. This gardener from Lutz cockroaches — I mean, everything has a believes in protecting the earth every day, not only on Earth Day, which is celebrated annualpurpose.” ly on April 22. She believes in the theory that one person respecting and tending the earth can affect the whole world. “It’s the old butterfly effect — ‘If the butterfly flaps its wings in Africa, that vibration carries around the globe.’ “I truly believe that.”
Bees, butterflies and hummingbirds are all drawn to this plant, said Corrine Goodman, of Lutz. From a distance, it’s hard to tell if this colorful lily is a plant or a sculpture.
These red amaryllis blooms create a splash of color in Corrine Goodman’s front yard.
Corrine Goodman’s garden includes yellow sage, as shown here, as well as blue sage and red sage, too.
Corrine Goodman uses the rain that nature provides and the water she collects from four rain barrels to water the plants in front yard, backyard and side yards.
This generous spread of beach sunflowers began with one scraggly plant, said Corrine Goodman, a Pasco County master gardener.
Among the many things growing in Corrine Goodman’s front yard is this head of cabbage.

Crews hit the streets to clean up Pasco County The Laker/Lutz News Staff Report
Crews spread out all over Pasco County to help pick up trash and debris as part of the Great American Cleanup on April 18. The county took part in the national effort to pick up trash, with many organizations and individual volunteers stepping up to do their part. One team, led by co-captains Marion Kaminski, Judy Geiger and Richard Riley, helped clean up sections of East Pasco. Among the items they picked up were five mismatched shoes, seashells, a snake and a brake pedal, as well as foam cups, paper wrappers, and plastic, metal and glass bottles. PHOTOS COURTESY OF RICHARD RILEY The cleanup was the weekend before Community members and supporters pose in front of The Christian Edge, a faith-based community center in the Trilby/Lacoochee area. Earth Day, which is celebrated annually on April 22. Keep Pasco Beautiful, a local affiliate of the national, nonprofit organization Keep America Beautiful, spearheads the effort on a local level. Pasco County has been participating in the cleanup since 1992. The Christian Edge on U.S. 301 in Lacoochee was the center for the Trilby and Lacoochee cleanup. Participants included River of Life Church -- Dade City, the Pasco County Sheriff's Officer Friendly Program, Troop 375 of the Boy Scouts of America, the Lacoochee Girl Scouts and some local families. Matthew Conn of Boy Scout Troop 375 helps Cpl. Curtis Adams place some trash they collected into the dumpster provided by Progressive Waste Solutions. Adams is one of the two Pasco Sheriff Officer Friendly deputies assigned to northeast Pasco County, which includes Dade City, Trilby and Lacoochee.
