PANDHANDLING in Ormond Beach
Aggressive solicitation would be banned throughout the city.
City Commissioner Bill Partington said people should be educated about what happens to the money they give to panhandlers. Partington said he
attended a presentation by consultant Robert Marbut, who said that for every dollar given, 93 cents goes for alcohol, drugs or other illicit activities.
“People think they are helping, but they are only making the situation worse,” Partington said. “Giving money does not help them get out of that situation.”
Marbut and area homeless advocates have recommended a centralized location for homeless services. Marbut was hired by

THE ULTIMATE LOVE By Emily Blackwood | Community Editor
Ormond Resident hopes to INSPIRE with her YOGA LINE

Brittny Lowe started her line, Twin Flame, one year ago.
Brittny Lowe plans to create a nonprofit organization to help children with incarcerated parents. Her own father is serving a life sentence.

n Brittny Lowe’s own words, yoga saved her life. Growing up with a single mom and dad who was in and out of jail, Lowe was often seeking inner peace. And she found it at We Are Yoga, in Ormond Beach. “Inside those walls, I found myself,” said Lowe, now a certified yoga instructor. “That was when I truly made the decision to follow the journey with yoga.” Her journey led her to India, a solo trip she took to volunteer at an orphanage for men-
tally ill children. “I just wanted to go,” Lowe said. “I wanted to experience where yoga originated. It really humbled me to see that there is so much more out there than what we know.” After returning from her trip, Lowe moved to North Carolina where she taught herself how to screen-print and decided she wanted to make shirts. Her brand, Twin Flame, is a spiritual concept of the ultimate love, meaning that there are two halves to a whole that complete each other in every way.
“I want to do something that gives back,” Lowe said. “My ultimate goal is to help others. My idea with this brand is to fund a nonprofit.” The 26-year-old wants to create a nonprofit organization that helps children of the incarcerated have an outlet so they don’t become victims of their situation. Lowe’s dad is currently serving a life sentence after a drunk driving accident that took the lives of three people.

The members of the Ormond Beach Elks Lodge 2193 recently made some charitable trips. The group visited the Daytona Beach Emory L. Bennett Nursing Home for Veterans to present several gift cards and share a cake. The gift cards were made possible through a $2,000 Gratitude Grant which the lodge received through its Elks National Foundation. The club also hosted a poker run fundraiser to benefit members Dwayne Rossi and Sue Hollaway. Rossi was recently diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing treatment. The event includes a bike ride, raffles and bake sales, followed by a pork barbecue dinner to raise money for Rossi’s hospital bills. The poker run raised over $5,000, and additional donations are being made to the lodge from members.

Though the bikers originally intended their rally to be for local politicians, it turned into a celebration of their own community. Held Oct. 11, at the White Eagle Lounge, the event consisted of a bike show, free food, entertainment and recognizing a few bikers for their time and talent. Willie Jones from Willie’s Tropical Tattoo was nominated for his role in taking care of the veterans during his Old School Chopper Show. Jones transported the veterans to the show from their homes and treated them to free T-shirts and their own VIP area. John Hamlin was also recognized for his support to the Boggy Creek
Kids Camp. Originally, the rally was designed to provide a platform for the local nonpartisan politicians to speak with the biker community, while also giving the motorcyclist a chance to ask their representatives questions. According to Bobby Colella of Bikers for Christ, no representatives from either party returned emails or phone calls. The bikers wanted to address the Ormond Crossings development and how it will impact the local culture and businesses that are focused on bike events. Other talking points were state and federally mandated helmet laws, motorcycle only checkpoints and equal access into establishments open to the public. — emily@ormondbeachobserver.com

State of the City is ‘prosperous’

FASHION FORWARD
By Emily Blackwood | Community Editor
Three citizens received awards for civic engagement at the annual luncheon. Ormond Beach Mayor Ed Kelley said he had to trick the Rev. Willie Branch to come to the State of the City luncheon Oct. 15. “I told him I wanted him to give the benediction,” he said. The mayor knew he would come to give a benediction, but might not come to receive an award, in this case an Award for Civic Engagement. Branch was one of three people to receive awards, which are presented annually by the mayor during the State of the City event to people who have made notable contributions throughout the year. Branch, a retired minister, is a volunteer chaplain for various organizations, including the Ormond Beach Police Department and Volusia County Sheriff’s Office, and chairman of both the Neighborhood Improvement Board and Ormond Beach Housing Authority. Last year, he became commander of American Legion Post 267, where he also serves as chaplain. Also receiving an ACE was Peggy Farmer for her work with the U.S. 1 coalition, a group of businesses and concerned citizens who are working to improve the development and appearance of the gateway to the city. Kelley said that in the future when people see improvements along the highway, they should realize she was one of the people who made it possible. Also receiving an award was Rick Fraser, executive director of the Ormond Beach Chamber of Commerce, for his support and leadership.

Mayor Ed Kelley spoke and showed a video of the city’s accomplishments in the past year. Kelley noted that the chamber luncheon was sold out, and he said a lot of the people in the room were involved in the business community because of Fraser. “It shows you what an outstanding difference one person can make,” he said. The State of the City luncheon is a joint production by the city of Ormond Beach and Chamber of Commerce, and the video shown at the luncheon revealed public/private partnerships throughout the year. The city provides monetary incentives to encourage existing businesses to grow
and new businesses to locate to the area. Incentives went to Duvasawko, which relocated to the city, Emergency Communications Network, which moved into larger quarters after renovating an existing building, and S.R. Perrott, which constructed a large building on North U.S. 1. Kelley said these three companies invested $10.5 million, which resulted in 430 new jobs. He also pointed out that the city sold eight acres in the business park to Padwell Holdings LLC for construction of a
facility to make modular commercial buildings, and helped Ameritech Die and Mold South with its plans to add manufacturing capabilities. Other accomplishments by the city included beautification of Granada Boulevard, the flood control project in Central Park which resulted in the connection of the lakes, the field house at the Sports Complex and reaccreditation of the police department. Kelley said the state of the city is “bright and prosperous.” — Email wayne@ormondbeachobserver.com.
RUMMAGE SALE By Wayne Grant | News Editor
Thrivent plans Market for a Mission Thrivent employees get involved with ‘Crop Drop’ and ‘The Lutheran Weigh.’ Charitable activities are a way of life for Thrivent Financial, of Ormond Beach. There latest venture is a new event planned for Nov. 15: Market for a Mission, a rummage sale with crafts and a variety of other items. The proceeds will benefit Halifax Urban Ministries and The Flagler County Free Medical Clinic. Thrivent is currently seeking participation from churches, crafters and businesses that want to reach the public with a table at the event. It will be located in their front lot at the Offices of Oak Park, 595 N. Nova Road. Katherine Kyle, financial representative, said they have been promised baked goods as well as garage sale items. There will also be barbecue, balloon art and face painting for children. People who wish to sell crafts will be charged $25, and businesses will pay $50. There is no charge for churches, because proceeds will go to the designated charities. Because Thrivent is a fraternal organization and does not pay federal taxes, profits must

The Volusia Flagler Chapter is going to donate funds to the two charities. The company has a culture of community support, which means a lot of involvement by the two financial representatives, Kathrine Kyle and Becky Lester, and their staff. Lester has been with the company 25 years and said it’s
not like a regular job. She said it has been “amazing” to be involved with the community. Projects she has been involved with include a “Crop Drop,” which she describes as a “cool thing.” They helped the Society of St. Andrews go through farm fields in northwest Florida and collect cucumbers that were rejected by the grocery stores,
but were still fine to eat. The cucumbers were distributed at Halifax Urban Ministries and food pantries in the area. Another project was called The Lutheran Weigh, in which churches competed to see who could bring in the most food, which was donated to local food banks. “That was crazy,” she said. “I actually went around weighing all the food.” Other activities she has been involved with include Sole Support for Parkinson’s, a walk to raise money for the local Parkinson’s Association. In 2012, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans decided to include all Christians in their membership and became Thrivent Financial. The fraternal organization was originally formed in the early 1900s to provide life insurance and annuities, and now offers a full range of financial services. Kyle said the company protects their clients’ future, and helps them give back to the community. For information about the Nov. 15 Market for a Mission, call 675-6838 or 672-9033.
Mainland High grad breaks into fashion industry Jade Eppelheimer has been making her mark designing high-end intimates for Macy’s, in New York City.
S
ome people might assume all a fashion designer does is sketch, but Jade Eppelheimer wants to set the record straight. “It’s lot of background work,” Eppelheimer, a designer for Macy’s, said.”You have to think outside the box to create a certain look for a certain customer, not for yourself.” A former Ormond Beach resident and Mainland High School graduate, Eppelheimer currently works in New York City designing sleepwear for Alfoni and Morgan Taylor Intimates, which is sold in Macy’s stores throughout the country. Though she’s always loved fashion, Eppelheimer didn’t realize she wanted to make it her career until her sophomore year of college. “I always enjoyed styling,” Eppelheimer said. “I loved fashion, and my mom always had a great sense of style, so I learned a lot from her. I knew at a point in college that I wanted to pursue fashion, but I didn’t know what to expect. You want to believe it is a certain way, but it’s different once you get in the industry.” She attended Daytona State College and graduated from Florida State University in 2008. She then landed an internship making sleepwear for Oscar de la Renta, which got her a start in the fashion industry. Eventually, Eppelheimer wants to break out of the sleepwear designing and get into ready-towear fashion. “I want to continue to grow as a designer and become a design director for a major brand,” Eppelheimer said. “One of my favorites is Marc Jacobs. I don’t exactly why, but I’ve always been attracted to his clothes.” Though she loves her New York lifestyle, Eppelheimer said there are definitely a few elements she misses from home. “There’s this great laid-back vibe,” she said. “When I go home, it’s a different type of atmosphere. I don’t feel obligated to dress a certain way. I can relax, and I’m not always on the move.”

BIKE-OVER-FEST
Daytona Beach with contributions from other municipalities to study the area’s homeless situation. He presented his findings last month. Partington made his comments as the City Commission passed an ordinance in a first reading on Oct. 21 that made several changes to existing panhandling laws. A second approval will be required at a later meeting. Partington said he has received many complaints from citizens about panhandling. Commissioner Richard Boehm agreed, saying the ordinance was long overdue. The ordinance prevents aggressive panhandling throughout the city, which is defined as conduct that is harassing, abusive, coercive or misleading in order to obtain money. Aggressive panhandling can be broadly prohibited, but passive panhandling, which can be a simple request for money, or holding a sign, is protected by the First Amendment. It can only be regulated for a specific purpose. The new ordinance will make it illegal to passively panhandle around the area of the Interstate 95 interchange with State Road 40, because it has been found to create a traffic danger. The buffer will extend from Interchange Boulevard to Williamson Boulevard. Other buffer zones for passive panhandling in the ordinance include public transportation vehicles or facilities, public bathrooms or near ATMs, where people feel threatened or unable to move away. The prohibition would apply equally to panhandling or other types of solicitation, including collecting for a charity.
MEMORIAL PARK,
78 EAST GRANADA BLVD. Situated on approximately 2.5 acres, Ormond Memorial Gardens are built on what was once a sand dune and is a natural ground that was gently developed into a park. Natural depressions were made into ponds, and you can climb the steps near the waterfall to the seemingly highest elevation in Ormond Beach. Parts are manicured landscape and other parts are left naturally wild. Although in the heart of the City, walking the paths gives you the feeling of being in a tropical rain forest. The Gardens contain five ponds that are home to numerous turtles, frogs and fish. Aquatic plants such as water lilies and water lettuces offer food, shade and natural cleansing within the ponds. Look for marginal bog plants such as papyrus, bananas, ginger lilies and wild flowers which flourish near the three ponds that were formed by natural depressions. Visitors can enjoy the solitude of a quiet bench or nook or walk the labyrinth inside the gazebo which is a popular site wedding and memorial ceremonies. For rental information, please call 386-676-3216. Open from sunrise to sunset
CALENDAR OF EVENTS

The streets of Ormond Beach were humming with the sounds of motorcycles Oct. 16-19 for the annual Biketoberfest. Melissa Penland, of the Ironhorse Saloon, credits her business’ success to the beautiful weather over the weekend. Barney Meaders parked 700 bikes at Wild Bill’s. “It was that busy,” he said. “I slept 12 hours the next day, and I never do that.”
YOGA / FROM PAGE 1 “My dad is incarcerated, and I have two little brothers,” Lowe said. “You hear about it in the news, but it does happen to people close to you. This happened when I was 19, but it wasn’t his first time in prison. Growing up, I was just sad, and I wanted to know why my dad couldn’t be normal. I want to be able to show kids that you can still be your own person and not let that keep you down.” Having yoga as her outlet of self-expression and awareness helped her get through her family’s hard times. She said it’s the reason why she is so attached to the exercise. “It really helped me to learn to let go,” Lowe said. “I’m trying to live a positive, meaningful life and not give energy to negative things. That’s what I want Twin Flame to be, just the wings over this little
baby that I want to create to give back.” Lowe relies almost completely on herself for her business, and she draws all of the designs on her products by hand. And she says that everything she prints, she means. “When I have a shirt that says, ‘free spirit,’ that’s what it means,” Lowe said. “I genuinely mean all the things I print and produce. And it comes from someone that’s been through it. We all have a story. So what I’m trying to create is something that’s going to stick with you and mean something to you.” Currently, Twin Flame is only available online at her Etsy store, Twin Flame Yoga Love, or at Platinum Yoga, where Lowe is also a yoga instructor. Lowe is hoping to put together an event with Frame of Mine this December. Visit her site at twinflameyogalove. com.
Empty Food Lion draws attention
In the discussion period at the meeting, Partington brought up the Food Lion grocery store on East Granada Boulevard, which has been vacant. Partington said he receives many comments from residents about the empty store, so he wanted to bring it up to the commission, even though it’s a privately held property and there is little the city can do. He said most people have remarked they would like a quality grocery store in the building. Mayor Ed Kelley said he and Economic Director Joe Mannarino had worked on the issue in past years, sending out letters to prospective grocery businesses. He said it might be a good time to try it again, because of the improving economy. “Maybe someone wants to buy it,” he said. “The city is not going to buy it.”

‘YOU CAN MAKE IT’ By Emily Blackwood | Community Editor
PACE student promotes positivity
+ Police investigate shooting The Ormond Beach Police Department investigated a shooting that occurred at 222 Seminole Drive at approximately 10:53 p.m. on Oct. 19. Charles Conyers, 43, was shot in the stomach by Thomas Costa, 49, after a fight, according to the police report. Both men reside at the address. The witness who called 911, another resident, said the shooting was in selfdefense, the report stated. The victim was transported to Halifax Hospital by EVAC ambulance. The injury was not life threatening, according to police spokesman Keith Walker. Costa, the suspected shooter, was released after questioning. Neither party wished to pursue charges, Walker said.
Guenivere recently performed her song, ‘Free,’ at the Stewart Marchman Annual Dinner. Up until she was 11 years old, Guenivere called her mother “Aunt Brooke.” Adopted when she was just a baby, Guenivere, now 17, grew up thinking her mother was just her aunt. But a gut feeling and a secret exchanged in a tree house led her to the truth. “I think every adopted kid will have an instinct,” said Guenivere, whose last name is withheld to comply with PACE Center for Girls’ confidentiality mandate from the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice mandates. “That’s what I had. My best friend and I were hanging out in her treehouse and I asked her, ‘Is Aunt Brooke my mom?’ She made me middle-finger swear that I would never tell that she told me.” She let her adopted parents know that she was in on the secret, and they cut off all contact between her and real mother, Brooke. Still, that didn’t stop Guenivere. “I would sneak on the computer to talk to her,” she said. “I had to make a fake Facebook and everything. My relationship with my parents is tense right now because they say my real parents are a bad influence on me.” However, Guenivere does understand where her adoptive parents are coming from. When they were living in Maine, she ran away with her biological mother four times to avoid moving to Florida. She didn’t have any contact with her biological father until this past December when she found him on Facebook. “I was searching forever,” she said. “You have no idea how many people have the same name as him on Facebook. He lives in Arizona, and I’m going to try to visit him someday.”

Earlier this month, Guenivere played her song at the end of the presentation for the Guardian Ad Litem staff and advocates.
Her contact with her biological parents created a wedge in her relationship with her adoptive parents, and that wedge eventually led to her not being allowed to have any electronic devices. “We have a huge trust and communication problem,” Guenivere said. “Hopefully one day that will all get fixed.” All of the issues between her and her family inspired Guenivere to write a song about her struggle with self-discovery. “I came up with some lyrics,” she said. “I didn’t know how to sing it or what I was going to play it to. I was at Beach House, which is a behavioral treatment center, and one of the staff had a guitar. So I put something with it.” She only had one verse written before she played with the guitar at Beach House, but since then it has been written, recorded and performed at the Stewart
5
Marchman Annual Dinner. Her song is titled “Free.” “The message is that you can make it,” she said. “Free from destruction, free from corruption. You may be struggling right now but you’re going to make it. I wrote it for me, but I’ve had someone tell me that they had a substance problem, and hearing that song made them feel good. It’s relating to them. I didn’t purposely make it that way, but it makes me feel good that it did.” She’s not sure how much music will influence her future career. She does plan to do something in the medical field after she graduates PACE this spring. “I really want to help others,” Guenivere said. “If the music thing does happen for me, it will be Christian or country music. I want to write songs that can put you in a positive mood.” Guenivere will perform her song, “Free,” at PACE’s “Positive Passion Night” Nov. 20, where all students will perform poems, songs and skits that promote positivity.
+ Employment improves The unemployment rate in Flagler and Volusia counties was 6.2% in September, according to the Florida Bureau of Labor Market Statistics in a report issued by CareerSource. That rate was 1.2 percentage points lower than the region’s year ago rate of 7.4%. The state unemployment rate for September was 6.1%.

It’s all about performance We often have noted that elections are referenda on incumbents’ performance. If they have performed satisfactorily and competently and continue to offer a governing philosophy that aligns with our nation’s founding principles — that is, a defense of and promotion of our unalienable rights of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness and freedom from the despotism of the tyrannical “state” — those candidates, in our view, deserve another term. So block out the ads; turn off the TV and radio. Take the time to evaluate the performances of the candidates up for reelection and whether their opponents have demonstrated better competence and that their ideas will further or reduce your liberty. Who has more of what it takes to lead? That analysis is the framework for deciding every election — particularly the elections of Florida’s four executive positions: governor, attorney general, chief financial officer and agriculture commissioner.
GOVERNOR
By now, most voting Floridians likely have consumed more than enough information to know the stark differences between incumbent Gov. Rick Scott and former Gov. Charlie Crist. They know the differences in their public personalities. We’ve said it before: Scott is stuff, Crist is fluff. Crist is the quintessential, smooth politician who molds his persona to appear as the populist, the likable man for the little guy. Everybody loves Charlie. He cares about you, and he cares about Florida — more than anybody. That’s the act. Scott is all business. Goals, objectives, benchmarks, measurements and accomplishments drive him. Nice guy one on one, SCOTT although challenged for much of his first term with connecting with Floridians. On a surface level and on TV, Crist beats Scott on the likability factor. But imagine you’re buying a stock. And when you buy a stock, you are buying a company’s CEO. Which CRIST one do you want: the niceguy CEO who is smooth in public with customers and with employees, or the one who is generates results, growth and shareholder return? Remember, you’re buying a stock for your future. Which one would you pick?: When Charlie Crist traveled with Florida CEOs to Brazil during his term as governor, a CEO who accompanied him reported to us Crist “was an embarrassment.” The Tampa Bay Times reported this summer: “Crist horrified staffers, who say he acted on the trip more like an entitled frat boy on spring break — skipping meetings with dignitaries, showing up late to scheduled events … “The aerospace conglomerate Embraer, a major employer in South Florida, laid out a fancy lunch spread for the governor and his delegation at its headquarters in Brazil. Crist stunned attendees when he suddenly excused himself barely 10 minutes into the meeting, telling (George) LeMieux he was bored.” Contrast that with Scott, who spends time each week personally making sales calls to CEOs in other states to persuade them to move their businesses to Florida. This is fact: No governor in a quarter century has spent more time focused on creating and bringing more jobs to Florida. To be sure, Scott cannot take all the credit for Florida’s economic recovery. But his efforts have set the tone. Since his election in 2010, Florida has generated the third highest number of jobs among the 50 states — 625,000, according U.S. data. He promised 700,000 in seven years. Now consider philosophical direction. Crist described his platform recently with
ELECTION 2014 this vague platitude: “Charlie Crist will have your back.” When you delve into specifics, nearly everything Crist wants to do as governor is expand the state Leviathan and restrict your freedom: reduce school choice; force taxpayers to subsidize lower property-insurance rates and take on insurance risk (a tax on your property insurance bill); increase government Medicaid spending; build a taxpayerfunded high-speed train (see California for reference); subsidize renewable energy with your money, and on and on. Every inch that state government expands is a lost inch of liberty. Scott, on the other hand, has stayed focused on creating a climate to encourage economic growth. It’s a page from the political formula of Abraham Lincoln: “The leading object” of government, Lincoln worte, is “to lift artificial weights from all shoulders — to clear the paths of laudable pursuit for all — to afford all, an unfettered start, and a fair chance, in the race of life.” Jobs allow this to happen. We’ll take more jobs over Charlie Crist having our back. Recommendation: Scott
ATTORNEY GENERAL
If you relied on the descriptions of incumbent Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi by the opinion editors of most of Florida’s big daily newspapers, you probably would conclude she deserves a failing grade. They don’t like her priorities. And they hate her politics. After all, she’s a conservative constitutionalist, which is anathema to their view of the world. They love her opponent, Democrat Party nominee George Sheldon. He’s a good guy, a career government man. A former state representative from Plant City, Sheldon also served as a top aide to former Democrat Attorney General Bob Butterworth; the numbertwo in the Department of Children and Family Services under Butterworth; as Gov. Charlie Crist’s secretary of DCF; and until recently, an assistant secretary in the Department of Health and Human Services. Sheldon, of course, has portrayed himself as Charlie Crist did when Crist served his one-term stint as attorney general: tough on white-collar crime and the consumer’s best friend. But Sheldon also showed his own nasty political side when he accused Bondi last fall of making an investigation of a Donald Trump-affiliated business “evaporate” — Sheldon’s word — after she received a $25,000 contribution to her campaign from a Trump business. Those were fighting BONDI words. Be sure to watch the video referenced in the accompanying box all the way to the end. When a reporter at an Associated Press conference asked Bondi about Sheldon’s accusation, she let loose with a response that pretty much sums up how Sheldon’s candidacy should be viewed. Said Bondi: “It’s untrue, it’s offensive and it’s despicable for someone running for chief legal officer [to] say such a lie. He needs to know his facts before he talks … “That I would make an investigation
THE PAM BONDI STORY To understand what Attorney General Pam Bondi has done in her first term, we highly recommend your viewing this video. You won’t get this side in the mainstream press: www.youtube.com/ watch?v=qHwb1HnWJoE
evaporate? You want someone like that to be your attorney general? … It’s completely false. … For him to say an investigation was pending when I took a campaign contribution and that it evaporated — it’s despicable and disgusting.” And let’s do set the record straight. Sheldon and the opinion editors make Bondi out to be ineffective and misdirected, focusing too much on fighting the federal government. They give her grudging credit for ending Florida’s pill-mill crisis and attacking the trafficking of teenage girls. And they slap her for postponing a death-penalty execution because it conflicted with a political event. They’re right on the latter. Bad “optics,” as they say in Washington. But they fail to mention barely a “smidgeon” of what Bondi has accomplished in her first term. We urge you to watch the YouTube video. Her accomplishments are many and signficiant. Recommendation: Bondi
CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER & AGRICULTURE COMMISSIONER
One of the oddities of Florida government is its elected Cabinet. While many people believe Florida’s governor has the same powers and authorities as the president of the United States, in fact, the governor shares authority with the three Cabinet members — attorney general, chief financial officer and agriculture commissioner. They vote on such things as the location of electric power plants; the control and disposition of all stateowned property; and they serve as the collective head of Florida’s Department of Law Enforcement. They wield a lot of power ATWATER as a Cabinet and in their respective domains. The chief financial officer is not only charged with managing Florida’s tax revenues, disbursements and borrowing, he’s the state’s top regulator over the banking and insurance industries. The agriculture commisPUTNAM sioner oversees more than cattle and citrus; he’s the state’s chief consumer protector and regulates anything connected to the growing, distribution and handling of food. He also regulates fuels and pesticides. In CFO Jeff Atwater and Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam, both Republicans, Floridians have two of the most competent people to have occupied their positions in a quarter century. Atwater is a former bank president from North Palm Beach. He rose from vice mayor there to become a state representative and eventually Florida Senate president from 2008 to 2010. His great-grandfather, Napoleon Broward, was Florida’s governor from 1905 to 1909. Atwater’s opponent, Democrat Will Rankin, is an Army veteran and former chief asset manager for the state of Ohio. A former Republican, Rankin lives in Deerfield Beach. Agriculture Commissioner Putnam, 40, has been a political meteor in Florida ever since being elected to the Florida House of Representatives in 1996 at age 22. At age 26, the fifth-generation Bartow native was elected to Congress, where he rose to the No. 3 position in the Republicancontrolled House. Coming back to his roots, Putnam ran for agriculture commissioner in 2010. Given his family’s agriculture background and his legislative experience, few are more suited for the state’s agriculture commissioner, and he has been living up to expecations. Send him back for a second term. Recommendation: Atwater and Putnam

On the Ormond Beach ballot ... Who are the best candidates to lead our community? It’s our duty as citizens to vote and participate in the process, and we have our own recommendations for readers to consider as they sort things out in their minds.
REPRESENTATIVE IN CONGRESS, DISTRICT 6
Democrat David Cox is a former school teacher and now is the director of resources at BethuneCookman University, according to his website, helping students “navigate their first year of college.” This is admirable, but it’s tough to compare his preparation to that of Ron DeSantis. DE SANTIS DeSantis, the Republican incumbent, earned his law degree from Harvard and is a decorated U.S. Navy veteran. He’s an author and has served in the U.S. House of Representatives for the past two years. On the issues, Cox mentions this on his website: “Investing in affordable housing, smart growth, and infrastructure are a few of the important steps needed to strengthen urban communities of America.” This philosophy of the role of government is in stark contrast with that of DeSantis, who sees the ideal as a limited government that protects our rights. According to his website, DeSantis was rated the No. 1 “taxpayer hero” in Florida by Citizens Against Government Waste. DeSantis is off to a strong start in Washington, and we see a bright future.
STATE REPRESENTATIVE, DISTRICT 25
He will make conservative District 6 voters proud for years to come. Recommendation: DeSantis
STATE SENATOR, DISTRICT 6
We are stuck in a bad situation. State Sen. John Thrasher is likely to become the next president of Florida State University, but he will not officially be offered the job until after the Board of Governors makes a final vote, and that won’t happen until after the Nov. 4 election. THRASHER Therefore, he is planning to continue his bid to be re-elected to the senate. If he is successful and then vacates the seat to become FSU president, a special election would be necessary, for what some are estimating to cost up to $1 million. Another option would have been to keep Thrasher’s name on the ballot but replace him with another Republican candidate, who would then receive all his votes and likely win in this heavily Republican district. The best outcome at this point is to start the process over and have a special election in which the Republicans have a chance to come up with a legitimate candidate. As the St. Augustine Record put it: “We’ll have a special election that will cost money. What we’ll get in return is an election rather than what would, in effect, have been a coronation of the Republican candidate we did not select.” It’s bad timing all around. But we’ll keep our support with Thrasher and keep our eyes on the special election. Recommendation: Thrasher
In 2012, when Fred Costello was serving as a state representative, he was honored as that year’s recipient of the Defender of Home Rule Award. In a story on capitalsoup.com, Florida League of Cities Legislative Director Scott Dudley stated: “Representative Costello COSTELLO is a true friend to local governments. He is a staunch supporter of allowing the level of government closest to the people make the decisions that affect the quality of life of the citizens they have been elected to represent.” This is the kind of candidate we can feel good about supporting. Residents of Ormond Beach should be able to control their destiny as much as possible, and this is what Costello believes in, as well. He also is an advocate for freedom of choice with regard to education. Opponent Noel Bickford is also an Ormond resident. (There is no incumbent in this race.) Her platform includes support of public schools, but that support shouldn’t come at the expense of more freedom of choice for families, some of whom may feel trapped in their public school environments. Moreover, Bickford doesn’t have one important item on her resume, and that’s prior success as a state legislator, which Costello has. Recommendation: Costello
ORMOND BEACH CITY COMMISSION, ZONE 2
Ormond Beach will have this race on their Nov. 4 ballots, but the city commissioner who comes from that zone will vote on matters that impact all of the city. Challenger Dann Dragone has worked hard to educate himself on the issues. But his experience doesn’t match that of incumbent Troy Kent. Kent has served well for 11 years. He has been part of a governing body that reduced its total employees from 426 to 363 and kept the city’s tax rate at the third-lowest out of 16 Volusia County cities. Moreover, Kent is a passionate advocate for Ormond Beach’s beach access. He showed courage by standing up to the county and helping to secure beach access at the Milsap Approach. Kent is a lifelong KENT Ormond resident who is only half joking when he says he doesn’t like to leave the city limits. He also keeps in touch with residents’ needs by hosting monthly meetings at his house, open to anyone who wants to show up. Recommendation: Kent
OTHER CANDIDATES
Before the primary, we endorsed Kathy Weston to be elected to the 7th Judicial Circuit, Group 20. We also endorsed Joyce Cusack for the County Council At Large seat. We still support these candidates in the general election.

CORNER
Oct. 7
Oct. 10
Suspect tracked down 4:52 p.m. — 1500 Block of West Granada Boulevard. Shoplifting. The employee said she watched the three suspects come into the store and appear to shop. She watched them for two hours, and then they walked up to the self-checkout. They had several clothing items and DVDs. They appeared to be ringing up the items properly, but she couldn’t see clearly. When they were done, she cross-referenced their receipt to the number of items in the cart, and found that they only rang up half of the items. The employee followed them out to the parking lot where they got into a car and drove away. The police officer used their tag number to determine the owner of the car. The officer was able to pull up the driver’s license of the owner, and found that it looked like the person that appeared on the store security tape. A deputy located the owner of the car at the registered address. A photo lineup is planned.
Oct. 10
Yard burglarized 10:31 a.m. — First Block of Tam O Shanter Lane. Burglary. The victim said that some time the night before, someone forced entry into his backyard, damaging the gate and fence, and stole a green blowup alien from the yard. The fence gate had been screwed shut, due to a prior incident. The night before, he saw a male standing in the street looking at the house, but he did not think anything of it.
Watch for accidents 10:33 a.m. — 100 Block of West Granada Boulevard. Information. The victim said that while at the intersection of Clyde Morris Boulevard and Hand Avenue, his vehicle made contact with the car in front of him. He believes the suspect backed into him. At the time of the crash, neither car was damaged and no persons made complaint of injury or pain. A crash report was not createed, but the drivers exchanged information. Several months later, the victim received a letter from his insurance company, which advised that the suspect had filed a lawsuit against the company for injuries received in the crash. The victim did research, and discovered that the suspect has been involved in several accidents where she sued the opposing insurance company. The victim was advised to inform his insurance company of his beliefs and to file a complaint with the National Insurance Crime Bureau. The case was turned over to criminal investigations.
Oct. 12
kitchen window screen pried off and lying on the ground. The frame was bent. No entry was made to the home. The officer dusted for fingerprints with negative results. A neighbor said they saw vehicle parked at an abandoned house down the street that night at 1:30 a.m. There is a trail beside the house where many people pass.
ately or a warrant would be issued for her arrest. The victim told the caller she would call back after notifying her accountant. The caller tried to talk him out of calling her accountant, saying it was her fault, not her accountant’s. The officer called the number, but the message said the person was unavailable.
Oct. 13
Man signed up for Social Security
Neighbor blames neighbor 7:57 p.m. — 100 Block of Cambridge Court. Burglary of Conveyance. The victim said she left her purse in her unlocked car on the passenger’s seat and last saw it at 7 a.m. that day. It contained two debit cards and other items. A neighbor came to her house and told her that another neighbor, the suspect, took her purse and used the debit cards to make purchases at a store in Daytona Beach. The victim was suspicious about the neighbor’s involvement, because she knew a lot about the thefts and what items were purchased. When confronted, the suspect denied taking the purse, but she said three male friends visiting her had taken it. The victim remembered seeing her on the property the day before the purse was missing, but the suspect said she was looking for her cat. No fingerprints were found on the car.
Oct. 14
Dog barks for a reason
Another phony IRS call
11:09 a.m. — 500 Block of Hand Avenue. Burglary. The victim said that about 3 a.m., her dog started barking. She and her husband did not go outside and did not hear anything the rest of the night. The next morning, she found the

5:56 p.m. — 700 Block of East River Oak Drive. Fraud. The victim said he recently received paperwork in the mail from the Social Security office thanking him for using their website to set up an account. He said he has never been on the website and never applied for benefits. He is currently 61 years old and has a full-time job. He called Social Security and had a block put on the account.
Oct. 15
Vandalism and burglary related? 7:56 a.m. — 600 Block of East Ridgewood Avenue. Burglary of Conveyance. The victim’s husband said that after midnight he heard a loud noise come from the front of his home. At 7 a.m., he went outside and found a mailbox at the edge of his driveway. It appeared dilapidated and unusual. A search of the area did not reveal where the mailbox belonged. Around the corner, another mailbox was found in pieces. Upon entering her car that morning, the victim found that she had forgotten to lock her car doors and someone had rifled through the contents. Missing was a backpack containing gym clothes, but it was found in the yard. It is not known if the mailbox incident was related to the burglary.

Brandt Williams is a star at Father Lopez Catholic High School. He’s been a starter on the football team since his freshman year. Although Williams has a busy school and football schedule, he still finds time to volunteer during the spring with Daytona’s 8-on-8 youth football league. Williams lends his football knowledge to the kids, developing their techniques and helping them handle tough losses. “I’ve been playing football all my life, and I love to be around the game,” he said. Williams has a little brother, Andrew Plummer, who also plays in
the league that he volunteers with. “I like the fact that he’s playing football and staying out of trouble,” Williams said. “We play the same position, so I’m always telling him what he did right and wrong on certain plays.” Whenever his brother’s team experiences a tough loss, Williams says that he tells them to use their loss as a means to make the team stronger. During his freshman season in 2012, when the Green Wave was 3-0, Williams suffered a collarbone injury that sidelined him the remainder of the year. “It was disappointing,” Williams said. “The

Brandt Williams scored both of Father Lopez’s touchdowns in the fourth quarter against Maclay. coaches and I thought it would only have me out for two to three weeks, but it turned out to be the entire year.” After recovering from his injury, Williams began to work on his game, and he returned back to the field, where he has
continued to perform at a high level. “Williams is a high-energy, high-character guy,” coach Jason Dunlap said. “He’s the one who makes plays for us. When we didn’t have anything going in the game, we just put him at quarterback
and ran the ball.” Williams rushed for 100 yards in Father Lopez’s loss against Maclay Friday, Oct. 17. “Everyone on the team respects and loves him,” Dunlap said. “It’s a joy to watch him on and off the field.”
FATHER LOPEZ LOSES HOMECOMING TO MACLAY
Father Lopez’s offense took too long to get into the game, and the Green Wave was defeated by the Maclay Marauders 17-14 Friday, Oct. 17, at Alumni Stadium. The Green Wave’s offense didn’t cross the 50-yard line until the third quarter, and they fumbled doing so. They gave up the ball three times to the Marauders, fumbling twice and throwing an interception in the fourth quarter. Father Lopez (3-4, 1-1) managed to score on two touchdowns in the last eight minutes of the game, both 10-yard runs by Brandt Williams. On both drives, Williams did most of the work on the ground. The Green Wave threw the ball just once on the two scoring drives, which led to the draining of the clock at the end of the game. Father Lopez’s defense, on the other hand, played exceptional. They sacked Maclay’s quarterback an astounding 11 times. Those who contributed
Michael Cain and Adelina Feuerbacher were crowned as the Father Lopez 2014 homecoming king and queen. to their sack total were Hogan Wilder; Micah Mirino; C.J Williams (3); Roman Mack (4); who also had a fumble recovery; Zach Polans; and Juwan Ross. “The defense was phenomenal,” coach Jason Dunlap added. “John Cheney does a good job with those boys. They spent too much time on the field. Too many dropped
passes killed us tonight.” Father Lopez will play Seffner Christian Friday, Oct. 24, at Alumni Stadium. The 2014 Father Lopez homecoming court were seniors Adelina Feuerbacher and Michael Cain. Right: Josh Spencer looks downfield for an open receiver.

An Annual Celebration was held Oct. 20, by Ormond Beach MainStreet.
I
t’s been quite the year for Ormond Beach MainStreet. In addition to improving the city’s downtown district, the organization has hosted numerous events and brought back to life some truly missed festivals. MainStreet went over some of its biggest highlights at its Annual Celebration Oct. 20 at the Ormond Memorial Art Museum. “Getting the median project completed downtown, that was a big one,” President Rich Cooper said. “We also had some great events this year. We brought back Taste of Ormond, which we haven’t had in several years. It was a big success.” Cooper named the Celtic Festival, the Riverfest and the first Granada Grand Arts Festival as some of the organizations most successful events. MainStreet also used some of its grant projects to update the downtown area. And there’s more of that to come in the future. “The city approved in their budget to do some engineering and feasibility studies for lighting up the Granada Bridge,” Cooper said. “Some indirect lighting that would light up the bridge in different colors. We’d like to be the first in the area to really do that.” During the celebration, the organization presented some of its successes from the past year: — 40,000 people attended the group’s events — 5 Building Improvement Grants totaling more than $185,000 were adjudicated by MainStreet’s Design Committee — 3 Marketing Grants were given to new businesses — More than $40,000 spent to market the downtown area — Over 8,000 volunteer hours were logged by MainStreet’s board members and event volunteers. — 2,500 subscribers received a monthly calendar of downtown events The organization also revealed its new logo and website that features an interactive downtown map for shopping and dining, and an interactive real estate map showing available downtown properties.

after midnight By Emily Blackwood | Community Editor
Tomoka Lights: UFOs or just swamp gas? Longtime Ormond Beach residents are still debating the cause behind this abnormal, local phenomenon. Suzanne Heddy, executive director of the Ormond Beach Historical Society, remembers driving on North Beach Street up to Tomoka State Park in the 1960s, hopes of spotting the Tomoka Lights. “As the road goes into the canopy of trees, we would turn off our headlights,” Heddy said. “The first time I saw them, as the car approached they separated in two and went around the car and reformed behind the car. The second time I saw them, they formed in front of the car and went over the car together.” Heddy describes the lights as round, white and smaller than car headlights. “There was a lot of speculation as to what it was,” Heddy said. “Nobody ever really knew what it was. Of course, the most obvious answer was aliens, but other people discounted it as swamp gas. I find that hard to believe because they weren’t reflective lights.” Heddy’s sightings occurred in the 1960s, which is around the same time Assistant Manager of Tomoka State Park Joe Isaacs said the bridge going over the Tomoka River was rebuilt. “The Tomoka Lights are a local lure that has kind of disappeared due to changes in the highway,” Isaacs said. “There used to be a luminescent glow that would bounce headlights back at people. The new bridge was built, I believe, in 1961, and that changed the trajectory of the headlights

Legend has it that if you drive up North Beach Street past midnight, the Tomoka Ghost Lights might appear. going out over the marsh. It was the end of the Tomoka Lights.” Though Isaacs said there haven’t been any sightings that he’s aware of, people still drive up around midnight in hopes of seeing the ghost lights. “There are a whole bunch of versions about the lights,” Isaacs said. “There’s one person that says if the lights make contact with you, it would eat your flesh. It’s a
little gory. Locals say that a young couple that were parked on the side of the road were involved in an accident and died and they are a part of the haunting now.” Isaacs doesn’t want to “bum out” any believers, but he’s doesn’t think the Tomoka Lights are around anymore. “I don’t want to be a naysayer, but I’ve lived here in the park for 30 years, and I’ve never seen them,” Isaacs said. “I think ev-
ery town in the world probably has a legend like this.” According the website WeirdUS.com, a travel guide for local legends and best kept secrets, the Tomoka Lights are just a part of the story. Between 1955 and 1966, there were reports of people encountering a strange pink cloud that hung low to the ground in the woods along the Tomoka River. It was blamed for the disappearance of dozens of people, though no names were mentioned on the website. A few anonymous locals wrote on the website and said the cloud was carnivorous. “It would devour your body if you got too close to it,” a local named Jimbo wrote. “It was not always there but many deer hunters came upon it during deer season. No one knows what it was. Some said it was swamp gas and some said it was old Chief Tomokie protecting his happy hunting grounds. I don’t think anyone has seen it since about 1965. That whole area is now built up with new homes.” Though there’s no scientific proof to the Carnivorous Cloud or the Tomoka Lights, the locals still like to believe. “You couldn’t guarantee that you’d see them,” Heddy said. “You have to take a chance. So to see them twice in my lifetime is pretty amazing.” — Email emily@ormondbeachobserver. com.
THE MASTER OF WEIRD By Emily Blackwood | Community Editor
Author of ‘Weird Florida’ hosts paranormal night at MOAS Ever since Charlie Carlson was a boy, he’s had an interest in all things weird and wacky. Charlie Carlson has been two things in his life: a soldier and a showman. After retiring from the Army, he joined the circus and found his place entertaining people. “Since I’ve left the Army, I’ve done nothing but show business,” Carlson said. “I haven’t had a dull moment.” During his career as an entertainer, he also wrote Florida history books. That’s when he stumbled upon his interest for the strange. “In the process of doing research, I kept running across reports on the front pages of newspapers where people were reporting haunted places and monsters in the oceans,” Carlson said. “I wondered how much truth there was to it. Combine that
with my grandmother who professed to be a medium that could talk to the dearly departed, and I became interested in writing a book on Florida’s strange stuff.” Carlson published his first book called, “Strange Florida,” in 1997. “Though I had written four or five history books, this one book sold 7,000 copies right off the bat,” Carlson said. “It kind of shows us that we’re intrigued by mysteries and things that we can’t explain. We don’t even want to solve them. We’d rather have them to remain unexplained because if you solve the mystery you take the fun out of it.” “Strange Florida” caught the eye of the publishers of “Weird USA,” a travel guide based on local legends and folk tales.

ter contributing to their main series, they asked him to write “Weird Florida.” “I didn’t want to compete against myself because I had my other book,” Carlson said. “But when someone tells you they’re going to pay you to travel across the state and find weird things, you can’t beat a job like that.” Carlson’s career grew to include acting in movies such as “Curse of the Blair Witch” and hosting his own PBS show, “Weird Florida: Roads Less Traveled.” “You’re driving and you see this thing on the side of the road,” Carlson said. “It looks weird but you don’t stop to find out what it is. But you pass by it every day. So it was time to stop and see what some of this weird stuff was.” His career makes

CRT PRESENTS ‘ONE FLEW OVER THE CUKOO’S NEST’ City Repertory Theatre will open “One Flew Over the Cukoo’s Nest” for a nine show run Oct. 24.
W
hen most people hear “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” they think of the 1975 motion picture staring Jack Nicholson. But City Repertory Theatre Director John Sbordone said that it’s important to remember that it was originally a brilliant novel written by Ken Kesey in 1962. “This is a classic,” Sbordone said. “I don’t know about this generation, but certainly my generation and other generations.” The novel was adapted into a play by Dale Wasserman in 1963 and ran for 83 performances on Broadway. Now, the company at City Repertory Theatre is putting their own spin on it for a nine-performance run opening Oct. 24. “It’s a brilliant novel that depicts a major archetypal battle in society about the forces of conformity and the forces that are always trying to make things better for the world,” Sbordone said. The cast is headlined by Eric Bohus as McMurphy, Sue Pope as Nurse Ratchet or Big Nurse, and Anthony Felton, as Chief Bromden. Bohus has appeared on Broadway in the Tony Award-nominated “Grand Hotel” off Broadway in “Grapes of Wrath” and “Fire Girl.” He has also toured in
several national and regional tours. “One Flew Over the Cukoo’s Nest” is Bohus’ Flagler County stage debut. Pope was last seen at CRT in “Twilight,” playing four different characters. More recently, she has appeared in “Other Desert Cities” and “The Last Romance” at the Limelight Theatre. In addition to being an actor, Felton is also a playwright and songwriter. He conceived, wrote and performed an original play, “Still I Weep,” and has been seen on stage at CRT in “Race.” Felton is also a Take Stock in Children mentor and a founding member of the City Lites musical production Motown & Mo. The cast is rounded out by Richard Nowell, Josh Fagundes, John Birney, Harold Salkin, Frank Anello, Ken Flanagan, Val Betts, Christina Goodin, Adrienne Betts, Sbordone, Peggy Jones and Sarah Hoyt. “We have an extraordinary actor playing McMurphy and the supporting cast is really strong,” Sbordone said.
Sue Pope, as Big Nurse, addresses Eric Bohus, as McMurphy.
IF YOU GO What: “One Flew Over the Cukoo’s Nest” When: 7:30 p.m. Oct. 24, 25, 31, Nov. 1, 7 and 8; and 2 p.m. Oct. 26 and Nov. 2 Where: City Repertory Theatre, 160 Cypress Point Parkway, Palm Coast Tickets: $20 for adults, $15 for students. Call 585-9415.
