urricane season is in full swing. In the wake of Hurricane Dorian and its heartbreaking devastation in the Bahamas (and with memories of Irma in mind), we saw some leave the Keys to ensure safety even without mandatory evacuation notice. For those who did decide to “ride out the storm,” there was a much earlier reaction at the gas pumps, grocery stores and hardware retailers. With evacuation in mind, we asked:

What are the three things you can’t leave without?

STEPHANIE GALLAHER FAMILY NURSE PRACTITIONER

“I’d pack a box of toys to keep my son Andy entertained, grab his memory box from when he was a newborn, including some hand and footprint artwork hanging in his room, and our Christmas ornament collection.” — Nichole Matangos

“Sentimental stuff like my grandmother’s jewelry and vases that has been passed down to me, photo albums with pics I haven’t scanned electronically and essential paper work.” — Christina Laza

“My mini book collection- I would take paper books over digital books any day.

My MacBook and my bike because riding helps with stress and makes me feel oh so good!” — Malika Delgado

“My dog, my car and I suppose my husband ... I’ll need him to drive!” — Tanya Lusain

“1.My book because what the hell else would I do while my kids play on electronics? 2. All the snacks. See #1.

3. Jeans. Cause I love ‘em and surely it’ll be cooler wherever I go.” — Kellie Niles

ey West is out of the rollback we’ve been in for the last several years — in other words, the property tax millage rate is finally increasing. The city commission voted 5-2 (with Commissioners Jimmy Weekley and Dennis Wardlow dissenting) to adopt the ad valorem tax general municipal millage rate of 2.1535 mills (which essentially just means property tax is going to be 3.5% higher than rollback, which is what we

were operating on in 2018-2019). The tentative budget was approved by the commission 6-1, with only Wardlow dissenting. The tentative budget is set at $186,883,485 for the 2019-2020 fiscal year.

Mayor Teri Johnston’s administration has been taxed with (so to speak) the pressure to keep property taxes low while also finding the money for street repair and other infrastructure concerns.

“Rollback is to bring in the same amount of money we did last year, and all of our goods and services have

gone up,” said Johnston. “Our streets are an abomination, and our sidewalks are crumbling.” Duval Street hasn’t been invested in since 1976. The city is soon bringing in an urban planner to help design a plan for Duval Street in the way that the city developed the Truman Waterfront.

In the meantime, the city has to account for the costs. Johnston advocates policies better target costs toward residents who benefit.

“Here’s our philosophy,” said Johnston. “We are trying to move from a general budget, to user budgeting.

If you use this, you need to pay for it.”

Johnston said that some 40% of Key West residents walk or ride a bike instead of driving, and there isn’t reason for them to cover the cost of cars. The commission was to vote on Sept. 4 on whether to approve 80 metered parking spaces along Smathers Beach and 49 by the Casa Marina (they had not voted at press time).

Johnston was pleased with the over $4 million allotted in the budget for streets. The city has conducted an analysis of the conditions of the streets and will prioritize based on that. “This may be a situation where we need to bond some money so that we can take care of these things right now,” said Johnston. “Historically, we have saved up, but that’s what has allowed some of our capital projects to have fallen into disrepair.”

The tentative budget lists new and increased revenue sources to the general fund at $1,917,300, including new sources like charges for beach weddings, as well as parking at the courthouse and Smathers Beach. The tentative budget is available on the city website under “Documents.” Some highlights: $ 1.9 million for the Transportation Alternative Fund, $940,000 for the Truman Waterfront Fund and $1.3 million to pre-construction costs for the affordable housing project on College Road.

Dr. Shavonne Corbet from the Keys Animal Hospital has some clues along with advice: One of the big ones is the time of the day to exercise and walk your pet.

Panting is always a reference that your dog or cat is hot, but it’s sometimes hard to determine whether the pet is overheated. During the brutal Florida summers, to see a pet owner on a bike, exercising a dog on a leash in the middle of the day, is an absolute no-no!

Dogs pant to relieve the heat and regulate their body temperature. They can go from hot to overheated very quickly, without people realizing that it’s happening. The rapid rise of body temperature may cause organ failures, they can develop blood clotting – abnormalities that, if not treated, may turn out to be lethal. Overheating could also cause respiratory crisis, which I have seen happen here a number of times already.

If the pet is a little overheated and requires just home care, take it to a cool place immediately and give cool – not icy – water for drinking and saturating their body. A pool and hosing down are also good options. Do not use ice-cold water because it shuts down the blood vessels in the outer body and the blood pushed inward makes them even hotter.

The paw pads of your pets can get burned on hot surfaces and may blister.

Test the surfaces that have been heated by midday sun with your hand before letting your dog or cat to walk on them. If you cannot comfortably lay your hand on the ground, be it asphalt or your deck, then it’s too hot for them.

Even friendly-looking composite decks can be very hot.

A final note on shaving: Many people feel strongly that certain breeds (Alaskan breeds, for example) should never be shaved because their heavy coat naturally provides a barrier to the heat. Interestingly, while I’ve found a lot of strong opinions shared online on the matter, there are no scientific studies that have been performed to evaluate whether this is actually true. Anecdotally, I’ve heard from a number of dog owners that their heavy coated dogs seem more comfortable after a short groom (not too short as they are more prone to sunburn).

My name is Shavonne and I’m a DVM at the Keys Animal Hospital. I also work with the incredible team at SNIP (Spay Neuter In Paradise) to provide low-cost sterilization surgeries for animals in the Keys. I share my home with four cats and my main squeeze, Benny, (my crazy haired terrier). When I’m not working you can find me at the beach with my pup or paddleboarding.

A COMMUNITY ASSET RETURNS TLC OVERCOMES OBSTACLES TO REOPEN

T

he Learning Center of Key West lives up to its acronym, TLC. For years, CEO, founder and acting director Pam Lopez and her staff have worked tirelessly to create a nurturing environment for young children. The center, which has become a community asset, was forced to close briefly last spring as the organization searched for a new home. Fortunately, they found it at 201 Truman Ave., and TLC reopened in June. This past weekend, the center hosted a public Back to School Reopening Party, letting everyone know that they are up and running — and stronger than ever.

The Learning Center exists in Key West to “prepare our children with the skills and experiences needed to become productive citizens, by providing a safe, nurturing, loving and enriched environment.” Unfortunately, as is the case for so many nonprofits in Key West, the cost and uncertainty of real estate became an insurmountable obstacle to operations. TLC’s former home was situated on property owned by the Monroe County School District. The Monroe County School Board had considered selling the property, prompting them to offer a truncated lease to TLC. “We eventually had it for only 90 days at a time,” said Lopez. For a center tasked with providing year-round childcare for children who are not yet school aged, the timeline was not sustainable. Forced to find other op-

tions, Lopez turned to J. Manuel Castillo Sr., executive director of the Housing Authority of the City of Key West. Castillo led Lopez to a picture-perfect space in Bahama Village and helped the center secure it for a reasonable fee. “He identified a property that worked for everyone involved. We cleaned up 201 Truman, raised a little money, and The Learning Center moved in there,” said Lopez.

Lopez, like so many educators, comes across as a master of modesty, making her herculean leaps sound like everyday paperwork. She does concede that the time between the Feb. 28 closing of the former space and the June 10 opening of the new space was filled with red tape. When an educational center shuts down and reopens, it must reopen as an entirely new facility, even if it’s the same entity, same name, same staff. For Lopez, this meant reapplying for insurance, permits, fire marshal approvals and — most importantly — a state childcare facility license. Due diligence ensured all the necessary pieces were secured, allowing the center to move forward. Fundraising was its own separate challenge. TLC needed to raise $7,500 for a fire alarm system and $3,500 to fence in the playground area, in addition to general moving and renovation costs. “If not for the amazing generosity of several people and local companies, TLC would never have made it,” said Lopez.

A true local success story, by the time TLC’s Back to School night rolled around, the center could say that its infant room and 1-year-old room were both already full.

The center is one of the few in the area to provide care for infants. By providing care to children aged 6 weeks to 3 years, TLC offers exponential assistance to the community by allowing parents to return to work.

Lopez is no doubt letting out a sigh of relief as TLC celebrates its return. “It’s a win-win for everyone. A small nonprofit. A small staff. It’s the greatest thing in town. I’d just love for everybody in Key West who has small children to stop by and see the center.

To see it is to love it.”

KEYS COLLECT FOR BAHAMIANS

HELP IS ON THE WAY

Coast Guard Cutters William Trump (WPC-1111) and Robert Yered (WPC-1104) are moored side by side, along with multiple other Sector Miami and Sector Key West cutters in Key West, Florida Monday, Sept. 2, 2019 in preparation for Hurricane Dorian response efforts in the Caribbean and Bahamas areas. PETTY OFFICER 2ND CLASS JONATHAN LALLY/U.S. Coast Guard

“A

s soon as the seas calm down.”

Keys locals who are collecting emergency supplies for the citizens of the Bahamas plan to make the crossing just as soon as it’s safe to navigate.

“I’ve been in contact with a lot of people and the devastation from Hurricane Dorian is terrible,” said Don Horton of the Upper Keys Rotary Club. As of this writing, the storm has been parked over the Bahamas for two days — 48 hours — with winds ranging from 120 mph to 185 mph.

The Weekly is keeping a running list of giving opportunities, with an emphasis on local organizations. If you know of others, please email sara@keysweekly.com.

— Weekly staff report UPPER KEYS ROTARY CLUB Horton of the Upper Keys Rotary Club was on the mainland on Sept. 2. He bought $10,000 worth of hurricane recovery supplies from a warehouse store. On faith.

“We are going to collect monetary donations from all the Rotary Clubs in District 6990,” Horton said. “We do a lot better with the funds because we can buy in bulk, have the goods shrink-wrapped and get them on the boat faster.” The plan is to fill four 20-foot shipping containers immediately.

Already one is stationed in the Keys, another is on the way, and two are on the mainland.

“As soon as the weather clears, we’re headed over.” He said he isn’t exactly sure where, but the goods will be loaded aboard a 181foot yacht designed to carry expensive toys (helicopter, plane) on the open aft deck. The

yacht’s owner has said he will make the ship available for repeated trips.

There will be a Rotary trailer stationed at the Tavernier Winn-Dixie soon. will also be collecting In the meantime, locals can donate to the Upper Keys Rotary Club (keysrotary.club) or to the Robbins Fund of the Rotary District (rotary6990.org) that covers South Florida. Both websites will have a donation button activated shortly, or donations can be mailed to addresses on the website.

All donations are tax-deductible.

THE ROTARY CLUB OF KEY LARGO SUNSET The Rotary Club of Key Largo Sunset will be collecting non-perishable goods and monetary donations for the victims of Hurricane Dorian in the Bahamas all day Wednesday and Thursday (Sept. 4 -5) at the Publix Key Largo parking lot from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. on both days. The Sunset Club is working in conjunction with the Rotary Club of the Upper Keys in collecting and transporting these donations up to District 6990 in Miami where they will be shipped to the Bahamas this week.

FLORIDA KEYS MASONIC LODGE 336 The Masonic Lodge, located at 284 Tavernier St. in Tavernier, is collecting items to be distributed by the Masonic Lodge in the Bahamas. The lodge is accepting donations through Thursday, Sept. 5 at 5 p.m. Items being accepted include personal care products like soap and shampoo, health care products like rubbing alcohol, ibuprofen and baby Benadryl, paper products, canned goods, blankets, batteries, gas containers, tarps,

tents and tools, among other items. For a full list of items, visit the Florida Keys Lodge No. 336 F&AM’s Facebook page.

The Masonic Lodges in Marathon (on 89th Street), and on Big Coppitt Key at (MM 11) are also collecting donations.

TWO CONCHS Capt. Jack Carlson has partnered with Swagger Fishing out of Boca Raton to make some runs aboard a 39-foot sportfisherman, capable of running over and back without the need to refuel.

“We’ve put collection boxes in the Marathon Publix grocery store, Overseas Pub and Grill and Keys Federal Credit Union branches.

“We’re going to take the supplies up in the Two Conch trucks and stage them in Boca Raton. It’s only an 80-mile run from there to the Bahamas,” he said. “We plan to make several trips in the first couple of days.”

Carlson said he feels for the Bahamas.

“This is worse than Irma. The islands are getting hammered, they are losing everything.”

HEADKNOWLES This Bahamian-lead relief organization has the endorsement of Monroe County Long-Term Recovery Group. “If you are interested in helping the Bahamas, this organization has a track record for excellent hurricane relief activities in the island nation.”

Named after founders Lia Head-Rigby and Gina Knowles, the organization was formed in 2015 in the wake of Hurricane Joaquin. The organization was also active through the 2016 and 2017 hurricane seasons.

GIVING

KEY WEST WEEKLY / SEPTEMBER 05, 2019

On littlehousebytheferry. com, Head-Rigby said the organization’s main focus will be supplying tarps and generators, evacuating people with medical or other urgent needs, and helping schools to return to normal as soon as possible.

Again, cash donations allow the charity the flexibility to adapt to changing needs.

Visit the HeadKnowles’ GoFundMe page.

BRUTUS SEAFOOD On Friday, Sept. 13, Brutus Seafood will donate 10% of the day’s sales to the families in the Bahamas affected by Hurricane Dorian.

“We’ll give the funds to an appropriate and reputable relief agency,” said owner Elise Mucha. “Of course, we welcome any and all businesses or personal contributions to match as well.” Mucha said Main Attraction Fishing charters has already jumped on board to offer a sales percentage of the day’s take.

Brutus will also be collecting specific items (first aid, personal hygiene, soaps, and shampoo) for the next two weeks or so to send over once the initial wave of help clears the way. “Any items in those categories are welcome so we can make individual bags to be easily given out,” she said.

BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY The Big Pine Key office of Berkshire Hathaway Real Estate is collecting durable goods (no clothing, please) at 30362 Overseas Highway, next to Napa. Drop offs can be made between the hours of 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

They have published a list of things that might be needed including heavy-duty trash bags, batteries, extension cords, paper goods, shelf-stable food including baby food, first aid items, tarps, tents, towels, personal hygiene items, and tools like staple guns, shovels and totes.

For more information, contact Michele at 305-849-1270 or Hunter at 305-735-4962.

KEY WEST CARES This group of public officials and private citizens has banded together to aid the Bahamas, in particular Key West’s sister city Green Turtle Cay. Bishop John Carey of Glad Tidings Tabernacle, who was born in the Bahamas, and Jim Gilleran, longtime local and owner of 801 Bourbon, have helped organize and begin relief efforts. They’ve teamed up with local rum distiller and chef Paul Menta, who is running the Key West Cares Facebook page (check for updates). The group met Sept. 4 at City Hall to organize supplies and transit to the Bahamas, and there will be a benefit concert at Key West Theater on Sept. 14.

“We are creating a donations list and looking for places to store donations,” said Mayor Teri Johnston. “We are just trying to coordinate our efforts to be as useful as we can for those folks.”

U.S. COAST GUARD On Sept. 2, 23 Coast Guard cutters gathered in Key West to prepare to be deployed for Hurricane Dorian relief in the Bahamas. The Military Times reports that four MH-60 Jayhawk rescue helicopters also made medevac runs to March Harbor in the Bahamas’ Abaco Islands on Monday to evacuate at least 19 people. The cutters plan to deploy with supplies and relief workers after an initial assessment of damage.

BLUE OCEAN YACHT CHARTERS Blue Ocean is accepting donations in forms of monetary donations and specific goods.

Blue Ocean will help ensure that all monetary amounts are tracked and people receIve confirmation that 100% of those donations will be going towards supplies, fuel and entry fees. Any fiscal overflow will go directly towards a charity fund for relief for citizens of the Abacos and Grand Bahamas Island. More information on Blue Ocean’s Facebook and Gofundme page “Blue Ocean Official Bahamian Donation Run.”

ith the help and advice of our community members in the armed forces, we at Keys Weekly are proud to present our Military Spotlight.

Daniel Nobile E-3 COAST GUARD USCGC MOHAWK Why did you join the military? I joined the military to travel and gain experience.

Also, in order to gain knowledge and skills that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

What is your job at your unit and why is it important?

I’m a fireman on board CGC MOHAWK. I work in the auxiliary machinery department, and we perform repairs and daily preventive maintenance on most of the ship’s systems.

Some of those systems are the ACs, potable water, reefers, etc.

We’re important to the ship because we prevent system casualties and keep the ship in a safe working atmosphere.

How many years have you been in military? How many years at this unit? I’ve been in the military for nine months, and I’ve been aboard CGC Mohawk for six months.

Ever been to the Florida Keys or Key West before your current assignment? No

Did you chose Key West or were you just assigned here?

I was assigned here.

What were you first thoughts when hearing you were coming to the Keys? I was excited.

I knew coming down here was going to be a great experience.

What are your hobbies? I like to ride my street bike, hike and do other outdoor activities, as well as photography.

What are your favorite things to do when not on duty? My favorite things to do are travel and see new countries and gain life experience. I like to spend good quality time with my family and friends.

What do you like most about the Keys? The things I like most about Key West are the weather and the atmosphere.

Also I love that everything is in walking distance. It’s beautiful here 12 months out of the year, and the people down here are friendly.

What do you like most about your assignment? I like working on a ship and getting the opportunity to spend six months of the year out at sea. I like having the endless opportunity to learn.

What would you change about living here in Key West if you had the power to do so? I would probably add a couple more essential stores. It is a little isolated down here in the Keys, and Miami is the closest place for certain resources or items.

Any advice to give other military men and women seeking assignment here? It’s a great place to get stationed and a place I think everyone should experience at least once in their lives.

A

multi-agency team of scientists took over the tanks at Keys Marine Lab in Layton recently for coral “spawning week,” collecting coral eggs and sperm over six nights.

Corals spawn, or sexually reproduce, once a year. On Florida’s reefs, just after the August full moon, mature staghorn and elkhorn corals simultaneously release bundles of egg and sperm, allowing their gametes to mix at the surface and become freeswimming coral larvae — the seed for future reefs.

For the scientists at KML, spawning week looked a little bit different. Rather than diving in the ocean to collect gametes, the researchers camped out at KML night after night, waiting for corals to spawn in the land-based tanks.

The tanks contained 12 genotypes of staghorn and six genotypes of elkhorn corals from Coral Restoration Foundation’s Coral Tree Nursery in Tavernier. After several nights of waiting, the corals did spawn and researchers scooped up the “bundles of joy” to begin their experiments immediately in the dry lab. Gametes released at KML were easily and efficiently collected for research and rearing, and the agencies ran their experiments simultaneously. All the research aimed, in one way or another, to restore the Florida Reef Tract.

The spawning team, led by Rachel Serafin, coral biologist with Florida Aquarium (FLAQ), included researchers from KML, University of South Florida/Florida Institute of Oceanography, Georgia Aquarium, Nova Southeastern University, NOAA, SeaWorld, Southeast Zoo Alliance for Reproduction and Conservation (SEZARC), and the University of Florida. Each institution focused on a different aspect of spawning.

“We’ve lost massive portions of our coral populations,” said Serafin, “to the point where reproductive success in the wild has declined to little to none.”

This decline in the reefs has led to a very shallow gene pool where corals might only asexually reproduce by fragmentation. Craig Johnson, senior biologist at FLAQ, explained how spawning populations are too far apart for their gametes to meet in the ocean.

As a result, there are no new genotypes being created through sexual reproduction.

These researchers are combating that by playing matchmaker and bringing gametes together in the lab to create more genetic variation. This diversity creates stronger colonies and a more natural reef system, said Serafin.

Serafin’s team studied the link between fertilization rate and embryo development to learn more about what factors influence successful fertilization and coral recruit growth. Last year, FLAQ’s team used gametes from spawning at CRF’s nursery to create 1,500 new genotypes through crossbreeding. Around 3,000 individual corals from that effort were transferred back to the Center for Conservation at

FLAQ for eight months before being returned to CRF’s nursery.

This year, the FLAQ team hoped to breed and bring back 5,000 staghorn and 5,000 elkhorn recruits to raise at FLAQ. The goal, again, is to return these corals to CRF for continued growth and eventual outplanting back onto the reef. Johnson explained their work as “trying to get ahead of the extinction curve” by cross-breeding the endangered corals in house.

Other researchers focused on different methods of preserving genetic variation. SEZARC’s team cryo-froze gametes from CRF’s corals to add to their genome resource bank. Ashley O’Toole, gamete lab technician with SEZARC, explained, “These are all new genotypes we’re freezing that weren’t represented in our bank before, but now they will be.”

Cayman Adams, her colleague and research lab manager, explained how that genetic diversity was an “insurance policy” for the future in case the worst happens and populations crash.

In that case, frozen coral sperm from SEZARC’s bank could be thawed to create more genetic mixes.

2. Rachel Serafin, Kristin Anderson and Alyssa Reed watch diligently for signs of spawning in the tank at Keys Marine Lab. Coral biologists have been able to narrow down a timeframe for when corals spawn, but it still requires a few long nights of standing watch by dedicated scientists and volunteers. IAN WILSON/Keys Weekly

NOAA and the College of Charleston analyzed whether fertilization success is linked to genetic relatedness. Lisa May, laboratory manager for NOAA’s Coral Health and Disease Program, explained the bigger goal: “If we can link this science to restoration efforts, we can pick and choose which genets to restore to boost natural spawning and restore our reefs more quickly.”

A long-time researcher in coral spawning, Justin Zimmerman, aquarium supervisor at SeaWorld Orlando, described why this year’s spawning efforts had increased urgency: “Stony coral tissue loss disease in the last two

years, I realized these corals won't be around forever. It’s grim.

“That’s why we have so many people involved here,” Zimmerman said. “We need everyone to bring their expertise. The partnership makes us stronger, helps advance science, and gives the corals a better chance.”

3. Scientists from a variety of research institutions, nonprofits, private aquaria, governmental agencies and universities worked side-by-side to study various aspects of spawning.

REDA WIGLE

Barstool Astrology

Welcome to the onset of autumn, star children. Next week’s full moon falls close to the equinox, earning it the title of “harvest moon.” In addition to being an absolutely killer Neil Young track, this moon sheds light when humans have historically needed it most, during the collection of crops. Combined with the heavy influence of dark matter planet Pluto, this moon is an omen of regeneration. It asks us to admit and surrender bad habits. Primary among these are self-loathing and unsubstantiated jealousy, but it’s also a good time to give gambling, gossip, nicotine and other vices a rest.

We are still under the influence of the deeply investigative sign of Virgo. In the weeks ahead, this tendency will manifest across the zodiac as a search for meaningful conversation.

Past life regression, conspiracy theories, pointed personal questions and sacred geometry take precedence over small talk. Dig deep.

WHAT THE STARS HAVE IN STORE

ARIES March 21 to April 19 It is never what you say but how you say it, Aries. Focus on making your point without making fresh enemies.

Notable Aries: Joan Crawford TAURUS April 20 to May 20 Many of the barriers you face are self-imposed, my bull brethren. These fence posts in your pasture are born of insecurity or fear of failure. The way out is through.

Notable Taurus: Iggy Pop GEMINI May 21 to June 20 You often have trouble distinguishing between dreams and waking life.

Right now that hazy overlap is more prophecy than delusion. You are poised to be and do anything your wildest dreams can conjure.

Notable Gemini: Fetty Wap CANCER June 21 to July 22 A natural nurturer, you have a lot to give (and say) but feel put out when your well-meaning advice is ignored. Deliver your medicine by request only.

Notable Cancer: Helen Keller

LEO July 23 to August 22 Your worldview tends to be shaped by outside influence and your need for external validation can leave you striving. You are enough, sometimes too much, but always enough. I promise.

Notable Leo: Ameila Earhart VIRGO August 23 to September 22 You are a collector of secrets. Here is one for your vault, Virgo: not everyone is as emotionally intuitive as you. Your needs are most likely to be met when they are spoken clearly and out loud.

Notable Virgo: Oliver Stone LIBRA September 23 to October 22 You are prone to prioritize being liked over being an honest version of yourself.

If you stay true, the right flock will find you, and you won’t have to shortchange intimacy for company.

Notable Libra: Vladimir Putin SCORPIO October 23 to November 21 Speaking honestly about your challenges and expanding your social circle to characters with unexpected perspectives will help you on your unpaved path to greatness.

Notable Scorpio: Dylan Thomas

SAGITTARIUS November 22 to December 21 Your vast array of interests and obligations can leave you feeling energetically scattered. Pace yourself. If you try and do it all, you’re bound to fall.

Notable Sagittarius: Keith Richards CAPRICORN December 22 to January 19 Sea goats are at their best when on a quest. Now is the time to identify your personal grail and set to work swimming toward it.

Notable Capricorn: Basquiat AQUARIUS January 20 to February 18 Purge is the word. The time is high for ridding your life of lost causes and loose ends. The more space you make, the more peace you will find.

Notable Aquarius: Toni Morrison PISCES February 19 to March 20 You are acutely aware of the needs and desires of others. Remember my fish friends, this awareness does not contract you personally to fulfill those needs and desires.

Notable Pisces: Anne Bonny

ackcountry boaters in the Lower Florida Keys may notice more regulatory signs and buoys around uninhabited islands, long protected by federal agencies. Using Hurricane Irma Congressional supplemental funding, the Florida Keys National Wildlife Refuges Complex is repairing, replacing and installing the fixed regulatory signs and buoys in both the Great White Heron National Wildlife Refuge and Key West National Wildlife Refuge around 12 protection zones established by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in agreement with Florida in 1992. The areas also were designated as wildlife management areas in Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary in 1997.

These signs and buoys mark regulations existing since 1992 that remain the same today. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service identified these markings as priorities to inform the public better about existing regulations, facilitate law enforcement, and enable the Service, NOAA, and the state to optimize management of critically important and unique habitats.

Due to be completed in September, the marking project delineates several of the closed, no entry, no motor, and idle speed regulated areas from Upper Harbor Key to Boca Grande Key. For a list of marine zones and regulations, visit floridakeys.noaa. gov/zones/.

o you have an awesome proposal, project or idea that would benefit from a $1,000 boost? If yes, today could be your day. A brand-new chapter of the Awesome Foundation has been established in Key West with the sole purpose of giving money to support awesome ideas.

Not a formal foundation or not-for-profit charity, the Awesome Foundation was launched in Boston in 2009 with the mission of funding brilliant ideas. Local community development originator Michael Shields learned about the initiative and traveled to Chicago this year for the annual global AweSummit conference, with other Awesome Foundation leaders from around the world.

Inspired by possibilities, Shields set about organizing a Key West chapter.

Here’s how it works: Each month a group of “trustees” contributes in equal shares to a fund and then award $1,000 to the most awesome project proposal to apply. Many projects are novel or experimental, and evoke surprise and delight.

Key West Awesome chapter trustees are Shields, Lynne Bentley-Kemp, Amy Culver, Melissa Doucette, David Dunn, Todd Feit, Janet Hinkle, Chase Hurst, David Johnson, Bill Klipp, John O’Leary, Karen O’Leary and Quincy Perkins.

Projects eligible for funding include arts, engineering, technology, botanical – the sky’s the limit.

Entrants submit an application for the grant via the chapter’s website at awesomefoundation.org. There is no cost to apply and the $1,000 grants are no-strings-attached.

“We also have 36 applications already, and that’s only through wordof-mouth publicity,” Shields said. “I think we’ll be ready to give out the first grant mid-month.”

According to Shields, since 2009, over $4 million has been granted through 90 chapters, worldwide. Examples include a program in which children in a free camp program create a butterfly sanctuary; an organization that provides free haircuts for people in need; creation of a giant 30-person hammock; a pop-up event at which people could be filmed recreating the Indiana Jones film scene where he’s running ahead of an enormous rolling boulder; an opera written, directed and performed by grade-school children; and an artist’s “Melting Galaxies” glass marble workshop project for youth in need of a confidence boost.

The award process occurs every month and idea-makers can apply at any time to be considered for the next grant. After the trustees review all submitted applications, three finalists will be invited to meet and discuss their ideas.

Right now, the awards are Key West-centric, but that’s not to say the trustees would never consider projects elsewhere in the Keys; or, for that matter, that the Key West chapter wouldn’t inspire more Keys chapters to get organized.

To apply, visit awesomefoundation.org/en/chapters/keywest. For more information, call 305-394-3804.

’35 STORM MOST POWERFUL EVER KEY WEST HISTORY

What did official advisories look like back in the day? They were little boxes that contained weather warnings that were tossed out of planes for ship crewmen to collect.

T

he Category 5 1935 Labor Day Hurricane is still the most powerful storm ever to strike North America.

While the killer hurricane accounted for approximately 500 fatalities, the number could have been significantly higher had it not been a holiday weekend.

Fortunately, some number of the WWI veterans sent to the Upper Keys (not those building the Overseas Highway) to begin construction on a series of solid bridges capable of replacing the automobile ferries operating between Lower Matecumbe and No Name keys, had traveled to Miami or Key West to celebrate the holiday. The 1935 hurricane was also as tightly wound as the string around a spinning top. As horrors occurred in the Upper Keys during the night of that Sept. 2 event that brought 185-mph sustained winds and 18 feet of tidal surge, according to Weather Bureau documents, “Monday, September 2, 10 p.m.: Key West reported 81 degrees.

Winds out of the northwest at 34 mph. Hurricane warnings north of Everglades to Punta Gorda. Tropical disturbance of full hurricane intensity but rather small diameter central 8 p.m. near Matecumbe Key moving northwestward accompanied by shifting gales and hurricane winds near center.”

Brad Bertelli is curator of the Keys History & Discovery Center.

AMY GRANT ON THE EVERYDAY EXTRAORDINARY

To children of the ’80s and ’90s, the name “Amy Grant” evokes an immediate reaction, potentially even a few lines of the Grammy-nominated, quintupleplatinum song “Baby, Baby.” Images of a fresh-faced, curly-haired 30ish Amy Grant in cowboy boots and a white T-shirt, from the early MTV and VH1 days, come to mind. On her “Heart in Motion” album, Grant’s voice ranged from bright and girlish to having the velvety depth that continues to characterize it, moving her from her previous reputation as a Christian pop songstress into bona fide pop superstar territory.

Grant’s career — and personal life — skyrocketed into the public spotlight.

Her marriage of 20 years to Vince Gill has been the topic of countless articles and celebrity TV shows; their blended family has not only survived the scrutiny, but thrived. Now, Grant and Gill, both musical powerhouses — Grant rightly calls

her husband “freakishly gifted in music” — approach 60 (she’s 58; he’s 62) with a preternatural peace that can only come with time.

“I am going to sound like a hippy dippy grandmother,” Grant says, her voice measured, “but you can’t grasp to anything. Life is a continuum, the good and the bad. You can’t hold onto a moment; you can’t hold onto your children, because they grow up. You wake up and take a deep breath and say: ‘We are all in the big lazy river of God.” This is the first moment in a 45-minute interview that Grant, who has been called “The Queen of Christian Pop,” invokes the G-word. Her stories and insights evoke moments of divinity through the ordinary — say, while doing laundry or looking for car keys.

While Grant’s spirituality has anchored her life as a celebrity, it seems devoid of the dogma and exclusion that is often associated with modern Christianity.

“My language is less filled with religious terms, even if my understanding arrived that way,” she says. “Language can be inclusive or exclusive.” Grant tells a story illustrating her point: “I remember years ago, a lot of us were participating in a benefit with Carole King. It was for The Painted Turtle (Paul Newman’s camp for kids with serious medical conditions.” Grant narrates the pre-show commotion, everyone being “wowed by Katy Perry” during sound check and hanging around, jamming and talking. “I was looking at Carole King and thinking: ‘You are in your ’70s … and still doing this.’

Grant walked over to King. “I said, ‘Thank you for not quitting.’ As an aging artist myself, I was saying, ‘you are showing me the way.’”

King said: “I’ve tried to quit, but then I get the call.”

AMY GRANT

Key West Theater | 512 Eaton St. Sunday, Sept. 15 | Doors 7 p.m. | Show 8 p.m.

Tickets at www.keywesttheater.com

“I thought she was talking about Lou Adler, her longtime manager, and she said, ‘No, I mean the voice that comes and says ‘Keep on.’ And I said ‘Yes.’ I knew exactly what she was talking about.” She talks about flashes of inspiration or “the voice” arriving at moments when you’ve got three kids and manage to get the onion into the skillet or find the clean pair of underwear in the back of the drawer. “You build it from there,” she says.

Indeed, from the outside, Grant seems to have led a charmed life. She’s a six-time Grammy Award-winner, has four healthy (and largely grown) kids and a 20-year marriage to the country star Vince Gill. She’s authored multiple books, including a celebrated memoir, “Mosaic: Pieces of my Life So Far,” and hosted an NBC show called “Three Wishes,” where she essentially traveled the country making dreams come true.

Pretty sweet, huh?

Not that Grant would disagree — she speaks of her life with a palpable satisfaction, from the vantage point of age and experience. But as we plebes might imagine, superstardom takes its toll.

She tells a story about traveling while working in Germany with a girlfriend in the ’90s, at the peak of her celebrity. “I was spending a lot of time with Lyle Lovett and called him, and he gave me the name of a little town in Germany to visit. He said ‘I don’t feel like anyone speaks English there,’ and I said ‘Perfect.’ We had coffee in the town square, and I remember telling my friend: ‘I feel like a sham. I feel like a machine.’ And she said, ‘Why don’t we find a quiet corner, and you can throw open your guitar case, and we’ll just eat on whatever money you make?’ I did, and I was more nervous than singing at the Forum. We did get dinner out of it,” she laughs.

“It’s those unexpected moments that music intersects with normal life,” she says, “and it does feel good to get older and feel the freedom to breathe.”

Having the time to breathe is probably nice, too. Grant has been a working musician for over 40 years, having signed her first recording contract at 15, when the owner of the studio where she recorded her first demo finished the cut and called World Records. Grant describes those early years, taking guitar class in high school, hanging at a coffee shop-cum-bookstore, listening to a folk band called “Dogwood” that played there and never really took off. Yet their wide-ranging inspiration, from folk and rock to their own faith, moved Grant to try her own hand.

Her eponymous first album was released just shy of her high school graduation; she played her first ticketed concert while a college student at Furman, and not long after, she met her first husband, singersongwriter Gary Chapman. Grant’s career continued on the upswing, hitting a high note with “Heart in Motion,” her 1991 album with the hit single “Baby, Baby” that secured her in the mainstream, sending her touring around the world, and establishing her as the voice and face that continues to be so familiar to audiences.

As often is the case, behind the scenes wasn’t as glamorous as her life in the spotlight appeared. But Grant has a certain knack for seeing the rainbow after the storm. Years ago, she was involved in a serious car wreck and suffered injuries that largely took her peripheral vision. Grant says: “It’s helped me — whatever task is right in front of me, I can work hard at and focus, and when I step away, I step away.”

Her marriage with Chapman ultimately crumbled, and both the breakup and her subsequent marriage to Gill were very much in the public eye. Amid the noise of ubercelebrity, Grant seems particularly adept at finding quiet moments of magic in everyday life. She describes listening to her husband, along with Chris Stapleton and Al Anderson, playing music one “ordinary” day.

“I’m walking to the laundry room, and I’m listening to the three of those voices,” she says, “and I reached my hands to the ceiling and said, ‘This is the best laundry day of my life.’”

Okay, so maybe that’s not an average laundry day, but Grant does seem to see the beauty of her uniquely charmed life in small, quiet moments. She also sees her success — and that of others — largely as attributed to tenacity and hard work. The success stories she cites: Zac Brown, Stapleton, Drew Holcomb, and her own daughter, Jenny Gill, give credit to their talent, but truly pay homage to sheer will. She talks about her daughter playing Songwriters Fest in Key West not long after having a baby (“She was so proud of getting her baby weight off and flaunting her young beautiful self and then came back and got pregnant again.”). She talks about Zac Brown “playing every single club in the Atlanta area” before blowing up. “Man,” she said, “he just wouldn’t stop.”

Grant herself seems to have struck the perfect alchemy of unflagging work ethic — and a dash of her own special homespun sparkle. This year, two of her daughters got married, and she had the opportunity to offer a little advice from the other side of those hard-working, high-output, child-rearing years.

Amy Grant and husband Vince Gill, have performed and recorded together, and Grant says “There was never really any competition there.”

CONTRIBUTED

“There are times in your life that it’s like a ring of fire — it can be enormous and frightening. You are the tiger,” she says. “and you will practice and concentrate, and you will jump through the ring, and you will land on the other side. Wiser.”

Grant speaks like a tiger from the other side — and it does seem like her life, in some vital ways, has come full circle. She describes setting up a pre-wedding gathering for her daughter Sarah. Grant was adjusting the sound system at her daughter’s instruction.

“I looked over and saw my ex-husband, Gary Chapman, talking to my husband Vince,” she says, “and the sound system components were on a bench that people are sitting on, and I’m hopping over and trying to fix it. Vince leaned over to Gary and said: ‘Have you seen this movie before?

Amy’s over there spinning the plates.’” In the commotion, she saw the two of them smiling over at her. “This has taken 20 years,” she says, “and I knew that’s where we all wanted to get. It is possible to reconcile over irreconcilable lines.”

It’s a happy ending, but it’s not actually the end. Grant is redoing her old Bambi Airstream trailer, putting flags on the map of where she wants to go across America that she originally visited on a tour bus.

“My band gave me a birdhouse the shape of an Airstream, with three $500 gas cards inside and said ‘Take the trip.’” She is turning 59 this year, and their youngest is graduating from high school. “I told Vince: ‘I’ve got your tour calendar, and I am going to be the woman in the parking lot asking for a pass!’”

Grant has a bit more music to play first.

The band she’s bringing to Key West Theater are “artists in their own right — musicians, singers, writers, comedians and painters.”

They’ll come up with a song list unique to the evening and the vibe, and pepper the sets with stories. “It will just be a great night of music, no looking at the screen. Stories and songs. Music is still so soul-filling.”

MISSING MEMORIES Three fascinating novels about amnesia KAREN NEWFIELD First and foremost a reader, she has reviewed hundreds of books on her blog www. readingandeating. com. And, more recently, this new Keys resident has also begun writing.

A bonk on the head or seemingly innocent bite from a mosquito and suddenly you can’t remember your own name. It’s hard to imagine not knowing where you live, whom you love or what your favorite foods are. A popular theme in both books and movies, come along on a journey and learn how the brain retains its long- and shortterm memories. These are characters I hope YOU will not forget!

ALL THE FLOWERS IN PARIS

by Sarah Jio It’s a beautiful spring day when Caroline awakens in a Paris hospital. Lucky to be alive after a bicycle accident, Caroline is filled with fear when she is diagnosed with amnesia. The doctors hope she will regain her identity over time.

Caroline learns she had no friends or close family and lived a reclusive existence. As she begins to enjoy a friendship with the handsome, charming bistro owner, she is suddenly finding new meaning in life and has no desire to return to her solitary ways. With the serendipitous discovery of old letters hidden in her rooms, she focuses on a different puzzle. Caroline learns that while Nazis occupied Paris, the lovely Celine lived in this very same apartment. Celine ran a florist shop until a brutal officer threatened her family and everything they treasured. As Caroline deciphers both the past and present, she learns that new beginnings are possible if they are given a chance to bloom.

REMIND ME AGAIN WHAT HAPPENED

by Joanna Luloff Claire, a globe-trotting journalist, wakes up in a hospital in the Florida Keys. She does not know how she arrived. Claire remembers details of her childhood, her parents’ lives and even her grandparents.

But yesterday, last month, last year — nothing. Her passport reveals she recently arrived via India and doctors confirm the swelling surrounding her brain was caused

by Japanese encephalitis, a virus spread by a mosquito bite. Her husband Charlie and best friend Rachel help glue her life back together. As Claire is guided through photographs and stories, buried secrets of love and regret come bubbling to the surface. Are these their memories or hers? Narrated from three different perspectives, this emotional roller coaster through time examines the value and beauty of our precious past.

I FOUND YOU

by Lisa Jewell Near her cottage in East Yorkshire, Alice finds a man sitting by himself in the pouring rain. Her children and best friend disapprove of her nosing around, but Alice cannot abandon this man in the middle of a storm. His unkempt appearance, lack of identification and memory loss do not match the kind look in his eyes, his sweet face. In London, Lily is a newlywed, a recent immigrant and finds herself completely alone. Her husband never returned from work. Terrified, she contacts the police but they do not trust her story. Decades ago there was a tragedy involving an argument and suspicious drowning. A teenaged brother and sister on vacation found themselves deeply entangled in a drama they could not escape. These three stories collide on a blustery day with Alice in the eye of this suspenseful storm.

WEEKLY INTERVIEW

KEY WEST WEEKLY / SEPTEMBER 05, 2019

TOM FLIP www.keysweekly.com

K

ey West is full of characters, but few are more colorful — literally, metaphorically, however you slice it — than Q-Mitch Jones. The bearded big man is often seen strutting his stuff in a ball gown and brightly-colored wig while tirelessly raising money for charity. Bingo may be his game, but kind-hearted compassion is his sport. He embodies why Key West is such a special place, and he can be seen in numerous nationwide advertisements for the Southernmost City.

Born in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, Q-Mitch arrived in Key West in 2006. When asked, “Why Key West?” he said that Key West matched how he feels inside. In 2010, he took over the weekly Drag Queen Bingo at 801 Bourbon Bar, giving him a platform to raise money for charities of all kinds while entertaining crowds with his signature bawdy comedic banter. He is quick to remind everyone to attend a Sunday night game of Drag Queen Bingo, not only for the fun, or the good feeling of helping to raise money for charity, but as he puts it dryly, “I don’t know how much longer I’ll be doing it.”

The seemingly benign game of bingo becomes transformed into a raucous adventure week after week with Q-Mitch at the helm. Often berating the audience into giving more and more to that week’s charity, he holds his willing audience hostage by continually eating mayonnaise straight from the jar until he feels that they have given enough cold hard cash. Onlookers beg with dollar bills just to make it stop.

After the fact, he lets on that the “mayo” is really vanilla pudding, but the torturefor-a-good-cause has achieved the desired effect.

Q-Mitch ran for Fantasy Fest King in 2007, 2008 and 2013, and swears that between his three runs for king and nearly a decade of weekly bingo games, he has raised over a million dollars in the name of charity. I’m inclined to believe him, as I was taught never to question a man with a beard wearing a dress. Equal parts drag queen, club kid, southern gentleman and philanthropist, one thing is for sure: He puts the FUN in fundraiser.

I sat down recently with this truly unique Key West character and had the opportunity to learn what was behind those designer sunglasses making the man tick.

SOUTHERNMOST SASS AND SWEET TEA …

EVERY SUNDAY

Full name and nickname? Oh my God ... Reverend Mitchell Wade Jones. Aliases: Mitch, Wade, Q-Mitch, Quanzac, Q. If they call you for dinner, what do they call you? Mitchell.

What is your astrological sign? And do you fit the description? I do, very much.

I’m a Scorpio, and it’s a multiple personality sign. The names alone (laughs to himself)!

Scorpios are very multileveled and sexual too. I’ve figured out why, it’s because they all come from February conceptions. I’m exactly 9 months from February 14th on Valentine’s day to November 14. That’s why Scorpios are such lovers.

Do you have a life creed or motto? “No” would be my life motto. Do you want to do something? No. Do you want to go? No. No. I don’t need one.

Who are you performance inspirations?

I love Bob Newhart. I grew up watching “The Bob Newhart Show” and “The Newhart Show.” He went from being a psychiatrist in Chicago to an inn keeper in New England, and he was absolutely hilarious. Don Rickles is the other one too. Phyllis Diller, any of those “Laugh Ins,” “Hee-Haw” variety comedy shows. I think that’s why I always do a different costume, because every week, you’d tune in and they always had something different. Carol Burnett never wore the same thing. Bob Mackie was always an inspiration too. On Saturday nights, there was always a lineup of Lawrence Welk, Hee Haw, Carol Burnett ... it just worked.

What’s on your bucket list? I don’t have a bucket list. I’m not going to die.

Are you a vampire? (Laughs) It’s a pet peeve, the bucket list. Do you plan on dying?

I’m not planning on dying. I’m going to plan that bucket list a day or two before I do die, but I’m not going to plan ahead.

What’s your idea of perfect happiness?

Not having to be perfect. That would be the first thing. Just being able to be happy with enough. Be self-confident that what you have is enough.

What is it that you most dislike? When people don’t try new things. When people instantly go, “Well, I can’t do that.” Ignorance, I can’t stand stupid people. And if you’re reading this and you know you’re stupid, do something about it. If I could cure one thing it would be ignorance, and ignorance ain’t just being stupid from a books standpoint. Stupid is not having good social skills, and just being not-nice to people.

Which TV, movie, or superhero would be your alter ego? I’d be Carol Burnett with a little bit of Don Rickles mixed in, and Cher — did I say Cher already? How hot is Cher in her seventies? I just saw her for the first time in concert. I couldn’t believe it took this long. Now I just have to go see Dolly (Parton). Back to that bucket list thing, Seeing Dolly would be a bucket list thing. She’s got her own amusement park like Mickey Mouse.

What would your last meal be and who would you want to cook it? It would probably be fried shrimp, and it would probably be from this North Carolina seafood restaurant in Raleigh. I love fried shrimp. No offense to the Key West Pinks, but North Carolina fried shrimp are awesome.

Name three things you could not live without. Sweet tea, my momma, money.

You have to have it; it’s a necessary evil.

Did I offend you by drinking non-sweet tea? Nooooo, it’s your life.

If you had the power of invisibility, what would you do with it? I’d be thin, that would be the first thing.

WEEKLY INTERVIEW

KEY WEST WEEKLY / SEPTEMBER 05, 2019

37

Q-MITCH What difference would that make?

No one would see you. Can I have the superpower of flying instead? I would love to do that. I guess if I was invisible, I would sneak on planes.

On what occasion do you lie? I don’t lie about my age. I don’t lie about my weight. I lie at bingo when I wear false boobs. That’s an occasion I lie. That’s it.

Who is your dream audience? Everybody who thought I couldn’t do it, or wasn’t able to do it, or belittled me or put me down for any reason in my past. Thank you, because what you did to me back then surely made me stronger.

What is your greatest extravagance? Sunglasses. I got them on right now: my Chanels. And Travel. I travel way too much, or I have traveled way too much. I don’t have too much money for future travels, other than the Minnesota State Fair.

my portfolio, go back and look and see what I’ve done, and they would say, “Dolly, I think he’s a good person.”

I think Dolly would like you. Have you ever tried to reach out to Dolly? No. Other than at Dollywood, I would knock on all the random doors and say, “Dolly? Dolly?”

Finish these sentences …

My most marked characteristic is … creativity.

My autobiography title would be …

“Bingo … The Untold Story.”

I can never refuse … a sweet tea.

When I go, I will go … peacefully.

Wait, I ain’t dying, and I don’t need a bucket list. With all due respect to David Sloan, I don’t need a bucket list yet.

What would you like to be reincarnated as? I used to say I always wanted to be reincarnated as one of the cats at the Island House, but they don’t have cats there any more. I don’t know, I’m done, I’m not coming back. I think I’ve lived all nine of my lives.

If you could have lunch with one famous person, who would it be and where would you go? It truly would be Dolly.

Do you think she would eat?

Yeeees. She would be the only person that I think would accept the invitation. She couldn’t say no. I don’t think she would say no to me. She would have her research people research

What is your favorite social medium, why, and whom do you follow? Snapchat or Instagram.

I like to stay connected with my friends and family in Key West and all around the world.

3. I would like to be happy wherever I am and whatever I’m doing.

Will you make the Keys your permanent home? Why or why not? I have loved growing up in the Keys, but there are so many places I want to go and so many new things I want to accomplish.

Finish this sentence: Living in the Keys has taught me … friends and family are everything.

SENIOR

What organizations and activities are you involved with at KWHS? Executive Board, because being involved in my class and community is important; Interact Club, where I am the vice president; National Honor Society, which represents my good grades and hard work; Coffeemill Dance Studio, because it’s my second home and has taught me so much, even beyond my dance vocabulary.

ALANNAH SHANLE

Who has been your biggest inspiration at Key West High School and why? Lucy Lannigan, who graduated last year and has been one of my closest friends. She’s smart, driven and I can’t wait to see what her future holds.
