MELBOURNE — Students wondering what school to attend after high school should strongly consider Florida Institute of Technology, not only because it’s located in Brevard, but also because of its ranking among world universities.

Last month, Round University Ranking com-piled a list of 783 universities from around the world, including 135 schools based in the United States. Florida Tech was ranked No. 352 and was one of six Florida schools to make the list.

Florida Tech is a private institution and is cur-rently ranked as a “Tier 1” school. It was founded in 1958 and has students and professors attend from around the world.

The May 5 commencement ceremony conferred more than 1,200 degrees, with graduates from 38 states and 70 countries represented.

“There are about a dozen unique points that sets Florida Tech apart from other universities,” said Dr. Muzaffar Shaikh, Associate Provost/Associate Vice President at Florida Tech.

“In my view, what sets Florida Tech apart fore-

Mayors shareprogress at breakfast

MELBOURNE — Each year, Brevard County mayors have gathered under one roof to share what progress has been made under their city council and what challenges they look to face head-on in the future.

The 10th Annual Mayors Breakfast is organized and hosted by the Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce. The event kicked off to a lighthearted start on May 10, with Brevard County Sheriff Ivey as the moderator for the morning at the Crowne Plaza Melbourne Ocean-front.

President and CEO of the Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce Nancy Peltonen opened the event with a few positive words:

“It’s just amazing to see so many peo-ple in this room,” she said. “To get 15 mayors and a city council member from Titusville is just phenomenal.”

Mrs. Peltonen added that it was Puneet Kapur, chairman of the board of directors of GPBCC, who had the idea to bring all of the Brevard mayors together for an annual progress report 10 years ago.

Cape Canaveral Mayor Bob Hoog took to the podium first, announcing the completion of a new hotel, fire sta-tion and health services building, which the latter created 500 new jobs. The city plans to add two more hotels, work is underway for stormwater retention projects and a new city hall is scheduled

Blackburn to depart BPS to lead education nonprofit

BREVARD COUNTY — Superintendent Desmond Blackburn submitted his resignation on May 14 to the Brevard County School Board, giving 90 days’ notice. He will become CEO of a national nonprofit organization that improves public education by training and mentoring new teachers.

“We wish Dr. Blackburn and his family the very best,” School Board Chairman John Craig said. “We thank him for his leadership in the community and the positive impact he has had on our schools and children.”

Blackburn has served as superintendent of BPS since 2015. Under his leadership, the school district improved in several ways:

· More students earned satisfactory state test scores in “gatekeeper” subjects such as third-grade reading and high school algebra and English.

· The district invested more in career and technical education including in manufacturing, construction and health care.

· BPS introduced a new discipline plan that

ensures consistent and equitable punishment from one school to the next.

· The district reduced debt and earned strong credit ratings for conservatively managing its finances.

· BPS leaders strengthened relationships with cities and Brevard’s legislative delegation.

During the past year, Dr. Blackburn also worked with the school board and the Brevard Sheriff ’s Office to strengthen school security. Principals now routinely notify police of threats made by students. And the school board accelerated the installation of security fencing and other equipment that create a “single point of access” at each school.

Dr. Blackburn was tapped by Gov. Rick Scott to serve as the only superintendent on the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission, charged with studying the mass shooting in Parkland and recommending policy improvements.

A week before that tragedy, Dr. Blackburn led a contingent of student-government presidents from Brevard high schools on a one-day trip to Tallahassee where the students lobbied legislators to expand

m e n t a l - h e a l t h services at all Florida campuses. Dr. Blackburn said he would like to continue his work on the public-safety commission.

After leaving BPS, Dr. Blackburn will become chief executive officer of the California-based New Teacher Center,

a national nonprofit “focused on improving student learning by accelerating the effectiveness of teachers and school leaders.” The organization is not a BPS contractor. It describes its work as partnering with states, school districts, and policymakers to:

· Create sustainable mentoring and training programs for educators

· Enhance teaching conditions · Improve teacher retention· Improve school performance. “I am extremely honored to have the

opportunity to lead NTC,” said Dr. Blackburn, who will be based in Florida. “As both an educator and district leader, I have a thorough understanding of the challenges that teachers face in the classroom, the responsibilities of school leaders, and the important role that mentors and coaches play to help educators.”

Mr. Craig said the school board will start its conversation about a search for a new superintendent during a workshop Tuesday.

In his letter of resignation, Dr. Blackburn wrote: “To my Space Coast family, the residents of Brevard County, please know that serving you has been an honor and an absolute pleasure. From my very first day, all sectors of this community have welcomed me with wide-open arms. You welcomed me into your businesses; you welcomed me into your community functions; you welcomed me into your fundraising efforts for worthy causes; you welcomed me into your churches; and you even welcomed me into your homes. You epitomize ‘class’ and I will miss all of you dearly.”

Interfaith groups join to promote peace, healing

MELBOURNE — While actions can speak louder than words, sometimes it is words that are needed to help bring peace into our lives during times of cri-sis.

Leaders of Interfaith Connections of Brevard County and Interfaith Alliance of Brevard are inviting the public to join them in “Healing Through Our Stories: Personal Reflections on Freedom & Faith” from 5 to 8 p.m. Sunday, May 20, at Unity of Melbourne, 2401 N. Harbor City Blvd., Melbourne

These two local interfaith groups have come together by creating an event to promote solidarity, friendship and heal-ing for those in need of it.

Speakers for this month’s interfaith event include Gerda Stokler, who will share the experiences of her Jewish fami-ly and their escape from Nazi Germany; Will Davis, a Native American author and lecturer; Trevor Howard, director of the Melbourne DOCK program for dis-advantaged youth; and Carol Latifah Rashid, a retired Melbourne Police Department officer.

“We allowed people time to break into small groups to share their own personal stories of overcoming oppressive situa-tions,” said Rev. Deborah Vann of Hope Episcopal Church on a previous Inter-faith Connections event.

“This component of our gatherings is essential and is very well received because it provides a space where people can get to know one another and form those connections that lessen fear and build trust, which is our aim,” Pastor Vann continued.

Pastor Vann added that she can recall conversations with parishioners which indicates an increasing awareness of interfaith and racial unity issues within the community.

Rabbi Pat Hickman of Temple Israel of Viera has stated that there has been a sig-nificant interest and hunger for more interfaith events at her temple.

“The first event held by Interfaith Connections of Brevard ‘Ushering in New Hope’ brought together over 120 people to hear and learn about faith tra-ditions representing Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Jewish and Christianity [faiths],” said Reverend Rosalie Nor-man-McNaney, spiritual director and VITAS Hospice chaplain.

“This event sparked a new interest in learning about each faith tradition and a commitment to find common ground, and strengthen our understanding and sense of community among each other,” Pastor Norman-McNaney added.

The interfaith event also will include participating groups such as Hope Epis-copal Church, Temple Israel, the Center for Joyful Listening, Eastminster Presby-terian Church, Open Mind Zen Center,

Unity of Melbourne, the Islamic Society of Brevard County and the Baha’i Com-munity, Unitarian Universalists and Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church.

These groups have come together for more than just sharing their own stories of oppression. Through their combined efforts, volunteers of the interfaith groups have donated their time and money toward Brevard Zoo’s “Restore our Shores” shell-bagging events and will get together once again for the oyster reef building event next month.

According to Chairperson Lois Brad-shaw of Interfaith Alliance of Brevard, generous donations from the Baha’i,

Muslim and Christian faiths sent four large generators to Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria.

“Based on both verbal responses and the written evaluation of our last inter-faith event, participants who previously attended are eagerly look forward to hearing additional personal reflections of guest speakers who have overcome oppression and found freedom, faith and hope,” Pastor Norman-McNaney said.

“Those attending for the first time will be introduced to the power of the word and personal stories that can be a mirror in their own lives, and possibly begin the

process of finding freedom from oppression through faith and hope,” she explained.

Rev. Elizabeth Stamper, a licensed mental health counselor and member Open Mind Zen Center, has remarked on the positivity and open-mindedness of people with whom she has shared this event.

“When I’ve shared with others about our two interfaith groups that have

emerged in our county in the past year, I hear things like ‘Oh, I’m so glad this is happening,’ ‘This is wonderful, it gives me hope,’ and the feedback from the events we’ve held has been very posi-tive,” Rev. Stamper said.

She added, “Through the alliance of our two groups, more and more people are finding out about the mission and vision of interfaith. The vision we share is about unity – not just through learn-ing about other religions- but also by seeing that those of other faiths are not strangers to be distrusted, but real and caring members of the same human

family. People are also discovering that their own spiritual understanding and relationship with their own faith is not disrupted, but is deepened by exploring how others worship and practice their religion.”

The two groups already are looking to the future with events such as the Interfaith Thanksgiving Service on Nov. 19 at the Scott Center on Campus of Trinity Episcopal High School, and again on Jan. 20, 2019, in celebration of World Religion Day.

Contact FPL for survey to find out about high power bill

This comment is addressed to the pro-fessional engineer who complained about his atrocious electric bill.

I recommend that he contact FPL at (800) 342-5375 and request a "free" onsite home energy survey.

They will figure it out for him.

Proposed budget cuts can only make one go hmm

While everyone is listening to Russia/payoffs drama . . . read about the proposed coming budget cuts to due our 21 trillion debt.

I'm not opposed to all of them, but these caught my attention:

• $800 million cut to Medicare/Medic-aid

• $6.96 billion cut to children's health programs

• $40.8 million cut to public and Native American housing

• $10 million cut to the EPA• $179.1 million cut to federal high-

ways. Hmm . . .

Maybe we can play and clean lagoon at same time

Think about it . . . 100 horsepower of pumping might be just enough to keep the life alive.

Yes that's only 2 percent of a 10-mile area, but the intake depth could be adjust-ed, for conditions.

And then . . .

If we add a 1,000-horsepower wave rider and floaty race stream attraction, near the base, it'd be free.

Wickham Park walkway too small to share

We were so happy to see the new walk-way around Wickham Park, but it was short-lived.

We thought we would no longer have to share the road with vehicles, bicycles, roll-er skates, and runners.

Folks who like to keep in motion after age 65 walk around the park hoping not to be run over, want to enjoy the mocking birds' singing, and say hello to the rabbits, squirrels and turtles along the way. So we were overjoyed when the walkway was opened.

But now we are again sharing the walk-way with bicycles and roller skates and the signs clearly state we must “share.”

A six-foot-wide walkway doesn’t leave room for fast moving bicycle and skates or roller blades.

Sometimes it’s impossible to hear the fast-moving bicycles, and one step to the side and someone will get hit.

There’s barely enough room for two or three people to walk together in a com-panionable way. If bicycles are supposed to adhere to the rules of the road, why aren’t they riding on the road?

Readers say crossword puzzle not as difficult third time around

In the form of a “Rant”, I would like to point out that (last) week’s crossword is the third consecutive week that you have

printed the same crossword — however, the answers on the back look like they are the answers for what should have been printed for that week.

It is a little annoying, since I mainly pick up the paper in order to do the cross-word!

As for a “Rave” — I do enjoy reading about local news.

I look for the “Student of the Week”, the “Nice Catch,” the cute “Pet of the Week” and seeing where the “homies” are travel-ing.

Good job on those fronts.See what you can do about getting a

new crossword for next week. I’ve gotten really good and pretty fast at this one.

Concerns mount of IQ drop after last elections

We moved to Florida from Chicago

about a year ago. We bought a place and had it inspected

as I could not do it myself owing to a con-flict of interest.

I had an inspector to inspect our home. Our home is equipped with accordion hurricane shutters. However, the report of the inspection did not address our house being equipped with hurricane shutters.

I called the inspector and pointed out the shortcoming in his report.

He said our home is not fully protected. In our bathrooms we have ceiling glass

windows about 1 foot by 5 feet, which is not protected as it is not possible to pro-tect such windows.

I was given to understand that the insurance company would honor dis-counts if a tenement is completely pro-tected.

I contacted my insurance company and voiced my professional opinion. They totally ignored me.

I wonder why insurance companies do not use common sense to decipher what is appropriate.

I get a feeling after the last election, the IQ of Americans and other entities dropped.

As our late distinguished journalist Walter Cronkite used to say when he ended his news broadcast, "and that's the way it was."

Amazing. God bless America in this turmoil.

Tattoo shop fundraiser helps autism centerMELBOURNE — A Melbourne tattoo

shop will host a fundraising event in sup-port of a Palm Bay learning center from Tuesday, May 22, through Saturday, May 26.

“Ink For Autism” at Low Tide Tattoo & Art Gallery, 446 North Harbor City Blvd., Melbourne, will benefit Great Leaps Academy, which offers education for chil-dren with autism.

According to Low Tide officials, mem-bers of the academy at 1320 Culver Drive, Palm Bay, contacted the tattoo shop and asked if they would like to team up for a cooperative fundraising event. Ink for Autism was the result.

“A few of the employees from Great Leaps Academy have been long-time cli-ents,” said Matthew Zimmerman, Low Tide owner and founder. “This benefit is important to myself as well as my shop because it hits home for a lot of our clients

and families. We feel that it is way too widespread of an issue with very limited government funding, and if there’s a way to bring local small businesses together and build community to help reach out and raise awareness and funding for local programs and research, then every bit helps.”

Low Tide Tattoo is a shop that not only offers tattooing services, but is also involved with community events.

“We wanted to break the stigma of stan-dard tattoo shops,” Mr. Zimmerman said. “We wanted to create an environment and crew that not only put out high quality tattoos, but also was involved in the local community as well.”

Those looking to participate in the Ink for Autism event can select from a variety of puzzle piece flash-tattoos for $100, or guests can book an appointment for $50. Ink For Autism is a cash-only event.

“I have a few pages of puzzle pieces drawn up, and as some of my other artists will be creating pages for the event as

well,” Mr. Zimmer-man said. “The puz-zle pieces range from very simplistic and minimal, to water-color style, and some traditional style tat-toos with puzzle pieces incorporated.”

The puzzle piece motif has been asso-ciated with autism since 1963, and rep-resents the unique aspects of people with autism.

For more informa-tion about either Ink for Autism or Low Tide Tattoo, or to book an appoint-ment, call (321) 726-8433.

Melbourne seeks 35 lifeguards, 15 swim instructors

MELBOURNE — Being a lifeguard is an important responsibility, and the city of Melbourne currently is looking to train and hire lifeguards for the summer.

According to Melbourne city officials, the city is looking to hire 35 lifeguards and 15 swim instructors. The lifeguards will be staffed at Melbourne’s three public pools: Fee Pool, Sherwood Pool and Lip-scomb Pool.

“The city is offering lifeguard training and Water Safety Instructor classes for $50 to anyone that applies to the City of Melbourne,” said Sundae Hein, Mel-bourne’s recreation superintendent. “The lifeguard course is a 28-hour class teach-ing CPR, AED, First Aid and lifeguard skills. The Water Safety Instructor class is a 30-hour class that teaches people how to teach children and adults to swim and be safe, in and around the water.”

According to officials, there are a num-ber of prerequisite fitness skills that must

be demonstrated in order to become a lifeguard:

As prerequisites for the lifeguard class, applicants must be able to:

Swim 300 yards using freestyle or breaststroke using rhythmic breathing.

Tread water for 2 minutes without using their hands.

Swim 20 yards and retrieve a 10-pound brick off the bottom of the pool, surface, swim back 20 yards on their back holding the brick with two hands 20 yards and exit the pool.

Water safety instructor class applicants must be able to:

Swim 25 yards of freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke, elementary backstroke and sidestroke, and 15 yards of butterfly.

Float on their back for 2 minutes.“The most important aspect of being a

lifeguard is keeping patrons safe,” Mrs. Hein added. “For many people, lifeguard-ing is their first work experience and sets the tone for the rest of their life.”

Classes currently are being offered from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, May 18, through Sunday, May 20, for water safety instruction and lifeguarding classes.

Hired lifeguards and swim instructors will be expected to work through the summer pool season, which ends Sept. 3.

Applicants may apply online at www.melbourneflorida.org/jobs. For more information, call (321) 608-7400.

to open soon, he said.Challenges include making Cape Canav-

eral a more pedestrian-friendly city for walkers and bicyclists.

Cocoa Mayor Henry Parrish III dis-cussed how the crime rate in his city has decreased by 35.6 percent and violent crime has fallen by 40.7 percent in the past five years.

The construction of a new Walmart dis-tribution center and the Mike Erdman Toyota center will create new jobs in Cocoa later this year, he said.

Some of the biggest issues the city of Cocoa has been facing involved the Indian River Lagoon. The city has also recently signed a water deal with Orange County and Kissimmee worth $1 billion to double the Cocoa water system.

Cocoa Beach Mayor Ben Malik men-tioned tourism and its effect on the city. Cocoa Beach can now accept debit cards for beach parking stickers, which cost $60 a year and can be used at any Cocoa Beach parking area.

The city is also building a downtown parking garage, which will include bath-rooms, showers and 250 parking spots, and a Publix is being rebuilt in Banana River Square plaza.

Challenges include making changes for more dog-friendly beaches, fixing the Indi-an River Lagoon and relaxing city height limits.

Grant/Valkaria Mayor Del Yonts dis-cussed the aftermath of Hurricane Irma and how it destroyed half of Valkaria Road. Within nine days, she said, the city was able to re-pave and re-open the road.

Indialantic Mayor Dave Berkman also mentioned hurricane damage, with 2016 Hurricane Matthew collapsing old pipes beachside. Mayor Berkman said the town voted on a one-year tax to fix this problem.

The town collaborated with Melbourne Beach and the local Surfrider Foundation for an “Eats and Beats” food truck festival, he said.

Mayor Berkman reported that most beachside restaurants are now going straw-less and will refrain from using foam take-away boxes.

Indian Harbour Beach Mayor David Panicola said he was proud of the earmark $5.7 million from the “Save our Indian River” half-cent sales tax, which will imple-ment the dredging of 11 canals and will remove 180,000 cubic yards of muck to help restore the Indian River Lagoon.

Mayor Panicola noted that Indian Har-bour Beach Detective Corp. Lisa German

was named Brevard County and state of Florida Officer of the Year (in 2017). Police Department Administrator Assistant Sally Sullivan was selected as a Community Hero for the ICMA in 2017.

Indian Harbour Beach was also listed as the 12th-safest community in Florida in 2017, he said, noting that the city offers an e-commerce safe area in the city hall park-ing lot, which is monitored for the use of residents looking to meet and buy or sell items listed on sites like Craigslist.

Malabar Mayor Pat Reilly announced the relocation of Route 1 Motorsports from Grant/Valkaria to the town of Malabar.

Mayor Reilly added that the Florida Department of Transportation wishes to add a roundabout in the town by Malabar Road.

The town's biggest accomplishment involves the trails and greenway commit-tee, which has about 10 miles of trails in Turkey Creek and a new observation plat-form, he said.

Melbourne Mayor Kathy Meehan dis-cussed the rise of jobs in the area due to the Orlando-Melbourne International Air-port. She added that the airport terminal is being transformed “to be the best front door to Florida.”

Mayor Meehan announced that U.S. News and World Report recently ranked Melbourne No. 29 out of 125 cities as one of the best cities to live in in the U.S.

Melbourne Beach Mayor James Sim-mons said that due to the town council saving money in reserves, they were able to purchase a new generator.

Mayor Simmons also spoke with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to adopt regulations regard-ing land-based shark fishing.

Restaurants in Melbourne Beach are also making a conservation effort to the tune of reducing the use of plastic straws and Sty-rofoam boxes.

Melbourne Village Mayor Rand Car-roll showed off new signs to educate the public about gopher tortoises, from gopher tortoise crossings to warnings about pick-ing up or harming a tortoise.

Palm Bay Mayor William Capote talk-ed about the growth of the city and its pop-ulation. Development of a new interchange is currently under construction, he said.

With the addition of Embraer and Northrop Grumman to the area, Mayor Capote is confident of some employees who will also make the move to Palm Bay’s affordable lands.

Palm Shores Mayor Carol McCormack shared the progress of a 62-plus bed assist-ed living facility that is coming to the small town.

The biggest issues Mayor McCormack

said she faces is people speeding, and the height restriction that is set at 25 feet.

Rockledge Mayor Thomas Price dis-cussed the merging of the fire and police department under the Department of Pub-lic Safety, and the completion of construc-tion on Barnes Boulevard.

He added that Pyrtek, an Australian cor-poration, made Rockledge its United States headquarters and that it helped create 100 new jobs. Skyzone also has brought in more tourism to Rockledge.

In August, the city will also pay off its 30-year bond worth $30 million, and the city aims to be debt-free by 2022, he said.

Satellite Beach Mayor Frank Catino talked about how Satellite Beach has gone environmentally friendly. Within the past few years, the city council has purchased

40 percent of all beachfront property in Satellite Beach, he said.

The city council has also received grants to help educate people through workshops on how to use fertilizer, how to retain water on their property and more.

Mayor Catino shared a vision of seeing government buildings using solar power in the future.

Titusville City Council Member Sarah Stoeckel talked about how social media could be used to bring the community together. Titusville currently has a quarter-ly magazine, which informs citizens on the local events and issues they should know about.

Titusville is also home to three different bike trails, which connect to St. Petersburg on the gulf coast, Maine and the St. Johns

most is, it’s a private school with an optimum student size,” he added. “Florida Tech has a great international presence and industry partnerships.”

Expanding on his first point, Dr. Shaikh explained that Florida Tech’s student size, which on the main campus is just more than 5,200 students, is not too small or too big. Florida Tech also offers online courses and an extension school. Combined with the number of students on the main campus, Florida Tech has nearly 9,000 registered students.

“That makes it unique in two ways,” Dr. Shaikh said. “One is that Florida Tech’s stu-dent-to-faculty ratio is in the teens. That sets a personal touch for the students. The sec-ond reason is the academic reason. Being a private school, we have less bureaucracy, unlike public schools. Being a private school, we can start new programs or modify exist-ing programs pretty quickly.”

As an example, Dr. Shaikh recalled when Florida Tech added a program during summer 2002, when Harris Corporation and Northrop Grumman came to the school wanting a mas-ter’s degree in system engineering.

After creating a matrix with the courses the companies wanted, mixed with what courses were already available, Florida Tech

was ready to offer the first course for the degree by January 2003.

As for the school’s international presence and partnerships, more than 33 percent of the school’s population is international with 120 countries being represented, according to Dr. Shaikh.

“We care for our students,” he said. “I’ve been involved with being an associate VP for international partnerships so I can vouch for some of this information. When we talk internationalization, we are talking of a two-way process in that we, the U.S. students, need to understand what the other cultures are, and their sensitivities, and so on. By the same token, people from other countries need to understand our ways as well.”

Florida Tech hosts an annual Internation-al Festival at the beginning of each year, and for Mother’s Day offers a brunch around the world in the dining hall.

“I also think what sets us apart is our uni-versity president, Dr. (T. Dwayne) McKay,” Dr. Shaikh said. “He is both a scientist and engineer, and to his own credit has 18 differ-ent patents, and was recently awarded National Academy of Innovators, which is the highest honor that you can get.”

Dr. Shaikh added that Dr. McKay empha-sizes diversity and hopes students become “global citizens.”

CANCER - June 22/July 22It’s possible you may misread someone’s intentions, and it could get you in a bit of hot water, Cancer. Don’t make any assumptions and apologize if you make mistakes.

LEO - July 23/Aug. 23Leo, if your energy levels are waning, find a way to put some hop in your step. Take a break from work if necessary. This is a great way to recharge.

DINING & ENTERTAINMENTLocal archaeologist presents history of pirates

BREVARD COUNTY – Piracy has been a feature of trading waterways since the dawn of civilization, and it continues to occur even in today’s high-tech world.

On Tuesday, May 8, underwater archaeologist and historian Sir Robert Marx presented a lecture at the Florida Institute of Technology on the subject of pirates and piracy, including his own experiences with modern pirates.

Sir Marx also spoke about his own archaeological experiences in looking for sunken pirate treasure.

One of his archaeological excavations took Sir Marx to the sunken city of Port Royal, Jamaica.

“I used a diving hookah, which is a mask on your head with a hose going to the surface [to complete the excavations],” Sir Marx explained. “With SCUBA, you have to take the tank off every hour or so and come back up depending on how deep you are. With a hookah, you can stay down all day and never come up. I started in the morning, and went eight to 10 hours every day.”

At the Port Royal site, Sir Marx found “over 2 million” artifacts. “It’s the largest amount of artifacts ever found, on either a sunken city

or a shipwreck,” Sir Marx said.Sir Marx also spoke about

fending off modern pirates in the Caribbean, and around the coasts of Africa.

In 1969, Sir Marx had an encounter with pirates in the Bahamas, who were after the gold that he had pulled up from a nearby Spanish galleon. He also had two other run-ins with modern pirates, one of which held him for ransom in South America.

Sir Marx’s presentation are made available by Florida Tech, which hosts lectures on various topics throughout the year.

For more information about Florida Tech’s lecture schedule, call (321) 674-8096.

the Scherzo movement of “String Quarter Opus 59, No. 1”, Beethoven’s “Pathetique” Sonata, and will close the concert with “Ode to Joy” from “Symphony No. 9.”

As one of the most widely recognized orchestral composers, Mrs. Markstein will lead a discussion about Beethoven’s life and his role in Western music history.

Library Director Marian Griffin said that the Catherine Schweinsberg Rood Central Library typically offers four musi-cal programs a year, which are paid with

money raised through the Friends of the Central Brevard Library fund.

“The Markstein Quartet is the best known group we hire to perform at the library,” she said. “We average four musi-cal programs a year but are trying to build on that.”

The next performance, a solo guitarist, is scheduled to perform at the library in June.

The Catherine Schweinsberg Rood Central Library offers patrons nearly 200,000 items to check out for free, from books to CDs and DVDs.
