Brackensick, who finished eighth in season 11 of American Idol, an- swered questions, posed for photos, signed autographs and sang with campers, who were thrilled to meet him. DeAndre was “enthusiastic and engaging with the campers and was one of the most humble young men he has met,” said Andre Jones, camp leader at Southwest Recreation. The highlight of DeAndre’s visit was when he sang along with the kids, some of whom competed in Largo’s own Teen Idol Competition. Brackensick hosted a free release party on June 19 at the Museum of Science and Industry. He also made appearances throughout the Tampa Bay Area including the Boys & Girls Clubs of St. Petersburg, Springhill Community Center and the Moffitt Cancer Center. “Her Crazy” debuted June 4.

It worked, but I ended up throwing away bedding and washing clothes a hundred times – especially my most sacred Florida Gators T-shirt. Fleas and roaches are a nuisance, but even PETA wouldn’t vouch for bed bugs. I don’t wish bed bugs on anyone, except the IRS. So if I can’t see dust mites how do I know I have them? Because the American Lung Association says that roughly four out of five homes in the United States have detectable levels of dust mite aller- gen in at least one bed. And since being hopeless at house cleaning put me at great risk of a dust mite infestation, I must assume the obvious. Death to dust mites. I’m determined. Time again to visit the Internet bloggers. You are always entitled to their opinions: “If I am not mistaken, I believe putting things in the dryer on hot and running a few minutes will also kill dust mites. I do this with my children’s stuffed animals.” PETA would frown on stuffed animal abuse. “My allergist suggested washing in Pine Sol. I add about 1/8 cup to each load. And I use the citrus scent, so I don’t smell like a tree.” I certainly don’t want my sacred Florida Gators T-shirt to smell like a tree. Fear not, the war on dust mites continues. When somebody comes up with a sure-fire inexpensive way to rid the household of dust mites, I’ll be the first to know about it. I have a nose for news.

LETTERS Central parade theme should remain Editor: The Seminole City Council apparently has joined the trend toward “political correctness” by renaming the Christmas parade to a holiday parade. Let’s keep the date of the parade close to Christmas and hold it dur- ing the day, like the Pow Wow parade. This would mitigate the lighting issues and help with the weather factor. Other religious groups should be invited to take part ... those that observe Hanukkah, Kwanzaa etc. But the central theme of the parade has been the Christmas observance as governments and employers recognize that.
