Precautionary rabies vaccination started On August 15, the Sanibel Police Department was notified by Lee County Animal Services that a nine year old girl visiting Sanibel was bitten by . a raccoon. According to the girl's mother, the child is starting a series of rabies vaccinations from her home in Minnesota. At this time, there is no evidence that the Sanibel raccoon population is infected with rabies. According to the August 9, 2005 police report, the child was feeding the raccoon cat food at a shop on Tarpon Bay Road when she was bitten. During the investigation, the shop owners advised the police officer that a family of raccoons is living under the building and eating cat food left out by other shop owners for ferrel cats. The shop owner further stated that other people Sanibel have also fed the raccoons at this location and the ani- mals are no longer afraid of people. 6:H N.

While tide "tables are published in the MOON newspaper and can be found online, the tables show the what of tides rather than the how and why of their fluctuations. There are a few principles that govern the timing- and the amplitude of tides. Tides are predictable because of cause- and-effcct relationships among the Moon, the Sun, and the rotation of the earth. The relationships remained a mystery until 1687, when Sir Isaac Newton published Philosophiae Natural is Principia Mathematica, jn which he posited that the laws of gravi- lARHI tation state that two bodies are attracted toward each other, and that the strength of the attraction depends on the mass of the bodies and the distance between Himrrarion bv them.

"Last year we noticed there were a dozen or so kids at the fee center after school with basically very little to do," he said. "This day and age when both moms and dads are working until five o'clock, we needed to find something to fill that gap." The youngsters are taken to The Dunes for golf lessons with Tim Clark and Kevin McCune on Tuesdays and tennis lessons with Phil Deritis on Wednesdays and to Big Arts for chess and a variety of crafts projects on Thursdays. DeFonzo said students soon will also be learning tennis with Tony Halski at Sundial. With limited space at the rec center, DeFonzo said being able to have off-site activities is a good idea. "We have had a lot of limitations with regard to space up here," he said. "Between mold problems and Hurricane Charley and other situations, logistically we have been challenged." DeFonzo said having programs for the younger chil- dren and sharing the rec center with the school has stretched the facility to the limit.
