2. Speaker Projects/Upcoming Events MENTOR READING PROGRAM THE MENTOR READING PROGRAM HAD ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR.AS ANOTHER SCHOOL YEAR COMES TO AN END SO DOES OUR MENTOR READING PROGRAM AT JACKSONVILLE BEACH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. MY WARMEST THANKS GO OUT TO ALL THOSE WHO PARTICIPATED IN THIS VERY WORTHWILE AND REWARDING COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT. THANK YOU BILL HUTCHINSON, BILL MONTGOMERY, BERYLE DRYDEN, BUTCH SHADWELL, DIANNE LUDWIG AND ED ZAZZARINO FOR YOUR MANY, MANY HOURS OF MENTOR READING. --Fred King JBE MENTOR READING PROGRAM Last Week Did you know…? A zebra is white with black stripes. All the planets in our solar system rotate counter clockwise, except Venus. It is the only planet that rotates clockwise. Hummingbirds are the only animal that can also fly backwards. Insects do not make noises with their voices. The noise of bees, mosquitoes and other buzzing insects is caused by rapidly moving their wings. The cockroach is the fastest animal on 6 legs  covering a meter a second. The word "listen" contains the same letters as the word "silent". The only 2 animals that can see behind itself without turning it's head are the rabbit and the parrot. A 'jiffy' is an actual unit of time for 1/100th of a second. The whip makes a cracking sound because its tip moves faster than the speed of sound. A hippopotamus can run faster than a man. 'Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia' is the fear of long words. It is impossible to lick your elbow. A snail can sleep for 3 years (but I believe Jonathan Daugherty might challenge that record). The names of the continents all end with the same letter with which they start "Almost" is the longest word in the English language with all the letters in alphabetical order. Twenty-Four-Karat Gold is not pure gold since there is a small amount of copper in it. Absolutely pure gold is so soft that it can be molded with the hands. What’s Going On? Past Presidents Day is coming to our club on June 2nd. If you know a past president who might not know about this annual event, please invite him. Objects of Kiwanis (Fill in the Blanks) Sam Kouvaris 1. To give primacy to the human and ____________ rather than to the material values of life. 2. To encourage the daily living of the ____________ _______ in all human relationships. 3. To promote the adoption and the application of higher social, __________, and professional standards. 4. To develop, by precept and example, a more intelligent, aggressive, and serviceable ____________. 5. To provide, through Kiwanis clubs, a practical means to form enduring friendships, to render altruistic service, and to build better ______________. 6. To cooperate in creating and maintaining that sound public opinion and high idealism which make possible the increase of righteousness, justice, _____________, and goodwill. After Walter Mather’s thought provoking spiritual moment about the USMA cadet prayer, Sam Kouvaris took the stage. He presented himself very well, as an intelligent and articulate man. Most of you know Sam as the Channel 4 Sports Director. His list of accomplishments and honors is impressive. Most of his talk was about the television business and how Channel 4 has come to be the independent station it is today. He also had some interesting insight about how the internet and other competing news outlets have impacted his job. Mr. Kouvaris was also very gracious when one of our members took ill during his talk. I sincerely hope that, like my family, you all depend on WJXT for your local news… not to mention Oprah and Dr. Phil. By the way, Bob Cook wanted you to know that he stumped Sam with the first names of Dizzy and Daffy Dean. I think we should call the Guinness people. ---Butch Shadwell Guests 1. Spiritual 2. Golden Rule 3. business 4. citizenship 5. communities 6. patriotism • The name “Kiwanis” was adapted from the expression “Nunc Kee-wanis” in the Otchipew (Native American) language meaning which of the following: • We have a good time • We make a noise • We trade or advertise • My pants are too tight Congratulations!
