OFFICIALS IN MARCO COUNTY SAY THE COAST GUARD RESCUED A 29-YEAR-OLD FISHERMAN THIS MORNING.

HE WAS REPORTED OVERDUE WHEN HE DID NOT RETURN LAST NIGHT TO THE GOODLAND MARINA.

COLLIER MARINE UNITS FOUND HIS BOAT LAST NIGHT ABOUT A MILE NORTH OF THE GOODLAND BRIDGE.

CHILD SAFETY ZONES-2 SHOT DBX

THE CITY OF FORT MYERS WANTS TO TIGHTEN RESTRICTIONS ON REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS.

GOOD AFTERNOON, I'M HEATHER TURCO.

AND I'M STACEY DEFFENBAUGH.

A NEW ORDINANCE IS GOING IN FRONT OF THE COUNCIL THIS AFTERNOON THAT WOULD ESTABLISH CHILD SAFETY ZONES.

IT WOULD REQUIRE THAT REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS STAY AT LEAST 300 FEET AWAY FROM PARKS AND SCHOOLS.

BUT NOT EVERYONE AGREES WITH THIS NEW ORDINANCE.

NBC-2'S CLIFTON FRENCH JOINS US NOW LIVE IN DOWNTOWN FORT MYERS WITH MORE.

CHILD SAFETY ZONES-REM

VERY FEW PEOPLE WOULD DISAGREE THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP OUR CHILDREN SAFE FROM PREDATORS WHILE THEY'RE PLAYING AT A PARK OR WAITING FOR THE BUS.

CHILD SAFETY ZONES-PKG

PKG:

WE'RE ALWAYS CREATING LAWS TO KEEP OUR CHILDREN SAFE.

AGE LIMITS ON DRINKING AND SMOKING.

SPEED LIMITS IN SCHOOL ZONES.

SO IT'S NO SURPRISE THAT A NEW FORT MYERS CITY ORDINANCE PRESENTED BY THE CHIEF OF POLICE WOULD ATTEMPT TO KEEP SEX OFFENDERS FURTHER FROM OUR CHILDREN. BY MAKING "CHILD SAFETY ZONES."

STU: "The purpose of this ordinance is pretty straight forward, it would keep registered sex offenders away from places like playgrounds, parks, schools, bus stops, even libraries."

BY REQUIRING THEY STAY BACK AT LEAST 300 FEET FROM POPULAR PLACES FOR CHILDREN OR OFFENDERS COULD FACE JAIL-TIME AND FINES.

AN ORDINANCE THAT SOUNDS GOOD TO MANY.

"The term sex offender casts fear when you say it, it triggers a primal response to protect our children."

THAT'S MARIA KAYANAN, AN ATTORNEY FOR THE AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION OF FLORIDA.

THE STATE ALREADY RESTRICTS SEX OFFENDERS FROM LIVING WITHIN A-THOUSAND FEET OF MANY OF THOSE PLACES.

SHE BELIEVES THE ORDINANCE IS A PLOT TO PUT SEX OFFENDERS BACK IN JAIL. AND TO PUSH THEM OUT OF THE COMMUNITY.

BUT IT'S SOMETHING SHE SAYS COULD HAVE SOME BAD CONSEQUENCES.

SOT: "When laws are enacted that so over-regulate and so over-reach an individual's every movement, that's not good for that individual and will likely drive him or her off the grid, underground and outside the supervision of law enforcement, making the children in our communities less safe."

CHILD SAFETY ZONES-REM

LEE COUNTY ALREADY HAS "CHILD SAFETY ZONES."

THIS ORDINANCE IS NEARLY IDENTICAL TO THE COUNTY ORDINANCE.

TODAY THE COUCIL WILL VOTE TO ADVERTISE THE ORDINANCE.

IT WILL THEN GO UP FOR A PUBLIC HEARING AT A LATER MEETING.

THE BUZZ IN WASHINGTON IS THAT PRESIDENT OBAMA WILL MAKE A FORMAL ANNOUNCEMENT SOME TIME TODAY TO NOMINATE BOTH HAGEL AND BRENNAN.

BUT THESE TWO PICKS DON'T COME WITHOUT CONTROVERSY.

HAGEL IS COMING UNDER FIRE FOR WHAT SOME REPUBLICANS HAVE CALLED A "SOFT STANCE" ON ISRAEL.

HAGEL AND BRENAN-PKG

"Chuck Hagel, if confirmed to be secretary of defense, would be the most antagonistic secretary of defense towards the State of Israel in our nation's history. "

"I think it will be a lot of tough questions of Senator Hagel."

HE'S ALSO BEING CRITICIZED FOR COMMENTS HE MADE ABOUT OUR COUNTRY'S FIRST OPENLY GAY AMBASSADOR.CALLING HIM "AGGRESSIVELY GAY." BACK IN 1998.

THE PRESIDENT CAME TO HIS DEFENSE.

FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE SHOOTING LAST JULY, ATTORNEYS ARE EXPECTED TO PUBLICLY PROVIDE EXTENSIVE DETAILS ABOUT THE CASE.

HOLMES IN COURT-PKG

MORE THAN FIVE MONTHS AFTER THE THEATER MASSACRE, ATTORNEYS WILL LAY OUT THE CASE AGAINST JAMES HOLMES,

SEEN HERE DURING AN EARLIER HEARING.

"The purpose of the prelim hearing is to determine if there is or is not probable cause that Holmes committed each and every one of the crimes against him."

THOSE CRIMES. KILLING 12 PEOPLE AND INJURING 70 OTHERS IN THE SHOOTING AT THIS AURORA, COLORADO THEATER.

DURING THE WEEK LONG PROCEEDINGS, THE JUDGE IS EXPECTED TO HEAR 911 CALLS, SEE SNIPPETS FROM HOURS OF VIDEO,

AND LISTEN TO WITNESSES, INCLUDING POLICE OFFICERS AND VICTIMS.

A RULING LAST WEEK ALLOWS DEFENSE TESTIMONY ABOUT THE SUSPECT'S MENTAL STATE, DESPITE THE PROSECUTION'S OBJECTIONS.

"One of the problems for the defense in the Holmes case is by going through the prelim hearing much of the highly inflammatory and prejudicial evidence they have been able to keep from the public will be made public in open court."

THESE PROCEEDINGS OCCUR AS CONTROVERSY SWIRLS ABOUT THE PLANNED RE-OPENING OF THE THEATER THIS MONTH.

SOME RELATIVES OF VICTIMS HAVE REJECTED AN INVITATION FROM THE THEATER'S PARENT COMPANY,

CINEMARK THEATERS, TO ATTEND AN EVENING OF REMEMBRANCE EVENT.

'None of us are interested in even stepping foot in that theater, in that killing field, ever again."

OTHERS FEEL DIFFERENTLY AND SUPPORT THE RE-OPENING.

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-CLIP

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-WXWALL

A fading cold front over Central and South Florida may manage to kick up a few showers this morning and then a few more during the heat of the day, but any rain that develops today will be pretty isolated and hit-or-miss.

Aside from a few showers, our sky will feature a mix of sun and clouds, leading to some very warm weather through the afternoon. The average high for this time of year is 75°, and we'll manage to warm several degrees beyond that with our daytime temperatures aimed to near 82° this afternoon.

Humidity levels will continue to stay pretty elevated through the course of the week, bringing the potential for some early morning patchy fog throughout the week, so you may have to contend with low visibility if you're commuting early in the morning close to sunrise.

By Tuesday the cold front that's been essentially parked across Central and South Florida will ultimately fade away, so our weather looks to stay fairly quiet through the remainder of the week with no major cold fronts headed our way.

The big story for us through the next several days will be in the temperature department as daytime highs warm to the low to mid 80s through the end of the week and overnight temperatures only cool down to the mid 60s! These numbers are about ten degrees above average for this time of year.

Even with the abnormally warm weather around, moisture will be very limited, so rain chances will continue to stay very slim through the upcoming weekend.

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-CLIP

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-WXWALL

A fading cold front over Central and South Florida may manage to kick up a few showers this morning and then a few more during the heat of the day, but any rain that develops today will be pretty isolated and hit-or-miss.

Aside from a few showers, our sky will feature a mix of sun and clouds, leading to some very warm weather through the afternoon. The average high for this time of year is 75°, and we'll manage to warm several degrees beyond that with our daytime temperatures aimed to near 82° this afternoon.

Humidity levels will continue to stay pretty elevated through the course of the week, bringing the potential for some early morning patchy fog throughout the week, so you may have to contend with low visibility if you're commuting early in the morning close to sunrise.

By Tuesday the cold front that's been essentially parked across Central and South Florida will ultimately fade away, so our weather looks to stay fairly quiet through the remainder of the week with no major cold fronts headed our way.

The big story for us through the next several days will be in the temperature department as daytime highs warm to the low to mid 80s through the end of the week and overnight temperatures only cool down to the mid 60s! These numbers are about ten degrees above average for this time of year.

Even with the abnormally warm weather around, moisture will be very limited, so rain chances will continue to stay very slim through the upcoming weekend.

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

PLASTIC SURGEON DR. JACOB STEIGER SAYS FACIAL REDNESS AND BROKEN BLOOD VESSELS ARE A COMMON COMPLAINT.

BOTH CAN BE THE RESULT OF A SKIN CONDITION CALLED ROSACEA.

"It's still somewhat of a scientific dilema as to exactly what is causing rosacea we know that it's common in certain cultures more than others but it affects many people and many people are looking for a treatment for it."

DR. STEIGER IS NOW WORKING WITH A DEVICE CALLED THE EXCEL V LASER THAT DELIVERS MORE INTENSE ENERGY THAN OTHER DEVICES. ACCOMPLISHING IN ONE TREATMENT WHAT MAY TAKE UP TO FIVE TREATMENTS WITH OTHER DEVICES.

"It feels liek a rubber band snapping up against your skin then burns for a few minutes and goes away."

THE LASER CAN ALSO TARGET POST SURGICAL BRUISING.

"You see it right in front of your eyes, it just wipes out the bruise and you don't see that with the IPL and pulse dye lasers."
