The commission will set the final millage at its regular meeting Tuesday, September 26, begin- ning at 5 p.m. at the Courthouse in LaBelle. The county commission set the proposed millage for next year at 8.5 mills, down from this year's 8.75. At 8.5 mills, the county's total proposed revenue would be $31,624,151. One mill equals $2.8 million The county's total assess- ment for 2006 is $2,814,131,759 - a $900,035,483 increase over 2005's $1,914,096,276. Included in the county's $31,624,151 budget is a 3.5 percent cost of living increase for employees as well as some insurance and retirement increases. In recent years, the county has used sales tax income to supple- ment the general fund and bal- ance the budget. About a half-cent of the seven cent sales tax goes into the general fund; six cents to the state; and .54 cents to pay for a 1992 bond issue which will be paid off this year. Commissioners % -- to balance budget without I '*infrastructure or .5 cent : ). they proposed the 8.5 'ich includes $4 million ne cent sales tax. CERT:Neighbors caring for neighbor Caloosa Belle/Patty Brant Mary Bartoshuk treats Brianda Quiroz, 17, a Hendry county Sheriff's Explorer for a "bro- ken arm and serious hand injury." Emergency response team graduates By Patty Brant For 13 weeks friends, neigh- bors and area residents came together once a week to learn the basics of emergency response. Their goal: to have the knowledge and skills to help themsek'es and their neighbors in the event of emergencN, before the profes- sionals can get there. Recently 60 members of the i I county's first Citizens Emergency Response Team (CERT) course graduated by demonstrating their newly-acquired skills during a mock emergency at the LaBelle Civic Center. After the mock emergency a gas explosion - teams split up into two groups to critique their performance According to Public Safety Director Randy Bengston CERT volunteers are on the "front lines of emergency response." Their quick response can make a world of difference in the outcome for many victims. "They learn basic See Disaster Page 2 Bill Dunbar and his daughter Savannah assist a "victim." The county is looking at $100 million in future building con- struction, requiring a $4-5 million bond payment every year for 20 years. Originally, the commission- ers planned to set aside $.5 million to design a new jail, $.5 to design a new administration building and $210,000 to build a new suboffice in Clewiston; and other construc- tion projects using that $4 mil- lion. After next year, they would use it to pay the recurring bond for the $ 100 million construction. With Hendry acquiring 1.5 new judges this coming year, and likely more in the future, the coun- ty needs space to put them. Con- structing anew court building is the most practical because of the special security required. Tem- porarily, the county is in the process of rearranging office space now: administration is moving across Lee St. into the Old Courthouse Square rentals. The See Tax Page 2 Ronnie Lee chosen Sheriff of the Year Hendry County Sheriff Ron- nie Lee was presented with the I -;: "Sheriff of the Year" award at the ' Annual Police Chiefs and Sheriffs Awards Luncheon.

It is an education and identification* program for parents who have children in car seats. Spon- sored through the Florida Department of Transporta- tion, Shands TraumaOne, Injury Free Coalition, Injury Free Coalition for Kids, WAPE- FM 95.1 and Jiffy Lube, WHALE can make a differ- ence in the event of a motor vehicle crash involving your child. Providing vital information about your child will result in a more efficient rescue effort by emergency personnel. In many cases children are too young to identify themselves or their parents should the driver be incapacitated, hin- dering emergency treatment, emergency contacts or special medical needs. WHALE requires the use of three self-adhesive stickers and. one information label. The 6"x4" information label is the most vital part of WHALE check. It provides important information about the child in the car seat, such as name, See Whale-Page 2 Local physician receives honor Dr. John Geake, a local physician for the past ten years, was honored last month in Reston, Virginia, by Health and Human Services National Health Service Corp. Dr. Geake received a scholarship from the National Health Ser- vice Corp. for two years of medical school. He had an obligation to serve the two years after residency in a rural, medically underserved site. In 1996 he became the medical director at the Hendry Family Care Center in Clewiston. Dr. Geake is a D.O. or doctor of osteopathy at Dr. Kyle Stud- ley's office. According to answers.com online "osteopa- thy is the practice of therapy based on manipulation of bones and muscles. This school of medicine maintains that the normal body produces forces necessary to fight dis- ease and that most ailments are due td "structural derange- ment" of the body. Frequent slight strains are held to be capable of causing misalign- ment of bones and various other conditions of the.muscle tissue and cartilage, and treat- ment is directed toward cor- rection of these conditions". Dr. Geake said that there are two fully licensed doctoral positions. They are an M.D. and aD.O. They have the same medical education: The only difference is that D.O.'s also do manual medicine or muscle manipulation. In 1997 Dr. Geake was involved in a motorcycle acci- dent which left him paralyzed from the waist down. He con- tinued to practice part time and over the years eventually fulfilled his obligation to the National Health Service Corp. Dr. Geake and his wife, Ellen, became a part of the commu- nity and decided to make Glades County their perma- nent home. Dr. Geake was honored for his "dedication and commit- ment to provide quality health care to our nation's most vul- nerable population and for his significant contribution to improving the health of our underserved." Dr. Geake was the keynote speaker at the 35th anniversary celebration of the National Health Service Corp's 35 years of Excellence. The Glades County Commission sent a res- olution recognizing his contri- butions to the community, as well as a letter from the Chan- cellor, Dean and Associate Dean of Nova Southeastern College of Osteopathic Medi- cine. Dr. Geake is past presi- dent and has been very active in the Alumni Association. Dr. Geake's last day in LaBelle at Dr. Studley's office will be September 25. He will be opening up an office in Moore Haven in November.

"I was surprised at how many people know nothing about fire extinguishers," she said, "and I realized that in an emer- gency situation... you have to make some hard decisions very quickly."

Commissioner Bill Maddox's plan is to reduce the millage fur- ther from 8.5 mills or cut $7 mil- lion; use the $4 million from the general fund; cut department budgets by 10 percent; and stop all theirsafety comes first "you can't' . help if you can't get there" and you need to learn to "do the most amount of good for the most peo- ple" in any emergency. CREW Director Trish Adams and her case manager Akiva John- son both took the CERT training. Trish was very impressed with the dass, saying it was "excellent it's what this community needs." Akiva added, "We learned a lot; we're ready to help the community. It's been great experience." Sue Reese from the health department also took the course. She was very impressed that the "community can come together.as a team, helping in a disaster.",For her, the most useful'part of the course was the hands-on practical skill of handling fire extinguishers and experience with bandages. Emergency Management is planning to continue the learning experience with updates for the graduates. If you missed this first class, another is being planned for nextyear some time. unnecessary building for one year The deciding factor in the final budget may well be how much state funding the county would lose if w\e go under 8 mills. That figure is approximately $1.850 mil- lion in SCRAP money (used mainly for road construction). At 8 mills or less, the county would also lose its waiver for permitting fees. newszapcom ,-Community Links Individual V/oices" I ~~~~~~~~~'Y~ c U1 :1 r r~i; r ~~ I TI TI~ Your #1 Choice For Repais and Re-Roots Steel Buildings & Components IAsri si niProducs 41 StQsoeseem t roof &etI R jmnelsUo, Upafn, Ajianets FtA line -of ansondes ALL AMERICAN ,- CONSTRUCTION 1-866-279-5035 fa~' n 4-4qW3-24 .rsew- es Ire...T-y ur Product Informatiol Pricing & Order Fonns www.amencancomponents.com www.americansleelmfg.com CBC 12f17M4 LOST YOUR Don't Sweat, we'll fix it!

Caloosa Belle, Thursday, September 21, 2006 Be watchful of foodborne E.coli virus The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing an alert to consumers about an outbreak of E. coli 0157:H7 in multiple states that may be asso- ciated with the consumption of produce. To date, preliminary epidemiological evidence sug- gests that bagged fresh spinach may be a possible cause of this outbreak. Based on the current infor- mation, FDA advises that con- sumers not eat bagged fresh spinach at this time. Individuals who believe they may have experienced symptoms of illness after consuming bagged spinach are urged to contact their health care provider. "Given the severity of this ill- ness and the seriousness of the outbreak, FDA believes that a warning to consumers is need- ed. We are working closely with the U.S. Centers for Disease Con- trol and Prevention (CDC) and state and local agencies to deter- mine the cause and scope of the problem," said Dr. Robert Brack- ett, Director of FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutri- tion (CFSAN). E. coli 0157:H7 causes diar- rhea, often with bloody stools. Although most healthy adults can recover completely within a week, some people can develop a form of kidney failure called Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS). HUS is most likely to occur in young children and the elderly. The condition can lead to serious kidney damage and even death. To date, 50 cases of illness have been reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, including eight cases of HUS and one death. At this time, the investigation is ongoing and states that have reported, illnesses to. date include: Connecticut, Idaho, Indiana, Michigan, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah and Wisconsin. FDA will keep consumers informed of the investigation as- more information becomes available.

"This is why we. left Naples and moved to LaBelle;" My thoughts on that are... Every per- son who has moved here from a other fast growing area are turning our quaint little "Mayberry" into a little Naples. The proposed increase in property taxes is going to cause a lot of young people and old people to have no choice but to relocate. LaBelle is a minimum wage town. There are very few jobs available where a person can make the income it will take to live here. And the ones that are available the person's holding those positions must die before someone else can fill them and have "good old boy member" as part of their resume. I have lived in this quaint little town almost my entire life (43 years) and have seen many changes. Some good, some bad. I am not opposed to change, however, what is happening here goes way beyond an increase in taxes. The powers that be soon will have way too much power and the little guy just trying to make ends meet will be homeless. I make $9.50 an hour pretty good money in LaBelle. Now let's factor in I am a single parent (not by choice). I have a mortgage $600 a month (for a 1200 sq. foot home). My utilities run approx. $250 a month. We spend $100 a week on groceries. Home owners insurance is now up to $1500 year. A car payment of $350 a month added to that. After taxes my bring home pay is $1,312 a month. My expenses are around $1,325 a month. Just a quick estimate of the math says I am at a deficit of $13 a month and I still haven't put gas in my car, insurance on the car or paid myyearly taxes! Savings? What is that? Anyone up for starting a "quaint little town" somewhere else? NOT A DOGGIE TOILET: My gripe is people who take their dogs to Barren Park to let them relieve themselves. This is a park for people to go and enjoy the beautiful trees, the river and just enjoy the beautiful LaBelle day, not to have to worry about stepping in someone's dog mess. I have seen several people a lot from just around the park and some come from across the river to let their dogs relieve themselves in the park. There is a large field across from the park, but they take the animals in the park. This needsto stop. TELL YOUR COMMISSIONER: People of Hendry County have you looked at your ne\v proposed property taxes? Please let Nour county commissioner know that the people ol this county cannot afford this. This is one of the poorest counties in the state with one of the highest tax rates. Who would want to move here with our tax rate? Call your commissioner and express your opinion, they are sup- posed to represent us and they can be replaced at the next election. RESPONSE TO MUSE SPEAK OUTS: If Muse needs a new commis- sioner, Muse people need to come out and vote and-participate in com- munity association not rely on secondhand knowledge. WHATS WRONG WITH THIS? Why is it people who don't want to work can get a job,but people who want, need to work and have a family cannot get a job?

An idea has been simmering for years but came to a recent rolling boil.. .my kids have left the nest so to speak and I was think- ing what is it that I would really like to do? I have always wanted to ball room dance after watching Fred Astaire many a Saturday growing up. But the generation I grew up in did not dance that way and there were no places to really dance in a ball room setting. That all went up in flames in the '60s. Antonio Bandaras has recently been seen in a move called, "Take the Lead" in which a ballroom teacher takes inner city students who then find a new purpose in their lives when they are intro- duced to the world of ballroom dancing. I think that there are a lot of young adults including myself, who is an old-young adult (LOL), that would love to learn Salsa, Ballroom or Swing. This movie definitely makes one itching to try it out at any rate. What I would like to know is: are there people out there like myself who would like to learn dancing without having to go into Fort Myers? Would there be a large enough demand to hold month or bi-monthly dances with either live music or recorded? Is there someone who lives in this community who would be willing to teach or would we try and locate someone from Fort Myers to come to LaBelle? If we can,, then where could we hold the practices and or the dances, and keep the cost to a minimum? I have one lead where an instructor would come for $100 an hour plus $25 travel, so for ten people it would be $12.50 for an hour of fun. That is one possibility. We need something to do. in LaBelle that is low.cost, fun and healthy. Oh, did I say healthy? Dancing seems to be a great way to lose some weight, increase the cardio vascular system and create those happy thoughts like laugh- ing.. Socialization is another aspect of it. Where can we as peo- ple gather together and just have fun and maybe even dress up a bit for that Saturday night out? I am writing this letter to see who may be interested 'in taking dancing lessons, finding out where we could have them and if we could start holding dances of various types throughout the year. I would like to even see a cos- tume benefit ball on New Years Eve in the future. If you are inter- ested and live in the LaBelle area call me in the evening at 675- 4098. If I can gather enough inter- est I would be willing to find a teacher or coordinate this until something can be continued by an organized dancing association. Any takers? Itching to dance with dignity JovitaWilliamson Congestion anywhere costs us money Dear Editor: SI worry about how .much increased traffic- congestion across the country and high gas prices are costing us in higher prices for goods and more high- way construction money. Many of us are not aware that freight traffic has a bigger impact on highway congestion than passenger traffic. Worse yet, transportation officials are predicting that freight traffic will grow .67 percent over 20 years. We need to haul more of this freight by rail. As someone who has been involved with railroading for most of my life, I know well the benefits of shipping freight by rail - decreased air pollution, reduced highway congestion, a stronger economy, and less fuel consump- 'tion which can help decrease our dependence on foreign oil. A bill recently introduced in Washing- ton would help address this issue. The Freight Rail Infrastructure Capacity Expansion act, U.S. Sen- ate Bill 3742, would boost invest- merit in freight rail projects that expand capacity and allow rail- roads to haul more freight. I encourage our Senators and our community to support this bill. Sincerely, Add Austin A timely discussion about inheritance There are many of you reading this whose parent or parents are still alive. Most of them will be leaving some assets to you and your siblings. Do you know if they have, a current will or trust? Do you know what it says? Have you discussed it with them? Is this important? You bet ya! If you are, riot politely on top of this, at their death you may be faced with some really disappointing prob- lems. First, let me say that vou need to honor your mother and father just like the Bible tells you. Sec- ond, you need to show them love and pro\ ide care for then, just as they did when you were a child. And, don't think sellishly about what you are going to inherit. Here is a terrible experience I had during rmy insurance career. I sold life insurance to a client about 35 years old. He ran his par- ents' successful business. He was the key man. Without him, it would have failed due to his spe- cific talents. I had not met either Financial Tips by Wayne C.Switzer parent. Their insurance agent was a friend of mine and he was a sharp guy, but I never discussed any of his client's personal infor- mation \ith him. During an estate-planning interview with my client, I cor- rectly guessed that his parents had a sub-S corporation, and cor- recly guessed at the ownership of many rental houses his parents owned. I told him the things he should discuss with his parents, including planning for the succes- sion of the business. What I had no way of knowing was that his parents could not stand his wife and they Nrever wanted her to know anything. When I delivered his policy to his office a couple of weeks later, I was greeted by his mother who told me off big time for sharing her personal information with her daughter-in-law. I tried to explain, but she was convinced that her personal agent had given me her file and no amount of talking was going to change her mind. Fortu- nately, my client, the son, under- stood and was not unhappy with me. Later on. I got to know his father and everything \~as all right, and they did do the plan- ning. I have seen several occasions when a female caregiver, some- times nurses, have bonded with an elderly sick man, and taken .care of him lovingly before he died. In addition to being paid, he gave them his home in a last minute will. There is one case where I saw a son go to his ailing father and get him to change his will so the family business went exclusively to the son, and an equal amount of cash to his sister. The sister was not consulted. As it turned out, the business included valuable commercial real estate, so the dis- tribution was hot fair 'As your parents get older just discuss with them whether or not they have made a will. It should only be done by an attorney. Without being disrespectful offer to keep an eye on their invest- ments. Far too many times an older person makes a bad invest- inent because they got a convinc- ing sales pitch without consulta- tion of their children, accountant, or attorney. A crook specializes in faking integrity! If nothing else, convince theri to meet with their banker or loan officer \w hom they trust. He or she'is usually weil enough educated to give advice and look for schemes. Wayne C. Switzer, CLU, Realtori:' Due to the heated responses I received from my original 2029 headlines article, I have been encouraged and motivated to detail more specifically local area sequential events. Beset by the forces of nature and abetted by man's attempts at playing God, Lake Woebe- gone,. formerly Lake Okee- chobee, has been designated as the site of the World Mud Bog- ging Championships "by the Soggy Florida Wasteland Man- agement Division, formerly known as the South Florida Water Management District. With the demise of the for- mer lakes aquatic capabilities, a transition of the lake from a tourist magnet to a macabre muck site has precipitated a major cultural and commercial transformation for Clewiston and all other Lake communities. With the loss of the recreational and commercial capabilities of the lake, a major transition to health and beauty related busi- nesses is taking place. All of this based on the discovery that the high chemical loading contents of the lake have medicinal and beauty enhancing capabilities. Former marinas and bait shops are converting to health supplement outlets, as other marine associated businesses. are converting to health spas, specializing in mud packs and related weight loss clinics as the inherent chemicals inhibit appetites. Without the lake, the "Caloosausedtobe," formerly known as the Caloosahatchee River, is now serving as a major excess water storage basin negating several million dollar reservoir projects. This major cost savings is resulting in a major reduction in taxpayer levied taxes and has resulted in the return of thousands of acres back into the tax base and back ts yourword Get Involved into productive agricultural pur- poses. As this major redistribution of tax payer funded revenues is tak- ing place, several annexations, based on reallocation and distri- bution of the burgeoning popu- lation increases, are also under way. Concurrent with the revenue enhancements, a proposition to eliminate district commissioner representation with countywide commissioners is gaining momentum for approval. With this a possibility, Harlem is seeking annexation of Clewis- ton, in anticipation of the upcoming 2030 census projec- tions, and a full measure of: resultant revenue enhancement. Port LaBelle, reacting to simi- lar motivations and emboldened by its population increase to over 30,000 residents, is pro- ceeding with plans to annex LaBelle, excluding Paulsville and the FGCU campus, which had already disannexed from LaBelle. With the conflict of LaBelle's ability to provide utility services for the northwest quadrant, those residents have petitioned for approval of their own city to be called Fort Denaud. Now that we have a full time county planner without "over- taxing" or stretching mutual imaginations beyond any sem- blance of congenial cogitation, I would appreciate hearing what your vision might be for Hendry County in 2029 and beyond. Respectfully, T. W. Bill Neville (Hendry County Citizen and Taxpayer) Thank you So often all you read about are the negative aspects of Hendry County Administration. I would like to speak some positive. I would like to thank all my co-workers at Hendry County- Engineering Office, especially Bonnie Hanshaw for all her words of encouragement and support, the administration staff Judi Kennington-Korf for her prayers, for seeing me through a difficult time. I would like the citi- zens of Hendry County to know that their interests are in the hands of a lot of great and caring people. Most important I would like to thank God for allowing me to be a part of Hendry County's work force. Susan M. Blue Secretary II Hendry County Engineering How do you feel about the Hendry County property tax problem and how do you suggest that it be fixed? Donna Kane said, "I am upset at the S inequity that our property appraiser is allowing because it is unfair. For exam- ple, there is a 1.15 acre piece of prop- erty on the river that is only being taxed $38.12 for property taxes. The reason is because it is listed as agriculture. How- ever, in order for a property to qualify for agricultural exemption it has to be at least 2.5 acres and this property is not 2.5 acres and is not being used- for agriculture. This is prime real estate on the river. Another example: There is a 1.53 acre piece of proper- ty on the river that is only being charged $49.38 for property taxes because it is listed as an agriculture piece of property as well. Yet again, it is not at least 2.5 acres and it is not being used as agriculture and it is a prime piece of property. This is just two examples out of many that I have researched and found so far.-If agri- culture exemption is being granted when it's not sup- posed to it's affecting our taxes and making others pay more than they should to make up for it. I think some- body else needs to run for property appraiser. I told the property appraiser about these properties a year ago and nothing has happened. I will be at both the city and the county meetings with all of this information, as well as appealing my own property taxes." Vickie Austin is a real estate agent at Century 21. She said, "I have a customer who is very upset because he bought an investment property in Port LaBelle and now he can't sell it because the property taxes are so high. It is because the assessed property values are so out of line. I think that they need to lower the property taxes." Sue Williams said, "I have received my ,trim notice and I attended the city com- missioner meeting. I left with the impres- sion that the commissioner's were com- fortable with the 3.5 mill increase before they ever went into the meeting. I felt that it was unnecessary due to the already increased property assessed values." Sonya Murray said, "If the commission- ers could settle for the 3.5 mills then why on Earth did they ask for five? They are running people out of LaBelle. The city and county commissioners are hurting us because people won't be able to afford to live here any more and new people are not going to buy houses because the property taxes are so high."

Caloosa Belle, Thursday, September 21,2006 JV Cowboys stun Tigers ( By Coach Ron Dunbar The LaBelle Cowboys Junior Varsity rallied from a 20-7 halftime deficit to stun the Clewiston Tigers 28-20 on the Tigers home turf last week in high school foot- ball action. After the Tigers took an early 7- 0 first quarter lead the Cowboys responded with an 80-yard drive capped off by quarterback Brian Hull throwing a beautiful 10-yard touchdown strike to wide receiver Hobbs Crockett. Angel Alvarez added the point after to tie the score. It was all Clewiston at that point for the rest of the half as a late Cowboy drive in the closing seconds came up short, with the home team taking a confident 20- 7 lead into the locker room. At the start of the second half you could feel the intensity on the LaBelle sideline, as the Cowboys were determined to turn things around. And that they did as quarter- back Brian Hull connected with fullback Angel Alvarez in the flats and the speedster outran the Tiger secondary for six points. Alvarez then added the point after to pull the visitors within six points 20-14. The Cowboys' defense then came up with the big play that turned the game around as defen- sive tackle Brandon Villareal sacked the Tiger quarterback and forced a fumble to give the. LaBelle team the ball back. It was then running back Dadrian Williams' turn to shor- case his athletic ability as he scored on a 5-yard sweep to tie the game. Al\arez's extra point attempt was wide, though, and the end of the third quarter closed out with the score 20-20. The momentum stayed with the Cowboys in the fourth quarter as they put together another drive that resulted in a 1-yard burst by Alvarez and a 26-20 lead. Just about everything went the Cow- boys' way after that as on the extra point there was a bad snap that led to a wild scramble for the ball before offensive guard Andre Jones scooped it up and ran in for two points and the back breaker for the home team! Williams led the Cowboy rush- ing attack with 12 carries for 90 yards as Alverez added 85 yards on 7 carries. Hull had a good night throwing the ball going 9-18 for 155 vards. Crockett had 3 receptions for 31 yards while tight-end Ricky Rodriguez pulled in 2-for-30 yards and lanker Dorian Deas, added 2- for-20 yards. Alvarez. who also plays line- backer on defense, led the Cow- boys with 7 tackles and an inter- ception. The Cowboy victor\ keeps the LaBelle squad undefeated at 3-0 as they host the Okeechobee Brahmas this Thursday at home al7 p.m. SnewZa p .coml] 1050 Commerce Dr., Suite A, LaBelle, FL 33935 License #CC-C037019 Cowgirls win one, lose one TheLaBelle Cowgirl volleyball team faced the Lemon Bay Manta Rays in a district match up The Cowgirls xent four games 17-25, 18-25,25-1 and 15-25 before los- ing to the Manta Rays.

Call for DeCails! HRMC can provide remote pharmacy coverage Hospitals today need to com- ply with a long list of regulatory standards and be in a constant state of readiness. Having access to pharmacy services on a 24,7 basis is crucial to stay in compliance and meet patient needs. Considering these stan- dards, Hendry Regional Med- Sandy ical Center Woodall became the first hospital in Florida to acquire the services of a Remote Phar- macy. whereby it can provide continuous pharmacy coverage. Physician orders are entered and reviewed during "off" hours, FINANCE medication errors are reduced, and the morning back-log for staff is decreased as a result of the services provided by Pharm- Pro. Market researchers estimated that 88 percent of American hos- pitals have gaps in their pharma- cy coverage at some time during nights or weekends and tradi- tional staffing is not a cost-effec- tive option for many of these facilities. Sandy \Voodall, the Pharma- cy Director at HRMC, stated, "With the Remote Pharmacy services, the staff can now tap into a seamless, around-the- clock, remote order entry and prescription verification service when the need arises, without a gap in pharmacy coverage. The hospital remains in compliance Regional Medical Center stands and fills patient needs safely behind their motto, "It's all and reliably." Staff-says, Hendry about getting better."
