Three Students Arrested For Shooting Threat


By Jacob Bembry
Greene Publishing, Inc.
Three Madison County High
School underclassmen were ar-
rested on felony counts after
confessing to planting notes on
campus, which caused the
school to go into lockdown on
Friday, February 15.
The three students have
been identified as Nicholas Ed-
ward Leslein, 17; Jessica Mae
Noe, 16; and Rey Anna McGuire,
15.
The notes, which were found
in several locations around the
school, indicated that there
would be a shooting that would
take place during sixth period.
Noe and Leslein were
charged with written threats
and conspiracy to write threats,


which are both felonies.
McGuire was charged with
conspiracy to write threats.
All three of the students
were charged with disruption
of a school function, which is
a misdemeanor.
According to School Re-
source Officer Sgt. Charlie
Dickey, after discussion and
encouragement among the
three students, they decided to
go through with the plan.
Dickey said that through
interviews with students on
campus and with the aide of
the school's security surveil-
lance video, they found
enough cause to arrest the
three.
All three students were ar-
rested and booked. They were


released to their parents due to
not having enough points to be
jailed at the time.


Law officers informed stu-
dents and parents at that time
that they had been suspended


from school by the administra-
tion. They were instructed not

City Of Madison Plans

To Exempt Church

From Impact Fees


Flu Season



Strikes Madison


By Tyrra B Meserve :
Greene Publishing, Inc.
'All around Madison, the
sounds of cdughs, sniffles and
sneezes can be heard heralding
in the flu season.,Babies with
drippy noses are being strolled
down grocery store aisles by
mommies with scratchy eyes
and throats. Daycares and
classrooms are turning into
breeding pools of virus muta-
tions, passed on toys by little
hands that were taught to
share. Doctors' office waiting
rooms are filling up with peo-


ple who want the flu shot or
want to know why the one they
had isn't working. Happily
multiplying, the flu marches
on, with not so much as a pass-
ing glance back at the snuffling
sufferers it has left in its wake.
Constantly changing, each new
year brings new challenges for
finding a way to beat the bug.
The influenza virus, or
more commonly called the flu,

At the regular meeting of
the Madison City Commission-
ers on February 12, Mt Olive
Baptist Church won a planned-
waiver of water and sewer im-
pact fees by a unanimous vote.
The fees would have been
charged on an annexation to
the present church facility.
Rev. Greg Ragans presented
the request for exemption. The
ordinance setting the fees ex-
empts existing business along
the route of the utility lines
from the city to Interstate 10,
but does not exempt other enti-
ties. Mt. Olive is the only
church situated along the route
at present.
Ragans said that the annex-
ation will help the church to
aid children and young people
living in the area, but the fees
would make the cost prohibi-
tive.
Commissioners Sumpter
James said, "I think we ought
to exempt churches."
Commissioners Judy
Townsend added, "If we had
thought about it at the time, we
would have included existing
churches in the ordinance."
James and Townsend


moved to amend the ordinance
so that existing churches are
exempt from the fees. The
amendment will state that Mt.
Olive will not waive annexa-
tion if the city should expand
that far, and that the church
will allow the city to use a
small part of its grounds to
service the city spray field
across Hwy. 53 from the
church.
The motion passed without
dissent. City Attorney Clay
Schnitker will present the
amendment at the March 11
meeting for its first reading.
Following the vote, Deloris
Jones commended the board for
assisting Mt. Olive. "They are
working with all races,
everybody in that area. They
are doing what Jesus would
do," she said.
In other business, the board
approved an interlocal agree-
ment with Lee, Greenville,
Madison County and the Madi-
son County School District to
have developers pay impact fees
for additional students. Public
Works Supervisor Chuck Hitch-

voice to reach out to oth-
ers, Pitts has traveled the
world spreading the mes-
sage of his love of Jesus
Christ.
Only four years old
when he first started
singing, Pitts was very
young when he first real-
ized that Jesus loved him.
He started to sing
in church and then
began to sing profes-
sionally when he was
just 17. Performing in
over 5,000 concerts he
has reached people
around the globe by
lifting souls with
tenor.
"My message is a
message of comfort,"
Pitts said "The people


that I reach out to are
sick; or have lost loved
ones, or are dealing with
bitterness in their life,
people that hurt. That's
what God has laid upon
my heart and he has giv-
en me that purpose."
As Pitts' engaging
voice stretches to more of


his fellow man, the
stronger his calling be-
comes. With his career
taking off, he has now
had his third callback
with the Metropolitan
Opera in New York City,
and has been asked to
sing at the Vatican.
"That's the whole


purpose of my life," says
Pitts "That's why I live
and breathe. If you can
make a difference in
somebody's life, it doesn't
get any better than that."

Letters to the Editor are typed word for word,
comma for comma, as sent to this newspaper.

I would like to ask the citizens of Madison County
and those affected by the recent spread of panic at
Madison County High School, how far is too far? Based
on the recent events of school shootings I am glad to
know that our school system doesn't take too lightly to
the threat of their students, but those who are innocent
are the ones who have gotten "terrorized" by this recent
tirade. At 1:00 pm on Tuesday, the parents of Courtney
Cote were called to an emergency meeting at the MCHS
campus and upon arrival they were told that on Friday
during the search, a small knife had been found inside
their daughter's vehicle. A knife that is responsible for
working a gate at her job as a Quail Farm hand. Her par-
ents were then informed that Courtney would be ex-
pelled and would not be able, to return-to school. This is
an Honor roll student who is responsible enough to have
a job and take both college and AP courses during her
school career.. Her parents were immediately infuriated
and the only advice that they were given was to send her
to the Excel school. Courtney has been nothing but an
excellent student and wonderful asset to our future and
with one blink of ignorance all of those things that she
has worked so hard to maintain have been snatched
away Don't get me wrong, we are appreciative that the
school system is looking after our kids, but why on
earth would you jeopardize the future of someone who
has such goals and promises. Another thing that keeps
me wondering is why did the school wait until Tuesday
to notify her parents while others were notified on the
spot? That is just something to keep you guessing about
how policies work while you ask yourself that question
of how far is too far? Speaking of policies, when I jour-
neyed online to check out the school's student code of
conduct and policies, it had not .been updated since
March of 2006. I'm sure a few things have changed since
then.
Sincerely,

The proud family and friends of Courtney Cote

During election years,
many feel forced to choose
the lesser of evils. Charged
with getting to know lead-
ership in a relatively brief
period among a flurry of
conflicting informa-
tion, voters, struggle
to get a grasp on
the man or
woman in ques-
tion while also
trying to un-
derstand the is-
sues of the day.
Often this
consideration
and compromise
are so confounding
that selections are ulti-
mately based on little more
than frustrated whimsy
By taking the process to its
simplest level however, one
can form reasonable opin-
ions about those around
them and in doing so devel-
op a framework for the big-
ger decisions.
In his earliest years as
a writer, Benjamin
Franklin, operating under
the pseudonym, Silence
Dogood, penned an opinion
that has timeless relevance
to discerning others, espe-
cially in the context of pub-
lic good.
.So we asked Mr. Franklin
the question: How do we
judge others to determine
those we should make part


of our lives or follow?
B e n j a m i n
Franklin...In his own
Words:
"It has been for some
time a question with me:
whether a community suf-
fers more by hypocritical
pretenders to reli-
gion, or by the
Openly profane?
But some late
Thoughts of
this question
have inclined
t me. to think
that the hyp-
ocrite is the
most danger-
ous person of
the two, especially
if he sustains a post in
the government, and we
consider his conduct as it
regards the public.
"Upon the whole we
must not judge of one an-
other by their best actions;
since the worst of men do
some good, and all men
make fine professions; but
we must judge of men by
the whole of their conduct,
and the effects of it.
"Thorough honesty re-
quires great and long
proof, since many a man,
long thought honest, has at
length proved a knave.
And it is from judging
without proof, or false
proof, that mankind con-
tinue unhappy"
Choose wisely.

A Blood Drive, Baseball,

Gospel Music And

A Beauty Pageant

This past weekend was busy for some people in Lee.
Friday began with a blood drive at Lee Town Hall as
people lined up to donate blood to the American Red
Cross.
Friday also saw Elvoye and Betty Thomas going to
Tampa to watch their grandson, Daniel Thomas, pitch
for the University of South Florida Bulls against Indi-
ana State. According to the USF website: "Junior hurler
Daniel Thomas was sharp in his first outing since
March 17, 2007, after recovering from a season-ending
arm injury last year. He threw five scoreless innings,
tossing 73 pitches while allowing one hit and striking
out seven Sycamore batters. Thomas was harnessed on
the evening by a pitch count put on by the USF coaching
staff."
The Bulls won the game by a 4-2 score over the
Sycamores.
Saturday night, there was a gospel sing at Midway
Church of God. The Jeff Treece Band played to a packed
house.
Lee Worship Center will host a gospel concert on
Friday, March 7, at 7 p.m. This is an open microphone
sing and benefits the building fund of the church. Any-
one who sings or plays an instrument is encouraged to
go to it. The church is located at 397 SE Magnolia Drive
in Lee. For more information, call 971-4135. They will
also have a pot luck supper and celebrate birthdays and
anniversaries with a cake and fellowship.
The Miss Lee Pageant is scheduled for Saturday,
March 8, at 6 p.m. at the Van H. Priest Auditorium.
That's all the news for this week! Have a great week
and a beautiful forever! May God bless each and every


one of you!

The glaring
weakness of the De-
mocrat Party is
that they don't take N
national security -
my stock in trade S
seriously. In re- 4
turn, they cry foul j
and repeat the
mantra, "We sup- Gu
port the troops" ...
-yada, yada, yada.
So, let me give you a
specific recent example where
Democrats placed other inter-
ests, such as campaign contri-
butions from trial lawyers,
above the security of our na-
tion and people.
The issue is FISA or the
Foreign Intelligence Surveil-
lance Act. You might recall
that I wrote about this subject
recently Well, since that time,
FISA has expired as of Febru-
ary 15th, and our intelligence
agencies can no longer moni-
tor al-Qaeda communications
without a special court order.
Of course that takes time
which in-the intelligence busi-
ness is everything. So, how
did this lax in security occur?
Six months ago, the De-
mocrat leadership in Con-
gress allowed a temporary ex-
tension.of this thirty year old
legislation. The stumbling
block then" and now is
whether or not to grant im-
munity to telecommunication
companies, such as Bell
South and Verizon, from law-
suits if they make a mistake
and incorrectly monitor an
innocent phone number. Sim-
ply put, we cannot monitor
the communications of our
enemies without the coopera-
tion of the telecommunica-
tions industry and they aren't
going to help if they risk mul-
ti-million dollar lawsuits in
the process.
On the other side of this
legal tug-of-war are trial
lawyers that see these compa-
nies as a great "cash cow," re-
ceiving billions of dollars reg-
ularly from their subscribing
customers. That's a rich tar-
get for trial lawyers that fore-
see unending litigation and
high payouts.
Now, I probably don't
need to tell you which party
the trial lawyers favor in the
political sweepstakes, do I?
Well, let me remove any doubt
in your mind -- in the time
frame that 66 law firms suing
telecommunications compa-
nies have donated $1.5 million
to 44 Democrats in the Senate,
they have reserved about
$4,000 for Republicans. That's
a disparity of about 400 to
one!
The Senate took up this
issue in the last few weeks
and passed a new FISA with
retroactive immunity for the
telecommunications industry
by a bi-partisan vote of 68-29.
More on that vote later. Next,
it went to the House of Repre-
sentatives where the Democ-
rat leadership took no action,
let the act expire and went
home on recess for two weeks.
Presumably, they will address
the issue when they return,
but there is no guarantee.
Meanwhile, the politicians


national

security
De Boyles
lest Columnist


(t.' ~


who claim to support the
troops have placed our nation-
al security at risk.
Back to the Senate vote: of
the 29 who voted against the
revised act, all were Democ-
rats. Twenty-two of the 29 re-
ceived generous contribu-
tions from trial lawyers. I
won't bother, to name 'them
here, but you might have fig-
ured out by now that they are
the most liberal Democrats
that trial lawyer money can
buy
You might wonder how
the front runners in the presi-
dential sweepstakes voted.
Neither Barack Obama nor
Hillary Clinton could inter-
rupt their campaigning to
make this important vote.
Since they are both heavily-.
subsidized by trial lawyers,
you might conclude that they
would have voted against the


legislation, but
there is no way to
know for sure.
John McCain did
interrupt his cam-
paigning for the
Republican nomi-
nation and re-
turned to Wash-
ington to vote in fa-
vor of the bill. On
the home front,
both of Florida's


senators voted in favor of the
new FISA. Good for them.
Since Speaker Pelosi and
Majority Leader Hoyer chose
to shelve the bill until a later
date, I cannot report how our
congressional delegation will
vote on this matter. If and
when that happens, I'll let you
know.
Remember this: actions
speak much louder than
words. This is especially true
with politicians that have
been known to talk a blue
streak while accomplishing
little. In this case,'the actions
(or more precisely inaction)
of Democrats speak Volumes
about the weight they place
on national security Appar-
ently the support of trial
lawyers far outweighs any
threat of danger to the Amer-
ican people.

FLU


late each year, causing ill-
ness. Peak flu season falls
between November and
April, where each year, all
across the U.S., as many as
60 million people come
down with the flu. Al-
though children are more
prone to it, any age group
can catch the flu virus.
The flu virus is ex-
tremely contagious. Passed
from one person to another
through the air by sneez-
ing, coughing, or speaking,
it can also be spread by
touching objects an infect-
ed person has touched. A
person carrying the flu
virus is contagious from
one day before to five days
after symptoms appear,
meaning the virus can be
passed before an individ-
ual realizes they are ill. Flu
epidemics are often started
in schools, moving quickly
throughout the community
as children then spread the
virus to parents and family
members, who in turn give
it to the people around
them. A bad outbreak can
mean as many as 20 to 50
percent of the people in
any given area become ill.
Flu symptoms include
headache, fever, chills,
muscle aches, dry cough-
ing, and congestion. The
fever and achiness usually
disappears within two to
three. days, however the
stuffy nose, sore throat,
cough and fatigue can last
up to a week or more.
Though the flu does some-
times include abdominal
pain, vomiting and diar-
rhea, if these symptoms
are present without any
other flu symptoms, most
likely the individual is suf-
fering from gastroenteri-


tis.
Because the influenza
virus mutates yearly and
undergoes a major change
every ten years, recipes for
new vaccines are being re-
formulated each year as
well. Normally from 70 to
90 percent effective, in
some cases the flu vaccine
for a particular year is in-
effective against certain
strains. Each year the flu
infects up to 20 percent of
the population, hospital-
izes 200,000 and causes
death in 36,000. Finding
vaccine components that
will be a good match to the
viruses circulating is a
challenge for the nation's
influenza experts, who try
to predict which strains
will be the most damaging
each year.
It is recommended that
the vulnerable to get vacci-
nated early on to hopefully
prevent serious outbreaks.
For children between six to
59 months of age, persons
50 and over and anyone
with medical conditions
such as asthma, heart dis-
ease or sickle cell, doctors
recommend getting the flu
shot as soon as possible.
"We are still offering
flu shots," said Nicki
Macarages, Interview Spe-
cialist at the Madison
County Health Clinic We
highly suggest them. Peo-
ple can come in Monday,
through Friday, anytime
from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. or 1
p.m. to 3:30 p.m."
If already suffering
from the flu, the best care a
body can get is lots of bed-
rest. Clear liquids, espe-
cially water, helps the body
flush its system of impuri-
ties and also help keep the


body hydrated. Staying
home and getting some
rest can speed the body's
ability to recuperate. Ac-
etaminophen or ibuprofen
can help with certain
symptoms, however as-
pirin or any products con-
taining aspirin should be
avoided, particularly with
small children, as it has
been shown to put young
people at a greater risk of
developing Reye syndrome.
If it is the flu being
passed around the house-
hold, a call to the doctor
probably isn't necessary
unless complications de-
velop or the sufferer al-
ready has a preexisting
medical condition. To
avoid getting sick altogeth-
er, these simple practices
can serve well on the fight
to stay well. Wash hands
frequently avoid sharing
cups, utensils and other
eating implements, and do

buy her book.
Brookshire's extensive exper-
tise and celebrity on both top-
ics is due in large part to her
surviving a marriage to a
man who had and hid his
AIDS from her until he was,
in a very advanced stage.
Amazingly, Brookshire
not only survived the rela-
tionship; she forgave her hus-
band for the deceit, nursing


him until his death. And
more unbelievable than that,
she tested negative for HIY
attributing it to her faith and
lifestyle, especially the im-
mune strength brought about
by her diet.
Brookshire practices
naturopathy which is a sys-
tem of therapy and treatment
relying on natural remedies,
such as sunlight, air and wa-


ter, and of course diet. "You
are what you eat, literally,"
she boldly stated.
She also recalled a front-
page story several years be-
fore her marriage to her late
husband regarding AIDS
awareness in minority coim-
munities that was mostly ig-
nored. Conversely she has
made it a life mission to en-
sure others do hear the cry so
many missed and have suf-
fered immeasurably from the
lack of information.
Brookshire has also since
remarried, and now, among
other professional pursuits,
offers health counseling. And
based on the audience re-
sponse to her lecture, she is
making a serious impact, tru-
ly changing lives in the
process.
"Our entire existence is
part of glorious cycles that the
Creator set in motion. What
we eat, what we do or don't
eliminate, what we drink and
our sleep are all part of this
process. They all have a
tremendous affect on our
health. I studied under a
physician, a full medical doc-
tor who also practiced natur-
opathy and he would ask pa-
tients questions like, 'So, how
long have you been doing dia-
betes?' implying that it is a
personal choice to contract
chronic illnesses. In other
words, it's our choice and it's
almost completely pre-
ventable," Brookshire ex-
plained.

yet very persuasive, discus-
sion, which including detailed
references to aspartame, wa-
ter and pork, also included

Smart Portfolio Moves for Your
Retirement Years
Provided by Brad Bashaw, Edward Jones
For most of your working years, your investment
strategies, by and large, will probably revolve around
achieving sufficient growth to help you meet your long-
term goals, such as college for your kids and a comfortable
retirement But once you are retired, you cant just sit back
and put your investment portfolio on "autopilot_"-'. -,
What types of portfolio moves should you makfe-ias^
retiree? Here are a few possibilities:
Generate Your Own Paycheck. When you're
retired, you can collect Social Security and receive distri-
butions from your 401(k) and IRA. But.you'll also proba-
bly need to generate some income from your investment
portfolio. Consequently, you'll need to own the appropri-
ate mix of investments, including stocks that have the
potential to pay dividends, bonds and Certificates of
Deposit (CDs).
Protect against inflation. Even if you do need some
of your investments to provide you with an income
stream, you can't ignore the need for growth because
you'll have to contend with inflation. Consider this:
Everything you buy today will cost about twice as much
in 25 years, assuming a 3 percent annual inflation rate. In
other words, if you need $75,000 a year to retire comfort-
ably now, you'll need about $150,000 per year in 25 years
to maintain your standard of living. And with advances in
medical treatments leading to longer life spans, it's entire-
ly possible that you could spend 25 years or more in
retirement *
To fight inflation, then, you will need at least some
exposure to stocks, which offer the potential to provide
returns greater than the inflation rate. While it's true that by
investing in stocks, you can lose some, or all, ofyour prin-
cipal, you may be able to reduce your risk level by buying
quality stocks and holding them for the long term. You can
also help protect yourself against inflation through other
investments. Your financial advisor can help you choose
the investments that are appropriate for your needs.
Leave a legacy. As you may know, the estate tax laws
are in flux. In 2008, the estate tax exemption amount the
amount you can pass to your heirs, free of estate taxes is
$2 million. This figure rises to $3.5 million in 2009. Then,
in 2010, the estate tax disappears -for one year only. And
unless Congress changes the laws before then, in 2011 the
exemption amount will revert to $1 million, with a maxi-.
mum estate tax rate of 55 percent.
How could you help your family cope with a poten-
tial estate tax burden? You could make some "tactical"
moves, such as rolling over your 401 (k) to an IRA, which,
when passed on to your heirs, could be "stretched" for
years to reduce the tax bite. You could also reduce the size
of your taxable estate by making gifts to family members
and charitable organizations. Before making either of
these moves, though, consult with your tax and legal advi-
sors.
Clearly, there are many portfolio considerations for
retirees. So, when you're nearing retirement, start planning
ahead. By making the right moves, you can make your
"golden years" considerably brighter.
***Edward Jones does not offer tax or legal advice. You should consult
with a competent tax or legal adviser for your specific situation.

Parris Island, South Carolina on Decem-
ber 6, 1977.
The 14-week boot camp left a lasting
impression on the two and their direct
their lives from that point on. On Janu-
ary 24, Stewart and Cone, along with
their wives, Kim and Lindy, traveled
back to Parris Island for the first time in
30 years. The purpose of the trip was to
celebrate the 30-year anniversary Upon
arrival on the island, everything looked
a lot smaller but just as serious as it did
back then. While on the island, they
were able to visit the Marine Corps mu-


seum, several monuments and tour all
four training battalions located on the
base.
The best part of the visit, according
to Stewart, was being able to go back to
the notorious receiving barracks.
"This is where the new recruits get
to meet the drill instructors that they
will spend the next fourteen weeks
with," Stewart said.
Above the doors is the inscription,
"Through these doors pass the prospects
for the world's finest fighting force the
United States Marine Corps." There is
about a 60 percent completion rate for
the recruits.

Leaders of the Department of Children and Fami-
lies were in Gainesville to congratulate Alachua County
officials and community activists for receiving a grant
award of nearly $1 million. This grant will provide com-
munity substance abuse and mental health treatment

.matched dollar for dollar by local resources. Alachua's
grant award is just one of 22 matching grants statewide
given through the Florida Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Corporation to those areas striving to address
their community needs for substance abuse and mental
health services.
"We are excited to be here with community mem-
;bers who recognize the importance of this issue," said
Deputy Secretary Don Winstead. "These grants allow
communities to focus on service programs that stress
prevention and early intervention, but most important-
ly is that we are making treatment available to this
greatly under served population."
The grant awards are part of the Criminal Justice,
Mental Health and Substance Abuse Reinvestment Act
-ah'd'airt which passed.during the 2007 -egislative Ses-
sion. The Act addresses the need for specialized pro-
grams for individuals with mental health, substance

Just when you thought
you knew everything there
was to know about the
birth control pill, think
again!
Since its development
more than 45 years ago,
"the Pill" has become the
single most-widely used
birth control method. In
fact, a recent survey re-
ported that more than 80
percent of American
women have taken the Pill
at some time in their lives.
Over its history, the
Pill has changed. Even
though most women are
aware of the Pill, many
myths about the Pill per-
sist. Plus, as there are so
many options to choose
from, selecting the right
pill can be confusing.
To help young women
,navigate the basics of the
'birth control pill, author
and television host of "The


Modern Girl's Guide to
Life," Jane Buckingham,
has teamed up with
women's health expert Va'-

Pill" includes educational
information and advice to
help women understand
how the Pill works and
how to use it safely.
"Today, many women
want a Pill that prevents
pregnancy, and offers pre-
dictable periods and a low
rate of breakthrough
bleeding," said Dr. Schulz.
"But, not all birth control
pills are the same. That is
why it's important for
women to understand the
facts about birth control
pills, and how to talk with
their healthcare profes-
sional about their op-
tions."
Divided into five sec-
tions, the Guide includes:
basic facts and virtual
tools to show how the Pill
works; details about avail-
able options; potential
benefits from the Pill; step-
by-step instruction on how
to read the patient label
for risk information; and
tips on what to expect
from a visit with a health-
care professional.
"Today's Modern Girls
strive to be the best they
can be and crave informa-
tion, particularly about
how they can take more
control of their health,"
said Ms. Buckingham.
"The Modern .Girl's
Guide to the Pill' is a great
starting point for a deeper
understanding and a better
dialogue with a healthcare
professional about the Pill."

cussing the top-five myths

MEGA TENT EVENT IN PERRY -

SHOWING CONSUMERS THE RIGHT
WAY TO BUY NOW!

FEDERAL RATE CUT PROVIDES UNPRECEDENTED LENDING OPPORTUNITY;
CONSUMERS ADVISED TO BUY VEHICLES BEFORE RECESSION

FED RATE CUT PROVIDES UNPRECEDENTED OPPORTUNITY FOR CONSUMERS
The U.S. Federal Reserve boosted consumer hopes and comforted Wall Street investors by slashing interest rates by three-quarters of
a percentage point to 3.5 percent in an effort to save the economy from a recession. The economic stimulus plan represented the larg-
est single-day cut in a key interest rate in 25 years. The historic interest rate cut was designed to encourage consumer spending and
energize the nation's economy. Shortly after the Fed announced a reduction of its federal funds rate to 3.5 percent from 4.25 percent,
most major banks reduced their prime lending rates by the same amount. Since the Fed rate affects how much consumers pay on
credit card debt, home equity lines of credit and auto loans, economists predict that consumers' monthly debt obligations should slide
along with the rate cut. Fdr consumers, the three-quarter point federal funds rate cut will mean lower interest rates on credit purchas-
es, including those of automobiles. According to Ford CEO Alan Mulally, the rate cut "gives the auto financing companies the ability
to really bring some more credit into the marketplace...it's going to help consumer confidence". This means that if you buy a car in the
next few months, the payments will be substantially lower than they would have been without this drop. Moreover, the rate reduction
will allow manufacturers to offer financing incentive programs to prospective new-car buyers at lower interest rates.
DEALERS DESPERATE TO SELL VEHICLES As Little as a $99/month! *
The current opportunity to obtain low interest rate consumer loans comes at a time when dealers are desperate moving to sell vehicles
through unprecedented rebate and incentive programs. Prior to the historic cut in the Federal Reserve's rate cut, automobile dealerships
had suffered due to the rumored housing slump and rising gasoline prices. Moreover, competition between foreign and domestic manufac-
turers has reached an epic pitch, giving consumers leverage when shopping for new vehicles. GM, Ford and Chrysler have been forced to
boost incentives to maintain sales volume amid weak consumer confidence and increased competition from foreign manufacturers.
CONSUMERS ADVISED TO BUY NOW BEFORE LOOMING RECESSION CAUSES SPIKE IN INTEREST RATES.
The current rate cut has provided consumers a unique, limited opportunity to obtain low interest loans. Consumers are advised to take
advantage of this historic lending opportunity before the looming recession arrives. Indeed, a spike in the federal funds rate coupled
with write-offs from the housing slump may impact banks' willingness to lend. Should a recession occur later in the year, consumers
shall face a much more difficult time getting auto loans due to more stringent credit standards. Thus, the current fed rate cut may pro-
vide consumers with the best opportunity to obtain advantageous vehicle financing. Terry Egan, editor in chief of publications for The
Warren Group, which tracks real-estate transactions, agreed, pointing to the combined benefits of lower prices and lower short-term
interest rates. "For someone ready to make the leap, that's two bits of good news in terms of buying opportunity," he said.






LOWER INTEREST RATE + NO MONEY DOWN PROGRAMS + LOWER
PAYMENTS = TIME TO BUY NOW!
Every vehicle in inventory will be clearly marked with its drastically lowered price or payment. Bank representatives will be available to as-
sist all buyers during this very special event. Even those buyers whose credit may have been damaged in the past will have an opportunity
to take advantage of this incredible market condition. A stable job and residence is all that is required to begin process of any transaction.
The Perry Tent Sale will be fully staffed February 27 March 2,2008 as attendance is expected to be in record breaking numbers. As with
most special sales, the selection will diminish throughout the event so come early to take full advantage of the entire inventory available.
