County fares
better than state
average, but
some third-grade
scores drop
BY RITA HART
Staff writer
STUART The second
wave of Florida Compre-
hensive Assessment Test
scores, in reading and
math for Martin County
third-grade students, were
released May 2.
Although the scores
show the students to have
fared better than the state
average, the scores indi-
cate the lowest percentage


of children reading at or
above grade level since
2003. Ten of 11 Martin
County elementary
schools had a drop in
scores this year with
respect to the percentage
of children reading at or
above grade level.
Terri D'Albora is the
director of School
Improvement and Cur-
riculum for the Martin
County School District.
She said one of the things
the district looks at is the
result for the entire state.
"We know the state
dropped as well, so there
was a trend to drop in
some areas," said Mrs.
D'Albora. "We scored sig-
nificantly above the state


guards," sat with him in
the cafeteria during a
lunch in his honor last
week. A smile never left
his face, as he greeted
other medical center
employees who continu-
ously told him how much
he would be missed.
In 1939, when he was
23, Mr. Scott was hired as.
a gardener at Martin
Memorial, the same year
he moved to Martin
County.
"When I came, this area
was just a bunch of
woods, mostly Australian
pines. Now it's just a big
city," said Mr. Scott.
Several years ago, a gar-
den on the Martin Memo-
rial campus was dedicat-
ed to him.


average and maintained
that in reading and math.
In fact, our math scores
went up," said Mrs. D'Alb-
ora.
The scores are assessed
on a level of one through
five, with level three being
considered "proficient."
If a student scores at
level one, they are at risk
of not being promoted,
and must attend a sum-
mer reading program, at
the conclusion of which
they are tested again.
"If they then perform at
or above grade-level, they
can then pass," said
Delores Oliver Calloway,
executive director of
instructional services for
the Martin County School


In his 68 years with Mar-
tin Memorial, Mr. Scotu
has also been employed as
an orderly, a licensed
practical nurse during
which time he helped
deliver babies and most
recently as a clerk in med-
ical records, a job he
claims to have enjoyed the
most.
Each year, Martin
Memorial holds an Asso-
ciate Recognition Cele-
bration to honor their
employees. This year it
was held on April 24 at the
Lyric Theatre, and as in
every year before, Mr.
Scott won the top honor
for having the longest
tenure.

'We scored significantly above the state
average and maintained that in reading and
math. In fact, our math scores went up."
Terri D'Albora
Director of School Improvement and Curriculum


District.
In addition, if a student.
meets one of six "good
cause" exemptions, he or
she may be promoted to
the next grade. These
exemptions apply only to
third-graders. Ms. Cal-
loway said one of those
exemptions applies to stu-
dents who have been in
the country for less than
two years and are still
learning to speak English.

news not

BY RITA HART
Staff writer
As this year's drought con-
tinues and pushes Lake Okee-'
chobee to a record low level,
most Treasure Coast residents
are aware of the need to con-
serve water.
What may not be common
knowledge, however, are
some of the benefits the
drought is offering to area
waters and wildlife.
Linette Trabulsy, lead com-
munity outreach coordinator
for South Florida Water Man-
agement District's Martin and
St. Lucie Service Center,
recently responded to ques-
tions posed by the Hometown
News.
Q: The surficial and Florida
aquifers are replenished by
rainwater. What will happen
to our water supply if we have
another dry season?
A: In 2006, the Martin/St.
Lucie Basin received only
33.70 inches of rain, approxi-
mately 61 percent of the
basin's historical average,
which was the area's second-
lowest annual rain total on
record dating back to 1915.
Lake Okeechobee is
approaching the all-time low
record level of 8.97 feet
recorded in 2001. The Mar-
tin/St. Lucie area, as well as

very important that every-
one do their part to conserve
water, one of our most pre-
cious resources.
Q: Lake Okeechobee is
approaching its all-time low-
est level. What are the envi-
ronmental effects of the lake
drying up?
A: Residents and water
users in the Lower East
Coast, including Palm
Beach, Broward, Dade,
Glades and Monroe coun-
ties, rely heavily on Lake
Okeechobee for back- up
supply of drinking water.
Additionally, canals in the
Lower East Coast must
remain at a consistent level
to ensure that salt water
intrusion doesn't occur in
eastern seaboard wells.
On a positive note, the Dis-
trict is taking advantage of
the low lake levels to db
some much- needed
lakebed dredging/scraping
as well as controlled bums.
The District is working in
cooperation with Florida
Fish and Wildlife Conserva-
tion Commission and
Glades County to remove
organic muck sediment
from areas near Fish Eating
Bay, Hamey Pond Canal,
Eagle Bay, Bay Bottom and in
the northwest marsh.
Also, shorebirds and other
creatures are benefiting from
the dry season. A recent sur-
vey of shorebirds was held
around the Lake Okee-
chobee area to see how
many, if any, were nesting in
the newly exposed shores.
The Audubon survey team
counted more than 10,000
birds. Most of the birds were
peeps including more than
400 stilt sandpipers and
morph than 600 long-billed
dowitchers.
Q: Are there any environ-
mental benefits to the
drought, especially since
Lake Okeechobee is no
longer being discharged into
the St. Lucie River?
A: The St. Lucie Estuary
has not had any releases
from Lake Okeechobee since


April 2006. Sea grasses and
oysters are rebounding from
the damage done during
hurricanes Frances, Jeanne
and Wilma in 2004 and 2005.
Salinity levels and clarity are
greater now than in previous
years.
Q: Other than reducing
the watering of lawns, what
can residents do to save
water?
A. Save water outdoors by
landscaping with drought
tolerant plants using the
Xeriscape landscaping; posi-
tion sprinklers so water
lands on lawn and shrubs,
not paved areas; raise the
lawn mower blade to at least
three inches or its highest
level; use a rain gauge to
avoid over-watering the
lawn; avoid over-fertilizing
lawns; use mulch to retain
moisture in the soil; use a
broom or blower instead of a
hose to clean leaves or drive-
way; use a shut-off nozzle on
hoses; use a commercial car
wash that recycles water;
when washing cars, make
sure to park on the grass and
use a hose with an automatic
shut-off nozzle.
Save water indoors by not
pouring water down the
drain and instead use it for
watering indoor plants or
gardens;. repair dripping
faucets one drop per sec-
ond wastes 2,700 gallons of
water per year; take shorter
showers; turn off the water
while shaving or brushing
teeth; operate dishwashers
and washing machines only
when they are fully loaded;
store drinking water in the
refrigerator; avoid flushing
the toilet unnecessarily -
dispose of tissues, insects
and other similar waste in
the trash rather than the toi-
let.
Q: Wal-mart has part-
nered with SWFMD to pro-
vide public service
announcements regarding
restrictions in their
stores. What other business-
es, if any, are joining in the
efforts?

A: The District is creatively
partnering with local gov-
ernments, businesses and
residents to make sure that
the water restrictions are
enforced and that residents
are informed about the
rules. In St. Lucie County, the
government access channel
SLCTV and the local utilities
created a Q&A show that is
airing county-wide.
Additionally, both Martin
and St. Lucie county televi-
sion stations have aired
public service announce-
ments distributed by the
District. Radio stations up
and dowri the coast have
aired water restriction pub-
lic service announcements.
The Florida Nursery,
Growers and Landscape
Association has partnered
with the District recently
launching "GrowSmart," a
public awareness campaign
that encourages water-wise
landscaping and promotes
the use of "the right plant for
the right place."
The Martin/St. Lucie Ser-
vice Center staff is also plan-
ning efforts to reach school-
aged children with the water
conservation message. The
District has an active Speak-
ers Bureau not only inWest

lan Coppock, executive chef aboard the Nina provides a tour as well as a history lesson to the students of Morningside
Academy Thursday, May 3. El Nina, a replica of one of Christopher Columbus' three ships was docked at Harborage
Marina last week after sailing from South America.


School children travel back in time


while stepping aboard the Nina


BY RITA HART
Staff writer
STUART Seventy-five
third- and fourth-grade stu-
dents from Morningside
Academy in Port St. Lucie
stepped on board the Nifina
at the Harborage Yacht Club
Marina on April 3, and
immediately stepped back
to 1492, when Columbus
sailed the ocean blue.
The students received a
guided tour of the Nifia, a
replica ship that sailed from
Brazil for the first time in
1991. The ship was built
entirely by hand and is an
historically accurate repro-
duction of what Christopher
Columbus' ship looked like
when she sailed from the


Canary Islands in 1492.
The tour was led by one of
the ship's, crew, Ian Cop-
pock, who also serves as the
ship's cook. Mr. Coppock, a
native of Alabama, has been
with the Nifia for seven
months. He is trained as an
executive chef, and said he
decided to volunteer for a
tour with the Nifia as a way
to "de-stress."
Mr. Coppock gave the stu-
dents a history lesson while
on board the Nifia, first ask-
ing the students if they knew
the names of all three of
Christopher Columbus'
ships. Their hands flew into
the air as some responded
in unison, "the Nifia, the
Pinta, and the Santa Maria."
The students, on board


with their teachers Kam
Combs, Sharon Turner and
Tami Mateer, learned that
the Nifia was Columbus'
favorite ship, a cargo vessel
known as a caravel.
As they stood on board,
they were able to peer below
through an open grate into
the cargo area, where the
children could see the crew
hard at work. In Columbus'
day, they learned, the cargo
area was a place that housed
one year's worth of food and'
water, along with livestock
such as pigs, chickens, goats
and even horses. Most of the
animals were a source of
food for the crew, but the
horses were used so the offi-
cers on board could ride
them ashore.


"The officers had to be
elevated so they could be
seen as a higher power,"
explained Mr. Coppock.
The children were sur-
prised to learn that in
Columbus' day, the average
age of the crew was 12.
"People started their lives
much earlier and didn't live
as long in the 15th century,"
said Mr. Coppock.
Mr. Coppock explained
that the threat of mutiny
against Christopher Colum-
bus did exist as the Nifia
traveled more than 25,000
miles toward the New
World, partially because
many of the young crew
believed the world was flat

Third-time theft was not the charm

Having had success twice in the theft of flat screen tele-
visions from Wal-Mart, a shoplifter and his accomplice
returned to the store at 4001 S. Federal Highway to try a
third time.
Unfortunately for them, Wal-Mart store personnel and
Stuart police were waiting.
The first two thefts of 37-inch Magnavox LCD televi-
sions occurred on April 30 and May 2.
When the suspects returned to the store for a third time
on May 4, store personnel recognized them from security
video of the first two thefts.
Charged with three counts of grand theft was Gregory
Johnson, 42, of West Palm Beach. Lorenzo Stanley, 43, of
Hollywood, was charged with being a principle in the first
degree, grand theft.
Bond for Mr. Johnson was set at $15,000, and for Mr.
Stanely at $5,000.

South Fork High School Student
threatens teacher

According to a Martin County Sheriff's report, after
South Fork High School teacher Jeff Limber told 18-year-
old student Ryan Adams that he was failing his class, the
student reportedly threatened Mr. Limber on April 25 by
saying, "If that happens, I'm going to shoot it's going to
be another Virginia Tech incident."
Mr. Adams was not charged by the Sheriff's Office in the
incident. Florida statute requires that someone making a
threat must have the ability to carry it out.
According to a Martin County Sheriff's Office report,
expulsion of the student is pending a psychological evalu-
ation and a meeting with Martin County School District
officials.

Stuart lawyer suspended

Nathaniel Bundy Burke, 43, a defense attorney in Stuart,
has been suspended by the Florida Bar Association from
practicing law for three years.
Mr. Burke was arrested in May, 2006 at the Wild Coyote
Bar in Stuart, after trying to break up a fight by firing a gun
into the air. He then backed into a parked car.
Two weeks after that incident, he was pulled over for
erratic driving and failed a field sobriety test. While at the
Martin County jail, cocaine residue was found on him.
Martin County Circuit Judge Robert Belanger sentenced
Mr. Burke in February for firearm, DUI and drug charges.
He was sentenced to two years of drug offender probation
and 90 days at a Florida rehabilitation facility. He was also
ordered to take a gun safety course and to 50 hours of
community service.

CONSTANT REMINDER
Vehicle owners will want to
have their vehicles' CV (constant
velocity) joints checked regular-
ly. Attached to the drive shaft,
these important drive-train
components are usually encased
in rubber boots that are filled
with grease. While these protec-
tive boots usually last a long
time, tears or other damage can
expose the CV joint to potential
failure as grease comes out of
the boot and moisture and dirt
get in. Fortunately, in most
cases, catching this potential
problem in its early stages
can be corrected by repacking
the joint and replacing the boot.
Continued driving with a torn
boot, on the other hand, can
lead to the need to replace
the CV joint and, possibly,
the drive shaft.
Failing to have your CV joints
inspected by a professional on a
regular basis can lead to costly
repairs in the long run. At
ADVANTAGE FORD OF STUART,
we promote regular preventative
maintenance because it really
does save you money. Our auto-
motive experts, located at 4000
S.E. Federal Highway, are trained
to spot potential problems before
they pccur. Call 772.781.6540 to
schedule a consultation today.
We're a "Blue Oval Certified" Ford
dealership. Genuine Motorcraft
parts mean that high quality is
guaranteed.
HINT: One of the first indications
that drivers may have of a defec-
tive CV joint is hearing a click-
ing/popping noise while turning.

Platinum
The platinum group met-
als comprise six closely
related metals: Platinum,
Palladium, Rhodium,
Ruthenium, Iridium and
Osmium.
Platinum (symbol PI) was
accepted as a precious
metal only after the sec-
ond half of 19th century
and has a deep luster and
a rich, white color. It is rarer
and heavier than all pre-
cious metals and consid-
ered to be more valuable
than gold.
Platinum is often used to
set the most valuable
gems to produce the
finest jewelry.
Platinum holds gem-
stones most securely,
because its strength and
neutral color enhances
the brilliance and depth
of diamonds and precious
stones. Because of its den-
sity and weight, you can
feel the difference
between platinum and
other precious metals.
There are no karat marks
to identify platinum.
In the United States plat-
inum Is usually marked: PT
or PLAT. In Europe, plat-
inum Is Identified by the
following marks: 950 or
PT950. Since platinum Is
the purest metal It rarely
causes an allergic reac-
tion. There is an increased
Interest In platinum jewelry
both in the US and
abroad.

STUART The Ameri-
can Red Cross Martin

be a very active hurricane
season, so it is critical that
our residents plan now for
their safety before, during
and after a hurricane,"
said Mary Sawyer, execu-
tive director, American
Red Cross, Martin County
chapter. "The lessons
learned during the devas-
tating hurricane seasons
of 2004 and 2005 make it
important for each and
every resident to plan
ahead fQr hurricane sea-
son. Preparation and
advance planning are the
key to survival should we
have a major hurricane or
multiple hurricanes this
year. Residents should
plan now on whether to
ride out a storm in their
home or, as a last resort,
seek shelter in one of the
nine shelters to be operat-
ed by the Red Cross. Now
is also the time to prepare
a hurricane survival kit."
This year's hurricane

hurricane," said Sawyer.
"We want to stress that
hurricane shelters are a
last resort. With advance
planning, residents
should consider staying at
home if the home is in a
safe area; staying with
local friends or relatives;
or relocating outside the

If you plan to go to a Red
Cross shelter, please
remember to bring the fol-
lowing supplies:
*Medicine/prescrip-
tions
*Flashlight/batteries,
battery powered radio
*Drinking water/snacks
*Cot and blanket or
sleeping bag and pillow
*Special diet food
*Toiletries/baby items, if
needed
*Remember pets are
not allowed in shelters

VIEWPO INT


FRIDAY, MAY 11, 2007 HOMETOWN NEWS WWW.HOMETOWNNEWSOL.COM


Got something to say?

Call the Hometown Rants & Raves line at

(772) 465-5504
or e-mail Rants-N-Raves@hometownnewsoLcom.
Callers are asked to refrain from making slanderous
statements. Statements of fact will be checked for
accuracy.

Please tell me why

I would like two questions answered.
First, why aren't the carved sculptures put back on Jensen
Beach Causeway?
And, second, why is there an additional 9/10 of a cent
added to the price of a gallon of gas in the U.S., Canada,
and even in Europe?
If anyone knows the answers to these questions, please
respond.

Do something about illegal aliens

I'm a resident of Stuart, and I have a question for Sheriff
Robert L. Crowder.
How can we stand illegal aliens all over AlA, and not have
them be arrested for loitering?
If people who were citizens of the United States did that,
and hung out all day at a convenience store, or somewhere,
they would be asked to leave.
There are signs posted that say one cannot do this.
Why are these people not being arrested, and being
charged with trespassing or loitering?
I'm sick and tired of all of the illegal alien stuff going on in
this city, and nothing being done about it.
Get on the phone, sir, and start calling in Immigration
and Naturalization, and Immigration and Customs
Enforcement, and get this matter taken care of. It's ridicu-
lous.

Make room for change

I can't understand why everyone keeps knocking the new
Renar buildings in Jensen Beach. They're beautiful.
Has everyone forgotten the dumpy trailer park that used
to be there? Or the grassy swale that sat there growing
weeds for years?
That new building is the Florida of the future. Just like
City Place in West Palm Beach, or the new "City Center"
planned for Port St. Lucie.
Besides that, Renar went through all the preliminary
requirements with the powers that be in Jensen Beach
before construction ever began.
If someone was against those buildings, they should have
done something before permits were given out. Not now,
when the first phase of the project is 99.9 percent com-
plete.
For all of you who are worried about the "old" Florida
being misplaced by the "new" Florida, we still have miles of
the Savannah Preserve for you, and a short drive south on
River Drive from Renar will take you past one of the shod-
diest trailer parks in the county.
There's room for all types in this state, people who want
to live in a complex like Renar, people who want to live in a
dilapidated 30-year-old trailer, and people who want to
live in the most expensive homes in the USA.

Money vs. compassion

What happened to compassion, and people wanting to
help other living beings? They don't live in Port St Lucie!
My son has a dog, Raven, that has a condition that the vet
does not seem to be able to figure out, and she is frequent-
ly sick.
When this happens to her, she goes into respiratory dis-
tress. She had another one of her "asthmatic attacks" today.
Of course, this usually happens on weekends or in the mid-
dle of the night when there aren't any vets open.
For all the animal lovers out there, here's the run down.
My son is low on cash, and needed a vet who would
understand this and make arrangements with him.
1. Emergency clinic? Forget it. It's all about money. Your
animal will only get the treatment that it needs until your
wallet is empty. They will watch an animal die if they can't
get paid, in full, up front.
2. A Port St. Lucie animal clinic we have been customers
of for years was no better. They have received dozens
of referrals from us, as I am a realtor. They refused to see, or
treat Raven due to a balance being owed from her last
episode.
My son took them the money, and requested that they
look at Raven, and help her. The receptionist's reply was,


LAI(E kLVL


_____________ ~ *1-i~ ~ ~ ~ -


"We have to eat, too," and they still wouldn't look at her.
While my son and two others were trying to get the clinic
to treat her, I was on the phone looking for someone open.
3. An animal hospital in Fort Pierce? Not in, but I was told
the vet would call me to give me advice. The vet called me,
and when I started explaining everything to him, his com-
ment was, "Spare me the editorial, this is my cell phone.
Call my office on Monday and set up an appointment."
Not in this lifetime idiot!
4. A vet from Palm City called me, and when I told him we
needed to make payment arrangements, he said if the dog
was that sickly and financially draining, we should consid-
er euthanasia.
I'm sure you can figure out what I told him!
He then told me that we should take the dog back to
where we got her, and give it back. After all, Florida does
have a "lemon dog" law.
We are talking about a puppy here, a part of our family,
not a car. We want to get her medical attention, not return
her because she is too much trouble!
I ended up hanging up on him, as he really ticked me off
with his non-caring attitude. He called back and suggested
that we "sign" her over to him, and he would treat her and
find a good home.
I told him he should not be a vet!
Well, we do have people that care. Raven was taken to a
fire station, where the paramedics gave her oxygen.
Those guys are the only ones that cared enough to help
her. Kudos to those guys, they were wonderful!
I'm not mentioning what fire station, or any names, so as
not to get anyone in trouble.
You know who you are, and we thank you for what you
did. You did not have to, but you had more compassion
than those who were trained, and supposedly took an oath,
to help sick animals.
The following is the Veterinarian Oath, adopted by the
House of Delegates in 1969, amended by the executive
board in 1999, and added to by my family in 2007:
Being admitted to the profession of veterinary medicine,
I solemnly swear to use my scientific knowledge and skills
for the benefit of society through the protection of animal
health, the relief of animal suffering, as long as we get paid
in full before looking at that animal. If owner of said suffer-
ing animal does not have the financial ability to pay us in
full, up front, the above oath is null and void.

I want out

After reading the newspaper today, I would like to make a
few comments about the Treasure Coast.
As I have said before in a rant, this place has become a
real garbage pit.
There are four pigs, actually one is dead, so make it three,
who are still in jail that should have been put to death. After
murdering a little girl who was working in a convenience
store 25 years ago, they are still living, and we are still taking
care of them in jail.
There are two pigs, not even from this country, who
robbed a fast food restaurant in Port St. Lucie.
They are not citizens, they are illegals. What are they? Citi-
zens of Jamaica.
Not even legal here.


Illegal aliens. That's half of what Port St Lucie is anymore.
That's all you have here in the Treasure Coast. Just look
around and you'll see the scum that is moving here.
After 25 years of being here, I'm looking for an island to get
the heck out.
Unbelievable! This place is a trash pit.

Why build more houses

With all of the Treasure Coast being so dry and disastrous
because of the drought, why do they keep letting the big
contractors and developers build more houses?
It seems to me that the people in power are more interest-
ed in the rich developers than they are in the people who
live here now.

Lesson needed

Do society a favor.
Teach your kids how to pull up their pants.
Recyde your goods

I do not see why people do not recycle. It keeps our land
nice and clean, and the water, too.
It keeps our food safe, also.
Please recycle.

When will they be protected?

My neighbor has a new puppy. He ties it to a tree with a
short choke chain, and the puppy cries all day long until
the owner comes home at night.
There is no regulation concerning this type of abuse.
The puppy has had shots, has cover, water and food, so
according to local law, it is being well cared for.
Yet, the puppy is tied up all day, and cries all day.
When will there be a qualified director of animal control,
preferably a veterinarian?
When will the regulation regarding tied up dogs include a
release schedule?
What's wrong with this county?

Would it be so bad?

This is a message to the snowbirds.
I, as well as the rest of the local full time residents, am get-
ting tired of hearing the poor snowbirds whine about how
unfairly they are being treated.
They complain about how much they pay to support the
local government, schools, businesses, and restaurants,
etc., and how little they get in return for all of the money
they spend in the short time they vacation here.
Time for a reality check. You have two residences. The
second one is here, and in most cases is nicer than most
residences only home or apartment.
Not everyone here can afford one home, much less a sec-
ond vacation residence.
We are supposed to be grateful for the money they spend

From page A6
because, without them, we would not have all the fine
restaurants, boutiques, and prestigious clubs that we
have now.
The snowbirds are always threatening to leave, and take
their money back up North.
Let's see exactly what would happen.
First, the infrastructure would not be as crowded, espe-
cially the roadways. The restaurants would be less
crowded. Some gourmet restaurants might close.
We wouldn't' need to build more condos or country
cubs.
One could go to a local, family-run restaurant, not a
chain, and actually eat without a three-week reservation.
Life would be lived at a slower pace, like it used to be.
There would be less road rage, and less rude, pushy peo-
ple in the stores.
In short, life would be less stressful, less crowded, and
slower paced, like it used to be. It would be more small
town, and down to earth, as it was meant to be.
What would be bad about this?

Must one be obese?

Is it a requirement to work in the medical field to be obese?
Every facility that you go to has unappealing looking fat
people.
What great health advertising!

Round up time

Today is May 1, May Day. There are all these illegal rallies
going on today.
I wonder where
the Immigration and Naturalization Service, or Immigra-
tion and Customs Enforcement is? How come none of
their enforcers are out checking green cards?
It's time to round up the illegals, and get them out of this
country.
They are taxing our hospital systems, our health systems,
and the school system.
It's time to round them up.
It's so bad that a white guy can't make a living in this
country any more.
And for the President, there are people who will do those
jobs. They did them before, and they'll do them again.

Vandalism solves nothing
I do not understand.
Private property is private property.
For 12th graders to come and vandalize people's property
is sad. Worst of all they used paint. That was paint put on
cars and driveways.
Police were notified. The people who did the deed are
known.
People, there is a better way to get your meaning across.


It's time to stop the time games

We have all gone through that pesky little annoyance of
moving our clocks forward an hour. And now it stays light
later in the evening, and that is all to the good.
We can enjoy evening outdoor activities longer. So much
energy will be saved by not turning lights on so early, there
will be fewer traffic accidents, and retail stores will likely get
many, many more customers.
So, why not keep it this way? When the fall comes, let's
not turn those clocks back anymore.
I think that the U.S.A. is the only major nation that puts
itself through this ridiculous ritual.
It wreaks major, and expensive, havoc on airline sched-
ules, railroads, computers, and so much more, including
farmers' chickens and cows, whose schedules know of no
clocks.
A primary reason to set clocks back in the fall, with some
logic, is so that the winter mornings are not dark.
Can't that be handled, not by changing the clocks, but by
changing the work and school hours?
That would be so much more economical, sensible, and
easily facilitated than continuing this spring forward-fall
backward lunacy we have now.

Thou shalt not steal

This letter is in response to the recent news story about a
"botched robbery," and it might prompt further reflection
when thinking about taking something that doesn't belong
to you.
As reported, one of the guys could not get away after
stealing because his prosthesis fell off his leg, whereupon
he was found lying next to his vehicle.
The man went "out on a limb," and thought God wasn't
watching, but it was meant to fail from the beginning.
Because when you don't follow God's word, you "don't have
a leg to stand on."

Check it out first

On Saturday, April 14 2007, my daughter had driven me to
the Wal-Mart for my weekly shopping.
I do not get out much unless she takes me. I suffer from
rheumatoid arthritis and it is difficult for me to get around
without the aid of a cane, walker or electric cart.
I have a handicap mirror tag, and park in the handicap
spaces.
After shopping, my daughter had gotten me situated in
the car, and was loading the groceries in the back.
A woman approached her and began to verbally assault
her for being able- bodied, and using the handicap park-
ing.
My daughter was mortified. She gestured to the front
seat, and told the woman she was parked here because of
me, and I was in the front seat.
When the woman saw me, I leaned out the window and
called after her to tell her I hoped she never had to be hand-
icapped, and she should look more closely at a situation
before rushing to judgment.
She hurried off.
I realize people abuse the handicap parking.


I also know that I have raised my children to respect all
people, and to not judge them unfairly.
My daughter did not deserve to be humiliated. She was
helping me.
Just as the saying goes, "Look before you leap," and "think
before you speak".
I hope that woman learned a lesson, but I doubt it.

Make sense of this

Add this to your list of things that make you say why.
We are mandated to water our lawns no more than two
,days a week to conserve water.
However, week after week, developers are given approval
to build more condos and houses.
It might make sense if we didn't have an abundance of
both.

Don't just pick on Spanish channels

' This is to the person who says (he) doesn't want to pay for
Spanish channels.
Well I am sure there are lots of channels on cable and on
satellite that people do not watch.
There are so many channels on television that it is hard to
watch every channel.
Now, why (does he) have to pick out and talk about the
Spanish channels.
I'm sure there are the other channels that (aren't)
watched. I'll bet they just skip the channel and don't watch
it, and don't say anything about it.
Now, why don't they just do the same thing with the Span-
ish channels?

Say no to Spanish channels, nosy neighbors

Congratulations Rants & Raves and Hometown News. Glad
to see you won another award.
To the gentleman who is complaining about the Spanish
speaking channels, I agree.
You're in America. Let's all speak English.
You can complain to your channel provider. The more
complaints they get, the more they may do something
about it.
To the lady with the nosy little neighbor ("Knock, knock"),
directness will probably be the best bet for you.
She comes over to borrow something, tell her no, you do
not have it. You are not her pantry or the neighborhood gro-
cery store.
If she needs for you to do a favor, tell her no. You cannot do
it; you're busy.
If she insists, then you may have to be a little stronger with
your language.
Coming to the door and being nosy with company is
the biggest no-no there ever is.
In my experience, do not answer the door after you're
your company comes in. Lock the door behind you.
If she persists, you may have to tell her directly to get
(leave you alone) and leave her standing there.
Directness always works.

feet, 9 inches tall, while most
Spanish men in those days
were 4 feet, 8 inches to 5 feet,
2 inches, and Columbus had
red eyes and red skin from
the elements," said Mr. Cop-
pock.
The school children
seemed to want to linger on
the ship even after the tour
was over.


"I really liked it, especially
the wood floor," said Rachel
Raynor, 8 years-old, who also
said she could not imagine
sailing on a ship like the Nifia
at the age of 12.
Katelyn Torres, 9, agreed. "I
think it would be scary. They
were very brave kids," she
said.
The children said they had


learned about Christopher
Columbus and his travels in
school before touring the
Nifia.
"I think it's awesome,
because we did not live back
then. So this is a great experi-
ence," said Elizabeth
Melachrinoudis, 8.
The Nina's crew was work-
ing hard even as the ship was


docked in Stuart.
' Capt. Kyle Friauf, who calls
St. Petersburg home during
the 10 days each month that
he is off the ship, explained
that he and his crew had just
sailed 1,000 miles across the
Gulf of Mexico before arriv-
ing in Stuart on April 2.
Next stop for the Nifia,
which set sail from Stuart on


May 6, is Brunswick, Ga.
When asked where the ship
will be when hurricane sea-
son begins next month,
Capt. Friauf smiled and said,
"We will be up north, sailing
in the Great Lakes."

Whiskers, the first bearded
seal ever found in Treasure
Coast waters, rests on the
dock at his temporary
home at Loblolly Bay in
Hobe Sound. Experts had
tried to capture Whiskers
and return him to his
native waters in the north,
but he died in captivity.

Arctic seal found in Hobe Sound


waters has scientists baffled


BY MICHELLE GENTILE
Staff writer
(Editor's Note: As the
May 11 edition of Home-
town News was going to
press we recieved word
that the bearded seal dis-
covered at Hobe Sound
had died early Tuesday
morning.
"We were unable to save
the seal he was too far
gone," said Blair Mase,
Mammal Stranding Coor-
dinator for National
Marine Fisheries Services
Southeast Region. "They
are doing a necropsy at
this time to find the cause
of death but most experts
agree it will because of
dehydration and stress.
It's a sad ending to the
story but the community
support was and empathy
was amazing to see.")
HOBE SOUND Scien-
tists were' baffled by the
appearance last week of a
rare seal weighing
between 250 and 300
pounds and 6-feet in
length. The bearded seal,
generally foreign to these
parts and a native to arctic
or sub-arctic waters, was
found frolicking in the
warm waters of Hobe
Sound.
"At this point we are
calling it an anomaly,"
said Blair Mase, Mammal
Stranding Coordinator for
National Marine Fisheries
Services Southeast Region
(NOAA). "This animal is
completely out of its terri-
tory. We've had iced seals
appear as far south as
Florida or the Caribbean,
but this is the first time for
this particular species of
seal."
The bearded seal, one of
the largest of seals in the
Arctic, can weigh up to
750 pounds in winter and
is usually a solitary mam-
mal according to the Alas-
ka Department of Fish
and Game. Its seasonal
movement is almost


always associated with the
movement of ice, which is
what made this discovery
a mystery.
Since 1970 the only
reported case of a bearded
seal was five years ago in
Gloucester, Mass., said
National Oceanic Atmos-
p h e r i c
Administration agency
spokeswomen, Kim
Amendola.
Security officer, Bud
Butshall, of Loblolly Bay
in Hobe Sound, spotted
the seal, dubbed
'Whiskers,' on a floating
dock at the private mari-
na.
"I was doing my patrol
and when I walked up to
the floating dock he was
just sitting there," said Mr.
Butshall. "He stayed on
the dock all night and he
didn't seem afraid of us."
Security officers said the
minor celebrity was very
lively and playful.
"He seemed very
spunky, rolling over, flip-
ping his flippers. He didn't
look hurt and snapped up
the fish we threw out
immediately," said Jay
Cutler, Chief of Security


for Loblolly Bay.
Experts stated the ani-
mal looked dehydrated
and worried he might not
survive in these warm
waters.
According to NOAA, this
particular seal will have a
hard time surviving so far
south and they hope to
relocate the him or her
back to its native habitat.
"We've seen by the looks
of this animal that the
tropical waters have taken
a toll, therefore, a rescue is
needed," said Ms. Mase.
Florida Wildlife Com-
mission, Harbor Branch
Oceanographic Institute,
Sea World biologists and
seal experts were brought
in on May 4 to decide the
best course of action on
catching and caring for
the seal. The scientists
had been tracking the ani-
mal but lost sight of it on
on May 5 only to rediscov-
er what they think was the
same seal in a Broward
County canal last Monday.
"It is probable that the
seal discovered in
Broward is the same seal
seen in Hobe Sound," said
Ms. Amendola. "The team

with Harbor Branch
Oceanographic Institute,
NOAA and other experts
have tried to net the ani-
mal and so far have been
unsuccessful.
Other experts feel it is
highly unlikely that the
seal found in Broward is
the same one found in
Hobe Sound.
While opinions may
vary, the main goal in all
these sightings is to cap-
ture, treat and nourish the
animal for release back to
a natural environment.
Such animals, if captured,
are treated at Sea World in
Orlando.
"We are all working
together. It's still a mys-
tery to us at this point why
a bearded seal or other
seals have shown up," said
Mase. "Whether they are
following prey, getting
caught in currents, or
being affected by climate
changes we are not sure at
this time but studies are
being done now to find
out why this phenomenon
occurred."

Google offers exciting way to


explore Earth from space


W en it comes to
programs that
work with the
Internet, most people think
of their Web browser or
their e-mail application.
Actually, there is a
plethora of programs that
are geared to work with the
Internet, not just your e-
mail client or Web browser.
There are FTP programs,
games, VOIP programs and
more.
This week I thought I
would write about a gem of
a program that has been a
lot of fun to play around
with, and it's educational
too.
Open your Web browser
and enter
http://earth.google. corn.
This will bring you to the
home page of one of the
coolest.Web-based applica-
tions I've seen in a long
time.
When you think of
Google, the first thing that
generally comes to mind is
Web searching. And for the
most part, that's true.
Google is the premier
search engine on the Web
today. But did you know
that there is so much more
to Google than just Web
searching?
Among other things, it
also powers the best free
satellite imagery program
on the Internet.
Google Earth is a pro-
gram that you have to
download and install on
your computer. Once
installed, you become the
proud owner of the neatest
virtual globe in existence.
Did I mention that this
program is really cool?.
When you go to
http://learth.google.com,
click the "download Google
Earth free" button.
On the page that opens,
be sure to read the infor-
mation about what sys-
tems can handle it; it won't
run on older machines, but
for the most part, most
modern machines can.
After you've read the
system requirements and
made sure you aren't trying
to install this on an old
Windows 95 box built in
1997 or something, click on
the "download
GoogleEarth" button.
This will start the down-
load process. Save the file
to a place where you will be
able to find it, such as your
desktop.
Once the download is
complete, close all your
windows and double click
it.
Follow along clicking the
"next" button when
appropriate, and install the
program onto your
machine.
Remember, this is a
pretty intensive program
that may not run on all
systems.
Also, the specifications
call for a broadband
connection, so that means
it probably won't work over


SEAN MCCARTHY
Compute This

dial-up, even if you have a
fast machine.
Once installed you
should have a Google Earth
icon on your desktop.
Click it and this is where
the fun starts.
The program opens with
a virtual globe floating in
space. Use your mouse to
grab and turn the globe up,
down left or right. Try to
position the globe so that
Florida (or any are you are
interested in for that
matter) is in the center of
the screen.
On the screen you will
see some buttons that
control the action. Click
and hold the "zoom"
button.
Like a rock, your view will
drop until you are almost at
ground level (you may
want to zoom out a bit so
you can see where you are
as you move around).
Using the controls, you
can rotate the image left or
right and also "tilt" the view
so you are looking at it
across the ground with a

wi m-,,


view of the horizon.
Geography has never
been more fun.
I have been using Google
Earth to explore my old
"stomping grounds" in
Worcester, Mass., where I
grew up, and I'll tell you,
the sense of nostalgia is
uncanny; it's just like being
there (only higher).
With Google Earth I can
visit anytime.
There is a tool you can
use to mark locations to
bring you back instantly
and there are an insane
amount of "overlays" that
you can enable on the
display.
Google Earth gives you
the opportunity to explore
the world from the comfort
of your desk with spectacu-
lar views and detailed
information about what
you are looking at just a
click away.
One question that seems
to come up with this
program is: how old are
these images?
Well, all I can say is that
they are not "real time."
The satellite images
appear to be about a year
or so old but that doesn't
take away from the fun.
Disney World, for
instance, looks pretty
much the same from space
now as it did whenever
these pictures were taken
and, frankly, it doesn't
really matter. You have the
whole world to explore.
Have fun.
Sean McCarthy has
worked with computers
since 1978.

Ten ways to get ripped off by car dealers


Here are 10 things to
watch out for when
shopping for a new
car

No.1. Believing the
newspaper and TV ads. It
never ceases to amaze me
how outrageous and
unbelievable the car
dealers' claims are.
Just when I think that
they can't get any worse, I
see one that tops them all.
Last month, one dealer
was advertising in the
newspaper and TV that if
you bought one vehicle
from him you got a second
for nothing.
The "facts and fine
print" would reveal that
the first vehicle was a very
expensive one with a huge
markup of more than
$6,000 and the second
vehicle was the "use" of a
vehicle for two years: a
lease.
My father always said,
"If it sounds too good to
be true, it probably isn't."
Astoundingly, the general
manager of this dealership
had the gall to say on TV,
"This is not a gimmick."
No. 2. Buying a car on
impulse on the first day
you start shopping. Can
you believe that this is the
way most people buy cars?
It truly is. There is some-
thing about a new car that
excites people and
appeals to them on an
emotional level. People let
their feelings short circuit
their logical thought
processes.
Overcome that emotion
that tells you to drive that
shiny new car home right
now. Go home and think
about it. Talk it over with


EARL STEWART
On Cars

your spouse and friends.
Research the model of car
you looked at and the
price on the Internet.
Always drive the car you
chose before you sign any
papers. You should take at
least a week or two in the
decision making process
before you buy a car.
No. 3. Trading your old
car into the dealer you buy
from without shopping its
value. Most people have
no idea what their trade-
in is worth when they
come in to buy a new car.
They rely entirely on the
appraisal by the selling
dealer. The dealer can
make it appear that he is
giving you a lot of money
for your trade by taking
some of the high markup
on the new car and
showing it as part of the
appraisal value.
Check Kelly Blue Book
(kbb.com) and
Edumnds.com on the
Internet. Get at least three
bids from other dealers of
. the same make for your
trade. Make the purchase
of the new.car and the sale
of your trade two separate


transactions.
Remember that you do
get a sales tax break by
trading in your car to the
dealer you buy from.
No. 4. Using the dealer's
financing without check-
ing with your bank or
credit union. Shop for the
best price on your financ-
ing just like you shop for
the best price on your
trade-in and new your car.
No. 5. "This low price is
good today only." This is
one of the favorite ruses
used by car salespeople
and dealers. In 99 percent
of the cases, you can buy
that car for the same or an
even lower price later. The
only time that you can't is
when factory incentives
expire on a certain date,
typically at the end of the
month. If that is the claim,
demand to see the written
factory incentive by the
manufacturer.
No. 6. "Make me a
written offer with a
deposit and I will submit it
to my manager." This is
standard operating
procedure at most car
dealerships. This is to get
you psychologically
engaged in the buying
process. Once you have
signed a buyer's order and
written out a check, you
will remain in the dealer-
ship for a while and are
more likely to buy. The
salesman knows that.
Insist on getting their
best price on the car you
have selected. You should
never make the first offer.
Once you have their price,
compare it with at least
three other prices from
other dealers on the same
make and model.

No.7. Taking the new car
home to see how you like
it. This is the famous
"puppy dog" technique, so
named because once you
take a puppy dog home
overnight, who has the
heart to return it the next
day? You, your neighbors,
and friends will see that
shiny new car parked in
* your driveway. It sure
looks good. How can you
explain to anybody that
you didn't buy it?
No. 8. "I'll buy the car if
you can get my monthly
payments below $ X" Most
of us tend to think in
terms of our monthly
budgets. We might feel
that we can afford a new
car as long as it costs us
less than $350 per month,
but there is a big differ-
ence between $350 per
month for 36 months and
$350 per month for 72
months. I recommend
that you finance a car for
no more than 42 months,
preferably 36.
No. 9. "You have my
word on that." Be
absolutely sure that every
promise.or commitment
made to you by your sales
person is in writing and
signed by a manager. That
salesman may not work
there when you have
occasion to ask for that
"free loaner car" that he
promised you anytime
.you bring your car in for
service.
No. 10. "All dealers
charge a dealer fee and we
can't remove it from the
invoice." In fact, all
dealers do not charge a
dealer fee. I don't. But

A s you enjoy the first
buds of spring and

holiday getaway.

A women-only travel
getaway is planned for six
days, starting Dec. 21, to
New York City, the cosmo-
politan capital of the United
States.

experienced traveler when
the city is most alive and
they will tell you it's at
Christmas.
The Big Apple package is
the perfect way to celebrate
the holidays.
You'll tour the city by
coach with a professional
guide, visit the Metropolitan
Museum of Art to view the
annual Neapolitan Tree,
tour the New York Botanical
Gardens and Rockefeller
Square, and enjoy holiday
caroling by the Big Apple
chorus at the lively South

welcome reception at the
hotel, followed by dinner at

The truth about smoking hazards


TELL 'Em THE HometownNews


n a column at the
beginning of the year
about tips to help stop
smoking, I wrote about a
booklet I'd come across
from cigarette manufactur-
er Philip-Morris.
It was, I thought, poetic
justice for Phillip Morris to
help people to stop smok-
ing when they'd done so
much to get them to start.
I heard from Marcella
Capar, tobacco prevention
coordinator for the St. Lucie
County Health Department,
who wanted me to know
that there are resources
unconnected to the tobacco
industry to educate adults
and kids about the hazards
of smoking and second-
hand smoke, and to help
them quit.
Ms. Capar, who began her
position in December, has a
long history of fighting
tobacco, first as a volunteer
with the American Cancer
Society after her mother
battled breast cancer.
She has worked to pass
legislation mandating
smoke-free restaurants and
funds for youth education
about tobacco. She is
passionate about the cause,
and in particular, about
working with young people
"Kids are not interested in
the health consequence,"
she said. "High school kids

know the health conse-
quences. They think they're
invincible. I tell them how
the industry is marketing to
youth through candy-
flavored cigarettes and
marketing techniques.
Everyone in television
commercials is thin, healthy
and beautiful."
She is concerned that a
lot of the tobacco-money
settlement negotiated in
1997 has gone to treat
tobacco-related illnesses
and not to prevent smoking
in the first place.
"There's a great peer
program, Students Working
against Tobacco. It's a truth
campaign, Florida kids
against the tobacco indus-
try, telling kids about the
marketing techniques,
about the ingredients, like
rat poison and arsenic, that
are in cigarettes, and about
how the tobacco industry
has raised nicotine levels
10-20 percent in the past six
years.
"The program worked,
but funding was cut and
while youth smoking rates
had leveled out, we stopped
seeing a decline and worry
that the rate of tobacco use
among the young may rise."
Ms. Capar's optimistic
that the passage of the
Comprehensive Statewide
Tobacco Education and
Prevention program in 2006


SHELLEY KOPPEL
Alive and Well
will allow full funding for
SWAT and other programs,
such as 88 Shoes.
In this program, children
lay out 88 pairs of shoes,
each pair holding a fact
about the hazards of
smoking. The shoes repre-
sent the 88 Floridians who
die each day from smoking-
related illnesses.
Kids reaching kids is a
great idea, because peer
pressure is often what gets
kids to smoke in the first
place, but the best way to
raise smoke-free kids is not
to smoke yourself.
"A lot of kids say their
parents smoke in the car
and they don't like it," Ms.
Capar said. "You should
lead by example. There's a
lot of evidence that second-
hand smoke harms chil-
dren. Talk to your kids, the
earlier the better. It's in the

middle schools that kids
decide, so they need
information in the elemen-
tary schools.
"Kids also tell us adults
often buy cigarettes for
them. The community has
to work together and take
responsibility for keeping
kids away from tobacco."
If you are interested in

Florida Department of
Health and the American
Cancer Society, can be
reached at (877) 822-6669.
Information is available in

sessions, self-help material,
coupons for medications
and other services are
available.
' You can also find infor-
mation from the American
Cancer Society and the
American Lung Association.
Ms. Capar urges you to do
it now.
"Freedom is within reach
is our motto," she said.
Do it for yourself and for
the people you love.

Work on your indoor and outdoor plants


he spring planting
season is in full
swing and every-
where you look you see
color and more color.
Now is the time when
people flock to the
outdoors to dress up
their yards and gardens
to get ready for the
season.
Not only does sprucing
up your yard create eye
candy for the beholder,
but also, the outdoor
activity that we do is
actually beneficial to our
health.
The positive feelings
we get while we are
tilling in the garden and
working with plants can
effectively help reduce
fatigue and stress.
If you have a high-
pressure job, the benefits
of gardening can be
significant.
If you have plants in
your home, you have the
added benefit of the
leaves actually helping to
clear the air. Plants in the
home can also help raise
humidity levels. This can
be most important
during the dry winter
months. '
Plants can also help
absorb noise and actually
lessen dust in the home.
Many tests have been
done on the relationship
between blood pressure
and gardening.
They have shown that
people who frequently
tend to their gardens


have lower blood pres-
sure.
Gardening should
never be a substitute for
your regular medication
or healthcare, however.
With the arrival of
spring comes the job of
pruning all your favorite
plants.
Not only do you need
to decide on which
plants to prune, but you
also must choose which
tool will suit your needs
the best.
There are basically two
types of pruners: anvil
and bypass.
Anvil pruners work by
pushing a sharp blade
'against a flat piece of
metal called an "anvil."
The bypass pruner
works more like a pair of
scissors. The tool has two
sharp blades that work
together to cut the plant
material.
In general, the bypass
type is the preferred
choice, as it will make a
cleaner cut that will
ultimately heal faster
Spring is also a time
when people replant
their houseplants.
Maybe you need to put
them in a larger pot or
maybe you just want to
create a new look with a
decorative planter.
To ensure you don't
transmit any diseases
from plant to plant, clean
the old pot with a 1
percent solution of
bleach before reusing the

with Joe Zelenak


pot for another plant.
For added safety, you
can also use this method
before placing your
plants in a newly pur-
chased pot.
Many people may
decide to move a favorite
plant that you had
indoors all winter to an
outdoor environment.
In order to make this
process work, place the
plant in its new location
for short intervals at first,
and then gradually
increase the plants'
exposure to its new
location over the course
of a couple of weeks.
Even with all the
precautions, the plant
may still drop some
leaves or buds. This is


normal and the plant
should make a full
recovery.
That's all for this week's
column and I hope you
enjoyed it.
Just a reminder that
you can contact me with
your plant questions by
e-mail or by using my
new garden forum at
www. hometowngarden.c
om.

experience in gardening

charge 's programmed into

many states including California, but is still

fie is simply to increase the price of the car

noticed by your customers. This is just plain

Now, here Is the goad news. After eliminat-

by about the amount of the dealer fee, but
my customers realized I was now giving them
a fair shake and quoting a complete out-the-

spread. My volume of car sales began to rise
rapidly. Sure, I was making a few hundred
dollars less per car, but I was selling a lot

H ello, smart shoppers.
Hope you had a
good week.
There seems to be some
confusion about subscrib-
ing to Hometown News,
but not after this column.
You can get it delivered
weekly and it's free. Call toll

Any questions? I sure
hope not!!
When my friend Nicki
Valentine had us over for
dinner she made, at my
request, her shepherd's pie.
It was great although it
was high in fat, cholesterol
and calories.
She said, "I'll give you the
recipe. You make it healthy."
There are no two people
who make it the same way.
Leftover roast and gravy
can be used, ground beef,
ground lamb, mixed
vegetables or only one
vegetable such as corn,
peas, lima beans, etc. -
Unless you can find
ground beef that contains
no more than 6 grams of fat


per serving, have yours,
ground fresh from an (on
sale) low-fat cut of beef,
such as flank steak, eye
round, top round, bottom
round, round steak, sirloin
and chuck, as per instruc-
tions in previous columns.
Enjoy. See you next week.
SHEPHERD'S PIE
(NIB)
Serves 6
Regular and
low-fat
1 pound ground beef or
fresh ground "fat-free"
ground beef
1 medium onion,
chopped
1 teaspoon garlic/pep-
per seasoning or 1/2 tea-
spoon garlic powder,
1/2 teaspoon black pep-
per
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups frozen mixed veg-
etables, cooked and
drained
1/2 cup flour
1/2 to 1 cup milk, regular
or skim (Try evaporated
skim milk, diluted.)
2 cups grated cheddar


cheese or Kraft fat-free
grated cheddar cheese
3 to 4 cups prepared
mashed potatoes
(Recipe follows.)
In a large skillet, brown
beef, pour out fat. If you're
using "fat-free" ground
beef, add 1-tablespoon
extra virgin olive oil to the
pan. Add onion and
seasonings and cook until
onion is golden.
Mix in vegetables, then
flour, stirring constantly to
blend.
Stir in enough milk to
make a medium to heavy
gravy. Pour into a 3-quart
baking dish or a 9-by 13-
inch pan.
Sprinkle cheese over top,
then carefully spread
mashed potatoes sealing to
the edges.
Bake at 350 degrees E for
20 to 30 minutes until top is
golden brown. Let sit 5
minutes before serving.
MASHED POTATOES
Serves 5 to 6
Regular and low-fat
Mashed potatoes have
always been considered a
high-fat food, but with a
couple of subtle changes,
they become a delicious
low-fat food. By using a
butter substitute, such as
Smart Balance, instead of
regular butter, and by using
evaporated skim milk or
fat-free half and half in


place of whole milk you cut
the fat and cholesterol
considerably.
5 medium-size potatoes
4 tablespoons butter
Milk
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup ice water
Peel potatoes*, cut in
large chunks and cook in
water until tender, drain.
Whip with an electric
mixer, adding butter. Add
milk until desired consis-
tency is attained. Season

From page A14
unfortunately, most do
charge this "gotcha" fee
ranging from $495 to
$1,000. It is true that
Florida law (which should
prohibit dealer fees
entirely) requires that the
dealer fee appear ori all
invoices. If you charge just
one customer a dealer fee,
you must charge every-
body. The state legislators,
in their infinite wisdom,
decided if a car dealer is
going to take advantage of
even one buyer, he must
take advantage of all of the
buyers. Never discrimi-
nate. But the loophole in
this stupid law is for you
to demand that the dealer
reduce the price of the car
by the amount of the
dealer fee, making it a
wash.

Broadway showstoppers round out Shiloh season

For Shiloh Theatrical .

Jim Docter, who is
directing the show, says
they went for contempo-

as "Phantom of the

"Jesus Christ Superstar,"

Mr. Docter says that the

These, he says, are the
showstopperss."
The cast of 24 comes
from Vero to Palm Beach
Gardens and ranges in age
from 6 to the late 70s. In


addition to a great cast,
Mr. Docter is working
with choreographer Mark

STAR SCOPES
James Tucker


Week of 05-11-07
Aries-March 21-April 19
You deserve a medal of valor. You are loyal
to family, work and friends. You were born
with a blessing from the great spirit. You
never ask for much for yourself. It's like your
richest blessings are more on the spiritual
than the earthly side of life. We all need to
learn from you.

Taurus-April 20-May 20
Get your priorities in line and see that nur-


during your spirit should come first. Then
the passion for family and taking care of
business will be fully understood and ful-
filled. The order is, spirit, family and then
work. True motivation and success comes
from the inside out.

Gemini-May 21-June 21
There is a silver lining behind every cloud.
When one plan doesn't work out, it means
that a better one needs to be put into
motion. Just know that when you keep try-
ing that you are getting closer to success.
The point is to never give up until you reach
the' finish line. Now your share of the
rewards are assured.

Cancer-June 22-July 22
Remove any limitations or judgments you
have placed on yourself and move onto
new heights of awakening and creativity.
Honor yourself. If you don't, you won't
allow others to honor you. You are the epit-


ome of family values and earthly worth. No
one does it better. Send it out there and
watch it come back.
Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
Passion is your greatest gift. It comes from
being born in the middle of the fire signs.
When you are focused, centered and bal-
anced, your powers of creation are awe-
some. You have the ability to bring any wor-
thy idea into physical reality. This talent is
the greatest in the zodiac. But you must be
focused first.

Virgo-Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Your inner strength, good nature and strong
vision continue to bring hope, joy and heal-
ing to life. Your happiness is measured by
the joy in your heart. If it is low, go out and
do something for someone with a greater
need than your own. In the giving you
receive back 10-fold. This is the supreme
law. Surrender to it.


Libra-Sept. 23-Oct.22'
Libra, you continue to amaze your zodiac
family with the depth of your inner strength,
insight and vision. You always have a kind,
helpful word for family, friends and associ-
ates when they need it the most. How do
you do this? You were born with it and yod
pour it out at the right times.

Scorpio-Oct. 23-Nov. 21
It's time to move forward. When you master
present challenges and feel close to the har-
vest of present time and efforts, create new
causes, sow new seeds and grow a new and
better life. The large heart that lives in Scor-
pio requires this seasonal adjustment. It's
your greatest reward. Create new causes.

Sagittarius-Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Keep learning from your experiences and
challenges. Life is the greatest teacher. You

Pineapple Playhouse

aims for p ure melodrama


BY SHELLEY KOPPEL :
Entertainment writer
In the 1920s, a favorite
type of entertainment was
the melodrama, where the
villain sneered and twirled
his mustache, the heroine
simpered, the hero was
handsome, and dark events
were heralded by dramatic
organ music. The Pineap-
ple Playhouse will re-create
that era from May 17-June 3
as they present Paul
Loomis' parody of early
melodramas, "Pure as the
Driven Snow."
Mercedes Richmond, who
is directing the comedy-
melodrama, says that it is
played for laughs.
"It's very tongue-in
cheek," she says. "We will be
using music, sign cards
saying 'Boo' and 'Hiss' and a
lot of audience participa-
tion There are a lot of asides
to the audience, too. A few
times the actors have had to
repeat their lines to get
through them because
they're so silly. We think it's


fun and hope the audience,
will, too."
Mrs. Richmond is quite
pleased with the cast she's
assembled.
"Our Mortimer, the villain,
played by Tony Ferrino Jr., is
a little bit older but he is
dark and sinister and das-
tardly," she says. "The hero,
Leander Longfellow, is
played by Steve Carden. It's
his first time on the stage;
he came in and blew us all
away. He's handsome and
adorable and everybody's
half in love with him
already. Carey-Anne
Elmquist, who plays the
heroine, Purity Dean, was
in 'Sugar.' This is her first
straight play. She has done
musical theater her whole
life and is a dream to direct.
She's sweet and innocent-
looking and demure."
Others in the cast include
Gayle Searles, Jerry
Badinger, Elisa Groendyke,
Katie Horn, Grant
Groendyke, Chad Granese,
Jill Rich, Megan Rich, Frank
Cardillo, Noah Richmond,


Elizabeth Smith, Dottie
Cardillo, Melissa Raulston
and Shannon Ferguson.
Colby Dempsey will pro-
vide the melodramatic
music and Jan Buzzeo is the
assistant director.
Mrs. Richmond's family is
also a part of the produc-
tion. Her daughter, Savan-
nah, plays a card girl and
her husband, Wayne, will
describe the action and
encourage the audience to
get involved. For this pro-
duction, boos and hisses
are signs of a hit, and Mrs.
Richmond hopes that the
audience will really get into
the spirit of the "pure" fun
of it all.
"Pure as the Driven Snow"
will be performed at the
Pineapple Playhouse, 609
Weatherbee Road, Fort
Pierce, from May 17-June 3.
Performances are at 8 p.m.
on Thursday-Saturday and
2 p.m. on Sunday. Tckets
are $15; call the box office at
(772) 465-0366 or visit the
Web site at www.pineapple-

DIRECTOR: DEE HAYWARD-RIDENOUR
In the mid-1970's, John, a playwright, visits his family in upstate new
York. With him he brings a play he has written about them and seeks
their permission to produce it. Disagreements begin to take place dur-
ing the ritual of the cocktail hour and, as the martinis flow, so does the
recriminations and revelations. Will the ties that bind them prevail? Will
surmounting disputes and disappointments convert pained resignation
to hopeful anticipation?
"When I watch Gurney at his best, as he is here, I laugh through
tears." The New York Times

344 Alice Street Stuart


BY MATT DEWHURST
Sports writer
During the bottom of the
third timing in a home game
against Fort Lauderdale this
season, Jensen Beach pitch-
er Lou Viamontes was
preparing to head back to
the mound to finish what.he
had started. But before he
could, freshman Brett
Thiesen made freshman
mistake.
"He asked me if I knew I
was throwing a no-hitter,"
the senior said. "The coach-
es just gave him the worst
look."
Did it rattle Viamontes?
Nope. He just laughed it off.
It's not like it was his first
time down the no-hit road.
Earlier in the season he
threw a perfect game
against Fort Pierce West-
wood.
Like most little leaguers,
Viamontes grew up playing
a variety of positions like
outfield and second base.
He even was a catcher.
In fact, when he began his
high school career four
years ago on the Martin
County freshman team, he
was a catcher.
But after transferring to
Jensen Beach the following
year, Viamontes decided
that he would get more


playing time if he showed
the coaching staff he could
, also pitch a little bit.
They're lucky he did.
By the middle of his soph-
omore season, Viamontes
had shot up the rotation
from the No. 3 starter, to
being the staff's ace. Via-
montes, who will graduate
later this month, never
relinquished the role.
'"At the beginning of the
year it was a little disap-
pointing that I was No. 3.
But 1 (thought), I'll do what I
can and they'll move me up
when they can," said Via-
montes.
With three career no-hit-
ters under his belt (he had
one last year against a team
from Massachusetts), show-
ing his coaches he was the
more than an ex-catcher
with an arm remains his
biggest personal accom-
plishment.
So it's no surprise now,
that. he is ready to do it
again. With his high school
days over, Viamontes will
have to prove himself to a
new set of critics college
coaches.
Despite going 6-2 in his
senior season and being
one of the best pitchers in
an area known for its base-
ball prospects and leading
the Falcons to their first

appearance in school histo-
ry, Viamontes has yet to
receive any formal offers to
play in college next spring.
Standing in at 5-foot-11
inches (6-feet on a good day
he says), and weighing 190
pounds, Viamontes believes
that his size is a big part of
the reason that he hasn't
gotten much attention from
college scouts.
"I'm not your prototypical
pitcher," he said. "I'm not
6'3"."
But that hasn't stopped
him from talking to coaches
and keeping in shape with
next year in mind.
Viamontes has already
been accepted to five col-
leges, but hasn't chosen
where he will attend yet.

Do I have a deal for
you! By now, most
of you have realized
that the time for inexpen-
sive golf is upon us.
What makes this year
different than many in the
past is that for 2007,
private clubs are offering
memberships to golfers
who reside outside the
gates and walls of the
development.
Panther Woods in Fort
Pierce is one such club.
This private, member-
owned jewel is encourag-
ing new memberships and
has a fantastic summer
plan available.
For $500 you and your
family can become sum-
mer members, enjoying all
the golf benefits that a
private club has to offer.
For another $100 you can


enjoy dining and social
activities as well.
The club is even offering
a "test drive" of the course
to see if you like it enough
to join.
Panther Woods was
originally the idea of
developer St. Lucie Pines
in the mid 1970s.
Featuring only 5-acre
home sites and no ameni-
ties, the place was a bust.
Not a single lot was sold
and a French company,
Nice Investment, pur-
chased the vacant land.
The French had big
plans and platted the land
for streets, home sites and
a golf course.
The original name was
Monte Carlo Country Club
and the company's site
plan survived, even as a
lack of funds prevented

A German group pur-
chased the property in
early 1980 and soon work
started on the course and
other amenities.
The clubhouse opened
in December 1983, and


later that month, the club
hosted the World Mixed
Championship with Patty
Rizzo and Raymond Floyd
representing the club.
The community's most
famous resident was the
late Sam Snead.
Slammin' Sammy spent
14 winters here and in
1988 became the resident
club pro emeritus. He
celebrated his 90th birth-
day at the club, just a short
time before he died in
2002.
Bernard Langer and
tennis great Bjorn Borg
were one-time residents,
and represented the club
in events around the
world.
Even the PGA of America
looked at the property as a
place for its winter head-

quarters before deciding
on Palm Beach Gardens.
While the recent hurri-
canes wreaked havoc on
Panther Woods, tearing
down many trees and
closing the clubhouse for
six month, the clouds did
have a silver lining.
The clubhouse has been
completely refurbished.
The golf course has had
every green resurfaced
with champion ultra-
dwarf Bermuda.
The Tennis Center had
its Har-Tru courts resur-
faced in 2005.
Even the large, heated
pool, locker rooms and
activity center have been
addressed.
The jewel of Panther
Woods is its fantastic golf
course.
Designed by award-
winning architect Charles
Ankrom, the course
spreads across 195 acres of
gently rolling terrain
giving the place a rare
spaciousness.
The course features five
sets of tees with the
championship tees
measuring in at 6,875
yards and the shortest set
coming in at 5,115 yards.
One of the first things
that you will notice about
the course is the spacious-
ness.
You see the homes on
the course, but they are
never in danger, even from
the worst shot. Older trees
fill the course, and imagin-
ing how the place looked
before the recent hurri-
canes gives you an idea of
just how beautiful the
place truly is.
A par-5 starts your round
and gives your mental
game a test right off the
bat. With a good drive, it's
tempting to go for the

(Syndicated News) Over the years, the real
estate industry has seen many ups and
downs. But one thing that remains a
constant in this area are the unfavorable
opinions many people hold toward those in
real estate, whether it be realtors, brokers or
investors. It's no secret that those people are
often subjected to unnecessary criticism and
suspicion. Now some of them are taking
matters into their own hands and going
online in an effort to change public opinion.
"A big misconception about those
working in real estate is that they aren't
reliable or trustworthy," explains Ryan Inlow,
president of Property Doctors
(http://propertydoctors.com), a California-
based company that seeks to change the way
people perceive those in the real estate
community. "Until now, it's been very
difficult for them to show others what they
have accomplished, and to build a name for


K:Lc&en_ stramb

themselves. We're showing people a whole
new side of these professionals."
. Already, nearly 4,000 real estate related
experts have joined the online Property
Doctors community, including those in
contracting, mortgages and inspecting.
Joining the community allows anyone in real
estate to create a referral network, showcase
their accomplishments and even create a
blog where they can earn a favorable
reputation for good real estate posts.
"We give these professionals the chance
to proclaim their reputation," adds Inlow. "In
addition to it being a great way to get their
name out there in a positive way, people are
enjoying the whole social networking aspect
of it, as well. It's a great opportunity to get in
contact with other professionals and
investors. Our mission is to reshape the
reputation of the real estate industry
professional, one person at a time."

"I want to play baseball,"
said Viamontes. "I think I
could (play at the Division I
level). Mentally, I could. And
physically, I think I could do
pretty well."
This summer Viamontes
will play with the Port St.
Lucie Phantoms travel
team, and plans on adding
another 15 pounds of mus-
cle to his frame before next
season.
There have been some
schools to show some inter-
est in the pitcher. He did
well in a tryout with Brevard
Community College, and
has had some good conver-
sations with the coaching
staff at Division II Barry
University, a school to
which he has already been
accepted.
While it is uncertain
where he will end up next
year, it will be his experi-
ences pitching for the Fal-
cons that will help him suc-


ceed.
And with his high school
career complete, and name
secure in the Jensen Beach
record books, it isn't any one
game that he will take with
him next year, but a
moment.
The final out of the first
regional playoff win in
Jensen Beach baseball his-
tory.
"It is a cool thing to say
that you're the first one to
make it to regionals," said
Viamontes. "But being the
guy on the mound, having
everybody come running
out, jumping up and down.
It was a good feeling."
But that was 2007. As for
2008, no matter where he
ends up playing baseball, he
already knows how he will
deal with people who might
second-guess him.
"If they underestimate
me, I'll just throw my four-
seam past them."

water and trees guarding
it.
One of the nicest spots
on the course is at the
second green and third
tee. Here beautiful oaks
shade you while waiting to
hit your next shot.
The course winds its way
through the development,
challenging your game
along the way while in an
enjoyably beautiful
setting. There are a great
variety of holes that dogleg
left and right. Long and
short par-4s and a reach-
able par-5 await you as
well,
The closing holes,
beginning with the stout
par-3 15th, are about the
best I have ever played.
The 16th is a tempting
and challenging par-5 that
ate me for lunch.

The finishing hole has
the most risk/reward on
the course. The lake
guarding the fairway begs
you to bite off as much as
you dare. The more you
bite off, the easier your
approach will be.
Be careful, this hole
bites back.

t BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT .

HANDYMAN MATTERS
Steve Fenton's goal is to have his company provide a professional
approach to the needs of his home improvement clientele. His is one of
the few home improvement companies to offer a one year warranty on
all of the work they perform.

ence with their home repairs, he wants his company to be the one that
* people go to when they want a guarantee that they are dealing with *
licensed contractors. "There are less than a dozen repairs that can be
performed without a contractor's license" states Steve and he gives
thanks everyday that he was able to attract top notch quality craftsmen
to work for him.
Being a small family run business is both challenging and rewarding.
"I'm in it for the long haul" stated Steve. When asked if he is happy
with the vlay his business is going, he answered "Never. We can
always do better. Our goal is to have someone think "Home Remodel
