0 HOW WEIRD
IS THAT?!
4 SEAN MCCARTHY


Spend any time surfing
the Web and you are
bound to find stories
that are just too bizarre to be
true. Here's a sampling,
edited for length. And
remember, just because it's
online doesn't mean it's true!
From www.enquirer.com:
Cincinnati man arrested 146
times since 1998
Authorities said Bennie
Crabtree is the most-arrested
man in the county. Records
show he has been arrested
146 times since 1998, when
Hamilton County's record-
keeping system was updat-
ed.
Veteran police officers said
he was arrested many more
times in the decades before
that.
Crabtree's record includes:
criminal trespassing,
disorderly conduct and theft.
Police say he steals food and
intrudes in places such as the
University of Cincinnati,
hospitals and businesses.
He's never done anything
serious enough to be sent to
prison. Because of jail
overcrowding, he's now often
released hours after arrest.
Police say the 61-year-old
man has lived mostly on the
streets and has some mental
problems. A social worker
says Crabtree is lonely.
From sfgate.com: Pizza
shop worker, 72, foils
robbers with beer can
Police said a 72-year-old
pizza shop employee foiled a
shotgun-point robbery, by
throwing a can of beer at the
perpetrators.
Lancaster Police Lt. Todd
Umstead said two men with
bandanas over their faces
attempted to rob Six Packs
onVine at closing time. One
of the men pointed a
shotgun at the employee,
who was stocking a cooler.
Umstead said the man
threw a 12-ounce can of beer
at the robber and both
assailants fled the store.

Passionate crowd urges congressman

MARTIN COUNTY- The chants of
"Don't back down!" when Republican
Congressman Thomas Rooney, R-
Jupiter, entered the Wolf High Tech-
nology Center set the pace for the
Aug. 18 town meeting to discuss the
Obama administration's healthcare
reform plans.
About 400 Martin County residents

into the Indian River State College

More than half were turned away,
as hundreds crammed into the
packed meeting room. But those who
remained made impassioned argu-
ments against what they described as
President Barack Obama's plan for
"socialized medicine," which they
said would rob citizens of options for
obtaining healthcare and provide free

"The nature of this
business means we could

this company anywhere,


so I thought, 'Why not live

SystemsOne founder
Thomas Arthur, who now
spends his days taking in

But Stuart was more
than just a pretty spot for
the entrepreneur, who
had spent eight years
doing business in Alaska.
"It was so far away from
everything and every-
body," he conceded.


"We're a medical based
company, and there are
more hospitals and activi-
ties going on here in
Florida than in Alaska."

About the
time St.
Lucie Coun-
ty Commis-
sioner Chris
announced Chris Craft
his cam-
paign for Congress, Repub-
licans began portraying
him as a tax and spender.
Those portrayals, which
Mr. Craft, a resident of Fort
Pierce, said last week began
even before he announced
his political intentions on
Aug. 5, are an example of
what is wrong with politics.
"It's the same old politics
and the people of Florida
deserve more," he said. "I'm
not going to be someone
who is beholden to either
party. I'm going to be some-
one who is going to answer
to people of the 16th Con-
gressional District, period."
Mr. Craft, running as a
Democrat, would oppose
Congressman Tom Rooney,

2010 general election to
represent the district that
includes most of St. Lucie

MARTIN COUNTY The
Florida Comprehensive
Assessment Test won't be
the sole factor in high
school grades in the 2009-10
school year.
The mere mention of the
FCAT in a school classroom
can often bring looks of
anxiety or worry, but that
may start to change when
the new school grading sys-
tem starts to count other
scholarly activities toward
the overall score.
FCAT will contribute 50
percent, or up to 800 points
of a school's grade, said Terri
D'Albora, Martin County
School District executive
director for instructional
services.
The remaining 800 points
will be scored based on
overall graduation rates,
graduation rates of at-risk
students, scores on post-
secondary readiness tests
such as the ACT, SAT and
CPT, a college placement
test and advanced class
work such as dual-enrolling
at a local college, taking
technical classes that offer
industry certification on
completion and advanced
placement or international
baccalaureate courses.
"Martin County is in a
very good place for this new
system, because we already
offer a lot of the higher-level
courses, so this will just be
an enhancement to our
grades," said, Ms. D'Albora.
The change is a result of a
Senate bill, which made
changes to the current Sun-
shine State Standards for
schools.

most special moments of
his life.
At the end of race at the
nationals, held at Stanford
University, Mr. Bobb's 84-
year-old father, Arthur,
noticed his son's name fea-
tured prominently on the
giant scoreboard. The swim-
mer had just placed fourth
in the 50-yard breast stroke.
He would later take sixth
place in the 100-yard event.
"My dad saw that and he
had tears in his eyes," Mr.
Bobb said. "He was so proud
to see his son's name on the
Jumbotron for everyone to
see. It was just such an
honor."
Martin County athletic
promoters say they too cele-
brated Mr. Bobb's first
national victories.
Although the Palm City
swimmer participated in
competitive events as a
highschooler in the 1970s,
and later on scholarship at
Oberlin College in Ohio, this
year marked his first foray

"It really is great to see
local seniors qualifying and
advancing onto state and
national games," said Jesse
Moore, sports and athletics
coordinator for the Martin
County Parks and Recre-
ation Department, which
hosts the local Golden
Games, set for Nov. 4.
"It's even better to see
them placing, especially in
the top eight. We are proud
of Fred and glad he repre-
sents Martin County's sen-
ior games at a national
level."
Fresh off his California
victories, Mr. Bobb is
preparing for the next local
meet, and plans to begin a
more disciplined workout
routine for his second show-
ing at the National Senior
Games, set for Houston in
2011.
The local swimmer wore
his Speedo swim trunks to
all events, even though his
competitors sported $600
suits that reportedly add

"We are reviewing all of
our technical classes and
making sure that all the
career classes have certifica-
tion available," said Ms.
D'Albora.
"We're monitoring and
strengthening our AP and IB
programs and want to give
our students every opportu-
nity to participate in them,"
she said.
According to the Florida
Department of Education
Web site, the Florida School
Recognition Program
rewards schools financially
for keeping their grades
high. For each A grade, or
letter improvement, the
school can earn $75 per stu-
dent.
The financial reward for
maintaining or improving
the grade by one letter will
not change.
By testing students more
often on their comprehen-
sion and understanding of a
topic, it will be easier to
identify education areas
that need strengthening
inside the schools, Ms.
D'Albora said.
"This also opens the
opportunity for the school
to get credit for programs
offered that we didn't get
any credit for before," she
said.
In 2008, South Fork High
School earned a B, while
Jensen Beach and Martin
County high schools earned
As.
A simulation of the new
grading system was done
based on historical data
gathered from Martin Coun-
ty high schools and the
scores remain virtually the
same as those received last
year, said Ms. D'Albora.

counties.
His comment led to rous-
ing applause and one of sev-
eral standing ovations during
the evening.
The audience's support for
the Republican representa-
tive was the opposite of the
reception many of his
Democratic colleagues


received at similar forums
across the nation.
A standoff between Rep.
Barney Frank, D-Mass., and
a protestor who compared
President Obama to Adolf
Hitler, for instance, drew
national headlines and made
the rounds on late-night
comedy shows.
This month's meeting in
Stuart attracted only a small
group of protesters, who
were vastly outnumbered


and who largely stood peace-
fully in the meeting room.
Meanwhile, proponents of
the healthcare reform bills
say the changes will help
provide medical care for 46
million Americans who have
no insurance and another
25 million who are underin-
sured as employers
increasingly cut or withdraw
healthcare benefits.
Supporters say the presi-
dent's proposal would create


a government-sponsored
health insurance plan for all
Americans, regardless of pre-
existing conditions, and
encourage preventative care
to thwart major diseases.
The Congressional Budget
Office, a nonpartisan group,
said the plan would save tax-
payers about $219 billion,
without resulting in hun-
dreds of billions in health-
care allocations to Medicare,
as critics have argued.

At this point, Mr. Rooney
isn't campaigning and
remains focused on serving
his constituents, said Jeffrey
Ostermayer, a spokesman.
He's not making any com-
ments on National Republi-
can Congressional Commit-
tee e-mails regarding Mr.
Craft, Mr. Ostermayer said.
"The 2010 election is the
furthest thing from his
mind," he said.
Andy Sere, regional press
secretary for the committee,
said he believes Congress-


man Rooney has done a
good job and is in fine shape
for re-election.
At the same time, he said,
Mr. Craft has a record and it
is his job to point out "what
the real record is" for the
county commissioner.
Mr. Craft, 36, a native of
Fort Pierce, said he got into
the election because many
people in the community
want an independent voice.
He said his main concerns
include agriculture, helping
veterans and dealing with
unemployment.
Mr. Craft said he's worked
to protect the environment
and create coalitions to


bring new jobs to the area.
But instead of focusing on
that, he said, Republicans
are spreading "half truths,
lies and innuendos."
His campaign notes news-
paper coverage showing
people are paying less in
county taxes than before he
took office.
While Mr. Sere notes that
St. Lucie County has one of
the highest unemployment
rates in the state, Mr. Craft's
campaign said the econom-
ic slump is of national pro-
portions. They contend the
unemployment rate is rising
at rate lower than the state
as a whole.


Mr. Craft said he's worked
with others, regardless of
party affiliation, to diversify
St. Lucie County's economy.
He said he believes people
want the more middle-of-
the road position that he is
offering.
Congressman Rooney's
position on health reform is
extreme, he added.
Mr. Ostermayer said Con-
gressman Rooney favors
health reform, but not the
plans promoted by Democ-
rats.
Mr. Craft said he's ready
for an honest debate, but if
extreme rhetoric dominates,
"the voters lose."

APATITE
Yes, there is a gemstone
named Apatite. It is a calci-
um phosphate mineral with a
hardness of 5. It is found in
Brazil, Burma and
Madagascar. There are also
deposits in India and Sir
Lanka. Its name is derived
from a Greek word meaning
'to deceive.' This is because
of the variety of colors and
formations in which this
stone occurs, making it easy
to mistake it for other miner-
als. It can be yellow, blue,
green, brown and gray or
colorless. The largest known
Apatite deposit is in Kirovsk,
Russia. The most popular
color is the light blue-green
and it pairs up beautifully
with the blue-green opals.
This gemstone is sensitive to
acids and has a fluores-
cence in a black light. This
remarkable gemstone also
occurs in a cat's-eye. The
best cutting style for this
gemstone is an oval, but
rounds work well too.
Rectangles are rare. These
beautiful gems are quite soft
and can be scratched with a
knife so every day wear is
not advised. They would be
better suite for a pendant or
earrings. This gem can be
confused with beryl or tour-
maline and synthetic apatite
is known. If you think you
have an apatite or would like
to see them we have jewelry
set with this special gem.
Take a moment to stop by
the store and see this pretty
gem for yourself.

Marine service


shop expands

MARTIN COUNTY A
local boat service center is
replacing its current building
with a modern upgrade as
part of plans to broaden its
operations.
River Forest Yachting Cen-
ter tore down an old building
that housed its machine
shop, parts-storage area and
employee area break room.
The replacement, currently
under construction, is a
50,000-square-foot center
featuring a climate-con-
trolled storage area for boats
and a workshop for repairing
and servicing marine vessels.
It will also feature an expand-
ed break room with employ-
ee showers, a large machine
shop and fabrication area,
space to house parts and a
covered service area.
'A new service area will
allow us, especially in the


summertime when it rains
just about every day, to con-
tinue working and not have
to send people home," said
general manager John Smith.
Construction is underway
on the project that is set to
cost between $250,000 and
$300,000, and create jobs for
construction crews and
skilled machinists.
Company administrators
say receptive county employ-
ees helped ease the process.
Larry Massing, Martin
County's building director,
oversaw permitting to slash
waiting times and save River
Forest thousands.
"There's a new attitude in
the county, and we appreci-
ate their efforts," Mr. Smith
said. "The interesting thing
about this is that we are
encouraged to reinvest in the
business. That's better for us
and for the community."

Slow down across the bridge

I know I am peculiar, but for some reason, I choose to
drive my car at the posted speed limit.
In my case, this means an often-traveled jaunt on A1A
and crossing the bridge.
For some reason, the bridge crossing inspires about 90
percent of drivers to suddenly step on the gas and overtake
me, going at least 55 or 60 mph.
Now, I can understand this if a man's wife is having a
baby, but I doubt this is the case for so many. What's the
hurry ?

Get the facts straight

I am appalled at the misinformation that is out there re:
health care.
I am a social worker and am very familiar with the servic-
es that are provided under our present system, especially to
our children. The system needs to be fixed and I wish con-
servatives would stop burying their heads in the sand. If we
don't invest in preventive health care, we will pay much
more later.
It costs more to visit an emergency room after the fact,
than if someone was able to get a yearly physical, for exam-
ple.
There is not enough room for me to give you examples of
how Medicaid has failed our children in this county, or how
parents have a really difficult time obtaining Kid Care in
Florida because of the incompetence of some of the people
who work in that office.
I'll give you one example. Last year, there was no ortho-
pedic surgeon in this county or within 70 miles of here
north or south who would accept Medicaid from a child
who had broken his arm. By the time we found someone
willing to do it pro bono, his arm had already begun to set
and it cost a lot more to fix it than if it had been treated ini-
tially.
So don't fool yourselves, people, and think that Medicaid
is a cure for the poor or the state-run system is available to
all.
I'd like to see what would happen if one of these people's
children had an issue and they could not get treated. Would
they still be screaming at the town hall meetings?
I am advising all people who are rational and who care
about other human beings to take the time to read and
learn what is really in the health bill. Don't assume that
what others are saying is correct. We can all disagree, but we
don't have to scream and call names. We all need to educate
ourselves.

Think about this

There is a very natural reaction for folks to be offended,
even angered, when they discover top executives of firms
that have received bailout money, still are given huge
salaries and bonuses, but for bureaucrats to get into the act
is indeed a slippery slope.
If that type of intrusion is seen as a legitimate function of
government, what is there to limit the powers of Washing-
ton to dictate the wages and salaries, and even the benefits
and working conditions, of each and every worker in the
entire nation?

Healthcare system costs

Anyone who believes our country can install a govern-
ment-run health care system without incurring dizzying
debt has not been listening.
While the citizens of this nation enjoy the best health care
on the globe, it is expensive. To experiment with something
mandated by Washington bureaucrats makes very little
sense.

This and that

Calling an illegal immigrant an undocumented alien is
like calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.

O'Rourke said:

P. J. O'Rourke said it. "If you think health care is expensive
now, wait until you see what is costs when it's free!"

Expert talks about nutrition, part 2


Hank Frier holds a
doctorate in
nutritional bio-
chemistry from the
University of Connecticut
and is an adjunct professor
at Indian River State
College, teaching nutrition
and diet therapy.
Last week, I wrote about
some of his views on
nutrition. This week, I'll
share more of his views.
Saturated and trans fats
have been in the news a
great deal. Saturated fat is
chiefly found in foods from
animals, including dairy
products, and from plants
such as coconuts and
palms.
Trans fats are formed
during the process of
hydrogenation. Processed
products, such as mar-
garine, shortening, cook-
ing oils and foods made
from them are the chief
sources of trans fats in our
diet. Mr. Frier spoke of the
importance of limiting
both.
"I think it's a great idea
to ban trans fats from
foods," he said. "Saturated
fats raise LDL, or bad
cholesterol," he said.
"Trans fats raise bad
cholesterol and lower
HDL, or good cholesterol.
"Back in the 1940s and


1950s, it was decided that
people should reduce
saturated fats and eat more
vegetable oils. Scientists
knew that people liked
butter, so they looked to
replacements. They could
take liquid vegetable oil
and make it solid through
hydrogenation. People
were told not to eat butter,
but to eat margarine."
New scientific informa-
tion has changed that
thinking.
"We're finding out, in the
last 15 years, that it has not
benefited the health of the
nation," he said. "People
are still at risk for heart
disease. Now, everyone
says, 'no trans fats.' The
FDA allows baked goods to
say they have 0 trans fats
even with a gram. There's
no significance if you don't
eat a lot of baked goods,
but if you do eat a lot,
you're picking up a lot of
trans fats.
"People should limit
baked goods intake and
read labels. They should


understand that if they say
0, it may have up to a
gram."
Mr. Frier suggested olive
oil as a spread for bread
and cooking and says
liquid oils, such as canola
oil, are preferable to solid
fats.
He also spoke about the
fine line between foods,
foods that make health
claims and drugs.
"The food industry
would love to make
claims," he said. "Anything
that prevents or mitigates
disease is a drug, accord-
ing to the FDA. If you say
you prevent heart disease,
you are a drug."
Mr. Frier also spoke
about healthy eating for
weight loss.
"If you expand the
difference between protein
and carbs and raise the
amount of protein and
lower the carbs, there'll be
greater weight loss," he
said. "There's also an
improvement in body
composition and people
lose more body fat."
He suggested staying
away from refined carbs,
found in processed foods,
because they are believed
to stimulate insulin
production and add to
weight gain.


"The diet that seems to
work best is lean protein,
which leaves you less
hungry, and complex
carbs, including brown
rice, cauliflower, broccoli,
leafy vegetables, carrots
and bok choy," he said.
He also recommended a
multivitamin with miner-
als with such a diet.
"It doesn't matter if you
eat three meals a day or
graze," he said. "Do
whatever works for you,
what you can live with.
That's true for any diet."

Shelley Koppel is unable
to endorse specific treat-
ments for disease. Any
protocols for treatment or
testing she discusses are
accepted standards of
medical practice as
recommended by agencies
such as the American
Academy of Pediatrics or
the American Cancer
Society. When she draws
from personal experience,
those are her experiences
and are not medical
recommendations.
She is the former editor
of "Today's HealthCare"
magazine and a member of
the National Association of
Science Writers. E-mail

Free site pulls financial data into one place


personal computers
have always been
good for keeping
track of finances. There are
plenty of programs, such
as Quicken, Microsoft
Money, Quickbooks and
Turbo Tax out there to help
with the task and most
online banking systems do
a pretty good job, too.
With all the different
programs out there, it can
be confusing just deciding
where to start. Then (after
shelling out hard-earned
cash for the right software)
setting up your program
can be a challenging.
There has got to be a
better way and I think I
may have found it.
Fire up your Web brows-
er, head over to
www.Mint.com and take a
look around. This free
service is one of those rare
sites that really delivers
quality content without
the spyware, annoying ads,
viruses and other
"gotchas" that often plague
other free sites. After
spending a week or so
checking it out I have to
admit I'm impressed.
So, what is it? Mint.com
is a personal finance site
that gathers all your
financial information into
one place so you can see
exactly where all of your
money is coming from and
where it's going.
The operative phrase


here is that "it gathers" the
data. It works by itself
immediately after signing
up, and when you are
done, all of your accounts
are summarized and
displayed in one place. No
more logging into multiple
sites to see where you
stand.
Let me run through it
real quick.
Once you connect to
Mint.com and read up a
bit, click the free "get
started here" button. You
will be asked for your e-
mail, ZIP code and a
password to use.
Click the next button
and you will be asked for
your first bank's URL or
Web address. Enter your
bank's online banking
information and repeat the
steps for all of your
accounts.
You can enter your
online banking informa-
tion for your checking,
savings, all of your differ-
ent credit cards, your auto
loan, mortgage, even your
PayPal account.
Once all of your
accounts are added, Mint
will give you a summary of


what the balances are, the
interest rates and (most
importantly) where all of
your money is going from
all accounts at the same
time. There is even a free
iPhone app that works
with Mint, so you can have
all of your information at
your fingertips when you
are out and about.
I know many of you are
reluctant to use online
banking for fear of identity
theft, let alone giving one
Web site all the informa-
tion it needs to access all
of your accounts.
In fact, I'm sure that
right now people are
reading this thinking I
must be crazy to even
suggest it. However, as you
may or may not know, I am
a certified identity theft
risk management special-
ist, and I do know a thing
or two about these mat-
ters.
And (after careful
research and considera-
tion) I can tell you that
Mint.com is secure. The
Web site has an enormous
amount of information
regarding security, but
what it boils down to is
this: when you create your
account you are anony-
mous (all you enter is
email, ZIP code and login
information you don't
even enter your name), the
site uses the same level of
encryption the banks use,


and all of the information
is "read only," so even if a
miscreant got hold of your
login information, they
may be able to see how
much money you spent at
Starbucks this month, but
they can't do things such
as move money around or
even see any of the actual
account information (such
as names, pins or account
numbers).
But why bother? I
actually have known about
Mint for a while now but
put off checking it out
because I didn't really see a
need. I can see everything I
need to see by logging into
each of my accounts and
looking, so why do I need a
site like Mint?
Well, as soon as I set up
my account, I realized I
was looking at a winner.
There is something to be
said for having all of your
information available
summarized in one login
screen and some of Mint's
tools (such as the budget-
ing and analysis stuff) are
really helpful to under-
stand where the hell all the
money goes every month.
Maybe, just maybe
www.Mint.com can help
even me get my financial
act together.

Now that the cash for
clunkers program has
ended, I thought it would be
good to rerun my original
column on this subject.
My belief about the
program being ill thought
out remains, but I'm hopeful
about there being some
economic benefit. This will
be decided in the next few
months based on whether
the demand for new vehicles
"falls off a cliff' because
clunker deals were not fresh
business. There is a fear that
we merely borrowed sales
from the future from those
who would have bought a
new car in the next few
months anyway.
The cash for clunkers

pertinent to a sale or how a
dealership's cash-flow would
virtually dry up by not
paying dealers promptly. You
will be reading about
dealerships that were
literally put out of business
by this program because they
did not receive the money
from their sales from
NHTSA.
As I write this preface, less
than 10 percent of the $3
billion has reached dealers.
My own dealership is owed
more than $1 million.
Because dealers make far
less than $4,500 or $3,500 on
a sale, every clunker transac-
tion drove them further into
a negative-cash position,
some to the point of bank-
ruptcy, and thousands were
forced to quit the program


to launch at 3 p.m. on Aug. 30
and run until Sept. 6. All pro-
ceeds will benefit the animal
shelter, clinic and other pro-
grams.

early.
Once again, our
Congress and Senate
have proven they are
out of touch with reality or,
perhaps more likely, simply
inclined to pass any legisla-
tion that will get them re-
elected.
The "Cash for Clunkers"
bill passed the House and
the Senate and awaits
President Obama's signa-
ture. It is supposed to help
energy conservation
because it will take higher
gas mileage vehicles off the
road. It's also supposed to
help our floundering
economy because it will
incentivize owners of
"clunkers" to buy new cars.
When the driver of a
clunker, defined to be a
vehicle with relatively poor
gas mileage and worth up to
$4,500, trades it in he gets a
voucher for either $3,500 or
$4,500. Then the dealer
must scrap that vehicle.
Here's why our politicians
are out of touch with reality.
Our country is in the worst
economic condition since
the Great Depression. The
most severely affected are
those at the lower end of the


economic spectrum.
Arguably, even more
important than housing to
this class of people is
transportation (you can
sleep in your car). It's not
possible for many to get to
work without a car. It's not
even possible for many to
look for work without car.
How about taking your
children to school or getting
to a doctor or hospital?
These are the people who
buy "clunkers" because they
don't have the credit to buy
anything more expensive.
Or maybe they can't get any
credit at all and can afford
only cars cheap enough to
afford to buy for cash.
If this legislation works
the way the politicians say
they want it to, it will
remove most clunkers from
the road and drive up the
prices of those few remain-
ing to make them unafford-
able to those who have no
other transportation option.
Of course, a lot of the
economically challenged
are already driving clunkers.
The new law doesn't permit
them to use the $3,500 or
$4,500 voucher to buy a
nicer, more reliable used

"CAR DEALERS-


SMARTEN UP" ,

YOUR CUSTOMERS ALREADY HAVE.

EARL STEWART s ARL

STOYOTA


An Open Letter to Florida Car Dealers.

Eliminate the "Dealer Fee".


Fellow Florida Car Dealers, if you don't
know me, I should tell you that I don't profess
to be some "holier than thou" car dealer who
was always perfect for the past 38 years.
When I look at some of my past advertising
and sales tactics, I am not always proud.
But I have evolved as my customers have
evolved. My customers' expectations, level
of education and sophistication are much
higher today. Your customers are no different.
My remarks are made sincerely and with a
positive intent toward you and your custom-
ers. I am not trying to tell you
how to run your business. I "My cu
am suggesting a change that
will reward both you and your expectatf
customers.


EMPLOYMENT
If our culture
sounds like one
that fits with your
ideas on the way
business should
be conducted,
please call us.
561*844.3461
We need to add
to our team in all
departments...
sales, service,
parts, body shop,
and accounting.


Virtually every car dealer of educa
in Florida adds a charge to
the price of cars he sells, a Sophistic
"dealer fee/doc fee/dealer
prep" fee ranging from $500 much hig
to nearly $1,000. This extra
charge is programmed into
your computer. It has been made illegal in
many states including California, but is still
legal in Florida. The reason you charge this
fee is simply to increase the price of the car
and your profit in such a manner that it is not
noticed by your customers. This is just plain
wrong. I used to charge a dealer fee ($495)
and when I stopped charging it a few years
ago it was scary. But I did it because I could
no longer, in good conscience, mislead my
customers. Just because everybody else
was doing the same thing, did not make it
correct.


t
ca
)h4


Now, here is the good news. After eliminat-
ing the dealer fee my profit per car did drop
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-
door price with no "surprises". And the word
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
more cars. I was and am selling cars to many
of your former customers. My bottom line
has improved, not because I eliminated the
dealer fee, but because I was
tomers' able to earn the trust of more
customers in buying their new
Ons, level or used car. You can do the
same.
ion and Why am I writing this letter?
I'm not going to tell you that
nation are I think of myself as the new
"sheriff' that has come to
er today." "clean up South Florida". In
fact, I am well aware that this
letter is, to some extent, self-
serving. Many people will read this letter and
learn why they should buy a car from me,
and not you. And, I am also aware that most
dealers who read this will either get angry and
ignore it or not have the courage to follow my
lead. But maybe you will be the exception. If
you have any interest in following my lead,
call me anytime. I don't have a secretary and
I don't screen any of my phone calls. I would
love to chat with you about this.
Sincerely,
Earl Stewart Earl Stewart Toyota

Have you always wanted
to learn how to golf ? Try
the Professional Golfing
Association complex.
The PGA Center for Golf
Learning and Performance
provides instruction and
the chance to practice vir-
tually every shot. There are
simulations of various golf

gy to analyze your swing.
For those who want to
learn about the how the
game developed, the PGA
Historical Center traces
golf's history from the
1500s, in what is believed
to the be the first mention
of the game.
There's a 54-hole cham-
pion course open year
round. During the last two
years, it was renovated.
PGA Village also has a
short course that's billed as
a good venue for all mem-


bers of the family to play
golf together.
Michael Abramowitz,
who handles public rela-
tions for PGA, said the
facility gets a lot of vaca-
tioners who come to play
golf.

car. They may only buy a
much more expensive
new car.
Unfortunately, most
people with bad or no
credit, who are forced to
drive a clunker, won't be
able to get financed on a
new car, even with the
$3,500-$4,500 down
payment.
Logic dictates that no
one would have his
vehicle scrapped for a
$4,500 voucher if was
worth more than $4,500.
But who is to say what a
clunker is really worth?
I can tell you from my
40 plus years in the retail
auto business that you
can show a used car to
five different used car
managers and get five
different opinions as to
what it's worth.
I advise consumers to
shop their trade-in to at
least three different car
dealers before they
accept a trade-in
allowance from the
dealer they buy from.
Typically you will see a
$2,000 to $5,000 differ-
ence between the 3
professional opinions. I
see nothing in the
legislation to control this
variable. I can guarantee
there will be thousands
of vehicles scrapped that
are worth more than the
voucher amount. How
will you feel knowing
that you paid $4,500 of
your tax dollars to scrap
a car that had a market
value of $6,000?
To the extent that
lower gas mileage
vehicles are taken off the
roads, this is good. But
energy conservation is
not our country's top
priority right now. We
need to think about
cutting our 10 percent
plus unemployment in
half. Scrapping the only
cars that many of our
unemployed can afford
to buy and driving up the
prices of those that
remain is not the right
way to go about this.
Car dealers love this
because of the general
lack of understanding of
this new law will likely
drive potential buyers
into their showrooms.
You can argue that this is
good, because it will
stimulate new car
buying. But is it good to
stimulate the economy
through deception?
I'm already getting
solicitations from
marketing companies
with all sorts of cute
ideas about how to
exploit this legislation.
You can expect to see an
advertising media blitz
on "Cash for Clunkers."
I will end this column
on a positive note. One
Congressman who voted
against this legislation is
Tom Rooney from
District 16, my district.
There are always a few
who vote their con-
science and not what will
get them reelected.
Unless we recognize and
vote for guys such as
Tom Rooney, this
endangered species will
vanish.


Pay attention to


your property


assessment notice


Howis it
that your
county
property
appraiser
raises taxes
on your
property
year after
year, while
the sales
prices of Ira
homes in Weintraub
your area
continue to drop year after
year?
The nation's economy over
the past few years has shown
just how unstable the real
estate industry can be.
From 2002-05, the real
estate industry, particularly
in South Florida, went
through one of the biggest
booms in American history.
Times were good and
property owners were
making money in the real
estate market. Property
owners were not overly
concerned when they
received their annual
property assessment from
the county property apprais-
er's office because the annual
assessment was typically
lower than what the owner
could sell it for.
Then, the hurricanes of
Katrina and Wilma hit in late
2005, and the nation's
economy and the real estate
market, especially in South
Florida, began to drop off.
Today, the nation's
economy has continued its
rapid decline into one of the
worst recessions in 20 years.
The market value of real
property is not what it was
worth just a few years ago.
It is time to take notice and
a hard look at your county
property appraiser's assess-
ment of your property. There
is a real chance that they
have valued your property
too high. Even if the
assessed value is less than it
was last year, it may not have
gone down enough.
Each August, property
owners receive an assess-
ment notice from the county
property appraiser's office,
which sets forth the amount
of property tax due based on
the value of real property.
The property taxes are
imposed against the land
and all improvements to the
land to arrive at a "just


value," which is the fair and
reasonable value of the
property based on inde-
pendent valuation methods.
To arrive at "just value" the
county property appraisers
take into consideration
various characteristics of the
property such as location,
size, condition, highest and
best use of the property and
if an income-producing, the

Book of Martin & St. Lucie
counties are hosting a read-

a.m.-noon at Harborage
Yacht Club in Stuart. Tickets
to the event cost $15.
Ms. Florida, Juli Goldstein
will read to children on Aug.
29, from 10 a.m.-noon. There
are many children from low-
income families living in
Martin and St. Lucie counties
with little or no access to
books.
With the support of Ms.
Goldstein and the communi-
ty, First Book of Martin & St.
Lucie counties is working to
put new books into the hands
of children in need.
"I am delighted to partner
with First Book of Martin and
St. Lucie counties to bring
books to the children in this
community," she said.
"By working together, we
can end illiteracy in Martin


and St. Lucie counties."
First Book of Martin and St.
Lucie counties is part of First
Book's national network of
volunteer-led advisory
boards that provide new
books to children in need in
communities across the
country.
First Book has been distrib-
uting books to programs
serving low-income children
since 2008.
In 2008, more than 4,000
books were distributed to
children participating in pro-
grams, including Indiantown
Middle School and Future
Generations of St. Lucie
County.
The event will include chil-
dren's activities, refreshments,
gift bags and prizes.
First Book of Martin & St.

month at the Stuart Fire Res-
cue Station 1.

it was enough to chase them

From Livescience.com:
Giant plant eats rodents
A giant plant that can
gobble up bugs and rodents
has been discovered in
Southeast Asia.
The carnivorous plant was
found by researchers atop
Mount Victoria, a remote
mountain in Palawan,
Philippines.
The research team, led by
Stewart McPherson of Red
Fern Natural History
Productions, learned of the
plant in 2000 after a group of
Christian missionaries
stumbled on it while trekking
up a remote mountain and
reported it to a local newspa-
per.
The pitcher plant is the
world's second largest and
can grow to more than 4- feet
tall, with a pitcher-shaped
structure filled with liquid.
The plant secretes nectar
around the pitcher's mouth
to lure rats, insects and other
prey into its trap. Once an
animal has fallen in,
enzymes and acids in the
fluid break down the carcass
of the drowned victim.
From News.Yahoo.com:
"Putpockets" give a little
extra cash
Visitors to London always
have to be on the lookout for
pickpockets, but now there's
another, more positive
phenomenon on the loose:
putpockets.
Aware that people are
suffering in the economic
crisis, 20 former pickpockets
have turned over a new leaf
and are now trawling
London's tourist sites,
slipping money back into
unsuspecting pockets.
Anything from 5 pounds
($8) to 20 pound notes are
being surreptitiously
deposited in unguarded
pockets or open handbags in
Trafalgar Square, Covent
Garden and other busy spots.

program to debut
The Lyric Theatre and the
Educational Foundation of

nered to establish an artist

major artists like Nestor
Torres directly into the

music educators and stu-
dents," he said. "It is our
goal to motivate and edu-
cate as many as our chil-
dren as we can by having
them work directly with the
artists."

JENSEN BEACH Mark
Johnson's life has always
centered on the water.
He worked in southwest
Florida as a fishing guide,
occasionally mounting the
catch or making replicas of
it. He noticed people often
enjoyed the finished prod-
uct more than they enjoyed
fishing.
A boat builder by trade,
Mr. Johnson came to the
Treasure Coast eight years
ago because of a job oppor-
tunity in the field. His
career as a professional
artist began at about the
same time, although he had
painted most of his life.
Known for his paintings
of marine life and his land-
scapes of Florida, the Flori-
da native spoke recently
about his work.
For his scenes of marine
life, Mr. Johnson takes
inspiration from snorkeling
and viewing the ocean from
below. He spends a lot of
time on and beneath the
water.
"It's a whole different
world underwater," he said.
"I remember vividly the col-
ors, the turquoises and
deep blues. The sunlight
comes through the water
and reflects, even on the
bottom."
The artist often works
with gesso on canvas or
Masonite. The gesso, a

sanded when it dries so that
it becomes smooth.
"You can really get detail
when it's smooth he said.
"It's like the fish."
He also enjoys painting
on linen, which gives a dif-
ferent look to his work
Mr. Johnson paints from
memory and his imagina-
tion. When he prepares to
paint a landscape, he some-
times does sketches first.
He recently completed a
large mural for White's
Tackle Shop in Fort Pierce
and accepts commissions
for both marine scenes and
landscapes.


"I'll accept a commission
and the customer gives me
an idea," Mr. Johnson said.
"I'll surprise them and put a
lot more in it. People love
the bright colors and they
love marine life in this
area."
Jim Kasper, who owns
Zafka Gallery in Jensen
Beach, carries Mr. Johnson's
work.
"Mark is one of my pre-
mier artists," he said. "Not
only does he have an amaz-
ing ability to capture nature
on canvas, he has a down-
to-earth, approachable atti-
tude.

Aries-March 21-April 19
Focus on a healthy lifestyle
that includes one or two fun
things every day. Your play-
ful nature will carry you
safely through any of life's
challenges. This is the spirit
of Aries at its best. Take care
of the most important
things first. What makes you
happy? Now the rest of the
earthly stuff falls into place.
Yeah, Aries!

Taurus-April 20-May 20
Resist the temptation to
take on more than you can
handle. Refuse to let nega-
tive attitudes of others
knock you off course. When
worry begins, slow down,
take a step back, take a
deep breath and refocus
your energy. Now with the
second wind, move forward
and you will see positive
results coming in abun-
dance.

Gemini-May 21 -June 21
Living in harmony is the pri-
mary goal this week. How
much discord are you will-
ing to tolerate. Maybe it's
time to leave your comfort
zone and explore new ways
and ideas you have been
thinking about. Refine and
sharpen your life's tools.
Now add new ones that will
keep you on the edge and
move your up and higher.

Cancer-June 22-July 22
Your strongest gift is your
way with people. It's all
because of your great heart.
You were born with this
awesome loving nature at
birth. Cancer, Scorpio and
Pisces. Wow! What an honor
to be around great heart
souls like you. It's time that
we all wake up and realize
that you are our heart of life
and give it honor.

Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
Your circle of influence with
creative people continues.
Your emotional and creative
growth is at an all- time
high. This will open doors
for you for a long time.
Reduce stress, slow it down
and back off. It's your life,
thank you very much. Your
greatest results are because
you take positive action on
good ideas in your life.

Scopes
From page B1
pose. You have a deep sense
of appreciation for life. This
attracts others who have
your values. It is a simple
plan. It is ideal. Your high
standards demand that you
live this way. Now you con-
tinue on the way to great joy
and happiness.

Libra-Sept. 23-Oct.22
Measure the quality and joy
in your own life by the hap-
piness you feel and express
in your own heart. You were
born to be of service to oth-
ers. Whenever you feel out
of sorts, it is because you
have let your own energy get
unbalanced. Get back to it
and continue to move for-
ward to great rewards. You
can and will do it.

Scorpio-Oct. 23-Nov. 21
You have an emotional edge


this week. The planets are in
positive alignment for you.
This is like a booster rocket
giving you extra thrust to
send your dreams into orbit
when you need the push.
Now is a good time to take
action on your greatest
dream. It you do, great, posi-
tive results are bound to
happen.

Sagittarius-Nov. 22-Dec. 21
You have a guardian angel
blessing and protecting you.
Why? It is because of your
large heart and spirit
embracing and surrounding
you with light. Your large
heart knows no bounds. The
universe loves you. Are you
ready to receive back all you
give to others? It is so excit-
ing to see a bumper crop
coming your way.

Capricorn-Dec. 22-Jan. 19
You are very clear with your
thinking and feelings. Why?
Because you are following

your instincts and trusting
your gut more than your
head. Resist the temptation
of getting sidetracked in the
ways of the world. You have
come too far for this. Live
one a day at a time. Your
heart rules. You are on the
way to greatness.

Aquarius-Jan. 20-Feb. 18
Your great ideas continue to
flow. You follow your
instincts. You listen more to
your heart than your head.
You have an uncanny ability
to stay away from the
world's thinking and stay in
your own wise counsel. This
just may be why you were
chosen to lead the world in
the Age of Aquarius. You are
doing a great job.

Pisces-Feb. 19-March 20
It is very important to speak
your daily affirmations
before you start your earthly
days. Psyche yourself up.
This is soul food. It gives you


the spiritual strength to help
you through the day. Suc-
cessful people and winners
in life do this. You are a win-
ner. Keep your heart and
spirit open. Great blessings
are sure to follow.

t -7, A Delightful
OW'e English Comedy
by John Chapman and Dave Freeman
A wickedly amusing play by two English Master
craftsmen of Comedy. A play of confusing mayhem
when a divorcee living in an elegant flat in England
solves her financial woes by discreetly (or maybe not
so discreetly) entertaining two married gentleman
callers on different days of the week. Splendid farcical
situations and a climax that is sheer comic wizardry.

Gift to benefit


children's services


For Hometown News
News@hometownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY -
David Smythe, who turned
82 on Aug. 10, made a cash
gift of $2 million to Martin
Memorial Hospital, bene-
fiting children's services.
In gratitude for his gen-
erosity, the portion of Mar-
tin Memorial Medical Cen-
ter that houses the
maternal-child depart-
ment will be named in his
honor.
It is the second large gift
from Mr. Smythe, who
made a $500,000 gift to the
hospital in June 2008 after
being impressed with the
care he received at the
health system's wound
medicine center.
In November 2008, the
David L. Smythe Wound
Center officially opened its
doors, after moving from
its previous location to a
new office at 314 Hospital
Ave. in Stuart.
"Getting a gift is not as
rewarding as giving a gift.
That's why I wanted to do
this on my birthday,
because you receive a
tremendous benefit from
the act of giving," said Mr.
Smythe.
"I wanted to be able to
help children and their
families and this is one
way I can accomplish
that," he said.


Funds will be used to
support Martin Memorial's
maternal-child, pediatric
rehabilitation and pedi-
atric programs in Martin
and St. Lucie counties.
In addition, an endow-
ment established by the
gift will also provide annu-
al funding for those pro-
grams, as well as other
programs within the
health system.
Mr. Smythe, who splits
his time between Stuart
and Summit, N.J., has a
long history of community
involvement, thanks in
part to his business suc-
cess.
In 1959 he purchased an
American Motor Corp.
franchise in Summit and a
few years later, opened
Smythe Volvo there.

Agency provides grocenes to seniors


For Hometown News MARTIN COUNTY In
News@hometownnewsol.com addition to daily food
through Meals on Wheels and
senior dining centers, the Council on Aging of Martin
County is now providing monthly groceries for seniors in
need.
Since February, the Council on Aging has underwritten
bulk food distribution for 100 to 125 hungry seniors the
last Saturday of every month.
"During this recession, we are seeing seniors really
struggle who had once earned middle-income wages,"
said Bonnie Ares Royster, the director of development.
"These folks are able to shop and cook for themselves.
They just can't afford to buy all of the food that they

need," she said.
The Council on Aging partners with a national charity,
a local church, a Tequesta family foundation and indi-
vidual donors to provide these monthly groceries.
But, in spite of a successful partnership, there are cur-
rently 25 seniors on a waiting list to receive this monthly
food.
Incorporated in 1974, the Council on Aging of Martin
County is a charity providing services to seniors in need.
Donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
The Council is located at 1071 S.E. 10th St., Stuart. For

Hospital gets gift


from entrepreneur

For Hometown News
News@hometownnewsol.com
TREASURE COAST Wayne Huizenga, the South
Florida entrepreneur and former owner of the Miami
Dolphins and Florida Marlins, recently provided a $1 mil-
lion gift to the Martin Memorial Foundation.
In appreciation for his contribution, Martin Memorial
will name the emergency center lobby in honor of Wayne
and Marti Huizenga.
"As residents of the Treasure Coast, Wayne and Marti
Huizenga recognize the importance of having access to
high-quality health care close to home," said Mark E.
Robitaille, president and chief executive officer of Martin
Memorial.
"This gift will assist us in providing that care. We are
deeply appreciative of their generosity and for their com-
mitment to health care in this community," he said.
Because funds from the Huizenga gift are unrestricted,
they will be used throughout the health system based on
need. That can include everything from purchasing new
technologies and equipment, to funding continuing edu-
cation for nursing staff.
Funds could also benefit the Martin Memorial Emer-
gency Center at St. Lucie West, an off-site emergency
department in Port St. Lucie. The emergency center will
be open seven days a week, 24 hours a day, but will not
provide inpatient beds. It will be staffed and equipped to
handle many of the same emergencies a hospital would,
though patients with more severe injuries or ailments will
be taken to appropriate facilities.
Martin Memorial Health Systems is a nonprofit, com-
munity-based healthcare organization.
