SP HOW WEIRD
IS THAT?!
SSEAN MCCARTHY
^-r


pend 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 msnbc.msn.com:
Woman lay dead in bed for
eight months
The body of an elderly
woman remained in her bed
for up to eight months even
though caretakers paid daily
visits to the house and kept
it tidy, authorities said.
New Hanover County
District Attorney Benjamin
David told a news confer-
ence that a concealment of
death charge would be filed
against a family member,
although he declined to
identify the person by name.
"There is no question it
was known to the family and
should have been commu-
nicated to law enforce-
ment," he said. "This is not
tolerated under North
Carolina law and it is not
tolerated by this law
enforcement community."
Failure to report a death is
a low-level felony in North
Carolina. David said the
person charged may not
face jail time depending on
any prior criminal record.
From news.yahoo.com:
Self-styled vampire jailed
for threatening judge
A man who claims to be
the leader of a group of
vampires has pleaded guilty
to charges he threatened to
torture and kill an Indi-
anapolis judge and his
family.
Rocky Flash, 45, also
known as Jonathon Sharkey,
was sentenced in a Marion
County court to more than
two years in jail. Prosecutors
say the man threatened to
beat, torture, impale,

Airline offers direct flights to Bahamas


By Samantha Joseph
Joseph@hometownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY News of
direct flights from Martin County
to the Bahamas earned a round of
applause from Steve Bain, a Stuart
resident who travels to the islands
for vacation at least once a year.
Mr. Bain, who has several rela-
tives living in the Bahamas, says
he commutes up to an hour to
Broward or Palm Beach counties
for flights to that country.
"I never expected to depart
locally," he said.
But a new service from Stuart-
based Treasure Coast Airlines has
brought departures from Witham
Field, with a stop at St. Lucie


County International Airport,
three times a week.
For $285, passengers can pur-
chase round-trip tickets to Marsh
Harbor and Walker's Cay, with
departures at 8:30 a.m. on Mon-
day, Wednesday and Friday.
The two island destinations are
popular fishing spots, and airline
officials say news of the service
generated about 300 calls and 150
bookings in two weeks.
"Everybody's positive about it,"
said Danny Krachun, Treasure
Coast Airlines' director of opera-
tions.
The 16-year-old charter compa-
ny began selling individual seats
this month in response to client
demand.


"We noticed that a SERV
lot of our customers
travel to Marsh Har- rWW
bor in the Bahamas, 772-
and we thought we'd
try to make it more
affordable for them.
Instead of a private HE
charter, we started C
a scheduled run,
where we sold
seats to the same
people for a much reduced
rate," Mr. Krachun said.
Instead of hiring a private char-
ter to Marsh Harbor for up to
$1,800, travelers can travel for a
fraction of that cost on the airline's
nine-seater planes.
"We've been getting quite a few

image of a rescued turtle
lazing in a pond at the
Jensen Beach Environmen-
tal Center now holds a
prominent sport at the
Elliott Museum.
The animal caught the
eye of Jensen Beach artist
Maria Aguirre, who pho-
tographed it, and later
made it the subject of Tortu-
ga, her award-winning, oil-
on-canvas painting.
The art piece snagged
first place at the Elliott
Museum's sixth annual
juried art show. Its title
translates to turtle, and it
represented Ms. Aguirre's
interpretation of the contest
theme, "Florida Expressions
and Reflections."
The work beat out nearly
330 competitors to capture
the top prize for the first-
time entrant.
"It was a great, great
pleasure to win," said Ms.
Aguirre. "I'd heard about the
contest over the years, but
never submitted anything.
I'm glad I did this time."
The painter was one of
several first-time entrants,
said Ozzie Monzon, the
museum's deputy director.
"The exciting part is that
it brought out a lot of new
artists from the communi-
ty...," he said. "It was very
exciting to see that new
generation of artists."
The art contest also drew
top judges, including
Robert Sindelir, director
emeritus at Miami-Dade
Community College's
Kendall Campus Art Gallery
and a founding director of
Dade County Art in Public
Places. The gallery director
has also curated more than
200 exhibitions, including
the 25th anniversary edition
of the Florida Visual Arts fel-
lowships.
Apart from Ms. Aguirre,
the judges selected other
first-time entrants for top
prizes.
Doug Macon's Quiote's

place, while Peggy Packer's

prize.

"It's kind of an outreach,"
said Debbie Henderson,
principal of Indiantown
Middle School. "The stu-
dents take the kits home and
teach their parents."
In less than a week, train-
ers had taught the tech-
niques to all seventh graders
at the two schools, accord-
ing to information from
Cathy Brennan, public infor-
mation officer for the Martin
County School District.
"In an emergency situa-
tion, knowing how to cor-
rectly perform CPR can help
save lives. What makes this
program so unique is that
not only will the students
benefit from the training,
but also their friends and
family," said Superintendent
Nancy Kline. "We hope to
work with the American
Heart Association in the
future to expand this pro-
gram to more schools in the
district."

with medication. But for some people, even with
treatment, painful heartburn (a burning discomfort
or pain behind your breastbone) is an ongoing
problem. Now, local doctors are conducting a

Have been experiencing GERD symptoms for
at least three months,
Have been taking a Proton Pump Inhibitor

only have partial relief of your symptoms,
Experience heartburn symptoms at least
three days a week, and
Be willing to remain on your PPI medication

ALREADY REDUCED CONSIGNMENT PRICING

A video wall in the control room of the Transportation Management Center in Broward County allows operators to view
the video feed from dozens of cameras on the highway. Operators can then report any incidents and help improve
response times to accidents, and can send out alerts to dynamic message signs to let motorists of potential delays.


Improvements coming to Treasure

Coast stretch of interstate next year


By Jessica Tuggle
jtuggle@hometownnewsol.com
TREASURE COAST -The
Florida Department of
Transportation hopes to
improve traffic flow along
the Treasure Coast section
of Interstate-95 next year.
Plans call for installation
of 12 dynamic message
signs along the 71-mile
stretch, eight on-duty Road
Rangers, 60 closed-circuit
cameras and 98 vehicle
detector systems by the end
of 2010, officials said.
"The goal is to detect,
respond and remove traffic
incidents as quickly as pos-
sible," said Chuck McGin-


ness, traffic incident man-
agement coordinator.
The closed-circuit cam-
eras do not record videos of
traffic, like red-light cam-
eras do, instead, the cam-
eras allow traffic manage-
ment staff to watch live
feeds of roadways and see
where problems occur, he
said.
"The cameras are never
used for enforcement," Mr.
McGinness said.
The dynamic message
signs will alert drivers of
accidents and potential
delays in the road and lets
drivers decide if a route
change is necessary.
The message signs will


also be used to spread the
word about Amber and Sil-
ver alerts, Mr. McGinness
said, which are for missing
youngsters and seniors
Safety for both drivers
and emergency personnel is
the main reason for improv-
ing traffic flow and emer-
gency response time, he
said.
"Fifteen to 20 percent of
accidents are secondary
accidents, usually caused by
people rubbernecking and
having their eyes off the
road," Mr. McGinness said.
"If the police officers and
fire rescue are out there less
time, it means they're not
exposed to the danger," he


said.
The main goal of Road
Rangers is to assist
motorists with tire changes,
minor repairs and occasion-
ally, gas, but they also help
direct traffic around an acci-
dent, Mr. McGinness said.
The vehicle detector sys-
tems are to monitor poten-
tial trouble spots by measur-
ing the speeds of vehicles.
"If we find that at noon
traffic has slowed down to
40 mph in a 70 mph zone,
we know to zoom in on that
area and check out and see
if there's a problem," he said.
All of the improvements
are expected to be complet-
ed by the end of 2010.

Pair accused of faking
death from bad oysters
A couple was charged in
federal court in Sioux Falls
with faking the husband's
death to collect on life
insurance.
A woman, 39, and her 45-
year-old husband pleaded
not guilty to conspiracy to
commit mail fraud. The
wife was free on bond,
while the husband was
being held without bond.
Authorities said the
woman claimed her
husband died after eating
bad oysters during a
family vacation in
Malaysia in 2003. She
eventually settled the
insurance case with two
insurance companies for
$2 million. FBI agents
informed Sioux Falls-
based Midland National
Life about a year ago that
husband walked into the
U.S. Embassy in Jakarta,
Indonesia, and asked to
renew his passport. The
man was arrested in Guam
last month.

"CAR DEALERS



SMARTEN UP"

YOUR CUSTOMERS ALREADY HAVE.

EARL STEWART sEART

----BIII






An Open Letter to Florida Car Dealers.99

SEliminate 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
S 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 expectat
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.


Is
it


Virtually every car dealer Of eauca
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 higi
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.


SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING
SFOR CHRISTMAS


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
towers' 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
atiOn 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

Discrimination against single people?

A local golf course charges a married couple $1,203 for an
annual membership but they charge single people $1,792.
Why are they charging them $500 more? Why do they dis-
criminate against single people? That's not right.

Leave dogs home

I recently went to an art show and was surprised by the
number of dogs present. Dogs don't know a thing about art.
I didn't go there to see and hear dogs. I went to view art. I
don't understand why some people feel it necessary to
bring one, two and three dogs to those types of events. I
have a dog, and I wouldn't bring him to an art show. Some
dog owners are so inconsiderate.

Will the stimulus bill work?

The world's all-time biggest spender has signed a $24 bil-
lion economic stimulus bill, which is supposed to encour-
age job creation. No one knows if it will be effective.
Of course, the best way to proceed would be to get the
federal government to step back, get out of the way and
allow private enterprise to perform as it always has, based
on the proven concepts of individual initiative and eco-
nomic freedom.

Want security?

If you want total security, go to prison. There you are fed,
clothed, given medical care, and so on.
The only thing lacking is freedom.

Seniors will be affected

Proponents of government-run health care promise that
cuts to Medicare will not affect seniors' benefits.
That claim cannot be true because it is bad enough that
Democrats plan to cut nearly $500 billion from Medicare to
help pay for another unsustainable government program,
but their cuts to Medicare Advantage would reduce benefits
to many seniors who rely on that program.

More on health care dilemma

Despite their protestations about the need for openness
in government, the politicians who are determined to force
government-mandated health care on all of us, frequently
negotiate in secret and lock opponents out of the process.
When they decide on something they believe they can
sell, it has become common practice to rush their product
through Congress before anyone can read it.

Health care programs cost too much

In an effort to gain support for a government take-over of
health care, Democrats are trying to paint a picture of a
bipartisan effort. They have even run ads claiming that
Republican Bob Dole is in favor.
On the contrary, he is opposed, because these programs
cost far too much for individuals, families and small busi-
nesses.

Kill the death tax

We work all our lives and pay income taxes, sales taxes
and all kinds of other taxes. Then when we die, our heirs are
required to pay an inheritance tax, also known as the death
tax.
Recognizing the unfairness of this unnecessary addition-
al tax, a group of Congressmen recommended that it be
repealed. All of the Republicans supported repeal. However,
the big spenders in Congress prevailed. Taxpayers will get
no relief this year.

Party hearty but make sure you party safely


It's a party time of year
and nobody wants to be
the party-pooper who
reminds everyone that
drinking and driving don't
mix.
I'm happy to be the
designated messenger for
this party-season: drinking
and driving don't mix and
there are many ways to have
a great holiday party
without putting yourself or
your loved ones at risk.
Mothers Against Drunk
Driving offers tips for hosts
and party-goers to avoid
becoming statistics during
the holiday season.
You can find their "Have a
Ball, Baby!" safe party guide
at the MADDWeb site,
www.madd.org/programs.
If you still have doubts
about the dangers of
drinking and driving, and
still feel that the holiday
time is different, and you
can relax the rules, MADD
offers the following sobering
statistics:
In a recent year, 17,602
people were killed in
alcohol-related crashes,
which is an average of one
every 30 minutes
Alcohol-related deaths
account for nearly 41
percent of all traffic fatalities
Many more people are
seriously maimed and
injured in alcohol-related
accidents
If you are having a holiday
party, and this includes


ALIVE
& WELL
SHELLEY KOPPEL



barbeques and tailgate
parties, as well as traditional
holiday events, there are
things you need to know to
keep your party safe. This is
not only being a good,
responsible host. If you
serve liquor, you may be
liable for accidents caused
by your guests. It is the
responsibility of hosts to
make sure no one drinks
and drives, including taking
keys, calling cabs and
finding people who haven't
been drinking.
Guests have a responsibil-
ity, as well, to make plans in
advance for a designated
driver, taxi or alternate
means of transportation.
The following dos and
don't are taken from the
MADD Web site. For
information on volunteer-
ing or joining one of the 25
chapters in Florida, go to
www.madd.org./fl.
If you are the victim of a
drunk driver, you can call
the toll free hotline, (800)
772-6233.
Do:
Have a "bartender" who
can keep track of how much
someone is drinking. Never
allow drinks to be served to


minors. Remember that a 12
oz, can of beer, a 5 oz. glass
of wine, and an ounce and a
half of "hard" liquor contain
the same amount of alcohol.
Stay within your own
drinking limits so that you
can keep an eye on your
guests.
Offer non-alcoholic
alternatives, and if a guest is
drinking too much, offer to
freshen up the drink with a
non-alcoholic version.
Close the bar 90 minutes
before the party ends and
serve dessert and coffee.
Coffee will not sober
someone up; only time will
do that. It takes about an
hour to oxidize each drink.
Offer lots of high protein
foods cheese, deli meats
and shrimp so guests
don't drink on an empty
stomach.
Get your guests talking
or playing games. Have an
amateur fortune teller.
When people are busy, they
drink less.
If you're serving alco-
holic punch, use a non-
carbonated base such as
fruit juices. Alcohol is
absorbed more quickly into
the bloodstream with a
carbonated base.
Have a plan if a guest has
had too much to drink;
arrange a ride, call a taxi or
ask them to spend the night.
If you're a guest, you're
not off the hookl
Know your limits.


If you're with a group,
arrange in advance who will
be the designated driver.
Don't arrive on an empty
stomach and eat throughout
the evening. Remember that
salty snacks make you
thirsty; if you need some-
thing to quench your thirst,
choose a non-alcoholic
alternative.
Remember that you are
ultimately responsible for
your behavior. Don't put
your host on the spot by
drinking too much.
Have fun, have a great
holiday and don't let a lapse
in judgment and good sense
turn into a tragedy. That's
not how you want to
remember this holiday
season!

Downloading made simple


ne of the things I
often hear when I ask
a new user what they
want to learn about their
computer is, "I want to learn
how to download."
Of all the things people
can do with their machines,
downloading seems to be a
concept that's shrouded in
mystery.
We hear about it all the
time, "just go to www.what-
ever.com and download
your copy today." or "I just
downloaded an update to
my anti-virus software; my
machine should be well-
protected now."
What exactly do they
mean by downloading? How
come no one ever explains
it?
Well, it's one of those
concepts that, for the most
part, is 90 percent automat-
ic. That's why there isn't
much written about it for the
end user.
Let me explain. Whenever
you visit aWeb site, any
picture, sound, text, etc.,
displayed is stored on the
computer that hosts it.
When you access the Web
site, all of that stuff is
transferred from their
computer down to yours, so
it can be displayed. Since
this transfer is going from
theWeb site down to your
computer, the data is said to
be downloading.
So, basically, every time


COMPUTE
THIS
SEAN MCCARTHY


you access aWeb site, you
are automatically download-
ing lots of stuff.
The direction the data
flows is what makes the
difference between down-
loading and uploading.
Data that comes down
from the 'net to your
machine is considered
downloaded, while data that
leaves your computer and
goes up to the 'net is consid-
ered "uploaded."
When you send your mail,
the data goes from your
computer up to the mail
server; it's uploaded. When
you get your mail, it comes
down from the mail server;
it's downloaded.
Now when typical stuff is
downloaded from aWeb site,
it's usually displayed as
being downloaded (back in
the days of dialup, the
pictures would seem to
slowly form before your
eyes).
The confusion about
downloading comes from
those times when the file
you are trying to access is
something other than a file
that can be displayed as it
comes in. In these cases, you


have to save the file to disk
and then access the file
manually.
This isn't as complicated
as it may first seem. When
you encounter a file like that,
typically a "save as" dialogue
box opens and the computer
wants to know where on
your computer you want to
save the file.
This is logical; the
machine needs a place to
store it as it comes in. Save it
to the desktop or create a
folder specifically for it on
the hard drive but, regardless
of where you save it, you
need to note what folder it is
being saved in and what the
file is named. That way, after
the download is complete,
you can use that to navigate
to that folder and double-
click the newly downloaded
file.
The next thing that tends
to cause confusion is what
happens when you down-
load something that your
machine doesn't know how
to open. For instance, say
you just downloaded a .pdf
file but you have no .pdf
reader installed on your
computer.
When you go to open it,
the computer displays a
message asking you what
program to use! This can be
very intimidating if you don't
understand the message but
you know what? The
download worked fine!


The file did indeed
transfer from the internet
down to the computer, the
computer just doesn't know
what to do with it and is
relying on you to tell it what
program to use.
Not sure what program to
use? Here's a hint: take the
three-letter extension (in this
example .pdf) and search on
google for "what program
opens .pdf." Google will then
come up with a list of what
programs will open your file.
Another area of confusion
comes from things that
automatically downloaded,
things such as anti-virus or
Windows updates are often
downloaded in the back-
ground so there is usually
little (if anything) that you
have to do but, since
everyone knows how
important updates are,
people can get stuck trying
to figure out how to down-
load things that are already
taken care of.
The trick there is learning
how to verify automatic
downloads worked the way
they are supposed to have.
That's downloading in a
nutshell. Have a merry
Christmas and I hope this
helps!

Revolutionary hearing


aids come to Stuart


For Hometown News
News@hometownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY -
More than 60 years ago, in
1948, Ken Dahlberg started
a company that would go on
to revolutionize the hearing
aid industry.
Mr. Dahlberg, aWorldWar
II aviator turned electronic
inventor, created the "pillow
radio" for hospital patients
private listening. His
employer rejected the idea,
and this inspired the
founder of Dahlberg, Inc.,
which became the founda-
tion of Miracle-Ear.
Miracle-Ear has contin-
ued to introduce innovative
technology to remove the


barriers of hearing loss.
At their newest location,
2418 S.E. Federal Highway,
Stuart, in the Regency
Square Shopping Center,
Arthur L. Smith, a board
certified specialist, with
more than 38 years in the
hearing aid industry, brings
the Miracle Ear experience
locally.
Mr. Smith is able to cus-
tomize a hearing solution to
an individual hearing loss
profile with products that
are more discreet and com-
fortable than ever. He
understands how impor-
tant your hearing is.
Miracle Ear was invented
in 1955 by Mr. Dahlberg and
a team of dedicated scien-


tists. It was the smallest
hearing aid of the time. In
fact, it was the first hearing
aid to fit entirely in the ear,
without any cords or tubes.
Compared with the big
clunky hearing aids of that
generation, Miracle-Ear was
truly a marvel of technolo-
gy.
Since those early days,
Miracle-Ear Hearing Aids
have come a long, long way.
The digital hearing aids of
today are so far in superiori-
ty to what most people
think of when they say hear-
ing aid that they would have
to call them somewhat dif-
ferent.
For more information, call

Six deadly sins of car salesmen


Earl Stewart is the owner
and general manager ofEarl
Stewart Toyota in North
Palm Beach. The dealership
is located at 1215 N. Federal
Highway in Lake Park.

AM 960 which can be
streamed at www.seav-
iewAM960.com every
Saturday morning between
9 a.m. and 10a.m.
The internationally
renowned research
and polling company,
J.D. Power, conducts an
annual survey of U.S. car
buyers to learn what
motivates them to buy from
one particular car dealer
rather than another. Their
latest survey of 48,000
recent car buyers discov-
ered that there were six
reasons that people chose
not to buy from a car dealer.
Surprisingly, 49 percent of
people who buy cars buy
from the first dealership
they visit. This is a shocking


statistic to me because it
means that a lot of car
buyers are not getting
competitive prices from
several dealers. This means
they overpaid for their
vehicles.
Of the 51 percent of those
48,000 car buyers who
shopped more than one car
dealership before buying, 21
percent bought the same
make car from another
dealer than the first one
they visited for six reasons.
I've labeled these the six
deadly sins of car salesmen.
Thou shalt not be rude
to thy customer.
In schools for salespeople,
no matter what you're
selling, you'd think this
would be full explained.
How could a salesman
expect to make a sale after
insulting the prospective
customer? But, apparently it
happens often.
One of the most common


offenses is male chauvinist
car salesmen referring to
female customers as
"honey" or "sweetie pie"
and even telling them to go
home and come back with
their husbands.
Thou shalt not be
dishonest with thy cus-
tomer. Of course this
applies only to the salesmen
who are "caught' being
dishonest.
Thou shalt be knowl-
edgeable about thy product.
Today's automobile is a
highly complex, very
sophisticated computerized
machine. Buyers look to the
salesperson for answers to
their questions. A buyer
rightfully assumes that if the
salesman can't even show
me how the navigation
system works or tell me
what the city gas mileage is,
why she should believe he's
right about anything else he
has been telling her.
Thou shalt not pressure
thy customer.
Can you believe that car
salesmen still haven't
figured this one out yet?
Who likes to be pressured?

Stewart
From page A8

I often drive by car
dealerships and see a half
dozen or more sales people
gathered together in a
"pack," often smoking
cigarettes waiting for their
prey to drive onto the lot. I
wonder how many prospec-
tive car buyers just keep on
driving after drinking in
that fearful scene.
Thou shalt not ignore
thy customer.
My first reaction to this
one is how a salesman,
especially in such dire
economic times, could
afford to ignore anybody
that might be thinking
about buying a car. The
unfortunate answer is that a
lot of car salesmen think
they can tell just buy a
person's appearance if they
can afford to buy a car. Boy
is that stupid!
I know many wealthy
people who dress down
because they like the
comfort or because they
don't want to be seen as
having a lot of money. That
guy who walks into a car
showroom wearing a T-
shirt, flip flops and jeans
may well be able to buy the
whole dealership.
Thou shalt quote thy
customer a firm price.
You may find this hard to
believe, but this is true of 95
plus percent of car sales-
people. In fact, a lot of car
dealerships have a firm rule
never to give a prospective
customer a firm price
unless that customer will
buy now.
A salesman can be fired
for giving a customer a firm
price and letting that
customer leave the dealer-
ship. This is "old school"
but still common and it's
very insulting to the
customer.
When I ask other car
dealers why they continue
this practice, they ask me
"why should I give the
customer a firm price so
that he can go to my
competitor and let him beat
it by $100?"
What these car dealers
don't understand that this is
what the free marketplace
is all about: shopping and
comparing products and
prices so that you can make
the best buying decision. If
you deny your customer
this inherent right, he will
not buy from you. If you do
give the customer a firm
price, you show your trust
and often times that
customer will return to give
you a second chance to
meet a better price.
I wish all of my readers a
Merry Christmas or I hope
you already enjoyed a
happy Hanukah and I wish
everyone a happy New Year.

Agency projects near fruition


For Hometown News
News@hometownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY -
Dan Hudson, Stuart city
manager, announced
progress on three major
projects of the Community
Redevelopment Agency.
The areas noted were
Woodlawn Park improve-
ments, downtown pedes-
trian crosswalk enhance-
ments and Memorial Park
improvements.
The Florida Department
of Community Affairs offi-
cially approved funding for
the Woodlawn Park project
through a community
development block grant
funded by the American
Recovery and Reinvest-
ment Act, Mr. Hudson


said.
The $1 million project
includes lighting and land-
scaping, handicap accessi-
ble sidewalks and cross-
walks, on-street parking,
water and sewer line and
storm water management
improvements. Work
should begin immediately.
Next will be planned
crosswalk enhancements
to improve pedestrian
safety in the historic
downtown area.
Highlights of the project
include installing land-
scaped medians to pro-
vide natural traffic calm-
ing and adding
low-maintenance, flash-
ing, solar-powered light-
ing at pavement level.
Pending completion of


grant funding, the project
will begin in July 2010.
Mr. Hudson also dis-
cussed the finalized plans
for Memorial Park
improvements.
Community input led to
development of a three-
part project to include fes-
tival space and a perform-
ing arts amphitheatre, as
well as an enhanced Veter-
ans Memorial Plaza.
The Community Rede-
velopment Agency was
created in 1986 to elimi-
nate slum and blighted
conditions in its commu-
nities. It was re-estab-
lished and expanded in
1998 and 2002. The CRA is

the museum that day.
The festivities will begin
with a private tour of the
museum for alumni at
lla.m., followed immedi-
ately by a brunch in the
garden. At 2 p.m., Mr. Fish-
man will deliver his
address in the Leonhardt
Auditorium.
His award-winning work
has been exhibited
throughout the United
States, as well as in London


"It was very inspiring and
motivating to see all these
people coming out and vol-
unteering," Ms. Gonzalez
said. "The roof is almost
done, as far as the framing
work, and the boards are up
for one bedroom and a hall-
way. It's coming along pret-
ty quickly."
About four months after
she first contacted the non-
profit, the young mother
said she is in awe of the
positive change in her life.
Her daughter is excited
about helping plant the
garden, and Ms. Gonzalez is
set to work at least 300
hours on the construction.
"I enjoy doing it, even
though it's manual labor,
because it's my own house,"
she said.

TREASURE COAST--
Eighty-two Indian River
State College students were
recently recognized for their
academic achievement by
induction into the Nu Iota
Chapter of the Phi Theta
Kappa International Honor
Society.
The IRSC Phi Theta Kappa
chapter also won a Pinnacle
Award and two $45 member-
ship scholarships for increas-
ing membership by 10 per-
cent above last year.
During the ceremony, stu-
dents participated in the tra-
ditions of candle lighting (the
symbol of knowledge), taking
a white rose (symbolizing
intellectual friendship), recit-
ing the Phi Theta Kappa oath
of membership and signing
the membership book.
The keynote speaker, Ann
L. Decker, executive director


of the IRSC Foundation, com-
mended the newly inducted
members on their continuous
dedication to academic excel-
lence and shared the history
of Phi Theta Kappa, as well as
the impact the organization
will have on the future suc-
cesses of Indian River State
College.
These students have
achieved a 3.5 grade-point
average or higher while carry-
ing a full course load of 12
hours.
Phi Theta Kappa is an inter-
national honor society and
focuses on the recognition
and encouragement of aca-
demic achievement.
It is the largest honor socie-
ty in American higher educa-
tion with 1,100 chapters locat-
ed around the world and
more than 1.3 million mem-
bers since its founding in
1918.

MARTIN COUNTY The
Humance Society of the Trea-
sure Coast and the Children's
Museum of the Treasure
Coast have joined together in
an effort to increase pet adop-
tions.
Beginning Jan. 16, museum
visitors will have the opportu-
nity to adopt dogs, cats and
other animals at the museum.
Adoptions will take place the
third Saturday of each month.
Another component of the
partnership will be the
Humane Society's Paws to
Read and Lessons in Kindness
programs, which will be pre-
sented by HSTC at the muse-
um.
"One of the most impor-
tant things to me to is to part-
ner with other organizations
to educate the community,"
said Tammy Calabria, execu-
tive director for the Children's
Museum.
"It's important to teach pet
responsibility. When children


are having issues taking
responsibility for things, hav-
ing a pet teaches them. By
having adoptions taking place
at the museum, we can teach
children about the whole
adoption process, why there
are so many animals without
homes, the importance of
spaying and neutering and
how that affects the popula-
tion."
Frank Valente, HSTC presi-
dent and CEO is also excited
about the partnership.
"This is a win-win situation,
not just for both of our organi-
zations, but ultimately, the
public," said Mr.Valent.e
Since 1955, the Humane
Society of the Treasure Coast,
located at 4100 S.W. Leighton
Farm Ave. in Palm City, has
been the leading advocate for
animal welfare in the Martin
County area.
For more information, visit
www.hstcl.org or call (772)
223-8822. The museum is
located at 1707 N.E. Indian
River Drive in ensen Beach.

By Shelley Koppel
Entertainment writer
STUART When you call
singer/songwriter Ann
Hampton Callaway for a
scheduled interview at 10
a.m., she laughingly tells you
it's two hours before diva-
wake-up time.
In reality, the performer, a
proponent of the great
American songbook and
writer of the theme song for
the television show, "The
Nanny," is funny and down
to earth.
Ms. Callaway returns to
the Lyric Theatre on Jan. 2 as
part of the Ovation Concert
series and she spoke recent-
ly about working with Bar-
bra Streisand and why she
loves Stuart.
Ms. Callaway was nomi-
nated for a Tony for her role
in the Broadway musical
"Swing." She has performed
in tributes to Ella Fitzgerald,
Peggy Lee and Harold Arlen
at Carnegie Hall; with Wyn-
ton Marsalis and the Lincoln
Center Jazz Orchestra; and
with Keith Lockhart and the
Boston Pops. Still, singing
takes a good deal of courage.
"I think I'm always in the
world of song," she said. "A
good song has a beginning,
middle and end. There's
adventure in a great song
and to fully inhabit it, you
have to use your own experi-
ence and imagination in
front of hundreds or thou-
sands of people. It's a leap of
faith.
"I discovered we all have
so much in common. Music
is the great reminder. My

father passed away in June
and I'm one raw nerve. I
don't feel totally in control
and that's the best place for
an artist to be. When you
don't know what will hap-
pen, it's more real."
Ms. Callaway is a big fan of
the great American song-
book, songs made famous
by Harold Arlen, Johnny
Mercer, Richard Rodgers,
Cole Porter, Jerome Kern
and others.
"I happen to be a sort of
fool for beauty," she said.


"These songs are our
friends. We grew up with
them and they describe who
we are and what we felt in
timeless, fresh ways.
"When you have friends
like that, it's like the great
architecture of Europe. It
will be there forever. Our job
is to honor the songs and
find something personal
and fresh. It's a creative chal-
lenge I adore."
Barbra Streisand, who had
recorded a Callaway song,
asked the singer/songwriter


to take a Rolf Lovland
melody, entitled "Heart-
strings," and write a positive
love song.
"It was shocking because
she had given me a beautiful
melody and I was frustrated
with bad lyrics. I knew she
was getting married later
that year and I just sat down
and wrote a wedding song,
'I've Dreamed of You,' and
sent it. I was away and didn't
know the next day was the

STAR SCOPES

Week of 12-25-2009
Aries-March 21-April 19
You know what you want.
Stay centered on your
main goals. Listen closely.
You are in a very positive
energy pattern right now.
Find a little quality time
for yourself. Do a few deep
breathing exercises when
you first wake up. It's bet-
ter than drinking two cups
of coffee. Now you are
running on your own
steam. Good luck.

Taurus-April 20-May 20
Let go of the past and
move on. Don't expect
others to do things your
way without a commit-
ment. You can't rescue the
wounded. Stop trying.
Your place in this world is
to keep a steady pace,
move forward and live an
exciting, inspired, joy-filled
life. You have all this
potential. Make the best of
it. It's your destiny.

Gemini-May 21-June 21
You continue to shine in
wonderful ways. Why? You
listen to your inner guid-
ance. You move forward
when it feels right. Many
friends are proud of you.
Stay focused on your three
top priorities. Less impor-
tant things can wait. Keep
this plan going in 2010
and you will have the best
year of your life just
ahead.

Cancer-June 22-July 22
There is much more to life
than basic survival. All the
earthly pleasures will not
sustain you until you feed
your emotional and spiri-
tual needs first. Take it one
day at a time and trust
your very first impressions.
This is possible for you
because of your extra
large heart. You can do it.
Your personal happiness
depends on it.

Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
Recent successes have
motivated you to wanting
even more. Just be sure to
not take on too many
things at once. No reason
to get scattered now. You
know what feels right. It's
good to make a written
plan or agenda every day.
Be flexible but follow it
closely. It will move you
forward and insure suc-
cess.

Tea shop raises money for needy


For Hometown News
News@hometownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY -
King Charles Tea Shop and
Bakery recently held a pair
of fundraisers for House of
Hope that provided patrons
a chance to "party with a
purpose," and the festivities
will continue through Janu-
ary for one of the efforts.
Owners Sherrie and Gra-
ham Taylor-Jones organized
a reception on Nov. 14, in
which local artists donated
work to be sold for the bene-
fit of House of Hope.
That event raised $330
through the sale of several
pieces of art, including
paintings by Priscilla Eich-
ler, Dierdre Lawrence, Cyn-
thia Lay and Nancy Stein-
berg, photography by
Marshall Damon and jewel-


ry by Fern Eisenberg.
Artwork will remain on
display through January at
the King Charles, which also
features a full restaurant for
lunch and high tea.
The shop still has some
original paintings available
by local artists Georgia
Abood, Lillian Diebold,
Priscilla Eichler, Marion
Maloney, Jeannine Peltier
Snyder and Kendra Deltano.
There also are prints of
nature photography by Mr.
Damon and Matthew
McCafferty and a whimsical
hanging planter by Susan
Burgess.
Prices range from $15 to
$150, giving people a chance
to enjoy quality local art
while supporting a worthy
cause and enjoying a great
"cuppa" and delicious
British treats.

DINING & ENTERTAINMENT r,


Scopes
From page B1
Virgo-Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Continue to keep a lov-
ing, open heart during
the holidays and beyond.
It puts you closer to the
source and helps guide
your life toward positive
results. Do something
really personal and cre-
ative for your true love
and it will be fondly
remembered for all the
coming year. You will be
surprised how much will
come back to you.

Libra-Sept. 23-Oct. 22
The universe is going to
bless you with all the
energy you need to make
it safely through the holi-
days. Contact a few rela-
tives and friends you
haven't talked to in a
while. This spreads joy to
the world. Find a little
time to exercise, as well.
This will keep you in top
shape and raring to go
when the New Year rolls
around.

Scorpio-Oct. 23-Nov. 21
Give yourself a little extra
time during the holidays.
You work hard all year.
Let this be a present to
yourself. Take an invento-
ry of your life and make
new plans for next year. It
is a time for saving and
being resourceful. Clean
out the hallway closet.
You never know what you
will find; maybe some
hidden money.

Sagittarius-Nov 22-Dec. 21
Compassion and idealism
along with a keen sense
of humor best describes
your attitude toward life.
You have serious goals
and high regard for the
universal laws, but you
wish to enjoy yourself
while you work. Your
cheerful attitude inspires
others and makes them


feel good. This wonderful
gift is the rarest of treas-
ures.

Capricorn-Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Your time is becoming
more valuable. Stay close
to your positive inner cir-
cle. Then, take this new
energy and use it to man-
ifest your special proj-
ects. This plan will keep
you moving in the right
direction and please you
with the results. The uni-
verse blesses you
because you bless it with
"balance."

Aquarius-Jan. 20-Feb. 18
The focus you have been
giving to your main goals
is working. You are on a
positive roll. Your spirit is
strong. Your mind is clear
and your desire is great.
Much new learning is
coming soon. Continue
to release the past of old
habits, attitudes, events
and things that no longer
serve you. A higher level
is on the way.

Pisces-Feb. 19-March 20
Your home life is better
now than in a long time.
Why? Because you have
the courage to stand up
for your true beliefs. This
is the path of respect.
Continue on with this
natural high. This resur-
gence of your spirit and
truth will now spill over
in your professional and
social life. I predict a fine
year coming ahead for
you.

his Indian costume in a crowd in NY's Greenwich Village, and

for House of Hope 1 .


For Hometown News
News@hometownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY A
holiday sharing drive by the
Piper's Landing Women's
Golf Association will go a
long way toward helping
House of Hope families this
Christmas.
Two leaders of the associ-
ation, Debbie Lovequist and
Michelle Maguire, set up a
festive Thanksgiving tree in
the Piper's Landing club-
house. It was decorated with
tags that members could fill
out to provide a donation to
House of Hope.
The tree turned out to be a
big success, as the drive,
which lasted throughout
November, raised $3,135.
That will buy $25 Wal-Mart
gift cards for 125 selected


families so they can shop for
food, toys, clothing or
household items.
The Piper's Landing Yacht
& Country Club in Palm City
is a year-round supporter of
House of Hope.
Members are encouraged,
through the community's
newsletter and TV channel,
to give to House of Hope.
Boxes are set up in the lock-
er rooms to collect dona-
tions of food.
House of Hope board
member Elaine Matts is a
Piper's Landing resident and
chairwoman for the 11th
annual "Hearts for Hope"
fashion show, luncheon and
auction to benefit House of
Hope.
The event will be held
11:30 a.m. Feb. 12 at


Mariner Sands Country
Club in Stuart.
Piper's Landing also will
be the host of House of
Hope's 15th annual golf
Tournament of Hope on
April 23.
House of Hope is a non-
profit agency that provides
food, clothing, case man-
agement and emergency
financial assistance to Mar-
tin County people in need.
The agency is Martin
County's largest provider of
food to the hungry, and
serves as a safety net for
thousands of families, work-
ing people and senior citi-
zens who are struggling
through hard times.

It tis the season' for cold-weather


t maybe too cold for this
wimp, but the bluefish
and mackerels love this
weather. The surf settled
and the blues were close
enough to drive the baitfish
up on the sand.
Anglers were casting
spoons and cut bait for limit
catches. The best time has
been after sun up until sun
down. The interesting part
was that we had anglers in
who said there were no
bluefish, and then we had
anglers coming back for
more bait.
If the zone you are in is
quiet, move to the next
access and you will find
them. Lots of cars in the
parking area is a good clue.
These fish are up close, so
a long cast is not is not
necessary. Bring a 7-foot rod
and steel leaders, and catch
a fish.
There's been a good mix
of Spanish mackerels in


with the blues. A spoon or a
Mylar jig with a smaller
hook will find them for you.
There have been a few
pompano, but it's hard to
over look all the action the
bluefish offer.
The conditions have been
changing by the hour. Seas
have been 3-5 or 4-6 feet.
Depending on the size of
your boat, fishing up close
has been easy with the seas
building as you traveled
further out.
Finally, the big kings and
wahoo have made a good
show, but it is all about
conditions.
Trolled bally hoo has been
the bait, no live bait remem-


ber it is cold. Lots of
Spanish Mac's from the inlet
south, a hand full of glass
minnow chum and Mylar
Jigs will find them or try
trolling a small Clark Spoon
0-rbms, very effective.
I'm still waiting for the
pompano. There's a few, but
not the group we are use to.
Boaters have reported
them skipping and bridge
anglers are jigging up a few,
but we're still waiting for the
show.
Snook and trout season
are closed, so it is a given
any thing you cast will find
one. How do they know?
Red fish have kept most
anglers busy. With the over
cast days, schools have
stayed in the flats eating
three inch jerk baits and yes
that gold spoon works well.
Red fish have kept anglers
busy from Bear Point south
to Little Mud, the cove on
the north side of Nettles


Island and south all the way
to the inlet. In the mix has
been the pompano with a
really good bite going across
the Sailfish flats. Small jigs
with a piece of shrimp has
been the bait.
When crossing a area, if
you see them skipping shut
down and drift back, you
know where they are just be
patient and give them a
chance to settle down.
Black drum have been
busy at the bridge. There's a
few of all kinds, but for sure
the blues and mackerels are
there, so have a second
rigged and ready for them.

Teams receive grant from


national football program


For Hometown News
News@hometownnewsol.com
TREASURE COAST -
USA Football, the sport's
national governing body on
youth and amateur levels,
has recently awarded foot-
ball equipment grants to
two local youth leagues.
Treasure Coast Boys &
Girls Club in Fort Pierce and
the Boys & Girls Club of
Martin County received
grants on merit and need.
USA Football is awarding
$1 million in equipment
grants to more than 800
football programs across the
United States in preparation
for the 2010 season.
Each selected youth
league receives a $1,000
package that offers a variety
of football equipment and
uniform options to choose
from.
High schools receive simi-
lar packages valued at
$1,500. USA Football's grant


program has assisted youth
and high school football
teams since 2006, and is
responsible for awarding
more than $2 million worth
of football equipment. USA
Football equipment grants
are fulfilled by its national
partners Riddell and Under
Armour.
"Our equipment grant
program helps youth foot-
ball leagues and high school
programs continue to make
a positive impact in their
communities through
America's favorite sport,"
said Scott Hallenback, USA


Football executive director.
The independent non-
profit has members play-
ers, coaches, youth league
commissioners and game
officials in all 50 states.
More than 1.1 million high
school boys play football,
which more than doubles
the next-played sport by this
group.
USA Football's equipment
grant program is made pos-
sible through the NFL Youth
Football Fund, a nonprofit
foundation created by the
NFL and NFL Players Asso-
ciation in 1998.
