PALM BEACH COUNTY
- The dry season has
been just that: dry.
Lack of rainfall has
caused several lakes in the
areas under the jurisdic-
tion of the South Florida
Water Management Dis-
trict, which stretches from
Orange to Monroe coun-
ties, to be at record low
levels.
Lake Okeechobee has
especially been an area of
concern. The low level
there has led the district
to put modified phase III
restrictions into place
starting Jan. 15.
The modified restric-
tions mean that residents
can only water their lawns
once a week. Golf cours-
es, such as the Jack Nick-
laus-designed course at

PALM BEACH GARDENS
- After pulling more than
half of its public funds from a
state investment pool, the

its portfolio.
The city withdrew $21.3

month, fearing that its

City spends almost $500K on new vehicles
City Councilors debate the use of hybrids
BY IZZY KAPNICK
Staff writer
PALM BEACH GAR-
DENS The city of Palm
Beach Gardens plans to
buy $448,000 in new vehi-
cles this year.
At the final city council
meeting of 2007, Mike
Morrow, public works
director, announced the
city will purchase 21 vehi-
cles, including 12 new
police vehicles, three fire
department vehicles and
three vehicles for use by
the planning and zoning
department.
The police department
will bulk up its fleet with
the addition of five Ford
Crown Victoria patrol
cars, totaling $106,000
and six Dodge Chargers,
priced at $120,000. They
are also adding a Ford
Expedition priced at
$23,000.
"All of the (Chargers and
Crown Victorias) are going
to be used for patrol. As a
test, we ordered one
Charger last year. The fleet
guys said it ran really
well,"' said Lt. Glenn
Brown of the Gardens
Police Department.
"We believe the Charg-
ers will be quick enough
for, our needs and better
on gas than the Crown
Victorias," he added.
The lieutenant esti-
mates that the Gardens
fleet has approximately 70
cars, consisting of Charg-
ers, Impalas (including an
unmarked white sedan for
radar) and the unmistak-
able Crowns. He added
that none of the new cars
will be used for undercov-
er patrol.
"They'll all be black-
and-whites," he said.
As part of the city's
"going green" initiative,
the Fleet Committee,
which reviews the acquisi-
tion of all of the city's
vehicles, bought five
hybrid cars for the fire
department and planning
and zoning. The hybrid's

Ancestry is not just for adults
Library invites
children

BY SARAH STOVER

NORTH PALM BEACH
It's been said nuts do'
not fall far from the tree,
and now area children can
find out how true that
statement is for them.
The staff at the North
Palm Beach Public Library
is inviting children to a
take part in a new pro-
gram, Genealogy for Kids,
on Jan. 12.
Sue Holmes, technical
services manager at the
library, founded the
Treesearchers Genealogy
Club with her husband,
"To make it fun for kids you have to make it
interesting, so I'm going to trea it like a mys-
tery, because kids like to figure things out."
Sue Holmes
Treesearchers Geneaology Club co-founder
Walt, six years ago, after
she asked the reference
librarian at the time if res-
idents would possibly be
interested in researching
their family histories.
The reference librarian
suggested that Mrs.
Holmes start the club, and
it has been an adults-only
venture until recently. The
club currently has 25
active members and a few
of them asked if their chil-
dren or grandchildren
could come to the meet-
ings, which are held once
,a month, said Mrs.
Holmes, who began her
work at the library in the
children's department
eight years ago.
Mrs. Holmes thought it
was a wonderful idea,
especially since teachers
usually assign some sort
of family history project
in elementary school, she
said.
Genealogy for Kids will
be geared toward children
9 and older.
"I think it's a good age
to get children started in
it," said Mrs ; Holmes, who
started compiling her
family's history 10 years
a g o .. .. .
During Treesearchers
meetings, members listen
to guest speakers or
experts, participate in dis-
cussions and the Holmes'
occasionally give hand-
outs that help members
find more information.
At the initial Genealogy
for Kids meeting, Mrs.
Holmes will hold an
informative discussion on
where the childrens' fami-
lies came from, how they
got to the U.S. and give
them a list of questions
and resources to help
them get information, but
it will have a twist, she
said.

NORTH PALM BEACH -
Local philanthropist and

died on Dec. 23 at age 85.
Mrs. Pew and her hus-

the Pew Public Education

he said.

cy over an extended time

"We have done the eval-

responded.
"It's a feel-good thing to

favor of being green, but
we're using taxpayer
money here, and I really
don't think it's justified to

nice gesture, but I'm: not
happy about it."

the right direction.

coast Utility, Palm Beach
Gardens' water manage-
mentcompany.
When the city's demand
spikes, Seacoast draws
more water from the wells,
which causes the water
table to drop, especially in
areas near the wells.
This is common knowl-
edge to the city's water
managers, but to many res-
idents of Bent Tree Drive,
the fluctuating pond levels
and collapsing banks
remain an inexplicable
n u i s a n c e
"When people move in,
they usually .don't investi-
gate the regional hydrolo-
gy," said Rim Bishop, exec-
utive director at Seacoast
-Utility. "'They fldesetve' to
know that if they dig a lake,
the water level fluctuates
more in the area (near the
well fields). We insisted
that the developer advise
buyers that water levels
might fluctuate because of
the proximity (to the
wells)."
Mr. Calia visited the
Palm Beach Gardens City
Council last week in an
attempt to coax city-owned
Seacoast Utilities into
engaging in a dialogue to
start repairs to the pond.
"We've hired a hydrolo-
gist as an expert, who've
used Seacoast's own mod-
els to demonstrate that the
damage was, indeed,
caused by the excessive
draw-down (of well
water)," he said.
"During a review of Sea-
,coast's application for per-
mit renewal, the South
Florida Water Management
district's staff and council
agreed that Seacoast is
responsible for the damage
and should be responsible
for it's mitigation," Mr.
Calia added.
Mr. Bishop maintains
that while he's eager to
help, there's little the utility
company can do.
At Seacoast's insistence,
the developers included a
statement in ownership
documentation that
warned residents about the
fluctuating water levels,
asserting' that Seacoast
can't be held responsible
for periodic shifts in the
water table.
In order to restore stabil-
ity to the lake, a crew
would have to reconstruct
the original slope by
pulling up the soil and
installing a shelf made of
underwater plants to
reduce the risk of erosion.
According to Ron Ferris,
vice, chairman at Seacoast,
Bent Tree has asked for
$160,000 in reparations for
these repairs.
As a response, the com-
pany hired hydrologists at
the engineering firm
Arcadis. They found that
since the damage is on one
side of the lake, the well-
water draw-down did not
cause the erosion.
Mr. Calia said he believes
the Arcadis report to be
"fallacious."
"The whole matter is in
the attorney's hands. It
looks like it's going to end
up in litigation," said Mr.
Ferris.

PGA National Resort certified 'green'
Management at PGA National Resort is acknowledging
the need for environmental conservation.
Last week, hotel officials announced they will partici-
pate in the Florida Department of Environmental Pro-
tection's Green Lodging Program.
To meet the criteria for certification, PGA National's
hotel installed energy-saving appliances and low-flow
plumbing.fixtures to save water.
Management also pledged to provide recycling oppor-
tunities and purchase hotel supplies made of recycled
materials in bulk.
"Our entire staff and management team is committed
to environmental conservation," said managing director
Joel Paige in a press release.
The PGA National Resort is the third hotel in Palm
Beach County to attain the "green lodging" certification.
The program began in 2004, and since has recognized
66 hotels across Florida for their efforts to reduce unnec-
essary use of water and electricity. As a reward for the
designation, the state recommends the hotel or motel to
environmentally-conscious companies seeking lodging
in the area.
The criteria for certification are fairly basic, aimed at
reducing unnecessary expenditure of resources without
interfering with customary hotel operations. However,
Gov. Charlie Christ signed an executive order that
requires state agencies to seek lodging only at "green-
certified" hotels when possible.
According to the FDEP, this represented a "bold first
step" for the industry's conservational efforts.
Holiday DUI checkpoint halts drivers
On NewYear's Eve, Palm Beach Gardens Police set up a
sobriety checkpoint on the southbound lanes of Alter-
nate A1A and PGA Boulevard.
From 11 p.m. to 1 a.m., unsuspecting partygoers
siphoned into the intersection, and those who had a few
too many drinks going to or coming from their respec-
tive NewYear's bashes were stopped.
When asked if officers tend to be more lenient at the
checkpoints, attorney and DUI specialist Michael Cohen
recounted his experience.
"My finding is that (the officers) are 100 percent more
strict. The whole point of these checkpoints is to arrest.
you. Even if you've had one drink, they subject you to
these (sobriety) tests, which are designed for failure," he
said. "Most of the arrests are found to be invalid because
the drivers are not being stopped for a legitimate rea-
son." Mr. Cohen practices law at Essen, Essen, Susaneck,
and Cohen in West Palm Beach.
According to Florida's 2007 highway safety budget, the
Palm Beach Gardens Police Department receives $18,000

water usage almost in half.
Once a week may not
seem like enough, espe-
cially in Florida, but dur-
ing the dry season, home-
owners should not need to
water their lawns more
than that, and if it rains,
they should not have to do
it all, said Jesus Rodriguez,
a public information offi-
cer for the SFWMD.
"People tend to grossly
over water their lawns," he
said.
Over the course of an
average year, residents
should not water their
lawns more than 15 to 20
times because Mother
Nature will take care of the
rest, he said.
However, Mother Nature
has not taken care of her
child, Earth, this year.
"We've got water levels
across the district that
we've never seen before,"
said Mr. Rodriguez.
SFWMD follows a regu-
lation schedule put forth
by the Army Corp of Engi-
neers, and lakes and water
conservations areas are
below regulation levels, he
said.
Lake Okeechobee is
about 2 feet below where it
should be and 5 feet below
historic levels for this time
of year, said Mr. Rodriguez.
. In Palm Beach, Broward
and Miami, the problem is
the areas are built out so
much there's no water
storage, so water from
-lakes and canals is what
residents use, said Mr.
Rodriguez.
Having no storage has
played into the call for
restrictions.
"It's a decision to try and
stretch the supply we
already have because we
don't have a back-up or a
back-up to our back-up,"
said Mr. Rodriguez.
Even water conservation
areas to the west, such as
the Loxahatchee National
Wildlife Refugee, are all
well below their prescribed
elevations, he added.
The supply will most
likely need to be stretched
until May, which marks the
end of the dry season.
If conditions do not
improve, the restrictions
may possibly get tighter,
said Mr. Rodriguez.
A full phase III includes
restricted water use for
washing cars and boats
and other recreational
activities, as well as pres-
sure cleaning. The district
started with lawn water-
ing, since it's an area
where reduced use can
have a significant impact.
"(Landscape irrigation)
is by far the single largest
water usage category," said
Mr. Rodriguez. "As much as
50 percent of each house-
hold's potable (drinking)
water winds up on their
lawns,"
As an example of how
much water is used for irri-
gation purposes alone, Jeff

Natal, town manager of
Juno Beach said the town
uses 106,000 gallons per
year. The town also has
unmetered wells, he said.
Residents and business-
es in Palm Beach, Okee-
chobee, St. Lucie, Martin,
Broward, Miami-Dade,
Monroe, Hendry and
Glades counties will have
two "watering windows"
starting in mid-January.
Odd-numbered street
addresses can water lawns
on Mondays between 4
and 8 a.m. or 4 and 8 p.m.
Even-numbered street
addresses take their turn
during the same hours on
Thursdays.
Although the start date
was arbitrarily chosen, the
days and times for the
addresses have been
worked out for years as
part of the district's com-
prehensive water shortage
plan. The plan was derived
from conversations with
stakeholders, such as
nurseries and utilities.
For instance, utilities
officials were concerned
about usage during peak
times, and the possibility
that if everyone was water-
ing their Idwns between
four and eight on a given
day and there was a fire,
there would not be enough
water to fight the fire with,
said Mr. Rodriguez.
Another aspect of the
comprehensive plan
allows for extra watering
time for new lawns and
landscaping when modi-
fied phase III restrictions
are in place.
"It's a perfect example of
working with nurseries,
because how are people
going to sell plants if resi-
dents can only water them
one day a week?" asked Mr.
Rodriguez.
"We don't want to dis-
courage anyone from buy-
ing new plants," he added.
Residents who have new
installations can water up
to six days a week. If the
new installations have
been in place for 30 days
or less, and the area is less
than 5 acres, they can
water every day except Fri-
day between 2 and 8 a.m.
If it's more than 5 acres,
they can start watering at
midnight.
Installations that were
put in between 31 and 60
days beforehand can be
watered Monday, Wednes-
day, Thursday and Satur-
day with the same hours as
above.
"Code enforcement offi-
cers will be out looking for
people breaking restric-
tions, so people with new
installations should be
ready to show the docu-
mentation that the land-
scaping is new if need be,"
said Mr. Rodriguez.
Municipalities' code
enforcement units will be
in charge of fining resi-
dents who do not comply,
he said.
Residents in Juno Beach
will be given one warning
before receiving a citation
for noncompliance, said
Mr. Naftal.
As for businesses, such
as golf courses, that hold
permits from the SFWMD,
they answer to the district.
Golf courses have been
given an allotted water
usage per month, which
varies at each course. The
modified phase III restric-
tions calls for all golf
courses in the affected
areas to decrease their
usage by 45 percent.
"That really is a substan-
tial cutback if your busi-
ness is about keeping the
lawn green," said Mr.
Rodriguez.
It's especially substantial
for the course at the North
Palm Beach Country Club
because its reduction is
actually more than 45 per-
cent, based on a scale on
the district's Web site
regarding soil type and
other factors, said village
manager Jimmy Knight.
The course currently
uses any where between
400,000 and 700,000 gal-
lons a day, and will have to
cut back to about 57,000
gallons a day, he said.
. Since the courses are
permitted by the SFWMD,
their staffs have to report
water usage on a weekly
basis. At the end of the
month the district tallies
the reports to make sure
they are complying, said
Mr. Rodriguez.
In North Palm Beach's
case, the maintenance of
the country club was out-
sourced to International
Golf Maintenance based in
Champions Gate, Fla., in
October, so IGM will have
to observe the course's
water use, said Mr. Knight.
It can be rather expen-
sive for courses that do not
follow the restrictions.
Municipalities charge
fines ranging between $25
and $125 for people who
do not comply. Since the
golf courses are the permit
holders, the state allows
the district to seek up to
$10,000 per offense, per
day, said Mr. Rodriguez.
The only residents or
businesses somewhat off
the hook for the time being
are those that use 100 per-
cent reclaimed water,
which is recycled waste
water that has been highly
treated. This kind of water
is predominatelyl used' by
golf courses, said Mr.
Rodriguez.
Courses or neighbor-
hoods that use reclaimed
water, such as the Semi-
nole Golf Course, Sea Oats
and Oak Harbour in Juno
Beach, do not have to fol-
low the restrictions.
However, even these res-
idents and busiriesses
should not get out of hand
with their use.
Others living in areas
where the restrictions
apply should also try to
conserve water by only
running their dishwashers
and washing machines if
they have a full load, said
Mr. Rodriguez.
"I think part of the mes-
sage (of the restrictions) is
to use your water wisely,"
he said.

Where's the justice?
I am a 44-year-old woman who was married for 20
years to a man who abused me in every which way pos-
sible.
Due to my Catholic upbringing, I stayed in the mar-
riage "for better or for worse," and because I had three
sons, whom I thought I would harm if I got a divorce.
One day, I woke up and realized that I did not want to
spend the rest of my life with this horrible man and I
wanted to be free of the misery. I also did not want my
sons to follow the example their father was setting when
it came to women, so I filed for divorce in April 2006.
My husband and I never got along, and I knew that I
shouldn't have married him, but I went through with it.
If I had known then what I know now, I would never have
married him.
The best thing, of course, that came out of my mar-
riage are my three sons who are the loves of my. life.
Through the years, we discussed divorce and child
support, and he always said, "I would rather go to jail
than pay child support." My ex is a foreigner who has
been in this country for approximately 35 years.
He always was in the restaurant business, and I always
worked for attorneys. My ex was always paid in cash, so
his earnings were never provable. It was his dream to
open an Italian deli, and honestly, I was afraid to take
the chance, because opening a new business is always
risky. But I finally said OK, because I figured that would
make him happy and if he was happy, we all were happy.
The deli opened in 2001, with an increase of revenue
every year. Of course, again, being the type of business
this is, there is cash that can be easily hidden and not
easy to prove.
We went to trial this fall because we couldn't resolve
any issues because he didn't want to pay me child sup-
port, plain and simple.
He took the stand and portrayed himself as a poor
immigrant with a third-grade education, and the judge
awarded him alimony, even though I have the three chil-
dren living with me, feed them, clothe them, take care of
their every need, etc.
He contributes nothing. Now, I have been ordered to
pay him alimony, even though my financial affidavit
shows that I am in the red every month by at least
$1,000, and I use credit cards to take care of the deficit.
Additionally, my ex now lives with an immigrant with
her three children, whom he supports, although he
claims she helps with the rent, but I seriously doubt her
income is more than minimum wage. Now, basically, I
have to take away from my children, to give to another
woman and her three children.
My ex' s famous quote, "Only in American can things
like this happen." Well, it looks like he benefited after all
from living in this country.
So would you please tell me, where's the justice?
Lighten up, please
I don't usually get upset about the lunacy that has
been going on in this country for the past few years, but
this is beyond lunacy. We, in this country, and in many
places around the world, have been wishing each other a
"Merry Christmas" for eons. It is a social gesture and a
greeting of goodwill. It has almost become generic at
this time of the year.
How can you possibly be offended when someone
takes'the time to wish you a "Merry Christmas" and in
doing so is wishing you goodwill? .If you don't celebrate
the holiday of Christmas, then greet them back with
whatever it is that you do celebrate. This is supposed to,
be a country where we have freedom.
I can say Merry Christmas and you can say "happy
whatever," and no one should be offended. It is not only,
Christians who celebrate Christmas, but anyone who-
considers this time of the year a joyous occasion and a,
time to pass on feelings of goodwill and happiness.
People need to lighten up and be less abusive and
intolerant of those around them.
Enjoy the holidays and celebrate whatever it is you:
celebrate and let others do the same before your antics
cause us to lose the freedoms we so cherish in this coun-
try.
Everything is 'made in China'
With all of the items being recalled from China, you
can't be too safe. Since most of the items in the media
are children's toys, and my children are all grown and on
their own, I should double-check all the items that I buy
for my other children (chihuahuas).
I was in for a great surprise as my husband and I went
from store to store and almost everything was stamped
with made in China.
From dog treats to dog toys, you are highly unlikely to
find more than one item in each store that isn't made in
China. After even asking for assistance from store clerks,
we found that they were as surprised as we were that the
items for our four-legged loved ones aren't American
made either.
What a wake-up call for an American who lives in the
U.S. not to be able to purchase American-made prod-
ucts. I've never been so disappointed, to not find more
than one item for our doggies that wasn't made in China.
Turn down the background music
I am getting to the point of no return when it comes to
listening to almost every program on TV. For some rea-
son, they all seem to have their background music tuned
up so high that most times you can't even hear what the
main characters in the movies have to say.
The old-time movies rarely if ever had this problem,
and never had did it interfere with what the actors were
saying. Are the musicians so hard-of-hearing that they
can't hear how loud it is, or am I' the oddball when it
comes to loud music?
Let's talk about the AMT
One rather major political item didn't get much play in
the mainstream news this past week.
Congress passed a bill reforming the alternative mini-
mum tax. This measure had been enacted years ago to
make it more likely that very wealthy taxpayers would
not escape paying taxes by way of various deductions
and loopholes. Reform to that law was needed, as infla,
tion had the AMT imposing substantially more taxes on
the middles class.
Reform of the AMT had only one issue: how to deal
with the shortfall in revenue it would cause; $50 billion.
The Democrats proposed a solution: remove the loop-
hole that allows hedge fund managers to pay taxes on
virtually all their earnings at the 15 percent capital gains
rate.
These ultra-wealthy managers have designed the com-
pensation for their services, so they are considered par-
ticipants in the funds by investing not capital, but their
services.
Normally, their compensation would be taxed at the
much higher ordinary income rates that the rest of us
pay. There aren't many of these managers, but their pay
is so high (many are paid in the billions) this tradeoff
would work.
This seemed like a win-win. Middle class taxpayers get
the break they need and it is paid for in fairness, and
aimed at the very people the AMT was meant to affect.
Without paying for removing the tax on the middle class,
the debt that has the U.S. borrowing $1 billion per week
from China would explode further.
One problem. The Republicans, including the presi-
dent, were unwilling to remove the loophole for their
6super-wealthy friends. ..
Because of filibustering in the Senate and the threat of
veto from the White -House, we now have AMT reform,,
but the perfect way to pay for it is gone and we are bur-
dened with more debt.
When I was growing, up I remember asking my father
what Dembcr4s stood for (we were Democrats). He told
me Democrats tried to help ordinary working people.
I asked him what, Republicans stood for. He told me
they tried to make the rich richer and the poor poorer. I
thought that was a terribly mean thing to say about a
group of people and could not possibly be true.
I am now 55. Whether it is the issue of taxes, the mini-,
mum wage, workers rights, trade union legislation or
seeking cheaper labor overseas, I have never found a bit
of evidence indicating my father was wrong.
Respect everyone's religious beliefs
Our country was founded on the belief of religious
freedom, not Christian beliefs.
There is a difference.
Jews and Muslims and athiests and agnostics need not
go anywhere. We are where we belong.
Bible-thumping Christians need to look in the mirror
and reflect on their very hurtful comments. This country
is not a Christian country. It is a country where respect
and religious freedom are afforded to all law-abiding cit-
izens.
Casinos would bring big bucks to Florida
I'm writing this in response to the person who wrote
"Florida should get into the gambling business." I agree
with you 100 percent.
Florida is missing out'on a golden opportunity here.
We should open up two or three gambling zones here in
Florida, one in south Florida, one in central Florida and
one in northern Florida. There's little doubt the industry
would flourish here.
However, I don't agree that it should be run by the state.
Casinos should be run by private companies, just as
they are in Atlantic City and Las Vegas. Just as in Vegas
though, they should be taxed heavily, with the proceeds
being used to offset and/or eliminate our currently out-
of-control property tax burden and to fund education, as
well.
Think about it.
Vegas is a popular destination, even though it's a city in
the middle of the desert. Florida has a whole heck of a lot
more to offer than the desert. It's a destination in and of
itself.
Throw in true Vegas-style gambling with the world-
class resorts and recreation we currently have, and sud-
denly Florida becomes the destination of all destinations.
The economy would boom, residents would be relieved
of their heavy tax burdens and plenty of needed mid-level
jobs would be born.
I believe it's something our top brass should seriously
consider. I've written in to Gov. (Charlie) Crist's office on
the subject multiple times over the last year, but have yet
to receive a response. My only hope is he and his staff are
too busy too respond, but that they are listening, and lis-
tening intently, as I believe this could be the answer to
many of the financial problems plaguing Florida at the
moment.
Quit blowing the grass into the water
How do the lawn services get away with blowing all the
cut grass and other landscaping into the surrounding
waterways?
Isn't there a law against this? And when the waterways
become non-navigable because of this build up, will the
landscapers pay?
Sad about loss of dog
Our family dog was mauled to death by two pit bulls while
my 10 year old walked her on a leash.
These two dogs came up behind my son as he was walking
down our street, and .they proceeded to kill our dog as my
son screamed for help.
Animal control came out and put them down. I would just
like to make sure that this story is going to be told. This was
the fourth situation with these sa ie dogs, and meanwhile,.
my son is traumatized and our familydog, who was a 1-year-
old shitzu-yorkie mix, had no chance.
Vick should get more
The article in the rants and raves titled "This sentence
should open eyes" was a great article. It stated that Michael
Vick got 23 months for pit bull fighting and how he should
have got more. It said that we need more judges who would
give harsh sentences.
I couldn't agree more. We must do things to protect our
animals. I believe in an eye for an eye. We should have some
public executions or electrocutions to the people who do
cruelty to animals. I'd be honored to pull the switch on any-
one who hurts animals. I'd be happy to hang Michael Vick.
I'd run up to anyone who was hurting an animal and have a
long harsh talk with them and would probably take their
animal away.

Funds
From page Al
mately 54 percent of munic-
ipal assets.
At the last city council
meeting, financial adminis-
trator Allan Owens outlined
possible targets for new
investments.
For "short-term operating
funds," Mr. Owens suggest-
ed the city distribute its
assets into two Wachovia
money market funds: a
treasury money market
fund, which invests only in
short-term U.S. Treasury
securities, and a U.S. gov-
ernment money market,
which invests in other gov-
ernment agency bonds and
notes.
Treasury securities are
government bonds issued
by the U.S. Department of
Treasury to finance debt.
According to Mr. Owen, they
represent one of the most
secure short-term invest-
ments.
At the time of the council
meeting, Wachovia's treas-
ury money market yielded
3.88 percent per annum,
while the U.S. government
money market yielded 4.4
percent. Both are AAA-rated
by Standard and Poors,
which prov ies financial
intelligence on investments.
Mr. Qwen suggested that
for long-term investment,
the city consider the Florida
League of Cities pool. Like
the SBA pool, the FLC fund
was designed to allow
municipal governments to,
combine their resources to
gather interest in a secure
trust. It differs from the SBA
pool in that the FLC invests
exclusively in securities
guaranteed by the govern-
ment or government agen-
cies.
"These portfolios do not
invest in securities backed
by sub-prime mortgages,
which is what got the SBA
into trouble," Mr. Owens
added.
The FLC pools city funds
through the Florida Munici-
pal Investment Program.
Unlike the SBA, it's moni-
tored closely by rating com-
panies and its portfolio is
subject to a monthly review.
Fitch Ratings gave the Flori-
da Investment Program its
highest AAA score based on
the portfolio's strength and
liability.
According to Dustin
Heines of the FLC, the
league's board of trustees
consists mostly of city offi-
cials, meaning that the fund
is closely monitored by the
local governments whose
money is pooled.
"(The FLC) was created
by cities, with the intent of
offering high-quality invest-
ments. The board of trustees
(is made up of).elected offi-
cials, mayors and council
members. They're required
to pass any changes in the
investment trust," said Mr.
Heines.
The FLC's intermediate
bond fund yielded 4.85 per-
cent last year, according to
Mr. Owens.
While the finance admin-
istrator's presentation high-
lighted several strengths .of
the FLC when set against the
SBA's portfolio, Mr. Heines
conceded that the league

does charge a significantly
higher administrative fee.
The FLC applies a .23 per-
cent charge of total funds,
compared to the SBA's .02
percent. If the city.were to
invest half of its funds in the
FLC, the difference in fees
would be relatively insignifi-
cant (about $22,000 out of
$10.65 million).
After hearing Mr. Owens'
suggestions, the council
held off on making any final
decisions, but they did
amend the city's investment
policy to allow for the new
investments. The resolution
to amend the policy passed
5-0.
"I want to stress that these
are just options. We're not
obligating ourselves in any
way to deposit a specified
dollar amount into either
one of these funds," said Mr.
Owen. "Again, the point is to
try to diversify, give our-
selves more options.
* "All of our funds are in one
place, in one bank, right
now. I don't think it's very
prudent," he said.

Innovative Designer Creates Home Butterfly Gardens
Debbie Lee Ridge, Designer 561-779-0030
www.earthwindandflowers@gmail.com
Butterflies have long held a mystical place in myths and legend. Psyche's symbol, for
example, is the butterfly, a delicate reminder of her transformation from mere human
to magical immortal. What better way to transform your own life and living space than
with a beautiful, custom-designed butterfly garden, right in your own home?
Debbie Lee Ridge is an artist who creates garden masterpieces, Ridge utilizes native
flowers, shrubs, plants, vines, herbs, fountains and even live lady bugs, for natural
pest control to design a restful and restorative oasis in a client's backyard or by a
sparkling pool. "Just about any yard has a place for a butterfly garden," she said. Or, if
living space is limited, a butterfly garden can be created in beautiful pots. Ridge also
uses unique and decorative pots to create gardens inside and out, integrating design
that complements and enhances architecture.

Editor's note: This column
appeared in the June 16,
2006 edition.
f you have read my
earlier columns, you
know how important it
is to get several competitive
prices from different car
dealers on the car you are
buying.
Equally important is to
get at least three prices/bids
on your financing and the
true value of your trade-in.
The absolute worst thing
you can do is to tell the
dealer "all I care about is
keeping my payments
under $X per month" and
not know the interest rate,
terms or products included
in the payments.
have the lowest finance
rates. Even if you don't
belong to a credit union,
there are several you can
join for a nominal fee. You
should also get a financing
quote from the bank you do
business with.
Also, give the dealer that
you are buying from an
opportunity to beat the
rates you were quoted.
Sometimes he can.
When you are taking
delivery of your car, you will
be asked to consider buying
products, such as extended
warranties, maintenance
plans, road hazard insur-
ance, GAP insurance,
roadside assistance, credit
life insurance, etc.
My suggestion is that you :
not make snap decisions on
these products'at the last
minute. You should get
complete information on
each product and deter-
mine if it has value for you.
You may have coverage for
some insurance products in
policies you already own.
With extended warranties
and maintenance, be sure
you understand what is
Local Agent Guarantees Home
Sale in Tough Florida Real Estate
Market
What if, when you
listed your home for
sale, you could receive
a guarantee from. the
Realtor that your home
would be sold? In this
real estate market where
so many homes are
,languishing with "for
S.ale" signson the lawn,
some for riore than two'
years, Liz Bacall at
J;eller' Williams has a
program to get homes
sold fast and for top
"dollar.,
e i.When I lIist a home,
I o ffer the'Sellers
guarantee that, if their,
home does not sell, I
will buy it," Bacall said.
Isttiive to be the'kind of
Realtor I would want if
I were selling and buying"
a home."
But guaranteeing, the
sale of a house? "Yes,'"
said Bacall, "Because it
enables people to get on
with their lives."
We all know how it
works when' we'want to
buy our next home, but
the old onehas no, sold.
Even though we make an
offer, if another iBuyer
comes along who has no
contingency, we lose. '
Bacall guarantees the
sale of the home so
that the Seller has a
solid offer to purchase
their next home. This
Guaranteed Sale Program
works for new construc-
tion home purchases, too.
Builders can refer their
new home, .buyers to
Baall for her to ist- and
guar;antee', tih te bl of
their old home, and the
sale can be completed
on time.
"I follow, the Realtor
Code pf Ethics, so if a
Seller has their home
listed with another agent,
it is not ethical for me to
talk with them," Bacall
states. "However, if
someone's listing has
expired and the home is
no longer on the market,
then :I; .can .work with g
them .. . ..
'Whether they, are re-
",listing'b tr listing' forr the
first time, I'm delighted
to offer my services to
anyone who is serious
about selling their home."
Information about Bacall's
program is available 24-
hours a day at both a hot-
line and a website. Go to

PAID ADVERTORIAL
covered and what is not
covered and what the
deductibles are.
You should get at least
three bids on the value of
your trade-in. You can get
some prettygood guidance
from Kelly Bluebook,
www.kbb.com and
www.edmunds.com. Make
an appointment to drive
your trade-in to show the
used car manager at a ,
dealer that is franchised to
sell the make you own.
A Chevrolet dealer will
likely pay you more for a .
Chevrolet trade-in than a
Ford dealer. That's because
people generally will shop
for a used Chevy from a
Chevrolet dealer. Get one or
two more bids from other
dealers in the same make. If
you are near a CarMax store,
you should take your car
there, too. They regularly
buy cars like this for their
inventory. The price you will
be quoted is referred to as
the ACV, which stands for
"actual cash value." This is
the wholesale value of your
trade in.
Don't confuse the ACV
with the trade-in allowance
that the dealer you are
buying from gives you.
The trade-in allowance
includes part of the markup
on the vehicle you are
purchasing. Ytouhave
probably read ads saying
"Minimum $4,000
allowance on all trades."
It's hot hard:.to Offer '
thousands more on a trade-
in than its ACV (true
Wholesale value) when you
mark up the new car several
thousand dollars more. Be
sure that you explain that
want to compare theACV of
your trade-in. Tell them you
want the markup on the
price of the car you are
buying discounted, not
' added-On tothe'ACVofyour
trade. / ..
Remember, however, that
if you sell your trade-in to
another party, you lose the
advantage of deducting the
trade-in from the price your
sales tax is calculated on. At
6 percent, you would pay an
extra $600 in sales tax for a
trade-in with a $10,000 ACV
With competitive bids on
the car you are buying, the
interest rate on your
financing and your trade-in
ACV you are sure to mini-
mize the total cost of that
new otiused car.

JUPITER The man
who caused an uproar in
the 1950s for swiveling his
hips would have turned 73

Elvis Presley, also known
as "The King of Rock 'n'
Roll," died from heart fail-
ure, which resulted from
overdosing on prescrip-

1977. But he lives on in the

image-wise. I don't call
myself an impersonator
because most of them are
over-the-top. My show's a
little classier. The way I do
the show, it's a tribute. Dur-
ing the show I never say I'm
Elvis.
I have a lot of people
come up and say, "we didn't
know what to expect,. but
you do an honor to Elvis'
music and his memory,"
and that's a good thing. I'd
rather remind them of Elvis
and still be me rather than a
carbon copy.
Q: Describe your show.
A: I actually do a story of
the career. We've got a full
production band, horn sec-
tion, back-up singers and a
couple of girl dancers. I wear
similar clothing for the eras,
like for the early '50s music
like "Blue Suede Shoes" and
"All Shook Up" and that kind
of stuff.
We also do some of the
songs from the movies, such
as "Return to Sender" from
"Blue Hawaii." Then we
move into the black leather,
which was from a special
with Elvis back in 1968 after
the movies and people
weren't sure if he could still
rock and roll and "be Elvis."
We also do the white-fringe,
early 1970s stuff when he
was still lean and looked
good, songs like "Suspicious
Minds" and "Burnin' Love." I
try to present him at his
best.
I also talk about the histo-
ry of the music. For
instance, when we're doing
"Heartbreak Hotel" I say
that they used to cut Elvis off
at the waist when they
filmed the "Ed Sullivan
Show," because they felt he
was moving too much.
Q: What are some of your
favorite Elvis movies and
songs?
A: Movie-wise, one of the
earlier ones, which was kind
of a silly one, called "Girl
Happy." It's a fun movie and
some parts were filmed in
Fort Lauderdale (where Mr.
MacDonald is from). (I also
like) "Jailhouse Rock" and
"King Creole."
Music-wise it's hard to
pick. He recorded more than
300 songs. One of my
favorites is a lot of peoples'
favorites: "Can't Help Falling
in Love." That was a beauti-
ful song.
Q: With so many songs,
do you know all of them if
there's a request?
A: No. Of course, people
love the music from the '50s
and '60s, but I do have peo-
ple (at the shows) come up
with requests for obscure
songs from the movies or
ones he did in concert.
There are a few songs I
don't think Elvis wanted to
remember (laughs). One of
them that comes to mind is
"Yoga is as Yoga Does." I
know the title, but I didn't
learn it (chuckles).
Q: According to your Web
site, you are the only tribute
artist who has been asked
by Elvis Presley Enterprises
to perform at Graceland's
Heartbreak Hotel. What was
that experience like?
A: I've done (Las) Vegas,
been in the Legends show
and I've gone all over the
place with the show, but that
is the greatest honor. Being
asked to do it for six years to
me just proves the enter-
tainment value (of my
show).
It's amazing to see how
many people come from all
over the place. It just proves
that Elvis is part of our pop
culture. '
(Mr. MacDonald per-
formed at Graceland from
2000-06 in January, which is
Elvis' birthday month and
August, which is his memo-
rial. He will be back in Mem-
phis, Tenn., this August for
the memorial.)
Q: Have you, ever met
Priscilla (Elvis' ex-wife) or
Lisa Marie (his only child)?
A: I've never met them.
I've been near them and I've
seen them, but they stay
away from that kind of stuff.
I have met Elvis' stepbrother
and I have worked with D.J.
Fontana and the Jor-
danaires, his original back-
upband.
. ;: .. . ,,:
Q: Are there any anec-
dotes you want to share
from your experiences in
Memphis?
A: I had an interesting
thing happen when I was
setting up for a show at the
Peabody Hotel in downtown
Memphis.
I was doing a sound
check, and this nice looking
older lady came up to me
while I was singing "Can't
Help Falling in Love" and
asked me if I was lip-synch-
ing. I said no, I'm singing, I
have a show here later, and
she goes, "I thought you
were lip-synching. That's
amazing and I should know,
I was his mother-in-law."
She was Priscilla's step-
mother. I verified it with the
office, arid she was staying
at the Peabody Hotel.
Q: I imagine you've
toured Graceland (the 13.8-
acre estate where Elvis lived
for 20 years, which is now
where he is buried and a
museum for his fans). Did
you see anything there that
surprised you or gave you a
different perspective on
Elvis?
A: The house is frozen in
the '70s. The amazing thing
is the racquetball court area
where all his records and
awards are. You can see his
body of work and you just
know it will no doubt stand
the test of time. His home,
even though it was big, also
showed that he was still a
down-home kind of guy.
Q: Do you have followers
that come to every show or
travel to see you?
A: I do have a lot of very,
very nice people who come
out to see the shows all over,
the country. I do have fans
that travel or come back
every time we're near their
area.
Q: In addition to your
tributes to Elvis, you are
also working on some origi-
nal country music and have
written and recorded some
of them. How do you bal-
ance the two?
A: The tributes, of course,
pay the bills, and allow me
to do the country music. I
was doing country covers
when I started doing the
Elvis tribute shows, but real-
lygot into the country music
about four or five years ago.
I have lyrics written all over
napkins, envelopes and lot-
tery tickets that didn't win. I
also dream a lot of songs,
which I know doesn't make
sense, but I will be dreaming
and see a video of the song
in my head and wake myself
up and write down the
words.
I actually have recorded.
four songs in Nashville. I
used the Jordanaires for a lit-
tle bit of flavor on them, and
actually RayWalker from the
Jordanaires is my producer. I
have six more songs I've
written that I need to record,
but right now it's a timing sit-
uation. I plan on completing
the record by February or
March.
Q: Are there any current
country singers that influ-
ence you?
A: There's a lot of great per-
formers. The edgier side of
me likes Toby Keith, and of
course, there's the king of
country music George Strait.
Tim McGraw's also had
some good songs, and Brad
Paisley. I actually have
become a Nashville BMI
writer and as much as I
would like to do some of
these songs (I've written), I
would love for them to do
them as well.
Q: What do you think it is
about Elvis that has kept
him alive for so many peo-
ple?
A: He's kind of the Ameri-
can dream, but at the same
time, it ended in tragedy, as
so many have. It's that Cin-
derella-story kind of thing;
he had nothing and became
the king of rock 'n' roll. He
was cool, which is a word I
know that's used a lot, but
that's what he was.
Chris MacDonald will per-
form his tribute to Elvis Pres-
ley on Jan. 8 at 2 p.m. and
7:30 p.m., at the Maltz
Jupiter Theatre located at
1001 East Indiantown Road.

Local artist
creates official
poster
FOR HOMETOWN NEWS
PALM BEACH GARDENS
- Joe LaPierre of Palm
Beach Gardens was recently
named the official Hobe
Sound Festival of the Arts
Commemorative Poster
Artist.
After judging the submis-
sions of many talented
artists, poster judges
declared his design best
overall.
"Mr. LaPierre's artwork
truly captured the character
of Hobe Sound," said Bette
Evans, president of the Hobe
Sound Women's Club in a
press release.
As an award-winning
acclaimed artist, he is also
very popular throughout
Martin County and has been
commissioned to create sev-
eral works of art.
"Working with a palette
knife and thick, full-bodied
golden acrylic paint keeps
my paintings very loose and
bright. This also adds to the'
cheerful, lighthearted and
optimistic feelings of the
every day life portrayed in
my work," Mr. LaPierre said
when describing his style.
He will unveil and sign
his poster on Jan. 23, during
the Hobe Sound Chamber
of Commerce meeting
social hour.
Originally from New
Hampshire, Mr. LaPierre
received his formal art edu-
cation at the New England
School of Art and the
Boston Museum School of
Art. A veteran of the Viet-
nam era, he painted murals
for the United States Army.
While continuing to devel-
op his skills in the 70s and
80s, he worked as an art
director for corporations in
California, New Hampshire,
New Jersey and Florida.
The festival is slated for
Feb. 2 and 3, along Dixie
Highway/AlA. Show times
are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily
and admission is free.
The event is co-spon-
sored by the Hobe Sound
Chamber of Commerce and
GFWC Hobe Sound
Women's Club.

courage to face tomorrow
with more of the same. I give
thanks for all these great

'SALON I
PUTTING NORMAL
SKIN AGING
INTO REVERSE
The topical vitamin A-based drugs
called retinoids are known to address
the effects of premature skin aging
due to ultraviolet-light exposure
(photoaging.) New research shows
that retinol (a retinoid compound) also
helps counter the signs of skin aging
that are unrelated to sun exposure.
Retinol was found to eliminate .the
fine wrinkles, roughness, and skin
looseness that are associated with
aging skin. Retinol may also increase
aging skin's durability and its
ability to heal. Use of retinol was
associated with increased production
of glycosaminoglycan (which helps
retain water) and procollagen (a
precursor to collagen, which provides
the skin's main support,) The increase
in procollagen in particular suggests
that retinol may strengthen the
underlying tissues, countering age-
related thinning of the skin,
Many people seek an answer to aging
complexion. Research shows that
retinol can diminish the signs of aging
not related to exposure to UV ays, At

water, Worcestershire sauce,
honey and ketchup and cider
vinegar. Cook for 10 minutes.
Then place pork back in the
pan and cook for 20 minutes
on medium heat for a perfect
medium temperature (145
degrees).
Turn the pork over three to
four times throughout the
cooking time, adding 1/4 cup
of water each time you turn
it.
Now for the broccoli.
In a large saute pan over
high heat, add 2 tablespoons
of olive oil, then the broccoli
and cook for 2 minutes. Add
chopped garlic and cook
until garlic turns brown, then
add chicken stock, salt and
pepper. Cover and continue
cooking for 10 minutes over
low heat.
To bring this dish together,
slice the pork tenderloin into
20 slices, sprinkle the ched-
dar cheese on top of the fries
and bake for 1 more minute,
then distribute them evenly
onto four plates.
Put five slices of pork
around the fries on each
plate, then three spears of
broccoli on each plate as
well. Spoon the barbecue
sauce over the sliced pork
and serve.
TIPS & TECHNIQUES
Boil the potatoes before
baking to give then a
crunchy exterior.
You can use bottled bar-
becue sauce instead of mak-
ing your own, but the home-
made is much healthier.
Substitute turkey tender-
loin for the pork for a healthi-
er alternative.
Always cook turkey and
chicken to 165 degrees inter-
nally.
Always let meat rest for at
least 10 minutes before slic-
ing..

First we will start with the
fries because they take the

Clean and cut your pota-

half into 3 to 5 wedges,
depending on how big the
potatoes are. Bring a half gal-
lon of water to boil in a large-
stock pot and cook the pota-
to wedges for 7 minutes on
high heat.
Drain the potatoes into a
strainer then place them
back in the pot, cover and
shake well (10 to 20 seconds).
Then, lay them out on a bak-
ing tray, season with salt and
pepper and place in a pre-
heated oven at 400 degrees
for 30 to 35 minutes or until
golden brown.
In a medium large saute
pan over medium to high

(about 7 minutes). Remove
pork from the pan, turn heat

ith 2008 here,
have you started
thinking about
what's ahead? Will your
New Year be better than
2007 or at least as good?
Will your relationships,
health and income improve
or at minimum, not get
worse? And can you do
anything to make it better?
Or do you find one year
melting into the other and
nothing changes?
If nothing changes in
your life for the better year
after year, this article is for
you.
Positive change comes
not only from using feng
shui in your surroundings,
but also with your thinking.
This year, rather than
looking forward to the New
Year and wondering just
what you should do about
resolutions and changes in
your life, take a look back
first.
Have you resolved the
issues you wanted to
resolve in the past 12
months, such, as relation-
ships that are not working
or a job that is not fulfilling
or paying what you
deserve? Have you made
decisions or completed
things you've been working
on that should have been
done several years ago, or at
least completed by the end
of this year? Do you have a
pattern of holding over one
decision or another year
after year?
Resolve unfinished
things first
Before you look forward
to the New Year, look back
over the past year to see
what has been left unfin-
ished. When there are many
unfinished projects, issues
or decisions left at the end
of the year, you will take
their energy into the New
Year as clutter. And that
clutter will prevent you
from having a new year that
begins with new energy,
new thinking, new ideas
.and new results.
The first step to creating
positive, new energy in the
New Year is to eliminate as
much old stagnant energy
as possible. Re'iew and
evaluate the past 12 months
to see what needs to be
resolved, then try some of
the following positive
energy solutions:
If you are agonizing
over making a long-term
investment, come to a
decision and get on with
your life. If you don't, you
will transfer that same
agonizing energy into the
New Year and it will reside
there as clutter until you
finally make your decision.
If you are in a relation-
ship that simply is not
working, make a decision
today to move on and then
do it. It does not serve you
or the other person well to
continue a relationship that
is not what you want or is
not going anywhere. This
type of negative energy can
be very suffocating and
even result in poor health
over a long period of time.
If you are looking for a
new long-term relationship
then quit talking about it
and do something about it.
If you have been unsuc-
cessful in finding the right
person to sharelyour life
with in the places you've
been looking, find other
activities to participate in
that would provide you new
opportunities to meet
people. You will find the
relationship you are looking
for only when you com-
pletely focus positive
energy on finding an
appropriate relationship for
you.
If your health is an issue
and you used to feel better
when you worked out or did
yoga on a weekly basis but
quit because of a time
crunch or an emotional

Childhood games mimic relationship patterns
f life sometimes seems a
little hard to understand,
maybe it's because life is
so often a paradox.
This quality in ourselves
occasionally surprises us.
Equally often, we surprise
and confound our loved
ones when we change from
expressing one aspect to
another, perhaps its'
seeming opposite.
A normally calm person
becomes suddenly agitated.
A kind and respectful
partner unleashes a cruel,
heartless comment. Or how
about this one: a loving and
supportive spouse abruptly
decides to take some
distance and express his
independence.
Hanging in there with
another human being
demands flexibility and
self-possession that can be
hard to conjure and main-
tain.
We usually don't have
much warning when the
shift appears. Taken aback,
we shoot from the hip,
reactively, feeling wounded
and resentful of the uncer-
tainty introduced by a
whimsical or deliberate
change in our partner's
demeanor. This can be
especially disconcerting
when the shift is along the
dimension of belonging and
separation. Our love partner
has the unique power to
make us feel lonely and
unimportant. Alternatively,
they can make us feel
overwhelmed and burdened
by demands.
Much of this is nothing
more than an adult version
of a game we've played
since we were children:
peek-a-boo, the original
game of loss and recovery.
In peek-a-boo, the child
ducks out of sight and
temporarily loses the
mother's image, delighting
in the knowledge that he's
not really fused with her, i
but has the ability to exist
independently. He doesn't
want too much separation
though. He's just playing a
(-~ -

separation game. He quickly
re-establishes visual
contact. He's practicing a
real-life skill: the ability to
be separate and together, to
go away and come back, to
tolerate isolation and
renegotiate contact. It's the
primal rhythm of relation-
ships.
A slightly later version is
the runaway game. The
child takes off in a random
direction. He has no
intention of leaving perma-
nently. He knows what will
happen. Mother will run up
behind him before he gets
into any danger and scoop
him up in her protective
embrace. He's just playing,
at being free.
Of course, at that age, the
child has no understanding
of what freedom means or
the dangers that await him
in the street or at the top of
the basement stairs. He's
also testing mother's
reliability. Mother, aware of
the cars rushing by just
beyond the yard, has her
own agenda; nothing to do
with the separation game.
It's the child who starts this
and he'll play it when it suits
him. His purpose is to flirt
with independence and
then achieve reconciliation.
Adults do this, too. People
have differing appetites for
togetherness and separa-
tion, that is, they have
varying abilities to tolerate
them.

setback, make a decision to
get back into the habit of
participating in weekly
physical activity. Don't just
think about it. If physical
activity makes you feel
better, do it. Your spirits
and health will both
improve.
If you hate going to
work because you are
under appreciated and
underpaid, research your
options. Find all the
possible opportunities
available that will pay you
or can lead to the income
you want and will also
provide a sense of accom-
plishment and recognition.
If you do not find-many
options in your field, look
into other fields of work
that can use your talents.
Staying indefinitely at a job
you hate is very stressful.
Once you find all of your
options take action so you
can be in-control of your
lif6, not your current
employer.
Plan now for a successful
2008. Eliminate as much
unfinished business clutter
as possible before the end
of this year so new energy
will be your only compan-
ion as you transition into
the New Year.
The most successful new
beginnings are ones where
the old energy has been
shifted out of your life,
making room for positive,
new energy that is support-
ive of tle new future you
are creating.'
If you plan for a better
new year, you will have a
better new year.

A person who has too
much of togetherness will
make a play for separation.
One who has had too much
separation longs for con-
nection. It's entirely normal
for a couple to continually
adjust themselves along this
dimension. But as they do
so, they threaten each other
by introducing too much of
one quality or the other.
The partner is likely to
feel abandoned (or maybe
relieved) when their mate
seeks separation; then
crowded (or maybe delight-
ed) when they seek close-
ness. Most of the time, when
they go far enough one way
it triggers an urge to go back
the other way.
The partner, meanwhile
and unfortunately, lacks the
confidence the mother
takes for granted in the
game of peek-a-boo; that
baby will reappear before
long because he never really
went away. He's just playing
his "freedom" game.
We are creatures who
continually establish and
dis-establish our homeosta-
sis. We seek equilibrium, but
almost as reliably, we act to
unbalance ourselves. We
don't always do this on
purpose but we do it fairly
regularly. So, we have to
keep making adjustments.
Those who love us may not
always understand or
appreciate the gestures we
make either to stay in
balance or to un-balance
(when we get too bored or
anxious.) And yet, those
who are close to us are
forced to accommodate us
even when they don't really
want to.
Let's suppose, for exam-
ple, that we find ourselves
in a "committed" relation-
ship. Perhaps we've already
stood up in front of God and
everyone else and said that
we mean to stay together
until one of us is carried out
on a slab.
Nevertheless, each time
we have a bad fight one of
us calls an end to the

marriage. This may be a
reasoned response to a
genuinely unworkable
relationship. More likely, it's
an emotional over-reaction
to a felt need for distance.
We've simply had too much
closeness, perhaps in the
form of honest confronta-
tion.
What we'd really like is to
take a few days off, get away
from each other for a while.
But maybe that's not
possible (because we don't
allow that; it makes us too
scared or it's not convenient
for one of us). So we call the
whole thing off. Thus, a play
for distance turns into a
"life-threatening" catastro-
phe.
If we later make up, then
this whole drama was likely
an adult game of peek-a-
boo and runaway. Whee!
Isn't this fun?

A new book from Rory

how to "Win Friends on the

book was written in about
three minutes and-must be

Rory's wife.
On the other side of the
coin, Ben Crane's long-
awaited book, "Golf My
Way," is still incomplete.
Crane began work on the
book while a senior in high
school. The publisher hopes
to have the book on the
shelves in time for the 2010
holiday season.
A compilation book,
written by many of today's
PGA players, is finally ready.
The book, "How to Stretch
the Rules to Your Advan-
tage;' covers how to proper-
ly apply the rules of golf to
your greatest benefit. There

Sergio Garcia's new book
deals with proper whine
selection. "El Diablo's Guide
to Whining" instructs the
golfer on the fine art of
which whine goes with
which poor shot. Golfers
need to know that the same
whine used for a bad
bounce is not the same as
the one used when the*
caddie gave him or her poor
advice or read the putt
incorrectly. This could be
the "must read" of the year;
Jim Furyk's long-awaited
book "Starting Over and

Mr. Furyk has yet to find
the book quite to his liking.
He seems to be stuck in a
constant loop of reading the
book, re-reading the book,
getting ready to send it to
the publisher, then re-
reading it again and starting
over.

is a wonderful chapter on
how to best lift, clean and
place your ball when
conditions are wet. Another
explains how to get a free
drop from atop a clubhouse
roof or from under a bush
when a television cable is
within 50 yards.
"Aquaman's Guide to
Sand Saves and Snorkeling"
is Woody Austin's latest
foray into the world of
instructional books. Austin's
book, filled with fabulous
pictures and diagrams,
details how to hit those
pesky greenside bunker
shots and enjoy a few
difficult time in their lives.
A book that should
inspire millions was
penned by Nick O'Hern. In
"How to Hunt Down a
Tiger," he tells of how he
has taken down the world's
No. 1 golfer in match play
the past two years. Mr.
Sabatini's attempt to write a
similar book was thwarted
when Tiger Woods took his
pen from him.
Finally, I believe that
Tiger must have given that
pen to his trusty caddie,
Steve Williams. In the pages
of his book, "A Caddie's
Guide to Photo Etiquette,"
Williams gives would-be
paparazzi tips on how to
prevent their cameras from
winding up at the bottom of
' lake.
As for me;,I have yet to
begin my book. Parts of it
are somewhere in my head.
Perhaps some day they will
make it to the bookstore.
Until then, keep reading
my column, right here,
every week. Happy New
Year!
