Former Stuart mayor
faces new
felony charges

Former Stuart mayor,
Robert Lee Hall, a convicted
felon, faces new charges
stemming from the last
election.
Authorities say Mr. Hall
used false identification
information on a voter reg-
istration card, and now
faces a third-degree felony
charge.
The former mayor is one
of at least three people that
authorities say voted,
despite being convicted
felons who had not had
their voting rights restored.
Also arrested was Mike
Leggett, 37, of Spruce Street,
in Stuart. And sheriff
deputies said they expected
to make a third arrest soon. .
Mr. Hall's lawyer, Thomas
Colter, said his client was
not a flight risk, and suc-
ceeded in lowering.his bail
from $30,000 to $1,000,
according to published
reports.

Marinas seek Bahamas


partners to boost tourism


By Samantha Joseph
Joseph@hometownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY - A group of
local promoters is looking to build
strategic partnerships with yachting
and marina centers in the Bahamas.
Its plan is called Flahama, a nod to
the long-term Florida and Bahamas
ties they hope to create on the Trea-
sure Coast.
"This is my version of Margari-
taville....," said Gary Guertin, gener-
al manager of Harborage Yacht Club
and Marina in Stuart. "We've created
a fun concept that's not only going
to reinvigorate the boating industry,
but create business for our friends
in the Bahamas as well."
Promoters plan to unveil the cross
marketing venture at the Stuart Boat
Show, scheduled for Jan. 9-11.
The idea is to team with marinas
along the west coast of Florida, the

MARTIN COUNTY- A
Stuart agency that began
as tiny organization has
emerged as a key advocate
for people with disabili-
ties.
Helping People Suc-
ceed, a nonprofit estab-
lished in 1964, has
become one of the first
agencies in the country to
become fully reaccredited
under the Healthy Fami-
lies America program,
which aims to prevent
child abuse and neglect.
"This was a cause for
celebration," said
Suzanne Hutcheson, CEO
of the Helping People
Foundation, which serves
more than 3,000 people
eachyear.
To gain certification, the
agency had to meet or
exceed all standards set by
the national group for
promoting positive par-
enting, enhancing chil-
dren's health and develop-
ment and preventing
child abuse and neglect,
according to, Healthy
Families America.
Surveyors from the
umbrella organization
spent two days with
employees of the Stuart
agency to observe their
work habits. They also

Stay safe and
secure this
holiday season
By Jessica Tuggle
jtuggle@hometownnewsol.com
TREASURE COAST--
Schools are out and fami-
ly members drop by for vis-
its. Every night, it seems, is
filled with parties or baking,
but before you start
munching on those holiday


treats, guard yourself
against criminals looking to
take advantage during the
holidays.
Rhonda Irons, media offi-
cer for the Martin County
Sheriff's Office, suggested
the following tips for safety
at home:'
*Turn on outside lights to
deter burglars.
* Make sure doors and
windows are locked when
leaving the house, even for
a few moments
* Do not display large


holiday gifts in view of win-
dows or doors.
'* Break down and recycle
large boxes instead of put-
ting them out for the:
garbage collector.
S"Residents can never be
too careful, prepared or
aware," said Officer Irons in
an e-mail.
Take precautions before
"leaving your home as well.
The National Crime Pre-
vention .Council brochure
on holiday safety provided
the following tips for holi-


day vacationers:
* Ask a neighbor to watch
your home and park in the
driveway from time to time.
* Don't forget to have mail
and newspaper delivery
stopped. If it piles up, it's a
sure sign you're gone.
Even if you areojust leav-
ing your home for a short
while, the NCPC recom-
mends leaving the televi-
sion or radio and a few
lights on, to give crooks the
impression that someone is
home.


Having an inventory list
of valuables in your home is
also a good precaution to
take, in case something is
stolen from your home.
That could' also help with
insurance claims, authori-
ties said.
"There have been a lot
more burglaries of cars
being reported that have
been unlocked with valu-
ables inside," said Deputy
Jeff Luther, public informa-

ENGINEERING BEAUTY
For those who love the look of
wood floors, engineered wood
provides a practical choice for
overconcrete slabs and in envi-
rons where solid wood flooring
cannot be applied (such as
below grade for finished base-
ments). Aside from meeting
these practical challenges, engi-
neered wood flooring mimics the
look of real wood by applying a
thin wood veneer over a ply-
wood substrate. Because the
thickness of engineered wood is
only three-eights to five-eights-
of-an-inch deep, it can be
applied over an existing floor
(such as in a kitchen renovation)
with minimal increase in floor
height. Most engineered flooring
is available in tongue-and-
groove strips that must be sta-
pled or glued to the subfloor.
Other, such as "long-plank"
types, are designed for "floating"
installations
Because they are so thin and
require no subfloor, engineered
wood floors are an economical
and beautiful option for base-
ments and other room renova-
tions. If you have any questions
about engineered wood floors,
give us a call today. We special-
ize in creating beautiful and
green interiors for commercial or
residential spaces. We can also
provide construction project
management. Our office is locat-
ed 1565 SW Martin Hwy., Palm
City. Please call 561-756-6951
to schedule a consultation.
HINT: Virtually all engineered
flooring comes prefinished, usu-
ally with "eased edges," which
are slightly rounded edges that
provide small V-grooves
between each board.

Adopted children, Destiny Neumann, 11, and her sister Jade, 9 (right), made about 75 stuffed bears, most of which they
donated to local charities.



Adopted girls donate



stuffed toys to less fortunate


For Hometown News
News@holnetownnewsol.com
MARTIN COUNTY-
They've had their share of
struggles, but two Martin
County girls say they want to
help other children during
the holiday season.
Sisters Destiny and Jade
Neumann donated more
lhan 60 stuffed toys to chil-
dren whose families are fac-
ing financial hardship.
In a few quiet meetings
with representatives from
several charities across the
county, the girls gave away
several Build-A-Bear Work-
shop toys they created over
the past two years.
"We wanted to show our
love," said Jade, 9, about the
donation.
She and her 11-year-old
sister no longer live with


their parents.
Their grandparents,
William and Sheilah Neu-
mann adopted the girls
about five years ago, when
their father started a second
prison term.
'"They were in bad situa-
tions with my daughter and
their father," Mrs. Neumann
said.
And as a result, authorities
placed the children in the
Neumann's care.
Mr. Neumann is a supervi-
sor at a chemical company,
where he has worked for the
last 30 years. His wife owns a
small cleaning business.
After, adopting the girls,
the couple sold their retire-
ment home.
"There's not going to be
any retirement, because we
have the children," Mrs.
Neumann said. "But we're


happy to have them. They're
great kids."
During the difficult transi-
tion, the girls developed a
love for building bears.
They received several gift
certificates for Build-A-Bear
Workshop toys from well-
wishers. Each bear can range
in price from about $25 to
$60.
Making the bears became
a favorite pasttime, with
Destiny and Jade creating 75
plush toys over the years.
But talk of a downturn in
the economy led the girls to
want to do something to
help other children, their
grandmother said.
"They came to me and
asked if they could donate
(the bears)," she said.
Moved by the offer, Ms.
Neumann began to call local
groups to find recipients.


The Neumann girls donat-
ed some of their bears to
two families with 12 chil-
dren.
"We were grateful and
happy to be able to do it,"
said Destiny. "We are always
told to believe, succeed,
achieve and give to others."
The girls also gave more
than 50 bears to the Toys for
Tots Foundation.
* "It was unbelievable to get
a phone and realize that
these girls took it upon
themselves to do this for
other kids," said Carol Hod-
nett, director of Martin Vol-
unteers, who coordinates
local Toys for Tots efforts.
"This means a lot to Toys
for Tots and it means a lot to
all the children who will be
receiving these bears that
were made with love," she
said.

Bahamian counterparts for
years in his role as manager
of Pirates Cove Resort and
Marina in Stuart.
Since the mid-1990s, he
has worked with Bahamian
tourism officials and mari-
na operators to offer special


rates and incentives to
boaters between Florida
and the islands.
In recent months, Mr.
Guertin has been working
on rebuilding these rela-
tionships.
"It's really about a collab-
orative effort that benefits
everyone," he said.
Promoters from the two
countries plan to share a


booth at the upcoming Stu-
art boat show and start get-
ting the word out about
their venture.
Harborage Yacht Club and
Marina has planned four
promotional boating trips
to the islands of the
Bahamas in 2009, but a
spokesperson said the
group might do as many as
six.


Trips are set to range from
three days to two weeks,
with partner properties in
the Bahamas offering dis-
counts to participants.
The idea has gained some
attention in the trade press,
with Coastal Angler Maga-
zine covering Flahama in its
December issue.
"I think the potential is
limitless," Mr. Guertin said.

The Roles of
Mercury and
Cyanide
Two materials are of major impor-
tance in extracting gold from rock.
The first is mercury, which readily
forms alloys with a number of met-
als, including gold. Once formed,
these alloys, or amalgams, can be
"undone" by heating them.
Mercury has a low boiling point so
when heat is applied to an amal-
gam, the mercury can be vapor-
ized. As the mercury boils off, it
leaves behind the metal with which
it was alloyed and the mercury can
easily be condensed and re-used.
This affinity of mercury for gold is
the basis of a method of recovery
that has been used for centuries.
Gold-bearing rock is pulverized,
and it may then be washed with
running water so that the lighter
materials floated away and the
heavier gold trapped, in the ridges
of corduroy cloth, for example.
The remaining material is then
mixed with mercury to. produce
gold amalgam. The amalgam is
carefully boiled and the gold left
behind is ready for further refine-
ment to remove any silver, copper
or palladium it may contain.
Ancient Romans used this tech-
nique in their mining industry and
they made sure that any ore treat-
ed in this way was finely crushed
so the maximum amount of gold
could be recovered. In the
process of using cyanide the cold
bearing ore is ground up extreme-
ly fine and treated with a very dilut-
ed solution of sodium cyanide,
with water and oxygen. The ore
and other chemicals are mixed
together in a vat and stirred to
make sure that all the gold comes
in contact with the cyanide. The
reactions that occur between them
produce compounds from which
gold is comparatively easy to liber-
ate. The solution is treated in a
vacuum to suck out the oxygen
and the remaining material is then
washed, dried and melted.

An Open Letter to Florida Car Dealers.

Eliminate the "Dealer Fee".
Fellow Florida Car Dealers, if you don't Now, here is the good n
know me, I should tell you that I don't profess ing the dealer fee my pr
to be some "holier than thou" car dealer who by about the amount of

When I look at some of my past advertising
and sales tactics, I am not always proud.
But I have evolved as my customers have
evolved. My customers' expectations, level
of education and sophistication.are much
higher today. Your customers are no different.
My remarks are made sincerely and with a
positive intent toward you and your custom-
ers. I am not trying to tell you ' -
how to run your business. I "My CU
am suggesting a change that
will reward both d y and your xpectat
customers.


Virtually every car dealer ofeduc
in Florida adds a charge to
the price of cars he sells, a SOphistil
"dealer fee/doc fee/dealer
prep" fee ranging from $500 muchhig
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
andjour profit in such a manner that it is not
notiUed 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.

customers in buying their new

same.
Why am I writing this letter?
I'm not going to tell you that
I think of myself as the new
"sheriff' that has come to
"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.

In response to 'Against Obama'

This is in reply to the "gentleman" or "lady" who wrote
"Against Obama" in the Dec. 12 issue.
I feel sorry for a person who calls the majority of Ameri-
cans morons, and refers to a past president and his wife as
scumbags.
This is the mentality of a non-believer in anything good.
During this economy and being in a senseless war, which all
wars are, we have to look to the future and pray for peace.
To the person that wrote the article, I wish them peace.

More on 'Against Obama'

It is apparent that "Against Obama" is very rich because
they can't remember the good things that the Clintons did,
i.e. left us with a surplus and no debt that the last president
spent in a war, that was none of our business because it was
his daddy's friends' (the Saudis) who attacked the U.S., not
Iraq.
I am so sure that you are rich because you don't need the
money you lost on Wall Street or you would be mad at Presi-
dent Bush and his henchmen. Stop blaming Bill and Hillary
for the mess that your president put us in.
President-elect Obama will turn this economy around
because he is smarter then the president of the last eight
years. He has already started to planhow new jobs will be
achieved. President Bush could only concentrate on the
price of gas, the loss of money in the country, the loss of
millions of jobs, the collapse of industries that have been
around for years. My only regret is that you will probably
prosper under this administration.
Don't be so quick to call the Clintons scumbags. Look at
the White House today and call them worse.

Belated Christmas wishes

Dear Santa,
We wish for our government and corporate American
CEQs to show some compassion for the working-class folk
of this country, the people who put y6u in power and bail us.
out.
,Take one of those $85 billion bailout packages. anddivvy
it up among those 2 million to 2.5 million people or so, out
there working to keep you in that power.
Eighty-five billion divided by 2 million or 2.5 million, do
the math and understand what that might do for the econo-
my. It would definitely be a whole lot better stimulus pack-,
age than what the Bush administration gave us.
Santa, we also wish that local and:network television sta-
tions would change their advertisers, the lizard and Bright-
house need to slacken up considerably, the current ambu-
lance chasers, appliance salespeople and lawyer referral
groups just need to go away'period for something new.
Barack Hussein Obama said we need change.
And Santa, about the only other thing that I wish for this
season is that something be done for the people who can't
at least do the speed limit on the roads.
Thank you, Santa, for reading this letter. Merry Christmas
to you, the people of'this country ard the troops who are
fighting for our freedoms.

Who'sthe idiot?

To the person who wrote toughen up U.S.A. You criticize
Obama who hasn't.even been inaugurated yet. And you talk
about the Clintons. But what about Bush? He hasn't been
able to find Bin Laden, who has been hiding for years. I,
guess that makes you andBush the idiots.

Sore losers

What .gives you the right: to call those who voted for
Obama morons? What sore losers! I hope you have fun in
Canada.

Self-centered Americans

Americans never cease to amaze me. They are self-cen-
tered and conceited. They think they are the smartest on
earth. They think they have invented everything. Everyone
should have a corrupt government like us and have thieving

Don't shoot the messenger


T en I recommend
AVG Free to people
to use to keep their
machines protected from
viruses, I am often asked,
"how is it that they can give it
away for free?" or simply,
"what's the catch?"
When a software provider
provides a free version of its
software, along with a
version that you have to pay
for, you are on your own if
you decide to get the free
version. That typically means
no support from the compa-
ny that wrote the software if
you have issues.
This concept (while very
reasonable to me) seems to
annoy some people and I'll
use A\u as an example.
Here is a company that
provides a free version of its
software for regular home
users and a commercial
version that costs money
When you go to their Web
site (http://ww.avg.com)
and look around, you can see
a comparison chart as to
what's available in the free
version vs. what's available in
the version you have to pay
for.
Now, there is nothing
stopping users from buying
the "pay for" version (it's not


COMPUTE
THIS
SEAN MCCARTHY


just for businesses) but there
is something stopping
businesses from download-
ing the free version. ,
Now let's say you are
running the free version and
you get a message that it has
found a virus or some critical
error that it cannot automat-
ically fix. If you attempt to go
back to theWeb site and get
them to help you, they are
going to want you to pay for
Their help because you are
using the free version.
This should come as no
surprise, as it is clearly
mentioned on theWeb site,
but it sure does catch people
off guard.
Remember, the main
reason machines get infected
is a lack of an up-to-date
antivirus program.
Grisoft offers a free
program (AVG) that updates
itself without any need for a
Subscription and helps
uninfected machines stay
that way. If you have not
been running an up-to-date


antivirus program and
decide to download the free:
edition, don't be surprised if,
once you install it, you find
that your machine is
infected.
That's not the anti-virus
software's fault, that's the
fault of lack of maintenance.
If the program comes up and
tells you that you have a virus
it can't clean and you don't'
know how to clean it yourself
(here's ahint Google the
virus name), then you are
likely going to have to pay
someone to fix it for you.
If you download a free
virus scanner and put it on a
machine that has been on
the Internet for months with
no protection and it discov-
ers a virus;dont expect - -,
anyone to come bail you out
and don't get mad at the
software company for
wanting to get paid to do
something that goes beyond
the scope of their rather
generous free service. And
certainly don't get mad at me
for telling you it's going to
cost to get it fixed.
When I write about a piece
of software available on the
Internet for free, try tokeep a
few things in mind.
First, I didn't write the
software. I'm just telling you


about it.
Second, when I take the
time to write about free
software it is safe to assume
that I have looked it over
carefully for viruses, spyware
and all the other garbage that
some of the free stuff comes
loaded with and as far as I
can see, it's safe.
Third, if you have
questions about a down-
load I mention here, check
the Web site. The answers
are usually right there on
the main page.
And finally, just because
you are downloading a free
program, don't expect the
same kind of support you
would get if you were paying
for the software. The details
~"'ofwhatyou aregetting-for-
free (and why they are giving
it away for free) again are
usually right there on the
Web site.
I hope that answers some
of the e-mails I've gotten. If I
haven't gotten to your e-mail
yet, please be patient with
-me, myinboxis a bit
swamped right now.

Party hearty, but party safe


Tt's a party time of year and
nobodywants to be the
Jparty-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 partygoers 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
feel that the holiday time is
different and you can relax
the rules, MADD offers the
following sobering statistics:
�' in 2006,17,602 people
were killed in alcohol-related
crashes, which is an average
of one every 30 minutes.
Alcohol-related deaths
account for nearly41 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


barbeques and tailgate
parties as well as traditional
holiday events, there are
things you need to knov to
keep your party safe. This is
not only being a good,
responsible host. Ifyou serve
liquor, you may be liable for
accidents caused byyour
guests.
Donald Murray, MADD
Florida executive director,
said that this message
cannot be overstated.
"We encourage those who
are going to host a party to be
responsible hosts and do all
they can to ensure that their
guests don't drink and drive.
Guests should make plans
well in advance for a desig-
nated driver, taxi or alternate
means of transportation.
"Further, hosts should
understand that they can be
held legally responsible for
crashes occurring as a result
of driving under the influ-
ence that occurred as a result
of alcohol provided by the
host," he said.
The following dos and
don't are taken from the
MADDWeb site. For infor-
mation on volunteering or


joining one of the 25 chap-
ters in Florida, go to
www.madd.org/fl.
If you are the victim of a
drunk driver, call the toll free
hotline at (800) 772-6233.,
Ifyou are a host, here's
what you need to 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.
*Do offer non-alcoholic
alternatives, and if a guest is
drinking too much, offer to
freshen up their drink with a
non-alcoholic version.
eClose 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 such as 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 an


alcoholic punch, use anon-
carbonated base, such as
*fruit juice. 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 thatyou are
ultimately responsible for
your behavior. Don'tput
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.

edged for its efforts in the
2006-07 school year.
Other schools have also
signed on for the program,
district officials say.
Dr. David L. Anderson Mid-
die School is in its second
year, while Stuart Middle
School and Pinewood Ele-
mentary are participating for
the first time.
Their work reflects the
broader efforts of a district
that gained top grades for
raising test scores, reduced
energy consumption and
improved after-school pro-
grams.
For the seventh year in a
row, the district gained an "A"
rating under Florida's A+
Plan, designed to set stan-
dards for students' perform-


ance and publicly report
results.
And in recent months, it got
a nod of approval when the
September 2008 auditor gen-
eral's report named Martin
County one of five school dis-
tricts in the state that had no
audit findings for the past two
years.
But despite its strong show-
ing, the district is not without.
its challenges.
Cutbacks in federal spend-
ing chopped nearly $2.5 mil-


lion from the budget of Mar-
tin County schools, said
Nancy Kline, the district's new
superintendent.
The cuts meant that staff
had to forego raises.
"These types of cuts to edu-
cation are unprecedented in
our state," she said in a state-
ment.
But meanwhile, Martin
County schools improved
their graduation rate this
school year to 91.9 percent,
up from 91.2 percent last year.

And the district main-
tained its low numbers for
school dropouts. It outper-
formed 64 of the state's 67
school districts, maintaining
a dropout rate well below
Florida's average of 2.6 per-
cent.
"These results show the
strong focus among our
teachers, administrators and
parents toward supporting
our students' efforts to com-
plete their education," Ms.
Kline said.

Y ou might think that I
have a more of a
penchant for the small
ship cruising over other
types, since many of my
recent columns have
touched upon the various
small ship cruise lines.
However, it is the interest
of my clients that have me
researching and finding the
vacation that matches their
criteria. I just love doing
this type of research. I find
myself getting excited with
my finds.
Which brings me to my
latest find: American Safari


Cruises, a luxury yacht
experience that cruises the
wildlife-rich waters of the
Alaska, Pacific Northwest,
Columbia and Snake Rivers,'
Mexico's Sea of Cortds and
the Hawaiian Islands.
I am seeing a bit of a
trend in those seeking
smaller, more intimate and
adventurous cruise experi-
ences. Even in these times
of uncertainty, many of our
clients refuse to allow it to
keep them from traveling.
Some are traveling less with
more meaningful experi-
ences, while others choose
to continue with their travel.
plans, as this is what they
worked their whole lives for.
I applaud their tenacity.
My clients wanted
something different. They
are a well-traveled couple,
love cruising and have
cruised many of the larger
ships. However,-as they get
older, they feel they want to
try other experiences.
During our discussions


we touched on a few key
points of interest. They
wanted a more adventurous
trip, but were not keen on
giving up their comfort nor
their sense of taste for the
finer things that cruises
generally offer. This discus-
sion brought us to Ameri-
can Safari Cruises and an
Alaska itinerary. They were
excited and so was I.

"There were discussions

crisis, Ted Smith and his

sure Rep. Domino and his

are all very accessible. Of

The private family
cruisesfeature customized
itineraries and activities, a
kid-friendly crew (when
kids are on board), private
shore excursions all at one
inclusive price.
This also works for-
private group travel as
well, those, who share a
common interest such as
native culture, diving,
photography, golf, wed-
ding/honeymoon and
holiday cruises,-or just a
bunch of friends wanting
to spend that time togeth-
er.


Some of the itineraries
include: Alaska Glacier Bay
National Park, adventur-
ers' fjords and bears,
naturalists' whale country,
and the famed Inside
Passage. The Hawaiian
Islands form the largest
wildlife and marine
sanctuary, therefore the
Hawaiian seascapes
captures a glimpse of some
of the more than 7,000
marine species, exotic and
endangered animals.
Whale watching of the
Humpback whales off the
Big Island and Maui is only
one of the highlights.
The Gulf of California's
(also known as the Sea of
Cort6s) itinerary takes you
along this 700-mile-long
arm of the Pacific Ocean
that separates the Baja
California peninsula from


Mexico's mainland. The
entire voyage takes place
in the biosphere reserve,
an internationally recog-
nized world heritage site,
which consists of 244
islands, all protected by a
reserve that creates a.
natural environment of
striking beauty and
diversity.
ASC falls under the
categories of both small


ship and luxury cruise line.
More consumers are
looking for that something
different in travel, and they
will find it with ASC.

Stewart
From page A9
never got out of the Senate
Commerce Commiftee. I do
not want anybody to think
that my drafting a bill falls
short of making the dealer
fee illegal is a sign of
weakness or a sign of my
"selling out" to the FADA.
My ultimate goal remains to
make the dealer fee illegal,
period. But I am convinced
that there is a much greater
chance of getting a compro-
mise bill passed into law.
This compromise will be
better than having nothing
at all.
After you've read my
proposed bill below, please
give me your opinion and
suggestions by calling my
no dealer fee hotline at
(800) 809-9879. On this
hotline, you will be able to
record your thoughts on the
dealer fee.Your voicemail
will be forwarded to my e-
mail via an audio file, which
I can then forward to Rep.
Domino and Sen. Atwater.
* The dealer fee printed
on the buyer's order should
be directly below the cash
selling price and the
column just below that
should read, "cash selling
price including dealer fee."
The dealer fees currently
disclosed on buyers' orders
are enmeshed in the middle
of legitimate taxes and fees.
Because the dealer fee is
profit, and part of the selling
price of the car and sales tax
must be paid on it, it should
be displayed as part of the
price of the car, not as part
of the taxes and legitimate
fees.
* A ar buyer should have
the right to negotiate the
dealer fee, just as she can
the rest of the price of the
car. Next to the dealer fee on
the car windows and the
vehicle buyer's order, must
appear the word "nego-
tiable." Furthermore,
salespeople cannot tell car
buyers that they "cannot
remove the dealer fee from
the buyer's order" which is
universally the practice
presently.
* Dealers who violate the
dealer fee law should be
fined and there should be
internal enforcement by
FADA.
Currently, there is virtual-
ly no enforcement of the
dealer fee law. What good is
there of passing a new law if
the old, inadequate law is
not even enforced? The
fines should be severe and
progressive.
I've had talks with Ted
Smith and FADA about
establishing an internal
control system that would

support this, but I believe
this would greatly enhance
the enforcement of the new

* A customer who can
prove that the dealer fee
was not disclosed as
required by law, is entitled
to 100 percent reimburse-
ment of the dealer fee plus
her legal fees and costs.
* Do not allow manufac-
turer/distributor group ads


to exclude the dealer fee
from their advertised prices.
This loophole exists in the
current law. The argument
is that it would be too
"confusing" if a separate
price was advertised for
each dealer in the ad. If the
manufacturer/distributor
wished to run just price,
then he must be required to
identify the amount of each
dealer's dealer fee next to
that dealer's name.

Mullet-haired tenors at Lyric


By Shelley Koppel
Entertainment writer
STUART - Dinny Maguire sings
bass in Three Redneck Tenors.
Being the unusual one is usual for a
man who's been a choir director,
artist-in-resident in Alaska, television
talk show host, sit-com warm-up guy,
and ringmaster for both Ringling
Brothers and the Big Apple circuses.
He and the tenors return to the
Treasure Coast with their original
show, "A New Musical Adventure," at
the Lyric Theatre on Jan. 4-5. Mr.
Maguire spoke about what a phe-
nomenon the group has become in
just a few years.
"In 19791 went to a wonderful festi-
val of singers ii Switzerland with a
choir," he said. "I met a kid, Matthew
Lord, who had turned 18 and had a
glorious voice. He was a maniac of a
madman," he said.
"When I got back to the States, I
was the vaudeville director and
emcee for the great American Melo-
drama and Vaudeville Theatre. I hired
the kid and we became good friends.
"Five Christmases ago, when I was
with the Big Apple Circus, Matt was in'
the opera 'Boris Godonuv' and we
hung out in the trailer. I got a call that-
he was putting a call together. He said
he didn't have a show, just an idea.
"For three or four months he'd call
and read dialogue.'My show had a
hiatus and we rehearsed Matt's show
for eight days. Then we started get-
ting bookings. I gave my notice to,the
circus."
The show that evolved was "Three
Redneck Tenors-A New Musical/
Adventure."


Photo courtesy of the Lyric
John Wilkerson, Dinny McGuire, Alex Bumpas and Matthew Lord perform in
'Three Redneck Tenors: A New Musical Adventure' at the Lyric Theatre on
Jan. 4-5.


Featuring classically-trained
singers, the show tells the story of
three mullet-wearing boys named
Billy Bob, Billy Joe, and Billy Billee,
who want to get out of La Donna
Mobile Home Park in Paris, Texas.
Mr. Maguire plays the Colonel, the
boys' manager, and acts as narrator.
The boys leave.their trailer on their
way to Carnegie Hall, performing
everything from "YMCA" to the aria '
"Nessun Dorma." Without giving too
much away, they're pretty good look-
ing Elvises, but plug-ugly women.
The show was so successful that
they were asked to appear on "Ameri-
ca's Got Talent" and had an extended
run at the Luxor in Las Vegas.
Mr. Maguire, who not only nar-
rates, but sings as well, is having the
time of his life and hopes audiences


will, too.
"It's first-rate singing, but it's not
presented in a way that makes you
look at your watch;" he said. "That
doesn't happen.
"It's like a variety show. Every time,
something is done in a different way.
The comedy is silly stuff that keeps
you laughing. It's the juxtaposition of
absolute inanity and incredible musi-
cianship that makes the music better
and the comedy funnier," he said.

Three Redneck Tenors bring their
"New Musical Adventure" to the Lyric
Theatre, 59 S.W. Flagler Ave., Stuart,
on Jan 4 at 3 and 7 p.m. and on Jan 5
at 5 and 8 p.m. Tickets are $35 and

eat pork and black-eyed peas
on NewYear's Day.
I can remember NewYear's.
eve being a celebration where
we made as much noise as
possible at the stroke of '
midnight. I have some noise
makers from my parents that
date back more than 70 years
(no cut fingers from sharp
metal, that's for sure).
To me, it's a capital sin to be
sleeping at midnight. I used
to wake my kids up just to
make noise. Silly? Childish?
Maybe so, btit I hope to never
lose that excitement.
Resolve to love one another
more. Don't think there will
always be tomorrow. Some-
times tomorrow never comes.
Today's column is a tribute
to Mamma, my paternal
grandmother.


For NewYear's she made
cookies, not regular cookies
but special Italian treats
coated with honey and
topped with colored candy
sprinkles. Strufoli (honey
clusters) many of yu are
familiar with, but her other
specialty is one I bet you've
never heard of. Tordillo (hope
the spelling's right), made
with olive oil and wine, was
everyone's favorite.
When I finally decided to
make them, I kept hearing
Mamma saying, "You have to
feel when it's right." Back my
memory went to when I was
17 and I remembered
Mamma. I asked for the
recipe and Mamma said in
her delightful Italian accent,
"You come over and we do it
together."
What I thought was going
to be very easy turned out to
be a bit of a fiasco when I kept
questioning Mamma's
instructions. Here's how it
went while making the
Tordillos.
Mamma: Dump flour on


the board.
Me: How much flour?
Mamma: This much, she
said as she pointed. Make a
hole in the center of the flour
and pouring 1 glass of wine
and 1/2 glass oil.
Me: What size glass?
Wouldn't you know I meant
how many ounces?
Mamma didn't. As her voice
started to rise she held up the
glass and shouted "this size!"
"Now mix it all together
until it feels right," she said,
determined to go on.
At that point, I just couldn't
resist and asked, "What does
'right' feel like?"
Well, she threw her hands
up in desperation and said,
"Don't say another word. You
ask too many questions.
Watch what I do and DO it."
In most traditional cooking,
you have to feel when it's
right. I've taken that feel and
tried to put it into measure-
ments for you in all the family
recipes I have given you.

Team looks to continue winning ways


Tigers basketball squad is 5-0 so far


By John MacDonald
Macdonald@hometownnewsol.com
STUART -When search-
ing for role models for his
boys basketball team, Mar-
tin County head coach
Andre McIntyre doesn't
have to look far from the
top.
"There are a lot of super-
stars in sports who are not
winning," McIntyre said. "I
love Kevin Garnett. I use
him a lot. He leaves every-
thing on the floor and is so
unselfish.
"I enjoy quality. Now he
has a ring to prove it.
"Boston as a collective
group all made sacrifices.
They share the wealth and
are successful."
The same can be said for
the Tigers squad. After a
25-2 campaign that ended
with a loss to Fort Laud-
erdale-Dillard in the
Region 4-5A final, Martin
County hasn't skipped a
beat so far this season.
The team is 5-0 after dis-
mantling county rival
South'Fork 95-65 recently..
"I didn't expect that to
happen," McIntyre said of
the lopsided win. "When
we play South Fork I
expect a tough game.


"I'm not surprised,
though, because the kids
work extremely hard."
Tia Harris led the way for
Martin County with 19
points and eight assists.
The junior has gradually
become of the Tigers' team
leaders over the course of
his three years on varsity.
"He's been a pleasure to
watch," McIntyre said. "To
go from his freshman year
where he was insecure and
timid to last year where he
was finding his niche on
the team to now where he
is more of a vocal leader.
"He's an important piece
of the puzzle. He's the
point guard, our quarter-
back. It's important that
Tia plays up to his capabil-
ities and he's done that."
Quamain Foreman has
started off his senior sea-
son in impressive fashion
as well. The guard had 17
points and seven assists
against the Bulldogs.
"He's the consummate
team player," McIntyre'
said. "He does everything
we need him to do for the
team to be successful.
"A lot of people know
about his scoring, but he
also averaged 'in double
figures last year in


"He knew he had to up his game this year
andhe worked hard over the summer. He got
bigger and stronger and now it's paying off "

Andre Mclntyre
Martin County head coach on Casey Oldemoppen


rebounding."
With the graduation of
Ridge Graham, McIntyre
knew he needed several
players to step up to make
up for the loss. One of
those, Casey Oldemoppen,
has quickly become a scor-
ing threat.
"I knew there would
have to be one person to
make up for Ridge," McIn-
tyre said. "Last year we
eased Casey in and he
knew he didn't have to do
the bulk of the scoring or
the rebounding..
"He knew he had to up,
his game this year and he
worked hard over the sum-
mer. He got bigger and
stronger and now it's pay-
ing off."
The 6-foot-6 junior
added 14 points and eight
rebounds in the win over
South Fork, a trend McIn-
tyre expects to continue.
"He's averaging 12 points
and nine rebounds," McIn-
tyre: said. "He's an out-
standing shooter from 15
feet in. He's somebody the
opposition has to guard."
Also stepping into a larg-
er role this season has
been Mike Dotson. While
known for his defensive
prowess, as his four steals
against the Bulldogs would
attest, the senior guard
also added 11 points:
"He was a role player last
year," McIntyre said. "He's
one of the best defenders


on the Treasure Coast."
Part of Martin County's
success has been the con-
stant influx of young. tal-
ent. Case in point has been
Terrell Harris, who as a
sophomore is averaging a
double-double.

said. "He's already made

Grammy
From page B4
While naking these cookies, I
think I really learned what
right feels like.
Enjoy. See you next year.

TORDILLO (NIB)
The wine used for these
cookies was muscatel. If you
can't find it, use a slightly
sweet white wine or a dry
white wine, such as chablis or
Chardonnay, mixed with 1
teaspoon of sugar.
4 cups all purpose flour
1/2-cup extra virgin olive
oil, warmed slightly in the
microwave
3/4-cup wine
Canola oil, enough to fill a
medium saucepan
halfway
1 cup honey
1-1/2 tablespoons sugar
Multi-colored candy
sprinkles


Using the dough hook on
your electric mixer or a food
processor, mix first three
ingredients together.. Place
dough on cutting board and
knead for about 5 minutes
until smooth and silky.
Break off small pieces of
dough and rollinto a cylinder
about 1/2-inch wide and 2-
inches long. Place a thumb
(or three fingers) in center of
cylinder and press dough
down firmly as you push
forward then towards you,
causing the cylinder to curl
and look somewhat like a
seashell.
Fry cookies a few at a time
until golden. Drain on paper
towels.
In medium saucepan, bring
honey and sugar to a boil,
lower heat and simmer for 5
minutes. Add cookies a few at
a time, turn to coat. Remove
to platter with a slotted
spoon. Dust with sprinkles.
Note: These cookies can be
made, fried and stored in an
airtight container for weeks.
Glaze them the day you're
ready to serve.

with his rebounding abili-
ty."
While last season ended
in disappointment, McIn-
tyre is hoping for a more
positive finish this year.
"We want to build on
last year," McIntyre said.
"Our goal is to make it to
the state championship.
"I know it's early on in
the year, but to.have five
kids averaging double fig-
ures in scoring, that's hard
to defend. We have to stay
unselfish.
"Spread the wealth,
that's what I tell the boys.
We're ranked No. 6 in the
state now. We're going to
keep riding it until it
stops."
