A3 Piper package calls for job creation, new investment County, state OK incentives for plane manufacturer BY WARREN KAGARISE Staff writer VERO BEACH - A $32 million incentive package for Piper Aircraft requires the company to increase its workforce by more than 200 employees and meet other benchmarks, officials said Monday, after almost a year of negotiations with the avi- ation company. Indian River County would contribute $12 mil- lion in three $4 million pay- ments to retain the plane manufacturer, according to terms of a package approved by the County Commission. Money from the general fund and other sources - rather than property tax revenue - will be used for the package. Enterprise Florida, the Fishing for answers, students explore lagoon BY WARREN KAGARISE Staff writer WABASSO ISLAND - By the time 100 Beach- land Elementary School fourth-graders reached the shore of the Indian River Lagoon last week, they knew about animals and plants that thrive there, and the ecological webs that bind them together. From the mangrove- lined shore, teams of fourth-graders headed into the lagoon, shuffling their feet to avoid step- ping on stingrays. Stand- ing waist-deep in the brackish water, students collected lagoon mud, and dipped nets beneath the surface, searching for signs of life. "It was wet, but it was cool," 10-year-old Gess- ner Pantley said. Held at the Environ- mental Learning Center, Lagoon Days draw stu- dents from across Indian River County for a day- long lesson about the estuary in their back- yards. By mid-May, fourth- graders from every public and private elementary school in Indian River County will participate in Lagoon Days. Holly Dill, executive director of the Environ- mental Learning Center, described the field trips as "fundamental to our mission" of education. Indian River County students also visit the Environmental Learning Center as first- and third- graders. Lessons from Lagoon Days have also been incorporated into Up Close & Ecological, a nature program for elect- ed officials. At Beachland Elemen- tary, located a few hun- dred yards from the Indi- an River Lagoon, students readied for the visit by studying the lagoon ecosystem. Fourth-grader Caleigh King, 9, described search- ing lagoon mud for organisms and finding brittle stars and tiny crabs. Activities included a mock archeological dig, in which students sifted through sand searching for shark teeth, and a sta- tion dedicated to Florida history. Students also learned about threats to the lagoon before wading in. Miles of canals crisscross- ing Indian River County send pollutants to the lagoon. Once pollutants reach the lagoon, they can become trapped in muck along the lagoon bottom, or cloud water and harm animals and plants. 0 See LAGOON, A13 BRINGING HOME HONORS This photograph, taken by staff photographer Cliff Partlow, took second place Best Original Color Photo- graph used in a news event at the 2008 AFCP Awards in Palm Springs, Calif., last weekend.

Afterward, Piper CEO Jim Bass said he would present the offer to the board of Piper's parent company, American Capital Strategies of Bethesda, Md. "It was a long negotiation and everybody operated with good faith," he said. "They worked hard." Penny Chandler, execu- tive director of the Indian River County Chamber of Commerce, said she was "hopeful that we'll hear something by the end of the week." Conditions of the agree- ment require Piper to increase its workforce, and repay portions of the incen- tive if the company's employment dips below benchmarks. "I feel like this is as risk- free as possible for our community," Commission- er Sandra Bowden said. "There absolutely are pro- tections for our communi- ty." In order to receive an ini- tial $4 million payment from Indian River County, Piper must add 51 full-time jobs and invest $15 million in product development. Other conditions for the initial payment require Piper to announce that its planned PiperJet will be designed and assembled in ,) See PIPER, A4 GETTING A HELPING HAND Cliff Partlow/staff photographer Eight-year-old Sheila DeOliveira, right, and her mom, Sasha Carrico, work on Sheila's tie-dye bandana at the 27th Annual Vero Beach Museum of Art Children's Art Festival Saturday, New addition helps nurses spot veins BY WARREN KAGARISE - Staff writer , VERO BEACH - A beam of green light shone onto a patient's hand, revealing an intricate network of veins beneath the skin. Instead of probing for a suitable vein, Indian River Medical Center nurse Cindy Vanek studied the square of flesh illuminated by green light. For Ms. Vanek and her colleagues, a VeinViewer, an advanced piece of imag- ing technology, has stream- lined treatment since its January arrival at IRMC. "Patients see this coming into the room and they just relax," said Ms. Vanek, IRMC's director of emer- gency services. "Children think this is really cool, too." Nurses, who nicknamed the piece of equipment "Veinessa," said the Vein- Viewer is especially helpful when inserting a needle into patients with thin skin. The equipment can show areas as deep as eight mil- limeters beneath the sur- face of the skin. "It has allowed us to locate hard-to-find veins," IRMC nurse Summer Mon- roe said. Using the imager, nurses find veins faster, and "that way we're not poking and I See VEINS, A15 1 � e4', - ~-a~--- I~-~--- ---~ Ipc--~---------�~~1;~5~~:;'"'irr1If 4II 1 HA - vIeroy Meac A" - * ..A Dachk East Coast Shutte Experts in Hurricane Shutters!

Very often people are unaware of problems with their wisdom teeth because they experience few or no symptoms. ; , To prevent these problems, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons often recommend that patients have their wisdom teeth removed before problems occur, preferably during young adulthood when teeth roots are small and chances of complications are minimal. The best way to determine if your teeth are likely to cause prob- lems is to schedule an appointment with Dr. Colgan. Dr. Colgan has the surgical training and experience to perform wisdom tooth surgery safely with IVanesthesia to make the proce- dure completely comfortable and stress free.

The May issue of Parents lists 10 resorts which meet criteria for affordable seven-night vacations, as well as resort amenities such as quality of children's pro- grams and variety of family activities. Top 10 resorts also scored points for beach and pool areas. Resorts on the list offer seven-night vacations from May to September for prices ranging from $129 a night to $500 a night, with most falling under $250 per night. Expenses listed were all-inclusive with activities and meals covered. "Our winners are practically rolling out the red car- pet for families on a tight budget," Sally Lee, Parents editor in chief, said April 23 in a news release. "Great kids' programs and perks are no longer exclusive to resorts with high price tags." Disney's Vero Beach Resort highlights the citrus- growing heritage of Indian River County, sea turtle conservation efforts and other themed exhibits. The resort opened in late 1995 as the first Disney resort outside of Lake Buena Vista or Anaheim, Calif. - the site of Walt Disney World and Disneyland, respectively. March unemployment tops 2007 figures INDIAN RIVER COUNTY - More than 3,000 Indian River County residents were unemployed in March, and recently released state figures show more than 1,100 jobless residents during March 2008 than dur- ing the same period in 2007. Overall, the jobless rate climbed to 6.2 percent, up from 4.4 percent in March 2007. Unemployment was also up from 0.2 percent from February 2008. State statistics show a 61,391-member Indian River County workforce. Overall, Florida's seasonally adjusted unemploy- ment rate for March 2008 was 4.9 percent, or 452,000 jobless out of a labor force of 9,215,000. March 2008 unemployment was 0.3 percent higher than February unemployment, and a 1.2 percent increase from employment levels during the same period a year earlier. March 2008 unemployment rate is the highest since February 2004, which was also 4.9 percent. Florida's unemployment rate remains below the 5.1 percent national rate.

Here are a couple of senti- mental jewelry stories I thought you would like before Mother's Day. Before we found out Gramma was -sick, my hus- band bought my Gramma's vintage 14KT White Gold 1CT Diamond Engagement Ring Set. He gave her $1000 for it. Months later, my Papau took me aside and told me that Gramma had made him promise to give us that money. She had set it aside for us. My Gramma passed away just a couple of weeks before my wedding day. We used the money to purchase all the flowers. So you see, she was there. She was all around us. My Grandma Mosier liked to go to garage sales. She took me to some once when I was 5, and gave me a quarter - thinking I would get a toy or book. I picked out a black enameled horse brooch with pearls. She tried to talk me out of getting it, saying 'That's too grown up -don't you want something else?", but that was what I really wanted, so, she let me get it. I now own 40+ brooches, most from the 30's- 50's, and wear them every day with everything from t-shirts to dressy attire. I always think of my Grandma (who passed to the other side in 1984) when I put them on. Yes, Grandma, that really is what I wanted - thank you.

Piper execu- tives must also submit an affidavit confirming cus- tomer orders for 75 single- engine jets. Once Piper agrees to keep operations in Vero Beach, the company will receive the first $4 million payment. For Piper to receive the second payment, the com- pany must invest $10.7 mil- lion in facilities and equip- ment, such as manufacturing tools, and create 152 full-time jobs. Piper would receive the money by December 2008, and the third payment by December 2009. Conditions attached to the third payment include a requirement for Piper to invest $21.3 million invest- ment in capital equipment and $20 million in product development, and add 19 full-time jobs. "In order to receive the total $12 million payments from the 'county, Piper is going to have to document an investment of over $41 million in Indian River County in product develop- ment, capital equipment and an additional couple hundred jobs from where they are today," county budget director Jason Brown said. As the largest private employer in Indian River County, Piper employs about 1,200 workers at its Vero Beach Municipal Air- port campus, an increase from 983 employees when the state opened negotia- tions last fall. Terms of the package require Piper to maintain an average annual Review From page A3 Florida's businesses and workforce," Monesia T.

Indian River County one of Florida's wealthiest INDIAN RIVER COUNTY - Two Treasure Coast counties topped Florida's salary of $46,500. Asked if he was worried about the impact of a nationwide economic downturn, Mr. Bass said Piper aircraft "are selling very well" because cus- tomers were tired of the has- sles associated with com- mercial airline flights. "Our customers tend to be recession-resistant, but not recession-proof," Mr. Bass said. Executives plan to announce a training pro- gram with Indian River Community College soon. "This offers our local employee base some real hope for good jobs in the future," Ms. Chandler said. Joe Baird, the county administrator and Indian River County's lead negotia- tor, said he would be approaching the five municipal councils within the next month, and asking officials to contribute to the package. Councils from four Indian River County municipalities agreed last fall to contribute to the package, but the Sebastian City Council balked. Indian River County unveiled its first incentive package to Piper last May - a $76.5 million offer. Throughout 2007, Piper also weighed offers from Albuquerque, N.M., and Oklahoma City.

Ma 2. 20 www.Hometown-11 OL,--m Rendering courtesy of Treasure Coast Community Health Treasure Coast Community Health, which opened its first facility in Fellsmere in 1996, plans to open a new health and dental clinic along Oslo Road in 2009. Clinic founded in Fellsmere plans Oslo Road expansion By WARREN KAGARISE Staff writer FELLSMERE - Since opening a new facility in 1996, Treasure Coast Com- munity Health grew, even- tually expanding into a medical center along 37th Street in Vero Beach. . Treasure Coast Commu- nity Health recently announced plans to grow further, by building a 10,000-square-foot health and dental clinic along Oslo Road. The facility is set to open in 2009. Don Loftus, " Treasure Coast Community Health's new CEO, described the planned expansion as exciting, saying it would allow his organization to provide care to a greater number of residents. T ''heT;': need' we're Q .T responding to is county- wide," he said last week. All told, Treasure Coast Community Health encompasses 46 employ- ees across both locations. The organization, which draws funding from com- petitive federal grants, emphasizes access to healthcare, and preven- tion. "The sooner you inter- vene, the better the proba- bility that their health sta- tus will remain positive and well for a longer period of time," Mr. Loftus said. Because the organization is set up to provide health and dental care for all patients, even those who cannot afford to pay for care, Treasure Coast Com- munity Health accepts any health insurance and charges patients on a slid- ing scale based on income. Treasure Coast Commu- nity Health also works with other agencies, such as the Indian River County Health Department and the Men- tal Health Association in Indian River County, to provide care. "We're not in competi- tion with others," Mr. Lof- tus said. "We're in competi- tion with disease." A 17-member board, which includes healthcare consumers from Treasure Coast Community Health's service area, helps shape policy. "What goes on here is very reality-based," said Mr. Loftus, who began work in late April at Trea- sure Coast Community Health. He has an extensive I See CLINIC, A15 POLICE REPORT Editor's note: This is a list of arrests, not convictions, and all arrestees are pre- sumed innocent unless or until proven guilty in a court of law.

Humiston Park should be kept as is We, the tax-payers who own Humiston Park, were denied the right for a referendum and a vote and I'd like to know how we can stop this. Should we sue the council members and the planning and zoning committee? All of this to satis- fy the millionaires. The city has no right to take away our property. What can we do? Kudos to the walk-ways in Vero Beach I went to Vero Beach to shop and was very impressed with the pedestrian walk-ways near the library. Fort Pierce should follow suit. Act like trash, pick up trash Recently, several articles were written ranting about litter problems. We have many people committing criminal acts within our community. These people rob us, harm us, com- mit property damage, take advantage of us and give our community a bad name. I think it's time to pay it back. The misdemeanor offenders get litter projects along with jail time. They wear a fluorescent T-shirt that states "I Love My Community and I'm Paying Back." Everyone will see them and this if not a lesson learned for them, at least it will ben- efit us. The message it speaks is "Act like trash then pick up trash." I would much rather see our tax dollars pay for supervision of a program like this that truly benefits us as a whole. More regarding the food stamp program We applied for food stamps on March 31, after my hus- * WWW.HOMETOWNNEWSOL.COM OMElbE- GAIrl SHOP, band lost his job. His employers bounced payroll checks in March 2008 and he ended up not getting paid for a month because the employer could not meet payroll. My husband was supposed to receive a two- week unem- ployment check from the State of Florida Unemployment Office. He got his first one-week check in April, not a two- week claim as stated. We got a letter from the Food Stamp office on April 23, stating that we make too much money for being both on unemployment compensation. My husband gets $167 per week and I get $186 per week, which averages less than $5 per hour. We have a reasonable mortgage that increased from $550 per month to $750 per month due to a homeowners ihsur- ance increase. We have no cell phones, a small vehicle pay- ment and auto and basic household bills. We can barely meet these basic needs. We do not need cable to survive. We do not eat out, take vacations or spend money on new luxury items. We've still got an old TV. and freeze leftovers for tight financial weeks, yet we were denied food stamps. ' 1 Thank you for not giving us temporary food assistance. Thank goodness we pre-paid our unemployment wages while working legally in Florida while illegal immigrants get food stamps somehow and insurance for their kids. We should revolt against the oil companies For years we have been driving around and filling up our tanks and didn't think about gas prices rising. The oil companies are sticking it to us with the high prices. We should have a gas-out day, when we just don't buy gas for the day. We should stick it to them like they've been sticking it to us. Why can't we do something about it? The middle class can't even survive anymore, never mind the people that have been struggling for a long time now. We should all get together and do something. Cancer still one of life's biggest medical mysteries almost missed an impor- tant anniversary a few weeks ago. I became an eight-year sur- vivor of breast cancer, and there was a time when it didn't seem possible that a minute would go by that I didn't think about it. People told me that it would change from the ele- phant in the living room that you bumped into all the time, to an end table that was there that you didn't think about too often. A friend is going through chemotherapy right now, and I have tried to reassure her that it will pass. It made me think about my experiences with the disease. When I was being treated in 2000 and had several emer- gency operations, I remember talking to one of my doctors in despair at everything that had gone wrong. I had never smoked, drank only an occa- sional glass of wine and was having so many complica- tions. We didn't know then that I had the autoimmune disorder lupus, which con- tributed to a lot of my prob- lems. He pointed out that I was invariably out of intensive care and off oxygen within 24 hours, and he told me he could show me patients still needing intensive care days later because their lungs and hearts were not as healthy as mine. He told me this to remind me that while there is no magic pill-that can prevent many diseases, there are things we can do to keep our bodies as healthy as possible so that we can fight illness if we need to. I have heard from people who are diagnosed with dis- eases like breast cancer, as I was, that they can't under- stand how this could happen because they take care of themselves. Unfortunately, breast can- cer is not part of an agreement that says you can't get it if you run daily, eat well and get plenty of rest. Yes, there is a growing body of evidence that doing those things may pre- vent breast cancer and other SHELLEY KOPPEL Alive and Well cancers, and you should do them for that reason and to prevent other diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. What you shouldn't do is are ritSd ! ,; -assume that-if-you-do--them,- We have realized that there you have some sort of "Get can be miracle drugs, but Out of Cancer Free" card. there can also be disasters like Most cancers are random acts thalidomide.. and not hereditary; we don't We have come a long way in know why they occur, and the treating many diseases, but truth is that at this time early where we onie thought a cure detection is still the best for cancer was dn the horizon, weapon we have. we have come to understand In the 1960s, DuPont had a that cancer is complex, thai slogan, "Better Living through the different types have differ- Chemistry," which was meant ent treatments, and that even to indicate all the wonderful the same type\f cancer may advances science was making respond differ tly in differ- and going to make to enhance ent people.

Sure, I see a lot of the same issues - problems like slow systems, virus-infected machines, and people just not knowing how to use their computers - but when it comes to trou- bleshooting in the work environment, there is much more pressure. You see, when someone calls me because their home computer is acting up, they usually aren't relying on their machine to make a living. When a small business calls me because their network is acting up, it can often mean that one or more people are not able to do their jobs until the problem is resolved. That can translate into massive amounts of pressure because what business wants to have a bunch of employees sitting around unable to work because the "computers are down?" Recently, I had a call from a small business that had a hard drive go bad on their server, and (as is common) they had no backup. What was on this hard drive? Well, all of their accounting data, all of their inter-office memos, all of their Word and Excel documents, etc., and boy were they upset! Now, one of the first questions that pops into your head may be "well, why wasn't there a back- up?" and although that is a good question, it's one of those things that is best left unsaid until after the problem is resolved. Asking the business owner why he didn't have a backup just puts him on the defensive and doesn't help at all in the task at hand, which is recovering the data. The fact is they thought they had a backup system in place, but no one had checked on it since it was set up, and it wasn't work- ing. Sure, it was set up to run, but every night it failed, and no one had SEAN MCCARTHY Compute This thought to check. But again, dwelling on that fact doesn't get us anywhere closer to our goal and just makes a tense situation even tenser. Just a few seconds into the call I knew that this was not going to be a "typical" service call. I could hear it in the voice; it was a bad situation. And since this was a hardware issue, I knew I wasn't going to be able to log in and fix it remotely - I was going to have to go on site, and I really had no idea what I was walking into (or whether I was going to be successful or not). And to add to the pressure, pretty much as soon as I walked in the door, everyone wanted to know "what went wrong?" and "how long is it going to take to fix?" Both are legitimate questions, but it does take time to assess the situation before I can answer anything. After an hour or so of troubleshooting and running different tests, I was able to determine that the drive was still intact (it wasn't making that horrible 'click" that hard drives often make: when they die), and all of the data was still visible on the drive; but I wasn't promising anything yet! Sure it was a good sign that I could see the data on the drive, but actually getting to the data was proving to be tricky. And it doesn't help when someone comes in and reminds me ) See COMPUTE, A7 Hometown News HometownNewsOL.com Published weekly by Hometown News, L.C., 1020 Old Dixie Highway, Vero Beach, FL 32960 Copyright � 2008, Hometown News, L.C.

But after a while and throwing everything I had at the problem, I was finally able to recover the data off the bad drive and re-image it onto a new one. Mission accomplished! So, what is the moral of the story? Well, the lesson I learned (and was able to convey this to the business owner after the data was recovered) was to never assume that your backup scheme is working proper- ly.

Last year, they decided to share their landscaping and gardening expertise with the general public. In March, they opened Orchid Island Botanicals. They offer many varieties of plants needed to create a home garden. Visiting Orchid Island Botanicals is a special treat compared to shopping t the grocery store or sorre other business. They have created a miniature botanical gar- den, complete with a xari- ety of flowers plants and trees, as well as birds and butterflies. And, as the name o their business implies, "we have a variety of orchids" Mrs. Hall said. The business provides everything the dc-it-you- selfer would want, ;he said. But they offer to make home visits and assist peo- ple in designing a home garden. Design consulta- tions are free. Orchid Island Botanical professionals hlp people decide what ;they can include in theft home gar- dens. "Just because you like it doesn't mean it will grow there," Mrs. Hall said. They also do landscaping services for those who aren't ready to do it them- selves or want assistance in actually" creating the gar- den. Just visiting Orchid Island can provide inspiration for people who want to start their own gardens. ""We welcome anybody who would like to take a stroll through the garden," ) See GARDEN, Al 1 Staff photo by Jay Meisel Sandy Hall, who co-owns Orchid Island Botanicals along with her husband, Tom, holds one of the butterflies in their butterfly garden.

With nearly 500 units, the company affords residents and businesses the chance to unload and secure many of their possessions in a range of storage containers for various needs. Smaller units, 5 feet wide and 5 feet long, are good for keeping office files and other small items. The largest ones can hold sever- al cars or a "house full of fur- niture," Mr. Cirrito said. And with climate control, the rooms are good for stor- ing delicate items, such as paintings. That's why for years, many residents have used the company just as they would a large attic, base- ment or garage for storing Christmas decorations and other seasonal items. For others, it's been the place to store workshop tools, pricey cars, recre- ational vehicles, boats, office furniture and com- mercial supplies. But the facility's managers acknowledge that there's plenty to choose from when it comes to meeting storage needs. The company, set on 3.5 acres, can accommodate 18-wheel trucks for com- mercial deliveries and pick- ups. It also features a U-Haul dealership that offers mov- ing trucks, trailers and equipment for do-it-your- self moves. What also sets it apart, Mr. Cirrito said, is" its ability to survive, through hurricanes, economic slow-downs and other difficulties facing the region. 'One of the biggest things that others don't offer is constant on-site manage- ment," Mr. Cirrito said. TIe U.S. 1 facility includes two apartments that are home to two employees. So during a hurricane, for instance, or at night, tenants can fed secure that there's always someone on site to secure -heir belongings in an emergency. "They ive here 24 hours," Mr. Cirrib said of the staff. "That's better security that any othe: way of doing security. The other places have electnnic security, but there's no security like on site management." ) See STORAGE, A1 STOP BACK INJURY IN CHILDREN!

"We're called Affordable Storage, because we're affordable. We're substan- tially cheaper than the com- petition on the larger units," he said. On smaller rooms, ten- ants can save up to 5 per- cent per month, and up to 10 percent on larger units, over competition storage companies, he added. And the company is cur- rently offering a special that allows tenants to occupy a storage unit rent-free for the first month. "We always run specials," Mr. Cirrito said. Affordable Storage's offices are open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Mondays to Satur- days and 9'a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday. The storage units open from 7 a.m. tO 7 p.m. daily.

Along the stroll, people encounter macaws and a butterfly garden, besides colorful flowers and a large variety of plants and shrubs. "The butterflies and the birds - they really like to take pictures of them," Mrs. Hall said. For this area, the Orchid Island Botanical butterfly garden is unique. Inside an enclosure, many different species of butterflies flutter about. Caterpillars eat leaves and grow into butterflies, and the cycle continues. "I thought it would be the coolest thing," Mrs. Hall said, about deciding to cre- ate a butterfly garden. Anyone who seeks help from the Halls can assured that they will receive knowledgeable, profession- al service. They have been designat- ed as Florida Certified Hor- ticultural Professionals by the Florida Nurseryman Growers' Association. To obtain the certifica- tion, they attended classes and passed an extensive test, Mrs. Hall said. She is also an Interna- tional Society of Arboricul- ture Certified arborist. The Halls have been pro- viding landscaping services for the past 15 years and have been residents of Indi- an River County for the more than 40 years. Orchid Island Botanicals is located at 7040 U.S. 1, north of Vero Beach. The telephone number is (772) 562-2280.

There are those who spend their lives dreaming of exotic places to see and discover and those who during their lives choose to travel to such places. Maybe it is your time to see the world, or at the least to get a taste of another continent, its people and its cultures. Cruise lines that offer "Around the World Voyages" or "Grand Voyages" have made a new surge of late, appealing to both the senior market as well as the "baby boomers." For the most part, it is the seniors who are sailing - they have the time (and the money) to leave home for 100 days or longer. Some parents are invest- ing in these cruises - choosing to sail with their children to give them a view of the world that cannot be found in their school's textbooks. Grandparents are also sailing with their grandchil- dren, not only to spend quality time with them, but also to give an adventure that they would not other- wise have because their parents cannot afford the time off from work. Either way, the kids can learn up close about geography, history, and the natural sciences, as well as touching upon various languages on a world PATTY TOPPA Travel columnist cruise. After Cunard introduced the first world cruise in 1922, the idea of traveling the world has grown in popularity. Over the last quarter of a century or so, many cruise lines have joined the ranks and offer world cruises with the option of choosing to sail the entire voyage or a segment or two. Most of the 2008 World Cruises either have ended or are about to. You would think that the ships do not get filled up - well, you would be wrong. For instance, the 2008 Princess Cruise sold out completely. The suites and balcony staterooms are the first to go. It has become a very popular way to travel. It is time to look at 2009 if you are interested in a world cruise, a segment, or a grand voyage. Here are some of your options Princess Cruises offers two world cruise options. Segments are not available, but they offer Connoisseur Cruises and Grand Adven- tures that sail from 20-36 days-" . .I * Tahitian Princess: 107- night cruise from Fort Lauderdale to Dover, England.

Have a starry week, everyone. - James Tucker SA feast fit for a king A perfect description of what you will find at Chef Lin's Asian Buffet The four buffet tables, three of them two-sided, the sushi bar, the Mongolian grill and barbecue grill boast more than 200 items daily. The salad table carried everything from fruit salad to cream puffs. There were slices of fresh watermelon, bananas bathed in fruit sauce, slices of apple pie and a cream pie. Chocolate pudding, ice cream and other confections were just waiting for you to get to the dessert part of the meal. The main tables carried oysters, crab legs, crispy crabs, frog legs, dumplings, fried dumplings, mussels, crispy shrimp, popcorn shrimp, coconut shrimp, fried fish, and white and fried rice. Tables were piled high with salmon steaks, sesame chicken, bourbon chicken, beef Wellington, glazed mushrooms, stuffed mush- rooms, vegetable lo mein, Chinese donuts and too many other things to mention. The Alaskan crab legs were the most popular piece on the buffet and were the most apt to be out at any given time. The staff works very hard to keep the tables all full and it is only a short wait before you have plenty more legs to dive into. The grills are a nice touch and they allow you to order other items when you come in. When we were there, the sign at the entrance encouraged you to order your rib eye steak in advance and they would make it a part of your buffet meal. I did not order anything from the grill, but there was a line of folks who did. The food is cooked in front of you and to your order. One of the interest- ing specials that they were preparing was Peking duck with pancakes. It was a constant stream of people in the buffet area, the plates were always being filled and the serving trays were always in a state of refilling. Sushi lovers can delight in the offer- ings of California rolls, Philadelphia rolls, tuna, and many other delicacies. Chef Lin takes great pride in his food and he continually monitors the buffets. If he sees that a food is not very popular, then he tries something different. If he sees that a food is pop- ular, then he makes sure the he car- ries that item at all times. Chef Lin recently purchased the building at 1850 U.S. 1 and is in the process of getting the buffet estab- lished. He has had a lot of success in the past with his restaurants and still has an Asian Buffet in Chattanooga, Tenn., that has received rave revues from diners in the area. Chef Lin's has a party room that can accommodate up to 80 of your closest friends. They offer a discount on parties over 6 and they offer spe- cials for those who wish to celebrate their birthdays with them. This wonderfully family friendly buffet is an excellent place to enjoy a lot of food at a reasonable price. There are three dining rooms so they never run out of room or food! Chef Lin's is open for lunch buffet Monday through Saturday from 11a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Dinner buffets are Monday through Saturday from 4 until 10 p.m. and Sunday all day. Senior discounts and kids meals are available.

Photo courtesy of P. Amaru Comedy From page BI offered to Natalie Wood, who declined because she had just finished another film and wanted to take a break. Paul Bratter is a pragmatic, sensible sort, while wife Corie is his'free-spirited opposite. Before long, the trials of their inadequate , and flawed apartment, as well as their divergent personalities, begin to take a toll. Add a pushy, oddball neighbor and regular visits from the bride's mother to the mix and it would seem that the young couple is doomed. The pressures felt GET RID OF YOUR RECESSION DEPRESSION AT FULL SERVICE LOUNGE v HAVE A MINI-WEEKENDER GETAWAY RIGHT HERE IN VERO BEACH I. J , J ~ by Core and Paul are heightened when Corie challenges her husband to cast aside his prim demeanor and join her for an impromptu barefoot walk in the park on a winter day. But Neil Simon has a knack for finding humor in even the most.trying situations, and the couple ultimately finds marital bliss. Ms. Hayward-Ridenour particularly likes playwright Neil Simon's use of language and universal situations. "I'm concentrating on his zippy dialogue. There are a lot of zinger lines. I'm adding some music and dance to it because I have a young cast (in the starring roles) who are playing their own age. So I'm using their youthfulness," Ms. Hay- ward-Ridenour said. She noted that the older cast members are seasoned actors who add much depth and balance to the produc- tion. "I'm centering on the language of Neil Simon and a lot of it is situational. This is one of his best-written shows. It's funny and charming," she said. As a musical backdrop to add to the light-heartedness and 1960s era depicted in the play, Ms. Hayward- Ridenour has chosen the music of Siron & Gar- funkel's "59t Street Bridge Song" (Feelin' Groovy) to lend an appropriate feeling. Ms. Hayward-Ridenour notes that Mr. Simon always focuses on the humorous side of life, even when situations are dicey. His ability to find the universally understood angst of life has been heralded by audiences and critics for decades. And .though the play is decades old, its theme and message still resonate with today's audiences. With her talented cast, and the addition of some music and dance, Ms. Hayward- Ridenour has taken Mr. Simon's genius and imbued it with added dimensions. Stephen Cembrinksi plays the part of Paul, while Dana Rogers assumes the role of wife Corie. Jo Giesecke is cast as Core's mother, Mrs. Banks, and Bob Niemyer takes the part of weird neighbor VictorVelasco. Rounding out the cast is Derek Gesin as a tired telephone repairman. Denise Lee is production manager; Jo-Ann Mattison is producer and Ann McCabe is set director. Back-stage duties are managed by Ann McCabe on costumes; Anne Talbot on props and Madelyn Rogers for hair and make- up. Crystal Corrigan serves as lighting consultant and Ed Dessareau handles sound.

Yes, cheese. And not your mass-produced, chemical- laced supermarket vari- eties, either, but rather American artisan cheeses from small, family-run dairies that patiently handcraft their cheeses with the finest ingredients using labor-intensive methods. Bodega Blue Artisan Cheese located at 2115 14th Ave. in historic downtown Vero Beach is dedicated to offering the best varieties of these cheese makers from whom owner Lynne Persinger buys directly. But there is much more going on at this wonderful, funky, aromatic cafe. At Bodega Blue, you may certainly say, "cheese." But you can also say, "micro brews" or "wine," or "chocolate" or "food" or even "music." It is all there in great profusion. This veteran food and beverage executive from some of the nation's most luxurious resorts including the Ritz Carlton, Opryland, the Greenbriar and the Hobe Sound Golf Club has not only nurtured her customers' love of fine cheese, but has also given local musicians a venue to perform. Bodega Blue customers can indulge their gustatory senses as they enjoy some truly fine live performers who appear on weekends. Shortly after opening her doors, the daughter-in-law of a Delta blues musi- cian/singer came by and inquired whether Bodega Blue would consider becoming a venue for musicians. Ms. Persinger liked the idea and Sebastian resi- dent and Delta blues master Ernie Southern became the first performer to play at Bodega Blue. The association has continued and Bodega blue is a frequent stop on Mr. Southern's tours of local entertainment spots. Mr. Southern's wife, Franni Howe-Southern, has booked talent throughout Florida for several decades and works with Ms. Persinger to bring a variety of performing talent to Bodega Blue. "One of the biggest things going forward is my alliance with Franni and the music. I try to be as loyal to people as I can," Ms. Persinger said. Though Lynn Ms. Persinger Persinger did not set out to become an enter- tainment impresario, she nonetheless has given several local musicians a chance to be heard. Popular local quartet Old Barber Bridge gave its first performance at Bodega Blue and Ms. Persinger recently hosted blues great John Mooney who packed Bodega Blue for a night of rousing Delta Blues/New Orleans music. Music lovers will unquestionably continue to enjoy fine talent, which is showcased on the weekends. But come hungry. Walking through the door of Bodega Blue gives your olfactory and visual senses a real treat. A myriad of aromas wafts - cheese, soup of the day, individual pizzas baking and other less-easily identifiable but no less wondrous smells. You feel a smile beginning to form on your face. There is color. Every- where. On the walls there is the most arresting shade of periwinkle blue - the bluish-violet shade that brings to mind Elizabeth Taylor's eyes.

That smile is broadening. White, billowing sail-like fabric is hung from the ceilings to enshroud the overhead lights and cast a diffused glow. Large, colorful and fanciful artworks lend a whimsical decor. The name Bodega Blue came from Bodega Bay north of San Francisco - an area where many artisan cheeses are made and was the location for the filming of Alfred Hitchcock's classic "The Birds," Ms. Persinger said. While Bodega Blue carries the best in epicure- an delights, this is clearly no stodgy, snobby cafe. And if there is an attitude prevalent, it is one of fun and mirth and, except for the food and beverage, of not taking yourself too very seriously. With respect to the decor, Ms. Persinger admits, "things don't match in here." And that is a good thing. Even a first-time customer feels comfortable and welcome here thanks to the surroundings and friendly, helpful staff. Ft.

But that debut was per- ilously timed as it turned out. The concept of a.. cheese shop was a novelty inVero Beach and Ms. Persinger and her husband (who is executive chef at the Orchid Island Golf & Beach Club) did not know if customers would patronize the store. "We stocked what we liked in here and thought if it didn't work out we'd eat and drink our way through it all! We had gotten 200 pounds of cheese in on Friday and Hurricane Jeanne hit on Saturday," Ms. Persinger said. Power was lost and she and her husband scram- bled to pack up the cheese in ice-filled coolers to keep it from spoiling.

Accreditation signifies excellence to the museum community, to govern- ments, funders, outside agencies, and those that visit the museum. Accreditation brings national recognition to a museum for its commit- ment to excellence, accountability, high pro- fessional standards, and continues institutional improvement. The accred- itation program is the field's primary vehicle for quality assurance, self-reg- ulation, and public accountability. IT strengthens the museum profession by promoting practices that enable lead- ers to make informed deci- sions, allocate resources wisely and remain finan- cially and ethically accountable in order to provide the best possible service to the public. The Vero Beach Museum is one of 47 museums accredited in Florida. To earn accreditation, a museum must first con- duct a year of self-study, and then undergo a site visit by a team of peer reviewers. The time it takes is more than balanced be what the museum's staff and board gain from the process, which include the opportunity for self analy- sis and programmatic evaluation, sat Lucinda Gedeon, Museum direc- tor/CEO. The Vero Beach Museum of Art opened to the public in 1986. It provides cultur- al leadership and enrich- ment for the public through educational stu- dio art and humanities programs. Museum exhibits are open Monday - Saturday, from 10 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. and Sundays from 1 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. It is closed on Mondays from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Earth Day is a day we can look around and see all the wonders that nature has bestowed on us. It is also a great time to think about how we can protect and beautify our environment. This task can be as simple as planting a single tree to beautify your yard, planting a colorful garden for all to enjoy on your property, or even donating your time to a local garden club td help beautify an area of your city or town. The idea of Earth Day was initiated in 1962 as a way to make people aware of what is going on in our environment. It all started with President John E Kennedy in 1963, when he took a five-day conservation tour of our nation. The first official Earth Day was on April 22, 1970. Since then, Earth Day has blossomed into a national celebration where people initiate ideas that can help make our environment more eye appealing and a better place to live. With all the hype on how we are depleting our cypress forests by the use of cypress mulch, there are many other natural alternatives we can use that are functional and will also save our natural resources. One thing \e cause that we all have plenty of is natural grass clippings. That's right; Mental health is focus of month, ,,. JOE ZELENAK Garden Nook grass clippings can make an excellent mulching material that you can use on almost all your plants and flowers. You do need to be sure, however, that your turf has not been recently treated with any herbicides. The herbicides may damage some of your more tender plants. Place the clippings around your plants in layers. Make each of your layers thin, and do not make it too thick, as the mulch will produce a smell. Apply the next thin layer after the initial layer has been allowed to dry out. As the clippings decompose, they will produce a fertilizing effect on your plants. The clippings tend to add nutrients back to the soil as they decay and work their way into the dirt. Another great natural mulching material is pine needles. This material is not suitable for all plants but it is great for the majority of plants we use in this part of Florida. You can use pine clippings on any acid loving plants. This list can include ixoria, hibiscus, bottlebrush, azalea, gardenia, junipers, and banana trees, along with many other plants that require a high acid content in the soil. Not only do many of these natural remedies save resources, they also save you money. Doing large areas of your yard with commercial products can cost a fortune. With the money you save on mulching materials, you will be able to purchase many more colorful flowers! Most of your favorite plants that you have in your yard can be easily propagated into new plants without having to buy new plants. Roses are a great example of this. In the spring, you can choose rose cuttings that are healthy and green, and they will make good candidates for cuttings. Using a sharp knife, cut off the soft tip of the cane, and then cut it into 4- to 5-inch pieces. Each piece should have at least two nodes and some leaves. Strip off the bottom leaves to expose a node, then plant the cutting in moist soil, and keep it in bright shade and high humidity. You can use containers covered with plastic bags or set them in the ground in the shade and cover them with plastic jugs. Either method should work Miss PLAYING WITH YOUR GRANDCHILDREN?, 772-778-2009 David W. Griffin, MD.

Mother's Day is just around the corner, and Father's Day is a quick left after that. Most golfers are difficult to buy presents for. Toss in the fact that it's mom or dad and things can get quite confusing. However, gifts are available for the moms and dads in our lives, and it doesn't have to be a tie or oven mitts with golf balls on it. Every golfer could benefit from knowing the yardage to the pin or to a hazard. Leupold, America's Optic Authority (www.leupold.com), just introduced a pair of GX Rangefinders. Both units feature PinHunter technolo- gy to find the pin against any background. It's like having your own caddie giving you yardages to everything on the hole. These units are also legal for everyday and tournament play. How would that golfer in your life like his or her own swing coach? The new ShotWatch (www.shot- watch.com) makes this possible. The device fits on your wrist, just like your regular timepiece, and uses advanced circuitry guided by servo-motors and sensors to give you instant feedback when you deviate from your ideal grip pres- sure, speed, and tempo. The feedback aids muscle memory and helps keep you in a consistent swing groove. JAMES STAMMER Golf columnist Golfers are always in need of replacing their grips. Most grips wear out within a season or so and should be replaced. Instead of those boring, over-the-counter grips, why not get personal- ized ones for that special golfer?Being outside in the sun playing golf can ruin your eyes. Rudy Project (www. rudyprojectusa.com) offers six different sunglass frames in a wide variety of colors and sizes to match anyone's style. The entire line features frames without a lower rim on the glass, eliminating the usual visual distraction. The company's Golf 100 lens was tailored to accom- modate for grass reflecting only a low amount of light, while controlling the low- level blue and middle-range light. The result is a pair of sunglasses that helps show the subtle breaks on greens and allows you to better see the depth of field on all golf shots. The ImpactX Photocromic lens offers all the assets of the Golf 100 optics but with photochromic properties. In seconds, the lens can adjust to any light condition, transmitting 13 to 38 percent of the available light to the eye. We'd all love to improve our game. Sklz Golf (www.sklz.com) has devel- oped an entire line of training aids for golfers. The Rick Smith signature series features products designed specifically to increase your distance and accuracy and perfect and hone your putting stroke. The newest product, the Gyro Swing, introduced at last year's instant gratification ATNkingPhoneBook.corr� co _WDP-4725.B.OLOIJ N HARBOR BRANCH AFORDABE "Fore Inventors Only" show on the Golf Channel, is the only training aid that truly gives golfers the "feel" of an ideal swing, forcing them to stay on the correct plane with a perfectly timed release. Most ladies dislike taking their purse with them to the course. Now, they can be fashionably unencumbered on the golf course. The new cabretta leather zippered pouch from Fairway Skins Company (www.fair- wayskins.com) is small and elegant, just 4-inches-by- five-inches, for practical use during a round. Each pouch, with an easy zipper, features a floral image and contrasting-color lining. The web loop with split ting on the side enables the flower to hang vertically from a golf bag. It's the perfect size for those few small items that you need to take with you. James Stammer has been an avid golfer and golf enthusiast for 30 years. He hosts the Tuesday Night Golf Show on WPSL 1590-AM radio station. BEAUTY TIPS FROM Spa by Kim, Cheryl and Debi, Stylists WOMAN GO BACK TO THEIR ROOTS If this spring's fashion runway mod- els are any indication (and we all know that they are), dark hair is very much back in vogue. This should come as welcome news to women who are tired of hearing that blondes have all the fun. Whether they do or not, it seems that brunettes are taken more seri- ously. Surveys show that brunettes are considered to be trustworthy and responsible. Many women say that they go back to their original dark color for professional reasons. However they are perceived, natu- ral brunettes are going back to their roots while blondes are opting for deeper shades. Dark hair appears shiny and healthy, and just about everybody is taking notice. Are you ready to get back to your roots? The expert colorists at our salon can help you get back to your natural dark hair color, or create a gorgeous, natural look- ing dark shade with multi-dimen- sional highlights or lowlights. We also provide deep-conditioning hair and scalp spa treatments to keep your hair soft, shiny, and healthy. Hair fashions are our passion, and we look forward to working with you.

"I was thinking, God we're up 5- 0, I have to keep them off the bases and let my defense do its job." Whittington cruised the rest of the way, setting up a rematch with Treasure Coast rival South Fork in the Region 4-5A quarterfinal. The Bull- dogs defeated the Sharks ear- lier in the season, but with much more on the line this time, Whittington once again found herself at the forefront being asked to deliver a lights- out performance. After keeping South Fork off the scoreboard in the first, Whittington was the benefici- ary of some timely hitting in the latter half of the inning. Megan Biegel's two-run double to the left-center gap gave Whittington and the Sharks the early advantage. The lead grew smaller in the top of the third inning, as Whittington gave up a solo home run to South Fork's Emily McNutt. The Sharks answered with a run in the bottom of the inning to pull ahead 3-1. In the fifth, Whittington surren- dered a triple to fellow hurler Haylee Land which led to a run, but Sebastian River regained its two-run bulge with a score in its half of the inning. "Ever since the second Bay- side game, we got real hot with our hitting," Whittington said. Sebastian River maintained the advantage going into the seventh inning before Whit- tington almost became unglued. She gave up a single and then proceeded to throw two wild pitches to allow the runner to move to third. South Fork's Shelby Frates singled in a run to make it 4-3. Land followed with another single and moments later the runners were in scoring posi- tion with just one out. Whittington settled down, getting the final two hitters to give Sebastian River its first regional win since 2003. "It was pretty intense," Whit- tington said. "Our defense stayed strong and hung on in the last inning." Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said in Sebastian's next game. Taking on W.T. Dwyer in the Region 4-5A semifinal, the Sharks commit- ted four errors, becoming unhinged after Dwyer's head coach was tossed after disput- ing an umpire's ruling. "When he got thrown out, it got to me," Whittington said. "The pressure got to me, I'm not going to lie. "He got into our heads." In the game, Whittington (9- 7) allowed just four hits, but Dwyer emerged with a 2-1 win. Despite the loss, the Sharks finished at 18-9 and a district crown. "I didn't think we'd get as far as we did," Whittington said. "I really wanted to win dis- tricts. "No one expected us to do it. We earned it and we deserved it."

Molly Whittington, Sebast- ian's ace pitcher, made sure the Bears stayed that way. The sophomore pitched the greatest game of her young career, no-hitting Bayside for a complete game shutout and helping the Sharks to its sec- ond district title in three years. "I was feeling pretty good before the game," Whittington said. "I stayed hot and that was good." While Whittington was doing her part, Sebastian's offense came alive with two runs in the second inning, fol- lowed by another pair in the third. The Sharks added another score in the fifth for a surprising five-run lead over the top-seeded team in the tournament. Given the big lead, Whitting- ton set out to get the game's URGENT CARE WEST ' We Now Accept BC/BS We gladly accept United, Beechstreet, First Health, Humana, Great-West, Tricare, Champus, ECN / EMI & all Worker's Comp Insurances 2050 40th Ave Vero Beach 564-0175 Fax: 770-1171 YOUTH ACTIVITIES & SPORTS e Sebastian pitcher is a Shark on the mound 2-30BAGINS - ~-------~I--- --- ~ ~_ ~ ~pa -12 * ero Beach Friday, May 2, 2008 Hometown News Lr)()K KIT,)L,~ C i4 www.HometownNewsOL.com Friday Mav 2. 2008 -ou y --- I, i -.--- Vero Beach * B13 we maintain current photographs and videos.
