SEBASTIAN — Four can- didates are competing for two seats on Sebastian City Council. Jim Hill, current mayor of Sebastian, is in the race along with first-time candi- dates Tim Slaven and Jerome Adams and busi- nessman, Damien Gilliams. Mr. Slaven and Mayor Hill are featured in this article. Tim Slaven Tim Slaven is a first-time candidate and Department of Children and Families employee. He has lived in Sebastian for close to seven years and was attracted to the area because of the small, hometown feel and natural beauty, he said. Preserving that quality of life and environment is important to Mr. Slaven, but he isn’t all talk and pipe dreams. While he hasn’t served in an elected position before, Mr. Slaven was on the city budget advisory committee last year and is very familiar with the numbers and the city budget. His analysis of the budget is that all the cuts that have been made were the ones that could be made. “We went over that with a fine-tooth comb,” Mr. Slaven said. Should he be elected, he would continue to study the budget with city staff to see what else can be done to cut down on costs as the year progresses, but also make sure the money that is available is spent wisely. Areas he would like to see the council address include the business corridor on County Road 512, ensuring it has what it needs to pros- per and flourish. Bringing in jobs, or a focus on economic devel- opment, will help improve Sebastian’s quality of life and make for a happier and healthier community, Mr. Slaven said. Jim Hill Mayor Jim Hill believes Chamber celebrates local businesses INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — Last week during indus- try appreciation week, sev- eral businesses were recog- nized by the Indian River County Chamber of Com- merce for their achieve- ments. A new category, Entrepre- neur of the Year, was added this year to the industry awards event held by the chamber on Sept. 20 at the Indian River State College Richardson Center. The award was given to True Colors Salon and Spa, which has grown from seven employees in 2008 to 16 employees in 2011. The salon and spa has experi- enced 40 percent annual growth for the past three years and the owners are looking to grow even more. Helene Caseltine, eco- nomic development direc- tor for the chamber, said the awards presentation was quite exciting and every seat was filled. The new category received many nominations and the decision was hard to make, she said. “We have a lot of very small businesses here in Indian River County.

One thing many people forget when they look at the district’s budget, is that weather and disease transmission are very uncertain and difficult to predict, Ms. Broda said. The board feels the responsibility is on them to budget in case of a pub- lic health emergency and so each year, there is a $345,000 line item for three treatments of aerial insecticides, which looks like a large amount, but protecting the public health is their job, Ms. Broda said. In an effort to be wise with taxpayer dollars, the district contracts out work to the private sector, she said. Ms. Broda said she believes the district has done a good job of mos- quito control, even though it is expensive, by trying to target the mos- quitos before they become adults, in the lar- vae stage in watery, marshy places in the county. One area Ms. Broda said she would like to see improved is the district’s website information and accessibility and to increase its amount of public outreach pro- grams.

the downward spiral of theeconomy is slowing andfinancially the communityis close to the basementand the council as a wholehas been successful inmaintaining city services atan expected level and havekept taxes down.

“I have a tremendousamount of experience onSebastian City Council andworking with neighboringcommunities in IndianRiver County,” Mayor Hillsaid.

Reducing spending, con-solidating departments,shrinking staff and imple-menting furlough dayshave put the city in a goodplace, Mayor Hill said.

“I think we’re in a prettygood place, finding the bal-ance for the leanest gov-ernment and high qualityof life,” he said.

In the early 2000s, thecity drainage system wasthe primary topic of con-

versation, but now it’srarely spoken of becausethe city was able toimprove the system and allbut eliminate floodingissues, Mayor Hill said.

Earlier this year, atremendous rain eventunrelated to a hurricanecaused flooding in VeroBeach and various placesin unincorporated countylands and made the news,but there was no mentionof Sebastian at all, he said.

“Sebastian didn’t have aflooding problem. What

we’re doing in regard todrainage is proving benefi-cial,” Mayor Hill said.

Budget issues will alwaysbe around and people willbe divided on what tospend money on, butMayor Hill said he standsby the council’s decisionfor the betterment of thecity.

“We hadn’t raised our(storm water) rates in 11years and now we’veadjusted that rate $1 permonth. These are thingsthat are not easy to do togenerate revenue, but nec-essary to improve the city,”Mayor Hill said.

The working waterfrontproject, an area the councilhas high hopes for bringingin traffic and revenue to thearea, is on point and mov-ing forward, he said.

The first part of the proj-ect, renovations to the for-mer Hurricane Harbor siteand opening a fish marketand the opening and clos-ing of a restaurant, cameabout so quickly it seemslike the rest of the project isdragging.

Turning the blighted areainto a productive andvibrant area is worth thetime and money spent onit, Mayor Hill said.

“The last thing they needto do is scuttle the project,”Mayor Hill said.

Volunteers show caring heartsLauren Martin of theChurch of Latter DaySaints and seven othervolunteers from the churchhelped spruce up theSebastian Boys and GirlsClub as part of the UnitedWay’s Day of Caring allover Indian River County.Volunteers fanned outacross the county to helppaint, landscape and cleanhomes and businesses.

Think about MedicareAs a registered nurse caring for senior citizens (both

Republican and Democrat), for the past 15 years, I haveheard a lot of complaints about a lot of things, but theonly complaint I have ever heard about Medicare was thedonut hole, which our president has fixed.

Remember, a vote for Obama is a vote for Medicare.Who knows what Romney would do to our Medicare, notto mention Social Security. Beware the wolf in sheep’s'clothing

Bravo doctorsI would like to comment on two Martin Memorial

Health Care doctors in Hobe Sound who really care aboutthe health of me and my husband.

Dr. Keller and Dr. Hirt take the time to talk to us and letus know exactly what needs to be done with our health-care. I would also like to say also that their staff is wonder-ful and very caring, as well. So refreshing! Thank you.

More about leaving the Treasure CoastJust a few facts for those who are leaving us. No. 1.The majority of people living on the Treasure Coast

are not southerners, but are from the northeast. No.2. Southerners are generally friendly, hospitable and

helpful. We don't tailgate or shout obscenities because thedriver in front of us is unwilling to break the law and speedover the posted limit. We tend to strike up a conversationwith strangers while in line at the post office, grocery store,etc.

No.3. We tend to make eye contact with people becauseto not do so is a sign of someone with something up theirsleeve.

No. 4. A good number of us are college educated, andnot "just a bunch of hillbilly rednecks" like Hollywoodwould have you think.

No. 5. I tend to see more segregation and bigoted atti-tudes "up north" than I ever saw in the south.

So before you jump on the old bandwagon to slam asoutherner, get to know one. The Treasure Coast is the wayit is because the northeasterners bring their poor atti-tudes, always in a rush, me first and liberal politics withthem when they move here.

Hey, if you don't like it, please, move back home, I’msure you'll fit right in!

What about a third choice?I find it fascinating that Americans are satisfied with

having just two choices when it comes to electing an indi-vidual for the most powerful position on the planet. Wouldyou be satisfied if your only choices in automobiles were ablack Ford or a green Chevy?

How would you react if the government decided thatyou could only choose between two cellular phone serviceproviders or two grocery store chains?

I’d be willing to bet that the entire country would beready to revolt. So why only two choices for president?Well, I’ll tell you why.

The Democrats and Republicans have a monopoly onthe American political system and they aren’t about toloosen their grip any time soon unless we the peopledemand that they allow other voices to be heard.

Another choice that all Americans will have on their bal-lots in November is Gov. Gary Johnson and Judge Jim Gray,his running mate. They are the Libertarian candidates forpresident and vice president. Now, you’re probably shak-ing your head asking who the heck is Gary Johnson? Well,he’s the former two-term governor of New Mexico whovetoed 750 bills while in office, more than all of the other49 governors combined. He left office with a budget sur-plus by shrinking government and lowering taxes. He’s atrue entrepreneur having started a handyman businessthat grew to employ 1,000 people.

Mr. Johnson will be on the ballot in all 50 states but youcertainly wouldn’t know that by watching the eveningnews because the mainstream media refuses to cover hiscandidacy and his campaign.

I implore you to take a few minutes and visit his websiteat www.GaryJohnson2012.com. You may just be very pleas-antly surprised at what you find.

Not saying muchGov. Romney has been talking a great deal over the past

several months but has said very little as to what he woulddo as president.

He talks about lowering taxes but does not say what loopholes he would close. He talks about lowering the debt butdoes not say exactly how he will do it. He talks about theneed to deal with entitlements but does not say exactlywhat action he would take to address entitlements.

He states he will repeal Obama care but now indicateshe will keep some parts of Obama care but again does notsay what parts he would keep.

The devil is in the details. Gov. Romney does not providethe details. This clearly indicates the big money contribu-tors to Gov. Romney’s campaign will provide the details asto the action to be taken once he is elected.

In summary, Gov. Romney talks a lot but says very little.

Why we fail

Half of Americans pay no federal income tax. They haveno incentive to have careful, prudent leadership in Wash-ington. They enjoy the government largess. The other halfpay the bills. This is how a country fails.

There's a lesson here for everyone who loves the U.S.A.Remember on Nov. 6.

Follow Europe

Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain and Italy have shownthe way. They have given us an insight into how socialistgovernments can overspend and drive their economies tothe precipice. It's not pretty.

Unfortunately, big spenders in Washington refuse toread the warning signs. The highway to bankruptcy isclearly marked. For the sake of the next generation, let'snot take that path.

Well, it’s that time ofthe month again;it’s bill paying time.

Have you ever noticed howclose the end of the monthis to the beginning of themonth?

The monthly ritual seemsto never end but it hasbecome worlds easier withcomputers, the Internetand online bill payingservices that most utilitieshave added to their sys-tems.

Here’s the way life used towork every month: the billswould come in at thebeginning of the month (asthey still do) and then, I’dgo through each one withthe checkbook and a bookof stamps. I’d write a check,write it in the check book,stick it in the envelopealong with that month’spayment stub, write myreturn address on theoutside of the envelope,stick a stamp on it and dropit in the mail. Every monthlike clockwork, it was achore that consumed abunch of stamps, checks,time and usually resulted ina little writer’s cramp.

How are things now?Well, the bills still come in

every month like clockworkbut the hassle of writingchecks and dropping themin the mail is almost a thingof the past. Sure, the choreof sitting down and “payingthe bills” is still there, butwith my trusty pc and myInternet connection, I canget the job knocked out inhalf the time that it used totake and I can get a book ofstamps to last months now.

So, what’s involved? Well,it helps to have a credit card(or a “check card” with theVisa logo that most banksare happy to provide), acomputer and an Internetconnection. It also helps toknow the web addresses ofthe companies that youwish to pay online, but thenice thing about that is theyusually print the webaddress somewhere righton your monthly statement.

Connect to the Internetand navigate to the compa-nies’ website whose bill youare trying to pay and followthe onscreen instructions.Hint: you will usually find alink that says “pay online.”Follow that link and you areon your way.

Now, here’s the catch;

each website is setupdifferent from the others soyou kind of have to thinkabout what you are trying todo on each site and followtheir particular set of links.

Some sites may have yousign up first; that is to createan account on their websitefirst before you can payyour bill online, but youonly have to do that the firsttime; once the account iscreated, the next monthwhen you log in (rememberthe username and pass-word when you set it up) allof your information fromthe last time should bealready there.

Not comfortable using acredit card online? Well, youare actually safer with creditcard orders because thebank spends an enormousamount of resourcespreventing fraud and willusually back you up ifsomething does go wrongbut hey, I can understandthe worry. In lieu of a creditcard, many sites will allowfor electronic fund transfersby asking for your bankaccount and routingnumbers (is that reallysafer?) or you may evenhave luck checking to see ifyour bank’s online systemallows for web-based billpay to the companies youpay each month. Mostonline banking systemsthese days provide for it andif they don’t, you can alsocheck PayPal. They’ve beenoffering a bill-pay servicefor a while and you may besurprised at who you canuse them with.

Let’s go back to payingthe bills individually. Let’ssee, you can navigate towww.fpl.com to pay yourelectric bill. You have to setup an account online first,but then every month, logback in and make a pay-ment.

Do you have a telephonesetup through AT&T? Youcan go to www.att.com andsign up for online bill paythere. Again, you have to setup an account the first timebut every time after that;

MELBOURNE - StanGoldfarb grew tired ofwitnessing individuals receiveless than they deserved whenselling their prized possessions.

"Quite frankly, people weregetting ripped off," said Mr.Goldfarb, who owns SquareDeal Gold Buyers with hispartner, JR Bott. "There was aneed for a trustworthy gold-buying business in the area."

So three years ago, SquareDeal Gold Buyers beganbuilding its business on trust inthe Melbourne Square Mall.

"Based on that, we've grownour business tremendously,"Mr. Goldfarb said. "All of thetrust that we've built over twoand a half years has led us to bethe No. 1 gold buyer in BrevardCounty."

Now it is located in theChase building adjacent to themall, in Suite 102 West of 1990W. New Haven Ave.

"Our concern is somepeople think we're out ofbusiness right now," Mr.Goldfarb said. "We are here

with the same great people andthe same service."

In its new location, SquareDeal Gold Buyers ensuressafety among its customers withthe installation of 14 camerasthat monitor all transactionsmade, as well as a securedentrance to the office itself.

To prevent fraud andundervaluing pieces, trainedappraisers evaluate karatpurities in front of the clientsby performing various tests.

"We talk to people abouttheir jewelry and its worth,"Mr. Goldfarb said. "We willcheck the exact karat puritiesand current spot market price.We will explain how themarket and process works,what types of equipment weuse for testing and answer anyquestions they may have."

And when it's decisiontime, Mr. Goldfarb said there

is no pressure."We do not attempt

to pressure our clientsto sell, but in fact doour best to educate ourclients on the value oftheir items so they cansee why we offer whatwe do," he said.

He said when offering cashfor a client's gold, Square DealGold Buyers can offer up to 30percent higher than other,similar businesses. On oneoccasion, he offered a woman$1,400 for a piece that she wasgoing to sell for $250 to amail-away cash-for-goldcompany.

"You have some people thattry to rip people off and makea living," he said. "Our plan isa cumulative thing. We'd ratherhave many customers whocontribute a little bit each.

"We're a for-profit business,

but we're local guys," He said."The money stays in Brevard.We're not mailing it away. Allour employees are fromBrevard. It's a really goodbusiness model."

"This is a professionalatmosphere for gold buyers,and we want to expand onthat," he said.

Square Deal Gold Buyers isopen from 9:30 a.m. to 6:30p.m. Monday throughSaturday, and from 10 a.m. to5 p.m. on Sunday.

Hello smart shoppers.The holidays arearound the corner,

so I must repeat thisamazing cake for specialoccasions in both theoriginal and the low-fatversion.

I found the recipe in amagazine when I was ateenager. It was so intrigu-ing I saved it. Years later Imade it for my father'sbirthday. The fact that hedidn't like cake in any shapeor form didn't enter thepicture.

My granddaughter,Christy, another one whodoesn't like cake, requestedit for her birthday. She wasforewarned and promisedshe would eat it, which shedid.

This cake is a project, butfor a special occasion, youcan just count on theapplause. Enjoy, see younext week.

This cake is large andcan't be changed; leftoversfreeze great. You can cut thefat and cholesterol if you

use my recipe for a fat- andcholesterol-free cake and bysubstituting low-fat or fat-free whipped topping forthe heavy cream.

I will repeat the recipe fora fat and cholesterol freecake for those of you whomissed it and then go ontothe recipe in its originalform.

FFAATT- AN- AND D CCHHOOLELESTESTERROOL-FL-FRREEEECCAKE AKE

When using a cake mix,substitute applesauce forthe oil, egg substitute or eggwhites for the eggs, addingone extra white and 1 tbsp.flour. Add water as packagedirects. Spray pans withcooking spray.

EENND OD OF THF THE E RRAIAINNBBOW COW CAKE AKE

2 packages white cake mix Food coloring (optional) 3/4-cup canned crushed

pineapple, well-drained1/2-teaspoon almond extract 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 1/2-cup finely chopped pistachio nuts 1/2-cup apricot preserves, slightly beaten 1/2-cup raspberry preserves 1 quart heavy whipping cream OR 8 cups frozen whipped topping* 2 tablespoons confectioner’s sugar

NOTE: I prepare all of thewhipped cream mixturesfirst and then layer the cake.

Day before: In two 8-inchby 8-inch by 2-inch squarepans or two 8-inch roundpans, bake 1 package cake

mix as package directs.Repeat. Refrigerate fourcooled, wrapped cakes.

Early next day: If you’reusing heavy whippingcream, whip half the cream(2 cups). Heavy creamdoubles when whipped,giving you 4 cups. Refriger-ate remaining cream.

1. With long sharp knife,split each of 3 cakes, making6 layers. On large, low cakeplate, place one of the splitlayers, cut side up.

2. With yellow color, tintpineapple pale yellow; thenfold in one fourth of thewhipped cream. Spreadmixture on split layer; topwith second split layer, cutside up.

3. With red color, brightenraspberry jam; fold in onefourth of the whippedcream. Spread on secondlayer; top with third splitlayer cut side up.

4. With green color, tintone fourth of whippedcream pale green. Fold inalmond extract, granulated

sugar and nuts. Spread onthird layer; top with fourthsplit layer, cut side up.

5. With yellow color,brighten apricot preserves;fold in rest of the cream.Spread on fourth layer; topwith fifth split layer cut sidedown. (Use rest of cakeelsewhere).

6. Refrigerate cake for atleast 2 hours to set.

7. Whip remaining 2 cupsof cream, adding confec-tioner’s sugar.

Frost top and sides ofcake, refrigerate untilserving time.

This cake is so tall you willneed dinner plates to serveit. An electric knife cuts itbest.

Decorate cake as youchoose. I used fresh cut,washed flowers from thegarden. Remember, theflowers are to decorate, notto eat, just to look at.

WHWHIIPPPPEED CD CRREAM EAM

Whipped cream is

extremely tricky to catch itjust right before it turns tobutter. Use 2 tablespoonsconfectioner’s sugar to 2cups heavy whippingcream. Use a high narrowbowl. Chill bowl andbeaters.

Using an electric mixer,beat at high speed untilfrothy. Add sugar andcontinue beating, watchingthe cream very carefully. Itwill start to thicken.Continue beating, scrapingbowl occasionally. Thecream is whipped when itstarts to have a slight"break-up" look. (Over-beating by just a fewseconds will suddenly turnit into butter. It willbecome a mass with wateraround it.)

This makes enough tofrost two 8- to 9- inchlayers.

He’s back! One of golf’sbiggest icons hasreturned. No, not

him. I’m speaking of mydear friend, Ryder Cup.

After a European teamvictory at Celtic Manor inWales in the last Ryder Cupmatches, my old friend hasspent the past two yearstraveling Europe. Thisweekend he is back here inthe United States, at Medi-nah Country Club outsideChicago for the 2012 RyderCup matches.

I caught RC just before hisscheduled daily massageand shining. After himspending so much timeacross the pond, we had alot to talk about.

As I sat down with him,the grin plastered on his facewas hard to ignore. He lovesthe spotlight that thesematches put on the gameand the fellowship itpromotes. He reminded me

that he loves these matches,but longs for the days whensportsmanship and cama-raderie were the rule of theday.

“Truthfully, I’m tired of the‘war on the shore’ talk we’vebeen hearing for weeksnow,” he said. “The wayeveryone was treated thatyear saddened me. And nowthey plan to replay it allweek before the matchesbegin. I guess Golf Channelwants to provide the Euroswith some bulletin boardmaterial.”

I asked him what hethought of the captains’picks and of Davis Love III,our U.S. captain, passing ona couple of players.

“I’d do what the king did,”he said with a twinkle in hiseye. “Arnie told everyone ‘Ifyou want to make the team,finish in the top-12.’ That’show I’d do it. Either that orlet the captain pick all 12

players. Now that could beinteresting.

“I can also understand afew players feeling left out,”he added. “Poor HunterMahan, the man won thematch play this year! And Bovan Pelt was playing so well.I’m a bit miffed.”

Did the victory in Wales bythe European team surpriseyou at all? I mean theEuropean team had somebig players, but the U.S.team had that emotionalwin two years before.

“I think being the under-dog was great for the lads,”said RC. “They didn’t havetoo much pressure and Itruly think they caught the

U.S. lads at just the righttime.”

You mean with Mickelson,Mahan, Watson and Furyk,the top-four U.S. players,combining to win just threepoints the entire weekend?They certainly didn’t helpCaptain Pavin.

“They played well enough;they just ran into a few guyswho wanted to show theworld they can play greatgolf. Ricky Fowler was fun towatch. That reminds me, dothey sell those fancy orangeoutfits at the mall? I think I’dlook quite spiffy in that. “Ithink Pavin did fine. It washis wife who messed thingsup,” RC continued, shakinghis head. “She insisted onhaving their rain suitsembroidered. Doesn’t sheknow that thousands ofneedles punching holes in arain suit simply made themscreen doors?”

Are you hoping to spend

the next couple of yearsback here in the states?

“Honestly? I am a bit tiredof sitting over there inEurope. I love it in PalmBeach. The women shavetheir legs before putting ona bikini, the Cuban food isfantastic and there is somuch great golf right in thearea. I can also play golfwithout two sweaters, ajacket and a bonnet. I willmiss the Guinness, though.”

What do you haveplanned for the week beforethe matches begin?

“My good friend Wanna-maker (the PGA Champi-onship trophy) and I have alot of catching up. He’sthrowing a big party for allthe big-name trophies. Doyou have any idea howmuch of the hard stuff thatclubhouse from the Masterscan put away? We may eveninvite the new kid, FedExCup. Maybe with enough

liquor in him, he’ll explainhow that silly scoringsystem works.

“I’m also going to workon my tan and find a fewcigars. Unless I can findMichael Jordan, I may be onmy own in that regard.”

RC, thank you so muchfor your time. We’ll have totee it up again some daysoon.

“Thank you, it was mypleasure. And to all of yourreaders, I must say thankyou for caring so deeplyabout our great game andthe Ryder Cup. Rememberto keep the spirit of thegame in your hearts and apint in your pocket.”
