The City of Fountain Valley has long had a close relationship with its residents. Each year over 20 community events are held with the goal of strengthening community image and sense of place. This year the Huntington Beach Auto Dealers have gone beyond their own city boundaries to show their support for this goal. The Executive Committee of the HB Auto Deal- ers Assoc. includes Bob Miller, Huntington Beach Toyota, Paul Conant, Norm Reeves Honda and Bill Demares, Delillo Chevrolet. They met last recently with Fountain Valley Mayor John Collins and Manager, Community Services Department Mark Nix to present a check for sponsorship of six special events this year and the community softball program. The Committee is enthusiastic about its relationship with their neighbor Fountain Valley. Mr. Miller says, “There has been a bit of a hiatus in the support the Auto Dealers have directed to Fountain Valley-based non-profits and events. We are committed to increasing that participation.” The City of Fountain Valley is pleased to be partnering with this team and appreciate their generosity. These events help make “A Nice Place to Live” and a nice place to play. For more information on Fountain Valley sponsorship opportunities, call 714-593-4449 or view our 2012 Sponsorship Packet.

Crossing the country is nothing new; even thefictional character Forrest Gump did it for noparticular reason.

But unlike Gump, Huntington Beach resident FlynnDonoho, 53, is peddling his bicycle across the nationfor two good causes: cancer research and to prove he’semployable.

“I’m looking for a place I could work and callhome,” said Donoho, who passed through ImperialCounty and stayed for two days.

“No work” was the main thing that triggered him to leave Huntington Beach and start riding, he said. He wants potential employers to see that “if this guy could ride all across the U.S.,” Donoho said,he’s able to work nonstop and achieve every goal hesets for himself.

For the past few years Donoho, whois homeless, hasn’t been suffering onlyfrom dire economic times. Some of hisloved ones have died from cancer.

One of his sisters survived breast cancer 2 1/2 yearsago, but another of his siblings didn’t.

“I had a 35-year-old stepsister (who) died of double breast cancer,” he said. “It invaded her wholebody and killed her.”

Cancer patients endure pains 24 hours a day, hesaid, while “I can ride all day long and not be in pain.”

So he figured that if he was going to be out, Donohosaid, “I can do something to help.”

He set up a Web site with the American Cancer

Society and established a goal of $1,000 that goes directly to this agency. He’s about $300 short ofreaching his goal, Donoho said.

It took him close to a month to prepare for his yearlong trip. He had to establish a safe and legalroute, get the supplies and proper clothes, and then he“said goodbye to my mom,” Donoho said.

It took him all last year’s winter and spring, and

by summertime of 2010 he reached the East Coast.After visiting New York he headed south to Key

West, Fla., “which is a really cool spot,” said Donoho.But the place he liked the most was

Back to the DoctorDuring my physical yesterday, my doct

or asked me about my daily activity

level, and so I described a typical day this way:

"Well, yesterday morning, I waded along the edge of a lake, escaped from

wild dogs in the heavy brush, marched up and down several rocky hills,

stood in a patch of poison ivy, crawled out of quicksand, and jumped away

from an aggressive rattlesnake."

Impressed by my story, my Doc said, "You must be some outdoors man!"

Look carefully at the B-17 and note howshot up it is - one engine dead, tail, horizontal stabilizer and nose shot up. It

was ready to fall out of the sky. (This is a paintingdone by an artist from the description of both pilotsmany years later.) Then realize that there is a German ME-109 fighter flying next to it. Nowread the story below. I think you'll be surprised...

Charlie Brown was a B-17 Flying Fortress pilotwith the 379th Bomber Group at Kimbolton ,England. His B-17 was called 'Ye Old Pub' andwas in a terrible state, having been hit by flak andfighters. The compass was damaged and theywere flying deeper over enemy

territory instead of heading home to Kimbolton.

After flying the B-17 over an enemy airfield, aGerman pilot named Franz Steigler was orderedto take off and shoot down the B-17. When hegot near the B-17, he could not believe his eyes.In his words, he 'had never seen a plane in such

a bad state'... The tail and rear section was severely damaged, and the tail gunner wounded.The top gunner was all over the top of the fuselage. The nose was smashed and there

were holes everywhere.

Despite having ammunition, Franz flew to the side of the B-17 and looked at Charlie Brown, the pilot.

Brown was scared and struggling to control his damaged and blood-stained plane.

Aware that they had no idea where they were going, Franz wavedat Charlie to turn 180 degrees. Franz escortedand guided the strickenplane to, and slightlyover, the North Sea towards England . Hethen saluted CharlieBrown and turned away,

back to Europe ..

When Franz landed he told the CO that theplane had been shot down over the sea, and nevertold the truth to anybody. Charlie Brown and theremains of his crew told all at their briefing, butwere ordered never to talk about it.

More than 40 years later, Charlie Brownwanted to find the Luftwaffe pilot who saved thecrew. After years of research, Franz was found.He had never talked about the incident, not evenat post-war reunions.

They met in the USA at a 379th Bomber Groupreunion, together with 25 peoplewho were alive - all because

Franz never fired his guns that day.

When asked why he didn't shoot them down,Stigler later said, "I didn't have the heart to finishthose brave men. I flew beside them for a longtime. They were trying desperately to get homeand I was going to let them do that. I could nothave shot at them. It would have been the sameas shooting at a man in a parachute."

Both men died in 2008.

This is a true story..This was back in the days when there was

honour in being a warrior. They proudly woreuniforms, and they didn't hide behind women andchildren, nor did they plant bombs amidst innocent crowds.

How times have changed...

David Kiley | AOL Autos does a succinctjob of opening our eyes to contemporarymyths about our prolific combustion

engines and their reliance (our Nation's) penchantfor Gasoline...

"Iranian leaders are threatening to close theStraits of Hormuz, a key route for transportingMiddle-East oil. If that were to happen, the priceof oil would likely go up.

Meantime, the average price of gasoline at thepump in the U.S. higher than it was a year ago,but still well off the$4.00+ per gallon highswe saw last April.

However gas pricestrend in 2012, here are five myths aboutgasoline, gas prices andA m e r i c a n d r i v i n g explained and debunked.

1. High gastaxes would bebad for the U.S.We Americans love our

cheap gas. The averageprice of a gallon of regular gas today is $3.24, according to AAA. That is higher than the $3.04of a year ago, but still a lot lower than other parts of the world.

Gas prices in Europe trend closer to $6.50 pergallon. And before you talk about how the Europeaneconomy is in a shambles, don't for a minuteblame fuel prices. It has nothing to do with the

problems of the European Union economy today.

Europe's per-capita energy use is half that of theU.S., owing to the fact that the high prices compel families and businesses to conserve thegas they use, and buy much more fuel efficientvehicles than we buy in the U.S. This policyleaves Europe much less vulnerable to oil priceshocks, and makes Europeans far less interested in fighting Middle East wars.

U.S. drivers adapt when gas prices go higher.When gas prices near and top $4.00 per gallon, sales of smaller, more fuel efficientvehicles and hybrids go up. But then pricescome down, sales of those vehicles softenand those of SUVs go up again.

Actual policy that set a floor for gasprices would change U.S. driving habits for good, give automakers the clarity of

policy they need to build the right mix of vehicles and allow oil companies to plan theirmix of investments.

2. Environmental regulationskeep oil prices high

High, compared with what? Many politiciansand pundits are fond of crying out "Drill, baby

drill." Jobs and energyindependence willfollow. Would it surprise you toknow that the U.S.for 2011 will be anet exporter of oilfor the first timesince 1949, accordingto the U.S. EnergyInformation Admin-istration. That's right.The U.S. is now exporting more oilthan it imports from

the countries that don't like the U.S.

If the oil industry is being asked to agree toenvironmental regulations before they drill innew places, it is because regulators know thatonce oil companies start exploring and drillingin new areas, it is difficult and unfair to changethe regulations once they have already started.Remember the BP oil spill in the Gulf? Oil

companies make mistakes, and many timesthose mistakes stem from weak or ignoreregulations about safety and procedures.

Oil prices are determined largely by the laws of supply and demand, and speculation, not regulations.

3. High octane gasolineimproves mileage and

improves "power"Nope. Neither one. if your car is designed to

run on 87 octane gasoline, high octane gasoline will not improve a vehicle's mileage.High octane gasoline does not make for

quicker starting, nor does it increase power. Ifyou notice quicker starting or more power afterchanging gas, it probably means your engine isin need of repair.

4. If I use regular gas in a carthat says "use premium gas

only," I will damage the engineThis is debatable depending on the engineer

you speak to. But we are siding on this as a myth.

Many automakers, especially luxury makes, prescribe premium fuel because the performancestatistics they market to us (0-60 times and fueleconomy) are based on tests using premium fuel. If you put regular gas in such a car, you maynot achieve those exact 0-60 times, and you may lose a mile per gallon, but you will not damage the engine.

5. Diesel fuel is dirtyThat used to be the case if you were comparing

diesel to gasoline. But EPA emissions requirements have significantly tightened, anddiesel engines now have to meet the same environmental criteria as gas engines. Automakersachieve this by adding a Diesel Particulate Filter(DPF), which removes visible smoke.

A few years ago, diesel fuel had to be madecleaner by removing sulphur. Today, the diesel we pump is Ultra-Low-Sulphur-Diesel, or"clean diesel." Today's automotive diesel engines actually emit less carbon dioxide thangasoline engines do."

Page 6: The Local News—January 15, 2012

In a 14-4 vote at their annualconvention last

week, the NCAA’s Division-1 Board of Directors rejected a rule changeadopted in October that would have allowed member institutions to give student-athletes up to $2,000 in annualstipends. The vote to suspend the new rule came as no surprise. A total of 125 schools – morethan one third of all D-1 institutions –had signed a petition to revisit it.

Resistance to the stipend is basedon a claim by many schools that theydo not have the revenue to cover the additional cost. That may be true ofsome schools. Annual athletic budgetsin D-1 range from a low of $5 millionto the University of Texas’ $140 million. But the cry of poverty is of little solace to the 400,000 NCAA student-athletes who average a shortfall of $3,200 per year – in somecases, as much as $11,000 per year – between the value oftheir scholarship and the actual cost of college attendance.

However, institutions are facing a losing PR battle. Anumber of conferences have deals in place that guaranteethem billions of dollars from media contracts alone. For example, the SEC signed agreements with CBS and ESPNin 2009 that will reportedly pay member schools an averageof $17 million per year for each of the next 15 years. Thosenumbers suggest that some schools are awash in money.

So what about the schools at the lower end of the revenuescale? The easy solution to their alleged inability to pay thenew stipend is greater revenue sharing among schools.After all, if it works for the professional leagues, it can workfor the colleges, who are professional in every respect save

name and the figment of the NCAA’s imagination. Additional revenue sharing will not result in a sea changeto current operations. Colleges already share revenue, be itfrom NCAA distributions or conference generated revenue.

At the same time that the D-1 BOD shot down the stipendrule, they also killed several other proposals designed tosave schools money, including one that would have

eliminated off-season travel to foreigncompetitions and a second that wouldhave reduced the number of scholar-

ships in football from 85 to 80 and inwomen’s basketball from 15 to 13.

Yet a recent USA Today survey determined that salaries for footballcoaches at the 25 Bowl Subdivisionschools that will change coaches in2012 will average $1.5 million, a36% increase over the $1.1 milliontheir predecessors were paid in 2011.

The moral here is that schools have the resources to spend on items they want, or feel they “need.”

But clearly, additional stipends to student-athletesdon’t fall in either category.

and water policy. He also championed theDream Act.

“The Governor is playing hide-the-ball,” Silva said. “Lastyear, he spent money on welfare programs that should have gone to education. Then he signed the so-called DreamAct, giving tax dollars to illegal immigrants to attend college when they can’t even legally get a job after graduating. Now he wants to raise taxes to backfill K-12education funding.

“Voters are not going to be fooled by this,” continued Silva. “They’re not going to vote to raise taxes to pay for more programs the state cannot afford.”

Annual Study Compares Rates of Homicide Victimization for Californians Ages 10 to 24 by

County, Race, Ethnicity, Weapon Used, Circumstance, and Location

Monterey County’s young people suffera murder rate that leads all California counties and is nearly three times the overall state rate for the same age range, ac-cording to “Lost Youth: A County-by-County Analysis of 2010 CaliforniaHomicide Victims Ages 10 to 24,” a studyanalyzing unpublished California Department of Justice SupplementaryHomicide Report (SHR) data releasedtoday by the Violence Policy Center (VPC).The study, available at http:// www. vpc.org/studies/cayouth2012.pdf and funded byThe California Wellness Foundation, usesthe most recent data available to rank California counties by their homicide victimization rates for youth and youngadults ages 10 to 24.

This is the second year that the VPC hasreleased the study and the second year thatMonterey County has led the rankings.While for 2010 Monterey maintained its topranking compared to other California counties, the county’s homicide victimization rate for this age groupdropped from 31.24 per 100,000 in 2009 to24.36 per 100,000 in 2010.

Statewide, the homicide victimizationrate for Californians ages 10 to 24 droppedfrom 10.48 per 100,000 in 2009 to 8.48 per100,000 in 2010. The appendix from thestudy comparing California counties’ 2009rankings to their 2010 rankings can befound separately at http:// www. vpc.org/studies/cayouth2012ap4.pdf.

The study finds overwhelmingly thatfirearms, usually handguns, are the weaponof choice in the homicides of youth andyoung adults. The study also shows thatthere are vast disparities between groups:in California, young African-Americans are

more than 22 times more likely to be murdered than young whites; young Hispanics are more than five times more likely to be murdered than young whites.

Josh Sugarmann, VPCexecutive director andstudy co-author states,“The homicide rates foryouth and young adultsacross California show theurgent need for effectivev i o l e n c e - p r e v e n t i o n strategies that stress tailored, localized approachesthat engage local leaders andcommunity stakeholders.”

TOP 10 COUNTIES

BY YOUTH

HOMICIDE

VICTIMIZATION RATEThe top 10 counties with

each county's correspondinghomicide victimization ratefor its population of Califor-nians ages 10 to 24 are: 1) Monterey County, 24.36 per 100,0002) Alameda County, 18.41 per 100,0003) San Joaquin County, 18.36 per 100,0004) Tulare County, 18.06 per 100,0005) Merced County, 13.44 per 100,0006) Contra Costa County, 12.94 per 100,0007) Fresno County, 11.61 per 100,0008) San Francisco County, 11.52 per 100,0009) Madera County, 11.39 per 100,00010) Los Angeles County, 11.35 per 100,000

BACKGROUND:GenDer, rACe, and ethniCity:

Out of the 680 homicide victims ages 10 to24 in California in 2010:m89% were male and 11% were female. m53% were Hispanic, 34% black,

7% white, 4% Asian, and one percent were “other.”

Overall, black victims were killed at arate more than 22 times higher than whitevictims. Hispanic victims were killed at a

rate more than five times higher than whitevictims. Asian victims were killed atroughly one and a half times the rate ofwhite victims.

WeAPOn UseD: Firearms, especiallyhandguns, were the most common weaponused to murder youth and young adults. Ofthe 668 homicides for which the murderweapon could be identified, 87 percent ofvictims died by gunfire. Of these, 76 percent were killed with handguns.

reLAtiOnshiP: For homicides inwhich the victim to offender relationshipcould be identified, 50 percent were killedby a stranger. Thirty-two percent werekilled by someone they knew. An additional19 percent were identified as gang members. Black and Hispanic victims weremore likely to be killed by a stranger than

white or Asian victims.CirCUMstAnCe: The overwhelming

majority of homicides of youth and youngadults were not related to any other felonycrime. For the 500 homicides in which thecircumstances between the victim and offender could be identified, 83 percentwere not related to the commission of any other felony. Of these, 64 percent were gang-related.

LOCAtiOn: For all races, the mostcommon homicide location was a street,sidewalk, or parking lot. Among youth andyoung adults for homicides in which the location could be determined, 54 percentoccurred on a street, sidewalk, or in a parking lot. Fourteen percent occurred inthe home of the victim or offender. Twelvepercent occurred at another residence, andnine percent occurred in a vehicle.

COnCLUsiOn AnD reCOMMenDA-tiOns: The study concludes that “homicide, and particularly gun homicide,continues to be one of the most pressingpublic health concerns in California amongyouth and young adults ages 10 to 24” andstates that “effective violence preventionstrategies must include measures that prioritize preventing youth and young adults from accessing firearms, especially handguns.”

The study recommends further researchinto “the identification of the make, model, and caliber of weapons most preferred by this age group as well as analyses identifying the sources of the weapons” and an “expansion of comprehensive violence intervention andprevention strategies that include a focus onthe psychological well-being of witnessesand survivors of gun violence.”

Dear EarthTalk:Ever since the

red dye #2 scare inthe 1970s I’ve been wary

of using food colorings or buying food that appears to contain them. Are there natural andhealthy food colorings?

— Nancy McFarlane, Methuen, MA

Many of us are still wary of food dyes because ofreports about links between red dye #2 and cancer inthe 1970s. While red dye #2 was subsequently bannedfrom products sold in the United States, many health-conscious consumers continue to avoid foods with other artificialcolors or dyes—even though theU.S. Food andDrug Administration(FDA) still considersthem safe for humanconsumption.

But a 2010 analysisof past research onlinks between fooddyes and health byt h e C e n t e r f o r S c i e n c e i n t h e P u b l i c I n t e r e s t(CSPI) found com-pelling evidence thatingestion of artificialdyes can contribute to hyperactivity, restlessness andattention problems in some children—particularlythose with ADHD. “What’s more, the studies suggested that removing dyes from those children’sdiet was a quarter to half as effective in reducing thosesymptoms as giving the kids Ritalin or other

stimulants,” reports Nancy Cordes, CBS News’ Consumer Safety Correspondent. “In other words,certain kids with ADHD might not need drugs if theartificial dyes were removed from their diets.” Severalcommonly used artificial food dyes are suspected carcinogens as well.

While it might be impossible to prevent your children from eating anything with artificial dye, youcan do your part by shopping at Whole Foods orTrader Joe’s—both chains have banned products thatuse artificial dyes and carry all-natural food coloringfor home cooking and baking projects.

One brand to look for is India Tree, which makes aline of food coloringderived from vegetablec o l o r a n t s . T h e company’s “Nature’sColors Natural Decorating Colors”contain no cornsyrup or syntheticdyes, and are highlyrecommended forcoloring icing inrich jewel tones orsoft pastels.

Another companyspecializing in natural (as well asorganic) food

colors is Nature’s Flavors, whoseproducts are widely used commercially in ice cream,baked goods, frosting, dairy products, syrups, sauces,beverages and even hair colors. The company recentlybegan to sell their products to consumers, as well,through retail stores. They use a variety of plant materials, including beets, turmeric root, annattoseeds, purple carrot, purple cabbage, gardenia

flowers, hibiscus flowers and grape skin. “Our naturalfood colors are made from plants and contain powerfulantioxidants, which help the body repair itself fromthe effects of oxidation,” claims Nature’s Flavors.“Using natural or organic food colors may actuallyhelp the brain and slow down the effects of aging.”

Another leading maker of all-natural food coloringis Chefmaster, whose products can be found at WholeFoods and other natural and high end food retailers,as well as on amazon.com and elsewhere online.

CPSI would like the FDA to ban eight of the mostcommon artificial dyes, or at least affix a warninglabel to products that contain them: “Warning: The artificial coloring in this food causes hyperactivity andbehavioral problems in some children.” In the mean-time, concerned eaters should stick with products,stores and restaurants that use natural ingredients.

All wines are appropriate for all seasons. There's nothing wrong withenjoying a simple white or crisp rosé inthe winter, and big reds work all year long.

But our diets change as the weathercools. Just as we look forward to

watermelon and fresh-from-the-gardentomatoes in the summer, in winter wecrave soups, stews, and roasts. So our go-to wines change, as well. This winter,I'm drinking Syrah.

Syrah's ancestral home is the NorthernRhone, where the classic wines of CoteRotie and Hermitage are produced. Thebest wines from these regions still set thebenchmark for the varietal.

High-quality Syrah is wonderfully accessible, even in its youth. As SteveHeimoff, West Coast editor for Wine Enthusiast, recently explained, "I woulddescribe a good Syrah as having theweight of Cabernet Sauvignon, but a littlesofter, and while both wines are markedby the aromas and flavors of blackberries, Syrah's meaty, pepperynotes distinguish it."

Heimoff's description is spot-on. Theblue and black fruit of a good Syrah willdelight you, while the aromas of blackpepper and meat will seduce you. Thegrape is capable of striking the perfectbalance between power and finesse. Consequently, good Syrah works wellwith all sorts of food.

Syrah also represents a great value.Over the past few years, sales of the

varietal have dropped steadily, leadingmany California winemakers to joke thatthat it's easier to get rid of a case of pneumonia than a case of Syrah.

Consumer preference partially explainsthis drop. Although many Californiawinemakers have spent the past decadehoping that Syrahwould be the state'snext great varietal, consumers remainmore interested inCabernet Sauvignonand Chardonnay.

Consumer confusionalso explains the slidein demand. Even wine connoisseurshave a difficult timedistinguishing betweenSyrah and Shiraz.

Technically, the onlydifference between the two is location.When Syrah was takento Australia in the mid-1800s, local winemakers started calling the grape"Shiraz," and the name stuck. The climate is quite different in Australia,though, so the grape tends to produceriper, fruitier wines with higher alcoholand lower acid. Generally speaking, theseare your prototypical "fruit bombs" —they can be deliciously hedonistic, buteven the best ones are difficult to pairwith most meals.

Across Europe, theUnited States, and mosteverywhere else, vintnerscall the variety "Syrah."When winemakers use theAustralian moniker — asthey often do in New

Zealandand SouthAfrica, and sometimesin the United States —they're typically tryingto convey that they'remaking the wine in the archetypicalAustralian style.

Consumers alsoconfuse Syrah withPetite Sirah. While the grapes are distantrelatives, they're completely different.

As a result of thesefactors, good Syrah is generally quite affordable — especiallywhen compared to

other varietals.In the United States, many of the best

Syrahs come from vineyards along California's coast — from the Santa YnezValley and Paso Robles along the CentralCoast, to the Santa Lucia Highlands inMonterey, to the Russian River Valleyand Dry Creek in Sonoma. In Washington, stunning Syrahs are comingfrom the Columbia Valley and Walla

Walla Valley, and Oregon'sRogue Valley is producingmany impressive wines.

You'll notice that all theseareas are relatively cool. Although Syrah is afarmer's dream — reason-ably easy to grow and fairlyresistant to disease — it shines

when grown in cooler areas, resulting incomplex, vibrant, more aromatic wines.When grown in warmer climates, it's tooeasy to produce Syrahs that are flabbyand raisiny.

At your local wine shop, Qupe's "Central Coast" Syrah is an excellentwine for $15 — and for just a few dollarsmore, you can explore Syrahs from producers like Landmark and Rosenblum.If you're interested in exploring somesmaller, family wineries — and live in astate where you can order wine online —Novy Family Wines and Cabot Vineyards are two fantastic producersthat make affordable Syrah.

Did you know the saying "God willingand the Creek don't rise" was in referenceto the Creek Indians and not a body ofwater? It was written by BenjaminHawkins in the late 18th century. He wasa politician and Indian diplomat. Whilein the south, Hawkins was requested bythe President of the U.S. to return toWashington . In his response, he was saidto write, "God willing and the Creekdon't rise." Because he capitalized theword "Creek" it is deduced that he wasreferring to the Creek Indian tribe and nota body of water.

In George Washington's days, therewere no cameras. One's image was eithersculpted or painted. Some paintings ofGeorge Washington showed him standingbehind a desk with one arm behind hisback while others showed both legs andboth arms. Prices charged by painterswere not based on how many people were to be painted, but by how manylimbs were to be painted. Arms and legs are 'limbs,' therefore painting themwould cost the buyer more. Hence the expression, 'Okay, but it'll cost you an

arm and a leg.' (Artists know hands andarms are more difficult to paint)

As incredible as it sounds, men andwomen took baths only twice a year

(May and October) Women kept theirhair covered, while men shaved theirheads (because of lice and bugs) andwore wigs. Wealthy men could affordgood wigs made from wool. They couldn't wash the wigs, so to clean themthey would carve out a loaf of bread, putthe wig in the shell, and bake it for30 minutes. The heat would makethe wig big and fluffy, hence theterm 'big wig.. ' Today we oftenuse the term 'here comes theBig Wig' because someoneappears to be or is powerful and wealthy.

In the late 1700's,many houses consistedof a large room withon ly one cha i r. Commonly, a longwide board foldeddown from the wall,and was used fordining. The 'head ofthe household' alwayssat in the chair while everyoneelse ate sitting on the floor. Occasionallya guest, who was usually a man, wouldbe invited to sit in this chair during ameal. To sit in the chair meant you wereimportant and in charge. They called the

one sitting in the chair the 'chair man.' Today in business, we use the ex-pression or title 'Chairman' or 'Chairmanof the Board.'

Personal hygiene left much room forimprovement. As a result, many women

and men had developed acnescars by adulthood. The

women would spreadbee's wax over their facialskin to smooth out their

complexions. Whenthey were speakingto each other, if awoman began to

stare at anotherwoman's face she wastold, 'mind your own

bee's wax.' Should thewoman smile, the wax

would crack, hence the term'crack a smile'. In addition,when they sat too close tothe fire, the wax would

melt. Therefore, the expression 'losing face.'

Ladies wore corsets, which would laceup in the front. A proper and dignifiedwoman, as in 'straight laced' wore atightly tied lace.

Common entertainment included

playing cards. However, there was a taxlevied when purchasing playing cards but only applicable to the 'Ace ofSpades..' To avoid paying the tax, peoplewould purchase 51 cards instead. Yet,since most games require 52 cards, thesepeople were thought to be stupid or dumb because they weren't 'playing witha full deck.'

Early politicians required feedbackfrom the public to determine what thepeople considered important. Since therewere no telephones, TV's or radios, thepoliticians sent their assistants to localtaverns, pubs, and bars. They were toldto 'go sip some Ale and listen to people'sconversations and political concerns.Many assistants were dispatched at different times. 'You go sip here' and 'Yougo sip there.' The two words 'go sip' were eventually combined when referringto the local opinion and, thus we have the term 'gossip.'

At local taverns, pubs, and bars, peopledrank from pint and quart-sized containers.A bar maid's job was to keep an eye onthe customers and keep the drinks coming. She had to pay close attentionand remember who was drinking in 'pints'and who was drinking in 'quarts,' hencethe phrase 'minding your 'P's and Q's'.

In what’s becoming a recurring headline, Freddie Mac has once again reported “recordlow rates.” This headline seems to grab the attention of homeowners and prospective homebuyers alike. But what does it really mean?There’s actually quite a bit to it.

First off, Freddie Mac’s report indicated the“average” rate for the prior week. Rightaway, this means that by the timeFreddie Mac releases their report, rates have alreadymoved the followingweek. This is exactlywhat just happened.Freddie Mac reportedthat the average rateon 30 year fixedmortgages was3.88% for the priorweek. Unfortunately,by the time the mediawas able to get theword out to the public,interest rates had just experienced three consecutivedays of rate increases. Themovement in rates was relativelymild, but anyone trying to obtain a true“record low rate” came to find that ship had already sailed before they even knew it existed.

Mortgage rates are tied to the bond market, ormore specifically, mortgage-backed securities.Since these are traded on the open market everyday, there are daily fluctuations in mortgagerates. These fluctuations are trivialized in a“weekly” average. The fact is that there have

been a few small windows of opportunity to obtain an even lower rate that what is measuredin a weekly average. The all-time record low formortgage rates only existed for one day onThursday, September 22nd, 2011. This was avery volatile week and rates jumped 0.125% byFriday morning and another 0.125% by Friday

afternoon. This type of volatility threwoff the weekly averages. One of

the reasons we’re seeing sustained record low rates

is that the market is being held relativelystable by the Fed’s Operation Twist. TheFed’s steady involve-ment in purchasingmortgage backed securities is keepingmarkets calm and enabling these record

low rates to last formore than a day. This is

something that didn’texist back in September.

One other aspect that FreddieMac releases in their report in the

cost associated with obtaining these rates.It’s always interesting that the media seems toconveniently omit this part of the story. According to Freddie Mac, the average homeowner spent approximately $2,000 in fixedcosts (title, escrow…) plus three quarters of apoint to obtain these record low rates. On a$400,000 loan, that would be $2,000 in fees plus$3,000 in points for a total of $5,000. Again

though, Freddie is reporting an “average,”which means some people are gettingeven more favorableterms. Well qualifiedhomeowners wereable to lock in a 30year fixed rate3.875% with absolutely $0 closing costs. Inother words, these homeowners are able to getlower rates that what Freddie reports as the “average,” and they’re also able to get it withless closing costs: $0 in some cases.

Back on September 22nd, these same homeowners would have been able to get 3.75%with $0 closing costs, but not if they waited forthe media to talk about it. The most effective wayto “time the market” and ensure you’re gettingthe best rate available is to have an open relationship with your mortgage lender. A truemortgage professional will track the bond marketin “real time” and be able to provide up to theminute data on current mortgage rates. This typeof relationship and open communication can bethe key for homeowners seeking the best deal.
