If you were on Centre Street last Friday afternoon, you were most likely surrounded by cars that cost more than some houses. It was a rainy afternoon and that caused about half of the drivers who were supposed to come out to � e Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance Friday luncheon keep their cars in their trailers out of the rain. � e Palace was decorated like a posh Hollywood night club with white sectional couches and low blue lighting for drivers to have lunch. Driv-ers enjoyed the catered lunch after greeting people on Centre Street who admired their cars.

� e event drew people from all over out to its three-day show with the main event featuring an appearance from Richard Petty, who has won 200 stock races and is most recognizable in his feathered cowboy hat.

Paul and Paulette Rasche from Cincin-nati, OH were in Fernandina leaving on a small cruise boat the next day. � ey were glad to stubble upon the event on Friday and said they enjoyed the island.

"It's nice to just look at these fancy cars. We've never even heard of the names of some of them," Paul Rasche said.

Greg Clark is the manager of AMG for Mercedes-Benz in Montvale, New Jersey. � is is his � rst year at the event and the car he drove to show is a 2011 AMG Mercedes-

Benz. He has always been into cars and is glad to be working with them as an adult.

"If it has four wheels, then I'm in it," Clark said.

He says he is proud of this car and its per-formance. It is the � rst time the developers have been able to start with a clean slate and work on something completely unique. He says it is special because it is light weight, high performance and hand built. It is de-signed solely by AMG.

It was quite the production on Friday, with half of the cars parading down Cen-tre Street from 8th Street and half of them driving in the opposite way from Ash Street. � e crowd stood with anticipation because they drove through later than scheduled.

� e drivers parked their cars and opened the hoods for all to marvel at.

� e entire weekend included a gala on Sat-urday and a show next to the Ritz-Carlton, as well as a classic car auction on Sunday.

� is unique event attracts car a� cionados from all over including France and England.

� e unique propeller car from France was a big hit with its odd shaped plane looking style. It is only 550 pounds and goes 50 miles per hour. It was built and designed by Marcel Leyat in 1913 and the clutch, gear box and universal joint are replaced by a simple wooden propeller driven by the en-gine.

� e concours was in its 15th year and at-tracted over 18,000 visitors.

Nena Meeks has been in Yulee her entire life. She has never moved because Yulee is where her family is. She likes that it is quiet and that there are areas to hunt and fi sh. She and her family also travel to Pennsylvania to hunt. She has six grandchildren. Her and her daughter (pictured with her) shop at the local pet store for their three dogs and one rabbit. She and her family like going out to eat a lot and their favorite places are Starbucks, Chik-Fil-A and McDonalds. The only thing she doesn’t like about Yulee is that it is growing too fast.

Casey Raulerson has lived in Hilliard all her life and recently graduated from Hilliard Middle-Senior High School. She is the youngest sister of fi ve girls in her family. She spends a lot of her time hanging out with her sisters and working at a local western outfi tters. She says she likes Hilliard, but that it is too small and she plans on moving to a larger town some day. She says she doesn’t have any elaborate plans anytime soon. “I’m kind of just going along to see what happens.”

of every year in Fernandina. She and her husband are from Cape Cod and have been coming to Fernandina in the winter since 2001. She has a dog named Mr. Whispers whom she loves taking to the Nassau Humane Society Dog Park in Fernandina. It is actually her daughter’s dog and Donner calls herself a grandmother to a little chiuaua. She loves the friendly people, the beaches and the nature in Fernandina. She likes to take out her canoe and to go hiking. The only thing she says she would change is the idea some residents and local government have that will ban dogs from being allowed at the beaches.

� e Florida House of Representatives con-vened this past Tuesday for its 112th Session, but much work had already been completed with committee weeks in October, Novem-ber, January and February. 

Opening day is always a festive time in our State Capitol with the � owers on the desks during the early morning hours.   It reminds you why the Florida House Chamber is a spe-cial place, where serious decisions are made that a� ect the lives of all Floridians.

� is year we carried over a Florida Sun-shine cake from Old South Yankee Store, here on Amelia Island and hosted the Re-publican Women.  It was special to have local leaders of our Republican Women’s organiza-tion like Mary Downey and Cherie Billings at the Capitol.

In the Florida House, there is a tradition that all of the women members wear read on Opening Day.  � e Florida House currently has 28 women who are members, represent-ing nearly 21 percent of all women who have ever served.  Since 1928, only 135 women throughout history have served in the Florida House of Representatives. 

We witnessed the swearing in of a new member Rep. Janet Crews.  We now have three Janets serving in the Florida House of Representatives!  Many former members of the chamber lined the seats along the wall and were recognized as part of the opening day events.

It is tradition that when the chamber is in session, only members, Senators and au-thorized persons are allowed on the � oor of the chamber.  � e legislative aides are not al-lowed on the � oor, nor are members of the family who come to visit.  Former members are always allowed back on the � oor and when they come; the Florida House will take a break and recognize that former member as being in the chamber. 

Early committee work on Opening Day of Legislative Session allowed the members of the House and Senate to pass HB 7033 on the Opening Day of Session to provide short term relief to businesses by reducing the un-employment compensation tax in 2010 and 2010. 

With nearly 12 percent unemployment in Florida, bene� t payments from the Unem-

ployment Compensation Trust Fund have outstripped tax payments into the fund.  � e fund has been depleted and the state is now taking advances from the federal government in order to continue payment of unemploy-ment bene� ts. 

Absent HB7033, employers throughout Florida would have been subject to increases of anywhere between 21 percent and 5400 percent, depending on each employers’ cir-cumstances.  � ere was unanimous agree-ment that these increases would add to Florida’s unemployment problem and the bill passed 117 to 0 in the House and 39-0 in the Senate.  Gov. Charlie Crist signed the legisla-tion into law minutes before giving the State of the State address to the Joint Session of the House and Senate.

� e primary focus of this Legislative Ses-sion will be the budget.  Estimates indicate between $1.1 billion shortfall to a $3.2 bil-lion shortfall.  Next year, it is anticipated that the budget scenario will be even worse with an estimated $5 to $6 billion shortfall.

Florida is not alone in this problem.   It is

I was intrigued re-cently by an article on the production of glass. Beautiful cut glass has its begin-nings in the grains of the earth’s substance, in tiny grains that are fragile but move-able. Moveable in a way that, over time, it intersects the other needed elements need-ed to bring about its

new shape and form. Glass can even be made in nature if something like light-ning strikes a place where the right mix of soda and lime are found with sand.

� ere is no way to know how far one tiny grain of sand travels or how much of our earth’s creation it crosses before it takes its place in a beautiful piece of glass molded by human hand. When glass is made by humankind, the work of the hands and the soul intersect with the el-ements of our earth. � e creative spirit birthed from one’s soul gives these ele-ments a new life, a re� ection of the spirit of our Creator.

Glass can serve us simply and func-tionally each day in the mirror above our dresser or it can leave us standing in awe at the dance of energy and light at play in a beautiful work of art. When glass be-comes art, we see the true intersection of God’s creative spirit with the artistic hu-man hand. And it started with the tiny grain of sand.

Life too begins with a tiny seed, touched by the miracle of creation. Just as a tiny grain of sand can � nd its way to a beauti-ful work of art, every life can grow into its God given potential. � e tiny � nger of an infant reaches out at the earliest age to hold and be held, to love and be loved. But the way one’s life intersects with the world can make all the di� erence. One life can make its way to a beautiful home in warm inviting surroundings while an-other cries out for the warmth of love and shelter. We can never know just how much a tiny grain of care, made evident through giving, can prepare tiny � ngers to reach out and greet the world, how much a tiny grain of commitment can build and strengthen character, how much a tiny grain of hope can help nurture one’s soul to grow into our God given potential.

Whatever form it takes, glass is always at its best when re� ecting light. Each time we see our re� ection in the looking glass, we see the beauty of God’s love re� ecting back at each of us. Like glass works of art, we too are at our best when we are re� ect-ing light – the light of God’s love in our community.

Rev. Mary Kendrick Moore is the pastor of New Vision Congregational Church in Yulee, a new church a® liated with the United Church of Christ. For more information, visit www.NewVision-CongregationalChurch.org.

Q:   My Queen palm appears to be dead.  will it come back?  gp

A:   � e short answer is you will have to wait until later in the spring by determining if any fronds come out green. � e long answer is re-garding which palms really can tol-erate our colder winter weather. I know you are thinking you moved here because the average tempera-ture is well above freezing, which is true, but nothing about this and the previous winter falls into the “aver-age” category. Queen palms, Sya-grus romanzo® ana, have feathery fronds and tall slender trunks which reach heights of up to 50 feet.  � e cold hardiness zone for this palm is 9B – 11, remember we are in cold hardiness zone 8B-9A which is just above the Queen palm’s preferred area. � is explains why so many of these palms have su� ered over the last two years. It would be better

to choose a cold hardy palm such as Pindo, Cabbage, Chinese Fan or Indian Date.  Refrain from plant-ing the Pygmy Date Palm, Phoe-nix roebelenii, as it is also a south Florida palm in the 10-11 cold har-diness zones. � e photos attached were taken by me last year after the freezing temperatures occurred and the Queen and  Pygmy palms did not recover.  We have several cold hardy palms in the UF/IFAS Nas-sau County demonstration garden, which we will be refurbishing later this spring and summer if we re-ceive the grants we wrote this win-ter. Remember to use palm fertilizer on your palms spring, summer and fall.  For more complete informa-tion check out the publications from the University of Florida on the Queen palm: http://hort.u� .edu/trees/SYAROMA.pdf  and the Pygmy Date palm: http://hort.u� .edu/trees/PHOROEA.pdf

Q:   what is wrong with my sago palm?  The newer fronds are brown and twisted.  EBA:   You sago palm appears to have a nutrient de� ciency called frizzle top. � e sago is lacking manganese (Mn), which can be found at your local garden center in the form of manganese sulfate. Do not confuse manganese sulfate with magnesium sulfate which is the ingredient found in Epsom salts. You will need to be sure to add manganese sulfate to your normal palm fertilizer if it does not already contain manganese. � e fertilizer should be spread totally under the canopy of the

fronds.  Add a small amount of water to be sure the fertilizer reaches the root area. Adding Mn now will not change the look of the current fronds. However, do not be tempted to remove all the ugly fronds especially if they still have any green color. � e green color tells you the fronds are still providing food to the palm and removing them will stress the palm even more. Regarding removal of palm fronds, it is best to keep all fronds on all palms until they are totally brown.

Q:  My gardenias are showing yellowing leaves. My neighbor told me to add iron sulfate.  will it help? TO

A:  Adding iron sulfate to the soil around the root area of the gardenia may help if the problem is a de� -ciency in iron. Yellow leaves may be the result of low nitrogen levels or high pH soil among other things. If the pH of the soil is too high then even the presence of enough iron will not solve the problem com-pletely. You might consider working materials into the soil such as peat moss or co� ee grinds which will lower the soil pH on a temporary basis. Consider using pine products for mulch as they also help lower the soil pH. � e “sulfate” part of iron sulfate can also temporarily lower soil pH so the plant is able to absorb the nutrients it needs. It is best to use an acid loving fertilizer on plants such as azaleas, camellias, gardenias and holly as it should contain the el-ement sulfur. Recognize the sulfur?

Yes, you are correct; this also lowers the pH slightly on a temporary ba-sis. Did you also notice I have stated several times the pH is lowered on a “temporary basis”?  Lowering pH or trying to make it more acid is dif-� cult and can usually be done only for a short span of time. � e natural tendency of alkaline soil is to stay alkaline. Any Extension o® ce will be glad to run a soil test for you to determine the soil pH.  Please call the Nassau County o® ce at 548-1116 or 879-1019 to determine the best time to drop o� your soil speci-men. � is test is free of charge but please limit the number of samples you bring in to no more than 2-3.  Take your soil samples where roots would be growing rather than just skimming the top of the soil.  � e attached photo is from Clemson University. For more complete in-formation regarding soil pH, check out the University of Florida publi-cation titled “Soil pH and the Home Landscape or Garden”: http://edis.ifas.u� .edu/ss480

Nurturing what survived the winter to blooming perfection

March 18, 2010| The Nassau News 5

� e hardest thing about wireless speakers is � nding one or a pair that truly are wireless. � ere are a plethora of brands, shapes and sizes but only a few that provide the true convenience of be-ing wireless.

Here are a few things to look for in a wireless speaker. � e Mhz rating is the frequency that the speaker operates on. � is will determine how many other wire-less things might interfere with its reception. 900Mhz tends to be the most common. Un-fortunately, it is the most common for a lot of electronic devices. Cordless phones in partic-ular. If your phone is 900Mhz and your wire-less speaker is too, then there is a possibility of poor reception if you were to talk on the phone while sitting near your speaker. Walkie Talkies, scanners, telephones and even some radios can cause interference with a wireless speaker.

So Bill, what’s the solution? Glad you asked. Here are some guidelines to shop by. Try purchasing a speaker that operates on 2.4G or gigahertz. � is will narrow down the amount of possible disturbances from other equipment. Stick with a brand name or a trusted name with a good warranty. If the speaker is under $50, odds are good that it isn’t. Look especially for the capability of uti-lizing a rechargeable battery. How wireless is

a speaker if you have to plug it into a nearby outlet every time you wish to use it? I know of many people that locate the speaker poolside or next to their tub while bathing. Not a good time to be messing with an electrical outlet, my friend. Oh, and the manufacturer may say that the speaker is indoor/outdoor. It usually means it’s weather resistant and should not be left outside to the elements of hurricane season.

If you’re trying to get wireless “surround” speakers, that’s a di� erent critter. � ere are a lot of good HTIB systems that utilize wireless rears. Just remember, it’s not like you stick the speakers on the wall and magically, they produce sound. Wireless rear speakers usually still have to be wired to a receiving box that is plugged into an outlet. I’ve done many sys-tems utilizing these types of speakers but it all depends on the room and placement. Sounds like a good reason to get yourself a free site survey huh?

Well, I hope that clears up a few questions about wireless speakers. I’m a big fan of them because of the portability of getting music where no music has gone before. If you’re thinking of buying some wireless speakers, drop me a line � rst and I will be more than happy to give you some direction.

Next week: Internet television…”What’s that mean to me?” Cheers!

estimated there will be a total of $124 billion shortfall for all 50 states over the next two years.  Historically, the two years following a recession are the most di® cult for states since revenues have not yet increased su® -ciently to provide services to the increased number of citizens in needs.

� is is exactly where Florida is.  Gen-eral revenue estimates are showing signs of improvement; however, because we have a much larger number of citizens on public as-sistance, the revenue growth is insu® cient to meet the estimated needs.

While much attention is on the budg-et, members are pushing to get their bills on committee agenda.    One of my bills, HB317, has been heard in its � rst commit-tee.  � is bill is a result of a concern by our own Sheri� Tommy Seagraves and will close the loophole when threats are made via elec-tronic means. 

Currently, if a threat to do bodily harm is written on a piece of paper, Florida Statute covers it; but if the threat is sent via email, text, or a social networking site, the statute does not explicitly cover it.  With an increas-ing number of people using these electronic tools, it is just common sense that our laws

need to re� ect today’s society.One of our early victories was getting

Florida DOT into action on making repairs to the badly damaged areas of A1A.  � e un-raveling of this road due to the harsh winter conditions is a safety issue and working with the Secretary for DOT we have established a plan to get an overlay installed on the prob-lem areas by April 2010.  � e resurfacing for the road scheduled for 2011 is still in the budget and is a high priority for the Florida DOT.

I am excited to report that my friend, State Representative Chris Dorworth, has clinched the race to become speaker in 2014.  As an early supporter of Representa-tive Dorworth, he will be a reliable partner for Northeast Florida.    I look forward to working under his leadership as the session unfolds.

� ese are truly unprecedented times for everyone.  With our eyes focused on work-ing families and taxpayers, I know that the Florida House of Representatives will deliver a balanced budget that will move our State forward.

Janet AdkinsState Representative, Florida District 12

6 The Nassau News | March 18, 2010

� is past weekend I � nally let it go: the biggest sigh of relief that could come out of anyone’s mouth escaped mine. It seems like ages ago since I landed more � sh than the digits on my hands. � e temperature change in the past two weeks brought the frigid lower 50s that have occupied our wa-ters for months to the upper 50s. � is sudden change has apparently coaxed the trout and reds out of their shells.

I pre-� shed an area two weeks ago to try and locate some trout for a scheduled � shing trip. I had some suc-cess with the trout taking a nice limit home. It was slightly frustrating as it took several hours to � nd what the � sh were biting and the proper presentation. After changing colors and weight countless times I found the right combination

to entice the � sh to bite.� e scheduled trip took place

this past weekend and I took to heart the setups that had worked previously. � ree other guys and myself went out to one of my local haunts to see if we could duplicate my past weekends results. Once we got to the hole we rigged up three similar baits and started � sh-ing. � e results were instant. � e trout were annihilating everything thrown at them.

We found these � sh in about six feet of water on the last of the outgoing tide. We � shed the remainder of the outgoing and the � rst part of the incoming. Four individuals took a limit of trout home as well as a few nice red � sh and a small � ounder to boot.

� e � sh really responded well to the three-inch, new penny, Berkley Gulp shrimp. We used the 16-ounce DOA CAL red jig heads. � e best results were achieved by long casts and slow retrievals. � e best thing about using ultra light weight jig heads is you can make mistakes. Even if you throw them on top of structure you have plenty of time to get it over the top before a hang up occurs.

I included the set up in the picture. Just push the barb of the jig head into the tip of the shrimps head. Run it through about three quarters of an inch and bring it out the back of the shrimp. I also included the Berkley Gulp swimming mullet and the Fish Bites swimming shad in the picture because these baits brought success as well. Rig them the same exact way as the shrimp.

Anthony Adkins turned his hob-by and love of motorcycles into a business that has become bene� cial to local motorcycle enthusiasts.

Adkins owns Wicked Cyles on Duval Place in Jacksonville. He started the business in August, 2009 and has drawn customers from all over, including Nassau County and the southside of Jacksonville. A lot of their customers are referrals from other customers.

Adkins drag raced since he was a teenager and has always loved mo-torcycles. He says he had anything from race cars to dune buggies.

Adkins works on motorcycles, four-wheelers and dirt bikes. He specializes in accessorizing. He puts a lot of LED lights on bikes and puts on special tires. He also puts tires on vehicles. He does a certain style paint job called powder coating. He

installs a lot of extensions on bikes, which is a part that elongates the bike. To add to that, he services bikes and changes the oil. Wicked Cycles is currently in the process of setting up with a golf cart company so they can service them as well. � ey do not, however, do body work.

� ey are not a retail store, but can order and sell a lot of clothing such as leather jackets for customers.

Adkins is a one-man show and is usually at the shop 12 hours a day. His wife Lisa helps him out at the shop.

“He always liked to work on bikes and he enjoys his job,” Lisa Adkins said.

� e Adkins juggle this business with two teenage daughters and another electric company that An-thony works for as well. His wife says they eventually want to work Wicked Cycles full time.

He will work on most brands of bikes and makes sure the job is done

before taking payment.“We would rather do our work

and then you pay us,” Lisa said.He has a few bikes at the moment

he is working on that just need � x-ing because of the cold weather. When it is cold like it has been for a long period of time, he recommends at least turning on the bike and run-ning the engine because the gas can become stale and a number of other issues can occur.

He loves seeing the transforma-tion that occurs when he customizes a bike.

“I like seeing something come in as stock and leave like a custom,” he said.

He says their future plans are to move to a busier road and have more space for retail.

For now, they are content with making sure all their customers are satis� ed and making the art of cus-tom bikes and other motorized vehi-cles accessible to all.

� e nail is technically referred to as ONYX. It is made of keratin: the same protein found in skin and hair. A healthy nail should be white in color and translu-cent in appearance. � e nail plate contains no nerves or blood vessels.

Surprisingly, the nail is very porous. Water will easily pass through nails compared to our skin. � e nail may look like a dry, hard plate but it contains about 30 percent water content. � e water content determines how � ex-ible the nail becomes. Using

an ointment based nail con-ditioner will reduce the loss of water.

� e nail consists of six basic parts. � e nail bed, matrix, nail plate, cuticle, ligaments and nail fold. � e nail bed is the portion of skin which the nail plate rests. � e matrix is where the nail is formed. � e nail plate rests on and is attached to the nail bed. � e cuticle is the rough skin around the base of the � nger and toe nails. Special-ized ligaments attach the nail bed and matrix to the un-derlying bone. Nail folds are

folds of skin that surround the nail plate.

Nail growth is a result of nutrition and general health. � e average rate of nail growth is 1/8 of an inch per month. Nails do grow faster in the summer than the winter. Childrens’ nails grow faster than adults. And the nail of the middle � nger grows the fastest while the thumbnail is the slowest. Or-dinarily, the replacement of a nail takes four to six months.

So enjoy your nails and may they complement your smile.

None of us can see what the future holds for us. But you have to make cer-tain assumptions if you’re going to create a strategy for building the resources you’ll need for a comfort-able retirement. But what happens when those as-sumptions prove unrealis-tic?

Unfortunately, many people are wrestling with this very problem. Spe-ci� cally, they plan to work until a certain age — but they leave the work force earlier. Obvi-ously, this can have a big e� ect on a variety of other retirement income factors, such as the amount of money they need to put away each year while they’re still working and the age at which they should start collecting Social Secu-rity and begin tapping into their IRA, 401(k) and other retirement accounts.

Just how big a problem is this? Consider the following statistics from the Employee Bene� t Research Institute’s 2009 Retirement Con� -dence Survey:

• 47 percent of retirees left the work force earlier than planned.

• Of that total, 42 percent did so because of health problems or disability, 34 percent left due to their employers’ downsizing or closure, and 18 percent left to care for a spouse or an-other family member.

So here’s the bottom line: Even if you think you’re going to work until, say, 65, and you want to work until 65, you may be forced to quit at 62, 60 — or even younger. And dur-ing those years you won’t be working, you’re not just losing out on earned income — you’re also not contributing to your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan, and you

might lose your ability to contribute to your IRA as well. At the same time, your retirement lifestyle expenses have begun earlier than you anticipated — and many people � nd that these costs aren’t much, if any, lower than the expenses they incurred while working.

What can you do to help avoid coming up short of the income you’ll need during your retirement years? For one thing, don’t spend a lot of time focusing on those things you can’t control, such as downsizing or an unexpected health crisis or disability. Instead, concentrate on those factors over which you have power. Consider the following:

• Maximize your contributions to your 401(k) and IRA. Each year, put as much as you can a� ord into your IRA and your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan.

• Invest for growth. Include growth-orient-ed investments, such as stocks, in your bal-anced portfolio if appropriate for your objec-tives, risk tolerance and time horizon. While it’s true that growth vehicles will � uctuate in value, you can help reduce the e� ects of vola-tility by buying quality investments and hold-ing them for the long term.

• Create alternative plans. While you may want to construct an investment strategy based on retiring at a certain age, you’ll also want to come up with some alternative sce-narios based on di� erent retirement ages and corresponding di� erences in other factors, such as amounts invested in each year, rate of return, age at which you begin taking Social Security, and so on. A � nancial professional can help you develop these “hypotheticals.”

You can’t predict the future. But you can at least help yourself prepare for those twists of fate that await you as you plan for retirement.

� e water has warmed up but it is still cold enough to slow the � sh down. Remember if you are using arti� cial, present the bait to the � sh as slow as you can. Keep your rod tip at about a sixty-degree angle. As you reel the bait in add slight twitches to the end of the rod to give the bait a more natural look in the water. It can be very tedious but be patient because results are soon to follow.

� e � shing should be good this weekend. � e warming trend will continue with highs in the 70s. We will have a low tide � rst thing in the morning. You will also be able to get the low again in the afternoon due to that extra hour of sunshine.

Also, let’s not forget the opening of spring gobbler season this weekend. If you plan on hunt-ing do not forget about others in the woods. Sometimes you have to be pretty stealthy to entice these birds within shooting range. Some people tend to take camou� age a little overboard and can be very hard to see. Just make sure that what you are shooting at has a red head, long beard (preferably) and spurs on its feet. If you are going to spend this weekend hunting or � shing or anything else for that matter, good luck and be safe out there.
