Library ‘cop’ knows thriller book beat BY RICHARD YAGER

Fairgoers enjoy opening day prices with advanced tickets

eaders visiting the Kendall Branch Library often depend upon Russell Thom, now in his fifth year as its secu-

rity guard. Protection, however, has little to do with how he helps his bookworm buddies. His personal critiques of new best-selling thriller and suspense novels carry special weight because Thom now finds himself in an ideal spot during retirement to tip library acquaintances on the best reads of the moment. “Books provide answers for living,” Thom, 72, said, describing himself as “a voracious reader, always carrying a book with me, wherever I go.

Tips for a safe and joyous holiday season BY KATHERINE FERNÁNDEZ RUNDLE

Miami-Dade State Attorney The holiday shopping season is upon us and unfortunately it is always a peak time for crimes such as home burglaries, thefts, robberies and even muggings. Especially in these tough economic times, I want to share some valuable tips that can help prevent you from becoming the victim of a crime during the holidays. AT HOME • Be extra cautious and lock your doors and windows at all times. • Don’t display gifts and other valuables near windows or doorways where they can be seen. • If you go out in the evening, leave at least one light on and a radio or television so the house looks occupied. • If you go out of town, get an automatic timer for your lights. Ask a neighbor or trusted friend to watch your house and perhaps park their car in your driveway from time to time. • Contact the post office and request your mail not be delivered during the days you will be away. Your carrier will deliver your “held” mail upon your return or you may choose to pick it up at your designated post office branch. • Newspaper deliveries should also be placed on hold while you are away so that they do not pile up and alert passersby that your house is unoccupied. • After Christmas when the gifts have been unwrapped, break down the boxes and fold them so as the words are on the inside. Don’t put the boxes “as is” out on the curb for the trash collectors as this just advertises your newly acquired electronics and other valuables that are now in your home. TIPS FOR SAFE SHOPPING • Always stay alert to your surroundings

and the people around you. Avoid areas where there are people “hanging around” in parking garages, parking lots or the outside of stores. Notify the police or security personnel. • Try to shop before dark if possible and coordinate shopping trips with a friend if you plan to be out late. • Park your car in well-lit areas and never in dark areas, no matter how convenient the spot might be. • Always lock your car doors and windows even if you are only gone for a few minutes. It takes a thief only seconds to steal a car. • Keep packages and other valuables out of public view, preferably locked in the trunk. If you place recent purchases in your trunk and want to continue shopping, move your car to another area. • Have your keys in hand when you return to your car, and always check the interior of your car before you unlock the door to get in. • To discourage purse-snatchers, don’t overburden yourself with packages. • Avoid carrying large amounts of cash. Pay for purchases with a check or credit card whenever possible. • Be extra careful with purses and wallets. Women should carry their purse under their arm with the strap across their body and men should keep their wallet in an inside jacket pocket and not a back trouser pocket. Finally, be sure to teach your children to go only to a store clerk or security guard to ask for help if they should become separated from you while in a store or shopping mall. They should never go into a parking lot alone. I wish you and your family a safe and wonderful holiday season.

What is most important to suspense readers is whether or not John Grisham’s Ford County, short stories based on Grisham’s experiences as an attorney, is up to snuff with his block-busting novels. “Or, whether or not James Patterson is has just reshuffled the same plot in his newest best-seller,” Thom said. That is what his fellow readers want to know during visits to the neighborhood library at 9101 SW 97 Ave., as well as his “idea of a good book to sink into over a rainy weekend,” Thom added. So who tops suspense writing today? “Vince Flynn (Pursuit of Honor) is best, for my money,” Thom declared without hesitation. “Daniel Silva and Lee Childs are right up there with him.” “Each has written a string of books, at least 12 or more, and you can pretty well depend on them for a good read because they like to show the true underside of the world — what’s really happening and why.” His latest pick: “I’m in the middle of The Devil’s Punchbowl by Greg Iles, all about casino gambling covering up horrendous crimes in Natchez, MS. “It’s as good as Sleep No More or 24 Hours… as a shelf browser leaned over to interrupt, asking, “What was that title again?” Kendall Business Association.

Leslie Saiontz had a change of heart in 1984 BY ROBIN KORTH That was around the time that both her first child and the idea for Kidding Around, her children’s clothing and accessories boutique, were born. Up until then Leslie was a young but driven real-estate broker in Miami, looking for, and making, residential apartment deals. Saiontz, a Harvard-educated native Miamian, was a commercial real estate professional, managing more than 20 office buildings on Miami Beach at the start of the 1980s real estate boom. Married, but not on the “baby track,” she was stunned that her newborn had stolen her heart at first glance. She was done for. Good-bye real estate career, hello entrepreneurship. Armed with the idea to open her own retail shop, she decided to learn the business and take a job at a small children’s store in Coconut Grove. Within weeks of her arrival, she found herself as manager, gaining indepth experience that would be invaluable for her future plan. The seeds for a child-oriented business had been sown and the real work would soon begin. Fate intervened to create the opportunity of The Falls, a tropical open-air complex that was the first of its kind in South Florida. Leslie first contemplated opening at the illfated Bakery Center but made a wise decision to instead move to The Falls Shopping Center. Bloomingdale’s became the mall’s first anchor in 1984, and Kidding Around opened its doors that same year. Kidding Around quickly developed a reputation as the “go to” shop for beautiful clothing and accessories for babies through tweens. Building on her early success, Saiontz soon opened Running Around, to add high-quality children’s shoes to her retail offerings at The Falls. For 25 years, the businesses have thrived, and have been a vibrant and vital part of the community, giving back to those most in need. Saiontz’s credo is a simple one: if you care,

Women Mean Business then you give. The Kidding Around Foundation was formed in the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew and supports children’s charities: a partnership with Soles 4 Souls is ongoing, as is the collection of used clothing and shoes at the store for distribution to those in need. Her support of children’s causes is extensive and generous. There’s rarely a school silent auction or raffle where there’s not an item from Kidding Around or Running Around, compliments of the stores. In addition to her many philanthropic activities, Saiontz pays special attention to educational causes. A board member of Teach For America, it’s just one of her efforts to increase educational opportunities in America, and her office wall bears hand drawn posters and plaques alike, offering thanks for her support. The key to her success? She has a wellorganized list: • Do something you love. Be proud of it and stay committed to it through the good and bad times. • Be open to change; take risks and try things. • Be a business “person” not a business “woman.” Being a woman is not a handicap – you can be tough and demanding without giving up your feminine side. • Make your business a united effort; embrace your employees so through training and experience they reflect your vision. • Community is important — be involved, and your community will support you. • Keep your family involved; it’s more than business, it’s your life.

Please, don’t feed the bears! BY RODNEY BARRETO Chairman, Florida Freshwater Fish & Wildlife Commission

Here’s a news flash: Florida black bears do den in the winter and prepare for the cooler temperatures by loading up on calories. That’s why we’re hearing and reading about bears in neighborhoods encountering humans more than during other times of the year. Bears are eating machines during autumn. From now until sometime in December, most of our bears will be out foraging for whatever they can find — berries, bugs, acorns and our garbage, if it’s available. They’ll also devour cat food and dog food if left out in the open. This feeding craze is called hyperphagia. Black bears forage for up to 18 hours a day, sometimes consuming 20,000 calories. The black bear may seem slow, but bears are pretty smart. Why bother with the berry bush when the remnants of last night’s pizza sits tantalizingly available in an unsecured garbage can brought out to the curb the night before pickup? No wonder black bears wander into neighborhoods. The dog food out on the screened porch at the neighbor’s house is going to provide many more calories than the small acorns in the backyard. Easy pickings, for sure; but is it good for the bear? Is it good for us? The answer to both questions is an emphatic “No.” Bears want to and should be in the wild, where they will find the food they need for the winter months. And we certainly will be better off without a large wild animal wandering near our children and our pets. Sometimes folks refer to humanbear conflicts as the “bear problem.” As I see it, bears don’t have a problem – they just have a natural instinct to load up on food. In fact, I admire their resourcefulness in finding the easiest source by using their finely tuned sense of smell. Anything from grease to scented candles can attract the bear, and an unsecured garbage can is an easy target for an even easier meal. Today, 2,500 to 3,000 bears roam

FWC REPOR T Florida, but the species remains threatened. While habitat loss and fragmentation are well-documented in Florida, there are still wild areas for bears to roam. Bears will stay in the woods, if there is no reason to come out. While wildlife-resistant containers are an excellent tool in reducing conflicts, the cans are expensive, and they are often not available for individual purchase. It falls to the waste service provider to take on those extra costs to offer some relief to their customers. In Franklin County in the Panhandle, Waste Pro voluntarily ordered the wildlife-resistant cans and began distributing them to interested residents for a small monthly fee. We’re hoping other waste service providers around the state will follow their example. In residential neighborhoods where food is easy to get, residents face a two-fold problem. They are responsible for cleaning up the mess made by the wildlife, and they face close encounters with wild animals. You can minimize or eliminate these problems by securing attractants such as garbage in wildlife-resistant containers and by removing or cleaning up other attractants in the yard. If followed, these simple changes can be successful in protecting the health of Florida’s diverse wildlife and its residents. The FWC is working with waste-service providers, such as Waste Pro, across the state to launch cost-effective solutions to this shared problem. For more information on wildliferesistant containers and to find out what you can do to avoid bear conflicts, go to <MyFWC.com/Bear>. Call your local waste service provider and ask the company to provide the cans that will help keep bears where they belong – in the wild. Rodney Barreto is chairman of the Florida Freshwater Fish and Game Commission and a principle in the Coral Gables firm of Barreto Cunningham May Dudley Maloy. He may be contacted by addressing email to <Rbarreto@bcmpartners.com>.

If a financial scam has not affected you personally, you can be fairly sure that one has affected a friend, neighbor or loved one in the very recent past. That’s right, scams are out there and if we’re not cautious we’ll be taken in, just like the thousands of others who fall prey each day. The old adage, “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is!” rings true today more than ever before. Some scams are portrayed as honest mistakes or “too good to be true scenarios.” Other scams use “begs” to garner personal, private information for misuse. They are presented under the guise of offers for help or protection. Here are a few examples: • A seller advertises a car for sale on e-Bay. The seller receives an offer for the car and a deal is struck. Soon the seller receives a check in the mail for a sum substantially more than the agreed upon selling price. The seller contacts the buyer and is told, “Oh, my mistake, I must have been thinking of another deal. Just send me a cashier’s check for the difference along with the title and everything will be fine.” The challenge is that the buyer’s check is bogus, a fraud, a forgery; and by the time the seller gets a call from their financial institution that the buyer’s check was returned, the buyer is long gone with the money from the seller’s cashier’s check and the title. Sometimes the car has even been shipped! • This is a scam something like #1. An individual responds to a want ad for particular job. The employer and employee agree on a position and the prospective employer mails the employee a check for “up-front, paid-ahead first-month’s salary” which, of course, we all know does not happen in the real world. The only caveat is that the employee mail back to the employer a cahier’s check for taxes, insurance and employee benefits which equals 1/3 of the upfront pay. You guessed it, the employer’s check is no good and by the time the employee gets the call from the bank that their first month’s upfront pay check was returned, the employee’s “taxes and benefits cashier’s check” is cashed and the money long gone!

DOLLAR$ & $ENSE • Your financial institution’s alleged security department calls and wants to make sure you’re protected from a recent rash of scams regarding plastic cards. In order to help you the security person needs to verify certain pieces of information regarding your plastic card. The security person may already have some information on you to make you feel more comfortable talking with them. But, the catch is when you tell the scammer what they don’t know like your card number, expiration date, PIN, and the super powerful 3 digit security number on the back of your card at the end of your signature line. By the time you get a thank you from the supposed security person and hang up the phone the scam will have already commenced. The perpetrator will use your information on their own to buy items, get cash, order items online, etc., or they may just sell your information to another charlatan for quick cash and the next fraudster will commence the illicit transactions. • This scam is like #3, only it happens online and is called a Phish. The typical scenario is that you receive an email allegedly from your financial institution’s security department. The email says, “Your card could be compromised and information from you is necessary to ascertain the extent of danger.” You’re then asked to enter your name, account number, PIN and that ever important, secure 3 digit number from the back of the card. Just as above, no sooner have you hit the send key than the scam commences and the unauthorized, illegal purchases begin. There are so many other frauds that are happening every day and I wish we had time to discuss many more. However, the best practice to make sure you’re not the next victim is to be alert, be aware, slow things down, ask questions and, if you feel it necessary, call your financial institution. Most importantly, never give out your private financial information over the phone or online unless you initiated the call. Even then, make sure you know who you’re speaking with and that the information given by you will be used for the purposes intended by you.

2009 BMW Z4 is all new with retractable hardtop Ron Beasley AUTOMOTIVE EDITOR

LET’S TALK CARS The 2009 version of BMW’s Z4 two-seat sports car is really something special. It’s the second generation of the Z4 (the Z3 debuted in 1996) and it’s an all-new vehicle, right up to the nifty retractable hardtop. The new retractable hardtop model replaces both the roadster and coupe versions of previous generation Z4 models. The new retractable hardtop closes and opens in 20 seconds with the press of a button and provides better security, rigidity, rear visibility, quiet and protection from the weather than was available with the old ragtop. This latest Z4 is built on the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but it’s about six inches longer in the tail and the lines are softer. Chalk up the added length to the need to accommodate the hardware for the retractable hardtop. This Z4 sits low to the ground and has classic roadster styling, with a long hood and a short decklid, with

curves and creases that caress the front fenders and curve to the rear wheels. The 2009 Z4 comes in two models, the sDrive30i and sDrive35i (sDrive means rear wheel drive). The 30i is distinguished by the black vanes in the grille and a silver slash across the outer lower bars, while the 35i has matte-silver grille vanes. The sDrive30i (18/25) starts at $45,750 and comes with a 255-hp 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission; a six-speed sport automatic with paddle shifters is an option for an extra $1,325. The sDrive35i (17/25 mpg) is a bit pricier at $51,650, but you get a little more bang for your buck. It comes with a 300-hp 3.0liter inline six with twin turbochargers and is mated to a six-speed manual tranny, with a seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual gearbox as an option for an extra $1,525. As for comparables, the new Z4 is a slightly longer than the Mercedes-Benz SLK and Audi TT, but shorter than the Porsche Boxster. The sport seats are tight, but comfortable and there is plenty of room for two adults. The head and legroom really are quite spacious for a two-seat sports car and the standard manual seats and tilt-telescoping steering column allow for enough

adjustment to accommodate most drivers. On the inside, everything is driverfocused, with easy-to-read white-on-black analog instrumentation, functional controls and a nice combination of sport and elegance. The 30i comes with black leatherette upholstery, while the 35i offers real leather and four color options. Low-gloss brushed aluminum or ash wood trim is standard on the 35i and may be ordered for the 30i.

Audio options include HD radio, satellite radio, glovebox-mounted six-disc DVD changer, iPod and USB ports and a sound system with 14 speakers and an amplifier capable of delivering 650 watts.

The pagan origins of Christmas Chef Jan OWNER, TWO CHEFS RESTAURANT

COOKING WITH JAN Many of our modern Christmas traditions began hundreds of years before Christ was born. Some of these traditions originated more than 4,000 years ago. The addition of Christ to the celebration of the winter solstice did not occur until 300 years after Christ died, and as late as 1800 some devout sects, like the Puritans, forbade their members from celebrating Christmas because it was considered a pagan holiday. So what is the history behind these traditions? The Christmas tree is derived from several solstice traditions. The Romans decked their halls with garlands of laurel and placed candles in live trees to decorate for the celebration of saturnalia. In Scandinavia, they hung apples from evergreen trees at the winder solstice as a reminder that spring and summer will

come again. The evergreen tree was the special plant of their sun god, Baldur. Exchanging gifts at a winter celebration is also pre-Christian and is from the Roman Saturnalia. They would exchange good-luck gifts called Setae (lucky fruits). A big feast was inevitable, just like we have today. Mistletoe is from an ancient Druid custom at the winter solstice. Mistletoe was considered a divine plant and it symbolized love and peace. The tradition of kissing under the mistletoe is Druid in origin. Even the date of Christmas, Dec. 25, was borrowed from another religion. At the time Christmas was created in AD 320, Mithraism was very popular. The early Christian church had become weary of futile efforts to stop people from celebrating the solstice and the birthday of Mithraism, the Persian sun god. Mithra’s birthday was Dec. 25. So, the Pope decided to make Jesus’ official birthday coincide with Mithra’s birthday. So, if you are celebrating any of the western traditions this season, remember that you are feasting on borrowed traditions in order to celebrate the birth of

DAIRYLESS CELERY ROOT SOUP with chicken livers, granny smith apples and thyme. 1/4 cup diced bacon lardoons 6 sprig thyme 3 cup diced (small) celery root (peeled ) 2 quarts chicken stock Juice from 1 lemon Salt and pepper to taste Soup Cook the bacon in a medium sauce pan until fat is rendered, add 6 sprigs of thyme along with the celery root, add stock and simmer for 20 minutes, remove and discard thyme sprigs, puree soup until smooth, strain and season with lemon juice and salt and pepper, set aside and reheat before serving Apples 4 tiny Granny Smith apples (peeled and sliced into 1 inch rounds) 1/4 cup melted butter 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar Brush the apples with the melted butter and bake in a preheated 400-degree oven for aprox 20 minutes or until caramalized and tender. Remove from pan and deglaze with the apple cider. Chicken livers 4 chicken livers Olive oil Salt and pepper Saute livers aprox 2 minutes on each side, season, set a side, cut into quarters. Assembly Place apple slices and livers in 4 soup bowls, ladle the heated soup over; then garnish and sprinkle a little chopped parsley and serve.

RACK OF LAMB with cumin scented porcini mushrooms, golden raisins and mashed potatoes. 2 cups sliced porcini mushrooms 1 1/2 tablespoon butter Pinch of cumin 1 tbl spoon rice vinegear 1/4 cup water Olive oil 1/2 cup golden raisins. Mushrooms Sautee mushrooms in the butter along with cumin for aprox 2 minutes, add vinegar, water, olive oil and raisins, and cook for 5 minutes, Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Lamb Trim the rack for excess fat and sinew, season with salt and pepper, brown the rack in a hot skillet with a splash of olive oil, move into a preheated 375-degree hot oven and roast for aprox 15 minutes, or until cooked medium-rare. Let rest 5 minutes flipping it over (back and forth) to let the juices run.. Mashed potatoes I don’t think I need to give a recipe for mashed potatoes, but a golden rule: Add salt only after cooked, use cream cheese and sour cream instead of butter and cream (just an idea). Assembly Place a dollop of mashed potatoes in middle of plate, slice a double-cut lamb chop and place on top; ladle the porcini mushrooms and raisin concoction on top. Happy holidays!

In honor of Veterans Day, the Assurant Employee Activities Committee (EAC) sponsored a “Care Package Drive” from Nov. 2 to Nov. 13. The drive, led by Violeta Corzo, Betty Corzo and Jeannie Aragon-Cruz, was a huge success filling 24 boxes with magazines, snacks, board games and lots of cards from Assurant associates and the children at the Assurant schools. The boxes were shipped to two units in Iraq and a unit in Afghanistan. Units were picked from the AnySoldier.com website and represented the Army and Marines. “My sister, Violeta, and I started sending care packages through AnySoldier.com in 2003,” Betty Corzo said. “Assurant got

involved a few years ago and began an annual troop drive through AnySoldier.com. It has become an annual event and I feel extremely humbled and honored to be a part of such a great yearly event. Assurant’s south Miami-Dade campus, comprised of Assurant Solutions and Assurant Specialty Property, employs approximately 2,000 associates. Assurant Solutions and Assurant Specialty Property are part of Assurant Inc.

Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom went off the air years ago. No matter. On a now regular basis it seems I get my own live version of the show on my backyard porch. Perhaps you’ll recall my story of how a garden snake wound his way onto my screened-in patio back in June. I went to extraordinary lengths to escort him out the door without harming him. It involved a cookie sheet, a litter box scoop and a good dose of compassion. It didn’t end there. Let me begin with a prequel. Remember that God-awful year when three hurricanes hit South Florida? Let’s see, there were Katrina, Rita and Wilma. Quite a few of us lost our trees, windows and patio screens. In fact, my back porch enclosure had so many holes in the top; it looked like metallic Swiss cheese. I was just happy that the rips were confined to the top panels, ensuring that my three cats would remain safely enclosed. I took my time getting those top panels fixed. Big mistake. A few months later, my boy looked out the window and yelled, “Mommy, Blinken has an owl in his mouth!” “No, son, that’s impossible.” “I’m telling you, Blinken has an owl in his mouth!” He grabbed my hand and led me to the window. I looked out and saw my darling, loving, wouldn’t-hurt-a-fly feline with his jaws firmly clamped onto a tiny screech owl. I let out a guttural sound of horror so primal; thereafter I was known as “Screech-Mom”. The next few minutes are a blur, but suffice it to say my husband was able to extract the owl from kitty’s mouth. Thank goodness he was still alive. We put him in a shoe box on the driveway to see if he was well enough to fly away on his own. Nope. The next day, we took him to the Birds of Prey Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, next to the Miami Museum of Science. What a treasure this place is. The volunteers called us that very day to let us know that the owl had suffered only a broken wing, and would be as good as new in a few weeks. When he was fully recovered and ready to be released back into the wild, a volunteer actually brought him to our home. We all gathered in the backyard and she gently gave him to my son. She instructed him to lift up his hands and slowly open them. He did just that, and the tiny creature immediately flew back into the trees from whence he came. It was one of those moments I’ll never forget. I spontaneously broke into a verse from that ’80s song that goes: “Take these broken wings, and let him fly again, learn to live so free.” That

Life With kelly prompted the stink-eye response from both my husband and son, but the volunteer chuckled. All the top screens had since been repaired, so the last thing I expected was that my back porch would continue to be a beacon for all creatures big and small. Maybe I should have broken out into song on a daily basis. That seems to repel both man and beast. Cut to this summer and the snake saga. After I got rid of the little fella in my not so graceful way, I kept wondering how the screens were getting torn down the bottom allowing all these interlopers in. I was still rattled (you’ll pardon the pun) after the snake extraction, so a week later I asked my son to do a reconnaissance mission to make sure the porch was all clear before I went for a swim. “You’ll never believe it Mom. There’s another snake out there and he’s right by the door. This one has a pattern on his back.” “Uh-oh.” I grabbed a shovel and soon spied the offender, unable to determine whether or not he was poisonous. He did have very peculiar markings, so I knew I couldn’t take a chance. I positioned the shovel behind his head and proceeded to Marie Antoinette him. I wasn’t proud, but I knew it had to be done. Two weeks later, a wild peacock came a calling and perched on my roof. In what can only be described as wild coincidence or bitter irony, I was laid off from NBC, otherwise known as the peacock network. The fun doesn’t end there. Last week, my husband couldn’t sleep and decided to make himself a 4 a.m. snack. When he turned on the kitchen light, he looked out the window and there sitting on the ledge helping himself to the cat’s food was an enormous raccoon. Nervy little devil. He gave my husband one of those “Yeah, what do you want?” looks and kept right on eating. He got the bum’s rush, or should I say “brush”, thanks to hubby’s acumen with a broom. From a deep sleep, I was awakened when my husband yelled, “And stay off of this porch or next time I’m going to wake up my wife and have her sing to you!” I don’t know if it was that threat, a trip to Home Depot’s screen department, or the fact that we now keep our cat’s food indoors at night, but we’ve had no more uninvited guests. It seems like we’ve been through them all. Wait. What’s that noise? I’ll investigate and get back to you.

BY VINORA HAMILTON

In 2008, the Florida Kindergarten Readiness Screener (FLKRS) conducted a study measuring the development of emergent literacy skills in children ages 0 to 5. The results of Miami-Dade County’s screening revealed that 31.1 percent of the students were considered as moderate to high risk in the area of Alphabet Recognition, 40.7 percent as moderate/high risk in the area of Sound Recognition (phonics), and 14.1 percent were identified as not being classroom ready. In an effort to aid in the development of early literacy skills among children, ages 0 to 5, the Miami-Dade Public Library System has launched Reading Ready, a program aimed at parents, families and caregivers. Families and caregivers joined staff at all 48 libraries throughout the system on Monday, Nov. 16, for a simultaneous launch, and a special celebration at the International Mall Branch, where parents and children had the chance to explore the new early literacy center, a model for future centers in branches throughout the system. The early literacy center offers

materials and an interactive play area that engages adults and children in the six early literacy skills that are needed for learning to read. At each branch, staff shared resources and demonstrated ways in which parents and caregivers can teach the skills at home using the appropriate books, DVD’s, CDs, crafts, finger plays and nursery rhymes. “The library system is committed to meeting the informational, educational, and recreational needs of the community and we’re pleased to offer this new program,” said library director Raymond Santiago. “We encourage all families to take advantage of it.” Judy Oh, a frequent visitor to the International Mall Branch, along with daughter Jennifer, 22 months, joined other families for the storytime. “This new program adds an exciting component to the storytime that was being offered by the library before,” Oh said. “I really like the finger plays and the online resources.” For additional details on Reading Ready visit online at <www.mdpls.org>; call 305375-BOOK (2665), or visit any branch of the library system.

Women who have liposuction to get rid of belly fat or jiggly thighs often are afraid that they might gain weight and ruin their desired toned look. So the folks at Soluna MD, the med-spa located at 4251 Salzedo St., Suite 1330, in the Village of Merrick Park, have developed a weight-loss program to help clients keep the extra pounds at bay. Called Soluna Slim MD, the program is a medically supervised weight loss and wellness system that can help clients meet their weight loss goals or help them maintain their weight. The program was developed by a team of doctors and industry specialists. “This is something we’re incorporating now because there is a need for it,” says Linda Alamo, Soluna’s operations manager. “Out of that need, we developed the weight loss program.” Clients who join the program can choose from several options. “We have two different ones,” Alamo says. “You have people who are reluctant to go for little shakes and bars. We have an option for people who want real food.” For those who choose the supplement program, there is a phase out that will wean the dieters off the supplements and help them learn how to maintain the weight loss with regular foods. “You have to have constant follow-up,” says Dr. John Chang, an experienced surgeon who performs all liposuctions at Soluna. He says developing the weight-loss program just made sense for the med spa.

The key to weight loss and weight maintenance is behavior modification. With the Soluna Slim system, clients are kept on track with frequent follow-up. The program also ensures the client stays healthy with blood pressure checks and blood work. The weight-loss program, used in conjunction with the Smartlipo Ultra Laser Body Sculpting, can be quite effective. Smartlipo is a revolutionary new procedure that melts fat that is then sucked out. The procedure is done with a local anesthesia and the recovery time is quick – you can go out again the next day. Chang has done more than 2,100 of the Smartlipos in two years, roughly 25 cases a month. “This has become my niche,” he says. “I have a lot of experience with the machine.” In fact, the number of cases he does caught the eye of the laser’s manufacturer, so the company contacted Soluna to see if Chang is interested in training other doctors in the procedure. Smartlipo Ultra is done along with an ultrasound to make sure the sculpting treatment removes the fat effectively. “We can remove up to four liters (of fat) per procedure,” Alamos says. While for most people only one treatment is needed with the Smartlipo, if more treatments are needed, they can be done a week or so later. Soluna MD offers a full range of cosmetic services, from SmarlLipo to Botox to hair removal and PermaLift. For more information call 305-446-0440 or go to <www.SolunaMD.com>.

Despite bad unemployment news investors still pushing envelope

Al Sunshine 4 YOUR MONEY Despite continuing bad news about growing unemployment, investors are still slowly pushing the envelope. There’s growing evidence that retail improvement is coming from the auto sector, initially boosted by the “Cash for Clunkers” program. Business is improving for General Motors in particular. Despite losing $1.2 billion dollars from their post bankruptcy, they are doing better than expected. Starting soon, the company plans to pay back the first $1.2 billion of their federal bailout. Federal Reserve chair Ben Bernanke’s recent forecast anticipates slow growth for the United States economy through the first half of 2010. He also expects low interest rates to remain a key part of the Federal Reserves recovery plan. The commodities markets are seeing solid gains. Gold is setting new record highs almost daily. Investment and retirement accounts are looking better than in previous months. Still, the overall economy is in its early stages of recovery and it may remain fragile for some time. The Federal Reserve Board reported that the overall United States industrial production grew by 0.1 percent in October. That’s the lowest gain reported over the past three months. With home sales still depressed, home improvement stores like Home Depot and Lowes are reporting deepening third quarter losses. Home Depot just upgraded its latest fourth quarter forecasts on recent signs of an improving economy. While interest rates are at record lows, overall consumer prices are growing. According to the Bureau of Labor

Statistics, there has been a growth of approximately 0.3 percent. Why the sudden hike? Blame October’s rising wholesale oil prices that are pushing retail gas prices up by about 1.9 percent, and causing food prices to increase. Vegetables are up by 24 percent and fresh fruit is up 7 percent. Looking for bargains during the holiday cooking season? Baked goods have been lowered by about 0.5 percent, beef 2.7 percent, and pork 1 percent. Unfortunately, turkey went up about 3 percent from last October. Still, the overall Thanksgiving dinner prices are lower than last year. As supermarkets cut Thanksgiving prices to lure back customers, expect to see turkey for as low as 49 cents a pound, or even cheaper. President Barrack Obama now is openly discussing how the deepening federal deficit, low interest rates and a weak dollar could team up to cause a so-called, “Double-Dipper” recession next year. However, the President seems convinced that it will not happen. He is reluctant to expand the federal deficit any further through additional “Economic Stimulus Spending.” Why the sudden concern about another possible economic downturn? Growing unemployment is keeping consumers away from the checkout counters. Personal spending remains flat as families struggle to stay in their homes. For the first time since the summer, residential construction has fallen. Though record low interest rates and expanded tax credits are available for homebuyers, new mortgage applications are dropping. Yet, there is still a lot of pent-up demand to put more money into the markets. It’s a popular option for investors who are worried about a possible “Double-Dipper” recession next year, after seeing the current mixed signals on the direction of the economy.
