LOCAL NORTH LAKE
The City of Tavares and the Tavares Business Development Committee continued its quarterly hosting of local artists on Friday, May 6th. This gathering continues to grow momentum, with art appreciators coming out to stroll the downtown blocks and explore the Tavares Entertainment District while perusing the exhibits presented by local artists.
LOCAL SOUTH LAKE
This summer over 200 students from Denmark, France, Russia, Spain and Sweden are arriving to the Lake County and Orlando areas to better their English skills and experience life in the States. Each of these students will be staying with volunteer host families for the few short weeks they are in Florida. While they are with their hosts during the evenings and weekend, the week days are carefully planned with morning English classes and daily afternoon activities such as bowling, going to the beach, playing American sports, and outings to places such as Wekiva Springs, Daytona, St Petersburg and Orlando.
Feature
Communicating with business leaders in community meetings increases notoriety amongst society members. Regular involvement in community affairs sets a tone of reliability as others watch businesses grow from the ground up. There are networking groups throughout Lake County that are at the ready to boost community involvement.
Spotlight
Lake County’s Lakeridge Winery and Vineyards is the largest producing winery in the state of Florida yielding over 450,000 gallons of wine, and has a history dating back over twenty years. They have earned great notoriety with their fun events, tasty tours, and award winning selection of wines.
Dining & entertainment
Food and fun was plentiful, with the 2nd Annual Mount Dora Blues and Wine Festival, held on the gracious waterfront of Lakeside Inn and the 10th Annual Taste of Mount Dora, held at Lake Receptions. These annual events continue to grow in popularity with good reason!

“E
verybody has a calling, and your real job in life is to figure out what that is and get about the business of doing it.” – Oprah Winfrey Yes. I really am going to quote Oprah this month. I have never been what could be considered an avid Oprah watcher, but I have tuned in over the years. I have tremendous respect for Oprah and feel she is an inspiration to me and many others. I think she empowers women, but doesn’t stop there. I think she has also made a difference in the lives of countless men and children. Her message in her final show really got me reflecting on my own life. She talked about people finding their passion in life and challenged them to use that passion to make a difference. She referred to “passion” as a “calling.” I have thought about her words since that afternoon and how they apply to me. Owning and publishing a magazine was certainly not a path I ever envisioned for myself. I joke that I accidentally fell on a contract with an ink pen in my hand and when I stood up I owned a magazine. While that is obviously not the whole story, it did feel like a whirlwind. Life threw me some lemons and I decided to fumble through making lemonade. However, when I look back and when I started thinking about my own passion, I realized it IS this magazine. I don’t necessarily mean the paper itself, but what it stands for. It stands for a community that I truly love. It stands for the people making up this community. It stands as a reminder that there is so much good happening here. It stands to bring people together to keep making great things happen. While I am certainly no Oprah Winfrey, I hope through the magazine I am making a difference. I think this IS my calling and I want to get about the business of doing it. Maybe by bringing awareness of needs or rallying the community for a cause. Perhaps by bringing hope when things seem hopeless. I want to help those who feel helpless. Oprah also acknowledged she was a part of a team which accomplished amazing things. This community is my team and I have been privileged to witness the miraculous things which can be accomplished with teamwork. This community is blessed to have so many people who consider Lake County their passion/calling. I hope all of our readers think about their own passion and find a way to make a difference by following it. Thanks, Oprah, for the years of laughter and tears. I can agree with those who said it before me, “This world is a better place because you were in it.” And isn’t that all that any of us can really hope to have said about us after we are gone?

Cleveland Indians draft Montverde Academy’s Francisco Lindor With the eighth overall pick, the Tribe selected 17-year-old switch-hitting shortstop Francisco Lindor from Montverde Academy. It’s the first time the Indians used their first pick in the draft on a high school player since 2001, when they selected pitcher Dan Denham. Baseball America had Lindor ranked as the seventh-best player and third-best position player in the draft. Lindor was born in Puerto Rico and moved to Florida when he was 12. In 53 at-bats for Montverde Academy this season, Lindor hit .528 with six home runs, 13 RBI and 20 stolen bases.

few years ago, students from Spain came to the Clermont area as part of the Education First’s Homestay program. They had such a successful event that the students and families asked for more. Since that time, more students from more countries are coming to stay with volunteer host families through the EF Educational Homestay Programs. This summer over 200 students from Denmark, France, Russia, Spain and Sweden are arriving to the Lake County and Orlando areas to better their English skills and experience life in the States. Each of these students will be staying with volunteer host families for the few short weeks they are in Florida. While they are with their hosts during the evenings and weekend, the week days are carefully planned with morning English classes and daily afternoon activities such as bowling, going to the beach, playing American sports, and outings to places such
14

as Wekiva Springs, Daytona, St Petersburg and Orlando. “This is an education for the whole family! Not everyone has the opportunity to extensively travel to other countries and this homestay program is like bringing all the benefits of travel to you. My family has learned so much about other cultures and customs from our students. It’s like having a personal tour of another country,” says Kathy Branan, who is an active host family. “I love the fact that we are able to easily keep in communication with past students through the networks such as Skype or Facebook. Someday when we are able to go abroad, we will have someone we know to visit and can spend time with all the students that we have made friends with through the years.” Host families provide students with a bed, although they are not required to have their own room, they can share with family siblings within a 3 year age span. Meals
would also be provided by the host family; breakfast and dinner at the home and then send the student with a sack lunch for the weekdays. Buses transport the students to their classes and activities so families would bring their student to the most convenient designated stop in the mornings and pick them up in the evenings. How families spend their time in the evening is up to them; kid’s ball games, conversation, family board games, place of worship and even grocery shopping are all great ways to show the student our American family culture and promote conversational English. “It’s not the size of your home, it’s not your money or what you can buy for them, it’s your heart and your love that’s important,” stated Debbi Gilbert, one of the EF organizers. “We bring communities together and build memorable relationships with passion, care and excellence, one international student at a time.”
Host families come in all shapes and sizes; whether you are a single, young family, or an empty nester you can apply to host an international student. Applications and home visits must be completed prior to being matched with a student so don’t delay on your opportunity to host! Host families are urgently needed for groups arriving at the end of June and first of week of July! If you would like to participate in this great educational opportunity, please contact Judy Ley or Maryann True to set up an appointment for a home/family visit.

Feature» networking groups by Cyndi Long, who states, “We value your time; every member speaks at every meeting.” With five chapters meeting once a week in Leesburg, Winter Park, Ocoee/ Windermere, The Villages and Mt. Dora, it is easy to see how four short years have grown such a vast network. “TNG is a TRUE networking group focusing on grass roots networking. Members get to know each other on a personal level and refer business to other members. People refer and use people they know and trust,” says Long. In fact, one newcomer utilized eight of the businesses in TNG to get their own business successfully up and running. www. tangerinenetworkinggroup.com 407-7587214
Networking Groups Their Value and How They Work for You Story by: Marion E. Wildey
A
s society evolves, the community struggles to keep bonds close, even as we have created simpler, yet sophisticated ways of living. The intricacies of our lives have become so complicated that we can communicate from home and never have personal interactions, which doesn’t improve business, or community affairs. There is something poignant about one-onone interactions that seals a bond of trust, and for reasons unknown, we need faceto-face interface to cultivate believability. Business can be tricky, as everything relies on an outstanding reputation, shared most effectively by word of mouth. The spread of business esteem can be both uplifting and, equally destructive when shared through each synapse of human alliances. Over the last handful of years, humankind has developed electronic communication that keeps friends and family in check, manifested through social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and MySpace. While these sites keep people in touch, and offer a great wealth of knowledge when asked of the whole, in terms of business advertising, these sites are supplementary. Communicating with business leaders in community meetings increases notoriety amongst society members. Regular involvement in community affairs sets a tone of reliability as others watch businesses grow from the ground up. There are networking groups throughout Lake County that are at the ready to boost community involvement.

South Lake Business Leaders “are all small business owners who are trying to grow our business one lead at time. Individually we take pride in the integrity we possess as business owners and as a group we have surrounded ourselves with others that practice the same work ethics. We have a member who is a mobile mechanic that has tripled his business from the leads he has received from being part of this group,” says April Johnson of SBL. A unique facet of SBL is that one half of all member dues are donated to the South Lake Boys and Girls Club, which helps fund a viable organization, and promotes active community involvement. Meetings are Thursdays from 11:30 – 1:00 pm at IHOP-Clermont. slblclermont@ gmail.com. South Lake Chamber’s ‘First Friday Chamber Connection’, is a facilitated event for Chamber members to meet with attendees on a one-on-one basis. Ray Villegas thinks that, “In ‘teaching’ about the essence of true networking, we always stress for people to take a ‘givers gain’ approach. That is, look to refer business to other people, and the karma will be returned back to you ten-fold over time. Look to build bridges between others, and get them referring business to each other. As [the] circle of contacts and colleagues grows, make sure to help others grow their contact base as well.” specialevents@southlakechamber-fl.com 352-394-4191 Tangerine Networking Group was founded
Tavares Chamber of Commerce has a luncheon on the second Tuesday of the month, and offers attendees the opportunity to present a two-minute commercial about their business. Director of the Tavares Chamber, Colleen McGinley, says, “Before and after lunch, networking with each other is valuable and extensive. I believe face-to-face networking helps to build trust and confidence in a business relationship. You will do business with people you know and trust.” The Chamber organizes and coordinates the attendees, and ensures that everyone who wants to speak is able to do so. The monthly Tavares meetings have seen an increase in membership, and businesses
are getting more traffic because of the face-to-face meetings. McGinley says, “The most rewarding experience is that at least six attendees confided that they had learned to develop their commercial because of this luncheon. They realized they didn’t have that professional response ready when meeting new clients in the past and that this helped them develop one.” www.tavareschamber. com 352. 343. 2531 “Considering today’s ‘time-poverty’ struggle among business people, social media can be utilized to further relationships without being actually face-to-face with someone. [But], you can never discount the power of chemistry. I don’t think science or psychology understands why we get along better with some people compared to others, but it definitely happens. And this chemistry for the most part can only be determined in person,” says Villegas, of the South Lake Chamber. Never underestimate the power of the spoken word, for it truly is influential, especially when it can make or break a business’ reputation. When used advantageously, networking can serve to increase business based upon patrons real experiences, and in turn, they tell their friends, and those friends tell their friends, and so on and so forth. In one quick moment business has skyrocketed!

Spotlight - Lakeridge Winery and Vineyard
Lakeridge Winery and Vineyard
Carrying the Tradition of America’s First Wine Story by Marion E. Wildey Photos provided by Lakeridge Winery
W
ine dates back thousands of years to the Mesopotamian civilization, was documented in the Bible, spanned Greek and Roman cultures, and before corks were used, has been preserved with olive oil to prevent evaporation over centuries. Frequently the average American thinks of wine as being produced in Europe, or closer to home in the western state of California. While these locations seem to be the most notable when sipping on the aged grape elixir, Florida has a history dating back to a century before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock. Spanish settlers found the climate and lush vegetation supporting a healthy crop of native East coast grapevines growing wild. The Spanish harvested the muscadine grape and created the first “American” wine out of Muscadinia rotundifolia, which has two extra chromosomes giving it some unique health characteristics. Lake County’s Lakeridge Winery and Vineyards is the largest producing winery in the state of Florida yielding over 450,000 gallons of wine, and has a history dating back over twenty years. Home is where the heart is; things prepared homemade taste the best; and family has to take you in. Adages are repeated over generations because they ring true, and all apply to familyowned and operated, Lakeridge Winery and Vineyard, which grew out of Gary Cox’s dream. His travels with his wife visiting vineyards in Europe and the

The Annual Wine and Seafood event to benefit the Autism Society raised $8,000; very significant for a newer event. Don’t miss out on upcoming events; visit the calendar on www.lakeridgewinery.com. The Saturdays in July are dedicated to the summer music fest, and is free to attend. During all the festivals, the winery tour and samplings are open, too.
US, prompted him to try his hand at cultivating his own crops, which he did in Tallahassee at the Lafayette Vineyard. Five years later in 1988, Cox was offered the opportunity to open a vineyard in Central Florida, and eventually moved all to the Clermont location. Employees of the vineyard have been there well over a decade because it doesn’t feel like work, instead they go to work because, like Sales/ Event/ Marketing Manager Kyle Johnson commented, “I feel like I’m a part of something special.” The pride and care exhibited by employees touches customers and visitors as well. Johnson has seen surveys returned from regular vineyard visitors and noted that they had the best time at Lakeridge. The winery is definitely a tourist destination, and residents bring their guests back repeatedly. “It’s good to see the success of a pure Florida product,” says Johnson. The retail market has recently extended throughout the state, not just the local area. The tradition the Spaniards began at least three centuries before California even became a state,
is continued with the San Sebastien Winery, which opened in 1996 in historic Saint Augustine. Son, Charles Cox formed such a great partnership with his dad that he took on Sales, Special Events, Marketing and Public Relations for their sister vineyard. While wine-making has evolved from foot stomping festivals marking the harvest, traditionally the feet have had the truest feel for separating the grape from the skin and seeds for juice extraction. This process actually dates back to 200 B.C. in Rome, but the interest in grape stomping gained notoriety when Lucille Ball was viewed stomping grapes in Italy on her show, “I Love Lucy.” Growing health regulations and the idea of someone’s feet touching the grapes eventually put a halt to traditional grape stomping, and it costs a lot less to simply run the grapes through the press. While wineries hold grape stomping festivals, the grapes used do not get bottled, usually they are grapes that would otherwise not make the cut. Lakeridge Winery invites the public out for the harvest festival from 10am to 5pm on June 17th and 18th, and 11am to 5pm on the 19th. There will be over eighty vendors, live music and of course, try your hand (feet) at some good oldfashioned grape stomping. There is a $2 donation for the fairgrounds and proceeds go to benefit the Hospice Foundation. There are events and
The success of both sister wineries of Lakeridge and San Sebastien Winery can be attributed to Vice President of Wine Making Operations, Jeanne Burgess, who has been aboard since the first day. She got her degree from Florida State University in Education, and continued her education in Enology and Viticulture at Mississippi State University. Her award-winning Blanc du Bois was born out of persuading researchers at the University of Florida to produce a bunch grape. “I feel like a parent whose kid graduated from college with honors. The Blanc du Bois has won a lot of awards, but none as prestigious as [the international wine award],” Burgess said. “Its showing just reinforces that good wines can be made in places other than California or Central Europe”.
Not only is there good wine to be had, but there are health benefits to wine. Specifically, muscadine grapes contain phytonutrients that act as antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents, as well as, Quercetin, which is an antioxidant that maintains mental performance for individuals undergoing severe physical stress. It is only the muscadine grape that exhibits these certain phytonutrients due to an extra set of chromosomes, giving a much higher occurrence of the antioxidants than others. Low in fat, and sodium, the muscadine grape exceeds in potassium content and is more fiber rich than a bowl of oats! If that was not a convincing argument for enjoying a glass of wine, the muscadine also fights cancer with ellagic acid and resveratol, which also protects from disease and infection, is an anti-coagulant, and an anti-inflammatory agent. While wine made from the muscadine grape could easily be found in the pharmaceutical aisle, the Lakeridge selections grace retail shelves across the state, and “the family continues to have a strong commitment to quality, good health, and global responsibility.”

health » Focus bodies burn the calories we consume. Let’s begin with body composition and gender. Those who have a larger body frame are more likely to have a higher RMR because the body has to generate more energy to keep the body in operation mode. Men have more body composition than women so naturally, they have a higher RMR. Muscle tissue requires more calories than fat tissue, so those who have more muscle have a higher RMR. As we age, there is a natural decrease in your RMR number, 2-3% every decade. This could be due to factors in the aging process, such as being sedentary, changes in hormones and body composition. Do you have difficulty getting in a good night’s sleep? Sleep deprivation can disturb the hormones that regulate your appetite. Imbalances in the hormones ghrelin (which stimulates appetite) and leptin (the hormone that tells your brain that you are full) can decrease energy expenditure. After doing the RMR test and receiving a counseling session, the idea that needs to be engraved in your mind is this – you’ve got

aving difficulty losing weight? It could be your metabolism and whether or not you are consuming the right amount of calories. In the fitness industry, one of the biggest complaints people have about why weight loss is so difficult for them is this phrase: “My metabolism could be slow. How can I speed it up in order to lose weight?” The easiest way to find out your RMR and your calorie budget is to do a Body Gem Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) test. Here’s how the Body Gem works: You are seated in a relaxing atmosphere (hence the word “resting”) in order to achieve a steady-state breathing pattern. With your nose pinched off, you breathe into device for 8 to 10 minutes. Once the breathing test is complete, a number will appear in the window of the device. This number is the
24
june 2011 myfocustv.com
amount of calories your body burns in 24 hours if you were to do nothing all day long. Brain function, heart rate, blinking—you’re burning calories even when you aren’t working hard! The number is then plugged into the Body Gem software system where a fitness professional can customize a calorie budget and create personalized nutrition and exercise goals. After a Body Gem RMR test has been administered, the first question that is always asked is, “Is my number high?” The truth is everyone has their own unique Resting Metabolic Rate number. We all burn calories at different rates and that’s because we all have different body types as well as several factors that influence the number. Body composition, gender, age, hormones, stress, sleep habits, activity – all these characteristics determine how fast our
to eat to lose weight! Say what? Sounds backwards from everything we’ve been taught, right? It used to be that in order to lose weight you would decrease your caloric intake—well throw that out the window! The definition of metabolism states that it is the way in which the body converts food into fuel. Remember that food is your fuel and without it, your engine could run out of steam-fast. This stored fat comes from the macronutrients you consume in your diet— carbohydrates, fats and proteins. If you have a deficit of these nutrients, your body thinks it’s starving and it will begin to store fat! While on a weight management program, your RMR should be monitored regularly. The goal is to make a change in your RMR number. If the number goes down, great – that means you’ve lost weight and fewer calories are needed to support your body weight. If the number goes up, that’s great too. That means you’ve worked hard in your workouts and you’ve gained leaned muscle mass. More muscle tissue equals less fat tissue and less fat tissue means a smaller, healthier you! Knowing your RMR rate may just be the key to the weight loss puzzle you’ve been searching for.
health » ASK THE CHIROPRACTOR
The New Cure High Blood Pressure Within You and Chiropractic D id you know that studies today are showing the link between chiropractic care and high blood pressure? The University of Leeds in England published a study August, 1 2007 in the Journal of Neuroscience that proved a distinct linkage between the structure of the neck to the brain, and that this linkage is crucial to controlling blood pressure. It has been known for decades that Chiropractic has a positive effect on organ systems of the body and does dramatically help improve and also maintain total health. WebMD a very well-known medical information website did a report back in 2007 called Chiropractic Cuts Blood Pressure: The Study Finds Special ‘Atlas Adjustment’ Lowers Blood Pressure. WebMD reports that an average drop of 14mm/Hg drop in systolic pressure (the top number) and an 8mm/Hg drop in the diastolic pressure (bottom number). Adjusting and correcting the subluxation of the atlas can substantially decrease overall blood pressure in as little as a few minutes. For some people only a few adjustments are needed to keep blood pressure from rising but for others it can take a series of adjustments and a wellness program to maintain the atlas in its proper position. Jim Deuchars a professor at University of Leeds states in a research article “By identifying the pathways we can see why these treatments might work and it could also explain why some people suffering whiplash injuries may experience a change in their blood pressure”. If you think of the epidemic of high blood
pressure among us today Chiropractic Care is a very small price to pay to maintain your health completely naturally and drug free. Just like all chiropractic adjustments this is completely non-invasive, there are no drugs or medications prescribed, because it is simply just correcting your body to function properly. As Franklin Roosevelt said “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” “The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.”Thomas A. Edison US inventor (1847 - 1931)

FLORIDA’S RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD TENTANT LAW – Part I of III The Lease – It’s Not a ‘Real’ Contract, Right?
Wrong Article submitted by: Attorney Beth Ann Gause, GAUSE & HARGROVE, PLLC
I
n today’s economic atmosphere leasing, or renting, a home can be an attractive alternative to home ownership. A lease agreement can be oral or written. If the lease is oral, then the length of the lease will depend on the frequency that rental payments are paid to the Landlord. This could be week to week, month to month, etc. It is recommended that the lease be in writing to lessen confusion as to Landlord and Tenant responsibilities. Some of the terms that should be included in the lease are: • Location of the home • Amount of rent • Length of rental period

• Termination terms • Security deposit location More terms may be included in the lease for clarification. The most important requirement is that both the Landlord and the Tenant understand what is being agreed to. Regardless of whether a lease is oral or written, a residential lease is a legally binding “contract.” The Tenant should carefully read the lease, as it sets forth the duties and responsibilities of both parties. Although it is common for a Landlord to have a written lease ready for the Tenant to sign, the Tenant plays an equal role in the making of the lease. Both the Landlord and the Tenant must
agree to all of the terms.
property, foreclosure, or disputes.
A common misconception is that a Tenant has three days to cancel the lease after signing it. There is no waiting or grace period. The Tenant must ensure that he or she understands the entire lease before signing it. Whether the lease is oral or written, Florida law imposes an obligation of good faith in the performance and enforcement of the lease. However, the law will also allow a party to “make a bad deal.” So, it is important that the Tenant participate in the lease process and understand the lease.
Unless the Landlord is providing utilities the Tenant will have to make arrangements to have the utilities turned on. It is common practice of the utility companies to require a copy of the signed lease before an account will be opened. If the Landlord is providing the utilities the Landlord and Tenant should make sure that the utilities provided are specifically stated in the lease. There may be disagreements during the rental period. Tenants and Landlords alike should keep a copy of the signed lease agreement. The lease agreement should be kept in a safe place with easy access. Since the lease is a legally binding contract the courts will interpret the terms. Whether you are a Landlord or Tenant, be sure you understand all of the terms and agreement.
Most often the Landlord will require a security deposit before moving into the newly leased home. There could also be a requirement for first and last months rent. The lease should detail exactly what money is due before moving in. The lease should also state where the Landlord intends on depositing the security deposit. Florida law requires that the security deposit be placed in an escrow account. This means that the Landlord cannot place the security deposit in his or her own personal account. This protects both the Landlord and the Tenant in case there are later issues with sale of the
