here is no denying that

Irish eyes are smiling
come the month of
March. With the widely cele-
brated and festive Saint Patrick's
Day arriving mid-month, the
parades and shamrocks might
overshadow the fact that there's
more to Irish heritage than Saint
Patrick's Day. In fact, the entire
month of March is dedicated to
Irish-American heritage.
In 1840, many Irish people
immigrated to North America to
escape the great potato famine
happening in Ireland. Today
almost 40 million people claim
Irish ancestry, and there are mil-
lions of Irish-Americans making
contributions to the United States
each and every day, with notable
Irish-Americans in all walks of
life. Here are just a handful of peo-
ple of Irish heritage who have
made strides in their respective
disciplines through the years.
Charles Carroll III: Carroll was
born in Maryland where there
were once laws to prohibit
Catholics from voting, holding
office or worshiping publicly.
Carroll became a Catholic-rights
activist and also served as a U.S.
Senator in the first Congress. He
holds the title as the only
Catholic to have signed the
Declaration of Independence.
Harry "Bing" Crosby: Crosby
was an acclaimed entertainer
whose contributions are still val-
ued today, more than three
decades after his death. A singer
and actor, his trademark smooth,
baritone voice helped catapult
Crosby to the list of top record
sellers for the twentieth century.
One of the first people to receive
three stars on the Hollywood
Walk of Fame, Crosby also
earned an Academy Award for
Best Actor for his role as Father
Chuck O'Malley in the 1944
motion picture "Going My Way."
Henry Ford: The American
auto industry can give thanks to
the eviction of John Ford from
Cork in 1847, which enabled the
Ford family to move to the States
shortly after. John's son Henry
became an automobile pioneer
and helped pave the way for the
dominance and popularity of the
American car.
John Hughes: Many people say
that Hughes' popular teen movies
documented their own teenage
years. Hughes is best known for a
string of quirky, yet spot-on depic-
tions of the average American
teenager that helped start the
careers of actors who would go on
to be known as the "Brat Pack". In
the 1990s, hits like "Home Alone"
and "Curly Sue" also resonated
with audiences and helped solidify
Hughes as a leader in family enter-
tainment. He passed away in 2009
from a heart attack.
Ron Howard: One of Holly-
wood's most successful directors,
Howard can also lay claim to
being one of its most successful
child actors. Appearing in his first
film in 1956 at just 18 months old,
Howard went on to memorable

D
o you remember your
first real career job?
Were you bright-eyed
and ready to take on the world,
claim your stake, make your
stand, carve-out your place in
the working world and create
your path to financial inde-
pendence? Were you charged-
up, enthused, motivated, stim-
ulated and in great anticipa-
tion of your first real serious
paycheck? How did it feel
when the payroll cycle came to
pass and you looked at the
paystub for the first time to
realize the terms: FICA, FED
WITH, SUI, STATE TAX,
ESOP or UNION DUES or
PENSION CONT or 401k
withdrawal and how that
reduced your gross pay result-
ing in that minimal net pay fig-
ure? Were you let down? Did
you think they must have
made a mistake? How could it
be possible that there are so
many and such severe deduc-
tions? Will I get some of that
back at tax return time? Did
you try to play with your
exemption status to increase
the net pay? And from the net
pay there were the constant
and never ending utility bills,
car insurance payments, loan
payments, credit card bills,
rent or mortgage payments, car
repairs, food bills and enter-
tainment expenses like dating,
travel and vacations.
Did you tell yourself that
retirement is decades away and
that eventually you would get
serious about it when you
could afford to seriously
address it or when you got a
raise or bonus? Were you cor-
rect and did you keep your
promise? Were you relieved
when you found your spouse
and soul mate to share your
lives together and to pool your
resources for the greater good,
including bill paying relief and
the ability to make a serious
consideration to retirement
allocations? Did you allocate
serious funds to your retire-
ment planning and portfolio at
that time? Did your spouse and
working partner eventually get
pregnant and leave the work
force to be a more involved
parent saying that when the
child was old enough for
school she would re-enter the
work force to allocate serious
funding for retirement plan-
ning at that time? Did it come
to pass or were those great
intentions derailed by the birth
of your second child. By now
you had found a better job or
received bonuses and raises;
did you carve-out a major per-
centage of the raises and
bonuses explicitly for retire-
ment funding yet?
Were there extracurricu-
lar activities like dance classes,
music instruction, and karate
lessons, summer camp, winter
skiing or educational tutoring?

Time for your Tune UP,
GIVE PRY A TRY!
Is financial independence an illusion? By Mark Charnet
continued on next page
These expenses no doubt cut
into funds that otherwise
would have been directed to
IRAs or other retirement accu-
mulations. The kids got older
and now college tuition plan-
ning entered the foray also
deriding the retirement accu-
mulation desires. Along the
way, cost of living expenses
rose, property taxes increased,
pay raises and bonuses were
less plentiful or eliminated
altogether. Before you know it
25 years have passed since that
first paycheck! You sit back
and critique your ambitions,
decisions, successes and fail-
ures and more importantly the
account balances and portfolio
values. What do I do now you
may ask? Youre about 50 and
retirement is looking more like
an illusion rather than a right!
You rationalize this with the
fact that youll work to age 70,
giving you 20 more years to
accumulate your fortune.
Perhaps there will be a small
inheritance from either your
parents or hers to give you a
retirement boost, and if I delay
Social Security that ultimate
check will be bigger anyway!
The stock market hasnt been
too friendly to your 401k any-
way, or to your non-qualified
portfolio either. Now will be a
great time to get started you
say. College tuition is firmly
upon you now and the
prospects for future employ-
ment with your current
employer or other companies
in your industry are shaky at
best. Your property taxes are
now 5 times more than your
first home and the price of a
car has quintupled since your
first car purchase. Lo and
behold, you are paying to
insure 4 cars now, yours, hers
and the two kids. Perhaps
youve thought to start a veg-
etable garden to save some
money at the grocery store
which has escalated your food
budget by 300% over the last
25 years. At this point in your
life you fully understand the
erosion factures of inflation.
You begin to calculate the
required nest egg to be able to
generate enough monthly
income for you and your part-
ner to live modestly for the rest
of your natural lives. The con-
clusion is you need help; you
need a competent financial
advisor! In fact, you need an
expert to put the pieces of your
financial puzzle in order before
its too late, a retirement and
estate planning specialist that
has the knowledge and ability
to craft a guaranteed* lifetime
retirement income plan from
the assets youve been able to
accumulate throughout your
life. You might be saying: Ive
tried this on my own for the
last 25 years and now the fore-
gone conclusion is by not using
a financial professional I am
exactly where I planned to be.
I need help, now, I understand
now, I am ready to acquiesce
now, and I will make that call,
make the appointment and
keep it. I cannot afford not to.
Financial Independence need
not be an illusion; it can be

S
cientists have identi-
fied two substances in
licorice used exten-
sively in Chinese traditional
medicine that kills major
bacteria responsible for tooth
decay and gum disease. In a
study, in the Journal of
Natural products, they say
these substances could have a
role in treating and prevent-
ing these afflictions.
The study found that
the compounds Licoricidin
and Licorisoflavan A were
the most effective antibacter-
ial substance. These are
capable of killing two of the
major bacteria responsible for
cavities and three of the bac-
teria that promote gum dis-
ease.
The dried root of the
licorice plant is a common
treatment in Chinese tradi-
tional medicine. Licorice
candy in the U.S. has
replaced licorice root with
anise oil that tastes similar.
Some day licorice root could
be used to treat or even pre-
vent oral infections.

D
id you ever notice
the little boy on the
soccer field who just
could not quite kick the ball,
tripped over people and had
poor coordination when try-
ing to dribble? Or the little
girl in ballet class who had a
difficult time imitating the
teachers body movements
and sequencing the dance
steps? What about the first
grader on the playground
who constantly barged into
other children and just didnt
seem to see obstacles in front
of him causing him to trip
and fall constantly? Most
people refer to these children
as clumsy, but there may be a
better explanation.
For the last 100 years
poor motor coordination or
clumsiness has been recog-
nized as a problem. Recently,
the term Developmental
Coordination Disorder
(DCD) has been used when
referring to children with
motor coordination difficul-
ties. This is a fairly common
childhood disorder and is
usually identified in school
age children between the
ages of 6-12. Studies indicate
that the prevalence of DCD
is estimated at 8-12% of all
school- aged children with
more boys diagnosed than
girls (2:1). As a result of the
wide diversity in the DCD
diagnosis, finding its true
cause has been difficult and is
unknown at this time. Some
speculate that DCD can be
caused by an injury that
occurs before or during the
birthing process. Others say
that DCD is a result of dam-
age on the cellular level.
In order for a child to be
diagnosed with DCD it must
impact on some aspect of his
or her life. These children
often exhibit poor balance,
tripping on uneven surfaces,
an awkward running pattern,
dropping items, frequent trip-
ping and falling, difficulty
imitating body positions and
following 2-3 step motor
directions. These motor
problems will affect the
childs ability to complete
motor oriented tasks. Be-
cause of these problems, chil-
dren often perform poorly in
sports demonstrating slow
reaction and movement
times. Since these children
do not feel successful when
participating in sports, they
may feel insecure. This inse-
curity can lead to a more
sedentary lifestyle for the
child thus causing poor mus-
cular strength, decreased
muscle force and ultimately
weight gain. Unfortunately,
children with DCD may
experience other difficulties,
besides the physical limita-
tions. These children may
exhibit psychosocial prob-
lems. Because these children

Why does my child seem so uncoordinated/awkward? By Gena Livingston
H
ow common is a
headache? Accor-
ding to recent scien-
tific studies, it is becoming
alarmingly common!
Research from Finland
shows the incidence of both
general and migraine head-
ache in children increased
markedly between 1974 and
1992. Using the same
methodology and school envi-
ronments in both studies,
researchers found in 1974
about 14% of a large sample of
7-year old children suffered
from headache and less than
2% from migraine. In 1992
these figures leaped almost
four-fold to 52% for headache
and 6% for migraine.
American researchers,
using national statistics,
reported the prevalence for
migraine in the adult popula-
tion increased about 60%
from 1980 to 1989. The high-
est increase was found in
women younger than 45 years.
A third study, also from the
United States, revealed a
sharp increase of migraine
between 1979 and 1991 in
persons under 45 years, a jump
of 34% in women and nearly
100% in men.
Several theories have
been suggested to help explain
these startling statistics.
Increased stress in our lives,
both for adults and children, is
one of the more common.
This theory lacks credibility,
however, as many authorities
agree the factors that con-
tribute to stress have not
changed significantly over the
past decades. More likely the
dramatic increase in headache
is multifactoral: diet, fitness
level, rest, pollution and aller-
gy, time spent sitting at desks,
computer screens and watch-
ing television and, yes, stress.
Perhaps the single most
important factor may be pos-
ture. Simply put, we slouch
more. Research is now show-
ing posture affects not only
muscle and joint function, but

Adolescents with DCD have
been found to have fewer
friends, lower self esteem and
more anxiety than their peers
without DCD.
Historically parents
have been told not to worry
about their childs clumsi-

the problem. However, cur-
rent research states that chil-
dren do not outgrow clumsi-
ness and without interven-
tion, will not improve.
Motor control processes
are complex and depend on
integrating the sensory, per-
ceptual, cognitive and motor
systems. A skilled Pediatric
Physical Therapist can work
on integrating all of these
systems to assist the child in
working toward age appropri-
ate functional goals. By
breaking down components
of a task, practicing each
component repetitively and
translating the new skill into
the childs natural environ-
ment, motor skills can
be greatly improved, confi-
dence and self assuredness
enhanced and enthusiasm
and participation in sports
and age appropriate games
greatly increased. I have
worked with hundreds of
children with symptoms that
fall into this category with
excellent and permanent
results that both parents and
children are greatly pleased
with.

Why does my child seem so uncoordinated/awkward?
Increasing prevalence of headache
I
n the last article we learned
that dogs become senior cit-
izens just like people. The
same is true for our feline fami-
ly members. As veterinary
medicine advances, our cats are
living longer, and certain
changes are expected as our
cats age. These dont have to
be negative changes. We can
help them adapt with minimal
effort by diagnosing problems
early, modifying the cat's envi-
ronment, diet and interaction
with us.
Age itself is not a disease
but the following are issues that
are more common in our senior
cats. Addressing these changes
and diagnosing diseases early
are essential to the health of
your older cat. Preventative
veterinary care can add years
and quality to the life of your
cat, which can include early
detection blood work and com-
plete veterinary exams every 6
months for our senior pets.
Arthritis is one of the
most under diagnosed diseases
in older cats. The changes are
very subtle and older cats are
more sedentary which makes it
very difficult to observe if
theyre having joint pain.
What you may see is difficulty
jumping onto counters, win-
dow sills or going up and down
stairs. This may lead to other
problems like not using the lit-
ter box, especial-
ly if they have to
travel up or down
stairs to get to it
or if the litter box
has high sides.
Cats are sensitive
to many anti-
i nf l ammat or y
medications such
as aspirin and
acetaminophen.
Do NOT give
your cat an anti-inflammatory
or pain relief medication unless
prescribed by your veterinari-
an. A very safe and effective
supplement to start them on is
glucosamine and chondroitin
(as prescribed from your veteri-
narian). Also make sure their
litter box and bowls are on the
same level of the house where
they spend most of their time.
Obesity is one of the main
health problems of middle age
cats. This should be addressed
early because, as a senior, it can
predispose them to diseases like
diabetes and heart disease or
just make other issues worse
like arthritis. Its harder to get
the weight off a senior cat, so
do it now by measuring the
food given, not just keeping the
bowl full and by increasing
their exercise.A veterinarian
can help you monitor their
weight and body condition and
adjust the diet accordingly.
Dental disease is one of
the most common changes we
see in senior citizen cats. By the
age of four, more than 70 per-
cent of cats exhibit signs of
dental disease. Preventative
dental care including tooth
brushing, dental treats, regular
dental checkups, and profes-
sional cleaning as needed are
aimed at keeping dental disease
to a minimum.
Without proper
dental care, signif-
icant dental dis-
ease can develop
which could lead
to pain and life-
threatening com-
plications.
Older cats
may need to be
groomed more
often. Groom-ing
is a great way for you to spend
enjoyable time with your older
cat and is a means to check for
any lumps, bumps, sores,
etc. In an older cat, the fur may
become thinner or duller; how-
ever, this can also be a sign of
disease or nutritional deficien-
cy. If your cats coat changes
significantly, you should con-
sult with a veterinarian.
An o t h e r
change to closely
monitor for is
increased thirst
or urination. This
may be the earli-
est sign seen in
older cats for
many diseases,
most commonly,
kidney insufficiency, diabetes
mellitus and hyperthy-
roidism. These diseases can be
detected even earlier with early
detection/wellness blood work
which can be performed at your
cats 6 or 12 month exams.
Many diseases tested for with
this type of panel are simply
and effectively treatable with-
out putting the cat through a
lot. By finding disease process-
es early, oftentimes there is a
better prognosis for a longer
and happier life.
Our senior cats need to be
monitored more closely.
Knowing what changes to
expect and what to look for can
help you and your cat adjust
when and if they do come.
Dont disregard any changes as
'just being old age.' These could
be early signs of a more serious
disease. Always consult your
veterinarian if you are in doubt
or notice changes. We owe it
to our longtime companions to
take care of them in their sen-
ior years as much as we did
when they were kittens.

n a press release from
January 31, 2012, IRS com-
missioner Doug Shulman
announced the results of a
nationwide effort to cut down
on identity theft and refund
fraud. The IRS worked in con-
junction with the Justice
Department's Tax Division and
local U.S. Attorneys' offices to
target more than one hundred
people across twenty-three
states. The sweep resulted in
939 criminal charges against
would-be tax frauds.
In addition to the sweep,
IRS auditors and investigators
visited approximately 150
money-service businesses to
conduct extensive compliance
visits and insure these business-
es aren't engaged in practices
which may facilitate refund
fraud and identity theft.
Taxpayer identity theft
normally occurs when a thief
uses a legitimate taxpayer's
identity to falsely file a tax
return and claim a refund. A
victim of identity theft is rarely
aware their identity has been
stolen until he or she attempts
to file a legitimate return later
in the tax season and discovers
that another return has already
been filed using their Social
Security Number.
If you receive an IRS noti-
fication for any of the following
reasons, you should take imme-
diate action:
More than one return was filed
for you in a single tax year
You have a balance due,
refund offset or have had col-
lection actions taken against
you for a year you did not file a
tax return, or
IRS records indicate you
received wages from an
employer unknown to you.
Immediately respond to the
name and number printed on
the letter if you receive such
notification.
The IRS advises you to mini-
mize your risk of identity theft
by:
Rarely carrying your
Social Security card or docu-
ments with your SSN on them.
Disclosing your SSN only
when required. Many business-
es may ask for your SSN but do
not actually need it. Do not
give out your SSN unless
absolutely necessary.
Protecting your financial infor-
mation, both online and in
print.
Checking your credit
report periodically. You may
check your credit without
charge once a year at
www.equifax.com, www.exper-
ian.com, or
www.transunion.com . By using
each of these services only once
each year, you can actually
check your credit report every
four months.
Protecting your personal
computers using firewalls, anti-
spam and anti-virus software.
Keep your software current via
frequent updates. Use secure
passwords and change them
often.
By taking action against
tax fraud criminals, Comm-
issioner Shulman sends a clear
message to anyone considering
participation in a tax fraud
scheme. He said, "We are
aggressively pursuing cases
across the nation with the
Justice Department, and people
will be going to jail". The IRS
is taking additional steps to
prevent identity theft and
detect fraud by using new iden-
tity-theft screening filters and
placing identity-theft indica-
tors on taxpayer accounts to

"We go the extra mile
to give you a healthy smile"
IRS cracks down on identity theft nationwide By Robert Sokoloff, CPA
M
any parents can
attest to the chal-
lenges in encourag-
ing children to eat healthily,
including incorporating plenty
of fruits and vegetables into
their daily diets.
Children tend to become
picky eaters for a number of
reasons, according to the
UCSF Benioff Children's
Hospital. Some children are
just naturally more sensitive to
taste, texture and smell of some
foods. Others may learn their
picky eating from parents who
pick and choose among their
meals. Still other children
learn to be selective through
bribes and punishments around
mealtime.
However, there needn't
been fussing and feuding over
food choices -- particularly pro-
duce -- when parents employ a
few creative ideas to entice
children to dig into healthy
foods.
1.Ask for your child's help:
Have your child ride along to
the grocery store and take an
active role into picking out
healthy foods that he or she
may be willing to try. Most
nutrition experts find that if
children take an interest in
what they will be eating, and
are instrumental in making
some choices, they will have a
higher rate of eating those
meals and foods.
2.Understand your child's eat-
ing habits: Some children will
eat the crown of broccoli but
leave aside the stems. There are
kids that will eat anything as
long as it's dunked in ketchup.
They may enjoy pears as long as
they are cut up into pieces with
the skin removed. Pay atten-
tion to how your child likes to
eat the food and present it that
way. It could mean fewer argu-
ments at the dinner table.
3.Explore new flavor combina-
tions: Oftentimes mixing cer-
tain flavor combinations can
entice children to eat foods
they may have never consid-
ered trying. Just think about
the popularity of fruit juices
mixed with vegetable purees.
Some children have an inclina-
tion toward favorite flavors or
just can benefit from a little
variety, which can sometimes
prove challenging when pro-
duce is out of season. Try
Grapple(R) brand apples,
which combine the fresh,
familiar flavor of Washing-ton
apples with the aroma and taste
of concord grapes. Through a
patented process, premium
Washing-ton State apples are
infused with grape flavor to cre-
ate a product that "Crunches
like an Apple, Tastes like a
Grape(TM)." The health ben-
efits of Grapples are just the
same as other variety of apples,
and there is no artificial ingre-
dients added or genetic alter-
ing. The process of making
them does not add any extra
sugar, calories, carbohydrates or
anything else; in fact the apple
maintains its natural supply of

Make fruits fun for kids
Add a fun twist to a favorite fruit.
N
eil Simon's 1965
classic is considered
to be his best come-
dy. Set in New York during a
hot 1960s summer, the story
follows the adventures of
two mismatched roommates;
Felix Ungar, a neurotic fuss-
pot news writer, and Oscar
Madison, a slovenly sports
journalist. The men attempt
to adapt to each others idio-
syncrasies, all the while try-
ing to rekindle their social
lives with side-splitting
results! Dont miss this per-
formance at the Rhino
vitamins, minerals, nutrients,
and fiber. Parents can rest
assured that all ingredients
have been approved by the
USDA and the FDA.
4.Try creative presentations:
Simply presenting the foods in
a unique way can make them
fun to eat. Try making fruit cre-
ations, such as "snowmen" out
of stacked grapes, or orange and
peach skewers. Children may
be more inclined to drinking
fruit smoothies mixed with
yogurt, or giving foods fun
names, such as banana bombs,
which are just chunks of
banana rolled in honey and
granola. All it may take is cre-
ating a fruit face on a plate with
different fruits resembling fea-
tures. Try kiwi eyes, Grapple
slices for a mouth, a blueberry
nose, or whatever you come up
with.
5.Be patient with new foods: It
can take a few attempts and
repeated exposure to get chil-
dren to try new foods, says the
Mayo Clinic. Serve new foods
along with children's favorite
foods, like Grapple slices added
to a peanut butter sandwich.
More information is avail-
able by calling 1-800-232-2636
or visiting www.grapplefruits
.com and Facebook at
http://www.facebook.com/Grap
plebrandapples. Grapple brand
apples are available in many
grocery stores nationwide from
October through May.
Here are more ideas about
incorporating these apples in
tasty snacks.
Crunch Grapple Slices
Core, cut and slice 2
Grapples, crush 1/2 c of your
favorite cereal like Chex or
Rice Krispies, mix 1 tea-
spoons packed brown sugar
and 2 tablespoons peanut
butter together. Spread the
brown sugar and peanut but-
ter onto Grapple slices and
roll in cereal.
Grapple Kabobs
Core, quarter and cube a
Grapple. Slice some cheese
into similarly sized cubes.
Skewer the apples and cheese
alternately on toothpicks,
adding a raisin or other dried
fruit. If packing for school
lunch, dip the apples into a lit-
tle lemonade first to keep them
from turning brown.
Dried Grapples
You can easily dry your own
apples without any preserva-
tives. Cut a Grapple into 1/4
inch thick slices. Dip them into
a bowl of lemon water or
lemonade. Spread out on a
metal rack and set into a warm
oven (180 F) for two or three
hours. Turn off the oven and let
them cool.
Baked Grapples
Place a cored apple in a but-
tered ramekin. Add 1 tea-
spoon of butter, 1 teaspoon of
brown sugar and a 1/4 tea-
spoon of cinnamon into the
center hole. Bake at 350
degrees for about 45 minutes.
Cool for 10 minutes.

whom seldom get out. Drivers
are needed to deliver meals
two times a month. Presently,
we are accepting referrals for
people who would like to
receive meals. Please call Paul

H
omeowners often
look to make
improvements on
their homes to advance aes-
thetics, save money or make
their homes more energy effi-
cient. What they may not
know is that certain home
improvements may qualify
them for manufacturer or
energy supplier rebates and
even federal tax credits that
can help a person save even
more.
Not all products are eli-
gible each year, so it's benefi-
cial to know what tax incen-
tives are out there regarding
home retrofits. Here are
some programs to keep in
mind.
U.S. residents who
made home improvements in
2011 may be eligible for tax
credits when filing a 2011 tax
return. Installation and
replacement of biomass
stoves, HVAC systems, insu-
lation, metal and asphalt
roofs, nonsolar water heaters
and windows/doors can earn
a person up to 10 percent of
the cost, up to $500, or a spe-
cific amount from $50 to
$300. Improvements must
have been done to an exist-
ing home and principal resi-
dence by December 31, 2011.
Federal tax credits for
2012 include geothermal
heat pumps. These are simi-
lar to ordinary heat pumps,
but use the ground instead of
outside air to provide heat-
ing, air conditioning and, in
most cases, hot water. Use of
small residential wind tur-
bines and solar energy sys-
tems, including solar water
heaters and photovoltaic
panels, are also eligible.
These tax credits offer 30
percent of the cost of the
renovation with no upper
limit.
Visit http://Energy.gov
/savings to determine any
additional rebate and savings
programs that may be offered
in your state. Homeowners
looking to do improvements
can go online or consult with
a tax professional to deter-
mine which improvements
may be eligible for tax credits
or incentives. With the ener-
gy saved and the credit, it
could add up to considerable
savings on the new product.
Home improvements
eligible for tax breaks or rebates
Installation of insulation and other energy-saving products could
make you eligible for a tax rebate.

hether the kids
have all grown up
and moved out or
if the kids are on the way and
it's time to expand a living
area, building a new home is
an exciting, yet often agoniz-
ing, experience. The reasons
for building a new home are
many, but regardless of the
reason, the process of choos-
ing a builder should remain
the same.
Andrew Nadalin, presi-
dent of Pace 2000 Inc. and a
fourth generation builder
and craftsmen, offers the fol-
lowing advice to prospective
homeowners with their eyes
set on building a dream home
to call their own.
Look for a builder with a
solid reputation. A builder's
reputation speaks volumes,
but it doesn't have to speak
for itself. That's because a
builder who has spent years
providing personal service,
innovative design and quali-
ty workmanship will no
doubt have a host of happy
former customers ready and
willing to offer their input. If
during the interview process
a builder appears reticent to
share his work or experiences
with previous customers, this
should be a red flag.
Reputable builders will be
proud of their work and more
than willing to show it off.
Find a builder who is flexi-
ble. You will be paying to
build your home, not the
builder's home. A builder
should be flexible and ready
and willing to meet your
needs, no matter how unique
they might be.
Look for a builder who does
more than build. A good
builder should do more than
just build. A builder should
provide a network of quali-
fied professionals to make
the process go more smooth-
ly. This network should
include real estate and build-
ing consultants, interior
designers, architects and
engineers. Such connections
can provide peace of mind
and will also illustrate that a
builder is both respected in
the community and is intent
on ensuring your home
becomes the dream home
you envision it to be.
Don't build on the cheap.
Buyers who plan to build
their own home are in the
unique position to ensure
their home is as safe and
high-quality as possible. This
isn't always the case when
buying a resale, so make the
most of your opportunity and
use only top-of-the-line con-
struction materials and fea-
tures and choose a builder
with experience in working
with such materials and fea-
tures. Building on the cheap
could prove disastrous in the
not too distant future, so
don't sacrifice on quality
when building a new home.
More information on
selecting the right builder is
available online at www.
pace2000homes.com.

O
n St. Patrick's Day,
have a little fun in
with a traditional
Irish twist. Whether you're
Irish or not, enjoy the festiv-
ities with some entertain-
ment and food.
Because green is the
color of choice on this festive
day, one of the easiest ways
to celebrate in the Irish style
is to incorporate the color in
as many ways as possible --
even in food. Course after
course and meal after meal
you can add a hint of green
to the foods your family
enjoys. With a little bottle of
green food coloring, it's
amazing what you can
achieve.
Breakfast Ideas:
Tint milk green, whether in
a glass or in a bowl of cereal.
(Serve with "Lucky Charms"
perhaps?)
Channel your inner Dr.
Seuss by turning scrambled
eggs into "green eggs and
ham."
Make a green smoothie
with yogurt, juice and a
banana, with a few drops of
coloring added.
Butter toast with green-
tinted butter.
Lunch Ideas:
Make pizza or pasta with a
green pesto sauce.
Serve olive loaf instead of
bologna in a sandwich. It has
circles of green olives
throughout.
Make sure kids' juice boxes
are a green-colored variety.
Create a fruit salad with
mostly green fruits, such as
green grapes, kiwis, honey-
dew melon, and green apples.
Baked potatoes topped with
green-tinted sour cream and
chives will be a winner.
Dinner Ideas:
A vegetable medley of
green veggies, like spinach,
broccoli, asparagus, and more
can be served as a side dish or
mixed as a casserole.
While corned beef and cab-
bage are traditional Irish
dishes, tint the cabbage
green for a little more flair.
Green food coloring added
to mashed potatoes can liven
mealtime up.
Make homemade Irish soda
bread or another bread to
serve at dinner and add green
food coloring to the dough.
Beverages:
What would St. Patrick's
Day be without a green glass
of beer? For the kids, tint gin-
ger ale or a lemon-lime soda
green.
Create a green cocktail
using Bailey's Irish Cream
liqueur.
Dessert Ideas:
Turn ice cream or milk-
shakes green using mint-fla-
vored ice cream
Add green sugar sprinkles
to cookies and cakes.
Bake chocolate chip cook-
ies using green M&M can-
dies, instead of chips.
Fill cream puffs with green-
colored cream.
When you think of all
the foods you can turn green
or are naturally that color,
your St. Patrick's Day can
truly be filled with emerald
magic.

pyramid, transforming it
into a different symbol alto-
gether -- a dinner plate.
The general basis of the
"MyPlate" model generated
by the USDA is to give indi-
viduals a better understand-
ing of the ratios of food that
should fill their plates. While
the average guidelines for the
total amount of each food
group that should be eaten
varies according to age and
sex, the overall messages of
how much to fill a plate serve
as a good indicator for health-
ier eating.
Taking a small dinner
plate, half of the plate should
be filled with fruits and veg-
etables, with a greater empha-
sis on vegetables. Slightly less
than one-fourth of the other
side of the plate should con-
sist of lean protein. The
remaining open portion of
the plate should be made up
of grains -- with at least half
of those grains whole grains.
A cup of low- or nonfat milk
should be an accompaniment
to the meal for dairy con-
sumption.
Most people get their
recommended amount of oils
through many of the foods
that they eat, including fish
and nuts. The USDA advises
anywhere from 3 to 7 tea-
spoons of total oil consump-
tion daily, depending on age
and sex. Otherwise, caloric
need is surpassed and weight
gain may occur.
In addition to the rec-
ommendations on food
groups and portion sizes, the
MyPlate program has a series
of customizable online infor-
mation on everything from
learning about calorie intake
to personalized eating plans
to physical activity trackers,
all free of charge at
ChooseMyPlate.gov.
Revamped healthy eating guide
roles such as Opie on "The
Andy Griffith Show" and
Richie Cunningham on
"Happy Days." While his role
on "Happy Days" made him a
household name, it was
behind the camera where
Howard's career would truly
take off. Howard's directorial
career has produced several
hits, including "Splash,"
"Willow," "Apollo 13," and
"A Beautiful Mind," which
earned him the Academy
Award for Best Director.
Bill O'Reilly: A political
commentator and New York-
based news reporter, O'Reilly
quickly made a name for him-
self in television news, rising
up the ranks from local news
stops in Scranton, PA and
eventually landing his own
national show, "The O'Reilly
Factor," which is consistently
among cable news' top-rated
shows. O'Reilly holds two
master's degrees, one for
broadcast journalism from
Boston University and anoth-
er in public policy from
Harvard University.
Danica Patrick: In the male-
dominated world of auto rac-
ing, Patrick has established
herself as a worthy contender
time and again. She dropped
out of high school to advance
her racing career, starting
with a stint in England, and
Patrick has accumulated
world renown. The fourth
woman ever to race in the
Indianapolis 500, Patrick fin-
ished third in 2009, the high-
est-ever finish for a female
driver in the famed race.
Patrick has also scored many
different product endorse-
ments, and she is often seen
on television in a variety of
commercials.
