I would like to add some additional insight to Russ Bennett's excellent article in the April 19, 2012, issue of The Valley Reporter. There is one dynamic that Russ did not discuss in his article that deserves some attention, and that is the issue of the "cost shifting" that takes place between health care payers. As government entities Medicaid and Medicare unilaterally decide how much they will reimburse health care providers. For a typical small hospital in Vermont that has translated into 25 percent of charges for Medicaid and 60 percent of charges for Medicare. These reimbursement levels would translate into approximately 31 percent of cost for Medicaid and 75 percent of cost for Medicare. In the end, the hospital needs to be paid for 100 percent of its costs, so it transfers those costs to the balance of its patients by increasing its rates. In general, hospital rates are increased by about 30 percent to 35 percent to "cover" this cost-shift. As the proportion of Medicaid and Medicare patients has increased dramatically over the past two decades, the hospital charges have increased at a significantly higher rate than hospital costs, which is directly related to the large increases in insurance premiums.
Insurance companies have become more and more aggressive about improving their market advantage over competitors by seeking discounts. This has only added to the amount of the cost-shift to those without competitive advantage.
In the final analysis the cost-shift represents a tax that we all pay directly through our insurance premiums or pay indirectly through the higher prices we pay to those businesses which provide insurance. The goods and services we buy from insurance-providing businesses reflect the cost of providing health insurance, and this can put these businesses at a competitive disadvantage when they are competing against businesses that do not provide insurance.
A single-payer system would need to establish equitable reimbursement rates to all providers in order to eliminate the cost-shift tax. There is an opportunity to reduce insurance premiums by 30 percent to 35 percent should all payers pay their fair share. Any program that perpetuates the cost-shifting by allowing for special reimbursement rates for Medicaid and Medicare would ignore the current reimbursement inequity that represents a "hidden" tax for most people.

Find a way.
The motto is written any and everywhere on anything and everything blue and gold.
It is the Berkeley Stags baseball motto.
Find a way to win.
On Thursday, April 10 against visiting James Island, Chase Ganeys high hopper fielders choice drove in Connor Teague with the winning run as Berkeley scored twice in their last at bat to put the Region 8-AAA title in a hammerlock with a 2-1 win over the visiting Trojans.
This is Berkeley baseball, coach Landy Cox said. Funny how the game changes when the pressure is on you. You rise up and make the plays or you start throwing the ball around.
The Trojans started throwing the ball around, and the Stags made the plays.
The Stags Joe Glauser and James Islands Daniel Wilcutt were locked in a classic pitchers duel until the Trojans plated a run off an infield single in the top of the seventh to take a 1-0 lead.
After Kyle Garrick led off the Stags final at-bat with an infield single, the chess match began.
Josh Simmons sacrificed Garrick to second.
With Kyle Morrison pinch running, Teague hit a bad-hop infield single that moved Morrison to third.
Dylan Baker followed with a safety squeeze that scored Morrison and tied the game.
A Wilcutt wild pitch moved Teague to third and Baker to second.
After Wilcutt intentionally walked Jeffrey Stone to set up a force at any base, Ganey delivered the high hoppper over the mound.
The throw was high to the plate as Teague scored standing up.
All we were trying to do was safety squeeze with Baker and they started throwing the ball around, Cox said. Its all about executing and this team finds a way to get the bunt down or put the ball in play.
With the win, Berkeley moves to 4-1 in Region 8-AAA with region games against Stall, Orangeburg-Wilkinson and Hilton Head remaining.
The big game is Hilton Head and we need to win against them to repeat as region champs, Cox said. Well see their lefthander. Its going to be a war just like tonights game.
Stone picked up the win in relief. Glauser threw six-plus innings, giving up one run on just four singles.
The Stags managed just three infield singles off Wilcutt, with Garricks two hits leading the offense.
We find a way, Cox said. Thats how you win ball games.

Red Misto Gourmet Olive Oil Sprayer 5 5
Easy to use I liked the looks of the sprayer, it works easy, and cleans easy March 21, 2013
Great product This saves me time and money. I use it constantly. January 24, 2013
This Sprayer really saves time and money I have only used this sprayer a few times so far, but I can tell it is really convenient. Please read the directions first, I had never used a sprayer before and filled it up. You need to leave room to be able to pump it so it will build pressure to spray the oil. Now I know! I bought 2 more to give to my adult kids to add to their kitchen tools as well. April 3, 2013
Used a Lot I use this Misto a Lot, Some olive oils are very expensive and I find that this product is just perfect for my cooking needs. April 25, 2012
finally found it again! Bought this years ago but when my son moved out he asked me for it and I gave it to him. Could not find it until recently. Iron Chef program shows it all the time. Can use it for other things besides oils. Saves a lot of money on expensive oils by misting on food or baking trays, grilling, etc. Salads, garlic toast, fish, anything where you need that little bit. So glad u are carrying this!

TRIED & TESTED | Prtty Peaushun
Updated on 04.17.2010 by Jessica Teas (née Gearhart)
ALL THE hubbub in the blogosphere and oh-so-serious beauty pages of the broadsheets right now is about getting out those glow-in-the-dark gams for spring. You know the ones. Yours. Mine. Pasty, ashy, almost beyond hope. They've been shut away from the sun for so long, you're certain they make Gollum look positively tan next to you. Mine are so white that my blonde leg hairs look black (maybe that was TMI)...
Still, tis the season to reveal legs to the world. Rather than just put them out there as is, garnering a collective gasp of horror, I'm taking matters into my own hands/onto my own legs and leaving the house with something presentable from mid-thigh and below this year. Fake tanning might still be a foreign concept to me and my (nearly) 30 years, but, dammit, my white legs will hold their own against the Tango-ed girls of this world if I have something to say about it! In fact, legs that aren't a subtle shade of Jersey Shore look quite nice and it would be a relief to see a few more ladies rocking a natural, rather than scientific, skin tone. However, that's a topic for another post. Back to my long-neglected legs.

Oklahoma City, OK - The condition of small grains and canola across Oklahoma continued to deteriorate under the protracted drought, according to the Oklahoma Crop Weather report issued today by USDA-NASS Oklahoma Field Office. Seventy percent of rye, 65 percent of canola and 61 percent of wheat were rated poor to very poor at the end of December.
The poor condition of small grains meant limited grazing opportunities for livestock producers already facing poor pastures and low hay supplies. A winter storm on Christmas Day brought snow, with the highest totals falling in southeastern Oklahoma.
A few other minor precipitation events followed the last week of December. The Southeast district has recorded 2.49 inches for the month so far, with most districts averaging less than half an inch. Precipitation totals on this report include rain and snow measured through December 30th, but frozen precipitation is recorded as it melts, so some snow and ice may be excluded. Overall the moisture received during December was still far below average for the month, leaving seasonal totals even further behind.
For the period since September 1st all districts have received less than sixty percent of their normal moisture. The North Central district has recorded only 34 percent of normal precipitation for this period. Topsoil moisture conditions were rated 92 percent short to very short. Subsoil moisture conditions declined from the last report and were rated 98 percent short to very short.
Small Grains: Conditions of wheat, rye and canola were rated mostly poor to very poor and oats were rated mostly fair to poor. Only 22 percent of the wheat crop was being grazed, 15 points below 2011. Thirty percent of rye was reported as grazed, 34 points less than normal. A very small portion of oats were being grazed, compared to 43 percent of oats grazed last year, and a five-year average of 21 percent.
Pasture and Range: Pasture and range conditions continued to be rated poor to very poor throughout December. Several precipitation events the last week of the month may benefit conditions, but much more moisture is needed for grass to recover from the extended drought.
Livestock: The limited availability of small grain grazing along with the poor condition of pasture and grass meant hay and supplementary feed were crucial for livestock producers during December. Low pond levels from the extended drought continued to be problematic as well. Despite these difficulties, livestock conditions continued to be rated mostly in the good to fair range.
The entire Oklahoma report can be view online at: www.nass.usda.gov/ok under "Recent Reports." The national database, Quick Stats, and all USDA-NASS reports are available on the agency's web site at www.nass.usda.gov. For more information on NASS surveys and reports, call the USDA-NASS Oklahoma Field Office at 800-525-9226.

The Acorn Project, from Bellingham, Wash., is coming down to play three consecutive nights at Bend's McMenamins Old St. Francis School. That seemed like a good-enough reason to chat with saxophonist Sam Lax about the band.
If Acorn Project is a jam band, they're one with a sense of momentum. Where most jam bands might engage in endless, aimless guitar noodling, this one keeps moving forward, rocking out, ever mindful of keeping a beat.
In other words, Acorn Project's music is jammy, sure, but also muscular and punchy, a result of its members' varied interests.
"Everybody has a pretty different taste in what they like, and I think that … kind of led to our eclectic mix," Lax said. "Our bass player and lead singer/guitarist are both big fans of blues-rock and more of an indie sound. Myself and the keyboard player are really into the jam scene and the live electronica scene. And then we have our drummer who's big into hip-hop."
And while the individual Acorns will improvise and take solos, the band tries to focus on strong songwriting rather than just setting sail and seeing where the wind blows.
"If we're going to write a funk song, we want it to sound like funk," Lax said. "We'll open it up and let things flow, but we try to have, like, an end in sight, you know?"
You can check out the whole thing here.
Elsewhere in this week's music section:
Bend-based booking agency In The Pocket Artists is having a family gathering of sorts this weekend, as four bands from its roster play in town over three days. Click here to read up on the company, as well as Rubblebucket, The Staxx Brothers, Jukebot! and Empty Space Orchestra.
It seems like every week, another local artist is releasing a new album. This week, we have two: Sisters singer-songwriter Dennis McGregor will celebrate "Behind The Beat, Below The Note" Saturday at the Harmony House, and Bend Americana combo Moon Mountain Ramblers will show off their new double-disc "Live at the Tower" album with a show tonight at Angeline's Bakery in Sisters, and Saturday night at Silver Moon Brewing in Bend.
Still not satisfied? How about punk vets GBH at the Domino Room, jazzman Dan Balmer kicking off Black Butte Ranch's summer concert series, and David Miller, Erin Cole-Baker and the Rough String Band, plus an update on Last Band Standing. As always, there's much, much more in The Bulletin's complete music listings.
And don't forget: some of the best tunes in town this weekend will be at the Bite of Bend. We're talking March Fourth Marching Band, Rubblebucket, Ascetic Junkies, The Staxx Brothers and more. Here's our story on that!

The state's highest ranking public education official acknowledges that the Legislature is likely to slash the number of standardized tests high school students have to pass for graduation.
The current testing regime known as STAAR features 15 core-subject exams. But that has caused an "over-testing" backlash.
Education Commissioner Michael Williams said Tuesday he expects lawmakers to have a "robust conversation" on reducing the number.
Indeed, many bills seek to do just that, or declare a moratorium on all testing.
Williams told the House Public Education Committee that by the time the legislative session ends in May "it won't be 15 tests." But he also said, "I would hope it's not two or three."
Williams added that "high-consequences tests" ensure focused classroom teaching, saying "what gets tested does indeed get taught."

Q:How long is this cream good for or when does it expire?Asked on 3/26/2015 by Oki from Texas
2 answers
A:It will expire 14 months from the point that it was made, but this product will always have an expiration sticker on it with the exact date!Answered on 3/27/2015 by Kels from LUSH Direct
A:Expiration date is one year from manufacture. In my hands, it stays
homogenous and 'good' for as long as it takes to use the pot when stored at
room temp::: Not separation, foul smells or other weirdness. I use on both
my face and chest but buy the big pot so it takes me 6-8 months to use.

2 answers
A:If you find that your skin is continuing to breaking out from using this cream, it is advisable to stop using it, sadly. While we do our best to use ingredients that are safe for anyone, sensitivities to ingredients are very individual and can vary quite a bit! You may want to check the ingredient list with a doctor/dermatologist to help pinpoint the ingredient that's causing trouble for you!Answered on 10/3/2013 by Brandy from LUSH

It is the Jasmine that really comes out strongly in this lotion, and none of our other lotions contain Jasmine besides our retro Ginger Lotion, where it is much more subtle.Answered on 9/24/2013 by Kendra M from LUSH Direct
Q:Is this safe for pregnant women?Asked on 3/24/2013 by Patty
1 answer
A:Generally, any of our products would be fine for use during pregnancy provided there aren't any unique circumstances or particular ingredients in them that your doctor has told you to avoid during this time. Because everyone has individual health needs and differences, if you are at all concerned about using any products during pregnancy, I would really recommend consulting with your doctor with the ingredients list first. Some doctors do not like essential oils to be used during pregnancy, and we do use small amounts of them in most of our products, so please do check with a doctor you trust beforehand if you are uncertain.
You can find the ingredients list for each product on their product page on the website under the "QI" tab which stands for "Quantitative Ingredients". We also list the ingredients in our LUSH Times catalog, so it may be handy to bring a copy with you to the doctor to discuss if needed.Answered on 4/5/2013 by Anonymous

Q:Is there any reason I shouldn't use this on my face? LOVE the fragrance (to my surprise)...Asked on 2/4/2012 by Anonymous
3 answers
A:The body creams tend to be much thicker than facial moisturizers, and the skin and pores on our faces is very different from that on our hands and body (for instance, when's the last time you had a pimple on your elbow, right? ;) so we recommend sticking with facial moisturizers for face, and body moisturizers for body.Answered on 2/16/2012 by Megan from LUSH
A:I personally would not. However since you are looking for a tightening effect I WOULD recommend the fresh face mask scared truth and the serum Full of Grace.Answered on 4/22/2012 by Susie from Ohio

Q:If you stop using it will the effects wear off? And how many times a day ? Also How long does the bottle last?Asked on 2/1/2012 by Anonymous
2 answers
A:Lovely Jubblies is meant to give temporary lift or "oomph" to the skin, making it feel slightly plumper, and the emollient ingredients will be hydrating and softening. We recommend using it on a daily basis in place of your regular body cream or lotion. As for how long it will last- this depends greatly on how much you use, and how often you apply it.Answered on 2/17/2012 by Megan from LUSH
A:I think it will take awhile for the effects to wear off. There is good stuff packed in there! I use this once a day before bed, really I think that is all you need. Its so moisturizing that I dont think you need to use it more than that. That would just be product overload and wasting it. A little goes a long way with this stuff! I would say with daily application you can expect it to last AT least 2-3 months easy.Answered on 4/22/2012 by Susie from Ohio

A:Many doctors recommend avoiding various essential oils while pregnant, so I would recommend printing off the list of ingredients and discussing it with your doctor first! There are lots of LUSH products that are great for pregnant women, including Therapy, my favourite massage bar, that can help prevent and reduce the appearance of stretch marks!Answered on 1/31/2012 by Laura from LUSH
A:I would not see a problem with it. Again, check with your doc to be sure, but I would not use it on your stomach stick it its intended use, (one the girls)! Also I echo what the previous commenter said, therapy is WONDERFUL for pregnancy!Answered on 4/22/2012 by Susie from Ohio

"We used this for a birthday party invite for a baby. Love how it is completely customizable. Very quick review process. Incredibly fast shipping. I have bought multiple items from this site and have always been very impressed."
"I ordered this invitation for a winter wedding reception in December. It is elegant, modern and understated. Exactly what I wanted. The card stock is nice and the red print makes the invitation festive without being too cutesy. I was late in ordering and used the expedited process. Super fast and got the invitation in 4 days. Just in time! I was thrilled with the purchase and customer service. I would definitely order from Wedding Divas again."
"This is a fantastically beautiful invitation.Love the colors and unique design and to make things even better, it arrived ahead of schedule and under budget! The guest of honor commented that these are her 2 favorite colors."
"We used this card for our rehearsal dinner invitation. The best part was that we could change the word "Salud" to one that worked with our Greek themed party! Everyone who got their invites gushed over them and said they were one of the most fun and unique invites they had recieved, next to our wedding invites also from WPD."
"I used these invitations for my husband's 40th birthday party. He's a Maryland guy, so the crab and the nautical feel were perfect for a summery, outdoor party and raw bar. They weren't too feminine, but just exactly right for the event. They'd be adorable for an engagement party or summer couples' shower, or a BBQ/Crab feast or birthday party like ours. I absolutely LOVED these invitations and I have had literally dozens of compliments on these - everyone thinks they are adorable. Wedding Paper Divas - my only critisicm would be that these don't have any writing on the back to say where they are from! Normally, you see "Tiny Prints" or whatever printed on the back, but these are completely blank on the back. You should fix that because you'd sell oodles of these cute invitations here in Maryland! The paper is nice and thick, and the colors are crisp and beautiful. You will be SO happy with these invitations!"

An Aiken man who owes more than $1.7 million in taxes, interest and penalties could lose his home and the 150-acre property on which the Internal Revenue Service has a tax lien.
On Wednesday, the IRS and the U.S. Attorney General's Office filed a civil lawsuit in federal court against Edward "Ed" F. Scanlon, his wife Debra J. Scanlon and the First Citizens Bank and Trust Company hoping to foreclose on that lien.
The suit alleges that the Scanlons failed jointly to fully pay federal income tax in 2002, 2003 and 2004; and that Ed Scanlon failed to pay individually in 1999 and 2000. The total debt, according to court documents, is $1,709,654.90.
First Citizens is named in the suit as it holds the mortgage on the Kitchings Mill area property which the IRS wishes to foreclose on.
"This is an ongoing, longstanding problem between me and the IRS, having to do with income I generated years ago," Ed Scanlon said Thursday, who was unaware of the suit until contacted by the Aiken Standard. "I'm in the middle of changing my legal (and financial) representation. I hoped, I had hoped, they would defer any action for a month so I could get this worked out."
Ed Scanlon worked for the Greater Aiken Chamber of Commerce until Dec. 31, 2012, when his three-year contract as manager of equine development ended, according to Chamber President J. David Jameson.
Debra Scanlon is a retired horse trainer, according to Ed Scanlon's profile on the Greater Aiken Chamber of Commerce's website.
Ed Scanlon added that the income in question was earned when he lived in Texas years ago and that he expects the issue to be dealt with soon.
"This will be settled short of foreclosure," he said. "The amount of money they are asking for is in no relation to the amount of money I had."
The IRS said Ed Scanlon, a retired stockbroker, horse farmer and board member of the U.S. Polo Association, owes $1,153,149.95 in taxes, interest and penalties from 1999 and 2000.
The Scanlons jointly owe $556,505.95 for years 2002-2004, according to court documents. The couple did file returns for those years, but not in a timely fashion, the IRS said. The complaint states that their 2002 and 2003 returns were filed in 2007, and their 2004 return was filed in October 2005.
The lien on the 376 Burkelo Road property near Wagener has been in place since March 25, 2008, according to the complaint.

Two North Augusta brothers were killed after leading authorities on a high-speed car chase that began in Augusta and ended when the vehicle struck a tree in North Augusta, according to police.
Derrick Darden, 23, and his brother, Deante Darden, 22, both of North Augusta, were pronounced dead at the scene of the crash about 2 a.m. on Wednesday on Carolina Springs Road, according to Aiken County Coroner Tim Carlton.
According to the Richmond County Sheriff's Office, a deputy attempted to stop the car the brothers were in when he observed them speeding on Broad Street in Augusta.
The deputy attempted to catch up to the vehicle and observed the car driving erratically, police said. The vehicle, a 2007 Chevrolet Impala, initially pulled over at the corner of 4th and Reynolds streets in Augusta, and, as the deputy exited his patrol cruiser and approached the Impala, the brothers took off at a high rate of speed, police said.
The vehicle traveled into South Carolina on the Gordon Highway Bridge at speeds in excess of 100 mph, police said. The vehicle took the Martintown Road exit and traveled on several other roads before it went off the roadway and struck a tree at 515 Carolina Springs Road, police said.
Neither man was wearing a seat belt and both died from multiple body trauma, Carlton said. An autopsy for Derrick Darden, who was the driver, is scheduled for today in Newberry, and toxicology is pending, Carlton said.
The officer involved in the chase, Deputy Bert Gates, is a 22-year veteran of the Sheriff's Office and is currently assigned to the office's DUI Task Force.

U.S. Rep. Dan Boren recently announced that he will not be seeking re-election for a fifth term in Congress next year. Boren said he is through with politics and has no specific plans for his next career move.
"I don't have a job lined up," he said in an interview following his stunning announcement. "I am very open. I haven't had much time to think about it."
Boren expressed hope that whatever he ends up doing next he will be able to remain in Oklahoma, but he left the door open to taking a job outside the state.
Boren conceded the 2nd District, dominated overwhelmingly by Democratic politics for decades, has turned into a more competitive district, but said facing a tougher re-election race was not that much of a factor in his decision.
"I believe I would be successful," he said. "It is just the constant campaigning, the constant fundraising."
Boren's surprise announcement will change the political landscape in his district, which covers eastern counties of Oklahoma.
After serving one two-year term in the state House of Representatives, Dan Boren won his current office for the first time in 2004.
President Barack Obama commended Boren for his public service in a statement issued by the White House.
"Over the course of his career, both in Washington and in the Oklahoma Legislature, Dan has exemplified a commitment to creating jobs and economic opportunity for his constituents and rural communities, all the while continuing his family's long line of public service and dedication to the state of Oklahoma," the president said.

Rutland Town board considers going digitalBy Courtney Parker
CORRESPONDENT | June 22,2013Out with the old and in with the new was a theme of the Rutland Town Select Boards meeting this week, as board members discussed going paperless and using iPads.
Selectman John Faignant was approached by a local iPad distributor who suggested the Apple mobile tablets for municipal use. He said he found it a worthwhile consideration for the board.
It certainly got my attention, Faignant said. Its really neat information.
Other board members had similar reactions, agreeing that an educational meeting would be beneficial.
I think its a good idea, said Selectman Don Chioffi, adding the idea had already crossed his mind.
Chioffi said the devices would offer a more convenient way of circulating important documents to the board. They would also reduce the use of paper.
According to Faignant, the iPad distributor told him other towns in the region have taken the digital route and found the devices a worthy investment, recouping initial costs within the first year.
Lets get the information and go from there, said Selectman Joseph Dicton.
An appointment was scheduled for July 30 with a representative from Small Dog Electronics, which recently opened an Apple store in Rutland.MORE IN This Just InNEW YORK Yes, your mutual fund may own some Greek stocks.

Sunday, August 26, 2012 will mark the 92nd anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, guaranteeing women the right to vote and the 38th anniversary of former Governor Brendan T. Byrne signing legislation to establish the New Jersey Division on Women. Please join DCF in honoring the voting rights of American women.
Following more than 70 years of peaceful civil rights protests, the United States Congress finally ratified the 19th Amendment in 1920 and granted women the right to vote. In 1971, the Joint Resolution of Congress established August 26th as Women's Equality Day in recognition of the 1920 passage of the 19th Amendment.
Women's Equality Day also reminds us of the need to continue to work each day for equality, justice, peace, and development for women from various nationalities, ethnicities, cultures, religions, economic, and political backgrounds.
This Women's Equality Day, please take a moment to reflect on women's progress and celebrate the history and future of women's rights, privileges, and equality throughout our country.

Thursday, October 10, 2013
The rumbling of car engines filled the air in the parking lot at Creekside Center off U.S. 52 in Goose Creek Sept. 19 at a Charleston-Lowcountry Antique Automobile Club of America gathering.
The club's shows are growing in popularity for car enthusiasts across Berkeley County.
Dozens of classic and antique cars were on display Sept. 19. The show takes place on the third Thursday of the month from March through October, weather permitting, said Dennis Barfield, who is in charge.
Richard Strand of Goose Creek comes to the shows with his nephew Corey Ganger, 11.
"We need to get more young people involved in cars," Barfield said.
Bruce Powers of Moncks Corner brought his 1954 Hudson Hornet. He said he found the car in Hartsville about a year ago.
It has a "1956 Dodge Green" color.
Powers said he and his wife are currently working on about 16 cars.
"You don't see many Hornets," Powers said. "We started collecting things you don't see much."
One unique characteristic about the Hornet is that it is too hot to drive in the summer.
Powers' son Michael Powers, 16, described a brief history of the Hudson.
He said the last Hudson was built in 1957. They were made in Detroit from 1909 to 1957. In 1957 Hudson merged with Nash. The 1954 model was the last year with the step-down floorboard.
One oft-photographed vehicle was Larry Monheit's 1931 Model A Ford drop floor panel truck. It is only one of 10 known to be in existence, the Woodland Lakes, Goose Creek resident said. The truck was used for a variety of deliveries.
"Salesmen would put a clothes rack in for dry cleaning," Monheit said. "Hardware stores would deliver to customers."
Every year Monheit brings the truck to the Veterans Day parade in Charleston. This year that parade is Nov. 3 at 2 p.m.
He did all the restorative work on the vehicle, which he's owned for 16 years.
"It's a fun vehicle. We bring it to the Bike-A-Thon every year," he said.
Wayne Humphrey of Bonneau, took his 1971 Porsche 911 Targa to the show for the first time. He's had the car for nine years.
The Targa was a total wreck when he bought it, he said. It was eaten up with rust after sitting in a garage for 12 years.
"I worked on all that in my garage," Humphrey said. "I just got it finished this year. I found it up there at the lake from a retired Navy person.
"I've been working on it nine years. I did everything myself except the paint job - '71 Porsche Red."
Goose Creek Fire Department Capt. Mike Althoff hoisted a toddler into the cabin of a fire engine. He said the fire department is there to show kids fire trucks and the equipment.
