Stuart – Water is the single most important resource for the human body. Water is the most essential nutrient involved in every function of the body. Water accounts for approximately 70% of an individual’s complete fat free body mass. In order to function properly, water must be consumed in set quantities in consistent intervals (average of 2.5 liters per day). When not enough water is consumed, people can begin to develop certain illnesses and even accelerate their aging processes.

Now after establishing the importance of water, one must then think what kind of water is good to drink? Many people believe that the water concentrations in coffee, sodas, and energy drinks will be sufficient for the human body to function on optimal levels; but that is incorrect. Simply stated, the water from these beverages is nothing but poor quality distilled water

BNI is built upon the idea of Givers Gain(R): By giving business to others, you will get business in return. This is predicated on the age-old idea of "What goes around, comes around."

BNI helps members increase their business through a structured, positive, and professional "word-of-mouth" program that enables them to develop long-term, meaningful relationships with quality business professionals.

BNI is like having dozens of sales people working for you... because all of them carry several copies of your business cards around with them. When they meet someone who could use your products or services, they take out your card and recommend you.

STUART , FL – On Thursday, February 25, 2010, the Power Lunch Bunch hosted their monthly luncheon at Courtine’s restaurant in Stuart. With over 50 women in attendance, the group continues to celebrate 10 years of meeting and encouraging women in business on the Treasure Coast . What began as a the vision of 10 women to create an opportunity for creative and casual networking, has grown into an opportunity for over 300 women in business on the Treasure Coast to support and encourage one another. The group enjoyed the luncheon, mixed and mingled, had the opportunity to promote her business, and dozens of guests received monthly “door prizes” that are graciously donated by regular attendees and local business owners.

Moreover, according to the Treasure Coast Business Journal (2001), “For years women have had a few opportunities to meet as a group and talk about their business interests in a purely social setting. There are many women organizations where they pay a membership fee and are encouraged to get involved in committees and projects, but nothing that offers them the freedom of networking with other business women, women who volunteer and women who stay at home. Women who attend the lunch bring their business cards or printed information about their business and leave them at each place setting on the restaurants tables so they can be contacted if needed. They recently decided to give themselves a name and the overwhelming favorite was the Power Lunch Bunch. So far is the only formalization of the group and they want to keep it that way” [Source: www.powerlunchbunch.com].

Finally, thanks must be extended to the monthly lunch team, who give their time and dedication every month to contact group members;. Patty Smail, Robin Delgado, Tami Karol-Nicholas, Susan Webb, Linda Probst, and Florence Howe. They are the backbone of the gathering. According to Anne Thompson Schafer, Power Lunch Bunch Founder (2009), “The energy that we have is wonderful! The friendship and service given is awesome! As we go into our tenth year we can look forward to many new friendships, togetherness, much laughter, and meeting and greeting many, more women of interest ... we have much to be thankful for! I sincerely thank all of YOU!” [Source: www.powerlunchbunch.com].

The Power Lunch Bunch is a group of professional women interesting in fostering a professional and personal relationships with other women business owners on the Treasure Coast . They meet the fourth Thursday of each month at 11:30a, and the cost is $18pp for lunch, networking, and fellowship opportunities.

Stuart – If your solution to surviving the recession is to cut costs and lay low, think again. Capitalizing on contacts and expanding your network can help grow a business in any economy.

With more than 50 networking events every year, the Stuart/Martin County Chamber of Commerce is a good starting point in expanding the reach for businesses of any size.

“There are countless opportunities to market and grow your business through the chamber,” says Chamber volunteer Ambassador Dick Hall. “With this New membership initiative, we’re hoping to show new and existing businesses how the chamber is a business partner.”

A chamber business membership extends chamber opportunities to all the business’ employees, who can then take advantage of seminars, focus groups and special events as well. In addition to providing valuable business tips and information, chamber programs enable employees and business owners to build helpful contacts.

Whether you own a business, represent one, lead a corporate office, or manage an association, the Stuart/Martin County Chamber of Commerce® provides you with a voice of experience and influence locally as well as in Tallahassee. Our core mission is to fight for business and free enterprise before the State Legislature, the Governor’s mansion, regulatory agencies, the courts and the court of public opinion.

From its headquarters on Kanner Highway, the Chamber maintains a professional energetic staff representing you.

Our members include businesses of all sizes and sectors—from large Fortune 500 companies to home-based, one-person operations. In fact, 96% of our membership encompasses businesses with fewer than 50 employees.

Florida's incoming legislative leaders want private sector recommendations on how to create jobs.

The challenge is real. We can't wait for long-range economic stimulus strategies. Florida needs jobs now, which requires immediate injections of revenue into our economy. Where will the revenues come from? Hint: Sixty percent of all new jobs in this state come from small business, which represents 99 percent of all employers. Treat small businesses well and the reward will be revenues and jobs.

House and Senate legislators, please consider these other recommendations:

Finance: Businesses need immediate access to capital. Bank examiners and government regulators are hurting this effort by questioning and chastising banks for making many loans to business. This must stop and sound lending practices must resume, and an economic recovery won't start until that happens.

Road-building: Florida has transportation industry backlogs of $30 billion in projects. Put the road-building industry back to work. Rail transit is too costly, and in South Florida it carries less than 1 percent of our traffic.

Affordable housing: Foreclosures in Florida increased 34 percent in 2009. We have a housing glut, yet many of these homes remain unaffordable. Tap into the funds available in the Sadowski Housing Trust Fund, and make funds available only for down-payment assistance. This will increase property tax revenues and create private wealth. Also, consumer spending and sales tax revenues will increase when new homeowners furnish their homes, and make renovations and improvements. This translates into new jobs in construction and retail.

Medical needs and health care: The world's aging population increasingly is willing to spend personal money and savings on medical needs. With strong national and international ad campaigns, aging citizens in America and the world can be persuaded to come to Florida to have their medical needs satisfied. The ads, working in synergy with Florida's world-class medical facilities and medical research institutes, would encourage people to come here to spend their discretionary health care dollars. Sales revenues would flow.

Energy: Oil drilling is another smart approach to create new, high-wage jobs in Florida. Economic projections show Florida could create 17,000 jobs if the legislature allowed increased oil and gas production in distant offshore waters.

Curtail state regulations that impede job growth: Some 1,200 new state rules were imposed in the first nine months of 2009. This is government inflicting economic death by a thousand cuts. Such interference in private companies by government has got to stop. The Legislature and local governments must remove overlapping, burdensome, unnecessary and costly regulations that inhibit job growth. City and county fiscal policies must deliver predictable taxation and spending. Business needs government to get out of the way, more than we need government money.

Cluster: Promote formation of business clusters - geographic concentrations of firms and industries - that do business with one another and share similar needs. This promotes economic development by product innovation and improvement.

Creating 300,000 jobs in Florida is what we need over the next 10 years. This requires cooperation between the political left and right. I hear rhetoric from the "progressives" in the Legislature about creating jobs, but so far it's hot air. It's easy for leftists to spout words, but that doesn't tell us what your principles are. Your votes tell us that. And the voter posse is watching.

By Jan Foselli, Out2News contributing "Business" section columnist

Performance Management, a.k.a. annual reviews, is an integral part of managing employees. “Ugh,” you groan, “I can’t stand completing reviews – they are so useless.” I am going to challenge you on your opinion. Why do you feel they are useless? Why don’t you like to complete them? How do your employees feel about them? Is your review system meaningful to the employee? Are you afraid to confront performance issues during the review process????

Hmmm, I think I hit a nerve with that last question – ‘are you afraid to confront performance issues during the review process?’ Employees want feedback – they crave it. They want to know if they are doing a great job, a good job or a bad job. The point is – they want to hear something from you: their supervisor.

So, why is it so difficult to let your direct report know they aren’t meeting your expectations? Why would you let one of your employees continually make mistakes, or not provide the level of service that you expect?

The discussion of an annual review is really not that difficult. You need to treat your poor performing employee with dignity and respect. Put yourself in their shoes and think about how you would want your supervisor to talk to you about your performance. Aahh, that was easy. Now you just need to do the same.

Leila Bulling Towne, from the Bulling Towne Group, recommends these tips in speaking to someone about performance issues:

1. “This is what is working.” – tell your employee what they are doing right.

2. “This is what I need you to do differently/improve upon—and why.” – give them a reason or show them an example of what they are not doing right.

3. “What questions do you have? What help can I provide?” - offer your assistance. Maybe they weren’t trained properly or maybe there is another situation in the office that is hindering their ability to do their job. If you don’t ask, then you won’t know.

4. “Thank you.” – finish your performance management session with a sincere Thank You.

Constructive criticism, which is occurring in Step 2 above, is about improving performance and changing behaviors. The performance management session provides an opportunity for clear, honest communication around unproductive and ineffective methods. It is a chance to work towards agreement on remedies so mistakes won’t happen again.

Performance management, reviews, annuals – whatever you choose to call it – is NOT a dreaded activity. It is a chance to have a meaningful discussion with your employees. It is an opportunity to give and receive feedback. Lastly, it is an occasion to improve performance and communication with your most valuable asset – your employees.

Hobe Sound -- In response to the earthquake disaster in Haiti, Waste Management has committed $250,000 to emergency response efforts and long-term rebuilding projects.

Waste Management has contributed $50,000 to the World Vision Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund. An international relief organization, World Vision has been working in Haiti for more than 30 years and has 370 staff members currently in Port-au-Prince to help implement its disaster recovery plan.

The company is also providing up to $100,000 to match employees’ personal donations to World Vision and Habitat for Humanity and another $100,000 to support community partners engaging in ongoing disaster response and rebuilding initiatives for Haiti.

Nearly 500 employees of Haitian descent work for Waste Management in Florida alone.

In addition to monetary contributions, Waste Management has also donated 200 cases of water and Gatorade and more than 800 ready-to-eat meals to Coconut Creek-based Food for the Poor. Shipping containers have also been delivered to four Waste Management locations, including Martin County, and are being filled by employees with food, water, medical supplies and clothing to benefit World Harvest Missions based in Lake Worth. If the community would like to donate any of these items for Haitian Relief Efforts, they may be dropped off during business hours from 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. weekdays at Waste Management of Martin County's facility located at 7700 S.E. Bridge Road in Hobe Sound.

“The world is witnessing a terrible tragedy, and our company is extending its financial support in many different ways to help those impacted by this natural disaster,” said Tim Hawkins, Vice President for Waste Management of South Florida. “Our continuing concern, sympathies and support go to our co-workers and their families who are dealing personally and directly with this disaster and to the people of Haiti.”

Martin County, Florida -- We at Out2News.com and Out2martincounty.com support the U.S. Chamber of Commerce “American Free Enterprise “Dream Big” program. We know that, as a nation, we face major policy challenges—none greater or more important than creating the 20 million jobs needed in the next decade to replace the jobs lost in the current recession and to meet the needs of America’s growing workforce.

We know that only American free enterprise is capable of meeting this challenge and creating the innovation and opportunities of America’s future.

Although Americans have become increasingly concerned about the economy, their faith in the free enterprise system remains strong, according to a survey by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. While government efforts to stimulate the economy are considered theoretically useful in the short term, we as Americans believe that it’s the free enterprise system that will grow our economy and create jobs over the long term.

We believe in the essential role that free enterprise plays in strengthening our economy and in the many ways in which we as individuals benefit from the American free enterprise system.

Please join us in preserving and advancing the American free enterprise system and help ensure that every American has the opportunity to make an entrepreneurial idea become reality — to help ensure that we all have the opportunity to dream big.

Craig Wherle told us that; “Pittsburgh Pies was born from our WSTU radio show when the idea of making a special Pittsburgh Steeler Pie evolved with my sister and her friend. About that time, the Steelers started making a serious run for the super bowl and as luck would have it, # 43 was ours again”.

Wherle went on top say; ”Making just one or two styles of pies seemed to be a lot of work without a theme or complete program from which to float this idea when the thought came to us that there are, or could be many different types of pies, not the least of which is a “pizza pie”. As fate would have it, they have a pizza oven at their catering facility! So the ideas kept coming and throughout the creative process, the overall theme of “Pittsburgh” kept emerging. Why not feature food Pittsburghers remember and may not have eaten since they left the north. They then set out to find the foods like Isaly’s chipped ham, strawberry pie from eat’n park, and ethnic foods which they could place into pie shells. They created the Pittsburgh pizza slab, using chipped ham and have developed some special items such as the # 7, Big Ben combo sub and the alloy mini-ingot.

A visit to Pittsburgh pies, in the heart of the Rio research triangle, will not only please your taste buds, but also your memories as you will want to spend time viewing our gallery of people, places, and things, famous in Pittsburgh and the surrounding area. They will appreciate any food ideas as well as items you may wish to donate to the Pittsburgh gallery.

STUART, FL. – Debbie Roberts of Massage & Fitness Professionals of the Treasure Coast has graciously provided a $500 scholarship to a fine young man that has been an inspiration by his dedication to life. Christian Wonders (17), a pitcher for the Martin County High School ’s (MCHS) baseball team is dedicated to his family, his school work, his baseball, and his desire to always improve physically. With the support of his family, and people like Debbie Roberts, Wonders believes in hard work and has a clear plan for his future.

Since visiting Massage & Fitness Professionals of the Treasure Coast with his Northstars baseball team Coach, Mark Rogers when he was 11 years old; Wonders discovered a true passion for his sport. Moreover, found a generous mentor in Debbie Roberts, L.M.T., Certified Personal Trainer, and Post Rehab Specialist. Roberts who has been helping Wonders, off and on throughout his athletic career. Additionally, Roberts has not only helped Wonders with personal training, but as a neuromuscular therapist as well. This past season Wonders hurt his back and Roberts helped facilitate Wonders getting “back in the game.”

Wonders, not only plays for Jerry Smith of the MCHS team, but also for Rich Korte, with an “18 and under” Travel team. Last season, right after the back injury, with the help of Roberts, Wonders came back from his injury to throw a complete game shutout with 12 strike-outs and another unbelievable game. The life of a pitcher is oftentimes filled with physical strain, Wonders has also suffered injuries to his shoulder playing as a pitcher. Yet going into his senior year at MCHS, Wonders works almost every night on the exercises that Roberts had set up in his workout plan. While speaking to this reporter, Wonders reflected on his ability to never miss a game, and attributed this feat to the Fitness Plan and Rehab afforded to him by the Scholarship from Massage & Fitness Professionals of the Treasure Coast .

Wonders, as well as his parents, cannot thank Debbie Roberts and her staff enough for the Scholarship, “for everything that they have done tending to my injuries, therapy, and working out, helping me to get stronger, and improve,” says Wonders. Additionally, his mother, Kerrie Wonders stated, “We cannot thank Debbie (Roberts) enough, not only for the time, knowledge and skills, but also the care and dedication that she has shown toward our son’s athletic career. She really cares, and we trust her tremendously. We highly recommend Debbie and all of her staff.”

Please watch for a great year from this inspiring young man. Wonders is currently attending MCHS dual enrollment, and although he had enjoyed his camp experience at the University of Miami , and the Showcase Tournament in Georgia ; this young man has yet to commit to a college in the Fall. Wonders is keeping his options open, and has been inspired to work toward a degree in Sports Medicine from working with Roberts.

Massage & Fitness Professionals of the Treasure Coast is generously looking forward to offering a similar Scholarship to another deserving Martin County athlete this 2009-2010 school year. Athletic Directors, Coaches, and parents may contact Massage & Fitness Professionals of the Treasure Coast for more details.

***PRESENT THIS ADD AT TIME OF SERVICE AND RECEIVE $20 OFF. THAT'S BETTER THAN A 20% SAVINGS***

STUART -- With the economy prompting more spendthrift habits, a company’s commitment to customer service is especially essential to its success. That commitment was the very reason Stuart Jet Center was just named one of the best general aviation facilities in the nation.

Stuart Jet Center received the industry’s coveted ExxonMobil Aviation’s Gold award for its “outstanding delivery of customer service, facilities, amenities, and quality control.” Embodying Stuart Jet Center’s philosophy of customer care were two employees, Richard and Heather Kraemer, also honored among “the best general aviation service representatives in the nation,” in receiving ExxonMobil Aviation’s Golden Employee Merit award.

“Even tough times present great opportunities,” said Dan Capen, president of Stuart Jet Center. “I’ve said all along this economy is ripe for a renaissance of customer service. I’m proud that our pledge to provide the most pleasant experience possible to our customers has never wavered, and that our staff was nationally recognized for its dedication and hard work.” In its 20th year, the ExxonMobil program calls on customers to rate Fixed Base Operators like Stuart Jet Center according to customer service, facility appearance, quality control and personnel certification achievements. Last year, pilots and schedulers returned nearly 6,000 surveys and Stuart Jet Center ranked among the top 15 percent.

“The program is highly competitive and extremely beneficial as it challenges our FBOs to deliver customer care of a gold caliber in the general aviation industry,” said Richard Oldham, of ExxonMobil Aviation’s North American division. “Winners like Stuart Jet Center and its employees, Richard and Heather Kraemer, have earned the utmost respect and praise of the people we value most—the customers.”

Stuart Jet Center serves local and worldwide professional pilots who visit their facilities for refueling, catering and other needs.

Stuart -- It’s no secret that the real estate market is hurting. But creative Realtors are embracing the challenge and finding innovative ways to sell their properties.

Inspired by emerging national trends, Realtors of Re/Max Realty in Stuart are taking the concept of “staging” over the top—the roof top, that is.

A quaint, charming place with chic boutiques and restaurants, downtown Stuart is best showcased from an elevated, panoramic view, so that’s just what agents at Re/Max will do at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at The Osceola Place, 47 Osceola St. in Stuart.

Going beyond the traditional staging elements of trendy furniture and home-baked cookies, they’re recreating a cocktail party complete with hot tub, shish kabobs, martinis, and models.

This elegant and stylish soirée will be filmed and photographed for print and online video advertisements and will appear in DuPont Registry ads on select international flights and at virtual tours online.

The Osceola Place not only offers expansive rooftops with stunning views of the St. Lucie River and The Lyric Theatre, but puts homeowners in the epicenter of an environment that’s ideal for lifestyles ranging from the laidback to the enterprising. Such a setting deserves a display that goes beyond the classic “open house” approach—and aims to help put Florida’s fledging real estate market back on top.
