By Lauren JonesEditor

The Artrageous Artwalk kicked off its 2010 season Saturday with a wide variety of art including weav-ing work, photographs and paint-ings by local artists.

This free event showcases local artists and galleries in downtown Fernandina.

Stories vary on the artwalk’s ori-gins, but some things are clear. The artwalk started as a small showing about seven years ago. There were a few artists who were a part of the Is-land Art Association and have been showing together for more than 10 years. A few local artists set out their work and other galleries started to join in. They all pitched in money to pay for marketing. The Tourist Development Council now takes care of the advertising and produces a brochure. A lot of people visiting Amelia Island browse the galleries each month, says Theresa Daily. The walk was formerly on the first Fridays until last year. They didn’t have a lot of people attend because the tourists were just getting into town and either didn’t know about it or didn’t have time to get to it.

Daily says it helped with traffic when it was moved to Saturdays. Daily shares a room on Centre Street with Carol Sprovtsoff. They have worked together for five years and have seen the change of the economy affect their sales.

“You have to keep working. Just because you don’t sell something doesn’t mean you stop making art,” Daily said.

The artwalk mainly helps them with networking and recognition. But they say it’s nice when they sell

pieces as well. “We get to

meet a lot of people and so-cialize,” Sprovt-soff said.

Across the hall at Blue Door Artists, a man sits talking to everyone who comes in. John D’Agnese shows his late wife’s artwork at the gallery and has been doing so since her death in 1999.

Helen D’Agnese went to art school when she had seven children and a husband, while living in El, Paso Texas. Her and her husband

traveled on cruises together and she drew a lot of inspiration from the landscape at the many ports they visited. She followed her dreams and did so because she wanted to, not to just make money. She later became quite famous for her work. Her paintings have been in the White House during the Carter ad-ministration, the Vatican Museum in Rome, the Juarez Art Museum in Mexico and other churches and museums in the state. She donated a lot of her work as well. She won many awards and recognitions for her work and her husband says he is making sure to keep her legacy alive.

“I like showing her work and communicating with people,” John said.

John owns his own cruise ship consulting business in Fernandina.

He tells her story and shows her work still. It is almost a job for him but he does it out of love for his wife. He shows a photo of her from his wallet and says, “Isn’t she beauti-ful?”

Helen’s art is a lot of primitive work, abstract and multimedia work. Some pieces are done with glass pieces she collected at beaches and assembled on canvases.

Other galleries participating in the artwork this year are Designs on Sax, Hunt’s Art and Artifact Gallery and more.

The artwalk happens every first Saturday of the month from April to December from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at various galleries in downtown Fernandina and is free to the public. You can download a brochure with a map and a full list of participating galleries at www.ameliaisland.com.

on two counts of lewd and lascivious molestation, one count of lewd and lascivious conduct and one count of sexual battery.

Stram registered as a sex offender in Nassau County in October 2009 when he moved in with his fiancé’ and four juveniles in Calla-han. He was first convicted of a sexual offense against a minor in 2003. One of the four juveniles wrote a letter to a friend stating that the suspect had been touching the children inappropriately. Authorities interviewed the 15-year-old victim who gave a full account of Stram in-appropriately touching the minor after the minor got out of the shower on multi-ple occasions. After further investigation, detectives dis-covered Stram was molest-ing three of the juveniles. All of the children have been removed from the home. Stram is currently being held in the Nassau County De-tention Center on $500,008 bond.

You don’t have to be a famous chef on The Food Network to make a dish or entire meal pre-sentable and tasty. You defiantly don’t need a lot of money. So all you cooks of Nassau County; let’s exchange recipes. Send me your thoughts on mine and send in your own.

I see cooking as therapeutic. It’s an experiment that you can make your own. I can only describe this love of cooking with a quote by Julie Powell, played by Amy Ad-ams in Julie and Julia.

“You know what I love about cooking? I love that after a day when nothing is sure, and when I say noth-ing, I mean nothing, you can come home and absolutely know that if you add egg yolks to chocolate and sugar and milk, it will get thick. It’s such a comfort.”

For the first recipe, I made a fruit pizza. I adapted mine from one Paula Dean makes.

Like millions of your fel-low citizens, you may be filing your taxes this week. If you think that things might have turned out dif-ferently had you paid less in investment-related taxes, you might want to take steps soon to help ensure a differ-ent outcome in 2011.

Here are some “tax-smart” strategies to consider:

• Invest in municipal bonds. If you’re in one of the upper income brackets, you might benefit from owning municipal bonds. The interest payments from “munis” are typically exempt from federal in-come taxes, and may also be exempt from state and local taxes, depending on where you live. (How-ever, the interest from some types of munis may be subject to the alternative minimum tax, or AMT.)

• “Max out” on your Roth IRA. If you qualify for a Roth IRA, try to fully fund it every year. Your earnings grow tax-free, provided you’ve had your account at least five years and you don’t take with-drawals until you’re at least 59-1/2. And now, it’s easier to convert a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. Under previous rules, you could only convert if your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) was $100,000 or less. But starting this year, you can convert funds to a Roth IRA even if your MAGI is over $100,000. And if you convert in 2010, you can report the taxable income from the conversion

Achoo! (God bless you.) Such are the sounds of the season. . . and a humdinger it is! Due to this year’s colder than usual win-ter, the pollen season is later and heavier than most years, resulting in one of the worst al-lergy seasons in recent memory. Despite the recent nice weather, many folks are miserable with seasonal allergies. Also, known as “hay fever,” neither hay nor fever are involved. We all know the common symptoms: runny nose, sneezing, scratchy throat, itchy, teary eyes and

general misery. Although we see the yellow dust of pine

pollen everywhere, it is not the worst culprit. The pollens which most cause allergy symp-toms in Northeast Florida are from oak, red cedar and cypress trees; all of which generate microscopic pollen that invisibly creep into the respiratory system and make you miser-able.

So, what can you do to lessen your suffer-ing? Although not practical, the most effec-

tive treatment is to avoid the source of the allergens and stay indoors. Keep the windows closed, run the air conditioning and limit out-door activities. While over the counter anti-histamines, such as Zyrtec and Claritin offer relief, they will not be effective if you are expe-riencing a cold rather than allergies. Also, with allergies the nasal discharge is clear, not cloudy or yellow as with a cold.

If over-the-counter antihistamines do not provide adequate relief or if your symptoms are worsening to the point of painful sinuses, then you may need to visit a physician for further assessment and possibly stronger, pre-scription-strength antihistamines.

Prescription medications may include nasal steroids and antihistamines, ocular (eye) anti-histamine drops and newer generation medi-cations such as Xyzal and Clarinex. Nasal decongestants should be avoided due to addic-tion. Remember to check with your physician as antihistamines may cause problems if you have certain medical conditions such as glau-coma or bladder problems. Should you not get sufficient relief from prescription medications, then a visit to an allergist may be in order.

This article was produced by Amelia Urgent Care, Fernandina Beach and River City Mar-ketplace, which is open every day for walk-in treatment of non life-threatening injuries and illnesses, including seasonal allergies. Informa-tion in the article is general and not to be con-strued as medical advice.

FruiT PizzA1 roll sugar cookie dough 1 8 oz. package cream cheese

at room temperature (You can use fat-free or low-fat)

1 cup confectioners sugar1 peach sliced1 tangerine sliced1 cup strawberries sliced in

half1/4 cup melted chocolate

Roll the cookie dough on a piz-za baking dish. Bake for 17 min-utes at 350 degrees. Mix the sug-ar and cream cheese. Set aside. When the cookie crust is done, let it cool for about 15 minutes. Spread cream cheese mixture on the crust, leaving the edges exposed. Arrange sliced fruit on the pizza. I started with the larger slices on the outside and worked my way in, adding the blueber-ries last. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. With a spoon, driz-zle chocolate over top of pizza.

The crust is crunchy so you can slice it and eat it like a pizza slice with your hands. If you don’t like it crunchy, cook the cookie dough for about 10 minutes. You can make this your own by using any assortment of fruit. To add more variety of color, I would add kiwis and bananas. My shop-ping list (minus the sugar that I already had in my pantry) was around $12. The pizza serves about 10 people.

April 15, 2010| The Nassau News 3

Like many who work for the church, my wife and I usually schedule some runaway time right after Easter every year. We spent last week in Fairhope, AL, a beautiful little town on the east side of Mobile Bay. While we were there we spent most of one day at nearby Bellingrath Gardens, just south of Mobile. For flower-loving people like us, we could not have planned the trip at a better time. Everywhere we went, the azal-eas, wisteria and dogwoods were in full bloom and the camellias were just finishing up their display. We snapped several pictures and bought a souvenir book so we could remem-ber the beauty we saw, but mostly, we just soaked it in. The azaleas were particularly spectacular. In every im-aginable variety and color, from the small ones like we can have in our tiny yard to plants that towered at twice my height and burst forth in rich and vibrant colors, they put on quite a show.

A word we heard over and over from folks around us as we strolled through the Garden was breathtaking. The guides and maps the Garden provided used that word a lot too. Every season, the promise is breathtaking as the garden staff provides just the right plants for every season.

I understand why people call displays like that breathtaking. I’m not nearly the pho-tographer our younger son is, but one of the pictures I snapped looks good enough to be a calendar illustration, and, I suspect some would call it a breathtaking shot.

In my case, though, that day surrounded by the beauty of what God has made was much more breath-giving than breathtaking. For those of us who work in the church the days and weeks leading up to Easter can be breath-taking, not because of any splendor in them, but simply because of what they require of us. Weeks of events and activities designed to help people experience God’s grace and

mercy don’t just happen. They are followed by Easter which usually means extra worship opportunities and lots of special things which don’t just happen on their own, either. Now you know why some of us run away for a few days after the big Easter celebration.

For many years, our runaway place has been in the mountains of East Tennessee. Friends used to tease us that we missed what

most people go to that part of the country to see because we’d rather sit by a creek or walk in the woods than go to shows or outlet malls. They were right, but we knew why we went. While we were renewing our spirits in Fairhope and Bell-ingrath on this year’s after Easter runaway, nearby Gulf Shores and Orange Beach were filled, I’m sure, with spring breakers who would have scoffed at us old folks spending our time watching azal-eas bloom.

The breath-giving time we got to enjoy for a few days will enable us to hit the ground running now that we’re back at work, find-ing ways to help our congregation continue to experience Easter joy. In fact, the time we spend together in worship, in study, and in other activities designed to help us grow as disciples is a lot like our time away. Most of what happens in worship is not breathtaking. Sometimes the music is spectacular. Some-times the preaching is better than others. But I don’t remember many Sundays when folks came out of worship using “breathtaking” to describe what they had just experienced.

I hope that what we do in worship and in other areas of the Church’s life can be breath-giving, even when they’re not breathtaking. As we worship and learn and grow together, God renews and empowers us for service we can’t deliver by our own power. I’m thankful for all the ways the breath of God comes to us. I hope you experience it in ways that are meaningful and sustaining for you too.

With all my dedication directed at spring gobbler season I have not been able to put much time in on the water. However, I have recently fished a couple of times with great results. Last Wednesday I snuck a couple of hours in on the outgoing

tide, late after-noon.

I fished a creek mouth with a Skitter Walk for the first hour and had phe-nomenal results. I caught over 20 trout up to 22 inches. I noticed the trout were ambushing small shrimp in about six inches of wa-

ter, so I switched baits up. I used a three-inch Berkley Gulp mullet on a 16-ounce jig head and had imme-diate results. Dark was approaching quickly so I left the fish biting.

On the way back to the boat ramp I fished a few docks with some lights. I noticed bait being am-bushed under the lights so I set up to cast. First toss was a 23-inch trout. Next cast was a 20-incher. I fished for about 20 minutes and had non-stop action. In more than two hours, I caught close to 60 trout. This is a

nice change compared to the cold water fishing doldrums we have ex-perienced the past three months. I have talked with several other local fisherman and they reported increas-ing numbers as well.

Kent Poteat recently took a trip with a few friends and family. Us-ing Carolina rigs fitted with dead shrimp, they absolutely destroyed the whiting. The majority of the fish were in the one-pound range. If you know whiting fish, you know that catching over 50 in the over one-pound range is a great day. Not only did Kent have a great day on the wa-ter fishing but got an added bonus as well. On the way back he noticed some eagles fishing on the south end of the island. He slowed down to observe the beautiful birds and got some great pictures as well. Kent at-tributes the rising number of eagle sightings to great conservational ef-forts.

Captain Dan Flynn also reports staggering numbers in shore as well. He reported catching some very nice trout in the over 25-inch range us-ing live shrimp under a float. He also caught some very nice over slot reds as well, especially in the vicinity of the south jetty. With the red drum, he also reported catching and seeing some very nice black drum being caught. An 82-pounder was landed

in the Bladerunner vessel.The offshore report improves dai-

ly. Captain Alan Mills gave a great report this week. The sea bass are still being caught in huge numbers. He has also had great results with the snapper and grouper offshore even though all these fish are still catch and release only. The wahoo bite has slowed down in the stream but trolling for these strikers is still pro-ducing results. The dolphin bite has picked up this week but the water still needs to warm up just a tad for them to really turn on. He also had

some success with the kingfish at L Bottom, but not huge numbers.

With the great report he also in-formed me of an upcoming local fishing event. The Amelia Island Blue Water Shootout will be held on Mothers Day weekend. The captains meeting will be held May 7, the tournament takes place May 8 and a huge fish fry May 9. For more in-formation on Alan’s charters or the upcoming tournament visit www.accharters.net.

Until next time, good luck and be safe out there.

Trivia by Maggie “The TriviaMeisTer”

over a two-year period, in 2011 and 2012. • Distribute assets between taxable and re-

tirement accounts. You’ll want to look at all your investments as a whole to determine if they’re working together to help you achieve your goals. But in considering ways to control investment taxes, you may also find it useful to look at two separate categories: your tax tax-deferred retirement accounts, such as your tra-ditional IRA and your 401(k), and your taxable accounts, which hold all the investments not in your retirement accounts. As a (very) general rule, you might want to put income-produc-ing securities, such as taxable bonds, into your tax-deferred retirement accounts. When you ultimately take out this money, presumably at retirement, your withdrawals will be taxed at your income tax rate, but by then, you may be in a lower tax bracket. Conversely, you may want to put growth-oriented securities, such as

stocks, in your taxable account; as long as you hold these assets at least a year, you’ll only have to pay the long-term capital gains rate, which is currently 15 percent if you’re in one of the top three tax brackets. (This rate may soon rise, however.)

• Sell your “losers” throughout the year. If you own investments that have lost value and that you don’t need to keep for other reasons (such as portfolio balance), consider selling them throughout the year. Your losses can off-set any capital gains you might have achieved; if you don’t have any gains, the losses can offset up to $3,000 of your regular income. Plus, any losses that you don’t use in a given year can be carried forward indefinitely for use against fu-ture capital gains.

Before embarking on any of these strate-gies, consult with your tax advisor. Every “tax-smart” move may not be appropriate for your individual situation. But if you’re concerned about the impact of investment taxes, it can certainly pay to explore all your options.
