The tax commission wasongmally asked to rule onthe questIOn of tax-exemptstatus by Grosse PomteShores reSIdent LawrenceVan Ttl
The Shores opposed thetax commISSIOn's memo ontwo fronts FIrst, theyappealed the valuatIOn ofOSIUS Park to the localboard of review on thegrounds that the park, bylaw, can only be used formumclpal purposes Smce Itcan't be sold, It has no mar-ket value
Smce tax valuations aretraditionally based on mar-ket value and the land hasno market value, It has notaxable value The board ofreView agreed WIth thISargument and 'reduced thepark's assessment to a tokensum
The Shores also mamtamsthat taxmg the park constI-tutes double taxatIOn Thevalue of homes in the ShoresIS greater because of OsiusPark ReSIdents pay proper-ty tax based on thiS greatvaluatIOn
CondommlUm ownersdon't pay tax on commonproperty hmlted to condo-mmmm association mem-bers because It IS assumedthat the value of thiS com-munal property IS reflectedIn the pnce of mdlVldualcondo umts
Parker doesn't buy eitherof these arguments He seesthem as dodges used by thePomtes to get out of paYIngtaxes they legally owe thecounty and the school dIs-tnct and when he saw whatthe Pomte governmentswere domg, he deCIded toact

"Now, you'd get rear-ended If you stopped yourcar at 11 o'clock," saidHudson Mead, a veteran ofthe Navy HospItal Corps
Murray Thomas, who flewP-47 and P-51 fighters \nEurope, said, "MemonalDay has become Just a dayofffrom work They put It ona different day every year tomake It converuent Prettysoon, I suppose, they11 haveChnstmas on a Monday so Itmakes a long weekend."
As Memonal Dayapproaches thIS Monday,May 28, a group of GrossePomte veterans talkedabout what the annualobservance means to them,and what they hope It Wlllmean to generatIOns thatfollow
The former WWII sol-diers, sadors and airmen, all10 theIr 70s and 80s, dtdn'tglonfy battle They rarelyspoke of their own wartimeexpenences, and when theydid, didn't brag

Unfortunately, as Gergen wrote, hecouldn't convince other people and, headded, "Ford's honeymoon was Irre-trievably shattered. Despite hIS manygood works on leaVlng the White House,he could not escape the shadows of thepast."
When Ford was a MIchigan congress-man, I had known him, chiefly thoughSOCIalevents during newspaper actlvi-tIes m Washington.But I &lso had mter-Vlewed him at least once about natIOnalaffairs Just before he became Vlce presi-dent. In common with other reporters, 1found Ford open, friendly and Wllhng toanswer any legitimate question
An aptaward forPresidentGerald FordBy Wilbur Elston
MOSt Mlchlganians, whetherthey are Repubhcans or not,WlIl applaud the declslon of theJohn F Kennedy Library
trustees m Boston to award Its annualProfiles m Courage award to fonnerpltloSldellL ~lll.ld R. Ford.
The move on Thesday of thIs weekwas made because of Ford's action mpardonmg Richard NiXon less than amonth after he hImself had taken theoath of office as President Nixon's suc-cessor
As reported at the time, Ford's actionwas widely criticized in the UmtedStates, and many commentators
believed lt was the decIsion that costFord his reelectIOn on his close raceWlth JImmy Carter 10 1976.
As the edltonal page edItor of TheDetroit News at the time, I sympathlzedWlth Ford, although like many otherpeople, I thought hIS pardon for NiXonwas a mistake.
As DaVld Gergen, who had worked torNiXon in the White House, wrote 10 hISstory in the Sunday Times, he almostdrove into a ditch when he heard thenews on a Sunday broadcast while dri-ving his car.
"But," he added m hiS story, "we knewFord to be so thoroughly honest that adeal with Nixon or with AlexanderHaIg, NiXon's chief of staff, was mcon-
Ai; I wrote at the time in The DetrolNews, President Ford and the newsmedia had hit It off well 10 one of theIrearly encounters in the Rose Garden.
" Asked about retinng PresidentNiXon's request for an mcrease 10 hl~transItion expenses, Ford said the billhad not yet arrived at his desk and sohe delayed Judgment on the issue. Inother words, he didn't leap to judgmenton that or on other issues.
Ford served in the White House only895 days, and it took a whlle for him toescape the shadow of hIS past. But Inrecent years, as Gergen P010ts out, eventhe medIa have become more compas-sionate.
Accordmg to Gergen, the revlslomsmapparently started in 1996. whenRichard Re~veii, ...ho years earher hdQwntten a devastatmg piece about Fordas Bozo the Clown, wrote an apology Inthe Amencan Hentage magazine.
The headhne on the piece was "I amsorry, Mr. President," and Reeves wenton to say that Ford "had done a betterjob than he had predicted or lmagmed"and then ended saying, "You have myrespect and thanks, Mr. President"

passenger vehIcles and big ngs could beaVOided If dnvers knew more about thephysical hmltatIons of trucks and followedthese two SImple safety tips
• Big rigs have large blind spotsPassenger car dnvers are asked to aVOidstaYing in a trucker's bhnd spots for longpenods of tIme because the truck dnverWlll not be able to see the car Bhnd spotsgenerally are directly 10 front and In backof the truck, along the traIler and cab ofthe passenger SIde, and over the dnver'sleft-hand shoulder It's best to remember- If you cannot see the truck dnver's faceIn the truck's mirrors, he/she probablycan't see you
• Trucks make Wlde turns Trucks gen-erally sWlng out a bIt because they needmore space to aVOIda curb or oncom1Ogtraffic - especially when makIng nght-hand turns Cars are encouraged to hangback and let the truck complete the turnso they don't get squeezed
Everyone can do their part to aVOIdcrashes and keep famlhes safe Let's alltry harder to slow down, be courteous andshare the road

In 1993, Congress authorized theAmerican Battle MonumentsCommission to establish a nationalmemona) to honor the men andwomen who served in umfonn duringWorld War II and the participation ofthe natlOn during the conflict. OnVeterans' Day 10 1995, PresidentClinton dedicated the site of thememorial and a ceremomal ground-breaking was conducted on Veterans'Day last year.
The memonal, which will befinanced almost entirely by pnvatecontributions, has received more than$170 milhon, more than enough tocover projected construction costs andoperating expenses Fonner Sen. BobDole and FedEx Corp. CEO and chair-man Fredenck W. Smlth have led thenatIOnal campaign, which has collect-ed money from veterans groups, CIVlCgroups, profeSSIOnal organizatIOns andmore than 1,200 schools across thecountry Public ServiceAnnouncements by actor Tom Hankshave also aided the cause.
It's a shame that all of this time andeffort has been slowed by lawswtsfrom a relatIvely small group ofdetractors with environmental andaesthetic concerns.
The U.S. Senate has yet to act onH.R 1969, however, Sen. TimHutchmson of Arkansas has intro-duced a simIlar measure. Senate pas-sage of the bill would put the memori-alan a "fast track," makmg all previ-ous deClslons regarding the memonalfinal and conclUSIve, and not subject tojudiCIal or admimstrative reVlew.
Let's hope that the World War IIMemorial m Washington is built whileour country's veterans who won thewar still have a chance to see it

On May 15, the U.S. House ofRepresentatives voted 400-15to pass a bill (H.R. 1696) thatwould end delays that have
stalled the construction of the WorldWar II Memonal to be located betweenthe Lmcoln and Washington monu-ments on the Mall in Washington,D.C We urge the U.S. Senate to followSUIt.
"More than three million World WarII veterans have died since Congressapproved a natIOnal memorial to themIn 1993, yet work has not begun," saidRep. Chris SmIth of New Jersey, theHouse Veterans' Affairs CommitteeChairman. "The deSIgn and site for thememonal have been carefully studied,conSidered and approved over a penodof more than SiX years, a longer timethan It took to Wln World War II "
DespIte more than 20 pubhc hear-ings and the endorsements of theHlstonc PreservatlOn Office of theDistrict of Columbia and the D.C.Hlstonc PreservatIOn Review Board,as well as approval from theCommiSSIOn of Fine Arts, the NationalCapital Planmng Commission, theSecreta.ry of the Interior and thePresident, cntIcs of the memorial sayIt would make the Mall too crowdedWlth monuments.
A laWSUit has even been filed by anoppOSition group claiming that nearbyelm trees need to be protected.ArchItect Fnedrich St. Florian told theAi;soclated Press that some criticseven compared his design to Nazi-Gennany architecture.

"A concern of our parentswhen we opened Barnes wasthat their (speCial educa-tIon) kids would be s¥Tegat-ed," said Banner "Weassured them that thls wasnot the case and that we hadample opportumty for ourkids to be mamstreamed •
So far, smce Barnesopened Its doors to specialeducatIOn and early chlld-hood programs mSeptember 1999, that hasnot always been the case

"We began to have some

Banner's plan IS to have25 to 30 speCial educatIOnpreschool !>tudents, two tofour at a time, rotate timespent m the SunshineStreet's classroom

Classes at Richard Elementary waged war oneach other. Classes earned points for donatingpeonies in a penny war sponsored by the school'sstudent council.
Classes lost points by collecting nickels, dimesand quarters donated by competing classes. Inthe end. the Make-A-WishFoundation of Michi-gan came out as the champion with a $1,711check presented by the student council,
Dorothy Black's first-grade and Sarah Suit'sfifth-grade classes were also winners. Their stu-dents earned pizza parties for conecting themost pennies.

In one song, small groupsof seventh-grade studentswere given a melody wnttenby Charuba and challengedto wnte verses on partIcularammal famllles fish, birdsand reptlles Other studentswrote a song about theorgAn ~y~tem and rocks.
"It's a good reVlew of thesubject matter,' saidCharuba "The lyncs have tobe pertment and they reallyhave to cover the subjectmatter"
"I thought makmg thesong was easy," saId sev-enth-grader GeorgeAtsalakls "The only hardpart was fittmg 10 all thesyllables"
Charuba, who is also amUSICIan, favors reggaemelodies when compos1OgmusIc WIth hIs students.
"It's a lot more fun for thestudents," sald Charuba
Charuba felt that musIcdrew some students into thesubject matter more thanthrough lectures and text-books
"Some of the students liketo write poetry, so this reallyappealed to them,' saidCharuba "I also had one Iudwho's a good student andkind of a tough guy, but did-n't partiCIpate much inclass He really tned tomake the lyrics fit. He wasthe most enthUSIastic abouttrns project "
Charuba has recorded thestudenta' composItions on afour-track mixing board heacquired through theTeacher TechnologyInitiative (TTD grant,known as Gov.John Engler'slaptop grant, and plans onmaklng a compact chsc to bepurchased by parents andstudents as a keepsake Heis also hoping to recordsound chps for the school'sweb site

From page 3A
Small and medIum-sIzebusmesses m the GrossePomtes need Internet datatransfer serVIces Just asmuch as the corporate bIgboys, but what seTVlces areavailable and how do theymeet the httle guys' needs?
The most common hnk tothe Internet these days ISthe 56K dIal-up seTVlce
ThIS type of seTVlce IS finefor home use, but not neces-sanly for busmess
It IS very slow by modemstandards, relymg on thetypical copper telephoneWire
It has the addItIOnal dIs-advantages of availability,you may get a busy SIgnalwhen try to call yourInternet SeTVlce PrOVIder
You can also be knockedoff-hne by dIsconnectIOn mthe mIddle of transfemngdata and have to start allover
In addItIOn, sometimesthe costs of mal-up serviceare decelVlng If there isn't alocal number to log on to,say AOL, you could wmd uppaYIng toll call rates to logon
Dial-ups are only good fordata transfer, not vOice
Most computer/technologyexperts beheve dial-upInternet seTVlce IS already admosaur and WIll go thesame way as the prehistoricreptiles
As we move up the seTVlceladder, we find DigitalSubscnber Lmes (DSL) andIntegrated SeTVlces DIgitalNetwork (ISDN)
Both DSL and ISDN alsouse standard copper hnesfor data transfer and aremuch faster than dial-up
If you haven't heard ofISDN, I'm not surpnsed
It Just never caught on,mainly because of the avaIl-ablllty of DSL
DSL can transfer datafrom 128 kilobytes per sec-ond (kbs) up to sevenmegabytes per second (mbs).

In addItlOn to tradJtlOnal breastreductIOn, the SPAIR techmque alsocan be used as a breast hft (max-opexyl and In combmatIon WIth aug-mentatIOn to remodel the breast andrestore symmetry m women undergo-109 breast reconstructIon I've alsoused the SPAIR method 10 combma-tlOn With skin-sparing mastectomies,a techmque that creates a near nor-mal appearance followmg the removalof the breast.
After performing tradItional reduc-tion surgery for a number of years, Ihave been absolutely dehghted WIththe results I've achieved USing theSPAIR procedure. One truly outstand-mg benefit I've dIscovered IS thatbecause the breast can be shaped dur-ing surgery, the final result achievesmore fullness on top of the breast.Combmed With the mimmal scarnngthat results from the SPAIR method,it's obvious that the techmque IS farsuperior to the tradItIOnal surgery.
As With any breast reductIOn proce-dure, the patlent must wear a supportbra around the clock for 4 to 6 weeksafter surgery. She also must not Jogduring that tIme and must aVOIdheavy hftmg or strenuous pushing for3 to 4 weeks. OtherWJse, there are norestrictions on a woman's activity.
While many women can benefitfrom the SPAIR method, not everyoneWill be a candidate for the procedure.In some cases, women with extremelylarge breasts may stili requITe thetraditIonal techmque, or It may benecessary to completely remove thempples and areolas so they can begrafted 1Otoa new pOSitIOnafterbreast size IS reduced.
Women aren't the only ones whocan benefit from the SPAIR tech-mque. I've also used It on malepatients with gynocemastla, orenlargement of the male breast Theresults were equally ImpreSSive.
I've always thought It was Impor-tant to be able to offer patIentsnumerous optIOns when they facesurgery or any kInd of medical treat-ment The SPAIR techmque gIveswomen another Viable optIOn - onethat results 10 a much better cosmeticoutcome and a much happier patient.
The tradItIOnal reduction mammo-plasty techmque requIres a wide,lOverted-T scar that runs around theareola and along the lower crease ofthe breast BeSides leaVing large hon-zontal and vertical scars that canappear thick and red, there can some-times be a breakdown of the skm atthe end of the flap where excess tiS-sue IS removed, as well as postopera-tive loss of breast contour The SPAIRtechmque helps to prevent theseundeSIrable condItions
The key to the.SPAIR technique ISthe "short scar" inciSIOn, which begIhsbeneath the breast and runs uptoward the areola, the darker areathat surrounds the mpple. After.

For many years plastic surgeonshave had a number of successfulmethods for reducing breast size. Butthere was a pnce to pay for the rehefpatients gamed. They often were leftWith rather unsightly scars.

Q. Mr. Hardware, I removed thecement steps leading up to myporch and discovered the blockwalls supporting my porch arecrumbling. There are a couple offist-sized holes in the block and Iwant to repair the area before Ireplace the steps. - T.M. ofRoseville.
A. T.M., your porch looks likesome water has been accumulatingbehind the top step for some time.From here, it looks like an easy fix.Of course, everything looks easier
from this side of thepaper.
First, apply someconcrete bonder to theexisting blocks andaround the holes. Thiswill give the patchingconcrete a sounder sur-face to bond to.
Then take some wiremesh, like 1I2-inchhardware cloth orchicken wire, and stuffit in the openings in theblock. Do not overdo it,just one layer wedged across theopenings IJ2-inch below the sur-face. Pack the wire mesh withsome patching cement workingfrom the center to the edges. Donot try to do the job in one coat.Concentrate on packing the edgeswith the patching cement knowingthat you will be back a second andpossibly a third time building thecement up to a smooth surface.
Apply one coat per day so eachlayer can harden. This will give thesecond coat a firm surface to bond~_.

Charlett. Seidel, a vice presidentwith Coldwell Banker ResidentialReal Estate Inc., one of the largestreal estate companies in NorthAmerica, puts all of her clientsthrough an exercise that helpsthem appreciate the importance ofa home entryway to the overallcurb appeal of their home.
"Before the seller puts up a 'ForSale' sign, I take them across thestreet, have them look at the housethen bring them up the walkway tothe front door," says Seidel. "Then,we stand at the front door for aminute or two, since a buyer willtypically wait there with the realestate agent until being let into thehouse. That's when I stress thatthe door and entryway should beclean, fresh and make a greatappearance, since the entrance isthe first thing they see when theycome up to the house.'"
As testimony to the importanceof such "first impressions," Seidelsays that roughly 60 percent of thecalls her office receives are fromprospective buyers inquiring abouta house they saw while simply dri-ving down the street.
While it's true that an attractivedoor system is just one facet of ahome's curb appeal, many realestate experts' agree that it is avery important element. So, ifyou're not satisfied with theappearance of your entryway, youmight want to consider a sureinvestment in a state-of-the-artfiberglass door system.

Entryway is keyto home's curb appeal
"Curb appeal" is a term oftenused when a house goes up for sale.But it also describes the firstimpression your home makes onfamily, friends and other visitorswhile you are living there.
Many things can contribute tocurb appeal - the landscapingaround the house, the quality ofthe paint job, and perhaps mostimportant of all, the door systemthat serves as the entryway to yourhome. .
Ifthe entryway to your home is alittle worse for the wear, you mightwant to enhance its appearance byreplacing the door system. For last-ing curb appeal, one of the bestchoices you can make is to upgradeto one of the new generation offiberglass doors.
According to Therma- Tru Corp.,the nation's leading manufacturerof residential entry door systems,fiberglass doors have been growingin popularity ever since their intro-duction in the '80s. The reason:they offer the look and feel of awood door, but without all theproblems associated with wood,such as splitting, cracking andwarping.
Fiberglass entry doors are alsorendering once-popular steel doorsobsolete: Aesthetics is one of thereasons. Steel doors, which candent and rust, tend to look shabbyover time, while fiberglass doorsmaintain their just-installedappearance for years. Fiberglassdoors also feature detailed panelsthat produce much more dramaticshadow lines than steel doors do.
What's more, some fiberglassdoors, such as Therma- Tru newSmooth-Star door, even mimic thelook of a painted wood door but ata much more affordable cost. Theyalso have another big advantageover wood doors, especially in thesedays of rising oil prices: Fiberglass

From the lender's viewpart 1
Page 8 You rHome Thursday, May 24, 2001
TheJ:e are basically three issuesthat are taken into considerationwhen you apply for a mortgage -your credit history, your financialability to repay -the mortgage. andthe value and condition.ofthe prop-erty. Each of these issues has manyaspects.
Once you have a basic under-standing of what a lender is look-ing for. you can prepare yourself forsuccess when applying or shoppingfor the best mortgage.
The first issue that we will con-sider is the value of the property.This is determined by having anindependent appraiser inspect theproperty and give a professionalopinion as to its value.
The main question that needs tobe answered is this: Does the valueof the property provide adequatesecurity for the loan? In otherwords, if you default on the mort-gage. will the lender be left owningsomething just as valuable as themoney you never paid back?
There are basically threeapproaches that an appraiser usesto determine the value of a proper-ty.
The first method is called theSales Comparison Approach.Essentially, the appraiser com-pares your property to similarproperties that ha,:,e recently soldm your area or neighborhood.
This approach carries the mostweight on the vast majority of res i-dential appraisals as it is consid-ered to be the clearest indicator ofmarket value.
In other words, if the identicalhouse next door sold last week for$450,000, your house will probablysell for $450,000. Therefore, thevalue of your house is $450,000.
The second method that anappraiser uses is called the CostApproach. This is based on theestimated cost to exactly reproduceyour house at today's prices.
Under this approach, the valueof the land, and the value of thehouse and other improvements aredetermined separately and thenadded together.
The cost approach is used mostoften when financing new con-s~ruction or unique properties. It isgIven the most weight when thereis little or no comparable salesdata.
So, if your property is too uniqueto compare with any other; or if themost recent comparable sale inyour area was a long time ago, then
your appraiser will probably usethe Cost Method to determine thevalue of your property.Additionally, the appraiser wouldgo outside of your area to find com-parable sales.
The third method used to deter-mine the value of a property iscalled the income approach. Theincome approach is primarily usedfor income producing investmentproperty.
The appraiser would generallybase his estimate of value on theincome that the property wouldproduce as an investment.
The bottom line: a mortgagelender will lend you money up to acertain percentage of the appraisedvalue of your property. This iscalled the loan to value ratio (LTV).
Although every lender has differ-ent guidelines, you can generallyexpect that the best interest rateswill be reserved for those who onlyborrow up to 80 percent of thevalue of the property. •
However, there are many loanprograms that feature higher loanto value guidelines. In these cases,rou can expect to pay mortgagemsurance or a higher interest rate.
Also, if the property is an invest-ment, the lender will not lend asmuch as if it were your primaryresidence. For instance lenderstypically require 10 to 25 percentas a down payment on investmentproperty.
Conversely, many lenders offer~ro down.programs if the propertyIS your pnmary residence.
In addition to considering theloan to value, a lender will evalu-ate the appraisal to determine the~ondition of the property. ThisISsue will be covered next week.

border at the ceiling line, and thisuse makes a lot of sense. Lazarowexplains that this is where fine oldhouses would have elaborate crownmoldings, but such niceties are leftout today, leaving rooms to lookboxy and plain. Borders do a finejob of standing in for such mold-ings.
For eye-stopping architecturalinterest, borders can also be usedin lieu of chair rails, to frame win-dows and doors, and to create "wallpanels." For extra impact, think ofusing borders in tandem. The sameborder can be used at differentheights on the wall, or you mightput two borders together. Some ofthe new extra wide borders areinteresting choices for baseboardinstallations, because they will fillin the area up to ch8ir rail heightand create a wainscot or muraleffect. .
Also think of using borders tospruce up window and lamp shadesand boring pieces of furniture.
Trompe l'Oeil, which literallymeans fool the eye, is a decoratingtechnique that dates back to thefabulous palazzos of theRenaissance, but, of course, thoseold Veronese and Roman aristo-crats had to pay through the nosefor hand-painted effects. You, onthe other handt need only go to awallpaper store or studio to select ademocratically priced "view" or"architectural add-on" for yourhome. You can have tongue-in-cheek vistas that couldn't podiblyexist outside your own window andyou can glue on architectural ele-ments that look so real you willhave to run your hands over themto tell they are paper.

With such a wealth of designs,settling on the perfect bordermight seem difficult, but Lazarowsays this isn't so.
Key motif is a clear fit for a clas-sically traditional space. An artpiece depicting a historically cor-rect Doman column will look out ofplace in a log cabin, a border with aline-up of birdhouses is a greattheme for a country family room.and a roses-and-lace motifimmedi-ately brings a Victorian room tomind.
Borders, scenic panels and artpieces can be used on paintedwalls, but Lazarow points out thatyou may prefer the way they lookwith companion wallpapers.Somehow, a subtly patterned wallcovering, such as a faux designthat echoes the beauty of marble,limestone, fabric, grass cloth orleather, creates a richer back-ground for borders or art pieces.Finding just the right companionwallpaper is easy. Wallpaper booksare set up so you see the bordersand wallpapers in design and color-coordinated groups, and there arealso photos that show the way pho-tos look on actual walls.
There are myriad of other waysto use borders to add personality to

Granite tile for the countertops is aunique and classy look with con-trasting cabinets.
• Try tile for the kitchen floor.Ceramic floor tile allows for easycleanup and an authentic look. Tileis an excellent choice for kitchenfloors because it is durable, has slip-resistant qualities and comes in avariety of colors and prices.
Easy touch-Up for the entrance:• Replace the old door with a new
model. This will spare you the costof reseizing the opening and stillgive you a fresh, updated look. Manydoor models are built to fit intoexisting woodwork, which also willsave you the cost of having toreplace the entire unit.
• Add an attractive storm door toprotect the entry door and keep heatblside during the winter and allowfresh air to come inside in the sum-mer. Choose a door with a .movablesash to allow for more flexibility.
• Install trim work. Trim the exte-rior of the door with finish carpentrysuch as columns and a crossheadpediment to extend the width of thedoor. Ask your carpenter about high-density urethane foam millwork, agreat option for high maintenancewood.
• Lighting. Outdoor lighting cango a long way to create a warm, wel-coming effect for your guests.Lighting installed above or at bothsides of the front door is an excellentoption. Be certain to hire a qualifiedelectrician to install your new fix-tures.
Finding a contractor via theInternet has become a popular trendthat is sure to stay in fashion. Notonly is it free to consumers, but it isa more time efficient and "convenient",!ay to research contractors' creden-tials.
It used to be you grew up in atight-knit community and could relyon quality referrals from friends andneighbors, but with Americansbeing more transient today, most ofthose connections have been lost.Now, people are turning to theInternet to reestablish those connec-tions as well as provide the neces-sary research to make an informeddecision.
According to ServiceMagic.com,requests for home-related referralsrun the gamut, ranging from simplehome maintenance to completehome remodeling projects. The mostcommon service request fulfilled byServiceMagic is maid service.
However, the second most popularhome service referral sought overthe Internet is for general contrac-tors and home remodelers, whichcan cost tens, and even hundreds ofthousands of dollars, according toServiceMagic-generated data. Theother most commonly requested ser-vices reported (in order of populari-ty) are for painting, handymen,plumbing, electricians, deck instal-lation, fence installation, roofingand lawn maintenance.
Design--From page 14,in creating an appealing environ-ment. Studies on color associatiollhave been conducted to learn howdifferent colors affect people.Someone's choice of color for theirhome depends on many things -trends, size of the room, lighting andchildhood influences, for example.
Red is the strongest of all.colors.Raspberry reds express excitement,high energy, warmth and vibrancy.In fact, raspberry is a stimulatingand active color that would also beappropriate for an entry hall.Warmer reds, also inviting, can pro-vide an intimate atmosphere in adining room.
Experts point out that there aremany different shades and tints ofcolors - each with a distinctive per-sonality. The experts advise thatcolor selections be based on how youfeel about a particular color. A roomfilled with bright, lively colors mayenergize one person; another personmay find the brighter hues exhaust-ing.
Suggestions for the living and din-ing rooms:
• Be bold. Paint one or two walls adeep shade of red, blue, green orolive.
• Create a mood. Contrastingthrow pillows and candles for theevening can turn a traditional roominto a visually pleasing one.
For the smaller kitchens, designerLucy Kendzior recommends tearingdown an existing wall to open up thekitchen while adding more space forcabinets and countertops.
Interior designers are a greatstarting point for homeowners want-ing to remodel or just to have a newlook. They work with you to evalu-ate your needs and communicatethese needs to the architect and thecontractor. Also, interior designershelp enhance a home environmentthrough their understanding ofdesign and space and their expertisein combining creativity with qualitydesign.
Note: When planning yourkitchen remodel, begin by dis-cussing your cabinet needs. Not onlywill cabinets be your kitchen's mostprominent feature, they'll also prob-ably take longer to obtain than anyother item.
For the too-small-for-comfortkitchen:
• Try maple. Maple cabinets arenot only pleasing to the eye, but theyalso are top notch when it comes todurability. The all-American appealof maple can be found in every pricerange. Also, maple lends a warm-glow to a kitchen--or any room in thehouse. Its smooth, close-grainedcharacteristics fit in beautifullywith any home decor.

The treatment: Applied behavioranalysis (ABA) has become themost widely used therapy. Thisintensive one-on-one approach isalso the most successful, with 50percent of kids under age 5 func-tioning normally after treatmentand 35 percent of children of allages improving significantly,according to a study from thePrinceton Child DevelopmentInstitute in New Jersey. Othertreatments - including vitaminand diet therapy and patterning, aprocess of physical manipulationsand exercises - are controversialand haven't proved as successful.Secretin, a digestive hormone thatgenerated wide publicity as a"cure" about two years ago, did notprove its worth in medical trials.

Who's effected: It is estimatedthat one child in 500 has autism ora related disorder; it's four timesmore prevalent in boys than ingirls. The numbers have skyrocket-ed in recent years - due at least inpart, experts say, to better detec-tion, not increased incidence. Inthe past, autism was commonlymisdiagnosed as mental retarda-tion (in severe cases) or attentiondeficit disorder (in milder ones).
Understanding AutismAutism comes in different forms,
but all are disorders of the brainthat disrupt development in socialinteraction and language skills,making it difficult for children torelate to others or to their environ-ment.
The symptoms are: At 18months, an autistic baby will notpoint to objects or notice theexpressions of other people. By age2 or 3, autistic children withdraweven more. Some may make repeti-tious body movements (hand flap-ping, rocking).
