Non-smoking
VA clean air act snuffs out smokers
Smoking prohibited in most public places
By Tammy Batcha
The Sherando Times
For most of its history dating to colonial times, tobacco was Virginia’s premier
crop and economic staple.
Yet this year, strict new policies on lighting up where
food and drink are sold
were enacted by lawmakers in Richmond. Smoking in many public places,
including most Virginia
restaurants is now prohibited by the Virginia Indoor
Clean Air Act that became
effective December 1, 2009.
Governor Kaine had been
working for years for a total
ban on smoking in all restaurants, but compromised
with lawmakers in the bill
that passed and he signed
into law on March 9, 2009.
The ban does permit smoking in private clubs and in
places that have separately
ventilated and enclosed
smoking rooms. Some lo-

non-smoking facility that it
could have had a negative
impact on the business. “We
have regulars that come in
here seven days a week that
like to smoke. This move allows them to continue to do
so.”
On Monday evening, the
day before the code was enforced, New Town Tavern
in Stephens City was experiencing wall-to-wall people in the bar. Smokers were
taking advantage of that one
last time to light up. Christopher Bennett, general
manager at the tavern, says
there may be a small percentage of patrons who may
not come back due to the
ban. He says that although
they don’t have the capacity
to allow smoking within the
eatery, they have designated
a place for smokers who still
want their nicotine fix. They
will have a cigarette receptacle placed outside of the
recently closed Backstage
Video. This way he says, the

smoke will not impact customers coming and leaving
the restaurant.
A restaurant proprietor is
required to post signs advising that smoking is not
permitted, and to remove
all ashtrays from non-smoking areas. The Act does not
apply to “open air” outdoor
areas of public restaurants.
Charlie Zarou, owner of
IJ Canns at Creekside in
Kernstown, has patio access
for customers and he will
continue to allow patrons
to smoke there but customers can no longer smoke in
the bar area which he had
allowed since opening the
restaurant. Mr. Zarou felt
that it wouldn’t have much
of an impact on his business. “After all, most of us
were fully aware that this
was coming”, he said.
Violations of the Virginia
Indoor Clean Air Act by the
proprietor of a restaurant
or by a patron are punishable by a civil fine of not
more than $25 for each violation. According to Richmond attorney, Dave Douthit, a restaurant proprietor
can avoid liability if he has
properly posted signs, if he
refuses to seat or serve a patron who violates the ban,
asks the patron to cease
violating the ban, and if a
patron refuses to cease after
the initial warning, asks the
patron to leave the restau-
rant.
In addition to banning
smoking in public restaurants, the Virginia Indoor
Clean Air Act bans smoking
in many other public spaces, such as public schools,
school buses, elevators, indoor service lines, and indoor cashier lines. The Act
also bans smoking in hospital emergency rooms and
in public health department
buildings.

Smithsonian
National Zoo Loses Old Arapaima Fish
Two adult arapaima fish have
died in the Amazonia exhibit at
the Smithsonian’s National Zoo.
The first fish died Thursday,
Nov. 19, and a second fish was
found dead Friday, Nov. 27. The
tank is being closely monitored
by Zoo staff as a third adult is
in poor health and is currently
being treated with antibiotics.
Staff have observed a slight improvement but remain guarded
about the fish’s prognosis. A
fourth arapaima, an adolescent,
appears healthy, but was started
on antibiotics as a preventative
measure. The tank is also home
to catfish and pacus, which all
appear to be in good health.
The gross necropsies (animal
autopsy) conducted immediately after the animal deaths were
not conclusive in establishing
the cause of death, but a bacterial infection is suspected. Additional tests, including cultures
and microscopic evaluations,
are pending and should provide
additional information. Staff
confirmed that there were no
apparent malfunctions with the
aquatic equipment. The fish have
lived in the Amazonia exhibit at
the Zoo since 1993. Animal-care
staff approximate their age at 17
years, which is comparable to

how long old-aged arapaima live
in captivity.
This species of fish is one of
the largest freshwater fish in the
world and found in the Amazon and Orinoco Basin in South
America. Arapaima typically
grow between six to seven feet
in length and have notable large
scales. The International Union
for Conservation of Nature last
assessed the arapaima population in 1996 and concluded
there was insufficient data to
make a determination. For more
information about the fish, visit
http://nationalzoo.si.edu/Animals/Amazonia/Exhibit.
Catfish Hatch at Smithsonian’s National Zoo
One of the Smithsonian’s National Zoo’s best camouflaged
creatures came out of its hiding place to spawn. In the early
morning on Nov. 12, the Zoo’s
Amazonia exhibit welcomed a
group of twig catfish (Farlowella vittata) hatchlings. This is
the third time this species has
produced young at the Zoo.
About a week earlier, the female laid a single layer of 30
to 60 transparent eggs on the
glass of the animals’ aquarium. The male then assumed
all responsibility for guarding
the eggs. By day three or four,
the embryos within were visible and moving. Twig catfish
typically develop within six to
12 days of laying, depending
upon aquarium conditions.
As the fry hatch, males continue to watch over and guard
them. These young are difficult to raise because they need
a constant supply of their food
of choice—algae—in order to
grow and mature. The fry join
their parents and eight other
adult catfish in the Zoo’s collection. Only the non-breeding adults are on public display at a tank in Amazonia’s
field station exhibit.
Twig catfish are native to the

List compiled by Tammy
Batcha
The Sherando Times
The holidays are a favorite time of year for many
people. This cheery season
is filled with parties and
events that bring the spirit
of the season out in everyone. As a part of these festivities there are some wonderful drinks that you can
serve that fit the holiday
theme perfectly. Traditional warm drinks are a great
place to start and we cannot forget the wonders of
eggnog (a drink that should
be on everyone’s Christmas
list). Beyond those Christmas classics, the drinks listed below make great additions to any party or casual
holiday gathering. Happy
Holidays!
Christmas Jones
This sweet highball drink
begins with a blend of
strawberries, pineapple and
vodka and is topped with
lemon-lime soda for a refreshing holiday cocktail.
It’s topped with a mint garnish that adds a little cheer
to the final presentation and
is a great all-around holiday
drink for two.
Ingredients:
4 fresh strawberries
1 part vodka
2 tsp superfine sugar
5 oz pineapple juice

mint sprigs for garnish
Preparation:
1. In a blender, whiz the

rum base that is enhanced
by the flavors of red wine
and tea. The recipe is for 27
servings, making it a great
holiday party punch.
Ingredients:
750 mL bottle dark rum
750 mL bottle dry red wine
3 cups strong tea
1 lb superfine sugar
juice of 1 large orange
juice of 1 lemon
Preparation:
1. Heat, but do not allow
to boil, the wine, tea, lemon and orange juices in a
saucepan or chafing dish.
2. Pour the heated mix into
a heat proof punch bowl.
3. Place as much sugar as
possible into a large ladle
and any excess sugar into
the punch bowl.
4. Saturate the sugar in the
ladle with rum.
5. Ignite the rum and sugar
in the ladle and pour it while
still aflame into the punch.
6. Stir well and extinguish
the flames.
7. Pour the remainder of the
rum into the punch.
8. Stir well.
9. Serve in white wine glasses.
Poinsettia
Champagne and cranberries. These two holiday essentials combine in one elegant drink that is perfect for
celebrations and intimate
dining affairs.
Ingredients:
1/2 oz Cointreau or triple
sec
Champagne
3 oz cranberry juice
Preparation:
1. Chill all of the ingredients
beforehand.
2. Pour the Cointreau and
cranberry juice into a chilled
Champagne flute.
3. Stir well.
4. Top with Champagne.
White Christmas
A White Christmas is a
nice alternative to mix up
for guests who are not extremely fond of Eggnog.
It’s a nice introduction to
the distinct taste that is
disguised by the flavors
of chocolate liqueur and
Southern Comfort. With
this cocktail it’s best to use
a well-chilled eggnog and, if
you want you can also add
a few ice cubes to cool and
water it down just a little.
Ingredients:
4 oz eggnog
1/2 oz white chocolate liqueur
1 oz Southern Comfort

Camp Salahi
From ‘Reality TV’ fluff to a REAL state security scandal
Local socialite couple’s state dinner foray focuses national media attention on Warren County
By Dan McDermott
and Roger Bianchini
The Sherando Times
[Note: Tareq Salahi has declined
to speak with us on the record.]
Tuesday, November 24 should
have been a night about the United States and India, the latter a
nuclear power of 1.1 billion people and the most populous democracy in the world. President
Obama’s first White House State
Dinner in honor of Indian Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh was a
glitzy affair and the hottest ticket
in town.
In attendance were two Linden, VA residents. Tareq Salahi,
famous for a long-running feud
with his mother over control
of the family’s Hume, VA Oasis
Winery and his wife Michaele,
who is set to be the star of next
year’s Real Housewives of Washington, DC on the Bravo cable
network and NBC-owned stations.
The big news story following
the state dinner should have been
about solidifying U.S. ties with a
major player on the Asian subcontinent.
But that was not to be.
Early on Thanksgiving Day,
two Washington Post reporters
dropped a bombshell. Amy Argetsinger and Roxanne Roberts
wrote in their column The Reliable Source that the Salahis were
not on the guest list and that they
had left after cocktails since they
had no seat.
Immediately our Blackberries
began ringing.
Reporters from across the country started Googling Tareq and

Michaele Salahi and found the
only recent news stories about
them prior to the state dinner
were in Warren County Report
and The Sherando Times. We
had exclusively reported that the
entire Real Housewives cast had
taped at Oasis Winery Nov. 7th.
Since our papers had been the
only ones to have recently covered
the Salahis we were swamped with
interview requests. The national
media arrived in force within
hours. We were interviewed by
too many outlets to count including D.C. TV stations, the Washington Post reporters who broke
the story and on Good Morning
America and Fox News Channel.
A big question a lot of folks were
asking is were we surprised?
No. – Gov. Tim Kaine, who appointed Tareq Salahi to a state
tourism board, said it best in noting that if someone had told him
that a Virginia couple had crashed
a White House state dinner and
he had to guess who, out of 6.5
million Virginians he would have
guessed Tareq and Michaele.
Another prominent question
– how was the couple viewed
in their current home County
of Warren, and the Northern
Shenandoah Valley region where
the family’s winery and vineyard
business is located?
Talk to friends of the couple and
Tareq might be described as the
polo-playing prince and international good-will ambassador of
Oasis Vineyard.
Talk to others, including current staff at the winery and contemporaries of Tareq’s parents,
Dirgham and Corinne Salahi, and
the view is more likely be of a dilettante couple of name-dropping,
jet-set want-to-be’s, and bankrupters of the family business.
Another big question everyone
was asking was whether the couple would be pursued by authorities. After all, the Salahis had broken state security surrounding
the President of the United States
at a time of high international
tension.
We answered that question
at noon on Friday Nov. 27, reporting that U.S. Secret Service
agents were at Oasis Winery less
than one hour earlier looking
for Tareq and Michaele Salahi to
question them about their uninvited appearance at the White
House.
According to Oasis Winery
manager Diane Weiss, two SUV’s
were waiting near the entrance
gate when Weiss arrived to open
the winery at about 11 a.m. for
tastings.
Weiss said one SUV was at the
entrance and the other was further up the road.
When Weiss arrived, two agents
– one male and one female – said
they wished to speak with Tareq
and Michaele Salahi. Weiss said
she told the agents that they did
not live there and hadn’t since
2006. The agents asked why they
had a mailbox there. Weiss explained that it is an ongoing issue and that they do receive mail
there and list Oasis Winery as
their home address on their driver’s license, but actually reside in
a house in Linden.
Weiss said the agents were
pleasant but in a hurry. “We are
not here to arrest the Salahi’s
today. It is imperative that we
speak with them. If they do not
sit down with us and talk we will
take whatever action necessary,”
Weiss quoted the male agent as
saying.
Weiss said the agents spoke
with Corinne Salahi, Tareq’s
mother, before leaving.
‘Concerned and embarrassed’
A few hours later, Secret Service
Director Mark Sullivan issued the
following statement:
“The Secret Service is deeply
concerned and embarrassed by
the circumstances surrounding
the State Dinner on Tuesday, November 24.
“The preliminary findings of
our internal investigation have
determined established protocols
were not followed at an initial
checkpoint, verifying that two individuals were on the guest list.
“Although these individuals
went through magnetometers
and other levels of screening,
they should have been prohibited
from entering the event entirely.
That failing is ours.
“The Secret Service safely processed more than 1.2 million visitors last year to the White House
Co-writer Roger Bianchini of Warren County Report
is interviewed by News 4 at the Linden, VA home of
Michaele and Tareq Salahi
complex. In the last several years,
the agency has successfully protected more than 10,000 sites for
the President, Vice President and
other Secret Service protectees,
screening more than 7 million
people through magnetometers
at campaign related events, with
more than 1 million during the
Inauguration alone.
Even with these successes, we
need to be right 100% of the time.
While we have protocols in place
to address these situations, we
must ensure that they are followed each and every time.
As our investigation continues,
appropriate measures have been
taken to ensure this is not repeated.
The men and women of the U.S.
Secret Service are committed to
providing the highest level of security for those we are charged to
protect, and we will do whatever
is necessary to accomplish this
mission.”
Limo, dog but no Tareq or Michaele
On Saturday Nov. 28, a Salahi
neighbor told us news reporters
and photographers from all over
the country – and a few feds in
unmarked SUVs – had steadily
streamed past the Salahi home
since Thanksgiving.
The couple’s white stretch limo
was parked in the driveway of the
house and a dog, presumably Michaele’s doberman Rio, could be
heard barking and moving inside
the home. A sign near the front
door was posted that said “Hi
Dana, Thanks for watching the
dog. See you after weekend.”
Warren County Sheriff Daniel
McEathron said his office had not
received any complaints about
the couple’s dog but that his office planned to make contact to
check on the animal’s welfare.
Tasha Smelser, who has worked
at the Salahi family’s Oasis Winery off and on since 2005, described Rio as “very sweet and
gentle.”
“I watched him for a week in
2005 when Tareq and Michael
went on vacation. If they go to
jail I hope I get to keep him,” she
said.
The Salahis live on the normally quiet Scenic Overlook Dr., a
pavement and gravel road in the
5-home Mosby Estates subdivision near Linden, in eastern Warren County about 65 miles west
of Washington, D.C.
Pausing for a moment while riding on horseback past the Salahis
house, homeowners association
president Travis Frantz, who has
battled his controversial neighbors for years over unpaid association dues, said he hopes the
Salahi’s are “not in this community much longer.” Frantz said he
has been visited by sheriff ’s deputies a few times since he bought
his home in 2006 looking to serve
papers on the Salahis but said he
had not been contacted by the
December 2-8, 2009 • The Sherando Times • Page 11
Secret Service.
Frantz said he nor his wife had
seen the Salahis since Michaele
was spotted at the mailbox with
her Audi on Wednesday, the day
before the state dinner scandal
broke.
We learned that the Salahis returned to their home Saturday
night, Nov. 28.
Abusive, angry calls
On Sunday, Nov. 29 Diane
Weiss told us that Oasis Winery
had been getting some disturbing
calls.
Weiss, who has worked at Oasis
Winery since 2007, said the callers are dialing the wrong number.
“If they want to vent to Tareq
and Michaele, they need to call
America’s Polo Cup. Tareq and
Michaele have no affiliation with
Oasis anymore,” she said.
Weiss said the winery had received about 7 abusive calls in the
past few days. “Most are just nuisance calls. One said ‘You are terrorists who need to be removed
from face of earth,’” she said.
Weiss said she has had to unplug the phones for periods of
time and has plugged them back
in periodically to check messages.
“Tareq and Michaele have not
lived here since 2006. In Feb.
2008 the courts removed them
from any affiliation with Oasis
Winery,” she said.
Weiss said she hasn’t called police since the calls aren’t clearly
threatening. “I know these are
angry people. I understand that.
But they don’t need to call us. I
just don’t want some crackpot
coming up here thinking Tareq
and Michaele are part of Oasis
Winery anymore. They don’t live
here or work here or have anything to do with us,” she said.
Weiss said she planned to contact authorities if the calls get
more threatening.
For now, Weiss said, she hopes
to see more customers in to taste
wine and fewer reporters.
Oasis Winery remains open for
business on the weekends and is
controlled by Corinne. That said,
Tareq and Corinne have competing websites. Corinne controls
http://oasiswines.net while Tareq
has http://www.oasiswine.com.
Interestingly, Tareq’s site claims
he founded Oasis. The winery
was founded in 1977 when Tareq
was nine.
Black Caucus
Later Sunday, Nov. 29, our
friends at Fox 5 in Washington
reported that Tareq and Michaele also crashed the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s
annual awards dinner in September. Multiple sources told Fox 5’s
Will Thomas the couple snuck in
through a bus boy entrance and
were told to leave when they were
caught by an official.
During a Dec. 1 Legislative Report to the Warren County Board
of Supervisors, 18th District Virginia State Delegate Clifford L.
“Clay” Athey joked that Tareq
and Michaele Salahi had attended a past re-election fundraiser of
his, but that he was not sure they
had been invited guests then either.
Salahi’s leave their home
Two satellite vans, SUVs and
cars filled with national, regional
and local news reporters kept
watch over the Salahi home again
Monday, Nov. 30.
CBS News got a big scoop when
they taped the Salahi’s white Audi
with temporary tags.
The Warren County Sheriff ’s
Office sent two deputies to escort
the couple out.
Crews from ABC, NBC 4, The
Washington Post, Time Life were
also at the home.
The Melting Pot, a 5-star Google
rated pizza joint in Front Royal
brought 5 pizzas up to the Salahis
house to feed the rain-soaked reporters.
It was a hit. CBS went crazy.
New York Post photographer Bill
Farrington looked us squarely in
the eye and said, “ Bro, I don’t
normally eat pizza outside of
New York. But that was some
good pizza.”
Oasis chained
that evening at Oasis Winery in
Hume, VA, Oasis tasting manager Diane Weiss said that she and
winery owner Corinne Salahi had
no knowledge of any such plans.
Weiss said Mrs. Salahi planned to
chain the entrance gate shut for
the evening.
Earlier Tuesday, Tareq and
Michaele were escorted to their
Linden, VA home by two Warren
County sheriff ’s office vehicles,
while two other sheriff ’s cruisers stood guard on nearby John
Marshall Highway. About 6pm,
Michaele left the home in a black
chauffeur-driven Town Car, presumably the same Lincoln that
shuttled the Salahi’s to and from
their softball interview with Today’s Matt Lauer that morning.
Michaele arrived at a Starbucks on Rt. 234 in Manassas,
VA around 6:45pm where she
greeted friends who, along with
young men who said they work
at Starbucks, proceeded to block
reporters and photographers
from getting close to the coffee
shop. Michaele’s black-suited
Camp Salahi
driver went into Starbucks to get
her a drink. A Prince William
County Police officer arrived
shortly thereafter and Michaele
left for destinations unknown after speeding through a red light
out of view of the officer.
As of 10 p.m., from behind a
chained entrance gate at Oasis
Winery, it appeared that there
was no party and that Corinne
and her husband Dirgham Salahi
had settled in for the night.
Early Tuesday, Michaele Salahi
was adamant she was not being
paid to appear on NBC’s The Today Show. However, a source very
close to Michaele who spoke on
the condition they not be named,
said that Michaele, but not Tareq
was being paid an appearance fee
for her participation in the Real
Housewives of Washington, DC.
The show is slated to air next year
on the Bravo Network and on

Christmas brunch is a holiday tradition at our house, and eggs are always
the star of the show. Year after year,
eggs have been my choice for a
healthy and inexpensive way to feed a
crowd. My Oven-Baked Omelet
recipe is quick and easy to make, and
is a crowd-pleaser for breakfast,
brunch or a light supper.
Whenever a recipe calls for eggs, I
like to use the best. Eggland’s Best
Eggs have a superior taste and
enhance the quality of my omelets.
Recently, Eggland’s Best announced it
had improved the nutritional profile of
its award-winning eggs. Eggland’s
Best eggs now contain four times
more vitamin D and more than three
times the level of Omega 3 per serving
as compared to ordinary eggs. They
also contain higher levels of vitamins
B2, B12 and E, plus have 25 percent
less saturated fat and 19 percent less
cholesterol than ordinary eggs. This
was all accomplished without sacrificing taste or raising prices.
This Oven-Baked Omelet recipe is
an easy, creative way to prepare and
serve a buffet-style breakfast or
brunch for a crowd. I love providing
my guests with their choice of different types of pre-cooked meats, diced
vegetables and a variety of cheeses to
personalize their omelets. The savory
tomato topping and the ingredient
selections can be pre-cooked the day
before, refrigerated and re-heated to
save time.
Using Eggland’s Best Eggs guarantees that your Oven-Baked Omelets
will be both nutritious and delicious,
and that your holiday recipes will be a
success!
