Musicians and music lovers of all ages now have a scene just for them. The Music Room, newly opened and located at 609 Oakwood Ave. in the Oakwood Square Plaza, is a live performance venue and recording studio.

We want to foster the music scene for younger people, said Dave Hallett, who said he and his wife were inspired by an all ages music caf in Oregon more than 20 years ago. If youre under 21, theres not much you can do because you cant go to a bar.

The entire Hallett family has some connection to music, and all are owners of the venue.

Dads been in a band since he was an early teen, said daughter, Kara, who plays the piano.

Siblings Tori and Sam, both recent East Aurora High School graduates, participated in the Limelite University program at Limelight Music on Main Street and each play several instruments, including the violin, mandolin, bass and acoustic guitars and even the ukulele.

Another daughter, Tina, also plays the piano, and mom, Donna, enjoys going and watching.

There was always an instrument in the house, Sam said of growing up in a musical family. We used to have shows in the backyard, Dave added.

The Music Room opened July 11 and features scheduled shows three nights a week. Thursdays are Open Mic nights, Fridays are Acoustic Nights and Saturdays are Electric Nights. The venue opens at 7 p.m., and sets are 45 minutes long.

Everyone can come and feel comfortable, Kara said.

During a recent Open Mic Night, East Aurora residents Jim and Kim Klinesmith stopped by to check it out after receiving an informational mailer.

One of the commercial construction permits issued in the second quarter was for this Pollo Tropical restaurant on Dunlawton Avenue in Port Orange.

DAYTONA BEACH The number of new home and commercial construction permits issued across Volusia County in the second quarter of the year dipped when compared to the first quarter and the same three-month period a year ago.

However, county officials are taking a wider view of building activity.

In my personal view, one quarter does not a trend make and we need to wait and see for the next quarters, said Rob Ehrhardt, Volusia Countys economic development director, during Fridays quarterly economic development briefing at Daytona Beach International Airport attended by more than 150 people.

Volusia County and its 16 cities issued 280 new single-family home construction permits in the April-through-June quarter, according to data compiled by the economic development division. Thats down 18 percent from the same period a year ago and down 19 percent from the first quarter.

Timing is one reason for the dip, builders said. Permits are usually issued two to three months after a sales contract is signed. Since sales cooled late in the first quarter due to severe bad weather in the Midwest and Northeast, second quarter permit activity took a slight hit.

Residential permit activity for the first half of the year, however, is better than it was a year ago.

There were 628 home construction permits issued January through June. Thats up almost 8 percent from the 582 permits issued in the first six months of 2013. Its also the highest level for the first half of any year since 2008 when 666 permits were issued.

We are not seeing a flattening out, just the opposite. Our sales are up, said Jim Mather, vice president of Paytas Homes in Port Orange.

The homebuilder has sold 58 homes through July, mostly in its Promenade subdivision in New Smyrna Beach. The company sold 65 in all of last year.

Pond Stars Premieres Friday, September 5, at 10 PM ET/PT on Nat Geo WILD

(WASHINGTON, D.C. - AUGUST 6, 2014) In today's fast paced, electronically dependent world it's harder than ever to connect with nature on a daily basis. That's where the Pond Stars step in, redecorating yards one home at a time to create an escape from everyday life and to connect with wildlife right outside the door.

Pond Stars follows Chicago-based water feature specialists at Aquascape, Inc. (www.aquascapeinc.com) as they combine technology with natural design principles to create beautiful, low maintenance water features that transform landscapes into retreats. The team tackles everything from decorative fountains to entire backyard remodels to major overhauls on ponds gone wrong.

Nat Geo WILD cameras follow every projectst a time. the dynamic trio create aquatic escapes one bacyard from the initial concept to the finished landscape. Ponds are dug, rocks are selected, wildlife is carefully chosen, and the plants and flowers are installed, all while highlighting the science of water features and how they invigorate the surrounding ecosystem. The team negotiates electrical wiring, thousand-pound boulders, and out-dated technology for a zoo habitat project. They install a 30-foot pond complete with underwater camera for a football team owner, and replicate a brown trout stream in a client's backyard. All in a day's work for the Pond Stars.
