ORMOND BEACH -- Developers of Tomoka Oaks Golf Village want residents to be assured what they are doing is improving golf play, not just real estate development.

The $40 million project also includes a new golf clubhouse and significant changes to the golf course. The planned village covers nearly 30 acres of the 147-acre golf course. Ryals took several steps to get existing residents on board with the project. Invitations were sent to all club members and homeowners in the community to a meeting where plans were presented.

'Not much' can be done for economy
Deputy Finance Minister Sommai Phasee yesterday conceded his ministry had limited tools to boost the economy, while shrugging off calls from the private sector for tax incentives to lift investment. Speaking at a seminar hosted by Thansettakij newspaper, he said it was unlikely the government would cut the corporate income tax to stimulate spending, but he also gave assurances that the Finance Ministry would not increase the value-added tax (VAT) from 7 per cent to 10 per cent as widely speculated. While saying, "There is no room to make a major tax cut," Sommai stated that the ministry was considering using tax and other incentives to stop the economic slow-down. Sommai said public spending accounted for 19 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP) and that even though the government runs a fiscal deficit to boost growth, it actually could not do too much.

FBI Opens Investigation into Economist Accused of Fraud
(Charleston) -- The FBI says it has opened its own investigation in a Charleston Southern University professor facing fraud charges.
Special Agent Steve Grimaldi says the probe will parallel the civil investigation into Al Parish already filed by the Securities Exchange commission.

The SEC says Parish provided false statements to his 300 investors indicating the five funds were trading profitably when they were not.
The pools allowed investors to put money in commodities and securities futures products, bonds, stocks and hard assets like expensive watches, jewelry and fine art.
