Mr. Terry Owens, Principal of Bell Elementary School has retired. His last official day is June 30th, however, he has accumulated vacation time over the years and so March 31st was his final day in'the school. He has been in education for 35 years and has been the principal at Bell Elementary School for the past nine years. He is extremely proud of all the accomplishments the school.. has. made over the years and is happy to say they have been an "A" school for five of the past six years. Mr. Owens came to Gilchrist County from Brooksville, where he was raised. During his 14 years in education there he coached football, baseball and track.

Leslie Smith, Director of the North .Florida Rotary Youth Camp, Inc. came by to update our local Ro- tary Club on how this camp has grown, how it affects the lives of the families who come to the camp, and changes they hope to make in the future. The North Florida Rotary Youth Camp, Inc. was initiated by the Tallahassee Northside Rotary Club to provide opportu- nities for physically challenged youth to experience the freedom of an outdoor experience. The camp is intended for any child with any physical limitation, which would make it difficult or impossible to participate at other camps. Camp lets children experience swimming, campfire programs, fishing, archery, story telling and skits, first aid, arts and crafts; sports and games, nature study and conservation, and awards. While at camp children will make new friends and develop new skills, they will obtain more independence and parents have found the camp greatly improves self esteem. Leslie explained that children with 'physical limitations need extra care at home and in several instances they come from fami- lies with one parent to provide for all their needs. This camp allows these children an op- portunity that most parents are unable to provide and also gives the parents a much deserved va- cation. She shared a story of one child who had severe physical limitations who came to camp. When his mother picked him up she told Leslie how much she missed her son and was anxious to see him. The mother got to. see the camp counselors give her son good bye hugs and they told her'son they would see him again next summer. When she left with her son she had to pull off the road after a few minutes because she was crying so much. She later called Leslie and told her that she had never seen her On Monday, March 27, 2006 the Trenton Rotary Club was pleased to welcome guest speaker Leslie Smith, Director of the North Florida Rotary Youth Camp, Inc. along with Drew Dees who had attended camp this past summer. Drew said his favorite thing to do at camp was swimming and is looking forward to going back to camp this next summer. Shown from left are Jo Buckles, Assistant District Governor of Rotary; Chris and Samantha Worley, Drew Dees, Leslie Smith,. and Todd Gray, President of the Trenton Rotary Club. (Photo by Anna Wild) son so happy as that afternoon. She thanked Leslie for every- thing the camp had done for her and her son. This will be the 12th summer camp made available and Leslie has been at the camp since its inception. Right now they offer one 10-day session each summer and they have beds for 40 camp- >ers, last year they had space for only 30 campers. But they still find they have more need that they are able to fill, the hope is to be able to offer two camping sessions for seven days each and also upgrade the bathroom facilities. This camp was previ- ously a church camp which still needs additional renovations. Funding of the North Florida Rotary Youth Camp, inc. is pro- vided by the sponsoring Rotary' Clubs, Rotarians, and Friends of the Camp. Any person, group, or company may co-sponsor a camper. No campers are charged, however the actual cost per camper is approximately $1,000. Rotary Youth Camp, Inc. is a private, non-profit orga- nization and all donations are tax deductible. Rotary Youth Camp, Inc. does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, or sex. To learn more please contact Leslie Smith at 850-383-1559 or visit their website at www.nfryc.org.

These property owners were against the approval of the application to further excavate the property. . The property\ owners against the application explained that the traffic in\ ol% ing large dump trucks passing through a single. lane road easement has caused some problems for the residents that live in' the area, the additional obstruction of the small roadwaN along with the rutting of the road, plus the dust.

Reuters wrote that what Stovall found was that, on average, the 'second and third quarters of an administration's second year produced the worst returns of any other. .With the second and third quarters of George Bush's second term just ahead, Stovall's implicit warning was that investors who do not stay out of market over the next six months on Wall Street could regret it. 'Sorry, but statements such as those are complete and utter nonsense. Yes, it is necessary to utilize historical financial data as you try to ascertain a specific investment's future potential. "However, to try and tie prior world events, .or prior administrations, or even prior market aberrations,' to future investment performance, on a macro scale is. simply asserting once again that statistical data can be manipulated so as to yield ludicrous results that are mathematically correct. Meanwhile. Sonic continues to serve up some tasty morsels as well as some tasty financial, data. Nov. there is a correlation that makes sense. For its 2005 fiscal year, ending on August 31, Sonic reported that, its net, income rose 20 percent to $75,4 million. On a dilUted per share basis that came out to be $1.21 per share, as compared with $1.02 the previous year. Total revenue increased 16 percent to $623.1 million. Skipping ahead to the second quarter of fiscal year 2006 that ended Feb. 28, net income was 22 cents per diluted share, a 22 percent increase over the 18 cents of a year ago, with revenue increasing 12 percent to $148.9 million. So, given that the company's past efforts appear solid, the next step would be to look at the intrinsic value of Sonic's shares. Using a discounted earnings approach, with an earnings growth rate of 15.02 percent. and an 11 percent discount rate (long-term return of the S&P 500) for the first 10 years, yields an intrinsic value of $46.61. Moving to a more conservative discounted free cash flow model, with the same earnings growth rate and an. average cost of capital of 7 percent, yields an intrinsic value of $43 per share. When I talked about the company a year ago, the shares were trading at $34.19. In the ensuing period, waning interest on the part of the Street sent them to a low of $27.35 on Sept. 30. However, the shares have recovered nicely since then and are currently trading at about $34.64. Furthermore, the trailing twelve month multiple, or P/E, has declined to 27 from 30 a By Cindy Jo A The signs of spring are showing up all around Gilchrist County. Azaleas, wisterias, and phlox are all coloring our landscape beautifully these days. A sure sign of spring at the Journal Office comes in the form of an annual visit from Mr. Lomer Rogers. Mr. Lomer brings us a large: bag of homegrown sweet onions each year just like clockwork. Let me tell you these onions are some kinda fine. In fact, I would put these sweet onions up against any of the famous Vidalia Onions, which are grown :in Vidalia, Georgia.. Mr. Lomer has grown onions for the past 20 years in his garden on the Shady Grove road' in the Waccasassa Flats area of the county. He planted 1,200 onion plants, the first part obf December and they are now ready for .harvest. Mr. Lonmer said. you can tell when the onions are ready to pull when their topS fall o% er. I'm sure he. spends countless hours tending' his onion patch; this fact is evident in the flavor and size of the final product. He also plants sweet corn, okra, squash, acre peas, black eNe peas, and a few tomatoes in his spring garden. 'John and I joke about liking a few yellow squash with our sweet onions. Onions and squash are a simple quick dish to make. First peali and cut two large sweet onions in half then slice each half into 1/2 inch slices. Next, wash and trim off' ends of five small yellow squash. Then slice the squash into 1/4 inch or so slices. Melt' about two tablespoons for butter and about one tablespoon of oli e oil into cast iron fr ing pan. Once hot, toss in onions, squash, and then add salt, pepper and MNlcCormnick seasoning salt to taste. Just stir- fr) onions. and squash 'oer medium high heat ..until -jtust barely tender. You may cook onions and squash longer if you year ago. My current earnings 'estimate for Sonic is $1.31 for the current' fiscal year and. $1.51 for FY 2007. If my earnings projections are correct, and assuming the P/ E remains at 27, you should see an annualized investment gain of about 4 percent at the end of 6 months, or a gain of about a dollar per share. At the end of 18 months, the shares should be trading at about $41 per share for an annualized compounded return of 11.8 percent per year.

The Vidalia is a major cash crop in Georgia bringing in over 80 million dollars annually. This year as in the past couple of years some 14,000 acres have been planted in onions. To kick off the'onion harvest, the City of Vidalia, Georgia will be holding their 29th 'Annual Vidalia Onion' Festival from April 26 through April 30. Onions should be stored in a well % entilated, dry place. Don't store them in piles, single layers ensure longer life. Old clean panty hose 'are an excellent place to keep them. Just slide an onion in and tie a knot. Slide another onion in and tie a knot etc. The following is one of my favorite onion recipes. It's sort of rich so make slices small.

Unfortunately there will be no involvement from vendors this year and our input has been minimized to a "goodie with.odur advertisement." Our county is headed in the wrong direction in relation to locations. We owe more to our children than this! Sincerel., Joanna Buckles Administrator/Mom A Letter To i The Editor. - It's obvious that Mr. Alfred Wright Padova got the mistaken impression from reading the Gilchrist County Journal that we are .against hunting at the WVaccosassa Plantation. On the contrary, we love living where there's enough open 'space. to permit hunting and 'shooting. We've sighted in everything from assault rifles to handguns on my property. :When I .was in the 25th Infantry Division, regardless of what else was going on, we had to qualify on the firing range once a year. It makes sense to practice. If an army from some other part of the world comes here to impose their system of government on us, I'll happily join the insurgency alongside the people of Gilchrist County to discourage the occupation force .from their foolishness. And I'll be thankful my neighbors can shoot straight. I'm in favor of the "good ole country life." That's not the issue here. What we have a problem with is a BUSINESS v hose purpose is to bring people into our neighborhood to make a lot of noise. We really don't care if people with more dollars than sense come to the plantation to shoot confused, exotic animals and farm-raised quail. What' we DO .object to is the country-club pastime of "sporting clays" that can make our days sound like a Swar zone. There's no season for it it's allowed to go on seven days a week, all year round, just across the pasture. Maybe Mr. Padova u\ould welcome a. loud, shooting- business-for-the-rich in his neighborhood. We don't like it'. And we also don't like people %%ho make personal insults %without a' clue who they're talking about t'Gilchrist County lost proud Americans like my family and got families like yours in return.") And we don't care for people who make vague, bullying-threats ("...we will be mno ing back. Beware because I don't like cry babies like you.") But underneath the bluster, I suspect that Mr. Padova and I have a lot in common. .We both like \ild places. We've both spent a lot of time in the Everglades. We. both like trees he's a. professional arborist, I'm an amateur. And we'd both. like to, keep Gilchrist County from becoming part of the paved Florida megalopolis. When he returns from Wyoming, I will show him a big stretch of what was recently unique, prime natural habitat for turkey,, coyote, fox,. bobcat, - deer, rabbit, and -so forth that the plantation has slashed, bulldozed and burned. Three years ago February, a panther came through here. It's not likely that'll- happen again. It brought tears to my eyes to see the devastation. Like he says, I'm a crybaby. I am curious to see what Mr. Padova's eyes will look like when he ,sees that part of his old stomping grounds. Frank Cunningham The Crown That Does Not Fade Away (Kent Heaton) These are great days in "Gator Nation." The University of Florida won its first National Basketball championship and as a person of the "Orange & Blue", pride (the good kind) runs deep. There will be speeches, awards, parades and a feeling of euphoria for many days to' come in Gainesville, Florida. Vendors will sell 'wares touting the accomplishment, placards will be hung establishing the victory and the National Championship trophy will be placed in a monument of glass so that all may come and gaze upon its grand edifice. And then time will continue on. These days remind me of another time. What was the year Florida won the National Championship in football? No doubt many will remember but not as many as used to. It seems to have faded into more and more obscurity in our minds. There are no more parades for that victory or speeches given. The trophy is also encased in a monument of glass and many walk by to note the date and the time and for some to remember they were in Elementary school at the time. Time does that to trophies. They have to be dusted, cleaned, polished and protected. Over time the euphoria fades into a distant memory shared only by old men and women who remember those days long ago. Paul used sports as a point of lesson in his letter to Corinth. "Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win. Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable" (1 Corinthians 9:24-25). The prize in the Roman times was a garland or civic wreath "made of olive, pine, apple, laurel, or parsley that would soon lose its beauty and fade; of course, it could be of little value" (Albert Barnes). How fleeting these crowns became. The crown of righteousness is given to those who eagerly wait for it and look for it (2 Timothy 4:8) and this crown will not fade away. Peter declares in 1 Peter 1:3,4 "Blessed be the God and Father of, our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you." Our hope is not in a 'crown that fades away but one that is eternal. It will not perish. It cannot be defiled. The joy of our eternal reward is the euphoria received in death, as we awaken to the face of God, will never end. The crown of life bestows upon us the joy of salvation, '"joy inexpressible and full of glory" (1 Peter 1:8). "I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you" (John 16:22). "Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift" (2 Corinthians 9:15). "But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the' knowledge of Him in every place" (2 Corinthians 2:14). The rewards of men fade and collect dust. The trophy will be placed in a secure setting to keep it from thieves. Our hearts turn to the reward that never fades. "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:19-21).

Assembly Of Fine Artists News To Assembly of Fine Artists and interested persons in the arts, business persons, retired, and senior citizens: Your opinion is vital about the opportunity offered to pro- mote and use the old Cross City historic railway depot by Nature Coast .Greenways and Trails offered to me, president of the non-profit Assembly of Fine .Artists. As members and potential members, this is a large time consuming, energetic and financial undertaking and will require the help and involve- ment of many. In my opinion it is a worth- while cause and a great op- portunity if everyone will work together on this venture and realize up front that anything %we undertake to do must first be sanctioned by the Nature Coast Greenways and Trails. This should not be a problem as long as all of those %who %\ill be involved realize that this mission is not a business run as w e would run our own business. I'm aware that artists don't take lightly to any form of con- trol. In other words this will be a blending of private sector vs. Nature Coast Greenwvays and Trails, our private sector as determined by the Florida Statutes of Non-Profit operation and filing. The United States was formed for the right for individuality. The meaning of the word "happiness" in 1776 when the constitution Was writ- - ten, i.e. :"pursuit of life, liberty. and happiness As long as the artists, understand that although they will be able to hate their products for sale as well as for exhibit at prices they determine the\ will need to run the planned function. according, .to Nature Coast, Greenways and Trails State of Florida Environmental Protection. This includes any releases we may wish to run ourselves regarding the activity taking place at the depot. I don't believe this would create a prob- lem but just in case I'll have one of the director's husbands who is an attorney check out what the paperwork regarding this venture may entail. He is not available to do this until "after April 23rd. We Nill be meeting at the depot on the llth at 11:00 a.m., already sanctioned by Gre- enways and Trails and running From The Desk Of Gilchrist County Sheriff David P.

I'll remind everyone of our original mission as registered with the State of Florida; to avoid exploitation of artists, increase tourism, and our concerns for the convenience for senior citizens and library users. I'm being cautious, not want- ing to see the individuality of artists threatened. Barbara C.

Guy was a teenager in California in an area where his school friends and his co- ,workers were Nisei, Americans born of Japanese immigrants.' Guy learned to"speak Japanese and when he joined the Marines and was stationed in Saipan; he had an unusual advantage. He eventually captured some 1,500 enemy soldiers. Guy went into caves and convinced would-be- prisoners that they'd be fed and treated well if they surrendered. One capture was witnessed by his fellow Marines when he single-handedly brought in 800 prisoners. A movie was made of Guy's experiences, his ingenui his heroism. Jeffery portrayed Guy with co-st Damone and David Jenss Although Colonel Jo Schwabe, USMC, mended that he be awari Congressional Medal of Guy only received the Star. Sixteen years laterI awarded the Navy Cross. we await word that he nally receive the original mendation of the Congre Medal of Honor.

Official-outlooks in- I be on dicate that the remaining months t 11:30 of the peak fire season (March, y Quilt April, May, June) will continue Oth Av- to' be drier and warmer than' fet will normal. This drying condition has resulted in hazardous fuel be our conditions in the Waccasassa District (Alachua, Levy, Marion and Putnam counties). Over 30 days have passed since the District has experi- enced any significant rainfall. The current Ketchum Beech Drought Index (KBDI) for this area is 466 on a scale of 0 800, which is approaching a critical level. The Division of Forestry is. recommending residents use extreme caution when conduct- ing any outdoor burning and to postpone burning until the area experiences significant rainfall if possible. "Most of our escaped fires occur from yard waste type fires and not from experienced burners with equipment," stated Gary Beauchamp. Forestry Operations Administrator. He continued, "Anyone conducting any outdoors type activities that might generate sparks or heat .need to be cautious." Outdoor burning tips include': never leave a fire unattended. don't bum on windy days, keep a water hose or shovel handy in case your fire escapes, be sure your fire is completely out before you leave and make sure- you meet the required setbacks.. Setbacks for residential piles of eight feet diameter .or less are 25 feet from your house, 25 feet from forests, 50 feet from public paved roads and 150 feet from occupied buildings.

Silver Springs Is Sick And Needs Help Fabled Sirver Springs. near Ocala, Florida's majestic num- ber one First Magnitude Spring and the state's first attraction and home to the old Tarzan movies, is sick. Consider: . Scientists from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the U.S. Geological Survey, The Florida Geologi- cal Survey, Florida Governor Bush's Springs Task Force, and an array of scientists have con-. cluded that Silver Springs is now in a degraded condition, due to nitrates, pesticides. 'storm water and other pollutants. Preliminary studies show that over the past 50 years Silver .Springs has experienced a 90 percent decline in fish popula- tion and a 170 percent increase in the kinds of algae that dam- age aquatic life. according to Dr. Bob Knight. a Florida %wetlands ecologist. e Former. senior state biologist and springs expert. Jim Steven- son, has shown that a rise in the pollution level of Florida springs directly parallels population growth. A study prepared by a 16- member Florida Springs Task Force for the state's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) stated that Silver Springs now suffers from a "decline in water quality" thanks to nutri- ents such as nitrates. . Many Floridians fear that conditions at the springs could become even worse, if Mi- ami-based Avatar Corporation' follows through with its. plan' to build homes for 22.000 resi- dents, professional offices, retail' space,. ':bigbox" stores..and.golf..' courses starting about one mile north of Silver Springs. Part of the development would also sit on one of the most important water recharge areas vital to the health of the springs. This re- charge area is made up of karst, or extremely porous limestone,, that allows water .and pollut- ants to quickly move down to underground water sources for the Springs. New development would also drastically change, the landscape and destroy, habitat for species currently protected under state law such as the Florida black bear and the gopher tortoise. Much of this property is Sandhill Community that is made up of Longleaf Pine and Turkey Oak. An estimated 90 percent of these trees have disappeared from Florida be- cause of development. In addi- tion, biologists say that hundreds of species of plants and animals live in the Sandhill Community and nowhere else. Costly new roads, schools, sewer lines, and otherr infrastructure spawned by the development could possibly trigger even more development on adjacent lands and forever change this area. . Floridians who understand this situation want this land pre- served. For instance, the Silver Springs Basin Working Group. a coalition of state agencies, busi- nesses, and private organiza- tions, says that state acquisition of the Avatar land is the single most important purchase that could be made to protect the spring. Florida's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has the Avatar properties as a number one on its "A" acquisi- tion list. Governor Jeb Bush also wants this land purchased and preserved. The Board of Com- missioners in Marion County, where Silver Springs is located. recently passed a springs pro- . tection resolution, and publicly', ; urged the Governor and DEP to purchase A\ atar properties. Long time state residents. along with visitors from around the'world who have experienced this Florida treasure, want it to be saved for future generations. After all. Silver Springs Park already belongs to the people, .of Florida and currently is being leased to an entertainment-based company. One day it could be added to Silver River State Park that is adjacent to the springs. Why should this public resource . not be protected? To its credit, Avatar has stated 'publicly that it is' willing to spend millions of dollars on its de elopment with new methods to mitigate any .new influx of nitrate pollution. Sadly. how- ever, Silver, Springs. can't take any more. A normal amount of nitrate is .02 milligrams per liter of water: Once a Florida spring reaches a level of 1.0, it experi- ences ecological decline. Silver Springs already has reached that' danger point. In addition, Avatar has not ruled out negotiating selling ;its holdings to the state. That means there"s still hope... but there's not much time. So, please write to Governor Jeb Bush, The Capitol, 400 S. Monroe St., Tal- lahassee, FL 32399-1300 and ask him to continue negotiations with Avatar and to use Eminent, Domain if necessary to protect this land. Also write to Mr. 'Gerald Keifer CEO, A\ atar Properties Inc., 201 Alhambra Circle, Coral Gables, FL 33134. Thank him for negotiating with the state and urge him to sell its Avatar hold- ings near Silver Springs for the common good. Sincerely, John Dunn Ocala Bronson Warns Consumers To Avoid "Jury Duty" Scam Florida Agriculture and Con- sumer Services Commissioner Charles H. Bronson recently alerted consumers to a growing identity theft, scam in which con artists posing as courthouse workers claim that the person being called has failed to report for jury duty. The scam has been reported in 11 states, although it is un- clear whether it has surfaced in Florida, officials say. S"If you get such a call, hang up and avoid providing any per- sonal or financial information over the phone," Bronson said., "Court workers don't call on the phone to inform you that you've missed a jury duty summons." The scam typically involves a call from a person claiming to be a jury coordinator who informs the person being called that a Smith Amendment Requires Energy Commission To Address Greenhouse Emissions State Senator Rod Smith (D - Alachua) passed an amendment to SB 888 requiring that the proposed Energy Commission develop a Climate Action Plan which will include statewide greenhouse gas reduction . goals and offer. specific recommendations on how warrant has been issued for his' or her arrest as a result of the person's failure to appear for jury duty. When the intended. victim protests and reports that they've never received a sum- mons. to report- for jury duty, they are asked for a Social Secu- rity number, a date of birth, and sometimes even a bank account number. .Providing that information enables the scam artist to clean out the consumer's bank account and open up other accounts, obtain credit cards and estab- lish other lines of credit.in the victim's name, Bronson warned. : "This is a particularly insidi- ous fraud because most people ,take jury duty seriously and naturally would want to clear up any misunderstanding about whether they failed to show up for it as quickly as possible,", the Commissioner said. "Such a' call would understandably upset most people. especially with the threat of arrest, and catch them 'off guard." , The scam reportedly has sur- faced in New York. Minnesota, Illinois, Colorado, Oklahoma and other states in recent years, and authorities are concerned that it % ill spread. It is yet an- other example of how con artists try to rip off consumers. "'People need to always re- :,member to avoid giving any personal or financial information over the telephone 'to 'anyone whose identity they .have not verified," Bronson said. A Security Title Compan (352-463-6403) Gregory V. Beauchamp Douglas K. McKoy to achieve those goals. The amendment passed unanimously in the Senate Environmental Preservation Committee on Monday afternoon. 'This amendment .recognizes that greenhouse gasses are a problem and that we should work for a reduction of greenhouse emissions," Senator Smith said. "Florida should be a leader in the effort to reduce emissions rather than simply dancing 'around one of the biggest issues of environmental and energy policy." As' proposed. SB 888 would create a Florida Energy Commission to establish an energy policy, streamline the process for building new power plants and transmission lines and , promote the use .of alternative sources of energy. :Twenty- eight other states currently have Climate Action Change Plans, while Florida is particularly susceptible to any rise in sea levels. Senator Smith's amendment would ,require the Energy, Commission to identify specific areas where greenhouse gas' reductions' are feasible and, recommend to the Legislature specific greenhouse gas reduction levels for businesses and individuals., "I'm glad to: see Senator. Smith. taking this important first step in curbing greenhouse gas emissions," said Harvey Ruvin, noted environmentalist . and Miami-Dade County Clerk of Courts. "With so much at' risk for Florida and the planet, the time to act is now." Ruvin's activism has been honored by' numerous statewide and national environmental organizations and is the only two time recipient of the Tropical Audubon Society- Conservation A\ward.

Bradley Rhodes Bell Sr. Reporter State Senate Candidate Perry McGriff Says Paper Trail Is Essential To Protecting Integrity Of Elections, State .Senate candidate -Perry McGriff announced recently his, strong support for the require- ment for a paper trail for all ballots .cast in Florida. "One ;of the most basic principles of a democratic society is that all eligible votes are accurately counted, and we currently do not have that guarantee in Flonda,". McGriff said. McGriff. a former state, rep- resentative who is seeking the Democratic nomination for the District 14 State Senate-, seat, said he is pleased that bills have been filed in the Florida Legisla- ture that would require a paper record of all votes cast. The disputed 2000 race for president cast a spotlight on the unreliability of punch-card ballots that \\ere used in some of Florida's most populous counties. "In 2000. the sight of Florida's election officials ex- amining hanging chads trying to determine xoter's intent was all everyone needed to see that something was seriously wrong with the %oting systems in many counnes in our state. Switching to touch-screen voting machines for which there is, no indepen- dent paper trail was a step in the wrong direction," McGriff said. Serious questions have been raised about the reliability of this type of voting machine as well as its \vulnerabilit 1to deliberate tampering as stated in a complaint filed with Attorney General's office. A paper trail is essential for, recount or audit purposes. All touch-screen voting machines that do not have paper trails could either be replaced or fitted with printers that will proxy ide a paper record. The Commission on Federal Election Reform. co-chaired by fonner President JinunN Carter and former Secretary of State James Baker, identified.;the. need for verifiable paper trails for electronic voting machines as one of the most important changes needed to protect the integrity of the election process. Common Cause, the non-par- tisan' citizen's advocacy' group, and many' other organizations are supporting this basic reform. A paper trail is required in 25 states' and 16 of those states require that the paper ,ballot be counted as the true record in the case of a manual recount: Noting that opinion polls ha'e found that one-third or more of Americans do not feel it is likely that their votes will be counted accurately, McGriff said, "it is extremely important' that, citizens have confidence in the integrity of the election process, and requiring a paper trail for all votes is a simple and, direct way to help restore their confidence." n--T~rc,-NA~rArrTT A ()) Gator Storage Trailor Rentals 352-372-6206 .

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Con- servation Commission .(FWC) suggests buying your child a bunn. rabbit or a stuffed animal instead. "Although these ducklings might make nice pets while they're young, they can live ten years and quickly outgrow the cute and fuzzy stage, leaving full-size droppings on your pa- tio and outdoor furniture," said FWC waterfowl biologist Diane Eggeman. "When this happens, parents and children. often grow tired of caring for these pets and decide to turn them loose into the wild." What they may not realize is' this is illegal and putting.Flori- da's native wildlife in jeopardy. No one may possess, buy or sell mallards in Florida w without spe- cial permit from the FWC, and releasing them is prohibited. These activities are against the la\w because domesticated ducks.' once released, are capable of THURSDAY, AFFdL 0, Yuuo 'Bell Senior aid Junior Land JTIdgiig Team a7. the irtcent state competition.

The more imn portant reason is that releasing ' mallards threatens the existence of the Florida mottled duck, Ai-I unique subspecies found only in peninsular Florida. "These domesticated mal- I lards are crossbreeding with the mottled duck. producing hybrid. offspring." Eggeman said. "This - is a serious concern and if not j stopped. this hybridization could, result in the Florida mottled j duck becoming extinct." Pet mallards will not migrate, ;- when they are released. They become established, year-round - residents of our state. When thef-". mate with wild mottled ducks, it pushes Florida's mottled ducks,. closer to extinction. - The Florida mottled duck. population is relatively small,- and already FWC biologists are saving as many as 12 percent of these ducks are showing genetic evidence of hybridization. Today, the future of oqw', mottled duck is uncertain, but its fate is in Floridians' hands. The. solution starts iit n riot buying mallards for children's Easter gifts.

In addition Realtors have the same legal requirement of disclosure. - A Seller will fill out a form known as a "Sellers Real Property Disclosure". This form is kept in the office of their Realtor, and is giyen to prospective Buyers when requested, or once a contract is received. - This .disclosure goes over everything from where the mailbox' is located, to actual 'issues with the home, such as roof leaks, plumbing leaks, electrical issues, and anything that the Seller has knowledge of that will affect the value of the Property. - The Realtor also must inspect the property and point out items they notice which may affect the, value of the Property., In addition, when a realtor has knowledge of potential development, or other changes in the area, they must notify both parties as these changes may have an effect on the property's value. -. There may be items that the Seller and the Realtor have no knowledge of. I always recommend buyers to have a professional Home Inspection performed. The Home Inspector will go through'every nook and cranny in a home to find defects. For a list of Home inspectors in our area, visit my homepage www.willgillespie.net. - Items that are not required to be disclosed, are deaths in the home, whether by natural causes, murder or suicide. The fact that a past owner has AIDS or HIV is not required to be disclosed and the fact that a sexual predator living in an area is not required to be disclosed. However you can obtain this information by going to the website of your local sheriffs office, or the FDLE website.

"I think we have proven without a. doubt that students in a rural ,fea, such as ours, can compete :-.ith and many times. surpass students from larger and more affluentt areas." Mr. Owens goes on to say "The thing that I will miss the most is the interaction with the students." Superintendent Vickers praised Mr. Owens for the 21 years he has given to Gilchrist County and stated, "Mr. Owens reports to work early every morning, and can still be found at the school late in the afternoon. He is a strong advocate for young students and searches constantly to find ways to help them learn." Mr. Owens is married to Janie Owens who is a middle school math teacher at Trenton. They have three grown children and one grandchild. His future plans include a little fishing and a whole lot of gardening. He- also hopes to spend some time helping people in need in this community. Mr. Owens will be- "starting a new chapter in his life" as he puts it, and Mr. Rick Reed will be appointed as Interim Principal for the remainder of this school year. We hope Mr. Owens knows how much everyone at, Bell Elementary School appreciates and respects him and we wish him all the best in his future endeavors!

This is also an evacuation route," Watson explained. He also explained that CR 313 from SR 26 to CR 344 is another road that needs extensive work. Watson explained to the board that the Department. of Transportation \\ill accept two projects from each county to be considered for funding.
