The members of the Jasper
City Council have passed an
ordinance prohibiting the com-
mercial operation of slot ma-
chines within the city limits,
which became effective on Jan.
9.
Slot machines that involve
an element of chance are al-
ready illegal in Florida. But the
members of the city council
found no substantial difference
regarding the adverse effects
of slot machines governed by
chance and those requiring
some element of skill. The ad-
verse effects include gambling
addictions, crime and financial-
loss.
The ordinance prohibits slot:
machines that operate by
chance as well as those which
require the application of skill.
The following slot machines
are included in the ban: Fruit

Groundhog Day actually
has roots in German culture.
Candelmas was the name of
the celebration that was the
precursor to the modern
day Groundhog Day. Cele-
brants lit candles to lure
back the spring weather so
that crops would flourish
and farm life could begin
anew. Weather predictions
were also common during
these celebrations.
Germans relied oin 'the
hedgehog to, predict the on-
coming of-spring. When the
tradition was brought to
America by German immi-
grants, hedgehogs weren't
part of North American
wildlife. So settlers adapted
and used the groundhog, or
woodchuck, instead.
Residents of Punx-
sutawney, Penn., northeast
of Pittsburgh, were some of
the first celebrants of
Groundhog Day. Punx-
sutawney Phil, as their
groundhog is so aptly
named, is by far the most fa-
mous weather prognosticat-
ing groundhog around. He
achieved even greater fame
when the film Groundhog
Day, starring comedian Bill
Murray as a reporter cover-
ing the Groundhog Day fes-
tivities, was released.

Florida Department of Health
participates in space launch to Pluto
The Florida Department
of Health (DOH) provided
radiological support during
the successful National
Aeronautical and Space Ad-
ministration (NASA) New
Horizons launch to Pluto.
As part of a team of partners
from local, state and federal
agencies, the DOH Bureau
of Radiation Control (BRC)
assisted with preparatory
and response activities in
the event of a space launch
accident.
The spacecraft was
launched on an Atlas V
rocket from Cape Canaveral
Air Force Station. It contains
24 pounds of plutonium-238
(Pu-238) on board to gener-
ate power during its 10-
year, four-billion-mile trip.
The plutonium used in the
radioisotope thermoelectric
generator (RTG) generates
heat as it decays into non-
radioactive materials. The
heat is converted into elec-
tricity by an array of ther-
mocouples that then power
the spacecraft.
Pu-238 emits alpha radia-
tion as it releases heat. This
radiation can be blocked by
a sheet of paper and only
becomes a medical concern
if it is inhaled and lodged in
the lungs.
The BRC provided staff at
the on-site Radiation Moni-
toring Center, off-site sur-
veillance with its Mobile Ra-
diological Emergency Labo-
ratory (MERL), and partici-
pated in four joint
federal/state/NASA off-
site monitoring teams. The
monitoring teams would
have immediately provided
trained staff to find and
quantify any radioactive
material in the area and
make recommendations to
local emergency manage-
ment if there had been an
accident. Additional state-
wide bureau staff were on
standby for immediate de-
ployment.
"We are pleased that this
was a successful launch and
were happy to provide
qualified professional staff
from the Bureau of Radia-
tion Control," said DOH
Secretary for Health M.
Rony Francois. "The success
of this mission is a testimo-
ny to the fruitful results of
cooperative planning, while
safety remained a priority in
order to assure a successful
mission to Pluto."
New Horizons will at-
tempt to learn more about
the surfaces, atmospheres
and interiors of Pluto, its
moon and surrounding
space environment.
Road To Recovery provides
transportation to cancer patients
The American Cancer So-
ciety is launching its Road
to Recovery program in
North Florida. The program
has been designed to fulfill
one of the major needs en-
countered by cancer pa-
tients getting to and from
treatment. Volunteers can
ensure that all patients are
getting the care they des-
perately require.
The American Cancer So-
ciety has placed thousands
of bookmarks in the public
libraries of an eleven-coun-
ty area that encourage vol-
unteer drivers to join the
Road to Recovery Program.
The bookmarks also en-
courage -cancer patients
who need a ride, to call and
request one.
Transportation issues are
particularly difficult in this
area given the distances to
treatment centers. Many pa-
tients need daily or weekly
treatment.. often over the
.course of several months.
and they' don't have a car or
are simply too ill to drive.
The American Cancer Soci-
ety's program provides
transportation for cancer
patients to and from these
life-saving appointments.
Volunteer drivers donate
their time and the use of
their personal vehicles to
transport these patients.
A recent poll of treatment
centers by the ACS found
that 90% of centers reported
they have had patients miss
treatment appointments
due to lack of transporta-
tion. Also, community med-
ical transportation
providers report that their
most common medical des-
tination is to radiation treat-
ment centers.
Road to Recovery is the
very essence of the Ameri-
can Cancer Society mission -
people helping people over-
come cancer. Volunteers
provide an essential and
necessary service because
even the greatest medical
ad\ianlce.is usle if patient.
can't get treatment.
,The American Cancer So-
ciety has a vast volunteer
network helping local com-
munity members make a
difference in the fight
against cancer. Road to Re-
covery volunteer driving re-
quires no special skills or
education just a safe dri-
ving record, a valid driver's
license, some free time, a ve-
hicle in good working con-
dition, and the desire to
help.
This volunteer opportuni-
ty is designed to be an easy
and stress-free service for
both patients and volun-
teers. Training sessions,
maps and directions are pro-
vided to those who volun-
teer their time. For more in-
formation or to volunteer for
this important service, con-

Florida to help seniors with medicine belatedly
Submitted
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush an-
nounced on Thursday, Jan.
27, that the state will pay
for drugs for dual eligible
seniors who were missed in
the transition from Medic-
aid to Medicare drug plans
that occurred on Jan. 1. His
decision follows wide-
spread complaints by pan-
icked Floridians, furious
pharmacists and others.
Approximately 20 other
states have already acted
because of the problems
caused by the transition.
The payment, which will
be reimbursed by the feder-
al government, affects
those elderly and disabled
Floridians who are eligible
for both Medicare and
Medicaid. The coverage
will last until Feb. 15, with
plans to extend it if the cur-
rent problems are not fixed.
In Hafnilton County, this
is welcome news. The
Hamilton County Pharma-
cy Assistance Program has
seen many people who
were unable to get their
medicines. Most have re-
lied on doctor's offices for
samples or spent money
needed for food or necessi-
ties to get a limited supply
of their drugs. Local social
service offices have noticed
a marked increase in re-
quests for assistance due to
people having to spend
their limited funds for med-
icine at full price.
The Hamilton County
Pharmacy Program
(HCRXPAP) is funded by a
grant from The Blue Foun-
dation for a Healthy Flori-
da, Inc. The program pro-
vides free assistance with
the application process for
reduced-price or free pre-
scription medications.
Some pharmaceutical
companies will supply their
drugs that are not on the
approved list to low-in-
come consumers and Med-
icaid recipients. Discount
cards and low-cost pricing
on generic medicines
through mail order are also
available.
To apply for assistance,
take prescriptions,
Medicare cards, other in-
surance cards, identifica-
tion and verification of in-
come to the office. The ap-
plication process usually
takes four to six weeks be-
fore the medication is re-
ceived. Those applying
should be prepared to buy
the medicine or ask their
doctor for samples until
they begin receiving it in
the mail.
The program, in coordi-
nation with the SHINE pro-
gram, has the latest infor-
mation on the Medicare
drug program. Both pro-
grams are located in the
Sandlin Building at 204 NE
1st St in Jasper. They are
open Monday, Wednesday
and Friday from 8 a.m. until
5 p.m., and Thursday from
1 p.m until 4 p.m. A repre-
sentative is in the White
Springs Library on the first

Spiritual
Guidance
By Pastor Jett Cordero New Hope BapllIst
"Who you are makes a difference"
A teacher in New York
decided to honor each of
her seniors in high school
by telling them the differ-
ence each of them had
made. She called each stu-
dent to the front of the class,
one at a time. First, she told
each of them how they had
made a difference to her,
and the class. Then she pre-
sented each of them with a
blue ribbon, imprinted with
gold letters, which read,
"Who I Am Makes a Differ-
ence."
Afterwards, the teacher
decided to do a class pro-
ject, to see what kind of im-
pact recognition would
have on a community. She
gave each of the students
three more blue ribbons,
and instructed them to go
out and spread this ac-
knowledgment ceremony.
Then they were to follow up
on the results, see who hon-
ored whom, and report
back to the class in about a
week.
One of the boys in the
class went to a junior execu-
tive in a nearby company,
and honored him for help-
ing him with his career
planning. He gave him a
blue ribbon, and put it on
his shirt. Then he gave him
two extra ribbons and said,
"We're doing a class project
on recognition, and we'd
like for you to go out, find
somebody to honor, give
them'a blue ribbon, then
give them the extra blue rib-
bon so they can acknowl-
edge a third person, to keep
this acknowledgment cere-
mony going. Then please
report back to me and tell
me what happened."'
Later that day, the junior
executive went in to see his
boss, who had been noted, by
the way, as being kind of a
grouchy fellow. He set his
boss down, and he told him
that he deeply admired him
for being a creative genius.
The boss seemed very sur-
prised. The junior executive
asked him if he would accept
the gift of the blue ribbon,
and would he give him per-
mission to put it on him. His
surprised boss said, "Well,
sure." The junior executive
took the blue ribbon and
placed it right on his boss's
jacket, above his heart. As he
gave him the last extra rib-
bon, he said, "Would you
take this extra ribbon, and
pass it on by honoring some-
body else. The young boy
who first gave me the rib-
bons is doing a project in
school, and we want to keep
this recognition ceremony
going and find out how it af-
fects people."
That night, the boss came
home to his 14-year-old son,
and set him down. He said,
"The most incredible thing
happened to me today. I was
in my office, and one of the
junior executives came in
and told me he admired me,
and gave me a blue-ribbon
for being a creative genius.
Imagine! He thinks I'm a cre-
ative genius! Then he put
this blue ribbon that says,
"Who I Am Makes a Differ-
ence," on my jacket above
my heart. He gave me an ex-
tra ribbon. and asked me to
find somebody else to honor.
As I was driving home
tonight, I started thinking
about whom I would honor
with this ribbon, and I
thought about you. I want to
honor you. My days are real-
ly hectic and when I come
home, I don't pay a lot of at-
'tention to,.you. Sometimes I
scream at you for not getting
good enough grades in
school, and for your bed-
room being a mess. But
somehow tonight, I just
wanted to sit here and, well,
just let you know that you
do make a difference to me.
Besides your mother, you
are the most important per-
son in my life. You're a
great kid, and I love you!"
The startled boy started
to sob and sob, and he
couldn't stop crying. His
whole body shook. He
looked up at his father and
said through his tears,
"Dad, earlier tonight I sat in
my room and wrote a letter
to you and Mom, explain-
ing why I had killed myself,
and I asked you to forgive
me. I was going to commit
suicide tonight after you
were asleep. I just didn't
think that you cared at all.
The letter is upstairs. I don't
think I need it after all." His
father walked upstairs and
found a heartfelt letter full
of anguish and pain.
The boss went back to
work a changed man. He
was no longer a grouch, but
made sure to let all of his
employees know that they
made a difference. The ju-
nior executive helped sev-
eral other young people
with career planning, and
,never forgot to let them
know that they made a dif-
ference in his life ... one be-
ing the boss' son. And the
young boy and his class-
mates learned a valuable
lesson, "Who you are does
make a difference."
May His blessings be
your blessings!

THE JASPER NEWS. Jasper, FL
Local teacher
recognized
for creativity
in the classroom
Joy Hall, a Kindergarten
teacher at Kathleen Ele-
mentary in Lakeland, Fla.,
has been recognized for
her creativity and success
in the classroom as a Dis-
ney Teacher Award Nom-
inee. Hall joins an elite
group of teachers from
across the country who
have been recognized by
their communities. As the
next step in the awards
process, Hall will submit
an application to be con-
sidered for the 2006 Dis-
ney Teacher of the Year
Award.
"I was pleasantly sur-
prised and honored that a
peer recognized and ap-
preciated the effort I put
forth to implement cre-
ativity into my daily cur-
riculum. It is my goal that
my original and creative
style of presentation will
motivate and educate
every child according to
his or her unique learning
style," said Joy Hall.
Since 1989, Disney
Teacher Awards have
been presented to teachers
who construct learning
environments where stu-
dents and teachers alike
explore, imagine and en-
gage in a variety of stimu-
lating ideas and experi-
ences. Specifically, the
program honors those
teachers whose approach-
es exemplify creativity in
teaching and who inspire
a joy of learning in their
students.
"Sixteen years ago, we
started celebrating local
heroes by establishing the
annual Disney Teacher
.Awards to celebrate and
honor America's finest ed-
ucators," said Terry Wick,
vice president, Disney
Worldwide Outreach.
"This nomination process
shows thousands of teach-
ers across the country
how much their work
means to their students,
colleagues and communi-
ties."
In addition to letters of
recommendation, Hall
will submit an application
that includes several pro-
fessional reflection essays
describing her classroom
and approach to teaching,
the impact of high stakes
testing, how she ap-
proaches collaboration in
her school and career and
an event that shaped her
as a teacher. A committee
composed of education
experts from around the
country will then review
the nominee applications
and select the 2006 Disney
Teacher Award Honorees.
The Honorees will be
announced in late spring
and celebrated at a red-
carpet Awards Gala in
July. During the Gala, four
Honorees will be selected
as Outstanding Teachers
and one will be named the
2006 Disney Teacher of
the Year. In addition, the
Honorees will each re-
ceive $10,000, a $5,000
grant for their schools and
a six-day professional de-
velopment institute with
their principals at the
Walt Disney World Re-
sort. At the institute,
teachers will share ideas
to refine their innovative
teaching approaches and
learn how to engage other,
teachers to build an effec-
tive collaborative teaching
culture at their schools.
Hall is the daughter of
Robert and Peggy Folsom
and graduated& from
Hamilton County High
School in 1986.

Lady Trojans Soccer team
shines in district tournament
The Hamilton County Lady Trojans Soc-
cer team traveled to Tallahassee for a first
round district playoff game with Florida
High. The upset minded Trojans were
seeded third and faced the Florida High
team for the third time this year. The
Lady Trojans were defeated by the Semi-
noles 8-0 in their first meeting and 6-1 in a
home game earlier this year. The Lady
Trojans have steadily improved through-
out the year.
According to Coach Byrd, "I felt our
team had an excellent opportunity to win
our first district playoff game. We were
hoping to spread out their defense and
create more of an offensive threat than we
have in the past."
The game started on a very wet and
windy field, but it did not dampen the
play of the lady Tro-
jans. The first 20
minutes was a see-
saw battle with both We had an

keeper. The ball was want to

the FSU keeper was able high S
to keep the ball out of for th(
the net. Coach
The Lady Trojans de-
fense, led by sweeper
Katie Allen, played with
a lot of intensity and prevented the Semi-
noles from penetrating the goal area. By
the 20-minute water break, the lady Tro-
jans were in the game of their lives with
the score 0-0.
"We were certainly pleased with the
way the girls began the game and we en-
coiu aged their ti o'cofitinute to play hard,"
-aid assistant coach Tommy Smith.
The next ten minutes of play proved to
seal the fate of the game. The Seminoles
kicked the ball into the goalie box and it
was properly cleared by fullback Lyndsey
Burnam. The ball bounced out about 30
yards from the goal and a Seminole mid-
fielder miss-kicked the ball up into the air.
The wind, which was blowing toward our
goal, blew the ball past the outstretched
arms of our goalie Roxanne Zamora and
into our goal.

"It was a very lucky and cheap goal. It
was not a shot at the goal but it went in,"
said Coach Byrd.
The goal got the Lady Trojans out of
their game plan. The Seminoles continued
to apply pressure that resulted in another
opportunity to score when one of their
forwards dribbled the ball past Trojan
goalie Zamora and made a hard shot for
an obvious goal to the right side of the
goal. However, defender Alli Kennedy
stretched out to get a foot on the ball and
cleared it out of the goal.
"She did a great job stopping that goal..
That play kept the game in reach and
seemed to put some life back into our
girls," stated Coach Selph.
After a spirited halftime speech by
Coach Byrd, the Lady
Trojans did not allow an-
other goal and played
excellent very well for the remain-
der of the match. The

referee did not

the lady Seminoles. The fans and the side-
line could not believe the call, or lack there
of. It was apparent that the Seminole play-
er had knocked Roberson down to prevent
a shot and he really cannot understand
how the referee missed the call according
to Coach Byrd..
The game became a little bit more physi-
,cal from that point on. .Trojan:midrfielder
Shana Campbell and a Seminole player
were both going for the ball and collided.
Both players fell to the ground and the
Seminole player began kicking Campbell
on the back. The FSU player was ejected
from the game and the Seminoles had to
play the remaining 20 minutes of the game
a player short. The Trojan coaches decided
to go for the win and pushed several

As a result of a bet on the outcome of the Orange Bowl between FSU and Penn State,
Sen. Martinez (r) anted up 23 pounds of Bradley's Country Store sausage to Sen. San-
torum. He also presented Sen. Santorum with a FSU jersey signed by Coach Bobby
Bowden. (Photo Submitted)
Sen. Martinez settles Orange
Bowl wager with Santorum
U,S. Senator Mel Mar-
tinez (R-FL) recently pre-
sented Senator Rick Santo-
rum (R-PA) with the pro-
.ceeds promised in a
friendly wager between
the two senators on the
outcome of the 2006 Or-
ange Bowl in which Penn
State beat FSU 26-23. Sen.
Martinez who wagered
smoked sausage from
Bradley's Country Store in
Tallahassee, delivered 23
pounds of it to Sen. Santo-
rum, representing the 23
points the Seminoles
scored against the Nittany
Lions.
"It was a tough and
well-played game," Sen.
Martinez said, "and
knowing that it was Penn
State's first time in a BCS
game perhaps the home
team wynt a little easy."
"I know Florida is
world-famous for its cit-
rus and we usually ante
up a box of citrus, but giv-
en that FSU is my alma
mater and that the sausage
from Bradley's Country
Store is such a delicacy, I
wanted you to enjoy a
taste of Tallahassee 23
pounds of it a pound for
every point we scored
against your Nittany Li-
ons," Sen. Martinez told
Sen. Santorum.
To Sen. Santorum's sur-
prise, Sen. Martinez also
presented him an authen-
tic FSU jersey complete
with Sen. Santorum's
name on the back and leg-
endary coach Bobby Bow-
den's signature.
"To help Sen. Santorum
remember that FSU has
been to six BCS games,
won two out of three na-
tional championship
games, and still has'the
winningest coach in foot-
ball here is an official,
personalized Seminoles
jersey signed by the win-
ningest coach in football,
Bobby Bowden himself,"
Sen. Martinez said. "Con-
sider the wager settled."
OUTTA THE WOODS
Extended deer season in northwest
zone and duck hunting for kid
By Tony Young
Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission
If you're like me and
haven't bagged that mon-
ster buck yet, or maybe you
live in the central or south-
ern part of the state and'
haven't come to terms with
the fact that general gun
season is over for the year,
February might have just
what the doctor ordered.
You see, there's a special
post-season archery and
muzzleloading gun season
Feb. 16 through Feb. 26, but
only in the North\\estt
Hunting Zone.
Immediately following
the close of the general gun
season in the Northwest
Zone, this special,
archery / muzzleloading
season offers continued
deer and hog hunting op--
portunities. The best part is
it occurs during the rut in
some areas and offers the
best chance of taking a tro-
phy deer.
Only bows and muzzle-
loaders are legal for this
hunt. No crossbows are al-
lowed unless you possess a
Disabled Person Crossbow
Permit. Bows must have a
minimum draw weight of
35 pounds, and hand-held
releases are permitted. For
taking deer with a bow,
broadheads must have at
least two sharpened edges
with a minimum width of
7/8 inch. For taking deer,
muzzleloaders that fire sin-
gle bullets must be at least
.40-caliber. Muzzleloaders
firing two or more balls
must be 20-gauge or larger.
Legal shooting hours are
between one half-hour be-
fore sunrise and one half-
hour after sunset. You are
allowed to take deer and
hogs over feeding stations
on private land, as long as'
the feeding station has
been established for at least
six months before the sea-
son and maintained year-
round. It is illegal to use
bait on WMAs.
Also, Feb. 4 and 5 are
statewide Youth Water-
fowl Hunting Days. Chil-
dren under 16 can hunt wa-
terfowl, coots and common
moorhens while super-
vised by an adult.(18 years
or older). Just the kids can
hunt. .Adults just super-
vise. No licenses or permits
are required for partici-
pants.
Shotguns, 10 gauge or
smaller, are the only
firearms the kids are al-
lowed to use during the
Youth Waterfowl Hunting
Days, and shotguns must
be plugged to no more than
a three-shell capacity.
Shooting hours are one-
half hour before sunrise to
sunset, and waterfowl
hunters may possess only
"non-toxic" shot. Only
steel, tin or shot made from
tungsten-alloy are permis-
sible.
It's legal to use retrievers,
artificial decoys and manu-
al or mouth-operated bird
calls. In fact, they're essen-
tial gear for duck hunting,
Whether you decide to
break out your bow or
muzzleloader again to con-
tinue deer and hog hunting
in the Northwest Zone, or
if you'd rather take your
kid duck hunting during
the statewide Youth Water-
fowl Days February has
you covered.;
Here's hoping your per-
sistence pays off. Take a
kid hunting. If you don't
have any children, offer to
take someone else's be a
mentor. As always, have
fun, hunt safely, and we'll
see you in the woods!
Waylon Bush,
Assistant Principal
It is great to be back in
Hamilton County where I
began my teaching career.
For those of you who may
not know me, I served in
the Hamilton County
school system from 1971
until 1993. In 1993, I moved
to Alabama and served in
the Crenshaw County
School system for twelve
years. For a number of rea-
son, I chose to return to
Hamilton County when the
opportunity arose. My wife
Sherry, grew up in Hamil-
ton County and was excit-
ed to return.
First of all, I thank Mr.
Pennington, Superinten-
dent of Hamilton County
Schools, and the Hamilton
County School Board, for
their confidence in me. I
very much appreciate Mr.
Pennington's recommen-
dation and the Board's ap-
proval of my employment.
I intend to serve the system
faithfully.
I have seen so many peo-
ple, some of whom I recog-
nize and some of who al-
ways ask me the dreaded
question, "Do you know
who I am?" Regardless, the
number of people who
have told me, "welcome
home," has been such a
blessing. It is great to see
old friends, make new
friends, and to see children
and grandchildren of stu-
dents I have taught and/ or
coached. Some have asked
me, "What is the biggest
difference in Hamilton
County since 'you left?"
That one is pretty easy. The
price of land and homes
are dramatically out of kil-
ter iin mi\ humble opin-
ion). I have :told Mr. Pen-
nington that I can easily see
his dilemma in recruiting,
new teachers. Circum-
stances beyond his and the
Board's control, such as
health insurance costs and
real estate costs certainly
hinder their best efforts..
As for SHE, it brings
back a lot of good memo-
ries. There are still a few
employees here that were
here when I left. The staff,
faculty, and the central of-
fice support have been
tremendous. SHE was al-
ways a good school and
still is a good school. It has
a quality faculty arid a
great support staff. I invite
parents and friends to
come to see me (even if I
may hot recognize you). I
am happy to be here and I

you. Most of all, parents,
on the behalf of the admin-
istration, faculty and staff,
you are welcome at SHE.
Mrs. Radford, the read-
ing coach, and her children
are working hard, as are
their teachers, to provide
the quality education your
child is entitled to' and to
prepare for FCAT. Howev-
er, next week we will begin
the third DIBELS assess-
ment. We are told that the
assessment can serve as an
indicator of how your child
will do on FCAT. Besides
DIBELS, teachers have re-
cently completed assess-
ments with a test called
Gates-MacGinite, and
placement tests from the
primary reading series,
Scott-Foresman. Looking at
all the data from the three
tests should provide a pret-
ty good picture of your
child's progress. You are
welcome to call and make
an appointment with me
and/or your child's
teacher to review the as-
sessments and get an idea
of the progress your child
has made. I encourage you
to come in.
Kindergarten is working
hard preparing for our
Stanford 10 test. We are

We also had a special visi-
tor this week, Floppy the
Rabbit.
Mrs. Mickler's first grade
is busy practicing for their
Stanford 10 test coming up
in February. We have been
reading books about fami-
lies and how different tam-
ilies are made up. We are
practicing comprehension
skills as we read the sto-
ries. Parents, remember to
. read with your children
everyday. You'll. be glad
you did.

of fun activities to do and
many interesting details
that we have learned. Some
of the students think they
probably will visit the

The intent to issue and application file are available for public inspection during normal business

The Department will issue the permit with the attached conditions unless a timely petition for an
administrative hearing is filed under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes, within fourteen
days of receipt of notice. The procedures for petitioning for a hearing are set forth below.
A person whose substantial interests are affected by the Department's proposed permitting
decision may petition for an administrative proceeding (hearing) under Sections 120.569 arid
120.57, Florida Statutes. The petition must contain the information set forth below and mustbe
filed (received by the clerk) in the Office of General Counsel of the Department at 3900
Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000.
Under Rule 62-110.106(4), Florida AdministrativeCode, a person may request enlargement of the
time for filing a petition for an administrative hearing. The request must be filed (received by the
clerk) in the Office of General Counsel before the end of the time period for filing a petitionfor an
administrative hearing.
Petitions filed by anm personsiother than ihose entitled to written notice under Section 120.60(3),
Florida Statutes, must be filed within fourteen days of publication of the notice or within fourteen
days of receipt of the written notice, whichever occurs first. Under Section 120.60(3), Florida
Statutes, however, any person who has asked the Department for notice of agency action may file a
petition within fourteen days of receipt of such notice, regardless of the date of publication.
The petitioner shall mail a copy of the petition to the applicant at the address indicated above at
the time of filing. The failure of any person to file a petition or request for enlargement of time
within fourteen days of receipt of notice shall constitute a waiver of that person's right to request an
administrative determination.(hearing) under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes. Any
subsequent intervention (in a proceeding initiated by another party) will be only at the discretion of
the presiding officer upon the filing of a motion in compliance with Rule 28106.205, Florida
Administrative Code.
A petition that disputes the material facts on which the Department's action is based must contain
the following information:
(a) The name, address, and telephone number of each petitioner; the name, address, and telephone
number of the petitioner's representative, if any;, the Department permit identification number arid
the county in which the subject matter or activity is located;
(b) A statement of how and when each petitioner received notice of the Department action;
(c) A statement of how each petitioner's substantial interests are affected by the Department
action;
(d) A statement .of all disputed issues of material fact. If there are none, the petition must so
indicate;
(e) A statement of facts that the petitioner contends warrant reversal or modification of the
Department action;
(f) A concise statement of the ultimate facts alleged, as well as the rules and statutes which entitle
the petitioner to relief; and
(g) A statement of the relief sought by the petitioner, stating precisely the action that the petitioner
wants the Department to.take.
Because the administrative hearing process is designed to formulate final agency action, the filing
of a petition means that the Department's final action may be different from the position taken by it
in this notice. Persons whose substantial interests will be affected by any such final decision of the
Department have the right to petition to become a party to the proceeding, in accordance with the
requirements set forth above.
In addition to requesting an administrative hearing, any petitioner may elect to pursue mediation.
The election may be accomplished by filing with the Department a mediation agreement with all
parties to the proceeding (i.e., the applicant, the Department, and any person who has filed a timely
and sufficient petition for a hearing). The agreement must contain all the information required by
Rule 28-106.404, Florida Administrative Code. The agreement must be received by the clerk in the
Office of General Counsel of the Department at 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35,
Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000, within ten days after the deadline for filing a petition, as set forth
above. Choosing mediation will not adversely affect the right to a hearing if mediation does not
result in a settlement.
As provided in Section 120.573, Florida Statutes, the timely agreement of all parties to mediate
will toll the time limitations imposed by Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes, for holding
an administrative hearing and issuing a final order. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the
mediation must be concluded within sixty days of the execution of the agreement. If mediation
results in settlement of the administrative dispute, the Department must enter a final order
incorporating the agreement of the parties. Persons seeking to protect their substantial interests that
would be affected by such a modified final decision must file their petitions within fourteen days of
receipt of this notice, or they shall be deemed to have waived their right to a proceeding under
Sections 120.569 and ,120.57, Florida Statutes. If mediation terminates without settlement of the.
dispute, the Department shall notify all parties in writing that the administrative hearing processes
under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes, remain available for disposition of the dispute,
and the notice will specify the deadlines that then will apply for challenging the agency action and
electing remedies under those two statutes. 238571-F

-. By Johnny Bullard
he month of Feb-
ruary brings to
mind a number
of special holi-
days and events. During
the month of February,
our minds turn to Valen-
tine's Day, President's
Day and Groundhog Day.
Locally, South Hamilton
Elementary will host a
spaghetti supper at the
school cafeteria on Mon-
day, Feb. 6, from 4:30 p.m.
until 7 p.m. The cost is $5.
In addition to the spaghet-
ti supper, the school will
host an informational
evening for patents and
community members re-
garding the FCAT (Florida
Comprehensive Assess-
ment Test) beginning at 6
p.m. in the school media
center. The public is invit-
ed to attend this event.
Don't forget the upcom-
ing Olustee Battle Festival
in Lake City. This event
will be held the second
Friday in February and
will feature, a number of
outstanding events.
The Stephen Foster
Crafts Rendezvous held
Saturday, Jan. 28, was a
tremendous success. Our
thanks are extended to
Courtney Livengood, craft
square manager at
Stephen Foster, and to all
the park staff members, as
well as all the volunteers
who helped with this spe-
cial event.
Our heartfelt sympathy
is extended to Mrs. Har-
vey (Pat) Oehlert for the
recent death of her hus-
band, Mr. Harvey Oehlert.
A longtime Hamilton
County resident, Mr.
Oehlert taught music and
band at Hamilton County
High School until his re-
tirement. An avid golfer,
Mr. Oehlert was also an
active member of the
Jasper Presbyterian
Church where he directed
the choir for a number of
years. The prayers of all of
our beloved Hamilton
County go out to Mrs.
Oehlert, and we will all
miss our teacher, friend
and one who left many in-
delible footprints on the
"sands of time."

CHRISTMAS AT THE O.K. CORRAL: Fourth grade students at Central Hamilton Ele-
mentary presented a delightful holiday program, Christmas at the O.K. Corral, in Decem-
ber. Photo Submitted
North Starr News

B ... Starr
By Starr Runyon
I heard through the
grapevine that there
were several birth-
days during the
month of January. First I
had a birthday Friday, Jan.
20, and started celebrating
it on Thursday, Jan. 19. I
was taken out to lunch at
Golden Corral in Live
Oak. There, the waitresses
sang happy birthday to
me and brought me a piece
of red velvet cake topped
with ice cream. Next my
nephew, Brent, came over
and we went to our new
restaurant The Free Spirit
Cafe, and had Ms. Linda's
special chips and salsa.
Then they turned on their
music and everyone sang
happy birthday to me. It
was great..
Our next birthday was a
young man named
Cameron Prine. His. day
was the same as mine on
Friday, Jan. 20. His Mom,
Karen, gave him a party
on Saturday; Jan. 21.
Cameron had several of
his friends attend. Those
present were Jestin and
Macey Roberts, Mom
MaryBeth Roberts and
Weston Roberts. Karen
served hot dogs and all the
fixin's. After they ate they
had Cameron's favorite
cake, a Mickey Mouse
cake. Also present were
Cameron's Aunt Terry,
cousin Brittaney and Jerry
from Georgia. Then the
boys went outside to play.
A good time was had by
all.
As you all know our
own Art Smith, son of
Palmer Gene and Addie
Mae Smith from Jasper, is
a famous author. He has
already written two books.
One entitled Back to the
Table, and I believe the
second one had something
to do with Kitchen Tools.
Well, this third book will
be entitled Back to the
Family. Also remember
that Art works for Oprah
Winfrey as her personal
chef. I'm sure Art's new
book will be as great as his
first two. I also heard that
Art was going to appear
on the show Iron Chef as a
judge sometime during
February. Keep your eyes
open for that information.
Looking and listening
for news. Call me at 938-
5516 or e-mail me at starrl-
runyon@gmail.com.
someone asked me
this past week
how I managed
to come up with a
column each week. And
there was a hesitation, re-
ally I do not know. Some
weeks it is hard to get my
thoughts together (age
has something to do with
it), some weeks it just
seems to flow. This week
is a question, so here
goes.
Last week as thoughts
were beginning to go
through my mind, notes
were pulled together,
word was received of the
death of friend Harvey
Oehlert, and it all fell
apart. Next week we will
be paying tribute to -Iar-
vey's life. It is hard to
write anything but "Har-
vey." It seems he was al-
ways "Harvey" to so
many of us (he and Pat
came to Jasper at the same
time Wade, Benjy and I
did). We hope to bring in
thoughts of some who are
younger, and knew him
as "Mr. Oehlert," band di-
rector and friend.
Sometimes the tele-
phone brings all kinds of
news. A telephone call
Sunday evening from son,
Dr. Ben, told me to get
everything locked and
turn the outside lights on.
There had been a rob-
bery/shooting a couple of
blocks from my house.
Needless to say it was not
a very restful night. Al-
though I felt secure, I had
the scanner on and could
tell that our law enforce-
ment were on the job. We
just learned that
Pareshkumar L. Trivedi,
who was shot, is in the
hospital in Gainesville
and is expected to recov-
er. We will keep him and
his family in our thoughts
and hope for complete re-
covery.
We received-correspon-
dence, via email, this
week from Terry Bennett,
who is now living and
teaching in Calhoun, Ga.
We do enjoy hearing from
young people who are
away and still interested
in "hometown folks."
This is one of those things
that keep me wanting to
be involved in writing for
The Jasper News, a chance
to keep in touch.
Terry said, "Life here in
Calhoun has been busy
and lots of fun. Reading
your column every week
in the post office (cannot
even wait until I get
home)!." There is more
that will be of interest to
many of you, some of you
may have heard from
him, but. more will be
shared next week in this
column.(that should keep
you coming back).
We also have news of
Donald Weatherington,
who wrote regarding the
influence Harvey had on
his life. We have heard
many of these comments
in the past week and will
share more next time.
Also, news of Donald's
mother, Audrey.
News today of the
death of Ralph Hender-
son, whose twin brother,
Raymon Henderson pre-
ceded him in death in De-
cember of last year. Our
sympathy and prayers are
extended to the family.
1 had a good conversa-
tion Tuesday morning
with Harry Davis Jr., re-
garding early events in
the City of Jasper. With
the gas situation as it is,
we remember that natural
gas was initiated in Jasper
shortly before we built our
home in 1967. We were go-
ing back to that time and
the improvements made in
our city and county dur-
ing those years. Harry was
still a very young man
during that time and in
asking some questions I
was told that Harry Davis
could answer the ques-
tions. When I said Harry
was too young to remem-
ber too much about that,
he called me. I knew he
was not working with the
City then because he was
still in school at that time
but, we did talk about
some of the happenings
and events of that time.
Mr. Ernest Courtoy was
Mayor and then City Man-
ager, and Mr. D.B. Avriett
was in the position Harry
now has. We remember a
new water treatment
plant, many streets in
town were paved that had
never been paved, Bob
Fish was City Manager,
Lillian Bembry was City
Clerk (Grace Polk at one
time), Peyton Bembry was
Chief of Police and Red-
din Dail was Fire Chief.
Some of you will recall
these times. If you want to
remind us of some, call
me. It is all right to remi-
nisce as we get older, and
our young people need to
know some of these
things. Charlie Rhoden
was the first Sheriff I can
remember. Harry T. Reid
was School Superinten-
dent. I could go on and
on.

Could someone you know be suffering
from a neurological disorder?
Is your child showing some signs that his motor skills are not up to par with his peers?
Perhaps he's a bit uncoordinated tripping and falling regularly while playing with friends. Is he
walking on his toes or complaining of leg pain? While these symptoms could be the result of a
number of conditions, you may want to ask your physician about an inherited neurological
disorder known as CMT.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, an hereditary neuropathy, is a close cousin to the better
known muscular dystrophy. It was named for the three physicians who discovered the disease
in 1886. CMT is the most commonly inherited form of hereditary neuropathy a condition where
extreme muscle weakness may occur, and ultimately can rob sufferers from normal use of their
legs, feet, arms and hands. Many people have the disease and don't even know it.
"Although CMT is the most commonly inherited neuropathy, very few people have heard of it,
even within the medical community. It affects more than 250,000 Americans and is the most
common genetic neuromuscular disease," says Allison Moore, who has CMT and is the founder
of the Hereditary Neuropathy Foundation (HNF), an organization created to expand awareness
of the disease.
At what age does CMT occur? CMT can be present at any age, but symptoms usually do
not appear until adolescence or mid-adulthood. The symptoms are'quite varied between cases
- some experience very mild or completely unnoticeable symptoms, while others have
debilitating conditions. In certain cases, particular drugs used to treat depression, cancer or
even some antibiotics can trigger the onset of more severe symptoms in an individual.
In Allison Moore's case, a cancer diagnosis led to subsequent treatment by physicians who
were unaware that the chemotherapy drugs they prescribed could trigger the onset of CMT.
Immediately after chemotherapy Moore experienced an impairment in her ability to walk, and
two years later was diagnosed with CMT.
What are the symptoms of CMT? Typically people who are genetically predisposed to CMT,
were overly clumsy children, experienced frequent tripping or were slow runners. CMT can
present itself very mildly in childhood, which often makes it difficult for doctors to diagnose it
accurately. Later in life, and as the disease progresses, a decrease in muscle bulk in the legs
and feet may result, making walking very difficult without support or braces. In the most severe
cases, a person may lose the ability to walk and may require a wheelchair.
How do doctors diagnose CMT? A family history is a doctor's first step to see if anyone
else in the family has CMT. Neurological and genetic testing may be necessary to confirm
and/or diagnose CMT.
Is there a cure? There is currently no cure for CMT. However, with proper diagnosis and
treatment, those with CMT often lead healthy, productive lives. They may undergo physical
therapy, orthopedic surgery and psychological treatment to help manage the symptoms, and
some may require braces and other orthopedic devices.
How can I learn more? To learn the most current information about CMT, treatment options,
or to find a specialist in. your area, visit the Hereditary Neuropathy Foundation (HNF) Web site
at www.hnf-cure.org.

By Pam Campbell
Valentine's Day is almost here, a day when most
people think of love. The stores are full of Valen-
tine cards, candy, stuffed animals, balloons, flow-
ers and all kinds of other Valentine gifts! It seems
as though it is almost like Christmas time again
with all the cards and gifts to buy to let someone
know that you love them.I know that it is fun to
give and to receive special Valentine cards and
gifts. It is a fun time for children to make their
own Valentine's or cut out lot's of hearts to deco-
rate a Valentine box. Many people, including chil-
dren at schools will celebrate this day with a
Valentine Party. Many men will be buying roses or
jewelry for their special wife or girlfriend.
Valentine's Day is a wonderful time to remind
your family and friends that you really do care,
that you love them. Sometimes people need to set
aside a special day for that purpose, many times
people are so busy each day with things in their
own lives that they forget to let their loved ones
know how much they really love them. Valentine's
Day should not just be a day of giving Valentine's
and cards to our spouses, boyfriends or girl-
friends, or for children exchanging them with
friends at school. This special holiday day is a
wonderful opportunity for us as Christians to
share the love of God with many other people that
we come in contact with such as neighbors, other
employees, your boss, the postman, a teacher, a
special doctoror nurse, anyone that you come in
contact with in your life. It is a great time for you
to take something special by to brighten up the
day for patients in a hospital or nursing home,
who may otherwise be forgotten. You don't have to
buy expensive gifts or cards, handmade. cards, and
small little gifts, or something baked or made by
you will show hem much love.
On Valentine's Day you really need to remember
your mom, your dad, grandparent's, other rela-
tives and close friends, but especially remember
your spouse, your children or grandchildren, it
will mean so much to them that you remembered!
Don'tjust give to those that you think will give
you something, this is the time to show love with
no strings attached. Remember, it is better to give
than to receive! Now for the most important part
of the whole Valentine Holiday, LOVE, where
does it even come from? Love comes from God,
without God there can be no love. The Bible tells
us in John 3:16 how very much God loves us.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only
begotten son that whosoever believeth in him will
not perish but have everlasting life." Wow! Can
you imagine such love! You see the greatest love
of all is really Jesus saying to everyone "I stand at
the door and knock, if you open the door(to your
heart and life) I will come in. Revelation 3:20 You
see Jesus wants to give you his wonderful love!

Aunt Pams KIDS CORNER Love
Aunt Pams KIDS CORNER -Love
By Aunt Pam
Hey Kids! It's almost Valentine's Day!
I am sure by now you have seen the
boxes of Valentine cards, the packages
of Valentine candy and even Valentine
Stuffed Animals in a store somewhere.
You may already be making Valentine's
or cutting out hearts to decorate a
Valentine box! Maybe your school or a
friend is having a Valentine Party that
you plan to go to. Valentine's Day is a
day of fun and a day of love! I hope
that you will remember to be sure to
give a Valentine to your mom, dad,
grandparent's or whoever you live with.
Be sure to remember any brother's or
sisters, and close friends, too! You can
either make Valentine cards with paper,
doilies, markers, crayons, whatever you
have, or you can have someone take you
shopping and pick some out to buy at
the store. There are lot's of things that
you can make for a Valentine present,
any kind of craft makes a nice gift! You
can even make HUG coupons, just write
up little papers that say THIS COUPON
IS GOOD FOR ONE FREE HUG
WHENEVER NEEDED! Use your
imagination, there are lot's of ways to
show love, you could even help your dad
or mom or someone else with some
chore that needs to be done! The most
important thing is to remember to show
your family and friends that you really
love them!
Think about others this year on Valen-
tine's Day, don't just think about what
you might get. Remember there are lot's
of kids that won't even get a little Valen-
tine card. Maybe you can give someone
that is lonely, unhappy, or sick some-
thing to make them feel loved and spe-
cial!
Do you know where all this love
comes from? Have you ever thought
about it? All love comes from God, for
God is love. The Bible tells us in John
3:16 how very much God loves us. "For
God so loved the world that he gave his
only begotten Son that whosoever be-
lieveth in him will not perish but have
everlasting life." Wow! Can you imagine
such love! You see Jesus wants to give
you his wonderful love! He loves you so
much that he promises in Hebrews 13:5
"I will never leave you." Now that is
real love, the love of God. People may
leave you but God never will!
Truth
I believe without seeing, I believe because I've read,
All the truths within the bible are the words that Jesus said.
The Bible teaches many things, the main objective is truth.
It puts the word in such a way, that man's heart is truly moved.
Some believe Mary was no virgin, and there is no deity in Christ.
Some say He was just a prophet, and could never give eternal life.
Some do not believe in a fiery hell, but they'll burn there just the same.
They just don't want to believe, that the blessed Savior came.
Some think God forgot stuff, so they make writings of their own.
Did they not read Revelation, chapter 22: verses 18-2.1?
Some trust baptism, works, or a church house, to save them from the
torturing flames.
But the only protection provided, is in Jesus Holy name.
There are so many guilty of heavenly truth decay.
But by brushing up on the Bible, will teach that Christ is the only way.
When Valentine's Day gets here re-
member to let your family know you
love them, but most of all remember to
let God know how much you love him.
The greatest love of all is not shown
with a Valentine card, it is how you
show Jesus you love him by giving him
your heart. Matthew 22:37 "Jesus said
unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God with all thy heart, and with all thy
soul, and with all thy mind."
Remember, Valentine's Day is a day
full of love, let your family and friends
and especially God know that you love
them. Have a very Happy Valentine's
Day full of love!

Mrs. Cotrins, Spiril alist
Hea er Reade, Advisor
All who are unsuccessful, unlucky, dissatisfied, let the woman who knows
,help you. She removes evil influence. If husband or wife is unfaithful,
see her now. She settles lovers quarrels, helps you gain the lost love and
affection of the one you love and shows you the way to happiness.
She names friends and enemies and tells you if friends are true or false.
She locates lost & stolen property. She does not claim to be God. She is
just a servant of the Lord who was brought here to help humanity. If you
have any problem concerning the past, present, future, love, marriage,
business, lawsuits, finances, health; if you are in trouble, sick or in love,
there's no problem so great that she cannot solve.
