Adkins announces bid for House seat


(The f'oliwiing is an
(antnili'nce'enleit of intention to
run for public ic office, which
was submitted by the
candidate.)
Nassau County School
Board member Janet Adkins
has announced that she has
qualified by signature petition
to run in the Republican
primary on Aug. 26 to replace
term-limited state Rep. Aaron
Bean.


Janet Adkins


"It is a huge honor to have a
chance to serve the citizens of
Bradford and Union counties
as their next state
representative. My last nine
years as a member of the
Nassau County School Board
have taught me that public
service is about listening to
taxpayers and' parents and
property owners. Representing
families and ensuring that their
voice is heard has' always been
my top priority on the school
board. It is my view that
elected officials should listen,
lead and innovate."
Adkins is a fifth-generation
Floridian. She was raised on
the Westside of Jacksonville
and graduated as valedictorian
from Trinity Christian
Academy. Following
graduation, Janet was the first
in her family to receive a
college scholarship. She
attended Florida Community
College and went on to
graduate with a degree in
information technology from
the University' of North
Florida. After her entry into
the workforce Janet returned to
the school to earn her master's
in Business Administration
and worked for 12 years as an
information technology
consultant for a leading
company in Jacksonville.
Adkins was first elected to
the Nassau County School
Board in 1998 and introduced
a strategic planning initiative
to create a strategic plan with
goals and action plans that
have enabled the Nassau
County public schools to
achieve a consistent A+ district
rating.
Nassau County schools have
been recognized as one of the
top 15 school districts in
Florida and last year Nassau
County eighth-graders were
the top performers in writing
in Florida.
"Education is the one gift we
can give our children that no
one can ever take away. I am
passionate about education
because it has transformed my
life and created opportunities
that otherwise would not have
been possible. I believe with a
good education citizens can
realize the American dream. I
will make improving education
in Bradford and Union
counties a top priority," said
Adkins.-
Adkins introduced efforts to
improve fiscal accountability
and worked with lawmakers to
successfully adopt measures
that would improve school
safety and parental
involvement. Now each school
system must prepare an annual
assessment on school safety
due to her determination to
protect students.
"I understand the complex
legislative environment
because I have actually worked
with lawmakers to get a bill
drafted, introduced and passed
by lawmakers. In 2002, House
Bill 1661 was adopted and
signed into law by Gov. Jeb
Bush. I was approached by a
parent about problems she was
having with her local school
advisory council. After
researching the issue I
discovered that the bylaws that
govern how school advisory
councils operate were all very
different and in many cases
placed parents at a
disadvantage. This new law
required a three-day advance
notice, in writing to all
members of any matter that
was to come before the council
for a vote, defined a quorum as


a majority of the membership,
required that meetings be held
when parents and business
leaders can attend and required
meeting minutes be recorded.
"The need for greater
parental and community
involvement in our schools is
paramount to the success of
our students. By creating
standards in how the school
advisory councils function,
parents and business leaders
would 'have a greater voice in
the schools. Having worked
for two years to pass this
legislation gave me a unique
insight into the complex
process and compromise that is
needed to create meaningful
change.
"Asking for bills to be filed
and passing them into law are
two very different ideas.
Generally there are about
2,500 bills filed every year in
the Legislature. The number
that pass is typically around
300 or only around 15 percent.
It is a tough and detailed
process that surrounds an idea
becoming law. I think it is
especially more complex when
the idea is one from a parent or
from the community. That is
why I am very proud to have
been able to take an idea from
a parent and work to effect a
change that is now the law in
our state. I will carry that
same dedication to ensure that
families, business leaders and
taxpayers are being heard. I
understand what is needed to
ensure success in the
lawmaking .process," said
Adkins.
-Adkins has served on the
Nassau County School Board
as a full-time board member
since 1998. During that time
she served for three years on
the, Nassau County Planning
and Zoning Board where she
developed a special insight
into land development issues
and local land use regulations.
As a member of the school
board, Adkins has pushed for
fiscal accountability and
greater transparency in how
the schools manage and spend
public dollars.
"I have always been in favor
of transparent government. I
pushed to have the school
board meetings televised so
people could participate and
become more aware of what
was happening. I. have ,
consistently called for a budget
reform process 'thaiat 'ould
allow greater public
involvement. As a fiscal
conservative, I have voted to
reduce taxes and have
challenged the school board to
work to reduce the property
tax burden. Quality education

teachers well and then create
standards or expectations for
performance." said Adkins.
In 2005, newly-elected
Clerk of Court John Crawford
appointed Adkins to the
Clerk's Citizen's Budget
Policy Reform Committee for
Nassau County. The citizen's
committee made
recommendations to the
county commissioners to
improve the fiscal condition of
the county. The county
commission adopted many of
the committee's
recommendations and has
placed Nassau County on a
solid financial footing.
"The work of this citizen's
committee helped strengthen
the budget and finance policies
that were affecting the
financial health of our county.
I was proud to have been able
to serve on this important
committee and equally pleased
to have the support and
endorsement of John
Crawford, our county clerk of
court," said Adkins.
"The need for public
participation is critical to
restoring trust and confidence
in government. I support the
efforts of Gov. Charlie Crist
towards more open
government and will work
hard to ensure that people have
a greater say in how their
government is serving them at
the local level. As a fiscal
conservative, 1 am convinced
that if elected officials trust the
wisdom of the taxpayers and
the voters, we will get good
results. Often in government
we have a spending problem
and how the people's money is
spent will be one of my
priorities," said Adkins.

On Thursday, Jan. 10,
Florida's first Surgeon
General, Ana M. Viamonte
Ros M.D., MPH, made a trip
to Union County.
During her visit, she met
with staff at the Union County
Health Department and toured
the facility, receiving an
overview of programs offered
there.
Viamonte Ros also met with
the Be W.I.S.E. committee,
school health employees,
environmental health
department, emergency
management, staff at Lake,.
Butler HpSpital. .,,
Of her visit with the staff at
the health department
Viamonte Ros said, "I am
always amazed at the
uniqueness and ingenuity of
each county health department.
The Union County Health
Department has formed Be
W.I.S.E., a very successful
community-wide health
promotion partnership that
promotes health awareness,
physical activity and healthy
choices."


Viamonte Ros was also
impressed by the health
department's alliance with the
Union County Office of
Emergency Management and
the ways the two departments
work together, such as with a
November precautionary water
notice sent out by recorded
telephone messages from EOC'
to Lake Butler residents. That
notice was rescinded by
follow-up messages the next
day.
Viamonte Ros was named
Secretary of the Florida
Department of Health by Gov.
Charlie' Crist in Jan. 2007.
Under new legislation, on July
1, she became Florida's first
State Surgeon General. She is
the first woman as well as the
first Cuban American to hold
this position.
Throughout all her
community volunteer projects,
she has been a strong advocate
for disadvantaged individuals
and minority communities.
In 1960, her family fled
Cuba and, having come from a
family of refugees, she


understands the struggles of
Floridians with public health
programs. She continues to
work to ensure Floridians
achieve a higher quality of life
through such programs.

The House: a safe, fun place for teens to gather


BY ARNIE HARRIS
Telegraph Staff Writer
Ten years ago when Mark
Santiago was just out of high
school, he said he had a dream
of opening a place for
teenagers to go where they
could play games, listen to
music, enjoy snacks, and
socialize. But he won't call it a
"hangout."
"I don't like the term
because it has too many
negative connotations," said
Santiago.
What he had I mind, he said,
was a positive, place-a
meeting place where the teens
could have fun without
reesorting to alcohol, drugs or
rowdy behavior (smoking by
anyone under 18 is also
prohibited.) What was more
important to Santiago
however, he said, was the
positives that could come out
of such a place.


"Basically, I saw it as a safe
place for kids to come to
play," he said.
In addition, he conceived of'
it as a sort of sanctuary where


kids who might be having
problems at, home, with their
peers or at school could, if
they wanted, have someone to
talk to who would really listen


and would try to help them
straighten out their lives.
"A lot of kids don't have a
first home to go home to and
maybe living with friends or


relatives," Santiago said, "so
they can come here and think
of it as a sort of home where
they can not only have fun,
but where there's someone


they can trust, someone they
can unburden themselves to."
Santiago said that he was

ambassador

program
BY ARNIE HARRIS
Telegraph Staff Writer
Forrest McCord, a seventh-
grader at Lawtey Community
School, will be traveling, to
four European nations in late
June as a student ambassador.
He and 40 other junior-high
level students from across the
country will visit Austria,
France, Italy and Switzerland
over a period of 20 days. They
will be there to learn about the
nations, interact with the
people, keep journals and take
photographs.
The student ambassdor
program is administered under
the auspices of the People to
People Ambassador Programs,
which was established in 1956
under then U.S. President
Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Said Eisenhower at the time,
"I have long believed, as many
before me, that peaceful
relations between nations
require mutual respect between
individuals."
Toward that end Eisenhower
called a White House
conference to which were
invited American political,
business and religious leaders.
The. result was the creation
of People to People
Ambassador Programs based
on the idea that ordinary

Rogers
concert

coming soon
James Rogers, the popular
singing star from Dollywood at
Pigeon Forge, Tenn., will
return to Starke Saturday, Feb.
2, at 7 p.m., for a concert.
Country music will be the
order of the evening and the
Bradford Ecumenical
Ministries Food .Pantry will
benefit from the proceeds of
the concert.
Tickets will be $10 each for
adults and $5 for students.
Tickets can be purchased at the
door, or advance tickets will be
available at the Bradford
County Telegraph and many
local churches. For ticket
information, you call (904)
964-5875 in the evenings.
Rogers is the featured star at
Dollywood, Dolly Parton's
theme park at Pigeon Forge.
On the road in the off season,
he presents a show that
contains something for
everyone from 8 to 80. He is
called one of the most
engaging entertainers
performing today.
Rogers is a singer,
songwriter, musician, and
much more. His composition,
"I Guard America," has, been
selected as the official song of


the Army and Air National
Guard. His "Fly Eagle Fly"
was chosen as the bicentennial
song for the state of
Tennessee.
He combines his exceptional
talents in a mix of musical and
singing skills, country charm
and a charismatic wit to
thoroughly entertain his
audiences. His down-home
patter is warm and humorous.
His shows contain songs from
the 50s and 60s and include
country, folk and ballads,
popular music and new music
he has composed himself.
Roger's first appearance in
the spotlight came when he
was five years old and in the
first grade. He was chosen to
represent his class in a talent
show. This humble beginning
sparked the flame of musical
creativity. He received his first
guitar at Christmas when he
was 11 years old-and the rest,
as they say, is entertainment
history.
He won the 1983 National
Music Festival, sponsored by
Dollywood's forerunner, Silver
Dollar City and WIVK in
Knoxville.
Rogers: received a perfect
score in that contest and was
selected for top honors from
more than 2,000 entrants.
He then became a regular
performer at the entertainment

Mark Santiago (left), owner of the House, serves
snacks to Destiny Castillo.


HOUSE
Continued from p. 1B

taken aback a bit, but gratified
that some of the youth call him
"dad."
"I'm 28, and to have


someone only a decade or
more younger than you
addressing you that way is
special," he said. He also saw
it as a poignant reminder of
what's lacking in many of
these kids' home lives, he said.
Santiago said the idea was
born in him when he was these


kids' age. While he never ran
afoul of the law, he said he
was coming close with many
of the rambunctious and
unwise activities to which
many teenagers are prone.
Last October Santiago's
dream became a reality when
he opened The House on S.R.
16, one block east of U.S 301.
Santiago, whose personal
enthusiasm and energy are
infectious, said he sees The
House as something of a
personal mission informed by
his Christian beliefs.
He is currently a deacon at
Grace Community Fellowship
'Church in Starke, but said he
is not there to impose his
religious beliefs on anyone-
just to create a safe
environment for the kids to be
themselves, have fun, and
hopefully to provide a sense of
direction to many of them, if
they are seeking and are open
to it.
Santiago said that what the
teenagers who come to The
House will find are two pool
tables, TV, an X-Box video
game system, music, and
games they can play such as
chess, Uno and Hoopla.
There is a concession stand
where the kids can buy snacks,


soda, or many of the other
things they can get at the
average convenience store.
"We are planning to add
pizza and coffee to the
selections," he said.
"On Friday and Saturday
nights we have live bands
playing, mostly made up of
teenagers from around the
area," Santiago said.
He made it clear that-it's
mainly the type of music that
appeals to today's teens, i.e.,
heavy metal, grunge and
alternative rock'n roll.
"You're probably not going
to hear too much easy-listening
music," Santiago said
laughing.
Santiago made it clear that
The House is opened to all
kinds of music and the
audiences that enjoy them,
from hip-hop to fusion, if
that's what the kids want.
That being said, Santiago
emphasized that songs with
profanity-laced or anti-social
lyrics are not permitted.
"I love my daughter coming
here because I know she's safe
and not going to get into
trouble," said Sue Castillo of
her daughter, Destiny, who has
been coming to The House
since it first opened,
He made it clear that The
House was still a work in
progress, with many plans for
the future.
"On Tuesdays we plan to
have "open mic night," where
anyone can get up on the stage
and play or sing a song, read
their poetry, do a comedy
monologue or express their
creativity in any other way.

Assessing the property tax amendment


Between fiscal year 1999 and fiscal year 2005, Florida's
population increased by 17 percent while property taxes
increased 68 percent, or $11.4 billion. The combination
of population growth and price inflation caused state
expenses to escalate by about the same amount as taxes
increased. The cost of county operations exceeded the
'consumer price index because county purchases are
more concentrated on expensive items such as fuel,
insurance, pensions and personnel, compared to the
average household purchases of food, shelter and clothing,
which increased at a slower rate.
Some of the increased spending' went into roads,
iw w construction and repairs to existing roads, and
infrastructure to meet the needs of the increased population.
Law enforcement and incarceration of jail inmates also
contributed to higher spending by counties. (Condensed
from a report, "Analysis of County Spending Patterns,"
prepared for The Florida Association of Counties, by Fish
Kind &Associates; Orlando, March 7, 2007.)
Florida Gov. Charlie Crist and the Legislature, in an
effort to slash the cost of county government, have placed
a proposed Constitutional amendment on the ballot
,or, voters' consideration in the upcoming presidential
preference primary, scheduled for Jan. 29. For ratification,
Ihe proposed amendment will require an affirmative vote
iP60,percent or more of voters. The Legislature changed
,"thre quired simple majority (50 percent plus one) to
dic burage frivolous amendments from cluttering the
Constitution.
,i The proposed amendment is lengthy, 633.words,far too

ith' its contents. It deserves careful consideration before

: Jers the distribution of the tax burden, with ramifications
beyhd personal interests and the local economy.
On the surface, it is being touted as a tax reduction
supported by Realtors and commercial property owners,
7,it' opposed by city and county commissioners.
H'Weowners and Realtors, have a vested interest in
ire`cing taxes on homesteads, in constrast with public
officials who see any reduction in government income as
. being unacceptable for obvious reasons.
Two groups, commercial property owners and renters,
have a valid reason to oppose the proposal because
exemptions will not apply to buildings other than to
owner-occupied homes. School officials are seriously
concerned that tax cuts will substantially reduce school
funding, but framers of the proposed amendment left
school taxes unchanged in specific areas. Schools will
suffer a peripheral loss as assessments are capped, but
will gain revenue as homesteads are reassessed following
a change in status of the property.
When a home that has been homesteaded for several
years loses its exemption by sale or change to rental

iga 'tial'iev e for schools, county and
i geia . weQur Homes 3 percent cap is
lost.when a home changes hands by gift, sale, inheritance
or other means, even within the family, and immediately
becomes subject to reassessment to actual value.
The assessment of property for taxing purposes is
complicated beyond belief, and passage of this proposed
amendment will add substantially to the confusion for the
average person.
.In discussing the issue, Bradford County Property
Appraiser Jimmy Alvarez pointed out some interesting
facets of this proposal, one of which is the verbiage
that is approximately 10 times the 75 word legal length
of amendments proposed under the citizens initiative
process. It is also interesting to note its placement on
the presidential preference ballot, rather than the general
election ballot in November. The administration wished to
have the proposal retroactive to Jan. 1,2008, necessitating
the earliest vote possible.
The early election date does not give voters the
necessary time to properly digest the ramifications of'
passing the amendment. Many pro-passage individuals
and groups prefer the early voting date because the
catch phrase "tax reduction" will prevail without careful
consideration of lasting effects, that is, a reduction of
services or an increase in taxes. Historically, county and
city commissioners have been innovative in finding new
revenue sources, and any reduction in ircome-will be met
with offsetting new or additional revenue.

Breaking the amendment down
The legislative proposal has four sections:
1. Increasing homestead exemption.


No school
child goes
hungry
Dear Editor:
This letter was written in
response to the article of Dec.
13 regarding "Students will not
go hungry."
I would like to set'the record
straight. No child has gone
without a meal at lunch. If the
person who "witnessed" the


child's plate being taken away
had stuck around, they would
have seen that the child
received a lunch and was not
sent to class without one, as
the paper stated.
Since we do not know what
school or what child-this
information was requested but
has not been given to me-I
cannot fully check into the
matter.
We do have a "no charge"
policy but, we charge lunches
every day. If you had checked


The amendment, if passed, will increase homestead
exemption by $25,000, not to be confused with a single
$50,000 exemption because it will exempt the first and
third $25,000 increments. The first $25,000 assessment of
a home is already exempt in the 1968 Constitution. The
new proposal, if passed, will exempt the third increment,
between $50,000 and $75,000, thus owners of $50,000
and $75,000 homes will pay similar amounts of taxes on
the assessed value between $25,000 and $50,000.
The first exemption of an assessment reduces school
taxes, but the second exemption does not reduce school
taxes, and to that extent, the new exemption does not
represent as great a savings to the property owner as does
the first.
There are a few single-wide mobile homes in Bradford
County assessed with the land on which they sit and are
subject to ad valorem taxes. That type home is essentially
the only home assessed in the $25,000 range. If a mobile
home is located on other than homestead land, the owner
pays taxes via a license tagsimilar to vehicle tags; Late
model double-wides are taxed in the same manner as stick-
built houses, with many drawing substantial assessments.
The first $25,000 assessment was included in the 1968
revised Constitution as an attraction to voters. Promoters
of the new document were fearful voters would turn
down the new charter if they were not provided with an
incentive for its passage.
2. Transfering Save Our Homes benefits.
For the past 13 years, Florida homeowners have seen
increases in assessments on their homes limited to three
percent per year, regardless of the inflation rate. The
difference between the controlled assessment and the
actual cash value of the hoiiie is recor-ed as-a benefit,
and accumulates as long as the owner retains ownership.
Thus, the longer an owner lives in the house, the more his
accumulated savings grow. As an example, a homeowner
living in a house assessed for $100,000 will see his
assessment increase $3,000 per year, and after 10 years
his assessment will reach $130,00~d
If in the intervening years the home's actual market
value has increased to $200,000, but he is assessed only
on the $130,000, his savings will be the tax rate times the
$70,000 difference.
Meanwhile, a neighbor buying a similar home as his
First home, or who is from out of state, will be assessed on
the total cash value, or $200,000, a substantial difference
in' the amount of taxes levied on homes of similar value.
The proposed amendment would allow homeowners to
carry the savings in assessments over to a new home in
the event they purchase a new home within the time set in
the proposal. The savings may be substantial.
Alvarez says the mobility clause that provides for the
Save Our Homes benefit to be transferred statewide is
affected by millage rates of the involved counties. Many
of the larger counties, primarily in South Florida, are
..assessing at .lower.rates. For, instance, the Palm Beach .
millage. rate is five mills, aas opposed to many small
ountlies charging tlheldgal limit, 10 mills. In that situation,,
a $100,000 benefit is worth $500 in Palm Beach County
and that's the amount it would be worth if transferred
to Bradford County. The same home would accumulate
a benefit of more than $900 in Bradford County, where
the assessment is above nine mills, and the amount is
transferable to other counties.
The inequity of being taxed differing amounts on homes
of equal value based on the length of time the owner has
claimed homestead exemption represents unfair taxation,
and has been tested in the courts. The system was upheld
by the Florida Supreme Court, but the final decision will
be made by the U.S. Supreme Court.
3.Authorizing a $25,000 exemption of personal property
taxes.
This provision of the proposed amendment has little
effect on the average Florida resident, but does provide
some relief for owners of equipment utilized in business,
such as contractors and farmers. Homeowners already
have exemptions for furniture, and personally owned
automobiles that are taxed with license plates.
4. Capping increases on nohhomestead property at 10
percent.
Nonhomestead properties would be protected from
annual increases in property assessments above 10 percent.
This provision provides limited protection to owners of
property at little or no cost to the state and, unlike the
provisions for homestead properties, does not provide
porabiltiy of tax savings to the purchase of new property.

Sneaky
politics?
Dear Editor:
Bradford County Sheriff
Bob Milner-and candidate
for a seat in the House of
Representatives-pulled the
two sneakiest and shadiest
political maneuvers of his
career as sheriff of this county
when he prepared a bill giving
his employees career service
status and prevailing upon one
of his appointed deputies to
stand for sheriff in the
upcoming election.
Now, I know that this is a
flee 'country and elections are a
free democratic process but
this has got to be more than an
accident. To me it reeks of
extension of political power far
beyond that intended by our
forefathers who gave us our

We little knew that morning,
God was going to call your

In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you
You did not go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories
Your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by

The chain will link again.

] MCCORD
Continued from p. 1B
citizens of different nations, if
able to communicate directly,
would solve their differences
and find a way to live in peace.
As noted at the
organization's web site, Since
1963, "Student Amnbassador
Programs has taken thousands
of young Americans across
international brders. Venturing
abroad or on our own
continent, Student
Ambassadors return home with
a greater sense of what it
means to be a good neighbor
and global citizen."
McCord learned that he was
a candidate for the program
when he received a letter from
the organization last August.
For his parents, Marti and
Ingram McCord, this was the
second pleasantly surprising
news they received about
Forrest's academic
achievements.
In 2006, they received a
book from People to People
7 which listed Forrest as one of
the nation's top 500 sixth-
grade students.
"I said, 'Are they sure they
mean Forrest?'" said Marti,
good-naturedly ribbing her
son.
However, she was aware
that he was an A/B Honor Roll
student at Lawtey Community
School.
More than. that, she knew


that he was a young man with
an uncommon interest in world
affairs and compassion for
pooer and malnourished
children living around the
world.
Forrest said he sends $30
each month to World Visions,
an international relief
organization, to sponsor a
child, Victor, living in
Indonesia.
Forrest sad he earned the
money helping his parents with
various household chores.
Marti, now a stay-at-home
mom after retiring as a
corrections officer, said
Forrest undoubtedly was
influenced in his global
concerns by his father, who
avidly keeps up with world
events. Forrest has two
brothers, Hunter and Houston,
as well three sisters, Autumn,
Summer and Jennifer
Ingram, a retired investor,
said that Forrest partially
developed his empathy from
him, his wife and their church,
but that-he always seemed to
have an inborn sense of
compassion for others.
"When you see a child with
tears in his eyes as he watches
the suffering of small children
on TV, well, that's special,"
said Ingram. "I just love him to
death and am as proud of him
as I can be."
After securing three
reference letters from teachers
and being interviewed by
Bradford High School teacher,
Sue Triest, a liaison for People
to People, he was accepted to
become an ambassador.

FRED THOMPSON a Commonsense Conservative

Supports Federalism: The 10th Amendment

Do you really believe the Federal Government is going to solve your problems? The response I always get
from friends is "no". They recognize that regardless of who is in Washington, whether they are Democrats or
Republicans, the Federal government is simply too far away from our everyday lives to make an impact. It's
like hiring a contractor 500 miles away to fix the roof.

"The federal government should do only those things specifically called for in the Constitution. All others shall
remain with the states or the people..." Ronald Reagan, Nov. 13, 1979, calling for a return to Federalism as
described in the 10th Amendment.

A CATO Institute article FREDeralism! Endorsing Fred Thompson says, "If elected, would today's
GOP candidates be Bush Republicans or Reagan Republicans? Romney, McCain, and Giuliani talk about
cutting federal "waste" and "pork". But the problem with the $2.8 trillion federal budget is not $30 billion in
pork, it is $2 trillion of spending that violates the 10th Amendment to the Constitution as properly the
responsibility of the states and the people." Another CATO Institute article, Huckabee: The Biggest Big-
Government Conservative says, "If you liked George W. Bush's brand of big-spending, big-government
conservatism, you'll love Mike Huckabee. ...Huckabee rejects federalist solutions."

Presidential Candidate Fred Thompson on the other hand points out how the 10th Amendment is abused
by those currently in Washington saying "Perhaps the clearest example of federal over-involvement in state and
local responsibilities is public education. It's the classic case of how the federal government buys authority
over state and local matters with tax-payer money and ends up squandering both the authority and the money
while imposing additional burdens on states.
Between 1970 and 2005, federal spending on education increased nearly 150 percent without results to match.
The No Child Left Behind law itself increased federal funding by some 26 percent, while creating 50 new
educational programs nationally, imposing almost 7 million hours and more than 140 million dollars in
compliance time and costs. The classrooms of America, where the learning actually takes place, receive but 61
cents out of every tax-payer dollar appropriated."

Fred Thompson is the only Commonsense Conservative that would work to Reduce Federal Mandates
that would help state taxpayers across the board.

Forrest, who first attended
Starke Elementary School,
then was homeschooled for a
year, before enrolling at
Lawtey Community School, is
the first chosen from that latter
school and only the third
student elected from Bradford
County in the organization's
52-year history.
"I'm a little nervous about
the trip, but mostly excited,"
said Forrest. "I'm really
looking forward to eating real
Swiss chocolate and real pizza
in Italy," he said.
But for Forrest, the trip will
be much more than a palate
pleaser.
He will be visiting, among
many other sites in the four
countries, The Eiffel tower, the
Roman Coliseum, the Leaning
Tower of Pisa, the Vatican and
the Sistine Chapel.
In Switzerland he will
explore Zurich, bobsled in the
Alps and, of course, stock up
on that chocolate.
In Austria, aside from the
many sites in Vienna, will be a
somber visit to Mauthausen;


the infamous Nazi
concentration camp.
Forrest will also be earning
college credit on his trip as he
writes comparisons of the
different cultures he
experiences and their native
art.
He and his group will also
be guests of honor as they sit
down to dine with the leaders
of the countries they visit.
Like many 12-year-olds
Forrest is a skateboard
enthusiast, but perhaps unlike
his peers this hobby led him to
want to be an architet.. It
happened as he started to
construct a skateboard ramp
and found that he had an
aptitude and enthusiasm for
building structures.
After he completes his initial
trip abroad, Forrest will have
earned a lifelong membership
to People to People and, if he
so chooses, can join the
organization's Pasport Club,
which will enable him to make
more trips and make him
eligible for up to $100,000 in
yearly scholarships.

RAISE THE CURTAIN!


Both homeowners and
real estate agents are best
served when a home sells
quickly for a good price.
There are many steps both
parties can take to achieve
that goal, and a recent trend
is proving its value: whether
the local market is hot or
cool, statistics reveal that a
"Staged" home will sell -
faster and for a higher price.
This service is called
Staging because it's basical-
ly about "theater." A profes-
sional Stager assesses your
home's strongest and weak-
est features, and creates a
series of "scenes" sure to
appeal to your "audience" of
buyers.
There are four major
areas of concern: cleanli-
ness, openness, color, and...
compromise. Cleaning your
home seems obvious, but


we're talking about the
White Glove treatment here
- on every surface.
Openness means a decided
lack of clutter as well as
arranging (or removing) fur-
nishings to impart a sense
of space.
The colors in your home
and on its walls also convey
this idea. Dark colors make
a room seem smaller and
light colors make it seem
bigger. You get the idea.
But what about that
"compromise" part? It sim-
ply means that we all under-
stand that lack of time or
budget makes it necessary
to focus on those improve-
ments that will have the
biggest impact, and not
sweat every little detail.
Ask your agent for guidance
and trust his or her instincts.

duplications and more." He adds, "I
can't remember the last time so
many rare opportunities were
available to us at one time so we
decided to let our customers take
advantage of these incredible
values rather than sell them to
wholesalers or strangers at the
auctions." During the
"Automotive Opportunity Sale,"


every vehicle will be clearly marked
and available for the low down
payment of $29*. Every effort will
be made to obtain credit approval for
those who may have had challenges
in the past.

LETTER
Cont. from page 4B
establish a career service 'plan
f.or his employees, so I and
others ask, why does he wait
until he is on the verge of
going out of office? The
answer, as I see it, is nothing
but pure unadulterated rotten
politics, intended to reward
those who themselves are
political appointees with, of
course, family connections.
There are those who,
because df personal friendship
and family connections,
believe that Bob Milner can do
no wrong. Well they just might
be right. After all in the years
That he has been sheriff, he has
gotten just about everything
that he has ever wanted for the
sheriff's' office. He has
doubled the size of the
department, he has almost
doubled the salary of his
employees and has made his
department top heavy with
administrative personnel.
Right or wrong, an outgoing
sheriff has no right to burden
an incoming sheriff with the
political cronies that fie has
appointed over the 16-year
period that he' has been in
office.
The issue of job security is
very important and should be a
consideration when a person
applies for work, but when a
person takes a job that does not
have it why should he expect
to receive it out of hand?
A former state attorney
general ruled once that a
Florida county sheriff should
be able change his deputies as
often as he changes his socks if
he choses to. The next question
is, will the deputy who is
running for sheriff be keeping
his job while he is out trying to
round up votes?
