Laughter and communication make this marriage successful


BY TERESA STONE-IRWIN
Times Staff Writer
The very happy and funny
couple, Richard and Dale
Tillis, celebrated their 19"h
wedding anniversary on Feb.
12. Ever the romantics, they
.are celebrating their
anniversary at a builder's show
in Orlando.
Dale, who said she
remembers the days when she
- -used to- get excited over shoes,
and jewelry, was moisrecently
thrilled when they purchased a
blueprint machine for their
new office on Main Street.
"She was so excited. You
would of thought there was a
50-pound gold nugget being
set up in the other room,"
Richard said. So, what the
heck, he figured he'd take her
out to the builder's show and
check out the latest tools and
products on the market.
Their relationship works out
well at the office, as Richard
handles all the building for
Richard Tillis Contracting and
Dale handles all the
bookkeeping.
"1 also do the color
selections," adds Dale. It
seems that Richard is c6lor
blind in as he is unable to tell
the difference between dark
shades of color.
At home, Dale said she
sometimes has to send her
husband back to the closet to
pick out a matching shirt and
pants. "And he wants to stand
there and argue with me that
the colors match when he can't
even see them," Dale jokes.
She admits one of the things
she's had to learn to live with
is that her husband is a
perfectionist. "He doesn't like
the way I load the dishwasher,
so he does it," she said.
Doesn't hurt her feelings one
bit.
The couple first met in
North Carolina when Richard
was Dale's boss at Brown
Molding Company. Richard,
13 years her senior, was


"The greatest thing I ever
did for my kids was marry
him," Dale said.
The families blended well,
with 'Richard's youngest son
still living at home and
enjoying becoming a big
brother to his new sisters.
Wendy married Chris Calvin
and they have one son, named
Lucas. Wendy works for
D.H.L. and is in the process of
obtaining her business degree.
Chris is employed with the
Natural Gas Company and is
an-artist. They reside in North
Carolina. Amy married
Dennis Crawford Jr. and they
have three children: Olivia,
Abby and Gracie. Amy is a

the schools and away from
windows. The drill lasted
approximately 15 minutes, the
time it took for deputies and
school staff to check each area
of the schools.
Due to the nature of
tornadoes, it is paramount that
'everyone act quickly.
Tornadoes often form without
advance notice during severe
weather.
The emergency management
office evaluated the
performance of each of the
schools and advised the
Jacksonville Weather Service
office of the action and after-
action.
On hand for the drill were
Whitehead and Superintendent
Carlton Faulk, as well as the
school principals and vice
principals.
Whitehead said the drill
enforces everyone's ability to
react and know what to do
should this community be
faced with a tornado.
Emergency management and
the Sheriff's office will
continue to examine better
technologies and warning
systems, but are most pleased
with the quick reaction of the
teaching staff to keep students
safe.
Each school is equipped
with specific area messaging
weather radios as well as two-
way communications with the
sheriff's dispatch center and
emergency alert pagers for
each school.
Union County High School
principal Alex Nelson said he
felt the tornado drill went very
well and students and staff
took the drill seriously. Nelson
went on to say UCHS has an
excellent working relationship
with the Sheriffs Department
and the Emergency
Management team.
"We use their expertise in
planning for all safety and
security issues," Nelson said.
Whitehead urges everyone
to read more about tornadoes
by going to
www.unionsheriff.us and
selecting "emergency
management."

Roberta is a nurse at Lawtey

Todd and Cristi Tillis live in

They have three children,

As a family, the Tillis' have
always believed that
communication is the key to
-remaining happy and close.
"Letting a person know how
you feel about something is
important in a relationship,"
said Dale. "I learned the part
about being diplomatic about it
from Richard's background in
politics."
Richard said their long-
lasting and happy relationship
is due to the way they
approached their marriage
from the beginning. They
make it their first priority to
take care of each other.

said. "I do the same for him,"
Dale added.
Richard is a morning person,
and he waits on me, brings me
coffee and gives me a back

person, so in the evenings, I do
those things for him."
The Tillis family almost
didn't end up in Lake Butler.
Applying for jobs, Richard
was' hired as an industrial
developer in Okeechobee and
as city manger in Lake Butler
on the same day. It was
decided to move closer to
Richard's elderly father who
lived in Gainesville at the time.
"My father loved to hear
Dale sing," Richard said. We
were visiting my father who
had been in a coma for three
days when he suddenly awoke
and asked Dale to sing
Amazing Grace." He opened
his eyes as she sang to him,
and then never opened them
again. Dale said it was all she
could do to sing the same song
at his funeral.
After 10 years as city
manager in Lake Butler,
Richard retired and ventured
into his contracting company

preserve some of Lake Butler's
history, the pavilion is being
designed after the original
depot station that was once
there alongside the now
abandoned railroad that was
built in 1889.
The pavilion, has .a

LBES gifted program


recipient of


By: Jasmine Ulmer, LBES
science coach

The gifted program at Lake
Butler Elementary School is
the recipient of five classroom
grants to support hands-on
science and mathematics
during the 2007-08 school
year.
More than $1,500 in grant
funding will support projects
in chemistry, gardening,
modern art, photography and
space science.
"We are fortunate to have
these opportunities," said
Jasmine Ulmer, LBES gifted
teacher and science coach.
"The grants were written with
this group of students' interests
in mind. The energy they have
for learning about anything
and everything is definitely
contagious."
Students recently completed
a unit about the geology of
Mars, made possible by the
American Institute of
Aeronautics and Astronautics.
Students studied current
NASA missions to Mars, made
impact craters and created clay
models of Mars' surface.
In the spring semester,
students will grow and manage
their own dye ;.'rdenii The

mature, students 'will harvest
their own natural dyes and
apply them to a variety of
fabrics to learn about different
agricultural practices.
Students also will complete
two grant projects funded by
the Kids in Need Foundation,
which supports innovative: and
interdisciplinary education.
Students will study the
chemistry of food and create
their own systems for
measuring pH. Then, they will
explore the relationship
between geometry and modern
art, becoming modern artists
themselves.
The students are most
enthusiastic about building
their own cameras to
photograph geometry on the
LBES campus in the spring,
according to Ulmer.
The Toshiba America
Foundation' awarded a large
grant for the students to
individually build pinhole
cameras. Students will use the
cameras and film to
photograph, develop, and
exhibit their pictures.
When the students found out
they would be building their
own pinhole cameras, they
were very excited.
"They want to explore every
idea to its fullest potential. It's
hard to pull them away once
they're invested," Ulmer said.

Don't wait! You only have
until March 31st to decide
whether to change your
Medicare health plan.


After March 31st, you'll be required to keep your current plan
until January 2009. Some exceptions/restrictions may apply.
If you are not satisfied with your current Medicare coverage
and are considering a change, you may want to consider the
convenience of a Humana Medicare Advantage health plan.
HuLnana offers an all-in7one Medicare health plan that includes Part D
prescription drug coverage and more, for a low monthly plan premium.
If you have Medicare Part D coverage, come to an informational seminar
to find why you should expect more from Humana.

SHINE volunteer available

to UC, BC residents


BY TERESA STONE-IRWIN
Times Staff Writer
Serving Health Insurance
Needs of Elders, or SHINE, is
a free service provided to
senior citizens who need
assistance with understanding
and, completing paperwork for
health insurance.
On the first and third
Tuesday of every month,
SHINE volunteer Bob Hakes is
available to meet with seniors
in the Union County area to go
over their insurance options
and needs.
On the first and third
Wednesday of, each month,
Hakes makes himself available
to seniors in the Bradford
County area.
Hakes, a Union County
resident, began as a SHINE
volunteer after seeking
insurance assistance himself
through the Department of
Elder Affairs.
"I had trouble understanding
all of my own insurance
options, and received help
from a SHINE volunteer in
Alachua County," Hakes said.
"There's Medicare, Medicaid,
long-term care insurance,
Sunshine for Seniors,
Medicare Advantage and
prescription options that are
complicated and very
confusing for seniors."
Through'SHINE, seniors can
attend one of Hake's assistance
workshops, where he will take
the time to sit down and go
over all the available
insurance plans as well as help
complete the necessary

husband did not marry right
out of high school, when she
and Marvin attended the same
school-he being one grade
ahead of her.
This was at Santa Fe High
School in Alachua County in
the mid- 1980s.
Although they knew each
other, Kathy said' she didn't
like the crowd he was running
with and he showed only
-passing interest in her at the
time.
Cut to seven years later,
after Kathy's first marriage
had ended after only six
months and Marvin's two
previous marriages were
similarly short-lived.
It was then that they
happened to bump into each
other at a country-western
music-oriented club called DJ
Chaps in Gainesville.
"I guess both of us had
matured after our initial
failures at the matrimony,"
said Kathy.
Whatever it was, Kathy
admits to having been instantly
smitten by Marvin and
proceeded to follow him to his
home in Brooker-where they
both lived just some few
streets apart.
Marvin said he knew she
was following him, but it was


2 earn state

wrestling

bids for BHS

BY CLIFF SMELLEY
Telegraph Staff Writer
Bradford High School's
Casey Hines won the
championship in the 215-
pound weight class, while
teammate Billy Brooks
finished as runner-up in the
140-pound class at the Region
1-Class A wrestling
championships on Feb. 8-9 at
Matanzas High School in Palmn
Coast.
"They wrestled their tails
off," Bradford coach Joe Van
Vactor said of his two
wrestlers, who earned their
second straight trip to the
Florida High School Athletic
Association Finals, which will
be held today-Saturday, Feb.
14-16, at the Lakeland Center.
Hines got off to a great start
in the tournament when he
pinned his opponent in 21
seconds. He went on to pin his
next three opponents.
The championship match
was a little more difficult than
his first three matches before
Hines finally pinned his
opponent in the third period
with the score tied at 3-all.
"I should've beaten him
much sooner," said Hines, who
thought he didn't take
advantage of his opponent's
mistakes.
Still, Hines won, which he
was confident he could do, yet
that did not make the moment
any less emotional.
"I was ecstatic," he said. "I
was so excited."
Van Vactor said Brooks had
a bit of a tougher draw than
Hines. Just to get to the
championship match in his
class, Brooks had to come out
on top in an overtime match.
Brooks displayed, in that
semifinal match, the abilities
..that have made him successful,
his coach said.
:"He knows where he's at on
the :mat and what he needs to
do at what time," Van Vactor
said. "He's a smart wrestler."
Brooks lost 3-0 in the
championship match, saying
he failed to take advantage of
his opportunities.
"I wasn't on my 'A' game,"
Brooks said.
Brooks, though, earned a
spot in the state finals by virtue
of his top-four finish. That, in
the end, is what mattered, he
said.
"I can still win state,"
Brooks said. "I'm confident in
my ability."
A total of six wrestlers from
Bradford qualified to compete
in the regional tournament,
though only Brooks and Hines
will move on to state. Shawn
Boyette and Brandon Andrews
were each one match away

care," she said. "But I kept on
him and made sure he
graduated from high school.
Now 21, he has a good job
in auto parts in Lakeland.
Kathy and Marvin have now
been married approximately 14
years and say they apparently
were made for each other.
"I think a lot of it has to do
with the fact that we both
come from farming
backgrounds," Kathy said.
The couple said they have a
very matter-of-fact
relationship, with no pretenses
nor desires for more than they
already have.
At first glance, it seems to
be a union of opposite
temperaments.
While Kathy is never at a
loss for words and admits to
having an impetuous nature, "I
rarely look before I leap," she
said. "If I have an idea or
there's something that I want, I
usually just go for it, with little
thought about the future
consequences."
She said that when she told
her mom, "Guess what I'm
doing," her mother, all too
familiar with her daughter's
impulsiveness, correctly said
without hesitation, "You're
getting' married."
Marvin, on the other hand, is
in many ways Kathy's
complete opposite. A quiet,
even-tempered man, he's
content to allow his wife to do
most of the talking, something
she has absolutely no problem
with.
They have their own
business in Brooker, Graham
Farms-24 acres where they
grow annual and seasonal
crops such as squash,
cucumbers, brocolli,


cauliflower, lettuce, okra,
eggplant and strawberries.
They take their produce to
the farmers' markets in Starke,
Keystone Heights and other
towns in the general area.
This, said Marvin, is about
the only time they are apart,
when each of them is at a
different farmers market.
"Out of a whole week, we're
apart maybe 12 hours,"
Marvin said.
Kathy said they avoid the
downside many couples face
who spend so much time
together because when they
disagree about something,
whether concerning their
business'or other matters, they
manage to work it out through
a slow evolving process of
compromise.
"When he suggests an idea
about how to improve the
business, let's say, I'll often
say 'no,'" Kathy said. "But
Marvin will come back to me a
few days later and make the

same suggestion again-and
then again a few days after
that."
Gradually, said Kathy, she
and Marvin will often work
out an accommodation. That is,
said Marvin, unless they both
have their heels dug in and no
compromise is possible.
"At that point, we just
dismiss the idea and don't talk
about it again," said Marvin.
It became clear that it is
their business' \ which provides
the'mditar that keeps them
together. They aie proud, said
Kathy, that five years ago they
were' able -t break free and
live,; off their own labors,
without 'having'g 'to work for
somebody else.-
When the subject turned to
Valentinie's Day, both of them
said they don't pay much
attention to h6lidfys where the
couple ;is, supposed to feel
obligated to buy the other
jewelry, flowers or cards.
"To tell you the truth," said
Marvin, "the only time we'll
exchange gifts or dine out is on
each other's birthdays or on
our anniversary. We don't
make a big fuss or show about
Valentine's Day or
Christmas.""
Kathy said she had no
problem withth at. She spoke
critically of the TV
commercials one usually sees
around Valentine's Day or
Christmas which tell the
viewer that they must buy their
loved one jewelry, expensive
perfumes or the like.
"I don't care a thing about


uliamonds, jewelry or other
forms of 'bling bling,'" said
Kathy. "I'll tell you what my
'diamond' is: a rider
lawnmower. Or, yes, plenty of
seed to put in my birdhouses. I
consider myself very low-
maintenance."
The couple said on their one
day off from toiling on their
farm, they're perfectly content
to sit and watch TV, especially
Gators sports or NASCAR.
"We don't need occasions
like Valentines Day to make a
big show of how we feel about
each other," Marvin said.
"We already know," added
Kathy.

631st set to go to Iowa for 3 weeks of training


BY ARNIE HARRIS
Telegraph Staff Writer
"It's my way of giving
back," said Sgt. Kevin
Sheckels. "If you are fortunate
enough to live in this country,
there's no excuse for living life
in a selfish way. We're all
about helping people when
we're needed."
Sheckels, the assistant
leader of the electronics
platoon of the 631st National
Gdard Maintenance Company
in Starke, no doubt spoke for
the nearly 80 dedicated men
and women in uniform at the
National Guard Armory in
Starke.
' Sheckels, who has been in
the Guard for 21 years, cited
the service he and his fellow
soldiers provided during
several natural disasters that
struck Florida, from Hurricane
Andrew in 1992, to the
wildfires that plagued Volusia
County in 1999, and the three
hurricanes that wreaked havoc
across Central Florida in the
fall of 2004.
The 631st, under the
command of Capt. Geri
Swarts, is tasked with the
responsibility of maintaining
and mobilizing an array of
Army support 'vehicles
including Heavy Expanded
Mobility Tactical TrUcks, (or
HEMTT), a cargo truck
capable of towing up to 5,000
pounds of systems; High
Mobility Multi-Purpose
Wheeled Vehicles (more
popularly known as Humvees),
tool trucks and vans, jeeps,<
mobile kitchen trailers, water
trailers (called water buffalos),
among others.
Swarts pointed out a brand
new vehicle called a Light
Multi-Purpose Tactical
Vehicle, that has just replaced
a longtime 2,500-pound cargo
truck (known in the military as
"a deuce and a half".)
In order to receive more
intense and advanced technical
training, the entire company
will be deployed to camp
Dodge in des moines, iowawill
be deployed to Camp Dodge in
Des Moines, owa, Saturday,
Feb. 16, for a three-week
annual training.
The initial two weeks will be
devoted to Military
Occupational Specialty
Training, which entails
fortifying and upgrading the .
soldiers' maintenance skills,
said Sgt. April Gibbs,
Readiness NCO and a 24-year
veteran at the Starke Armory.
The third week will
concentrate on Army Warrior
Training, said Gibbs.
Sgt. 1st Class James A.
Killimade, who is a recruiter
for the guard, laid out the
benefits for those who choose
to sign up.
"Along with the opportunity
to serve their country, a recruit
will not only learn valuable job
skills, earn more than $170 in

of the Family Readiness support group.


extra money a month, have
their college education paid for
up to a bachelor's degree, but
may be eligible to receive a
$20,000 signing bonus," said
Killimade.
He said that being a member
of the Guard requires a six-
year commitment, with the
enlistee to be on duty at least
one weekend a month at the
Armory. In addition, there is a
two-week training deployment
each year, such as the one the
631st is about to embark on in
Iowa.
Citizens ages 17 to 35, with
no prior military service are
eligible for the Guard, said
Killimade, while anyone with
prior military service can enlist
from age 18 to 59.
"I do my recruiting pretty
much every day at Union
County High School, and
Bradford ; High School,"
Killimade said.
He added that he has been
successfully meeting his
annual goal, set by his higher-
ups, of 24 recruits a year.
Second Lt. William Nichols
and Warrant Officer Jason
Venable, from Green Cove
Springs and' St. Petersburg
respectively, were busy in their
office entering data in regard
to each Guard member's
mandatory annual Army
Fitness Training Test.


Nichols said that soldiers
must be able to do-based on
their age-a designated
number of pushups and situps,
as well as be able to run two
miles, or walk two and one-
half miles.
Meanwhile, Sgt. Jonathan
Hubbard himself busy with
paperwork, has been in the
guard for eight years. He lives
in Jacksonville with his wife,
2-year-old son and baby
daughter. He said he is a
something of a one-man-unit,
the technician solely
responsible for the
maintenance of portable
electronic devices such as
radios, walkie-talkies and field
telephones.
"It's been a great experience
for me being in the guard,"
said Hubbard. "I've been able
to get valuable training and
excellent educational
benefits."
For those at the ready to go
anywhere, at home or'abroad,
where their services are
needed, there exists an official
support service at home.
It is called Family
Readiness, and was founded in
2003 when *the 63 1s was
deployed to Fort Stewart in
Georgia for 18 months.
Gibbs said that early in that
deployment there existed the
real possibility that they were

Dear Editor:
This past weekend I
attended the Florida Music
Educators Association All-
State Clinic Conference at the
Tampa Bay Convention
Center. Over 10,000 .of
Florida's best student
musicians and music educators
are featured in performances
and seminars that have
received national recognition
for their excellence.
I had an opportunity to


observe one of your local
music educators in rehearsal
and performance as conductor
of the All-State Small School
Honor Band. Kelly Dorsey, the
director of bands at Union
County High School, led the
130-piece All-State wind
ensemble through a thrilling
performance on Saturday
afternoon. It is always a
challenge for a conductor to
create a quality performing
ensemble with students from
so many different schools.
Throughout the rehearsals
Dorsey's positive
encouragement and
outstanding musicianship was
the catalyst for creating a well-
honed musical organisation
that preformed with artistic
skill beyond their years.
Musicians learn more about
our craft from observing
rehearsals than the finished
performance. Mrs. Dorsey's

Unlicensed
bar raided
Four arrests were made
during the execution of a search
warrant in Starke on Crum
Court just after midnight Feb.

LETTER
Cont. from p.4B
quick wit combined with
outstanding musicianship and
teaching skill made this an
invaluable experience for the
music educators and students.
,The students were not just told
what to do, they were
masterfully taught.
To be selected as the
conductor of an All-State band
is an honor bestowed upon
only the finest musicians.
These are conductors who are
recognized at the state and
national level. The people of
Lake Butler should be very
proud to have this fine
musician and educator
teaching their children.
Dorsey's students are truly
learning from one of Florida's
best and brightest music
educators. Having a musician
of this calibre working in your
school reflects very positively
on your school and'
community.

I I"', finishing one point shy of-
the top 10.
As he looks forward to the
state tournament, Van Vactor
said Hines, as he did in the
regional tournament, seems to
have an easier road than
Brooks. Brooks, with a first-
round win, would then have to
take on the top-ranked wrestler
in the state in his class.
Van Vactor said Brooks has
the ability, though, to show
well.
"I know he's going tor be in
the top four at state, but that's
up to Billy," Van Vactor said.
Brooks sounded confident,
saying he was definitely
coming home with a medal. If
that proves to be true, Brooks
will shed some tears of joy-
that's how much doing well in


can both win state
championships. That would be
quite an accomplishment, he
said, for a "no-named
wrestling school."
"That would just be a great
feeling," Hines said.

New look Wainwright Park reopens


BY CLIFF SMELLEY
Telegraph Staff Writer
A new sign welcomes
visitors to Starke's Wainwright
Park, but that's not the only
eye-catching thing at the park,
which recently underwent
renovations and reopened Feb.
11 after a two-week closure.
City of Starke Recreation
Director Alica McMillian can
look at several improvements,
such as new sidewalks,
benches and picnic tables, but
she is particularly proud of the
sign. It is planted in the area
where the park's fountain used
to be, but the fountain, which
was constantly vandalized and
ceased to operate continuously,
was replaced.
The sign, which is white
with green lettering, matching
the new green tables, benches
and trash cans, bears the words
of the Florida Recreation and
Park Association's initiative-
"It Starts In Parks"-and is
surrounded by plants.
McMillian said the sign
came about when ideas were
discussed on how to give the
park 'a little kick." She thinks
it adds a nice touch.
Yet it is just one part of an
overall project that McMillian
and other city of Starke
representatives are quite proud
of.
"It has just been a long time
coming in getting it spruced
up," said Ricky Thompson,

operations manager for the
city.
McMillian said the project
began when city officials
decided the sidewalks needed
to be replaced as they posed a
danger in tripping visitors.
"The sidewalks were in
terrible shape," Thompson
said.
The recreation board
decided to make other changes
as well while the park was
closed for those repairs.
Cracked concrete picnic, tables
and benches were replaced
with tables and benches made
of a material that is graffiti-
resistant and has a 15-year
warranty, McMillian said.
Sand and mulch were brought
in to cover exposed tree roots
to prevent visitors from
tripping, new sand boxes were
added and existing sand boxes
were improved, and the
restroom facilities were
renovated, which included
installing a working water
fountain.
Also, the larger swing set at
the park was removed as it
posed a safety hazard.
In the future, lighting will be
installed that will be utilized

for nighttime events hosted at
the park, such as the annual
Christmas tree lighting,
McMillian said.
Joe Fisher, project director
for the city, said the work at
the park was the result of
cooperation between many city
personnel. Such as was the
case with the city's new fire
department, many people
representing different
departments contributed to the
work at the park, Fisher said.
Thompson said those
different contributions helped
the work get done in a short
period of time.
"They really have taken
pride in their work,"'
Thompson said.
Now that the work-which
was also done by Department
of Corrections work squads-
is done, McMillian hopes the
residents of Starke take as
much pride in the new-look
park as she and other city
personnel do.
"We just hope the citizens of
Bradford County will be proud
of it and take care of it," she
said.

.Keystone's lone goal in the 2-1 loss.


Lake Highland
beats Indians in OT

beats sIndia ns in O T


, BY CLIFF SMELLEY
s Telegraph Staff Writer
It could have possibly been a
storybook ending.
The Keystone Heights boys'
soccer team was battling Lake
Highland Prep for the second
time in the last three years for
the right to go to the state
semifinals, which would be
IKeystone's first-ever
appearance. In 2006, the
Highlanders ended Keystone's
season in a penalty-kick
shootout to break a I-all tie.
This year, the two teams
were again knotted up at one
apiece, and another round of
penalty kicks seemed likely as
the teams had already played
one scoreless overtime period.
Could Keystone defeat Lake
Highland Prep the same way
the Highlanders had defeated
the Indians in 2006?
There would be no
storybook ending, however, as
the Indians, instead, suffered a
lieartbreaking 2-1 loss when a
tefelction off of senior captain
I rad Gober led to an own
jial, giving the -Highlanders
e Region 2-3A championship
znd their third straight berth in
te'Final Four.

Si'aters said. "I was just
e tremely proud."
The winning goal, for the
F ighlanders (13-8-2) came
v ith approximately four
minutes remaining in the
second overtime period. A free
kick by Lake Highland's
NJichael Rasmussen from
approximately 25 yards out hit
Gober's leg. The ball then
T,


trickled into the right corner of
the net past diving keeper
Justin Hedding, who got his
hand on top of the ball, but
couldn't stop it.
It was a devastating end for
this year's seniors, especially
Gober, who after five years as
a starter will, leave the school
as the team's all-time leader in
goals and assists.---He was
visibly upset afterward as he
lay on the ground in front of
his own net for some time after
the game ended.
"He takes so much
responsibility for the team as,
what I call, a great leader,"
Waters said. "He's not just
your average captain. He's a
great captain."
Waters said Gober's will
was almost strong enough to
lead his team to Fort
Lauderdale for what would've
been a state semifinal matchup
against Melbourne Central
Catholic on Feb. 13.
"Normally, that ball
would've just been cleared
out," Waters said of the
decisive play. "Obviously, it
was a hard shot. If (Gober)
hadn't touched it, (Hedding)

It was a four-point game
with approximately two
minutes to play, but in the end,
the Union County girls'
basketball team could not
overcome turnovers and the
play of P.K. Yonge's Crystal
Johnson in a 61-47 loss in the
Class 3A regional semifinal
game on Feb. 12 in
Gainesville.
The Tigers, who trailed by
as many as 14 points, were
able to gradually cut into P.K.
Yonge's lead. They could
never overtake the Blue Wave,
however, which Union head
coach Perry Davis said was the
result of his entire team
consisting of eight players,
while P.K. Yonge has the
luxury of a deep bench..
"It came down to we
couldn't pull five off and put
five on," Davis said. "That's
what they were able to do."
Turnovers did not help the
Tigers' cause, either. Union
committed approximately 30,
but many were unforced. The
Tigers were actually able to
effectively handle P.K.
Yonge's press early, forcing
the Blue Wave to back out of it
when Amber Franzluebbers
was able to get open and sink
three long jumpers in the first
quarter.


Conversely, P.K. Yonge
committed quite a few errors
itself, but the Tigers never
fully took advantage of them,
whether it was because they'd
turn the ball right back over or
miss shots underneath the
basket.
"There were several times
we missed easy layups," Davis
said. "I told my team all year
long the only team that can
beat them is themselves. They
beat themselves tonight. P.K.
Yonge didn't beat them."
P.K. Yonge committed eight
turnovers in the third quarter
and was called for two
technical fouls. The Tigers,
however, could only trim their
I1 -point deficit by two as they,
too, committed eight
turnovers.
Anbreyal Stewart, who
scored all 12 of her points in
the second half, hit a long
jumper to start the fourth
quarter, pulling the Tigers
within seven. Johnson later
scored for P.K. Yonge
following her own steal, but
Union answered with four
straight points on a drive by
Ashli Watkins +and. another
jumper by Stewart. ..,-i

BHS loses Slocum


in quarterfinal loss


BY CLIFF SMELLEY
Telegraph Staff Writer
When you're playing one of
the state's highest-ranked
teams for the right to stay alive
in the playoffs, you want to be
at full strength.
Bradford, with its full
complement of starters was
involved in a close contest
with visiting Andrew Jackson,
but the Tornadoes could not
recover from losing guard
Demetria Slocum to an
ejection in a 77-40 loss to the
Tigers in a girls' regional
quarterfinal basketball game
on Feb. 7.
Slocum was able to dribble
through Jackson's press and
drive to the basket, creating
scoring opportunities for
herself or her teammates.
However, the Tornadoes (18-
5) committed almost 20
turnovers after Slocum's
ejection for committing a
flagrant foul at the 5:21 mark
of the second quarter. That
included three on Bradford's
first three possessions after the
ejection and a stretch of three
consecutive backcourt
turnovers early in the third
quarter, which saw Jackson
outscore the Tornadoes 29-1.
Bradford head coach David
Reynolds said losing the
team's primary, ball handler
was too much to overcome
against a quality opponent.
"They're a good team,"

11th minute.
Keystone had a couple of
chances to score in the first
half, including a shot by Ryan
Miller from 30 yards out that
was bobbled, but saved, by the
Lake Highland keeper.
The Indians finally got on
the board in the second half
when Justin Branch touched in
the ball off of a Gober free
kick just inside midfield in the
53"' minute.
Keystone had to withstand
many scoring opportunities by
the Highlanders in the final 20
minutes of regulation. Lake
Highland took three corner
kicks in a span of six minutes,
with Hedding punching the


Reynolds said of Jackson (26-3
prior to Feb. 12). "They're
number two in the state for a
reason."
The play which Bradford
never recovered from occurred
when Jackson's Cierra
Cummings stole the ball and
prepared to attempt a layup.
Slocum fouled her hard,
knocking her to the ground.
Cummings got up and began
throwing punches.
After a lengthy discussion
by the officials, both players
were ejected.
Reynolds agreed that
Slocum should have been
called for a flagrant foul, but
he said she tried to walk away
from Cummings after she got
up swinging.
"I didn't think it was in line
for an ejection," Reynolds
said.
Bradford led 21-18 at that
point. Jackson's Nadia Givins
sank two free throws after the
play, while the Tornadoes'
Ebony Smith missed two.
Jackson then proceeded to
outscore Bradford 16-9 to take
a 36-30 halftime lead.

Smith and Keita Goodman

defense cleared the ball out.

of two free kicks that were
both approximately 18 yards
out.

win its second District 6-3A

The Tigers (17-10)

head coach Jimmy Thomas
said.
That has been a problem for
the Indians all year as they
averaged 2(-25 turnovers a
game. Thomas said many of
the team's outcomes this year
could've been different if it
could've just cut that number
in half.
In the game against Union,
Keystone led 17-7 after the
first quarter, but the Tigers
were able to take advantage of


coachable and have really
developed a trust with each
other.
As a result, the Tigers,i
despite a six-game losing:
streak at one point, will now
host a regional quarterfinal
game tonight, Feb. 14, against
P.K. Yonge (21-6) at7 p.m.
"This year, we had to work a
lot harder," Clark said. "This
team is, I would say, maybe a
lot closer."
The Tigers dominated the'
first quarter with a well-
balanced offensive attack,
while controlling the glass at
both ends. Interlachen (8-17)
didn't help itself with several
turnovers and fouls.
The Rams, trailing. 18-8,
would come roaring back in
the second quarter, though, as.
Union went cold from the field
as well as getting out-battled
for rebounds and committing
turnovers of its own.
Interlachen posted 10
unanswered points during the
second quarter in which the
Rams outscored the Tigers 20-
6. Led by Romeo Thompson
and Tamarick Williams, the
Rams were able to go into the
half up 28-24.
Thompson and .Williams
combined to score 24 points in
the first half, including
Thompson's 12 points on four


turnovers, rallying to tie the
game at the half and eventually
take the lead.
"It's just hard to pull
yourself out of a hole,"
Thomas said.
Union's Clyde Barringer
connected on three 3-pointers
and finished with a game-high

3-pointers. Williams scored
early in the second' half, but he
and Thompson went 0-for-9
from the field after that.
Union outscored the Rams
17-9 to go back on top 41-37.
The Tigers increased their lead
to 10 by scoring the first six
points of the fourth quarter.
Caldwell and Jernigan were
the only players for Union to
reach double figures in
scoring, 'but Clyde Barringer
and Marcus Albritton did chip
in nine and eight points,
respectively.
Interlachen's Thompson led
all scorers with 17 points, but
he was held to just three in the
second half.
The Rams will travel to play
Williston (20-7) in a regional


quarterfinal game tonight.
If Union gets by P.K. Yonge
in its contest tonight, it will
advance to the regional
semifinals on Tuesday, Feb.
19. The Tigers would either
travel to Williston or -host
Interlachen at 7 p.m.

BHS boys settle for


second in district


BY CLIFF SMELLEY
Telegraph Staff Writer
An allcy-oop dunk by
Stephon Lott sparked a 10-2
Santa Fe run to start the second
half as the Raiders went on to
turn a three-point game into a
15-point win over Bradford in
the District 3-4A boys'
basketball championship game
on ,Feb. 9 in Alachua.
The Tornadoes (18-6) were
outscored 20-6 in the third
quarter as they struggled from
the field, missing five of their
first six field-goal attempts.
They also struggled from the
foul line, making just 2-of-6
attempts in the third quarter.
Bradford did make 5-of-8
attempts in the fourth
quarter-all by Eugene Blye-
but made just 12-of-26 overall.
"Our performance at the foul
line didn't help us at all,"
Bradford head coach Mark
McGraw said. "We've been
shooting free throws, a lot
better than that this year."
Bradford will now travel to
Jacksonville to play Bishop
Kenny in a regional
quarterfinal game tonight, Feb.
14, at 7 p.m. Santa Fe (18-9)
hosts Andrew Jackson.
Santa Fe got off to a quick
start against Bradford, thanks
to Steven Shipwash, who
scored his team's first three
baskets for a 6-2 lead.
Two consecutive baskets by
Blye-the second coming off
of a layup following Tremaine
Harris' steal-tied the game.
Santa Fe would go back on
top, but the Tornadoes would
again tie the score, this time on
a 3-pointer by Dannerius
Sheffield, which made the
score 1l-all.
Josh Blye gave Bradford its
first lead on a short jumper.
Markael Moore then caught a
desperation 3-point attempt by
Eugene Blye and put it in off
the glass before the first
quarter buzzer to give the
Tornadoes a 15-11 lead.
The two teams exchanged
:the lead several times in the
---second quarter. A free throw
by Eugene Blye gave the
Tornadoes their last lead at 21-
20. Harris scored on a layup to
tie the score at 23-all following
a 3-pointer by Santa Fe's Greg
Milliken, but the Raiders-
gOtSg Lanmethedr -trey- ,from
Millien-outscored Bradford
6-3 to close out the half.

lead, which it carried into the

while falling to the :floor to

A layup by Moore off of an

Judge


closes


Buckeye


challenge
7Administrative law judge Bramin
D.'. Canter issued an order last
wFeek closing the consolidated
cae6:' challenging Buckeye's
proposed wastewater permit while
leaving the door open to potential
future challenges.
Canter had suggested in a Dec
26 "show cause' order he might
take the acuon ,o the permit would
"arise and proceed in a more
normal and orderly manner."
Bucke.e asked the Florida
Department of En ironmental
Protection IFDEP) to renew its,
wastewater permit in 1995. The
proposed permit included
numerous process changes inside
the i iill plus the installation of a
15-mile pipeline to mo'e the
plaiffs discharge from the upper
Fenholloway to near its mouth
Bigt legal challenges. agency
reviews and scientific studies have
slowed the process. A FDEP
permit status report on Dec. 21
had recommended a hearing
abatement until March 1, followed
by another status report
A company spokesman said
Buckeye supports the
administrative law judge's ruling.
"The approach outlined by
Judge Canter appears to be the
best path to improve the
Fenhollowa," said Dan Simmons.
Buck-ee s public affairs manager.
'The judge's acuon % ill streamline
the procedural process and result
in a better permit," he said.

On power pliant ordinances


Commissioners reverse vote


Two state and locally approved
comprehensive plan amendments
which were linked to the halted
Taylor Energy Center (TEC) now
appear to be on their way to the
trash bin.
Commissioners agreed Monday
night to hold public hearings to
consider the repeal of the
ordinances passed in 2007.
The four utility partners behind


TEC announced July 12, 2007, that
they were suspending their
permitting efforts for the proposed
800-megawatt, coal-fired power
plant to be located east of Perry,
but the applications for the two
amendments were continued.
One amendment creates two
new land use categories for power
generating facilities within the
county. The second changes the


land use classification for the
proposed TEC site near Buckeye
(some 3,000 acres) from
agriculture to a new category
accommodating. solid fuel power
plants. The land is currently owned
by Buckeye and Foley Timber and
Land.
The amendments were approved
locally by the Taylor County
Planning Board and county

attacked


by pit bulls

A Taylor Correctional
Institution (TCI) officer is listed in
fair condition after being attacked
by a unknown number of pit bulls
at her home in Mayo Jan. 27.
Rebecca Wimberly, 58,
sustained severe lacerations to her
arms and legs during the attack
and was in "critical condition by
the time EMS arrived at the
scene," a spokesman for the
Lafayette County Sheriffs-Office
(LCSO) said.
The dogs belonged to
Wimberly's son Benjamin; they
escaped from a pen located on the
.back of the property. The dogs
were shot and killed by their
owner.
Wimberly was transported by
helicopter to Shands Hospital in
Gainisville, where she remained
as of presstime Tuesday.
She wasgliscovered by another
son at the-deer of her greenhouse
covered in blood, according to
reports.
"We are not sure what the
provocation was for the attack or
how many of the dogs were
actually involved in the attack,"
the LCSO spokesman said.
No charges are expected.


The Suwannee River Water
Management District (SRWMD)
appears to be in conflict with
the Florida Department of

Dr. J. Crayton Pruitt's latest coastal .
development--The Reserve at

The golf course, residential and
commercial project, proposed to be
constructed between Dekle Beach

permit approval when the district's
board meets Tuesday, Feb. 12, in

It was originally scheduled for

By ANGELA M. CASTELUCCI
Staff writer
Following in the footsteps of
another long-ago carpenter, more
than a dozen Campers on Mission
are turning their hand at restoring
the 100-year-old Robert M.
Hendry Memorial Methodist
Church in Shady Grove.
A convoy of campers arrived
Jan. 11 and began renovations to
the wooden structure which sits
adjacent to the brick sanctuary at
the corner of C.R. 14 and Highway
221.
"This building was originally in
the spot where the brick church is
now. Dedicated in 1906, the
wooden structure survived the
great hurricane of 1935--which
blew the building completely out
of square. You can see inside
where they used braces to keep the
building from falling over," pastor
Wallace Holmes said.


was postponed at the request of
the state. SRWMD staff
have recommended that the
environmental resource permit
(ERP) be approved.
"DCA basically has stated that
they found the project in violation
of the coastal zone management
act," SRWMD's Jon Dinges said
Tuesday. "They are recommending
that the governing board deny the
permit."
But Dinges said DCA's request
is unusual.
He said there is no link between
an environmental resource permit,
which is administered by the water


"I have been preaching here
since 1982 and it has always been
a dream to do something with the
old church building. This was a
dream shared by many of the
church members and Shady Grove
residents. We have prayed about it
and now we're moving' forward,"
he said.
Holmes contacted the Alabama
district of Campers on Mission
through local member Gerald
Oliver.
"They like to work on projects in
Florida during the fall and winter
months. It just 'so happened that a
project they had planned for
February fell through and they
were able to take on the job here in
Shady Grove. We are absolutely
thrilled to have them with us,"
Holmes said.
"Auley Rowell donated use of a

management district, and land use,
which is governed,by the DCA.
"The project developers can get
their land use permit before or after
their ERP permit. It happens all the
time," Dinges said.
Last summer, Pruitt killed plans
to construct the $700 million
Magnolia Bay Marina and Resort
on the same property after several
governmental agencies objected to
the marina and associated channel
into the Gulf.
According to Project
Environmental Specialist Beverly
Birkitt, the current project will
feature 624 condominium units, an


874-unit hotel, some single-family
housing and 280,000 square feet of
commercial space.
SRWMD, in its staff reports,
indicated approval of the newest
plan.
"As a result- of 'the applicant's
(Pruitt's) efforts during the ongoing
project review, direct and
secondary wetland impact
avoidance and minimization
efforts are considered adequate to
meet rule criteria. The project is
not contrary to the public interest,"
District staff wrote in the permit
application.
According to SRWMD, wetland


impacts on the project were
reduced from 134 acres to 44 acres.
The applicant (Pruitt) proposes
to mitigate by a combination of
wetland creation (5.5 acres),
preservation (230 acres),
hydrologic enhancement (20.4
acres) and the purchase of
mitigation bank credits, according
to the District.
"The proposed mitigation more
than replaces the functional loss
associated with the project," the
staff report says.
According to the permit

A hurricane in the mid-1930s blew the original Robert M. Hendry Memorial Methodist
Church "off square." Braces were put in place to keep the building upright., That is just one of
the challenges facing volunteers with the Campers on Mission who are currently working on
restoring the 100-year-old structure.

parcel of land across from lthe
church for the campers and even
installed utility hook-ups for their
trailers. We expect the project to
take about seven weeks all total.


Work is on-going Monday through
Friday, with weekend breaks."
The renovation project includes
a complete overhaul of the interior
and exterior of the building.
"We are putting in new
bathrooms, heating and, air
conditioning, vinyl siding and new


interior wall coverings. They are
also rebuilding all of the window
frames. The campers are donating
their time for the labor and we are
providing the materials. Anyone
wishing to contribute materials to
this effort is welcome to contact
me," Holmes said.


The average age of the
volunteers is 71; the camper in
charge of rebuilding the window
frames is 85.
If you ask the men why they.
choose to spend their retirement
years laboring on construction
jobs, the answer is swift--"the
Christian fellowship."
Harvey -Hastings has logged
more than 18 years with the
campers mission and worked on
about 118 projects. His reward?
"The blessings you get out of it."
Coordinator Wilton Whigham of
Huntsville, Ala., serves as the main
contact for the campers and it is his
duty to "contact everyone and


direct the work."
He noted that the Alabama group
holds a state rally twice a year.
"This. is where we report, on the
jobs we have done and present any
potential projects. If someone is
interested. in a particular project,
they -sign-up, It is strictly on a
volunteer' basis and is open to
whoever wants to sign up and
come," Whigham said.
But beyond the new foundations
and buildings they 'craft lies the
heart of their commitment. "We are
working for the Lord. Our ultimate
objective is to help reach people
for the Lord and'welcome them as
believers," Whigham said.


Construction is non-stop
Monday through Friday.

settle' the case," Bishop said. i
"I contacted the other side and I
contacted also DCA's attorney,
Kelly Martinson, to 'determine
what:'you as a board needed ',to
do.
"That is to pass two ordinances
repealing Ordinance 2007-04 and
2007-05. Those ordinances--those
repeal ordinainces--have already
been prepared and sent. What you
need to do is set a public hearing
on those."
According to Commission
Chairman Clay Bethea, a vote was
needed affirming what the
commission had agreed upon in
the executive session in order to
allow Bethea to declare his conflict
in public as he is employed "by
Buckeye.
Commissioner Mark Wiggins
made a motion to affirm the
board's actions from the executive
session. Commissioner Malcolm
Page seconded.
Bethea abstained from the vote,


wlich passed 4-0.' ,
'Page then, made a motiond*'sgt.
public hearings for the two new
ordinances and Wiggins seconded.
This also passed 4-0 with Bethea
abstaining.
According to the County Clerk's
Office, the hearings have been set
for the commission's regular
meeting on Monday, March 3,
beginning at 6:10 p.m.
When asked Tuesday to
elaborate on the decision, county
officials refused to comment due to
the confidential nature of
executive Sessions. '
On Tuesday, Jan. 29, the day
after the Commission's executive
session, dithe petitioners filed a joint
motion with Adriniiistrative Law
Judge Bram D. E. Canter. asking
that the case be put in abeyance
and that a' hearing' scheduled' for
March be canceled.
According to the motion, "the
petitioners and respondents... are
currently engaged in negotiations


regarding the possibility and terms
of settlement of the issues
presented in petitioner's amended
petition which may render moot
every and all disputes in the above-
styled case."
The judge granted the motion
Jan. 31.
The TEC partners finalized
contracts with Buckeye and Foley
to purchase the 3,000-acre site in
late 2006. Southern Power, a
subsidiary of Atlanta-based
Southern Company, signed a letter
of intent with the partners in
November.
Under the new agreement.
Southern' Power would pay $3.9
million to the TEC partners to take
over agreements with Buckeye and
Foley Timber and- Land Company
that include purchase of the land as
well as a deal to utilize wastewater
from Buckeye's pulping process as
cooling waters.
The deadline to exercise the
agreement is April 15.'

Women plan prayer breakfast


Saturday at St. Peter's Church


By B.D. WILLIAMS
"Go the Extra Mile"
The things you do for others, do
not for your otwn fane, but give the
glory to the Lord, and in our
Savior's name.
An old gent who is lonely,
someone whose friends are few,
just be the kind of friend to them
that Jesus is to vou.
When finding someone who is
depressed, or one whose road is
curved, you'll find the joy in
serving and not in being served.
When God sends one your way
in need, ask guidance from above,


then give what help you have to
give and do it out of love.
So if you meet someone today,
too tired to even smile, just walk
along and share the load, and go
the extra mile.
Women of St. Peter's Primitive
Baptist Church will have a prayer
breakfast Saturday at the church.
The breakfast will be $4 each. A
citywide invitation is extended to
all. Sunday, Feb. 10 regular church
service will begin with Sunday
School at 9:45. We are asking for
all children and adults attend.

(Above) Geneva Reiser, left, was on hand to congratulate
iMary Lou Whitfield on the publication of her book, "815
-West Bay." (Right) Mary Lou Whitfield signs a copy of her
book for Tallahassee Democrat editorial page editor Mary
Ann Lindley. Whitfield was a community columnist for the
.newspaper in the early 1980s.


:Library

DiDzens gathered at the Taylor
?County Public Library Monday,
,Jari L28, to honor local historian
.and author Mary Lou Whitfield.
The Friends of the Library held a
:author's reception, during which
"those close to Whitfield, both
pers-onally and professionally,
,shared a few words and memories.
Whitfield recently published
`815 West Bay," a collection of
newspaper columns she published
in the Taco Times and the
Tallahassee Democrat.
James Gross, president of the
Friends, began the reception by
welcoming the record crowd to the
library.
He spoke of how Whitfield


reception honors Whitfield


wrote a letter to the Tallahassee
Democrat after seeing a notice
about community columnists.
"I lack the imagination to write
fiction, but find a lot of satisfaction
in scribbling down little narratives
out of the life right around me,"
she wrote in a letter dated Dec. 8,
1979.
"About myself, I was the tallest
girl in the 1929 graduating class of
the Taylor County High School
and because of that I was singled
out to march at the head of the
class, along with the tallest boys,
during our commencement
exercises," she continued.
'Mary Ann Lindley, editorial
page editor for the Tallahassee


Democrat, joined the newspaper
in the summer of 1979, and was
the one -who received Whitfield's
letter.
"I remember your application,"
she said last week to Whitfield,
who sat in a place of honor in the
front row.
"I loved that you were the tallest
person in your class. I was five
foot, 10 inches in the 10th grade."
Whitfield would go on to write


columns for the newspaper every
three weeks.
"I think [your columns] still
resonate," Lindley said. "They are
relaxing. It's really a pleasure to be
here."
Next to speak was Taylor
County Superintendent of Schools
Oscar M. Howard Jr., who was
principal at Gladys Morse

Need money for college? Mark
Feb. 24 on your calendar.
Volunteers from North Florida
Community College are hosting
College Goal Sunday sites in
Hamilton, Suwannee and Madison
counties. The open-to-the-public
event provides expert assistance in
filling out the Free Application for
Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), so
prospective students can qualify
for financial aid to attend college.
This is the third year NFCC has
coordinated the drive in the local
area.
Trained volunteers will be ready
to help students from 2 until 5 p.m.
.at the Hamilton County High
School Media Center in Jasper, the
Suwannee High School. Media
Center in Live Oak and at NFCC's
Marshall Hamilton Library in
Madison.
"WVe launched this program to
help students who dream 'of going
to college to gain better access to
millions of dollars in financial
aid," said Commissioner Eric J.
Smith, Florida Department of
Education.
"In just one day, anyone who
wants to learn about the financial
aid process can get one-on-one
. help from the experts."
Returning students, high school
seniors and current college
students are encouraged to attend.
A $500 scholarship valid for any
college will be awarded at each
site to a student who attends the
event.
Not only will students have a
chance to win an on-site


scholarship, they will also receive
credible and reliable information
about grants, work study programs
and scholarships to pay for
college, Smith added.
According to the Florida Office
of Student Financial Assistance,
college-bound students who
complete the FAFSA could qualify
for thousands of dollars in federal
and state need-based financial aid.
Gaining access to free or low-
interest money is an alternative to
high interest loans and huge debts
after graduation.
Last year more than 4,600
students and families participated
in College Goal Sunday events.
Dozens were from North Florida
counties.

This is in concern to all the
.n-iengie people that are in this
ji\ n that do not want the hospital
'it. slay open here. If we do not
k% e a hospital what will happen?
:1e % ant to share our story about
air precious mother (Ethel Mae
tlrner i that had an emergency on
Pa. 12. 2007, and we called 911
and their service was very prompt
w elI proven to be the best that
. could ask for.
Ve all were amazed with the
at concern of not just one
:pers,:'n but all the people starting
'-ith i ie ambulance rescue right on
down to the clean-up crew.
Our mother would have died if
"Qod" had not have put all these
paying, good hearted, caring,
kqid, understanding, sweet, nice,
considerate, helpful, responsive,
knowledgeable employees, doctors
and nurses to, accommodate us
people that are need of their help.


ankful for treatment I


her received at DMH L


Our mother was in and out of
Doctors' Memorial Hospital from
May 12-August 2007. She was in
the ER and was admitted in the
hospital several times, and every
time all the doctors, nurses, aides,
clean-up crew, lab, food delivery,
life flight and whoever else (we do
not want to leave anyone out, we
cannot remember all the peoples
names, but you know who you
are), you all were the best that we
could ask for. Thanks to you all.
After hearing all the horror
stories from sb many people, we
were actual afraid to let our mother .
go to what everyone has labeled
our hospital to be (the band-aid
station). You people need to be
thankful for this hospital we have;
we all have needed and will need it
from one time to the other, If we do
not have one in case of an
emergency of your health, or dying
status, what then?
',God" is good all the time; He is


good to us when we don't even
think about how He is protecting
us even when we get a bad, rude
and unfriendly doctor, nurse or
someone unpleasant to us at the
time of service, we need to be
thankful to have somewhere to go
for an emergency.
I say we need this hospital and
we all in this county need to stick
together and try to make a
difference in helping to save these
people's jobs, and to have a
hospital to support this town.
We are thankful to "God" first,
to all. the praying people, the
visitors, .people that helped our
"mother" and for all your support
to our family.
Our dear and precious mother
passed away on August 28, 2007.
She is missed badly by the ones that
loved her. She was precious to us.

Jim Lloyd
Dear Senator Lott,
Thank you for asking my input
to the NRSC regarding Republican
strategy. However, I find the check
box options on the enclosed
Strategy ballot inadequate for fully
expressing my input. Frankly, the
ballot options appear to be the
"same old same old" issues in the
ongoing saga of Republican/
Democrat bickering which has our
country divided and stalemated. In
my opinion we need radically new
strategy.
Therefore,.at the risk of wasting
effort, I will lay out what I feel our
nation's strategy should be.

Letters to the Editor


Strategy includes changes in foreign policy


FUTURE
Continued from page 2
However, first I will list a few
statements to lay foundation and
reasoning behind my strategy
thoughts:
Every Administration and
Congress from Jimmy Carter
forward has failed to provide the
desperately needed vision,
leadership and forcefulness to get
our country away from dependence
on Middle East oil. Our country is
paying a terrible price for this
failure.
It is foolish to think that our two
century old country could have the
understanding and wisdom to fix
the problems rampant throughout
the Middle East as well those in
some areas of Asia and Africa. The
Islamic radical, as well, as other
religious and tribal bickering and
conflicts have been going on for
several millenniums and will likely
continue for several more
irrespective of what we try to do.
::.The only successful conflict
intervention in the area by the
United States was Thomas
Jefferson's initiation of our naval
attacks on the Barbary Pirates and
the associated United States Marine
invasion of Tripoli during the 1801
to 1805 period. You will remember
the pirates were Islamic radicals
seeking plunder to fund their
various endeavors of that period.
In spite of large loss of life and'
huge spending, we have failed to
win the more recent wars in Korea,
Viet Nam, Afghanistan and Iraq.
We are nowhere in the decades
long standoff with Iran and we have
-uIrert.ete iiire d in the 'never ending
quagmire of Lebanon, Palestine and
Israel.
All this Middle East involvement
and limited success represents a
pretty rotten return on the lost lives
of fine personnel and the billions of
dollars of our people's wealth being
poured into these areas.
*The several decade failures of
administrations, congresses, states
and local governments to simply
enforce our own laws has created
out current Immigration mess
which is costing millions and is
painfully dividing our country.
With the preceding in mind,
here's my strategy input for the
party to consider:
-Place a "full court press" priority
on. getting out from under Middle
East oil.
-Much of our oil money flow to
the Middle East goes to funding
terrorist threats to our national
security. This in turn increases our
n'ilitary causalities and forces more
military and national security
spending by the United States.
Mobilize our nation to get away
from Middle East oil within years

not decades.
This means finding more on-
shore oil, opening up off-shore
drilling, building new pollution
efficient coal-fired plants, fast track
adding of nuclear facilities, and
further developing natural gas,
solar, wind generation and other
sources.
Put incentives and funding in
place to maximize the application
of our scientific, engineering and
other national talents against the
task.
Put incentives and programs in
place to cause us all to reduce per
capital energy needs.
Fix immigration and control our
borders.
Close all borders and
control/track those allowed in.
Establish the necessary finger print,
eye/facial, national ID cards and/or
DNA recognition technologies
needed to identify and track
everyone allowed in.
Set up a program for all those
currently here illegally to remain in
a guest worker program as long as
they have and maintain a crime and
drug-free record. After all most of
these people are here due to our
government failures combined with
their efforts to better themselves.
Our country needs people with
initiative and willingness to work.
The guest worker program should
include "end-of-the-line"
placement for guest workers
seeking citizenship (behind those
from outside the country and
currently in line).
Require English speaking,
reading and writing for long-term
guest w orkers,.a.n. all citizenship


candidates.
Get out of the Middle East right
now.
This means pulling out of
Afghanistan and Iraq. This includes
pulling away from Lebanon,
Palestine and Israel issues unless
asked for consulting involvement
by the parties.
It also means cutting off our
money flow to the entire area.
Instead use the money to fund the
energy and immigration strategies
presented above.
Let the UN deal with any money
and/or conflict involvement needs
in the Middle East.
Many fear the Middle East might
enter civil conflict chaos. If so, it
will probably be typical of most of
the last couple thousand years. With
the Middle, East factions likely
more focused on internal issues and
less on their hate of the United
States, more time may be provided
for us get to get our energy and
border/immigration strategies in
place.
If Middle East internal chaos
does gets totally out of hand, China
and Russia are far better positioned
geographically, financially and
influentially to deal with the
factions than are we.
Not everyone will agree to all the
specifics of my input; but,
everybody I know feels the country
is in a mess, headed in the wrong
direction and that big change is
needed. Most, including me will go
with the party presenting the most
responsible big change direction.
Sincerely,
James A. Lloyd
