Anderson eyes coaching job, plans visit


There ma\ be good- news
concerning the open head football
coaching position at Ta lor County
High School TCHS). according to
Assistant Principal Sandy Hendry.
Freeport head football coach and
athletic director Jim Anderson. 45,
has been "in contact with TCHS
officials." according to Hendry,
and "is show ing a lot of interest.
However, no firm commitment has'
been made."
Anderson is expected to make a
trip to TCHS to visit "the powers
that be, possibly later this week,"
she added. "It's possible that a
decision will be made then."
Anderson is the winriingest
'coach in Freeport history, with 24
wins and two pla. -off appearances
in three years, and actually served


as offensive coordinator at TCHS
during the 1993-94 season.
Billy Ray Adams of Winfield,
Ala., who was leading the field of
applicants, un-epecctedly flip-
flopped on his decision to accept
the position the day before his
expected arrival in Perry to begin a
spring practice session and set-up
for the summer program.
Adams contacted TCHS
Principal Michael Thompson and
Hendry last week with the news,
citing on-going concerns about his
wife's health.
Hendry said the spring jamboree
against Hamilton County had been
cancelled for several weeks,
because "they are having coaching
problems, also."
The coaching vacancy was


created by Dennis Kizziah stepping
down as.head coach to .accept a
dean's position at the high-school.


A search committee has been
reviewing dozens of applications
since Kizziah announced his


resignation as coach in March.
Recently the committee narrowed
the. field to four candidates.

hazards and realize the only way to
address the danger is through more
intense training for career and
volunteer firefighters.
In the past, the minimum
standard requirement for volunteers
was to complete the First
Responder certification and a 40-
hour firefighters course, along
with on-going local option
classes. Taylor County has now
adopted the new state minimum.
,standard requirements of 160 hours
of instruction (available through
Taylor Technical Institute (TTI) or
other certified training
institutions) and passing the state
Firefighter One and First
Responder exam.
The first class has just
completed the new requirements
through TTI with Steve Miller,
TCFR chief as lead instructor.
First Responder certification and
training was also included in the
program, which meant the overall
course lasted 250 hours. The
instructors for the First Responder
certification were paramedics
Robby English, Tina Parker and
Kelly Winstead.
The first class had a 100 percent
pass rate on both the TTI and
State Fire Collage exams.
Volunteers taking the minimum
standards course were Ron
Etheridge, Jimmy Sauls, Donald
Bowden, Ken Parker, Gary
Holden, Steve Moody, Jimmy
Jackson and Josh Ellison. Others
in the area who have completed
the certification in a separate class
are John Fish, Darby Gibson and
Bryan Goddard.
A second class is now in
progress in the Steinhatchee area.
Future classes are being planned to
work with those interested but
unable to take either of those two
courses. All 40-hour certified
volunteer firefighters in the area,
persons desiring to become
professional firefighters or anyone
18 and older who would like to
become a member of this
rewarding community service unit
are encouraged to call TCFR at
838-3522 for further details.
The tuition, for, all those
passing the course, was covered by
the county commission.

Departing from tradition, Beta
Sigma Phi will stage this year's
Lady of the Year tea on Monday,
May 16, from 6 until 7:30 p.m.
in the Parish Hall of Immaculate
Conception Catholic Chuch.
The traditional Sunday afternoon
event moves to a weekday, but
retains its focus on singling out a
woman of merit from within the
community.
The scope of this 30-year
tradition lhas yielded recognition
for many teachers, as well as
women interested in beautification
efforts and those involved with a
host of community benevolences
such as Taylor Association for
Retarded Citizens, Taylor Adult
Meals Program, the American Red
Cross and the American Cancer
Society. It has also found
honorees in jail ministry, in the
Taylor County Historical Society
and in the Chamber of Commerce.
The list looks like this:
The first honoree, in 1972, was
Mary Carter, remembered as a
"great, great first grade teacher"
and an active member of First
United Methodist Church,
"helping anywhere she was needed,
but especially in the children's
programs."

honoree, having invested 31 years
as a school nurse at Taylor
County High School. She was

1977 for her "remarkable efforts"
in downtown beautification, and
her many other civic

accolades as Chamber of
Commerce president and Florida
Forest Festival chairperson.
In 1979, the Lady of the Year

musical abilities were recognized
throughout the community and
whose organizational skills made
the Singing Tree (a community
choir) a hit at the 1977 Forest
Festival.
Catharin Norman was named

for having "artfully combined
discipline and friendship" in her
role as physical education
instructor for Taylor County High
School.

1981 for her work with Taylor
Association of Retarded Citizens
and for her term as Forest Festival
chairperson.
In 1982, the honoree was Mary

work extended through the local
Taylor County Historical Society
and her own First Baptist Church,
to include Meals On Wheels, the
Perry Woman's Club and the

Confederacy.
The following year, all praise
went to Clarice Hart who was
applauded for her longtime service

generosity" as well as her tireless
work through First Presbyterian
Church.

Sin 1989, was appreciated for her
work with the Taylor Adult Meals
Program, Girl Scouts and
Community Friends, as well as

counselor in the community.

Honorees remembered


LADY
Continued from page 4
and caring.
In 1999, the Lady of the Year
title went to Alma Walker who
declared, "I have not done as much
as these other-women. You need
to,get a new committee and find
somebody else." Instead, she was
recognized for extensive work with
the American Red Cross, for
which she won the Clara Barton
:Award and another Volunteer of
the Year award.
: In the year 2000, Ruby Nell
,Collins took the honor,
surrounded by family members and
friends. Mrs. Collins was.
recognized "for her compassion for
the hungry and homeless" which
prompted her to assist in the
formation of Community Friends.
Further, she was honored for her
service as an educator and a
founding member of the Taylor
County Historical Society.
When the spring of 2001 rolled
around, Beta Sigma Phi members
lured Susan Nelson to the
,Parish Hall "under false
Spretenses." She thought she was
there to applaud a friend, but the
applause went to Nelson for her
"magnificent volunteer work
benefitting the American Cancer
Society's Relay for Life in Taylor
County."
Nelson was recognized for her
dedicated work for her church-- St.
James Episcopal-- and other
community projects. Upon
.receiving her award, Nelson looked
at the gathering of previous award
winners and said, "I am honored to
be in such good company."


Diane Ching was the 2002
recipient who thought she was
appearing at the tea to issue a call
for volunteers for the Boys and
Girls Club. Instead, she ended up
with a corsage, a plaque and a host
of well-wishers.
Ching, an exercise devotee and
animal lover, was recognized for
her volunteer work through United
Way, the Rotary Club, Taylor
County Senior Service and St.
James Episcopal Church.
In 2003, June McLeod (now
deceased) was honored as the
humble recipient, disavowing her
worthiness. McLeod, a native of
the Boyd community, was
remembered as a 35-year teacher at
Gladys Morse Elementary School
who volunteered endlessly and
gave of herself selflessly. Her
retirement years brought forth
geneaology pursuits and work
toward a comprehensive history of
Taylor County.
Last year's recipient, Elaine
Bartges, was overcome with
surprise on her day of honor, but
friends who gathered could only
speak of how "deserving" she was.
A native of Pennsylvania, Bartges
was recognized as the only woman
in Taylor County who spent her
days designing snow plows. She
is a telecommuting pioneer and
modern mother. Her greatest
battle was with breast cancer, and
her recovery which prompted
praise to God, has also led to a
"cottage ministry" to other women
who face the disease. She is "an
excellent example of the way
vibrant women rock this
community."

Comments sought on best fishing spots


It's not too late to cast your
comments about your favorite
fishing hole. The Florida Fish and
Wildlife Conservation Com-
mission (FWC) is giving anglers
more time to fill out an online
survey and provide input for the
direction of their favorite sport.
The agency initially set a May 1
deadline, but due to an
overwhelming response decided to
extend it to May 15.
"We hope to get at least 1,000
respondents, and we're about
halfway there," said Darrell
Scovell, director of the recently


restructured Division of
Freshwater Fisheries Management.
"The comments we receive will be
used to set priorities for
conservation efforts and guide our
agency into the future, so we
decided to give our anglers extra
time to give us feedback."
Scovell said the surveys are the
first step in his division's efforts
to evaluate performance of the
previous fisheries division. The
FWC will then host ,a series of
public meetings, called zone
summits, to discuss survey results
and develop plans for the future.

Use firewalls, antivirus programs


to protect your computers


By JEREMY HARTMAN

In the last article, I spoke of
the basics of protecting your
information from being vulnerable
and available for theft. I'm going
to, continue speaking about
identity and information theft in
this article. A good antivirus and
checking for encryption on a
website are two basic ways to
protect yourself against leaving
your information vulnerable but
they're not always enough.


Sometimes you need more
protection. Windows XP has a
built in firewall, so any windows
XP users out there don't really
'have to worry about this part so
long as their firewall is enabled..
Everyone else should find a good
firewall and use it. TinyFirewall
and Zone Alarm are two good
firewall programs I would
recommend trying. The trouble is,
if you don't configure it properly,
a firewall can give you plenty of
headaches. Please consult a


technician before you install a
firewall on your own.
A few things you can do to
protect your information are fairly
basic and practical. For example,
if anyone, anyone at all, ever e-
mails you and asks you to e-mail
your information back to them,
never do it. E-mail, despite any
assurances you may receive from
someone trying to get you to send
your information, is never a secure
method of sending private,
financially sensitive information.


Ag day
Taylor County 4-H recently hosted an Agriculture Day for all 5th grade youth in the county.
The purpose of the Agriculture Day is to teach youth about the importance.of agriculture and
how it affects their everyday lives. Speakers, for the day were from Farm Bureau, University
of Florida, Department of Agriculture, farmers, Buckeye, and Foley Lands & Timber. Over
-300 youth and teachers participated in this event.

North Florida Community
College .will conduct GED tests
May 17 and 18, at 6 p.m. in the
NFCC Technical Center on the
Madison campus.
Persons taking the tests will be


required to furnish a photo ID.
NFCC holds GED preparation
courses free of charge; there is a
fee for the test. Pre-registration is
required. To register, please call
(850) 973-1629.


Shown above are, front row, from left, Jay Padgett, Lynesey Jones and Ryan Roach. Back
row, Daniel Lester, Jeremiah Owens, Sean Padgett and Jerry Meeks. Not shown are Caleb
Reaves and Jonathan Roberts.


It doesn't matter if the e-mail
looks like it's from a'financial
company or even PayPal or eBay,
if they ever ask you-to specifically
include your social security
number, credit card number, or
anything else like that, delete the
email. Do not reply to it.
Just to review, to keep your
information safe, always use a
good antivirus and firewall.
Always check to see if any site


you're going to be submitting
information to is encrypted. Never
send any private information in an
e-mail, even if you're replying to
an information request that looks
legitimate. Identity theft and
stolen, credit' card numbers are
always a threat to anyone
performing financial transactions
online but, thankfully, there are
things that we can all do to protect
ourselves.

Opportunity for the citizens of
Florida, especially those in Taylor
County, to come together and
celebrate our state's number one
industry--tourism.
Playing host to more than 76.8
million visitors, 2004 was a
record breaking year for Florida's
tourism industry.
Visitors generated $56.5 billion


in taxable sales, and their spending
pumps more revenue into the.
economy than any other source.
Tourism is big business in
Florida, in fact it's the largest
industry in the state, comprising
more than 20 percent of our state's
economy.
From hotel employees and
rental car agencies to local grocery
stores and gas stations, Florida
employs more than 890,700
individuals in numerous tourism-
related areas, but everyone, reaps
the benefits from tourism.


From tax revenues that build
highways to better resources for
education, many public services
are enhanced by tourism revenues.
Let's continue to make Florida a
sunny place to visit by using our
warm, southern hospitality to
welcome visitors. An Open
House Thursday. May 12. at the
Chamber of Commerce will
showcase our tourism initiatives.
Please join us in turning National
Tourism Week into a year-long
celebration.
Dawn Taylor
Chamber President


Letters to the Editor



Does fear make NAACP powerful?


Dear Editor:
In a letter on May 4, 2005,
Steve "Johnson asked the
community, "If the events
surrounding the firing of City
Attorney Bill Blue don't cause
people to raise an eyebrow, what
will?"
As Steve is already well aware,
most.of our local politicians seem

Thanks given

for l.D. help
Dear Editor:
For seven days we labored in the
effort to make as' many video
identification tapes as we could at
the Taylor County Elemeniary
School. It was a labor of love and
.a. pleasure to work with the,
children and the personnel ofthe,
school.
I would like to thank these
volunteers: Linda Brannen of
Taylor County Elementary School
and parent liaisons Belinda Pravior
.and Denise Stiles: Norman Jester
and Don Callaway of
Steinhatchee; Katrina Slaughter

SDavid Durden of Perry and all the
others who helped within the
school system.

to quake in their collective boots
anytime the NAACP decides to
take up an issue with them.-
Forget what the rest.of' the.
community thinks, they must
make all efforts to appease this
organization. WhN is this, you
might ask? Fear is the only
answer.
The NAACP has always been
an instrument of the Communist
front in this country. Their
agenda has one purpose and one.
purpose onl] and that is to
promote socialism in this country,
and our politicians--through fear of
the NAACP land organizations
like them; SPLC, ACLU, etc.)--
are helping them. '
So, what is socialism? Lenin.
one of history's experts on
socialism says "communism is
socialism in a hurry,".therefore,
socialism simply. put, is .,
communism gradually. The
NAACP, through threats, aind
lawsuits, has been very successful
in slowly (gradually) eroding the
rights of citizens in this country
simply by "race-baiting." and
bullying everyone from private
business owners, to local, slate,
and national politicians.
The N.LACP's tactics have long
been to make demands (no matter
how unreasonable, and often times
will threaten violence if the
demands are not met). and then
when these demands are not met.
they will very publicly "cry
racism." create a media circus
centering around the supposed
"racist." and then sue the supposed
"racist" and whoever else they can
tie in to that person. Needless to
sa). this very seldom gels past the
first step as those involved cower
in fear and cave in to these
demands.

Many of us in the community
have seen this firsthand. Take the
school dress code,. and the
Confederate flag issues a while
back. The NAACP was at the
root of this problem as well, and
of course, their superintendent of
schools and school board members
caved in. Does anyone remember

a time when these politicians
worked for.the people and not for
special interest "civil rights"
organizations? The results of this
has been the partial loss of our
children's Constitutional rights.
Remember. gradualism is the
goal. If each of, us concede a
small part at a time. we won't
realize we have lost it all when
that time comes. The NAACP has
detrimentally .affected many
individuals and communities using
their threats and socialistic
agendas, while the rest of the
community hides themselves away
for fear of being called ugly names
by this group. I personally know
of several individuals who stood
up to the local NAACP in order to
protect their rights after which
individual NAACP members went
to these individuals' employers and
fi-ddcomplisms of', racism" aind
tried to cost them their jobs (i.e.
Stake away their means to support
their own family). Of course, the
letters of intent to sue lor
defamation could not be directed at
the organization because the
organization can't be held
responsible for the actions of their
individual members. There is no
wa) to prove that the NAACP put
them up to it! These are just a few
of the immoral tactics used by
such people.
The longer this community sits
back in silence because what has
happened does not affect them
directly, the worse it will get, and
sooner or later they will come for
you. If you don't believe me, just
ask Bill Blue.
For some really good
information on how most
conservative blacks feel about the
NAACP. Jesse Jackson, Sharpton.
etc. you should go to
ww\.issues-views.com. This is
an excellent web site. Their logo
states "so you, think all blacks
think alike...from the front line of
dissent since 1985." These folks
know who the real racists are and
clearly understand the agenda of
the black elite who run these
socialist organizations.

Do you have

good neighbors?

Dear Editor:
This is to say to everyone who
has good neighbors: love them and
appreciate them until your dying
day.
Most of my neighbors are good
people, but every now and then we
must adjust to the fact that there is
a bad one in every barrel.
In my Garden of Eden there does
exist one young man who has
possession of either a record, a
tape or a CD and has assumed he
has a special vision that the Good
Lord has given him a message to
play "Reveille," the bugle song
that serves to wake up the military
in the a.m.
Well, this tune. I am sure.
everyone is aware of has to be
played every day and every night.
All day long and all nightlong,
over and over until eternity. This
is followed up by the'rendition of
"Taps." I cannot figure out
whether I am supposed to arise, go
to.bed or attend a military funeral.
I should be thankful, I suppose

Letters to the Editor


Doctor c

Dear Editor:
I am writing this letter regarding
an incident that occurred at
Doctors' Memorial Hospital
approximately in early April. I
apologize for its length, however I
hope you will publish it because I
believe it is important for your
readers and the citizens of Taylor
County to know what happened
that evening.
*I was the back-up physician to
the Emergency Room and was
called by the ER physician to
admit a patient that was described
as stable, with pneumonia. I told
him to admit her under the
pneumonia pathway and that I
would see her at the end of my
clinic hours. I arrived at the
hospital about 7 p.m. that evening
to find the patient in such severe
pain that she was having difficulty
speaking. She assured me that she
had chronic back pain and that she
felt this pain was coming from her
back. Although I was
Uncomfortable with the amount of
pain she appeared to be
experiencing, her medications did
indicate that she was a chronic
pain patient, so, I readjusted some
of the orders from the ER
physician and left for home.
At approximately 1 a.m. in the
morning, Ann, the charge nurse,
called to inform me that the
patient was in severe respiratory
distress and that,they had the crash
cart there, fully expecting her to
code at any minute. I advised
them to take the patient to the
ICU and I would be there as
quickly as I possibly could. Ann
called me back within a matter of
Seconds to inform me that the ICU
had no beds. I'told her that I
would call the ICU and have one
of my'patients moved oul so that
we could move this patient to the
ICU.
By the time I got to the'
hospital, approximately five
minutes later, the patient was still
upstairs, but Ann had efficiently
gotten in a second (I.V.) line, and
Ron, the respiratory therapist, was
.. standing by and evaluating the
patient's respiratory status on a
continual basis. We quickly
moved the patient downs to the
S ICU, and by the time we got there
the ICU nurses were ready for us,
Within two minutes the patient,
was hooked up to all the monitors
and ready for us to begin
Immediate intervention.
Ann stayed in the ICU--even
though she was the Med/Surg
supervisor--in order to monitor the

other patients in the ICU, because
it took two nurses and me to
stabilize the patient. Ann was
wonderful in terms of dealing with
the ICU patients' needs and
keeping everything under control
as we were, frantically trying to
stabilize the patient.
The other nurses on the
Med/Surg floor, wvho were also
dealing with a very critical patient,
efficiently took over the Med/Surg
area in Ann's absence. Everyone
on the med/surg floor pitched in to
help fill Ann's position until she
could return.
Elise and Lisa, who were the
two ICU nurses working with me,
were absolutely phenomenal.
They already had the appropriate
meds 'available when we first
reached the ICU. When we began
Sour attempt to stabilize the
patient's pulse, which was around
260 beats per minute at that time,
the correct meds were available and
had been given before I even had a'
chance to order them.
As we worked through this
patient's crisis, the nurses
maintained a level of
.professionalism, a level of calm
and a level of sensitivity to the
patient's emotional well-being I
have never before witnessed. Ron,
the respiratory therapist, stayed
until he was absolutely sure that
the patient was stable ,from a
respiratory standpoint. His
demeanor was so professional and
,he was so calm that it helped to
keep the patient calm.
.Tarcilla, the ward clerk, also
went above and beyond the call of
dut' that night. Before I even had
-to ask her to order a lab or test,
she already had done so due to the
fact that she was paying attention
to the ongoing situation. Without
prompting, she also called the
patient's husband to inform him of
the patient's move to the ICU and
that he needed to come in. She
then called.the security guard and
advised him of the husband's
imminent arrival and told the
guard to meet him and escort him
to the ICU.

we could continue to monitor her
condition while the CT was being

bilateral, main stem pulmonary
embolus. She was critically ill. I
firmly believe that she would have
been dead at the age 59 if not for
the incredible-care that she was
given at Doctors' Memorial
Hospital.

Swas back in the ICU as soon as
possible, this was truly the most
well-oiled medical team that I've
ever seen.
You need to know that the
quality of staff that you employ at


Doctors' Memorial Hospital far
exceeds any I have worked with in
Phoenix and Arkansas. We hear
negative commentary about our
hospital, but I am here to tell you
that the staff at DMH saved a 59-
year-old woman's life. They
helped me stabilize her and they
got her transported to Tallahassee
Memorial Hospital and the able
care of Dr. Bailey. Three hours
later, after he had a chance to
evaluate her and to review the care
she received at DMH, he called to
tell me that even if she had been
in a tertiary care center, she could
not have received better care.


So, I applaud everyone who was
involved in the care of that patient
that night, and I would like for
each of them to know how much I
appreciate the incredible care they
provided. Not only that, but they
also gave sincere and genuine
emotional support to the patient
and her family.
I thank you for taking the time
to read and publish this lengthy
letter, but I wanted you to
understand the quality of staff we
'have employed here at DMH.
I remain sincerely yours,
Diane A. Haisten, D.O.

Taylor animal shelter



announces changes

Due to lack of manpower, Taylor County Animal Control (TCAC)_
has announced the following procedure changes and classifications:
--TCAC will not'respond to any after hours calls except dog bites5-
to humans or severe injury/attack/death on livestock or domestic pets.
If you have an animal that is sick or injured please contact your
veterinarian. Strays, animals in. traps, lost or found will be handled
during regular business hours as these are routine issues.
For true emergencies, as stated above, contact the Taylor County,
Sheriffs Offico dispatch. An animal control officerwill contact you as
soon as possible. Depending on the severity of the case, we will
handle as much as possible over the phone.
--If a dog/cat attacks/injures/bites a human, we must take that
animal to the shelter for quarantine. If the citizen must kill the dog or
cat, animal control must have the remains for laboratory test for
rabies.
--Animal control is overwhelmed with strays, traps, dangerous
dogs, cruelty investigations and the amount of area to cover. Duaeto._
this situation, if a citizen has an animal they want to turn in atthe
Taylor County Animal Shelter, please call our office. As we are on the
road and not in the office, an appointment for a drop off time will-be
made. Bring the animals) at the agreed upon time.
--We will no longer come, to your home for an owner turn in.
Animals will be turned away if there is no more room at the shelter so
it is strongly suggested that you call before you come to the shelter.
--If you plan to set your own personal animal trap, be aware that an
officer may not be readily available to pick up this animal. It can take
a minimum of 48 hours to fit you into the schedule. You are
encouraged to bring the animal to the shelter yourself, but please.call
ahead to be sure we have room for the animal.
Contact the animal shelter at 838-3525 for an appointment; leave
your name and number and the best time to speak with you. ..

150 students attend

TTI showcases careers


Taylor Technical Institute (TTI)
recently welcomed more than 150
high school students from the area
for its annual Career Day Fair.
"I'm very pleased with the high
school's participation in our
Career Fair this year," said Ken
Olsen, director of TTI.
"Even thought' our overall
numbers are down from last year,
the students who participated
received a lot of good information
that will help them in making a
decision about their career choice
in the future," said Izell
Montgomery, industry services
coordinator.
Approximately 150 high school
students from Madison Excel
School, Lafayette County High
School, Taylor County High
School and the Taylor Learning
Center attended the Career Fair.
In addition, 31 representatives
from 16 companies and agencies
participated by setting up booths
and sharing information with
students.
According to the January 2004
report of the Council on Education
Policy, Research and Improvement
(CEPRI) more than 60 percent of
the projected job growth in
Florida through 2010 will
be in occupations requiring
postsecondary education and
training not a bachelor's degree.
