Columbia County sheriff’s deputies joined the search for a Pennsylvania man wanted for his alleged involvement in the June 1 attempted carjacking and stabbing of Pittsburgh Steelers offen-sive lineman Mike Adams.
C o l u m b i a County depu-ties began s e a r c h i n g T u e s d a y for Jerrell Whitlock, 26, according to Sgt. Edward Seifert, sheriff’s office public information offi-cer.
“There is some intelligence that may put him in our area,” Seifert said, declining to be more specific.
Whitlock is 5 feet, 11 inch-es tall and weighs about 200 pounds, Seifert said. Whitlock was last seen with a mustache and a goatee.
Florida authorities are work-ing with Pittsburgh police, Allegheny County sheriff’s deputies and the Pennsylvania state police to locate Whitlock, Seifert said.
Authorities searched several residences and other locations in North Florida but did find Whitlock. Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richard

School administrators shuffled
By AMANDA WILLIAMSON
The Columbia County school superin-tendent has ordered a major personnel shuffle in the school system to place the
right people with the right schools, he said.
Superintendent Terry Huddleston said a large number of employees will be lost in the next two years to retirement, and he wants to prepare cur-rent staff for that eventu-ality.
“We’ve not done a good job training future administrators,” he said at Tuesday
night’s school board meeting. “We need to give them a chance to grow ... and we need people who are trained to step in and take over.”
Six administrative officials have been reassigned to new schools, including the previously announced moves of Five Points Elementary principal Michael Allen and Dr. Susan Summers, assistant princi-pal at Fort White High School.
Allen has already moved to an assistant principal position for Melrose Park and
Pinemount elementary schools. Teresa Metrick, who replaced Allen at Five Points, moved from the principal position at Summers Elementary.
Summers will take over the assistant prin-cipal position at Fort White Elementary.
“Every move was discussed extensive-ly between myself (and top district-level administrators),” Huddleston said. It’s not a punishment or a pay cut. It was based on
Superintendent says moves meant to put personnel in place ahead of retirements.

School staff to be cut to help budget
By AMANDA WILLIAMSON
School Superintendent Terry Huddleston says the Columbia County School District will not rehire 16 teachers and 33 para-professionals to help solve the district’s financial woes.
During the special budget work-
shop on Tuesday, H u d d l e s t o n informed the school board that the predicted final cash fund balance for the 2012-13 school year will be $668,124, which
is lower than anticipated. The district has already left numerous positions unfilled as employees resigned or retired.
The budget for next year’s pay-
roll will be set at $55 million, but the school district needs to cut $2 million from that to break even. To save $2.5 million in pay-roll, the district will eliminate 33 paraprofessional positions, 16 instructional positions, two cler-ical positions and four district support positions. According to Huddleston, the school district has been overstaffed in a number of areas.
“We have nowhere else to save any money at this time,” he said. “The only other way would have
been to start cutting teachers, and you can’t do that because of the class size requirement.”
If possible, Huddleston said, he will rehire some of the parapro-fessionals who were recommend-ed to be reappointed. Possible open positions can only be filled by applicants from that pool of 33 employees, he said, if the budget allows for it.
“With all the years manag-ing, we’ve just got to laying off,”
16 teaching positions, 39 other slots to be vacated to save $2.5M.

Zimmerman jury selection slow
SANFORD — During two days of questioning, prosecutors and George Zimmerman’s attorneys have been unable to find potential jurors who hadn’t heard something about the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin by the neighborhood watch volunteer.
By mid-day Tuesday, the attorneys had questioned 10 potential jurors in per-son, and more than 40 jury candidates had been dismissed after filling out a questionnaire.
Zimmerman, who was a neighborhood watch volunteer, is pleading not guilty to a second-degree murder charge that could carry a life sentence if he is convicted. He claims he shot Martin in self-defense. A 44-day delay in Zimmerman’s arrest led to protests around the United States.
Protesters questioned whether the Sanford Police Department was seriously investigating the case of Martin, a black teen from the Miami area. Zimmerman identifies him-self as Hispanic.
Judge Debra Nelson has said she will keep the identities of the selected jurors anonymous but she rejected a defense request to sequester the initial jury pool of 500 residents.
Attorneys need to find six jurors and four alter-nates. In Florida, 12 jurors are required only for crimi-nal trials involving capital cases, when the death pen-alty is being considered.
Defense attorneys asked potential jurors if being isolated during the trial would be a hardship, indicating they plan to ask Nelson to sequester the jury. Jury candidates who move on from the initial round of questioning about
their knowledge of the case, face other rounds of interviews with the attorneys.
Grandma earns law degree
PANAMA CITY — Sandra Wilson graduated from law school in May at age 70. Now she’s study-ing for the bar exam and preparing to look for a job.
Wilson raised three chil-dren before she went back to Florida State University, where she graduated in 2009. The next year, she made the bold decision to move to Montgomery, Ala., to attend Faulkner University.
“I lived there for three years,” Wilson told the News Herald of Panama City. “I never lived by myself. I left my parents’ home when I married my husband (Steve).”
Her husband was fully on board with the decision to go to law school.
On June 1, the couple celebrated 50 years of mar-riage.
Once she passes the bar exam, Sandra Wilson wants to do something to help others, perhaps spe-
cializing in children’s law.“I really want to do
something in the public interest. I really want my degree to be used as a ministry,” she said.
Woman shot during carjacking
DAYTONA BEACH — A woman was shot in the legs when she tried to run from two men who had taken her to bank to withdraw money during a carjacking.
Daytona Beach police say a 22-year-old woman was able to make it to a nearby McDonald’s, where workers called 911 on Monday.
The woman says two men with guns forced their way into her car as she returned home from buy-ing cigarettes on Monday. They asked her to drive to a bank to withdraw money.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal reports the woman ran when they got to the bank. She only made it about 20 yards before one of the men shot her. But she kept going until she got to the McDonalds.

Winfrey giving $12M to museumWASHINGTON
Oprah Winfrey is giv-ing $12 million to a museum being built on Washington’s National Mall that will document
African-American history, officials said Tuesday.
The media mogul and former talk-show host previously gave $1 million to the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and the museum says her $13 mil-lion total contribution is its largest to date. As a result, the museum’s 350-seat theater will be named after Winfrey, who is also a member of its advisory council.
Construction on the $500 million museum began in early 2012. When it’s finished in 2015, the museum will be the 19th Smithsonian museum. The U.S. government is providing half of the funding. To date, about $140 million has been raised in pri-vate funds.
“I am deeply appreciative of those who paved the path for me and all who follow in their footsteps. By investing in this museum, I want to help ensure that we both honor and preserve our culture and history, so that the stories of who we are will live on for generations to come,” Winfrey said in a statement released by the museum.
Lonnie Bunch, the museum’s director, said that Winfrey has been very involved in the museum’s creation and that he wouldn’t be surprised if she was one day on the stage of the theater that will bear her name.
Ringo Starr writes book for children
NEW YORK — Ringo Starr is turning an old Beatles favorite into a children’s book.
The drummer has a deal with Simon & Schuster’s Children Books for “Octopus’ Garden,” based on one of the few songs the drummer wrote and sang while with the Beatles. The publisher announced Tuesday that the book will come out in Britain this fall and in the U.S. in early 2014. The book will be illustrated by Ben Cort, whose credits include “Aliens Love Underpants.”
“Octopus’ Garden” first appeared on the Beatles’ “Abbey Road” album, released in 1969.
DA: Brockovich to face boating DUI charge
LAS VEGAS — The district attor-ney in Las Vegas says environmental activist Erin Brockovich will face a misdemeanor charge of operating a
boat while intoxicated following her arrest at Lake Mead.
An aide to Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said Tuesday that Brockovich has an Oct. 7 court date in Henderson Justice Court.
Brockovich lives in Agoura Hills, Calif. She was arrested Friday at a marina on the Colorado River res-ervoir and posted $1,000 bail at the Clark County jail.
Brockovich issued a statement Sunday calling the incident “clearly a big mistake.”
The namesake of a 2000 movie starring Julia Roberts could face six months in jail, a $1,000 fine, com-munity service and court-ordered alcohol counseling if she’s convicted of driving under the influence.

A 17-year-old allegedly stole his mother’s car and had his 21-year-old friend
drive him from Williston to Lake City to see his girl-friend before the two were arrested Monday night.
Albert Earl Merritt, 17, and Trevor Travanti Atkins,
21, both of Williston, face a charge of grand theft of a vehicle, according to a Lake City Police Department news release.
Atkins was taken to the
Columbia County Detention Facility in lieu of $6,000 bond.
Merritt was taken to the Juvenile Assessment Center in Gainesville.

SHUFFLE: Administrators shuffled among schools Continued From Page 1A
their skill set.”Lake City Middle
School assistant principal Christopher “Sean” Adams will be moved to the assis-tant principal position at Summers Elementary. Adams has been at LCMS for seven years and was a little surprised about the transfer.
“I look forward to the opportunity,” he said. “Summers Elementary has-been a fine school for many years.”
The move provides Adams with experience at the elementary school level, Huddleston said.
Huddleston reassigned William Murphy, currently the assistant principal at Richardson Middle School, to replace Adams at LCMS.
Murphy has only been at Richardson for the past year. Before that, he was princi-pal at Niblack Elementary for four years.
He said it is uncommon for so many upper-level administrators to be moved around, but the superinten-dent has the right to move employees based on his judgment.
“It’s just another one of the moves the district is doing,” Murphy said.
“Sometimes you want to change people up to give them experience at differ-ent schools.”
Columbia County Career and Adult Education Coordinator Mary Keen will be moving to an 11-month administrative trainee position at Fort White High School. She will replace Ed Carter, who was transferred and reclassified.
According to Huddleston, Keen was transferred to Fort White because of her extensive knowledge with career and technical education.
“This is something we need at Fort White High,” he said. “Her mission is to expand and develop a new career and tech program.”
School Board member Keith Hudson agreed that Huddleston and adminis-trative staff are looking to find the best fit between schools and personnel. He hopes the decisions made will end up benefiting the students.
“If you got a school in need and you can shuffle the personnel to improve the overall system, that’s what [Huddleston’s] trying to do,” Hudson said.
CUTS: 55 total positions to be eliminated Continued From Page 1A
said school board member Linard Johnson. “Other dis-tricts around us have been laying off hundreds of peo-ple, including teachers.”
Huddleston hopes that after new finance director Bonnie Penner starts, she can nail down the exact numbers for the end of the fiscal year, as well as predict a budget for next year.
By June 30, the district will have spent approxi-mately $55 million, but the budgeted amount was only $54 million, Huddleston said.
Earlier this year, Huddleston realized the district had been over-
spending by at least $1 million for the past five years.
“We can no longer spend at the rate we’ve been spending,” he said. “It’s not a good message, but I believe this is the right path.”
He intends to start the budgeting process by set-ting aside one percent of the total budget for the fund balance to help rein-state a healthy financial state in the district.
He said the district needs to have $5 million at any given time to be healthy financially.
However, school board member Keith Hudson
said during the workshop that he felt previous school of ficials weren’t over-spending, but were doing what they could to help the district.
“Bottom line is we kept the ship afloat, Terry,” he said. “We weren’t wasting money. We weren’t throw-ing money away. We were educating children.”
Most of the board mem-bers — like Stephanie Finnell and Dana Brady — said the choices made by Huddleston have set the district on the right path.
“The increased commu-nication, along with the budget and the efforts of everyone involved, are def-
initely going to create an improvement next year,” Finnell said.
School board chairman Steve Nelson estimated that the total district budget has dropped $11 million since 2007. With such a decrease in funds, he asked how the school board couldn’t expect to handle things dif-ferently than they had in the past. He agreed with Hudson that the board had not been spending frivo-lously in the past.
“These are tight times,” Hudson said. “We need to get the finance director in here to figure out where we are. I want that to hap-pen quickly.”

The American troops who fought in World War II have been called “the greatest generation” (as in the title of a book about them written by television’s Tom Brokaw).
Alas, because of a decision made 40 years ago, today there is no equivalent of those soldiers, sailors and airmen who fought so bravely to help our allies thwart the evil ambi-tions of villains like Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo.
In 1973, conscription – more popularly called the draft – ended and since then the United States has relied exclusively on an all-volunteer military. This has brought about huge changes, and left the heavy lifting to a smaller segment of the American public.
In a recent issue of the New York Times, Karl W. Elkenberry, a retired Army lieutenant general who commanded American forces in Afghanistan and later served as our nation’s ambassador there, and David M. Kennedy, a distinguished history professor, presented an essay in which they argued that the absence of the draft has dangerously widened the gap between the American people and their armed forces.
“For nearly two generations, no American has been obligated to join up, and few do,” they wrote. “Less than 0.5 percent of the pop-ulation serves in the armed forces, compared with more than 12 percent during World War II.
“Even fewer of the privileged and powerful shoulder arms.”
Thus the burden today is borne by those who don’t have access to the advantages of privilege and power. And they are further removed from our political sector than was the case in the past.
“In 1975, 70 percent of members of Congress had some military service; today, just 20 percent do, and only a handful of their children are in uniform,” Elkenberry and Kennedy pointed out.
One result is that “so many officers have sons and daughters serving that they speak, with pride and anxiety, about war as a ‘family business.’ Here are the makings of a self-per-petuating military caste, sharply segregated from the larger society and with its enlisted ranks disproportionately recruited from the disadvantaged. History suggests that such scenarios don’t end well,” the authors observed.

The scope of the govern-ment’s eavesdropping on Americans is breathtak-ing, with revelations of such Orwellian import
they should frighten us into burn-ing at the stake anyone involved in information technology.
But of course that would be impractical, because we all have capitulated to the IT age with an enthusiasm that ultimately may be our downfall, leaving no one to strike the match. Besides, the dis-closure that nearly every commu-nication we’ve had in our daily lives in much of the last decade has been monitored by the National Security Agency doesn’t seem to have caused much more than a shrug from the average citizen. Are we not safer, after all, from the terrorists that lurk around every corner from Portland to Portland than we might otherwise be without such ability?
Well, at least that’s what we are assured by our president and those he has put in charge of programs that have assembled what report-edly is enough data on you and me to fill a quin-trillion pages -- how many ever that is. They defend this by saying it is a legally autho-rized intrusion into our privacy that includes safeguards of the judiciary and Congress to protect us from another 9-11 -- which, they add, it has done on more than one occasion without enumerating the instances.
That is all well and good. But please explain how that assurance of careful oversight can be verified, when the very existence of this massive intrusion has never been a matter of public debate in or out of Congress and one court is
allowed to authorize the surveil-lance. The 11-member court hears only the government’s arguments and operates in an atmosphere of secrecy. Most of the time, one judge makes the decision. And no rebut-tal is permitted. The result is that requests are rarely denied.
It is interesting to note once again that when running for his current office, a young Sen. Barack Obama roundly condemned the very pro-grams he now defends. But then a Republican was in the White House. I wonder if Obama now understands what Kermit the Frog has reminded us again and again: It isn’t easy being green -- or president.
This is our government. While we always need to be wary, we should not fear it. There is a need for clas-sified programs and a watchful eye in an increasingly violent world. However, it is only a tiny distance between what is permissible under our system and what verges on des-potism.
Big Brother can assure us all he wants that the intrusions are mini-mal. We have only his word for that and there is seemingly no way to dispute it without facts that are kept from us. On the one hand, no one wants our enemies to know what we are doing to thwart them. That’s understood. On the other hand, built into the system is the principle
that the price of our liberty may sometimes be high.
We should point out that suspi-cions about the two who allegedly bombed the Boston Marathon seem to have fallen through the cracks, although the Russians had warned us about the older, key brother. Were his communications lost in the vast mountain of material downloaded on to the NSA’s super-secret computers in its super-secret headquarters in the until-now super-secret programs that the entire Congress knew of but couldn’t talk about? We probably will never know the answer to that. We do know the ball was dropped.
None of this can be good for a democracy that prides itself in pro-tecting the privacy of its citizens as well as their lives. We should trust those whom we elect to guard us from these governmental invasions. In his “Republic,” Plato wondered, as did Roman philosopher Juvenal before him, “Who shall guard the guardians?” It’s a question the founders of this republic contem-plated in their system of checks and balances.
It is a tricky one when threats to our well-being seem everywhere. The emphasis in this case is bal-ance. How can we maintain a sem-blance of security while at the same time preserve our freedoms? Who will make sure there is a guard watching our guardians? The press? Yes, but it, too, has fallen victim to the IT invasion.

A troubling military gap
Christie just playing the part
Gov. Chris Christie appealed to a national audience as a non-politician politician. Considering the state
he governs is New Jersey this novel judgment seemed like a chemically aided suspension of disbelief.
But the big man had undeniable appeal. Like most American males, he fought and mostly lost a battle with his weight, although surgery may help correct that. He’s the kind of guy you’d like to see pull up to the bar stool next to you, perhaps why he’s a rare successful Republican in a blue state.
When Superstorm Sandy dev-astated the state’s vital seashore-resort industry, he personally guid-ed President Barack Obama on a tour of the damage, and by the end of the walkabout the two were get-ting along like old Army buddies.
When Christie profusely thanked the president for his speedy and generous response, the veins in the foreheads of hard-core Republican ideologues began to throb.
And he was refreshingly neither
slick nor glib. When a woman at a town-hall meeting asked how he could send his children to private school while cutting back on public education, he shot back, “None of your business!”
When the zanies at the Conservative Political Action Conference in February snubbed Christie by not even inviting him to attend, let alone speak, he was already considered by mainstream Republicans and many fascinated Democrats as a 2016 presidential possibility.
But Garden State politics are not that easy.
Long-serving Sen. Frank Lautenberg died Monday with 18 months left in his term, too long to just leave the office vacant. Christie, saying that New Jersey voters deserved the opportunity to name a replacement right away, set a spe-cial election for Oct. 16, just three weeks before the general election.
The Newark Star Ledger called it “a shameless move that will waste at last $12 million and risk the integ-rity of the vote. For him to pres-
ent it as a high-minded attempt to empower voters shows what nerve the guy has.” Nerve tends to play well in New Jersey.
Cory Booker, the popular, char-ismatic and Democratic mayor of Newark, might be on those ballots. Booker would draw a big Democratic turnout, particularly among minorities and women, dim-ming the luster of Christie’s own re-election in which he is hoping to win by an impressive landslide, lay-ing the groundwork for 2016....
Christie did appoint an interim GOP senator, the state’s attorney general, Jeffrey Chiesa, but only until the October election. Chiesa, a longtime Christie ally, says he will not run for the full term. Not a bad deal: For 4-1/2 months of work, Chiesa will have the honorific “Senator” for the rest of his life.
Say this for Christie: You can take the politician out of New Jersey, but you can’t take the New Jersey poli-tics out of the man.

said. Richard wouldn’t say whether Whitlock has rela-tives or other ties to this part of Florida but asked the public for information on finding him.
Whitlock is wanted on charges of attempted homi-cide, attempted robbery, aggravated assault and con-spiracy for his alleged role in the attack on Adams in Pittsburgh, and Seifert said Whitlock should be “con-sidered armed and danger-ous.”
Two other men, Dquay Means, 26, and Michael Paranay, 25, were jailed on similar charges stemming from the stabbing. They were arrested two days after the June 1 attack.
Seifert said Whitlock has a history of firearms vio-lations and violence. If a member of the public spots Whitlock, Seifert said, do not approach him, but con-tact law enforcement.
According to a criminal complaint, the suspects tried to rob Adams as he left a restaurant on Pittsburgh’s club- and bar-laden South Side before 3 a.m. and tried to steal his vehicle.
Police contend Means held Adams at gunpoint while Whitlock stabbed him and Paranay sucker-punched him.
Adams had surgery for stab wounds to his leg and forearm and has said he expects to recover by train-
ing camp July 26. The 6-foot-7, 345-pound lineman is in his second year with the Steelers after being drafted out of Ohio State.
Adams is penciled in as the starting right tackle but is being replaced in orga-nized team activities and this week’s minicamp by fellow second-year lineman Kelvin Beachum.

Students at Florida Gateway College will not see a tuition increase for 2013-14.
At its monthly meeting Tuesday, the FGC Board of Trustees opted to keep tuition prices the same as in 2012-13. The cost
per credit hour, with fees included, is $102.32 for in-state students.
FGC President Dr. Charles Hall said students are facing higher costs at every turn and shouldn’t have to worry about the cost of their education increasing as well.

those called for jury duty for their per-severance and willingness to serve as jurors before he excused them.
“I have never had a case when the jury selection has gong this far into the evening day after day after day,” he said.
Attorneys from the State Attorney’s
Office and the Public Defender’s Office said they reached a consensus and they collectively asked Circuit Judge Paul Bryan to bring 10 poten-tial jurors from the third group back at 8:30 a.m. today for additional inter-views. Other potential jurors from the first and second groups are sched-uled to return at 10 a.m.
Attorneys are trying to narrow the
pool of potential jurors down to a panel of 12, with four alternates.
Once a jury is seated, testimony will get under way in Franklin’s trial on first-degree murder and other charges in the March 2012 stabbing death of Columbia County correc-tions officer Sgt. Ruben Thomas III.

A Lake City woman was arrested after she allegedly fired a gun into the air to break up a fight in front of her home Monday night.
Tracie Densie Johnson, 50, 498 NE Martin Luther King St., faces charges of aggravated assualt with a deadly weapon without the intent to kill and discharg-ing a firearm in public, according to a Lake City Police Department arrest report.
At about 9 p.m. Monday, multiple police responded
to Martin L u t h e r King Street for a report-ed dis-turbance. About 50 people had g a t h e r e d
by the time police arrived, the report said.
Natasha Hendon told police she was attacked by her sister, Kumari Young, and another woman, Dinyada Anderson, in front of Johnson’s home, the report said. She had a large bruise on her forehead and her car had been damaged,
it said.According to multiple wit-
nesses, Johnson was stand-ing at the top of the stairs to her home with a gun when she pointed it into the air and fired one round, the report said.
Johnson told police “all she did was tried to break up the fight,” the report said. When police asked if she had a gun, she told them no.
When Officer Ivan Useche told Johnson that even her cousin said she had a gun, Johnson replied, “That’s a lie.”
Police then put Johnson
in handcuffs and in the back of a patrol car. Her husband said he did hear a gunshot, but didn’t see his wife shoot a gun. Albert Johnson told police he didn’t want them to search his home for a gun, the report said.
“Ultimately, the gun was not found,” the report said.
Young and Anderson face charges of battery for their alleged involvement in the fight, the report said.
Johnson was taken to the Columbia County Detention Facility “screaming the whole time,” the report said. Her bond was set at $6,000.

Dear Pharmacist, Please help me and my
daughter. I have hot flash-es, what is the best herbal supplement to help with that? Are there any home remedies for UTIs (urinary tract infections), and finally, what can my daughter do for bloating during her monthly cycle? I’ve heard that drinking more water (not less) helps, but that seems opposite of common sense.
— H.T., Denver, Colo
Answer:One terrific supplement
for hot flashes is sage. You can drink it as a tea, use the spice or for a stronger effect, take it as a dietary supplement like a liquid herbal extracts. Sage has long been valued as an agent for fevers. It could help people with night sweats related to tubercu-losis or babesia infections. As for hot flashes, a study published in 2011 found that sage helped reduced hot flashes by about 50 percent within four weeks, and 64 percent within eight weeks. Sage is well toler-ated. I think it could safely be used with any medica-tion, or substituted if your doctor approves.
Moving on to this uri-nary tract situation. The burning sensation, fre-quency, urgency and pain often come out of nowhere. Chronic sufferers usu-ally have an overgrowth of fungus, such as Candida. Chronic UTIs are often a sign of undiagnosed dia-betes.
Test properly for dia-betes, including serum insulin and a thyroid profile (see my Diabetes Without Drugs book for complete testing information). Now, “Phenazopyradine” a red dye (medication) is sold over-the-counter and can temporarily relieve blad-der pain. Baking soda is a popular, inexpensive home remedy for UTIs, heartburn and gout. It’s not a substitute for medical advice. The recipe is one teaspoon baking soda in one cup of cold water, just mix and drink. Baking soda is very alkaline, so it neu-tralizes your acidic urine which is what causes the pain/burning during a UTI. My column is educational, it’s not medical advice Ask your doctor what’s safe for you, and be aware, baking soda is contraindicated for people with high blood pressure, nor is it recom-
mended long-term.About your daughter’s
bloating... Like many women, this annoying
symptom provides the per-fect excuse to wear sweat pants for five days straight. I would drink more water (not less), but I’d avoid carbonated water and soda pop. If you really want to beat the bloat, limit gassy foods like beans and cab-bage during that week. Reduce salty foods. If you crave them that’s a sign of low adrenals. Don’t eat any foods that are “sugar-free.”
Number one, I never recommend artificial
sweeteners, and number two, these sugar-free foods (even sugarless gum) might contain sorbitol and maltitol, and those are sugar alcohols. They’re poorly digested by most people, so they increase your symptoms of diges-tive upset, diarrhea and bloating.
By TOM HAYSAssociated Press
NEW YORK — After set-ting off a storm of criticism from abortion rights groups upset that a Democratic president had sided with social conservatives, the Obama administration said it will comply with a judge’s order to allow girls of any age to buy emergency con-traception without prescrip-tions.
But in doing so, at least one opponent of easy access to the contraception thinks the president is buckling to political pressure, rather than making the health of girls a priority.
The Justice Department notified U.S. District Judge Edward Korman on Monday that it will submit a plan for compliance. If he approves
it, the department will drop its appeal of his April rul-ing.
According to the department’s letter to the judge, the Food and Drug Administration has told the maker of the pills to sub-
mit a new drug application with proposed labeling that would permit it to be sold “without a prescription and without age or point-of-sale prescriptions.” The FDA said that once it receives the application, it “intends
to approve it promptly.”Advocates for girls’ and
women’s rights said the fed-eral government’s decision to comply with the judge’s ruling could be a move for-ward for “reproductive jus-tice” if the FDA acts quickly and puts emergency con-traception over the counter without restriction.
“It’s about time that the administration stopped opposing women having access to safe and effec-tive birth control,” Annie Tummino, coordinator of the National Women’s Liberation and lead plaintiff in a lawsuit over unrestrict-ed access to the morning-after pill, said in an emailed statement.
She said women and girls should have “the absolute right to control our bod-ies without having to ask a doctor or a pharmacist for permission.”
NARAL Pro-Choice America President Ilyse Hogue welcomed the deci-
sion by the Obama admin-istration.
“By making emergency contraception available to women of all ages, the FDA is taking an important step to reduce unintended preg-nancies and put women in control of their futures,” Hogue said in a statement.
But an opponent of the contraception plan, at the anti-abortion Family Research Council, criticized the government for drop-ping the appeal.
“We’re very concerned and disappointed at the same time because what we see here is the government caving to political pressure instead of putting first the health and safety of girls (and) parental rights,” said
Anna Higgins, director of the council’s Center for Human Dignity.
The government had appealed the judge’s under-lying April 5 ruling, which ordered emergency con-traceptives based on the hormone levonorgestrel be made available without a prescription, over the coun-ter and without point-of-sale or age restrictions.
It had asked the judge to suspend the effect of that ruling until the appeals court could decide the case. But the judge declined, saying the government’s decision to restrict sales of the morning-after pill was “politically motivated, scien-tifically unjustified and con-trary to agency precedent.”

Tebow signs with Patriots
Associated Press
FOXBOROUGH — According to Fort White High head coach and for-mer Florida Gator player Demetric Jackson, former Gator quarterback Tim Tebow may have finally landed in the perfect spot.
Tebow is back on the field with an NFL team — the New England Patriots.
The Patriots announced the signing of the for-mer Jets quarterback on Tuesday, six weeks after he was cut by New York and just in time for the
start of the three-day Patriots minicamp that runs through Thursday.
Jackson said it’s an opportunity for the quar-terback to get his career on track.
“I think it’s a great move for Tebow,” Jackson said. “I’m a Dolphins fan, but I think it’s a benefit for the team and the player. I don’t see him playing a lot of QB, but it will help the team prepare for some things that they don’t see. Tebow can also run the Wildcat and that’s a completely different look than teams that play the Patriots are used to. With their injury issues with the Gronk (Rob Gronkowski) and Aaron Hernandez, he may even
play a little tight end.”Tebow practiced with
veteran New England starter Tom Brady and backup Ryan Mallett. The newest Patriot wore No. 5, not his familiar 15 — which belongs to Mallett — on his shorts and helmet. The QBs wore red jerseys.
“First and foremost, I just want to thank the Patriots for giving me an oppor-tunity. I’m very thankful,” Tebow said on the field after practice. “It’s such an honor to be a Patriot and play for Coach (Bill) Belichick and for Coach (Josh) McDaniels.”

Ulsh resigns as CHS head baseball coach
By BRANDON [email protected]
For the second time in under a year, Columbia High will be looking for a new varsity baseball coach.
Jonathan Ulsh handed in his resignation after
one season and a playoff appearance for the Tigers.
“He’s resigning due to personal reasons for the best interest of the program,” Columbia assistant principal Donnie Harrison said.
The Tigers immediate-ly advertised the job on the Florida High School Athletic Associated web-site looking for a candidate with prior head coaching experience.
“So far, we haven’t had
anyone blowing our doors off,” Harrison said. “We received two resumes on Monday, but we’ll soon start to put together a committee. We’re going to run the job for a week and we’ll look at it again around July 8.”
Ulsh expanded on his resignation.
“I’m going through some family things, and this is a tough time,” Ulsh said. “I’m just dealing with some stuff.”
Tigers looking for replacement by early July.
Indians back to the grind for summerBy BRANDON [email protected]
FORT WHITE — Another year officially kicked off for Fort White High football as the Indians took back to the practice field this week.
With around 40 players, coach Demetric Jackson is looking for more of a turn-out, but he’s pleased with the work being put in by the players in attendance.
“We’re going pretty good,” Jackson said. “We’re turning the heat up on them a little bit, but I’m pleased with the effort.”
Jackson is looking for more players to show up before the end of the sum-mer, however, looking for nearly 60 players.
“We’d like to get some-where around 52 to 57 guys and I’d feel comfortable,” Jackson said. “Right now, we are having about 40 showing up in the morning with another six or seven guys showing up at night. The goal is to get them all to show up in the morn-ing.”
Still, considering the workouts are voluntary, Jackson isn’t too set back
by the numbers.“It’s not mandatory, but
we give them incentives to show up,” Jackson said. “We do things like put their names on the back of their jerseys, give them spirit patches and cleats.”
Jackson said the main portion of guys missing is the junior varsity players, something he’d like to see change.
“It’s not exactly what I’d want,” Jackson said. “But the key is that we’re work-ing hard and we’re getting a lot of extra effort out of them this summer.”

The inaugural Rountree-Moore 3 player Scramble Championship provided an exciting Saturday.
The champions of the inaugural event were decided in a playoff, as the team of Steve Smithy, Tim Bagley and Michael Creech prevailed after two playoff holes over the team of Mike McCranie, Donald Roberts and Ed Higgs to take home the big payday.
The team of Brett Suggs, Phillip Russell and Luther Huffman also prevailed in a playoff, over the team of Kevin Roberts, Robbie Kirby and Pete Sapienza to take third place. Suggs chipped in from off the green on the first play-off hole for an eagle 2 to decide the playoff.
Quail Heights Men’s Golf Association would like to thank all the participants,
sponsors, volunteers, and the Ladies Golf Association for making the tournament a huge success.
Wednesday Blitz win-ners: first (tie)-Randy Heavrin and Chris Sanders +3; third-Tim Tortorice +2.
Skin winners were Larry Boone, Tony Johnson, and Gerald Smithy and Heavrin.
Closest to the pin winners were Boone on No. 3, Tony Kent on No. 5, Don Horn on No. 11 and Tortorice on No. 17.
The Friday Dogfight was a runaway as Brian Shead turned in a score of +7 to take first-place honors. Randy Heavrin, the only other player to pull his
points, posted a +1 to take second place. Jack Tuggle took third with -3.
Skin winners were Larry Boone, Tim Tortorice, Ralph Minster, Shead and Heavrin (2).
Closest to pin win-ners were Bob Jaeger on No. 3, Gerald Smithy on No. 5, Tortorice on No. 15 and Boone on No. 17.
Wednesday Scramble winners were Jason Watts, Ricky Crawford and Cliff Kirby. The team had two chances at the rollover money pot on Nos. 5 and 6. The lucky hole pulled was No. 9, so the pot grows big-ger and rolls over to today at 5 p.m.
Quail Heights Junior Golf Camps are 8-11 a.m. June 17-21 and July 15-19. Snacks and drinks are pro-vided. Call the pro shop at 752-3339 for information.
Victory in the 27-team Relay for Life Tournament came down to a scorecard regression between two groups tied at net 50.
The nod went to the team of Bucky Nash, Chris Hewitt, Nick Crawford and Adam Garner over the team of Scott Lancaster, James Rick, Perry Humphries and James Parker. The three-some of Billy King, Scott Kirkman and Glenn Roberts took third place with a net 55.
Skill shot winners were Norbie Ronsonet for closest to the pin, Allen Hunter for longest drive and Charles Timmons in the putting contest.
In the Elks Lodge scram-ble, the team of Austin Lawrence, David Crawford and Ron Bradtmueller scored a clear win with a net 54.

Mike Jacobs (+8) took first place in the A flight of Sunday’s blitz with a rare birdie on the tough 10th hole. Mike Gough was a shot back in second. Buddy Slay and Don Howard tied for third with +6.

Rivers also had chip-ins on Nos. 1 and 9. Gloria Rowley had one on No. 2.

DEAR ABBY: My part-ner of 12 years and I are well-educated, successful career men. Every few months my mom comes to visit, and we all enjoy spending time together.
The last few visits were not so great. We caught Mom snooping in our bed-room and our home office. When we confronted her, she got upset and stormed out of the room in tears. I have asked her to respect our privacy, but her response is that she -- as the mother -- is the one who deserves respect.
We recently had some renovations done to the house that included locks on our bedroom and office doors. When neither of us are home, the doors stay locked. Nothing was said about it during Mom’s last visit, but last week we received a note from her telling us not to come for our usual summer visit. I tried to call her, but she won’t answer.
Today I talked with my aunt (Mom’s sister), who told me Mom is furious over the locks. My aunt also expressed disappoint-ment in me for “shutting Mom out.” I don’t under-stand how I could be in the wrong, but it seems my whole family feels I am. Please advise. -- IN A JAM IN ST. PETE
DEAR IN A JAM: Although your mother
deserves respect, it is hard to respect someone who goes through one’s bedroom and office after having been asked not to. You may be her son, but you are also an adult and have the right to some privacy. What Mom is doing is the equivalent of throwing a tantrum. You were not shutting her out; you were drawing the line. Regardless of what your aunt said, you owe no one an apology.
Let’s hope this storm blows over soon. And as to your summer holiday plans, an Alaskan cruise might be a lovely change from the humidity of Florida and the steam com-ing from wherever your mother lives.
** ** **
DEAR ABBY: My grand-mother was very poor, but she was generous with what she had. As a child, I noticed that most of the gifts she received were regifted to others. At first, it upset me because I spent a lot of time choosing a
“perfect” gift for her. Then I realized she was enjoying the gift twice. She loved receiving it, but it gave her even more pleasure to pass it on to someone else to enjoy when she couldn’t afford to buy a present on her limited income.
I get so tired of people whining about “regifting.” Instead of being happy that someone gave them some-thing, people worry about how much was spent. (I’m willing to bet the real rea-son for the upset is that the regift can’t be returned or exchanged.) People who don’t want to receive regifts should let the giv-ers know so they won’t waste their generosity on them in the future. -- THE JOY OF GIVING
DEAR JOY: I see the issue differently, because I suspect that some com-plainers may have con-fused the monetary value of the item with how much they -- the recipients -- are valued in the relationship. As you point out -- and I agree -- it really IS the spir-it in which a gift is given that counts.

BABY BLUES
HOROSCOPES
DEAR ABBY
ARIES (March 21-April. 19): Take on what you find exciting and inspiring and walk away from anyone or anything that has a nega-tive spin. It’s important to take action and be a partic-ipant if you want to expand your friendships and opportunities. ★★★★★
TAURUS (April. 20-May 20): Voice your opinion and get things accom-plished. Once you put your plans in motion, you will get everyone around you to show more enthusiasm. Love and romance are on the rise, and sharing com-mon interests will bring you closer together. ★★
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t reveal your thoughts, especially if it pertains to a work-related matter. Size up the situa-tion you face and deter-mine what you have to do to show your talent and value to whatever job you do. Moderation will be nec-essary. ★★★★
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Step outside your comfort zone and give a unique spin to what-ever you do. Show your strength as well as your determination to be at your very best. Relationships will undergo changes that are unexpected. Nurture the partnerships you cher-ish. ★★★
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):
Embrace change, but don’t let others dictate what you decide to do. Act on your own merit and offer what you feel comfortable parting with. Keep your money in a safe place and restrict your generosity to physical, not financial assistance. ★★★
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Take care of business in order to avoid being crit-icized. An emotional prob-lem due to an investment, money matter or health situation must be taken care of in an unorthodox manner. Disillusionment regarding a partnership is likely. ★★★
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Proceed with caution when dealing with both personal and professional relationships. You have options and should take the time to learn, study and practice in order to be at your top level of perfor-mance. ★★★★
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Do something that will allow you to explore an unusual or unique cre-ative idea or talent. Getting together with people you find inspiring or would like to collaborate with will bring you one step closer to your goal. Love is on the
rise. ★★SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
22-Dec. 21): A carefree attitude may help entertain others, but it probably won’t get you what you want in the end. Change can be good, but it must be made for the right reasons. Evaluate your current relationships and make amends where necessary. ★★★★★
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Look at your investments and make any alterations that will ensure your financial safety. Sizing down or making a wise purchase that will grow in value will set the stage for years to come. Don’t be fooled by a slick sales pitch. ★★★
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Socialize, network and consider the changes you can make to improve your future. A solid partnership will help you stay on track. A creative idea or a service you can offer will turn into a moneymaker if you pres-ent it properly. ★★★
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A short trip will lead to new prospects that can combine your talent, skills and knowledge. A com-mitment to a project or a partnership looks posi-tive. Leave room for love and romance as your day comes to a close. ★★★
