Historic ship to become new Jacksonville museumJACKSONVILLE
The Jacksonville City Council has agreed to allow an historic U.S. Navy guided missile destroyer to
be moored on the banks of the St. Johns River, where it will be used as a maritime museum.
The council voted 16-1 to allow the Downtown Investment Authority to move the USS Adams to town.
The ship will be moored by the vacant Maxwell House plant.
Joe Snowberger, commodore of the Jacksonville Historic Ship Association, says the Navy should turn the ship over within six months.
The group will then work to refurbish the vessel with the goal of displaying it on
the river by the end of 2015.
2 killed, 6 injured in semi-truck, van crash
ORLANDO — Two people are dead and six more were taken to a central Florida hospital following an early morn-ing crash between a passenger van and a semi-truck.
Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Wanda Diaz said in a statement that the agency responded to the crash on Interstate 95 in Ormond Beach on Saturday morning. The two fatalities were both adults. The six peo-ple injured were taken to Halifax Hospital.
All lanes were able to remain open to traffic with the exception of one north-
bound lane.
Man charged with bomb threat at federal office
PANAMA CITY — A Panama City man was jailed after authorities say he threat-ened to blow up federal offices located in the Panhandle city.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office announced Friday that charges had been filed against 38-year-old Johnathon Mathew Garrett.
Garrett on Wednesday allegedly called the Social Security Administration offices angrily several times and used profanity. Officials say he told an employee during one call that he was going to “come down there” and “blow” the building up.
Garrett was eventually arrested at his home. He could face up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine if he is convict-ed of the charges.
Boy, 2, struck and killed by truck near Tampa
TAMPA — Authorities say a 2-year-old boy died after being struck by a Tampa water department truck at an apartment complex.
Tampa police spokeswoman Janelle McGregor says Demetric Laynton darted between two vehicles Thursday. The truck-er wasn’t able to stop before hitting him.

QUICK HITS
NEW YORK
Chelsea Clinton said Friday she is quitting her job as
a reporter at NBC News, citing increased work at the Clinton Foundation and the imminent birth of her first child.
Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton’s daughter had been working at the net-work since 2011, sporadi-cally doing feature stories on people or organizations doing public-spirited work. Politico magazine reported earlier this year that NBC was paying her $600,000 a year.
“I loved watching the ‘Making a Difference’ stories about remarkable people and organizations making a profound differ-ence in our country and our world,” Clinton said in a statement posted on her Facebook page. “I am
grateful NBC gave me the opportunity to continue this important legacy.”
She was initially hired to do stories for Brian Williams’ “Rock Center” newsmagazine, but that program was canceled. Her work occasionally appeared on NBC’s “Nightly News.”
Her exit removes some potential awkwardness for the network if her moth-er runs for president in 2016. NBC made certain to keep Clinton off the air around the time her mother was making media appearances to promote a book, to avoid any appear-ance of conflict. NBC also received some criticism when stories about her salary appeared; the net-work didn’t comment on the reports.

Scott pitches new round of tax cutsBy JIM TURNER The News Service of Florida
TALLAHASSEE—A rollback in vehi-
cle-registration fees, the key part of a
$500 million package of tax and fee cuts
approved this spring, kicked in Monday
as Gov. Rick Scott starts to campaign for a
new round of tax cuts.
The election-year reduction in vehi-
cle-registration fees (SB 156), one of two
new laws that went into effect Monday,
is expected to save motorists $17 to $25 a
year depending on the size of the vehicles.
The other new law (SB 242) is intended
to keep people from stealing the identities
of children. The Keeping I.D. Safe (KIDS)
Act, backed by Agriculture Commissioner
Adam Putnam, would allow parents or
guardians to open a file in their child’s
name with a major consumer credit bureau
and then immediately put a freeze on the
account.
However, the reduction in vehicle-reg-
istration fees will be the law highlighted
over the next two weeks as Scott goes
out on his latest campaign tour, this time
hop-scotching the state with a pledge to
cut $1 billion in taxes over the next two
years.
At each stop, Scott will maintain sup-
port for a number of sales-tax shopping
holidays, along with touting plans to cut
the communications-services tax imposed
on cable and phone services, eliminate a
manufacturing sales tax, phase out both
the corporate income tax and a sales
tax on commercial leases and enact a
constitutional amendment that would pre-
vent residential property taxes from being
increased when home values don’t go up.
Little information was immediately avail-
able Friday about how each cut could
impact the state budget or local govern-
ment revenues. The planned tax-cut tour
follows similar campaign runs in which
Scott has pledged to maintain or increase
funding for transportation, the environ-
ment and schools.
During the tour, scheduled to touch
down in 28 cities, Scott will also play up that
the vehicle-registration fees were raised as
part of a 2009 law signed by Democratic
gubernatorial challenger Charlie Crist,
then the Republican governor.
Crist’s campaign sent out a release seek-
ing to re-label Scott’s campaign stops as
the “empty promises tax tour.”
Scott considered the vehicle-registration
fee reduction one of his “critical” priorities
during the spring legislative session.
The cut to vehicle-registration fees is
expected to trim state revenue by $309.1
million during the current 2014-15 fiscal
year and $394.6 million in later years, when
the cuts will be in effect for a full 12 months.
The vehicle fee change was included
as part of the wide-ranging, $500 million
“patchwork of awesomeness” tax package,
so named by one of its chief architects,
House Finance & Tax Chairman Ritch
Workman, R-Melbourne. Among the items
in the package were sales-tax holidays, a
reduction in the insurance premium tax
on bail-bond premiums, and the perma-
nent elimination of sales taxes on college
meal plans, therapeutic pet foods, child car
seats and bicycle helmets for kids.
Scott has made cutting taxes and fees a
major focus of his administration and his
re-election campaign.
The Republican first pledged to elim-
inate the state’s corporate income tax
when he ran in 2010, along with calling for
a $1.4 billion property-tax cut as part of a
sweeping economic plan he said would not
reduce school funding.
Efforts to cut taxes on commercial leases
and the communications-services tax have
stalled in the Legislature in recent years.
And Scott in 2013 requested a perma-
nent tax cut for manufacturing machinery.
Instead he had to wait until the final week
of the legislative session before getting
lawmakers to include a three-year tempo-
rary cut as part of a larger economic-incen-
tives package.
Jack Hibbert Luffman
Mr. Jack Hibbert Luffman, 92, of Lake City, passed away peacefully on Friday August 29, 2014 at the North Florida Regional Medical Center in Gainesville after an extended illness. He was born in Oxford, Mississippi on June 6, 1922 to the late Albert Edward and Nellie “Nell” Adams Luffman. He has lived in Lake City since 1988, having moved here from Miami, Florida. He was an Air Traffic Controller for the Feder-al Aviation Administration for 26 years and was a member of the Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church. He served in the United States Coast Guard form 1942-1946. He loved to go fishing and boating in his spare time. He is preceded in death by his sister: Betty Carter. He is survived by his loving wife of 68 years: Mae Luffman of Lake City, FL; son: Alan Luffman of Gulfport, MS and daughter: Jan Marie Luffman Norris (George L.) of Louisa, KY; a sister: Peggy Simon of Melbourne, FL; granddaughter: Jennifer Luffman of Gulfport, MS; two grandsons: Adam and Derek (Destiny) Norris of Lake City, FL. Several loving niec-es and nephews also survive. Funeral services for Mr. Luff-man will be conducted on Wednesday September 3, 2014 at 10 A.M. in the Wesley Me-morial United Methodist Church with Pastor Louie Mabrey offici-ating. Entombment will follow at Forest Lawn Memorial Gardens. The family will receive friends from 9-10 A.M. (one hour prior to the services) at the church. In lieu of flowers, the family re-quests that donations be made to any veterans fund or VA Ad-ministration programs that ben-efits or helps veterans. Arrange-ments are under the direction and care of the DEES-PAR-RISH FAMILY FUNERAL HOME, 458 S. Marion Ave., Lake City, 32025. Please sign the online guestbook at Par-rishFamilyFuneralHome.com
OBITUARIES
The sheriff’s office SWAT and hos-
tage negotiations teams made numer-
ous attempts to contact Tolley but
failed, according to an LCPD news
release.
After evacuating area residents
authorities entered the residence,
where they found the young girls
unharmed.
The girls were turned over to fam-
ily members.
Scott Bennett, who said he planned
to stay at his mother’s house for the
night while she was out of town, was
turned away when he tried to enter
the neighborhood late Saturday.
“I drove up the hill, saw a ton of
cops and knew something had gone
wrong,” Bennett said. “The cops told
me there had been a high profile
incident. And when I told them I was
a few houses down on the right, they
thought for a second it had happened
at my mom’s house, but it turned out
to be the next-door neighbor.”
Bennett said he estimated there
was a police car every 30 to 40 yards
along the street, and said he decided
to leave after waiting 30 minutes.
Although his mother did not know
Tolley that well, he said, “I heard the
guy had some issues with his family
life.”
While some residents were out of
town for the holiday weekend, others
were still visibly shaken Monday and
declined comment to a reporter.
One long-time resident, who
declined to be identified, said the
incident had rocked the normally
quiet neighborhood.
“Most everyone’s been here forev-
er — 35, 40 years,” she said. “We all
know each other.”
However, she said she did not
know Tolley very well.
The Columbia County Property
Appraiser’s website showed Tolley
bought the home in July 2010.
Police did not say what kind of
weapon he had.

Who knew there were that many Teslas quietly motoring through our town any given day?
The folks at Tesla, that’s who.They had the good sense to build a
charging station, called a “supercharger,” out at the I-75/US 90 interchange, and it’s been quite a hit.
So much so, a Tesla Motors Club chap-ter has decided to hold a meeting right here in Lake City next Saturday.
How cool is that?Electric cars aren’t for everyone, of
course.Teslas can only go 250 miles or so
before a 30-minute recharge is required.And even with those kinks one day
worked out, nobody’s saying electric cars will solve all our energy problems down the road.
We still have to produce the electricity to power these machines, after all, and that’s a whole different set of issues.
Still, it’s a nice diversion, at least for the time being.
And there are more substantial benefits as well.
Having a supercharger here gives our town some exposure to folks who might not otherwise have reason to stop.
Today it’s just a quick bite.Maybe next time they’ll want to stay a
while.In any case, welcome to all.

On eradicating apparently annoying Southern accent
T O D A Y I N H I S T O R Y
On this date:
In 1789, the United States Treasury Department was established.
In 1864, during the Civil War, Union Gen. William T. Sherman’s forces occupied Atlanta.
In 1901, Vice President Theodore Roosevelt offered the advice, “Speak softly and carry a big stick” in a speech at the Minnesota State Fair.
In 1935, a Labor Day hurricane slammed into the Florida Keys, claiming more than 400 lives.
In 1944, during World War II, Navy pilot Lt. George Herbert Walker Bush was shot down by Japanese forces as he completed a bombing run over the Bonin Islands.
Dear Jennifer Adams:
I read in the paper about your book, “Say Goodbye to Your
Southern Accent,” and I’m much obliged for your advice. But don’t forget that most advice is as useless as a steering wheel on a mule.
It’s too late for me to change, Miss Jennifer. I’m practically retired and what I sound like is not that important anymore, except when I call the cable company and the robot lady can’t understand me.
But it might not be too late for my four grandkids, who have Southern accents to varying degrees. Maybe you could work with them. We certainly don’t want their accents to hold them back, as you say drawls are wont to do. If I hadn’t been strapped with my accent, why, I could’ve been serv-ing up corn beef and cabbage in some deli in New York City. But, as I said, it’s too late for me.
I appreciate that you have a master’s degree in speech pathol-ogy, and I know that comes in handy when you’re helping some-one exterminate a Southern accent. Matter of fact, one of our daughters is a speech pathologist, and she’s done mighty well in the speech
business despite her having a somewhat noticeable down-home sound. Without that accent, I bet she could be working with you.
If I may quote from this newspa-per story: “Taking the South out of a client’s mouth means shortening vowels, sticking G’s back on the end of verbs and losing colloquial-isms like ‘What in the Sam Hill?’”
What I want to know is, what in the Sam Hill is wrong with “what in the Sam Hill?” I normally don’t go around saying that, but it’s a perfectly good expression. If I had time, I’d tell you what in the Sam Hill it’s all about. By the way, I’m right particular about putting G’s on the back end of verbs, except when I don’t feel like doin’ it.
You see, Miss Jennifer, a Southerner has a mind of his own, and he won’t cotton to someone try-
ing to change his speech pattern. If you don’t know what “I’m fixin’ to” means, well, that’s your problem. You need to study up. If you’ll pick a day, you’re welcome to drop by the house for a lesson or two. We’ll put it down where the goats can get it. I’ll teach you how to under-stand Southern, and you can write another book. You can call it “Kiss My Grits.”
The point is, Miss Jennifer, folks are different in different parts of the country. That’s just fine. But if books like yours catch on, we’ll all sound like that guy on the 6 o’clock news who wears a spray-on tan and enunciates words to death.
Honestly, ma’am, some of us really appreciate our heritage and value our Southern accents. And we’re bound and determined to keep them.
By the way, forget about working with my grandkids. I was just pull-ing your leg.
Fondly,Phil Hudgins
The excitement is building. Only a few more weeks until the long-awaited mid-term elections, which Republicans
hope will mean they take over the Senate and smite President Barack Obama even harder.
And, so, we wonder, what is impassioning the voters who will make this momentous decision? Is it the killer terrorists of the so-called Islamic State of Syria and Iraq? Is it the treatment of young black men by police? Is it Obama’s milk-toast version of “bringing it on”? The bor-der crisis with young children being sent on hazardous journeys to the United States without their parents?
For millions, especially in tea party strongholds, it is the riveting matter of the fate of the Export-Import Bank of the United States.
I do not jest.It’s sort of hard to figure this out.
Have Americans suddenly taken a strong new interest in arcane economics? Or are tea partiers jousting with an issue they don’t really understand, just as they tried to ruin the U.S. reputation as a good investment by preventing the country from paying its legitimate debts. (Not understanding that rais-ing the debt ceiling applies to debts incurred and is not a license to incur new debts.)
Most countries have export-import banks to make loans to foreigners to buy their products. The U.S. bank charter written in the Depression says its purpose is to assist in financing the export of U.S.
goods and services to international markets. If Congress does nothing by September 30, the bank will run out of money and close its doors.
Hurrah, say some conservative Republicans, who argue the bank is a monster running amok, one form of the kind of corporate welfare and crony capitalism that they oppose.
Whoa, say most Democrats who rightly think the bank could be reined in but who say its demise would hurt thousands of American businesses and cost U.S. jobs when the fragile economic recovery is still struggling to sit up in bed.
But it is not a straight Republican v. Democrat issue. The conserva-tive Heritage Foundation wants the bank shut down while the U.S. Chamber of Commerce says that would be stupid.
The Chamber has a countdown clock on its website and urges busi-ness leaders to write to Congress and “support the bank.” It notes the bank provided $37.4 billion worth of sales of U.S. products in 2013 and account-ed for 200,000 American jobs.
Heritage argues the bank is “beset by mismanagement, dysfunc-
tion, and risk” inevitably the “result of government assuming a function far beyond its proper purview and one that rightly belongs to private business alone.”
Ah, the vagaries of time. Two years ago the bank was reautho-rized with overwhelming bipartisan support. That was then; this is now.
Obama used a radio address to urge support, saying the bank’s demise would mean thousands of big and small businesses would take a “completely unnecessary hit.”
The man who wants to snatch control of the Senate out of Majority Leader Harry Reid’s Democratic hands, Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., opposes reauthorizing the bank.
The bank says, we make a profit, and touts success stories of U.S. com-panies it has aided. For example, the president of Thrustmaster of Texas, Inc., says the bank provided where-withal for multimillion-dollar sales that permitted it to compete on a level playing field with the big guys.
But the bank’s own overseers admit there are problems that need fixing.
There is a chance Congress may do a short-term extension to keep the bank operating until after the election and then work out a better solution. But in the polarized climate on Capitol Hill that’s a long shot.
Election-year politics are so whimsical.
Export-Import Bank fight not exactly a battle royal

Special to the Reporter
FORT WHITE — You
live in a motel room —
for now. Next week you
might be sleeping on the
back seat of a car or on
the couch in an aunt’s
house. Insecurity is con-
stant; sometimes you’re
not even sure if there will
be enough food to keep
you from going to bed
hungry. School? Just mak-
ing it there is a challenge.
Homework might get done
if you can scrounge the
supplies you need and find
a few minutes of peace and
quiet.
For hundreds of chil-
dren in Columbia County,
those are the hard real-
ities of life. Sometimes
homelessness results
from job loss, a house
fire, or natural disaster;
sometimes it’s the result
of a flight from domestic
violence or a child’s run-
ning away from home.
Sometimes it’s a matter of
living doubled up with a
relative for a few months;
sometimes it’s a chronic
problem. Regardless of
the cause or duration, it’s
Dana Huggins’ job to see
that homelessness doesn’t
stand between a child and
school.
“My job description is
simple: if there’s a barrier to
a child’s education caused
by homelessness, it’s my
job to find a way around
it,” Huggins explained.
As the Columbia County
School System’s homeless
education liaison, she and
assistant Joyce Spradley
are at the center of a net-
work dedicated to provid-
ing homeless children and
families with the help they
need. That network stays
busy: during the 2013-14
school year, about 575
children received services
through Huggins’ office.
Attendance mattersProviding homeless
children with access to
education starts with
getting them to school.
Once she becomes aware
of a child’s need through
school guidance or con-
tacts with one of the area’s
social service organiza-
tions, Huggins swings into
action to ensure that child
has transportation to and
from school.
“Usually it’s a matter
of finding out where the
nearest bus stop is and
ensuring that the child
and the parent know when
and where to be there,”
Huggins says. “But some-
times these children move
a lot within the county
during the course of the
school year. When that
happens, they have the
right under the McKinney-
Vento Act to keep attend-
ing the same school they
started in. That means it’s
up to me
to keep
tabs on
them and
m a k e
sure they
know how
to access
s c h o o l
transpor-
t a t i o n
wherever
they are.
Sometimes it means
scrounging up transporta-
tion the best I can if they
move outside a school’s
zone but want to keep
going there. I do whatev-
er it takes. I also monitor
absenteeism to make sure
they don’t miss too many
days.”
Week’s worth of food Huggins’ job doesn’t
end with making sure a
child gets to school reg-
ularly. “Kids can’t learn
when they’re hungry,” she
says. “I make sure that
the children I service are
signed up for the schools’
free meals. That gives
them breakfast and lunch
every school day. We have
local charities that provide
backpacks of food that stu-
dents can take home for
evenings and weekends
and I try to get children
linked to those. In addi-
tion, I’ll refer families to
United Way, Catholic
Charities, or the Christian
Service Center as needed
to get their basic needs
met.”
Huggins makes use of
all these organizations
and more to supply chil-
dren with other basic
needs such as clothing
and school supplies. “We
are blessed to have many
groups in our area that
help provide for these chil-
dren and their families,”
she says. “I can’t meet
every need these children
have myself, but I can usu-
ally find someone who can
through a church, Altrusa,
or some other organiza-
tion.”
Educational needsWith transportation and
basic needs taken care of,
Huggins helps students
access special education
services, gifted and reme-
dial programs, bilingual
education and tutoring
within the schools. She
also helps her students get
involved in programs that
may require extra financial
assistance, finding ways to
work around participation
fees for athletics and help-
ing students with obtain-
ing items like instruments
for band or a uniform for
chorus. “No child should
have to neglect develop-
ing a talent or pursuing an
interest because of home-
lessness,” she said.
Help always availableHomeless children and
their families often have
difficulty getting medical,
dental and mental health
care, adding another layer
of complexity to Huggins’
job. While federal law man-
dates that homeless chil-
dren be allowed to attend
school even if state require-
ments for immunizations
and physicals aren’t met,
it’s in everybody’s best
interests for these chil-
dren to receive the needed
services as soon as pos-
sible. Huggins spends a
good deal of time helping
parents get their children
scheduled for immuniza-
tion clin-
ics and
physicals.
She also
m a k e s
refer rals
as needed
to men-
tal health
p r o f e s -
s i o n a l s ,
preferably
those who
p r o v i d e
in-school
services.
While social work
involving the families
isn’t part of Huggins’ job
description, she knows
from experience that
meeting the families’
needs removes other bar-
riers to children’s educa-
tion. “I refer parents to
other agencies for help all
the time,” she says. “The
new community resource
center in Fort White is
going to be a huge help
because Fort White
Elementary School has
more students needing
homeless services than
any other school in the
county. Fort White High
School is second on the
list. You’d be surprised at
how many kids are living
in tents and campers out
in the woods down there.
With the new center, I
can tell their families that
there will be people right
there in Fort White who
can help them. It will only
be open one day a week,
but it’s more than they
had before.”
In addition to her other
duties, Huggins educates
school staff on homeless-
ness and works with local
advocates for the home-
less. It’s a lot of work, but
her reward is far more
than a paycheck. “Every
year Joyce and I get thank-
you cards and graduation
notices from these kids,”
she says. “Every time we
get a card or run into a par-
ent who tells us how well
their child is doing, it just
thrills us. Knowing that
we’ve helped a child get an
education and find a way to
be successful makes it all
worthwhile.”

Kick-off for the 2014 Great
Suwannee River Cleanup will be
Saturday, Sept. 27 at 9 a.m. at the Joe
Anderson Boat Ramp in Chiefland.
This is the fifth year Current
Problems has hosted a cleanup on
the river.
Last year, divers scoured river
bottoms as volunteers worked on
the river banks to remove literal-
ly thousands of pounds of trash.
There were nearly 600 volunteers
making up 30 separate teams who
cleaned up over 29,000 pounds of
trash. It’s time to do it again this
year.
Join Current Problems for the
start of the cleanup season and enjoy
a free lunch to all volunteers after
the first day of cleaning. Volunteers
are needed for land support, kay-
akers and canoeists to shuttle trash
back to the ramp and work on the
shoreline. Depending on the weath-
er conditions, a dive team may par-
ticipate in the kickoff. Remember,
to volunteer as a diver, you must be
cave-certified.
If you want to participate in the
Sept. 27 kickoff, an RSVP is needed
by Wednesday, Sept. 24.
The 2014 cleanup season will run
September, October, and November,
possible extending into the first
week of December, depending on
the weather conditions.
Go to the event map at http://
tinyurl.com/mwa2pjk to deter-
mine your section based on mile-
posts and GPS coordinates. Then
register your group, the date of
your cleanup, and your river sec-
tion online at http://tinyurl.com/
l9pntwn. Shortly after registration,
your cleanup will appear on the
event map.
Current Problems is available to
assist you as you plan your cleanup
and to provide supplies (grabbers,
buckets, trash bags, etc.).
If you have questions or need
assistance, please contact Current
Problems’ Executive Director Fritzi
Olson at 352-215-7554 or e-mail her

Children huddle at the stairs in the head spring as they get ready to jump in the cold water.
A parade of tubers make their way down a nature trail that leads to the head spring of the Ichetucknee on Saturday.
LEFT, RIGHT: Tubers float down the river during Labor Day weekend, the last of the season for tubing.
ABOVE: A family attempts to stay together as they drift down the Ichetucknee River. ABOVE RIGHT: Families descend the stairs to tube from the northern end of the river. BELOW RIGHT: A colorful array of red, blue and green tubes makes its way down the river.

season ending after Monday, she said the park will see about 750 people in the head waters, which is where the spring begins, and will see additional people jump in at the midpoint and the south end of the spring.
Smith said she was from Lake Panasoffkee and had been a volunteer with her husband for the past five years. She said they stay in motor home off the property for a couple months leading up to Labor Day Weekend when the park expects a large crowd.
“It’s going to be a nice week-end,” she said. “People come to Ichetucknee to take their time to float and enjoy the nature along the way. And as long as people are safe and follow the rules of the park, every one will have a great time.”
They come from all over the region to tube for three hours down a six-mile-long crystal-line river to enjoy the cool tem-peratures of the water and the natural beauty that surrounds it.
A tri-county camping group from the Pasco, Hillsborough and Tampa Bay area said they had been at the springs since 7 a.m. and were ready to float down the river for the first time since 1991.
The group said when others drive to theme parks, wait in hours-long lines and spend a ton of money, they were miss-ing out on this hidden gem. They said they came to the springs this weekend to relive their youth and to have a good time with friends.
“It’s like a paradise,” said Cathy Wetherington, from the Tampa Bay area. She said she was with her husband and two friends who had been to the springs many times.
Although people sometimes worry about snakes hanging from the trees and other wild-life in the water, Wetherington said the animals had never bothered her. She said she had been to many different parks throughout Florida and nothing compared to the springs of the Ichetucknee.
“This one is pristine,” Wetherington said. “Not only are the springs beautiful, but just walking through the trails to get to the springs are gorgeous. It’s too bad they’re not open for a longer season to tube.”

Tony Stewart has one final shot to make the Chase, and it’s not a very good
one: He must win Saturday night at Richmond, where he last visited Victory Lane in 2002.
He sat out three races after his sprint car struck and killed Kevin Ward at a New York dirt track on Aug. 9, and his return to
competition Sunday night at Atlanta Motor Speedway ended with a blown tire and a 41st-place finish.

FORT WHITE — Fort White High football’s District 2-4A did not get off to a good start in week one of the season.
Fort White’s 20-14 loss to Hamilton County High didn’t look too bad com-pared to the results put up by Fernandina Beach High and Taylor County High.
Dixie County High wal-loped host Taylor County,
46-6, while Fernandina Beach lost at Yulee High, 41-12.
Madison County High provided a win for the dis-trict, beating the visitors from Tampa Catholic High 23-6.
Fort White travels to Newberry on Friday for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff. The Panthers also had a rough first week, losing 26-9 at Santa Fe High.
Fernandina Beach plays at Nease High this week, while Madison County plays host to Brooks County (Ga.) High and Taylor County brings in Williston High.
Future Fort White
foes Bradford High and Suwannee High met in week one in Starke with the Bulldogs winning 38-0.

Lake City has a new reason to tune into the PGA Tour.
Blayne Barber earned his tour card by virtue of his finish on the Web.com Tour this season, and will make his PGA Tour debut when the season begins in October.
The feeling of being on the big stage is a new one for Barber.
“It’s kind of hard to fig-ure out,” Barber said. “It’s surreal. It’s cool to make the dream come true, and I had ambition to realize that dream. To see it all come to fruition, it’s just a feeling of excitement.”
Barber said this isn’t where the train ends and has set new goals.
“I have to start thinking how to compete with the best players in the world,” he said. “I have to learn to compete on a regular
basis and obviously I’d love to win. The ultimate goal is to do this for the next 20-25 years. I have to continue to get better and progress each step of the way. I’ve been fortunate to win at every level, so it’s just about adapting to the change at this level.”
Barber said the dream would be to contend in the biggest tournaments.
“Obviously the stock answer is to say that I’d love to compete in the Masters,” Barber said. “That’s every-one’s dream. With the Players Championship being so close to home, that’d also be cool to land a spot in there next year.”
Barber said he’s confi-dent in his game and that he believes that when he’s playing well he has what it takes to win.
“It’s always tough, but I played an event in Puerto Rico and I had a chance to

Barber said when the day comes, it’ll certainly have a lot to do with Lake City and that he appreci-
ates the support.“I do really appreciate
the local support,” Barber said. “It means a lot to know that everyone is behind me. All the calls and text come in often. The more the merrier.”
Barber will play in the Web.com Tour Championship at TPC Sawgrass on Sept. 18-21.

But does it really matter if Stewart makes the 16-driver field?
Not in the least.Stewart’s team and his
employees and his sponsors would be thrilled if Stewart pulled it off, and it sure felt as if the crowd was pulling for him given his reception during driver introductions.
So when his tire blew and he hit the wall, ending his night just past the halfway point, there was heavy sadness in his voice as he radioed his crew.
“Sorry, guys,” he said. “You deserve better than this.”
Only the finish wasn’t that important in the grand scheme of life, which
Stewart is beginning to understand in the aftermath of Ward’s death.
Returning to the track was imperative for Stewart, who had spent nearly three weeks in seclusion. Many of his peers tried and failed to comfort him; Stewart simply wasn’t ready to talk or text or let anyone into his world of constant sorrow.
“I’ve wanted to talk to him for weeks,” Atlanta winner Kasey Kahne said. “I think a lot of people have, and haven’t been able to.”
Kahne finally got his chance Friday after Stewart returned to the track and made his first public statement since Ward’s death.
Those friendships and support are what Stewart
needs most right now. He needs normalcy and routine and the distraction of pulling on his helmet and climbing in a car. The investigation into Ward’s death will last at least another two weeks, and criminal charges are still possible. So it’s foolish to think one weekend at the track did anything to make his problems go away.
Many will scrutinize the timing of Stewart’s return.
But many are touched by tragedy daily, and few get to simply shut down and grieve indefinitely. There are jobs, children, responsibilities and lives that go on. When something terrible happens, eventually it’s time to return to work.
That’s all Stewart did last weekend.
4B LAKE CITY REPORTER ADVICE & COMICS TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2014 Page Editor: Emogene Graham, 754-0415
DEAR ABBY: My son married an educated professional woman from another country. When their twins were born, my daughter-in-law immersed them in her native lan-guage so it would become their mother tongue. Although I understand and respect the benefits of being bilingual, this caused a lot of communi-cation gaps and frustration between us and the grand-kids during their early years.
They attend a bilin-gual elementary school now, and their English is superb and communication between us is great. The problem is, when we are together, my daughter-in-law speaks to her children exclusively in her native language. My son under-stands the conversation, but my husband and I do not know what is being said. We think this is rude and inconsiderate.
Are we being overly sensitive, or is this com-mon practice in families with multiple languages? Our relationship with our daughter-in-law is polite and cordial, but not close or intimate. Any advice? — LEFT OUT IN FLORIDA
DEAR LEFT OUT: This is not unusual in multilingual families, and
I agree that it is inconsid-erate. Have you spoken to your son and daughter-in-law about how this makes you feel? If you haven’t, you should, because she may not be deliberately trying to make you feel excluded.
When you raise the sub-ject, choose your words and tone carefully. Because if you don’t, your relation-ship with your daughter-in-law could become a lot less cordial than it is.
DEAR ABBY: I’m a 55-year-old gay male who has been with my now-spouse, “Owen,” in a lov-ing, committed relationship since 2005. While earlier we could not legally marry, in 2006 we had a commit-ment ceremony bringing together close friends and family to acknowledge and celebrate our relationship. In 2013, Owen and I were finally able to legally marry in California.
My dilemma comes from people who don’t know what to call us. People
often refer to my spouse as my “friend” or “partner.” At times I say nothing, but more often than not, I find myself saying, “Oh, you mean my HUSBAND.” Some of them thank me for the clarification; others just look at me with a blank stare.
Owen never corrects them because he feels it isn’t his place. I feel it’s my responsibility to do so, first so as to not play down the significance of our relationship, but also to educate these people. Do you think this is inap-propriate? — MARRIED IN CALIFORNIA
DEAR MARRIED: Not at all. The people who refer to you and Owen as “partners” and “friends” are using terminology that is evolving because marriage among same-sex couples is still relatively new. As it becomes more common-place, that will change. In the meantime, it’s com-pletely appropriate for you and Owen to speak up.
P.S. For any reader who may not already know, gay men refer to their spouse as their husband and lesbians refer to theirs as their wife.
HOROSCOPES
DEAR ABBY
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Enjoy life and all it has to offer. Indulge in events, activities and doing things that inter-est you, and you will gain knowledge and improve your prospects. Travel will lead to a new adventure. Romance is highlighted. HHHHH
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Financial ventures and opportunities will come from an unusual source. Plan carefully or whatever you gain will slip through your fingers. Stringent policy when it comes to expenditures should be put in place before someone convinces you to spend inappropriate-ly. HHH
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Focus on personal gains and improvements, not on those putting demands on you. You aren’t likely to get valid information and should make a point of doing your own research. Make changes at home or to your current living arrangement. HHH
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t be alarmed by the changes taking place. A strong, sta-ble, responsible approach to work and personal duties will put you in a good position that will bring promising results. Your personal secrets will be revealed if you are too trusting. HHH
LEO (July 23-Aug.
22): Strut your stuff and put on a show. Not every-one will be entertained by your bravado, but it will grab the attention of someone who likes your style and knows how to put your talents to good use. HHHHH
