The Madison CityCommission set the ten-tative millage rate forFiscal Year 2013-2014 atseven mills at their Mon-day, July 15, meeting.

City Manager TimBennett briefly dis-cussed the budget withthe commissioners andexplained that the citywould work with thehigher number of sevenmills. He expects therolled back millage rateto be set at 6.1715.

Based on the city’srolled back millage rate,they will be able to gen-erate the same collectionof ad taxes they soughtin 2012-2013. Those num-bers were $530,182.

If the city used thesame millage rate theyused last year, theywould generate morethan $10,500 less. Lastyear’s millage rate was6.0484.

The motion to set thetentative rate was passedunanimously.

Florida’s jobless rate droppedagain in May, down to 7.1 percent, 0.1percentage point lower than April’s 7.2percent and the lowest it’s been sinceSeptember 2008, when it was 7.0 per-cent.

For the third consecutive monthalso, the state’s rate was lower thanthe national rate, which was 7.6 per-cent.

Jefferson and Madison counties,however, saw their rates increaseslightly, from 5.2 and 8.4 percents inApril to 5.4 and 8.5 percents in May re-spectively.

So indicate the latest figures fromFlorida Department of Economic Op-portunity (FDEO), released last Fri-day, June 21.

The improving unemployment sit-uation statewide gave the GovernorRick Scott cause to celebrate his poli-cies.

“Each month we continue to dis-tance ourselves from the national un-employment rate,” Scott said. “It’sclear we are succeeding in growing op-portunities for Florida families to pur-

sue the American Dream. While Flori-da communities have experiencedsome incredible successes, we’ll con-tinue working tirelessly to providejobs to families across the SunshineState.”

Statewide, the 7.1 percent repre-sents 671,000 jobless Floridians out ofa labor force of 9,427,000 — not count-ing individuals who have given up thesearch for work or who are underem-ployed or employed part time.

The FDEO reports Florida’s sea-sonally adjusted total nonagriculturalemployment was 7,511,200 in May, a de-crease of 6,200 jobs over the month.Seasonally adjusted means the num-bers have been purged of seasonal andother factors that could skew the re-sults.

“The number of jobs in the statewas up 122,500 in May from a year ago,an increase of 1.7,” the FDEO states.“Nationally, the number of jobs wasup 1.6 percent over the year.”

May was the 34th consecutivemonth showing positive annual jobgrowth after the state lost jobs formore than three straight years,

Florida’s Jobless RateContinues To Decline(Rates In Madison, Jefferson Up Slightly)


Three people were injured in a two-vehicle acci-dent one-half mile east of County Road 255 onWednesday evening, July 3, at approximately 10 p.m.

In the Bill ofRights, thosefirst ten amend-

ments to the Constitu-tion introduced by ournamesake JamesMadison in the firstCongress (1789), thereare a number of legalprotections affordedall Americans. Theyare contained primari-ly in three amend-ments, 5 through 7.Among these protec-tions are indictmentby Grand Jury; doublejeopardy; self-incrimi-nation; due process;trial by an impartialjury; confront ac-cusers; legal represen-tation; and protectionfor local courts.

These are cen-turies-old commonlaw (applicable to all)protections that reallybegan with the MagnaCarta in 1215. Overcenturies of trial anderror, English lawevolved and becamethe great standard forAmerica’s rule of law.It is a model for theworld.

Before this, lawwas absolute and arbi-trary. In the Book ofEsther, we learn thatKing Xerxes was anabsolute monarch. Toapproach the kingwithout his concur-rence was a capital of-fense, punishable bydeath. That’s prettyextreme by 21st Centu-ry standards. Thankgoodness those daysare behind us.

The idea here isthat in the courtroom,justice is blind; thereare no favorites; thefactual evidence fol-lowing a set of estab-lished standards willlead a jury of ourpeers to render a judg-ment of guilt or inno-cence. This is verymuch different thanthe “court of publicopinion” where thereare literally no rules.

You know, if youstop and think aboutit, a lynch mob was anearly manifestation ofthe court-of-public-opinion. On the spurof a moment, a bunchof citizens gathered,often fortified bystrong drink, and de-cided on the guilt orinnocence of someonebased on passion andhearsay. The event fre-quently ended with arope over a tree limband the accused dead.

Isn’t that whathappened at Rosewoodin what, 1923? A mobof angry (drunk?)white men, acting onrumor and innuendo,destroyed a town ofBlack folks … killinghow many?

One of the saddestthings about the Mar-tin-Zimmerman affairin Central Florida isthat George Zimmer-man was convicted inthe court-of-public-opinion long before hewent to trial. He wasconvicted by the me-dia led by race-baiters.They essentially“lynched” Zimmer-

man, in a 21st Centuryway.

Then the politi-cians got involved,starting at the topwith the president. Iwill guarantee youthat nothing goodcomes from politicalinterference in a crim-inal case. We didn’telect them for thatpurpose and they needto stay out of the wayand let the criminaljustice system work asit is designed to work.

One of the reasonsI don’t get investedwith these sensationalcases (Jody Arias,Casey Anthony, etc.) isthat it isn’t any of mybusiness. It only real-ly matters to the courtofficers, and ultimate-ly, the judgment of thejury. I don’t waste mytime following the pro-ceedings. I’ve got bet-ter things to do.Maybe if I was in lawenforcement or alawyer, I would feel dif-ferently, but I’m not, soI don’t.

It was all well andfine for the media to“convict” George Zim-merman; to manipu-late tapes to inflamepublic opinion; or towithhold evidence, butin the end, it didn’t re-ally matter. In the end,it came down to whatwas allowed in thatcourtroom. There arerules for evidence. Ajury was impaneled.They listened to theevidence and sworntestimony. The prose-cutors realized theyhad lost their murdertwo case and asked af-ter-the-fact formanslaughter whichthe judge permitted.Even that wasn’tenough to convictGeorge Zimmerman.He walked.

I learned this les-son in the O.J. Simp-son criminal trialtwenty years ago inSouthern California.Based on the evidence,I thought O.J. wasguilty, but it didn’tmatter what I thought.It only mattered to thejury and they acquit-ted him. Case closed.

Many of us dis-agree with the verdict… but it doesn’t matterwhether we disagreeor not. Only whatwent on in the court-room mattered. Readthe Constitution:those protections af-forded George Zim-merman protect youand me as well.

The case isn’t over.The Justice Depart-ment is considering acivil rights case; I pre-dict they will pass onit, no matter how par-tisan Eric Holder is.Lawsuits are beingfiled. I don’t thinkZimmerman will betried for wrongfuldeath, because hedoesn’t have any mon-ey for the law sharksto circle. The insur-ance companies willpay, and maybe eveneventually, NBC fordoctoring the 9-1-1tapes.

George Zimmer-man is a marked man,so in that sense, he is-n’t free. He felt heneeded a firearm forself-protection beforeTrayvon Martin wasfatally shot. He proba-bly needs one today,more than before. Hehad better move tosome place where hecan “get lost.” Eventu-ally, the heat of pas-sion will die down andwe will move on, hope-fully sooner than later.

We haved i s -cussed wh

-y it is important toconsume adequatewater, how much todrink each day,and how to improvethe quality of the wa-ter we drink, but wehaven’t yet discussedwhen to drink water,and why this matters.

Drink a big glassof room-temperaturewater about half-an-hour before meals,earlier if you insiston ice-cold water, andif you have digestivedifficulties or heart-burn, try adding acapful of raw applecider vinegar or thejuice of some lemonto that water. Try notto drink water withmeals, as this dilutesthe digestive juicestoo much making itharder for them to dotheir job. Then drinkmore water a coupleof hours after eating.In summary, drink be-tween meals ratherthan with meals.

Water is best at

room temperaturerather than ice cold,as our bodies have towarm up cold waterbefore it can be used.Although some saythat cold water re-quires more caloriesto heat up so it may bemore helpful inweight loss. But Ifyou drink a largeamount of cold water,and then jiggle yourbelly around, you willhear and feel the wa-ter sloshing around,whereas if you drinka large amount ofroom temperature wa-ter it is immediatelyassimilated into thebody and you won’tget that sloshingsound. Hot water inthe form of herbal(non-caffeinated) teasare also fine.

Remember thatcaffeinated beveragesand alcohol do notcount as water as theyare dehydrating.Quality milk, bonebroths and fresh-squeezed juice may behealthy, but theywon’t rehydrate youeither, so only countwater in your hydra-tion efforts!

I personally findthat I get a headachewhen I am dehydrat-ed, so when I get thatfeeling at the templesof my head where myheadaches start, Idrink lots of water,and the headache goesaway. We need to beproactive and drinkwater regularly be-tween meals.

Did You Know...trial By Jury

To m a t o e s ,t o m a t o e severywhere!

At least that’s what Iwant when I plant mytomato garden everyyear. This year I plant-ed new varieties that Ihave not grown beforeand some I had neverheard of until thisspring: Paul Robeson,Purple Cherokee, Cos-toluto Genovese andJuliet to name a few.My tomato garden is,by far, the biggest gar-den I plant, and the onewith the most variety.The first reason is thatnot much tastes betterto me than a home-grown tomato, pluckedfrom a plant in my ownb a c k -yard andit’s ab-solutelyessentialfor mya n n u a l( o k a y ,s o m e -times bi-annual)BLT. Another reason isbecause I absolutelylove tasting new vari-eties; will they besweet, acidic, tart?However, probably thelargest reason of all Igrow so many toma-toes, are for their ver-satility in cooking. Youcan use them fresh insalads or slice them upfor the table. You cancook them down intosauce and make pizza,spaghetti, chili, orcasseroles. You canbroil tomatoes whole,or chop them up andadd them to bakedrecipes; Not to mentioncanning, where youcan preserve themwhole, juiced, sauced,or even made into ajam (which is, by theway, absolutely stun-ning if you use yellowtomatoes). And whattomato lover could letsummer pass without aplate of fried greentomatoes?

Obviously I couldgo on and on abouttomatoes, but I willstop so that I can sharea tomato recipe withyou that I made and fellhead-over-heels in lovewith. The recipe is for aTomato Tart. I have eat-en this before as ‘Toma-to Pie’ where it wasprepared with a cus-tard base and a heavylayer of mayonnaise,but I really fell in lovewith this version be-cause instead of usingthe mayonnaise orcream and eggs, it wassimply tomatoes andherbs in pastry and thefreshness of the toma-toes really camethrough. It makes agreat ‘light’ supperwith a glass of iced tea.Enjoy the tomato sea-son while it lasts!

TOMATO TART

I made this in anine inch tart pan witha removable bottom,but there’s no need tobuy a special pan, sim-ply use a nine-inch piepan.

Tart Dough

1½ cups flour½ tsp salt9 TB butter, chilled

and cubed1 egg, beaten2 to 3 TB cold water

Preheat oven to 425degrees.

In a medium bowl,mix the flour and salttogether (omit the saltif you’re using saltedbutter). Using a pastryblender, cut butter intothe flour until the mix-ture is crumbly. In asmall bowl, combineegg and 2 TB of thecold water. Stir the eggmixture into the flourmixture; stir until thedough holds together. Ifthe dough seems dry,add the additional TBof water.

Roll the dough on alightly floured surface

so that itis largee n o u g hto coverthe bot-tom andup thesides ofthe pany o u ’ r eu s i n g .

(An easy way to knowhow big to roll yourdough is to place yourpan upside down ondough and make sureyou have 2-inches ofdough all around thepan). Gently press thedough into the pan andallow it to rest for 10 to15 minutes.

Tart Filling

2 to 3 TB Dijon•mustard

2 to 3 large toma-•toes

2 TB olive oil•chopped fresh

herbs (basil, oregano,dill, parsley, chives,etc.)

salt and pepper to•taste

optional: fresh•mozzarella or goatcheese

Spread the mustardin an even layer on thecrust and allow it to sitfor a few minutes todry out. (Hopefullyyou’re reading aheadbecause I spread mymustard on before al-lowing my dough torest, so both my wait-ing periods are com-bined). Slice tomatoesand place them overthe mustard in a singlelayer. Drizzle olive oilover the top of toma-toes. Sprinkle theamount of herbs, salt,and pepper you wanton top. Add cheese ifusing and bake about30 minutes or until thedough is nicelybrowned and the toma-toes are tender. If usingcheese, make sure it isnicely browned as well.

Allow to cool aboutfive minutes before eat-ing…if you can! I like itat room temperature aswell. But if there areleftovers (really?) besure to refrigerate be-cause of the cheese.

Saying that the changes to theFlorida Retirement System in the lastfiscal quarter had been a “kick in thepants” for Madison County’s FY 2012-2013 budget, Madison County CourtClerk Tim Sanders matter-of-factly de-livered even graver news for Madison’s2013-2014 FY Budget: a projected short-fall of over $860,000.

Citing it as another example of un-funded state mandates that plaguesmall counties, Sanders and the com-missioners wondered aloud whetherthere was anything elected representa-tives in Tallahassee could do for thecounty; one commissioner noted thatMadison’s State Representative, HalseyBeshears, had already told him thatthere was “nothing he could do aboutit.” Another added, “That’s the samething he said when we lost our MCI in-mate labor: he just said, ‘Deal with it.’”

Commissioners pondered othersources that might be able to interveneon behalf of not only Madison, but alsoother small, rural counties with cash-strapped budgets. What about theFlorida Association of Counties? Whatabout the Small County Association?What about meeting with individuallegislators to let them know how hardthis was hitting the small rural coun-ties?

“It may not change things rightnow, but it’ll send a message for next fis-cal year,” said Sanders.

Commissioner Ronnie Mooreagreed, adding, “We need to go beyondour legislators. We need to let everyoneknow how this is affecting small coun-ties.”

At the heart of the county’s budgetwoes for the next fiscal year is a state-legislated increase in the amount thatcounties and other state or local gov-ernment entities must pay into theFlorida Retirement System for all of

their employees. The new FRS require-ments took effect July 1, 2013.

While larger counties with largertax bases and bigger reserve fundscould absorb the blow much better,small rural counties like Madison, withbudgets balanced on the head of a pin,strained reserve funds already drawndown by other crises, a significant por-tion of its population base living closeto or under the poverty line and an un-employment rate that is higher thanstate average, are left scraping for waysto cope.

The board discussed ways to raiserevenue and asked if the county hadever had ever used the maximum mill-age rate of 10 mils.

“We were at 10 mils forever,”Sanders replied. “Until property valuesskyrocketed 2006 and 2007, then we ad-justed down.” After the housing bubbleburst and the recession hit in 2008, themillage rate began gradually creepingback up toward 10 mils. However, evenif the county were to go back up to 10mils for the next fiscal year, it wouldstill face a shortfall of about $600,000.

“And that’s assuming that insur-ance doesn’t go up,” said CommissionerJustin Hamrick.

Since the new requirements kickedin July 1, the county is already lookingat a shortfall for the final quarter of FY2012-2013. The county can draw in somerevenue some its small reserves, butSanders warned that it was just enoughto get through October, November, andDecember.

On the west side of Four FreedomsPark stands a tree and a bench,which honor a former resident of

Madison. Bernard Wilson was not just any resident

of the fair city. Originally from Bainbridge,Ga., he came to Madison from Wakulla Coun-ty to serve as the manager for Florida Power.He also served as a Madison city commis-sioner, as the local civil defense director andas Veterans Service officer. He was also cho-sen as Madison County’s Citizen of the Year.

In his role as the Veterans Service officer,Wilson shined. A World War II veteran whowas on a bomber plane in the South Pacificnear the close of the war, he made sure thatevery patriotic holiday was observed and be-came a shining example for Veterans Serviceofficers that followed in his place.

Each year, Wilson would make sure thatthe flags of all 50 states, as well as the Amer-ican flag, were on prominent display at theCourthouse. He made sure that several mon-uments were erected in the city, noting theservice of men and women in different wars.

When Bernard and Betty Wilson beganhaving health problems, their son, David,then the head football coach at Lincoln HighSchool, found many of the columns that hisfather had written over the years. Bernardhad written a column on military and veter-ans affairs. From time to time, he wouldhighlight a different veteran from MadisonCounty who had done something significantin the battle to keep the United States free.

On occasion, David and Bernard wouldcome to the office, so David could lookthrough the bound copies for his father’s sto-ries.

David began looking for information onthe Bicentennial Tree that his father hadplanted in 1976. He went to the park to see thetree and discovered that it was not markedanywhere in the park. His father’s memorywas failing at the time so he could not tellhim where it was.

David found the photo of the tree beingplanted in an old newspaper. Looking at thebackground of the photo, he was able to pin-point the tree and its location in the park.

David was able to erect two benches inhonor of his late parents and a marker,which notes the location of the BicentennialTree, planted in Jan. 1976.

The bench honoring both his parents isinscribed with 1 Corinthians 16:13-14, whichreads: “Watch, stand fast in the faith, bebrave, be strong. Let all that you do be donewith love.” (New King James Version) BettyWilson stood by Bernard for over 50 years,brave and strong and loving him.

The bench which was placed in honor ofBernard reads: “Family, Faith, Community,Country,” which were all near and dear toBernard’s heart.

Review: Haunted Big Bend FloridaBy Jacob BembryGreene Publishing, Inc.

With its history filled withstories of ghosts at suchlocations as Stonewall

Cemetery in Lee, the Drew Mansion inEllaville and the Wardlaw-Smith-Gozahouse in Madison, the first thing thata Madison Countian may notice whenpicking up Haunted Big Bend Floridais that Madison County didn’t make itin the book. The next thing one maynotice, however is that plenty of coun-ties around Madison did, includingneighboring Madison County.

A good portion of the book isdedicated to the places that are al-leged to be haunted in JeffersonCounty. Author Alan Brown takesthe readers on a tour of the town,which was dubbed by ABC News as

“The Most Haunted Small Town inAmerica” and byPBS as “TheSouth’s MostHaunted SmallTown.”

History is wo-ven into the storiesthat Brown tells ofEast DogwoodStreet, the Monti-cello Opera House,the John DenhamBed and BreakfastHouse (which is fea-tured prominentlyon its cover with afull moon hangingover its cupola), theAvera-Clark House,the Old Jefferson County Jail, the

old Jefferson County High School,the Meeting Oak,the DaffodaleHouse and thePalmer House.Along with histo-ries of each loca-tion, which is alltoo brief for mytastes, are the talesof ghastly ghostsand friendly spir-its, such as John H.Perkins, who builtthe Opera House.

This writermust admit that hedoesn’t believe thestories of ghoststhat Brown relates

throughout the book, but he does

find them entertaining and amusing.The book is light and breezy andeasy to read.

In addition to the tales of Monti-cello, Brown also writes about sitesin Tallahassee (such as the VeldaMounds and Florida State Universi-ty) being haunted, along with sitesfrom Apalachicola, Chipley,Franklin County, Gadsden County,Port St. Joe, Quincy, Sumatra, Wash-ington County and Wewahitchka.

The book is available in paper-back at local bookstores for $19.99 oris available online at www.history-press.net.

A Tree Grows in Madison...AgainBy Lynette NorrisGreene Publishing, Inc.

Actually, it’s ac e n t u r yplant, but it’s

easily as tall as anytrees in the vicinity.Owner Carl Dean reck-ons that it is probablyabout 35 feet tall at thispoint.

This makes a totalof two known centuryplants in bloom inMadison County. Theother one is located atthe Days Inn on SouthSR 53 near I-10, and wasfeatured in the Wednes-day, June 26 edition ofthe Madison CountyCarrier.

The plant in Dean’sbackyard is one hetransplanted fromCherry Lake about 20years ago. At the time,it was a small thing,only about a foot high.

Now, the leaves atthe base reach almostfive feet in height andare about five feetacross. The centralstalk began growingout of the center abouttwo months ago, and af-ter it reached its maxi-mum height, it began

blooming. Once a century

plant blooms and dis-perses its seeds, its lifecycle is complete. Thecentral “mother plant”begins dying off, but of-ten there are several“pups” sprouting uparound the motherplant that will live on,grow to maturity, andwhen they sense thatconditions are right foroptimal seed dispersal,they too will send upstalks and bloom.

This is the casewith Dean’s plant. Thebig leaves around thebase of the stalk are al-ready beginning to turnyellow and brown inplaces, but there areseveral new shootssprouting up aroundthe central motherplant. After they reachten years old, they willbegin their wait. Noone knows how manyyears that will be, butwhen the conditionsare just right, they toowill send up the giantstalks, bloom, dispersetheir seeds and die.

And so, the cycle be-gins anew.

McLeod said that the walk and theart exhibit will be annual events, sothat the Autism Support Kids (ASK)group canraise fundsto send chil-dren tocamp everyyear.
