The Callahan TownCouncil approved two dona-tions Monday, but a coun-cilman declined support forone local group.

Cherree Griffin, cheercoordinator for the Calla-han Athletic AssociationPop Warner Cheerleaders,sought a donation for thegroup. Two cheerleadingteams plan to travel toOrlando Thanksgivingweekend to attend cheer-leading camp.

Councilman Ken Bassmotioned that the boardapprove a $500 donation.Councilwoman Janet Shawseconded the motion.

Before the 4-1 vote,which he dissented,Councilman Marty Fontesexpressed concern that ifthe council continued todonate money in $500 incre-ments, there wouldn’t beany funds available todonate in 2015.

“I hate to be a Scroogeon this,” he said.

Fontes also questionedhow many girls live in thetown limits. He expresseddoubt whether the returnon investment was viablesince the girls weren’t nec-essarily representing theTown of Callahan.

But Town TreasurerKathy Smith disagreed. Shehighlighted the achieve-ments of the West NassauHigh School cheerleaders,

who won state champi-onships for three consecu-tive years from 2011through 2013.

Smith said many of thegirls started in Pop Warnerand went on to cheer forWest Nassau.

But Fontes said he waslooking out for the taxpay-ers.

Town Clerk StephanieKnagge said that she was ataxpayer and she wouldrather see the funds benefitchildren.

Fontes said other townfunds have gone to assistchildren in the past.

“We really appreciate thedonation,” Griffin saidTuesday.

It will cost about $6,000in food and lodging expens-es for the trip. The town’sdonation will be used to off-set those expenses.The girlsplan to do additionalfundraising activitiesaround town. Currently, 12of the 28 girls participatinglive within the town limits.All of the girls except oneattend schools in Callahan.She attends school inHilliard, according toGriffin.

The council voted unan-imously to approve a $500donation to the AmericanCancer Society Relay forLife via Resolution 2014-R26.

During the meeting, the

council also held a secondpublic hearing in accor-dance with Ordinance No.2014-O04. The ordinanceamends the town code by“adopting land developmentregulations for new futureland use categories” for thetown’s comprehensive plan.The town council modifiedlanguage on four itemsincluding minimum lotrequirements, language forfuneral homes and mini-mum yard requirements inrear yards and side yards.The items were approvedwith a unanimous vote.

Before the meeting’sclose, Smith bid adieu toher role as treasurer. Shehas held the post since2006.

“I have enjoyed being thetreasurer for the Town ofCallahan,” Smith said. “It’sbeen a wonderful learningexperience and I’ve enjoyedworking for the Town ofCallahan. This is my home-town.”

“We’ve enjoyed havingyou as our treasurer,”replied Rau.

Donna Kirk, who ranunopposed, will assume theposition as early as Monday.A swearing-in ceremonywill be held at the CallahanTown Hall for Mayor-electBobby Rau and elected offi-cials, including two newlyelected council representa-tives. Final election resultsare available on page A1.

HEATHER A. PERRYFor the Record

Ryan Teston is prettyexcited these days. As amember of the Jackson-ville Jaguars D-Line, he’llfly to London, Englandtoday to perform with theD-Line during the NFLInternational Series atWembley Stadium.

The D-Line is a group ofdrummers that revs up thecrowd during Jaguarsgames at EverBank Field.These talented guys willperform Sunday as theJacksonville Jaguars playthe Dallas Cowboys in anexhibition game.

This is Teston’s rookieseason with the high-ener-gy drum line that taps outrock, hip-hop, Latin andother rhythms to invigor-ate Jaguars fans.

“It felt pretty good whenI finally made it. I’veknown and met a few ofthese guys before I everjoined the group and waspretty excited for theopportunity to get to drumwith them and drum forthe Jaguars,” said Teston.

“He has auditioned inthe past but he kept at itand finally made it on and he’s doing great. He’sa veteran in the musicmarching world so that’swhy he was selected,” saidD-Line Director AndrewNixon.

The D-Line is made upof 18 guys total but only12 can go to London.

“It was a pretty easychoice when it came toRyan,” said Nixon.

Teston admits to being“pretty shocked” when helearned he was one of the

drummers going.“Being one of the new

guys, I did not expect toget one of those slots.”

Having never left thecountry before, theFernandina Beach residentsays he’s looking forwardto the overall experienceof spending time in a dif-ferent country and drum-ming there.

Teston first becameinvolved with his choseninstrument in 2003-06when he was part of theFernandina Beach HighSchool marching band andwas quick to give credit toBand Director JohnnieRobinson.

“Tons of great drum-mers/percussionists/musi-cians have come out ofFBHS through Mr. Robin-son’s band program,” hesaid.

Teston studies Internat-ional Relations at theUniversity of NorthFlorida with a minor inProfessional Education.

Notes: This dessert(similar to flan) is notonly good during the holi-days – it is good any timeof the year. Back in theday when I was growingup, dessert was a once-in-a-while treat, and thennothing really complicat-ed. I think Mom would

(While oven ispre-heating, cut biscuitsinto quarters.) Increaseoven temperature to 350Degrees. Place biscuitpieces in the melted but-ter. You will have two lay-ers of biscuit pieces –don’t be too neat. Bake for20 to 25 minutes.Variations include sprin-kling the biscuits withpoppy seeds*, freshherbs*, or herb season-ings of your choice beforebaking. For a garlic*bread variation, mince 3gloves of garlic, combinewith 1/2 cup gratedParmesan cheese and 1teaspoon of Italian sea-soning (optional), and tosswith biscuit pieces beforeplacing in Bundt pan.Bake as above.

Notes: Most folks don’tneed extra butter on thetable for this “bread.” I’vealso made this recipe bynot cutting the biscuitsinto pieces, and juststanding them up on theirsides. Enjoy.

Tribute to fallen riderThe rest of the story ... A fallen rider. There will be

one less motorcycle on the roads of Nassau Countyfrom now on. For the people who live here and thefamilies of veterans in hallowed earth, this biker willbe absent. They probably never knew how much hecared for them. You see, here is the rest of the story.

Rocky Cleary was a huge part of the placement ofover 700 flags at 18 cemeteries in the county. FromBrickyard to Deep Creek, Haddock to Mills, CallahanCommunity to Buford Grove, Hilliard Community toJones, Live Oak to Kings Ferry and many others. Ifyou happen to see a flag, he was a part of getting itthere. He rode everywhere, rain or shine, to reverent-ly place a flag. It was about the mission. No veteran’sgrave would go without a flag.

Though as a Graverider we don’t get to see thefaces of friends and family when they visit a ceme-tery, he knew the happiness brought when it’s knownthat a loved veteran will not be forgotten. He was anoriginal member of the Blank Check Society ofAmerica, a plankowner of the Nassau Chapter. ARide Captain and Graverider. He wore his colors withpride just like the red, white and blue of Old Glory.

Rocky tragically passed away two weeks ago andwill be tremendously missed. Whether you rode withhim or not, his bond to this community made you hisbrother, sister and friend. With perseverance, weshall continue the mission. But if people were to visita cemetery after the BCS has placed flags and justhappen to notice that a flag is missing, do not worry.It only means that Rocky is delivering hand to hand.Condolences are extended to his wife and family. Ridehard, ride far, ride free, ride in Peace.

LETTER TO

THE EDITOR

Disgruntled non-instructional employees inthe Nassau County SchoolDistrict are blowing thehorn at inferior compensa-tion – while trying todrive attendance to a spe-cial meeting.

The meeting will be at6 p.m. Monday in front ofthe school board overunsettled grievances ofthe 500 non-instructional,or support, employees inthe county, such as busdrivers, secretaries andcafeteria and maintenanceworkers. The proposed 25to 35 cents hourly payincreases for these valu-able employees hardlycover the rising costs ofhealth insurance.

The non-instructionalworkers do not includeteachers, principals, etc.However, these workers“are the backbone of theschool system,” saysMarian O’Neal, the presi-dent of the union that rep-resents many of the schooldistrict’s non-instructionalemployees.

While teachers inFlorida received a bonusthis year from Gov. RickScott, the non-instruction-al employees were left out.

Instead, theseworkers here havefought literally forpennies in terms ofa pay increase.

Originally,O’Neal’s groupsought a $1 perhour raise. Whenthis issue could notbe resolved, a spe-cial magistrate wasbrought in to ruleon the matter. Themagistrate said thenon-instructionalpersonnel should receivethe proposed, yet paltry,lower pay increase – pend-ing the school board’sapproval.

Parents living in DuvalCounty are trying to sendtheir children to the pub-lic schools here, O’Nealmaintains. And this isbecause Nassau’s schoolshave graded academicallyat the highest levels.

O’Neal contends thatthe school system couldnot operate without thenon-instructional workers.No buses, no maintenance,no cafeteria workers. Noschool district.

Local support workershave been reasonable inpast years with their

demands for payand benefits. Andthey feel theirdemands are againreasonable –although the school district hasbeen somewhatunreasonable thusfar.

Ironically, theschool board mem-bers receive morecompensation thanmany of the non-instructional work-

ers, with fewer demandsor rigors on the job. Sothis isn’t a case of a rogueunion trying to push payraises for non-deservingworkers.

In the meantime,O’Neal is trying to publi-cize the meeting Mondayat the Fernandina BeachHigh School auditorium.The larger room is neces-sary due to the high num-ber of school boardemployees expected toattend – along with theirsupporters.

In fact, unions involvedwith the two mills inFernandina Beach havebacked O’Neal’s group(known as the NassauEducational Support

Personnel Association).Several religious groupshave expressed supportfor these support employ-ees.

O’Neal says the costsfor health insurance com-pletely erase the annualincome for some of herworkers. However, theworkers persevere at theirjobs because they need theinsurance, which is lessexpensive than buying itthemselves.

And the NassauCounty School District isbetter for it. Many of thesupport positions areindispensable, contribut-ing to the superior learn-ing environment at localschools – which hasreceived much acclaimover the years.

By the way, the district“didn’t get there with justthe teachers,” says O’Neal.

NASSAU COUNTY RECORD Thursday, November 6, 2014 – A7

“The Heavensdeclare the Glory ofGod; and the firma-ment shows Hishandiwork,” (Psalm19:1).

I’ve alwaysenjoyed this beauti-ful fall season, butnever as much as Ido this year. Afterspending 15 daysin the hospital fol-lowing a stroke andopen heart surgery,I am writing these wordsfrom my front porch whilerecovering and taking inthe beauty of God’s cre-ation.

I guess it’s just the waywe human beings arewired, but it usually takesa major crisis or life-changing event to help usappreciate the things wetake for granted morethan we realize.

Two weeks ago I knowthe roses on the bush inmy front yard were beau-tiful, but today they havenever been more gorgeous.Before my health crises, Iknow the birds weresinging and the butterflieswere flapping their multi-colored wings, but todaythe volume is turned up

and my eyes areopen wider as Iwatch and heartheir sounds.

I guess what I’msaying is that weneed to go throughlife slower, listen topeople more closelyand hold on to Godmore tightly.

I had an experi-ence in the hospitalthat I may share ina future column

when I feel the time isright. I don’t knowwhether to call it a neardeath encounter or exactlywhat to call it. In myentire life, I’ve never feltmore helpless and closerto leaving this world thanI did then; only God’sgrace pulled me through.

Maybe that’s why I’membracing life with agreater appreciation anddoing all I can to show theLord and other people mysupreme gratitude.

I know it’s a cliché butit’s more real to me nowthan ever: “Life is a gift,that’s why we call it thepresent.”

Have a great week.We’ll see you aroundtown.

KENBARNEY

The Scripturesshare in St. Johnchapter five thestory of Jesus goingto Bethesda.

Jesus is travel-ing to Jerusalemfor the Passoverand goes throughBethesda. There isa pool that the peo-ple believe when itis stirred, the firstone in the waterwill be healed.While Jesus was walkingamong the many very sickpeople, he saw this manwho had been coming tothe pool for 38 years.Jesus said, “Do you wantto be healed?”

Don’t you agree thatthis is a strange question?After all he has been com-ing here for 38 years. Thiswas his response, “I haveno one to put me in, andeveryone gets in front ofme.”

Do you really think hewas expecting to behealed? Could he havebeen placed closed to theedge of the water so hewould be ready just incase the waters werestirred? Do you think per-haps he had become com-fortable with his condi-tion? If he is healed hewill have to work and notdepend on others.

Do we have the atti-tude that life is alwaysgoing to be just like it is? Ihave always been poor. Iguess that is what Godwants. Life will never beany different. I will neverbe healed or have a goodjob or a godly mate or achild. I have waited so

long and nothinghas happened.Have you reallybeen expecting Godto answer?

Jesus said, “Rise,take up your bedand walk.” NoticeJesus nevertouched him orhelped him up. Hehad to believe thatJesus’ words wereall he needed to behealed. I think

sometimes we havebecome so comfortablewith things as they arethat I am not sure wereally believe Jesus canheal.

I hear so many talkingabout our nation andwhat a mess it is in and Iask, “Are you praying forit?” They answer, “Yes, butI am not sure what can bedone.” We don’t have tohave all the answers. Wejust have to trust God andknow He is in control andworking things out. Weneed to be expecting Godto do great things. Weshould be sitting with ourfeet in the water, ready forGod to work a miracle inour lives.

I heard a message onthis Scripture by T.D.Jakes. I love the way hegets so excited. He yelled,“Rise up, people, you havewaited and been comfort-able long enough.” Thinkabout your life. Have youbeen praying for some-thing for a long time?Don’t give up; expect Godto tell you to rise up andwalk.

Expect God to workmiracles in your life.

PHYLLISHOLMES

Embracing lifewith appreciation

God’s miraclesarrive in due time

Shalom.This will be the last

month of columns on for-giving others. I pray thatthe Lord has touched youin many ways so you areable to forgive.

One main concernwhen it comes to forgiv-ing others is prayer. Taketime to think and sincere-ly pray to God before youallow your offender backinto your heart again. Allof your answers will comethrough prayer.

When your trust hasbeen run over, you willneed to time to recover.Do not rush the relation-ship – confidence is notregained overnight. Trustis not just given. It isearned.

In Proverbs 4:23we read, “Above allelse, guard yourheart, for it is the

well spring oflife.”

The heart isfirst. It speaks ofinner life – themind, thethoughts, themotives and thedesires. The mindis the fountainfrom which theactions spring. If thefountain is pure, thestream that flows from itwill be pure. As a manthinks, so is he.

God wants us each tohave a heart that is yield-ed to His perfect will forour lives. When we hurt,

it will change ourfuture. It will bevery difficult foryou to come backtogether whenyour offender actsas if nothing everhappened. Knowwhat is best foryou. Again, consultwith God. He hasall the answers.Leave all the nega-tive things in thepast. Establish

positive patterns in yourlife.

“Forget the formerthings; do not dwell onthe past. See, I am doinga new thing! Now itsprings up; do you notperceive it? I am makinga way in the desert and

streams in the waste-land,” (Isaiah 43:18-19).

God is the One whobrought the Israelitesthrough the Red Sea. Hemade a highway at theRed Sea.

There may be sometimes when you may feellike you are not progress-ing when it comes to for-giving others. But I can-not say this enough: Keeptalking to God. He is theone who has listeningears. Pray with confi-dence, pray from yourheart and watch Godchange things.

May the peace of Godbe with you as you contin-ue to progress in your for-giveness.

Shalom.

Pray from heart to find peace

CHURCH NOTES

Mildred Lee CaulkinsMildred Lee Caulkins passed peacefully on Nov. 1, 2014

surrounded by her loving and devoted family.Mrs. Caulkins of Callahan celebrated her

100th birthday July 16. She was born inBuffalo, Texas on July 16, 1914 toCommodore and Mattie Lee. She was theyoungest of six children. Her father was inlaw enforcement, known as the town mar-shal, and her mother was a homemaker whodied when Mildred was very young. Sheremembers her father bringing home theprisoners he had at the jail and chainingthem to the tree in the front yard for lunch.

If the weather was bad, he chained them to the porch.Times have somewhat changed.

Mildred held many jobs over the years, which includedworking at an ammunition plant during World War II,working at a truck line transportation company and at aneighborhood grocery store.However,her favorite professionis a homemaker, mother and grandmother.

She married Vance F. Caulkins, who worked for the rail-road. Mildred raised six children. She also raised two of hergrandchildren. Mildred attributed her long life to her inde-pendent nature and an occasional beer with good barbecue.She enjoyed sitting on her carport and watching all the activ-ities going on in Ewing Park and watching FOX news. Mrs.Caulkins lived in her Callahan home with her dog Max.

Mildred is predeceased by her husband, Vance ForestCaulkins and a granddaughter, Evelyn Manning. Mildredis survived by her six children, Jack (Sheila) Caulkins ofJacksonville, Fla., Bobby (Vickie) Cotie of St. Paul, Minn.,Vance (Martha) Caulkins of Cullowhee, N.C., Billy (Lois)Caulkins of Hilliard, Fla., Ellen (Euell) Ogden of Odom, Ga.and Janet (Bobby) Gill of Fernandina Beach, Fla.

Pallbearers were her grandsons and a great-grandson,Vance Lee Caulkins, Jr., Lane Maverick Caulkins, JamesEverett Howard, Jr., William Forest Caulkins, Jr., DerekAustin Sharp, Brett Lawrence Sharp, Weston William Gilland Richard Vance-Forrest Beeny.A large number of friendsand family gathered in the chapel at Callahan FuneralHome for the visitation of Mrs. Caulkins on Monday, Nov.3.

Arrangements are under the care and directionof Ellis and Charlotte McAninch, Callahan Funeral Home,617365 Brandies Ave., 879-2336. Condolences may beexpressed at www.callahanfh.com.

The story, “‘Mildred Caulkins Day’ set for July 16”appeared in the Record July 10, written by Kathie Colgrove.It appears below.

Mildred Lee Caulkins turns 100 July 16 and her longevi-ty could be due to enjoying an “occasional beer and good bar-becue.” The attribute was duly noted in a proclamationread by Callahan Mayor Shirley Graham Monday night.Caulkins sat in the council chambers joined by her son,CodeEnforcement Officer Billy Caulkins Sr., as Graham desig-nated July 16 in Caulkins’ honor.

The mayor noted the aforementioned beer and barbecueand the contributions Caulkins made as a Callahan citizen.According to the proclamation, Lee had an early love ofsinging, dancing and doing the Charleston.At 19, she wona nationwide “Norma Shearer – Juliet Fashions contest”which promoted a screen version of “Romeo and Juliet.”Shearer was a popular film actress of the 1920s and 1930s.

Graham shared a humorous anecdote about Caulkins andthe time she inadvertently sold alcohol at a store where she

worked during Prohibition. When two men came into thestore later to question Caulkins about the sale, she offeredthem a sample of the libation and they took a sip.After ques-tioning, the men realized that Caulkins did not understandthat she had illegally sold alcohol. As a result she was notarrested, according to Graham.

The mayor presented Caulkins with a commemorativeclock with the engraved message, “Time is on your side.”Councilwoman Janet Shaw gave her several yellow roses.Everyone in attendance sang “Happy Birthday.” Overcomewith emotion, she cried happy tears. She thanked the coun-cil and the mayor before leaving the chambers.A family cel-ebration will be held later this month.

A wise man will hear and

increase learning, and a

man of understanding will

attain wise counsel."

Proverbs 1:2-5

The word "Bible" comes from the Greek word "biblion,"meaning book. Since most Christians consider theBible to be the foundational book on how to live, thisderivation seems particularly appropriate. I recentlyheard a priest who was preparing to hand out Biblesto graduating eighth graders tell them with a winkand a smile that the word "Bible" stands for "BasicInstructions Before Leaving Earth." There is more thana grain of truth in that catchy acronym. Consider howthe Hebrew Bible or Old Testament contains detaileddietary laws and rules about clothes (e.g.,Deuteronomy 22:5 tells us that "A woman shall notwear a man's garment" and at 22:11 it says that "Youshall not wear cloth of wool and linen mixedtogether.") Many of these rules seem strange to ustoday because we are so far removed from theirancient context. But, most of the proverbs and rulesfor how to get along with each other make prudentsense and continue to provide a rational basis for howwe should live. The Golden rule is a timeless piece ofuniversal advice. Consider the opening verses of thebook of Proverbs, which supplies their rationale, andalmost a rationale for the entire bible: "To knowwisdom and instruction, to perceive the words ofunderstanding. To receive the instruction of wisdom,justice, judgement, and equity; to give prudence tothe simple, to the young manknowledge and discretion Awise man will hear and increaselearning, and a man ofunderstanding will attain wisecounsel." Proverbs 1:2-5

Couple links life to roadKATHIE COLGROVE

NCR Reporter

Pat and Jim Miller serveup hot dogs and sausagesfrom their food trailer, mak-ing new friends as theywork.

“We’ve pretty much beenin the food business all ourlife,” Jim said.

“You mean all our mar-ried life,” interjected Pat,his wife of nearly 49 years.

The Millers’ food trailersits near the corner ofBrandies Avenue and NewOgilvie Street. TheCallahan residents chosethe spot next to RitzyResale. Jim’s niece, MargieDaniels, owns the store.Most people call Jim Miller“The Hot Dog Man.”

During their time out-doors serving customers,waving to motorists andtalking over passing trainsthat cross the nearbytracks, Pat enjoys peoplewatching as she and Jim get to know their neigh-bors.

“It’s amazing. You don’tmiss a whole lot sitting

here,” Pat said. “You do alot of waving.”

“They are nice peoplehere,” Jim said.

The couple sets up thefood trailer Fridays andSaturdays, weather per-mitting. They serve bothjumbo-sized and regular-

sized hot dogs. Sausages,potato chips and cannedsodas are also sold alongwith bagged cotton candyduring the hours of opera-tion from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.Prices for food selectionsrange from $1 to $4.

Customers from nearbystores stop by regularlywhile others pull over intheir vehicles and jump outon the spot.

“I think it’s pretty spur ofthe moment,” Pat said.

Others return becausethey like the way the hotdogs and sausages are pre-pared.

“There’s a few of themthat come back and that’swhat you want,” Jim said.“You want to serve a prod-uct that people like wellenough to come back.”

Gene and Pam Jonesrecently moved to Callahan.They stopped by to samplethe menu.

“It’s a tasty dog,” Pamsaid. “It’s good. It’s tasty. It’sdefinitely hitting the spot.All we had was pound cake

and a cookie for breakfast.”She said when her hus-

band saw the food trailer,he told her, “I feel a hot dogcoming on.”

“We love these side standhot dogs,” Gene said. “Youcan’t beat ’em.”

The Millers are accus-tomed to serving food andtreats that delight cus-tomers. For years theyworked state, local andcounty fairs in the South.Using a self-describedsecret recipe, Miller said hecooked hand-dipped corndogs and the couple servedthem to revelers duringMardi Gras, returning yearafter year to long lines ofcustomers.

He grew up workingfairs and carnivals andloved the independentlifestyle. The couple livedin the South for many yearsbefore moving to Aitkin,Minn., where they manageda fishing resort owned byPat’s brother.They moved toFlorida to be near familyand established the busi-ness in Callahan to keepthem busy.

The couple also utilizesthe food trailer for chil-dren’s parties, familyreunions and other events.

“It’s family here,” Patsaid. “It’s convenient. It getsus out of the house.”

She and Jim are alsofishing enthusiasts but theyhaven’t had many opportu-nities to cast a line into theAtlantic Ocean just yet.

“We started to go and wegot as far as Walmart andwe said, ‘We’ll do this anoth-er day,’” Pat said. “We usedto go fishing years ago, sowhen we moved to Florida,that was our priority. Weused to fish off the piers andbridges. We used to laughour heads off.”

National novel writing month underway

For the Record

Veterans Day is a time tocelebrate freedom. It is theone day of the year that allAmericans can rejoice intheir freedom to speak, wor-ship, vote, get an educationand so much more thanks tothe men and women whogave up so much to bravelyserve and preserveAmerica. Veterans deserveheartfelt thanks, respectand recognition every day ofthe year – but even moreso on Veteran’s Day.

Many are not aware ofthe many challenges facingour veterans today. The2013 Homeless Point-In-Time count revealed appro-ximately 57,849 homelessveterans on a single nightin January 2013 in theUnited States. For the U.S.

Department of VeteransAffairs, even one veteranwithout safe and stablehousing is one too many.Between 2009 and 2013, a23.49 percent reduction inveteran homelessnessoccurred, but it is still notenough.

Many veterans are notreceiving services, includ-ing healthcare, to whichthey are entitled throughthe Veterans Administra-tion. In September 2013,Barnabas began address-ing the needs of homelessveterans and those at riskof homelessness living inNassau County through theSupportive Services forVeteran Families Programmanaged by the EmergencyServices and HomelessCoalition of NortheastFlorida and funded by the

Department of VeteransAffairs.

The purpose of the SSVFprogram is to assist thesemilitary veterans in obtain-ing VA benefits and otherservices, and to provideshort-term housing assis-tance to help them get backon their feet.

Since October 2013,Barnabas has helped 23veteran families comprisedof 52 individuals who werehomeless or at risk ofbecoming homeless by locat-ing low-income rental hous-ing, providing householdgoods, bicycles for job trans-portation, clothing from theNew To You store and foodfrom the Barnabas FoodPantry.

Barnabas has alsohelped veterans receivemore of their pension bene-

fits so they can afford to liveon a modest income andreferred them to veteranhealthcare services.

What can you do to helpveterans in need? If youknow of affordable and saferental units and/or land-lords willing to take achance on a veteran andtheir family, or if you knowof a veteran in need ofSSVF services, contactBarnabas at 904-261-7000,ext. 104.

To learn more aboutBarnabas’ programs andways to support, visitwww.BarnabasNassau.org.Additional informationabout the SSVF programcan be found at www.homesforourbrave.com,www.ssvf@eshcnet.org orwww.va.gov/homeless/ssvf.asp.

Q: I want to add freshand dried herbs to oil. Ihave been told theremight be a food safetyissue if I do this on myown. Please help. CW

A: Since you were ask-ing me a food safety ques-tion, I deferred to MegMcAlpine, our FamilyConsumer Science agentwho provided informationfrom Oregon StateUniversity and ColoradoState University.Basically, garlic, vegeta-bles or herbs in an oilmixture may support thegrowth of Clostridium bot-ulinum bacteria. For safe-ty reasons, these oilsshould be made fresh.Leftovers must be refrig-erated and used withinthree days, then discard-ed. Herbed oils are madecommercially but someform of acid must beadded to the process toensure safety.

You can make flavoredvinegars using garlic, veg-etables or herbs as the

acid in the vinegar willnot allow the growth ofClostridium botulinumbacteria. However, it ispossible for some of thevinegars to support thegrowth of Escherichia colibacteria. Either infusedoils or vinegars can causegreat harm if not madeand stored properlybecause of the potentialfor harboring these deadlybacteria. The followingpublications will providemore information to avoidcontamination: http://extension.oregonstate.edu/fch/sites/default/files/documents/sp_50_701_herbsandvegetablesinoil.pdf and http://www.ext.colostate.edu/pubs/food-nut/09340.html.

Q: What is this tree? Itis planted outside mybank and I have neverseen anything like it. Ithas yellow flowers andtiny thorns. I really wantone for my yard. LC

A: I believe it is aJerusalem-Thorn tree,

Parkinsonia aculeata. It isa small, deciduous land-scape tree with delicate,tiny leaves. At maturity ithas been known to grow15-29 feet tall and spreadabout 20-25 feet.Jerusalem-Thorn thrivesin full sun and toleratesmost any type of soil. It ishighly drought and salttolerant. In spite of itsrapid growth rate, it hasstrong wood, withstanding

harsh winds with easedue to the open growthhabit. However, the treeshave a short life span,commonly living only 15to 20 years.

Poor drainage mayaccount for short life onmany sites, so locate itaccordingly in areaswhere soil is never wet formore than an hour or two.The bark is thin and easi-ly injured and the tree

appears to compartmen-talize decay poorly – sokeep the weed-eaters asfar away as possible.Locate the tree properlyand design the site tominimize trunk injury,which generally requireskeeping lawn grass faraway from the base of thetree. You may have somedifficulty locating the treeif you want to plant one inyour yard, but a reputablenursery should be able tofind you a suitable speci-men. For more completeinformation check out theUniversity of Florida pub-lication http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/st431.

Q: What is this vine?Can I eat it? LL

A: I believe it is anative annual calledcreeping cucumber,Melothria pendula, whichis in the cucumber family.The leaves are heart-shaped and lobed andhave a sand paper feel.The flowers are yellow. I

am always reluctant totell anyone they can eatsomething in the wild. Weall react differently to var-ious plant parts. The fruitis a green or black berrywith white seeds andwhile the fruit is edible, itcan be a strong laxative.Most people classify creep-ing cucumber as a weedand it can become a nui-sance because it createsseeds in large numbers.The fruit is small andoften causes digestiveproblems. Therefore creep-ing cucumber is seldomconsidered useful for veg-etable gardens.

The Warriors held their ownagainst the state’s No. 2 rankedteam, but needed a perfect gameto defeat Bolles.

Bolles secured a spot in the dis-trict playoffs with the win, enter-ing the postseason as district run-ner-up to Raines, which is rankedNo. 4.

Coach Rickey Armstrong saidthe Warriors needed a perfectgame to defeat the Bulldogs.

“We needed to play mistake-free,” he said.

Bolles opened the gameHalloween night with 14 unan-swered points in the first quarter.Davion Dubose found the end zonein the second quarter but the PATwas no good. With the score at 14-6, the momentum was up and theWarriors positioned for an onsidekick. The play was successful andWest Nassau would have movedthe ball inside the 20-yard line ona long pass, but the ball wasdropped and the Bulldogs werepoised to score again.

“It should have been 14-6 athalftime,” Armstrong said.

A chance to intercept the ballwas not successful and the gamewent into halftime 21-6.

Armstrong said various littleplays did not pan out throughoutthe game and though minor, thosewere key to West Nassau findingsuccess.

The Bulldogs opened the thirdquarter with another touchdown.

“They scored on the screen passand that screen play was perfect,”Armstrong said. “It was an awe-some play.”

Unfortunately, that play tookaway some of the Warriors’momentum. Bolles would scoretwo more unanswered touchdownsin the third quarter to go ahead42-6.

Both teams would score in thefinal quarter, as Dubose found theend zone a second time followed bya successful conversion whenGarett Delano received the ball,but the game would end at 48-14.

Dubose rushed on 18 carriesfor 123 yards. He also received sixtimes for 78 yards.

“Davion ran well,” Armstrongnoted, adding that quarterbackColton Paliana also did well.

“Colton threw some great pass-es.”

Paliana completed 9-of-16 pass-es for 86 yards, including a 18-yard pass for Dubose’s secondtouchdown.

The Warriors are 5-4 overall

and finish district action 2-2.Theyhost Yulee for Senior Night Fridayat 7:30 p.m.The Warriors are look-ing for a win after falling to Yuleethe past four years. The Hornetsare also 5-4 overall.

The Flashes faced Episcopaland were tricked into a 31-13 lossHalloween night.

The Eagles swooped down andscored the first touchdown with-in the opening minutes of thegame, putting them ahead 7-0after a successful PAT.

“They scored on the first play,”said Coach Doug Allison. “Verygood cut by their tailback.We over-pursued and it cost us.”

Episcopal would quickly addthree more points to the boardwith a 67-yard punt return, rais-ing the count to 10-0.

The Flashes hit a high note inthe first quarter when BrianClark received a 45-yard passfrom Bryce Jenkins and ran atouchdown, lifting the score to 10-6. The PAT attempt was unsuc-cessful. Clark scored a secondtouchdown on a short drive intothe end zone with 6:14 left in thesecond quarter. Brayden Carrollmade good on the PAT, drivingthe Flashes ahead 10-13. But theadvance was short-lived as theEagles quickly scored a touch-down and a PAT to make the score17-13.

The Flashes experienced a set-back when the Eagles slipped inanother touchdown with about aminute to go in the first half, rais-ing the score to 24-13.

“They were very well coachedand had lots of speed in the skillpositions,” Allison said.

Penalties held back theFlashes’ attempts to move aheadat the game’s start.

“We had less than before andless than they did,” Allison said. “Ithink we played flat at first,maybe we were too worried aboutmaking a penalty.”

Despite the setbacks, the redand white managed some gains,with Jenkins completing 19 of 36pass attempts for 166 yards.

“Bryce (Jenkins) did a good jobprotecting the ball,” Allison said.“We had some bright spots butwe were not consistent.”

Before the game’s end, theEagles scored another touchdown.The Flashes failed to gain anyadditional points for a final game

score of 31-13.Looking ahead, the team is

eager for a win as they prepare tobattle Cedar Creek at FlashesField Friday. Kickoff is at 7:30p.m.

Students will celebrate SeniorNight during the final regularseason game.

“(I) hope that they get to tastevictory on Senior Night,” Allisonsaid. “For the seniors it is an emo-tional experience. I think it willmotivate them to play well andleave a favorable memory of theircareer as a Flash.”

Following the regular season,Hilliard will head to the District

3-1A playoffs. The Flashes arerunners up and will travel to bat-tle Hamilton County Nov. 14.

Allison said the team will workto increase consistency.

“We want to be able to estab-lish the run,” Allison said. “If wecan do that, we will compete.”

He is proud of what the team

has accomplished to reach theplayoffs. He said the Flashes’ over-all effort on the field has definedthe team this season.

“Effort. The effort in games,practice and conditioning,” Allisonsaid. “This team has worked hardto be in top physical fitness.”
