Bill to repeal Obamacare
County bonusestop $1M
By STEVEN [email protected]
U.S. Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Gainesville) introduced H.R. 3784 to the House of Representatives, a bill
which, if signed into law, would repeal the Af fordable Care Act if enroll-ment does not reach
seven million by March 31, according to a news release sent Thursday.
“The Obama Administration likes to claim that this healthcare law is hugely popular and is wanted by the American people. I disagree,” Yoho said in a prepared state-ment. “If the administra-tion can’t even make their own target numbers then the American taxpayer should not be further
burdened by this terrible law.”
The bill will be known as the Nullifying the Unconstitutional Mandate by Evaluating Results (NUMBER) Act.
To date, the House of Representatives has voted, and failed, 46

Long stay at shelter may end for petsBy AMANDA [email protected]
“Bones, medium-sized beige dog. Learns quickly, loves treats and wants love.”
The comments scribbled by hand on Bones’ evaluation sheet by a Lake City Humane Society volunteer leave out the sad part of his story. Bones has been overlooked.
Since 2012, he has sat patiently at the Lake City Humane Society — energetic and friendly — while other dogs have been adopted out around him. But now, its Bones’ turn.
Today and Saturday, the Lake City Humane Society will hold a Christmas Adoption Special at Petsmart on US Highway 90 to find for-ever homes for the 10 dogs who have lived at the shelter the longest, including Bones.
“It’s Christmas time,” said Holly Dunlap, administrative assistant at the Lake City Humane Society. “We have

$35 million facility for seniors inthe worksBy STEVEN [email protected]
Capital Trust Agency plans to issue $35 million of revenue bonds toward the creation of a roughly 130-unit senior living facil-ity within city limits slated for completion late 2015.
Capital Trust Agency, an independent public body formed via an interlocal agreement between the cities of Gulf Breeze and Century in 1999, will issue $35 million of its revenue bonds to Rimrock Devlin LLC, a construction firm based in Lake City.
According to Rimrock Devlin’s website, the new facility will be located on a six-acre tract behind Big Lots in Lake City and will have around 130 housing units for seniors—72 for assisted living and 58 for memory support units.
L i v i n g V e n t u r e s Management, LLC, will be the initial managers of the new facility.
The city council unani-mously passed a resolution Monday evening approving Capital Trust’s bond issue following a series of public hearings.

Each employee to receive one-time payment of $1,650.
By STEVEN [email protected]
The board of county com-missioners approved a $1,650 bonus to its employees while commissioners sort out bud-get priorities, including the viability of across-the-board employee raises, during Thursday evening’s meeting.
County Manager Dale Williams said they plan to have the bonuses, totaling a little over $1.2 million for the county, distributed to employees sometime before Christmas.
The bonuses came in lieu of across-the-board cost-of-living raises that county employees have not seen since 2008.
“We cannot, at this time, fully implement an increase in adjusting salaries,” com-missioner Ron Williams said. “During the process of our budget hearings, we said we’d

AROUND FLORIDADistrict sued over gay-straight club
OCALA — The ACLU is suing a Florida school district for the second time this year, claiming it is once again refusing to approve a gay-straight alliance club at a middle school.
The American Civil Liberties Union filed the federal lawsuit against the Lake County Schools on Thursday. Lake County is northwest of Orlando.
Earlier this year, the ACLU sued the district after officials refused to approve a gay-straight alli-ance club at Carver Middle School. A short time later, the school board agreed to a settlement allowing the club to form.
But the board passed new rules for school clubs and required all existing clubs to reapply in order to meet.
The application for a gay-straight club at Carver Middle School was rejected.
A district spokesman says they haven’t seen the lawsuit.
Autistic boy gets to keep chickens
DEBARY — A 3-year-old autistic boy will get to keep his backyard chick-ens thanks to a decision by the DeBary City Council.
The council voted unani-mously on Wednesday to grant an exemption to the family of J.J. Hart that allows the child to keep his chickens. Earlier in December the coun-cil voted to end a pilot program that allowed residents to keep chickens with a permit.
The boy’s family says he’s made significant prog-ress since they got the chickens, which were rec-ommended by a physician as a form of therapy.
The Daytona Beach
News-Journal reports the family’s lawyer had threat-ened a lawsuit if the child wasn’t allowed to keep the chickens.
City Attorney Kurt Ardaman says the exemp-tion isn’t automatic for anyone with disabilities. Future requests will have to be approved.
History textbook under fire
OCALA — Some conser-vative activists in the Ocala area say a state-approved textbook for 10th graders slights Christianity and Judaism while being favor-ably biased toward Islam.
The Ocala Star-Banner reports that Randy Osborne, chairman of the local Republican Party, told the board recently that the book’s 36 pages about Islam were actu-ally a “propagation” of the world’s second biggest religious faith.
A spokeswoman for the publisher counters that the book meets state stan-dards in accordance with Florida’s adopted history curriculum, which directs that Christianity and Judaism be explored more
fully in earlier grades.The critics of “World
History” demanded at the School Board’s meeting in late November that the book be pulled from area schools.
A workshop with the district’s textbook selec-tion committee has been scheduled for Jan. 30.

‘I Love Lucy’ in color on CBS tonight
You look at them, and some-how it’s not how they’re supposed to look: Lucy and
Ricky, Fred and Ethel, moving around familiar sets doing their familiar “I Love Lucy” thing. And yet they seem more substantial, more real. Because this time, they are ren-dered in color.
Fred looks stylish in light-brown tweed. Ethel is resplendent in a purple Christmas dress. The furni-ture and carpeting in the Ricardos’ apartment is not gray and grayer but blue and subtly mauve. And Lucy — well, Lucy is her usual ball of chaos, with one key difference: Her red hair, implied over and over during the show’s 1951-57 run, is inevitably, assertively, undeniably, out-of-a-bottle red.
With the “I Love Lucy Christmas Special” (8 p.m. ET Friday), CBS ventures into the world of color-izing two vintage episodes of an Eisenhower-era TV show that, perhaps more than any other from that period, sent a message down through the years of what life in the 1950s (or, at least, the sitcom ver-sion) might have looked like. The episodes, CBS says, “were colorized with a vintage look, a nod to the 1950s period in which the shows were filmed.”
Seneca Falls, NY claims link to ‘Wonderful Life’
SENECA FALLS — Is this where George Bailey lived his wonderful life? Folks in this quaint upstate New York town think so.
Or more precisely, they say Bailey’s make-believe hometown of Bedford Falls in “It’s a Wonderful Life” — including the main street and the steel truss bridge — was heavily inspired by Seneca Falls.
This cannot be proven, and direc-tor Frank Capra never confirmed
such a connection. But that hasn’t stopped locals from celebrating the beloved movie every December, complete with actors dressed as Clarence the Angel and mean old Mr. Potter parading down a main street gussied up to look like Bedford Falls.
“Capra always said Bedford Falls represented little slices of small towns that he had visited all across America. We’re not in a position to dispute that,” said Francis Caraccilo, a trustee for the Seneca Falls It’s a Wonderful Life Museum. “We just think we’re a bigger slice.”
Capra’s 1946 film stars Jimmy Stewart as George Bailey, a small-town, frustrated banker who realizes his life’s value after Clarence shows him what would become of Bedford
Falls if George had never been born.The homey town falls into the
clutches of the greedy slumlord Potter, and his Pottersville becomes a city of sin, brimming with sleazy nightclubs, burlesque halls, pawn shops and neon lights.
If Bedford Falls (the nice one, not the naughty one) really was mod-eled after Seneca Falls, Capra never let on, and died in 1991. But many in this town of 9,000 say they have a strong circumstantial case.
Seneca Falls has a nice broad main street like Bedford Falls’, and there’s a bridge with a plaque dedi-cated to a man who jumped from the span to save a suicidal woman in 1917 — an act echoed in the film.

The drive lasted for one week and an estimated 1,050 LCMS students participated by donating toys, school supplies, and Christmas candy canes. More than 1,200 items were donated. Members of the Lake City Middle School National Junior Honor Society and the school’s student council led the campaign. Items collected were boxed and packed Tuesday so they could be delivered to Catholic Charities. Donna Darby, LCMS National Jr. Honor Society sponsor and Alison Eubank, LCMS Student Council sponsor, arranged the col-lection drive.

The city itself will have no obligation, ownership or any other legal or fiscal con-nection to the bonds issued by Capital Trust.
“Under [the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986], you have to have a hearing and an approval of the issuing body to move forward,” according to Capital Trust’s Executive Director Ed Gray III. “This does not at all circumvent what must take place.”
The city’s resolution of approval, passed unani-mously during a council meeting Monday night, does not constitute endorsement, zoning approval, evaluation or opinion.
“It’s just something they’re required to do by law,” Gray said.
The $35 million is part of an overall $165 million bond issue under consid-eration from Capital Trust to Rimrock Devlin finance construction of additional senior living facilities out-side of Columbia County.
Rimrock Devlin said the facility will open in late 2015.
dogs that have been here for over a year. To me, it’s so sad that these dogs have been here this long, especially Bones. This will be his second Christmas.”
The event lasts from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. today and Saturday. The 10 dogs and four cats that have been there the longest will have reduced prices. For the dogs, the normal adoption fee of $120 has been reduced to $50. For the four cats, interested adopters will pay only $40.
For the last week, a vol-unteer dog trainer, Lorraine Moore, has worked with the 10 dogs to ensure that they have good manners, behave on a leash and get along with other dogs and cats. Over the week, Moore uncovered the areas where each dog struggles and where they excel.
“We’re looking for long-term commitment,” Dunlap said. “A lot of these dogs have been here so long. ... But every dog is a good dog.”
To help new owners jump the hurdle of pet adoption, the humane society will be providing two free obedience les-sons. Dunlap said they hope to help make the relationship a good one.
While the adoption event will feature other dogs and cats, the goal is to adopt out the 10 dogs and four cats that truly
need a forever home. Teena Ruffo, operations
manager of the Humane Society, asks that people not adopt dogs or cats with the intention of gift-ing them for Christmas, unless the person receiv-ing the pet knows.
In addition to Bones, the event will feature Pollo, Gerald, Moon, Jingles, Darla, Terry, Butch, Loretta and Joey. For cats, it will feature Midnight, Destiny, Leo and Merry. Bones is the only dog in the group to have been at the shelter since 2012. The others have been admit-ted into the shelter during 2013, but some as far back as March.
“We just hope a lot of people show up,” Ruffo said. “A lot of people will be out shopping, but we don’t know how many will think, ‘Let’s go buy a dog.’ But maybe they will. Maybe they will think to save a dog’s life instead of buying something that doesn’t mean anything.”
The Humane Society warns new pet owners and current pet owners to be careful during the holiday season — since a major cause of emer-gency room visits for pets is ingestion of food and other substances. Poultry bones can splinter and get stuck in a pet’s mouth, obstruct its throat or puncture its intestines. Keep chocolate far away from dogs, as one ounce can be fatal to a dog under 10 pounds.
Holly berries and
mistletoe are extremely dangerous to pets. Decorations and gifts can become a choking hazard for dogs of all sizes.
times to repeal the ACA, also known as Obamacare. However, this would be the first repeal attempt linked to a hard enrollment quota.
According to Yoho’s chief of staff Omar Raschid, seven million was not an arbitrary number chosen by the con-gressmen or his allies.
“We’re holding the [Obama] administration to numbers they themselves set,” Raschid said. “They said the target goal is seven million enrollees. The bill as written would repeal [the ACA] completely if we don’t see that by March 31.”
However, the Congressional Budget Office was the original fed-eral entity that estimated a seven million person enroll-ment by 2014, and did not take into account an Internet rollout delayed for months by bugs and programming errors when they issued their report in May.
Once the CBO released those numbers, members from both sides of the aisle began latching on to the seven million figure as a benchmark of sustainability for Obama’s signature leg-islation.
Katherine Sebelius, direc-tor of the ACA’s exchange rollout, also said “success looks like at least seven mil-lion” during an interview with NBC news on Oct. 1, the original launch date of HealthCare.gov.
However, policy ana-lysts noted that the ACA’s viability is not contingent upon raw enrollment num-bers, but rather the ratio of young, healthy individu-als (“young invincibles”) to older, sicker citizens who enroll in the exchange.
Yoho’s bill currently has 19 cosponsors—all Republican—including Rep. Bill Posey (R-Rockledge). Yoho himself is also a cosponsor of H.R. 2300 and H.R. 3121, two alternative proposals to the ACA, the release said.
“This commonsense bill simply holds the Administration accountable to those numbers,” Yoho said. “And if they are not met the Affordable Care Act is fully repealed.”

‘Engineer’ of escape plan was SCI inmateBy MARGIE MENZELThe News Service of Florida
TALLAHASSEE — The Florida Department of Law Enforcement on Thursday announced the arrests of six current and former prison inmates in a con-tinuing investigation into two escapes using forged documents last fall.
The six face a combined 37 charges of conspiracy, escape, forgery and har-boring an escaped prison-er. Those charged include Charles Walker and Joseph Jenkins, who were serving life sentences for murder from Orange County and now face additional charg-es.
The two men escaped from Franklin Correctional Institution using bogus court paperwork indicat-
ing their sentences had been reduced: Jenkins on Sept. 27 and Walker on Oct. 8. They were captured in Panama City Beach on Oct. 19.
Authorities know of five other attempted escapes using the same method, including two that were underway when the fraud was discovered. One of the prior attempts was by Jenkins. The attempts occurred at the Franklin Correctional and Gulf Correctional institutions and the Pinellas County Jail.
FDLE Commissioner Gerald Bailey said the “very complex investiga-tion” will continue.
“These arrests represent significant progress in this case, and we definitely have a more clear understand-
ing of the fraud,” Bailey said. “But it’s important that you understand this is still an active investigation. We still have numerous leads and evidence to filter through.”
Bailey described Nydeed Nashaddai, 48, as “the engi-neer of the scheme” and “the first to use it before passing his knowledge on to his fellow inmates.” Nashaddai is at Suwannee Correctional Institution and faces an additional four counts in connection with Walker and Jenkins’ escapes.
Also arrested:Willie Slater Jr., 36, who
faces nine counts for his outside role, which includ-ed ensuring that the forged documents arrived at the Orange County Clerk of Court’s office.
Terrance Goodman, 37, who drove Jenkins and Walker to Panama City and rented them a motel room. He faces one count of harboring a fugitive and two counts of conspiracy to commit escape.
Jeffrey Forbes, 30, an inmate at Florida State Prison, who faces four counts including escape, conspiracy and forgery.
The forged documents used by Walker and Jenkins were created at Franklin Correctional Institution and included the seal of the Orange County clerk of court’s office and sig-natures of circuit officials, including Ninth Judicial Circuit Chief Judge Belvin Perry Jr. and Orange County State Attorney Jeffrey Ashton.
Bailey said so far, the
investigation hasn’t point-ed to anyone in author-ity in the criminal justice system being a part of the scheme.
“We have no indication ... that anyone in the prison system or at the clerk’s office was involved with this fraud,” he said.
But Department of Corrections Secretary Michael Crews said authorities are still exam-ining the role of the access that inmates had to com-puters and printers in the prison.
“We’re looking at what we legally have to provide,” he said.
The state expects to begin using a “secure e-sys-tem” in February 2014 to transmit court orders so as to close the door on similar attempts in the future.
Woman faces larceny chargeBy AMANDA [email protected]
A Lake City woman faces a charge of larceny after she allegedly stole prescription medication from her father and attempted to sneak more of the pills in the presence of sheriff’s deputies, according to an arrest report.
Columbia County Sheriff’s Office arrested Marsha Merie Spicer, 25, of 298 Scarlett Way, on Wednesday at approximate-
ly 1:33 p.m. When deputies responded to SE Lomond Avenue in response to a fight, deputy Charles Vaughan was approached by Spicer’s father, David Spicer.
According to David Spicer, his daughter took his prescribed medication, Percocet. As Vaughan was talking to David Spicer, Marsha Spicer walked up to the scene in tears. She refused to say where she had been when Vaughan asked, the report
said. Marsha Spicer stated she did not take all of the Percocet after Vaughan told her that her father said she had stolen his medication, the report said. She said she had only taken two pills, the report continued.
According to the police, Marsha Spicer appeared to be high and could barely stand to talk.
Vaughan continued to talk with David Spicer. When he glanced over at Marsha Spicer, sitting in a chair next to her father’s medicine bag, she had her hand inside the bag in attempt to steal more medication, the report read.

look at giving a bonus until we can get the salary sur-vey done and implement-ed.”
However, commission-ers and staff discussed the next steps in the pro-cess toward implement-ing those raises now that a comprehensive salary study is in the works.
Commissioners also approved as part of their consent agenda a $23,700 salary survey conducted by Cody & Associates, Inc.
“We have received a draft of that survey and it was received by me on Wednesday,” Dale Williams said, adding that he had “barely gleaned”
any of the information in the survey since then.
Commissioner Bucky Nash voiced his disapproval of having to pay a third party to conduct the survey.
“If you’re going to have managers, they should have enough gray matter to be able to go through and pick out the ones that are overpaid and under-paid and fix it among our-selves and save the taxpay-ers $23,000,” he said.
Nash reasoned since the last pay raises, the county has granted bonuses aver-aging about $1,000 a year to its employees.
“If you look at what we’ve done, we’ve trained the employees to expect a $1000 bonus at Christmas,” Nash said. “I’ll ask them—do you want $1,000 bonus for Christmas or do you want a raise?”
Ron Williams also noted employees’ year-end bonuses will actually total $2,000, if the waived fam-ily health insurance pre-miums are included in the equation.
Due to 2011 state leg-islation regarding the granting of bonuses, the $1,650 check is good for all employees that worked during the 2012-13 fiscal year (Oct. 1, 2012-Sept. 30, 2013). Part time employees or those hired after Oct. 1 would receive bonuses pro-rated to reflect their tenure. Employees hired after Oct. 1 of this year are not eligible for the bonus.
Once the commission-ers voted unanimously to pass the measure, Clerk of Courts DeWitt Cason shuffled out of the audito-rium to begin the neces-sary paperwork.

‘Tis the season to drive carefully
What is a ‘Buddy Bench’?
Yes, it was fun playing when we were kids. But sometimes during those long days in grade school class, I remem-
ber feeling restless, or sometimes bored. I’d gaze out the window or fall back on daydreams. Recess and lunch were often a welcome relief. Playing games or sports could be fun, or playing on the swings or slide, or sometimes just hanging around with friends. The free and unstructured activity was fun, and felt good.
But, there’s another side to the freedom. Freedom and lack of structure can come with its own costs. Sometimes I wandered around, looking for something to do, or someone to do it with. It wasn’t always easy to find activi-ties or friends to join with. It could at times be lonely or frustrating. Sometimes teachers monitored the playground or field, but kids could “fall between the cracks,” or have difficulty finding or choosing an activity, or finding someone to play with.
What’s the answer? Has anyone come up with good solutions or ideas? Sometimes the best answers can come from the children them-selves! I caught a story on network news recently: Christian Bucks, an elementary school student, had spent some time in a school
in Germany. When he returned to the States, he attended a school new and unfamiliar to him in York, Pennsylvania. He felt left out, confused, and a little shy about join-ing with a group or joining in with games or sports.
He remembered an idea he had seen in the school he attended in Germany: The school there had provided a bench on the play-ground, with a sign painted on it: “Buddy Bench.” The idea was for you to sit on the bench if you want-ed something to do, or someone to do it with. Surely there would be others who also wanted to find companionship, or activities to join. It worked well as a “connecting and coordinating station.”
Christian told his teacher about the idea. Thankfully, she was receptive and interested in the idea, and brought it to the attention of other teachers and the administra-
tion. The idea was used, and has spread, as an easy way for many schools to help with this need for connecting kids for socializing, playing, and sports.
What a great idea! My own fam-ily moved across the country a few times, and it would definitely have helped me to adjust and make new connections, and to find activities I’d have enjoyed. I’m sure there are lots of kids that would have been so much better off if they could have had that help. Who knows; maybe there would be less frustrated youth who may feel left out. Do you think it might save us from even one school shooting incident?
What you can do? Can you imag-ine the same principle being help-ful to folks of all ages? How about a “golf buddy bench,” a “bowling team bench,” an “I’ll dance with you bench,” a “club bench,” or a “look-ing for a lab partner bench?” What kind of a bench would help connect you to new activities or friends? I’m sure there are others who would want to join with you. Think about it?
Peace on Earth, good will to man . . . but on the highway, not so much.
A study by David Brown, a University of Alabama profes-
sor who studies holiday traffic (perhaps if you’re studying the traffic, it means you’re not stuck in it), found that the six days around Christmas showed 18 percent more accidents than Thanksgiving week-end, the heaviest travel days of the year, and 27 percent more than New Year’s Eve when drivers are perhaps handicapped by an excess of holiday cheer.
Claims for collisions increase by almost 20 percent during December, accord-ing to the Highway Loss Data Institute, which indicates that’s probably on the low side because many minor fender benders happen in mall parking lots and are settled privately.
The problem is that probably you and certainly your fellow drivers are stressed out and short-tempered by the extra traf-fic, including people who aren’t really sure where they’re going, and the neces-sity to pick up a lot of stuff in scattered locations.
Holidays, it is no secret, are stress-ful. State Farm Insurance found that 32 percent of drivers were likely to become more aggressive during the holidays.
Brown says that this year the worst, and most hazardous traffic, will fall on the Friday before Christmas, although the next four days leading up to Christmas are likely to be no safe-driving clinic either.
The safest day to drive? Christmas Day itself. “Nobody’s out there on the roads,” Brown said. “It’s a very safe day to drive.”
It’s also a good day to rest up, relax and unwind because that weekend there will be all the gift returns and post-Christmas sales.
As far as I know, President Barack Obama never said that if you like your life insur-ance options, you can
keep them. He may therefore get off the hook as a deceiver if the Dodd-Frank regulatory law does what is now plotted, though he will still share responsibility for the insurance provision that along with others could bloody lots of noses.
A conglomeration of marketplace interventions lovingly promoted by the president, Dodd-Frank is now barreling our way. It’s true that dif-ferent agencies had been too busy bumping into each other, consulting with affected parties and wrestling with complicated passages to get all the rules written. But Obama called the regulators in to tell them, by golly, to start regulating. And so, befuddled or not, the regulators are coming.
The idea behind the law – offi-cially known as the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act – is to make sure we never have another financial crisis of the kind we had in 2008. It was supposed to address the issue of too big to fail, does so questionably with lopsided prohibitions and is ultra-filled with a jumble of bureaucratically empow-ering irrelevancies and potentially damaging, obscure guesstimates.
This collaboration of the intel-lectually presumptuous and the ideologically driven is finally too big to succeed. Not the least of it is an unnecessary and in fact inexcusable addendum concerning life insurance companies. It lumps them with insti-tutions regarded as posing threats to the financial system if something goes terribly awry. A not infinitesimal issue is that they do no such thing.
If companies failed in insurance pursuits, many people would suf-fer, but the financial system would not be affected in a major way. It is additionally observed that states have done a reputable job oversee-ing them and that the companies themselves have done a remark-able job of sound, alert manage-ment. Intervene foolishly, and, as Iain Murray of the Competitive Enterprise Institute has written with reference to a study, purchasers could some day have fewer choices in policies that could also cost more and return less.
Members of both parties in Congress are wise to this stupidity and just maybe, conceivably, will do some little something about it, though that would be a meager start to what is really needed. What’s hugely important to a decent American future are bold, enlightened souls who will further reshape Dodd-Frank and, beyond that, reduce the rest of our egre-gious regulatory excess. Right now the mishmash exceeds an astound-ing 134,000 pages of federal rules that are more than a little punish-ing, as an underpublicized study underlines.
Two economists (John Dawson and John Seater) estimated that federal regulations promulgated over the past 60 years may have
made Americans close to one-fourth as well-off as we would be with-out them. If, then, you want some rough notion of what a more liber-ated economy might possibly have done for you, multiply your current income by four.
But wait. Weren’t many of those regulations really, truly needed? Yes, of course. But many weren’t and are constitutional affronts. As a Wall Street Journal series showed, a vast number have even led to criminal charges against people who could not possibly have known they were violating any stricture, a practice aspiring to despotism.
Look, too, at how nothing is too tiny to generate colossal govern-mental consternation. Right now, the Federal Trade Commission is going after a 137-year-old, nonprofit music association for suggesting to its members – mostly piano teach-ers – that they shouldn’t try to recruit students from each other. A Journal columnist, Kim Strassel, notes that the group has had to turn over thousands of documents, sign a silliness-ridden consent decree and submit to a burdensome, costly 20-year antitrust compliance pro-gram. And for what? Proffering an admonishment.
It’s craziness that won’t affect most of us the way new life insur-ance rules might and Obamacare has recently been doing by stick-ing consumers with higher health insurance deductibles. But it does help describe the current reign of in-your-face governmental bullying.

director. “The food has been donated compliments of all of the churches in the area, as well as individuals who have donated funds to help us purchase food and the Kiwanis Club of Lake City who have also donated many baskets towards the total.”
Daly said approximately 260 families will be receiv-ing the baskets for feeding around 600 people.
The Christmas basket giveaway began Thursday morning around 8:30 p.m. and went to 5 p.m. Approximately 25 Christian Service Center of Columbia County volunteers helped pack and organize or carry the food to the clients’ vehicles as they pulled into the facility’s warehouse parking lot.
The Christmas baskets contained turkey, eggs, bread, yogurt, stuffing, vegetables and a variety of other items that are normally cooked for a tradi-tional Christmas meal.
Baskets were also slated to be given to clients today who were unable to pick up their baskets Thursday.
Law enforcement offi-cers were on site to make sure there were no traffic issues.
“The city does not like us to back traffic up out onto a thoroughfare, so it helps us to keep the traffic moving appropriately and it makes sure nobody gets hurt,” Daly said.
She said the operation went “smooth as glass” and everyone had a good time participating.
“We prayed with each individual that comes through,” Daly said, noting local pastors that support CSC were on hand to pray with clients as they leave the premises.
Russell Taylor, Christ Fellowship Baptist Church pastor, prayed with several of the clients and helped volunteers throughout the day.
“I talked to Kay and felt like this ministry has a great deal of integrity and has a heart to fulfill our calling as Christians and minister to those people that are in genuine need and this is the best place I know to do that,” he said. “We wanted to be involved in it for that reason and it’s been a blessing to be able to watch the way people respond and watch what God is doing through this ministry.”
The Christian Service Center is scheduled to be closed the week of Christmas and Daly said they decided to give the baskets the week before. The Christian Service Center and its Lighthouse Gift Shop is slated to re-open Jan. 2.
GIVEAWAYContinued From 1A Over 21,000 shoeboxes filled
By AMANDA WILLIAMSON
Toothbrushes, soap, school supplies and toys were packed neatly into shoe-box-sized contain-
ers throughout the year to be shipped this December to more than 100 different countries for Operation Christmas Child — a program designed to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with children around the world.
The North Central Florida area donated 21,000 shoeboxes for this year’s holiday season, and their boxes are already on their way across the world. Shipped out of Atlanta, the presents will find their way to Belize, Botswana, Columbia, Gabon, Haiti, Ghana, Madagascar, South Africa, Trinidad, Ukraine and more.
“It’s a great way of spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ — one child at a time,” said Jo-Ann Pettigrew, the local collection center coordinator. “The kids in the foreign countries we send to — over 130 — can not go to school if they don’t have school supplies. So we try to include pencils, paper, erasers and more.”
According to Pettigrew, the 21,000 boxes totals 2,000 more boxes than they sent out last year. She said it’s been an awesome year, despite the economy.
The local collection area cov-ers 10 counties, including Baker, Columbia, Dixie, Gilchrist, Hamilton, Lafayette, Levy, Madison, Suwannee and Taylor.
Throughout the year, churches,
volunteer organizations and chari-ties collect supplies to be includ-ed in the Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes. The program allows school supplies, hygiene items and toys. People are not allowed to send damaged or used items, war-related items, food, medications or breakable items.
Started more than 20 years ago by Franklin Graham, Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samatrian’s Purse. It has provid-ed more than 103 million shoebox gifts since its inception. When the shoeboxes reach their destina-tion, pamphlets are also given to children by the program to teach about the Scriptures.
In Lake City, Jo-Ann Pettigrew and her husband Bob Pettigrew, who also works as a local collec-tion center coordinator, attend the Orchard Community Church. Every month, they attempt to col-lect donations of a different item to be included in the annual boxes. For example, one month they may collect soap and washcloths, then the next month collect small toys.
“The stuff that goes into these shoeboxes, if we offered it to kids in the United States, they’d laugh at us,” Bob Pettigrew said. “But to the kids these boxes go to, they’ve never had anything.”
Jo-Ann Pettigrew remembers a story told by the Suwannee Valley Area Coordinator Colleen Ruehl about a boy in Peru who opened his box and pulled out the soap. He smelled the bar, Jo-Ann Pettigrew said, and then told the volunteers it was the nicest thing he had ever smelled.
According to Bob Pettigrew,
Florida and Puerto Rico collected approximately 500,000 boxes this year. The children and volunteers get the boxes to their destina-tions any way they can — some boxes get parachuted in, some arrive by boat, others by camel, donkey or cart.
“We appreciate all the folks that have helped here,” Bob Pettigrew said, adding that any church that wants to participate next year should just call him for information.
To reach Bob and Jo-Ann Pettigrew, contact them at 386-935-1958.

FAITH & VALUESFriday & Saturday, December 20 & 21, 2013 www.lakecityreporter.com 6A
6AF&V
We visited a church last week to hear their Christmas
program. I noticed they had a large cross over their baptistry and at the foot of the cross a baby lying in a crib looking up at the cross. What a great idea.
The Lord Jesus came as a little baby in a manger; looking toward the cross. Paul told young Timothy in 1 Timothy 1:15, “This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.” We who are Christian should praise God everyday for this act of love toward us.
We are today in what many refer to as the “age of deception.” Many are so caught up in the things of the season that they forget Jesus’ real reason
for coming to earth. They
forget that He could return for His church at any time.
The Bible speaks of at least five crowns the Christian can win. One is the watchers crown. In 2 Timothy 4:8 we read, “Finally there is laid up for me the crown of righteous-ness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing.” Those who are watching for the Lord’s return are think-
ing about the things we ought to be thinking about.
The great deceiver loves this time of year when so many forget about “The Blessed Hope.” That is what the coming again of our Lord Jesus for His church is called. More than 320 verses in the New Testament alone refer to this event — “The Blessed Hope.” Almost every book deals with it to some degree, but chapter 24 of Matthew is among the most complete on the subject.
Matthew 24 was not writ-ten to the unbeliever, but to the believer. Verse four says “Take heed that no one deceive you.” I believe you could safely say no one or nothing. Many are deceived this season of the year. The great deceiver is very hard at work taking people’s mind off Christ.
Many don’t even think about the babe in the man-ger. Being careful not to be deceived seems to be first on the list of concerns and signs of the coming again of our Lord. The same warn-ing is recorded in Mark 13:5-6 and Luke 21:8.
The last days of decep-tion will be characterized by the multiplication of false doctrine and decep-tive cults. How significant is this warning in the light of the amazing increase of new sects and cults and isms. No matter how fanatical or satanic these are, people still fol-low them. It is said that there are over 350 differ-ent sects, cults, denomi-nations, and groups in American today. All claim to be right. The question is: Where can the truth be found? The answer is this:
The Word of God is the only truth concerning this.
The moment we accept a tradition of man or some new movement or new discovery, we are led astray. Anything added or taken away from God’s Word (2nd Timothy 2:15) is wrong and leads to deception. We therefore confidently believe that the signs of the time as record-ed in God’s Word indicate the soon return of the Lord for His own. His own will be those as recorded in John 3:16: “For God so loved the world, that He gave His own begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
Trust Him today.
The holiday season is a season of deception

BIBLE STUDIES
In several of his letters, Paul encourages the members of various
churches to whom he has written to be of “one mind.” How can a group of people from assorted back-grounds and nationalities be of “one mind?”
Quite often it is a very difficult task to get a group of people together to accom-plish a certain function. When this group is of a religious nature, sometimes it seems almost impossible to get them to all agree, to be of one mind. Look at our world and all the different religious practices.
We need to consider and think that it is possible for us to be of “one mind.” The apostle Paul would not have told us to be of “one mind” if it were impossible to do, therefore it is pos-
sible. We simply need to change our thinking. Paul expects us to be of “one mind.” It is possible.
As we meditate upon how we can be of “one mind,” let us first think about what it means, and second, how we can put it into practice in our local congregations.
When we are of “one mind” we are in unity. We have the same mission. We
have the same purpose, the same goals. Everyone is going in the same direc-tion. We might say that we have “joined hands” to make this program work.
One of the mandatory things which we must do if we are going to be of “one mind” is to forget our “own mind.” Replacing our “own mind” with the “one mind” of the group, we put our-selves in the background and move the group to the forefront. We must be “group oriented.” We must be seeking the desires of the leader of the group. In the case of a local church, it is the desires of Jesus since He is the Head of the group.
There must be a willing-ness to cooperate with the other members of the group. Each individual member must be looking
at themselves and saying, “How can I be part of this group?” “What contribu-tions can I make to this group?” “How can I be a team player?”
When differences of opinion arise as to how something must be accom-plished, and they will, we must think of what is best for the group. We must not think of our own prefer-ences but what is the pref-erence of the leader of the group, namely Jesus. What is His opinion as to how things must be done? What are His desires and wishes?
Religiously, congrega-tions need to be of “one mind.” They need to be working together to accom-plish the things which Jesus wants them to accom-plish. They need to be on the same page as to how
they can fulfill the mission that Jesus gave to the local congregation. They need to be working together, and not as disjointed individuals working their own agendas.
A small band of Christians, working with “one mind” can accom-plish great feats! In fact, they probably can accom-plish more than congre-gations twice their size solely because they are of “one mind.” By the same principle, if all the various religious groups were of “one mind,” what could be accomplished for the cause of Christ?

Lake City All-American
PAUL BUCHANAN/Lake City Reporter
Lake City product Timmy Jernigan Jr. (8) makes a tackle for Florida State University against North Carolina State during a game earlier this year. Jernigan was named a second-team member of the All-American team on Tuesday.
Jernigan Jr. stood out from early age

Timmy Jernigan Jr. looks across the field in a game earlier this year.
By BRANDON FINLEY
By now the national audience knows the name Timmy Jernigan Jr. He’s one of many stars of the Florida State Seminoles, which will play Auburn for a national title.
But Jernigan Jr.’s name has been known in Lake City for a long time. Even before being named to the Associated Press All-American team, those around him knew he was going to be a star.
County Commissioner
Ron Williams coached Jernigan Jr. for one year during his youth years and knew right away that he was going to develop into a monster on the field.
“Believe it or not, all the credit goes to his daddy,” Williams said. “He worked with him all the way up. I knew that he should have a Hercules. I knew his daddy would have him ready to be a stud. He was dedicated to have him ready men-tally and physically. He’s just a Hercules, so big and muscular.”
Columbia County
Recreation Director Mario Coppock also knew of Jernigan Jr.’s potential from an early age.
“He was involved with the youth early on,” Coppock said. “He just grew big-ger and faster. By the time he was in middle school, we all knew. I remember watching and people would double- and triple-team him to no avail. What I liked the most about him is that he enjoyed playing the game.”

Florida/Michigan agree to meet in Cowboys Classic
Associated Press
Florida and Michigan will open the 2017 season in the Cowboys Classic in Arlington, Texas.
The prime-time game is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 2.
It will be Florida’s first regular-season, non-con-ference game outside the Sunshine State since the Gators lost at Syracuse in
1991.“You don’t get these oppor-
tunities very often,” Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley said. “Our schedule has been pretty consistent through the years. We were presented this oppor-tunity and just thought it was something that our fans would embrace, our program would embrace. It would give us great national visibility. Obviously, a very difficult ball game against a storied program — that excites us.”

Diverse field for best ball
Masters adds 14 from world rankingAssociated Press
Augusta National added 14 players to the field for the Masters when the final world ranking of the year was published this week.
That brings the field to 90 players who are expected to compete April 10-13, and again rais-es the possibility of the Masters exceeding 100 players for the first time in nearly 50 years.
Augusta National has the smallest field of the four majors and prefers to keep it under 100 to enhance the overall experience at its tournament.
This is the third time in the last four years that the field was at least 90 players going into a new calendar year.
There were 99 players for the 2011 Masters, the most since 103 players competed in 1966.
Those who qualified by being in the top 50 of the final ranking were Hideki Matsuyama, Thomas Bjorn, Jamie Donaldson, Victor Dubuisson, Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano, Miguel Angel Jimenez, Francesco Molinari, Rickie Fowler, Matteo Manassero, David Lynn, Thongchai Jaidee, Peter Hanson, Joost Luiten and Branden Grace.
Fowler was the only American of the 14.

Timmy Jernigan Jr. takes on two offensive linemen from Bethune-Cookman University during a game for the Seminoles last season.
PAUL BUCHANAN/Lake City Reporter
Timmy Jernigan Jr. looks for the ball in a game for the Seminoles this season.
Brian Allen didn’t have the chance to coach Jernigan Jr. while he was a Tiger, he did have contact with him before he signed with the Seminoles.
“When I first got back here and he was a senior, he did weightlifting with us,” Allen said. “I see how much he’s grown as a man. From the time he was in eighth grade, I knew that he was going to be a domi-nant player from seeing him work at the Showtime Camp at Florida State. I was able to see his ability when he was going against seniors.”
And of course, all of those that know him are proud of the man Jernigan Jr. is becoming.
“He’s maturing both on and off the field,” Allen said. “We definitely have had a relationship devel-op. It’s impressive to see how much he’s grown as a man and he gets that from everyone from the top down. It’s a pleasure to have another kid go on and represent the school well. Every time he makes a tackle, you get to see the Columbia on the screen. He’s holding the rope for the program.”
Coppock believes Jernigan Jr. being select-ed as an All-American is something that everyone in the county should cel-ebrate together.
“It’s an award for the community and something we can share in with him as a hometown product,” Coppock said. “He’s fol-lowing in the footsteps of his father and certainly living up to him. He had big shoes to fill, but he’s doing a great job of filling them.”
The Jernigans did not return calls seeking comment.
Michigan will be the away team, Florida the home team. Game offi-cials and replay crew will come from the Big 12 Conference.
Each school will receive 25,000 tickets for the neutral-site game at AT&T Stadium, home to the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys. The $1.2 billion stadium opened in 2009. It already hosted the Super Bowl and is scheduled for the 2014 NCAA men’s Final Four and the first college foot-ball national championship under the new playoff for-mat in January 2015.
Michigan played in 2012 Cowboys Classic, losing 41-14 to Alabama.
“We are excited to make a return trip to Dallas for the Cowboys Classic against Florida,” Michigan coach Brady Hoke said. “This is a great way to reach our fan base in the south and to con-tinue to expand our recruit-ing efforts in the state of Texas. Our goal is to have as many Michigan fans at the game as possible.”
This will be the third meeting between Michigan and Florida. Both previous matchups came in bowl games. Michigan won both: a 38-30 victory in the 2003 Outback Bowl and a 41-35 victory in the 2008 Capital One Bowl.
Florida has struggled to fill stands for home games
the last few years, espe-cially in games against non-conference opponents aside from Florida State. So moving a home date to a neutral-site venue — and guaranteeing a sellout and a significant payout — made sense financially.
“This is a great oppor-tunity to expose the University of Florida nationally, playing one of the greatest programs in the history of college foot-ball,” Foley said. “I think a tremendous trip for our fans. We just haven’t done much of this, certainly as long as I’ve been athletic director. I think there are a lot of positives that come out of it.”
4B LAKECITYREPORTERADVICE & PUZZLES FRIDAY&sATuRDAY,DECEMBER20-21,2013
DEAR ABBY: I have been married to my wife for a year and a half, and we have an infant child. I work while my wife stays home. My problem is she doesn’t like me play-ing sports and hanging out with friends.
I have tried to make concessions and cut down playing sports to once a week. (I used to play two or three times a week, but that’s not good enough for my wife.) On game night, when I get home she gives me the silent treatment. She used to come to my games but won’t now, even though she has girl-friends who attend them.
As for hanging out with my friends, I barely see them anymore — and when I do, they come here. If they stay any longer than 30 min-utes, it causes a problem and my wife again won’t talk to me for the rest of the night.
I have tried to com-promise, but she feels as though any time I spend away from her and the baby is a no-no. Am I wrong to want to play sports and see my guy friends? I have tried talking to her about this, but she thinks any compromise is basically me doing what I want and her having to deal with it. — ONTARIO, CANADA, READER
DEAR READER: You should not become a couch potato or become isolated from your friends because you are married and a parent. And neither should your wife. She may resent the time you spend with your friends because
she’s stuck at home taking care of the baby. You are her only adult company, and in a way she may be jealous that you’re enjoying freedom that she can’t.
Your wife should not be doing all the parent-ing. One day or evening a week YOU should take care of the baby while SHE takes a break with her friends or family. It could do wonders for your relationship.
If you can agree on this, it could save your mar-riage. If you can’t, then the two of you should get counseling. Marriage isn’t supposed to put people in isolation -- and that’s what it appears your wife is trying to accomplish with you.
Holiday plans to be made together
DEAR ABBY: For the past 10 years, the holiday season has brought with it arguments between my wife and me. We both get along with our in-laws and do many things with both sides of our families. But for some reason, my wife makes arrangements for the holidays without discussing them with me first. This year, she told her mom we would host Thanksgiving and that I would have to tell my family we wouldn’t be
coming to them.My wife’s sisters are
not close to their in-laws. Am I wrong to think she should have discussed the matter with me before deciding unilaterally what we’re doing for the holidays? Our kids need to see ALL their grand-parents on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Oh — our parents live only seven minutes from each other. — HOLIDAY BLUES IN WISCONSIN
DEAR HOLIDAY BLUES: What your wife did was inconsiderate. You are a couple, and she should have discussed her plan with you before issuing any invitations to see if you were in agree-ment. If your home is too small to accommodate both sets of in-laws at the same time, a compromise would be to alternate holidays with each set so no family feels excluded.
Smartphone keeps sisters from talking
DEAR ABBY: My younger sister “Lainie” is 14. She has had a smart-phone for about a year. While I don’t belong to any social media sites, Lainie is a social media junkie. She never goes anywhere without her phone. Sometimes she’ll have her phone in one hand and her tablet in the other, taking turns when one or the other begins to bore her. It’s almost impossible to interact with her because her face is buried in the virtual world just about every hour of the day and night.
I miss the way things used to be before she got that smartphone. I have
talked about this with my parents. While they are equally concerned about Lainie’s withdrawn, some-times secretive behavior, they never do anything about it. What are your thoughts on this topic? — GADGET GIRL’S SISTER IN NEW MEXICO
DEAR SISTER: It’s common for teens to spend a lot of time on their phones and com-puters. But when they become withdrawn and secretive, it is time for a parental intervention. If your folks are equally con-cerned about your sister’s behavior, they should step in, find out what’s going on and do something about it, if necessary. If they don’t already, they could start by schedul-ing family dinners during which cellphones are turned off or put away.
Wedding guest questions attire
DEAR ABBY: Is it acceptable to wear a sil-ver dress to a wedding if you are going as a guest and not a member of the bridal party? Or is silver too close to white and therefore taboo? — INVITEE IN COLLEGE PARK, MD.
DEAR INVITEE: The rule is that wedding guests should not wear anything that might dis-tract attention from the bride. If your dress is silver lame or covered in silver sequins, it would be better to dress less conspicuously.
HOROSCOPES
DEAR ABBY
ARIES (March 21-April 19): A change of attitude will give you the confidence you need to make things happen in your life. Explore new people, places and pastimes and you will discover something or someone you really enjoy. A little effort will go a long way. HHHHH

not what you give, that counts. HHHHH
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Ask ques-tions and stay on top of a situation that con-cerns you emotionally. A couple of changes may be required in order to please someone you love. Be careful while travel-ing or dealing with sticky situations. Listen to con-cerns carefully. HHH

March 20): It’s play-time. Have fun with friends, family or your lover. Expand your inter-ests by trying some-thing new. Get in the spirit of the season and pick up items that will boost your confidence or please someone you love. HHH
Happy Birthday: There is money to be made, but budgets must be kept. Your easy come, easy go attitude will need adjusting if you want to prosper. Dedication and detail will have to be a priority if you want to impress anyone influential in your life. Be a leader, not a follower, and you will set a new standard and gain respect. Your numbers are 6, 10, 17, 27, 36, 38, 47.
