Investigation continues into plane crash Five killed in crash off Rolling Pines Road A private flight from Destin to the Bahamas for Christmas turned tragic Friday morning when five people died in a small twin-engine plane crashed at approximately 9: 05 a.m. Friday, Dec. 22. The plane was a Cessna Golden Eagle 421. The Cessna is registered to Island Times, LLC, 41 the Greenway Loop, Panama City Beach. FAA officials have identified the five victims as Pilot John Johnson of Panama City, and passengers Deborah Irby, and her mother Wanda Irby, Roxanne. Costello and her husband Barry Delone, all of Seacrest Beach, Florida. Washington County sheriff's officials received a call from Tyndall Friday morning saying they were talking with a pilot who was flying a twin-engine Cessna Golden Eagle 421. Heavy rain and thunderstorms caused the base to lose contact with the pilot. The plane then disappeared from radar right off Highway 77 in Washington County. just north of Highway 20 off Rolling Pines Road. Officials say the corporate plane, owned by Island Times LLC, was built in 1974. Washington County Sheriff's investigators secured the crash scene and waited for federal in- vestigators to arrive. The crash happened in a rural area close to one small home. There was no damage to any property. Sheriff Bobby Haddock told Channel. 7, "The witness heard a loud noise this morning. He was standing outside and heard a loud noise when the thunderstorm came through. And once the rain subsided, he got out and looked to see what had happened, and he found the crash." Investigators had been search- ing for the plane crash for about an hour and a half before receiving a call from the eye witness who discovered the crash. Officials say the crash scene is a quarter to a half a mile long from the impact. It was very hard to get to as the plane crashed into a densely wooded area that was extremely wet and muddy. FAA and NTSB officials are still investigating what caused the crash. The Cessna 421 According to Wikpedia, the online dictionary, the Cessna 421 Golden Eagle is a development of the earlier light, twin-engine Cessna 411personal transport aircraft. The main difference is the switch to geared engines rather than the traditional direct drive models, meaning that rather than the drive shaft being direct connected to the propeller, they are connected through a series of reduction gears. This further meant that the en- gines had to operate at different RPM settings from traditional en- See CRASH, page 3A Perry's Prattle...... ..........................0...1A/\Weather Si r a Wednesday Sunny.

Some tips on bass fishing with the help of electronics E To some anglers, electron- ics, the type you'll find at the console and on the box\ of any modem fishing boat. can be a little confusing. Why? " ?. Because of the misnomer i-, that is attached to them "fish, finders." I. like most ever one else. have heard this expression a million times and it still seems funny to me. If they . found fish, like the term sug- .. Z gets. then \vh\ aren't \%e all catching our limits of huge fish everN time \%e turn the thing on? The truth is. electronics S. aren't necessarily used to find fish but to find structural breaks, rock piles or stumps that can help you locate fish. These high-tech electronics give you a pair of under\\ ater eyes so that you can tell what the bottom of the fishery is like..It's not just a bowled out hole out there there are humps, drops, channel _swings, points and isolated pockets of cover and that's what I am looking to find. Often times, when I'm slowly motoring over a big flat area that is for example - eight-feet deep. I am watch- ing .my electronics like a ha% k % waiting for the depth to drop to 10 or 11 feet and rise back up to eight feet. That tells me that there's a change in structure and contour.. After I drop some marker buo s overboard to mark the spot of the transition, I'll start casting something like a crankbait. maybe a rig with a lizard or a heavy jig. These baits \\ill come into contact with the bottom and let me P47Y cially important this time of year as we approach winter and colder temperature throughout most of the coun. try. In winter, bass are more lethargic and are most ofteri found deep in the fishery's warmest water. So, I look on my electronics for deep water with vertical break ar eas, places where the channel swings to create depth. To catch more fish using your electronics, it's impor tant to disregard this "fish finder" misnomer and not use it as a crutch. By using the equipment actively and searching for areas where fish should be, most ofteit you, won't actually have to see the fish to catch it.

ROUNDUP Continued from page 5A career-high 49 against Cbipley on Monday and added another gem of a .performance Thursday. Kirkland added 15 re- bounds to his 45 points. Holmes County boys *The Marianna Bulldogs improved to 4-3 on the season with a hard fought 54-46 home win over the Holmes County Blue DeV- ils. Mariianna once again re- lied on point leader Bran- don Gibson who tallied 22 points on the night to bol- ster his average per game to 21.4 points per game. The Bulldogs were slug- gish in the first quarter with just eight points to show for their eight minutes of play; The Blue De\ ils countered with 11 points. Both teams were evenly matched at 15 points in the second quarter with Chris Garrett picking up six points, to include 2-for-2 from the line while T. J. Spencer and Gibson both had shots from downtown. The Bulldogs trailed 25-23 at the half. The Bulldogs came out of the locker room and put up eight points and were able to hold their op- ponents to eight points and keep the margin at three going into the final quarter of play. In the end the Bull- dogs outscored the Blue Devils 24-1.2 in the final quarter of play to win.

Also, these baits cover a lot of water so I can find out pretty quick whether or not there's a fish in the area that I can catch. When the time comes that I anf using my electronics to find. a fish, I'm still not nec- essarily looking for a bass. Mostly, I am looking for fish activity especially baitfish which show up as dark clouds on the electronics. If I see that the depth of the water is, for example, 25 feet and the bait fish are at 15 feet, then I know to focus my efforts in 15 ,feet of water since that is the depth where the feeding is taking place.

Our youngest son, Gor- don, really gets serious when it comes to Christ- mas shopping. The other three, Emory, Grant and Timothy, are no "slouch" when selecting appropriate gifts for each other and for various family members. Gordon usually gets so excited about a particular purchase that he cannot wait until December 25 to present it. This, happened again this year when he bought and immediately brought to his mother, Hester, a 1963 book entitled, "Min- nie Pearl's Christmas at Grinders Switch," with an introduction by Tennessee Ernie Ford. From this. book, I hope to "build" an -enjoyable 'Perry's Prattle" today by using some excerpts begin- ning with the notes on the front and back covers. "Every Saturday night on the Grand Ole Opry for twenty-three years there's a familiar greeting. unlike any other, that Opry fans recognize as the voice of Minnie Pearl, 'Howdee I'm just so proud to be here'. Christmas at Grind- ers Switch lets us know that's exactly what Min- nie Pearl is a full of life, happy, wonderful sort of person really 'just so proud to be here'." "In this little book about Christmas in the country, Minnie Pearl tells how the folks get the: Christmas spirit way back in the fall when they start picking out presents from the Sears catalog. There's such a Christmas glow it extends all the way ,from Ceph Jones's General Store to Lem Perkins' pasture'. E.v- erybody goes to the woods for Christmas greens and a big cedar tree to put in the comer of the sitting room. They hang the decorations, play games, and fix up bas- kets for the needy folks." "But there's a lot more to Christmas than "gift giv- ing' at least at Grinders Switch. For the best part: of all is when everybody goes singing to the church for the Christmas play on Christmas Eve. And when, the church is 'lit up and that pot-bellied stove in the comer red as fire .and a-going full blast' with 'smell of cedar and the colored lights glowing well it's jest almost more than a body can stand. All you kin do is jest say to yourself over and over, '0 Lord, you're so good to all of us!'" "If you know Minnie Pearl you'll want to read about her kind of Christ- mas. If you don't here she is with a big smile and a Merry Christmas from Grinders Switch.". ' Now for a portion of Perry s Prattle . ... ,.- -. j Above: Minnie Pearl (Mrs. Henry Cannon) was born and raised as Sarah Ophelia Col- ley in the small town of Centerville, Tenn. She majored in dramatics at Ward-Belmont College in Nashville and created a unique role for herself on the Grand Ole Opry as Minnie Pearl where she appeared for 23 years. aTennessee Ernie's intro- duction: "The book you are about to read was writ- ten by Mrs. Sarah Ophelia Cannon. lovingly known by million as 'Cousin. Minnie Pearl from Grind- ers Switch, Tennessee'. Would that all of you could know this lady as I do; her warmth, sincerity, intelli- gence, and straightforward honesty would charm the coldest heart...and so, in fantasy. join me in this winter journey to a rather remote part of Tennessee, and enjoy Christmas at Grinders Switch with Min- nie Pearl and her own...a charming lady who has dedicated her life to mak- ing people happy..." The following are some "'funnies" from Minnie Pearl's Christmas book: "Uncle Nabob always says if we could jest hold onto a little of that Christmasy feeling all year 'round, we, wouldn't hafta worry about no atomic bomb. Unk says if we could just learn to git along with the fellers that live next door and the ones acrost the hollow, maybe we could git along with the folks in foreign lands." "Gittin' the gifts all ready and the decorations up w\as so exciting' we could hardly sleep at night. Brother was kinda hard to get Christ- mas gifts fer. I said to uncle Nabob jest last year, I said, 'I wish I could git Brother something' he's never had before' and Unk says, 'Why don't you git him a steady job?" "I remember the first time we got him a store- boughten suit. It had two pairs of pants! That was nice for the winter, but wearing' both pairs got aw- ful hot come summer."

I never did take a good picture nohow. I said to the photographer, I said, 'That picture don't do me justice!' And he said, 'Lady, you don't need jus- tice, you need mercy!' "One year, I sorta men- tioned to Hezzie, my boy- friend, how: nice it would be if I had something puny to go on my left hand. Well, do you know what he went and done? He got me a glove a left glove!" ,"Ope year I decided to fix, Hezzie a Christmas dinner and I really fixed up a fine table full of vittles. While we were a-eating. I said to Hezzie, 'I don't aim to brag but if I say so, as I shouldn't, there's two things I can sure make and that's cocanut puddin' and mashed potatoes.' Hez- zie jusf nodded and said, 'Which one am I a-eatin now?" Minnie Pearl concludes her Christmas book with her more,, serious side of paying tribute at Christmas to Our Lord. the Nativity Scene, the Shepherds and the Wise Men and remem- bering those less fortunate than ourselves. Johnnie Hall of Chipley has a reputation of doing an imitation of the Min- nie Pearl comedy act. We coaxed her into perform- ing at a watermelon festi- val many years ago and it went over great! That may have been the year Minnie Pearl de- clined to visit our annual watermelon event with the following letter of re- gret: "July 1, 1990, Perry Just got your letter. Sure Minnie Pearl Museum logo., wish I could come see you but doctor's orders I am slaying close to home. All my love to everyone in Chipley. Thank you for thinking of me Love Minnie Pearl." Minnie died a short time later. I never had the privilege of ,meeting her. I have used her jokes and humor down+ through the years and am happy to use more of it in this article. I'11 see you-all next week, hopefully with some more Christmas wrap-up. Last Heritage Books Eighty Heritage of Washington County books recently.. arrived 4t Wash- ington County Library in Chipley.

The book "A Christmas Secret" by Anne Perry was reviewed by Wanda Howell. Dominic Corde is thrilled to "fill the robe" as substitute vicar in the village of Cot- tisham while the Rev. Wynter is away on a three week Christmas holiday. Glad to escape his dreary London flat and a less than satisfying job as church curate, Dominic and.his beloved wife. Clarice, set off for what they hope will be a lovely winter getaway. Dominic's only concern is how the congregation, who holds the Reverend Wynter in such high regard., will receive him.

John 1:1 DECEMBER 27,2006 Page 2, Real Power, Wednesday, December 27, 2006 The year of... ! REV. TIM HALL, pastor Blue Lake Baptist Church As we look forward to the new .year, we often have great antici- pation of what the new year will bring. Many are hoping to get out of a slump that they have found themselves in, due to bad work conditions, a failed relationship, misled financial planning, or even. .the death of a loved one in the previous year. A new year offers hope and a clean slate to start over in our mind's eye. Personally, whatever good thing that you hope the new year will bring, I hope you find it. As with everyone else, there are always many things that I hope the new year brings, but my list is simple and short. My first wish and prayer is for revival in 2007. The one thing that this country and the world needs more than anything else is for His church to experience true revival. Though the word "revival" is a word that the church has used for many years to designate a set of meetings in the local church,. true revival is much more than meeting and listening to singing and preaching, though they may be an instrument that the Lord uses to ignite revival, if He desires.. If you are familiar with the word "revive," you know that it is a medical term' used to refer to bring- ing someone or something that was dead,. back to life. So you may ask, "Do I feel the church is dead?" Well,. hopefully not dead, but asleep, needing to be awakened. Every week we hear of churches and church organizations adopting things and rules into their fellowship that are immoral (ungodly) in order to appease people. The local church has become more concerned about programs that entice and entertain the popu-. lace rather than being the church which God calls His people to be. We .have forgotten that church is not about a style of music or preaching. The church is a place where disciples of Christ come together to adore and worship our Lord and Savior, then go out and share the Good News that is so dear to us, as He has given us life and offers it to everyone who will receive it. When true revival takes place, in an individual, church, community or nation, we will not be debating what style of music or preaching each of us like. We won't be debating what place the homosexual, the adulterers, pornographers, child abusers (those who support abortion) murderers, liars, robbers, gossipers, alcoholics, druggies, etc. have in the church. When revival comes, the church will confess Christ as Lord and we will place these things before Him. Those who want to hold on to the lust of the flesh will leave, while the ones that love the Lord will place all these things under the blood of Christ, receive His forgiveness and power to overcome them as we place ourselves before Him to serve Him and share the great things that He has wrought in our life. Because of revival in the sanctified church, the world will once again see Him shining through us as the church truly once again becomes the salt that we should be and will make people 'thirsty for the truth and be the light .thatwill help then to see and follow . May 2007.be the year of REVIVAL!. And may it be the year that Christ returns for His church-. \ fy prayer for 2007 is much like that of John in The Revelation ofJesus Christ chapter 22, verse 20, where Christ says "Surely I come quickly" and John responds "Amen, even so, come, Lord Jesus!"

Fax: (850)638-0973 Rocky makes comeback asreborn : Christian NATHAN BLACK Sylvester Stallone opened his sixth and final underdog story, "Rocky Balboa," in theaters last week. Some hope for the series ending, others call it the surprise of the season, and evangelicals are pleasantly surprised. An "unexpected pair: God and 'Rocky' Stallone," the San Francisco Chronicle called it. But the new film, directed and acted by Stallone, intentionally talks about God. "Who wouldda thunk?" Rocky would say. "We need the God-fearing script, the script that really deals with compassion and deals with the word of Jesus and God, and believe me, people will rally behind it because we need it," Stallone said in a late- November conference call to Christian leaders, according to the Chronicle. "It's like, you \watch some of the films, they' only save these kinds of films for Christmas." In the weeks leading up to the nationwide release, Stallone has been in conference calls with religious leaders to promote his new film. Previous Rocky scripts focused on the punches, but this final installment provides more insight to his character, a character that was meantto reflect the nature of Jesus, according to fW10n~a ,. piWay MOE PUJOL Editor and Publisher BRAD GOODYEAR 5Graphics Designer Published weekly by Chipley Newspapers, Inc., 1364 N.

There is a one God with a triune nature, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is true God and true Man, born of a virgin, Who died for man's sins and was raised from the dead, literally and completely, by the power of the Holy Spirit. All men have sinned. fallen short of the glory of God and are in need of salvation. Salvation is by faith alone, provided through Jesus Christ, made available to all men through God's grace. It is the will of God that every born-again believer be filled with the Holy Spirit. The Church consists of all those who have received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Healing is provided through the redemptive work of Christ and is available to every believer. All believers are called upon to witness their faith to the world and to do good works, not as a means of attaining salvation, but as evidence of their salvation and out of love for their Savior.

Blvd. West Chipley, FL 32428 Page 4, Real Power, Wednesday, December 27, 2006 Righteous gossip JANICE PRICE - Many years ago, I attended the same church as an engaging young wife and mother. She was friendly, hospitable and outgoing, but I quickly learned when rumors were moving through the congregation, she was frequently the one supplying the AA batteries to keep them going. One day she telephoned to see what news she could pick up to pass around, and I told her, "Gossip (not her real name, of course), you are going to hear this sooner or later, so you might as well hear it from me so you have the facts straight." Less than ten minutes later, another woman from church called. "Oh,Jan, I'm so sorry. You must be dev- astated. Are you okay?" I was baffled. "I'm sorry. What are you talking. about?" "Gossip called. She told me all about what happened and asked me to pray for you. Is there anything I can do to help?" Aha! I told Gossip something true and too tempting to keep to herself, knowing she would repeat what I told her, but I was stunned at how quickly she was spreading it around and as a prayer request, no less. "What did Gossip tell you? I asked innocently. I was speechless at the story given to her. It was some- what like the parlor game where one person whispers something to the next person, who then whispers it to the next person, and the last person in the group repeats it out loud to everyone, only it does not sound much like the original statement. .Gossip just skipped the person to person jumble and scrambled it herself. I wish I could state she learned something from getting caught red-handed, Rocky Stallone. "He's very, very forgiving," said Stallone in the conference call, "according to the Baptist Press. "There's no bitterness in him. He always turns the other cheek. And it's like his whole life was about service." The synopsis: Former heavyweight champion Rocky is coping with grief over the death of his wife, Adrian. He's retired but after a virtual boxing match declares Rocky Balboa the victor over the current champion Mason "The Line" Dixon, the fighter's passion is reignited. Rocky steps out of retirement and back into the ring against a new rival in a different era. USA Today said the film is "about the quintessential American trait and cinematic tradition of cheering for but unfortunately Gossip continued spreading rumors, even after she eventually wandered away from the church. How many others heard this same "prayer request" and took it to heart? I have noticed over the years that gossip frequently is presented in the same guise, as if calling it a prayer re- quest makes it all right to break a confidence or to reveal details of another's life without permission. There is no such virtue as "righteous gossip" in the Bible. Instead, gossip allowing your tongue to take control of your mind and permitting it to run unbridled with someone else's confidence is revealed as sin. James 1:26 is enlightening. If anyone amongyou thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless. (NKJV) Gossip is not "victimless" and learning to control the tongue is not an overnight victory. It is a lifetime battle. I have lost many a skirmish, as I know you have. -(Re- member, lying is also a sin.) It is imperative you and I struggle onward against it. Paul writes to the Corinthian church, Forlam afraid that when Icome Imay notfindyou as Iwantyou to be, andyou may not find me as you want me to be. Ifear that there might be quarreling, jealousy outbursts of anger factions, slander gossip, arrogance and disorder (2 Corinthians 12:20 NIV) For those who make New Year's resolutions, perhaps this will be the year you add gossip to your list of estab- lished habits you desire to break. 2006Janice Price. Janice writes to encourageyou to think to think about the Bible and how it applies to every aspect of your life.

Balboa has evolved into the ultimate underdog: a lonely guy who has known suffering and is facing his mortality." But the story doesn't stop there. It's about redemption the redemption of not only Rocky but Stallone himself. Stallone was raised in a Catholic home and went to Catholic schools. He made some wrong turns and bad choices when he got out into the "real world," he said in. the conference call, but he's recently been going through a change in his life. "The more I go to church," he said, "and the more I turn myself over to the process of believing in Jesus and listening to His Word and hating Him- guide my hand, I feel as from page 2 though the pressure is off me now." In Rocky terms, Stallone said, "The church is the gym of the soul," alluding to the need to be guided and trained by someone else. Promoting the new film to the faith and values crowd, Stallone even has a website (www.rockyresources. corn) full of resources for teaching, preaching and outreach opportunities. In regards to the box office, "Rocky Balboa" was the top-selling film on Fandango, which sells tickets online for AMC Loews, Regal Entertainment Group and other theaters, a day before its nationwide release. And HollywoodReporter online columnist Martin Grove expects it to be "one of the box-office champions this weekend." All have sinned. Romans 3:23, I John 1:8 There is a penalty for sin. Romans 6:23, John 3:18 You cannot save yourself. Titus 3:5, James 2:10 THE CONDITIONS ARE VERY SIMPLE: Repent. Luke 13:3 Confess. I John 1:9, Romans 10:9 Believe. Acts 16:31 NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOUR DECISION! Joshua 24:15, II Corinthians 6:2 (If you don't know what to say, see the prayer on page 8, or pray something similar in your own words, sincerely and fervently, to God. Then...) Share your new faith: Confess Christ before men. Matthew 10:32-33 Join a church which follows the New Testament. Acts 2:47 Tell others the story. Matthew 28:19-20. Sinner's prayer Dear LordJesus, I know that I am a sinner and need Your forgiveness. I believe that You died for my sins. I want to turn from my sins.

Education To Go of- fers online programs in: computers, photography, An athletic department was added to Washington County Christian School this school year. It in- cludes a basketball team and cheerleading squad for the WCCS Lions. In preparation for this year's activities, the cheer- leaders hit the field in get- ting physically in shape. They are educated in the importance of working hard to achieve the goal that is set before them. "The process of develop- ing an athletic department has been a challenge but, with the help of God, it is now coming to pass," a spokesman said. "We are teaching our children the importance of hard work really does pay off and then we put it into practice. That's when the cheerleaders had their first fund-raiser." The cheerleaders sold donuts to raise money for uniforms. Within three days, they raised more than $900 to go to the cost of uniforms. The girls arrived at school at 6 a.m. to help their cheer- leading coach deliver the fresh-made donuts to all the parents and friends who helped with the event. They were tired, yes, but thankful because it taught them that hard work re- ally does pay off and God's hand is not too short. languages, writing, enter- tainment, grant writing, business, sales, account- ing, test prep, finance, health, child care, parent- ing, art, history, psychol- ogy, literature, statistics, philosophy, engineering, law and nursing.
