Ricardo Gill asked Judge Robert Cates to give him the death penalty after pleading guilty to strangling his cellmate at the Reception and Medical Center (RMC) in Lake Butler in 2001. "You will give me a license to kill if you give me another life sentence," said Gill in a Unign County courtroom on July 8. "I am 100 percent sure, this time, it will not be an inmate that is killed." Gill plead guilty to strangling his cell mate just days after being sentenced to life in prison by Judge Stan .Morris. Gill had plead guilty to the beating and stabbing death of Beverly Moore. in 1999. While Gill asked Morris to sentence him to the death penalty, Morris refused citing Gill's history of mental health issues in his decision. His court records indicate he was admitted to a mental health institution in Miami during his childhood. He also spent two years in a juvenile detention facility before he turned 16. He was sent to jail once again at 17 and spent 13 Years behind bars. After being out for just 11 months, Gill killed Moore and attempted to kill a Gilchrist County woman as well. Gloria Ricardo Gill Feliciano was stabbed multiple times with a butcher knife in the back. Gill was sentenced to 30 years in prison in that case earlier this year. Gill had originally been scheduled for a pretrial conference when he informed Cates he wished to change his plea. Cates questioned Gill at length as to his decision. "Do you fully understand the consequences of your decision?" Cates asked Gill. "I do," answered Gill. While Gill had been assigned two- attorneys to represent him, -he chose to represent himself. His standby council attempted. several times to interject on his behalf. Each time, Gill asked the judge that all statements by council be stricken from the record. After the plea, there was some question as to whether or not the sentencing phase of the trial could proceed without a jury. Gill had waived his right to be sentenced by a jury, but his standby council questioned whether that was possible. After a short recess, lead prosecutor Geoffery Fleck presented several cases to Cates where defendants facing the death penalty had waived to right to be sentenced by a jury. Cates then asked Gill. if he was ready to proceed to sentencing. "I'm prepared to proceed today," said Gill. Noting the objections by Gill's standby council, Cates decided See GILL, p. 2A First Community Church hosts singing The First Community Church of Brooker is hosting a gospel sing on Sunday, July 17, beginning at 6 p.m. The church is located next to the new city hall building in Brooker.

City looks to address public nuisances By JAMES REDMOND Times Staff Writer At its July 11 meeting, the city of Lake Butler discussed an ordinance that would rid the city of public nuisances. Purposed ordinance 05-05, defines a nuisance, as.every condition or activity in the city which is offensive or ---prejudicial -to- thehealth or general welfare of the:residents shall be deemed a nuisance. City Manager Richard Tillis said the ordinance is being proposed to help clean up the city. "The city's current code enforcement laws are very vague and give the city no recourse for violators," said Tillis. "This ordinance would provide the city with the -procedures necessary to clean up an area." The ordinance defines many conditions such as sanitary nuisances, rubble and debris and waste. As defined by the ordinance waste includes: o Garbage, rubbish or refuse from residential, commercial or industrial activities. o Paper, wood scraps, cardboard, cloth, glass, rubber adid plastic. - o Discarded vehicles, tires or vehicle parts or fixtures. o Household goods, furniture or appliances. o Toys. O Tools or equipment or any other similar equipment. The ordinance also states that it is the duty of every owner, lessee or occupant of a lot to maintain the premises in such a manner that they shall at all times be clean and sanitary and present a neat and slightly appearance. Itf-ast dec-lares what conditions will be considered a nuisance by the city. The existence of- excessive accumulations or untended growth of weeds, overgrowth of lawn, grass or weeds and stagnated water are just some of the conditions that could be declared public nuisances. The ordinance gives the code enforcement officer full power to investigate and enforce any and all provisions of the ordinance. According to Tillis, he will serve in that capacity. Once a property is determined to be in violation, the owner will be notified and given 15 calender days to bring the property into compliance. If the owner fails to comply, the city will have the right to See CITY, p. 3A Pop Warner signups begin Beginning Saturday, June 25, signups will begin for those interested in Pop Warner football and cheerleading.

This gives all your family and friends a single point of contact: The 2005 Atlantic hurricane season officially began June 1. Hurricane forecasters are predicting that 12 to 15 tropical storms will form in the Atlantic Ocean this season. Of those, seven to nine will became hurricanes. Three to ..five will become major hurricanes. A major hurricane is defined as a hurricane that reaches category three strength or higher. A category three hurricane contains winds in excess of III mph. . With this prediction, York wants those residents who need to evacuate, to have a plan in place. "When we give the order to evacuate, people need .to already know-where they're going," said York. "It is critical that families in mobile homes and other homes with structural issues know where they are going when the order comes." In Union County, the only approved hurricane shelter is Union County High School. Last year the facility served more than 750 evacuees during three different storms. While he hopes the county is not in need of it this season, York said he wants people to know what to bring in case they must use it. "We want people to bring the items necessary to basically camp'out for a couple of days," said York: These items include: o Pillows and blankets. o Sleeping bags. o Toiletry items including tooth- brush, soap and - shampoo. o Games and activities to keep smaller children occupied -- .-.~.r k is, also-asking residents Sti-have plan in place for their pets as well.

The town is getting help from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the town's insurance company to rebuild the center after Hurricane Frances sent a large oak tree through it in September 2004. By JAMES REDMOND Times Staff Writer The town of Worthington Springs is turning lemons into lemonade. In September 2004, the Worthington Springs Community Center was damaged when a large oak tree fell through the building. The tree was toppled when winds from Hurricane Frances battered Worthington as well as other parts of Union County. Since that time the building has been unusable and the town has been working to find a solution to fix the more- than-30-year-old building. S"I.- was -considered by FEMA..(Federal Emergency Management Agency) to be one of the worst damaged structures in the county," said Councilman Jeff Rimes. According to Rimes, after meeting with the city's insurance company and officials from FEMA, damage estimates totalled $25,000. Rimes, a graduate of the University of Florida's School of Construction, knew that would never be enough to complete the repairs to the building. He, and a few other members of the council, who understood construction and its costs, refused ,to accept the offer. "We discussed it during the city council meetings and knew we needed more Dial a Story available to children Young children of Union County are invited to call dial a story.

Rimes met with more than two dozen professionals, including FEMA representatives, structural engineers, architects, building inspectors and insurance adjusters, in hopes that the town could get more money to rebuild. According to Rimes, many residents wanted a quick-fix solution to the problem. "They wanted us to settle early, but anything worth doing is worth doing right," said Rimes. After 10 long months of -paperwork review 'and meetings, the town got a better offer. Between FEMA and the insurance company the town. will receive more than $490,000 dollars to completely rebuild the community center. "It's an experience that I hope I won't have to repeat," said Rimes. "I'm pleased with the report that the new estimate designated us." Rimes said he felt the town's patience really paid off in the end.. "FEMA has been bombarded with more than 2,800 municipalities requesting assistance, with more than 25,000 worksheet requests for review," said Rimes. "Having to deal with all those requests is not something that can be done overnight. I feel our patience with this process has If an airline loses your items make a claim before you leave the airport; some airlines will not honor claims made after you have left the airport.

The old facility served several functions including governmental actions, community gatherings and many social events. A preliminary design shows that the facility will serve that purpose once again. Plans include a town council meeting room, a clerk's office and a large assembly room for events to be held in. Rimes said plans are that once the town receives official documentation from FEMA, the town will begin demolition of the old facility. "Once we receive final signature from FEMA, we will demolish the existing structure and begin building our new facility," said Rimes. "The new center will be a show place for the town of Worthington Springs that will serve many generations to come."

If so, you may have become the victim of a telephone billing practice known as "Cramming." Cram- ming occurs when charges appear on your monthly telephone bill that you did not authorize - anything from unidentifiable fees to club memberships. These charges are not usually tacked onto your bill by your local phone company, but are placed there by a "third party" billing agent. The Florida Public Service Commission (PSC) has worked with some local phone companies that bill on behalf of other companies in an effort to assist them in screening out apparent violators. Additionally, the PSC has developed rules intended to protect consumers from this illegal practice and to reduce cramming by requiring complete and accurate disclosure of services and charges on a consumer's telephone bill. The PSC has required phone companies to: v/ Provide a plain-language explanation of any line item, applicable tax, fee or surcharge to any consumer who contacts the phone company or its customer service agent with a question. / Set forth on the bill all charges, fees and taxes that are due and payable. (/ Provide credit or remove any items from a bill that a customer did not order., SPrg.vide bills that clearly state long distance charges, usage based local charges, the Tele- communicationAccess System Surcharge, the 911 fee and the bill's delinquent date.

It was the earliest occurrence of a Category 4 hurricane in Ithe Caribbean and possibly the *United States, according to meteorologists quoted in. an. Associated Press Story on July 10, Hurricane Dennis was also ihe fourth named storm already ihis season. According to the Make sure generators will suit your needs By CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer Many people in this area found themselves without electricity for days-some for eiven_ weeks-during last year's hurricane season. Therefore, generators haye been hot-selling items as Floridians prepare for this hurricane season.- - "Everybody and their brothers are trying to buy generators," said Brian Johns, Bradford County Emergency Management director. Earlier thNis-year, Floridians were able to purchase generators, along with other useful items, tax free in preparation for this hurricane season. However, generators could cost no more than $750 to qualify for tax-free status. Generators at that cost, however, may not have had the wattage necessary to run the items some people plan on running in their homes. So, how do you figure out what's the best generator for you? Well, for starters, you can visit or call your county's emergency management office. "Bradford County's office has pamphlets, produced by Lbwe's, that give some estimates on how much wattage" is required to run certain household items and appliances. When buying a generator, one must calculate the total wattage of the maximum number of items that will run simultaneously (for items withfi start-up ratings higher than their run ratings, use the start- up rating to calculate you total). .Some estimates include 50 watts for a light bulb, 225 watts for a radio, 500 watts for a 'small refrigerator, 750 watts fOr a microwave, 1,200 watts fbr a refrigerator/freezer (with a'-start-up wattage of 3,000 watts), 3,300 for an air conditioner (20,000 BTU), 4,000 watts for a water heater. 'If someone planned to run a 100-watt light bulb, a 200-watt slow cooker, a 1,200-watt refrigerator with a start-up :I- wattage of 2,900 and a 750- Watt TV, a generator that -produces at least 3,950 watts would be required. 'Johns reminds people they need to have plenty of fuel on Sand to run their generators and he recommends running three- or four-way extension cards into the house to plugv appliances into. .. b e Generators should be kept outside of homes in well- ventilated areas. "'Don't put the generator in, your house because of carbon- monoxide poisoning," Johns said. For more information on generator requirements and safety, please' visit the Bradford County Emergency SManagement' Office *or the emergency management office in your county.

Page 2B TELEGRAPH, TIMES & MONITOR--B-SECTION July 14, 2005 PLAN Continued from p. 1B the necessary precautions after last year's season. Those who previously thought hurricanes were nothing to worry about in -- "this part of the state now realize, after the damage sustained last year, that any part of the state is vulnerable. ..--John-- has witnessed that change in .people's-Ittftudes. He has also witnessed that same change in his own attitude. Johns' family was prepared for Hurricane Dennis, but his family was prepared before Dennis even developed into a storm. "I used to say, 'We're 90 miles from both coasts. A hurricane is not really going to affect us. If we get a tropical storm, we may get a lot of rain.' The wind that I saw at my house last year-it has changed my mind," Johns said. "I keep my 72-hour kit ready." Such a kit is good for people to have, whether they have to evacuate their homes or not, Johns said. Those kits can also come in handy during other emergencies, such as those involving tornadoes or fire, he added. So what is a 72-hour kit? Well, as the name suggests, it is a collection of items to help people get through three days. Such kits should, of course, contain food-enough to provide three meals.per family member per day. Johns said MREs (meals ready to eat), dehydrated foods and canned items, such as tuna, work well in such kits. "Any canned foods you like, but make sure you also pack a (manual) can opener," Johns said, adding that people need to remember to rotate items out of their kits to ensure freshness. It's also a good idea to include some kind of snacks for children, as well as games or something that will help keep children entertained. A battery-powered radio that can be used to keep track of the weather is a must as is a first-aid kit, Johns said. "A first-aid kit-would cover your medications," Johns said. "If you're on any kind of special medications-blood pressure, heart tablets or whatever-make sure you have enough of those to cover you for at least 72 hours." Important documents, such as those relating to insurance, should be included as well as some clothing. "You don't want to get so heavy that you can't tote it out the door, but you want to try to keep one change of clothes (per person)," Johns said. As in any emergency situation, people need to ensure they will have drinking, water. Johns recommends one gallon per person per day. Water purifying tablets, which Johns keeps in his 72-hour kit, also come in handy so ahy source of water can be utilized for drinking. If people are going to leave their homes, there are a couple of things they should consider. Johns said. One is to create a plan with other family members so as to establish a, meeting place or to at least let' others know, where )ou will go in an emergency situation. Another thing to consider is leaving early before the highways become crowded with other evacuees, causing a standstill of traffic. t "If you think you're in a' vulnerable area, make the decision to leave early," Johns ,, "' ,Wat 1A Hwv 21 Free Water Test Keystone Heights OU--IOUUOU JToH Free ~ 1-866-70-WATER - 92837 FHA & VA S,^ W.E SL GE WE,.SYSIES said. Johns cautions those people who get in their cars to be wary of standing water on roads. "Don't drive through water because you don't know what's happened," he said. "The road could be washed out underneath you." Sometimes, in the midst of making preparations for their family, people forget to consider what they are going to do about their pets, Johns said. It is an issue Johns and Bradford County are addressing by working to establish shelters' for animals-small and large. "Some people will not leave their homes if they cannot take their pets with them," Johns said. "We want to have some of those needs taken care of." People evacuating their homes should contact their emergency management center or tune into local media to determine locations of shelters, and what shelters are open. All public schools in Bradford County will be utilized as shelters, including a special- needs shelter at Southside Elementary School. Johns recommends people with special needs have. applications filled out at his office (applications can be completed over the phone). That will help, them' gain access to the shelter more quickly. "If you need to go to ,a special-needs shelter and you already have all the information .(on file),' it: ( streamlines your check-in," Johns said. Though this season has already been unusually busy, Johns said the amount of damage caused by hurricanes this year could possibly be less than that of last year. Downed trees were a problem in this area last year, but Johns said a lot of those trees could have been weak tress, which have now been taken out .of the equation, when- it- comes to looking at potential damage. "Hopefully, that damage (experienced last year) won't be as widespread, thisyear," Johns said., '' Anotheriproblem brought on by hurricanes other than downed trees is flooding due to heavy rains and in Bradford County that usually amounts to. some serious problems for residents on Sampson Lake. Johns said he and his office have been working closely with the people on the lake and have been monitoring the lake's levels every day. However, Johns said that water is now flowing faster into Sampson Lake than it flows out of it. The clean-up of Alligator Creek and new culverts on S.R. 100 have contributed to that, Johns said. That has improved drainage throughout Bradford County and, consequently, increases the flow of rain waler into Sampson Lake. During a recent span of less. than 10 days in which the county experienced heavy rain, the level of Sampson Lake rose from 16.25 feet to 29.5 feet, Florida Twin Theatre SAll Seats $4.00 Before 6 p.m. 964-5451 "OPEN EVERY NIGHT; ) (Vilt us on-line at WWW.FloridaTwinThetre.com) Starts Frl., July 15 Johnny Depp in E Fri. 7:00, 9:10 Sat. 4:45, 7:00, 9:10 Sun. 4:45, 7:00 Mon.

Prior to this weekend, Johns said the gates at Three Pipes were wide open in an attempt to get as much water out of the lake as possible in preparation for Hurricane Dennis. However, he said since water runs into the lake in multiple places and out of it in only one, there's only so much that can be. done if the area experiences enough rain..--. "We have no coniirol over Mother Nature," Johns said. " Whether because of fallen trees, flooding or something else, there are stilJAhiomes in Bradford Counfy' that are damaged -from ,last year's hurricanes.

Stake m J I' The city of Keystone Heights Sowns outright the Keystone Heights Airpark, a gift from the Federal Civil Aeronautics Administration more than 50 years ago. The giving of property to local communities wasn't unusual following World War II, but in this case, the gift of 2,507 acres of land was unusual, since a thousand acres, more or less, lies in Bradford County. None of the acreage is adjacent to the Keystone Heights city limits, although the airpark acreage not lying in Bradford/ County is located in Clay County. Keystone Heights is 'generally considered a Clay County- community, but the Bradford County eastern line abuts the city limits, and the Keystone Heights Golf and Country Club (all or in part) lies in Bradford County. In like manner; Lake Butler was given the old Lake Butler Airfield, consisting of 1,000 acres, in the same era. The city 4ave 500 acres to the Department of Corrections in the early 1960s, ;on which the DOC Reception and Medical -Center was built.; Because, of ,its warm climate, e ,enabling, the -military to train pilots all year, Florida was filled with small airports and, bombing ranges, but, when the war ended in 1945, the properties became surplus to military needs, and Ownership was- transferred to, whomever would accept them tuil lt e. m it stipu actions. Wynn and T. C. Chastain. Arch J. Thomas was clerk of the court. Apparently Clay County had received a similar letter, but it may have been that both counties were offered the facility jointly. At any rate, the minutes dated June 3, 1946, indicate an invitation was extended to Clay County commissioners to meet. with Bradford 'County commissioners to further discuss the issue. Clay commissioners Sam Saunders and Dewey W. Cole met with Bradford County, but no commitments were made,' other than to meet again July 1, 1946. The minutes from that meeting indicate that Clay County commissioners had advised Bradford County commissioners that Clay County wasn't interested in further discussions with Bradford County concerning the airfield and were not interested in becoming a joint grantee for the field. With Clay County having dropped out, Bradford County commissioners met with the Civil Aeronautics Administration representative once again, but declined to become a grantee for the airfield, paving the way for. the facility to be offered to the city of Keystone Heights. n No other records were found in --,ys-tne-.-Heights' was -given ..-the. clerk's-office,- concerning the' the Crystal Lake Airport by airpark, but the property default.. The; military had named appraiser's office lists several the facility: Crystal Lake Airport properties in the airpark as being when it ,was built because of its on the Bradford tax rolls, and proximity to the lake, but the, paying about $13,000 in ad name was changed to Keystone valorem taxes, each year.

However, in a letter matters of the facility.

The Bradford County Board of Authority Member Dean County Commissioners was told Weaver spoke to the Starke the grantee would have to agree.'

L. but thev will accmmodat most Y will accommodater-most privately owned planes and commuter planes. Helicopters utilize the airpark on a regular basis. Weaver is optimistic concerning the long- range use of the facility, but without income from timber growth, the airpark would be in serious financial trouble. A couple of years ago, the authority sold $80,000 worth of timber. In the years 1997-2001, expenditures exceeded income by approximately $200,000. As" Florida's population continues to grow-it's projected to reach 17 million in a couple of years -.north Florida's population will increase, and the Keystone Airpai'k will become a vital link. in. air transportation, and Keystone Heights will have, a jewel in hand. However, the first 50 years of ownership has ,provided little more than bragging rights for 'the community. Were the Bradford County commissioners smart in turning down ownership ,. of the airpark? Hindsight is better than foresight, and 50 years ago timber land in north Florida was' cheap, and timber was also cheap. Turpentine operators and small sawmill operators' often got the land along with turpentine rights and/or sawtimber. While times had improved substantially since the 1930s, land could still be .acqifiried by tax -cgificates..qn occasion. The future of the small airfield in a remote section of the. state, without a large population center, wasn't especially bright. Those complaining about lost opportunities may not have the advantage of first-hand experience during that period of history. 'C In normal times, the Florida Department of Transportation would be planning to four-lane S.R. 100. but with the demand for roads in South' Florida and bottlenecks throughout the state, S.R. 100 improvements have a low priority. Highway transportation in and out of the airpark is a detriment and will affect its growth until remedied. State Road 21 has an even lower priority for adding lanes. Keystone Heights has nursed the airpark for mpre than 50 years, and will have to continue operating it on a shoestring for a time, but if they stay the course the gift will someday live up to its potential as an asset to the community and surrounding area.

Many thank yous go out to the groups that took many hours and money to put together floats and all the wonderful entries in the parade. The reason so many people come oat and line the streets is because of the entries willing to come out and give of, themselves to allow children and adults to enjoy what they have put together. Thank you also to all the people who brought items to send to the troops overseas. All items will be sent to the soldiers in the next week. We will be collecting items for troops again during the Labor Day-Festival. Keep those items coming for our troops.- To sum it all up, you truly. get what you put into your community.

Veterans Memorial Pathway. and Garden Project Keystone Heights Setting the record 'strait on T.H.E. n a Apartments Dear Editor: The article in the June 30 edition of the Bradford. Telegraph offended many of the people .who reside at T.H.E Apartments. Much of the information shared in the article did not accurately reflect the positive town meeting that was held and the dialogue that. was shared among the attendees. The Town Meeting's focus was on what could be done to stop the violent behavior that has been occurring among our youth. I want to clear the air and set the record straight. No one at the meeting said or implied that all the people of T.H.E. Apartments were uneducated or that they didn't read or share. information with their children. There was no bicyclist making pranks at me or anyone else. There was, however, a bicyclist who was selling drugs and there was an adult male standing by who said nothing to stop him. What was stated is the fact that the image of T.H.E. Apartments needed to change, so that the community could have a more positive and favorable impression of T.H.E. Apartments and its residents. People need to stop referring to T.H.E. Apartments as the "projects." These are subsidized apartments where people within a certain income are allowed to live. There are many good people living in T.H.E. Apartments who do have hope of owning their own homes. T.H.E. Apartments: Does it stand for "The Hopeless End" or "The Hope Endures"? I rather think the latter, because hope does endure. I believe the majority of the people in T.H.E. Apartments have hope. If the owner of T.H.E. Apartments truly wants to make a difference, then invest where he has been offered $ scholarship for college. I kno^. an elderly lad, who li es in nth ' apartments and she is one o the kindest and most gentle souls you would ever want to' encounter. She has hope, faitit and trust in God. I know o1#'R another young lad) wh. powers her wheelchair ti church every Sunday and attends Bible study o' a Wednesday nights. I know, ot. some youngg children who are'. doing exceptionally well in' school, making the honor roll "" and are terrific kids. There are many young', mothers out there who loe:,; their children and just want the;i, best for them and they aret _ looking for a way out. These. are the many faces that you se ' in T H.E. Apartments. They- are the majority. The fact that they are single parents is not unique to T.HYE' Apartments, residents; this is & condition of our society as as whole. Being a single mother, is not synonymous with being a bad parent, when some of the' best parenting has come from single moms. grandmothers-''] and aunts. There are still those few. people who try to bring the exhibiting bad arid disrespectfuF I' behavior, behaving loudly and obnoxiously, selling drugs i.; front of the apartments,";. disrespecting other residents-,. and the children who observeQ their behavior. There are somg adults who see this behavior I and say nothing. These. numbers are few and the vasD majority of'the persons causing-,.., the problems do not live or.: belong in T.H.E. Apartments. I challenge the owner and managers of T.H.E.--, Apartments to do something about the beha\ ior of these few bad apples, so that they don't ! continue to tarnish the image of the ,good people' who liveX there. .isO I challenge each minister and "o each church in our communitylisH to step out from the walls ofoaiA the church and fulfill the.i,' commission that God hasIl given. Go out -and teach the ..-*, word to all people. The people' :, i who need to hear are not in theM church they're out there on thedog street corners, hanging out ai,'32 T.HE. Apartments:,hahging,' out on Old Lawtey Road, .'.[, hanging out on Pine Street and' S your streets. They are everywhere throughout our. community. They are no0 i hiding; they are out there inOI clear view, waiting for ani., , encounter. Won't you go outi,-,, and share a word of care? Act in, a way that would stir the hearts- of the people who need oui dT help, the most. Truly, if the"'iid' churches -would take a stand, this would go a long way in';; bringing about a positive ,., change in our community. l4,.rL we say we care, then we have,,mm to take some positive action.

Akombo did -keep. it simple, however, restricting himself to just one of ihose more-than- 1,400 languages--Swahili. For example,- children learned that "jambo" is Swahili for "hello." The children, and adults, in attendance proved to be good students as they learned to sing a song in Swahili. It may have been exposure, to. a foreign language, but most did. recognize the ;words "hakuna matata," from having watched "The Lion King." : Akombo also passed out musical instruments so, the children could play along as they sang.

The Livingstons reside in Union County-their home of approximately 23 years.) By GAIL D. LIVINGSTON Special to the Times "Most patients with this type cancer live only two to three months after diagnosis." That was the shocking prognosis related by the surgeon following a biopsy of Robert's gall bladder. My emotions quickly, went from shock, to disbelief, to total -denial in the matter of the few minutes it-took-to-listen- to the surgeon. "This couldn't be possible," I thought. "It was April 22 and Robert had only been sick for a little more than a week. We had two kids to raise. No way could this be true." Unfortunately, we were 'to . .further learn that Robert had a rare cancer which had grown from a malignant tumor in his gall bladder and .spread into the bile ducts of his liver. The Wtpe-of 'anicer is known as Robert Livingston works in a patch of corn on his 'property. primary Aden carcinoma. Since symptoms of liver cancer often do not appear until the disease is advanced, only a small number of liver cancers are found in the early, stages and can be removed with surgery. -_. Our- course of action to battle this cancer was very limited. Radiation was totally out of the question. Some chemotherapy treatments had shown to be successful in shrinking the cancer for a. period of a few months and/or preventing the, cancer from progressing for a similar period of time. Robert started chemo treatments in early May. However, the only real hope that has been offered to give Robert an extended lifetime is a surgical procedure to remove a large portion of his liver. In order to undergo this surgical procedure, which is scheduled for Aug. 5, he first had to have what is called a portal vein embolization. This procedure is done to cause the atrophy or shrinking of a part of the liver and the hypertrophy or extra growth of the remaining liver. The day prior to the embolizatio~n procedure, Robert had to undergo another surgical procedure to have a stent placed within his liver to drain the bile, which left a drain to the outside of his upper abdomen. - For a man who had never been hospitalized in the 30 years we have been together, he has, since April, become quite familiar with the hospital routine and he doesn't care for it at all. However, he has managed to keep his sense of humor throughout all the surgeries that he has had to endure so far.' During the last two surgeries, they were unable to put Robert totally under the' anesthesia, so he was conscious most of the time. - "I remember being in-a lot of pain %when they put the tube ,Exploring -beyond Classrooms' walls- Starke family visits Peru as part of inaugural collegiate program By CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer Instead of sitting at a desk in college, surrounded by four walls, imagine taking your studies outdoors and experiencing views at more than 12,000 feet above sea level. That was the opportunity 18 cl4tge' students had recently as the) participated in the Classrooms without Walls program, which Starke resident Enrique Barquinero, a Spanish professor at Florida Community College at Jacksonville, helped develop. The students traveled to Cusco, Peru for a four-week stay (May 15-June 11), where they attended classes at Universidad Nacional de San Antonio Abad del Cusco and took field trips to various sites. Barquinero saw the trip as a great opportunity for his- students. '"There's nothing better than to be able to experience a . .. language on site. where it's actually spoken," Barquinero said. The Classrooms without Walls program was not just ..geared toward Spanish students. It was for students who were also.taking biology of environmental systems.

The program is course, Barquinero said. not limited to FCCJ students. -. . "Perhaps we'll get to have a group from Bradford County experience what we did (this year)," he said. Some Bradford County natives did go on this past trip. Barquinero's wife, Shannon (the former Shannon Wolf), accompanied him as did their son, Miguel, and Shannon's daughter, Morgan Hersey. It was their first trip outside.of the U.S. and Barquinero said they will probably go on next year's trip, too. *Barquinero is a Peruvian, though the trip was a new experience for him, as well., , "I -had never been, to Cusco before," said Barquinero, .a natiVe"' of' -Lima 'Wlh'6 immigrated to the United States 24 years ago with his family when he was 14. In Cusco, which is 12,000 feet above sea level, the Classrooms without Walls students attended classes in a somewhat different environment than they're used See PERU, p. 5C in," Robert said. "I heard the surgeon ask the anesthesiologist if he could give me any more, with (the anesthesiologist) replying, 'No, I'm afraid he is going to quit breathing.' They finished the surgery and then I went to sleep." The surgeon, following the procedure, explained that it went successfully and that he would be showing a video of the. embolization surgery during a medical convention to be held in California in the near future. Robert was disappointed that he was not invited to go along on the trip and tell his side of the story. STAKE 1371 S. Walnut St., Suite 200 The Aug. 5 surgery will be much more aggressive than the other procedures Robert has had to endure. It is called a surgical resection, which is only available to 10-20 percent of patients with liver cancer. However, the survival rate following the surgery is only 25 percent for two years. But, two years is a lot longer than the two months we were told in April. "This has totally changed my life dramatically," Robert said. "I have learned to live one day. at a time.

In that sense, May is like any other college student S attciding classes during a summer term, yet she is like no other college student because she just recently completed sixth grade. May is one of approximately 60 teenagers attending the "College for Kids" program in Starke, which is offered through Santa Fe Community College. The program, which began Monday, runs through Friday, July 22. It is open to students who are preparing to enter the sixth-10th grades. This is the third year the program has been offered in Starke and the second year May has participated. "I was expecting it to be a lot of fun (last year) and it was," May said. "This year, I think it's going to be a lot more fun." The program allows kids to gain an insight into college life, from choosing classes and trying to put a schedule together to attending classes on the SFCC campus in Starke. Classes are offered at both the Andrews Center and the SFCC Cultural Building, as well as at the Starke Woman's Club. Linda Sheffield, who is the coordinator for College for Kids in Starke, said one of the main goals of the program is to allow kids to broaden their knowledge, while at the same time having fun. "More importantly, I think, it's a way to meet people they wouldn't normally see," Sheffield said. "We have students, for example, who, on the first day, sit by themselves. Then I'll hear a student say, 'Why don't you come and sit with us?'" The chance to meet new people was something May looked forward to on the first day of her first year of How does that feel?

BHS softball players do earn Sun recognition Five Bradford softball players should have been included among the Gainesville Sun's Class 3A-6A all-area picks, which were released earlier this month. The original list of players included no one from. Bradford, but in a July 8 column, the Sun's John Patton wrote that the following players were inadvertently left off the list: graduates Roxann Jackson (shortstop), Ashley- Lee (center field), Amanda Reed (first base) and Cassie Sparks (second base/pitcher). and senior-to-be Kasey Barrett (pitcher). Jackson, who received a scholarship to play for Indian River Community College, baited .346 last season with 11 RBI, 26 runs scored and 20 stolen bases. Lee had a .351 average, driving in eight runs, scoring 25 runs and stealing 17 bases. Reed, who will join her older sister Melanie at the University of West Florida, led the team with a .416 average. She had 34 RBI, 27 runs scored and 11 stolen bases. Reed set a new school record with six home runs. -Sparks, a Central Florida Community College signee, batted .300 and had 10 RBI and 10 runs scored. Injuries limited her work on the mound, where she compiled a 4-3 record with a 2.11 ERA. Barrett, as a junior, became Bradford's primary pitcher last year, compiling an 11-10 record with 235 strikeouts. She also had a .311 average as a batter. Words may show a man's wit but actions his meaning. -Benjamin- Franklin participation. "I was a little bit nervous (on my first day)," May said, "but at the same time I was really excited. There are all kinds of different kids here you can meet and you can make new friends." Shaye Anderson, a first-year participant, agreed that meeting new people is part of the fun. Another part of the fun is the variety of classes offered. Anderson was especially looking forward to one class in particular-Babysitting Survival. "When I get older, I want to babysit and it's going to help me be a better babysitter," Anderson said. First-year participant Dezmon Lane said he, too, thought many of the classes sounded interesting. He was looking forward to taking the Cool Jewelry and Sports/Fitness classes. Of course, Lane also had a good source of information on College for Kids that helped him make up his mind to participate. "Mrs. Sheffield was my English teacher. She got me into it," Lane said. Students were able to create a six-class schedule-or three- class schedule for those Shaye Anderson decorates her folder in her sign language class.

Some of those include Sign Language, Fitness/Sports and Cool Jewelry. "We have some new teachers and I'm glad to see that",'Sheffield said. "If you have a different variety every year, then kids' are; going to come back." One of those new teachers this year is actually Sheffield, who is teaching German. On the first day of classes, she had her students greeting each other in German, addressing each other as either "Herr" or "Fraulein." Sheffield, who lived three years in Germany, does not want to limit her students to just learning a few basic German words. "I'm giving them not just the language, but a little bit of the culture," Sheffield said. "I just think it's good to experience new cultures." No matter what the students get out of the College for Kids experience, many of them have benefited from the support of various people and businesses in Bradford County. Twenty- two students were able to attend free of charge on scholarships provided for by those individuals and businesses, . Also, Shawn Jenkins, the owner of S&J Fitness Center, is allowing the Sports/Fitness students to use his center on Thursday. -Then, of course, there are those community members who teach the classes. "I don't think people appreciate how much this community stands behind education and .programs for our children," Sheffield said. Students enrolled in the full- day program attend classes from 8:10 a.m. until 4:25 p.m. Each class is 70 minutes long and there is a 35-minute break for lunch. The program is also offered to students in half-day (morning or afternoon) sessions. The program concludes with "Parent Night" on Friday, July 22, at 5:30 p.m. at the SFCC Cultural Building. It is there where students show some of the things they hav, rnmed. Parents and oth in attendance can viewv table presentations as well as enjoy stage presentations. Sheffield said anyone interested in learning more about College for Kids is invited to the conclusion of the program. That way, parents may be able to decide if College for Kids is something they would like their children to participate in.

The boat is made from weeds that grow in above sea level. As a visitor to another culture, you would expect to find different types of food. Here is a picture of a Peruvian dish the Classrooms without Walls participants came across-a sheep's head soup. PERU Continued from p. 2C to.

For example, the students would visit Cusco markets and see meat hanging up outside int the heat. "We are very sheltered in the United States," Barquinero said. "Everything is refrigerated. What happens is when you go to *another .country and you have meat just hanging out, you're like, 'Oh my gosh, that meat needs a freezer!' (The students) were shocked by that." Most of the sights the students took in during their trip left a more- favorable impression. For example, they, had the opportunity to witness Corpus Christi, a Catholic celebration that began in 1247. The celebration consists of a colorful parade comprised of the effigies of the saints and virgins from Cusco's churches. Students visited the remains of the Incan city Machu Picchu, which remained hidden for more than 300 years until its discovery in 1911. "It's just such an incredible sight," Barquinero said. "It's kind of hard to walk away from it." , Students also visited the Manu Biosphere Reserve and Lake Titicaca, where students stayed in the homes of families who live on the lake's floating islands. '"That was a unique and amazing experience," Barquinero said. "These people are very rural and they, don't get the chance to interact with many people from the. United States." Everyone seemed to enjoy the trip to Peru, but Barquinero said he wants to make next year's trip even better. Next year, he's aiming for a five- week trip in June and July instead of in May and June, so the students can experience more. There were a couple of celebrations students missed on' this ,past trip that Barquinero would like future students to experience. He *would also like to give them more time to spend in the. Amazon Region. "We've done it once and we've made mistakes," Barquinero said. "Now we know how to do it better."

Deer-dog registration program goes statewide Recently the Florida Fish and Wildlife .Conservation Commission (FWC) voted to ..expand statewide a registration program for deer-dog hunting on private lands for the 2005- 06 hunting season. The decision was based on the overall success of a pilot program adopted last hunting season in the Northwest Region in lieu of more restrictive measures. i According to a report presented by Lt. Col. Mike !Wiwi, deputy director of the Division of Law Enforcement, 'the additional time and costs .associated with administering .this program across the state !will be minimal and manageable for current FWC staff and budget. Wiwi said 70 individual properties, representing 55 :deer 'dog hunt clubs. fpa I ff if' the "pilit -program. Those properties ranged from 40 to 31,000 acres and were situated in 14 of the 16 counties within the Northwest Region. SWith the pilot program in place, complaints dropped 27 'percent, compared to the ,average of the previous four hunting seasons. More importanti, only five :complaints were associated ,with registered, deer-dog hunting clubs. In comparison, ,a review of last season's complaint data for- the North Central and Northeast regions, :where registration was not :required. showed an increase in "deer-dog hunting complaints !from the average of the previous four hunting seasons. At the conclusion of the 2004-05 hunting season, the FWC conducted a survey of all 'participants of. the : pilot program to determine levels of satisfaction associated with i registration requirements and to, 'identify any concerns with the program or process. Almost -half the participants responded, and all said the process of S .completing the application, S registering and complying with S the new requirements was easy Sor veryeasy. Nearly 90 percent. I said they experienced no :problems with affixing their assigned identification numbers ; to their dogs' collars, and almost 70 percent thought the new registration was a valuable stool for helping manage deer- S dog hunting onprivate lands. During May, the FWC conducted six public meetings Across the state to make certain hunters and other interested Groups: were fully aware of the S proposal for statewide i registration, am had the opportunity to ask questions to better understand the specifics of the proposal, and could provide comments. These meetings helped clarify some common misunderstandings about the proposal and fostered broader support from hunters and other stakeholders, Wiwi said. This new statewide registration program will require no-cost registration for anyone using dogs to,hunt or pursue deer on private lands in Florida during the deer-dog training season and during any open deer-hunting season when taking deer with dogs is permitted.

We have been blessed." -All our lives have changed drastically in the past several rhonths,"not only for Robert and me, but for our two _.children,- Tab' and Peyton, who turned 7 the week of Robert's diagnosis. Robert will never be-able to work again as an electrician-a- profession he worked in for more than 35 years. Our finances have definitely suffered as we soon found out that he would not be eligible for disability payments until after six months of not working. Li-ckily, Robert had been able to put up some money for retirement over the years, which has helped to keep us afloat. The community, however, has been very generous to us. Employees with the school board office and the school system, where I went to work Jq- last July, held fund raiser-at - I the end of May, presenting us with a check for $2,500. Another generous anonymous contribution of $1,000 was presented to us in early May | and the local antique car and motorcyc-le-show raised $600 during the Fourth of July celebration. We are eternally grateful to everyone in the community for all their love pW and prayers shown to us and F for-being there for us in our - time of need.
