BYDAN HILDEBRAN Monitor Editor Bradford County deputies Dec. 13, acting on an alert issued by the Union County Sheriff's office arrested a suspect in two- area bank robberies. The charges against McDon- ald are not proven and he is pre- sumed innocent until adjudicat- ed guilty by a court. Union County investigators obtained an arrest warrant for Brian Shea McDonald, 45, ear- lier that day after identifying him as the man who held up Lake Butler's Community State Bank Dec. 7. Gainesville police believe McDonald also robbed a Capital City Bank branch in Gainesville on Dec. 11. A spokesperson for the Union County Sheriff's Office said tips from the public initially led them in the direction of the man they identified as a suspect in a Lake Butler hofdup. Lt. Lyn Williams said that af- ter identifying McDonald as a person of interest, Union inves- tigators interviewed the man's neighbors and family members, showing them photographs tak- en of the robbery. Investigators used those inter- views to obtain an arrest warrant. Williams added that- after McDonald corimmitted a similar 'robbery in Gainesville Dec. 11, investigators became more con- vinced they had identified their Suspect. "He was already on the run," said Williams of the suspect. According to the Bradford County Sheriff's office, Detec- tive Dave Schlofman was work- ing a DUI detail in the area of Griffis Loop (C.R. 100OA) and S.E. 144th Street around 7:48 p.m. when he spotted a green car with a broken taillight. SSchlofman recalled that a car matching the description of the one he was following had been linked to the Gainesville hold up. He asked dispatchers to run the tag on the vehicle and was, told the car was connected with the Union County warrant. The / detective continued to follow the vehicFe while other units converged on the area. Deputies then stopped the vehicle and took McDonald into custody. . Capt. Carol Starling said Mc- Donald was staying in a home in the same area where Schlofman first spotted the suspect. Williams said a search of that ..,. <.,. Brian Shea McDonald wastaken into custody in Bradford County on an alert issued by the Union County Sheriff's Office. residence, in addition to a search of the car, resulted in investiga- tors obtaining evidence linking McDonald to the robberies.

According to Department of Corrections records, McDonald was convicted of forgery in Leon County in 1998.

Are we to Celebrate Christmas as Christ's Birth? Many people view the Christmas season as a time- to celebrate the birth of Christ. However, is this practice taught in the Bible? Remember there is danger in adding to God's word as is stated'in Proverbs 30:6, "Do not Wdd to His words, lest He rebuke you and you be found a liar." We must.also remember that we are not at liberty to invent our own way of serving God. When Cain attempted to serve Pod in His- own way, God rejected such worship (Genesis 4:3-5). Furthermore, the only way we know how God wants us to serve and remember Him is if He reveals such to us (.1 Corinthians 2:11-13). If we are to celebrate the birth' of Christ on Christmas, where has God instructed us to do so? Since we have no such instruction, it is presumptuous to assume God would have us celebrate the birth of Christ. Danville Church of Christ , 8704 SW SR 121, Lake Butler, FL S 386-496-3880 .

Thursday, 2012 FEATURES CRIME SOCIALS REGILONAL NEWS EDITORIAL NEWS FROM BRADFORD'COUNTY, UNION COUNTY AND THE LAKE REGION Sampson Lake's Jull teaches ancient craft of weaving BY JAMES WILLIAMS Special to the Telegraph-Times- Monitor SSampson Lake resident Judy Jull is a weaver. From her studio, she also sells limited quantities of weaving products, like yarn, weaving equipment such as looms and spinning wheels, bobbins and other supplies. She' teaches the arts of weaving anid spinning, too, and also basket Weaving and clay bead making. If that's not enough to keep ter busy, she's also a member of Altrusa of Starke,,and goes to crafts fairs to show and sell the weaving, knitting and-basket items she makes from her Elza, M. Studios, named after her mother. On a front entranceway and inside her living room are more than 300 spools of yarns in many colors and made of many different materials. She buys many spools of yarns, so she gets good prices on them, which she likes to pass on to students and buyers. - "Bu[ you need to be aware that. this spool of yam, for :example, cost me $1.28," she said taking a spool of colorful thread off a rack. SAmong the weaving items she and her students make with ,all that thread are scarves, rugs, :'dish and tea towels, yardage :or decorative. draperies for clothing, placemats and table run rers, carpets and other useful and decorative items. Hanging on Jull'?living room wall.is a saddle blanket she wove for a friend. When she washed -it to shrink it down before presenting it, the saddle blanket had grown foo small. It now .serves as a nice Southwestern wall hanging. Jull is originally from Maryland's Eastern Shore, where for many.years she taught history, social studies and even agriculture in Cambridge- Hillsborough-area high schools-. For a while, she also worked as an interpreter at Maryland's Blackwater Wildlife Refuge. After her husband's death, she retired and took to the road in their RV. In 1993, she moved to Delray Beach, but later realized' she wasn't as fond of that area as she expected to. be. One day, returning from up north and on the way to Flagler Beach, she decided to park overnight at the KOA camp just south of Starke on U.S. 301 .The camp offers WiFi,which allowed her to snoop around on the Internet for, oh, say, real, estate in the Bradford County area. She found an affordable home Son the waters of Sampson Lake, and a few years ago, moved into one of the properties she-found online. Jull, said she loves the "naturalness of the area" and enjoys her lake view-especially of the birds, "The egrets, the ospreys, the sandhill cranes, there are just so many types of birds here," she said. During a high-water episode two years ago, she looked out her window' to see one small alligator lounging on her dock, while a 10-footer sprawled across the gazebo at the end. "Eer) once in a while he would open his jaws wide, and there was dinner," she said. Jull teaches weaving and basket-makig classes in her home studio. Occasionally, someone drops buy to. purchase one of the items she has made, or which they have commissioned her to make. Between all that and Altrusa activities, she said she stays busy, even though she realizes she is something of an outsider in the area. She occasionally shows and sells her work at craft shows, such as one at the Bradford County Public Library in November.- Weaving is among the earliest activities humans are known to have developed; Sampson Lake resident and weaver Judy Jull stays busy at one of her several looms. She works from Elza M. Studios, ,named after her mother. See JULL, 12B oraedyto w#re ready to HEUO NEW BAR!

Lucille Wade Early of'Brad- ford County quit high school as a teenager, but decided it was time to get her GED, which she accomplished at the age of 66. "I've always wanted to go Backk" Early said, "but I had four children. I put them first. I'm proud to say all four children graduated from high school. I found myself wanting to do the same thing myself." r.Early accomplished her goal through the GED program at the Bradford-Union Area Ca- rer Technical Center. Instructor imda Rudoi said Early certainly @iade an impression on staff and students alike. i "Everyone has been inspired toj see the work ethic that she Rias and the determination that she has," Rudoi said. "She's cer- Cainl] inspired all of us. We love her." Rudoi, herself, inspired Early during their initial meeting. i "The day I came in, Mrs. Ru- doi asked me what I expected of her as a teacher, and what could she expect of me as a student," Early said. "That was really im- portant to me that she asked me that. It made me feel that she was a teacher who could really fielp me. She cared." SEarly, who is a retired certified nursing assistant, said she didn't like school as a childqand admit- ted there -were some unpleas- at experiences that, ultimately caused her to drop out. -Her experience at the career center, though, was enjoyable. Early said maybe it was because now she's older and wiser, and knows how important an educa- tion is. '"I think God puts you wheie you need to be at the time you need to be there," Early said. "'Education wasn't exciting to rue (as a child), but it is now. ?For Early, who enrolled in fte GED program iii October 2011, that excitement came from learning new things, which she would take home with her and share with her family. She admitted she was "like a school kd again." E "With the teachers that I had, they were so good at explaining and helping me," Early said. "I started teaming things that I nev- Ser heard of before. I was really excited about that. Everytime I learned something, I'd go home and tell my kids." Rudoi said it was great to see Early grow daily from a woman who initially was hesitant-as most adults entering the GED program 'are-to one who em- braced learning and never stopped asking questions until she fully understood a concept. "'That's what teaching's all about." Rudoi said. 7 Any teacher would want to' gee a student become a lifelong In the spirit 6f Christmas may hope, joy and peace come again to all nations and to all mankind.

She plans to continue studying .English-the subject she was' most nervous about prior to en- rolling in the GED program- and is not done with attending classes at the career center. "I'm going to take a class in culinary arts," Early said. And if she was ever asked to Devote time to generating pub- licity for the Bradford-Union Area Career Technical Center, she wouldn't hesitate to do so. "If they wanted me to adver- tise for them, I'd be glad to do it," she said. "I feel like educa- tion's very important. There's ho better place than (the career center). This is the place to come to. The teachers are wonderful. The staff is'wonderful. Every- body just seems to be caring and (wanting) you to get the best you can get in education." Early wished to thank both Ru- doi and fellow teacher Monica Clements, whom she described as"'tw'o special teachers." "They worked with me andof- fered encouragement throughout my journey," Early said. Early also said glory should be given to God, for "without Him, I would not have been able to do it." For those adults out there who have been thinking about obtain- ing their GEDs, but have put it off because they are afraid to do so, Early offers encouragement. "If I can do it, you can, too," she said.

Expanded career center program receives donation from Santa Fe BY CLIFF SMELLEY Regional News/Sports Editor Christmas came early for the Bradford-Union Area- Career Technical Center, with its com- puter systems and information technology program receiving 33 computers from Santa Fe College and Jorge Ibanez, the college's director of information technology education. Jeff Ledger, the computer sys- tems and information technolo- gy instructor at the career center, said the computers, which are three years old and have been retrofitted, are a welcome gift. "I'mjust glad that we got them because k get six brand new stu- dents in January," Ledger said. "Then I'll have 18 students in here, which is the most we've had." ' The gift is just another exam- ple of the relationship between the career center and Santa: Fe College. Ledger said the two institutes have an articulation agreement where students who go through the career center pro- gram can then enroll in Santa Fe and start out with credits and a 4.0 GPA. Students who wished to-con- tinue their education at Santa Fe received six credits for pass- ing the career center's computer program with a B or better arid for passing A+ certification test-' ing. ' The computer program has since expanded, which mean's students can now start out with 12 credits at Santa Fe. The diMf ference is that now the career center program incorporates networking and security, both of which have their own certifica- tion tests.

Clint Lockhart Christmas is surely a time of giving, as is evidenced by the giving or Billy Rehberg exchanging of many gifts. When we think about Christmas giving we need @to remember, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have - everlasting life," (John 3:16). God gave that we might believe on His Son : and have a place In Heaven. Jesus paid our sin debt and rose again to show S that His payment was enough. However, if we reject what He gave, we Bill Moody have a place in Hell. Tom Gross Christmas needs to be a time for receiving, for no one can give a gift ^ unless it is received. The Bible says that the Gift of God, His Son, Jesus,, ,<.. *c ."came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as ", "> ,,. received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God. Even ^ M to them that believe on his name; Which were born, not.of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." (John 1:11-13) Christmas is a time of happiness, as evidenced onthe face of many. . Bill Bosier Ge lae Happiness depends on happenings and can be short lived-- to gain real Greg Alvarez B Joy aridPeace this Christmas, why not right now receive thegreatest gift ever given, The Lord Jesus Christ?

This one depicts a Vietnam scene. DORM Continued from 3B One of those people was Classification Officer Linda Clance, who lost her brother to war. Veterans of all types are close to Clance's heart, "ad once the idea of a veterans' dorm was mentioned, she began working hard to help establish it. Because of her efforts, she was asked to,. be the guest speaker at the ceremony Nov. 14. Clance said the dorm has become very important to these inmate veterans. "For these veterans, this represents a sense of pride and accomplishment that will follow them always. Once you step inside this dorm, you can feel their military pride about the place," she said. She compared the vision that 7created-the veterans' dorm to the .Yision that created the Vietnam .Wahll-both started with an idea from one person that was shaped with intense determination ,and hard work. The Vietnam 'Wall has touched the lives of thousands of veterans and their families. Clance said she hopes Gary Payne also painted some of the artwork that decorates the walls. This is another Vietnam scene in- volving a helicopter picking up troops. the: veterans' dorm will also touch lives, even though on a much smaller scale. "The vision to start these veterans' dorms to assist the incarcerated has done a great deal for them and we hope that this, too, will continue to touch others in the future. Their dorm will help to rebuild character and self-esteem." She said that many of the G Dorm veterans served in Vietnam and returned to meet people who. scorned them instead ofhonoring them. "Their pride in service to their country was over shadowed by the events of that era," said Clance, "Finally, they are getting some of the recognition that was denied them in the past." To the inmates, she said, "As I read the list of medals awarded to this group of veterans, I could ,not help ,but think that .you have a right to hold your head up with dignity." She urged them to take their Memories and go into the future. "Do not live in the past, but celebrate your service time. Let this be an experience to move you toward your future in a positive manner," she said. As part of the ceremony, three veteran inmates and one of the G Dorm officers recounted the .core values of the four branches of the American military. Region II's Regional Director Chris Southerland,' Assistant 'Regional Director Duane Spears and all of the supervisory staff of the institution attended the ceremony. Following the ceremony several people stayed to tour the dorm and speak at length with the inmates housed there and the officers who work in the area.

(Results of the Florida Bass Network tournament and the Bradford Bassmasters Club meeting will be reported next week.) . Let us talk about hog hunting Yfor just a minute. During the first three days that Camp Blanding ,was open this hunting season, ,20 feral hogs were checked out. ,These ubiquitous hogs are not 'your typical farm-raised Duroc hogs. While some domestic color can be recognized in a few of the recently released or'escaped feral"' swine, a large number, *s, per William M. Giuliano ,vith IFAS at the University of Florida, will carry a,significant 'degree of genetic resemblance to ,the Eurasian wild boars that are 'native to Northern and Central Europe. While these hybrid hogs retain the ferocity, tusks and fur of their wild relatives, many maintain the size of the domestic hogs. Feral' hogs weighing over 1,000 pounds have been killed in Alabama, Georgia and Florida, giving rise to names like "Hogzilla" -and "Hog Kong." To. this day, it is legal to import wild boars into Floricda Sand Mississippi, as long as they are placed into privately fenced iclubs- that typically advertise and charge for the challenge of i hunting wild boars. The obvious Answer to the genetic mixture of - the wild hogs is that some of the wild cousins escaped or were released. , SLet there rb ubt, these., i wild, hybrid ne t't millions 'of dollars in damage across the United States.

SErnest Grider suits-up Snoopy for his contact sport as Biscuit stands on his back legs waiting his turn. in. Likewise, Florida has a larger feral hog population than any other state other .than.Texas. The old saying is that one, man's trash is another man's treasure, and so it is with hog hunters across Florida. When. regular hunting season stops, hog hunters continue- to hunt year round. This is a privilege that Florida, like many other state, grants in an effort to reduce the population of feral hogs. Additionally, Florida and Georgia allow feral hogs to be taken at night with spotlights. Probably no one in Northeast and North Central Florida is more dedicated to the sport of hog hunting than Ernest Grider, who lives on Griffis Loop in Bradford County. Grider maintains a kennel of approximately 19 dogs. He has several hounds- the others are Cracker, curs- and-he orders 17 50-pound bags of dog food monthly. His dogs are maintained in chain-linked kennels with concrete floors. Grider traps' some of his hogs and takes some with dogs. He carries a transport license that allows him to transport hogs live and sell only to fenced hunting clubs. or. Io managed pens. He,, hunts some (eased, private property, removes nuisance hogs from farming areas and, until the federal government took over the contracting rights, he contracted with state parks to remove nuisance hogs. He frequently uses the modified. and custonr- made hunting buggy shown in the accompanying photograph.

Evidence of weaving goes back to Neolithic times, and it was already an antique art by as early as 1000 B.C., roughly the beginning of the era of the Christian Bible. There are numerous references to the art of weaving sprinkled throughout both testaments. Weaving is generally done on a loom,, with threads loaded into or threaded carefully' through a series of slats, called reeds, This pattern of vertical threads is referred to as the warp. The weaver then passes a shuttle back and forth through the warp to create the horizontal weft. Rows of weft threads are pushed downward tightly or loosely after each passage of the shuttle, a process known as carding. Some qloths are loosely carded producing a loose weaver; some are carded very tightly. Bed linens, for example, are rated by their thread count, with higher numbers considered more luxurious than more loosely woven fabrics. Few of us sleep on actual bed linens any more, but when you visit a nice hotel offering linen sheets with a high thread count, you can't help but feel the difference. Jull weaves with a variety of threads, including wool, cotton, linen, silk, flax, synthetics like rayon and blends of any of them. "I would say that silk is the most difficult to weave because it is more delicate and harder to handle," she said. Jull estimated it might take. as much as two to three days to design, prepare, weave and finish an ordinary scarf of silk, but you might create the same scarf of wool or cotton in only one day. "Designing and finishing an item takes more time than you might imagine, not counting the weaving time," she said. She added that designing the item- sometimes on graph paper before you begin is crucial. However, she often gets a design idea for her next project when she has completed only a few inches of the item she's already working on. During a recent visit, Jull was trying to repair a spinning wheel and couldn't figure out how to get the belt oft the spinning wheel and around a crossbar on the frame. "I don't do much spinning," she said. "I do it, but I'm really more of a weaver." She doesn't do much dying of thread or woven fabrics either. "When you're dying, you really have to know what you're doing," she said. Jull said she doesn't necessarily see more studio activity in December around the holidays. "Most weavers start their seasonal projects earlier, so that by the time the holidays are here, the item is finished." For Jull, Christmas rush may come in September and October. "Busier levels of activity seem to come in waves," she said. Jull said so far as she knew, she was the only weaver in the Bradford area, although she has taught students from Melrose and Hawthorne. "I am a member of weaving guilds in Jacksonville, where it's fairly Sbig, and in Gainesville, too," she said. Jull said most of her students have been women, although once in a while a man takes a class at her studio. Through Biblical times till now, weaving was popularly thought to be women's work. However, men were fairly standard as the weaving process became industrialized in Europe. (Many families named Weaver in the U.S. and Europe had male Sweaters somewhere in their genealogy.) "Some of the best weavers are men, and they also seem to have a way with basket making;"Tull said. She noted that there are several males in the weaving guilds she belongs to. She has been weaving since she was 5, and said that she usually finds the process relaxing, not boring and repetitious. That is especially true when, once in a while, she can turn her head slightly for a quick view of Sampson Lake before returning her focus back to her loom. For more information on Judy Jull and Elza M. Studios, call 904-964-6673' The studio is open to the public on Thursdays, # Friday and Saturdays from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. It will close after Saturday, Dec. 15, for a holiday rest and reopen in January. CAREER Continued from 2B "I think we'll get a lot more people in the program," said Ledger, who also noted the pro- gram has decreased from 1,650 hours to 900 hours. "I personally think we have a lot more.to of- fer." As an example of what adding network and security certifica- tions mean, Ledger said the Uni- versity of Florida is currently looking to hire 10 technicians. The starting salary, he said, for someone with A+ certification only is $15.53 per hour. That increases to $22 for A+ and Net- work+ certification and to $25 if you add certification in security. That would be good news for adult' student Taryn Crews, Who looks forward to getting a good job when she completes the pro- gram. Crews said she enrolled in the program because she wanted to put herself into a position where she had ajob in which she was the "go-to" person rather than being an assistant to some- body else. In working toward that, Crews is working through three or four chapters of her textbook every week. She admitted it's a tough pace to keep up, but said, "If you want something, you can do it." Ledger said Crews is one of the most driven students he's ever had. With that drive, she's well on her way to entering a ca- reer field that is male dominated. Ledger said only 10 percent of those working in information technology are female. On, the first of two A+ certifi- cation tests, Crews had a.score of 885 out of 900. She was sched- uled to take the second A+ test on Thursday, Dec. 20. "There is no doubt in my mind she'll score about 800 (on the second test)," Ledger said. Ledger hopes more females will become interested in 'the program at the career cepter. He. said Santa Fe College, in fact, is Targeting females for its infor- mation technology program. Whether someone interested. in working in information tech- nology goes to Santa Fe, another college or into the workforce, Crews said the computer sys- tems and information technol-; ogy program is a good place to start. "Everything's worked out fine: for me," she said. ' The program -at the career center is open to adults and high' school students. High school students would complete their A+; certification in their sophomore' years. networking certification in their junior years and secu- rity certification in their senior years. "This is like an AP class in a way," Ledger said.
