The ordinance, which was up for second read- ing and final approval at the City Council's Oct. 22 meeting, spells out numerous require- ments relating to the interior and exterior of commercially zoned historic district build- ings. Among the re- quirements are prohi- bitions against mold, rust or chipping paint on a building's exterior, while the ordinance also stipulated that all sid- Part 4 Amend or Not Amend? By BRUCE COLLIER This is the firal in- stallment in a series on the 11 active proposed state constitutional amendments that will go before voters on Nov. 6. Twelve were origi- nally listed, but one has been removed. To pass, an amendment must re- ceive 60 percent or more votes of approval. This article will cover pro- posed amendments 11 and 12. The full texts of all of the proposed amendments (includ- ing the removed one) can be accessed online in full text and down- loadable format via the Walton County Supervi- sor of Elections Office or the Florida Division of Elections. The eleventh pro- posed amendment is called "Additional Homestead Exemption; Low Income Seniors." This amendment, if passed, would permit the Legislature to enact general law authoriz- ing counties and mu- nicipalities to grant an additional homestead exemption (over and above those already in place) equa' to the amount of the assessed value of homestead property provided that See AMEND 8-A ing and masonry joints of a historic-district building be weather- tight and resistant to rodents or other pests. Several local busi- ness owners came forward to speak out against the ordinance's adoption. Dennis Ray, the longtime owner and operator of downtown fixture The Little Big Store, was especially critical of the ordinance, which he said could put an "undue restraint" on business owners due to the costs associated with the sweeping up- dates called for in the ordinance. Further- more, Ray said the still- struggling national and local economy had the potential to suffer if the ordinance was passed in that it might discourage new businesses from opening in the historic district. "This ordinance, as it is written, is so tight and so hard to meet that I think we would discourage even some of the vacant from being purchased or turned into business because it's almost impossible to Se COUNCIL 15-A WCSB meets in special session, attendance numbers updated By ALiCIA LEONARD In a follow-up to an earlier report, regis- tered home school stu- dent numbers as well as voucher numbers for students coming into and going out of the county to attend school are in. Registered home school students in Wal- ton County as of Oct. 16 account for 276 students in Walton County. Out- tgoing vouchers for other counties account for 410 students living in but not attending schools in Walton County. Incom- ing vouchers account for 65 students attend- ing school in Walton but living outside the county. The Walton County School Board (WCSB) met in a special session Oct. 22 at 2:30 p.m. to discuss federal grant applications, personnel recommendations and handle a total of nine expulsion requests. Board Chairman Dennis Wallace was absent from the special session and Vice Chair Faye Leddon led the meeting. Walton County School Superinten- dent Carlene Ander- son brought before the board a request to ap- ply for federal grant funding tied into the federal Race To'The Top funds that could amount to between $20 - 30 million in fund- ing for special training and special classes for future students. Board member Mark Davis questioned some crite- ria of the grants such as evaluation standards. Anderson responded that it was still early in the process and the cri- teria would be set forth by the federal body that oversaw the grants as well as the particulars of how they were ad- ministered. The board approved the grant ap- plication request unani- mously. The board then ap- proved personnel rec- ommendations unani- mously. Next, the board approved a re- quest 4-0 for the Wal- ton Career Develop- ment Center to be able to process debit and credit card payments in person at the center. A representative told the board they had worked diligently over many months researching tVh safest and lowest ost method of implem nt- ing the payment s s- tem. The board then moved on to student expulsions with much conversation over a few of the nine expulsion requests before them. Davis and board mem- ber Sharon Roberts were the most vocal in the discussion, espe- cially over two separate cases. One of the cases involved a long-term ex- pulsion of a student that had been expelled twice previously and was un- der a behavior contract.

Walton County Eco- nomic Development Al- liance (WCEDA) Man- aging Director Scarlett Phaneuf, who spear- headed the effort to re- cruit Dollar General, said in her report to the Town Council on Oct. 16 that the discount re- tailer's upper manage- ment decided against going forward with plans to open a store location in Paxton. She said that call was ulti- mately made because a Dollar General market analysis showed that Paxton does not have the population and de- mographic figures to support a store location, especially with a store already right across the state line in neigh- boring Florala, Ala. Phaneuf said that last consideration was like- ly what staved off the pending deal between the city, Teramore De- velopment, LLC. and Dollar General. "I think the primary concern was that [Dol- lar General] worried about taking business from their store in Flo- rala," Phaneuf said. "There are only so many shoppers to go around." Phaneuf and City Attorney Lori Bytell submitted the prospec- tive agreement between the three parties a few months back and had heard no word from Dollar General, which still had to approve the site development plan supplied by Teramore, until the week before the Council's October meeting. Included in the agreement, which was finalized in May, were several incentives, not least of which was an impact fee waiver and a steeply discounted sale of the acreage needed to build the proposed store location. Though Dollar General might be out of the question, Bytell told the Council that strong incentives were still the best way to attract new businesses to locate in Paxton, and one such incentive is not yet on the books, but it will be on the Nov. 6 ballot. The Walton County Board of County Com- missioner approved the inclusion of a referen- dum that, if supported by the voters, would give the board the pow- er to abate ad valorem taxes for new and ex- panding businesses. According to a release from the WCEDA, the BCC had this authority for 20 years until the original resolution ex- pired in 2010, though no more than three busi- nesses received such an exemption during that time. The ad valorem waiver is aimed at help- ing businesses creating at least 10 new full-time jobs with salaries above the local average or in a targeted industry such as manufacturing. Bytell also suggested that the city consider reopening the Walton County Visitors Center as a way of letting pass- ers-by become more fa- miliar with Paxton and Walton County in gen- eral. The Council members commended Phaneuf, Bytell and city staff for their hard work in recruiting Dollar Gen- eral, even if the deal fell through.

Anothercase involved three students that had been expelled for 10 days for taking a sip of beer on a school bus that another student had brought. Roberts questioned Anderson's recommendation that the three be allowed back with "time served." Roberts remarked that many students with the same issue had faced harsher punishments. The board approved Anderson's request 3-1, with Roberts being the nay vote. All other ex- pulsion requests were approved unanimously.

AN OPEN LETTER OF APOLOGY To OUR COMMUNITY We the undersigned clergy come before you to make the following confession... Scripture bears witness that Jesus prayed for unity. The Bible says that He died in order to purchase it. Somehow along the way, we have lost sight of that simple, yet amazing and powerful principle of unity within the Body of Christ. By making it about our "church" instead of His, we have knowingly and unknowingly promoted division instead of Christ honoring unity that Jesus Himself Jrays for in John 17. To encourage division and compete with one another is sinful and harms the witness of Christ in our community and the surrounding area. And, for doing so, we humbly apologize. Where we have missed the mark of promoting Christ exalting unity in our community, we ask for your forgiveness. We desire to walk together .., pray together... and work together for the cause of Christ and for the advancement of God's Kingdom in Walton County. We acknowledge our responsibility to be watchmen in our community and to strive to model Christ-like love toward each other. We affirm that our only hope and the basis of our unity is the truth that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that only by His death on the Cross and His glorious resurrection is there genuine unity. We recognize that God has called us to live out our faith in spite of some denominational, ethnic, and racial differences. However, we affirm that God intended for those differences to give fullness to the Body of Christ, not to separate, divide, and weaken it. We invite all believers in Christ to join us for a time of a solemn assembly of prayer for our churches, communities, and country on Sunday, November 4 at 6p.m. at First Baptist Church.

He asks when did our leaders become so polarized that they refuse compromise for the good of the country over their own party's agenda. I know I hammer on the Internet a lot, and if ever there were a love-hate relationship in my life, there it is. The recent presidential and vice presi- dential debates and the reaction to them provide a possible answer. Right now we have the most unprecedented amount of raw information at our fingertips that we have ever had in the history of humanity. Access to the Internet is so easy that there's virtually no bar to it. We can monitor, si- multaneously, a dozen or more stories worldwide, in real time. Political candidates and elected of- ficials can track their approval rating literally second by second. Unfortunately, that's just what they do when they should be doing their jobs. Information, sound bites, fragments of fact and all the rest of the debris that floats over the Inter- net stream needs as much analysis, criticism and reflection as any other natural phenomenon. Just ask Chicken Little and his pals, not exactly role models for meteorologists. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of the gov- ernors knowing that the governed are keeping an eye on them. The ideal effect should be prudence and responsibility. The real world effect is more likely to be paralysis, indecisiveness, impulsive- ness and backside covering. If you've been read- ing the latest "analysis" of the debates, you know that the foreign policy debate between Obama and Romney has been criticized for all but ignoring ev- erything in the world but the Middle East. China, Latin America, Mexico and Europe are reportedly wondering where they stand. On the other hand, considering the debate was on a time limit, exactly how in-depth could either candidate have been? Would a few carefully chosen buzz words and slo- gans have sufficed? Sadly, yes. It seems that candidates are already disturb- ingly skillful at using the Internet and social net- works to advance their campaigns. What's not so impressive is elected officials' ability to think and do their jobs without an online IV-drip. The task is to serve, not surf, the public interest. Enough mir- ror time. Editor: It is fitting, as the, election approaches, that recently we commemorated the 150th anniversary of Antietam, the bloodiest battle in our history. We are thus reminded that there actually was a time in this country's history that we were even more divided than we we are today The polariza- tion of Republicans and Democrats is at the root of what is crippling our society. Since Newt Ging- rich's, (cursed be his name), "Contract With Amer- ica" in 1994, the aisle down the middle of congress has grown increasingly wider. It.is important to be aware that since that time an entire new genera- tion of voters has come into being. They've never known this country as anything but a house di- vided. I come from a time when actual statesmen prowled the Senate and the House. Certainly not all of them were great, and none were without sin. They, too, were a bunch of old men and women who sent young people off to die. But they usually talked to each other before they did it. On one side of the aisle sat Everett Dirk- sen, R-Ill. On the other side sat Sam Ervin, D-N.C. They were both leonine figures at the head of their respective parties. Both were orators that brought tears to the eyes and chuckles to the lips. They were political opponents and as such, they brought eloquence to their opposing points of view. They were probably no less corrupt than the people we have today. But, and it is a big BUT, when it came time for the common good, they sat down and ham- mered through the legislation that was necessary. Some of you remember those, what have become halcyon, days. For the younger among you, it must come as a strange concept. But, it actually worked when Republicans and Democrats talked to each other rather than producing sound bites for the media. To paraphrase Grantland Rice, we were told that the Four Horsemen of the Apoca- lypse are War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death; to- day they are Behner, Pelosi, McConnell, and Reid. I leave you with a question: "When did com- promise become a perjorative?" Frank Rosenbaum DeFuniak Springs Editor: Last month, I had an opportunity to partici- pate in yet another extension service workshop conducted by Mike Goodchild and Mindy Hittle- McNair. As usual, they did a remarkable job pro- viding comprehensive class materials, comfortable meeting space and knowledgable, well-spoken presenters. This latest course was oriented to beef cattle management and, as a novice in the field, I was exposed to a wealth of information. After five evening seminars and one follow-up session, I felt much better prepared to deal with the complex tasks of an apprentice cowman. Mike and his staff are always willing to answer questions or share their practical experience. Judg- ing by the large attendance, I'm sure that most of the folks, if not all, who use the services of the extension share my impression. From a taxpayer point-of-view, I get my money's worth and then some. Bill Vorwald Cowpuncher & Master Tree Farmer The RaeBil Ranch DeFuniak Springs THE DeFUNIAK SPRINGS HERALD BREEZE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2012 ,.. . " 1 .y- - Inspired By The Political Season... Binders of Women Unemployed Big Bird 9' marksfunkyart@yahoo.com www.marksfunkyart.com Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the unappreciated people who built America for an average wage, average benefits, and no guarantee of success. I want to thank the farmers who pro- duce the groceries that feed America, the men and women who built our roads, those who construct our homes and buildings, all railroad workers and those who built the railroad, those who built the Panama Canal and the Intra-coastal Waterway, fishermen, loggers, etc. All these people and many others work at dangerous jobs, put their lives on the line every day, and work in all kinds of weath- er. I am reminded that these are people who freely chose their path in life, are just trying to make a living, and want nothing more than to pursue suc- cess and happiness for themselves and their fami- lies. I was reminded by the Labor Department that one of the most dangerous professions in Ameri- ca today is farming. You might of thought that it would be police or firefighters, but last year 260 farmers died on the job while half that number of Obamacare (Pre-existing Condition) police were killed on the job. Transportation jobs were the most dangerous with 683 truckers killed on the job in 2011. Fishermen, loggers, roofers and electricians made the top 10 list as well. The point is simply this, "We did build that, Mr. President." The United States of America is the great nation it is today because people from every walk of life invest and have invested tboir sweat, labor, and lives into, not only doing their own jobs, but contributing to everything we have become as a people. One thing is certain, the government (local to federal) including the Environmental Protection Agency is not responsible for our success. The best argument for limited government is the un- necessary governmental intrusion that often com- plicates and pre-.: ~nts everyday citizens from per- sonally working, risking and succeeding (and, yes, often failing). This is the human spirit that has built America, one nation under the God of Heaven who has blessed our efforts. Kirby W. Rushing DeFuniak Springs LETE O HEEITOR Editor: Mift Romney, Paul Ryan, Jeff Miller, Connie Mack and most Republicans signed Grover Nor- quest's pledge on never raising taxes. Now some may think that's not such a big deal and others may actually like the idea. I happen to think it is a very big deal. Grover Norquest is the millionaire leader of the Tea Party movement and controls their super Pac. He is from Massachusetts and has little interest in Florida politics. But, if a Republican wants Tea Party support and Norquest's donations, they bet- ter sign his pledge. I am reminded of the German Reichstag of the 1930s. They were obligated to vote the way Hit- ler wanted or suffer the consequences. Of course, I'm not comparing Norquest to Hitler but, to me, the principle is the same. There is no room for the signers of the pledge to compromise or change their mind. Their vote is predetermined. We might as well send a robot to Washington or Tallahas- see. I guess I'm old fashioned, but I always believed that our elected officials were supposed to repre- sent us, their constituents, and not some rich guy from up north. Frankly, I wouldn't care if a can- didate was a Republican or Democrat but if they were coerced into signing a pledgelto support any- one but us, I would not vote for them. Fortunately, we have a clear choice in November. We can vote for the Democratic candidates who have pledged their support to all of the American people, not just some special interest group. Or we can vote for the Grover Norquest puppets. Robert Hirsch Miramar Beach LETE OSHEEITOR Editor: Here are five important topics for all of us to consider in the upcoming presidential election: 1. Do we want to elect a man as our president who disavows and dismisses students, retirees, veterans, the poor and disabled because they may receive some form of help from the federal gov- ernment? Most of those people have earned their benefits, or are eligible to receive them under laws passed by Congress. Why ridicule and reject hon- est, honorable people you don't even know simply because they get something from the government that they are entitled to receive? What about all the millionaires, billionaires and large corpora- tions that pay little or no income tax? Aren't they receiving financial assistance from the federal gov- ernment through the use of tax loopholes, tax cred- its and creative accounting? The big oil companies get four billion dollars a year in federal subsidies while at the same time making billions in profit at the gas pumps. Doesn't that also qualify as federal financial assistance? 2. Do we want to elect a man as our president who will reduce your social security and medicare benefits each month for the rest of your life? Put another way, do you want to have your benefits cut so that millionaires and billionaires can pay lower taxes? 3. Do we want to elect a man as our president who will not disclose his tax returns? What about transparency and full disclosure? Why not disclose them? What is he hiding? What does he not want us to know? 4. Do we want to elect a man as our president who is so out of touch with the middle class that he believes we earn an average of $250,000 per year, when it's actually more like $30,000 40,000 per year? Do we want a man as our president who makes millions of dollars each year but ciily pays an effective tax rate that is less than mE ny work- ing class families? 5. Do we want a man as our president who stashes away millions of dollars in off-shore bank accounts in the Caribbean and in secret bank ac- counts in Switzerland? How do we know all taxes have been paid that are due? What is wrong with American banks? Why ship your money overseas? If he professes to want to create more jobs, wouldn't keeping his money in a bank in the USA help im- prove our economy? No matter what your party affiliation may be, please remember that once you are in the voting booth it is a secret ballot. No one will know how you voted. Please consider carefully how your vote will affect not only your future, but the future of millions of other ordinary citizens like us. David Holder DeFuniak Springs LETTERiTO:THEiEIT6R Editor: Obamacare and Prohibition (of marijuana, al- cohol, etc) are both state law issues. Nowhere in the U.S. Constitution is there authority over any health care or Prohibition of alcohol or any other plant product within state boundaries. The need for the Eighteenth and Twenty-first Amendments proved that fact. The clause of the month used to justify totalitarian control by the U.S. Supremes is the Supremacy Clause. If the Supremacy Clause is true as hastily interpreted by some law profes- sors, then we have no real need for state consti- tutions, state reps or senators or Governors. But that is obviously not the case on thousands of state issues. After all, the Ninth and Tenth Amend- ments have not been repealed. The weakness of the Supremacy Clause is in the three words, "in pursuance thereof." Obamacare and federal drug laws are two of many federal laws that are NOT in pursuance thereof the U.S. Constitution. The U.S. Constitution is very limited, as Walter Williams would say, to the 21 items delegated in Article 1, Section 8. It is Governor Scott's and the Florida Legislature's and the people's duty to keep the federal government within the bounds of those 21 items. Jefferson, a man both Democrats and Re- publicans admire, said, "Whensoever the general government assumes undelegated powers....a nul- lification of the act is the rightful remedy." Thus is Amendment One on the ballot. Vote Yes to support Jefferson and the U.S. Constitution, or vote NO to support Judicial Tyranny. Randy Henning Mossy Head HE DEFUNIAK SPRINGS HERALDIBREEZE, INC.

"Team up with us for savings and rebates." - Gulf Power Energy Coach 0 L C j AMEND (1) the property has a just value of less than $250,000; (2) the owner has maintained perma- nent residence on the property for not less than 25 years; (3) the owner is 65 years old or older; and (4) the house- hold income is "low" as defined by general law. Passageofthe amend- ment does not automat- ically create this ex- emption; it authorizes the Legislature to allow local governments, who must themselves then grant the exemption by a super-majority vote. The conditions of the exemption (including what constitutes low household income) are to be set by the Legisla- ture's general law. If passed, this cou'Pd give eligible seni ,r homestead owners 'ill exemption from p lp- erty taxes. Propor nts say that the ai j;nd- ment will give a ureak to elderly r dents with fixed ince iis, al- lowing them ,r' mon- ey for medic I hills and permit their to stay in their home-. Oppone:its argue that pror.'rty taxes are already diminished, and the resulting bud- get shortfall would further endanger local funding for schools and necessary services. An estimate made of the ef- fect of the amendment, assuming every city and county in Florida were to approve the full exemption, would be a loss of $18.5 million over the first two years it was offered. The proposed amend- ment reportedly met with unanimous sup- port in both houses of the Legislature. If passed, it would go into effect Jan. 8, 2013. The twelfth proposed amendment is called "Appointment .of Stu-, dent Body president to Board of Governors of the State University System." Currently, Florida's state univer- sity system is overseen by a Board of Gover- nors, with 17 mem- bers. One of that 17 is chairman of the Florida Student Association (FSA). If passed, this amendment would re- place that person on the board with the chair- man of a council of state university student body presidents of the 12 state universities. That council currently does not exist, but would be created and organized by the Board of Gover- nors. The FSA is a non- profit research and advocacy organization that charges dues to its members. Since its founding in 1976, sev- eral universities have chosen not to pay dues and participate in FSA. This made it impossible for their representa- tives to have served as student representative to the Board of Gover- nors. Proponents of the amendment say that it gives every university a chance to have their student body president serve as a represen- tative to the Board of Governors. Opponents argue that it is not nec- essary. This measure reportedly received unanimous approval in the Florida House and "near unanimous" ap- proval in the Senate. If approved by the voters, it would go into effect Jan.8, 2013. Remember to vote Nov. 6! THIS TIME I WANT SOMETHING HARDWORKING 0'oEH O W mmmar -ww m M CA ..

THE DeFUNIAK SPRINGS HERALD BREEZE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25,2012 Rotary Club of DFS gives to Planting Peace The Rotary Club of DeFuniak Springs, Florida recently donat- ed $1,000 to Planting Peace, an organization whose goal is to de- worm one million peo- ple every month. Over two billion children are In the final presi- dential debate, Gov- ernor Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama were declared at a dead-even tie in the polls-47 percent each. Demographically, Obama leads by almost 40 points with minor- ity voters, particularly Hispanics, and Rom- ney leads by almost 40 points with white male voters, ultimately leav- ing the final straw to the young, female vote. Before Monday night's final face-off. most news. channels were replaying famous debate lines that re spectively won or los the election. From (Get ald FrVd's declaratio'i in 1ii7( that "There i- n() Soviet domination it0 Eastern Europe," which arguably lost him the elec1 ion to Jimmy Carter. to Ronald Rea- gan's humorous, "I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent's youth and Sinexperience"-a line which political analysts say decided the election in his favor. More recently was the political gaffe that lost John McCain the election by allowing his opponeiit, Barack Obama, -to exploit that he was out of touch with the American economy. McCain declared after the 2008 stock market crash, that "the funda- mentals of oir economy are strong." McCain could not escape the backlash ofthe coir ment under his opponent's scrutiny. Yet Obaiia, in a bizarre twist of dejA vu and denial, declared on Monday night that America is. stronger now than it was four years ago when he took offio'. (Throughout this umpaign, it has been argued that Romney is c'Lt of touch with every- day Americans because of his wealth and aloof demeanor, but did the tables just turn? Who looks as out of touch now as McCain did in 2008?) Certainly, give cred- it where credit is due: infected with intestinal worms worldwide. If not treated, children can suffer from anemia, poor physical growth. poor intellectual devel- opment and impaired cognitive function. Only one and a half Osama 'iin Laden was annihb ited. We pulled out < Iraq. A great num of manufactur- ing is in Detroit were sav i. All of these are str qiths to America's (a i its president's) ci lit. But is America r 11ly stronger? The number of house- dilds receiving food -lamps has increased i- 1 5 million in the past four years. The nation- :1 deficit, about which \like Mullen the chair- man of the Joint Chiefs f' Staff stated, "[is] the ingle, biggest threat to our national security..." has increased by $6 trillion, and 23 million Americans are uin'm- ployed. For a presi lent running on the prei iise of strengthening he middle class, the statis- iics do not support his declaration that Amer- ica is stronger today than it was four years ago. The man who won four ears ago on the tides k i change is now looking ,America in the face and saying we're "doing fine"- forcing out blind, political rhet- oric, and sadly, I don't think even he believes it. gr O. cents can de-wornm a child and with over two billion people infected. there are no shortages of countries to de-worm. The goal of Planting Peace will be to contin- ue to send de-worming medication into areas ravished by famine and high hunger rates. They have de-wormed over 1..9 million in Haiti, two million in Guatemala, one million in Ghana, Sudan, and Dominican, .and over 500,000 in North Korea. In Haiti and Guatemala the goal is to treat every child. To find more about this organization visit their website at www. 'lanting'peace.org.

Unfor- tunately, this scenario comes true for dozens of Walton County chil- dren per year through circumstances well be- yond their control. With this in mind the Chautauqua Quil- ters Guild (CQ(.) has initiated a Hug-A-Bear program to bring some small comfort to these children. The program consists of assembling small stuffed bears which are donated to local organizations to be given to children in distress. On Monday morning, Oct. 22. two of those organizations came to the Walton County extension ser- vice building to receive their bears. "Anything we can do to help a child in need is a positive thing. These bears give the chil- dren something to hold close," said CQG Com- munity Project Leader Eleanor Frick. "When I was a nurse at the sher- iffs office many officers told me this kind of item provided a calming ef- fect upon children. The guild became involved when we realized there was a need." So far the guild has assembled approxi- mately 60 of the bears intended for the De- Funiak Springs Po- lice Department, the Families First network and the Children's Ad- vocacy Center. They have approximately 30 members working on the project which .will continue as long as there is a need. Each bear requires about two DEFUNIAK SPRINGS POLICE DEPARTMENT Communications Supervisor Debbie Gillman (1) and Families First Network Counselor Ashley Thacker (second from right) pick up their Hug-A-Bears from Chautauqua Qiilters Guild representatives.

"These bears con- sole the children when things are not looking so good," said DeFuniak Springs Police Depart- ment Communication Supervisor Debbie Gillman. "It provides a sense of security and gives them something to hold on to. On behalf of the department and Chief Weeks we would like to thank the guild from the bottom of our hearts. In the end the children are our main concern." COPE 2-1-1 system providing assistance now Lookingfor help with food, housing, em- ployment, health care, or some other type of support?

COPE Center was recently granted certi- fication by the Florida Alliance of Information and Referral Services (FLAIRS) for the right to run a 2-1-1 system for this area. The FLAIRS certification added Wal- ton County to the 2-1-1 statewide central link- age point for the provi- sion of quality health and human service in- formation through most cell phone providers or all landlines. COPE Center has also part- nered with the Walton County Health Depart- ment through the Wal- ton County Health Im- provement Partnership (WCHIP).

Emily Grace Wilson, a 9-year old fourth-grader from Mossy Head School, participated for her first time in a Hog Show at the recent Walton County Fair. When she made the decision to raise her pig, Mack, to show in this event, she decided all money he raised would be donat- ed to the Cystic Fibro- sis Foundation. Mack was a Hampshire/Bab- cock mix and weighed in at 267 pounds, plac- ing him at the top of the Heavyweight class. During the fair there were three events in which Emily competed. On Tuesday night Em- ily Grace won first place in Junior Showmanship competition. This high- ly competitive class was judged on the youth's ability to maintain eye contact with the judge while maneuvering their pig around the show ring. Emily was able to keep Mack mov- ing and her eyes never left the juage's face. Af- ter the Showmanship competition, the youth returned to the ring to show their pig with all of the others in their weight class. Mack and Emily tried really hard, but Mack only placed 10th in this competi- tion. The true magic took place on Thursday night at the hog sale. Once the auctioneer, Henry Alford, and the coordi- nator of the event Odon Russell, heard the funds from the sale were go- ing to be donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foun- dation, they decided to do things a little differ- ently. When Emily and Mack entered the show ring, Alford announced that the proceeds would be donated to Cystic Fibrosis and to stick around for a unique sale of a pig. Russell was happy to show Em- ily and her family how the community would step up and help this charity. The decision had been made to hold a donation auction prior to selling Mack. This do- nation auction started with Alford setting the bar and laying down his bid and then boldly call- ing out his boss, Walton County Sheriff Mike Freeport Library offers free Medicare counseling The Florida Depart- ment of Elder Affairs' SHINE program (Serv- ing Health Insurance Needs of Elders), in partnership with The Northwest Florida Area Agency on Aging, Inc. offers free Medicare counseling and infor- mational materials to adults approaching age 65 and beyond at the Freeport Public Li- brary. A trained SHINE counselor will be avail- able from noon to 4 p.m. on Oct. 31, Nov. 14, and Dec. 5 to assist individuals in choosing a supplemental policy, select a prescription drug plan, or explain how to receive financial help with Medicare. pre- miums and prescription drugs.

He then let 'er rip with that rhythmic sound of the auctioneer song and in a flash it was done. In just minutes more than $1,600 was raised for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in honor of Emily Grace and her pig Mack. Once the do- nation auction finished, Mack was auctioned ,off and bought by Triangle Chevrolet bringing the grand total to just over $2,000. The youth participat- ing in the hog show and sale event put a tremen- dous amount of work into raising a show hog. Many acquire their pigs at five weeks of age; working and tending to them daily for six months until the time of the fair. The skills gained through raising a pig from such a young age are important to the development of respon- sibility, dedication and even some math. The youth learn how to cal- culate the amount and type of food their pig should be fed in order to reach their ideal weight by the October show. Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a life shortening, genetic disorder that affects 30,000 Ameri- cans, 18,000 of which are children: There is currently no cure. It's also what makes Em- ily Grace special. Like most kids who have CF, Emily Grace undergoes hours of daily respira- tory therapy, handfuls of pills, and consumes twice the normal calorie intake of most children her age.

''' THE DeFUNIAK SPRINGS HERALD BREEZE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25,2012 Continuing a tradition: Walton County Hog Show and Sale Dedication, tradition and hard work are three reasons for continued success of the Walton County Hog Show and Sale hosted through the Walton County Fair. Odon Russell and Bob Laird began this event 33 years ago to pro- vide an opportunity for young people of Walton County to learn about responsibility, hard work and record keep- ing. Russell stated, "Al- though it doesn't seem this was the 33th year of this event, time just keeps flying by." This show could not continue if it were not for the tremendous out- pouring of commitment to this event's success. The members of the Walton County Fair As- sociation Board allow it to continue and consis- tently provide help with setup and other needs for the show and sale. There are many in the community who volun- teer their time as well. "One of the most mean- ingful things to me is to see so many of the young people and their parents who return after they have gradu- ated to help the show or sale," said Russell, who gave a special thanks to those people who have helped almost ev- ery year. Henry Alford, who found his talent for auctioneering through FFA, has served as the auctioneer for 32 years. Another thank you goes to Dale Anderson and Jim Wasson who have served for many years as ringmasters help- ing the auctioneer get the highest bid for the youth's hog. Cornell Peacock serves as the judge for the Hog Show and the multiple divi- sions of Showmanship. Tuesday night is an exciting night for the youth because they get to show their hog. If they choose, the youth have the opportunity to compete in a Showman- ship competition. The youth are judged by their knowledge of their hog, their eye contact with the judge and their ability to maneuver the hog around the ring. The Senior Showman- ship winners were: 1st Savannah Claire Mor- gan, 2nd William An- derson and 3rd Nathan Hobbs. The Intermedi- ate Showmanship win- ners were: 1st Connor Williams, 2nd Kaleb Newborn and 3rd Kris Williamson. The treat of the night was when the Junior Showman- ship competition began. These 8 and 9-year-olds had their eyes on the judge like "white on rice." Peacock commented, "It was just remarkable to watch them display their pigs. I have never seen young people so attentive and focused. I was totally amazed and suggested the older exhibitors to watch this group and learn a lot about showing pigs." The Junior Showman- ship winners were: 1st Emily Wilson, 2nd Em- ily Morgan and 3rd Jar- ed Bartlett. Also on Tuesday night, the youth and their hog had the oppor- tunity to win prizes for how their hog appeared to the judge. Peacock looked for a strong, muscular pig, but also ones that did not have a lot of extra weight. He often stressed to the youth the importance of a proper balanced diet when raising hogs for this type of competi- tion. This year, it was a rare occurrence with the Grand and Reserve Champion being shown by the same youth. Nine-year old Jared Bartlett's hogs captured first place in the Heavy and the Light class. Winners of the Heavy Class were: 1st Jared Bartlett, 2nd Evan Jack- son, 3rd Kris William- son, 4th Paxton FFA shown by Grace Hester, 5th Nathan Hobbs, 6th Savannah Claire Mor- gan, 7th Morgan Stew- art, 8th James Adams, 9th James Adams and 10th Emily Wilson. The other one making up this class was Connor Williams. Winners of the Light Class were: 1st Jared Bartlett, 2nd Chris Hammonds, 3rd Morgan Stewart, 4th Nathan Hobbs, 5th Ka- leb Newborn, 6th Emily Morgan, 7th Joe Perez, 8th William Anderson, 9th Chris Hammonds, 10th Connor Williams. The other three in this class were: Clay Led- don, Kris Williamson and Joe Perez. With HAPPY HALLOWEEN ON BALDWIN AVE. WED., OCT. 31 FROM 6-8 P.M.

The final result of a successful show and sale took place on Thursday night when the hogs were sold. The sale is a success because of the wonderful support from local businesses and in- dividuals who attend to support the youth and purchase their hogs. The Grand Champi- on and Reserve Cham- pion, shown by 9-year old Jared Bartlett, sold for $2.75 and $2.475 per pound, respectively. Mr. and Mrs. Troy Birchfield of Cherry Hill Farms were the buyers of the Grand Champion and Joe Johnson of A-1 Mini Storage was the buyer of the Reserve Cham- pion. Again, much ap- preciation goes to all of the buyers of this year's show pigs. A very enjoyable pork barbecue meal was provided to the prospec- tive buyers, the exhibi- tors, their parents and other special guests before Thursday's sale. The pork was smoked by Leron Geoghagan of Paxton, a former ex- hibitor. Other foods for the meal were prepared and served by parents and supporters. "This meal is a chance for us to thank those involved with the show and sale, especially the buyers. It is a great time for the buyers to get to know the young people. We appreciate everyone's support to have allowed this tradi- tion to continue for the last nine years," said Russell. There are many more people who a huge debt of gratitude is owed for their continued support. Sharon Rigby continues to be photographer for the show and sale even though her boys have "outgrown" the program and have families of their own. Various spon- sors from the surround- ing communities con- tribute to the students' hog project as "add-on" money for them to earn.

"Now we have all I he information on hand to be able to move on to the next opportunity and to find some hing that will work and be a good fit for this community."

Upon arrival, authorities found the door to the residence wide open. A neighbor went inside and con- tained two large dogs while law enforcement entered the home and found a woman, later identified as Lisa Cope- land, 37, unresponsive. Her 13-year-old son was also found in the resi- dence. They attempted to wake Copeland up but with no response. Copeland's son told the deputy on scene that his mother was drunk. Law enforcement called for an ambulance to come to the house to check on Copeland. A Il. 1i1 v was able to get Juvenile receives prison sentence for attacking school resource deputy Copeland to respond to him but she was mum- bling and reaching for a bottle of alcohol close by. EMTs arrived on scene and assessed Copeland's condition. She was then turned over to the deputy for arrest. While being handcuffed, Copeland snatched away and at- tempted to run. The deputy caught Cope- land and quickly placed her into the patrol car. The Department of Children and Fami- lies was contacted and Copeland's son was turned over to another family member. Copeland was charged with child ne- glect without great bodily harm and re- sisting an officer with- out violence. She was transported and booked into the Walton County Department of Correc- tions. Isaac Xavier McDon- ald, 17, the student who was charged with aggravated battery on a law enforcement offi- cer, was sentenced last week in a Walton Coun- ty courtroom by Judge Kelvin Wells. Wells sentenced McDonald to 7 1/2 years in a state prison, to be followed by 7 1/2 years of probation. He was also ordered to pay restitution and court fees that totaled close to $38,000. Mc- Donald pled no contest in August to his charge. McDonald was ar- rested earlier in the year after he hit the school resource deputy several times in the head and the face with his closed fist. He then disarmed the deputy of his ASP baton and attempted to take his sidearm. The deputy had been trying to keep peace on cam- pus at Walton Academy after several students began to get involved in an altercation.

It also would amend Article XII, Section 27, and add Sections 32 and 33, relating to the Schedule for the amendments. (2) In certain circumstances, the law requires the assessed value of homestead and specified nonhomestead property to increase when the just value of the property decreases. Therefore, this amendment provides that the Legislature may, by general law, provide that the assessment of homestead and specified nonhomestead property may not increase if the just value of that property is less than the just value of the property on the preceding January 1, subject to any adjustment in the assessed value due to changes, additions, reductions, or improvements to such property which are assessed as provided for by general law. This amendment takes effect upon approval by the voters. If approved at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, it shall operate retroactively to January 1, 2012, or, if approved at the 2012 general election, shall take effect January 1, 2013. (3) This amendment reduces from 10 percent to 5 percent the limitation on annual changes in assessments of nonhomestead real property. This amendment takes effect upon approval of the voters. If approved at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, it shall operate retroactively to January 1, 2012, or, if approved at the 2012 general election, takes effect January 1, 2013. (4) This amendment also authorizes general law to provide, subject to conditions specified in such law, an additional homestead exemption to every person who establishes the right to receive the homestead exemption provided in the Florida Constitution within 1 year after purchasing the homestead property and who has not owned property in the previous 3 calendar years to which the Florida homestead exemption applied. The additional homestead exemption shall apply to all levies except school district levies. The additional exemption is an amount equal t( 50 percent of the homestead property's just value on January 1 of the year the homestead is established. The additional homestead exemption may not e,,ceed an amount equal to the median just value of all homestead pro within the county where prpertyatissuesJacatedothecalendaLyBarimmediatelypreceding-January 1 of the year the homestead is established. The additional exemption shall apply for the shorter of 5 years or the year of sale of the property. The amount of the additional exemption shall be reduced in each subsequent year by an amount equal to 20 percent of the amount of the additional exemption received in the year the homestead was established or by an amount equal to the difference between the just value of the property and the assessed value of the property determined under Article VII, Section 4(d), whichever is greater. Not more than one such exemption shall be allowed per homestead property at one time. The additional exemption applies to property purchased on or after January 1, 2011, if approved by the voters at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, or to property purchased on or after January 1, 2012, if approved by the voters at the 2012 general election. The additional exemption is not available in the sixth and subsequent years after it is first received. The amendment shall take effect upon approval by the voters. If approved at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, it shall operate retroactively to January 1, 2012, or, if approved at the 2012 general election, takes effect January 1, 2013. (5) This amendment also delays until 2023, the repeal, currently scheduled to take effect in 2019, of constitutional amendments adopted in 2008 which limit annual assessment increases for specified nonhomestead real property. This amendment delays until 2022 the submission of an amendment proposing the abrogation of such repeal to the voters. S YES ODNO NO. 5 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE V, SECTIONS 2, 11, AND 12 State Courts Proposing a revision of Article V of the State Constitution relating to the judiciary. The State Constitution authorizes the Supreme Court to adopt rules for the practice and procedure in all courts. The constitution further provides that a rule of court may be repealed by a general law enacted by a two-thirds vote of the membership of each house of the Legislature. This proposed constitutional revision eliminates the requirement that a general law repealing a court rule pass by a two-thirds vote of each house, thereby providing that the Legislature may repeal a rule of court by a general law approved by a majority vote of each house of the Legislature that expresses the policy behind the repeal. The court could readopt the rule in conformity with the public policy expressed by the Legislature, but if the Legislature determines that a rule has been readopted and repeals the readopted rule, this proposed revision prohibits the court from further readopting the repealed rule without the Legislature's prior approval. Under current law, rules of the judicial nominating commissions and the Judicial Qualifications Commission may be repealed by general law enacted by a majority vote of the membership of each house of the Legislature. Under this proposed revision, a vote to repeal those rules is changed to repeal by general law enacted by a majority vote of the legislators present. Under current law, the Governor appoints a justice of the Supreme Court from a list of nominees provided by a judicial nominating commission, and appointments by the Governor are not subject to confirmation. This revision requires Senate confirmation of a justice of the Supreme Court before the appointee can take office. If the Senate votes not to confirm the appointment, the judicial nominating commission must reconvene and may not renominate any person whose prior appointment to fill the same vacancy was not confirmed by the Senate. For the purpose of confirmation, the Senate may meet at any time. If the Senate fails to vote on the appointment of a justice within 90 days, the justice will be deemed confirmed and will take office. The Judicial Qualifications Commission is an independent commission created by the State Constitution to investigate and prosecute before the Florida Supreme Court alleged misconduct by a justice or judge. Currently under the constitution, commission proceedings are confidential until formal charges are filed by the investigative panel of the commission. Once formal charges are filed, the formal charges and all further proceedings of the commission are public. Currently, the constitution authorizes the House of Representatives to impeach a justice or judge. Further, the Speaker of the House of Representatives may request, and the Judicial Qualifications Commission must make available, all information in the commission's possession for use in deciding whether to impeach a justice or judge. This proposed revision requires the commission to make all of its files available to the Speaker of the House of Representatives but provides that such files would remain confidential during any investigation by the House of Representatives and until such information is used in the pursuit of an impeachment of a justice or judge. This revision also removes the power of the Govemor to request files of the Judicial Qualifications Commission to conform to a prior constitutional change. This revision also makes technical and clarifying additions and deletions relating to the selection of chief judges of a circuit and relating to the Judicial Qualifications Commission, and makes other nonsubstantive conforming and technical changes in the judicial article of the constitution.

Tom Hutchens, the owner of Hotel De- Funiak, said the busi- ness owners downtown want their buildings to look good in order to attract customers and to preserve the historic beauty of the city, but they sometimes don't have the money to make all the changes even they would like to. He suggested the Coun- cil consider putting .together a volunteer committee to assess the historic commercial properties in question and to identify those that need improvement for safety's sake or for beautification. "Rather than making an ordinance, let's work as partners," he said. "Let it be resolved that the city council and the city will join hands with the local businesses in the historic district as partners, per se, to en- courage the preserva- tion and beautification of the historic district. Let's not get at odds where you draw a line in the sands and say 'Businesses, if you don't do this you're going to get fined or penalized.' Let's work together on this one." Ray, Hutchens and others petitioned the Council to hold off on a vote, a sentiment the board members shared to a man. Councilman Ron Kelley suggested that the other members read and review the or- dinance before bringing recommendations for- ward at a future Coun- cil meeting. The Coun- cil also requested that City Attorney Clayton Adkinson review the or- dinance, which he said will likely need to be redesigned to take into account more specifics regarding what will and won't be considered "up to code." Discussion about that ordinance was only one of several major items on the agenda at the Council meeting, with much attention given to how the city should commemorate Veter- ans Day. The holiday is, according to custom, commemorated exactly at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, which usually doesn't create a problem when it comes to the city's public observance at Magnolia Cemetery. However, since Vet- erans Day falls on a Sunday this year, the Council originally pro- posed to hold this year's program around 1 p.m. so as not to conflict with most local church ser- vices. That proposal did not go over well with a large contingent of for- mer military men and women who came out in support of the tra- ditional 11 a.m. time. After hearing the over- whelming support from veterans for the usual start time, the motion was made to set obser- vances for 11 a.m. on Nov. 11. While the mo- tion passed when put to the vote, Councilmen Mac Work and Kermit Wright, a decorated Vietnam War veteran, opposed. "I will never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever... put country before God," he said. Several items re- garding new construc- tion projects at the municipal airport were all presented by City Manager Sara Bowers and all met with unani- mous approval from the councilmen. First, the Council approved sending a draft of the master plan report to the Florida Department of Transportation and then Federal Aviation Administration, then the board members au- thorized Mayor Harold Carpenter to execute and adopt resolutions for the purchase of a refueling trailer and construction of t-han- gar buildings. FDOT will incur 80 percent, or $268,000, of the total .cost of the construction project, with the city's local 20 percent match coming in at $60,000. The Council also vot- ed 5-0 to move forward on the sale of 30.54 acres of right-of-way along U.S. 331 to FDOT for a total amount of $586,650. FDOT agreed to purchase the land in order to have the city's utilities pipes removed from the right-of-way as part of the project to four-lane U.S. 331 south of DeFuniak Springs. The purchase should go through in May 2013, and with construction to begin the following year, though the city will have to bear the expense of relocating its utilities lines, the expense of which will be partly covered by this sale. Councilman Mac Work got approval from the Council to have the city attorney begin drawing up an A DeFuniak Springs motorist was critically injured in a single ve- hicle accident that oc- curred on Woodyard Road Oct. 22, at 1:22 a.m. The Florida High- way Patrol (FHP) re- port stated that Justin T.

The FHP report stat- ed that Poston was not using a seatbelt, and that an investigation is pending into whether alcohol had been a fac- tor. Charges are listed as pending.

Motorist killed on 1-10 A Port St. Joe mo- torist was killed in an accident on Interstate 10, 1.5 miles west of U.S. 331. The fatality occurred on Oct. 18 at 12:14 p.m. The Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) report stated that John T. Aguras, 86, of Port St. Joe was traveling east on I-10 in the left n. A second vehicle, it-i driver and sole oc- upant Orion K. Mc- Daniel, 55, of Panama City, was traveling east in the right lane. For an "unknown reason," Aguras' vehicle drifted into the right lane and struck McDaniel's ve- hide. Aguras traveled onto the south shoulder of the roadway, rotating and striking first one, then another tree. A Walton County EMS responder pro- nounced Aguras dead on the scene. McDan- iel was uninjured. No other persons or vehi- cles were involved. The FHP report stated that both drivers were using seatbelts, and that an investigation is pend- ing into whether alcohol may have been involved in Aguras' case. Alcohol was not a factor with McDaniel. directing traffic at the school. A vehicle was traveling east on CR- 30A, its driver and sole occupant Alexa L. Lefe- vre, 25, of Santa Rosa Beach. Lefevre made a left turn, attempting to turn into Butler, but failed to observe Hantz- is. Lefevre turned, and the left side mirror of her vehicle struck Hantzis. Hantzis was *rans- ported to Sacred Heart Hospital and treated for minor injuries. Lefevre was not injured, and was cited for careless driving and no valid proof of insurance. No other persons or vehi- cles were involved. Al- cohol was not a factor. NO. 6 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE I, SECTION 28 Prohibition on Public Funding of Abortions; Construction of Abortion Rights This proposed amendment provides that public funds may not be expended for any abortion or for health-benefits coverage that includes coverage of abortion. This prohibition does not apply to an expenditure required by federal law, a case in which a woman suffers from a physical disorder, physical injury, or physical illness that would place her in danger of death unless an abortion is performed, or a case of rape or incest. This proposed amendment provides that the State Constitution may not be interpreted to create broader rights to an abortion than those contained in the United States Constitution. With respect to abortion, this proposed amendment overrules court decisions which conclude that the right of privacy under Article I, Section 23 of the State Constitution is broader in scope than that of the United States Constitution.

Dear Auntie Em, I'm a married mother of four. All our kids are grown, except one. My fifth child, as I call him, is my husband. Now, don't get me wrong. He is responsible. He works full-time, but then again, so do I. We have been through a lot together, but I find my- self recently question- ing whether I want to remain married. My problem? Well, four kids fly the next, yet I'm still picking Big Bird's socks off the floor as he's been on this earth almost 60 years and still can't find the laundry hamper in our house. Our rain gutters are full of leaves and there are a half a mil- lion unfinished projects laying around our house and garage. I know to some it may not seem like a lot, but at my age, I'd ac- tually like to clean my house and have it stay that way for five min- utes. I wasn't this way while raising our kids. I expected our home to be messy then. But now, it's starting to wear on me more and more ev- ery day. I fantasize about sinks without dishes laying in them and de- serted islands where husbands aren't al- lowed. I'm really frus- trated and don't want to nag, but am not sure what I can do to change things either. Any ad- vice? Wife and mother Dear Wife, They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. That might be true, but I do need to express that it's hard for people to break pat- terns and habits that are ingrained and com- fortable. I knew a lady once who threw away every- thing her husband left laying around or on the floor. One morning, he couldn't find his under- wear. He had to go out and buy some new, with the warning they too, would be released back to man land if he threw them on the floor. Sur- prisingly, he learned to find the INSIDE of the hamper. Why? Because it had a direct result on him and he learned of his wife's frustration at the same time. Now, I'm all for talk- ing it out, but when it goes in one ear and out the other, it might be time for more ac- tion and less talk. But, make sure you are will- ing to follow through with your actions and not just give them lip service or they will not have any real effect. I also understand that sometimes the lack of help seems like the greatest disrespect one partner can give to an- other. It makes it seem as if their free time is more valuable than composer and the work. The program lasted approximately 80 min- utes, including an inter- mission. The first half began in the 17th and ended in the 18th century, featuring works from the Baroque to the Vi- ennese and English Classical periods. Com- posers were Johann Pachelbel, Samuel Wesley and his brother Charles, Joseph Mys- livecek (a Czech com- poser, contemporary and friend of the Mo- zart family) and Johann Sebastian Bach. The works played included familiar pieces (Bach's well-loved "Wachet Auf," known in English as "Sleepers Awake") and Myslivecek's less frequently heard "Trio," written for violin, flute and cello, which Home opined might be miss- ing a "lost" movement. Following intermis- sion, the trio returned and moved forward in time. They opened with "Hallelujah," a poignant song by Canadian com- poser/poet/singer Leon- ard Cohen. Home said that the song, writ- ten in 1984, has since become a standard of many singers, and is often heard in film and television scores. Cohen reportedly wrote some 100 verses for it. "We'll play a short version," Home reassured the audience. Three tangos fol- lowed, "La Paloma" by Sebastian Yradier, "El Choclo" (arguably the most familiar tango theme of all) by Angel Grigorio Villoldo, and "Tango No. 3" by Jose Ferrer (not the movie actor, said Home).

But, let me add this last piece of advice. This tough love may cause friction, so, before you pull out the hefty bag and start throwing away or donating all that stuff left laying around, think about how impor- tant it really is. Some- times, having a loving and dependable spouse is worth a messy house. Sometimes, we have to pick our battles and maybe a personal place, just for you, like one of the kids' old bedrooms might suffice as your special retreat, with no men or dirty socks al- lowed. It's something to think about. Good luck and God bless. Auntie Em Have a problem? Got a question? Want to vent about an issue and get some feedback? Auntie Em would love to hear what's on your mind.

Sent into the deep, dark for- est by their exasperat- ed mother, Hansel and Gretel meet up with a number of peculiar, yet endearing characters... a fiery troll who guards his little wooden bridge, an articulate and wise owl, a forest sprite, a beautiful dew princess, a protective sandman, and two hobgoblins who are in the service of the evil (but extremely fun- ny) gingerbread witch. In order to fatten him up as the main in- gredient for her "bub- bling pot pie" the witch locks poor Hansel in a cage and forces Gretel to feed him nothing but wonderful goodies of ev- ery kind. But, of course, there must be a "Hap- pily Ever After" ending and everyone will cheer Gretel as she outwits the old witch and sets free all the children who have been turned into gingerbread cook- ies.

Proceeds from the pageant ben- efit the Miss Chautau- qua Scholarship fund. workshop at County Extension First Baptist G.A. Girls are presented the gospel in an extraordinary way The gospel was illus- trated to First Baptist Church Girls in Action through carving pump- kins. The illustration goes like this, being a Chris- tian is just like a pump- kin. First, God picks you from the pumpkin patch and brings one in from the field. The Bible said He selects us out of the world. We are in the world, but no longer of the world. He then washes the dirt off form the outside that we received from being around all the other pumpkins. All the out- side influences of our former life must be cleaned up. Old things are passed away and all things become new. Then, He carefully removes all the "yucky stuff' called sin out from the inside. Look at this! Yuk! Sin will not have such a internal power. He then changes us from the inside out by the Power of His Words. He carefully removes all those seeds of doubt, hate, greed, and fear. He replaces them with the seeds of faith, hope and love. After Jesus in invited inside, you begin .to experience the changing power of God's love in your life. Then He carves a new smiling face. Our countenance is changed by the power of His presence in our life. We then become so grate- ful, it can even show on our face. Now, we are going to light this candle inside. Look! This pumpkin now reflects the light from inside out.. So too, when Jesus, who is called the Son of Light, lives inside of us. He shines through our life for all to see. We can let His light reflect through us to reveal His pres- ence. 1. Lord, open my mind so I can learn new things about you. (cut off top of pumpkin. 2. Remove the things in my life that don't please you. Forgive the wrong things I do and help me to forgive oth- ers. (remove innards) 3. Open my eyes to see the beauty you've made FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH G.A.'S GIRLS get an hands-on lesson in the gospel. in the world around me. (cut open eyes. 4. I'm sorry for the times I've turned my nose at the food you provide. (cut out nose) 5. Let everything I say please You. (cut out mouth) 6. Lord, help me show your lights to oth- ers through the thing I do. Amen.

Start- ing running back Teon Long played only the first quarter and added 92 yards, including the opening score of the night on a 56-yard run on the squad's first pos- session for a quick 7-0 lead. Walton managed the team's only score of the night in the third quar- ter when a long run by Amos Williams set up a halfback pass on the next play from Williams to Ken Randolph for a 32-yard scoring strike to cut the lead to 28-7. Walton's Rodney Shipman scooped up a fumble by Marianna at the Braves 1-yard line with 7:58 to go in the first half to thwart one of the Bulldogs' scoring attempts but there were few bright spots for the defense otherwise as Marianna's size and speed were more than the host squad could handle. The Braves totaled only 25 yards of total offense in the first half of play as the Bulldogs were satisfied with run- ning the football, and the clock, in building a 21-0 lead at intermis- sion. Junior Jock Wood- en scored three touch- downs on the night, his last, a 1-yard plunge, increasing the lead to 28-0 on the Bulldogs first possession of the second half. Amos Williams led the Braves with 55 rushing yards while Ken Randolph finished the night with three re- ceptions for 57 yards. At halftime, Walton saw Courtney Brown named the school's Homecoming Queen with Daniel Newsome crowned Homecoming King. Walton (3-5) will play their final road game of the 2012 season on Fri- day night as the Braves travel to Tallahassee to face North Florida Christian (4-2) with kickoff set for 6:30 p.m. at Eagle Field. NFC had an open date last week and holds an 8-0 mark in the series his- tory with Walton.

Holmes County took their first possession of the night 91 yards for a touchdown as the visiting team ground out a 15-play drive that saw Russ score his first touchdown of the night on a 1-yard plunge for an 8-0 lead with 3:03 left in the first quarter of play. South Walton's of- fense responded with a 10-play, 59-yard drive that culminated in a 4-yard touchdown toss from quarterback Johnathan Ortner to Bishop Waldrop. Sage Roberts caught the two- point pass to knot the score at 8-all with 10:38 to go in the first half. The tie lasted only 10 seconds as Franklin Russ took the ensuing kickoff 82 yards for a touchdown down the Seahawks sideline to push the lead back to 16-8. The Bluedevils owned the rest of the night as they scored the next 30 points of the game, rid- ing Chad Leavins 132 rushing yards to move the ball down the field with Franklin Russ adding 116 yards of his own. South Walton had their first two drives of the second half end in futility as the Bluedev- ils defense stopped the Seahawks on fourth down both times. The Seahawks finally broke through for their final points of the night with 29 seconds re- maining in the game when Ortner hooked up with Drew Pfeiffer on a 14-yard reception for the final margin. Pfe- iffer managed to haul in seven receptions for 95 yards while Ortner threw for 202 yards in the contest. The Seahawks were able to run the football for only 29 yards and had a pair of turnovers in their second District 3, Class A contest of the season. South Walton(0-7) hosts Liberty Coun- ty(6-2) in a non-district contest on Friday night at 7 p.m. The Bulldogs defeated Blountstown 20-7 last week and'host Port St. Joe on Nov. 2 in a contest that will like- ly decide the District 4 championship. ~Jt;"" - .. ..

(Photo by Jeffrey Powell) Northview takes District 1-A lead with 42-0 victory against Freeport : By REID TUCKER Northview solidified its top spot in District 1-A football when the Chiefs meted out a dev- astating 42-0 shutout over Freeport. The Chiefs entered the Oct. 19 contest with a 4-2 record, one game ahead of the Bulldogs, who hosted the game. As has been the case for the past two years when the two teams met, both needed a win over the other to get an inside line on a district championship. Free- port had that distinc- tion in 2009 and 2010, but Northview got the title last year and twice stopped the Bulldogs in the first round of the regional bracket before going on to lose to last year's state runner-up Chipley. As is evinced by their convincing victories over Jay and Freeport, the Chiefs now have very little standing be- tween them and anoth- er district crown. As for the game against the Bulldogs, head coach Sid Wheatley said the two weeks each team had to get ready showed dividends for his squad, which balanced the run- ning and passing attack to great effect. "We've been running a very up-tempo offense recently and we used the two weeks to perfect that the best way we could," Wheatley said. "It looked like it paid off for us tonight. I thought we executed that of- fense very well tonight and our defense played tough." Northview posted big numbers against Freeport, totaling 410 yards of total offense to the Bulldogs' 158. Se- nior quarterback Kevin Vaughn led the Chiefs to victory, completing 12 of 16 passes for 138 of his team's yards and four touchdowns while running for 72 more yards. LaMikal Kyles, LaDarius Thomas, and brothers Neiko and Neino Robinson and were all instrumental in Northview's offen- sive assault. Kyles (17 carries, 121 yards) and Thomas each had a touchdown run on the night, while older broth- er Neiko was on the re- ceiving end of three of Vaughn's TD passes and 11th-grader Neino caught the fourth. The Chiefs began counting coup on their opponents early in the game, needing a shade fewer than 90 seconds to score their first TD of the night on a 25-yard pass from Vaughn to the elder Robinson brother. Freeport was forced to punt, their first of five on the night, after being held to fourth-and-11 on the 32 yard line. North- view charged ahead to score again nine plays later, with Kyles doing most of the pushing and shoving to set up an- other Vaughn-to-Neiko Robinson pass from 10 yards out. Both extra- point kicks were good and the Chiefs led 14-0 with 4:45 left in the first quarter. The visiting team once again forced Free- port to punt, this time from its own 39-yard line, to score again on the next possession. Kyles and Thomas took turns on bringing the ball back up the field, with Thomas busting through the middle to the end zone from 3 yards away. Vaughn put the point-after kick through the posts to give the Chiefs a 21-0 score with 22 seconds remaining in the peri-' od. Freeport had its best drive of the night at the start of Q2, with quar- terback Gabe Moore finding Owen Cole on a pass for an 18-yard gain. Morgan Hardee carried the ball 21 yards to the 50, and Cole got it across two plays later, catching a pass from Moore to get the ball down to the 20-yard line. Despite a good look, Freeport suf- fered a few incomple- tions and runs for no gain, and the Bulldogs turned the ball over on downs with 8:25 to go in the half. Vaughn wasted no time in reestablishing the Chiefs' momentum, as he broke loose on a 40-yard run across mid- field to the Bulldogs' 40 yard line. Kyles fol- lowed up, taking the ball to the 13. Vaughn hooked up with Neino Robinson for a 10-yard scoring pass less than a 24-yard line when it got minute after the Chiefs the ball back and so it got the ball back. A suc- also had to punt.

The Braves defeat- ed the Seahawks in straight sets on Senior Night by a score of 25- 22, 25-21 and 27-25 in a match that was very tight in all three sets. The Braves managed to win crucial points down the stretch in all three games with senior Courtney Brown serv- ing out the last three points of the first set to break a 22-all tie and hand the home team the advantage. South Walton led the second set 20-19 only to see the Braves get hot at the net as senior Si- erra Contreras contrib- uted several key shots as Walton rallied for a 25-21 victory in that stanza. The Seahawks held leads of 15-12 and 20-18 in the third game only to see Walton knot the score at 24-all before go- ing on to win the match with a 27-25 decision. Walton honored Brown, Contreras, Camri Thomas, Shalyn Bailey, Alyssa Padgett and Karmel Teves be- fore the varsity contest for their hard work in the program as the team's six seniors. Walton posted a five- set victory at home over Choctaw on Thursday night as the Braves took the first set 25- 22 before dropping the next two 25-12 and 25- 21. Walton forced a fifth set with a 25-21 victory in the fourth and cap- tured the match with a 15-11 decision in the final game. Walton hosts the Dis- trict 1, Class 4A tourna- ment this week and will likely square off with Pensacola Catholic on Oct. 25 at 6 p.m. if the Braves can earn a third victory over Marianna on Tuesday, Oct. 23. Details of that match were unavailable as The DeFuniak Herald went to press on Tues- day afternoon. South Walton, which finished the regular season at 11-8, travels to Freeport as the top seed in the District 2, Class A tournament. The Seahawks need a semi-final win to earn their first playoff berth in the sport in school history. South Walton will face the winner of the Chipley-Freeport match on Thursday at 7 p.m. if they defeat the winner of the opening round match between Bozeman and Holmes County. Team Notes: Marla Harrell is now 116-80 as the Braves' volley- ball coach in eight sea- sons. Walton is 20-1 versus South Walton in the history of the se- ries. The Braves' only loss to the Seahawks was at South Walton on Aug. 30, 2005. Walton posted a combined 4-0 mark against county foes Freeport and South Walton. Waltbn has won 13 or more games under Harrell in six of her eight years as head coach.

Odom passed the 2012 Viper champion Korey Ruble off of turn four with just eight laps to go. Odom was then able to pull away from Ruble and Augie Grill to cap- ture the biggest win of his young career. Odom finished second to Grill in last season's Snow- flake 100 at Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola. The Alabama Pro 200 concluded the race sea- son at South Alabama Speedway for 2012. The late model world will converge on the 3/8 mile again in March for the 37th Annual Rattler Weekend. Jeff Oglesby of Crest- view and Donald Hurley of Ponce de Leon won the Media Bass Team Championship event held at the Apalachicola River in Gulf County on October 20-21. The lo- cal duo won the two-day event with a total of 26.6 pounds, posting 11.29 pounds on the first day and a whopping 15.31 pounds on the second. The pair brought home $15,000 for their effort as they out-fished 39 other duos. Paxton clashed with Ponce De Leon in four middle school basket- ball games on Tues- day, Oct. 16, with the Bobcats getting the majority of the wins. Paxton's sixth- and sev- enth-grade boys took the win by a score of 31-10, and the eighth- grade team won 32-19 against the visiting Pi- rates.

The tournament will be played Nov. 8-11, at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows. Four different Gators scored four second-half goals to give the No. 11 Florida soccer team (13-4-1, 10-2 SEC) a 4-0 win at Vanderbilt (5-9- 5, 2-6-4 SEC) Sunday at the Vanderbilt Soccer Stadium. One match re- mains in the Southeast- ern Conference regular season schedule. Flori- da is at South Carolina on Thursday and a win would give the Gators their 12th league title. Florida owns 30 points in the league standings and Texas A&M is sec- ond at 28 after its 1-0 double overtime win Sunday over Georgia. The No. 11 Florida volleyball team faced a seemingly insurmount- able challenge on Sun- day, as the Gators were down 0-2 to an experi- enced Texas A&M team with a rocking crowd of 1,727 Aggie faithful at Reed Arena. Florida, as they did Oct. 7 at home against Kentucky, came together and came back as the Gators won the final three sets to claim the match, 3-2 (14-25, 25-27, 25-23, 25-23, 15- 6), and stay undefeated in the SEC. The Or- ange and Blue are now 17-2 on the season and 11-0 in conference play, while the Aggies fall to 15-5 on the year and 7-4 in conference action. Will Scott kicked a 42-yard field goal with 11 seconds remaining to cap a 16-point second half comeback by Troy in a 38-37 win over FIU Saturday afternoon at Veterans Memorial Sta- dium. The 16-point defi- cit erased by the Trojans over the game's final 23 minutes is the largest second half comeback by a Troy team since they rallied from down 17 in a 28-17 victory at Central Florida in 1995. Troy (4-3, 3-2 Sun Belt) started the game-win- ning possession on its own 6-yard line. Deon Anthony's arm, Shawn Southward's legs and a pair of 15-yard FIU penalties set up the Trojans on the FIU 25-yard line for Scott's game-winning kick. Kentucky was pre- dicted to win the 2013 Southeastern Confer- ence men's basketball championship in vot- ing by a select panel of both SEC and national media members. Each SEC school selected media members that cover their team and additional media from across the nation were selected by the confer- ence office to form the voting panel. Louisville is the unanimous choice to win the 2012-13 BIG EAST men's basketball regular-season crown in the BIG EAST Pre- season Coaches' Poll. The Cardinals, who have three starters back from last year's team that reached the NCAA Final Four, received 14 first-place votes and a total of 196 points.The league's head coaches do not place their own teams on their ballots. Under coach Rick Pitino last season, Louisville also won The BIG EAST Championship Present- ed by American Eagle Outfitters and finished with a 31-6 record. Senior guard Peyton Siva, who was selected 2012-13 BIG EAST Pre- season Player of the Year, is the floor leader for the Cardinals. He averaged 9.1 points and was fourth in the league in assists with a 5.6 mark last year. Center Gorgui Dieng averaged 9.1 points, 9.1 rebounds and a league-leading 3.2 blocked shots. For- ward Chane Behanan made the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team after averaging 9.5 points and 7.5 rebounds. The BIG EAST Con- ference and Madison Square Garden have agreed to a multiyear extension of their con- tract that will keep The BIG EAST Champion- ship, the nation's pre- mier college basketball conference tournament, in the World's Most Famous Arena. Madi- son Square Garden has been the home of The BIG EAST Champion- ship since 1983. It is the longest running confer- ence tournament at the same site in college bas- ketball. For the fourth time in five years, Mississip- pi State will again play a non-conference foot- ball game against an in-state university, di- rector of athletics Scott Stricklin announced on Oct. 17. The Bulldogs will take on the Alcorn State Braves at Da- vis Wade Stadium on Sept. 7, 2013. Missis- sippi State previously announced a non-con- ference matchup with Oklahoma State in the Texas Kick Off, which will be played at Hous- ton's Reliant Stadium on Aug. 31. In response to out- standing and growing fan support of football in the United Kingdom, the NFL will take a his- toric step in its interna- tional development in 2013 when for the first time two regular-season games will be played in the UK. On Sunday, Sept. 29, 2013, the Min- nesota Vikings will host the Pittsburgh Steelers at London's Wembley Stadium. This is in ad- dition to the previously announced game set for Sunday, Oct. 27, 2013 - also at Wembley - when the Jacksonville Jaguars will host the San Francisco 49ers.

MICHAEL SMITH This Week in College Football History Oct. 22-28 Courtesy The National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame. Oct. 24, 2009: The bat- tle began in Tuscaloosa, and Alabama quarterback and NFF National Schol- ar-Athlete Greg McElroy led the Crimson Tide on four scoring drives, all ending with field goals and giving his team a slight 12-10 advantage against Tennessee. At the begin- ning of the fourth quarter, Crimson Tide 350-pound nose guard Terrence Cody preserved the lead by blocking the Vol's 43-yard field goal attempt. With the game entering the last seconds, Tennessee would again attempt another game-winning kick from the 44, which would have ended Alabama's unde- feated season. But Cody, who had never blocked a kick in his career until this contest, once again burst through the Volun- teer line and stuffed the potential game-winner. Oct. 22, 1949: In a bat- tle of Hall of Fame coach- es, Matty Bell's Southern Methodist squad upset Bear Bryant's undefeated Kentucky Wildcats 20-7 at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. SMU took the field with- out injured Hall of Fame HB Doak Walker, relying instead on Hall of Fame HB Kyle Rote, who rushed for two touchdowns as 'the Mustangs completely dominated the second half. SMU would finish the sea- son 5-4-1. Kentucky would finish 9-3, losing to Santa Clara in the Orange Bowl. Oct. 23, 1976: In a 45-0 defeat of Navy in Annapo- lis, Md., Pittsburgh Pan- thers running back Tony Dorsett breaks the all- time college rushing re- cord of fellow Hall of Fame back Archie Griffin of Ohio State. Dorsett broke the record on a 32-yard touch- down run. On the day, Dorsett would gain 180 yards and also become the first player to run for over 1,000 in four different sea- sons. Dorsett would go on to win the Heisman Tro- phy later that year. Oct. 25, 1980: College football's all-time passing record was set by Purdue quarterback Mark Her- rmann in West Lafayette, Ind. Midway through the second quarter against Michigan State, Her- rmann passed the record held by "The Throwin' Samoan," Washington State's Jack Thompson. Herrmann would finish with 340 yards in the 36- 25 win over the Spartans, increasing his career total to 8,087 yards. Herrmann was inducted into the Col- lege Football Hall of Fame in 2010. Oct. 26, 1991:. Purple was the color of the day. For the first time since 1939 in Clemson, S.C, the Tigers wore purple jerseys in a 29-19 win over North Carolina State. While in Evanston, Ill., Northwest- ern wore purple pants against Illinois. Coach Francis Peay remarked that the Wildcats "looked like grapes," while the players were fired up by the new pants in their 17-11 upset of the No. 17 Fighting Illini, marking the first defeat of a ranked team by Northwestern in 20 years. Oct. 27, 1956: No. 7 Texas A&M, led by Hall of Fame HB John David Crow, turned back unbeat- en and No. 8 ranked Bay- lor 19-13 in Waco, Texas. Crow threw a five-yard touchdown pass to John Tracey, and in the 4th quarter, Crow scored the game-winning touchdown on a two-yard run. Led by Hall of Fame coach Bear Bryant, the Aggies won the Southwest Conference and finished with a 9-0- 1 record and a No. 5 AP ranking. Baylor finished the season ranked No. 11 in the AP Poll, posting 9-2 record and upsetting Ten- nessee in the Sugar Bowl. Oct. 28, 1989: Ohio State, led by Hall of Fame coach John Cooper, tied an NCAA record for big- gest point margin come- back, overcoming a 31-0 second quarter deficit to beat Minnesota 41-37 in Minneapolis. Greg Fry's 15-yard touchdown pass to Jeff Graham with 41 seconds left completed the rally. Both teams finished the season with winning records, the Buckeyes 8-3 and the Gophers 6-5.

Robots teach students teamwork during BEST competition Robots raced against time as students from northwest Florida com- peted recently at the sixth annual Emerald Coast BEST Robotics competition at the Uni- versity of West Florida Field House. Middle and high school students com- peted at the competi- tion sponsored by Gulf Power Company. The event pits teams from area northwest Florida schools in a head-to- head competition to teach teamwork, prob- lem solving, project management and pride in task completion. BEST Robotids Inc. is a non-profit, volun- teer-based organization whose mission is to in- spire students to pursue careers in engineering, science, and technology through participation in a sports-like, science and engineering-based robotics competition. "Gulf Power believes the competition teaches students practical en- gineering, science and math skills, which are critical for their fu- ture," said Jeff Rogers, Gulf Power spokesper- son. "But the event also teaches the students to work together as a team, to organize proj- ects, to market their work and to creatively solve problems." It takes several vol- unteers to organize the event. Jennifer Grove, Workforce Develop- ment coordinator for Gulf Power, has served on the steering commit- tee since the program started in 2006. "Competitions like this are critical to en- gage students in proj- ect-based learning that will excite them about and inspire them to pur- sue studies in science, technology, engineering and math," said Grove. "Students have so much fun designing, building and troubleshooting the robot that they often aren't aware of the criti- cal STEM skills they're practicing through this program." Each student team has six weeks to design and build a remote- controlled robot to solve a problem or perform a See ROBOTS 15-C South Walton Mosquito Control District amends budget By BEN GRAFTON The first order of business at the South Walton County Mosqui- to Control Board (SW- CMC) meeting of Oct. 16 was the financial report and a lengthy discussion about bud- get revisions. Commis- sioner Bob Hudson re- ported that there is a carryoyer of $72,000 to the 2012-2013 budget and that the 2011-2012 fiscal year ended with a cash deficit of about $100,000 which came out of reserves. Hudson said he is getting very concerned because of the consti- tutional amendments that are on November's ballot. He said, "Amend- ment 4 could have a far reaching impact. In the past with a bounce back in the market we could see a 10-percent in- crease in revenues, but now we could only see a 5-percent increase. The other aspect is the recapture rate on home- steaded property ... now, even if my (proper- ty) value goes down, my taxes can go up by what is called a cost of living adjustment. This could be eliminated by one of the amendments." The result could reduce tax revenue for SWCMCD. Chairman John Ma- gee said, "This will be a tough year, more so than we anticipated. We're going in with our eyes open and we have to be careful." He indi- cated some planned ex- penditures might have to be deferred. The discussionturned to proposed budget amendments: Chemical costs in the coming year could possibly increase by $40,000 if another season with large mos- quito populations and West Nile Virus mate- rializes. To deal with this possibility a deci- sion was made to add $20,000 to the chemi- cals budget and $20,000 to the contingency fund. Other changes included some increases in bud- geted amounts for com- munications, utilities, training and printing. Director Ben Brew- er reported that blood samples taken from the chickens are still show- ing the presence of West Nile Virus and that a second case of West Nile Virus has been re- ported in the county. It is understood that the district is supposed to be given the general locations of where the West Nile Virus cases have occurred. If the in- formation is received it will help mosquito con- trol planning. The office is getting calls that request in- spections, but the heavy work load interferes with rapid response. The status of GPS software for the spray trucks was reviewed. When this software is operational, it should be capable of providing historical data that will improve mosquito con- trol planning Questions arose about honoring "no spray zones" and treat- ing abandoned pools. Magee said, "The dis- trict has to respect the no spray requests...but if one neighbor says, 'No, I want you to spray,' we have to spray." Com- missioner Jim Crawford said, "Once before the district was told that it had to get permission to spray pools. If no per- mission was given the pool cannot be treated." Brewer advised the board that personnel evaluations are written but are still ongoing. Brewer also report- ed, "Advice has. been received that it may not be fair, but it is legal to take benefits away from part-time employees." Hudson asked Brew- er to conduct a time study to detail how much time a part-time employee spends mow- ing ditches to control plant growth. A lengthy discussion about scheduling part- time employees ensued and concern was voiced that that assignments are not always thought' out and planned.

The Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) report stated that a vehicle was traveling south on U.S. 331 ap- proaching the inter- section. In the vehicle were driver Joseph W. Brown, 61, and Mary Brown, 55, both of Mon- roe, Ga. Brown slowed down to make a right turn onto U.S. 98. A school bus, driven by Hector O. Sosa, 59, of Santa Rosa Beach, was also traveling south on U.S. 331, be- hind Brown's vehicle. The FHP report said that Sosa failed to see Brown come to a com- plete stop, and that the bus struck the rear of Brown's vehicle. Joseph W. Brown sustained minor in- juries. Neither Mary Brown, Sosa, or any of the 53 student passen- gers on the bus were injured. Sosa was cited for careless driving. All involved were using seatbelts, and alcohol was not a factor.

': , -", THE DeFUNIAK SPRINGS HERALD BREEZE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25,2012 RECORD CONTINUED ing took place at the Sandestin Hilton. Moliterno said of the rebranding effort ini- tiated by the TDC in 2011, "It worked." As evidence, she pointed to 16 straight months of double-digit increases in bed tax revenue. Moliterno also spoke of another record for the year, that of 115 sea turtle nests on the county's beaches. "This year shattered all re- cords," she announced. South Walton Turtle Watch director Sharon Maxwell and her volun- teers were recognized for their hard work in connection with this achievement. Group members walk the beach every morning to mark the nests of these native creatures, and they work to monitor and protect the nests and the hatchlings that emerge from them. The TDC provides sponsor- ship and financial sup- port for the turtle watch in a partnership effort. "We are so grateful," Moliterno told Max- well. Moliterno also recog- nized the TDC's beach maintenance team, which services 470 trash receptacles each day of the year at the TDC's 67 public beach, bay and lake accesses and maintains those accesses. The contribu- tions of other TDC staff were highlighted, as well, including market- ing, sales, administra- tive, and visitor center personnel. Moliterno acknowl- edged the efforts of Jeff McVay, who enforces beach-related ordinanc- es as the TDC's code enforcement officer, and TDC Beach Ambas- sador Chelsea Atkin- son, who interacts with beachgoers to welcome them and educate them about these ordinances and the Leave No Trace program. The TDC contracts with the South Walton Fire District (SWFD) to administer the life- guard and information- al services that are part of the TDC's beach safe- ty program. Moliterno noted that SWFD life- guards made more than 200,000 contacts with beachgoers this season and performed almost 15,000 assists. She also spoke of the TDC's partnership with the E.O. Wilson Biophil- ia Center, a privately- owned Walton County environmental educa- tion facility established by conservationist M.C. Davis on approximately 50,000 acres set aside for preservation and restoration. Previously only open to students and educators, the cen- ter is now open to the public at specific times throughout the year due to funding from the TDC as part of the or- ganization's ecotourism efforts. According to Molitero, approximate- ly 3,800 visitors took the opportunity to see the center and attend programs there over the past year. She said of the ar- rangement for Chef Emeril Lagasse to de- vote an episode of his 2013 Cooking Channel program "Emeril's Flor- ida" to Walton County, "We are very excited." She told attendees that the episode will show- case the county and that the chef will be cooking with produce from local organic farms. Moliterno mentioned regional and national awards received by FROM PAGE 1-C the TDC in connection with its marketing and public relations efforts, among those three Golden Image Awards from the Florida Public Relations Association, and seven Addy Awards from the American Ad- vertising Foundation. A total of $370,000 in TDC sponsorship fund- ing has been awarded for local events during the 2012-13 fiscal year. A TDC alliance with another local partner, the Cultural Arts Alli- ance, provides for the Bayou Arts Center to serve the public with art workshops and ex- hibits. Included in that partnership is the Art- ist of the Year Program. Allison Craft, who uses natural elements such as leather and pearls, was selected as Artist of the Year for 2012. Announced at the Oct. 16 annual meeting was Artist of the Year for 2013, folk artist Andy Saczynski. Sacyn- ski likes to use recycled materials to transform "junk into funk." The new recipient of the Van Ness Butler Jr. Hospitality Award was announced at the meet- ing, as well. The award was presented to E.O Wilson Biophilia Cen- ter founder M.C. Davis and Stella Davis, his wife and partner in con- servation. "It's humbling to see this broad-based accep- tance," M.C. Davis com- mented upon accepting JEFF ZEHNDER of Zehnder Communications addresses attendees at the Oct.16 annual meeting. Zehnder was recently engaged as advertising agen- cy for the tourism council. (Photo by Dotty Nist) the award. TDC Chairman Scott Brannon was honored for his more than eight years' service in that capacity. Brannon, who also serves as county commission chairman, will conclude his com- mission term in Novem- ber. Jeff Zehnder of Zehnder Communica- tions, the New Orleans- based company recently selected as advertising agency for the TDC, ad- dressed attendees from the stage. Zehnder told the gathering that he and his employees are "ec- static" to be working with the TDC to pro- mote the destination. "South Walton is simply our favorite place on the globe," he enthused. Zehnder was very complimentary about the TDC's use of the word "perfect" in the ta- gline "Find your perfect beach," "Think of your idea of a perfect beach;" he told attendees, "doesn't it just make you smile?" Zehnder said the people in his company are big believers in re- search and in "sustain- ing and evolving the brand." They like to talk to consumers and capture people's stories, he explained. Zehnder pledged that the advertising his com- pany develops will be authentic to the area, believable, and in keep- ing with the TDC's stra- tegic plan. He added PAGE 3-C that they want to share with the community in striving to preserve and protect the area. "We'll work to see that our marketing ef- forts work in concert with the efforts of each of you," Zehnder con- cluded. "We look forward to an exciting year ahead," Moliterno responded. SHARON MAXWELL, South Walton Turtle Watch (SWTW) director and group volunteer Rich- ard Fowlkes. SWTW volunteers were recognized at the Oct. 16 annual meeting for their dedication. There was a record number of 115 sea turtle nests on county beaches for the season.

I presently serve on the School Board of Walton County representing District 5. Because of this position I believe that I have a unique perspective as it relates to the upcoming election for Superintendent of Schools. Public Education today faces many headwinds that re- quire strong, decisive, and most of all experienced leadership. Budget cuts, state and federal mandates (many unfunded), every-changing and more rigorous standardized testing, and dealing with teacher unions are among the daily tasks this job entails. All must be handled while striving to obtain the most important goal of maximizing student achievement in today's lax discipline and social media world. The learning curve for this job is tremendous. Walton County voters have a clear choice in this race. Carlene Anderson is a strong leader. Carlene Anderson is not afraid to make tough decisions, and most importantly, she has the experience needed to keep our school district moving forward. Through Carlene's leadership, Walton County Schools have made tremendous strides; we cannot afford to move backwards. Please vote for Carlene Anderson on Tuesday, November 6. BUDGET CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1-C Magee and Hudson asked Brewer to provide complete job descrip- tions for all employees. Brewer reported that he had received some prices for a lawn maintenance service. The service would be provided two times per month at a cost of $125 for each occurrence. The costto have a part-time employee do this work is about $20 per occur- rence. Magee and Hud- son agreed that they just want to be sure the lawn work is cost effec- tive. Pictures of damaged trucks were given to the board by Brewer. An effort is underway to send in an insurance claim. One quote re- ceived for doing cosmet- ic work on a truck was $2,000 $2,500. Insur- ance is $500 deductible. Scratches on another truck can be buffed out and spot-painted in house Hudson said that all damage to trucks should be evaluated and acted on promptly. Crawford agreed and indicated that without a police report the in- surance company might not cover the damage. Brewer addressed the issue of storm drains and commented there are an amazing number of these drains. All those that are hold- ing water are treated. It costs about $30,000 to treat the whole group. It has been deter- mined that the acquired truck monitoring soft- ware will work. In or- der to transfer data col- lected at the shop to the office, a fiber optic cable or a directional antenna for wireless operation would have to be in- stalled.

C2,F / -/- (5 l By DOTTY NIST A Blue Mountain Beach homeowner who had constructed a large playhouse for his daugh- ter has been found in vi- olation of county code. The decision took place at the Walton County Code Enforce- ment Board Oct. 18 regular meeting at the South Walton Annex. The homeown- er, Onno Horn, was charged with violation of county code due to the playhouse having been constructed without a building permit and within the rear setback of his Sand Dunes Road property. He had been required to appear at- the code board meeting following a complaint being filed against him and an investigation by code enforcement offi- cers. Code Enforcement Officer J.C Alford testi- fied that a 15-foot set- back is required at the rear of the property in qiiestion. "'While small acces- sory buildings are ex- empt from the require- ment for a building permit in most areas of the county, the rules are more stringent for these buildings in the coastal building zone in which the home is located. Walton County Building Official Bobby Bearden had made the determination that there was a require- ment for a building per- mit to be obtained for the construction of the playhouse. Wayne Dyess, county director of planning and development services, had stated that in his opinion the placement of the playhouse in the setback represented a violation of county code. Dyess said that he had made the decision af- ter viewing the build- ing. "It's a fairly large building," he said. Ac- cording to testimony at the hearing, the play- house is approximately six feet in height. Dyess said he considered the playhouse to be an ac- cessory structure to the single-family home on the property. Horn contested the charges of violations, arguing that the code provisions should not apply to the playhouse, since it is not a ma- jor structure. He also argued that the word "structure" is not de- fined in county code. He asked for the dismissal of the case based on those contentions. While some board members appeared re- ceptive to Horn's argu- ment, Walton County Attorney Toni Craig cautioned them that their board was not the proper venue for chal- lenges to decisions of the building official and planning director. She maintained that ap- peals of these adminis- trative decisions would properly, be directed to the Walton County Zoning Board of Adjust- ment (ZBA). By ruling on whether the play- house should be con- sidered a structure, the code board would be in- fringing on the respon- sibility of the ZBA, she explained. However some board members continued to disagree on this point. Board member Butch Lawrence wondered why the case had come before the code board if the board members were not empowered to override the adminis- trative decisions. There was discussion that Horn would have been able to request a hearing on the mat- ter before the ZBA but had opted not to do so. It was Craig's opinion that, now that the case had come before the code board, the avenue of challenging the ad- ministrative decisions through the ZBA would no longer be available to him. However, she stated that Horn would have the opportunity to go to the ZBA at any time for a variance, which he could obtain if he was able to prove a hard- ship. There was a motion to find Horn in violation, direct him to correct the violation by Nov. 8, and be subject to $50-per- day fines for each day thereafter if the viola- tion was not corrected. The motion failed in a 3-3 tie vote, with board member Richard Fowl- kes abstaining. Fowl- kes, a neighbor of the Horn property, had filed the complaint. A motion with the same terms with the exception of the fines, which were proposed at $25 per day, carried with all aye votes. An- other motion to charge Horn $225 in admin- istrative fees for costs associated with hearing his case carried 5-1. Decisions of the Wal- .ton County Code Ep- forcement Board are appealable in circuit court.

THE DeFUNIAK SPRINGS HERALD BREEZE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25,2012 lips Well that spooky, scary, unforeseen, and nail-biting day is almost here and the nation grips for the horrific, maybe joyous result. No, I'm not referring to Halloween, but the presi- dential elections taking place on Nov. 6. It seems that every four years, the holidays in the remaining three months of the year are somewhat overshadowed by the elec- tions, and all the build-up to them. From the air- waves being bombarded with interviews, debates and mudslinging; the newspapers running ads for everything from mos- quito control board mem- bers, to state senator, to the radio blaring messages of who is better to run the country over the next four years, it seems to be the only thing of importance right now. Don't get me wrong, the elections are of the utmost importance, and this year's historical vote could change everything about our country. Two completely directed cam- paigns, two completely di- rected politicians, and two very different means of wanting to run the coun- try. With the more than $1 billion of advertising that both campaigns have spent for this election, very little has been spent on what is called the most afford- able, lowest maintenance, quickest airing, and argu- ably the most reliable so- cial media. Facebook, Twitter, Email, and other means of computer -generated ad- vertising, have taken this campaign by storm. Even though not affecting main- stream ad sales, it has ex- ploded and become "the" way to get the candidates' and parties' word out. In a staggering report that was released by a CNN/FOX/ MSNBC poll in late Sep- tember, Facebook has the following figures to boast about to their stock hold- ers next March. They are as follows: One billion monthly active users as of October 2012. Approximately 81 per- cent of monthly active us- ers are outside the U.S. and Canada. An average of 552 mil- lion daily active users in June 2012 in the states. A total of 600 million monthly active user used Facebook mobile products in September 2012. Some 435 million have confessed it is their only means of getting national and international news coverage. With its massive popu- larity and worldwide use, this year's political cam- paigns and debates, in- terviews, and soundbytes have partnered with Face- book and Twitter, to keep up with the hundreds of millions of instant messag- es, questions, comments, stats and other topics of discussion, when watching a debate, a townhall meet- ing, an interview, a talk show, or a focus group. National networks like NBC, ABC, CBS, and the cable news networks like FOX, CNN, MSNBC once frowned on the fact that viewers had so much feed- back on the stories that were being reported. Now they encourage people to write in with story ideas, comments, and questions. For this journalist, though, it is always encouraging to hear from' readers. Still, it's a lazy journalist who simply waits to get a sto- ry idea from one of those readers...just saying! But social media tools can play a vital part in getting a news story out i A HARDEST# '1 MARKET ", . ?'juir ^ ^ ^ri -M ** -*.1 & .e THE 2012 HARVEST MARKET and Boo Spectacular takes place Oct. 27 at Rose- mary Beach. Mor than 50 artists and crafters from across the region will be on hand selling holiday items and gifts, fine art, handcrafted jewelry and furniture, wood and metal sculpture, and photography.

Unlike using a Smartphone, or one the newest cellphone/pocket computer/blood pressure checker/wizard boxes, as referred to by my 93-year- old grandmother, it is the fastest and most conve- nient way to get messages, downloads and instant news and coverage, all while sitting in a business meeting, or riding your bike along the waterfront. But it is not just the networks that are taking advantage of those hun- dreds of millions of Face- bookers and Twitters, it's the political parties as well. With the "got to have it" attitude of the nation now, these campaigns are answering the public's call and getting them what they want, right when they want it! In 2008, Facebook be- came Obama's catalyst for his campaign and it was all targeted at the younger and college age voters. The tactic worked and because of tapping into that newer style of social media, many say his words, political promises, and message got through to them and ulti- mately got those voters to the polls on campuses all across the country. This cycle, both par- ties are bombarding the pages of Facebook, and every message, thought, bit of gossip, latest devel- opment, news, polls, inter- views and standings, are plastered on a Facebook page, right between a hel- lo from mom and the girl's fun-filled Saturday night pics. Both parties have re- alized that with the easy app that can be download- ed, and the fact that one of every three people own a cell phone, there is no bet- ter or quicker way to get that candidates' and poli- ticians' news and platform to the voting public. Public political action groups such as the Na- tional Republican Com- mittee, the American Tea Party, the National Rifle Association, the Nation- al Democratic Commit- tee, the Liberal Act Now Group. Moveon.org., and hundreds of more political groups, are on the verge of shutting Facebook down. Not because of not lik- ing what the social media is saying, but because of the thousands of hits and postings that these groups have been making for the better part of 2012. The public groups are also aware that instead of spending hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars on TV blitz and print ads, they can pay one person a base salary of $30,000 to post informa- tion on Facebook, for eight hours a day, and cover more readers and viewers than TV and print. This is the newest task for those marketing for these orga- nizations. No matter what politi- cal party posts you allow on your Facebook page, with your permission or not, the hits, posts and comments will only in- crease over the next two weeks, until the election on Nov. 6. But even after the election, and a clear winner has been elected, the post will still be around for weeks and months to come, since we only will have another 208 weeks until the next Presidential election. Don't forget to vote! BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND, the Grit & Grace summer production of, "Life at the Landings...and Be- yond," will return to the stage Nov. 3 and 4.

(Photo by Dotty Nist) Jeff Miller and candidates for local office address WRWF CHARLOTTE FLYNT, a candidate for South Walton Fire District Seat 5, is pledging to work to maintain the organization's level of service without dipping into contingency funds or raising taxes. (Photo by Dotty Nist) By DOTTY NIST "We're looking for- ward to getting the White House back and also taking the Sen- ate," U.S. Representa- tive Jeff Miller (R-Chu- muckla) told members of the Walton Repub- lican Women Feder- ated (WRWF) and their guests. Miller, who has served in the House of Representatives since 1998, was featured speaker at the WRWF's Oct. 17 regular meeting at Carrabba's Italian Grill in Miramar Beach. Since the recent redis- tricting put in place by the Florida Legislature, Miller's district now en- compasses all of Walton County. Miller told attendees that he would shortly leave for Ohio, where he would be working in support of Mitt Rom- ney's presidential cam- paign. He said he would then go to Michigan to help the campaign. He pledged to go wherever asked "so we can elect Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan." Miller said his opin- ion of the Oct. 16 debate between President Ba- rack Obama and Rom- ney was that Romney had won "on substance." He had heard comments that Obama had "hurt himself' in the debate with the undecided and women. Miller encouraged attendees to support Republican candidate Connie Mack in his bid for the U.S. Senate. "He is a true conservative," Miller said of Mack. He said of the race for the White House that the next 20 days would be critical, warn- ing that the president's campaign has a "ground Same" the likes of which has never been seen be- fore. He urged attend- ees to talk to all voters in support of Romney and Ryan. Miller was critical of Obama's oversight in the matter of the tragic Sept. 11 events in Libya and his administra- tion's response to the incident. "The presi- dent is not telling the truth about what took place," Miller charged. He pointed out that this had been the first time since 1979 that a United States ambassa- dor had been murdered. Miller charged that Obama had skipped his intelligence briefing in the wake of the murder of Ambassador Chris Stephens and had flown to Las Vegas for a fund raiser. "Nothing has got- ten better under this White House," Miller complained. Although the president did make the call to get rid of Osama bin Laden, he observed, al Quaeda is not dead but instead is in many places where it did not exist previously. He maintained that Obama's foreign policy "has no coherence." "Wouldn't it be nice to think that your presi- dent would be as strong against the Muslim Brotherhood as he is against Mitt Romney?" Miller asked the WRWF members. In response to a question about high gas prices, Miller noted that the government is not in control of gas prices, "and we do not want it in charge." What is needed is to get govern- ment "out of the way" so that more of America's own energy resources can be put to use, he ex- plained. The president, Mill- er continued, does not want to cooperate with Congress. to reduce the debt. The congressman admitted that during George Bush's presi- dency, more Republi- cans had "walked in lock step and drove the deficit up." "I did not," he told at- tendees. Miller warned that the $716 billion that had been removed from Medicare to go to Obam- acare would result in Medicare services being cut. "He cannot say he will not raise taxes on small business, given what he is going to do," Miller said of the presi- dent. Miller also charged that the backlog for veterans seeking dis- ability payments has doubled under the cur- rent administration. He pledged to inquire on behalf of two attendees who told him of prob- lems with veteran fam- ily members getting set up to receive their dis- ability payments. WRWF member Lois Hoyt expressed concern that Obama would start issuing executive orders as a "lame duck." Miller was confident that Rom- ney would be able to re- scind those orders once in the White House. Asked about the im- pending "fiscal cliff," Miller vowed not to "just vote to put it off." "We have to find plac- es to cut," he said. He pledged "not one more dime of taxes to Wash- ington, D.C.," until the federal government had demonstrated knowl- edge of spending appro- priate for the needs of the American public. Asked if there would be any move toward im- peachment of the presi- dent, Miller responded no. Instead he encour- aged a focus on "beating him at the ballot box." "You guys get it;" Miller told the gather- ing, "help your friends get it." "Florida is impor- tant, but if you know somebody in Ohio, call 'em," he urged. Following Miller's re- marks, several Republi- can candidates for local offices came forward to ask for support in the General Election. "I love this communi- ty," said Ronnie Faulk, a candidate for South Walton County Mos- See WRWF 7-C JOHNMAGEE, South Walton County Mosquito Control Seat 1 incumbent, with wife and campaign manager Pat Magee.

"I want to bring fresh ideas, new ideas," said Faulk, who is part of the Sacred Heart on the Emerald Coast Hospital hazmat team. Faulk advocated com- munity education by the SWMC. John Magee, the in- cumbent for the seat Faulk is seeking, has served eight years as a South Walton County Mosquito Control com- missioner and is current board chairman. Magee commented that the SW- CMC had trimmed its budget while increasing services. He revealed that the organization is now using its reserves in response to a local outbreak of West Nile Virus. The second case of this mosquito-borne disease has now been confirmed in Walton County as of Oct. 12, Magee said. He stated that SWCMC had been the first mosquito con- trol agency to notify the Florida Department of Health of the existence of West Nile Virus in the area. Bill Chapman, the Republican candidate for county commission District 1, emphasized his 32 years of law en- forcement experience, FROM PAGE 6-C most recently with the Walton County Sher- iffs Office (WCSO). The majority of those years were in leadership po- sitions, he indicated. Part of his responsibil- ity with the WCSO had been oversight of a $16 million budget, Chap- man added. Charlotte Flynt, WRWF immediate past president, is a candidate for South Walton Fire District Seat 5. Flynt is advocating maintaining the current "excellent level of service" for the fire district, while bal- ancing the budget with- out drawing from conti- gency funds or raising taxes. "We need to say, 'are we doing this the right way?"' Flynt com- mented. Zuma Banks report- ed excellent success with the Sept. 25 Lin- coln Day event. $40,000 was collected, and the event netted $25,000, which will be put into the community to help elect Republican candi- dates, she announced.

CVHN Dental Clinic now taking Medicaid In its seventh year of serving the commu- nity, Children's Volun- teer Health Network (CVHN) is continuing to expand its mission of enhancing the lives of uninsured and un- derinsured school-aged children in Okaloosa and Walton counties. As of September 2012, CVHN had facilitated more than 9,900 medi- cal, dental, vision and mental health care pro- cedures since inception in 2005 and has now taken another step to- ward serving more chil- dren in the community. The CVHN Dental Clin- ic in Santa Rosa Beach, which opened in April 2012, will now be seeing children who qualify for Medicaid. "CVHN has worked diligently over the past several years to find a solution to the over- whelming dental care needs of our uninsured and underinsured chil- dren. There are nu- merous children in our community who qualify for Medicaid, but are unable to gain access to dental care due to a very limited number of Med- icaid providers in our area. We are thrilled to now be able to expand our dental services to children who qualify for Medicaid,' said Zach Billingsley, CVHN's ex- ecutive director. CVHN will continue operating in its origi- nal mission of facili- tating access to medi- cal, dental, vision and mental health care for uninsured and under- insured children in Okaloosa and Walton counties. Billingsley said, "Our hope is that a combined effort from the local health depart- ments, CVHN's gener- ous volunteer providers, the CVHN Mobile Den- tal Clinic and our new CVHN Dental Clinic will allow all of our lo- cal children to gain ac- cess to the care they need and deserve. Our mission remains the same. This will simply allow us to reach more children who face is- sues gaining access to dental care and help provide some sustain- able income for our pro- grams." The CVHN Dental Clinic is a state of the art three-chair dental clinic headed by Dr. Stephanie Cook. Cook is a graduate of the University of Florida's College of Dentistry and has four years of den- tal practice experience, primarily treating indi- gent children. She has taken two mission trips to Guaimaca, Hondu- ras where she treated impoverished Hondu- rans in the mountain villages, orphanages and hospital of Guaim- aca performing various dental and oral surgical procedures. Children's Volunteer Health Network, Inc., HEALTHY HAPPY KIDS, is a faith-based 501(c)(3) organization, established in 2005 in response to Walton and Okaloosa counties' large population of low income families who are unable to access high quality health services due to the unavailabil- ity (or inadequacy) of insurance. CVHN seeks to enhance the lives of uninsured and under- insured school-aged children by facilitating free, immediate access to medical, dental, vi- sion and mental health services by utilizing a network of over 95 local physicians, dentists and healthcare providers. CVHN also operates the "Just for Grins" Mo- bile Dental Clinic that visits local elementary schools and opened the CVHN Dental Clinic in 2012. CVHN has facili- tated more than 9,900 medical, dental, vision and mental healthcare procedures since incep- tion. NO. 1 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE I, SECTION 28 Health Care Services Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to prohibit laws or rules from compelling any person or employer to purchase, obtain, or otherwise provide for health care coverage; permit a person or an employer to purchase lawful health care services directly from a health care provider; permit a health care provider to accept direct payment from a person or an employer for lawful health care services; exempt persons, employers, and health care providers from penalties and taxes for paying directly or accepting direct payment for lawful health care services; and prohibit laws or rules from abolishing the private market for health care coverage of any lawful health care service. Specifies that the amendment does not affect which health care services a health care provider is required to perform or provide; affect which health care services are permitted by law; prohibit care provided pursuant to general law relating to workers' compensation; affect laws or rules in effect as of March 1, 2010; affect the terms or conditions of any health care system to the extent that those terms and conditions do not have the effect of punishing a person or an employer for paying directly for lawful health care services or a health care provider for accepting direct payment from a person or an employer for lawful health care services; or affect any general law passed by two-thirds vote of the membership of each house of the Legislature, passed after the effective date of the amendment, -pravided-suchlaw-states-with-specificity-the-public-necessity-justifying-the exceptions from the provisions of the amendment.

O YES ONO NO.3 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE VII, SECTIONS 1 AND 19 ARTICLE XII, SECTION 32 State Government Revenue Limitation This proposed amendment to the State Constitution replaces the existing state revenue limitation based on Florida personal income growth with a new state revenue limitation based on inflation and population changes. Under the amendment, state revenues, as defined in the amendment, collected in excess of the revenue limitation must be deposited into the budget stabilization fund until the fund reaches its maximum balance, and thereafter shall be used for the support and maintenance of public schools by reducing the minimum financial effort required from school districts for participation in a state-funded education finance program, or, if the minimum financial effort is no longer required, returned to the taxpayers. The Legislature may increase the state revenue limitation through a bill approved by a super majority vote of each house of the Legislature. The Legislature may also submit a proposed increase in the state revenue limitation to the voters. The Legislature must implement this proposed amendment by general law. The amendment will take effect upon approval by the electors and will first apply to the 2014-2015 state fiscal year.

It also would amend Article XII, Section 27, and add Sections 32 and 33, relating to the Schedule for the amendments. (2) In certain circumstances, the law requires the assessed value of homestead and specified nonhomestead property to increase when the just value of the property decreases. Therefore, this amendment provides that the Legislature may, by general law, provide that the assessment of homestead and specified nonhomestead property may not increase if the just value of that property is less than the just value of the property on the preceding January 1, subject to any adjustment in the assessed value due to changes, additions, reductions, or improvements to such property which are assessed as provided for by general law. This amendment takes effect upon approval by the voters. If approved at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, it shall operate retroactively to January 1, 2012, or, if approved at the 2012 general election, shall take effect January 1, 2013. (3) This amendment reduces from 10 percent to 5 percent the limitation on annual changes in assessments of nonhomestead real property. This amendment takes effect upon approval of the voters. If approved at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, it shall operate retroactively to January 1, 2012, or, if approved at the 2012 general election, takes effect January 1, 2013. (4) This amendment also authorizes general law to provide, subject to conditions specified in such law, an additional homestead exemption to every person who establishes the right to receive the homestead exemption provided in the Florida Constitution within 1 year after purchasing the homestead property and who has not owned property in the previous 3 calendar years to which the Florida homestead exemption applied. The additional homestead exemption shall apply to all levies except school district levies. The additional exemption is an amount equal to 50 percent of the homestead property's just value on January 1 of the year the homestead is established. The additional homestead exemption may not exceed an amount equal to the median just value of all homestead p ty within the county e propty issue s coated calendar yearimmediatlyeceding January 1 of the year the homestead is established. The additional exemption shall apply for the shorter of 5 years or the year of sale of the property. The amount of the additional exemption shall be reduced in each subsequent year by an amount equal to 20 percent of the amount of the additional exemption received in the year the homestead was established or by an amount equal to the difference between the just value of the property and the assessed value of the property determined under Article VII, Section 4(d), whichever is greater. Not more than one such exemption shall be allowed per homestead property at one time. The additional exemption applies to property purchased on or after January 1, 2011, if approved by the voters at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, or to property purchased on or after January 1, 2012, if approved by the voters at the 2012 general election. The additional exemption is not available in the sixth and subsequent years after it is first received. The amendment shall take effect upon approval by the voters. If approved at a special election held on the date of the 2012 presidential preference primary, it shall operate retroactively to January 1, 2012, or, if approved at the 2012 general election, takes effect January 1, 2013. (5) This amendment also delays until 2023, the repeal, currently scheduled to take effect in 2019, of constitutional amendments adopted in 2008 which limit annual assessment increases for specified nonhomestead real property. This amendment delays until 2022 the submission of an amendment proposing the abrogation of such repeal to the voters. O YES O NO NO. 5 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE V, SECTIONS 2, 11, AND 12 State Courts Proposing a revision of Article V of the State Constitution relating to the judiciary. The State Constitution authorizes the Supreme Court to adopt rules for the practice and procedure in all courts. The constitution further provides that a rule of court may be repealed by a general law enacted by a two-thirds vote of the membership of each house of the Legislature. This proposed constitutional revision eliminates the requirement that a general law repealing a court rule pass by a two-thirds vote of each house, thereby providing that the Legislature may repeal a rule of court by a general law approved by a majority vote of each house of the Legislature that expresses the policy behind the repeal. The court could readopt the rule in conformity with the public policy expressed by the Legislature, but if the Legislature determines that a rule has been readopted and repeals the readopted rule, this proposed revision prohibits the.court from further readopting the repealed rule without the Legislature's prior approval: Under current law, rules of the judicial nominating commissions and the Judicial Qualifications Commission may be repealed by general law enacted by a majority vote of the membership of each house of the Legislature. Under this proposed revision, a vote to repeal those rules is changed to repeal by general law enacted by a majority vote of the legislators present. Under current law, the Governor appoints a justice of the Supreme Court from a list of nominees provided by a judicial nominating commission, and appointments by the Governor are not subject to confirmation. This revision requires Senate confirmation of a justice of the Supreme Court before the appointee can take office. If the Senate votes not to confirm the appointment, the judicial nominating commission must reconvene and may not renominate any person whose prior appointment to fill the same vacancy was not confirmed by the Senate. For the purpose of confirmation, the Senate may meet at any time. If the Senate fails to vote on the appointment of a justice within 90 days, the justice will be deemed confirmed and will take office. The Judicial Qualifications Commission is an independent commission created by the State Constitution to investigate and prosecute before the Florida Supreme Court alleged misconduct by a justice or judge. Currently under the constitution, commission proceedings are confidential until formal charges are filed by the investigative panel of the commission. Once formal charges are filed, the formal charges and all further proceedings of the commission are public. Currently, the constitution authorizes the House of Representatives to impeach a justice or judge. Further, the Speaker of the House of Representatives may request, and the Judicial Qualifications Commission must make available, all information in the commission's possession for use in deciding whether to impeach a justice or judge. This proposed revision requires the commission to make all of its files available to the Speaker of the House of Representatives but provides that such files would remain confidential during any investigation by the House of Representatives and until such information is used in the pursuit of an impeachment of a justice or judge. This revision also removes the power of the Governor to request files of the Judicial Qualifications Commission to conform to a prior constitutional change. This revision also makes technical and clarifying additions and deletions relating to the selection of chief judges of a circuit and relating to the Judicial Qualifications Commission, and makes other nonsubstantive conforming and technical changes in the judicial article of the constitution.

Geoff McBride announces campaign on crowd-funding platform Geoff McBride, is a local Santa Rosa Beach resident who was a part of Team XTina on Sea- son two of The Voice. He is also a former Arista Records recording art- ist that has collaborated with numerous artists and traveled the world performing. Since late 2006, he has been performing at local venues in the Walton County area, including The Old Flor- ida Fish House, The Ocean Club, the former First Note Music Hall, Schooner's, The Boat- yard, 723 Whiskey Bra- vo, and others. He has also performed at local events like the Emer- ald Coast Children's Advocacy Center's gala, Panama City Beach Seafood and Music Fes- tival, Covenant Hospice gala, Arts Quest, Share the Shelter Fest, 30-A Songwriter's Festival and numerous private events, including a din- ner with Morgan Free- man benefiting ECCAC this summer as well as the upcoming Chautau- qua Winery Harvest Festival, Crowdfunding is the fans' chance to be a part of making mu- sic from the ground up. Fans can reserve pre-release downloads, CDs, t-shirts, videos, concert tickets private events, hanging out with McBride in the studio, etc. Essentially, they are not donating to a project, but are mak- ing a pledge and receiv- ing unique perks from the artist. The budget is not only going towards the album, but to paying musicians, photogra- phy, graphic design, duplication, promotion, radio play, mechanical licensing in the U.S. and other countries. A lot more goes into bringing music to the world than just the al- bum these days. They are going to release it in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Holland, France, Japan and many other coun- tries. The producer (and co-writer) of the album is Trammell Starks. McBride just performed on his soulful remake of Summer Breeze, which can be found at www. trammellstarks.com. The album will be re- corded both in Santa Rosa Beach and in Al- pharetta, Ga. As McBride started to hone this project, he knew that Tram- mell was the perfect person to collaborate with. When they spoke about it and told Starks where he wanted to go with the album, they both were on the same page. Both of them have been greatly influenced by the sounds of soul, jazz and world music and are bringing those inspirations to this al- bum. It is easy to be a part of this project. Check out the link below, choose perks, complete the pledge and then pass along to others. The more people know about this project, the better chance they have to get it fully funded.

This prohibition does not apply to an expenditure required by federal law, a case in which a woman suffers from a physical disorder, physical injury, or physical illness that would place her in danger of death unless an abortion is performed, or a case of rape or incest. This proposed amendment provides that the State Constitution may not be interpreted to create broader rights to an abortion than those contained in the United States Constitution. With respect to abortion, this proposed amendment overrules court decisions which conclude that the right of privacy under Article I, Section 23 of the State Constitution is broader in scope than that of the United States Constitution. O YES C NO NO. 8 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE I, SECTION 3 Religious Freedom Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution providing that no individual or entity may be denied, on the basis of religious identity or belief, governmental benefits, funding or other support, except as required by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, and deleting the prohibition against using revenues from the public treasury directly or indirectly in aid of any church, sect, or religious denomination or in aid of any sectarian institution. O YES OCNO NO. 9 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE VII, SECTION 6 ARTICLE XII, SECTION 32 Homestead Property Tax Exemption for Surviving Spouse of Military Veteran or First Responder Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to authorize the Legislature to provide by general law ad valorem homestead property tax relief to the surviving spouse of a military veteran who died from service- connected causes while on active duty or to the surviving spouse of a first responder who died in the line of duty. The amendment authorizes the Legislature to totally exempt or partially exempt such surviving spouse's homestead property from ad valorem taxation. The amendment defines a first responder as a law enforcement officer, a correctional officer, a firefighter, an emergency medical technician, or a paramedic. This amendment shall take effect January 1, 2013. C YES C NO NO. 10 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE VII, SECTION 3 ARTICLE XII, SECTION 32 Tangible Personal Property Tax Exemption Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to: (1)Provide an exemption from ad valorem taxes levied by counties, municipalities, school districts, and other local governments on tangible personal property if the assessed value of an owner's tangible personal property is greater than $25,000 but less than $50,000. This new exemption, if approved by the voters, will take effect on January 1, 2013, and apply to the 2013 tax roll and subsequent tax rolls. (2) Authorize a county or municipality for the purpose of its respective levy, and as provided by general law, to provide tangible personal property tax exemptions by ordinance. This is in addition to other statewide tangible personal property tax exemptions provided by the Constitution and this amendment. O YES D NO NO.11 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE VII, SECTION 6 Additional Homestead Exemption; Low-Income Seniors Who Maintain Long-Term Residency on Property; Equal to Assessed Value Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to authorize the Legislature, by general law and subject to conditions set forth in the general law, to allow counties and municipalities to grant an additional homestead tax exemption equal to the assessed value of homestead property if the property has a just value less than $250,000 to an owner who has maintained permanent residency on the property for not less than 25 years, who has attained age 65, and who has a low household income as defined by general law. D YES O NO NO. 12 CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT ARTICLE IX, SECTION 7 Appointment of Student Body President to Board of Governors of the State University System Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to replace the president of the Florida Student Association with the chair of the council of state university student body presidents as the student member of the Board of Governors of the State University System and to require that the Board of Governors organize such council of state university student body presidents. C YES OCNO A Referendum Authorizing Economic Tax Exemptions For Business Expansion Shall the board of county commissioners of this county be authorized to grant, pursuant to s. 3, Art.
