Goodbread and his nephew Robert Keeling leased the land from the family cor- poration, setting up GTF Paintball and Amelia Shotgun Sports. "We opened in July 2007 with a provisional clubhouse and sporting clay range only," said Goodbread: "This was followed by the erection of our tblubhuse, skeet and trap ranges in the fall of 2007 and we have con- tinued to improve our facilities since then.",.

"As a woman. ,1-think it's empow- ering when you hit that bird," said Linton, referring to the clay target hit with her 20-gauge Beretta, "It's a lot more fun than cards!" she added. The club supports three sporting clay ranges, two skeet fields, a trap field, two five stands and two FITASC courses -- or "Federation International de Tri Aux Armes Sportives de Chasse," European. sporting clays. It is the only club in .Nassau or Duval County to offer all these courses, says Goodbread. The clubhouse features welcome area and a small store for purchas- ers in Amelia Island. Jacksonville and Georgia, and its proximity to 1-95 brings in visiting shooters on their way to South Florida or returning to. points north. Goodbread is very glad to have world-class shooter, course designer and instructor John Woolley as gen-, eral manager and resident instruc- tor. "Having John here has helped us greatly. We pride ourselves on making shooters and guests comfortable here and helping them have a good time." Karol Linton very much enjoyed her shooting lessons with Woolley.

Inc principal Joey Mandepe insisted his firm was not responsible for the unit and proposed .design change. "Mr. Hallman. we are reasonable and accept responsibility when it is ours," he wrote "This design change is not our responsibility. I'm sure a . meeting between the parties can resolve this issue as it has done in the past. I'd prefer not to waste any more time or money. Let's meet and get this issued resolved to the county's satis- faction." 'Hallman said the purpose of his letter was to inform the contractor of the county's intentions to modify the system. "We'r.e a long way. at this point. from .actually filing arbitration," he said..

Following a tWo-partFlorida Times- Union series outlining accusations of corruption, civil rights abuses and theft against the sheriff's office, Seagraves said he would refrain from further com- ments concerning the FBI's ongoing investigation into the alleged miscon- duct, according to a press release.

I i f 'TEi Volunteer Ed Deely pr'epiares to deliver Meals on Wheels for the Council on Aging of Nassau. : Driver logs 16 years for Meals on Wheels .For the News-Leader On Thanksaivine Day Ed Deely and his wife, Barbara, shared a meal at the home .of a friend The Council on Aging of Nassau thinks that is just as it should be, as he has,been serv- ing meals to a great number. of the COA's Meals on Wheels clients for over 16 years. He has been delivering Meals on Wheels the longest of all the volunteers and even brought in another volunteer,- Tom Moody, who has only one less year of service. These men,and others like themuse their own car, their own gas; their own precious time. They are everyday heroes one day each week.when they deliver Meals on Wheels as COA vol- unteers. . "It doesn't take a heck of a lot of time two hours at most it's been nice, I've enjoyed it," says Deely with a smile.'. In 1994 the Deelys moved here. from Broward County when he retired from working for AT&T and they found,the 'perfect house after becoming familiar with the area through camping at Fort Clinch. When they saw an article in the News-Leader asking for vol- unteers, Deely called COA, agreeing to be a volunteer driv- er on a part-time basis. Sometimes his wife would join him on the deliveries, bringing a little bud vase with a bloom on holidays. Deely says', "It .was right down my alley. A great job. A feel-good job. Alabor of love. Some want to talkwhen you deliver, others don't They are all very recep- tive to the people who come in and serve them a hot.mell We check on them- we kind of knw t heir health issues alfer Sa While of driving, so we make sure they are doing OK- very simple. All are easy to get along with and very glad to see us as their Meals on Wheels driver.. It's something I really like to do." Meals on- Wheels is more than just lunch or dinner. Volunteers also deliver a big helping of caring and com- panionship a high point in an otherwise lonely day for many* of the COA clients who are liv- ing alone. Deely says he likes to serve these folks in honor of his mother and father who have passed away. "And we're not * getting any younger .either," he.says with a wink. "It's just something I like to do, serv- ing somebodythat is older and shut in. Helping somebody out another human being whose. -health is not that good. ... It. does me as much good as the guy receiving it." Deely received the 2010 Elsie Harper Volunteer of the Year Award: Volunteering with Seniors from the city of .Fernandina Beach/Nassau County Volunteer Cente., pri-( sented this past spring Last year COA's Meals on Wheels volunteers delivered 43,734 meals. If requested,' they also bring a bag of dog chow or cat food for seniors with pets'- one home even gets a bag of bird seed so they don't feel obligated to share their people food. This is a part- nership with MealsonWheels 4pets. Drivers also deliver to Soup Train recipients, for sen- iors unable to be served yet by Meals on Wheels, in part- nership.with Barnabas and the. Coalition for the Homeless of Nassau. Debbie Davis, COA nutri- tion supervisor, says, "I can call Ed up if I need him and he always comes. He has deliv- ered hot meals every day of the week at one time or anoth-. er. ... Really, all my drivers are so giving they all help me out whenever I ask."

December 21, 2011 NEWS News-Leader EOC Continued from 1A server room. He said the unit is work- ing as it was designed and approved, and if county staff believes otherwise, they need-to inform the contrac- tor so that it can investigate and respond accordingly. "To simply .replace the single 10-ton unit with two completely different units without the engineer of record's knowledge or approval is curious and irre- sponsible," Mandese wrote. The commission is con- sidering an emergency pur- chase of two 5-ton air cooled Liebert DX split systems at a cost of $65,000 to modify the existing systems at the EOC. The problems, Mandese contended, arise from the county's end the county maintenance staff not liking the system chosen and approved by the EOC staff, problems rooted in county personnel changes and the . county insisting on many changes late in a project that he described as "piecemeal" and a "moving target." Mandese said that while the mini-splits HVAC system in the server room has had issues, these units were requested, reviewed arid approved by the county. Records show the Nassau County Commission approved a change order for $16,958 on June 18, 2009 to install the system. The change order was one of many requested by the county, said Hallman. All told, the county processed 36- change orders totaling $368,475, bringing project costs from under $2 million to nearly $2.4 million.. The county, Mandese said, added the units. as a means of redundant cooling, which was pot required in the: initial requests for pro- * posal or the parties' contract. He alsopointed to an out- standing payment of $7,000 owed to his firm for a heating issue resolved almost one year agp a balance he would like settled by Dec. 31. "Changing out a working unit.without notice or expla- nation is highly unusual and could beconstrued as unjust enrichment," he wrote. "That, coupled with the intentional withholding of 'ithe mo(,riiy due us. rnake_ uis q. sli;,nri t-' actions on the', county's part." Mandese said despite his firm's willingness to work Switch the county, it is unfair to develop new design require- ments and incorporate them now.. "We'd be happy to assist. the county, but will not' accept any responsibility for-: changes made two years after the project was com- pleted." gpelican@fbnewsleadTr.com MOVING? LOOKING TO BUY?

Jail, fine for derelict vessel A Yulee man was sentenced to 60 days in jail and one year of probation as well as fined $1,965 for illegally dumping a derelict vessel in Nassau County. Daniel Ray Thomas, 26, Was charged with third-degree felony dumping in May after the Florida Fish and Wildlife Con- servati6n Commission received a call from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office that a boat had . been dumped in the water at Wilson Neck Boat Ramp in Yulee. FWC Officer Tim Shearer responded to the complaint and saw the 1968 15-foot Thunder- bird-pleasure craft.on a:mud bank with the bow beginning to sink. The Florida registration was still visible. "I wasn't able to contact the owner to determine if the reg- istration'had been transferred. .However, I did have a witness who saw the boat being .dump- ed by the suspect," Shearer said. "Thomas had left town, but the fact that he set the ves- sel adrift in the water and never registered it in his name gave probable cause that he intended to abandon it.", Shearer met with the state' attorney and filed charges against Thomas for illegal dum- ping in excess of 500 pounds, which is a third-degree felony. . Thomas was later arrested on the warrant and pleaded guilty to dumping the vessel. He was ordered to pay for the costs of removing the boat from the water. "This is a prime example of what it can cost people who dump. vessels that they no longer want," gaid Capt Richard Moore qf the FWC's Boating and Waterways Section. "Abandoned and derelict vessels can pose safety and nav- igational hazards as well as become eyesores in Florida's beautiful waterways,"' Moore said.

Challengers Charlie Corbett and Sarah Pelican rode a communal wave of anger and frustration in con- vincingly defeating incum-* bents Susan Steger and Eric Childers. So the question remains: How will :he new- look city commission con- duct itself in the face of divi- sive community issues iand.a disenfranchised citizen ' The existing commission- er likely to become a swing vote-is Jeffrey Bunch.

PERRY News-Leader The design department for the world's largest manufactur- er of paper bags is located at 96076 Chester Road in Yulee. Duro Bag Manufacturing, based in Florence, Ky., has been in the bag business since 1953. The company manufactures bags of every style, color and size. Almost all of.the employees in the Yulee office are survivors of the S&G Packaging plant (for- merly Terminal Bag), which closed its doors in 2000. Duro purchased S&G assets in 2002. Environmentally conscious, the company is proud of its "green" bags made from recy- cledpaper. Yulee graphics manager Tom VanBeek is encouraged. that some cities are choosing paper over plastic in their gro- cery stores. "The trend seems to be going back to paper," said VanBeek. "It's the best thing for the environment Paper is made out of trees, after all, and trees are a replenishable item." Once the graphics team completes their design, a nega- tive plate is made and shipped to one of four plants where the bags are manufactured and printed. "We design bags for thou- sands of companies," said VanBeek, including McDon- ald's, Wendy's and many gro- * cery stores.

December 21.2011 NEWS News-Leader More than a bell ringer HEATHER A. PERRY News Leader "This is my first year as a bell ringer and the generosi- ty of people is overwhelm- ing. So many people say, Thank you for doing this' and I'm saying, 'Thank you for your donation,'" said Rick Dobbs, who became a Salvation Army bell ringer as an extension of the work he does'with the Sons of the American Legidn Post 54. "I joined to honor my grandfather, a World War I Marine'and my father, a World War II Navy man who served aboard LSTs and saw the landing at Normandy," said Dobbs, Although he did not serve. in the armed forces, Dobbs feels a keen obligation to honor hot only his family members, but all men and women in the military. "Anyone with a dad or grandfather who served may join (the Sonsof the American Legion)1 after they've been screened," he said. The S.A L helps the'. American Legion with their four Sw t pillars: Veterans Affairs and Rehabilita- tion, Dobbs National Security, American- ism and Children and Youth. It wis these pillars that led Post 54 to aid the Salvation Army Hope House. by collecting food and cloth- ing for the families in need it assists. Dobbs says becoming a bell ringer is an extension or continuation of that effort because.the Post sponsors the location in front of the island Walmart. . Dobbs also volunteers at the weekly bingo games held at'Post 54 where proceeds are donated to multiple Nassau County charities. "I also make.bi-monthly deliveries to the VA Hospital in Lake City. The S.A.L deliv- ers toiletries, personal hygiene items, food for the Hospice Center Family, Kitchen and the Client Living Center Kitchen," said Dobbs. "The Post now sponsors a monthly bingo game at the VA Hospital. It's so funny to see this herd of wheelchairs coming to the hall but they really enjoy it. It's the high- light of their month." Dobbs encourages any- one who has time to volun- teer in the community and to help veterans. "What you receive back is so much more than you can imagine," he said. Dobbs moved here from Atlanta in 2000. His wife, " Debbie, ig also an active vol- unteer, working with the Post's Women's Auxiliary. The couple enjoys the quiet peacefulness of Piney Island. They have two sons. Duane lives in Jacksonville and Jason lives in Blacksburg, Va. with his fianc6 Casey and their two- year-old son Oakes. , To learn more about the Salvation Army bell ringer program call 321-0435: To learn more about American Legion Post 54 call 583-4597. type@fbnewsleader.com POLITICS IN BRIEF AN. .

After four heart surgeries from 1994 to 2005' including treatment for an aortic aneurism and a replacement aortic valve, a routine blood test in 2006 showed Joe, 66, had a blood disorder. "When I heard leukemia I was happy it. wasn't going to be my fifth heart surgery," Joe says lightheartedly. A typical white blood cell count is between 4,000 and 10,000. At the time of his diagnosis, Joe's was 156,000. ' Joe's oncologist prescribed Gleevec, a 'tar-i get" drug that inhibits the abnormal proteins that cause chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). In three weeks his white cell count was down to 6,000. Joe refers to Gleevec as a "miracle drug." Invented and patented by Dr. Brian Druker, the drug was approved for use by the FDA in 2001 and for use in children in 2006. Gleevec provides stable remissions for many newly di- agnosed CML patients., " Joe knows that research and Gleevec made his remission possible. Joe says people before him have contributed to LLS making the discovery and the use of Gleevec possible. He now firmly believes that it is his responsibility to help generations after him by funding more ground breaking research with LLS. "Hopefully" Joe says, "one day there will be no more blood cancers." Anne Reaven, senior manager pof Donor Development at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) says research is allowing them to take something as- horrible as a cancer diagno- LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA SO CIETY" fighting blood cancers sis and start to make it a thing of the past. She adds drugs like Gleevec are also proving effec- tive in treating other chronic illnesses. LLS is a leader in making these drugs avail- able, Of 39 new cancer drugs approved by the FDA since 2000, 19 were approved as treat- ments for blood cancer patients, and many of these were advanced with LLS support, Reaven says. Joe, who lives on Amelia Island with his wife Drenda, says Gleevec not only extended his life, but preserved his quality of life.. "I've had zero chemotherapy, zero radiation. I have a full head of hair and I really haven't had any side effects," he says. A team effort It is the drive of those working and volun- teering for LLS that also has touched Joe's heart. Drenda started running for Team In Train- ing to raise money for LLS. Joe recalls a pre- race pasta dinner before Drenda ran a half marathon in San Francisco. As he approached he could hear the cheering and yelling of vol- unteers welcoming race participants, Joe was touched. . Orenda and Joe VijOk'support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and are inspiring others to do the same. / ,, "I teared up and started to cry," he says, He recalls saying 'I'm alive because of you. I take Gleevec' "Seeing this many people devoted to a good cause for all the right reasons was inspiring," he says "'It wias the most moving moment of my life I think. I decided then and there that Drenda and I ha'dtido much, much more for LLS." Inspiring giving That 'doing" has come.in the form of fund-- raising, Not only is Joe's story inspiring but his willingness to give is as well. Alreadi-generous givers, the Joe and Drenda Vijuk fbldbtiofh existed before Joe's diagno- sis. Buiitprtio&0of the foundation's money now goes to LLS to fund blood cancer research and provide education and patient services in the relentless pursuit for a cure. This year the couple is pledging a $25,000 gift. If LLS raises $250,000 the Vijuks will in- crease their donation.to $50,000 and if LLS is able to raise $500,'06, the Vijuks will increase their giving to $250,000.

SPORTS EDITOR TOM'WOOD , CHAIRMAN DINK NESMITH PRESIDENT Coiqasunity N I Newspapers, Incorporated A newyea Well, we're coming to the end of a tumul- tuous year in local politics, one that was unprecedented in our city's history. Never before has there been one like it, and the one upcoming should be just as compelling. If you enjoy political theater, get your front row tick- ets now. There is no need to chronicle the city com- mission's missteps over the past 12 months; all of us are aware, acutely, of what's happened. It's been a philosophical tug-o-war, citizens on one end of the rope, the commission, key staff members and two interest groups on the other. The elections, as they usually do, ended the game, the citizens pulled the commission, the staff members and the interest groups into the mud hole. Elections, like all contests, have winners and losers. The winners are easy to list - the candidates, their supporters and the peo- ple of Fernandina Beach. The list of losers, at least in this election, is long and somewhat subjective. For me, though, there are three. that stand out: The fantasy regarding fall elections and increased voter turnout In the first primary the turnout was roughly 25, percent, an increase over the last several years, true, but not a significant increase, and given the'leveli of voter frustration, well, I was hoping for higher. Next year the turnout number will sky- rocket, after all, city elections will coincide with those for president, members of the U.S. House of Representatives, U.S. Senate, state representative, state Senate, county officers and other local races. Prediction: city races, r of political theater along with important city issues, will be buried by the sheer number of candidates and corrupted by partisan politics. Not what the framers of our charter had in mind. . Forward Fernandina, and its little brother "musical DEMATE chairs," was also a loser. In our city's history has there AND ever been a more expensive. TACKLE proposal so little discussed, but yet so forcefully champi- oned and so roundly and Ron Sapp thoroughly rejected? To para- phrase Churchill, never have ' so many commission incumbents sacrificed so much for so little . . Interest group control of the political . decision-making process was a major, major loser, thankfully. For the last three and a half years, since 2008, we've had a surrogate 'com- mission, content to dothe bidding of a "shad- ow government," a few key players some, who see our future as Key West north, and some responsible for and committed to the Forward Fernandina plan. Hopefully,.this . sorry era of:surrogate commissioners and "shadow government" is over. bo, what's next; what's the next act in our local political theater? Well, I don't know about, you, but I hope a whole bunch of things get ' put back on the table. I'm looking forward to a real debate on individual elements of Forward Fernandina. How do we complete the city's, What I'm proud of A few weeks ago, after the general elec- tion, a former elected official told me that I needed to "care about our city" I was natu- rally taken by surprise. It was inferred I did- n't care, about our city because I saw things differently than.them. The comment upset ,me.

I love Fernandina Beach it reminds me of the small central Florida town I grew Sup in during the. 1960's.

Danny and Bonnie Lawhorn Fernandina Beach For ourchildrens sake I have worried about the state of this country for some time now. This country has never been perfect, but we were once headed that way. Greed is now called "being fis- cally conservative." But worse than Carla Voisard Yulee GOPdebate If you hoped for something informative to come from the Republican debate on Dec. 10, you probably came away scratching your head. Ineffectual praise for each other, weak political rhetoric - nd fantasy about their humble beginnings didn't produce enough leadership information about the candidates to fill a tea (party) cup. The" Executive Branch of the government is so named because it is supposed to be headed by an executive; like some of the better, less corrupt American corporations. Nothing from the debate gave a feel- ing that any of the candidates could be trusted to run a large company. Looking at the candidates from the standpoint of an investor, the on? Something's hitting me, cutting me! Help! Someone do something! I fall over and hit the ground, shak- ing it at the same time. Help!! Something is dragging me away. Where are you taking me?

I will never see the family of hawks that I've seen every spring for years. "I will never see a clear blue sky again." . I write this as I've watched for months the 40 acres that are being cleared off of Amelia Concourse. I live off Nassauville but this backs up to my property. I feel that when a big project is in order and that large a property set to be cleared, that the 'surrounding property owners should be informed. I feel they should have the prop- LARRY WRIGHTrflHE DETROIT NEWS er time to make sure their property isd edtlydefined so no trees are cut down and clearing is done on their personal property. It's sad to see all this cleared. There were so many animals that called it home as it will be years before trees start to grow back again. Stacey Tappan Fernandina Beach Fxitup I read a few weeks back about Bank of America, sticking the city for,the cleanup of property thatlit owns. Not surprising, considering the mind set and attitude of the 1 percent. Well, here's another facet of their "I dop't give a damn" policy towards the rest of America, and Fernandina Beach in particular. I was riding -down Eighth Street and glanced over at the Bank of America, hereis what I observed: The landscaping facing Eighth Street is falling apart The "retaining wall" holding every- thing up is made of wood that appears to be left over from the days of Spanish occupation! There are chunks missing, pieces with nails sticking tip on the sidewalk and other rotted pieces about No one in the bank can see this? - The situation will probably stay status quo until someone is injured, then they will spend more money on lawyers to defend themselves than ' what it would cost to just fix it! C'mon, Bank'of America, try being a "good neighbor" for a refreshing change! Tony Daniels Fernandina Beach Tolerance for dissent Thanks to the News-Leader for providing robust commentary from readers regarding the yearlong debate over our city's future. Their voices selectively ignored by city leaders, and denied a logical oppor- tunity for referendum, taxpayers resorted to Voice of the People and the ballot box. It is instructive that many yearn only for harmony of opinion and accommodating discourse about the important issues of our day. However such are not necessarily the sounds of representative gov- ernment Often strong voices, dis- sent and confrontation are the real sounds. Try a New England town meeting for example. What many see as compromise is simply to agree with their position. That's what leaders of our dysfunctional federal Congress mean by "reaching across the aisle." Let's all hope that our new city commission can turn a leaf in the New Year with a more tolerant and responsive ear to the inputs of all our citizens. Tom Robertson Fernandina Beach portion of the waterfront? What is the future of the library? The post office really? And I'm hoping some worn-out things get taken off the table, things like a public beach access tax, and the repeated threat of expand- ing residential rentals along the beach. At some point decision-makers have to realize that the debate is not about property rights, but protecting and preserving the integrity of residential zoning, a concept that makes us dif- ferent from other, essentially tourist destina- tions. Arid I'm hopeful that the McGill lawsuit nightmare goes away no more appeals. One of my mother's favorite TV shows was "I Love Lucy," and in one episode I remember Ricky saying something like this, "Luuuucy, Luuuucy, you've got a lot of splainin' to do." Well, on a few issues, the commission still has a lot of "splainin'" to do: Why are we spending $800,000 to open Alachua and Front Street? Oh, and who benefits from that, really? Do we really need a stormwater tax? Why hasn't there been an agreement between the city and' county commissions concerning the library? Why are city budgets still really budgets for the whole island when it comes to recreation and public safety? All of these things and more, much, much more, have been the subject of non-debate, non-discussion and inaction over the past three and a half years. I'm looking forward \o that changing. I'm looking to the new year and the political theater to come. I have my seat and the curtain is about to go up. Popcorn, please! Ron Sapp.is a foriner city commissioner WEDNESDAY.

Cut into pieces and enjoy! my columns I get unex- pected follow-ups that enhance my life. My recent column on finding and cracking local pecans was one of those. I happily wrote about the local pecan trees shed- ding nuts on our streets that are there for the taking. In the following days a number of people proudly told me that they followed up on my hints and nabbed some for them- selves. Great! I'm happy to help! And what goes around comes around, or so they say. Not only did I lead some new delicacy, wild and free WILD on our island WAYS in the fall, but I was led to myown Pat pecan wind- Foster- Tuiey fall. A long- time local couple, Danny and Nancy, emailed me with news oh their own pecan grove right on Amelia Island. They've got 15 pecan trees in their back- yard, shedding nuts like crazy, and over the years have worked out different ways to harvest, crack and clean them. Did I want to come over and learn how they do it? Of course! * So one morning by pre- arrangement I showed up at their house with my brown bag of raw,-uncracked pecans and my camera, ready to learn something new. And boy did I. For one thing, it was amaz- ing to see Danny and Nancy's backyard. Thirty years ago their new backyard was a vacant field in an area of Fernandina then known as "Egans Meadows." They des- perately needed shade. And they knew that pecans make good shade trees, with a bonus. After researching the matter, Danny selected a dozen and a half pecan seedlings of a few different varieties and started their backyard grove. Now, 30 years later, the liecan trees shade the yard and every other year the pecan nuts fall like rain. This year, as we have all noticed with the pecan trees downtown and the acorn trees everywhere, is a "mast" year,' when abundant nuts cover the ground. Picking them up, for me, is a stoop and crawl sort of matter, moving slowing on the ground from one pecan cluster to the next. It's back- breaking work, if you did it for long. But no, Danny does- n't break his back. What he does is push a "Bag-a-Nut" roller down his lawn, and the' nuts (and also, alas, various sticks and twigs) get drawn into a bucket that is easily emptied on a tarp for sorting later. Then there's the matter of cracking the nuts. For me, this has always been a labori- ous process, involving a tradi- tional nutcracker and lots of' patience. An individual pecan might take me a couple of minutes to crack and remove the meat. Well, you guessed it Danny and Nancy have found a way around this too. Here's where their institution- al nutcracker, designed for " walnuts, comes in. It's attached to Danny's work- bench with clamps, and nuts are poured into.it, a large * crank is turned and out the other end stream cracked pecans. But the meat and shells 10 K ~ -,clW *c , still need to be separated and a bit of handwork is required no matter what. But if you have a "Goodie Gitter" like they do, no problem! This lit- tle hand tool does for pecans what a little plastic deveiner does fori shrimp. It takes some practice though, and luckily Danny and Nancy were willing to train me a bit. Before too many pecans had passed through my hands I got the inkling of the knack to whittle'off bits of shell, gently, :,* steadily, until the meat is revealed. With the years of practice Danny and Nancy have, a pecan can be shelled in seconds. For me it was a bit longer, but still much simpler than the old nutcracker method and easier on the hands too. Then the fun part starts. How to' use the many cracked delicious pecans? Here's where Nancy's expertise comes in. Over the years she has found that people just love her "chewy cake," sort of like pecan brownies without the chocolate..The recipe that Nancy uses is given here its original source.is-unknown but at this, point after all these years I think it should be called 'Nancy's Chewy Cake. I left Nancy and Danny's house that morning with far more than a new knowledge about pecan processing. I also had gained a stomach full of chewy cake, my own "Goodie Gitter? and my bag of pecans all cracked open for me ready to ply my new skill on. And I can already start imagining the wonderful batch of my own chewy cake yet to come. Pat Foster-Turley is a zoolo- gist on Amelia Island.

December 21, 2011 NEWS News-Leader Local care for injured sailor ANGELA DAUGHTRY News-Leader Due to swift coordination by local and federal rescue and maritime agencies, a Filipino sailor from an international cargo ship was delivered safely from the Port of Fernandina to a local hospital from an inter- national cargo ship on Dec. -14. The M/V Onego Bora, a Cyprus-registered cargo ship, made the unscheduled stop to deliver the injured sailor to the' closest point for medical serv- ices. The unscheduled emergen- cy call to Fernandiia Beach was made in the early'hours of Dec. 14, according to William Davis, vice president of operations of Amelia Maritime Services. Davis said hewas impressed by the quick coordination by several agencies on very short fiotice for an operation that would normally take days, to. coordinate.

The ship wason. an empty-ballast trip to load export bulk cargo, Davis said. Jacksonville and Fernandina, Beach were the nearest ports at the time of:the incident, Davis said. . According to Davis, the cargo ship's master coordinated with United States Coast Guard. Sector Jacksonville Search and Rescue, and a USCG flight sur- geon via VHF radio for medical assistance. It was determined, howev- er, that the man's condition was not life-threatening enough to risk rescue. by helicopter at night, nor were sea conditions -conducive for safe transfer to a boat from the nearby shore. "It was determined the Port 'of Fernandina would be the most efficient place for this operation to take place," Davis .wrote, "due to she short transit. distance from sea and the abil- ity to coordinate the call on short notice." The cargo ship's owners contacted Amelia Maritime around 7 p.m. on Dec. 13, Davis said, to'arrange an emergency port call.. to land the sailor ashore for immediate medical care . According to Davis, Amelia Maritime coordinated with the ship's master via e-mail and satel-, lite phone, and the USCG Sector -Jacksonville command center for emergency provisions tb allow the.vessel to make an unscheduled call to the Port of Fernandina, .'

Fernandina Pilot Capt'Brian Seuter boarded the cargo vessel- offshore and assisted the ship's 'master with navigating the ves- selinto the Port of Fernandina, Davis said.

Kinsey recovers from heart attack during Reindeer Run ED I-iARDEE "FortheA\'eous Leader. . The anst thing Walt Kin se remembels from his 13-mile Reindeer Run is glancing at his watch with just a block to: go and thinking: This isgoing to be my fastest half- marathon ever. S He has no memory of what followed until he awoke. the next day, staring in disbe- lief at the ceiling of a Jackson- ville hospital's intensive care unit . He doesn't remember col- lapsing frbm sudden cardiac arrest, fewer than 200 steps from the finish line. He can't recall the urgent efforts of -paramedics to.shock his heart back to life and stabilize him for a trip to -Baptist Medical Center"Nassau nor the heli- copter flight to Baptist in Jacksonville. He never saw the runners who dropped to their knees and prayed for him while the life-or-death drama played out, amid a backdrop of a fes-, tive new Christmas race on a bright Saturday mortling at -Main Beach. He does know this first- hand: "I'm glad to be alive." He is thankful for everyone who helped him. And he is glad to be a runner. That was one of several factors that remarkably came together on the morning of Dec. 3 to help save Walt Kinsey's life. 'The odds were really in his favor that day," says Fern- andina Beach Emergency Medical Services Chief Fino Murallo. Most victims of sud- den cardiac arrest are not so - lucky: "The average survival is 6-7 percent." Kinsey, 61, a retired secu- rities attorney from Washing- ton, D.C., who now lives in Jacksonville, has been a run- ner most of his life. He turned to distance running in the last 2 1/2 years, including three marathons (26.2 miles each) and foUr half-marathons. He lifts \,'.ights. watches his weight. A few years ago he went through a battery of medical .'sts ,, -istablish a bas-lirn - "My wife mad- mr" lost '25 pounds, g., his chIlester,.,I Lund ie c.,ntr .l. had r_-Lul ar routine checkups During his, -runs rthri was no dizziness. no shoIrtness of br':aih - nothing 1, ir',licat that some- thiin night be- wi ong \Vh,:n a neighb...r t,:,l'li hirri jb'-,tLl :a ne-' half-iairatuh':n inr F- ariandinra Be'ach. hl- sigrind up As a mnmb-r ,if N''orthl Fl'rida's 2 W ith "C'o.nrin- Galloway training group, he had -run here before.

A phutograph take n at mile three shows youthful looking runner in black and red, smiling tI.ward I lhi cam-, era. e About an hour and 54 min- utes after the race began, he was back at its Main Beach staging area. The course had taken hinm ..ui Norti l Fletcher. Avenue anri.l back. thren through F.,.rl Clinch State Park and Old Town Fernandina and back again. "The last thing I remem- ber was seeing the finish line, looking at my Garmin and thinking, 'Wow I'm going to have a PR (personal record) right here,' so I want- ed to kick it in," Kinsey said. When he went down, strik- ing his head on the pavement, -he was only 10-20 yards from a rescue unit that race organ- izers had arranged to be sta- tioned near the finish line. Manning the unit were para- medics Jared Lamar and Marcus Carter, who work out of Fernandina Beach's 14th Street fire-rescue station. Sorcha French, an emer- gency room nurse at the Fernandina Beach hospital, had already finished the half- marathon ahd knew that her time of 1:35:19 had made her the third-place woman overall. During her post-race cool- do:wrn she" had ,kingly gl eet- ed Lamar and Carter. whi.m n she knew "I said, 'Parame- dics! I need a praerricdK! I " just finished a'half-maratlhon'" She left the finish line area for a while and was walking back'fdr a p)si-rurtn massage when ac:mrnpani,.n saw Kin- sey collapse. "He said, 'Oh my G...-1. a guy ii-l fil looked, andr h was tac -'' rin." As she ran toward him, she again called for the para- medics this time, for real. ""He was lying there, bleed- ing. I wasn't sure if he had tripped. P. .ple said. he fell. I knelt down, and I realized he was unconscious. I'was checking for a pulse, and the, thought went through my head, This is going to b,6 worse than a fall.'" Kinsey was in full cardiac 'arrest. Quickly. bh_ paranle- dics moved the rescue unit into position to give'them access to equipin-rni .irnboard The off-duty nurse advised them: No pulse. Lamar rolled the,fallen runner onto his back and Carter began CPR chest com- pression. Aboard the rescue unit was a portable, high-tech device that combines a heart monitor and a defibrillator. Lamar attached two elec- trodes to Kinsey's body and saw on the screen what he'd hoped to see that Kinsey's condition should respond to a, jolt of electricity through the electrodes. In the language of paramedics, he had a "shock- able rhythm." "He basically got his life back there on the ground when we shocked him," Lamar says. Even for the *paramedics, who are trained to stay focused on their mis- sion, "it can be pretty emo- tional." Murallo, the EMS chief, says there is a brief window of time when the odds are high- est for successfully resuscitat- ing a victim of sudden cardiac arrest and leaving the person without permanent damage. With every minute that pass- es, the odds of survival drop PHOTOS BY ED HARDEE/SPECIAL Reindeer Run co-director Susie DeMille, paramedics Jared Lamar and Marcus Carter and EMS Chief Fino Murallo, top, along with the type of device the paramedics used to "shock" Kinsey's heart Race organizers presented all of the crew who responded that day with Reindeer Run T-shirts and'gave Kinsey a finisher's medal "He earned it," DeMille said and a membership in Amelia Island Runners.

The golden window is 3-5 minutes. Kinsey was within the window. "It's hard to say because there was so much going on, but I'd guess it was 1 1/2 to 2 minutes," French says. "It seemed a lot longer." Lamar and French resumed CPR as additional units arrived with support crew from the 14th Street sta- tion to help stabilize Kinsey and move him from the street to the rescue unit. Gone are the days when the goal of an ambulance crew was to rush a patient to the ER before treatment could begin; now, patients are stabilized before they receive a slow, safer ride to the hospital. It was 18 minutes from the first call for paramedics until the rescue unit departed. And while the rescue crew was increasingly hopeful that their patient would survive, the RUN Continued on 3B = 1888~89sarr---- ------s OUTDOORS /TIDES " OUTDOORS WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 2011/NEWS-LEADER Mrozek the NSFA angler of the year "We really had a great year," said John Hartrich, Nassau Sport Fishing Association president.

FWCupsbaglimit Recreatibnal anglers tar-. geting red drum in northern Florida can soon take home more of the popular fish, thanks to .a change approved Nov. 16 by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission., The decision came during the first day of the two-day November commission meet- ing in Key Largo. The changes take effect Feb. 1 and include follow- ing: Create three manage- ' ment areas for red drum (the northwest, the northeast and the south) instead of one statewide management area; Increase the number of red drum that a recreational fisherman can take per day in the northeast and northwest regions of the state, from one to two red drum; Establish a statewide . vessel limit of eight red drum; Limit.the number of red drum that can be transported on land to six red drum per person. These rule changes are the result of a successful man- agement strategy that began in 1989,'when the species was considered severely over- 'fished.- 'This is our version of hav- ing a listed protected species and being able to take it off that list. This is a success story," said Commissioner Brian nYablonski about the increased recreational fishing opportunity. "if ever there was a moment to give back, this is it." A 2009-10 red drum stock. assessment completed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife . Research Institute showed' that red drum escapement rates (the proportion of fish surviving through age 4 rela- tive to the number that would have survived to that age if there were no fishery) have 'been consistently above the FWC's 40-percent manage- ment goal in the northern regions of the state. Other recreational red drum rules will remain the / same, including a slot limit of 18 to 27 inches and a one-red- drum bag limit in the south- ern part of the state.

RUN Continued from 1B crowds at the race site had no idea. A group of student volun- teers from the FBHS Little Women, who had been assigned to direct runners to the finish line and cheer them on, were among the first to know what happened. With the rescue work going on in the street and vehicular traffic soon blocked, they kept their composure and directed run- ners to head onto the grass and then back to the road to. finish their race. "It was a traumatic situa- tion but they handled it beau- tifully," race co-director Susie DeMille says. "I am so proud of them. They kept doing what they needed to do to help everyone stay safe." DeMille directed specta- tors to stand back and told parents and their children to head for the children's play. zone. Robin Lentz, vice presi- dent of the Amelia Island Runners club, realized that Kinsey's race number would yield his identity but his race bib couldn't be found. However, race competitors have another identifying marker, a timing chip worn on the shoe. "He was already loaded onto the rescue unit. I yelled, 'Get his chip, get his shoe,'" Lentz says. She ran with the shoe to the race-tim- ing truck, where a computer. scan yielded Kinsey's name, the missing number, 278. and from there, contact inkfrma- lion. , "1 called his wife and said very calmly, "There's been an. accident, we don't know what' happened, your husband has fallen We need for you to come this way' His wife is a wonderful lady, she was so' calm and collected "As San-. dra Kinsey drove to Fernap- . dina Beach; Lentz rode in the front of the rescue unit to the local hospital. "I didn't want himi to be tip there by him- ..self:" And as DeMille was urg- ing spectators tomove back, she saw one group of about six to 10 runners that she decided should stay. "They said, 'We're kneel- ing here, praying," DeMille recalls. "They weie on their knees, very distraught, hold- ing hands. I said, 'You're per-' fect where you are.' I think they knew they c .uldn't help . him, and the best thing thiey could do was to: pray to God for him. And obviously, the people who did.lhelp him . worked iniracles that day." Doctors operated on Kin- se, after he was helic,,pter:-d to Jacks.,rville. "They found that I had 80 pcicent block- age in rxt,' art'-riis,. he. :i.ys "They put in iwo stnts,. and they :-ay [I'n going t,. be fine." Thl y als' saiI I hal his strong heart wasone reason he survived. "My doctor said, 'Don't let , anybody tell you not to run.' The running helped save my life as well. I feel very fortu- nate my doctor said I will have a full recovery and won't have. any issues or disabilities. He said, your strong heart and the good, quick response basically saved your life." He also said a heart attack or cardiac arrest would have happened eventually anyway, perhaps not in a place where expert emergency care was so close at hand. , "He's a walking miracle," says Murallo. "He couldn't have 'picked' abetter spot to have this. happen: Rescue -,, units today are hospital emer- gency rooms on wheels." The EMS chief says every- one, runners or not, should. have a stress test to look for hidden conditions such as , Kinsey's especially people older than 40. ."It was a hidden thing that I wasn't aware of," Kinsey says. "You may think you're fit, but if you'don't know you have blocked arteries, it could come on you the way it did me." Says Carter, one of the first-responders who helped save his life: "He's.one of probably less than 2 percent who go into sudden cardiac arrest and walk out of the hospital and live their lives as if nothing had happened." Kinsey hopes to resume running again in a few weeks, after he's cleared by his doc- tor. One race he definitely plans to do next year is the second annual Reindeer Run half-marathon.

"4 . .eventhough I didn't finish," he said with a laugh.,He has met DeMille, who visited him in the hospital, and met with rescue workers Thursday to thank them "and hug their necks." ."You guys are my heroes," he told them. He is grateful to them and to everyone who helped that' day, and afterward. "The com- munity of Fernandina Beach has been wonderful to me, .everyone has been extremely friendly and helpful," he says. "It makes you feel good." And after an encounter with death, he has a renewed appreciation for life. "I wert home from the hospital on Tuesday (Dec. 6), and the next day I showered, I walked my dog, I drove to Starbucks, got coffee and' walked to Memorial.Park. I drank my Starbucks, with the Wind and the sun on my face, looking at the river, and I thought: Life is good. You don't know how good, some- times, until you deal with something like this.

Located on Centre Street, Island Time Premium Yogurt has become a popular meet, greet and get a treat stop. So what is exactly is yogurt? It is a fermented milk product. The word yogurt comes from the Turkish and most probably from a verb that means to curdle, coagu- late or thicken. Yogurt goes back to long before Christ. In the ancient culture of the . Indo-Iranians yogurt mixed with honey is referred to as the Food of the Gods. Yogurt has been popular in a wide variety of cultures thatrecog- nized its healthy attributes. Yogurt is a perfect snack, meal FROM or dessert 'THE alternative. PORCH It is packed with live and " active cul- Dickie tures and is Anderson low in calo- ries and high in calcium. It tastes good too! So who is behind this won- derful addition to Centre Street? Anh Marie Wiseman, and Jeff Kemp,,friends and -business partners, had a vision, did the research and opened Island Time Premium Yogurt in September of this year. More than 12 years ago Wiseman, then living in Colorado, started a search to find the perfect place to live. The search included the entire country and the winner was? Amelia Island. In choos- ing the perfect place for their new yogurt shop, Wiseman and Kemp considered St. Augustine and Jacksonville .but quickly settled on Centre Street and the historic build- ing that is now theii home. ",-,.,. We are enjo(ying getting to! know local residents, building relationships with the local business community and we are very excited to be another enjoyable experience for the tourist," shares Wiseman. This just isn't any yogurt. The shop offers 14 flavors comprising two to three sor- bets, two to three tai ts and eight sweet and creamy yogurts.
