The morning after the Board of Clay County Commissioner's Tuesday, Nov. 22, decision to deny Debusk's plans to build 65 high-priced homes, more than two dozen members of the semi-private club who opposed him were told their mem- berships had been cancelled. "Some of them have been members 20 years," said Ravines resident William R. Lyons. "He has kicked us all out." Lyons, a member of the golf club since moving there in 1994, was an outspoken critic of the proposal to build the homes along Black Creek. SLyons estimated about 40 golf club members- whose names appearedon a 188- name petition opposing the development- lost their playing privileges at the club. Lyons said Debusk is citing a "non-sup- port" passage in the membership agree- ment. Lyons maintains the passage was intended for members who didn't pay their dues. Debusk confirmed he cancelled the memberships, saying it was his right under the agreements they signed. "The truth is they don't support the club," said Debusk, estimating only about 20 percent of the club's revenues come from members. He said he plans an aggressive adver- tising campaign to drive more customers to the 18-hole course. defeat me in my land application I have to look for other revenue streams, so I have to seek more public plays... to cover whatever losses we've had from the re- voking of the memberships."

Some residents raised serious concerns about what is already heavy traffic on the subdivision's main road, but other resi- dents maintained traffic is not an issue and the additional homes would not sig- nificantly increase in the number of cars. There was also a split among residents on whether Debusk would reinvest his profits into the facility and whether the "Because the residents have chosen to, .COMMISSION continued on page A-9 _~___ ~ __ __;_ ___ L 17:5I --:: I Section A-2 CLAYTODAY.BIZ December 1, 2005 'The sooner Huntington steps in, the faster grades step up.

Deputy Mark Colburn was investigat- ing a home burglary when he ap- proached a mobile home on Duckweed Place and "detected a suspicious odor coming from an enclosed trailer parked against the home," said Sheriff's Office spokesperson MaryJustino. Sev- eral bottles of suspicious liquid were also found outside. Inside detectives later found items such as Sudafed pills and iodine, which are common methamphetamine ingre- dients,Justino said, and led to the arrest of Roger Snyder, 32. Snyder is charged with manufacture of methamphetamine,Justino said. No finished methamphetamine was found at the home, she said.

But Lassiter, sitting for the first time as chairman of the Clay County Commis- sioners, proceeded nonetheless to tell Com- missioner Christy Fitzgerald she would not be appointed to any of the 19 committees, either as a chairman or as a member. "I have agonized over this audit and what it says and what I might say for hours," said Lassiter, who offered his regrets but no apologies for his decision. "The investigation and the report were done both professionally and in a much timelier manner than could have been performed by anybody from the outside," Lassiter said. He declined to comment on the specifics in the report, agreeing with Com- missioner Harold Rutledge that, "for every .person who has read it there's a different opinion on what it says." "The only thing that I will comment on at this time is to say that when the opportu- nity came to provide the type of leadership and accountability in the county manag- er's position that is needed to move this, county forward into a true charter form of government, we as a board past and pres- ent failed miserably," he said. "I truly be- lieve that Mr. Price hit the nail on the head when he said that those decisions were made as a matter of comfort..." Addressing Fitzgerald as "the commis- sioner that bore the brunt of this report," Lassiter said she remains innocent of any wrongdoing thereportmay imply. "However, until that due process is com- plete and the end result of that is to your satisfaction or not, I cannot envision any scenario that would allow you to be in a position of le.adet shipin this county." He .apologized foir ih impact il at would have on the other commissioners, but said the board chairman would serve as vice chairman on the committees. . Lassister also apologized to Price for the stress he was put under to complete the A report a report commis- sioners wanted done as r quickly as possible. They had hoped for an internal Christy Fitzc report instead of hiring an outside investigator in part because the lat- ter would take months. Lassiter praised the county's workers as being dedicated and working in the best interest of the county's citizens. The commission voted 4-1, with Fitzger- ald dissenting, to accept the report His comments came moments after Fitzgerald read prepared remarks about Auditor Mike Price's report detailing his internal investigation into an illegal dump- ing scandal commissioners have been dealing with for months. FitzgeraldrippedPrice'smotivessayinghe wasextremely opinionated and didn't come close to being "convincing or persuasive." She also blasted his investigative meth- ods,pointing out several areas of the report that Price either ignored her explanation about or never let her respond to. Fitzgerald said she only met with Price once, listening for 70 minutes of the 80- minute meeting while he spoke about how he did the report. "In my interview with auditor Price he specifically told me thatin his opinion I did nothing wrongand that the entire Board had no reason to know or suspect wrong- doing," Fitzgerald said. "Yet, his report, which came out only a couple of weeks after our interview, reveals totally different conclusions and makes multiple insinua- tions about my own conduct" FitzgeralMd also made ])ointei:d ivill;a1s about Commissioner George Bush, S including that he had overdue in- fluence onPrice and thathe tried to Manipulate Public Works employ- ees. As commission chairman, Bush was a strong advocate of using Price 'to conduct the report instead of finding an outside investigator. Fitzgerald said the report, for ex- 1 ample, says Bush was unavailable during much of the 2003 audit, but 'rald the report holds the entire board re- sponsible for the audit not being implemented. "Don't those findings seem consistent," she said. She also said Price told her county, firefighters might have worked on Bush's campaign on county time, but that was left out of the report. Bush did, not comment directly on Fitzgerald's statement. But he made the motion to accept the report and forward it to State Attorney Harry Shorstein for pres- entationtotheClai Col unis grand jury. Fitzgerald also denied ever authorizing any county employee to w\ork on hi r1p iop-, erty while on company time. "The work was performed on the week- ends when I assume people are on their own time," she said. SShe said no one indicated they were pressured by former Public Works Direc- tor Arthur Ivey to do the work. Ivey and County Manager Bob Wilson resigned in March after state and FBI investigators raided seven county dumping sites. "I never directed county crews to do any- thing," she said.

In the middle, the stratus clouds also were red and the stratocumulus.showedjust enough puffi- ness to set themapart from the others. Below all this were the trees and the water. The sheer beauty was irresistible. My mind was turned loose. I suppose we all have wondered from time to time if there are other planets and other civilizations in the universe; I cer- tainly have. But I wonder, if there are, can they be as beautiful as this one? Or as full of marvels and mystery. If there are other civilizations, in what ways are we alike or different? There are times when I get caught up in dreams and fantasies.I remember several. . vea rsago lwasattending perfonnanceof the Orange Park Chorale at Island View Baptist Church.

Would they be awe-struck by the beauty of the performance? Would they be puzzled as to why all those people were sitting there, apparent- ly basking in the sound? Might they ever find the sounds offensive? But let's get back to Earth. This world is undeniably beautiful. But What are we, its dominant species, doing to enhance that beauty? Oh sure, we build beautifulbuildings and surround them with lushlandscaping. But we also bomb other cities back into the Stone Age and destroy so much vegetation that we endanger our own existence. We use our planet's resources without a thought for what we will do when they are gone, as they soon will be. And we brutalize our fellow human be- ings withutter disregard forageandgender. In China, an elderly woman is delivered by her husband'and children to a funeral home for cremation. Fortunately for the woman, the funeral director was observant and found that the woman was still alive. The family's reason for taking her to be cremated? They could no longer afford her medical care. Much closer to home, inDuval, a young woman is killed when a driver, in a fit of road rage, forces her off thehighway.

Clay County is a charter county, go'v- erued bv a homertle charter The char- ter is reviewed ever\ four years by the CRC., which is composed of fifteen members. all appointed by the commis- sioners. The CRC is tasked with evaluat- ing weaknesses in government and recommending charter changes to be placed on the next ballot. The CRC last convened in 2002 about a vear before the 2003 audic report),aud recommend- ed no changes. essentially saving that the charter was su ong and count' govern- ment was operating efficiency. Some of the members of the 2002 CRC are also membersof die 2006 CRC- .Will the CRCdo the right thing? In nm opinion, the CRC seems more inter- ested in limiting the rights of citizens than in improving the structure of our government. Some of the first issues dis- cussed by the CRC include the following. Rescind term limits for commis- sioners(passed by 74' of ot-es in 2)00). *Rescind single-member elections (passed by 64"' of voters mn 20041. Add two additional a t-Li ge conimis- siouers(an attempt to undermi ne th cf- fectlveness of single-member election-).

This will stop the progress of grass-rooC) s citizens' groups; it w ill do nothing to stop spec al interest influence on ciuzen initiatives. There are three ways to amend the charter: the commissioners, the CRC. andcitizen iru itiaves. The only method being considered for revision is the one involving citizen participation. This does not bode well for citizens. Term limiitsandsingle-nmeiberelec- tions have not vet had time to take effect, so they cannot be blamed for the cun ent problems in our local government.

CLAYTODAY.BIZ December 1, 2005 Section A-4 'What a wonderful gift a sister I didn't know I had' By Kathy Roy and Bob Henderson, Staff I've known for all my 51 years that I'm adopted, adopted by wonderful, caring, loving people and I thank God everyday for putting them into my life. A few years ago; after their deaths, I decided Ijust wanted to know. Doctors al- ways want.medical histories, and I never had one. People talked about their her- itages, I wanted to be Irish but never knew. With the help of an attorney and the Internet, I found out a few things - names, death certificates, brothers' names. But I learned very little about my birth mother, Margaret Johns. I only knew. my birth name was Linda Kay Johns and my mother was 17 when I was born. I put the paperwork away, thinking that at least I knew something. A few weeks ago, I decided to get the paperwork out and read it again. I got online and found my brother's son in our hometown in Ohio. When I called him, he gave me his father's num- ber in New Mexico. I called him and the first thing he said was, "We've been looking for you." We had a nice conversation and I got some new facts; My mother died in 1969 at age 32 of breast cancer. He gave me the number of a younger brother whom I called. They asked if I'd talked to my sister, a sister I didn't know existed. She had been looking for me. My long lost sister, Mary Jane, was born 10 months after me. (Our birth mother had babies often includ- ing, at 13, a set of twin boys who died.). LETTER from page A-4 traffic lights.

Lutheran Social Services of Northeast Florida, part of America's Second Harvest Network of food banks, serves more than 400local nonprofitorganizations each year with food and personal items. But the need for donations is greater than ever this year. "Our resources are strained to the hilt," said-Tim Davis, director of LSS Second Harvest Food Bank. "Because of the needs of the hundreds of thousands of hurricane victims this year both direct- ly in the affected areas, as well as those evacuees stationed locally, we're in dire need of replenishment to help serve our local families." Jacksonville-based St.John & Partners Advertising & Public Relations recently held a food drive among its more than 100 employees to benefit the food bank, and collected nearly 350 pounds of food. "Holidays are about families, and our family at SJ&P came together to support this important local organization," said Dan St.John, Chairman and CEO of St. John & Partners. "We applaud the work of the food bank and encourage anyone with the means to step forward while the need issogreat." Donations can be made at the LSS Sec- ond Harvest Food Bank, 1502Jessie Street, Mondla thi oug1h Fridli from 7:30 a.m. ro 4:30 p.ii.. and Satiirda\ from 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Donors can also call 904 1353- FOOD to schedule a pickup. ---~- - -. ~ ~~I~~L I_ I~_- a ----k e -a w TnPromnrl1 12nn90 BEAR RUN from page A-1 ears as residents made it quite clear that they do not want apartments and would like the property to stay the way it is. "Of all the property along Blanding, why our neighborhood?" questioned an 18-year resident of Bear Run. "You don't need to choke us off at Bear Run. Our lives are invested in our property. Our lifetime investment is rolled into Bear Run, yours isn't." Tuesday night's meeting was notjust a presentation of this developer of the 16 units per acre sites. School Board mem- ber Wayne Bola and County Commis- sioner Pat McGovern also attended the meeting and offered a few words of ad- vice for residents. While McGoven pointed out that he could not take sides in the matter since it would be going before the Clay County Planning and Zoning Commission in January, he did warn residents to prepare themselves if they planned to fight the development. "As a judge I am precluded by law from voicing my opinion until the last presentation...is made," said McGovern. "The only evidence that will count (at the rezoning hearing) will be evidence that will be admissible in a court of law. It is not a popular vote decision, but what will be decided upon will be clear and compelling evidence. Something is going to go there. It is a matter of find- ing the best deal." Bola came prepared with statistics. Ac- cording to Bola, the new apartment com- plex would bring 89 new elementary school age children to Tynes, 27 new stu- dents to Orange ParkJunior-High and 46 CLAYTODAY.BIZ STAFF PHOTO BY TRISHA CORMENY Continental Properties Vice President Mark Gorman addresses Bear Run residents 'Tuesday, Nov. 29, about a proposed apartment development coming to Blanding Blvd. new students to Ridgeview High School. Each of these schools are already over ca- pacity with Tynes currently being 59 stu- dents over capacity, OPJH having 370 more students and RHS being already 500 students over capacity. "The additional students are not going to make the situation any better," said Bolla. "Those units are going to produce new children who will require seats at our schools." Comments regarding the fact that the developer may not have to pay all of the newly imposed school impact fees raised a flurry of questions regarding the cur- rent school system and how new students would stretch the limitations of the cur- rent school system. As Bola fielded nu- merous questions about Clay County schools in general and why students in .Bear Run are being bussed across the county to attend schools in other areas when schools are approximately two miles from the neighborhood, organizers Section A-7 of the meeting tried to bring the meeting back on track, saying that school issues should be e-mailed to Bola. Questions then turned to the effects of the proposed apartment complex. These concerns included everything from drainage problems to road widening questions to traffic problem top how qualifiedresidents wouldbe selected and even privacy issue. "It's hard to get out of-the neighbor- hood now," said one resident. "That many more cars trying to get out are not going to work." Developers responded to these ques- tions one at a time, often comparing the proposed complexes to their new devel- opment on Collins Road, The Springs of Orange Park. "We're very sensitive to the neighbor- hoods," said Don Coorhees, Construction Manager for the project "We're not going into this thing like a bull in a china shop." By night's end it was clear that the res- idents would not budge on their resolu- tion to keep developers out of their neighborhood even though Continental Properties has promised their new town homes will only add to the value to Bear Run rather than detract from it. "It's not a done deal," said Bradley Yorke, who presided over the meeting as mediator. "There seems to be a strong bond in Bear Run. We don't want to move. We want to stay here. We have a lotof am- munition we have not shown yet." Residents will meet again Thursday, Dec. 13, to decide a battle plan for when they face the Planning CommissionJan. 3 to state their case as to why the proper- ty in front of Bear Run should be left as Agricultural. * Summer Camp * VPK provider * Proprietary curriculum * State-of-the-art facilities ria.n; mnj, iar) 0 ;)' iLjfir Now enrolling Call today to schedule a tour TuTOR TiNE CHILD CARE I LEARNING CENTERS ARGYLE/ORANGE PARK 8510 Watermill Blvd. S.

IN -Wkm t Oakleaf K-8 to start with more than 50 relocatable classrooms By Debbie Israel Messer, Editor disraelwesser@jcpgroup.com1 FLEMING ISLAND The number of stu- dents estimated to attend the Oakleaf K-8 School now under construction on Planta- tion Oaks Boulevard keeps going up. And because that number changed be- tween October and November, Clay school board members couldn't take action at their November 22 public hearing on the school boundaries advertised. School officials heard from staff that the numberof relocatables once estimated to be 20, then44, has now climbed to an estimated 64 for the start of school August 2006. Assistant Superintendent for Support Services Mike Elliot explained to the school board that thenumberhadbeenreviseddue to the number of students already enrolled indistrictschoolsaswellasthenumberof ad- ditionalhousing units projected for the area. The new boundary revision will not meet all oftherequirementsnor- "This is a mnallysetfor community boun schools, one of those being that students will attend the school closest to them, in part to mini- mize busing needs of the district. With the new boundary, students will bebused across Schoolboundariestoanother school, according to Elliott There will be portions of the Cheswick Oaksarea that will be going to the Oakleaf School instead of going to Argyle Elemen- tary School (AES). Next year the district as I& d j will start construction of a new "W" ele- mentary school on the eastside of Branan Field in the OakLeaf subdivision. As a result of this boundary, students will survival face the prospect of pos- ary sibly attending four dif- S ferent elementary Vlke Elliot schools in four years, starting with WE. Cherry, AES, the new K-8 and then elementary "W" school. In addition, the previous boundary map had projected that some students at- tending Wilkinson Junior High would have attended the new K-8 when it opened, including some students very close to the school. Now there will be no changes to Wilkin- son's boundary, leaving students attending that school for the next school year. The only junior high school students that will attend the new school willbe coming from Orange ParkJunior High School who live within the stated boundary for Oakleaf. "This is a survivalboundary," said Elliot, as he described the 2006-07 boundary for Oakleaf School Elliott stressed that between growth and the class size reduction mandate there would have to be the increased number of relocatables. Increased portables now mean increased dollars spent on the project, which is now ex- pected to be 2.5 to 3 million in excess of the original estimated cost of $16 million. A portion of that increased cost will come due to the increased: busing and need to increase the paved drop-ff area. "There will be an estimated 28 buses needed for this school with some of them having 90 students on the bus," said Elliott. According to Superintendent David. Owens, the school may not start the year with a functioning gymnasium, as other needs are completed first "We never can seem to get caught up. We should have been building two schools out there now," said Board member Carol Studdard. The observation prompted a reply from Board member Charles Van Zant who said they had to remember that they had used the district's two-mill money in the past to construct facilities. "One mill of the two mill money is com- mitted to debt retirement of the COPS (Certificates of Participation)," said Van Zant who went on to say that now they are having to save up impact fees to pay for new construction. "We're having to save in- stead ofjust borrowing." The fate of the overpass at Oakleaf Plantation came into question during the discussion with board members asking about the timeline for the project Accord- ing to Owens, there are no immediate plans for the overpass because no agency has the funds to construct it. "There is not a single board member, or superintendent, who is happy with this," said Studdard. Board members re-set the public hear- ing for 7p.m. Thursday, Dec.15, to consider the new revision to those boundaries Board members selected Carol Vallen- courtas the board chair for the coming year and Charles Van Zantas the Vice-Chair. Val- lencourt, a 15-year veteran, has served as the chair of the board 3 times previously. Board members took action to approve their salary for the 2005-06 school year. The board's salary will increase from $30,232 to $31,450, a 4 percent raise. The salary is set by a state formula and will start December ..

Ca December 1, 2005 CLAYTODAY.BIZ Section A-9 COMMISSION from page A-1 new homes would detract or add to the present homeowners' property values. Miller said the project to build homes ranging from $500,000 to $1 million on 1.5-acre lots along Black Creek would only affected the No. 9 hole on the course and "would improve the community." But Commissioners sidestepped "inter- nal" issues like traffic and the golf course, focusing instead on whether the request- ed land-use change should be granted. The vote to deny the request was 5-0. Commissioner Pat McGovern said it was clear there is no room to expand the 435-acre subdivision, which in 1992 was approved for 477 lots. "We approved 477 lots (in 1992) and you have 477 homes. You are built out," he said. "I don't see us approving this." He said exceptions have been made for other subdivisions, but that was be- fore building actually began. Commissioner Harold Rutledge said if Debusk didn't know he could expand then "shame on him." Commissioners also said they would not approve any project that raised traf- fic levels on Green Road. Commission Chairman Glenn Lassiter said two near- by subdivisions were approved last year only after they guaranteed they would not affect the Green Road area. In October, the Planning Commission voted to recommend to Commissioners the project be approved if Debusk would guarantee a second entrance into the Ravines be made onto Green Road. Some residents were strongly, in favor of the proposal, saying it would give Debusk an opportunity to improve the facility and put money back into the golf course. "Building $500,000 to $1 million homes will do nothing but enhance the community," said Colleen Lord, a retired real estate agent who moved there 18 months ago. But others complained about De- busk's "dictatorial" attitudeand about his decisions since buying the course two years ago. Several residents at the Commission- ers meeting and at the Planning Com- mission commented on the poor condition of The Ravines' amenities., Lyons said the swimming pool has tiles falling off and a connected spa was filled with sand. An 18-hole.putting green called "The Himalayan" also has fallen into disrepair, he said. "We are not the Debusk family relief act of 2005," Lyons of 3764 Creek Hollow Lane said during the meeting. "We ask that you listen to the community and do what's right." The homeowners association also hired an attorney to speak at the hearing. Samuel Mutch raised Lassiter's ire when he demanded to have more than three minutes to speak and wanted to make an in-depth presentation. Mutch raised questions about the county's review process, which gave a qual- ified approval to Debusk's request, and questioned whether the soil along Black Creek was suitable for building homes. Several Green Road residents also spoke out against a plan to increase traf- fic, saying it was over capacity now. This is the second time Debusk has ap- proached the commission about the plan. Earlier in-2005 he came forward with a plan to revise 135 acres of the facility, but that was denied. This time the project would have only affected about half that amount In other action, the board: *Approved a rezoning request to change a parcel along Cou ni\ Road 220 near the Seaboard Coastline Railroad to commercial. Several residents of a near- by subdivision spoke out against the pro- posal, saying it would affect their property values and bring unwanted in- truders. But commissioners said commercial was the only likely use for the property. They said the owner would have to apply for a specific land use later and they could control what types of business go there. The owner said he did not know what type of business he would put there. The vote was 3-2 with Lassiter and Commissioner George Bush voting against the rezoning request. Granted Simon Properties, owner of the Orange Park Mall, permission to ex- pand three stores and add a fourth an- chor. Fitzgerald voted against the measure, citing concerns about too little parking even before an expansion proj- ect was allowed. Accepted an agreement with the state Department of Community Af- Sfairs that will allow construction of the Peters Creek Business Park west of Green Cove Springs along State Road 16. State officials delayed the plan from Reinhold Corp. for more than three years until it was revised. The state cited concerns about urban sprawl, commis- sioners said.

Clay Commission proposes joint bridge meeting By Greg Walsh, Managing Editor gwalsh@jcpgroundcomi GREEN COVE SPRINGS- Saying the Florida Department of Transporta- tion can't be trusted to watch out for Clay County's interests, the Board of County Commissioners is proposing joint bridge meeting with their St. Johns County counterparts. The proposal concerning the Outer Beltway came up during the Clay County commission's Tuesday, Nov. 22, meeting. "This is the front burner issue for ClayCounty," Commissioner Pat Mc- Govern said. "Ifwe miss this opportu- nity this will be a bedroom community for evermore because roads will have gone past us and we will have missed this terrific opportunity." Commissioners later unanimous- ly voted to have county staff develop a presentation "that shows the pros and cons" for Clay County of the Outer Beltway's proposed north and south routes. Once it's completed, Clay County will approach the St.Johns County Commission about holding.a joint workshop on the matter. McGo ern said it's time to look at the project from a more regional as- pect and consider how St. Johns County sees it, he said. He proposed the workshop be held inJanuary.

Section A-11 December 1, 2005 CLAYTOI)AY.BIZ- School Board appoints full-time attorney By Debbie Israel Messer, Staff disraelimesser@jcpgroiip.conm FLEMING ISLAND School board mem- bers changed their attorney's status from a part-time contractual position to that of a full- time district employee Tuesday, Nov. 22. Without comment or discussion, school board members approved a personnel contract for attorney Bruce Bickner. Bickner proposed becoming a full time employee in October after which board members asked him first to pre- pare a proposal and then later requested ajob description. As a full time employee, Bickner will be paid $132,000 per year and receive health insurance and other fringe bene- fits including retirement and leave af- forded to other administrative personnel of the district. The district will pay for legal and mal- practice insurance as well as membership dues in the Florida Bar, the Florida School Board Attorneys Association, and the Na- tional School Boards Association Council of School Attorneys. As a contractual part-time attorney Bickner was paid $9,000 per month plus. group health insurance. Bickner main- tained a private law practice in addition to being part time with the school district Although the new contract indicates the position is subject to the personnelpoli- cies and procedures applicable to adminis- trative personnel of the district, the position of school attorney was not posted as a vacancy after the creation and alloca- tion of the position The board also approved a contract with Daniel Delves for $36,000 per year. Delves, who has been sharing office space and legal secretarial services with Bickner as a private attorney, will provide "supplemental legal support services (i.e. secretarial/paralegal services)" for the school board attorney as opposed to using district staff for support. According to the State Board of Educa- tion's Rules for the purchasing of services, the district must request bids from three sources for the purchase or contract for services. This was a no bid contract. Bickner will give up his private practice to become the district's attorney starting December 1. Bickner will work for the school board, unlike other school district employees who work for the superintendent. Thejob de- scription for the position adopted by the board notes that while the attorney will provide legal representation and counsel to the entire district where a dispute or con- flict arises the attorney will represent the interests of the school board. Bickner's salary will make the position one of the highest paid public city and county positions in Clay County, compara- ble to the new County Manager Fritz Behring who will start $140,000 and the School District Superintendent who is cur- rently paid approximately $127,000. DCF grant targets Clay County homeless issue Special to Clay Today JACKSONVILLE-In a major step to pre- vent-the increasing problem of homeless- ness in Clay County, the Florida Department of Children and Families has awarded a $100,000 grant to the Salvation Army of Clay County. This money willbe used to help those in danger of being evicted from their apart- ments or losing their homes. The number of homeless people in Clay County increased by more than 11 per- cent from 2003 to 2004, according to re- search by the Emergency Services and Homeless Coalition ofJacksonville. The coalition estimates that nearly 800 peoplein Clay County were homeless atleast once during 2004, butadds this number may be three to four times higher because many never go to shelters for assistance, or go to shelters inJacksonville instead. 'This $100,000grantis a significantstep in fighting the growing problem of homeless- ness inClay County,"saidNancy Dreicer, dis- trictadministrator for DCFinfiveNortheast Florida counties, including Clay County. The $100,000 grant will be used by the Salvation Army of Clay County to help people in danger of becoming homeless by providing rent, mortgage and utility as- sistance on a short-term basis. "We appreciate this generous grant from the Department of Children and Families," said Major Alan Phillips of the Salvation Army in Clay County. Fami- lies and individuals at risk of becoming homeless may contact the Salvation Army at (904) 276-6677 to inquire about prevention services. As part of its 109-year tra- dition of helping the home- less and others who are less fortunate, the Salvation Army will be at several Clay County shopping centers, strip malls and grocery stores every day except Sundays from now through Dec. 24.

I Land Fashions opened its doors soft- ly, in fact there wasn't even a sign, but as one passer-by quickly found out the search was well worth it. Carrying every- thing one would need for a cruise to the Bahamas, I Land fashions offers a com- plete line of men's, women's and chil- dren's clothing imported from Hawaii, South America, India, Indonesia and the continental United States. "There was nothing of this nature here," said Russ Brummer, who hails from Key West. "It's kind of comfortable, laid back and at peace with the world." According to the 28-year veteran of the telephone business, I Land Fashions at 664 Kingsley Ave., Suite 105, was some-: thing thatjust "grew" when he decided to return from retirement and follow his wife to Flagler Hospital. "I neededsomething to keep me busy," said Brummer. "This has become a full- time endeavourer, but we're ready. Part of the excitement of owning one's own store, says Brummer, is the fact that you get to decide what to showcase. "We both talk it over and decide what we feel is trendy and fashionable," said Brummer about the Brazilian eveningwear, hand painted Indonesian sarongs and assortment ofjunior wear found inside the boutique. "We do our own buying and hand pick what goes in our store." According to Brummer, the name I Land Fashions comes from the Rastafar- lan idea of "we." "In the islands, "I" means you and me," said Brummer, who wanted to bring that sense of togetherness into his FIND A DOCTOR WHO SPECIALIZES IN YOU Charles L.

"When it comes to fashion, it's all about you. We want to extend the feeling of welcome and a laidback at- mosphere to our customers." Once unique aspect of I Land Fash- ions, says Brummer, is that instead of of- fering occasional discounts, the store will instead offer vacations for its cus- tomers. Through a deal with a local trav- el agency, patrons of I Land Fashions can be getting away to-Fort Lauderdale simply by having a customer apprecia- tion card stamped -by the cashier at checkout. Once 500 points have been ac- crued, I Land Fashions will send the cus- tomer and a guest to a weekend getaway in places such as Daytona Beach, Ft. Lauderdale and St. Petersburg. "If I can send you on a weekend va- cation, that means a lot more than a 10 percent discount," said Brummer. "Everyone needs to get some downtime and relax."

"I hope the event will raise a lot of money for the American Cancer Society and it's just a lot of fun to do this," said 17-year-old Michael Bird. "It's a good thing to be involved in. It helps people with cancer." Bird, along with his family and friends, came up with a way to get peo- ple involved with Relay for Life while celebrating the Christmas season at the same time. For $25 for one recipi- ent and $50 for two or more recipients plus gifts, Santa will drive up to a per- son's home in a fire truck, knock on the door and deliver a present to a lucky child or special someone the weekend before Christmas. "It wasn't too hard to plan," said Bird, whose father participated in a similar fundraiser up north as a firefighter. "We're hoping it will be a success."- Parents can drop off a gift for their child at the Bird home in Eagle Harbor by Dec.10 and arrange a time for Santa to stop by the following weekend, Says Susan Bird, Michael's mother.. "I think it's a great idea," said Susan. "It's notjust for children either. We'll do special requests. Right now, we can take many,'inany more requests.". . This fundraiser is the first of its kind in this area to benefit the meri- can Cancer Society's Flening Island Rela\ For Life sa\ the Birds, who are already arranging to take gifts around the island and even to a nursing home in Mandarin. "They do so much for people and help with so much stuff that I didn't even know about until I got down here," said Susan. "It's a very worth- while fundraiser." To have Santa deliver a gift to that spe- cial someone, call the Birds at 215-1747. STAFF PHOTO BY TRISHA CORMENY Michael Bird places a flier;about the fundraiser in a neighbor's mailbox.

Local artist donates latest proceeds to victims By Trisha Cormeny, Staff tcormieny@jcpgroup.com ORANGE PARK One local resident re- cently returned from a journey to Nashville, and came home bearing CDs for his fans to enjoy. "The whole CD is a collection of songs that came out of a 10 year relationship," said country music singer Steven Craig. "We're trying to break in the business." After successfully completing his third trek toNashville, Craig announcedproceeds from his latest CD titled That Kind of Man, willgo towardHabitatfor Humanity to ben- efitvictims of the recenthurricane season. "Ijust felt like they were doing an ex- tremely great thing forpeople," said Craig, who says his inspiration comes from singers such as AlanJackson that use their music to help people. "An artist can do great things to help a lot of people." Craig, like many artists in his field, began'hisjourney as a young boy following in his father's footsteps. "My dad always played guitar and Ijust kind of picked up where he left off," said Craig.."I was blessed." The up and coming artist, whose spe- cialty is country with a little bit of rock and roll mixed in, will soon have his own web- site by the spring. "We'regoing totakeeverythingtoawhole newlevel,"saidCraig."Itmakesyouworkthat much harder to achieve your dreams." Craig tells others searching to make it in the music business to research their dream and find out as much as they can about it before stepping out into the music world. "Someone told me along time ago it takes pira el. pa1uience. perIse\ e a iie, pas- sion and persistence,. said Craig. "To'suc- ceed oi0 ha\ e to work hard. Alot of times you have to work a dayjob and then you have to find it within yourself to continue to pursue that dream and you must have the drive to succeed."

He also expressed concern about some confusion in the public about the Outer Beltway, saying the beltway will only hap- pen if the two counties cooperate. "They have said categorically, FDOT is not going to build that road," he said. "It is going to be a toll facility either built by the Florida Turnpike Authority or some other public-private partnership." FDOT last month held public hear- ings on the proposed four-lane, 33-mile road that would connect at Branan Field-Chafee Road. Current projections set the cost at between $1.2 billion and $1.6 billion. Four proposed routes are under con- sideration, with two going more souther- ly before turning west and crossing the river on a new bridge built near Green Cove Springs close to the Shands Bridge. Two other routes would run more easterly and cross the river just north of Green Cove Springs at Popo Point. Commissioner George Bush said he would like for the counties to announce an overall support for the project, re- gardless of which route is chosen. "Any route is better than no route," he said. He also proclaimed St.Johns County i_ N :e'a SCHO New Acoustic Guitar $59 < wants a more southern route that crosses near the Shands Bridge. But Commissioner Harold Rutledge corrected Bush, saying that board dead- locked 2-2 with one abstention when it voted on which route it preferred. Rutledge said he wants to hear about the advantages and disadvantages of the north and south routes before mak- ing a decision. "I am very uncomfortable letting FDOT come in here and tell us where a super highway is going to be built in our county that affects our citizens, where they live, how they live, where they work," Rutledge said. "I think we need to be mas- ters of our destiny and we need to start moving forward on this. It needs to be built sooner than later." McGovern added each county needs the other's help. For example some sec- tions of the road in St. johns County might be built by private developers and lessen the impact on taxpayers. "Let's fully flush out those options," McGovern said, "because FDOT is not going to do that for us." He also suggested Commissioners consider putting a referendum question concerning the Outer Beltway on the 2006 ballot. Commissioner Christy Fitzgerald added she, too, feels this is Clay County's top issi i.

Before "I lost 109 Ibs." After Charlotte Taylor hearings on the issue have been poorly attended, yet polls from those hearings:. show a strong majority in both counties believe another bridge over the St.Johns River is needed. "I really feel we need to get a consen- sus from our community," she said. ,She also took a swipe at Bush, saying he has publicly stated he wants Clay County to remain "a bedroom commu- nity." Bush denied ever saying that. The board asked John Tabor, chair- man of the county Transportation Advi- sory Committee, to update them on the council's findings. "Major decisions are about to be made about the future of transportation and mobility in Clay County," and the com- mission needs to participate in those de- cisions, Tabor ,said. "We have an ioppor t unit to get a seat at the table in making those decisions, ensuring that those outcomes are in the best interest of our community." The Advisory Committee advocates thejoint meetings, Tabor said, to present a "united front" to state and national of- ficials who will decide on the project. The committee also said the two counties should issue a joint recom- mendation to the state Department of Transportation and the regional Metro- politan Planning Organization that proposes the best route for thebeltway and that a bi-county transportation au- thority be created. "We would really strongly suggest that the climate is ripe to engage St.Johns County in a discussion about these is- sues," he said.

"This was the biggest shot that I've made in my high school career so far", said Huggins. "It felt good when it left my hands", he added. The stage was set for Huggins heroics in the final minute as the two teams trad- ed leads several times in the final minute of the game. Clay trailed 37-34 following several turnovers when Palatka pressed the Blue Devil guards; they turned a one-point deficit into a three-point advantage. However, the Blue Devils were benefi- ciaries of some generous calls by the offi- cials down the stretch that incensed the Panther crowd. With 1:07 left in the game Palatka guardJR McRae was called for traveling but Clay senior Damon Pifer and Hug- gins missed three-pointers that would have tied the game, however, sophomore forward Lawrence Bates slipped in for an STAFF PHOTO BY HORACE DAVIS Marcel Huggins drills a three-pointer to give the Blue Devils the 39-37 victory. offensive rebound and was fouled on'the bound and he was fouled on his shot. shot. Bates made one of two free throws to cut the-lead to 37-35 and Palatka had pos- session with 0:19 left, but Pifer stepped in front of a pass, stole the ball and was fouled driving to the basket. Pifer stepped to the line and missed the front end of the one and one but sen- ior center Wannick Cime grabbed the re- Along with- the foul Palatka's Josh Miller was called for a technical foul so Cime was awarded four free throws and as the game had went to this point he missed 3 of 4 and Clay trailed 37-36 with 0:12 left. But they retained possession after the technical free throws. Following a timeout the Blue Devils passed the ball into Pifer who found Hug- gins moving forward and he delivered the game winning shot with his lefty stroke to send the Clay bench and Blue Devil faithful charging onto the floor, while the Panther players, coaches and fans berated the officials for the numer- ous foul calls down the stretch along with several no-calls they felt went their way. One coach's fortune was the other's misfortune as Clay head coach Gary Gartin talked about the win. "We were lucky to get the win. It was an ugly game but I'm glad we are on the up- side of the score. However, we must work better and take better care of the ball". Palatka head coach Willie Mitchell wasn't in a talkative mood but said, "We had that game, it was poorly played and the officials made some questionable calls down the stretch".

Fleming Island entered the second half holding a slim two-point lead but some hot shooting by senior guard Aaron Wilson who scored a game high twenty points led the Eagles who dominated play down the stretch to pick up their first vic- tory of the season. The game started as a defensive strug- gle, as neither teams offense could man- age to score many points. The first basket in the game came with 5:43 left in the opening quarter on a lay-up from Wilson. The Generals managed only four made shots in the first quarter and trailed the Golden Eagles 12-8 going into the second quarter of play. However, Fleming Island opened the second quarter on a 7-0 run to take a 19-8 lead with 4:16 left in the first half. Eagles center Justin Stokes scored five of his eight points to begin the quarter, spark- ing the run on offense. In spite of the Golden Eagles run at the beginning stages of the quarter, Lee climbed all the way back and tied the score at 24, they capitalized on numer- ous offensive rebounds to score second chance pqints. However, Eagles- point guard Bretton Woods scored as time expired in the first half on a fast break lay- up, to give the Eagles a 26-24 lead at the half. The Generals came out in the second half looking to put pressure on the Fleming Island guards; they employed a full court press. But the Eagles were able to break the press and started the quarter with a quick 5-0 run to increase their lead to 31-24. - Although the Eagles broke the Generals press early on it began to pay dividends later in. the quarter as they forced the Eagles into turnovers that result- ed into fast break points to cut the lead to only five as the third quarter ended, 41-36. In spite of the turnovers Fleming Island head coach Ivin Gunder was impressed the way his team took care of the ball, "We did a really good job han- dling their press tonight", he said.

The fourth quarter was all Fleming Is- land, as they again started the quarter with an offensive run, this time an 8-0 spurt. The Eagles' defense held the Gen- erals scoreless for the first five minutes of the quarter and forced them into many turnovers and rushed shots, ultimately leading to Fleming Island's victory.

": .... ' Middleburg is about to have a commemorative pictorial graphic for Year 2006. Town Square Graphics, Inc. project coordinator, Pat McFeely, will be calling on area businesses and organizations to develop a poster size, full.color, artist's rendering that will paint Middleburg in a moment of time. "With the lasting colorful graphic, it will depict the personality of the community in a unique and fun way," McFeely said. "This is a light way of looking at a very serious business, the business of promoting the community," said McFeely. The Caricature graphics accentuate points of interest in the community, such as churches, schools, pub- lic buildings, landmarks, historical sights and buildings as well as businesses. "Because of community pride and the Year 2006 depiction, we feel it is very important that all citizens receive a graphic," McFeely stated. "For that reason, we have made arrangements with the Clay Today to insert the commemorative rendering in each subscriber's newspaper." This will insure the most pos- itive distribution available. Additional renderings will be available from other organizations for ongo- ing distribution. Town Square Graphics, Inc., an Alpharetta, Georgia based firm, has been in business for the past eight- een years, and has created depictions of hundreds of communities all over the country. Town Square Graphics is a Dun and Bradstreet rated firm and a member of the Greater Atlanta Metropolitan Better Business Bureau, Duval Chamber of Commerce Member. Pat McFeely will be in the area taking over 200 photographs of the community to be used in the mak- ing of the graphics. Production time is ninety to one hundred twenty days.

However, the Raiders did a good job of identifying the open player and Ash- ley Nuss andNene Groyer got easy bas- kets in the paint, which opened play back up for Williams who drilled two - more three-point baskets and the Raiders.outscored the Devils 14-7 in the quarter and enjoyed their.biggest lead of the game at 33-28 with just over two iinu tes left. But Thyra Masalin answered with a five-point spurt to cut the Raiders lead to 36-33 entering the final quarter of play. The Devils opened the quarter with a quick 6-0 run, Haynes led the attack on die dt-fensii e end. dira, ing a charge and stepping into the paying lane foi steal. "Our game start with defense and rebounding, Courtney and Kayla did a great job on the boards and Tenise led the defense", added Moses. But the Raiders did not go away qui- etly, they fought back and a Ricks three- point shot tied the game at 39 and Williams again tied the game at 41.. However, the game came down to the defense of the Devils forcing late turnovers and controlling the boards. Hampshire hit a lay up to put Clay up for good, they had four opportunities at the basket and Hampshire's shot fell through after a scramble in front of the Lady Panthe keeper Krista Mathis with a shot to close the gap to 3-1. However, Mathis shut the door on the Raiders the rest of the night. Following Baucom's goal both offenses could not find the net again but the Panthers of- fense forced the play and kept Santa Fe pinned in their end-of the field. The offensive pressure ap- ., .4 plied by Ridgeview paid off When Si 1_klen ui>mpleted the, ;' hat trick. Senior forward Delta Pannell serf a corner pass over to Stricklen who again beat a Ridgevic surprised Raider goalkeeper Santa Fi and the Panthers held a com- manding 4-1 lead with 26:15 remaining on the game clock. SRidgeview added one more goal late in the game when Pannell and Stricklen pulled off a give and go. Pannell once again tried a corner kick but the ball went to Stricklen who then got it back to Pan- Raider basket. Orange Park fell to 3-3 and head coach Amanda Burden although dis- mayed with the loss saw some good things, "It has been a rough start but good things are happening. Tonight mental mishaps cost us this game, the defense they played should not have given us that much trouble but we forced to many passes", she said. The Devils improved to 5-2 after a- playing in a Thanksgiving Tournament at Terry Parker High that worried Coach Moses. "This was our fourth game in six days so we haven't had much practice time but the girls responded well and executed the game plan very good. I think we are turning the corner", he added.

Our immediate goal is moving forward to gain approval of the plan by the beginning of 2006. Keep in mind the overall goal from 2005 2024 is to create 10,000 more primary industry jobs in Clay County to lessen our dependence on Duval Coun- ty, to raise the average wage levels and grow the quality of Clay County's tax base. There is no quick-fix; instead we're looking at an aggressive long term steady focused job growth initiative. Different committees or task forces with- in the Economic DevelopmentDivision are and will be assigned to work on-real estate, workforce, transportation, utilities, education, local governmentreliations, community demographics and community assets as the foundation for attain- ing quality job growth goals for our community. There is a tremendous amount of opportunity within our community for achieving these goals. Moreover, we have a tremendous support base within the leadership of the Economic Devel- opment Advisory Board and the Chamber of Commerce that are committed to the plan and laying the groundwork for success. We'd like to count on your sup- port as well and look forward to working with you.

December 1, 2005 CLAYTODAY.BIZ Section B-6 Eagle Harbor junior tennis quietly growing larger By Horace Davis, Staff hdavis@jcpgroup.coin FLEMING ISLAND Director of Tennis James Catenis and the staff at Eagle Har- bor has quietly built a successful tennis program that runs year round on the ten- nis grounds at Eagle Harbor. Catenis, who is originally from Raleigh, NC and grew up in the program said, "Our goal is to bringjunior tennis in northeast Florida to a higher level as well as give ourjuniors the skills necessary to be successful student athletes". The program, which has been going strong for a year and a half has grown to over 200 kids and is still growing as more kids start playing at an early age and become more enthused with the game of tennis. "The success of the program is built in that we start the kids at a young age and get them progressively ready to play in local and United States Tennis Associa- tion (USTA) sanctioned tournaments in town and all over Florida", said Catenis. Local area high schools also reap the benefits of the program as seen atFleming Island High School whose h i)i tennis team made it to the state tournament last year, five of the six kids on that teamnhoned their skills at theJunior Tennis Academy. "I believe as we prepare the kids to be the best possible tennis players they can be, it also helps them academically be- cause of the discipline, training and at- tention to detail that goes into it. One parent even said, since her kid entered the program he has done so much better in school", added Catenis. The kids in the program regularly travel to tournaments together through- out the year and their daily training reg- iment includes tennis drills, conditioning and practice matches which gives them a competitive edge against other local jun- ior tennis players. In addition to the local tournaments the kids get a chance to play in, they also geta chance to watch some of the best-un- known professional tennis players during the Garber Automall Men's Professional Tennis Classic, which is held for eleven days every year during the month of May.

Garrard is more mobile, his arm is just as good as Byron's and he had a better pre-season, Garrard should be starting. Those comments have been attrib- uted to backup quarterback David Gar- rard, who has heard the whispers that he should be starting buthe has longstated, "This is Byron's team". Leftwich has also heard the whispers since taking over for fan favorite Mark Brunnell three seasons ago and he hasbeen very professional inhandling the situation.

" TheJ are cuiientilv .-anda-seemed to be hitting a playoff drive; Lefrv. ich had been throwing darts the last few weeks, connecting with veteranJimmy Smith, rookie MattJones and second year receiver Ernest Wilford. The quarterback and receivers were developing chemistry and Leftwich ap- peared to reading defenses better, while showing some signs of mobility al- though it looked awkward at times. Even with the progression Leftwich has shown, there are still some detractors out there griping about this or that; he holds the ball too long or when was the last time they scored thirty points in a game (twice in the last three weeks). Leftwich has been a warrior this sea- son; early on while the offensive line was still trying to figure things out, he took a beating. But he hung in there and made the pass or took the sack; Leftwich has not thrown an interception in over 100 of his last pass attempts. All while taking a beating as some NFL quarterbacks do. Byron has led theJaguars to eight wins this season, actually make that sevenbecause Garrard gets credited for Sunday's win Enter David Garrard who prior to the season was given a was given a huge sign- ing bonusjust for the time at hand. Yes, Garrard is more mobile than Leftwich but can he make the throws that Byron makes? Can he lead the team on a 90-yard drive down the field? Teams will have an easier time game planning or scheming on Garrard, he is more mobile than Byron but there is only one Michael Vick and he is in Atlanta. The Jags and Garrard may have caught a break with the timing of the in- jury, their schedule over their final five games is very favorable because they face four teams with losing records in Cleveland, Houston, Tennessee and the 49ers, but in the NFL bad teams some- times beat good teams.

The funds arose from an internal silent auction of furnishings from The Weaver II model at The Links at Fleming Island Plantation. Among the items were a big- screen TV and pool table, as well as living room, kitchen, and bedroom furniture. "All of us have been touched by the devastation throughout the Gulf Coast and Southern Florida caused by the most recent hurricanes Katrina, Rita and now Wilma," said Operational Marketing Man- ager Carl Holman. "It's important that we pull together in times of crisis and assist in any way that we can. This auction pro- vided a means for employees to get in- volved and raise money for victims of the Wilma disaster, as well as supplement what our corporate headquarters has al- ready done for Katrina and Rita victims.

Custom showers: A fast-growing trend in bathroom design Special to Clay Today (NUI) Homeowners use their bath- rooms in different ways. For some, it's a place to take an invigorating shower in the morning or melt away the stress of the day with a luxurious bath. For oth- ers, form and function are key, because they can hardly find the time to enjoy the home spa experience due to their hectic schedules. As designers and bath manufacturers strive to make homes more personalized, one trend in bathroom remodeling is the concept of creating a custom shower. Homeowners today are choosing a va- riety of-shower features to meet their needs, from multiple showerheads to bodysprays to sophisticated temperature control systems. "There are an almost unlimited num- ber of possible configurations that give homeowners the option to completely customize their showering environment," said Keith Kometer, director of product marketing for Kohler Faucets.""If you're. looking for a modern, clutter-free look, CURRENT RATES Conventional Origination Discount Fee Point 30 Year Fixed 6.375 0 + 0 5/1 ARM *6.25 0 + 0 3/1 ARM 6.250 1/4 + 0 Interest Only 5/1 ARM ARMs 3/1 ARM 6.250 0.+ o0 ,6.375 1/4 + 0 30 Year Fixed 6.500 0 + -0 30 Year Fixed 6.375 0 + 0 30 Year Fixed 6.375 0 + 0 All rates are based ohn owner occupied prop- erty.

Even better, wouldn't it be nice to know more people on your block who would pitch in to help fix your- car, watch your children or lend you the tools you need to finish that backyard deck? Many suburban residents say they long for a stronger sense of community. But the modem suburbs, designed to ac- commodate the car and maximize private space, have too often neglected the impor- tant quality of community. There may be a better plan. What if we created new centers of business, recreation and art right in our neighborhoods, with slower traffic, more, public space and more opportunities for co- operation and support? Across the country, people are working together to make such SPECIAL TO,CLAY TODAY Members of this discussion group at Harmony Village, Golden, Colo., talk about how to make their homes more energy-efficient Credit: Dave Wann. S Area School Information We Want to Hear From You 904-284-6500 Clay County School District u ww.clay.kl2.fl.us/ changes to their neighborhoods. Saving Time and Money Nearly every category of household ex- penses could be trimmed if our neighbor- hoods were communities, rather than cul-de-sacs and rows of houses. For.ex- ample, the typical U.S. household spends about 19 percent of its disposable income on transportation, and we each average 450 hours in our cars and trucks every year! But when more of what we need is right in our neighborhoods, we may get in the car 10 times a week rather than 10 times a.day. Added all together, the sav- ings are impressive. Improving Our Health According to Richard Jackson, former di- rector of the National Center for Environ- mental Health, "The diseases, of the 21st century will be chronic diseases such as di- abetes, obesity, asthma and depression that steal vitality and productivity, and consume time and money. These diseases can be moderated by how we design, build and maintain our human environment." Doctors tell us one of the most impor- tant factors in maintaining our mental and physical health is a strong sense of com- munity. In the book The Power of Clan, authors Dr. Stewart Wolf and John Bruhn analyze a multi-decade study of Roseto, a small town in eastern Pennsylvania, where resident longevity is legendary and, at the time of the study, heart disease rates were well below the national average. Wolf and Bruhn attribute the town's remarkable health to three-generation bonding in fam- ilies, neighborliness, devoted churchgoing and membership in social organizations. Designing Superbia By working together, neighbors create a support group that can help individuals challenge unsustainable practices embed- ded in everyday lives. Below are just a few of the many possibilities for community cooperation: Lawn Care. Many neighborhoods appear to practice competitive lawn care, watering and fertilizing to the richest shade of green. According to the Environ- mental Protection Agency (EPA), home- owners apply pesticides to their lawns at a rate 20 times higher than farmers apply pesticides to their fields. Meanwhile, gaso- line-powered landscape equipment ac- counts for more than 5 percent of urban air pollution, runoff from lawns pollutes our water, and as much as one-fifth of household garbage is yard waste, with most going directly into landfills. What if, instead, we developed a mu- tually beneficial agreement with our neighbors to make front lawns more pro- ductive and less consumptive? The book Redesigning the American Lawn suggests one sensible plan, the Freedom Lawn. Wildflowers, herbs and weeds are all ac- cepted as part of the Freedom Lawn, as long as they can tolerate the whirring blades of the lawn mower. This laid-back approach to lawn care reduces the time it takes to maintain the yard and eliminates the use of pesticides and fertilizers. EcoTeams. Another opportunity for neighbors to work together is house-tuning: teaming up to make each house on the block more resource efficient. The Global Action Plan's EcoTeam Program, where people meet to discuss ways to make their homes more energy efficient, is one exam- ple (go to www.globalactionplan.org.uk/ and click on "At Home"). Some actions in- clude using high-efficiency compact-fluo- rescent light bulbs and replacing old, drafty windows with efficient "low-E" windows. EcoTeams can cut annual costs in each house by $300 a year or more. Stronger Social Networks. The eas- iest steps to begin transforming your neighborhood involve creating a social network with potlucks, community newsletters and discussion groups. The social capital created with these first few steps enables bolder steps to be taken later. Once you get started working .to- gether as a community, you'll find it eas- ier to tackle big projects, such as creating bike/pedestrian walkways and car-share clubs, where members collectively own a car and "rent" it by the hour as needed. Your neighborhood wouldn't want to begin with large projects, and your goals may be different than those listed above. But tangible rewards can result from simple changes in priorities and an interest in work- ing cooperatively. And whatever your goals, creating a more sustainabie neighborhood 'begins- ith a single eas' step lust sai, in "hello" to a neighbor you haven't met.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. Daniel Zhao, a 2005 graduate of Glen A. Wilson High School in Hacienda Heights, Calif., is accomplishing what high- priced Madison Avenue ad agencies may find too daunting: convincing teens to save their own lives by revers- ing a tragic trend that sees nearly 5,500 young people die in car crashes every year[l], most of whom could be saved by the use of safety belts. As part of a contest sponsored by Volkswagen of America, Inc., high school students from across the nation were challenged to create and pro- duce 30-second television public serv- ice announcements (PSAs) to convince their peers to buckle up. Zhao's PSA was chosen by a national Web vote as the overall winner from what started as.hundreds of contest entries. Zhao was announced as the winner during yesterday's Daily Download on Fuse -TV Playing off the saying "Life flashes before your eyes," Zhao's short film re- minds drivers of all the\ ha\ e to lose if they fail to buckle up, through a series of flashbacks, as a young driver trav- els down a dark, slick street. "Daniel's film is particularly com- pelling because he knows what other teens would miss if their lives were ended tragically short." Said Steve Keyes, director of corporate communications, Volkswagen of America, Inc. As one of three finalists, Zhao's PSA aired nationally on Fuse-TV's Daily Download on Friday, November 18. Viewers voted for the most com- pelling ad at www.vw.com/seatbelt until November 25. Volkswagen and Scholastic worked together for the third consecutive year to produce and distribute curriculum kits to some 14,000 teachers in 20 major U.S. cities. The kits provided teachers with the tools needed to cre- ate informative lessons for their stu- dents who were then asked to create the TV public service announce- ments. The goal is to use positive peer pressure, a proven persuader, to con- vince teens to buckle up. The power of peer pressure was un- derscored by the findings of an infor- mal 2003..survey .of high school students participating in the seat bell safety curriculum, conducted by Volk- swagen. "Uncool" was the primary rea- son given by teens for not buckling up more often. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) re- ports that safety belts save over 11,000 lives a year. Through Fasten Your Seat Belt...Go Far!, Volkswagen hopes to significantly add to this number while educating teens on driving safety. The commitment from Volkswa- gen to high schools is a fitting initiative. In a 2002 survey of 3,300 teens conducted by CNW Market- ing, Volkswagen was rated as having the best youth image among all automakers. "Volkswagen is a very popular brand with teenagers, and we wanted to use our connection with them to help create awareness and, ultimately, help save lives," said Keyes. SThe U.S. Department of Trans- portation (U.S. DOT) recently released new data showing 2003 as having the lowest fatality rate in 30 years. U.S. DOT Secretary Mineta pointed to ef- forts by NHTSA and other organiza- tions, such as Volkswagen and Scholastic, that encourage safety belt use. Still, there is much to be done: 56 percent of those killed in auto crashes are not wearing safety belts. Even Some i o 200 Jeep or Chryser. We ill show you the. invoice and add $1.00. That is your price, additionally, all consumers, -. .. -A ......-. M. -,.. .- .. i ..-i-.. . more alarming is that auto crashes are the number one killer of teenagers in this country and two-rthii (l of those are not wearing seat belts at the time of the crash. The two othel finalist ads \ere pro- duced by Jessica Reynolds, Carson Valley Middle School in Gardnerville, Nev., and Kimberly Pang, Clements High School, Sugar Land, Texas. The trio of student finalists will each receive a digital video camera. As the grand prize- inner, Zhao will be awarded a $10,000 savings bond. Second-place winner Jessica Reynolds will receive a $3,000 savings bond, and third-place winner Kim- berly Pang will receive a $1,500 sav- ings bond. Teachers of the three finalists will receive a $3,000 Apple G5.computer with flat screen moni- tor and Final Cut Pro Express soft- ware for classroom use and a $100 Scholastic gift certificate.

More power and refinement: Ford Explorer SUV gets major overhaul for 2006 By Ken Chester, Jr. Motor NewsMediaCorporation Ford takes the bull by the horns for 2006 with a complete redesign of its segment- leading Explorer SUV As the sales leader for the last 15 years, the Explorer is consid- ered the world's best selling SUV-- a tough actto follow. The automaker answered the call and responded with more power, im- proved fuel economy, low emissions, new advanced safety technologies, class-lead- ing interior quietness, improved ride comfort and bolder styling. Available in XLS, XLT, Eddie Bauer and Limited models and rear- or four- wheel drive drivetrain configurations, the Explorer SUV is built at the automaker's Louisville; Ky., light truck facility. The 2006 Ford SUV is poweredby an improved 4.0L V6 engine bolted to a 5R55W5 five- speed automatic transmission or a new op- tional three-valve 4.6L V8 prime mover mated to the 6R six-speed automatic transmission, a first for the segment. This year, the4.0L V6 engine is certified to the same level of ultra-low emissions as the Ford Escape Hybrid as a result of the following improvements: a 50 percentim- provement in idle quality due to a new camshaftandsparkplugs; new engine cal- ibrations; and improved emission controls that cut smog-forming emissions by 74 percent compared to the previous model The new optional 4.6L V8 shares the same variable cam timing and three-valve cylinder headsused on the wildly success- ful Mustang GT and 5.4L Ford F-150 en- gine. The all-new six-speed automatic transmission features a wide 6.04:1 gear ratio. ,_ nalblin.1 i ilic 1-ii,'iiic r.':hin o s nd more time in i[topti jiiuinm pu\ierh.1n id-- cilth rat peak p\,:.r f, i u: aceleation.,i ar peak ef- ficiency for more fuel economy. Underway, the new Explorer displays awesome low end response from rest de- livering a smooth, solid, confident and se- cure driving experience. The awesome goodness of the new Ford starts with an all-new body-on-frame construction. Thanks to increases in section height and width, it is 63 percent more resistant to bending and 55 percent more resistant to twisting than the previous model SThe Ford SUV adopts the F-150's tube- through-tube frame design, where the cross-members pass through the section of the frame-rails, creating an inherently December 1, 2005 CRUISIN' CLAY COUNTY Section C-7 stronger joint. These joints are then com- pletely welded around the perimeter for a fully boxed seam. The stiffer frame provides a smoother ride with better road feel, crisper han- dling and improved steering response because it allowed Ford engineers to im- prove the vehicle systems. Paired with new manufacturing techniques that de- crease manufacturing tolerances, the Ex- plorer's solid foundation also helps significantly reduce long-term squeaks and rattles. Explorer's control hardware includes a new front suspension that retains its basic geometry with upper and lower control arms and a sway bar. At the rear, the independent suspension now fea- tures trailing arms and is more robust to accommodate the vehicle's increased towing and payload capability. As before, the rear half shafts pass through frame portholes, lowering the rear control sub- frame for better third-row seating and a lower center of gravity. While the sus- pension components are stronger, they are also lighter overall. Inside the cabin, Ford engineers fought to eliminate unwanted noise with a vengeance. As a result, the Ex- plorer's third row isjust as quiet as some competitors' front row at highway speeds. The all-new interior features the use of advanced materials that dampen vibrations and lessen noise. New insula- tion materials were used along the head- liner, door panels and floor of the passenger compartment to ielp P.'i.':\ 1 le class-leading interior quietness.

Nestled deep inside the Ocala National Forest, the springs remained a secret until the 1960s, when SR-19 opened them to the world. Salt Springs isn't really salty at all, but a variety of minerals and rare trace ele- ments gives the cold spring water a mild salt taste. Rushing up from deep below the forest floor, 53 million gallons of water a day flow forth from the spring's five boils. For centuries, Indians have treasured the springs, traveling from as far away as the Carolinas to take advan- tage of the spring's reputed medicinal properties, to bathe in and drink the salty tasting water. According to legend, each boil offers cures for different ailments. Massive roots from stately oaks that still reach out over the water naturally ter- raced the steep walk down to the water. Those oaks created a beautiful canopy that helped to hide the Indian's cher- ished springs from discovery by whites. Spain originally granted ownership of the property that surrounds the springs to the Hernandez family (a gift from the King that the Hernandezes did not appreciate). The property remained undeveloped until the late 1.SII s. when i',.i.: i, Maarl, Pettus Boating and f:hl-,,c. .jrr, A l,l.. .:J .:r, ,-,:.jrlb, Lnl. Lake Kerry. Picnic tables are olj. o .I.irid.

Orange Ave.- Green Cove Springs, FL 32043- - 904-284.0028 www.rightwaytogo.com Salt Springs enjoys good weather year-round. two brothers from Georgia, Columbus and Walter Townsend, started shipping turpentine down the Salt Run, and on to the Naval Store in Jacksonville. They moved a large house from a nearby abandoned orange plantation to a plot at the head of the springs. The house still stands, and is the only evidence of the short commercial life that existed on the springs before Teddy Roosevelt set aside the vast surrounding scrubland in 1908 as the Ocala National Forest. In the early days of the last century, only stouthearted visitors would brave the hazards of traveling long, deep sand roads to visit and enjoy the waters of the Salt Springs. Some came to be healed, others to enjoy a cool bath in the clear water. Homemade shelters sprang up amongst the oaks sur- rounmding the springs. The most no- 4; ,. ;. table of those shelters was a screened shake at the head of the springs. The shack became a gathering place for road-weary travelers, and someone eventually installed ajukebox. Every evening, visitors to the springs would gather at the shack to talk andenjoy music from thejukebox. Both shack and jukebox have passed into history, but several mementos survive, includ- ing a rare photograph of famous trav- el writer Marjorie Rawlings sitting at the shack's counter. In the early 1960s, Highway 19 opened Salt Springs to the world, and the few private lands nearby were subdivided into campsites. Then, in 1979, the U.S. Government bought the Springs and 10,000 acres for the development of a recreational facility. O L iontinuedi n pdge C-ii -., r ; ULi -!, L L*-. -'L -, - x- .

No boating or fishing is allowed near the springs head, but just downstream on the Salt Run is a boat dock and facilities for rent- ing canoes and kayaks. If you prefer swimming in a pool, most of the area campgrounds are full-service resorts, with pools, recre- ation centers, lodges, boat docks, and fishing piers. Some even boast minia- ture golf, shuffleboard, horseshoes, and tennis courts. Salt Springs is south of Clay County. There are several campgrounds near the recreational facility, and many offer cabins for rent. (We stayed at the Elite Resort, where two bedroom cab- ins with full kitchens rent from about $70 a night); There are only two restau- rants in the area, and one small grocery store, so it might be a good idea to bring a cooler if you are staying more than a day. Day access to the Salt Springs Recreational Area costs $4 per person, and camping at the Recre- ational Area is available. Rates vary from $14 to $20 per night. Photos by Mark, Pettus Playgrounds, recreation centers and even miniature golf courses are available at area campgrounds. 0 Salt Springs is renowned for its crystal-clear, salty tasting water that comes out of the underground aquifer at thousands of gallons a minute.
