The Sentry December 25, 2014 Page 1 NEWS Volume XX Number 52 www.flsentry.com Cops cleared in killing of FSU gunman A grand jury is clearing five police officers involved in the shooting of a gunman on the campus of Florida State University. Myron May was shot and killed by police in the early morning hours of Nov. 20. Before the 31-year-old was killed, May shot at students and one library employee. Three bullets struck 21-year-old student Farhan “Ronny” Ahmed, including a shot that left him paralyzed from the waist down. A Leon County grand jury on Tuesday heard from witnesses and went over physical evidence collected at Strozier Library. In a brief four-page report, jurors called the actions of police “heroic,” and they praised the “prompt response” of a dispatcher. The report states there could have been more casualties if police had not acted so quickly. Scott blasts Obama over Cuba moves Florida Gov. Rick Scott is sharply criticizing President Barack Obama over his plans to normalize relations with Cuba. Scott put out a statement on Wednesday that says he continues to support sanctions and the existing embargo against the island nation “as long as Cuba chooses dictatorship over democracy.” “President Obama is giving into a tyrannical government that does not value human rights and completely disregards the people of Cuba who are fighting for democracy,” Scott said. Scott also called it “unconscionable” for the president to agree to release three Cubans jailed in the United States as part of an agreement to release American Alan Gross. Gross was arrested in 2009 while working in the Communist-run country to set up Internet access for the island’s small Jewish community. Donor drops $10,000 in Red Kettles Someone filled the Salvation Army’s Red Kettles with nearly $10,000 in crisp $100 bills folded in the exact same way. The donation came Tuesday and was spread among the kettles from Viera to Cocoa Beach. Salvation Army officials believe the money came from a single source. The amounts ranged from $500 to $1,000 per kettle. The donations generated a lot of excitement for bell ringers, who typically see smaller denominations. The Salvation Army’s Capt. Angel Calderon says the money will go a long way in helping local families during the holidays. Florida’s jobless rate drops in November Florida’s unemployment rate is dropping again. New jobless numbers released Friday showed that the state’s unemployment rate for November is 5.8 percent. That’s a drop of 0.2 percent from October. Florida’s rate now matches the national unemployment rate. Florida’s drop was aided by the addition of nearly 42,000 jobs last month. Florida only trailed California in the number of jobs added in November. Gov. Rick Scott announced the new job numbers during a visit to Viewpost, a financial services company that plans to add nearly 300 jobs to its offices in in Maitland. Scott policies have helped propel the state’s economy. Couple run down in Boca Raton An elderly couple was struck and killed as they crossed a residential street just days after having moved into their Boca Raton beachside neighborhood. The driver remained on scene. Broward Sheriff’s Office Traffic Homicide detectives are investigating the fatal crash. At 7:06 p.m. on December 17, Mark Lasman was driving his 2007 Lexus RX350 northbound on Ocean Drive in the single northbound thru lane. Philip Kendall and Francine CONTINUED ON PAGE 2 Broward Judge guilty of DUI The verdict is in for a Broward judge on trial. On Friday afternoon, the jury found Broward Judge Cynthia Imperato guilty of driving under the influence and reckless driving. Judge Imperato gave no reaction when the jury’s verdict was read. Following her conviction, she was sentenced to 20 days on house arrest and 12 months on probation. Prosecutors wanted Judge Imperato to serve 30 days in jail but the judge decided on house arrest. The state asked for Imperato to pay a $2,000 fine and have her drivers’ license revoked. Prosecutors said Imperato deserved a serious punishment. “She endangered three people that night. We don’t know how many people were in those cars. Testimony came out that she nearly sideswiped two cars on two separate occasion and those cars luckily enough were able to have the reflexes or the wherewithal to avoid that type of circumstance,” said Prosecutor Richard Clausi. The jury reconvened Friday after members left the courtroom late Thursday evening. Imperato was arrested by Boca Raton Police for a DUI in November 2013. When Judge Imperato was pulled over, she initially refused to get out of the car. “I’ve asked you nicely several times, to step out of the car,” the officer was heard saying on video of the arrest shown to the court. “I’m trying to call my lawyer,” she explained to the officer. “I’m going to sit Judge Cynthia Imperato in my car until I get my lawyer.” Prosecutors showed jurors the video of her arrest and the refusal to do a breath test. The prosecutors said she would not take the test because they are certain she would have failed. Imperato was stopped after another driver called 911, saying they saw an erratic driver go by. Initially, the caller thought it was a man behind the wheel. “He’s all over the road!” the caller said. “He nearly sideswiped me twice. He’s got to be drunk.” In opening statements on Wednesday, prosecutor Ari Goldberg explained Imperato was at a function with lawyers and judges and there was an open bar. Goldberg said the judge admitted to the officer who stopped her that she had been drinking. He also said the officer noticed glassy eyes and the smell of alcohol on her breath. “She knew this whole time, as soon as those lights came on that she was in trouble. She knew she was impaired. She’s the only one who could know it 100%,” said Prosecutor Richard Clausi. Imperato’s attorney said the person who called 911 had no idea who was in the car and no idea what was going on inside. Collet suggested maybe she was sending a text message or trying to find an address on her phone GPS. Imperato’s attorney’s said that there was no solid evidence that Imperato was drunk behind the wheel. “This lady was able to walk, able to talk, able to give her address, able to speak. Do you believe she was falling down drunk? Intoxicated? Wobbly?” said Marc Shiner, Imperato’s attorney. A witness and a police officer testified she was swerving all over the road — endangering other drivers. “The Mercedes drifted into their lane quite far and both drivers, I heard them blow their horns,” said witness William Barthelme. Defense attorneys said the case was filled with holes. “There’s a lack of evidence in this case all day long. Ten thousand reasonable doubts,” said Shiner. What happens now for Judge Imperato? The Judicial Qualifications Commission (JQC) which is the state agency that investigates judges said their cases are confidential but in a case like this one, the JQC would investigate, hold a hearing and make a recommendation on punishment to the Florida Supreme Court. The Florida Supreme Court would make the final decision on whether a judge convicted of DUI would be reprimanded or potentially removed from the bench. Marathon bombing suspect appears in court for 1st time since 2013 Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev returned to court Thursday for the first time since he was arraigned in July 2013, and he received a shout of encouragement from the mother-in-law of a man who was shot and killed while being questioned by law enforcement after the bombings. Security was tight at the federal courthouse in Boston or Tsarnaev’s final pretrial conference. Tensions ran high, and one bombing victim had a testy exchange with protesters outside. During the brief court hearing, U.S. District Court George O’Toole Jr. made no rulings, saying he would rule in writing on pending motions, including the defense’s latest push to move the trial out of Boston. David Bruck, one of Tsarnaev’s lawyers, told the judge that the defense plans to file a motion to delay the trial, which is now scheduled to begin on Jan. 5 with jury selection. Bruck did not say how long of a delay the defense will seek. At one point, the mother-in-law of Ibragim Todashev called out to Tsarnaev never flinched or acknowledged the shouts. Three people were killed and more than 260 were injured when two bombs exploded near the finish line of the April 2013 marathon. Tsarnaev, who has pleaded not guilty to 30 federal charges, faces the possibility of the death penalty if he is convicted. Tsarnaev Tsarnaev in Russian in the courtroom. Elena Teyer said she told him: “We pray for you. Be strong, my son. We know you are innocent.” Later, in English, she yelled to the law enforcement officers escorting her out of the room: “Stop killing innocent people. Stop killing innocent boys.” "I wasn’t sure it I had lost complete faith in humanity but the Tsarnaev supporters at court yesterday really confirmed that for me." — Samantha Hooper Pompano Pioneers by Bud Garner West of Pompano, highway 441 and South of the Wiles road, there lies a huge expanse of swampland that was covered with from 6 to 12 inches of water at most any given time. Portions of this land was owned by The Blount family, the Remsberg family and by H.L. (Bud) Lyons. This land had access from Wiles road on the East side and from the Everglades South of the Hillsboro canal. There was a sizable herd of game, deer, hogs and turkeys in this area and it was open to hunting except the part that was posted and it was well marked and in some instances, fenced. I first encountered RD ( Plumber) Smith in these swamps one day while slogging through the mud and water on foot while hunting in this area. First, R.D. was a neighbor of mine and he was also a businessman in Pompano and he loved the outdoors and hunting, He would drive his four wheel vehicle all the way to Alaska over the Alcan highway every few years to hunt and fish, carrying along a freezer and portable generator to keep the meat frozen as he drove the thousands of miles back to Pompano. R.D, pulled up to me and we exchanged pleasantries, He knew me and I him, he asked if I had a vehicle some place and I answered ”no”, I parked on the Wiles road and I was on foot as I had done many times while hunting in this area. Our conversation turned to hunting and where was a good place to find deer and I remarked that I was on my First Eastern Airlines plane arrives at MIA since 1991 For the first time in more than 23 years, an Eastern Airlines plane landed at Miami International Airport Friday. The Miami-based airline stopped flying in January 1991 when South Florida’s largest carrier went into bankruptcy. But it has been reborn. “I think this is great to see the colors back in the air because it was a great airline,” former Easter Airlines flight attendant Lucia Sprawka told Local 10 News. After flying over Miami Beach, the plane made its historic landing and was welcomed with water cannons.

Circuit Judge Dale Cohen on Wednesday dissolved the marriage of Heather Brassner and Megan Lade. They were united in a 2002 civil union in Vermont. Cohen had ruled in August that Florida’s gay marriage ban is unconstitutional and that out-ofstate gay marriages should be recognized. Brassner attorney Nancy Brodzki said it was Florida’s first-ever gay divorce. Brodzki says she expects Attorney General Pam Bondi to appeal the decision, just as she has several other rulings against the gay marriage ban. There was no immediate reaction from Bondi’s office Wednesday. The ban was enshrined in the state constitution by voters in 2008. Broward County residents $13.78 per year including tax.

Serving Broward County, Florida School board crook gets probation Stephanie Kraft Mitch Kraft Judge protects Democrat insiders A former Broward County school board member convicted of official misconduct won't be serving any prison time. Stephanie Kraft was sentenced to five years of probation Friday. She walked out of the courtroom still wearing her brown jail jumpsuit amid applause and hugs from Democrat supporters. Judge Matthrew Destry remanded Kraft into custody after she was found guilty last week and denied her bond while she awaited sentencing, despite the efforts of her attorney. Kraf allegedly used the power of her elected office to help father-son developers Bruce and Shawn Chait get a $500,000 break on school board fees in exchange for $10,000 paid to her husband Mitch Kraft, who also faces charges and is expected to go to trial early next year. "This is very humbling," Stephanie Kraft said as she walked away. Kraft could have her criminal record cleared if she abides by the terms of her probation, which includes 20 hours of community service. "She can vote. She can own a firearm," her attorney said. "She has no restrictions as far as that's concerned once she's off probation." Allen West making final Florida appearance Tea party hero Allen West is making his final Florida appearance before moving to Texas. The one-term congressman is appearing at a holiday party for his selfnamed foundation Saturday in Palm Beach Gardens. He announced last month he will become CEO of the Dallas-based National Center for Policy Analysis in January. West lost his bid for a second term in Congress two years ago after a close race with Democrat Patrick Murphy that resulted in court fights and recounts. He is well-known nationally among conservative Republicans, some of whom have lobbied for him to run for president. He was a career Army officer until firing a gun near an Iraqi prisoner’s head and threatening to kill Colonel Allen West him, an incident that resulted in him being relieved of his command. Hunting in the Everglades way out and was through hunting for the day, He said, “get on my buggy and I will take you to your car”. On the way to my car he asked if I came here very often and replied not to often as it was hard hunting, slogging through the mud and water and there were lots of water moccasins and one had to watch where every step was made. He said that he usually had someone go with him because he didn’t like hunting alone, he had dogs business acumen to set himself up in business and been very successful. The next Saturday morning at 4 AM I walked the three blocks from my house to his and he was ready to go, There was two other people going also, One was W.R. ( Dub) Henderson and my childhood friend, Robert Mitchell. The dogs were in a cage in the back of the buggy, Dub was going to transport the buggy on a trailer to the hunting area (the tower on the buggy had hinges but without someone with him, he left them home. That brought up his next question, would I care to go with him on his buggy and his dogs sometimes, I readily agreed to that and he proposed that we meet at his house the next Saturday about 4 AM and we would return with his dogs and hunt. RD was in the appliance, plumbing and heating business. He also had a farming operation in Palm Beach County. During WW II, he had the plumbing and heating building contracts for the USAAF training airfield at Boca Raton. So RD had the means to be as independent as he wanted to be and he enjoyed the outdoors. RD had arrived in South Florida sometime in the late 1920s from North Carolina and had enough so it could be folded over to reduce the height for transporting.) RD loaded the guns and other equipment in his pickup truck and he would drive it out to the edge of the hunt area and leave it there. Robert and I rode in the cab with him because it was in November and was quite chilly. Arriving at the place we would board the buggy, we off loaded our equipment placing the guns up on the tower that was constructed on top of the buggy (a WW II Jeep) there was room for three people in the tower and there a was a large tractor inner tube that was placed around the inside of the cage of the elevated platform as a hedge against injury while being bounced around going through the swamps. RD had installed huge aircraft tires on the jeep so it could travel through the mud and water, as long as the water was not more than three feet deep, we were not liable to drown out the Jeep. We set out to the West in the buggy just as dawn was breaking and that is the best part of the day for me when going hunting, the swamps and hammocks started to come alive, the huge long billed cranes and pond birds were rising off their roost and heading out for their daily food hunts. The birds were calling to each other and there was a myriad of noise and sounds as the swamps came alive and the wild things were lustly broadcasting their arrival of a new day to the world. We were now deep enough into the swamps to turn the dogs loose, RD said we could let them loose and follow until they struck a trail or we could keep them locked up and drive around until maybe we spotted a deer then we would release them. We opted to release the dogs and follow them because they could possibly jump a deer that was lying down or hiding. We unlimbered our guns, Dub would drive and we would be his eyes because the grass was higher than his windshield in places and we could see much further and would relay our course and any obstacles to him. I had brought along a Japanese 1938 model rifle cal .25 that I had brought home from Japan after the war when I was in the US Navy and I had obtained sporting ammunition for it and had bore sighted it so that is was accurate up to a distance of 300 yards, RD was using a .44 cal semiautomatic Remington and Robert was using a Winchester 30-30 cal, lever action rifle. Dub had a shotgun but he probably would not be in on any deer shooting from the drivers seat. CONTINUED ON PAGE 6 NEWS...

Thief fakes heart attack Authorities say a man faked a heart attack inside a central Florida Wal- L'Acqua Azzurra Mart store so his friend could steal toys. The men — 30-year-old Tarus Scott and 27-year-old Genard Dupree — were arrested Tuesday on grand theft charges. The Polk County Sheriff’s office says the men filled a shopping cart a motorized power wheel Barbie car, Leap Frog tablet and a Barbie Glam vacation house. They walked through the store together. Video surveillance shows Dupree lay on the floor near the store entrance, clutching his chest. As con- Call (954) 793-7206 Pool Service Broward County Florida cerned citizens checked on him, Scott walked out of the store with the cart. Once Scott was outside Dupree got up and walked out.

Thieves hit Weston jewelry store A two-man team targets a Weston jewelry store and gets away with thousands of dollars worth of jewelry but only after they are captured by the store’s security cameras. Broward Sheriff’s Office Robbery detectives are asking for the public’s help in identifying the suspects involved. On December 16, Sam Cohen was getting ready to close up his Weston jewelry store, Jewelry by Lana, when he heard the doorbell ring. He buzzed them in, assuming it was a customer that had left only minutes before. The store surveillance video shows a man standing outside the store and holding the door open as another white male, holding a cardboard box, enters. Once inside, the man pulled out a gun and pointed it at Cohen. He forced Cohen to open several display cases and pulled the items into the box by the handfuls. The robber wore a black hoodie, dark jeans, black gloves and a mask. The men fled with rings, diamond earrings and diamond bracelets valued in the hundreds of thousands. BSO Robbery detectives are investigating the robbery. Detectives are looking for the two white males captured on the store’s security video. Anyone with information may contact BSO Det.

Number of toprated high schools falls in Florida Welcome L'Acqua Azzura provides professional pool service in Broward County -we have a highly trained and professional staff ready to start any sized job! Licensed (cc#13-SP-18474-X) & Insured (GL39018-1) The number of top rated high schools in Florida is dropping. Grades released Thursday by the Florida Department of Education showed that the number of A-graded schools dropped from 49 percent last year to 36 percent this year. The number of schools given a B did edge up slightly from 33 percent to 35 percent. Education Commissioner Pam Stewart said a key reason for the drop in A-rated schools was that the grading formula was changed to make it harder to earn a top grade. Elementary and middle school grades were announced last summer. The department tried to downplay the drop in the number of A-rated schools in its official release. Instead the department highlighted that the state’s overall high school graduation rate edged up slightly this year. 4 stranded in Everglades when airboat overturns Four people are safe after their airboat overturned southwest of Everglades Holiday Park in the Miami Canal. Broward Sheriff’s officials say two men and two women managed to swim to shore and call for help Wednesday afternoon. Officials say the boat rounded a turn and hit a submerged rock. The 14foot airboat tilted up and flipped over, sending the passengers into the water. Broward Sheriff’s Office Air Rescue spotted them and guided rescue crews to the site. Firefighters brought the victims to Holiday Park. No injuries were reported. The overturned airboat was marked as a navigational hazard. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission also assisted in the rescue. SANTISO PT, INC.

These proteins, known as Musashi proteins, can force cells into a state associated with increased proliferation. Biologists have previously found that this kind of transformation, which often occurs in cancer cells as well as during embryonic development, is controlled by transcription factors — proteins that turn genes on and off. However, the new MIT research reveals that RNA-binding proteins also play an important role. Human cells have about 500 different RNA-binding proteins, which influence gene expression by regulating messenger RNA, the molecule that carries DNA’s instructions to the rest of the cell. When the researchers knocked down Musashi proteins in breast cancer cells grown in the lab, the cells were forced out of the epithelial state. Also, if the proteins were artificially boosted in mesenchymal cells, the cells transitioned to an epithelial state. This suggests that Musashi proteins are responsible for maintaining cancer cells in a proliferative, epithelial state. “These proteins seem to really be regulating this cell-state transition, which we know from other studies is very important, especially in breast cancer,” Katz says. The researchers found that Musashi proteins repress a gene called Jagged1, which in turn regulates the Notch signaling pathway. Notch signaling promotes cell division in neurons during embryonic development and also plays a major role in cancer. When Jagged1 is repressed, cells are locked in an epithelial state and are much less motile. The researchers found that Musashi proteins also repress Jagged1 during normal mammary-gland development, not just in cancer. When these proteins were overexpressed in normal mammary glands, cells were less able to undergo the type of healthy EMT required for mammary tissue development. Brenton Graveley, a professor of genetics and developmental biology at the University of Connecticut, says he was surprised to see how much influence Musashi proteins can have by controlling a relatively small number of genes in a cell. “Musashi proteins have been known to be interesting for many years, but until now nobody has really figured out exactly what they’re doing, especially on a genome-wide scale,” he says. The researchers are now trying to figure out how Musashi proteins, which are normally turned off after embryonic development, get turned back on in cancer cells. “We’ve studied what this protein does, but we know very little about how it’s regulated,” Katz says. He says it is too early to know if the Musashi proteins might make good targets for cancer drugs, but they could make a good diagnostic marker for what state a cancer cell is in. “It’s more about understanding the cell states of cancer at this stage, and diagnosing them, rather than treating them,” he says. Lifespan variability between races explained Eliminating health disparities between races is a goal of many groups and organizations, but a team of sociologists suggests that finding the reasons for the differences in the timing of black and white deaths may be trickier than once thought. Life expectancies for black people are shorter and more uncertain, on average, than to those of whites, according to Glenn Firebaugh, Roy C. Buck Professor of American Institutions and professor of sociology and demography, Penn State. A higher lifespan variability -- the variability in the ages at which people die -- among blacks is usually explained by higher rates of certain causes of death, such as murder, which are more common among the young. However, the researchers found that higher rates of other causes of white deaths among the young appear to offset this. "We initially suspected that the greater variance in lifespan for blacks would be a result of differences in the causes of death, for instance, the higher homicide rates among blacks," said Glenn Firebaugh. "But, as we looked closer, we saw that suicides and deaths due to drug poisoning -- deaths that are more common among whites -- offset the higher homicide rates for blacks." Black homicide rates account for about 38 percent of the greater variance for blacks. However, the higher rates of white suicide and death due to drug overdose nearly cancels out the homicide effect, Firebaugh said. Taken all together, differences in causes of death account for only about 13 percent of the difference in lifespan variability between blacks and whites, according to the researchers. "If you could magically change everything and make it so blacks and whites died of exactly the same causes, that would have surprisingly little effect on the difference in lifespan variability," said Firebaugh. "About 87 percent of the overall difference would persist." In addition to behavioral reasons for lifespan uncertainty, researchers have also theorized that differences in medical treatment of and health prevention strategies for black and white patients may explain some of the difference in the variability of lifespan. The researchers suggest that inter- ventions to reduce this disparity may be more effective if they target sex, as well as race. "With regard to policy, our results indicate the importance of sex-specific intervention to reduce racial disparities," the researchers said. "In the case of HIV/ AIDS, for example, there is greater potential for significant reduction of the racial gap when men are targeted. The opposite is true for heart disease and diabetes, where interventions focused on women are more likely to narrow the gap." Focusing on preventing specific causes of death, such as homicide and HIV/AIDS deaths, would help significantly cut the disparity. Eliminating the difference in deaths due to those two causes would cut the black-white disparity in lifespan variance by half, the researchers said. Lifespan uncertainty is important because it may have a ripple effect for people and society, according to Firebaugh. "This isn't part of the study, of course, but the uncertainty in lifespan could lead to uncertainty about the future," said Firebaugh. "One could imagine, for instance, that a consequence of people facing more uncertain lifespans would be that they change the way they plan, or don't plan, for health or education, for example, or for investing in retirement." Social media could lead to more HIV testing UCLA research suggests a valuable tool in the fight against the virus that causes AIDS Social media such as Twitter and Facebook can be valuable in the fight against HIV in the United States, where research has demonstrated they can prompt high-risk populations to request at-home testing kits for the virus that causes AIDS, suggesting a way to potentially boost testing rates. But does it lead to actual testing, and can it work outside the United States? A new study from the UCLA Center for Digital Behavior suggests that it can. The study, conducted in Peru among men who have sex with men, found that participants in the intervention arm of a randomized controlled clinical trial were more than twice as likely to be tested for HIV than those who joined a social media group and were provided with traditional HIV prevention services. The intervention, called Harnessing Online Peer Education (HOPE), combines social media with behavioral psychology to encourage people in high-risk populations to get tested, said Sean Young, assistant professor of family medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and executive director of the UCLA Center for Digital Behavior. “This shows that it’s not just social media that got people to test, but the HOPE social media interventions and the psychological ingredients it used for changing behavior,” said Young, who is also a member of the UCLA AIDS Institute and Center for AIDS Research. “In other words, if you’re a public health organization or worker, don’t just think that throwing something on Facebook or Twitter will be the solution and change people’s be- haviors. Social media may be helpful, but the HOPE intervention was significantly more likely to change HIV testing behavior compared to traditional care through social media.” Though there have been many experimental HIV testing interventions in international settings, none have used social media technologies, said Young, who is also a member of the UCLA AIDS Institute and Center for AIDS Research, the Center for HIV Identification, Prevention and Treatment Services and the UCLA Center for Addiction and Behavioral Medicine. This study was conducted in greater Lima, which reflects the lowand middle-income countries where low-cost interventions such as HOPE could help stem the spread of AIDS. Previous research by Young and colleagues demonstrated that the HOPE intervention increased participants’ requests for testing, but was too small to determine the rates of actual testing. “That pilot study was a good enough start showing the potential of using the HOPE intervention to change testing behavior,” he said. This study builds on the prior research by increasing the number of participants by about five times — 556 participants compared to 112 — and it was designed with a verifiable and observable endpoint allowing the researchers to gauge the rates at which participants followed through with requests for kits and got tested. The 556 Peruvian men who have sex with men were randomly assigned to join control groups or private intervention on Facebook for 12 weeks, with 278 assigned to each group. The control group received an enhanced standard of care, which included standard offline HIV prevention and test- ing services offered by local clinics and organizations and participation in Facebook groups that provided study updates and HIV testing information. The intervention group, by contrast, received the enhanced standard of care and also incorporated the HOPE intervention behavior change model, which utilized peer leaders who sent messages, chats and wall posts and engaged the participants in general friendly conversation. The peer leaders also communicated information about HIV prevention and testing to the participants. Of the 278 participants in each group, 26 from the intervention group did not complete the follow-up survey and 32 were lost to follow-up on the control side. Of the 252 from the intervention group who provided complete data, 43 (17 percent) went on to take an HIV test, compared with 16 (7 percent) of the controls. In the study, seven participants who tested positive were linked to care at a local clinic. Though this research provides evidence that the HOPE intervention can increase HIV testing in low- and middle-income countries, other settings are different from Peru, so the researchers can’t say for certain if these findings are applicable to other countries. This study, however, suggests that the HOPE intervention and new technologies can be a low-cost solution for populations at risk for HIV in Peru and other similar low- and middleincome country settings, Young said. “This could set the stage for important future work on being able to use these methods to treat people who have HIV, which is a tremendous issue in settings like sub-Saharan Africa,” Young added. Experts predict food trends for 2015 For the second year, University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences faculty members predict the food-related trends that could end up on your dinner plates and grocery store shelves in 2015: Wow, that’s … pungent: Americans continue to develop a fondness for fermented foods, which often create strong, unique flavors in such products as kimchi, sauerkraut, beer, wine and yogurt. Besides being fun to eat, such foods are said to be good for digestive health.

Healthcare providers, specifically nurse practitioners, can help parents understand what "normal" sleep patterns are for their child, according to researchers. "Nurse practitioners are at the frontline of healthcare," said Robin Yaure, senior instructor of human development and family studies, Penn State Mont Alto. "They are in an ideal position to help parents understand infant sleep pattern norms. Thus, nurse practitioners can help parents understand that 'sleeping through the night' is not entirely likely in young infants and that infants' sleep patterns change during the first few years of life." According to the researchers, there are four common areas of concern for both parents and practitioners: what constitutes "normal" infant sleep and waking patterns, whether night wakings are a problem or not, whether a parent's presence is disruptive while an infant is falling asleep, and whether sleep training is safe and healthy for infants. Sleep training is one way to establish a sleep routine for a child, although the methods used may not be appealing to parents or in the best interests of the child, the researchers said. Yaure and colleagues reviewed current research on infant sleep, focusing on the above four areas of concern, and specifically on infant safety and the well being of both infant and mother during nighttime care. Based on what they found, the researchers suggest ways to integrate parental preferences and best practice information, and include conversation points for nurse practitioners in an article recently published online in the Journal fide chefs to school food directors, to ensure that school lunches taste great. UF/IFAS’ Farm to School team is helping forge these relationships with the hope that students will then ask for fresh foods at home. Hot enough for ya?: New and more intense flavors, such as smoky flavor infused into alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, will become more commonplace. Hot foods will become hotter. Would you like to downsize that?: “Minimalism” is becoming a new word in food—with smaller portions being offered both at home and in restaurants. The goal is to help folks understand smaller portions lead to better health. of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. Infants' sleep patterns vary for at least the first three years of life. There are many reasons for this, including changes in infant health and mobility and the development of separation anxiety. "Sharing this basic information with parents is one way of assuring parents that infants' waking does not necessarily mean that the parents are doing something wrong," the researchers wrote. Parental presence at bedtime, sleep training and infant self-settling are frequently debated topics about which parents might look to healthcare professionals for advice. Yaure and colleagues again point to the importance of sharing new information -- for example, recent research suggests that the presence of parents at bedtime, specifically during the transition to sleep, may not trigger night wakings as had been previously thought. Other recent findings show that nonresponsiveness of mothers during nighttime care sometimes in sleep training, can raise stress for both mom and baby. Elevated stress increases cortisol in the body, which may hurt the baby in the long run since increased cortisol levels are associated with depression, aggression and attention problems, among other issues, in children and adults. "I worry about parents who feel like they can't trust their own instincts," said Yaure. "Different parents have different goals and ideas for parenting, and we want parents to figure out how to incorporate best practices into their belief system. We have to be culturally aware and sensitive to different families and beliefs." By encouraging nurse practitioners to talk about current knowledge on infant nightwakings and parental presence, among other things, Yaure hopes that parents will become more comfortable and confident with their nighttime care choices. Cake or Carrots? Timing decides what you'll nosh on When you open the refrigerator for a late-night snack, are you more likely to grab a slice of chocolate cake or a bag of carrot sticks? Your ability to exercise self-control—i.e., to settle for the carrots—may depend upon just how quickly your brain factors healthfulness into a decision, according to a recent study by Caltech neuro economists. "In typical food choices, individuals need to consider attributes like health and taste in their decisions," says graduate student Nicolette Sullivan, lead author of the study. "What we wanted to find out was at what point the taste of the foods starts to become integrated into the choice process, and at what point health is integrated." Since taste is a concrete, innate attribute—after all, people know what foods they like and do not like—the researchers hypothesized that it becomes factored into the food decisionmaking process first. A food's affect on health, on the other hand, is a more abstract attribute—one that you often need to learn about or do research on. In fact, there are such widely varying opinions about the healthfulness of nutrients like fats, calories, and carbs that you may not even be able to find a definitive answer. Therefore, the researchers assumed, the healthiness of a food likely is not factored into a person's food choice until after taste is. And for those individuals who exercised less self-control, they hypothesized, health would factor into the choice even later. To test these ideas, Sullivan—along with her colleagues in the laboratory of Antonio Rangel, Bing Professor of Neuroscience, Behavioral Biology, and Economics, including Rangel himself—developed a new experimental technique that allowed them to evaluate, on a scale of milliseconds, when taste and health information kick in during the process of making a decision. They did this by tracking the movement of a computer mouse as a person makes a choice. In the experiment, 28 hungry subjects—Caltech student-volunteers who had been fasting for four hours—were asked to rate 160 foods individually on a scale from –2 to 2, based on that food's healthfulness, its tastiness, and how much the subject would like to eat that food after the experiment was over. The subjects were then presented with 280 random pairings of those same foods and were asked to use a computer mouse to click on—to choose—which food they preferred from each pairing. The researchers then used statistical tools to analyze each subject's cursor movements and, therefore, the choice process. They looked at how fast taste began to drive the mouse's movement—and how soon health did. For example, one subject's cursor trajectory might be driven by the taste of the foods very early in the trial, but soon after might be driven by health also—resulting in the selection of the healthier item, like Brussels sprouts over pizza. However, another subject's cursor trajectory might be driven by taste all the way to the selection of pizza—with health information coming online too late in the choice process to influence the selection of the food. Sullivan and her colleagues found that, on average, taste information began to influence the trajectory of the mouse cursor, and thus the choice process, almost 200 milliseconds earlier than health information. For 32 percent of subjects, health never influenced their food choice at all; they made every single choice based on taste, and their cursor was never driven by the healthfulness of the items. "What Nikki has shown is that a big factor here is how quickly you can represent and take into account different types of information when you are making choices," says Rangel. "People are making these choices very quickly—in a couple of seconds—so very small differences, even just a hundred milliseconds, can make an enormous difference in whether or how much health considerations ultimately influences the decision." The researchers then wanted to find out if some people have an advantage in exercising self-control simply because they can factor health information into their choice earlier. On average, the lowself-control group began to factor in health information 323 milliseconds later than the high-selfcontrol group. This suggests, says Sullivan, that the more quickly someone begins to consider a food's health benefits, the more likely they are to exert self-control by ultimately choosing the healthier food. In addition, Sullivan says, it seems that those who calculate health earlier in the process also weigh it more heavily in their decision-making process. These findings, she notes, mean it might one day be useful to encourage people to wait a bit longer before making a food choice. "Since we know that taste appears before health, we know that it has an advantage in the ultimate decision. However, once health comes online, if you wait it might give health a chance to catch up and influence the choice," she says. Do you have the need for?

During the holiday season, you no doubt have a lot going on in your life — work functions, gatherings with friends and neighbors, tracking down the elusive “perfect gift,” etc. But you may find it valuable to add one more event to your calendar: a family meeting to discuss those financial preparations that affect you and your loved ones. Of course, the scope of your meeting will depend on your age and the age of your children, and on whether you have elderly parents. So, let’s look at one family meeting scenario that would work under two different sets of circumstances: you are meeting with your own grown children or you are meeting with your elderly parents. In either case, you’ll want to review the following areas: Investment information — It’s a good idea to let your grown children know where you (and your spouse, if still living) keep your investments and what sort of investments and retirement accounts you own, such as your IRA, 401(k), and so on. You should also provide your children with the name of your financial advisor. And talk to your parents about their investments. You might think that this could be challenging topic to bring up, but you might be surprised at their willingness to talk. Estate planning documents — Comprehensive estate planning can involve a variety of legal documents, such as a will, a living trust, power of attorney, etc. If you have already created these documents, you need to share both their location and their intent with your grown children, who will be active players in carrying out your estate plans. The same is true with your elderly parents — try to encourage them to share all their estate-planning documents with you, especially if they will be counting on you for their care. Names of professional advisors — As you put together your estate plans, you will likely need to work with a team of financial, tax and legal advisors. Make sure your grown children know the names of these professionals and how to contact them. Similarly, seek the same information from your parents. Wishes for future living arrangements — It’s certainly possible that you will be able to live independently your whole life. On the other hand, you may eventually need some type of long-term care, such as that provided in a nursing home or an assisted-living residence. Let your children know what your feelings are about such a possibility, and what preparations you have made. And try to elicit the same information from your own parents. Funeral or burial instructions — Admittedly, you can probably find topics that are more pleasant to discuss than funeral plans. Yet, if you make your own burial or cremation plans in advance, and possibly even prepay for them, you will be taking a tremendous burden off the shoulders of your loved ones, who won’t be forced to make difficult decisions — or scramble for money at short notice — during a highly emotional time in their lives. Once again, you’ll also want to learn about your parents’ desires for their final arrangements, and what steps they may have already taken in this area. By holding a family meeting about these issues today, you can avoid a lot of stress and misunderstandings in the future. So bring out the coffee and cookies — and start talking. This article was written by Edward Jones for use by your local Edward Jones Financial Advisor. Gas explosions may explain Bermuda Triangle mystery? The discovery of several mysterious craters in Siberia earlier this year launched a wave of speculation about their origins. Now, a new report suggests an explanation for the holes, claiming it could also be linked to the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle. However, other scientists not involved in the new report say the weird sinkhole mechanism likely doesn't explain vanishings in the Bermuda Triangle a place that has never been proIn July, Russian scientists reported in the journal Nature that the explosive release of gases trapped in the permafrost — known as methane hydrates likely carved out the enormous sinkholes. Air near the crater's bottom contained unusually high concentrations of methane, they said. But now, researchers have gone even further, suggesting that methane hydrates could be responsible for the disappearances of ships and aircraft under supposedly mysterious circumstances in the Bermuda Triangle.The Bermuda Triangle is a region some people say exists in the North Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico; many others dispute its existence. But regardless of whether the Bermuda Triangle exists, the idea that methane release could sink ships holds some water, scientists say. "It is very probable that the similar sinkholes in the ocean were produced as a result of decomposing gas hydrates,"said Vladimir Romanovsky, a geophysicist who studies permafrost at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, but who was not involved in the study. Methane is normally solid under the crushing pressures of the deep sea, but chunks of the icelike substance can break off and form gas bubbles that rise to the surface. In fact, a 2003 study published in the American Journal of Physics found that such bubbles could indeed sink ships, at least in principle. Such large-scale methane releases have not been reported in recent history, when the ship and airplane disappearances supposedly took place within the Bermuda Triangle. The last time the ocean floor was venting gas in that area was after the last ice age, about 20,000 years ago, Phrampus said. "I personally see it as an interesting theory and nothing more," he said. The U.S. Navy does not believe the Bermuda Triangle exists, and the U.S. Board on Geographic Names does not recognize it as an official name. The rate at which carbon emissions warmed Earth's climate almost 56 million years ago resembles modern, global warming much more than previously believed but involved two pulses of carbon to the atmosphere, researchers at the University of Utah, the University of Michigan and three other universities found. The findings mean the so-called Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum, or PETM, can provide clues to the future of modern climate change. The good news: Earth and most species survived. The bad news: It took millennia to recover from the episode, when temperatures rose by 9-to-15 degrees Fahrenheit (5-to-8 degrees Celsius). "There is a positive note in that the world persisted, it did not go down in flames, it has a way of self-correcting and righting itself," said University of Utah geochemist Gabe Bowen, lead author of the study published today in the journal Nature Geoscience. "However, in this event it took almost 200,000 years before things got back to normal." U-M's Philip Gingerich is a coauthor of the paper and a principal investigator of the National Science Foundation grant sponsoring the Wyoming coring project that led to the paper. First author Bowen was an undergraduate in the U-M Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. Another of the paper's authors, William Clyde of the University of New Hampshire, received his doctorate under Gingerich at U-M. Two of Gingerich's sons, now U-M undergraduates, worked on the project as well. "It is surprising to find that the onset of the PETM is characterized by not one but two successive carbon release events, separated by a recovery to background levels," said Gingerich. "This two-step onset is a working hypothesis based on evidence not seen elsewhere that will now be tested further and probed to understand its implications for the cause of PETM greenhouse warming." These banded sedimentary rock layers of the Willwood formation in Wyoming were drilled and sampled to obtain details of a global warming period almost 56 million years ago. erage of 3 petagrams per year—even closer to the rate 55.5 million years ago. Each pulse of carbon emissions lasted no more than 1,500 years. Pre- The study was led by Gabe Bowen, an associate professor of geology and geophysics at the University of Utah. These banded sedimentary rock layers of the Willwood formation in Wyoming were drilled and sampled to obtain details of a global warming period almost 56 million years ago. The study was led by Gabe Bowen, an associate professor of geology and geophysics at the University of Utah. Bowen, Gingerich and their colleagues report that carbonate or limestone nodules in Wyoming sediment cores show the global warming episode 55.5 million-to-55.3 million years ago involved the average annual release of a minimum of 0.9 petagrams (1.98 trillion pounds) of carbon to the atmosphere, and probably much more over shorter periods. That is "within an order of magnitude of, and may have approached, the 9.5 petagrams (20.9 trillion pounds) per year associated with modern anthropogenic carbon emissions," the researchers wrote. Since 1900, human burning of fossil fuels emitted an av- vious conflicting evidence indicated the carbon release lasted anywhere from less than a year to tens of thousands of years. The new research shows atmospheric carbon levels returned to normal within a few thousand years after the first pulse, probably as carbon dissolved in the ocean. It took up to 200,000 years for conditions to normalize after the second pulse. The new study also ruled as unlikely some theorized causes of the warming episode, including an asteroid impact, slow melting of permafrost, burning of organic-rich soil or drying out of a major seaway. Instead, the findings suggest, in terms of timing, that more likely causes included melting of seafloor methane ices known as clathrates, or volcanism heating organic-rich rocks and releasing methane. Gray, roundish nodules of carbonate or limestone in these sediment cores drilled from northern Wyoming revealed the amount of carbon in the atmosphere, oceans, plants and soils during the Paleocene-Eocene global NASA Rover finds active and ancient organic chemistry on Mars NASA's Mars Curiosity rover has measured a tenfold spike in methane, an organic chemical, in the atmosphere around it and detected other organic molecules in a rock-powder sample collected by the robotic laboratory's drill. "This temporary increase in methane -sharply up and then back down -- tells us there must be some relatively localized source," said Sushil Atreya of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, a member of the Curiosity rover science team. "There are many possible sources, biological or non-biological, such as interaction of water and rock." Researchers used Curiosity's onboard Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) laboratory a dozen times in a 20-month period to sniff methane in the atmosphere. During two of those months, in late 2013 and early 2014, four measurements averaged seven parts per billion. Before and after that, readings averaged only one-tenth that level. Curiosity also detected different Martian organic chemicals in powder drilled from a rock dubbed Cumberland, the first definitive detection of organics in surface materials of Mars. These Martian organics could either have formed on Mars or been delivered to Mars by meteorites. Organic molecules, which contain carbon and usually hydrogen, are chemical building blocks of life, although they can exist without the presence of life. Curiosity's findings from analyzing samples of atmosphere and rock powder do not reveal whether Mars has ever harbored living microbes, but the findings do shed light on a chemically active modern Mars and on favorable conditions for life on ancient Mars. "We will keep working on the puzzles these findings present," said John Grotzinger, Curiosity project scientist of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. "Can we learn more about the active chemistry causing such fluctuations in the amount of methane in the atmosphere? Can we choose rock targets where identifiable organics have been preserved?" Researchers worked many months to determine whether any of the organic material detected in the Cumberland sample was truly Martian. Curiosity's SAM lab detected in several samples some organic carbon compounds that were, in fact, transported from Earth inside the rover. However, extensive testing and analysis yielded confidence in the detection of Martian organics. Identifying which specific Martian organics are in the rock is complicated by the presence of perchlorate minerals in Martian rocks and soils. When heated inside SAM, the perchlorates alter the structures of the organic compounds, so the identities of the Martian organics in the rock remain uncertain. "This first confirmation of organic carbon in a rock on Mars holds much promise," said Curiosity Participating Scientist Roger Summons of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge. "Organics are important because they can tell us about the chemical pathways by which they were formed and preserved. In turn, this is informative about Earth-Mars differences and whether or not particular environments represented by Gale Crater sedimentary rocks were more or less favorable for accumulation of organic materials. The challenge now is to find other rocks on Mount Sharp that might have different and more extensive inventories of organic compounds." Researchers also reported that Curiosity's taste of Martian water, bound into lakebed minerals in the Cumberland rock more than three billion years ago, indicates the planet lost much of its water before that lakebed formed and continued to lose large amounts after. SAM analyzed hydrogen isotopes from water molecules that had been locked inside a rock sample for billions of years and were freed when SAM heated it, yielding information about the history of Martian water. The ratio of a heavier hydrogen isotope, deuterium, to the most common hydrogen isotope can provide a signature for comparison across different stages of a planet's history. "It's really interesting that our measurements from Curiosity of gases extracted from ancient rocks can tell us about loss of water from Mars," said Paul Mahaffy, SAM principal investigator of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. The ratio of deuterium to hydrogen has changed because the lighter hydrogen escapes from the upper atmosphere of Mars much more readily than heavier deuterium. In order to go back in time and see how the deuterium-to-hydrogen ratio in Martian water changed over time, researchers can look at the ratio in water in the current atmosphere and water trapped in rocks at different times in the planet's history. Martian meteorites found on Earth also provide some information, but this record has gaps. No known Martian meteorites are even close to the same age as the rock studied on Mars, which formed about 3.9 billion to 4.6 billion years ago, according to Curiosity's measurements. The ratio that Curiosity found in the Cumberland sample is about onehalf the ratio in water vapor in today's Martian atmosphere, suggesting much of the planet's water loss occurred since that rock formed. However, the measured ratio is about three times higher than the ratio in the original water supply of Mars, based on the assumption that supply had a ratio similar to that measured in Earth's oceans. This suggests much of Mars' original water was lost before the rock formed. Curiosity is one element of NASA's ongoing Mars research and preparation for a human mission to Mars in the 2030s. Caltech manages the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, and JPL manages Curiosity rover science investigations for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. The SAM investigation is led by Paul Mahaffy of Goddard. Two SAM instruments key in these discoveries are the Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer, developed at Goddard, and the Tunable Laser Spectrometer, developed at JPL. warming episode some 56 million years ago. A University of Utah-led study concluded the episode was more like modern, global warming than previously thought Gray, roundish nodules of carbonate or limestone in these sediment cores drilled from northern Wyoming revealed the amount of carbon in the atmosphere, oceans, plants and soils during the Paleocene-Eocene global warming episode some 56 million years ago. "The Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum has stood out as a striking, but contested, example of how 21stcentury-style atmospheric carbon dioxide buildup can affect climate, environments and ecosystems worldwide," said Bowen, an associate professor of geology and geophysics at the University of Utah. "This new study tightens the link. Carbon release back then looked a lot like fossil-fuel emissions today, so we might learn a lot about the future from changes in climate, plants and animal communities 55.5 million years ago." Bowen cautioned, however, that global climate already was much warmer than today's when the Paleocene-Eocene warming began, and there were no ice caps, "so this played out on a different playing field than what we have today." The Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum was first recognized by its effect on the evolution of life documented in the fossil record. On land, the PETM is a faunal change event marking the first appearance of the earliest ancestors of cows, sheep, horses and primates in the fossil record. Gingerich's U-M research team was responsible for this discovery, starting in the 1970s and early 1980s, working on the Polecat Bench PaleoceneEocene stratigraphic section in northwestern Wyoming—the same stratigraphic section analyzed in great detail in the new Nature Geoscience paper. Gingerich continues to study details of the Paleocene-Eocene faunal transition at Polecat Bench as a way to understand implications of presentday greenhouse warming. Cuba - Cruise ship's Grand Central Station Could a Cuban beach vacation be the next big thing for American travelers? Certainly, it appears more Americans will have the opportunity to visit the island nation as a result of the newly announced trade and political agreement between the United States and Cuba. While the agreement stops short of permitting travel strictly for tourism purposes — no actual beach vacations, in other words — it does allow it for a range of other reasons, including family visits. Travel professionals are hopeful, however, that the agreement is setting the stage for an era of full and free access to Cuba, especially given that today’s news included word that the U.S. will reopen its embassy in Cuba. Either way, travel professionals say there is significant pent-up demand among Americans to see Cuba. Cuban President Raul Castro said that U.S. President Barack Obama deserved the "respect and recognition" of Cuba after the countries restored diplomatic relations. “It has been the forbidden fruit,” says Steve Loucks, a spokesman for Travel Leaders, a major travel agency based in Plymouth, Minn. Loucks points out that when Travel Leaders surveyed its agents earlier this year, it found that a majority (55%) had clients who had expressed interest in Cuba. But as Loucks and other travel professionals note, the attractions of Cuba go beyond the “forbidden” aspect. The island nation has many of the advantages of other Caribbean destinations — think beaches and sunny skies — but adds to that a couple of others. Namely, a rich sense of history, going all the way back to the time of Columbus, and a close proximity to the United States. The proximity could also make Cuba a major draw for cruise ships, says Carolyn Spencer Brown, editor in chief of the Cruise Critic site. But she says the cruise market could take a little longer to develop because the country lacks the physical infrastructure — meaning proper docks and ports — to support larger ships.

FORMAN CLERK OF THE CIRCUIT COURT A TRUE COPY By: Jasmine Shivers Deputy Clerk A TRUE COPY Publish December 25, 2014, January 1, 8, 15, 2015 Does the Presidential Executive Order on Immigration even exist? On November 20, in a prime-time speech, President Barack Obama announced that he was taking “executive action” to stop deportation of some five million illegals (undocumented immigrants?). “Executive action” generally means an Executive Order or a Presidential Memorandum, although the distinction between the two is somewhat blurred. Both are published in the Federal Register, and are considered to have the force of law. But where is that executive action? As of last week, no such order or memo, supposedly signed by the President on November 20th, exists in the Federal Registry. Earlier this year, Texas Attorney, Orly Taitz filed an action in a Brownsville, Texas Federal District Court (Orly Taitz v. Jeh Johnson – Secretary of Homeland Security) seeking to stop the trafficking of illegal aliens, the spread of crime, terror, poverty and infectious diseases. On November 25, 2014, Taitz filed a motion in that case to require the Federal Government to produce a copy of Obama’s executive action, because it is not in the Federal Registry. Taitz is also asking the federal judge to rule on the Constitutionality of the order or memorandum, assuming it exists. Taitz v. Johnson parallels a lawsuit filed by 17 states challenging the President’s action to protect illegal aliens from deportation. Speculation abounds why no order or memorandum can be found. An article authored by Dr. Jerome Corsi suggests that Obama may have wanted to avoid Republicans being able to bring impeachment proceedings, and decided to have the federal executive action filed by DHS Secretary Johnson, placing him (instead of the President) in a position to be impeached in case Republicans decide to act. Corsi says that a memorandum referring to immigration changes was signed by Secretary Jeh Johnson and was filed on November 26, 2014, in the Federal Registry. Despite media hype and reporting, when Obama traveled to Nevada and amid fanfare signed two executive orders, neither had anything to do with immigration. Apparently the reports of Presidential Action were released by the White House to the media pool, and none or the reporters were permitted to be present at the actual signing. Garner ... CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 RD had installed gun racks on the inner ring of the cage up top so when traveling over rough ground, they would be held securely and out of the way. We had already removed the guns from the racks, loaded them, checked the safeties and now we were ready if we jumped a deer. Traveling through the mud, water and weeds, we had to watch very carefully for stumps, logs, holes or ditches, because we were traveling along a good clip probable 20-25 MPH and this was fast for the terrain we were in and being up in the tower, about 15 feet above the jeep, every swing and sway of the jeep was multiplied where we were riding and at times it seemed as if we might turn over, and if Dub made a quick turn for any reason, we would have. Suddenly, as it always seemed to happen, a deer jumped up about a hundred yards ahead of us and was running straightway at full speed. RD told Dub to step on the gas and close the distance, meanwhile, the dogs had gotten the scent of the deer and were now running and barking although they could not see the deer they knew where it was and where it was heading. RD had become impatient and without warning, he fired at the running deer and missed. Robert shouted not shoot, that it was a doe but RD had already committed and fired again and down went the deer, his bullet had hit her. CONTINUED NEXT WEEK... Eastern returns... CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “This is more than a thrill,” former Easter Airlines flight attendant Juliana Scott said. “This is a rebirth of our family coming back together.” For now, this is Eastern Airline’s only plane. But the airline plans to add 20 more planes and will begin charter flights in March. The company has 50 employees, but that number will take off as the flights do. “As we add each airplane, we will add somewhere between 30 and 40 people,” Eastern Airlines President and Chief Executive officer Ed Wegel said. “So by the end of next year we anticipate having seven or eight airplanes in operation, so we’ll be at (400) to 500 employees.” Miami-Dade County Commissioner Audrey Edmonson was an Eastern Airlines flight attendant from 1972 to 1987. “It meant a lot to me,” Edmonson said of the airline’s return. “As a kid growing up I used to look at the flight attendants and say, ‘That’s what I am going to be.’ And that was one of the first jobs I applied for.” Asked if she had any plans to get back in the air, Edmonson said, “As a passenger, yes.” When charters begin they will service the Caribbean, Mexico and northern portions of South America.
