On April 2, 2009,high-speed, cross-county chasended after York rammed a stolenvehicle into White’s patrol vehicle,killing the officer immediately.After reading the sentencing,those close to Randy White wereable to confront York.Janet used her victim impactstatement to talk about the type ofman her husband was and told Yorkhe could still be a good man himself.“My one request to you, and pleaselisten to me,” Janet said to Yorkacross the table. “Do something goodwith your life. Even though it will allbe in prison, I beg you, please makesomething good from the bad.”His large, hunched and brokenlookingframe was covered in theblack-and-white stripes of a jail uniform.During most of the statements,he looked straight down, shouldersshuddering from an occasional silentsob. But for one moment, Yorklifted his head and showed the widowhis bloodshot eyes.“You can hate cops, hate the D.A.for not offering something else oryou can change,” Mrs. White said.“You can spend the rest of your lifetrying to make good out of the bad.You’ll still get to visit your sons, seeuards and doctors, and even makeome friends. You’ll be able to influnceall of them.“You will spend the rest of yourife in prison, but you will still beble to make choices.”Janet conveyed how much the lossf her husband impacted her life,ut she was thankful the last wordshey spoke to each other were, “Iove you.”Several hours before White beganis final shift, he made sure he conveyedthat message.“He laid down and said, ‘I needyou to know how much I love you,’’’she said. “He always said that, butthere was something different aboutit.”At one point she pulled out asmall, brightly colored picture. Ithad been painted by her daughter,Jadyn. She found it folded in herslain husband’s wallet.“Even though he died when shewas only 5, she will always knowhow much her daddy loved her,” shesaid.Messenger photos by Joe DutyA MOTHER’S LOVE — After Judge John Fostel read the sentence Monday, Sgt. Randy White’s mother, Judy White,gave tearful testimony in Wise County district court. Below, the widow Janet White exits the courtroom and isgreeted by a host of law enforcement officers.She also described what a caringhusband he was. The last year hewas alive, Janet suffered through about with cancer. He went with herto every doctor’s visit.“He told me he didn’t care what hehad to do, or what it cost, or whatI looked like after my two surgeriesas long as he was able to grow oldwith me. I did beat my cancer, butI didn’t get to grow old with him,”she said.Judy White gave a powerful descriptionof what it’s like for a motherto lose a son.“I was Randy’s alpha; you werehis omega,” she said. “I brought himinto this world, and you took himout of it.“Because you deliberately killedmy son that day, you drug us all intothis abyss ... You hurt my little boy.He might have been 6’ 2”, but he wasmy little boy, not just some randompolice officer, my son.”She said she is constantly remindedof his absence from her life. Sheis consumed with wanting to knowevery detail of what happened toher son that fateful day alongsideTexas 114 in south Bridgeport.“You changed me,” Judy Whitesaid. “ ... I do participate in life, butI’m fake now because I don’t care. Iam just busy being busy.”Every Bridgeport police officerattended the sentencing.

4A WISE COUNTY MESSENGER, Decatur, Texas, Thursday, October 28, 2010OPINIONOUR VIEWSWe need to say goodbye to high speed pursuitsBy BRANDON EVANSWind howled beneathlow, gray skies on Monday.Behind pink granite wallsof the Wise County Courthouse,the second floorcourtroom was eerily quietdespite being packed to capacity.Anxiety and tensionwas palpable. Emotions inthe room were pulled tight,like invisible piano stringsstretched throughout.Sniffles echoed and bouncedaround the cold, woodenroom.It was the sentencing ofStephen York, who pleadedguilty to the murder ofBridgeport Police Sgt.Randy White last month.He received life withoutparole. He also heard firsthandthe anguish of White’sclosest survivors, his wifeand mother.Judy White expressed thepain a mother feels whenlosing a son in more vividclarity than I’ve ever heard.The constant reminders,the constant need to knoweverything that happened,the constant imagining ofwhat could have been andwhat should have beenwere described in detail.She eloquently and painfullyexplained the range ofemotions she suffered andthe apathy toward all otherendeavors in the death’swake.White’s widowed wifeJanet exhibited more grace,strength and restraint thanone could imagine. Despitehaving her best friend andconfidante ripped out of herlife a year-and-a-half ago,she showed grace and mercyto her husband’s killer.But what also stuck outto me was how grateful shewas that the last words theyspoke to each other were “Ilove you.”Imagine if they’d partedways that morning withharsh words or ill tempers.Despite all the love sharedbetween two people,if they part on badterms, no matterhow minor or insignificantthe tiffwas, it would foreverleave a stain on thelast moment of timethey shared togetheron this tiny blue andgreen planet hurtlingthrough emptyspace.And no matter howhealthy, safe or cautioussomeone is, we will alwayshave to remember a finalmoment with the peoplewe love. It’s usually one weusually never see coming.This case also evokedmy own set of difficult, andeerily similar, memories.My cousin, Bruce Evans,was killed in the line ofduty in hauntingly similarcircumstances to White.Bruce was a deputy withthe Jackson County Sheriff’sDepartment in Mississippi.On the night ofJuly 18, 2000, officerswere involvedin a high-speedpursuit. Thesuspect, ChristopherDavis, washeavily involvedwith methamphetamine,justlike York. BruceEVANS had helped setup a road blockon State Route 618, severalmiles in front of the approachingchase.About a mile-and-a-halfbefore getting to the roadblock, the suspect’s vehiclecame to a stop, and it appearedthe chase was over.York also pulled off the roada mile or two before reignitinghis pursuit.And on that Mississippinight back in 2000,shots were exchanged andthe chase re-ensued. Thesuspect, Christopher Davis,then drove off the road andcrashed into Bruce’s patrolvehicle. Bruce was outsidethe vehicle. He tried to flee,but the cruiser flipped overand crushed him, leavinghim dead at the scene.Davis went on to receivelife in prison without thepossibility of parole. Bruceleft behind a wife and twochildren.Both of these courageouslaw enforcement officerswere killed due to highspeedchases. These typesof death races on publicroadways are not only extremelydeadly for officers,but also for the ever-presentcivilians oblivious to the approachingdanger.Last year a stoned teenagerstole a cattle truckin south Wise County andled officers on a dangerouschase. He could have easilycrashed into a church vanalong the way and killed adozen pre-schoolers.Are these types of pursuitseven necessary? ln allthese instances, law enforcementcould have backed off,and the suspects could havebeen tracked down laterand arrested.When a criminal grabsa hostage and has a gunto their head, officers don’tjust start shooting wildly.Other techniques are firstexplored because every lifeinvolved is considered precious.That’s what makesour system so impressive,at least until it comes topursuing criminals.When a high-speedpursuit begins, it’s basicallylike every person nearthe path of that pursuit isbeing held hostage as thecars flash past. Of course,the ultimate responsibilityfor any injury or deathrests with the suspects, butmaybe Texas law needs tochange. There needs to be adifferent protocol as to howofficers respond when highspeedpursuits begin. Orelse we can guarantee moresenseless deaths as a result.YOUR VIEWSMurraybest qualifiedI hope the voters in Precinct 3 will join me in voting forhe candidate with the best qualifications for justice ofhe peace, Ken Murray. If you judge the two candidatesy their qualifications and not the party ticket they areunning on, then you will see that Mr. Murray far exceedsrs. Hays as the one who is best suited for the job.So let’s make the right decision for our precinct, andet’s elect Ken Murray as the next justice of the peace forrecinct 3.Winford CashBoydMedia outof touchHer tone and expression loudly stated that she wasenuinely baffled and confused on the matter. “How is ithat so many of these tea party members are women?”he even went as far as to call this a phenomenon. Shes one of the talking heads of Obama’s lap dog media. Mynitial reaction was a hardy laugh followed by disgust.It used to be that the press cut away at the shroud ofies encompassing politicians and lay bare, as best theyould, true intentions. It would seem that this form ofjustice is slowly fading away right along with the representativerepublic that allowed our country to become theshining city on a hill that it is today.The pretense of her question, which obviously insinuatedthat if you are a woman you should be a liberal, I’msure is offensive to many. This pretense is faulty, and Ibelieve gender is irrelevant to the answer.Today’s liberal model of expanding government, deficitspending and confiscatory wealth redistribution has failedeverywhere and every time it has been tried throughoutworld history. Poverty, decline, collapsing currencies, misery,disease and death have always been the result.It would seem that the phenomenon exists on the otherside. How is it that one can deny the facts of history evento the point of becoming totally out of touch with the majorityof the population?Be vigilant and vote to restore your country. We are ourchildren’s only hope.Forest CartwrightDecaturVotefor HaysAssert your constitutional right to vote this November.tudy the candidates. Ask yourself, “Who best representsy beliefs, my area and my country?”Precinct 3, take a good look at Mandy Hays for justicef the peace. As possibly your only encounter with theourt, people should look upon this person as available,rustworthy, compassionate to all and impartially firm inaking decisions. Law enforcement background is not reuired,and it may not seem impartial to those who comeefore the court. It may even make some feel the court isrejudiced against them. Regardless of background, alljustices must attend the same training before taking office.Graduating from college magna cum laude, Mandy’sability to achieve the skills needed is not questionable.Mandy Hays is a business owner, seven-year teacherwith English as Second Language certification, coach,UIL director, active member in her church, sponsor ofFellowship of Christian Athletes, National Rifle Associationmember and even Texas licensed to carry a concealedhandgun. Planning to work closely with area youth andputting the JP office online, she will be visible and an e-mail or phone call away.Mandy Hays hosted two meet and greet forums, but Iam more impressed with her door-knocking, block-walking,face to face, handshaking encounters with the votersof Precinct 3. Mention her name, and everyone replies,“Oh, I met her.” If you haven’t met her yet, you must nothave been home. She doesn’t just sit back and wait but isdeeply dedicated and driven day after day to come to you.Isn’t that what we need?Vote for Mandy Hays. She will open her door to you orknock on yours in her effort to serve you.Alice LeeRhomeExercise yourright to voteAs Americans, (whether Republican, Democrat oranything else) one of our greatest freedoms is the right toexercise our voice in government and vote.We are very fortunate in Wise County to have anextremely professional and conscientious election administratorin Lannie Noble and his staff of Dan Teed andKaren Valenzuela.The election also requires the dedicated service of electionjudges from both parties to effectively operate all ofthe polling locations in early voting and on Election Day.Many commentators have described this election as oneof the most important in our lifetime. I agree, but notethat all elections are important in order for this countryto remain strong and to lead the free world.I urge all citizens of Wise County to vote for your respectivecandidates. My grandmother always told us, “Ifyou don’t vote, you cannot complain about the results.”Allen WilliamsonWise CountyRepublican ChairmanCouncil interferingwith rightsSince several tapes of city council meetings here inNewark mysteriously became blank, I have been videotapingthe city council meetings. I do this at my own expense.I ask the city for nothing, and I upload them onto theInternet as a free public service.Instead of taking advantage of this free service, certaincity council members have interfered with my videotaping.Each and every time after I have completely set upmy equipment, I have been told to move, and I have complied.It takes several minutes to set up again, so thoseminutes are not recorded because the council refuses topause as the law tells them.

He says hehas found salvation through forgivinghimself for his faults.“When I renewed my mind, ashe wants me to, that truth set mefree. Getting that revelation impactedme so much,” Jones said.“My thinking had been conformedto how the world saw me. I wasunable to break those beliefsabout me.”As each resident successfullycompletes another day in theministry, they look to a time whenthey will serve the ministry andtheir new relationship with God.“I want to teach people — 17, 18and 19 — what it’s like to be inprison. That ain’t a life,” Salazarsaid. “I want to talk to young peopleabout my testimony and gettheir life straight and to serve.“I’m going to be part of thisministry. I want to do everything.I want to serve. I might be apreacher. I might open up a homefor Hispanic people who can’tspeak English.”For Salazar and the other residents,their faith has cleared theway for a future they never believedthey’d have.“Look at me now.

I dohowever have an opinion about Mr. Ken Murray’squalifications, not the qualifications that can belisted on paper, but the intangible qualificationsthat make up a person’s character.Mr. Murray and I were both employed by ChicoI.S.D. for a number of years. When it comes totalking about a person’s character, there is no finerman than Mr. Murray. As a teacher, he always conductedhimself in a professional manner regardlessof who he was dealing with.He worked hard with his alternative placementstudents to ensure that they received a qualityeducation, and at the same time, he treated thosestudents with respect, and received respect inreturn.Mr. Murray is an honest, hard-working familyman who is constantly seeking out ways to staycurrent in the field of education and in law enforcement.He does not let his personal bias interferewith his ability to solve conflicts, which is so importantin the role of a judge. Organization, communicationand the ability to follow the letter of the laware positive traits that he can bring to the office ofjudge.With Mr. Murray you get a man who is honest,the type of man that people can say, “His handshakeis as good as his word.” A judge should be aperson who can bring dignity, respect, knowledgeand a love of the law to the bench, and that typeof judge can be had in Precinct 3 if Mr. Murray iselected.Ann FergusonChicoHays istrue conservativeMy wife and I attended the meet and greet forMrs. Hays on Saturday, Oct. 23.

She’s a true conservative thatknows where she stands and stands firmly on herprinciples without wavering.Some of the things Mrs. Hays covered as shespoke to the group (of about 70 or so when we arrived)included her desire to serve the communitywhere she grew up. She also spoke about how awife, mother, teacher and regular person can do thejob of justice of the peace because the state of Texassays that office is closest to the average citizen, andthat’s what she is, rather than a typical politician.She also looked us in the eye and pledged to puther work ethic, knowledge, education and abilitiesto work for our community if elected. She has beenvisiting justice courts in Wise County and othernearby counties to prepare for the possibility ofserving us. She also offered to answer questionsone-on-one after asking the group if there were anyquestions.Her plans for the website are very forward thinking,where standard forms and other resourcescould be made readily available. Her small businessexperience will translate to good stewardshipof the budget for that office. This true conservativeis just what we need.Bryan BarnettBoyd✔EASE✔VALUE✔SELECTION✔SERVICE115 S.

The main topic of discussion washow to get money, said Antoinette Dunlap, eventsplanner for WCTPP.“I’ve been learning as I go, but sometimes what Ifind is quite alarming,” she said.Dunlap has been an “armchair cheerleader” ofthe tea party movement for more than a year andfound WCTPP organizer Mark Allen’s phone numberon a national website. She thought she wouldhave to go to Fort Worth to be involved in the movementbecause there was nothing like it in WiseCounty, she said.According to their website, “We exist to protestour government’s rampant and near continuoustrampling of The Bill of Rights and our naturalrights as citizens.“We protest those actions that are in violation ofthe very limited powers that the U.S. Constitutiongrants the federal government, and are aimed atevery member of the federal government who takespart in such abuses of power.”Dunlap does not consider herself to be a part ofany political party, but describes her political viewsas conservative-independent. The group is a bi-partisanone, but she began her recruiting at a WiseCounty Republican Women’s meeting.So far, 20 people have signed up.“We are all individuals, but we don’t all hear thesame things and have the same political beliefs,”she said.Dunlap herself has only been involved in theWCTPP for about three weeks, but she is takingadvantage of every chance she can to launch hergroup. She has attended other counties’ tea partymeetings and hopes the Wise County membershipexplodes in a few months.However, because the current general election isso near, WCTPP is not planning anything.“We’re looking for people of all generations whocare about the United States,” Dunlap said. “Peopleare upset. They don’t like the way things are going.”!WCTPP has a website, wisecountytparty.webs.com, or for information, call Dunlap at (940) 393-1962.!E-mail Julie at jneal@wcmessenger.com.The Update is just a simple click away...wcmessenger.com/updateFlu ShotsAvailableCost $25Meria Aulds, M.D.2014 Ben Merritt Dr. Suite A-2, DecaturMon., Tues., Thurs., 8a.m.-5p.m. • Wed., Fri., 8a.m.-Noon940-626-0052POLITICAL✪✪✪✪Jan Morrow(Republican)- IncumbentPaid pol. adv. by Jan Morrow, Decatur, TXClay Poynor(Republican)- IncumbentPaid pol. adv. by Clay Poynor, Bridgeport, TXKevin Burns(Republican) IncumbentPaid pol. adv. by Kevin Burns, Dan Faires, Treasurer, Decatur, TXTerry Ross(Republican)- IncumbentPaid pol. adv. by Terry Ross, Kelly Ross, Treasurer, Bridgeport, TXHATSINTHERINGWISE COUNTY JUSTICE OF THE PEACE, PCT. 3Mandy Hopkins Hays(Republican)Paid pol. adv. by Mandy Hopkins Hays, Rebecca Parr, Treasurer, Boyd, TXKen Murray(Democrat)Paid pol. adv. by Ken Murray, David A.

Valley View will probablyneed to beat Chico and Lindsay tomake the playoffs.While Valley View has struggledto get wins over the past six games,Carter said they are still very dangerous.“They are better than their record,”he said. “They are big on bothsides of the football. A.J. Kassenand Willis are special athletes.”Willis managed just one scorelast week against Muenster’stough defense. The week before ina blowout of Petrolia, he ran forthree scores, threw for two andcaught one.FOOTBALLPanthers look for rebound against PonderBy RICHARD GREENEAfter starting the season at 5-0, the Paradise Panthers are suddenlyon the brink of falling outof the District 5-2A playoff race.The Panthers (6-2, 1-2) wereput in the precarious positionlast week with a 35-14 loss to rivalBoyd.“We’re in a must-win situationnow,” said Paradise coach DannyNeighbors after last week’sgame.The first of the Panthers’ twomust-win games is Friday whenthey welcome the Ponder Lions(2-6, 0-3) to Panther Stadium.Against Boyd, the Pantherswere plagued by mishaps. Paradiseturned the ball over fourtimes.“We made too many mistakes towin the game,” Neighbors said.The Paradise defense, whichcame into the game allowing just248 yards, surrendered 463 toBoyd.The Panthers will try to reboundagainst a Ponder teamthat has struggled to score pointsin district play. In losses to Callisburg,Pottsboro and Howe, the Lionshave been outscored 148-28.Ponder is coming off a 43-10loss to Howe.Quarterback Dalton Brownleads the Lions, throwing for 824yards and five touchdowns.

The Bulldogs (4-4, 1-2)will head to Jacksboro ISDStadium to try to change thetrend against the Tigers (4-4, 2-1) Friday at 7:30 p.m.Alvord fell to District 3-2A’s lone unbeaten team,the Holliday Eagles, lastweek 30-6. The setback putthe Bulldogs behind fourother district teams — Holliday,Henrietta, Jacksboroand City View — with twogames to play.Alvord coach Don Dewebersaid they have just onepath to the playoffs.“We’ve got to win the nexttwo games,” he said. “That’swhat it comes down to.”That change starts withtaking down the potent Tigers,led by quarterbackCarson Earp. The sophomorehas thrown for 2,400yards and 28 touchdowns.“He throws the ball well,”Deweber said. “He’s the sonof one of the assistants andis a smart kid and knowstheir offense. They also havea couple of good receivers.”Dalton Tisdale has caught51 passes for 937 yards and14 scores. Taylor Spear alsohas more than 50 catchesand 750 yards.Deweber expects his secondaryto be up for the taskof trying to slow the Tigers.“We’ve been working onwhat they do, and I feel goodabout our secondary,” hesaid.The Bulldogs will needits rushing attack, led byColton Redman, to keep theball away from Jacksboro.Redman has 1,102 yardsthis season. He ran for 90last week against Holliday.“Hopefully we can sustainsome drives and notturn the ball over,” Dewebersaid. “They’ve given up somepoints.”

While this is generallya safe surgical procedure that is entirely warranted under certaincircumstances, it does require a longer recovery time than vaginalbirth and poses some risks that vaginal delivery does not. With thisin mind, it’s important for pregnant women to take a close look atelective labor induction, which may be performed for the sake ofconvenience. The link between labor induction and C-section isimportant to note because research suggests that putting more limitson so-called “elective” inductions may help lower the number ofC-sections performed nationally. Labor induction performed for nomedical reason may be considered inappropriate.Giving birth can be beautiful, exciting and frightening all at once.Our goal is to make your experience as safe and happy as possiblefor both you and your newborn.

While the damage persists, blood vessels in theretina begin to leak fl uid, leading to a condition known as “diabetic macularedema” (DME). As fluid collects in the macula (the central portion of the retina),blurred vision may progress to blindness. The good news for the nearly 45% ofdiabetics who are affected by this condition is that a new medication may bethe fi rst new treatment for DME in 25 years. Ranibizumab, which was initiallydeveloped to treat age-related macular degeneration, has also been found toimprove the vision of those with DME. This drug may be used in conjunctionwith laser treatment.Currently, the standard care for diabetic macular edema (DME) is laserphotocoagulation, which is used to seal leaky blood vessels in diabetics’ eyes.High blood-sugar levels can damage blood vessels in the retina, which senseslight and sends images to the brain. The damage to the retinal vessels iscalled diabetic retinopathy. Whether you are diabetic or pre-diabetic, it isimportant to maintain strict control of your blood sugar and have routine eyeexams. November is Diabetic Eye Disease Month. Please call us at 940-626-0045 to schedule a comprehensive eye health examination that includesscreening for diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema.

ALL AROUND WISE, Decatur, Texas, Thursday, October 28, 2010 9OutdoorPink caladiums looking greenBy NEIL SPERRYDear Neil: What causescaladiums that are supposedto be mostly pink to turn outmostly dark green with onlya bit of pink?There are at least threepossible causes. If you growcaladiums in extremelyheavy shade they’ll losemuch of their foliage color.If you apply a high-nitrogenfertilizer to stimulate productionof more leaves, it oftencauses the leaves to losemuch of their variegation.Also, it’s also possible thatyou got a different variety.There are so many types,all with different color patterns.Dear Neil: What is the reallyshort weed with milkystems, and will 2,4-D kill it?That’s spurge, and, yes,weedkillers containing 2,4-D will kill it handsomely.You’ll have to hand-treatear desirable broadleafedlants, however. You mightven try a glyphosate maerialspot-treated onto thepurge if it’s growing inare-ground areas.For the record, spurge islmost through for this seaon.You probably shouldjust address things earliernext year. Actually, scrapingit out with a hoe isn’tall that difficult. Follow thatwith a 1-inch layer of mulch,and your problems shouldbe minimal.Dear Neil: My Arizonaash has lost its leaves in anunusual manner this fall.Half the tree wentbare in early September,and theother half is turningyellow now,at a more normaltime. What mighthave caused that?Very likely ithas borers. Theytunnel throughthe wood of thetrunk, cutting offsupply lines to theleaves. When theyget bad enough, part or allof the tree will die. Arizonaash trees’ life expectancy inTexas, unfortunately, is lessthan 10 years. Some treeswill live much longer, butothers will die very youngbecause of the borers.You can try a borer preventivespray on four weekintervals next growing season,but it probably won’tmake a lot of difference atthis point. For the record,it’s also possible that thereis some type of injury to thetrunk or root system. Take acloser look.Dear Neil: What shouldI do with a moth orchid?I was given one for my anniversary,and I don’t wantanything bad to happen to it.How much light and waterdo they need, and what do Iuse to fertilize it?Phalaenopsis orchids dobest in bright indoor light(near an east window, forexample). Keep it in a porouspotting medium so thatits large, fleshyroots won’t staywaterlogged. Usea diluted, watersolubleorchidspecialty fertilizerwith each watering.Gardener’sMailbagThey bloomabout the sametime each year,with many typeshitting their peaksin the springtime.Still, you’ll findthem offered in full bloom ingarden shops at other times,too. The best news is that it’sone of the easiest and prettiestof all the orchid types.Dear Neil: Will you pleasetell me how to get my trumpetvine to bloom? I have severalDecatur, TX3936 South Highway 287, Suite 4940-626-8032plants, and this is the secondyear with no flowers.Trumpet vines need fullsun, rather impoverishedsoil (avoid any nitrogen fertilizersnear them), and amplemoisture. Avoid heavypruning that would promotestrong regrowth at the expenseof flowers.Dear Neil: I have a mulberrytree that came up volunteerin my yard severalyears ago. It produces quantitiesof delicious fruit everyspring, and the birds flock inby the score. Are there anydrawbacks to it in my landscape?Fruiting mulberries areactually very nice trees, solong as you can plant themwhere they won’t stain patios,walks and driveways.Otherwise, just take normalgood tree care of it, andit should last you for manyyears.Dear Neil: I am frustratedwith my bromeliads. They’rethe broad-leafed type withvariegated leaves and exoticpink and lavender flowers.For 15 years now they havegrown well, but no blooms.What am I doing wrong?I have them indoors overthe winter and on a shadedporch during the summer.By now you probably havea good many plants fromthose original parents. Whydon’t you try giving some ofthe plants more light thanNOWOPEN!DOGGIE BOUTIQUEHOME DECORBABY BOUTIQUEthey’ve been getting. Mostfolks find their bromeliadsbloom best when they’rekept in morning sun most ofthe year. Many types bloomin late winter and spring,so yours may have been seriouslydeficient in light atthat very important time.!Have a question you’dlike Neil to consider?

10 ALL AROUND WISE, Decatur, Texas, Thursday, October 28, 2010BooksCROSSWORD PUZZLEDon’t fear digital booksBy KRISTEN TRIBEI’ll admit it. Ebooks giveme anxiety.Although I realize thisis the inevitabledestination of thepublishing world,I’ve been slow toadapt. I’ve fiddledaround with an e-reader, but whilePumpkinsprovide aaste of fall ...Continued from page 8Place pumpkin halves, cutside down, on a large cookiesheet. Bake at 350 degreesF for one hour or until forktender.With the microwave method:Place halves cut-sidedown on a microwave-safeplate or tray. Cook on highfor 15 minutes; check fordoneness. If necessary continuecooking at 1-2 minuteintervals until fork tender.Now we’re ready to preparethe puree.When the pumpkin is coolenough to handle, removethe peel using a small sharpknife and your fingers. Putthe peeled pumpkin in a foodprocessor and puree, or usea food mill, strainer or potatomasher to form a puree.Don’t let your cooked pumpkinsit at room temperaturelonger than two hours in theprocess of making puree.Now the puree is ready tobe used to create your favoritepumpkin dishes!For information on foodsafety and nutrition, callthe Wise County Extensionoffice at (940) 627-3341.Bookendspushing buttonsand gazing at thescreen, I missedthe aesthetic pleasuresof a realbook.But I realizethat while my“real” books maybe my treasure,the digital formats are themedium in which I will likelybe working and readingon a day-to-day basis in thefuture.Until this point, ebooksmay have seemed out ofreach or intimidating tomany, but librarian CeciliaBarham at the DecaturPublic Library is hoping tochange that and ensure thatWise County readers keepup with publishing trends.Patrons will soon be ableto check out ebooks anddownloadable audio booksfrom the library, and lastweek she gave me a sneakpeek of the system.Barham began consideringthe digital plunge lastspring, and after a lot ofresearch, legwork and finetuningthe site, she expectsit to “go live” by mid-November.Even though Barham admitsshe prefers a real bookin some cases, she said, “atthe end of the day, there isno way I can deny that thisis the direction books are goingto go.“I think it’s part of the futureof literacy and readingin libraries, and we can’t beleft behind,” she said. “Andwe can’t let the communitybe behind because we’re notleading the way.”As part of the North TexasRegional Library System(NTRLS), Barham hadthe opportunity to join theNorth Texas Overdrive Consortium,which gives the Decaturlibrary, along with 13others, access toa collection of 400ebooks and 2,182audio books.Overdrive is thesoftware used todistribute digitalbooks, and the consortiumprogramallowed Barhamto have access tothe software fora greatly reducedprice. New releasesand bestsellerswill be added tothe collection everymonth, and Barham saidif there are leftover funds,that money will be used topurchase “special request”titles from specific libraries.The ebooks or audio bookscan be downloaded to yourcomputer and put on a Sonye-reader, iPad, nook, iPod,and most smart phones.The software is not compatiblewith Amazon’s Kindlebecause the company is notworking with library vendorsto distribute content.But even if you don’t havean e-reader, you can read thebooks directly on your computer,whether it’s a Mac orPC, and you can even burnthe audio books to CD if youdon’t have an iPod.Barham said just like aphysical book, these itemscan only be checked out toone person at a time, butholds can also be placed onitems, just like with thingsRABIDHALLOWEENFestSaturday, Oct. 30 • 9am-1pmWise County Animal Shelterwill offer a rabies clinic andfestival activities.• Games • Food• Vendors • Bounce HousePrizes for Pet and OwnerHalloween Costumesfrom the regular stacks.Barham walked methrough a checkout, and theprocess seemed intuitive.The site will be accessiblefrom a link on the library’smain page, and it resemblesa book-buying site withbooks divided into categories.Users will log into the systemwith their library cardnumber and PIN number.To get started, everyone hasto download the Overdrivesoftware and Adobe DigitalEditions, which is easy withstep-by-step instructions.Each checkout is for twoweeks, and at the end of thattime, the title “disappears”from your device.In addition to checking outbooks through Decatur PublicLibrary, there will also bea links to Project Gutenbergand Blio, two other siteswith digital content.Barham said like any libraryservice, she and herstaff will support it 100 percent,and they will be able toguide patrons through theprocess.“It is the way reading isgoing to go,” she said. “If wecan make it accessible, thenwhen it’s the most commonway, people won’t be afraidof it.”!Kristen Tribe is assistanteditor at the Wise CountyMessenger.

16 ALL AROUND WISE, Decatur, Texas, Thursday, October 28, 2010Inside the FrameFear mixedwith fun“I must not fear. Fear is the mindkiller.Fear is the little-death thatbrings total obliteration.” — FrankHerbert, “Dune”Gore, macabre, death, horror, tortureand pain generate fear; bloodcurdling,ice-veined, paralytic fear.Fear is something we avoid. Itclouds judgment and reason. Itshudders the soul. But during onetime of the year we embrace it. Weseek it, both young and old alike. Thesky darkens. Trees shed foliage andbare skeletal limbs, twisted as if inagony by howling wind. Fall begins,and Halloween creeps upon us. Andfor some strange, deep, psychologicalreason, we want to be scared.Our roaming photographer translatedthat sense of fear mixed withinsane jubilation at a fright house inRhome two years ago. The dilapidatedand abandoned white block schoolhouse created a perfect setting.Using available light with a sideflash created depth while maintaininga subdued, spooky feel.So get scared this Halloween. Visitthe local ghoul house in Alvord or goon the haunted hayride in Rhome.Wallow in the fear. Because in theend, we don’t really enjoy the gravefear itself, we crave the euphoricsense of relief and safety that follows.It’s hard to know pleasure, untilyou first understand discomfort.For more Inside the Frame images,visitwww.joeduty.com/blogNook ‘N CranniesAntiquesisBUYING!Old Coins - Currency - Gold & Silver JewelryFree Estimates - AppraisalsJerry BethurumCell: 940-393-1815 Office: 940-626-1588On the Square in DecaturRANDYWILLIAMSBUICK • CHEVY •CADILLACGMC •HYUNDAI•PRE-OWNED940-627-2177Let RANDY SAVE YOU MONEY onYour Next NEW or PRE-OWNED Vehicle!Who should you trustwith your OB/GYN care?Decatur Women’s Health Centeroffers a full range of obstetrical and gynecologicalcare for women at every stage of life.(Left to Right) Melissa Bradley, Dr. Douglas Kyle, Kim Mote, Patricia Ruiz“Friendly, professional and confidential.”Your health and well-being as a woman are our concern.We offer a full range of obstetrical and gynecological care.Our emphasis is on making you feel comfortable,confident and reassured.Call today to schedule your next appointment.940-627-42161713 S.

There is no way topredict all possible situations. These tips arentended to reduce, not eliminate the risk ofssault.• The primary responsibility for anyexual assault rests with the offender andot the victim. Unfortunately, you can takell reasonable measures to reduce your risknd still be assaulted.• Remember that most sexual assaultsre committed by someone that the victimnows. The stranger does not pose theighest risk to you. Up to 90% of sexffenders are known to their victims andnclude relatives, friends and authoritygures.

You knowmore than your child needs to know.Use language that is honest and ageappropriate(e.g. “there are people who dobad things to children “) Include generalinformation, as this may protect them fromothers who would try to harm them aswell. If your child is likely to have contactwith the Sexually Violent Predator or otherregistered sex offenders you should showyour child the sex offender’s photo. Instructthem to avoid contact with the offenderand encourage them to tell you if he or sheinitiates contact. In general all supervisedsex offenders are prohibited from initiatingany contact with children, and any contactshould be reported to the supervisingofficer.• Teach your child. DON’T take ridesfrom strangers; DON’T harass or visit anysex offender’s home or yard.

If a childfeels listened to and believed about smalleveryday things, they are more likelyto share the big scary things with you.Be sensitive to changes in your child’sbehavior. Pay attention to your child’sfeelings and thoughts.• Role-play safety with your child.Act out scenarios of various dangeroussituations and teach them how to respond(e.g. home alone and someone comes to thedoor; separated from Mom in the toy storeand a man comes up to talk to them; orchatting on the Internet and they are askedfor their home address).SEX OFFENDERCHARACTERISTICS• Most offenders commit multiplecrimes against multiple types of victimswith whom they have varying types ofrelationships (adults, children, male,female, known and unknown.) Thisbehavior is known as crossover.• Sex offenders rarely commit just onetype of offense. Many offenders have NOcriminal history or sex crime history of anykind.• There is no such thing as a “typical”sex offender, however all tend to bemanipulative, deceptive, and secretive. Sexoffenders come from all backgrounds, ages,income levels and professions.• The majority of offenses are committedby someone the victim knows.• Sexual deviancy often begins in mid tolate adolescence.• Sex offenders do not usually committheir crimes impulsively. They usuallyemploy careful planning and preliminarysteps that, if interrupted, can prevent anactual crime.6,506(179)OK15,989(306)MN6,510(217)IA10,807(183)MO10,055(352)AR60,994 9,389(251)(213)TXLA21,394(380)WIHIPrepared by the Special Analysis UnitJune 14, 2010MIVT - 2,446(394)(296)FL30,436(156)NY46,020(460)MI10,177(82)19,288 PA(168)20,941 10,639 MD(167) OH(162) IN 3,496IL(193) 16,8138,034 WV (216)(188)VAKY12,83113,800(139)(222)NCTN12,154(271)SC5,990 12,561 18,419(204) (269) (190)MS AL GA54,1663,091(240)132(149)NorthernMarianaIslandsWeneedyourhelp!NH - 2,311(176)VTNHNJDEDC3,000(228)MEMACTRI2,121(54)48(73)MA -10,995(169)RI - 1,565(149)MD - 6,511(116)DC - 924(156)PuertoRicoCT - 5,153(147)NJ - 13,309(153)DE - 4,166(477)St. Thomas, VI andSt. John, VI37Total75 St. Croix, VI(68) 38AmericanSamoaSource:State or Territory Sex Offender RegistriesStates and PR: U.S. Census Bureau, July 2008 EstimatesTerritories: Central Intelligence Agency, World Fact Book, July 2009 EstimatesNational Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), Alexandria, VAEnvironmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), Inc., Redlands, CAMapping software donated to NCMEC by ESRISergeant Harlon Wright is the SexOffender Registrar countywide.

WISE COUNTY MESSENGER Decatur, Texas, Thursday, October 28, 2010How to Avoid Sexual Predators on the InternetCourtesy Surfing the Net with Kids – surfnetkids.comThe truth is scary. Thetruth is that there are sexualpredators lurking on theInternet. In the newspaper,there are stories all the timeabout perverted, lawless mencaught in Internet stings.These perverted, lawlessmen were pretending to becute, shy, teenage boys. Thegirls that went to meet themwere police pretending tobe innocent teenage girls.Fortunately, the storiesare about the men who getcaught and they have goodendings. That is, pervertsbehind bars. Unfortunately,there are more real girls thatshow up for those “dates”than policemen and thosestories only make the newswhen the outcome is verybad.If you think that itcouldn’t happen to you, thinkagain. Over 50% of teenageInternet users report beingpropositioned sexually. Ifyou are using the Internetto make new friends, youare the target of thesepredators. Besides not usingthe Internet, there are thingsALVORDthat you can do to avoidsexual predators.One thing you can do is bewary of chat rooms. Whilechat rooms are entertaining,they are also a popularhangout for Internet badguys. The bad guys love chatrooms where teenagers hangout, and they are very smart.If anyone ever suggests thatyou “go private” with yourchat you should suspect thatperson. Private conversationsare the first thing that abad guy will try to get youinvolved with.Never post or send sexuallysuggestive pictures. If youwouldn’t show the pictureto your grandmother, do notpost it on the Internet. Youshould actually be carefulposting any pictures atall. Perverts are just thatperverted.They might see aperfectly innocent picture andbegin to obsess about you. Itdoesn’t have to be anythingsexy, maybe they just like theshape of your eyebrows, butonce a predator notices you,you are in danger. Try not todo anything that will get younoticed.Do not engage in any kindof sexual conversation online.You have no idea who youare talking to. Even if youthink you have made a friendwith a younger teenage girland they start asking youfor sexual advice, stop. Donot engage in any sexualconversations with anybodyfor any reason.Be aware. You should knowthat there are predators outthere. Become educated abouthow they work. The bad guysspend a lot of time “grooming”their victims before theyever suggest a meeting. Apredator might pretend to besomeone your age who flirtswith you. A predator mightalso pretend to be someoneslightly older who “reallyunderstands.” They might tryto engage you in conversationby being rude or offensiveand getting you to argue withthem.Because communicationon the Internet offers nopersonal cues there isvirtually no way to tell if theperson you are chatting withis a good guy or a bad guy.Even if you get a picture ofsomebody, there is no way toknow that the person in thepicture is the person you arechatting with.The most importantrule for avoiding Internetsexual predators is to neverever go alone to meet aperson from the Internet.It doesn’t matter what thecircumstance is. If you goto meet a person from theInternet you are puttingyourself in danger. If theperson is genuine and wantsto meet with you they won’tmind meeting you with yourparents or a group of friends.In fact, it should be insultingif the person suggests thatyou meet alone. If they careenough about you to meetyou, certainly they want youto be smart and to protectyourself.Millions of people use theInternet everyday withouttroubles. There are predatorsout there but by followingthese tips and by educatingyourself you will be safe andInternet savvy.ALVORDWilliam Robert Bell606 Denver St., Alvord, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 12 • Victim Sex: FemaleALVORDThomas Roy Fowler507 School Oaks Rd., Alvord, TXIndecency with a child by exposureVictim Age: 4 • Victim Sex: FemaleAZLEJohn Richard Casaccio162 CR 1271, Alvord, TXAggravated sexual assault of a childVictim Age: 11 • Victim Sex: FemaleJody Dan Freeman4491 US Hwy. 287, Lot #22, Alvord, TXSexual assaultVictim Age: 18 • Victim Sex: FemaleChristopher Michael Green1157 West Bypass US Hwy. 287,Apt. #205 Alvord, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 6 • Victim Sex: FemaleTerry Lee McElroy413 PR 2698, Alvord, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 9 • Victim Sex: FemaleJeffery Michael Oldenburg1636 CR 1270, Alvord, TXSexual assault (Out-of-state conviction - MN)Victim Age: 16 • Victim Sex: FemaleTerry Mack Pearson251 Rollingwood Rd., Alvord, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 5 • Victim Sex: FemaleRobert Jo Fisher7616 Briar Rd., Azle, TXIndecemcy with a child, Sexual contact X2Victim Age: 4 & 9 • Victim Sex: Male & FemaleKenneth Michael Riggs143 PR 4862, Azle, TXSexual assault of a child(Solicitation to commit)Victim Age: 15 • Victim Sex: FemaleBOYDDavid Wayne Bohannan390 CR 4591, Boyd, TXAggravated sexual assaultVictim Age: 27 • Victim Sex: FemaleRusty Dwain Byrd693 CR 4790, Boyd, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 8 • Victim Sex: FemaleYvonne Ruth Dalton130 CR 4632, Boyd, TXAggravated sexual assault of a childVictim Age: 4 • Victim Sex: FemaleFranklin Allan Hatten201 Brighton Oaks Dr., Boyd, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contact X3Indecency with a child by exposureVictim Age: 8, 9, 9 & 9 • Victim Sex: MaleDennis Neal Jaynes160 CR 4692, Boyd, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 14 • Victim Sex: FemaleClay O’Brian Nelson241 CR 4899, Boyd, TXIndecency with a child by exposureVictim Age: 7 • Victim Sex: MaleBOYDBRIDGEPORTRyli Dawn Richardson1815 CR 4698, Boyd, TXIndecency with a child by exposure X2Victim Age: 15 • Victim Sex: MaleRoger Dale Smith8114 FM 51 South, Boyd, TXAggravated sexual assaultVictim Age: 13 • Victim Sex: FemaleAllen Ray Suckly II152 PR 4810, Boyd, TXAggravated sexual assaultVictim Age: 26 • Victim Sex: FemaleDaniel Eugene Abney1446 CR 3424, Bridgeport, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 8 • Victim Sex: FemaleGalelama Julian Butcher III135 PR 1512, Lot #1, Bridgeport, TXAggravated sexual assault X2,Sexual assaultVictim Age: 13 & 16 • Victim Sex: FemaleMark Allen Cooke196 CR 3203, Bridgeport, TXSexual assault of a childVictim Age: 2 • Victim Sex: MaleBRIDGEPORTTroy Eugene Gregston134 CR 3225, Bridgeport, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 13 • Victim Sex: FemaleJames Luther Hill1504 Irvin St., Bridgeport, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 12 • Victim Sex: FemaleJulio Angelo Ortega1542 Cuba Rd., Bridgeport, TXAggravated sexual assaultVictim Age: 6 • Victim Sex: FemaleTommy Carl Pendergrass156 CR 3203, Bridgeport, TXIndecncy with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 10 • Victim Sex: FemaleDickie Jay Read1024 CR 3225, Bridgeport, TXIndecency with a child, Sexual contactVictim Age: 16 • Victim Sex: MaleEmilio G.
