October 7th is Na-tional Denim Day wherewe can celebrate themany wonders of jeans!Jeans you say? Just howcan jeans be that impor-tant? Let’s do some dig-ging 4-H style…
Head—Denim mate-rial has been aroundsince the 1600s, but whatwe know as “jeans” to-day was not invented orpatented until 1873 byGerman immigrants Ja-cob Davis and LeviStrauss (yes that Levi!).The term “denim” isthought to be derivedfrom the Frenchterm “serge de Nîmes,”as the material wasthought to have originat-ed in Nîmes, France.Now here’s the kick-er…the term “jean”originated in Genoa,Italy. Jean material isactually a cheaper ver-sion of denim and ismade from a cotton,linen, and/or wool blendof the same color. Daviscombined the two meth-ods to create denimjeans adding rivets tothe pockets to increasedurability.
Heart — Modernjeans today were origi-nally created for miners,millworkers, ranchers,and cowboys. Thedurable material soonmorphed into a means ofrebellion for 1950syouth, then into a repre-sentation of egalitari-anism in the 1960s, andfinally became all aboutfashion statements inthe 1970s up to the pre-sent.
Hands — Althoughhundreds of brands anddesigns have come alongsince Davis and Strauss’original design, themethods of producingdenim and constructingjeans has remained rela-tively the same. Cottonwarp yarn dyed a specif-ic color (often blue) is in-terwoven with whitecotton filler yarn in ei-ther a left or right handtwill creating a twillweave. Originally jeanswere a cotton only prod-uct, now it is combinedwith other synthetic ma-
terials such as spandex.
Health — Levi’s®launched its global cre-ative platform this yearin which the company isencouraging youth to“Go Forth!” This initia-tive seeks to inspire pio-neering spirits to help inglobal sustainability ef-forts. Several organiza-tions use blue jeans tobring awareness to theircause as well as raisemoney for communitiesin need. Blue jeans havebecome synonymouswith strength and com-fort in today’s society.Casual Friday’s havetaken on a whole newmeaning in a time wherepeople are pulling to-gether to better the livesof others.So, there you have it:
agriculture, fashion,sewing, artisanship, sci-ence, entrepreneurship,community service, andso many more themeswe focus on in 4-H in justone little pair of jeans!If you thought this wasinteresting, just wait un-til you discover all of thewonderful projects andtopics we learn about in4-H. Stop by and discov-er your passion!

The night was cold and dreary. The sentrywas lonely as he waited alone in the darkness.
There had been word that the enemy wasclose by and he dreaded the thought that one ofthem would discover his position.
If he only knew what was going on nearhim, he would have probably died from the shock.Instead, he reached deep within himself and drewfrom the well of faith. He began to pray and then hesang the words to “Jesus, Lover of My Soul” in abeautiful loud voice.Lurking in the darkness nearby was an enemy
scouting party with all their guns aimed at theyoung Confederate soldier. They had every intentionof killing him until he sang the words “Cover my de-fenseless head with the shadow of thy wings.”The leader of the Union scouting party heard
the sentry singing and told his men, “Boys, putdown your rifles; we will go home.”Dwight Moody tells the story that years later, the
two men were on a ship crossing the Atlantic. TheUnion soldier and another man had met to singhymns together when the scout heard the voice ofthe young soldier behind him singing out in a clear,recognizable voice.The two men shared their story of God’s great
protection and provision in the darkest of times. God watches over us, even in the darkest of
nights when we’re all alone and the enemy has us inhis sights. God is the true sentry of our souls.

Very little media attention has been given tosomething that has become a huge scandal. ThisOperation Gun Walker a/k/a “Fast and Furious,”needs much attention by everyone and all media. Early this year, it was disclosed that the ATF
and Obama Justice Department had been selling2,500 assault rifles to Mexican drug connectionsin the United States to be “walked” across theMexican border. The theory being that the Amer-ican government would then be able to track theguns via their serial numbers and paint a pictureof drug cartel activity, by where the guns showedup. However, it seems that somewhere between1,200 and 1,300 of the weapons are now unac-counted for and perhaps some of the greatesttracking “success” has come where weapons con-nected with more than 200 murders were linkedto Operation Gun Walker guns. Very recently, U.S. Border Patrol Agents
found an arsenal of weapons including assault ri-fles and explosives inside the U.S. border and ac-cording to the Wall Street Journal, June 08, 2011,regarding another incident, “An arsenal found inMexico included at least five assault rifles thatU.S authorities trace to a federal operation gonebadly awry, according to government documents.The discovery appears to confirm, for the firsttime, fears cited by Republican lawmakers that aBureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explo-sives operation called Fast and Furious failed tostop guns from ending up with drug gangs inMexico.”In March, President Barack Obama acknowl-
edged that the plan was flawed and it could be thata serious mistake was made, in which case, some-one will be held accountable.Sen. Charles Grassley, Iowa Republican,
called for an independent investigation into theoperation and called for “heads to roll” and Rep.Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said the operation “looks anawful lot like Iran-Contra,” the scandal that put ashadow over Ronald Reagan’s presidency, duringcongressional hearings he chaired. John Casa,an agent at the ATF’s Phoenix Field office calledthe program “a colossal failure of leadership.”Now the idea is to use the government autho-
rized illegal gun sales as evidence that our con-stitution authorized bearing of arms needs moreregulations. . Yes, MORE REGULATIONS ARENEEDED ON THE ATF AND THE FEDERALGOVERNMENT!There must be accountability for those indi-
viduals and agencies who ordered and approvedthe illegal sale and trafficking of these weaponsthat continue to flood back into the US and are re-sponsible for so many deaths, one of which isthat of Brian Terry of the Border Patrol’s eliteTactical Unit known as BORTAC. According tofamily and coworkers, Brian was an amazingyoung man, strong, courageous and incrediblypatriotic with a nick name of “Superman”. Thisfine young man was murdered while on duty daysbefore Christmas 2010 at a distance of 18 miles in-side our border with the assistance of “THEFAST AND FURIOUS GUN WALKER”.

Madison County schools and district are dedicated to ensuring that our stu-dents succeed. While we have always had high expectations for our students, theFederal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) has raised the bar once againby setting new standards for students to meet. These standards increase everyyear, until 2014, when the standards indicate that 100% of our students will beproficient on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT).
This past year, on the 2010-2011 FCAT, it was required that students read at79% proficiency and compute mathematical equations at 80% proficiency. Thisfollowing is a list of proficiency scales for the upcoming years:
Year 2011-2012 Reading 86% Math 86%Year 2012-2013 Reading 93% Math 93%Year 2013-2014 Reading 100% Math 100%
NCLB requires states to evaluate the performance of all students in all pub-lic schools. This past summer, our state released a report on the progress ourschools are making toward achieving proficiency for 100 percent of our studentsunder NCLB. The report identifies whether schools have made “Adequate Year-ly Progress” (AYP) – a simple “yes“ or “no” grade based on a complex set ofmeasurements. The data used for the foundation of AYP incorporates the as-sessment results in grades 3-10 from the Florida Comprehensive AchievementTest (FCAT) and alternate assessments given to exceptional education students(ESE) and students with limited English proficiency (LEP).
Not making AYP does not mean that a school is failing. It means that theschool has not met a certain standards for at least one group of students. ForAYP, students at each school are tested in reading, writing, and mathematics.(Science is calculated in the school grade, but not for AYP). Performance scoresare then divided into various subgroups having at least 30 students which iden-tify students by race, socioeconomic and learning disability status. Each sub-group’s performance percentage is then rated as passing or failing according tostate standards and is used when determining the overall performance of theentire school. In addition, schools must meet graduation and attendance tar-gets. If just one subgroup misses just one target, an entire school does not makeAYP.
To be eligible for AYP, the district and each of its schools must test at least95% of the targeted participants. For 2011, the AYP’s targeted rates were 79% ofthe students scoring at or above grade level in reading and 80% of the studentsscoring at or above grade level in math. The criterion for writing is to increase1% above the previous year.
Madison County School District is classified as a “District in Need of Im-provement” and the schools that did not make AYP are classified as “Schools InNeed of Improvement.” The Federal Department of Education calls this a“SINI” status and has established requirements for each category of SINI sta-tus. The SINI status requires all Title I schools to come under Differentiated Ac-countability. This requires State and/or District to provide on-site support andrequires close progress monitoring of interventions the schools choose to put inplace.
Madison County School District earned a grade of D, and met 67% of theAYP criteria. The district failed to make AYP in Improving Graduation Rate,Reading and Math Proficiency for White, Black, Hispanic, Economically Disad-vantaged, and Students with Disabilities. The District DID make AYP in Writ-ing.
Lee Elementary School (not in DA status) earned enough points to make foran A, however they received a B grade because only 46% of their lower quartilestudents made a year’s worth of progress in Math (they had to make 50%) tomake an A. They met 100% of the AYP criteria, which makes them a “School ofChoice,” according to NCLB guidelines. This means that the District offeredany student in K-5 grade a “choice” of attending LES, with transportation pro-vided as long as they are a School of Choice. If LES is not a School of Choicenext year, the District will not provide transportation, but the students whochose to attend will be allowed to remain at that school through the end of the5th grade.
Pinetta Elementary School (Correct I – SINI 6) earned a grade of A, and met92% of the AYP criteria. PES made AYP in Writing; and in Reading for all itssubgroups, White, Black, and Economically Disadvantaged. In Math; Pinettafailed to make AYP for White, Black, and Economically Disadvantaged.
Greenville Elementary School (Correct II – SINI 7) received a grade of D,and met 90% of the AYP criteria. They DID meet AYP criteria in Writing. TheyDID make AYP in Reading for subgroups; Black and Economically Disadvan-taged. They DID NOT make AYP for both subgroups in Math.
Madison County Excel Alternative School (Correct I – SINI 5) did not earna school grade, but met 87% of the AYP criteria. They do not have 30 students intheir testing group to be eligible to be graded under the Differentiated Ac-countability plan. The school’s total population did not meet the reading ormath requirements.
Madison County Central School (Intervene) earned a school grade of D, andmet 72% of the AYP criteria. They did not make AYP in reading and math forWhite, Black, Economically Disadvantaged, and Students with Disabilities.MCCS DID make AYP in Writing.
Madison County High School (Correct II) has not received their score yet.MCHS met 74% of the AYP criteria. Their subgroups of White, Black, and Eco-nomically Disadvantaged did not make AYP in Reading or Math.
The Department of Education has classified each school that has not metAYP in a Differentiated Accountability (DA) status. Each level of DA categoryis associated with different levels of interventions from the State and District.The DA matrix of school categories can be accessed on the website at www.flb-si.org/DA/index.htm.
The district and each school is making a concentrated effort to addressthe subgroups at the schools which did not make AYP. For instance, teach-ers are “Highly Qualified” and are given training in researched based pro-grams that are utilized to aid us in reaching these goals. Also, throughoutthis school year, Madison County School District plans to reach out to en-courage more parental involvement as we move toward attaining AYP statusfor all our schools. In addition to address the subgroups not making AYP, theearly release days are dedicated to Understanding and Using Data to makeInstructional Decisions; including Differentiated Instruction for all sub-groups.
The District and each school have completed their Improvement Plans for2011-2012 and they are posted on the Department of Education, Bureau ofSchool Improvement Website at www.flbsi.org.
The School Public Accountability Reports (SPAR) that gives this data andother statistics for each school can be found at http://doeweb-prd.doe.state.fl.us/eds/nclbspar/index.cfm.

Grades and Annual Yearly Progress (AYP) Report
By William SmithSpecial from ECB Publishing
Aggressive defensive dominancepaved the way in another conferencevictory for the Warriors of AucillaChristian Academy as they defeatedrival John Paul II by a score of 40-0,improving their season record to threewins and one loss. It was a game thatwas characterized defensively for theWarriors by the fundamentals ofsound tackling and physical play.
This is the second time this yearthat the Warrior’s stingy defense hasrecorded a shutout, including the sea-son-opening 21-0 victory over Bell. Itwas a performance that coaches andplayers sought after throughout theweek of practice leading into this con-test.
“It was our specific goal for thisweek’s game that we not allow evenone score by John Paul.” said assistanthead coach Dave Roberts. “The de-fense played well. We achieved thatgoal through discipline and effort, andI expect more of the same throughoutthe season.”
From the opening snap, the War-riors displayed a hard-nosed determi-nation to control the line ofscrimmage, employing a gap-soundmentality that limited John Paul II inits ability to rush the football effec-tively, thereby making its offense one-dimensional. From this position ofadvantage Aucilla cashed in on repeat-ed turnovers by an increasingly de-moralized John Paul II offense thatstruggled to make forward progress.
Nothing defined this crucial battlein the trenches better than a second-quarter stand by the Warriors’ defen-sive front along John Paul’s own goalline, in which repeated attempts by the
Panthers to gain ground through pow-er running failed, resulting in a safetyby junior Jared Jackson that furthergalvanized the Warrior defense.
The rigid defensive unit was ledby junior linebacker Gus Smyrnios,who recorded 12 total tackles includ-ing a tackle for loss, as well as forcedfumble, a fumble recovery for a touch-down, and a sack.
To compliment the physical playof the defense, the Warrior offense fol-lowed suite with an impressive displayof rushing skill, gaining nearly 250yards on the ground in sustained dri-ves which effectively exhausted JohnPaul’s defensive front and allowed aswift end to the contest.
Leading the rushing attack was ju-nior Jarrod Turner, who carried theball 17 times for 112 yards and a touch-down, including several impressivelyphysical runs in traffic that gashed thePanther defense for large chunks ofyardage.
The success of the Warrior rush-ing attack took precedence over theaerial assault as Aucilla coaches visi-bly concentrated on establishing aphysical presence throughout thegame. Junior backup quarterbackHans Sorenson led the Warriors with24 yards passing and a lone touch-down.
Within the past two weeks, Aucillahas outscored its opponents 107-13, ahot streak that bodes well for the com-ing schedule, which features severaldivisional games that will determinethe Warrior’s conference fate.
In the coming week, Aucilla is slat-ed to face the Wolves of Saint Francisin another conference matchup, sched-uled to begin at 7:00 P.M. on Friday,September 30th in Gainesville, FL.

He recalls spending a lot of timefishing down on the river when he was
younger. “You can’t do that nowthough, because so many people havebought all the land along the river,” heexplained. Blue Springs was anotherspot that he and his friends spent a lotof time.
“Things have changed a lot overthe years. It is really different than itused to be,” he said.

Way Back When
On this day in 1955, movie star James Dean died atage 24 in a car crash on a California highway. Dean wasdriving his Porsche 550 Spyder, nicknamed "Little Bas-tard," headed to a car race in Salinas, California, withhis mechanic Rolf Wuetherich, when they were in-volved in a head-on collision with a car driven by a 23-year-old college student named Donald Turnaspeed.Dean was taken to Paso Robles War Memorial Hospital,where he was pronounced dead at 5:59 p.m. Wuetherich,who was thrown from the car, survived the accident andTurnaspeed escaped with minor injuries. No chargeswere ever filed against him.
James Byron Dean was born February 8, 1931, inMarion, Indiana. He studied drama at the University ofCalifornia, Los Angeles, before moving to New YorkCity, where he appeared in plays and TV shows and tookclasses at the Actors Studio with legendary actingcoach Lee Strasberg.
Dean rose to stardom in 1955 with his role as CalTrask in East of Eden. He reportedly beat out PaulNewman for the part. Dean's performance in the film,
based on the John Steinbeck novel, earned him aposthumous Academy Award nomination for Best Ac-tor. It was the first time in Oscar history that an actorwas nominated after his death. The young actor's nextfilm was "Rebel Without a Cause," also released in 1955,in which he played a rebellious teen named Jim Stark.The film, which co-starred Natalie Wood and Sal Mineo,turned Dean into the poster boy for disaffected youthand cool. Dean’s final film "Giant," released in 1956 afterhis death, was an epic tale of a Texas cattle rancher andhis family. Dean starred opposite Elizabeth Taylor andRock Hudson and was nominated posthumously for asecond Oscar for his performance as Jett Rink.
Dean's success as an actor enabled him to pursuehis passion for racing cars and motorcycles. Despite hisshort life and brief acting career, he endures as a Hol-lywood icon. He is buried at Park Cemetery in Fair-mount, Indiana, where fans continue to flock to hisgrave every year. People also pay tribute to Dean at amemorial located near the accident site in Cholame,California.

Death comes. We pray comfort forour Preacher and Diana in the death ofher mother, Mrs. Connie Alvis; and alltheir family. Marjell always said whenyou lose your mother, you lost yourbest friend. He lost his at 62; we lostmine at 88, minus 10 days.
Pray comfort, too, for Eunice(Strickland) Rowell in the death of heronly son, Mike, leaving five children;the family of Gerald Haynes in hissudden death (he was indeed a specialperson and his widow a very specialnurse – both friends!); for the family ofour friend and neighbor, Jim Newber-ry. He always cared about everybody.

If you are planning for a decade,plant trees,
If you are planning for a lifetime,educate people.”
And a Chinese proverb: “If youare planning for death, make sure youaccept Jesus in order to live with Himforever.”

Lifelong residents of Madison County, the C.J. Blanton, Jr. family
has been named the 2011 Farm Family of the Year.
C.J. Blanton, Jr. was born in Sirmans, where he grew up on his fam-
ily’s farm. His wife of 46 years, Betty Harris Blanton, was also born in
Madison. She also grew up on a farm half of a mile from where she and
C.J. live today.
C.J. and Betty have two sons, C.J. III (known as Jay) and Jason.
Jay and his wife, Christy, have one son, Noah. Jason and his wife,
Tori, have one son, Josiah, and one daughter, Skyler.
C.J. retired from the Florida Department of Transportation after a 33
½ -year career. He would come home after long days at work and go to
work on the farm.
Betty raised the children and looked after the farm until C.J. got
home everyday.
The Blantons have raised hogs and grown produce, corn and soy-
beans when the boys were growing up. They even tried their hand at
raising ostriches after Jay graduated from high school.
In 200l, the cornerstone of the Blanton’s farming business was laid.
They opened a forest nursery and today, they are the largest container-
ized pine seedling producer in the State of Florida. Each year, they pro-
duce over 10 million seedlings for sale throughout the southeastern U.S.
The Blantons have also begun row cropping once more. They pro-
duce iron and clay peas, corn, peanuts and cotton.
We Salute The Farmers of Madison County!Congratulations To The Award Winners On Their Achievements!!

Dolly has a purposebehind her mission inteaching the children. Shewants to teach them tosurvival and self-reliancein today’s tough econo-my. She wants them tolearn to grow their ownfamily gardens, under-stand their rural environ-ment and the importanceof recycling. At bothschools, 50’ x 100’ gar-
dens were established andthe students learned howto plant vegetables fromseed to harvest. Besideslearning horticulture, stu-dents also learned aboutthe migration of birds,butterflies and flowerarranging.
Currently, Dollyworks with 79 students atPinetta ElementarySchool. The studentslearn germination by

Tommy Greene is the 2011 recipient of the George Townsend Award.
Jim Stanley nominated Greene on behalf of Madison Lodge #11 F & A.M.
In Stanley’s nomination letter, he mentioned that he had known Greene since the
two of them were children growing up in Madison. He spoke about Greene being a
great supporter of agriculture in Madison County and in the State of Florida.
Stanley also mentioned Greene’s tireless work as an officer in the Masonic Lodge
and in the Shrine Club for many years.
“But his greatest service,” wrote Stanley, “has been to children needing treatment
in the Shrine hospitals for severe burns and other health issues.”
Tommy and his wife, the former Mary Ellen Selman, began publishing The
Madison County Carrier in 1964; later, they added The Madison Enterprise-Recorder.
Today, their youngest child, Emerald Greene, runs the two newspapers as well as two
more in Monticello.
