Let us remember in the month of May, 2010 that we celebrate the birth month of our picturesque Amelia Island. The first recorded visitor to Amelia Island was the great French Admiral and explorer, Jean Ribault, in 1562.

From this date in 1562 to July 10, 1821 there was one bloody-battle and war after war for hundreds of years over who and/or what nation would occupy this valuable Amelia Island.

Health fair in Hilliard is a big hitBy Lauren Jones

Children jumped in a bounce house, rode on real live ponies and stood on a machine moving a ball through a maze on a screen that resembled a Pac-Man game. It was a hot but breezy day as different
local Nassau County businesses set up booths under a large tent.The Lifecare Center of Hilliard held its annual health
fair Saturday with a “Preserving Classics” theme along with the children’s section. There were 26 local businesses partici-pating in the event offering their services and information to the 250 attendees.
“This is all about letting the community know what re-sources are out there for them and to promote health,” Iris Nanctz of the Lifecare Center said.
Each year the Lifecare Center calls around to different dentists, doctor’s offices and other health related fields ask-ing for their participation in the event which happens at the Lifecare Center on U.S. 1 in Hilliard.
The Lifecare Center of Hilliard is a nursing care facility with locations all over the country that offers short and long term care with inpatient and outpatient therapy services.
A staff member of the Lifecare was on site showing off their new Biosway machine. It is designed to measure bal-ance and train people to get their balance back who might have suffered a fall in their older age. It has a foot board similar to a Wii fit board that you measure your balance

WHAT IS YOUR OPInIOn?what are your thoughts on the oil spill?
“With the knowledge we have today you’d think they’d have been better prepared. I guarantee we will still be seeing the affects of this 10 years from now.”
Billy CanterburyCallahan
“It all could have been prevented. Now they’re just going to raise the price of gas and we’re going to have to pay for their mistakes..”
Jason DavisYulee
“I don’t know a lot about oil drilling, but it seems like it could have been prevented. I just feel bad for the people who lost their livelihoods and the animals.”
Shandelle FlemingFernandina Beach
“It’s going to be a big puzzle for the companies to figure out what went wrong. I hope they find a solution quickly. Only God knows what the long term effects will be.”
Judith HegglundHilliard
“I think more could have been done after the fact. It took them two weeks to get the dome, they should have had one already.”
Donald LeeVisiting Fernandina from S. Carolina
“I think they should be more careful. It wasted a lot of oil that we could have used.”
Leslie PorterCallahan
“It could have been prevented, but the people with the power and money don’t care. Now the small people are the ones who are going to have to suffer. It’s a shame.”
Autumn SimmonsYulee
“My opinion of the oil companies hasn’t changes becuase we’ve got to have them. But, it is going to be hard if they don’t hurry up and clean it up.”

Dear Editor,I am a long-time member of Community First Credit Union of Florida, and I am writing to express concern about the recent decision
Community First has made to close the Callahan and Fernandina branch. I am NOT in favor of this decision and think it is a very poor choice for a financial institution that flaunts the slogan, “Invested In You.”
On the letter dated April 28, 2010, which informed members of the closing it reads: “We want to assure you that we continue to be com-mitted to the Nassau County area.” Closing a branch and forcing members to go to another branch further away is not a commitment to ANY resident in Callahan, Hilliard, Bryceville, Fernandina or surrounding areas.
The decision to close the Callahan branch will most likely force many members to bank elsewhere unless they work near another branch. In the next few months I imagine many members will consider moving their accounts to another financial institution in the Callahan area. If an ATM for Community First does not remain in Callahan then this would definitely solidify my decision to move my accounts.
I do know that Vystar Credit Union still owns land in Callahan and I would highly recommend that construction of their building begin soon. Even if the construction of a Vystar office in Callahan does not occur in the next few years, at least an ATM for Vystar presently exists in Callahan. Will Community First keep an ATM in Callahan or Fernandina? Will you move your funds to another institution? I encourage all current Community First members in the area to take a minute to express your opinion to Community First by sending a letter to: John Hirabayashi, CEO and President, P.O. Box 2600, Jacksonville, FL 32232.
Thank you,
Brian SimmonsCallahan resident

I have been a big fan of the hit television show “24” for quite some time. It has been on now for nine years and now I am won-dering what I am going to do with myself on Monday nights once Jack Bauer finally retires. One thing that has always fascinated me about 24 is the role of ethics in the show. Jack always finds himself caught on the horns of an ethical dilemma and becomes a pragmatist when he feels it is nec-essary. If you have been watching this season, you know that Jack has lost his moral compass in the last few hours like never before. He wants revenge! This is not like Jack. When he has gone against civil authorities in the past, he always had ethical reasons for doing what he did, even if it meant taking the president hostage! But now he is being driven by anger and grief in a constantly changing situation. Jack is not alone in his ethical di-lemmas. Even the president has shifted from principles to pragmatism and the hole she is digging keeps getting deeper! I am not saying I agree with Jack Bauer’s ethics even most of the time. He always believes what he is doing is the right thing in the midst of a constantly evolving situation, but is he doing right? How can we know?
Much like our own world, our ethical standards are always being challenged by changes in the world. I believe that we get
into trouble when we fail to recognize that in a changing world we need fixed points of ref-erence. We need a compass that always points to true north. Let’s say we are trying to make the best education decision for our kids: Do
I home school my kids or send them to public school? I believe the parent must decide this but even this decision needs to be governed by an objective ethi-cal principle. I learn from God’s Word that education is the par-ent’s responsibility, not the gov-ernment’s. So even those areas where we do not have definite answers we have fixed points of reference that guide us in mak-ing decisions.
But this is not what our cul-ture says today. It says the in-
dividual decides what is ultimately right and wrong for them. But it doesn’t take long for the advocates of this form of ethics to cry: “You can’t do that! That’s wrong!” Jack Bau-er is a great example of this. He has simply decided for himself what is right yet who believes revenge is a good thing? Some may say: “We have laws and everyone must follow them.” True, but doesn’t the existence of such laws prove we cannot live as laws unto our-selves? We cannot have it both ways.
We live in a constantly changing culture. Are you being carried along with the currents of the culture or are you anchored into the
immovable bedrock below? Does your com-pass always point to true north or is your compass like Captain Jack Sparrow’s where north is determined by what Jack wants? God’s Word has been the foundation of eth-ics for Christians for centuries and as long as they have been faithful to follow it (no, they have not always been faithful) they have done well. But let me also point out that biblical ethics are more than just determining right from wrong. Even if you think you are a pret-ty good person who keeps to a solid biblical ethic, if it does not lead to the cross, you have missed something. Biblical ethics and moral-ity are not synonymous. Rightly understood and applied, biblical ethics will always lead us to see our need of the Cross and Christ’s forgiveness for we will come to realize we cannot keep our own principles perfectly be-cause we didn’t make them up. That is one way we can tell the difference: if we can keep them, then we made them. The Apostle Paul once wrote that God’s grace revealed in Jesus Christ teaches us to say no to ungodliness and worldly passions and to live lives that are full of good works. Unless our ethics lead to the cross of Christ, they are man-made. If they are man-made, then we have to acknowledge the day may come where the most unthinkable act today may be widely accepted tomorrow. If our ethics are not anchored in the cross of Christ, then we are adrift in the currents of a constantly changing world. May we all find solid footing in Jesus!

For over 50 years, Crawford Jewelers has been in business with three generations of the Crawford Family running it. They have a to-tal of eight family members work-ing for the business. Since 1957 they have been in business and started out in Waycross, GA. The now have two locations there and one in Fernandina Beach on Sadler Road.
Tim Crawford’s father started the business as a watch repairman. His older brother is a master watch maker. Tim Crawford started out in the business after he graduated high school. He had a baseball scholarship and soon decided he didn’t want to pursue that. He had the opportunity to attend a techni-cal school in California to become a gemologist. He followed his fa-ther’s footsteps and can now do re-pairs, jewelry making and settings. Crawford said he also has learned a great deal actually working in the business as well.
Crawford says the business has changed since they first started out. Their store used to sell more than just jewelry. They sold pots and pans, cologne and other non-related items.
Now they specialize in bridal but also offer an array of prod-ucts for everyone. Having a laid back atmosphere is important to the Crawfords. Crawford says he
dresses in casual clothes because he doesn’t want to make his customers feel intimidated as they would if he were wearing a suit.
“I’m just a simpleton,” Crawford laughed.
They strive to keep their custom-ers comfortable and keep the serv-ice simple.
“We don’t try to throw all the bells and whistles at you. We don’t use words you can’t understand.” Crawford said.
They stand behind everything they sell and Crawford says a $1 sale is just as important to them as a $10,000 sale.
He says they took into considera-tion the location when they wanted to move down to Florida. He want-ed tourists but also a regular cus-tomer base of people who live on the island. He has customers who followed them here from Georgia and even ones from St. Augustine.
He says there have been unique situations where he has had to tell a fiance-to-be that her boyfriend had not been in here looking for rings in order to not ruin the surprise.
“Some of them have gotten mad at me,” Crawford said. “You can’t always please everybody but we try.”
His father passed away in 2000. His mothers is 75 years old and still works for the business and travels when she can.
Crawford Jewelers is located at 1472 Sadler Road.

In life, you can’t avoid all risks — and you shouldn’t try, because endeavors that carry risk also bring the prospect of reward. And it’s certainly the same in the investment world. So instead of trying to invest risk-free, which is impossible, learn to recognize the different types of investment risk while becoming famil-iar with your own risk tolerance.
To start with, let’s quickly look at some of the most common forms of investment risk:
• Risk of losing principal — This is the type of risk most commonly associated with invest-ing. You could lose some, or even all, of your principal if you sell an investment, such as a
stock, whose value has dropped lower than the purchase price. You can’t eliminate the risk of losing principal, but you may be able to reduce it by buying quality stocks and holding them long enough to overcome short-term market drops.
• Inflation risk — With an investment that pays a fixed rate of return, such as a certificate of deposit (CD), you run the risk of not keeping up with inflation, which means you could lose purchasing power over time. Consequently, it’s a good idea not to “overload” on these types of investments.
• Interest-rate risk — When you own a bond, your investment is
Salsa is one of the most diverse dishes you can make. Everyone has their own version and secrets for their favorite one. There’s tomatillo salsa, hot red pepper, pico de gallo and more.
I adapted this from a recipe I found on allrecipes.com. I like it because it has a little bit of everything. I omitted the olive oil, added a can of black beans, used a couple less tomatoes (the recipe serves 12 and calls for eight diced tomatoes. I used six) and added one more jalapeno pepper for more kick.
I like chopping foods and this is a fun recipe to do that. Although, it did take longer than I bargained for. Once you chop each ingredi-ent, throw it in the bowl, mix it and let it sit in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving. It’s simple but full of flavor. You can eat it on your preferred kind of chips or put it on a taco. Some of the reviews on the website recommended you eat it with a fork as a salad!
I bought all the vegetables from the Beaver Street Farmer’s Market in Jacksonville and it was super cheap; $10 total for all those ingre-dients. Enjoy!

Today, as I gaze around me at all our modern conven-iences, I take a moment and think back to a simpler time. The glare of the computer screen fades and the roar of the cars outside become distant as I become lost in thought. In my mind I see the old frontier of the 1850’s. This is where the south truly began. I smile as a prairie schooner rumbles past. These old fashioned wagons usually were ten feet long and four feet wide. They sometimes came with a false bot-tom so extra items could be stored. These brave pioneers really needed it too with all they had to carry out west. Did you know for a trip across three states a family would take around 600 pounds of flour? That, my friends is a lot of campfire biscuits! I say “campfire” because the women had no stoves to take with them back then. Every meal was pre-pared over a small fire. Also ladies, these courageous pioneer women had no washer and dryer either! They traveled day after day for months stopping at rivers or creek beds to wash all the laundry with a washtub, washboard, and lye soap. Usually this burdensome task took an entire day and a troop of women to get it done. Whew! That kinda makes me thankful for detergent that I don’t have to make, or a ma-chine that doesn’t actually need me to get the clothes clean. I stifle a laugh thinking how far we have come in modern advances yet our future was made by men and women who
worked hard from sunrise to well into the night. The days of sitting on the front porch swing sipping sweet tea would come eventually but only made possible by our fearless an-cestors who forged the way. I must reiterate “fearless” out of great respect for what these pioneers had to endure to make our country what it is today. The illnesses, whether water-born or even waste that wasn’t properly disposed of, was only one of the major concerns back in the 1860s. Birthing on a journey west was also very frequent and quite painful. Mothers, just hours after delivering the child were required to be up and ready to get back on the road. But though the journey was extremely difficult there were always moments of laughter and joy. Men sitting around the campfire swap-ping stories that became our Southern Legends, or women huddled in a circle, a quilt on their knees talking in hushed tones over the latest gossip. Yes, ladies, even back then women found things to gossip about and laugh over in their daily lives. And of course the music! The playful strains of a fiddle float over the night air. The children entertain them-selves by starting a spelling bee to pass the time. Speaking of time, I instantly snap back to the present and sigh, the computer is still glaring at me and my coffee, made with my electric coffeepot, is growing cold. I laugh and think, “Thank God for the microwave! Things may have became a lot easier for us nowadays, but that sweet, Southern charm hasn’t changed. So come out to the front porch with me, sip a little sweet tea and let’s reminisce, shall we?
Reminiscing our fearless ancestors

6 The Nassau News | May 13, 2010
If anyone could give a fishing report this week, I would probably be the man for the job. I spent hours on top of hours in the water fish-ing this past week getting ready to fish the 2010 Columbia Sports Kayak Classic. Being a slam tournament I had to locate all three fish; the red fish, trout and flounder to be specific.
The red fish are the easiest of the three right now. If you are fishing in the early morning or late afternoon try top water plugs. I prefer the mul-let pattern Skitter Walk. The first thing I do when I purchase one is take off the back treble hook. I then replace it with a number four Sure Set wide gap treble hook. It will increase the number of fish that you hook up on. Look for bait being moved around structure and grass lines and try to anticipate the movement of the red fish to pinpoint your cast.
After the top water bite slows down, this has been around eight o’clock, try getting a grub or live bait under the water to entice them to bite. Mud minnows, live shrimp and crabs under a float have been producing great results. Be patient and work deeper holes by docks and
you will be taking a red home for dinner.The trout have been very finicky. The big-
ger trout have seemed to disappear and the smaller trout have taken their place. Do not be surprised if you half to catch ten for every one keeper that you get. Try trolling mud minnows on jig heads or floating live shrimp for success.
Look for 12- to 15-foot holes next to any structure. Also, you will catch trout with the same method I sug-gested for red fish in the morning and late afternoon.
With the flounder, slow everything down. Most of the reports being turned in are of twelve to fifteen inch flatties. There have been a few nice ones caught with a couple of twenty to twenty five-inchers reported. An-chor up on a small creek mouth or sharp drop offs on mud flats on the outgoing tide. Fan cast the area un-til you have covered the entire area.
On the incoming the fish are heading back into the creeks so try slow trolling with the tide flow. Mud minnows, live shrimp and mullet will be your best bet. If you are using artificial use a D.O.A. cal jig head rigged with a Berkley Gulp
swimming mullet and you are sure to see some flounder action.
Now let me get back to the Classic. If you have ever participated in a fishing tournament, you know that they are usually carbon copies of one another. A bunch of, sorry to steal the phrase Bob, “steely eyed dudes” walking around at the captains meeting wondering who has the best fishing hole or boat set up. Tournaments can be all business and take a lot of the fun out of fishing. The kayak tournament breaks the mold.
I had a blast this year. Great food, camarade-rie and pleasantries were had by all. The venue was perfect and the company was even better. There were people from all over the country and even a contestant from Britain. There were four hundred and thirty participants in all. No won-der it has been tagged the worlds largest kayak tournament.
Over $42,000 was raised for local charities. All this money will go to help local children in
dire need of medical attention and general as-sistance. Thanks again to Mike Kogan for set-ting this tournament up every year. It gets bet-ter every year thanks to the efforts of Mike and others. If you did not have a chance to fish it this year hopefully by the time the next one rolls around I will have convinced you to. All results of this years tournament can be found at www.jaxkayakfishing.com.
Until next time, be safe out there and good luck.
*Editor’s note: Ryan happened to win first place in the tournament in the Hobie Kayaks Slam category. He didn’t want to brag, so we will do that for him. This is the world’s largest kayak fishing event for the fifth year in a row. Ryan caught a 30-inch red, 17.1-inch trout and a 13-inch flounder with a winning total of 60.1inches. He competed with 429 other kayakers and took home a fully-rigged Hobie Mirage Pro Angler fishing kayak. Congratula-tions Ryan!

Our economy has been on a decline for the past year or so. Many of our clients have lost their jobs, been laid off or had their hours cut back. This affects all businesses, as well as our own. To save money, some of our clients have had to cut down on care for their pets, or to go to low cost clinics run by nonprofit (non-tax paying) organizations. To do so, they pay more for gas and spend a great deal of time travelling back and forth to these distant clinics. In order to help our clients, their pets and ourselves, we are going head-to-head against these nonprofits. We will do our best to match any of their prices for surgery, services and products. Call us with your prices from these clinics and we will do our best to match them. Keep it local! Save gas! Save time! Thanks. Walter Swanson, D.V.M.

somewhat at the mercy of changing market interest rates. For example, if you buy a bond that pays four percent interest, and market rates rise so that newly issued bonds pay five percent, the relative value of your bond will go down; no one will pay you face value of your bond when they can get new ones that pay higher rates. Of course, if you hold your bonds until matu-rity, which is often a good idea, you can avoid being victimized by inter-est-rate risk.
• Concentration risk — This type of risk occurs when you have too much of your money concentrated in one area, such as in a particular stock or in one industry. If a down-turn strikes that stock or industry, your portfolio could take a big hit. To combat this type of risk, you need to diversify your holdings among stocks, bonds, government securities and other investments. While diver-sification, by itself, cannot guarantee a profit or protect against a loss, it can help reduce the effect of volatil-ity. In addition to understand-ing the above types of risk, you also need to be familiar with your own risk tolerance and how it affects your investment strategy. If you are con-stantly worried about “the market,” you’ve probably got too many invest-ments that are at risk of losing prin-cipal. At the other end of the spec-trum, if you’re always concerned that your portfolio won’t grow enough to generate the income you’ll eventually need for retirement, you may be in-vesting too conservatively — and, as a result, you’re inviting inflation risk.
Ultimately, you need to match your own risk tolerance with a strat-egy that allows you to achieve your goals. This will require self-awareness, patience, discipline — and, at times, a willingness to move outside your own “comfort zone.” By learning to balance and manage risk, you can ul-timately put yourself in a position to pursue your investment strategy.

Investing Cont. from page 5 Let’s venture into the exciting
world of eyebrow shaping. Yes, men, especially you. It is not “feminine” to demonstrate some concern for your personal appearance! It’s quick, al-most painless and dramati-cally shapes your face. First impressions will always go a long way.
Eyebrows are the most changeable feature of your face. Shaping your brows can make your eyes seem larger, smaller, closer set or further apart. Staying with your natural eyebrow shape usually looks best. In general a thicker brow is considered softer and more youthful. A thin brow may make you look older.
Waxing is an inexpensive service
typically offered by salons. Wax-ing is a great way to create an ini-tial “shape” to the brows. Tweezing does the fine tuning. You and the technician have a consultation and
reach a conclusion on which shape suits you best. The area is cleaned and warm, liquid wax is applied. A strip of gauze is then placed on top of the wax. The technician then quickly removes the gauze pulling the unwanted hair with it. Those of you who saw the movie “40-Year-Old Virgin” know what I’m talking about!
There is normally some tweezing after the wax to achieve the finished look. You would be amazed
at how much transformation hap-pens with just a little hair removal. It adds a softness to women and helps you appreciate their facial strengths. Men look more professional. Those they meet won’t recognize waxed eyebrows. They will recognize and be distracted by overly hairy, un-kempt brows.
Tip for women: You may add full-
ness to your brows with an eyebrow pencil. Professionally I prefer to fill her brows with an eye shadow. It is a softer more natural look. Once the brow is waxed it typically takes one to three months for the hair to re-turn.
And remember your finest feature will always be a smile.
