Scripture of the Day “Lord, You have been our dwelling place[a] in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever You had formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God. You turn man to destruction, And say, ‘Return, O children of men.’ For a thousand years in Your sight Are like yesterday when it is past, and like a watch in the night. You carry them away like a flood; They are like a sleep. In the morning they are like grass which grows up: In the morning it flourishes and grows up; In the evening it is cut down and withers.” — Psalm 90:1-6

Wellborn sidewalk construction to begin on Monday

From staff reports

WELLBORN — Work is expected to begin Monday on a project that will improve the ability for pedestrians to walk safely along County Road 137 in Wellborn. A 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk will be built along both sides of County Road 137 from U.S. 90 to just south of Eighth Avenue. In addition, a crosswalk will be constructed for pedestrians crossing at County Road 10A. Some of the driveways that the sidewalk will pass will have to be temporarily closed so crews can place the concrete for the sidewalk. However, residents will be con- tacted in advance of the work. The Florida Department of Transportation will oversee the project and hired R.E. Arnold Construction, Inc. of Archer to build the sidewalk at a cost of $261,800. The project is combined with sidewalk construction in Levy and Gilchrist counties and should be completed later this year. For more information on this project, please contact FDOT at 800-749-2967, ext. 7830.

ANOTHER VIEW Revise, don’t drop, drug- testing fight

he ACLU is ridiculing Gov. Rick Scott for frit- tering away nearly $400,000 in taxpayer dol- lars on legal fees to defend drug-testing laws. T We don’t think that is an excessive amount to spend fighting the scourge of drugs, but the courts have made clear this is a losing battle. It’s time the governor changed tactics. The governor and lawmakers in 2011 adopted mea- sures requiring all welfare applicants to be tested for drugs and also requiring state workers to be drug tested. The goals were simple and laudatory: to curtail drug use and ensure tax dollars are not spent on drugs. Given that private employers routinely require workers to undergo drug tests, the provisions hardly seem oppressive. But the courts have consistently disagreed. The U.S. 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, a conserva- tive-leaning court, found that a blanket drug-test Dollar Tree shoppers vs. requirement for state employees violated their right to privacy, though it allowed that the tests could be appropriate for certain jobs.

She had the ability to adjust to whatever pitching we faced. She’s probably one of the only players to have a plan.

65 YEARS LATER

Best Picture nominations of 1949 They still deserve a nod

By MARK KIRBY Special to the Reporter

any interesting films were released 65 years ago, and of the five that made the cut for the Academy Award for best picture, all would still be most welcome on the list today. As a recent viewing of the quintet that voters picked as 1949’s best showed me, there were no “What could they have thinking to nominate THAT?!?” entries, and that’s a rarity as one scours the chosen five, before that year or since. There were no Oscar hogs for 1949. The most that any one film got was four. And every one of the five best picture nominees won at least two trophies. MThat certainly doesn’t always happen. // Of course there are some films that should be added; I can think of five that could join the official nominees. But even with some flaws, in my opinion, the official five are still Oscar-worthy and certainly worth seeing. All are available on DVD (“A Letter to Three Wives” is also on Blu-Ray) and frequently shown on Turner Classic Movies. // Here are reviews of the 1949 best picture nominees; I could have written more about all of them, but I hope that what I have written will influence you to check them out. Read, and then go watch and enjoy! And let me know your opinions!
