In a criminal case, they call it “reasonable doubt” and you have to get beyond it. In civil matters, it’s called “a preponderance of the evidence” and you have to have a whole mess of it. Neither is the same as 100 percent, iron-clad, take-it-to-the-bank certainly, but it makes you wonder. It’s pretty safe to…
They had all just been small-town boys growing up in Carrabelle, born either just before or not long after World War II, and when it came time to answer their nation’s call, fresh out of high school, they did so. Their fight was a far less popular war than the one of their fathers, and…

The action in the center of St. George Island was about as laid back as it comes over the course of four decades since the annual St. George Island Charity Chili Cook-off first started. Gone were the raucous and ribald Ms. Chili Pepper and Mr. Hot Sauce competitions, or the hubbub of a live auction…

State Rep. Jason Shoaf wants to pass legislation that will give Floridians the right to kill a bear if they feel either themselves or their property are being threatened.
