Federal government sets
up DAC areas in the state
Governor Zell Miller received
notification from Federal
Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) Director James Lee Witt
today that the 31 counties, included
in the Governor’s request for a
disaster delcaration on Thursday,
have now been approved.
Following a tour of many
flooded areas by Governor Miller,
Senator Sam Nunn, Senator Paul
Coverdell, Congressman Sanford
L-Tyrosine protein
used for treatment
of many ailments
A customer came into my store
and asked for a bottle of the amino
acid L-Tyrosine. She told me that
when she runs out of it, she can
hardly go.
Until then, I had never paid any
attention to this particular amino
acid supplement, but it is worth
some attention. I did a little re
search on it and found out it could
be helpful in many areas for many
people.
L-Tyrosine is a protein that is
important in the treatment of anxi
ety, depression, allergies and
headaches. It aids in the production
of melanin (pigment of the skin and
hair) and in the functions of the
adrenal, thyroid, and pituitary
glands.
It acts as a mood elevator, sup
presses the appetite, and reduces
body fat. A lack of tyrosine trig
gers a deficiency of the hormone
norepinephrine at a specific brain
location, which results in depres
sion and mood disorders. It has
also been used for withdrawal from
drugs.
My customer had told me that she
gets depressed when she doesn't take
it.
When you have a tyrosine defi
ciency depression and mood disor
ders occur, it makes sense to sup
plement your diet with this natural
protein, instead of taking dangerous
drugs like Prozac for depression. I
tried it and I like it.

Bishop, and others on Thursday,
President Clinton signed a federal
dissaster declaration. FEMA
officials in Washington initially
included four counties in the
disaster declaration: Bibb, Clayton,
Dougherty and Sumter.
The initial declaration, amended
today, now includes 27 additional
counties that are eligible for federal
disaster assistance. In addition to
Bibb, Clayton, Dougherty and
Sumter counties, FEMA has
designated the following counties to
receive federal aid: Butts, Calhoun,
Coweta, Crawford, Dooly, Early,
Fayette, Fulton, Henry, Houston,
Jones, Lamar, Lee, Macon,
Meriwether, Monroe, Peach, Pike,
Randolph, Spalding, Talbot,
Taylor, Terrell, Troup, Twiggs,
Upson and Webster.
Twelve counties, not included in
the federal disaster declaration,
remain in the “state of emergency”
declaration issued by Governor
Miller earlier this week: Baker,
Chattahoochee, Clay, Decatur,
Harris, Marion, Miller, Muscogee,
Quitman, Schley, Seminole and
Stewart. These counties will
continue to receive assistance from
the state in the form of equipment
and personnel. Damage assessment
teams will also inspect these
counties to determine the extent of
flood damage. A determination
about federal assistance for these
counties will be made as soon as
the inspections are completed. In

An open letter to the voters of the Bth Congressional District:
The July 19 primary is just around the corner. Hopefully by now you have heard that
I am a candidate for Congress for the Bth Congressional District of Georgia. Like many of
you, I have witnessed the way that our federal government has continually separated itself from
the very people that it serves. Instead of reading about good and wise leaders in Washington
D.C., we too often hear of waste, misappropriation and a lack of "common sense" leadership.
As much as I want to believe otherwise, the truth is that our country is not well.
Sometimes our problems are so many that there seems to be no real hope. But I believe that
we are a great nation and that we can overcome our problems if we will only focus on one truth
- that our strength as a nation lies in our people and not in a bureaucracy centralized in
Washington, D.C. I stand for the proposition that we must return to the notion that
government must serve the people instead of the people serving the government. By doing this,
I believe that the government will once again become a resource for overcoming our problems
rather than a bureaucratic nightmare that more often creates problems.
When elected to Congress, I will carry the above beliefs with me to Washington and
follow them in serving as your representative to accomplish the following:
(1) I will sponsor and/or vote for legislation that addresses the roots of crime. I also
believe that it is time we start paying as much attention to the rights of victims as we do the
rights of criminals, and that it is time we require, by federal law, the criminals to pay restitution
to their victims as a part of their sentences.
(2) In the area of your tax money , I believe that our federal government is bloated and
inefficient. We don't need new taxes, we need new ideas toward efficiency in our spending and
that's something we will never get from the same old political crowd. To that end, it is my
intention to introduce legislation called the OMB (Office of Management and Budget) Mandates
in Spending Bill. This legislation will directly impact the waste and inefficiency in government
spending simply by requiring concrete mandates on how your money is to be spent from the
departments and agencies wanting your money before it is allocated by Congress.
(3) Finally, as the representative from the Bth Congressional District of Georgia, I will
fight to keep our military bases alive, not with backroom deals, but with up-front efficiency.
The Base Closing Commission has largely spared Georgia's bases so far because they are
among the best, most advanced and most essential in the country. As long as that remains true,
it is in the best interest of our country to keep those bases open while others are closed. That's
not pork barrel; that's government efficiency and I want to go to Washington to help Sam
Nunn with that work.
I was brought up to believe that voting is more than a right or privilege; voting is a
responsibility. As a citizen, I urge you to be responsible and vote on July 19. As a candidate, I
would earnestly appreciate your vote for Craig Webster for the Bth U.S. Congressional District
of Georgia.
