MARRIAGE LICENSES
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows the debtor to retain certain exempt property, but the debtor’s remaining property is gathered and sold by a trustee from which creditors will receive payment. It may also be used by businesses which wish to terminate their business. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy enables debtors, through court supervision and protection, to propose and carry out a repayment plan under which creditors are paid, in full or in part, in installments over a three-year period. During that time, debtors are prohibited from starting or continuing collection efforts. The following bankruptcies declared by Calhoun County residents were recorded by U.S. Bankruptcy Court Northern District of Alabama last week:

In the footage, a well-defined funnel cloud emerges and starts coming toward the Spinkses rather than crossing their path near the end of the 7 1/2-minute video now on YouTube. It had more than 32,000 views by Sunday. “It got a little bit too close,” David Spinks said. “That’s when we got out of there.” They drove down to the Alabama 77 intersection with Alabama 144 “in a hurry,” then turned around after the tornado — later identified as an EF4 — passed. Among the first on the scene and to call in the damage, the Spinkses asked for EMS and “all the help” they could get. Ham radio operators are an important part of EMA operations, said Marissa Brimer, spokeswoman for the EMA. Operators are able to disseminate a lot of information quickly over their network, and their consistent system helps establish communications at different command posts, Brimer said. Several different repeaters set up on dif-

ferent mountains in the area give Calhoun County amateur radio enthusiasts — of which there are more than 300 — a wide variety of frequencies to broadcast on, said Randall Landers, group commander. The different frequencies act as backups for each other, increasing the reliability of the communication system. The system provided county emergency officials with firsthand accounts from RACES operators as the tornadoes cut through the northern part of the county, Landers said. All of the group’s operators are storm spotters trained by the National Weather Service, he said. He was able to coordinate where operators were from the group’s Emergency Operations Center station with a streetlevel radar system, putting operators such as David and Lisa Spinks, in position to pinpoint approaching storms such as the one they caught on camera. Spinks said he’s been approached by amateur radio and storm spotter organizations about purchasing the rights to the video for training purposes. “It’s pretty awesome,” Landers said.

tying up his children. “I didn’t really have time to think of anything else. I just put it all in God’s hands,” he said. When it was over, the family was still huddled around the trees. They were covered with limbs, leaves, dirt and other storm debris. “We celebrated when it was over,” said Tammy Hardy. Left behind in one of the trailers was 56-year-old Harry Hardy, who suffers from a chronic lung disease and is on oxygen 24-hours a day. He watched his family disappear into the storm and at one point thought they were all dead. “I was freaking out. They were all gone and I didn’t know where they were,” said Harry, who moved with his family from Louisville, Ky., to the isolated plot of land which is several hundred yards down a dirt drive from the nearest paved road. He said they spent most of what they had saved over the years to buy the land and the trailers, including three cows. Nobody has seen the cows since before the storm. While the Hardys have received supplies and help (including a portable toilet) from neighbors, friends and local churches, they have been removed from the national publicity and attention given to others after the tornadoes hit more populated areas like Tuscaloosa and Birmingham. The storm killed more than 200 people statewide, including nine in Calhoun County. The feeling of isolation was most intense Friday when they received a letter from FEMA saying they had been turned down for assistance because their home was not

In all the research she has done organizing the events, the freedom riders and the contribution they made to the Civil Rights Movement has become more real to her. “I’ve come to understand and the committee has come to understand how brave these people were and how significant what they did was to destroying segregation,” Bean said.

in a declared disaster area. The nearest country road was lined with debris. There was a tire, a chair, a bicycle, an American flag dangling from a mangled pole, but most of the debris was so mangled it was unrecognizable. The lawn of the closest church, Oak Grove Baptist, had been turned into a feeding area for victims. The pale, bearded Harry was near tears as he read the letter. “I feel like the tornadoes have hit me again and this time hit me harder. For the president to tell me we’re not a disaster area, he needs to come to my home and look around,” Hardy said. Local emergency management officials later said the Hardys and others in the area will likely receive the aid they need. Marissa Brimer, public information officer for the Calhoun County Emergency Management Agency, said the letter the Hardys received was sent a day before Calhoun County was added to the disaster declaration from President Barack Obama. She said if the Hardys refile their claim they are likely to receive assistance. She said damaged areas in Wellington and other parts of Calhoun County have received attention from local officials and from local news media. “But of course it hasn’t been like heavily populated areas like Birmingham and Tuscaloosa,” she said. Hardy almost cried again, when told that it was likely he would get help. One of the children, 12-year-old Jeremiah Hardy, said as he was on the ground grabbing the trees and his family members the wind was blowing so hard “it felt like sticking your head out of the car and dirt hitting you in the face. “I wasn’t thinking I was going to die. I was just praying,” Jeremiah said.
