'Christmas Star' to appear on Monday By CAROL BROOKS FreeLANCe WrIter cab1hp@gmail.com
The world will have a chance to witness something on Dec. 21 that has not happened since the Middle Ages. Some are calling this the “Christmas Star,” reminiscent of the star the wise men followed to visit the baby Jesus. This rare occurrence happens when the orbits of two planets, Jupiter and Saturn, align so closely it appears one planet is on top of the other. Some astronomers
believe that the “star of Bethlehem” in the Nativity story was an earlier alignment, technically a conjuction, of Jupiter and Saturn, along with Mars. “Alignments between these two planets are rather rare, occurring once every 20 years or so, but this conjunction is exceptionally rare because of how close the planets will appear to be to one another,” Patrick Hartigan, an astronomer at Rice University, told Forbes magazine. This year’s version probably will not be the star-
shaped glow typically portrayed as the Star of Bethlehem. Rather, it will be a bright dot in the sky, larger than other stars or planets. The account of the wise men following a star is only recorded in Matthew 2:1a3, 9-11: “… wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, ‘Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him. … After hearing what the king had to say they set out;

The celebration of Christmas continues By NORMA B. dENNIS FreeLANCe WrIter ndworddesign@gmail.com Riding through Jamestown after dark on Dec. 12 was enough to brighten anyone’s outlook. The streets were lined with luminaries all aglow with the warmth of the holiday. A special Christmas on Main committee, along with the Jamestown Business Association and Jamestown Rotary Club planned the event to help keep the spirit of Christmas alive in the community. Businesses were open to the public and Mendenhall Homeplace on West Main featured tours of the house, all following current health guidelines. The highlight for the young and young-at-heart, however, was most likely a drive-thru visit with Santa who was stationed at the front of Jamestown Town Hall. Although no one could

Brooks wins Golf Professional of the Year By CAROL BROOKS freelance writer cab1hp@gmail.com
Sedgefield Country Club has a major PGA honor to boast about – Rocky Brooks, director of golf, was recently named 2020 Golf Professional of the Year by the Carolinas PGA, the highest honor paid to a PGA professional. The award honors excellent overall performance as a golf professional, level of service to the Section, leadership ability, image, the ability to inspire fellow professionals, and promotion of the game of golf. Brooks was nominated by his peers and was surprised at his win, even though he had been nominated several times in the past. “I’m not motivated by plaques on my walls,” Brooks said. “The recognition by your peers is the most rewarding thing by far. You get a little emotional.” Similar to several PGA tournaments, like the Masters, the Carolinas PGA gave him a nice sport coat and a ring – and a plaque for his wall.

Rocky Brooks When he graduated from Barton College (formerly Atlantic Christian), Brooks figured he would enlist in the Air Force, following in his father’s footsteps. But a friend from his golf team asked him to work with him at a golf course for the summer. “Nearly 36 years later, here I am,” Brooks said. Brooks has been a professional since 1986 but says his current duties don’t give him much of a chance to
get out on the course to play and his game has suffered for it. But whether he’s playing golf or directing all the aspects of the sport, “You get in the business because you love playing the game,” he said. He has been at Sedgefield for nearly 20 years, “molding Sedgefield into what it is today,” according to the Carolinas PGA announcement. In addition to his duties there, he has been a member of the CPGA Section Board for 10 of the last 14 years and a member of the PGA for nearly 30 years. While those duties keep him busy, he is still active in community outreach programs such as The First Tee of the Triad and, of course, working with the PGA on the Wyndham Championship. Brooks is not the only golf professional in his family. His brother Bob is the director of golf at Gillespie Park in Greensboro. Due to the coronavirus, the annual Carolinas PGA award ceremony was not held, but the group plans to honor all award winners throughout 2021 in many ways.

there before them was the star they had seen rising, and it went ahead of them until it stopped above the place where the child lay. They were overjoyed at the sight of it and, entering the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother and bowed low in homage to him.” The “wise men,” who came several months after the birth, have been identified as magi, or astronomers, so they would be interested not only in the birth of Jesus but in the star. Matthew tells us they saw the star in the East. The song “We Three Kings” relates that the Magi also came from the East, or the Orient: “We three kings of Orient are Bearing gifts we traverse afar. Field and fountain, moor and mountain, Following yonder star. O star of wonder, star of night, Star of royal beauty bright, Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light.” Some scientific explanations say the Magi actually saw a nova or supernova explosion, a comet or a stationary point of Jupiter that happens every year, but this time stopping over Jesus. Although the planets appear to be on top of each other, they are actually millions of miles apart. Dec. 21 is the Winter Solstice and on that date the “Christmas Star” may be seen with an unobstructed view low on the western horizon about 45-60 minutes after sunset through binoculars or a small telescope. That is when the planets will be closest together but astronomers say the phenomenon will be visible to some degree all week in the southwest. Try to get a glimpse this year of this phenomenon. It won’t happen again until 2080.
Allan Gurganus takes us back to Falls What is going on in Falls, North Carolina? It is an insiders’ question, but don’t be put off. I am going to explain and bring you into the fold. Falls is a fictional small town near Rocky Mount where famed North Carolina author Allan Gurganus grew up. Although Gurganus has built a legacy of great writing, art, and advocacy, he is still best known for his debut novel, “Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All.”
Max Kendall Lumber & Tin
Now Making Metal Roofing 1011 Freeway Dr. Reidsville, NC
That book, set in Falls, came out in 1989 and rushed to the top of the New York Times bestseller list where it stayed there for months. Gurganus has taken his readers back to Falls on a regular basis. The town is the setting for several stories in his latest book, “The Uncollected Stories of Allan Gurganus,” which comes out next month. One story in the new book, “The Deluxe $19.95 Walking Tour of Historic Falls (NC),” takes a hard look at the town from a tour guide’s perspective. Here is part of her pitch to her customers. “Moving along nicely. No stragglers, please. Incorporated in 1824, almost immediately made the county seat, Falls still boasts five thousand local souls. We’re down from our peak seven-thousand during the commercial boom of ’98, 18--98. See that arched bridge? Some

Gurganus wrote this story for NPR’s All Things Considered in 2004 and read it on the program. He has rewritten it regularly. Last year it made its way into print in a limited edition that sold out quickly. The story’s inclusion makes certain the new book will be a family treasure. Perhaps the book’s most timely story is “The Wish for a Good Young Country Doctor,” which was published first in The New Yorker in April. Set in a rural village in the Midwest during a cholera epidemic in 1850, a young doctor does his best to save its citizens. But when many die, the doctor is blamed. How did Gurganus manage to time his story to coincide with the current pandemic? Gurganus says he finished the story early this year, “on the day that coronavirus appeared for the first time
in The New York Times. And the context was completely changed. I sent it to my agent who sent it to The New Yorker, which bought it in a day and it appeared two weeks later.” These stories and six more will remind us of the talented North Carolinian’s ability to laugh painfully at ourselves and our neighbors, holding us in waiting for Gurganus’s promised, but long delayed, opus, “An Erotic History of a Southern Baptist Church.” Note: You can listen to 2004 reading of “A fool for Christmas” on NPR at https://www.npr.org/ templates/story/story. php?storyId=4244370

CONtINUeD FrOM FrONt In January of 2020, Cannon contacted Duke and Wake Forest hospitals and started the process of becoming a living kidney donor. The family member she had talked to shared a post from social media telling of a young girl who needed a kidney. Cannon contacted the University of Virginia Hospital, which was coordinating her transplant, about being a donor. “I felt whom better to help than a young child,” Cannon said. “In February I began testing to see if I was a match. Much of the testing could be done in Hickory where I currently live. I want to give a shout out to all the doctors and nurses there who helped
with the tests I had.” But testing involves more than one’s health and general match indicators. It also accesses one’s ability to live a life for the short and long term with one kidney. A team from the University of Virginia Hospital – consisting of a doctor, psychologist, social worker and donor coordinator – walked Cannon through each step of the process. Cannon acknowledged it was long and challenging. “I believe all people have gifts inside them,” Cannon said. For some it may be time, hard work or money. For me, it was an organ. “When I learned I was not a match for the child, I went home to wait. I just wanted to put out my kidney in the
universe to make a difference. I was what is called a non-directed donor. At the University of Virginia Hospital there are only about two donors a year like me.” In July, Cannon received a call from her coordinator asking if she could have surgery on Aug. 6. The hospital had found a match. Cannon has had other surgeries so was not afraid to have this one. Her biggest fear was telling her mother about her decision to donate a kidney. She put that off until she learned she was actually going to be a donor. “I did not want Mom to worry in case I could not be a donor candidate,” she said. “My husband recommended I wait so by the time I got to the point of having sur-
gery I would have answers to all her questions. One of Mom’s biggest worries was having surgery in the middle of a pandemic, but she remembered I had said years ago I was willing to donate a kidney. “I never had any doubts about what I was doing. My husband said I was very determined.” During pre-op discussions, Cannon received a notebook detailing what to expect before, during and after surgery. She also learned the recipient was about her age and was on dialysis three times a week for four hours each. On the morning of surgery, Cannon scrutinized every patient she saw at the hospital, trying to figure out
Now Here's A Tip * B.B. in Massachusetts writes: “I have a rubber disc (used for taking covers off jars) that I keep in my shower. When showering, I put the disc over the drain so the water can accumulate, then I soak my feet at the same time.” * To save yourself some time and aggravation, make a safety set of keys that match your current set exactly. You will never have to go looking for your keys when you are in a hurry, and you won’t have to determine if the key you need is on the ring. It is! * “Re: your recent tip about storing heirloom quilts in a cedar chest: No, no, a thousand times no! Nothing is worse for quilts — heirloom or otherwise — than storing them in cedar chests. Acids will not only stain them but break down the fabric over time.” — B.R. in Washington. Thanks B.R. Although my grandmother did store quilts and other fabric items in her cedar chest, according to sources at the National Quilters Circle, the best place for an heirloom quilt may be on a bed. You can stack them, but rotate so that no quilt gets too much sun. — JoAnn * “For squeaky door hinges, forget about graphite, WD-40 or any of those other messy lubricants that may last for only a few months. Pull the hinge pins, wipe them clean with a dry rag, and then apply a thin coating of Vaseline with your finger. Properly done, your hinges should remain free of squeaks for at least a year.” — F.B. in Colorado * “If you live in a cold area where you might experience icy sidewalks and you have a dog or cat, don’t forget to protect your pet’s feet from the salt and/or chemicals that are frequently used to melt ice. Be sure to wipe down your pet’s feet after a walk outside.” — F.F. in Alaska Send your tips to Now Here’s a Tip, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803. ©2020 King Features Synd., Inc.

ney and I feel grateful, too, that I was able to improve her life.” Cannon has already resumed donating blood, another gift she feels strongly about giving. But it is the gift of a kidney of which she is most proud. “I feel in my core it is an honor to be healthy enough to be able to donate a kidney,” Cannon said. “Although this was the right thing for me, I understand it is not for everyone. I would encourage others to look within themselves to see what they could do to make someone’s life better.”

who was getting her kidney. She was told a meeting could be coordinated in three months if both agreed. “Meetings are very emotional things,” Cannon admitted. “The hospital waits before arranging them to make sure the organ will be accepted.” Cannon’s meeting was held virtually in November. She learned the recipient was a single mother of four who had been told it would take 3-5 years to find a donor. Because of Cannon’s generous gift, she found out within a month she would get a kidney. “We have contacted each other often by email,” Cannon said. “I think our relationship will continue.

The bar at Blue Rock will have 24 beer taps. Architectural drawings took two months longer than anticipated. Construction also was slowed during with the coronavirus but has picked up in recent weeks. Blue Rock Pizza supports local schools and will proudly display a Ragsdale High School football jersey in the restaurant. Riggan plans to have local events to support the school’s booster club. The restaurant will be
open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner. With the current Covid restrictions, the restaurant will close at 10 p.m. and stop selling alcohol at 9. This is Riggan’s Blue Restaurant Group’s first venture outside of High Point except for one in Wilmington. His first, Blue Water Grille, opened around 2002, followed by Blue Zucchini, Blue Bourbon Jack’s, Blue Rock Pizza, Lulu & Blue and Magnolia Blue. Riggan
has since sold Blue Zucchini and BBJ’s. As for the “blue” theme, Riggan said it tied in with seafood at Blue Water Grille and he decided to continue for the other restaurants. Covid has affected all of the restaurants and Riggan noted that several of them had to close for a while. Blue Rock in High Point, however, had just begun delivery so it was able to stay open.

think this is going to be a good area.” Riggan and his crew gutted the McPherson’s space, turning it into a familyoriented restaurant, similar to the one in High Point with the same name, offering craft-style pizza and craft beer, and decorated in a rock-and-roll theme. He has installed 24 beer taps and will also offer wine. “It’s going to be a fun, upbeat environment,” Riggan said, adding that a magician will be on-site visiting diners one night a week. “We’re excited.” While the menu will be similar to that in High Point, the Adams Farm location will also feature several pasta options. There is a private dining room with TV and several other semi-private seating areas for a total of 125 seats. There is also an outside patio that can seat 32. With the Covid restrictions, that maximum number is currently lower. There is a modern jukebox that can be synced to your personal mobile phone.

In fact, here’s a little birthday fun: I’m going to list some of my favorite fun movies, and let’s see if you can guess my age.

Strange But True By LUCIE WINBORNE * Doc Martens come in all different colors and sizes now, but the first pair was created using old tires. * There actually aren’t “57 varieties” of Heinz ketchup, and never were. Company founder H.J. Heinz thought his product should have a number, and he just happened to like 57. * March 3 is known as “What if Cats and Dogs Had Opposable Thumbs Day.” * The number of permutations within a deck of cards is mind-bogglingly large: an 8 with 67 zeroes after it. That means there are more card combinations than stars in the Milky Way, which amount to as many as 400 billion! * Cataract surgery was possible as early as the 6th century B.C. * Barbie’s physical appearance was inspired by a German doll named Bild Lilli, created in 1952 and based on a highend call girl named Lilli who was featured in the comic strip “Bild-Zeitung.” She was sold as an adult novelty in bars and tobacco shops — definitely not as a children’s toy.
Barbie inventor Ruth Handler saw the doll while vacationing in Europe and brought it home. * Sunsets on Mars are blue. * The Gate Tower Building in Osaka, Japan, has a highway that passes through the building, between the fifth and seventh floors. * A Paris morgue needed help identifying bodies in the 1860s, so decided to open its doors to the public. They probably underestimated people’s morbid curiosity, though, as soon 40,000 people a day were coming to look at corpses. * Mob boss Vincent Gigante would wander around New York in his bathrobe to convince the police he was insane, and thus avoid capture.

Harry Potter and the ... — I love the entire Harry Potter series of films, top to bottom. In case you’re wondering, my favorite is “Prisoner of Azkaban,” with the introduction of both Gary Oldman as Sirius Black, and David Thewlis as Professor Lupin, two of Harry’s dad’s besties. Steel Magnolias — This movie never ages nor tarnishes. A group of Southern women prepare for the wedding of Shelby and follow her through moth-

Serenity — A final bequest to fans of the canceled TV series “Firefly,” writer/director Joss Whedon takes us on a space adventure with a Western bent.

Christmas tradition gets a modern twist By angela shelf medearis the kitchen diva
It seems like I was just planning and preparing our Thanksgiving dinner and now Christmas is upon us. If you want to change things up a little for your Christmas dinner, try modernizing an old traditional recipe. Recently, I’ve been reading about Christmas customs and holiday meals in Europe. I discovered a tradition called The Feast of the Seven Fishes, along with several delicious recipes for preparing fish. The fish is often used as a symbol of Christianity. Because of the persecution faced by the early church, when a Christian met a stranger in the road, the Christian sometimes drew one arc of the simple fish outline in the dirt. If the stranger drew the other arc, both believers knew they were in good company. Preparing and eating seafood on Christmas Eve in celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ is an old European tradition with Italian roots. Many families abstain from eating meat and serve only fish or other types of seafood on Christmas Eve. This traditional holiday meal is called The Feast of the Seven Fishes. A typical feast features cod, eel, octopus, calamari, mussels, clams, shrimp and lobster. This year, you might want to create a holiday dinner menu based on a variation of the Feast of the Seven Fishes. These recipes are budget-friendly ways to incorporate an ancient holiday tradition into a simplified, modern Christmas Eve dinner using just one pot or pan. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, ya’ll! CHRISTMAS EVE SEAFOOD PAELLA 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil 8 ounces (16 to 20) shelled, deveined shrimp 8 ounces squid (bodies), rinsed, patted dry and sliced into rounds 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Add the onion, tomatoes and the remaining salt, turmeric, paprika and the chili flakes or cayenne pepper. Cook 8 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic; cook 2 minutes. Add rice; cook 2 minutes, stirring. 3. To skillet, add broth and clam juice, stirring to distribute rice evenly in pan. Heat to boiling on medium-high. Boil, without stirring, 15 minutes. 4. Gently press the shrimp, squid and clams on top of the rice. Cover skillet with lid or foil; cook another 10 to 16 minutes or until the clams open and rice is just tender. Remove from heat. Let stand, covered, 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley and lemons. Makes 6 servings.

Snap on the lid, shake a few times, remove the lid and put the marble or marbles onto newspaper. Repeat with a marble or two in another color. Remove the paper to reveal your art. You might want to paint jingle bells along with the marbles for a fun, festive sound while shaking.
