in this year’s Puppy Bowl because of its involvement with PAL and other local animal welfare organizations, in support of the national “Subaru Loves Pets” initiative. “Helping homeless animals is something all of us at Peacock Subaru care about, as many of us have rescue pets of our own,” explained Warner Peacock, president and CEO of Peacock Automotive. “Any opportunity to support these animals and the people helping them is a win in our book.” Supported solely by individual donors and compassionate “Partners in Rescue” like Peacock Subaru, PAL’s no-kill shelter serves as a temporary residence for approximately 200 cats and dogs while they wait to find a loving home. “The PAL Adoption Center is a happy place. It’s a place of new beginnings.” says Campanini. “There is no limit to an animal’s stay with us, and we give them all the love and comfort they deserve until they are adopted.”
As they prepare for their big debut during Puppy Bowl XV, the precious Palmetto Animal League pups and all their friends at the PAL Adoption Center are anxiously awaiting the biggest win of all – a home of their own. “So many rescue pets have amazing stories to tell, and we’re excited that some of our hometown pups are getting this opportunity,” says PAL Development Coordinator Stephanie Bashaw. “It’s been an amazing experience, and we can’t wait to see our puppies on national TV.” Tune in for the most adorable grid-iron action you’ve ever seen in Puppy Bowl XV this Sunday, Feb. 3, at 3 p.m. on Animal Planet. Even better, join the Puppy Bowl Watch Party at Peacock Subaru starting at 2:30 p.m. Enjoy all the cuteness of Puppy Bowl as you snuggle with adoptable PAL puppies and munch on delicious tailgate food from One Hot Mama’s. Peacock Subaru will be happily accepting donations for PAL during the party.

Reasons for Faith
Something Out of Nothing? What Caused the Universe?
A firework explodes, brilliant in the night sky.
There must be a cause for the universe’s existence.
Without thinking about it, we assume that there is a reason for the loud sounds and colorful lights we perceive. An empty sky wouldn’t explode into these bright, purposeful patterns on its own. There must be a cause of this explosion.
Different thinkers throughout history have used logical reasoning to explore how the universe could have come into existence. One famous argument goes like this: 1) Everything that begins to exist has a cause for its existence. 2) The universe began to exist. 3) The universe must therefore have a cause for its existence. Like the firework exploding in the sky, the universe cannot have begun to exist unless it had a cause beyond itself.
The universe didn’t always exist; it had a beginning.
In the 1920s, scientists discovered that galaxies are moving away from each another at incredible speeds. Further discoveries led scientists to conclude that the universe began expanding outwards from a single point about 13.7 billion years ago. At this moment, all matter and energy came into existence, as well as time and space. But since science is limited to observations within time and space, it cannot explain how or why the universe came into existence out of nothing.
What kind of cause could have created the universe?
As we use logical reasoning to examine what could have created the universe, certain truths about this “First Cause” become clear. This First Cause must transcend time and space, for neither existed until it created the universe. Since it is timeless, it is eternal, without beginning or end. Since it transcends space, it is non-physical, or immaterial. Since it can create a universe out of nothing, there must be no limits to its power; it is all-powerful. This First Cause must have chosen to create the universe.
If the First Cause is immaterial, timeless, and all-powerful, it cannot have created the universe out of necessity; it must have chosen to do so. Therefore, it is not a mindless force, but a personal being that freely chose to create the universe. In other words, the First Cause is not a something but a someone. The First Cause is what Christians refer to as God.
God is traditionally understood as an eternal, immaterial, and all-powerful being who freely chose to create the universe. While these reflections do not tell us everything about him, and they cannot be verified in a laboratory, they nonetheless carry weight. They help us see that belief in God is reasonable and compatible with our scientific understanding of the universe.

History Lecture scheduled at Tabernacle Baptist Church
African American Attorneys: Their Role in Developing Modern Civil Rights The Beaufort History Museum and Beaufort County Historical Society, both celebrating their 80th anniversaries, are collaborating with the historic Tabernacle Baptist Church and Beaufort County Library to present an upcoming lecture by University of South Carolina Professor W. Lewis Burke. The lecture titled “William J.
Whipper and Jonathan Jasper Wright: Beaufort and South Carolina’s First Civil Rights Lawyers,” will take place at 6 p.m. on Feb. 7 at Tabernacle Baptist Church, 901 Craven Street. The cost is $10 for an online reservation and $15 at the door. Registration is currently open at www.BeaufortHistoryMuseum.com.

In addition, the Beaufort District Collection (BDC) of Beaufort County Library will present a slideshow of items

In his book, Burke writes, “The history of the black lawyer in South Carolina is one of the most significant untold stories of the long and trou-
bled struggle for equal rights in the state.” Beginning in Reconstruction and continuing to the modern civil rights era, 168 black lawyers were admitted to the South Carolina bar. “All for Civil Rights” is the first booklength study devoted to those lawyers’ struggles and achievements in the state that had the largest black population in the
country, by percentage, until 1930 — and that was a majority black state through 1920. Burke is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of the University of South Carolina School of Law. He also wrote “At Freedom’s Door: African American Founding Fathers and Lawyers in Reconstruction South Carolina.”

Part Irish pub band and part rock band, Gaelic Storm will bring its rousing vocals, energetic dance tunes, haunting Celtic ballads and infectious humor to the University of South Carolina Beaufort’s Center for the Arts at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 1. The band attributes its continued success to its fanatic audience, and it’s a well-diversified crowd for sure. The country-music folks adore the storytelling, the bluegrass-heads love the instrumentals, Celtic fans love their devotion to tradition, and the rockers simply relish the passion with which they play their instruments. Combining traditional Celtic music with modern rock, country and folk influences, Gaelic Storm is one of the most celebrated performance groups of Celtic music.

BCSD sets registration dates for kindergarten, pre-K students Registration for Beaufort County children whose parents want them to attend public school kindergarten or pre-kindergarten next school year will be held Feb. 1
through March 1. During that month, interested parents with children who will be 5 years old by Sept. 1, 2019, can complete kindergarten enrollment
packets at the school serving their neighborhood’s attendance area. Parents with questions about school attendance zones should call any elementary school in their area.
Parents with children who will be 4 years old by Sept. 1 can register for pre-kindergarten at their neighborhood schools. Because space is limited for Pre-K, 4-year-olds will be assessed for possible enrollment during “Child Find” screenings the week of March 4-8. Decisions on placement for Pre-K will be made at each school after children’s screenings are complete. Children are ranked in order of greatest need for participation in the program based on the provided list of at-risk indicators. Children who will be 6 years old by Sept. 1, 2019, should register for first grade. For all student enrollments, parents should bring their child’s birth certificate, South Carolina Certificate of Immunization (shot record) and two proofs of residency such as a utility bill showing a home address. For more information about registering a child in Beaufort
County, call your neighborhood school or the district office’s Office of Early Childhood at 521-2399. Information is also available on the school district’s website (beaufortschools.net) by clicking on “Parents,” then “Kindergarten Registration and Prekindergarten Screenings." BIRTH CERTIFICATES For children born in Beaufort County, birth certificates may be obtained from the Health Department/Vital Records office located in the Health Department at 601 Wilmington St. in Beaufort (843-525-7637). IMMUNIZATIONS Children enrolling in the Beaufort County School District are required to bring a South Carolina Certificate of Immunization, which can be obtained from a private physician or clinic, the Beaufort County Health Department, Beaufort County/Jasper Comprehensive Health Services, the Naval Hospital or
Volunteers of Medicine. Children exposed to positive stimulating experiences at a young age develop enhanced learning capabilities that improve their odds for academic success. Children who attend preschool or other early education programs show evidence of: • Enhanced cognitive, verbal and social development which is maintained into the first few years of school. • Significantly higher IQs. • Positive impacts on children’s health and dental care. • Positive impacts on children’s emotional and behavioral outcomes. • Reduced criminal behaviors and reduced incidence of substance abuse. • Less retention and placement in special education classes. • Higher graduation rates.
TCL Culinary Institute set to open next year
The Technical College of the Lowcountry’s Culinary Institute of the South is set to open in the fall of 2020 in Bluffton's Buckwalter Place. This 26,000 square-foot state-of-the-art facility is funded by more than $11.5 million from Beaufort County, Beaufort County School District and the Town of Bluffton. The Institute will offer associate degrees and certificates in a variety of in-demand culinary disciplines and specialties and will feature six academic classrooms, two teaching kitchens, two bake labs, a lecture theater and a teaching restaurant. Also integral to the Institute
B2
JANUARY 31-FEBRUARY 6, 2019
is The Interpretive Center, an interactive museum that will showcase immersive exhibits, guest lecturers and hands-on seminars. The Center is the first of its kind in the South and will attract residents and tourists alike to discover the history of Southern food. Like any good culinary endeavor, the better the chef, the better the experience, and TCL thinks it has one of the best. Chef Miles Huff has been tapped to oversee TCL's expansive project and brings leadership and experience to the table. "The Institute will elevate culinary as a profession and as an industry here in the Low-
country," Huff said. Huff is a graduate of Johnson and Wales and an American Culinary Federation (ACF) Certified Culinary Educator (CCE). It's Huff's passion for students that really sets him apart. His standards are high but his personal approach in the classroom helps students succeed. In addition, he is dedicated to expanding partnerships with area high schools, which will enhance the pipeline to TCL's programs and to local employers. The College seeks to raise an additional $2 million in private contributions to support student scholarships and start-up costs.
FOOD RECIPE
SUPER BOWL RAM-PAT TACOS By Leigh Moss What Lowcountry spin can we put on our Super Bowl gameday party? After all, Super Bowl Sunday is a celebration of the end of the football season regardless of which team you support. (Go Steelers!) We came up with a new term and a new dish that maybe you should try out this Sunday — “Fan Leigh Food Fusion,” Moss which refers to the method of mixing popular foods from each team’s towns. Recognizing that in the Low Country we don’t have a hometown team in the Super Bowl, we chose to add our local favorite foods to the mix. Here is what we’ll be working with as we prep to party for the big game: L.A. Rams Fan Foods: • Doughnuts • Salads with avocado • Bacon-wrapped hot dogs • Guerrilla tacos • L.A. Rams French dip New England Patriots Fan Foods: • Oyster stew • Clam chowder • Lobster rolls • Boston baked beans • Fish and chips
Lowcountry Sports Fan Foods: • Oysters – “Po Boy” sandwich • Shrimp – Shrimp and grits • Chicken and waffles We rolled everything together and came up with a mini ‘Po Boy’ shrimp and oyster taco topped with avocado and baked beans. It gives a whole new meaning to the term slider. The beans can be a topping or on the side, everything else seems to work well. We went to a local Mexican restaurant, Berto’s, and got the chef’s recipe for their great shrimp tacos1
and added fried oysters to the recipe and an optional baked bean topping. Making them mini tacos is optional, but because it tasted so good, we just stayed with the full-size corn tortilla shells. The shells can be hard or soft. Apparently, most patrons like the hard tacos better, but I am told that the soft corn tortillas taste better. Here is the recipe we used, but feel free to call an audible and add your own twist. SUPER BOWL RAM-PAT TACOS A little Boston and a little L.A. with a lot of our Lowcounty fan favorites.
We are highlighting fresh local oysters and shrimp and adding Boston baked beans and California avocados to a local restaurant’s shrimp taco recipe to create the perfect blend of our best local foods for a super gameday party dish. Prep Time: 60 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Serves: 12 INGREDIENTS: 2 dozen oysters 2 dozen jumbo shrimp 4 green bell peppers, chopped 3 red bell peppers, chopped 2 medium onions, chopped 3 tomatoes, chopped
from the chef 3 avocados, diced into small chunks 1 bunch cilantro, chopped 4 jalapeno peppers, chopped 8 limes Salt and pepper, to taste 12 corn tortillas 2 15-oz. cans baked beans INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Squeeze the juice of 6 limes onto your shrimp and oysters and let them marinate for one hour. 2. While your seafood is marinating, chop onions, tomatoes, jalapenos, bell peppers, and cilantro and chunk avocados and place in separate bowls. 3. Cook baked beans as directed. 4. Sauté the shrimp and oysters in butter or oil for 5 minutes, then add bell peppers and cook another 5 minutes. 5. Place shrimp, oysters and peppers on corn tortillas shells. 6. Top with with baked beans, onion, tomato, jalapenos, and cilantro as desired. 7. Add avocado chunks and a lime juice and serve. Credit and Thanks to Berto’s Owner Norberto Lopez for his Shrimp Taco Recipe. 1
By Norberto Lopez Pico de Gallo is a classic Mexican condiment made with tomatoes, onions and chilies (jalapenos, salt and peppers, and lime juice Norberto optional). It is Lopez a perfect topping for tacos or tostados.

WINE & DINE
High Silver Terrazas By Celia Strong Argentina is the fifth-largest wine producing country in the world, behind Italy, France, Spain and the United States. The first grape vines were brought into Argentina in 1557, when Spain was trying to colonize the Americas — 72 years before the first vinifera vines came to the United States. In time, Italian immigrants came to Argentina, too, and brought vines and winemaking skills. To this day, Argentine Celia food and wine Strong are influenced by both Spanish and Italian traditions, with touches from France — the source for their Malbec vines. The quality of Argentine wines was slow to develop. Originally, quantity was more important than quality. Combined with the extenuating circumstances that included high transportation costs to move wines from way up in the Andes to areas with more people and exporting facilities, tariffs imposed within the country on some of their own products, and very high consumption rates by their own population, the Argentine wine industry
remained on a slow and difficult growth curve. Fortunately, in the late-20th century, with financial investments from other wine-producing countries and more and more experts in growing and winemaking coming in from other countries, things began to improve. Now, Argentina’s best wines compete with those from other countries — and often win. Terrazas de los Andes is a winery that was founded in 1996 by Moët-Hennessey. It is located in Luján de Cuyo, a superb sub-region in Mendoza. Their emphasis is on Malbec, though they also make Cabernets, Chardonnays, Torrontes and red blends. Their vineyards are planted on terraces (hence the winery name) at various altitudes on the eastern foothills of the massive Andes Mountains. With research, including soil analysis and electro-conductivity mapping, they have determined the best elevation and climate for each variety. In recent years, Terrazas has expanded its portfolio to include an upper tier of single vineyard and parcel designated Malbec wines, a collaboration with Ch Cheval Blanc from Bordeaux that produces Cheval de los Andes, a red blend, and, for
everyday drinking, a less expensive tier — Altos del Plata. Our wine this week is the Altos del Plata Malbec. Its name, roughly translated, means “high place of silver” — a reference to the silver-colored snow-covered peaks of the Andes. These grapes are grown in high elevation vineyards in Luján de Cuyo and other parts of Mendoza. These vineyards, which are about the same altitude as ski slopes in the Rockies, get very warm during the sunny days and much cooler at night. We’ve learned before how this daily up and down of warm and cool lets the grapes develop extraordinary flavors, textures and complexities. And, because these high-elevation vineyards tend to be on the dry side, the vines’ roots are forced downward, deep into the soil, again producing more flavors, textures and complexities. The grapes are hand harvested, some at the end of the day when their flavors are the fullest, some during evenings when their acidities are more balanced. The grapes are destemmed and maceration lasts five days. Fermentation is done with selected yeasts and lasts about 15 days, then the wine is aged for about eight months in French oak barrels. The wine is clarified, filtered and bottled
early to maintain its freshness. The Altos Malbec is an intense red/purple color. It has aromas and flavors of red raspberries, blackberries, plums, black cherries, figs, vanilla and caramel. There
are also hints of eucalyptus and herbs. All intense but still balanced. The texture is smooth, rich and juicy, with ripe tannins. This is a structured, balanced wine with an exceptionally long finish. It
pairs excellently with beef, as well as aged cheeses, stewed meats, grilled meats and poultry, pasta dishes, seafood and more. All for $9.99. Enjoy! Celia Strong works at Bill’s Liquor & Fine Wines on Lady’s Island.

VOICES
Governor names Sommerville to much-needed Floodwater Commission By Bill Rauch Recognizing that river and coastal flooding in recent years has caused multiple injuries, the loss of lives, and extensive property damage throughout South Carolina, Gov. Henry McMaster has empaneled a statewide Floodwater Commission and named Beaufort County Council Vice Chairman Paul Sommerville to it. The commission is chaired by Tom Mulliikin, the Camden-based environmental lawyer and Coastal Carolina research professor whose expertise is the worldwide economic impact of climate change. “Beaufort County, along with many other areas of South Carolina, is vulnerable to flooding due to rising tides and rain events,” Sommerville said last week. “This statewide commission will
look for real solutions to real problems, present and future.” One possible such solution was proposed last week by another commission member, State Sen. Stephen Goldfinch, who represents Horry County. Goldfinch’s proposal, known as the South Carolina Resilience Revolving Fund Act, or S.259, would create a fund to make l ow - i n t e re s t loans to local Bill governments Rauch who would in turn buy out South Carolina homeowners in their jurisdictions whose homes have been repeatedly flooded; raze the houses; and leave the purchased land in open space. Goldfinch says there are 300 homes in South Carolina that
have been flooded and rebuilt with taxpayer (National Flood Insurance) dollars an average of five times. He adds there are 750 more homes that have been flooded and rebuilt twice. Most of these homeowners, Goldfinch says, “can’t afford to move, but at the same time taxpayers can’t afford for them to stay.” In the past three years Hurricanes Florence and Michael (2018), Hurricane Irma (2017), and Hurricane Matthew (2016) have provided repeated reminders of various localities’ vulnerabilities to flooding. Hurricane Florence, for example, closed portions of I-95 from mile markers 164 to 181 for a week last September, and U.S. 17 near Georgetown and 169 other roads were closed statewide at the same time due to flooding or the
risk of it. In 2016, Hurricane Matthew’s floodwaters also closed I-95 and were responsible for four South Carolina deaths. These treacherous natural disasters have been combined with tides that have been rising at a compounding average of 3.25 millimeters per year for the past hundred years, creating an ever-increasing peril for coastal properties and their owners. Former Charleston Mayor Joe Riley embarked that city on an aggressive floodwater control program that has been continued by the city’s current mayor, South Carolina Floodwater Commission member John Tecklenburg. Depending on what infrastructure improvements are counted, Charleston is hundreds of millions of dol-
lars into a program to create drainage, water tunnels, pumps and seawalls designed largely to keep unwanted seawater out of the city’s historic district. And the city is clearly and necessarily just getting started, as flooding there seems, despite the city’s efforts, to be getting worse, not better. Last year’s November king tides, for example, that were accompanied by no rainfall caused some Charleston streets to be flooded three days in a row, according to Post and Courier reports. Last month, a new Ashley River floodwater barrier was proposed that would protect downtown Charleston’s burgeoning medical campus by “hard armoring” (constructing concrete and steel seawalls) along a raised Lockwood Drive.
Beaufort County currently has no “hard armoring” under consideration, according to Planning Director Eric Greenway. But that doesn’t mean the county’s taxpayers aren’t footing the ever-increasing bill to “soft armor” the county’s infrastructure against the ever-rising floodwaters. “Every year the county trucks and spreads more fill dirt to protect its road system from the rising tides than it did the year before,” says County Public Works Director David Wilhelm. “And if current projections hold, that upward trend will continue here indefinitely.” Solutions will be costly for sure, but good for the governor for recognizing the need and getting after it. Bill Rauch was the mayor of Beaufort from 1999-2008. Email Bill at TheRauchReport@gmail.com.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
The Last Picture Show In the early 1970s there was an award-winning film entitled “The Last Picture Show.” It took place in a small rural town where residents were moving out, businesses were closing and the town was dying a slow death. Due to dwindling attendance, the local movie theater/ picture show was forced to close its doors as well. On Dec. 30, the Beaufort Plaza Stadium multiplex theater permanently shut down, making way for a Publix supermarket. Although the Plaza Stadium and the mov-
ie theater in the aforementioned film shared the same sad fate, the circumstances are vastly different. Beaufort is not an area in decline but a vibrant, active, desirable place to live and move to. It is teeming with a growing population and families with children. The Plaza Stadium was a destination where both young and old could enjoy an outing, a celebration and look forward with enthusiasm to viewing a variety of films at a reasonable price.
The smell of popcorn and the laughter and skipping of children in the lobby were a joy to behold! It was an entertainment venue in an area that does not boast a variety of activities for young people. The Drive-In Theater on Highway 21 is an entirely different experience. For the above reasons, many people I have spoken to expressed disappointment and surprise at the closing of Plaza Stadium. I suppose that despite two grocery stores nearby, namely Bi-Lo and
Walmart, another Publix on this side of town will be a convenience for local shoppers. The question is: Why sacrifice a vital part of our community by building the supermarket on this space? Everywhere you look there are countless “For Sale” signs boasting acreage of all sizes which could have easily accommodated a Publix. It will also create a lot of traffic at an area that is already congested. The answer is simple. No one could easily challenge a goliath like the Publix corporation and this letter could probably be filed under “just some people talking.” But isn’t it a shame that more thought, consideration and community input couldn’t have gone into a decision that will make a tear in the heart

When I was a child and we would have company over at our house, my mother would pull out a set of sheets, a blanket, and two pillows and prepare the sofa bed where our guests could sleep. I was reminded of this recently when a friend of mine told me she had been visiting relatives and had to sleep on a sofa bed. She said that the bed was as uncomfortable as I might remember. It has been years since I have thought about sofa beds. Were they even made anymore? The one we had when I was little was a brown couch with two long cushions. It seemed such a miracle to watch my mother transform the couch into a bed. If you recall, the mattresses had to be smaller than the average mattress to allow for the bed to be stuffed into the couch. That meant that the sheets never quite fit the mattress. Often in the morning, we
would find a guest wrapped up like a mummy as the sheets and blanket came unraveled. A disadvantage for us kids was we had to keep quiet until our guests woke up. But fortunately, they did not sleep long because most people would feel the springs in the bed coming through the three-inch mattress and wake up with aches and pains. Through the years, the sofa beds have gotten a little better and the last one I had in my house was somewhat comfortable. The only problem was that for the sofa bed to become more comfortable, the manufacturer had to use heavier wood and stronger springs along with a thicker mattress. Consequently, it took four strong men to move the couch. We opted to let our sofa bed go with our last house when we sold it. The real estate listing read: Sofa

bed included with house. Nowadays we use air mattresses when company arrives. The beds inflate automatically with electric pumps and there is no need to use a bicycle pump. The new air mattresses are marketed using descriptions like “comfort plush” and “luxury raised.” They are large, comfortable and easy to store and a far cry from the sleeping option my parents used. Now, our visitors enjoy staying longer. Which brings me back to an old saying credited to Ben Franklin, “Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.” Maybe those old sofa beds had a real purpose after all. Like my friend said, after a few days on that sofa bed, she could not wait to get back home to her own bed. Could that be the whole idea? Maybe it is time for us to go couch shopping again.

Long lost dreams from the Congo
2018 NISSAN MURANO S
By Scott Graber It’s Saturday morning and I’m sitting in my tasteful, minimalist dining room watching the two squirrels harvest birdseed that has fallen from our feeder onto our still-wet deck. This morning I’ve got the Wall Street Journal, which tells us that Felix Tshisekedi has won Scott the presidency Graber in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The name, Tshisekedi, rings a faint bell in my fading, faulty memory. But as I read the piece my memory carries me back to the spring of 1993, when Felix Tshisekedi’s father, Etienne Tshisekedi, was doing battle with Mobutu Sese Seko for control of the Democratic Republic of Congo — though in those days we called it Zaire. In those long-gone days I had a room at the M’Bamou Palace Hotel overlooking the Stanley Pool on the Congo River — then called the Zaire River — in a small, obscure country now called Congo/ Brazzaville. In the evening, those of us staying at the M’Bamou Palace could go up to the rooftop bar, where one could drink beer and watch tracer rounds light up the sky over Kinshasa — just across the Zaire River — in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In those troubled days Mobutu Sese Seko was the president of Zaire and Etienne Tshisekedi was prime minister. Tshisekedi had accused Mobutu of stealing millions of dollars — and putting the money in Swiss bank accounts — and had become the face of Mobutu’s opposition in Zaire. Normally, Mobutu had little or no opposition. As long as he paid his army he was secure. But now there was
