Firefighters stay busy saving lives
Scott Harris, an off-duty firefighter with the Lady’s Island-St. Helena Fire District, was returning to the boat ramp after a family day on the Beaufort River last weekend. Heading toward the Lady’s Island ramp, he drove under the Richard V. Woods Memorial Bridge just as he had many other times before. But this trip would be unlike any of the others, as his wife, Stephanie, witnessed a man fall from Scott Harris and his the bridge. wife, Stephanie. Stephanie Firefighters save two H a r r i s homes threatened immediately by a garage fire. notified her See story husband who PAGE 2 didn’t quite understand what she was saying. It was then that Firefighter Harris noticed someone flailing their arms and gasping for air between the pilings of bridge. Harris knew that he was the closest person to be able to help so he wheeled his boat around and asked his wife to take the wheel. Scott directed his wife to drive straight through the pilings near where they had last seen the man. As Stephanie drove through, Scott dove out of the boat in the immediate vicinity of where they believed the man was. Scott reported initially not being able to find the man after he saw him go under. But with a few shallow dives and a sweep of his arms, Scott was able to feel the man underwater. RESCUE continued on page 2

Firefighters save homes threatened by blaze Quick action by Beaufort-Port Royal firefighters saved two homes threatened by a garage fire Monday afternoon that was so hot it partially melted a boat. A resident of the property in the 1700 block of Aster Street was treated by Beaufort County EMS for burns to his hand suffered when a refrigerator in the garage caught fire. At 3:30 p.m. Monday, July 8, Beaufort-Port Royal firefighters responded to a call to Aster Street in the Waddell Gardens neighborhood of Beaufort. Firefighters arrived to find a garage engulfed by fire. The home in front of the garage and a neighboring house were in danger of catching fire. “The fire was so hot it had already partially melted a boat and two cars and had ignited all the nearby trees,” Beaufort Fire Chief Sammy Negron said. “Without quick actions, we could have seen serious property damage in the neighborhood.” The first arriving fire crews quickly sprayed water on the two homes, while other fire crews and Beaufort police began searching for the occupant. Firefighters pushed the fire away

The victim insisted on clinging to the piling which was covered with barnacles as he advised Firefighter Harris that he could not swim. Harris was not at all keen on this idea as he is allergic to shell fish.

editorial/news from the homes in seconds, leaving only minor damage. Rescuers found the home’s occupant in the back yard and moved him to safety. After those critical issues were addressed, firefighters gained control of the garage fire in about six minutes, Negron said. Beaufort/Port Royal firefighters continued to extinguish hot spots for the next two hours and were assisted by firefighters from the Burton Fire District. No emergency responders were injured during this incident.
Despite scrapes and scratches from the barnacles, both men were thrown a life vest from Stephanie as their oldest daughter maintained control of the boat. Finally in a somewhat safe condition, the Harris’ began to talk the man into their boat. That is when officers with the SCDNR arrived and assisted the man into their boat while Harris gratefully returned to his. Both boats with all their passengers made their way to the Lady’s Island boat ramp where on duty firefighters, EMS
crews, and additional law enforcement officers were present. In all, emergency responders from the Lady’s Island-St. Helena Fire District, City of Beaufort Police Department, Beaufort County EMS, Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office, and the SC Department of Natural Resources responded. Only the patient was transported to Beaufort Memorial Hospital as Firefighter Harris was treated at the fire station for precautionary measures given his strong allergy to shellfish.
The Beaufort County fiscal year 2014 budget is now available to be viewed online. County Council passed the budget Monday June 24, 2013. That budget went into effect this past Monday. To see the Beaufort County FY14 budget go to http://www.bcgov. net/departments/Finance/finance/ Budget-2014.php.
Series of vehicle break-ins investigated
The Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office is investigating a series of vehicle breakins that occurred overnight Saturday, July 6 in a Beaufort neighborhood. More than a dozen vehicles were reportedly entered in the Shell Point area between late Saturday night and early Sunday morning. No sign of forced entry or damage was observed to any of the vehicles, and it is believed all were left unlocked by their owners. Among the items reported stolen were small
electronics, cash, wallets, and a handgun. At this time there is no information regarding any possible suspect(s). Residents are encouraged to secure their vehicles and remove any items of value before leaving them unattended. Any noted suspicious person(s) or activity should be reported immediately by contacting the Beaufort County Dispatch Center at 843-524-2777.
County implementing new building codes
Any Beaufort County resident wanting to apply for a permit will have to pay attention to new Building Codes that went into effect July 1, 2013. The implementation of the 2012 International Code Series with state modifications and the 2011 National Electric Code went into effect. Every county in South Carolina that does not legally “Opt out” of the Code Enforcement Program, must enforce the mandatory building codes referenced in Section 6-9-50 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, 1976 as
amended and adopted by the Building Codes Council. Counties are further restricted from promoting their own building codes, in whole or in part or adopting and enforcing building codes other than those adopted by the Building Codes Council. “Local officials have no discretion or say in determining what building codes will be mandated by the State Building Codes Council. We as local Building Officials are directed under state law to enforce the statewide mandated codes as they are adopted and amended by the State. We will continue to focus on providing exceptional customer service to those who require our services and will do everything we can to assist our customers in their transition to the newly updated codes”, said Director of Beaufort County Building Codes Chuck Atkinson. A comprehensive list of code changes and S.C. state code amendments may be found at the Beaufort County Building Codes Department website: http:// www.bcgov.net/departments/PublicSafety/building-codes/index.php.

If I knew then what I know now ... By Martha O’Regan
The more I learn about the proper use of the mind in bringing health, happiness and success, the more I wish for a “do over.” As it turns out, we can have what we wish for — it is called imagination. The brain doesn’t know the difference between what we perceive and what is imagined — they both create neural pathways that affect our health, behaviors, relationships and even our surroundings. We can go back to an experience from decades ago that at the time we perceived as bad and imagine it again with a perception of good and it will actually create a new network in the brain, completely changing our physiology. We don’t change the facts, only the energy in which it is stored. How cool is that? Allow me to explain. First, remember that everything is energy, including every thought, feeling, word and deed. Simply put, positive energy is expansive and alive with frequency while negative energy is contractive and sluggish

in frequency. Every experience is neutral until you decide which energy to charge it with — positive or negative — and that perception immediately translates into your physical body as either one of survival (contractive) or ease (expansive). Next, we have our mental hard drive (aka the brain) where every experience we have ever had is stored, including everything we have ever seen, heard, touched, tasted or smelled This includes everything coming
into our peripheral awareness from in utero to date. So, many stored memories are actually due to other people that were in our lives during our development years. Each experience gets placed in a file in that hard drive based on the perspective that we deemed appropriate for it in that moment. When we were younger, these experiences were placed with the energy of the “big people” who were guiding us. These files set up a neural pathway or network that can be instantly retrieved for future use, whether it be for learning, becoming proficient in a hobby or sport, determining the best course of action in a project, or just basic survival. These pathways also have an energy attached to it that will emit into our physical body or surroundings. Those experiences that we perceived as negative with either great intensity or long duration can set up a message into the body that over time can become a symptom or a behavior that we wish we didn’t have. So, an experience
that created immense fear for a short time can get us just as stuck in the mental hard drive as long -term worry. Both can set up a mental loop that can lead to such things as tight muscles, high blood pressure, selfsabotage or procrastination. Think about an experience that you wish had never happened and tune into how it feels in the body. Notice how fast you were able to retrieve that stored memory? Think about the gazillion stored memories that we judged as negative in our lifetime that are controlling our physiology 24/7/365! Eewwwhhhh ... Not interested in that. So, knowing what we know now about the brain, we can go back to an experience and without changing the facts, see the lesson or look at it again through the lens of forgiveness, gratitude, love, peace or joy, creating a brand new neural pathway in the brain, allowing for more appropriate physiology. Aahhhhhhh ... now that feels better already. Live Well ... Have Fun.

yoga pose of the week: dancer’s pose (natarajasana) By Elizabeth Vanderpool • Photo by Mark Vanderpool
Dancer’s Pose is a beautiful pose to work on balance and leg strength. To take Dancer pose, begin in a standing position with both hands down at your sides. Lift your left arm straight up to the sky and take your right arm behind your body with your palm facing outward. Lift your right foot behind you bringing your heel to your tailbone and take the inside of your right foot into your right hand. Bring your knees together and create your balance here. Take two deep breaths. Inhale and lift your right foot, still held in your right hand, up toward the ceiling. Continue to lift your left arm up, as well, creating an arc from your right foot to your left hand. Keep your hips
parallel to the ground. Press firmly through your standing foot. It is important in Natarajasana to keep a micro-bend in knee of your standing leg. Never lock your joints. Pull the pit of your belly in and up. Press your chest toward the front of the room as you press your right leg up and toward the back of the room. Activate the muscles of your legs and arms. Create stability by hugging into the centerline of your body from skin, to muscle to bone. Lean forward to maintain your balance as you deepen this pose. Hold for five deep breaths and then repeat on the other side. For more great poses visit Dancing Dogs Yoga in Beaufort, Bluffton or Hilton Head.

Surgery for age-related droopy eyelids can help appearance, even vision By Kenneth Farr, M.D.
Your eyes are perhaps one of the first things other people notice about you, and are a very important part of your overall appearance. However, for many people, the normal aging process also often brings some unwanted consequences when it comes to the appearance of their eyes — with droopy eyelids, sagging eyebrows and bags under the eyes often giving people a tired appearance … and making them look older than they actually are. Droopy eyelids, also called ptosis, are a problem for millions of aging Americans. As we go through life, even if we have taken excellent care of ourselves, the skin around our eyes stretches and wrinkles. Fatty deposits cause the upper lids to sag, while under the eye the tissue bulges forward and becomes discolored. In addition to making a person look older, tired and drowsy, in severe cases, loose and sagging skin can also affect vision, partially blocking vision and sometime affecting peripheral or side vision. In addition, many people with eyelid ptosis complain of an aching in their eyebrows – as they must often continuously raise their eyebrows in order to see. There are a number of causes of droopy eyelids, including age, sun exposure, smoking, alcohol use, poor nutrition and heredity. Once thought to be an Living to a ripe old age, or longevity, is becoming a real accepted part of aging, more and more retirement risk.

The procedure can markedly reduce Kenneth aging changes Farr, M.D. beneath the eyes and eliminate visual obstruction while making you look more rested and alert. In addition, once droopy eyelids are improved through blepharoplasty, vision can be improved by providing a less obstructed field of view. Blepharoplasty, which is performed on an out-patient basis and involves little recovery time, can be performed on either the upper eyelid, lower eyelid or both at one time. The surgery is most often performed by an ophthalmologist or oculoplastic surgeon. When choosing a surgeon, it is important to choose not only a board certified ophthalmologist who knows the anatomy and structure of the eyelids and orbit, but also one who has had extensive training in ophthalmic plastic reconstructive and cosmetic surgery. Eyelid surgery is an important option for people who want to not only look younger and freshen their appearance, but who may be experiencing vision problems due to droopy eyelids. Although vision problems resulting from eyelid drooping as people age may be gradual, excessive sagging of the upper eyelid is both a medical and cosmetic concern for many individuals. Contact an ophthalmologist to discuss your options for looking, and feeling, years younger when it comes to your eyes. Dr. Farr can be found at Palmetto Eye Specialists, www.palmettoeye.com.

GRAND OPENING IN BEAUFORT TINGLING? NUMBNESS? LEG PAIN? FOOT PAIN? Everyday we have more success relieving (the effects of) Neuropathy.
It Pays to Live at Bay South!
NOW It’s Your Turn for Relief! NEUROPATHY: DON’T JUST LIVE WITH YOUR SYMPTOMS, RELIEVE THEM!
Do You Suffer From THESE SYMPTOMS OF NEUROPATHY?
That numbness and tingling in your hands and feet, or that restless leg that keeps you from getting a good night’s rest, might be more than just an annoyance. It could be the early onset of a nerve debilitating problem called neuropathy. Neuropathy can lead to discomfort, pain and even amputation. Damage can be permanent.
• • • • • • •
What Is Neuropathy?
Neuropathy is one of the most common forms of debilitating nerve diseases. It is estimated that as many as 20 million Americans, about one in seventeen people, suffer from this illness. It can occur at any age, but is more common among people over 45. With neuropathy, the tiny nerves that serve the skin fail in their ability to transmit normal sensations to the brain, such as decreased feeling in the legs and feet. When these nerves become aggravated they are responsible for causing pain, swelling, burning, lack of balance and other symptoms associated with the disease. There is good news. The new office of Lowcountry Neuropathy concentrates in treating neuropathy, and has successfully treated many neuropathy patients using state-of-the-art technology. The medical team of Lowcountry Neuropathy have helped many patients get their lives back without painful surgeries and addictive medications. Their neuropathy protocols have an excellent success rate and can clinically reduce or eliminate the effects of neuropathy.

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF NEUROPATHY?
$500 Can Be Yours!!!
Neuropathy has many different causes. The most common metabolic cause that we see in our office is in patients with diabetes. Nearly 60% of all people with diabetes develop neuropathy. As if the pain, numbness, swelling, burning, tingling, sleepless nights, balance issues, along with all the other symptoms that go along with neuropathy aren’t bad enough, approximately 86,000 Americans each year undergo amputations as a result of uncontrolled neuropathy.

Who survives the deadliest type of heart attack?
James Harvey, for one. He didn’t know he was having the deadliest kind of heart attack, but when he arrived at Beaufort Memorial, an interventional cardiologist at the hospital’s Duke-affiliated Cochrane Heart Center did. The surgeon quickly performed percutaneous coronary intervention, an emergency procedure that saved James’ life. Now his heart is back where it belongs—in the heart of the Lowcountry woods.

the 58th annual beaufort water festival
MEET the COMMODORE
after years of hard work, dan thompson leads the way By Carson Moore
“
First Lady Bonnie Thompson and Water Festival Commodore Dan Thompson are seen on stage at last year’s event.
reserve police officer that initially introduced him to the Water Festival scene. “Rick Chapman, a friend of ours, was in charge of security that year [2000],” said Thompson, “His son-in-law and I came down to be extra security for the Street Dance that year, and that was the first time I’d ever been to any part of the festival.” Although his first festival experience consisted mainly of sweat and hard work, Thompson admitted that he had enjoyed himself, and decided to keep coming back for more. Throughout the 13 years that they have volunteered with the Water Festival celebrations, Thompson and his wife have worked up through the volunteer ranks. Last year, Dan held his most difficult position to date — program coordinator. The program coordinator, as
second in command of the festival, is charged with the task of overseeing the yearround planning and execution. These coordinators are essential to making the Water Festival Beaufort’s biggest and most memorable event, as they work to assemble all the volunteers, vendors, and entertainers necessary for the festival to operate flawlessly. “There are more physically difficult jobs,” explains Thompson, “but that was the most demanding position to do.” The years of work seem to have paid off, although it seems that the Commodore will miss his hands-on role in the festival. “It’s kind of a bittersweet moment,” Thompson said, “From this point forward, I’ll be involved with the festival, but not the day-to-day activities. I’ll miss working with the people in the park, but my
family will still be down here for the shows every night.” For the Commodore, taking a step back from the festival planning will be a major turning point. For the first time in 13 years, he won’t be assisting the Water Festival group in planning the next Water Festival. The Water Festival group devotes the entire year not only to the planning of the next festival, but also to tourism in Beaufort as a whole. They participate in the Soft Shell Crab festival, the Tricentennial celebrations, Gullah Festival, and even Candice Glover’s homecoming concert on Bay Street. “We loan out our knowledge and people to other groups that are trying to get up and running,” explained Thompson, “We get involved with as much as we can to bring tourists to Beaufort.” This summer, the Thompsons are particularly excited to be including Dragon Boat Beaufort in the Water Festival celebrations. The Dragon Boats will be racing Saturday, July 20, the day after opening ceremonies, from noon to 5 p.m. As Commodore, Thompson enjoys being able to include activities and events in the festival the benefit not only the people involved, but the whole community. For him, the best part of being Commodore isn’t the title, the perks, or the time in the spotlight. It’s the ability to give back to the community in a way that every Beaufortonian can enjoy. As he explained it: “When it’s all said and done, knowing you put on a good event for the community is really the best thing about it.” Luckily, putting on a good show for the town is a skill that both Thompson and the First Lady possess.

D
an and Bonnie Thompson, the Commodore and First Lady of the 2013 Water Festival, look completely at home standing under the pavilion in Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park, with sailboats full of beachgoers moving slowly along behind them. In fact, Dan Thompson explained that the superb scenery was one of the reasons they decided to settle here. “Just look out here at the Waterfront Park,” he chuckled, “It’s beautiful. You can’t get these views anywhere but here in Beaufort.” The couple — both former Marines from the Midwest — has lived in Beaufort for nearly 24 years, and have been extremely active in the community that they have adopted as their own. Dan Thompson’s sense of serving the community was strongly encouraged in his family growing up. Both his father and uncle served on the police force in Detroit, Michigan, and he was encouraged to join the Marines as well, where he met his wife of 28 years. “We discovered Beaufort because we were stationed on Parris Island,” he explained. “Then after we got out of the Marine Corps, my wife became a 911 dispatcher here, and I became a reserve police officer.” The Thompsons decided that Beaufort was an excellent place to settle down with their daughter, Amanda. Dan Thompson, a Hargray telephone employee of 22 years, was not initially a Water Festival attendee. While his wife and daughter had visited some of the festival’s events before, Dan found himself beginning his volunteer work almost accidentally. In fact, it was Thompson’s time as a
When it’s all said and done, knowing you put on a good event for the community is really the best thing about it.

indie film corner: ‘this is martin bonner’ The movie “This is Martin Bonner” will be presented at USCB Center For the Arts on Monday, July 15 at 7 p.m. In this Sundance Award Winning film, two men each search in their quiet solitude to begin a new life amidst an unspoken need for encouragement and support. Martin Bonner has just moved to Reno from the East Coast, leaving behind his two adult children and a life he spent more than two decades building. Having recently declared bankruptcy, he’s working as a volunteer helping prisoners transition to freedom. It’s Martin’s first job in two years.
Travis Holloway, a recently released prisoner in the program, sent back into the work world with nothing , also finds life difficult to adjust to. The lives and stories of Martin and Travis begin to converge as the find that they have much in common. Their unlikely friendship blossoms but is put to the test when Travis betrays Martins trust. “The writer and director, Chad Hartigan, transforms the potentially maudlin premise into a luminous reach for grace,” said Richard Brody of The New Yorker. Tickets for adults are $7, seniors $6, students $5. Call USCB Center for the Arts box office at 843-521-4145 or purchase day of performance. Box office opens one hour prior to show time.

A preview of Verdi’s opera ‘Il Trovatore’ By Alan Schuster
Verdi’s “Il Trovatore” by The Met Opera: Encored will be showing at the USCB Center for the Arts on Wednesday, July 17, at 1 p.m. Francis Toye, Giuseppe Verdi’s preeminent biographer, wrote this about “Il Trovatore” in his book, published in 1931: “It is perhaps the nearest approach to a purely singers’ opera that Verdi ever wrote .... with its extraordinary wealth of melody, that assures its triumph.” At its premiere in Rome in 1853, the entire final act had to be encored in its entirety. And yet, it was not flawless because while the music was incomparable, the libretto was inscrutable. But surprisingly, while it doesn’t make much sense, the melodies are so beautiful that one hardly pays attention to the plot or the words. Principal cast: Count Di Luna, a general in the King’s army; Ferrando, a captain of the guard; Leonora, a lady-in-waiting; Azucena, a gypsy woman; Manrico, her presumed son and rebel commander. In early 15th century Spain, Ferrando is recounting a story to his men. Many years ago, when the Count was a little boy, his brother was bewitched by an old gypsy woman. When she was burned alive at the stake, her daughter, Azucena, was determined to avenge her death. One night the Count’s brother disappeared, and the bones of a child were found where the gypsy woman had been killed. Leonora is in love with Manrico, a troubadour. One night she thinks she hears his voice and hastens to meet him — but it is the Count, also in love with her. The men duel over Leonora, and Manrico is injured. At a gypsy camp, Azucena nurses him back to health. He thinks that she is his mother; the truth is that when she stole Di Luna’s brother so long ago, she threw her own child into the fire by mistake and then kept Manrico as her own. Believing Manrico to be dead, Leonora decides to enter a convent. Di Luna tries to kidnap her, but Manrico arrives in the nick of time. Di Luna’s men capture Azucena, and when it becomes known that she is the daughter of the old gypsy woman, she too is

sentenced to be burned at the stake. Manrico and Leonora are about to wed when he hears of Azuena’s capture and rushes off to rescue her. Manrico is now a prisoner in Di Luna’s jail. Leonora implores Di Luna to spare him. She offers up herself in his place and Di Luna accepts. Leonora swallows poison hidden inside her ring. Manrico, now free, rejects his freedom when he realizes what she has done to gain it. Leonora dies in his arms. Realizing he has been duped, Di Luna decrees that Manrico must be executed. As he is beheaded, Azucena tells Di Luna that he has just murdered his own brother. This, believe it or not, was the shortest synopsis I could find on the internet. But opera historian Dennis Forman offers a much simpler one: “It’s the one where the gypsy woman throws the wrong baby onto the bonfire and thus causes the grown-up unburnt baby to be killed by his brother.” Acts I & II highlights. Leonora: “Tacea la notte” – (How calm the night), one of several outstanding arias for her, expressing feelings for the mysterious troubadour. The immensely popular “Anvil Chorus” features gypsies hammering out a fine tune with lots of “zingarella.” Di Luna’s “Il balen” (Her fair cheek…), a beautifully-flowing melody which must make tenors jealous that Verdi assigned such a gem to a villainous
baritone. Acts III & IV highlights. Another fine chorus, warlike in spirit, begins this short act, as the gypsy soldiers prepare for battle. Manrico’s best moment is “Di quella pira” (Ah, the sight of horror... ), as he rallies his men for battle with a rousing finish. A haunting five minutes of Verdi magic begins when Leonora appears on a dark street below a prison tower where Manrico awaits execution. Before she begins a moving and anguished aria about his doomed fate, a church bell tolls, monks begin a solemn “Miserere” chant, and a death march emerges from the orchestra. Manrico, unseen from a window above, sings a marvelous farewell to life and love, softly supported only by a harp. When their voices join at the end, the brilliance of this mini-scene will likely become an unforgettable memory for those who hear it for the first time. The final ten minutes are a steady stream of inspired dramatic action. Manrico and Leonora come together moments before both are doomed to die, singing a joyful reconciliation. She dies from a poison pill; he is beheaded; and Azucena, near death herself, tells a shocked Di Luna that he has killed his brother. She cries out “Sie vendicata, o madre!” (You are avenged, mother) as the curtain closes. The cast requires four great Verdian singers, and David McVicar’s traditional production will meet all expectations. They include Sondra Radvanovsky as Leonora; Marcelo Alvarez as Manrico; Dmitri Hvorostovsky as Di Luna; and the exceptionally-fine mezzo, Dolora Zajick, as Azucena. Milton Cross, famous for 43 years as the voice of the Met’s radio broadcasts, calls Il Trovatore’s music as being “swift, spontaneous and stirring ... and no weakness in the plot can undermine the power and drive of its score.” Bravo! All tickets are $15; no reserved seating. Box office opens at the USCB Center for the Arts one hour before the 12:55 curtain. For more information, call 521-4145.

community coastal community foundation
Grant benefits Boys & Girls Club, Bridges Prep By Wendy Nilsen Pollitzer
On Friday, June 28 the Coastal Community Foundation presented two $25,000 checks to Board members and staff of the Boys & Girls Club of the Lowcountry and Bridges Preparatory School as part of a collaborative grant to fund the Learning Center of Beaufort County at the Boundary Street location. Both organizations matched the grant and will implement the Learning Center under the umbrella of their established curriculums during and after school. The Coastal Community Foundation’s ultimate goal is to improve the quality of life in Beaufort County by supporting the network of non-profits that serve our community. Edna Crews, Regional Vice President of the Coastal Community Foundation, supports and encourages the collaboration of nonprofits to seek grants. “Our job is to facilitate relationships in order to evaluate and approve grants. This collaboration between the Boys and Girls Club, Bridges Preparatory School and The Learning Center of Beaufort County is a winwin. Additionally, we have an obligation to continue to provide this fund for The Learning Center of Beaufort in perpetuity. It will always be here,” explains Crews. The Boys & Girls Club’s Executive Director, Chris Protz, is excited about the new endeavor. “This opportunity will help our students stay on track to graduate from their respective grades, therefore graduating on time from high school. The money from this grant will help us hire a certified teacher specifically for this position,” explains Protz. Joe Mix, the founder of the Boys & Girls Club of the Lowcountry agrees. “This program will serve a real need for our after school program. We appreciate the foundation awarding us this important grant,” says Mix.

The Learning Center of Beaufort will offer students the chance to fully engage in a meaningful learning process, effectively utilize their distinctive learning styles and productively pursue ongoing academic achievement. And most importantly, The Learning Center will be available to every child in Beaufort County at a variety of locations. All too often, children who possess an alternative to the verbal learning style get frustrated with mainstream teaching methods and abandon their will to learn. Students become apathetic; but, it’s not their fault. They just learn differently than most. The misunderstanding begins when many people can’t figure out why an intelligent person can’t read at their expected level. The mistreating begins when students are simply encouraged to “try harder.” Malcolm Goodridge, founder and benefactor of The Learning Center of Beaufort County, understands this frustration. He is dyslexic. But he says his dyslexia is his greatest asset. Goodridge remembers growing up and being called a “dummy” all the way through school. He took remedial
reading classes to assist him, but they didn’t help much. He fought hard through school to overcome his learning disability, eventually going on to a distinguished career as a senior executive with American Express. Now retired, he thanks his struggle with dyslexia for his continued ambition toward success. “I think that if I was a normal kid, I wouldn’t have the drive for success that I have now. I was pushed down so far, I had to figure out a way to survive,” says Goodridge. Melesia Walden, Principal of Bridges Preparatory School, appreciates Goodridge’s outreach to the community and adds, “I’d like to recognize Malcolm’s generosity and his wisdom for asking our organizations to match funds. This partnership will allow us to help students in need during the academic day and after school.” Laura McAlhaney, Coach for The Learning Center at Bridges, and Kim Durham, Treasurer of the Board at Bridges, will both have children attending the new charter school and added their thanks to Goodridge as well. “Thank you for your passion of The Learning Center,” smiles Durham. And from McAlhaney, “Thank you Malcolm for filtering so many children through the Learning Center and giving them the same opportunities you had to overcome challenges and be successful.” D.C. Gilley, Board Member of the Coastal Community Foundation, agrees. “It’s exciting to see this partnership become reality. This is a great day for Beaufort county children,” says Gilley. In addition to Goodridge, the board of the Learning Center of Beaufort County consists of Charles Kresch, past President of the Beaufort County Board of Education and David House, Board member of Beaufort Memorial Hospital and AMIkids.

St. Peter’s Catholic School has received a matching grant of $15,000 from the Coastal Community Foundation to open a Learning Center of Beaufort County at the school. The center will offer students, at St. Peter’s, the opportunity to receive learning resource services with specialized teachers in such areas as reading and math. Testing of students will also be part of the program to begin in August. “Having The Learning Center on
site allows us to help students who are struggling. We can begin the process of identification and provide services at a much earlier age and give them the opportunity to be successful as they progress through school. We want to thank the Coastal Community Foundation and especially Malcolm Goodridge — founder and benefactor of The Learning Center of Beaufort County, Inc. Fund — for their support in this endeavor,” said St. Peter’s principal, Joseph R. Benning.

Lunch Bunch After Dark savors the fabulous creativity at
MAGGIE’S PUB & EATERY
By Pamela Brownstein
From bright orange, palatecleansing cantaloupe cooler shooters to green olives stuffed with bacon Blue cheese and drizzled with barbecue sauce, the dishes at Maggie’s Pub are anything but ordinary. “I like to have fun with food,” explains Executive Chef Richard Wilson. The Lunch Bunch was treated to an amazing array of small plates and enticing entrees as dinner guests at the intimate, upscale yet laid-back restaurant in Habersham. We started with little individual puff pastries filled with warm crab dip that we all declared a must-have. Other standouts among the small plates we tried included the teriyaki-
marinated tuna tartare served with pineapple relish and fresh radish; the Feta-stuffed cherry tomato served warm on a stick with basil and aged balsamic; and the whimsical and tasty baby carrot served with wasabi peas. But don’t mistake a small serving for simplicity: As the chef pointed out, each tiny dish is made with a complex set of ingredients and flavors. (Although these particular small plates are not on the menu, diners can call ahead and request this special feature.) For the main course, April adored the famous Mibek Farms Pub Burger topped with bacon, sharp cheddar cheese and tomato, and especially the giant beer battered onion rings. Buck fell in love with Maggie’s
Top: Mibek Farms “Pub” Burger. Above: Maggie’s Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and spinach.
Meatloaf, and everyone thought the horseradish mashed potatoes were a must-have. When it came to seafood, it was easy to taste why Elizabeth’s
Pan Flashed Ahi Tuna with local egg fried rice and marinated beet strings is a best-selling dish. And Hope’s Flashed Alaska Salmon served over celery-infused rice, lemongrass cucumbers and citrus zest was light and delicious. I had the Beef Brochette made with tender strips of beef skewered with onions and grape tomatoes over creamy Gnocchi and asparagus. The handrolled, homemade Gnocchi was phenomenally good, and the tender cuts of beef made this dish a knockout. For dessert, we sampled three homemade cakes: lemon, coconut and red velvet. While all three were excellent, in a surprise victory, we all chose the lemon for its moist cake and bold, but not overpowering, flavor. The
desserts vary weekly, as do their specials, so call ahead to find out what’s on the menu. Chef Wilson takes pride in his use of seasonal ingredients, and a new “Fresh on the Menu” app developed by the South Carolina Department of Agriculture features the restaurant as a place for diners to find truly locally sourced food. As with any good pub, the drink menu is extensive and the knowledgeable bartenders and servers can suggest the best specialty beers or wines to pair with your meal. Maggie’s Pub is at 17 Market Street in Habersham and is open Tuesday through Saturday from 5 to 9 p.m. For information or reservations, call 843-379-1719 or visit www.maggiespub.net.

wine
There’s More Than One Way To Fill A Glass By Celia Strong
There’s more than one way to fill a glass, and thank goodness for that. Even though that sounds sort of funny, “more than one way” can refer to a lot of different things. The first way to fill a glass that comes to my mind is how, at wine tastings, where you go from table to table with your glass in your hand, and tell whoever is pouring which wine at their table you want to taste, some tasters hold their wine glass so that the opening is perpendicular to the surface of the table. That pretty much means that the opening is way too far over and whatever wine might manage to get poured into that glass has little chance of not coming out onto the table. I have been faced with this situation, repeatedly, and the only reason I can come up with for holding a glass this way is some weird notion that you think you might get more poured into your lopsided glass. (Trust me, you don’t. Because you can’t!) A better way to fill a wine glass might be as easy as pouring in some wine from a bottle. Into a straight up glass. And, while we’re taking the easy way, why not just make it a good bottle of wine. Well, yeh. That is what we’re here for. Right? Right. Our wine this week is a neat little find. A red from California. A blend. Of five grapes. From a “retired” winemaker. With a neat name, the wine, I mean. And, yes, easy to pour into your glass and then into your mouth. Let’s start, now, with a little information about the winemaker. Phil Laffer is an icon in the Australian wine industry. He is responsible for the development of the Jacob’s Creek line and worked with them and their importer into the United States, Pernod Ricard, since 1994. Being very reasonable and down-to-earth, he was well liked and respected both at the winery and in the vineyard as well as in the business offices and boardroom. He didn’t actually retire, but chose to slow down a bit. With more of his time available, Pernod Ricard asked him to develop their new red wine, our new red wine too, in California. (As you’ll taste, a good decision.) The new wine is a blend of five grapes. Repeat. I figure if we look, as fast as we can, at all five we’ll be able to better taste
Celia Strong works at Bill’s Liquor & Fine Wines on Lady’s Island.
The first vintage of Deadbolt was the 2010, released in October of 2012. Definitely a new wine. And the first United States wine for Pernod Ricard and Phil Laffer. It is big and bold and smooth and juicy and jammy and fruity and a bit high in alcohol (thirteen percent). Dark colored, a purplishred, it is full of cherry and plum and mocha flavors. and appreciate this wine. The first variety, in order like other food products, from highest percentage to lowest, is Cabernet Sauvignon. Cabernet is a variety we are all aware of, and the greatness of this variety in parts of California is not lost on us. The wines that Cabernet makes vary depending on how ripe the grapes are when harvested. When more unripe, green bell pepper and vegetable flavors show up in the wines. When the grapes are overripe, the wines get jammy and stewed fruit flavors. In between under and over ripe, we get the good stuff — strong fruit flavors that include black currants, black cherries and plums. In California, where ripening is much easier than in some other regions and climates, the good stuff is in the wines and in our glasses. Grape number two is Merlot. This variety, which is related to Cabernet, is a bit thinner skinned, though, so less difficult to get just ripe. Merlot also brings a softer, smoother texture (mouth feel) to its wines. Its flavors include plums, cherries (black and red), blueberries,
“There is a character and quality of life here that we all love”
boysenberries and chocolate and cola. Smooth and delicious. Number three grape is Zinfandel. Now we know our wine is moving away from the traditional Bordeaux varieties, Zinfandel being an “American” variety. (Really, we know Zinfandel came from Croatia, but California grows it the best.) Zin grapes are thinner skinned, ripen quickly because of that, and do well in warm climates. These grapes have a high sugar content so their wines tend toward slightly higher alcohol levels. Its flavors include red raspberry, from cooler growing areas, and blackberries, licorice and black pepper spice from warmer areas. Zinfandel wines have good structure and a juicy, mouth watering texture. (I hope you’re thinking about all these flavors and textures layering on top of each other. Just in liquid form, and in a glass for neatness.) Fourth in line for this wine’s grapes we get Petit Sirah. Actually, this grape is no relation at all to Syrah, or Shiraz as it is also called. Petit Sirah is a separate variety that even though it looks like a small version of Syrah is really the Durif grape. As Petit Sirah, this grape is located almost completely in California. The wonder of DNA has proven they are not related, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms has recognized Petit Sirah and Durif as interchangeable names for the same grape. This variety makes wines that have heavier tannins and spicy plum flavors. The wines are dark colored, slightly acidic, firm textured and
full in your mouth. Besides the plums, it also tastes of blue and black fruits and has hints of black pepper. (Petit Sirah wines are heavier and darker than Syrah wines.) Most Petit Sirah wines are a bit short on the finish, so blending them with other varieties is the norm. Finally, grape number five is Syrah. This is the variety we know from Australia as Shiraz, and, beside California and Australia, it is grown in most winemaking countries. Wines made from Syrah can be medium bodied with berry, chocolate, coffee flavors, mostly from cooler growing regions or heavy and spicy (black pepper, again) from warmer climates. Violets aromas are also associated with Syrah wines. With its wide range of climates, depending on site, California produces a range of styles from Syrah. One more layer into our glass. So, now we have our five grapes for this week’s wine. Time maybe for its name? Deadbolt. Like you use to cut off a lock that you’ve lost the key to. Personally, I like to think the name was chosen to make us cut off ideas locked in our heads about what wines can or should be. Since Deadbolt comes from California there are not any wine laws that say what grapes can be mixed with other grapes. Or that you can’t mix grapes from different parts of the state. You know, like Cab and Merlot have to grow in Bordeaux soil to make a Bordeaux wine. The only thing that is locked up with this Deadbolt is some great flavors and textures. The first vintage of Deadbolt was the 2010, released in October of 2012. Definitely a new wine. And the first United States wine for Pernod Ricard and Phil Laffer. It is big and bold and smooth and juicy and jammy and fruity and a bit high in alcohol (13 percent). Dark colored, a purplish-red, it is full of cherry and plum and mocha flavors. Look at that, all its grapes played their parts. I suppose we could think of this wine as a contender in the group of red blend wines that are now popular. Truthfully, some are contenders and some are winners. So, hold our glass up, straight up so you get more into it, pour some Deadbolt in, and taste it for yourself. It’s a winner and so are you. For $10.99, too. Enjoy.

Keep out of the reach of children. Children should not come in contact with the application site for 30 minutes after application. Causes eye irritation. Harmful if swallowed. Do not get in eyes or on clothing. Avoid contact with skin. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and warm water after handling. If contact with skin or clothing occurs, take off contaminated clothing. Wash skin immediately with plenty of soap and water. Jeepers! With a warning label like that you’d think this product would be banned or at least carefully monitored. But no. Every month pet owners do not read or casually disregard this very label to dribble a few drops of flea preventative on their Best Friend’s skin. The claim is that these topical or “spot on” flea control poisons, so toxic that you should remove clothing if the product touches it, will kill all fleas and ticks yet somehow magically do not get absorbed. They supposedly stay only in the sebum, the fat layer of the outer skin, and don’t get inside your animal. But wait. Skin is not a rubbery bag which dogs inhabit, is it? Skin is a living, breathing organ supplied with blood capillaries, and full of pores. These same pores are points of exchange. And yep, those chemicals end up entering your dog at those points of exchange. Many pet owners

who use the topical treatments think they are applying “medication” to their pet, because they purchase the products from their veterinarian. But they actually are treating their pets with potent pesticides, including permethrin, which also is used to kill pests on crops and yards. In 2008 the EPA began a yearlong investigation, conducted by a team of veterinarians assembled by the federal agency, and concluded that certain pets — small dogs between 10 and 20 pounds — are most susceptible to serious problems. In small animals, at the toxic dose you may see some of the following: depression, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, in-coordination, respiratory distress, convulsions, muscle tremors, or even death. Just last Christmas one of my tiny dog friends spent his entire holiday week at the vet because he lost control of his rear legs after his owner applied a topical.

incidents, according to the EPA report. There is no antidote for permethrin toxicity, and this class of chemicals is listed in the top 25 agents causing poisoning in animals by the National Animal Poison Control Center. The EPA study was instigated when incidents reported by consumers who used the products on their pets rose from 28,895 in 2007 to 44,263 in 2008, an increase of 53 percent in one year. Most of the problems were “minor” if you consider seizures, vomiting and diarrhea minor, but about 600 dogs and cats died in the incidents reported in 2008, EPA records show. The active ingredients in these topical solutions include chemicals such as imidacloprid, fipronil, permethrin, methoprene, and
pyriproxyfen, all of which have caused serious health problems in animals in laboratories. Even some of the inert ingredients can be hazardous to your animal companion’s health. “Small breed dogs were more commonly affected with the number of incidents out of proportion to their popularity,” the EPA report says. Granted, in some cases, pet owners were misusing the products, for instance, splitting a dose meant for a big dog between two small dogs to save a few bucks — but EPA officials stressed that most of the blame goes to the industry, not consumers, because of poor labeling on extremely toxic products. The next time you’re standing in the aisle at your local Big Box pet store contemplating throwing caution-tothe-wind and exclaiming, “C’mon, just how bad can it be?” — please turn the package around and read VERY carefully the warning label. Those ingredients are designed to destroy the nervous systems of living organisms, whether it be flea, canine, feline or human. Pesticides aren’t designed to be specific, they are designed to kill.

Begun in 1998 with a multi-million dollar gift by an anonymous Beaufortarea family, the Fund has awarded more than $5 million in grants to non-profit organizations. Grants are generally directed to provide support in six program areas: Arts, Education, Environment, Health, Human Needs, and Neighborhood/ Community Development. However, grant requests up to $15,000 will be accepted from any non-profit organization, as long as its work benefits citizens in the four-county area served by the Fund. Decisions about grants from the Beaufort Fund will be made by the Foundation with recommendations from an Advisory Committee of four-county area residents. The deadline for applying is Friday, August 16; all materials may be emailed or hand-delivered by 5:00 p.m. on August 16 or if sent by U.S. mail, must be postmarked on or before August 15. Computer-friendly applications are available at: http://www. coastalcommunityfoundation.org/ nonprofits/grants.html Charitable organizations may also request an application by phone at (843) 379-3400, or by e-mail at Edna@ CoastalCommunityFoundation.org.

Happy rail trails At a ground breaking ceremony on Thursday, Sept. 13, a crowd of local officials, community leaders and bicycle enthusiasts gathered at the site of the old Depot Building off Depot Road in Beaufort to commemorate the start of construction on the Spanish Moss Trail. As Beaufort Mayor Billy Keyserling noted, making the trail a reality was the result of public and private groups working together for a cause that will promote healthy activity and benefit the community. Weston Newton also praised the trail as a way to showcase the beauty of our natural resources. The first section is scheduled to be complete by Thanksgiving.
