FUN IN THE SUN Sand-sculpting contest benefits sea turtles By Bob Sofaly
More than a dozen families from Bluffton to Beaufort teamed up during the eighth annual Friends of Hunting Island Sand Sculpture contest held Saturday, June 18, at Hunting Island State Park. During the past seven years the contest was just something fun to do. But this year, according to Carol Corbin, “The Friends” decided to turn it into a fundraiser to help raise money for the Sea Turtle Conservation Project. The event, sponsored by The Friends of Hunting Island “has always been free,” she said, “but this year we had food, face painting, music and a silent auction to help raise money.” But the main attractions were the sand sculptures. And playing in the sand was nothing new to Michael O’Riordan, of Bluffton, as he explained to his family how he wanted four tall towers interconnected with a wall forming a nest for a mother and

Arrest takes wild U-turn into river What started as a simple shoplifting arrest took several weird twists and turns, ending up in the Beaufort River and resulting in injuries to two law enforcement officers. It all started when Aridegbe Adeyemi, 37, of St. Helena Island Aridegbe was arrested June Adeyemi 19 by the Port Royal Police Department after allegedly shoplifting at the Citgo gas station on Ribaut Road, according to a Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office report. Following his arrest and while on the way to the Beaufort County Detention Center, Adeyemi appeared to become unconscious. The Port Royal officer, Sgt. Kevin Heany, immediately drove to Beaufort Memorial Hospital to get the suspect medical attention. When they got to the hospital, Heany went to get a stretcher, and while he was gone, Adeyemi got up, ran toward the back of the hospital complex and into the Beaufort River, the report said. Heany ran after him, and when he caught up, they struggled while Sheriff 's Office Emergency Dispatch summoned back-up units in the area to help. A Sheriff 's Office Marine Patrol Unit, which was nearby in its boat, immediately responded to assist Heany. They arrived within minutes and saw Heany and Adeyemi struggling in a few feet of water, the report states. One of the two marine patrol unit deputies jumped out of the boat to assist Heany as Adeyemi “continued to struggle and was trying to get into deeper water to avoid be recaptured,” according to the report. The struggle ended up in an oyster bed, where Heany and a marine patrol unit deputy were cut multiple times by the sharp oyster shells. “Although he was still attempting to struggle, they were able to bring See ARREST, page A5

Sheriff warning: Woman scammed out of $1,700
The Beaufort County Sheriff 's Office has received several reports in the past few days in north and south Beaufort County regarding scammers impersonating law enforcement officers. In one recent incident, a man called woman on her cell phone and said he was with the Beaufort County Sheriff 's Office. He told her that she had been sent a subpoena for jury duty and she had failed to appear. He said two warrants had been issued for her arrest for "failure to appear" and "contempt of court" and in order to avoid being arrested she would have to pay the fines associated with the warrants immediately, according to the sheriff ’s department. She was then told to go to Kroger on Hilton Head Island, purchase a Green Dot card, which is a prepaid cash card, and to stay on the telephone with him throughout the transaction. She was then directed by the scammer to scratch off the number on the back of the Green Dot card and provide it to him over the phone. The scammer then told her the arrest warrants would be recalled and she would receive an e-mail confirming receipt of payment. The confirmation e-mail never came and the victim realized she had just been scammed for over $1,700. This scam and variations have been reported in both north and south Beaufort County. The sheriff 's office recommends citizens hang up when receiving this type of call and under no circumstances should personal or financial information be revealed.
No member of the Beaufort County Sheriff 's Office will ever ask a citizen for payment of a fine over the telephone or otherwise in lieu of being arrested.
Woman charged with strong arm robbery
A 32-year-old woman has been arrested and charged with strong arm robbery. According to a Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office report, deputies responded to a home at the Lakes at Edgewater in Bluffton where a man said a woman whom he didn’t know knocked on his apartment door and asked for a glass of water. Because of the heat outside, he turned to get the water when she snuck up behind him and took his wallet from his back pocket, the report states. The victim struggled with the woman and she punched him in the chest, took the money from his wallet, then ran and jumped in a white Dodge Ram pickup truck with two men inside, the report states. A deputy spotted the truck on U.S. 278 going onto Hilton Head Island. The deputy following the pickup truck onto Spanish Wells Road and pulled it over. The woman, identified as Amber Simmons, was positively identified by the male victim, who was driven to the location of the traffic stop by sheriff 's office deputies, according to the report. It was determined through the investigation that the male driver and other male occupant were not involved in the burglary/robbery incident. However, the male driver, of Dale, was driving under suspension. He was arrested and taken to the Amber Beaufort County DetenSimmons tion Center for the driving offense. The other occupant was released. According to the report, Simmons had the cash hidden in her bra and threw it at the investigators during an interview at the Hilton Head substation. She has been charged with second-degree burglary and strong arm robbery. She was also charged with simple possession of marijuana. Simmons is being held at the Beaufort County Detention Center.
Attempted murder suspect arrested
The Beaufort Police have arrested a suspect in a recent shooting on Hogarth Street. On June 10, officers responded to the scene and found a victim with a gunshot wound to the neck. According to a police report, the victim and Isaiah Gadson Jr., 62, had gotten into a verbal fight in the parking lot of the Exxon at the corner of Boundary and Hogarth streets. The argument moved into the roadway of Hogarth Street, where the victim was shot one time. The victim and subject are acquaintances and the victim was able to identify the subject to police, the report states. The victim was transported to Beaufort Memorial Hospital and the injury appeared to be non-life threatening. Gadson turned himself in to the Beaufort Police Department, where he was arrested. He is being charged with attempted murder.

Understanding stock market indexes is key for investors No doubt you've seen headlines reporting that a particular stock index is up or down. But do you know what an index is, and how understanding the nuts and bolts of a specific index may be helpful to you? An index is simply a way to measure and report the fluctuations of a pool of securities or a representative segment of a market. An index is developed by a company that sets specific criteria to determine which securities are included in the index based on factors such as a company's size or location, or the liquidity of its stock. For example, the S&P 500 is an index made up of mostly large-cap U.S.-based companies that Standard & Poor's considers to be leading representatives of a cross-section of industries. The company that develops the index tracks the performance of its components and aggregates the data to produce a single figure that represents the index as a whole. Virtually every asset class is tracked by at least one index, but because of the size and variety of the stock market, there are more stock indexes than any other type. It's important to note that the performance of an unmanaged index is not indicative of the performance of any specific security. Individuals cannot invest directly in an index. Comparing apples to oranges Since indexes encompass a wide range of securities, it's important to know what segment of the market a particular index covers. For instance, a composite index follows a specific stock exchange. The Nasdaq Composite Index includes all the stocks listed on the Nasdaq market. Conversely, sector indexes track securities in a specific industry. Even indexes that include the same securities may not operate in precisely the same way. Generally, indexes tend to be either price-weighted or market capitalization-weighted. If an index is price-weighted, such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the impact of each stock on the overall average is proportional to its price compared to other stocks in the index. With a price-weighted index, the highest-priced stocks would have the most
impact on the average. For example, a 1-percentage point drop in the price of a stock selling for $80 per share would have more impact on the overall Charles Tumlin index's performance than a 1-percentage point drop in the price of a stock that had been selling for $40 a share. If an index is market capitalization-weighted or market value-weighted, such as the Nasdaq Composite Index or the S&P 500 Composite Index, the average of the index is adjusted to take into account the relative size of each company (its market cap) to reflect its importance to the index. Stocks with a larger market capitalization have a greater influence on how the index performs than stocks with a smaller market capitalization. For example, if the stock of a $10 billion market-cap company drops by 1 percentage point, it will drag down the index's performance more than a 1 percentage point drop in the share price of a $1 billion market-cap company. Though an index adheres to a set of guidelines for selection of the securities it includes, the company that oversees the index generally reviews the security selection periodically and may make occasional changes. For example, some indexes may rebalance if an individual security grows so large that it dominates the index. Others have a limit on how much of the index can be devoted to a particular sector or industry, and may rebalance if the proportion gets skewed. Indexes are worth watching Stock indexes can provide valuable information for the individual investor. If checked regularly, an index can provide information that may help you stay abreast of how the stock market in general, or a particular segment of it, is faring. However, understanding the differences between indexes and how each one works will help you make better use of the information they provide.

O’Riordan’s wife, Kathy, said, “Mike always comes here and plays in the sand,” as her husband filled interlocking buckets with their bottoms cut out to help form sand into towers. “This is what he wanted to for Father’s Day, so here we are.” The Frederick family, of Beaufort — all four generations of them — were busy piling sand and pouring water over the mound that would later be sculpted into the “Charlotte Dragon.” Three-year-old Charlotte Maffett helped her grandparents, Michael and Jane Frederick, pat down the sand and haul water.

Adeyemi was released from the hospital a short time later and was transported to the Detention Center, where he is currently being held. He is charged with shoplifting, fleeing to evade arrest and resisting arrest. He was also served with the five outstanding bench warrants. The Sheriff 's Office Ma-

VOICES LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Sheriff: Thanks for your help during storm
On Friday, June 17, Beaufort County was pounded by another storm. The Beaufort County Dispatch Center received over a thousand calls for service within just a couple of hours for fallen trees, electrical wires down, alarms, etc. In fact, there were so many calls that the Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office evening patrol shift was called in early to help respond due to the high call volume. Other area agencies like Beaufort Police Department, Beaufort County Public Works, SCDOT and SCE&G were also working just as diligently, but calls were backing up quickly. BCSO patrol units were responding to many fallen trees and were working to move them as quickly as possible. One tree fell in the area of Meridian Road on Lady’s Island and while deputies worked to remove it, some citizens stopped to help to give them a hand. There were also three trees blocking various points along Land’s End Road on St Helena that needed to be cleared and a local businessman, Glen F. Inabinett Trucking, stepped up to help and used his dump truck and chains to assist BCSO deputies for over an hour to move those trees. These citizens were not the only members of our community to help. There were numerous instances throughout Beaufort County where citizens stopped to help deputies by removing tree limbs and other debris from the roadways. These actions did not go un-noticed and were truly appreciated by BCSO and we would like to say “THANK YOU” to all who helped us. Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office

Planning commission continues code study
The City of Beaufort’s Planning Department is in the process of refining and finalizing the draft of the Beaufort Code to be reviewed by the Beaufort City Council. As part of that process, we held sessions with the Metropolitan Planning Commission, which will make a recommendation to council prior to it reviewing the code. During that time, we received a number of public comments that we intend to address in more detail. The city is committed to preparing a code that had been fully vetted by the public and local stakeholders. That is not to say that everyone will agree on everything; however it did not seem prudent to continue on the MPC recommendation process until these additional requested meetings were held. So for now, we will not continue Planning Commission review of the code until we have a meeting with the Hermitage Road/ Hundred Pines neighborhood, and perhaps other similar neighborhoods with a proposed T3-S zoning. We might be ready to continue a formal review with the Planning Commission in July; a new schedule is forthcoming and will be published on our website. There is a simple comment form online (www.cityofbeaufort.org/beaufort-code. aspx) to give us your comments. City of Beaufort Planning Department

Women Marines simply don’t measure up to men This battle will probably not be fit in beside “the halls of Montezuma” and “the shores of Tripoli” in the Marine Corps Hymn, but it is another legend in the remarkable history of the United States Marine Corps. From the onset of his presidency, President Obama has called for all units in the U.S. military — including training, the infantry and special forces — to be gender-neutral, which in the contemporary lexicon means not just men and women, but transsexuals too. The White House has passed that word down in no uncertain terms through its secretaries of defense. In 2013, Secretary Leon Panetta ended the restriction that prevented women from filling nearly 200,000 combat military jobs, and called for a quota of women in the military. But that was nothing compared to the present secretary, Ash Carter, who is clearing the way for transgender troops. But seven-and-a-half years into his eightyear presidency, in spite of the commander in chief ’s ideologically-based commitment, the training of Marines is not yet integrated, nor are the Marine Corps’ combat forces. Legendarily successful fighters on the plains of war to be sure, the Marines are an equally tough and legendary adversary in the

Seeking to grapple with how to implement the women-in-the-infantry order, the Marine Corps ordered a “Ground Combat Element Integrated Task Force” study that was conducted from July 2014 to July 2015. The study tracked all-male units and co-ed units doing what a Marine Corps infantry battalion reinforced by a battalion landing team might be expected to do in combat situations. To the great disappointment of the White House, the study found that carrying the heavy packs that Marines in combat situations must carry caused the women in the study to suffer more occupational injuries than the men; that the co-ed units accomplished their tasks more slowly as a result of “moving under load”; and in what is most central to their mission, the coed units were less able to “achieve timely effects

Having no knowledge of our misfortune or lack of primary-colored plastic fun-makers, our surroundings became our game board and siblings our tribe. Blissfully ignorant of our simple upbringing, our days were full of magnificent, untainted adventure. Facing the grandest of threats emerging in the Mississippi sun without lathering our freckled skin in sun-blocking salve, somehow we mustered the courage to brave Mother Natures matrix of mayhem. The fields were our summer school and the trees our playground. Even at the young age of 7, I knew to prepare a first-aid kit before venturing into the wild blue yonder. The necessities were carefully considered and organized methodically in our trusted hand-painted coffee cans. Life-saving tools were needed, such as rusted fishing hooks, soon-to-sour mayonnaise slathered atop a tomato sandwich, blood-stopping, limb-saving duct tape and lastly, life-saving firecrackers, especially the kind that were clearly labeled dangerous. Occasionally we would take extra precaution and grab one of Daddy's pocket knives. Girls will be girls, I suppose. Each day began just after the sun made her appearance and ended with porch lights signaling the threat of missing dinner. No scheduled play dates, no lessons in Mandarin or cultivating discussion on art. Our deficiency became our greatest blessing. Our dirty feet, briar-chastised hands and thorn-laden hair wandered throughout the

woods fighting dragons, slaying demons and building fortresses amongst the pines. There wasn't much talk of princess gowns or being rescued. There was epic battles waged as we learned to win, to lose and to get along. Creatures were captured, healed and brought home; some went willingly while others taught us the complexity of cause and effect. Jeans were ripped, shirts were stained and character was sewn into each of us carefully covering all scrapes and bruises. As storms rolled in, cues were given and respected. When Momma honked the old truck horn, somebody's bottom was about to meet a certain displeasure. Girls will be girls, I suppose. We had no idea we were supposed to behave. We had no idea how we were supposed to behave. We were too busy living, learning and learning to let live. We became capable by being country and confident by not being confined. Not all little girls crave the adventures of the great outdoors, but not all crave the sweetly decorated indoors either. Now, raising a dragon slayer of my very own, I hope I am able to let her seek out adventure, run through a few briars and wage battles atop river banks. The world has changed, but childhood remains. My porch light will shine and my dirt-familiar feet will run after her if needed. One thing I know for sure is girls will be girls, when they are given the opportunity.
on target” than their all-male counterparts. An example of a task that women Marines accomplished more slowly than their male counterparts was the dragging to safety of a wounded and incapacitated 200pound Marine. Nonetheless, the results of the study were attacked by Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus — on orders from a relentless White House no doubt — and the results of the study have been ordered reviewed. That review is due in by the end of this month. On the co-ed boot camp front, on Jan. 1 Malbus ordered the Marine Corps to develop a plan for making the Marine Corps’ boot camp co-educational. No women are trained at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego. All are trained at Parris Island. The order would have made both facilities co-ed. In the immediate aftermath of his having received Malbus’ order, Marine Corps Commandant Gen. Robert Neller invited the secretary to Parris Island so that he could see firsthand how men and women were being trained there. The meeting occurred in mid-January, and people familiar with how it went say that the secretary had his mind changed when he saw the contrast between how the men handled
the pugil sticks and how their female counterparts did so. It is easy to imagine, those familiar with the exercise say, male recruits in the exercise injuring female recruits, and that while helmets are worn in the training, it would take a lot more than helmets to prevent such injuries. Pugil stick training is the equivalent of bayonet training, where instead of bayonets a padded stick is used. After visiting Parris Island, the secretary rescinded his order saying, “The way it’s done now sets both men and women up for greater success.” But those who believe integrated training at the Marine Corps has been put to rest would be mistaken. They should be reminded that the secretary also said, “It made sense to me to do it in a more deliberate way.” Time will tell what exactly that means. But time is running out for the Obama Administration. Meanwhile, on requiring that combat units become integrated, the commandant has developed a merit-based approach that is based on the premise that the Marines will — blind to sexual identity — produce the most “combat-effective force by capitalizing on the knowledge, skills, abilities, demonstrated performance and full potential of every Marine.”

HIGHLIGHTING DAILY LIFE OBSERVATIONS
Lee Scott, a writer and recent retiree, shares her everyday observations about life after career. A former commercial banker responsible for helping her clients to reach their business objectives, Scott now translates those analytical skills to her writings. She recently moved to St. Helena Island with her husband and two cocker spaniels. She enjoys boating, traveling and reading.
Somewhere in the deep sea is a mermaid with a beautiful hat collection. I know because her hats are the ones that I have lost through the years while riding on boats. Most of them are baseball caps, but there are others too. There have been straw hats, woolen hats, floppy beach hats and also some visors. These hats were not given to the mermaid on purpose. They just seem to take off when I am out on the water. I have used straps and catches and all kinds of clasps to try to keep the hats connected to me. I even tried using those little mitten clips that mothers use to connect their child’s winter mittens to the coat. But any mother who has greeted a gloveless child at the door will
tell you that even those are not fool-proof. My spouse has turned our little center console boat around numerous times as I scream, “Hat overboard!” It’s then that I have to leap for my boat hook in an attempt to sweep up my sinking hat. But I swear, there are dolphins swimming around just waiting to scoop up my latest contribution and deliver it to the new owner. Nine times out of 10, the hat is just gone. There was one yellow Pier One hat that I had for years. I tried not to wear it on the boat so I would not lose it. But even that one took off one day just as I was reaching into the cooler to grab a bottle of water. A puff of wind snatched it off
my head and it was gone. There was also a beautiful straw sunhat I wore one day when my spouse said we were just going on a leisurely ride and would not be going fast. It wasn’t his fault that a couple of jet-skiers went flying by, pushing up some waves and me. You guessed it. Bye-bye cute sunhat! But I think I have discovered a solution for my hat problem. It came to me when I retrieved my two dogs from the groomer. They had cute little scarves tied around their necks that looked like babushkas (short headscarves). So if my spouse will stop laughing at me, I think I might be wearing one the next time we go out boating. Sorry Little Mermaid.

Celebrating
Beaufort Memorial
Keyserling Cancer Center Celebrates 10 Years of
OUR PROVIDERS
Caring for the Community On a sunny afternoon in 2006 hundreds of people gathered in Port Royal, South Carolina, to celebrate the grand opening of the area’s first cancer center, a place where patients could be treated in the comfort of their community, and in the company of caring physicians and staff. Our center was named in honor of longtime Beaufort Memorial Hospital physician and community member B. Herbert Keyserling, M.D., and supported by generous donors throughout the area, and its opening marked both an end and a beginning: the end of traveling great distances to receive life-saving cancer care and the beginning of comprehensive cancer services close to home. Beaufort Memorial’s affiliation with MUSC Health expands that care by providing local access to cancer clinical trials through one of the country’s elite, NCI-designated cancer centers —just one more demonstration of our commitment to helping our community live well.

Special baskets are made by very special people By Aileen Goldstein A gift basket is not always just a gift basket. A gift basket from Aunt Laurie’s is much more. Laurie Brown, a petite woman with short blond hair and huge passion, calls her baskets special gifts made by very special people. Brown’s baskets include items that are either locally made or created by individuals with disabilities and oftentimes both. The sturdy baskets themselves are made by hand by disabled clients at the South Carolina Vocation Rehab Center in Beaufort. Once the weaving is complete, those same clients fill, wrap, package and ship the baskets to lucky recipients. Customers are able to customize baskets with anything from candles to dog biscuits to coffee to brittle. Brown has a long list of available items. There are ceramic dog bowls painted by clients of Programs for Exceptional People, a Hilton Head center that employs people with intellectual disabilities. Some of the candles and body care items are made by an organization called Extraordinary Ventures, employing adults with autism. Brown donates a percentage of her profits to other organizations, including Leader Dogs for the Blind. Brown is passionate about helping people with disabilities and believes in “inspiring others to acknowledge human value in everyone.” “Everyone has different capabilities,” she said. Brown spent nearly 30 years deep in the automotive industry and realized one day the work was not fulfilling her. She is only a year and a half into her new direction in life and is already surpassing her own goals. Among her accomplishments is winning the 2016

Golden Oyster award from the Hilton Head-Bluffton Chamber of Commerce for Best Start Up of the Year.

Meanwhile, she serves on the boards of Action for Autism and the Palmet-

Students design logo for Gullah Farmers Cooperative By Marie D. Lewis Three fifth-grade art students at St. Helena Elementary School were recently awarded certificates and cash prizes for their participation in designing a logo for the Gullah Farmer’s Cooperative (GFC) Association. Under the direction of art teacher Michelle Thomas, the students competed in an art contest to help the Gullah Farmers Coop create a logo for their organization. More than 20 students participated and there were eight semi-finalists: Myniya Charles, Jamarion James, Jamar Knight, Lamar Knight, Asia Robinson, Jarell Seabrook-Fripp, Renesha Simmons and De’Ziyah Smalls. The final winners were selected by GFC members. They were Jamar Knight, first place; Myniya Charles, second place; and Asia Robinson, third place. The finalists were recognized during the annual school awards ceremony and certificates and cash awards were presented by GFC president, Joseph McDomick. The Gullah Farmer’s Cooperative Association consists of a small group of local farmers from the Lowcountry area. The mission and purpose of the organization is to create and provide significant food markets for the crops of local farmers.
From top: The winners of the Gullah Farmers Cooperative logo contest are Jamar Knight, first place; Myniya Charles, second place; and Asia Robinson, third place; The first-place logo for the Gullah Farmers Cooperative is shown here.
“Our goal is to market seasonal crops such as collards and broccoli to the Eastern and Southeastern United States in large bulk shipments,” said McDomick. “Our vision includes decreasing the pressure on land development in this area by making farming more economically feasible.” The GFC organization also emphasized the concern for the health of local citizens and the preservation of local farming, which has been so important to the history of the Lowcountry.
