Chamber’s Civitas Awards honor Beaufort’s finest

The Castle, located at 411 Craven Street, is rumored to be haunted by a 16th century French jester. Photos by Ryan Copeland.

The haunted house back to the very beginning of the Civil War. It’s nothing new for the Russells, former owners of an historic home in Cooperstown, N.Y., that they also opened to mass trick-or-treaters each Halloween. Perhaps even it’s the daunting feel of The Castle that not only gives the historic home its notoriety, but also

From staff reports More than 175 Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce and community members gathered Thursday, Oct. 14 on the lawn at the Coosaw River Club for the Chamber’s annual Civitas Awards, where the individuals and businesses that make Beaufort special were honored. This year’s winners include: • Torchbearer Award for overall economic impact – Beaufort Memorial Hospital “We are honored to be recognized for our economic impact on our region,” BMH president and CEO Russell Baxley, MHA, said. “With more than 1,600 team members throughout Beaufort, Jasper and Hampton counties, we truly are an organization that both depends on and supports the many people who live and work here. We’re proud to be a part of this great community.” • Trailblazer Award for innovation, investment and free enterprise – GlassWRX SC

Famous Beaufort residence The Castle, long rumored to be haunted, open for Halloween night

By Ryan Copeland Southern tours, even the kind taken by car with the intent of prospecting a good retirement option, generally involve stopping at roadside markets and charming bed and breakfasts and trying to decide whether or not to pull at the Spanish moss. What they don’t always include is purchasing a community’s signature historic home, but it’s what David and Nancy Russell did back in May when they became the new owners of the

Joseph Johnson house, better known in Beaufort as The Castle. On October 31, you’ll get your chance to trick-or-treat with the Russells in their new home. “One of the first things someone said to us was ‘you know you have to open the house at Halloween!’” David Russell said. “We’ll be looking to stay consistent with the past.” The past, of course, is never truly gone in a place like Beaufort, and especially not in a house with parapets and a moat dating

All signs point to Cook Out coming to Beaufort

By Mike McCombs If you’ve been hungry for another fast food option in Beaufort, you could be in luck. All signs point to Cook Out coming to Robert Smalls Parkway. Two parcels totaling 1.881 acres at 122 Robert Smalls Parkway – the site of the now-closed Golden Corral steakhouse – were sold Jan. 8, 2021 by Beaufort Asset Management, LLC to Cook Out-Beaufort, Inc., “A South Carolina Corporation” for $1.34 million. The address for Cook Out-Beaufort, Inc., is the same as Cook Out’s corporate offices – 15 Laura Lane

Suite 300, Thomasville, N.C. 27360. On a loan document related to the sale, Cook Out Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Jeremy Reaves signed the document as President of Cook Out-Beaufort, Inc. When reached by phone, a Cook Out official said that any questions regarding the company’s acquisition of land would have to be directed to Reaves.

As of Tuesday night, Reaves had not responded to an email from The Island News. Morris Reaves opened the first Cook Out location in 1989 in Greensboro, N.C. Morris Reaves owns the company, while his son, Jeremy Reaves, serves as the CEO. While the first 50 locations were all in North Carolina, there are now nearly 300 locations operating in 10 states. The closest locations to Beaufort are Walterboro and Hilton Head Island (101 Central Avenue).

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Lee Scott: Gone but not forgotten

A year ago this month The Island News lost its award-winning humor writer Lee Scott. She even wrote her own obituary for the paper. At the time of her passing I sent a letter to the paper explaining my friendship with Lee. Before Lee passed away she asked Christine, Cindy and I to continue to celebrate her birthday on November 14. The four of us always celebrated our birthdays together. As promised, we went out to lunch on her birthday. The waitress came over with a bottle of wine and said this is from Lee Scott. We looked at each other and thought that Lee’s daughter had arranged for this bottle of wine. We were informed that Lee herself had ordered the bottle. As we told the waitress the story with the four of us always sharing birthdays, many tears were shed for our dear friend. During lunch we shared many of our great times had with Lee.

A friend of mine gave me a “friendship quote for the day” book by Helen Exley. I found the perfect quote that describes my friendship with Lee. “Friends are together when they are separated, they are rich when they are poor, strong when they are weak, and a thing even harder to explain, they live on after they have died.” Traditions don’t end easily, so rest assured on November 14 that Christine, Cindy and I will have our birthday lunch in honor of our dear friend Lee Scott. – Nancy O’Connor, St. Helena Island

Web Design whom you elect, how much you pay. Guess what, the Referendum on the Ballot will steal your vote and voice. Do you want that? If you do, just hand them your wallet. I’d like to keep mine. Yes, County Council wants to stop you for voting for the County Treasurer and Auditor. You will lose two votes and your voices. What does that mean? County Council will have unrestricted ability to determine your taxes! That is TYRANNY and THEFT of your money. They will do it behind closed doors and lie to you. Now, They are not done yet! There is another Referendum. They want your wallet! They want to raise the Sales Tax, but, wait, in the next five minutes, they will lower your property taxes, as if. Here’s the kicker, it doesn’t give any relief to you if you rent. Yes, you pay the landlord’s property tax every month. There is no trigger to help you. Will you vote for that? Worse yet, it hits EVERYTHING you buy. A loaf of bread, a quart of milk? Yes, basic food, car registration, and boats. You go

to the store, drop your kid to day care, get your hair cut, any pays Business Property Taxes. You pay those taxes every time you enter the store, and on and on. Everything. Businesses only remit, what they collect from you. For what? A Landlord gets a rebate? A few hundred dollars at our expense of thousands of dollars a year? Really? How does that help you? Oh, but the tourist will pay the most. Did anyone tell them the pandemic has kept most tourists away? Where’s the windfall? Final question, did you know, at the height of the pandemic, County Council voted themselves a raise, while you were losing your job or getting laid off? Talk about tone deaf to YOUR needs!

NEWS LOWCOUNTRY LOWDOWN

Pair of significant issues on ballot for Nov. 2

BEAUFORT here’s a lot going on here in the Lowcountry as fall graces us with some tolerable weather and fall festivals are flourishing. But DON’T FORGET: there’s a county-wide vote Nov. 2 on two issues – a local option sales tax and a slight restructuring of county government structure, specifically, the treasurer and auditor’s office. Just to beat the drum a little longer, a few information bites about the L.O.S.T. which would be added to the six percent sales tax: • The S.C. Department of Revenue projects the one percent local sales tax will raise approximately $49 million for the county. • If passed by the voters, the local sales tax collection will begin May 1 and continue until voters

LOLITA HUCKABY

decide to repeal it. • 71 percent of the money to be collected would return to residents in property tax credits. The question was on the ballot in 1990 and 1991 but was rejected by voters. In 2006, voters did support a one percent transportation sales tax with a six-year time limit. And if you want to know what the sales tax could mean to you, financially, the county provides a detailed explanation of the sales

tax proposal and what it will mean to the individual property owner: https://www. beaufortcountysc.gov/topics/local-option-sales-tax/ index.html. There’s also that question about restructuring the county management team, in terms of making the treasurer and auditor – both currently elected positions – hires of the county administrator. And yes, early voting is allowed if you plan to be away from home on that date. DRB doesn’t give developers what they want BEAUFORT – It’s the city’s Historic Review Board which usually catches the public’s ire but more recently, the Design Review Board made the news by sidelining not only one but two projects deemed not suitable as proposed. The DRB put the skids last

week on plans for WaterCrest apartments, a 504-unit development behind the Walmart Supercenter on S.C. 170. The members present felt the design for 21 three-story buildings was just too massive, especially for a wooded area that’s reportedly a popular camping place for homeless people. Representatives of Logan Homes, developers of the property, said the proposed rents would run around $1,500 to $2,000. City staff, as no surprise, told the board it met city code and recommended approval with 12 conditions. Although the 38-acre tract owned by the John Gray family is adjacent to Walmart and other amenities located in the Cross Creek Shopping Center such as a nail salon, Pet Smart and the new Big Lots, DRB members were

Beaufort man pleads guilty to armed robbery, sentenced

From staff reports A 23-year-old Beaufort man who robbed a gas station while armed and masked is headed to prison. Jordan Tyrese Jahlil Burgess of Ambrose Run pleaded guilty Monday to armed robbery and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. His jury trial was scheduled to begin later in the morning. Burgess was sentenced to 12 years in prison. He re-

ceived 12 years for the robbery charge and five years for the weapons charge. Each Burgess charge will be served concurrently. “There is no explanation for why Mr. Burgess’s DNA would be on the cash register till,” said Assistant Solicitor Jared Shedd, who prosecuted the case. “The

single-source DNA profile, combined with the fact that he never worked at this gas station, along with the surveillance video made it clear who was responsible for this crime.” Just before 10:30 p.m., Jan. 15, 2019, Port Royal Police received a report of a suspicious person behind the gas station at 1451 Ribaut Road. Moments later, police received a call about an armed robbery.

Surveillance shows Burgess – wearing a gaiter-style face cover but no hat or gloves — pulling out a revolver, and demanding money. In the video, Burgess grabs the till from the clerk and snags $177. He then demands the store’s cordless phone and the clerk’s personal cell phone before leaving the gas station. The clerk then grabs her purse, locks the store’s door, and runs across the street to Hardee’s for help.

concerned about walkability since the property is bordered by the thoroughfares of Parris Island Gateway and Broad River Boulevard. Also unusual was the fact that the project drew two letters of opposition prior to the board review, one from the Coastal Conservation League and the other from the city’s former planning director. AND, also unusual, Mayor Stephen Murray came to the meeting and said he didn’t think the project complied with the city code. While the DRB chairman proposed a flat-out rejection of the conceptual design, his two colleagues actually only deferred action on the application. The board also turned down a request for final approval from developers of a storage facility on the corner of Boundary Street and Parris

Island Gateway. The Savannah-based development company was given, instead, preliminary approval with conditions to tweak their design. The board did give final approval to Enmarket, a new convenience store at 1200 Ribaut Road, on the corner of First Boulevard where a closed Shell station stands. P.S. If you’re a resident of Beaufort and interested in helping craft the future look of the city, you, too can be part of the DRB action. The city’s looking for two more volunteers to serve on the board.

Beaufort lifts mask mandate in City buildings From staff reports As of Monday, Oct. 18, masks are no longer be required inside City of Beaufort buildings, with the exception of Municipal Court. Municipal Court must follow the policy set forth by Chief Justice Donald Beaty of the South Carolina Supreme Court. He requires that anyone in courtrooms in the state wear

a mask. City Manager Bill Prokop said the city is encouraged by the decline in Covid cases in Beaufort County, and the increase in vaccination numbers. According to the SCDHEC vaccination dashboard, almost 60 percent of eligible Beaufort County residents are fully vaccinated and 70 percent have received at least one vaccination.

Friends of Beaufort Library Fall Book Sale returns This year’s bookstravaganza includes new Meet the Authors program

From staff reports The Friends of the Beaufort Library (FOL) has announced the return of the annual Fall Book Sale November 5-7. Because of the pandemic, the 2020 sale was canceled, so this year’s sale promises to be bigger and better than ever. The event kicks off to the public from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 5, after a 9 to 11 a.m. special members-only preview sale. Those wishing to join the FOL to attend the preview sale can do so at the gate for $25. The sale resumes from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday, and concludes from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday. All items on Sunday will be priced at 50 percent off. “We have a wide range of book genres, something for everyone, including hundreds of rare and collectible items,” Book Sale Co-Chair Deb Chevas said in a release. Serving with Chevas as the other two event Co-Chairs are Amy Ferreira and Kathy Cooper.

“This is our biggest fundraiser of the year,” Friends’ President Carter Hoyt said. “This one weekend event allows us to provide tens of thousands of dollars to support the Beaufort, St. Helena, and Lobeco branches — so, please come see us and take home a big bag of books!” The 2021 event has something new: The Meet the Authors Program. Throughout the 3-day sale, local authors will be on hand to meet the public, sign and sell their books, and answer questions. The final author schedule will be available soon but be assured there will be plenty of surprises in store! In addition to the sale, the Friends’ other annual marquee event is the Books Sandwiched In (BSI) lecture series held at USC Beaufort Center for the Arts and online.

OCTOBER 21–27, 2021

From staff reports The Burton Fire District has completed a four-year lifesaving project with the installation of the JACOB Kit program at Battery Creek High School. After the 2016 death of Jacob Hall in a school shooting in Townville, S.C., a teacher asked a Burton Firefighter/Paramedic about what she could have done if Jacob Hall had been her student, and that question gave birth to the JACOB Kit program a year later. Over the next four years, the Burton Fire District was able to raise more than $20,000 in local grants and donations to place more than 400 Stop the Bleed kits in every classroom, in every school, that the Burton Fire District responds to. In addition to placing the kits in the schools, all teachers are trained annually on how to use the kits to treat critical injuries until professional responders arrive.

Firefighters state that an adult can bleed to death in 10 minutes, a child in half that time, so teachers having the resources and training to stop any bleeding immediately will save lives. Burton fire officials state that should an incident occur at a school, while Burton EMTs and paramedics will be the first professional responders to arrive, it’s the teachers who will be the true first responders for their students and coworkers. The program is named after Jacob, who survived the initial wound but died three days later due to “massive blood loss.” Jacob’s mother gave Burton permission to create the program in her son’s name, and stated that she once told Jacob, who wanted to be a superhero so he could help people, “One day baby, everyone will know your name.” Burton firefighters say they are trying to honor Jacob’s dream and

his mother’s prediction with every kit they install. In 2019, the Burton Fire District and Beaufort County School District was presented the Firehouse Magazine’s Thomas Carr Community Service award for their partnership in this program. The

award is named after Charleston, SC., fire chief Thomas Carr, who help transform the Charleston Fire Department after the devastating 2007 fire that killed nine Charleston firefighters, into a department of community involvement and engagement.

Decal program full implementation begins Nov. 1 From staff reports Beginning Monday, November 1, all Beaufort County Convenience Centers will require any County resident meeting the requirements, to show their decal. Since its soft implementation in March, the Decal Program has saved residents nearly $400,000. "The decal program has done what it was designed to do: stop illegal dumping by contractors and restrict

citizens from outside the County from utilizing County services," Beaufort County Solid Waste and Recycling Director Cindy Carter said in a release. Almost 52,000 properties have registered for the new Convenience Center decal system, which began in October 2020. Citizens using the recycling bins at the Bluffton location (104 Simmonsville Rd) and Beaufort's Shanklin location (80 Shanklin Rd) do

not need a decal. Residents without decals will be turned away by Convenience Center staff. "Many have found the program to be easy and efficient. You can sign up online, and you are issued a sticker decal and a digital decal that can be used on your phone or printed," Carter said. "Our team has been working tirelessly to help citizens that are having trouble registering and did

specific outreach to heirs property owners." If you applied for a decal and have not received it, there is a problem with the information received on the original application. For inquiries about the status of your decal application, visit https://bit.ly/3vqY9Zz or call 843-255-2930. If you have not applied for a decal, please submit your information at https://bit. ly/2ZepDpn.

PAL to host virtual adoption event with fees waived Oct. 22

From staff reports Palmetto Animal League will host the “PAL at Your Pad” Virtual Adoption Event on Friday, Oct. 22, featuring adoptable cats and dogs throughout the day, including live introductions and Q&A at 11:30 a.m. via Facebook Live. “PAL’s virtual adoption event was so popular last year, and thanks to the support of AutoNation Subaru Hilton Head, we were able to bring it back,” PAL President Amy Campanini said in a release. “It’s convenient for potential adopters whether they’re at home or at work. It’s also great for the pets because more people can view them, increasing their chances of getting adopted!”

AutoNation Subaru Hilton Head will donate $100 to PAL for every pet adopted in October. PAL will be offering fee-waived adoptions

Oct. 22-27 made possible through a generous grant from the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA).

“PAL is a private, non-profit, no kill rescue organization,” explains Campanini. “When you adopt from PAL, you are saving two lives by opening space at our adoption center for another animal waiting for rescue.” Those interested can view PAL’s adoptable pets on their website at PalmettoAnimalLeague.org. If you see a pet you’d like to meet, either now or during the virtual adoption event, call 843645-1725 to schedule a visit to the PAL Adoption Center located at 56 Riverwalk Blvd in Okatie. To take part in the “PAL at Your Pad” Virtual Adoption Event on Oct. 22, visit Facebook.com/PalmettoAnimalLeague.

Reminders for the new decal system: • Visits will be limited to 3 per week per address (Sunday-Saturday). • Renters of single-family homes should request the decal from property owners. • Citizens who rent from large apartment complexes will use the trash service provided by the complex; for large items, they should go to

the landfill. • Commercial properties are not eligible for a decal. • Commercial business owners are not eligible for a decal. • County residents who choose not to apply for a decal can make arrangements for an individual from a permitted waste hauler of their choice and at their own expense.

As for the Russells, they hope this will be their first turn of many Halloweens spent opening their home. “We wanted a sense of community when we were looking to retire,” said David. “People in Beaufort want to be here, and it’s everything we hoped for and more.” That’s a sentiment with which even the seemingly immortal Gauche would agree.

Five ways to help protect your family online

By Wells Fargo Advisors From listening to music to ordering groceries to working from home, almost all aspects of our daily lives are connected to the internet in some way. But our always-connected nature can come with risks: According to the FBI’s “2020 Internet Crime Report,” the bureau’s Internet Crime Complaint Center averaged almost 15,000 complaints a week and recorded $4.1 billion in victim losses in 2020. Here are some ways to help protect your family online: 1. Learn to spot imposter scams Have you ever received a call, text, or email regarding suspicious activity detected

on your account or suspended online access? It could be a scammer trying to convince you to share sensitive information that would enable them to access your accounts. Increasingly, criminals are able to impersonate financial institutions, large companies, and even government agencies by spoofing caller ID or email addresses so they appear to be legitimate. When you receive a suspicious or unexpected communication, do not respond or click any email links. Instead, contact the company directly using a phone number on its website. Learn more about how to spot common scams at wellsfargo.com/security.

2. Manage and monitor your credit If your data has been compromised through a security breach, consider placing a fraud alert on your credit file by contacting one of the three major credit bureaus – Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. The one you contact will automatically notify the others. Make a habit of reviewing your credit report annually. You can request a free report at annualcreditreport.com for yourself and children over the age of 13. Look for unauthorized accounts that may have been opened in your names. 3. Limit what you share on social media Thieves scour social media profiles for clues to security

questions, passwords, and other information that could help them impersonate potential victims online. First, set your profiles to private – and encourage your family members to do the same. Also, restrict your social media contacts to people you know personally. Finally, watch what information you disclose. Revealing too much personal information in your social profiles or posts can put you at greater risk of identity theft, especially if your bank or other companies use that information to verify your identity. 4. Protect your home network Create a strong password for your wireless network in your home. Use a unique

phrase with a mix of letters, numbers, and special characters. Avoid using any part of your name or email address, information shared on social media, or anything else someone could easily guess. When you are configuring your router, the Department of Homeland Security recommends choosing the Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) setting, which is the strongest encryption option. 5. Stay up to date Cybercriminals change their tactics frequently, so try to stay on top of the latest threats. Keep your devices and apps updated with the latest security patches, and be sure to review the resources pro-

vided by your bank, investment firm, and other financial providers to understand ways to help protect your family and yourself online.

We have heard of situations where people feel perfectly fine, appearing to be in great physical shape, and yet they discover they have a serious illness. It is devastating news, but it is good that they finally know about it and can seek out a doctor’s help. Although there are many who are sick, the doctor can only help those who recognize they need healing.

God the Father loves us despite our sin. It is easy to imagine that God loves us less when we sin. But Jesus shows us that we are loved despite our sinfulness. The Father’s limitless love for us is not dimmed by our brokenness. We can’t decrease his love for us by our sins, nor can we increase his love for us by good actions. As a loving Father, his love for us is already overflowing, incapable of increase or decrease.

We are all in need of healing. Even though we are created to know and love God, we often choose actions which separate us from God. This is what the Bible calls “sin.” In smaller ways or bigger ways, we all experience daily temptations to sin. When we sin, we end up hurting ourselves and those around us. Reflecting back over the years, we can see how our hearts have been spiritually wounded by our sinful choices.

Jesus is the divine physician. During his ministry, Jesus did not spend all of his time with the religious leaders of his day, those who thought of themselves as holy and close to God. Instead, Jesus usually sought out sinful men and women, those who recognized their need for forgiveness and healing. He explained, “It is not the healthy that need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” (Mark 2:17) God freely offers us his forgiveness. Since Jesus was not an ordinary man, but God in our midst, he was able to forgive people’s sins. On one beautiful occasion, a woman with a sinful reputation came and began crying at his feet. Jesus recognized her sorrow for her sins and had pity on her. He told her, “Your sins are forgiven, go in peace!” (Luke 7) Christ’s healing brings joy. Imagine the joy of that woman, who leaves Jesus knowing that she is forgiven of her sins! This is the joy that we have as Christians. Recognizing our spiritual brokenness, we follow the woman’s example and turn to Christ with repentance. And we too experience forgiveness and healing at the hands of the divine physician!

USCB Chamber Music is back Violinist James Ehnes, pianist Andrew Armstrong to play Brahms, Schumann

By Michael Johns In 2007, The Washington Post tried a social experiment on context, perception, and taste: in a banal setting at an inconvenient time, could beauty rise above routine and self-absorption? The newspaper enlisted one of the world's most wellknown violinists, Joshua Bell, to play unaccompanied masterpieces on his 1713 Stradivarius in a downtown Washington, D.C., Metro station. During 43 rush-hour minutes, 1,097 people passed by. Only seven stopped and listened attentively, a distressingly small number. Will the people of the Lowcountry repeat this travesty? One of the greatest violinists of this era, James Ehnes, is traveling to Beaufort to play for us in our backyard. Attend and be counted! The people of the Lowcountry know better than to pass by such an opportunity. Come and experience this sublime presentation of timeless music. Gramophone’s 2021 Artist of the Year, Canadian violinist and violist Ehnes will join pianist and Artistic Director Andrew Armstrong in a duo recital of wistful, enchant-

The composers were fast friends and staunch supporters of each other.

Robert Schumann, the elder by a generation, predicted greatness for Johannes Brahms and helped to bring it about; Brahms venerated and cared for Schumann in health and illness. Schumann's Violin Sonata No 3 in A Minor, WoO 27, Märchenbilder (“Fairytale Pictures”) for Viola and Piano, Op. 113, and

Warmer temperatures lead to more pollen production, so 2021 may be the most intense allergy season yet. The science proves it: Allergies will be worse this year. According to recent research and forecasting, 2021 is shaping up to be a brutal allergy year. Just like 2020, 2019, and 2018 were before it. The length and intensity of pollen seasons are growing, in large part due to climate change. If the planet continues to warm, experts anticipate that miserable allergies will be the norm. A recent study found that pollen season increased by 20 days annually between 1990 and 2018. At the same time, pollen concentrations— at least in North America— have increased by 21% during the same time period. In other words, pollen season lasts a lot longer than it did before, and because there's more pollen in the air, more people are being affected. “Plants breathe in carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide levels are increasing on Earth as a side effect of climate change,” allergist and immunologist Purvi Parikh, MD, told Well+Good. “It’s like the plants are on steroids, with mega-pollinator plants producing more pollen and for longer periods of time.” https://www.refinery29.com/en-

Fall allergies — 2021 will be a bad year SEASONALLY RELATED TRIGGERS While the term “seasonal allergies” generally refers to grass, pollen and mold, there is a different group of triggers that are closely tied to particular seasons. Among them: • Smoke (campfires in summer, fireplaces in winter) • Insect bites and stings (usually in spring and summer) • Chlorine in indoor and outdoor swimming pools • Candy ingredients (Halloween, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter) • Pine trees and wreaths (Thanksgiving to Christmas)

us/2021/05/10479537/why-areallergies-so-bad-right-now

Seasonal allergies, like other types of allergies, develop when the body’s immune system overreacts to something in the environment, usually during spring, summer or fall when certain plants pollinate. The most common culprit for fall allergies is ragweed, a plant that grows wild almost everywhere, but especially on the East Coast and in the Midwest. Ragweed blooms and releases pollen from August

to November. In many areas of the country, ragweed pollen levels are highest in early to mid-September. The following climate factors also can influence how bad your symptoms might be: • Tree, grass and ragweed pollens thrive during cool nights and warm days. • Molds grow quickly in heat and high humidity. • Pollen levels tend to peak in the morning hours. • Rain washes pollen away, but pollen counts can soar after rainfall. • On a day with no wind, airborne allergens are grounded.

• When the day is windy and warm, pollen counts surge.

“Allergy shots, or immunotherapy, allergen immunotherapy, is a useful thing to do. It’s useful not only because it helps with your symptoms, but it’s truly disease-modifying. It actually makes you less allergic.” –Allergist Richard Weber, Md More than two-thirds of spring allergy sufferers have

year-round symptoms. Your best resource for finding what’s causing your suffering and stopping it, not just treating the symptoms, is an allergist. Work together with your allergist to devise strategies to avoid your triggers: • Monitor pollen and mold counts. Weather reports in newspapers and on radio and television often include this information during allergy seasons. • Keep windows and doors shut at home and in your car during allergy season. • To avoid pollen, know which pollens you are sensitive to and then check pollen counts. In spring and summer, during tree and grass pollen season, levels are highest in the evening. In late summer and early fall, during ragweed pollen season, levels are highest in the morning.

• Take a shower, wash your hair and change your clothes after you’ve been working or playing outdoors. • Wear a NIOSH-rated 95 filter mask when mowing the lawn or doing other chores outdoors and take appropriate medication beforehand. Your allergist may also recommend one or more medications to control symptoms. Some of the most widely recommended drugs are available without a prescription (over the counter); others, including some nose drops, require a prescription. If you have a history of prior seasonal problems, allergists recommend starting medications to alleviate symptoms two weeks before they are expected to begin.

Mayo Clinic researchers advocate new approach to breast cancer prevention

A commentary by Mayo Clinic Cancer Center researchers published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology Practice suggests that advances in breast cancer prevention research have resulted in new and innovative opportunities to modify breast cancer risk and potentially reduce breast cancer incidence and mortality. "It is prudent for health care providers to be knowledgeable about the benefits of assessing individual breast cancer risk, and counsel and implement risk-reducing strategies with their patients, says Sandhya Pruthi, M.D., a Mayo Clinic internist and au-

thor of the commentary. Dr. Pruthi encourages evidence-based, risk-reducing strategies include lifestyle modification, preventive anti-estrogen medications, surveillance breast imaging and genetic testing. Women at high risk of harboring a hereditary breast cancer mutation should consider prophylactic surgery to reduce risk. "Physicians should be recommending individualized risk assessments for their patients and counseling them on interventions that range from lifestyle modifications to the use of preventive (anti-estrogen) medications or conjugated equine estrogen,"

says Dr. Pruthi. She says these strategies may be beneficial in reducing hormone-sensitive breast cancer tumors that have a good prognosis, and they also may be beneficial in preventing tumors that are not hormone-sensitive and have a poor prognosis. "For many years, breast cancer prevention research has primarily focused on the use of anti-estrogen medications to reduce the incidence of favorable, hormone-sensitive breast cancers, but it is critical that we reexamine and implement other risk-reducing strategies to prevent unfavorable breast cancers,

She encourages women and their health care providers to consider a comprehensive approach to breast cancer prevention that includes risk assessment; awareness of modifiable lifestyle factors, including low-fat dietary interventions; and use of med-

ications that reduce the risk of dying from breast cancer. Dr. Pruthi says her commentary was based on research conducted in two large randomized clinical trials: the Women's Health Initiative Dietary Modification trial and the Women's Health Initiative randomized trial with conjugated equine es-

Our recent rains and the changing season have allowed Dragonflies—a most beautiful insect—to prosper in the Lowcountry. Dragonflies are insects that people notice. As adults they are large, diurnal, often colorful, and are swift, acrobatic fliers. They are sufficiently noticeable that they have received numerous folk names. They have become embedded in folklore and mythology in many cultures and are the subjects of beautiful art. Dragonflies are an important environmental indicator. They rely on healthy aquatic ecosystems and healthy food chains. Threats to their wellbeing include habitat loss and water pollution. Dragonflies play ecological roles not only as predators but also as prey for birds, frogs and other creatures. Dragonflies eat mosquitos. This is certainly true and is undoubtedly beneficial since mosquitos are at best annoying and at worst dangerous vectors of serious and widespread diseases. https://

Dragonflies are darling www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/

Dragonflies are important to their environments both as predators (particularly of mosquitos) and as prey to birds and fish. Because these insects require stable oxygen levels and clean water, scientists consider them reliable bioindicators of the health of an ecosystem. https://www.

nationalgeographic.com One of the most useful dragonfly facts is that they reside low in the food chain, so scientific study of their numbers and their health can reveal changes in water ecosystems more quickly than studying other animals or plants. Some national parks are beginning to use this species to survey and document the health of the park's water ecosystems. While adult dragonflies hunt for the adult insects, the dragonfly larvae also feed on

harmful underwater larvae, like mosquitoes. They spend most of their lives underwater as nymphs, where their contributions to prevent mosquito outbreak is important to human beings. Dragonfly eggs are laid and hatched in or near water, so their lives impact both water and land ecosystems.

Once hatched, dragonfly nymphs are able to breathe underwater, and they use a motion similar to jet propulsion to move through their environment. This enables them to eat harmful aquatic organisms such as mosquito larvae. The nymph will continue contributing to this ecosystem for one to five

years before becoming a mature adult. A dragonfly may consume as much as a fifth of its body weight in prey per day. Dragonflies are also some of the insect world's most efficient hunters, catching up to 95% of the prey they pursue. Adult dragonflies hunt on the wing using their excep-

tionally acute eyesight and strong, agile flight. Dragonflies possess remarkable flying skills. They can fly forward at approximately 35 miles per hour. They can even hover in mid-flight for almost one minute and rotate 360 degrees in place. Moreover, they can fly backwards with similar alacrity. Dragonfly vision is thought to be like slow motion for humans. Dragonflies see faster than we do; they see around 200 images per second. A dragonfly can see in 360 degrees, and nearly 80 percent of the insect's brain is dedicated to its sight. Unlike many other insects, they do not damage crops or spread diseases, says Christine Lewis, director of education at the Virginia Living Museum in southeastern Virginia. Despite their intimidating size, dragonflies are harmless to humans. Other sources: https://www.biophiliafoundation. org https://en.wikipedia.org https://sciencing.com

The power of love — Hugs and cuddles have long-term effects

How often do you hug? Do you like to sit close and hold each other’s hands? Research shows it’s good for your health. Between loving partners, between parents and children, or even be-

including pets. It does this by acting through what scientists call the dopamine reward system. Dopamine is a brain chemical that plays a crucial part in how we perceive pleasure. Many drugs

WISE CHOICES—FEEL THE LOVE Love and affection can have many positive effects, both mental and physical, that have been linked to the hormone oxytocin. And, it certainly can’t hurt to follow the advice the research suggests: • Mothers should have as much warm contact with their infants as possible, especially during the first few weeks of life. If you can’t do this, though—because of illness, a premature birth or other reason—just give all the love and affection you can.

Hormone: A molecule sent through the bloodstream to signal another part of the body to grow or react a certain way. tween close friends, physical affection can help the brain, the heart and other body systems you might never have imagined. For centuries, artists have examined love through poetry, painting, music and countless other arts. There is definitely a chemistry and biology of love. At the center of how our bodies respond to love and affection is a hormone called oxytocin. Most of our oxytocin is made in the area of the brain called the hypothalamus. Some is released into our bloodstream, but much of its effect is thought to reside in the brain. Oxytocin makes us feel good when we’re close to family and other loved ones,

of abuse act through this system. Problems with the system can lead to serious depression and other mental illness. Oxytocin does more than make us feel good. It lowers the levels of stress hormones in the body, reducing blood pressure, improving mood, increasing tolerance for pain, and perhaps even speeding how fast wounds heal. It also seems to play an important role in our relationships. It’s been linked, for example, to how much we trust others. One thing researchers can say with certainty is that physical contact affects oxytocin levels. People who get lots of hugs and other warm contact at home tend

• Mothers who’ve had a cesarean section may need even more warm contact time, because they haven’t had the increase in oxytocin that labor produces. • Couples that have warm contact several times a day— hugging, holding hands, sitting close, etc.—have higher oxytocin levels than those that don’t.

to have the highest levels of oxytocin in the laboratory. It is believed that frequent warm contact may somehow

prime the oxytocin system and make it quicker to turn on whenever there’s warm contact, even in a laboratory.

The same holds true for mothers and infants: they both produce higher levels of oxytocin when they have lots of warm contact with each other. Women who hold their babies more at home have higher responses when they hold their baby in the lab. Much of what we know about oxytocin has come from research in animals. Other mother mammals, for instance, can stimulate oxytocin in their young by licking and grooming them. This loving care has longterm effects. Most of us are genetically programmed to form social

bonds. But, the ability to form close bonds is shaped by early experiences. In the end, a complex interaction of genes and experience makes some people form social bonds more easily than others. We may not yet fully understand how love and affection develop between people—or how love affects our health—but research is giving us some guidance. Give those you love all the affection you can. It can’t hurt, and it may bring a bounty of health benefits.

CROSS COUNTRY Seahawk boys, Shark girls sweep county crowns

Hilton Head’s boys and May River’s girls bested their county rivals on the trails Thursday, claiming both the team and individual titles at the 2021 Beaufort County Cross Country Championship in Bluffton. The Seahawks (33 pts) impressed on the boys’ side, placing all five scoring runners in the top 10 led by overall champion Caden Thune (16:43.92). William Lemire (17:26.92), Max Struna (17:48.05), and Miles Brown (17:49.64) took fifth, eighth, and ninth, while freshman Coen Smith (17:57.68) rounded out the stellar Seahawk showing in 10th. Sparked by individual runner-up Earlon Baker (16:49.67), the Bluffton Bobcats (40 pts) took second place in the team standings. Tyler McMahan (17:33.81) and Carson Colmer (17:46.39) nabbed a pair of top-10 finishes in sixth and seventh. May River (70 pts) earned the bronze thanks to Cohen MacDonald (17:15.98) and Noah Wasserman (17:20.23) placing third and fourth.

Defense lead Sharks to upset of Eagles in battle of region heavyweights

LowcoSports.com The underdogs absorbed a couple of early punches and fought back with a flurry of big plays as May River went into the Eagles’ Nest on Friday and unseated twotime defending region champion Beaufort High with a 24-21 victory that puts the Sharks in the driver’s seat in Region 7-4A. Garvin Douglas rushed for 200 yards and a pair of touchdowns and threw a touchdown pass, and the Sharks’ defense stopped the Eagles on downs in the final two minutes to end a two-game skid against Beaufort. The home team came out hot, as star running back Amariee Morris announced his presence after sitting out last week with an ankle injury. Morris picked up 44 yards on

four carries on the opening series, breaking away for a 26-yard TD run to give the Eagles a quick lead. He did it again on the next possession, sweeping around the left side for a 29-yard score and a 14-0 advantage. But Douglas and the Sharks have shown their mettle all season, and they answered right back. The star senior quarterback broke a 54-yard run to put the Sharks in scoring position, then floated a pass over the middle for tight end Max Kimmel, who hauled it in for a 23-yard TD to get May River on the board. An acrobatic James Dennison interception in the red zone preserved the lead for a moment, but May River’s Darrion Perry slipped through and blocked a punt to set the Sharks up at the 5 with less than a minute left in the half, and Douglas gam-

bled on third-and-goal, tucking it and running when he couldn’t find an open receiver and powering over the goal line to tie it before halftime. The Sharks got the ball first in the second half, and they cashed in on a big gamble. Douglas broke out of the pack on fourth-and-2 for a 47-yard TD run that gave the Sharks their first lead of the game — and one they didn’t surrender. An Eagles fumble on their own 39 led to Jonah Comfort’s 39-yard field goal to make it a 10-point game, but Beaufort rekindled its dormant offense on the next series, as Tyler Haley hit McLeod Reichel for 26 yards, then punched it in from 1 to make it a three-point margin with 5:23 left. Beaufort came up with a quick stop to give the offense a chance at some late heroics, but the Sharks

closed in on a scrambling Haley on fourth-and-9 from near midfield and ran out the clock on a hard-fought road win that puts them in position to claim the region crown and the top seed in the Class 4A playoffs. Douglas picked up 200 of the Sharks’ 250 rushing yards on 26 carries and scored twice, and he was 4-for-11 for 49 yards with a TD and an interception. The Sharks’ defense frustrated Beaufort for most of the night, as Jaeon Allen and Perry provided excellent downfield coverage, limiting Haley to 51 yards on 6-for-10 passing and slowing Morris after the quick start, as he finished with 139 yards on 19 carries. May River (6-2, 3-0) returns home to face Colleton County on Friday, while Beaufort (6-2, 2-1) travels to Bluffton.

Parris Island celebrates 130 years

By Sgt. Dana Beesley, USMC For 130 years, Marines have been on Parris Island. On June 26, 1891, a Marine guard consisting of one sergeant, two corporals, and 10 privates were assigned to Port Royal, thus establishing the first Marine posting. The base itself overlooks Port Royal Sound, one of the biggest deep-water harbors along the eastern seaboard. The post eventually became known as Marine Barracks, U.S. Naval Station Port Royal, S.C. It would be another two years before these Marines had barracks lodging, and any access to the base itself had to be by boat. At the turn of the 20th century and beyond, fresh water had to be shipped in to the Marines and eventual recruits because of the high salt content that harmed the well system on base. In 1909, Naval Station Port Royal became the location of Marine Corps Officer Candidates School. By 1911, a recruit depot became officially operational as a

In 1915, the Marine Corps bought the land and entitlements from the United States Navy for one dollar, thus making Parris Island the Second Oldest Post in the Marine Corps. It was here where

a massive expansion of the depot began to take place. During this construction is when the local government eventually dubbed the installation Marine Barracks Parris Island on May 3, 1919. During World War I, recruit training was eight weeks long, as opposed to the current 13 weeks. The recruits who came to Parris Island after 1923 were lucky

One of the first images of Marine Barracks, U.S. Naval Station Port Royal, S.C., circa 1920's. to witness the construction of the causeway that now divides Parris Island from the towns of Beaufort and Port Royal. Between the years of 1918 and 1941, Parris Island was home to multiple units such as an Advanced Training Seagoing Depot, Field Music School and various aviation elements. In the first months of World War II, the intake

of recruits to the depot was simply too much for the base to hold, and the only solution was to shorten training programs and ship new Marines off Parris Island quicker than before. This process eventually waned to better prepare Marines for combat, establish a full-fledged Drill Instructor School, and welcome women reservists to train aboard the depot.

After the Integration Act of 1948 came into effect, women began training in full-sized platoons. By the next year, both African American and female recruits were fully integrated into recruit training aboard Parris Island. During World War II, approximately 138,000 Marines were made on Parris Island; this number grew to nearly 200,000 as the Vietnam War began. The depot was instrumental in providing Marines in every major conflict since 1915, including 138,000 troops during the Korean War. Parris Island became re-designated as “Marine Corps Recruit Depot/Eastern Recruiting Region, Parris Island, S.C.” on April 1, 1976. With the introduction of the Crucible in 1996, values-based training and inclusion became the norm. Today, Parris Island graduates 18,000 Marines each year. During its illustrious history, the depot has continued to make Marines and carry on the traditions that began at the depot’s founding.

What veterans, spouses need to know about federal jobs

e learned in the Oct. 7 Veterans Benefits article that the best way to file for Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E) services is to apply online at va.gov/careers-employment at https:// www.va.gov/careers-employment/. This article (Part 1 of 2) and next weeks’ article (Part 2 of 2) will cover 13 things that should help veterans in their job search. Article 1 covers six important topics and Article 2 will cover seven more important items of interest and tips concerning landing federal government jobs. As a Veterans Employment Assistance Volunteer with the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center and with the Charleston, S.C. Association of the U.S. Army (AUSA) Chapter, I am asked many times, “How can I get a good job with the Federal Government?” Here are some things I tell them. 1. The hardest job is “finding the job you want.” I tell veterans that the hardest job in the world is to find and land a good job --- the job you want and matches your skills. It takes lots of research, preparation, and hard work. Job seekers need to master: • Researching the companies and fields in which you are interested, • Writing a good cover letter, • Writing a top-quality resume, • Learning to network,

LARRY DANDRIDGE

• Learning to use social media (LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Rally Point, etc.), • Dressing properly for interviews, • Planning for and practicing answering and asking questions at interviews, • Writing a good thank you note immediately after (the same day) the interview, and • Learning to, and, the job seeker trying to land a federal job must do much more. Most people looking for a job know that they (normally) should not leave their current job until they have the new job they want. Veterans should consider taking a non-federal government job, until his or her application can go through the slow government job processes. 2. Read everything at FEDS HIRE VETS site – https://fedshirevets.gov/ job/index.aspx – and the linked websites. Veterans, transitioning service members, and their families will find this site to be full of resources and information that can assist in finding a federal career. Veterans using the site are told that thousands of Federal job opportunities

are available. The site will help veterans and their family members to understand: • Veterans' preference and Family Member Preference (Derived Preference), • The basics of how Federal jobs are filled and the Veterans Employment Center on eBenefits, • How to be competitive. • Training and education opportunities designed to help you find a job and much more. The site also provides direct links to the Veteran Affairs Career Exploration site at https://www.vets.gov/ employment/; the Department of Defense Veterans site at DODVETS.COM; the Military to Federal Jobs site at www.mil2fedjobs.com; and the USAJOBS website at https://www.usajobs.gov/. 3. Know where to look for federal job openings. There are two ways to get a federal job – one is by appointment when administrations (presidents) change and the other is by competing for federal jobs. Most of us fall into the competitive category. USAJOBS is a United States Office of Personnel Management website and most but not all federal jobs are announced through this web site. USAJOBS is just a portal and each application you submit goes to the agency that announces the job through that portal. Once the veteran or veteran’s spouse has read everything at the FEDS HIRE VETS site and the associated links and they should go to

USAJOBS to create a federal formatted resume. 4. Build your Federal Formatted Resume at http:// usa.jobs/. I recommend that the veteran or family member go to USA.jobs and read everything there, establish an account, and prepare a federal formatted resume using the resume builder at this site. Write your best accomplishments in your federal formatted resume in the Challenge, Context, Action, and Results (CCAR) story format. The CCAR Model stands for: Challenge – Describe a specific problem or goal. Context – Describe the individuals and groups you worked with, and/or the environment in which you worked, to address a particular challenge (e.g., clients, co-workers, members of Congress, shrinking budget, low morale). Action – Discuss the specific actions you took to address a challenge. Results – Give specific

examples of measures/outcomes that had some impact on the organization. 5. Use action verbs, key words, and create an error-free resume. The resume builder should include all key words for that job position and career field (those key words in the job announcement and job description), which are applicable to the job and the applicant. If your federal resume is not at least five pages long it will most likely not get you a (government) job interview. Needless to say, resumes must be grammatically correct with no spelling errors. Job applications must be filed within the first day or two for an opening announcement, if you want to be considered, as many announcements are closed after the first couple of days. Veterans should apply for only those jobs they are qualified for and are truly interested in. If Vets are not getting inquiries from the jobs they are applying for,

most likely their resume is not up to the high standards needed to get a job interview. Tailor your resume to every job you apply for. 6. DOD 180 Day Rule and family Member Preference Programs. A retired member of the Armed Forces may not be appointed to a civilian position in DOD (including a non-appropriated fund position) within 180 days after retirement unless: The Secretary concerned authorizes the appointment; or the position is authorized special pay under 5 U.S.C. 5305; or a state of national emergency exists. There are some Military Spouse non-competitive appointments available and there is a DOD Military Spouse Preference Program. Family members of 100% disabled veterans and widows/ widowers of deceased veterans can also get preference in hiring. Next week’s edition of The Island News (Oct. 28) will cover eight more tips on how to get a good job with the government. Larry Dandridge is a retired Lt. Col. In the U.S. Army.

Sales tax ballot initiative will reduce property taxes, spur local investment

n Nov. 2, Beaufort County voters will be asked to consider the implementation of an additional one-cent sales tax. I wanted to take a minute to share with you why I think passage of this referendum is so important – for residents of our beautiful city, and for the city itself. Unlike other sales tax programs, this proposed initiative requires municipalities to apply the bulk of the funding toward directly reducing YOUR property taxes. If passed, Beaufort County and the City of Beaufort will EACH apply 71% percent of all taxes collected under this initiative toward a direct reduction in county and municipal real and personal property taxes paid by our residents. Homes,

STEPHEN D. MURRAY III

vehicles, boats, and other taxable properties will all receive reductions under this program. So, the vast majority of this will go toward reducing our residents’ tax liability. But the balance, 29 percent, will help our residents as well. We will help “boost” our City as we leverage local investments. The City of Beaufort has committed to using the remainder of the funds as follows:

• Stormwater projects • Improvements to streets and sidewalks • Improvements to our parks and tree canopy These are crucial projects to our future. As these projects are funded and come online, future tax collections will be included as part of the capital improvement and operations budgeting process for the City of Beaufort. As a resident of our City, you ALWAYS have the right to comment on any part of our budget during our public hearings. Also keep in mind that Beaufort County, and the City of Beaufort, has a significant tourism industry. While specific figures are hard to pin down, we know that a significant portion of

the sales tax revenue that is collected is generated by visitors to the region. These are people who use our resources but don’t pay a proportionate share to maintain our cities and towns. By leveraging the local option sales tax program, our communities can use dollars spent by visitors to reduce property taxes and increase local government investment in infrastructure, programs, and services. Local governments in Beaufort County are currently working to complete the infrastructure investments that were provided for under the transportation tax program. That tax is projected to end before the end of this year. As a result, if the local option sales tax initiative is approved by voters, there

will effectively be no change to the current sales tax rate. If the penny tax passes there will be: • No increase in the current sales tax rate; • A guaranteed reduction in real and personal property taxes, and; • Additional revenues for capital improvements in the City of Beaufort. I know that there are likely to be questions regarding the sales tax program. Answers to many of these questions can be found at boostourcommunities.com. I would also encourage you to contact Kathleen Williams, the City’s communications manager, with questions, concerns, or for more information on this program. She can be reached at kwilliams@cityofbeaufort.

org and by phone at 843-4703508. The sales tax initiative will be on the Nov. 2 ballot. For more information on how and where to vote, go to the website of the Beaufort County Board of Voter Registration & Elections, https:// www.beaufortcountysc.gov/ vote/index.html, or call the board at its Beaufort office, 843-255-6900. As always, we urge you vote on Nov. 2, and to consider all the reasons it makes sense to support what we’re calling the penny boost – a boost for ALL the communities in Beaufort County. Stephen Murray, a Beaufort native, was elected mayor of Beaufort in November 2020 and is serving a fouryear term. Previously, he was a member of City Council.

The Life and Times of Viruses: In for the Long Haul

iruses are hardy little devils. They have been around for more than 30 million years on Spaceship Earth. Many of humankind’s diseases derive from viruses; if transferred from animals, they are called zoonotic infections. Regardless of the source, viruses have been, and remain, the greatest killers of humankind in our short three million-year history as the genus Homo. Get the picture? The primary health information about COVID-19 has focused on the safety and efficacy of the COVID vaccines. It is an incontrovertible fact that these vaccines save lives. But this reality hasn’t had sufficient impact on folks’ mindsets to convince our unvaccinated friends and neighbors to get “the shot.” In the arena of educating Americans about COVID, we don’t hear much about the virus itself other than thisor-that variant has this-orthat impact on humans.

DAVID TAUB

Maybe it’s time to reflect on the nature of viruses themselves, because they ain’t goin’ away; they’re here for the long haul, kinda like cockroaches. You can’t just wait ‘em out. Viruses were here eons before our progenitors came to occupy this planet. A very short and superficial science lesson in virology might be helpful in understanding how and why COVID is such a nasty killer. All true viruses contain nucleic acid, the road map for all cellular replication, either DNA or RNA and protein. Nucleic acid encodes the genetic information unique to each type of virus, which is called the genome. The DNA/RNA of

each virus is surrounded by multiple copies of one or a few proteins, which form a capsule around the nucleic acid. The entire infectious virus particle, called a virion, consists of the nucleic acid and its protein outer shell. The simplest viruses contain only enough DNA/RNA to encode four proteins; the most complex viruses can encode 100-200 proteins. This protein covering is infective, while the virion contains at least one unique protein synthesized by specific genes in the nucleic acid of that particular virus. Viruses are intra-cellular parasites; they replicate only after invading specific host cells. Viruses can only exist and replicate inside cells of bacteria, plants and animals. Viral infection begins when proteins on the virion’s surface bind to specific protein receptor sites (attachment areas) on the surface of the host organism’s cells. Then the magic of virus reproduction begins. After the virion attaches

to the specific host receptor sites, it kidnaps and invades the cells of the host. Once there, the virus plants its own DNA/RNA road map into the host’s cells. Once implanted there, the host cell itself becomes a manufacturing plant replicating the virus by the zillions, thus the host becomes a giant “clone” of the virus. When the virus has reached a certain level of virus concentration, the host begins to shed the virus, a condition characterizing the infected host as “viremic,” which means the host is shedding zillions upon zillions of virus replicates. This action makes the host itself an infectious agent. The massive replications of the virus and the host’s shedding of them creates an infectious Frankenstein clone. The unvaccinated INFECTED human then directly shares the virus by way of its sneezes, coughs, urinations, defecations, snotty nose, etc. Said infected, un-

vaccinated human becomes a mobile dispersion bomb of infectious killer viruses on two legs. Viruses are exceptionally well adapted at making new forms of themselves, with simple mutations (modifications) in their DNA/RNA. This incredible adaptability is why viruses have been with us for more than 30 million years, and also why COVID-19 has created many variations of itself, such as the highly infectious Delta variant that has caused so many deaths in 2021. So, boys and girls, as with the flu virus, COVID is likely to become a common-place virus that will be among us for a long time to come. Along with our yearly flu vaccinations, which are adjusted annually to immunize the yearly changes in the flu viruses, it won’t be long until we have a yearly COVID vaccine available to go along with the flu. Once again, I leave you with this clarion call to action: At present, only about

68 percent of adult Americans have received at least one “jab” of vaccine; hardly sufficient to reach the exotic and mythical realm of socalled “herd immunity.” Just a reminder that unvaccinated folks are 10-times more likely to get infected, hospitalized and die than those of us who are vaccinated. Like many of its virus relatives, COVID-19 will be with humankind for a long time to come. Accept that reality and adjust accordingly. Vaccines for COVID-19 are safe and effective. They save lives. I beg those of you who remain unvaccinated to reconsider the contribution you can make to the health and safety of your kinsmen/ women. Please get vaccinated.

Perspective shapes our experiences, colors our world

ven if the grass isn't greener, it will always appear so in the right light. The spectral composition has us all viewing life differently depending on the light source. Underneath the warm sun, blue skies seem clear, while we see gray from the inside of a dusty window. The kaleidoscope of perspective holds the power to illuminate or darken dismally. October brings golden hues lingering with summer's weakening grasp as Mother Nature dances between warmth and the chillier side of seasons. The temperatures vary from smoldering to crisp, leaving

us begging for one or the other; consistency is comfortable and predictability plush. Few events bring such a temperamental month to account more than planning a child's birthday party. Born in a month that brings threats of hurricanes, promises of pumpkins, and the

most extraordinary wardrobe woes, my little one had but one request, a pool party. The one choice that assures battling ambiguity was the only choice for her, how familiar. Every parent knows the difference between a whim and a soulful plea one is a harmonic mention while the other leans against the wall of childhood dreams. To her, summer birthdays are the greener grass. Hesitantly, I looked into her fall-colored eyes and vowed sunshine even on a cloudy day. The week teetered from simmering to a steady boil, fully prepping the stage for a lovely swim. Then it

happened, Mother Nature woke up on the wrong side of summer, sending an uninvited chill ensuring a less than refreshing dip. Convinced all attendees would be disappointed in Summer's defeat, I sat down to prepare the miniature version of me. Her freckled nose scrunched in confusion as I explained the turn of events. Bracing for impact from the rubble of shattered dreams, she taught me more about perspective than I thought possible. "Momma, it's OK, it's just cold water. If we all jump in together, we will be fine. We just have to stay close and

keep moving." Absolutely sure she would be the only one to see the sunny side of things, I did my very best to proceed with her special request. One by one, fellow freckled faces arrived with impenetrable enthusiasm, towels in hand marching into battle with fierce resolve. Just as my little one said, they joined hands, leapt into the reality of failed plans, and rose victorious. A squeal heard around the world, or at least the community, brought its own type of warmth, huddled in happiness. The cold was no match. I saw a shaded pool. She saw an adventure.

The light source from which we view makes all the difference. Children remind us that the light from within can color our world, maybe not heat it, but artfully color it. At the end of the day, October was October, children were children, and the cake was cake. Perspective is the most powerful thing shaping our experiences and coloring our world.

I wonder if he still carries those memories I My son, Zach, was 8 or 9, and t is Sunday morning, and I’m sitting at a conference-sized table with an almost-done Ravensburger 1,000-piece puzzle centered on its wooden surface. As I sit here guests — sleepy and waiting for breakfast at 8 — stop and spend a minute or two trying to find a piece (of the puzzle) that fits. The table is just beyond a sofa that faces a stone hearth large enough to completely embrace a Honda Fit. And within that huge space is an actual, well-tended, early-morning fire. The stone fireplace was built by Cherokee stonemasons in 1922. The Chestnut paneling giving this large room its warm, secure feeling was installed by Amos and Lillian Frye in 1923. And for many years thereafter Amos and Lillian tended to small town bankers, Southern business people and the occasional celebrity (Bill Tilden) who somehow made their way to the Fryemont Inn located above Bryson City, N.C. I’m sitting in this pleasant room with 15 other early-ris-

ers who have come for their complimentary coffee. They are here because there are no coffee machines in the rooms. Nor are there televisions, refrigerators or air conditioners in the rooms. The guest rooms are free of electronics or connection with the Internet. The fireplace, conversation and coffee are all here in the lobby — and it is the lobby where one gravitates, and then lingers, while staying at the Fryemont. My wife, my son and I found the Fryemont Inn 35 years ago. We came seeking serious hiking trails and some respite from Beaufort’s relentless heat. We found nearby (almost vertical) trails; and Mt. Leconte; and the mysterious Alum Caves on the way to the top of Leconte.

And then we found Deep Creek. My son, Zach, was 8 or 9, and I wanted something beyond Jungle Golf at Myrtle Beach; or a fiberglass “log flume” at Carowinds; or an inverted roller coaster at Busch Gardens. In those long gone days I was looking for excitement; a way to bond with my son; and wanted an organic alternative to Space Mountain at Disneyland. I wanted speed — and, yes, a little bit of danger — and found these things plunging down a frigid,

boulder-strewn mountain stream (Deep Creek) in an inner tube. But there was something else. At the Fryemont, dinner and breakfast are included in the price of the room. Dinner is usually some variation on trout; breakfast is not your rushed, abbreviated afterthought involving cold cereal, yogurt and make-your-own-waffles. Because the meals are paid-for, one finds their way to the dining room (it also comes with a Honda-sized fireplace) and re-lives the

day’s outdoor experience. This is the moment to relax, have that second Merlot, and embellish the boulder-bouncing ride down Deep Creek. Or expand and lend detail to the hand-overhand, cable-assisted climb up to the Alum Caves. In order to enhance these story-sharing opportunities there are several large, 12to 14-place tables that can seat an entire family. One often sees the arthritic, slightly annoyed patriarch at the head of the table — he has paid the tab for his extended family — listening to his son-in-law frame that day’s hike in a way that underscores the boy’s exaggerated self-importance. He will never understand why his daughter married this boring, self-centered boy. The Fryemont is not for everyone. And there are small problems like missing soap and the abrupt failure of the hot water mid-shower. But this place is a rare opportunity to linger over an actual, often used checkerboard; to engage a complete

As I sit here this morning my eyes wander over to a Skittle box (“Skittles is a noisy game. Please play only between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. Thank You!”) and remember my son spinning the wooden top trying to knock-down the wooden pins as the top spun from compartment to compartment.
