That same day Lacombe met with “A diagnosis of breast cancer can be
overwhelming to patients,” Wilson said. “They get so much information, they can’t process it all. I’m there to answer questions and help guide them through the months of treatment that lie ahead.” The treatment plan started with a partial mastectomy. Along with the cancerous tissue, Dr. Burrus removed three lymph nodes to determine if the cancer had spread. “The trend is to perform less and less surgery on lymph nodes to reduce the risk of lymphedema, a very painful and often lifelong problem,” Burrus said. “Fortunately, the biopsy of the lymph nodes came back negative.” An Oncotype genetic test was performed on the tumor to determine the effectiveness of chemotherapy on her specific cancer. The test predicted a low response, sparing Lacombe of the side effects of the powerful drugs. However, to kill any microscopic cancer cells that could be present in her breast, Lacombe would need 35 treatments of radiation therapy. During the entire seven weeks of treatment, friends and the parents of her students provided Lacombe with meals every week night. When she completed her radiation this past January, she was cancer-free. Determined to stay healthy, she began exercising fives day a week at Beaufort Memorial’s LifeFit Wellness Center and has lost 20 pounds. “I was given a gift and I’m not going to squander it,” Lacombe said. “Cancer made me realize what’s important in my life.”
A Beaufort restaurant owner who helped lead a public protest against another Beaufort businessman’s treatment of women was arrested last week and charged with assault and battery and criminal sexual account. Kenneth Reed, 47, owner of Maggie’s Pub and Eatery in Habersham, was arrested Thursday, Sept. 27, and released the next day, according to the Beaufort County jail log. He was charged with three counts of second degree assault and battery and two counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct. The Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office said five Kenneth Reed women have filed complaints against Reed since July 20. The initial report came from a former employee of Reed’s who said he physically assaulted her at his residence in Habersham. In the weeks that followed the woman’s report, four other women, who had also worked for Reed, reported that they suffered similar and more serious sexual assaults. The women reported the incidents occurred over a period of a year from May 2017 through May 2018 at Maggie’s Pub and at another business in Beaufort where Reed is an employee. Sheriff ’s Office investigators met with the five victims over the past few months to obtain statements and details of the incidents. Investigators also consulted the 14th Judicial Circuit Solicitor’s Office during the investigation and, after the cases were reviewed by solicitors, they recommended that warrants be sought for Reed’s arrest for the five offenses. On Thursday, Sheriff ’s Office investigators met with a Beaufort County magistrate and presented the facts of the cases. The magistrate found probable cause existed and issued warrants for Reed’s arrest for the five offenses. Deputies assigned to the Sheriff ’s Office Warrants Section located Reed at his place of employment in Beaufort and arrested him for the five active warrants. Reed was transported to the Beaufort County Detention Center without incident. Reed was released on $29,000 bond. In August, Reed helped organize a protest in downtown Beaufort against Gene Brancho, the former owner of Eat Sleep Play Beaufort, and hosted a meeting for women who claimed to have been victims of bullying and unfair business practices.
Family, friends remember WBECHS student Morazan Story and photo by Justin Jarrett
The Warrior mascot usually brings excitement and comic relief to Whale Branch Early College High School events. On Friday night, it brought a wave of emotions, and plenty of tears. Carlos Morazan donned the costume at halftime of the Warriors’ home football game against Woodland and, surrounded by family and friends, made his way to midfield.
It was a tribute to his son, Kevin, who died Tuesday, Sept. 25, after a single-vehicle accident. Kevin Morazan was 17. Kevin was a popular student at Whale Branch, where he was a member of the JROTC, played on the soccer team, and entertained peers and fans as the school mascot. He was driving north on Bruce K. Smalls Drive when his SUV ran off the road, struck a mailbox, and

rolled several times. Kevin, who was not wearing his seatbelt, was pronounced dead at the scene. Three other students were in the vehicle; one suffered critical injuries and another was treated for minor injuries. On Friday, the Warriors wore “KM” stickers on their helmets to honor Kevin, and many students wore homemade T-shirts emblazoned with “Long Live Kevin.” An moment of silence was observed

prior to the game in his honor. During an emotional halftime ceremony, a couple dozen friends and family members made their way to midfield, where Carlos, in full Warrior costume, mimed hugging gestures and blew kisses to the crowd. After a balloon release, the group made its way to the home sidelines, where Carlos comforted a weeping group of Whale Branch cheerleaders.

Must-Dos for Baby's Safe Sleep PROVIDED BY STATE FARM Selecting a suitable and safe sleep environment for your baby can be overwhelming. Keep safety in mind with these considerations. If you're buying a new crib: • Look for certification by the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association, which ensures your crib has been thoroughly tested. (http://www.jpma.org/?page=certification) • Check the floor model for loose spindles or a shaky frame. These could be signs of poor construction and an unsafe environment for your baby. (http://www.consumerreports. org/cro/cribs/buying-guide.htm) If you want to use a vintage crib: • The spindles should be no more than 2 3/8 inches apart — anything wider could allow baby's head to get stuck. (http://www. whattoexpect.com/pregnancy/ask- heidi/ crib-safety.aspx) • Have the frame tested for lead paint and make sure it doesn't have any structural weaknesses. • Avoid older cribs with pull-down sides, which have been connected to infant deaths. (http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/ cribs/buying-guide.htm) Exploring Non-Crib Options There are no federal safety standards (http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/ cribs/buying-guide.htm) for co-sleeping or bedside baskets. If you'd like your infant to sleep in your bed, on a same-surface 'sidecar' co-sleeper, or in a bassinet, remember the following (http://cosleeping.nd.edu/safe-cosleeping-guidelines/): • Infants should always sleep on their backs. • Sleeping surfaces should always be firm and clean. • Blankets should be light and comfortable. • Infants should never have their heads covered during sleep. Outfitting Your Crib The structural integrity of the crib matters as much as its contents and location when it comes to infant sleep safety. Keep the following recommendations in mind: • Use a firm mattress (https://www.aap.

org/en-us/about-the-aap/aap-press- room/ Pages/AAP-Expands-Guidelines-for-Infant-Sleep-Safety-and-SIDS-Risk- Reduction.aspx) that fits tightly against the crib sides with no more than two fingers' width (http://www.cpsc.gov/en/Safety-Education/Safety-Education- Centers/cribs/) of a gap. • Remove soft or loose bedding and toys — like quilts, pillows and stuffed animals — which can cause suffocation or sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). • Avoid using bumpers on the sides of your crib. • Place the crib away from blind cords and other potential strangulation hazards. (http://www.parents.com/baby/safety/ nursery/safe-nursery/?slideId=48465) • Don't hang anything heavy over the crib, and avoid decorations with hanging pieces that a baby could grab.

Seeking God
Who Just Moved In? Our Assumptions About God
You’ve heard things about the neighbor down the street.
God has revealed himself as a loving Father.
Ever since he moved into the neighborhood, people have been saying negative things about him. This impression is strengthened when you see him out in his yard, mumbling to himself as he pulls weeds. As a result, you never try to speak with him or get to know him. But one day, he introduces himself to you and you both begin talking. It turns out, what you had heard about him wasn’t at all accurate, and he’s actually a wonderful person.
When Christians speak of God, we mean the infinite being who created the universe and everything in it. He is a person, meaning he is a “someone” who loves and cares for us, rather than an impersonal force or energy. He created the human race and has revealed himself to us so that we can know him and enjoy a relationship with him. Of all the earthly images that he could have used to symbolize how he considers us, his favorite is to present himself as our loving and merciful father.
We tend to make presumptions about God, too. As in our example, we might never have been properly introduced to God. We may have negative ideas about him from things we have heard from family or friends. We might have an impression of him that is inaccurate or incomplete, and these impressions can keep us from even wanting to seek God out. What impressions might you have about God? Perhaps God was never talked about in your family when you were growing up, and so you’ve never really considered matters of faith to be very important. Maybe you assume that God is just for people who are weak-minded or gullible. You may think of God as a force, an energy, or a higher level of existence, rather than as a person.
What might need to be healed for you to seek God? Over the years, what has influenced the way you think about God? What might be the assumptions that you have about God, perhaps even without realizing it? If there are wounds from your childhood, perhaps you can talk to God about them and ask for healing. Like the neighbor in our example, it could be that God is different than we are imagining, and we will be glad that we got to know him!
Wounds in our heart can also affect our view of God. If we experienced problems in our relationship with one or both of our parents, we can unconsciously imagine God in the same way. For example, if our father was absent or emotionally distant, we may imagine God as being somewhat detached as well, not caring about our daily needs. If our mother held grudges and never seemed to forgive us, we can find it hard to believe that God is truly merciful and willing to forgive our sins. If our parents were overly demanding and hard to please, we could imagine God in the same way, thinking we have to earn his love by being good.

Lower your risk for advanced age-related macular degeneration by eating heart-healthy foods By Mark S. Siegel, MD FAAO
Eating the nutritious vegetables, fruits and fish of a Mediterranean-inspired diet can reduce your risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or having it become more advanced. A European study and a Portuguese study both showed that a diet rich in plant-based foods and fish, with less dairy and Dr. Mark Siegel red meat, may reduce your risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), or prevent it from becoming worse. The Mediterranean diet generally includes: • Leafy green vegetables. Kale and spinach are high in lutein and zeaxanthin, two nutrients found in the healthy eye that may lower your risk for age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Other vegetables with significant amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin include romaine lettuce, collards, turnip greens, broccoli and peas. And

while not leafy and green, eggs are also a good source of these nutrients. Citrus fruits. Oranges, tangerines, grapefruit and lemons are high in vitamin C, an antioxidant critical to eye health. Research shows that your eyes need relatively high levels of vitamin C to function properly, and antioxidants can prevent or at least delay cataracts and AMD. Lots of other foods offer vitamin C, including peaches, red peppers, tomatoes and strawberries. Beans. All kinds of beans (legumes), including black-eyed peas, kidney beans and lima beans, contain zinc, an essential trace mineral that is found in high concentration in the eyes. Zinc may help protect your eyes from the damaging effects of light. Did you know that peanuts are a legume too? Other foods high in zinc include oysters, lean red meat, poultry and fortified cereals. Cold-water fish. Research shows that diets rich in omega-3 fatty acid from cold-water fish may help reduce the
risk of developing eye disease later in life. These fish include salmon, tuna, sardines and halibut. • Orange-colored vegetables and fruits. Carrots are high in beta-carotene, a nutrient that helps with night vision, as are other orange-colored fruits and vegetables like sweet potatoes, apricots and cantaloupe. Making them a part of a colorful diet can help you keep your eyes healthy. • Nuts. Like almonds, cashews, pistachios and walnuts Researchers found lower rates of macular degeneration among people who ate more vegetables, legumes (beans), fish, cereals, and especially fruits. In fact, one study showed that people who ate at least 150 grams (just over 5 ounces) of fruits per day lowered their risk of developing AMD by 15 percent. Conversely, people who had AMD more frequently ate fast food, ready-made meals, dairy products and meat than those who did not have macular degeneration. Other past research has shown that certain vitamin and mineral supplements play
a role for some people in lowering their AMD risk. The studies examining specific diets help show that foods may also be protective in preventing vision loss from macular degeneration and highlight the possible vision-saving benefits of healthy daily eating habits. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a problem with your retina. It happens when a part of the retina called the macula is damaged. With AMD you lose your central vision. You cannot see fine details, whether you are looking at something close or far. But your peripheral (side) vision will still be normal. Many people don’t realize they have AMD until their vision is very blurry. This is why it is important to have regular visits to an ophthalmologist. He or she can look for early signs of AMD before you have any vision problems. Dr. Mark Siegel is the medical director at Sea Island Ophthalmology at 111 High Tide Drive (off Midtown Drive near Low Country Medical Group). Visit www.seaislandophthalmology.com.

The Effects of Mouth Breathing By Dr. Jennifer Wallace, Physiologic Dentist in Beaufort, SC
Breathing is an essential part of life. However, it’s such a natural part of life that most people don’t ever think about it. For instance, do you know whether your child breathes through their nose or their mouth? Most parents do not know the answer nor do they have any idea of the many health consequences mouth breathing can have on a child’s life. If your child is breathing through their mouth, it can affect their immune system, their posture, their ability to pay attention, their mood and even change their facial structure. Mouth breathing can impact how your child’s whole body develops as well as the condition of their health for the rest of their life. Dr. Jennifer Wallace uses her expertise from years of helping patients, clarifying orthodontic approaches and relating the bigger picture of what is happening to a child who is mouth breathing. What is Normal Breathing? Breathing through the mouth versus breathing through the nose has extremely different effects on the body. Human beings are not designed to breathe through their mouths. The mouth is designed for making sounds (communication) and for consuming food. At all other times, the mouth should naturally remain in a relaxed, but closed position. When a child is breathing normally, the breathing is silent, rhythmic and effortless. The optimal progression is: air is inhaled through the nose while the lips create a seal. The diaphragm pulls air deep into the lungs filling them completely. Then, it releases the air allowing the body to oxygenate. When the body is fully oxygenated, the nervous system can exist in a parasympathetic state, a relaxed state that is required for many bodily functions to occur. Normal breathing supports healthy facial development. Mouth breathing has wide-ranging consequences, from those that are annoying to those that are life-changing. Minor problems include chronically dry lips, mouth, and teeth (which increases the propensity for cavities). More often, however, mouth breathing leads to crooked teeth, an underdeveloped jaw and poor development of the face. When the mouth is left open to breathe, the muscles in the cheeks become taut. These taut cheek muscles apply an external force to the upper and lower jaw which creates a narrowing effect on the dental arches and the face. Also, the tongue, which is meant to rest on the roof of the mouth naturally, drops down into the floor of the mouth. This tongue position can cause the upper arch to become narrower (due to the lack of lateral pressure), and the mid-face will not develop normally because the tongue does not push this part of the face out. A child may end up with a narrow face or with mid-face deficiencies, the outcome determined by genes and other factors. Two studies in the American Journal of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics by dentist Egil Harvold illustrate this phenomenon quite clearly. In both stud-

ies, researchers plugged the noses of young monkeys forcing them to adapt by breathing through their mouths. They found that all the monkeys who were made to breathe through their mouth developed crooked teeth and poor jaw and facial development. Specifically, mouth-breathing led to “a lowering of the chin, a steeper mandibular plane angle, and an increase in the gonial angle.” In other words, the face became long and narrow, the jaw less prominent and the chin and the lower jaw retracted. Signs of a Mouth Breather • Snoring • Sleep apnea • Lack of concentration • Allergies • Sinus problems • Chronic sickness • Swollen tonsils and adenoids • “Allergic Shiners”- dark circles under the eyes • Long face The Impacts of Less Oxygen Mouth breathers also generally use the wrong body parts to breathe; they initiate breathing in the upper chest as opposed to the diaphragm. Because the body has to exert a great deal of energy to pull the ribs apart to inhale, breathing is labored. Air only fills the upper portion of the lungs and never wholly fulfills the body’s need for ox-
ygen. As a result, a chest-breather will take extra breaths or may develop a yawning habit. This task is the body’s way of taking in a large volume of air to make up for the oxygen deficit. This kind of breathing is often erratic, noisy or inconsistent and keeps the individual in a sympathetic nervous system state. This “fight or flight” rule does not support many of the biochemical and organ functions that require a relaxed nervous system: digestion, nutrient distribution, sleep, and hormonal patterns, growth, healing, recovery from exposure to environmental stressors and toxicity, mental acuity, mood modulation, and many others. Mouth breathing also dramatically affects a child’s mental development. Because children who breathe through their mouths are not fully oxygenated, they often do not rest well at night. When they wake up in the morning, usually they may be tired and find it difficult to maintain focus and attention and can even end up with a false diagnosis of ADD or ADHD. Structural Changes in the Body The body develops a forward head posture to compensate for developmental deficiencies from an abnormal breathing pattern. This improper posture, in turn, places undue and long-term stress on the neck, shoulder and cervical muscles, resulting in a chron-
ically tight neck as well as head and shoulder pain. The lower back also becomes arched in an attempt to counterbalance the weight of the head leading to weakness or pain in the lower back. And the adjustment of the body continues with gradual changes to the hips, knees, ankles, and feet as well as internal organs that depend on a normal alignment. Summary Mouth breathing is a topic almost no one discusses. Most accept it as being normal especially if a child has nasal congestion. Mouth breathing impacts many body systems, including facial development, the alignment of jaws, functioning of the body and posture, and one’s mental acuity. If you or your child breathe through the mouth, please seek help from your physiologic dentist, it can be life changing. Parents, do you find yourself asking these questions? • Why is my child restless during sleep? • Why does my child suffer from bedwetting? • Why can’t my child stay asleep all night? • Why does my child snore? • Why does my child sleep with his or her mouth open? • Why does my child hold their head in front of the shoulders? • Why does my child get frequent ear infections? • Why does my child have asthma? • Why does my child have allergies? • Why does my child have frequent sore throats? • Why does my child have bad breath? • Why does my child have cavities so often? • Why does my child have crooked teeth? • Why does my child grind his or her teeth? If you are not getting answers for these questions, it may be time to talk with Dr. Wallace. She is focused on whole-health dental care and practices physiologic dentistry in Beaufort. She sees patients all over the Lowcountry from Savannah to Columbia, Charleston and beyond.

FROM FISHING TO FOOTBALL, THE HARD WORK OF ATHLETES OF ALL AGES DESERVES RECOGNITION
Warriors wilt after quick start vs. Woodland
By Justin Jarrett
After watching his team sleepwalk through a win at Philip Simmons last week, Whale Branch coach Jerry Hatcher was anxious to see which team would show up for Friday’s Region 5-2A opener against Woodland. Well, the right team showed up, but it didn’t stick around. The Warriors raced out to a 13-0 lead, but the Wolverines responded with 27 unanswered points en route to a 27-13 victory that shifts the balance of power in a loaded region. “I’ll be honest, we’re just trying to get in the playoffs now,” said Hatcher, whose team travels to No. 2 Barn-
well next week and hosts fourth-ranked Bamberg-Ehrhardt on Oct. 19. The seventh-ranked Warriors certainly looked like a region contender early on, as the defense forced a threeand-out and CJ Brown hit Keith Bing for a 47-yard touchdown pass on Whale Branch’s first offensive series. After Jaheim Fripp stripped the ball away on the Wolverines’ next possession, Brown ran 8 yards for a touchdown and a 13-0 lead. But Woodland quarterback Taurean Singletary and the Wolverines’ defense controlled the rest of the night. Singletary spread the ball around to a bevy of receivers and broke two long touch-
down runs, including a 68yard sprint for the go-ahead score with 11:36 left in the second quarter. The Warriors (4-2, 0-1) hung around and trailed 2113 late in the third quarter when Brown broke free for another touchdown run that was called back on the 13th of Whale Branch’s 14 penalties. Brown was sacked on the next play, and the Warriors were forced to punt. After Singletary’s second touchdown run and with Brown on the sideline on crutches with ice on his ankle, Marion Smalls drove the Warriors into the red zone, but the Wolverines stopped them on fourth down and drove down the field to run
out the clock. Woodland kept star running back Irvin Mulligan in check, holding him to 78 yards on 15 carries and keeping him out of the end zone. With two more region games against top-five teams, the Warriors now find themselves in danger of playing for the No. 4 seed from the region and having to open the playoffs on the road against a region champion — an unenviable fate Hatcher prepared his team for in his postgame speech. “We’re in trouble now,” Hatcher said before adding, “I say that now, but by morning I’ll be fired up and think we can go beat Barnwell.”

SCHOOLS
County students perform well on exams
The South Carolina Department of Education recently released the results of 2018 statewide assessments for high school Endof-Course and Ready to Work (R2W) exams, and Beaufort County students improved their performance and exceeded state averages on End-of-Course exams and also exceeded state averages on R2W exams. South Carolina students’ scores on high school end-of-course exams count for 20 percent of final grades in Algebra 1, English 1, Biology and U.S. History and Constitution. Beaufort County School District students’ 2018 average scores improved on three of those four tests over the previous year. Scoring on Biology End-of-Course exams was realigned this year with new state academic standards, so those scores could not be compared with last year’s results. For the second straight year, the percentages of Beaufort County School District students with passing scores surpassed the state in all four subject areas. Here’s a look at average scores on individual End-of-Course exams for 2018. • Algebra I – The percentage passing increased to 79.6 compared to 77.5 last year (state passing percentage for 2018 was 68). • English I – The percentage passing increased to 84.8 compared to 81.4 last year (state passing percentage for 2018 was 80.8). • Biology – The district’s percentage passing was 72.6 compared to the state’s passing percentage of 67.4). Bi-
All of us – educators and students alike – have a lot of hard work ahead before we attain the achievement levels we want to see. I’m confident that we’ll get there together. BONNIE ALMOND Chief Instructional Services Officer, Beaufort County School District
ology scoring was rescaled in 2018, so exam scores could not be compared with 2017. • U.S. History and Constitution – The percentage passing increased to 75.5 compared to 73.4 in 2017 (state passing percentage for 2018 was 71.1). “We’re always encouraged when our students improve, and that was the case this year on End-of-Course Exams,” said Bonnie Almond, the school district’s Chief Instructional Services Officer. “But we don’t want to downplay the challenges we face. All of us – educators and students alike – have a lot of hard work ahead before we attain the achievement levels we want to see. I’m confident that we’ll get there together.” South Carolina also requires all 11th-graders to take exams each spring that let them earn qualifying scores for “portable” certificates that students can use to qualify for good-paying jobs anywhere in the nation. More than 51,000 South Carolina 11th-graders – and 1,475 11th-graders in the Beaufort County School District – took
2018 R2W exams to qualify for Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum certificates. In Beaufort County, 64.3 percent of 11th-graders earned Silver or higher (compared to 63.3 percent statewide), indicating they already have the skills necessary for two-thirds of profiled jobs; 7.1 percent scored Gold (compared to 6.8 percent statewide), indicating they are already equipped with the skills for 90 percent of jobs; and 2.3 percent scored at the Platinum level (compared to 2.5 percent statewide), indicating they are ready for virtually any job in the workforce. District Career and Technology Education Director Karen Gilbert said many businesses across the nation now use Ready-to-Work certificates as prescreening tools for job applicants. She added that many employers recognize, recommend or require certificates as part of their hiring criteria. In South Carolina alone, more than 250 employers recognize the certificates. “A business can use this skills assessment system no matter where it’s located,” Gilbert said. “It’s also a plus for our students because
they can pinpoint the skills they need to build if they hope to land good-paying jobs.” R2W exams measure Applied Mathematics (problem-solving skills ranging from basic addition, subtraction, and multiplication and division to multiple math functions like calculating percentage discounts); Reading for Information (comprehension and reasoning skills when using written text on the job, including memos, letters, directions, signs, notices, bulletins, policies and regulations); and Locating Information (comprehension and application of workplace graphics such as charts, graphs, tables, forms, flowcharts, diagrams, floor plans, maps and instrument gauges). In addition, R2W exams measure “Soft Skills” such as resolving conflict, solving problems, setting goals and making decisions. The assessment items require students to choose two answers for each question – the “best” and “worst” answers for handling each situation. The Department of Education reported the percentages of 11th-graders passing the “Soft Skills” section. In Beaufort County, 76.1 percent of 11th-graders passed that section of the exam compared to 76.9 percent statewide. The mismatch between the skills required for most jobs and the skills of the U.S. workforce is having a significant impact on productivity and revenue across all businesses and industries. Employers need reliable ways to measure foundational skills to ensure that they are hiring the most qualified, trainable candidates.
BA students will have chance to visit sister school in China Beaufort Academy has teamed up with K&G English Training School in Yuxi, a city in Yunnan, China, for a sister-school partnership that will allow BA students to travel and explore a new part of the world and build valuable relationships with Chinese students. BA students will be connected with students as pen pals from Yunnan Province, and then will be able to meet them in person and stay with them during a trip planned for May 2019.
All BA students in grades 8-12 will have the opportunity to travel to China for 10 days in a unique way. BA International Studies teacher Steve Aldred and his wife, Lillian, lived in China for numerous years, and will spearhead this trip while showing students China from a local's point of view. The group will spend 5-6 days in Imperial Beijing, where they can experience all the sights, sounds and tastes of a large Asian city, before traveling to quiet Yunnan in the southwest of China for 3-4 days.

Beaufort High School student, Alan Wiser, among four in Beaufort County named 2018 National Merit semifinalists Four Beaufort County School District students have been announced as finalists in the National Merit Scholarship Program. Named as semifinalists were Pierce Daly (Hilton Head Island High); Meaghan Lyons (Hilton Head Island High); Faith Shupard (May River High); and Alan Wiser (Beaufort High). They will compete with other national semifinalists for 7,500 college scholarships worth more than $31 million. “We’re very proud of these four wonderful students,” said Interim Superintendent Herb Berg. “They are excellent representatives of their schools and the entire district, and we’re confident they will perform well in the next stages of the national competition.” About 1.6 million high school juniors from more than 22,000 American high schools entered the 2018 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. About 16,000 semifinalists
were announced Tuesday. To become a finalist in the next stage of the national competition, each semifinalist and his or her high school must now submit a detailed application that provides Alan Wiser information about the student’s academic record, participation in school and community activities, leadership abilities, honors and awards. In addition, each semifinalist must be endorsed and recommended by an official from their high school, write an essay and earn SAT scores that confirm the student’s earlier score on the qualifying test. The National Merit Scholarship Corp. is a nonprofit established in 1955, and its scholarships are underwritten by NMSC with its own funds and more than 400 businesses and higher education institutions.

USCB Center for the Arts ready to rock in October The Center for the Arts will be rockin’ and rollin’ in October with John Mueller’s “Winter Dance Party” on Oct. 5 and “Ain’t Misbehavin’” on Oct. 12. “Winter Dance Party” is the official live and authentic re-creation of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper's final tour and the only show endorsed by the Holly, Valens and Richardson estates. The 7:30 p.m. concert performance includes over two hours of unbridled, high-voltage entertainment featuring all the hit songs of the 50's era: “That'll Be The Day,” “Peggy Sue,” “Oh, Boy,” “Rave On,” “La Bamba,” “Chantilly Lace,” and many more. Mueller, the critically-acclaimed former star of the U.S. touring version of the London/Broadway hit musical "Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story," performs as Buddy Holly and Linwood Sasser fills the legend-
ary footsteps of the Big Bopper. Ray Anthony performs as Ritchie Valens and is a renowned star of the "Legends of Rock and Roll" show at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas. The authentic and energetic four-piece band (guitar, drums, stand up bass and sax) includes Grammy-winning Mike Acosta on saxophone. When “Ain’t Misbehavin’” opened on Broadway, it made history by winning every Tony award, including best musical. Reviewer Clive Barnes predicted “Ain’t Misbehavin’” would be “a joyous celebration that is going to cross the world.” Well, that time is now, with an exciting new production of this award-winning musical coming to the Center for the Arts on Friday, Oct. 12 at 7:30 p.m. “Ain’t Misbehavin’” encompasses 30 show-stopping musical numbers that take you on a journey not only through the Fats
Waller song book, but through Harlem in its heyday. With snazzy period costumes, complete with bowlers and spats and ermine and pearls, the dynamic five-member cast turns the theatre into a rollicking rent party. You don’t have to be a jazz buff to enjoy “Ain’t Misbehavin,’” like Fats Waller himself you just have to love a good time. The cast brings audience members onto the stage to dance, sing and have a good time. This fastpaced romp takes you where the high-steppers partied, from honky-tonk dives to the Cotton Club, from Tin Pan Alley to The Waldorf. It’s a night of entertainment you won’t soon forget. Tickets are available online at uscbcenterforthearts.com or at the box office at 843521-4145. Ticket prices are $35 for adults, $30 for seniors and military, and $15 for students.
COME SAVE A LIFE AT PALMETTO ANIMAL LEAGUE
For the first time in history, animal shelters and rescues across South Carolina are joining together to hold “Pick Me SC,” a statewide adoption event from Oct. 5-7. This massive lifesaving mission is sponsored by the Petco Foundation and organized by No Kill South Carolina. Shelters
throughout the state are participating, including Palmetto Animal League (PAL) in Okatie. Area residents can be a part of this adoption event from noon to 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct, 5, and Saturday, Oct. 6, by visiting PAL's Adoption Center. During “Pick Me
Beaufort History Museum lecture re-scheduled for Oct. 9 Beaufort History Museum, in partnership with the Beaufort County Library, will present a lecture on the Yamasee Indians and Altamaha Town by noted authority and archaeologist Dr. Eric Poplin. The lecture was postponed by Hurricane Florence and rescheduled for 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 9, at the Beaufort Branch Library, located at 311 Scott Street. The Yamasee Indians, a multiethnic conglomeration of Native Americans, lived along the lower coastal plain of South Carolina between 1683 and 1715. Altamaha Town, the capital of their settlements, was occupied as early as 1685 until it was abandoned during the Yamasee War. More than 60,000 artifacts were recovered from the site. Poplin will discuss the history of the tribe and life in
the village during his presentation. Admission to the lecture is free. A donation of $5 is suggested and reservations are required. To sign up, visit the BHM website at www.beauforthistorymuseum.com. Please print out the ticket and bring to the event. Please note that this presentation was originally planned to take place in September but was rescheduled due to the hurricane evacuation order. Those who had reservations for that lecture must reschedule. Those with tickets will be admitted first. Funds collected will be used to support ongoing Museum programs and the ongoing renovation of the Exhibit Hall currently underway. Phase I of the renovation was recently unveiled and Phase II is slated for completion late in 2019.

Shellfish season is upon us The 2018-19 season for recreational harvest of shellfish (clams, oysters, mussels and other bivalves) in coastal waters of South Carolina opened Monday and will remain open through May 15, unless conditions warrant extending or shortening the season. In the event of another hurricane, major rain event, or pollution spill, shellfish beds may be temporarily closed by the South Carolina Department of Health & Environmental Control (DHEC). It is important for harvesters to check with DHEC to verify whether any closures are in effect. This information is available at 1-800-285-1618 and can be viewed on an interactive map at the DHEC website. DHEC will use these resources and your local newspaper throughout the year to announce temporary closures due to unusual rain events or spills. The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR) maintains State Shellfish Grounds for commercial and recreational harvesting of clams and oysters. Twenty Public Shellfish Grounds and 13 State Shellfish Grounds are managed exclusively for recreational gathering. An additional 53 State Shellfish Grounds are managed for recreational and commercial harvest. All state-managed grounds are posted with boundary signs. Areas designated as Shellfish Culture permits are privately managed and cannot be recreationally harvested unless the harvester has written permission from the permit holder in their possession. Recreational harvesters should obtain updated Public or State Shellfish Ground maps at the beginning of each season, as areas open to harvest change from year to year. Maps of designated harvest areas may be downloaded from the SCDNR website or accessed online through the Recreational Map Web Application. Printed maps may also be obtained by calling 843-953-9854 or writing the Shellfish Management Section, Attn: Ben Dyar, SCDNR, PO Box 12559, Charleston, SC 294222559. When requesting maps, please specify the general area where you wish to harvest. Maps for the 2018-19 season will be available prior to season opening on Oct. 1, 2018.

Recreational harvesters must have a Saltwater Recreational Fishing License, available from SCDNR, at many fishing supply stores, and online. The recreational limit is two U.S. bushels of oysters and one-half bushel of clams in any one day, limited to two calendar days per seven-day period. There is a maximum possession of three personal limits per boat or vehicle. Clams must be at least 1 inch in thickness. Additional rules and restrictions may be found in the SCDNR Rules and Regulations, available where licenses are purchased or online. Commercial harvest of shellfish requires a commercial saltwater license, mandatory harvester training, and other licenses and permits depending on where the harvest will occur. Call the Marine Permitting Office at (843) 953-0453 for additional information on commercial harvesting requirements. All harvesters are encouraged to "cull in place," leaving dead shell and smaller oysters on the shoreline where they will continue to grow and provide habitat for future generations of oysters. Oyster consumers are encouraged to recycle their shells. Check online or call 843-953-9397 to find locations near you where shell can be dropped off for recycling. SCDNR uses saltwater recreational fishing license revenues to construct and enhance renewable oyster resources in the coastal counties by replanting recycled shell. All shell collected by the SCDNR is used to restore shellfish grounds in coastal South Carolina.

Sometimes it can be a lot of fun to really know what a name means, especially if it’s a wine name and you can be tasting the wine while you play with its name. Many wine names have become fun and entertaining over recent years. This week, it’s not a new made-up name like some, but a thought-out, almost traditional name that was created for a new wine when it was born. Our wine this week comes from Bordeaux, from a very well-known and highly-regarded parent. In 1930, Château Mouton-Rothschild, after generations of being a great red Bordeaux, Mouton-Rothschild had a vintage that was not up to its par. Rather than make a wine labeled as his château wine that could really hurt their reputation, owner Baron Philippe de Rothschild made up a new name, Mouton Cadet, and produced a new red wine from several grape varieties from several appellations. He priced it much lower and chose the name “cadet” because it meant “young” and he was the youngest son in his family. The new wine, as non-traditional as it was, was successful. Initially, it was made from grapes sourced from vineyards near the Château, in the Pauillac commune. Its appellation was “Pauillac,” like the Château wine. As demand grew for Cadet, grapes were sourced from other communes in Bordeaux, like Saint-Estephe and HautMédoc. Production of Cadet stopped during World War II, but was resumed afterward, and in 1947 it was granted AC “Bordeaux” appellation status. During the 1950s and 1960s, the wine was exported to England and the United States. A white was introduced in the 1970s. In
1975, sales topped 3 million bottles. Continued growth and success followed and, in 2007, the Le Rosé de Mouton Cadet was introduced. The current vintage rosé is a blend of 51% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon and Celia Strong 43% Cabernet Franc. With a Bordeaux appellation. Its grapes come from several parts of the Bordeaux region, including Médoc, Entre-Deux-Mers, and Côte de Bourg. Some of the grapes are pressed and the juice is macerated and allowed to run off the skins. This is the saignée method, used for color and tannic structure. Other grapes are pressed and fermented for fruit flavors. How much of which method depends on the selected grapes of each vintage. The rosé always uses predominantly Merlot to achieve its intense red fruit flavors – red cherries, red raspberries, red plums, currants and strawberries. Cabernet Sauvignon is used for structure and power. And the Cabernet Franc brings elegance and refinement. Beyond its intense red fruitiness, the aromas and flavors of this wine include sage, tarragon, lemon zest, gooseberries, pink grapefruits, mint and hints of spiciness. The finished, blended wine is a shiny coral pink. It is light- to medium-bodied with a succulent texture and a crisp, minerally finish. Obviously a great apéritif wine, but it pairs well with seafood and shellfish, salads, mild cheeses, Asian meals and more. For $9.99. Enjoy. Celia Strong works at Bill’s Liquor & Fine Wines on Lady’s Island.
WRITE THE CHECK Now what?
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.
My husband and I met a woman recently who was telling us about all the organizations she and her husband volunteer for since they moved to the Lowcountry. Her husband helped with Second Helpings and had worked on two houses for Habitat for Humanity, and she too was involved with various non-profits. After she left I told my husband how impressed I was with their volunteer contributions and my husband said, “We write checks.” That is true. Although we have volunteered with many non-profits throughout the years, we have not been as active lately. For years I put in many hours with the American Lung Association along with the Allergy and Asthma Foundation because of my son’s asthma. Then, as a banker, I was encouraged to serve on boards for non-profit organizations, volunteer for committees, and attend fundraising events. In addition, both my husband and I volunteered our time with other organizations we believed in and wanted to support. But now we are in the season of writing checks, which, I assured my spouse, was perfectly acceptable. Because as far as I know, most non-profits love the checks as much as they love all the volunteers. It was then that I started to think about other groups besides non-profits that need our checks. The retail establishments, the restaurants, the hardware stores, and all

those other businesses look to us citizens for support. They employ people and pay rent to landlords. Their presence and products add to the charm of Beaufort. So, keeping this thought in mind, my friend Christine and I went downtown after Hurricane Florence to help our Beaufort merchants. Although all of us were relieved the storm did not hit us, the store owners got hit anyway – financially. It was a good time to spend money here in Beaufort instead of online. As we walked into different shops we found that everyone was very appreciative we were there and commented about the economic hit. We were pleased to see so many other people strolling around with shopping bags. There was an air of festivity as we walked around Beaufort greeting neighbors we knew who had the same thought about spending money. It was also a Marine graduation day, so the restaurants were full of visiting families helping to boost sales. Yes, the volunteers in our community are very important. They provide numerous hours of unpaid service to many organizations. But it does not undermine the need for cash donations. That is appreciated, too. As for the businesses downtown, they loved it when I asked, “Do you take a check?” And just like all the non-profits they said, “We love checks.”

Exchange Club hosts 26th annual Ghost Tours
Ghostly spirits are expected to take over downtown Beaufort while the Exchange Club hosts its 26th annual Ghost Tours beginning Friday, Oct. 12. Sign up now to take a carriage ride or walking tour through Beaufort’s Historic District while listening to haunting tales of the area. Tours last about an hour and will run in the evenings of Oct. 12-13, 19-21, 26-28, and 30. All proceeds benefit the Child Abuse Prevention Association (CAPA) of Beaufort County. Some of Beaufort’s oldest residents have shared stories from their childhood and the Exchange Club of Beaufort brings these stories to life each October. Costumed storytellers spellbind tour participants with the ghostly happenings while traveling the Spanish mosslined streets of downtown. The oldest ghost in America is said to live in “The Castle,” a 19th century renovated estate located on the river in downtown Beaufort. Beware, ghostly visions have been known to appear on past tours. Walking tour tickets are $12 for all ages and carriage tours are $12 for children ages 3-11 and $22 for adults. All children must be accompanied by an adult. A pet- and stroller-friendly walking tour leaves each night at 7 p.m. Reservations are strongly recommended and can be made online at www.capabeaufort.org or by calling 843-52-GHOST.
