COVERING BEAUFORT COUNTY

Fight, handgun put Beaufort High put on lockdown By Mike McCombs Beaufort High School was on lockdown Tuesday morning as a result of an altercation in the parking lot resulting in the discovery of a handgun on campus. At approximately 10:30 a.m., City of Beaufort Police say a bystander intervened in a fight between 22-year-old De-Quarious Major, of St. Helena, and a relative.

According to the police, Major was driven to the campus by another relative and the fight occurred in the parking lot near the car in which he had been a passenger. The bystander attempting to break up the fight saw a handgun inside the car and retrieved it to keep it from being used. Beaufort High Student Resource Officer Eric Hayes arrived on the

scene and attempted to detain Major, who became agitated and refused to comply with lawful directions to submit to being detained, at which time Officer Hayes drew his Taser and ordered Major to the ground. Major complied and was taken into custody without further incident. Major was arrested and charged with Disturbing Schools, Possession

of a Firearm on School Property and Interfering with an Officer. Major was transported to the Beaufort County Detention Center, where, as of Tuesday evening, he was awaiting a bond hearing. According to the 14th Circuit Public Court Index, at the time of the incident, Major was out of jail on bond for murder and three counts of attempted murder from the June 3,

Food Truck Festival returns Saturday in Port Royal

ucculent shrimp, ice cold beer, rocking music, perfect weather and lots of smiling faces – all the essential ingredients for a great Lowcountry weekend were in abundance at the 2021 Beaufort Shrimp Festival. Community festivals are beloved by locals and visitors alike. They foster the hospitable hometown feeling we all love about living here, and they leave guests with warm memories and a thirst to visit again soon. Anyone who visited Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park last Friday or Saturday saw evidence of a hugely successful event. But they might not appreciate the hard work and teamwork that made it possible.

By Mike McCombs The Lowcountry Jaycees are hosting the 4th annual Beaufort Food Truck Festival from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 9 on Paris Avenue in Port Royal. “I’m excited for it, looking forward to the best festival we’ve had yet,” Lowcountry Jaycees President Nicklas Mayrand said. The festival is free and open to the public. A dozen food trucks will be on site providing a variety of delicious dining options. There will be live music from local musicians, a kid zone, a petting zoo and an area to participate in a variety of games for the whole family. For the first time, there will also be a beer tent. The biggest changes for this year’s festival, however, are location and extended hours. Mayrand said the change in location just made sense. Now that Beaufort Town Center is loaded with new businesses, it didn’t make sense to tie up all of their parking for a Saturday. And he said Port Royal’s Parris Avenue, between 10th and 6th streets, is perfect for this type of event. And the extended hours means

Beaufort County Board of Education votes against requiring masks

By Mike McCombs Just two days after a U.S. District Judge placed a temporary restraining order, preventing the enforcement of a South Carolina law preventing individual school districts from requiring masks, the Beaufort County Board of Education voted 4-5-1 at an emergency meeting Thursday night, Sept. 30, against requiring Beaufort County School District students to wear masks.

The “no” votes came from Christina Gwozdz, Tricia Fidrych, Rachel Wisnefski, Richard Geier and Angela MiddlePatricia ton. Fidrych Ingrid Boatright abstained from the vote, saying she still wasn’t sure where the district stood legally. Several board members

An open letter to Campsen, Erickson

Dear S.C. Senator Chip Campsen and S.C. House member Shannon Erickson, I have heard rumblings that some S.C. legislators have talked about

seeking a "forensic" audit of the 2020 election – where their Republican candidate WON the state!? I want you both to know that if such insanity in support of "the lie" went forth, I would strongly support legal action to thwart

such insanity. Spending a cent on such an endeavor would not be acceptable and would slander the good efforts of our election officials who conducted an election with integrity. Likewise any talk of adopting election rules that could be inter-

who were struggling and showed us that there’s nothing we can’t make it through when we come together. While the problems our neighbors face are both old and new, the pandemic has only amplified them – which is why community support for United Way is needed now more than ever.” United Way supports 38 health and human services programs at 23 vetted partner agencies in Beaufort and Jasper counties. Through this support, more than 149,000 Lowcountry residents were assisted in the past year, many who had never needed or requested help before.

Just as funds are raised locally, United Way funds stay local; supporting services focused on basic needs, education, economic mobility and health. The opportunity to participate in this year’s campaign will continue through the end of the year.

Queen Quet awarded Order of the Palmetto

From staff reports On Wednesday, Sept. 29, in Columbia, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster presented Queen Quet, Chieftess of the Gullah/ Geechee Nation, with the Order of the Palmetto, the State of South Carolina’s highest civilian honor presented in recognition of a lifetime of extraordinary achievement, service and contributions on a national or statewide scale. Queen Quet, a native of St. Helena Island, has received approximately 300 awards and honors over the years and sees this one as not only for her, but for the entire Gullah/Geechee Nation especially for her

ancestors that built South Carolina through their knowledge and skills. “Disya award sweet as a Gullah/Geechee Palmetto rose,” Queen Quet said in a release. Gov. McMaster recognized the work that Queen Quet has done globally to insure the continuation of the Gullah/Geechee culture and the Gullah language and Geechee dialect. Gov. McMaster made it clear that Queen Quet will continue to do this work, and that without roots, there is no nation. Queen Quet originated a statement that is the slogan of her organization which guides the work that she

does consistently – "Hunnuh mus tek cyare de root fa heal de tree!" Believing it is divinely ordered that she now holds such a high honor bearing the South Carolina state tree, she said she will hang it on the wall next to the Gullah/Geechee Nation's flag, which also is embossed with a tree, so that the trees can stay rooted together, holding the land and culture of the Gullah/Geechee in place in her home state. To learn more about the work Queen Quet does on a daily basis via the Gullah/Geechee Sea Island Coalition, visit www.GullahGeecheeLand.com and www.GullahGeechee.net.

Beaufort High, its Class of 71 to celebrate 50 years From staff reports A little more than 50 years ago, mass integration took place in Beaufort County as the three local high schools – Beaufort High, Robert Smalls High and St. Helena High – were merged. Taking the name of Beaufort High, the mascot of St. Helena and the school colors of Robert Smalls, a new school was cre-

ated at the Mossy Oaks Road location. In addition to creating the new school, a new school song was written for the Beaufort High Eagles, which is still sung today. The Class of 1971 was the first graduating class of the integrated Beaufort High School with 552 seniors marching across the football

field on June 1, 1971. To celebrate the Golden Anniversary of the school as well as the class, the weekend of Oct. 1516, former students from various parts of the country will converge at their alma mater to celebrate that history-making year. To celebrate this Golden Anniversary, several events have been planned.

A Meet and Greet (free to all Class of 1971 Beaufort High graduates) will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., Friday, Oct. 15, in the Beaufort High School cafeteria at 84 Sea Island Pkwy, Beaufort. Parking is available in the rear of the building near the cafeteria entrance from 5 to 5:30 p.m., and food trucks will be in that parking area.

Following the Meet and Greet, the Beaufort High School Eagles vs May River High School football game will take place at 7:30 p.m. where the history making Class of 1971 will take to the field to be honored during the halftime festivities. Game tickets are $7 and can be purchased in advance online or at the gate.

The Golden Anniversary celebration will conclude Saturday evening, Oct. 16, with a buffet Reunion Banquet at Traditions on Parris Island. For more information, contact D. Jeanelle Drake, Reunion Communications Team, Beaufort High School Class of 1971 at 313-303-2449 or BHS1971Reunion45@ gmail.com.

Some board members, including Patricia Fidrych, were of the opinion that 90 to 95 percent of students and staff member of schools visited were already masking up and saw no need for a mandate.

Masks

from page A1 ucation in August entertained a motion to require masks, despite the budget proviso prohibiting mask mandates, but that motion was tabled until the S.C. Supreme Court ruled on Richland County’s challenge to the law after a contentious follow-up meeting Aug. 23 that saw more than 60 public comments on both sides of the mask issue. On Tuesday, Sept. 28, U.S. District Judge Mary Geiger Lewis ruled that South Carolina’s budget provision prohibiting schools from imposing

mask mandates for students and teachers discriminates against students with disabilities in violation of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Lewis affirmed in her decision that “No one can reasonably argue that it is an undue burden to wear a mask to accommodate a child with disabilities.” “Years ago, ramps were added to schools to accommodate those with mobility-related disabilities so they could access a free public education,” she added. “Today, a mask mandate works as a sort of ramp to allow children with disabilities access to their

schools. Thus, the same legal authority requiring schools to have ramps requires that school districts have the option to compel people to wear masks at school.” Lewis’ ruling supercedes that of the S.C.

“The disturbance at Beaufort High is under control, there was no threat to any students and the incident was limited to the parking lot,” the statement read. “The school was in a brief lock down, which is in the process of being lifted. More details will follow.” At 11:35 a.m., Beaufort

County School District Communications Director Candace Bruder-Brasseur confirmed the weapon was secured, law enforcement was on site and the lock down has been lifted.

to posts on the event’s Facebook page, this year’s festival set records with more than 5,000 people in attendance and more than 500 in Friday’s 5K ad walk. Records or not, though, given that last year’s event was one of the many casualties of the COVID-19 pandemic, it would be hard to argue that this year’s event wasn’t a smash. “It felt great to get back out there,” Murray said. “It felt normal.” Murray gave credit to the Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce, the Beaufort Area Hospitality Association, the S.C. Shrimpers Association and the Sea Island Rotary Club, as well as an army of volunteers. He also complimented the City of Beaufort’s team of “pros.” “(Director of Downtown Operations) Linda Roper and the downtown operations crew, they know what they’re doing,” Murray said. “They are seasoned events professionals.

Spinach reduces colon cancer risk: Study explores how

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Some skin cancers aside, it is also the third most common cancer in both men and women. Colorectal cancer encompasses colon cancer and rectal cancer. The colon and rectum are both parts of the large intestine. Previous research has established that eating spinach can reduce the risk of colon cancer by as much as half. A new study from the TAMU (Texas A&M University) Health Science Center in College Station, reaffirms the anticancer properties of spinach and investigates how the vegetable interacts with gut bacteria and genetics to achieve its beneficial effects. Spinach inhibits the growth of colon polyps. Of all colorectal cancer cases, the hereditary familial type accounts for only 10–15%. Furthermore, only 5–10% of polyps develop into colorectal cancer. The TAMU researchers had previously confirmed the ability of spinach to repress the development of

polyps in rats that had an induced form of cancer similar to humans’ nongenetic, or “sporadic,” colorectal cancer. About 85–90% of colorectal cancer cases are sporadic. The new study looks at the value of spinach for people with a hereditary form of colorectal cancer called familial adenomatous polyposis. The study appears in the journal Gut Microbes. Familial adenomatous pol-

yposis leads to the growth of multiple, sometimes hundreds, of noncancerous colon polyps. Most people with the condition eventually require surgery to remove the colon, after which they will use potentially toxic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to keep polyps from growing in the duodenum. To understand why spinach was so effective in

slowing polyp growth, the researchers utilized a data-driven methodology called multi-omics, which is growing in popularity. Multi-omics analyzes data from different systems in the body, looking for associations that can suggest potential areas of research. The “omics” part of multi-omics refers to the ending “ome” in the names of such systems.

In the current study, the researchers analyzed samples from three systems: • the microbiome — beneficial and harmful gut microbes • the transcriptome — the collection of RNA and mRNA that cells or tissue express • the metabolome — metabolites that cells produce during metabolic activity Senior investigator Dr. Roderick Dashwood describes the surprising result of the team’s analysis: “My bias was to focus on the chlorophyll story because of my long history examining anticancer effects of chlorophyll. But it turned out the multi-omics approach prompted other ideas.” Regarding whether people should start consuming spinach as a preventive measure against the development of colon cancer, Dr. Dashwood advises: “The sooner, the better.” Says Dr. Dashwood, “You shouldn’t wait until polyps arise in order to start to do these sorts of preventive things.” Spinach offers plenty of health benefits in any event, as cardiology dietitian Michelle Routhenstein, who is

the owner of Entirely Nourished and was not involved in this study. “Spinach contains several nutrients that help protect your heart health. Spinach is a rich source of vitamin K1, which has been shown to help reduce the risk of cardiomegaly. Spinach is also naturally rich in glutathione, which helps boost the master antioxidant pathway in the body, [helping] address oxidative stress and support immune function.” Routhenstein continued: “Spinach also contains folate, which is one of the vitamins needed to lower homocysteine levels in the body—high homocysteine levels lead to promotion of plaque in the arteries. Folate-rich foods have also been shown to lower uric acid levels by inhibiting purine formation.” The bottom line, said Dr. Dorrestein, is that “Current science is suggesting sugary food and drinks promote cancer, while more fruit and vegetable consumption is associated with negative risks.” For additional study information, visit https://www. medicalnewstoday.com/articles/spinach-reduces-coloncancer-risk-study-exploreshow?

parentPULSE© Eyeglasses for students boost academic performance, raise test scores

In what may be the largest clinical study ever conducted in the United States of the impact of glasses on classroom performance, Johns Hopkins researchers report that students who received eyeglasses through a schoolbased program scored higher on reading and math tests. The findings, they say, could lead to improved learning for millions of children who suffer from vision impairment and lack access to pediatric eye care. The study was published Sept. 9, 2021, in JAMA Ophthalmology. “We rigorously demonstrated that giving kids the glasses they need helps them succeed in school,” says study senior author Megan Collins, M.D.,

M.P.H., a pediatric ophthalmologist at the Johns Hopkins Wilmer Eye Institute at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, associate faculty at the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics, and co-director of the Johns Hopkins Consortium for School-Based Health Solutions. Conducted from 2016 to 2019, the three-year clinical study by Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers linked access to eyeglasses with higher test scores, especially for students having the most trouble in school. The trial analyzed the performance of 2,304 students in third through seventh grades who received screenings, eye examinations and eyeglasses through a vision

program. The research team studied the students’ scores on standardized reading and math tests, measuring both one-year and two-year impacts. Reading scores increased significantly after one year for students who received glasses, compared with students who got them later. There also was significant improvement in math for elementary school students. The researchers found particularly striking improvements for girls, special education students and students who had previously been among the lowest performing. “The glasses offered the biggest benefit to the very kids who needed it the most—the ones who were really strug-

gling in school,” Collins says. The academic improvements seen after one year were not sustained over two years. The researchers suspect this could be a result of students wearing their glasses less over time, possibly due to losing or breaking them. To maintain the academic achievement seen after the first year, the researchers say that—in addition to providing the initial exams and glasses— school-based vision programs should develop stronger efforts to make sure children are wearing the glasses received and replace them if needed.

and breadth of the almost two-year old formal affiliation with the state’s most advanced and innovative genetic center was an easy choice. With recent and rapid growth in the understanding of how genetics impacts health throughout the lifespan, access to genetic information is increasingly important for individuals to make informed healthcare and lifestyle decisions. With a primary goal of improving access for patients and

their families, this expanded relationship between GGC and MUSC aims to leverage both organizations’ strengths and expertise. Together they will provide high-quality care and access to the latest technological advances in diagnostics, research, and treatment. In the interest of better serving these needs, the expanded goals of the relationship include: • Co-developing a strategic plan for genetic services. • Continuing to increase access to clinical genetic services for MUSC patients and all South Carolinians. • Building on collaborative telehealth platforms to improve wait times for ap-

Cost-effective and eco-friendly home improvements

Homeowners take on projects to improve their homes for a variety of reasons. Some may do so to make a home more functional, while others may do so to improve their home's resale value. Some homeowners take on a home improvement project to make their homes more eco-friendly. Such projects are often mistakenly assumed to be costly undertakings, but there are several cost-effective ways to make a home more eco-friendly. • Upgrade your appliances. A home improvement project does not have to require the use of a hammer and nails or the hiring of a contractor. A simple home improvement project like upgrading older appliances, including the washer and dryer, to newer, more efficient models can give a home a fresh look while reducing energy consumption. That reduction in energy consumption is a byproduct of the stricter standards placed on manufacturers who must adhere to guidelines to produce products that are more energy-efficient. For

Installing high-efficiency water fixtures, including a low-flow showerhead, is an affordable and eco-friendly home improvement project. example, the Natural Resources Defense Council notes that today's energy-efficient refrigerators will use less than half the energy of models made as recently as 15 years ago. • Add more insulation.

Adding more insulation or replacing older insulation used to be an especially laborious process. However, in many instances insulation can now be added or upgraded to a home without any

major reconstruction or demolition, reducing the cost of the project considerably. Adding more insulation to a home can reduce energy consumption in the winter, and allow you to keep the thermostat at a more reasonable number. • Install high-efficiency water fixtures. Few people think about how much water they consume over the course of a typical day, but the figures might be eye-opening to those who hope to adopt a more eco-friendly lifestyle. According to the United States Geological Survey's Water Science School, it's generally accepted that the average person uses between 80 and 100 gallons of water each day. Showers seem to be especially wasteful, as older shower heads might be using as much as 5 gallons per minute, or 50 gallons of water during

a 10-minute shower. Older fixtures that consume such massive amounts of water can be easily and affordably replaced with newer, more efficient fixtures. Today's high-efficiency low-flow showerheads can provide a strong shower stream while reducing water consumption. Such showerheads are also less taxing on your water heater, reducing your energy consumption as a result. Homeowners can also install high-efficiency toilets that use as little as 1.3 gallons of water per flush (compared to older models that consumed as many as 5 gallons per flush). The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that installing water-efficient fixtures and appliances would save more than 3 trillion gallons of water and more than $18 billion annually. • Install a programmable

thermostat. Programmable thermostats present another affordable way to improve a home and benefit the environment. Many of today's programmable thermostats can record personal preferences and usage and determine the best course of action for heating and cooling your home. Temperatures can be adjusted room-byroom, and the programmable thermostat allows homeowners to control their heating and cooling while they're out of the house, ensuring they're not paying to heat or cool an empty house and wasting energy in doing so. Home improvement projects don't have to be a grand undertaking, particularly when a homeowner's goal is to make a home more eco-friendly. A few minor and affordable changes may be all it takes to improve a home and benefit the environment at the same time.

Battery Creek teacher named District Teacher of the Year

By Mike McCombs Battery Creek High School biology teacher Aimee Whitesell was named Beaufort County’s 2021-2022 District Teacher of the Year on Friday, Oct. 1 at a breakfast honoring teachers of the year from all of the district’s schools. Whitesell was aware winning was a possibility. That’s why she went through the process – she was nominated by coworkers, wrote numerous essays and filled out an extensive application form and submitted it. And she hoped. Still, she was surprised. “I really was shocked when they announced,” Whitesell said. “Very humbled, too. It was pretty spectacular.” Battery Creek High School Principal Denise Lessard said in a district release that Whitesell’s students are authentically engaged during her classes and are empowered to direct their own learning. “Building relationships and serving as a role model are her two strengths which enable her to make a profound impact on the daily lives of students and enhance our school culture,” Lessard said. The four other finalists were Hilton Head Island High School’s Oana Bejan, Hilton Head Island Middle School’s Ann Buckley, Mossy Oaks Elementary School’s Christopher Crabb and H.E. McCracken Middle School’s Lynne Sunday. Despite the win, Whitesell said Friday was pretty much a normal day for her.

TCL hosting Shorts at High Noon From staff reports Shorts at High Noon, the collaboration between the Beaufort Film Society and the Technical College of the Lowcountry (TCL), runs through November 17. Screenings are from noon to 1 p.m. every Wednesday at TCL’s Beaufort campus and are free and open to the public. Check-in is at 11:30 a.m. Masks are required. All films were featured at the 2021 Beaufort International Film Festival. Next week’s screenings include Dirty Little Secrets (a 14-minute short feature), For Your Consideration (a 14-minute short feature) and Monarch Butterfly (a 17-minute short feature).

“I had students that knew what was happening,” she said. “Thye knew where I was going in the morning and that this was a possibility. They all came to me and congratulated me. But I still had a normal day. I taught a lesson.” Aimee Along with Whitesell the honor of being selected the best of the best in the district, Whitesell received flowers and a certificate. But Whitesell said the biggest prize is that the award opens up lines of communication with her peers that she did not have before. As a top five finisher for District Teacher of the Year, Whitesell is now a part of the Advisory Council. The top five for the past two years make up the counsel, which Whitesell calls a kind of teacher forum. The Council’s big focus this year is teacher morale and retention. “Now, I get to help teachers around the district,” Whitesell said. “Normally, you don’t get a lot of outside input. They amount of people I get to talk to now has improved.” Whitesell is excited about the exchange of ideas and the possibility of learning from, or helping, her peers at other schools in the district whom she might not otherwise engage. “This changes the perspective, this changes the con-

versation,” she said. “Say for instance this school is doing X, Y, Z and excelling … I can improve on what we’re doing just by talking to someone at a school that’s just two miles down the road, or five miles down the road. I’m super excited to be able to talk to other teachers.” Whitesell said that before the award, as a regular teacher, she didn’t even know this existed. “(We had a previous) teacher who was in the top five,” she said. “I was so busy figuring out COVID that I honestly didn’t pay enough attention. Any teacher can have input just by going through their school’s teacher of the year, I just missed it. A part of her four years at Battery Creek that Whitesell loves is being a part of the Leader in Me program. Whitesell serves as the Student Lighthouse Coordinator for Battery Creek, a Leader in Me Lighthouse School. In the district’s release, Whitesell said the program “is not about the status or being the person speaking to everyone, it is about giving the students (even the ones too afraid to speak) and myself, the ability to speak the same language and understand how we can use the language and skills taught to make us successful.” The program starts small in the classroom, allowing students to step up, answer more questions and become leaders, putting the all of the students on equal footing.

“What ideas do you have? How do you want to implement this?” she said. “I … have 16 students under me. Those students give other teachers breaks on Leader in Me lessons. They actually help lead the school.” Whitesell has been teaching for nine years, five at a high school outside New Orleans before coming to the Lowcountry. She holds a master’s degree in in Educational Leadership from the American College of Education and a bachelor’s degree in Natural Science and Biology Education from Missouri Western State University. She holds a Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education and is certified in Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP), helping to make content material more comprehensible to English Language Learners. Whitesell said in the release that it’s an honor to be named with other outstanding teachers, but she sees herself as an ordinary teacher who loves her students like family, working hard to show them how much she cares about them. She wrote in her Teacher of the Year application, “Being an outstanding teacher is someone who builds the whole student and looks for that spark to make the students better inside and out.” Mike McCombs is the editor of The Island News and can be reached at TheIslandNews@gmail.com.

Eagles shut down Sneed, Seahawks after early shootout

LowcoSports.com Notre Dame commit Jaylen Sneed put on a show early in his newfound offensive role, but backto-back Region 7-4A champion Beaufort High flexed its muscle in the second half Friday, shutting out the visiting Seahawks after the first quarter to roll to a 38-14 win to open region play. Amariee Morris rushed for 87 yards and three touchdowns, and Tyler Haley tossed a TD pass to Kacy Fields to lead the Eagles’ high-powered offense, and Carter Bowersox came up with several big plays on defense, including a pick deep in Seahawks territory to set up a touchdown. Sneed silenced the home crowd early, breaking away for a 74-yard touchdown run on the opening series and tacking on a two-point pass for an early 8-0 lead, but Zyrin Odom provided a prompt

response, taking the ensuing kickoff to the house. After a quick three-and-out, Haley led the Eagles down the field in two plays, hitting tight end Michael Dennison for a big gain before connecting with Fields for a touchdown to give Beaufort a 14-8 lead. Sneed and the Seahawks responded with an impressive drive capped by the future Notre Dame linebacker’s powerful 18-yard scoring run on which he plowed over several Eagles on his way to the end zone to tie it. But the Eagles locked in from there, stifling the Seahawks on defense while the offense went to work. Haley and Fields again hooked up for a long pass to set up Morris’ 15-yard touchdown run, and Beaufort didn’t surrender the lead again. An acrobatic Bowersox interception set up a short field and led to Morris’ 7-yard scoring

run for a 28-14 lead, and the dynamic senior back added a 5-yard touchdown after McLeod Reichel opened the second half with a long kickoff return. Joe Caprarola added a 39-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, and the Eagles shut down the Seahawks the rest of the way to seal it. Sneed had a monster game at quarterback, rushing for 200 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries, and added six tackles on defense, but the Eagles held everyone else to a quiet night. Chris Marable led the Hilton Head Island defense with 12 tackles and a pass breakup. Beaufort (5-1, 1-0) travels to James Island to continue region play next Friday. The Seahawks (1-4, 0-1) will open their renovated home stadium Friday, hosting Colleton County on their new artificial turf.

BA blanks HHP in second half of region rout

By Wes Kerr LowcoSports.com After being shut out a week ago at Thomas Heyward, Beaufort Academy’s offense roared back to life in Sea Pines on Friday. The Eagles rode a second-half surge to victory, outscoring Hilton Head Prep 28-0 to close out a massive 42-10 region win over the Dolphins. After getting an initial stop on defense, BA’s ground game

went to work, orchestrating a quick five-play scoring drive capped off by a 37-yard Jaxen Porter dash to put the visitors up 7-0. The Eagles were looking to replicate that success on the next possession, but a fumble right out of the gate set up Hilton Head Prep, who cashed in with a Loncelle Daley 1-yard burst across the goal line to tie the game. The turnover and score shifted the momentum toward

the Dolphins, as Nick Rose stuffed Porter on fourth-and-2 to get the ball right back in Eagles territory. But a three-andout forced a quick punt, and Dineen got Beaufort Academy’s offense back in business, firing a dart on the run to Walker Day for a clutch 34yard, third-down conversion. The Eagle quarterback delivered again on fourth-andgoal at the 3, as Porter freed himself in the left corner of

the end zone to haul in the goahead touchdown. Hilton Head Prep had a chance to tie it late in the first half after a beautiful grab by Christian Bueso, but the drive stalled inside the 10 to force a Trevor Weldon field goal. The Eagles went back to the run game in the second half, and wore down Hilton Head Prep’s defense the rest of the way. The explosive tandem of backs found chunks of yards

thanks to a terrific offensive line, and Beaufort Academy rattled off 28 straight points to pull away on the road. Porter rushed for 215 yards and three scores on 25 carries, and Cody Dalrymple added 150 yards on the ground for the Eagles, while Dineen was 5-for-5 for 89 yards. BA’s defense was in command after halftime and even got in on the scoring, as Alex Pinto recovered a fumble for a

touchdown. It was a rough day for Hilton Head Prep’s offense, but Jake Rodney-Brown was remarkable on the defensive side, racking up 15 tackles while Sean Graham added 10 stops. Beaufort Academy (3-1, 2-0) plays its third straight road game at Thomas Sumter on Friday, while Hilton Head Prep (4-2, 0-1) travels to Orangeburg Prep for a pivotal region contest.

Dilbert, Dolphins run over Raptors for region win

LowcoSports.com The first win of the season was worth the wait for Battery Creek, as the Dolphins opened Region 8-3A play with a critical 30-20 win at Academic Magnet on Thursday.

Jeremiah Dilbert had another monster game with 162 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries, and Dreshaun Brown added 62 yards and a touchdown on six carries and scooped up a blocked punt for a touchdown to lead the

Dolphins to a huge win that boosts their playoff hopes. Battery Creek was without four linemen, but the Dolphins still won the battle in the trenches, opening holes for Dilbert and Brown and giving quarterback Hunter

CROSS COUNTRY Moore, Antia lead Eagles at Military Magnet Invitational

Gavin Moore and Charlize Antia notched a pair of fourth-place finishes Saturday to lead Beaufort High at the Military Magnet Invitational in North Charleston. Moore, an 8th-grader, dazzled to pace the Eagles, running a 17:09 for fourth place. Senior Charlie Bennett delivered a strong showing, finishing 13th with a 17:54, while Connor Eby crossed the line just 10 seconds later in 14th. Antia matched Moore’s finish in the girls’ race, earning fourth place with a time of 20:16. Seventh-grader Yzeult Antia cracked the top-30 with a mark of 22:18. Beaufort High will compete in

JPII girls, HHP boys make it back-to-back wins

John Paul II’s girls and Hilton Head Prep’s boys got it done for the second straight week on the cross country trails, taking the top spots at Cross Schools in Bluffton on Tuesday, Sept. 28. The Golden Warriors dominated the girls’ meet, as seventh-grader Ayla Reynolds (24:13.05) crossed the line first to earn the individual and team title. John Paul II (34 pts) cruised to a 19-point victory, earning top-10 finishes from Brady Mahoney (25:53.56), Abby Brock (27:04.20), and Lauren Weniger

Smith time to operate in his first start under center. Smith was 2-for-4 for 66 yards, including a 62-yard scoring strike to Kendall McMillon, who also had an interception on defense. Quatrell Livingston had an-

(28:59.05) in fourth, sixth, and 10th. Hilton Head Christian Academy (53 pts) took runner-up honors, as Anna Taylor (27:55.20), Brinkley Smith (28:49.69), and Lily Chase (28:50.54) went 7-8-9. Jimmy Kuehler led the Dolphins (36 pts) to victory with a time of 20:39.88, finishing in second place just behind CBCCA’s Jesse Richardson (19:52.40). Hilton Head Prep placed three more runners inside the top 10, as Ernest Friday (21:27.95), Beckett Jones (21:41.97), and Luke Aragon (21:43.38) took sixth, eighth, and ninth while seventh-grader Matthew Moe (22:05.85) rounded out the scoring runners in 11th. John Paul II (47 pts) put together another strong performance for second overall, paced by Blake Hubick (20:58.05) in fourth and

other big game on defense for the Dolphins with 12 tackles, a sack, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery, and Xzorion Berry added nine tackles in Creek’s best defensive showing yet. Ivan Huerta helped seal

Kelon Reynolds (21:33.25) in seventh. Noah Kaufman (20:45.66) excelled for Hilton Head Christian Academy with a third-place mark, and eighth-grader Burgin Topper (23:29.20) led Beaufort Academy.

‘I don’t want to stop’: Eagles’ Mills commits to UNCW

Whale Branch gets back to winning ways vs. Cross From staff reports Whale Branch bounced back from a heartbreaking loss a week ago to beat visiting Cross, 31-14, on Friday, assuring the Warriors of a home game in the first round of the playoffs. The Warriors’ region title hopes took a hit with a 30-25 loss to Baptist Hill last week, but Whale Branch was back to its winning ways against the Trojans. Kai’Shawn Jenkins had a big game, rushing for a touchdown and tossing a 63yard touchdown pass to Jakhi Pusha, who also added a 7-yard scoring run. The Warriors’ defense shut out the Trojans in the second half with the help of interceptions from Mason Griffin and Kamron Holman. Griffin took his pick back for a touchdown. Whale Branch star Joseph Hicks helped anchor the defense but carried a lighter load in the backfield due to back soreness. Whale Branch (4-1, 3-1) is off next week before traveling to Estill on Oct. 15. The Warriors are also seeking an opponent for Oct. 22.

By Justin Jarrett LowcoSports.com Nash Mills’ two favorite places to be are on the water or pounding the trails, so he found a place he could do both at the next level. A standout track and cross country star at Beaufort High School, Mills has committed to compete in the same sports at UNC Wilmington next school year. Mills took an unofficial visit in June and fell in love with the campus and coaching staff, and he committed during an official visit last week in which he met and worked out with his future teammates. As an avid surfer who loves to spend time at the beach, UNCW’s proximity to the water – and its marine biology program — were appealing. “I felt like I could really fit in there,” Mills said. “I’m really excited to compete at the Division I level against all those bigger college guys.” The biggest transition for Mills will be moving from running 5K races in high school cross country to the

8K distance in college, but his immediate concern is getting back out with his Beaufort teammates. Mills and his father, Eagles cross country coach Howard Mills,

were in a serious car accident on July 1, leaving Nash with numerous injuries, including a broken leg. He had surgery to insert a steel rod in his femur to aid

the healing process, and it has been a long road to recovery. Mills was limited in his mobility for several weeks but has been regaining his fitness through physical therapy,

swimming, and biking as he works his way back up to running. He has been his teammates’ biggest cheerleader — essentially an assistant coach — and attended meets and practices, but he hopes to rejoin the Eagles for the region and state meets, even if he isn’t in shape to successfully defend his Region 7-4A individual title. Mills hopes to be back to full strength for his final high school track season and continue his growth in the 400 and 800. Regardless of his results the rest of his senior year, though, Mills won’t take the opportunity to run for granted. Not anymore. “It was definitely pretty difficult those first few weeks when I was just sitting on a bed inside,” Mills said. “One thing I’ve learned is I don’t want to not run. Before the injury, I had days and weeks where I just didn’t want to run, and I don’t feel like that’s going to happen again. Once I’m running again, I don’t want to stop.”

Howard’s heroics lead Thomas Heyward to rout of JPII

By Wes Kerr LowcoSports.com It was the Brandon Howard show Friday night at Thomas Heyward Academy in Ridgeland. The senior did it all on homecoming night, accounting for four touchdowns with 14 tackles and a pick on defense as the Rebels rolled past

John Paul II, 46-6. After losing starting quarterback Dietrich Shuford to a season-ending injury two weeks ago, Howard stepped up again in a big way, taking five carries for 56 yards and two touchdowns while completing three of eight passes for 84 yards and two scores.

Anthony Fripp anchored the ground game, running for 107 yards on 14 carries, and Tony O’Banner excelled as a versatile playmaker, racking up 51 yards and a touchdown to go with a 38-yard reception. Ryder Smith dashed to the end zone on a 10-yard run, while Cutter Williams and Cody

Parker added a pair of touchdown catches each. The Rebels defense shut down a JPII attack that put up 76 points the previous two weeks, holding the Golden Warriors to fewer than 150 total yards. Howard was a force at linebacker, recording 14 tackles and an interception.

Walker Taylor and Cameron VanGeison each put up 10 tackles while Cody Parker added six stops and picked off a pass. The ferocious defense was busy in the backfield, as Taylor, Josh Alfonso, and Preston Hamilton each picked up a sack. Michael Carbone and Se-

bastian Slusne led the defensive effort for John Paul II with nine tackles each. Thomas Heyward (5-1, 1-0) travels to Colleton Prep for a region contest Friday, while John Paul II (2-3, 1-0) looks for a bounce-back win at home against Northwood Academy in a region game.

What If God Was One of Us? A radio hit sparks a conversation at the office A surprising topic for a pop song. In the 90s, Joan Osborne released the hit song “One of Us,” in which she wondered, “What if God was one of us? Just a stranger on the bus, trying to make his way home? …If God had a name, what would it be and would you call it to his face? …What would you ask if you had just one question?”

God did become one of us! Mark explained to his coworker that this has indeed already happened. Two thousand years ago, God did enter the world and became one of us. He did look just like one of us, no different from anyone else in the crowd. You could look into his eyes and ask him any question. He did have a name: his name was Jesus.

“Wouldn’t that be a great idea for a story?” A Christian author, Mark Shea, shares how this song began playing on his coworker’s radio one day at the office. The coworker looked thoughtful for a moment and then said, “Wouldn’t that be a great idea for a story?” Mark said, “What?” She replied, “Suppose God became a human being. Wouldn’t that be a great idea for a story?”

This changes everything. Mark’s coworker correctly grasped that, if God actually became one of us, this would be the most wonderful event that had ever happened in human history. How could the infinite God, without beginning or end, become part of finite creation? How could God, who the entire universe cannot contain, become an infant growing in Mary’s womb? And wouldn’t we want to know everything he did and said while on earth? This is the astonishing belief at the heart of Christianity. A number of the major world religions hold that their founders were inspired by God or taught on his behalf. But only Christianity declares that God has actually chosen to become one of us, entering the world as a human being. (John 1:14) The man known by historians as Jesus of Nazareth was different from all others in history, because he was truly God in our midst. How extravagant is God’s love! Instead of communicating once more through human messengers, God came to earth himself! Rather than giving a little of himself, he gave himself completely. This is how much he loves us. This is how important each of us is to him. Looking into the face of Jesus, calling him by name as a close friend, we discover joy that the world cannot take away!

We are raising a generation of map-avoiding illiterates

t is Sunday, and I’m in Massachusetts. Yesterday my wife and I hiked a short, relatively level trail featuring edible, trailside blueberries and the rusting wreckage of a crashed airplane. I carried two maps, some bottled water but no poncho for the possibility of rain. One of these maps was badly drawn — at least it confused me — and we ended up walking an extra three miles in the rain. I was humiliated. I was humiliated because I have taken the Land Navigation Course at the U.S. Army’s Infantry School at Fort Benning. Humiliated because I often brag about my understanding of maps. Humiliated because henceforth my wife will never, ever believe I passed the course or have intuitive insight with regard to direction or distance or knowing one’s location in the world.

onsuming nutrients is necessary for human sustenance, and it is no less ethical eating meat than eating anything else that fits the bill — or fills the tummy. Beyond health concerns, the major reasons commonly offered for not eating meat are based on prevailing notions of the relative values of living things. Our self-serving understanding of the natural order places animals on a higher plane than plants and humans on a higher plane than other animals. The more similarities a living entity shares with us, the less inclined we are to eat it. Based on this, some believe it ethical to eat plants but not animals; others believe it ethical to eat animals, but

One exercise at the Infantry School involved a compass and three fellow lieutenants, one of whom could reliably translate his walking stride into feet. Then we were given a compass bearing and a distance to be walked in that direction. Then, assuming we had gotten to the first point successfully (a tree), there was a second compass bearing and a second distance. Then another. And another. Eventually we were given a grade based upon the time it took to complete the course. And then there was a second, night-time exercise which meant walking a

straight line — and computing the distance — regardless of obstacles. Of course the US Army made sure there were bogs, streams and flesh-scraping thorns in the line of march. These obstacles slowed us down, scratched our faces, and threw-off our pace man. This night-time walk in the woods proved to be difficult and painful. But our pain wasn’t anything like the pain experienced by the 2nd Battalion, First Marine Division on Guadalcanal in 1942. The initial amphibious assault was successful with the Marines capturing the almost-completed Japanese airstrip. But immediately the Japanese Navy began making plans to retake the island and to destroy the 11,000 Marines now in residence there. The Japanese counter-attack involved 900 Japanese soldiers at Ilu River, mistakenly labeled the Tenaru on the maps then available to

the 2nd Battalion commanded by Lt. Col. Edwin Pollock. Pollock, a 1921 graduate of The Citadel, would later acquire four stars and eventually retire in Beaufort. The Japanese attack was a frontal assault against the dug-in Marines, who were armed with 30 and 50 caliber machine guns, along with a few 37 mm anti-tank guns. The Japanese force was essentially annihilated. Although the Battle at Tenaru ended in victory, the Marines lacked reliable maps, accurate tide charts and many of their radios did not work. Voice radios were not functioning because of the moisture that affected the circuits and the metal contacts. “Walkie Talkies” powered by batteries had a range of one or two miles but were ineffective in the jungle. In desperation the Marines turned to ground wires. But they got stepped-on and broken and had to be strung-

up in trees. For the most part the Marines relied on patrols to give them some notion of where the Japanese were located and their strength. But after the battle it was determined that the locations of the enemy were often wrong. The information was erroneous because the Marines were misled by the difficulty walking through the jungle. Walking through the dark, heavy foliage, the patrols overestimated the distance they had traveled. The Japanese turned out to be a lot closer. In 1970, the term “drone” wasn’t in the Marine Corps vocabulary. These days Marine Corps rifle platoons are organized around drones and drone operators. The Marine Corps is determined not to repeat the confusion it experienced on Guadalcanal and has incorporated reconnaissance drones into its infantry.

Why it is ethical to eat meat DONALD WRIGHT

not those with certain human characteristics, often drawing the line at those possessing a central nervous system. Most avoid eating animals considered our near relatives — chimpanzees or orangutans, for instance — and virtually all abstain from eating other humans. Fair enough. But Linnaeus did not consult plants, or even orangutans, when he developed, and others refined, what came to be widely accepted ideas

of these biological hierarchies, and our ideas about the relative value of living things have a record of being badly miscast. After all, a century ago, learned people of European descent held that such persons as themselves, termed “Whites” for their pale skins, were superior to such other human groupings as “Blacks,” “Browns,” “Yellows,” or “Reds.” Decisions not about whether we should eat these perceived lower orders, but about their mental and physical capacities, their life and death, and how we should treat them, were based on this hierarchical notion. That we now hold such racist ideas in contempt shows how thoroughly some of our most deeply held sentiments can

change over a few generations. Current ideas about biological hierarchies may be as ripe for change as were those about race a century ago. Already, such basic ideas supporting how we deal with animals as the centuries-old belief, handy for carnivores, that certain animals feel neither pain nor fear have been proved incorrect and have thus altered in some measure how we treat and kill the animals we consume. Respected botanists also now theorize that plants also feel pain and even recognize affection. In considering the biological hierarchy, might we soon cease to place animals in a higher order because, among other negative characteristics, they consume oxygen

and give off carbon dioxide, take — sometimes violently — what they need for their nourishment and excrete what remains wherever it strikes them, and kill one another in mating rituals, or to claim dominance, or for a perceived political gain? At the same time might we not raise to a higher plane the plants that take in CO2 and give off oxygen, create their own food from sunlight, renew the soil they grow in once they die, and in some cases offer up nourishing vegetables, fruits, nuts, and nectar for the consumption of others? If such ideas gain acceptance, should they form the ethical basis for what we eat? If so, it might then be ethical to eat animals and not plants.

But, of course, the Chinese are developing this same image-gathering technology and both countries are developing drone-seeking missiles. So one assumes the Marines have a man who operates the friendly drones and another man who shoots down the unfriendly drones. All of which leads me to believe that there is still some utility in having the ability to look at contour lines and identify landmarks on the ground. But our reliance on satellite-assisted electronics — and that seductive female voice that tells where and which way to turn — means we are raising a generation of map-avoiding illiterates. Recruits who may not know what a map does, or is, other than provide antique wall decor. Scott Graber is a lawyer, novelist, veteran columnist and longtime resident of Port Royal.

As with all animals, we humans cannot sustain ourselves without consuming something that once was alive. Rather than limit which living things we consume based on current notions of which is more advanced, or suffers more in the process, is it not better to treat with consideration the plants and animals we eat, making sure their lives are decent and their killing carried out as humanely as possible, while giving thanks to the living entities whose lives we take so that we may survive another day?

A group of three can change the world

mne trium perfectum, good things come in threes. Beginning my article with a Latin phrase is a definite sign of intellect, prestige, and mastery of pretension. It rolls off the tongue with a bit more fashion, pizazz, and proof that I utilize Google. The Three Little Pigs, Three French Hens, and a three-ring circus would never be without three. What a dismal world it would be. Researching scenarios that prove this epithet, I chose to examine my own experiences. One example indisputably frolicked to the forefront of my flustered mind. Unsure of the regional implications and wary of excluding those above the

Mason-Dixon, I won't feign the South has exclusivity. It is a universal phenomenon. Almost every woman has a trifecta, strong ties that unite a group of women who may appear to otherwise have very little in common, somewhat of yin and yang but with a twist that keeps things intriguing. It is a natural force with extraordinary results — an equilateral

triangle maintaining calm or creating chaos. For me, it is the saint, thinker, and troublemaker – a mystical recipe for survival or disaster. It is to my trifecta I turn when life gets a bit squally. Considering myself the thinker of the motley mix, I have but two options. The saint keeps me grounded and semi-logical, while the troublemaker seems to have an endless supply of questionable solutions. The saint is sensible, responsible, and far more rational than her cohorts. When tempers go high and right, she is there with an appropriate amount of chocolate and an insufficient amount of alcohol. She makes sure we have sun-

screen, arrive home safely, and are always the first to RSVP. She has single-handedly kept the troublemaker and me out of prison. She has direct lines to Jesus and an endless supply of Advil. The contents of her purse are the eighth wonder of the world. I do believe every trifecta needs a troublemaker. She has kept us both on our toes and given us stories to tell our future grandkids. Continuously encouraging us to color outside the lines, buy the shoes and add just a bit more makeup. Her heart is golden, motives dubious, and her willingness to go to battle is legendary. She intuitively hears the slightest tone in

my voice and arrives with a baseball bat and a bottle of wine, ready to use her expertise with both. Maybe the trifecta is little pieces of us all, and together we form a capable, caring, and charismatic woman. They turn to me when difficult situations knock on their door. I arrive with a solution or an alibi without fail. The troublemaker knows I am the one to bail her out, find her car and help with the pesky adult tasks. The saint knows I am the first to stand by her side when her soft voice is unheard. They both know to call me if they find themselves alone. We fight. We disagree. We drink bottles of wine

while solving all the world's problems and stay in touch no matter how life laps the miles. We are, to each other, a true north, especially when things go south. One woman is strong, two are fierce, but a group of three can change the world or at least your mood. Soulmates of a different kind with three hearts, three personalities, and evidence that good things certainly do come in threes.

Misinformation, disinformation, mal-information: A one-way road to Perdition

isinformation is false information. Disinformation is deliberate falsehood. Mal-information is information that might be true, but is intentionally used to deceive. These mendacities are the mother’s milk of the anti-vaccine activists, political propagandists, conspiracy theorists, and their ilk. They corrode our liberty, under the false guise that their vulgar messages are strengthening our freedom. Balderdash! In 1962, the famous science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clark proposed three new laws of “science.” The third became the most famous and most cited: “A technology sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic.” I am a believer in the magic of this “law of science.” The magic of digital technology (DT) has fundamentally changed the 21st Century; now and forever; for better or worse.

DAVID TAUB

Since the industrial revolution of the 19th century, technology has increased exponentially, whereas, social norms and government laws have lagged eons behind technological advancements. This is why DT has been so successful, and why we have so few meaningful laws to rein in the ocean of deceit in which we are drowning. The guiding principle of “trollism” is to inundate social networks with prodigious amounts of the exuded grass digested by cows – a four-letter word I cannot print here, but you know what I mean. Digital technology allows legions of anonymous fabricators to subvert users

of social media. Adept exploitation of social networks enables these “trolls” — human, robot and sophisticated Artificial Intelligence/ algorithms — to mislead us. They operate 24/7/365, creating a tsunami of outrage and confusion with their fakery; these trolls have been described as “epistemic sociopaths.” Trolls are socio-pathological serial killers of Truth. The First Amendment does not protect robots or artificial intelligence (AI) to sing their deceitful songs. These enemies of Truth succeed because they are aided and abetted by social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and the like, which have virtually no restrictions on what appears on their podiums. These vicious, unrelenting attacks on our democracy are unprecedented, and they must not be ignored. Doing so only emboldens trolls to try even harder to convince us that

what we believe to be true, is not to be believed at all. The goal of the trolls is not to convince you of the lies they propagate. Their goal is to make you question what you believe, and to confuse you to the extent that you can no longer discriminate between truth and falsity. Trolls want folks to be unable to know whom to trust; who is lying; who is telling the truth. Confusion, frustration, indecision – such chaos becomes a deadly weapon. In that way, these demons act like merciless termites steadily eating away at the pillars of our democracy, pillars built upon Truth. Every aspect of trust and credibility is corroded and degraded by these insidious “Pied Pipers of Lies” through their knowledge and use of digital technology. A major player in the social media universe, Salesforce (CRM), whose CEO also owns Time magazine, is increasingly critical of Facebook. Insider information

from the Wall Street Journal’s investigation found that Facebook’s highest officials were not only well aware of its negative impact on users, but also that they failed to mitigate this existential problem. To quote a basic critique of Facebook by Salesforce’s CEO: "In each and every major topic, it gets connected back to the mistrust that is happening and especially the amount of it being seeded by the social networks. It must stop now!” Recently, YouTube has hit hard on the falsities of the anti-vaxxer trolls, including in Russia. A definite step in the right direction. Some high-tech billionaires have urged Congress to try and stop the "level of deceit" on virtually all social networks. The Federal government has a vital role to play, and it is essential that Congress pass specific laws to prevent social media platforms such as Facebook from disseminating deceitful, dangerous garbage – tall

tales that attack our democratic principles at their very foundation. The trolls are the enemy of Superman and our republic: “Truth, Justice and the American Way.” The survival of our thus-far-successful experiment with republican democracy is at stake. Trollism is a “clear and present danger,” and they must be stopped. Germany’s government pressured Facebook, which took an unprecedented removal of fake accounts spreading COVID-19 misinformation that also encouraged violence onto COVID restrictions. If the Germans can manage this important remediation of our problems with evil Trolls, why can’t we? “Well, all I know is what I read in the newspapers.” – Will Rogers. David M.

Inflation threat means it’s time to pump brakes on spending

fter four decades as barely a blip on the radar, inflation once again rears its ugly head. Just look around. Things are getting sharply more expensive. Gas and food prices are way up. Used cars and building materials cost more. The average cost of goods and services has risen 5.3 percent during the past year – well above the 2 percent deemed healthy by economists. White House officials are eager to downplay the inflation spike. It’s nothing to be alarmed about, they say, just a temporary headache caused by pandemic-related shutdowns. Of course, it’s hard to know how much the White House believes its own spin. The surge in consumer prices comes at a moment the president is pressing his case for a sprawling, $3.5 trillion

social spending bill. Admitting there’s inflation would jeopardize that bill, because its eye-popping price tag would likely further fuel inflation. That’s not something people will easily stomach if they’re already nervous about fast-rising living costs. Much rides on convincing people the high prices we’re seeing won’t stick around. The spiking inflation rate comes amid a record-shattering government spending binge, much of it billed as “stimulus” to counter the impact of pandemic-related shutdowns. Meanwhile, the

shutdowns disrupted supply chains while increased unemployment benefits helped create labor shortages. That’s the certain recipe for inflation: increasing the money circulating in an economy (increasing demand) versus the amount of goods and services available for purchase (reducing supply). When demand for goods and services exceeds their supply, prices go up. So, that flood of federal dollars we’ve recently seen is a reason we’re seeing higher grocery bills today. The question is, how long will rising prices continue, and how bad will they get? Certainly, downplaying the inflation threat is the politically convenient move. When sluggish growth is the main threat to the economy, Washington’s standard remedy is a spending spree. But when the predominant

threat is inflation, a spending spree drives up inflation even more. That’s when it’s time for Washington to cut up its credit cards. That's not what the White House wants to hear as it’s pushing another massive spending bill. The White House says the current bout of inflation is driven by a couple of factors temporarily causing demand to outpace supply: people spending their savings because businesses and factories have re-opened, and lingering labor shortages and bottlenecks caused by the shutdowns. Officials insist inflation will be shortlived. Skepticism is warranted, however. There’s no end in sight for the supply chain bottlenecks, and they may further worsen. And while it’s likely that some of the factors at work here are temporary, there are some that

aren’t – such as increased home prices, gasoline, groceries, and of course, federal spending. Even some economists on the left have sounded the alarm about the president’s free-spending agenda. They include Larry Summers, a former top economist for presidents Clinton and Obama, who clearly struck a nerve earlier this year in warning that inflation could remain for a while. He suggests tapping the brakes on spending. A lawmaker from the president’s party has advocated a “pause” on the impending spending bill until a clearer inflation picture emerges. That’s good advice. We mustn’t tempt fate by rushing through a spending bill that could worsen inflation’s sting. Inflation eats away at our purchasing power and

erodes our standard of living. It’s a hidden tax hike. And politicians who fancy themselves champions of lower-income Americans should keep in mind that inflation hurts the little guy the most. For people struggling to get by, necessities become even less affordable. There's no evidence to justify dismissing the inflation threat out of hand. To ignore it risks increasing the intensity and duration of the pain ahead. And let's just say the White House's recent track record doesn't inspire confidence in its ability to read warning signs, no matter how clear. Pumping the brakes on government spending is the only wise course of action.

What are veterans and military service members’ VR&E benefits?

f you are a Veteran or Military Service Member you may be eligible for Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E), formerly known as Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment, services to help with job training, resume development, job seeking skills coaching, and finding a good job. VR&E is a Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) program. Read the basic information on VR&E at https://www.benefits. va.gov/vocrehab/index.asp. The VR&E Program also offers other services to assist eligible veterans and service members in starting their own businesses or providing independent living services for those who are severely disabled and unable to work in traditional employment. Read about the VR&E Program and how to apply online, by mail, or in-person, at the VR&E Process Page at https:// www.va.gov/careers-employment/vocational-rehabilitation/. The VR&E Program intent is to assist service members and veterans with service-connected disabilities to succeed: • In transitioning back to civilian life; • In finding suitable employment; • On campus by supporting education and training; • At home and communities through services to maximize independence in daily living. Read more about how to apply for VR&E at https:// www.va.gov/careers-employment/vocational-rehabilitation/how-to-apply. Learn more about how to apply on-line using the VA’s Application For Vocational Rehabilitation For Claimants With Service-Connected Disabilities, VA Form 28-1900 at https://www.va.gov/ careers-employment/vocational-rehabilitation/applyvre-form-28-1900/start. For accessing VR&E through the Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES) read the information at https://www.va.gov/careers-employment/voca-

tional-rehabilitation/ides. The VR&E Program is also known as Chapter 31 and will help those eligible to explore employment options and address training needs. In some cases, veteran and service member family members may also qualify for certain benefits. Family members of veterans and service members can find out if they are eligible for certain counseling services, training, and education benefits at https://www.va.gov/careers-employment/dependant-benefits. Veterans are eligible to apply for VR&E benefits if the Veteran: • Has an honorable or other than dishonorable discharge; and • A VA service-connected disability rating of 10 percent or more or a memorandum rating of 20 percent. Active-duty service members are eligible to apply for VR&E benefits if the Service Member expects to receive an honorable or other than dishonorable discharge and: • Obtains a VA memorandum rating of 20 percent or more or • Is enrolled in the *Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES). (Note: The Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES) is a joint DoD and VA disability evaluation process. Under this system, VA helps DoD determine if wounded, ill, or injured service members are fit for continued military service and provide disability benefits to service members and veterans, if appropriate. IDES allows VA and DoD to share information and to complete each agency’s respective process simultaneously, without the need for duplicative exams and

ratings.) While eligible to apply for VR&E, the service member must meet the criteria for entitlement, except if the service member is awaiting discharge due to serious injury or illness, which occurred in the line-of-duty. In this case, the service member will be automatically entitled to VR&E benefits under the National Defense Authorization ACT of 2008. The VR&E entitlement is for 48 months but this period may be extended if a VA Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor determines that the service member has a serious employment handicap. The time limit for a service member’s eligibility to receive VR&E benefits is limited to 12 years. The 12-year period starts on the latter of these two dates: • Date of separation from active military duty or • Date when the veteran was notified of a VA service-connected disability. If you’re a veteran or service member with a service-connected disability that impacts your ability to work, the VA’s VR&E Program may be able to help. VR&E offers five support-and-services tracks to help veterans and service members find and keep a job, and live as independently as possible. VR&E support-and-services tracks can help those eligible to learn new skills, find a new job, start a business, get professional or vocational training and educational counseling, or return to a former job. The five VR&E support tracks are: • Reemployment track, where a Service Member may have the right to return to the civilian job that he or she held before they deployed. Services include consultation with the employer, job accommodations, coordination with the Veterans Heath Administration services, reemployment rights advice, and case management. • Rapid Access to Employment track, where a

veteran or service member can get employment counseling, short-term training, subsistence allowance, resume development help, interviewing skills preparation, job search assistance, and job-search support that matches the veteran’s existing skills. • Self-Employment track, where a service member or veteran, with a service-connected disability, can get help to start his or her own business. Services may include referrals to resources (Small Business Administration, etc.) to assist in developing a business plan, training in small business operations, and guidance in obtaining resources. • Employment Through Long-Term Services track, where a veteran or service member may be eligible for specialized training or education to obtain suitable employment. This service could include college, vocational, or technical training; apprenticeships, internships, on-the-job training, subsistence money personalized case management, and individualized employment services. • Independent Living track, where a veteran or service member is unable to pursue a vocational goal or seek employment can get assistive technology, independent living skills training, community-based support services, gain increased access to the community, acquire a volunteer position, and obtain home adaptations to improve independence in daily living.

ment/vocational-rehabilitation/programs/. The VR&E Program is not the same as the GI Bill. The GI Bill is an educational program. VR&E is a program to assist veterans and service members with service-connected disabilities to overcome barriers to employment and become suitably employed. Four of the five VR&E tracks of services are geared specifically toward employment. The “E” in VRE stands for employment assistance. The three VR&E offices in S.C. are located in Columbia (803-647-2400), Charleston (843-740-9114), and Greenville (864-2719682). These offices are in the VBA Southern District and the VBA Regional Office in Columbia, SC. The Charleston VR&E Office is located at 4600 Goer Drive, Suite 110, N. Charleston, S.C. 29406, but due to the COVID Pandemic, it is not open to the public and services are being provided remotely. See https://benefits. va.gov/benefits/offices. asp to read about VBA Regional Offices and their locations. This website has a map showing SE, NE, Continental, and Pacific VBA Districts. It also has a by state index that provides links to VA regional offices, an email address for contacting the regional office director and a listing of additional VA facilities located in each state. Visit your regional office website to learn about the services the regional office provides, directions to the facility, hours of operation, and the leadership team that serves the regional office. The Columbia, S.C. Regional Office is located at 6437 Garners Ferry Road, Columbia, SC 29209. The wonderful benefits

offered through the VR&E Program are too many to list in one newspaper article. So do your homework and read all about these hard-earned benefits at www.va.gov and watch the VA YouTube video entitled The Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Program Individualized Path to Employment at https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=pq1eDxZv1Zk. It is always advisable to use a trained professional called an accredited representative (an accredited attorney, claims agent, or Veterans Service Officer-VSO), to get help applying for VR&E benefits. The VA trusts these professionals because they’re trained and certified in the VA claims and appeals processes and can help with VA-related needs. Find a VA list and contact information for Veterans and Military Service Organizations at https://www.va.gov/VSO/ VSO-Directory.pdf. You can also search online for VA Accredited VSOs, Attorneys, and Claims Agents at https://www.va.gov/ogc/ apps/accreditation/index. asp. More importantly, S.C. Veterans can find a list of all S.C. County VSOs at https://scdva.sc.gov/county-veterans-affairs-offices. S.C. County VSO services are free. The Beaufort County Veterans Service Office is located in the Disabilities and Special Needs Building, at 100 Clear Water Way, Beaufort, S.C. 29906, phone number 843255-6880, and fax number 843-255-9445. Call ahead to make an appointment. Larry Dandridge is a retired Lt. Col. In the U.S. Army.
