Beaufort election official helped organize right-wing rally TERRY MANNING
Remember the days after Sept. 11
M
ost people of a certain age can tell you exactly where they were on Sept.
By Mike McCombs In February, Helen Spalding was appointed to a six-year term on the City of Beaufort’s non-partisan Election Commission by the City Council. Now her presence on the commission is in question. Spalding was involved in the organization of the far-right Audit The SC 2020 Vote Rally held Aug. 30 at the Olde Beaufort Golf Club.
11, 2001. Like the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., or the explosions of the Challenger and Columbia space shuttles, vivid sights and sounds enrich our memories of that day in ways that make it unforgettable. I remember it was a Tuesday morning, and I had just risen after working late the night before at the newspaper. I rolled off my side of the bed and reached to grab the remote for the little television atop the dresser. I pressed the red power button and waited to see what the news of the day might be. My wife had left the house already to take the children to school, and my only company was the little flatscreen coming to life. The “Today” show was responding to reports of a plane crashing into the World Trade Center. Images on the screen showed smoke pouring from the North Tower. Early speculation was there had been some sort of horrible mistake by air traffic controllers. I flipped channels, trying to see what the other networks were broadcasting. I heard my wife’s keys jingle as the front door opened at the other end of the hallway. She called out, “What is going on?!? The people on the radio are saying ...” As she spoke, a second plane appeared on the television screen and vanished into the side of the South Tower. “Turn on the TV!” I yelled. “Somebody is trying to blow up the World Trade Center!” A fireball erupted from the other side of the building and debris rained onto the street below. We watched with the rest of the world as smoke billowed from the

Murray said that the Council needed time to do its homework and would likely seek legal advice, as well, and discuss the matter in executive session at the next regularly scheduled City Council meeting. That meeting is slated for Tuesday,

Recruit found dead Tuesday at Parris Island
By Mike McCombs A U.S. Marine recruit was found dead Tuesday morning at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island. According to Beaufort County Coroner David Ott, a recruit from 3rd Recruit Training Battalion was “found deceased at about 7:30 a.m., apparently from a fall from the balcony.” He said that is all the information that would be released at this time.
An autopsy is scheduled for 8:30 a.m., Thursday, Sept. 9, at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) in Charleston. According to MCRD Parris Island spokesperson Capt. Philip Kulczewski, the incident is under investigation by the Naval Criminal Investigation Service (NCIS). The recruit’s identity will be released 24 hours after the next of kin notification. “Again, this incident is currently
under investigation, no further details can be released at this time,” Kulczewski said in a statement. “The Marine Corps maintains high training standards as well as thorough safety precautions. All safety incidents are taken seriously.” Tuesday’s death marks the second time this year a recruit has died at Parris Island. Nineteen-year-old Dalton Beals of Pennsville, N.J. died in June

Stewart challenges Lutz’s Historic Review Board membership; she’s not backing down
B
BEAUFORT eaufort City Council is facing pressure to remove or recuse not just one outspoken female from its appointed boards/ commissions, but two. Maxine Lutz, one of the five members of the Historic District Review Board (HDRB), is being challenged by developer Dick Stewart of 303 Associates who contends she, as a former director of Historic Beaufort Foundation (HBF), is prejudiced against his projects. In an Aug. 10 letter to the City Council, Stewart contends Lutz’s critical opinions about this downtown developments, particularly the proposed parking lot and new hotel on the corner of Scotts and Port Republic streets, are well-known thanks to an op-ed piece she wrote back in March, prior to being appointed to the
LOLITA HUCKABY
HDRB. Stewart also claims Lutz has a conflict of interest, as a representative of HBF on the review board, because the non-profit foundation joined an appeal filed by private landowner Graham Trask against the city’s approval of the parking garage and hotel. Lutz disagrees with Stewart’s challenge and has a ruling from the state Ethics Commission to back her. The opinion, issued Aug. 24, states since Lutz does not financially benefit by actions
of the Foundation, she is not in conflict with ethics laws and does not have to recuse herself. The Charles Street apartments, known as the Cannon Building, were scheduled to come back to the HDRB for final approval this week but the project was withdrawn from the agenda. The City Council also has the future of one of its two members on the city’s Election Commission on its plate. Helen Pappas Spalding was one of the organizers of the recent “Audit the S.C. 2020 Vote” rally held at the Olde Beaufort Golf Club, and since “non-partisan” is one of the requirements for election commissioners, her appointment is now being challenged. On the ballot PORT ROYAL – Speaking
of elections, the town of Port Royal has one coming up in November and four candidates have filed for two council seats. Incumbents Mary Beth Heyward and Daryl Owens met Friday’s deadline as did newcomers John Hazel and Edwin Gugino. Heyward, who recently retired from Lowcountry Medical, has been on the council since 1992. Owens, who works with the Jasper County school district, is seeking his second full term. Hazel is owner of Devil Dog Headquarters, a retail operation specializing in military memorabilia and chairman of the town’s parks and trees commission. Gugino is a resident of Shadow Moss neighborhood. In 2017, Heyward and Owens ran unopposed in the city-wide, non-partisan elections.
Taking a look around ... CHARLESTON – Sometimes, it can be enlightening to look at how other communities are dealing with similar issues, like flooding. Beaufort and Port Royal recently completed the Mossy Oaks drainage project, a four-year $8 million project designed to improve existing flooding problems. The county-wide stormwater management program includes more protection projects, dependent on available money. But take a look over at Charleston where residents of the Peninsula are working with officials on a multi-billion dollar plan to build a wall, or buffer around the low-lying area to prevent further sea encroachment. The argument for the dikes won even more supporters recently when
similar systems installed around parts of New Orleans worked as designed and appeared to lessen the damage from Hurricane Ida. Beaufort County leaders, on the other hand, can’t agree to the establishment of a Coastal Resilience Overlay Zone, which creates a “buyer beware” clause for potential land buys in areas lower than 10 feet in elevation. The biggest opponents of the amendment – those in the real estate market – cite fear of “unintended consequences.” Good thing they’re not planning a wall.

3 added to Beaufort Memorial Hospital Board of Trustees From staff reports A longtime Beaufort ophthalmologist, a Hilton Head Island attorney, and a former senior official with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) have been appointed to the Beaufort Memorial Hospital Board of Trustees by Beaufort County Council. Board-certified ophthalmologist Dr. Jane Kokinakis, D.O., owner of Beaufort Eye Center, and Vernita F.

Keshel is the author of a widely spread but debunked conspiracy theory that former President Donald Trump won seven key states that were instead awarded to President Joe Biden. A Pro-Trump lawyer and Beaufort County resident, Wood was sanctioned recently, along with several other lawyers who filed lawsuits challenging the results of the 2020 election. "Sanctions are required to deter the filing of future frivolous lawsuits designed primarily to spread the narrative that our election processes
are rigged and our democratic institutions cannot be trusted," U.S. District Judge Linda Parker, of the Eastern District of Michigan, wrote in her 110-page opinion. The lawyers are ordered to reimburse attorneys' fees that the city of Detroit and Michigan state officials paid to defend the lawsuit, and they are to take legal education classes. Parker also referred the case to the jurisdiction where each lawyer was admitted to the bar for the appropriate discipline, which could include disbarment.

We face a foe that’s claimed 600,000 souls, more than 200 times as many who died that horrible day 20 years ago. Why aren’t we all chipping in? When President George W.

Tuesday, but the rolling seven-day average for new cases is at 157. There were 13 COVID deaths reported over the last week in Beaufort County. At BMH, there were 53 COVID patients Monday, 46 of those unvaccinated. Ten are in the ICU and eight are on ventilators – all unvaccinated. Baxley, a doctor for 13 years, has worked in the BMH ER for roughly a decade. He visited Beaufort City Council abut six months ago to talk about vaccines. “I thought it might be informative for some folks,” Murray said. “… over the last three or four weeks, I’ve been fielding a lot of questions about vaccines, about their efficacy, about their safety, which makes me a little uncomfortable because I’m a mayor, not a medical doctor. And I thought it would be good to have Dr. Baxley come on and chat.” Murray asked his own questions for the first part of the conversation before viewers had their questions addressed. Here’s a sampling of roughly a third of the conversation. To watch the conversation in it’s entirety, visit https://bit. ly/3jRvMzq. *** Murray: Will you talk a little bit about what your day

looks like at the ER and what you and the nurses and other doctors are having to deal with at BMH on a daily basis? Baxley: We do shift work and we come in and pick up patients who are waiting to be seen. Most of it used to be your run of the mill emergencies, some of it, mixed in, your primary care. But rapidly, that’s turned into COVID. COVID, COVID, COVID, and more COVID. And complications of COVID. Initially in the first wave and the second little hump, we were fearful taking care of these people. We were all unvaccinated. We waited and waited, if we could just hold out for this vaccine and finally put an end to this. And it did, and we found that it’s been underutilized. Really underutilized. We’ve given this virus a chance to mutate, and it has. I’m sure all you guys are familiar with the Delta variant, more virulent, more aggressive, way more contagious. More likely to give you symptoms, more likely to put you in the hospital, more likely to kill you. And that’s what 80 percent of the infections were seeing at the hospital are, the Delta variant. And it’s frustrating because it’s … entirely preventable. *** Murray: I understand that your seeing between 140 and 180 patients a day coming into the ER? Baxley: Yes. Murray: Which is pretty significant …

Baxley: Initially we saw kind of a drop, with people afraid to come to the hospital. But now that that’s kinda gone away, and people are coming in, and we’re getting COVID and regular emergencies and it’s just stockpiling. … The bed situation is dire, the beds are filling up. The people who get sick with COVID and are coming in to the hospital, it’s not a two-day stay or a threeday stay. These people stay for weeks or months and occupy a bed in the hospital that would be used for the care of other patients. That’s now not available. Murray: You went live today about your day. You treated a guy patient who had a heart attack, I think … Baxley: Oh yes. Treated a heart attack today in the hallway. No monitor, no … well, we eventually got help. And the only place to put them was in the hallway because every bed was occupied and a large majority of that was from patients with COVID. Unvaccinated patients with COVID. *** Murray: I keep telling people, being unvaccinated and going into the hospital, you’re really putting other people that are not COVID patients at risk. Baxley: Absolutely. That’s kind of what I’ve been talking about for a while. COVID doesn’t just hurt people that get COVID. This is how COVID kills people that

*** Murray: FDA gave approval last week … Baxley: Yes. Murray: … which I think was a really important milestone … Baxley: Huge. Murray: … because I’ve heard from a lot of folks, “Well, it’s not even FDA approved.” Baxley: Huge milestone. Murray: But I hear often from folks that the vaccines were developed so quickly and how were we able to develop them so quickly and because they were developed so quickly, there’s a concern. I tell folks, “It’s good to be skeptical these days.” I’m a skeptic by nature. I think it’s important for folks to do there own research, to look at things, to ask questions, to look at different sources. But at a certain point, you have to make a decision based on all the data that’s presented to you. So will you talk a little bit about the FDA approval process or the clinical trials or the why the perception that is was created so quickly may be inaccurate? Baxley: Like how it was pushed out so fast and how it’s brand new and it’s got to be dangerous because one day it was not here, and now it is here? I get that question a lot, and it has to do, … of course it’s multi-factorial, … the way they pushed it out so fast … both in study design and some factors they had in their favor, one of which is anytime you try to study a new medication or new vaccine, you have to have willing participants to participate in the study. And that’s one of the hardest parts is going knocking on doors and like, “hey, can we get you to participate in this trial?” A lot of people … Murray: Don’t want to be guinea pigs? Baxley: Right. Well, not now. When it first rolled out and the vaccine trials started, hundreds of thousands of people tried to sign up to participate in this trial, so there was no shortage of participants. The other thing is
the data analyzed throughout the world was made freely available, so people in Chine sequenced the genome of the virus, and instead of keeping it to themselves, they released it,and gave charge to whatever scientist could start working on this. And the other thing is that the mRNA, the science behind it is not necessarily new. It was already around. For decades, for 20 years. They’ve already used it in Guinea and Sierra Leone to stop an ebola outbreak. … So the science was there, the participants were there. They green lighted it and fully funded it and pushed it forward. The analogy is, the best way to put it … you’re in an ambulance, you’re sick or injured and you need to get to the hospital quickly and safely. You just turn the sirens on and everyone moves out of the way and you make it easily to the hospital. … They green lighted it, they funded it, they had a ton of willing participants and they studied it quickly. They didn’t skip any of the steps that the FDA requires for approval. There’s a clear step-wise process that they have to follow to … be approved. They didn’t skip any of those steps. There’s two governing bodies that look at and analyze the data that come from these safety trials, and those two, one advises the CDC and one advises the FDA, and they’re made up of scientists. Not politicians or government officials. These are scientists and doctors at the top of their field that loo at this data and say, with certainty, that this is safe and this is effective. And honestly, it’s the safest vaccine that we have to date. *** Baxley: I’ve never seen small pox. And I’ve never seen polio. And I never will. Because someone made a vaccine. And people took it. And it’s gone. Mike McCombs is the editor of The Island News and can be reached at TheIslandNews@gmail.com.

A teen might feel suicidal due to certain life circumstances such as: • Having a psychiatric disorder, such as depression, an anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder or oppositional defiant disorder • Family history of mood disorder, suicide or suicidal behavior • History of physical or sexual abuse or exposure to violence or bullying • A substance use disorder • Access to means, such as firearms or medications • Exposure to the suicide of a family member or friend • Loss of or conflict with close friends or family members • Physical or medical issues, such as changes related to puberty or a chronic illness • Being lesbian, gay, bisexual or any other sexual minority youth • Being adopted Children who have attempted suicide in the past are also at greater risk. In the U.S., suicide attempts are more common in adolescent girls than boys. But boys are more likely to die by suicide than are girls.
What are the warning signs that a teen might be suicidal?
Warning signs of teen suicide might include: • Talking or writing about suicide — for example, making statements such as "I'm going to kill myself," or "I won't be a problem for you much longer" • Withdrawing from social contact • Having mood swings • Increasing use of alcohol or drugs • Feeling trapped, hopeless
KNOW THE SIGNS
SEPTEMBER IS “NATIONAL SUICIDE PREVENTION MONTH”
Suicidal thoughts, much like mental health conditions, can affect anyone regardless of age, gender or background. Suicidal thoughts, although common, should not be considered normal and often indicate more serious issues. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illnesses, 78% of all people who die by suicide are male. Although more women than men attempt suicide, men are nearly 4x more likely to die by suicide.
• • •
•
or helpless about a situation Changing normal routine, including eating or sleeping patterns Doing risky or self-destructive things Giving away belongings when there is no other logical explanation for why this is being done Developing personality changes or being severely anxious or agitated when experiencing some of the warning signs listed above
What can you do to prevent teen suicide?
You can take steps to help protect your teen. For example: • Talk about mental health and suicide. Don't wait for your teen to come to you. • Pay attention. Listen to what your child is saying and watch how he or she is acting. Never shrug off threats of suicide as teen melodrama. • Discourage isolation. Encourage your teen to spend time with supportive friends and family. • Monitor and talk about social media use. While social media can give teens valuable support, it can also expose them to bullying, rumor spreading, unrealistic views of other people's lives and peer pressure. • Encourage a healthy lifestyle. Help your teen eat well, exercise and get regular sleep. • Support the treatment plan. If your teen is undergoing treatment for suicidal behavior, remind him or
her that it might take time to feel better. Help your teen follow his or her doctor's recommendations. Also, encourage your teen to participate in activities that will help him or her rebuild confidence. • Monitor medications. Though it's uncommon, some teens might have an increase in suicidal thoughts or behavior when taking antidepressants, especially in the first few weeks after starting or when a dose is changed. But antidepressants are more likely to reduce suicide risk in the long run by improving mood. If your teen has suicidal thoughts while taking an antidepressant, immediately contact the doctor or get emergency help. • Safely store firearms, alcohol and medications. Access to means can play a role if a teen is already suicidal. If you're worried about your teen, talk to him or her and seek help right away.
If any of these signs are present, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255. • Talking about death or suicide • Seeking methods for self harm, such as searching online or obtaining a gun • Talking about feeling hopeless or having no reason to live
Warning Signs of Suicide in Adults
The following warning signs may be present in adults who have a high risk for suicide: • Depression or other mental health condition, such as severe anxiety, bipolar disorder (manic-depressive illness), or schizophrenia • Depression followed by sudden cheerfulness and contentment, which may mean the person has made a decision to finalize a suicide plan • A previous suicide attempt • Substance use disorder • Preoccupation with death in conversations • Giving away personal possessions
Factors that may increase the risk of suicide include having: • A family member who has died by suicide. • A family history of depression, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia. • A history of physical or sexual abuse. • Diagnosis of a serious medical illness. • Failing relationships.
• A divorce. • A recent life change, such as a death of a spouse or other member of the family, marriage, break-up of a marriage, the birth of a child, a job loss, a job promotion or demotion, or legal problems. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued an advisory on antidepressant medicines and the risk of sui-
cide. Talk to your doctor about these possible side effects and the warning signs of suicide.

Emergency essentials: Putting together a survival kit
By Mayo Clinic Staff Emergency essentials kits can help you respond to natural disasters or other serious situations. Prepare for the unexpected by putting together a survival kit that could be useful if you needed to evacuate your home. Pack enough supplies to last three days, and keep your emergency essentials handy. Make sure your family members know where to find the kit. Consider keeping basic emergency
essentials in your car as well. A basic emergency essentials kit includes: • Small, waterproof flashlight or headlamp and extra batteries • Waterproof matches • Water, 1 gallon a person for each day • Food that won't spoil, including baby food if needed • Manual can opener for food • Pet food and supplies,
such as a leash, if needed • Small notepad and waterproof writing instrument • Blanket • Cellphone with solar charger • Battery-powered or handcranked radio and a weather radio with tone alert and extra batteries for both • Insect repellent • Whistle • First-aid kit • Dust mask

HEALTH & WELLNESS Options & References for a Healthier Life
Fire cider is a tonic containing many spicy ingredients. It is an alternative medicine that proponents claim may have many potential health benefits, such as helping boost immunity and improving well-being. Some people might consider trying fire cider due to its numerous purported health benefits. Others may simply enjoy the flavor and consume it as a beverage or dressing. Although fire cider does contain many ingredients that may be associated with health benefits, no research has yet proven these claims. Fire cider is a type of oxymel, which is an herbal remedy. Its name comes from the ancient Greek word oxymeli, which means acid and honey. Folk herbalist and founder of the California School of Herbal Studies, Rosemary Gladstar, coined the term fire cider and its particular recipe in the late 1970s. The tonic contains apple cider vinegar (ACV), honey, and several other ingredients that may help support health and wellness. Since it is a folk recipe, there are countless variations in its ingredients. However, aside from ACV and honey, all fire cider recipes typically include five other basic ingredients: horseradish, ginger, chili peppers, garlic, and onion. People can also add other ingredients, such as turmeric, citrus, and herbs. People may use fire cider as a natural remedy against the flu and common colds. Additionally, people may consider fire cider to help relieve nasal congestion, support digestion, warm the body during cold seasons, and boost immunity.
What is fire cider? ACV
ACV is a popular ingredient in many alternative medicines due to its potential antibacterial and antioxidant properties. A 2021 in vitro study suggests that ACV can kill both methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and resistant Escherichia coli. These two bacteria are resistant to many treatments and infections, and they can cause life threatening complications. Some evidence also suggests that combining ACV with a restricted calorie diet may be an effective strategy for improving body composition, reducing cholesterol and triglyceride levels, improving visceral adiposity index, and increasing “good” cholesterol in people with obesity.
Honey
Similar to ACV, people have used honey for centuries due to its health benefits— specifically its antimicrobial and antibacterial effects. Raw honey can help with allergies, soothe a sore throat, and is rich in antioxidants. Honey should not be given to infants or children younger than two years old. One 2020 study suggests that honey could offer health benefits in the diet due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
ple use it to relieve the symptoms of arthritis, muscle pain, and menstrual cramps. One 2019 study suggests that ginger can improve rheumatoid arthritis by decreasing disease activity by expressing immunity and inflammation genes.
FIRE CIDER RECIPE
Chili pepper Horseradish
People may use horseradish to address sinus problems, common colds, coughs, urinary and respiratory tract infections, and kidney stones. People may also use horseradish to boost their immunity. A 2021 study suggests that a recombinant variant of an enzyme isolated from horseradish may have a potential use in targeted cancer treatment.
Similar to the other ingredients, chili pepper—specifically the compound capsaicin, which is present in chili peppers—may have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. It may also help improve circulation, alleviate pain, and improve metabolism and digestion. A 2020 systematic review and meta-analysis indicates that consuming chili pepper may help reduce the risk of death due to heart disease and cancer.
Other ingredients
Onion
Onion is a common household ingredient that some evidence suggests may help reduce the risk of stomach and colorectal cancers. Onion is also a good source of vitamin C, which is essential for skin and hair health, as it helps produce and maintain collagen levels. One 2021 study suggests that onion extract is a promising anticancer agent, either as a protective agent or combined with chemotherapy as a treatment.
As well as the ingredients above, some herbalists include other elements—such as citrus fruits, turmeric, rosemary, thyme, and cinnamon— in their recipes. People may use turmeric for arthritis pain, weight loss, and digestive issues. One 2019 review suggests that curcumin, which is turmeric’s active component, has anticancer potential. However, more research is underway to validate its effectiveness. Citrus fruits such as lemons and oranges contain antioxidants that can help reduce inflammation, lower cholesterol, and increase weight loss. Thyme may help boost brain function and memory, while rosemary may be useful for improving mood and decreasing anxiety.
Many people may use ginger as a home remedy for pain and inflammation. It may help soothe an upset stomach, relieve nausea, and help lower blood sugar levels. Some peo-
Garlic
People may use garlic to help treat or prevent a vast range of conditions, including atherosclerosis, osteoarthritis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, coronary heart disease, and certain types of
Since fire cider is a tonic remedy, there are many variations of how to make it. People can add and change the proportions of the ingredients to suit their tastes and preferences. The fire cider ingredients and recipe listed below are based on Gladstar’s recipe for making fire cider.
Ingredients • • • • •
fresh horseradish onion garlic fresh ginger powdered or fresh cayenne pepper • honey • raw, unpasteurized ACV
NOTE: Taking turmeric may cause stomach upset, nausea, or diarrhea. Unpasteurized honey may contain bacteria and toxins that may be harmful to a young child. To be sure that fire cider is safe for them, people who are living with digestive or metabolic disorders, are pregnant, are nursing, or are taking medications should consult a doctor before consuming it.
Instructions
Just as there is no evidence to support consuming fire cider for health benefits, there are also no reported risks associated with it. However, there are potential side effects related to its ingredients. ACV is highly acidic, so it may cause stomach irritation or worsen acid reflux. The American Dental Asso-
1. Take equal parts of horseradish, onion, and garlic and half part of ginger to prevent it from overpowering the rest of the flavors. Chop the horseradish, onion, garlic, and fresh ginger. Place them into a glass canning jar, then fill the jar with the ACV. 2. Once filled, add onefourth of powdered cayenne pepper or more to taste. It should be hot but tolerable. Close the lid and blend everything. Use parchment paper or wax paper under the cap if it is metal to prevent the vinegar from causing the metal lid to rust. 3.

Potential benefits
There is currently no research that supports the health benefits purportedly associated with fire cider. However, many people use this folk remedy due to a host of potential benefits that relate to its ingredients. Here are some of these potential benefits in more detail:

about 4 weeks. Do not store it for longer than this, as the vinegar may further break down the ingredients, which may cause the mixture to turn opaque and thick. Storing it for a while allows the mixture to infuse. Individuals may check and shake the jar once per day. 4. Once the mixture has infused, strain the pulp out using a cheesecloth. Add honey to taste and blend well until it mixes thoroughly to create a hot, sweet, sour, and spicy tonic. Some variations to this recipe include adding lemons, oranges, and herbs such as rosemary, thyme, and star anise. People can add these ingredients along with the base ingredients.
Serving suggestions
Anecdotally, people usually take 1–2 tablespoons daily as an immune booster. However, people who find the tonic strong can dilute it in a glass of water. Some people may only take it if they feel a cold coming or to help warm themselves up during the winter season. Individuals can use the tonic as part of their daily nutrition. Many people may use it as a salad dressing, vinaigrette, or add-on to teas, soups, and stews. It can also add flavor to cooked foods. Some people also add it to cocktails.
Summary
Fire cider is a natural tonic that some people suggest may improve health. Although there are studies that support the benefits of its ingredients, there is currently no evidence as to the benefits of fire cider itself. There are also no known side effects in pregnant people, people who are breastfeeding, or people with underlying conditions such as diabetes. However, these groups should still inform a doctor before taking fire cider in order to prevent any potential complications. Source: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/fire-cider-benefits?
In the News . . . Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center developing new breast cancer detection laboratory test A novel laboratory test in development by researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center may be used to help quickly distinguish breast cancer from benign disease. The breast cancer detection assay (BCDA) examines cells from enlarged lymph nodes in the armpit adjacent to a breast and finds chemical markers that indicate metastatic breast cancer or a benign condition, such as an infection. If validated in larger studies, this test could be used in outpatient settings to help providers more quickly determine the extent of disease
and more effectively design treatment plans. A report on the research was published online July 7, 2021 in NPJ—Breast Cancer. Understanding lymph node status is an important factor in developing breast cancer treatment regimens because it can indicate possible metastasis, or cancer spread, says senior study author Saraswati Sukumar, Ph.D., Barbara B. Rubenstein Professor of Oncology and professor of pathology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Various imaging tests including ultrasound, mammography and MRI can provide some information on axillary lymph nodes prior to surgery to aid in staging and treatment. However, the accuracy of these techniques can be relatively low. Cytology and histopathology, a more in-depth study of cells and tissue under a microscope, depend on the expertise and
availability of a pathologist, which are often not common in middle- and low-income countries. “A simple test with a high level of sensitivity and specificity as well as a quick turnaround time for accurate determination of a suspicious lymph node as benign or positive for cancer is urgently needed,” Sukumar says. “BCDA can provide results within a few hours of the fine needle aspiration procedure, reducing time to diagnosis.” She adds that test results also could be used to determine which patients with breast cancers need to have more invasive lymph node dissection measures. “This test could be a really great adjunct to the detection of breast cancer,” Sukumar says. “The assay is self-contained, and the answers are derived from a computer, so any technician, with a little training, can do it.”

Historical preservation is no small deal
I
t's quite easy now to get information or conduct research on any subject through the internet. What is more difficult, it seems, is having the time (or making the time) to get accurate information. But I’d like to shed some light on at least one subject: The apparent disconnect that exists between the Beaufort Historic District Review Board (HDRB) and the Historic Beaufort Foundation (HBF). Since 1965, HBF’s mission statement has been, "HBF is a 501(c)3 not for profit educational foundation created to preserve, protect and present sites and artifacts of historic, architectural and cultural interest throughout Beaufort County, South Carolina. ...” The posted HDRB mission is, “To aid in the preservation, protection and enhancement of the Beaufort National Historic Landmark District,” which is basically the blocks between Hamar and Carteret, Bay and Boundary. You don't need a teacher to tell you these mission
TIM WOOD
statements are close to identical, except the HBF helps to promote historic preservation throughout the county. Dick Stewart, founder and CEO of 303 Associates is a developer who has already made a huge impact on our town. To see his future plans, you can take a virtual tour of what his vision for the two block core of Beaufort’s historic downtown district (https://303associates.com). In March, Stewart wrote a biting letter to the HBF, proudly posted at the bottom of 303 Associates "Projects" tab, criticizing the Foundation. Stewart’s letter followed by two days, an oped piece written by Maxine Lutz, former executive director of HBF. Taken together, these pieces seem to present
a tale of two cities. In my opinion, most of what 303 Associates has done for Beaufort (in general) has been for the good of the community, such as the Beaufort Town Center and Newcastle Square on Boundary Street and the Old Bay Marketplace. But in overall aesthetics for his latest proposals, particularly those located in the historic downtown core district, I think 303 Associates missed the mark. What is surprising and disappointing to me is the apparent disconnect between our HDRB and the HBF. Here you have two entities that have "historic" in their names with extremely similar mission statements and yet conflict seems to be their main historical trait. We presume both entities wish to maintain and augment continued historical integrity, along with growth, of not only our historical "district" but the entirety of our downtown and its’ surrounding neighborhoods. We believe the vast majority of our citizens want to live
in an aesthetically pleasing place. So why are the HBF and the HDRB not working together to form that common bond? One could argue that the HBF has a clear mission towards historical preservation and integrity and the HDRB is appointed by City council which makes them a political entity. Whether or not our city government is pro-development, driven by socioeconomic forces, elitist leanings, anti-growth or a diverse combination of all these ideologies, the real effort now should be isolating how the HBF and HDRB can develop a more productive relationship with the ultimate goal of keeping our pride of place and our own, old "Beaufort Charm" within the onslaught of development. After considerable discussion last year, the Council passed an ordinance confirming one seat on the five-member HDRB for the HBF. While city ordinances now say the HDRB will have on its board one advocate
of the HBF, the city council has the final vote on that appointment, so it basically is still a political appointment. I would advocate that this ordinance be amended to allow two seats to be filled on the HDRB (as well as on the city's Design Review Board) with those seats endorsed by the HBF. In addition, I think the sitting chairperson from the HBF should have a vote in making those appointments, to both the HDBF and DRB. This would give some teeth to the hard and tedious work the HBF endeavors to do in the name of Beaufort's history. Historical preservation is no small deal. We are blessed to live in a beautiful city between two crown jewels of the country's entire historical district protection plan, Charleston and Savannah. Both communities have tackled the complicated relationship between development and re-development inside national historical districts. But as the National Park Service has said it’s taking a closer look at Beaufort’s
National Register of Historic Places designation because of structural changes, and just recently the NPS has changed the status of Savannah historic district designation from “satisfactory” to “threatened.” Historical Preservation is hard, diligent work. It makes good sense for Beaufortonians to connect the dots with our neighbors rich in historic heritage – Charleston and Savannah – rather than contributing to a gap between them.

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back
I
t is Friday, and I’m in North Adams, Mass. It’s overcast, maybe 60 degrees, and my wife, Susan, is still sleeping. This morning I have a cup of Pfeffercorn’s Whole Bean roasted in Baltimore. This morning I’m sitting in our loft, in the same room where men, women and children once operated large, loud textile looms. The Eclipse Mill, built in the 1880s, was in the business of making what was called “gray cloth.” That unfinished cloth was then “finished and printed” in another nearby mill — some of it going into uniforms. The four-storied, thickbricked textile mills in Massachusetts first relied on water power from a nearby river; but they also relied on raw cotton, raised in post-war Mississippi and South Carolina. And then there were the millhands who actually op-
SCOTT GRABER
erated the carding, twisting and weaving machines. During most of its history, The Eclipse Mill was powered by French Canadian immigrants. They were overwhelmingly Catholic and their largely empty (often demolished) churches are now silent, red brick testimony of their passage and assimilation. One of these immigrants was Josephat Adams. I have this information because Lewis Hine (the famous reformer-photographer) came through here in 1911 taking the 10-year-old boy’s picture. Hine’s caption reads, “Josep-
hat Adams, 107 Front Street, works in the twisting room at Eclipse Mill.” It may be of some local interest that Lewis Hine also came to Port Royal, taking photographs of 8-year-old oyster-shucking girls then employed at the Maggione Oyster Company. But as I sip my second cup of Pfeffercorn’s Baltimore roasted coffee, “107 Front Street” rings some distant, strangely familiar bell. Then, suddenly, I realize I can actually see 107 Front Street from where I’m sitting. The building at 107 Front Street is a dilapidated, two-storied, asbestos-sided house sitting just across the Hoosic River. The house is one of five identical duplexes that housed mill workers. The 1910 Census says that Josephat Adams was born in Quebec but by 1910 was living in the desperate-looking duplex with his parents
and five siblings. Hine said he worked in the “twisting room” which was where the strands of fiber were twisted together to form yarn. Most millhands, including children, worked 10 to 12 hours a day, amidst dust, lint and the deafening noise of the machines. Girls made 6 dollars a week, boys made a little less. By 1910 textile mills in New England were being threatened by worker unrest, unions, and by cheaper labor in places like South Carolina. The South, once the domain of the crop lien system, now paid-out weekly wages to folks who previously lived from one unpredictable harvest to the next. And so Southern, Upstate farmers traded-in their unstable farm income for 10-hour work days that came with lint that would eventually migrate to their lungs and shorten their lives. Although the Southern mills also relied
on children like Josephat Adams, Hine’s photographs and the efforts of other reformers would eventually end the practice of using nimble-fingered children. Today the American textile industry is relocated to China, India and Bangladesh. It is hard to find a shirt or trousers made in the United States. But lately, unexpectedly, there has been a dramatic upswing in costs that have off-set the cheap labor advantage enjoyed by Southeast Asia. This has everything to do with the cost of transportation from China. A year ago the price of getting a 40-foot long container from Shanghai was $1800.00. Today that same container will cost $10,000. No one knows how long these prices will last, but if they persist we may see the return of textile manufacturing to the United States. This may have collateral impact on Beaufort and,
especially Jasper counties because 40 percent of the traffic into and out of the Port of Savannah is Chinese. Joe (formerly Josephat) Adams was described as a “straight shooter” who loved listening to his transistor radio as he reclined in his Lazy Boy. More often than not he was listening to the New York Yankees — something of an outlier here in Red Sox country — as he sat just across the Hoosic at 107 Front Street. Those who knew him said Joe loved fishing for WallEyed Pike on Lake Champlain, and that he “read the newspaper everyday, cover to cover, ending the process by doing the crossword puzzle.” Josephat Adams was lucky, fortunate to live into and to enjoy his old age.

change. Although my visits to the Red Maple had become few and far between, it didn't change the enormous loss I felt when its roots rose, and its limbs fell. Such a distinct memory follows me still. Now I watch my daughter develop a devotion to the marshlands and the twists and turns of the waterway. I believe it is her Red Maple. I let her get skinned knees, venture just out of my view, and overcome the challenges presented. She will learn endurance, patience, and how to survive a fall.

The cause of death was ‘terminal stupidity’
thought “Death by Stupidity” was a hit Hollywood thriller by Alfred Hitchcock from the 1950’s. What do I know? Stupidity Category I. Just when you thought folks couldn’t top the lunacy of POTUS’s suggestion to drink Clorox to kill COVID-19, along comes a new idiocy – ivermectin. It cannot be true that over 88,000 Americans (as of Aug. 30) have taken ivermectin as a protective against COVID-19; after which they got sick, called the Poison Center of their choice, and some died. I cannot believe that here are that many totally insane Americans. Listen carefully, SARCoV-2 (aka COVID-19) is a coronavirus, one of thousands of coronaviruses. Clue word … virus. COVID-19 is a bloody virus. Get it? My veterinarians used ivermectin at the monkey farm to treat monkeys for parasites. It is also used on cows, horses, and various other non-human animals to treat parasites (worms usually).
DAVID TAUB
Repeat out loud: “Parasites are not Viruses. Covid-19 is a virus. Ergo, do not buy and consume ivermectin.” If you have worms, take it. If you want to avoid COVID-19, get vaccinated. One of my friends emailed me that the Wall Street Journal has scooped me on this “stupidity” business. Darn. I quote (reference WSJ, Aug. 30, second sentence): “We live in a golden age of stupidity.” I am stunned to learn that the WSJ is a “fake-news, left-wing, liberal screed of a newspaper.” Who woulda thunk that? Go figure. Stupidity Category II. Refusal to get vaccinated for COVID-19. Hello out there. COVID vaccines have been proven to be effective and
safe, readily available and vaccinations are free. Some folks are getting paid to be vaccinated — where do I sign-up and get paid for my booster? I recently devoted a piece to those who refuse to get vaccinated. Sincere thanks to all of you who sent me kudos for that article — next time, please copy the editor to save me the trouble. If you didn’t like it (heaven forbid), email Duffy Stone. Mathematics is a pure science. No theories, no speculation, no guessing; just rules and axioms. Humans lie; numbers don’t. At least 80 million Americans are not vaccinated. Today, infections and hospitalizations exceed 150,000 per day. Our nation’s hospitals no longer have empty ICU units. Folks with other life-threatening medical maladies, such as heart attacks, strokes, gunshot wounds, and injuries from car accidents, are being turned away because unvaccinated folks occupy those previously available hospital
beds. Well more than 90 of new COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations reside in folks who are not vaccinated. As Dragnet’s Sgt. Friday would say, “just the facts ma’am, just the facts.” Here boys and girls are the facts. They are bad now; think what the COVID-19 landscape will look like when winter arrives in a few short months, with the flu riding shotgun, if unvaccinated “patriots” continue their unquenched thirst for “Freedumb?” It will be devastating, with 100,000 more deaths projected before the end of the year, all of them totally unnecessary. To date (Aug. 29), 647,356 Americans have died from COVID-19, the highest total world-wide; 156,886 are hospitalized with COVID-19; nationwide, 1,521 folks died on Sept. 2 from it, and a total of almost 40 million cases (underestimated) of COVID-19 have been reported for America. It would be “poetic justice” if every U.S. hospital set aside sufficient beds/ICU

versity’s National Center for Disaster Preparedness: “The only functional strategy we have for getting control of COVID-19 is vaccination.” Note hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, Clorox, acid-laced Kool-Aid, snake oil, or any other nonsensical potions do not appear on this list of prophylactics. What should be done with COVIDiots? Remember polio, scarlet fever, chicken pox, small pox, measles, rubella and mumps. Vaccinations to the rescue. Only one thing will save you, your children, your grandchildren, and everyone else from COVID. Get vaccinated! Dammit it all! What do you not understand? Vaccination. It is the only way to stop this vicious killer from continuing to kill. Period. End of story.

units for maladies “other than COVID-19 infections.” It is crystal clear that these “freedumb” patriots, who wage war against vaccination, hate themselves and the rest of us. Recently, anti-vaxxer protestors shut down a freefor-all COVID-vaccination clinic, a criminal variety of stupidity. Medical science has not yet invented a safe and effective vaccine for the infection of stupidity. But, even if we did, these “sunshine patriots” would not take it anyway. COVID-Delta rages, spreading devastation across America. “Red” state, GOP governors are taking sweeping action barring compulsory vaccinations and wearing masks; these imbeciles proclaim a clear and present danger — not a danger from Covid-19, mind you, but a (false) threat to individual freedumb.

Never give up
After being medically discharged from recruit training for asthma in 2013, Pfc. Austin Hershberger showed remarkable resilience and grit in achieving his dream of becoming a United States Marine. Eight years later, Hershberger graduated with Golf Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, on Aug. 13, 2021. Photo by Lance Cpl. Godfrey Ampong, USMC.
8 years of earning the title of US Marine By Lance Cpl. Ryan Hageali, USMC

ustin Hershberger arrived at Parris Island in 2013, as he steadily progressed in training, he could hear the Eagle, Globe and Anchor calling his name. However, he could not anticipate the time, perseverance, and dedication it would take to earn the title of United States Marine. “During grass week, we were marching to the chow hall, and I just collapsed in the middle of the road,” said Hershberger. “I don't remember the ambulance ride or really getting in it; I woke up in the hospital.” Hershberger was diagnosed with pneumonia and placed in a holding platoon. He continued to be evaluated over the next week until he was cleared. To continue training he had to complete a physical fitness test. Unable to finish, he was sent back to medical and was eventually diagnosed with asthma which led to his discharge from Recruit Training. “I remember speaking to my drill instructor before I left and I told him I’ll be back,” Hershberger said. After returning home, Hershberger immediately wanted to return to Parris Island but had to wait six months before his chance to return to recruit training.
Although he desired to become a Marine, Hershberger had other responsibilities he had to consider. “I had a daughter, and I wasn’t necessarily focused on the Marine Corps at that time, but I was still working on it,” said Hershberger. “I would stay in touch with recruiters to see if there were any updates, but I wasn't actively pursuing it as hard as I had in the past.” After six long years, Hershberger was
able to begin the process of earning his Eagle, Globe, and Anchor once again. After getting in touch with a recruiter who began working with him, Hershberger took numerous medical tests to prove he didn’t have asthma. “It was a long process and, honestly, I would not be here without the recruiter I have now,” said Hershberger. “The recruiter pushed all the paperwork to MEPS (Military Entrance Processing Station)
and stayed on top of it.” After eight years, on May 3, 2021, Hershberger was given a chance to return to Parris Island and once again attempt to earn the title Marine. “I felt good,” said Hershberger. “I knew when I stepped on the yellow footprints, all that was going on in my head was ‘let’s get this done.’” After a long and stressful path, Hershberger was finally back in training. He said this time he was determined, and nothing would stop him from obtaining his goal. In addition to overcoming adversity throughout recruit training, Hershberger also stepped up and was placed in the leadership position of platoon guide. “A lot of recruits here ask me why I came back. My answer was always ‘I think I am meant to be here,’” Hershberger said. “The discipline and high standards the Marine Corps has, that’s something I wanted to strive to have.” After facing the trials and tribulations eight years earlier, Hershberger finally claimed the title of U.S. Marine and received his Eagle, Globe, and Anchor on July 31, 2021, and graduated from recruit training two weeks later.
Military & Civilian Leadership – A guide for military, civil service, political, and industry leaders
L
ooking you in the eye, kicking you in the backside, covering your six (flank), and taking your Marine’s or soldier’s (or employee’s) place on the most dangerous mission is leadership. Knowing there is a place for everything and everything in its place is leadership. Admitting mistakes and learning from them is leadership. Going through the food line last is leadership. Leaving the pickup zone (PZ) last on the last helicopter is leadership. Going up the hill first and pulling your troops up behind you is leadership. Packing your own roll and digging your own hole is leadership. Making every troop and employee an expert in common tasks is leadership. Making certain every Marine, soldier, sailor, airmen, and Coast Guardsman has the ability and training to, if needed, fight as an Infantryman is leadership. Leadership is caring, compassion, understanding, and leading by example. Leadership is treating all prisoners and detainees in accordance with the Geneva Convention and other appropriate protections. Leadership knows that legal and ethical treatment of enemy prison-

ers is absolutely essential to having any kind of chance of getting the same humane treatment, from our enemies, for our military members who become Prisoners of War (POWs). Leadership is command and control and collaboration and creativity. Simple, easy-to-understand orders come from the best leaders. Leaders make sure the enemy gives his life for his cause. Leadership ensures his or her troops always have the tactical advantage, best training, best equipment, and the highest morale, and plenty of water, rest, and hot food. The tides, the channels, the seasons, the winds, the hazards, the weather, the enemy (or for industry – the competition), the terrain, and the best forecast are all known by good leaders. Leadership is not promoting or supporting racism, injustice, and extremist groups like Neo Nazis, white supremacists, and anti-Semitics.
Leadership is not bragging to and threatening troops and employees. Leadership is not disrespecting our allies and their leaders. Leadership is not catering to and complementing our worst enemies, like Russia and North Korea. Leadership drives the fear of employees, customers, vendors, and others making complaints and suggestions out of the workplace. Good leaders teach employees to “skip think” by looking past the initial negative feelings about complaints and instead learns to see each complaint as a gold mine of good ideas. Breaking large problems down into small problems is leadership. Making quality and standards visible is leadership. Designing services and products on the needs and expectations of customers is leadership. Listening to the voice of your customers is leadership. Knowing that people work in the system and the leader’s job is to work on improving the system is leadership. Leadership is teaching managers and employees team meeting skills including: • Agreeing in advance on an objective; • Developing an agenda; • Setting time limits for

discussion and brainstorming; • Listening more and resolving conflicts politely; and • Critiquing their meetings. Leadership knows it is most important for each manager and employee to know what his or her job is, which frequently does not resemble his or her job title. New leaders know that one of the first questions they should ask is, “Where are your process maps for your work processes?” Good leaders know the great value of giving team and individual awards, as soon as possible after exceptional performance. Leadership comes from experience, but experience comes from making some mistakes. A leader changes the odds and knows the risks. Leaders develop and reward teamwork. Leadership knows that
the one most important word is “we” and the least most important word is “I”. Leadership knows there is no end to change, except failure. Leadership knows that if you treat every customer (and trooper) like your last or first, you would never have to worry about repeat business or recruitment. Leaders often make good grades in school, have numerous years of formal education, and many important degrees. Less often however, they also have been known to fail math, English, Spanish, and other equally important subjects. Leaders work hard at ensuring the workload is distributed equally among all troops and workers. Leadership comes from family, friends, teachers, coaches, peers, officers, Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs), warrant officers, commissioned officers, and chaplains. Simple,
easy-to-understand orders come from good leaders. Complex tasks are changed into short and accurate plans through leadership. Leadership can be learned and taught, but it cannot be forgotten nor bought. Leadership can be seen, tasted, smelled, felt, and heard, and it can come from a blind person with no hands who cannot hear, speak, or walk. Good leaders look at everything (errors, infections, mistakes, accidents, employee turnover, waste, HAZMAT spills, losses, violence, complaints, harassment, fires, floods, crime, illiteracy, etc.) as controllable and preventable. Good leaders see the need for never-ending and continuous improvement. So, what are you going to do? Lead, follow, or get out of the way! Larry Dandridge is a retired Lt. Col. In the U.S. Army.

Beaufort completes Georgia sweep with win over Cadets
By Justin Jarrett The Beaufort Eagles have run the Georgia gauntlet. Tyler Haley threw a touchdown pass to Zyrin Odom and added two 1-yard touchdown runs in the second half, and Beaufort High’s defense slowed down another Peach State power in a 33-23 home win over Benedictine on Friday night. Haley passed for 282 yards and a score and added 53 rushing yards and two scores, Amariee Morris rushed for 121 yards and a TD, and Odom finished with six catches for 136 yards in an impressive offensive display from the Eagles. Beaufort gashed the Cadets on the ground with Morris and Haley picking up big chunks, and Haley picked apart the defense, throwing deep jump balls for Odom, whose basketball prowess has translated splendidly to the gridiron, and finding McLeod Reichel tight end Michael Dennison underneath. Reichel caught six passes for 73 yards, and Dennison added six grabs for 68 yards. The Eagles marched down the field on the opening drive, punching it in on a 2-yard Morris run, but Benedictine’s Justin Thomas took the ensuing kickoff 90 yards to tie it at 7. Haley and Auburn commit Holden Geriner traded punches, as Haley and Odom hooked up on

Benedictine seemed to have made a pivotal stop when the Eagles punted from near midfield in the waning minutes of the half, but the Cadets coughed up the ball on the return, and Beaufort cashed in with a 36-yard Joe Caprarola field
goal for a 17-14 halftime lead. Caprarola added a 21-yard field goal to stretch the lead to six after a strong goal-line stand from the Cadets, and Beaufort’s defense came up with a stop, but Benedictine pinned the Eagles deep, and penalties backed them up farther. The momentum turned when the Eagles’ punt snap sailed out of

the end zone for a safety, and after the free kick, Thomas promptly broke a tackle and raced 44 yards for a score to give Benedictine a 23-20 lead with 4:01 left in the third quarter. Haley and the Eagles kept marching. They moved down the field with precision, and Haley capped it off with a 1-yard plunge
to push Beaufort back in front. Then the defense showed its mettle, forcing a fumble to set Beaufort up at the Benedictine 35, leading to another Haley sneak that all but sealed it. Geriner and the Cadets didn’t go quietly, driving deep into Beaufort territory before a fourth-down stop gave the ball back to Haley to finish the job. The Eagles (3-0) will take on their first Palmetto State opponent of the season when they host West Ashley on Friday.
