Eric Childers and Briget Pike exchange rings during their wedding ceremony officiated by Pastor Greg Bentley on Saturday at Dillon Park at softball field No. 1. The couple married during the Sumter First Church of God Palmetto Softball Tournament, the same event they attended last year that “solidified” their relationship, said event organizer Becky Fort.

Couple forms new team with marriage ceremony during softball tourney

“C

ongratulations, and let’s play ball,” was the cry out of left field as the marriage ceremony uniting Eric Childers and Briget Pike concluded Saturday morning on softball

field No. 1 at Dillon Park during the Sumter First Church of God Palmetto Softball Tournament.

While many might consider a softball field an odd place to tie the knot, it seemed natural for the newlyweds from Rock Hill.

“They had been dating when they came (to the tournament) last year, kind of unofficially,” said tournament organizer Becky Fort.

“They kind of solidified that bond last year, and they decided they wanted to get married at the ball tournament because this is where it all happened.”

Fort said she met her husband,

Rob, at a past tournament.

Officiating Saturday’s ceremony was Pastor Greg Bentley of Christ Fellowship Church in Rock Hill, who said he has known the couple for several years.

“The softball tournament is kind of dear to their heart,” he said before the ceremony. “Their previous spouses have passed away, and so this will be a special time for them to get together and spend the rest of their lives together.”

Tax refunds could be delayed for millions with Obamacare

BY RICARDO ALONSOZALDIVAR The Associated Press WASHINGTON — If you got health coverage through President Obama’s law this year, you’ll need a new form from your insurance exchange before you can file your tax return next spring.

Some tax professionals are

worried that federal and state insurance marketplaces won’t be able to get those forms out in time, creating the risk of delayed tax refunds for millions of consumers.

The same federal agency that had trouble launching HealthCare.gov last fall is facing the heaviest lift.

The Health and Human Services Department must send

out millions of the forms, which are like W-2s for people getting tax credits to help pay health insurance premiums.

The form is called a 1095-A, and it lists who in each household has health coverage and how much the government paid each month to subsidize their premiums. Nearly 5 million people have gotten subsidies through HealthCare.gov.

If the forms are delayed past their Jan. 31 deadline, some people may have to wait to file tax returns — and collect their refunds.

A delay of a week or two may not sound like much, but many people depend on their tax refunds to plug holes in family finances.

The uncertainty is unnerving to some tax preparation

companies, which try to run their filing season operations like a military drill. The Obama administration says it’s on task, but it won’t provide much detail.

States operating their own health insurance marketplaces will also have to send out the forms, but the federal

LOCAL BRIEF FROM STAFF REPORTS

Pedestrian killed on 1-20 in Lee County A 23-year-old Union County man was struck and killed by a tractor trailer as he walked in the roadway at the 122 mile marker of southbound Interstate 20 in Lee County at 11 p.m. Friday night, the South Carolina Highway Patrol has reported.

Lee County Coroner Larry Logan said investigators have “no idea” why Thomas Jay Elston of 231 Hancock St., Union, was walking in the roadway.

“We searched up and down the area to see if he had anybody waiting for him in a vehicle or somewhere, but we didn’t find anybody,” Logan said.

Identification was made through an ID found on the body, and family in Union was notified, Logan said.

Frank Pitts, 66, driver of the truck, was not injured.

Public comment being accepted on proposed resurfacing, bridge work

BY RAYTEVIA EVANS ray@theitem.com You can help with projects proposed by our state’s Department of Transportation by commenting on the department’s recommendations for those projects, including ones in the tricounty area.

The comments will be used to help amend the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, which includes $38.2 million in additional federal funding for the projects recommended for the special 2014 Federal Aid Resurfacing and Bridge Deck Preservation Program.

According to SCDOT documents for the program, the department has selected sections of roads in Sumter, Clarendon, Kershaw and Lee counties.

Close to four miles of East Brewington Road are listed as one of the recommendations for reconstruction in Sumter County along with rehabilitation of 1.29 miles of Governor Richardson

Road and West Huggins Street in Clarendon County. Also listed for reconstruction are a little more than two miles on Fort Jackson Road in Kershaw County and rehabilitation of 1.58 miles of Jamestown Road in Lee County.

SCDOT has closed the Lafayette Drive bridge in Sumter for reconstruction and is detouring northbound traffic on the road to Brooklyn Street, and southbound traffic is being directed to Harvin Street. The bridge is expected to be closed until November 2015.

SCDOT is also scheduled to close the Foxworth Mill Road bridge on Sept. 15 for construction, as the road has become structurally deficient.

Bryan Jones, district engineering administrator with SCDOT, said the most impact SCDOT expects by closing the Foxworth Mill Road bridge is to school traffic.

“Sumter County schools may be impacted, and they will be informed of the pending road closure in order to

reroute school bus traffic in the area,” Jones said. “There are no major businesses that will be impacted.”

More than 20 bridges in Sumter County now have weight restrictions and have potential structural deficiencies, according to SCDOT. For more information regarding the program, documents and maps can be found on SCDOT’s website at www. scdot.org. SCDOT is also seeking comments from the public on the proposed 2015 Federal Aid Pavement Improvement Program — which includes projects that have been allotted $111,929,000 and will include reconstruction and rehabilitation of more than 300 miles of roads throughout the state.

To submit comments about the recommendations, send comments to Vivian Patterson, Public Involvement Manager, at SCDOT, 955 Park St., PO Box 191, Columbia, SC 29202, or fill out an email form on the SCDOT’s website.

SCDOT will accept comments through Sept. 15.

Rafting Creek Elementary School Principal Ida Barboza announces her reading challenge to the school during the school’s first reading rally Friday afternoon. Barboza challenged the school to read 5,000 books by the end of the school year, and students raised their right hands and pledged to read each day and night.

5,000 books read equals purple hair, dressing like a chicken

BY RAYTEVIA EVANS ray@theitem.com The Rafting Creek Elementary School Lions got revved up for reading before ending the second week of school in Sumter School District.

With the help of faculty and staff, reading coach Teresa McCray organized a reading rally for the students.

After an introduction and a reading chant to get the students pumped, Principal Ida Barboza announced to her students the school’s reading challenge for the year.

“Our purpose today is to get you started on a high note with reading,” Barboza said Friday afternoon. “Our goal is to read 5,000 books. Everyone

is going to have to participate to reach our goal.”

In the cafetorium during the rally, students excitedly accepted their principal’s challenge and listed their demands if they reach the goal. The students will attempt to reach the goal by the end of the year, and if they reach and/or exceed 5,000 books as a school, Barboza has quite a few challenges ahead of her to complete in return. From pre-K to fifth grade, the students challenged Barboza to be a crossing guard, dress like a chicken, dye/wear purple hair, sit in a pool of Jell-O, complete the recently popular ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and consent to being taped to a wall.

The Rafting Creek teachers and

staff added their own challenge, stating Barboza had to treat them to a seafood buffet if their students succeed in reading 5,000 books by the end of the school year.

The State Department of Education and local educators are pushing the reading and literacy component statewide. State Superintendent of Education Mick Zais recently announced the opening of the Read to Succeed office, which will offer a comprehensive approach to reading that ensures all students develop reading and writing skills to be college and career ready.

The state is also making an effort to review and change the standards for English and language arts in the

state. The S.C. Department of Education’s ELA Writing team — made up of 19 educators throughout the state — is currently working on writing new ELA curriculum for the state expected to be implemented in schools by the 2015-16 school year.

Rafting Creek faculty and staff encouraged students to take the pledge during Friday’s hyped reading rally, where the students pledged to read each day and night. To get them started in the journey of completing the challenge, school nurse Teresa Ketchum read the students a story, and each student was given one book to start on the reading journey before being released for the Labor Day weekend.

Remember your goals this holiday Don’t overindulge on celebration foods

A

s summer comes to a close, family gatherings, pool parties and barbecues are planned for the holiday weekend, and we all know what that means: food. And perhaps a lot of it. Many people who are “on a diet� find that holidays are the perfect time to make an excuse to go off track and splurge on these special foods. While a piece of cake or that favorite burger that your uncle makes won’t ruin Missy your progCorrigan ress, there are people who consume large amounts of foods they don’t regularly eat as if there will never be another holiday or opportunity to eat again.

Even those who start off with the best of intentions can fall off track with the temptation of foods at these events. Consider that traditional celebration foods such as dips, desserts, smothered meats and casseroles are loaded with fat and sugar.

Eating these foods can cause you to take in up to 3,000 calories or more in one meal, which can do quite a bit of damage and even reverse your progress.

Instead of falling off track this weekend, find a way to enjoy the holiday without harming your health or fitness goals. Follow these simple tips to make sure your plans fall around your healthy lifestyle that is supportive of your goals.

PLAN AHEAD Shop ahead of time and buy only what is on your list. Poor planning and waiting until the last minute is often an excuse to eat whatever is quick and available.

CHOOSE HEALTHFUL FOODS Choose a menu of healthful foods, and stick to it. If you don’t buy unhealthful foods, they are not available for you to eat. Choose vegetables and fruits instead of chips and cookies. Choose lean meats instead of those high in saturated fats. Grill your food instead of frying.

EAT THROUGHOUT THE DAY Eat every few hours to keep your metabolism up and your blood sugar steady. Not eating throughout the day can lead to poor choices and binge eating later on in the day. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and to keep your body from confusing thirst for hunger.

EAT SLOWLY Put your fork down between every bite and enjoy it. It takes time for your body to send signals that you are full.

Eating fast not only leads to overeating, but it also deprives you of the pleasure of the flavors in the food, and it can also cause abdominal discomfort and bloating.

AVOID FOOD CONTAMINATION Keep raw meats separate from any other foods. Be sure to cook meats thoroughly.

Avoid leaving perishable foods out for more than 2 hours. If you are outside and it is hotter than 90 degrees, do not leave them out for more than 1 hour.

STAY ACTIVE Plan fun physical activities that will keep your energy levels up and will help prevent overeating.

Seniors trip to prevent future falls

BY LINDSEY TANNER AP Medical Writer CHICAGO — Researchers are tripping seniors on purpose, and it’s not some kind of warped practical joke.

The experiment is among techniques being studied to prevent falls, the leading cause of injury in older adults. Falls in the elderly cost $30 billion yearly to treat and can send them spiraling into poor health and disability.

Conventional efforts to prevent falls include exercises to boost strength and balance, but researchers at the University of Illinois in Chicago are trying a completely different approach. It’s based on promising, preliminary results with a lab-built walkway that causes people to unexpectedly trip, as if stepping on a banana peel.

Now the same scientists are testing a similar approach with computerized treadmills. If it works, they envision specially designed treadmills in doctors’ offices, clinics and physical therapy centers for training people how to avoid falling.

Clive Pai, a physical therapy professor leading the research, calls the method a potential “vaccine against falls.�

Standard fall prevention techniques aim to improve physical condition by strengthening certain muscles and improving range of motion. And they may require dozens of sessions to be effective, Pai said. His research is focusing

We don’t give any instruction. They don’t have to be motivated — they’re naturally motivated because they don’t want to be on the floor,� he said.

Pai has a $1 million, five-year grant from the National Institute on Aging to study and develop the treadmill system and plans to enroll 300 participants within the next five years.

The scientists demonstrated the technique recently in Pai’s lab with 81-year-

old Mary Kaye, who had participated in the preliminary walkway research.

Graduate students taped little sensors to Kaye’s arms and legs to allow her movements to be tracked and analyzed.

Then she was hooked up to a harness attached to an overhead cable to help her remain upright if needed.

First, she used the walkway, striding several paces before a student clicked the computer mouse to make a sliding walkway section move suddenly under Kaye’s feet. Kaye stumbled slightly but kept her balance.

Pai’s preliminary research, published in June, found that 24 similar “trips� in just one walkway session taught older adults to learn to catch themselves and reduced their chances of falling outside the lab, during everyday living, by 50 percent up to a year later.

Back in the lab, Kaye next tried the treadmill, set at a steady walking pace that was occasionally interrupted by sudden brief skips. Kaye stumbled at each jolt but managed to stay afoot. Pai thinks Kaye’s training in the previous study may have helped keep her steady.

Retired from the travel industry and public relations, Kaye is fit and healthy and looks a decade younger but said she still occasionally falls — even after the training. “I land on my face, and it’s usually quite disastrous — for my face. But I recover, and I try to get through another season,� she said.

Experimental Ebola drug heals all monkeys in study

BY MARILYNN MARCHIONE AP Chief Medical Writer

Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which had a role in the work.

It’s not known how well the drug would work in people, who can take up to 21 days to show symptoms and are not infected the way these monkeys were in a lab.

Several experts said it’s not possible to estimate a window of opportunity for treating people, but that it was encouraging that the animals recovered when treated even after advanced disease developed.

The study was published online Friday by the journal Nature.

ZMapp had never been tested in humans before two Americans aid workers who got Ebola while working in Africa were allowed to try it. The rest of the limited supply was given to five others.

There is no more ZMapp now, and once a new batch is ready, it still needs some basic tests before it can be tried again during the African outbreak, Fauci said. “We do need to

Ebola has killed more than 1,500 people this year and the World Health Organization says there could be as many as 20,000 cases before the outbreak is brought under control. On Friday, it spread to a fifth African country — Senegal.

There is no approved vaccine or specific treatment, just supportive care to keep them hydrated and nourished. Efforts have focused on finding cases and tracking their contacts to limit the disease, which spreads through contact with blood and other fluids.

Of the seven people known to have been treated with ZMapp, two have died — a Liberian doctor and a Spanish priest.

The priest received only one of three planned doses. The two Americans recovered, as have two Africans who received ZMapp in Liberia.

Doctors have said there is no way to know whether ZMapp made a difference or the survivors recovered on their own.

Democratic U.S. Senate candidates running to win

BY JEFFREY COLLINS Associated Press Writer AIKEN — This year’s elections give Democrats in South Carolina a rare opportunity to flip the state’s leadership away from the Republican party.

But they will have to overcome decades of Republicans gathering power to do it.

Because of the resignation of U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint in 2012, South Carolina voters are choosing both their U.S. senators as well as the governor.

And unlike recent elections, Democrats have respectable, party-backed candidates running in the races.

Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham is challenged by state Sen. Brad Hutto as he seeks a third term, while GOP Sen. Tim Scott faces Richland County Councilwoman Joyce Dickerson in the race to fill out the final two years of DeMint’s term.

History tends to favor Republicans. A Democrat hasn’t beaten a GOP incumbent in South Carolina since 1998, and a sitting U.S. senator hasn’t lost a race in the state in nearly 50 years. But both Hutto and Dickerson say special circumstances around this year’s elections give them a chance.

In Hutto’s case, his campaign is reminding people that 1998 is the year Democrat Jim Hodges beat incumbent Republican Gov. David Beasley, who wasn’t the most popular officeholder in his own party.

Also, the 2014 ballot is crowded, including two challengers

running to the right of Graham — former state treasurer, reality TV star and convicted felon Thomas Ravenel and Libertarian Victor Kocher. Recent polls have also shown Graham with a higher disapproval rating than any other Republican politician in the state.

Hutto’s campaign figures if he can do a few percentage points better than the 44 percent of the vote President Obama got in South Carolina in 2012, he can beat Graham.

Hutto is embracing Democratic ideas such as raising the minimum wage and improving funding for public schools, while calling himself a pragmatist who can get things done with Republicans. He points out the South Carolina Chamber of Commerce gave him a 100 percent rating for his votes in 2013, and he has the support of the AFL-CIO union.

The chief point Hutto wants to hammer home is that Graham cares more about international affairs, like the attack on the diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, Libya, that left four Americans dead.

“He’s talking about Benghazi! Benghazi!” Hutto said at a recent Democratic rally in Aiken. “Look, I want to talk about Barnwell, Bamberg, Beaufort and Bennettsville. He wants to talk about Syria. How about Sally and St. George and Summerville?”

Graham’s campaign referred questions to state Republican Party Chairman Matt Moore, who said Graham can both deal with foreign policy and

South Carolina issues.

“No one cares more about South Carolina than Lindsey Graham. He is here constantly, at every party event, helping us,” Moore said.

And Graham did win a Republican primary against six challengers earlier this year with 56 percent of the vote. He also has a distinct money advantage. Graham’s campaign spent $8.4 million in the 18 months leading up to the June primary and still had $2.7 million in the bank when it was over.

Hutto had only $51,000 in the bank at the end of the second quarter, but that was just a few weeks after the primary.

He said he should have enough money to run a competitive campaign with statewide advertising as the race heats up in September.

Dickerson is the other Democrat running for U.S. Senate in a race that will be historic no matter how it finishes because South Carolina will elect its first black candidate in a statewide race since Reconstruction.

Dickerson has spent her summer speaking to women’s and Democratic groups around the state, calling for increased support for veterans, the need to elect female candidates and the importance of overall tolerance.

She thinks voters need to look at Scott carefully because he does what other Republican leaders like Gov Nikki Haley tell him. She said him already being in office shouldn’t matter.

“He was appointed and anointed by who?” Dickerson asked the Democratic rally in Aiken. “Nikki Haley.”

Haley appointed Scott to fill the remainder of DeMint’s term.

Dickerson is in even more of a bind with money. Scott had $3.6 million on hand when the general election campaign started, while Dickerson had less than $3,000.

LOS ANGELES — Young people aren’t the only ones who get back-to-school blues.

Pooches used to months of constant playtime can get upset when their best buddies disappear with the dog days of summer.

Many dogs whine and wait eagerly at the front door but eventually adjust to the absence of their young owners when they are in class. But millions of dogs can feel abandoned, sad and unable to cope — and they look for ways to lash out.

Many of the nation’s 80 million dogs have separation anxiety, Dr. Nick Dodman, of Tufts University’s Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine in Massachusetts, said citing studies.

Dogs with separation anxiety will bark, howl or whine; destroy something, leaving behind scratched doors, damaged blinds or torn curtains; or have accidents, Dodman said.

Dianne Larson of Santa Clarita, California, has seen it firsthand. School started two weeks ago, and year-old Ruby, a black Lab, still searches for Larson’s son Tanner, 14, when he’s gone.

“She stays in his room. If his door is closed, she will whine to get in,” Larson said. If the dog isn’t in Tanner’s room, she’s at the front window watching for him.

Side effects for anxious dogs don’t stop at whimpering.

Some dogs refuse to eat when their owners are gone, experts say.

“There will be an exuberant greeting when you do come home, one that can last several minutes and be completely crazy, then the dog will run to the food bowl,” Dodman said.

Nearly half the anxious dogs have noise phobias, so if a storm hits while they are in an empty house, they can panic. A really insecure dog might be-

come clingy and follow its owners around.

Besides recommended independence training, there are some things owners can do to ease their dogs’ blues. Dodman suggests: • Make your departure a happy time with toys and treats.

• Create a place in the house where the dog feels safe.

• Don’t indulge behavior with baby talk or sympathy.

• See a vet if it doesn’t improve.

To cope with separation, first-grader Harry Williams of Kanab, Utah, takes the family dogs, Flora and Gandalf, to the bus stop each morning to get a bit more time with them.

“He is sad to leave them and hugs them like 10 times before he gets on the bus. Usually Flora whines when the bus pulls away,” mom Jill Williams said. But the dogs mostly sleep while the youngster is at school.

“Honestly, they don’t really seem fazed by it other than when Harry gets on and off the school bus,” Williams said.

For those whose dogs have more serious problems, other more expensive options include pet sitters, dog walkers and doggy day camp.

For the young Grimmett sisters in Edmond, Oklahoma, their dogs, an English setter and a Yorkshire terrier, got plenty of attention and outdoor playtime during the summer, but the dogs don’t throw a fit when 10-year-old Willow and 5-year-old Coral go to school, which started this month.

The dogs welcome the girls home with unconditional love and affection — and no criticism, said mom, Dr. Danel Grimmett of Sunset Veterinarian Clinic.

“Yes, they miss their girls, but they seem to understand,” she said. “And all the time away during the day disappears as soon as the girls return.”

Tanner is seen with 8-week-old Ruby at the Best Friends Animal Society in Los Angeles in 2013.

Tanner was working with puppies and met Ruby, a black Lab. “It was love at first sight,” his mother Dianne Larson said. Ruby is 1 year old now, and school has been in session for two weeks.

Ruby’s still searching for Tanner when he’s gone.

Shooting ranges cater to trigger-happy tourists Bullet-riddled parties, shotgun weddings popular

BY MICHELLE RINDELS AND JACQUES BILLEAUD Associated Press Writers LAS VEGAS — The death of an Arizona firearms instructor by a 9-yearold girl who was firing a fully automatic Uzi displayed a tragic side of what has become a hot industry in the U.S.: gun tourism.

With gun laws keeping high-powered weapons out of reach for most people — especially those outside the U.S. — indoor shooting ranges with high-powered weapons have become a popular attraction.

Tourists from Japan flock to ranges in Waikiki, Hawaii, and the dozen or so that have cropped up in Las Vegas offer bullet-riddled bachelor parties and literal shotgun weddings, where newly married couples can fire submachine gun rounds and pose with Uzis and ammo belts.

“People just want to experience things they can’t experience elsewhere,” said Genghis Cohen, owner of Machine Guns Vegas.

“There’s not an action movie in the past 30 years without a machine gun.”

The accidental shooting death of the firing-range instructor in Arizona set off a powerful debate over youngsters and guns, with many people wondering what sort of parents would let a child handle a submachine gun.

Instructor Charles Vacca, 39, was standing next to the

girl Monday at the Last Stop range in White Hills, Arizona, about 60 miles south of Las Vegas, when she squeezed the trigger. The recoil wrenched the Uzi upward, and Vacca was shot in the head.

Prosecutors say they will not file charges in the case.

The identities of the girl and her family have not been released.

The Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health, the state’s workplace safety agency, is investigating the shootingrange death, said agency spokeswoman Rachel Brockway, who declined to provide specifics on the examination.

The coroner in Las Vegas said Vacca suffered from a single gunshot to the head.

Clark County Coroner Mike Murphy told The Associated Press that it will take several weeks for blood-toxicology test results to be complete, and authorities were still investigating the shooting. The coroner said that an official cause of death was pending.

Attractions similar to the Last Stop range have been around since the 1980s in Las Vegas, although the city has experienced a boom of such businesses in the past few years. One dusty outdoor range in Las Vegas calls itself the Bullets and Burgers Adventure and touts its “Desert Storm atmosphere.”

Excitement over guns tends to spike when there’s fear of tighter gun restrictions, said Dan Sessions, general manager of Discount Firearms and Ammo, which houses the Vegas Machine Gun Experience.

Study shows big promise for novel heart failure drug

BY MARILYNN MARCHIONE AP Chief Medical Writer A new study reports one of the biggest potential advances against heart failure in more than a decade — a first-of-a-kind, experimental drug that lowered the chances of death or hospitalization by about 20 percent.

Doctors say the Novartis drug — which doesn’t have a name yet — seems like one of those rare, breakthrough therapies that could quickly change care for more than half of the 6 million Americans and 24 million people worldwide with heart failure.

“This is a new day” for patients,

said Dr. Clyde Yancy, cardiology chief at Northwestern University in Chicago and a former American Heart Association president.

“It’s been at least a decade since we’ve had a breakthrough of this magnitude,” said Yancy, who had no role in the study.

It involved nearly 8,500 people in 47 countries and was the largest experiment ever done in heart failure. It was paid for, designed and partly run

by Novartis, based in Basel, Switzerland. Independent monitors stopped the study in April, seven months earlier than planned, when it was clear the drug was better than an older one

that is standard now.

During the 27-month study, the Novartis drug cut the chances of dying of heart-related causes by 20 percent and for any reason by 16 percent, compared to the older drug. It also reduced the risk of being hospitalized for heart failure by 21 percent.

“We are really excited,” said one study leader, Dr. Milton Packer of UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. The benefit “exceeded our original expectations.”

Results were disclosed Saturday at a European Society of Cardiology conference in Barcelona and published online by the New England

Journal of Medicine.

Novartis will seek approval for the drug — for now called LCZ696 — by the end of this year in the United States and early next year in Europe.

Heart failure is the top reason older people are hospitalized and a leading cause of death. It develops when the heart muscle weakens over time and can no longer pump effectively, often because of damage from a heart attack. Fluid can back up into the lungs and leave people gasping for breath.

The people in this study were already taking three to five medicines to control the condition.

IMPORTANT NOTICE DRS. JOSEPH AND BRENDA WILLIAMS will be leaving the private practice of medicine and closing the EXCELSIOR MEDICAL CLINIC, PA on November 21, 2014.

We greatly appreciate the loyal support of our patients these past thirty-two (32) years. Gratitude also is extended to our colleagues and business associates for their support.

Patients may get their medical records Monday through Friday from 10am through 5pm. The last day for picking up medical records will be December 19, 2014.

Once-dormant virus has reinfected the Gamecock Nation

M

ost University of South Carolina football fans are still reeling from the Thursday night massacre of the Gamecocks at the hands of Texas A&M. They are having trouble adjusting to having seen in disbelief the Cocks giving up 52 points to the Aggies. The preseason hype was that the Chickens would be playing in a major bowl and possibly even playing for the national championship this season. How could the team tank so miserably before their home field fans?

I have the answer to that question: The Chicken Curse.

Just because the sainted Steve

COMMENTARY Spurrier was brought in to rescue Carolina from the trough of despondence that has existed throughout most of its history and had put together two 11-win seasons in a row did not mean that the Chicken Curse virus had been expunged.

No, the virus was only dormant within the body of the Gamecock Nation, awaiting an opportunity to be resurrected.

All it took for the Curse to come alive again was that old bugaboo for USC fans: overconfidence. Just when everything was coming up

roses for the Cocks, great expectations would be dashed by the accursed virus being triggered and dashing the hopes of the loyal and longsuffering fans.

Surely the ThursHubert D. day demolition was Osteen Jr. an aberration and cannot be repeated.

Surely the days of yesteryear have been put to rest, the days when Gamecock fans were leaving games in the third quarter, ripping off their garnet sport coats as they filed out of Williams–Brice

cursing the fickle finger of fate as they retired to the parking lot to consume enormous amounts of adult beverages before traversing the long, lonely roads back home where the ritual would begin again in advance of the next weekend’s game. “Boo-Wah” Boulware will again crank up his spirited prognosticating machine and entertain followers with another rosy scenario as the East Carolina matchup looms.

Out! Out!, cursed curse. The Gamecock Nation will regroup and cheer the chickens again until they get it right and return to the win column. After all, it’s only a game, right?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR LET’S REMEMBER THE PURPOSE OF ORGANIZED LABOR Over the years there have been several occasions when I have felt compelled to write letters to The Sumter Item’s various editors, taking them to task for articles the paper has published dealing with the subject of labor unions, usually treating them with a heavy-handed bias consistent with the paper’s conservative background and Republican leanings.

In fairness, the paper has published every letter I have submitted, for which I am both grateful and expectant that this is as it should be if your readers are to say they have been fairly informed.

In the same spirit of fairness, I wish to commend you for your Aug. 28 article by Ivy Moore on the history of the American labor movement and connecting that history to our present-day Labor Day holiday.

From its beginnings, organized labor provided a method whereby ordinary workers could obtain some degree of control over their working condi-

tions, wages and benefits, all within a framework whose fundamental purpose was not to destroy the employer.

As the article points out, this was not achieved without some experience of strife, suffering and pain.

What is peculiarly American about this is the extent to which American workers, whether affiliated or not, benefitted from that vision of hope raised high for all to see.

Labor Day celebrates that vision for all, not only organized workers (in which case it would probably be called Organized Labor Day and consequently mean less). Certainly today some will wonder as to the continued purpose, or effectiveness, or integrity or organized labor.

Younger workers in future years will decide this.

For the time being, let us all rejoice in that history, and thank you for bringing it to your readers.

It’s ‘Labor’ Day, not ‘Union’ Day M

ost Americans realize that Labor Day is about celebrating workers and their contribution to our free society, but that won’t stop union bosses from stealing the spotlight to push their own agenda.

Despite this, there is still much to celebrate this Labor Day. Workers from across the country have made substantial gains for workplace freedom.

In America’s newest Right to Work state, a growing number of workers from across Michigan are joining the fight to protect their Right to Work from union bosses. In Wisconsin, the state supreme court upheld in entirety Gov. Scott Walker’s public-sector unionism reforms, commonly known as “Act 10,” which grants Right to Work protections to most Wisconsin government employees.

Meanwhile, Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga, Tennessee, staved off unwanted United Auto Workers unionization via a backroom deal between company and union officials that featured a coercive card check campaign.

And in Illinois, a mother named Pam Harris, joined by other parents

GUEST COMMENTARY and family members who provide home-based personal care to special-needs individuals, took a corrupt quid pro quo government unionization scheme all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

In that case, now-imprisoned former Illinois Gov. Rob Blagojevich and current Gov. Pat Quinn issued executive orders designed to force home-based personal care providers into SEIU ranks.

The Court struck down the scheme, ruling that individuals who indirectly receive state subsidies based on their clientele cannot be forced to pay compulsory union fees. The court’s ruling renders unconstitutional similar homecare unionization schemes in effect in at least 13 other states.

In the wake of the court’s ruling, SEIU officials were forced to back down from demanding $11 million in annual forced dues payments from 25,000 Illinois providers.

Furthermore, the effects of that ruling are reverberating across the nation, and an estimated 500,000 home-based personal care and child

care providers could now be freed from $80 million in annual forced union dues.

But despite these big victories for worker freedom, more work remains.

You see, in the 26 states without Right to Work laws, workers who want to refrain from union membership can be fired for refusing to pay union dues. What’s more, millions more nonmember workers have no choice but to accept union bargaining over their wages and working conditions, even if they want nothing to do with the union.

This despite the fact that poll after poll shows that the American people overwhelmingly oppose forced union dues and affiliation and over 93 percent of private-sector workers have chosen not to join a union.

That’s why, as we saw in Illinois, union officials are increasingly reliant on their forced union dues-funded political activism to protect and expand their government-granted legal privileges of compulsion and extortion.

For union officials, political activism takes precedence over protecting worker rights.

And why not? Big Labor’s $1.7 billion forced-dues funded political machine enables Big Labor to wield an immense amount of clout in Washington, D.C., and state capitals.

So why should union officials bother with the hard work of representing employees if they’re sitting on a forced-dues revenue stream guaranteed by the government?

As we are seeing in Michigan, Tennessee, Illinois and beyond, workers are waking up to the fact that this flood of forced-dues cash also breeds extravagance, abuse and corruption.

In more than 200 active cases nationwide, foundation attorneys are helping thousands of Americans such as Pam Harris stand up for their rights against union official corruption, intimidation and even violence.

Perhaps this Labor Day, union officials for their own sake should take a step back and re-examine why millions of American workers want nothing to do with a union.

PROJECT FROM PAGE A1 by any entrance. Under the new plan, though, the access points for walk-in entry will be whittled down to one, on the east side of the building facing North Harvin Street, with the others secured for building personnel only.

The county purchased the former Newman Realty property last year and plans to demolish the small redbrick building, which is connected to the administration building at the corner of East Canal and North Harvin streets. With the added space outside, a new front will be put in to model after the adjacent Sumter County Judicial Center.

Along with the added room outside, additional space will be created inside for the county council chamber and the finance and purchasing offices.

County Administrator Gary Mixon said the council’s chamber space will see an increase of as much as a third of its current area to ensure proper room for seating during council meetings.

Aside from increasing office space, a

MARRIAGE FROM PAGE A1 from under an arch at home plate, Bentley spoke about the commitment of marriage being a new beginning and how the couple have formed a new team.

“You will always accomplish more working together as a team,” he said, casting a chastening glance at his Rock Hill Christ Fellowship softball team.

The Rock Hill team members, dressed in black tuxedo T-shirts for the occasion, seemed to get the point.

When the marriage vows were finished, the pastor turned the couple to the assembled crowd and said, “I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Eric Childers,” to a rousing cheer.

The softball tournament, Fort said, is now in its 13th year and has attracted teams from across the Southeast and beyond.

“We have 16 teams here; the farthest north is a team from Ohio. We have teams from

North Carolina, South Carolina, Kentucky, Georgia and Florida,” Fort said.

“We hold this tournament foremost to win souls over to Christ,” she said. “That’s our goal. Softball is a very safe environment, so we have teams come in, and we actually ask them to bring a couple of people from their congregation or from outside who don’t know the love of Christ.”

After a big dinner gathering on Friday night, Fort said the teams play round-robin matches on Saturday before being placed in three divisions for the tournament.

“We have a division named for Bob Sharp, who built our church; the King Division, named for Leon King, a patriarch at our church; and the Bower Division named for our current pastor, Ron Bower,” she said.

The divisions are determined by skill level and past performance, she said.

“We have a big worship service Sunday morning at 9 a.m.,” Fort said. “All the teams come and worship and praise God.”

TAXES FROM PAGE A1 exchange serving 36 states has the biggest job. HHS will have to manage that while in the midst of running the 2015 health insurance sign-up season, when millions more are expected to try to get coverage.

“It’s very unrealistic to expect that they would be able to implement a process that distributed these forms in the middle of open enrollment, and on time,” said George Brandes, vice president for health care programs at Jackson Hewitt Tax Service.

The average tax refund is about $2,690, and people who count on getting money back often file early.

Liberty Tax Service vice president Chuck Lovelace said his company is giving the feds the benefit of the doubt, but the possibility of delays “is not something we can turn a blind eye to.”

“It could have a dramatic impact on our customers,” Lovelace said. “The tax refund is the largest check many consumers get.”

Administration spokesman Aaron Albright said officials are “working to develop the technical processes to ensure the forms are generated accurately and timely.” Part of the plan will include “robust outreach” to educate consumers about the importance of the forms, so 1095-As don’t accidentally wind up in the recycling bin.

Some states running their own exchanges are providing more details about their plans.

treasurer’s office.

“This is something that we feel needs to be done for the community,” Mixon said. “If you look at any renovations of facilities, security is a priority, particularly in a place where you collect fees and taxes.”

With her staff one of the main beneficiaries of the upgrades, County Treasurer Carolina Richardson is happy to see a way to bring the building’s security up to par with contemporaries in the state.

“We’re taking in funds on a daily basis, and sometimes you deal with irate citizens,” Richardson said.

“These additions will help my staff members, who serve on the front line.”

The project, if passed by the voting public in November, would begin in either 2018 or 2019, with an anticipated completion date within eight to 12 months of the initial groundbreaking.

After serving as the headquarters for the National Bank of South Carolina from May of 1974 to December 1994, the building was purchased and rededicated by the city on July 18, 1995.

California says it will include a cover letter with each form to help consumers understand what they need to do. The state is looking at using email blasts, public events and other educational efforts.

“We do not foresee any problems in meeting our responsibility,” said James Scullary, a spokesman for the state marketplace.

The new health care law offers tax credits to help people without workplace coverage buy private health insurance. Next year is when the connections between the law’s coverage expansion and the tax system will start to surface for consumers.

The nearly 7 million people who got insurance tax credits through federal and state exchanges will have to tally up accounts with the Internal Revenue Service to ensure that they got the amount they were legally entitled to.

Funneling subsidies through the incometax system was once seen as a political plus for Obama and the law’s supporters. It allowed the White House to claim that the Affordable Care Act is “the largest tax cut for health care in American history.” But it also promises to make an already complicated tax system more difficult for many consumers.

Supporters of the law are also concerned about a related issue: People who got too big a subsidy for health care in 2014 will have to pay it back next year. And docking refunds will be the first way the IRS seeks repayment.

Tamed between the hedges Gurley leads Georgia past Clemson 45-21

BY PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press ATHENS, Ga. — Todd Gurley ran for 198 yards and three touchdowns, returned a kickoff 100 yards for another score, and No. 12 Georgia gained some early style points in the national race with a 45-21 victory over No. 16 Clemson on Saturday night.

If rating Heisman Trophy favorites after Week 1, Gurley would surely be among the favorites. He made the most of his limited touches on a sweltering night between the hedges, averaging 17.2 yards every time he got his hands on the ball. He set a school record for all-purpose yards with 293, breaking the record of 290 set by Rodney Hampton in 1987.

Georgia broke open a game that was tied 21-all at halftime, shutting down Clemson and a fast-break offense that didn’t look nearly as effective without record-setting quarterback Tajh Boyd and star receiver Sammy Watkins.

Gordon thinks Stewart could run strong in Atlanta

Spanish course

BY CHARLES ODUM The Associated Press HAMPTON, Ga. — Jeff Gordon is expecting Tony Stewart to be a contender in his return to the track.

Kevin Harvick will be on the pole but Stewart, who will start 12th, will be in the spotlight in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race Sunday night at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Stewart is competing for the first time since GORDON the sprint car he was driving struck and killed 20-year-old Kevin Ward Jr. in an Aug. 9 race at a dirt track in upstate New York.

Gordon was imSTEWART pressed when Stewart ran close to 190 mph in practice. Stewart was a bit slower in qualifying at 187.907.

Still, Gordon said Friday that Stewart “may make quite a return.”

Gordon and other drivers said the return to racing will provide therapy for Stewart, who was visibly emotional, with his voice breaking, as he read a prepared statement on Friday.

“I do think that the best thing for him is to be in that race car,” Gordon said.

Said Harvick, Stewart’s teammate at Stewart-Haas Racing: “Being in that car cures a lot of problems for a short time.”

Sumter’s Moses turns summer camp into pro basketball gig in Barcelona

BY JUSTIN DRIGGERS justin@theitem.com Five months ago, Eren Moses was all but ready to untie his basketball shoelaces for the last time and settle into the hustle and bustle of a 9-to-5 job.

“I was a part-time employee with Enterprise (Rent-ACar),” Moses said. “I have a business degree from Coker (College) and they had welcomed me with open arms, so I thought that was the next step.”

However, his passion for basketball wasn’t quite quenched yet, and a summer camp has put a slight detour in his projected career path.

Rams cut 1st openly gay player in Sam

BY R.B. FALLSTROM The Associated Press ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Rams have cut Michael Sam, the first openly gay player drafted by an NFL team.

Sam still has a chance to get picked up by another team or to make the Rams’ practice squad.

SEC ROUNDUP

Alabama edges WVU 33-23 ATLANTA — Blake Sims was good enough to finish his first start at quarterback for Alabama, getting plenty of help from Amari Cooper, T.J. Yeldon and Derrick Henry, and the secondranked Crimson Tide held off West Virginia 33-23 Saturday.

Sims was 24-for-33 for 250 yards and added 42 running, playing the entire opener at the Georgia Dome. The fifth-year senior beat out Florida State transfer Jake Coker for the start. Tide coach Nick Saban had suggested both quarterbacks would play, but Sims never came out.

Yeldon (126 yards rushing and two touchdowns), Henry (113 yards rushing and a score) and Cooper (12 catches for 130 yards) provided plenty of support. Alabama needed all the offense it could get because West Virginia found plenty of soft spots in the Tide’s D. The Mountaineers’ uptempo spread gave Clint Trickett his pick of open receivers, and he took advantage with 365 yards passing.

Defense shines as UCLA edges Virginia CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Brett Hundley was all smiles, mostly because of his defense.

Seventh-ranked UCLA scored three defensive touchdowns in the second quarter Saturday and Hundley led them on a critical second-half scoring drive as the Bruins escaped Virginia 28-20 in the opener for both teams.

Hundley, widely regarded as one of the nation’s top quarterbacks, was harassed all day by Virginia’s pressure defense, which sacked him five times, and made the biggest play of the day for UCLA with his feet. It came on a 6-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter when safety Quin Blanding met him around the 3 yard-line, and Hundley overpowered him.

Georgia Tech quarterback Justin Thomas (5) accounted for 353 yards of offense in a 38-19 victory over Wofford on Saturday in Atlanta.

Thomas, who was making his first start, threw for 282 yards.

Thomas leads Yellow Jackets over Wofford ATLANTA — Justin Thomas had 353 yards of total offense and DeAndre Smelter caught two third-quarter touchdown passes in Georgia Tech’s 38-19 victory over Wofford in both teams’ season opener on Saturday.

Making his first career start, Thomas went 11 of 15 for 282 yards and completed his last eight passes for 250 yards to help the Yellow Jackets hold off the pesky FCS Terriers.

Zach Laskey’s 11-yard touchdown run midway through the fourth quarter gave the Jackets a 31-19 lead, and the defense forced a three-out after giving up a 16play, 75-yard drive on Wofford’s previous possession.

That drive took over 9 minutes and ended with Octavius Harden’s 4-yard touchdown run, cutting the lead to 24-19.

But Broderick Snoddy followed with a 65-yard pass reception from Thomas that set up Laskey’s score.

Thomas led Georgia Tech with 71 yards on 13 carries.

Laskey had 15 carries for 70 yards.

Smelter beat cornerback Bernard Williams on both of his touchdown catches. His first, a slant route from the right side, covered 19 yards to put Georgia Tech up 24-12.

His second, going from right to left, went for 71 yards as Smelter kept his feet moving and used his size to maneuver past Williams, who fell backward and lost his helmet near the sideline at the 40.

Georgia Tech played a dysfunctional first half, giving up a 92-yard touchdown, missing a 31-yard field goal attempt and getting mixed results from Thomas in the passing game.

Wofford was just trying to run out the first-half clock when Ray Smith ran up the middle untouched for a 92yard score. Smith was sprung free near the line of scrimmage on a botched defensive call that looked like a run blitz that left no deep safety help.

The 92-yard run equaled the total yards on Wofford’s first 25 plays.

With linebacker Quayshawn Nealy blocked out to his left and nose tackle Shawn Green out to his right, Smith easily outran free safety Demond Smith for the long score.

Georgia Tech was fortunate when Green blocked the ensuing extra point attempt to

keep the Wofford lead at 9-7.

Harrison Butker atoned for pushing an earlier field goal attempt far right by connecting on a 30-yarder that put Georgia Tech up 10-9 at intermission.

Under coach Paul Johnson, Georgia Tech has beaten Elon, Western Carolina, South Carolina State and Jacksonville State twice by a combined 252-62 score in five of the last six openers.

Tech’s first play was a screen pass completion to Smelter for 21 yards, and Thomas converted a thirdand-5 with a 16-yard run to the Wofford 22. Two plays later, Laskey ran through the left side of the line for a 4-yard touchdown to make it 7-0.

Evan Jacks, who played at Northview High School in nearby Johns Creek, Ga., ran up the middle for 13 and 20 yards on Wofford’s second drive. The Terriers settled for David Marvin’s 39-yard field goal to cut the lead to 7-3.

Jacks led Wofford with 89 yards rushing on 13 attempts.

He and Michael Weimer combined for 55 yards passing on seven completions.

Georgia Tech senior safety Isaiah Johnson, who sat out last season with a knee injury, left the game in the fourth quarter with an undisclosed injury and did not return.

CLEMSON FROM PAGE B1 senior, an understudy to Aaron Murray throughout his career, completed 18-of-26 for 131 yards and didn’t do much damage downfield without speedy receivers Malcolm Mitchell and Justin Scott-Wesley.

It didn’t really matter. Gurley pretty much finished off Clemson by himself.

The junior running back, looking to shine after an injury-plagued sophomore season, got things started with a 23-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. Then he electrified the crowd of more than 92,000 by taking a kickoff at the goal line, bursting through a gap straight up the middle of the field, and leaving everyone in his wake with a stunning display of speed.

Mindful of Gurley’s injuries last season and not wanting to tire him out in the humid conditions, Georgia limited him to four carries, one pass reception (for a 5-yard loss) and that dynamic kickoff return in the first half.

The strategy paid off over the final two quarters.

Gurley just kept right on running like he wasn’t even tired, while Clemson found it increasingly difficult to bring him down. In the final period, he pushed Georgia to a 31-21 lead with an 18-yard touchdown run,

Simmons had 78 yards on 12 carries to lead the Bulldogs rushing attack, which amassed 381 yards on the ground and had four players gain 50 yards or more.

Adrian Kollock Jr. completed 15 of 18 for 160 yards to lead the South Carolina State passing attack.

The Bulldogs defense was equally efficient, holding Benedict to only 228 yards of total offense and just 14 first downs South Carolina State was picked second in the MEAC preseason poll, and Saturday’s victory was its seventh consecutive against Benedict dating back to 2002.

breaking a tackle at the line and cutting to his left to reach the end zone without being touched again.

Then, picking his way through a hole with a hand on the back of a lineman, Gurley suddenly broke free down the right sideline on his 15th, and final, carry of the night for 51-yard touchdown that turned a game that was close most of the way into a blowout.

Georgia showed stunning depth at running back, also giving extensive playing time to Keith Marshall, coming back from a knee injury, and freshmen Nick Chubb and Sony Michel.

Grubb also scored in the fourth quarter on a 47-yard run that looked downright Gurley-esque, breaking tackles and pulling away from the secondary with a burst down the sidelines. He had 70 yards on four carries. Michel turned in 33 yards on six carries as the Bulldogs piled up 328 rushing yards on a defense that returned most of its front seven from last season.

Cole Stoudt, taking over at quarterback for Boyd, was just 15 of 28 for 130 yards with an interception. There will surely be calls for the Tigers to give more playing time to touted freshman Deshaun Watson. In limited snaps, Watson guided the Tigers to a touchdown with a 30-yard pass to Charone Peake.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale struck out a season-high 13 in a 6-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday.

Sale Ks 13, White Sox beat Scherzer, Tigers 6-3 CHICAGO — Chris Sale overcame a shaky start to strike out a season-high 13, beating Max Scherzer in a matchup of All-Star aces and leading the Chicago White Sox past the Detroit Tigers 6-3 in the first game of a day-night doubleheader Saturday.

Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer and Tyler Flowers also went deep against Scherzer (15-5), who fanned 11 and walked none in 6 2-3 innings. But he was touched up for six runs, five earned, and nine hits.

Sale (11-3) struck out at least 10 for the 17th time in his career, tying Hall of Famer Ed Walsh for the franchise record. The lefthander reached that figure in 81 major league starts — Walsh made 312 for the White Sox from 1904-1916.

Sale allowed three runs and six hits in seven innings. Jake Petricka pitched the ninth for his 10th save.

Victor Martinez and Ian Kinsler homered for the Tigers, who began the day with a one-game lead over Seattle for the second AL wild card.

Jose Abreu had three singles and his 98th RBI for the White Sox. He entered the day tied with Miami slugger Giancarlo Stanton for the major league lead.

Chicago beat Scherzer for only the second time in his last 11 decisions. The righthander had not allowed more than four runs in 12 consecutive starts.

BLUE JAYS 2 YANKEES 0

TORONTO — Drew Hutchison pitched seven shutout innings, Jose Bautista homered for the fourth straight game and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the New York Yankees 2-0 on Saturday.

Mark Teixeira’s fourth-inning double was the only hit allowed by Hutchison (9-11), who walked two and struck out nine.

Aaron Sanchez retired all six batters he faced for his first major league save as the Blue Jays improved to 8-17 in August and, at 68-67, avoided falling below .500 for the first time since May 14, when they were 20-21.

Bautista hit a two-out,

two-run homer off Michael Pineda (3-3) in the first.

NATIONAL LEAGUE CUBS 5 CARDINALS 1 ST. LOUIS — Starlin Castro hit one of Chicago’s three solo homers and Felix Doubront pitched seven strong innings in his National League debut, sending the Cubs to a 5-1 victory over the slumping St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of a day-night doubleheader Saturday.

FRIDAY BRAVES 5 MARLINS 2 ATLANTA — Justin Upton is having quite a month.

Upton homered and had three RBIs, Jason Heyward drove in the go-ahead run in the seventh inning and the Atlanta Braves beat the Miami Marlins 5-2 on Friday night for their third straight win.

With 28 RBIs in 25 games since Aug. 1, Upton considers this to be the best month of his eight-year career.

Scott eyeing starting spot on Maryville College O-line

O

ffensive lineman Horace Lee Scott has been contending for a starting spot on the Maryville College (Tenn.) football team.

The sophomore out of Wilson Hall has played center, right guard and right tackle since joining the program. He played in three games last year, according to the school’s online site.

“He’s not a starter right SCOTT now,” co-offensive coordinator Philip Bailey said Thursday.

“He’s definitely one of our primary backups.”

Scott said he’s been focused on the tackle spot, though he noted, “It doesn’t really matter to me. I’m versatile.”

He devoted his summer training to gaining strength and stamina. He is listed on the roster as 6-foot-1-inch and 245 pounds. “I mainly ran and just lifted,” Scott said.

Scott added “15 pounds of good weight,” Bailey said.

“The more weight you can carry and still run around effectively is beneficial.”

“We ask the linemen to do a

lot,” the coach said.

“You have to be pretty athletic.”

Maryville employs a nohuddle offense, as it Barbara did last year, Boxleitner Scott said.

KEEPING UP “You’ve definitely got to be in good shape,” he said. “It really wears the defense down.”

Like he did a season ago, Scott plays on the shield punt team, mainly in a blocking role.

Scott will see several locals when Maryville ends the regular season at USA South Athletic Conference foe Methodist University (N.C.). Crestwood High School product Anthony Radke is a junior wide receiver, Laurence Manning Academy graduate Blake Richardson is a freshman offensive lineman and Sumter High School alumnus Justin Martin is a freshman wide receiver.

KUCHAR HOVERS AROUND LEAD NORTON, Mass. — With an orange ribbon on his hat and nine birdies on his card, Matt Kuchar pulled within a shot of the lead Saturday in the Deutsche Bank Championship.

Jason Day struggled at the end for a 68. They were tied for the lead on the TPC Boston going into the third round of a FedEx Cup playoff event that ends on Labor Day. Kuchar was a shot behind after a 66 that featured six consecutive birdies around the turn.

From staff, wire reports

NASCAR FROM PAGE B1 In his prepared statement, Stewart said he skipped the last three races “out of respect for Kevin and his family and also to cope with the accident in my own way.”

“It’s given me the time to think about life and how easy it is to take it for granted,” Stewart said. “I missed my team, my teammates and missed being back in the race car. I think that being back in the car this week with my racing family will help me get through this difficult time.”

Johnny Morris, the founder

SAM FROM PAGE B1 Fisher said. “He’s not about drawing attention to himself.

He kept his head down and worked and you can’t ask anything more out of any player for that matter.”

On Twitter, roughly an hour after he was cut, Sam wrote “The most worthwhile things in life rarely come easy, this is a lesson I’ve always known.

The journey continues.”

He also thanked the Rams and city of St. Louis on Twitter, adding that he looks forward to a long and successful career.

Earlier Saturday, he attended Missouri’s opener in Columbia, a 1 1/2-hour drive west on I-70 from Rams Park.

Presented by

of Bass Pro Shops, one of Stewart’s primary sponsors, released a statement Saturday expressing support for Stewart in his return. Morris said he met with Stewart last week.

“It made my heart ache to see him so devastated by this incident,” said Morris, who described Stewart as “one of the most compassionate and kind-hearted individuals I have ever met.”

Brad Keselowski will start beside Harvick on the front row.

He was introduced to the crowd in the end zone alongside defensive E.J. Gaines, a sixth-round pick who made the team.

Sam blew a kiss and waved to the crowd, then walked back to the sideline. He posed for a few pictures then started looking at his phone and headed for the locker room.

The Rams selected Sam, the SEC co-defensive player of the year at Missouri, with the 249th overall pick out of 256 overall.

Isner falls to Kohlschreiber

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Philipp Kohlschreiber returns a shot against John Isner in his 7-6 (4), 4-6, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (4) victory during the third round of the U.S. Open on Saturday in New York.

BY HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press NEW YORK — Once again, John Isner’s trip to Flushing Meadows ended in the third round. Once again, it happened with a loss to Germany’s Philipp Kohlschreiber at that stage.

And once again, there are zero American men in the U.S. Open’s round of 16 — something that had never happened until it did last year at the country’s tennis championship, which was first played in 1881.

On a windy, cloudy evening, the 13th-seeded Isner hit 42 aces, saved all five break points he faced — and yet it wasn’t enough.

Unable to capitalize on plenty of openings, and surprisingly outplayed in a trio of tiebreakers, Isner lost to the 22nd-seeded Kohlschreiber 7-6 (4), 4-6, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (4).

“It’s disappointing for

me personally — not for America as a whole,” Isner said.

It was the third straight year that these two men faced each other in the third round in New York, and Kohlschreiber won them all. He eliminated the big-serving, 6-foot-10 Isner in five sets in 2012, and in four sets in 2013.

Isner only converted 1 of 12 break points he accumulated.

“Got a little tight, to be honest, and didn’t move my feet on some points that I really needed,” Isner said, resting his chin on his left fist. “I had chances. I just didn’t convert.”

The 29-year-old Isner is best known for winning the longest match in tennis history, an 11-plushour marathon spread over three days that ended 70-68 in the fifth set at Wimbledon in 2010.

Currently, he is the only U.S. man ranked inside the

The biggest key is establishing oneself, Moses said.

Despite playing in all 28 games his senior year at Coker and averaging 8.5 points and 5.5 rebounds, he had to prove himself all over again.

“That’s one of the biggest challenges over there – no one knows you,” he said.

“You can be the best player in the world, but they’ve never heard of you. So you have to kind of establish an identity on and off the court.”

The style of basketball wasn’t hard to adapt to though.

“It’s wasn’t too much of a basketball transition because it was a similar style to what I’m used to playing,” Moses said. “Our coach (Dejan Kamenjasevic) did a great job in helping me and my teammates learn about spacing, which is very important with the style of play they have in Europe.”

Spending 45 days with Kamenjasevic, an ACB

League coach, also opened the door for his return, Moses said.

“He was the reason I found a deal,” he said.

The New York native will be the only American on a team of all-Spanish speakers when the season begins, but the coaching staff is able to speak English.

“I have no issues there,” he said. “(The language) isn’t too much of an issue. I think in today’s world it’s more common to find people that can speak English across Europe.”

Moses has already picked up a few keys words – enough to order food at his favorite local restaurant at least.

“It’s a process,” he said. “I know my college Spanish professor would be upset with the amount of Spanish I know right now, but as long I can eat I should be fine. It’s just a matter of picking up the day-to-day things and picking up terms that I’ll need to communicate with my teammates.’

top 45, and has made clear he does not necessarily enjoy that distinction.

Fans at Louis Armstrong Stadium tried to boost their guy with chants of “Let’s go, John!”

And they roared throughout the fourth set, especially when Isner would edge ahead within a game.

But this one mainly came down to the tiebreakers, usually a strong suit for Isner: He entered the day 37-17 in those setdeciders this season, while Kohlschreiber was only 9-11.

“He was just better,” Isner said. “I’ve got to be better. I know I can be.

Just not showing it.”

Earlier Saturday, 57thranked Sam Querrey — entering the day, the only other man from the host country remaining of the 12 originally in the draw — put up little resistance while bowing out against No. 1 Novak Djokovic 6-3, 6-2, 6-2.

The season in Spain lasts from September through the following August, with the only likely break coming around Christmas, Moses said.

Still, that doesn’t mean he’ll be playing solely in Barcelona. The level BBA Castelldefels is on is listed as EBA – the bottom of four tiers. There are also higher levels called LEB Silver, LEB Gold and ACB which is the top level.

“I have confidence in my abilities (to advance) and my potential, but at the same time, if I have the opportunity to move up and don’t feel like I’m ready, I won’t go,” Moses said. “It’s all a learning process.”

A trip back across the pond to one of the pro leagues in the United States isn’t off the table, either.

“I definitely wouldn’t mind it if the chance came up,” Moses said. “I feel like I’m in the perfect spot. I can play professionally in Spain and see what happens, but I always know I’ve got things (in S.C.) that I can come back to as well.”

I’m sorry to say this idea didn’t occur to me until after the lady died suddenly, and her husband was left a widower with a small child to raise.

Once the funeral is over and the church and neighbors move on, those left behind are often without support. They have funeral bills to pay, medical bills and their grief.

My local grocer happens to deliver, so I went and bought two cases of canned vegetables, rice, beans, flour, corn meal, sugar, potatoes and pasta every other month and had them delivered anonymously. That way my neighbor wouldn’t feel it was charity. He has since figured out it was me, so I take food to them now because he’s still having a hard time after his wife’s death. But the little girl is thriving and I don’t have to worry she will be hungry.

knew they had full and halfsiblings somewhere “in the system.” We have not yet told our children they have biological siblings, although they do know their birth parents are no longer living due to drug abuse.

I was recently able to locate two of the full siblings through Internet research, and I have been following their lives on their social networking pages. Both are adults now — one is a college student; the other is a young mother.

I am torn. My children are teenagers now and old enough to be told they have other siblings. But should I uproot these young women’s lives to learn about us and meet our children? I’m also not sure whether they know the circumstances of their biological parents’ deaths or would want that information.

It doesn’t seem fair to dump all this on a college student and a young mom, but my children have a right to know, too. I almost wish I had never started searching. Please advise.

NEW YORK — Imagine using your phone to snap a photo of the cool pair of sunglasses your friend is wearing and instantly receiving a slew of information about the shades along with a link to order them.

It’s a great idea — but it doesn’t quite work.

Though many companies are trying to make “visual search” a reality, this seemingly simple notion remains elusive.

Take Amazon, which made visual search a key feature in its new Fire smartphone.

The e-commerce company says the feature, known as Firefly, can recognize 100 million items. It’s similar to a Flow feature Amazon has on its apps for other phones.

So far, Firefly can reliably make out labels of products such as Altoids or Celestial Seasonings tea. That makes it easy to buy items such as groceries online.

But try it on a checkered shirt or anything without sharp corners, and no such luck.

“It works really well when we can match an image to the product catalog,” says Mike Torres, an Amazon executive who works on the Fire’s software. “Where things are rounded or don’t have (visual markers) to latch on to, like a black shoe, it’s a little harder to do image recognition.”

Visual search is important to retailers because it makes mobile shopping a snap — literally.

It’s much easier to take a picture than to type in a description of something you want. Shopping on cellphones and tablets is still a small part of retail sales, but it’s growing quickly. That makes it important to simplify the process as much as possible — especially as people look to visual sites such as Instagram and Pinterest as inspiration for purchases.

“Retailers are trying to get the user experience simple enough so people are willing to buy on their phones, not just use it as a research tool,” eMarketer analyst Yory Wurmser said.

Mobile software that scans codes, such as QR codes and UPC symbols, are fairly common. Creating apps that consistently recognize images and objects has been more challenging. Forrester analyst Sucharita Mulpuru believes it could take at least three more years.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Since 2009, Google’s Goggles app for Android has succeeded in picking up logos and landmarks. But Google says on its website that the app is “not so good” at identifying cars, furniture and clothes in photos.

What’s holding visual search back?

The technology works by analyzing visual characteristics, or points, such as color, shape and texture. Amazon’s Firefly, for example, identifies a few hundred points to identify a book and up to 1,000 for paintings. U.K. startup Cortexica uses 800 to 1,500 points to create a virtual fingerprint for the image. It then scans its database of about 4 million images for a match.

Without easily identifiable markers, non-labeled objects are difficult to identify. Lighting conditions, photo quality, distance, angles and other factors can throw the technology off. Visual search works best when there is a clearly defined image on a white background.

Some retailers are finding success with visual search by keeping the selection of searchable products limited.

Target’s new “In a Snap” app works only with items from its Room Essentials furniture, bedding and decor line. And it works only when snapping a product image in a magazine ad, not when you see the actual product on a shelf. When a shopper scans the ad, items pop up for the shopper to add to a shopping cart.

Heels.com, an online shoe retailer, keeps visual search limited to shoes. Shoppers upload pictures or send links of shoes and are offered similar pairs for sale on the company’s website.

“People shop through images nowadays,” Heels.com CEO Eric McCoy says.

“We want to give them the exact shoe, or something similar.”

So, the race is on to perfect the technology that will create smartphone apps that easily recognize objects in a real-world environment.

Plan ahead for grown-up 2015 summer camp

BY CATHERINE BLUMBERG Executive Director, Sumter County Active Lifestyles I’m not usually gung-ho about playing games and exercising during my precious vacation days. Previously, I’ve often chosen to lounge around with a good book and a movie, but “times are achanging.” This summer I vacationed at a camp for grown-ups where games and exercise were on the menu all day.

During my youth I attended 4-H, Girl Scout and church camps. Camp was a place where I learned codes of conduct, made friends and had lots of fun. My camp memories include early morning risings (who could sleep with the camps’ bugles and bells blasting loudly enough to wake hibernating bears?) and eager anticipation of arts and crafts, games and mealtime gatherings.

In those days, there were no breaking news reports about skyrocketing childhood obesity. Camp planners simply knew that fun and games were a necessity, not an option, for a successful camp; most of those games included physical activity/exercise.

As adults, we often forget that, like children, we need enjoyable exercise. That’s what I learned, by experience, at adult DANCE camp this summer. After all, why should kids have all the fun?

Unlike youth camp, I neither slept in a tent nor was I

awakened by a bugle blast.

Instead, I camped out in a nice hotel room and took full responsibility for getting myself going on time each day. Other than that, there were many similarities.

At adult camp, dance classes were the equivalent of 4-H arts and crafts. We had around 12 dance style choices.

For example, we could choose to learn and execute smooth dances such as the waltz and foxtrot, or Latin dances like rumba and cha-cha-cha. Options such as line dancing were available too, as there was something for everyone’s interests and abilities. (If you’ve watched “Dancing with the Stars,” you can easily imagine the gamut of campers’ skills levels.)

With the dance floor as our venue and a backdrop of music and rhythm, codes of conduct were incorporated into our classes. Appropriate dance etiquette such as the invitation to dance, invitation response, line of dance and dance closure were emphasized. Good posture and positioning were practiced, as ballroom dancing is exercise needing to be done correctly for injury prevention and enjoyment.

Seven classes of differing skill levels were offered daily, as well as opportunities for private dance lessons. Summer camps typically conclude with performances or special events presented by campers.

Dance camp was no different, as most campers elect-

ed to learn group dance routines for performing on the last night. My husband and I chose to learn waltz and salsa dance routines. Needless to say, we exercised all day.

Then came the evening when campers gathered for dinner followed by fun and games. For instance, on the first night, campers were given dance cards with directions. One of my directions was to find someone with a shared zodiac sign and dance a foxtrot together. While games were not required, they certainly kept us exercising and made it easy to meet other campers. I even joined a dance team game, requiring my partner (a young college guy) and me to dance across the ballroom while keeping a football between us. My husband did a cha-cha-cha with his team partner without touching or talking.

What fun!

Beyond fun and games, the final night of camp featured outstanding entertainment; the dance pros performed breathtaking routines, full of glitz and glamour. While I never expect to dance like a pro, I have learned that dancing is a superb avenue for fun, making friends and getting exercise.

If you need to exercise more, find a physical activity that is interesting and fun. In Sumter, you can find a class/group for almost everything. Then treat yourself to a related summer camp in 2015.

This is the aircraft which for many years has been a mainstay of the Tactical Reconnaissance Center at Shaw AFB.

Of course, she planted tomatoes and cucumbers and green peppers and a nice large lawn.

The fall of 1988 is one that will likely burn in their minds for a long time as well, but for totally different reasons.

Sophia McIntosh rests near a construction site where she works as a shop steward in New York. The latest federal data shows about 7.1 million Americans were employed in construction-related occupations last year, and only 2.6 percent were women.

Ladies, put on that hard hat Efforts to recruit women to the construction industry are on the rise

BY DAVID CRARY AP National Writer

N

EW YORK — Janice Moreno graduated from college

with a degree in English literature but never landed a job paying more than $12 an hour. Now, at 36, she’s back in the classroom — in safety glasses and a T-shirt — learning how to be a carpenter.

“I believe it’s going to pay off,” she said amid instruction in sawing techniques.

If Moreno’s six-week training program in New York City leads to a full-time job, she’ll have bucked long odds. On this Labor Day weekend, ponder the latest federal data: About 7.1 million Americans were employed in construction-related occupations last year — and only 2.6 percent were women.

That percentage has scarcely budged since the 1970s, while women have made gains since then in many other fields.

Why the low numbers, in an industry abounding with highpaying jobs that don’t require college degrees? Reasons include a dearth of recruitment efforts aimed at women and hard-to-quash stereotypes that construction work doesn’t suit them.

Another factor, according to a recent report by the National Women’s Law Center, is pervasive sexual harassment of women at work sites.

“It’s not surprising that the construction trades are sometimes called ‘the industry that time forgot,’” said Fatima Goss Graves, the center’s vice president for education and employment. “It’s time for this industry to enter the modern era — to expand apprenticeships and training opportunities for women, hire qualified female

Efforts to accomplish those goals are more advanced in New York than in many parts of the country, with pledges by unions, employers and city officials to boost women’s share of construction jobs. One key player is Nontraditional Employment for Women, or NEW, a nonprofit which offers training programs such as the one taken by Moreno.

The organization has arrangements with several unions to take women directly into their multiyear apprenticeships — at a starting wage of about $17, plus benefits — once they complete the program. After four or five years, they can attain journeyman status, with hourly pay of $40 or more.

Kathleen Culhane, NEW’s interim president, said more than 1,000 graduates have ob-

tained apprenticeships since 2005, and 12 to 15 percent of the apprentices with some leading unions are women.

NEW covers all costs for its students, who must be able to carry 50-pound loads.

Beyond learning job skills, the students do role-playing to get ready for future challenges.

Among the topics, Moreno said, is how to distinguish between flagrant sexual harassment that should be reported, as opposed to less egregious behavior.

“They want us to be prepared for the possibility we won’t be liked, or we’ll be the only woman on the job,” Moreno said.

If young women considering a construction career are in search of a role model, Holley Thomas might fit the bill.

She took up welding at a community college in Alabama, landed a job in 2009 with construction giant KBR Inc., and in 2010 became the first

woman to take first place in welding at the Associated Builders and Contractors’ National Craft Championships, a competition launched in 1987.

Thomas, 29, is now supervising a 10-worker crew at a KBR project in Florida. She speaks occasionally to high school girls, who are impressed by her paycheck that averages more than $2,000 a week.

“The biggest issue is getting through to the parents of the kids, the counselors at the schools and making clear that construction is a viable career,” Thomas said.

Mary Battle also has succeeded with a construction career, although she says it required unwavering toughmindedness.

Now 50, Battle has been working in cement masonry for 30 years and in 2012 became the first woman elected business manager of Plasterers and Cement Masons Local 891 in Washington, D.C. Under her leadership, the number of women in the local group has risen from five to 12, but she says sexist attitudes persist in the industry.

“Men don’t perceive of women as someone coming to work, they perceive of women as a sex object,” Battle said.

For younger women considering a construction career, Battle tells them, “No matter how much negativity you get, keep on the job, and don’t quit.”

A mother of six, Battle credits a devoted baby sitter with helping her handle long work hours. Many construction jobs start in early morning, complicating child-care arrangements for some single mothers.

Another challenge for women is to get their fair share of working hours, according to Elly Spicer, a former carpenter who is now director of training at a technical college affiliated with New York City carpenters unions.

“You’ll find, unquestionably, that women get access to less hours than men,” said Spicer.

“You can’t do this working six

months of the year.”

The management side of the industry insists it would welcome more women.

“Most of our members are desperate to hire people,” said Brian Turmail, public affairs director for the Associated General Contractors of America. “They’re looking for any candidate who’s qualified to come and join the team — women, minorities, veterans.”

Turmail suggested that most women aren’t tempted by construction careers, while those who are interested might be hampered by cutbacks in school-based vocational programs.

The Labor Department plans to award $100 million in grants this year for apprenticeship programs that expand opportunities for women and minorities.

“The reality is that the face of apprenticeship in the construction industry has been white male,” Labor Secretary Thomas Perez said in an interview. “We’re working to ensure the future reflects the face of America.”

A crucial step, Perez said, is to highlight the successes of women who have thrived in construction.

“Women are good at this,” he said. “They’ve punched a ticket to the middle class and speak with great pride of the barriers they’ve overcome.”

Regarding sexual harassment, the Labor Department’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs has pledged to crack down on contractors who fail to prevent serious abuses.

Earlier this year, the office determined that three female carpenters with a Puerto Rico firm were sexually harassed and denied work hours comparable to those of male workers. At times, the company failed to provide the women with a restroom, and they had to relieve themselves outdoors, the office said. Under a conciliation agreement, the company agreed to pay $40,000 to the three women.

Friends continue pickle tradition in Spartanburg

BY JENNY ARNOLD (Spartanburg) Herald-Journal SPARTANBURG — When Betty Bishop and Taylor Correll mix mustard seed, celery seed and dill with water, vinegar and sugar, they get a fire-and-ice pickle that’s good enough to eat straight from the jar.

But for Bishop, the recipe is mixed with love. She recalls memories of her late grandmother and namesake, Betty Neumeyer, the inspiration for Bishop’s Texan Granny variety of pickles.

Neumeyer moved with her husband, Griff, from Texas to Spartanburg in the 1950s. She was her granddaughter’s role model and best friend, the kind of grandma who came to youth theater productions dressed in her fur coat (in July) and paid each young actor $10 to make them feel special.

She dressed all in gold one year for Halloween, declaring herself a “Golden Girl.” Her hair was always done, nails painted red. She was educated, worked as a nurse, supported the arts, helped her husband grow his cotton broker business, gave to charities and loved her church, children and grandchildren.

Neumeyer, also remembered as a fabulous cook, brought her secret recipe for fire-and-ice pickles to Spartanburg, making them for family, friends and co-workers as Christmas gifts.

The younger Betty knew she had made it when her grandmother told her the secret recipe.

“It was a big deal when she taught me how to make pickles,” Betty said, with a smile.

When Neumeyer’s rheumatoid arthritis got so severe that making the pickles became difficult, Betty and her mother, Tracey Bishop, carried on the holiday tradition.

“We were like Mother’s little elves,” Tracey said. “We made the pickles and delivered them to her friends on Christmas Eve.” Tracey and Betty continued the tradition after Neumeyer died in 2007.

“It didn’t feel like the holidays without the pickles,” Betty said. At the time, she didn’t imagine that she’d one day have her own pickle business.

But last year, Betty found herself out of work. She decided to make the pickles and sell them at the Cowpens Farmers’ Market. The reaction from customers to the sweet and spicy pickles was good enough to earn her hundreds of extra dollars a week, and she began producing them on a larger

Betty Bishop works Aug. 18 at the headquarters of Those Pickle Ladies on Union Street in Spartanburg. Bishop learned how to make pickles from her grandmother, who brought her secret recipe for fire-and-ice pickles to Spartanburg. scale in her mother’s kitchen. With encouragement from her mother and aunts, who told her to “go make a million dollars,” it wasn’t long before a brand, Those Pickle Ladies, was born.

Betty is the president of Those Pickle Ladies and makes it clear that her mother owns the business.

“She makes sure the checkbook stays balanced and pays us,” Betty said of her mom.

Correll, Betty’s best friend since second grade at Pine Street Elementary School, works side by side with her each week, brining and mixing the special blend of spices for the cucumbers, which come from North Carolina, in a building on Union Street.

They sterilize the jars, provided by a Roebuck company, dunk them in boiling water to seal them and apply labels created by a graphic artist in Greer. The labels give the product a special touch with a Texan flair. The Texan Granny pickles carry a label with a Lone Star state flag and yellow rose. The Atomic blend, Betty’s brainchild and slightly warmer in spice, is

marked with a longhorn skull. After creating the Atomic pickles, Betty then took it to another level with the Pickles de los Muertos, a ghost chile blend not for the faint of heart. The Muertos pickle jar boasts a sugar skull label.

“Our labels aren’t just labels; they’re a piece of artwork,” Betty said.

The home of Those Pickle Ladies is no coincidence; it’s the former office of Betty’s grandfather, Griff, where he displayed bales of cotton as a successful broker in what was once a booming industry in Spartanburg County.

“I hope I inherited some of his business savvy,” Betty said.

Betty describes fire-and-ice pickles as “like a bread and butter, but more elegant, quite frankly.”

Tracey said customers have told her that they like the crispness of the pickles.

“We’ve had people tell us, ‘I don’t like pickles,’” Tracey said. “We say, ‘Well, just try these.’ And they try them and buy a couple jars.”

She said each has its own personali-

Job gains, strong earnings help market in August

BY ALEX VEIGA AP Business Writer The Standard & Poor’s 500 index delivered its fourth record high in five days Friday, ending with the biggest monthly gain since February.

The milestone-crushing run capped a week when the S&P eclipsed the 2,000-point mark for the first time. And the index ended August with a gain of 3.7 percent.

Six months of solid job gains, strong company earnings and a bevy of corporate deal news contributed to the rally, part of a bull market that’s been rumbling on for more than five years.

The market appeared ready for a correction at the end of July, but the downturn didn’t last long. For most of August, stocks have managed to shake off geopolitical conflicts from Ukraine to Gaza and Iraq.

“The market has a good underlying tone,” said Mike Levine, portfolio manager of Oppenheimer Equity Income Fund. “People feel like the economy is gaining some strength, and the job market is getting better, and corporate earnings should be pretty good.”

Even in a quiet day of trading ahead of the Labor Day holiday, stocks eked out a gain.

The indexes opened higher but eased soon after, as investors digested news that consumer spending fell and income growth slowed in July.

Traders also had their eye on the conflict in Ukraine, as a group of European Union for-

eign ministers accused Russia of invading the eastern region of the country and said Moscow should be punished with more economic sanctions.

The markets began to recoup some losses by midmorning, however, when a gauge of consumer sentiment indicated greater optimism in August, particularly among higher-income groups. Some betterthan-expected company earnings also lifted stocks.

Overall, the indexes wavered between small gains and losses throughout the afternoon.

“We’re seeing a listless, preholiday market,” said Drew Wilson, an investment analyst at Fenimore Asset Management.

The S&P 500 index finished up 6.63 points, or 0.3 percent, to 2,003.37.

The S&P 500 closed above 2,000 for the first time on Tuesday and has gained 8.4 percent this year.

The Dow Jones industrial average gained 18.88 points, or 0.1 percent, to 17,098.45.

The Nasdaq composite added 22.58 points, or 0.5 percent, to 4,580.27.

Stocks rose broadly, with all 10 sectors in the S&P 500 index higher for the day, led by utilities.

The gains marked the index’s best August since 2000.

“It’s been a good August,” said Linda Duessel, senior equity market strategist at Federated Investors. “I imagine it’s the end of the month, and people closing their books are saying, ‘I better show I’m invested, we had a brand-new high this week,’” she said.

ty. The Texan Granny is the mildest variety but classy, like the yellow rose on its label, with a sweet flavor that would complement pulled pork barbecue.

The Pickles de los Muertos, while still fire and ice with its sweet and spicy blend, is another breed altogether. People feel like “rock stars” after conquering Pickles de los Muertos on a sandwich, Betty said. Betty and Correll must wear masks while making the Muertos because of the fumes created by the ghost chiles.

“This is the death pickle,” she said.

“I like to market it to big, macho guys and then watch them cry. It’s a fun little challenge. It’s not a beginner’s spice pickle.”

It’s not really the spices so much that make Those Pickle Ladies’ products so unique — it’s the two-brine method Betty uses.

“That’s all I’m going to say,” Betty said with a smile. “Anything other than that and my granny would roll over in her grave. I think that’s why they’re so good; they’re so different.”

Beer gardens helping budgets MILWAUKEE (AP) — Oversized mugs of beer clink together as drinkers sitting under a canopy of trees in a Milwaukee public park listen to live accordion music and proclaim “Prost!” — the German equivalent of “cheers.”

It’s a scene that harkens back 150 years, when Germans brought breweries and beer gardens to the city, until Prohibition shut the gathering spots down in the early 20th century.

But traditional beer gardens are back in Milwaukee County, as some parks departments nationwide are starting to embrace once-banned alcohol to shore up their budgets. And regulars at the Estabrook Park Beer Garden in Milwaukee love that they can bring their picnic baskets of snacks to the lines of tables along the Milwaukee River and enjoy drinks in the short-lived warm summer air.

“This is our Regal Beagle if you will,” said 36-year-old salesman Andrew Geisler, referring to the bar in the television show “Three’s Company.”

Rich Dolesh, vice president for conservation and parks at the National Recreation and Parks Association, said many parks departments still ban alcohol but have eased the rules for festivals, concerts, golf courses and weddings.

What’s new is making beer or wine a prominent feature of an ongoing event, he said.

“It’s fair to say it’s unusual, but it’s the coming trend,” he said.

In Charleston County, South Carolina, the parks department makes about $4,000 for each Yappy Hour in the summer, which

involves dogs, bands, wine and beer. That kind of creative thinking has helped more than double the parks budget to $48 million in the last 10 years without raising taxes, said Tom O’Rourke, executive director of the county’s Park and Recreation Commission.

“If the government doesn’t get into the beer or alcohol business, it’s not like it’s not going to happen,” he said. “The same events are going to go on, and the outside vendors are going to make the profit.”

Word of Milwaukee County’s beer garden success is catching on, with the parks department receiving inquiries from Atlanta, Seattle and Cleveland. The parks director is speaking about beer in parks in October at the National Recreation and Parks Conference.

County officials estimate that from the time the first garden started in 2012 through the end of this season in September, they will have brought in $560,000 for the county.

“None of us are getting as much (revenue) as we used to,” said County Executive Chris Abele. “And we don’t want to just pass costs on to taxpayers.”

Beer gardens weren’t terribly hard for people to accept in Milwaukee County, which has one of the highest numbers of people with German ancestry in the country.

While most big breweries moved years ago, beer is still ingrained in the culture, with several smaller breweries such as Sprecher Brewing Co. Not to mention the Milwaukee Brewers play in a stadium called Miller Park.

Lesson learned: You’re never too old to learn I

find that I’m never too old to learn from my mistakes. That was pointed out to me just last Monday afternoon.

My lovely bride, Sherri, and I had been on our annual anniversary trip. This one makes No. 34, and on the way home she mentioned that Earle we would be home early Woodward enough in the AFIELD & afternoon to AFLOAT for me to get out into the woods for awhile. I don’t know; maybe she’d seen enough of me over the last four days and just wanted me out of her hair for awhile or something, but I’m not one to turn that down.

Due to the prevailing wind direction, I chose to go to a ground blind that was situated just off of a well- used trail. I had never hunted from this ground blind and was anxious to give it a try.

For the last several years, I had watched as almost all of the deer I was seeing from my tree stand came from one area, came through an opening in the trees and then diverged along one of three different trails. The old stand was on one of the three divergent trails, so if the deer took either of the other two, I was out of luck.

The thought occurred that if I moved the stand to the other side of the opening in the trees, then I would be where the trails come together instead of where they spread out. I found a reasonably good tree and hung a tree stand in it and placed the ground blind about 20 yards on the other side of the trail.

That allows me to hunt the location on almost any wind direction.

I thought I was being smart by marking a trail into the ground blind that swung out and close to the opening in the trees. Most of the deer were coming from the other direction and by doing so, they would already be past me by the time they hit my trail. In

theory, it works pretty well.

Kind of like the federal government, what looks good in theory usually doesn’t work too well in the real world. Unlike the government, I can learn from my errors.

I walked into the area on a fire lane, cut across country to the trail swinging out and came into the back of the blind. I crawled inside and immediately realized that I had a problem.

The first hunt from a stand or blind almost always comes with its complement of little problems to be identified and corrected before the next hunt. My chair was too low and the brush I had put around the outside of the blind to camouflage it was too high. I had to change the window configuration to be able to shoot from the chair and break off some branches outside for arrow clearance.

I watched the squirrels and birds for the better part of an hour without seeing a thing.

Then about deer time, that time of day after sunset and before dark when deer are more apt to move, I caught

movement out the corner of my left eye. Further inspection proved it to be a doe coming down the trail. I really hadn’t expected them to be coming from that spot, but there she was.

As she came down the trail, she was followed by a second, third, fourth and fifth deer, all does.

Hey, does aren’t legal for another couple of weeks, but once they are, I have no problem putting one in the freezer.

I practiced some movements in the chair just to be sure that it didn’t make too much noise and that I wasn’t seen.

As deer No. 3 arrived in my shooting lane, deer No. 1 hit the trail that I had come in on and stopped dead in her tracks.

Now I had taken a shower in unscented soap, I was wearing scent-control clothing and I had sprayed my boots down with some of that super duper scent-elimination spray, but the doe still caught my scent.

I’m telling you, you cannot beat a deer’s nose, I don’t care how hard you try. All the special stuff helps, but up close

and personal, it ain’t working.

The doe went on high alert and took a couple of steps backward and then spun around and trotted back in the direction from which she had come. The others followed suit. One of the does decided that she needed to explore the smell some more and came back over, but she too quickly left after just a sniff or two.

If I had wanted to shoot deer No. 1, 2 or 3, I would have been fine, but if deer No. 4 had been the one for me, I would have been out of luck.

So, what did I learn? I learned that I was not as smart as I thought I was. Since deer always follow one another in single file, instead of walking side by side, I had placed my access path much too close to the deer trail and ground blind.

I now know that I need to move my access path to the other side of the pinch point opening in the trees and come in from farther downhill to avoid a repeat of Monday’s events.

I’ll start working on that right away. After all, I’m never too old to learn from my mistakes.

FISHING REPORTS

PHOTOS BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Shaun the shaggy Australian sheep is shown being shorn by farmers in Midlands, Australia, on Thursday.

Shaun the shaggy Aussie sheep yields 7 years, 52 pounds of wool SYDNEY (AP) — Shaun the shaggy Australian sheep has at last been shorn smooth. But the woolly wanderer wasn’t the wooliest of them all.

The sheep apparently had been hiding for years on a farm on the island state of Tasmania and had never been shorn. The Australian Broadcasting Corp. reported Thursday that Shaun lost 52 pounds of wool at his first haircut.

Owners Peter and Netty Hazel had hoped Shaun would beat a record held by a now-deceased New Zealand sheep named Shrek.

Shrek rose to fame in 2004 after he was found hiding in caves on his farm, having evaded the annual shearing roundups for seven years.

He had 60 pounds of wool shorn off his body.

Shaun receives his haircut for the first time in seven years, losing 52 pounds of wool, but failed to break the record set in 2004.

Youth deer hunts set for Manchester The S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) will conduct three youth deer hunts at Manchester State Forest in Sumter County on Oct. 11, Nov. 1 and Nov. 15.

Completed applications to participate in the hunts must be received at the Columbia DNR office by 5 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 26.

All applicants must be 17 years old or younger. There is no application fee or any other costs associated with these hunts. Participants who are 16 and 17 will be required to have a junior hunting license.

Young people who have an interest in trying deer hunting,

but have not had previous opportunities because they lacked a hunting connection are encouraged to apply.

Each of the hunts will be on Saturday afternoons and will conclude at sunset. Five youths will be selected for each hunt by random drawing.

At each hunt there will be a brief discussion of deer biology and the role of hunting in wildlife management along with detailed comments regarding sportsmanship and hunter ethics. There will be a thorough review of firearm safety.

Manchester State Forest is an approximately 300-acre tract located 10 miles southwest of

Wedgefield off of S.C. Highway 261. This area has been a wildlife sanctuary for years and has received very little hunting pressure from the surrounding area.

Applications are available from the Columbia DNR office or the DNR website at http:// www.dnr.sc.gov/hunting/youthhunting/youthhuntingapp.html.

Applications can also be copied and returned to: SCDNR Youth Deer Hunts, Attn: Willie Simmons, P.O. Box 167, Columbia, SC 29202.

For further questions, contact DNR wildlife biologist Simmons at (803) 734-3898 or by email SimmonsW@dnr.sc.gov.

Santee Cooper System Catfish: Slow. Captain Jim Glenn reports that fishing remains slow.

Try drifting and anchoring with cut bait.

Largemouth bass: Very slow.

Captain Steve English reports that bass fishing activity is light to nonexistent on the Santee Cooper lakes right now. If anglers are willing to put in a lot of time fish may be catchable around cypress trees, but there is no easy pattern right now.

Many fish are probably out deeper following bait schools where they are more difficult to target. In the Santee and Cooper Rivers there is better bass fishing right now.

Lake Murray Largemouth bass: Slow to fair.

Lake World reports that bass fishing is pretty slow on the lake. A basic pattern remains fishing topwater plugs early in the morning, and then when the sun gets up fishing slow sinking swimbaits and jigs off long points. Carolina rigs and shakey head worms should also catch some fish.

Crappie: Slow to fair. Lake World reports that down the lake crappie fishing has been slow, but up the lake some fish are being caught around main-lake brush in about 20-25 feet of water.

Lake Wateree Largemouth Bass: Fair to good.

FLW Angler Dearal Rodgers reports that the deep bite on Lake Wateree is pretty good right now. Fish around ledges, humps and points with deep water nearby. The best action is coming on jigs and Carolina rigs, but it’s worth throwing deep-diving crankbaits, too. Dearal reminds anglers not to rule out dock fishing in the summer, but target docks that are either in deep water (15 or more feet) or at least close to it. Docks near creek channels can be particularly productive.

Lake Greenwood Largemouth Bass: Slow to fair.

Veteran tournament angler Stan Gunter reports that fishing has gotten pretty tough on Lake Greenwood, including the deep bite which is not as good as it was a few weeks ago. The best pattern may be fishing shallow early in the morning around bream beds and with topwater lures/ floating worms around the sea walls. Later in the day try fishing worms around brushpiles or flipping docks.

Lake Monticello Catfish: Fair to good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that the big fish bite is starting to get a bit more predictable, but with another wave of fish still likely to spawn it may not get very consistent for another week or so. In contrast, the small fish “numbers” bite has been really good. For both big and little fish the best action has come in the 40-60 foot range. Free-line drifting is traditionally a method for targeting smaller fish, while anchoring on points and humps in the key depth range will catch both bigger and smaller fish.

Lake Russell Striped bass: Fair. Guide Wendell Wilson reports that striper are traditionally found on both ends of the lake at this time of year, but unfortunately fishing in the Hartwell Tailrace has been pretty spotty. Some fish have been caught up there but a lot of anglers have also been skunked.

Crappie: Fair. Guide Wendell Wilson reports that crappie can be found around brushpiles in 20-25 feet of water. Fish are suspending about 10-12 feet down and minnows are the best way to target them.

Lake Thurmond Black bass: Slow. Buckeye Lures in Augusta reports that fish are in a summer pattern but the bite is slower than usual with water levels dropping fast. Early in the morning there is sometimes a frog bite, but from day to day it has been rather hit-or-miss. Later in the day most anglers are fishing deeper with Carolina Rigs and other soft plastic presentations such as the Goby Sled. There has also been some action on shakey head worms fished around docks.

Lake Wylie Catfish: Fair. Try anchoring and drifting with cut bait, and look for the fishing to get better and better as the spawn gets further in the rear view mirror.

Lake Jocassee Largemouth and Spotted Bass: Slow to fair. Guide Brad Fowler reports that bass fishing has slowed on Lake Keowee as water temperatures have warmed, although the general pattern remains pretty similar. Early in the morning fish are chasing bait pretty well around shallow, flat points, and throwing topwater lures around shallow water has been producing.

Lake Keowee Catfish: Hit and miss. Captain Chris Simpson reports that the big fish bite is starting to get a bit more predictable, but with another wave of fish still likely to spawn it may not get very consistent for another week or so.

In contrast, the small fish “numbers” bite has been really good. For both big and little fish the best action has come in the 40-60 foot range. Lake Hartwell Black bass: Fair. Guide Brad Fowler reports that the pattern remains pretty similar, with fish mixed between shallow and deep water. A significant number of fish are up shallow, either because they are keying on bream beds or just cruising around the old growth from when the lake levels were down. Buzzbaits, frogs and soft plastics will all work.

Crappie: Slow. Captain Bill Plumley reports that crappie fishing remains pretty tough, but fish can be caught around bridges at night. During the day some crappie have also been caught over brush 17-25 feet deep in about 30 feet of water. Minnows are producing best but slabtail jigs will also catch fish.
