Voters relate with Hillary

Clinton wins S.C. Black vote proves important for victory over Sen. Sanders COLUMBIA (AP) — Hillary Clinton overwhelmed Bernie Sanders in Saturday’s South Carolina primary, drawing staggering support from the state’s black Democrats and seizing an increasingly strong position as the presidential race barrels toward Super Tuesday’s crucial contests.

Clinton’s lopsided win — she led by almost 50 points with about three-fourths of the vote counted — provided an important boost for her campaign and a moment to wipe away bitter memories of her loss to Barack Obama in South Carolina eight years ago.

CLINTON She won the support of nearly 9 in 10 black voters, crucial Democratic backers who abandoned her for Obama in 2008.

During a raucous victory rally, Clinton briefly reveled in her sweeping support from South Carolina voters, hugging backers and posing with them for selfie photos.

But then she pivoted quickly to the contests to come.

“Tomorrow this campaign goes national,” she said.

“We are not taking anything, and we are not taking anyone for granted.”

Sanders, expecting defeat, left the state even before voting was finished and turned his attention to states that vote in next Tuesday’s delegate-rich contests.

“In politics on a given night, sometimes you win; sometimes you lose,” Sanders said after arriving in Minnesota.

“Tonight we lost.”

Clinton’s victory came at the end of a day that saw Republican candidates firing insults at each other from Super Tuesday states.

Donald Trump, working to build an insurmountable lead, was campaigning in Arkansas with former rival Chris Christie and calling Marco Rubio a “light little nothing;” Ted Cruz was asking parents in Atlanta if they would be pleased if their children spouted profanities like the brash billionaire, and Rubio was mocking Trump as a “con artist” with “the worst spray tan in America.”

Clinton allies quickly touted the breadth of her victory.

Cruz, Rubio escalate case against Trump

County ordinance to alert residents to rules surrounding travel of tractor-trailer trucks

ATLANTA (AP) — With Super Tuesday approaching, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz escalated their argument Saturday that Donald Trump is a conservative impostor, trying to make the case to voters they can keep the ascendant billionaire from claiming the Republican presidential nomination.

At a rally outside the Georgia Capitol, Cruz went after Trump’s positions on immigration and gun control, criticized his ethics and hammered him for his frequent use of profanity.

The county introduced an ordinance during Sumter County Council’s meeting on Feb. 23 that would make companies responsible for repairing residential roads damaged by their tractor-trailer trucks.

County Council approved first reading of the ordinance during its meeting and will consider second reading during its next meeting on March 8.

Sumter County Administrator Gary Mixon said this practice has always been in place, and the ordinance has been introduced to formalize the information so the public will have a better understanding

According to the ordinance, the owner or operator of tractor-trailer trucks, or any vehicle with more than eight wheels, will need to give a notice to the Sumter County Public Works director if they plan for the vehicle to travel on streets in residential subdivisions more than once within a 48-hour period.

The notice will have to include a reason for the numerous trips; the size, weight and planned speed of the vehicle; the number and frequency of planned trips; and duration of the activity. Once the public works department has the planned

Man raises concern about litter in Cherryvale area

BY ADRIENNE SARVIS adrienne@theitem.com Sumter County resident Alphonso Johnson is raising awareness and concern about the amount of litter in his neighborhood.

Johnson is a resident of the Cherryvale area and is trying to find a solution to the ongoing litter problem.

Johnson recently brought his concerns to Sumter County Council during the group’s meeting on Feb. 23.

He said the people living in the area are not the ones dropping the trash.

Litterers are dropping trash in areas where many people do not live or commute, he said.

One of the areas most saturated with trash includes land in front of an abandoned trailer on Harwood Drive in the Cherryvale area.

It’s the people traveling through the area, he said.

Johnson has also spoken with Sumter County officials and Sheriff Anthony Dennis

KEITH GEDAMKE / THE SUMTER ITEM

Alphonso Johnson is tired of the litter in the Cherryvale community, such as this on Harwood Drive. Johnson has complained to County Council as well as the Sheriff in an attempt to get the illegal dumping stopped. about the litter problem.

“We really do have a concern with litter throughout the county,” said Sumter County Administrator Gary Mixon.

But, although the county is aware of the problem, Mixon said the county does not have the resources avail-

able to have regular litter pick up.

He said the county used to have litter pick up, but now it does not have the number of people needed to manage the operation.

Inmates from the detention center used to clean the roadways in the past as well,

but they have not been out in a while, he said.

Mixon said he strongly encourages residents to come together to keep their neighborhoods clean and report anyone seen littering.

Dennis said code enforcement officers have recently been out in the Cherryvale area citing people who have been littering.

He said deputies are equipped with protective gloves to look through garbage bags to find names and addresses to track down people who litter.

Dennis said residents should alert law enforcement to individuals who litter and provide any information they may have about the offender such as a name or license plate number.

The sheriff said people who are caught littering can be charged with a fine not exceeding $1,000.

If anyone sees individuals littering in the county, they should call the sheriff’s office at (803) 436-2774.

Officers remember fallen friend

BY RICK CARPENTER rick@theitem.com Clarendon and Sumter county sheriff’s deputies gathered Friday to remember a fallen comrade who died in the line of duty 20 years ago.

Sumter County Sheriff’s Office’s Sgt. Charles Kubala Sr. was shot and killed while investigating a suspicious person call on Taylor Street on Feb. 26, 1996. Kubala was shot once in the neck and once in the head after a confrontation with Bobby Wayne Stone, who was sentenced to the death penalty for the murder.

Eric Rosdail, an investigator with the Clarendon County Sheriff’s Office, had originally organized a bicycle ride from Clarendon to Sumter to place a wreath

on the Sumter County Law Enforcement Officers’ Memorial on the 20th anniversary of his death. Clarendon County officers participate in an annual bicycle ride from Virginia to Washington, D.C., to remember fallen officers.

Plans changed, but representatives from South Carolina Department of Corrections, the Sumter sheriff’s office and the Clarendon sheriff’s office gathered at the memorial Friday while Rosdail and Pete Surette, an assistant chief of the department of corrections, placed wreaths in memory of Kubala.

Rosdail said the shooting affected local law enforcement agencies not RICK CARPENTER / THE SUMTER ITEM only because he was a fellow officer, Two wreaths were placed at the Sumter County Law Enforcement Officers’ Memorial on but also because they knew him well.

Trump wins Christie endorsement, slowing Rubio FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Friday endorsed GOP front-runner Donald Trump, delivering a surprise and powerful boost to the billionaire businessman, whom he called the best Republican candidate to lead the country and beat Democrat Hillary Clinton.

“I’ve gotten to know all the people on that stage and there is none who is better prepared to provide America with the strong leadership that it needs both at home and around the world than Donald Trump,” Christie said at a news conference in Texas.

Reporters were visibly stunned when he walked into the room.

“I can guarantee you that the one person that Hillary and Bill Clinton do

not want to see on that stage come next September is Donald Trump,” said Christie, who dropped his own bid for the presidency earlier this month after a disappointing finish in New Hampshire.

The endorsement, the first for Trump from a sitting governor and a TRUMP former rival, comes at a particularly opportune time for the real estate mogul, who on Thursday night faced a barrage of new attacks from rival Marco Rubio during the final debate ahead of next week’s Super Tuesday contests, where large numbers of delegates are at stake. And it under-

BBQ FROM PAGE A2 Scouts summer camp, and the winter and fall “camporees” and more.

Last year’s event attracted 14 teams from across the state and raised $6,060, Button said.

The event will be judged by about 30 certified judges from the South Carolina Barbeque Association, according to Harold Chandler, event marshal.

Barbecue teams will offer up chicken wings for judging Friday night. Saturday will be the main event with teams competing for prize money in pulled pork and rib competitions.

Meats are judged on appearance, aroma, taste, texture and tenderness, Chandler said.

Scores are tallied to determine a winner and runnersup based on all the factors that go into mastering barbecue. Chandler said the association judges up to 50 events per year across the state.

Potential judges have to pass a one-day seminar and judge four events at the “novice” table where master judges teach about the finer points of scoring barbecue. Once

they’ve completed the seminar and judged four events as novices, they can be a certified SCBA judge. After judging 15 events and cooking with at least one team, you can move to senior judge, and 15 more events after that gets you to master judge.

The SCBA conducts a yearlong contest running from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 and each year the contest is held in more than 35 different towns and cities across the state. At the end of the year, the team with the 10 highest scores is the winner and is named the South Carolina State Barbeque Championship Team.

Tuesday is the deadline for teams to enter Saturday’s competition. For more information, contact Glenn Button at (803) 983-9934 or glenn.button@yahoo.com.

First place winner will receive $1,000 for the pulled pork competition, second place winner will receive $750 and third place will receive $500. The first and second place finishers for the rib competition will

scored the extent to which Trump has managed to dominate the news cycle and starve rivals of momentum just as they appear to be on the rise.

Rubio hit at Trump’s business record, history of hiring foreign workers and his vague policy positions during the debate. The broadsides clearly irritated Trump and threatened to provide Rubio with a jolt of new momentum as he seeks to turn the contest into a two-man race.

Rubio’s team had unveiled a flood of endorsements in recent days to cast him as the GOP’s preferred alternative to Trump, including nods from the governors from Tennessee, Arkansas and South Carolina.

“I think this changes the narrative in a dramatic way,” said Fred Malek, a major Republican fundraiser.

The timing immediately after the debate, however, appeared to be a coincidence. A former Christie campaign official said the governor made his decision to endorse Trump on Thursday following a meeting in Manhattan attended by the two men and their wives.

Christie was already on a plane heading to Texas as the debate was airing, according to the former official, who was not authorized to speak publically on Christie’s behalf and spoke on the condition of anonymity.

FACT CHECK: GOP DEBATE

Trump’s memory on Libya seems spotty EDITOR’S NOTE: A look at political claims that take shortcuts with the facts or don’t tell the full story WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump is displaying a spotty memory about his past views on foreign policy.

Just as he claimed to have loudly opposed the Iraq invasion before it happened, which he didn’t, Trump claimed in the latest Republican presidential debate that he never called for U.S. intervention in Libya, which he did.

Some claims made in the Thursday’s debate and how they stack up against the facts: TED CRUZ: Trump “agreed with the Obama-Clinton policy of toppling the government in Libya. That was a disaster.

It gave the country over to radical Islamic terrorism and it endangered America.”

TRUMP: “He said I was in favor of Libya? I never discussed that subject. I was in favor of Libya? We would be so much better off if Gadhafi were in charge right now.”

THE FACTS: He actually argued on numerous occasions, and fervently so, that the U.S. should intervene to stop a humanitarian disaster in Libya.

He said the U.S. would have a “major black eye” if it didn’t take out Moammar Gadhafi, the autocratic leader.

In a February 2011 video captured on BuzzFeed not long before the U.S. and NATO stepped in, he said, “Gadhafi in Libya is killing thousands of people; nobody knows how bad it is.

“And we’re sitting around, we have soldiers all over the Middle East, and we’re not bringing them in to stop this horrible carnage. And that’s

what it is. ... We should go in, we should stop this guy, which would be very easy and very quick, we could do it surgically. ... This is absolutely nuts, we don’t want to get involved.”

True to his business principles, Trump proposed sending Libya’s successor government a bill for the U.S. intervention: “From your oil, we want reimbursement.”

CRUZ: “The Obama-Clinton economy has done enormous damage to the Hispanic community.”

THE FACTS: The bursting of the housing bubble in late 2007 is what really damaged the Hispanic community, before Obama took office.

Under Obama, Hispanics have made strides from the depths of the Great Recession.

Their unemployment rate is 5.9 percent. The rate is above the national average of 4.9 percent, but it’s well below the 2009 peak of 13 percent.

Hispanics have gained 5 million jobs under Obama, a 25 percent increase since 2009.

Under George W. Bush, there was a 21 percent growth of 3.45 million jobs.

But there is one key area where Hispanics are struggling to recover: Median income for that group was $28,757 in 2014, about $1,644 less than in 2007 after adjusting for inflation.

Cruz exaggerates when calling it the Obama-Clinton economy. Hillary Clinton was his secretary of state with little or no influence on his economic policy.

MARCO RUBIO: “It is a health care law that is basically forcing companies to lay people off, cut people’s hours, move people to part-time. It is not just a bad health care law; it is a job-killing law.”

THE FACTS: The claim that Obama’s health care law is a job-killer is hard to square with the fact that the economy has added more than 13.4 million jobs since the law took effect. The unemployment rate has fallen to 4.9 percent from 9.9 percent since Obama signed the act.

Nor is there evidence that workers are being moved en masse to part-time hours. The number of part-time workers has actually fallen slightly since the health care law was passed: There were 27.6 million part-timers working in March 2010, and there are 26.3 million now.

To be sure, about 6 million of those with part-time jobs would prefer full-time work but have been unable to find it. That figure has declined steadily from 9 million since the Great Recession ended in June 2009, though it is still high.

The persistence of “involuntary” part-time employment has led many economists to worry that it could be a long-term problem, but they disagree on whether the health care overhaul is the root cause of that.

TRUMP on coarse language used by former Mexican President Vicente Fox about Trump’s proposal to make Mexico pay for a fortress-like wall along the border: “I saw him use the word that he used. I can only tell you, if I would have used even half of that word, it would have been national scandal. This guy used a filthy, disgusting word on television, and he should be ashamed of himself, and he should apologize, OK?” THE FACTS: At issue, it must be said, is the F-bomb. Fox dropped it when denouncing Trump’s plans for the wall.

Trump, meantime, has run a profanity-laced campaign, blurted out the S-word on multiple occasions and used an offensive term for coward against rival Ted Cruz.

But what about THAT bomb?

At a rally in New Hampshire, he declared: “We’re not going to let Mexico steal all our businesses. ... We’re going to bring business back. ... And you can tell them to go” — pausing — “themselves because they let you down, and they left.”

He didn’t say the word. He mouthed it.

And Trump used the word loudly and several times in a 2011 Nevada speech before he was a candidate.

RUBIO: Repeats a flawed claim to have wiped out an insurance “bailout” in President Obama’s health care law.

“When they passed Obamacare they put a bailout fund in Obamacare ... we led the ef-

FARM

fort and wiped out that bailout fund.”

THE FACTS: Rubio was a vocal opponent of the “bailout.” But Republicans weren’t able to wipe it out — just to limit it. And other GOP lawmakers say Rubio did not engineer the maneuver.

At issue is a part of the health care law called “risk corridors,” intended to compensate insurers that signed up sicker-than-expected patients under the health care law, incurring high costs. The government could pay just 13 percent of risk-corridor claims last year because of lower-than-expected fees paid by insurers who were doing well financially. Congressional Republicans barred the administration from using taxpayer dollars to make up the difference, but Rubio wasn’t responsible for that move.

Exercise boosts brain health A lzheimer’s disease is a progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions. It is the most common cause of dementia — loss of thinking, remembering and reasoning.

There are more than 3 million reported cases per year in the U.S. alone. There is no cure; the disorder is irreversible. We all know that exercise is great for improving physical health, but more research has linked exercise to brain health.

Scientists claim that evidence shows exercise prevents the brain from shrinking, increases cognitive abilities and the ability to grow new brain cells. Brain volume is a factor of the age of the brain. Atrophy of the brain is related to cognitive decline and an increased risk for dementia. A recent study published findings that low levels of exercise in midlife led to lower brain volume later in life.

Exercise is a modifiable factor, one that you can control to improve your brain health. But how does exercise help

Rubio kept up a barrage of insults aimed at Trump.

Speaking at a football stadium at Mount Paran Christian School in suburban Atlanta, Rubio said Trump has “the worst spray tan in America.”

“Donald Trump likes to sue people,” Rubio said. “He should sue whoever did that to his face.”

The quip drew laughs.

Rubio quickly turned to immigration and kept up his criticism that the real estate mogul has employed people living in the country illegally.

“I will do whatever it takes,” Rubio said. “I will campaign as long as it takes.

Donald Trump, a con artist, will never get control of this party.”

Georgia is one of 11 states that will hold GOP presidential primaries Tuesday, when 595 delegates will be at stake.

Super Tuesday is the biggest single-day delegate haul of the nomination contests and, says Cruz, “the single best opportunity to defeat Donald Trump.”

Democrats also vote in 11 states, as well as in American Samoa.

The Texas senator appealed for each supporter to get nine others to vote for him Tuesday.

In Tennessee, Ohio Gov. John Kasich won the endorsement of former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, now dean of Belmont University’s law school.

Gonzales was White House counsel under President George W. Bush before becoming the nation’s first Hispanic attorney general in

Kasich praised Gonzales for his work “in a very difficult time in our nation’s history.”

“Sometimes you have to take a stand, and that’s what Judge Gonzales did when he was attorney general of the United States,” he said.

Trump, the GOP front-runner who has won three states in a row after losing in Iowa’s caucuses to Cruz, held a campaign rally in Arkansas with Chris Christie, the New Jersey governor and former presidential candidate who dropped out of the race after a sixth place finish in New Hampshire.

“This guy has a fresh mouth,” Trump said of Rubio. He called him a “light little nothing.” Their raw feud flared in the last debate when a newly aggressive Rubio went relentlessly after the billionaire, and it hasn’t subsided since. Trump took specific issue with Rubio’s new line that the billionaire is a “con artist.”

“I built a great business,” he said, adding that he wished his father had given him $200 million as Rubio alleged in the debate. Trump said he got a $1 million loan, which he said he paid back.

Piling on, Cruz said if Republicans nominate Trump, Americans will make Hillary Clinton the next president, a prediction that assumes she wins the Democratic nomination instead of Bernie Sanders. Cruz slammed Trump’s past support for the Brady Bill, gun control legislation that President Bill Clinton signed into law in 1993.

“Anybody who would support Bill Clinton’s ban on some of the most popular weapons in America is not a committed conservative,” Cruz said.

A study of 600 seniors over the age of 70 found that those who engaged in the most exercise had the least amount of brain shrinkage in a three-year period.

But it isn’t just the exercise that is important. It is your daily lifestyle, the non-exercise movements, that also affect your brain function. Research has shown that 6 hours of uninterrupted sitting counteracts the positive health benefits of one hour of exercise. So if you have a desk job where you sit a lot, be sure to take frequent breaks to stand up and walk around.

If you are unable to participate in aerobic-type activity, research shows that resistance training has the same benefits on brain health. In general, any type of physical activity can positively influence the brain’s ability to think and learn, and it also boosts memory. When you exercise, various hormones are released including growth factors and proteins that support the brain. So be sure to stay active throughout your days.

Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton smiles to the crowd when she visited Sumter Wednesday.

She beat out Bernie Sanders in Saturday’s Democratic Primary.

JIM HILLEY / THE SUMTER ITEM

PRIMARIES FROM PAGE A1 Besides blacks, she won most women and voters aged 25 and older, according to early exit polls.

Sanders continued to do well with young voters, his most passionate supporters. He also carried those who identified themselves as independents.

All registered voters could vote in either the Democratic or Republican primary but not in both.

A self-described democratic socialist, Sanders has energized his supporters with impassioned calls for breaking up Wall Street banks and making tuition free at public colleges and universities.

But the senator from Vermont, a state where about 1 percent of the population is black, lacks Clinton’s deep ties to the black community.

Still, he did invest heavily in South Carolina, with 200 paid staff on the ground and an aggressive television advertising campaign.

Exit polls showed 6 in 10 voters in the primary were black, by far the largest proportion in any of the contests so far.

About 7 in 10 said they wanted the next president to continue Obama’s policies, and only about 20 percent wanted a more liberal course of action, according to the polls conducted by Edison Research for The Associated Press and television networks.

Companies experiment with build-your-own smartphone programs NEW YORK — If you could build your dream smartphone, what would it look like? Now suppose you could put it together yourself.

That’s the promise of modular design, a new concept in smartphones that would basically let you snap together different components like Lego blocks. Say you want a great camera. Snap! A vivid screen and good sound because you watch a lot of video? Snap! But maybe you could live with a smaller battery because you spend most of your day at home or work. Snap!

Sure, phones now offer choices in color and storage.

Motorola goes a bit further in letting you choose custom backs made of wood or leather.

But the rest of the phone is pretty standard. You’re stuck with the processor, battery and other hardware chosen by Motorola, Apple, Samsung and other tech companies.

With modular design, you could just pay for the components you need instead of settling for whatever manufacturers put in their designs. And instead of buying a new phone every year or two, you could just upgrade individual parts as they wear out or become obsolete.

LG is dipping its toes in the modular-design concept with its upcoming G5 smartphone, announced this week at a wireless conference. The bottom of the phone pops out to let you swap in new hardware. For starters, you’ll be able to attach a camera grip with physical shutter buttons or insert a high-fidelity audio system if regular MP3-quality sound isn’t good enough for you.

Google’s Project Ara, which isn’t making products yet, is also outlining a modular-design approach that starts with a structural frame and lets you add cameras, sensors and batteries. Google figures a phone could cost as little as $50 using the most basic parts.

A Dutch startup called Fairphone is selling the $580 Fairphone 2 online. Though it comes assembled, you can replace the screen for less than $100 or the camera for $40. An expansion port will let people add components — perhaps for wireless charging or mobile

payments — that Fairphone or outside parties make in the future.

Chinese phone maker ZTE has circulated concept designs.

Other startups exploring modular phones include Finland’s PuzzlePhone (as in the components fit together like a puzzle).

Modular phone design is similar to how hobbyists build their own personal computers or soup up their cars. But there’s no guarantee the idea will take off.

For one thing, modular design is itself a trade-off. Many consumers want phones to be thin, light and power efficient, and that means all the parts have to be tightly integrated.

You give that up when you go modular.

Samsung, for instance, rejects modular design, preferring to offer “the best combination of features and functionality” in a compact and elegant design, says Justin Denison, Samsung’s senior vice president for U.S. product strategy

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

and marketing.

Modular design also isn’t easy. Project Ara missed its 2015 target for a pilot project in Puerto Rico and suggested in cryptic tweets that designing modules has proven more complicated than expected.

Google had no further comment.

Ronan de Renesse, lead analyst for consumer technology with the research firm Ovum, says many parts in smartphones are designed specifically to work together. Swap in a new camera or screen, and the older processors might not know what to do with it. The

camera might stutter, the screen might blink and both might drain the battery faster than expected.

Lego-like parts also could allow dust or water to intrude into the phone’s innards. Their connections might also give way over time.

“I don’t think those phones are going to be reliable enough for the mass market,” de Renesse says.

There’s already some buzz about the phones. Fairphone has sold about 35,000 units and is targeting 150,000 this year.

The company says many of its customers are environmental-

ly conscious about e-waste and don’t need up-to-the-minute advances in phone technology.

LG’s G5 isn’t fully modular, as users couldn’t replace processors, cameras and screens themselves. LG’s Frank Lee says the modular design for now is mostly about enhancing the phone’s capabilities with optional features. But perhaps one day, he says, people will be able to swap in a slower, but more power-efficient processor on days they’ll be away from chargers.

In the future, he says, “we won’t be referring to them as phones anymore.”

Exercise and Arthritis

Physical therapy a vital part of treatment and recovery Illnesses of the musculoskeletal system can result in temporary loss of mobility. But physical therapy can help to prevent those temporary problems from becoming permanent.

The American Physical Therapy Association says physical therapists diagnose and treat individuals of all ages who have conditions that limit their abilities to perform functional activities.

Limitations in mobility may result from injury or illness or be present at birth. Many physical therapists develop a plan to reduce pain and restore function through various treatment techniques with the ultimate goal of restoring a patient’s functional independence.

Physical therapists are licensed healthcare professionals who must receive a degree from an accredited physical therapist program before taking national licensure exams that enable them to open a practice or work in a facility.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a 30 percent growth in physical therapy careers through 2018, which is a rate better than all other occupations.

Unemployment rates for physical therapists are very low, and they are in high

demand.

Physical therapists employ various physical modalities to help with certain conditions. For example, a patient may be asked to perform various range-of-motion exercises to restore function to an injured part of the body.

Physical therapists also may use heat, cold and electrical impulses to reduce pain and stimulate muscle function.

Physical therapy sessions frequently include some form of massage as well.

While athletes frequently rely on physical therapy as they recover from injuries, others can benefit from physical therapy as well. For example, physical therapy may work in conjunction with other treatments for cardiopulmonary disease.

The cardiopulmonary system delivers oxygen to active tissues, which plays an important part in movement.

When the cardiopulmonary system is compromised, muscles and other tissues may not function as they should, and certain exercises and mobility therapies may be needed. Physical therapists also aid in improving physical ailments related to neurological diseases, such as cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis,

spinal cord injuries, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. Physical therapists may also help treat poor vision, poor balance and paralysis.

Children who have learning disabilities related to a neurological or physical condition may benefit from certain forms of physical therapy. For example, vision problems can compromise academic performance, so physical therapy that aims to enhance visual tracking skills and strengthen the eyes in conjunction with corrective lenses may help youngsters, or even adult students, perform better in the classroom.

Very often physical therapy will be recommended by a general doctor or an orthopedic surgeon as part of recovery from a surgery or a condition. The therapist may work in conjunction with another doctor to provide a program that helps foster a faster and safe recovery.

Physical therapy tends to begin gradually and resistance is slowly built up as the body strengthens. The length of physical therapy will depend on the condition and the recommendation of the therapist and doctors overseeing the treatments.

Across the country, more than 50 million people are living with doctor-diagnosed arthritis. So says the Arthritis Foundation, which projects that figure will rise to 67 million by the year 2030.

Simply put, arthritis is a significant problem, one that can not only affect a person’s quality of life, but also his or her pocketbook, as the Arthritis Foundation notes that woking-age men and women (those between the ages of 18 and 64) who contend with arthritis are less likely to be employed than people of the same age who do not have arthritis.

Arthritis is not only bad for employees, but also for employers, as it accounts for $156 billion annually in lost wages and medical expenses.

Exercise may be the last thing on many arthritis sufferers’ minds, but exercise can play a vital role in reducing the often painful symptoms associated with arthritis. Among its other benefits, exercise can strengthen the muscles around arthritic joints and help men and women maintain bone strength. In addition, the Mayo Clinic notes that lack of exercise can make joints feel more painful and stiff, as a sedentary lifestyle will ultimately contribute to putting more stress on joints.

Upon being diagnosed with arthritis, patients should speak with their physicians about the best way to use exercise to combat and relieve their symptoms. Some patients may require physical therapy, while others might be able to work with their physicians to develop an exercise regimen that can help reduce the severity of their symptoms and any pain that accompanies those symptoms. The following are some types of exercises that figure to play a strong role in managing arthritis and improving quality of life.

• Aerobic exercises: Lowimpact aerobic exercises, such as walking and swimming, can help arthritis sufferers alleviate their symptoms and improve their overall health. Arthritis sufferers who have not exercised in awhile because of their pain may have gained weight as a result, and aerobic exercise is a great way to shed extra pounds.

Losing excess weight is a great way to make physical activity less taxing on your joints as well.

• Range-of-motion: Rangeof-motion exercises are typically simple and don’t take much time, but when done correctly, such exercises can be very effective at relieving the stiffness associated with arthritis. A physician or physical therapist might advise you to do range-of-motion exercises each day, and you may even need to do them a few times each day. Adhere to this advice, continuing to perform the exercises as long as your doctor or physical therapists deems them necessary.

• Strength training: As previously noted, arthritis sufferers may feel as though lifting weights will only exacerbate their existing symptoms. But strength training will strengthen the muscles around the joints, providing more support for those joints and ultimately reducing symptoms of pain.

Speak with your physician or physical therapist about appropriate strength-training activities and the importance of rest. If you experience any pain during strength-training sessions, stop immediately and report the pain to your physician.

U.N. science report warns of fewer bees, other pollinators

Leaping dogs take meaning of Leap Year to a whole new level LOS ANGELES — Shayna, a Labrador retriever in Holiday, Florida, had taken the same leap several times and had fun swimming. So she got a running start and sailed over the canal wall, only to learn it was low tide and she was going to end up on a bed of sharp oyster shells.

“She was cut up pretty bad,” said her owner, Judi Dunn. “I had to coach her to swim over to a dock where we had a floating doggy platform. She had to go about 70 feet,” Dunn said.

Shayna, who is now 6, looks at Dunn for permission before she takes off these days — everywhere except the family swimming pool.

In honor of Leap Year, The Associated Press looked at a few dogs that had taken big leaps and survived. Nationwide Insurance is the largest pet insurer in the United States with more than 550,000 covered animals and insures all four dogs.

Since last Leap Year, Feb. 29, 2012, there have been 107,502 claims submitted for soft tissue trauma, said Dr. Carol McConnell, Nationwide’s vice president and chief veterinarian medical officer. Cuts and bruises are the most common injury related to leaping accidents, she said.

Sprains come next, with 20,006 claims during the past four years for an average of $183 per pet; 46,386 back problems or slipped vertebral discs with claims averaging $1,133, and 6,335 broken legs averaging $1,792 a claim.

Paige Allford of San Diego, California, said her Lab, Henry, in his excitement, overshot a reunion with his neighbor and launched off a two-story balcony, landing on a car.

Despite the 20-foot fall, Henry’s injuries were limited to a broken toenail.

“Henry is a very popular neighborhood dog. One gal came to take him for a walk.

She was holding out her hands.

She thinks Henry is running to her, and he runs right past her into ‘Nowhereville.’ Luckily, he landed on a roof,” Allford said.

Eero (AIR’-oh), a Husky from Lawrence Township, New Jersey, was on the way to the dog park with owner Chelsea Brandt when the dog squeezed through a side window and tumbled out of the car.

He was 8 months old and about 65 pounds when that happened.

“Something caught my eye in the rear view mirror. I saw him fall out. There was a highpitched squeal from him. I slowed the car down. We were under 35 mph but there was another car behind me. When I pulled over, he was in the road, standing up. I scooped him up, put him in the back of the car and immediately called the vet,” she said.

There were no broken bones but a lot of skin lesions, she said. “It took him a few weeks to recover. He is a big, healthy 2-year-old now.”

Eero doesn’t do anything different these days, but Brandt does. “I definitely keep my distance if I see a whole dog hanging out the window. If it’s just a little of his head, I don’t worry about it that much.” She also keeps her windows rolled up tighter in her own car.

Heidi Elizabeth is a cocker Spaniel from Cumberland, Rhode Island, and was headed for the sofa in front of a second-story picture window where she always watches her owners when they leave the house. She misjudged her leap though and crashed through

The window screen hit Johnson on the head, but she wasn’t hurt. Heidi was a little sore but made a full recovery.

You would think there would have been more broken bones from all the leaps. But McConnell said bones are meant to be strong, and it takes involved trauma to break them. No matter what kind of dog you have, you should always watch for signs of pain, McConnell said.

WASHINGTON — Many species of wild bees, butterflies and other critters that pollinate plants are shrinking toward extinction, and the world needs to do something about it before our food supply suffers, a new United Nations scientific mega-report warns.

The 20,000 or so species of pollinators are key to hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of crops each year — from fruits and vegetables to coffee and chocolate. Yet 2 out of 5 species of invertebrate pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, are on the path toward extinction, said the first-of-its-kind report.

Pollinators with backbones, such as hummingbirds and bats, are only slightly better off, with 1 in 6 species facing extinction.

“We are in a period of decline, and there are going to be increasing consequences,” said report lead author Simon Potts, director of the Centre for Agri-Environmental Research at University of Reading in England.

And it’s not just honeybees. In some aspects they’re doing better than many of their wild counterparts, like the bumblebee, despite dramatic long-term declines in the United States and a mysterious disorder that has waned.

The trouble is the report can’t point to a single villain. Among the culprits: the way farming has changed so there’s not enough diversity and wild flowers for pollinators to use as food; pesticide use, including a controversial one, neonicotinoid, that attacks the nervous system; habitat loss to cities; disease, parasites and pathogens; and global warming.

The report is the result of more than two years of work by scientists around the globe who got together under several different U.N. agencies to come up with an assessment of Earth’s biodiversity, starting with the pollinators.

It’s an effort similar to what the United Nations has done with global warming, put-

ting together an encyclopedic report to tell world leaders what’s happening and give them options for what can be done.

The report, which draws from many scientific studies but no new research, was approved by a congress of 124 nations meeting in Kuala Lumpur on Friday.

“The variety and multiplicity of threats to pollinators and pollination generate risks to people and livelihoods,” the report stated.

“These risks are largely driven by changes in land cover and agricultural management systems, including pesticide use.”

But these are problems that can be fixed, and unlike global warming, the solutions don’t require countries to agree on global action — they can act locally, said Robert Watson, a top British ecological scientist and vice chairman of the scientific panel. The solutions offered mostly involve changing the way land and farming is managed.

“There are relatively simple, relatively inexpensive mechanisms for turning the trend around for native pollinators,” said David Inouye of University of Maryland, a co-author of a couple chapters in the report.

One of the biggest problems, especially in the United States, is that giant swaths of farmland are devoted to just one crop, and wildflowers are disappearing, Potts and others said.

Wild pollinators especially do well on grasslands, which are usually more than just grass, and 97 percent of Europe’s grasslands have disappeared since World War II, Potts said.

England now pays farmers to plant wildflowers for bees in hedge rows, Watson said.

There are both general and specific problems with some pesticide use, according to the report.

“Pesticides, particularly insecticides, have been demonstrated to have a broad range of lethal and sub-lethal effects on pollinators in controlled experimental conditions,” the report said.

But it noted more study is needed on the effects on pollinators in the wild.

COMMENTARY

Celebrating 88 years with Fats Domino

T

he weather is nice and sunny. And hope springs eternal as we prepare for the merciful end of the presidential primaries in South Carolina.

The Democratic Party Primary came and went on Saturday.

Good riddance. The Republican Primary has already vacated the premises of Hubert D. our state.

Osteen Jr. Watching most of the debates on national TV was like watching a horror movie, with Trump and Rubio screaming at each other and Hillary and Bernie Sanders taking turns playing the race card in pursuit of black votes. It makes one want to take a cold shower followed by drinking a quart of Old Skullpopper.

Enough already. Let’s write about people who make us smile. Such as Fats Domino.

On Saturday night ETV aired a wonderful documentary on Fats as the rock & roll-era icon turned 88. He still lives in New Orleans, where he was born with the name of Antoine Domino.

The “Fats” was added because he liked to eat and cook meals for his friends and large family. I grew up during the 50’s with the music of Fats and the other rock & roll members of the “Big Three”: Chuck Berry and Little Richard. I once saw one of their shows at the Township Auditorium in Columbia. It was an experience not forgotten.

Fats cut what historians

say was the first rock & roll record: The Fat Man in 1949.

That was the first of the 65 million records he sold, more than any fifties-era rocker with the exception of Elvis Presley. Fats was BIG during the fifties as he played boogie-woogie style on his piano with his own special touch along with his distinctive voice that exuded joy and fun. He was more than just a genial piano player — he rocked. His music can still be found online and is worth the price of admission. His newest release is “Fats Domino Greatest Hits, Walking to New Orleans,” 30 of his best such as “Blueberry Hill,” “The Fat Man,” ”Going to The River,” “Ain’t That a Shame,” “My Blue Heaven,” “I’m Walkin,” and on and on, all music described in one review as “amiable/good-natured, carefree, cheerful, happy.” That’s Fats.

Fats ran into some bad luck in 2005 when Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans and wiped out everything he owned, including his home. There were some reports he was killed by the hurricane, but that proved to be untrue. He later moved into a suburban New Orleans home and his daughter now takes care of him.

It’s probably time Fats slowed down. He doesn’t perform any more, but after 65 years, he’s entitled. One tribute I picked up on him went like this: “When you saw Fats Domino, to the last show, you could close your eyes and It would be like being in a joint in 1955. It was ageless.”

That’s the way his music and he remains: ageless.

‘He was more than just a genial piano player — he rocked..’

NOTABLE & QUOTABLE

Pothole Politics holding S.C. back

I

n a Saturday The Sumter Item story titled “Filibuster irks local senators,” we found our State Sen. Thomas McElveen in excellent quotable form. The story is about S.C. Senate Republicans holding up a long overdue state roads bill while blaming the Democrats.

They are fiddling while we the people are ruining our cars on lousy roads.

Even though McElveen is not on the finance committee, he said he feels attacked when he keeps hearing Sen. Tom Davis, R-Beaufort, blaming the Democrats for the bill that came out of the committee, which has a majority of Republicans. Davis has criticized the bill for not including a component to restructure the department of transportation.

“I feel like someone keeps flicking my ear,” Sen. McElveen said, adding that ““potholes don’t have any political persuasion.”

In Thursday’s edition we were pleased to learn from Tonyia McGirt of Sumter Police Department that an old friend is back on the job.

She writes, “After nearly 37 years in law enforcement more than 27 years with Sumter Police Department and nine years with Sumter County Sheriff’s Office Cpl. Cleveland Pinkney is again with the city helping patrol Sumter Opera House and the surrounding downtown area.” We’re glad to have a Sumter legend back on the street. Read it online at www.theitem.com: Born in Sumter, Pinkney’s desire to serve in law enforcement started while growing up in New York City.

“I was always amazed by the officers walking the beat,” he said, “I always had an interest from a very young age.”

He noted that tremendous advancements have also been made within the department and how it operates, not to mention the science and use of forensics in investigating cases.

“When I used to go fishing in my boat at the lake, we didn’t have those fancy cellphones we have today; we had beepers,” Pinkney said.

“When my beeper went off, and I saw chief’s number in it, I knew it was time to get back to the landing,” he said, noting there was usually a serious crime scene ahead that needed to be processed.

Today, Pinkney hopes to set an example for other police officers, encourage young people to enter law enforcement as a career and present a positive image of law enforcement •••

DON’T LET KIDS LOAF DURING THE SUMMER One of South Carolina’s greatest resources is the Governor’s School for Science and Mathematics in Hartsville. The summer program is great way for young people to engage in a variety of opportunities.

The South Carolina Governor’s School for Science & Mathematics is accepting applications for GoSciTech, a week-long, residential Science-Technology-Engineering-Math camp for eight-, ninth-, and 10-grade students on the school’s Hartsville campus.

GoSciTech provides opportunities for students to explore the endless possibilities of science and technology in an interactive, residential environment. The one-week camps are led by college, university and GSSM professors, along with other professionals in their respective fields.

For more information, visit http://www.scgssm. org/goscitech or call 803-2529152.

BUILDING LOCAL READERS ONE LAPTOP AT A TIME Also in technology news, The Sumter Item’s Konstantin Vengerowsky reported earlier this week that “Chromebooks engage students at High Hills Elementary School.” We feel sure they’re engaging with their local newspaper, and if not we’ll be happy to offer them a free online subscription.

Dozens of fourth-grade students at High Hills Elementary School have begun learning in a new way this year, using laptops, technology applications and programs in their classes.

Lindsay Pierce, a fourthgrade teacher, uses the laptops, called Google Chromebooks, for most of her les-

sons.

Currently, the school is equipped with 28 laptops, which teachers rotate throughout their classrooms, and six which Pierce uses permanently in her classroom.

Students are using various programs to follow along with the teacher in lessons and to complete quizzes, classroom projects and assignments.

“Using the Chromebooks has helped very much with the understanding of the things we cover,” said Cody Dickerson, a fourth-grade student. “Because everything is saved in the programs, we can access the material over and over and study it.”

Madison Skalko, also a fourth-grade student, said using the laptops has helped her to understand better how to research online and find the relevant websites students need to complete their projects.

“I really enjoy that we can all follow along with the lessons on the Chromebooks and stay on the same page,” Skalko said.

HOW ELSE CAN YOU EXPLAIN TRUMPISM? Finally this week, we can’t resist the bizarre theater that is our national politics. Peggy Noonan, writing in The Wall Street Journal, discusses “Trump and the Rise of the Unprotected: Why political professionals are struggling to make sense of the world they created.”

Last October I wrote of the five stages of Trump, based on the Kübler-Ross stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Most of the professionals I know are stuck somewhere between four and five.

But I keep thinking of how Donald Trump got to be the very likely Republican nominee. There are many answers and reasons, but my thoughts keep revolving around the idea of protection.

There are the protected and the unprotected. The protected make public policy.

The unprotected live in it.

The unprotected are starting to push back, powerfully.

ROADS

FROM PAGEA1 Sanders taking 337. Wilson received 19 votes and O’Malley received 3.

In Lee County, Clinton won with 87.7 percent of the votes, with Sanders receiving 11.4 percent. Out of a total of 2,581 county voters, 2,207 cast their ballot for Clinton, while 288 voted for Sanders. Wilson received 16 votes, and O’Malley received 7.

Statewide, as of 9:30 p.m., Clinton was winning with 73.6 percent with about 248,870 votes, compared to Sanders who received 25.8 percent, with about 87,260 votes.

Allen Bailey, chairman of the Sumter County Democratic Party, said the county’s voter turnout was lower than in 2008, when President Obama won the South Carolina primary.

“It was a bit of different energy this year,” Bailey said. “We had a lot more volunteers from the opposing candidates, however.”

Bailey said having both Clinton and Sanders stop in Sumter less than a week before the primary, may have boosted the numbers of voters who cast their ballots on Saturday.

Exit polls showed 6 in 10 voters in the South Carolina primary were black.

About 7 in 10 said they wanted the next president to continue Obama’s policies,

route, it will document the status of the roads prior to travel and monitor traffic activity.

The public works director may also recommend an alternative route.

Mixon said the county notifies the families living in neighborhoods where the trucks will travel so they will know when the traffic will occur and for how long.

The safety of residents using the same right of ways as the trucks is a major focus, he said.

The process also allows the county to establish the condition of the roads prior to the added traffic, he said.

“The last thing we want to do is accuse a company of damage they didn’t do,” Mixon said.

He said the county’s intention is to coordinate with companies, not prohibit travel on county roads.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

according to exit polls conducted by Edison Research for The Associated Press and television networks.

The Sumter Item interviewed voters Saturday afternoon at the Bates Middle School precinct. The precinct had a list of 747 registered voters. About 100 voters had cast their ballot as of 1:30 p.m.

Education and health care appeared to be two of the major issues concerning voters.

“We need more scholarships or ways for students from poor areas to be able to afford to go to school,” said Mary Moore, 71. “We do not need Donald Trump as president, it is hard enough for poor people to get by.”

Charles McGee said he graduated college in 1988 and is still paying off his school loans. He recently took out anoth-

er loan for a second degree he’s pursuing.

“We need to try to make sure we get the right person in the seat,” McGee said.

“There’s too much fussing among the candidates.”

Audrey Maple said health care was the major issue for her.

“It’s better than what it was, but it’s still not really affordable,” Maple said.

“We’re on the right path with President Obama, and I think we need to continue on that path with Hillary Clinton.”

Tyreak Choice, 18, was voting for the first time on Saturday. He said Bernie Sanders was his candidate of choice.

“I voted because I knew it was important to have a voice,” Choice said.

After 21-point lead collapses, Wilson leads late charge as Sumter forces OT, nips North Augusta 41-39 to advance to title game

Sumter High players celebrate after their 41-39 overtime victory over North Augusta on Saturday at Florence Civic Center in the 4A lower state finals. The Lady Gamecocks advance to face Spring Valley for the state title on Friday at 7 p.m. at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia.

BY JUSTIN DRIGGERS justin@theitem.com FLORENCE — The senior leadership that’s been the backbone for the Sumter High School girls’ 4A playoff run showed up when the Lady Gamecocks needed it most on Saturday at Florence Civic Center.

And that goes double for Kyra Wilson.

After watching an early 21-point lead evaporate, Sumter found itself down four to North Augusta with less than 40 seconds remaining and a shot at a state championship slowly slipping away.

Wilson sank two free throws, hit the game-tying layup with 9.9 seconds left and scored three of SHS’ four points in overtime -- including what turned out to be the game-winning basket as the Lady Gamecocks rallied to pull off a 41-39 victory.

Sumter, which improved to 25-4 on the season, advances to the 4A state title game against Spring Valley, a 57-39 winner over Rock Hill, on Friday at 7 p.m. at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia.

The Lady Gamecocks will be playing in their first state championship since the 1983-84 season and going for their first title since the 198283 season.

“We just kind of pulled together as a team (at the end),” Wilson said. “We knew we weren’t ready for our season to be over with, so we just dug down deep and found a way to win.”

Wilson finished with 15 points for SHS, none bigger than her last seven. Both of her layups came after driving the lane and the senior wing

STARKVILLE, Miss. — Gavin Ware had 16 points and 12 rebounds to lead Mississippi State to a 68-58 upset of South Carolina on Saturday.

It was Ware’s eighth doubledouble of the season and the Bulldogs (13-15, 6-10 SEC) have won four of their last six conference games. Quinndary Weatherspoon and Craig Sword had 14 points apiece for Mississippi State, while Fred Thomas added 12.

South Carolina (23-6, 10-6) was led by Sindarius Thornwell with 12 points. Duane Notice had 10 points and was the only other Gamecock in double digits. The Gamecocks shot just 36.7 percent for the game and had 21 turnovers. Leading scorer Michael Carrera, who entered at 14.8 points, was held to six on 1-of-8 shooting.

“That was a great effort for us and I thought it was our best effort of the year on all ends for 40 minutes,” said Mississippi State head coach Ben Howland. “And it was against a very good team, a very good team. I am really proud of our guys. Defensively, this was our best sustained effort for 40 minutes.”

Mississippi State had a season-high 13 steals and were paced by I.J. Ready with a career-best five. The Bulldogs shot 45.5 percent from the field and made 8 of 22 from 3-point territory.

“I.J. was very dominant on the defensive end pressuring the ball,” added Howland. “He had a run of about three steals in transition where he came in there and ripped it out of guys’ hands that were huge plays leading to baskets. We got transition baskets that came from great defense.”

South Carolina outrebounded the Bulldogs 39-34, including 16-10 on offensive boards.

But the Bulldogs outscored South Carolina 15-2 in fastbreak points and off the bench, 21-12.

“Ben (Howland) had done a great job with them,” said South Carolina head coach Frank Martin. “They fight and scrap and they’ve been in every game they’ve played this year. They beat us from the punch. We couldn’t run our offense today and couldn’t exe-

Sergio Garcia hits out of a bunker on the 18th hole during the third round of the Honda Classic in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., on Saturday.

Scott, Garcia tied at Honda after wild day PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — Adam Scott hit two balls into the water on one hole and still shot 66.

He still managed to share the lead Saturday with Sergio Garcia in the Honda Classic.

A bizarre, breezy afternoon at PGA National ended with Scott and Garcia (67) sharing a four-shot lead going into the final round. Garcia made birdie on the 18th hole to join Scott at 9-under 201.

Rickie Fowler had a one-shot lead after going the opening 36 holes without a bogey. On Saturday, he didn’t make a birdie and fell five shots behind with a 74.

the disappointment of losing the Sprint Cup pole, Kyle Busch claimed his first Xfinity Series victory at Atlanta Motor Speedway by holding off Kyle Larson on Saturday.

Busch and Larson pulled away from the field after the final yellow flag. Larson closed the gap to about a half-second in the closing laps, but the rally ended when he got caught up briefly behind the lapped car of Ryan Preece.

Busch crossed the line 0.466 seconds ahead of Larson, then did his customary burnout and bow in front of the main grandstand.

Thompson shoots 8-under 64

Nemechek wins Truck race

CHONBURI, Thailand — Lexi Thompson shot an 8-under 64 Saturday in the third round of the LPGA Thailand to establish a fourstroke lead over Korean In Gee Chun at Siam Country Club.

The fourth-ranked American fired nine birdies against a lone bogey on the 16th for an overall 16under 200.

“I missed a putt on the first hole which got me down a little bit, but I tried to stay positive going into the next hole and fire at pins like I did the first day,” said Thompson, who is chasing her seventh LPGA Tour career victory.

HAMPTON, Ga. — John Hunter Nemechek emerged from the carnage that took out the front runners to win the NASCAR Truck series race at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Saturday.

Nemechek, the son of longtime Cup driver Joe Nemechek, held off Cameron Hayley by 0.31 seconds to capture his second career Truck victory.

On a restart with two laps to go, the 18-year-old came through the trioval side by side with John Wes Townley. When Townley got loose, Nemechek pulled away to win for a team that lacks a major sponsor.

12th and finished 25th. Now, he’s taking over Stewart’s machine.

“It does take away a little bit of the sting from not running more of a schedule than I was hoping for this year in the Sprint Cup series,” he said. “Now that I have the opportunity, I can go out there and do what I want to do.”

Stewart made a surprise appearance in Atlanta, talking with Dillon after he took the 18th spot in qualifying.

For Dillon, this is a chance to spread his wings after spending his entire career racing for his grandfather or, in the case of the No. 95 car, a team allied with Richard Childress Racing.

“Everything is different for me,” Dillon said. “It’s helped me grow not just as a driver but as a person, and learning how to go about things different. I’m excited for what this brings.”

Here’s some other things to watch for in Sunday’s race: JIMMIE’S JAM: Keep an eye on six-time Cup champion Jimmie Johnson, who always seems to run up front in Atlanta. He won this race a year ago, his fourth career victory at the 1.54-mile trioval, to go along with 11 other top-10 finishes.

“Expectations are high,” said Johnson, who finished fifth at the Daytona 500. “This track, with the high tire wear and the bumpy conditions and the fact that you have to search around for (racing) lines, really suits my style.”

ELLIOTT HOMECOMING Rookie Chase Elliott will be looking for redemption at the track where he grew up.

After claiming the pole at Daytona in his first event since taking over the No. 24 car from Jeff Gordon, the son of Bill Elliott wrecked early in the race and settled for a 37th-place showing.

“Not wrecking on lap 20 would be a good start,” the 20-year-old said,

Kyle won the Xfinity race with a dominating performance, but that didn’t lessen his disappointment.

“This is Xfinity, that’s Cup,” Busch said. “But it is what it is. It’s not that big a deal.”

Porter-Gaud boys, Northwood girls win SCISA crowns

By EDDIE LITAKER Special to The Sumter Item Saturday’s SCISA 3A basketball state championship games held at Sumter County Civic Center involved the same two teams, with the roles reversed in each game and the higher seed winning both by nearly identical scores.

In the boys game, it was Porter-Gaud coming in as the Lower No. 1 seed against the Upper No.3 seed Northwood Academy. The girls matchup saw upper No.1 Northwood pitted against Lower No. 3 Porter-Gaud.

Porter-Gaud dominated from the start in the boys game, stretching its lead each quarter before coasting in with a 70-38 victory.

While closing out a 25-3 season, the Cyclones placed four players in double figures, led

by Josiah James with 14. Eric Jackson and Aaron Nesmith both scored 13 while Michael Barry ended with 12.

Devin Ramsey topped the Chargers, who finished 22-11, with 14 points.

The inevitable happened in the SCISA 3A girls basketball championship game as Northwood put the exclamation point on a dominant season with a 70-42 win over PorterGaud.

The Lady Chargers, who held the Lower No. 1 seed entering the playoffs, defeated No. 5 Ben Lippen 72-37 and No. 2 seed Pinewood Prep 68-21 to earn their spot in the title game. In a 27-3 campaign, all but two of Northwood’s wins on the season came by double digits, including 14 by at least 46 points and 20 by at least 28.

Dee Heath scored 18, including hitting three 3-point shots, to lead the Lady Chargers, with Katelyn Powell adding 17 and Angel Middleton 13.

Maggie Cochrane closed with 11 to top the Lady Cyclones, who ended with an 18-13 record.

2A Boys Spartanburg Day 80 Bethesda 57 In a rematch of last year’s SCISA 2A boys basketball state championship game, it was Spartanburg Day School turning the tables on last year’s champion, Bethesda Academy, to record an 80-57 win.

The Griffins scored the game’s first nine points before the Blazers pulled back within four, 19-15, early in the second quarter. SDS went on a 20-4 run before Bethesda scored the half’s final four points. The Blazers pulled within 11 on two occasions in the second half, but would draw no closer.

Zion Williamson scored 33 , followed by Kyle Tracy with 14, Magic Moody with 13 and Ta’Lon Cooper with 10 for the Griffins, who finished 25-2.

Kearston Berksteiner topped the Blazers, who closed at 23-8, with 23. Avery Joyner added 13 and Zack Askew chipped in 10.

SCA answered PDA’s early run with a 9-0 run of its own and stayed close throughout before finally overtaking the Lady Golden Eagles in the final minute and holding on for the win.

player was a perfect 11-for-11 from the charity stripe.

The Lady Yellow Jackets managed just two free throws in the overtime period as Sumter outscored them 4-2 despite Wilson fouling out after making her final free shot of the night.

“I was trying to penetrate and then kick it out to the open man,” Wilson said of her clutch layups. “I was trying to draw everyone in, but they always gave me the lane.

I guess they forgot I was lefthanded. Fortunately the shots fell.

“And going 11-for-11 from the line? I’m never going to let coach L hear the end of that one.”

Jason Loudenslager probably won’t tire of it for a while either. Wilson was part of an initial charge that found SHS leading 23-4 after the first quarter. Wilson and Cy Cooper had six points each, D’Erika Hamilton added four and Sumter’s pressure defense had North Augusta searching for answers.

Unfortunately it was the Lady Gamecocks who needed answers for the majority of the next 24 minutes.

Sumter scored just seven points across the second and third quarters -- including two in the third stanza -- and watched the Lady Yellow Jackets chip away until they finally grabbed their first lead, 3130, with 6:35 to play in the fourth.

“Part of it was, ‘Hey, we’re up by 20, we’re going to blow these guys out and have fun,’” Loudenslager said.

“But you have to play like it’s 0-0 regardless of the score. Then as it started to tighten up a little bit, the nerves kicked in. We played seven kids in the first quarter and we felt like all of them belonged and were making plays. By the end. we felt like we had only three out there that really wanted it and that’s the biggest thing we’ve got to fix next week.”

North Augusta battled back behind Amari Young, who scored all 18 of her points from the second quarter on. Mya Burns added 10 and Kiara Jackson had six, including the basket that gave NA its first lead of the game and another that put them up 37-33 with just over a minute remaining.

But even with NA finding their scoring touch, Loudenslager didn’t see any big drop off in the Sumter defense.

“I thought we did a great job defensively the whole game with just a couple minor mistakes here and there,” he said. “Our biggest issue was after they scored, we did something silly with the ball like turn it over and give it to them for an easy layup.”

North Augusta made a slight adjustment on defense, switching to a 1-2-2 halfcourt zone after the first period, but Sumter just didn’t adjust to it, Loudenslager said.

“It’s the same kind of defense we saw against Irmo and we went stagnant

They slowed the tempo down and we fed right into it.

“We had some ball reversals on the other side of the floor where we had 3-on-2, but we weren’t trying to attack it like in the first quarter.”

North Augusta had four turnovers, missed two free throws and three shots -- including a potential gamewinning 3-pointer -- in the final 40 seconds of regulation and the overtime period.

Playing with a starting lineup of mostly underclassmen, Loudenslager said Sumter’s senior leadership was the big difference down the stretch. Aside from Wilson, Cooper and Jessica Harris added seven points each while Wilson finished with six steals.

“We knew entering the season we were going to go as far as those seniors took us,” he said. “We’ve got one more game to go -- in Columbia.”

Curry has 51, sets record for hitting threes

By FRED GOODALL The Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. — Stephen Curry’s smile gave way to laughter.

The reigning MVP received an inbounds pass following a free throw, took a couple of dribbles past midcourt before launching a 44-foot shot that banked in at the buzzer.

The crowd rose to its feet, Curry lifted his arms and struck a pose before chuckling his way to the Golden State bench.

“I was laughing, sure. That really isn’t supposed to happen,” Curry said Thursday night after making 10 3-pointers and scoring 51 points in a 130-114 victory over the Orlando Magic.

“I made a bunch of 3s in the third quarter and then finished with that one,” he added. “It was really funny to me, it just banked off the glass.”

A night after scoring 42 in a six-point victory at Miami, Curry made 20 of 27 shots, including 10 of 15 3-pointers.

The Warriors pulled away in the closing minutes of the third quarter, with his bank shot putting the defending NBA champions up 99-91.

“Are you guys surprised?”

Magic guard Evan Fournier asked reporters. “I’m not. It’s just what he does.”

Curry topped 50 points for the third time this season, the first player to do it that many

times since LeBron James and Dwyane Wade in 2008-09.

That wasn’t his only highlight of the night.

Curry surpassed Kyle Korver’s mark of 127 straight games with a 3, which he tied while making six 3s at Miami on Wednesday night.

“I don’t know that the record is that significant because it’s so simple for him. His 3-point shot is like a 2-point shot. It’s what he does,” Golden State coach Steve Kerr said. “It’s to the point where we expect a half-court shot. ... It’s a rhythm shot, and it just went in.”

Including the postseason, Curry has made 3s in 149 straight games, also a record.

“I have a hard time seeing how that streak is ever going to end. It would have to be kind of a fluke night,” Orlando coach Scott Skiles said.

“The way he makes them is totally different from Kyle,” Skiles added. “Kyle is sprinting off screens and it’s possible you could switch out and maybe take some away from him, whereas Steph, there are so many of them off the dribble and from 30 feet and fading away. ... He’d just have to be off that night, and that cerTHE ASSSOCIATED PRESS tainly doesn’t happen very Golden State guard Stephen Curry reacts after sinking a 3-pointer to often.” set the record for most consecutive regular-season games with a The Warriors improved to 3-point basket at 128 games on Thursday against Orlando.

the Warriors weathered a quiet night from backcourt mate Klay Thompson, who had nine points on 4-of-10 shooting.

“It’s no secret what’s he’s going to do. He did to us what he’s been doing to everybody else,” said Orlando’s Victor Oladipo, who had 14 points.

“It’s no surprise. ... At the end of day, whatever we wanted to do with him, didn’t work.”

Skiles agreed.

“This was Steph’s night. He tricked us so many times. He runs. He stops. He relaxes, causes you to relax, and then he’s gone,” the Magic coach said. “That happened at least a dozen times.”

Mykhailiuk hit five 3-pointers and didn’t miss a shot until the final minute, helping the Jayhawks (25-4, 13-3) extend one of the most remarkable streaks in major college basketball.

The only school to win more consecutive conference championships was UCLA, which won 13 in a row during the 1960s and ‘70s. The Jayhawks can win their eighth outright title during their streak with a win Monday night at No. 25 Texas.

pro football

Some draft hopefuls have more to prove off the field at combine

By MICHAEL MAROT The Associated Press

The Associated Press

South Carolina tight end Jerell Adams makes a catch as he runs a drill at the NFL combine on Saturday in Indianapolis. Adams, the former Scott’s Branch High School standout, posted the best time among tight ends in the 40-yard dash at 4.64 seconds.

INDIANAPOLIS — Duke Williams had something to prove this week in Indianapolis — that he has learned his lesson.

It’s a job that will continue long after he leaves town.

Four months after being booted off the Auburn football team for allegedly hitting several people including a teammate during a fight, the humbled Williams was trying to take advantage of his invite to NFL’s annual scouting combine by persuading someone, anyone, to give him a second chance.

“If I didn’t get in any trouble, I know I’m a legit firstround pick,” Williams said earlier this week. “I’m a firstround pick no matter what, but off the field I’m a seventhround pick. My character is a seventh-round pick.”

There’s little doubt Williams has some NFL traits.

becoming a franchise quarterback, though, Manziel wound up in rehab and has had a rash of off-the-field problems.

He is expected to be cut soon.

One thing that has become almost standard fare for team officials is asking players with checkered pasts how they’ve changed.

Williams said he sought counseling.

Michigan offensive lineman Graham Glasgow, who was arrested for drunken driving in 2014 and tested positive for alcohol a year later while still on probation, said he stopped drinking beer.

TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin explained he’s surrounding himself with better people after allegedly hitting an officer outside a bar last January.

“I told them (the teams) the truth,” Boykin said Saturday.

“I told them exactly what happened from every detail. Either they accept it or they don’t, I mean I’m truly remorseful for what happened.”

liams is a potential mismatch against smaller cornerbacks even though he ran a 4.72-second 40-yard dash Saturday.

But in Williams’ case, and dozens of others, character could outweigh numbers.

“The people that we or the public deems are busts in the league, 90 percent has to do with what goes on above the neck,” said Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht, who took Jameis Winston with last year’s No. 1 pick. “Whether it is a character issue or a mental issue, we put a lot of resources into that to find out about a player.

You can’t gauge that from watching them run around out there and do drills. It’s mostly when you talk to them face to face.”

Regardless of how much research is done, though, decision-makers don’t always get it right.

Cleveland gambled two years ago by using a firstround pick on the flamboyant Johnny Manziel. Instead of

Sumter Volunteers inducts

Women of Honor 3 recognized for contributions to community

BY IVY MOORE ivy@theitem.com

S

umter Volunteers Inc. has announced the 2016 class of the Women’s Honor Roll of Sumter

County. In celebration of National Women’s History Month, the organization will add Sumterites Joni Mabry Brown, the late Martha McElveen Horne and Michelle Logan-Owens to the roll for their outstanding contribu-

tions to the community.

MARTHA McELVEEN HORNE

L. MICHELLE LOGAN-OWENS

Jo Anne Morris, executive director of Sumter Volunteers, said the public is invited to a 3 p.m. induction ceremony and reception for the honorees on Tuesday, March 1, the first day of Women’s History Month, at Swan Lake Visitors Center. The date also marks the 24th year of the Women of Honor program and the 40th anniversary of Sumter Volunteers.

It was only 39 years ago that the national celebration of Women’s History Month began as Women’s History Week, an educational project intended solely for schools in Sonoma County, California.

Congress passed a resolution making National Women’s History Week official in 1981.

Six years later, the recognition of women’s contributions to history had grown so much that Congress expanded the celebration to a month.

The month has been observed in Sumter since 1991 under the leadership of the YWCA of the Upper Lowlands. In 1993, Sumter Volunteers established The Women’s Honor Roll of Sumter County to recognize women who have made outstanding contributions to the area’s culture and history. Initially, 20 women were honored posthumously, and Lady Banksiae roses were planted in their honor on the pergola in Volunteer Park, located originally at the corner of North Magnolia and East Calhoun streets.

Since the first observance, 88 additional women have been honored and a permanent rose planting installed on the east and west sides of the Sumter Civic Center on West Liberty Street. Morris said these roses serve as living monuments to all the honorees.

In addition, all honorees’ names are listed on the Honor Roll of Outstanding Women of Sumter County, a plaque that hangs in the foyer of Patriot Hall in the Sumter County Cultural Center on Haynsworth Street.

Names are added to the list only during Women’s History Month.

In the year 2000, Sumter Volunteers combined the tradition with a Bicentennial Salute to Women of Sumter. For the first time, four outstanding women’s organizations were added to the Honor Roll along with two famous women from Sumter’s past, Natalie Delage Sumter (Mrs. Thomas Sumter Jr.) and Angelica Singleton Van Buren, President Martin Van Buren’s daughter-in-law, who acted as White House hostess during his term, 1837-1841.

With the addition of this year’s honorees the honor roll will number 111, Morris said.

The public is invited to attend the recognition ceremony and reception for the 2016 Sumter Volunteers Women of Honor. For more information about Sumter Volunteers,

Inc., the Women’s Honor Roll of Sumter County or Tuesday afternoon’s ceremony and reception, call Morris at (803) 775-7423.

On Friday, St. Francis students invited the seventh- and eighth-graders from St. Anne Catholic School to shadow the high school students for the day.

Principal Raymond Reinsant told the students this was one of the best Spirit and Catholic Schools Week that he has witnessed.

Wilson Hall 3 NATIONAL MERIT FINALISTS Seniors Brayden Fidler, Anna Lyles and Duncan Rupe have been selected as National Merit Scholarship Finalists.

They represent less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors. As three of the approximately 15,000 graduating seniors in the nation to receive this high honor, they are eligible to receive a National Merit Scholarship or a corporate-sponsored or college-sponsored merit scholarship. Finalists are selected based on their test scores, academic record, course work, school recommendation, extracurricular activities and leadership and student essay.

NEW ROBOTICS CLUB With a grant from Westinghouse Electric Co. and a gift from the Wilson Hall PTO, a new robotics club has been established for middle school students to enhance their skills in science, technology, engineering and math. The club will use the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 program and robotics kits, software and curriculum. During a nine-week course, the members of the club will learn to construct and program a robot with various movements and tasks to complete an obstacle course challenge. The club plans to sponsor a team to compete in the South Carolina FIRST LEGO League competition. Jason Bartlett, a parent volunteer and an engineer with Westinghouse, worked with the school to secure the grant and develop the curriculum. Ryan Howard, a parent volunteer and an engineer with Caterpillar, helped secure engineers through Caterpillar’s STEM outreach program to volunteer to help teach and mentor the club members. Jeanna Mahr, a member of the PTO, is the adviser and organizer of the club. — Sean Hoskins

Sumter School District BLACK HISTORY MONTH PROGRAMS February is Black History Month, and Sumter School District schools had numerous programs to commemorate the month.

University of South Carolina Sumter COMICS CREATORS TO VISIT USC Sumter is delighted to be hosting comics creators Erica Henderson and Kyle Starks this Friday for vibrant conversation about their experiences in the business: from self-publishing to working with some of the biggest names in the industry.

Erica Henderson is a critically acclaimed artist who is working on New York Times Bestseller “The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl” with writer Ryan North for Marvel Comics, as well as the ongoing series Jughead with writer Chip Zdarsky for Archie Comics. She has also collaborated with Sumter’s own local comic book writer, Chris Sims, on Subatomic Party Girls for Monkeybrain Comics.

Kyle Starks is the creator of Sexcastle, a loving tribute to ’80s action movies in graphic novel form. Originally selfpublished through a highly successful Kickstarter campaign, Sexcastle was picked up for wide release by Image Comics, and was recently optioned for a movie by the minds behind Captain America: Winter Soldier and Comedy Central’s Workaholics.

Moderated by Dr. Andrew Kunka, professor of English at USC Sumter, this event is held in conjunction with the Sumter Comic Arts Symposium with help from the Sumter County Cultural Commission. The talk starts at 2 p.m. on Friday. This event is free and open to the public.

SCHOLARS PROGRAM IN 10TH YEAR The USC Sumter Scholars Program has entered its 10th year of aiding students with tuition costs. First started in 2006, the tuition waiver program is open to students in Sumter, Clarendon, Lee, Kershaw and Williamsburg counties.

Students must achieve at least a 3.0 GPA and be in the top 15 percent of their graduating class to be eligible.

Officials are quick to correct any description of the program as a “scholar-

ship,” because no money is given by USC Sumter to the student. Instead, the program waives any and all tuition fees that are not covered by outside scholarships or other financial awards. The program is USC Sumter specific, nontransferable to another USC or Palmetto College school, and lasts for two years. — AC Sullivan

Lee County School District BISHOPVILLE PRIMARY SCHOOL Students in second and third grades represented Bishopville Primary School at the Lee County School District Spelling Bee on Feb. 11. Amil Cooper, a thirdgrader, placed third for the district in the second- through fifth-grade competition. BPS was well represented by thirdgraders Amil Cooper, Dayanna LinsterReed and Janiya Gillard and secondgraders Shadrach Williams, Allan Rogers and Taariq Rush.

To reward positive behavior, the school launched a “Love My Behavior” Challenge for students. Students were challenged to earn a green or better on their daily behavior chart for eight consecutive days in order to receive an invitation to the celebration. Nearly 250 students earned the invitation to the cupcake and cookie decorating party.

BISHOPVILLE PRIMARY SCHOOL ANNEX Students at Bishopville Primary recently sold World’s Finest Chocolate.

Students who sold $25 worth were able to create their own sundae. Students who sold $50 created their own sundae and received a treat from Get Down Pound. Students who sold $75 worth created their own sundae, received a treat from Get Down Pound and received attitude glasses from the World’s Finest Chocolate representative. Students who sold $150 or more created their own sundae, received a treat from Get Down Pound, received attitude glasses and rode in a limousine to Zaxby’s in Bishopville for lunch.

LOWER LEE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Teriann Nash and her fifth-grade students created a Voices of Freedom Quilt. Each student chose a famous quote and wrote the quote and illustration on a white card. These cards were used to create the quilt which is on display on the main hallway at Lower Lee by the nurse’s office.

WEST LEE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL In Notoya Whyte’s class, students were asked to sit opposite a partner at a table with a notebook propped up between the two. One partner was “the builder,” who used blocks to make a building, and the other was “the copier,” who was unable to see the building.

The builder had to tell the copier how to make the same building and make a list of the words he or she used to give the directions. Afterward, each student drew his or her conclusions with the use of guided questions. — Kara Fowler

Historical Commission erects

MARKERS T his issue of Reflec-

tions, using informa-

tion and photos from

The Sumter Item archives and the South Carolina

Highway Historical Marker Guide, looks back at the creation of the Sumter County Historical Commission and the important work begun by this group of dedicated people, united in their efforts to preserve and share information pertaining to sites and individuals important in Sumter’s history. This organization follows a directive which began in 1905 when the South Carolina General Assembly “passed an act creating the Historical Commission of South Carolina.”

This act enabled the commission “to have the direction and control of the marking of historic sites, or houses, or localities.” The newly created South Carolina Department of Archives and History was given the responsibility to “approve the inscriptions for all historical markers or other monuments erected on state Sammy Way highways or REFLECTIONS other state property.”

Today’s historical markers program dates from the 1930s rather than from 1905, with the first recorded marker is located at Long Canes Massacre Hospital near Troy, placed there in 1936.

The styles of the cast aluminum markers have changed through the years, as is evident by the changing crowns placed atop the markers. Dur-

Three members of the Sumter County Historical Commission examine the marker recently erected by the organization on the north side of S.C. Highway 763 between the Iris Gardens and Second Mill at the site of Bradford’s Chapel or Green Swamp Methodist Church. Others soon to follow will be at Salem (Black River) Presbyterian Church near Mayesville and High Hills Baptist Church near Stateburg. From left are Thomas M. Stubbs, commission chairman, Mrs. LeRoy S. Davis and C.D. Cooper Jr. TOP RIGHT: The first of a series of markers designating points of historical significance in Sumter County was erected recently at the site of the now extinct town of Manchester between Sumter and Wedgefield. The marker was put up by the Sumter County Historical Commission comprising T.M. Stubbs, H.G. Osteen, Mrs. LeRoy Davis, C.D. Cooper Jr. and Miss Margaret L. Brunson. The marker is on the left side of the road leading to the site within Manchester State Forest. ing the 1930s and ’50s, “the historic markers were crowned with an encircled palmetto tree, painted silver and carried black lettering; from 1955 until 1990, they were crowned with a triangular crest, containing a bas relief of the state flag, and painted dark blue, and carried silver lettering. Today the flag of the ’50s still crowns

new markers, but they are painted silver and carry black letters like the markers of the ’30s, and they are coded with an alphanumeric designation by county.”

THE SUMTER COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION: EARLY HISTORY “The Sumter County Historical Commission was authorized by the General Assembly in 1949 and provided for five members, one each to be selected by the following organizations: The Dick Anderson Chapter, U.D.C., (Miss Margaret Brunson), Sumter Chapter U.D.C. (Mrs. Leroy Davis) Sumter Chapter D.A.R. (C.D. Cooper Jr.), Trustees of the Sumter Public Library, (H.G. Osteen), County Board of Commissioners, (T.M. Stubbs).

For three years $500 per annum was provided to carry out its objectives.”

The group usually met at the Court House to “delegate research among the members, and to make decisions.” They decided that the first project should focus on the lost town of Manchester. The cast iron marker to be erected there was of standard design and would be placed on a selected site in January of 1950. The second marker was to be erected

within the city limits and marked the site of the old Sumterville Academy, which stood in an oak grove near the spot where Washington School once stood. Future markers in progress during that time were: “one to mark the site and give the history of the old Brick, or Salem Black River Presbyterian Church; a second for High Hills Baptist Church; and another at the site of Bradford’s Meeting House, or Green Swamp Methodist Church.”

The commission encountered numerous problems including obtaining sufficient historical data for use on the markers and composing the wording of the legend that conformed to the 60-word limit while including a fairly complete story using salient facts.

All wording on markers are approved by the South Carolina State Department of History and Archives.

Another point of concern involved obtaining permission from the State Highway

Department to place the markers in the right-of-way along Sumter’s roads.

The establishment of such a group could also do much to put a stop to the outflow of valuable local documents into other communities, “so that the citizens of Sumter might have at hand the answers to their questions on the history of their city and county. Many citizens expressed a willingness and even eagerness to donate such items provided they are made safe and are properly cared for.”

Today the Sumter County Historical Commission continues to work closely with the South Carolina Department of Archives and History, having established a working arrangement or routine, which allows the local commission to identify historic sites and individuals, thus being more capable of preserving and telling our community’s story.

The cruise ship Oasis of the Seas is docked at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in November 2009. The Oasis of the Seas crew has 10 hours to unload and restock the floating city with a week’s worth of food and supplies.

How many hot dogs are consumed on a cruise ship? More than 10K

BY SCOTT MAYEROWITZ AP Business Writer FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — It’s still dark out at this industrial port. Most passengers aboard the Oasis of the Seas are sound asleep in their staterooms.

But below deck the crew of one of the world’s largest cruise ship is preparing to turn the vessel around. They have just ended a week-long voyage taking 6,222 people throughout the Caribbean. In just hours, another 6,114 will start their vacations.

Suitcases need to be unloaded and loaded. Piles of trash and recycling are removed, and an entire week’s worth of food for the passengers — and 2,193 crew members — needs to be loaded onboard.

The clock is ticking. There are just 10 hours to essentially empty and restock a small town.

If that weren’t enough, housekeeping needs to turn over 2,700 staterooms for the new guests.

“I’m amazed every single time you do it,” says Raimund Gschaider, associate vice president for hotel operations at Royal Caribbean International. “It’s an orchestration of all different operations. Everything needs to be fine-tuned down to the last minute.”

By 6:30 a.m., the first of 25 trucks are lined up on the dock, ready to unload their goods.

The Oasis and its sister ships — the Allure of the Seas and the soon-to-sail Harmony of the Seas — are the three

HOW MANY WHAT? Here’s a look at some of the items on one sailing: • Lobster tails: 5,400 • Ice cream cones: 21,000 • Tomatoes: 8,800 pounds • Lettuce: 9,000 pounds • Potatoes: 14,800 pounds • Apples: 2,600 pounds • Bananas: 5,400 pounds • Eggs: 46,800 • Milk: 2,622 gallons

largest passenger ships in the world.

While many passengers remember the zipline, the onboard surfing machine or the 25 different dining establishments, it’s really what happens below desk that amazes.

• Chicken: 19,723 pounds • Beef: 18,314 pounds • Fish: 7,070 pounds • Hot dogs: 10,680 • Beer: 31,900 bottles and 900 cans • Soda: 16,900 cans • Vodka: 820 bottles • Whiskey: 179 bottles • Scotch: 293 bottles • Rum: 765 bottles • White wine: 3,360 bottles • Red wine: 2,776 bottles

When the Oasis leaves for a week-long voyage to the Caribbean, it takes everything needed. The islands visited don’t have the quantity — or the quality — of supplies to meet the needs of the ship, Gschaider says.

“In a hotel, you get your supplies on a daily basis.

You’re never tied into a limited timeframe,” he adds. “For us, we only have one go at it.”

That means when the ship pulls away from the dock in Florida, it must have 10,272 new rolls of toilet paper, 7,397 pounds of cheese and 330 cases of pineapples onboard.

Not to mention 1,000 new lightbulbs, 30 replacement TVs, 1,899 pounds of coffee and 23 gallons of hand sanitizer. Every week.

With special tax suspended, medical device firms reap big savings Now that a special tax on medical devices has been suspended, some companies are saying they can hire more workers.

BY MARK ZDECHLIK Minnesota Public Radio U.S. manufacturers of medical devices started 2016 with a windfall — a two-year suspension of a controversial tax on their revenue.

Medical devices include a wide range of products and machines used in medical care, such as tongue depressors, endoscopes and MRI scanners, for example. Manufacturers said the tax on devices hurt their business.

The Congressional Research Service estimates companies paid out $2.4 billion in 2014.

“When this tax went into place, it forced us to make cuts and sustain those cuts,” said George Montague, chief financial officer of Minnesotabased Smiths Medical. His firm takes in more than $1 billion a year for its specialty medical products.

Smiths Medical had paid $10 million a year in medical device taxes, Montague said, “and so now we’re getting that funding back.” He insisted the money will go into building the business.

“We’re making significant investment in our product portfolio — in improving our product portfolio,” Montague said. “And what this enables us to do is accelerate some of that investment.”

The medical technology industry has branded the device tax a job-killer,

though that claim has been disputed.

Montague said Smiths Medical will now be adding new jobs, but he doesn’t know how many.

Minnesota is home to a concentration of device makers, and U.S. Rep. Erik Paulsen, R-Minn., is a leading opponent of the tax. He said suspending it for two years could provide a major boost to Minnesota’s economy.

“There are estimates that because of Minnesota’s high concentration in this sector — essentially the largest in the world in a concentrated environment — that Minnesota would be paying 25 percent of the tax,” Paulsen said. “That’s a big deal to our economy.”

Bob Paulson is CEO of NxThera, a small firm in Minnesota that makes devices involved in the treatment of urological conditions. His company had only been paying the device tax

since November, he said, when NxThera started selling products in the United States. The tax made it harder to find financing, he said, because investors balked at putting their money into an industry that’s been singled out to pay a tax. Thanks to the tax hiatus, he said, he now plans to enlarge his staff of 43 researchers and sales people.

“It absolutely means additional money that we can invest in both of those areas,” he said.

Still, some industry analysts questioned whether suspending the tax will significantly boost the number of jobs created.

The Congressional Research Service concluded the tax was having fairly minor effects on employment, changing payrolls by no more than twotenths of 1 percent. Still, the same report called the tax difficult to justify

and noted that such excise taxes are typically put in place to discourage a particular behavior, such as smoking.

Jason McGorman, a senior analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence, said the suspension won’t really change what big companies are doing, but will help their bottom lines. Big, publicly traded firms also might return the money to shareholders by buying up their own shares, he said.

“Smaller companies felt a bigger tax bite than the giants, so they are more likely to put the tax savings back into the business,” McGorman said.

Industry analyst Brooks West, of Piper Jaffray, said device makers would be smart to reinvest the windfall.

“Politically, they better spend this money on R-and-D,” West said, “or the government can look at this and say, you know, ‘Look, if you just pass this on to the shareholders, we’re going to reimpose the tax.’ ” But Rep. Paulsen said he doubts the tax will return. He’s optimistic the two-year tax suspension will become a permanent repeal.

Turkey hunt turns up treasures Cobia fishery may get protection

T

he streets of Sumter are practically deserted at 4:30 a.m. on a weekend, and it’s an eerie feeling passing under the glow of street lights and navigating the quiet intersections, with almost no signs of life about.

I stopped at a convenience store south of town to get gas and call my brother Matt. I’ve learned to call him when I’m on the way, instead of waking him and waiting for him to get dressed after I get there.

When I pulled up in his yard in Dan Paxville and Geddings blew the horn — OUTDOORS nothing. I waited five or six minutes and was about to get out and go knock on his door when he came hobbling out walking kind of funny. When he got to the truck I saw the reason for the funny walk. He was wearing bedroom slippers. I pointed out that snakes wouldn’t be a problem today, but the mud and cold water of a Lowcountry swamp might be a little uncomfortable in slippers. He mumbled that he had forgot to change into boots and ambled back to the house. I only had to wait nine or 10 more minutes and we were on our way.

We only saw one other car on the road, on the way to Summerton to pick up my son Clayton. I guess most sane people are home sleeping at this hour on a Saturday morning. But, turkey hunters are not necessarily sane people.

At Summerton, we got on Interstate 95 and headed south to the Edisto. Looking up and out of the truck windows, we could see stars twinkling in the cold black sky.

Turkeys will gobble best on a cold clear day. We should hear something this morning.

We had to stop and open the main gate to the club — which meant that no one else was there.

Good. We had the place all to ourselves.

We took the road to Log Jam. Clayton and I had seen four longbeards in our corn piles there back during deer season. Maybe they would feel like announcing their claim to this part of the

We went back out the main gate and down the highway to the Georgia Pacific tract. I let Matt out at the gate. He would walk the sandy road on into the property to listen. I headed back down the highway and turned onto a dirt track that skirted a big fallow field. When I stopped at the back of the field and got out of the truck I noticed the time — 6:30. I knew that it was time — gobble time.

As I walked away from the truck, I thought that I heard something and stopped. I didn’t really need to go very far anyway.

I was in turkey country. There it was again! A gobbler sounding off back in the big piney woods.

There’s almost nothing that thrills my heart so much to hear, as a tom turkey saluting the dawn in the wild woods.

But I didn’t listen long before heading back to the truck. I drove back out to the highway and turned into Horseshoe Road. If I hurried, I would have time to listen at another section of timber. I stopped about halfway around the horseshoe and got out. There was a turkey gobbling across a big cotton field on the next property over. I listened for a little while and realized there were actually two gobblers over there.

FISHING REPORTS The following information is provided courtesy www.

SCFishingReport.com. Check the site for recent updates and detailed reports. DHEC Fish Consumption Advisories: www.scdhec.gov/ environment/water/fish.

Freshwater Report Santee Cooper System Not a great time to be on the lakes with the high inflow, muddy conditions and cold temps. Slow reports for crappie, catfish and bass.Midlands area Lake Wateree Crappie: Improving. Once the water settles down, the crappie bite should be on since fish haven’t had a good opportunity to feed recently. While the river run is a traditional place to fish at this time of year, with so much current coming down the lake it will be a while before anglers can keep bait down there and so the first place be looking in the creeks. Expect Beaver Creek to clear early, and with dropping water temperatures the bite should get right there first. Fish in 6-9 feet of water, and tight-lining (pushing) will be the name of the game. Fish Stalker 2-inch Slab Tail Jigs in Ugly Green, Yellow and Orange colors will be good as they are highvisibility.

Lake Greenwood Bass: Fair to good. Muddy water can often kill a winter bite. Fish can be caught around laydowns, but the best fishing has been around rocky banks and other hard cover such as boat ramps.

The best shallow areas have been in the back of creeks and coves, probably because of annual bait migration patterns that still have the bait in the creeks. As would be expected in the muddy conditions, big white and chartreuse spinnerbaits are fishing well.

Jigs and crankbaits in highly visible colors such as chartreuse and black backs, or red, are also working well. The cold front might push fish a bit deeper,

but with conditions still so muddy he doesn’t expect fish to go very deep. They might move onto slightly deeper docks but should probably stay in the same area.

Lake Monticello Catfish: Good. Anchoring on main lake humps and points with steep ledges is most effective for putting big blue catfish in the boat; being patient and staying in one spot for a while can really pay off. Cut gizzard shad, big threadfin shad, and white perch seem to be the best baits.

Lake Murray Crappie: Slow. Some results reported by tightlining. Go shallower in the afternoon when the water warms up.

Some can be found on deep brush around 20 feet. Use jigs or minnows very slow. Fish can be hard to find in deep water, so look at the mouths of creeks that split off from the main river in 12-15 feet. Striper: Fair. Check down the lake in the back of the big creeks. Some schooling reported up the river. Use freelining with live bait.

Piedmont Area Lake Russell Bass: Fair to Good. Fish were recently grouped up in 20-40 feet of water in the middle to backs of the creeks, but as temperatures dropped they moved into 60-80 feet of water at the mouths of creeks and stacked up on deep flats.

Utilize drop shots and jigging spoons he expects to catch 100 or more fish in a day. It’s anyone’s guess what the next few weeks will bring with plenty of rain and at least some balmy weather in the extended forecast.

Lake Thurmond Striped and hybrid bass: Good.

Captain William Sasser reports that striped bass seem similarly unaffected by fluctuating water conditions as the bass.

Fish bit right through the wild, running current when all of the water was

Then I got a text from Clayton that read simply “Hog hunters.”

Looking at the eastern sky I realized it was nearly sunrise. The gobbling would end soon, so I got in the truck and headed back to pick him up. He hadn’t heard a thing but owls, woodpeckers and trucks driving into the clubhouse to organize a hog hunt. I told him about the gobblers that I had heard on the way back to pick up Matt.

Matt was waiting at the gate and was brimming over with excitement. He had heard numerous gobblers and saw that the sandy road, and our little chufa patch that paralleled the road, was plastered with scratchings and turkey tracks, a very good sign.

We rode around for a little while comparing notes, looking at the land, and figuring out where the hog hunt was happening, then stopped to look for arrowheads near the river. We picked up some pottery shards and moved on to a new location. There we collected more pottery, a couple of chunks of stock material, and one beautiful small arrowhead. Treasures!

And good evidence that this land had been hunted by others, long before us. By midmorning we were on the road headed home.

running through the lake, and if anything the action seemed to excite the fish. Right now fish are being caught all over the place on Clarks Hill, and the last few outings William has been concentrating on 25-30 feet of water off main lake points on the lower part of the lake. Fishing down-lined live herring right on the bottom has been effective for striper and hybrids.

Lake Wylie Largemouth Bass: Slow to fair. Fish have moved deep due to cold temperatures. Try grubs for bait. If you get a sunny day then move to the flats near the creek channels. If the lake is muddy then use a spinnerbait or rattletraps.

Mountains Area Lake Hartwell Catfish: Fair to good. This time of year blue catfish have moved up shallower and into the creeks this January, and when conditions permitted you can catch some pretty good numbers of 8-12 pound blues on cut herring.

Drifting in 15-30 feet of water has been pretty effective, and if anglers could find a shore that was possible to pull up on they could probably do well anchoring baits at the same depth. The wind has been periodically strong so that anchoring a boat in open water has been tough. Cut herring, cut shad, or most any other fresh cut bait is working. Striped Bass: Slow to fair.

Captain Bill Plumley reports that fishing has been pretty tough for striper, but some fish have been caught on jigging spoons. Anglers should first mark fish on the bottom, and then drop a spoon down - and expect plenty of white perch to be mixed in with the catch. In the afternoon when temperatures warm up marginally some fish have also been caught on free-lined live herring.

Lake Keowee Bass: Fair. Until the very recent cold snap this action could be found throughout the day, both in overcast and sunny conditions. Fish could also be

Thirty years ago, only coastal anglers were aware of the cobia, large pelagic saltwater fish that show up along the coasts of the Carolinas beginning around late April and stay through the summer. The cobia looks like a cross between a shark and a catfish.

Cobia fishing became extremely popular for a number of reasons, particularly along the southern coastal range of South Carolina, about 15 years ago. Rarely was the opportunity to catch such a large saltwater species from a small boat available.

As the popularity of the fishery grew, so did concerns over the effects of what potential overfishing might be having on the population.

Fisheries biologists formulated a theory that a large contingent of cobia were using Port Royal Sound as a breeding ground and not just a passthrough feeding spot.

Today, after research on the species, some phenomenal facts about cobia have come to light.

“We have identified that these fish do spawn in Port Royal Sound,” said Al Stokes, a marine biologist at South Carolina Department of Natural Resources’ Waddell Maraculture Center in Bluffton. “But it goes beyond that. Through DNA testing, we have identified this strain of cobia that spawn in the sound in the same locations year after year. It’s very similar to salmon — swim great lengths to return to a specific breeding ground year after year.”

To augment the number of fish in our waters, biologists at Waddell have learned to spawn, grow and release young cobia into the area waters. The threat to the future of “wild” cobia populations around Port Royal Sound were not fully understood until a few years ago.

“We can tell which fish are spawned here at Waddell,” Stokes said. “We had anglers offer to keep fish alive and donate them and when testing, we were unable to find a Port Royal strain of cobia that we didn’t spawn.”

The state legislature is looking at two bills that would establish a Cobia Management Zone from Edisto Beach south to the Georgia line and out to the three-mile federal waters line.

“This legislation establishes a catch-and-release-only requirement during the month of May,” said David Whitaker, assistant deputy director for the Marine Resources Division of SCDNR. The hope is that this legislation will turn around the decline of this fishery.

“It will take three years to start seeing the effects once the legislation is in place,” Whitaker said. “We are hoping that in five, six years we will see this magnificent fishery return to its former status.”

found on the surface over deep water as well as in the shallows. While the surface pattern will probably wane as the water starts to approach more normal winter temperatures, the deep/ drop-shot pattern will get stronger and stronger. As is typical finesse worms fished on dropshot rig are accounting for the greatest number of his fish, but small spoons have also been catching bass.

Lake Jocassee Bass: Slow Largemouth bass can be caught on Lake Jocassee in January and February, but Guide Rob McComas says that he typically spends relatively little time targeting them at this time of year.

When Rob is able to target smallmouth he likes to go after them, and the winter months are the most consistent smallmouth bass season on Jocassee.

For the next month or two Rob says that he will chiefly be targeting brown fish on the lake. Pursuing smallmouth in January and February means fishing off steep points and bluff walls, and that can mean fishing in the main lake or in the rivers. The Whitewater River has some good steep points and bluff walls, and he will be fishing anywhere that has the structure he is looking for. The bait of choice for Rob is a float n fly rig, and he is usually fishing it 12-20 feet deep.

Saltwater Little River No report.

Grand Strand Inshore: Before the cold temps, trout and redfish were both feeding pretty

well around the jetties and inside the Inlet. Both live bait and artificial shrimp were catching fish, but the cold weather seems to have slowed things down.

Some sheepshead are also around at the jetties and a few juvenile flounder are still being caught inshore.

Charleston Offshore: Solid bottom fishing reports continue to come in when the wind has allowed boats to get out and the best part is that with the colder weather they don’t have to go as far to find good fishing. Sea bass, triggerfish, and b-liners have been found in good sizes and numbers in anywhere from 60-90 feet of water using squid, cigar minnows, and an assortment of styles of jigs. The few boats that have gone way offshore reports some nice wahoo still hanging around in 150-300 feet of water and some blackfin tuna in the same depths.

The best wahoo reports came from those anglers high-speed trolling.

Beaufort-Hilton Head Spottail Bass: Good. Fish are grouped up in large schools. This time of year you need to be subtle in your presentations with the clear water, and on spinning tackle throw as light a jig as you can throw around creek mouths and flats where fish should be sitting. Small paddle tail grubs in light or bright colors - not dark colors - are a good option, as are Gulp! Shrimp. Small #4 and #6 flies in light colors, such as tan kwan flies, are good on fly gear. On the incoming tide fish will be a bit shallower when the mud is warm, and on dropping tides fish will hold a bit deeper. It is worth remembering to throw to the edge of schools to avoid spooking fish. Away from the flats, some fish can also be caught around deep holes and trees.

Comedy Peeks Behind the Curtain

By Candace Havens FYI Television

Sunday, February 28 - March 5, 2016

www.theitem.com

Eileen (Martha Plimpton) just wants her family to be perfect on ABC’s “The Real O’Neals,” airing Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. in a sneak preview before its March 8 premiere.

ABC’s new comedy “The Real O’Neals,” airing Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. in a sneak preview before its Tuesday, March 8, premiere, is loosely based on a series of humorous memoirs by Dan Savage about his dysfunctional family. The matriarch, Eileen O’Neal (Martha Plimpton), is a devout Catholic who prides herself on having the perfect husband and children. On the outside, they appear to be the all-American neighbors next door.

Then one day it all falls apart, and she discovers the people she loves most aren’t exactly who she thinks they are.

It begins when Eileen’s 16-year-old son, Kenny (Noah Galvin), decides to come out of the closet at a church event. Meanwhile, his older brother, Jimmy (Matt Shively), is struggling with the pressures of being a star athlete and may have an eating disorder, while their sister, Shannon (Bebe Wood), is a con artist swindling the neighbors out of their hard-earned cash. And Eileen’s husband, Pat (Jay R. Ferguson), the emotional rock of the family, wants a divorce. The only person Eileen can count on is her best friend Jodi (Mary Hollis Inboden), who makes a pretty fun sidekick.

While Kenny comes out in the pilot, the show isn’t just about his journey. “David (Windsor, executive producer) grew up with two gay dads, so this was always an important topic to us,” says executive producer Casey Johnson. “When the opportunity came to tell a real coming-out story and show that

with this family, it was exciting for us. But it isn’t everything. For me, it was about how we kind of pose for a Christmas card, and that’s what we want to show to the world.

And then, the minute you are done taking the photo, that’s when you are real, and that’s when you are who you are. And I think that’s what appealed to me about this show; it’s kind of taking that veneer off and finding out who these people really are underneath, and how they end up closer to one another. I connected very emotionally to it.”

It’s a comedy, but not everything is exactly rosy for the O’Neals. Eileen is extremely organized and likes her life a certain way. She wants her family to play along, and they do for a bit. When she first discovers the truth about Kenny, she’s not sure what to do with the information.

“And then, she realizes that her love for her son sort of trumps everything else,” says Windsor. “And so that’s the interesting journey that I think she takes through all of this.

The show is full of love, warmth and comedy. I think at the end of the day, you’re going to realize that it’s about this family that just loves each other. And faith is an important part of their lives.”

“What you really see in the series is maybe not acceptance, but empathy,” adds executive producer Todd Holland. “And there’s great empathy in this family for one another and all of their various dysfunctions.

And that’s what’s really special about it.”

The show is respectful when it comes to matters of faith. “My mother is very religious,” Holland says, “and I can’t tolerate when

people condescend the faith. It is very important to her, and I don’t consider our show ever condescends the faith. That’s not the idea at all.”

Wood, who is a Christian, believes the show will be relatable to viewers of all ages. “My friends all think it’s hilarious,” she says. “They saw the trailer, and they love it.

They think it’s completely relatable.

There’s a joke that the priest in the show drives a Lexus. And our priest at church drives a Jaguar.”

“We also did an episode about Shannon’s confirmation,” says executive producer Stacy Traub. “It came out of a conversation we had with Bebe about her own confirmation – she’s super smart – and how she had a lot of questions. It’s all kind of based in reality.”

Playing a matriarch isn’t exactly new territory for Plimpton, but this is a different type of role. ‘“Raising Hope’ was kind of a zanier, wackier show from the mind of Greg Garcia,” Plimpton says. “Actually, it was really well put to me by one of our directors, Rebecca Asher, who said, ‘You know, Virginia Chance lives in her body. She’s most confident living in her body, and Eileen O’Neal is most confident living in her faith.’ Right? Eileen’s world is more in her head and she gets into her head a lot more, whereas Virginia was a much more physical person, much more visceral kind of person.

So, that’s new, you know. That’s a change, and it’s challenging and fun.

Yeah. I’m as ridiculous as Virginia is in many ways, but Eileen has her own ridiculousness, too, and it’s sort of more in her heart. I don’t know how else to describe it.”
