Missing mother surrenders

Survivor shares story

27-year-old faces neglect charges FROM STAFF REPORTS A mother who went missing a week ago has turned herself in to Sumter Police Department and now faces child neglect charges after leaving her two young children alone.

Shardae Evette Davis, 27, of Ritz Mobile Home Park, 611 E. Liberty St. Lot 21, DAVIS was charged Friday with two counts of unlawful conduct toward a child, according to a news release from the police department.

She was booked at SumterLee Regional Detention Center.

At 5:11 p.m. Jan. 15, officers responded to Davis’ home after a neighbor called 911 about a disturbance at the residence.

According to the release, two small children, a nearly 2-year-old and a 5-week-old, were found by officers alone and unharmed before being placed into the care of family members.

Davis later contacted police to say she was OK, but was reluctant to come forward because of an outstanding shoplifting warrant in Horry County.

If convicted of child neglect Davis faces fines set at the discretion of a judge or a sentence of no more than 10 years in prison for each charge, according to the release.

Police are continuing to look for Herbert Linwood Butler, 34, of 114 Willow Drive, earlier a person of interest in the case, who is wanted on a warrant for domestic violence for a previous incident.

An investigation is ongoing, states the release.

Anyone with information about Butler’s whereabouts is asked to call Sumter Police Department at (803) 436-2700.

Tips can also be given anonymously to Crime Stoppers at (803) 436-2718 or 1-888-CRIMESC.

At age 8, Sumter man spent 9 months in concentration camp

BY KONSTANTIN VENGEROWSKY konstantin@theitem.com Wednesday is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The day, designated by the United Nations, commemorates the genocide that resulted in the death of an estimated 6 million Jews, along with countless other minorities.

Sumter resident Bogdan M. “Nick” Zlotnicki, was only 8 years old when he and his family were sent to a concentration camp in Seeboden, Austria, in August 1944. The camp’s residents were not Jewish, as in many of the concentration camps.

They were women, children and elderly men from Eastern European countries occupied by Nazi Germany, he said. The camp interned about 200 people when Zlotnicki was there. Although there were no guards at the camp, except a Nazi commandant from Czechoslovakia, and no barbed wire or other means of securing the inmates, escape was pointless, he said.

“There were no guards, but there was no place to go,” Zlotnicki said. “When we arrived at the camp, my mom, Stefania Lyczkowski, had just given birth to my sister three weeks prior and had me and my younger

brother to take care of.”

Zlotnicki’s stepfather, the late Michael Lyczkowski, was sent to a labor camp, about 19 miles from the concentration camp where the rest of his family was.

Seeboden is located in south central Austria, several hundred miles north of Italy’s border. The name of the camp was “Seebach,” and Zlotnicki’s family was brought there in August 1944. Before their arrival at the camp, the family had lived in Nazi-occupied

Ukraine for about five years.

Between 1941 and 1945, more than 2 million Ukrainians were deported to Germany as slave labor.

Chamber President Pro Prothro said during his tenure he’d like to explore ways to expose the county to potential residents. After all, if they come for a day, they may PROTHRO want to find a way to come back and stay forever, he said.

As an example, he pointed

out the Chamber’s current marketing material aimed at golfers from colder climates.

Letting them know they can golf year round at three major courses in the county at reasonable rates may encourage weekend getaways to the area.

Ditto for the world-class fishing in area lakes.

Coupling golfing and fishing with a great health care and hospital system could get

those nearing retirement to take a second look at the area’s reasonable real estate prices.

The Chamber retreat had been scheduled for last Friday through today, but was canceled because of inclement weather.

The Chamber planned the retreat in Greenville to help business members realize the potential of revitalizing the Manning downtown area.

Greenville Mayor Knox White has led a similar movement in that city for more than 20 years by emphasizing neighborhood revitalization, economic development and transformational projects for Greenville’s downtown area.

The Chamber scheduled White as the keynote speaker of the retreat, which would

Boy Scouts plant tree seedlings to mark the occasion

BY ADRIENNE SARVIS adrienne@theitem.com Shaw Air Force Base received a helping hand in a beautification project this weekend when its Boy Scouts helped plant more than 100 tree seedlings in celebration of the base’s 75th anniversary.

Shaw’s Natural Cultural Resources Chief Ronald June said former City of Sumter Mayor Steve Creech played a big role in coordinating the event.

Creech said American Forestry Management, with assistance from the organization’s CEO, Bo Shaw, donated 500 longleaf pine trees to the base. He said one of the areas where the seedlings were planted is named after one of Shaw’s uncles.

City of Sumter donated 50 live oak trees in 1991 for the base’s 50 year anniversary, Creech said. Those trees were planted at the perimeter of the base and can bee seen from U.S. 76 and U.S. 378, he said.

The planting project started with a briefing during which June provided information about the pine trees. He said longleaf pine trees are native to the southeast United States and provide shelter for the population of Red-cockaded Woodpeckers in Sumter. The trees are also fire-retardant because of the long pine needles that protect the plant’s terminal bud, he said.

Also, longleaf pine trees are beautiful in an urban setting, he added.

June said the trees would be replacing several trees that were lost during Hurricane Hugo in 1989, and aside from providing shade, the trees will break up the wind and provide a barrier for noise coming from the base.

In about 70 years, the trees will be mature and will stand between 60 and 100 feet tall, he said.

Garrett Oakden, above, 10, digs a bore hole to plant a longleaf pine tree at Shaw Air Force Base on Saturday morning. Oakden and members of Boy Scout Troop 342 also used the stakes, left, to mark the 100 seedlings they planted so mowers could avoid them.

June said the project started two days earlier when base volunteers planted several hundred trees on Thursday and Friday.

Brian Davis, leader of Shaw Boy Scout Troop 342 and Cub Pack 320, said Saturday’s event was a great way for the community and base to get in-

volved in a common project.

“We’re always up for a community project,” he said.

He said the Scouts also do these kind of projects to hopefully pique their interests in environmental issues.

Davis said the Scouts and Cubs will earn a forestry merit badge for their participation.

S.C. ports boost amount of refrigerated cargo

BY BRUCE SMITH The Associated Press NORTH CHARLESTON — Inside it’s a balmy minus 15 degrees.

But it’s minus 40 if you consider the wind chill caused by the massive fans in the blast freezing room at a newly expanded cold storage building on the South Carolina coast.

Stacked almost to the ceiling in the cavernous structure near a South Carolina Ports Authority terminal are pallets of imported Australian beef, pork raised on farms in the Southeast and chicken legs being exported to Asia.

The $18 million expansion more than doubles the size of the existing facility operated by New Orleans Cold Storage.

The expansion was completed with a $15 million contribution from the authority, which is also adding

‘We have historically underperformed in that segment, and we are catching up.’

JIM NEWSOME S.C. Ports Authority president and CEO new dock infrastructure for refrigerated cargo, a quickly growing segment of port business.

Refrigerated cargo volumes through Charleston have increased almost 40 percent in five years. By later this year, 600,000 square feet of cold storage will be available to port customers: a more than tenfold increase in just seven years.

“It’s an important addi-

tion to the group of assets that serve our port,” said Jim Newsome, the authority’s president and CEO, who said refrigerated cargo is an important part of world trade. “We have historically underperformed in that segment, and we are catching up.”

Refrigerated products now comprise about 4 percent of authority exports, much of it pork and chicken from farms in the Southeast. New Orleans Cold Storage, founded in the 1880s, expanded to North Charleston in 1987.

It was its first facility outside of New Orleans. The expansion adds more refrigerated storage and more room for so-called blast freezing. Most producers ship fresh produce that needs to be frozen for export.

“They don’t have the capabilities to freeze the produce themselves in their

own production facilities, so they bring it to facilities like ours,” said Mark Blanchard, the president and CEO of New Orleans Cold Storage.

“We take produce that is 34 to 38 degrees, put it in our blast freezer and circulate a lot of cold air on it, and it freezes quickly,” he said.

Large pallets of produce are frozen within 20 to 44 hours. When a customer is ready to ship, the goods are loaded into refrigerated shipping containers and taken by trucks to the docks.

The authority board on Wednesday agreed to spend nearly $5 million to add four additional refrigerator racks on the docks at its Mount Pleasant terminal.

Each rack can hold 30 containers, meaning an additional 120 refrigerated containers can be moved through the port at the same time.

A healthy gut contributes to a healthy body

Revving up the crowd

H KEITH GEDAMKE / THE SUMTER ITEM

Thomas Sumter Academy cheerleaders work to pump up the crowd attending their girls basketball game Jan. 15 against Wilson Hall. TSA won the game 41-39 to remain undefeated.

Mother to raise awareness of rare neurological condition FLORENCE (AP) — One day in June 2015, Shasta Partee’s daughter, Nae’mya Shabazz, fell ill.

As the family relaxed at home visiting with Partee’s sister from Ohio, the 10-year-old’s leg began to shake. Partee took Shabazz to the hospital to be tested. Neither Carolinas Hospital System nor McLeod Medical Center could explain what was happening to her child.

The family logged hundreds of miles traveling to hospitals across South Carolina and the eastern United States trying to find answers. In the process, Partee began to feel hopeless, and she lost her job because of her frequent absence.

Fast forward about six months, and some of the family’s questions are finally being answered. Shabazz was diagnosed with primary generalized dystonia at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Now, as she continues to search for help for her daughter, Partee also hopes to spread awareness.

Dystonia is a neurological condition in which a person’s brain causes a sustained contraction of muscles that do not normally contract together, said Dr. Ihtsham Haq, a movement disorder specialist at Wake Forest. The contraction can produce twisting move-

|

ments, cramping and even tremors, he said, and it’s often misdiagnosed.

“The condition is not as wellknown as it might be, and it can be mistaken for other conditions, Haq said. “It can look different from person (to person), even when multiple family members are affected.”

There are several kinds of dystonia, but one recent estimate puts the prevalence of primary dystonia in the population at between 15 and 20 per 100,000 people, Haq said.

Because it is a movement disorder, it falls into the same category as diseases like Parkinson’s. But, Haq said, dystonia is much less prevalent than Parkinson’s, which has a prevalence of about 1600 per 100,000 people.

Partee said she ran into problems in her search for help because those who have never dealt with the disease do not feel qualified to diagnosis it.

Jessica Feeley, editor and special projects director at the Dystonia Medical Research Foundation, said a lot of the problem with misdiagnosis has to do with a person’s proximity to a large movement disorder center.

Centers such as Wake Forest are research hubs, she said. It’s important to realize that the research on the disease is

being done, Feeley said, and doctors are making great progress in expanding treatment.

But ultimately, as with any disorder, doctors, researchers and patients want a cure.

“There’s a whole field of people interested in finding a cure,” she said.

It begins with raising public awareness and medical education, she said.

Dr. Dick Schroer, who works at Greenwood Genetics Center in Charleston, saw Shabazz back in July.

“There is a family history of a movement disorder, and it’s suspected to be dystonia,” Schroer said.”

Because Schorer is not a neurologist or movement disorder specialist, he did not feel comfortable commenting specifically on Shabazz’s condition.

But he did say it can be difficult to diagnose movement disorders. Schorer said it can also be difficult to distinguish neurological movement disorders from voluntary movements of the individual or movements that are related to emotional problems.

“The mother is a strong advocate for her child and is trying (to find) the answers,” Schroer said. ‘She keeps me posted on what other doctors have found and what they’ve had to say.”

ippocrates was quoted saying that “All diseases begin in the gut” and that “Food should be our medicine, and medicine should be our food.”

Schools of medicine that have gotten away from this belief are now beginning to Missy re-embrace this Corrigan philosophy. Current and ongoing medical research is showing that there was truth behind his wisdom now linking an unhealthy gut with a range of health and skin problems as well as neurological, psychological and autoimmune disorders.

There are trillions of bacteria that live in the gut that are linked to your overall health. The bacteria you have depends on the foods you eat.

The gut not only moves food through the body and absorbs nutrients, but research shows that our gut is tied to our emotional well-being and plays a more significant role in the health of our immune system.

With more than 500 species of bacteria, the gut impacts everything including metabolism, illness and disease.

Poor gut health has been linked to a poor diet, but it really all begins at birth.

If the mother has an unhealthy gut, it will be most likely be passed along to the baby, increasing risk for autism, ADD, ADHD, dyslexia, asthma, allergies and digestive issues.

Common snack foods high in sugar that contain chemical additives and are low in nutrients harm the good bacteria allowing the bad bacteria to flourish.

Processed foods in gen-

HEALTHY GUT TIPS • Exercise regularly • Consume fermented foods • Reduce the use of antibiotics • Eliminate processed foods • Take probiotics

eral have depleted the naturally occurring beneficial bacteria and fuel the bad bacteria.

A study published in Immunology and Cell Biology shows that exercise during developmental years can help create a more balanced environment within the intestines.

More importantly, the study revealed that the microbes in the gut contribute 5 million genes to your genetic profile influencing everything from development and metabolism to brain and immune system function.

These findings are contributing to new ideas on how to treat obesity and disease linked to poor nutrition.

Although developing a healthy gut at a young age may have a more positive effect on your life, it can continue to be influenced throughout your life.

Lifestyle choices such as diet, exercise, stress, sleep and even taking antibiotics change the bacteria community, improving or worsening your gut.

Antibiotics, antibacterial products, processed foods and sugary foods all negatively affect your bacteria and can effect your overall health.

You do have and need both “bad” and “good” bacteria. The health problems begin to occur when it becomes disproportional.

So don’t just consider the foods you are eating; think about the ones you aren’t eating that can be a positive influence on your gut and long-term health outcomes.

Dancer from Virgin Islands reaching new heights

BY MARY KATE MCGOWAN The Index-Journal of Greenwood GREENWOOD (AP) — When Gregory Nelson started dancing with F.I.Y.A. Dance University three years ago, he was quiet and kept to the back row.

This December, he rose above his fellow dancers during the Greenwood Christmas Parade when he performed on 3-foot-tall stilts.

Nelson, 16, was one of the original F.I.Y.A. dancers, which stands for Focus Inspired Young Achievers, when Tavoris Miller opened the studio in 2012.

Although Nelson had danced in shows in the Virgin Islands where he grew up, he had never danced in a studio before.

“It was kind of nerve-racking going into it,” he said.

Nelson moved to Greenwood from Tortola, one of the British Virgin Islands, about four years ago with his family, including his 15-year-old sister, Madison Nelson, who also dances at F.I.Y.A. Nelson was born in Greenwood, but moved to the Virgin Islands at a young age.

“The Virgin Islands is always home for us because that’s all we know,” Nelson said.

With this year’s Greenwood Christmas Parade theme of “Christmas Around the World,” Miller decided on a Caribbean Christmas theme, which was solidified by Nelson’s experience with stilts.

“Because I’m from the Virgin Islands, it’s a very common thing during the pa-

Nelson learned how to walk with stilts in about an hour when he was 7 years old.

“To people, it looks like it’s very complicated, but it’s really easy,” Nelson said.

He said once a person can “chip” with stilts, which means walk in place, they can begin to walk with increasing-

ly larger steps.

Nelson walked for about 45 minutes during the parade without falling, and Miller said Nelson even danced and jumped around while elevated.

“It was probably the most fun I’ve ever had at the studio because it reminded me of back home,” Nelson said.

“When the music started playing, it just took me back.”

Nelson said he was quiet when he first began dancing with F.I.Y.A. soon after moving to Greenwood, but Miller helped him break out of his shell through dancing at the studio.

He said Miller wants new students to practice up front.

Miller said it has taken about three years to get Nelson toward the front.

“In the process, I’ve see him grow as a student and even to the point where he’s teaching now,” he said.

Never forgetting the Virgin Islands, he said he and his sister create dances and always incorporate one move that reminds them of home.

Even Nelson’s career aspiration of becoming a marine biologist is connected with the Caribbean islands. He is studying at Piedmont Technical College with hopes of transferring to Coastal Carolina University to study marine biology.

He said there is a part of the Virgin Islands that is struggling with water filtration and cleanliness, and he wants to understand why that is happening.

“We should always have lovely water,” he said. “I want to figure out what is going on and what’s going on under there.”

Nelson graduated from Greenwood High School in May at age 16 because his education in the Virgin Islands allowed him to advance quickly though the Greenwood school system.

Because Nelson said he

does not have much family in Greenwood, F.I.Y.A. is like his “blood family,” and he is at the studio almost every day for several hours helping cheer on other dancers for emotional support.

When he is not at the studio or studying, Gregory Nelson said he likes to play video games with his brother, Nicoy, 16.

As his sister is another dancer at the studio, he said he loves spending time with her.

“Some people don’t like it (dancing with siblings) because they feel like they’re taking attention away,” he said. “She makes me a better dancer.”

Madison Nelson, 15, also said she enjoys dancing with her sibling as she wants him to become better because he is her brother.

“It’s different than just dancing with one of your friends,” she said. “It’s exciting and makes me dance harder.”

Madison Nelson performed alongside her brother during the Christmas parade as a F.I.Y.A. dancer.

Although she has never walked on stilts, she said she was happy her brother was able to because of the connection to the Virgin Islands.

“I know he was excited to finally do it again,” she said. “I was really happy for him because he was so happy.”

For now, Gregory Nelson stands on his own feet, but there is a chance of the stilts coming back out if F.I.Y.A. has a Caribbean themed performance.

China’s maternity matrons prep for mini baby boom BEIJING (AP) — Now that China has abandoned its decades-long one-child policy, demand for maternity services is expected to grow as women take advantage of the chance to have a second child. Some of those women will be older than average and will have special health needs.

A school in Beijing, Li Ming Maternity Service Co., is anticipating this trend by offering new training for high-end maternity matron services.

It is common practice in China for women to spend a month in bed after giving birth. During this time, middle- and upper-class families often use maternity matrons

to help out, caring for both mother and baby and arranging meals up to six times a day.

The maternity service company’s general manager, Cui Jingwen, says an experienced maternity matron can earn up to about $2,300 a month.

For 35 years, China’s family planning policy limited most urban couples to one child and rural couples to two if their first was a girl — until the policy was relaxed in October to allow parents to have two children.

Because of that change, demographics expert Huang Wenzheng says China may see more than 2 million extra births next year.

Animals at Gaza’s zoos die of hunger, diseases after blockade

BY FARES AKRAM The Associated Press RAFAH, Gaza Strip — The African tiger at the zoo in southern Gaza Strip was emaciated, its belly shrunken and its striped coat hanging loose. It strode nervously up and down its cage.

“I swear to God the tiger has not eaten for four or five days,” said Mohammed Ouida, the owner of South Jungle Zoo. “It needs 100 shekels (about $20) of food a day.”

Once bustling with families bringing their children to see lions, monkeys, crocodiles and ostriches, the zoo is mostly empty now, and Ouida can’t generate enough cash to feed his animals.

The same story is playing out across Gaza’s six makeshift zoos. Years of conflict, cold winters, longstanding negligence and outbreaks of disease have killed many animals in captivity.

Even in better times, there has often been little awareness of animal welfare in Gaza. In 2013, for instance, two lion cubs died shortly after birth because zoo workers in northern Gaza did not know how to care for them.

A mountain goat tries to eat Jan. 8 from behind the metal bars of a damaged cage at Al-Bisan Zoo in northern Gaza Strip. the border fence from Egypt into Gaza as the animal twitched in the air in agony.

South Jungle has even turned to taxidermy to keep its deceased animals on exhibit.

Conditions in Gaza, home to 1.8 million people, have steadily deteriorated since Hamas, an

Ouida and his brothers have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars into their business.

They once employed 30 workers and ran a cafeteria serving families and school trippers.

These days, Ouida works at a gravel quarry, and his two brothers drive a taxi. Only two of them still show up at South Jungle.

The zoo’s problems began during a 50-day war between Israel and Hamas in 2014. The zoo was not directly hit, but neither Ouida nor his brothers could reach the site to feed the animals. The African tiger’s mate starved to death.

Of the six ostriches, only one is still alive. The lions and the only llama died in December.

There are no more crocodiles.

The dead animals are primitively stuffed and stacked in a corner of the zoo.

Most of Gaza’s zoos are private business ventures, set up by owners who lack experience in caring for animals in captivity.

“Basically, it’s improvisation by some citizens,” said Zakaria al-Kafarna, veterinary official at the Hamas Agriculture Ministry, which only provides immunizations for livestock, not wild animals.

The effect of conflict and years of negligence is also evi-

dent at Al-Bisan Zoo, built by Hamas in northern Gaza. It was badly damaged during the 2014 war, when more than 80 animals and birds died.

Islamic militant group sworn to Israel’s destruction, seized control of the territory in 2007 and prompted an Israeli and Egyptian blockade.

The loss of one of Gaza’s few allies, former Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, who was ousted by the military in 2013 after protests against his rule, and a 2014 war with Israel have hit the territory especially hard. Unemployment is estimated by World Bank to stand at 43 percent, and Gazans suffer shortages of many goods, including electricity and cooking gas.

During the past two years, Egypt has also shut its borders with Gaza, preventing Gazans from leaving the territory, and blocked smuggling tunnels.

The closure has not only stopped new animals from arriving, but also deprived Hamas of major smuggling tax revenues. Cash-strapped Hamas has struggled to pay the salaries of its 40,000 employees.

“People have a hard time finding food, much less the animals,” lamented Ouida, noting that half of the remaining 20 or so animals and birds in his zoo are ill because he also can’t afford a veterinarian. Vets used to check his animals every two months.

Blizzard brings East Coast to standstill; 17 dead

BY SETH BORENSTEIN AND JENNIFER PELTZ The Associated Press NEW YORK — A blizzard with hurricane-force winds brought much of the East Coast to a standstill Saturday dumping as much as 3 feet of snow, stranding tens of thousands of travelers and shutting down the nation’s capital and its largest city.

After days of weather warnings, most of the 80 million people in the storm’s path heeded requests to stay home and off the roads, which were largely deserted. Yet at least 17 deaths were blamed on the weather — most from traffic incidents, but several people also died while shoveling snow.

And more snow was to come, with dangerous conditions expected to persist until early Sunday, forecasters warned.

“This is going to be one of those generational events, where your parents talk about how bad it was,” Ryan Maue, a meteorologist for WeatherBell Analytics, said from Tallahassee, Florida, which also saw some flakes.

The system was mammoth, dropping snow from the Gulf Coast to New England. By afternoon, areas near Washington had surpassed 30 inches.

The heaviest unofficial report was in a rural area of West Virginia, not far from Harper’s Ferry, with 40 inches.

Besides snow and wind, the National Weather Service predicted up to half an inch of ice for the Carolinas and potentially serious coastal flooding for the mid-Atlantic region.

As the storm picked up, forecasters increased their snow predictions for New York and points north. The new estimates were for heavy snow nearly all the way to Boston, forecaster Patrick Burke said from the weather service’s Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Maryland.

“This is kind of a Top 10 snowstorm,” said weather service winter storm expert Paul Kocin, who co-wrote a twovolume textbook on blizzards.

And for New York and Washington this looks like Top 5, he said: “It’s a big one.”

By early evening, the core of the system was rolling away from Washington toward New York, where normally bustling streets around Rockefeller Center, Penn Station and other landmarks were mostly empty. Those who did venture out walked

down the middle of snow-covered streets to avoid even deeper drifts on the sidewalks.

With Broadway shows dark, thin crowds shuffled through a different kind of Great White Way in Times Square.

As recently as Friday night, New York officials had expected the storm to top out at 18 inches. But that prediction jumped to 25 inches Saturday morning and to 28 by evening.

More than 19 inches had fallen on Central Park by late afternoon.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo imposed a travel ban in the city, ordering all nonemergency vehicles off the roads. Commuter rails and above-ground segments of the nation’s biggest subway system shut down, too, along with buses.

Without a bus, home health aide Elijah Scarboro couldn’t get to his next client, an 89-year-old man with Alzheimer’s.

“I’m really concerned,” he said. “But I think he’ll be fine.

He’s with his wife. I wish I could get there, but I can’t.”

Cab driver Mian Ayyub said he tried to pick up fares Saturday morning but gave up after getting stuck four times in two hours. Police and passers-by helped free him.

“I’ve been driving a cab 28 years, but this looks like the worst,” he said.

He parked and went home.

The scenario was much the opposite of what unfolded a year ago, when a storm carrying predictions for 18 to 24 inches of snow prompted officials to enforce a complete shutdown of the subway system — the first ever in a snowstorm — but less than a foot ultimately fell in the city.

The decision to close the subways drew criticism from some business owners and transit advocacy groups, but the mayor and governor said the forecast had left them no choice.

In Washington, monuments that would typically be busy with tourists stood vacant. In the morning, the steps of the Lincoln Memorial had not been cleared off and looked almost like a ski slope. At the Korean War Veterans Memorial, statues of soldiers were coated with snow, as was the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial.

Visibility was sharply reduced. On an average day, visitors can see from the Lincoln Memorial to the Washington Monument and the Capitol.

A young woman jump from a park bench into deep snow along the Potomac River as snow falls in Alexandria, Virginia, on Saturday. A blizzard with hurricane-force winds brought much of the East Coast to a standstill Saturday dumping as much as 3 feet of snow, stranding tens of thousands of travelers and shutting down the nation’s capital.

But on Saturday, the Washington Monument was not even visible from the memorial to the 16th president.

All mass transit in the capital was to be shut down through Sunday.

To the west, a miles-long backup of vehicles on the Pennsylvania Turnpike included a church group from Indiana.

Father Shaun Whittington said he and his 96 parishioners, mostly teenagers, were on their way home Friday evening from the March for Life in Washington when the turn-

pike turned into a snowy parking lot.

They had enough gas to keep the buses running and enough DVDs to keep the kids entertained until nearly noon Saturday, when plows finally arrived, Whittington said.

“We’re on a pilgrimage,” he said. “There’s going to be suffering with that.”

Hundreds of drivers were also stranded overnight in Kentucky on a long stretch of Interstate 75 south of Lexington because of a string of crashes and blowing snow.

Crews passed out snacks, fuel

and water and tried to move cars one by one.

The snow alone would have been enough to bring the East Coast to a halt. But it was whipped into a maelstrom by winds that reached 75 mph at Dewey Beach, Delaware, and Langley Air Force Base, Virginia, the weather service said.

From Virginia to New York, sustained winds topped 30 mph and gusted to about 50 mph. The wind was so strong that scientists reported trouble measuring the snow because it sometimes seemed to blow sideways.

One more tribute to Ray Davenport

BY HUBERT OSTEEN

W

COMMENTARY

allie Jones posted a nice tribute to the late Ray Davenport in his Friday letter to the editor. However, there is one factual correction I must make to his letter: He wrote in part: “After reading everything else in the paper first, I joyously and sadly read the wonderful tributes. Sadness because I knew there would probably be no more written tributes to Ray Davenport ...”

Wrong, Wallie; there’s one more tribute: Mine. I wanted to join the parade of Ray Davenport admirers who mourn his passing this week.

So here it is.

My family and I have had a long history with Ray. I first knew him as a graphics designer at the Osteen-Davis school/office supplies and commercial printing company on West Liberty Street founded by my father and Joe Ed Davis.

Ray contributed mightily to that business with his design skills in preparing print products for local businesses. To mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of The Item, he even created a special flag in 1994.

From there he went on to establish

his own business as a freelance artist whose paintings in all mediums earned him numerous awards for his creativity in the visual arts. Many homes in Sumter proudly display Ray works by Ray, includDavenport ing mine. One of his works is a painting of my home, and another is a beautiful acrylic painting of an old buggy in a field at sunset.

All of the accolades that Ray received after his death were richly deserved. He was one of the good guys

whom I never saw with a frown on his face. To the contrary, he was a warm, cheerful, upbeat, generous and delightful human being. Every time I saw him, he made the day better for me. To have him as a friend was a blessing.

He was not a South Carolina native, but he became one of us in a short amount of time and stood the test of time in so many important ways helping make Sumter a better community because of his presence. In the time he spent with us, he became a treasure, one that will truly be missed.

COMMENTARY

New CCTC program a great opportunity

F

ree is good, especially when it comes to offering advanced college education on the local level.

Our top story of the week by a landslide on www.theitem.com was reporter Konstantin Vengerowsky’s Thursday piece on Central Carolina Technical College.

Central Carolina President Tim Hardee announced an innovative new program offering free tuition to qualifying college students from Sumter, Clarendon, Lee Graham and Kershaw counties. It Osteen starts with this year’s 2016 graduating class — http://bit.ly/1WDZzre.

This is a big deal, and Hardee puts it in perspective: “This is the first time in South Carolina that students will have access to tuition-free college education,” he said. “In addition to benefiting students and their parents, this scholarship opportunity will also serve as an economic development tool, which will attract new industry as well as benefit our existing businesses and industry.”

A partnership between the college, all public and private high schools in all of the counties, county and city councils, economic development boards and commissions and various corporate sponsors will provide $250,000 a year for qualifying students, according to our reporting.

A representative from Gov. Nikki Haley’s office said there are 66,000 open jobs in South Carolina and 100,000 people who are unemployed.

The economic realities of the present and future require people of all ages to learn new skills in order to progress in most industries, and that often requires ongoing education.

Area young people who finish high school and get right into the types of programs Central Carolina offers have a better chance of success because they learn this reality early. They’re not afraid of school. Older workers who want or need to learn new skills have the same great opportunities in their own community through Central Carolina. Just to get an idea of what’s available, here’s the current list of offerings: — http://bit.ly/1PukxTL ••• On a similar positive educational note, Adrienne Sarvis reported in that same Thursday edition about University

‘Sumter is fortunate to have two such strong, affordable higher educational institutions ...’ of South Carolina Sumter celebrating 50 years.

Her story was accompanied

by Keith Gedamke’s great front page photo of students taking a group selfie picture — http://bit.ly/1UiExNi We were reminded that USC Sumter began in 1966 as a Clemson University campus, then switched to a USC campus seven years later.

Sumter is fortunate to have two such strong, affordable higher educational institutions, and their longevity and success have been the result of many outstanding leaders and strong public support through the years. Students of all ages can advance through USC Sumter’s wide range of programs, found here at www.uscsumter.edu.

••• Finally this week, we learned on Saturday that former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is considering running for president as an independent. Given the current state of affairs, that’s the best news I’ve heard in a long time.

It will certainly elevate the discussion.

According to The New York Times, “One adviser said that Mr. Bloomberg’s preparations reflected the unsettled state of the race, and the perception that Mrs. Clinton was flagging against Mr. Sanders. Mr. Bloomberg, this adviser said, believes voters want “a nonideological, bipartisan, resultsoriented vision” that the early primary favorites have not presented.”

Amen to that. Anyone but Trump, Cruz, Sanders or Clinton is OK with me.

According to various political sites, “No third-party candidate has ever won a U.S. presidential election. The strongest showing for a thirdparty candidate came in 1912, when former President Teddy Roosevelt left the Republican Party. He ended up coming in second, with 27.4 percent of the popular vote and 88 electoral votes.”

The odds are long, and it’s still early, but this is a race unlike any we’ve ever seen.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HELPED My daughter, Paige Watts, was involved in and accident at Liberty and Guignard on Dec. 29, 2015. I was out of town at the time, however, her husband Brian and my son Jeremy went to the scene. It was a horrific impact, and Paige was really dazed, extremely anxious, at first not being sure what had even happened.

All personnel on scene were not only attentive to Paige and others involved in the accident, but they kept Jeremy and Brian informed as to what was taking place.

The personnel are: • Sumter City Police Department: James Sinkler and Melissa Buck; • Sumter County Sheriff’s Office: Robert Mitchum; and • Sumter County Emergency Medical Services: Lisa Rowell, Luice Baer, Chris Chuala, David Pendarvis and Elizabeth Case.

There was also a young man, Matt Gregory, who works at the Valvoline Oil Change (quick lube) store on Liberty, who saw the accident, went to the scene, checked on the injured, called 91, and stayed there until emergency personnel arrived.

Paige expressed to me how comforting it was to her as well as her husband and brother. My sincerest thanks go out to these personnel and all who serve others in time of need. Please know that my prayers are with you all daily.

GLENN HARRELL Sumter

BE AWARE OF UNRELIABLE AND INVALID STATISTICS I read with interest the letter to the editor that was written by Sheriff Anthony Dennis on January 8, 2016.

I, too, am proud of the way this community came together as a family to get through the October’s once-in-a-thousand years flood. I am also proud of how all of the agencies — federal, state and local performed their duties in the face of such a catastrophic event. I am also proud of the individuals who worked tirelessly to help their neighbors and friends and to once again, prove that Sumter County is a big village that comes together in the time of need.

I am also happy as a lifelong resident of Sumter County to have done my part during the flood by taking bottled water to the students at my Alma Mater (Morris College) and using my old pickup truck to check on as many people in Sumter County as I could, especially those in the low-lying area of Eastern Sumter County. I thank God that with a sense of purpose and unity, this great community is on the right track to recover and becoming an even stronger and vibrant place to live.

I also read with keen curiosity and interest the 2015 accomplishments cited by Sheriff Dennis. Sheriff Dennis stated that from 2012 to 2015, Sumter County had an 80 percent reduction in homicides and an overall clearance rate of 50 percent with the national average being 33 percent.

So armed with this bit of excellent information, I decided to do some research for facts to support these statistics.

I read and analyzed data from three sources in order to come up with a more accurate record of crime in Sumter County. I researched the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Bureau of Justice Statistics and Criminal Justice Information Services Division, and I also analyzed information and data from the United States Census Bureau.

What I was able to extrapolate from my research was a stark difference from what Sheriff Dennis wrote in his letter to the editor.

THESE PEOPLE LEAD OUR CHILDREN? I wanted to take the time to publicly acknowledge a few individuals for their assistance recently. Who did it?

The State or the District Office is the Question? Each of

them are blaming it on the other. Are these the kind of people we want leading our children?

This situation is well overdue to be settled for stressing parents out. If you are trying to complete that task, you are doing a great job. We request that the bus stop be relocated because it was an accurate stop for all parents; and children and it has been a nightmare every since. To please the only Caucasian lady and her daughter in the neighborhood, the bus stop was moved one hundred feet from her driveway for unsafe reasons because of an intersection driveway. Now the children are getting off in the grass at the corner of a house rather than someone else’s driveway.

No one wants their children to walk anymore; and they think why people in the world can’t control their children.

Since the bus stop has been moved, we are dealing with the bus drivers. Listen to the parent and children as to where to let the children off the bus. Then we go back to the state and district office blaming each other. Then the state office coming out and saying that as long as they are on their porch and start to the bus, he (the driver) can wait on them or pick them up. Is this teaching them responsibility for the job world or what? Are the parents teaching them responsibility? If everyone starts doing the same, then no one would make it to school or breakfast on time. I can’t believe he said that, and he said it twice.

When my children or I caught the bus and were not at the bus stop on time, we were left behind. I remember running the bus down many times with my youngest because she procrastinated in the mornings. The bus passes our home to go to the next bus stop which is more than four-tenths of a mile from the previous bus stop.

SURVIVOR FROM PAGE A1 the Soviet Union. In 1941, Nazi Germany invaded the Soviet Union and the area fell under the Nazis’ control.

Zlotnicki’s mother was a nurse before the war. Zlotnicki’s father disappeared in 1939.

“We were told that he was killed, but we have no proof of it,” he said.

His mother remarried a few years later. The region where they lived fell under Adolf Hitler’s “District of Galicia” after Germany’s invasion. Zlotnicki said his town was mainly occupied by Hungarian soldiers. A German pharmacy and warehouse were set up in the town, he said.

“Slavic people were no good in the eyes of the Nazis,” Zlotnicki said. “There were some German soldiers, even (Nazi party elite police), however, who would share their food with us, but there were others who you just didn’t look at.”

FORCED TO LEAVE AND LIFE IN CONCENTRATION CAMP In August 1944, the Wehrmacht (Germany Army) was retreating from the region as Soviet forces advanced. Zlotnicki, his mother, stepfather, and two of his siblings had to leave the area, he said.

“As the German Army retreated, they took every ablebodied man with them,” Zlotnicki said. “My stepfather was taken to repair railroads.

As the Allies bombed the railroads, the Germans had to fix them. They did not have enough of their own people, so they took us.”

Women, children and the

elderly were sent to concentration camps, he said.

Zlotnicki, his mother, Stefania Lyczkowski, his brother, Leon, and his new-born sister, Maria, were sent by trucks to Hungary. They were then put on a train to Austria, just outside of the capital city of Vienna.

They then were sent to the concentration camp in Seeboden.

When they arrived at the camp, their hair was cut or shaved and they were bathed and disinfected, he said.

Food was scarce.

For breakfast the internees received a slice of rye bread and cup of coffee made from barley. Lunch consisted of boiled soup made from a vegetable and worms, most of which was water. Dinner consisted of another slice of rye bread, if they were lucky, Zlotnicki said. Once a week they received one patty of margarine.

“You can only imagine a woman trying to breastfeed a baby when she has nothing to eat,” he said. “I went begging for food from local farmers. I would come back with apples, sometimes, or a couple of slices of bread; that’s how we survived.”

Zlotnicki said another thing he did, as an 8 year old, was volunteer to unload trucks carrying coal that came to the camp.

“If I shoveled coal all day long, I would get a slice of bread, which was huge,” he said.

Internees slept together in large rooms consisting of bunk beds. One room housed 28 families, he said. Each family received one bunk bed.

“My brother and I slept on the top bunk, and my mother and the baby slept on the bot-

Every Saturday, they were forced to take a shower, which consisted of about three minutes total. Clothes were washed in a steam-type disinfectant.

“There was a lot of lice and bed bugs,” he said.

Most of the camp’s occupants consisted of Eastern Europeans, but there was one German family interned there as well, Zlotnicki said.

About two miles from the camp was a prisoner of war camp that held Russian and other Allied soldiers, Zlotnicki said.

lions of cars that pass through our area annually to stop in our county because of the ‘wow factor,’ and if we got 1 percent of those who stopped to buy real estate here, that would grow our population by hundreds and be exponentially good for our economy,” Prothro said.

He doesn’t know how to do that yet, but he’s determined to start the ball rolling under his tenure so that he can pass that growth torch to the next president.

Prothro, 38, said he understands young people right out of college may look for more amenities that big cities offer in terms of career opportunities and nightlife. But, like him, when

On May 1, 1945, the camp was liberated by the British.

On May 8, 1945 (in Russia celebrated May 9), Nazi Germany officially surrendered to the Allied forces.

“The war ended for different people at different times,” he said. “There was no newspapers, no radios, no source of information except by people.”

When the British liberated the camp, some internees decided to go back home.

Zlotnicki’s mother decided not to do that.

He talked about Jamie Mathis, 34, owner of Brunson’s Pharmacy in downtown Manning. Mathis grew up in Manning and returned to the community after getting his pharmacy degree. He worked as the manager of a pharmacy in the Wal-Mart in Man-

camps. Zlotnicki’s family was transported from one refugee camp to another until 1950. In 1950, Zlotnicki and his family arrived in the United States.

Zlotnicki and his wife, Gladys Zlotnicki, went back to visit the camp when he was serving in the U.S. Air Force in 1960.

“There were some people who were buried there, some people buried at the Austrian cemeteries in the area, and a soldier was buried on the side of the road because there was no place to bury him,” Zlotnicki said. “A lot of children died.”

ning while serving as an area manager for 11 other Wal-Marts. Three years ago, he launched out on his own and purchased Brunson’s Pharmacy in Manning and has been providing the kind of special hometown customer service that people rave about on the store’s Facebook site.

Prothro, who works in the family business, Prothro Chevrolet Buick GMC, said whether people are working in their family businesses like he is or stepping out on their own to start a business like Mathis, Clarendon County has a lot of advantages.

Veteran moves

In a reversal of 2015, Fire Ants’ experienced lineup likely needed to take next step for continued success

cross country

TSA’s Ladson off to SMC

By DENNIS BRUNSON dennis@theitem.com

Josh Ladson has signed to run cross country on the collegiate level with Spartanburg Methodist College, a 2-year junior college.

The Thomas Sumter Academy runner had several offers from 4-year schools, so why he decide to go the 2-year routed?

“I wanted to keep my options open. I’ve been considering the military, and I may want to join the military after the two years,” said Ladson, whose father and grandfather both served in the military.

The other schools he was considering were Coastal Carolina University, University of South Carolina Beaufort and University of West Florida.

See ladson, Page B6

SUMTER ITEM FILE PHOTO

University of South Carolina Sumter second baseman Mickey Dugan (8) is one of the returning veterans to a lineup that is loaded with sophomore experience. USCS will likely need both its offense and defense to perform even better this season in order for the Fire Ants to make a return trip to the Junior College World Series.

By justin driggers justin@theitem.com University of South Carolina Sumter first baseman Tee Dubose’s offseason workout regiment was a lot different this year than it was last year, he said.

“I tried to work even harder,” the former Sumter High School and Sumter P-15’s standout said. “I think everybody that’s coming back did. We know what we’re up against.”

And Dubose knows that another successful season will depend greatly on what is now a veteran group of returning position players.

It took a while, but the pool of talent-

ed freshmen USCS had entering last season seemed to blossom at just the right time. The Fire Ants’ scrappy never-say-die offense managed to pull out more than a few close ones en route to a Region X regular-season title, an Eastern District championship and the first trip to the Junior College World Series in program history.

This year, the tables are turned slightly as the USCS pitching staff is now mostly young and unproven, and the lineup is seemingly the strength of the team. The Fire Ants open up the season on Saturday at home with a doubleheader against Catawba Valley Community College beginning at 1 p.m.

And for the time being, head coach Tim Medlin is counting on the offense to shoulder most of the load for USCS. “All of those position players are a year older and all of them -- as freshmen -- played in Grand Junction (Colo.),” Medlin said. “So we’re looking for all of them to take a step forward this year. We’re probably not going to throw as many shutouts or win as many 2-1 games as we did last year. I hope we do, but we’re probably going to have to score more runs than we did last year.”

The Fire Ants scored 381 runs last

Punter gets career-high 36 as Gamecocks fall to Vols

By STEVE MEGARGEE The Associated Press KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — As soon as he made his first shot of the second half, Tennessee’s Kevin Punter Jr. knew how the rest of his day would go.

Punter scored a career-high 36 points as Tennessee capitalized on sizzling 3-point shooting in the second half for a 78-69 victory over No. 24 South Carolina on Saturday. Punter scored 27 points in the second half, when he shot 5 of 6 from 3-point range and 12 of 12 from the free throw line.

“When I hit the first one, I knew I was feeling it,” Punter said. “I hit the second one, and it was like, ‘It’s over with,’ to be honest with you.”

Punter had the highest point total of any Tennessee player since Ron Slay scored 38 against New Mexico on Jan. 4, 2003.

Tennessee (10-9, 3-4 Southeastern Conference) made its first seven 3-point attempts of the second half, with Punter connecting on four. After going 1 of 9 from 3-point range

NEW YORK — A person familiar with the deal says free agent outfielder Yoenis Cespedes and the New York Mets have agreed to a three-year deal for $75 million.

The slugger, who joined the Mets last July Cespedes and helped lead them to the World Series, can opt out of the contract after one season and make it worth $27.5 million.

The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal was still pending a physical.

Hornets 97 Knicks 84

CHARLOTTE — Jeremy Lin and Kemba Walker scored 26 points each, and the Charlotte Hornets defeated the New York Knicks 97-84 on Saturday night for their third win in the last four games.

Lin and Walker were a combined 19 of 19 from the free-throw line. Charlotte only shot 34 percent from the field, but made 32 of 37 free throws as a team.

Pelicans 116 Bucks 99

NEW ORLEANS — Ryan Anderson scored 23 points and tied a season-high with six 3-pointers, leading the hot-shooting New Orleans Pelicans to a 116-99 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday night.

New Orleans trailed 71-69 after Milwaukee’s Khris Middleton scored 14 points in the first 9 minutes of the third quarter, but the Pelicans re-

McIlroy, Fowler in 5-way tie for lead in Abu Dhabi ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Jordan Spieth paced onto the green and marked one of the six balls on or around the putting surface in near-darkness at the Abu Dhabi Championship on Saturday.

Minutes earlier and on the same 9th hole, Rory McIlroy rummaged in vain through one bush, then another, on some wasteland for an errant ball belonging to his playing partner and then-tournament leader, Andy Sullivan.

Sullivan made a triple-bogey before the horn sounded to suspend play in the third round, to fall out of the lead he’d held all day and leave a five-way tie atop the leaderboard between McIlroy, Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter, Branden Grace and Joost Luiten.

The quintet is on 10-under par.

Elway hired coach Gary Kubiak with the idea that his exteammate would help him transition from the Manning era to whatever comes next.

That a “transition” year has the Broncos a game from the Super Bowl speaks to the roster he built.

“There always is a transition period, because unfortunately, these great quarterbacks get older,” Elway said. “I think we’ve tried to work toward that. We’ve tried, with Gary coming in this year, to be a little more focused on the running game and get a little more balanced to help Peyton out.”

So, instead of some story about a relative newbie making the Super Bowl, as we’ll hear when either Carolina or Arizona makes it in the NFC, this will be a story of franchises that have found a way to stay in the hunt for years, even decades.

NFC championship features 2 vet coaches

By BARRY WILNER The Associated Press

File/The Associated Press

Heisman Trophies and strong arms are among the similarities between Arizona quarterback Carson Palmer, left, and Carolina quarterback Cam Newton. The Cardinals and Panthers meet today in Charlotte in the NFC Championship game.

Newton, Palmer have a few things in common

By STEVE REED The Associated Press CHARLOTTE — Cam Newton and Carson Palmer have a few things in common.

Both were Heisman Trophy winners. Both were No. 1 overall draft picks. And both have strong arms, each throwing for 35 touchdown passes this season while positioning themselves as league MVP candidates. Palmer’s Arizona Cardinals finished the regular season first in offense, while Newton’s Carolina Panthers were No. 1 in points scored.

But that’s about where the similarities end.

Palmer is a pocket passer with a fairly calm demeanor, while Newton is a fun-loving athlete who can beat you with his arm and his feet — no QB in NFL history has run for more TDs — and then let you know it by “dabbing” in the end zone.

On Sunday, the two QBs with similar accolades but varying styles meet when the Panthers host the Cardinals in the NFC Championship game, with a berth in the Super Bowl at stake.

“They are two different styles of quarterbacks,” said Panthers wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr., who has caught passes from both QBs in the last two seasons. “But they both come on the field and play as hard as they can. They both have great arms and can throw the ball and put their teams in position to win.”

Newton enters his first NFC title game with thoughts of

panthers

From Page B1

HEISMANS: This is the first meeting of Heisman Trophywinning quarterbacks in a conference championship.

Palmer won it at Southern California in 2002 and Newton took it at Auburn eight years later.

This has been the best pro season for both of them.

Newton, the All-Pro QB, threw for 35 touchdowns and ran for 10, an unprecedented number for the position.

Palmer has the highest passer rating, 104.6, of any of the four remaining quarterbacks — yes, higher than Hall of Fame-bound Brady and Peyton Manning — and also threw for 35 scores.

The list of Heisman winners at the position who had NFL success has been slim. Consider these names surrounding Palmer’s award: Chris Weinke, Eric Crouch, Jason White and Matt Leinart.

Better to look at the professional pedigree. When healthy, Palmer has been a solid quarterback if not spectacular, and he is a perfect fit for Arians’ schemes in Arizona.

Newton has taken the Pan-

keeping his foot on the gas.

Palmer feels he has something to prove after a shaky performance in the divisional playoffs.

Palmer threw three touchdown passes in Arizona’s 26-20 overtime win over Green Bay last weekend, but he looked nervous and jittery at times in his first career playoff win with two interceptions, some overthrown passes and a series of poor decisions. He cannot afford them against a Carolina defense that forced a

league-high 39 turnovers.

Arizona defensive tackle Calais Campbell said to stop Newton, the Cardinals must first slow down Carolina’s running game.

“His play action game is unbelievable,” Campbell said.

“But that works when you can run the ball for four or five yards a pop. If we can get them for no gains and losses, get some long throwing situations, then you can really pass rush.

But if you can’t do that then you have no chance.”

thers to three straight NFC South titles, something never previously achieved. His skill set can be overwhelming, as is his confidence.

He expects to perform at a high level regardless of the circumstances or pressure.

“I don’t get nervous,” Newton says. “I’ve been playing football too long for me to get nervous. I have dreamed of being in this position.”

WEATHER: A severe winter storm rocked the Carolinas, although conditions should be fine by kickoff, if a bit chilly for Charlotte.

Both teams could turn to the running game if the weather is problematic, which might be an advantage for the Panthers, with Jonathan Stewart over Arizona rookie David Johnson. Stewart’s 59-yard sprint on the first play against Seattle last week catapulted him toward a 106-yard performance and set the tone for a decisive first half.

With solid defenses on both sides — Arizona ranked fifth during the regular season, Carolina sixth — any hangover from the nasty weather could keep the score down.

FITZ VS. JOSH: Josh Norman emerged in 2015 as one of the NFL’s best shutdown corner-

backs. Larry Fitzgerald reemerged as one of the league’s most dangerous receivers this season.

When they match up, it could be the most entertaining and significant battle in the game.

Norman likes to get physical, as his antagonistic showdown with the Giants’ Odell

CHARLOTTE — These guys know how to coach.

So why did it take so long for them to get their own teams?

Between them, Bruce Arians and Ron Rivera have won the last three AP Coach of the Year awards, and they are front-runners for this year’s honor. Arians’ Cardinals (143) and Rivera’s Panthers (161) meet Sunday for the NFC championship, with the winner making his first trip to the Super Bowl as a head coach.

Arians parlayed his work as interim coach of the Colts in 2012 when Chuck Pagano had leukemia into Coach of the Year recognition, then into the Arizona job. Rivera has guided Carolina to three consecutive NFC South titles, something no franchise had managed.

“Bruce has done a tremendous job there, just as he did in Indianapolis and anywhere he has been,” says Tony Dungy, who knows a little bit about coaching winning teams. “And Ron, going from 3-8-1 last season, keeping his composure and staying with the plan and continuing to build the kind of team he wanted — they never lost their focus. They never said they had better change the way they do things.”

Arians’ resume dates back to the 1980s at Alabama, where Bear Bryant still was in charge. His long and winding road took him to several other colleges, and he was the man at Temple from 198388. Arians had two winning records in six seasons with the Owls, then headed to the pros.

In his first stint with the Colts, Arians was quarterback coach from 1998-2000, working with Peyton Manning. His most noteworthy work before rejoining the team in 2012 as offensive coordinator came with the Steelers, who made three Super Bowls and won two in this century with Arians.

But his frank approach eventually helped lead to a strange departure from Pittsburgh, and Arians landed in Indy as OC. One year, one league coaching honor, and he got a top job. At last.

“Any time someone can gain that experience in doing things, it will help,” says Dungy, who worked with Arians for three years in Kansas City. “Bruce had so much experience on a variety of staffs, at Temple he was a head coach where you hear people say they don’t think he could win and he did a

Beckham Jr. showed in December. Fitzgerald doesn’t get intimidated.

“Josh Norman is a premier cornerback,” Fitzgerald says.

“There’s a reason he’s going to be the highest-paid free agent come this offseason. Whatever team he goes to, I hope it’s in the AFC, so we don’t have to deal with him.”

rivera

great job there.

“He is not afraid to be his own man, which is very important. He is kind of like Ron in saying he’ll do what he thinks is best. And he absolutely isn’t afraid of criticism. His players love that because they feel like, ‘He believes in us and is ready to go to the wall for us. So we need to do the same for him.”’

That works in particular when you are winning. Somehow, Arians guided the Cardinals to the playoffs last season despite losing Carson Palmer and backup quarterback Drew Stanton. This year, with a healthier roster, he has many believing Arizona is the NFL’s most-balanced team.

His players and assistants certainly believe in him.

“Bruce, he is a loyal kind of guy. Look at his staff, with former players who played for him going all the way back to Temple,” notes Herm Edwards, who got to know Arians when Edwards was an outstanding cornerback for the Eagles while Edwards was at Temple. “Bruce is an old-time coach, obviously. As much as he says he likes being daring, and he is a guy who will take chances, his foundation is built through the running game and a balanced offense.”

Rivera’s background is defense — and what a defense he was part of. He was a linebacker for the 1985 NFL champion Bears, a unit considered over a span of years as good as any the NFL has seen — so it’s no surprise his current team is so strong at that position with All-Pros Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis.

For Rivera, the long journey included stops in Chicago, Philadelphia and San Diego. He oversaw strong defenses everywhere yet frustratingly failed to land a head-coaching position despite plenty of interviews for the position.

The Panthers hired him in 2011, and while his success in charge wasn’t as immediate as Arians’, it was impressive.

He was given the nickname “Riverboat Ron” along the way, although his gambling tactics might be overblown.

Indeed, his Panthers became too conservative in last Sunday’s win against Seattle after building a 31-0 halftime lead.

The Cardinals will move Fitzgerald around, into the slot at times, and even coming through the backfield as he did on the shovel pass that beat Green Bay in overtime last week. That will put someone else on him at times.

But mostly, it will be the ultra-confident Norman.

ty; in “Once Upon a Mattress,” the citizens are taking no chances on losing Winnifred, whom they’ve come to love — as has Dauntless, to his mother’s dismay.

The musical is filled with

memorable music and plenty of hearty laughs, and while it’s suitable for all ages, Melton said, “The show is geared more toward teenagers and adults, actually. ... (and) The lesson of the story is that ‘royalty’ comes in all shapes, sizes, colors and personalities — the people who look down on others for just being themselves are the usually the ones who are least at peace.”

He added that “All of the actors and crew members are in the Drama Club, but not all are International Honor Thespians of Sumter High Troupe 5054.”

In addition to the actors, he said, “We have students doing lights, sound, props, etc. — all of the technical elements,

which is great training for them.”

In November, the SHS Drama Club won the right to represent South Carolina in the South Eastern Theatre Conference, the largest in the country, Melton said. “We won’t be taking this production, but we are taking ‘Where Have All the Lightning Bugs Gone.’”

Directed by Melton, “Once Upon a Mattress” has musical direction by Jodi Melton and choreography by Fran Glaze and Lexi Melton. Other cast members include Lennon Stewart as the king, Bart Johnson as the Jester, Lauren Memery as the Minstrel, Christian Claybourne as Sir Harry and Ethan Melton as the Wizard.

Wilson Hall REGION SPELLING BEE WINNERS Third-grader Thomas Creech and sixth-grader Lucy Li won the S.C. Independent School Association Regional Spelling Bee for their respective grades and will advance to the state bee. One hundred eight students in grades 3 through 8, representing nine SCISA schools, participated in the regional bee. The bee, hosted by Wilson Hall, was coordinated by Becky Haley and moderated by Scott Warren. As a school, Wilson Hall accumulated the second-highest number of points in the bee.

COMMUNITY SERVICE The Junior Beta Club collected $385 for United Ministries of Sumter. Dianne Sprott is the adviser for the club, and freshman Chandler Patrick is the president. The Hand-in-Hand Club, a community service organization for students in grades 1 through 5 sponsored by the PTO and coordinated by Ashley Watson, collected 2,451 cans, boxes and bags of non-perishable food items to donate to Christian Ministries and United Ministries of Sumter. The students in the leadership class, taught

by Teresa Alexander, collected $710 to purchase Christmas gifts for 26 children residing at John K. Crosswell Home for Children. The Spanish Club raised $150 by selling snacks during morning break to donate to the victims of Hurricane Patricia in Mexico. Annalie Savon is the club’s adviser, and senior Betsy Cunningham is the president. The student council sponsored the Warm Feet, Happy Hearts program that collected more than 175 pair of new socks for United Ministries of Sumter. Cynthia Tavarez coordinated the project. The Student Council president is senior Leah Barwick, and the advisers are Heather Eldridge, Sean Hoskins and Cheryl Landstrom.

DUKE TIP Fifty-six percent of the seventh grade qualified for participation in the Duke University Talent Identification Program. To qualify students must score in the 95th percentile or higher on the national norms of a grade-level standardized achievement, aptitude, mental ability or an approved state criterionreferenced test. Wilson Hall uses the Stanford Achievement Test. The program identifies academically talented seventh-graders based on standardized test scores achieved while attending elementary or middle school. These students are invited to complete either the SAT Reasoning Test or the ACT Assessment college entrance examinations. Duke TIP then provides the participants with comparative information concerning their academic abilities and resources for unique educational opportunities.

TEACHERS OF THE YEAR The following faculty members were selected by their peers as the Wilson Hall Teachers of the Year: lower school, Tammie Amick, a fourth-grade teacher; middle school, Mollie McDuffie, an English teacher; and upper school, Carmen McCaffrey, a math teacher. — Sean Hoskins

Sumter School District BATES MIDDLE BEGINS PROGRAM Bates Middle School and Principal Dr. Ayesha Hunter kicked off the Building Bridges: An Intergenerational Program on Jan. 13. The group of students and adults will meet monthly to bring together people of different generations to share their talents and knowledge while supporting each other.

Hunter welcomed the group and introduced guest of honor Dorothy Hopkins. She said Hopkins, the grandmother of a Bates student, was visiting the school one day, and as the two were talking, Hunter realized that there “is really nothing new under the sun.” She said it occurred to her that although times have changed, young people are still dealing with the same challenges, pressures and issues they dealt with generations ago. It was at that moment the idea for this program was born.

While meeting and getting to know one another, the goal is to form relationships that will benefit individuals and the community. Hunter reminded the group, “Wisdom always comes through a story and an unforgettable journey.” Through activities the students and community leaders participated in during the first session, the two groups shared with each other through the written and spoken word and have already realized many things

they had in common. Although they may use different words or actions to express themselves, they all want the same things and face the same struggles.

In the initial letter to the adult participants, Hunter emphasized, “Come and share your experiences, your passion for education and children, and most of all your stories. Our children need to know that we understand their struggles and that they are not alone.

Our goals are not only to increase social awareness, but to also increase students’ desire to read and write effectively and share life experiences.”

Community partners and guests at the first meeting included Rep. David Weeks, D-Sumter, a member of the S.C. House of Representatives and Sumter attorney; Dr. Barbara Jackson and Lucille McQuilla, retired educators and members of the Sumter School District Board of Trustees; J. Frank Baker, Sumter School District superintendent; Dr. Cornelius Leach, assistant superintendent for instruction; Dr. Zona Jefferson, retired superintendent of former Sumter School District 17; Keith Britton, University of South Carolina Sumter; Flora Gadson, Mount Olive AME Church; Napoleon Bradford, Jehovah Missionary Baptist Church; Jean Gray, retired educator at USC Sumter; the Rev. Dr. Betty Deas Clark, Mount Pisgah AME Church; and Chuck Wilson, Universal Benefits Inc. In addition to Hunter, also involved in the development and coordination of the program are O’Lita Nahooikaika, receptionist, and Gayle Wilson, English language arts and English I teacher.

Lee County School District BISHOPVILLE PRIMARY SCHOOL

GOINGS NAMED STAR TEACHER Corelle Goings of Furman Middle School was named the Star Teacher of the Month for January. Goings teaches Algebra I and eighth-grade math and was nominated for the recognition by a record 33 students.

The Star Teacher of the Month was created by Community Broadcasters and is also sponsored by Staples and Flowers & Baskets Florist. One teacher is chosen monthly by his or her students. Goings and Superintendent Baker appeared on the Good Morning Sumter show with host Derek Burress.

Goings is a graduate of Manning High School and Morris College. She has been at Furman Middle School for 10 years and uses a variety of methods to reach her students. She told the morning audience she gets to know her students and relates examples to things or activities in which they have an interest. If a student loves to shop or participates in sports, she incorporates those interests into her teaching.

Baker said Sumter School District is very proud of Goings and the progress she is making with her students. He cited her test scores and student academic growth as two measures of her overall success as a teacher.

In addition to the students’ nominations, her principal Michael Riggins added, “Ms. Goings truly cares enough about the students to be prepared each day and to provide lessons that engage the students. Her efforts have resulted in student academic growth in math.

She is a team player and always displays a positive attitude. She provides tutoring every morning to any student who needs it. She is an asset to Furman Middle School. She is truly a STAR teacher.”

Sumter School District appreciates the support of Community Broadcasters and the two sponsors for recognizing our teachers and supporting the public school system in our community. Both Staples and Flowers & Baskets Florist present the monthly winner with a prize.

to attend school beyond high school, and she thinks their performance on the COMPASS could be a valuable asset to them and the counseling staff as students prepare for some form of college. Junior Tymir Tindal stated that he was pleased that he took the COMPASS because it allowed him to think seriously about college and the important next steps that he must undertake. He also said the COMPASS is a tool that can open doors to students who are thinking seriously about their future. Latrell Mitchell, a junior who is interested in human services, said she realizes that the COMPASS assessment might just be the thing she needs to help open the doors to her future in her area of interest. — Beverly Spry

Gavin Hopkins, a third-grader at Bishopville Primary School, demonstrates how his homemade guitar works.

It is never too early to inspire young musicians as Katie Brabham will tell you. Brabham, the music teacher at Bishopville Primary School, is teaching children in all grades about musical notes and rests, rhythm and musical instruments. Even 4-year-old kindergarteners get to experience the excitement of playing instruments such as xylophones and drums. Students are highly engaged and learn the basis of fractions as they learn about the count for different notes and rests.

On another musical note, third-graders are using shoe boxes, rubber bands, paper towel tubes and other materials to create guitars as they study sound and vibrations. Students learn how the size and shape of the box affects the sound produced by their homemade instrument, as well as the thickness and tautness of their rubber bands.

Paula Watson, interim principal at Bishopville Primary School, visited a 4-year-old classroom to discuss how clothes are made. She showed them different types of fabric, patterns and how people use the patterns to make clothing. This demonstration provided a real-life component to the class’ study of clothing.

Convenient location, variety of options great for community

S

umterites shopping for the perfect pageant gown, prom dress or tuxedo do not have to travel farther than All Dressed Up on Bultman Drive.

Store owner Pat Hill said the business started as a way to provide gowns for her youngest granddaughter who competes in beauty pageants.

Before the store front at 577 Bultman Drive, Suite 1B, Pat and her daughter-in-law, Melanie Hill, operated the business at home for three-anda-half years. Pat said it was convenient to order the gowns themselves rather than travel around.

In March 2015, the Hills opened All Dressed Up to offer the same convenience to other families in the community.

“I like dressing people up,” said store manager Melanie Hill.

Melanie added that along with a close location, shoppers can find formal wear for reasonable prices, which is not always the case, especially for pageant gowns. The store also offers bridesmaid dresses and bridal gowns.

Pat said pageant gowns and tuxedos can be rented, but prom dresses must be purchased because of the dancing and festivities of the evening.

“We also offer layaway,” Melanie said.

All Dressed Up carries dresses for

All Dressed Up on Bultman Drive offers prom dresses and tuxedos, such as those seen left, as well as pageant gowns. Jewelry, such as the earrings above, and other accessories are also available.

everyone from newborns up to size 40.

Melanie said the store has an exclusive partnership with a plus-size clothing vendor.

“We try to have something for everybody’s shape,” she said.

Melanie said she understands that it may be a hassle for some women to find gowns in their size so she and Pat wanted to make sure everyone has a

positive shopping experience.

If shoppers do not see the perfect gown for them on the racks, one can be ordered from catalogs available in the store.

“I just want every girl to have the perfect gown for when she goes to prom or a pageant,” Melanie said.

She also said 5 percent of each purchase will be donated to the student’s school.

And, customers will receive a complimentary photo session with MVIII Photography of Sumter with every gown purchased.

“We also register gowns for pageants so no one else can order the same gown from us,” Melanie said.

“That way everyone gets to be in the spotlight.”

Pat and Melanie said the store also carries gowns with simple styles and a little less flash, and “daddy-approved” gowns that have a more conservative style.

The store carries “blinged-up” accessories to add an extra pop to the gowns, too, Pat said. Shoppers can also find jewelry, undergarments, belts and shoes.

Pat said she and Melanie are also thinking of bringing in formal wear for mothers of the bride and grandmothers.

Although the store mostly carries gowns, Melanie said she enjoys dressing up the guys just as much. All Dressed Up offers designer tuxedos including styles from Michael Kors, Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren.

Melanie, a nationally certified make-up artist, can do make up for special events and provide pageant coaching by appointment.

All Dressed Up is open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and other times by appointment.

For more information, call the store at (803) 77DRESS, (773-7377), or Melanie Hill at (803) 316-3570.

Cheap oil, good for consumers, is slamming stocks. Why?

BY KEN SWEET AND DAVID KOENIG AP Business Writers NEW YORK — Wall Street is drowning in oil.

Stocks are having their worst start to a year in history in part because of a rapid plunge in the price of oil.

The price of crude is down 28 percent this year already, which in turn has dragged down energy company shares in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index by 13 percent, which has helped pull the overall index down 9 percent.

This even though low oil prices — and the cheap prices for gasoline and other fuels that result — are wonderful for consumers and many companies.

“It seems ironic that in the run-up to the global financial

crisis we were worried about oil prices being too high in 2007 and 2008. Now we’re worried about them being too low,” said Julian Jessop, head of commodities research with London-based researchers Capital Economics Ltd. The drastic drop in oil and stock prices stands in contrast with a U.S. economy that, on the whole, is doing pretty well.

U.S employers created 292,000 jobs in December, and few economists see the economy sliding into recession.

WHY IS OIL SO LOW? Because there is so much of it. A long run of high oil prices inspired drillers to develop new techniques and to go to new places to find more oil, and they succeeded.

In the U.S. improved oil

drilling technologies known generally as fracking have added more oil to the global market than the total production of any other nation in OPEC other than Saudi Arabia.

Producers in the U.S. and abroad haven’t cut back production very much, despite the low prices, and now the lifting of international sanctions against Iran could send more oil flowing into markets that are already awash in crude.

U.S. stockpiles are at their highest level in at least 80 years, and the International Energy Agency predicts that during the first half of this year global oil supply could outstrip demand by 1.5 million barrels per day.

Demand for crude has been growing steadily, but that may

not last because economic growth in China, the world’s second-largest oil consumer after the U.S., is slowing.

WHY DO LOW OIL PRICES HURT THE STOCK MARKET? Oil company profits are plummeting, so oil company shares are plummeting, and that is dragging down the whole market.

Analysts estimate that profit for all S&P 500 companies in total are on track to be down a recession-like 5.8 percent for 2015.

But if energy companies were removed from that figure, S&P 500 profits would be up a very healthy 5.7 percent for the full year.

That profit drop directly leads to lower share prices that drag down entire indexes.

Two of the biggest oil com-

panies in the world, Exxon and Chevron, are part of the 30-member Dow Jones industrial average.

Of the 20 biggest share price losers in the S&P 500 this year, 13 are energy companies.

Investors are also selling shares of companies that may have exposure to the oil industry, like certain banks.

And the price of oil has now fallen so low that investors are also worried that it could mean global economic growth is much weaker than expected, which could hurt all companies.

“In the long run, lower oil prices should be positive or at worst neutral for the world economy because all they’re really doing is transferring income from oil producers to oil consumers,” Jessop said.

THE SUMTER ITEM

Call the newsroom at: (803) 774-1225 | E-mail: trevor@theitem.com

Hunting wood ducks in flooded timber T he woods were dark, and our flashlights illuminated a narrow path through the flooded timber. We bumped into submerged logs and limbs, almost feeling our way. My son, Clayton, and I were wading carefully through the thigh-deep water.

The ground was firm, which made the wading somewhat easier. But believe me, the last thing you want to do is trip, and take a plunge into the icy cold water.

Keeping our eyes focused on the water ahead, and on our direction of travel, we moved along slowly and steadily.

With the flashlights you could point straight down and see the leaves and twigs that covered the bottom. The water looked perfectly clear. But, if you pointed the light forward, the surface of the water was an inky black mirror of the surrounding hardwood trees and brush.

We had met at the property at 6 a.m. My brother, Matt, was supposed to meet up with us, but didn’t show. We didn’t have time to wait on him, so we put on our waders and headed into the timber. Daylight was not far away. Most wood duck hunts are just a brief flurry of activity at daybreak, and we needed to get into position.

The woods are a natural depression, a pocosin or Carolina bay that is heavily tim-

bered in gum, maple, cypress and bay trees. There are oaks and other hardwoods on the edges of the bay, and a Dan few pond Geddings pines are scattered OUTDOORS throughout.

Some years are dry and the bay doesn’t flood. Some years we don’t get enough rain to flood the bay until late in the duck season. But, some years are wet and we have water. This year we’ve had plenty of water, and plenty of ducks.

We could hear ducks on the water ahead, whistling and squealing alarm calls.

We knew from previous hunts that they would probably stay on the water and swim out of our way in the dark woods, as long as we didn’t press them. We stopped, turned off the lights, and discussed our plan in whispered voices.

Clayton would head to the western side of the bay, and I would go on straight to the back. That way if Matt showed up he could stop just inside the woods, and we would have the timber hole covered.

It was getting light enough now to see without the flash-

The world was waking up, and there was a faint glow toward the eastern horizon. I found a good opening in the canopy and stopped. I could hear wings whispering overhead as some woodies passed over the treetops.

Off in the distance I heard some gunshots, and I looked at my watch. It was around 7.

Legal time. I could hear ducks

Wateree Preserve reopens Monday

flushing from the timber behind me. Then, Clayton shot.

Boom — pause — splash. He got one! I couldn’t see him or the ducks through the timber, but I could hear it happen.

At that moment, I just happened to look to my left and saw two ducks twisting and turning down through the trees right toward me. Reflexes took over and I snapped up my gun, pointed and pulled the trigger, all in one motion.

Photo contest deadline draws near FROM STAFF REPORTS

BY JIM HILLEY jim@theitem.com South Carolina Department of Natural Resources is reopening the Wateree River Heritage Preserve/Wildlife Management Area on Monday. The property was closed in October 2015 because of flooding damage to repair access roads.

The main road systems on the property have been repaired, allowing the public to access the property. Wateree River HP/ WMA is open to public use during daylight hours. Visitors are encouraged to study maps and determine boundaries on the new property. Kiosks are in place at the entrance to guide public use.

Wateree River HP/WMA was acquired

by S.C. DNR through a partial mitigation agreement with Haile Gold Mine for a mining operation that was permitted in Lancaster County. The area is a 3,674-acre tract of land located 17 miles east of Columbia on U.S. 378 near the Eastover community. The property is bordered by the Wateree River and is on the RichlandSumter county line, with all of the land area in Richland County.

To access WRHP, travel U.S. 76/378 from Sumter toward Columbia. 12.1 miles past the intersection with S.C. 261, turn left onto Goodwill Road. Follow turns marked by signs to the parking area and the information kiosk.

At the shot, one duck folded and the other flared overhead.

I blasted two wasted shots in its general direction, blowing twigs and small limbs out of the trees overhead.

I eased over to the duck that had splashed down just yards away. It was a wood duck drake. I lifted him from the water and marveled at the beautiful iridescent colors.

They are absolutely magnificent. He was still warm, and his feathers were soft to my hand.

More gunshots off in the distance brought me back to the business at hand, and I quickly reloaded. Clayton was also shooting again. Pairs and small flocks passed by high overhead and pitched down through the trees between us.

A single drake came by calling with its soft whistle, then cupped up and pitched down through the trees to the black water below. I could have, but didn’t shoot.

To the east a coppery yellow sun was pushing up from the horizon, twinkling bright light through the hardwood timber. By sunrise it was over.

The sky was empty, and the ducks were settled in somewhere for the day.

I started back through the flooded woods and heard Clayton wading in my direction. We met at the edge of the bay, where we sat and talked about the hunt. It had been a good morning.

FISHING REPORTS Freshwater Report Midlands area 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.

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 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 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.

South Carolina freshwater recreational fishing regulations: http://www.dnr.sc.gov/fishregs/index. html January 21, 2016 DNR News (803) 667-0696 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.

New Superhero Series Explores Time Sunday, January 24 - 30, 2016

www.theitem.com

Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) is determined to make history on “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” airing Thursday at 8 p.m. on The CW.

By Candace Havens FYI Television The superhero universe is growing on The CW with the addition of “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” (Thursday, 8 p.m.), starring Brandon Routh (The Atom), Arthur Darvill (Rip Hunter), Wentworth Miller (Captain Cold), Dominic Purcell (Heat Wave), Caity Lotz (White Canary), Ciara Renée (Hawkgirl) and Carter Hall (Hawkman). Victor Garber and Franz Drameh also appear as the fused-together “nuclear man” Firestorm. Time Master Rip Hunter has assembled this eclectic team of heroes and villains to fight the evil immortal Vandal Savage (Casper Crump).

This is a new vision for the characters separate from the way they’ve been portrayed in the DC comics. “All the characters are part of the comic books, but they’ve never been incorporated in this way,” says executive producer Andrew Kreisberg (“Arrow,” “The Flash”). “They’ve never been a team before. But the characters Rip Hunter, Vandal Savage, the Atom, Heat Wave, Captain Cold, they’ve all been scattered throughout the comics in different ways. And I think what’s interesting about the show is that we’ve taken these disparate individual characters, who have never ever been part of a team, like ‘The Justice League,’ and we’ve turned them into a team. So, there isn’t a specific comic book called ‘Legends of Tomorrow.’

The show and the title came from us.”

The initial idea for the show came from CW president Mark Pedowitz, who had an idea to use secondary characters from some of The CW’s shows in a heroes-versus-villains

series. Greg Berlanti (“Arrow,” “Flash,” “Supergirl”) and the other executive producers took that and morphed it into a different kind of superhero drama.

“We knew once we had the character, Rip Hunter, that we definitely wanted to not just have him – we wanted this group together,” says Berlanti. “They’re all great actors who we wanted to keep working with and telling these stories. We wanted a central narrative. And once we decided that Rip Hunter would be in the show, we knew that time travel could be a part of the show. If my memory serves, Rip Hunter (first appearing in 1959) actually predates, I believe, ‘Doctor Who’ (1963). It goes a ways back.

“So, we knew there would be that element; those things would be compared and contrasted, but that was just a fun and exciting thing to us,” Berlanti continues. “The notion of putting this particular group of characters on a time machine, that notion was a lot of fun.”

For the record, Darvill, who played Rory on “Dr. Who,” knows a bit about being a Time Lord, and he is often the one who brings the humor. While they have serious work to do, the set is often light in tone – more of a “Guardians of the Galaxy” kind of vibe. “It’s fun, because Rip Hunter, as a Time Master, spent all these years moving through time, correcting the timeline,” says executive producer Phil Klemmer. “This is the first time since he is on his own personal crusade to save the future and save his family, that he recruits this motley crew of people. And, to me, there is a sort

of domestic dramedy aspect of the show, because he is having to share his time traveling spaceship with this disparate band of knuckleheads.

“It’s like herding cats,” Klemmer says, “and he was trained to be Time Master, which is the most sacred and noble charge in the universe, where you’re supposed to make these little surgical changes that don’t disrupt it.

And our guys, I mean, [Heat Wave], for instance, not to single anyone out, is just like a bull in a china shop. He couldn’t care less about the future.

And the fun comes from these people not just trying to pull together to save the world, but having to exist on a spaceship together. And, to me, that’s some of the most fun. It’s like the most dysfunctional family you can imagine. I can relate to that.”

There are more superhero shows on the air than ever, but the producers don’t believe television has reached a saturation point yet. “I think it’s just like the comics,” says Geoff Johns, chief creative officer, DC Entertainment. “There are hundreds and hundreds of comic books published every month, and there have been for decades and decades. And each one of them has a different theme, a different world, a different tone.

Some are leads who work as solo characters. Some are teams. But the ones that really survive are all about something different, and they have different worlds to explore and emotional underpinnings that are metaphors for real life. That’s what superheroes are. They’re metaphors for the stories and the experiences that we go through. The metaphor for this show is destiny. It’s all about, is my life going to matter?”
