Locals sound off on Voting Rights Act change Area residents discuss past, current difficulties for minorities

BY ROBERT J. BAKER bbaker@theitem.com The U.S. Supreme Court’s invalidation of a key section of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 earlier this week was a tough blow for many local civil rights activists concerned about the treatment of minority voters.

But for Dr. Brenda Williams and The Family Unit Inc., the decision handed down Tuesday was a call to action.

“We feel that it was a cowardly stance that the Supreme Court justices took, and of course we are disappointed in the decision,” Williams said Friday. “We know that, yes, there have been some

advances toward civil and human rights in this country, and we thank God for that. But now even more we know our job has not ended.”

Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the 5-4 decision for the court, which rendered useless Section 4 of the law establishing a “coverage formula” to determine which states and local governments fall under Section 5. That portion of the law requires all or part of 15 states with a history of voting discrimination against blacks, Native Americans and Hispanics to get U.S. Department of Justice approval before changing local election laws.

The court then advised Con-

gress that the entire law could only be enforced when a new coverage formula is devised.

“I see that as a copout,” said Family Unit Inc. board member Lottie Spencer, who has been helping register voters for more than 40 years. “When you don’t stand for something and want to put it back on someone else, that’s a copout. That means, ‘You can’t blame me because I put it in the hand of somebody else.’

They don’t understand that we have been there. We have been through rougher and harder times than this. And we ain’t going back.”

The Family Unit Inc. President and founder Dr. Brenda Williams, right, and board member Lottie Spencer believe the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision handed down Tuesday on the Voting Rights Act of 1965 is a new calling to register even more low-poverty, minority voters for what they SEE RIGHTS, PAGE A5 called “the coming storm.”

Paxville man heals others with butterflies

BY ROB COTTINGHAM rcottingham@theitem.com Historically, man has learned to raise, cultivate and domesticate many of Earth’s creatures. If a list were to be made, it would be apparent there’s no limit to the kinds of creatures raised for profit or as a hobby.

In Bill Robinson’s case, it was a hobby that became a small business.

He also chose one of nature’s most delicate inhabitants.

Robinson, a resident of the Paxville community, spends his free time raising butterflies — monarch butterflies, to be exact — and sells them.

“You’d be surprised just how in demand they are,” he said. “I get orders from all over the country for them.”

Monarch butterflies are incredibly high maintenance, requiring a lot of work and patience. The well-being of each and every one of the insects demands one-on-one attention, and as taxing as it might seem, Robinson devotes much of his time to his livestock with ease.

Having an emotional connection to the concept seems to overrule any frustration.

The project has always had a sentimental connection for Robinson, who began raising butterflies for his wife,,

Tracey had anger issues all her life.

As an adult, that aggression got her in trouble with the law and landed her in the Batterer’s Intervention Program — a 26-week, state Department of Social Services certified course for men and women who are perpetrators of domestic violence. Tracey’s full name is being withheld to protect her identity.

“God sent the YWCA and my pastor to me,” the 31-year-old said. “The staff and pastor were tag-team‘I didn’t realize ing my spirit.

The first problem to overcome is the underreporting of battery.

“Men don’t want to report their wife or girlfriend beat them up,” said Bernice Montgomery, domestic violence facilitator for the YWCA. “Women are afraid to report because of what might happen to their status.

They may be kicked out of the house or lose money. They don’t want to lose their children, or the system has failed them before.”

Sometimes, a person who has been a longtime victim snaps and acts out violently, she said. Then that individual is the one who is arrested.

“They feel victimized all over again,” Montgomery said.

Battery is not limited to physical assaults.

Officials step up enforcement for holiday traffic

BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com Halfway through the “100 Deadly Days of Summer,” officers are optimistic about road safety in South Carolina.

So far this year, the state has seen a decline in the number of traffic fatalities on its roadways. In 2013 to date, 330 people have died in traffic accidents statewide, down from 406 at this time last year. If law enforcement can maintain that rate through the end of the year, they hope to significantly reduce the fatality rate of 865 in 2012.

“Our goal is zero fatalities,” said Lance Cpl. Brent Kelly with the South Carolina Highway Patrol.

To reach that goal, drivers will see stepped-up enforcement around the Fourth of July, as state and local law enforcement will increase their regular number of patrols and checkpoints

around the Sumter area throughout the week of the holiday.

Kelly said Highway Patrol will begin a stepped-up enforcement weekend at 6 p.m. Wednesday to catch traffic traveling for the holiday. It will continue until midnight July 7.

“That’s a total of 102 hours,” Kelly said.

“We’re going to be doing DUI (driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs) saturation. You’ll see more patrols, more traffic checkpoints and more seatbelt checks during the daytime and nighttime hours.”

Every year, Highway Patrol steps up enforcement throughout the “deadly days” of summer, and increased traffic around major holidays is always a concern. Local agencies likewise are stepping up enforcement in advance of the holiday.

The Sumter County Sheriff’s Office will be partnering with Highway Patrol over July 4

to set up checkpoints around the county.

“We’re especially focused on major highways, (U.S.) 378, 15, 521. That’s where you’ll see more patrol cars,” said Sheriff Anthony Dennis.

Dennis said his deputies’ focus will be on DUI enforcement, trying to reduce the county’s number of drunken driving deaths. “Hopefully our presence will deter it,” the sheriff said. “We don’t want

anybody driving under the influence, and we really don’t want any DUI fatalities.”

Kelly highlighted roadways leading to and from the area’s lakes as area troopers will search for drinkers on the highway and encouraged anyone who knows they will be drinking to plan ahead and designate a driver or plan not to drive back after having a few beers.

Sumter Police Chief Russell Roark said his officers will actually begin stepped-up enforcement this weekend, before the holiday gets underway.

“Historically, when the holiday is in the middle of the week, our idea is to increase our presence beforehand,” Roark said. “We’ll see more traffic this weekend because we’re a causeway to the beach.”

Police officers will be setting up patrols on

the city’s major thoroughfares and checkpoints in areas where they have received a high number of complaints from residents.

Officers also used this weekend for “warrant saturation,” seeking out suspects with outstanding arrest warrants.

Seatbelts are a special focus of the Highway Patrol this year because numbers show a declining rate of compliance, especially at night. State records show 47 percent of those killed in daytime wrecks are not wearing a seatbelt, but the number jumps to 73 percent once it gets dark.

“Compliance during the daytime is pretty good, but at nighttime, it diminishes because they think we can’t see them,” said 1st Sgt. B.K. Floyd, post commander for the Sumter/Clarendon Highway Patrol area.

That’s an unfortunate mistake, patrolmen say, because the dangers facing drivers also go up at night.

“You have low visibility and more impaired drivers on the road,” Kelly said.

Troopers are not only focusing on motorists, but also pedestrians and bicyclists to make sure they don’t contribute to any wrecks.

“We’ve seen a lot of pedestrian and bicycle fatalities,” Floyd said.

“So I try to stop and speak with foot traffic and let them know they’re not doing anything wrong, but just to be aware of where they’re walking.”

Anyone who notices any problems on the road this week, whether reckless driving, disabled vehicle or wrecks, is asked to dial *HP (*47) to contact Highway Patrol for assistance.

JAMES CLINTON ‘J.C.’ BRITTON JR. ✦ 1934 - 2013

Former Post 68 coach, supporter remembered as mentor to youth MANNING — ManningSantee American Legion Post 68 lost a dear friend, mentor and patron Thursday evening when James Clinton “J.C.” Britton, 78, died at his home, surrounded by family and close friends.

Rarely a game passed without “Mr. J.C.” watching Post 68 play from his spot in the bleachers as BRITTON he ate boiled peanuts, returned greetings to current and former players and encouraged his team to win.

“He’s going to be missed,” said Post 68 Coach G.G. Cutter. “He resurrected the American Legion program in Manning, and he was always a stout supporter of American Legion baseball.”

Because of Britton’s failing health, Cutter said he listened to Wednesday night’s game from his home in Manning.

“His grandson Nick (Gibbons) was pitching, and he was pitching well,” Cutter said. “Mr. J.C.’s son-in-law Steve Belangia told me he asked him if he listened to the game, and he responded that he did.”

William “Bill” Brewer has been associated with Post 68 since the late ’70s.

“No one will ever know what a big job he did for the team,” Brewer said Friday morning. “J.C. did more than his part by giving so much of his time, effort and money to the youth of Clarendon County. He always made sure that those who did not have had the same chances as those that had. I will never forget him.”

Britton, a member of Manning’s 1950 American Legion team, was a successful Little League baseball coach and girls’ and boys’ basketball coach.

Britton’s passion was base-

ball. In the mid-1960s, Manning didn’t have an American Legion team. Britton changed that. In 1966, Britton organized and coached the town’s first American Legion team and remained Post 68’s coach for 12 years.

Although he handed the reins of his team to someone else, his love for the game and Post 68 never wavered. He continued to support the team as a mentor and financial supporter.

Britton supported athletics for all the youth in Clarendon County. He donated the land and was instrumental in building an athletic park off Raccoon Road that now bears his name — the J.C. Britton Park.

Britton was inducted into the 2012 Clarendon County Athletic Hall of Fame, a tribute that he treasured.

“Sports has always been a part of my life, both as a player and a coach,” Britton was

quoted as having said in the banquet’s program. “My dream was for all the youth of Clarendon County to have both a venue and a team to represent our community.

Thanks to all that helped make this dream possible and for continuing that commitment today.”

Britton’s daughter, Kim Belangia, knew firsthand how much her father loved baseball.

“I was blessed to have witnessed your untiring love of the game, the boys who played for you and the community that you have worked and lived in all your life,” she wrote in the Hall of Fame program. “From the late nights that you would have to drive players home to the numerous family vacations you missed due to baseball, we all understood that this was very important to you. Thank you for setting such a wonderful example for so many. You

have always been a Hall-ofFamer to me.”

A.C. English honored his friend at the Hall of Fame ceremony.

“I didn’t know he scoured the countryside looking for ballplayers,” English said. “Before I knew it, three players from Moncks Corner were living in my home during the week. (English’s wife) Ann washed uniforms and got an education in feeding teenage boys. I shudder to think how much of his own money was spent buying uniforms, balls, bats, equipment, paying umpires, feeding the team and arranging transportation to games. Money wasn’t the only thing that J.C. spent. He devoted countless hours of his time to a game that he loved.”

Funeral services for Britton will be held at 3 p.m. today at Manning First Baptist Church with burial following in the Manning Cemetery.

S.C. officials say be wary of small schools of fish CHARLESTON (AP) — Officials in South Carolina said it’s not the sharks that coastal swimmers need to look out for but instead what the sharks eat.

The Post and Courier of Charleston reports that Mel Bell of the Office and Fisheries Management for the S.C. Department of Natural Resources said most of the sharks along Lowcountry shores are small, coastal sharks. He said most bites result from small sharks mistaking an arm or a leg for food.

“Sharks are always there,” Bell said.

“Keep in mind it’s the ocean and not a swimming pool. That’s where these animals live. Be aware, and avoid them as best as you can.”

A boy was bitten off Kiawah Island last Tuesday. EMS received the call at 12:45 p.m.

“In comparison to most shark bites, it was a minor wound,” Charleston County EMS Director Don Lundy said at the time. He was “very stable” on the way to the hospital and “fine otherwise,” Lundy said.

Lifeguards had the wound dressed by the time the first emergency crews arrived, according to the St. Johns Fire Department.

There has not been a fatal shark bite in South Carolina since the 1800s.

Bell advises beachgoers to watch for schools of fish because they’re what the small sharks want. He also urges people to stay in shallow water, and to avoid swimming early in the morning or late at night, when sharks are likely to be feeding.

Sharks are also attracted to shiny objects, so avoid wearing jewelry in the water.

Civilian furloughs will impact S.C. economy by millions of dollars

BY JEFF WILKINSON jwilkinson@thestate.com Marvin D. Mervin spent 20 years in the Army fixing and maintaining all kinds of military vehicles, from tanks to trucks. Seven years ago, he took off the uniform and became a civilian mechanic working on vehicles at Fort Jackson.

On July 8, Mervin and about 11,400 other civilian workers on the state’s five military bases will have to take one day off each week without pay for 11 week because of across-the-board cuts caused by last August’s debt ceiling deadlock in Congress.

This year’s furloughs represent 20 percent of Mervin’s pay through Sept.

30, and he expects more furloughs in the next fiscal

year. The 45-year-old father of four said that is going to have a big effect on his monthly budget. “You have to cut back on your spending,’’ he said. “Do you want to go out to eat? That’s a luxury now.

You just have to budget 20 percent less.’’ The military pumps $16 billion into South Carolina’s economy each year, according to the S.C. Department of Commerce. And the across-the-board cuts caused by last year’s debt ceiling debacle are going to have a ripple effect, particularly in the state’s four main military communities — Columbia, Sumter, Charleston and Beaufort — said Ike McLeese, chief executive of the Greater Columbia Chamber of Commerce, who also serves as one of

YWCA from Page A1 Montgomery said. “I can punch you in the arm, and you’ll bruise, but you will heal. With emotional and verbal, you think about it over and over. ‘I’m nothing.

I’m nobody. I’ve never been anybody.’�

Men and women meet separately once a week. Montgomery has worked with men ages 21 to 71 and women ages 23 to 55, she said.

She’s seen Hispanic, white and black as well as people living in various socioeconomic conditions. They may be referred through legal channels or volunteer to take the program.

In small groups, the participants examine what led them there. “I didn’t realize I was the aggressor, the abuser,� Tracey said. “My mom and dad did it, (but) I didn’t know it was generational. Rage was the norm. I didn’t realize when I’m angry and yelling, my children are learning my tone and how to treat their spouse. What if it was an emergency? They are so used to me yelling, they could be like, ‘Aw. That’s just mom.’ The idea of putting my children in harm’s way really touched me.�

She has an 11-yearold daughter and a 6-year-old son. “I was in denial,�

Tracey said. “It hurt so bad, (but) it was worth it to admit my faults.

We all make mistakes.

Now I know who I am

and who I want to be.�

The program also has participants examine triggers. “I’ll ask the men, ‘What about her sets you off?,’� Montgomery said. “Is it what she says, the way she says it or how she acts? It has to be something. What was it?� “Anger is OK. It’s how you handle it. You have to recognize you are becoming angry. Are your eyes twitching? Do your palms get sweaty?�

They then learn better ways to communicate such as speaking respectfully and using Istatements instead of blaming the other person, she said. “If you’re not taught, you don’t do better,�

Montgomery said. “It’s like taking them from their childhood up.�

Exercises include role playing, videos and worksheets. Tracey said she learned about walking away from arguments and not wasting energy getting angry.

She also learned about the releasing power of forgiveness, Tracey said.

A lot of knowledge is gained from sharing within the group, too. “In the beginning, they may be angry, but by the middle of the term, they unwind,�

Montgomery said. “The girls become best friends and support each other.�

Tracey agreed. “We became one big family,� she said. “We

the state’s civilian aides to the secretary of the Army. “It’s already begun to have an impact,’’ he said. “A lot of those people are minimum wage, and they aren’t going out to eat. They aren’t going to the movies.’’ Fort Jackson has 3,500 civilian workers who collectively are paid $51 million annually. The 20 percent furlough for the remainder of the fiscal year means those workers will have $2.55 million less to spend on gas, food, entertainment and other commodities.

Shaw Air Force Base in Sumter employs an additional 1,340 civilian workers with a payroll of $59 million. The furloughs will cost Sumter’s local economy $2.95 million this year.

McLeese blamed Congress for forcing the Penta-

cried. We laughed a lot, too. There were a lot of emotions.�

The men can get emotional, too, Montgomery said. A few cried after she shared videos of South Carolina females who died as

gon to make across-theboard cuts as part of the budget ax that dropped after lawmakers could not reach a compromise during last year’s debt-ceiling debate. “That’s no way to run a government,’’ he said.

FURTHER CUTS AHEAD

The furloughs are part of the automatic spending cuts — called the sequester — that took effect March 1.

The military furloughs are expected to save about $2.5 billion this year.

Initially, the Pentagon had mandated 22 furlough days, but thanks to military appropriations in a continuing budget resolution passed by Congress in May, the number was reduced to 11 days.

The resolution averted

a result of dating violence. “It showed them how quickly and how easily this can happen,� Montgomery said. “I asked them what if this was their mother, sister or child.

about $6 billion in cuts that would have been required by the sequester.

But the military still faces about $500 billion in acrossthe-board cuts over the next 10 years unless Congress and the president can find an alternative. The cuts come on top of $487 billion in reductions already targeted by the Pentagon — together equaling about 18 percent of the 2012 defense budget. “This is a double whammy and will have a big impact on our communities,’’ said Bill Bethea of Bluffton, chairman of the S.C. Military Base Task Force. Gov. Nikki Haley appoints the task force to protect and expand missions at the state’s six military bases and support its defense contractors and S.C. National Guard.

It surprised them.�

The initial assessment cost is $25, and it’s $20 for each following session for a total cost of $545 for the sixmonth program.

After completing the program, participants

can come back for free at any time, Montgomery said.

RIGHTS from Page A1 Williams said she and her group, who filed a “friend of the court” brief in the case that ultimately led to the court’s decision, are not going to “wallow in sorrow.” They will, in fact, be Hitting the Streets Again.

“That’s what we’re calling our newly energized campaign in the face of this decision,” Williams said. “We have never stopped really. We have always registered folks to vote.”

Williams registered three in her office on North Main Street on Friday.

“We have just kicked it up,” she said. “We’re not going to bellyache.

We’re not going to do all that. We’ve just cranked up our machinery.”

IN SEARCH OF A BIRTH CERTIFICATE

Mayesville resident Thelma Hodge had been trying to get her certified birth certificate for five years before she finally sought the help of Williams, Spencer and the Family Unit Inc. The 71-year-old grandmother is like many blacks her age: She was born in a rural community with a midwife present.

“It just wasn’t something done in those days; the midwife didn’t go back to file a birth certificate,” Hodge said.

The entire process became even more of a concern for Hodge in 2011 as state lawmakers devised a Voter ID bill that was subsequently passed and signed by

Gov. Nikki Haley. The law itself was subject to Department of Justice oversight because of the Voting Rights Act provisions. Deemed acceptable starting for elections in and after 2013, the bill requires all voters to display a government-issued photo ID, including a driver’s license or state-issued photo ID card, at the polls.

Supporters like Rep. Murrell Smith, R-Sumter, have said it will combat voter fraud, wherein an individual poses as someone else at the polls. Opponents like Williams say it targets the people she seeks to serve most: the poor, elderly, minorities and others who typically vote Democratic.

“The important thing to know is that we are not against showing an ID at the polls,” Williams said. “But at the same time, you have to know something significant: To get a government-issued photo ID, you must have a certified birth certificate.

The people affected by these laws the most, the elderly, impoverished and minorities, many times they do not have a certified birth certificate.”

Overall, the state Department of Motor Vehicles requires South Carolinians to present proof of citizenship using something such as a birth certificate or passport; their Social Security card or other proof of a Social Security number; and proof of resi-

dency using something such as a bill.

But for people like Hodge who don’t have these documents, the process is time-consuming.

“You go to DHEC (the Department of Health and Environmental Control) and have to get a delayed birth certificate,” Williams said.

It sounds easier than it is. One must traverse the dense waters of family court. And without a lawyer, Williams said the process is “burdensome and expensive.”

“You have to have police clearances, SLED (State Law Enforcement Division) clearance, a letter from the Department of Social Services saying that you’re not a child molester or not behind in child support, and that’s just the beginning,” Williams said.

“Most of these individuals are elderly. They don’t have cars. Many of them don’t have phones. They live out in country areas. They don’t have the wherewithal to do that.”

The alternative? Hire an attorney and spend anywhere from $800 to $2,000, minimum.

“These people don’t have that kind of

money,” Williams said.

Hodge tried on her own until 2011, but kept finding she needed more documents than her birth certificate. She didn’t have them.

“They told me I needed documents showing my parents’ birthdays, the birth certificates of all my children, marriage certificates; I was about to

give up,” Hodge said. “I had a rough time.”

Eddie Lee Rubin, 45, also of Mayesville, had less difficulty gaining his Voter ID earlier this week. He had registered to vote in 2008 while awaiting trial for vandalism at the Sumter-Lee Regional Detention Center.

“I got into some trouble, and Dr. Williams helped me register to vote,” he said. “I got my Voter ID on Wednesday.

I’m excited that it didn’t take me what it took (others).”

Rubin was issued his temporary Voter ID at the Sumter County Voter Registration Office.

“It’s important for people to know that they can go, if they have their government-issued photo ID or birth certificate, to the Voter Registration Office in their county and get a Voter ID with a picture on it,” Williams said. “Again, we are not against showing an ID. But we have a problem with a system that makes it prohibitive to vote.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Here’s how area members of Congress voted on major issues in the week ending June 28.

HOUSE OIL DRILLING, FINANCIAL RULES: Voting 256 for and 171 against, the House on June 27 passed a Republican bill (HR 1613) to implement a Gulf of Mexico deepwaterdrilling treaty in a way that would exempt U.S. oil companies from transparency rules in the 2010 DoddFrank financial-regulation law. Those rules require companies to publicly disclose how much they pay the U.S. government or foreign governments for rights to extract oil, gas and minerals.

They are included in a pact signed by the U.S. and Mexico in February 2012 to open 1.5 million acres spanning their nautical boundary in the western gulf to energy development. Sponsors of this bill said the rules could put U.S. oil firms at a disadvantage in their bidding for leases under the treaty, while opponents noted that Pemex, Mexico’s stateowned oil company, will be subject to the same disclosure requirements.

A yes vote was to pass the

GOP bill.

VOTE H-1 slugged RULES SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Mark Sanford, R-1, Joe Wilson, R-2, Jeff Duncan, R-3, Trey Gowdy, R-4, Mick Mulvaney, R-5, Tom Rice, R-7 Voting no: James Clyburn, D-6 Not voting: None BP OIL-SPILL LESSONS: Voting 194 for and 232 against, the House on June 27 defeated a bid to ensure that safety lessons from the BPDeepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 are applied to deepwater drilling in the western gulf that occurs under HR 1613 (above). This motion by Democrats also sought to require companies responsible for spills to pay all cleanup costs. The U.S.-Mexico treaty at the heat of the bill allows each nation to answer to its own environmental and safety laws. Some U.S. regulations already have been toughened in response to BP’s spill of nearly five million barrels of oil into the gulf over 87 days three years ago, the largest environmental disaster in U.S. history.

Jeff Duncan, R-S.C., called the motion “just the latest attempt by a few on the other side of the aisle to cater to

RIGHTS from Page A5 ‘HOLY HELL’

Spencer and Williams are old enough to remember their parents discussing minority voting, or the lack thereof, in the pre-civil rights-era South. “I can remember growing up on my parents’ farm, and if they went to vote, they had to vote the way the white man whose farm they lived on voted,� Spencer said. “Back then, the white man whose farm you lived on would even accompany you to the polls to make sure you voted for the candidate he had chosen. I can remember they had the ‘right’ to vote, but it was hollow.�

Williams said prior to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, literacy tests were the norm at the polls. “A literacy test is nice compared to what many Southern (jurisdictions) did,� Williams said. “If you had the audacity to even register to vote, they would ask you to tell them how many bubbles are in this bar of soap, how many marbles are in this jar, read the Preamble to the Constitution and interpret it for me. This was done to keep African-

Americans from voting.� “But black people, despite the fact that we had to go through holy hell just to be treated right, just to gain rights that are due to us by the fact that we are human beings and American, black people have never stopped voting,� Williams said. “And we certainly won’t stop now.�

Williams and others in her group, like board member Calvin Bennett, look to this history to drive them forward. Bennett believes the court’s decision could turn back all progress made on civil rights. “With the invalidation of this legislation, all of what we have worked for could be lost,� Bennett said. “The (Voter ID) law is already clearly a dig at the black, the poor and the elderly. They’re trying

special interests instead of the needs of the American people.�

A yes vote backed the Democratic motion.

VOTE H-2 slugged SPILL SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Clyburn Voting no: Sanford, Wilson (SC), Duncan (SC), Gowdy, Mulvaney, Rice (SC) Not voting: None EXPANDED OFFSHORE DRILLING: Voting 235 for and 186 against, the House on June 28 passed a bill (HR 2231) requiring expanded drilling in Outer Continental Shelf areas thought to have some of America’s most promising oil and gas deposits, with nearby states receiving 37.5 percent of royalties paid to the Treasury. The bill also requires drilling in specific tracts offshore from Virginia and South Carolina and lifts longstanding federal bans on drilling in Alaska’s Bristol Bay and offshore from Santa Barbara and Ventura counties in California. Depending on the state, the Outer Continental Shelf usually begins three to nine nautical miles from shore and reaches outward for at least 200 nautical miles.

Doc Hastings, R-Wash., said, “We shouldn’t have to accept potentially $4-a-gallon

to shut down the people who are the most vulnerable. These are Republican-backed bills, and they’re trying to ensure (future elections) for the Republican party.�

Bennett worries that without Department of Justice oversight, Southern conservatives will gerrymander districts not to choke out the minority vote entirely, but to greatly reduce its influence. “They’ve already set a course to stack the deck of cards against minority voters and the candidates that they support,� Bennett said. “And when you do that, you can return and overturn everything that’s been done to progress civil rights.� “Sure, we still have the Voting Rights Act, but what would you do if I gave you a car, and then took the engine out of the car?� Bennett continued. “Where are you going to go? You can’t move on.

gas prices (at the pump), especially when we have the resources right here at home� to increase petroleum supplies.

A yes vote was to send the bill to the Senate.

VOTE H-1 slugged OFFSHORE

U.S.; establish new or streamlined employment visas for low-skilled and high-tech workers and create a new program for temporarily admitting 112,000 or more seasonal farm workers each year.

The Congressional Budget Office projects the bill would reduce deficits by $197 billion in the first 10 years, mainly due to fees, penalties and taxes such as Social Security withholding that immigrants would send to the Treasury while pursuing legal status.

For undocumented immigrants, the first step toward legality under the bill is to apply for Registered Provisional Immigrant (RPI) status, which, if granted, would last 10 years, or five years for immigrants defined as “dreamers.� They would then spend three years as permanent residents with a Green Card before achieving naturalized citizenship after 13 years.

A yes vote was to pass the bipartisan bill.

VOTE S-1 slugged IMMIGRATION

SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Joe Wilson, R-2, Jeff Duncan, R-3, Trey Gowdy, R-4, Mick Mulvaney, R-5, Tom Rice, R-7 Voting no: Mark Sanford, R-1, James Clyburn, D-6 Not voting: None SENATE IMMIGRATION OVERHAUL: Voting 68 for and 32 against, the Senate on June 27 sent the House a bill (S 744) that would create a 13year route to citizenship for 11 million undocumented immigrants who entered the U.S. by the end of 2011; surge law enforcement and electronic surveillance on the U.S.-Mexico border; tighten the Canadian border; crack down on foreign visitors who overstay their visas; require all states to adopt the E-Verify system by which employers check on the legality of new workers; streamline family visas to reduce backlogs in reuniting kin in the

We have all the other decisions we fought for, but they will be overturned when conservatives stack the cards across the country.�

URGE TO FIGHT

Williams said with the court’s decision, she expects Congress to do little to tweak the formula Roberts and four other justices found outdated. Ferdinand Burns, president of the Sumter branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, agrees. “I don’t see this Congress coming up with a new formula,� Burns said. “They can’t come up with anything now.

They stalemate on everything. They are so prejudiced against this president, they don’t want to do anything that will make this president look good.�

For Williams, Spencer

SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Lindsey Graham, R Voting no: Tim Scott, R Not voting: None

and Bennett, it means more work to do. “I believe more Voter ID bills will be passed across the nation,� Bennett said. “I think it’s just the beginning.

That’s why it’s all the more important now that we keep registering people to vote of all races and backgrounds.�

Spencer said she’s up for a fight. “You know, sometimes you’ve been in the fight for so long that you want to fight,� she said. “I know that it takes work to have some freedom, for you to have a say-so in how your community works. If anything, this just makes me want to go more. It gives me a surge of new energy.�

Spencer said all she

has to do is think of herself, Williams and Bennett as examples for future generations of voters who may be affected by the ramifications of the court decision. “It doesn’t bother me to work, to get up early in the morning or go to bed late at night,� she said. “I’ve been out for 11 hours at a time registering folks to vote. And I don’t want to go back to before. I don’t want my grands to go back. I don’t want my greatgrands to go back. I’m going to fight because we are examples to them that we should not give up what has been won. We’re not going to let it go.�

COMMENTARY

Life’s endless road trip; schools, Tuomey

I

once sold a car to a preacher from Bishopville who looked just like Billy Bob Thornton. I thought it was some reality TV show when he came to look at it.

This week I sold my old Volvo XC90 to the lead singer of a rock ‘n’ roll cover band. I loved that car, but it was time to set it free.

I bought Graham it new in OSTEEN May 2004, drove it for five years and 150,000 miles, then gave it to my son who had it four years in college, adding another 70,000 miles.

I bought my current vehicle in May 2009, and I’ve put over 100,000 miles on that one. This makes for a 9-year total of about 250,000 miles, or about 28,000 a year in my car.

That doesn’t include driving other vehicles like my vintage Chevrolet Suburban purchased in 1991 from Jay Carter at Jones Chevrolet. It has a custom train horn and still runs great. I’m now looking for some Texas-style antlers to bolt on the front, so call me.

Overall, I’ve been rolling about 35,000 miles a year, but I plan to cut back dramatically in the second half of 2013 and reduce my environmental footprint on the planet, or whatever it is the “green” people say.

The average American drives about 15,000 miles a year, according to my Google research, so I’m definitely above average. Longhaul truck drivers go an average of 100,000 miles a year, which means I probably don’t need a CB radio yet. Although I do like to use trucker slang when I talk on the phone, saying things like, “I got my bird dog on and I’m looking out for smokies. Over.” Or, “putting the pedal to the metal and rolling in about noon time, brother. Over.” My brother Kyle loves trucker talk, but my brother Jack doesn’t.

And speaking of Kyle, congratulations to him and his band, Hey Bo, who made their debut Wednesday night at Pizza Lane’s Wings & Strings.

He and his buddy Will Fort have been dreaming of making it big for many years, and now they’ve officially adopted the rock n’ roll lifestyle. Party on, boys.

••• On a more serious note, please take a look at Russ Weinberg’s excellent piece on the Sumter School District on this page today.

The SWEET 16 fiasco gives the board a clear reason to start over and rectify the terrible mistake they made hiring the current administration. Perhaps there will actually be some teachers left for a new interim superintendent to start with this fall.

••• The other big news of the week involved the ongoing

Tuomey debacle, and included many new observations by the government about the role of the administration and previous board.

Quoting from the government’s most recent motion in the U.S. versus Tuomey case, which can be found at theitem.com, we learn: “Fraud like that committed by Tuomey in this case — where payments for physician referrals were hidden in spreadsheets and discussed behind closed doors — is difficult to detect. That, in turn, underscores the need for penalties high enough to make a potential wrongdoer wary of risking sanction in circumstances where his secretive conduct makes the risk of detection low.”

So the Tuomey administration — and presumably the previous board — not only knew they were intentionally risking prosecution for federal fraud by putting in place illegal doctor contracts in 2005, they were also actively hiding it from view and publicly denying it to the same Sumter citizens the non-profit community hospital is in place to serve.

To make it even worse, CEO Jay Cox is on the board, which is supposed to be in place to oversee his administration. So much for the “it’s too complicated for you to understand” chorus we’ve been hearing for so long.

After two trials and the resultant guilty verdicts, no one outside the closed Tuomey boardroom — and a handful of naive, diehard supporters — still believes Tuomey was some hapless victim of government aggression.

We also don’t know how much has been spent on lawyers over the past eight years, but a top national health care attorney I know estimates it to be approaching $30 million after the second trial. And the meter’s still running for the ever-growing legal dream team.

The government is still attempting to settle the case, as it noted on page 1 of this same, most recent motion, so there’s still a chance for the new Tuomey board to save the hospital and provide some certainty to the Sumter health care landscape.

Just like the Sumter school board, this new Tuomey board has a narrow window and a rare chance to settle the case and start fresh with new leadership.

This would restore a great deal of confidence across the community spectrum — business, industrial, military, education and health care — for the long term.

They could all be heroes.

School District as well. Because of this, it seems that the students and teachers of Sumter school district are being used as guinea pigs to test out a system that district administrators can then license to other districts. Consistent with that scenario, The Item has reported that Ms. Dixon has presented SWEET 16 at several educational conferences.

To put it bluntly, the current administrators of Sumter School District are now in a position to personally profit from all of the suffering and dysfunction that they have caused.

District administration would have us believe that they have no intention of profiting from SWEET 16. If that’s the case, then why did they hide from the board the fact that SWEET 16 had been privately copyrighted? It appears that they had no intention of telling the board about this arrangement and that its existence was uncovered more or less by accident through questioning of Ms. Dixon by board member Karen Michalik. Under additional questioning from Michalik, Dixon admitted that her copyright puts her in a position to personally profit from SWEET 16 even at the expense of the Sumter School District that she serves. As she stated in an uncharacteristic moment of candor: “Can I take SWEET 16 with me? It is mine to take with me.”

In response to this information, board member Ralph Canty said, “I have a problem with that. I have a problem that we’ve had this program in place for two years, going into its third year, and I’ve never heard that before.”

We should all have a problem with it. In fact, the potential for this sort of arrogant self-dealing on the part of a school district official (or officials) should not be tolerated.

The question is, are we going to just put up with it or are we going to demand change? If we don’t rise up and say we are not going to take stuff like this anymore, then we probably deserve what we get.

BUTTERFLIES from Page A1 actively participating in the growth and maturity of the butterflies has been inspiring for Robinson on a composite spiritual and scientific level, as well. “Nature is infinitely wonderful,� he said. “There are some things for which mankind has no explanation in terms of ‘why’ or exactly ‘how’ things occur. It never ceases to amaze me.�

Robinson makes it a point to share that wonder with others, including children. He regularly visits schools

for events such as Earth Day, and his presentations are a hit with the children. “They enjoy it quite a bit,� he said. “I bring several caterpillars and butterflies with me each time. Their faces light up when I release the butterflies.�

The 74-year-old man can recall several instances in which his product and his personal effort had a great impact on a customer. In turn, their joyous reactions affected him. “Not too long ago, a

Rucker went to third on a wild pitch and scored when third baseman Javon Martin initially bobbled Jackson Murphy’s grounder to make it 2-0.

Neither team could do nothing in the fourth, but Fort Pierce came back to take the lead for good in the fifth. The charge began when Rocky Wright drove in Matt Nocito.

Dalton Murray then singled to load the bases and Justus Labigang singled to right field, driving in Alex Esteramere, again leaving the bases loaded. Ed McKenna then hit a fly ball to deep right for a sacrfice fly to score Wright and make it 5-3.

The P-15’s were unable to get anything going in the bottom of the inning. In Post 358’s sixth, Esteramere hit a fly ball to shallow right field, allowing Wright to score, giving Post 358 a 6-3

Schwartz youngest Sunset CC champ

BY MICHAEL CHRISTOPHER mchristopher@theitem.com Youth was served — or perhaps it was youth doing the serving — at last weekend’s Sunset Country Club Championship.

At the spry age of 15, Grier Schwartz shot a 149 to win the 2-round golf tournament, becoming the youngest club champion in the club’s 91-year history.

“It’s a really big honor to be the youngest one ever and out of all the champions that have won it; it just means a lot,” said Schwartz, who also took home the junior championship title as well.

In his first club championship, Schwartz was forced to hit from the black tees as required for those ages 15-18 years old. It was something he’s accustomed to though as he plays the course every day and has been a member all of his life.

“I would say (playing the course every day) paid off to my advantage because they have to go to work every day and I can just go out there and play every day,” Schwartz said.

Rain postpones Kentucky race

BY GARY GRAVES The Associated Press

QUAKER STATE 400 LINEUP

SPARTA, Ky. — Rain Saturday night forced NASCAR to postpone the Sprint Cup race at Kentucky Speedway.

The 400-mile event was rescheduled to begin today at noon.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. will start on the pole in a Chevy alongside Carl Edwards’ Ford.

It was the circuit’s first postponement since last year’s season-opening Daytona 500. The marquee event ran the following night for the first time in its history.

Sunday’s rescheduling creates the first day Cup race for the 1.5-mile oval after two events at night.

Showers were forecast all day around the state, which arrived around mid-afternoon with a heavy downpour followed by sporadic rain. NASCAR delayed the start and held out hope for a late start with jet driers on the

“I tell my team that good teams take advantage of errors like that and that’s what we did,” said Texarkana head coach Dane Peavy, who whose team improved to 23-6 overall and 2-1 in the tournament. “And Sumter has a great team. We’re well aware of their tradition, and we’ve really enjoyed playing in this tournament.”

“Their pitcher did a good job of keeping us off balance all night,” Johnson said of Jeans.

Sumter got its other run off of Jeans in the fifth. Will Smith’s single scored Kendall Pack, who had reached on an error.

Texarkana got a run in the top of the seventh to go up 5-2. The P-15’s did not go away quietly in the bottom of the inning though, thanks to some help from Texarkana.

Pinch hitter Tee Dubose reached on a 1-out error by second baseman Nathan Stubber.

Jacob Watcher then reached when reserve first baseman Jonathan Boucher dropped his popup on the infield.

That spelled the end for Jeans, who was replaced by fellow lefty Dalton Willige.

Willige fell behind 3-1 in the count to Smith before striking him out. However, he hit Phillip Watcher to load the bases and bring cleanup hitter Andrew Reardon to the plate. Reardon hit a couple of balls hard but foul before popping up on the infield to end the game.

“We made way too many errors in that last inning,” Peavy said. “(Jeans) should have been out of there (with the win). We made him throw too many pitches.”

Johnson was pleased with the way his team battled in the final inning.

“You always talk about getting the tying run to the plate, and we got the go-ahead run to the plate,” Johnson said. “I’m proud of the way we continued to play hard.”

Managers maneuvering lineups out of necessity

BY R.B. FALLSTROM The Associated Press

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Atlanta’s Jason Heyward scores in the eighth inning of the Braves’ 11-5 victory over Arizona on Saturday in Atlanta.

Heyward, big inning propel Braves

BY GEORGE HENRY The Associated Press ATLANTA — People like to say the Atlanta Braves live and die by the home run.

Jason Heyward says that’s not always the case, and he offered Saturday’s eighth inning as proof. “We did a good job getting pitches to hit. We had some sac flies, we had some guys running the bases well, we had some guys drawing some walks,’’ Heyward said. “When you’re able to do things like that and put it all together, you have a lot of opportunities to win the game.’’ Heyward hit a tying RBI double and Andrelton Simmons scored the go-ahead run on the same play in a 7-run eighth inning that gave the Braves an 11-5 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The Braves rallied for their 23rd comeback victory, tops in the National League. Atlanta has won two straight and four of five to lead Washington by 6 1/2 games in the NL East.

The Diamondbacks have lost four of five.

Braves starter Tim Hudson extended his winless streak to

10 straight starts, allowing five hits, four runs and four walks with two strikeouts in 5 2/3 innings.

David Hernandez (4-5) retired the first batter he faced in the eighth, but pinch-hitter Reed Johnson and Simmons were both hit by a pitch before Heyward doubled to left field.

Johnson scored from second on the double, but third base coach Brian Snitker signaled for Simmons to stop on the bag as Jason Kubel was throwing to cutoff man Eric Chavez at third.

When Kubel’s throw bounced wide left of Chavez, Simmons was able to score easily to give the Braves a 6-5 lead. “I was bluffing at first just to force a throw (from Kubel) and maybe make him start getting ready to throw home, too,’’ Simmons said. “When I saw the ball went away from the third baseman, I noticed there was nobody in the space. The catcher was all the way back there, so I didn’t think they were going to beat me to home plate.’’ After a single by Justin Upton chased Hernandez, Tony Sipp allowed Brian McCann’s tworun single and Dan Uggla’s RBI

double, before B.J. Upton’s sacrifice fly RBI to make it 10-5.

Chris Johnson added an RBI single off J.J. Putz for an 11-5 lead.

Hernandez allowed two hits and four runs with no walks or strikeouts in 1/3 of an inning. “We didn’t deserve to win the game,’’ Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. “We walked five in an inning without a hit and only gave up two runs. Then we gave them seven walks, three hit batsmen, made an error. Just melted down. Didn’t play good at all. It’s frustrating. It’s disappointing for sure.’’ The Diamondbacks took a 5-4 lead in the top of the eighth on Miguel Montero’s fifth homer, a solo shot, off Jordan Walden. Walden (3-1) earned the win despite allowing three hits and one run with no walks and one strikeout in one inning.

Arizona scored its first four runs on an RBI double by Montero, Kubel’s RBI single in the fourth and A.J. Pollock’s 2-run homer in the sixth.

Hudson was chased when Pollock’s sixth homer scored Kubel in the sixth to tie it at 4-all.

ST. LOUIS — If it seems like Don Mattingly is writing out a new batting order for the Los Angeles Dodgers every night, it’s because he just about is.

With the season approaching the halfway point, Mattingly used a major league-high 75 different batting orders in the first 79 games for his injury-stricken team.

Seattle (73) and Miami (72) were just behind entering Saturday, while Baltimore and St. Louis (40 each) were the standards of stability, according to STATS. “I don’t know if there’s a manager alive that wouldn’t want to come to the park and have one through nine set for you,’’ Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. “A manager is always trying to figure out that spot where guys have the most suc-

cess and it benefits the team. I think that’s the beauty of managing, trying to figure that out.’’ Injuries, statistics, slumps and matchups all play a role in trying to find that perfect order.

And then there was Billy Martin, who said he occasionally pulled names out of a hat to determine his batting order when his teams were scuffling.

Texas manager Ron Washington used 55 batting orders, with five players sharing the No. 3 hole and six batting No. 5.

During his career, Washington appreciated relative certainty. “As soon as we get back to the way I know we can go, you can see that same lineup. It ain’t going to be jumping back and forth,’’ Washington said. “I think these guys love when they come to the yard knowing exactly where they are every day.’’

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Texas manager Ron Washington marks his lineup card at the start of a game against Seattle. Daily wrinkles on Rangers lineup cards have nothing to do with Washington’s ego.

While waiting out injuries and slumps, tinkering is a necessity. The first 77 games, five players have batted in the allimportant third spot and six have batted fifth.

Serena, Djokovic show who’s No. 1

BY HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press

STEPHENS from Page B1

LONDON — As the sun set on the opening week of Wimbledon, just about the only seeding that truly signified something was No. 1.

That’s the number beside the names of Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic, who turned in nearly perfect performances back-to-back Saturday on Centre Court to cap nearly perfect runs to the fourth round at the All England Club, while chaos reigned all around them.

In the final match of the fortnight’s first half, played with the roof closed and lights glowing to make sure it would get done as darkness approached, defending champion Williams used eight aces and 11 return winners to power past 42-yearold Kimiko Date-Krumm of Japan 6-2, 6-0 in 61 minutes.

“She didn’t lose energy, and her game, I think, is getting better, day after day. Not better in general, but adapting to the surface. Everything is getting better,’’ said French coach Patrick Mouratoglou, who has been working with Williams over the past year, when she is 77-3. “So now let’s enter into the most important part of the tournament. ... Now the matches are going to get tougher and tougher.’’

Might not necessarily have been a fair fight, considering that Date-Krumm is ranked 84th and was the oldest woman to reach the third round at

slams well. I’m excited to be in the second week again.’’

While she won, two other Americans lost: Allison Riske fell to Kaia Kanepi 6-2, 6-3 and Madison Keys fell 7-5, 4-6, 6-3 to fourth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska.

For Keys, the 18-yearold from Rock Island, Ill., it was a much better showing than the last time she faced Radwanska, a 6-1, 6-1 shellacking at Miami in 2012 that Radwanska didn’t even recall when asked about it earlier in the week.

“Felt pretty good,’’ Keys said. “ Just really wanted to do better than last time and wanted to be happy when I came off the court.’’

Stephens’ third round win turned out to be a two-day affair.

The match started on Friday night, but was suspended at one set apiece because of darkness. But Stephens had to plead with the umpire for the match to be postponed.

At 3-0 in the second set, Stephens told umpire Kelly Thomson she was having trouble see-

Women’s top seed Serena Williams, left, and men’s top seed Novak Djokovic both easily advanced to the fourth round at Wimbledon on Saturday.

Williams defeated Kimiko Date-Krumm 6-2, 6-0 while Djokovic earned a 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 victory over Jeremy Chardy.

Wimbledon in the 45-year Open era. She played Williams evenly for about three games, before the 16-time major champion took over.

“She has so much power, speed,’’ Date-Krumm said. “She has everything.’’

Williams’ easy win followed the 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 victory over 28th-seeded Jeremy Chardy of France turned in by 2011 champion Djokovic, who compiled a remarkable ratio of 38 winners to three unforced errors. The Serb’s initial miscue of his own doing did not come until the third set’s sixth game, when he double-faulted while ahead 4-1, 40-love.

“Everything went my way,’’ Djokovic said. “I did everything I wanted to do.’’

Both he and Williams could say that about the way they handled matters throughout Week 1.

Williams has won all six sets she’s played, allowing her opponents a total of 11 games.

Djokovic has won all of his nine sets, dropping 29 games.

“You don’t want to play your best tennis in the first round and continue to go down. I feel like I try to play better as each match goes on,’’ said Williams.

“I try to find out something I can improve on from each match so I can do it better in the next round.’’

ing. Thomson responded that they still had sufficient light to keep playing for 45 minutes. Once Stephens lost the second set at love, she told Cetkovska she couldn’t see and they agreed to stop playing.

The match resumed at the start of the third set, and Stephens came out slowly, falling behind 2-0. In all, Stephens lost eight games in a row before breaking serve in the third game of the third set.

“It’s always tough coming back the next day to finish the match,’’ Stephens said. “I just felt weird. I’m only playing one set. This is like a practice set. It was a little tricky.’’

Stephens moves on to play 19-year-old Monica Puig of Puerto Rico, with whom she’s familiar from when they both trained as pre-teens with coach Nick Saviano in South Florida. This will be their first match against each other as pros.

4-way tie atop AT&T National

BY DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press BETHESDA, Md. — A triple bogey for Bill Haas. Double bogeys for Andres Romero and Roberto Castro. They still wound up in a 4-way tie for the lead Saturday in the AT&T National with James Driscoll, whose third round was pleasantly dull by comparison.

Castro put the perfect finishing touch on this most wild day at Congressional when he hit his approach into the water left of the 18th green, and then chipped in for par from 80 feet to salvage an even-par 71 and keep a share of the lead.

Haas made nine birdies and had to settle for a 68, courtesy of two wedge shots that cost him four shots, including his triple bogey on the beastly 11th hole. Romero had a threeshot lead at one point, and

then it was gone. He went from the water to a bunker on the 11th for double bogey and followed that with a bogey on the next hole. He made six pars the rest of the way for a 70.

Driscoll, meanwhile, motored along without too much excitement. He had a 68, the only player in the field to break 70 all three rounds. Coming off a bogey on the 15th, Driscoll though he might be headed for another with a poor tee shot.

But he knocked a 4-iron out of the rough, barely got onto the green and rolled in a 25-foot birdie.

They were at 7-under 206, and more fun awaits Sunday.

“I think over four days here, every player is going to hit kind of a rough patch,’’ Castro said.

Ten players were separated by four shots going into the

final round, a group that includes 19-year-old Jordan Spieth. He had a two-shot lead after opening with two straight birdies, and then went through a stretch of missing five putts inside 8 feet on a four-hole stretch. One of them was a three-putt from 5 feet for double bogey on No. 8. Spieth had a 74, though he’s still in the game, just three shots behind.

“A wild day,’’ Castro said.

Jason Kokrak had a 70 and was one shot out of the lead, while Charlie Wi had a 29 on the front nine and shot 65 to finish two shots behind, along with Tom Gillis (66). Spieth was in the group at 209 with Brandt Snedeker, who had a 69.

If Saturday was any indication, expect anything in the final round, especially since seven of those 10 players have never won on the PGA Tour.

Park leads by 4 at U.S. Women’s Open SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. — Inbee Park is one round from making history by winning the first three majors of the year.

The top-ranked Park had a four-stroke lead through three rounds at the U.S. Women’s Open. She shot 1-under 71 on Saturday in harsh conditions at Sebonack and was 10 under for the tournament.

Fellow South Korean I.K. Kim had a 73 to remain in second but PARK lost two strokes to Park.

COUPLES IN FRONT AT SENIOR PLAYERS

PITTSBURGH — Fred Couples birdied three of the final five holes for a 3-under 67 and a two-stroke lead Saturday after the third round of the Senior Players Championship.

Couples completed a 62 in the morning in the rain-delayed second round and had a 15under 195 total at Fox Chapel.

Kenny Perry was second in the Champions Tour major. Duffy Waldorf was third at 11 under after rounds of 67 and 66.

VANDERBILT DISMISSES 4 FOOTBALL PLAYERS

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Vanderbilt has dismissed four football players from the team and kicked them off campus while Nashville police investigate whether a sex crime occurred in a dorm.

The school’s public affairs department announced Friday that four players — none of whom it named — were suspended from the team. The university issued another release Saturday morning indicating they’re removed from the team and on interim suspension from the university “effective immediately, pending further investigation and/or a hearing.’’

KESELOWSKI WINS NATIONWIDE RACE AT KENTUCKY

SPARTA, Ky. — Brad Keselowski took his final lead on the 156th lap and went on to a rain-shortened victory Friday night in the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Kentucky Speedway.

Elliott Sadler was second, followed by Truck Series points leader Matt Crafton, Brian Vickers and Kyle Busch.

SCHWARTZ from Page B1 In his Sunday group were two of his father Milton’s buddies, Brian Bland, the 2009 club champion, and Les Thompson. Bland led going into Sunday’s final round after shooting a 71 on Saturday. Schwartz and Thompson were three strokes back after shooting 74s.

Schwartz beat Bland by a stroke on the front nine in the final round, shooting a 38, with the former club champion shooting a 39.

That set him up for the back nine.

“I knew I had to make up some shots really fast and on No. 12 (a par 4) was a good hole for me because he bogeyed and I parred it, so I was down one and I just started playing really well from there,” Schwartz said of a change in momentum. “I got up two shots going into the final hole and parred it.”

Schwartz and Bland both missed birdie putts on 17,

but Bland birdied the final hole. However, Schwartz sank his par putt to win by one stroke and make history.

Schwartz shot a final round 75, while Bland shot a 79.

“I think it says a lot about the abilities of Grier,” said Sunset head professional Brian Altman. “The kid’s got a bright future; he was on Wilson Hall’s golf team who went undefeated (during the regular season) this past year, and you’ve got to believe he was a major reason why after this accomplishment.”

Schwartz bettered the previous record of Sharp Turner, another Wilson Hall product, who won the club’s championship in ‘11 at the age of 16.

“It speaks to the experience he has even though this is his first championship,” Altman explained.

“Kids are getting into (golf) so much younger, so they’re playing these Monday (SCJGA Mid-State chapter)

From wire reports

tournaments all summer long from 8 (years old) and up, so he’s got tournament experience, and as that experience builds, so does his results. And when the confidence gets there that’s when success happens, and the more success the more confidence he has as it works in a circle.”

Going into his first club championship Schwartz said he didn’t have too many expectations.

“My expectations weren’t too high; I just went out there and played the way I know that I can, and it turned out for the best,” he said.

For his record-setting feat Schwartz said he received two trophies — one each for the club and junior championship — as well as some gift cards and a parking spot for a year. There’s only one problem. Schwartz has his driver’s license, but has no car.

“Next year we’re going to have to give away cars because we’ve got a parking spot, but no car to put in it,” Altman joked.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Atlantic Coast Conference Commissioner John Swofford has spent nearly two years working to bring in new schools, refuting reports of departures and securing a media rights deal to pump the brakes on realignment.

The end result comes Monday when Pittsburgh, Syracuse and Notre Dame officially arrive to form a 15-team ACC. “It’s a very exciting time to be a part of this league,’’ Swofford said.

“In a lot of ways, it feels like Pitt and Syracuse and Notre Dame are already in SWOFFORD the league.

They just haven’t been in it competitively but they’ve been in our meetings and been a part of our discussions and the decisions that will move us forward. ... We’re just in a really good place right now.’’

The changes began with the ACC inviting Pitt and Syracuse in September 2011. A year later, Notre Dame said it would join in all league sports except football, though it will play five games annually against ACC teams and gain access to its bowl tieins starting next fall.

Then, after Maryland’s surprise defection to the Big Ten for 2014, the league reached out to Louisville as a replacement and secured a grant-of-rights agreement giving the ACC control of TV money for schools that leave before the broadcast deal ends after the 2026-27 season.

The changes have strengthened the ACC’s East Coast presence, expanded its footprint west into Indiana and offered protection from future realignment.

That’s why Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick said there’s excitement in South Bend about the move for the Fighting Irish, who will remain a football independent. He said a man stopped him on the way to his office

Friday to say it was “the best thing Notre Dame could have done.’’

“You want to go into a conference where you know the members are fully committed to the conference,’’ Swarbrick said. “They were saying that publicly, they were saying that privately, but (the grant of rights) was a very significant manifestation of that commitment. That’s a great place.’’

It’s the second ACC expansion in 16 years under Swofford, who lured Boston College, Miami and Virginia Tech from the Big East a decade ago.

This time, he expanded campus visits with presidents and athletic directors to include university trustees during stops at Florida State, Clemson and Virginia to answer questions about the ACC’s future.

“The Maryland move was disconcerting in the sense that it caught all of us by surprise,’’ Swofford said. “But on the other hand, I’ve always been confident about the future and the stability of this league because I see firsthand the commitment at the presidential level, at the AD level, institution to institution and to the league itself.

“When you lose one, you kind of look sideways a little bit about the trust factor. But I never had any reason not to trust any of our other schools or the people representing those schools.’’

The ACC has sued Maryland for payment of an exit fee of nearly $53 million, set after the Notre Dame announcement that also allowed the league to renegotiate its TV deal with ESPN. The 14 football members will receive an average of more than $20 million annually, a person familiar with the situation said. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the league isn’t releasing the financial details of the TV deal.

BOXLEITNER from Page B1 surgery to correct a labral tear. She thinks the injury actually occurred during the previous softball season.

“I was throwing in really cold weather,” she said. “I heard a pop.”

Recovered from the surgery, she suffered a concussion during the first volleyball scrimmage in the fall.

“They were trying me out in the back row,” she said. “I just rolled. It was a really freak accident.”

Her head hit the floor when she rolled, she said, and the initial MRI revealed bruising. By December, another MRI showed the bruising was gone.

“The head’s fine,” she said.

“I’m over the point when I get headaches all the time.”

By April, though, McElveen said, “I was having a lot of pain and trouble with my arm.”

Tests detected a 60 percent biceps tear, and she had a second surgery.

“It’s just getting over the

occasional soreness,” she said.

McElveen continues rehabilitation. She receives physical therapy twice a week yet feels muscle pain from her elbow up. She has been working out on the elliptical machine and has been doing leg presses.

“It’s a really slow recovery,” she said. “I do what I can.”

The doctors have told her she should be ready for the volleyball season, she said. Listed as an outside hitter and defensive specialist, she reports in midAugust.

“If I can’t physically hit, I’ll try harder to do back row,” she said.

She has two years of eligibility remaining in volleyball.

She is not listed on the spring softball roster.

OUTDOORS

THE ITEM

Seasoned fishermen and the company they keep

H

afield & afloat

unters and fishermen have several phases they go through during the course of their hunting and fishing careers.

First, they just want to catch or kill something, anything at all. It doesn’t Earle matter; they WOODWARD just want to be a part of it.

Then they go through the “I want to take the most” phase or the “I want the biggest and best” phase as trophy hunters and big bass fishermen. Maybe they want to use archery equipment or a flyrod instead of a rifle or casting rod for just a little more challenge.

However, in the end, as we “mature” we learn that that’s really not what it’s all about.

It has taken the better part of 50 years, but I’ve discovered that it’s not how I catch the fish. It’s more, who I’m fishing with. It really doesn’t matter how big the deer was or the number of bream I catch. It’s the fact that I got to be among God’s creatures and enjoy the wonders of His world.

With that in mind, our little group of guys from church gathered back at Gene’s pond last Saturday for another outing to reduce the fish population. I don’t know, maybe 10-12 guys and 5-6 boats and a whole lot of fishing tackle.

We launched around 7 a.m. and began beating the banks with our favorite lures. Melvin and I were fishing together in my boat and were heaving worms and flukes into the

shoreline cover with absolutely no affect at all, not the first bite.

Just a quick glance at the water explained part of the problem. It had rained -- no surprise there -- and the water was a bit muddy and kind of high. But hey, it’s a private pond, one of those places that usually gives up its bounty without a lot of work. People that have ponds are spoiled rotten. They truly don’t have to work at fishing like those folks that pound the banks at the lake do. So we expected big things.

The last time we fished the pond we were all hooked up on about the third or fourth cast; not this day. I pretty much went through the tackle box, crank baits, spinnerbaits, worms, flukes, you name it and I was chunking it. I finally caught a fish on a spinnerbait that was nothing more than the wire part of the lure that had a piece of black plastic worm that I had put on it .

Ultimately, we wound up casting fire-tailed worms into the alligator grass and easing it out to catch fish, but they were really slow. All the while we were fishing, the pots and burners were waiting on us at the landing, and when we finished fishing, we were going to clean the fish and fry them up. After about 3 ½ hours of fishing, Melvin and I had a grand total of six bass of about a pound and a half apiece. A man could starve to death on that, and we had as many fish as anybody, maybe more.

Melvin had been trying to catch a bream on a beetle spin on and off all morning, without success, but I decided I had to try it for myself. My

thought process went back to an afternoon when Gene and I had fished, and we discovered flatfish right in the middle of the pond around some stumps in a little deeper water. I shot the beetle spin right into the middle and hooked up almost immediately. What a bream; bigger than my hand, jet black and blue, with that copper top on his head, a beautiful fish.

A couple of casts later and another bream was hooked up. In fairly short order, Melvin and I put 10-12 nice bream on ice. Both of us agreed that we’d just as soon catch a big bream on ultralight tackle as a bass any day.

Knowing the fish had to be cleaned, the grease heated up and lunch preparations made, Melvin and I headed for the bank to begin the job. It was a fantastic lunch in the shade of the white oaks, with a gentle breeze blowing among the leaves.

The best part about the outing though was that I got to visit with Melvin, I could holler over to Coffee Pot, harass Larry and Gene and the others while they were all doing likewise. Even without catching fish, we were having a ball just enjoying each other’s company and the environment we were in.

As we have matured, it’s the camaraderie and the social aspect of the trips that we have grown to love. The fishing is just an excuse to get together under God’s blue sky and enjoy the fellowship of other men of like thinking.

I have graduated into the ranks of the old, …umm… mature sportsman, like it or not, and I think I like it.

esides her ever present smile that periodically morphs into a grin — she’s got a lot to smile about — the

first thing friends might notice about Heather McCoy is that she’s no longer reliant on supplemental oxygen. Her voice might be a little raspy, but it’s strong and steady — and the double lung transplant recipient has plenty to say, most of it about how thankful she is to her anonymous lung donor and those who made financial and other contributions that helped save her life.

PHOTO PROVIDED

McCoy took this photo three weeks ago during a check-up at Duke University Medical Center. On the left are her “old” lungs, and on the right are her “new” lungs. She said the cloudiness in the right photo did not appear on the original, but was caused by her camera and a glare.

The daughter of Van and Julie McCoy, Heather has had the most serious form of cystic fibrosis all her life; Delta 508 CF is a genetic disease that progressively weakens not just the lungs, but the digestive system as well.

When Heather’s lung capacity declined to 20 percent, her pulmonologist recommended the transplant.

“Including the preand post-transplant rehabilitations, I was (at Duke) about eight and a half months,” she said. “I was on the transplant list for five and a half weeks, and I had three dry runs (times when lungs became available but were not suitable for some reason).”

Last Tuesday, she was wearing a T-shirt identifying her as a Duke Lung Transplant recipient and giving the date of her surgery, Nov. 13, 2012, which is also, she pointed out, “My mom’s birthday.”

Last year, just a few months before she moved to Durham to await and prepare for her transplant, Heather spoke to The Item about what the surgery might mean for her.

“I’ve never really known what it’s like to breathe easy, so that’s something that will overwhelm me,” she said last August. “To me it means everything, because my life

“I’ve never really known what it’s like to breathe easy, so that’s something that will overwhelm me. To me it means everything, because my life depends on it. I’ve always been a strong Christian, and I think this situation is bringing me even closer to God than I’ve ever been’ Heather McCoy

From “In and Around the Town” — “A mock orange hedge has been planted inside the new fence around the Washington Street school grounds. Within a few years a neatly clipped hedge will add greatly to the appearance of the square.

“Thanksgiving passed very peacefully in Sumter. The police department had one of their dullest days in years, making only one or two arrests. The hunters turned out in full force, but for most it was a disappointing day. A few fair-sized bags of quail were reported, but on the whole the hunters had a bad day.

Cultural center nears completion While last Sunday’s Reflections centered on the demolition of a wing of the former Sumter High School on Haynsworth Street, today’s article focuses on the renovation of Sumter High School’s auditorium. The project was scheduled to be completed by Oct. 1, 1986. The $2.5 million project, to be known as Patriot Hall, featured a new stage, lighting and sound equipment. The construction of a new cultural center was designed to “provide a place where children and adults would be able to learn and enjoy the arts.”

T

reflections

he concept of a cultural center for Sumter remained a dream for many years.

The late Lauren Booth once said if “we are going to get people to come to Sumter, we need an arts facility.

Sumter has grown, but it has reached a plateau. If we are going to continue to grow, we have to be able to provide good cultural entertainment.”

Sammy The WAY architecture firm of James-Durant-Matthews-Shelley was contracted to prepare the plans for the renovation of the campus. The auditorium cost $2.5 million to renovate and included the removal of the old wooden seats, enlargement of the stage, construction of a new balcony and the creation of spaces to house lighting and sound equipment.

The seating in the new facility would be reduced from 1,003 to 500 seats in order to create a friendly atmosphere for the smaller audiences.

Those desiring to refurbish other portions of the building would be required to obtain contributions from groups or individuals who would be responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the rooms they choose to lease.

The newly renovated auditorium was designed first to be acoustically perfect with good lighting, followed closely with being comfortable and beautiful. The hope of the council was that the entire campus would become a cultural complex.

Information and photos used in the preparation of this article were taken from Item archives.

Reach Item Archivist Sammy Way at waysammy@yahoo.com or (803) 774-1294.

The old Sumter High School Haynsworth Street auditorium is seen at various stages of its renovation in 1986. Workers put the new columns in place and completed the wroughtiron railing, which was placed on the second-floor balcony.

The grand opening for the $2.5 million project was scheduled for Oct. 4-23, 1986.

HEATHER from Page C1 depends on it. I’ve always been a strong Christian, and I think this situation is bringing me even closer to God than I’ve ever been, and I’m ready and I can’t say I’m not scared somewhat, but I’m at a state where I know that I’m ready, and I’m so ready to live life, all I can think about is getting the lungs.”

After her transplant and rehabilitation, Heather returned home on Easter weekend, she said, no doubt feeling she’d been given new life.

Before she could be discharged, she said, “Post-rehab you have to walk a certain amount, show that you’re strong enough to leave. Really the therapists and doctors meet and discuss your condition each week, and you have to show you can keep your weight up, you have to show you have good intentions of keeping your exercise up. Mainly, just show you’re doing well enough so they feel confident to release you. They’re very cautious.”

Heather had been returning to Duke once a month for evaluations, “and I continue to go about every one or two months, and as I get further out in transplant, that will not happen as often, it’ll get where I can go every three months or every five months. And it gets longer unless you have problems.”

While she has much more freedom in her physical activi-

ty, Heather said, “There are certain activities I can’t do just because my chest is still healing inside. There’s a wire in there. They don’t want you to do anything that could jar yourself. I’ve always loved riding an ATV (all-terrain vehicle) and a jet ski, but I have to hold off until about a year out. Forever, you have to be cautious about certain things. I’d say it’s basically common sense — don’t do anything that will jeopardize you.”

But Heather prefers to talk about what she can do now and what she plans in the future, as she and her family “get used to the new normal,” she said.

“They’ve been taking care of me for all these years, so they’re trying to get used to ‘Oh, she can go do that.’”

Some of “that” includes activities she was able to do years ago and some she could do only for very brief periods.

“I’ve been playing sports, throwing the ball with my dad in the yard,” Heather said. “My 21st birthday weekend (first weekend in June), I swam our 20-by-40 pool. I held my breath and went all the way across and I came up, and I didn’t cough, and that was just an ‘awe’ moment for me.”

Heather has also been riding her bike for the first time in 10 years, sometimes with her father.

“I have a different feeling when I do things now,” she said.

YESTERYEAR from Page C1 whose recording of “My Blue Heaven” some years ago sold into the millions, arrived in Sumter this morning for his appearance at the Sumter Theatre. The singer received a chilly reception from the weather, but apparently was used to the kind of weather we are not used to. Austin, with his troupe, including Coco and Candy, who accompanied him on the guitar and bass fiddle, made his first appearance on the stage at 2:40 this afternoon.

At the movies — The Sumter Theatre featured “Suez” with Tyrone Power, Loretta Young, Annabella, J. Edward Bromberg, Joseph Schildkraut, Henry Stephenson and Sidney Blackmer on Monday and Tuesday; “Campus Confessions” with Betty Grable, Hank Cuisetti, Eleanor Whitney, William Henry on Wednesday; on Thursday and Friday “The Great Waltz” with Louise Rainer, Fernand and Miliza Korjus; on Saturday “Sharpshooters,” starring Brian Donlevy, Lynn Barie, Wally Vernon and John King.

The Rex Theater featured on Tuesday: “Strange Faces,” with Dorthea Kent and Andy Devine. On Thursday: “Hell House,” starring Bette Davis and Pat O’Brien. On Saturday “The Overland Express” with Buck Jones, Marjorie Reynolds and Caryle Moore.

Sports — A season pass, good for all home games played by the city varsity basketball team against out-of-state opponents, will be given to the person sending in the best name for the Sumter Team.

The Sumter city varsity team is being organized to take the place of the old senior “Y” Green Dragon quintet and will be one of the

outstanding men’s teams in the state.

Games with several college teams are being scheduled for the local “Y” court in addition to games with other outstanding independent teams in the Carolinas.

The Sumter team will be coached by Bob Spessard, Southern Conference Collegiate star. Spessard, who stands 6 feet 7 inches, is probably the tallest player in the state. In addition to such outstanding players as Bernard James and Spessard, the team will have Raymond Fowler, Hugh Stoddard, James Bryan and Leon Blanding.

Claflin wins in Sumter — Morris College dropped a hard-fought game to the heavy Claflin University football team by a 19 to 0 score here yesterday afternoon. Claflin scored once in the second quarter, added another touchdown in the third and the final tally in the fourth. Captain Harris, brilliant Morris College fullback, was outstanding, making most of the tackles and gaining yardage practically every time he carried the ball.

School news — Mary Wingate, Sumter High News staff member, won first place in the Winthrop-State story-of-themonth contest with her news story on the coming of William Henry Shaw to head the local school system. She is a sophomore at the Girls High School and a student in the journalism class. Other winners in the first month’s awards in the contest conducted among high school writers in South Carolina were Morris Mazursky, winner of second place in the editorial division and Edgar Klarpp, winner of fifth place in the sports section.

McCoy must exercise every day in order to keep her lungs working. Her cystic fibrosis wasn’t cured by her double lung transplant, but her condition is much improved, and she said she is “getting used to the new normal.”

“It’s not a suffocation feeling.”

She continues to work out every day on her exercise cycle and even jogs a bit on her treadmill, “to keep the lungs active.”

Just going to the store by myself, shopping and realizing I’m not out of breath.”

Heather said all she has been through has been “a very humbling experience. Without all of the love and support and donations and everything, I know I wouldn’t be here.”

What’s left on her “thingsto-do list?”

“Going fishing, walking on the beach, and I’m going to start college back in the fall, probably at Coastal Carolina (University),” she said. “And my family is going to have to get used to not having me around all the time.”

At Coastal, Heather will major in biology, pre-med, with plans to become a pediatric pulmonologist. She’s already completed two years at the University of South Carolina Sumter.

“I feel like I’ve been given so many blessings with my care for so many years, I feel like it’s my passion, and I want to be able to give back to other people, take my experience, but also my knowledge,” she said. “I don’t have to think about breathing; it’s not painful any more.”

She pointed to some medical equipment in the corner.

“No oxygen, no wheelchair.

I feel free.”

Three busloads of Edmunds High School football players pulled into school shortly after noon today, bringing to a close their week of training at Presbyterian College in Clinton. During the five days of workouts on the upstate campus, the 70-odd candidate worked on football fundamentals and installed a basic offense and defense for the coming season which promises to be different from those of past campaigns. Positions have been tentatively assigned on the first two units, and the team will keep up its training pace with two workouts a day from now until school opens Sept. 3.

Morris College’s football Hornets held their first practice of the season yesterday. Equipment was issued in the morning and light drills were held in the afternoon.

Several athletes received awards for their teams in the Boy Scout softball league, including Davis Lee White, Troop 136, third place; Marion Stewart and Titus Duven, 132, first place; Harry Wilson Jr., 235, second place; and Julius Green, 238, outstanding league play.

The trophies were presented last week at Jehovah Baptist Church.

A record field of 80 golfers have begun qualifying at the Sunset Country Club golf championship. Qualifying will continue through Labor Day when players will be divided into flights on the basis of these scores.

Match play will then begin and continue until winners are decided in all five flights. The lowest qualifying score to date is a 71 turned in by

Luther Wimberly.

Nine wrecks marked the Jalopy Main Event at Rebel Raceway Saturday night, and strangely, the faster Sportsman Main Event went off without a restart or a mishap. Joe Lavender and Jimmy Alsbrook won the two big races. True to promoter Clinnie Hyatt’s word the show concluded at about 10:30 p.m.

Education — A total of 1,208 of approximately 1300 seventh, eighth and ninth grade students reported to three District Seventeen Schools for the first of three days of testing.

The largest group comprised 214 eighth-graders who assembled at Edmunds High School.

Seventh-graders are taking the tests at Alice Drive Junior High and ninth-graders are meeting at McLaurin Junior High. Principals of the schools said they were pleased at the turnout because the early dates scheduled may have been of some inconvenience to parents.

Make-up periods for those who are unable to attend this week will be held next month.

The tests being given are basically for aptitudes and achievements, a school official said.

At the movies — Featured at the Sky-Vue Drive-In was “Sodom and Gomorrah” starring Stewart Granger and Pier Angeli. Showing at the Sunset Drive-In were “Mondo Cane” and “The Day Mars Invaded Earth.” Playing at the Sumter Theatre on Monday and Tuesday was “Captain Sinbad,” with “The Thrill of It All” with Doris Day and James Garner beginning on Wednesday. Featured at the Carolina Theater was “Tower of London” with Vincent Price, and the second showing was “Vampire Ballerina.”

Man raises

Butterflies for ceremonies

BY ROB COTTINGHAM rcottingham@theitem.com

F

or Bill Robinson, it’s about providing a product that has an immeasurable impact on the consumer.

Whether it’s a somber occasion, such as a wake or memorial service, or a celebratory event, every special ceremony has unique rituals that provide unforgettable moments of joy or closure.

Robinson will sell the large, prized butterflies for any occasion, but the majority of his clientele use them as part of weddings and funerals.

“There’s something about these butterflies, in particular, that people love,” he said.

“They’re large, colorful and very recognizable — all things that make them popular, I suppose, along with their name.”

While it might only be something learned in elementary school for most, the life cycle of a butterfly is more than just a science project for Robinson: it’s the basis for the structure of his business.

“Every component of my business is structured around the different stages of the butterfly’s life,” he said. “Each step of the process is specially catered to their development, from egg to mature butterfly.”

MILKWEED, CLEANLINESS ARE CRUCIAL

Something very unique to the monarch butterfly species is its reliance on milkweed, a plant that is poisonous to most animals but a crucial element of the orange insect’s life cycle.

“Monarch butterflies use their legs to sense certain chemicals and will only lay

their eggs on the leaves of milkweed plants, where those chemicals are found,” Robinson said. “It is also the sole source of food for them during the caterpillar stages.”

The shortage of milkweed in the area, caused by farmers’ use of herbicides, led Robinson to cultivate his own crop, which is now a 600- to 700-strong population.

Robinson said the process of raising butterflies begins with the harvesting of the eggs found on milkweed leaves, which are then placed in ventilated plastic containers. Before he can begin, however, Robinson must clean the air, surfaces and containers involved.

“We use a mild aerosol to clean the air,” he said. “Then we wipe down all surfaces with bleach wipes. These insects are subject to many diseases, so

we have to make sure things remain sanitary and controlled throughout the process.”

Eventually, those eggs hatch into caterpillars that will feed on milkweed continuously through their maturity. To further stave off mass infections, Robinson only houses 10 to 15 caterpillars per tote. If one population experiences an illness, he can dispose of them without risking a total loss.

“I put fresh milkweed in the containers every day to ensure the caterpillars get optimal nutrients,” Robinson said. “We want as many chrysalises as we can get.”

WAITING AND FEEDING

Once seven to 10 days have passed, the caterpillars that survive climb to the top of the containers and form chrysalises around their bodies.

Inside, the larvae undergo metamorphosis, a process in

which they mature into butterflies.

As far as each group goes, Robinson gets a chance to relax once the caterpillars form their chrysalises.

“At this point, you just have to wait,” he said.

It’s when the butterflies free themselves from their chrysalises that the hard work begins.

“We have to carefully monitor and regulate them once they’re out,” Robinson said.

“We hand feed each and every one of the butterflies to make sure they get enough of the right nutrients to keep them healthy.”

Between feedings, the butterflies are placed in a wine cooler to help preserve them.

Every few days, Robinson pulls the butterflies out and lets them warm up in the sunlight before feeding them a mixture of fructose, water and soy sauce.

“Every creature needs sugar and water to survive,” Robinson said. “We add soy sauce because it contains a plethora of nutrients to them.”

With their motor functions greatly reduced by the cold of the cooler, the butterflies require assistance to feed. Robinson will hold each one and pull out its probiscus with a dental pick and rest it in the solution.

“At that point, they can’t seem to stop,” he said with a laugh. “They’ll sit there and feed for 20 minutes, sometimes.”

BREEDING, SELLING AND SHIPPING

Shortly after they reach maturity, Robinson places groups of butterflies in large mesh containers with a large milkweed plant.

Three monarch butterfly chrysalises hang from the lid of one of Robinson’s breeding totes recently. In seven to 10 days, beautiful monarch butterflies will emerge from each of the pods.

Hopefully, the butterflies mate. The butterflies then lay their eggs on the bottoms of the plant’s leaves, which Robinson then collects to restart the whole process.

Eventually, Robinson has enough butterflies to where he can sell some and still be able to maintain his farm.

When Robinson makes a sale, he either packs the butterflies individually into wax envelopes or into mesh release boxes that can hold many butterflies.

The envelopes or release boxes are then placed into cardboard boxes with a thick wall of styrofoam and an ice pack to preserve and sedate the butterflies. Once the package reaches a customer, the rest is up to him or her.

“Typically, if it’s a same-day release, customers just remove the release boxes or envelopes from the shipping box and sit them out until they’re to be released,” Robinson said. “Otherwise, the butterflies are moved to a refrigerator. All someone has to do after that is remove the butterflies from the fridge. After 30 minutes at room temperature or warmer, you can release the butterflies at any time.”

As far as cost goes, the heavily sought-after insects are fairly priced at $5.50 per butterfly.

“A lot of work goes into them, but we want people to be able to afford them,” Robinson said. “Once they see the butterflies flutter in the air, the moment becomes priceless. It can be so uplifting and healing.”

Four female monarch butterflies feed on a fructose solution at Robinson’s home recently. Stored in a wine cooler for preservation, the butterflies require one-on-one attention to be fed properly in preparation for breeding.

Projects, initiatives necessary to move community forward The Greater Sumter Chamber of Commerce’s mission is “to promote an ideal business environment that supports growth and total community development.”

That is a broad statement that involves many areas of our community, our state and nation. We have over 1,000 member organizations representing 1,350 individuals.

We have had great support from the business community over the past 100 years that the Sumter Chamber has been organized. All of our members are very important

to the success of the Chamber and every segment helps to make the Chamber what it is. Eighty-five percent of our member organizations have 25 or fewer employees. We have members that employ hundreds as well. Our mission is meant to create a climate that provides the business community the essentials that it needs to be successful regardless of size.

The year 2013 begins the chamber’s second 100 years of service to our community. Our priorities for the year hopefully will benefit our community and

help move us forward.

A couple of our priorities are: • Maintain involvement with the leadership of Sumter city and county government to address our community image as perceived by nonresidents. Perception is reality. In today’s world, someone can be on the opposite side of the world and form a perspective just by looking at what is on the Internet about a community. It happens every day with a possible business prospect looking to locate a business in a community.

Our military neighbors who are brought to Shaw Air Force Base with the Air Force or

Army form an opinion about Sumter just by what they see on their computer screen. The chamber in conjunction with our local government entities is working to get our most positive image communicated to everyone who has an interest in Sumter.

• Encourage Sumter County government to study future projects for the Sumter community to include a capital penny sales tax referendum for 2014.

The chamber is not suggesting renewing a tax just for the sake of having more projects that don’t have total community value. We need projects and initiatives that will move our community

forward and demonstrate to prospective industry, businesses and individuals that we are progressive and want growth and prosperity for our citizens. We have no other way of doing this but through imposing on ourselves a means to fund this progress.

The state and federal governments are not coming to our aid to make this happen. We must do this ourselves if it is to happen at all.

The chamber’s complete Program of Work is included on our website at www.sumterchamber.com. For more information on how you can become involved with the chamber, please contact me at (803) 775-1231.

By Candace Havens © 2013 FYI Television, Inc. The new NBC Drama "Crossing Lines," which moves to Sunday at 10 p.m. on NBC, follows the premise of an international unit of crime fighters who band together to find the world's most dangerous criminals.

Louis Daniel (Marc Lavoine, "Armed Hands") heads up the elite team.

Helping him solve cases are wounded New York cop Carl Hickman (William Fichtner, "Prison Break"), Europol Sgt. Eva Vittoria (Gabriella Pession, "Wilfred") and French detective and criminal analyst Anne-Marie San (Moon Dailly, "Commissaire Magellan"). The other members of the team include Irish detective Tommy McConnel (Richard Flood, "Titanic: Blood and Steel") and Berlin police officer Sebastian Berger (Tom Wlaschiha, "Game of Thrones").

The European countries working with no borders is a new concept for all involved, and Michael Dorn (Donald Sutherland), an Inspector in the International Criminal Court system, is trying to help Louis keep the group together.

"I think one of the things that is the DNA in the project is that as the title says, it crosses lines," says executive producer Rola Bauer ("Painkiller Jane"). "We're living in a global world. We're connected by the Internet. We are trying to have certain things that are common to each other through television.

Hollywood has been an example of it in films that transcend the boundaries and are released everywhere.

But what we sometimes forget is how we protect our families.

"When we pitched it to Ed (Bernero, "Criminal Minds") he said it reminded him of how America was before the FBI," continues Bauer.

"Criminals could cross from one state to the other, and where essentially there was no sovereign structured entity that could look after people. And from that, J. Edgar Hoover had set up the FBI. And over in Europe it doesn't exist. So, criminals can cross over without being really monitored or checked anymore. And Europe didn't have anything that was proactive. There's Europol, and there's Interpol, but they didn't really have a structure like that.

"I think what attracts people is that ultimately these crimes, we can see them anywhere in the world," Bauer says. "And this is a team that is proactive. You've seen it in different features where there have been teams from different parts of the world who come together and crack the case. And I think that's an international subject that allows an audience to really connect from a fear factor of how do I protect my family in a normal situation."

Hickman doesn't really want to be a part of the group. He's a broken man with a drug addiction, but he's also good at what he does.

"I think he was betrayed by the police world, and he's reluctant to join a group again," says Bernero. "I think the most important moment is when Louie asked him if he wants to feel like a cop again because, you know, Bill and I had many conversations about his state of mind and what he feels like and how he feels betrayed and sort of lost his identity, not only with his wounding but also with his betrayal of the police

department and his sort of leaving the NYPD. So, it's an ongoing process for him. I think it's something that he, the Hickman character, may never fully embrace being a part of the team."

"I think he's a character who has more than one plate spinning," adds Fichtner. "One of those elements of his life is the bigger picture of why he's in Europe in the first place, which by the end of season one you will get to know what that is. As much as Hickman gives to the group, there are things the group can give him. And all of that begins to reveal itself throughout the first season.

And that single thing alone is one of the big through-lines for the character and one of the things that I really love about that journey because it's always more than just one thing."

There is a great deal of travel involved on the show, which kept the actors on their toes. "Prague was our home base," Fichtner says.

"We spent the majority of the 22 weeks in Prague. You know, this was different from anything I've ever done before. From the perspective of Carl, a New York City cop living in Amsterdam, it was great for me, as an actor, to be a fish out of water.

That was exactly what was going on.

The opening episodes took us into a park in Paris, and different places in Paris, France. Some of the episodes took us to the South of France. So, I think you can get the idea that as we went on this tour it was remarkable because the places change and the people changed and the locations changed. And it was fascinating and unlike anything that I've ever experienced. I've shot films where we were on location, but nothing like this."
