Commissioners Tommy Melton and Warren Watson voted against extending the line, while Cindy Walker, Ray Gasperson and Renée McDermott voted in favor. Melton and Watson said they would agree only if the money was taken out of the $20,000 the county has set aside for economic development next year. Melton said he supports the agricultural center, but the EDC money is sitting there with no designated use. Watson said the

county set a precedent in the past not to fund water lines to noncounty-owned property and the money set aside for water line extensions should go to extend water to homes. Walker, Gasperson and McDermott said the money should come out of the county’s water line extension fund. Gasperson said $14,000 of the extension is to run a main trunk line and he thinks that is county money well spent. “We owe a great debt of gratitude to the agricultural board and Lynn Sprague (agriculture

economic development director),” Gasperson said. “It’s just amazing what a really motivated person and motivated committee can do." Gasperson also said the county will see huge benefits from the $20,000 in EDC funding. Construction of the water line extension will be done by Tugaloo, which has constructed other county water lines over the past couple of years. The county will spend $14,567 for the main trunk line of approximately 578 linear feet and $3,967 for 560 linear feet of a two-inch water line to the property. The contract will

also include disconnecting an existing well on the property and tying the building in to the public water supply. Commissioners directed county manager Ryan Whitson to award the construction contract as quickly as possible and to fund the extension out of funding from next year’s budget, which will begin July 1. The county also placed about $9,000 in next year’s budget to pay for utilities at the agricultural center for the first year until the center can become self sufficient.

The number of places producing locally grown food in Polk County is growing rapidly, and it shows in the "2010 Local Food Guide for Western North Carolina." The guide, recently released by the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project (ASAP), includes nearly 20 agricultural operations in Polk County. Lynn Sprague, director of agricultural economic development in Polk County, says he has been introducing producers to ASAP and encouraging them to take advantage of its resources. “ASAP is one of the best marketing resources for farmers in Western North Carolina,” says Sprague. “ASAP not only publishes the food guide, but offers direct marketing cost share grants, business planning and marketing courses.” Sprague adds that the food guide has become a forum for businesses, farmers and others with similar interests to contact each other and share information. Nearly 100,000 copies of the free guide will be distributed this year at stores across the region, according to ASAP. “ASAP is helping to rebuild the local economy, preserve rural land and heritage, encourage sustainable agricultural practices, and increase access to fresher, healthier food,”

CSA customers subscribe to a farm, purchasing a useofnew logo year’s harvest the farm’s goods. Each week, they receive a of effectiveshare 2/8/10 what’s in season. For Polk County, the guide includes the Green Creek, Saluda, Tryon and Columbus tailgate markets.

McAbee was released on a $5,000 bond a couple of weeks ago. Cisney was also released this week on a $5,000 bond. Polk County Sheriff Donald Hill says since Cisney’s arrest, there have been no other break-ins in the area and the sheriff’s office is hoping the arrests have put a stop to the theft ring. The sheriff’s office has recovered some stolen property. The property stolen from the homes included electronics and televisions. The break-ins are still under investigation and further charges are pending, according to sheriff’s office officials.

ARC grant to help 30 people start own building diagnostics businesses One of five grants to benefit WNC region Five grants totaling $835,000 were awarded by the Appalachian Regional Commission to support projects in Western North Carolina, Gov. Bev Perdue announced last week. *** Most narrowly focused on Polk County was a grant to the Isothermal Planning and Development Commission (IPDC) of $100,000 to help create green jobs in Rutherford, McDowell and Polk counties. IPDC plans to use the funds to train 30 individuals in the building diagnostics field. After the training is completed, the individuals will be able to lease three sets of building diagnostics equipment, allowing them to start their own businesses. Building diagnostics is the process of data collection regarding conditions, detection and analysis of faults/abnormality/defects in building materials and fabrics. This process often uses advanced technology such as infrared thermography, ultrasound, radar, vibration, and lasers.

Seventy percent of the funds of this grant will go to provide suupport and technical assistance to economic, community development, and long range planning needs. Some of the funds will be the Western North Carolina Housing Partnership, a project administered in Polk County by the Isothermal Planning and Development Commission. The project works on affordable housing issues, including recruiting developers to develop affordable housing in a 31-county service area. Also receiving funds will be the 21st Century Communities Program, administered by the N.C. Department of Commerce. The 21st Century Communities Program, a federal program begun in 2001, seeks to assist selected counties with responding to business and industry closures and the loss of thousands of jobs in the manufacturing and textile industries. *** Burke County received $100,000 to benefit the Foothills Higher Education Center, a partnership between Western Piedmont Community College in Morganton, Appalachian State University and Western Carolina University. The center on the Western Piedmont Community College campus trains workers for jobs in the health care industry, offering bachelor’s degrees and certification courses in nursing, social work, recreational therapy, laboratory sciences or health care management. *** The Conservation Fund, a non-profit headquartered in Arlington, Va., which works to conserve land, train leaders and invest in conservation at home, was awarded $100,000.

Friday, June 25, 2010

According to an informal survey conducted by the N.C. Employment Security Commission recently, N.C. employers have about 2,000 position types, representing about 4,000 jobs, they are seeking to fill over the next month to 45 days. To obtain this information managers of the 89 ESC offices statewide called or visited the employers to learn the near term local hiring prospects. “While our state’s current job picture is certainly not where we would like for it to be,” says Lynn R. Holmes, chairman of the ESC, “this is

very good news and not what we were hearing a year ago from our business customers.” In addition to handling unemployment benefits, ESC offices offer job search assistance. They place thousands each year into jobs by working with employers. “This part of the ESC is critical,” Holmes says, “since it stabilizes communities; brings pride back to workers who often feel lost without a job; and lowers unemployment, which helps the level of the Unemployment Insurance Trust Fund.

Tryon officials recently announced that another shipment of curbside recycling bins has arrived. Town of Tryon residents who have not already received their curbside recycling bins with the Tryon seal on the sides may pick up their curbside bins and information sheets at Tryon Town Hall. Bins are distributed in sets of two, one green bin and one blue bin. Blue bins are for ‘commingled’ bottles and cans: • Aluminum and steel cans • Green, brown and clear glass bottles • #1 and #2 plastic bottles • Plastic jugs with a neck smaller than the body Green bins are for mixed paper: • Newspapers • Magazines

• Junk mail • Copy paper • Flattened cardboard • Chipboard (like cereal box-

Tryon Public Works Director Joel Burrell stated, “This is good news for the many customers who have requested these curbside bins since the last supply was exhausted. Recycling is good for keeping sanitation rates down and for protecting the environment.” These curbside recycling bins were purchased with the assistance of a grant from the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Trust Fund that is administered by the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Pollution Prevention and Environmental Assistance (NCDENR-DPPEA). The grant was a 1:10 match grant with the town providing $1 for every $10 of grant funding toward the purchase cost. This was the final shipment included in the grant award.

Walter Dalton conducted a site visit of Pavillon, a not-for$12.95+tax • 8 & under, $6.95+tax profit drug and alcohol addiction treatment center in Western 864-457-4581 North Carolina. After touring - page 31 726 S. Howard Ave. • Landrum, SCTRYonbapTisT the facility and meeting with (1/2 mile south of Hwy 14 on Hwy 176) Pavillon’s CEO Anne Vance, Lt. Gov.

Not sssm-034061 only is it a life-saving resource for those who struggle with the Changed 12/30 for 12/31 disease of addiction, it is also a 1/6, W,F thru 3/31/10 powerful economic engine for sssm-034102 this community.” ChANGed for 2/3 & tfn In addition to bringing quality health care services to the area, sssm-034727 Pavillon makes a significant 2/17 impact on the local economy. sssm-034818 Recent construction of two new buildings on Pavillon’s Mill Spring campus generated revenues for local businesses including contractors, subcontractors, and those in related fields. Lt. Gov. Dalton remarked that he “expects Pavillon to become an even more vital part of the local economy.” Vance said she remains hopeful that the Parity Bill, which was passed by Congress in 2008 to eliminate discrimination by insurance companies with regard to coverage for treatment for the disease of drug and alcohol addiction, will move the public policy dialogue in the direction of greater prevention and treat-

ment of addiction as a matter of public health. Said Vance, “The passage of the Parity Bill is progress, but more needs to be done to dispel the stigma of addiction so that those who need help will seek it. Our continuing mission here at Pavillon is to educate the public about the disease of addiction, and to reinforce the fact that it is treatable.” As part of this ongoing effort, Vance has increased Pavillon’s involvement in the community, ranging from participation in Rutherford County Community Engagement and Polk County Leadership Initiative to an extensive outreach of its Children’s Program. Pavillon’s Children’s Program is prevention-focused and is directed toward children affected by a parent or relative addicted to drugs or alcohol. It is offered free of charge to children in the community through partnerships with the North Carolina Drug Treatment Courts, Boys and Girls Clubs, homeless shelters and other organizations. Pavillon’s Children’s Program has recently received recognition for its services in the form of grants from the Janirve Foundation, the Cannon Foundation, the Community Foundation for Western North Carolina, and the Rutherfordton Kiwanis, among others.

TFAC receives technology grant from PCCF The Polk County Community Foundation awarded a grant for sound equipment and computers to help fully renovate the auditorium at Tryon Fine Arts Center. New speakers and a mixing board replaced outdated equipment that was reaching the end of its life span, enabling the efforts of the very best performers to reach the ears and hearts of audience members. Two computer monitors purchased will help run a new lighting board, provided by a grant from Electronic Theater Controls. Because Tryon Fine Arts Center strives to produce a variety of shows for a variety of audiences, equipment must be continually updated and able to backup any aspect of a performance that might go wrong at any given moment.

average of 25 percent of the cost of police vehicles each year, and this does not include the insurance. 3-Since a portion of our town vehicles have diesel engines, I think we should investigate biodiesel. I know several people who make it for less than $1.00 per gallon. I bought a diesel VW in 2009, and I am getting over forty miles per gallon on the road, with an average of town and highway mileage for the first twenty thousand miles of over 39MPG. I do not know if bio-diesel is feasible for the Town; however, it is worth investigating. 4-When the drug dog retires, we should eliminate the vehicle that is set up with the cage in it for a dog. This can be a savings because we will not have to dog proof a car or pretty much restrict a car to the trainer. 5-I also know that servicing vehicles as often as recommended by the manufacturer is sometimes not enough. The last four vehicles that I owned I changed the oil more often than was required saving wear and tear on the engine. With the exception of one that I traded early, I got over 115,000 miles on each car, getting a good price when I sold them. This saves on wear and tear of the engine. 6- Are we to the point where we could use a vehicle pool? The Town could have a limited number of each type of vehicle and users could devise a schedule of use. We already do this with some of the vehicles. 7- I researched cars that run on compressed natural gas at a show a couple of years ago. We need to see if this is feasible here. It might do for a vehicle that just stayed primarily inside the city limits. 8- We have a car at the water department. Do we need it? Could the meter reader go pick up the samples and take them to be mailed? Do not forget that when I took office in 2001 we were approximately 1.5 million in the red. We worked hard to reduce employees from 46 to 36, reduced vehicles at Town Hall from two to zero, reduced the police vehicles from

six to four, eliminated the health insurance benefit for retirees ( way too costly), and eliminated the manager’s car. While I am aware of the fact that all of these recommendations might not be easy to be implemented, I am sure that some of them can be. Each dollar that we save is a dollar earned. As I said a few years ago, we must do something or the Town will lose workers or have to increase taxes. We are now at that crossroads, and the only way to preserve our Town is to work on a policy of “workforce” reduction, raise taxes, or cut services. The magic bullet of cutting costs that so many are sure we can do is, as usual, easy to write letters about, but the reality is we have been doing this all along. — J. Alan Peoples, Mayor

Local organizations receive Summertime Kids grants from CFWNC

With the end of the school year upon us, children are looking forward to summer and enriching experiences made possible 2x2.5 through Summertime Kids grants from The Community Foundation 5/21 of Western North Carolina. These Celt-036726 grants will enable hundreds of children to participate in programs ranging from summer art and craft lawn procamps - pageat6Penland School of Crafts in Mitchell County to the summer reading program at the Polk County Public Library. A total of $55,905 in grants has been awarded to 31 nonprofit organizations or public agencies that serve less fortunate children living in the 18-county mountain region. Specifically, the program targets low-income children, children living in remote or rural areas, children with disabilities or children who have suffered from neglect or abuse. Polk County Public Library, Polk County Schools and Saluda School all received grants from the Community Foundation of Western North Carolina. The funding decisions were made with the assistance of young philanthropists, ages 13 to 17, who Visit www.forestcitybaseball.com or worked with The Community Foundation staff to learn how to make call 828-245-0000 for more info effective grants.

evaluated grant proposals and made funding recommendations. “Summer is a time when memories are made, interests are ignited, imaginations catch fire and possibilities often seem endless. These grants help make experiences possible for children who otherwise might not have a chance to participate in some of the wonderful opportunities nonprofits bring to our communities,” said Elizabeth Brazas, president of The Community Foundation. “We believe that every child should look forward to the summer, no matter what their financial situation or physical abilities.” The Community Foundation of Western North Carolina promotes and expands regional philanthropy and develops funds that address changing needs and opportunities in the 18 counties of Western North Carolina. CFWNC has awarded more than $100 million in grants to nonprofit organizations and public institutions since 1978.

Each of them has a heart-wrenching story, but that’s not what they are about today, not right away. It’s nine o’clock in the morning and eight women have gathered at T.J.’s as they do every Friday for coffee, and maybe a warm biscuit or an English muffin, and companionship. You might expect LOLs… little old ladies. They are not. They are a cross section of the community - young, old, middleaged - eight women, tied by the common thread of loss. That loss may be a mother, a son, more likely a husband. Some are closer to their personal tragedies than others, some are coping better than (Continued on page 28)

Fabulous 4th Bike Tour July 4 Tour fundraiser for Thermal Belt Rotary Club of Tryon The 27th annual Fabulous 4th Bike Tour is scheduled for Sunday, July 4. This event is the primary fundraiser for the Thermal Belt Rotary Club of Tryon. All of the profits from the event are donated to worthwhile charities in the area. The profits from last year’s event were in excess of $10,000. The money went to Boy Scout Troops 150, 155, and 659, Steps to Hope, Red Cross, Har-

mon Field, Polk County Youth Football, Polk County Rescue Squad, Thermal Belt Amateur Radio Club, Polk County 4H Clubs, Tryon Fire Department, ARC of Rutherford, books for 4th grade students and scholarships at Polk County and Landrum High Schools. The tour will begin with a mass start at 8 a.m. at Harmon Field in Tryon and will cross two states and four counties before ending back at Harmon Field. The 2010 route will be the same as the previous year. Approximately 500 riders

are expected to participate in this event. Members of the local Amateur Radio Club will be providing emergency communications from mobile and stationary locations along the route. The Polk County Rescue Squad will assist with a mobile medical unit, and sweep vehicles will pick up disabled riders along the entire route. Riders may pre-register for the Fabulous 4th Tour by completing an application online at www.fabulous4thbiketour. org. Onsite registration will begin at 6:30 a.m. on the day

of the tour. The tour route was originally designed and organized in 1983 and the first ride was in that year. It has since grown to be one of the most popular short tours in the southeast with more than 5,400 feet of cumulative climbing with both long hills and short steep ones. Early sponsors for the event include Nature’s Storehouse, Prince Companies, Quiksolve Solutions LLC, Medicap Pharmacy, Macon Bank, Bill Andersen, Jim and Jean Scott, Pete and Ann Crandall, and more.

the low end at around 1.8% as compared to the United Kingdom (2.9%), Canada (3.4%), France (2.9%), Netherlands (3.5%), Ireland (3.7%) and the winner, Luxembourg (8.6%). Iceland (1.1%) and Germany (1%) come in lower than the U.S. but keep in mind that they both, like every other country, have valueadded taxes (VAT) that aren’t counted as income tax. Now let’s look at individual tax rates. And to keep it simple, let’s just look at the “Married, 2 kids” category. The U.S. rate is given as 11.9%. If you want to live in countries with lower rates you’ll have to move to Ireland (8.1%) or Iceland (11%). The next highest rate relative to the U.S. is Luxembourg at 12.2% followed by New Zealand (14.5%), Korea (16.2%), Mexico (18.2%) and Switzerland (18.6%). So you want to talk about “taxed to death”, the winner is Poland at 42.1% followed closely by Belgium at 40.3%. The overall U.S. taxation level (Federal, state & local) compared with our GDP is approximately 28%. There are plenty of countries that pay less including Japan and Korea at around 27% and Mexico at around 8%. Middle Eastern countries have the lowest rates and they are all less than 5%. In a way, you could say that we are paying

for their governance costs when we buy their oil. Our neighbor, Canada, pays around 33% but it appears that about every other developed nation pays significantly more than the U.S. The winner in the developed world is Denmark at 50%. What does all this tell us? Obviously, what we’ve been doing for the last 30 years is not working. We’ve all been told that lower corporate taxes would lead to healthier growth with a resultant increase in the amount of taxes paid into the Treasury. Well, I no longer believe that is so. You could easily conclude that U.S. corporations are not re-investing their tax incentives into ventures that generate taxable U.S. income. Many of my friends and family are fond of saying “we are taxed to death.” I’d say that the people of Poland and Belgium are close to that honor but “We the People” of the U.S. can’t credibly make that complaint given our rank in the list of countries that clearly pay at higher rates. It is time for us to re-think our old impressions and beliefs about governance. Taxes paid or tax credits given should be like investments that give a return in economic growth and raise the boat for everybody on board. The benefactors of current governance priorities are sinking the boat. Rodney Gibson is the former Mayor of Saluda.

Summer hoops camps set Do you have youngsters who are interested in basketball? on July 12-14, the seth Vining Jr. Foundation will be co-sponsoring a shooting camp for students, grades 1-12, at the polk County High school gymnasium. Costs are very reasonable for the camp. Families with more than one student will receive a fee discount. this summer the camp will be under the direction of Josh Mcentire, varsity boys head basketball coach. they will be joined by Craig Culbreth, Michelle Fagan, Chauncey Barber and a host of volunteer coaches. “We feel like our camp will be instructive for everyone,” said Josh Mcentire, camp director. “the camp will be structured just like last year’s camp.”

elementary students (grades 1-6) will go to camp from 9 a.m. until noon. Middle-school students (grades 6-8) will meet in the afternoon from 1 until 4. High school students (grades 9-12) will go from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. For a registration form or more information, contact Mcentire at (828) 699-8159.

one great shot a student hit than anything else.” and that’s where salmon has found a kind of peace – on that good walk spoiled, on the greens and on the driving range. she splits time between here and palm springs, Calif., where she teaches hundreds of lessons a week, “fixing” the golf games of the eternally hopeful – and/or hopeless (and we know who we are), and Links o’tryon where she maintains a busy but much more relaxed schedule. salmon said the game, the sunshine and the students have kept her own hopes from fading, even on the “bad days.” she sought a place to die and ended up finding all kinds of reasons to live. there are so many misconceptions about the game, so many broken, confused swings and psyches to be fixed. “I really can’t go anywhere,” salmon smiled. “I’ve got too many people depending on me to keep their golf games together. or at least I like to think that’s the way it is.” I believe her, the same way I know that golf is the least of all the things we can learn from her through this whole awful thing.

(continued from page 42)

It’s not genetic. It’s not contagious. there’s no cure, and in the worst cases, it is fatal. about 300,000 americans have the disease, so salmon calls it an “orphan,” meaning that it is truly no one’s cause. “the drug companies aren’t very interested in developing a cure for it because so few people have (scleroderma),” she said. “there’s not enough money in it.” But then, the conversation turns back to golf and to life and the way the two have worked hand in hand to fend off death for nine sometimes trying and painful years. she helps to raise money for scleroderma research and then returns to her old job, helping golf’s forlorn work their way through the frustrations that come with loving a game that Mark twain called, “a good walk spoiled.” “I used to want to win a teacher of the year award,” salmon said shrugging. “But now, no. My reward is seeing a student improve. I get more satisfaction of hearing about

Indians ink PCHS star Brandon Jolley By John Clayton

Brandon Jolley left polk County High school with his name all over the school’s baseball record book, something he hopes to see happen all over again as he continues his career at UsC salkehatchie. Jolley signed a grant-in-aid Monday with the junior college, which is part of the University of south Carolina system. Indians head coach Bubba Dorman said he was thrilled to get the third-baseman/pitcher for the next two seasons. “I know the coaches here (at pCHs) and so I know I’m getting a good player who knows the game and one who plays it the right way,” Dorman said. Jolley said he visited the allendale, s.C. campus twice before finally deciding to accept the scholarship offer. “At first, I said no, I didn’t want to leave home,” said Jolley. “But after I thought about it, I decided I can’t sit here in polk County all my life. . . . It’d be a waste of talent.” He said he hopes his two years at the junior college level will be a stepping stone toward his dream of playing in the Major Leagues. “I want it to go further than college,” Jolley said. “It’s always been a dream of of mine to play

up there in the Majors.” Jolley, a four-time all-conference performer, left pCHs as the all-time school leader in three offensive and two pitching categories. He set school records in hits (101), runs scored (86), mult-hit games (27), pitching wins (27) and pitching strikeouts (198). as a senior, Jolley batted a team-high .449. on the mound, he was 9-2 with a 2.07 earned run average. “He’s a two-way player, and I like that,” said Dorman. “guys who can pitch and hit are tough to find, and he can do both.” the Wolverines also won 69 games during Jolley’s career, a school record for victories by a single class. a winning attitude is also something Dorman is looking to infuse after a 13-41-1 record this past season. He said he believes Jolley will be part of a turnaround for the Indians, who play in NJCaa region X against schools such as powerhouse spartanburg Methodist, Louisburg College, Cape Fear Community College and Catawba Valley Community College. “We struggled with pitching,” Dorman said. “our best pitcher had one win and a 4.07 era. the rest had eras over 7, so I think he can help us there and with the bat.”

A. a personal representative is held to a high standard of care in handling the affairs of a decedent. there are many duties and obligations that are incurred. For example, Mary sample is a personal representative of an intestate estate. the gross value of the estate was $1.7 million. Mary was a week late in filing federal and state estate tax returns. the authorities imposed a penalty for failure to file a timely return. Mary will be personally liable for paying the penalties if it can be shown that the tax could have been filed and paid on time.

dles on the faucet, replace them with easy-to-turn lever handles, or replace the entire fixture with an ADA compliant faucet with a single lever handle, or the new Delta touch technology faucet. And for safety purposes, set your mom’s hot water tank at 120 degrees to prevent water burns. • Stove: If her vision is poor, clearly mark the controls on her stove or replace her dial controls with larger easier to read dials. And if memory is an issue, an automatic stove shut-off device (see cookstop.com, stoveguardintl. com and pioneeringtech.com) is a smart solution. • Microwave: If your mom’s microwave is mounted above her stove, consider moving it to a countertop. It makes it safer and easier to reach. • Other areas: If she has kitchen throw rugs, to reduce the possibility of tripping, secure them to the floor with double-sided rug tape or replace them with nonskid floor mats. If standing for long periods causes her problems, get a kitchen stool so she can sit down while she works. And to help her arthritic hands, invest in some OXO Good Grip (oxo. com) or other ergonomic kitchen utensils. User-Friendly Appliances If you’re looking to buy your mom some new appliances, manufacturers like General Electric, Whirlpool, Bosch and Siemens make a variety of products designed with seniors in mind.

Aching Cook Dear Aching, The standing, bending, reaching, gripping and lifting that often comes with cooking, makes the kitchen one of the most challenging rooms in the house for seniors to use. Here’s what you can do. Small Modifications There are lot’s of simple solutions and inexpensive add-ons that can make a big difference in making your mom’s kitchen safer and easier to maneuver. Consider these tips for the: • Cabinets: Start by reorganizing your mom’s kitchen cabinets so that the items she frequently uses are within comfortable reach. You can also make her cabinets and pantry easier to access by installing pull-out shelves or lazy susans, or for the hard-to-reach upper shelves, a pull-down shelving system (see rev-a-shelf.com). D-shaped pull-handles for the cabinets and drawers are also recommended because they’re more comfortable for arthritic hands to grasp than knobs. • Lights: Aging eyes need more light, so install the highest wattage bulbs allowed in your mom’s fixtures, and to brighten up her kitchen countertops add task lighting under her cabinets. • Faucet: If she has twist han-
