Saluda says ridgeline ordinance blocks commercial development in township by Leah Justice

Saluda commissioners said this week they have concerns about Polk County’s relatively new mountain and ridgeline protective ordinance (MRPO), which prohibits commercial development other than residential above elevations of 1,650 ft. Because all of Saluda Town-

ship is above 1,650 feet, the ordinance affects all Saluda properties except those inside Saluda city limits, which are controlled by city regulations. Polk County officials say the MRPO was intended to protect against over-building and overclearing in the higher areas of the county for both residential and commercial building.

Serving Polk County and Upper Spartanburg and Greenville Counties

“Other counties, including Buncombe County, have experienced considerable construction in the steeper and higher areas of their county, and citizens wanted to avoid that in Polk County,” says Polk County Commissioner Renée McDermott. “[Polk residents] want to preserve Polk (Continued on page 7)

• Saluda says (continued from page 1)

County’s rural atmosphere, natural resources and scenic beauty. The people of Polk County have said that over and over again.” The solution to Saluda's problem, McDermott says, is for the city to annex properties into city limits when it wants to allow commercial development on those properties. Saluda commissioner John Morgan said Monday during a Saluda City Council meeting that he wants the city to be proactive and make sure the county is planning for the future. Council gave approval on Monday for John Morgan and Mayor Fred Baisden to speak with the Polk County Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Committee, which was recently established to work on combining all the county’s ordinances into one document and is scheduled to review ordinances and make

needed changes in the process. Morgan and others have said that sites are available just outside city limits that would be attractive for commercial development. “We need to raise our voice and have a little more control over what’s going on,” Morgan said. “There’s level ground right outside city limits.” The city was recently approached regarding a voluntary annexation request for property off Holbert’s Cove Road, whose owners said they were planning to build an RV park. McDermott says the best solution for the proposed RV park, if Saluda thinks it is important to have that development, is to voluntarily annex the property. “Wouldn’t that be better than allowing commercial exploitation of all the steep slopes and higher altitude areas in Polk County, which is what would have to happen if the mountain and ridgeline protection ordinance were

amended to allow commercial activity?” McDermott asked. But the proposal would require a satellite (non-contiguous) annexation, which brings up concerns over state law that says a municipality can annex only 10 percent of its total property through satellite annexations. At some point, the city will not be able to annex additional outside properties, which would limit commercial development. In order to be exempt from the law, cities and towns have to petition the state for an exemption. The only town in Polk County that currently has the exemption is Columbus. The annexation of the proposed RV park property has not been brought back to the table in a couple of months, but Saluda is considering adding conditional use permits to its zoning ordinance that would allow the city to put use restrictions on some properties. Saluda Township resident

page

Betsy Burdett suggested that the county could simply change the definition of terms in the MRPO and add “that which has steep slopes.” She said because of the restrictions, her husband can’t build a fix-it garage on his 45 acres, which has no steep slopes. The MRPO ordinance restricts building above 1,650 ft. in the zoned areas of the county, which includes Saluda Township. There are other restrictions at higher elevations and different regulations for zoned and unzoned areas of the county. The ordinance allows residential properties and home based businesses, but nothing commercial. The ordinance, along with an erosion ordinance, was adopted by county commissioners in June, 2009 with overwhelming support from residents and unanimous approvals by the Polk County Planning Board and board of commissioners.

After encountering some issues in its first year with conflicting times and places for school bus drop-offs, the Saluda Tailgate Market reported positive results for this past season. The Saluda Business Association sponsored outdoor market is held every Friday during about six months of the year at the city-owned parking lot off Main Street. Saluda Business Association’s Shelly DeKay reviewed this year’s event during Monday’s Saluda City Council meeting. Commissioners gave their support of the market, thanked the business association for what they said is an asset to the city and gave the business association approval to begin planning for the market in 2011. DeKay said the market started a website this year at saludatail-

gate.com. This year 49 different growers from Polk and Henderson counties participated in the market. The market this year saw a total of 385 vendor visits, with an average of 15 vendors per week. The market was organized and run by volunteers who totaled more than 500 hours of volunteer work. DeKay said at least six people volunteered every week. One volunteer – Nora Parks Anderson – was recognized on Monday for her dedication to the tailgate market. Local businesses gave Anderson gift baskets in appreciation for her work. The tailgate market initially encountered problems because the parking lot was also used for school buses to drop off students. The issues were resolved prior to this year’s event, however, by pushing the tailgate market time later in the day.

tices of various kinds in the evening such as Gregorian chant schola. There are also evenings free to relax or study. Barone is studying the old Latin liturgy, which stretches back to Christian history without any major changes to at least the sixth century. Many countries around the world still hold to the old Latin. “It has a sense of timelessness that reflect the eternal truths of the faith," Barone says. "Latin liturgy was also the single largest inspiration for Western culture – for instance, the great cathedrals and Gregorian chant, which were specifically designed for this liturgy, shaping Western architecture and music. More importantly, this liturgy fueled the spiritual lives of many saints. “The first time I experienced the Latin Mass six years ago, I did not understand it nor did I like it. Like classical music it made no sense to me, but I knew there was something intensely good going on. I gave it a few more chances and it began to flow and make sense to me. I soon loved it. Its profound depth and mystery captures my mind and soul like no other experience on earth. Some describe the experience of this liturgy as a sober inebriation.” Barone is back at Mount St. Mary in Maryland now, but he says his year spent at Our Lady of Guadalupe Seminary in Omaha, Nebraska was a fantastic experience. He was enrolled in a spirituality program there. His contact with the priestly fraternity of St. Peter and several visits there inspired this process. Barone was attracted to the fact that this is the only seminary in the United States that holds on to the many traditions prior to Vatican II. Barone says that Vatican II was good, but much confusion ensued after the council which still lasts to this day. “My experience in Nebraska was priceless insofar as it more

firmly rooted me in Catholicism’s own traditions. In the end I am ever grateful for having the experience of both a traditional and modern seminary.” Barone says some of his favorite activities are hockey, politics, Gregorian chant, conversational Latin, and annoying Father Winslow. Barone says he values his faith most in life and loves his parents, who raised him and support him in his vocation to the priesthood. “It has been a pleasure to work with Fr. Patrick Winslow at St. John the Baptist Church here in Tryon," Barone says. "He has been bringing back some of the traditional elements in the vibrant and growing church of St. John the Baptist.”

Fellowship dinner tomorrow offers information about adoption Bethany Christian Services will host a fellowship dinner tomorrow in an effort to locate families interested in adopting orphans. The event will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, November 13 at the Crest Center and Pavilion in Asheville. Bethany Christian Services is a Christ-centered, not-for-profit, pro-life, adoption agency with more than 80 locations in 32 states and orphan care and other ministries in more than a dozen countries. Bethany is the largest adoption agency in the country and placed 1,716 children nationwide in 2009. Bethany says that there are more than 163 million orphans around the world. The local branch (www.Bethany.org/ asheville) says it is attempting to reduce that number and to make sure each child in North Carolina has a loving family.

Finally, at the age of 18, his life was transformed forever when he found a permanent home with a loving family. On-site registration for the dinner is scheduled for 5:45 p.m. Seating is limited for the adultsonly event, so reservations are required. For more information or to RSVP, please visit www.

When I learned about Mission’s Camp Bluebird, I was very excited about an adult cancer camp where I could meet others like me. Camp Bluebird was like a family reunion. I met survivors of all different types of cancer who had been attending the camp for years. It was an inspiration to me to see people who were 20- and 30-year survivors – to hear their stories, to feel the hope and the love, and to know that life was not ending. It was just beginning.

Bark-n-the-Park tomorrow to benefit Lennie's Kids

Friday, November 12, 2010

On Saturday, November 13, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m., Barkn-the-Park will be held at Harmon Field walking trails and covered picnic area. The event will be raising money for Lennie's Kids, an organization that works with Foothills Humane Society and local vets to assist sick, injured, and abandoned animals by helping provide medical care and placing them in foster and forever homes. A large percentage of these animals come into the shelter with high-level heartworms and are difficult to adopt-out because of the extraordinary expense to treat this condition. Rather than euthanize these animals, Lennie Rizzo, of Lennie's Kids, finds willing adopters or foster homes, and then takes on much of the financial responsibility for their medical care himself. To participate in this fundraiser, walkers (with or without their pets) should get family, friends, co-workers, and even strangers to sponsor them by donating money for Lennie's Kids. There is no minimum donation required. Walkers

will collect the money from sponsors and bring it, along with their walking shoes, on Nov. 13 to take part in this event. Harmon Field's trail is just over one mile, and participants can walk as much or little as they desire, even looping multiple times if they wish. Dogs must be properly leashed. Company, church, and school groups are encouraged to take part. There will be concessions for lunch with grilled hamburgers and hotdogs, chips, and drinks available, with all proceeds going to Lennie's Kids. There will also be a silent auction and a raffle with items donated by local businesses. Green Creek Miniature Horse Farm is bringing some of their horses for rides and petting. All school age children who get sponsors and participate in Bark-N-the-Park will get free lunch from the concessions. To register to participate in this event, please call Ami/Terri at Gibbs Welding and Crane Service at 864-457-4544, or Terri Edwards at 828-863-4231 or cell 828-817-5857.

B5 Letter to the Editor

To the Editor: Congratulations on winning back seats on the Board of Commissioners. We’re looking forward to working with you. In your ads before the election, you suggested you have ideas for cutting spending and saving taxpayers’ money. As you know, the current board cut spending considerably, in part because it had to be done to offset lower state sales tax revenues. Nevertheless, if you have good ideas about saving more money for the taxpayers, we’re all for it and open to your suggestions. In your ads and in answers to questions, you talked about bringing jobs to Polk County. We’ve been working on that. Among other things, we’ve been taking steps to improve our Economic Development department, and we look forward to your input on how to do that best. Now that you’re elected, please tell us your specific ideas and how they can be worked into the County budget. We surely agree with you about working closely with the Board of Education and school officials, including the people at Isothermal Community College, to provide the resources and support for the best education possible for our students of all ages. And we join you in your pledge to work with law enforcement, EMS, the rescue squad and the fire departments to keep Polk County safe and secure. The election is over. The future is before us. Let’s all work together to make it the best future it can possibly be for all of Polk County. – Cindy Walker, Ray Gasperson, Renée McDermott

gia, at the Good Horseman Breed show, Delacroix MF won the top honors – Grand Champion. Top placing Hanoverian and High Score BITUSA were also accolades for this colt with enormous walk, electric trot and charisma. Dawn MF, by Don Principe out of an Elite dam by Londonderry, was third in her yearling filly class. Diamond Court MF, a 2010 gray colt by Don Principe out of Royal Gem/Royal Diamond, did exceptionally well. He was named in honor of Countryney King-Dye. Labor Day saw the Marydell trailer leaving for the NCDCTA Breed show in Raleigh, N.C. Once again, Don Principe offspring shown brightly. A 2010 filly out of a Hanoverian approved Holsteiner dam, bred and owned by Leslie Heintzberger was second in the

filly class and Reserve Foal Champion. Flavuis MF, 2010 colt by Fidertanz out of Diora (DeNiro/ Grande) won his class and powered his way to the Foal Championship. Diamond Girl MF, Don Principe/Royal Gem, a three-year-old filly, was second in her class with an overall charm and three very good gaits. From this show, “Princess” went on to Brendan Curtis to start her under saddle training in preparation for her Mare Performance test in 2011. Another group of Marydell Hanoverians set out for Georgia on September 17 to compete in the South East Regional final and the two breed shows hosted by the Good Horseman foundation. On Saturday, Diamond Court won his class, was Foal Champion and High Score Born in the USA winner. He brought home two crystal browbands, one in red, white and blue, that he will

put to good use in the future as King-Dye’s riding horse. Dawn MF was third in her class with over 80 percent. Delacroix MF was figuring out that he had shoes on for the first time as he had a sole bruise and needed protection from hard ground. Due to the weight of the shoes, he lost some impulsion and reach, but still placed second in his class. Donna Hall with her new owner’s daughter, Katie Cutrer, placed second in her class. Under Janet Foy, an International Dressage Judge, Sunday started out with a flourish. Diamond Court MF once again won both his class and the foal championship. Donna Hall MF had a super round to win her class with the high score of 85.4 percent earning a perfect “10” on her walk. This was the High Score of the Show, earning her the crystal browband for herself. Donna also was the Reserve Filly Champion.

On Saturday, Grand Prix rider and supporter of American bred horses Elly Schobel spoke for Dawn MF to become her future international prospect. The very next day Dawn won her class, Filly, Young and then the Grand Championship as well as High Placing Hanoverian. The highlight of this show was the Regional Championships. Diamond Court MF had tired a bit but mustered enough sparkle to place as the Reserve Foal Champion. Dawn MF, also a bit tired from all the runs in the heat, finished as the Reserve Filly Champion for the South East Region. Less than a week later, the trailer headed out once again, this time to the largest breed show in the country, Dressage at Devon.

while Brandi began her senior year at Polk County High School. Both girls assisted the instructors in the classroom, set up for and cleaned up after classes, and supervised the students during lunch and snack breaks. They had real world job experiences as they learned about the importance of volunteers to a non-profit, the role of a board of directors, all while witnessing the daily activities of a craft school. Worthington and Hunt were enthusiastic, hardworking and patient when working with these creative, energetic students. Tryon Arts and Crafts summer interns were paid through a grant from the Student Intern Program of the Polk County Community Foundation. In addition to the Summer Sizzler program, Tryon Arts and Crafts hosted a group of students (Continued on page 28)

Letter to the Editor

The king of Polk To the Editor: Golly King, I’ve lived here for almost 18 years and just didn’t realize we had a King. When I heard that message on my machine inviting me to attend a debate and to bring my material I thought it was strange. Then when I saw the first ad and saw I was advertised as a

Letter to the Editor

Some people could read that 5 reams of paper in 12 hours To the Editor: On page 33 of the 28 October Bulletin, a lady takes exception to Congressman Shuler’s claim to have read the 2500 pages of

page

debater, I was surprised. It did say the debate would go on if I attended or not so I thought why would I want to go? After all we had already debated this in the Bulletin on three different occasions. Since you didn’t leave a number or ask for a response I just let it go. Now here I am banished from anymore letter writing. Hope you don’t mind this one as I don’t want to end up in a dungeon.

I want to explain what I was thinking. It was that Tea Party lady’s fault who was handing out copies of that U.S. Constitution at the Board of Commissioner’s meeting. It said in there that I had free speech and I was dumb enough to believe it. I didn’t know I’d get in all this trouble if I put my letters in the Bulletin. You decreed “From this date forward, anyone sending “letters to the editor” should be held accountable for

their statements. If you can’t or refuse to defend your statements don’t print them. Paid for by Keith Holbert.” I just didn’t know I had to show up where and when you want. It was that darn Tea Party lady’s fault, putting those crazy ideas in my head. You should get your hands on all those copies of the Constitution and rip them up. We wouldn’t want anyone else thinking it’s a free country. – Jerry Hardvall

the Healthcare bill in 12 hours. Apparently she is unaware that President Kennedy claimed to be able to read at the rate of a few thousand words per minute--as opposed to the 300 wpm rate for most people. Whether Congressman Shuler actually can read that fast, I do not know, but the point is that some people could read that five reams of paper in 12 hours. Furthermore, there is anecdotal

evidence that rapid readers can comprehend and remember more than less-rapid readers. In addition, the exact makeup of the bill is unknown: if it is like most bills I have dipped into, there are many pages that are only partially full--including title pages, tables, footnotes, etc. etc. etc. Since Congressman Shuler cared enough to claim that he had read both the Healthcare

Reform Bill and the Cap-andTrade Bill, while his opponent-at that time--had read neither, it would appear that Congressman Shuler could give better service to his constituents than his opponent. Since this is being written Saturday morning, it will likely not appear in the Bulletin before the election, but it may nevertheless be informative. – Bill Holcomb

Tryon Painters and Sculptors plan ‘Draw till you Drop’ workshop The second drawing workshop by Christine Mariotti featuring the “drawing from the right side of the brain” method will be held on Friday, November 19, and Saturday November 20, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. Mariotti has 30 years experience teaching art methods including drawing, painting, textiles and fashion illustration. She completed her career in teaching in southern California in 2008 and has begun a second career in Tryon as a workshop instructor and professional

artist. Mariotti is also vice president of the Tryon Painters and Sculptors and coordinates all of the workshops and demonstrations at that facility. Mariotti says this workshop is especially helpful to beginning artists who think that they have little or no drawing ability. Learning how to see differently and to use another part of one’s creative brain allows anyone to have a successful drawing even the very first time, she says. There are many exercises first developed by Betty Edwards

in the ‘70s that challenge our logical thought processes and allow us to take chances with art media. The upside down drawing shown above is an example of one of the types of drawing students will attempt. If you think you might enjoy this challenge call Christine Mariotti at 828-859-8392 or email cmariotti@windstream. net to register. – article submitted An example of a type of drawing students will attempt in the workshop.

2x10 ‘America’s Wittiest Woman’ at 10/22,29;11/5,12,19,25;12/3,10 Lanier Library Tuesday, November biog-039530 South Carolina author Norm Powers will bring “Dorothy Parker - Jazz Age Muse” to Tryon’s Lanier Library on Tuesday, November 16, at 12 p.m. as part of the library’s Brown Bag Lunch series. Powers, whose novel “End Credits” appeared last year, is also the author of the play “Dottie & Fred,” about the relationship between Parker and fellow Algonquin Round Table stalwart Robert Benchley. The play has been given a staged reading at Manhattan’s The Director’s Company and at Duke University’s Triangle Theater Festival. Dubbed “America’s Wittiest Woman” by the New York Times between the two world wars, Parker was famous for her often stinging witticisms and satiric light verse. But her more important literary output of award-winning short stories, essays and plays is often overlooked. She was a regular contributor to “The New Yorker,” whose short story “Big Blonde” won the O’Henry Prize for best short story of 1929. She was also nominated for an Academy Award for co-authoring the screenplay for the 1937 film “A Star Is Born.” In later years, she was active in anti-fascist and socialist causes, for which she was briefly blacklisted during the McCarthy era. She outlived nearly all of her Algonquin

Round Table peers, passing away in 1967 and leaving her entire estate to the NAACP. The Lanier Library in Tryon is one of fewer than 20 subscription libraries remaining in the United States. Named for the southern poet Sidney Lanier, it has occupied the same site overlooking downtown Tryon since 1905 and offers an ongoing calendar of readings and other literary events. Norm Powers’ fiction has been published by the Hub City Writers Project, most recently in the Hub City anthology “Expecting Goodness.” He is also a regular contributor to the arts and culture monthly “Bold Life” and is a contributing reviewer for the New York Journal of Books. He is now at work on his second novel. – article submitted

Unitarian Universalists meet Nov. 14 The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship will meet on Sunday, November 14 at 10:30 a.m. at the Tryon Youth Center on Rt. 176. Reverend Jean Rowe will speak on the topic, “Where Do We Go from Here?” Rowe says, “It’s been a stormy year for our country, and a vicious election season. Now what? Can we regain civility? Can we live by the rule of agape? Must we descend into a cycle of cynicism and fear? Drawing on the wisdom of some of our great leaders, including the prophets Hosea and Jeremiah, Abraham Lincoln and

biogensis - page 13

Martin Luther King Jr., I’ll make some observations. “Unitarian Universalists often look at the big picture, the broad sweep of history, drawing on biblical wisdom, philosophy and science in looking at meaning and value. Our approach to life is based on love rather than fear, and reason rather than fixed tradition. We honor the worth and dignity of all persons and speak the truth in love.” Come early to share fellowship and refreshments. For information call 828-894-5776. – article submitted

Benefit for Killough at Elmo’s Sat. Elmo’s and the band Speedwell will host a benefit on November 14 beginning at 4 p.m. to assist Chris Killough with her ongoing cancer treatment. There will be food, music, raffles, auctions and door prizes. Limited edition “Morris” breast cancer T-shirts, featuring Elmo’s and Speedwell on the back, will be on sale while they last. There will also be a guest appearance by Rough and Ready from Spartanburg, which heard about the event and asked to participate. Killough is a native of Landrum, the mother of two boys, 12 and 9, godmother of a 14-year-old girl (whom she is raising) and the wife of high school sweetheart Joe. She is loved and respected by families, residents and coworkers at White Oak of Tryon, where she has been a nurse for 17 years. In May, Killough was diagnosed with stage 2 invasive ductal cancer which is very aggressive. Because of the type of cancer, she decided to have the BRCA2 gene test which turned out to be positive. Based on the test results, her doctors recommended a double mastectomy, which she has undergone. She will have a hysterectomy early in 2011 and a tumor removed from her leg following the hysterectomy. Currently, Killough is undergoing chemotherapy, after which the doctors will determine whether or not she has to undergo radiation therapy. While Killough has the support of her relatives, her work family and her church family, the cost of her treatment continues to increase and insurance does not cover much of her cancer medication. When Pam Johnson, owner of Elmo’s, heard Killough’s story she was determined to help out. She contacted White Oak of Tryon to see what kind of help they would provide if she got the ball rolling and she says the staff was ready, willing and able. Johnson said, “When someone

is going through what Chris is going through they should not have to worry additionally about hospital and drug bills.” In addition to donating the venue, 10 percent of Johnson’s sales that day will go directly to Killough as well as all of the small admission charge. Mary Lance, administrator of White Oak of Tryon, said, “We are so pleased Pam Johnson is hosting this benefit to help Chris. The merchants of Tryon and Landrum have given prizes, auction items and door prizes. It’s overwhelming to see what everyone is doing to help Chris and her family.” In addition to Speedwell and Rough and Ready, there will be a number of local bands dropping by to jam during the afternoon and evening. Marie Hooper said, “The call has gone out to the bands in the area and many have responded. We have done this several times at Elmo’s and it works really well. We were pleased that Pam asked us to participate. Speedwell, Rough and Ready and all the musicians are willing to do anything we can to help.” – article submitted

Letter to the Editor

The Bible is the absolute authority To the Editor: In his letter “regarding the authority of Scripture” (TDB Oct. 20, 2010, pg. 9), Patrick Winslow of the Catholic Church offered his reasoning why he believes “the Bible is the inspired Word of God.” But then he watered down its authority by saying, “One cannot believe in the Bible alone. Its authority must depend upon the authority of others (men).” He concluded his letter with the question, “If it was not the Church, who told you the Bible is the Word of God?” That is a legitimate question, and it demands a legitimate answer. The apostle John wrote the last of the Bible books, Revelation, at the end of the 1st century. Mr. Winslow said it was over 200 years later that the debates over Bible canon were settled, so I believe he was referring to the Council of Carthage at the end of the 4th century. The 4th

century indeed saw several councils which had the purpose of debating which doctrines and ideas should be considered part of the official teachings of the church. Their findings were the foundation of many of the teachings in the realm of Christendom down to our day. But picture this: the Bible tells us, “All scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness” 2 Timothy 3:16. He provided the Bible to counsel all men, all of whom are imperfect since the disobedience of Adam. Now, we’re talking about God, Almighty God (Revelation 16:14), “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Peter 1:3), the Divine One (Joshua 22:22), the One who is identified many ties by his divine name, Yahweh, in the Catholic Jerusalem Bible, the Creator of all things (Revelation 4:11), Sovereign Lord of the entire universe (Acts 4:24), etc. Are we really to believe that this same Almighty God would let puny, squabbling men debate which of God’s teachings they

think should be part of God’s Bible, men who themselves needed to be instructed by God’s written Word? Definitely not. The canon of the Bible, the same canon we have today, was, in fact, determined less than a century after the Bible books and letters were written. The Muratorian Fragment, and writings of Irenaeus, Clement, Tertullian and Origen all establish that the canon of the contents of the Bible that we use today had been determined around the end of the 2nd century, long before the Council of Carthage in the year 397. Since the canon was selected through the second century, it was made by those who were contemporaries of the Bible writers during the time sometimes referred to as “Primitive Christianity,” and not during any of the debates in later years. Since “All Scripture is inspired of God,” it is obvious that He used His holy spirit to select the books that make up the canon of the Bible- the same spirit that inspired the writing of those books in the

first place. They were selected by what the Encyclopedia Britannica calls, “the criteria of canonicity,” that is, apostolicity, conformity with true doctrine, and widespread geographical usage. Since God was establishing a new religion upon which He was bestowing His blessing (Christianity), He wouldn’t delay the completion of the Bible which was needed to teach the new religion to people all over the world. And because we can see that the Bible we have today is essentially the same as when it was written, completely harmonious with no contradictions, with the common theme of explaining God’s purpose to accomplish His will running through the entire Bible from Genesis to Revelation, I submit that is proof that, indeed, the Bible is the inspired word of God, but what we got is what He determined we needed for our instruction, not determined by the debates of any councils of men. That makes the Bile the absolute authority governing the affairs of men. – Ken Roberts

has been drawn to the September 13, 2010 Bulletin front page article about the new Polk County Appearance Commission. To quote an excerpt from this article, its members “… study the visual needs of the county, promote a public understanding of appearance issues, and promote the visual quality of the Polk County Area.” More recently, in the Thursday, October 21, 2010 issue of the Bulletin, page 8, the Commission made the news and was touted again as having oversight for the beautification of Polk County. Query: In its proposal stage, did the Tryon Dollar General store concept ever cross the tables of this erstwhile Commission? In their concern over the greening of Polk County, wouldn’t they have governance over new construction in our County; in particular, wouldn’t their established standard building code restrictions adhere to Polk greening, and preclude the kind of the Quonset hut construction inconsistent with the conjecture of Tryon residents? In the aftermath, I quote Eric Gaston of the Appearance Commission’s closing credo in the five words of the article, which I assume would apply to the Tryon Dollar General: “…..no litter, and no eyesores….”. My hope is that on November 16th, the town meeting regarding Tryon building standards will have a really good turnout of concerned folks. – Peter K. Terwilliger

To the Editor: In early August, I wrote a Letter to the Editor about our newest arrival, the Dollar General store. During the ensuing weeks I have been gratified that I received many responses to my Letter by phone and in person; all positive, complimentary, and in concurrence with what indeed is still perceived by many as a blight on our community. In the interim, there was a noteworthy development. Several weeks after the Dollar General store was opened, I received a plain, typewritten, undated and unsigned postcard in the mail postmarked “Asheville”, in which the anonymous author took a curious tack that started by recounting the unfortunate circumstances in which the original owner of the property had to sell under distress. The treatise went on to query why I didn’t personally purchase the property as an individual, and as I mentioned, omitted a closing signature. I am puzzled as to why my quirky and peculiar interloper chose me as a possible buyer? Curious. I detect temerity here, and I ponder that the issue is so delicate to the postcard author that this article will instill the fear of propelling them from anonymity to notoriety. Having said that, my curiosity

On Sunday, October 31, Derbyshire Equestrian Development was the scene of an American Competitive Trail Horse Association (ACTHA) Competitive Trail Challenge hosted by ReRide Tack Shop in Columbus. Using the more than six miles of trails that surround Lake Cain (locally known as Lake Sandy Plains), 21 ACTHA riders and mounts from as far away as Maryland and as close as Columbus competed for ACTHA points and prizes. The ACTHA is home based in Texas but since its conception four years ago, hundreds of affiliates from across the United States run six to 10 mile trail rides. Along the trail are six to 10 obstacles that the rider and horse team must navigate in proper form as they are scored by ACTHA trained judges. After everyone returns off the trails, scores are added and awards are handed out. The scores are posted on the ACTHA website. The team of horse and rider are then able to see how they rank in the yearly regional award system. Points for the horse stay with it for its lifetime, making the horse a much more valuable trail partner. The weather was perfect as the riders were judged on such obstacles as a bridge crossing, a side pass and a water crossing. The obstacles were placed at strategic locations around the lake at Derbyshire. Susan Sloan of Clover, S.C., riding her 16-yearold Quarterhorse Warmblood cross Ben, scored the highest in the open division to win the blue ribbon along with her choice of

Letter to the Editor

Never a “jook joint” To the Editor: Among the things I find exceedingly annoying are presumptuous people. For example, a recent article on the sale of the Nina Simone house (TDB October 19, 2010) ventured the following historiographical lesson about the largest African American community in Tryon: “The old Fred Lyles house was next door, where Lyles had a tennis court, a laundry, and a library. The Hannon Barbershop was just down the street as were the Bryan Stores (sic), and a little further away was the neighborhood jook joint.” Several of my friends who grew up in the neighborhood wanted to know (amid snorts of laughter and derision) just what that was, for it was not language that we ever used. Clearly, the interviewee was referring to a social gathering place

Friday, November 12, 2010

on Markham Road that those who frequented referred to by a number of names, but never a “jook joint.” The term is just linguistically inaccurate for this geographic area. Yes, black people did often go to jook joints throughout the South, but not in Tryon. The building in question, which changed names and proprietors over the years, was sometimes a grill, a poolroom, a supper club, a plain old club, or a Place even, but never, no never, a jook joint. My point is this—if you are going to presume knowledge about a place, at least have the courtesy to use the language of the place to do so. Otherwise you do a disservice to the people who made and lived its history. By the way, the timeline is wrong, too, and other mythologies about the time and place emerged in the article, but truth and accuracy seem not to matter in advertising. And, just for the record, we, the residents on the Eastside, like the residential zoning. – Warren J. Carson, Ph.D.

Mr. Rizzo.” “Call me Lennie,” I interrupted, and after a few more pleasantries, we rang off. On Saturday, midst the festivities, I was approached by this older couple, “Hi Lennie, I’m Blair Fletcher and this is my wife Marie, we couldn’t wait till Monday, I hope you don’t mind.” Smiling, I shook their hands, “You wait right here, I have someone I wish you to meet.” I grabbed a leash and went in to fetch Baja. “Okay handsome, I have some wonderful people for you to meet, you’ll have some pretty big shoes to fill so give it your best.” He answered me with his famous smile. Outside I handed Blair his leash. “This is Baja, I want you to take him for a walk and see what you think of him. I’ll answer all your questions when you return.” Blair got down on one knee to greet Baja and my eyes filled with tears watching the interaction, it was as if Baja was purposely passed over for this moment. Baja was adopted that very afternoon and on Monday he’ll be at the vet to begin his heartworm treatment, which I will handle. Two days of rest and by midweek, he’ll have a new forever home. I’ve no doubt that once again, I’ve witnessed the best medicine both for Blair and Baja, not to mention a pretty healthy dose for this old man too. Thanks for listening.

SMALL CHiLdrEn Q. How can we make sure that we provide adequately for our small children? a. Both the personal parenting needs and the financial needs of your children need to be addressed. If you do not plan for the needs of your children, a court will. Your assets and the fate of your children will be up for grabs. the funds for each child will be maintained in a separate account and each child will be treated equally even if they don't have equal needs. all parents should consider carefully how and who will raise their children in the event that they are not able to do so. We have a checklist of things parents need to consider when planning for their children. Please call if you would like a copy.

seeds, and fish, are also associated with a reduction in low grade inflammation. Also, consuming omega 3 fatty acids reduces inflammation. Omega 3s are found in fish like salmon, tuna, and halibut. They are also found in nut oils and some plants like flax. It’s important though to have a balance of omega 3 and omega 6 (another essential fatty acid) in your diet. There are medications like statins, ACE inhibitors, some diabetes drugs that are antiinflammatory. There are also nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin and ibuprofen, but don’t take any medication without first checking with your doctor. Using some of these steps will help to put the fire out from inflammation. Diet or exercise question?

State playoffs begin tonight at Polk High by Joey Millwood

the road to the state championship begins Friday night at home against Maiden for the polk County football team. the landscape for the 2a division is filled with 32 teams vying for that championship, but simple mathematics is all the Wolverines are looking at this week. Take that 3 and that 2 and add them together and you get five. All the Wolverines need are five wins. In fact, head coach Bruce ollis and the coaching staff for the Wolverines is stressing that 1-0 every week for the next five weeks will be all they need. That first victory will come against a tough Maiden team. Maiden is talented at quarterback, tailback and wide receiver, (Continued on page 55)

ollis said. “(they are) a very talented, well-balanced team,” he said. they are similar to the Wolverines in that they run the spread offense, but will line up run up the middle of opposing teams’ defenses in the I-formation. Defensively, they are big up front and quick in the secondary. the Wolverines, surprisingly, will only get one home game in the playoffs unless a higher seed loses. None of that matters, however, if the Wolverines play like

they are “capable.” that’s what ollis said it will take to win. “Defensively, we are playing really well,” he said. “offensively, we need to be more consistent. We are making some big plays, but not playing great.” one of the more important factors Friday night will be to keep the ball in the Wolverines’’ hands. “Ball control will be huge in order to keep it out of their playmakers hands,” he said. Kickoff will be at 7:30 in the Little Big House on Friday night. the ticket price will be $6; no student tickets will be accepted. only state passes will be allowed. sports – page 3

some much needed revenue. At this time the town receives over $43,000 per year from rent and use of Town space. This helps us keep taxes down about 3.5 cents per year. While this is great, I feel that some of these funds should be put to use to renovate town hall, allowing us to garner more rent. 3. Eventually the second floor of both of the other town hall buildings should have an identified use and be renovated to generate income and have some meeting space. 4. There are other ways that we could raise funds. Some of these may not be feasible; however, if we get enough generated ideas, some of them will pan out. a- We could charge a higher out of town business fee to set up at our in-town events. b- We could require an auto tag/sticker that says Tryon. c- We could bottle and sell Morris Mountain Water. d- We could rent out more of town hall. e- We could sell all items that are not still used by the town. f- We could begin a roundup to the next dollar on the monthly bill from the town. This money would go into a fund to help upgrade the downtown area and make it more attractive for businesses, ultimately bringing in new customers and new revenue.

Curves of Landrum hosts turkey drive Nov. 2x10 15, 16 and Dec. 15, 16

Sale Ends December 1, 2010

11/12 Thanksgiving is just around GRIN-039959 the corner. Traditionally, this is a time to collectively give thanks. And most celebrate this holiday by gathering for a meal with family and friends. The traditional meals vary from turkey and wild rice dressing in northern US and Canada to turkey and cornbread dressing in the south. Very different traditions, with one commonality - turkey. But not everyone will have a turkey. Curves of Landrum wants to help by hosting a Give a Gobble event November 15 and 16 and December 15 and 16. During this event, the Landrum Curves will waive the initial service fee for any new member who brings in either a turkey or a $30 contribution, all to be donated to Thermal Belt Outreach. Curves owner Sonya Culbreth says, “We chose this organization because the need in this area is Think Globally...

always great this time of year and our members have such giving hearts. Our goal is to donate 50 turkeys and I think we can do it.” The Give a Gobble event will be a time for long-term members and new members alike to have fun, get to know each other and help the community simultaneously. The festivities will include a recipe exchange of all the holiday favorites containing reduced calorie, fat and/or sugar counts. Those who donate a turkey will be entered into a drawing for prizes. Culbreth also says, “Give a Gobble is just a great way for us to get into the giving spirit and to also help those in need at the same time.” To participate in the Landrum Curves Give a Gobble, contact Sonya Culbreth at 864-457-2477 or cfit@windstream.net. – article submitted

tremendous praise to our Father in heaven for the opportunity that was awarded me from above, to run as sheriff for Polk County; thank you Father in heaven. a very tremendous thank you to all of the CoURaGEoUs sUPPoRtERs near and far, especially my wife Geraldine and my one and only son stacey, during this election as well as after, this has been a very exciting journey with surprises along the way. there were new friends found along the way as well as faithful friends from the pass, there is still work to be done. our campaign was informative, challenging by way of debates, honest concerns expressed by individuals that were, and still are in pursuit of answers as well as justice. We need to stand firm in our efforts to move forward with positive changes that i have expressed during forums and the debate, in hope the changes are implemented for the safety and protection we deserve. i send my esteemed congratulations to donald in his continued challenge as sheriff of Polk County and my continual praise for the citizens of Polk County; “sHiElds FoR sHERiFF still Has a RiNG to it”

Dear Savvy Senior What are the absolute cheapest cell phone plans available to seniors today? I’ve had a cell phone for nearly four years that I rarely use, but I like having it for emergency purposes. Infrequent Caller Dear Infrequent, For seniors who don’t use their cell phone very often but still want one for emergencies or occasional calls, there are a number of low-cost plans available depending on your specific needs. Here’s where to find some of the cheapest deals. Prepaid Plans The best way infrequent cell phone users can save money is with a prepaid cell phone – also known pay-as-you-go phones. With a prepaid phone there’s no contract, no fixed monthly bills, no credit checks and no hidden costs that come with traditional cell phone plans. With this type of service, you buy a special prepaid phone (they can cost anywhere from $10 to $100), then pre-purchase a certain amount of minutes (for talk or text) that must be used within a specified period of time. While there are many prepaid phones on the market today, the cheapest deal for occasional users belongs to T-Mobile (tmobile.com, 800-866-2453), who has a 30-minute plan for $10, and minutes don’t expire for 90 days. That averages out to $3.33 per month. If, however, you need more talk time, check out their “Gold Rewards” annual plan where $100 gets you 1,000

Savvy Senior

minutes that are good for a full year. And with all T-Mobile pay-as-you-go plans, if you replenish your account before your minutes expire, your unused minutes will roll over. TracFone (tracfone.com, 800-867-7183) also offers some nice value plans that start at $10 for 50 minutes per month. Senior-Friendly Phones If you don’t mind spending a little more, Consumer Cellular and Jitterbug are two other popular options for seniors because they offer inexpensive lowuse plans and senior-friendly phones. Consumer Cellular (consumercellular.com, 888-345-5509) sells two “Doro” simplified cell phones that cost either $25 or $30. And they offer a $10 per month “casual” calling plan, plus 25 cents per minute, and no long-term contract. They even give a 5 percent monthly service discount to AARP members. And Jitterbug (jitterbug.com, 800-918-8543), which makes the best senior-friendly cell phone on the market, sells their Jitterbug J phone for $99, with calling plans that start at $15 per month for 50 minutes, and no contract. Both services do, however, charge a one-time activation fee of $35. Free Cell Phones If you’re living on a limited income, you may even be able to get a free cell phone and free airtime each month through a

program called SafeLink Wireless, which was created by TracFone, and is currently available in 29 states including the District of Columbia. To qualify, you’ll need to show that you’re receiving certain types of government benefits, such as Medicaid, Food Stamps, SSI, or have a household income at or below 135 percent of the poverty line – that’s $14,621 for an individual and $19,670 for a family of two. To learn more or apply, call 800723-3546 or visit safelink.com. If, however, you don’t qualify or if your state doesn’t yet have a SafeLink program, another option to check into is the 911 Cell Phone Bank. This is a program that provides free, emergencyonly cell phones to seniors andSTATE victims of abuse.
