Not so delightful on the way out.  We can move with lightning speed to try to extract the offending item from clenched jaws OR we can prepare our pets in a more proactive way. A good probiotic for dogs is an easy way to ward off an onslaught of bad bacteria by boosting existing good bacteria. In fact, gastrointestinal disorders are the second most common health issues for dogs after skin conditions.\r\n\r\nAll dogs (and people, too) can benefit from probiotics.  They aid digestion and modulate the immune system by producing short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These helpers inhibit the growth and activity of harmful bacteria, such as <i>E. coli, Salmonella, and Clostridium perfringens</i>, as well as providing other benefits to the intestines. Probiotics help prevent urinary tract infections, and can even reduce allergic reactions by decreasing intestinal permeability and controlling inflammation.\r\n\r\nGiven probiotics for pets is a new industry, it can be confusing when investigating the best for your Best Friend. When choosing a commercial dog probiotic, consider the following criteria:\r\n\r\n• The list of ingredients should identify the specific bacterial species and also indicate the strain. Species with specific strains known to benefit dogs include <b>Enterococcus faecium </b>(strain SF68) and <b>Bacillus coagulans. Bifidobacterium animalis</b> (strain AHC7) has been shown to reduce the time for acute diarrhea to resolve in dogs. Certain strains of <b>Lactobacillus acidophilus</b> improve frequency and quality of stools in sensitive dogs. Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG (LGG) is my favorite go-to (no pun intended) for any digestive upset.  Probiotic products may contain one or several strains.\r\n\r\n• The label should guarantee the number of CFU in millions or billions per gram. Colony-forming units (CFU) is an estimate of viable bacterial or fungal numbers that the manufacturer guarantees will exist in their product.\r\n\r\n• The product packaging or manufacturer’s website should have a customer service number so you can contact the manufacturer with any questions.\r\n\r\n• The probiotic should have a “best before” or expiration date. Storage time and conditions (i.e., excessive heat or cold) can reduce the viability of some bacterial strains. It is best practice to store your probiotics in a refrigerator.\r\n\r\nAlternately, you can go the grocery store route. Following a round of antibiotics, savvy dog owners have long used tablespoonfuls of yogurt to readjust the bacteria in their dog’s intestines. (Antibiotics kill everything, the good <i>and</i> the bad.) Kefir, a souped up super cousin of yogurt, is easy to make if you’re so inclined or it’s available in the dairy cases of local groceries. Kefir is a cultured, enzyme-rich liquid food filled with friendly micro-organisms that help balance an “inner ecosystem”.\r\n\r\nKefir contains loads of minerals and essential amino acids.  Among them, <i>tryptophan</i>, an essential amino acid, is well-known for its relaxing effect on the nervous system. It may help a high drive or highly anxious dog chill.\r\n\r\nKefir also contains calcium and magnesium both of which are critical for a healthy nervous system. It is rich in vitamins B12, B1 and vitamin K, promoting healthy looking skin, boosting energy and promoting longevity.  For daily maintenance, kefir is excellent at rebalancing intestinal bacteria, boosting immunity and correcting the occasional trash-hound loose stool. If you have multiple dogs, renewable kefir is the most affordable solution.  And, it comes in flavors. I find blueberry is the most favored among my dog friends.\r\n<div></div>', 'Be proactive with probiotics', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'be-proactive-with-probiotics', '', '', '2014-09-18 07:27:26', '2014-09-18 11:27:26', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18726', 0, 'post', '', 0),

E. Young and Augusta Andrews Young, was an early starter. She began first grade at the age of 4, high school at the age of 11, and college at the age of 15. When she married her husband, David (Davey), at 19 she already had her education. Davey was 26 when he and Lil married, and he was serving as a pilot in the Marine Corps. After a blissful marriage of 7 months, Davey was assigned to a 4-month cruise as a photo reconnaissance pilot on the USS Valley Forge. He was the first pilot shot down and captured in the Korean War. He spent over three years as a prisoner of war, during which time Lil worked as a fashion model and flight attendant while awaiting his return.\r\n\r\nRemarkably, after many hospitalizations and surgeries, Davey was one of the few ex­POWs to return to active duty. Davey’s final tour was at Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort. He took his squadron overseas for 14 months while Lil and their sons remained in Beaufort. After returning from that tour, Davey retired as a full Colonel, and the family settled in Beaufort where Davey became active in many volunteer organizations. Lil and Davey were charter members of Sea Island Presbyterian Church where a cross was placed in his memory. Davey passed away in 1993, and Rev. Steve Keeler conducted Davey’s funeral service at the National Cemetery in Beaufort where Davey and Lil’s youngest son, Paul Curtis, is buried.

(18733, 4, '2014-09-18 07:34:33', '2014-09-18 11:34:33', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nIt seems that the word “hybrid” can be used in reference to wines, and also applies in many other contexts. (The name “hybrid” is from the Latin “hibrida,” meaning offspring of a mixed union.) In genetics, a hybrid is the offspring of genetically dissimilar parents, such as when a female horse and a male donkey make a mule. In linguistics, a hybrid is a word that is part from one language and part from another language. Like “monolingual” has a Greek prefix and a Latin root. In cars, usually, a hybrid is part electric, part fuel powered. Even in music the term is used. There, a hybrid is a song sung by one person that was written by another. In many cases, in all these areas, the hybrid is stronger, bigger, better than the parents.\r\n\r\nIn wine, the most well-known hybrid is Cabernet Sauvignon — a cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc. Most of us never even think of Cabernet as a hybrid. It is one of the great grape varieties of all wine grapes. And, obviously bigger, stronger and better than its parents. Beyond Cabernet Sauvignon, other hybrids, that we don’t see or drink very often at all, include ones like Seyval, Chambourcin, Catawba and many others. And, as it applies to us today, in wines, the name “hybrid” can also be used as a category of non-traditional blended wines. That means three traditional Bordeaux red grape varieties blended with some red Zinfandel can make a blend or “meritage” as we usually call them. But, this wine can also be called a hybrid. (Please note, “Meritage” with a capitalized “M” makes it an official member of the Meritage Association, and, by their rules, a blend of Bordeaux varieties only.)\r\n\r\nSo, yes, we are looking at new blended wine today. Actually, we have two blended wines this week, a red and a white from Callaway Vineyard &amp; Winery. Callaway is located in Temecula, California. More than 200 years ago, when winemaking in California began, it was at the Mission San Juan Capistrano — just 18 miles east of Temecula. The first modern, commercial vineyard in Temecula Valley was established in 1968. The valley is located 500 miles south of San Francisco and has a slightly higher angle to the sun. It’s warmer with more intense sunlight. Morning mists often linger until mid-morning. There is low rainfall in the valley, cooling breezes from off the Pacific Ocean which make for moderate daytime temperatures. The soils for the vineyards consist of decomposing granite with sandy loam, excellent for good grapes with clean, pure varietal flavors. Since the 1960’s, Chardonnay, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc have been grown here. Recently, Mediterranean varieties like Viognier, Syrah and Pinot Grigio have been planted. Rhône varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel also do well in Temecula. Temecula Valley was declared an AVA in 1984. It is part of the larger South Coast AVA.\r\n\r\nCallaway Vineyard &amp; Winery started growing grapes in 1969, and opened its winery in 1974. Ely Callaway, Jr. was the founder. Ely had graduated from Emory University, but found World War II changed the course of his life. He joined the U.S. Army Reserves and was posted to Philadelphia when they learned he had a background in textiles. He was charged with procuring clothing and fabric. After the war, he worked for clothing manufacturers for 27 years.\r\n\r\nIn the late 1960’s, Ely did some extensive research and went to Temecula. There, he found a plateau, below the foggy peaks of surrounding mountains, which he thought was perfect for planting grapes. He planted in 1969, and, in the early 1970’s, said goodbye to the textile industry. He defied the experts, who all thought that southern California was not suited to growing good wine grapes. In 1981, Ely sold his winery to Hiram Walker and moved onto the next phase of his life — golf. The success of “Big Bertha,” the club he designed, made Callaway Golf the number one golf company in the world. (I should mention that Ely’s mother’s cousin was Bobby Jones. Which means golf did not come to Ely out of the clear blue sky.) Ely Callaway died in 2001, at age 82.\r\n\r\nIn 2012, the Callaway Vineyard &amp; Winery went through a huge renovation. Their tasting room is large, surrounded with glass windows that look out over rolling hills and vines. They offer daily tours and tastings, including automated self-serving tasting stations. Their Meritage Restaurant is one of the very best in the area, featuring a California-Mediterranean style cuisine and featuring local produce and butchers. And, of course, Callaway wines, most of which are only available on the property.\r\n\r\nLucky us, though, we can try two of their wines — Callaway Hybrid Red and Callaway Hybrid White. The red is a blend of 50 percent Merlot, 35 percent Zinfandel and 15 percent Syrah, it says so right on the front label, in nice large letters and numbers. And, as we know, these three grapes blended together are not a traditional blend. Hence, a hybrid. This wine is medium bodied with an appealing smooth, juicy texture. Its flavors include blueberries, chocolate, blackberries, white pepper and plums. Soft tannins keep it easy drinking, sip after sip, glass after glass. Maybe it is better than its pieces and parts? Like a hybrid should be.\r\n\r\nThe white is a blend of 40 percent Verdejo, 35 percent Viognier and 25 percent Gewurztraminer. Truly, what seems to be an off-the-wall blend. But, the layered flavors and textures of this wine make it perfect for many types of foods. Its medium body is loaded with apple and pear fruit flavors, hints of peaches and kumquats, a touch of citrus, floral notes, minerality, and good acidity.  Again, a hybrid, true to its namesake.\r\n\r\nTogether, these two wines will be perfect for many meals, but especially those meals where you’re not sure if a red or a white will be best. (Think Thanksgiving!) They may be hybrids, but it’s up to us to use them and drink them and share them. Each for $10.99 at Bill’s Liquor on Lady’s Island.

Yet, I have to defend those poor tourists because, as a new person in the area, I am somewhat of a tourist still becoming familiar with my surroundings. It can be tricky navigating and driving around an area that has so many bridges, islands and changing street names.\r\n\r\nI have a map and my GPS. I depend on my talking “cheater” a lot. “Turn right here!” she demands of me — only to be followed by the words, “When possible, make a U-turn” because I missed the right turn. And when I ask a local about a place I need to go, they always respond with phrases like, “Take a left where the new Publix is being built.” Huh? I didn’t know there was an old Publix.\r\n\r\nThere are the street names to remember. People who have lived here a long time forget that Sea Island Parkway becomes Carteret Street and then Boundary Street and then Trask Parkway. They know it as Route 21 (which is technically U.S. Highway 21). Of course, there is the southern Route 21 and the Business 21. I have found myself on Parris Island because I have followed the wrong 21.\r\n\r\nOf course, there are the bridges. One must know the timing of the Richard V. Woods Memorial Bridge that connects downtown Beaufort to Lady’s Island because it is a swing bridge. You may want to stay away if you are close to the hour or half hour (unless it is pouring rain) in which case you are probably OK. If you decide to avoid downtown, you can take the J.E. McTeer Bridge which takes you to Ribaut (pronounced Re-bow, I have been told, I’m still learning) Road. But some locals don’t know the names of the bridges either. They just give you a landmark. “The one on your way to the Bi-Lo.” Which Bi-Lo, you ask?\r\n\r\nThere are also numerous islands and bridges for tourists and newcomers to navigate. I spoke to a man at church the other day who lives across the creek from me. He said, “It would take me about 10 minutes to get to your place by boat and about 40 minutes by car.” He wasn’t kidding. When I started to look at the islands and the bridges, the car route was definitely the long way to go.\r\n\r\nThen there is also the weekend rental turnover traffic. Since we live in a destination community with beautiful beaches, cute historical towns and recreational sports, the influx of tourists is incredible. I have now learned to time my trips either early or later in the day to avoid the backups along Sea Island Parkway.\r\n\r\nSo be careful of the tourists and the new locals. And I promise to learn to drive the area without my GPS shouting  “recalculating.”', 'For someone new to town, navigating can be tricky', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'for-someone-new-to-town-navigating-can-be-tricky', '', '', '2014-09-18 07:35:38', '2014-09-18 11:35:38', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18735', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Solace can be found in accidental acquaintance and comfort in casual conference. Small towns master the nonessential relationships if only by sheer logistics. It is impossible not to become familiar with those traveling the same path, the same route and often the same\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18738\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"247\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Cherimie-mug-bw.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18738\" alt=\"Cherimie Crane Weatherford\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Cherimie-mug-bw-247x300.jpg\" width=\"247\" height=\"300\" /></a> Cherimie Crane Weatherford[/caption]\r\n\r\ngrocery schedule. It can be a simple nod, a passing smile, an empathetic glance from a not-so-strange stranger that gives way to a sense of familiarity, peace and comfort. Words become unnecessary as the foundation of the accidental acquaintance is freedom from obligation. Just as a weathered landmark signals lessened distance homeward bound, nonessential relationships become signals of their own.\r\n\r\nHaving the morning awareness of a blind rabbit, it is stunning that I notice a young lady walking almost daily. Often rushing from one task to another, I barely notice date or time. This young lady always caught my eye for no discernible reason. Daily our paths intertwine providing a certain flow to my all-too-rushed schedule. Occasionally, my mind wanders from to-do list lethargy to imagining her point of focus. Eyes straight ahead and purposeful gait, rhythmic pace, obviously she meant business.\r\n\r\nBy chance and convenience, last week I headed to my little boutique to make certain the world of women’s clothing was turning as it should when the morning sky opened and saturated all God’s creatures great and small. One of those downpours where one can’t help but feel as though Mother Nature is making a point. Fortunately, I found entry prior to falling prey to an impressive soak and unimpressive hair do. Turning on lights and doing all those things rote, I heard a knock.\r\n\r\nStanding amidst Mother Nature’s hissy fit was the young lady I often see walking the busy street. Her focus familiar, her stature recognizable and her clothing soaked to the core. Unlocking my door and barely having a chance to speak, she quickly announced her intentions to purchase a new pair of shoes and pants. The clothing she had on was so drenched that it left a puddle at my door.\r\n\r\nAll things Southern kicked in and I quickly offered her towels. She explained that she was heading to school when the bottom fell out and just needed to get something dry to wear as she had classes the entire day. It hit me. All those days that I was complaining about this or that, rushing through my nonessential tasks from the comfort of my air-conditioned car, she was walking to school. The hottest of hot days, the rainy days, the days that my biggest complaint was a seemingly long traffic light. She was walking to school, not just one block, not even five. She walks down busy Boundary Street to attend University of South Carolina Beaufort. It is no short distance.\r\n\r\nOften described as hard-nosed, frequently referred to as difficult and never being accused of being a socialite, my bark can sometimes be worse than my bite. (Unless you take my coffee, then my bite is horrendous.) There is something about a determined woman that awakens all that is good. She made her way to the counter to pay for a new pair of shoes and a dry pair of jeans. No Ma’am, I said. Not today. She tried once more to pay, saying she didn’t mean to get anything for free. I saw an entire generation in her and wondered if her Mom would ever find out about this. How proud must she be of such a determined, prideful young lady.\r\n\r\nDay in and day out, I hear (and even speak) excuse after excuse about not marching forth toward a goal. Complaints that should never be are as customary as true grit is rare. This young lady walks to school everyday, never stopping to ask for a ride, never swaying her gaze. Head up, eyes forward. How small I felt in her presence.\r\n\r\nI gave her a brand new pair of boots and a wonderful pair of jeans. After a short conversation, she thanked me and headed for the door. Somehow I looked at her and saw everything I wanted to be, much that I already am, and what I want for my daughter. It matters less where she had been but more where she was going. Her determination and refusal to let even Mother Nature slow her direction is rare and inspirational. My request to her was simple. I asked her to go out and change the world, knowing full well, she already has. She walks to school, further than most walk in a week, and she does so with a smile.\r\n\r\nMaybe those nonessential relationships aren’t so nonessential after all.', 'A dry pair of boots', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'a-dry-pair-of-boots', '', '', '2014-09-18 07:38:10', '2014-09-18 11:38:10', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18737', 0, 'post', '', 0),

All these things and more are open to Amateur Radio license holders, or Hams, for short.\r\n\r\nYour local Amateur Radio Club, the Beaufort Radio Amateur Group or BRAG (www.beaufortradio.com) will be giving free classes plus the license examination over four Saturdays in October at a location across the street from Beaufort Memorial Hospital.\r\n\r\nPeople from age 7 to 97 have earned their amateur licenses. There are roughly 2 million amateurs in the world, with some 700,000 in the United States. There are three classes of license: Technician, General and Extra. The first level is the entry level and allows operating privileges on a number of frequency bands.  The second level allows operation on all bands and all modes; the last has some additional privileges.  In order to get a license, you have to know both sufficient technical information and the FCC regulations that apply to Ham radio. The necessary information for each class is contained in study guides called License Manuals which are put out by the American Radio Relay League, our major association (www.arrl.org).  Each class of license has its own license manual.  (An up-to-date manual is required for the class.)\r\n\r\nThe course in October will consist of three classes, your study in between and then the fourth Saturday will be the technician license exam. Classes are from 1 to 2 p.m. with time after each class for questions and discussion. There is a license exam fee of $15 but the license itself is free and is renewable every 10 years.\r\n\r\nSo no matter what your age, background or interest, whether technical — such as working the amateur satellites that are up — or social, talking to other Hams all over the city, state, country or world, come along and sign up for the course.

Bodacious “grub” prepared by over a dozen local restaurants and eateries provide just the perfect sustenance required to cut a rug all evening long. And at this South by Southwest-themed celebration, no one will go thirsty — there’ll be plenty of wine, beer, soda and the aforementioned Cactus Juice available at the two bars.\r\n\r\nThis unforgettable evening of unlimited food, live entertainment, dancing and unique silent auction items benefits the YMCA of Beaufort’s capital campaign. “The funds raised during Boots &amp; Bling go directly toward capital improvements at our facility,” said YMCA CEO Mike Bostwick. “We will be resurfacing our main indoor pool.  Since this pool is so large and deep, the cost is around $80,000. We hope to make a sizable dent in that dollar figure at Boots &amp; Bling!”\r\n\r\nThis year, in addition to the silent auction, there will be a pre-event raffle for a 2010 EZ-GO electric golf cart. The golf cart has a new windshield, new tires, new batteries, seats 4, and features a 19-mile per hour chip and front headlight so it is road ready.\r\n\r\nRob Averill, Boots &amp; Bling event chairman, is thrilled to have such a substantial item donated this year. “We will be holding the raffle for the golf cart starting on Sept. 3. Each raffle ticket will be $25 or you can get 5 for $100. You can purchase these raffle tickets at the YMCA in Port Royal and at Boots &amp; Bling. We’ll draw for the golf cart winner during the event, however you do not need to be present to win.”\r\n\r\nThis year’s silent auction items include a smorgasbord of goodies including rounds of golf, golf clubs, gift certificates to various businesses and restaurants, one-of-a kind pieces of art, autographed books by several local authors, fine jewelry and more.\r\n\r\n“We are once again extremely grateful to our local business community, Y members, volunteers and friends for their generous donations to the auction. We also have many “Bling” level event sponsors and in-kind sponsors who are supporting this event. Without all their assistance and financial support, an event like this just would not be possible,” Averill added.\r\n\r\nWith so many programs for every age, ability and economic circumstance, The Wardle Family YMCA shines as a pacesetter in bringing our diverse community together on so many levels.  So grab your best pair of jeans, straighten that Stetson and mosey on over to The Shed on Saturday at 6 p.m. because you don’t want to miss a minute of one of the most enjoyable events in all of Beaufort.\r\n\r\nBoots &amp; Bling tickets are $50 for individuals and $90 for couples. Tickets can be purchased at the Y front desk at 1801 Richmond Ave. in Port Royal or online at www.ymcabeaufortcounty.com.

(You’ve got to read the whole essay to really appreciate it.)\r\n\r\nMany investors buy stocks the way many consumers buy paper towels or any other staple. They are attracted to a sale and loss leaders are a proven method for a retailer to increase the traffic in their store. The value of the item is well known and a sale price gets the attention of potential buyers.\r\n\r\nMr. Allen explains brilliantly and succinctly why this analogy is bunk: “But stocks are not like paper towels. Paper towels can be used to satisfy a need and this is what gives the item its value to the consumer.  What gives a stock its value?  A stock cannot be used to satisfy a need or accomplish a task.  The value of a stock is derived from the financial performance of  the company, either actual or expected.  The fact that the stock is down in price is usually a sure sign that the financial performance of the company is declining.\r\n\r\n“...if the value of the stock was constant, then buying bargain stocks would be the correct way to invest in stocks. But stock values are constantly changing as business conditions change for the company and the expectations of investors change.”\r\n\r\nAll in all, it seems to me that relative strength often more closely reflects what the expectations of investors are — and the expectations are what counts.  Let’s face it: strong stocks are usually strong because business conditions or fundamentals are good, and weak stocks are usually weak for a reason.\r\n\r\n<i>This article was written by Dorsey, Wright and Associates, Inc., and provided by Wells Fargo Advisors and Hall Sumner, CFP®, Financial Advisor in Beaufort, SC, 211 Scott Street, (843) 524-1114.

The term “by right” simply means that since the property in question is zoned Lady’s Island Community Preservation, which allows construction of two homes per acre, the property owner “by right” of this zoning can divide his property into a maximum of 54 lots.\r\n\r\nThe Beaufort County Development Review Team approved the subdivision in June 2010 with the requirement that it include commercial water and sewer. But the new home market crashed in 2010 and no development occurred at the property until recently. The site is now being cleared in preparation for development.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<b>Buses, safety and Sams Point Road</b>\r\n\r\nSchool is back in session and approximately 4,000 students are traveling Lady’s Island roads each week day. Many of those students will travel by school buses.  Please remember that in South Carolina, if you are traveling behind a school bus with a flashing red or amber light the law requires you stop if the bus stops.  If you are traveling on a two lane road and meet a stopped school bus with its flashing red lights, you must come to full stop and remain stopped until the bus begins forward motion again.\r\n\r\nIf you are on a four-lane road, such as Sams Point Road, and you meet a stopped school bus, you do not have to stop.  Regardless of the fact that the law no longer requires stopping on four-lane roads, drivers should slow down and proceed with caution.\r\n\r\n<b>New state charter Lowcountry Montessori School opens</b>\r\n\r\nOnce again there is a Montessori school on Lady’s Island.

Yet so many people are yearning for other ways to help.\r\n\r\nWhat if we were asked to take personal responsibility for peace in our lives, in our nation and in the world?

How can doing this make a difference? Noted author and minister Robert Fulghum writes, “Peace is not something you wish for, it’s something you make. Something you do.  Something you are.  And something you give away.” The energy of peace is conscious and active; it is not passive and without movement.\r\n\r\nCreate one or more simple peace action practices that you can commit to and live every day. Because of the apparent overwhelming energy that we are addressing, it is helpful to not become overwhelmed ourselves by keeping our practice simple. Every act of peace regardless how small adds energy to what is known as the critical mass, the accumulation of experience that creates a new status quo or cultural norm.  Remember the days before cell phone usage became the norm!\r\n\r\nSome of the peace action practices that have been shared with me include finding places in the body and mind that feel a pressure to change someone and learning ways to let go of the tension, adopting “beginner’s mind” when the temptation to stereotype shows up, finding a place in nature that feels peaceful and sit there, breathing more deeply when awareness of fear of “the other” arises, writing and leaving “Love Notes” around the community, spending time with someone of a different background to get to understand where the similarities live, sending blessings to random people throughout the day, reading stories about the experiences of people who grew up differently or who are from “up there” or “over there”, listening, being grateful for all of life.\r\n\r\nEnjoy creating your own peace action practices and have fun sharing the energy.  Peace ... let it begin with me.\r\n\r\n<i>Ifetayo White has been a practitioner of the healing arts since 1989.

(18808, 4, '2014-09-18 08:32:50', '2014-09-18 12:32:50', 'Tracie Korol is probably best known to readers of The Island News for her weekly column about dogs called “BowWOW.” In it, she gives practical advice to common behavioral issues facing our Best Friends — as she likes to call our canine pets — and offers holistic approaches on everything from nutrition and exercise to barking and raising a friendly, well-adjusted dog.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18809\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"224\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Profile-Tracie-Korol-reiki.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18809\" alt=\"Tracie Korol performs Reiki on one of her patients.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Profile-Tracie-Korol-reiki-224x300.jpg\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" /></a> Tracie Korol performs Reiki on one of her patients.[/caption]\r\n\r\nAlthough pets are her passion now, Tracie’s diverse background includes graphic design, retail advertising and being a practicing herbalist.\r\n\r\nBorn in Pittsburgh, she was raised in Johnstown, Pa., and central Ohio. She lived for a long time in New England before moving to the Lowcountry more than six years ago. In that time, she has written more than 300 articles for the paper.\r\n\r\nTracie has a BFA in graphic design and an MFA in advertising theory. Her first career was as a graphic designer/art director in Ohio. She also had her own firm for 22 years that specialized in industrial and retail print advertising; she’s designed Happy Meal boxes and international retail signage.\r\n\r\nShe is also certified in canine massage and homeopathy and recently certified in animal nutrition.\r\n\r\n“The interesting juxtaposition in these two fields is that I used to BE the person writing the copy and putting the pictures on the dog food bags,” Tracie said. “I know first hand that what you’re buying is hardly ever what you think it is. What is on the bag has nothing to do with what’s in the bag.”\r\n\r\nBut she left advertising to literally “go to the dogs” designing, building and operating the first community play boarding kennel in Vermont. It was during this time that she really started to notice changes in the health of the dogs that came to the kennel. “I began to see that my dog friends were beginning to develop odd ailments — lupus, myelin sheath disorder, were getting fatter or were routinely coming with more and more medicines. It was not unusual to have 5 out of any 22 dogs be on prednisone and antibiotics at any given time. The why of it all began to bug me,” she recalls.\r\n\r\n“I began to study, ask questions, reach out. Mind you, this is pre-internet,” Tracie says. “When I discovered Marty Goldstein in upstate New York, I began to study in earnest and get any certification available.”\r\n\r\nMarty became her mentor and stressed whole foods, clean water, exercise, homeopathic remedies, herbal supplements, nutraceuticals, acupuncture, chiropractic, massage and energy healing.\r\n\r\n“Couple that with my already being a practicing herbalist, I made the acquaintance of Randy Kidd who authored ‘Dr. Kidd’s Herbal Care for Dogs,’ and honed my herbal skills to include animals,” Tracie said. “Along the way I also put myself in front of Richard Pitcairn and Albert Plechner, two of the forerunners in natural animal health, who stress that dogs are what they eat.”\r\n\r\nToday, she works with a holistic vet in Aiken providing nutritional counseling for dogs with “dis-ease” for local clients who have tried traditional allopathic treatment and still have itchy, ill, badly behaved dogs.\r\n\r\nShe also produces REAL FOOD for dogs — a nutritionally complete frozen food for general health and maintenance made from real fruits, vegetables and hormone-free, antibiotic-free proteins.\r\n\r\nAs an adjunct to that, she also offers home boarding (CouchTime) because some dogs are not suited to kennel — the tinies, the elderly, the medically compromised and the dogs that have no life experience. She believes her yard and many acres provide the best place for a dog to reclaim his inner canine.\r\n\r\n“I also as serve as personal chef for a number of dogs that have very specific dietary requirements due to very specific medical impairments,” Tracie adds. “And just because, I will coach dog owners with ‘difficult’ pets in how to achieve a good working relationship with their Best Friends.”\r\n\r\nTracie said one of the most interesting aspects about her profession is seeing the difference between a sick dog and a healthy dog, and how rewarding that change can be for everyone. “It is selfishly gratifying to help a dog go from being an uncomfortable, unhappy, unwell, smelly creature to the dog we all want to have — the dog with a sparkle in his eye, a shiny coat, a carefree sense of being, and what I particularly like, an ornery edge — in a relatively short period of time,” she said. “It is gratifying to see the change in owners, too, when they are no longer stressing about endless, exorbitant vet bills and their chronically sick animal. It makes a big difference, spiritually, in people when they feel that they are contributing to the betterment of their pet’s life instead of blindly turning it over to strangers.”\r\n\r\nWhen it comes to family, Tracie’s mother, Doris, was a clinical dietician who instilled in her at an early age that you are what you eat. “She’s 91 and feisty, so it’s true,” Tracie adds.\r\n\r\nHer son Jaren Shafaieh, 30, is a chef at Swank &amp; Swine in Portland, OR, and Tracie said she looks forward to moving out there sometime in the future.\r\n\r\nBut for now she says most of her community efforts are for and in Sheldon, SC. “It’s a pretty hip little place with pretty hip people, all in all,” she said.\r\n\r\nThe philosophy behind her work is simple: “Our dogs hold a very special place in our physical and spiritual lives. They have not hurt us, have not let us down, have not criticized us. At the same time, they are woven into almost every moment of our lives. They are our best teachers of mindfulness: paying attention to their surroundings with a focus we’ll never know, living in a world of scent, movement, and adventure. They feel joy and happiness yet also frustration, fear, anger, disappointment, hunger, pain, discomfort. But they do not carry those stories. (This is the crux.) It is because of this gift to us that we must make their lives more complete. If I can help people understand how easy it is to be mindful and caring toward their dog — through allowing a dog to be a dog, through a diet that will give them the vitality to be the best dog, learning a new way to communicate effectively — in return, I am happy.”\r\n\r\nTracie’s goal is to teach more people how easy and how much cheaper it is to feed their Best Friends better food. She will do one-on-ones, group workshops, shopping/teaching expeditions or will just make it for folks who are convinced of the benefit but have no knife skills.  Delivery is free.\r\n\r\nContact Tracie Korol at 843-846-0804, email is letstalk@wholedog.biz, www.wholedog.biz.\r\n<div></div>', 'Animal Advice: Canine columnist Tracie Korol cares about the Whole Dog', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'animal-advice-canine-columnist-tracie-korol-cares-about-the-whole-dog', '', '', '2014-09-18 08:32:50', '2014-09-18 12:32:50', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18808', 0, 'post', '', 0),

In her role, Nikki is responsible for advertising sales, distribution and marketing, and, as she says, “Anything else needed to make sure The Island News continues to be Beaufort’s favorite newspaper!”\r\n\r\nWith dedication and a can-do attitude like that, The Island News’ advertising clients can expect top customer service and attention to detail from Nikki.\r\n\r\nBefore starting her new job, Nikki was the sales associate for The Island News’ sister organization, Beaufort Daily Deals, and she also worked for the Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18832\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Nikki-1.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18832\" alt=\"Bubba and Nikki Hardison at Hunting Island State Park.

She was a receptionist for Georgia Coast Realty on  St. Simons Island and she was disputing a bill with the owner of The Real Estate Book, a publication where Realtors list properties. The Real Estate Book’s owner must have noticed something he liked in Nikki’s manner as she handled the dispute, because at the end of the conversation he asked her if she was happy with her job. Although she enjoyed her current job, she agreed to meet with The Real Estate Book and soon she was managing the publication for the Brunswick/St. Simons area.\r\n\r\nOutside sales was obviously Nikki’s niche because she’s spent nearly two decades in the field. She has experience in print, radio and television outside sales.\r\n\r\nIf it’s unusual for a dispute to lead to a 20-year career, it’s probably even more unusual that Santa Claus led Nikki to The Island News.\r\n\r\nAccording to Nikki, “Santa Claus was coming through our neighborhood three years ago and my husband and I couldn’t figure out what was going on. Where we come from, Santa doesn’t drive through your neighborhood on a fire truck. I was taking pictures and my next door neighbor asked me to send them to him so he could put them in the paper. That’s when he introduced himself as Buck Boone from The Island News.”\r\n\r\nNot one to pass by an opportunity, Nikki soon emailed Buck, the former general manager of the paper, to ask him about job possibilities and became a sales associate of Beaufort Daily Deals.\r\n\r\nNikki believes in working smart, playing hard and making the most of every day. “I get to meet so many incredible people because of what I do for a living,” she says. “If you love what you do, it’s not really work.”\r\n\r\n“It’s so rewarding how much people love our newspaper,” Nikki says with a smile. “They cannot wait to get it every week and read it cover to cover. People in Beaufort are proud to have a local newspaper that is concerned with what goes on in our community.”\r\n\r\nNikki is eager to help launch new specialty pages in The Island News that will allow even the smallest businesses to advertise and reach a larger audience. In addition, she sees expanding The Island News’ readership and helping grow the paper is part of her responsibility to serve her customers.\r\n\r\nThe Brunswick, Ga., native is married to Bubba Hardison and they have three adult children and one grandson. Dalton 23, lives in Beaufort and works for Carolina Air; Halley, 22, is mom to 2-year-old Brayden, lives in Brunswick and is in nursing school; and Michael, 21, is a Marine stationed at Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, N.C.\r\n\r\nNikki attended the College of Coastal Georgia but she says emphatically that she’s a huge Georgia Bulldogs fan. She has been a Chamber of Commerce volunteer in Brunswick and Beaufort for approximately 15 years. She’s also involved in the Beaufort Chapter of Business Networking International (BNI) and is a member of the current class of Leadership Beaufort.\r\n\r\nIn her free time she enjoys traveling and deer hunting with her husband (bow hunting is her preference) and she looks forward to hunting season every year.\r\n\r\nContact Nikki at 843-321-8281 or nikki.theislandnews@gmail.com.', 'Sales & Service: As General Manager of The Island News, Nikki Hardison believes in the client and supporting the business community', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'sales-service-as-general-manager-of-the-island-news-nikki-hardison-believes-in-the-client-and-supporting-the-business-community', '', '', '2014-09-18 09:19:59', '2014-09-18 13:19:59', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18819', 0, 'post', '', 0),

On Friday, Sept. 19, ARTworks will introduce two.\r\n\r\nYoung local performer Trey Nelson, aka “Finesse,” hails from St. Helena Island. He describes himself as a “writer, poet, and actor who tries to put all aspects of these skills into his music.” He chose the stage name “Finesse” because he feels that it describes a combination of style and skill that he puts into all of his performances. Although he only started making music in the summer of 2012, with the release of an amateur mix tape, Trey has expanded his “brand” to websites ReverbNation, audiomack and YouTube, and a few of his tracks can be downloaded from iTunes, Google Play, or streamed on Spotify.\r\n\r\nClearly, this is a young man going places, but what is he all about? Like many young people, Trey is a hardcore idealist in the best way possible. In a blog post titled “The State of Hip Hop ... Through My Eyes,” he laments the downfall of hip hop which, in his words “became a marketable scheme that we allowed the ‘Man’ or in this case ‘Men’ to get their greedy little hands on. And from then on out it was a slow and painful decline of lyricist with simple trends just coming and going away as if rappers were seasons.”\r\n\r\nWhen asked to describe what makes his own music special, Trey says “a huge part of my music/philosophy is knowledge and empowerment. You hear the same things over and over on the radio, and I just can’t listen to that, so I make my own music. My music is positive to listen to, it makes sense.”\r\n\r\nPerforming onstage with Trey will be Christopher Bacon, a senior at Beaufort High. Although young, he is already a hip-hop artist and producer. His music is faster paced than Trey’s old school hip-hop influenced sound. Every note in Chris’ music is self-made, and his words seem to strike the air with force and a relentless beat.\r\n\r\nAlthough rap and hip hop have sometime been given a bad name as attracting and instigating violent crowds, these performers actively go against the stereotype. Instead, they focus on empowering young people to think about the world around them and be a positive force for change. Mahatma Gandhi said, “Be the change that you wish to see in the world” and these teens are doing just that, leading by example and dedication to their craft while inspiring others through music.\r\n\r\nThe show takes place Friday, September 19 at 7 p.m., at ARTworks located in Beaufort Town Center on Boundary Street. Tickets are $10 for ages 16 and up and $5 for ages 15 and under. Advance ticket sales at the $10 level are available at www.beaufortcountyarts.com or by calling 379-2787.\r\n<div></div>', 'ARTworks to feature young, local rappers', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'artworks-to-feature-young-local-rappers', '', '', '2014-09-18 09:34:31', '2014-09-18 13:34:31', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18821', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Tim Scott on the November ballot. “We wanted to give folks the opportunity to meet the candidates and get to know where they stand on the issues that matter to the people of Beaufort County,” said St. Helena resident John Glover, one of the organizers of the event. “I feel the event was successful in inspiring people to get involved, but most importantly, encouraging them to vote on November 4.”\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18837\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_1179.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18837\" alt=\"Candidate Joyce Dickerson gets into the spirit of the day by helping to serve fried fish to guests.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_1179-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a> Candidate Joyce Dickerson gets into the spirit of the day by helping to serve fried fish to guests.[/caption]\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18838\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_1115.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18838\" alt=\"Democratic gubernatorial nominee Vincent Sheheen poses with Lady Pamela.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_1115-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a> Democratic gubernatorial nominee Vincent Sheheen poses with Lady Pamela.[/caption]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18839\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/IMG_0909.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18839\" alt=\"Rep.

The walnut-shaped gland — known to wreak havoc on the lives of men 40 and older — hadn’t caused him any trouble.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18880\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"200\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Health-Hugh-Davis-prostate-patient.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18880\" alt=\"Prostate patient Hugh Davis.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Health-Hugh-Davis-prostate-patient-200x300.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" /></a> Prostate patient Hugh Davis.[/caption]\r\n\r\nBut when two of his siblings began developing prostate issues, he decided not to take any chances. Every six months without fail, Davis went to his urologist for a PSA screening, a simple blood test used to look for signs of prostate cancer in men.\r\n\r\n“My brothers’ prostate issues made me more diligent about getting checked,” Davis says. “I started to get tested regularly just to be sure.”\r\n\r\nDavis was in his mid-40s when he began having the twice-a-year screenings. It was all good until the spring of 2013, when his PSA level came back higher than normal. A biopsy confirmed he had cancer.\r\n\r\n“I knew there was a slight chance I could develop cancer because of my family history,” the 69-year-old retired Beaufort attorney says. “But I had no symptoms. It was a shock to hear the words.”\r\n\r\nIn its early stage, prostate cancer is usually asymptomatic. According to the American Cancer Society, it’s most often discovered during routine screenings. Davis had several more tests, including an MRI and bone scan, to determine if cancer cells had spread to other parts of his body. The results showed the cancer was confined to the prostate.\r\n\r\nHis urologist, John Adams, MD, of Coastal Carolina Urology, offered Davis several treatment options — surgery, radiation or cryotherapy, which involves freezing and killing the cancer cells.\r\n\r\nProstate surgery is frequently used to treat localized prostate cancer, particularly for men with a life expectancy of more than 10 years. Surgically removing the entire prostate eradicates the cancer and reduces the chances it will come back.\r\n\r\nAlthough preventing recurrence was a priority for Davis, he was reluctant to have open surgery — the traditional approach to prostatectomy. In this operation, the surgeon removes the prostate and some of the tissue around it through a single long incision in the pubic area.\r\n\r\nAdams recommended Davis meet with fellow Beaufort Memorial urologist Michael Staley, MD, the only physician in Beaufort County performing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostate cancer surgery.\r\n\r\n“Robotic surgery appealed to me because it offered the best chance of getting rid of the cancer totally with minimal side effects,” Davis says. “If it hadn’t been available, I probably would have gone with radiation therapy or the freezing treatment.”\r\n\r\nBecause Davis was in good health and in his 60s, he was a candidate for the procedure.\r\n\r\nUsing the advanced da Vinci Si Surgical System, the prostate can be removed through several small incisions in the abdomen, resulting in less blood loss and post-operative pain. Patients are discharged from the hospital the day after surgery and need a catheter for one week. In comparison, open surgery requires a two- to three-day hospital stay and two to three weeks with a catheter. Men can return to their regular activities in 10 days, compared to four to six weeks with the open approach.\r\n\r\nDavis chose to have the surgery last fall. Since then, his PSA levels have been undetectable, indicating the prostate cancer is gone.\r\n\r\n“I feel I made the right decision,” he says. “Now that it’s behind me, I don’t have to worry anymore.”\r\n\r\n<b>SEPTEMBER IS PROSTATE CANCER AWARENESS MONTH</b>\r\n\r\n<b>Prostate cancer continues to be the second most common cause of cancer deaths in men in the United States. One man in six will get prostate cancer during his lifetime. Most urologists still recommend PSA testing for patients 55 to 69, especially African American men who are nearly 1.6 times more likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer than Caucasian men and 2.4 times more likely to die from the disease.

(18885, 4, '2014-09-25 08:56:24', '2014-09-25 12:56:24', '<b>By Tracie Korol</b>\r\n\r\nMajor media has encouraged us to add fish oil to our diets and, more recently, to the diets of our Best Friends. These Omega-3 long chain (LCTs) fatty acids help dogs with osteoarthritis, improving mobility and reducing inflammation, and can reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. Every store has a section devoted to fish oil. My question: where is it all coming from? To be effective, fish oil should come from North Atlantic cold-water fish. What with sustainability and over-fishing in the media forefront, it might be time to change up the oil situation.\r\n\r\nThe newest, and perhaps, more reliable nutritionally loaded oil is something you’re probably been avoiding for years — either that, or you think it’s a hair care product. Yep, we’re talking about coconut oil. Coconut oil consists of more than 90% saturated fats, with traces of few unsaturated fatty acids. Most of the saturated fats in coconut oil are Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs), the main component being lauric acid, followed by capric acid, caprylic acid, myristic acid and palmitic. The benefit of lauric acid is that it has antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-fungal properties. Capric and caprylic acid have similar properties and are best known for their anti-fungal effects. So, if you have an itchy, smelly dog and nothing from the vet is working for more than 10 days, this might be a good addition to the snack bar.\r\n\r\nAlso, these MCTs are metabolized quickly providing an immediate source of fuel and energy.  Coconut oil can enhance athletic performance and aid weight loss. It can also help balance the thyroid, helping overweight dogs lose weight and helping sedentary dogs feel energetic.\r\n\r\nAs an important ingredient in America’s processed foods for most of the 20th century, coconut oil is one of the world’s few saturated-fat vegetable oils. That designation alone gave it a terrible reputation and by the 1990’s it had all but disappeared from our food supply. Unfortunately, the vegetable oils that replaced it (corn, rapeseed) caused more harm than coconut oil ever did and consequently, coconut oil is enjoying a revival.\r\n\r\nThe one you want to get to know is the unrefined “virgin” oil that is made from fresh coconuts. (The other, usually labeled RDB-Refined, Bleached, Deodorized-is made from copra or dried coconut meat and then treated with chlorine and hexane to remove impurities. It is inexpensive, bland and odorless, usually labeled as a skin or hair care product.) You’ll most likely find the virgin, organic oil in a glass jar at a health food store or in the better oils section of the grocery.   Depending on the temperature, coconut oil will be solid or liquid. Below 75 degrees it is solid and white; above that, it is a transparent liquid. And, it doesn’t have to be refrigerated.  If you do, be prepared to chip it out of the jar.\r\n\r\nWhile there have been no clinical trials on the effects of coconut oil in a dog’s diet, anecdotal evidence is impressive. Many reports involve beneficial results with itchy skin, cuts, wounds and ear problems. Dogs with flea allergies, contact dermatitis and/or dull coats typically stop scratching after coconut oil is added to their food.  An added benefit, I noticed, was with a smelly dog friend of mine, Ramone.  You know the kind of dog I mean — the one that smells like damp carpet all the time. Bathing Ramone was a waste of time and you had to change your clothes and wash your hands immediately after playing with him.  Ramone’s owner began to routinely dribble coconut oil onto Ramone’s chow. In less than a month Ramone and his owner enjoyed a stink-free life and Ramone could receive the daily body rubs he deserved.\r\n\r\nThe best way to give coconut oil is in small amounts throughout the day — a dab here and there, depending on the dog’s weight. I will “butter” a dog cookie with a scrape through a designated dog jar of coconut oil for a special treat in addition to stirring a spoonful into a meal.  Most dogs are happy to eat a gob from a teaspoon.\r\n\r\nOf course, as with anything new, you’ll want to start small. Introduce a little coconut oil gradually a little at a time in divided doses — 1/4 tsp for a tiny dog up to a teaspoonful for a big dog.  Because coconut oil kills harmful bacteria, viruses, parasites, yeasts and fungi, the burden of removing dead organisms may trigger symptoms of detoxification. Headaches, fatigue, diarrhea and flu-like symptoms are common in humans who consume too much too fast and the same can happen with dogs.\r\n<div></div>', 'With coconut oil, no more fishy burps!', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'with-coconut-oil-no-more-fishy-burps', '', '', '2014-09-25 08:56:24', '2014-09-25 12:56:24', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18885', 0, 'post', '', 0),
(18887, 4, '2014-09-25 08:57:42', '2014-09-25 12:57:42', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nOur quest to learn about great wines from around the world takes us to the Alsace region of France, a unique area with an interesting history that even has its own language, food and wines.\r\n\r\nAlsace is located on the eastern border of France, along the western banks of the Rhine River. Looking at a map of France, you find it squeezed into its corner, sort of jutting more into Germany than looking like it’s really in France. The history of this region is closely tied to its location. By 1500 BC, Celtic people had started to settle in Alsace. The Romans, by 58 BC, had invaded and established forts and viticulture here. In fact, the forts were as much to protect the highly valued wine industry as for any thing else.\r\n\r\nWhen the Roman Empire collapsed, Alsace was taken over by the Germanic Allemanni. These were agricultural people and their language became the base for northern German. The Franks defeated the Allemanni in the 5th century AD, and Alsace became part of the Kingdom of Austria. The Frankish realm was dissolved in 843. Then, the grandsons of Charlemagne divided the realm into three parts; Alsace was part of Middle Francia, and was ruled by the youngest grandson, Lothar. When Lothar died, his third of the original realm was divided into three again. The part known as Lotharingia, or Lorraine, was given to his son. The Kingdom of Lotharingia did not last long.\r\n\r\nDuring the 12th and 13th centuries, Alsace experienced great prosperity. It was set up as a sort of province, looked over by a civil servant for Frederick I. Harsh winters, bad harvests and the Black Death brought the good days to an end at the close of the 14th century.\r\n\r\nThe residents of Strasbourg were prosperous again, by the time of the Protestant Reformation, and accepted Protestantism in 1523. The Roman Catholic Habsburgs, though, also had influence in Alsace. Consequently, Alsace became a mixture of Protestant and Catholic territories.\r\n\r\nThrough the 16th and 17th centuries, the tugs of war for pieces of Alsace continued. As France and Germany became unified countries, elements from each laid claim to Alsace. Treaties were written with Alsace being sometimes French and sometimes German. It’s only since the end of World War II, in 1945, that Alsace has become permanently a part of France.\r\n\r\nWhen it comes to Alsatian wine, close to 90 percent are white. Many of the grape varieties used are more often thought of as German. Wines are labeled for their grape variety, the only one of 27 French AC wine regions, though it is the norm in Germany. There are only three AC appellations for Alsatian wines — Alsace AC for still white, red and rosé wines; Alsace Grand Cru for white wines grown in classified vineyards; and, Crémant d’Alsace for sparkling wines.\r\n\r\nWhite wines are very dry or sweet. All Alsatian wines must be bottled in tall, thin, green bottles; the usual “Rhine” bottle. Interestingly, in Germany, there is no legal requirement to use this bottle.\r\n\r\nRiesling is the main, and greatest, white variety grown in Alsace, it accounts for about 22 percent of all the grapes grown. Gewurztraminer comes in second at about 19 percent of the total. These are both German varieties of grapes. Pinot Gris, a French grape, is third at 15 percent. Others, in order of more grown to less grown, are Auxerrois blanc, Pinot Noir, Sylvaner, Pinot Blanc, Muscat varieties, Chasselas, and small bits of a few more. Whatever grape is named on a label, the wine must be 100 percent that variety. About 25 percent of all Alsatian wines are exported to their largest markets in Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, and the United States.\r\n\r\nOur grape this week is Pinot Blanc, a genetic mutation of Pinot Noir. In 2000, there were about 3,200 acres of Pinot Blanc planted in France. Almost all of them in Alsace. It’s confusing, and despite the AC wine labeling laws for Alsace, some “Pinot Blanc” labeled wines are not all Pinot Blanc. Sometimes, it is just a catch-phrase for “A blend of whatever Pinot grapes.” Sometimes, a splash of Chardonnay may be added. Not legal, but not really watched for either. Fuller-bodied Pinot Blanc wines often are pumped up with Auxerrois.\r\n\r\nThe thing is, a good Pinot Blanc wine is delicious! The flavors and aromas of Pinot Blanc include apple, citrus fruits and floral notes. Beside Alsace, Pinot Blanc is grown in Germany, Austria, northern Italy, the U.S., South Africa, Canada, Argentina and Australia.\r\n\r\nOur wine this week is from the Pierre Sparr winery, which was founded in 1680 by Jean Sparr. Over the next 300 years, nine generations of the family worked in their vineyards and winery. Pierre Sparr took over the winery in the early 1900’s, at the age of 20. His motto was “invest, progress and maintain,” a motto that is still used today. The Sparr vineyards were mostly destroyed in World War II, but Pierre and his sons replanted them and expanded their trade with Europe and abroad. Just like before the war, the Sparr property once again became one of the most beautiful in Alsace.\r\n\r\nOur 2011 Pierre Sparr Pinot Blanc is 100 percent Pinot Blanc — no wiggling around laws with the Sparrs. The soil where these grapes grow is granite, limestone, gneiss and chalky clay. There is no irrigation for the trellised vines and the grapes are hand harvested. The vines are 5 to 15 years old. The harvest for the 2011 grapes was September 10 to 25. Almost always in Alsace, harvest is 100 days after the flowering of the vines in the spring. Fermentation for this wine was temperature controlled, with no skin contact and no malolactic fermentation. This wine is a soft yellow color with hints of green. It has aromas of pears, sweet hay, lemon peel, delicate fruits, coriander and minerals; pear and quince flavors pop in the dynamic acidity of the wine.\r\n\r\nWhat kind of food pairs well with the Pierre Sparr Pinot Blanc? Well, even though we have some German grapes, German-style labels, German bottles, Alsatian foods are a bit more French in style. And, lucky us, their wines go with all kinds of cuisines including creamy sauces, on fish especially; choucroute (cabbage, sausage, potatoes all stewed together); Asian flavors of all types — sushi, wasabi, soy sauce, fish sauce, dim sum, curries, onion tarts (like Quiche Lorraine); ham and cheese; sausages; pork; seafood and shellfish; lobster; goat cheeses; smoked cheeses; smoked meats; game birds; and foods with citrus flavors.  Almost everything except tomato sauce.\r\n\r\nReally, wines from Alsace seem to be really well suited to most foods. With all the ups and downs in their history, it makes sense. So, let’s make a point of drinking these wines more often. This week’s wine can be found at Bill’s Liquor on Lady’s Island for $14.99. Enjoy.\r\n<div></div>', 'A new \'sparr\'-ing partner', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'a-new-sparr-ing-partner', '', '', '2014-09-25 08:57:42', '2014-09-25 12:57:42', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18887', 0, 'post', '', 0),

I explained that I was enjoying some of my old friends; there was Sonny and Cher, “I Got You Babe”; and Simon and Garfunkel, “A Bridge Over Troubled Water”; and my old Motown buddies, The Supremes, with “Love child”; and Marvin Gaye, “Heard It Through the Grapevine.” Of course, when I drive through Beaufort, I enjoy listening to any of the songs from the movie “The Big Chill.”\r\n\r\nThere is so much joy in listening to radio stations like 104.9 and hearing many of the old songs from the 60s and 70s. It amazes me the amount of songs that I recognize from over the years — and especially when I actually know the lyrics. Oh, there are always those songs where you hum many of the lines, but you can always jump in on the chorus.\r\n\r\nRecently I read that there are several reasons why we remember the lyrics to old songs. The obvious reason is because we listened to one song over and over again; there is nothing like repetition to get us to learn words. How many of us had 45 rpm records where the record player just kept playing the same song over and over again?\r\n\r\nThen there is the emotional attachment to songs, an experience when a particular song is playing. It is one of the reasons why so many couples say, “They are playing our song.”\r\n\r\nOne year when my daughter was 13 years old, I dragged her to a Harry Belafonte concert. She told me how bored she was going to be but when Harry Belafonte started to sing, she realized that she knew all the songs.  There was “Michael Row the Boat Ashore” and the “Banana Boat Song (Day-Oh)”. The audience sang along to all of his songs and my 13 year old was right with them. She had forgotten about all those 8 track tapes I played in my old Pinto station wagon.\r\n\r\nSo if you do happen to see me driving in my car and it looks like I am having a good time, remember: “Girls Just Want To Have Fun”!', 'Singing in the car', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'singing-in-the-car', '', '', '2014-09-25 08:59:22', '2014-09-25 12:59:22', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18889', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Ready the furnace and clean out the fireplace. Test them both to ensure they’ll be working when you need the heat. With upkeep in the fall, you’ll have peace of mind in the winter.\r\n\r\n<b>Inside The House</b>\r\n\r\n<b>Heating System Checkup</b>\r\n\r\nBe sure to change the air filter in your furnace and check its efficiency before the cold weather begins. Call in an HVAC contractor to test the heating output and give the system a tune-up. This technician can also check for and correct possibly hazardous carbon monoxide levels generated by your heating system. Stock up on several air filters for the winter, and change them every month. If you don’t have a programmable thermostat, purchase one for the system to help lower your energy costs.\r\n\r\nAfter your furnace has been tuned up to its maximum efficiency, take a moment to inspect your heating ducts and vents. Dust them off and clear away anything that may have gotten into them over the summer. Then check your windows for any leaks that may compromise your heating efficiency. If you feel cold air coming in, purchase a plastic sealing kit from the hardware store and place the plastic around the window to keep the heat from escaping. Be sure to check your doors as well, and fix their weather-stripping if needed.\r\n\r\n<b>Check the Fireplace and Chimney</b>\r\n\r\nMost chimney sweeps recommend an annual sweeping, but depending on how often you use the fireplace, you might be able to wait on a full sweep. But if you will be using the fireplace often, call a chimney sweep for an inspection.\r\n\r\nHopefully you will have your older, seasoned firewood now ready for use after sitting for the spring and summer. It’s recommended to keep the firewood at least 30 feet from the house and covered. Seasoned wood is best for fires, as it burns cleaner and longer.\r\n\r\n<b>Review Home Fire Safety</b>\r\n\r\nThe introduction of the heating season brings new potential for fire hazards, so take a moment to review fire safety in your home. Check and replace fire extinguishers if necessary, and change the batteries in your smoke detectors. Also go over the home fire evacuation plan with your family.\r\n\r\n<b>Outside The House</b>\r\n\r\n<b>The Gutters</b>\r\n\r\nIt’s best to inspect and clean the gutters a few times during the fall, especially if there are many leafy trees around your house. If gutters remain clogged, water will spill over them and onto the ground next to the foundation, which may cause damage to the foundation. Gutters and downspouts should be kept clean and should direct water away from the foundation, as well as from walkways and driveways, so that they do not become slippery or icy.\r\n\r\n<b>Yard Maintenance</b>\r\n\r\nThe orange, yellow, and brown colors of the autumn leaves don’t look as nice on the ground as they do on the trees. Rake the leaves into piles and scoop them into yard waste bags. Most areas have ordinances about burning leaves, so check with your local area government first. When sweeping the leaves off your patio, don’t forget to clean, pack up, and store any patio furniture for the winter. Disconnect garden hoses and, if practical, use an indoor valve to shut off and drain water from pipes leading to outside faucets. This reduces the chance of freezing in the section of pipe just inside the house.\r\n\r\n<b>In The Garage</b>\r\n\r\nIt is recommended that you empty out unused fuel from any gas-powered equipment stored in the garage, such as a lawnmower, because sediment can build up and clog the fuel lines. Store gasoline in tanks out of children’s reach.\r\n\r\n<b>Test Your Emergency Generator</b>\r\n\r\nIt’s a good idea to have an emergency generator if you live in an area that sees a lot of ice storms. So if you have one, haul it out and give it a test run to see if it is in good working order. Make sure you never run the generator in any enclosed space as it will present a carbon monoxide hazard.\r\n<div></div>', 'Autumn maintenance in and around your home', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'autumn-maintenance-in-and-around-your-home', '', '', '2014-09-25 09:08:18', '2014-09-25 13:08:18', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18900', 0, 'post', '', 0),

I had bought the evening meal and was returning to my car in the jammed parking lot. I was getting in the car when I looked down at the asphalt. There, just freshly stepped on or run over by a cart or maybe a car, was one of those giant grasshoppers.  It struck me hard. The architect of life had seen fit to snuff out this voiceless and small observer of life with giant eyes, just moments before I walked up. I stood there staring.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18939\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"150\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Deb-Duer.jpg\"><img class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-18939\" alt=\"Deb Duer\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Deb-Duer-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" /></a> Deb Duer[/caption]\r\n\r\nI wondered what allowed me to finish my shopping when even one little insect had unceremoniously croaked just under my driver’s side door. I could not bear the finality to a life that allowed others to go on living in that same moment. I was still standing there trying to think through this problem when it occurred to me how fundamentally unaware I was of my own life, how relatively unappreciative, how careless was my way of living.  I might care more for how my home was constructed than how my life is. I would question the architect about the building material or the soundness of the construction, but to question the architect about what’s going on in my life?\r\n\r\nI did not write a check to pay for my experience of living, no one offered a pound of gold pieces to the author of me to ensure that things would turn out OK. No, my life was given to me free of all charges to do with and become what ever I could imagine or how little I could get a way with.  Where was my plan for myself, the plan that told me how many minutes to spend on the most important to the most humdrum aspects of living? Minutes, hours, days, months and years had escaped me with not so much as a thought to where they would lead. I had played my hand without thinking of the game and there were no tricks left to take.\r\n\r\nI was sitting in the car now, looking down at the small lifeless creature who gave impetus to my continued thoughts. How could it be that it was just gone? It was clear to me that this was not an answer I could know. But what it led me to think was that one day I will just be gone too and planet Earth and all her creatures will go on without me. Thankfully, there is still time for me to live in a manner that bespeaks a love and gratitude for this great adventure to which I have inadvertently become tangent. There is still time to live in a wonderfully deliberate way.\r\n\r\nI put the car in drive, thinking that I did not want it to be weeks before I thought of this moment again. I wanted it to be a turning point in my life. I wanted the energy from that little green alien to fill my heart and be the prescription I needed to find a way to care deeply about what I did and what kind of impact I was having.  It occurred to me as I finally closed the door to leave, that maybe that grasshopper spent its whole life trying to get to that spot in the parking lot so that I would finally learn that my life could begin its unique celebration!\r\n\r\nThese moments of clarity and insight are available much more often than you might imagine. They wake us up and we start to live with intention.  We can receive the gift of living life more sweetly from a brief moment of awareness anywhere, anytime we are willing to be present.\r\n\r\n<i>Deb Duer is a freelance writer whose work is inspired by the never-ending supply of surprises that life can deliver!

This was how the Lunch Bunch spent last Friday afternoon at the new Lazy Susan’s Cafe &amp; Creperie located in Habersham.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18928\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/DSC_0049.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18928\" alt=\"A luscious latte\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/DSC_0049-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" /></a> A luscious latte[/caption]\r\n\r\nThe restaurant, which opened in July, features a large variety of coffee — from the house blend coffee bar to the french press options to the expertly made espresso drinks. I ordered a non-fat latte and it was served in a cute little red mug and saucer and matching spoon, with a perfect swirl on top (as a former barista myself, I appreciate the craft). Drinking it just made me sit back in my chair and relax; Elizabeth ordered one too and we agreed the lattes were excellent.\r\n\r\nThe menu is divided up into “Savory Crepes” and “Sweet Crepes,” and they even have Kids Crepes available.\r\n\r\nKim ordered the French Englishman filled with tomato, bacon, egg and cream cheese and it looked amazing. Nikki tried the James Bond — a crepe with bacon, mushroom, onion, spinach and Feta cheese and she said it was so good.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_18929\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/DSC_00511.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-18929\" alt=\"The French Englishman crepe\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/DSC_00511-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" /></a> The French Englishman crepe[/caption]\r\n\r\nIrene’s Huevos Rancheros crepe had sausage and peppers inside and was topped with avocado slices, a fried egg, and pico sauce. It looked very tasty. I also enjoyed The Old Forge, a crepe made with bacon, egg and cheese, then has pico on top, which is similar to salsa.\r\n\r\nWe split the Sweet Crepes, and couldn’t decide which one we liked best because they were all fabulous. Half of the table was bananas over the Bananas Foster crepe, and the rest of us adored the Graham Cracker Cheesecake crepe topped with strawberries and cherries. Seriously, wow, words can’t describe the goodness. Just go taste for yourself.\r\n\r\nLazy Susan’s Cafe &amp; Creperie is located 31A Market Street, Beaufort, SC, 29906.

However, there’s more to the show than that. Like the Andrews Sisters, the performers are a sister act. In this case, though, there are only two sisters, Emily and Lacy Miller, who are known professionally as “Gracie and Lacy”.  The sisters grew up in Missouri where their shared love of music and theater developed early. At ages 8 and 10, they hung a bed sheet curtain across their parents’ garage door, creating their own “theater” to perform musicals in, with lawn chair seating in the driveway. Their productions became a neighborhood tradition, earning the name “Broadway On The Driveway”.  The name stuck even after a few years, when the sisters moved their musical theater productions to a local performing arts center and mounted semi-professional shows comprised of up to 90 youth performers, a full orchestra, and technical crew.\r\n\r\nContinuing to both perform and direct musical theatre throughout their teens and early 20s, the duo won numerous awards and acclaim in their home state of Missouri, including grants from the Young Singers Foundation for 12 years in a row, a stint as Branson Guest Entertainers, Finalists on Marvin Hamlisch’s Star Search and recipients of a Missouri Senatorial Resolution recognizing their contribution to the arts.\r\n\r\nAlways fascinated with classic Americana and the glamor of vintage fashion, the pair decided to focus on creating their own shows based on each sister’s talents in 1997. Now touring nationally, the pair is known onstage for tight harmonies, retro costumes (which Lacy designs) and tap dancing (which Gracie choreographs), all set to the classic music of the 1930s through the 50s. This talented pair will perform “Jump, Jive &amp; Swing” at ARTworks on Saturday, Sept. 27 at 7:30 p.m.; tickets are $20.\r\n\r\nOther performances in the American Music Series include: An Elvis Presley tribute show on October 18 by Elvis impersonator Michael Viljac, The Life and Music of Johnny Mercer on October 25, Trae Gurley Performs Frank Sinatra’s Greatest Hits on November 14, and a Swingin’ Christmas Show on December 7.\r\n\r\nARTworks is located at 2127 Boundary Street in the Beaufort Town Center.

Each couple or small group planned and executed their dinners with all arriving to create a beautiful world of white linens, candlelight and guests in their finest white apparel.  Dinner was served, the sparklers were lit and just as quickly as it all began, everything was whisked away and all that remained was the natural beauty of the island ruins and the cleansing rains of a late summer storm.

She spent 12 years in New Orleans before moving first to Isle of Palms and finally to Beaufort where she runs PickleJuice Productions with her husband, Will, who handles the marketing and business side of things.\r\n\r\n“I was fortunate to work for a startup web company during my last year at Ole Miss,” says Ginger. “I designed and developed the first website for the University of Mississippi’s art department as my senior thesis.”\r\n\r\nThat website launched Ginger into the possibilities offered by the World Wide Web and after graduation she chose to apply her design degree in interactive development rather than print. After a move to New Orleans she landed a job at NewOrleans.com as their sole designer. While there she worked on many other city and country websites including NewYork.com, VisitCanada.com and ExperienceNewOrleans.com.\r\n\r\nGinger and Will have worked with a variety of clients over the years. They have developed websites for 5-star resorts, hotels, restaurants, festivals, non-profit organizations, magazines, storefronts and even a waste disposal business.\r\n\r\n“I love the diversity of clientele that we get to work with,” Ginger says. “Will and I believe that every business needs a good website presence to represent their brand and it’s really fun to make that happen.”\r\n\r\nGinger says that the PickleJuice philosophy is based on creating unique and successful design solutions and establishing long-term relationships with clients.\r\n\r\n“We’re proud of our 98 percent client retention rate,” she says. “We appreciate that every project is unique and we’ll work with clients to develop their vision and recommend services consistent with their needs and budget.”\r\n\r\nSince moving to Beaufort, Ginger says she’s been fortunate to collaborate with other local businesses like ShopLocalBeaufort.com a community campaign that was kicked off a couple years ago. The Shop Local Beaufort campaign was created to support and promote local artists and locally owned, independent businesses in Beaufort.\r\n\r\nAccording to Ginger, “As a family-owned and operated business, we know how important it is to have support from our friends, neighbors and local businesses. Most of our clients are small businesses and without them we could not survive in this tough economy. The Shop Local Beaufort campaign is our way of saying thank you and giving back to our community.”\r\n\r\nPickleJuice has also developed websites for many of local non-profit organization including CAPA, Born To Read and The Junior Service League of Beaufort.\r\n\r\nGinger and Will recently started working on a new project that is solely owned and operated by PickleJuice. BeaufortBride.com is a new website that they are launching to help in planning a wedding in Beaufort, Hilton Head, Bluffton  and the Sea Islands of Beaufort County.\r\n\r\n“BeaufortBride.com highlights preferred local wedding vendors, real Lowcountry weddings, exquisite venues, impeccable bridal style, unique inspirations and the true southern hospitality of Beaufort County, South Carolina,” says Ginger. “Our goal is to provide Beaufort brides, grooms and their families with quality resources, creative ideas and exquisite details to help them plan their memorable Lowcountry wedding.”\r\n\r\nParents to 4-year-old Hogan, who goes to school at Miss Linda’s, and 1-year-old Cecila, Ginger and Will look forward to building their business in Beaufort.\r\n\r\n“We love Beaufort and look forward to growing our business and raising our family here. The Lowcountry holds a special place in our hearts and we hope to stay here for a very long time,” Ginger exclaims.\r\n\r\nPickleJuice Productions is located at 308 Charles Street, Beaufort.

Every guest who purchases a ticket by Jan. 16 will receive a personal invitation to one of the parties.\r\n\r\nFollowing dinner, guests will make their way to the ball. The festivities will include a silent auction, dancing and decadent desserts. More than 500 people are expected to attend this year’s event.\r\n\r\nSince its inception in 1990, the Valentine Ball has raised nearly $4.2 million for the non-profit hospital. Proceeds from the 2015 event will help finance the renovation and much-needed expansion of the Intensive Care Unit.

Hugging Amy is her mother, a 30-year retired Beaufort County teacher. Smiling and clapping, center, is Whale Branch Middle School Principal Matt Hunt.[/caption]\r\n\r\n“Amy exemplifies the key characteristics of a passionate teacher and natural born leader,” said Superintendent Jeff Moss. “Her students succeed because of her skill at engaging them and instilling them with confidence. She encourages, and she pushes, and she challenges them every day to do their best.”\r\n\r\nAfter the announcement, Martha Hartley, chief financial officer of Hilton Head Buick-GMC-Cadillac, offered Simmons her choice of three new cars donated by the dealership for her to use over the coming year, or a $5,000 check. Simmons, who had recently purchased a car, chose the check.\r\n\r\nSimmons has been teaching music and directing the band at Whale Branch Middle since 2010 and says her proudest moments in teaching are when students find relationships between standards from their core curriculum within their music lessons.\r\n\r\nPrincipal Matthew Hunt said that while there are many terrific teachers in Beaufort County, it takes a truly gifted and special person to make a difference in the lives of those considered “at-risk” students. “Amy Simmons has worked tirelessly to build and establish quality instructional and educational opportunities for students throughout Beaufort County,” he said, “and we are fortunate that this former Beaufort County student has chosen to call Whale Branch Middle her home.”\r\n\r\nAccording to Simmons, her teaching philosophy is based on a quote that she adopted early on: “Teaching music is not my main purpose. I want to make good citizens. If children hear fine music from the day of their birth and learn to play it, they develop sensitivity, discipline and endurance. They get a beautiful heart.”\r\n\r\nOne of Simmons’ greatest accomplishments in the classroom was in 2012 when she won a Mr. Holland’s Opus Grant, which purchased much-needed equipment for music classes. Included in that equipment was a collection of steel drums, and over the past two years, the Whale Branch Middle steel drum band has travelled all over the Southeast to perform.\r\n\r\n“I chose this profession to help students succeed,” Simmons wrote in her Teacher of the Year application. “I chose this profession to give students the opportunities I had growing up in this very same district.”\r\n\r\nSimmons educational background includes: EdS. Education Administration from South Carolina State University; M.A. Teaching with Specialization in National Board Certified Teaching Leadership from National University; B.S. Music Education from South Carolina State University.\r\n\r\nThe four other finalists for 2014-15 District Teacher of the Year were Michelle Henry of Whale Branch Elementary, Caroleen Hodge of Port Royal Elementary, Annette Lee of Hilton Head Island High School, and Sharon McMahon of Bluffton Middle.\r\n\r\nBecoming District Teacher of the Year is a three-step process that begins when school-level teachers of the year are selected in April. Those wishing to compete for District Teacher of the Year submit detailed applications by the end of July.\r\n\r\nIn the second step, a selection committee consisting of parents, former educators and community leaders from across Beaufort County reviews the applications and rates them using a numerical scoring system.  The five highest-scoring applicants are named as finalists.\r\n\r\nIn the third step, the finalists are interviewed by a separate review committee again composed of judges from across the county.  Those panelists begin by reviewing videos of the teachers doing classroom lessons. The judges then score candidates based on how well they respond to questions about the teaching methods shown in the videos, as well as how they respond to questions about current education issues.', 'Teacher of the Year: Whale Branch Middle music teacher honored', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'teacher-of-the-year-whale-branch-middle-music-teacher-honored', '', '', '2018-07-12 11:00:37', '2018-07-12 15:00:37', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18988', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(18997, 4, '2014-10-02 08:56:35', '2014-10-02 12:56:35', '<b>By Tracie Korol</b>\r\n\r\nI love life hacks. You know, those “why didn’t I think of that!” things that provide clever solutions to mundane problems. My current faves are using a can opener to breach dreaded clamshell packaging in lieu of inviting a paring knife wound; stretching a rubber band across the top of a paint can to use as a brush wiper; and the one in play right now, a key ring threaded through the tongue of my pants zipper, looped around the button until I stop being too lazy to replace the zipper that won’t stay up.\r\n\r\nDogs have hacks, too! Here are a few that might make your life, and your dog’s life, easier:\r\n\r\n1. Attach a carabiner (a metal clip that allows rock climbers to link together ropes and harnesses) to your dog’s leash or collar. Carabiners come in handy: If you need to secure your dog to any stationary object; if you need to connect multiple leashes to walk all your dogs at once; if you need to attach your leash to a belt loop to free up your hands.  And, you can attach your keys to your dog if you’re going for a run together.\r\n\r\n2. If your dog is a manic food gobbler (and you have one of those breeds prone to bloat), feed your pet on a rimmed cookie sheet. He’ll be forced to slow down if he wants to hoover up every last morsel. Some hacks for this problem suggest placing rocks or balls in the food bowl so as to force a dog to eat around the obstacles.  Good idea, though I have dog friends smart enough to simply remove the ball, shoot the owner a “seriously?” look and continue sucking down food, and also dog friends not so smart as to eat the rocks, too.\r\n\r\n3. Use a squeegee to remove dog hair from carpet <i>before</i> vacuuming.   Or, if you want to see how ineffective your vacuum is, use the squeegee <i>after</i> vacuuming. It’s amazing how much dog hair you’ll skim off the rugs. A damp rubber glove is useful for removing hair from furniture.\r\n\r\n4. Don’t put your pet’s name on his ID tag. When your dog responds to his name, it only makes it easier for the thief.  Also, if you’re the only one who knows his name, it will make it easier to prove you’re the rightful owner upon recovery. A phone number on the tag is sufficient when your dog is already microchipped.\r\n\r\n5. If your dog gets loose, do not chase him. To him, it looks like you’re coming along on his walkabout.  Yippee! Rather, lie down and pretend you’re hurt. Yelp, whimper. They’ll come back to make sure you’re all right. If that fails, run the opposite direction while making happy “come play with me” sounds.  They’ll want to get in on the game.\r\n\r\n6. If you have a puppy or lifetime devoted chewer, wipe down exposed cords with eucalyptus oil, Vicks or Mentholatum. Dogs dislike how it smells and even more, how it tastes.  Some hacks suggest using Bitter Apple spray but I’ve found dogs tend to think of that as a condiment.\r\n\r\n7.  If you like animal movies but are devastated if an animal is hurt, left alone with the zombies or contracts a terminal illness, go online and check the website http://doesthedogdie.com for a quick heads-up.  Saves a lot of heartache.\r\n\r\n8. Always, always reward your dog. Every time your dog does something correctly, a simple “Good dog!” is enough for your Best Friend to know that he IS your best friend.\r\n<div></div>', 'A few hacks for your dog', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'a-few-hacks-for-your-dog', '', '', '2014-10-02 08:56:35', '2014-10-02 12:56:35', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=18997', 0, 'post', '', 0);

(19001, 4, '2014-10-02 09:28:10', '2014-10-02 13:28:10', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nThis week’s wine seems an appropriate choice to celebrate the fall season — a deep, dark red that can bring out the bold (and perhaps sinister) side.\r\n\r\nThe AVA today, for the source of our wine’s grapes, is the Lodi District in California. Although, the company that makes our wine is in Napa Valley. We’re all wine savvy enough to know that grapes from one place can be fermented in another, especially in many New World wine-producing areas.\r\n\r\nThe Lodi area is located 100 miles east of San Francisco, south of Sacramento and near the delta of the San Joaquin River. This area is best known for producing full-bodied Zinfandel wines, but it also produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier. Grapes have grown in the Lodi area since the 1850’s, and, today, there are about 100,000 acres of vines and more than 750 growers. These vineyards and growers are responsible for about 20 percent of all the wine grapes grown in California, more than Napa and Sonoma together.  The Lodi AVA is about 500,000 acres, and it is divided into seven smaller AVAs.\r\n\r\nAll of which gets to our grape variety for this week: Petite Sirah. To start with, Petite Sirah and Syrah are not the same. (Syrah and Shiraz are the same.) Both Petite Sirah and Syrah are varieties that come from the Rhône Valley in France, both can make rich, big red wines. Syrah, under its Shiraz name, travelled from France to Australia and became popular and prolific. Petite Sirah managed to travel to California in the late 1870’s, mostly to the central valley where it was used to give color and tannins to jug wines. Many home winemakers found Petite Sirah good for their wines as well.\r\n\r\nBy 1900, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel and Mourvèdre were the most planted grapes in California. Field blends became very popular with Italian immigrants at the turn of the century. Assorted grape varieties were grown in one vineyard, field, all together and then fermented into wine, still all together. Of course, this was before wines from specific varieties became popular.\r\n\r\nBut, in 1961, Concannon Vineyards in Livermore Valley made the first Petite Sirah labeled varietal wine; the first time this grape was shown to be good enough on its own. With the success of this one wine, California plantings of Petite Sirah reached 14,000 acres by the late 1970’s. But, nothing lasts forever. Today there are only about 2,500 acres.\r\n\r\nSo, where did Petite Sirah come from?  Yes, France, but who were its Mom and Dad?  Well, that question has had various answers over the years. François Durif, a French botanist in the 1860’s, kept a nursery at his home where he grew several grape varieties. Somehow, at some point, two of his vines, Peloursin and Syrah, cross-pollinated and he had a new variety. In 1868, this new grape was named for him: Durif. DNA testing at the University of California Davis in 1997 confirmed this variety and its parents. It was this new variety that travelled from France to the vineyards of California, this variety that was part of so many field blends. And this variety that now accounts for about 90 percent of grapes in California vineyards that are called Petite Sirah. (The other 10 percent are bits of leftover varieties that were also in field blends.)\r\n\r\nAnd where does the name Petite Sirah come from? It’s just a name, probably used before DNA accuracy when the leaves of Durif vines looked similar to Syrah’s leaves, but the Durif grapes looked smaller than Syrah grapes. Legally, in California now, both Durif and Petite Sirah are recognized by the ATF. Wines can be labels with either name, but they are not considered synonyms. Poor Petite Sirah, we can’t even keeps its name straight. Oh, well. We can still drink it, no matter what we call it.\r\n\r\nPetite Sirah, or Durif if you prefer, wines are deep, dark, inky wines. And dense colors mean dense flavors and textures. These wines can be relatively acidic, but they have firm textures and mouth feels. Their aromas are herbal, with black pepper, black fruits like blackberries, spices, licorice, plums, smoke, leather and blueberries. Compared to Syrah wines, these are fuller and rounder, darker colored, especially with purple hues, and brighter in your mouth.\r\n\r\nDespite being named for its small grapes, this variety makes big, bold wines. It seems the high skin to juice ratio plays a part in it all. Massive, chewy and masculine are all good descriptions for good Petite Sirah. Because of their weight, these wines age well. In fact, they improve with aging, long aging, like 10 years.\r\n\r\nPairing food with Petite Sirah is easy. Big bold wine goes with big, bold, full-flavored food. Red meat is a given, especially grilled and barbecued beef, venison, bison, wild pig. Lamb goes well, too. The acidity and astringency in the wine keeps the lamb fat in line. Spicy and rich sausages are also perfect. For cheeses, think sharp and aged such as Cheddar and Gouda. But, there’s a lot more Petite Sirah goes well with including roasted and grilled vegetables, red sauces, pizza, burgers, hearty shrimp and grits, bacon (meaning many dishes flavored with bacon) and spicy foods.\r\n\r\nOur wine of the week, Seven Sinners Petite Sirah, is 100 percent Petite Sirah — no field blend left behinds. It has velvety textures with deep, rich flavors such as blackberry jam, blueberries and black pepper spice. And, my favorite part of this wine, is a long, lingering finish. The flavors and textures just hold on your tongue and linger around your mouth for minutes after your first sip.\r\n\r\nThis month, gather six of your most fun-loving friends so you can call yourselves “the Seven Sinners” as you drink this big, bold wine. It can be found at Bill’s Liquors on Lady’s Island for only $14.99.

This was a perfect excuse for my husband to run out and buy a Smart TV. We didn’t realize that it requires some intelligence to operate a Smart TV.\r\n\r\nAt home, we opened the box and removed the unit,  the set-up guide and the user manual. Imagine our surprise when the first direction on the set-up guide was titled “Unpack — Taking the TV out of the box.” Right away we knew we were in trouble since we had failed to remove it correctly and most likely voided the limited warranty.\r\n\r\nThere was also a note at the end of the set up guide that said, “Scan this QR code with your smart phone to see helpful videos.” We burst out laughing since we don’t scan QR codes nor did we realize that those little barcodes were called QR codes.\r\n\r\nThumbing through the 34-page user manual, we discovered we had bought a unit that featured a Smart Hub, a multi-purpose entertainment and family center.  We thought we had just purchased a TV set. After all the precautions and features were read, we finally got to the page titled “Turning On and Controlling the TV.” Oh no! Another remote control. Every electronic now has its own unique device.  The remote control for my cable service provider has the volume on the left and the channel changer on the right. The new Smart TV remote is completely opposite.\r\n\r\nIt occurred to me during this process that I have lived through the television evolution. The first television I recall as a girl was a huge box that had two knobs. One knob was the on/off switch and also adjusted the volume, and the other knob was for switching to one of the three channels available — NBC, CBS and ABC. The TV set contained an assortment of tubes in the back and the television repair man, with his large box of tubes,  would come to our home to fix it when needed. It was all very technical. We have certainly come a long way.\r\n\r\nFortunately for us, the user guide did provide the Tech Support number so we could get some help. After we finally got the TV operating with the help from  Bob, our technician, my husband informed him there had been one thing missing from the box.

(19026, 4, '2014-10-02 09:44:29', '2014-10-02 13:44:29', 'Hoping to stimulate private investment in the Boundary Street Redevelopment District by clarifying some development restrictions, Beaufort city planners continue to tweak the Boundary Street Code.\r\n\r\nThe Boundary Street Redevelopment District’s design standards were created to encourage and spur a predictable, walkable development pattern along the road to go hand-in-hand with the upcoming streetscape improvements that have been planned since 2006.\r\n\r\nWhile still needing review and approval by the Beaufort City Council, the proposed code changes were discussed during a public hearing at the Sept. 23 City Council meeting, with more comments and discussion likely to take place at an October 21 council work session.\r\n\r\nThe city’s goal is to maintain the design integrity of the district, while making it possible for buildings to be constructed economically to encourage business growth along the corridor.\r\n\r\nBeaufort is working on a $28 million project to renovate a section of Boundary Street, the gateway to Beaufort and the Sea Islands. Construction is expected to start in early 2015. The project, partly funded by a federal grant, will improve safety, aesthetics and curbside appeal of affected properties.\r\n\r\nThe seven fundamental goals of the Boundary Street Code are: Interconnect it all; Create traffic capacity with safety and character; Plan for feasible, phase-able pieces; Make Boundary a walkable “great street”; Grow a mix of uses and a mix of housing types; Assemble a green network; link marsh views; Grow a memorable entrance to Beaufort and its National Historic Landmark District.\r\n\r\n“The desire of the city is to see the private investment keep pace with the publicly-funded infrastructure that we’ve been putting in place the last several years and will continue to do with the Boundary Street project,” Beaufort City Manager Scott Dadson said.\r\n\r\n“We believe these code adjustments can help accomplish that and will make it easier and more economically feasible for people to do business and to start or expand their business in the Boundary Street Corridor.”\r\n\r\nThe Beaufort-Port Royal Metropolitan Planning Commission scheduled a workshop for Oct. 1 to discuss the proposed revisions. The commission is scheduled to make a recommendation on the proposed changes at their Oct. 20 meeting.\r\n\r\nA number of changes to the Boundary Street Code have been proposed, some of them simple text clarifications and several of them “major changes,” according to Beaufort City Planning Director Libby Anderson.\r\n\r\nThe important changes address the following areas:\r\n\r\n<b>• Appeals process: </b>Staff is proposing changing the appeal body from the Planning Commission to the Design Review Board (DRB). The purpose of the DRB is to review plans for new construction outside the Historic District, and so it is the appropriate board to consider appeals regarding design issues.\r\n\r\n<b>• SCDOT ownership of the majority of the roads:</b> Staff is proposing changes that give staff more flexibility to adjust the build-to lines to accommodate building frontages that are not currently permitted in the SCDOT right-of-way. These include colonnades, arcades and balconies.\r\n\r\n<b>• Two-story building heights: </b>Staff is proposing to eliminate the two-story requirement for non-residential buildings and apply a taller minimum first floor height for one-story buildings. This would apply in all areas except in a new two-story overlay zone, proposed to be located at the primary intersections of Ribaut Road/Boundary Street and Robert Smalls Parkway/Boundary Street. Mezzanines would be permitted to fulfill the two-story requirement in this area, and specific mezzanine standards are added to the code.\r\n\r\n<b>• Frontage goal:</b>\r\n\r\no   A minimum goal requirement was added to regulate the percentage of building that should be built along the street frontage at the setback or build-to line. Generally it’s 60 percent in the more urban areas and 40 percent in the less urban areas. Staff felt that this was important because the Boundary Street Code is focusing on creating urban places, and the amount of street frontage that is comprised of buildings is a key part of this. Minimum frontage requirements are common standards in form-based codes.\r\n\r\no   Frontage elements such as arcades, colonnades, storefronts, porches, etc. were consolidated and clarified to eliminate confusion between general glazing requirements, and glazing requirements for specific frontage types.\r\n\r\n<b>• Window requirements:</b> New language distinguishes glazing requirements for residential versus commercial construction.\r\n\r\nMaximum parking requirement: This was added to the code so it now has minimum and maximum parking standards. There are maximum parking requirements in the city’s standard zoning districts, so it seemed reasonable to apply these same standards to the Boundary Street zone.\r\n\r\n<b>• Drive-Through Special Exception: </b>These standards were updated and clarified as a result of several meetings regarding the proposed Starbucks coffee shop.\r\n\r\n“We have met with developers, architects, and people involved and affected by the Boundary Street Redevelopment District,” Anderson said. “We have listened to their concerns. Our recommendations reflect what we think are the best ways to address those concerns while also protecting the goals of the Boundary Street Redevelopment District as it begins to take shape.\r\n\r\n“As the mayor says so often, we must continually seek to preserve the ‘sense of place’ that is so important to Beaufort,” Anderson said. “It’s what attracted many of us to live here or to stay here, and it’s what keeps drawing people to Beaufort.”\r\n\r\nFor more information about this and other City of Beaufort projects, visit www.cityofbeaufort.org.', 'Beaufort planning staff reviews, tweaks Boundary Street Code', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'beaufort-planning-staff-reviews-tweaks-boundary-street-code', '', '', '2014-10-02 09:44:29', '2014-10-02 13:44:29', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19026', 0, 'post', '', 0);

The study, published in the August edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association, compared the rate of hip fractures in more than 400,000 Medicare patients who had cataract surgery with a matched group of patients who did not have their cataracts removed.\r\n\r\nOlder people are more likely to fall and break their hips or other bones, and recovering from such injuries is often difficult for them. Earlier studies have found that vision loss is a key reason for seniors’ higher risk of falling. When cataracts and other aging eye problems decrease older people’s visual sharpness and depth perception, they also lose the ability to maintain balance, stability and mobility.\r\n\r\nPeople should never be regarded as “too old” to have their cataracts removed. Other studies show that after cataract surgery, older people tend to sleep better, be less depressed, and lead more active, enjoyable lives.\r\n\r\nOverall, the greatest decrease in hip fracture risk was seen in patients aged 80 to 84 who had cataract surgery. Another notable group was patients with severe cataracts, for whom risk was reduced by 23 percent. Although U.S. health statistics show that women are more susceptible to hip fractures than men, this study found no significant gender-linked differences in fracture risk.\r\n<div></div>', 'Study: Hip fractures less likely after cataract surgery', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'study-hip-fractures-less-likely-after-cataract-surgery', '', '', '2014-10-02 09:47:25', '2014-10-02 13:47:25', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19032', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Upshaw, Ph.D., the chancellor of the University of South Carolina Beaufort, announced today she will retire after serving as USCB’s chief administrative officer for 15 years.\r\n\r\nDr. Upshaw sent an email to faculty and staff notifying them that she plans to retire on Aug. 15, 2015. She said it was her “distinct honor” to serve USCB for the past 31 years, beginning as an adjunct professor and concluding her career as its chancellor.\r\n\r\nIn 1999, Dr. Upshaw was appointed Dean of the University — the first woman to lead a campus of the eight institutions in the USC system. Her charge from the community was to grow the institution — to serve a historically impoverished population in a four-county region of the state that had no access to a public or private baccalaureate education. After a statewide campaign by Dr. Upshaw and several community leaders, the USC Board of Trustees and the South Carolina Commission for Higher Education voted to encourage USC Beaufort to pursue baccalaureate status in 2002.\r\n\r\nWith the institution’s change in role and mission now a publicly stated goal, Dr. Upshaw was promoted to Chancellor of USCB, reporting directly to the President of the University of South Carolina. She was the first woman to lead a senior, baccalaureate campus of the university system.\r\n\r\nUnder Dr. Upshaw’s leadership, the USCB strategic plan to gain baccalaureate status was approved by the Southern Association for Colleges and Schools. In 2004, the first baccalaureate graduates of the University of South Carolina Beaufort received degrees. In that same year, a new 200-acre campus opened at the gateway to Hilton Head Island.\r\n\r\nSince then, USCB has tripled its academic degree programs, doubled its FTE enrollment, opened its first on-campus housing (now serving up to 680 students), joined the NAIA Sun Conference, and fielded conference and national award-winning Sand Shark athletic programs in nine sports. The university’s two campuses serve a diverse student body of more than 1,700 students. Dr. Upshaw played a pivotal role in adding such new academic majors as Computational Science and Nursing, both of which are supported by extensive, state-of-the-art laboratories.\r\n\r\nDr. Upshaw served as a guiding force for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), which today accounts for more than 1,500 members. In total, they participate in more than 1 million course hours annually, which places USCB’s OLLI program in the top 10 in the country.\r\n\r\n“Jane Upshaw is a dynamic educator and leader. The size of her vision for USCB, the courage of her commitment to grow a small two year college into a regional comprehensive university and her 15 years of continuous leadership at USCB have yielded exceptional results. The realization of the dream of a full service baccalaureate university offering affordable access to students in the Lowcountry is her significant and enduring contribution to our state,” said Paula Harper Bethea, executive director of the SC Education Lottery and President of USC MyCarolina Alumni Association.', 'USCB Chancellor Upshaw to retire in 2015', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'uscb-chancellor-upshaw-to-retire-in-2015', '', '', '2018-07-12 11:00:36', '2018-07-12 15:00:36', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19081', 0, 'post', '', 0),

My intention behind this share was simple: To inspire others to feel confident in sharing their significant stories, too.  We all have at least one story, or more, that has allowed for great growth and lessons learned, so if it can support someone else, why not just share it?\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19084\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Awakenings-Brittney-Hiller.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19084\" alt=\"Yoga teacher Brittney Hiller\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Awakenings-Brittney-Hiller-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a> Yoga teacher Brittney Hiller[/caption]\r\n\r\nWhile in conversation with a massage client, the idea to share my story popped into my mind and I took action to share it with others. It was already posted on the “What I Be” Project’s website, so why not share it again? I actually didn’t expect anyone to read it, I thought it would get lost down the Facebook scroll drainpipe. Plus, I posted it on a sunny Saturday afternoon, during Water Festival for cryin’ out loud!\r\n\r\nHowever, it didn’t get lost and it was read and shared by many and for that, I am thankful. The response I received from my share was overwhelming as I never expected it to reach so many — oh, the wonders of social media.\r\n\r\nApparently, my story touched a lot of people that day and inspired others to share their stories — not in a victimized way but rather an empowered, courageous way. Bravery lies in all of us and we must share our bravery to enliven another’s.\r\n\r\nI enjoy beginning the rippling effect of conversations and bringing to life hope and inspiration into everyone I meet, why on earth do you think I’m a yoga teacher? To just yell at people all day and remind them to breathe? No! I get to inspire others every day, and I love it!\r\n\r\nAs a quick side note, my husband had a different response to my decision to share my story on social media. He thought a share on Facebook equaled a simple feed to the ego. He asked, “How many likes will you get? Is that what you’re after?” I told him I was not; I was after the ability to share. Although more people than I ever imagined saw (and possibly read) my story, my intention was for people to read it.  When we share our story from the heart rather than the ego, it becomes heartfelt by those who need to hear the underlying messages and lessons learned.\r\n\r\nAlthough I am thankful for the love I received that day, as the memories came flooding back with fresh cleansing tears being shed, I am equally grateful for the overwhelming support, stories, and heartfelt confessions that my story inspired others to share.\r\n\r\nTruly grateful and thankful, I am excited to see the bravery in you light up as you begin to share those stories that maybe you buried thinking no one would want to hear and have been afraid to tell. You just never know who you will touch or what ripple effect you will begin.\r\n\r\n<i>Brittney Hiller is known as one of the happiest Yogini’s — she has practiced yoga for over a decade and can be found at every yoga studio in Beaufort.

In January, President and CEO Rick Toomey was elected chairman of the South Carolina Hospital Association’s board of trustees. Then in May, Beaufort Memorial general surgeon Dr. Tim Pearce was installed as president of the South Carolina Medical Association.\r\n\r\n“One of the advantages the hospital has is that it can attract top talent because Beaufort is such a desirable place to live,” said Schulze, a retired health care executive who moved to the Lowcountry in 1998. “For a community of our size, we have a tremendous pool of talent.”\r\n\r\nSchulze himself boasts an impressive resume that includes stints as vice president and elected corporate officer of Pfizer Inc., and president and CEO of Medeva Americas Inc., a NYSE-listed, London-based pharmaceutical company.\r\n\r\nThree years after moving to Beaufort, Schulze was named to the board of Broad River Healthcare, a 501(c)(3) organization that supports Beaufort Memorial. The following year, he joined the hospital’s nine-member board. His fellow board members elected him chairman in 2008.\r\n\r\n“For every one of his 12 years on the board, and most especially for his six as chairman, Jerry was unstinting — utterly unstinting — in his efforts on Beaufort Memorial’s behalf,” said BMH President Toomey. “Simply put, he used his prodigious talent, limitless energy and broad experience in the business of health care to make things happen and get things done.”\r\n\r\nDuring Schulze’s tenure, the hospital initiated a wide range of improvements, including a $14.5-million renovation and expansion of the emergency department, construction of a four-story medical and administrative building, purchase of the advanced da Vinci Si Surgical System, state approval to perform life-saving emergency cardiac interventions, and ongoing technological upgrades that have earned the hospital “Most Wired” status 11 years in a row by Hospitals &amp; Health Networks magazine.\r\n<div></div>', 'Former Beaufort Memorial Hospital board chairman awarded high honor', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'former-beaufort-memorial-hospital-board-chairman-awarded-high-honor', '', '', '2014-10-02 11:21:36', '2014-10-02 15:21:36', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19096', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Beth Lewis has been known to rise at 5 a.m. three times a week to walk the McTeer Bridge so she could work out before her son wakes up. Then she commutes to her job with the Town of Bluffton in the stormwater division, which often takes her into the marsh and waterways, sampling water quality and stormwater runoff.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19100\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/The-Three-of-Us.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19100\" alt=\"The Lewis Family: Beth and Rob with their son Benjamin, 3.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/The-Three-of-Us-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a> The Lewis Family: Beth and Rob with their son Benjamin, 3.[/caption]\r\n\r\nAs producer and director with The County Channel, Rob Lewis can be seen all around Beaufort County shooting local events and educational programs, even sports tournaments that last late into the evening.\r\n\r\nThey are also busy raising their energetic son, Benjamin, 3, who attends The Little Brown School in Port Royal. On the weekends, they all like to spend time at the downtown playground, at The Sands or exploring Hunting Island State Park.\r\n\r\nBeth said it is important to take pride in what you do. “We all have to work for eight hours a day so being happy and feeling like you are contributing to society is what makes it all worth it.”\r\n\r\nBorn and raised in Charleston, Beth and Rob both attended the College of Charleston, where they met through a mutual friend. Beth said, “Rob and his friends made their first full length feature called ‘The Hard Way Out.’ I tagged along with a friend for the party, and it was there we met. We dated for several years and married in 2008 at my old neighborhood dock with a view of Charleston.”\r\n\r\nThat film also proved to be the start of Rob’s career in video production. “‘The Hard Way Out’ was supposed to be a 5-minute project for a class. It turned into a 42-minute action-comedy-buddy-cop-epic movie. I haven’t put the camera down since,” Rob recalls.\r\n\r\n“I grew up in South Carolina watching ‘Nature Scene’ on SCETV. I was lucky enough to work for ETV, and meet some of the folks behind the scenes. I always admired the photography on that show,” Rob said.\r\n\r\nAt The County Channel, the main project he works on is “Coastal Kingdom.” They have a partnership with Tony Mills and the LowCountry Institute to produce the half-hour nature documentary series that Rob directs, shoots and edits.\r\n\r\nHe said one of his favorite memories was celebrating “Coastal Kingdom’s” Emmy Nominations and Telly Awards last year. “We had a big party with family and friends. And Beth made me a framed ‘Coastal Kingdom’ movie poster,” Rob said.\r\n\r\nWhile Rob captures the beauty of the Lowcountry on film, Beth plays an active role in monitoring and improving the area’s unique environment. As a Marine Biology major, Beth said she has been drawn to the outdoors since college. “I’ve always wanted a career in natural resources. Prior to working for the Town of Bluffton, I worked for SCDNR, and Beaufort County’s Solid Waste and Recycling Department, where I was introduced to the field of stormwater.”\r\n\r\nIt was the outdoors that brought the Lewis’ to Beaufort eight years ago when Beth got a job with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources at the Waddell Mariculture Center.\r\n\r\nHer current position requires several different duties, including water quality sampling, GIS field work, and stormwater education. “My favorite duty at work is the water quality sampling we do. Each week I strap on my snake boots and go out into the field to sample drainages that eventually lead to the May River. There’s nothing like being on the ground floor in this field,” Beth said.\r\n\r\nThis year, she also helped to organize the May River Cleanup.\r\n\r\nRob said the philosophy behind his work is simple: “I always just try to tell a good story with pictures.”\r\n\r\nHe produces videos for Beaufort County Schools; directs an educational series about astronomy called “The Night Skies of Beaufort County”; and has participated in the 48-Hour Film Festival in Savannah.\r\n\r\nAlthough their hectic schedule keeps them busy and on the go, the Lewis’ try to stay in focus and remember what they like best about Beaufort. They enjoy teaching Ben about his environment and exposing him to the outdoor opportunities that the Lowcountry offers.\r\n\r\nRob said, “We love the people we’ve met and had a chance to work with and learn from. Our friends and coworkers have helped strengthen our family and careers over the past eight years.”\r\n\r\nAs for the future, they are preparing for the arrival of a new baby — a girl this time.

He specializes in performing and presenting programs on the African roots of American music and culture. He is a traditional acoustic Blues singer, guitarist, historian and songwriter with personal roots in the Civil Rights era and a great affection for cross-cultural exchange. A musician all his life, Ainslie took up guitar at age 15 after hearing Virginia Bluesman John Jackson play a couple of songs in the middle of a Mike Seeger concert in 1967.\r\n\r\n“I’ve spent the past 40 years looking for the right story — the right set of facts, the right bit of history — to introduce a song,” says Ainslie.\r\n\r\nThe performance will offer attendees an intimate, poignant reflection on a moment in history capturing the geography, the people and the music of the Mississippi Delta in the post Civil War period of American history. The evening’s history tour is presented as a series of vignettes coupling Ainslie’s voice with the visual artistry of a personal collection of original and archival photos from the Library of Congress.  As such, the performance honors the African and American roots of the tradition and presents a mesmerizing tour of the music and the history of the Blues.\r\n\r\n“The tradition of acoustic blues is designed to emotionally move the listener by handing down the knowledge and ‘telling’ the story of a people who were kicked around quite a bit that also had the tenacity to get up, sing and dance quite joyously in celebrating survival,” says Ainslie.\r\n\r\nComing of age during the Civil Rights era, Ainslie approaches the tradition with the care and respect it is due. He was welcomed and accepted as an equal by many of his mentors including George Higgs of Tarboro, NC; Etta Baker of Morganton, NC; John Jackson of Fairfax Station, VA; and Willie Malloy of Fayetteville, NC.\r\n\r\nIn addition to his active performance schedule, Ainslie has a decade of experience teaching elements of African and African-American music to students of all ages, both in the classroom and from the stage. He remains deeply committed to putting living performances in front of young people, hoping to inspire them to consider the tradition as their own medium of expression. Ainslie was as a teaching artist of African Roots in the Beaufort County School District in the 1990’s and performed in Beaufort’s Waterfront Park several years ago. During his visit to the Beaufort area he will deliver a teaching concert and an after-school workshop at Beaufort Academy.\r\n\r\nThe term “Blues” has roots that pre-date the music known as “Blues” by at least two centuries. The Blues also developed differently in different regions of the country so that people speak of ‘Texas Blues’, ‘Louisiana Blues’, ‘Chicago Blues’ and the like. But the music can be divided most broadly into two distinct styles: Delta Blues from the Mississippi Delta and Piedmont Blues, also known as East Coast Blues, which were played in the more eastern states, from Washington, DC all the way to Florida. Blues guitar styles gave rise to rock ‘n’ roll and fueled the folk revival of the 1960’s.\r\n\r\n“Scott is a powerful musician, a fine singer, and a masterful storyteller,” says Bonnie Hargrove, director at the Center for the Arts.\r\n\r\nAinslie has five solo CDs to his name with a sixth, “The Last Shot Got Him,” scheduled for release later this month. He maintains an active recording, performing and teaching schedule that carries him around the country, to Canada and Europe. Ainslie has received numerous awards and grants for his work documenting and presenting traditional music. These include grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and from the Folklife Section of the North Carolina Arts Council.\r\n\r\nAdmission to see Scott Ainslie’s perform is Adults, $25; Senior, $20; Students, $15.

While it’s Beaufort Memorial’s first time hosting the monthly event, it’s certainly not their first time hosting a party.\r\n\r\nIn fact, the hospital’s popular annual Girls Night Out celebration will be back for its fifth year with music, munchies and a whole new lineup of fun activities designed to help women improve their health. The program is being billed as a marquee event of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, offering women their “ticket” to wellness with a focus on breast care, OB-GYN health and an active lifestyle.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19123\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/nurnberg_131017_07224_5355.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19123\" alt=\"These women, along with hundreds of others, attended last year’s Girls Night Out sponsored by Beaufort Memorial Hospital.

This year’s fun event promoting women’s health will be Thursday, Oct. 16.[/caption]\r\n\r\nThe free event will take place from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 16 on the second floor of the Beaufort Memorial Medical and Administrative Center on Ribaut Road (directly across the street from the hospital’s main campus).\r\n\r\nThe event has “sold out” in years past, so registration is recommended by\r\nOct. 9 in order to guarantee admission.\r\n\r\nVisit www.beaufortmemorial.org and click on the “Girls’ Night Out” banner on the homepage to reserve your ticket. (If you do not have web access or need additional information, call 522-5952.)\r\n\r\nAs they enter the venue, guests will be issued a ticket to all of the interactive displays and demonstrations, along with two beverage tickets for wine or beer.  Participants who visit all three health stations will have the chance to win prizes. The festivities also will include hors d’oeuvres and music.\r\n\r\n“We want to provide women with the information they need to make healthy lifestyle choices,” said Emily Harris, who is helping coordinate the event for BMH. “But we’re doing it in atmosphere that’s fun and entertaining.”\r\n\r\nAt the breast health area, attendees will be invited to play the popular cornhole “Tata Toss.” In this game, participants are asked to answer true or false to questions related to breast care by throwing a pink (of course) bean bag into one of two holes marked “myth” or “fact.”\r\n\r\nThe area will also include breast models used to teach women how to perform monthly breast self-exams, as well as a display explaining the difference between the new 3-D mammogram and standard mammography. General surgeon Dr. Deanna Mansker and plastic surgeon Dr. Audrey Klenke, as well as the staff of the Women’s Imaging Center, will be on hand to answer questions and provide information about breast health, while radiologist Dr. Christa Catalano will be available to discuss the benefits of the new digital breast mammography, a three-dimensional X-ray that provides a clearer, more accurate view of the breast.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19124\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/GNO-2-10-2.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19124\" alt=\"Beaufort Memorial gynecologist Patricia Thompson, MD, and breast nurse navigator Amy Hane discuss breast health with guests at last year’s Girls’ Night Out.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/GNO-2-10-2-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a> Beaufort Memorial gynecologist Patricia Thompson, MD, and breast nurse navigator Amy Hane discuss breast health with guests at last year’s Girls’ Night Out.[/caption]\r\n\r\nTo help women determine if they’re at high risk for breast cancer, the hospital will present a mini seminar on the topic — one of three breakout sessions being offered during the event. The program also will include “Maybe Baby” for women thinking about getting pregnant and “Hot and Flashy,” a discussion on menopause.\r\n\r\nIn the active lifestyle station, internist Dr. Robert Vyge will join several of the hospital’s nutrition experts to offer advice about making smart food choices, knowing your healthy weight, and the importance of regular exercise and check-ups.\r\n\r\nThe all-star lineup of medical professionals expected at the event includes members of BMH’s new OB-GYN practice, Drs. Christopher Benson, Gregory Miller and Berniece Redmond. They will be joined by gynecologists Drs. Eve Ashby and Pat Thompson. They will be discussing topics such as minimally invasive hysterectomies, hormones and menopause.\r\n\r\nFor the first time, pediatricians and anesthesiologists — essential members of Beaufort Memorial’s cohesive Birthing Services team — will be participating. Drs. Faith Polkey, Nicole Broerman and James Simmons or a healthcare professional from his practice will be available to answer questions, as will one or more physicians from Low Country Anesthesia.\r\n<div></div>', 'Get ready for a night of healthy fun: Beaufort Memorial, The Island News team up for Girls Night Out', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'get-ready-for-a-night-of-healthy-fun-beaufort-memorial-the-island-news-team-up-for-girls-night-out', '', '', '2014-10-02 11:54:43', '2014-10-02 15:54:43', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19122', 0, 'post', '', 0),
