Students are full participants in the operation of the ship, standing watch with the professional ship’s officers and crew and learning the time-honored skills of seamanship. Their individual lifestyles are tested by the strict resource conservation, long hours, and demanding physical and mental work required to sail a traditional schooner thousands of miles.\r\n\r\nThrough diligence and quickly developed time-management skills, students balance their schedules to meet their watch rotations and academic responsibilities for the following courses: Marine Science, Maritime History, Applied Mathematics: Navigation and Seamanship, and Maritime Literature. This  course of study is designed to take advantage of the sea and the immediacy of the student’s experience. Students not only earn academic credit on paper, they live and experience an unforgettable education: they snorkel coral reefs; hike through rainforests; dissect freshly caught fish; express themselves through field journals, drawings, personal entries, music and poetry; learn applied mathematics through course plotting and celestial navigation; and immerse themselves in the culture of the unique ports of call: cooking roti with Caribbean locals, dancing in the streets for Carnival, and building the foundation of a school for stateless orphans in the Dominican Republic.\r\n\r\nStudents develop a global perspective, transforming from tourists to travelers who see foreign ports as places to gain knowledge and understanding.

The title of the document is “Community Development Code”.  It is designed to serve as the guide for introduction of a form based type of zoning for the unincorporated portion of Beaufort County.  The City of Beaufort and the Town of Port Royal are in the process of implementing their own version of a “form based” code and for the most part the three codes appear to be in agreement.\r\n\r\nThe new county “Community Development Code” is lengthy, complex and not an easy read. It has been reviewed by representatives of the local technical community (engineers, architects, transportations planners, land use lawyers) who will have to work with the document as a part of their professional life. It is presently being reviewed by a committee of county council members and planning commission members. The County Planning Department is working with the Lady’s Island Community Preservation Committee to insure there are no surprises when the ordinance is approved by county council. For the general public the entire document is available at the Beaufort County web site and does allow individual comments to be made on line.\r\n\r\nOne of the objectives of the form based code is to promote sustainable walkable communities. The term “walkable” community has many definitions but is generally understood to be a community in which a resident can easily and safely walk to obtain most of the goods and services needed. In municipalities this concept is logical and easily understood.  In the unincorporated portion of the Beaufort County, with its wide range of land uses, there can be no one size fits all type of approach. Understanding this, Mr. Anthony Criscietello, Beaufort County Planning Director and his team of planners made a decision, early in the process, that transition to the new zoning code for the unincorporated portion of the county should include identifying:\r\n\r\n• Areas where high density is appropriate and walkable communities possible and utilize form based zoning in those areas.\r\n\r\n• Areas where high density development would be inappropriate and allow the present conventional zoning to remain in effect.\r\n\r\n• Community preservation areas, such as Lady’s Island, where portions for the property could benefit from a form based type of zoning and the remainder should remain with its present of zoning.\r\n\r\nThe effect of this decision on Lady’s Island is that only the commercial portion of the island (Village Center) and some of the adjacent residential areas along Sea Island Parkway will transition to the new code upon its adoption.  Since this commercial corridor is a blended (county and City of Beaufort) governed area of the island it is only logical that a similar zoning be in effect to avoid zoning shopping.  As to the rest of the island, Lady’s Island is being allowed the privilege of setting the pace for any further transitioning to the new type of zoning.\r\n\r\nA special “thank you” is extended to the Beaufort County Planning Department for adopting this common sense approach of limiting the use of “form based” zoning to those areas where the benefit is clearly defined.', 'Common sense and the form based code', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'common-sense-and-the-form-based-code', '', '', '2013-05-30 10:43:50', '2013-05-30 14:43:50', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11433', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Parks are not parking lots and the new signs de facto turn Christensen Park into one: a place where parking is legal! We residents whose property faces Christensen Park feel that this city action violates the spirit of the Christensen family’s grant. With one exception, we residents feel that there is no parking problem in the park. The public recognizes it as a designated park and do not generally leave their cars there any more than they would park in a cemetery or church yard.\r\n\r\nThere are currently 35 large old trees, two new trees and three new shrubs that have been planted by the Beaufort Council of Garden Clubs and the city. There is an attractive park bench that has been added, dedicated by the Christensen family.\r\n\r\nOver time, the park has become increasingly visually cluttered by signs. The erection of eight “No Parking Beyond this Point” signs is the latest such event. There are currently: three power/telephone poles, two “Stop”signs, four city street signs, three county road signs, one speed limit sign, one abandoned  concrete road sign, three info (Pet Waste, Park ID, Garden Clubs) signs and eight “No Parking.” That’s almost as many signs as old growth trees! Some of the signs are required; most are not.\r\n\r\nI also noted on coming home a few minutes ago that there are three cars correctly parked in the park which is a very rare occurrence. People are actually reading the signs and saying: “Oh it’s not a park as I have always thought it was. It’s actually a permissible parking area. I can legally park there. Whoopee!” I predict that the edges of the park will rapidly turn into rutted, polluted area because of this legal parking.\r\n\r\nFor a short period during the baiting season, baiters do illegally park in Christensen Park. Normally, they leave their trucks and trailers “Nose in” to the park which means that they occupy the width of their trailers along the park frontage and thus the park can accommodate large numbers. What the new signs will do is allow them to park lengthwise along the edge of the park thus greatly lessening its capacity and once again, as in the past when “No Parking” signs were put up, will force the baiters to park their trucks and trailers on the verges of our properties where they plow up our lawns and shrubs. Without the signs the baiters simply “nose in” to the park and after the short season everything goes back to normal.\r\n\r\nThe noted exception agreed generally with the majority position but pointed out that occasionally some have used the park as residential long-term overflow parking. This is a valid criticism that we residents will address and correct ourselves.\r\n\r\n<b>Norman G.G.

The intent of the county and the Friends of Crystal Lake group responsible for developing the park is to continuously monitor everything that lives in or exists at the 26 acre park so as to be able to educate future visitors to the Park about what they are seeing when they are walking its trails. Information gained from surveys like this will also help insure that future development of the property, into a passive park with a boardwalk and trails around the 7 acre lake, can be focused in such a way so as to not be disruptive of the natural habitat.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_11444\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Comm-CRYSTAL-LAKE-5-23.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-11444\" alt=\"Shown above are members of the Master Gardeners’ Association, Master Naturalist Association, Friends of Crystal Lake and the Lowcountry Institute at Crystal Lake Park where they recently conducted an inventory of the plants, birds, reptiles, fish and other creatures that live within the park’s boundaries.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Comm-CRYSTAL-LAKE-5-23-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" /></a> Shown above are members of the Master Gardeners’ Association, Master Naturalist Association, Friends of Crystal Lake and the Lowcountry Institute at Crystal Lake Park where they recently conducted an inventory of the plants, birds, reptiles, fish and other creatures that live within the park’s boundaries.[/caption]\r\n\r\nThis year’s survey expanded the species list which was started during a preliminary survey last summer. Over 120 different species of birds, plants, trees, reptiles and other creatures were observed and identified. Specifically, 33 species of birds were seen, 67 types of trees/plants were observed along with 15 different reptiles, fish, and other “creatures.” These findings represent a significant increase over the numbers recorded in last year’s survey and the belief is that as more surveys are conducted in the future that additional species will be identified. Some of the more interesting species identified included the following: black racer snake, southeastern crown snake, sheepshead minnow, mullet, alligator, grass shrimp, mosquito fish, ground skink, five-lined skink, red-jointed fiddler crab, wood stork (a federally endangered species), Cooper’s hawk, red-tailed hawk, osprey, least bittern, great crested flycatcher, eastern kingbird, great blue heron, tricolored heron, downy woodpecker, pileated woodpecker, chimney swift, painted bunting, barn swallow, Eastern bluebird, and cedar waxwing. An extensive number of trees and other plants were identified and included species such as sweet gum, live oak, loblolly pine, red cedar, hickory, water oak, yaupon holly, Southern magnolia, red bay, laurel oak, black willow, sassafras, flowering dogwood, bald cypress, black gum tupelo, coral honeysuckle, coral bean, fox grape, bracken fern, cinnamon fern, hawthorn, and Carolina jessamine.\r\n\r\nOver the course of the past year, numerous volunteer efforts have been focused on eradicating the invasive Chinese tallow tree, sometimes known as the “popcorn” tree here in the Lowcounty, and these efforts have been successful but much more work remains to be done because the tree is still present in the park area. This tree crowds out desirable native trees and limits a healthy vegetative understory growth. While these trees are still present today it is hoped that a successful eradication program will remove them completely. Water testing of the lake is in progress but early indications are that it is brackish because both salt water tidal flow and fresh rain water runoff enter the lake. Many of the plants and wildlife that were identified thrive in low salinity brackish water.\r\n\r\nA special note of appreciation is extended to all who participated in this survey effort and to the many volunteers supporting the on-going work to make Crystal Lake Park a reality.', 'A special day at Crystal Lake Park', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'a-special-day-at-crystal-lake-park', '', '', '2013-05-30 10:49:09', '2013-05-30 14:49:09', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11443', 0, 'post', '', 0),

One-hundred-and-fifty years later, on June 2, 2013, a service will be held in Beaufort, South Carolina to commemorate Harriet Tubman’s Combahee River Raid.\r\n\r\nHarriet Tubman arrived in Beaufort, South Carolina in the spring of 1862 and served as a nurse, spy, scout, and seamstress.  Tubman, with the assistance of a number of hand-picked Negro scouts familiar with the interior, gleaned considerable knowledge as to the location of supplies and the disposition of the slaves in the region.\r\n\r\nOn the evening of June 1, three steam-driven gunboats with three hundred men from the Second South Carolina and the Third Rhode Island Battery left Port Royal under the cover of darkness.  Under Tubman’s leadership, Montgomery and his small force made their way to the plantations where Tubman and her scouts had identified Confederate warehouses and stockpiles of rice and cotton.\r\n\r\nOn the morning of June 2, the troops set fire to several plantations, destroying homes, barns, rice mills, and steam engines, and confiscated thousands of dollars worth of rice, corn, cotton, horses, and other animals. Over 750 slaves fled to the Union boats. After returning to Beaufort, the newly freed Combahee slaves were temporarily lodged in a church where they were addressed by Montgomery and Tubman.\r\n\r\nAn article published in the Boston Commonwealth in 1863 describes the raid as follows: “Col. Montgomery and his gallant band of 300 black soldiers, under the guidance of a black woman dashed into the enemy’s country, struck a bold and effective blow, destroying millions of dollars worth of commissary stores, cotton and lordly dwellings, and striking terror to the heart of rebeldom, brought off near 800 slaves and thousands of dollars worth of property, without losing a man or receiving a scratch! It was a glorious consummation.”\r\n\r\nThe Commemoration service will be held on Sunday, June 2, 2013 at the Tabernacle Baptist Church in Beaufort.  Historians believe that the Tabernacle Church is where the slaves were lodged and addressed by Tubman following the raid.  The service will begin at 5 p.m. with Dr. Kate Clifford Larson, author of ”Bound for the Promised Land: Harriet Tubman, Portrait of an American Hero,” as the guest speaker.\r\n\r\nThe Harriet Tubman’s Combahee River Raid Commemoration service is a part of the Tabernacle Baptist Church’s 150th Anniversary Celebration.  Tabernacle Baptist Church is located at 911 Craven Street in Beaufort.\r\n<div></div>', 'Celebrate Harriet Tubman’s River Raid anniversary', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'celebrate-harriet-tubmans-river-raid-anniversary', '', '', '2013-05-30 10:50:22', '2013-05-30 14:50:22', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11446', 0, 'post', '', 0);

(11452, 4, '2013-05-30 11:08:03', '2013-05-30 15:08:03', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nYep. Here we go again. Another new wine. Another new favorite. For me, at least. And a chance to learn a bit while we drink a bit. Life is good!  So, off we go to Spain. It’s been a while, but summer warm and humid weather is tailor made for some of the wines we can find from Spain. After all, their weather in parts of their country is not that different from our weather here. And their types of foods, while maybe not exactly the same, tend toward lighter and easier to cook just like ours are this time of year. The fun part is we get to enjoy their wines, just with our foods. Yay!  Because it’s been a while since we did a Spanish wine, I thought we could review some of what we probably covered last time we did do a Spanish wine. Of course, now, we all know more. But, every time we repeat some tidbit of knowledge, we might make it ours permanently. That is a positive learning curve, right?\r\n\r\nSo, as review, let’s start with some information about Spanish wines in general. Spain is the third largest producer of wines in the world, after France and Italy. Interestingly, though, Spain, with just under 3 million acres planted with grapevines, has more acres of vines than any other country. The “technical” reason that they have more acres and produce less is due to low yields (a lot of old vines in Spain are still active, just making fewer grapes per vine), wide spacing between the vines in the vineyards, and dry and infertile soil in many vineyards. Spain is number nine in the world for wine consumption.\r\n\r\nThe history of grape growing in Spain is at least as ancient as anywhere else. They had an abundance of native varieties on the peninsula, and there is evidence of grapes being cultivated back to between 4,000 and 3,000 years BC. The Phoenicians, around 1,100 BC, then the Carthaginians and then the Romans all had a hand in developing wine in Spain. This extra long history is partly because of Spain’s location on the Mediterranean;  warmer weather and easy access to travel and nutrition from the sea all helped this whole area sustain early civilizations. Following the fall of the Roman Empire, the Moors conquered Spain. They were Muslims, and even tough several caliphs and emirs owned vineyards and drank wine, the sale of wine was outlawed. But, by 1364, after the Spanish regained control of their country, Spanish wines were being shipped to the rest of Europe. At times, over the years, exporting of wine helped the Spanish economy keep going.\r\n\r\nOne of the best known of all Spanish wines is Rioja. (Sherry, a fortified wine from Spain, is another but we need to skip it today.) Rioja is a DOC wine region, made up of three different sub-regions — Rioja Alta, Rioja Baja and Rioja Alavesa. Many wines that are labelled “Rioja” are blends of grapes from all three sub-regions. Wines from Rioja date back to 873 AD. This area is located in northern Spain, where it benefits from a cooler, continental climate. Mountains in the area help protect the vines from fierce winds and isolate them from storms. Most of the region is on a plateau, about 1,500 feet above sea level. Yes, a bit cooler grows better grapes. It is believed the area was named for the Oja River that flows through it. The soil here is clay based with chalk and iron. Rioja wines can be red, white or rosé. About 85 percent of them are red.\r\n\r\nGrape varieties for Rioja, red Rioja because that’s where we’re drinking this week, are Tempranillo blended with Garnacha (Spanish for Grenache), Graciano and Mazuelo (the Rioja name for Carignan). In recent years, some wineries have experimented with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, too. Special dispensations to use Cabernet and still label the wine as Rioja have been given to a few estates. These wines are good, but not what used to be considered typical of Rioja wines. They are heavier and more structured. More New World style. A characteristic of most Rioja red wines is vanilla nuances from the barrel aging of the wines. The influence of Bordeaux winemakers in the 18th century had a lasting effect on Rioja wines. Today, the typical bodega (the name for Spanish wineries) has between 10,000 and 40,000 barrels.  The amount of aging a wine gets is shown on its label.\r\n\r\nThere are legal levels of Rioja. And, these are for red Riojas. A wine labeled just “Rioja” is the youngest, spending less than a year in barrels before it is bottled. A “Rioja Crianza” is aged a minimum of two years, at least one in oak. “Rioja Rerserva” is aged a minimum three years, one year at least in barrels. And, “Rioja Gran Reserva” is aged at least two years in oak and three years in its bottle.  Reserva and Gran Reserva wines are not made every year, and, because of the wait to recoup their expenses for these wines, any bodega has to charge more for them. In some ways they are like Champagnes — not a vintage every year and more costly when they are.\r\n\r\nA quick look at the main grape variety, Tempranillo, in Riojas is worth the time. Since this variety is grown mostly in Spain, we don’t get a lot of chances to get to know it. It is a native to northern Spain. It is low in acidity and sugar content. That means the grapes it is blended with need to fill out these holes. Its wines are ruby colored, with aromas and flavors that include berries, plum, tobacco, vanilla, leather and herbs. Between the complexities derived from blending and the levels of aging,  Rioja wines can be interesting for the wine scholars among us, delicious for the tasters and new favorites for the liberated, non-Cab, Merlot, Pinot Noir die hard drinkers. Or any combination of all that!\r\n\r\nOur Rioja comes from the bodega called<b> Dinastía Vivanco</b>. It is located in the Rioja Alta sub-region. The grapes are all estate grown, with Rafael Vivanco overseeing them every step of the way. The family vineyards include several sections of old vines, whose grapes are used in their best wines. They use a unique bottle shape, based on one dating back to the eighth century that they found in the bodega museum. Using this old bottle is one way the Vivanco family pays tribute to the history and heritage of Rioja. Of course, their style of wine does the same. Our wine is their Crianza. This wine is fermented at controlled cool temperatures, in French oak barrels. And, get this, it is 100 percent Tempranillo. Think maybe some of those old vines with more intense flavors are involved? A perfect chance to taste this variety, without other grapes hiding any of it, and see how good it can be. This wine was aged for 16 months in year old French and American oak barrels, and at least six months in its bottles before being released for sale. All at $17.99. For those of us who follow such things, this wine got 90 points from the Wine Spectator and, in their list of top one wines for 2011, it was number 59. For those of us who trust our mouths to tell us, they’re right. For me, I have a new favorite. Yay again, for another week.

(11457, 4, '2013-05-30 11:09:47', '2013-05-30 15:09:47', '<b>By Tracie Korol</b>\r\n\r\nNext time you take a trip to a big box store in the middle of the day, park on the far end of the parking lot. Slip off your flip-flops and walk to the store. Chances are you won’t get too far before you slip your sandals right back on, or skippy-tap over to a grassy area.\r\n\r\nBecause asphalt is black it absorbs rather than reflects the heat from the sun. In fact, a study published in the Annals of Emergency Medicine noted that 35 seconds of exposure, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., to hot asphalt pavement could result in second-degree burns to the exposed area. That shouldn’t be surprising, given that on sunny summer days, the temperature of pavement can easily reach 300 degrees.  For a dog forced to barefoot it over such a surface, the result can be painfully burned paw pads.\r\n\r\nOr, take off your shoes and hop up into the bed of your pick-up in the middle of the day. Chances are you won’t spend too much time up there, either. We prudently do not allow our toddlers to play on the slide at midday for fear of searing their little fannies, but we load our dogs into the bed of a pick-up to go for a ride. Can you even imagine how painful it is to stand on what is essentially a hot frying pan?\r\n\r\nNotice, next time you attend one of the local festivals, how uncomfortable the attending dogs are as they wait patiently beside their humans. These dogs, while you may think are having a great time on an outing, are standing barefoot on hot pavement, sometimes for long periods of time. While a dog’s paws are the toughest part of his skin, they still need protection from heat, just like yours do.\r\n\r\nA day at the beach is not much fun for your dog, either, especially if he is not inclined to get wet. Hot sand can scald paws. Even heading down the metal boat ramp for a family day at sea can fry Fido’s feet in minutes.\r\n\r\nUnlike obvious wounds such as lacerations, foot infections (fungal, bacterial or foreign bodies — like stickers and thorns), burned pads may not be readily apparent to the eye.  That’s why pup parents need to be on the lookout for blisters or redness on the pads. Also, suspect a burn if you notice missing parts of the pads or they seem dark in color. Your dog may try to compensate for the pain of a paw pad burn by limping, refusing to walk, or licking and chewing at his bottoms of his feet.\r\n\r\nIf you suspect your dog has a pad burn it is important to keep the area cool and clean. As soon as you notice the problem (limping along on the road, lifting paws in rotation, excessive licking), flush with cool water or a cool compress if available. Sacrifice your cup of beer at the festival, if necessary. Get your dog to a grassy area or, if possible, carry him.\r\n\r\nAt first chance, examine your dog for signs of deeper burns, blisters and possibility of infection. Washing the feet with a gentle cleanser and keeping them clean is important. Bandaging can be difficult to do and to maintain (monitor and change often), but licking must be kept to a minimum, easier said than done. Some dogs will tolerate a sock for a few minutes but most dogs I know would rather chew off the sock and eat it. Lick deterrents (bitter sprays) may help reduce the damage caused by licking but many of my dog friends view any spray as a condiment.\r\n\r\nBest advice is to be mindful of hot surfaces — asphalt and metal (i.e. boat dock, car or truck surfaces). Put yourself in his place just for a few minutes; how would your bare feet feel? Walk your dog on the cool, shady side of the street or in the grass. Schedule exercise for early or late in the day or after a good rain. And while it may look silly and your human friends may razz you, lay down a wet towel for your Best Friend to stand on when grassy areas are not available. The best best friend your Best Friend can have is one who will be compassionate.\r\n<div></div>', 'Hot feet: Protect your dog’s paw pads', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'hot-feet-protect-your-dogs-paw-pads', '', '', '2013-05-30 11:09:47', '2013-05-30 15:09:47', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11457', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Then we add palatizers for taste ... We’re looking for lots of different sources of protein for our foods: hydrolyzed soy; for some of our foods in China we use worm meal.” Feather meal is being pitched as the new best thing in pet food.  Hard to believe. At some point in recent history we have been led to believe that combinations of non-foods, unknowns, chemicals and now feathers are what constitute food for our Best Friends.  When I came to understand what “dog food” was really made of, I gained new appreciation for a dog’s inbred vital force and will to survive, and usually be in pretty good spirits, on a diet of garbage.\r\n\r\nWhat follows are the ingredients from the label of one the most popular dog food brands, explained.  This list is taken directly from the white bag with colorful drawings of vegetables in the dog food aisle at most major grocery stores. Here’s what’s in it, right from the label and of course, with my commentary:\r\n\r\n<b>Ground yellow corn </b>(Number one ingredient. That means that at least 95% of this particular kibble is corn. The percentage is standardized by AAFCO — Association of American Feed Control Officials — that provides model regulations for the pet food industry. Personally, I would be a little miffed at paying so much for plain old corn.); <b>chicken by-product meal</b> (Pet grade meat by-products consist of lesser organs and parts either not desired, or condemned for human consumption. This can include bones, blood, intestines, lungs, ligaments, heads, feet, and feathers. This can also include the dreaded 4 D’s — dead, dying, diseased or dying prior to slaughter. Sorry, it’s true).\r\n\r\n<b>Corn gluten meal</b> (This is the remainder of the corn after the best parts of the corn have been removed. Primarily used as a binder.)<b>; whole wheat flour</b> (fiber source and filler); <b>animal fat preserved with mixed-tocopherols </b>(form of Vitamin E) (“Animal fat” is a “generic” fat source that is most often made up of rendered unknown animal fat, restaurant grease, or other oils too rancid or deemed inedible for humans); <b>rice flour</b> (filler); <b>beef</b> (Finally, a real food! But look how far down the list it occurs. How much real beef do you think is included in this remaining 5%?); <b>soy flour</b> (filler); <b>sugar</b> (dogs like sweet things, too); <b>propylene glycol</b> (say, isn’t this antifreeze?); <b>meat and bone meal </b>(unless labeled, “meat” can be <i>any</i> meat, dead or alive, hooved, winged, or the dreaded Wild Miscellaneous).\r\n\r\nNow comes the list of supplements that are added when the real vitamins are leeched out in the rendering process. I’ll pick out a few that may seem mysterious:  tricalcium phosphate, phosphoric acid, salt, water, <b>animal digest</b> (This is purely a flavoring agent. It is made of unspecified parts of unspecified animals, cooked into a goopy broth and used as a spray-on or is directly added to the liquid kibble mix); <b>sorbic acid </b>(a preservative); potassium chloride; <b>dried carrots, dried peas</b> (vegetables!!); calcium propionate (a preservative); <b>L-Lysine monohydrochloride</b> (known to hasten recovery from cold sores); <b>choline chloride</b> (an ammonium salt also added to chicken feed to accelerate growth); <b>added color (Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 2)</b>, (These colors are added for your benefit alone. Your dog knows the orange-colored niblets are not carrots and the green-colored ones are not peas.)\r\n\r\n<b>DL-Methionine</b> (Acidifies urine); Vitamin E supplement; zinc sulfate; ferrous sulfate; manganese sulfate; niacin; Vitamin A supplement; calcium carbonate; copper sulfate; Vitamin B-12 supplement; <b>calcium pantothenate</b> (Vitamin B5 that synthesizes fats); <b>thiamine mononitrate </b>(B vitamin complex, found naturally in pork, organ meats, legumes, nuts, and whole grain); garlic oil; <b>pyridoxine hydrochloride</b> (part of the B complex of vitamins usually naturally found in organ meats, whole grains and brewer’s yeast); riboflavin supplement; Vitamin D-3 supplement; <b>menadione sodium bisulfite complex (source of Vitamin K activity)</b> (A Vitamin K3 derivative that is reputed to aid in “blood clotting.” It has been banned from use in food and supplements for human use in many European countries due to serious side effects, including permanent damage and death); calcium iodate; folic acid; biotin; <b>sodium selenite</b> (a salt commonly used in the manufacture of colorless glass).', 'Why we need to read the label', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'why-we-need-to-read-the-label', '', '', '2013-06-06 01:51:52', '2013-06-06 05:51:52', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11465', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(11469, 4, '2013-06-06 01:53:39', '2013-06-06 05:53:39', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nI haven’t mentioned it in a long time, but our monthly tasting group just met, and because we insist on learning at these tasting, we sometimes have wines that we might not drink if left to our own devices. True, too, maybe after tasting them we still might not, but, at least with a tasting on our record, we can say we’re mature enough to have tried. And, guess what?  There is always one in the group who expected not to like the wines and is converted, which is the whole point of the wine tasting!  So, this month, in keeping with the warm weather, we tasted rosé wines.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Wine-rose.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-11470\" alt=\"Wine-rose\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Wine-rose-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" /></a>When we picture these pink-colored wines, it’s always hard for some to get past that color thing.  It’s important that we remember that these wines are made almost exactly like red wines, and from all the same grape varieties. Since the color for red wines comes from the skins (grape pulp and juice are both white), it’s easy to see that rosés must also get their color from the grape skins. The difference is just in the amount of time the juice and fermented wine is allowed to sit with the skins, soaking up more color the longer they sit together.  Reds can sit for up to two and three weeks, rosés for hours and days only.\r\n\r\nIn addition to less color getting soaked up, rosés also get fewer tannins from the skins. Tannins are that texture you feel on the back of your teeth with a red wine. And, it’s tannin that helps red wines cut through the fats in red meats. Since rosés have fewer tannins, they are balanced with higher levels of acidity. Not as much as most white wines, but enough so that they taste better slightly chilled. What we need to remember are several things — rosé wines can be very good, especially with certain foods, they can be a perfect compromise in summer warm weather, they can be fun for a change, and, best of all, they taste really good. Oh, one more thing, they can look really pretty as part of your table’s décor. Aesthetically pleasing, besides gastronomically.\r\n\r\nSo, our group met and lined up six bottles of rosé. They came from Italy, France, Spain and Argentina. In choosing them, we wanted to have a variety of styles (some lighter, some heavier, all dry, though) and grape varieties. We did not pick any from the United States only for time reasons. And, we did make sure to point out to guests that rosé wine and blush wine are not the same thing. Bar none one of the most confusing issues of doing this tasting. Blush wine is made not by letting the must soak with the skins, but by making a white wine, usually sweeter, and “blushing” it with a bit of grape juice to add some color.\r\n\r\nHere is a description of our wines and what we thought if them.\r\n\r\n<b>Santi Infiniti Rosé</b> comes from northeastern Italy, near Venice. It is actually a rosé of Bardolino (the baby version of Valpolicella), and is made from the traditional three grapes of those wines — Covina, Rhondinella, and Molinara. Yeah, we’re all going to remember that, for 10 seconds. This wine is light pink in color,  crisp and dry, with cherry and black currant flavors. It pairs really well with slightly spicy foods, like gazpacho. Our group liked this wine, but of the six we tasted, most of them preferred others. It was hard choosing because all were good, just really different from each other. For $10.99.\r\n\r\n<b>Chateau de Campuget Rosé</b> is our second wine. It is a Costières de Nimes appellation, from southern France. A blend of Syrah and Grenache, this one is very aromatic, well balanced in your mouth and has a lovely, long, fruity finish.   A bit paler colored than the first wine, the group did think this is a really well made wine, because of the aromas, balance and long finish. For $10.99.\r\n\r\n<b>Marc Roman Rosé </b>is again from southern France, the Lanquedoc area. It was a deep geranium pink shade, and, as the slightly darker color tells us, a bit fuller bodied than the first two wines. Not heavy mind you, a bit more is all. Red fruit aromas and flavors,  a hint of red roses, and mild acidity made this one of the favorites at our tasting. And, we can move the food up a notch here to hams and sausages. Of course, when the price was revealed, this wine moved into first place for some of our tasters. A deal at $6.99.\r\n\r\n<b>Torres Sangré de Toro Rosé</b> was our one wine from Spain. But, we are trying to learn that rosés are made all over the world. Coming from the Cataluña area of Spain, this wine is a blend of Garnacha (Grenache) and Cariñena (Carignan), both varieties that are popular on either side of the Pyrenées mountains.  Again, a deeper shade of pink, with hints of purple at the edges, and, again, a bit heavier than the previous wines. Still a good march for ham and sausages, roast poultry, and, because it’s Spain, saffron and paella. For $9.99.\r\n\r\n<b>Chateau d’Aqueria Tavel</b> comes from the town of Tavel in the Rhône Valley. This appellation is known for its rosés, thank goodness because that’s all they make. Most of us in our group were familiar with the name and, at some point in the past, a Tavel wine. We do have to remember that there are lots of different Tavels, just like there are lots of Napa Cabernets. This wine is a blend of many more grapes, mostly Grenache and Syrah, and some white varieties as well. And, definitely fuller bodied so it will go with grilled seafood and poultry, goat cheeses and Asian flavors. For $15.99.\r\n\r\n<b>Susana Balbo Crios Rosé of Malbec, </b>our last one, was probably the biggest surprise of any wine in our lineup. Much more color, which is explained by the mere fact that it’s made from Malbec. Malbec, a blending grape in Bordeaux, is used for two main reasons — a softer mouth-feel and deeper color. So, a rosé made from one hundred percent Malbec will have more color, without even trying. Going along with its deeper color, though, this wine was the fullest bodied of any. And, yes, it is from Argentina.  If you’ve ever been to an Argentine asado (a long, course after course meal that runs the gamete from salads to sausage to chicken to multiple cuts of beef, all cooked on an open fire) you know this wine is perfect for many of the courses. At $12.99.\r\n\r\nSo, there we are, six opened bottles of rosé, and we go through and taste them in order a second time. The second time, now that our mouths are more mellowed with the first six tastes, can get a second impression of each wine. And, as we re-visit them, we can better decide which style of rosé each of us likes better.\r\n\r\nJust like any other broad category of wine — Chardonnays, Cabernets, whatever — we have only scratched the surface of rosés. Too bad we can’t get together more often. But, we can each do some homework and taste more on our own. And, you know what?  So can you. Like the group said, maybe not what they’d ordinarily go to, but a great tasting and some eyes were opened. There’s nothing like looking around through rose-colored glasses. Rosé colored I mean!  Enjoy.\r\n<div></div>', 'Looking through rose-colored glasses', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'looking-through-rose-colored-glasses', '', '', '2013-06-06 01:53:39', '2013-06-06 05:53:39', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11469', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Owners are getting busy with summer activities and don’t have time for their four-legged responsibilities. Dogs, especially, begin needing behavior training and owners are at a loss for quality help that lasts.\r\n\r\nThe main problem with general dog training is that most “sessions” teach the dog what not to do: jump, dig, bark, chew, etc. and can be quite successful for awhile, but the dog gets frustrated and reverts back to his prior behavior. Without identifying the cause, and more importantly, replacing the behavior, your dog will always revert back. Not only must we replace the behavior, we must insure that the dog be able to get and initiate attention on his own, no by the owner or passerby. This will ensure that the dog gets his basic needs met, while pleasing his owner.\r\n\r\nThe secondary problem with most training, is that is does not involve “real world” scenarios. Private training is difficult because of the lack of distraction. Inside training is unrealistic and does not translate well to outside situations, like walking on a leash.\r\n\r\nA third, but still very important factor is that a dog cannot think and react unless they are well exercised and on a decent diet. Your trainer must be able to offer an outlet for energy prior to training as well as nutritional information unique to each dog and his needs.\r\n\r\nDuring this “abandonment season”, we encourage you to find a dog training group class that\r\n\r\n• Addresses both problem behaviors and replacement behaviors\r\n\r\n• Offers group classes both inside and outside with “real world” distractions\r\n\r\n• Trains with positive reinforcement for a well-motivated pooch.\r\n\r\nContact Kelley@BeaufortDog.com for more information.', 'Get proper training during ‘abandonment season’', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'get-proper-training-during-abandonment-season', '', '', '2013-06-06 01:54:25', '2013-06-06 05:54:25', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11472', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Waste transfer and recycling stations are facilities where municipal solid waste is unloaded from collection vehicles and briefly held while it is compacted into larger long-distance transport vehicles for shipment to landfills. When developed properly, these facilities can be seamlessly integrated into various urban and rural settings and become indistinguishable as a waste processing facility.\r\n\r\nThere are also strong benefits to the land’s location. It has close accessibility to both the Northern and Southern regions of the county which will cut down on transportation costs. Additionally, its close proximity to the existing Beaufort Jasper Water Sewer Authority’s waste treatment plant supports the clustering of these types of public infrastructure improvements thereby impacting a minimal amount of surrounding property owners.\r\n\r\nCurrently, Beaufort County has its waste shipped to the Hickory Hill Landfill in Jasper County. However, experts say Hickory Hill could reach its capacity in anywhere from 6 to 13 years. State law prohibits a new landfill facility within a 75 mile radius to an existing facility and the permitting of a transfer station can take upwards of three to five years. Therefore, once Hickory Hill has reached its capacity, Beaufort County will have limited options on where to dispose of waste if a transfer and recycling station is not created. As a result, County Council members have identified the development of this facility as a top priority.\r\n<div></div>', 'County Council approves purchase of 42 acres ', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'county-council-approves-purchase-of-42-acres', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:03:47', '2013-06-06 06:03:47', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11489', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(11493, 4, '2013-06-06 02:05:20', '2013-06-06 06:05:20', '<b>By Danette Vernon</b>\r\n\r\nI watched a home video tonight on the Internet. A moment of discovery is recorded in the video. A small child finds out for the first time, that when he is eating dinner, he is eating animals. He can’t believe it, and argues for their care instead. At the end of the video, his mom advises him to just eat his potato and rice, and skip the meat.\r\n\r\nAs adults, we know where chicken and bacon come from ... but not really. We are all so disconnected from reality in our world of fast food and grocery stores.\r\n\r\nTo allay my disconnection, I recently visited Marc and Annie at Keegan-Filion farms. And yes, the small red-hued piglets that came over to the wire fencing to sniff my hand, much as any puppy might, would be dinner someday. But at least, as Marc put it, they only have “one bad day” on his farm. The day they leave.\r\n\r\nSadly, until recently, 50 percent of the Keegan-Filion newborn baby pigs died of drowning or roll-overs that smother. Mama pigs tend to nest just before birth like many other animals, only for a mama pig, a nest is a depression dug in the dirt, and mama pigs tend to birth in storms — hence the drownings.\r\n\r\nAs an upgrade, Keegan-Filion mother pigs spend the three weeks surrounding the birth of their young in a farrowing crate. The newborn death rate is now zero. The momma pig can walk up and down, and the shavings that coat the floor are shoveled out every day. A far cry from factory farming wherein mother pigs are kept in gestation crates for their entire lives. Keegan-Filion mother pigs spend the balance of their days, beyond being a mother, lolling about out of doors in the shade. A mud wallow is never more than a short walk away.\r\n\r\nThe piglets I met will be sent to market at 25 pounds if a suckling is wanted, or when they top out at 300 pounds in 7-8 months. Until then, however, life is all leisure\r\n\r\nThe chickens on Keegan-Filion farms that end up on your plate at dinner time start out as small chicks in stacks of cages that house half of the recommended amount of chicks. Marc and Annie felt there was only room for 50 chicks, in the cages intended for 100.  Humanity is the policy on Keegan-Filion farms.\r\n\r\nEach cage has its own bottom that slides out for a daily cleaning, much like the bottom of your average bird cage at home.  When the chicks first arrive, they are kept warm, or under a fan, depending on the weather. Then those same stacks are moved into an open-air three-sided structure attached to the chicken house, so that the chicks can adjust to the reality of the temperature outdoors, hot or cold. Ultimately, they are housed in floorless shelters built over wooden skids. Their enclosures are built on skids so that each morning they can be pulled by the tractor into a new spot. That way, everyday, the chickens have fresh grass to move about on. As a bonus, the chicken manure sweetens the soil with nutrients the ground needs to grow the next round of hay. These enclosures have doors, but they are only closed at night. The chickens could walk out anytime during the day, but unlike the laying hens, these chickens are a different breed, literally, and they just aren’t interested in getting out into the world and catching a June bug. It’s been bred into these chickens to just hang around the water and food all day.\r\n\r\nIt takes four hours just to feed, clean, and move enclosures each day, and when it’s time for any animal to leave the farm, they are sent off to a certified humane processing plant, but till then, as you can see, they live the good life.\r\n\r\nKnow your farmer, visit http://www.keeganfilionfarm.com.', 'One Farmer’s Story: Part II', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'one-farmers-story-part-ii', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:05:20', '2013-06-06 06:05:20', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11493', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Siegel, MD, FAAO</b>\r\n\r\nJune is UV Safety Awareness Month.  Dr. Siegel and the staff of Sea Island Ophthalmology takes this seriously, and wants to remind everyone of the importance of keeping their eyes protected from the sun, especially during the summer months when more time is spent outdoors.\r\n\r\nUV radiation, whether from natural sunlight or indoor artificial rays, can damage the eye’s surface tissues as well as the cornea and lens.  Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the dangers UV light can pose. By wearing UV blocking sunglasses, you can enjoy the summer safely while lowering your risk for potentially blinding eye diseases and tumors.\r\n\r\nIn addition to wearing sunglasses while outdoors, below are a few more tips on how to protect your eyes from the sun’s damaging UV rays.\r\n\r\n<b>Don’t focus on color or darkness of sunglass lenses: </b>Select sunglasses that block UV rays. Don’t be deceived by color or cost. The ability to block UV light is not dependent upon the price tag or how dark the sunglass lenses are.\r\n\r\n<b>Check for 100% UV protection:</b> Make sure your sunglasses block 100 percent of UV-A and UV-B rays.\r\n\r\n<b>Choose wrap-around styles: </b>Ideally, your sunglasses should wrap all the way around to your temples, so the sun’s rays can’t enter from the side.\r\n\r\n<b>Wear a hat:</b> In addition to your sunglasses, wear a broad-brimmed hat to protect your eyes.\r\n\r\n<b>Don’t rely on contact lenses: </b>Even if you wear contact lenses with UV protection, remember your sunglasses.\r\n\r\n<b>Don’t be fooled by clouds:</b> The sun’s rays can pass through haze and thin clouds. Sun damage to eyes can occur anytime during the year, not just in the summertime.\r\n\r\n<b>Protect your eyes during peak sun times: </b>Sunglasses should be worn whenever outside and it’s especially important to wear sunglasses in the early afternoon and at higher altitudes, where UV light is more intense.\r\n\r\n<b>Never look directly at the sun:</b> Looking directly at the sun at any time, including during an eclipse, can lead to solar retinopathy, damage to the eye’s retina from solar radiation.\r\n\r\n<b>Don’t forget the kids: </b>Everyone is at risk, including children. Protect their eyes with hats and sunglasses. In addition, try to keep children out of the sun between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., when the sun’s UV rays are the strongest.\r\n<div></div>', ' Protect your eyes from the summer sun', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'protect-your-eyes-from-the-summer-sun', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:05:49', '2013-06-06 06:05:49', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11495', 0, 'post', '', 0),

The article was written from a pretty accurate point of view, however, all things considered, beauty really always boils down to matter of opinion as well. I thought it was a fun read and want to share its findings with you.\r\n\r\nAccording to sources, there are 14 beauty “don’ts” that we ladies should take into consideration, some of which I thought should actually be “snatched” and not just “taken.” The one beauty “don’t” that stood out to me was French manicures. Now, I don’t know if it’s the fact that I wear a French mani at all times or that I personally think a French manicure, on anyone, is clean, effortless, classic and time saving. I will have to disagree with this beauty don’t being added and seek counsel to have it stricken and removed from record.\r\n\r\nNow, I must add, which brings me to the next “don’t” on this list, that if your nails are more than a quarter of an inch long, a French mani, some nail bling or some crackle polish just will not make any of your looks hot! Ladylike lengths are suitable and feminine but there comes a time, particularly when your nails begin to curve like claws, that ladies should consider cutting back.\r\n\r\nAnother focal point of discussion was thick, heavy hand drawn brows. Given the fact that I have wrote endless columns on this topic and even offer the service at my salon, I don’t think we should have this problem in Beaufort County, should we ladies? As a reminder, brows come in all shapes, thicknesses and even style of design, but wear a look that is suitable for your facial shape. The look should be natural, not heavy and can be achieved with the use of powders, liners and even concealer.\r\n\r\nFor more information or questions, visit my blog at www.blb-boutiques.com.', 'What’s hot ... and what’s not', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'whats-hot-and-whats-not', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:06:27', '2013-06-06 06:06:27', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11497', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Durham, DMD</b>\r\n\r\nFor a lot of people, dentures can be a breakthrough in their appearance.  And not just because their teeth are brilliant, even and straight, but also because the right kind of dentures can make your whole face brighter and younger-looking.\r\n\r\nThere are a couple of good reasons for that.  First, as life goes on our teeth wear down, and one day our chin is not as far from our nose as it was years ago.  Even a subtle shortening of the face can add years to a person’s appearance.  Well-fitted dentures can put back that youthful set of the chin.  It cheers up the wearer and the folks around them, too.  Add to that a ready-er smile and you have results that are truly a “natural face-lift.”\r\n\r\nThe second reason goes deeper.  Many people experience some degree of pain because of the way the bones and muscles of their jaw work together.  When their alignment is off, headaches, neck and shoulder pain, clicking or hurting in the jaw, or even ringing in the ears can result.  We call it TMD, or temporomandibular joint disorder, and unfortunately it is very common.  Research shows that most North Americans feel one or more of these symptoms, and yet very often the cause stays unknown.\r\n\r\nWith TMD relieved, everything brightens up, including your comfort, your outlook and your appearance.\r\n\r\nIf you are a denture wearer, or a candidate for dentures, then the solution could be neuromuscular dentures.\r\n\r\nNeuromuscular dentures are created using the finest bite analysis available to make sure they put your jaw in its most natural position.  A computerized bite analysis and a succession of careful impressions give you a fit that puts your jaw muscles at rest.  A happy bi-product of this process it that these dentures fit far better than traditional dentures.\r\n\r\nThere’s no doubt that dentures are a big step in a person’s life.  Our team makes sure that it is a big step forward, beginning with the moment you walk into the relaxed and considerate atmosphere of our office.  Patients have said that they feel like they’re among family, and that’s our highest achievement.  It is so important that folks not hesitate to do what’s right for their health, so our goal is to make that easy, natural and comfortable.\r\n\r\n<i>A recipient of the 2012 Mastership Award from the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), Dr. Stephen Durham is a graduate of Clemson University and the Medical University of South Carolina College of Dental Medicine.

They can happen anywhere, but are most common in doorways, corridors, areas with heavy traffic, places prone to wetness or spills and stairs. By keeping these danger zones dry and clutter-free, you are reducing your family’s risk. Make sure to clean up “track-ins” and spills (wet or dry) as soon as they happen and always thoroughly dry your floors after washing. Keep pathways — especially hallways, stairs and around doors — completely clear at all times, and use a microfiber cloth to capture floor dust.\r\n\r\n<b>The Right Boost For the Job:</b> We’ve all done it. Stood on a chair or a counter to reach a high item, leaned just a little too far or even tried to reach something above our heads. It may seem like a quick fix, but the fact is that uneven surfaces, unguarded heights and unstable work surfaces are another major contributor to household falls. Add to that the perils of something falling on top of you when you’re trying to get it down from a high space and you will go for the ladder every time. Make sure the ladder you use also has a non-slick, slip resistant coating on the surface.\r\n\r\n<b>Food Rules:</b> Every time there’s a new outbreak of food borne illness, officials remind us that the first rule of safe food preparation in the home is to keep everything clean. Wash food-contact surfaces (cutting boards, dishes, utensils, countertops) with hot, soapy water after preparing each food item and before going on to the next item.\r\n\r\n<b>Substance Control:</b> For good home safety, keep all potentially harmful substances secured, well-labeled and out of reach of children, putting them away after each use and making sure child safety lids are on tightly. Merry Maids recommends you also consult each product’s manufacturer’s recommended instructions, directions and storage practices.\r\n\r\nFor more information on house cleaning, please call Merry Maids of Beaufort at 843-522-2777.', 'A clean home is a safe home', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'a-clean-home-is-a-safe-home', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:10:12', '2013-06-06 06:10:12', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11506', 0, 'post', '', 0),

If so, you might enjoy learning how to shoot these subjects in a different way.  On Monday, June 10 at 7 p.m., the Photography Club of Beaufort will host  Atlanta-based Marti Jeffers whose\r\n\r\npassion is to photograph the ordinary subjects all around us in extraordinary ways.    This genre of photography allows you to shoot — and see — your subjects in a different way than you might normally do. You can create images that remind you of paintings,  that focus on the extreme detail of a subject or use parts of a subject to create something different. Marti’s presentation will cover the use of the “Lens Baby” accessory and creative ways of shooting.  Perhaps,  this will inspire you to visit your usual subjects and see them in a different way. The Photography Club meets at ARTworks on Boundary Street.  For more information, please see www.photoclubbeaufort.com.\r\n\r\n<b>Dr. Suess inspired theater camp at USCB Center For the Arts: </b>This summer, parents can keep kids physically active and mentally engaged by signing them up for the USCB Center for the Arts and Beaufort Children’s Theatre summer theatre camps now open for registration.

Wow, what a contrast discovered between the Beaufort County School District website versus that of Beaufort County.\r\n\r\nFirst, the Beaufort school district website: It includes a summary by department then a detailed schedule of each department spending comparing the proposed 2014 budget to the forecast spending for 2013, plus actual spending for three additional prior years.  Revenue budgets were compared to previous years.  The website included an excellent 30 page budget presentation made to the Beaufort County Council.  A job well done.  In the corporate world, this would meet the standard.\r\n\r\nThen look at Beaufort County’s budget on the web.  I pulled up “Finance” and clicked on the “2014 budget”.  What did I get? Absolutely nothing!  Where is the County Council and its Finance Committee? What are they doing? In the corporate world this would get someone fired. Council members get paid for up to 144 meetings a year.  Why don’t they set policy and demand proper transparency?\r\n\r\nThe big joke is on citizen taxpayers. The County Council approves school finance and, in previous years, demanded more school data while receiving little for their own budget. The County Council has oversight of the school budget under present law, and needs a strong citizen committee overseeing  county budgets.\r\n\r\nCounty library hours have been drastically reduced by budget cuts of 25% in 2013  compared to 2008.  Yet county has  underspent this reduced budget by over $350,000 in 2012 and looks like another $370,000 for 2013.  Where did the money go?  Whose policy is this?

(11528, 4, '2013-06-06 02:27:16', '2013-06-06 06:27:16', '<b>By Chad Connelly</b>\r\n\r\nThere are few things that bring me more pleasure as Chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party than praising our state’s elected officials for focusing on truly meaningful reforms. This past week, members of our State Senate did just that.\r\n\r\nFor over a decade, school choice has been a big part of the national dialogue on education reform. In fact, 22 other states currently have school choice programs. That number is growing year after year.\r\n\r\nWhile these other states took the step toward more student-focused education systems, the South Carolina Senate managed to never even take a vote on whether or not South Carolina families should have the same options!\r\n\r\nThat all changed this past week, when Republican senators took control of the state budget process to make sure school choice finally got a fair hearing on the Senate floor.\r\n\r\nSenator Larry Grooms deserves special commendation for his impassioned support of an amendment that offered scholarships to low-income and special needs students. Unfortunately, Senator Grooms’ bold amendment was voted down by a significant margin. It troubles me to say that nine Republicans joined Democrats in voting against an idea that has been a plank of the GOP Platform for over a dozen years.\r\n\r\nDespite what some people would want you to believe, that vote was not the end of the debate over school choice. Senator Kevin Bryant rallied Senators to vote on a much more conservative school choice amendment that offers tuition scholarships to certain students with exceptional learning needs. I am pleased to say that the Senate voted to approve Senator Bryant’s amendment by a margin of 25-14. Equally encouraging is the fact that eight of the Republican senators who voted against the Grooms amendment joined the rest of the Republican senators to vote in support of a school choice amendment! I personally want to thank Senators Thomas Alexander, Larry Martin, Hugh Leatherman, Ronnie Cromer, Wes Hayes, John Courson, Billy O’Dell and Paul Campbell for their support on this historic vote.\r\n\r\nWhile very limited in size and scope, the passage of the school choice amendment is a real victory for families in South Carolina. A majority of Senators worked together to make a statement about the need for parents  — not bureaucrats — to have the final say in where a child attends school.\r\n\r\nThe fight isn’t over.\r\n\r\nMembers of the State House of Representatives will very shortly have the opportunity to take up the Bryant amendment in their own chamber. This is more than the opportunity to affirm the Senate’s vote on a small school choice amendment. it is an opportunity for leaders in the State House to urge even greater options for a wider number of families. After all, the House did pass a school choice bill last year that died in the Senate.\r\n\r\nI am calling on Republican Senators and Representatives to work together to pass the most comprehensive education reform package the Palmetto State has ever seen. We have an obligation to make sure children have every opportunity to be in the classroom that really meets their learning needs. Now we have the perfect opportunity to make good on that obligation.\r\n\r\nI look forward to our elected officials uniting behind policies that put students first.', 'School choice, though limited, is a victory for SC families', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'school-choice-though-limited-is-a-victory-for-sc-families', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:27:16', '2013-06-06 06:27:16', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11528', 0, 'post', '', 0),
(11530, 4, '2013-06-06 02:28:21', '2013-06-06 06:28:21', '<b>By Pamela Brownstein</b>\r\n\r\nWhen I discovered my due date was August 7, many people expressed sympathy over my being pregnant during the summer months. I dismissed their comments, and thought, “These people don’t know; I’m stronger than that. How bad can it really be?”\r\n\r\nNow, at 31 weeks, with my baby the size of 3 pound cabbage, I’m starting to understand why so many women lament summer pregnancies. It’s like as soon as May hit, so did my third trimester, and the two collided and the heat and extra weight nearly knocked me down. I feel like a stereotypical caricature of a pregnant lady I picture waddling around Waterfront Park before collapsing on a bench in the shade hoping no one will notice her red, sweaty face.\r\n\r\nI don’t think it makes it any easier that my son, Wolfe, has turned from a sweet baby to a full-on big boy toddler overnight. At 16 months, he is ready to go and explore everything in the world, leaving his mom and dad in his dust, exhausted and wondering how we’ll ever be able to keep up — especially once his baby sister arrives.\r\n\r\nI’ve already given up picking up his toys, the effort it takes just to bend over is almost comical, and in the end not worth it. A part of me thinks it’s kind of funny to see items completely out of place that Wolfe has carried around and quickly discarded: A fork in the bathroom, a remote control in a tupperware container on the kitchen floor, an empty milk carton swiped from the recycling bin that mysteriously reappears under the dining room table.\r\n\r\nIt sounds so cliché also, but he has grown up so fast, even in the last two months. While it is a lot of work to keep up with him, I know he’s at a super endearing age where he’s absorbing all the sounds and actions of those around him, and it’s really cute to watch him try to make the sound of a cow (“Moo” sounds more like a soft “boo”) or show you his belly button, which he thinks is pretty amazing.\r\n\r\nAnd even though most of the time I feel like a cow myself, and just want to lie on my nice cool bed with my giant belly and let the ceiling fan work its magic, I know I need to get up and make the most of the day. Wolfe will only be this way for a short time, and already I feel like I’m letting it pass me by.\r\n\r\nSo during these next two months when the humid days of summer really start to set in, I’ll be thinking about all the other moms-to-be who are sweating it out as I chase my toddler around the beach and playground, and take comfort knowing New Bebe will be here soon.', 'The Baby Diaries: Sweating out the summer', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'the-baby-diaries-sweating-out-the-summer', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:28:21', '2013-06-06 06:28:21', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11530', 0, 'post', '', 0),

She’s also on the chamber’s Military Enhancement Committee, composed of volunteers working to protect the area’s military bases and promotes the $1.5 million impact the bases have on the local economy.\r\n\r\nDailey-Vergara loved her job at WTOC and said leaving reporting was a difficult decision, but after a lot of thought and prayer she said she knew taking the communications management position was the right move.\r\n\r\n“I always thought if I left (WTOC), it wasn’t going to be for just a job — it was going to be for something I’m passionate about,” she said. “I see this chamber really going far and I’m proud to be part of it.”\r\n\r\nDailey-Vergara and her husband, Jose Vergara, were newlyweds when she got her job at WTOC and moved to the area 11 years ago. The couple — both from Indiana — were high school sweethearts, went to Indiana University together (Dailey-Vergara got her broadcast journalism degree there) and plan to call Beaufort County their home for many years to come.\r\n\r\n“I think we’d been living here for something like two months when we looked at each other and said ‘Yep, we’re staying,’ ” she said.\r\n\r\nThe two will celebrate 12 years of marriage and 20 total years together on June 23.\r\n\r\nChatting with Jamie Dailey-Vergara gives the impression of a woman who has boundless energy and enthusiasm, which are attributes handy and necessary for both her current and former jobs. She said jokingly that her demeanor should partly be credited to a steady supply of coffee.\r\n\r\n“There are a lot of things I can go without but coffee is not one of them,” she said, laughing.\r\n\r\nA caffeine dependency seems perfectly reasonable after hearing about her schedule for the past decade.\r\n\r\nAs a reporter, Dailey-Vergara would go to a special event at a school, hustle to the scene of a structure fire and then cover a football game in a single day. Her car, she said, was like a mobile office where she often ate meals and lined up interviews at a moment’s notice.\r\n\r\nHer reporter badge allowed her to witness things she never dreamed she would, she said, including covering military homecomings and flying with the Blue Angels in 2011.\r\n\r\nOf the homecomings, Dailey-Vergara said she would often tear up during the assignment because she would recognize men and women whom she’d covered when they were deployed.\r\n\r\n“You really come to understand the daily sacrifice these men and women make,” she said. “Seeing them come home safe was ... amazing.”\r\n\r\nAs for her ride with the Blue Angels, she admits they didn’t get up to 7 Gs but said they reached the “respectable” level of 5.5 Gs, she said, according to her military friends.\r\n\r\n“Something happened where we were delayed .... we ended up flying at sunset,” she said. “It was gorgeous.”\r\n\r\nOn the flip side, Dailey-Vergara said she worked long hours and often got called out of bed in the middle of the night for breaking news. With her rapidly growing daughters — Lilly, 9, and Ava Grace, 5 — it was a task that was getting harder and harder to do, she said.\r\n\r\nHer reporting skills, she said, have transferred fluidly to her new role and although she isn’t called out of bed in the middle of the night anymore, she’s still been plenty busy. And, she said, she’s enjoying the new challenge of trying to find answers for the questions media reporters toss her way.\r\n\r\nDuring an hour-long interview Dailey-Vergara’s iPhone rang, beeped and vibrated several times — in much the way the phone of a busy reporter would sound — but she said workload is welcome.\r\n\r\n“There are still deadlines, but just a different type,” she said. “There’s still pressure, but it’s a different kind of pressure.”\r\n\r\nWhen St. Helena Island native Candice Glover was competing for her American Idol title, the chamber took on the responsibility of organizing the hometown concert and fielding a flock of reporters following Glover’s fairytale-like story.\r\n\r\nWhen it came to setting up where the media would be for the performance, Dailey-Vergara said she took the reins in setting up where reporters would be set up.\r\n\r\n“It was so funny ... a few members were like, ‘We could set up the media over here,’ and I was like, ‘No they have to be over here ... they have to have a good spot,’ ” she said. “I know what I would want and so I can kind of help with those kinds of things.”\r\n\r\nThe chamber also recently lobbied to pass the film rebate bill and is currently organizing the Civitas Awards, given to various members of the Beaufort community for leadership, volunteerism and making the area a better place to live. The award ceremony will take place 6 to 9 p.m., June 28, at the Dataw Island Club.\r\n\r\nShe and the other members of the Military Enhancement Committee also have a weekly conference call with representatives in Washington, D.C.\r\n\r\nThe committee members, Dailey-Vergara said, are people whom she interviewed several times over the years, but now she knows them on a new level.\r\n\r\n“I did stories on some of them and now I’m working along with them on the same team,” she said. “It’s a good environment. Everyone has passion about what they do.”\r\n\r\nDespite the new schedule and responsibilities, Dailey-Vergara still decided she has the time and energy to start training for her second marathon, too. She ran her first two years ago while juggling parenting and reporting. The run, scheduled for November, will be with a group from her church, Water’s Edge. They’re raising money through Team in Training for a 6-year-old member who has leukemia.\r\n\r\n“I like to have a lot on my plate,” she said. “I always have to have new challenges.”', 'Jaime Dailey-Vergara knows the importance of of family, hard work, coffee and good communication', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'jaime-dailey-vergara-knows-the-importance-of-of-family-hard-work-coffee-and-good-communication', '', '', '2013-06-06 02:32:43', '2013-06-06 06:32:43', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11533', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Though imperative for it to fly south, the sparrow carries his gold necklace, crown, and precious sapphire eyes to those in need.\r\n\r\nWinter comes before the sparrow has a chance to leave, and the sparrow perishes. The Prince’s heart breaks in sorrow.  The haughty Lord Councilor tears the statue down and throws it in the fire, but the Prince’s heart cannot be melted. The dead sparrow and the broken lead heart, “the two most precious things on earth,” are retrieved by the Angel Gabriel who brings them to heaven.

(11588, 4, '2013-06-12 13:05:37', '2013-06-12 17:05:37', '<b>By Tracie Korol</b>\r\n\r\nTo our dogs, food is love — and security, affirmation, and reinforcement. When we give our dogs what I call “high-value” treats — foods that are especially sweet, meaty, and yummy-smelly — the message we want to deliver transports to them through the treat especially loud and clear. From a trainer’s viewpoint I am ever appreciative of the ability of yummies to “classically condition” a dog to tolerate, and then even enjoy, circumstances that he previously found unsettling, frightening or threatening. It’s good to reward our dogs for a job well done.  Plus it’s fun for us to feed our dog friends something they’re crazy about.\r\n\r\nThe down side is that treats are probably the most likely of all dog-related items that we buy impulsively because the labels are so cute and the names are so clever. We don’t even think to glance at the ingredients. I would hope by now, faithful readers, that you routinely flip over the dog food bags to read the ingredient list, ever searching for the very best product.  It would be counter-productive to spend time and energy finding (or making) the best healthy food for your dog if you’re going to trash your own efforts at health building with low-quality, additive-filled junk food treats. Read the label.\r\n\r\nYour mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find treats for your best friend that do not contain stuff that is not good for him such as artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. Your other mission is to also avoid treats that are bad for the planet in general. Recently, it has come to light that meat from North Atlantic fin whales is being sold by Iceland to Japan to be used in pet treats. The Environmental Investigation Agency is accusing the country’s government of breaching a global moratorium on whale hunting, calling the inclusion of the whale species in specialty dog foods in Japan “grotesque.”\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<b>Healthy treats do not contain:</b>\r\n\r\n<i>Whales</i>\r\n\r\n<i>Artificial colors:</i> Dogs are somewhat aesthetically challenged: they don’t care whether their food is brown or blue. Artificial colors are absolutely unnecessary.\r\n\r\n<i>Artificial or low-quality palatability enhancers: </i>Avoid treats that use salt as a flavor-enhancer as well as treats that contain corn syrup, sucrose or ammoniated glycyrrhizin (a licorice derivative) and artificial flavorings like barbecue or smoke flavor.  Dogs are not as swayed as we are by the mysteries of barbecue and hickory.\r\n\r\n<i>Chemical preservatives:</i> BHA, BHT and ethoxyquin, potassium sorbate, sodium nitrate and calcium propionate are chemical antioxidants added to foods to extend shelf life and reduce fat spoilage. These chemicals are responsible for the “natural bacon-y” texture of some doggy treats and the reason why, if you left a bacon-treat on the dashboard of your car it would still be “bacon-y” pliable a year later.  BHA and BHT are also used to preserve carpet.\r\n\r\nThe FDA (U.S Food and Drug Administration) regulates ethoxyquin as a pesticide and prohibits its use in human foods. However, it continues to be used in pet foods. Propylene glycol is such a uniquely nasty chemical preservative that it requires it’s own call-out. It is used in pet snacks (and some human foods) to keep them moist and chewy, and to prevent discoloration in preserved meats. It’s also used as the main ingredient in deodorant sticks, tattoo ink, and is used in newer automotive antifreezes and de-icers used at airports. An interesting use for this chemical is to create artificial smoke for theatrical productions and training exercises for firefighters.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<b>Healthy treats contain:</b>\r\n\r\n<i>Whole-food ingredients: </i>This means whole grains rather than grain “fractions” — wheat rather than wheat flour, wheat bran or wheat starch. Look for whole, named meats or meat meals — chicken, chicken meal — rather than by-products, unnamed sources (“animal” protein) or fragments. By-products and fragments of what animal would be my first question.\r\n\r\n<i>Natural preservatives:</i> Vitamins C and E (the latter is often listed as “mixed tocopherols”) are effective and safe preservatives. Some treats contain no preservatives at all.\r\n\r\n<i>Natural sweeteners:</i> Applesauce, molasses or honeys are better than artificial sweeteners, by far.  While dog food should not contain added sweeteners, a treat should still be a treat.\r\n\r\nA treat for your dog should be a treat from all angles. Tasty, occasional, a little out of the ordinary and fun.  Try this — next time you eat a carton of yogurt, let your dog lick out the container. That’s a real treat!\r\n<div></div>', 'When a treat is really a treat', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'when-a-treat-is-really-a-treat', '', '', '2013-06-12 13:05:37', '2013-06-12 17:05:37', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11588', 0, 'post', '', 0),
(11590, 4, '2013-06-12 13:06:30', '2013-06-12 17:06:30', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nThis week’s wine is not your everyday chardonnay, but, maybe it could and should be. As soon as we go through our learning steps, you’ll understand why. That means we have to get into our “traveling” mode, or, more accurately, pick up our traveling glasses. Wine glasses, you know.\r\n\r\nWe’re in France this week for one of their great grapes — Chardonnay. This variety is the white grape of the Burgundy region, where it makes some of the best and most expensive white wines in the world. Chardonnay is considered to be a fairly neutral grape, easily influenced by the exact type of soil it is grown in and whatever fermentation style and barrel treatments are used in its wine making. The whole mystique of white Burgundies reflects this. But, none of these are our wine for this week. Burgundy is not the region for our wine, either, but it will come back into our discussion in a bit.  So hang on.\r\n\r\nAn area called Ardèche (ar desh) is the growing spot for our Chardonnay.  This area is in south central France, named for the Ardèche River. Humans have lived here since at least the Upper Paleolithic Age.  The Ardèche River is the largest canyon in France, and there are caves all along it, in the cliffs that form the canyon, that are full of ancient drawings and relics of flint knives and arrowheads. This area is also called Vivarais, named for the coat-of-arms from Viviers which was the ancient capital city here of one of the Gaul tribes. The history of the area was tumultuous over the years until the early 10th century when economic stability saw the building of many Romanesque churches. The medieval county of Viviers, Vivarais, was part of the Kingdom of Arles that was formed in 933, by Rudolph II of Burgundy.  Rudolph III bequeathed the Kingdom to the Holy Roman Emperor in 1032, and, from this point on, the church played an important part in the development of the area. The French crown gained control of Viviers in 1229. In 1305, Phillip IV of France made the bishops of Vivarais accept the sovereignty of the Kings of France over their temporal domain. And, in 1308, the area was granted to France. For years, the conflict between Catholics and Protestants continued in the Vivarais. It was only after the French Revolution that the Protestants here were recognized as citizens. Economically, industrially and socially, the area has never quite found its peak. In 1861, the population was at its highest ever, 388,500.\r\n\r\nBut, geographically, the Viarais has one particular strength — the soil and climate that can grow good Chardonnay grapes. There are five natural regions.  The mountains to the west, where the Loire River has its source. The plateaus with green forested crests and milder weather with summer rains. Third, the Bas-Vivarais where the Ardèche River flows as far as the Rhône River. Here, the climate is warm and drier, almost a Mediterranean climate, and the soil is calcareous limestone. (Sounds like Chardonnay country to me!) Then, the plateau of the Coirons, with its extreme climate, including snow, and rich fertile soil for growing wheat, oats and potatoes, and raising goats and beef. And, finally, the valley of the Rhône.  And, yes, there are vineyards here, but we have to stay with our Ardèche wines, so the Rhône will have to wait for another visit.\r\n\r\nIn 1979, our producer for this week’s wine started growing Chardonnay vines in the clay and limestone-based soil of the Ardèche.  Domaine Louis Latour is one of the biggest and best producers of wines in Burgundy. (Told you we’d get back to Burgundy for a bit.) This is, and has always been, a family run company since it was founded in 1797. Currently, the seventh Louis Latour is its manager. But, there are over 200 years of Latour history as wine growers, all with integrity, tradition and innovation. Domaine Latour has the largest Grand Cru (the highest legal level for Burgundy wines, red and white) property in the Côte d’Or with more than 71 and a half acres. In total, they now own about 125 acres of vineyards. They are based in the town of Aloxe, at Chateau Grancey. Their winery was built here in 1834, the first building built in France with the intention of it being a winery. The winery is known for its great ingenuity — five levels which means gravity can be used to help in crushing the grapes gently and running the juice into its tanks. Latour wines are handled very carefully, with the climate and terroir specific to each growing site being evident in each wine. Their winemaker believes that 80 percent of a finished wine’s quality is the result of what is done in the vineyards.\r\n\r\nSo, Latour was the first Burgundy producer of their stature to go outside the official Burgundy area, into lesser ranked soil so the wines could not be called Burgundy. In fact, some of the original Chardonnay rootstock that the company planted in the Ardèche area was from their Grand Cru vineyards in Corton-Charlemagne. Because of the soil and climate in the Ardèche, Domaine Latour thought the area was well suited to grow high quality Chardonnay. When they harvest these grapes, only the ripest grapes are used.  (The Chardonnay wines that Latour made from Ardèche grapes were so successful, they subsequently went into the nearby Var area and did the same thing with Pinot Noir. Excellent wines, just not officially red Burgundies.)\r\n\r\nThere are two Latour Ardèche Chardonnays. Ardèche and Grande Ardèche. The latter is not our wine this week, but worth tasting. And, maybe one week it will be our wine. It is a bit more barrel aged, in barrels from Latour’s own cooperage, so a bit fuller bodied.\r\n\r\nThe <b>Latour Ardèche Chardonnay</b>, our wine, comes from vines that are an average of 25 years old. It is fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged for about 10 months, also in stainless steel. That makes it a no-oak Chardonnay. But, thanks to a complete, 100 percent malo-lactic fermentation (remember, this changes the wine’s acidity from crisper apple acid to softer milk acid) this Chardonnay is nice and smooth in our mouths. No zingy acidity like some no-oak Chards. Its nose has hints of white flowers and perfume, with apples, lemon zest and herbs. The flavors stretch out the aromas, with the smooth texture of this wine, into a long finish. Delicious!\r\n\r\nAnd, now for a piece of special news. The Latour Ardèche Chardonnay comes in a large, liter and a half size bottle. A double, literally.  Usually this large bottle costs us $19.99. But, not this week. For as long as it lasts, try some for $15.97!  Not your everyday Chardonnay? Not yet, anyhow.

ARTworks is located in Beaufort Town Center, 2127 Boundary St.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<b>BAA Membership Drive:</b> 1962 was the  Quadricentennial (400 years) of the landing of Jean Ribaut with a group of Huguenots on what is now Parris Island. A committee called the Prologue to Freedom was formed to celebrate this event during March of 1962 in Beaufort.  The group called out to artists to create oil paintings that would reflect this great event in our local history. The late Catherine Wolfe’s oil painting was a winning entry. It depicts the landing with numerous French crests surrounding the scene.  The original now hangs in Beaufort City Hall; 1,000 prints were made of the original painting and only 100 survive today. Mrs. Wolfe was a founder and past-president of Beaufort Art Association.  Now, 51 years later, Beaufort Art Association is offering these reproductions of Catherine Wolfe’s painting to the public during our 2013 membership drive.  Any new member will receive one of the few remaining prints in existence.

Approximately 17-20% of adults have OSA, or 15 million Americans, and 90% goes undiagnosed. OSA is reported to be more prevalent in middle-aged men (24%) compared with women (9%) in the United States between the ages of 30 and 60 years, but the true prevalence may be higher. These patients can also suffer from hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and obesity-metabolic syndrome.\r\n\r\nDaytime sleepiness is the most common complaint among patients with OSA. Patients may notice difficulty with attention, concentration, memory, judgment, erectile dysfunction and impaired performance of tasks requiring dexterity.\r\n\r\nNocturnal symptoms in OSA include loud snoring with brief gasps alternating with episodes of silence lasting from 20 to 30 seconds occurs frequently. Spouses report apnea episodes terminated by gasps, choking sounds, snorts, vocalizations, or brief awakenings. Restlessness manifested as tossing and turning, probably caused by increased respiratory effort related to upper airway obstruction, has been described in about half of the patients. Other symptoms can be sensation of choking interrupting sleep, esophageal reflux; dryness of the mouth and drooling.\r\n\r\nTreatment for symptomatic OSA syndromes is influenced by the severity of sleep apnea. CPAP therapy can be used for all categories of OSA and represents the first line of therapy for moderate to severe OSA. Compliance is the key to any OSA treatment. CPAP patients often complain of noise, partner intolerance, inconvenience, as well as : mask problems (leaking mask, mask rubbing, skin rash or abrasion, conjunctivitis); side effects (nasal congestion,  sinus discomfort, claustrophobia, difficulty exhaling, and incomplete resolution of symptoms (frequent awakening, persistent fatigue or sleepiness).\r\n\r\nFor mild forms of OSA, nonsurgical options include weight loss; avoidance of sleep deprivation, alcohol, nicotine, and sedatives; body positional therapy (pillows to avoid sleeping in the supine position); and Oral Dental Appliances.\r\n\r\nOral appliances, also called dental appliances or devices are useful for mild OSA and for patients with moderate or severe OSA who are unable or unwilling to tolerate CPAP and who have failed surgery or are not surgical candidates. Oral appliances work by increasing airway space, providing a stable anterior position of the mandible, and advancing the tongue or soft palate. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends dental devices for patients with mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea who are not appropriate candidates for CPAP or who have not been helped by it. (CPAP should be used for patients with severe sleep apnea whenever possible.)\r\n\r\n<i>Dr. Wallace can be reached at 843-524-7645.</i>\r\n<div><i> </i></div>', 'Tired of being tired?

(11616, 4, '2013-06-12 13:26:37', '2013-06-12 17:26:37', '<b>By Martha O’Regan</b>\r\n\r\nI recently read a profound explanation by a 6-year-old boy as to why dogs live shorter lives than humans. He said, “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life — like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right? Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.”\r\n\r\nSo, I guess as long as someone is still alive, there must be more to learn. But to learn more, we first have to be willing to learn and then we have to be teachable.\r\n\r\nRecognizing that every person and every experience we encounter is part of our growth and development is a huge first step in our willingness to learn.  Yes, even those folks and situations that rock our world or tweak our last nerve are our teachers. We all know folks who already know everything, or at least they proclaim they do.  These are the folks who seem bored when someone else is sharing their latest nugget of information garnered from a book they read or seminar they attended. Or, chomping at the bit to “one up” what others are sharing before the other person even has a chance to finish theirs. They are the ones who say “I know” to just about anything anyone around them says. I suppose many of us have likely fallen into one or more of these social pitfalls at some time in our lives but once observed in either ourselves or others’, created a willingness to learn a new way of sharing with others.  Our conscious awareness to how we share with others allows us to truly listen and learn from each person and situation we encounter in our lives.\r\n\r\nI believe we each have a unique curriculum that we came to earth school to learn and we continue to create circumstances in our lives to learn from until we finally get the lesson. Sometimes it takes that sledge hammer experience to really get it, and once we do, there is usually another one around the corner. Becoming aware of our individual curriculum allows us to see each person and encounter as part of that course, creating clarity, and sometimes confusion, as we navigate our day to day.  Some lessons are easier to grasp than others yet each one is a unique stepping stone in our evolution.  For instance, pain and illness create their own curriculum as we learn to listen to our body’s request for more oxygen, better nourishment and hydration, or to move with more grace and ease.\r\n\r\nI am reminded by a story that a friend shared about his mother’s transition. The day before she left her earthly body, she shared with her son that the previous evening she had an opportunity to spend time with “the Divine” and learned three things. One was that the will to live was the strongest of all human desires, another is that every thought is a silent prayer and every prayer is received by the Divine, and finally, but most importantly, it really is all about love. Although she expressed some regret that she spent so much time in the material world worrying about things that she couldn’t control, she was grateful to know she had loved deeply and had been loved by many, and to know that through it all, she was truly communicating her deepest thoughts, wishes and dreams to the One who mattered most.  This gave her the peace she needed to move on to her next adventure.  It seems to me that at this juncture, she must have learned all that she was supposed to and was free to go.\r\n\r\nSo, what is your curriculum?  What are you here in earthly school to become? Are you willing to learn and listen?  Are you teachable?  Pondering these questions moving forward will hopefully create a new awareness of each person or situation you encounter along with a curiosity about how it fits into the grand scheme of learning how to live the good life. So, here’s to loving others and being nice!  Live Well ... Have Fun!\r\n<div></div>', 'There is always more to learn', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'there-is-always-more-to-learn', '', '', '2013-06-12 13:26:37', '2013-06-12 17:26:37', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11616', 0, 'post', '', 0),

He set the bar high for me with his kindness and love and the sacrifices he made to ensure his family had all the things he didn’t have when he was growing up.\r\n\r\nFor more than 20 years, his commute to work was more than an hour each way from our home in the New Jersey suburbs to his office in New York City. But he never came home disgruntled or distant; we always ate dinner together as a family and after “Jeopardy,” (which he always knows the answers) he would help us with our homework.\r\n\r\nAt a time when many of my friends’ parents were going through divorces, my mom and dad’s relationship was solid and special. He always made her laugh and supported her choices. He was the strong, silent match to her social, outgoing personality, and for a long time I never thought I would have what they had. But by some miraculous Divine intervention, I managed to find a man who embodied many of the qualities I admire in my dad — a subtle sense of humor, intelligence, patience and loyalty — without being too much like him.\r\n\r\nI have been fortunate enough to watch my husband Daniel grow from an easy going reporter to a loving partner to a devoted Da-da to our 17-month-old toddler, Wolfe.\r\n\r\nIt’s hard to describe how supportive and involved Daniel has become in his son’s life. He takes the early shift and wakes up with Wolfe almost every morning — which is a big deal for someone who can sleep until 11. He lovingly makes Wolfe’s dinner on nights that I’m working, being careful to include a variety of healthy choices. And most recently, he is taking Wolfe to baby swim class (no easy task considering the little guy likes the water about as much as a cat). Daniel never complains about his duties, and even after a long day at work, and with grad school homework waiting, he always takes the time to read books to Wolfe before bed and to tuck him in at night.\r\n\r\n<b>*</b>\r\n\r\nAfter my mom died in 2010, my relationship with my dad changed, for the better. It took a long time for me to get past my own grief to realize how much my dad lost — his best friend and confidante — and that I might not agree with his way of doing things, but he’s doing the best he can. Although he misses my mom, he’s not alone because my grown sister still lives at home with her 10-year-old son. At 65, my dad hardly has the life of a retiree, and I have more respect for him because he takes care of their daily needs, and also helps my 88-year-old grandma, who lives in an independent living home in the same town.\r\n\r\nStill, with all that on his plate, he always makes time to talk to me whenever I call. His relationship with Wolfe will melt anyone’s heart; even though we live far away, we Facetime at least once a week and Wolfe always smiles and gets excited when he sees his Grandpa Tex.\r\n\r\nThis Father’s Day, I want to thank my dad for giving me so much and showing me what it means to put family first. And I want to thank my husband for all of his love and support and for reminding me daily that I couldn’t have asked for a better father for my children.

His parents, both educators, saw this as a great opportunity for Andalú to look at his own education as a self-driven process of discovery.\r\n\r\nAt NYSP, students choose a specific area of study such as engineering, forensic science, or medicine. In addition to these Discovery Strands, all students participate in a Leadership Strand. Throughout the program, young scholars engage in challenging coursework, gain a greater sense of independence, and experience a renaissance of learning. The program culminates with student-created projects tying leadership skills to the discoveries made in their specific area of study. Activities such as solving a “whodunit” activity through work in a model forensics lab is just one of the highlights of the innovative curriculum. Simulation activities and role-play encourage scholars to develop their leadership skills, while introducing them to the concepts of team-building, problem-solving, public speaking and goal-setting.\r\n\r\n“NYSP taps into the natural curiosity that students at this young age already have,” said Dr. Marguerite C. Regan, Dean of Academic Affairs for the Program. NYSP is created by highly successful practitioners in the field of elementary education who boast more than 25 years of successful education experience.\r\n\r\nFor additional information, visit www.nationalyoungscholars.org.\r\n<div></div>', 'Local AMES Academy student contributes to the National Young Scholars Program', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'local-ames-academy-student-contributes-to-the-national-young-scholars-program', '', '', '2013-06-12 13:48:10', '2013-06-12 17:48:10', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11641', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(11724, 4, '2013-06-19 21:58:33', '2013-06-20 01:58:33', 'By Tracie Korol\r\n\r\nWhen early wolf-derivatives first joined us around the fire back in the Way Back, they were eating the same foods we were. And the other way around. But as we moved indoors and our methods of consumption became more evolved, so did that of our dogs.\r\n\r\nDuring the Middle Ages both man and dog ate via “trencher feeding.” As only the very rich had table service and cutlery, common man would eat his meals from a trencher. A trencher was a long flat loaf of bread. When finished with a meal, he would toss the trencher and any remaining bones to the dogs. Not a bad deal for the dog.\r\n\r\nDogs generally ate whatever food was available in their environment. For farm dogs, this could include raw meat scraps, raw milk, eggs and food found scavenging. City dogs probably depended on scraps from the owners’ table, vermin, and offal and cheap cuts of raw meat from the butcher. Only those dogs owned by the very rich or royalty had meals specially prepared for them.\r\n\r\nThe first processed dog food was the brainchild of an Ohio electrician named James Spratt.  In 1860, while in London selling his lightning rods, Mr. Spratt noticed a pack of stray dogs swarming the London docks eating the discarded, moldy hard tack thrown off the ships by sailors. Spratt went home and concocted a biscuit of wheat, beetroot, vegetables and beef blood. The name of this new product was called Spratt’s Patent Meat Fibrine Dog Cakes. His biscuits came in a tin decorated with pictures of terriers, and sported the legend “My Faithful Friend’s Own Biscuit Box”, the first appearance of marketing in the pet food world.\r\n\r\nIn 1907, F.H. Bennett introduced “Milk Bone” dog biscuits as a “complete food.” Mr. Spratt’s Patent Fibrine Dog Cakes and Milk Bone biscuits remained the big guns in the dog food game until the 1920’s.  As automobile power soon replaced horsepower, Ken-L-Ration introduced canned horsemeat as dog food. World War I cramped Ken-L-Ration’s canned horsemeat business, not because horses were need on the battlefield but because of the shortage of tin for the cans.\r\n\r\nDry food was introduced in 1946.  In the post-war boom, mill operators and grain dealers found a good source for their by-products — the stuff on the floor and the stuff they couldn’t otherwise sell — in the dog food industry. Slaughterhouses found they were able to sell non-human grade, diseased meats, unusable parts, and meat by-products to pet food manufacturers. This created a market for products that previously been garbage. Since many of these meat sources were non-human grade, the practice became common to mix these with the grains and cook them together for many hours or days to kill vermin and bacteria. The final mix was then formed into pellets that were easily bagged for convenience of feeding.\r\n\r\nIn 1957, Purina perfected the extrusion method of manufacture. The extrusion process combined and cooked the ingredients together in a liquid form, and then mechanically pushed it through an extruder that expanded the piece of dog food with air, and then baked them again. These dog food pieces were much larger and lighter than the pellets, giving an appearance of ‘more for your money’.  Most of us have little memory of dog food before Purina Dog “Chow”.\r\n\r\nAn active campaign was developed in 1964 through the “Pet Food Institute”, the organization representing pet food manufacturers, to inform the public of the dangers of table food scraps, and the importance of feeding processed dog food. This was accomplished through press releases to 1,000 newspapers, articles in 16 magazines, including <i>Redbook</i> and <i>Good Housekeeping </i>and airing this information on 91 radio stations. Many of us were indoctrinated in our childhoods to the idea that “packaged is better.”\r\n\r\nContinuing marketing strategies included using celebrities in television commercials, making dog foods that produced their own ‘gravy’ when water is added, making dog kibble into various shapes, and using dyes in the dog food so it would look ‘natural’ and pleasing to a dog owner’s eyes. Pet food ads were appearing regularly in the media and designs were developed more to attract the owner’s idea of a tasty and visually attractive meal than for the dogs’ health. Pet food sales moved from the feed stores to the grocery stores, with bright labels and appealing pictures. The marketing strategies were paying off, and soon pet food sales were surpassing the amount of money spent on baby food. Interestingly, at the same time, on the human food front, colorful and sugary cereals for children were also making inroads.\r\n\r\nNext time: From then until now.\r\n<div></div>', 'How did we get there?

(11731, 4, '2013-06-19 22:01:36', '2013-06-20 02:01:36', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nYep, Malvar-lous! And don’t go guessing that I might be wine tasting while I’m wine writing. How could anyone think that a word like that meant there was any alcohol involved? And, certainly not with me!  But, Malvar-lous it is. For our wine this week, anyhow. And, just imagine what my good old spell checker is doing too! I’ll probably have to give him a glass or two before this is all finished. Really! That’s just too much.\r\n\r\nBut this nice new wine is from Spain and, really, it is Malvar-lous. (I figure I have to keep using that word  so you will remember the name more easily.) Let’s learn about Spanish wines, and a new grape variety.\r\n\r\nOur trip this week takes us to a Spanish region that we have not visited before — the DO (Denominación de Origen) known as Vinos de Madrid, declared in 1990. Despite all the things that Madrid is known for, being a great wine region is not one of them. But, for us, this is a good thing.  Not being known as a great wine region can also mean not expensive wines. Yay! This area is located as close to the center of the country as you can get. It covers 54 municipalities and has three sub-zones (Arganda, Navalcarnero, and San Martin) that each make different types of wines.\r\n\r\nHistorically, ancient Romans probably introduced grape growing and winemaking here, just like they did in the rest of the Iberian peninsula.  I say probably because the documented evidence of wine in the Madrid area comes from the 13th century, much later than most other areas’ first records of it. The record, though, is a legal document regarding a dispute between some monks and a local feudal lord over the ownership of a vineyard.  There are about 650 acres of vines in the DO, and 90 percent of them are grown organically. For some, in the wine business and not, this DO is quickly becoming a little gem of a region — good wines at lower than normal costs.\r\n\r\nGoing back to the three sub-zones, quickly, the Arganda makes red wines out of Tempranillo with a few others and white wines from Airén and Malvar and some others. This is the largest sub-zone and has about 50 percent of the DO’s vineyards. It also has 26 of the municipalities. Its soil is clay and lime over a granite subsoil. Of the three sub-zones, this one gets the least rainfall. The Navalcarnero makes red wines from Garnacha (Spanish for Grenache) and others and white wine from Airén and others. (Airén is a popular white variety in Spain, we just don’t see much of it.) This area has only 15 percent of the total vines in the DO, and its soil is rich and dark but low in nutrients. The third sub-zone, San Martin, also grows Garnacha for red wines and Albilo for whites. There are 35 percent of the vines here and they get the most rainfall because of their location in the mountains. All of this is part of what makes our wine what it is, but, no, there will not be a test next week.\r\n\r\nNow, I have to wonder if we picked up on the name of our grape in any of those sub-zones. If we did, Malvar-lous!  It is the white variety Malvar. An obscure one for sure. It is grown mostly in the Vinos de Madrid DO, with nearly 6,200 acres planted by the end of the 20th century. Some research says that Malvar is indigenous to this area. The majority of its vines are at higher altitudes, up to 2,000 feet, because it seems to grow better there. Better acids and more flavors do make for better wines.\r\n\r\nThe wines from Malvar tend to be medium bodied, not the weight of Chardonnay and not as light as Pinot Grigio. The grapes require a relatively long growing season, so they are better suited to Mediterranean climates. These wines tend to have full aromatics and good acidity.\r\n\r\nOur wine, finally, is <b>Zestos Malvar</b>. The name “zestos” means basket in English. When you try this wine, you will see that the label is a drawing of vineyard workers, years ago, carrying harvested grapes in large baskets on their backs, taking them to a winery. The grapes for this Malvar wine are organically grown, although you won’t find that tidbit on the label, and their vines are, on average, 35 years old. (They were planted in 1974.) The grapes are macerated for 12 hours  and, then, fermented at a cool 50 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 days, half in stainless steel and half in cement tanks. The stainless steel lets the wine retain the stone fruit flavors of the grape, and doesn’t add any others, and the cement tanks allow for the softest process of micro-oxygenation — fancy words for “keep the acidity fresher.”\r\n\r\nThe harvest of the current vintage took place during the first week in October, two weeks earlier than normal, but late by European standards. This wine has peach, nectarine and orange scents. Its flavors include, beyond the peach and nectarine, lemon zest, blanched almonds and lychée nuts. It is smooth and broad textured in your mouth, with a great acidity that keeps you sipping and sipping.\r\n\r\nAnd Zestos Malvar is great with food, too. A tasting at the Zestos winery included a salad with watermelon, avocado, cucumber and almonds, mixed with herbs and spices.  And, then, grilled chicken breasts that were marinated in lemon juice, garlic, parsley and pimentos.  With fried potatoes. Sounds to me like we need to get our shopping baskets (zestos) and get ready for dinner.\r\n\r\nJust in case you have one red wine die-hard drinker at your dinner, go ahead and try the <b>Zestos Garnacha</b>. It’s 100 percent Garnacha from vines that are 40 to 50 years old. And, while the Malvar is from the Arganda sub-zone of the Vinos de Madrid DO, the red wine grapes are from the San Martin sub-zone. This wine is juicy in your mouth with dark red fruit flavors. An easy drinking red, the Zestos Garnacha will also pair well with pizza, quesadillas, sausages, and, my absolute favorite, Machego cheese. Malvar-lous!\r\n\r\nOf these two wines, only 1,500 cases of Malvar are made each year, and 30,000 of the Garnacha. Obviously, we have to, quickly, try them. The Malvar especially. Need to be sure they send enough of those cases to South Carolina. And, as I mentioned earlier, it can be done fairly easily because they are so well priced. With both of them at $8.99 a bottle, we can buy an extra bottle so we don’t run out. Or so we can drink it.  Or give the spell checker his glass. Absolutely Malvar-lous wines!  Enjoy.', 'A Spanish wine that’s simply ‘Malvar-lous’', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'a-spanish-wine-thats-simply-malvar-lous', '', '', '2013-06-19 22:01:36', '2013-06-20 02:01:36', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=11731', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Buck also chose his usual: the Carteret Chicken Sandwich. I tried something new in the Lobeco Chicken Salad — the green beans, grilled chicken and chow-chow drizzled with homemade vinaigrette made for a fabulous dish unlike anything I’ve ever tasted.\r\n\r\nOf course, no meal would be complete without dessert, and we chose Fran’s homemade banana pudding, which we all agreed was a must-have.

The project will commence with a “Kick-off Cookout” block party at the David Schein Store, 702 Bladen Street, Thursday, June 27, 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. The public is invited.\r\n\r\nThe 3,200-square-foot building, which housed Coastal Contractors until 2006, will be stabilized by the Foundation and marketed for sale. The empty block in which it stands has been targeted by the City of Beaufort for commercial development. The block is part of the primarily residential Midtown Square development owned by Steve Tully and John Trask III who have partnered with HBF to promote the project.\r\n\r\nBladen Street was the principal business street west of downtown, in the heart of “Ward Six,” a predominantly African-American area. The three blocks of Bladen from Bay Street to Duke Street were part of Beaufort’s original town plan in 1711, according to research by former HBF executive director Evan Thompson.\r\n\r\nIn 1801, the Trustees of Beaufort College took ownership of vacant lots in Beaufort including this one. Although lots sold in 1801, the area remained undeveloped until after the Civil War and nothing was built at 702 Bladen until David Schein built his store in 1912.\r\n\r\nThe building will be restored to its two-story, gable fronted form with wood siding and possibly a metal roof, as funding allows. Non-structural walls, dropped ceilings and tiled floors will be removed to expose the original floor plan, ceiling heights and wooden floors. Windows and entrances that were moved or covered in the past will be restored, including the original storefront entry.\r\n\r\nHBF’s Preservation Committee stepped up with a preservation plan when it was learned that the building was to be demolished. HBF Board chairman Conway Ivy said the Foundation is excited to “demonstrate with a high visibility project that preservation can take a building that many view as having no value and making it a positive contributing factor in the neighborhood.”\r\n\r\nSome in city government have criticized HBF for not supporting the Civic Master Plan’s goal of redevelopment of our neighborhoods, said HBF executive director Maxine Lutz. “This project and a second stabilization project on Duke Street that is expected to begin this summer illustrate that we are willing to work to find the resources to implement the city’s goals.”\r\n\r\nThe “Kick-off Cookout” is open to the public.

Exercises will demystify meter, structure and phrasing, and provide practical tools for creating lucid, dynamic performances that make full use of Shakespeare’s living language.\r\n\r\n<b>July 20: Physicalizing Shakespeare: </b>Performing Shakespeare requires a responsive but relaxed physical instrument. This workshop explores the relationship between body and text through exercises that unlock creativity and emotional accessibility. In addition, connections between the actor’s 360-degree body and the physical space are discovered through Shakespearean speeches and scenes.\r\n\r\n<b>July 27: Shakespeare in Context:</b> Status, alliance, and hierarchy are central concerns for many of Shakespeare’s characters. Using hands-on exercises, we will unlock the social constructs that influenced Shakespeare’s depiction of character and understand how awareness of context enriches and deepens performance.\r\n\r\nAll the workshops are highly active and experiential. Workshop participants should wear comfortable clothing that allows for full range of unrestricted movement. Sneakers or bare feet are encouraged.
