It is also my anchorage, my port of call.” With those words and all that followed, Sue dreamed of living in the South and more specifically, Pat Conroy’s Lowcountry. It would be several decades before that would be possible but when the opportunity arose, she and her husband packed their belongings and moved from the mountains of New Hampshire to the beautiful Lowcountry. It’s a decision that neither has regretted.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19483\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/SueMcCarthy_old-barn.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19483\" alt=\"Sue McCarthy\'s &quot;Old Barn&quot;\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/SueMcCarthy_old-barn-300x298.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"298\" /></a> Sue McCarthy\'s \"Old Barn\"[/caption]\r\n\r\nSue’s journey into art began with another impulsive act.  In the early 1970’s she and her husband purchased an old historic inn located in one of New Hampshire’s loveliest villages.  Surrounded by the White Mountains and plentiful lakes, it was an idyllic place to raise their sons.  A chance meeting with a local artist Barbara “Willey” Fromm encouraged Sue to start a lifetime of painting.\r\n\r\nGrowing up near Chadd’s Ford, Pennsylvania, where Andrew Wyeth spent part of each year, she saw the same hills, trees and buildings that he saw and painted. Sue noticed that he used shadows but very little sunshine.  His light was piercing and showed every flaw, irregularity and nuance. This was a major influence as she began to paint.  Sue spent the next ten years painting oils, mentored by Willey Fromm and truly became an artist. She later studied with another well-known New England artist, Ernie Brown, who introduced her to the fine art of acrylics.  This created a cooler, more subdued palette with more realism.  Painting was put on the back burner for many years, as life pulled her in other directions.  It wasn’t until she moved to Beaufort that she resumed her painting.\r\n\r\nTwo important events happened that enabled Sue to explore her love of putting brush to canvas again.  First, she joined Beaufort Art Association which encouraged her to begin painting, exhibiting and be successful as an artist.  Her second step was when she obtained studio space at Atelier on Bay.  This provided her with room to paint as well as display more of her work, while receiving inspiration from those who also had studios around her.\r\n\r\nOnce Sue began painting in the Lowcountry, she noticed that the southern light appeared very different from light in Northern New England.  The light here held a golden glow, probably caused in part by humidity, warmer temperatures and the arc of the sun.  She realized that her palette needed to be warmer.  In New Hampshire the light was cooler and clearer, sometimes harsh, but always piercing. Both are unique but lead the artist in different directions. In her compositions, the mountains of New Hampshire were dominant, making the sky less important. Here, it is all about the sky.\r\n\r\nSue’s exhibit will run from October 26 through December 6. Her darker, more contemplative works will be displayed along with her expansive sky paintings, landscapes, still lifes, and animals that have inspired her since moving to Beaufort.\r\n\r\nA featured artist reception for Sue McCarthy will take place at Beaufort Art Association, 913 Bay Street, Beaufort, on Friday, October 31 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The public is invited to attend.\r\n<div></div>', 'The Art of Sue McCarthy shines at BAA', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'the-art-of-sue-mccarthy-shines-at-baa', '', '', '2014-10-23 11:52:41', '2014-10-23 15:52:41', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19482', 0, 'post', '', 0),

In addition to the two vocalists, the show also features Rick Radcliff on piano and Randall Reese on saxophone, flute and clarinet.  According to lead vocalist Herron, “Mercer was a master with lyrics and his poetic, rhythmic, story-telling words cover an amazing span of emotions that are as relevant today as when he wrote them.”\r\n\r\nIn addition to music, the evening will also include a short film of Mercer performing his songs with fellow entertainment giants like Nat King Cole and Mel Torme, as well as commentary by Mercer authority, David Oppenheim, who will speak about Mercer’s life and answer questions from the audience.  Of particular interest to many will be Mercer’s background and early life in Savannah. Johnny Mercer was descended from a prestigious Savannah family, stretching back to colonial times. He was a choirboy at Christ Church and a student at the Chatham Academy. As the son of a wealthy family, he was exposed to all of the art and culture that the city offered, from African-American spirituals, to traveling musicals, cinema, and popular music of the Jazz Age. Mercer maintained a close relationship with his mother throughout his life and often cited Savannah and his time spent there as a major influence on his music and lyrics.\r\n\r\nThe performance will take place at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, October 24 at ARTworks, 2127 Boundary Street, Beaufort, in the Beaufort Town Center shopping plaza. Tickets are $20 each and can be purchased online at www.beaufortcountyarts.com or by calling 843-379-2787.\r\n<div></div>', 'ARTworks celebrates the life of Johnny Mercer', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'artworks-celebrates-the-life-of-johnny-mercer', '', '', '2014-10-23 12:10:11', '2014-10-23 16:10:11', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19491', 0, 'post', '', 0),

In the history of Jazz music there is only one band leader that has the distinction of having his orchestra still performing sold out concerts all over the world with members personally chosen by him, for nearly 30 years after his death.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19495\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/CBO-caption-band-live-horizontal.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19495\" alt=\"The Count Basie Orchestra performing at the Benaroya Hall in Seattle, Washington, on March 31, 2012.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/CBO-caption-band-live-horizontal-300x231.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"231\" /></a> The Count Basie Orchestra performing at the Benaroya Hall in Seattle, Washington, on March 31, 2012.[/caption]\r\n\r\nThe basic fundamentals of Basie’s orchestra were and still are foot stomping 4/4 swing, an unparalleled use of dynamic contrasts, shouting the blues at any tempo, and danceable.  The Count Basie Orchestra can be viewed between 1935 and 1955 as the Old Testament and New Testament bands. The Old Testament band’s style was a combination of spontaneously developed riff-driven, or “head” arrangements, full of the blues and relaxed, but intense swing that showcased some of the greatest names in Jazz history in Lester Young, Hershel Evans, Harry Edison, Buck Clayton, Dicky Wells, Jo Jones, Freddie Green and Jimmy Rushing among others. The New Testament Count Basie Orchestra was formed circa 1952 after Basie’s brief hiatus from the full orchestra as he was working with a small group of six to seven pieces during the industry imposed recording ban that began in 1948. With the April in Paris recording in 1955, the orchestra began to set standards of musical achievement that have been emulated by every jazz orchestra since that time.\r\n\r\nThe orchestra has won every respected jazz poll in the world at least once, won 18 Grammy Awards, performed for Kings, Queens and other world royalty, appeared in several movies, television shows, at every major jazz festival and concert hall in the world.\r\n\r\nScotty Barnhart was appointed as the director of The Legendary Count Basie Orchestra in 2013 following the leadership of Thad Jones, Frank Foster, Grover Mitchell, Bill Hughes, and Dennis Mackrel. Current members include musicians hired by Basie himself: Carmen Bradford (1983), Clarence Banks (1984), as well as Mike Williams (1987), Doug Miller (1989), and members who have joined in the last 15 years: David Keim, Alvin Walker, Will Matthews, Marshall McDonald, Doug Lawrence, Cleave Guyton.\r\n\r\nAdmission to this performance requires a ticket purchase. The cost to attend: $40 Adults; $35 members. Detailed information regarding admission and other programs at the center can be found at www.uscbcenterforthearts.com.

But it wasn’t until he was in 9th grade that he first though of becoming a teacher.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19517\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Profile-Stephen-Schools.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19517\" alt=\"Stephen Schools and his wife, Christy.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Profile-Stephen-Schools-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a> Stephen Schools and his wife, Christy.[/caption]\r\n\r\n“I realized one day that my math teacher, who was always animated and often entertaining, really seemed to enjoy what he was doing,” Stephen says.\r\n\r\nA Lowcountry native, Stephen was born and raised and spent the first 40 years of his life in Charleston. He has a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics with a minor in Education from the University of North Carolina, a master’s degree in Mathematics Teaching from The Citadel in Charleston, and a Master’s of Education in Private School Leadership from Columbia University in New York.\r\n\r\nStephen taught math for 19 years and then stepped into a combined administration/teaching role.  He was Head of Upper School at the The Boys’ Latin School of Maryland in Baltimore from 2009-2013 and most recently was the Head of Upper School at Augusta Prep in Augusta, Georgia, from 2013-2014. He also used to coach “a little bit” of basketball and was a track and field coach during his teaching years.\r\n\r\nHappy to be back home in the Lowcountry, Stephen is responsible for the day to day operations at Beaufort Academy.  He credits a wonderful faculty and staff who help make his job easier to accomplish.\r\n\r\n“I am grateful to be a part of this terrific school community,” says Stephen. “Everyone here at Beaufort Academy and in the Beaufort area has been wonderfully nice and welcoming.  I am lucky to work with the great people at Beaufort Academy and lucky to be here in Beaufort.”\r\n\r\nStephen says his primary goal as headmaster at Beaufort Academy is to provide students with the best possible education and he feels that in a small independent setting much can be accomplished.\r\n\r\n“We try to show our students that we truly care about them and that we want to help them make good decisions and be good citizens as they prepare for college and for life.”\r\n\r\nWorking with students for as long as he has, Stephen knows there is the potential for a surprise every day.\r\n\r\n“You never know what to expect,” Stephen says. “We recently had our Golden Gala celebrating the 50th year for the school.  During the program, a video was played of our students answering a few questions including, ‘What do you want to be when you grow up?’  We had everything from a kindergartner who wants to be a paleontologist to an upper school student who jokingly replied, ‘I want to be a corporate fat cat.’  The point is that you never know what you may hear a student say on any given day, and that is what makes this work fun.  The students are great to work with and can always put a smile on your face.”\r\n\r\nStephen and his wife Christy are parents of Sam and Caroline who are in the first and second grades at Beaufort Academy. And if running a school and parenting wasn’t enough, Stephen recently became of member of Beaufort Rotary.\r\n\r\nAs Stephen looks to the future with Beaufort Academy, he says he would love to see the school grow in the coming years.\r\n\r\n“Beaufort is great place to live with many hidden gems. I believe that Beaufort Academy is one of these gems. I hope that we will be able to expand our offerings and attract more students into our school community in the years ahead.”\r\n\r\nBeaufort Academy is located at 240 Sams Point Road on Lady’s Island.

Although contributions are still being tallied, the event has already raised over $55,000 for the Beaufort Memorial Keyserling Cancer Center — a cause that is near and dear to the community’s heart.\r\n\r\n“Each year we are reminded just how special and generous the people are that live on Fripp Island,” said event co-founder Bev Fineis.\r\n\r\nCo-founder Chris Assaf remembers when a friend on Fripp was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005.  She and several others took turns driving their neighbor to daily radiation treatments in Savannah.  And as they drove down Ribaut Road, her friend pointed wistfully to the Keyserling Cancer Center in Port Royal — under construction at the time — and said, “If they were open now, I could go there.”\r\n\r\nThat’s when Assaf realized what a difference the Keyserling Cancer Center would make in the lives of people who live in this community. It’s hard enough to fight cancer without a three-hour daily commute for treatment.\r\n\r\nAt the same time, the Fripp Island Women’s Golf Association was holding their annual charity golf tournament.  As that event grew in scale, Assaf and Fineis proposed changing the name to FRIPP FOR A CURE and designating the Keyserling Cancer Center as the beneficiary.\r\n\r\nAnd what a difference that has made. In the last five years, FRIPP FOR A CURE has raised nearly $200,000 for the Keyserling Cancer Center.  These donations have helped continue the Beaufort Memorial Hospital\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19501\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/IMG_3280.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19501\" alt=\"Rich Assaf and Rick Toomey with 2014 co-chairperson Diane McGarry.\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/IMG_3280-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" /></a> Rich Assaf and Rick Toomey with 2014 co-chairperson Diane McGarry.[/caption]\r\n\r\nFoundation’s tradition of underwriting at least half of all building, equipment and enhancements to the eight-year-old facility.\r\n\r\n“Fripp for a Cure has jump-started the accumulation of funds we will need to keep the Foundation’s half of the bargain,” said BMH Foundation Executive Director Alice Moss, noting that the need for significant equipment replacement and expansion are inevitable in the not-too-distant future.\r\n\r\n“We are in awe of the passion and the effort put forth by our Fripp Island friends to make such a significant impact,” said Moss. “Their efforts will help Beaufort Memorial to continue to use the very latest technologies and provide the very best care for our cancer patients.”\r\n<div></div>', 'Fripp for a Cure features golf, Glover and goodwill', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'fripp-for-a-cure-features-golf-glover-and-goodwill', '', '', '2014-10-23 12:22:36', '2014-10-23 16:22:36', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19499', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(19543, 4, '2014-10-30 02:33:13', '2014-10-30 06:33:13', '<b>By Tracie Korol</b>\r\n\r\nI recently took part in the National Canine Health Symposium that featured the best and brightest in the world of integrative veterinary medicine — vets, nutritionists and behaviorists. The keynote address was by pet food blogger and editor-at-large of <i>Dogs Naturally</i> magazine, Rodney Habib. The topic? How marketing hype is killing our pets.\r\n\r\nHaving owned a marketing and design firm in the Midwest for the first 22 years of my professional life, I know first-hand that what you see, hear and read, when it comes to what you want to purchase, is not necessarily the truth. Rodney was telling a story I understand all too well.\r\n\r\nA trip down the pet food aisle these days will boggle the mind with all the wonderful claims made by manufacturers for their particular products. But what’s the truth behind all this marvelous hype? You might be very surprised.\r\n\r\n<b>Niche claims. </b>Today, if you have tiny dog, a canine athlete, a fat dog, or a pet with a tender tummy or itchy feet, you can find a food “designed” just for your pet’s personal needs. Niche marketing arrived in a big way in the pet food industry when the wonders of a “science” diet began to appear in all brands. Humans like to feel special, and a product with specific appeal is bound to sell better than a general product called “dog food.”  But the reality is that there are only two nutritional standards against which all pet foods are measured — adult and growth/gestation/lactation.  Everything else is marketing.\r\n\r\n<b>“Natural” or “Organic” claims. </b>The definition of “natural” adopted by AAFCO (Association Of American Feed Control Officials) is very broad, and allows for artificially processed ingredients that most of us would consider very unnatural. The term “organic,” on the other hand, has a very strict legal definition. However, some companies are adept at evading the intent of these rules. If 10% of the very last product on the ingredient list happens to be organic, then legally it’s okay to print that on the bag even when everything else is chemical-laden, GMO fright food. Also, the name of the company or product may be intentionally misleading. For instance, some companies use terms like “Nature” or “Natural” or linguistic derivatives like “Naturo” in the brand name, whether or not their products fit the definition of what is truly natural.\r\n\r\n<b>Ingredient quality claims. </b>A lot of pet foods claim they contain “human grade” ingredients. This is a completely meaningless term — which is why the pet food companies get away with using it. The same applies to “USDA inspected” or similar phrases. The implication is that the food is made using ingredients that are passed by the USDA for human consumption, but there are many ways around this. For instance, a facility might be USDA-inspected during the day, but the pet food is made at night after the inspector goes home. The use of such terms should be viewed as a “Hype Alert.”\r\n\r\n<b>“Meat is the first ingredient” claim.</b> A claim that a named meat (chicken, lamb, etc.) is the #1 ingredient is generally seen for dry food. Ingredients are listed on the label by weight, and raw chicken weighs a lot since it contains a lot of water. If you look further down the list, you’re likely to see ingredients such as chicken or poultry by-product meal, meat-and-bone meal, corn gluten meal, soybean meal, or other high-protein meal. Meals have had the fat and water removed, and basically consist of a dry, lightweight protein powder. It doesn’t take much raw chicken to weigh more than a great big pile of this powder, so in reality the food is based on the protein meal, with very little “chicken.” This has become a very popular marketing gimmick. Since just about everybody is now using it, any meaning it may have had is so watered-down that you may just as well ignore it.\r\n\r\n<b>Special ingredient claims.</b> Many high-end pet foods today rely on the marketing appeal of people-food ingredients such as fruits, herbs, and vegetables. However, the amounts of these items actually present in the food are miniscule because real fruits, herbs and vegetables are expensive. The items that make it into the bag are usually scraps and rejects from processors of human foods — certainly not the whole, fresh ingredients they want you to imagine. Such ingredients don’t provide a significant health benefit and are really a marketing gimmick. You’d be much better served chucking a hunk of broccoli than purchasing kibble that has colorful pictures of vegetables on the bag.  Every dog knows the orange triangles in his kibble aren’t carrots, but owners are not that smart.\r\n\r\nPet food marketing and advertising has become extremely sophisticated recently. It’s important to know what is hype and what is real, so you can make informed decisions about what to feed your pets.\r\n<div></div>', 'Marketing tricks that will cost you, and your dog ', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'marketing-tricks-that-will-cost-you-and-your-dog-2', '', '', '2014-10-30 02:33:13', '2014-10-30 06:33:13', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19543', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(19550, 4, '2014-10-30 02:39:39', '2014-10-30 06:39:39', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nI just love the phrase “Turkey Wine.”  Many times it is misunderstood. Not by me, of course, but by those who might hear me call a wine a “Turkey Wine.”  “Turkey Wine” does not refer to a wine from Turkey, the country. It refers to any wine that might go well with turkey. The stuffed bird we over-feed  ourselves with for Thanksgiving and other holidays. And, in addition to just the stuffed bird, it refers to a wine that will go with all the other piles of food and flavors we have on our plates with the bird.  Over the years, we’ve tried all kinds of wines. Reds. Whites. Bubbles. Some of us have our favorites and use them every year. Some of us change it up, depending on who we’re eating with, what we feel like one year as opposed to previous years, budgets (or lack of such), and new wines that we’ve learned about and managed to remember and that seem just right for this particular meal. Today, we get one of these new wines. And, get this, we don’t have to remember it for too awfully long. Turkey Day is closer than we need it to be.\r\n\r\nOur journey this week is to Argentina. I don’t remember for sure, but we may not have done this week’s region of Argentina ever before. Or this week’s grape variety. If we have, it’s been a long time. Long, long time. And we definitely have to fix that!  So, our region is Salta. Way up in the northwestern part of the country. Salta is the name of a province, in the Lerma Valley, and the name of the capital city of the province.  It is situated at almost thirty-eight hundred feet above sea level.  Right on the edge of the Andes Mountains. (This high elevation has a lot to do with their wines, which we’ll get to soon enough.) Of all Argentine cities, the colonial Spanish architecture of Salta is the best preserved.  A good thing for them because it attracts many tourists, and their money, to the area. Salta was founded in 1582, by a Spanish conquistador, Hernando de Lerma, as an outpost between Lima and Buenos Aires. For years, it was controlled by the military, and, after the war of independence, it was in disarray and bankrupt. It wasn’t until the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries that things started to get better in Salta. Italian, Spanish and Arab immigrants came into the area and trade and agriculture were revived. Today, this mix of immigrants and native Indians give Salta a unique cultural flavor.\r\n\r\nMoving on to our grape variety for this week - Torrontés. This is a white variety that produces fresh and aromatic wines with moderate acidity, a smooth texture and a juicy mouth-feel. It has distinct aromas of peach and apricots. Technically there are three variations of Torrontés grown in Argentina. Torrontés Riojano is the most common. It is the most aromatic of the three, with aromas that remind you of Muscat and Gewurztraminer. (Do we all remember how Gewurztraminer is also a good “Turkey Wine?”) This is the most grown variation of Torrontés grown in Argentina. Torrontés Sanjuanino and Torrontés Mendocino are the other two versions of this grape. There are almost thirty-five thousand acres of Torrontés planted in the country. Plantings at high altitudes, over fifty-five hundred feet above sea level, in locations like the Calchaquîes Valley in Salta, have met with great success. That’s vineyards that are a mile up there. Definitely some of the very highest vineyards in the world.\r\n\r\nTorrontés vines are very productive and account for about twenty percent of all Argentine white wines. And, the acreage of planted Torrontés is continually increasing. That means more and more of these wines are available all the time. In 2004, just under thirty thousand cases were imported into the United States. In 2010, however, that number was up to more than two hundred thirty thousand cases. By contrast, also in 2010, over three million cases of Argentine Malbec were imported into the United States. So, Torrontés is growing, but has a long way to go. Research into the origins of Torrontés show it is a cross between a Mission variety, Criolla Chica, and Muscat of Alexandria. This connection to Mission grapes means that Argentine Torrontés grapes are not related to Spanish Torrontés, despite their names being the same. Why?  Because Mission grapes are indigenous to the Americas. And have not traveled anywhere else. There is even a red grape that uses the Torrontés name. Torrontés wines, our white wines, can range in style from light and fresh to heady and unctuous with heavy perfuminess.  They can be spicy, slippery in texture, full of white flower aromas.\r\n\r\nOur Torrontés comes from the Michel Torino Winery, located in Cafayate (kah-fah-cha-ta).  Cafayate is a town located in the Calchaquíes Valley in Salta. Prime Torrontés country. The town itself is a big tourist center, partly for its wines and partly for its history and beautiful mountains. The Cafayates were an Indian tribe that lived in the valley before the Spanish Conquistadores. There are many versions of what the name Cafayate means — “box of water,” “great lake,” “great chief,” “ wealthy people,” or “grave of sorrows.”  All we need to really know is their wines. They are considered to be the best from Salta province and from the Calchaquíes Valley. And there Michel Torino owns more than fifteen hundred acres.\r\n\r\nTwo brothers founded the winery in 1892. Salvador and David. It is now the most important winery in the region. They practice “Zero Farming,” which means their commitment to the environment is as important as their wines. All their grapes are sustainably grown and hand harvested. Their organic cultivation is actually helped by the extremely high elevation of their vineyards. Hot days and cool nights, the up and down fluctuating temperatures, making more complex flavors in the their grapes. And not a lot of bugs live that high up, or a lot of birds who would eat the bugs, and grapes. The wines are made at cool temperatures, most of the aging is done in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks, and they are meant to be drunk young. Our wine is the Michel Torino Cuma Torrontés. Cuma is their most organic tier of wines. It is a bright greenish yellow color. And smells like rose petals. Beautiful! (You know, in aromatherapy and such, rose is a very relaxing scent.) With bits of jasmine and orange zest. This Torrontés is fresh, with a crisp acidity and lots of peach and apricot and tropical fruit flavors. It is one hundred percent Torrontés.\r\n\r\nAnd it is a perfect “Turkey Wine!” For only $14.97 at Bill’s Liquor on Lady’s Island. Unfortunately, this is a very limited wine. Yes, bad news. In fact, we’re not supposed to have it. At all. What happened is this. It was sent into South Carolina by mistake. Another wine was supposed to come. Seems mistakes can happen all over. But, there is a finite amount of the Cuma Torrontés to be had. Some of us will be lucky and have some for our holiday meals. Yay!

It was a chance meeting between the painter and a photographer who loves birds and nature as much as she did. Tom Brady and his wife Maureen had bought one of Kathy’s paintings and Tom asked Kathy if she would like to see his photographs.\r\n\r\n“I immediately thought his photographs were brilliant. I loved everything about his pictures: the sharp contrast in colors, his attention to detail, and the interesting poses of the birds. Almost every photo stirred my imagination and when he offered to let me use his photographs as studies for paintings it was a dream come,” says Crowther.\r\n\r\nShe asked what she could do to repay his kindness and Tom indicated they should have a show together. The collaborative work of each artist will exhibit as “Wings” at the University of South Carolina Beaufort Center for the Arts lobby gallery located at USCB’s historic campus, 805 Carteret Street, Beaufort. An opening reception has been scheduled for Monday, November 3 from 5 to 6:30 p.m.\r\n\r\nTom Brady took up photography four years ago after he retired. He joined a photo interest group in Mooresville, NC, where, with his point and shoot camera, he attended monthly photo critiques and learned more about cameras and photography in general. After moving to the Lowcountry, he was overwhelmed by the variety of birds on the ponds and marshes. In last few years he has discovered and captured on film the beauty and wonder of the native bird population through their seasonal habitations and interactions in nature.\r\n\r\nPainting has always been Kathy Crowther’s passion. She loves to take a blank piece of paper and make it come alive. Birds are her specialty. She moved to Beaufort eight years ago and found a wellspring of inspiration through her surroundings.  She has a very distinct style which she developed over the years, painting in gouache and outlining her paintings in ink. She exhibits her work in Beaufort, throughout the south, at Pinckney Simons Gallery and during Charleston’s Piccolo Spoleto Festival.\r\n\r\nDetailed information regarding this reception and the programs of the center for the 2014-2015 season can be found at www.uscbcenterforthearts.com or by calling the center box office at 843-521-4145.', 'Exhibit features collaborative works of two artists at USCB', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'exhibit-features-collaborative-works-of-two-artists-at-uscb', '', '', '2014-10-30 02:48:44', '2014-10-30 06:48:44', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19561', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(19565, 4, '2014-10-30 02:51:19', '2014-10-30 06:51:19', '<b>By Alan Schuster</b>\r\n\r\nSimply put, Carmen is an epic achievement in the 400-plus years of opera. Milton Cross, the distinguished voice of the Met Opera’s Saturday broadcasts for more than 40 years, considered Carmen to be “one of the universal favorites of the operatic stage, filled with vivid musical characterizations, brilliant orchestration and continuously flowing melody.”\r\n\r\n<b>Act I:</b> In a town square in Seville, soldiers wait for girls who will be taking a break from a cigarette factory. Micaela, a young country girl, arrives, searching for a soldier, Don Jose, but doesn’t find him and leaves. Don Jose appears as the cigarette girls are returning to work. Carmen, a stunning gypsy, sees him and tosses him a flower while she’s singing a song. Micaela returns, bringing tidings to Don Jose from his mother, to whom he has promised to marry Micaela. A quarrel  breaks out in the factory; Carmen wounds a friend and is arrested. Don Jose is assigned to guard her, and she tries to seduce him. Her scheme to win her freedom succeeds, and he frees her before they reach the prison. His offense, however, earns him a one month sentence.\r\n\r\n<b>The Music:</b> Carmen’s first dazzling number is her sultry Habanera: “Love is a bird that no one can tame,” sung to a tango. As she sways slowly to its growing rhythm, the orchestra and chorus add a powerful punch to the finish. Bizet gifts her with another equally impressive song, popularly known as the Seguidille. Sung seductively in Don Jose’s presence, she lures him into abetting her arrest escape.\r\n\r\n<b>Act II: </b>At a mountainside inn, Carmen is dancing with her friends when the matador, Escamillo, arrives and flirts with her, but Carmen ignores him in the expectation of Don Jose returning to her. He does, and they spend a brief passionate moment together before he must return to his barracks. Carmen asks him to run away with her to the mountains. Helplessly in love, he follows her.\r\n\r\n<b>The Music: </b>Four set pieces make up this act, each one stunning. At the inn with her gypsy friends, Carmen invokes a soft, sexy mood which gradually grows at a rapid pace, again with a rousing orchestral climax. Next up, Escamillo enters and wastes little time with a self-centered toast to himself, much to the delight of his admirers who cheer him on with a series of familiar “tore-e-ah-dor’s’. Without a doubt, it’s opera’s most recognizable couplet, heard far beyond stage performances worldwide. A unique quintet finds two smugglers looking for three zingarellas (gypsy women) — including Carmen — to join them on a job. “It’s always good” they say, “to have ladies with you when it comes to cheating and thieving.” It’s fast, colorful, and with sharp exchanges among them. A real gem. And finally, a remarkably effective scene in which Carmen tells Don Jose: “Now I dance in your honor”, accompanying herself with castanets while creating a sensuous mood, bringing about a totally obsessed look from him.\r\n\r\n<b>Act III: </b>Hiding with smugglers, Don Jose regrets breaking his promise to Micaela. Carmen, already tired of him, turns her thoughts to Escamillo.  After she foresees her death in tarot cards, Escamillo arrives and when he begins to fight with Don Jose, Carmen separates them. Micaela comes to the hideout pleading with Don Jose to return to his dying mother. He agrees, but not before threatening Carmen that she has not seen the last of him. Carmen, on her way to the bullfight with Escamillo, is warned of Don Jose’s presence nearby. He begs her to return to him but she rejects him. Blinded by jealousy and pain, he stabs Carmen to death.\r\n\r\n<b>The Music:</b> The “Card Trio” launches a brilliant passage of the score. Carmen, squatting on the ground with two friends, learns her fate with tarot cards. “Diamonds, spades ... death!”, she says. Then, in a low voice: “First I, then he,” as she turns and sees Don Jose nearby. It’s a dark and dramatic bit of theatre.\r\n\r\nIn the plaza outside the bull ring, the final scene begins with the popular march of the bullfighters. After they have entered the ring, cheering can be heard as Escamillo performs. Don Jose approaches Carmen near the entrance. Once more, he pleads for her love, but to no avail. As the cheers grow louder, he draws his knife and kills her. The arena doors open. Out pours the crowd to find the body of Carmen near the steps. Throwing himself over her body, Don Jose cries: “Carmen, je t’adore.”  [Running time, excluding intermissions, is two hours and 40 minutes.]\r\n\r\n<b>The principal cast:</b> Mezzo-soprano Anita Rachvelishvili returns to the Met, singing her signature role of the ill-fated gypsy temptress. Aleksandrs Antonenko plays Don Jose, and Ildar Abdrazakov is the matador, Escamillo. Pablo Heras-Casado conducts.

Help prevent slashed tires, smashed windows and deliberate car damage on Halloween — and every other day of the year — with these tips:\r\n\r\n<b>Check your surroundings</b>\r\n\r\nWhere you park your car can affect its likelihood of being vandalized. At home, park in the garage. If you don’t have a garage, install motion lights that will help deter vandals and alert you and neighbors to activity near your vehicle or driveway.\r\n\r\nAway from home, park in a well-lit, populated area — preferably a gated lot or secure parking garage. For added protection, park in a spot away from objects that could help conceal vandals, such as large vehicles, dumpsters or shrubbery.\r\n\r\n<b>Eliminate temptations</b>\r\n\r\nRemove valuables and any evidence of them from your vehicle. For example, clean GPS suction rings off your windshield, remove stereo faceplates and store cell phone chargers in the center console.\r\n\r\nBumper stickers also can tempt vandals. If someone doesn’t agree with your expressed views, you may become the target of vandals.\r\n\r\n<b>Take extra security measures</b>\r\n\r\nAdd an alarm system and/or surveillance cameras to your car to make it a less desirable target. If it’s clear your vehicle has these, vandals may keep walking. Sometimes, simply having a security system decal on a window is enough to discourage them.

Look at the words we use:  “<i>fighting</i> the good fight” or “<i>battling</i> illness” or “<i>struggling</i> against oppression”.  This can be exhausting — and too often, we don’t seem to make much progress.  Lately, I’ve begun to suspect this way of “warrior” thinking may not always be in our best interest.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19584\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"150\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Health-Awakenings-Rebecca-Compton.jpg\"><img class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-19584\" alt=\"Rebecca Compton\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Health-Awakenings-Rebecca-Compton-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" /></a> Rebecca Compton[/caption]\r\n\r\nPerhaps less is more.\r\n\r\nPerhaps “being” is more effective than “doing.”\r\n\r\nPerhaps <i>surrender</i> can actually move us forward.  And there is the paradox.\r\n\r\nSometimes, in the course of our lives, we go through times when we find ourselves hitting a “productivity” wall; we may lose our focus, our ability to follow ideas or projects through to some pre-defined conclusion. What do we do?  How do we handle these times in our lives when we just cannot seem to get anything done?\r\n\r\nIn our modern, technology-infused, productivity-focused world, we are often consumed with deadlines, objectives, or sheer “busy—ness”.  And sometimes that just doesn’t work for us. We may find ourselves prevented from moving forward in our lives — <i>in the way that once worked for us</i>.\r\n\r\nWhat if the Universe is trying to tell us something important about the way we’re living our lives?\r\n\r\nWhat if we’re just trying too hard?\r\n\r\nWhat if we’ve been sending our energy in the wrong direction?\r\n\r\nWhat if we could relax into the discomfort of whatever block is showing up for us?\r\n\r\nWhat would happen if we just surrender to the current struggle?\r\n\r\nThis revelation has been very personal for me (I suppose most revelations are personal).  I have been struggling (unsuccessfully) with writing about a particular topic: the distractions in our lives.  The more I tried to make the topic work, the more frustrated I became.  What I’ve realized, just today, was that my insistence on trying to write about one specific topic was preventing me from seeing any other possibilities. I was totally stuck and I couldn’t get much of anything else done. So, I have made the choice to stop fighting with an idea whose time was simply not now. And, of course, once I gave myself permission to just let go of my self-limiting initial idea, another possibility presented itself.  <i>Surrender</i> was the topic all along — I just wouldn’t allow myself to <i>know</i> that.\r\n\r\nThere was no possibility of progress until I fully embodied the idea of surrender. I acknowledged, accepted, relaxed into and was honestly thankful for this moment. And, it was in the moment, I could feel my body and mind release the tension of what <b>I wanted</b> to happen instead of what <b>needed</b> to happen. I was unable to perceive the better path because I was so invested in what my mind wanted (as opposed to what my heart knew).\r\n\r\nPlease understand that in my belief system, surrender is not the same thing as resignation. Resignation would have meant me giving up any notion that I could write at all. Surrender allowed me to release an idea that was not working for me — and that made room for another idea to appear. Resignation would have meant stopping. Surrender was a re-direction. Resignation comes from outside of ourselves; surrender comes from our core selves.\r\n\r\nWhen we are inevitably confronted by blockages in our lives, what do we do? Maybe we need do nothing at all.  Perhaps we can enjoy the delicious irony that surrender may, in fact, bring illumination and evolution.\r\n\r\n<i>Rebecca Compton recently retired from a much loved career as a school librarian.

They learned that engineers create, build, construct and plan. They also learned that engineers use a variety of tools but the students had to use those tools properly.  To incorporate the reading lesson about characters and settings, the class then sought out to build an indestructible home for the Three Little Pigs. They worked in groups to plan, create, and build homes out of different materials, then they tested the houses by re-enacting the story and watching the “Big Bad Wolf.” Ms. Newton try to blow them over with a blow dryer.  Three out of six houses did not fall down.

They began the Festival last year as a local venue for local authors, new and veteran, to meet the public and make new friends and fans. This year the Festival was expanded to add creative arts and music. As a result, over 70 authors and artists from not only Beaufort and Jasper counties but from across the state and the eastern half of the United States set up booths on the winery’s main public grounds between rows of grapevines.\r\n\r\nSaturday’s festival brought in approximately 1,000 visitors to meet authors, painters, photographers, artists who create works by using wood or metal or glass or gems, historic re-enactors, musicians, chefs, and more, and especially to participate in wine tastings within the September Oaks winery. Teenage classic violinist Murphey Alexandra from Lexington serenaded customers who relaxed in the outdoor room of the winery and banjoist Maggie Rogers of Beaufort performed a variety of songs at the main stage gazebo.\r\n\r\nThe Sons of Confederate Veterans Charles Jones Colcock Camp 2100 of Ridgeland not only participated in the living history on the grounds but also sold lunches to festival attendees. The 54th Massachusetts Regiment Company 1 of Charleston joined in the living history and regaled the audience with stories.\r\n\r\nFor more information, visit www.jandcwordsmiths.com or www.septemberoaks.com.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00416.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-19647\" alt=\"DSC00416\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00416-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00318.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-19648\" alt=\"DSC00318\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00318-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00324.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-19649\" alt=\"DSC00324\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00324-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19650\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00340.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19650\" alt=\"Tim Johnston, local author\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00340-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a> Tim Johnston, local author[/caption]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00341.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-19651\" alt=\"DSC00341\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00341-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00389.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-19652\" alt=\"DSC00389\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DSC00389-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" /></a>', '‘Novel’ event features wine, food, artists, authors', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'novel-event-features-wine-food-artists-authors', '', '', '2014-10-30 03:54:16', '2014-10-30 07:54:16', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19645', 0, 'post', '', 0),

Mozart’s vibrant <i>Trio in B-flat Major, K. 502 </i>begins the program with a blend of sophisticated conversation, caressing song, and witty repartee. Hungarian composer Zoltán Kodàly, a man of indefatigable energy, vision, and honor, whose musical contributions cut across disciplines and generations, will lead up to intermission. <i>Duo for Violin and Cello, Op. 7,</i> written during the final run up to WWI in the spring of 1914, combines the feverish energy of the era with passionate, idiosyncratic folk-like melodies. The concert concludes with Robert Schumann’s <i>Piano Trio in d minor, Op. 63</i>, a work both robust and intimate which runs the gamut from whispered conversation to symphonic extravagance. Returning to play this interesting and compelling mix of music will be three Festival Series veterans. Artistic Director, host, and cellist Edward Arron; brilliant pianist Jeewon Park, and Lowcountry sensation, violinist Tessa Lark.

(19696, 4, '2014-11-06 07:10:25', '2014-11-06 12:10:25', '<b>By Tracie Korol</b>\r\n\r\nPerhaps this scene has happened at your house: TinyDog, 7 pounds of orange fluff, grabs the meaty bone and drags it under the coffee table. BigDog, 75 pounds of mixed-breed approaches, eyeing the bone with intent. TinyDog lets out a dangerous growl much more ferocious than thought possible from something the size of a bedroom slipper. BigDog backs off and you chuckle at the little drama. We in the animal communication world refer to this behavior as “resource guarding”.\r\n\r\nA dog that defends his food or a treat from other dogs is exhibiting completely normal and appropriate canine behavior.  In the wild, where food equals life, the dog who gives up his food is a goner.  Dogs usual subscribe to the “possession is nine-tenths of the law” philosophy, so it’s generally not worth the risk of injury to argue over a scrap of food or a bone.  It all works out in the end, pack-wise.\r\n\r\nWhile resource guarding is acceptable and understood behavior, dog-to-dog, it is far less acceptable when it’s directed at us.  For our own safety we want dogs to understand that everything they have is really ours.  I call it the “I have thumbs (and you don’t)” principle.  But dogs are confused by our ignorance of the “nine-tenths” rule. Nice guys that they are, they’ll accede possession to their owners without fuss, most of the time. But, every now and again, our Best Friend may aggressively assert ownership rights to a precious toy, a tasty treat or a bowl of food.  Then we have a problem.\r\n\r\nGeneralized food guarding is the most common manifestation and often the most dangerous as it’s almost impossible to control the presence of food in a dog’s environment. No matter how diligent you are, your dog will find the half-cookie between the couch cushions, the desiccated chicken bone on the street or the kitty deposit under the shrubbery. We’ve all yelled, “drop it! dropitdropitdropit!” while the dog clamps down even tighter, plants his feet and shoots you The Look. When this happens it’s obvious he is not comfortable with you in his “space”.\r\n\r\nHere are some levels of guarding behavior to watch for:\r\n\r\n<b>Level One:</b> Ideally when you approach your dog’s bowl, he’ll stop eating, wag a bit and lean in to greet you.  He’s letting you know he does not perceive you as a threat to his dinner, or if he does, he doesn’t care. He’d be happy to share.\r\n\r\n<b>Level Two:</b> A slightly less perfect reaction to the same scenario is that Dog looks at you, wags, and continues to eat.\r\n\r\n<b>Level Three:</b> If Dog is a little uncomfortable about your distance from his food, he’ll tense his body. He may still wag. Watch the speed of the wag, though. If the speed of the wag increases as you get closer, paired with the tension in his body, he is communicating your presence is making him uncomfortable.\r\n\r\n<b>Level Four:</b> As his discomfort escalates, so does his body language and behavior.  At this level you’ll see a glare (The Look) or the whale eye, perhaps a bit of a snarl, or a low growl. He’ll start eating faster to prevent you from getting any of his food.\r\n\r\n<b>Level Five: </b> If the food is portable, he’ll carry it away from you — under a table, into his crate — and growl at you from there.  If he can’t pick it up, he may nudge it away from you if you continue to approach.\r\n\r\n<b>Level Six:</b> A serious food-guarder is liable to put some teeth into play at this point. A snap is the next step. No contact with flesh, but a blatant message of “don’t touch my stuff!”.\r\n\r\n<b>Level Seven: </b>Here’s where the threat to your safety, or the safety of a passing child, becomes deadly serious. This may be the actual break-the-skin bite. Contact is hard and fast and pretty scary. It may also consist of a series of bites up the transgressor’s arm.  In kennel, I learned this lesson the absolute hardest way when I attempted to remove a wastebasket full of old dog food from the attentions of a determined, (intact, I might add), Tervuren. There is absolutely no warning and, man, does it hurt.\r\n\r\n<b>Level Eight:</b> Severe food guarding can be triggered at a distance. At this level, even a person’s presence on the other side of the room can escalate very quickly.\r\n\r\nRehabilitating a guarder can take a huge commitment of time, resources and emotion. I applaud responsible dog owners who are willing to make the commitment required and I cheer when I receive reports from those who have been successful in getting their dogs to share.\r\n<div></div>', 'Thanks for sharing', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'thanks-for-sharing', '', '', '2014-11-06 07:10:25', '2014-11-06 12:10:25', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19696', 0, 'post', '', 0),

It began with my cellphone carrier and its Directory Assistance texts.  These texts  gave me not only the telephone number, but the business name, the address and map directions to get to the business.\r\n\r\nAlong with these texts came a new phrase for me. “Data chgs apply” which meant that I better check out my phone bill  because “chgs” meant charges.\r\n\r\nOnce I got started, the whole process snowballed and I had to learn the language. The first lesson was from my daughter: “Where R U?” Easy enough, but my fingers typing on the phone came out, 200 miles away, instead of 20 miles and she wasn’t home when I got there.  When I texted, “Where R U?” she didn’t respond because she had gone to the movies. So much for communication.  I had to learn some basic rules.\r\n\r\n<b>Rule One:</b> Make sure that you correct all your mistakes before you hit send.\r\n\r\n<b>Rule Two: </b>Make sure you know the basic text words like LOL. My girlfriend thought it meant “Lots Of Love” and wondered why I would respond to some of her texts with LOL.\r\n\r\n<b>Rule Three:</b> Auto-correct is Not your friend. This program changes the simplest words or phrases into something obscene.\r\n\r\n<b>Rule Four: </b>Make sure you know to whom you are sending the text. A particular erotic email to a spouse can be misinterpreted if it goes to your business partner or client.\r\n\r\n<b>Rule Five: </b>Watch out for younger family members. They send “Group Messages” which can really get you in trouble when you mean to send a text to just one person.\r\n\r\n<b>Rule Six:</b> Go to one of the senior pages on the Internet and learn some new text abbreviations. My favorite response to “Where R U?” is “OMMR”  On My Massage Recliner. I laughed because some of the “senior texts”  are really imaginative.\r\n\r\nAnd for those that are having hearing issues or don’t want to shout into the other room, this new shorthand is ideal.   My husband and I have started to text each other when we are in the same house, like right now.  “Boatng?”  “10-4” Time to go.\r\n<div></div>', 'The new shorthand', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'the-new-shorthand', '', '', '2014-11-06 07:13:42', '2014-11-06 12:13:42', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19701', 0, 'post', '', 0),
(19703, 4, '2014-11-06 07:15:06', '2014-11-06 12:15:06', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\n“Forgive me for I have Zinned.” This clever phrase shows up on T-shirts and other souvenirs sold where Zinfandel wines are made. For us, it just means we are going to learn about a new red Zinfandel because red Zins can be a great choice for Thanksgiving and other holiday dinners. Thanksgiving is particularly well suited to these wines because they are a uniquely American wine, maybe, just like Thanksgiving is our unique holiday.\r\n\r\nZinfandel is a red variety that is planted in about 10 percent of California vineyards. It is used to make two different types of wine — a robust red and a sweet-ish style blush (pink) wine. It can be hard to believe that one grape does both. The exact flavors and textures, and even alcohol level, of any particular Zinfandel wine, red ones only here, depends a lot on where the grapes are grown. From cooler areas, they show more red fruit flavors. From warmer climates, the wines so more black fruit flavors and spicyness.\r\n\r\nThe history of Zinfandel has been a difficult to pinpoint where it came from and when it developed. And, it seems to have several names. There is archaeological evidence that “vitis vinifera” vines existed in 6,000 BC in the Caucasus region, an area between Europe and Asia, between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. From here, vine growing spread to the Mediterranean and Europe, and winemaking, which obviously follows vine growing, too. Croatia is thought to have had indigenous grapes, for longer than anywhere else, several of them related somehow to our current Zinfandel. All of these old varieties were wiped out by phylloxera in the second half of the 19th century. What was left were nine vines, discovered in 2001, on the Dalmatian coast, one of the “parents” for Zinfandel as we know it today.\r\n\r\n“Primitivo” is another name closely tied to Zinfandel. This is an Italian name that first appeared in an Italian publication in the 1870’s. Because the “Primitvo” name showed up for the first time 40 years after the “Zinfandel” name was first used, it was thought for a while that Primitivo came to Italy from United States vineyards. Finding the nine vines in Croatia, though, meant adjusting this theory. Now it is thought that Primitvo was introduced into Italy in the 18th century. The name “Primativo” is related to the Italian words for early or first. The variety ripens early.\r\n\r\nZinfandel’s journey to the United States, and California in particular, was long and circuitous. The Imperial Nursery in Vienna, Austria, probably got their hands on some vines from Croatia when the Habsburg Monarchy ruled over Croatia. A Long Island, N.Y., horticulturist, George Gibbs, received shipments of grape vines from Schönbrunn and other European sources, between 1820 and 1829. “Black Zinfandel of Hungary” may have been one of the grapes that went to Long Island. Possibly, the name “Zinfandel” at this time was derived from the word “tzinifándli,” a Hungarian name for another grape. Anyhow, in 1830, Gibbs traveled to Boston and soon Samuel Perkins of Boston was selling “zendendal.”  A similar variety, Black St. Peters, was also supplied by Gibbs, but it was said to have come from England where many vines had “St. Peters” in their names. The Black St. Peters arrived in California in the 1850’s, and was called Zinfandel in the 1870’s.\r\n\r\nThe California Gold Rush, in the 1850’s, brought many people from across the country. The first California Zinfandel wine may have been made by Joseph W. Osborne. He had planted grapes in Napa in his Oak Knoll vineyard. In 1857, Osborne’s Zinfandel wine was highly praised and plantings of the grape spread rapidly. At the end of the 19th century, it was the most planted variety in California. It is some of these vines, that weren’t torn out during Prohibition, that are now making highly valued Old Vine Zinfandel wines.\r\n\r\nAfter Prohibition, and the Depression, the California wine industry was extremely weak. Zinfandel became obscure, used, if at all, for fortified wines. It wasn’t until the middle of the 20th century that reports of a “fascinating California grape” started to circulate. Zinfandel was described as “California’s own red grape.” But, science reared its head and in 1967, a University of California at Davis professor, Austin Goheen, visited Italy and noticed how closely Primitivo wines resembled Zinfandel wines. In 1968, Primitivo was brought to California, and the two grapes were declared identical in 1972. In 1975, a PhD student, Wade Wolfe, showed that the two varieties had identical isozyme fingerprints. In 1976, it was suggested to Goheen that Primitivo was the Croatian variety “Plavic Mali.” By 1982, Goheen had proven they were similar but not identical. Some Croatians, though, still wanted to believe that Plavic Mali was the same as Zinfandel. In 1991, some Croatian-born California winemakers, including Mike Grgich, formed ZAP (Zinfandel Advocates and Producers) to promote Zinfandel wines and to fund scientific research on it.\r\n\r\nProfessor Carole Meredith went to Croatia and collected 150 samples of Plavic Mali. In 1993, Meredith used DNA fingerprinting to confirm Primtivo and Zinfandel were clones of the same variety. By 1998, Meredith had established that Primitivo/Zinfandel was actually one of the parents of Plavic Mali. Finally, in 2001, when the nine vines were found, and tests were run, it was found that Crljenak Kaštelanski is Primitivo/Zinfandel in its original home.\r\n\r\nAll of which gets us to the questions “what’s in our bottles and what’s on their labels?”  Naturally, laws are not as quick to change as they might be. As of 1999, the European Union has recognized Zinfandel as a synonym for Primitivo. Italian Primitivos can be labeled Zinfandel for sale in the United States or any other country that accepts EU label laws, including the U.S.  In 2007, our Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau listed both Zinfandel and Primitivo as approved grapes for American wines. But, not that they are synonyms. In 2002, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms proposed that the two names be recognized as synonyms.\r\n\r\nOur wine this week is Kenwood Jack London Zinfandel from Sonoma Mountain. Kenwood Vineyards was established in 1970 on the site of the Pagani Brothers Winery that dated back to 1906. Kenwood owns almost 25 acres plus sources grapes from many other growers, most of them sustainably grown or organically grown. They do make several levels of wines, the Jack London being particularly good. These grapes come from the Sonoma Mountain AVA, which has red volcanic soil that makes for exceptionally fruity wines. This wine has raspberry and fig flavors and vanilla and white pepper notes. Good tannins, but smooth and elegant in your mouth and a long, lovely, lingering finish. It is aged 19 months in French and American oak barrels and is 94 percent Zinfandel with 6 percent Syrah.\r\n\r\nWhy is Jack London’s name attached to this wine? Because the author once lived on Sonoma Mountain, on the land where some of these grapes actually grow. For years, too, his grandson lived in Jack’s old house on the mountain surrounded by Kenwood vines. Maybe, instead of saying we’re going to Zin, we should be saying “The Call of the Wild” is in our glasses. For $20.99 at Bill’s Liquor on Lady’s Island.

Native Welshman Brother Cadfael is sent on the expedition to translate and finds the rustic villagers of Gwytherin passionately divided by the Benedictine’s offer for the saint’s relics. Canny, wise, and all too wordly, he isn’t surprised when this taste for bones leads to bloody murder. The leading opponent to moving the grave has been shot dead with a mysterious arrow, and some say Winifred herself held the bow. Brother Cadfael knows a carnal hand did the killing. But he doesn’t know that his plan to unearth a murderer may dig up a case of love and justice...where the wages of sin may be scandal or Cadfael’s own ruin.

Featured items include hand-loomed textiles, pottery, jewelry, baskets, toys and a variety of nativities.\r\n\r\nThe congregation is hosting the Market of Hope so that residents of Beaufort may purchase Christmas gifts that not only give joy to the recipients but also improve the quality of life for men and women around the world. Shoppers will also have the opportunity to learn about local organizations that are improving the quality of life for families in Beaufort. Shoppers may make donations to these partners as Christmas gifts in honor of loved ones.

Participants are asked to bring non-perishable Thanksgiving food items for a family of four or $20 and can choose to participate in one or all yoga classes offered.\r\n\r\n“The practice of yoga goes well beyond the mat,” said Registered Holy Yoga Instructor Carrie Carper. “The yoga community as a whole is a loving, giving and helpful one, and it is no surprise that this event came together as quickly as it did. Yoga is a way of life, and this event is one example of how our practice can be taken off our mats and directly into the community around us.”\r\n\r\nThe schedule of yoga offerings is:\r\n\r\n• 1:15-2 p.m.: All Levels Yoga with Carol Morrissey — “I am Thankful for You.”\r\n\r\n• 2:15-3 p.m.: Hatha yoga with Sally Moona — “Blessings from the Sun to the Moon.”\r\n\r\n• 3:15-4 p.m.: Vinyasa Flow Yoga with Ashlee Marcy — “Overflowing with Gratitude.”\r\n\r\n• 4:15-5 p.m.: Holy Yoga with Carrie Carper — “Love Your Neighbor as Yourself.”\r\n\r\nSuggested donations are frozen turkeys, potatoes, canned yams, green beans, cranberry sauce, and rolls.

The Camelot-like love she longs for seems like only a dream until she meets the handsome Kincaid Patterson, a West Point graduate who carries a dark secret from his past. Theirs is a passionate and unconditional love that has to confront a painful past, heart-searing separation, and the greatest of all tragedies.

The author will be holding a “Stories and Sweets” event at McIntosh Book Shoppe from noon to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 8.\r\n\r\n“Save My Place” is the story of Elisabeth’s meeting and marrying her beloved Kincaid, and the evolution of their married life even as difficulties arise. Elisabeth’s jaunty voice lifts us, along with herself and Kincaid, through seemingly unbearable situations. Upon meeting her, Kincaid exclaims, “You strike me as a very entertaining person.” Indeed, Elisabeth’s ability to find humor and joy amid sorrows, such as Kincaid’s deployment to fight in the Vietnam War, enlightens us about a powerful source of resiliency.\r\n\r\nStill, Elisabeth is a realist. Though she wishes to abide in Peter Pan’s Neverland existence, and has a “magic door inside ... that kept all the ills of the world at bay,” the door comes ajar. When their child is diagnosed with leukemia, Elizabeth’s indomitable spirit eventually allows her to engage in life and assist her husband in doing the same.\r\n\r\nOlivia DeBelle Byrd has created an admiral character for readers to appreciate in “Save My Place.” Her first book of personal essays, “Miss Hilbreth Wore Brown,” was the Silver Medal winner of  the 2011 Florida Publishers Association President’s Book Awards.\r\n\r\nMcIntosh Book Shoppe is located on Bay Street in downtown Beaufort.

Eric will be in the gallery on Saturday, November 8 as well.\r\n\r\nEric Lamar Jones was born July 6, 1977 in Vicksburg, Mississippi, where he currently resides. During his thirty-something years, however, he lived in Atlanta, New York, Washington, DC, and New Orleans.  He has worked as a carpenter, studio assistant, maintenance man and insurance agent. His journey as an artist began at his brother’s art gallery in Atlanta. That experience made the idea of being an artist realistic and sustainable.\r\n\r\nDescribing himself as a self-taught artist but also a protégé of his late brother and mentor, William Tolliver, Eric attended the William Tolliver School of Fine Arts and worked as a studio assistant for Tolliver over a period of several years.  As he has aged, his passion for art has continued unchecked. He has obtained more knowledge and skill in the arts with every passing year.\r\n\r\nThe subject matter of Eric’s oil on canvas and pastel/acrylic works on paper are African American figures involved in the activities of daily life: working, loving, playing, music, and just living.  Stylized, sometimes cubist, freestyle, the way they embody the emotion of the activity evokes the iconic or mythic.  Eric embodies a futuristic and contemporary style to his artwork.\r\n\r\nEric’s works are strikingly reminiscent of that of his late brother, the highly accomplished artist William Tolliver. Red Piano Too Gallery owner Mary Mack says of the brothers, “I first met William Tolliver many years ago in the New Orleans, La., Gallery Royale and immediately knew I had to own one of his works — what a surprise to come across the works of his brother Eric Jones in 2010.  I was struck by their stylistic similarity — especially the beautiful abstract/cubist jazz musicians painted by both William and Eric.”\r\n\r\nThe Red Piano Too annual Penn Center Heritage Days exhibit is free and open to the public.

As a child, he would hang out with his father in the home darkroom watching his dad as he developed film and made prints.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_1154-copy.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-19736\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_1154-copy-300x240.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1154 copy\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" /></a>Following in his father’s footsteps, David loves taking pictures and that love seems to run in the family. His sister and brother are both excellent photographers and even his youngest son seems to have inherited the trait, leading David to joke that perhaps this phenomenon is a result of his father’s exposure to darkroom chemicals.\r\n\r\nGrowing up in Hot Springs, Arkansas, David spent countless hours hiking, canoeing, hunting and fishing in the Zigzag Range of the Ouachita Mountains. Through these youthful adventures, he developed a deep appreciation and respect for the environment and wildlife.  As a result, David chose to pursue a career outdoors and received a degree in Wildlife Conservation from Louisiana Tech University.\r\n\r\nDavid and his wife, Leigh, moved to Beaufort in 1983 and immediately fell in love with the area. With the Lowcountry’s abundant wildlife and breathtaking scenery providing endless inspiration, David’s interest in photography naturally gravitated towards his other passions: nature, wildlife and the outdoors. It was his mother’s love of hummingbirds however, that spurred his special interest in bird photography.  David can often be found exploring one of the many local wildlife management areas in search of his next great photographic opportunity.\r\n\r\nAlthough the darkroom has been replaced by a computer and film by a memory card, David still gets that same smile on his face developing a digital image as he did in the darkroom with his dad so many years ago.  Drawing from his experience with film, David’s approach to bird and wildlife photography is to capture the moment with the camera, not create it in the computer.  His patience,  perseverance and attention to detail is evident in his work and he gets great pleasure creating the perfect photograph that captures the art in nature.\r\n\r\nIn Beaufort, David’s work is shown exclusively at Thibault Gallery, voted best art gallery in Beaufort. David will be at the gallery November 7 for First Friday After Five to meet customers, and he would love to show his work to all who come to the gallery that night.   Stop by and see his “wild” works of art!\r\n\r\nAlso,  this month for the First Friday After Five is themed “A Night of Giving”.   Each business will be sponsoring a non-profit. Thibault Gallery will be sponsoring HELP of Beaufort.

It raises awareness of the university, of the Studio Art degree program, and the fact that we have a significant amount of scholarship funds to offer deserving students.”\r\n\r\nThe panel of judges will select the top three emerging artists.

(19784, 4, '2014-11-06 11:14:15', '2014-11-06 16:14:15', '<b>By Susan Stone</b>\r\n\r\nWell, November certainly came in with a blast! Brrrrrr! With 40 mile an hour winds and temperatures in the upper thirties, our beloved plants found it as much of a shock as we did. November marks the beginning of frosty nights and cooler days, a very welcome change after a hot summer for many of us. As shocking as it feels to us, just think of our plants unable to move out of the wind or protect themselves from the frost. They need our help!\r\n\r\nOver the years I have seen some pretty creative methods used to keep plants from freezing to death. The obvious is to move them some place warm, which is fine if you have the room and the sunlight to support them. But what if you don’t? Or what if they’re planted directly in the ground?\r\n\r\nHere are a few tips to help you save your favorites:\r\n\r\n• If you have a shed or outbuilding to store plants, a single incandescent bulb will generate enough heat to keep temperatures above freezing. Obviously, the larger the shed, the more lights. The more airtight, the better the heat stays in. Simply adding some plastic sheeting to walls and drafty windows will go a long way to insulate the building inexpensively.\r\n\r\n• Create a cold frame for your favorite smaller plants by making a plastic tent. There are many simple do it yourself ideas on line. Adding a brick or paver floor will absorb heat by day and keep the plants warm at night. You can also use an incandescent light, but please use fixtures that are rated for “outdoor use”, to avoid electric shock and tripping circuit breakers.\r\n\r\n• For the plants you cannot move, try the old-fashioned Christmas lights. It’s a good time of year to find them in the store. You want the large bulb string lights. They get good and warm! You can string them on the plant or simply lay them on the ground around the base of the plant, then cover with a bed sheet. I avoid using plastic for obvious reasons around anything warm.\r\n\r\n• Using sheets to protect your palms; The Sagos are especially sensitive to frost. I usually only cover the heart, or the center of the palm to protect next year’s growth. I have found that it doesn’t matter if you cover the whole plant once the temperatures get below freezing.\r\n\r\nLarge plants such as bananas and palms will rebound from most Southern winters. Last year was particularly cold and damage from freezing was wide spread, but once the “ugly” was pruned away, most of the plants did very well over the summer.\r\n\r\nFrost is good for your winter crops. It seems to sweeten the greens, so don’t worry about broccoli and collards, they’ll be just fine. Lettuce is more sensitive so you may want to harvest just before a frost forecast. Lettuce doesn’t ripen, it just gets bigger, so you can pick at any time.\r\n\r\nFrom now until April, the pendulum will swing back and forth; warm to cool and perhaps even hot to cold and back to hot again.

She is on the medical staff of both Beaufort Memorial and Hilton Head hospitals.\r\n\r\nDr. Klenke’s seminar will include information about several easy in-office treatments, such as Botox and the ever popular selection of dermal fillers. “In the office, we use products like JUVÉDERM® and VOLUMA™ that come in a pre-packaged tube and are very safe to use. Fillers add volume to your face and help smooth out some of those fine lines and wrinkles. Fillers also add back volume where we lose it over time,” says Dr. Klenke. Other seminar topics will include PhotoRejuvenation, HydraFacial, and VersaPulse to treat spider veins.\r\n\r\n“Plastic surgery is an accessible resource for many people today and I want to make elective options easier to consider,” said Dr. Klenke.\r\n\r\nThere will be a meet and greet reception with the doctor at 5 p.m., followed by the seminar at 5:30 p.m. The seminar is free and open to the public, both Sun City residents and non-residents, but RSVP are required as seating is limited.

(19793, 4, '2014-11-06 12:28:46', '2014-11-06 17:28:46', '<b>By Mark S. Siegel</b>\r\n\r\nDiabetes is a disease that affects the body’s ability to produce or use insulin effectively to control blood sugar (glucose) levels. Although glucose is an important source of energy for the body’s cells, too much glucose in the blood for a long time can cause damage in many parts of the body, including the heart, kidneys, blood vessels and the small blood vessels in the eyes.\r\n\r\nWhen the blood vessels in the eye’s retina (the light sensitive tissue lining the back of the eye) swell, leak or close off completely — or if abnormal new blood vessels grow on the surface of the retina — it is called diabetic retinopathy.\r\n\r\nPeople who are at greater risk of developing diabetic retinopathy are those who have diabetes or poor blood sugar control, women who are pregnant, and people with high blood pressure, high blood lipids or both. Also, people who are from certain ethnic groups, such as African-Americans, Hispanics and Native Americans, are more likely to develop diabetic retinopathy. In fact, a new study confirms that diabetes is a top risk factor for vision loss among Hispanics.\r\n\r\nSomething to remember: diabetes can cause vision in your eyes to change even if you do not have retinopathy. If your blood sugar levels change quickly, it can affect the shape of your eye’s lens, causing blurry vision, which goes back to normal after your blood sugar stabilizes. Therefore, it’s important not to change your glasses prescription unless your blood sugar levels are normal.\r\n\r\nDid you know there is also a link between diabetes and cataracts? Permanent blurring of vision due to cataracts can also result from changes to the lens due to excess blood sugar. Cataract surgery may be necessary to remove lenses that are clouded by the effects of diabetes and replace them with clear intraocular lenses (IOLs) to restore clear vision.\r\n\r\nMaintaining good control of your blood sugar helps reduce episodes of temporary blurred vision and prevent the permanent clouding of the lens that would require surgery to correct.\r\n\r\nMark Siegel,  MD, FAAO, <i>Medical Director, </i><i>Sea Island Ophthalmology, </i><i>www.seaislandophthalmology.com</i>\r\n<div><b><i> </i></b></div>\r\n<div></div>', 'Maintain eye health with diabetes', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'maintain-eye-health-with-diabetes', '', '', '2014-11-06 12:28:46', '2014-11-06 17:28:46', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19793', 0, 'post', '', 0),

One day at work I received a tearful phone call from her. She poured her heart out to me that she was miserable in school and had been for most of the year.  She hated her science program but was worried about disappointing me by saying so. She felt that I had dreams of her becoming a pediatrician! I assured her that I was only supporting what I thought was her vision for her future.  She revealed that she was interested in switching to the technology program where she would study such subjects as set design and woodworking. She had always loved creating things from her vision and with her hands.  In college she majored in film and had a minor in journalism.  Today she is living her passion as a T.V. documentary film writer and producer.\r\n\r\nWhen we come to the time in our lives when we can no longer live someone else’s dream and where the compelling to JUST BE ME is so strong, actions of tremendous courage might be called for.  Often the fears that arise in the face of these requests will feel insurmountable.  The lyrics to the song remind us to not be afraid to be weak and to not be so proud to be strong.  Seeking the support and guidance of someone who lives a life of innocence, of freedom, is always a wise choice.\r\n\r\nThe song continues:\r\n\r\n<i>If you want, then start to laugh</i>\r\n\r\n<i>If you must, then start to cry</i>\r\n\r\n<i>Be yourself don’t hide</i>\r\n\r\n<i>Just believe in destiny </i>\r\n\r\n<i>Don’t care what people say</i>\r\n\r\n<i>Just follow your own way</i>\r\n\r\n<i>Don’t give up and lose the chance</i>\r\n\r\n<i>To return to innocence</i>.\r\n\r\n<i>Ifetayo White is a community elder and  WisdomWoman Director of Neesa’s Home and Retreat Center.  She shares empowerment coaching, pregnancy and childbirth support, Reiki instruction, energy healing   and body psychotheraphy, workshops and private retreat facilitation.  She can be reached at 843-271-1923 or neesamoon@gmail.com</i>.\r\n<div></div>', 'The Return to Innocence', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'the-return-to-innocence', '', '', '2014-11-06 12:31:07', '2014-11-06 17:31:07', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19795', 0, 'post', '', 0),

For many years Fred was one of the driving forces behind the collection, organizing and display of books for the annual Friends of the Library book sales.\r\n\r\nWhile Fred was on active duty, Doti began serving as a as a member of the Internal Revenue Service Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program and upon arrival in Beaufort, along with several others, established a VITA site which she has supported each tax season for the past 20 years. Her other volunteer activities have included service as a Literacy Volunteer of the Lowcountry at Beaufort Elementary, support of the annual Child Abuse Prevention Association (CAPA) fundraiser, participation in the American Red Cross blood drives and charity gift wrapping at Belk.\r\n\r\nIn addition to their many contributions to the community, they are very active in their support of St. John’s Lutheran Church where Fred has served as the supply pastor for Lowcountry churches, initiated the use of the Labyrinth (a form of Christian prayer and devotion), conducted the prayer program during Holy Week while Doti cuts, sews and stuffs cloth animals for the emergency room at Beaufort Memorial. Each Easter they erect and decorate a 14-foot Chrismon Cross with hand-made symbols of Christ.\r\n\r\nAs a result of their many exceptional acts of generosity over a lifetime of service to both our country and our community, Fred and Doti Wilson will be recognized as recipients of the Lifetime Community Spirit Award at the November 11 meeting of the Lady’s Island Business and Professional Association. In keeping with their request, in lieu of a plaque of recognition, a contribution in their honor will be made by LIBPA to the charity of their choice.\r\n<div></div>', 'Lifetime community spirit award: LIBPA recognizes Fred and Doti Wilson', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'lifetime-community-spirit-award-libpa-recognizes-fred-and-doti-wilson', '', '', '2014-11-06 12:48:43', '2014-11-06 17:48:43', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19808', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(19814, 4, '2014-11-06 12:53:26', '2014-11-06 17:53:26', 'Magician Gary Maurer is not what he seems. If one man can embody illusion and surprise, then Maurer fits the bill. Gary and his wife Kim, live in a pleasantly all-American house on a cul de sac in a planned community in Bluffton. Teenage kids toss a football around, lawns are green, and seasonal knick knacks decorate porches. The only hint that the Maurer’s house may be different is that cars are parked in the driveway, instead of the garage. As, yes, but presto-change-o, open the garage door and you step into an entirely different world. The room is stacked floor to ceiling with magic props and ingredients for illusions of all shapes and sizes. From top hats to swords meant to turn a box filled with a beautiful lady into a living pincushion, to everything in between. The only thing you won’t find in this garage are the English Angora rabbits which are part of the show. They are treasured family pets and have their own enclosure where they live and happily produce “the best lawn fertilizer you can imagine”, according to Maurer. And there you have it, high and low, familiar and strange, magical and domestic all at once — very much like Maurer’s show, Bamboozled, which is coming to ARTworks this weekend.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19815\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"199\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Maurer-Magic.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19815\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Maurer-Magic-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"Magician Gary Maurer\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" /></a> Magician Gary Maurer[/caption]\r\n\r\n“Bamboozled is a cabaret-style magic show”, says Maurer. “It’s a show that combines magic, mentalism and comedy for an older crowd.  Younger children can attend, but they may not understand all of the content of the show.” To be bamboozled is defined as “to be entertained, tricked, confused, or puzzled” and Maurer attempts to cover all the bases as he segues from card tricks and sleight of hand, to larger Broadway-style illusions, and audience participation segments. Dubbed South Carolina’s “Magician of the Year” in 2010, Maurer focuses on entertainment as much as illusion, interjecting comedy and banter into every routine.\r\n\r\nAs fascinating as the stage show is, the back stage story is equally as interesting. Until age 35, Gary Maurer was an ordinary teacher in Allentown, Pa. In 1986, while attending a convention he saw a presenter use magic to get his point across and thought it was something he could in the classroom to get his students’ attention.\r\n\r\n“Well, once I got the magic bug, it didn’t stop. I joined local magic associations and attended lectures by nationally and internationally known magicians”, says Maurer.\r\n\r\nHow did his wife, Kim, react to this? She became his assistant, of course. The pair, along with their son Dustin, relocated to the Lowcountry in 2002, where Maurer has been performing regularly at Coligny Plaza, the Salty Dog, and other tourist destinations around Hilton Head.\r\n\r\n“I’ve been looking for a chance to do a full length show like Bamboozled, though, with more sophisticated material and some of my favorite illusions,” says Maurer. “Although, we’ll also be doing a Sunday matinee family show that kids can enjoy, too.”\r\n\r\nIf you go: Bamboozled will take place at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, November 7 and Saturday, November 8. A Family Magic Show will be presented on Sunday, November 9 at 3 p.m. Performances are at ARTworks, 2127 Boundary Street, Beaufort, in the Beaufort Town Center shopping plaza. Tickets are $17 each for adults and $15 for children under 12 and active duty military.

Open doors fanned the flames, which quickly spread to the living areas. When firefighters arrived moments after the 6:37 p.m. alarm, flames already were climbing out of the apartment windows and the front door, Beaufort Fire Chief Sammy Negron said.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19821\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Stuart-Town-Apartment-blaze-10-28-14.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-19821\" src=\"http://www.yourislandnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Stuart-Town-Apartment-blaze-10-28-14-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"An exterior view of the Stuart Town Apartment fire in Port Royal.\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" /></a> An exterior view of the Stuart Town Apartment fire in Port Royal.[/caption]\r\n\r\nThe resident suffered burns to his hand, forearm and foot when he tried to carry the hot pan and oil outside of the apartment, Negron said.\r\n\r\n“This was a very dangerous situation that could have been even more tragic in this apartment complex,” Negron said. “Residents quickly reported the fire and we had firefighters on the scene within minutes, working hard to extinguish the flames.”\r\n\r\nBeaufort County EMS treated the resident for minor burns. Firefighters remained on the scene until about 10 p.m. and contained fire and smoke damage to just the one apartment. An adjacent unit suffered minor water damage.\r\n\r\nTo combat the fire, 23 firefighters including a crew from Burton fire district worked at the apartment complex near Ribaut Road. That included four fire engines and three squads with support from the Burton Fire District.\r\n\r\n“The best way to avoid injury is to leave! Get everyone out of the house and call 911,” Negron said. After calling 911, and if the fire seems very small, some techniques for extinguishing a kitchen fire include turning off the heat, smothering the flames with a lid, or using a fire extinguisher or agent such as baking soda. Never use water on a grease fire, he said.\r\n\r\nAnother contributing factor to the fire was open doors. The resident apparently left both front and rear doors open as he escaped the house.

She was clear on Monday; by Wednesday afternoon she had a weeping, oozing wound on her right front leg and another on her flank. Her gooey messes might be pyotraumatic dermatitis, wet eczema or <i>Staphyloccocus intermedius</i>, but they are what we generally group under the heading of “hot spots”.\r\n\r\nThey are warm and swollen to the touch, certainly painful and often smell dreadful.  They can be triggered by bacteria, yeast, fungi, fleas, lawn-care products, irritating grooming products, anxiety, stress, boredom or as a reaction to having been recently vaccinated.  In many dogs hot spots mark the return of autumn.\r\n\r\nMost vets will treat hot spots by shaving the area, washing with disinfectant soap or rinsing with a liquid antiseptic. They will often use astringents, hydrocortisone sprays, antibiotics and steroid injections or pills.  If the dog can’t leave the spot alone, she may be sentenced to the Cone of Shame, E-collar (the lampshade device) that prevents her from getting at the wound.  Any dog can get a hot spot, but our pets are especially prone given our humid climate.\r\n\r\nBecause hot spots tend to recur, holistic practitioners tend to look beyond the obvious symptoms to the underlying causes. Richard Pitcairn, DVM, PhD, my mentor and author of one of my favorite reference guides with the longest, most unmemorable title (“<i>Dr. Pitcairn’s Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats”</i>) maintains all skin problems stem from the same health problem. He maintains that skin disorders stem from: toxicity from poor-quality food, environmental pollutants or topically applied chemicals; routine unnecessary yearly vaccinations that induce immune disorders in susceptible animals; suppressed disease (conditions that have never been cured that reappear as periodic skin discharge); or psychological factors such as stress, boredom, frustration, irritability.  Miss S is morbidly obese, eats garbage kibble and is confined on the back porch 16 hours a day. I’d wager her hot spots are a trifecta of causality.\r\n\r\nWhat’s the cure?  Dr. Pitcairn says it’s all in the diet. I believe him.\r\n\r\nHe recommends a short fast followed by an improved diet, absent any processed grains, soy, chemical preservatives, artificial colors, flavors or synthetic vitamins.\r\n\r\nThe short fast (a couple of days, fresh clean water always available) will encourage the body to burn up fat deposits where it holds impurities. By the time your dog returns to a clean diet, her body will have already started the healing process. But what do you do in the meantime when your dog has a great, nasty owwy?\r\n\r\nDespite a stellar diet, my Bea would routinely sprout a hot spot on her left hip every autumn. Before she could worry it into a full-scale drama, I would shave the area, wash it gently with an anti-bacterial soap, and apply tea tree oil diluted w/a neutral carrier oil.  Often by the next day her little wound would be scabbed over leaving her to sport a fur excavation site for the next three months.  Tea tree oil worked for The Bea.  As it is a bitter, smelly oil her only reward for worrying the site was the slobbery “get this off my tongue” reaction we’ve all seen. Tea tree is a powerful essential oil, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and used by Australian WWII troops to fend off trench foot in the South Pacific Theater.  It’s also known as melaleuca oil of MLM notoriety.\r\n\r\nHerbal treatments such as powdered goldenseal, comfrey tea or chamomile compresses will soothe and dry the wounds. A couple of plain old black tea bags soaked in hot water, squeezed almost dry and left to cool can be applied directly to the hot spot for as long as your dog will allow.  The tannins in the tea will help dry out the wound plus the cooling compress AND your personal attention will be soothing.\r\n\r\nHolistic philosophy says that organisms function as complete units that cannot be reduced to a sum of its parts.  If your dog gets a hot spot, certainly treat the “part”, but then look beyond the immediate emergency to find the source of the problem. With hot spots, as with other health issues, if the complete unit is healthy it follows that the parts will be healthy, too.\r\n<div></div>', 'What’s with the hot spots?', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'whats-with-the-hot-spots', '', '', '2014-11-13 11:04:32', '2014-11-13 16:04:32', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19835', 0, 'post', '', 0),

(19842, 4, '2014-11-13 11:22:47', '2014-11-13 16:22:47', '<b>By Celia Strong</b>\r\n\r\nAs Thanksgiving Day rapidly approaches, I’m sure there are knots in many stomachs — just looking at mile long lists of what still has to get done before “THE” day can lead some to think it’s too close. There is no way to avoid its coming. The only options at this point are to dig in and do what has to be done, or change your plans. All of a sudden the invitation to go to your old aunt’s house is looking better. Or, my favorite, making a reservation at a restaurant, giving up all the cooking and cleaning. (But then there are no leftovers, so maybe not a great option.)\r\n\r\nWhatever you end up doing, make sure you have plenty of wine. It helps while you’re cooking, eating, cleaning up, waiting to leave to go home (or the opposite, waiting for everyone to leave your house so you can relax). You know you need it. This week we’ll review a list of whites, and we’ll come up with reds for next week. Then all you have to do is count how many bottles you need and get them home.\r\n\r\nHere are some recommended white wines for Thanksgiving, in alphabetical order, so choose the favorites that will best compliment your meal.\r\n\r\n<b>Borsao White </b>($7.99). A Spanish white that is medium bodied and neutral enough in its flavors to pair well with all the flavors and textures that are a part of this meal. We all tend to eat too much — not because we’re gluttons, but because there are just too many choices, too many good foods. This wine is made from a grape called Macabeo. Just try and tell me saying that several times  won’t be fun during your holiday dinner. Or try “Viura,” another name for the same variety. The vines are 25 to 30 years old; the wines are medium bodied, smooth yet dry, minerally with stone fruit flavors. Perfect.\r\n\r\n<b>Ferrari Carano Bella Luce</b> ($13.99) A California blend of 11 varieties — some we’ve heard of and drunk often, some we’ve never heard of and have no way of knowing if we have or haven’t ever drunk them. Together, though, they make a lovely wine. A very unique wine, probably why I like it so much. Also, this is one of the far better pairings for a turkey dinner. Clean, crisp, fruity and refreshing. This wine can be drunk very cold, if that’s how you like it, with turkey, white and dark meat, ham, sweet potatoes, broccoli casserole.\r\n\r\n<b>Hecht &amp; Bannier Côtes de Provence Rosé </b>($19.99) For sure we have to include a wine for ham. It’s that old “pink wine for pink meat” thing. This Côtes de Provence wine is excellent with ham, but why save it just for that? Turkey, duck and pheasant all will go well with it also. It has mild strawberry and red currant flavors, great dryness and acidity, smooth textures and beautiful, beautiful rosé color. A holiday in a glass if I ever saw one.\r\n\r\n<b>Marc Roman Terret </b>($6.99) A “more than its price leads you to expect” wine. It doesn’t happen often, but once in a while a wine comes in at an unexpectedly good price. And we all ask “Why?”  Well, who cares! It’s a great wine for the price and our job is to know when to use it. Like when you have a crowd of people, some who know nicer wines than others. But you can’t buy separate bottles for everyone and that’s when the Marc Romans come out. Terret is a dry white variety with less puckery acidity than Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio, and less weight and oakiness than Chardonnays. Add in their red wine (Malbec) and their Rosé (Syrah) and you’ve got the whole day covered. And your budget safe.\r\n\r\n<b>Pierre Sparr Pinot Blanc</b> ($14.99) One of my favorites, all year long. This is by far one of the best food wines. Ever. Which shows you what can be the problem with reviewing wines for special occasions — I like them all anyhow. And the few that make the “Last Chance” list are always really good ones. Pinot Blanc is related to Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris/Grigio. More green-colored skin. A pretty full-bodied white, without oak, that for a long time was thought to be related to Chardonnay. And it fills in nicely for a Chardonnay. For a turkey dinner, or ham, or duck, or whatever, an Alsatian Pinot Blanc, like this one, is a great choice. More neutral than a Chardonnay, so it blends with the foods’ multiple flavors better.\r\n\r\n<b>Stags Leap Wine Cellars Sauvignon Blanc </b>($19.99) A Napa County wine, with all the history and prestige to go with it. A stellar winery, known possibly more for their reds than whites, but when you’re good, you’re good. A full-bodied white with ripe pear, melon, herb flavors and hints of baking spice and vanilla from some oak aging.  Made to really go with a big meal. Which is, I think, what we’re talking about?\r\n\r\nIt’s really difficult to come down to a final choice for the right holiday wine. I suppose budget is part of what each of us will drink. How well what we like to drink is shared with our family and friends at the table. A lot of thought is involved. And, we still have red wines to consider. Here’s my proposal: This week think over your whites. Choose two or three to taste one last time, if you can’t narrow it down to one final winner. Write down your choice when you make it, and put it in a safe place. Next week, do the same with reds. That way you will have decisions made days ahead of time, and that means you can relax and have a nice holiday. Enjoy.\r\n\r\nAll these wines can be found at Bill’s Liquor on Lady’s Island.', 'Last chance whites', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'last-chance-whites', '', '', '2014-11-13 11:22:47', '2014-11-13 16:22:47', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19842', 0, 'post', '', 0),
(19844, 4, '2014-11-13 11:24:11', '2014-11-13 16:24:11', '<b>By Noel Tillman</b>\r\n\r\nCharity and caring for one another do not stop because of religious, ethnic, gender or political differences. In Beaufort, Our Lady’s Pantry goes beyond offering immediate subsistence with health advice, food distribution, diet recommendations, and prayerful intervention or assisting with medical insurance, job searches and food stamps. Our Lady’s Pantry is located at 70 Carolyn Drive, near the Beaufort High football stadium on Lady’s Island and it is one group that is ensuring its work takes the steps needed to help the community.\r\n\r\nThe pantry is sponsored and supported by Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Charleston. The diocesan office is located in Columbia, SC, and has established goals that meet the diverse needs of many across the state.\r\n\r\nMore than 50 volunteers make it happen at Our Lady’s Pantry, and together they serve the poor five days a week, from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. Students from the surrounding middle and high schools often come in after school and over the holidays to assist the volunteers who travel from as far as Hilton Head, Yemassee, and Okatie. The only paid staff person is Pam Rice, the Regional Coordinator of the Lowcountry for Catholic Charities, and her day begins before the volunteers arrive and long after they leave.\r\n\r\nPam shared, “This program is truly ecumenical, and the helpers and recipients do not need to be members of the local parish, St. Peter’s. The volunteers, like those receiving assistance, are from different ethnic backgrounds and genders, and age groups range from 12 through 70.”\r\n\r\nThe criteria to receive assistance is prescribed by the Lowcountry Food Bank and stipulated by the federal government guidelines. It is based on the number in the family, the inclusive income and the food stamp benefits of everyone in the household. When patrons register, they must bring an up-to-date picture ID (i.e. SC driver’s license), a recent local utility bill confirming their identity as the head of household and the living address of the applicant’s ID. The patrons can return once every 30 days with their picture ID in hand.\r\n\r\nItems distributed come from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Lowcountry Food Bank, individual and church donations, and Second Helpings, which picks up and distributes surplus food from local supermarkets and restaurants. Last year, the diocese provided the money to purchase 378,921 pounds of meat, produce, and non-perishable foods, while Second Helpings enhanced the pantry’s food allotment to the clients by 155,427 pounds.\r\n\r\nThe pantry’s recipients’ monthly pick up of food is allotted based on family members living at home. A single person would receive about 20-30 pounds of food, and a larger family might receive at least twice that amount. The grocery cart includes meat, veggies, fruit, bread, canned and non-perishables to feed that household for about 3 to 4 days. The financial value of the items is estimated to be between $35 to $100.  Bagged items vary each month depending upon what foods are available.\r\n\r\nOur Lady’s Pantry stands out among the many groups in the Beaufort area involved in food redistribution because it offers preventative nutritional and diet awareness information to clients. A person who is having weight and related health issues should not stock up on processed food items, sugar, and/or carb laden foods. Each person receives a physician prepared health handout that addresses specific health issue(s) that define the disorder, the symptoms, risk factors, treatment to get better, and specific foods to eat or not eat. Handouts address diabetes, high cholesterol, acid reflux, high blood pressure, pregnancy, and others problems.\r\n\r\nDuring intake interviews, community members register for assistance, share their diagnosed illness(es), and a medical information handout is reviewed to ensure they understand how eating habits might exacerbate health issues, and what foods would improve their health.\r\n\r\nRoutine exercise is also pushed as part of the action plan. A special high weight-range medical scale was donated to the pantry by United Health Care to assist with screening information to encourage the client’s holistic monthly review toward wellness. All this health information encourages clients to “Eat Well to Be Well”.\r\n\r\nPam Rice shares numerous stories about improved conditions because of these interventions. One man came into the pantry with acute gout in his hands and feet and was counseled and given the appropriate handout.  He returned to the pantry opening and closing his fist with great speed and ease and said, “Do you know how long it has been since I could do this?”\r\n\r\nAnother with migraine headaches could only get relief by getting a shot. She was given the appropriate handout and returned saying, “They’re gone! They’re gone!

As she presses the button for Nancy Pong’s apartment, Mary admits to herself that Nancy doesn’t know her because she, Mary,  is too busy to make friends with neighbors.\r\n\r\nHow many of us can relate? What stops us from introducing ourselves and greeting a neighbor? Mary’s excuse in the movie was because she was too busy.\r\n\r\nWhen I moved onto my street, I was amazed at the number of friendly people who stopped and said hello. They dropped off cookies and flowers and made us feel welcomed. How nice to have neighbors who actually talk to you.   What a great introduction to the South.\r\n\r\nThe practice doesn’t have to end with the neighbors on your street or in your building. You can extend it to others. I have started to talk to people in coffee shops and nurseries and other locations only to find that they know someone from my hometown or go to my church or live in my community. Just a simple “Hi, I am new to the area” has sparked stories of when people moved here and their experiences. It was amazing the number of people who then also recommended their church or service providers or other helpful tips.\r\n\r\nIt made me realize too that I had not been saying “hi” to people in my old hometown. I was not one of those residents who made small talk at the coffee shop. I was too busy, like Mary, to get to work. Too busy to make eye contact for fear someone would actually want to talk to me!  It is no wonder that many Northerners are considered standoffish.\r\n\r\nI don’t know if it is the warmth of the days that makes a difference in the South or just a calmer way of life, but I know that people seem friendlier here and because of it, I am friendlier.  When I am shopping downtown and a tourist asks me a question, I make sure I take the extra moments to answer the questions and welcome them. Maybe it is one of the reasons people like to come back here to either visit or live — someone has stopped, looked into their eyes, and made contact with them, unlike Mary and Nancy Pong.\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n<b><i>Lee Scott, a writer and recent retiree, shares her everyday observations about life after career.  A former commercial banker responsible for helping her clients to reach their business objectives, Lee now translates those analytical skills to her writings.

They wanted something that would be sustained  for a long period of time.\r\n\r\nThe coat drive has been a resounding success. Schools, churches and other organizations have also participated in the drive. When it first started in 1990, FWDG collected over 300 coats. In recent years, it has averaged  over 1,500 coats, even reaching 3,000 at one point.\r\n\r\nThis year, a new twist has been added to the coat drive: an organization named Stitches of Love has contacted FWDG and wishes to create some caps to keep children’s heads warm during the winter months. The FWDG Coat Drive is one of the select few projects of the group that will be focused on one geographical area, Beaufort County. The goal is to create 200 hats during the Coat Drive to be distributed.\r\n\r\nThe coat drive started on November 1 and ends on December 31.\r\n\r\nEach year, FWDG has requests from numerous businesses wishing to be a drop-off point, both in Northern and Southern Beaufort County. This year, FWDG at 745 Robert Smalls Parkway, Carolina Stamper at 203 Carteret Street, and Coldwell Banker Platinum Partners, 1211 Boundary St.,  will be drop-off points in  Northern Beaufort County. Coldwell Banker Platinum Partners, 29 Plantation Park Dr., Suite 106, Bluffton,  will be drop-off points for South of the Broad.\r\n\r\nFor more information, please contact Larry Mark at 843-524-8695 or lmark@fwdgonline.com.\r\n\r\nFWDG has provided the Lowcountry with great value, service and selections of furniture for more than 40 years.

This workshop is free but space is limited to the first 30 registrants. To register, artists should call 803-734-8693 or email sduplessis@arts.sc.gov and provide name, number and email.\r\n\r\nThe goal of the series of workshops is to give artists the tools to create basic support materials necessary for promotion of their art work through a variety of mediums. “It is especially designed for Gullah Geechee residents who practice or represent one or more of the cultural expressions outlined in the Gullah Geechee Corridor’s management plan,” said Ken May, South Carolina Arts Commission executive director. Those areas include music, arts, handicrafts, foodways, spirituality, language, education and economic development. The development of these workshops began after a series of community arts meetings in 2013, where the Arts Commission, in partnership with the Gullah Geechee Cultural Heritage Corridor Commission, heard from more than 80 artists and community residents in the corridor.\r\n\r\n“Our ongoing goal is to make new relationships that bring new resources to people and create interest in the corridor — both in the state and beyond,” May said.\r\n“We are also pleased to present these workshops in partnership with local libraries, which serve as essential community resources.”\r\n\r\nThe workshops will be led by Charleston native Kerri Forrest, award-winning journalist and owner of Social Creative Media Consulting.\r\n\r\nFor additional information, contact Arts Participation Program Director Susan DuPlessis, sduplessis@arts.sc.gov or 803-734-8693.\r\n<div></div>', 'SC Arts Commission presents workshops for Gullah artists', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'sc-arts-commission-presents-workshops-for-gullah-artists', '', '', '2014-11-13 11:35:36', '2014-11-13 16:35:36', '', 0, 'http://www.yourislandnews.com/?p=19852', 0, 'post', '', 0);
