Local law enforcement ready for National Night Out BY ROBERT J. BAKER bbaker@theitem.com It’s 6 p.m. Tuesday. Do you know where your children are?

Can she talk to animals? Sumter teen wildly passionate about all kinds of critters BY RANDY BURNS Special to The Item Colby Cole of Sumter is not like any 13-yearold you have ever met. She has green hair. She is home schooled by her mom. She doesn’t wear shoes. She doesn’t

play video games. There is no photo of Justin Bieber on her bedroom wall. And, she shares her room with three rats, two turtles, four snakes and three lizards. The family dog JoJo also stays inside, and there are always

dogs, cats and chicks in the backyard. And there are plenty of stuffed bears, birds, turkeys and deer heads adorning the walls throughout the house. Colby said she doesn’t remember life without animals. When she was 3 years o old, Colby went dove hunting with her parents — Jimmy

and Kathy Cole. When Colby discovered one dove was still alive, she picked it up and talked her parents into taking the bird home with them. With their help, she went on to nurse the bird back to health. “I guess that was the start of it,” Colby’s mother said. “There’s no telling what she’s going to bring SEE COLBY, PAGE A6

Men in photo identified, cleared in carjacking investigation BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com Two men seen in a still photo from security camera footage have been cleared in the investigation of a robbery and carjacking. Sumter police said they identified the men after the photo was released to the media Friday and have determined the individuals were not involved in the carjacking. Police released the photo

as part of an investigation into two men who robbed a man and woman at the drivethrough ATM of the Bank of America at 670 W. Liberty St. The crime occurred at 11:15 p.m. Thursday and ended when the robbers drove off in the victims’ green 2002 Ford Explorer. Investigators are trying to identify those men and ask that anyone who might have information about the crime to contact Sumter police.

“No matter how small it is,” said Deputy Police Chief Alvin Holston, “they might have seen someone running or heard something about that time of night.” According to the 25-yearold victim, he and a 19-yearold woman drove up to the ATM when they were approached from behind by two men armed with handguns. The gunmen robbed them at gunpoint, forced them out of the vehicle and took off with

the victim’s car, a two-door sport SUV with North Carolina tag SSE6078. The robbers are described as black males in their early to mid-20s with dreadlocks. Police said Friday they think the individuals involved are the same as those who robbed and carjacked another man at the same ATM a month earlier. About 10:20 p.m. on June 28, a 59-year-old man reported that three unidentified

men robbed him at gunpoint while at the ATM, then stole his car. In that case, the vehicle was recovered a short time later, found abandoned off South Main Street. Anyone with information about the crime is asked to contact the Sumter Police Department at (803) 436-2717 or Crime Stoppers at (803) 4362718 or 1-888-CRIME-SC (274-6372). Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward.

4 sent to hospital after 3-car wreck Four people were taken to Tuomey Regional Medical Center on Saturday morning after a three-car wreck on U.S. 401. The wreck occurred at 8 a.m. between Foxworth Mill Road and Jessamyn Road in Oswego. According to S.C. Highway Patrol, a 2001 Dodge Ram pick-up truck driven by Joseph Zito, 63, of Sumter, was traveling northbound on U.S. 401/Oswego Highway when Zito reportedly fell asleep and crossed the center line. A 2006 Pontiac G6 driven by a 20-year-old man reportedly swerved to avoid the oncoming car and went into a ditch, and the Ram collided head-on with a 2001 Ford Focus driven by a 74-year-old man. The force reportedly turned the Focus sideways in the roadway, and Zito had to be extricated from his car by first responders. All three drivers and a 66-year-old

woman riding in the Focus were transported to Tuomey with reportedly minor injuries. All were reportedly wearing their seat belts. Zito will be charged with driving left of the center line, according to Highway Patrol.

2 men die in separate motorcycle wrecks BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com In a single 24-hour period, two men were killed in the tricounty area in separate motorcycle wrecks. On Friday night, Antinae Dontrell Isaac, 27, of Inman, died when he crashed into a telephone pole in the 1800 block of West Oakland Avenue. Then on Saturday morning, Frederick Nacovitch, 55, of Sumter, was struck and killed by an SUV on U.S. 15 in Clarendon County. Isaac was reportedly visiting family in Sumter when he reportedly struck the pole at a high rate of speed at 8:20 p.m. on Friday. Sumter County Coroner Harvin Bullock said Isaac died from severe trauma and multiple blunt-force injuries. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Bullock said it did not appear he was wearing a helmet at the time. Fifteen hours later, Nacovitch was reportedly traveling southbound on U.S. 15 near

Frank Rhames Road near Silver when a 2003 Cadillac SUV reportedly crossed over the center line at 11:30 a.m., striking and killing Nacovitch. After striking Nacovitch, the Cadillac reportedly continued into a ditch and overturned. The driver, a 46-year-old woman, was transported to Clarendon Memorial Hospital. A young girl who was also in the car was reportedly uninjured, according to Highway Patrol. Clarendon County Coroner Hayes Samuels said Nacovitch suffered “multiple injuries” and pronounced him dead at the scene. Nacovitch was wearing a helmet. Highway Patrol responded to the scene. First Sgt. B.K. Floyd, post commander of the Sumter/Clarendon area, said the reason the Cadillac left its lane and struck Nacovitch is not yet known. Highway Patrol’s Multi-Disciplinary Accident Investigation Team is investigating the incident, Floyd said.

Military members look for civilian career opportunities at jobs fair BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com Airmen and soldiers changed from their uniforms into civilian work clothes, as they looked to take the next step in their careers. Shaw Air Force Base and its Airman and Family Readiness Center stepped up to help, organizing a large jobs fair with several local employers Friday. Each year, the readiness center hosts a jobs fair at the Carolina Skies Club and Conference Center, bringing retiring service members, veterans, their spouses and others together on base with companies hoping to bring on employees with military skills. Thirty-nine companies, colleges and government agencies participated in Friday’s event, speaking with

what organizers hoped would be more than 400 job seekers. “We’ve had a great turnout, and we’ve gotten a lot of good résumés,” said Darlene Gainey, branch manager for staffing for Roper-St. Francis Health System. “We hope to make some long-term placements today.” Gainey had a wide variety of openings with her company, from maintenance to IT to “anyone with administrative experience.” Recruiters from multiple fields said a military background provides a strong skill set to draw from for a civilian career. “The military is always good” for new security officers, said Dennis W. Dobbs with the S.C. Department of Corrections. “I’m retired military. It’s a

Lieutenant recruiter Dennis W. Dobbs with the S.C. Department of Corrections speaks with servicemen at Shaw during Friday’s on-base jobs fair. Dobbs, a former serviceman himself, said the military provides a good background for working in corrections.

STATE BRIEF | From Associated Press reports

Officials seek woman posing as agent ROCK HILL — Authorities in York County are searching for a woman accused of confiscating guest IDs at a Fort Mill hotel and claiming to work with the Secret Service. The Herald of Rock Hill reported that police said the woman later called the same hotel five times and claimed to be an FBI agent. The York County Sheriff’s Office is looking for 45-year-old Carma Leilani Ariel of Charlotte. Her face is featured on social media, and she’s been added to the list of accused criminals wanted by the county.

VBS students, leaders reach out to others in community Children in outreach program visit nursing homes, assisted living centers BY RANDY BURNS Special to The Item BISHOPVILLE — Vacation Bible School has been over at First Baptist Church for almost two months, but the youngsters and adult leaders continue to come together to reach out to the community. A dozen youngsters, Bible school leaders and several church members were at Cottonwood Assisted Living Facility on 800 W. Church St. on Thursday afternoon for a children’s ministry program, “The God of Angel Armies is With You.� The special ministry kicked off at Cottonwood with a puppet show and a sampling of songs the young people learned this summer. Additional performances are scheduled later this month at McCoy’s Nursing Home and Bishopville Manor. Sylvia Seymour, the director of the Children’s Ministry at First Baptist, said the outreach program is an extension of the summer’s Vacation Bible School. “This program is built around one of the songs from VBS, leaving behind the Colossal Coaster World theme

county to host their own. City police will be on hand, however, for the 2 p.m. kickoff at Shiloh-Randolph Manor. “(We will have) a proclamation reading by Mayor (Joseph) McElveen followed by a safety fair,” said Lt. Don Florence. “Most of the events will be in the evening, but we do have events going on all day after the kick-off.” The county’s efforts will center on the new sheriff’s office on North Main Street. From 5:30-7:30 p.m., the sheriff’s office will hold demonstrations with the Sumter Fire Department fire house, the DUI safety goggles and car safety seats in conjunction with Tuomey Regional Medical Center. “We’re going to have a cakewalk, and a sack race for the kids,” Deputy Senior Cpl. Latisha Billie said. “And we will have safety fliers on everything from gangs and drugs to seat belt and bicycle safety.” While there will be many events throughout Sumter County, Clarendon County will hold its typically consolidated event from 6-8 p.m. at Scott’s Branch High School’s gymnasium in Summerton. “Last year, we held it in Manning; this year, we’re going back to Summerton,” Clarendon County Deputy 1st Class Annett Smith recently told The Item. “And next year, we will be in the Turbeville area. We’re trying to make it easy for children throughout the county to be able to attend one of the events.” Following a brief program, children and their parents will get to talk with Clarendon, Summerton and Manning law enforcement officials, along with elected officials from throughout the county. State Constable Lawrence Hammett, a Summerton native who organized Clarendon’s effort for seven years, told The Item in 2010 that this relaxing environment between children and authority figures “means children will be more likely in the future to report a crime or go to the authorities when they are in trouble.” “We’re trying to ease the children’s fears of the police in particular,” he said. “National Night Out helps bridge the gap between kids and law enforcement, and it’s also about raising awareness about crime and getting the community to talk about it and take action.” Smith said she’s hopeful that if the chance to hobnob with police and fire offi-

getting potentially deadly weapons out of the hands of those who might use them to commit crimes. And they will be offering complementary Walmart gift cards in exchange for the firearms. Officers will collect guns at two locations from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. All guns can be turned in anonymously, no questions asked, officials said. This will be the first gun buy back Sumter police have held in four years. The last buy back event in 2009 removed 32 weapons from circulation. “We’ve been considering doing this for quite some time, but we wanted to be able to provide something of value for the guns,” said Sumter Police Chief Russell Roark. Officers found their incentive in the form of a pre-loaded gift card. The police department received a grant from Walmart and redeemed it for gift cards in several different amounts, which will be handed out in exchange for different types of weapons. Someone turning in a handgun will receive a $50 Walmart gift card. A long gun can be traded in for a $25 Walmart gift card, and an assault weapon will get you a gift card worth $100 (while supplies last). Two area churches will act as drop-off locations. Officers will collect guns simultaneously at Alice Drive Baptist Church, 1305 Loring Mill Road, and Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church, 325 W. Fulton St. Mount Zion’s the Rev. James Blassingame said he’s glad to host the buy back event in his church’s Enrichment Center. “I’ve worked with the police department and the sheriff’s department. I feel that the church should be a partner with law enforcement,” Blassingame said. “This can help make a difference in the community.” Law enforcement thinks these

cials doesn’t draw kids and parents out, the goodies will. “We have lots of goodies for children,” she said. Law enforcement typically gives out some school supplies at the end of Clarendon’s National Night Out event each year. “We’ll have plenty for everyone,” Smith said. “All we ask for is no pushing and shoving and for (the kids) to be well-behaved and act like ladies and gentlemen.” Sumter residents who would like to organize their own event still have some time, Billie and Florence said. “We give tips for neighborhood events, like holding a candle lighting, a community walk, a cookout, a block party and a porch light campaign,” Billie said. For more information, call Florence at (803) 436-2721, Billie at (803) 436-2034 or Smith at (803) 435-4414. ACTIVITIES FOR NATIONAL NIGHT OUT Sumter and Clarendon counties go all out each year for National Night Out. Here are a rundown of known events: 2 p.m. Kick-off and safety fair at Shiloh-Randolph Manor, with proclamation by Mayor Joseph McElveen 4-6 p.m. Garden Circle Apartments, 202 E. Liberty St. James Village apartment complexes 5:30-7:30 p.m. Sumter County Sheriff’s Office, 1281 N. Main St. 6-8 p.m. Fuller Gardens Fitness Walk near Humanity Court The Historic District Garden Party, Mason Croft Drive and Palmer Street Clarendon National Night Out at Scott’s Branch High School’s gymnasium, Alex Harvin Highway in Summerton 7-9 p.m. Cookout and Safety Fair, South Main and Hoyt streets Ballroom Desserts at the Sunset Country Club South Main Street Neighborhood Watch, 808 S. Main St. 7-10 p.m. North Hope Center Safety Fair, North Main Street Activities are also planned by the Village Crime Watch Group near Lynam Road and Toxaway Drive, and in the Cherryvale, Delaine and Emerald Lakes communities.

buy back events can prevent firearms from being stolen or otherwise used in criminal activity. Taking the guns out of circulation can remove a threat to both the household and the community at large. “We want to make sure these weapons are safe and secure, if the individuals don’t want them,” Roark said. Some gun owners might have inherited weapons from someone else and have no desire to keep the weapons. Others may simply be nervous about keeping them around. “There are elderly folks with no one to pass their weapons on to. The worst-case scenario is that these weapons are used against them, or that someone has a weapon taken from them.” Either way, “we want to keep that weapon from falling into the wrong hands.” Blassingame also sees a need to address the misuse of guns in Sumter. “There’s a lot of gun violence in our community, and not just on the southside,” he said. That violence can be mitigated, the pastor said, “when law enforcement takes proactive, preventive measures.” Alice Drive Baptist also looks at the buy back as a way to serve the community. “Anytime we can do something with the sheriff’s office or the police department, we try to help them out,” said Alice Drive Administrative Pastor Mark Partin. “We want to do our part to make Sumter a better place.” Blassingame echoed those sentiments. “We follow the same page,” he said. “We’re concerned with making this a better place to live and work.” Anyone bringing a weapon to the drop-off is asked to transport the gun unloaded in the trunk of a car with the breech or chamber open, and point it in a safe direction at all times. For more information about the gun buy back event, contact the Sumter Police Department Crime Prevention Unit at (803) 436-2723.

COLBY from Page A1 home. But I have two rules: They have to be non-venomous, and they have to have no more than four legs.� Colby has been raised in an outdoors-loving family, Kathy said. “Jimmy and I have been married 19 years,� she said, “and we went deer hunting on our first date. And I killed my first deer. That’s the kind of environment that Colby has been brought up in.� Jimmy Cole said his daughter is a natural in the outdoors. “I will be walking in a swamp with long pants and boots, and Colby will be right behind me with shorts and no shoes,� he said. Still, Colby doesn’t actually go hunting with her parents. “Nah, she hasn’t really got into the killing thing yet like me and her mama, but she likes to take care of them,� her father said. “I’m tickled to death she loves animals.� Colby said she believes her love for animals is a passion that will last.

“I know God created all these animals,� she said. “I don’t buy into this evolution. I really do love these animals. I would like to breed them someday, but not to make any money. I just would like the experience of having newborn animals. I know animals are going to be a lifelong hobby for me. And I know that I want to be a veterinarian. I’ve always known I wanted to be a vet.� A couple of months ago, Colby had an opportunity to practice medicine when she brought a baby rooster inside the house because it was having trouble breathing. “I called him Baby,� she said. “Because that’s what he was — my baby. One morning I found he had jumped in the bed with me and was lying right next to me when I woke up.� Baby stayed inside the house until he was grown. He remains a family pet. Colby’s pets behave for the most part and stay where they are supposed to be, she said. But not

long ago, Colby discovered two of her rats had escaped. “I remember once when we came back from vacation, Mickey was lying on my bed,� she said. “It took me a couple of hours to find the other one. I found Pi in my toy box.� Colby has extensive knowledge of many subjects and is considered an expert by family and friends. “You’re not going to argue with Colby when it comes to animals,� her mother said. “Because you know she knows what she’s talking about.� Colby’s proficiency with animals also is well known in the community. Neighbors, family and friends call for assistance when her expertise is needed. Whenever there is any question about whether a snake is poisonous, Colby is considered the authority. “If I’m not sure, I will turn to Colby,� Jimmy said. “She will be at a church camp with 400 people, and if there’s a snake, spider, any kind of animal, they’ll call for

It’s like your children, I guess. Now, I do try to hold my lizards every day. You have to handle the lizards, or they’ll get mean.� She even nursed a baby squirrel, who she named George, a few years ago. “Squirrels are vicious animals,� Colby said, noting how happy she was when it could be released. “You think they would be soft and cuddly.� Colby’s friends, nephews, nieces and cousins are always eager to visit. “All of my best friends — Danielle, Lauren, Kaylee and Ty — love my pet animals,� she said. “They love coming over just to see all of my pets.� Colby is a regular customer at local pet stores. “It costs about $50 a month for food and supplies,� she said. “We have to feed the large king

SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 2013

WASHINGTON (AP) — Here’s how area members of Congress voted on major issues in the week ending Aug. 2. HOUSE STUDENT-LOAN RATES: Voting 392 for and 31 against, the House on July 31 gave final congressional approval to a bipartisan bill (HR 1911) setting variable but capped interest rates for highereducation loans, retroactive to July 1. For Stafford undergraduate loans, the rate would be set annually at the prevailing rate for a 10-year Treasury note plus 2.05 percentage points, with a cap of 8.25 percent. For Stafford loans for the upcoming school year, that translates into nearly 3.9 percent interest fixed for the life of the loan. Under the bill, rates for graduate loans are set at the 10-year Tnote rate plus 3.6 percentage points, with a cap of 9.5 percent, and for Parent Plus loans, rates are set at the 10year T-note rate plus 4.6 percentage points, with a cap of 10.5 percent. The government is projected to issue $1.4 trillion in student loans during 10 years under the terms of this bill, generating $715 million in profits for the Treasury. John Kline, R-Minn., said, “By getting politicians out of the business of setting student-loan interest rates, the measure we consider today will protect students from future uncertainty.� No member spoke against the bill. A yes vote was to send the bill to President Obama for his signature. VOTE H-1 slugged STUDENT SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Joe Wilson, R-2, Jeff Duncan, R-3, Trey Gowdy, R-4, Mick Mulvaney, R-5, James Clyburn, D-6, Tom Rice, R-7 Voting no: Mark Sanford, R-1 Not voting: None ENERGY COSTS v. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION: Voting 232 for and 181 against, the House on Aug. 1 passed a GOP bill (HR 1582) giving the Department of Energy power to block Environmental Protection Administration rules that affect the flow and cost of U.S. energy from production to consumption. Such rules, for example, limit power-plant emissions in order to protect air and water quality, while imposing costs on energy companies. Under the bill, the EPA would have to estimate to Congress a proposed rule’s effect on jobs and energy prices, and the energy department would have to assess the rule’s impact on the electricity grid and energy prices and supplies and then publish any “significant adverse effects� in the Federal Register. A yes vote was to send the bill to the Senate, where it is likely to be shelved. Bill Cassidy, R-La., said the bill “will protect consumers from higher energy prices by providing additional oversight of EPA’s most expensive rules.� Henry Waxman, DCalif., said Congress is obligated “to future gen-

erations to protect our atmosphere while there is still time. We need to be acting faster, not putting on the brakes to benefit the big polluters.� VOTE H-2 slugged ENERGY SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Sanford, Wilson (SC), Duncan (SC), Gowdy, Mulvaney, Rice (SC) Voting no: Clyburn Not voting: None BLOCKAGE OF 2010 HEALTH LAW: Voting 232 for and 185 against, the House on Aug. 2 passed a Republican bill (HR 2009) to strip the Internal Revenue Service of its authority to enforce the 2010 health law’s individual mandate. Under the mandate, most individuals are required to maintain a minimal level of health insurance for themselves and their dependents — through either employer-provided coverage, a policy bought in a state-based exchange, Medicaid, Medicare or some other means. Those not complying are subject to an IRS-enforced financial penalty capped at the cost of the insurance they failed to acquire. The Supreme Court has declared such taxing power constitutional. This bill also bars the Treasury and IRS from collecting other taxes or issuing tax credits under the health law. A yes vote was to send the bill to the Senate, where it is likely to die. VOTE H-1 slugged BLOCKAGE SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Mark Sanford, R-1, Joe Wilson, R-2, Jeff Duncan, R-3, Trey Gowdy, R-4, Mick Mulvaney, R-5, Tom Rice, R-7 Voting no: None Not voting: James Clyburn, D-6 PRESERVING HEALTH-LAW TAX CREDITS: Voting 186 for and 230 against, the

House on Aug. 2 defeated a Democratic bid to keep HR 2009 (above) from eliminating two specific tax credits in the 2010 health law. The credits are intended to help middle-class families buy coverage in state insurance exchanges and small businesses to buy coverage for their employees. A yes vote backed the Democratic motion. VOTE H-2 slugged CREDITS SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: None Voting no: Sanford, Wilson (SC), Duncan (SC), Gowdy, Mulvaney, Rice (SC) Not voting: Clyburn SUBSIDIZED AIRPASSENGER SERVICE: Voting 166 for and 248 against, the House on July 30 refused to kill the Essential Air Service program by shifting its fiscal 2014 appropriation of $100 million to deficit reduction. The amendment was offered to a transportation and housing spending bill (HR 2610) that GOP leaders later pulled from the floor for lack of votes. Under the EAS program, airlines receive taxpayer subsidies to provide two to four round trips daily between about 160 participating communities and hub airports. Communities in Hawaii and Alaska are allowed more flights. EAS has a $216 million 2014 budget in the bill, funded by both appropriations and fees. A yes vote was to kill the program. VOTE H-3 slugged AIR SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Sanford, Wilson (SC), Duncan (SC), Gowdy, Mulvaney, Rice (SC) Voting no: Clyburn Not voting: None SENATE TODD JONES CONFIRMATION: Voting 53 for and 42 against, the Senate on July 31 con-

THE ITEM

firmed B. Todd Jones, 56, to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, giving the agency its first permanent (non-acting) director since 2006. Jones is the U.S. attorney for the District of Minnesota and since 2011 has been serving concurrently as the bureau’s acting director. The bureau has lacked a regular director since 2006 as a result of pressure from gun groups that dislike its regulation of firearms. However, the National Rifle Association declared itself neutral on Jones’ confirmation. A yes vote was to confirm Jones. VOTE S-1 slugged JONES SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: None Voting no: Lindsey Graham, R, Tim Scott, R Not voting: None JAMES COMEY CONFIRMATION: Voting 93 for and one against, the Senate on July 29 confirmed James Comey Jr., 52, as director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, replacing Robert Mueller III. The negative vote was cast by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., to protest the FBI’s use of drones for domestic surveillance. Comey becomes the 11th director of the FBI in its 105-year history, not counting acting directors. No senator spoke against Comey. A yes vote was to confirm Comey. VOTE S-2 slugged COMEY SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Graham, Scott Voting no: None Not voting: None SAMANTHA POWER CONFIRMATION: Voting 87 for and 10 against, the Senate on Aug. 1 confirmed Samantha Power, 42, as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, replacing Susan Rice, who is now President Obama’s na-

tional security adviser. Power, a former journalist and Harvard University professor, has worked in the White House since 2009 in human rights and atrocities-prevention positions. A yes vote was to confirm Power. VOTE S-3 slugged POWER SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Graham Voting no: Scott Not voting: None MARK PEARCE CONFIRMATION: The Senate on July 30 voted, 59 for and 38 against, to confirm Mark Gaston Pearce, 59, for another term on the National Labor Relations Board, where he has been chairman since August 2011. This followed Senate confirmation the same day of four other appointees to the NLRB, giving it a full complement of five members for the first time since 2008. The NLRB is charged with overseeing collective bargaining and protecting the workplace rights of both labor and management. It is customary for the party occupying the White House to hold a majority on the board. A yes vote was to confirm Pearce. VOTE S-4 slugged PEARCE SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: None Voting no: Graham, Scott Not voting: None TRANSPORTATION, HOUSING FILIBUSTER: Voting 54 for and 43 against, the Senate on Aug. 1 failed to reach 60 votes needed to overcome a Republican filibuster against a bill (S 1243) to appropriate $54 billion in fiscal 2014 for the departments of Transportation and Housing and Urban Development and related agencies. The bill funds airport improvements, maritime programs,

highway safety, mass transit, intercity rail, public housing, Community Development Block Grants to cities and scores of other programs. Separately, it releases $53.5 billion from the Highway Trust Fund for road and bridge repairs and new construction in the fiscal year that begins Oct. 1. A yes vote was to end GOP blockage of the bill. VOTE S-1 slugged FILIBUSTER SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: None Voting no: Lindsey Graham, R, Tim Scott, R Not voting: None EGYPTIAN AID CUTOFF: Voting 86 for and 13 against, the Senate on July 31 tabled (killed) an amendment to S 1243 (above) that sought to cancel $1.5 billion in U.S. economic and military aid to Egypt and use the funds to repair bridges in America. Backers cited the U.S. law barring aid to any country where a democratically elected government has been toppled by a military coup. They said the recent overthrow of President Mohamed Morsi by Egyptian generals was a coup, even though the Obama administration has declined to use that word. Sponsor Rand Paul, R-Ky., said, “When the president refuses to acknowledge it is a coup ... he says the aid is going on indefinitely, and he will go on indefinitely flouting the law. Americans should be outraged and insulted by such blatant shirking of the law.â€? A yes vote was to continue U.S. aid to Egypt.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Baker has nothing to fear when challenged When I heard the news about Dr. Frank Baker being asked to serve again as superintendent of the Sumter School District, the first word that came out of my mouth was “alleluia.” I would imagine that Dr. Baker graciously accepted the challenge to lead our educational system with the positive attitude of looking forward. I specifically used the word challenge because it is my opinion this is what it will take to get things back on the right track for growth and success. The challenge will be not only for the educational system, our teachers, staff and parents, but more importantly, for the empowerment of our children. In order to get back on the path of empowerment, it’s going to take the strong mind of a powerful person who has nothing to fear when challenged. That person is Dr. Baker. It takes power to recognize the opportunity to get a quality education from preschool through 12th grade. One of the main things I like about Dr. Baker’s character and profession is that he sees a purpose and self worth in the life of each child. He sees a child moving up, out and beyond. Dr. Baker expects the same successful life for the child living in public housing and trailer parks as the child living in Runnymede and Windsor Forest. I

the great musician J.J. Cale died last week at age 74. Most of my (fun) friends started listening to J.J. back in the early 1970s, and his first album, “Naturally,” is an all-time favorite. I’ve had numerous copies of the vinyl edition of that record over the years, with the classic art cover of a raccoon in a red coat holding a cane and top hat next to a sleeping hound dog. But I have realized, to my dismay, that I don’t have it in iTunes, on a CD, cassette or anywhere else in this rapidly evolving modern world of music. I would strongly advise you to do as I did: Get on iTunes and download all 12 songs in honor of J.J. You’ll be happy you did.

believe “Success is a journey, not a destination.” It is very comforting to know that as a grandparent, I can go directly to the superintendent when it comes to my grandchildren’s education. In closing, I respectfully offer the words of Ralph Ellison to our board members: “It takes a deep commitment to change and an even deeper commitment to grow.” Thank you for your commitment of change and growth for the success of our children.

Thank you to garbage men who have positive attitude We moved here a little over a year ago. We really like South Carolina because the people are nice, but the weather is a little different than where we came from. But we’re dealing with it. Now I wonder how many people out there ever think about or say “thanks” to our garbage/trash men. These men down here do a wonderful job, and nothing is ever left laying on our lawn. The trucks are clean, never stinky, and those men act like they really enjoy their work. Just ask yourself sometime how would life be around your house if we did not have those guys picking up our garbage and trash. Pretty ripe smelling, I bet. And if you

have ever had chicken bones in your garbage for any length of time, you know what I’m talking about. So the next time that they are around your area, say thank you fellows, they deserve it. LILLI KALIE Sumter

look at the entire system. We need educational institutions and not learning factories. We don’t want to eliminate public education as the political right wants to do. If you think that private schools are the answer, I would suggest that you drive by Wilson Hall any day at recess and see what you don’t see. Education must be the most important and the only focus that students are concerned with. Next time we vote for a school board, look at who you are voting for. We need schools that are known for their education and not a sports team. We need schools that are not an extension of a church. A person’s religious belief is personal, and it’s hypocritical to use your religion in school and on the street. I don’t believe that a school board member should let his or her personal life influence or take away from the education system. A school board member should be totally dedicated to the system and students. Any disruption in school

Huge damage can be seen comparing principals, scores In response to K.D. Singleton’s letter, I simply state that just because you can make the decision is no reason that you should.

Sears’ 3 HRs pace Dixie Boys in 16-3 rout FROM STAFF REPORTS SENECA -- Sumter 14-year-old Dixie Boys all-star baseball head coach Danny Price said McLendon Sears was seeing the ball really well on Saturday at Shave Complex in the first game of the Dixie Boys World Series. That might go down as the understatement of the year.

Sears hit three home runs, including a grand slam in the fourth inning, and finished with eight runs batted in to lead Sumter to a 16-3, 5-inning victory over McNairy County, Tenn. SEARS “McLendon was swinging the bat really well today,” Price said. “We were able to get some

runners on for him, and he came up in some key situations. He was able to come through in a big way.” Sumter will take on Fairhope, Ala., today at 4 p.m. Fairhope defeated Springhill, Fla., 10-8 on Saturday. Springhill and McNairy County meet in an elimination game at 1 p.m. Sears, who was 3-for-3, hit a solo shot in the first inning to stake Sumter to a 1-0 lead. Drew Talley hit a 2-run

shot in the second to push the lead to 3-0. Sears smacked a 3-run homer in the third. Sumter completely broke the game open in the fourth with eight runs, including Sears’ slam. Talley went 2-for-2 with the homer and two RBI, while Dawson Price was 2-for-2 with three RBI. SEE DIXIE BOYS, PAGE B2

Former Brave helps raise awareness, makes terminally ill children’s dreams come true

LAUREL, Miss. – Playing in the Dixie O’Zone World Series means facing teams that can battle back until the final out. The Sumter 11-12 yearold O’Zone all-star baseball team found that out the hard way on Saturday when Haughton, La., pitcher Jathon Patton connected on a 3-run home run in the bottom of the sixth inning to lead his squad to a 7-4 victory at

Kim West, the mother of Jason Robertson, said her son didn’t want to go to Disney World or meet a rock star when dealing with the cancer that would eventually take his life. Rather, he just wanted to go hunting and fishing. She got in touch with The Outdoor Dream Foundation and the organization put together several trips for Jason before his passing. “I just know the memories I had from the videos of my son on the hunt and watching him for a

little while,” West said of the ODF cause. “And when these children get to go on these, they don’t have to worry about the chemo, they don’t have to remember they’re dying, they don’t have to talk to a doctor, and they don’t have to be in the hospital or be sick. “We don’t even talk about the sickness; we just have fun and laugh,” West said. “They get to forget and then later the parents have the memories.” Robertson died in 2011 at the age of 26. Before his death, he was able to enjoy his favorite outdoor activities with the help of the ODF, a nonprofit organization based in Anderson that provides outdoor adventures for youths diagnosed with terminal or lifethreatening illnesses. Former Atlanta Braves first baseman Sid Bream didn’t really become famous until one play during the 1992 National League Championship Series against the Pittsburgh Pirates changed everything. He said that opportunity allowed him to have a platform to help share a special moment with the children of the ODF. Bream was a part of what is considered to be one of the most exciting plays in Major League baseball history, beating a throw from Pirates leftfielder Barry Bonds PHOTOS AND ILLUSTRATION BY MICHAEL CHRISTOPHER / THE ITEM to score the winning run in the bottom of Jason Robertson passed away in 2011 after a battle with the ninth inning, allowing the Braves to adcancer.

Angels open WS with 10-0 shutout FROM STAFF REPORTS ALEXANDRIA, La. – Head coach Wayne Elmore had some concerns for his team entering Saturday’s opening game of the Dixie X-Play Angels World Series. The team hadn’t really ELMORE practiced since Tuesday, opting instead for an excursion to

meet some of the members of A&E’s “Duck Dynasty” on Thursday. “We wanted to reward the girls,” Elmore said. “They had a great time. I was just worried about them being a little off with their timing at the plate when we finally hit the field.” His worries were soon put to rest though, as Sumter pounded Halifax (Va.)

Yankees, MLB refuse to meet with Rodriguez ROB MAADDI & RONALD BLUM The Associated Press NEW YORK— Major League Baseball and the New York Yankees turned down requests Saturday to meet with Alex Rodriguez’s camp and the union about the embattled star’s expected drug penalty, two people familiar with the talks told The Associated Press. The overtures were made two days before MLB was poised to hand Rodriguez a lengthy suspension for his part in the Biogenesis case. RODRIGUEZ The two people spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because no public statements were authorized. Rodriguez, meanwhile, was in Trenton, N.J., playing what could be his last game in a while. He drew four straight walks and scored a run while on a minor league rehabilitation assignment with the Double-A Thunder. He was scheduled to be off Sunday. The All-Star third baseman said Friday night the Yankees’ tentative plan was for him to join them in Chicago for Monday night’s game against the White Sox. Before Rodriguez took the field, his side reached out to the Yankees and union head Michael Weiner contacted MLB Executive Vice President Rob Manfred. The Yankees and MLB said they had no interest in such talks. There was always the chance, however, that further negotiations could take place at the last minute. The New York Post, Daily News and New York Times reported the discussions earlier Saturday. There hasn’t been any definite word on the severity of Rodriguez’s looming penalty, with speculation ranging from a lifetime ban to a suspension through the 2014 season.

GOLDEN from Page B1 He said he is battling a senior for a starting nod. Golden did not participate in spring camp because he wasn’t at the school yet, but defensive line coach Austin Flyger said he’s seen film of him. “We saw a kid that was very explosive and can do a lot of things,” Flyger said. “We’ll move him around. He’s going to do a lot of different things, stunt-wise and straight up.”

ANGELS from Page B1 quickly erase last season’s 0-2 showing in the World Series from their memory. Sumter will face the winner between Arkansas state champion Broken Bow, Okla., and Louisiana state champion East Quachita South today at 7 p.m. today. “The girls really came out aggressive at the plate,” Elmore said. “They set the tone early in that first inning. We only scored two runs, but everything was hard hit.” Madison Elmore tripled and scored on Madison Truett’s sacrifice fly to put Sumter up 1-0. Kailin Hodge then doubled and scored on an Ellie Hunter groundout. Sumter starting pitcher Morgan Berry faced her first and only real jam in the bottom of the first. After allowing two walks sandwiched around her only hit, a 6-4-3 double play ended the threat. “I think that was big,” Coach Elmore said. “It

Patton also wound up being the winning pitcher. “He’s a big tall lefty and he was able to pitch well and not give up too much damage,” Holladay said. Trent Frye took the loss for Sumter, going the distance in the loss. Tucker Chapman led off the game with a home run for Sumter and Micah Yates had an RBI single.

DIXIE BOYS from Page B1 Talley had a big game on the mound for Sumter, throwing a complete game. In five innings, Talley allowed just two hits and one earned run. He struck out eight while walking just two. “Drew really threw well all day,” Coach Price said. “The only runs they (McNairy County) got were off of a couple of errors we made in the field. He just threw the ball well and was able to throw his curve for strikes.” Coach Price said either Ryan Touchberry or Dawson Price would start on the mound for Sumter today.

Golden has been following the team’s offseason conditioning regimen. “Our strength and conditioning coach is very pleased with the way he approaches his business,” Flyger said. Last year Golden had 28 tackles and two sacks in eight games, according to the National Junior College Athletic Association online site.

Uggla’s RBI grounder lifts Braves past Phillies in 12 BY AARON BRACY The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA — The red-hot Atlanta Braves found a different way to continue their winning streak: good, old-fashioned hustle. Dan Uggla had a tiebreaking RBI grounder in the 12th, the Atlanta bullpen pitched 5 2-3 scoreless innings and the Braves beat the UGGLA slumping Philadelphia Phillies 5-4 on Saturday night for their ninth straight win. Luis Avilan (4-0), one of seven Atlanta pitchers, threw a scoreless 11th inning to earn the win and Craig Kimbrel got the last three outs for his 33rd save in 36 chances as the Braves won for the 11th time in 13 games. Phillies left-hander Jake Diekman (0-2) pitched a perfect 11th but ran into trouble in the 12th. Justin Upton walked leading off and went to second on Freddie Freeman’s groundout. After an intentional walk to Evan Gattis, Diekman walked Paul Janish, a career .215 hitter, on four pitches to load the bases. Justin De Fratus replaced Diekman and Uggla hit a bounding ball to short that looked

like it could be a double play, but Uggla was safe at first when Chase Utley’s relay pulled an extended Kevin Frandsen off the bag. Utley withstood a strong takeout slide from Janish, who made contact with the Philadelphia second baseman. “Unnoticed by a lot of people is the way Janish went into second against Utley,” Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “If you go in tiptoeing there, Utley gets a clean look.” Said Janish, “The ball was hit slow enough and I was able to disrupt the play. Fortunately, it helped us win

the game.” Gonzalez also credited Uggla for his effort on the play. “Uggla really busted it down the line,” he said. “The winning run came on a double-play ball, but our two runners made a difference.” John Mayberry Jr. homered for Philadelphia, which has lost four in a row and 12 of 13. “Obviously, this is very frustrating,” Mayberry said. “It can flip and come back around just as easily. We’re going to remain confident until the end.” The Phillies did threaten in the 12th off

Dodgers set club mark with 13th straight road victory CHICAGO — Chris Capuano scattered six hits over 6 1-3 innings and the Los Angeles Dodgers set a team record with their 13th straight road win, 3-0 over the Chicago Cubs on Saturday. The Dodgers, who haven’t lost on the road since July 6 in San Francisco, eclipsed the 1924 mark set by the Brooklyn Robins. CAPUANO Carl Crawford broke open a 1-0 game by driving in two runs with a single in the sixth inning. Jerry Hairston Jr. singled in the first run in the third for NL West-leading Los Angeles, which is 13-2 since the All-Star break and has won 30 of its last 37 overall. Capuano (4-6) came up with his second straight strong start and third in his last four. He struck out five and walked only one before four Dodgers relievers closed it out. Kenley Jansen pitched a perfect ninth to earn his 16th save in 19 chances. Jeff Samardzija (6-10) allowed three runs over six innings in Chicago’s third straight loss. He gave up seven hits, five walks and hit a batter, but was able to get out of jams with nine strikeouts. Dodgers rookie Yasiel Puig had a pair of singles and scored a run. He has hit safely in 12 of his last 14 games, including seven multi-hit games during that span. Puig made a diving catch on Starlin Castro’s line drive into the gap with one out in seventh and a Chicago runner on second to preserve the shutout. He left the game after the inning.

CINCINNATI — Devin Mesoraco drove in three runs with a pair of homers, and the Cincinnati Reds finally broke out against a St. Louis team that has held them down all season, beating the Cardinals 8-3 on Saturday night.

BOSTON — Jake Peavy allowed four hits in seven-plus innings to lead the Red Sox to a 5-2 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday night, winning his first start since coming to Boston at the trade deadline. Peavy (8-5) struck out seven and walked two, giving up Paul Goldschmidt’s homer in the fourth and leaving with a 3-1 lead after a leadoff single in the eighth. He walked slowly from the mound as the crowd rose to a standing ovation, tipping his cap to the fans while crossing the firstbase line on his way to the dugout.

Bream said of the play that changed his life. “Without Francisco coming through and getting that base hit, it’s a moot point. “I’m fortunate (Atlanta manager) Bobby Cox didn’t put in a pinch runner for me, which he should have, and today I’m able to be here,” he said. “Otherwise, I’m going into obscurity like most ball players and I wouldn’t have had this opportunity.” Bream was the featured speaker and guest at this weekend’s 2nd annual Jason Robertson Memorial Celebration on Friday and Skeet Shoot on Saturday to help raise money for The Outdoor Dream Foundation. Friday’s auction included several pieces of sports memorabilia, including footballs autographed by current and former University of South Carolina football players, and a framed photograph of “The Slide” signed by Bream, as well as various outdoors items to help raise funds. Bream got involved with the ODF about two years ago when he went on a hunt with a young man named Wyatt, who suffered from a brain tumor and was confined to a wheelchair. The former Brave said he could see the adrenaline running through the young man when he went on a deer and alligator hunt before his passing. “If you had the opportunity to see the smile and excitement that I did on that young man’s face like I did, you too would be standing up here with a lot of emotion,” Bream said. Last year’s inaugural event raised $7,000 for the foundation and since its inception in 2004, more than 300 kids have been able to go on outdoor trips all over the country. West, who said the memorial will continue to be held the first weekend in August every year, has a motto she continues to use to help remind her why this organization is important. “My motto is ‘Give like they want to live,’ ” she said.

Brett Brawdy of Anderson just recently lost his son, Brandon, who was diagnosed with desmoplastic small round cell tumor at the age of 14. Brandon was expected to live just three months, but fought for a year and half before passing at the age of 16. A celebration and benefit will be held in September in Anderson for Brawdy. “Brandon would go through his chemo and radiation and what pulled him through it is knowing as soon as he got out of the hospital we’re on a way to a different hunt or fishing trip,” Brawdy said. “I honestly believe that’s what kept his head in it the longest.” Brawdy has been instrumental in helping terminally ill children as his son was the first to hunt under a new Georgia law that allows sick and terminally ill kids to go hunting early. Here in South Carolina, Brawdy pushed to make September Golden September Cancer Awareness month. The bill hit the floor the day Brandon passed away, but Brett was able to read it to his son. “There is a stigma that comes with childhood cancer,” he explained. “People don’t want to think about it, they don’t want to hear about it or that their kids are going to be affected by it. “I use the term ignorant all the time; I was ignorant until my son got cancer,” he said. “I didn’t want to hear about it, I was scared of it. And I think with different organizations like these, people are still scared and a lot of the news (media) doesn’t want to report about it. The media doesn’t report about it, but it’s slowly starting to change.” To get more information on the ODF, visit its website at www.outdoordream.org or you can search on Facebook under The Outdoor Dream Foundation.

Woods up by 7 at Bridgestone BY RUSTY MILLER The Associated Press

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Tom Pernice Jr. follows a putt on the 18th hole during the second round of the 3M Players Championship at TPC Twin Cities golf course Saturday in Blaine, Minn. Pernice leads by two strokes.

Pernice Jr. leads 3M Championship BLAINE, Minn. — One good putt saved the day for Tom Pernice Jr. Pernice moved into position Saturday for his second Champions Tour title, shooting a 7-under 65 to take a two-stroke lead over Tom Kite in the 3M Championship. He had a 13-under 131 total at the TPC Twin Cities after opening with a 66. The two-time PGA Tour winner had four straight birdies on the front nine, and added two more on Nos. 10 and 12. However, his approach shot on the par-4 14th buried in the bank of a hazard in front of the green. After a drop in the fairway, his next shot landed about 40 feet short of the hole. Likely facing a double bogey at best, Pernice instead curled in the long putt. Playing in the tournament for the first time, the 53-year-old Pernice will likely need to shoot a similar score Sunday to win his first tour event since the 2009 SAS Championship. He has been close this year, with two second-place finishes and three thirds in his 14 previous starts. The 63-year-old Kite, trying to become the oldest winner in the history of the 50-and-over tour, also shot 65 — his lowest score at the course in five years. He birdied No. 2 and finished his front nine by going eagle-birdie-birdie to get to 9 under, and birdied Nos. 11 and 18, missing a 25foot eagle putt on the finishing hole by less than a foot. WOODLAND LEADS RENO-TAHOE

RENO, Nev. — Gary Woodland holed from a bunker and the greenside rough and hit a fairway shot within 2 inches for another of his seven birdies to take the thirdround lead in the RenoTahoe Open with 37 points in the modified Stableford scoring system. Brandon Steele vaulted into second place Saturday with 30 points. He played the last six holes in 7-under par under a traditional format, capping five consecutive birdies with a 33-foot chip-in for eagle on the 616-yard 18th at Montreux Golf Club. The scoring system awards eight points for eagle, five for eagle, two for birdie, zero for par,

minus-one for bogey and minus-three for double-bogey or worse. David Mathis was third with 29, followed by second-round leader Andres Romero at 27, Charlie Wi at 25, Dickey Pride 24 and Rory Sabbatini 23. ODEN SIGNS WITH HEAT

MIAMI — Greg Oden still needs some time to get ready for the rigors of playing in the NBA. He no longer needs a new team, however. The former No. 1 overall draft pick has chosen to sign with the two-time defending NBA champion Miami Heat, ending months of suspense over where the center whose career has been decimated by a series of knee problems would be attempting his comeback. The Heat were long perceived as the frontrunners to land Oden, and now have a 7-footer to help them try for a third straight title. METS PLACE WRIGHT ON DL

NEW YORK — David Wright walked slowly back into the New York Mets clubhouse after most of his teammates were already gone and discussed a topic as foreign to him as any — watching games instead of playing in them. That is the new reality for the All-Star third baseman and team captain, at least for the next 3 to 5 weeks, because a hamstring injury sustained Friday night has relegated him to being a spectator. Wright was dealing with a sore hamstring for about a week, but decided to play through it at Washington and Miami. He believed it was more of a cramp than anything serious, trusting he knew the difference between being hurt and being injured. GIRARDI GIVES JETER 2 DAYS OFF

SAN DIEGO — Yankees manager Joe Girardi is giving shortstop Derek Jeter two games off to rest his sore right leg. Girardi says Jeter has been battling a calf injury. The manager doesn’t know if the injury came about because of a strained right quadriceps that landed Jeter on the disabled list from July 12 until being activated last Sunday.

AKRON, Ohio — With an elite field chasing the lead, Tiger Woods decided to play keep-away. Already up by a staggering seven shots through 36 holes thanks to a career-tying best of 61 in the second round, Woods shot a solid 2-under 68 on Saturday in the Bridgestone Invitational to maintain that same seven-stroke lead. It was as if he was turning around and daring the world’s best players to come after him. No one really could. “You know, today was a day that I didn’t quite have it,” said Woods, who was at 15-under 195. “But I scored. And that’s the name of the game, posting a number, and I did today. I grinded my way around that golf course.” Now he’s only 18 holes away from making even more history in a career of historic accomplishments. He’ll be competing against the record book as much as the elite field. “It’s kind of tough to pick up seven or eight shots on Tiger around here,” said Henrik Stenson, a distant second after a 67. “It would take something spectacular on my behalf or any of

the other guys around me, and obviously a very, very poor round for him.” Woods, by the way, is 41-2 when leading after 54 holes in a PGA Tour event. A victory would be his eighth at Firestone Country Club and in the Bridgestone and its forerunner, the NEC Invitational. That would match the tour-record eight he already has at Bay Hill and the eight wins Sam Snead had at the Greater Greensboro Open. Woods also could capture his 79th victory on the PGA Tour, drawing him within three of Snead’s record of 82. “I’ll just go out there and execute my game

ment or any tournament with a win under your belt, it’s nice,” Woods said. “It validates what you’re working on and you have some nice momentum going in there.” Of course, Woods has failed to win his last 17 major championships. No longer is it a lock that, with 14, he’ll surpass the mark of 18 by Jack Nicklaus. Woods began the third round with a seven-shot lead after rounds of 66 and the career-best 61 — the fourth time he has gone that low, also matching the tournament record originally set by Jose Maria Olazabal in 1990.

Wind suspends 3rd round at St. Andrews BY DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — Inbee Park wanted tough conditions at St. Andrews to try to make up an eight-shot deficit in her pursuit of a fourth straight major. It turned out to be too tough for anyone. The third round of the Women’s BritCHOI ish Open was suspended Saturday by gusts that topped 40 mph and kept golf balls from staying put on the greens. After waiting six hours for the wind to calm, players were told to return Sunday morning for a marathon finish. Whether that becomes a huge break for the leaders — Na Yeon Choi at 10-under 134 was an hour away from teeing off — won’t be known until Sunday. “It’s still going to be windy tomorrow — not, hopefully, as windy as it’s been today, but there’s no letup in it,” said Susan Simpson, head of operations for the Ladies Golf Union. “It’s still going to be very breezy and equally difficult conditions.”

How difficult? Nine players who completed the third round had an average score of 78.2. Cristie Kerr and Lydia Ko each had a 75, the best of those who finished. Rikako Morita shot 86. The cumulative nine-hole scores for the 20 players who at least made the turn was 54-over par. There were 508 holes played, and only 26 birdies. Park is trying to become the first golfer, male or female, to win four straight professional majors in the same season. Her hope was for a steady round in raging wind and for the leading players to lose ground. Park was 1 under through four holes, making a 30-foot birdie putt at No. 3. But it was her par on the fourth hole that helped make officials realize it was time to stop. The ball moved from its position from a gust, and Park called for a ruling to make sure she could replace it as long as she didn’t address the ball. Simpson said it wasn’t Park’s ruling alone. “The time frame for the balls actually moving was very short,” Simpson said. “We got five calls, all in the space of a few minutes. ... So I can’t actually say which one

was the last one that made the difference because it all happened so quickly. There was a gust of almost 40 mph, and with that singular gust, all the balls started to move on the five calls that we had. And we suspended play immediately.” The most impressive round belonged to Anna Nordqvist, who was 1 under through 15 holes. Danielle Kang was even through 11 holes. Everyone was to return at 6:15 a.m. Sunday to resume the third round. That means the last group of Choi and Miki Saiki is expected to tee off about 7:30 a.m. The draw will not change for the final round — players will head right back out, and if everything goes according to plan, the Women’s British Open should finish around 6 p.m. Choi had a one-shot lead over Saiki. Morgan Pressel was another shot behind. Most of the trouble was around the loop — Nos. 7-11 on the far end of the Old Course that is exposed to the elements. Simpson said the wind reached a sustained speed of 30 mph, and during the suspensions, one gust was recorded at 50 mph.

We’ll see what I do tomorrow.” Unlike in a secondround 61 that could easily have been a 59 or even lower, Woods didn’t recover from all of his errant shots. He bogeyed the ninth, 14th and 16th holes, failing to bounce back from wayward shots. Yet he still was good enough to put himself in position for yet another lopsided victory, one that will likely mark him as the player to beat next week in the PGA Championship at Oak Hill. “Any time you can go into a major tourna-

Thompson sharing faith, wisdom with teammates BY DARRYL SLATER Post and Courier COLUMBIA – Up on stage, the 10-piece band with four guitarists filled the cavernous church hall with Christian rock songs, their lyrics projected on a 15-foot screen. Shandon Baptist Church was nearly packed last Sunday morning, about 500 worshippers between the floor and balcony of the sprawling, modern brick building. Everybody stood. “Into the darkness you shine, out of the ashes we rise,� the band sang. At the center of the floor, about halfway back in the congregation, Dylan Thompson locked his eyes on the screen, which flashed the chorus to another song: “Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.� Thompson sang the words quietly, gently clapping his hands and tapping his hand on the pew in front of him. Thompson wore jeans, an untucked plaid button-down shirt and flip flops – just fine for the casual service. He looked comfortable. He felt at peace. Thompson, South Carolina’s junior quarterback, tries to attend Shandon Baptist every Sunday. After USC returned at 5 a.m. from an October trip to LSU, Thompson was at church the next morning. When he didn’t fall asleep until 4 a.m. following his career-changing performance in November at Clemson, he made that service, too. He used to come here and go through the motions, trying to ignore the gnawing guilt about how he spent the rest of

his weekend, hanging out at bars and picking up women. But since the spring of his first year at USC, he has put his religious faith first in his life. He shares his faith with teammates, three of whom joined him on this Sunday at church: left guard A.J. Cann, receiver Damiere Byrd and safety T.J. Gurley. He writes about it frequently on his Twitter account, which has more than 21,000 followers – a number that ballooned when he came off the bench and led USC to a win over Clemson, and then threw the game-winning touchdown pass in the Outback Bowl against Michigan. In two games, he transformed from an unrecognized, lightly recruited backup to a face of USC’s program, a role he at once embraces and tries to deflect. “Don’t follow me,� he wrote in his Twitter bio. “Follow Jesus.� When the band finished, the congregation sat. Thompson opened his Bible on his lap. The minister, Frank Shimkus, began his sermon, about Jesus offering freedom from the humiliation of all sins. Thompson scribbled notes on the back of his bulletin. “Every sin we have ever committed, every sin we will ever commit,� he wrote. Shimkus preached about getting value from your life, and mentioned a verse from First Corinthians. Thompson flipped to it and underlined: “The fire will test the quality of each person’s work. If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward.� By the end of the sermon,

PHOTO COURTESY OF THE STATE

South Carolina quarterback Dylan Thompson (17) changes the play at the line of scrimmage in last year’s 27-17 victory over Clemson at Memorial Stadium in Clemson. Thompson has not been shy about sharing his passion for Jesus Christ with his teammates.

He redshirted his first season, so he was anonymous to most people at bars. He said he never got drunk, but thrived at picking up girls. He capitalized on his status as a handsome football player, and bounced from hookup to hookup, letting his hormones guide him. He enjoyed himself, but inevitably felt uncomfortable, like a phony. “In my heart, I knew what I was doing was completely wrong,� he said. “Honestly, that didn’t really affect me. I didn’t change as a person. I was kind of covering it up. I’m thinking in my head, ‘No one knows who Dylan Thompson is.’ I took full advantage of that.� His guilt festered. He worried people would find out about his double standards. Then he went to Shandon Bap-

Thompson had a page of notes. Near the bottom, he wrote: “What could you do today that could last for eternity? Use my life and max it out for eternity.� HEARING HIS CALLING

Thompson stayed out of trouble as a kid. He grew up regularly attending church with his parents in Boiling Springs, near Spartanburg. His mother, Tammy, so closely monitored his behavior that she calls herself “a helicopter mom.� But like most kids, Thompson focused on his own goals – becoming a college football or basketball player, and needing to have the latest, expensive pair of sneakers. He lived for himself when he arrived at USC in 2010. He still attended church and said “God bless� to friends. He also reveled in newfound freedom.

tist alone in April of 2011. In a moment he credits to divine intervention, a Bible verse from the sermon caught his ear – Matthew 7:21. “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven. But only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.� That’s me, Thompson thought. His stomach knotted with nerves. After the service, he sat by himself in his dorm room and cried for three hours. “I prayed to Jesus that he would come into my heart and save me from my sin and everything I had been doing that was covered up,� Thompson said. “I just had enough of it. That’s somebody’s daughter, and most importantly, that’s a child of God that you’re just taking advantage of.�

Clemson still has work to do going into 2013 season BY SCOTT KEEPFER Greenville News CLEMSON — When the Clemson football team opens fall practice this weekend, the Tigers will do so with an elevated sense of urgency. High expectations – fueled by an 11-2 season, a Chick-fil-A Bowl victory against LSU and a plethora of returning players – abound in the Clemson camp, and players, coaches and fans alike are anticipating another memorable fall. With a season-opening showdown against Georgia looming Aug. 31, it’s imperative that several important questions be answered over the next few weeks. Foremost among them: 1. Will “Hot Rod� shift into overdrive? Sumter native Roderick “Hot Rod� McDowell is the odds-on favorite to replace Andre Ellington, primarily because he has the most experience and is coming off a season as Ellington’s back-up in which he scored almost as many touchdowns as Ellington in limited playing time. McDowell scored five touchdowns last season (Ellington had eight) on just 83 rushing attempts. McDowell almost could be referred to as Ellington II. “They’re similar athletically,� running backs coach Tony Elliott said. Several others will be attempt to impress the coaches this fall, including junior D.J. Howard and sophomore Zac Brooks. Freshmen Tyshon Dye and Wayne Gallman also are expected to get plenty of chances in camp, but McDowell enters as the odds-on favorite.

“Hot Rod is where it starts for us,� coach Dabo Swinney said. 2. Will Sammy Watkins have the impact he had as a freshman phenom? Sammy wasn’t Sammy last season. A two-game suspension to open the season, followed by missed time because of illness and injury, resulted in the game-breaking receiver playing in essentially only seven games. His 57 catches for 708 yards and three touchdowns would rank as a solid if not spectacular season for most receivers, yet everyone knows he’s capable of much more. “I’m expecting him to have his best year yet, and there’s no reason he can’t,� offensive coordinator Chad Morris said. Watkins had 12 touchdown catches as a freshman and may be primed for a repeat performance as a junior. “Sammy looks more lean than he’s looked,� Morris said. “We’ve got to have the Sammy Watkins who can come in there and play, and play a substantial amount of time. I can’t have him come in there and play six plays and have to come out because he’s tired.� 3. Who will emerge as the primary complement to Sammy Watkins? Camp will help reveal the serious players in auditions for Sammy’s back-up band. Steady Adam Humphries may have more passes headed his way than in his first two seasons, but the same can be said for Charone Peak and Martavis Bryant. Peake, who like Humphries is a former

Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd hands the ball off to Sumter native Roderick ‘Hot Rod’ McDowell, who is expected to be the Tigers’ top running back this year.

Dorman High standout, possesses immense talent, but it’s time for him to show it. “It’s his time, it’s his turn,� Morris said. “Charone is a guy we feel like is on track to have a great year.� Bryant has flashed big-play capability; now he has to flash every-

down ability. “Martavis has been working hard,� Morris said. “He’ll definitely be counted into the equation.� Germone Hopper and Matt Porter give the Tigers more-than-capable receivers, but Morris also expects to see one or two of the incoming fresh-

men contribute, most notably rangy rookies Mike Williams, who’s 6-foot-5, and Kyrin Priester, who’s 6-2. “You kind of think one of those guys may have to play,� Morris said. Expect Morris to find out who that might be over the next few weeks. 4. Who will step out from a sudden abundance of talent in the secondary? This spring, the Tigers barely had enough healthy bodies in the secondary to conduct an adequate scrimmage. This fall new defensive backs coach Mike Reed will be hard pressed to get everyone substantial playing time. Martin Jenkins is back after missing last season. Darius Robinson is back after an injury sidelined him for about half the year. And Bashaud Breeland re-

turns after being banged up throughout the season. They’ll join an equation that includes potential star Travis Blanks, the suddenly experienced Garry Peters and Robert Smith, and eight freshmen. “We have some pieces there,� Swinney said. “We’re going to be better. I’m anxious to evaluate some of the young guys and see who’s going to be able to step in and help us. All bets are off.� 5. Will Clemson be prepared to stop the run from the get-go? Clemson’s run defense was suspect if not downright porous on occasion last season, but a youthful defensive front began to show signs of maturity later in the season, and improved numbers illustrated the unit’s growth.

Gordon clings to Chase spot as cutoff looms BY DAN GELSTON The Associated Press LONG POND, Pa. — Jeff Gordon made his last win at Pocono a family affair. It was a win to savor. His 86th career victory was the first time his wife and both of his two young children joined him in a Victory Lane celebration. But his Pocono run also thrust Gordon into wild-card contention for the Chase, and he finished 10th in the final standings. Fast forward a season. Gordon enters Pocono still looking for his first win of this season and hoping to hold on to his GORDON precarious 10th-place spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship standings. And, he again can make it another win to remember. Once the dominant “Rainbow Warrior,” Gordon turns 42 on Sunday, long removed from the era when he was always the driver to beat at any track. But the birthday boy still knows how to drive — and he hasn’t forgotten how to win. What he’s still chasing is that elusive fifth Cup championship, 11 years after he celebrated his last one. It’s what drives him as he’s changed from the driver who shot NASCAR into the mainstream and made it must-see TV into the sport’s elder statesman. Gordon would love to make another championship push in the No. 24 — as long as he can stay in the field. “This year has been a strange year for us,” Gordon said. “I feel like last year we showed a little bit more speed up to this point and I felt like all we needed were some breaks to go our way, and a few slight changes to get ourselves in. This year, we just can’t seem to really get ahold of it.” He needs to figure it out, fast.

Dallas, Miami get early NFL start BY BARRY WILNER The Associated Press CANTON, Ohio — The Miami Dolphins could be the only legitimate challenger to New England’s AFC East dominance. The Dallas Cowboys hope they will be a true threat in the NFC East, where both the defending division champion Redskins and the Giants are more highly regarded. For two teams with so many question marks heading toward the 2013 season, an extra exhibition game can’t be a terrible thing — provided no key players get hurt in Sunday night’s Hall of Fame game. Miami already has some injury concerns, with starting receivers Mike Wallace (groin) and Brian Hartline (left calf) hobbled in practice this week. Dallas quarterback Tony Romo had offseason surgery for a cyst on his back, and coach Jason Garrett has been close-mouthed on Romo’s availability for the lone game this weekend. Only Dallas and Miami will play five exhibitions this summer. Five things to look for in Dolphins vs. Cowboys: 1. WHERE ART THOU, ROMO?: After signing a huge contract (six years, $108 million with $55 million guaranteed), Romo is expected to step up his game and become one of the top few QBs in the league since he is being paid like one. Garrett won’t be putting him in any uncomfortable positions during the preseason, so it’s unlikely he’ll play against Miami. But even with a banged-up offensive line, the Cowboys must find out soon just how healthy their latest franchise quarterback is and how he reacts to taking a hit. And Romo is eager to be behind center as often as possible to work with a strong group of receivers led by Dez Bryant, Jason Witten and Miles Austin. “I think more than anything just getting back into it, getting the body to start, stop, go, quit, that football entails,” Romo said of the importance of practice and game action. 2. DION JORDAN’S ROLE: Miami traded up to the third spot in April’s draft to grab Oregon defensive end Dion Jordan with the idea he could be the Dolphins’ next Jason Taylor. Rookies, once they are signed, usually aren’t held back in the preseason, and Jordan could wind up on special teams, too. “That’s a huge part of our team,” coach Joe Philbin said. “We have the potential to be very, very good on special teams this year. Dion’s had an outstanding attitude toward special teams. To say he’s too valuable, absolutely not.” 3. CALLING THE PLAYS IN BIG D: That’s Bill Callahan’s responsibility this year after Garrett had that chore taken away; he says it was a team decision, but speculation is that owner Jerry Jones opted for the move. The reasoning was that Garrett could be more focused on overall game scenarios if he wasn’t telling Romo what play to run each snap.

Dallas tight end Jason Witten, top, and Miami defensive end Dion Jordan (95) will lead their teams when they open the NFL exhibition schedule playing in the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio.

An offensive line coach by trade — but a former head coach of the Raiders when they lost to Tampa Bay in the 2002 Super Bowl, and at Nebraska — Callahan is no novice. He held the offensive coordinator’s title last year, his first with Dallas, and now truly fits the role. 4. STEPPING IN FOR BUSH: Reggie Bush now is in Detroit, leaving Miami as a free agent. He’s never been the superstar projected when he came out of Southern Cal, but he’s been a playmaker and gained 986 yards rushing and 292 receiving and scored eight times for the Dolphins in 2012. His replacement could be second-year speedster Lamar Miller. Or it could be third-year man Daniel Thomas if he can stay healthy. Or rookie Mike Gillislee, a fifth-round pick. 5. NEW FACES: Both teams were very active in the offseason, and this game will provide an early look at some of those moves. Miami brought in Wallace, CB Brent Grimes, LBs Dannell Ellerbe and LB Philip Wheeler, TE Dustin Keller, WR Brandon Gibson and OT Tyson Clabo. Dallas’ key newcomer is defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin, who made his biggest splash with the Tampa Bay defense that won the 2002 championship and is switching the Cowboys to a 4-3 alignment.

Auto sales rise as small cars enjoy summer surge BY TOM KRISHER AND DEE-ANN DURBIN AP Auto Writers DETROIT — Pickup trucks may have led the charge, but strong sales of small cars in July showed demand for new vehicles is broad and not slowing down. Car sales grew in the first six months of this year, but not at the blistering pace of trucks and SUVs. Through June, fullsize pickups were up 22.5 percent over the year before, while cars were up just 5 percent. Last month, car sales took off. General Motors’ car sales jumped 24 percent. Sales of the Honda Civic small car were up 30 percent to 32,416, their best July in 13 years. Sales of the recently redesigned Ford Fiesta subcompact jumped 89 percent, while the Toyota Prius hybrid was up 40 percent. Part of the small car surge was seasonal. Small cars always sell better in the summer and then taper off as winter approaches. But it’s also an indication of the high level of demand from regular consumers, not just the contractors and other small businesses that helped fuel the truck boom. Christian Mayes, an auto analyst with Edward Jones in St. Louis, said truck sales will pick up even more in the fall. But he also expects car sales to remain strong through the rest of this year because short-term interest rates should stay low, keeping payments down. Also, automakers are introducing new cars at a brisk pace, and car buyers are finally replacing the old vehicles they kept through the Great Recession. “A lot of customers with their cars being 10 years old or older are looking to trade in and get something a little bit newer,’’ he said. GM, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota and Nissan all reported double-digit sales gains last month. Honda led the way with a 21 percent sales increase. Of major automakers, only Volkswagen had a down month. Its sales were off 3.3 percent as the top-selling Jetta

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A 2011 Toyota Camry LE sits on the lot at Kendall Toyota in Miami recently. General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota and Nissan all reported double-digit sales gains in July, clear signs that U.S. auto sales will remain strong into the second half of the year.

compact faltered. Industry sales rose 14 percent over last July to 1.3 million, according to Autodata Corp. On an annualized basis, the sales pace slowed slightly from June to 15.7 million. But that was still better than the annualized rate of 14 million from a year ago. The industry’s numbers for July come a day after the U.S. government reported strongerthan-expected growth for the April-June quarter. The consulting firm LMC Automotive said the improving economy could push this year’s sales to about 16 million. Sales last topped 16 million in 2007, just ahead of the recession. They bottomed out at a 30-year low of 10.4 million in 2009 and have been recovering ever since. Appealing new products should keep drawing buyers to dealer showrooms. GM’s new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups just went on sale, while Toyota said Thursday that production of its new Corolla small car has begun in Mississippi. Incentives such as rebates and low-interest loans are also helping sales. Car pricing site

SALES STATISTICS BY AUTOMAKER • GM said its July U.S. sales rose 16 percent to 234,071. Sales of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups combined rose 46 percent. Roughly 15 percent of the trucks sold were the new versions, which went on sale in June. Sales of the Cruze small car jumped 70 percent. • Ford sold 193,715 vehicles. Ford’s 11-percent increase was led by the F-Series pickup, with sales up 23 percent. Ford Fusion sedan sales dropped 12 percent as the company struggled to meet demand with its current production capacity. But Ford said more Fusions will be available this fall after it adds a shift to a Michigan plant. • Toyota’s sales rose 17 percent to 193,394. The Prius hybrid jumped 40 percent while the midsize Camry rose 16 percent to 34,780 and remained the country’s best-selling car. Lexus sales were up 38 percent on the strength of

the new IS sedan. • Honda’s sales jumped 21 percent to 141,439. The CR-V and Pilot SUVs both saw 32.5 percent gains. • Chrysler’s sales rose 11 percent to 140,102. Ram pickup sales rose 31 percent over a year ago, buoyed by the improving housing market. Jeep Grand Cherokee sales rose 30 percent, the SUV’s best July since 2005. • Nissan’s sales rose 11 percent to 109,041, a July record for the company. Sales of the Altima midsize car rose 11 percent, and sales of the redesigned Pathfinder SUV more than tripled. • Hyundai’s sales rose 6 percent to 66,005 on strong sales of the Santa Fe SUV and Elantra small car. • Subaru’s sales rose 43 percent to 35,994, with Forester sales up 52 percent.

Edmunds.com said incentives were up 10 percent in July over the same month last year, to an average of $2,463 per vehicle. Toyota had the biggest increase, with spending up 20 percent to an average of $1,945, Edmunds said. Edmunds senior analyst Jessica Caldwell said Camry incentives are at their highest level in two years as the sedan competes with newer rivals, such as the Nissan Altima. Overall, though, the discounts haven’t reduced prices. The average sale price of a vehicle last month held steady at

just over $31,000, according to the car buying site TrueCar. com. That’s because buyers are loading up on options like leather seats and navigation systems. For example, 32 percent of GMC Acadia buyers get the top-tier Denali trim level, which starts $11,900 above the base model and includes a rear seat entertainment system and a leather-wrapped mahogany steering wheel. The most popular color for the Buick Enclave is white diamond tricoat, a premium paint that costs $995 more.

here are many benefits to our community and to all of us who choose to shop locally. It is not always possible to purchase what we need and want here in our backyard, but we can at least think and try to find what we are looking for locally. Studies have shown that by buying local, more of your money is used to support other local businesses. The rule of thumb is that a dollar spent locally will circulate seven times before it leaves the community. Customer service is an important aspect for me. Shopping local where people know you helps ensure that you receive the service you deserve for the money you spend. Where we shop, eat and have fun is what makes our community home. Our local businesses are an integral part of the character of Sumter. Keeping our treasure in our community gives us a sense of place, not just anyplace. By shopping local, we are preserving and creating more jobs in the small-business sector of our community. Our family, friends and neighbors are quite possibly employees of a small business. Small businesses are the largest employer nationally. This translates into higher per-capita income and a bigger tax base in order to reduce the burden on everyone and continue to heighten our economic base. The more we try to reinvest in our own community, the better off all of us are as well as our businesses. When shopping locally, you simultaneously create jobs, fund more community services through sales tax, invest in neighborhood improvement and promote community development. For more information on finding a particular business, product or service, contact the chamber office at (803) 775-1231 or email us at chamber@ sumterchamber.com.

Lee County event recognizes media The Item’s Randy Burns and Gee Atkinson of the Lee County Observer were recognized recently for their work during the Lee County Media Recognition Banquet. The “Honoring Positive Press” event held at the Lee County Opera House was sponsored by the Lee

County Male Involvement Inc. Both Burns and Atkinson were presented plaques by the group and local community activist Hannah Hickmon. Lee County Council Chairman Travis Windham also recognized the two for their coverage of the community. Guest speaker for the event was James Mickle, a deputy with the Fulton

County Sheriff ’s Office in Atlanta. A native of Winston-Salem, N.C., Mickle spoke about the similarities between law enforcement and media. Mickle’s supervisor, a judge and two others were killed in the Atlanta Courthouse shooting in 2005. A news reporter also was abducted during that incident.

t took a little push from his wife to get Kerry Hallam to try making art with a scroll saw. Her efforts have paid off, as Hallam has won many awards for his work, including top prize in Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts magazine’s 2013 Best Project Design Contest for his fretwork wildlife portrait titled “Precious Love.” Once he got started with the woodworking craft, he has hardly slowed down. Hallam grew up around art, but had never done any serious work himself. “My dad was an artist, and when I was growing up, I’d watch him drawing. I did some stuff during school but never really got back into it,” he said. A 2005 Christmas present from his wife Cathy was the impetus for Hallam’s adoption of what has become an avocation. “There was a (scroll) saw on sale at Lowe’s and my wife bought it for me for Christmas with the thought I’d get out there and try something different from the woodworking I was doing,” he said. “It was something I wanted to try but never got around to. The saw sat in my shed for almost a year before I did anything with it. And then I just went out there one day and took a pattern out of a book and tried it, and did a couple more, and I said ‘I can do my own patterns.’ “I sold a couple (made from others’ patterns) at the Sumter Crafters Fair in the old exhibition center,” he said, “and then I went ahead and started making my own.” A few of his own patterns later, Hallam was winning prizes at the Sumter County and South Carolina State fairs, and he was hooked. “My first original was that jaguar,” he said recently, pointing to the piece hanging on the wall in his den. “It was based on a photograph taken by a woman on a safari.” Hallam specializes in scrolling wildlife, religious figures and celebrities. His prize-winning “Precious Love” is a zebra mother and her foal. “It’s a photograph that somebody took,” he said. “It just struck me.” A leopard was based on a photo by a youth pastor in Africa, and several of his works hang in his church, First Assembly of God on Alice Drive, where he took his saw and demonstrated the scrolling process. “They’ve got one I did of Christ coming out of his tomb, and I’m working on the Ten Commandments,” he said. Many others hang on the wall, several with prize ribbons hanging on them. The room is also filled with furniture pieces he has made. Hallam said he often searches the Internet for photos he can use as the basis for his scroll saw woodworking. “When I find one I think I can do something with, I contact the photographer to ask for permission to use it,” he said. “There’s a story behind every one of them.”

Scroll saw artist Kerry Hallam shows how he uses a computer program to design his work.

“There’s a couple of ways you can make a pattern,” Hallam explained. “I use (a computer program called) Paint Job Pro. It allows me to change the contrast and brightness and manipulate the photo in other ways. I like to add a lot of detail, so I actually go in and hand draw.” He got out his computer tablet and demonstrated on an owl photo the way he downloads and manipulates images. Hallam’s Viking design, a prize winner at a recent S.C. State Fair, is based on a photograph taken at a historical reenactment. Comparing the original photo to Hallam’s design, it’s immediately noticeable that the Viking’s facial expression and beard have been changed. “I actually changed his beard three or four times before I settled on my pattern,” he said. “It took about 35 hours to do the Viking,” Hallam said. “You have to take the blade in and out for each cut, and there are more than 300 in that one, in the fretwork of the chain mail alone.” Hallam pointed to the chain mall, noting its intricacy. “Actually, I almost threw that one out in the yard,” he said, laughing. “And he ended up winning best fretwork at the state fair.” Scroll saws were intended originally for cabinet work, Hallam said. He uses mainly baltic birch or oak for his pieces, each about oneeighth inch thick. Like a printmaker, Hallam limits the number of images he makes of each subject. “The most I’ll make of any one is four or five,” he said. “I tell people that, and I tell them where SEE HALLAM, PAGE C4

The city spent $10,500 on the land and materials, while the labor and some of the materials furnished by the WPA cost approximately $13,500. The park is one of the finest in the entire South. This spring the Brooklyn Dodgers and Detroit Tigers will play an exhibition game in the park, while late in the summer the American Legion sectional tournament will be brought here, giving the fans the opportunity of seeing some of the finest young players in the country perform.

Simple steps on a journey to better health BY CATHERINE BLUMBERG SCAL Assistant Director

“I

t’s been a journey, and the journey has been good. It’s amazing,” Vickey Haynesworth said in reference to her year-long experience with the Sumter County On The Move! (SCOTM!) walking program sponsored by the University of South Carolina Prevention Research Center and Sumter County Active Lifestyles. She says this because she feels better and walks faster, and her blood pressure is better than it has been in a long time. Achieving these health improvements wasn’t too difficult for Vickey, as she made some simple lifestyle changes: She walked with a buddy and replaced sweet snacks with fruit. Other SCOTM! participants are having amazing journeys, as well, although their approach and motivations vary. Paula Stover likes being a member of a research program and says, “I don’t want to let anyone down. They are depending on

me to do my part.” She is also enjoying using technology: smart phone apps Mapmywalk.com and Myfitnesspal.com. SCOTM! has helped Ann Bryant lose 21 pounds. Like Paula, some of her motivation to walk and eat more nutritious foods came from feeling accountable to the program. “I was weighed and measured when I started the program,” Ann said, “and I knew I would be going through that process two more times. I wanted to do well, partially for the sake of the research program. It turned out to be fun, and I plan to continue walking and watching what I eat.” Angela Tidwell lost 13 pounds this past

year by changing her diet and walking one or two days a week. “In the past, I ate fried, greasy food and consumed sweet drinks,” she said. “They sent my stomach into orbit. I cut those foods out and added more fruits and vegetables, but I occasionally treat myself to some of my favorites, such as blackberry jelly. It’s all worth it because I feel so much better.” Improved blood pressure seems to be one of the most common results for SCOTM! members. Through walking and healthier eating, Deborah Moses, Deborah Graham, Cheryl Weeks and Mary Brooks have improved or maintained healthy blood pressures. Cheryl is

elated about getting off of her blood pressure medications and said, “I’ve graduated and I’m going to college, and I learned a lot along the way. I stopped walking for about four months, and my blood pressure wasn’t as well-controlled. So, I know through personal experience that exercise makes a huge difference in my life.” Mary Brooks says that not only has her blood pressure dropped to normal, but she also has enough energy to walk five to six days a week. She sleeps better and has lost weight, too. It’s been a win, win, win program for her. People joined SCOTM! for various reasons, and motivations to stay in the program were different. Denise Witherspoon’s greatest motivation to stay in was the opportunity to learn more about living a healthy lifestyle. She attended the SCOTM! Eating for a Healthy Life nutrition education session, and it changed her life. She said, “Before I went to

that class, the only vegetable I ate was corn. These days I eat sweet potatoes and collards. I cook with peppers and onions, and I love it all.” Through these examples, you can see that lives can be changed through simple exercise and a healthier lifestyle. Do you need to do more to stay healthy or get healthier? If so, start your journey today. Through the SCOTM! program, the University of South Carolina Prevention Research Center and Sumter County Active Lifestyles are researching if and how walking groups motivate and support group members to be more physically active and healthier. Although enrollment into the program ended, information and updates are available at www.SumterCountyMoves.org. Congratulations to these new SCOTM! Honor Roll members who recently completed their 12 months in the program and have made walking a regular lifestyle habit: David

Thrower, Angela Tidwell, Angela Flippin, Tiffany Wilder, Deborah Graham, Dalphus Burkett, Vickey Haynesworth, Claudette Witherspoon, Nancy Florence, Denise Witherspoon, Cheryl Weeks, Ann Bryant, Christina Lang, Yaw Boateng, Charlean Miller, Ruth Bennett, Percilla Buckman and Juanita Wilson. These SCOTM! members recently finished their first six months in the program: Edna Brown, Ashley Miller-Martin, Veronica Sharp, Mary Miller and Janice Oden. Sumter County Active Lifestyles (SCAL) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote health and quality of life in Sumter County by advocating for a community environment that supports physically active lifestyles for all citizens.

I realize how much she did for me as I have been learning how to be a house husband without a wife. My wife told me this was the first house she lived in that had a dishwasher. She was so proud of it! I could never understand why she would wash the dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. Now I have to do it myself, I understand why. My question is, is there a detergent that will actually CLEAN the dishes? Also, do you have any cute readers who would like to teach an old man how to clean house? FENDING FOR MYSELF DEAR FENDING — I’m sorry I can’t print your name or location because if

I did, you might be crushed in the stampede. If you and your late wife were married 20 or 30 years and the dishwasher was already installed in the house when you moved in, it is now practically an antique. Because you have tried several brands of detergent and your dishes aren’t getting clean, you probably need a new dishwasher. (And I do not mean a cute, young one.) DEAR ABBY — I am not happy. No matter what I do, I am filled with emptiness and loneliness every minute of every single day. Being near friends and family lifts my spirits, but only for a little while. Then I am reminded once more of my loneliness and emptiness. I feel like I am being consumed by misery, and I don’t want to feel like this anymore. Please tell me what to do. SEARCHING FOR HAPPINESS

DEAR SEARCHING FOR HAPPINESS — The feelings you describe can be symptoms of chronic depression, which is a treatable illness. That’s why I’m urging you to discuss them with a physician. A combination of medication and talk therapy can help you feel better again, so don’t put it off.

reflections

n 1901 the Sumter Training School was attempting to “give a practical and a theoretical course of instructions to young ladies desirous of learning the art of caring for the sick.” Those applying were required to be between the ages of 18 and 35, of at least average height and physique, and have a good education. Students reSammy ceived $5 per month WAY during first year and $10 per month in the second term. The money was to be used for textbooks and school expenses. Sumter profited from men like Neill O’Donnell, who “upon his death in March of 1937 left the greater part of his estate to Tuomey Hospital including funds and resources to have a school for nurses constructed near the hospital. This mod- O’DONNELL ern up-to-date facility will help provide our community with a constant supply of educated, efficient and competent nurses.” Information for this article was found while researching The Item archives, which describe the founding of the O’Donnell School for Nurses training and is being reprinted with minimal editing. “Built a cost of $45,612, and furnished at approximately $6,000, The Neill O’Donnell Memorial Residence for Nurses, was erected by the Tuomey Hospital in Sumter, South Carolina. It represents the realization of over four years of hope and effort. While it is entirely devoid of luxury, from the standpoint of construction, materials and furniture, practically everything has been provided for the comfort and convenience of both the student personnel and supervising staff. A bronze tablet at the main entrance perpetuates the memory of the late Neill O’Donnell, whose beneficiation made the building possible. “O’Donnell was a charter member of the board of trustees of Tuomey Hospital and treasurer for almost the entire time of its existence. Upon his death in March 1937 the greater part of his estate was left to the hospital. Sixteen thousand dollars was contributed by the Duke Endowment.

“The structure is of Rytt Ryttenberg ‘Airdale’ brick veneer, two stories high with a partial basement which is used as a trunk room and for hot water storage. In all there are 42 rooms in the building, 17 on the first floor, 24 on the second and one in the basement. The classification of rooms is as follows: Twenty-one double bedrooms; six single bedrooms; one general bathroom; one general lavatory and toilet room; two laundries; one kitchen; one trunk room; four sun porches; one private sitting room; one living room; one library; one auditorium and class room; one living room and one office. There are six general baths, seven semiprivate baths, 15 lavatories and 16 toilets. Each bathroom has a wall cabinet. Each semi-private room has two large closets and private rooms, one or two closets. Metal casement windows are installed throughout, the transoms provide for cross circulation of air. “The auditorium seats 75 persons comfortably and opening off it is a stage; making this section suitable for class night exercises and for parties and dances. The living room is large and cheerful, with ingle hooks and alcoves which provide facilities for small groups to gather in cozy semi-privacy. The beamed ceiling is attractive and with the open hearth lends an air of homeliness to the place. “The atmosphere of the library is conducive to rest and study. Book and magazine shelves are plentiful, light is plentiful and chairs are comfortable. Bathroom floors are of terrazzo and all others are of selected pine. Indirect lighting is used throughout. “Metal furniture is used in bedrooms, and in the living room and in the library it is upholstered. Sun porches are furnished in chrome and leatherette. Mr. C.W. Fant of Anderson, S.C. and J. Whitney Cunningham of Sumter were the architects and the Kahn Construction Company of Columbia, S.C. were the builders.” Classes were discontinued in 1967, and the building was later demolished during one of Tuomey’s expansions.

SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 2013

HALLAM from Page C1 I got it from, how many cuts are in each one.” Out in his workshop, Hallam works at his scroll saw, often accompanied by music from WMHK, a Christian radio station, in the background. He leans in to peer through a powerful, lighted magnifying glass at a tiny saw blade and his pattern. On this warm day last week, it was an image from an art nouveau poster that’s in the public domain. He demonstrated how he cuts out certain areas to produce the image. The tiny blade looks as if it could easily take off a digit, but Hallam said, with it, “You have less of a chance of cutting your finger than on a radial arm saw.” He demonstrated how he cuts out certain areas to produce the image. “When you cut it, the back forms ‘fuzzies’, so I take a little torch and burn it off,” he said. “I actually lay this flat and take a detail sander and sand it. You have to very, very carefully and slowly sand over everything on the back side. My wife says I’m trying to be too perfect, but I say you’re not buying them for the fuzziness.” Hallam sells his works only at crafts shows, but he’ll also take special orders. “I never intended to do this to get rich,” he said, chuckling. “I never imagined that I’d be in a magazine.” “It’s relaxing, enjoyable — and it takes patience,” he said. Hallam’s “Precious Love” is featured

YESTERYEAR from Page C1 League during the summer. A new football stadium was constructed at the fairgrounds and the first college game in many years, bringing together Carolina and Davidson, was played on the new gridiron. A park for the black community was built on city property on the Green Swamp road. The park contains a swimming pool, baseball diamond and other recreational facilities and is a real beauty spot. All of the labor for this work was furnished by the WPA. The park comprises about 15 acres of land. The Carolina Coca-Cola Bottling Company headed by A.T. Heath deeded to the city the First Mill property across the road from Swan Lake Gardens, and development of this property was started by the city, with the aid of the WPA. There are 55 acres included in this property, which will be developed as one of the beauty spots of the country. The work of beautification is being directed by H.C. Bland, owner of Swan Lake Gardens. Kiwanis gets new leader — Ed Hartin was appointed chairman of the agricultural committee of the Carolinas District of Kiwanis International by Richard E. Thigpen today. Kiwanis clubs located in the Carolinas plan to emphasize citizenship activities in 1939. Sports — The Sumter Midget Dragons held their last practice in preparation for their game against the Winston-Salem “Y” Midgets. The game was played on the local “Y” court. The local Midgets have 30 players in uniform and will be trying for their fourth consecutive win of the season. Probable starting lineup for the “Y” Dragons will be Charles Shaw and Randolph Bradham, forwards; Charles Propst center; Dannie McKiever and Deuward Bultman, guards. Bernard James and Raymond Fowler will officiate. The Sumter Generals basketball team will see action against the College of Charleston in a featured doubleheader at the YMCA. Players wearing their new uniforms are Robert Graham, Raymond Fowler, Jimmie Bryan, Bud Burgess, Hugh Stoddard, Bernard James and

James Spessard. Major Bowes unit at theater — Major Bowes International unit featuring the top talent of 200 broadcasts will be the headline stage attraction at the Sumter Theater Wednesday in conjunction with the feature picture “His Exciting Night” starring Charlie Ruggles. Major Bowes has been rightly named the foremost star maker of the present vaudeville era, and has done more to bring fresh entertainment to the byways and highways of the united States than any other single individual. The unit comprises first place prize winners in the nationwide voting that follows each of the Major’s weekly programs. At the movies — The Sumter Theater featured “Smashing the Rackets” with Chester Morris, Francis Mercer, Rita Johnson and Bruce Cabot, and “The Mind Needer” with Charlie Chase. The Saturday Night Late Show was offering Gary Cooper and Merle Oberon in “Cowboy and the Lady.” Tuesdays, Adolphe Menjou was featured in “Thanks for Everything.” The Rex Theater featured Zane Grey’s “The Mysterious Rider” with Douglas Dumbrille, Sidney Toler, Russell Hayden and Charlotte Fields. 50 YEARS AGO – 1963 Oct. 1-7 Dreher’s stunned Blue Devils are at home licking their wounds today and they must be wondering what’s happened. After 10 years of mastery over the Sumter Gamecocks, they’ve suddenly found that the Birds have scratched them two years in a row. Last night’s tussle in Columbia’s attractive Memorial Stadium resulted in a dramatic 6-0 victory for Coach Sandy Hershey’s improving squad. Hershey, quite pleased to score a win over the previously unbeaten Monsters of the Midway, says the boys are coming along nicely but have a piece to go. Sports — Still undefeated and unscored on is the proud record of Furman High’s Indians after their 14-0 win over McCall’s Red Devils last night on the Furman field before a large crowd. Coach Wyman Taylor and his staff were beaming after the Conference 5B decision. It was their fourth straight victory but

Stock car racing returns to the sports scene this Saturday night as Promoter Clinnie Hyatt says he’s hoping to get a break from the weather after two straight rainouts. “We haven’t run in three weeks and all of our drivers are eager to get back on the track,” he said. “I’ve learned that eight to 10 new cars have been assembled since we ran, so I expect to see the largest field of cars we’ve had all season out there.” This would mean more than 60 cars. Chamber welcomes new prez — R.E. Graham was chosen new president of the Sumter Chamber of Commerce, along with W. Burke Watson, vice president and Barnes Boyle, treasurer, in a Friday election. The election was held at a meeting of old and new boards of the Chamber, presided over by retiring president, Ramon Schwartz. Formal installation of Graham as Chamber president will take place Oct. 24 at the annual meeting. Planning Commission to meet – City Council will receive a recommendation from the City Planning Commission at its next regular meeting calling for the widening of Washington Street from Bartlette to Dingle Street. W.M. Hodge, a member of the Commission, suggested the street-widening yesterday during a meeting of the city planners. Hodge felt that since trees were being cut down and the street torn up for the city’s storm drainage improvements project, it would be in the best interests of the city to undertake widening. United Appeal drive starts — The 1963 edition of the Sumter County United Appeal gets under way tomorrow when volunteer solicitors begin the job of raising $116,500 for 21 health, welfare and character-building agencies.

Damron, campaign director, will each speak briefly on the merits of the campaign, endeavoring to relay their enthusiasm for the Appeal to the assemblage. Tornado strikes — A tornado struck Mayewood School and the Concord section of Sumter County early Sunday morning with devastating effect, causing extensive damage in both areas. The twister followed in the wake of heavy rainfall which deluged the city and county with almost 3 inches of rain within 24 hours. Small trees and limbs were scattered about the city. At Mayewood the tornado hit about 2 a.m. Sunday, knocking pebbles off the school’s gravel roof, shattering about 200 window panes. Several trees in the schoolyard were knocked down. There was slight water damage inside the school building. At the athletic field next to the school a press box was blown down by the high winds. Two light poles were twisted out of line. George A. James, business manager for District No. 2 schools, said damage to the school was estimated at about $500, fully covered by insurance. Stop Polio drive set — Members of the steering committee for the Stop Polio Sundays drive were announced today by Dr. C.B. Burns, chairman of the drive. Stop Polio Sundays is expected to be the largest program of preventive medicine ever held in South Carolina. An estimated million and a half persons will receive the Type 1 or oral polio vaccine. Sumter attorney elected — Arthur S. Bahnmuller, attorney, has been elected chairman of the Sumter County Chapter of the National Foundation. He will succeed J. Lawrence Goldsmith when the 1964 slate of officers is installed at the next meeting of the chapter’s governing board. Goldsmith will serve the chapter as vice-chairman and Otis B. Kempson, Jr. will retain the treasurer’s post. A secretary for the new year will be named at the installation meeting. Bahnmuller has been practicing law here for the past four years in partnership with G. Werber Bryan. He is married to the former Virginia Newton of Sumter. They reside at 9 Clinton St. with their

two children; Brant, 7 and Brion, 18 months old. A native of New York State, Bahnmuller attended the elementary schools of Holtsville, Long Island and high school at Bayport, L.I. Prior to entering the U.S. Air Force he attended the University of South Carolina where he earned a B.S. degree in engineering. He was a member of Tau Beta Pi, honorary fraternity for civil engineers and president of the university’s chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers. Booster Club meets — The Hillcrest Booster Club held its second meeting of the year Wednesday at the high school. E.G. Walker presided. The executive committee of Col. Walker; Gordon Lindler, vice president; Mrs. E.G. Walker, secretary-treasurer; Marsden Kelly, projects chairman; and Clint Shafer, publicity chairman, reported that several fundraising projects are being planned.

The ‘don’t’ days of fishing

S

afield & afloat

ome days they do and some days they don’t; fish that is. Some days they bite and some days they don’t. I seem to always pick the “don’t” days. After spending a weekend on the coast and being forced to lie under an umbrella while my lovely bride Sherri roasted away in the sun, I was due for a day of fishing, but really didn’t have a clue as to where to go. I needed to go somewhere or this article wouldn’t be written, but I could not decide the right Earle place to go. WOODWARD I checked the weather on Monday afternoon and a big storm was blowing up south of town, so that pretty much knocked out Monday, but Tuesday afternoon showed no signs of weather anywhere. It could be the day, but again, where to go? I was pulling out of the bank after making the company’s afternoon bank run and got a text from Cuz asking if I wanted to fish with him in his pond. No, I wasn’t texting and driving. I hadn’t pulled out of the parking spot yet. I pulled up to the barn and moved my rods and reels over to his truck for the short ride down to the pond and climbed in. First things first, we stopped on the edge of the dam and Cuz pulled a small container of fish pellets out of the truck and slung a handful onto the pond’s surface, which erupted into a boiling mass of fish fighting for the food. Oh, this was going to be fun. I pulled my flyrod from the

truck and laid a popping bug among the throng and it just sat there. No way! I twitched the bug a couple of times, with no results, and then lifted it off of the water and dropped it into another spot. The bug had been motionless for perhaps 15 seconds when a boil lifted from under it. I set the hook, but missed the fish. I repeated the process over and over again for 10 to 20 casts. The fish just kept missing the bug. You could see the swirls were just behind or just to the side of the bait. So we launched the Jon boat, attached the electric motor and began our fishing in earnest. I was casting a pink Zoom fluke and Cuz was chunking a motor oil- colored worm. We had the top and bottom covered. Nothing. My buddy Coffee Pot had been there a couple of days before and told me the bass were tearing it up, but either he is prone to exaggeration, which would be typical of most fishermen, or they had just shut off. CP don’t lie. Cuz had bragged on the bream they had been catching as well, so why not try something a bit smaller. The first choice was a tiny jig under a cork. The jig and cork thing has been a real killer in the past; just cast it out, let it sit for a second, then pull it about a foot and let it sit again. When you pull it, the jig rises to near the surface then slowly settles back down when you stop. The fish can’t stand it and usually strike while the jig falls. Not today. I caught one bream that would fit in the palm of my hand on the rig and that was it! Well, maybe a Beetlespin. Everyone knows that on some days a Beetlespin will outfish a cricket or worm. Retrieved

slowly, just enough to keep the blade spinning, it is really effective, and I’ve nailed some huge bream and shellcrackers that way. On this day, however, I could feel the fish hitting the short tail, but very few would actually take the lure and the ones that did may have measured three to four inches in length. We fished for the better part of two hours with absolutely nothing to show for it, and believe me, we pounded the shoreline and deep water structure with bass lures, bream lure and anything else we could think of, but it was just a complete waste of time. No, I can’t say a waste of time; it was a frustrating fishing trip, but Cuz and I had a great visit. We didn’t rush about anything and the temperature and humidity weren’t nearly as bad as they could have been on a late July afternoon. We chased an alligator around the pond, we watched his two dogs harass the ducks and had a great afternoon among nature. We just didn’t catch any fish to speak of. I have become accustomed to this sort of fishing. If I’m in a pond on Saturday, then they were surely biting on Friday, and if I’m drifting for flounder on Thursday, then they were wearing ‘em out on Tuesday. A person could get awfully tired of this. If I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a hundred times: “I just don’t understand it. They were right here yesterday, I don’t know where they have gone.” I do. They left town when I showed up. Some days they bite and some days they don’t. The “don’t” days are the days when I’m fishing. Deer season is just a couple of weeks away.

FISHING REPORT Santee Cooper System Largemouth bass: Slow to fair. Captain Jimmie Hair reports that early and late has seen the best bite in the lakes. Early in the morning a few fish can be caught around lily pads even as shallow as 1-3 feet deep on frogs, but there is a very narrow window for this bite. When the sun is up some fish can be caught on Senkos and plastic worms fishing in the shade around cypress trees. The bite in the Cooper River has been decent for good fish, and throwing topwater lures where water is coming out of the rice fields on the outgoing tide has worked pretty well. Baby Torpedoes and Pop-Rs have both been productive, and Zoom Magnum Finesse worms in black and blue, green pumpkin and watermelon seed have also caught some fish in the same areas.

Lake Murray Crappie: Slow to fair. Captain Brad Taylor reports that crappie are in a typical summer pattern and can be found around deep brush in 20-25 feet of water, or deeper. Largemouth bass: Day to day. Veteran tournament angler Captain Doug Lown reports that largemouth bass are in a fairly typical summer pattern. The bite has been off and on, with fish feeding decently one day then very little the next. Because there has been so much rain SCE&G has been pulling a lot of water and current has been present, and consequently fish don’t seem to be suspending as much as in the last couple of summers. When current is present fish are more likely to be relating to the bottom and structure.

Lake Wateree Largemouth Bass: Fair. Guide Dearal Rodgers reports that the water level at Wateree has been moving up and down quite a bit. He has found good bites in the 15-20 foot range when the water is falling on deeper spots in the main lake. For deeper fishing Dearal suggests throwing bigger baits due to the stained water color. The Buckeye Mop jig is working well with its live rubber and a chartreuse Stike King 6XD is also getting bites. For the pockets, jigs and ol’ monster worms around docks with brush seem to be the trick.

| but also in the cooler water at the upper end of the lake. The best pattern has been fishing down lines about 25 feet deep off main lake points. Crappie: Fair. Guide Wendell Wilson reports that daytime crappie fishing has improved a bit, and fish are being caught around brushpiles 20-25 feet deep just off the bottom. The depth range is the key and there has been no particular part of the lake producing best. At night there continues to be some good fishing with minnows under lights about 15-20 feet down.

Lake Thurmond Crappie: Good. Captain William Sasser reports that crappie are in the main channels about 20 feet down in about 25 feet of water over brush. Don’t bother looking in the very backs, but fish are also not super deep yet because water temperatures have stayed mild - especially ten feet down - which probably accounts for the strong bite. The Georgia Little River has been very productive. Black bass: Slow to fair. Buckeye Lures in Augusta reports that bass fishing remains slow on the lake, and the best pattern is now dragging soft plastics or Mop Jigs around deep humps and points. Lake Wylie Largemouth Bass: Fair. FLW Professional and Guide Matt Arey reports that the best bite remains offshore, but as the summer wears on Lake Wylie is small enough that the offshore bite gets tougher as fish get hammered repeatedly. Offshore fish can be caught around humps, bridges and underwater points with swimbaits, drop shot rigs, DD-22s, and football head jigs. There is also a decent bream bed bite around the new and full moons, and at times bass can be found cruising in packs and targeting spawning bream around docks and in the backs of sandy coves. Prop baits, swimbaits and weightless Senkos will catch fish.

Lake Jocassee

Black Bass: Slow to fair. Veteran angler Captain Pat Bennett reports that small bass can be caught around shallow cover on soft plastic worms. Fish can be found around waterfalls but boat traffic is heavy in those areas at times. Bigger fish are well into their summertime habits of staying offshore and Lake Greenwood Largemouth Bass: Fair. Veteran tournament angler Stan they are focused on roaming schools of baitfish. Bass can be Gunter reports that bass fishing is far from easy on Lake caught by anglers who get on the water very early or fish in Greenwood, but some very large sacks have been caught the late evening or at night. Lake Keowee recently. The best pattern has been fishing crankbaits, big worms and jigs deep in the 18 foot range around brushpiles. Largemouth and Spotted Bass: Fair to good. Guide Brad Early in the morning some nice fish are also being caught on Fowler reports that pretty good numbers of Lake Keowee bass are being caught right now. Early in the morning fish are Pop-Rs and floating worms fished shallow. feeding well on topwater lures over shallow, rocky points, and Lake Monticello Catfish: Good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that he is later in the day fish are being caught on Carolina rigs, drop catching fish in the range of 5-40 feet right now, but in the shot rigs and shakey head worms. Fish in 18-30 feet of water next couple of weeks deep humps with current flowing over around depth changes and rock. The best bite has been them should be ideal spots to locate big, aggressive fish. switching back and forth between the upper and lower lake,. Lake Hartwell There have been fish deep for some time, but they have not been feeding as well as the shallower fish. For now the backs Black Bass: Tough. Guide Brad Fowler reports that with water of coves and humps and points have been most productive, levels so high fish are very spread out and finding them has and drifting or anchoring have both been working. Big cut been difficult for most anglers. Typically at this time of year a lot of fish can be found suspended well out from main lake gizzard shad and white perch are working for big fish. points in 40-60 feet of water where they are susceptible to Lake Russell Striped bass: Fair. Guide Wendell Wilson reports that striper flukes, Spooks, and swimbaits fished near the surface, but are still scattered, with fish being caught in the mid-lake area right now that bite is very sporadic.

Entrepreneurial Programming Entrepreneurial TV shows Is Good Business often provide useful tools It's easy to say reality television is bad for you. It often brings the lowest common denominator to the forefront of American culture. From "Jersey Shore" to "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" to "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," the genre often shows the worst we have to offer as a society. Then there are programs such as "Shark Tank," "Dukes of Melrose," "Chef Roblé & Co." and others that showcase talent and are sometimes useful tools. These shows enlighten and are informative. And if you watch closely enough, you just might learn something about how to run a business. So, many of my friends are addicted to "Shark Tank," airing Fridays at 8 p.m. on ABC. If you pay attention, there is much to be gleaned from these multibillionaires who aren't afraid to take risks but don't throw their money away. I've learned everything from what makes a successful business plan to why consumable products usually make a great deal more money. But even the Sharks can make mistakes. "I think the national average of venture investing is maybe 1 in 15 deals works, but it works so well that it pays for the other 14 mistakes," says Shark and businessman Kevin O'Leary. "And it's serendipitous sometimes. The best deals you thought would fly,

with the best people, are the ones that don't work. And you need a huge portfolio because you never know when lightning's going to strike. That's why this show is so magical. People are trying to guess what's going to work and what isn't. And the follow-ups are going to get more interesting every year because sometimes ones we passed on are huge hits, and sometimes the ones you think are absolutely dogs, like Lori's (Greiner) stupid thing, is huge." If viewers pay attention, they can pick up great business tips from the Sharks. "I think one thing to add as a producer of the show," says Clay Newbill, "is that all of the Sharks that we have on 'Shark Tank,' they're all self-made. And the beauty of the show is the fact that they can relate because at one point they were in the shoes of the person who's actually pitching them their idea. They were that person for all practical purposes. Somebody who had an idea, who had the drive and the passion to get it done, and they've become successful today. Basically, if you look at them, you can tell. They all dress up very nicely, but it's a group of mutts that have done really well." With so many programming choices, viewers can find almost anything to fit their interests. Fashion aficionados, of whom I am one, have a slew of choices to choose from, including Lifetime's "Project Runway," airing Thursday at 9 p.m. 2:30

The prizes include $150,000 from GoBank, a $100,000 fabric allowance from Tide Pods, as well as $50,000 in HP and Intel technology to help with their business. They also have a chance to sell their line through the department store Belk, and earn a fashion spread in Marie Claire. And those are just a few of the prizes. "The opportunity is there," says Tim Gunn, who is a mentor and host of the show. This year his job has changed a bit, in that he will be sitting with the judges and making comments. "If the designer who wins is smart, they'll take advantage of the opportunity they've been given. This is a huge launching pad for them, one many in the industry would kill to have. We have so many creative individuals on our show, but the ones who are successful also understand that this is a business." "You must have vision," adds judge and co-host Heidi Klum. She has capitalized on her career as a supermodel and turned it into a multimillion-dollar empire. "Talent is what makes the difference between the winners and the losers. We've had contestants who have gone on to do great things, and others who we never hear from again. It's artistic, but it is also a business."
