Don’t let the holidays stress you out Mindfulness is key to avoiding getting overwhelmed

BY KONSTANTIN VENGEROWSKY konstantin@theitem.com Holidays can be “the most wonderful time of the year,” but de-stressing is important to be happy and healthy, according to local therapists.

“We are our own worst enemies sometimes as we think that we have to ‘try harder’ or ‘do more,’” said Constance Gina W. Smith, therapist and owner of Lifeway Counseling in Sumter. “You have to make time for yourself, have more self-care and self-compassion.

Holiday stress can be overwhelming for some people. Experts recommend avoiding pitfalls that exacerbate the problems stress causes. Missy Corrigan offers some tips on avoiding stress on page A3.

You just have to trust that things will get done.”

Mindfulness is a key point to being less stressed, she said.

The holidays are a time when there are fluctuations in people’s emotions.

Dear Santa …

A CHRISTMAS STORY

Santa comes to life in the grocery store Editor’s note: One of our former reporters wrote this touching story on his Facebook account, and we asked if we could share it with our readers.

BY KEN BELL

Approximately 300 people were fed during last year’s dinner, and the church anticipates 500 guests this year.

Shekia Bradford, event coordinator, said the church is expecting more guests because of the recent flood.

She said feeding 500 people is estimated to cost about $5,000.

“The meals never costs us anything,” Napoleon Bradford said.

He said all food for the dinner is

I was grocery shopping last week when suddenly a little girl about 6 or 7 years old ran up, almost bumping into me. “Excuse me,” she said as she abruptly stopped.

The child looked up at me BELL with her brown eyes open wide and in an excited voice asked, “Are you Santa Claus?” Almost immediately realizing I was not, she explained, “I saw you as we were coming in and thought you were Santa Claus.”

About this time her mother walked up with an even younger child in the shopping cart. The mother began to apologize, but I stopped her.

The excitement of the season danced in this child’s eyes and her cherub-like face was filled with the anticipation of Christmas. There was no way I could let her down.

So I knelt down and whispered, “You found out my secret. No, I’m not Santa Claus; I’m his brother. I help him make sure boys and girls are being good even while shopping for groceries with their mother. But don’t tell anyone my secret, OK? And I’m going to let Santa know what a sweet big sister you are.”

Suddenly, she latched on around my neck and gave me one of the biggest hugs I’ve ever had.

“Will you tell him to bring me everything on my wish list this year?” she asked, excitedly.

Not knowing the family’s financial situation and certainly not wanting to make a promise that Santa couldn’t keep, I gave the best answer I could

Local church to host Christmas dinner for all

BY ADRIENNE SARVIS adrienne@theitem.com Jehovah Missionary Baptist Church will host its fourth Community Christmas Dinner for the Sumter community from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday at the M. H. Newton Family Life Center, 415 Manning Ave. Napoleon Bradford, a minister at Jehovah, said the dinner was originally designed to feed the homeless but has grown to provide meals for everyone.

He said the church did not want to alienate anyone and later reached out to others in the community to invite anyone who wants to eat or fellowship on Christmas.

He said the dinner should focus on bringing families and community members together.

“Christmas is just like Thanksgiving,” Bradford said, “you recognize who’s not there.”

Bradford said meals will also be delivered to the sick and shut in.

Get most out of your live Christmas tree H arold Johnson, owner of Treehouse Nursery, said the trick to making a live Christmas tree last is by giving it plenty of water.

He said a half inch should be cut from the bottom of the tree before placing in the stand because the end could be dry and unable to soak up water.

Johnson said he has never seen a need to add anything to the water as long as the tree is given plenty of clean water.

He said some people tend to underestimate how much water a live tree needs and do not refill the bowl for days.

Some people will leave a tree for three or four days and later realize all of the water is gone, he said.

People should keep water in the bowl until it is time to take the tree out, Johnson said.

“The trees will drink about one to two liters a day,” he said.

Making sure the tree is properly hydrated will ensure that it lasts about six to eight weeks, he said.

Another of Johnson’s tips includes not setting trees near fireplaces, heaters or HVAC vents, which could cause the tree to quickly dry out.

Later, when all gifts have been opened, the tree can be repurposed during City of Sumter and Sumter County’s annual Grinding of the Greens.

Assistant City Manager of Public Services Al Harris said the Grinding of the Greens, the process of grinding old live Christmas trees into mulch, is the city and county’s way of getting rid of old trees in an environmentally friendly way.

Old live Christmas trees that are left out on the curb between Jan. 4-14 will be collected by City of Sumter Sanitation Department and taken to Dillon Park on Clara Louise Kellogg Drive to be ground.

Grinding of the Greens will begin at 8 a.m. on Jan 15, and the public will be able to pick up the free mulch from the park on Jan. 16.

For more information about the Grinding of the Greens call City of Sumter Public Works at (803) 436-2558.

Company contributes $1,000 to Crosswell

Here comes Santa Claus

FROM STAFF REPORTS

Oakland Primary School students got a visit from Santa Claus after their annual Christmas Sing-along recently.

$6.5M settlement details released CHARLESTON (AP) — The family of a man shot to death by a North Charleston police officer now charged with murder has filed legal papers asking a judge to approve a $6.5 million wrongful-death settlement.

The request also provides a breakdown for the first time of how the settlement will be given out. There is no indication when a judge might consider the request.

The settlement gives annuities totaling $1 million to three of Walter Scott’s four children, according to court papers obtained by The Post and Courier of Charleston.

Scott’s estate will get $3 million, while

three law firms who helped represent his family will divide about $2.4 million.

About $17,000 will pay Scott’s back child support. The money Scott owed is the reason his family said he ran away from a traffic stop on April 4 in North Charleston.

Officer Michael Slager chased Scott, who was not armed, and the two wrestled on the ground before Scott stood back up and ran, authorities said.

He was shot in the back moments later, investigators said, and the bystander video released caused a national uproar and prompted an immediate murder charge against Slager, who remains in jail awaiting trial.

A new face on Sumter’s business landscape and a large, multi-national company have partnered to make a gift to a local organization benefiting children.

Brewer-Hendley Oil Co. of Sumter and CITGO Petroleum Corp. recently presented a check for $1,000 to Sumter’s Crosswell Home for Children.

The gift was a collaboration between Brewer-Hendley, a local distributor of automotive and industrial lubricants, and CITGO, one of the nation’s leading manufacturers of lubricants and greases.

“We challenged our supplier-partners at CITGO to match our pledge to the Crosswell Home for Children, and they were delighted to participate,” said Daly Ward, general manger for BrewerHendley’s Sumter operation, said. “We hope that more Sumter businesses will explore matching gift opportunities using their vendor and affiliate resources for the benefit of organizations such as Crosswell.”

Crosswell Home for Children, established in 1935, provides nurturing care and a non-institutional environment for children in transition.

6 ways to cope with holiday stress this season

T

he holiday season is meant to bring joy and merriment, and it can, but the number of people who suffer from depression and stress increases significantly during the holidays.

The added financial strain of gift shopping, the pressure to create the perfect holiday experience as well as the demands and requirements to entertain family or guests can really take their toll. Even if you are usually content, you can experience stress or even depression.

If symptoms occur at this time every year, you can identify your triggers and try to minimize the onset.

While it is best to avoid stressful situations, that is often unavoidable. However, you can help reduce the amount of your holiday stress with these prac-

tical tips.

Get rid of expectations. The holidays don’t have to be perfect or just like the previous year. As families grow and change, traditions tend to as well. If you are expecting a certain gift or expecting that the holidays go the way you picture them, you may be setting yourself up for disappointment and frustration. Be open Missy and flexible, allowing Corrigan things to happen naturally.

Connect with others. If you are spending the holidays alone or feel isolated or lonely, seek out community or religious social events. Volunteer your

time in a nursing home or at local soup kitchens. When you take the focus off yourself and realize that there are those who have it tougher than you, it is hard to feel down.

Stick to a budget. Gift giving can cause stress and unhappiness, especially if a person doesn’t have the money. Don’t try to buy happiness with expensive gifts or an abundance of them. Decide how much you are going to spend, and stick to it. Give what you can, and write a note from the heart which holds more value than any object can.

Avoid Scrooges and Grinches. Look at who you surround yourself with during the holidays. Are there some individuals who really just deplete you of your energy or make your blood boil?

Try to avoid contact with the drama

queens, criticizers and blamers if they tend to push your buttons and create negative energy.

Recharge yourself. Be sure to set aside some time when you can be alone to read a book, take a nap or get some exercise. When we are off our normal schedule, it is easier to break down, get stressed out and experience depression.

Create positive thoughts. Regardless of your situation or circumstance, focus on all the positive things that have happened in your life. Make a list of all of the things you are grateful for. Your mood can greatly improve if you realize that the glass is half full instead of half empty.

Don’t let stress get you down this holiday season. Be realistic, plan ahead, and seek support.

FDA proposes ban on indoor tanning for those under 18

BY MATTHEW PERRONE AP Health Writer THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — Anyone under the age of 18 would be barred from using indoor tanning equipment, under a federal proposal to help reduce skin cancer linked to the devices.

The Food and Drug Administration also wants to require tanning bed users to sign consent forms acknowledging the risks of the radiation-emitting devices. Tanning salons and other businesses would have to collect the forms from customers before their first tanning session and every six months thereafter.

Friday’s announcement follows years of prodding by dermatologists and medical groups for bolder action on indoor tanning, citing rising rates of skin cancer among teens and people in their 20s, particularly women. The leading professional group for skin specialists applauded the news.

“Restricting teens’ access to indoor tanning and educating all users about the dangers of tanning devices are critical steps to preventing skin cancer,” said Dr. Mark Lebwohl, president of the American Academy of Dermatology, in a printed statement.

Twenty-three states already have laws banning minors from using indoor tanning equipment.

Last year the FDA required tanning beds and sun lamps to carry new warnings advising that they should not be used by anyone under age 18. The FDA has regulated tanning machines for more than 30 years but had previously taken little action to restrict their use.

“Despite available information about its adverse effects, many high schoolers continue

Single-dosage syringes of the Fluarix quadrivalent influenza virus vaccine are seen in New York in November. While flu season is slow this year, South Carolina is the only state with a significant number of flu-related visits at doctor’s offices and clinics.

Flu season off to slower start AP FILE PHOTO

An open tanning bed is seen in Sacramento, California, in 2011.

On Friday, federal health officials proposed a ban on the use of tanning beds for anyone under the age of 18. to use indoor tanning devices,” the FDA’s Dr. Vasum Peiris told reporters. “Now we’re taking further steps.”

The FDA would be able to seize machines and fine businesses that don’t follow the rules, once finalized, according to Peiris, who is a chief medical officer in the agency’s device center.

The Indoor Tanning Association said decisions about tanning should be left to parents, not the government.

“We are concerned that the proposed requirements will burden our members with additional unnecessary governmental costs in an already difficult economic climate,” states the group, which represents makers of tanning beds and related products.

Nearly 74,000 new cases of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, are expected to be diagnosed this year, and the disease is expected to cause nearly 10,000 deaths, according to the American Cancer Society. While most cases are diagnosed in people in their 40s and 50s, the disease is linked to sun exposure at a young age.

This is the perfect time of year to let you know how much your business is appreciated.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

NEW YORK (AP) — This year’s flu season seems like old times.

There’s not much flu going around so far — unlike the last three seasons when doctors’ offices were filled with patients before Christmas and illnesses peaked by late December.

“It really is off to sort of a slow start” compared to that recent history, said Lynnette Brammer of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The CDC released its weekly flu count Friday. Only South Carolina is showing significant flu-related traffic at doctor’s offices and clinics.

Traditionally, most flu seasons don’t really get going until near Christmas — possibly triggered by holiday gatherings that bring together people and viruses. Infected kids then go back to school, mingle with classmates, and flu season takes off.

Using mathematical modeling, scientists at Los Ala-

mos National Laboratory this week predicted there’s a 57 percent chance this flu season will peak in February and a 67 percent chance it will be mild.

Experts are still puzzled about why flu became epidemic so early the last few years. Factors might include the weather and what kind of flu bug was spreading the most, said Dr. John Treanor, a flu vaccine researcher at University of Rochester School of Medicine.

Coroner keeps unclaimed items from 77 people

BY ANDREW DYS The Herald of Rock Hill ROCK HILL — Brittany Keane keeps the dead — and their money, their jewelry, even their TV sets.

Everything that belonged to 77 people who have died in York County since the 1980s, whose families never claimed the person’s possessions — or the person.

Men and women as old as 85.

Younger people whose lives ended abruptly in violence or despair. A baby who lived just three months.

Homeless men who lived desperate lives of survival, until life ended on cold railroad tracks. Victims of crimes, including a woman who was killed by her own son in 2013.

The people span ethnicity and race, but they share the same thing— nobody claimed their remains, their stuff or both after they came into possession of the York County Coroner’s Office.

“We have many sets of cremains here — the bodies of people who were never picked up,” said Keane, the deputy coroner in charge of the evidence storage. “Every case here was at one time a life.”

During years, decades in many cases, the ashes of cremated people or the items at the scene of death or in a home at the time of death were never picked up by family.

Some were indigent— poor and alone — but others had families who just decided that they wanted nothing from the death.

Those who work in the coroner’s office hope memories have just faded and that many, if not all, eventually will be claimed.

Keane showed earrings, wallets and a jewelry box. She pointed to stacks of plastic boxes — dozens — filled with ashes.

The office doesn’t have the room to store human remains for decades, so unclaimed bodies are cremated.

Inside each box are the remains of somebody who laughed and loved, learned and wept, and, eventually, died.

“All of these items together are part of who that person was,” Keane said. “They mattered. They still matter to us.”

Within the envelopes and boxes are several cases with photos of people in life, driver’s licenses, identifications that show where the person worked or who he or she was in life.

For some, the only possessions are an old TV set, a wooden jewelry box or some fake diamond earrings worn as her heart shuddered to an end.

Coroner Sabrina Gast, first elected in 2006, has made several improvements to the office aimed at making service to bereaved families more efficient and helpful.

Keane and others are meticulous in dealing with the cremains and possessions of the dead.

Anyone who comes in to claim someone’s effects must show proof that they are the legal next-of-kin.

Coroners, who are often charged with notifying families of the death of a loved one, know that emotions can run high — even years later.

“Our goal is simple,” Keane said. “Find the families and reunite those families with their loved ones.”

Falling gas prices help fuel S.C. travel FROM STAFF REPORTS According to AAA Carolinas, a record number of South Carolinians — nearly 1.4 million — will travel 50 miles or more for the Christmas/New Year’s holidays.

That is an increase of 19,000 compared to last year. Ninety percent of those travelers plan to drive to their destination.

“Falling gas prices will lead to more South Carolinians traveling to celebrate the holidays and ring in the New Year with family and friends,” said David E. Parsons, president and CEO of AAA Carolinas. “With most people hitting the roads during this time, we want to stress the importance of buckling up, avoiding drinking and driving and eliminating distractions behind the wheel such as cellphone usage.”

The 12-day travel holiday is defined as Wednesday, Dec. 23, through Sunday, Jan. 3.

As the longest holiday travel period of the year, it is also one of the deadliest.

Last year, 42 people died on South Carolina roads during the period — that’s 10 more fatalities than in 2013.

Those driving to their destinations will encounter the lowest gas prices in seven years. South Carolinians are paying 50 cents less for a gallon of gas than they were a year ago. The statewide average

is $1.79 and prices are expected to continue their decline through the start of 2016 because of an abundant supply domestically and less people driving during the winter months.

South Carolina motorists will find the cheapest gas in Spartanburg at $1.72 and the most expensive gas in Charleston at $1.82.

An estimated 73,900 South Carolinians will fly to their destinations, a 0.7 percent increase from last year. Airfares are down 6 percent from a year ago, averaging $174 for the top 40 U.S routes. Car rental rates are up 3 percent from a year ago to $68 per day.

Hotel rates for AAA Three Diamond hotels have increased by 4 percent from a year ago, averaging $150 per night.

AAA Two Diamond hotels average $119 per night, an 11 percent increase from last year.

With parties frequently held between Christmas and New Year’s, drunk driving is always a major problem during this travel period. AAA advises drivers to assign a designated driver or use a car service if they are planning to consume alcohol.

During the holiday period, unexpected weather or vehicle problems may leave motorists stranded. AAA Carolinas recommends keeping an emergency kit in

your car that includes: • Cellphone and car charger; • Blankets and Visit flashlight with extra fuelcostcalculator.com batteries; • First aid kit; • Drinking water and non-perishable snacks; • Small shovel and a sack of sand or cat litter for traction; • Windshield scraper; • Battery booster cables; • Emergency triangle reflectors; and • Change of clothes, including socks and shoes.

South Carolina Department of Transportation generally prohibits lane closures on interstates and high-volume multi-lane routes from 6 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 23 through 10 p.m. Sunday, Jan.3.

To estimate fuel costs, travelers can visit www.fuelcostcalculator.com to input starting city, destination and the make and model of their car.

The free AAA Mobile app for iPhone and Android devices uses GPS navigation to help travelers map a route, find updated gas prices, view nearby member discounts and access AAA Roadside Assistance.

Why can’t Donald Trump shut down the Internet?

NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump says the government must work with “brilliant people” in Silicon Valley to keep violent extremists offline, even if it means shutting down parts of the Internet.

But what he’s proposing isn’t possible with today’s technology.

And even if it were, such a move would likely hurt more than potential attackers, and it would hinder the government’s ability to keep tabs on them.

Here’s a look at Trump’s idea and why it won’t work:

WHAT TRUMP SAID During Tuesday’s Republican presidential debate, Trump said that because the extremist Islamic State group is using the Internet to recruit, the tech industry needs to find a way to stop them from doing that.

“ISIS is recruiting through the Internet. ISIS is using the Internet better than we are using the Internet, and it was our idea,” Trump said. “What I wanted to do is I wanted to get our brilliant people from Silicon Valley and

FIRST OBSTACLE: THE INTERNET ITSELF For one thing, the U.S. doesn’t control the Internet.

No one does.

Because the Internet is a global network of networks that are all owned by different governments, companies or individuals, “no one person owns it,” said Charlie Baker, vice president of product management for the Internet performance company Dyn. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Presidential candidate Donald Trump makes a point during the CNN Republican presidential debate at the Venetian Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas on Tuesday. other places and figure out a way that ISIS cannot do what they’re doing.”

WHAT TRUMP PROPOSES Trump went on to say that that he would be open to closing parts of the Internet that cover areas where the U.S. is at war or where IS operates, such as parts of Syria and Iraq.

Even better, he said, would be to tap the brightest minds from the U.S. to infiltrate extremists’ Internet gatherings and stay up

on their activities — something U.S. intelligence agencies are already working at.

Trump isn’t alone in calling on Silicon Valley’s brainpower to figure out a way to keep violent extremists off social networks and messaging services.

Democrat Hillary Clinton also has said the U.S. government and technologists should work together to block potential attackers from using the Internet to draw in new supporters.

ROUTING AROUND OBSTACLES Ferreting out extremist groups and kicking them off the Internet in the U.S. just isn’t realistic, given how rapidly the fluid Internet grows and changes. And the U.S. just doesn’t have the technical ability to cut off Internet access in a country it doesn’t control. (Military action might be a different story, although it presents difficulties of its own.)

Baker added that people have a long history of finding their way around Internet restrictions whether it’s democracy activists in China or Iran or tweens looking to circumvent their school’s firewall.

BY SUE MANNING The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Ugly sweaters aren’t just a Christmas tradition for people. Cats, dogs and even guinea pigs are joining the party.

Zigzilla “Ziggy” and Chopper “Lambchop” got sweaters from PetSmart this year so they’ll be ready when they get an invite to their first ugly sweater party, said the cats’ owner Catie Savage of New York City.

“My non-cat lady friends definitely think I am crazy,” said Savage, who handles her cats’ Instagram site (@life_ of_ziggy), with 43,000 followers. She says she enjoys the sweaters more than the cats do, “which makes it even funnier to me.”

“PetSmart’s ugly sweaters for dogs and cats are among our top five best-selling holiday apparel items so far this season,” said Eran Cohen, chief customer experience officer for the pet store. “We even have ugly sweaters for guinea pigs.”

TV ushered the ugly sweater in and out in the 1980s.

About the turn of the century it enjoyed a revival, starting with adults, who had parties just to celebrate the ugliness. Kids got in on the act, and now pets have nosed their way in, giving owners laughs and plenty to photograph.

Ugly sweater dog events across the country this month included an ugly sweater contest for dogs at a park in Anaheim, California; a dog-friendly ugly sweater 5K run and walk in National Harbor, Maryland; and separate ugly sweater parties for big and little dogs hosted by Chicago Party Animals, one of the nation’s largest canine clubs with 2,000 members.

You can find ready-made ugly sweaters everywhere from 99 cent stores to highend stores, but they’re an especially hot item at thrift stores — though presumably most shoppers are buying them for people, not pets.

“Our stores collect holiday sweaters year-round,” said Marla Eby, marketing and community relations director for Goodwill Southern California. “Then we decorate them, adding ribbons, bows and embellishments until they are at their gaudy best.”

“Customers snap up the sweaters as soon as we bring them out on the floor,” said vice president of Retail Operations Craig Stone. “They are so popular we can’t keep them in stock.”

Aimee Beltran of Virginia Beach, Virginia, has turned her blog (http://irresistiblepets.net) into an ugly sweater classroom twice,

using her 6-year-old Chihuahua Chuy as a model for the finished product.

Her advice to anyone making a pet sweater: “Have fun with it. Don’t take it too seriously. Make it your own and your style. There is no right or wrong way to do it.”

An ugly sweater has to celebrate Christmas. The bolder the colors, the brighter and the more stuff on it, the better — bring on the bows, snowmen, Santas, trees, buttons, stars, sequins, rickrack, felt, glitter and cotton. Sleeves can be mismatched, misshapen or missing.

But most pets — including Savage’s cats — would probably like to ditch the sweaters.

“Dog vision is different than human vision, and because patterns are not particularly useful to their vision, dogs probably could care less what their sweater looks like,” said Dr. Bonnie

Beaver, executive director of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists and a professor at Texas A&M University’s College of Veterinary Medicine.

Most dogs and cats don’t like wearing sweaters unless they got used to being dressed young.

“Sometimes the putting on or taking off can cause static electricity, which would make the dog even more anxious the next

time,” Beaver said.

If a dog has grown up wearing clothes or if a dog is

small and short-haired and it is cold, a sweater will be OK, but wearing one for a contest “is of no consequence to the dog, which will be focused on the scents around it and not on the real appearance of other dogs,” Beaver said.

Owners love to have fun with their pets, but “most of this is a people thing,” Beaver said.

Aimee Beltran’s Chihuahua Chuy is seen decked out in an ugly Christmas sweater at her home in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Security now heightened at churches, mosques Members of the congregation arrive at the All Dulles Area Muslim Society Center in Sterling, Virginia, on Friday. Religious congregations across the U.S. are concentrating on safety like never before after a season of violence from the slaughter unleashed in June 2015 by a white shooter at a historically black church in Charleston to the killings this month in San Bernardino, California.

organization found 71 reported cases of vandalism, harassment and threats, with 29 of those incidents occurring since the Nov. 13 assaults in France.

The Anti-Defamation League, which works to secure Jewish sites, has been organizing safety training across the country with other faith groups, including an Austin, Texas, event with local police and the African Methodist Episcopal Churches of Greater Austin that drew participants from 35 churches and three mosques. The Charleston church attacked in June, Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, is part of the national African Methodist

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — In Alabama, a Presbyterian church wanted to be able to hire its own police for protection.

Mosque leaders across the country are meeting with law enforcement officials as an anti-Muslim furor fuels arson attacks and vandalism. And the Federal Emergency Management Agency has been holding specialized training for congregations for “all hazards, including active shooter incidents.”

Religious congregations across the United States are concentrating on safety like never before after a season of violence from the slaughter unleashed in June by a white shooter at a historically black church in Charleston to the killings this month in San Bernardino, California.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations said 2015 is shaping up as the worst year ever for U.S. mosques, amid the backlash to the Islamic-extremist attacks in Paris and San Bernardino and the intensifying anti-Muslim rhetoric from Donald Trump and others seeking the GOP presidential nomination. Preliminary 2015 data collected by the civil rights

Episcopal denomination.

Christian churches have been refining their security plans ahead of receiving some of their largest crowds of the year for Christmas. On a FEMA webinar last Wednesday on protecting houses of wor-

ship, the chief security executive at The Potter’s House, the Rev. T.D. Jakes’ megachurch in Dallas, gave tips about behavior that should raise concern, such as a congregant arriving in a long coat in hot weather. If needed, church greeters could

give a hug and feel for weapons, said the executive, Sean Smith.

“I call it the Holy Ghost patdown,” Smith said.

Congregations and other religious sites have long been targets of violence and vandalism, especially African-American churches going back at least to the civil rights movement.

In 2007, a young man on a shooting spree killed two people at an evangelical ministry and two more at New Life Church in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In 2012, a white supremacist killed six people at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin. And last year, a white supremacist killed three people at a Jewish Community Center and retirement home in suburban Kansas City.

Ho. Ho. Ho. Big Christmas news in Sumter

BY GRAHAM OSTEEN

COMMENTARY

T

their normal mean selves. This is HUGE because Swan Lake is the only public park in the country with all eight swan species.

We also learned this week that the city’s getting $80,000 from the Duke Energy Foundation to create educational nature trails in protected areas near Shaw Air Force Base. I don’t know much more than what we reported out of the city council meeting, but green space nature trails are HUGE. Sumter County’s 2014 per capita income improved more than $3,000 to $36,077, making Sumter No. 11 of 46 South Carolina counties. The state average is $36,777, so that’s a good sign of progress.

Jay Schwedler, Sumter Economic Development President and CEO, pointed out that collective efforts by leadership in the private and public sectors are essential to success, and that we must continue to focus on creating a talented and educated workforce.

“We all owe it to the next generation to give them the opportunity to succeed and live a better life than ourselves,” he said, adding that the news is HUGE. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, it appears we can all be confident about the people of Sumter’s long-term health care needs being met. A group of us met at The Sumter Item offices Wednesday morning with Todd Miller, Palmetto’s chief marketing and communications officer; Tammie Epps, Palmetto’s media relations manager; and Traci Quinn, Tuomey’s public relations representative in Sumter and a long-time writer and ed-

he week before Christmas was a good one for Sumter.

Santa Claus is definitely coming to town.

The long-awaited Main Street hotel was officially confirmed as a Hyatt Place. I was hoping it was going to be the Ritz-Thompson-Carlton, but a Hyatt Place will do.

According to our Thursday story — http://bit.ly/1OeGQfy — hotel amenities “will include a meeting room that can seat approximately 40 people, a bar, a green space with an outdoor fireplace and space to hold three tents for social events and an outdoor pool.”

I can’t wait to go swimming in downtown Sumter.

As America’s Carnival Barker Donald Trump would say, “This is HUGE.” Construction is expected to start by April 2016, making completion sometime around summer 2017.

There will be 93 rooms and the complex will be connected to a parking garage to be constructed on the corner of Sumter Street and Hampton Avenue.

In a somewhat related matter, Sumter City Council approved an amendment to allow sidewalk dining in the Central Business District, meaning boozy outdoor lunches are coming to the Gamecock City. We’ll be joining the ranks of New York, Paris and Georgetown, so this is also HUGE. In the wake of the insidious October flooding, Swan Lake has been completely re-opened. This is a tribute to Al Harris and his crew with the city’s public services. The place was a mess and the swans were confused, but I was there the other day and all eight species seemed to be getting back to

Santa Claus lives on forever thanks to the late H.D. Osteen Sr. in this famous 1952 photograph. Osteen and the late Heyward Crowson used a process that preceded Photoshop by 36 years.

itor at The Sumter Item. The story is here: http://bit.ly/1OfhVhY. Miller described the partnership as a “great cultural fit,” and what we heard from them all about Palmetto’s community health care philosophy and their ambitious plans for the future was the best “Tuomey news” we’ve heard in many years. I also believe him because he has great public relations experience all over the country, a good sense of humor and looks like Matthew Broderick of Ferris Bueller fame.

Palmetto has no illusions about the hard work ahead, but he said a recent

survey of the Sumter community confirmed what we have known all along: That Sumter “wants and loves its hospital and has a positive view of the new arrangement.”

“They believe it will be a better place,” he said, and I completely agree. This is HUGE. Merry Christmas from all of us at The Sumter Item.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR WRITER EXPLAINS, AGREES WITH TEA PARTY This is in response to Mr. Lee Roy Campbell Jr.’s letter on Dec. 13.

He was going on about Trump supporters. I want to comment on the “group of people who started or joined the Teabagger group.”

I have written about this several times. The TEA (taxed enough already) Party stands for 1. Fiscal responsibility, 2. Limited government and 3. Adherence to the Constitution.

There are other issues, but those are the main ideas.

As time goes on, I understand more why the TEA Party was born, and it has become clearer why the IRS got involved and why they tried so hard to do away with TEA Party groups.

The country is going bankrupt because of the lack of fiscal responsibility of those in charge of our finances. Doling out money to friends of people in charge and all the give away programs are getting us closer to bankruptcy both financially and morally.

There is no such thing as limited government anymore. There are so many agencies in the government that are not needed so they have to justify their jobs by making more regulations,

coming up with new ideas that don’t work, going after the wrong people and on and on.

The Department of Education should be a states issue. The IRS is way out of control with people like Lois Lerner obeying orders.

The U.S. Constitution no longer exist the way it was written. Some people want to take away people’s right to choose religion and speech and even assemble.

Thats’s Amendment I. The government is doing their best to take away our rights to religion. They are instead prohibiting the free exercise thereof.

No. 2 How about those who would take away our right to defend ourselves by talking about “gun control” every chance he gets.

People swear to uphold the Constitution, but I haven’t figured out what Constitution they have sworn to uphold.

I have told you what the TEA Party stands for, but those against the TEA Party want to bankrupt our country, prefer a dictatorship government and are OK with a lawless society. Of course a society cannot last long with these goals in mind.

Which side are you on?

JACQUELINE K. HUGHES Sumter

EST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Although he is just 22, Andrew Zeller is a fourth-year Ph.D. candidate in mathematics at Purdue University. He is one reason the school is a rare exception to the rule of unreason on American campuses, where freedom of speech is under siege. He and Purdue are evidence that freedom of speech, by which truth is winnowed from error, is most reliably defended by those in whose intellectual pursuits the truth is most rigorously tested by reality.

While in high school in Bowling Green, Ohio, Zeller completed three years of college undergraduate courses.

He arrived at Purdue when its incoming president, Indiana’s former Gov. Mitch Daniels, wanted the university to receive the top “green light” rating from the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE), which combats campus restrictions on speech and rates institutions on their adherence to constitutional principles.

Zeller, president of Purdue’s graduate student government, and some undergraduate leaders urged Daniels to do what he was eager to do: Purdue has become the second university (after Princeton) to embrace the essence of the statement from the University of Chicago that affirms the principle that “education should not be intended to make people comfortable, it is meant to make them think.”

The statement says “it is not the proper role of the university to attempt to shield individuals from ideas and opinions they find unwelcome, disagreeable or even deeply offensive,” and it endorses “a solemn responsibility not only to promote a lively and fearless freedom of debate and deliberation, but also to protect that freedom when others attempt to restrict it.”

Why is Purdue one of just six universities that have now

COMMENTARY aligned with the spirit of the Chicago policy?

Partly because of Daniels’ leadership.

But also because Purdue, Indiana’s land-grant institution, is true to the 1862 Morrill Act’s emphasis on applied George learning. It Will graduates more engineers than any U.S. university other than Georgia Tech. It awards more STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) undergraduate diplomas than all but two public research universities (Penn State and Texas A&M).

Among such universities, a higher percentage of Purdue students graduate in STEM fields than those of any school other than Georgia Tech and the University of California, San Diego.

Scientists and engineers live lives governed by the reality principle: Get the variables wrong, the experiment will fail, even if this seems insensitive; do the math wrong, the equation will tell you, even if that hurts your feelings. Reality does not similarly regulate the production of Marxist interpretations of “Middlemarch” or turgid monographs on the false consciousness of Parisian street sweepers in 1714. Literature professors “deconstructing” Herman Melville cause nothing worse than excruciating boredom in their students. If engineers ignore reality, reality deconstructs their bridges.

The Yale instructor whose email about hypothetically insensitive Halloween costumes incited a mob has resigned her teaching position. She did so in spite of a letter of faculty support organized by a physicist and signed mostly by scientists, including social scientists, rather than human-

ities faculty.

In their scalding 2007 book “Until Proven Innocent: Political Correctness and the Shameful Injustices of the Duke Lacrosse Rape Case,” Stuart Taylor and KC Johnson plausibly argue that Duke’s disgrace -- a fictional rape; hysterical academics trashing due process -- was driven by the faculty Group of 88. Signatories of its manifesto included “only two professors in math, just one in the hard sciences, and zero in law. ... More than 84 percent described their research interests as related to race, class or gender (or all three). The Group of 88 was disproportionately concentrated in the humanities and some social science departments. Fully 80 percent of the African-American studies faculty members signed the statement, followed by women’s studies (72.2 percent) and cultural anthropology (60 percent).”

Higher education is increasingly a house divided. In the sciences and even the humanities, actual scholars maintain the high standards of their noble calling. But in the humanities, especially, and elsewhere, faux scholars representing specious disciplines exploit academia as a jobs program for otherwise unemployable propagandists hostile to freedom of expression.

This is, however, a smattering of what counts as good news in today’s climate: For the first time in FIRE’s 16 years of monitoring academia’s authoritarianism, fewer than half (49.3 percent) of American universities still have what FIRE considers egregiously unconstitutional speech policies. Purdue is one of six universities that eliminated speech codes this year, and one of just 22 with FIRE’s “green light” rating.

THE SUMTER ITEM

DINNER FROM PAGE A1 donated by the community.

Food and care packages containing toiletries and other essentials will be given out after the dinner.

Jehovah is also asking for volunteers to come out and devote at least one hour on Friday.

Shekia Bradford said about 150 people are expected to volunteer this year.

She said the dinner is an opportunity for everyone to come together as a family to lift each other up in love, support and prayer.

“This is also a time when we can reach out and give to those in need just to let them know we care,” Shekia Bradford said.

Donations for the dinner and care packages can be dropped of at Jehovah Missionary Baptist Church, 805 S. Harvin St., between 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

For more information, contact Napoleon Bradford at (803) 847-6068 or (803) 775-4032 extension 109 or Shekia Bradford at kiabradford2010@ gmail.com.

STRESS FROM PAGE A1 “People make decisions during the holidays that may be life changing,” she said.

That could include, for example, the decision to get engaged, or on the opposite spectrum, get separated, she said.

This is also a time when some decide to reconnect with family members they haven’t spoken to in a while or travel long distances to see them.

“There may be some negative attitudes about Christmas if there are unresolved relationships or bad experiences that people experienced during that time,” she said. “The holidays could intensify that.”

Individuals who’ve lost loved ones during the year may also have a tough time adjusting to the holiday season without their family member.

“It’s going to be a different holiday for them, and they may need help and support from others around them,” she said.

This may also be a good time for individuals to do something for themselves, she said.

Tips to prevent holiday stress, according to the Mayo Clinic website, www.mayoclin-

ic.org/, include: • Releasing your feelings. If feeling lonely or isolated, seek out a community, religious or other social event. Volunteering time to help others also is a good way to lift one’s spirits and broaden friendships; • Be realistic. As families change and grow, traditions and rituals often change as well. Choose a few to hold on to and be open to creating new ones; • Set aside differences. Try to accept family members and friends as they are, even if they don’t live up to all of your expectations; • Stick to a budget; • Plan ahead. Set aside specific days for shopping, baking, visiting friends, etc. Plan your menus and then make your shopping list; • Learn to say “no;” • Don’t abandon healthy habits; and • Take a breather.

Seek professional help if you need it.

KEITH GEDAMKE / THE SUMTER ITEM

Hunter, 6 months old, the son of Elizabeth and Brandon Duquette, cracks a smile while visiting Santa at the Heath Pavilion at Swan Lake Iris Gardens on Friday evening.

SANTA FROM PAGE A1 gave the best answer I could think of at the moment: “Well, old Santa likes to bring surprises to those boys and girls who have been especially good — even though it might not have been something on their wish list. So how about if I tell him to do that?”

“Oh yes! Yes!” she squealed, spreading her arms and dancing in a circle. Her mom mouthed a silent “thank you” to me as she told the little girl they had to go.

So we each waved bye, and she happily skipped along beside the shopping cart as they headed toward the deli.

I stood up again and, for the first time, noticed that other shoppers had gathered to witness this exchange. Everyone was smiling. I grinned back at them, a little embarrassed that I had unknowingly put on a show.

Having played Santa before, I knew what I had to do next. I turned my shopping cart

into the next aisle, took a deep breath and let out a loud “HO! HO! HO! MERRY CHRISTMAS!” So I don’t need anything else for Christmas this year. My gift was being able to share a magical Christmas moment with a child I had never before met. It was being able to witness the blind faith of a little girl who still has the world as her playground.

Seeing the world and its beauty through her eyes allowed for me a brief respite from the hurt and pain going on today.

For a few brief moments all was well in the world. It’s a gift a little girl gave an old man that he will cherish for the rest of his life.

Panthers stayed the course during rise to respectability

Second-year strides

Manning aims to be more consistent, competitive team in Ward’s sophomore season as head coach

By STEVE REED The Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Thomas Davis heard the rumblings late last season about how the NFL needed to consider changing its playoff rules to prevent teams with a losing record from playing in the postseason.

He was talking about Davis’ Carolina Panthers, last year’s poster child for what ailed the league.

“We ain’t got to worry RIVERA about that this year, now do we?” the Panthers veteran linebacker said with a wry smile.

Nope, they certainly do not.

The Panthers (13-0) have gone from being the joke of the NFC South last December with a 3-8-1 record to darlings of the league in a little more than a year.

They’ve won 17 straight regular season games since — tied for the fourth-longest streak in NFL history — and have become Super Bowl favorites with a chance to join the 1972 Miami Dolphins as the only undefeated champions.

The team’s rise to respectability has been impressive, but not overly complicated.

“We went through the growing pains,” Davis said. “But we came together as a team and never lost focus. There were a lot of things that went against us last year, but we stayed together, stayed the course and we put the work in. That is what it boils down to.”

The Panthers didn’t bring in any bigname free agents. They didn’t fire any coaches. And they didn’t make a change at quarterback.

Instead, they remained true to their blueprint and stayed the course. They allowed young players to develop into core players. They added moderately priced, mid-level free agents in the offseason who were familiar with the team’s system. And Ron Rivera and his staff kept on coaching.

The Panthers have been built around quarterback Cam Newton and middle linebacker Luke Kuechly, and they add continue to pieces to complement them.

Often times that means utilizing rookies and young players.

MVP Kendall’s 3 TDs help N.C. roll by S.C. 54-39 in Shrine Bowl

By JOHN CLAYTON The Associated Press SPARTANBURG — Austin Kendall threw for a pair of touchdowns and ran for another to lead North Carolina to a 54-39 win over South Carolina Saturday in the 79th Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas “We talked to our kids from the very start that South Carolina had a streak, and it’s three in a row,” North Carolina head coach John Kirby of Eastern Alamance High School. “We said we wanted to break the streak and our kids did a pretty nice job of doing that.”

Kendall threw for a pair of touchdowns and ran for another to lead North Carolina. Kendall, an Oklahoma commit from Cuthbertson High School, completed 13 of 16 passes for 190 yards and was named his team’s offensive MVPs. The 93 total points scored broke the previous high of 80 points in 2000.

North Carolina scored touchdowns on each of its first five possessions to jump out to a 35-12 lead.

“Keeping that lead the whole game really helped us a lot,” Kendall said.

Cornell Powell, a Clemson commit from J.H. Rose High School, returned a kickoff 98 yards with 4:06 to go in the first quarter for North Carolina. Powell also had a 27-yard touchdown reception from Kendall in the opening quarter.

Powell and A.C. Reynolds running back Rico Dowdle scored two touchdowns apiece for North Carolina.

Rayvon Witherspoon (1) is one of two returning starters for a Manning High squad that looks to continue to make strides in head coach Stevie Ward’s second year at the helm.

By justin driggers justin@theitem.com Second-year Manning head boys basketball coach Stevie Ward has already seen his squad take tremendous strides since last season.

The Monarchs were 5-3 heading into last night’s game with Kingstree needing just one more win to

match last year’s season total (6-16).

“We’ve made tremendous strides since last season,” Ward said. “The guys have put a lot of work in to this year; a lot of work in the summer.

“We feel very confident we’ll be very competitive this year in the region. We’ve got some fine-tuning to do during the Christmas tournament and hopefully we’ll be ready to

go in January.”

MHS was 2-8 in Region VI-3A a year ago and in order to make waves this season the Monarchs will have to rely on both returning talent and an influx of newer players.

Manning has seven returnees from last year’s squad including two

Experienced Lady Monarchs surging under Mazyck By justin driggers justin@theitem.com The Manning High School girls basketball team had to adjust to a new head coach in Darren Mazyck and new up-tempo style of offense last season.

The Lady Monarchs finished 11-11 and 3-7 in Region VI-3A, but there were signs of progress.

“Last year was a learning year for me and a learning year for them,” Mazyck said. “But those last two games (wins against Marlboro County and Hartsville) I think showed the girls what this offense is capable of when you run it up tempo with very few turnovers.

“It’s one of those things that doesn’t happen overnight. We were a work-in-progress last year, and still are in some ways this year, but we’ve started out and played much better so far.”

Manning worked hard in the offseason to continue that upward trend and it has apparently paid off as the Lady Monarchs were 7-0 heading into last night’s game against Kingstree.

A big reason why is experience -MHS has all five starters returning from last season led by Makeba Harvin, the lone senior on the squad.

Harvin averaged a double-double of 11 points and 13 rebounds for the

Manning’s Kayla Goldsmith (41) and Keyshaunna Walker (20) are two of the five returning starters for the Lady Monarchs who are off to a hot start in their second season under head coach Darren Mazyck.

Lady Monarchs a year ago to go along with two steals and one assist.

She’s on that pace again this year after averaging 14,7 points and 16.6 rebounds through the first seven games.

Sophomore Mahogany Green is next with 14.4 points, five rebounds and 4.1 steals per game. Keyshaunna Walker is averaging 13.4 points and four steals per game and Kayla Goldsmith’s 10.6 points and 10.4 re-

bounds give MHS four players in the starting lineup posting double figures each game.

The fifth starter, junior Ambria Brunson, is contributing nearly five points a game as well along with newcomer Ariyonia Busby.

“It obviously helps to have so many returning starters, especially with the caliber of talent that we

Utah running back Joe Williams (28) hurdles a pair of BYU players during the first half of the Utes’ 35-28 Las Vegas Bowl victory on Saturday in in Las Vegas.

Utah holds off furious BYU rally LAS VEGAS — BYU kept turning the ball over, and Utah kept scoring.

About the only question left after five first quarter touchdowns by the Utes was how big their Las Vegas Bowl rout would be. Until BYU regained its composure, that is, and made it a game to remember.

Utah took advantage of a disastrous start by BYU, scoring five first-quarter touchdowns on turnovers — including two interceptions

by Tevin Carter — before holding on Saturday to beat the Cougars 35-28.

Utah (10-3) used its string of first quarter turnovers to build a 35-0 lead, then managed to hold on as BYU (9-4) mounted a comeback that brought the Cougars to within one score with 3:23 left. BYU couldn’t get the ball back, though, losing in Bronco Mendenhall’s last game after 11 years as coach.

After the game, BYU said it hired former Cougars running back Kalani Sitake as head coach.

CAMELLIA BOWL Appalachian State 31 Ohio 29

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Zach Matics capped a wild Camellia Bowl with a 23yard field goal on the final play to lift Appalachian State to a 31-29 victory over Ohio (8-5) on Saturday night.

The Mountaineers (11-2) moved from their own 21 in the final 1:42 after rallying from a 24-7 deficit in the fourth quarter only to lose the lead again. It was their first bowl game since moving up to FBS. Quarterback Taylor Lamb had a 32-yard scramble then handed off several times to Jalin Moore, who had a 15-yarder and a 6-yarder to set up the kick.

A safety and Josiah Yazdani’s 21-yard field goal had given Ohio (8-5) the lead.

NEW MEXICO BOWL ARIZONA 45 NEW MEXICO 37 ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —

Anu Solomon threw two touchdowns passes and ran for another to help Arizona hold off pesky New Mexico in the New Mexico Bowl.

Arizona (7-6) and its quick offense overwhelmed the Lobos (7-6) in a game that saw New Mexico surge late after being down as many of 18 points.

Jared Baker ran for 107 yards and three touchdowns, and Cayleb Jones had 182 yards receiving and a TD. Linebacker Scooby Wright III had two sacks and 11 solo tackles.

CELEBRATION BOWL North Carolina A&T 41 Alcorn State 34 ATLANTA — Tarik Cohen rushed for 295 touchdowns and three touchdowns of 73 or more yards Saturday, and North Carolina A&T (10-2) used a slew of big plays for a 41-34 win over Alcorn State (9-4) in the Celebration Bowl at the Georgia Dome.

Osweiler still in charge ( for now) as Broncos face Steelers on road

By WILL GRAVES The Associated Press

Associated Press

Carolina quarterback Cam Newton is an MVP candidate with a career-high 28 touchdown passes this year.

His play and a commitment to staying the course are big reasons why the Panthers are undefeated.

first to lose a game, didn’t have enough weapons to win a Super Bowl.

At 10-0, the Panthers were underdogs against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day. “People are going to find something,” fullback Mike Tolbert said.

But Carolina isn’t listening; its formula is working.

They’re first in points per game on offense and have run for at least 100 yards in 24 straight games.

They rank third on defense and lead the league with 33 takeaways, resulting in an NFL-high 117 points.

Newton has been a huge part of the team’s success.

Offensive coordinator Mike Shula turned to a no-huddle offense late last season, and Newton has been thriving ever since.

Newton has thrown for a career-high 28 touchdown passes this season and run for seven more and established himself as a leading MVP candidate.

His QB rating in the fourth quarter is among the league’s best.

“You can’t really put a finger on it, but he just has it,” Cotchery said of the fifth-year quarterback. “He lives for those moments. A lot of people shy away from those moments, but he just embraces those opportunities.”

And so are the Panthers.

PITTSBURGH — The NFL’s all-time passing leader’s aching body is on the mend. The shelf life on his replacement’s honeymoon may be nearing its expiration date.

No pressure Brock Osweiler. All you have to do if you want to have a chance at holding onto your job whenever Peyton Manning heals up is take the Denver Broncos on the road and find a way to beat a team that hasn’t lost a game in December in two years.

“Whatever happens in the future happens in the future,” Osweiler said.

“That doesn’t pertain to me right now. That’s out of my control.”

What is in control is finding a way for the Broncos (10-3) to keep pace with the surging Pittsburgh Steelers (8-5), who will take a ninegame December winning streak into a stretch that will determine whether they chase down a playoff spot for the second straight season. Osweiler’s terrific start while taking over for Manning hit its first major speedbump last week against Oakland, when he was sacked five times as the Raiders rallied for a 15-12 win.

“I need to get the ball out quicker and I need to find out outlet quicker,” Osweiler said. “That’s exactly what I’m going to do. I’m going to learn from it, grow and get better.”

If Denver wants to fend off rapidly closing Kansas City for the AFC West title, Osweiler doesn’t really have a choice. He does have the luxury of having the NFL’s top-ranked defense wearing the same jersey, though the Broncos’ selfproclaimed “No Fly Zone” secondary will face its toughest test of the season from Ben Roethlisberger and arguably the league’s best passing attack.

Or maybe, inarguably the best. At least, according to the Steelers.

“Of course we are,” wide receiver Darrius HeywardBey said. “You’ve got to be confident in yourself. ... If

we were the last offense in the league and we had guys that had 30 catches, I wouldn’t be saying that statement.”

Heyward-Bey isn’t bragging exactly. Just call it the confidence born from being part of a group that is averaging 346 yards passing in the six games since Roethlisberger returned from a sprained left knee. Opponents have tried a little bit of everything: from zone to man-to-man coverage to a mix of both with largely ineffective results. If the Broncos want to play at the line of scrimmage and try to disrupt Pittsburgh’s timing, that’s fine by the Steelers.

“We’re all fast enough to run by everybody,” Heyward-Bey said.

Other things to look for as the Steelers try to beat the Broncos at home for the first time in 18 years.

HAPPY HOMECOMING? Denver wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders began his career with the Steelers before signing with Denver in 2014, where he developed into a Pro Bowler last season. While Sanders looks fondly back on his time in Pittsburgh, he’s well aware the feeling might be mutual after statements he made shortly after joining the Broncos were construed by some as a shot at Roethlisberger. “I hope I don’t get booed because it’s all love,” Sanders said.

“They both provide great leadership,” Ward said. “They both played AAU ball this summer, so that’s helped both them and us out tremendously. We’ve cut down on turnovers and we’re playing much better as a team.”

Junior Greg Canty is another starter who saw significant minutes coming off the bench in 2014-15. He’s joined in the top five by newcomers Devonte Felder and Jalen White.

White has already had a significant impact by providing the Monarchs with another big scoring threat besides Witherspoon. He actually leads the team at around 16 points a game so far.

White is also among a number of players who can handle the basketball — something Manning lacked last season, Ward said.

“We’ve got a lot of different guys who can dribble the ball (upcourt) if need be,” he said.

“The guys on the court are usually pretty interchangeable and can play a lot of different positions. That (versatility) is something you need in this region.”

‘Snuffy’s Angels’ meet for 3 decades Group meets once a year for fellowship, reminiscence

BY IVY MOORE ivy@theitem.com

O

ne of the biggest hits on 1980s’ TV was “Charlie’s

Angels,” which featured a trio of beautiful female detectives who answered to an unseen man known only as Charlie. At the same time, the University of South Carolina Sumter had its own “Snuffy’s Angels,” three work-study students who worked in maintenance under Ed “Snuffy” Wolski.

“They called us that because we were ‘hip’ during that era,” said Glenn Peagler, now executive director of Sumter Behavioral Services.

“It was the era of miniskirts and short (cut-off) jeans.”

The other “Angels,” Tom Bochette and Goliath Brunson, laughed heartily.

So did the newer members of the group, some of whom have only been participating in an annual “deer supper” for 24 or 25 years.

Bochette, Brunson and Peagler became fast friends through working together, and although they no longer see each other every day, they make it a point to get together once a year in December. Last Monday night, they met in the garage at USC Sumter for the 30th consecutive year, joined by newer members Jeff Lingefelt, Allen Turner, Ron Price and Kent Oliver.

The only requirement for joining the group is that members must work, or have worked, in maintenance at USC Sumter. That somehow made the location in a USC garage full of tools appropriate.

Likewise, the annual supper has no real regulations. Infor-

The men known as Snuffy’s Angels acquired this Christmas tree several years ago. It’s always glowing and overlooking the dining table.

Tom Bochette, right, one of the original Snuffy’s Angels, talks about the camaraderie of the group of seven men that meet annually for a Christmas dinner and to reminisce and catch up with each other. They’ve been doing it for 30 years. Seated from left, they are Jeff Lingefelt, Goliath Brunson, Kent Oliver, Allen Turner and Ron Price. mally, though, the menu for what Bochette calls the “deer supper” always includes venison, and Peagler does the cooking on a grill. Others also cook their side dishes on site or bring them.

“We’ve gone upscale since the first dinner,” he said. “We used to have to bring in a grill and take it away when we finished, and it was a charcoal grill.”

Now, Peagler’s cooking with gas.

Monday night’s menu was an appetizer of deer sausage, kabobs made from deer tenderloin, freshly cut and cooked French fries and baked beans — a real man’s meal, Turner said. He’s the “french fry man.”

“I made the cake,” Price said, as Lingefelt held up two packages of Christmasthemed Little Debbie cakes.

The food is usually excellent, the men agreed, “but we’ve had some snafus,” Peagler said. “One year we marinated and sauteed the deer in mustard. It was terrible.”

He’s cooked in the cold, heat, rain and sleet. “Sometimes someone would step outside and hold an umbrella over me and the fire,” he said.

And although the food is good, it’s the conversation that’s the real point of the annual dinner.

“This is the time we catch up on what’s going on with each other and our families,” Peagler said.

“We’ve watched each others’ kids grow into adults,” Lingevelt said.

“Of course, we swap stories,

Turner and Price eye a plate full of venison kabobs, freshly cut french fries and homemade baked beans.

The seven men who meet annually for fellowship always cook a meal in the garage at USC Sumter, where each worked in maintenance at some point. While the food is good, they say the camaraderie is the reason for the event. too,” he added.

Brunson recalled “painting the outside of USC Sumter one year” with Peagler.

“WDXY radio used to play oldies at 11 o’clock every morning,” Peagler said, “and they’d take requests. Our theme song was ‘King of the Road.’”

Bochette and Lingefelt recalled delivering The Item on their bicycles for 25 cents a week, Bochette covering his territory that stretched “from Purdy Street to Second Mill to Pitts Road and Greenswamp Road.”

Before eating, Lingefelt got out his calendar, and the seven men agreed on a date for next year’s dinner. They put the food on their plates, Bochette said the blessing, and they all sat down and began to eat; it got very quiet for a few minutes — then some of them started reminiscing about past experiences.

Peagler recalled introducing his brother David to Goliath when they ran into him on campus: “I said, David, this is Goli-

ath; Goliath, this is David. Goliath said, ‘You don’t have any stones in your pocket, do you?’”

Despite having heard the story before, the group laughed.

Glowing behind the table, on a weathered work bench, sat the men’s official Christmas tree. It’s artificial, with lights, balls and tinsel. It’s also a little bedraggled, like an artificial Charlie Brown tree.

Picking gifts turns party into chore DEAR ABBY — I am an administrative assistant. Part of my job is to make the arrangements for our department Dear Abby Christmas ABIGAIL party. Every VAN BUREN year we go out in a group of about 15 people. I no longer wish to attend these events. Group settings make me nervous. In addition, we all have to buy gender-neutral gifts to exchange.

I have tried to talk with my boss about it, but he doesn’t seem to understand. We have bi-monthly staff meetings, and after everyone is done with business, we always have discussion time for things other than work. Most of us have lunch together every day and talk then. We also have group birthday celebrations four times a year.

I get a sick feeling every time I think about going to this party, and then the headache of trying to choose a gift that won’t be made fun of. (I am not good at it.) Last year I called in sick so I wouldn’t have to attend. I have tried taking a personal day off, but then my boss gets mad at me. Should I be forced to go to this?

Not a gift picker in St. Paul

DEAR NOT A GIFT PICKER — No, you shouldn’t. Because you find these functions to be onerous, consider putting in a short appearance at the Christmas party and then “rushing off” because you have a “schedule conflict.” As to your gift selection problem, at this time of year most people are inundated with catalogs with all sorts of offerings. Open a few, select any item in your price range and order it. Or consider a gift card. Problem solved.

DEAR ABBY — After reading about the woman who accidentally passed gas in the office after eating “beans, the musical fruit,” I have to share the following: An elderly married couple were attending church one Sunday when halfway through the sermon the wife turned to her husband and whispered, “I just let out a long, silent toot!

What should I do?” The husband replied, “Replace the battery in your hearing aid!”

Online reader in Texas DEAR ONLINE READER — Versions of that joke have been around since Cary Grant told it to my mother — but it’s still funny.

Thanks for sharing.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

The information used in this article was taken from The Sumter Item archives.

One of the earliest known letters from Santa addressed to Sumter was published in The Sumter Daily Item on Dec. 10, 1932, and addressed to then Mayor F.B. Creech: “Dear Mr. Creech: I am very glad to say that I am going to visit Sumter again this year and will arrive there on Thursday, December 15th. I always enjoy my trips to Sumter and hope to see you and many more when I arrive.

“Sincerely, Santa Claus.”

“Mr. Creech is very glad to publish this letter and let the people of the city know of Santa’s visit. Last year he was met by a large crowd, and it is hoped that this year there will be even more out to greet him. Santa

Santa Claus and Tiffany Hinson, then 3, daughter of Tracy and Linda Hinson of Camden, try to calm down Tiffany’s cousin Samantha Weatherford, who was turning 1 on Dec. 23, during Santa’s visit to Jessamine Mall in December 1989.

Claus will arrive at the Claremont Hotel at 6:15 where he will be met by the Mayor and the Sumter Municipal Band. He will be escorted up Main Street on a decorated truck to the Court House where he has something to say to the people, especially the children. This year it is hoped to make Santa’s reception even larger than it has been in the past.

“This year the choirs of all the churches of the city and county are asked to be on the steps of the Court House no later than 6:30 on the day Santa Claus will arrive. Christmas carols will be sung, and it is hoped that everybody will join in the singing. The steps of the Court House will be reserved for the singers.”

There was to be no caroling, no opening of presents. This evening was just for camaraderie and “fellowship,” Bochette said. The important things.

“The food’s really good, too,” Price said.

Peagler added, “USC Sumter has been good to all of us. Because of our education we’ve been able to advance.”

The serious conversation didn’t last long, as some tales started up and “may be embellished,” Peagler said.

“Every once in a while, there’s some outright lies,” Bochette said, laughing.

The affection among the group was almost palpable; as Peagler said, “It’s not often you find a

“We’ve had some good times,” Bochette said. The annual ritual, he noted “has lasted longer than most marriages.”

Not much has really changed over the years, he said.

“Thirty years ago we were 40 pounds lighter and in good shape,” Peagler pointed out.

“All of us were skinny,” Bochette said, “but we’re still a goodlooking bunch.

“If you put our picture in the paper, our phones will be ringing off the hook.”

• Melton Barker of Hollywood will arrive in Sumter soon to produce a two-reel comedy, according to an announcement by K.E. Ward of the Sumter Theater. The local play will be a kidnap story and will be shown at the Sumter Theater when completed.

Barker has the distinction of having discovered Spanky McFarland, who is now starring in “Our Gang” comedies.

The entire picture will be made in Sumter and around 100 local children will be used in the cast.

• Kermit E. Ward, Iris Festival committee chairman, announced this morning that the date of the festival had been changed from May 23 to May 30 because of the lateness of the season. Recent cool weather has retarded the growth of the Japanese iris at Swan Lake, he said, and the committee has been notified

by H C. Bland, owner of the gardens that no iris will be in bloom on May 23.

• J.R. White Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. J.R. White of Sumter, was recently selected as the best drill sergeant in the first battalion of the first regiment at Clemson College. J.R. is a member of the 1941-42 senior platoon. He is a graduate of Sumter High School.

• Mayesville High School made it two straight over Nichols High here yesterday afternoon, thereby winning the sectional Class “C” baseball championship and earning the right to meet Hardeeville for the Lower State title.

The score was 12 to 8. Ellis Cook hurled the full game for Mayesville and gave up 11 hits, but was steady in the pinches and helped his own cause by blasting two long triples and a single and driving in three runs. Gene Bradley, who alternated at shortstop and left field, got the only home run of the game.

• With the election of new officers, the Tuomey Hospital Auxiliary closes a very successful year. Mrs. Frank Chandler is the newly elected president; Mrs. W.D. Boykin, vice-president; Mrs. R.W. Gerald, secretary; and Mrs. C.P.

• Three staff changes in District 17 schools were announced by city schools superintendent Dr. L.C. McArthur. James Wendell Stover Jr., principal of Bates Junior High School, has been named to succeed J.H.

• Tommy Hall’s towering two-run homer in the fifth inning gave Furman’s Indians a 2-0 baseball victory over Hillcrest at the Furman field in the season opener for both clubs. Until Hall’s big blast, he and Hillcrest’s John McTamney had been locked in a tight pitcher’s duel.

• For a man who had just watched his team drop its opening baseball game of the season, Edmunds coach Bob Matthews was in pretty good spirits about the outlook for the rest of the season. The Gamecocks had fallen to Brookland-Cayce’s defending State AAA Champions, 6-4 but Matthews searched for a silver lining and found one.

“This is a young club,” he said. “Oh, we made a lot of mistakes against B-C but you’ve got to remember that this is a whole new infield this year and it takes time. Some of these boys have never played with us before and they were a little nervous about that first game.”

25 YEARS AGO – 1990 Dec. 14-20 Using a 50-year-old state statute, Gov. Carroll Campbell plans to appoint a temporary replacement to fill Sumter Sen. Phil Leventis’ seat while he’s deployed to the Middle East. But Leventis, an S.C. Air National Guard pilot, who is expected to leave for the Persian Gulf in January, says he doesn’t think the state constitution allows him to be replaced. Lt. Gov. Nick Theodore, House Speaker Bob Sheheen and Senate Clerk Frank Caggiano all agree with Leventis.

• It’s Dec. 7, and Sumter native Maj. Wally Vaughn of the U.S. Air Force is decked out in desert camouflage, wearing a smile and a Santa Claus hat, spending the holidays in Saudi Arabia. His mother, Florence Vaughn, is concerned but resigned. “He’s only doing his duty,” said Mrs. Vaughn, a retired teacher from Crosswell Drive Elementary School. “As a matter of fact, I hope this will all end very soon and men and

women will be back with their family and friends.”

• Hillcrest parlayed its pressure defense into a bevy of transition baskets en route to an 83-56 win over BrooklandCayce at the Hillcrest gym.

The Wildcats scored the first seven points of the game, five of them coming from forward Anthony Keith. Following a Bearcat basket, Hillcrest ran off nine consecutive points to take a 16-2 lead and the Wildcats were ahead 22-6 at the end of the first quarter.

• Work for the homeless, the sick and the desperate has brought national recognition for Sumter resident C. Raymond Wilcox. On Friday, President George Bush named Wilcox the 327th “Daily Point of Light” for dedicated service to his community and country. “Ray basically is the quintessential volunteer,” said Judy Bodie, who nominated Wilcox for the award. Bodie, who runs the local Retired Senior Volunteer Program through Santee Senior Services, said she nominated Wilcox because of “his positive attitude to life and his willingness to help others.”

Sumter Mayor Steve Creech and South Carolina Gov. Carroll Campbell also wrote letters on behalf of Wilcox.

• James Turner was named Firefighter of the Year Thursday at the Graham Volunteer Fire Station’s annual Christmas dinner and awards banquet. The rural fire station also presented Sumter County Councilman Chuck Fienning, who represents the Graham area, a memorial award for community service. Turner, 25, was named the station’s top firefighter based on a point system taking into account the number of fire runs made, training and exercise completed, community and station activities and attendance at monthly meetings, said Darold Graham, the station captain.

• Although his week at Myrtle Beach didn’t get off to the greatest of starts, Aubrey Brooks was all smiles as it came to a conclusion.

Brooks, a senior linebacker from Sumter High, was a member of the South team which defeated the North squad 29-28 in the 43rd annual North-South All-Star Football Game. The game played at Myrtle Beach Memorial Stadium, features standout high school football players from throughout South Carolina.

• Stocking and organizing a food warehouse isn’t easy. The work is complicated by the ar-

rival of new shipments, a shortage of workers and a steady flow of people who come in looking for help. But for Eloise Levinsen, her volunteer work is rewarding because “even when I’m bad it makes me feel good,” she said.

“I’m doing what God wants me to.” The holiday season is busy and frustrating for many people, but giving the gift of time to someone in need may put you back in the Christmas spirit.

• Dick and Jackie Miller are far apart this holiday season, but it will still be a special time for the couple.

Dick and Jackie married in 1972, and Jackie left her home in Taiwan. And for much of their married life, Jackie was unable to send Dick a letter, write him a note or even send a Christmas card. But since Dick left for Saudi Arabia in August with his Air Force unit, Jackie has been able not only to write to him, but also to send him a variety of home-baked cookies – and to manage the checkbook, bills and mail. Jackie can do these things because she has learned to read and write in English.

• Clarendon County made its recycling debut with the opening of the county’s first recycling center on S.C. 261.

The recycling service center is located within a cluster of trash dumpsters on S.C. 261 about five miles from Manning across from Home Branch Road (Secondary 51).

The site has bins for glass, newspapers and aluminum products, and the county plans to expand it to include plastic and other materials.

• With a little help from the state, Santee Senior Services hopes to construct a new multipurpose senior citizens center for the rising number of Sumterites who are 50 or older. The center, if approved by the state, will replace the senior citizens hall at Memorial Park in 1993 and serve as the headquarters for the local agency. Sumter County has nearly 12,000 residents who are 50 or older and is expected to have more than 15,000 by the end of the 1990s, said Kay Jamerson-McDonagh, executive director of Santee Senior Services.

The agency’s Memorial Center on North Salem Avenue provides hot meals and recreational activities to about 80 local senior citizens a day. But McDonagh says the 3,500-square-foot building is too small for other needed activities and services.

Jewelry Wholesale develops relationships

BY JIM HILLEY jim@theitem.com “It’s less about the money than the relationship,” said jeweler Johnny Osteen at Jewelry Wholesale Inc., 41 E. Wesmark Blvd. “If you don’t have a relationship, you don’t have that second generation come in.”

While many jewelers woo their customers with expensive showrooms and an upscale atmosphere, Jewelry Wholesale concentrates on making customers feel welcome by being friendly and selling quality jewelry for less.

The company was originally started by John Copeland in 1980 as Copeland Coin and Metal, said Suzanne Horton, John Copeland’s daughter.

She now runs the company with her brother William Copeland. Their father, John Osteen, had previously worked as a manager at Jones Chevrolet before going into business for himself.

Business is in the family’s blood, apparently, as Suzanne Horton said her grandmother had an ice cream parlor and general store at the site on Broad Street earlier.

“Right next to Wendy’s,” she said.

The company sold Add-ABeads, cluster rings and waterfall rings and eventually expanded into jewelry, Suzanne Copeland said.

She said she has worked in the store for much of her life.

“I started when I was 14,” she said.

Suzanne’s cousin Johnny Osteen also began working at the store as an intern jeweler when he was 14.

“We have something to offer everyone at every price point,” Suzanne Horton said. “We offer the most for your money.”

Besides offering top-quality jewelry, she said Jewelry Wholesale prides itself in making customers feel welcomed and appreciated.

“Whatever business you bring to us, you are just as important as everyone else,” she said.

She said a lot of the estate jewelry is acquired locally or through people trading it in.

“They haven’t had the best year; sales have been a little soft,” she said.

One item that is hot right now is engagement rings.

“A lot of people want to get engaged when all the family is present for the holidays,” she said. “Who wouldn’t want to share that experience?”

Johnny Osteen, who besides his years as an intern attending the Holland School of Jewelers in Selma, Alabama, said

developing relationships with customers is important.

“I’ve developed quite a few friendships with customers, and I know most of my customers by first name,” he said.

Because of those relationships, the store now has parents who bought their nuptial jewelry bringing in their children when the time comes.

He said it is also important to be out in the community through his church and civic organizations.

Establishing a relationship with vendors is also important, he said.

“We can buy it cheaper and sell for less than competitors in Columbia,” he said.

Suzanne Horton said Jewelry Wholesale is a full-service jeweler and does not compete with retail outlets such as Walmart or Kmart.

“We are at another level of quality, and we stand behind what we sell,” she said.

Warm weather leaves stores in the cold during holiday season

BY ANNE D’INNOCENZIO AP Retail Writer NEW YORK — The unseasonably warm weather has left some people feeling cold about holiday shopping.

Rosemarie Nowicki, who lives in Berkeley Heights, N.J., finally spent some of her holiday budget last weekend buying coats online for her family because she hated the thought of being stuck in a store with such mild temperatures outside.

“It’s hard to get into the holiday spirit; I’ve been walking around in short-sleeve shirts and capri leggings,” Nowicki says. “I was certainly not going to the mall.”

Turns out, lots of shoppers feel the same way as temperatures in cities across the country, including New York and Philadelphia, near record levels for December. The balmy weather hasn’t done anything to entice Americans to venture out and shop, which has hurt sales at stores that depend on the holiday season for up to 40 percent of their annual revenue.

Planalytics, a weather forecasting firm for retailers, estimates so far this season mall-based clothing stores have lost $343 million in sales compared

with last year. That’s the largest weather-related loss since 1998 when a devastating ice storm hit parts of the Northeast.

Sales of cold-weather items have been particularly icy. Sales of women’s boots in New York, for instance, are down 24 percent for the first half of December, according to Planalytics.

And First Data, which analyzes payments at stores and online, said fur sales fell 20 percent from Oct. 31 through Monday.

“Winter didn’t happen and so the clothes, the scarves are not selling,” said Ron Friedman, head of the retail and consumer products group at accounting firm Marcum LLP. As a result, he says shoppers will see discounts of 75 percent in after Christmas.

The fair-weathered shopping challenge underscores how U.S. consumers, still affected by the Great Recession, remain strategic in their buying patterns. It’s a habit they picked up during the economic downturn that’s remained ever since.

Many shoppers only buy what they can wear, so it stands to reason that they’re not buying coats, boots and hats this year. And since cold-weather items are also hot gifts during the hol-

iday shopping season, many of those items are left on store shelves. C. Britt Beemer, America’s Research Group, a consumer research firm, estimates that cold-weather items account for 26 percent of overall holiday clothing sales.

The National Retail Federation, the nation’s largest retail group, is still sticking by its prediction earlier in the season that sales in November and December will rise 3.7 percent to $630.5 billion. That would mark a slowdown from the 4.1 percent growth last year.

And figures from First Data show higher overall sales growth for the period from Oct. 31 through Monday compared to the year-ago period. Analysts think that online businesses are actually benefiting from the warm weather, offsetting sluggish traffic at the stores.

“Warm weather has helped online shopping rather than hurt it,” said Beemer, adding that people who don’t want to be stuck at a mall are buying gift cards online.

Still, the unusually warm weather is a concern.

Marc Kaufman, CEO of the upscale furrier that operates one store in New York City but mostly sells online, says

business is down 5 percent. The decline in its Northeast business has been partially offset by its online operations. But Kaufman figures if the weather was colder, sales for the holiday season would be up 30 percent.

“If it weren’t for online, I would be in severe trouble,” he said.

The cold reception by shoppers is forcing retailers to be creative to try to lure them into stores.

Some stores are offering bigger discounts than they ordinarily would.

Macy’s, for example, is advertising 70 percent off some men’s sweaters and 75 percent off children’s outerwear this weekend, while Kohl’s is slashing prices of puffy jackets to $39.99 from the original $100.

Sears is relocating its grills to the front part of its outdoor living sections in the Northeast, where it’s been unseasonable warm.

And Overstock.com is featuring resort wear such as swimsuits on its web site before Christmas. Overstock. com, which doesn’t own the inventory, said it’s directing shoppers to what they need now.

“When there’s no snow, we don’t advertise coats,” said Amy Browning, merchandise manager of Overstock. com.

THE SUMTER ITEM

Call the newsroom at: (803) 774-1225 | E-mail: trevor@theitem.com

All the ‘stupid’ deer must be dead I

’m not going to beat around the bush here; I’ve had the worst deer season that I have ever had, bar none! I have seen a grand total of three deer during legal shooting hours. I know the deer are there because I’ve got pictures of them; they are just 100% nocturnal.

I’m not alone. I was standing in line at Simpson’s the other day and the guys two folks behind me were talking about their season as well, one referred to the season as a “bust.”

It has been pretty bad, what with the flood, the mosquitoes and the warmer than normal weather; but still, why am I not seeing more deer during normal shooting hours?

Well, while scanning the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources website, www.dnr.sc.gov, I may have stumbled over a possible answer; all the stupid ones are dead.

On the website is a report of a new bill which now resides in the House of Representatives that would restrict the harvest of white-tail deer in South Carolina. If passed, and

I feel sure it will be, the limit on bucks would be four per year and doe tags would still be available for sale.

Earle Every deer Woodward taken would AFIELD & have to be tagged using AFLOAT a system like what we are currently using for does.

I’ve got no problem with the proposed changes. It has been a very long time since I’ve shot more than eight deer in a season; one season I took nine and I’ll never do that again. I had a hard time using and getting rid of all the meat. I now try to take two per year because that’s about all my lovely bride Sherri and I can use.

So, why do I say all the stupid ones are dead?

From the website, “According to Charles Ruth, DNR Deer and Wild Turkey Program Coordinator, ‘The state’s deer population has changed in recent years and although there are still some areas

where deer numbers and reports of agricultural damage remain high, the overall population has decreased as indicated by a 35 percent decline in harvest. Reasons for the decline include habitat changes related to forest management, extremely liberal deer harvest over the last two decades, and the complete colonization of the state by coyotes since the turn of the century.”

So, just doing some simple math; if you were used to seeing nine deer at a time, and now you only see six, that’s roughly a 35 percent decrease.

Let’s say for the sake of argument that the three or four that always showed up right at “deer time,” and consequently the ones that you shot, were the decrease, the 35 percent, and the ones that always showed up after dark and before dawn are the ones that survived. No wonder it’s been a rough season. No wonder I have to write this article instead of writing one about the monster I took last weekend.

I realize that some of the reasons Mr. Ruth quoted are not within our control, things like forest management. I

don’t suppose a man that wants to plant pine trees as an investment for the future is really worried that a stand of pines is of little use to a deer herd; that’s out of my control, but things like the number of deer I take each year is not.

Also, while predator hunting has not really taken off in South Carolina, maybe it’s time to start.

With coyotes in every county and fully established in most, there is cause for alarm.

A full grown, healthy deer is not really something that a coyote can take down, but a fawn is a different story, and studies indicate that they are taking their share.

I’ve seen a few hunting shows that feature predator hunts and it doesn’t look like it takes a whole lot of special equipment, just a speaker and recorder to play the sounds of prey in distress. For the guy looking for a cheaper alternative, there are predator calls that you use just like a duck call. I think I could take part in predator hunting if it would help stabilize the deer herd.

We’ll never be able to rid

ourselves of coyotes; hey, the ranchers out west have been trying for centuries without luck, but if we can hold them down a bit it may help.

And like I said earlier, I don’t need a truck load of deer, just enough to have some cube steak and hamburger for the coming year, so I like to take a nice doe early and then try to wait on a big buck. If the buck doesn’t show up by December, then another doe may be in order. I don’t need to shoot everything in the woods, just what I need for meat. I can control how many deer I take on the high end.

Other states have a one- or two-buck limit and very short seasons by our standards and they have huge deer herds. I don’t think I have a problem with a limit on bucks and does. I’m at least willing to give this idea a couple of years to play out. If DNR has the success with the deer herd that they have had with the wild turkey flock, then I think in the very near future we’ll have some more stupid deer that show up during “deer time”.

Try your hand at trout on the Lower Saluda in Columbia

BY S.C. DNR South Carolina Department of Natural Resources stocked approximately 18,000 rainbow and brown trout into the lower Saluda River near Columbia on Dec. 15 using a helicopter and a specialized lift bucket. Of that total, 13,000 are brown trout and 5,000 are rainbow trout for a total more than 3,000 pounds. This accounts for around two-thirds of the trout stocked in the Saluda with the rest stocked by truck.

Many of these trout were tagged with what’s known as a T-bar tag attached just below the dorsal fin of the trout. Each tag will be individually numbered, providing a means of gathering data on a particular fish.

Anglers can assist DNR biologists by reporting their catches of tagged trout. Details on this procedure can be found on the DNR Web page at http://www.dnr.sc.gov/troutstudy/report.html as well as kiosks located at

BY S.C. DNR

Rainbow trout are characterized by their bands of iridescent stripes of color down their sides. Watch a brief video of the 2013 stocking operation at https://youtu. be/y1LLJkqKkjg. several public access points along the river.

This is being done as part of a study to collect information on the river’s trout population, such as survival rates and the number of fish that succumb to natural and angler mortality as well as information on the fishes’ growth rates.

The trout stocking is also an example of partnership between state agencies. State Law Enforcement Division pilots are able to continue re-

quired training and helicopter stocking allows DNR to better distribute trout up and down the river system and prevents the concentration of fish in any particular area. Trout came from Walhalla State Fish Hatchery in Oconee County. The cold waters released from the bottom of Lake Murray provide suitable habitat for the trout in the Saluda River, creating a unique and very popular fishery in the midlands of South Carolina.

The DNR stocks thousands of trout each year in the Saluda from December through February in what it calls a “put, grow and take” fishery that relies on stocking to maintain populations and the cooperation of anglers for success. Young trout grow rapidly after stocking. If given time to grow, they can exceed 20 inches, considered trophy size for this type of fishery.

Anglers can assist the trout in reaching this size by practicing catch-andrelease fishing, especially during the winter and early spring. DNR conser-

vation officers will also be patrolling the river heavily to hold down overthe-limit catches.

South Carolina’s trout fishery generates about $9 million annually for the state’s economy in direct retail sales, with a total estimated economic output of more than $14 million, according to the “National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife Associated Recreation” published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The effects of trout fishing can be felt in many segments of Upstate and Midlands communities, from motels and restaurants to gas stations and sporting goods stores. Approximately 400,000 trout are stocked into public waters in the state’s upcountry each year by DNR. The trout are stocked in more than 50 cold-water rivers and streams in Greenville, Pickens and Oconee counties, in Lake Jocassee, and in the cool tail-waters below the Lake Hartwell and Lake Murray dams.

FISHING REPORTS Santee Cooper System Largemouth Bass: Slow to fair. Guide Linwood Thornhill reports that a pretty good bass bite survived the first flood, but the second round of flooding seems to have really slowed the action down.

It also doesn’t help the fishing that the weather can’t make up its mind whether it wants to be summer or winter.

Linwood does not remember another time when it has been this warm on the Santee Cooper lakes this late in the year.

Some fish are still being caught around isolated trees in 3-8 feet of water, and a few have also been caught around grass in the same depths. Zoom Trick Worms and Zoom Dead Ringers in green pumpkin have been working as well as anything, and Rattle Traps and crankbaits should also catch fish.

Lake Wateree Crappie: Good. Crappie fishing continues to improve. Fish have moved up the lake and they can be found from the State Park up to the foot of the upper dam along the ledges of the river channel. Look just off the bottom in 18-22 feet of water; fish will generally be within 6-12 inches of the bottom. The crappie are following shad schools, which have moved up the lake because of slightly warmer water coming in. The best pattern is tight-lining with Fish Stalker jigs with minnows on them, and plain minnows will also work. This is not a time of year when anglers are advised to fish plain jigs - you need to “hang some meat on them.” Fish are active but lethargic and so it is important to be slow and very patient with them.

Lake Greenwood White bass and perch: Very good. It appears that the white bass population is making a strong come-back on Lake Greenwood with some very successful spawns over the last three years. Jigging a half-ounce spoon for perch, some days

anglers will catch just as many white bass as perch. The best pattern for targeting white bass is to locate schools of bait, either using electronics or by following the birds. Birds could be diving on baitfish that loons are running up and not striper or white bass near the surface, but birds do indicate the presence of baitfish. Jigging a spoon off the bottom around baitfish schools will catch a wide variety of predatory fish including white bass, perch, striper and others - making it a really fun way to fish. For now the best depth for jigging is 30-36 feet. As always, be sure to have a topwater lure tied on in case fish are busting on the surface.

Lake Monticello Catfish: Fair to Good. The fishing for big fish has been really consistent the last few weeks, and this year there have also been good numbers of teenage-sized fish that help pass the time between bites from the big ones. Most baitfish are holding in the 40-60 foot range, and in that range and a little deeper the majority of the big fish have been found.

It’s not always necessary to fish around large schools of baitfish, but often it is an indicator that feeding cats are also present. Both anchoring on and drifting across ledges are working equally well.

Lake Murray Catfish: Good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that the bite is pretty good right now and fishing has been relatively consistent. The most reliable way to locate aggressive fish has been drifting with cut herring and shad and the most productive depth range has been 25-55 feet of water. Creek and river channel ledges are holding fish but do not overlook flats that have roaming catfish scattered across them. Anglers need to be prepared to adjust to different depth ranges almost daily as the baitfish and catfish are constantly changing areas and depths. Chris’s boat has been

catching decent numbers of big channel catfish as well as a bonus big blue or three on most days. Striped bass: Fair to good. Lake World reports that striper are scattered all over the lake, but the best action has come from the mid-lake up.

That is not to say that fish cannot be caught as far down the lake as Jake’s and the dam, but the best numbers of fish are further up. As always in the cooler months look for birds to help locate fish, and particularly seagulls. The presence of loons is a less reliable indicator that striper may be feeding in the area, although loons are a good indicator that bait is present. On days when fish are schooling a variety of lures will catch them, but if schooling activity is not apparent then dragging free-lined live herring or dropping down-lined herring down to 20 or 30 feet can be effective.

Cut bait has also been very effective on the bottom in 4-20 feet of water, particularly up the rivers.

Lake Russell Perch: Very good. Perch fishing remains very strong, with white and yellow perch mixed in with other predatory species around the big schools of bait. Minnows fished just off the bottom are working best. Striped bass: Good. December is typically a peak month for striper fishing on Lake Russell, and this year appears to be no exception. The best fishing has been on the lower end of the lake where more birds have been found. Pull large live shiners and herring on free-lines and planer boards, aiming to keep the baits no more than 10-12 feet deep above the trees. The water could be 40 or 70 feet deep.

Lake Thurmond Crappie: Very good. Crappie fishing is very strong on Clarks Hill, with fish being caught all over the lake but particularly in the Georgia and South Carolina Little Rivers. The fish are holding in traditional wintertime brush in the backs of coves;

fish 15-20 feet down in approximately 30-35 feet of water. Anchoring and fishing minnows vertically has been the best bet. Also have been taking flukes and Spooks. When fish are not on the surface spinnerbaits have been the best bet.

Lake Wylie Catfish: Very good. Over the last couple of years the Lake Wylie blue catfish population has exploded, and instead of blue catfish being a primarily a winter bite out in the river channel blues can now be caught all over the lake, including way up the creeks. While Wylie used to be primarily a channel catfish lake the catch ratio is now tilted about 60/40 in favor of blues most of the year.

Blue catfish on Wylie move around a lot and so the best method to locate them is drift fishing with a number of rods. At this time of year the best bet is to drift very slowly (.4 miles per hour or less) around the mouths of major creeks using either wind or a trolling motor.

Concentrate on 35-55 feet of water, being sure to cover all parts of the channel as well as the flats nearby to isolate the structure and depth to which fish are relating. After catching fish you can refine your drift to focus on the key areas. Rodger notes that some fishermen are more likely to try to locate individual fish on their electronics before fishing, but he prefers to focus on the structure to pattern them. Fresh cut gizzard shad is a very good bait this time of year.

Lake Hartwell Catfish: Good. The catfish bite is pretty good on Lake Hartwell. Instead of channel catfish making up the bulk of the catch and blues hard to target out in the timber, this is the time of year when blue catfish are readily available. To target blue cats look in the creeks in 20-40 feet of water and use fresh cut bait, usually herring or gizzard shad. On

bright sunny days when the water warms fish will move up onto the flats, but a lot of days the best areas to target are drops and in the creek channels.

Channel catfish can still be caught on cut herring, nightcrawlers and even dip bait - although with cooler water dip bait is much less effective. Flatheads can still be caught on live bait, but when water temperatures are around 50 degrees they will basically shut down.

Striped and Hybrid Bass: Good. This is a unique period when striper can be caught with a variety of different methods since they are scattered all over the lake and water temperatures are still relatively mild. Although they can be found in the backs of creeks as well as out in the main lake around points, a common denominator is that a lot of fish are relatively shallow in 15-20 feet of water or less. Fish can be caught trolling umbrella rigs, free-lining live herring, or on cut bait. Birds are arriving on the lake and they provide useful clues to where the fish will be located.

Lake Keowee Largemouth and Spotted Bass: Good.

Bass fishing is strong on Lake Keowee with good numbers and sizes of fish being caught. Fish can be found in 30-60 feet of water around depth changes such as creek channels, deep points and ledges. These fish will be around bait schools, and for these deeper fish both drop shotting and fishing spoons has been working well. Shallower fish can still be found towards the backs of creeks where bait is found and where there is even some schooling activity.

Jerkbaits, Blade Runners, and scrounger heads will all catch fish.

Lake Jocassee Black Bass: Fair. The baitfish should continue to bunch up tighter and tighter and the bass action should continue to improve until temperatures get colder.
