A new law that took effect in North Carolina on July 1 bans electronics such as computers and televisions from landfills.

The Polk County Transfer Station has been collecting electronics separately for about a year for a recycling vendor to pick-up, but the Town of Tryon is now asking residents to call town hall for a special pick-up for such devices due to the new law.

The ban includes electronic devices such as televisions, computers, monitors, printers, scanners, keyboards and mice.

The N.C. General Assembly approved the ban to help divert usable materials to North Carolina’s growing electronic recycling industry.

Electronics banned range from VCRs and fax machines to computer items, cell phones and MP3 players, calculators and game systems.

• Rain barrels (continued from page 1)

“We really need Polk County to see the importance of conserving the resources we have here – both our rainwater and our youth,” said Garden Saviour founder Cindy Bosien. “That’s what this project is trying to do.”

The project brings youth looking for worthwhile job experience together with Bosien to run a business and help the community in the process.

This whole venture started out with a young man looking for work with Bosien’s landscaping business and a drought.

Three years ago a hard drought hit the area and the two were watching landscaping customers allow plants to die for fear of using too much water and worsening the growing water shortage.

Frustrated, Bosien and her new employee began looking for a solution.

Bosien said a friend’s son suggested she start a rain barrel business and helped with the design

of the first barrel. Before Bosien knew it, her employee began asking to bring high school friends to help build the barrels.

She explained she didn’t have much money to offer them but if they were willing to work hard they could come and learn valuable business experience.

In the three years since Garden Saviour Water Barrels began, 35 youth have worked with Bosien.

“I’m out to help them learn how to build a life,” Bosien said.

“I’m pretty proud of the kids and all the work they’ve done.”

The work involved an extensive amount of research into what makes a good rain barrel, ways to best serve their customers and marketing the items.

A single barrel can hold 55 gallons of rainwater. Bosien said the group can even customize multiple barrels to work together and capture more water for use in landscaping or even washing your car.

The barrels’ design is a closed system, which Bosien said pre(Continued on page 5)

vents the build up of bacteria or swarms of mosquitoes. The color of the barrel, a dark mossy green, also prevents the water collected from heating up.

Bosien said she and the youth made this design decisions because pouring warm or hot water on plants doesn’t do them much good.

She also said they wanted to create something that would be an attractive feature in landscaping. Bosien said she wants to show the kids too what it takes to be an entrepreneur and a responsible member of their community.

“Right now I think our young people are in just a terrible situation.

There are no jobs and so all they have left to do are drugs and get in trouble,” she said. “I’m working with young adults to just help them try and make it in this life.”

Molly Pace began working with Garden Saviour after Bosien and another youth worker stopped to help Pace change a flat tire. Pace said at the time she was an irresponsible teenager who was spending her time partying and living a life without focus.

“She really pointed me in the right direction and has helped me focus on what I really want in life,” Pace said.

Pace said understanding the concepts of money and time manage-

“We try to offer ourselves up just to help people.

That’s what this business is about, it’s not really about the money.”

-- Molly Pace

ment, business ethics and responsibility have all come into play while working to install rain barrels. She said they’ve completed these and other projects in the community for both people who can pay and people who cannot. .

The Garden Saviour Water Barrels are sold on a sliding fee scale.

While the true cost of the barrels is $250, they have been sold for as little as a fifth of that cost or even given away.

Pace said because of this mindset, she’s learned a lot about how to make helping others a true aspect of your life.

“We try to offer ourselves up just to help people,” Pace said. “That’s what this business is about, it’s not really about the money.”

At the launch of this venture, Bosien and the kids purchased 30 barrels. They now have just eight of those first barrels left to sell and Bosien said the group needs the community’s support to keep the project going.

To learn more about the barrels, call Cindy Bosien at 828-625-9694.

dden in the puzzle below.

A pepper is a type of pungent (strong tasting, often spicy) fruit that comes from a variety of different plants. Peppers are used mainly for cooking; they are sometimes dried and ground into spices, used fresh in recipes, jarred and pickled, or made into sauces. A few peppers are known for their medicinal purposes, but all peppers are high in vitamins and antioxidants, making them healthy. There are two main types of peppers--mild, sweet peppers and spicy, hot, chili peppers.

Peppers can range from mild to excruciatingly hot and vary in color from dark red, orange, or green, to light yellow. Most of the heat in peppers comes from a chemical found in them called capsaicin. The more capsaicin, the hotter the pepper is. The heat from peppers is rated by a measurement system known as the Scoville Heat Unit system, created by Wilbur Scoville in 1912. The sweet bell pepper measures zero on the scale, while the hottest known pepper, the Bhut Jolokia, tops out the scale at a record 1,001,304! This pepper cannot be consumed by most people and cultivators must wear protective gloves, eyewear, and facemasks when dealing with the seeds and plants of the Bhut Jolokia. Pure capsaicin is a massive 16 billion on the Scoville scale. Other types of hot peppers are the Red Savina (previous record holder for hottest pepper at 580,000 Scoville units), the Habernero chili (350,00 Scoville units), Thai pepper (100,000 Scoville units), Cayenne Pepper (50,000 Scoville units), and the Jalapeño pepper (8,000 Scoville units).

Midnight practice at the Little Big House kicks off season Jamboree Wednesday, Aug. 10

The aurora, visible from nearly anywhere in the area, is unmistakable, yet seemingly out of place on a hot summer evening in early August.

Surely it can’t be football season already, can it?

One thing is certain – if you want to get to the football stadium at Polk County High School, there is no need to ask for directions – just follow the glow of the stadium lights.

On Friday evening, Aug. 5, the Polk County Wolverines

football team took to the field just before the stroke of midnight for the third time in as many years.

In what has become an annual ritual, head coach Bruce Ollis’ squad marked the first day that North Carolina teams are allowed full contact practice with a series of hard hitting

drills, followed by a spirited 11-on-11 scrimmage in front of an enthusiastic crowd of friends and family. According to Ollis, the evening was everything he hoped to see and more.

“I was very pleased,” said Ollis of the action that stretched into the wee hours of Saturday

morning. “It was spirited, the kids were physical – after lifting weights and running all summer, it’s good to be able to get after each other a little bit.”

Though the Wolverines have been hard at work all summer, the evening brought the upcoming season into clear focus and marked the beginning of a whirlwind of activity.

The team resumes practice this week in preparation for tomorrow evening’s Wolverine Jamboree at Polk County High, which pits squads from East Rutherford, Broome and West Henderson against Polk County in a multi-team scrimmage for-

mat beginning at 6 p.m.

“It always raises the level of intensity when you get to go up against some opposite colored jerseys,” said Ollis. “It should

be a lot of fun.”

Then, on Saturday, Aug. 13, the team travels south to Gaffney High School for the 7 p.m. kickoff of the Border Showcase

Football Classic VII, where the Wolverines will face off against a powerhouse Spartanburg High School team for the team’s first contest of the season.

St. Luke’s Hospital recognizes Dr. Thomas Perraut The National Hospital Association has set aside August as National Cataract Awareness month. With that in mind, St. Luke’s Hospital would like to recognize Dr. Thomas Perraut, ophthalmologist, of Blue Ridge Laser Eye Associates. Dr. Perraut, who has served this community for more than 25 years, has been a tremendous supporter of St. Luke’s Hospital where he performs more than 300 cataract and laser surgeries each year.

Cataract surgery has been made easier by the creation of synthetic replacement lenses that can be folded.

These lenses, often made of acrylic or solid silicone, can be placed into the eye through a self-sealing

incision as small as an eighth of an inch. Because the incision is so tiny, sutures usually aren’t needed. This procedure is less invasive and makes recovery time much shorter.

Cataracts are the leading cause of blindness in the world. Cataracts are an unfortunate but common symptom of aging; by age 80, more than half of all Americans either have a cataract or have had cataract surgery, according to the National Eye Institute.

“A cataract is not a growth, but rather a yellowing of the natural lens in the eye,” explained Dr. Perraut.

“It is usually a gradual process in which the lens becomes less clear and harder to see through. The lens,

lens during surgery.”

Fidal Wilkins receives Golden LEAF Foundation Scholarship The North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority recently selected Fidal Wilkins as a recipient of a $12,000 Golden LEAF Foundation Scholarship.

Wilkins attended Polk County High School and plans to attend the University of North Carolina at Wilmington.

Wilkins is one of 215 students selected to receive a $3,000 scholarship each year for up to four years of study at a participating NC public university or private non-profit college or university.

Recipients are from rural, economically distressed North Carolina counties and are selected based on a number of criteria, including a review of school and community service activities, goals and expressed intent to contribute to rural communities.

The Golden LEAF Foundation created the Golden LEAF Scholarship program to broaden educational opportunities and provide support to students from rural counties, with the hope that after graduation, recipients will provide leadership in these communities.

“The Golden LEAF Board of Directors has been pleased to assist more than seven thousand

students from families in rural communities attend college since 2000,” said Dan Gerlach, Golden LEAF president. “The Golden LEAF Scholarship is one of the many tools we have to help fulfill our purpose of growing North Carolina’s rural economy. Our hope is that through this scholarship opportunity, scholars will be able to gain valuable knowledge and skills and come back to their hometowns or another rural area to help our communities prosper.”

The Golden LEAF Foundation works in partnership with governmental entities, educational institutions, economic development organizations and nonprofits to achieve its mission. The foundation has awarded 1,089 other grants totaling more than $502 million since its inception.

The North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority (NCSEAA) administers the program on behalf of the Golden LEAF Foundation.

For more information, please visit CFNC.org or call College Foundation of North Carolina, toll-free, at 866-866-CFNC (2362).

While most of the people of a third aide, Betty was carein rehab were between 65 and fully transferred onto the therapy 90 years old, and wanted to mat.

Ron Kauffman While I have This patient, no way of knowwhom I’ll call Betty, was wheelchair bound, ing for certain, I guessed that and had limited capability to Betty’s family and her doctor lift her own body weight and had decided what was best for transfer from the wheelchair to her, and possibly without her the platform mat for physical input.

Unfortunately for the therapy therapy.

This isn’t too unusual, as staff, they had no choice but to there are many clients who are follow doctor’s written orders. unable to transfer on their own, So as soon as the therapist began which is often part of the reason- to touch Betty’s body, starting with her feet and legs, Betty ing for their being in therapy.

Betty is a short woman, about began yelling, “No. I don’t want 5-feet tall and weighs about 170 it. Leave me alone.”

This didn’t deter the staff, pounds. But when the patient can’t assist with her movement, because a number of patients she becomes virtually dead protest the initial discomfort of some of the therapy. But Betty weight.

continued, saying, “No. I’m 92 years old. I’m old. I’m done.

Leave me alone. I don’t want it.

You can go to hell.”

She did this repeatedly, all to no avail as the therapy had to be done.

To their credit, the staff kept telling her, “Betty, we have to help you get better and stronger.” It was an interesting mix of psychology, tough love and caring being applied to a very difficult situation. This went on for almost 30 minutes until, at last, the session was concluded and Betty was placed back into her wheelchair.

I wondered as I had watched and listened to this scene unfold, whether Betty was benefitting from the discomfort she was asked to endure for her therapy?

Was her quality of life going to be improved, or were her days on Earth simply going to be extended with no improvement to her life in exchange for her pain and discomfort?

I will never know the answers to those questions, but with our country deeply in debt, our health care costs skyrocketing and Medicare facing tens of

trillions of dollars in unfunded liabilities and heading for bankruptcy, I thought that perhaps, just perhaps, Betty was trying to do what’s best for her and indirectly best for us.

Betty’s situation made me think about the lives of millions of aging boomers and seniors.

How many of us have not had that important end of life conversation with loved ones?

Too many boomers and seniors have yet to complete their living wills and other advance directives. As a result, how many of us may someday become the next Betty?

It’s something to think about and to act on now, before those decisions are taken out of our hands.
