Editor
“It hasn’t

getting
here, and
things
won’t
change
overnight,
but...”
A New Year, A New Sun City Carolina Lakes
We are off to a new start. This is issue 101, and you will notice some changes in this magazine
for starters. This is just the beginning of the improvements we intend to make. If you have
any thoughts about what you would like to see, or what other changes you would like us to
consider for this magazine, our email address is livingsccl@aol.com.
Also new will be our Board of Directors. Owner-member Pat Peters and two Pulte
representatives have been removed by Jon Cherry who replaced them on the Board
with Jim Mayer, Bob Kiener, and Joseph P. Ditchman, Jr. They now join the previously
appointed members Rick Kremer, Paul Purfield, Jim Odendahl, and Paul Kostelac. These
seven members met for the first time as an all-owner Board at the Workshop on Monday,
December 5, and for the formal monthly meeting of the Board of Directors on Monday,
December 19. They will direct our SCCL community forward into 2017, and we can look
forward to a productive year ahead.
A change at FirstService Residential (FSR) brings us a new Executive Director, Brian Matt,
who started work on December 20. He comes to us with an extensive background in various
management positions over a long and diverse career. We wish him well and expect that his
experience in varied locations and positions will serve us well in working on and improving
operations in the future.
FSR has had growing pains in the past, and Brian Matt will have a learning curve to absorb
before he can understand the history and culture of this active-adult community. Over
this ten year period we have had a number of Executive Directors. Each had his/her set of
growing pain concerns, and each moved us forward as the community was built out. We
believe that we are now finally on the right track, with the right personnel, and so we have a
positive outlook for the future.
The Home Owners Advisory Council (HOAC) is new for 2017, also. The leadership is
changing now that Bob Kiener, former Chair, has moved on to the Board of Directors of
the SCCLCA. Former Communications Director Larry Ayres moves into the Chairman
role and Peg Mertes moves into the Program Director role. They will be joined by Cindy
Thomas as Vice Chair and Diane Szulimowski as Communications Director. The Vision and
the Mission Statement of the Council is also dramatically different than it was in the past,
because the past is now behind us. All of this bodes well for the future of the Council, and for
the future of the community.
None of these changes will be easy. It will not be until the Initial Meeting of the SCCLCA
that those we have elected can be formally seated and can actually be considered independent.
At that time we will be free to change some of the rules and regulations that Pulte put into
place over the past ten years, and start working on making governance more in line with the
needs of Sun City Carolina Lakes.
It hasn’t been smooth getting here, and things won’t change overnight, but we know that the
New Year will see changes in Living magazine, the Board of Directors, the HOAC, and our
management company, FSR…changes that will ultimately improve things in our community
and turn Sun City Carolina Lakes from Good to Great.

Walk On Sun City Carolina Lakes, Strong
The first ever “Sun City Strong” walk to end
Alzheimer’s” held on the first Sunday in November
was a smashing success. Over two hundred walkers
turned out on a sunny Carolina blue afternoon to enjoy
the camaraderie and show their commitment to end a
terminal disease that afflicts millions -- it is the sixth
leading cause of death in the US.
the South Carolina Alzheimer’s Association staff from
Spartanburg. At the Grandparents Park a “sag wagon”
awaited anyone too tired to make the round trip, and
additional water and refreshments were available.
“This is a much bigger turnout than we expected,” said
Dori Burgess, Program Director of the South Carolina
Alzheimer’s Association. “It’s amazing, especially for a
first-time event.”
“It should be an annual event, for sure,” said Nikki Lord,
SCCL resident.
The stream of walkers heads down Del
Webb Boulevard.
After registering, each walker received a purple “bib”
with their number and a raffle ticket to enter the
drawing for door prizes. Refreshments were available on
a nearby table to enjoy before, during, or after the event.
The SCCL Motorcycle Club and other volunteers helped
direct traffic and guide walkers on their route.
In The Lodge parking lot, DJ Dixie played energizing
music, purple balloons sparkled in the sunshine, face
painting added whimsy, and event sponsors provided
information and handouts to the good-natured crowd.
One of the sponsors demonstrated warm-up exercises
to prepare for the walk. Many walkers signed posters
dedicating their effort to the memory of a loved one or
to honor a person challenged with Alzheimer’s disease.
Several area businesses contributed attractive door prizes
to express their support for the cause. The drawing
for these prizes took place just before the crowd was
organized into a line to begin the hike down to the
Grandparents Park and back at exactly two o’clock.
Along the route, a series of purple and white signs were
posted featuring information about Alzheimer’s disease.
The signs were brought in and installed by members of
Joy Nelson expresses joy at the
Alzheimer’s Walk.
By three o’clock, the clean-up crew was finishing up,
and the person who had conceived the project breathed
a sigh of relief. “It was beyond my wildest dreams,” said
Janis Yarde, who had organized a small committee to put
on the first Sun City Strong walk. “I thought we’d be
lucky to get fifty people out!”
A preliminary tally of the funds collected from sponsors,
local businesses, walkers, and online revealed that more
than $8000 was raised for the Alzheimer’s Association,
an organization that funds research and provides
support for families facing the many challenges of this
dreadful disease. The successful project was organized
by the Nurses Interest Group in SCCL, the Alzheimer’s
caregiver support group, and Senior Helpers.

More Improvements Coming To The Softball Facility
SCCL Softball-Water’s Edge Park Tribute Walk
SCCLCA’s Board of Directors approved the Softball
Club’s request to offer personalized, laser-engraved
paver bricks as a fundraiser for the club.
An area at Water’s Edge Park around the maintenance
shed and washrooms, receives a great deal of foot
traffic. This area is currently very unsafe, unattractive,
and presents an ongoing maintenance issue for the
community.
The project is a plan to lay a combination of engraved
and blank paver stones in that area, creating an attractive
patio/tribute walk area to address the safety concerns,
improve ease of access to the grandstands, and to further
beautify the ball park.
The Softball Club will be offering the opportunity to
honor or pay tribute to grandchildren, family members,
or friends on 4 x 8 inch and 8 x 8 inch high quality
pavers that include a lifetime warranty. Residents will be
able to specify the text, or text and selected clip art. The
inscriptions are limited only by your own imagination
and good taste.
The Softball Club’s goal is to solve a current issue at the
ball park at no
cost to the HOA
and in so doing,
further enhance
the beauty and
attractiveness of
our community.
If you have
someone on your Holiday Shopping List particularly
difficult to buy for, why not consider a paver stone. Your
support might kill more birds with one stone.
For additional information about obtaining your
personalized pavers, pricing, or to order your pavers,
please contact Softball Club Board Members: Mark
Mandle (mandlemarka@gmail.com) or Larry Anglin
(holeone@aol.com).
Thank you for your support of SCCL Softball.

Oklahoma! A hit!
h what a beautiful mornin”… or afternoon… or
“O evening… at The Lodge in Sun City Carolina
Lakes. Those lyrics were first heard seventy-three years
ago on Broadway in New York City. Two thousand two
hundred and twelve performances over a five-year period
made Oklahoma! a certifiable hit.
Integrating music and dance in storytelling was the
secret of Richard Rodgers’ and Oscar Hammerstein’s
success. They were the geniuses who created the
memorable words and music of this lavish super musical.
Oklahoma! looks as fresh today as it did when the curtain
went up for the first time in1943.
At first, critics considered it a flop, but a final name
change from, And Away we Go, to Oklahoma!, was
all that was needed to finalize Oklahoma!’s success.
(Jackie Gleason, the comedian, adopted the phrase
“And away we go,” when he became a television superstar.)
Deafening applause on opening night proved the
critics had been wrong. Eleven years after the original
The stunning backdrops were designed by Sharon
Webb and set pieces by Debbie Routman.
stage production finally closed, this lavish musical was
brought to the silver screen, starring Gordon MacRae
and Shirley Jones, and grossed over seven million dollars.
Under the direction of our own Ken Weiss, many
residents attended the two plus hours of this stirring
musical comedy. Seven sold-out performances over a
two-week period were a testament to the well-received
songfest.
10 LIVING @ SCCL, January 2017

The show was a success; “Little Wonder.”
Seven performances for over 1,600 happy
audience members.
Months and months of rehearsals made this musical
comedy production an outstanding triumph at SCCL.
Many residents are eager for another stage performance
similar to Oklahoma! in the near future. We agree.
“We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand
And when we say
Yeow! Aye-Yip-Aye-Yo-Ee-Ay
Were only sayin’
“you’re doing fine Oklahoma,
Oklahoma”
O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A
Oklahoma!,
Yeow!”

Genetics and Health
Your nutrition needs are as unique as you are, so let’s talk
nutrition -- real nutrition. Why is it that individuals,
eating similar diets and living comparable lifestyles, may
have vastly different health outcomes?
Our guest lecturer, Steven Zeisel, MD, PhD, worldrenowned
nutrition expert and research scientist, is
leading the Nutrition Research Institute (NRI) on the
North Carolina Research Campus located in Kannapolis,
NC. His institute at UNC tries to unlock the promise of
personalized nutrition for proactive health management.
Our healthcare professionals will be able to better guide
each of us to reach and maintain our optimal health and
to more effectively treat diseases like obesity, cancer, and
diabetes. The NRI is exploring this frontier in human
health. Currently, Dr. Zeisel’s laboratory teams are
investigating how abnormalities in certain genes alter
dietary requirements, and how diet can turn on or off
the effects of these genes. Dr. Zeisel’s work has brought
to light the important role of the body nutrient Choline
in human health, and he will discuss his findings.

The “Nones”
For many years, affiliation with organized religion has
been declining. This phenomenon has reached a point
where an entirely new “religion of no religion” has
evolved. Now referred to as the “Nones,” this group
has reached a point at which it is having an impact on
almost all areas of our society and has raised questions
regarding exactly what will happen to the organized
religions of the world over time.
In this presentation, we will review formal data and
research from respected sources to help us better
understand why this decline in affiliation is taking place.
What is a “None?” Who are the “Nones?” What do the
“Nones” believe? Why have these people abandoned
organized religion? How is the religious decline already
affecting our society? And finally, what might this all
mean for the long-term?
Originally from Baltimore, Maryland, Arnie Stone
earned a bachelor’s degree in English from the University
of Maryland and his master’s degree in Literature from
the American University. He started his professional
career in sales, and later transitioned to marketing.
Arnie, as a Director and Vice President, led sales and
marketing teams in divisions of several Fortune 500
companies where he also served on several divisional
Boards of Directors. Upon retirement, Arnie was
determined to revisit writing a novel that he had actually
attempted to start over forty years ago in college.
Discarding what he viewed as outdated writing, but
maintaining the original religious and philosophical
ideas that he had started out with, he began doing indepth
research. Out of this was born his first novel, The
Revelation of the Nones, a speculative fiction based on
true data and facts. That information is the basis for this
LLL presentation. Arnie is now retired and has lived in
SCCL for the past 10 years with his wife, Helaine.

The 2016 Presidential Election
Dr. Scott Huffmon, Professor of Political Science at
Winthrop University and Director of Winthrop’s Social
and Behavioral Research Lab, will explain and comment
on the national and South Carolina elections last
November. He was originally scheduled to speak to us in
October, but had to postpone due to illness.
Prof. Huffmon’s commentary on poll results, South
Carolina politics, and southern and national politics in
general have been featured in national and international
news outlets, including CNN, NBC Nightly News, ABC
News, MSNBC, the New York Times, Washington Post,
the LA Times, the Miami Herald, Politico.com, PBS,
NPR, Time, Newsweek, BBC, AFP (Agence France-
Presse), Tokyo Broadcasting System, and many more.
Professor Huffmon was awarded the 2016 Distinguished
Professor of the Year. This designation is the highest
honor the Winthrop community can bestow upon
a faculty member. This will be Dr. Huffmon’s third
appearance at LLL. Just three days after the inauguration
of the new US president, he will add his perspective to
the new balance of power in Washington.
Jan. 30 Explorations During the Age of
Discovery
Does the term Renaissance apply when nothing has
died? Popular history says that the Italian Renaissance
grew from the ashes of the Middle Ages. Humanism,
Science, Literature, Art, Theater, Politics, and the drive to
explore past the boundaries of Medieval Europe exploded
in the fourteenth to sixteenth centuries. What was the
impetus? Mercantilism and the printing press opened a
gateway to awareness of diversity. Religious encapsulation
became invaded with freedom of thought and expression.
Inventions replaced cainophobia (the fear of change).
Conflicts expanded beyond family and village to the
concept of nationalism. Exploration, both internal and
external, became a more acceptable norm.
The seeds of enlightenment were sown not only in Italy,
but throughout Europe and the Middle East. This lecture
will look at the Age of Discovery, trace its roots, and
expose the manifold achievements. It will also provide
an overview of art, science, literature, and the incredible
creativity that manifested itself during this period.
Who in Sun City Carolina Lakes would be better
qualified to talk about the Renaissance than Bob Engel? L

Meet Your Neighbor By Marlene Markowitz

Roz and Marty Husney
For many years when interested buyers entered the
Sales Office of Sun City Carolina Lakes, they were
first met and greeted by Roz Husney.
Roslyn Monblatt Husney was born in Manhattan and
was raised in Yonkers, New York, along with younger
brother Barry. She attended Yonkers High School where
she was a member of the National Honor Society.
Loving bike riding, she often rode for miles. Attending
Hunter College in Manhattan, she majored in Political
Science and minored in Education. At the end of her
freshman year, the family vacationed at Rockaway Beach
where Roz was introduced to a handsome guy named
Marty. She was swept off her feet, and they were married
five months later.
Marty is the fourth son of refugees from Aleppo, Syria.
His father arrived in the United States from Aleppo in
the early 1900s. Seeing a picture of a beautiful young
girl who was still living in Aleppo at that time, he sent
for her and married her in New York. They raised seven
children in Brooklyn.
Marty was the youngest son, and the favorite, as
he always did what he was told to do. He attended
Lafayette High School. The Syrian people were known
to be good business people, dealing with wholesale and
retail operations. Marty entered first as a salesman, and
then owner. Introduced to a pretty blonde eighteen year
old, Marty fell in love immediately. Their wedding was
spectacular with traditional and middle-eastern music
and food delicacies.
The Husneys set up their home in Scarsdale, New York,
raising three children. Roz decided to take courses in the
travel field. She worked fifteen years as a corporate and
personal travel consultant. She also was a volunteer for
United Way and the United Jewish Appeal. She tutored
math in the schools while Marty continued working.
Following daughter Robin, her husband, Craig Rubin,
and grandchildren Matthew, Jonathan and Dana, to
Charlotte, North Carolina, the Husneys retired in the
South. They made a beautiful life, joining Temple Israel
and the Jewish Community Center. Learning to play
pickleball at the JCC, Marty didn’t realize at the time
how important that would later become.
Marty was one of the
founders of the Pickleball
Club. The members played
in the parking lot of the
future Lake House. He was
the first treasurer of the
club, and also sold paddles
and balls.
Roz was hired by Pulte as
a front desk receptionist
Marty and Roz
at the Sales Center. She was
a “Meeter and Greeter.” She
was very active with the USTA Tennis Team in SCCL.
The Husneys belong to the Shalom Club, where Roz
was the first Treasurer. They play Duplicate Bridge on a
weekly basis together, while Roz also plays Mah Jongg
and Canasta.
Roz’s bucket list includes the idea of her becoming a
comedic actress in Performing Arts Club productions.
She fulfilled this thus far by appearing in three major
productions, Susan’s Secret, Anna’s Brooklyn Promise and
You’re the Jury, as well as several Performance Cafes.
She also appeared in Fiddler on the Roof and hopes to
continue auditioning, getting more juicy roles.
Roz and Marty are extremely proud of the
accomplishments of their children. Robin went on to
obtain a Master’s Degree from Bernard Baruch at the
top of her class. Adam went on to The University of
Pennsylvania Medical School and lives in Boise, Idaho,
with wife Kristin and children Sarah and Seth. Jamie
is married to Julie, living in White Plains, New York,
and is a Vice President with Alliance Bernstein Wealth
Management.
The Husneys will be celebrating 58 years of marriage in
January 2017. They have traveled to various Club Meds,
England, Israel and Panama. While in Panama, they
acquired a taste for a Pacific fish called Corvina. They
discovered that they can finally buy it nearby, at Costco.
Roz often says, “If you are age qualified, and can afford
to live here in Sun City Carolina Lakes, it is the only
place to live. You never have to be alone unless you
choose to be.” L

Amelia Earhart
First Female in Flight
By Nick Suhr
Earhart on the landing strut of a Lockheed Vega, an American six-passenger high-wing monoplane
airliner built by the Lockheed Corporation. Amelia Earhart became the first woman to fly the Atlantic
solo in this plane.
I volunteered to write this article because I grew up
knowing my mother’s cousin, Katrina Pusey, who got
her pilot’s license in Delaware in the 1920s and heard
about Amelia Earhart from early childhood.
Amelia, named after her mother and her maternal
grandmother, Amelia Otis (of the elevator Otises),
was born in Atchison, Kansas, in 1897. She and her
sister Grace were homeschooled by their mother and a
governess until Amelia was twelve. From the beginning,
both girls were instilled with a spirit of adventure and it
stuck.
The Family Story
Amelia’s family life growing up
with her sister was great. Life
with her parents was not always
so great. Moving from town to
town, state to state, and teacher
to teacher, led to a disrupted
childhood. The girls often spent
extended time with their maternal grandparents. When
her grandmother died in 1907, Amelia was distraught.
The family homestead she knew growing up was sold
and the door to her childhood refuge slammed shut. She
was ten years old.
When her father got a job with Great Northern Railway
in St. Paul, Minnesota, she started high school in 1915.
When his chance for a transfer to Springfield, Missouri,
fell through, her mother took the girls to Chicago to live
with friends, supported by a trust under her mother’s
will. There, Amelia attended Hyde Park High School,
where she graduated in 1916. World War I was raging
when she visited her sister in Toronto in 1917. Amelia
trained to be a nurse and to care for badly wounded
soldiers at a military hospital. In 1918, a Spanish flu
pandemic struck Toronto and Amelia was not spared.
Her bout with the flu led to pneumonia and sinusitis,
and the latter condition lingered to affect her in later life.
She returned to the US, planning to attend college.

None of this worked out, so in 1920 she went to
California where her parents had reunited, and there she
took her first ride in an airplane.
Learning to Fly
On January 3, 1921, Amelia walked four miles to meet
the woman who would teach her to fly. This was Anita
“Neta” Snook, a pioneer female aviator who trained pilots
in a surplus Curtiss JN-4 “Canuck.” Amelia had one
request: “I want to fly. Will you teach me?” She would,
and during the next seven years Amelia bought and
sold several airplanes, saw her parents get divorced, kept
collecting newspaper clippings and articles about women
seeking positions in businesses, and participating in sports
that were traditionally “men only,” and kept on flying.
We all know
that her plane
disappeared in the
Pacific on July 2,
1937, during her
second attempt
to become the
first woman to
circumnavigate
the earth by
air. This event
led to countless
efforts to discover
what happened,
L–R: Neta Snook and Amelia
Earhart in front of Earhart’s
Kinner Airster, c. 1921
spawned dozens of myths, lots of speculation and, so
far, no results. This rest of this article is about the things
Amelia accomplished in her forty years.
Important Milestones
1922 Set the women’s world altitude record by flying to
14,000 feet.
1923 Became the sixteenth woman to receive a pilot’s
license from the French Aeronautics Federation.
1927 Had accumulated nearly 500 solo hours of flying
and began efforts to form an all-female pilots’ association.
1928 In June, became the first woman to cross the
Atlantic as a passenger, keeping the flight log for the pilot,
Wilmer Stultz. In August, she made a round-trip solo
flight across America, showcasing her skill.
1930 In July, set the women’s world speed record at
181.18 mph, racing in a sport that captivated America in
the Roaring Twenties.
1931 Became a founding member and president of
the “Ninety-Nines,” an association of female pilots, and
married publisher and promoter, George Putnam, who
became her manager.

1932 On May 21, became the first woman to fly
solo across the Atlantic and in August, became the first
woman to fly solo across America non-stop from Los
Angeles to Newark. For these achievements, she was
awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Gold Medal
of the National Geographic Society, and the Harmon
Trophy (America’s Outstanding Airwoman). Published
her memoir of her flying career, For the Fun of It.
1933 Set a new women’s North American
transcontinental speed record of seventeen hours, seven
minutes and thirty seconds, breaking her own record.
1935 On January 12, became the first woman to
fly solo across the Pacific, and was named America’s
Outstanding Airwoman by the Harmon Trophy
Committee. She became a visiting advisor on
aeronautical engineering at Purdue University and did
career counseling for women students.
Postscript
The mysterious disappearance of Amelia’s Lockheed
Electra still attracts attention after eighty years. On
September 9, 2016, an article in the New York Post
covered a study by The International Group for Historic
Aircraft Recovery, suggesting Amelia may have survived
as a castaway on a remote, deserted island. This group
discovered measurements of some long-lost bones found
on the island of Nikumauroro which, based on photos of
Amelia, they concluded were “consistent with a female of
Earhart’s height and ethnic origin.” The mystery seems
still far from solved. L

Staying Healthy When
Traveling Abroad
By Jane Gregor, RN
One in a series by the
Nurses Group
We live in Sun City Carolina Lakes, an active adult
community. We have the ability to preserve our health and
safety by being vigilant and responsible for our own health.
For more information: www.SCCLHS.com
Many of us who are lucky enough to live in Sun
City Carolina Lakes have opportunities to travel
in retirement. But I have heard scary stories that perhaps
could have been avoided. It is important to remember
that you are responsible for your own health and wellbeing
when you are traveling. Be prepared. It’s a great
way to make sure you have a good time.
Before you leave
• Make sure are that you are current on all your
required vaccinations, as well as medications for
mosquito borne viruses.
• Find out the contact information for the nearest
U.S. embassies or consulates in the countries you are
to traveling to.
• Apply for a passport at least three months before
you travel. If you already have one, be sure to check
the passport’s expiration date as well as any entry
requirements for the countries you will be visiting.
• Understand the financial system and know the
currency rates at your travel destinations.
• Tell your bank and/or credit card company of your
travel plans so that their security measures do not
freeze your account.
What to bring
• Plan to bring the smallest roll-aboard suitcase you
can manage. A second bag should stack neatly on
top of your wheeled bag. Packing light is important
for seniors.
• Bring along a magnifying glass to help you read
detailed maps and small-print schedules, perhaps a
pocket flashlight, and a small notebook to jot down
facts and reminders.
• Bring a copy of your Living Will with you.
• Bring an updated copy of all of your current
medications (both prescription and over-thecounter).
• Bring emergency contact information about your
family in the United States with you when you
travel. Also, be sure to pencil this information into
the emergency contact information section of your
passport.
• Bring travelers checks and one or two major credit
cards. Many credit cards and travel and tourism
companies offer cancellation protection for an
additional fee.
• Purchase travelers checks from a bank and bring
local currency with you for taxi fares, tips, and minor
expenditures in the foreign country.
What to leave
• Leave your itinerary, your emergency contact
information, and a copy of your passport’s
biographic data page with family and/or trusted
friends.
Insurance
• Make sure you get travel insurance and read the
fine print. Don’t leave home without it. It is best if
you speak with a travel agent or a general insurance
agent, and go through “worst case scenarios” of
needing major medical care in a foreign country
and/or transportation all the way home, and not just
to the nearest stateside hospital.
• Always purchase trip cancellation, travel health, and
medical evacuation insurance. Consider purchasing
luggage insurance.
Medications
• Bring an updated copy of your current medications
(both prescription and over-the-counter), and
enough for the whole trip plus a few extra days. Keep
your medications with you, not in your checked
luggage.
• Before every meal of foreign foods, it is helpful to

• It is best to bring your own supply of antidiarrhea
medication (e.g., Lomotil or Imodium).
• You should have a Z Pak for infections, if you can
get a prescription from your physician.
• Consider carrying a small typed card in your
wallet that has your blood type, allergies to foods
or medications, and list of all medications you
take, including over-the-counter meds.
Food and Drink
• Remember to wash your hands with soap and
warm water before eating.
• Consume only bottled water, even for brushing
your teeth, and keep your mouth closed in the
shower.
• There is no guarantee against food-borne illness,
but be vigilant and never eat undercooked meat,
poultry, fish, or eggs.
While traveling
• Move. Blood clots are possible on long trips, so
get up and move every hour or so when flying.
Check with your doctor to see if support hose are
warranted during a long flight.
We can all prepare beforehand to travel safely and
enjoy each and every day of our trip.L

John P. Countryman
by Louise Pettus
Warrant for a Felony
On July 3, 1825, a laborer, John P. Countryman,
“entered the dwelling house of Robert Love” and
stole “one Spanish milled dollar of the value of one
dollar, one quarter valued at twenty-five cents, one seven
pence in silver of the value of twelve and a half cents
and one three pence half penny in
silver at the value of six and one
quarter cents.”
The same day or soon thereafter,
Countryman stole from James
Love some paper bank bills—a
$10 note issued by the Bank of
the State of South Carolina, along
with a $10 note on the Bank of
North Carolina, several small
notes, and a few silver coins. The
total amounted to around $30.
Countryman’s apparent motive
was to get enough money to allow
him to move to the west. To South
Carolinians in 1825, the west was
Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee,
or Kentucky.
Countryman only got as far as
Chester District where, on September 10, 1825, he was
apprehended by Abraham Petty and Rutherford Hayden.
The two took Countryman to Clement Wood, a justice
of the peace. Wood charged Countryman with theft,
placed him in the Chester Gaol (jail), and informed York
District Sheriff John M. Harris of the money found on
Countryman.
The records are not clear on what Sheriff Harris did
next, but they do show that before the quarterly court
session assembled, he had secured three material
witnesses against Countryman and had required the
three, William Currier, John Turner, and Elijah Carroll,
to post bond of $200 each to guarantee their appearance
in court.
“...one Spanish milled dollar of the
value of one dollar...” The scroll and
pillars on reverse of the coin are
said to be the origin of the dollar
sign.
One in a series on the
History of Our Area
A warrant for felony was issued for Countryman. The
case was officially recorded as The State vs. Countryman,
and the twenty-one assembled jurymen were summoned
by a state court called the Court of Oyer and Terminer.
The court had the power to try treason and felony and
the power of general gaol delivery.
In the October 1825 court
session, the story unfolded in the
testimony of the three subpoenaed
men.
William Currier testified that on
August 5, he received the 1822
Spanish milled dollar, which was
marked, apparently with a knife,
“on the edge opposite the foot of
the left-hand pillar,” from John
Turner.
John Turner then took the stand
to testify that earlier on August 5
he had received the same dollar
from John P. Countryman.
Elijah Carroll then took the stand
and swore that he received the
marked dollar from Currier on the same day.
John Countryman was found guilty by the jury. If
he ever testified in his own defense, the record does
not show it. The judge’s verdict did not appear on the
records filed in York. Since the judge was a circuit judge
trying a state case, it is probable that the records showing
the judge’s decision are in the State Archives.
Actually, John Countryman’s guilt or innocence is
irrelevant. What is instructive in the case of Countryman
is that as late as 1825 in York District, foreign coinage
was still in general circulation as demonstrated by the
exchanges on August 5.
26 LIVING @ SCCL, January 2017

The people undoubtedly would have preferred all United
States currency rather than dealing with a variety of
foreign coins. It was certainly easier to calculate the
relative value of domestic currency by using the decimal
system devised by Thomas Jefferson some 35 years earlier
than it was to translate Spanish, English, and Dutch
coins into American money.
This area was in a state of economic depression in 1825,
a depression that became particularly severe by 1827.
Cotton had created great prosperity in the uplands of
South Carolina following the invention of the cotton
gin in 1794. By the mid-1820s new cotton lands in the
west were out-producing the older cotton lands of the
Carolinas.
A significant number of York, Chester, and Lancaster
District farmers sold their land for what they could get
and formed wagon caravans with their slaves and many
of their relatives and neighbors and headed west to grow
in far richer soil. For the most part, they prospered in
the west and soon persuaded more folk to join them in
a western migration that lasted until the outbreak of the
Civil War.
We do not know whether
John Countryman ever joined
the westward migration. L

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
More Than a Dreamer
By Anne Lauher Artwork by Lonnie Knabel
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is
remembered for having been
the leader of the Civil Rights
Movement in the United
States from the mid-1950s
until his assassination in 1968.
But he may be most notably
remembered for his “I Have
a Dream” speech delivered on
August 28, 1963, in the shadow
of the Lincoln Memorial during
the March on Washington.
As we prepare to celebrate what
would have been his eightyeighth
birthday on January 15,
let us take a more in-depth look
at the man, his life, and his
legacy, for he was more than a
dreamer.
Before he became involved in
civil rights and social activism,
Dr. King was a Baptist preacher/pastor, but this role is
often overlooked. It was an important aspect of who
he was, for he viewed Christianity as a force to be used
for social change. His faith was his inspiration to lead
the non-violent movement for equality for African-
Americans. It was in the pulpit where his great oratorical
skills SP Ad were 7.5x2.43_Layout developed 1 19/12/2013 and perfected. 16:49 Page 1
In 1955, he was called to serve
as pastor at the Dexter Avenue
Baptist Church in Montgomery,
Alabama, and it is here where
his first major campaign against
civil injustice, the Montgomery
Bus Boycott, would take place.
He resigned from Dexter Avenue
in 1960, to devote more time to
the civil rights cause. However,
he wanted to keep connected to
his pastoral calling, so he became
an associate pastor at Ebenezer
Baptist Church in Atlanta,
Georgia, where his father was
pastor.
Rev. Michael Thurman, former
pastor of the Dexter Avenue
Baptist Church, states that, “It
was the African-American church
that nurtured him and gave him
the sense that God was a god of justice, God was a god
of mercy, God was a god of reckoning.”
There were many significant events that Dr. King led
that made him the dominant force and most important
leader of the civil rights movement. The first such
campaign, in December 1955, was the Montgomery Bus

Boycott, to force integration
of the city’s bus line after
Rosa Parks was arrested for
refusing to give up her seat to
a white passenger. This was
the earliest large-scale protest
on behalf of civil rights in
America, and it confirmed his
commitment to nonviolent
resistance.
In 1957, he was elected
president of the Southern Christian Leadership
Conference (SCLC), the national organization formed to
help end segregation in the South. One of its first actions
was to conduct non-violent protests in key southern
cities where they went to register black voters.
Between 1957 and 1963, Dr. King organized and led
marches in Albany, Georgia; in Seattle, Washington;
in Greensboro, NC; as well as in many other cities
throughout the South.
In 1963, two events would have profound impact on
the Civil Rights Movement. He led a number of support
groups in a peaceful demonstration against economic
injustice in Birmingham, Alabama, in early April. The
protestors were met with violent confrontation by city
police and were jailed. It is here that he composed the
famous “Letter from the Birmingham Jail” in which
he both responded to those who said the civil rights
campaign was moving too fast, and defended the need
for civil disobedience as a response to racism. Then on
August 28, he delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech
before more than 250,000 gathered in support for
pending civil rights legislation. Less than a year later, on
July 2, President Lyndon
Johnson signed the Civil
Rights Act of 1964.

On October 14, 1964, Dr.
King received the Nobel
Peace Prize for his efforts to
end racism and economic
injustices.

result of this campaign was the passing of the Voter
Rights Act, which eliminated barriers to voting for
African-Americans.
During the years between 1965 and 1968, Dr. King
shifted his focus from civil rights to economic injustice
and international peace. He spoke out against the
Vietnam War and felt the war contributed to poverty
experienced by many Americans.
It was this new focus that was to be highlighted in the
“Poor Peoples’ Campaign,” planned for spring 1968 in
Washington, DC. But Dr. King interrupted his planning
to go to Memphis,
Tennessee, to support
the sanitation workers’
strike. He never

Undoubtedly one of the greatest
international statesmen of the
twentieth century, Winston Churchill
was born in Blenheim Palace to the
third son of a British Duke and an
American socialite. The year was
1874. After finishing college, he was
accepted at Sandhurst, the prestigious
British Royal Military Academy equivalent to
America’s West Point. After three attempts at
final exams, he became a British officer. Oddly,
he resigned his military commission in 1899, to
pursue a career as a war correspondent.
Churchill calls on
President Hoover, 1929
Sir Winston Churchill
A Seasoned Man for all Seasons!
Churchill left for
Africa to report on
the Boer War. While
accompanying South
African troops on a
routine scouting mission,
he was captured, but
he managed to escape
shortly thereafter. Had
he retained his officer
status, he would have
been awarded the
Victoria Cross for valor.
As a civilian, he was not
eligible. After remaining
in South Africa for some
time, he joined the South
African Light Horse regiment. At the same time,
he continued as a correspondent.
Churchill returned to England in 1900, stood for
parliament, and won his seat on the conservative
side of the aisle. He then officially became an MP,
a member of parliament. By 1904, he’d made
a dramatic switch to the Liberal Party and was
tagged a traitor.
Over the next few years, Churchill rose dramatically
in the political arena, and in 1911 was made first
lord of the admiralty. In the United States the
equivalent is CNO, or chief of naval operations.
Sir Winston
Churchill was possibly the first of all
European statesmen to warn Europe
(and America) about Hitler and the
rising German military buildup. He was
truly a lone wolf in these early years,
and his foresight was not shared by his
colleagues.
Not too long after World War II began, the
Conservatives and Liberals formed a coalition,
and Churchill was named prime minister. There
was no doubt in parliament that he had the best
credentials and the most experience of any of his
colleagues. He rallied his troops, gave profound
speeches between 1940 and 1945, and traveled to
all the war zones during the war.
Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt, and Joseph Stalin
There is an old saying that “no good deed goes
unpunished.” And so it was. Churchill, Franklin
Roosevelt, and Joseph Stalin were conferring outside
their hotel in Potsdam, Germany, to decide the future
of a peacetime Europe. During their discussion,
Churchill received a radiogram that his beloved
country had voted him out as prime minister.
By 1951, Britain was still going through major
reconstruction, and Churchill was again prime
minister. A year later, Princess Elizabeth became
queen of England. One year after that, after her
coronation in 1953, he won the Nobel Prize for
Literature. The same year, the queen knighted
him, and he was forever more known as Sir
Winston. His dedication to his work and his
accomplishments are legendary. He passed away on
January 24, 1965, at the age of 90.L

From the CAM

Greetings to the homeowners and residents of Sun City Carolina Lakes.
As your new Executive Director for the Sun City Carolina Lakes Community
Association, I look forward to meeting each of you and getting to know you in the
coming weeks. My first day on the job at SCCL will be Tuesday, December 20. I
am honored to have been selected as your new Executive Director and realize I
have big shoes to fill. I believe my career path has uniquely and properly prepared
me for this challenge. I consider it a privilege to be a part of your beautiful
community and look forward to serving you.
I want to take this opportunity to introduce myself and tell you a little bit about me.
I grew up in a small community in northwest Iowa. Growing up there I played golf,
tennis, and even did some sailing on the nearby lake.
I earned an Associate’s degree in Culinary Arts from the Culinary Institute of
America. I also studied economics at the University of Iowa. These studies
launched my interest into the field of hospitality services as well as the business
and operational aspects behind hospitality. I soon started my career in the hotel
industry with Helmsley Hotels. That was followed by a move to southern California,
where I worked with the famous Four Season Hotels as an Outlet Manager. It
was here that I received some of my best training in excellent customer service,
hospitality, facilities management, and the business organization necessary to
deliver a great customer experience at a high level.
In the late ‘90s, I ventured into the world of private equity clubs, continuing to
work in California. Later, that work took me across the country, just down the I-77
corridor from Charlotte to your state’s capital, Columbia, SC. I was the General
Manager for the former University Club (now Cobblestone Park). Most recently,
I spent seven years in Florida as Chief Operations Officer and General Manager
with bundled communities that all had golf courses surrounding them.
On a personal note, I have two sons; one is a freshman at Texas Tech University,
and the other is 14 years old. He enjoys basketball, swimming, and is working
towards his Eagle Scout.
It will be a privilege to work with you, the Board of Directors, and the committees,
as we build the next chapter for Sun City Carolina Lakes and strive to make it
the premier community in which to live the active adult lifestyle. I look forward to
starting our journey together on December 20.

Yogi Berra once said,
“The future isn’t what it used to be.”
Post-9/11, nothing could be more true. I don’t think
any of us who were in the DC or NYC area that day
can enjoy a cloudless blue sky the way we once did.
And as a consequence of that day, security procedures
at airports have become far more invasive and
inconvenient.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA),
the agency tasked with airport security at almost all
US airports, is under the monolithic Department of
Homeland Security. Regardless of what we think of
the airport security procedures, they are here to stay.
But for those of us who fly even a couple times a year,
getting into that TSA Pre3 ® line can save a lot of time
and frustration.
TSA Pre3®
(Precheck)
By Bob Poliquin
Here are some encouraging facts provided by TSA:
3 97 percent of TSA Pre3 ® passengers wait less
than five minutes in line.
3Over three million passengers already have
Pre3 ® status.
3 Over 180 airports and nineteen airlines provide
TSA Pre3 ® .
And here is the process:
3 Apply online using this link
(https://www.tsa.gov/precheck).
3 Schedule a ten-minute appointment for an
in-person background interview and
fingerprinting. Pay $85 at the enrollment center.
The website has a link to find an enrollment
center near you.
3 After approval and receiving your Known Traveler
Number (KTN), enjoy five years of Pre3 ®
security at most US airports.
Did you know you can get a five-year Pre3 ® guarantee
rather than hope you get lucky enough to be randomly
selected for Pre3 ® ? It’s not very difficult. Just fill out
a form online, schedule an appointment at a local
enrollment center for your in-person interview and
fingerprinting, and pay the $85 application fee.
As the TSA website says, “No need to remove shoes,
belts, light jackets, laptops or 3-1-1 compliant liquids!”
But there are other benefits. TSA Pre3 ® is not only
for domestic flights. You can use the Pre3 ® line from
your departing US airport for international travel. And
if you are traveling with grandchildren 12 and under,
they can use the Pre3 ® line with you.
When you book your ticket, your KTN will assure that
your Pre3 ® status is on your boarding pass. By the way,
it works for either a paper boarding pass or a boarding
pass downloaded to your smartphone.
By our age, we all have experienced big government
bureaucracy at some level. And face it, it’s a cliché that
seniors complain about the government. TSA Pre3 ®
process, however, is one of the things the government has
made extremely simple. Take advantage of it and enjoy the
relative ease of transiting through US airport security.
If you have questions about TSA Pre3 ® , the website has
an easy to navigate, comprehensive FAQ link. L

THE ONCE
DANISH WEST
INDIES
By Lee Johnston
One hundred years ago, as of January this year, the
United States, after years of negotiations, purchased
the Danish West Indies from Denmark. The price was
a nice, round figure of $25 million in gold, worth over
twenty times that in today’s currency.
The final impetus for the purchase was the fear Americans
had that the Germans would take over the islands and have
a foothold in the western hemisphere. And then
concern the Danish had for their citizens living in
the islands in the troubled months before and during
World War I. Denmark’s continued neutrality was
assured when the transfer was finalized just days
before the United States declared war on Germany.
Today we know the Danish West Indies as the
American Virgin Islands: St. Croix, St. John,
St. Thomas, and the many other small islands and cays.
The history of the islands is quite interesting and includes
Stone Age peoples, the more recent Arawaks and Caribs
visited by Christopher Columbus, the colonizing
Spanish, French, and Danish, and ultimate purchase by
the United States.

Explorers once delighted in naming places they visited,
regardless of whether they’d already been named by the
indigenous people. We owe the name of the Virgin
Islands (both US and the British) to Columbus. The
whole system of islands and cays reminded him of St.
Ursula and her thousands of martyred virgins, and he
named the larger islands for saints and such. Some day
we may see these places revert to their original names,
as has Uluru, formerly Ayres Rock in Australia; and
Denali, formerly Mt. McKinley in Alaska.
The principal economic factor
of the islands has always
been the production of sugar
and rum, which declined
significantly in the late 1800’s
with the rise elsewhere of the
cultivation of the sugar beet.
Today, the principal economic
factor of the islands is rest and
relaxation, good food, great beaches, and abundant
sunshine: Tourism.
Tourists flock to the Caribbean and the Virgin Islands.
The peak tourist season, with appropriately elevated
prices, is December to March. The best time to visit
is off-peak April through June, and even later in the
summer when it’s off-off-peak. Many northerners
wouldn’t consider a Virgin Islands trip in the
summer. What they forget is that the islands’ daytime
temperature, even in summer, is usually around 80°,
and it’s often cooler there than up here. It is certainly
breezier. Yes, there can be hurricanes, and yes, the
temperatures may get a bit higher, but it’s usually a
serene time in the islands. There is plenty of elbow
room and plenty of beach room. There are museums
and plantations to visit, duty-free items to buy in a
relaxed shopping atmosphere, and swimming, hiking,
and snorkeling everywhere, especially in the US Virgin
Islands National Park.

Grand Marais, MN 55604
America’s Coolest Small Town
Thirty-five miles south of the Canadian border,
Grand Marais is an out-of-the-way town of 1,350. It rests
along Lake Superior, which locals call “The Big Lake.”
By Bob Poliquin
a
a Hawaiian pizza—pineapple and ham—comes standard
with ingredients you would never think to put on a
Hawaiian pizza.
How out of the way is this place? If you picture the drive
from Charlotte to Atlanta, you have the travel time from
Minneapolis to Grand Marais. Put another way, it is fourand-one-half
hours north of the Mall of America.
Advertising itself as “the coolest small town in America,”
Grand Marais is a layered joke—well, layered at least on
two levels. With an average high temperature of 72
degrees in August, Grand Marais is cool. It is also an
artist’s haven, which is cool if you are an aging hipster
with another income source. If you seek a quiet place
to write, paint, or take photographs, Grand Marais is
a premier vacation destination.
What do you do once you get there? Here are a few highlights:
Lodging: This isn’t the destination for you if you aren’t
a planner. If you don’t want to camp, you can’t just
spontaneously decide to drop in and stay between June
and Labor Day. Plan to make reservations for the very few
lodging places months in advance, if not a year ahead. For
campers, the campground is a major fixture with numerous
RV and tent sites for folks using Grand Marais mostly as a
staging point for the many nearby adventures.
Hikes: Artists Point alone makes the journey to Grand
Marais worthwhile.
The rocks and water are
like nothing else this
side of coastal Maine,
and the natural light,
especially approaching
sunset, surpasses
embellishment. Further,
there are too many state parks, trails, and waterfalls to
even begin listing. The Boundary Waters Wilderness Area
is unique. It is remote, pristine, protected. If you get into
trouble there, your cell phone won’t help you. So, don’t get
yourself into anything that you can’t get yourself out of.
Food: Like the hikes, the great little restaurants are too many
to list. Nevertheless, here are two restaurants and a donut shop.
Sven and Ole’s overpriced pizza is worth twice the price. Look
at the ingredients before you order. Even something basic like
44 LIVING @ SCCL, January 2017
This next recommendation comes with a warning.
Go to the Harbor House Grille. Order anything you want for
appetizers and a main course and then get the raspberry
cheesecake with the pretzel crust for dessert. Do that and
you will never be satisfied with cheesecake again. You
also must get donuts at the World’s Best Donut
Shop. Get a carrot nut muffin. Get a box of
donuts for everyone else, and get
yourself a muffin and a cup of coffee.
Your only regret will be that you didn’t
get two muffins.
A side note: I was told to try a
fishburger before I left town. I asked the vendor what to
put on it. “It doesn’t need anything,” she said. “Maybe
tartar sauce. If you’re really weird, put ketchup and mustard
on it.” I have no idea how something can be undercooked
and overcooked at the same time, but it was. I think the
fishburger thing is like a local test of strength (like lutefisk)
or a joke they play on tourists.
People: If Garrison Keillor’s A Prairie Home Companion
and the movie Fargo had a love child, it would be Grand
Marais. I found myself just staring at some people,
disbelieving what I was hearing and seeing. If you are not a
local, locals dismiss you like they don’t even see you. How
can they tell you are not a local? In a town half the size
of my sons’ high school, they all know everyone. As with
family, they may not like one another, but you are not in
the family.
I asked one lady at the church we visited if she was a local.
“No,” she said. “I was a teenager when my family moved
here 43 years ago from Minnetonka.”
“How are you not a local after 43 years?” I asked.“I wasn’t
born here,” she said. “All of my kids were born here, but
not me. I’m from Minnetonka.”
There you have it. If you are looking for a place you would
never be unless you were going there, check Grand Marais
off your bucket list. Eat the pizza. Eat the cheesecake. Eat
the muffins. Pass on the fishburger. Go on a hike. And then
skip rocks in the bay of America’s coolest small town. L

Bird Watching:
Eagle Nest Cameras
Do you want a fun activity where you don’t need
to leave your house, but you can bring the best of
nature live to your laptop? Try watching an eagle nest on
a live feed camera. But beware, it can be addictive. The
cameras become operational each season before the eagle
couples lay their eggs and give a 24/7 live feed of life
through incubation, hatching, growing, and fledging.
There is also a chat option available, and you’ve never
seen more enthusiastic and engaged viewers.
There are many eagle cams around the country, but I will
only highlight two of them here.
Northeast Florida Eagle Cam
eagles.org/eagle-nest-cams/romeo-juliet/
This camera site is sponsored by the American Eagle
Foundation (AEF), which is based in Pigeon Forge,
TN, and follows Romeo and Juliet, a mated pair of
eagles who have been documented since 2008. This
makes them at least thirteen years old because bald
eagles don’t reach mating age until five years old. Romeo
and Juliet have returned to the same nest since 2008
and have a 100 percent success rate in raising fifteen
eaglets to fledging (flying from the nest.) The cameras
were installed after the 2012 – 2013 nesting season and
became operational in the fall of 2013.
By Cheryl Poliquin
After the fledglings leave the area and the parents do
some repairs to the nest, both Romeo and Juliet typically
leave the area, only to return again in early September to
start the bonding and mating process all over again. Eggs
are laid around the middle of November, with hatching
occurring close to Christmas.
This year’s eaglets, Liberty and Justice, both fledged the
same day, March 19, at twelve weeks of age. They were
last seen in the area on April 20.
Southwest Florida Eagle Cam
dickpritchettrealestate.com/eagle-feed.html
This cam site differs from the first in that it is sponsored
and maintained by a private business. This site also has a
history of drama, sadness, and triumph.
The original parent couple, Ozzie and Harriet, were first
streamed live to the world in October of 2012. That
season they successfully raised two eaglets to fledging.
The sponsor of the nest camera prefers that the baby
eaglets not be named, so these two eaglets are known as
E1 and E2. Sadly, each of the next two nesting seasons,
one of the two eaglets that hatched died of unknown
causes before fledging.

When It’s Time For A Move To Senior Living,
Trust 65 Senior Street
In March of 2015, a week before E6 successfully fledged,
Ozzie was found injured and disoriented by Florida
Fish and Wildlife officials. He was taken to a wildlife
rehabilitation center where he spent more than three
months recuperating from a broken clavicle and other
injuries. He was released back to the wild in June. In
September, Ozzie was spotted near the nest site, but after
fighting with another male eagle in the area, Ozzie was
reinjured, taken back to the rehab center, and passed
away.
This past nesting season Harriet had a new mate, M15,
and laid two eggs. E7 hatched January 26, 2016, with
E8 following one day later. A little over a week after that,
viewers noted that something appeared to be wrapped
around E8’s foot and tethered to the nest. Wildlife
officials approved a rescue, and E8 was taken from the
nest to the same rehab center where Ozzie had been
treated. A monofilament fishing line was wrapped so
tightly around E8’s leg it was cutting off circulation and
causing swelling. The line was removed, and E8 was
returned to the nest after three days. He was accepted
back into the family, and eagle life went on normally as
both E7 and E8 grew closer to fledging. E7 successfully
fledged first, with E8 taking a little longer to work up his
courage.

But E8’s trials weren’t
over. While perched
on a branch of the
nesting tree at night,
both E7 and E8
were attacked by an
owl and knocked
to the ground. E7,
with more flying
experience, was able
to make its way
back to the nest. E8,
however, was missing
for a week.
\Workers from the rehab clinic, who had spent countless
hours searching for him, finally found him a few hundred
yards from the nest in thick underbrush. Once again, he
was taken to the clinic, where he was treated for a broken
leg and severe dehydration and remained at the rehab
facility for almost four months
before being released back to
the wild in the nest area. E8
was last seen soaring high and
free, beginning his journey
that may have started a little
rough, but held the promise
of better things to come.
As new seasons are preparing
to start for all of the eagle
sites, it is a good time to
bookmark the web pages and
follow these families on their
incredible journeys. But every site has a disclaimer for a
reason. They remind us that we are watching a wild bald
eagle nest, and that, although we hope for good outcomes,
there are many perils that eagle families face, and watching
at times may be difficult. But I’m sure, after just a few
sessions, you will become a regular viewer, too. L

Bits and Pieces
By Bonnie Lawrance, ACSW
Happy New Year –
“Cheers to a New Year and another
chance to get it right.”
– Oprah Winfrey
January is Celebration of Life month,
reminding us that one of the most important things a
person can do for himself or herself is to live life to its
fullest.
The New Year is upon us and maybe this is the time to
take a leap of faith, get out of your comfort zone, and
begin to enjoy new experiences. Start with a clean slate,
begin a bucket list if you don’t already have one, and
start prioritizing what you want to do first. What you
think and how you speak are two of the deciding factors
about how you will live your life. A positive attitude
opens doors, while a negative attitude may close many
doors. If you say “I hope I will go to Europe,” you may
never go; it is only a dream, a maybe. By thinking about
all the negative things that could happen if you travel,
you will never leave town. If you say to yourself, “What
if I get sick when I am there? What if the plane crashes?
What if it rains the whole time I am there? I can go next
year; I am too busy to take the time,” you will delay the
trip indefinitely. Indecision and worry can be crippling.
However, if you say to yourself, “I know I will go to
Europe,” this is a definite yes, and once the decision is
made, peace, freedom, and tranquility will be part of
your life. Going to Spain has been on my bucket list for
many years, so goodbye to indecision. Today is the time
to live a meaningful and adventuresome life. Now is the
time to make reservations, not excuses.
Life is going to happen whether sitting in the house and
doing nothing or beginning to live life today and not
think about what could happen tomorrow. We do not
have a crystal ball, and we cannot predict the future.
Living in the “what if zone” can be paralyzing and can
take away the ability to live an exciting fulfilling life.
“Learn from yesterday, live for today,
and hope for tomorrow.”
– Albert Einstein

Saving Money
Did you know you can save money by shopping at Dollar
Stores, especially at Dollar Tree, where every item costs just
one dollar? For example, all party supplies and greeting cards
sell for fifty cents or one dollar, along with reading glasses,
hair accessories, vases, bowls, mugs and glasses, candy,
snacks, socks, tissues, dishtowels, bowl covers, and much
more. Some of the items, like storage bags, are packaged in
small sizes. If you use a lot of these items, you are better off
buying them in the supermarket when they are on sale.
Best items to purchase in January
a Christmas décor and supplies – Merchants sell
wreaths, lights ,displays, and themed kitchenware at deeply
discounted prices to make room for their spring wares.
a Winter clothes and goods – Now merchants
are thinking bathing suits, not outerwear, boots, wool
sweaters, and pants. They want to make room for spring
merchandise.
a Linens – Department stores discount their linens
in January.
a Cars – The cold and wintery months in January
and February are relatively slow seasons for automobile
dealers. In order to entice buyers, they offer discounts on
new and used cars.
a Fine Jewelry – Early January is the one of the best
times to buy fine jewelry because there aren’t any major
holidays to splurge on, and the merchants are waiting for
customers. Of course, in February prices will go up.
a Calendars – Wall, desk and small purse calendars
are deeply discounted after January 1.
a Fitness equipment – If you want to stay in shape
and don’t like going to the gym, January and February
are the best times to purchase deeply discounted fitness
equipment.
a Electronic Items – Thanks to the Consumer
Electronics Show (CES), where all sorts of fancy, new
technologies are unveiled in the beginning of January,
retailers discount last year’s goods to make room for the
new moneymakers such as big TVs, flashy cameras or
computers. Appliances are also on sale this month. L

JOANNA FLUKE and DIANE MOTT DAVIDSON,
Murder Mystery Authors
JOANNA FLUKE
and the Hannah Swenson Murder Mysteries
This is a series of murder
mysteries that take place in
fictitious Lake Eden, Minnesota.
The main character, of course, is
Hannah Swenson, who operates
The Cookie Jar, a store that sells
coffee and ...cookies. But be
warned, many of her books are like
mini-cookbooks.
Take Candy Cane Murder. This
book is only 150 pages long, but
contains twelve recipes and many
of them are three pages long.
However, this book is a special
Christmas edition and contains
two other short novels by two other
authors. They take pages 161 to
388.
All of the Hannah Swenson novels
follow a similar pattern. Hannah finds a dead body
somewhere and is drawn into finding the culprit. Her
two sisters, Michelle and Andrea, often get involved
in helping her. Hannah has two beaus, Norman, the
staid and reliable dentist and Mike, the sexy cop, each
of whom have asked her to marry him, but she can’t
decide which to choose. Norman often helps Hannah
research the mystery while Mike tells her not to get
involved in police investigations. Toward the end of
the book, the culprit usually figures out that Hannah is
on to him/her and often puts Hannah in quite a bit of
danger.
By Rita C. Arundell
DIANE MOTT DAVIDSON
and the Goldy Shultz Murder Mysteries
This award-winning author has
also written a series of murder
mysteries, much like Ms. Fluke. Ms.
Davidson’s main character is Goldy
Shultz. Like Hannah in the Fluke
books, Goldy is a cook, but she is a
caterer, so her recipes often cover a
wider range of food than Hannah’s.
Her business is named Goldilocks
Catering.
The Swenson books and the Shultz
books have some similarities. Goldy
is married to a cop, while Hannah
merely dates one. Both contain
recipes. Both women find dead
bodies and work on finding the
culprit. While Swenson comes from
the town of Lake Eden in Minnesota,
Shultz comes from Aspen Park (also
fictitious) in Colorado, so cold, snowy
weather is often a part of both novels.
The differences include: Goldy has a son, Arch, from a
previous marriage, and she still has some interactions with
her ex, whom she calls “the Jerk.” And while Goldy has
friends and co-workers she interacts with, she doesn’t have
sisters and a mother who are part of the plots. These books
tend to be longer and have more detail than the Fluke books.
Davidson’s book titles also mention food, like Dying for
Chocolate, Killer Pancake, Sticks and Scones, Prime Cut and
Tough Cookie. There are seventeen books in this series.
Ms. Fluke’s Swenson novels meet with critics and
readers approval and usually get four out of five stars
in their reviews. Some of the other books in this series
include: Carrot Cake Murder, Peach Cobbler Murder,
Blueberry Murder, Banana Cream Pie Murder, etc.
There are 21 Hannah Swenson books so far.
Ms. Fluke has also written other mysteries, much
grittier than those mentioned above. These include
Video Kill and Winter Chill. I’ve read Winter Chill and
thought it was very frightening.
Ms. Davidson won the Anthony Award and the Agatha
Award for her first novel. A reviewer from the Baltimore Sun
said, in part about one of her books: (this is) “a cross between
Mary Higgins Clark and Betty Crocker.” According to the
Los Angeles Times: “If devouring Diane Mott Davidson’s
newest whodunit in a single sitting is any reliable indicator,
then this was a delicious hit.”
So if you like murder mysteries and also like to have some
new recipes, books in either of these series should make you
very happy. L

Paring Down The Paper -
A Realistic Retention Schedule -
Part One
By Lee Johnston
Are you one of those folks who saves every little slip of paper that comes
into your hands? One of those who doesn’t know how long to save
anything, so you save everything “just in case”? If so, you must be testing
the capacity of your many filing cabinets. There is an easy way to rid your
life of unnecessary paper records, trim down your files, and keep just what
records you’ll need to document most situations that could arise. You need a
retention schedule, and you need to stay with it. Once you pare down your
paper, you will be delighted with all the usable space you’ve recovered.
There are several ways to present a retention schedule. Some are organized by
the length of time you should keep a document, from “permanently” down to
“one month.” Some are organized by document name. Our listing, presented
in two parts this January and February, is by the general type of document
that should be retained by individuals. Note: If you run a business, we suggest
you ask your accountant to provide a working retention schedule.
PERSONAL DOCUMENTS
Keep forever in a fire-proof box or safe deposit box:
− Certificates for adoption, birth, death, divorce, educational degrees,
marriage, military discharge, powers of attorney, wills, and living wills.
− Passports, until replaced by current issue
− Current and cancelled insurance policies and legal contracts, for as
long as the pertinent statute of limitations applies
− Receipts for major clothing, jewelry, cameras, artwork, family
treasures (if papers are available), guns, antiques, and furniture, for as long
as you own each item
− Stock certificates, bonds, etc., for as long as you own them
− Titles for vehicles you own
− Most recent photos or video of household and personal inventory
54 LIVING @ SCCL, January 2017

MEDICAL RECORDS
− File evidence of paid bills with that year’s tax return
documentation.
− If you receive monthly reports of drugs and services
from Medicare or your supplementary insurance provider,
keep only the latest cumulative reports. Consider having
these documents and reports sent to you via email.
− File a copy of your living will and medical power of
attorney with your physician’s office, and keep copies in
your working files in case of emergency.
− It is a good idea to create and regularly update a sheet
of your medical information. Copies of this sheet should
be kept in your wallet or purse, in your car, in your freezer
(suitably marked), with your children, and wherever else it
might be handy to have such a record.
HOUSEHOLD AND VEHICLE RECORDS
− Keep in separate files or binder sections: receipts and
warranties for major appliances (you can find appliance
manuals and instructions on line), and other significant
household purchases. Update the file yearly and discard
papers on items you no longer have. When moving, leave
relevant files, if any, with the new owners.
− Keep utility bills until the next bill comes in showing
record of the last bill paid.
− Keep the numbers on a separate record sheet if you are
interested in year-to-year utility usage,
− Keep paid property tax bills with that year’s tax
records documentation.
− Keep vehicle sales papers and repair and maintenance
records for as long as you own the vehicle. Discard or shred
these papers, or pass them on to the new owner when you
dispose of the vehicle.
Part Two: Bank, Investment, and Credit Records,
and Wage and Tax Records, coming in Febuary.
Shredding- If you have many years’ worth of
records to shred, you can consult companies
such as Advanced Bonded Document
Management in Charlotte, or Iron Mountain, a
company that works with local partners such as
the UPS Store in Carolina Commons. If you have
just one year’s worth of documents to shred, a
week or so after Tax Day each April, there is a
vendor-sponsored Shredding Party at the Lake
House Pavilion.
On a day-to-day basis, when discarding any
papers with account numbers or other sensitive
information on them, be sure to shred them.
This includes junk-mail credit and insurance
applications that may be pre-printed with your
name and address. Inexpensive shredders are
available at many of the big box stores. L

The New SCCL Website
By The Communications and
the Technology Committees
The Sun City Carolina
Lakes Community
Association’s Board of
Directors took action in
November to move toward
a new, modern, and easy-to-use
community website by mid-2017.
The current website
(oursuncitycarolinalakes.net) has its quirks,
and it can be challenging to use. Although it is familiar
and we’ve grown used to it, the website in a community
our size needs the capability to perform a variety of new
tasks, such as the ability to:
• Create group email lists
• Easily handle photos
• Easily cut and paste from other software
• Readily access the website on mobile devices
(tablets, phones, etc.)
• Stop “reply all” emails
• Enable clubs to identify paid members online
• Provide public web pages for anyone to view, while
keeping our community information private on
private pages
• Add functions such as ticket sales, scheduling, online
payments, emergency notifications, etc.
We are very excited to
have a new website that
will be easier for all of us—
residents, the Community
Management (FSR) offices,
and Clubs and Interest
Groups—to use. We also can
look forward to the new addon
features it will offer.
The new website will no longer have the
“firstname.lastname@oursuncitycarolinalakes.net”
address that all residents were assigned when they
moved to SCCL. You’ll still be able to receive email
from your clubs and the community, but not at your old
community address.
You can use any non-community email service (Gmail,
Yahoo, Outlook, iCloud, AOL, Comporium, etc.). If you
currently have another email service and email address,
you can continue to use it with no change. However, if
you want to keep your personal and your SCCL email
separated, you can set up a separate email account such as
“mynamesccl@gmail.com.”
A team is already busily working on training materials
that will help us move to the new site. In the
meantime, there are a couple of steps you can take right
now to prepare for the move.
56 LIVING @ SCCL, January 2017

First.
If you are not currently forwarding your SCCL
emails to a non-SCCL email address, you should now
begin to forward your SCCL emails to a non-SCCL
email address.
Instructions to help you with (a) forwarding email and,
if necessary, (b) setting up a new email account, are
available on the current website. Go to Community
Home – Community Documents located on the left side
and click open the folder “Web Site/Email How-To’s.”
You should notify those who correspond with you using
your current oursuncitycarolinalakes.net email address of
your new email address.
Failure to set up a non-SCCL email address will
jeopardize your future access to emails when the new
website is operational.
Second.
Clean out your email on the current SCCL website.
The Technology Committee has advised that it will not
be feasible to transfer any saved or unopened emails from
the old system to the new one. You should forward to
your other email address any emails you want to keep.
This will ensure that any information you now have saved
on the current SCCL website is safely captured before we
move to the new website next summer.
Lastly,
1) delete saved email folders/emails after you have
completed forwarding emails you want to save,
2) review and clean out your Sent folder and
3) permanently delete all emails that are in your
Deleted folder.. Failure to do this may have privacy
consequences.
Please complete the above steps by March 15, 2017.
Don’t leave them to the last minute.
You’ll be hearing more about the features of the new
website and getting a chance to learn how to use it as we
get closer to launch date. In the meantime, doing some
preparation now will make the move easier and simpler
for everyone. L

January Gardening at SCCL
By Jeanette Oesterlin
A Little House of Horrors
always struggle with the January article. I have already
I written about tree planting, and it is too early to write
about spring plants. I usually just say plan, plan, and
plan. Well, that is still true, but I found some interesting
stuff on the internet. I always say, “Don’t believe most
of what you read.” In this case, the numbers may not be
accurate but the general info is accurate.
We would all be shocked to learn what is really in the
indoor air we breathe. Stuff called VOC’s are released by
paint, carpet, cosmetics, printers, pesticides, permanent
markers, glues, dry cleaned clothes, and more. These
‘gems’ can trigger asthma, allergies, headaches, nausea,
and some say serious diseases like cancer.
The Aloe plant is great for
increasing oxygen level in the
home, absorbing carbon dioxide.
The simple Ivy plant removes
harmful particulates from
household and office air.
Mother-in-law tongue is great
in the bedroom as it produces
oxygen during the night.
We all know that plants in our home release oxygen. But
few of us know that they are able to clean the air from
mold and toxins (VOC’s). The statements below come
from a study by NASA and the Association of Landscape
Contractors. The study concludes that some plants are
better than others at cleaning the air and removing
the toxins from the air (including dust, ammonia,
formaldehyde Styrene, feces, etc.).
Here is information on six plants you should keep at
home. This is not the only list of good house plants, but
some the study suggested.
Aloe – This plant is great for increasing oxygen level
in the home because it absorbs the carbon dioxide,
formaldehyde and carbon monoxide. Nine air purifiers
can be replaced with one Aloe Vera plant and you can
58 LIVING @ SCCL, January 2017

use a leaf to rub on a burn. It will be very happy if you
forget to water it. Aloe grows best in dry, well-drained
soil.
Ficus (FicusElastica) – This plant doesn’t need a lot of
light and you can maintain it easily. It is quite effective
in purifying the air of formaldehyde. But avoid it if you
have pets or small children because its leaves may be
poisonous; that is if you have a pet that eats everything.
I have never had a pet that eats poison plants. They seem
to know which are dangerous.
Ivy (Hedera Helix) – this is a must-have herb. If you
buy this plant, within six hours it will remove 58% feces
particles and 60% of the toxins in the air.
Spider plant (ChlorophytumComosum) – This plant
is amazing as it is able to perform photosynthesis under
minimal light. It is great in absorbing toxins from the
air such as carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, gasoline,
and styrene. One plant is enough to clean the air in 200
square meters space.
Snake planet (SansevieriaTrifasciata “Laurentii”) – I
know this plant as Mother-in-law tongue, a name I
prefer. It can perform photosynthesis under minimal
light. It is great to be kept in the bedroom as it produces
oxygen during the night. And best of all, it is very easy
to grow.
Peace lilies (Spathiphyllum “Mauna Loa”) – It
removes toxins from the air, and it also removes
formaldehyde from the air as well as trichloroethylene.
Peace lilies are very forgiving; maybe that is where the
name comes from. If they go flat when you forget to
water them, give them a drink, and they stand up almost
immediately.

GUESS WHO’S
COMING TO DINNER?
A Review by Lonnie S. Knabel
We are celebrating the
fiftieth anniversary of
the release of the landmark
film Guess Who’s Coming to
Dinner. Roger Ebert calls
this film “a magnificent piece
of entertainment.” Indeed it
was, but it was also a biting
social commentary, dealing
with the then taboo subject
of interracial marriage. Interestingly, there is a movie out
now called Loving, about the interracial couple Richard
and Mildred Loving, who were jailed in 1958 for their
marriage, and how their case went all the way to the
Supreme Court in 1967.
One of the most noteworthy elements of Guess Who’s
Coming to Dinner, not at all visible to moviegoers, was
Spencer Tracy’s health. He was so ill that insurance
companies would not insure the film. To offset this,
Spencer Tracy, Katherine Hepburn, and the Director,
Stanley Kramer, all gambled their own salaries on the
film in hopes Spencer Tracy would finish the film. He
died seventeen days after the filming concluded. At
the end of the film, Mr. Tracy gives an eight minute
soliloquy, one of the longest in film history, and he did
it in one take. Many believe that Katherine Hepburn’s
tears are real in that scene, as she watches what she
knows is his last bravado performance, culminating a
brilliant film career.
Katherine Hepurn and Spencer Tracy on set
Mr. Tracy, posthumously,
received his ninth Academy
Award nomination, already
having won the Award twice.
Hepburn and Tracy made
nine films together, and,
although they never
married, were a Hollywood
couple for many years.
Tracy, a devout Catholic, could never divorce his wife.
Hepburn received her second Academy Award for her
performance. Over her lifetime she ultimately received
four Oscars for Best Actress and twelve nominations.
The film garnered ten Academy Award nominations,
receiving a second Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
The dialogue is indeed witty and sharp, and doesn’t gloss
over the problems inherent in an interracial marriage.
It is curious that the filmmakers felt compelled to
make Sidney Poitier’s character an almost perfect man.
Along with Mr. Poitier’s flawless diction, his character,
a doctor who was top of his class at Yale, is on his way
to a convention in Geneva and does philanthropic work
in Africa. It almost seems as if the filmmakers felt it too
risky to have an average black man marry a white girl.
But this is minor.
I have deliberately divulged none of the plot so you can
enjoy every minute of this fifty-year-old classic. L

“Don't Wait You Will Be Amazed!”
BEFORE
AFTER
Why did you decide to have eyelid surgery?
My vision was getting worse. My neck hurt all
the time from having to look up so I could see.
Did you feel any pain or discomfort during the
procedure?
No.
In what specific ways has your life changed since
having eyelid surgery?
I can see so much more around me. I don't
have to keep looking up so my neck is not
hurting anymore.
Was the staff caring and concerned for you
before, during and after your procedure?
Everyone at The Eye & Laser Center was
so caring, from my first appointment to my
last. Thank you all.
What would you say to someone interested in
having eyelid surgery?
Please don't wait. You will be amazed at
how well you can see and look again.

Eyelid Surgery has various functional benefits that result in the improvement of your vision. The removal of excess skin
can have cosmetic benefits and can also restore your side vision that has been blocked by droopy, sagging eyelids.
NOTE: Your insurance may pay for your eyelid surgery.
*Eyelid Surgery is a surgical procedure, and like all surgeries, it has risks. It is important to ask your doctor about the risks unique to you. Results and
experiences with Eyelid Surgery vary from patient to patient.

POTTERY FOR PLEASURE
The end of 2016 continues to find our studio is business
as usual, except after a three year commitment, our
President Jan Tamol and her team will retire for a new
President, Madeline Trionfo.
Jan leaves the studio an organized plastic bin place. Great
shelving for each member and their supplies. Two new
kilns are on their way, as well as a new slab roller with
new canvases for clay. All purchases have been paid for
by our members with dues and ice cream sales.
The club continues to have a Pottery 101 class for
new members, as well as tutorials throughout the
year. Membership continues to hover around 100 paid
members.
Past-president Jan Tamol gets creative.
With a new President, new ideas and training, and,
hopefully, new members, the club will continue with
great pleasure

GOLF, LADIES’ 9-HOLE
“It’s All About The 19th Hole” as the Ladies 9-Hole
League gathered for the closing brunch and toast for the
2016 season at The Tavern at the Lakes on November
15, 2016. The unique table decorations replicated the
uncompromising Hole #6, complete with sand traps and
water hazard, thanks to our ever-talented and creative
Social Committee. Awards were distributed from play
days throughout the season. We were pleased to have
Joan McCord, a founding member, join us and provide
information on the development of the league in 2007.
Throughout the season, the league participates in
Exchange Days with other clubs in the area. On October
11, fifteen players enjoyed the day at Ballantyne Country
Club featuring “The 19th Hole” for the invitational. It is
especially nice to renew acquaintances with ladies from
the other golf clubs throughout the season and to play
our sister courses.
Carolina Lakes Ladies 9-Hole League players
at the Ballantyne Country Club Invitational on
October 11, 2016.
Perhaps you might be interested in beginning the new
year and a new season with the Ladies 9-Hole League.
The 2017 season will begin in March. We welcome
new members and would enjoy having you play with
us and give it a try. You need not be a member of the
Carolina Lakes Golf Course to play with our league, just
a Sun City resident. Please contact Sue Winay for more

The
Science
and the
Law
Behind...
Here in Sun City Carolina Lakes in South
Carolina, we have more than 3,100 homes,
and over ten miles of roads, adjacent sidewalks, and
reasonably maintained walking trails. We are also
a golf cart community with marked golf cart lanes
on our two major roads. In addition, we have a
community-wide speed limit of 25 mph, meaning, in
reality, most folks drive between 25 mph to just under
35 mph on the two major roads, as well as on the
longer stretches connecting distant Pods. And, as we
have all seen, some people drive much faster than 35
mph.
As many of us age, we have become advocates of
the “eat less and move more” philosophy for staying
healthy. We are seeing an increasing number of people
walking and running in the road, rather than on the
adjacent sidewalk, because they believe that asphalt
is “easier on the joints” than concrete. They believe
asphalt is actually softer than concrete. On the surface
(Did you catch that?) it may seem intuitively true
that asphalt has more cushioning give, but is there
any science behind it? My English-major science
experiment would hypothesize this: if you jumped
from a 10’ ladder onto either concrete or asphalt, your
leg would be just as broken. But that’s not real science.
Dr. Jonathan Toker, a PhD and a triathlete, tackled
Concrete
Versus
Asphalt
By Bob Poliquin
this subject in the running blog Slowtwitch.com. His
proposed experiment is equally simple, probably more
scientific, and certainly safer. He suggests bouncing
a golf ball off of both concrete and asphalt, noting,
“The rebound distance will provide an indication
how much energy is absorbed by the surface and how
much energy is returned to the golf ball. A surface
that returns more energy to the ball will also return
more energy to your legs and consequently will feel
harder.” He concludes, “If you do this experiment,
you will find that asphalt and concrete cause the ball
to bounce to nearly the same height.” Toker then goes
into a major discussion on the relative hardness of
various surfaces from clay to steel. You are welcome to
read his findings in full at the link at the end of this
article. But his primary argument is that the difference
between the surface hardness of asphalt and concrete
is humanly undetectable, and running shoes, which
most of us run or walk in, negate any actual difference
entirely.
Well, there you go. Regardless of what your friend may
tell you, the asphalt road is not easier on your joints
than the concrete sidewalk. Toker warns, “At the end
of the day it’s up to you, but science supports that the
most likely running injury you’ll get from running [or
walking] on the road is getting hit by a car.”

A Clear Vision of Excellence PLLC
That’s the science. Now here’s the law. In both North
and South Carolina, it’s illegal to walk or run on the
road when there is a sidewalk available. The North
Carolina law reads: “Where sidewalks are provided,
it shall be unlawful for any pedestrian to walk along
and upon an adjacent roadway.”
And the South Carolina law is very similar: “Where
a sidewalk is provided and its use is practicable, it
shall be unlawful for any pedestrian to walk along
and upon an adjacent roadway.” That’s pretty clear.
I’m not much of a rule follower, myself; nevertheless,
I’ve seen the downed street trees and light poles in
our community. That skinny strip of “common area”
between the road and sidewalk isn’t going to slow the
Cadillac down, but being on the sidewalk may give
you time to get out of the way. If you are walking or
running in the road – good luck, because you could
eventually look like one of those unfortunate turtles
we see as road kill way to often.

Making The
Most Of
By Lee Johnston
Many of our residents might not be aware of
RecycleBank and how to add up points to use
toward great rewards. The rewards include the ability
to order coupons worth $10 off a purchase of $50 or
more at Harris Teeter; buy one, get one free at Moe’s
Southwest Grill, DQ Grill and Chill, and Carvel. You
can also save toward free magazine subscriptions and
other rewards.
Many long-time residents will remember when the
reward for recycling was around 50 points or more each
week. Now, perhaps because God
Bless the USA has only so many
points to give, the reward has settled
at 15. You will see the points posted
to your RecycleBank account every
three weeks or so. Though there are
only 15 points for weekly curbside
pickup, about 75 points a month,
there are now opportunities to earn
extra points each day. In about a
month you can earn up to an extra
230 points toward rewards. This
point reward system is meant to make
us all more aware of the recycling
effort: why recycling matters, what
can and can’t be recycled, the basics
of the recycling processes, and how to
conserve energy and live sustainably.
To enroll, if you’ve not already done so, you must first
call God Bless the USA (704-708-5872) and set up
an account. They’ll tell you how it works, give you an
account number for RecycleBank, and send you a sticker
for your recycle bin or trash can if there is not one
already attached. The code on the sticker, read by the
RFID reader on the recycle truck, will ensure you get the
points for your regular weekly recycling pickup.
The rest of the points-building is up to you. You can
familiarize yourself with the process at the RecycleBank
website – recyclebank.com. Bookmark the website
so you see it and check it every day – including the
weekends. Make a visit to the RecycleBank website a
part of your regular daily online routine. It takes just a
few minutes, and you are earning what amounts to cash
in your pocket.
There are many ways to earn extra points with regular
daily pledges and weekly entries, plus extra points when
you take the quizzes or read about various topics. Look
for “Because You Asked” letters – they usually add five
points. If you see a feature where
you don’t recognize the picture
(be sure to be aware of the
pictures) do check it out. Look
at the earning opportunities on
the top banner. Features and
earning opportunities change
every few weeks.
$
Many long-term residents have
built up a considerable balance
in their RecycleBank accounts.
It’s time to start making use of
what you’ve earned.
If you are a regular shopper at
Harris Teeter, the $10 off $50
purchased coupons can amount to about $600 worth
of savings each year, and that ain’t hay. You can get $5
off $50 purchased at Target; $10 off $30 purchased at
Bed, Bath & Beyond; and other discounts at many local
retailers and restaurants.
You can “spend” about 10 points to enter regular
drawings for gift cards to places like Amazon, Trader
Joe’s, Macy’s, and Dick’s Sporting Goods. And there are
many magazine subscription offers for publications like
Martha Stewart Living, O, The Oprah Magazine, Food &
Wine, Southern Living, and even, if you’re so inclined,
Modern Farmer.

One easy way to cash in, is on purchases at the
local Harris Teeter.
So:
• Every Monday – report your recycling for 10 bonus
points. When you report your recycling five times, you
get a Recycling Royalty award of an additional five
points.
• Every day – take the Daily Pledge for five points.
When you pledge five times, you get a Persistent Pledger
reward of five points.
• Every day – look for new ways to learn and earn points
• The first day of the month or soon after - order that
month’s Harris Teeter $10 off $50 purchased coupons.
Each coupon will “cost” you 100 Reward points.
Make good choices, recycle, and spend your points –
you’ve earned the rewards. L

The Last Word...
FOODS FAST FORWARD >>
By Lee Johnston
Do you remember Lobster Newburg,
Salisbury steak, Chicken a la King, and
that all-time favorite Creamed Chipped Beef on
Toast? This last one was also known to many of
us as S#!* on a Shingle… Well, let’s just say that
time marches on, and, fortunately for us, so have
the trends for what we eat.
We were accustomed to calorie-dense foods,
foods that were relatively inexpensive but filled
us and provided the calories for hard work and
play. Noodles, pasta, potatoes, and bread played
a big part in our diets. Unless it was spaghetti
night, supper was meat, a starch, and a vegetable.
Salads made very rare appearances on our plates.
Farmers markets were few and far between, and
unless your family maintained a vegetable garden,
your veggies were days or even weeks old. The
butcher, the baker, the green grocer, and the milk
man were the common independent purveyors
who now find themselves under one roof in the
supermarket.
Sundays were the days for a huge roast,
perhaps leg of lamb or fresh ham, and all the
accoutrements. Mom spent a lot of the morning
preparing the roast, and the rest of the family
spent the late afternoon working or snoozing
off the effects of the meal. Today, such large
roasts are served mostly on holidays. Many Baby
Boomers don’t even remember a fresh ham,
thinking it’s the non-canned variety of a smoked
ham.
While weeknight desserts were things like jello,
chocolate pudding, or tapioca, Sunday desserts
were presentations: pound cakes, layer cakes,
pineapple upside-down cakes, coconut cream
pies, pies of every flavor, and, in season, things
like buckles and cobblers. In summer, there
might have been a treat of home-made ice cream.
In the Fifties, while we on the western side of
the Atlantic were eating these traditional foods,
people like Julia Child were over in France
learning new ways to cook. No longer was
Chinese cooking just chop suey or chow mein.
No longer was Asian cooking just Chinese.
No longer were chop suey and chow mein or
spaghetti and pizza the only international foods
on our plates.
Television, advances in freezing foods, and
widespread transportation meant that we were
getting a larger variety of fresher foods and were
learning new ways to prepare them. No longer
did one cookbook cover everything we wanted to
prepare. Fanny Farmer, Better Homes and Gardens,
or The Settlement Cook Book have been joined on
the packed shelves by hundreds of others. The
vast variety of subjects to be covered in individual
cookbooks meant that book stores moved the few
cookbooks out of the reference section and began
to devote whole sections of their shelves to them.
Today we aren’t as reliant on seasonal foods,
although eating with the seasons, becoming a
“locavore,” and cooking with what is readily
available from nearby sources is the latest trend,
especially for restaurants. Many restaurants don’t
have freezers, preferring to use only the freshest
ingredients for their menu. And that’s another
difference in the way we eat today: more and
more we choose to eat out. Rather than stock our
kitchens with all the ingredients for international
cuisines, we go to the local places that satisfy our
tastes. Just in our area we can have Asian, Italian,
Greek, Mexican, New York Deli, Southern. You
name it--breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and it’s
nearby. So much food, so little time.
Just wonderin’… …Remember the party
standby, deviled eggs? Just plain deviled eggs.
Today, according to a recent issue of Saveur
magazine, they marinate the whites in soy
sauce and raspberry vinegar - just for fifteen
minutes, mind you - and then fill them with
the yolks that were combined with lump crab
meat, avocado, and apple. Chefs are getting
inventive. Food is getting fancy. It’s probably
a good thing, but we have to wonder what
“comfort food” will be to generations to come.
