Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
Fahrenheit 451 is a dystopian novel by Ray Bradbury
published in 1953. It is regarded as one of his best works. The
novel presents a future American society where books are
outlawed and “firemen” burn any that are found. The title
refers to the temperature that Bradbury understood to be the
autoignition point of paper. The novel has been the subject of
interpretations primarily focusing on the historical role of book
burning in suppressing dissenting ideas. The novel has won
multiple awards. In 1954, it won the American Academy of Arts
and Letters Award in Literature and the Commonwealth Club
of California Gold Medal. It has since won the Prometheus
“Hall of Fame” Award in 1984 and a 1954 “Retro” Hugo
Award, one of only four Best Novel Retro Hugos ever given,
in 2004. Bradbury was honored with a Spoken Word Grammy
nomination for his 1976 audiobook version.
Bradbury published a stage play version in 1979 and helped
develop a 1984 interactive fiction computer game titled
Fahrenheit 451. A companion piece titled A Pleasure To Burn,
consisting of a selection of Bradbury’s short stories, was released
in 2010, less than two years before the author’s death.

Health and Nutrition Strategies For Cancer Survivors and Everybody Else
Food as Medicine
In all of my articles I assert that food is critical to health and quality food is essential to a superior quality of life. So today let’s connect some dots. The
three essential or macro-nutrients are fat, protein and carbohydrates. We’ll start with fat/fatty acids.
Lipid/Fats (Essential Nutrient)
Current study data suggest that a fat imbalance can causes low level chronic inflammation. Low level chronic inflammation can express itself as : Arthritis,
Cancer, Diabetes, Strokes, and Heart Disease. Some of the primary causes of death in the U.S.
How does a fat imbalance occur, and how can we correct it? Here’s a common example that was typical in my family. When my family had bacon we’d
save the grease to fry something else. Usually that was the Friday fried fish, and or my weekend favorite, fried chicken. Well it turns out fat is very fragile.
Heat (frying) degrades the quality of the fat, creating an imbalance, triggering an inflammatory response. Getting back in balance is all about food choices
(food choices probably got you out of balance).
So in this dot connecting exercise, let’s follow the fat to the small intestines. The small intestines are lined with neurons (brain matter), and are critical to
among other things, detoxification, controlling inflammation, and increased immune response. Sound familiar? Hint: Immune system.
Fatty acids, include omega 3 and omega 6. When their balance is not maintained, inflammation will probably occur. The balance is compromised when the
fatty acid chemical bonds are degraded by heat, or processed into trans-fat. To restore the balance, adjust your fat intake. My primary fats are Extra Virgin
Olive Oil, Canola Oil, and my favorite supplement Fish Oil. All mitigate inflammation triggers.
Finally, I’m a disciple of “ Cause and Effect”. My background is in Food Safety, and my degree is in Nutrition Science. I lean toward clinical trials and
study data, in my pursuit of the cause I’m not very influenced by testimonials.
So, after all that, here’s my testimonial: Part of my cancer strategy includes annual bone scans. My original prostate cancer diagnostic scan, in 2005, indicated
extensive arthritis of the spine. I had frequent stiff necks, lower back pain, and even carpal tunnel aches . I was advised by my medical people that it
was probably due to my age. In 2008, I began a regimen of 2400mgs of fish oil a day. In my last 2 scans the arthritis was barely detectable, and I haven’t
had any arthritic aches or pains in years. August 26th, I was 76 years old. It’s got to be the fish oil.
Next month we’ll look at protein.

DEEP CALLETH UNTO DEEP
(Psalms 42:7)
THE LABOR OF REGENERATION: PART I
I entreat you not to leave your heart unguarded, as long as you are in the body. Just as a farmer cannot feel confident about the crop growing in his fields,
because he does not know what will happen to it before it is stored away in his granary, so a man should not leave his heart unguarded as long as he still
has breath in his nostrils. Up to his last breath he cannot know what passion will attack him; as long as he breathes, therefore, he must not leave his
heart unguarded.
Isaiah the Solitary, 4th century
Often lamented in the contemporary Christian West is a dearth of the Faith’s vertical component. There is plenty of horizontal Western Christianity—
there’s plenty of fellowship, and an abundance of charitable works. But introspective Western Christians frequently lament the absence of a serious tradition
of deep spiritual work in their denominations. Indeed, the theology of most Western confessions doesn’t support an understanding of such work; and
(as astonishing as it may seem to an informed Orthodox Christian) this need often appears to go altogether unrecognized.
Perhaps this disconnect of modern Western Christianity from its ancient Orthodox roots proceeds from the recent Western doctrinal novelty of “once saved,
always saved,”— a theology that dangles one’s eternal mantle upon the shaky peg of a single peak experience. If one feels that one’s spiritual task is a fait
accompli, there would seem little for the Christian to do beyond works of mercy and a beckoning to those unfortunates who are as yet unsaved.
And yet, what of the Western Christian who sees beneath the lustrous surface of his new “salvation,” and there perceives the reality of Fallenness? Who
perceives there a corruption and the unblinking darkness within the very fibers of his own personhood, contemporaneous with, contending with the
Light?—and who feels the movement of the darkness without, unsleeping, skulking through the substance of the world, leering just behind the façade?
What of this aware Christian, who is unable to pretend that all is well?
Small wonder that Christianity in the West has acquired among so many serious seekers an image as vapid and irrelevant. Or that so many serious Westerners
abandon the Christianity of their childhood for Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Native American spirituality—and even Islam—world views that
offer well-articulated theologies that speak frankly to their existential horror; theologies that are often accompanied by ancient and sophisticated traditions
of deep spiritual work. And just as tragically, many seekers despair and retreat into an angry, dissipating humanism. Or they abandon themselves to drugs,
alcohol, thrill-seeking, sexual license, and other brief flights of escapism.
It was from such an horrific background of unanswered existential grief, and of desperate spiritual seeking, and of despair and degradation, that a certain
contemporary American, a man of rare brilliance, one Eugene Rose (1934-1982), extricated
himself. And, having once found the vein of Light, he abandoned horizontal meandering, and
embarked unflinchingly upon a life of deep, vertical, transformative Christian ascetical work as an
Orthodox Christian monk. From the monastery that he helped to found in the wilderness of
Northern California, he established a ministry of the printed word that even now, over three
decades after his death, testifies to the potential for real change of the deep heart through the
authentic, ancient Christianity. It was to those who, like him, knew experientially the deep horror
of Fallen existence, that he spoke especially. “How many honest searchers, if they knew all that
[Christianity] really was, would not hesitate to embrace it?”

Concealed Carry Law in NC
North Carolina’s pistol permitting and concealed carry permit laws qualify as an alternative
to the requirements of the Brady Law. Therefore, when a person desires to purchase a handgun
from a federally licensed dealer, the person needs to comply solely with North Carolina’s pistol
permit laws, and present a valid permit to purchase a handgun or valid North Carolina issued
concealed carry permit. (Please note: Even if a NICS inquiry by a federally licensed dealer was
done in this circumstance, it does notdo away with the necessity for a pistol purchase permit.)
As always, any other transfer between private individuals is also governed by North Carolina’s
pistol permit laws.
Under North Carolina law, it is unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to sell, give
away, transfer, purchase, or receive, at any place in the State, any pistol, unless the purchaser or
receiver has first obtained a license or permit to receive such a pistol by the sheriff of the county
where the purchaser or receiver resides, or the purchaser or receiver possesses a valid North
Carolina issued concealed carry permit. This requirement to obtain a permit prior to the transfer
of a pistol applies not only to a commercial transaction, typically at a sporting goods store, but
also between private individuals or companies throughout North Carolina. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-
402(a).
In addition, this State law has been interpreted to require that a pistol permit be obtained by
the receiver of a handgun when such person inherits a pistol as a result of the death of another
person. The permit should be given to and retained by the seller or donor of the handgun. In such
a case, the permit should be given to the executor or receiver of the estate of the deceased person.
If the purchaser or receiver uses a North Carolina issued concealed carry permit for the transfer,
the seller should reference such permit on a bill of sale.
Further, it is unlawful for any person to receive from any postmaster, postal clerk, employee
in the parcel post department, rural mail carrier, express agent or employee, or railroad agent or
employee, within the State of North Carolina, any pistol without having in his or her possession,
such a pistol purchase permit or North Carolina concealed carry permit.

COASTAL STUDIES INSTITUTE
ANNOUNCES 2015 DASH SYMPOSIUM
UNC Coastal Studies Institute is pleased to announce the return of DASH (Design+Art+Science
+Humanities), a bi-annual, three-day academic symposium exploring the intersection of art and
science this October 1-3 at various Outer Banks venues. The event series is being produced in
partnership with the East Carolina University School of Art and Design, College of the Albemarle,
Dare County Arts Council, Pocosin Arts and is sponsored by the Outer Banks Visitors
Bureau and the Town of Manteo.
Established in 2013 by the University of North Carolina’s Coastal Studies Institute in Wanchese,

humans use to navigate them in the 2015 Boats and Boards, Ripples and Waves program.
This year’s keynote speaker is the incomparable Reuben Margolin, an American-born artist and
sculptor known for his mechanically driven kinetic sculptures of wave-forms. His work has garnered
international acclaim and speaks directly to the interchange between the art and science of
waves. A presentation of his work can be seen here at a 2012 TED Conference.

Dear Dr. Crime
Dr. Crime is a pseudonym for a social scientist holding
a Ph.D. degree in sociology and in criminology. He has
worked in all major parts of the criminal justice system.

If you or your child is in trouble, he may be able to help,
give him a call (2523390000)
Dear Dr. Crime: How many people are on Death Row?
Reader
Dear Reader.
At the end of 2013, combining state and federal statistics, we had 2,979 prisoners awaiting execution.
The chances of being executed were low, as last year only 35 were executed. The states all
use lethal injection to execute.
Dear Dr. Crime: My daughter married a bum, a really rotten fellow and I am afraid he will hurt
the kids or my daughter. I think he drinks too much. Do things like that happen as often as our
TV suggests?
Scared Parent
Dear Scared: The US Bureau of Justice Statistics tells us that what you are afraid of was 11% of
all violence from 1998 to 2002, and about half were against a husband or wife. Of those assaults,
murder was less than half of 1%. The numbers are falling.
Dear Dr. Crime: I am a good looking woman, what are my chances of being raped?
Hot Chick
Dear lady: You have a high chance. One in five women will be raped at some point in their life.
Men don’t have that risk as only one in 71 men will be raped. You reduce your chances by being
with other people and using common sense. Adding up all cost, each rape cost $151,423. What
is really sad is that one in four girls and one in six boys will be sexually abused before they turn
18 years old, often by family members. I get really mad at bullies, and the worse of all are the
bums that hurt little kids.

Gun Tips
By: Lloyd “Duke” Hodges
There are about 150 semi-automatic pistol models available
to the public. When you consider the variations in barrel
length, calibers, materials used in manufacturing that
number may well triple. The revolver, while not as popular
as it was in the past, is still a significant contender. There
are various calibers available for most of today’s firearms
which offer more flexibility. I now use a Beretta 92FS in
which I can cram 18 9MM rounds. On the flip side that
thing is not light but the tradeoff is that it is accurate.
Weight is of course important. Would you carry a five pound fifty caliber gun? Before you
decide what to purchase, evaluate the purpose of the firearm, your physical abilities and how
you will carry it. Then visit a reputable dealer who will assist and guide you in making the right
decision. Remember if you decide on a great big gun it more than likely will end up unused,
become a paper weight or stuffed in a closet. A rule of thumb is to carry as much as you can
safely handle. For example, I have a .357 magnum revolver which is comfortable. The best
part is its ability to handle two calibers; 38 special and .357 magnum. Now get ready for the
sticker shock. Guns ain’t cheap. Costs vary from a few hundred to thousands of dollars.
Ammunition is also expensive. You will have to determine what will serve your needs.
Another expense is the holster. Get the best you can afford; you may find that one is not
enough. Winter attire will make one unit better than another for ready access. Now that you
have all that you believe you require, get instruction in how to shoot well.
BE ALERT, BE SAFE, BE ALIVE!!!

The Camden Public Library was alive with the sound of music this summer as part of our annual Summer Reading
Program. A combination of events for children ages birth to teen and a reading incentive program that rewarded children
for time spent reading over the summer, the library was buzzing with activity throughout this year’s incredibly
successful six-week program. Events varied from more traditional storytimes for the younger crowd to more educational
and creative programming for the older ages, all based on this year’s theme, “Read to the Rhythm”. While Library
Summer Reading Programs have always been a source of fun for families over the school break, recent research
indicates that participants also score higher on reading achievement tests upon return to school than those who do not
participate. With such data in mind, participants were also given a reading log to keep track of the time spent reading
this summer—every 20 minutes read earned them an entry form for one of 16 prizes that were raffled off at the end of
the program. For many, the prizes were the highlight of the program, a combination of donations and purchases from
local community businesses and organizations collected by the Friends of the Camden Library. Participation in this
year’s program far surpassed the previous two years, with an average of 65 event attendees weekly and over 230 reading
logs distributed. An amazing 3,493 entries were submitted and a total of 69,680 minutes were logged by readers.
Particularly considering the proven gains for children who continue to strengthen their reading skills over the summer
break, we at the Camden Public Library couldn’t be happier with the success of this year’s program and what it means
for our young readers’ future achievements. A special thanks to this year’s donors for helping us provide a variety of
fantastic prizes! We would like to recognize Towne Bank—Camden Branch, Dockside Restaurant, Camden Shell Station,
Belcross Bakeshoppe, Hairways Salon, the Camden Sheriff’s Office, and the Camden County Fire Department
for their generous support.

Angela Welsh Third Ward City Council Write-in
Elizabeth City, NC – “The Pen is Mightier than the Sword”. Angela Welsh, a longtime local government and private
sector employee, launched her write in campaign for a Third Ward City Council seat today. “Residents of the
Third Ward are looking for a change in the status quo and I look forward to serving them and adding another voice
of leadership, civility and expertise to City Council,” said Welsh.
Welsh, a Summerfield subdivision resident stated that “to be a great City, we must address many critical issues,
including: economic development, aging infrastructure, supporting our local businesses, supporting city services
including our police and fire departments, providing our youth with the tools they need to succeed and ensuring our
senior citizen population is aware of the services regional agencies can provide them.
She went on to say that “progress in our City will only be realized when residents of the Third Ward elect responsible,
civil representatives who vote for the best interests of our City instead of their own personal agendas.”
As a long-time local government and private sector employee, Welsh has a deep understanding of the issues facing
Elizabeth City and has forged many professional relationships across the State of North Carolina as well as the
Hampton Roads region of Virginia, she said.
Welsh is a 1995 graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University where she received a Bachelor of Science degree
in Urban Studies and Planning. In her career, she has drafted, and been awarded, over $1 million in grants for local
government projects. She also holds a certification in Low Impact Development from NC State and is also a North
Carolina Certified Floodplain Manager.

Area businesses and service providers still have time to register to participate in this year’s Perquimans County
Business Expo on Thursday, Oct. 8 at the Perquimans Recreation Center in Hertford.
Sid Eley, director of the Perquimans Chamber, said registration to participate will continue until Sept. 15.
“We are still taking applications and we encourage local businesses to take advantage of this fun-filled networking
opportunity,” said Eley. “We drew over 400 people to the expo last year and we hope to break that record this
year.”
This year’s expo features the theme “Cultivating Business – Planting Seeds for Success” and pays tribute to the
area’s agricultural and country heritage. In fact, the expo also includes a Country Hoedown, free entertainment,
live demonstrations including butter churning, and even a Hollering Contest.
“I’d enter the Hollering Contest if they’d let me but I doubt they’d let me since I work for the Chamber,” laughed
Cathy Wilson, Eley’s assistant. “I needed to get a hold of Sid one day but he’d left his cell phone in the office. I
knew he was in the neighborhood so I stuck my head out the Chamber’s front door. I saw him walking near the
Methodist Church over in the next block so I hollered at him. He heard me immediately so I guess I holler real
well.”
Antique farm equipment will be on display, a free spa will pamper attendees, and free windshield washing for
vehicles will also be available. Lunch will be offered by members of the InterCounty Ruritan Club. Fifteen area
restaurants and caterers will offer food samples during the Country Hoedown. A Chefs and Sweets Challenge (a
penny a vote) will benefit the Jimmy “Catfish” Hunter ALS Foundation.
Expo hours run from Noon to 4 p.m. and the Country Hoedown runs from 5-7 p.m. Admission to the Expo is $1.
Admission to the Country Hoedown is $10.
For more information on participating, download an application at www.visitperquimans.com or call the Chamber
office at 252-426-5657.

Tyrrell County, North Carolina Genealogy
By Jimmie Fleming mrflemz@embarqmail.com
Charles Barnes is the creator and webmaster of the Internet site known as “Tyrrell County, North Carolina Genealogy.”
This site is part of the North Carolina Genweb Project and is one of if not the most comprehensive county genealogical
site in the project. The website is located at http://www.ncgenweb.us/tyrrell/TYRRELL.HTM and includes many great
genealogical resources. Charles has done a fantastic job promoting and displaying Tyrrell County research resources
since 1997 through Bible records, tax records, census records, wills, deeds, marriage records, and death records. You
can actually view a photo of real death certificates from 1913-1935 which is great. He has also been a staunch
supporter via the Internet for the Tyrrell County Genealogical and Historical Society by offering membership
applications online. Charles Barnes was born in Washington, DC. He is the son of the late Charles Wilson Barnes who
was in the US Army Band stationed at Fort McNair. Charles traces his roots to Tyrrell County through both the Barnes
and Brickhouse families. His great-grandparents were Wilson I. Barnes and Sarah Rhodes (paternal) and William
Brickhouse and Georgianna Merritt (maternal) all deeply rooted Tyrrell County families. Charles graduated from
Virginia Tech in 1964 and went into the Regular Army as a lieutenant. He spent the next 25 years as an infantry officer
and an aviator which included two tours in Vietnam. In 1980 he was assigned to the Pentagon and spent the next eight
years there until closing out his military career as a lieutenant colonel. He has continued to work there since retirement
as a computer systems analyst, programmer and database administrator. Charles has made northern Virginia his home
and has one son and five adopted children from other marriages. His hobbies include genealogy, gardening, fishing, and
history (especially of the Civil War since he had 3 great-great-grandfathers from Tyrrell County who served during the
War Between the States). Tyrrell County and researchers should thank Charles for the fine job he has done representing
our county in cyberspace through his gracious efforts on this website.
THANK YOU CHARLES, for your dedication and contribution to Tyrrell County and those interested in
researching their connection to it!
Great Bridge Battlefield &
Waterways History Foundation
The Battle of Great Bridge on December 9, 1775, played a critical role in the Revolutionary War and the subsequent
creation of our great nation. It was this Patriot victory that forced Lord Dunmore, British Royal Governor of
Virginia, and his soldiers to evacuate and ultimately leave Virginia. As a direct result of this victory, four days after
this crucial battle, the Virginia Convention adopted the first public declaration expressing a spirit of independence.
How different our country might be had it not been for the Battle of Great Bridge and the significant contributions
of our waterways.
The planned replacement of the bridge spanning the Intracoastal Waterway in Chesapeake, Virginia by the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers in the mid 1990’s, provided the final opportunity to reclaim and preserve an irreplaceable
piece of American History. In order to save and preserve the battlefield and promote the national importance
of the battle and the Albemarle and Chesapeake and Dismal Swamp Canals, immediate action was needed. To this
end, a group of prominent citizens formed The Great Bridge Battlefield and Waterways History Foundation and
created partnerships with the city of Chesapeake, state of Virginia, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, public and
private organizations, and businesses and individuals to together create a museum/visitor center, public park, and
trail facility. By 2013, over 6 million in cash and in-kind service donations, grant awards, and government support
has been put to work. The Historic Park is open to the public and construction of the museum/visitor center is
underway.
For more information about this magnificent project, our annual events, available naming rights, or the annual
battle reenactment, please visit our website gbbattlefield.org or contact the Foundation office at 757-482-4480 or

Island Breeze – A Culinary Delight
by C.L. Cooke
Doris and Shem Johnson have provided downtown Elizabeth City with one of the finest complements to
dining I could hope for. Our local vinegar based culture can be elevated to a dining pleasure accentuated
with a spice and herb combo.
Thyme, garlic, curry, green onions, and other secret spices flavor chicken, beef, turkey, goat, and fish to a
mouth watering level. The heat from these flavors is never overwhelming. But, one can cleanse the palate
with a cool and leveling taste from the fresh fruit and salad bar. Cantaloupe, grape, strawberry, cucumber
salad, and mixed green salad allowed me to restore my taste buds for the next spice filled taste from the
daily buffet.
Soybean oil is used for cooking most entrees with its healthy effects on the body. Some people apply the
oil directly to the skin to repel mosquitoes and other insects.
Local fruits, vegetables including cabbage, collards, and tomatoes are presented while most of the spices
are also home-grown and hand-picked.
Do yourself, friends, and loved-ones a favor while enjoying a nutritious dining experience like no other.
Though Island Breeze is closed Saturday, the M-F buffet runs from 11-4 and Sunday serves from 12-7.
Call 338-0048 for more information on desserts, specialty salads, and non-alcoholic drinks. Domestic beer
is $2.00 on Monday and Tuesday. The dark mahogany accent in the restaurant emanates an elegant and
soothing aura of aristocracy.
You’ll leave feeling like a King.

More on Pier Fishing.....
by Jake Worthington
As I am sitting here writing this column, I just came to the realization that summer is almost over! Where did it go?
It just seems like yesterday that I got out of school for the summer, and now it is time to go back. I did have a very
good year on the fishing front during this summer. I spent a lot of time on the pier planks at Avalon Fishing Pier. My
days began at around 300AM, and I was usually the first person there to claim my spot on the end of the pier for live
baiting. Being on the water every morning also gave me a front row seat to the most beautiful sunrises over the
eastern waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Pier fishing is a great way to fish, and many a successful charter boat captain
got their start on the pier. When you think about it you are on a stationary fishing platform, where the fish have to
come to you. You have to be ready when they are because you may only get one shot at hooking that trophy fish.
Pier fishing during the summer is a great way to meet new people who share your love of the sport of fishing.
The people visiting the pier change from week to week as they come to the Outer Banks for their summer vacation. There are also the same group of “Pier
Rats” who hit the planks every day. They show up before they go to work to take advantage of the morning sunrise Bluefish and Spanish Mackerel blitzes.
Others, like me, are on break from school or college while others are retired. Some hardcore fisherman will take their two week vacation, and spend it on
the pier fishing. Some bring their whole family and make it a family event. Fishing on the pier is sort of like a social event because you get to meet new
people and see old friends. Some people I have met while growing up on the pier come back year after year to fish on the pier while on vacation. Some
people you meet and never see again, and then there the ones you build lifelong friendships with.
The pier is a great place to grow up on throughout the years. A lot of older fisherman are there to dispense advice on fishing and on life. You experience
the loss of old friends as death claims them. When you return to the pier they are no longer there, but their memory still is present, as you and others
reminisce about them. The fishing elders of the pier lookout for the younger ones and help keep them in line. One of our experienced fisherman even
staged a knot tying class at the picnic table, and about six of us kids soaked in his knowledge like a sponge. You can really learn a lot on the fishing pier,
not only about fishing, but about life in general.

Does Anyone Aspire To A Living Wage,
by C.L. Cooke
The table below shows us that the minimum wage as currently set requires one to seek public assistance or a second job in order to meet their basic
needs. In short, one adult earns about $4,000 per year less than the local cost-of-living in Pasquotank County, NC.
In conclusion, the living wage for a single adult would not require or qualify one for public assistance. The impact on cost to the employer which is usually
passed on to the consumer is an exercise in graduate level economics and finance. But let’s find out what the people think about how to raise folks
out of poverty, or is it just an exercise of futility.
Please complete the choices below and follow the directions to have your choice counted.
__Government regulations drive costs too high for the poor person to escape poverty.
__Government assistance is designed to keep people dependent.
__A true free market economy is best to provide a chance to live above poverty.
__I live better with government assistance than working for minimum wage.
Remember, voters can change the workings of government, but do we know what can change the desire of a person to succeed.

Panzanella – Summer On A Plate
By Rosie Hawthorne
Kitchensaremonkeybusiness.com
Panzanella is a classic Tuscan bread salad celebrating the last vegetables of your
garden’s bounty. No doubt invented out of necessity, panzanella was created by
frugal Italian cooks as a way to utilize stale bread and beautiful summer vegetables.
Basically a “poor man’s dish,” panzanella comes from humble origins, belonging to
farming traditions when farmers would simply take stale bread and tomatoes with
them to the fields for breakfast. With the addition of vividly colored, bright
vegetables, it’s the quintessential summer salad with a rustic, light, and fresh flavor.
Panzanella Salad
For the croutons:
1 loaf day-old rustic, hearty bread,
torn into 1-inch cubes
2 TB extra virgin olive oil
2 TB unsalted butter, melted
freshly ground salt and pepper, to taste
Heat oven to 300°. Place a baking sheet in the
oven with two tablespoons butter on it and let the
butter melt as the oven heats. Remove pan from
the oven, add the olive oil, then quickly toss the
bread crumbs in the pan to coat with the oil and
butter. Season with freshly ground salt and pepper.
Bake until croutons are light brown and crunchy,
about 25 minutes.
While the croutons are baking, make the
vinaigrette and prep the vegetables.
For more recipes and tours through Rosie’s Garden, visit me at KitchensAreMonkeyBusiness.com.
For the vinaigrette:
1 garlic clove, minced
1 shallot, minced
1 TB lemon juice
2 TB red wine vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/3 cup extra virgin fruity olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground
pepper, to taste.
Combine first 5 ingredients, then
gradually whisk in the olive oil to
form an emulsion.
Season to taste.
Did you know the Albemarle
Tradewinds is located in more
than 200 locations in NENC
and Chesapeake?
For the salad:
3 large ripe tomatoes, cut into ½ inch cubes, preferably those
vibrantly-hued heirloom tomatoes (You want a mix of color.)
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
2 bell peppers, cut into ½-inch cubes
I always use a combination of colors - green, yellow, orange,
and red peppers. I like the pretty.
1 medium red onion, chopped
1 cup loosely packed basil leaves, torn
Combine salad ingredients and croutons. Pour vinaigrette over
top and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and epper. Let
mixture sit at least 30 minutes. This is where the magic happens.
The longer it sits, the juicier it gets and the bread is able
to absorb the tomato juices and all those seductive flavors.
Serve at room temperature.

Quakers, Manumission, and the Underground Railroad
by Wanda E. Hunt McLean
wehunt@roadrunner.com
December 15, 1796
TEN DOLLARS REWARD.
MADE his escape, on the 16th instant, near Hertford, in Perquimans, my negro fellow JOB; he is about 5 feet 6 inches, rather black, has remarkable small
feet and hands, 25 or 30 years of age; he was bred in Perquimans, and probably he my be lurking about there, as he has a mother and other relations not far
from Hertford; he was one of the negroes emancipated by the Quakers, and taken up and sold by order of court; it is more than probable that they may wish
to secret him; all those who offend that way, may rely on being dealt with in the utmost severity of the law. The above reward will be given to any person
that will deliver said negro to me, or confine him in goal [jail] so that I get him again, together with all reasonable expences.
Pasquotank, Nov. 28, 1796 THOMAS POOL
The above slave runaway ad was published in the State Gazette of North Carolina (Edenton), 1791-1799, and it represents Quakers and the manumission of
their slaves, which was very prevalent in northeastern North Carolina.
Quakers believed in peace, a simple life, equality, and integrity. They also believed that slavery caused idleness in their children. The leaders of their religion
finally ruled that one could not remain in the sect if they owned African or American Indian slaves. The Quakers tried to find ways to free their slaves.
Because of this law in their religion they involved themselves in manumission, or to free somebody from slavery. In 1777 the North Carolina General Assembly
passed a law to stop manumission entitled “An Act to Prevent Domestic Insurrection.” In Perquimans the Quakers were freeing their slaves. They
were captured by the sheriff and resold back into slavery. This activity happened over and over again. Finally in 1786 a group of Quakers presented a petition
to the General Assembly requesting that freed slaves not be captured and sold back into slavery. This petition was denied.
Quakers were against breaking the law, but this did not stop their Underground Railroad activities. The legal avenue was not working and as a result the
Quakers developed a strong secretive network of conductors and stations throughout the South. For North Carolina I have seen references for a network of
Underground Railroad activity between the towns of Goldsboro, New Bern, and Rich Square. A large operation of activity took place at the home of Henry
and Dorothy Copeland, Quakers originally from Perquimans, and Chowan counties. It is documented on file in the Friends Historical Collection at Guilford
College that this couple was instrumental in safely hiding and guiding over 300 runaway slaves to freedom through their house in Rich Square. This
couple’s work has been recognized and designated as part of the Underground Railroad story through the National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom
Program-National Park Service. This does not even touch on the work of Levi Coffin and the New Garden Friends Meeting in Greensboro, Guilford
County.
“The Underground Railroad and the Manumission and Colonization Society of North Carolina were both tools of Guilford County Quakers. Settlement of
freed slaves was made in Haiti and Liberia, with Guilford Quakers involved all the time.

One shipload of freedmen was diverted to New Orleans
by a greedy captain, who sold them back into
slavery. One of the slaves had been taught to write by
the Quakers, and he succeeded in sending back a letter.
Thereafter, a representative of the Quakers was on
every ship until the people were landed in a safe port.”

Louis C. Tiffany: Art and Innovation
By: Wanda Lassiter, Curator, Museum of the Albemarle
On September 22nd, the Museum of the Albemarle will open its newest exhibit Louis C. Tiffany: Art and
Innovation. The name Tiffany is recognizable to many but few may know that Louis Comfort Tiffany, famed
for his innovations in glass, was the son of Charles Tiffany, founder of the internationally acclaimed Tiffany
and Company. Featuring pieces on loan from private collectors and several institutions, the exhibit tells the
story of the companies created by father and son as well as putting Tiffany’s stained glass in the context of
the broader Art Nouveau style.
Glass such as those pieces seen in the Tiffany exhibit require special handling and cleaning techniques.
The American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works has a great website that will help

Northeast North Carolina Family History - The Internet (continued)... By: Irene Hampton -
nencfamilyhistory@gmail.com
In August, I joined over 80,000 volunteers in a worldwide indexing event sponsored by FamilySearch. Over 12 million records were indexed and my effort
involved South Carolina death records in the 1950’s. Not even a drop in that huge bucket, but a contribution none the less.
FamilySearch is the free website for genealogy research provided by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons). On that site you can
create your tree and add photos, create an album, add stories, documents or audio. After starting your tree, when you select a person to look at, Research
Helps will appear on the right side of your screen with Records Hints that list records that person appears in, like census or vital records. These can then be
added to that individual’s record as documentation.
To quote the site: “FamilySearch Family Tree is a collaborative pedigree that enables people to work together.” Their tree allows families across the world
to share and build their genealogy. But be warned that this also allows others to “change” information they feel is incorrect which can get interesting. One
great benefit is that pictures of family members you didn’t know existed may be added by someone. I’ve not had that experience yet, but know others who
have.
The site’s Learning Center has hundreds of genealogy courses, including 21 “5 Minute Genealogy episodes”. The site also offers research information in
14 languages.
Many local researchers have been dismayed as county records, particularly early will books, have been sent to Raleigh. I would ask my class to follow
these instructions to find digitized versions of many county records. On the FamilySearch website, click the Search link, under the map to the right, click
on the Browse All Published Collections link and scroll through over 2000 alphabetical listings to the North Carolina Probate records, 1735-1970 link.
Don’t be afraid to click on the Browse through 1,147,259 images link as it will then give you a list of North Carolina counties. Chose the county of your
interest and you will see various records: bonds, orders and decrees, will indexes and will books. As each image, not just page is numbered, be aware that
images numbers and page numbers will be slightly different.
The US Census from 1790 through 1840 is available and it is indexed - in fact, volunteers got the 1940 census indexed here before Ancestry.com did! A
camera image to the left of a collection indicates digitized images are available. If Browse Images appears to the right of a collection, the records are available
but not yet indexed. There are over 150,000 digitized family history publications available under the Books tab on the home page. There is a blog and
a wiki (over 80,000 articles) with additional helps for beginners or advanced researchers.
As I stated previously, this is my favorite free site and it continues to grow daily. Let me know what you think. I’ll list a number of great internet links to
other helpful sites in the not too distant future. Stay tuned.

Bryon’s at 110. N. Poindexter – Somewhere In Time by C.L. Cooke
Good things should never be forgotten. The food, preparation, and spirit emulate the local Hot Dog stand of
the 1950’s…but improved. Stacey and Bryon Hickman are both local born and reared. Northeastern North
Carolina BBQ is minced with coleslaw on…and so it is at Bryon’s. Then what in the world is the Nixon’s
BBQ doing on a hot dog bun? Because this is a hot dog stand first, and then some. Orange, lemon, and lime
are squeezed fresh to remind us of the local soda fountain . There is an assortment of novelty candies and
other drinks that correctly complement the Hot Dog and BBQ. The grilled hot dog on the steamed bun is made
distinctive by the 11 ingredients found in the chili preparation. Some may want to add an old school twist with
pig’s feet or a Kosher or Sour Dill pickle on the side. While the Hickman’s have captured the rural charm of
the past, they create a spiritual atmosphere of reverence and courtesy.
The radio plays contemporary Christian music at an easy to digest volume. Bring the kids. With Fall and
Winter approaching, we can anticipate homemade soups and chicken potpie. Even now you can munch the
homemade desserts and wash it down with a cup of Maxwell House coffee, or hot chocolate.
Don’t forget; on the way out you can take a jar of Chapanoke honey home. Honey will not spoil.
Enjoy time downtown Elizabeth City and experience

Next Evolution Wrestling
If you weren’t sitting in a chair at the Elizabeth City National Guard Armory August 22, then you
missed an exciting night of wrestling action. Loyalties were tested, alliances were made and chaos
reigned.
The night started with a few rookie guys looking to make a name for themselves. However, long time
tag team and former NEW tag team champions Army of 2 taught the newcomers a few lessons that
they won’t be forgetting anytime soon.
Tag team champions The Geordie Bulldogs again showed their dominance in this sport by fighting a
hard battle against Outlaw Inc. In the end the Bulldogs defeated Outlaw Inc, and succeeded in creating
a rift in the team. Sam Bass blaming Ryan Nuzzi for their loss, walked out on his partner. What this
means for their tag team no one knows yet.
Main event, set to be the ultimate battle. AIWF champion Damien Wayne against NEW champion
Beau Crockett, title against title. It started off with each champ trying to out wrestle the other. As
Crockett started getting the upper hand, Wayne resorted to cheating, pulling every dirty move he could.
After an impressive belly to belly suplex off the top rope Crocket began to get the upper hand only to
have Sahara Se7en come out to interfere. This biggest surprise of the night was when Sterling Williams
came out to help his friend Crockett and instead, pulled a double cross by attacking him along
with Curtis Mack. In the end Beau Crockett won by a DQ and retained his title, but did not win the
AIWF Heavy weight championship from Damien Wayne.
Join us Oct. 31 at 7:30 pm to see the aftermath of the betrayals and new alliances.
Costume contest, candy, prizes and great wrestling action, you don’t want to miss this!

The Forgotten American ( The Yeoman, The English Longbow, and ALL THE KING’S MEN )
The historical significance of the American Civil War is at best a footnote in the overall view of Western
Civilization. It’s significance can be summed up under two themes: 1) The American Civil War was the last
conflict to end European feudalism. 2) The American Civil War was one of a numerous series of conflicts
to resolve Western Civilization’s continuous struggle and reconciliation of the Master/Slave relationship. The
Master / Slave relationship dilemma is a relationship in which one individual serves another in an authorityexchange-structured
relationship. This conflict/relationship among Western people has fingerprinted Western
Man since antiquity, and it continues be a modern problem of Western Civilization. Both conclusions are
admittedly tentative, considering the voluminous amounts of information on the subject of the Master/Slave
Relationship and English Feudalism in the context of the American Civil War or even Western Civilization. If
we limit our scope of discussion within the historic framework of the British-Anglo-African-American experience,
we will discover the seemingly modern American “ racial conflict” actually has its roots in the midst
of Sherwood Forest and the legend of Robin in the Hood.
America, at best, is a historic outpost of the Western tradition, a place set in motion for European Capitalism
and therefore, most Americans look inward within their historic experience to understand current social
problems. The first modern American was living on the edge of English Feudal society within the King’s
forest, “outside-the-law” or as an “outlaw” with just his longbow and his wits. You and I would immediately
envision a Clint Eastwood style American. A Westerner who was was escaping the memory of the American
Civil War, living by his guns and his wits as the first American living on the edge and outside of the law. If
we were asked to describe an outlaw, I’m sure we would all have a similar collective thought thanks to the
modern and “centrally controlled” media and entertainment industry. It is also worth noting that tax evasion,
treason, smuggling and dropping out are not unique to the American experience but rather ancient pastimes
intrinsically tied to a larger historic tradition.

Feudalism for better or worst was an international movement crossing many national borders within Western
Europe and beyond. The Feudal State among Kings, Lords, Barons and their enforcers, the Knights, all represented
a spirit of an age after the collapse of the Roman Empire. The center of economic gravity within the
Feudal State was the land and land ownership. Many modern thinkers think of internationalism as a coalition
among nation-states which has a brief and limited objective. This type of objective is more or less business
as nation-states or interstate business, be it war, embargo, treaty, etc. True Internationalism represents a spirit
of an age lasting many generations. Feudalism, in fact, is a spirit of an age. Constructed of a two class system
represented by landowners, usually but not always. Royalty who owned the land and the Serfs who worked
the lands and paid tribute for the privilege of toiling their lives away. As in any system, there are always the
outsiders. Those who choose freedom even at the risk of prison or death. In England, there arose such a man.
Choosing not to be a slave for the benefit of the Royals but rather living on the edge of society outside the
payment of tribute. Outside the starvation of medieval farming, making a living in the forest. The appearance
of the Independent Yeoman ( in modern terms the middle-class) was the greatest threat to the economic oppression
of the Feudal System.
Feudalism like many other “isms” requires enforcement by the State. The King declared the forest and all
products contained within it was taxable items. Anyone not paying tribute for the forest products would be
labeled an “outlaw”. Of course, the Sheriff along with his knights was tasked to enforce this tax or “ tribute”.
For the Yeoman, the turnaround technology was the English Long Bow and armor piercing arrows.
This weapon introduced the legend of Robin Hood, which was probably not a real person but rather a composite
of many outlaws ranging from the 1170s to 1215. Once the Yeoman demonstrated he could knock the
Knights out of the saddle. The enforcement mechanism couldn’t make a dent in reining in the “so-called”
outlaws, King John decided maybe a compromise was in order. Maybe a great charter, a grand plan of rights
hard won over many decades, A Magna Carta.”

( Continued )
The Magna Carta turned 800 years old on June the 15th of this year. One of the most important
clauses of the 63 clauses which still speaks to us in the modern era is:
No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed
or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against
him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgment of his equals or by the law of the
land.
To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice.
These individual rights were hard won over many generations through the force of arms and
bravery of the men behind the bow. A positive idea usually must endure many decades of
negativity before it can come to light. Unfortunately, conflict or a force of arms has to occur to
bring forward a positive idea.
Could modern America revert to a Feudal system or master/slave relationship? What if, the
next financial crisis hits the US again as in 2008. The private banking system decides to nationalize
all the debts to include mortgages, personal notes, state, county, and city liabilities.
Private property lines evaporate. Debtor’s private property turns into leased property. Very
much like property is not privately owned but leased in other countries. Isn’t property and possessions
the very thing the Magna Carta and our Constitution tried to address? What would be
the enforcement mechanism in such a state? Micro Chips? Or would the amount of your check
from the government be dependent on your participation in society? Could the new Longbow
be 3D printers? Technology is changing faster than the government can regulate. But could
America turn back to local authority system? The government may not be able to enforce its
will, much like it has abdicated its authority in Colorado over marijuana and the Cliven Bundy
Ranch incident. Technology may be the mechanism that ends the master/slave relationship. But
it may be the mechanism that makes it possible. It is up to “the Spirit of our Age” to decide.
