MAKING A CANOE AT THE MUSEUM
Visitors to the Frisco Native American Museum & Natural History Center
recently had a chance to discover how difficult it is to turn a twelve foot Cyprus log
into a canoe!At the recent Annual Journey Home, volunteers participated in a number
of activities that required team effort and a sense of adventure.
Long time museum supporters, Mitch Mayhew and Chief John Blackfeather,
led the canoe project using primitive tools that would have been available to natives.
They began by giving the log the outlines of a canoe, hacking at it to shape both ends.
Coals and pine cones were heaped on top, letting the simmering fire “scoop” out
the insides. Once a hollow area was created, volunteers began to scrape away the
charred wood using traditional tools. The process was slow and laborious but very
rewarding.
“It was an amazing weekend,” said Carl Bornfriend, executive director of the
museum. “We were surrounded by woods and the smells of the Cyprus log, working
with our hands and learning just how much skill it took to actually make a canoe.
And the best part is that countless others will have a chance to experience that same
thrill over the coming months.”
Chief John Blackfeather works on the canoe.

The canoe is the first phase in a long-range project to build a village on the
museum nature trail. Plans are in place to start a long house in April 2015. In the
meantime, visitors will have the opportunity to help with the project. “Scrapers” are
available for anyone who wants to work on the canoe.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday, Mondays by appointment
only. For more information, visit the web site at www.nativeamericanmuseum.org or

Nancy Lamb - Your Local DA office
In 1984 I left Wake Forest University School of Law behind and headed eastbound to my new position as the first female prosecutor in the First Judicial District.
Having grown up in the small mill town of Troy, N.C., and attending college in the mountains at Appalachian State, I had traded the rolling foothills of my hometown
for the flat, wetlands of Northeastern North Carolina: A place that would become my home for 30 years.
I chose an area of law that I knew would become my career, and I made Northeastern North Carolina my home. I met my husband in this beautiful place. All three of
my children were born right here at Albemarle Hospital. I have made a wonderful life in this area, and it all began with a telephone call from the District Attorney’s
office that brought me here.
I knew that I wanted to make a difference, and I knew that would be accomplished in the office of the District Attorney. The purpose of the District Attorney’s office is
to help those who have been criminally wronged. Cases are investigated by law enforcement and depending on the elements of the case, which are decided by our NC
General Statutes, charges may be brought. If only cases were as quickly brought to justice as “Law & Order” or “CSI”, or evidence were so easily obtained. The truth
is that it takes time to get our evidence processed. For instance, in a Possession With Intent to Sell and Deliver Schedule II, which is cocaine, the State must prove that
the powdery substance confiscated is, in fact, cocaine. It must be sent to the state lab where it could sit for months. Without the state lab attesting to the fact that the
evidence is indeed cocaine, a clever defense attorney or public defender could plant the seed of doubt alleging that the white substance was not cocaine but parmesan
cheese! Yes, the cheese defense has been used before! If one juror believes that the defendant could have been selling parmesan cheese, then the entire case is lost. The
State has the burden of proof to show without a reasonable doubt that the case brought before 12 jurors is a crime, based on the laws of the State of North Carolina.
There are many agencies that make up the criminal justice system, from the law enforcement officers who investigate the crime to the prosecutors who determine how
the case should proceed and if there is substantial evidence to charge the individual. It often takes time to bring a case to trial. The most important factor to remember
is to seek the truth, not race against the clock simply to clear a calendar. The late Frank Parrish often said that he would rather see a guilty man go free than put an
innocent man in prison. The District Attorney’s office holds the power to change the lives of many with one stroke of the pen. It is always best to err on the side of
caution when dealing with the lives of human beings.
The American Justice system is not always perfect, but it is by far the best system in the world. Our Constitution has provided us with a strong foundation that we can
build on and improve. If we all strive to follow the law, we will make this a great system that works for every citizen.
Cancer Survivors must be very diligent in what they consume
Cancer survivors must be very diligent in what they consume. So, in this article I’ll discuss “essential nutrients”. Essential Nutrients include: Water, Carbohydrates,
Protein, Lipids, Minerals, and Vitamins.
-Water/Hydration is necessary for all life, but is particularly important to cancer survivors. Cancer survivors should always include anti-oxidant’s in their hydration
regimen. Fluid intake should consist of at least 64ozs. I like green tea, pomegranate juice, red wine, and vegetable juice with high potassium content. I use a digital
scale to weigh myself before sleep and in the morning. I use the difference between the two, to determine how much to rehydrate. Proper hydration is the key to everything
-Carbohydrates should be the bulk of your diet, and current scientific studies suggest that some components in cruciferous carbohydrates could protect cells from
DNA damage, inactivate carcinogens, promote anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory immune system responses.
-Proteins are in the area that requires diligence. Protein should be limited to less than 15% per day, and the bulk of that should not include antibiotics. In my last article
(May 2013) we touched on the avoidance of antibiotics. Antibiotics can compromise the immune system so you might want to limit your consumption of proteins
where they may occur (red meat, poultry).Oily fish such as tuna, salmon, are excellent alternatives as they are a powerful source of the polyunsaturated lipid, omega 3.
-Lipids (fats, oils) together with carbohydrates, and proteins are the main constituents of plant and animal cells. Fats should be primarily polyunsaturated or monounsaturated.
The quality of your fat intake has a direct impact on your quality of life.
-Minerals are essential for carrying out various body functions including, promoting health and growth, blood circulation, and fluid regulation, among a plethora of
other things. Minerals are classified into two categories, major minerals and trace minerals.
-Vitamins facilitate the chemical reactions that produce among other things, skin, bone, and muscle. For the most part, vitamins are obtained from food, but a few are
obtained from other sources. For example, Vitamin D is synthesized by the sun.
The crux of this article is to emphasize the need to consume the highest quality essential elements to assure cancer survival and the highest possible quality of life. A
cancer survivor must build their diet around their needs . The Ingredient statements and nutrition facts on packaged foods should be required reading.

Orthodox Christianity
Grief, and the land of the living (Part2)
Archimandrite Zacharias speaks to this matter:
“We remember the prophet Isaiah who, having seen the glory of God,
was called to repentance…. The Lord disclosed to His Prophet the
extreme tension that exists between the fallen world and the ‘land of
the living’ (Isa. 38:11, 53:8), and the great abyss which separates the
two. From then on, Isaiah saw the light of this world as darkness
compared to the light of the spiritual world which had been revealed
to him, and he mourned within himself: ‘O wretched man that I am.’ ”
It is only this overwhelming dynamic tension, this unendurable stress, the existential grief of the
catastrophic personal and communal loss, that has the potential to rip us from our passionate attachment
to created things and to violently propel us to noetic change, to ontological awakening, to spiritual rebirth,
to metanoia: “The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.” (Matt.
11:12.) Any understanding of Christianity that lacks this vision as a central and essential pillar and goal,
must be a crippled and incomplete version of the ancient and whole Faith.
There is no greater tragedy than that of the acutely perceptive and famished soul who can find
no hope that the blessed state is in some way possible for us. And in our contemporary spiritually dense
and materialistic zeitgeist, one sees this condition far too often. Such a soul must finally come to rest in
despair, or in nihilist madness.
In contradistinction, the ancient and Orthodox Christianity has taught since the first century (and,
indeed, in continuity with the answer of Abraham, “Here I am,” and in continuity with Adam’s first
breath) that the blessed state is indeed available to us, inherent in us, incumbent upon us; and further, that
it is now our obligation to struggle to progress toward it; and that this state is, in fact, what the saints,
both past and contemporary, through their heroic surrender to the Divine Will, have realized.

A Community Introduction: Music on the Outer Banks
By Derek Baker
On any given day throughout the summer, on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, salt is not the only thing in the air. There is something more, something
that affects all of the senses: Music.
The Outer Banks music scene is an eclectic mixture of people, ideas and sounds. Ranging from acoustic singer-songwriter and blues, to Folk and Rock,
the music “scene” on the Outer Banks provides something for everyone. The Outer Banks is also the location of a few well-put-together festivals,
including a relatively new festival that has made waves in the local and regional community: The Mustang Music Festival. Other festivals include The
Duck Jazz Festival, Shallowbag Bay Beach Music Festival, and The Outer Banks Bluegrass Island Festival. Along with these festivals, Roanoke Island
Festival Park, in Manteo, also hosts a summer-long music series, The Brew-Thru Summer Concert Series, which brings national and regional acts to the
Outer Banks.
Local music has become somewhat of a tradition on the Outer Banks, with major venues such as Kelly’s, Port O’ Call, The Outer Banks Brewing
Station, The Pit, as well as others, hosting band nights. Although many of these venues bring in regional and national acts, they stay true to their
roots by hosting local bands and musicians throughout the year. Some smaller venues include Art’s Place, Longboard’s Bar and Grill and Trio. These
are only a few of the venues that host local music, with over thirty other bars, restaurants and pubs that contribute their spaces to live music.
Also among the venues the support and cultivate local music is the Outer Banks Jubilee. Opening its doors last year, the Jubilee hosts its own
variety shows. These variety shows combine music from all genres and ages. This venue has begun hosting an actual “Local Band Night.” Local Band
Night, in which local artists are invited to perform, gives musicians an outlet to creatively contribute with one-another and to gain publicity by working
together with the theater to promote local music. The next Local Band Night is scheduled for the seventh of June.
There is something for everyone in the Outer Banks Music Scene. For those who like classic rock, the bands High Tide and Betty on Patrol
provide a taste of days gone by with their powerhouse female front-women. Other full bands that have made an impression on the local music scene
include: Jonny Waters and Company, TR3, The Zach Mexico Band, as well as countless others. For those with a taste for acoustic and solo music, a
multitude of acts play on a regular basis at many of the venues around the Outer Banks. A few of these musicians include Graham Outten, Phil Watson,
Scott Franson, Jeremy Russell and Laura Martier. These are only a few artists of note, joining numerous other acts in the local musical community. To
find out more about these artists, and other artists that supply their talent to the Outer Banks, you can visit www.outerabankslivemusic.com.
This article is an introduction of sorts. Over the next few months, the Albemarle Tradewinds will be publishing a “local musician’s profile,” in
which a band, or two, will be interviewed and written about; the purpose of this is to promote the local music scene, its members, and the very make-up
of what creates such a powerful and entrancing community of artists. It is the hope of this writer to make artist profiles a regular contribution to this
magazine, to spotlight talent and to introduce the community to the musicians that may not otherwise be know. Included in this article series will be
coverage of the festivals listed herein, as well as other events that cultivate art and music on the Outer Banks. If you are interested in being profiled, or
have events that you would like to be publicized, please feel free to contact Derek Baker, at dabaker782@gmail.com.

Darrell’s 2 Comes To Nags Head
A New Pearl On The Beach
By Rosie Hawthorne
Kitchensaremonkeybusiness.com
The Hawthornes are happy campers. One of our favorite restaurants, the iconic Darrell’sHYPERLINK “http://www.darrellsseafood.com/” Restaurant
in Manteo, has opened a second establishment on the beach in the Outer Banks Mall, Darrell’s 2. Whenever I need my “fried fix,” I go to
Darrell’s. I go to Darrell’s for their fried oysters. Period. When it comes to fried oysters, I don’t think Darrell’s has been outdone. I’m happy to say
I won’t need to travel as far as Manteo any more. I can now get my fix on the beach!
Darrell’s 2, like its predecessor, is a family restaurant with family prices featuring terrific seafood at its freshest, Carolina-style BBQ, and southern
country favorites. The original Darrell’s in Manteo opened in 1960 as the Polar Bear Drive In, founded by Darrell and Dora Daniels. In 1972, son
Allen Daniels and wife Lorna joined the business, expanding the restaurant, and renaming it Darrell’s Seafood Restaurant. Now, a third generation
Daniels, Tanner, who has managed D #1 for the past ten years, has opened Darrell’s 2 in the Outer Banks Mall on the north side, across from the new
Fresh Market. Darrell’s 2 seats 60 and is open from 11am – 9pm, seven days a week.
Rosie, Mr. Hawthorne, and Middle Hawthorne checked out Darrell’s 2 recently. Whenever I’ve been to Darrells 1 in Manteo, the service has always
been friendly, efficient, and quick. It doesn’t matter if the restaurant is packed. The service is always spot on. I noticed Darrell’s 2 had some of the
same waitresses I recognized from D #1. Service at D #2 was superb also.
Some cases in point:
#1 I ordered my usual unsweetened iced tea with fivepiecesoflemonplease and the waitress stopped, looked at me, and said, “I know you. I’ve
waited on you before.” It’s so nice to be greeted and acknowledged, even if it is a dubious recognition at best. When our waitress brought our drinks,
along with my fivepiecesoflemon, she also brought a little container with more lemon. She knows I’ll want a refill. Smart gal. She’s thinking
ahead!
#2 I ordered the fried oyster appetizer, not the lunch dish, along with fries and cole slaw. Our attentive, friendly, and accommodating waitress,
Heather, came back to suggest I order the lunch dish, which comes with two sides… because it cost less. It was a better deal. Thank you, Heather.
It’s little details like these which make me really like a restaurant, appreciate their service, and recommend it to others - details besides terrific food.
When I ordered my oysters, I asked for lightly fried. Heather politely informed me that all their seafood is lightly battered and lightly fried.
When I ordered my fries, I asked for extra crispy. I received some of the best fries one could wish for – thin and skinny, brown and crisp. Two
slightly sweet little hush puppies and a light, refreshing coleslaw rounded out the dish. I asked for their cocktail and tartar sauces and was rewarded
with a cocktail sauce that actually boasted horseradish. Too many places go slack on the horseradish. I like cocktail sauce with a kick.
Middle Hawthorne ordered the chicken strips with hickory smoked BBQ, mashed potatoes and gravy, and green beans. I was barely able to shoot off
a picture of it and when I asked him how everything was (since I am not allowed to touch, taste, breathe, or hover over any of his food), he grunted
and gave it a thumbs up. This is a good sign.
On our way out, I noticed a chalkboard with the dessert specials on it – key lime pie, coconut cake, 14-layer chocolate cake, among other items, enticed.
There is also a large party carryout menu, family dinners, and party packages to go.
I have several criteria for judging a restaurant – taste being number one, of course. And both Darrells hit the mark on that.
But bottom line? If I can get a pearl, it’s a winner.
Welcome to the beach, Darrell’s 2!
Please visit with Rosie at Kitchensaremonkeybusiness.com. It’s a Southern front porch kind of visit – comfortable rocking chair, easy and relaxing,
with lots of good food, gardens, and furry babies.

Dear Dr. Crime: I don’t want to
see our school have the violence
that seems to be happening in
schools all over America. What
can I as a parent do to help prevent
violence in our local schools?
Frightened parent.
They’re treasure hunters, all right.
Milton and Angel Sawyer, who own Treasure Hunter at 112 North
Road Street in downtown Elizabeth City, have a veritable treasure
trove of items from generations near and far for sale in their 3,500
square foot storefront. Collectibles like antique furniture, vintage
pyrex and glassware, lamps, books, bicycles, original artwork,
toys, steamer trunks and suitcases, musical instruments and jewelry
are artfully arranged throughout the building.
The jewelry display is of particular significance - quite a bit of the
Sawyers’ business is in buying gold and silver of all kinds.
“We pay more than anyone else in Elizabeth City,” said Milton, an
Elizabeth City native. “We are honest and fair.”
Milton prides himself on providing fair prices to both his buyers
and sellers.
“I’ve always had the philosophy of buying things reasonably and
selling things reasonably.”
This philosophy has allowed a quick turnover in the store, always
bringing in more new items.
“What this store has to offer is a great variety of things not being
found in antique stores anymore,” Milton said.
The unique displays and interesting items draw customers from all
over the country to Treasure Hunter, which has been in its present
location for the past five years.
“All my life, if I liked something or thought it was cool, other
people did, too,” Milton said.

Dear Parent: Of course you are
concerned. The first thing you
should do is to see what the experts
advise. The US Department
of Education, at the direction of
the President, issued a report by
many experts on school violence.
That was over a decade ago but
the advice is still good. Go to the
internet https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/172854.pdf
That report will give you ideas of
topics to discuss with your school
officials. If they have not read it,
tell them about it. Dr. Crime.
Do you have a crime and delinquency
related question? Write to Dr. Crime
at professorcrime@gmail.com.
Also, if your child is a “youthful offender”
Dr. Crime can offer suggestions
on how to work with the criminal
justice system. For more information

Andy Womble - Your Local DA office
Recently, the North Carolina House of Representatives voted on legislation which would raise the jurisdictional age of juveniles from 16 years of age to
18 years of age. House Bill 725, which passed by a vote of 77 for to 39 against, still must pass through the North Carolina Senate and be signed by the
Governor before it becomes law. The effective date of this legislation is July 1, 2019. As your District Attorney, I would like to take this opportunity to
briefly highlight the processes of juvenile court in North Carolina.
North Carolina juvenile courts handle cases in which juveniles are accused of acts that would be crimes if committed by adults. Juveniles who are accused
of committing criminal offenses are brought to court through a process which is quite different than adult criminal court. First, a juvenile, and their
parents or guardians, are served with a petition, rather than a criminal warrant. The petition is the charging instrument in juvenile court and it sets forth
the offense the juvenile has allegedly committed.
Once in court, the next step is an adjudication proceeding. The adjudication proceeding constitutes the “trial” of the matter or, alternatively, the juvenile
can “admit” the veracity of the petition. If the allegations in the petition are proven to the court or if the juvenile admits the allegations, the juvenile is
determined to be delinquent for the purpose of the courts’ jurisdiction. A finding of delinquency in juvenile court is akin to a finding of guilt in adult
criminal court.
The second phase of the process is the disposition. The dispositional phase is the sentencing phase and consists of a determination by the court of what
resources may be available to the juvenile and his/her parents. The disposition may include confinement in a juvenile detention when appropriate.
Currently in North Carolina, a person is considered an adult for the purposes of criminal prosecution when they reach the age of sixteen. Consequently,
a person under the age of sixteen is in the jurisdiction of the juvenile courts. The pertinent determination is the age of the accused on the date when the
criminal offense allegedly occurred.
In forty states, the maximum age of juvenile court jurisdiction is 17 years of age. Eight states draw the juvenile/adult line at 16 years of age and two
states set it at 15 years of age. In these two states, North Carolina and New York, 16- and 17-year olds are automatically tried in the adult system.
However, all states have transfer laws that allow or require young offenders to be prosecuted as adults for more serious offenses, regardless of their age.
Four forms of transfer laws are as follows:
Statutory Exclusion - State law excludes some classes of cases involving juvenile age offenders from juvenile court, granting adult criminal court exclusive
jurisdiction over some types of offenses. Murder and serious violent felony cases are most commonly “excluded” from juvenile court.
Judicially Controlled Transfer - All cases against juveniles beginning in juvenile court and not concluded by age 18 must be transferred by the juvenile
court to the adult court.
Prosecutorial Discretion Transfer - Some categories of cases have both juvenile and criminal jurisdiction, so prosecutors may choose to file in either the
juvenile or adult court. The choice is considered to be within the prosecutor’s executive discretion.
“Once and adult, always an adult” Transfer - The law requires prosecution in the adult court of any juvenile who has been criminally prosecuted in the
past, usually regardless of whether the current offense is serious or not.
The impact of House Bill 725 on the judicial system remains up for debate. Once fully
implemented, the filings in juvenile courts statewide are expected to increase by roughly
30,000 cases. Additionally, juvenile petitions take longer to resolve than adult criminal
matters and generally require multiple court appearances to work through the issues and
find adequate resources.
As your District Attorney, I will continue to monitor this potential landmark change.
In this climate of tightened budgets and the increased expectation to do more with less,
it is vitally important we have a strategic plan to accomplish our main purposes of enforcing
the laws and bringing justice for victims.
