Local Realtor & Mold Remediator Help Family Enjoy<br />
Their Home Instead of Sacrificing their Health<br />
by Laura Bush Jenkins<br />
“The house was exactly what the buyer wanted,” recalls<br />
realtor Charlie Newsome, reflecting back to a track-stopping<br />
encounter a few year ago.<br />
The three-story, furnished waterfront home in a prominent<br />
Currituck community was a dream come true,<br />
except for one major obstacle. The owner was unable to<br />
sell the house because everything was covered in mold.<br />
“It smelled like a fruit stand, and a few leaks caused<br />
additional heartburn.”<br />
The buyers persisted, however, and soon the house was<br />
under contract. They were willing to find a solution, but<br />
Newsome was skeptical.<br />
“I knew Harry [Cannon, of Dwelling Management<br />
Solutions] prior to this, but was not a believer in mold<br />
remediation,” he stated.<br />
an independent tester, who verified and quantified a<br />
significant presence of penicillium. The team at Dwelling<br />
Management Solutions addressed the issue promptly<br />
and removed it before closing.<br />
“I don’t know how Dwelling Management Solutions salvaged<br />
everything,” said Newsome. “It was a big place,<br />
with an elevator. However, the amount spent on remediation<br />
was nothing compared to the big picture.”<br />
Dwelling Management Solutions specializes in residential<br />
and commercial mold removal and is a member<br />
of the Indoor Air Quality Association. It utilizes only<br />
professional-grade Mold Defender products specifically<br />
formulated for remediation.<br />
Owner Harry Cannon is a patent holder with 20 years<br />
experience educating and protecting the public from the<br />
damaging effects of mold in our area.<br />
“Local realtors are talking about the results Dwelling<br />
Management Solutions is creating as they safely eliminate<br />
mold from buildings. “<br />

Like many, Newsome thought spraying affected areas<br />
with bleach would provide a solution. However, unknown<br />
to most, bleach does not kill or remove mold. It’s<br />
simply masks the discoloration (see epa.gov/mold.)<br />
What saved the day was collecting measurements from<br />

Health and Nutrition Strategies For<br />
Cancer Survivors and Everybody Else<br />
WHAT’S IN YOUR DIET?<br />
My life’s mission and passion is about mitigating<br />
cancer, and its effects. When I hear terms like, “I’m<br />
fighting cancer”, and I’m cancer-free, I’ve wondered what<br />
it means? A few years ago, when I facilitated a “Man to<br />
Man” prostate cancer support group we often discussed<br />
those subjects to develop strategy’s.. It was always<br />
inconclusive. Here’s my take.<br />
Fifteen years ago when I was diagnosed, my cancer<br />
mentor and brother Mel, helped me to understand that<br />
the best strategy to fight cancer was NOT to cede your<br />
control of your health. The group agreed and added that<br />
your medical advisers or team are your hirees..You’re<br />
buying their services, they’re providing you with their<br />
expertise and options, You are the decider.<br />
The support group also thought it imperative to have<br />
a Comprehensive Treatment Center’s opinion as part<br />
of your decision making process, either as your primary<br />
source of information, or for a second opinion. Comprehensive<br />
cancer treatment centers (there are 70 in the<br />
U.S.). They are the best providers to determine the most<br />
effective strategy for you. That might be radiation, chemical,<br />
hormonal, immune or watch and wait observation,<br />
their opinion will inform your local provider.<br />
I chose John’s Hopkins (Sidney Kimmel Clinic) for my<br />
cancer team, because of their propensity toward a<br />
dietary-link based strategy, and their easy commute. I<br />
tested their dietary assertion by participating in a phase<br />
one and two clinical trial testing muscadine grape skin<br />
capsules. It controlled my cancer for over two years.<br />
I’m convinced. Cancer cells are tricky, their strategy is<br />
to mutate and adjust. Your challenge is to counter that<br />
adjustment with your own adjustment. My strategy to defeat<br />
their adjustment is by using food.. To me that means<br />
strengthening your immune system. Strengthening your<br />
immune system means strengthening your diet.<br />

As far as ‘the term “cancer-free”, I’ve never been an<br />
advocate or understood how the term got into use. It’s a<br />
misnomer. A surgeon might say he removed a lesion or<br />
tumor and announce “I got it all”.<br />
Cancer cells are microscopic. So you got microscopic<br />
maverick cells in your bloodstream looking for weaknesses<br />
and ways to evade your immune system. In our toxic,<br />
carcinogen laden environment, everyone has cancer cells<br />
at some level. Nobody is cancer free,it’s just non-detectable.<br />
Next month I’ll be 80 years, and I’ll be developing strategies<br />
for the next 3 years. I’m beginning an adventure<br />
in a 62 and older community (Overture,VB) . My new<br />
neighborhood provides enough food options to optimize<br />
my diet, to levels I’ve never approached. I have access to<br />
products like impossible (vegan) burgers, and nondairy<br />
cheese. I’m thinking about alternating a modified Mediterranean<br />
with a vegetarian diet, and monitor my blood<br />
work which I do quarterly. Medicare and a supplement<br />
will cover the cost.<br />
<strong>Final</strong>ly, I thought I should recognize “The Green Bronx<br />
Machine” as a top ten Health and Wellness program in<br />
the country. These are inner city kids growing food and<br />
exporting their expertise all over the world.<br />
Food, must be focused on to mitigate the effects of our<br />
increasingly polluted environment.<br />
Before we get into that, I wanted to give a shout out to my<br />
cancer mentor, and brother Mel who helped me formulate<br />
strategies and perspectives to manage my cancer. .<br />
As far as “cancer free” is concerned, I’ve never been an<br />
advocate or understood the terminology.<br />

Watercress -The Nose Twister<br />
by: Coy Domecq<br />
The watercress (Nasturtium officinale) is found throughout<br />
the United States growing in shallow moving fresh<br />
water. The aquatic watercress was introduced to the<br />
US from Europe and Asia. Before we get too far, please<br />
do not be misled by the genus category of this plant<br />
with the land-based flower by the same common name<br />
nasturtium. The flower was named after the aquatic plant<br />
because of the similarity in botanical oils both plants<br />
produce.<br />
Watercress has the distinction of being one of the oldest<br />
known leaf vegetables consumed by humans. It was a<br />
staple food for Roman soldiers and Hippocrates, known<br />
as the father of medicine, used the plant to treat patients<br />
for a range of medical conditions.<br />
“Midway have it your way with prestige,<br />
trustworthy repair from bumper to bumper."<br />
“We can do any Auto Repair”<br />
$54.95 for a synthetic oil change<br />
$34.95 for a regular oil change<br />
The nutritional benefits of watercress are significant and<br />
many. It is a member of the cruciferous family that enjoys<br />
such better-known healthful members as cabbage, broccoli<br />
and kale. One cup of watercress contains more than<br />
one hundred percent of the USRDA of vitamin K. The<br />
plant is superior to spinach for dietary iron it provides. It is<br />
noteworthy for the levels of vitamins A and C it contains,<br />
the beneficial effect of lowering blood pressure, and it<br />
demonstrates a positive role of minimizing the side effects<br />
of cancer treatments.<br />
Uncooked watercress has a distinct peppery taste that<br />
adds culinary interest to salads and soups as a garnish.<br />
Roughly translated, nasturtium means “nose twister”. It<br />
once enjoyed great favor as part of the working person’s<br />
diet and then migrated to the tea party crowd in the form<br />
of watercress sandwiches. When cooked, it is a versatile<br />
ingredient that is featured in soup, pesto, pizza, deviled<br />
eggs, and as a lettuce substitute in BLTs or your favorite<br />
wrap.<br />
“Desperation is the raw<br />
material of drastic change.<br />
Only those who can leave<br />
behind everything they<br />
have ever believed in can<br />
hope to escape. ”<br />

JIM KAIGHN INSURANCE AGENCY- HOME OF THE “INSURANCE DOCTOR”<br />
Home Owners Insurance- TERMINOLOGY- Part two<br />
Last month, I wrote on the wording in Home owners policys<br />
so folks could understand what they are paying for and what<br />
their coverage means in lay mans language.. This month I am<br />
focusing on Parts B,C,D,E, and F..As I stated last month, Part<br />
A is on the dwelling itself.. Now part B is on all buildings NOT<br />
ATTACHED to the house.. be it a work shed, garage or any<br />
kind off outbuilding.. ALL POLICIES gives you 10% of the value<br />
of your home in part A as coverage for thisdd type of building..<br />
So if your house is valued at $ 200,000 on part A, those out<br />
buildings are covered dup to $20,000 loss.<br />
Now, if your building is valued more than that, you can ask<br />
your agent to increase the coverage, but it will costs a little<br />
more.. Now Part C is PERSONAL PROPERTY.. This is all your<br />
furniture, jewelry, sporting equipment, clothes.. anything you<br />
own or are paying for.. in your house, the out buildings, in our<br />
car, OR what you have loaned out to someone even it is THEIR<br />
HOUSE!! The company automatically gives you 50% coverage<br />
for the value of this property ( IT IS UP TO YOU TO PROVE<br />
THE VALUE, SO KEEP RECEIPTS OF ALL MAJOR BUYS<br />
AND TAKE PICTURES OFF ALL ITEMS AND RECORD THE<br />
SERIAL NUMBERS OF ALL ITEMS) . If you do not, you will not<br />
get value you wish!! Also, with the 50% plan they give you, the<br />
company will take off depreciation, so if a TV cost you $ 3000<br />
five years ago, yu may only get $1000 or so as pay back.. In order<br />
to get FULL VALUE you must increase the value from 50 %<br />
to 70%, which is called REPLACEMENT COSTS.. talk to your<br />
agent for more info or call me..Next is PART D, or LOSS OF<br />
USE.. Say you have a fire in the bedroom and have to spend<br />
3 weeks in a motel to sleep, this part gives you up to 20% of<br />
Part A, for money to pay for the rental.. also, if your kitchen is<br />
destroyed and you have to eat at Hardee’s or Circle Restaurant,<br />
keep your receipts, and you can get reimbursed for this..This<br />
ends SECTION ONE OF ALL HOMEOWNERS POLICIES..<br />
Section 2, I will cover next month in August..As usual, you may<br />
contact me for this or other insurance issues.. Call me at 252<br />
202 5983 or 252 335 5983 or e-mail me at INSDR@ROAD-<br />
RUNNER.COM..Tip of the month.. Do not get to wrapped up in<br />
politics right now and do not believe all the blustering you hear<br />
from all the candidates, this is where all the hot air is coming<br />
from now from Washington D.C. Just relax, there is plenty of<br />
time to get your tickets to leave for Canada or Mars or Outer<br />
Mongolia in the coming 16 months.. TATA,<br />

f you are here vacationing on the Outer Banks and you<br />
need to have a day trip away from the ocean, then consider<br />
a trip to Wanchese. Just drive to Wanchese and look for the<br />
sign that reads Wanchese Seafood Industrial Park. Once in the<br />
park, you will be at the hub of the seafood and boat building<br />
industry. You will pass by Bayliss Boatworks where some of the<br />
finest sportfishing boats are built by legendary fishing Captain<br />
John Bayliss. Next is O’Neals Seafood where, if you are here<br />
at lunchtime, you can grab an excellent seafood lunch and also<br />
buy some fresh North Carolina seafood to take back to cook<br />
at your cottage. O’Neals is a popular locals’ spot as well as<br />
for those visiting our area. The specials of the day are sure to<br />
satisfy your seafood craving and are made with fresh locally<br />
caught seafood..<br />
When you are done there, then continue around the park and<br />
when you make the right turn you will see the Outer Banks<br />
Marina, “Home of Wicked Tuna Outer Banks”. If you are here<br />
in the late afternoon, there are many things to do at the OBX<br />
Marina. First you can watch as the boats come in from a day<br />
on the ocean and will be unloading their catches on the dock.<br />
You can watch as the Doghouse from Wicked Tuna backs in<br />
and meet Captain Britton Shackelford. If you like Wicked Tuna,<br />
you can head over to the OBX Marina Ship Store and get an<br />
official OBX Marina Wicked Tuna T-Shirt. While you are in the<br />
Ship Store, you can also check for boat availability and plan a<br />
charter fishing trip while you are here visiting.<br />
“Hustlers of the world, there is one<br />
mark you cannot beat: the mark inside.”<br />
― William S. Burroughs<br />
For the adult vacationer, you can visit the Tiki Bar located dockside<br />
and grab a cold one and mix with the locals at this popular<br />
watering hole. If you pick the right evening the bar also has live<br />
music. Located beside the Tiki Hut is the Sooey’s BBQ Food<br />
Trailer where you can get some BBQ to compliment your cold<br />
beer. For those looking for a family trip, OBX Marina now has<br />
Paradise Dolphin Cruises on the Kokomo. If you want to take<br />
this Dolphin cruise, then make sure you call ahead and make<br />
a reservation because cruises sell out fast during the summer.<br />
As you can see, there is a lot happening at the OBX Marina. If<br />
you do happen to book a trip with one of the many experienced<br />
captains who are located at OBX Marina, the marina also has a<br />
fish cleaning service where they will clean and bag your catch<br />
of the day. Then you can take it back to your cottage to eat or<br />
take it back home with you.<br />
Who knows? While you are visiting, you may even see me<br />
when I am returning to OBX Marina after a day on the ocean!<br />
This is where I dock my boat “The Sea Donkey.” If you see me,<br />
stop by and say hi. Enjoy your stay on the Outer Banks!<br />

Dear Dr. Crime<br />
Dr. Crime is a pseudonym for a social scientist holding<br />
a Ph.D. degree in sociology and in criminology. He<br />
has worked in all major parts of the criminal justice<br />
system. Drop him a note at the website www.keepkidshome.net<br />
If you or your child is in trouble, he<br />
may be able to help, give him a call (2523390000) or<br />
E-mail at<br />
reedadams@yahoo.com<br />
Dear Dr. Crime: You said suicide by kids was bad. Is it<br />
really? What are the numbers?<br />
Dear Reader. The CDC’s National Center for Health<br />
Statistics reports a 33% increase since 1999. That<br />
shows the highest age-adjusted suicide rate recorded in<br />
the U.S. since 1942. And kid suicide horrifies me most.<br />
It is increasing more rapidly among boys and girls ages<br />
10 to 14 than in any other age group. Research reported<br />
in the Journal of the American Medical Association<br />
indicated kids killing themselves is at the highest point<br />
since at least 2000. See the June issue of the JAMA.<br />
The researchers indicate that high rates of drug abuse<br />
and overdose, and misuse of social media may be tied<br />
to rising suicide rates. If you need to act about possible<br />
suicide call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at<br />
1-800-273-8255 or text HOME to 741741 to reach the<br />
Crisis Text Line.<br />
Dear Dr. Crime: What do we do to end the opioid crisis?<br />
Disturbed voter.<br />
Dear Voter: Tell your state and federal officials to make<br />
it more of a priority. The Monitor on Psychology reports<br />
that in 2017 our country was home to 1.7 million opioids<br />
disorder victims and 6 times as many died from opioids<br />
as in 1999. It also reports that a relatively new criminological<br />
treatment tool, the “Drug Courts” are proving to<br />
be very effective by a focus on treatments as well as incarceration.<br />
We now have over 3,000 drug courts. We<br />
also have “Mental Health Courts” using mental health<br />
services as part of sentencing.<br />
Dear Dr. Crime: What agencies can help me develop an<br />
anti-bullying program at our local high school? I don’t<br />
know where to turn. Politically Active Citizen.<br />
Dear PAC: GOOD for you ! Encourage others to participate<br />
in local government as you are doing. For help<br />
with your planning go to the National Association of Forensic<br />
Counselors. They have developed “tool kits” for<br />
bullying and have an app for you. See that really great<br />
association at nafc@forensiccounselor.org. See also<br />
their upcoming meeting on the motivation of survivors of<br />
human trafficking.<br />
Dear Dr. Crime: What can we do to help our FireFighters?<br />
I think they don’t get the support and attention they<br />
deserve. HotPants<br />
Dear HotPants: You are right on target. We must do<br />
more for our first responders. How about a transfer<br />
of all politicians and media personnel salaries to the<br />
FireFighters? No, I guess that would not work, but<br />
there is much we can do beyond what is now the typical<br />
program. See the programs Dr. Jana Tran, a psychologist<br />
with the Houston Fire Department, has going. Her<br />
research shows that FireFighters can develop depression<br />
and PTSD, leading to suicide. She has a video,<br />
Operation Lifeline, that is an important part of preparing<br />
them for the stress of their work. Go for it!! See the<br />
June issue of Monitor on Psychology.<br />
Dear Dr. Crime: Can we do anything to get girls out of<br />
the sex business? I think the beginning of the Artificial<br />
Intelligence Dolls is one way. Regretful Customer<br />
Dear RC: The vast majority of working girls enter the<br />
profession because they have few economic options.<br />
Also, they generally do not live in a social system that<br />
supports them. The NoVo Foundation is working on<br />
this problem. Recently a number of news sources ran<br />
stories about the development of robots that pass for<br />
humans. The development of artificial intelligence in<br />
multiple forms should be watched, as it has many implications<br />
for science and humanity.<br />
Dear Dr. Crime: Kids today cannot delay gratification of<br />
any sort. That is the reason for the increased crime rate.<br />
Old Fashioned Father.<br />
Dear OFF : I disagree. A study in Developmental Psychology<br />
and in Science News found that white, middle<br />
class kids empirically tested for patience showed a powerful<br />
increase since 2000. The researchers contributed<br />
the increase in delaying gratification to increases in abilities<br />
to think abstractly, pay attention, plan and prioritize.<br />
We owe a massive debt to the pre-school teachers. This<br />
is another example of the importance of early education.<br />
“I don’t care if people hate my guts; I<br />
assume most of them do. The important<br />
question is whether they are in a<br />
position to do anything about it.”<br />

Chowanoke History<br />
by Duvonya Chavis<br />
After the Chowanoke Reservation was gone, tribal members began<br />
to disperse and establish smaller communities within the local<br />
area. These “mini” communities were distinct and were recognized<br />
as unique by those who lived outside of the community. The Indians<br />
who lived in these communities could no longer consider themselves<br />
a tribe in the same sense that we know today, but continued<br />
to function as tribal communities had in the past with a semblance of<br />
self-government, both politically and socially. Many of these communities<br />
established a school and church within their own community or<br />
attended one that was nearby in a similar community. In reality, these<br />
“unique” communities were the norm and a continuance of that which<br />
had always existed prior to colonization. This time however, they had<br />
adapted to a modern lifestyle and society. Longhouses no longer existed<br />
and communal living had ceased.<br />
As Indian customs assimilated into the local culture, Europeans adopted<br />
many survival practices they had learned from the Chowanoke.<br />
Fishing technique, local farming, and food recipes were taught. In turn,<br />
housing and a European clothing style were adopted by the Chowanoke.<br />
However, the Indians who lived in these communities did not<br />
dismantle their social culture and individuality. Even today, a semblance<br />
of their past remains. While local society recognized Chowanoke<br />
as different, overall they have had a difficult time accepting them<br />
as Indian, without “teepees” and regalia. Within the northeastern North<br />
Carolina environment, there are few exceptions where Indians were<br />
racially designated as Indian in the early 1900’s. This was unfortunate<br />
because it undermined the existence of a culture that provided a<br />
foundation for the society that exists today. Yet, even in the aftermath<br />
of a racially charged environment against American Indians, there still<br />
exists core communities that have retained their Chowanoke identity.<br />
Duvonya, a Chowanoke<br />
descendant, is President of<br />
Roanoke-Chowan Native<br />
American Association, a<br />
non-profit organization whose<br />
mission is to help American<br />
Indians in Northeastern NC<br />
and Southeastern VA. In<br />
partnership with another<br />
Chowanoke descendant, she<br />
is currently developing the<br />
historic Chowanoke Reservation<br />
in Gates County for<br />
Tribal descendants to hold<br />
cultural events.<br />

Paddling Pleasures<br />
by Claude Milot<br />
The <strong>Albemarle</strong> Sound is a paradise for boaters. The<br />
sails and masts of sloops, cutters, yawls, and ketches<br />
can be seen throughout the year as sailors eagerly<br />
explore the vast expanse of the Sound or compete in<br />
weekly races and annual regattas. Powerboats of all<br />
sizes and shapes also make their way to the towns<br />
along the Sound to discover the many riches they have<br />
to offer.<br />
But these waters make another kind of discovery possible.<br />
Not so much the open waters of the Sound, but the<br />
rivers that feed it and the many creeks that can only be<br />
explored with small boats.<br />
One group of boaters dedicated to the exploration of<br />
the area’s creeks and ponds are the kayakers of <strong>Albemarle</strong><br />
Plantation’s Osprey Yacht Club. When the green<br />
of spring replaces nature’s winter coat, these intrepid<br />
explorers can be seen piling their kayaks onto trailers<br />
and truck roofs and heading for a new or sometimes<br />
familiar destination.<br />
Close to home, the OYC paddlers return again and<br />
again to Yeopim Creek and its narrow tributaries. A<br />
paddler exploring Frank’s Creek describes* the waters<br />
as ranging from emerald green to jet-black pools under<br />
the trees. The air cool, with very little wind. Birdcalls<br />
heard overhead, the loud hoot of an owl, honking geese,<br />
a crane passing silently overhead. A large group of<br />
cormorants bobbing along, their long necks like sticks<br />
above the surface, suddenly rise from the water, the<br />
Raymonds Creek<br />
The Raymon’s Creek Property Owners’ Association<br />
(RCPOA) is a fully functional neighborhood association,<br />
governed by individuals who live in Raymon’s<br />
Creek. Mike Claggett, Treasurer, reports the following:<br />
The original annual dues payment of $120.00 is still in<br />
effect. This has been possible due to the commitment<br />
of our RCPOA members, which include the original<br />
developers, to volunteer their time and services in order<br />
to maintain and improve the community property and<br />
facilities. Through conservative spending and saving, the<br />
RCPOA has accumulated sufficient funding for three major<br />
projects. We are awaiting permits for a Sill (rip/rap like<br />
rock structure) to be placed under the community pier.<br />
The Sill will allow us to connect to the existing rip/rap of<br />
neighboring properties. With the Sill in place, shoreline<br />
erosion of community property, which has occurred at a<br />
rate of about 30 feet over the last 12 years, should be<br />
greatly reduced. Another major improvement we are<br />
anticipating is a covered pavilion near the entrance of our<br />
community park. The pavilion will allow us a somewhat<br />
protected eating area where the community can share<br />
meals during meetings, work parties, or just have a family<br />
pick-nic. Our final project is a play area for children<br />
with age appropriate swings and slides.<br />

Homemade Pocosin Jam<br />
By Jimmy Fleming mrflemz@embarqmail.com<br />
Don’t let the title mislead you ... Homemade Pocosin Jam is<br />
not some fruity dessert recipe!!! Homemade Pocosin Jam<br />
is a music CD featuring local artists from Tyrrell and Hyde counties<br />
performing folk or root music. The project was conceived by<br />
Pocosin Arts to record local musicians performing either original<br />
material or folk music live onstage. The recording resulted from<br />
a two week artistic residency at Pocosin Arts funded by the NC<br />
Arts Council, the NC Rural Center, and Tyrrell County Schools.<br />
Twenty or so artists were invited to take part in the project and<br />
Gary Mitchell of the group Molasses Creek was selected to<br />
oversee the project and record/produce the live performance.<br />
After several meeting sessions and rehearsals, the actual<br />
performance took place at Madge Vanhorne Auditorium in 2000<br />
to a packed house. Gary Mitchell recorded the entire show and<br />
returned to his studio in Ocracoke to engineer, mix, and produce<br />
the final product which was a 22 song CD with the apt name ~<br />
Homemade Pocosin Jam – Finger Pickin’ Good. I would also<br />
like to give credit to my wife Barbara for creating the CD cover<br />
art. I am very proud to have been part of this project performing<br />
three original songs that I wrote. Some of the others featured on<br />
the CD are The Happy Followers, Jimmy Swain, Ty Fleming (my<br />
son), Robbie Mackey, The Carawan Brothers, Marie Graham,<br />
Bobby West, Brandan Brickhouse, Bryan Owens, Tessi Hollis,<br />
David Furlough, Nikki Armstrong, Jack Donoghue, and Molasses<br />
Creek. If interested you may be able to obtain a copy of<br />
the CD from Pocosin Arts in Columbia and I have seen copies<br />
available on Ebay. Check it out if you get chance!!<br />

Orthodox Christianity by Fr Jonathan Tobias, MDiv, MSEd<br />
The End of the World<br />
These days, there is a lot of anxiety about the end of the<br />
world. It doesn’t seem to matter whether you’re a religious<br />
person or not.<br />
Many Christians think about “the End” as a horrific time of the<br />
Rapture, Tribulation and the Battle of Armageddon. In an oddly<br />
analogous way, non-Christians (or rather, non-religious folk)<br />
have their own “end times” eschatology, marked by equally horrific<br />
figures like over-population, the over-warming of the earth,<br />
asteroids hitting the earth, catastrophic viral epidemics, even the<br />
take-over of human civilization by artificial intelligence.<br />
I am neither exaggerating here, nor am I poking fun at either of<br />
these large groups of people. I think we are right to be concerned<br />
about some of these issues.<br />
But we are not right to be so afraid. And no one has a right to be<br />
a fear-monger, whether they are religious or scientific. People<br />
can learn to be better stewards of nature without browbeating<br />
them with specters of environmental collapse. Just the same,<br />
people can grow in belief in God, and a lifestyle of love and<br />
virtue, without frightening them with images of eschatological<br />
dread.<br />
“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear.” St<br />
John wrote this in his first epistle (4.18). And the early Biblical<br />
Christian community knew this well. When they thought about<br />
the end of the world, which they called “the Last Day,” their attitude<br />
sharply differed from the modern one of panic and dread.<br />
They knew, beyond any doubt, that the Last Day would be<br />
the return of Jesus Christ to the world in glory. Unlike his first<br />
coming in Bethlehem, this second coming would be obvious to<br />
everyone. The entire world would recognize him at once as the<br />
loving God, clearly beautiful as the powerful but merciful Prince<br />
of Peace.<br />
At that moment, the entire universe would be bathed in glory,<br />
and in the fullness of divine love.<br />
To be sure, they will be those whose entire life is built on violence<br />
and hatred, and their experience of this Last Day glory<br />
will be appalling. According to Orthodox doctrine, this reaction<br />
against Divine Love is exactly what perdition is.<br />
But to those who live for love, who breathe in peace, who give<br />
their lives away in mercy and service, who wait upon beauty and<br />
goodness -- then for these, the Last Day when Jesus comes<br />
back to this earth will be a day of unbounded joy.<br />
These early Christians looked upon the Last Day with hope.<br />
They had a motto: “Marana Tha!” Which means, “Come quickly,<br />
Lord!” They wanted to see, in their own lifetime, the Lord who<br />
calls us all his “friends.” Not enemies or slaves of fate and objects<br />
of deterministic manipulation, born only to sorrow.<br />
But friends.<br />
The end of the world is really all about the return of the Friend, https://stgeorgeedenton.org<br />
the infinite Lover of humanity. It is something to be hoped for,<br />
and lived for in breathless anticipation.<br />

Historical American Space Initiatives in <strong>July</strong><br />
By: Kameron Iriarte Intern at MOA<br />
Museum of the <strong>Albemarle</strong><br />
Since the month of <strong>July</strong> is here, we are celebrating our history. <strong>July</strong> is a<br />
month with many historical moments in American history; specifically,<br />
many notable space events. Many people are familiar with Neil Armstrong<br />
being the first man to step on the moon on <strong>July</strong> 20th, 1969. However, <strong>July</strong><br />
20th was the day of another American space initiative: the Viking 1 landing.<br />
The Viking 1 spacecraft was created by NASA and consisted of an orbiter<br />
and a lander. The spacecraft launched to Mars on August 20th, 1975, and<br />
successfully landed on <strong>July</strong> 20th, 1976. After the Viking 1 landed, it became<br />
the first spacecraft to successfully land on Mars. After landing, the goal was<br />
to find signs of life on Mars. The Viking 1 employed the use of an orbiter and<br />
a lander to take high-resolution images detailing the surface and atmosphere<br />
of the planet. The imaging system of the lander provided massive 300-degree<br />
images that showed the surrounding environment. Interestingly, the imaging<br />
system of the lander was not the only notable tool. Among the lander’s<br />
arsenal of tools was a robotic arm. On <strong>July</strong> 28th, 1976, the Viking 1 lander<br />
made history again by using its robotic arm to perform the first soil samples<br />
on Mars. After the Viking 1 mission was completed, the orbiter and lander<br />
continued to serve NASA until 1980 and 1982, respectively. By remaining<br />
active long past the 90-day life expectancy, the Viking 1 spacecraft allowed<br />
scientists to collect further data on Mars. If you are interested about space,<br />
be sure to visit some of the space programs this <strong>July</strong> at the Museum of the<br />
<strong>Albemarle</strong>!<br />

Guitar Tech Talk<br />
Fret Dressing (Do not try this at home)<br />
As I mentioned before, just like cars need tune-ups<br />
and tender loving care so does your guitar. Although<br />
there are many things you can do yourself as far<br />
as your car goes, there are many more things you need<br />
a trained professional to fix on your guitar. One of those<br />
many things is a fret dress.<br />
An uneven fret or frets, can affect the way you play<br />
whether it’s an acoustic or electric guitar. All frets<br />
have to be even, to where they follow the contour of<br />
the fret board, so as you move down the neck you<br />
don’t get buzzing from the string or strings. In order to<br />
remedy fret buzz, Frets all have to be planed evenly.<br />
This makes the journey up the fret board sound better<br />
without encountering that annoying dead note. The<br />
process in which I do this is referred to as planing the<br />
Frets. The purpose? It allows you to achieve a lower<br />
playing action, meaning its more comfortable to play the<br />
guitar and eliminates dead notes and buzzing strings.<br />
So, having the Frets dressed, can dramatically change<br />
the way a guitar plays, for the better. In order to perform<br />
a Fret Dress, I will take a tool that’s designed for this<br />
particular purpose and file the frets uniformly to take<br />
down any high frets to the same level. But it’s not just<br />
willy-nilly filing. We have to do what’s called fall off. This<br />
means filing the 14th and beyond frets at a very slight<br />
angle towards the body of the guitar. You get a “falling<br />
off” look at the tongue of the fret board.<br />
you would like for someone to care for you. If properly<br />
maintained, your Grandchildren’s, grandchildren will get<br />
to enjoy your instrument. So, until next time, play well,<br />
play hard, and Play often!!!!!<br />

and win back as much independent ground for<br />
himself as possible”<br />
― William S. Burroughs<br />
First and foremost, I protect the guitar by putting a<br />
protective cover over the body and then tape up the fret<br />
board exposing only the frets. I then begin to mark each<br />
fret with a sharpie for a reference point while sanding.<br />
I need to know when enough sanding has been done.<br />
There is a lot to it, and covering it in this article would<br />
take up 3 full pages. My goal is to inform people that<br />
there are ways to make a guitar play better. Sometimes<br />
a basic setup will do the trick. Other times, it will not.<br />

are, and it should be cared for in the same manner as<br />

Summer Program at the Frisco Native American Museum & Natural History Center<br />
Many historians argue that the two most important developments<br />
in human history were the ability to use fire as a<br />
tool and the skill to shape tools from natural materials. Thousands<br />
of years ago, early humans began to turn rocks into<br />
tools by hitting them against each other to create sharp edges.<br />
Though that may sound simple, “knapping” (the term used for<br />
shaping stone) evolved from using stone chips as scrapers to<br />
much more complex tools. The knapper had to find a rock that<br />
was brittle yet uniform in structure and then control the way the<br />
rock broke or flaked when struck. The process was incredibly<br />
tedious and time consuming. With a fraction of pressure too<br />
much, a nearly complete instrument could suddenly crack and<br />
become two useless pieces of stone. But In the hands of a<br />
skilled knapper, carefully edged rocks became arrowheads,<br />
spear points, scrapers - effective working blades that changed<br />
the course of history.<br />
“Bushcraft” has become a popular term to describe the skills<br />
necessary for survival in the natural world. Knapping falls into<br />
that category, and knapped tools have evolved into works of<br />
art that are prized not only for their usefulness but for their<br />
beauty as well. The Frisco Native American Museum will host<br />
a bushcrafter as one of the summer programs for <strong>2019</strong>. Jason<br />
Demon will demonstrate the ancient craft and display an array<br />
of knapped tools. Visitors will also have an opportunity to see<br />
an array of knapped artifacts on display at the museum. The<br />
presentation is included in museum admission.<br />

Marvelous Mahi<br />
By Rosie Hawthorne<br />
Wave<br />
One of the perks of living where we do is our access to some<br />
of the best seafood in the world. My son recently went<br />
deep-sea fishing and came back with dolphinfish, AKA mahi<br />
mahi, a beautiful fish and one of my favorite eating fishes. From<br />
ocean to table in just a few hours, it doesn’t get any fresher than<br />
this.<br />
I’m preparing beer-battered and fried bites, served with a simple<br />
side of coleslaw and a duo of dipping sauces – cocktail and remoulade.<br />
My batter is light and crisp and perfectly complements<br />
the sweet, succulent meat of the fish.<br />
It's not just another wave,<br />
it's an experience.<br />

For any culinary questions, e-me at<br />
Rosie Hawthorne@gmail.com.<br />
Beer-Battered Fried Mahi Mahi<br />
Mahi mahi fillets, cut into bite-sized pieces, about 1 – 1<br />
½ inch cubes<br />
For the batter:<br />
½ cup flour<br />
½ cup corn starch<br />
1 tsp baking powder<br />
1 tsp dried mustard<br />
½ tsp cayenne<br />
Pinch kosher salt<br />
About a cup of beer<br />
Whisk all dry ingredients together, then slowly stir in<br />
beer. About a cup. You know – until it “looks right,”<br />
like a thin pancake batter.<br />
For the frying oil, I use peanut oil. It’s a neutral flavored<br />
oil and it has a high smoke point. The smoke<br />
point of an oil is the temperature at which the oil starts<br />
to smoke, burn, and disintegrate. The higher the<br />
smoke point, the more “refined” the oil, meaning fewer<br />
impurities in the oil, which can break down and cause<br />
the oil to smoke, imparting a burnt flavor to your fried<br />
food.<br />
Photo and fish courtesy of<br />
Youngest Hawthorne.<br />
absorb the oil, essentially steaming your food, resulting<br />
in a greasy, not crisp, product. In other words, always<br />
fry in batches, maintaining the high temperature, to get<br />
a golden brown, crisp, and greaseless crust.<br />
Drop the fish pieces into the batter to coat, then pick<br />
up each piece individually and let the excess batter<br />
drain off before gently easing into the hot oil. Fry in<br />
small batches about 2 minutes, turning, until golden<br />
brown. Drain on a rack.<br />
For the dipping sauces, I have the ubiquitous cocktail sauce and a<br />
remoulade sauce.<br />
For the cocktail sauce:<br />
½ cup ketchup<br />
1-2 TB horseradish<br />
1 TB lemon juice<br />
1 TB Lea & Perrins Worcestershire.<br />
Amounts are suggestions and a starting point. Adjust according to<br />
your own tastes. And when I combine these ingredients, I don’t<br />
make a homogeneous mixture. I swirl the ingredients, giving me<br />
“pockets of flavors.”<br />
For the remoulade sauce:<br />
½ cup mayonnaise<br />
1 TB lemon juice<br />
1 -2 tsp coarse grained mustard<br />
1 tsp Tabasco or Texas Pete<br />
½ tsp Lea & Perrins<br />
¼ tsp paprika<br />
¼ tsp cayenne<br />
½ tsp chopped capers<br />
2 tsp chopped parsley<br />
1 TB thinly sliced scallions<br />
Combine all ingredients.<br />
Enjoy!<br />

Beaver Lake<br />
Beaver Lake continues its legacy of memorable and unique water sports<br />
events again this summer with back to back tournaments in June and <strong>July</strong>.<br />
The Beaver Lake Pro-Am will be on June 15-16th followed by the North Carolina<br />
State Water Ski Championships on <strong>July</strong> 13-14th. The club will also log its 30th<br />
year of skiing in their little slice of heaven surrounded by the swamps and sand<br />
ridges of western Gates County!<br />
Beaver Lake Ski Club began as a spinoff from the River City Ski Club in Elizabeth<br />
City back in 1990. Recognizing that competition water skiing was migrating<br />
away from busy public waterways to calm private lakes led a few of its members<br />
on a search that would ultimately land them in an old sand pit in Eure, NC. After<br />
several years of working more than skiing, the borrow pit that had once been an<br />
overgrown wasteland littered with everything from old tires to appliances was<br />
now one of the premier water ski sites in the country!<br />

The State Championships has been held at Beaver Lake many times since then,<br />
along with pro jump and slalom tournaments, national collegiate and record<br />
capability events. The organization is especially proud of the charity tournament<br />
they hosted for many years, the Haley Mitchell Ski-a-thon, which raised over<br />
$450,000.00 for research for a cure for Spinal Muscular Atrophy. While continuing<br />
with marquee competitions, the ski club has also been working more with<br />
adaptive water sports for physically challenged skiers as well as hosting youth<br />
ski clinics. The club is interested in partnering with other area organizations in<br />
developing more opportunities for youth in surrounding towns to get on the water.<br />
Beaver Lake is located on highway 13/158 about 2 miles north of the Chowan<br />
River Bridge. Our family oriented events are free to spectators and swimming is<br />
allowed. We appreciate folks in the area coming out and supporting our tournaments<br />
and events. If you have never been to a Beaver Lake ski event, you really<br />
should come out and enjoy a few hours by the lake for a unique experience with<br />
great people!<br />

Dismal Swamp Canal Welcome Center<br />
Happy 30th Birthday<br />
The Dismal Swamp Canal Welcome Center opened<br />
in the spring of 1989 and has offered travelers<br />
and tourists a welcome stop between endless miles<br />
of fields and open spaces along US Highway 17 in<br />
Northeastern NC. Located in Camden County, just<br />
three miles south of the Virginia and North Carolina<br />
border, the center has expanded and evolved over<br />
time. Originally, one compact building provided restrooms<br />
and tourism information. Attendance exceeded<br />
the projected visitation, and in a short time, plans<br />
to add an additional building were developed, creating<br />
a new tourism office and the original building was<br />
converted into Rest Rooms.<br />
Many travelers are pleasantly surprised to see<br />
sailboats and trawlers tied up to the 150’ face dock,<br />
located on the banks of the historic Dismal Swamp<br />
Canal. This Visitor Center welcomes both highway<br />
and waterway travelers entering or leaving our beautiful<br />
state. Today’s travelers can also visit the Dismal<br />
Swamp State Park, a North Carolina State Park, adjacent<br />
to the Welcome Center property, to explore trails,<br />
visit exhibits or learn more of the history of the Dismal<br />
Swamp in their attractive Visitor Center. Camden<br />
County Parks and Recreation manage a paved trail<br />
which lies between the waterway and the highway,<br />
beginning at the end of the State Park’s property. This<br />
facility is owned by NC Department of Transportation<br />
and tourism office is managed by Camden County.<br />
Today our staff continues to provide updated tourism<br />
information for all of North Carolina, and promoting<br />
the attractions in Northeast North Carolina. To date,<br />
over 16 million travelers have visited this complex.<br />
In 2018, the Center was noted inUSA Todayas one of<br />
the best Rest Areas in the nation, whileArchitectural<br />
Digestdeclared it “One of the most beautiful Rest<br />
Areas in America”. We invite you to share your own<br />
opinion! Stop by to wish us a Happy Birthday and pick<br />

5 Delicious Low-Carb Recipes Perfect for a Cookout<br />
(StatePoint) Food on the grill, carb-loaded side dishes and<br />
high-sugar desserts are at the center of most seasonal<br />
cookouts. But this doesn’t mean you need to avoid those<br />
countless neighborhood barbecues to ensure you stay on<br />
track with your healthy lifestyle.<br />
Courtney McCormick, manager of Clinical Research &<br />
Nutrition for South Beach Diet, recommends these five lower-carb<br />
recipes that are great to bring along to any cookout.<br />
• Shredded Chicken Chili: Just toss some chicken, beans,<br />
tomatoes and a combination of chili powder, ground cumin,<br />
paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and<br />
oregano in your slow cooker and let that magic machine do<br />
all the work. Six hours later, you’ll have perfectly cooked<br />
chicken and plenty of flavorful fixings for fewer calories than<br />
a chicken prepared in a sugary or cheesy sauce.<br />
• Avocado Tuna Sandwiches: Mix lemon juice, avocado,<br />
Dijon mustard, salt and pepper in a small bowl and add<br />
canned tuna fish. Scoop onto a slice of whole grain bread<br />
with arugula, sliced cucumbers and red onions and you’ve<br />
got yourself a delicious sandwich to eat in place of that<br />
hamburger.<br />
• Skinny Shrimp Fajitas: You won’t miss the tortilla with this<br />
recipe! Combine shrimp, onion, bell pepper, olive oil and dry<br />
fajita spices such as chili powder, garlic, onion, cumin and<br />
paprika in a large bowl. Pour into a veggie basket or place<br />
on skewers and let the grill do the work for you.<br />
• Pesto Cilantro Dip: Bake walnuts at 275 degrees until golden<br />
brown, then chop cilantro, garlic, and walnuts in a food<br />
processor for about 25 seconds. With the machine running,<br />
pour olive oil in a steady stream. Add sour cream, lemon<br />
juice and salt. Pulse a few times to combine and you’re<br />
done! Serve with fresh veggies.<br />
“This recipe is quick and simple,” says McCormick. “It contains<br />
minimal ingredients and it is packed with healthy fats.<br />
Plus, it keeps five days in the refrigerator and freezes for up<br />
to a month.”<br />
• South Beach Coleslaw: Coleslaw is a BBQ staple and<br />
this recipe for a lighter version of it is easy as 1-2-3! Whisk<br />
together mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, celery seed and a<br />
sugar substitute. Add cabbage and toss to combine. Season<br />
to taste with salt and pepper and refrigerate until ready to<br />
serve.<br />
For more details on these recipes and other great tips and<br />
tricks to lose weight and live healthier, visit South Beach<br />
Diet’s website The Palm at palm.southbeachdiet.com/cookout-low-carb-recipes.<br />
Remember, cookouts don’t need to wreak havoc on your<br />
healthy diet. By making some simple swaps and choosing<br />
healthier options, you’ll stay on track while still enjoying time<br />
outdoors with family and friends.<br />

A battle of heavyweights at the Virginia ratifying convention<br />
by Tara Ross<br />
In 1788, Virginia ratifies the United States Constitution.<br />
At the time, many thought that Virginia had provided the<br />
critical 9th vote to put the Constitution into effect. They were<br />
wrong. New Hampshire provided that vote on June 21.<br />
Virginia’s ratifying convention was a battle of heavyweights.<br />
There may have been just a few strong opinions in the room.<br />
On one side of the aisle, the “Father of the Constitution,”<br />
James Madison, advocated for ratification. George Washington<br />
was not present, but he wrote letters in favor of the<br />
Constitution from home. Governor Edmund Randolph also<br />
argued for ratification, despite the fact that he’d earlier<br />
refused to sign the document as a delegate at the Constitutional<br />
Convention.<br />
On the other side sat Patrick Henry, future President James<br />
Monroe, and the author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights,<br />
George Mason. You can imagine that, given his oratorical<br />
skills and big personality, Henry’s opposition may have been<br />
the biggest obstacle.<br />
Prior to the convention, Madison wrote to Thomas Jefferson,<br />
who was then in Paris: “Mr. Henry is the great adversary who<br />
will render the event precarious. He is I find with his usual<br />
address, working up every possible interest, into a spirit of<br />
opposition.”<br />
Oh, to be a fly on the wall! Can’t you just imagine Henry passionately<br />
ranting a bit? Madison trying to counter his points in<br />
a more stoic way?<br />
Adding to the drama, the Convention had agreed to go<br />
through the Constitution “clause by clause,” but Henry<br />
seemed unable to stick with the plan. On the second day<br />
of debate, he gave a very long speech. It covers more than<br />
20 pages in Elliot’s debates! Henry concluded his tirade by<br />
noting that “I have not said the one hundred thousandth part<br />
of what I have on my mind, and wish to impart.” Yikes! No<br />
wonder Governor Randolph concluded the day by noting:<br />
“Mr. Chairman, if we go on in this irregular manner, contrary<br />
to our resolution, instead of three or six weeks, it will take us<br />
six months to decide this question.”<br />
Well, I guess so!<br />
Henry felt that the national government created by the Constitution<br />
was too strong. It was a “consolidated” one, when it<br />
should be a confederacy of states.<br />
“That this is a consolidated government,” he opined, “is<br />
demonstrably clear; and the danger of such a government is,<br />
to my mind, very striking. . . . What right had they to say, We,<br />
the people? . . . Who authorized them to speak the language<br />
of, We, the people, instead of, We, the states? States are the<br />
characteristics and the soul of a confederation. If the states<br />
be not the agents of this compact, it must be one great,<br />
consolidated, national government, of the people of all the<br />
states.”<br />
In short, Anti-Federalists did not believe that the national government<br />
would remain limited. At a minimum, they wanted a<br />
Bill of Rights to reserve certain powers to the states or to the<br />
people.<br />
Madison argued that such an enumeration of rights would be<br />
actively dangerous to liberty. He asked the convention: “Can<br />
the general government exercise any power not delegated?<br />
If an enumeration be made of our rights, will it not be implied<br />
that every thing omitted is given to the general government?”<br />
It took the better part of a month, but Madison’s arguments<br />
eventually won the day. On June 25, the Convention ratified<br />
the Constitution, without requiring the addition of a Bill of<br />
Rights first. It did, however, later approve a list of proposed<br />
amendments to be recommended to the First Congress.<br />

Bastiat on the Nature of Government (and Why America’s Was the Exception)<br />
By: Gary M. Galles<br />
Reprinted with permission from fee.org<br />
Independence Day is an excellent time to carefully consider Frédéric Bastiat’s 1848 essay, “Government,”<br />
one of the most insightful critiques ever given for understanding the problems that<br />
beset governance.<br />
America’s governance problems are a common topic among<br />
Americans. But each Fourth of <strong>July</strong> brings that subject to<br />
the fore. Unfortunately, however, much of the discussion and<br />
many asserted “solutions” derive from a mistaken approach<br />
to government. That is why Independence Day is an excellent<br />
time to carefully consider Frédéric Bastiat’s 1848 essay, “Government,”<br />
one of the most insightful critiques ever given for<br />
understanding the problems that beset governance.<br />
“I should be glad...if you had really discovered a beneficent<br />
and inexhaustible being, calling itself the Government...which<br />
can provide for all our wants...correct all our errors, repair all<br />
our faults, and exempt us henceforth from the necessity for<br />
foresight, prudence, judgment, sagacity, experience, order,<br />
economy, temperance, and activity.”<br />
“Nothing could be more convenient than that we should all…<br />
have within our reach an inexhaustible source of wealth and<br />
enlightenment—a universal physician, an unlimited treasure,<br />
and an infallible counselor, such as you describe Government<br />
to be.”<br />
“Man...recoils from trouble...yet he is condemned by nature<br />
to the suffering of privation, if he does not take the trouble to<br />
work...What means can he adopt to avoid both?...to enjoy the<br />
labor of others. [But]...our disposition to defend our property<br />
prevents direct and open plunder from being easy.”<br />
“The oppressor no longer acts directly and with his own powers<br />
upon his victim... We all therefore, put in our claim, under<br />
some pretext or other, and apply to Government. We say to<br />
it ‘I should like...the possessions of others. But this would be<br />
dangerous. Could you not facilitate the thing for me?...the law<br />
will have acted for me, and I shall have all the advantages of<br />
plunder, without its risk or its disgrace.’”<br />
“[But] Government cannot satisfy one party without adding to<br />
the labor of the others...Government is the great fiction through<br />
which everybody endeavors to live at the expense of everybody<br />
else. Everyone is, more or less, for profiting by the labors of<br />
others...Government is applied to, and every class...says, ‘You,<br />
who can take justifiably and honestly, take from the public, and<br />
we will partake.’”<br />
“Alas, Government is only too much disposed to follow this<br />
diabolical advice...to be the judge and the master of the destinies<br />
of all...But the most remarkable part of it is the astonishing<br />
blindness of the public...who never seem to suspect that reciprocal<br />
plunder is no less plunder because it is reciprocal; that it<br />
is no less criminal because it is executed legally.”<br />
“But the thing that...never will be seen...is that Government can<br />
restore more to the public than it has taken from it...to confer<br />
a particular benefit upon any one... without inflicting a greater<br />
injury upon the community as a whole...to do more harm than<br />
good.”<br />
“Thus the public has two hopes, and Government makes two<br />
promises—many benefits and no taxes. Hopes and promises,<br />
which, being contradictory, can never be realized.”<br />
“In all times, two political systems have been in existence...<br />
According to one of them, Government ought to do much, but<br />
then it ought to take much. According to the other, this two-fold<br />
activity ought to be little felt. We have to choose between these<br />
two systems.”<br />
“Government is and ought to be nothing but the united power<br />
of the people, organized, not to be an instrument of oppression<br />
and mutual plunder among citizens, but, on the contrary, to<br />
secure to everyone his own, and to cause justice and security<br />
to reign.”<br />
When Bastiat, one of history’s most clear-eyed and ardent<br />
defenders of liberty, wrote, he cited America as an exception to<br />
his analysis of government. The reason was that here, “there is<br />
no chimerical creation, no abstraction, from which the citizens<br />
may demand everything. They expect nothing except from<br />
themselves and their own energy.”<br />
In other words, unlike most governments, ours still largely<br />
followed its legitimate role of protecting our rights and liberties.<br />
Unfortunately, that vision of American government has been<br />
largely replaced by one of coercive intervention and redistribution<br />
whenever those “in charge” see fit, combined with ever<br />
more intense political competition to take control of ever more<br />
such power. That loss of our one-time uniqueness is our central<br />
governance problem.<br />

(SPM Wire) Summer is here, and nature beckons.<br />
The benefits of spending time outside --<br />
from an increase in vitamin D levels to the healing<br />
powers of nature -- are common knowledge,<br />
and outdoor activities are widely encouraged by<br />
various health organizations. But while you’re<br />
out and about enjoying fresh air, don’t forget to<br />
take precautions against the possibility of being<br />
bitten by a tick.<br />
Ticks are tiny arthropods that live by feeding<br />
on the blood of other animals and people. They<br />
often transmit a variety of complicated infections<br />
that, if untreated, can lead to dire consequences.<br />
But you don’t have to let these tiny creatures<br />
get in the way of your enjoyment of nature. Just<br />
make sure to follow few simple rules before and<br />
after your outing:<br />
• Treat clothing and gear with products containing<br />
permethrin, and your body with EPA-registered<br />
insect repellent.<br />
• Cover up if you will be spending time in bushy<br />
or wooded areas or wandering through fields of<br />
tall grass. Wear long sleeves and tuck your long<br />
pants into your socks -- while this look would be<br />
frowned upon by the fashion-conscious, it may,<br />
literally, save your life!<br />
• Once home, check your clothes and body for<br />
ticks, and don’t forget some of the not-so-obvious<br />
places, like your scalp, belly button and<br />
underarms.<br />

Northeast North Carolina Family History - history to visit in our backyards…<br />
By: Irene Hampton - nencfamilyhistory@gmail.com<br />
Some of us are familiar with the oldest brick house in North<br />
Carolina just down the road in Perquimans county. The<br />
Newbold-White House located at 151 Newbold-White Road in<br />
Hertford is a brick home built by Abraham and Judith Sanders<br />
and dates from 1730. It is furnished from the time period<br />
between 1730 and 1750 when Abraham died and contains four<br />
rooms. As summer finds many of us seeking a place to visit,<br />
some historic homes where we can appreciate the lives of our<br />
ancestors seems a good choice. The Newbold-White House<br />
is open Thursdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.<br />
between early April and October 31st. For more information<br />
the website is: https://www.perquimansrestoration.org/index.<br />

In June my husband and I drove to Surry County in Virginia<br />
to see a location we have wanted to visit for a number of years.<br />
We should have done it when we lived in Elizabeth City as it<br />
would have been closer, but it was about a two hour drive from<br />
southern Currituck. Bacon’s Castle was built by Arthur Allen.<br />
It is the oldest brick house in North America and one of only<br />
three Jacobean homes in our hemisphere! The other two are<br />
in the Barbados so if you want to drive - it’s your only choice…<br />
Four about four months in 1676, it was occupied by members<br />
of Nathaniel Bacon’s insurrection. Our guide said they don’t<br />
believe he was ever personally on the property. The members<br />
of his group chased the family of Arthur Allen II out and pretty<br />
much trashed the place before their rebellion ended. Bacon<br />
himself died of dysentery before it was all over and 22 of his<br />
group were hanged by the governor of Virginia. It is interesting<br />
that the naming of the area relates to such a short termed<br />
event, but roads, churches and many businesses in the area<br />
carry Bacon’s Castle. The house is fully restored and has a<br />
beautifully reconstructed formal English garden that was full of<br />
butterflies when we visited.<br />
It is owned and operated by Preservation Virginia and mostly<br />
open on weekends. For more information and pricing visit<br />
their website: https://preservationvirginia.org/historic-sites/bacons-castle/<br />
Dr Bald<br />
Since we were going to be in Surry County anyway, I<br />
searched online to find other sites of interest and was surprised<br />
that about twelve miles away from Bacon’s Castle, Preservation<br />
Virginia had another historic home that at one time was<br />
thought to be the oldest brick house in America. Smith’s Fort<br />
Plantation is a part of the property originally given to John Rolfe<br />
and Pocahontas by her father at the time of their marriage.<br />
Dendrochronology which dates wood, changed the date of the<br />
home from the mid 1600’s to the mid 1700’s and it is similar<br />
to the White-Newbold home in that it contains four rooms on<br />
two floors. Built by Jacob Faulcon, the house was purchased<br />
and restored by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. in 1932 and acquired<br />
by what is now Preservation Virginia in 1933. The furnishings<br />
are from the late 1600’s and early 1700’s and describing them<br />
as impressive does not do them justice. A half mile walk down<br />
a slightly overgrown farm road from the house brings you<br />
to the site of Captain John Smith’s 1609 “New Fort” directly<br />
across the James River from Jamestown. All that remains are<br />
the earthworks similar to those on Roanoke Island. With the<br />
vegetation including stately old trees, you would probably miss<br />
the site if it weren’t for the markers. You can appreciate that<br />
it would have been an easy site to defend as in Smith’s own<br />
words the site is, “...upon high commanding hill, very hard to be<br />
assaulted an easie to be defended.” If you buy tickets to both<br />
sites you get a reduced price and for more information visit<br />
the website at: https://preservationvirginia.org/historic-sites/<br />
smiths-fort-plantation/<br />
Take time to visit some interesting sites this summer. If not<br />
sites historic to the country at least to your family and record<br />
your visit and what your family did there for posterity. Enjoy the<br />
pictures I’m including - hopefully...<br />

Dr. Bald recently gave a presentation to the Elizabeth<br />
City Morning Rotary Club on his volunteer<br />
work in Uganda and Tanzania. He shared slides and<br />
stories of multiple surgeries he performed in these<br />
countries where there are about 30 oral surgeons to<br />
serve over 50 million people.<br />
In March Dr. Bald will again be visiting Tanzania. Now,<br />
in Tanzania, any patient needing anesthesia must go to<br />
the hospital. During this visit Dr. Bald will train Tanzanian<br />
oral surgeons to administer anesthesia for minor<br />
surgeries in medical offices and clinical settings. Dr.<br />
Bald will present his workshops at the Dental School at<br />
Muhimbili National Hospital in Dar es Salaam.<br />
In the <strong>Albemarle</strong> Region, Dr. Bald uses modern equipment<br />
and anesthesia techniques. Our goal is to provide<br />
excellent care for every patient. Even though Dr. Bald<br />
has extracted over 350,000 teeth, each patient is an<br />
individual and every case is unique.<br />
Our patients have a positive experience! Recent<br />
patients have commented, “ I would recommend every<br />
person I know to go there.”; “As soon as I walked in<br />
I felt very comfortable.”; “The experience was very<br />
positive, easy, and fast!!!”; “My waiting time was very<br />
short.”; “I was super afraid of getting my wisdom teeth<br />
removed. He put my mind at ease.”; “I got in the week<br />
I called.”; “I really liked Dr. Bald and his staff.”; “Best<br />
dental appointment ever!”; “Dr. Bald was amazing. He<br />
talked me through the whole procedure. He was very<br />
pleasant and positive and funny.”<br />
Our Elizabeth City location is at 1134 N. Road Street,<br />
Building 7, near the hospital. We also have an office in<br />
Nags Head where we do surgeries on Thursdays. We<br />
offer Saturday appointments in Elizabeth City. At both<br />
locations we pull teeth AND more.<br />
Please call us for your oral surgery needs.<br />

Work Toward Your Own Financial Independence Day<br />
Once again, it’s time for fireworks, pic-nics<br />
and parades as the nation celebrates Independence<br />
Day. Collectively, we enjoy many liberties,<br />
but some freedoms can be elusive – and<br />
financial freedom is one of them. What actions<br />
can you take to help yourself eventually declare<br />
your own financial independence?<br />
For starters, you’ll want to determine what financial<br />
independence means to you. Is it the liberty<br />
to meet all your cash flow needs? The freedom<br />
to retire comfortably, at the age you choose? The<br />
ability to set up the kind of legacy you’d like to<br />
leave?<br />
If any or all of these things are important to you,<br />
consider the following suggestions:<br />
• Liberate yourself from oppressive debts.<br />
The cost of living is certainly not cheap, so it’s<br />
hardly surprising that so many people incur significant<br />
debt. Yet, the higher your debt load, the<br />
less you’ll have available to invest for the future.<br />
Debt might be one of the biggest barriers you<br />
face on the road to your financial independence.<br />
To avoid piling on too much debt, live within your<br />
means. Take steps such as saving for a vacation,<br />
rather than putting it all on your credit card,<br />

and getting just one more year out of that old<br />
car. Look for bargains everywhere – and find<br />
out what you can live without. And if you have<br />
sizable debts, see if you can consolidate them<br />
and lower your interest payments.<br />
• Free yourself from chaotic investing.<br />
The financial markets can be unpredictable –<br />
but that doesn’t mean your investment moves<br />
have to be chaotic. So, for example, instead of<br />
responding to a sudden plunge in stock prices<br />
by selling stocks that still may be fundamentally<br />
sound with strong growth potential, you might<br />
be much better off by holding your ground. And<br />
you’ll be in a better position to do nothing during<br />
periods of market volatility when you’ve already<br />
done something – namely, built an investment<br />
portfolio that reflects your goals, time horizon<br />
and risk tolerance. With this type of portfolio in<br />
place, you’ll be in a good position to overlook the<br />
day-to-day fluctuations in the market and keep<br />
your focus on your long-term goals.<br />
• Unleash the potential in your re-tirement plan.<br />
Your 401(k) or similar employer-sponsored plan<br />
is a great way to save for retirement. You can<br />

contribute pre-tax dollars, so the more you put<br />
in, the lower your taxable income, and your earnings<br />
can grow tax deferred. (With a Roth 401(k),<br />
you put in after-tax dollars, but your withdrawals<br />
are tax-free, pro-vided you meet certain conditions.)<br />
But despite these tax advantages, your 401(k)’s<br />
full potential won’t be realized unless you fund it<br />
adequately. Try to contribute as much as you can<br />
afford each year and increase your contributions<br />
as your salary goes up. Another way to uncap<br />
your 401(k)’s potential is by choosing appropriate<br />
investments. Your 401(k) likely contains a<br />
dozen or more investment options, so you’ll want<br />
a mix that offers the greatest possibilities for<br />
growth within the context of your personal risk<br />
tolerance.<br />
Gaining your financial independence requires<br />
time and commitment. But once you’ve achieved<br />
this freedom, you’ll know it was worth the effort.<br />
And who knows? You might even want to wave a<br />
sparkler or two to celebrate.<br />

New Life of Currituck<br />
Making memories<br />
by Pastor Dan Bergey<br />
Something that I have learned over the years is that memories<br />
are a part of what shapes us, good and bad ones. Sometimes<br />
those memories get locked away until something happens and<br />
brings them back to the surface. Often it’s the little things in life that<br />
end up meaning the most to us later in life. It’s not the stuff that we<br />
had that is important but instead the things that we did. The times we<br />
spent together as a family, the times we helped someone in need,<br />
the times that we were there for someone when they needed us the<br />
most. We try to lock away and forget the bad things. The bad things<br />
are just as important in shaping us as the good. We need to learn<br />
from the bad and not dwell on it. Give everything to God, the good<br />
and the bad.<br />
Don’t let situations control who and what you are. In a way it’s like<br />
this with God. He remembers what we did too. He remembers when<br />
we spend time with him, when we help people, when we do everything.<br />
The best part is that when we turn our lives over to God and<br />
ask for forgiveness, he forgets our bad stuff. Psalm 25:7 says “Do<br />
not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; According<br />
to Your lovingkindness remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O<br />
LORD.” It’s important to spend time with your family and make memories,<br />
but it’s even more important to spend time with God and make<br />
memories with him. As you are out this summer “making memories”<br />
with your family, don’t forget to spend time with God too.<br />
Psalm 98:3 He has remembered His lovingkindness and His faithfulness<br />
to the house of Israel; All the ends of the earth have seen the<br />
salvation of our God.<br />

As the sun rose above the trees,<br />
I sat in the duck blind watching the reflection appear on the water,<br />
The decoys set in place,<br />
The distant sounds of geese; tundra swan and ducks,<br />
Minutes before the sky would come to life,<br />
I thought of God’s Creation.<br />
As I sat in the deer stand overlooking a tree where a buck had rubbed,<br />
The leaves falling and glistening from the frost,<br />
The sounds of a squirrel rustling on the ground,<br />
A cardinal sitting on a limb,<br />
I thought of God’s Creation.<br />
What a magnificent opportunity and creation God has given each of us to<br />
enjoy. We are called the SOUL HUNTERS; a nonprofit outdoor organization<br />

<strong>Albemarle</strong> Eye Center<br />
by: Kierstan Boyd<br />
Astigmatism is an imperfection in the curvature of<br />
your eye’s cornea or lens. Normally, the cornea<br />
and lens are smooth and curved equally in all directions.<br />
This helps to focus light rays sharply onto<br />
the retina at the back of your eye. If your cornea or<br />
lens isn’t smooth and evenly curved, light rays aren’t<br />
refracted (bent) properly. Doctors call this a refractive<br />
error.<br />
When your cornea has an irregular shape, you have<br />
corneal astigmatism. When the shape of your lens is<br />
distorted, you have lenticular astigmatism. In either<br />
case, your vision for both near and far objects is blurry<br />
or distorted. It’s almost like looking into a fun house<br />
mirror in which you can appear too tall, too short, too<br />
wide or too thin.<br />
People may have astigmatism along with other refractive<br />
errors. Those errors may include things like:<br />
• nearsightedness (myopia) or<br />
• farsightedness (hyperopia).<br />
Adults with significant astigmatism may realize their<br />
vision isn’t as good as it should be. Children with astigmatism<br />
symptoms may not be aware they have this<br />
condition. They are unlikely to complain about blurred<br />
or distorted vision.<br />
Uncorrected astigmatism can impact a child’s ability to<br />
achieve in school and sports. It is crucial that children<br />
have regular eye exams. Get these exams to detect<br />
astigmatism and other vision problems as early as<br />
possible.<br />

jobs and allows an employee to earn” a living wage” which in turn<br />
pulls families and communities out of poverty and government dependency.<br />

our money turning -over in the local economy while assisting the<br />

What Causes Astigmatism?<br />
Astigmatism is caused by an irregular curvature of the<br />
eye’s cornea or lens. If your cornea or lens isn’t evenly<br />
curved, light rays aren’t refracted properly. With astigmatism<br />
you have blurred or distorted vision at near<br />
and far distances.<br />
Astigmatism is very common. Doctors don’t know why<br />
corneal shape differs from person to person. They<br />
do know that likelihood of developing astigmatism is<br />
inherited.<br />
Astigmatism can develop after an eye disease, eye<br />
injury or surgery. It is a myth that astigmatism can develop<br />
or worsen from reading in low light or sitting very<br />
close to the television.<br />
Astigmatism Symptoms<br />
Astigmatism symptoms may include:<br />
• blurry vision or areas of distorted vision<br />
• eyestrain<br />
• headaches<br />
• squinting to try to see clearly, or<br />
• eye discomfort<br />
If you have these symptoms you may not necessarily<br />
have astigmatism. You should visit to your ophthalmologist.<br />
A complete eye exam will determine what is<br />
causing your symptoms.<br />
