    You Have More Choices Than You Think!

    representative from the Isother-mal Planning and Development Commission (IPDC), who can create a model to help plan-ning board members determine where ridgelines can be viewed from different points in the county.

    The planning board was given a recommended UDO from the UDO committee on May 9. The planning board will work on revisions to the UDO and send a recommended draft to the Polk County Board of Commission-ers, which will be required to hold a public hearing prior to adopting the document.

    The UDO is one docu-m e n t t h a t combines all of the countys o r d i n a n c e s . Committees have been work-ing on amendments to several individual ordinances in the process of developing the UDO.

    The most contested ordi-nance has been the countys mountainside and ridgeline protection ordinance (MRPO), which originally prohibited any commercial development at elevations above 1,650 feet, which includes all of Saluda Township.

    In recommending the draft document, the UDO committee approved eliminating elevation requirements in the MRPO special use district. It recom-mended instead that the county apply restrictions on land with slopes of 30 percent and steeper.

    Speakers attending the meet-ing last week voiced their opin-ions on whether the planning board should change the MRPO or leave it as is with the eleva-tion requirements.

    Rene McDermott, a Polk County commissioner and a UDO committee member who voted against eliminating eleva-tions in the MRPO, said she

    is concerned about the entire UDO. She said one thing that stands out greatest in her mind is the protection of our moun-tains. She said it appears that too much has been taken out of the MRPO (with the latest draft) and said she hopes the planning board will seriously consider, even if the board decides to go with a slopes approach, reinstat-ing some protections such as for grading work in the sloped areas.

    Some of that was taken out and I dont know a good reason why, McDermott said. I think the 30 percent that was chosen

    doesnt have any basis in scientific fact and is proba-bly not the best standard for Polk County.

    Hal Green of Saluda said he has not seen any geologi-cal evidence to support the

    countys previous restrictions based on elevations of 1,650 feet and 2,200 feet.

    These are highly restrictive provisions for property above these elevations and justifica-tion has not been made clear, Green said.

    He said protection comes with a cost and that the countys restrictions have made life pret-ty tough for Saluda residents. He said he hopes that when the planning board works on the UDO it will consider the fact that protection has to be balanced by peoples property rights and peoples ability to make a living.

    William Day said he finds the UDO to be an assault on liberty in that it takes the land away from the people. He said with the ordinances the county is changing the value of the land and to say they are doing it for protection measures is only a few peoples idea.

    Margery La Rue said she agrees with McDermott. She

    UDO(Continued from page 1)

    (Continued on page 5)

    I think the 30 percent [slope criterion] that was chosen doesnt have any basis in scientific fact and is probably not the best standard for Polk County.

    -- Renee McDermott

  • mentioned going to Avery County earlier in her life, which was the first time shed heard of a mountain and ridgeline protection ordinance after a 10-story building was con-structed on Sugar Mountain.

    This set off a public out-cry, La Rue said.

    She expressed concern about 8,000-square-foot buildings being allowed on mountains.

    Could you imagine com-

    ing out of Polk County High School with now fabulous views covered with metal buildings? La Rue asked. I think if Id gone to high school here I would have never left this area.

    She asked the planning board not to overturn the cur-rent MRPO regulations.

    Patricia Gass said she feels for the planning board and the work ahead of them. She said shes lived here almost 10 years and cannot count how many times shes heard from people

    UDO(Continued from page 4)

    that they dont want another Chocolate Drop Mountain.

    Fred Baisden said he spent hours with the Henderson Coun-ty Fire Marshal, who said no one has been killed in a landslide. Baisden said he was referring to a comment made by McDermott during a prior UDO meeting about issues such as people be-ing killed in landslides, such as in Henderson County, is what Polk is trying to avoid.

    Baisden also said Polk of-ficials have mentioned similar regulations in Jackson County,

    and Jackson County is in the process of undoing regulations there because of the negative economic impact.

    Krolak said the planning board will take all public com-ments into consideration.

    The planning boards sub-committee is scheduled to meet Thursday, June 7 at 5:30 p.m. The full planning boards next regular meeting will be Thurs-day, June 14 at 5 p.m. Planning board meetings are held in the upstairs meeting room of the Womack building in Columbus.

    The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to

    the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

    The human Tongue

    a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!

    The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongues roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all

    taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.

    The Island of Madagascar The African Island of Madagascar, located in the Indian Ocean, is approximately 250 miles away from the African mainland. The country closest to the island is Mozambique and the two countries are separated by a body of water in the Indian Ocean known as the Mozambique Channel. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, measur-ing almost 1,000 miles in length and 350 miles wide at its widest point. The Capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo. The Republic of Madagascar also includes several smaller, adjacent islands. The island has several different climate zones which include the tropical rains of the northwest, the dry southern area, and wet and hot western area. The island has mountains, ridges, and valleys that separate these different areas. The tallest moun-tain found in Madagascar is Mount Maromokotro, which is 9,436 feet above sea level. The people of Madagascar are considered to be members of the African community, but their origins are more closely related to Indonesia. They are referred to as being Mala-gasy--a name that refers to both the people and the native language. The other official language is French. Madagascars primary industry is farming; rice is the primary food staple. Vanilla and coffee are produced for export; Madagascar produces more vanilla than any other country in the world. Today, Madagascar is a multi-party republic, but it was at one time a French territory. Perhaps the most famous inhabitants of Madagascar are not people, but the animals that are native to the island. The lemurs of Madagascar are small, tree-dwelling primates that are not found naturally in any other habitat in the world. Another animal, found only on the Island of Madagascar, is the fossa. The fossa is a meat-eating animal, much like a large cat. It is one of the lemurs natural enemies. Some of the oldest dinosaur fossils in the world have been found on Madagascar.

    Money, or currency, is something that is used as a medium of exchange. Over the centuries, money has come in all different shapes and sizes. In the United States today, the dollar is the primary form of currency in circulation. Until recent decades, most types of monies have almost always been made from, or backed by, a precious metal. This means that the coins themselves have been made from silver or gold, or that there were precious metals in a reserve to back up the worth of the money. In 1900, the United States Government passed the Gold Standard Act. For every paper dollar that existed, a certain amount of gold was kept in storage by the U.S. Government. In 1933, the Unit-ed States began moving away from the gold standard, because it restricted the number of dollars that could be produced. Todays dollars, like most currencies, are called fiat money which means they are backed by peoples faith in government and not metals. Every country uses some form of currency. Many countries have dropped their own form of currency in favor of using the American dollar. This is known as dollarization. In Europe, the primary form of currency in 16 major countries since 1999 is the euro. The United Kingdom still uses the pound system. Canada and Australia call their currencies a dollar like the United States, but they are separate from the U.S. system. Other coun-tries have different names for their money. Brazil has the real; Mexico has the peso; China has the yuan; Japan has the yen; Russia has the ruble; and South Africa has the rand.

The country closest to the island is Mozambique and the two countries are separated by a body of water in the Indian Ocean known as the Mozambique Channel. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, measur-ing almost 1,000 miles in length and 350 miles wide at its widest point. The Capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo. The Republic of Madagascar also includes several smaller, adjacent islands. The island has several different climate zones which include the tropical rains of the northwest, the dry southern area, and wet and hot western area. The island has mountains, ridges, and valleys that separate these different areas. The tallest moun-tain found in Madagascar is Mount Maromokotro, which is 9,436 feet above sea level. The people of Madagascar are considered to be members of the African community, but their origins are more closely related to Indonesia. They are referred to as being Mala-gasy--a name that refers to both the people and the native language. The other official language is French. Madagascars primary industry is farming; rice is the primary food staple. Vanilla and coffee are produced for export; Madagascar produces more vanilla than any other country in the world. Today, Madagascar is a multi-party republic, but it was at one time a French territory. Perhaps the most famous inhabitants of Madagascar are not people, but the animals that are native to the island. The lemurs of Madagascar are small, tree-dwelling primates that are not found naturally in any other habitat in the world. Another animal, found only on the Island of Madagascar, is the fossa. The fossa is a meat-eating animal, much like a large cat. It is one of the lemurs natural enemies. Some of the oldest dinosaur fossils in the world have been found on Madagascar.

    Money, or currency, is something that is used as a medium of exchange. Over the centuries, money has come in all different shapes and sizes. In the United States today, the dollar is the primary form of currency in circulation. Until recent decades, most types of monies have almost always been made from, or backed by, a precious metal. This means that the coins themselves have been made from silver or gold, or that there were precious metals in a reserve to back up the worth of the money. In 1900, the United States Government passed the Gold Standard Act. For every paper dollar that existed, a certain amount of gold was kept in storage by the U.S. Government. In 1933, the Unit-ed States began moving away from the gold standard, because it restricted the number of dollars that could be produced. Todays dollars, like most currencies, are called fiat money which means they are backed by peoples faith in government and not metals. Every country uses some form of currency. Many countries have dropped their own form of currency in favor of using the American dollar. This is known as dollarization. In Europe, the primary form of currency in 16 major countries since 1999 is the euro. The United Kingdom still uses the pound system. Canada and Australia call their currencies a dollar like the United States, but they are separate from the U.S. system. Other coun-tries have different names for their money. Brazil has the real; Mexico has the peso; China has the yuan; Japan has the yen; Russia has the ruble; and South Africa has the rand.

    The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to

    the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

    The human Tongue

    a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!

    The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongues roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all

    taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.
