Saluda chosen for Small Town Main Streetby Barbara Tilly
The City of Saluda heard recently that it has been selected as one of five new communities participating in the N.C. Small Town Main Street program.
Saluda, Cherryville, Eliza-
bethtown, Richlands and Spencer were selected through a com-petitive application process that included 10 communities from across the state. Designation of these five new towns brings the total number of the state’s Small
Town Main Street communities to 44.

Landrum police aim to serve seniors betterby Samantha Hurst
When Landrum’s Tim Edgens took over as police chief earlier this year he wanted to discover a way to better serve the city’s elderly, disabled and homebound residents.
At first he wasn’t sure where
to look for advice on how to start such a program, but then he was directed to the Polk County Sheriff’s Office and its RUOK Program.
“I think it would be a great program for us,” Edgens said. “If we were to get something like
this going it would be a lot more work, but that is what we are here for as a department.”
Kim Pack runs the RUOK program for Polk County, which she said began in the 1990s under

had been told towns are often not selected the first time they apply,” said Saluda Commissioner Lynn Cass. “With our historic registered downtown, I thought Saluda was a good fit for the program, and I think it will help us make the town the best it can be.”
Operated by the state’s Of-fice of Urban Development, the Small Town Main Street program provides downtown revitaliza-tion assistance to selected smaller towns (under 7,500 in population) that lack the resources to pursue the N.C. Main Street program. The program began in eastern North Carolina in 2003 and was expanded to include the entire state in 2007.
“Being selected for the Small Town Main Street program gives us an opportunity to look at the best ways to help our town and its businesses thrive,” said Saluda Mayor Fred Baisden.
Participating communities re-ceive two years of concentrated, monthly on-site technical services from Small Town Main Street staff. Following the initial two-year period, communities may
choose to continue in the program, receiving more limited services on an as-needed basis.
“With help from the program’s staff, we’ll look at all aspects of business in Saluda, including income streams, rents, street fa-cades and characteristics unique to seasonal businesses,” Baisden said. “We’ll then map out a plan for improvements the town could make to promote financial health, especially in these challenging economic times.”
Baisden said the city’s board of commissioners plans to pass an official resolution in support of participating in the program at its next regular meeting on Monday, Aug. 13. After that, he said, the first meeting will be scheduled with the Small Town Main Street staff to begin the planning process.
Saluda is the second local town to be selected for the Small Town Main Street program. Tryon has been a participant since 2007.
For more information about the Small Town Main Street pro-gram, visit www.nccommerce.com/MainStreet, or contact Liz Parham, director of the Office of Urban Development, at 919-571-4900 or [email protected].
Sheriff Boyce Carswell. The department has main-
tained the program since and currently has a minimum of about 100 residents participat-ing at any given time.
“It’s not really a lifesaving program, but it is a man down program. If someone falls and can’t help themselves back up – this makes sure they don’t lie there for days without anyone knowing,” Pack said. “More than anything it’s a reassur-ance for a lot of people who don’t have family nearby.”
Pack said the system gener-ates an automatic phone call to individuals listed and prompts them to push a certain number. If the person does not answer or pushes the wrong button,
the system calls them back in 15 minutes. If a similar situation occurs again, the program calls back for a third time. At this point, if there is no answer, an alert is sent to the sheriff’s department and a deputy makes a personal visit to the home.

“It’s not really a lifesaving program, but it is a man down program. If someone falls and can’t help themselves back up – this makes sure they don’t lie there for days without anyone knowing.”
-- Kim Pack
• Landrum police(Continued from page 4)
Pack said the individual can choose the time to be called each day. She said one gentle-man has his call come in at 5:30 p.m. because he works with farm equipment and fears that a large piece of equipment might fall on him during the day. Others want early morn-ing calls to make sure they didn’t fall when getting out of bed.
Pack added that many of the participants let the department know where a hidden key is so a deputy can enter the home if the individual is believed to be in danger.
Pack said the program has been incredibly beneficial to people in the community. She said if nothing else it provides a bit of peace of mind.
“Sometimes I think we are the only people some of these individuals are talking to on a regular basis,” she said. “I
have one lady whose machine never works, but sometimes I think it’s just because she wants someone to talk to.”
There is no restriction based on age, Pack said, adding that anyone who has a medical condition or is home alone on a regular basis could receive the call.
“What do you have to lose to be on it? It doesn’t cost anything,” Pack said. “If you know that you aren’t going to be there – we just ask that the person calls in and lets us know.”
Participants are also able to give the department a laundry list of important information to keep on file, such as emer-gency contacts, key holders, if there is a DNR in place, a physician’s name, if the indi-vidual walks with a cane or a
walker and if they have pets in the house.
Landrum council members seemed keenly interested in of-fering the service to the city’s own residents when Edgens proposed the idea in July.
“It’s been a good program over there [in Polk County] a n d f r o m w h a t I ’ v e heard it has done a lot for their elderly r e s i d e n t s , ” said Landrum City Council-
man Johnny Carruth. Polk County has offered to
allow Landrum to run a pilot version of the program through its system for up to about 50 people, Pack said.
Edgens said he conserva-tively thinks 30-35 people might be interested in partici-pating in the program initially. If the actual number grew far
“[RUOK has] been a good program over there [in Polk County] and from what I’ve heard it has done a lot for their elderly residents.”
-- Johnny Carruth
beyond these expectations, he said the city might have to look into purchasing its own system.
Edgens said based on re-search he’s done, the cost of an automated call system would be about $7,500.
“If people really like it and it gets going, we’ll have to keep it going,” Edgens said.
Mayor Robert Briggs and other council enthusiastically gave their approval for Edgens to move forward with a pilot version of the program.
“Another thing it does is it builds a relationship between the police department and the citizens,” said Briggs.
Landrum residents inter-ested in participating in a pilot version of the program can call the Landrum Police Department at 864-457-7281. Anyone who wants to be added to the program in Polk County can call Pack at the Polk County Sheriff’s Office at 828-894-3001.

PAC participates in Spartanburg Water Paddle FestOn July 28, Spartanburg Wa-
ter hosted the First Annual Pad-dle Fest at Lake Blalock Park. The event was held to connect the community to Spartanburg Water reservoirs and increase the stewardship of water resources. During the event, Spartanburg Water hosted two educational paddle tours, four kayak/canoe races and two beginner paddle classes.
Spartanburg Water invited lo-cal organizations and businesses to set up booths at the event to show how they are contributing to the world of paddling and the environment. The Pacolet Area Conservancy (PAC) was invited to attend, primarily because of its conservation efforts along the North Pacolet River, the headwaters to the water sup-ply for Spartanburg, S.C. PAC volunteers provided participants with information about the im-portance of riparian buffers,
reducing runoff pollution, stream bank erosion, and protecting wa-terways and watersheds through conservation.
For more information about protecting water resources in Polk County, stop by the PAC office at 850 N. Trade St., call

The day I arrived in Tryon more than 10 years ago I spent unpacking things in my rental house and the church office. About 6 p.m., still at-tired in my clerical collar, I made a foray to the IGA for bread and pimento cheese spread to make a sandwich for my solitary supper since Pam and Isaac were still in Tennessee, and in the course of my shopping I also picked up a bottle of Beringer’s Merlot. In the course of the next morning’s activities, somewhat to my surprise, I was greeted on three separate occasions by parishioners saying, “Well, Father, I hear you like Beringer’s Merlot.” I realized then that I was not in big-city anonymous Knoxville anymore!
One of the most wonderful
things about small town life is that we can really know one another and can genuinely take care of one another as a whole community when nec-essary; and it is our intimate network of interpersonal rela-tionships and communication that makes this possible. But there is also a dark side to our rich familiarity and close-ness. When we choose to serve our personal wishes and self-interests, or to promote or oppose a particular issue, our communication too often turns into gossip, judgment and rumormongering and we cross that line from the light into the shadows, making our potentially idyllic world a place of pain and strife.

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 tongue’s 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. Madagascar’s 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 lemur’s 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. Today’s dollars, like most currencies, are called “fiat money” which means they are backed by people’s 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.Circle the words hidden in the puzzle below.

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. Madagascar’s 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 lemur’s 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. Today’s dollars, like most currencies, are called “fiat money” which means they are backed by people’s 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.Circle the words hidden in the puzzle below.

The Smithsonian Institute
A Special Thank You To All Our Sponsors!
The Smithsonian Institute is a network of museums and research and educational institutes that is managed by the United States Government, with its headquarters in Washington, D.C. It was established in 1846, after several years of debate within Congress over the funds donated for the establishment. The Institution’s namesake, James Smithson, was a British scientist and mineralogist, for whom the mineral ore smithsonite is also named after. Upon his death in 1829, his will bequeathed his riches to his sole heir, a nephew, with a provision: should his nephew die without an heir, “I then bequeath the whole of my property...to the United States of America to found at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Insti-tution, an Establishment for the increase & diffusion of knowledge....” The motivation behind the donation, which was over $500,000 (an astronomi-cal amount at the time), has been called a mystery, because he had never visited America, nor did he have any ties with the United States. Today, the establishment is run by a board of regents governed by the Vice President, the Chief Justice, six members of Congress, and nine citizens. It is home to many significant pieces of American history and has several locations, including the Postal Museum, the Portrait Gallery, the Air and Space Mu-seum, and the Natural History Museum.

Romans, he confronted that newly burgeoning church and their leaders with the destructiveness of their sometimes malicious com-munal behaviors. In his letter, Paul, by way of example, de-nounces the self-destructive practices of the pagans and cites gossip as being on par with “every kind of wick-edness, evil, covetousness, malice… envy, murder, strife, deceit, craftiness; they are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, rebellious towards parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless,” (Romans 1:29-31) and he warns those in the church who would engage in those practices that “in pass-ing judgment on another you

condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.” (Romans 2:1)
Since we are social beings, interpersonal communica-tion is essential to how we work and play together, but it is also one of the means by which we try to control our environment when we feel threatened or insecure. Gossip, in its worst manifes-tations, is usually the action of an insecure and angry per-sonality attempting through fabrication or misrepresenta-tion to secure place or stand-ing in a changing situation. It has nothing to do with the self-sacrifice that builds up and everything to do with the self-service that destroys hope for a strong community.
There is a very wise saying that has floated around for
many years which has been attributed to everyone from the Indian spiritual leader Sri Sathya Sai Baba to the re-nowned radio commentator Bernard Melzer. Melzer says it thus, “Before you speak, ask yourself if what you are going to say is true, is kind, is necessary, is helpful. If the answer is no, maybe what you are about to say should be left unsaid.”
Using that axiom as a rule in our personal lives, in commerce and in politics will keep each of us from engaging in the most dam-aging self-destructive habit any community will ever face – the debilitating sin of gossip.

The day I arrived in Tryon more than 10 years ago I spent unpacking things in my rental house and the church office. About 6 p.m., still at-tired in my clerical collar, I made a foray to the IGA for bread and pimento cheese spread to make a sandwich for my solitary supper since Pam and Isaac were still in Tennessee, and in the course of my shopping I also picked up a bottle of Beringer’s Merlot. In the course of the next morning’s activities, somewhat to my surprise, I was greeted on three separate occasions by parishioners saying, “Well, Father, I hear you like Beringer’s Merlot.” I realized then that I was not in big-city anonymous Knoxville anymore!
One of the most wonderful
things about small town life is that we can really know one another and can genuinely take care of one another as a whole community when nec-essary; and it is our intimate network of interpersonal rela-tionships and communication that makes this possible. But there is also a dark side to our rich familiarity and close-ness. When we choose to serve our personal wishes and self-interests, or to promote or oppose a particular issue, our communication too often turns into gossip, judgment and rumormongering and we cross that line from the light into the shadows, making our potentially idyllic world a place of pain and strife.

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 tongue’s 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. Madagascar’s 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 lemur’s 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. Today’s dollars, like most currencies, are called “fiat money” which means they are backed by people’s 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.Circle the words hidden in the puzzle below.

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 tongue’s 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. Madagascar’s 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 lemur’s natural enemies. Some of the oldest dinosaur fossils in the world have been found on Madagascar.

The Smithsonian Institute
A Special Thank You To All Our Sponsors!
The Smithsonian Institute is a network of museums and research and educational institutes that is managed by the United States Government, with its headquarters in Washington, D.C. It was established in 1846, after several years of debate within Congress over the funds donated for the establishment. The Institution’s namesake, James Smithson, was a British scientist and mineralogist, for whom the mineral ore smithsonite is also named after. Upon his death in 1829, his will bequeathed his riches to his sole heir, a nephew, with a provision: should his nephew die without an heir, “I then bequeath the whole of my property...to the United States of America to found at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Insti-tution, an Establishment for the increase & diffusion of knowledge....” The motivation behind the donation, which was over $500,000 (an astronomi-cal amount at the time), has been called a mystery, because he had never visited America, nor did he have any ties with the United States. Today, the establishment is run by a board of regents governed by the Vice President, the Chief Justice, six members of Congress, and nine citizens. It is home to many significant pieces of American history and has several locations, including the Postal Museum, the Portrait Gallery, the Air and Space Mu-seum, and the Natural History Museum.

condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.” (Romans 2:1)
Since we are social beings, interpersonal communica-tion is essential to how we work and play together, but it is also one of the means by which we try to control our environment when we feel threatened or insecure. Gossip, in its worst manifes-tations, is usually the action of an insecure and angry per-sonality attempting through fabrication or misrepresenta-tion to secure place or stand-ing in a changing situation. It has nothing to do with the self-sacrifice that builds up and everything to do with the self-service that destroys hope for a strong community.
There is a very wise saying that has floated around for
many years which has been attributed to everyone from the Indian spiritual leader Sri Sathya Sai Baba to the re-nowned radio commentator Bernard Melzer. Melzer says it thus, “Before you speak, ask yourself if what you are going to say is true, is kind, is necessary, is helpful. If the answer is no, maybe what you are about to say should be left unsaid.”
Using that axiom as a rule in our personal lives, in commerce and in politics will keep each of us from engaging in the most dam-aging self-destructive habit any community will ever face – the debilitating sin of gossip.

Conservation CornerBetsy Burdett
I wrote this column from Camp Glen Arden, where I was the baker on the 4th of July. The fourth was a big day of games, watermelon and fireworks at camp, and it’s fun. It was also a day when we sang pa-triotic songs all day, beginning at breakfast and ending with taps. The first song of the day was “America the Beauti-ful”; grace for breakfast was “God Bless America.”
Early in July and article ran in the Tryon Daily Bulletin about the 56 men who signed the Dec-laration of Independence. (My daddy always believed that one of the signers, George Mason, was our ancestor. It was not un-til a few years before Daddy’s death that we discovered that we are descended from James Ma-son, George’s brother who took the road south to eastern North Carolina from the port at Norfolk). Anyway, the TDB article was about the sacrifices made by the 56 men who put their lives and money on the line to announce publicly what they believed to be of value. By contrast, what I read in the rest of the paper was about people wanting something, but wanting someone else to pay for it.
Nowadays it seems like we are not even willing to give up our opulent lifestyles for the sake of our country. Is our country the people or the government or busi-ness or the land that sustains us? It’s all of it. But all I hear and read about is the economy, period. Our world is facing an environmental crisis and all we can talk about is the economy. We can’t see past the next “got to have it” advertise-ment to even comprehend what is of real value. Are we puppets of business, telling us what we want and what will make us happy? All of us know deep down inside that we are being duped, but we do nothing about it.
Now, here are the numbers from my latest pet peeve. Every Sunday we get a Hendersonville paper. Allen thoroughly enjoys
Sunday afternoons on the sofa reading the Sunday paper, the national news and local news. My mother and father did the same; maybe your’s did too. For nine weeks I weighed the news part of
the paper vs. the added advertise-ments. The av-erage per week is 6.1 ounces of
news and 15.66 ounces of un-wanted filler. We subscribe to a newspaper for the news, but we are willing to take 2/3rds of it as filler that we don’t want. Do we care that two out of every three trees used in our paper went straight to the recycling bin, or the trash? When do we, as individuals or as a society, say, “No, this is not what I want?”
On this 4th of July I have decided that I want to be part of a country that honors it’s people and the environment more than profit. I choose to wait in line at the Ingles for the person at the cash register rather than the machine. If we all did that the line would get very long and Ingles would hire more cashiers to replace those scanners. We could create jobs simply by waiting in line, together. I will choose to patron-ize local businesses and offices, where I can talk to a real person rather than listen to a recorded message that may or may not relate to my question. I choose to consume less, and try to teach real values to my granddaughter and the girls at camp, in hopes that they can see through the materialistic hype better than we did, before it is too late.
Those 56 signers of the Dec-laration of Independence knew what they wanted, and they acted accordingly. We must decide what we want, and do the same.
So far this is what we are doing, as a nation: in 2011, one in five votes taken in the US House of Representatives - fully 22 percent - involved measures to weaken environmental pro-tections. It will be good for the economy, or so ‘they’ say. Ponder that thought for a while.

LaurelHurst residents visit Green Creek WineryResidents and family mem-
bers of LaurelHurst retirement community recently enjoyed an outing to Green Creek Winery. The group tasted five different
wines and savored a plate of seven different cheeses, crackers and shrimp with a lemon dipping sauce. They also sampled several different wine-flavored ice creams
and a walnut and wine-flavored cake. The residents plan to visit all four local wineries in the future.

Young entrepreneurs did their part to bring Morris home with a lemonade stand Saturday, July 21, outside The Village Book Shoppe in Tryon. The three sold lemonade, cookies and bookmarks, raising funds from townspeople and out-of-town visitors. The money was donated to the fund that will help pay Morris’ ransom. From left are Callie Dunn, daughter of Molly and Tim Dunn of Landrum; Abby Amato, daughter of Gina Malone and Chris Amato of Tryon, and Grace Ingham, daughter of Wendy Ingham and Bill Ingham of Tryon. Todd Constance, right, was one of the many patrons. (photo submitted by Gina Malone)
