NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Senior Amber Grose scored a goal and assisted on another as the Stetson women's soccer team came from behind to tie Lipscomb by a score of 3-3 on Friday night in Nashville.
Down 3-2 for nearly 20 minutes, the Hatters (3-6-2, 1-1-1) were awarded a free kick from 40 yards out on the left side of the field with just over two minutes to play. Grose stepped up to take control of the set piece and placed a perfect ball into the box.
Sophomore Danielle Hurme was able to time her run so that she got a head on the ball and sent it past Lipscomb goalkeeper Anna Buhigas. The goal with 1:18 to play in regulation tied the match at 3-3 and kept Stetson in the game.
Neither team was able to score in either 10-minute overtime period, resulting in the draw. Both teams are now 1-1-1 in Atlantic Sun Conference play on the season after three contests.
"We were on the road and we were down a goal, and we managed to pull out a draw," Stetson head coach Manoj Khettry said. "I mean, realistically, should we have won? Yes. Do I feel like we created enough chances to win? Yes, but I was proud of earning the tie coming from behind."
The Bisons (4-5-3, 1-1-1) were able to take a very early lead in the first half, scoring in the fourth minute when Baylee Linnell found Alesondra Colbert in the box. Colbert's score made it 1-0 in favor of Lipscomb, but the Hatters countered.
A pair of freshmen hooked up over 30 minutes later to tie the match at 1-1. A cross from Ashni Deschenes found the head of Eduarda Pavao, who put her first goal of the season in the back of the net to even things up.
Stetson quickly took the lead when Deschenes was able to beat a couple of Lipscomb defenders into the box. One of the Bisons pulled on the jersey of Deschenes after getting beat, and the Hatters were awarded a penalty kick. Grose stepped to the line and beat Buhigas to give Stetson a 2-1 lead late in the first half.
"Ashni, Duda, Danielle, and Bri all came off the bench and really gave us something," Khettry said of Deschenes, Pavao, Hurme, and freshman Brianne Boldrin. "I just felt like there were so many really good performances to really lift us. We played really well, and we haven't played a poor game in A-Sun action yet."
Unfortunately for Stetson, Lipscomb scored two goals in the second half to take the 3-2 lead that lasted until the final few minutes of regulation. Molly Bray and Ellen Lundy gave the Bisons the advantage in the second half before Grose found Hurme tied the game in the 89th minute.
Stetson outshot Lipscomb 20-12 in the game, forcing Buhigas to make nine saves. Senior Victoria Troccoli finished with four saves for the Hatters. Each team recorded five corner kicks in the draw.
"I see this team coming together," Khettry concluded. "They're willing to fight for one another. They're showing some grit and some heart. I heard so many positive comments from the bench, in the halftime, in between overtimes…they are talking and acting like a team, and that's very positive for me."
The Hatters will return to action on Sunday in Highland Heights, Ky. Stetson and Northern Kentucky are scheduled to kickoff at 12:00 p.m.

EUR-USD topped at 1.1250, coming from opening lows near 1.1150. The move was apparently driven by talk that Deutsche Bank's DoJ fine may be reduced, according to Bloomberg.

The pairing is up from eight-session lows, though in the bigger picture, the pairing remains ensconced near the middle of its one-month trading band. Read More ►

Mount Pleasant seniors now have an expanded facility to enjoy. And it was desperately needed. The success of the senior center is proven in the ever-increasing membership numbers.
The five-year-old senior center was no longer able to accommodate the number of participants.
The ribbon was cut on Phase II of the center last Friday. Hundreds came out to celebrate the effort.
Since opening its doors in October of 2008, the existing 7,800 square foot senior center could barely provide sufficient space for the 1,900 members who use the facilities. The exercise room is in constant demand. Often, seniors are limited to 30 minutes of use due to the equipment waiting lines.
When East Cooper Medical Center donated the space in 2003 for the building and parking, they donated enough land to enable the town to expand the facility.
The expansion includes four new large rooms and will increase its programming to accommodate the growth in membership. Hill Construction Services of Charleston completed the work, winning the bid at $1,348,843.
The ground breaking for the expansion took place in October 2012.
Mount Pleasant Town Council member Thomasena Stokes-Marshall (for whom the center is named for) described the success of the center as a collaborative effort between East Cooper Medical Center, Mount Pleasant elected officials, town staff and community partners.
Senior coordinator Gary Jaster said that the center is up to 1,900 members. "The expansion will in effect double the size of our exercise space and provides the equipment to fill it," he said. "People had to wait to use the equipment and now this will alleviate that."
He said the exercise component of the center was a huge draw for members and the expansion will allow for not only more options but extended hours to draw in the babyboomer crowd that still works and needs to use the facility at night.
An expanded exercise studio for dance, yoga, zumba, belly danc will now offer other options as well.
"The entire expansion will enable us to offer more of a variety of classes and programs," said Jaster.
"We have equipment we didn't have before - things you would find in a regular health club.
He said before, the exercise room doubled as classroom space and now there is a designated classroom.
On any given day, the center has four paid employees on hand, as well as some part time employees. They rely heavily on volunteers to help the center run smoothly, Jaster explained.
"The seniors have a great work ethic anyway and having the volunteers here enables us to smoothly put on special events, keep the cafe clean and help people in the fitness room. It presents a more welcoming atmosphere here when people come in. We defiantly couldn't do it without them."
Program listings include:
• AARP Driver Safety Program
• Drawing, Calligraphy
• Exercise classes: Zumba, Strength Training, Pilates, Tai Chi, NIA, dancing and more
• Group games including Bingo, Pinochle, Bridge, Cribbage, Canasta, Dominoes, Mah Jongg
• Massage therapists and personal trainers
• Painting - watercolor, oil, acrylics
• Quilting, rughooking
• Social programs, including coffee talks, potluck luncheons, afternoon movies, health talks
• Wireless Internet and Computer and Tablet classes
• Wii Bowling
In addition, the Mount Pleasant Senior Center Booster Club, a separate component from the center, is designed to support the town and the center in the delivery of service to the active senior population. This non-profit group conducts various fundraising activities and contributes to the center's needs. To become a member of the booster club, call 884-6853 or 856-9732. Dues are $10 per year.
The center is located at 840 Von Kolnitz Road in Mount Pleasant. Geared toward those 50 and older, the Senior Services Center offers a variety of recreational, cultural and creative arts programs, in addition to providing health, wellness, educational and social activities. Space at the facility includes a weight room, aerobics room, cafe, prep kitchen, screened porch, card room, educational room, arts and crafts room, and therapeutic healing garden.
Senior Center membership fees are $100 per year for Charleston County residents and $200 for non-residents of Charleston County. For details, call MPRD Senior Center at 843-856-2166.

Ten years ago the town of Summerville purchased a tract of land on Cedar Street, near West Richardson Avenue. For 10 years that property has been vacant and deteriorating, according to Mayor Bill Collins.
I think its probably hurting property values around it, he said. We were getting nothing out of it.
Now something is being done with that property; a new $30 million economic development project will bring Summerville a hotel, conference center, condos and a parking garage. The town approved the project July 9, when council authorized the mayor to finalize negotiations and execute a public-private partnership agreement between the town of Summerville, the Summerville Redevelopment Corporation and Applegate & Co. of North Charleston.
The Summerville Redevelopment Corporation is a commission comprised of the mayor and council members. It is a tool used to help with redevelopment projects, said Lisa Wallace, director of administrative services.
The town is paying for the events facility and parking garage with proceeds from a 20-year revenue bond with payments being made from hospitality tax funds. The hotel and condos will be paid for by the developer.
Collins said the town will own the conference center and the parking garage being built on town property. It will take 18 months to two years to get the whole project completed.
Everybody Ive heard from has been very positive, he said.
Hospitality taxes are the 2 percent tax the town collects on prepared foods and beverages, and the tax is designed to promote tourism in Summerville something that Collins said the hotel, events center and garage will help generate.
For the next 20 years the town will be paying $600,000 to pay off the construction of the parking garage and events center. Collins said the town receives $2.5 million a year in hospitality taxes, so about 25 percent of the taxes will be spent on the towns share of construction.
We still have money left to do projects with and well be doing other things, Collins said.
The developer is buying additional land where the hotel and condos are being installed, and the town will receive taxes from that. The town will also receive business licenses from the hotel, restaurant and parking garage (because the developer is going to buy 55 parking spaces inside the garage for the condo residents).
Were probably going to end up getting almost $600,000 a year in revenue, equal to what were going to be paying out in hospitality taxes for our share of the construction, Collins said.
Collins added over the past year Summerville has acquired a number of restaurants that help generate revenue places like Smashburger, Newks Eatery, Mellow Mushroom and Carolina Ale House. Collins anticipates that with more businesses the hospitality tax will continue to grow, and the percentage of what is being used to fund the hotel construction project will shrink.
We put four elements together: the parking garage, hotel, condo and events facility, Collins said. Together it makes for a viable project that will generate all this revenue and answers the needs that people have said they want addressed in Summerville places to live in Summerville, a hotel downtown, more parking and places for events downtown.

Monday, January 27, 2014
Coyotes first appeared in South Carolina about 30 years ago and continue to expand greatly in numbers. Coyotes roaming residential neighborhoods have been spotted all over Mount Pleasant and on the islands.
Though traditionally believed to be adapted to life in open areas, coyotes have expanded into most types of habitats. While they do well in agricultural communities, their relatively high tolerance for human populations allows coyotes to exist in most areas of South Carolina. This includes mountainous regions, swamps, dense forests, as well as suburban areas.
And according to wildlife experts, well probably have coyotes in our midst from here on out in some form or another.
According to Jay Butfiloski, Certified Wildlife Biologist with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources coyotes are opportunistic feeders, preying upon rabbits, rodents and other small mammals, supplementing their diet with fruits, berries, and insects. In other words, domestic pets could be in danger. Pet predation is usually due to the territorial nature of the coyote and lack of an alternative prey base in suburban areas.
While municipalities prohibit pet owners from allowing their pets to roam unattended, many domestic cats do. This puts them at great risk of being eaten.
In Wakendaw, a neighborhood off of Mathis Ferry Road, eight cats have been reported missing and one dog.
Butfiloski said this could very possibly be the work of coyotes because they do not leave anything behind, as in a carcass.
Facebook fans of the Moultrie News were asked to share their stories about coyotes. Former Mount Pleasant resident Ashley Corbett Freeman said that while they dont live in the area anymore, information being disseminated about their state-wide inhabitancy is correct,
We live in Clover, SC which is 4 miles from Kings Mountain. There is a coyote den in the woods on the back side of our property. It is down in a ravine of a dried up riverbed. They are predators, they do not just hunt for sick or wounded animals. They have chased my daughters in broad daylight so now they cant explore the woods without one of us along.
Others surmised that development was pushing the animals towards residences.
However, Butfiloski said there is no truth to that. Coyotes do not require X amount of space. Development may contribute to visibility perhaps, but theyve always been there.
He explained that the animals learn to exploit small wooded areas. They can easily travel paths and marsh areas. They exploit what they can - even broken landscapes, he said. Residential landscapes are very favorable to them when looking for food, and places to hide.
And, the natural green spaces that citizens insist on having in their communities provide just the right area for coyotes to hide and feed. It is great for these animals. They thrive in changes of habitat.
Jeannie Acsell a Wakendaw resident worries that if something isnt done to remove the coyotes from residential areas, serious danger could come to a human.
Butfiloski said that DNR does not have trappers they are not a regulatory agency or a nuisance wildlife control agency.
That is not what the agency is geared toward or funded for, he said.
But there are private companies that can handle that kind of work.
He cautioned going that route because you can spend a lot of time and a lot of money in a small footprint trying to trap coyotes. And, it will likely be all for nothing. He cited two reasons for this. First, coyotes travel great distances at any given time and secondly, they will likely come back if relocated.
There is plenty of green space and land connectivity for them to roam. Even if you trap every one in Mount Pleasant today there is no guarantee that in one month more wont come too, he said.
Connie Best, also of Wakendaw agreed that coyotes are not neatly packaged in one single area.
Over the Christmas holidays she heard them outside of her home and described them as quite active. This time of year is their breeding season.
Their noises are similar to dogs but distinctively different.
She heard them not only in the early hours of the morning but during the early hours of the evening as well. This concerned her due to the fact that people may still be out and about, and susceptible to an attack.
Best called the mayors officer, animal control, DNR and the police department. She said the message from the mayors office is that they are not able to trap and remove coyotes nor could they pay for it.
Butfiloski cautioned against anyone paying for such a service.
Normal nuisance control is easily accessible. But trying to trap coyotes is very time consuming and labor intensive. It takes specialized knowledge to catch coyotes, he said.
He said that once a homeowners association or a municipality agrees to trap and remove, they will be expected to do it every single time someone sees a coyotes because youve now set a precedence. Thats a slippery slope for an HOA because theyd be expected to continue. And the reality is that coyotes are here to stay. You can not rid a place of them and simply trying is challenging and expensive.
He said the biggest thing communities can begin to do, is accept the fact that they will have to live among coyotes and educate themselves and their neighbors.
Subrban urban coyotes are tougher to deal with, but it is doable. He said that in the city of Chicago several thousand coyotes live there. It doesnt take a whole lot of green space for the animals to adapt, he said.
For the most part, coyotes avoid people and activity. The key is to keep it that way, he said.
Thats why they mostly roam at night.
Snee Farm resident Bill McIntosh said Otis the Wonder Dog (his pet) has been running outside at night and barking at something. Our back yard borders Longpoint Road. I noticed the first Coyotes here about four years ago. If you go into Snee Farm, and get on Farm Quarter road, turn right on Cassique Provence and then take the left onto Plantation Road, you will round a corner that on your right lets you see all the way out to the dock house at Boone Hall. But on the left you can shine your bright auto lights down the fairway. I have see the eyes of coyotes on the fairway, he said.
Butfiloski said that people want to make it as unpleasant as possible for coyotes to be around people.
Should you come upon one, he said to throw things (like a rock or stick), yell and make noise. Ideally you want to make it uncomfortable for them to be around. If that doesnt work back away slowly. It is similar to walking upon a strange dog. Dont turn and run or you might trigger a response. They are predators, he explained and they expect their prey to run.
He said they have a natural built in distance and they know how far away they must be to get away from you. They will retreat if you come forward.
They do not see people as food. That is not something they would traditionally go after.
If you are walking a dog keep it on a shorter leash and do not let it roam. In a lot of cases, a coyotes is simply curious because after all, it is another dog.

Incredible point guard of the New Orleans Hornets. He is hands down the best point guard in the league, because the Hornets would be NOTHING without CP3. A multi-dimensional threat who can not only become a prolific scorer himself, but turn his teammates into dangerous scorers as well, and for a point guard he is a surprising force on defense. Always an MVP candidate. Talent like this is not seen very often.
Chris Paul is a generational point guard who's talent we have not seen since Magic Johnson.

I wear these around the water and with the fit I don't need a dummy strap. I ordered the darkest copper lens which is phenomenal on the water for clarity and polarization.
Kaenon customer service is also very good, as I had to have the lenses replaced on another pair which got scratched.

Kaenon lenses are top notch. They are hands down my favorite. I got these for Christmas mainly for cycling. I have yet to wear them riding, but I love my other Kaenons. This frame and lens were a bit bigger than I was expecting, but I think they'll still work well for my small face. The wrap design seems like it will stay on well, and I think they will vent quite nicely.
Notice how every Kaenon has a 5 star rating? That is because they are amazing! They fit SO well and the lenses are second to none. If you are performance oriented and your vision is important to you, do yourself a favor and give Kaenon a try. This pair fits a small to medium face size and has a perfect lens shape and size, it is ventilated too. Love the Pearl White too - very nice finish.
Did I mention that the lenses are amazing????
No offense, but part of the reason every pair of Kaenons has 5 star reviews it because you post--sometimes multiple--5 star "reviews".
I'm not sure how kosher it is for the company rep to post 5 star reviews. Answer questions on the products with as much positivity as you want, but perhaps lay off reviews of products in which you have a financial stake.
What are the measurements?

Thursday, June 12, 2014
A young Mount Pleasant-based sailing yacht captain recently coordinated a rescue at sea while sailing from Antiqua to Bermuda. Captain Bill Haynie, 27, was several days out of Antiqua, helping deliver a 67-foot Discovery sailboat named More Magic to Newport, Rhode Island, in May on a routine delivery after racing in Antigua. Several days into the transit, in deteriorating weather, Haynie and the boats permanent captain, Sean Heffernan of Ireland, were in the cockpit at 9:30 a.m. when the VHF radio started crackling.
We heard some squelch coming through on the VHF, in a pattern consistent with a radio call, but were unable to make out any speech, Haynie says. We had not been in any contact with any other boats since departing and could not see anyone on the horizon. We turned the radio up a bit and stood by it to see if anything came in more clearly. Another squall passed over us, and in the middle of it, Heff (Sean Heffernan) heard another transmission which he thought was a mayday call. It was still full of static, but he was sure enough that he thought it worth investigating.
For the next 20 minutes, the crew of More Magic was on the radio trying to establish contact with whomever was transmitting the call, all the while scanning the horizon with binoculars. Soon, they noticed a small sloop on the horizon.
The sloop had only a piece of its mainsail up, and appeared to be sailing toward us from the north, which is odd, because nobody (in the Caribbean) sails south this time of year, said Haynie. More Magic got closer to the sloop, made radio contact, and confirmed that it indeed was putting out a distress call. The captain of the sloop, named WaveCrest, had suffered a fall headfirst through the companionway, suffered a severe head injury, and as a result was experiencing violent seizures and was totally incoherent. Making matters worse, the boat was out of control as its inexperienced crew dealt with the situation.
Captains Haynie and Heffernan both have tens of thousands of miles of ocean-sailing experience, which was fortuitous for the distressed sloop. After communicating with the distressed vessel, the two captains decided to put Haynie and crew member Christy Clemenson aboard the sloop. Haynie would take control of the sailboat while Clemenson would use her medical training to assess the injuries to the captain of WaveCrest. Clemenson found the captain to have pupils permanently dilated, a rapid pulse, and his extremities were shaking and tingling. It was obvious that he needed to be transported for immediate medical treatment, and given that his condition had deteriorated in the three days since his fall, Haynie and Clemenson felt that three more days at sea might prove fatal.
We relayed the information back to Heff on More Magic and immediately began devising a plan, Haynie said. Heff contacted Bermuda Radio Dispatch via More Magics satellite phone, and was put on the line with a local doctor, who confirmed Clemensons assessment and opinion that the victim should be taken to shore immediately. Bermuda Radio also informed them that they were out of range of Bermuda services (550 nautical miles north), and the closest point of land was Tortola (270 miles south), which fell under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Coast Guard station, San Juan, Puerto Rico. The Coast Guard told them there was a Chinese container ship named ShanHi 45 miles to the northeast.
It made sense to Heff and me to proceed with all speed toward the ship, Haynie recounts. It could make about 15 knots, WaveCrest could make 5-6, leaving a rendezvous time of 2.5 hours well before sunset.
It was at this point that captains Haynie and Heffernan found themselves in a debate with the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard did not think the victim could be transported up to a much taller container ship and therefore wanted them to sail south toward the fly zone, to reach helicopter range. They decided to heed the Coast Guards instructions, so they turned around and sailed south toward Tortola with the container ship overtaking them from behind, with the intention of standing by in case of further distress, help facilitate an air rescue, or to collect the victim in the case that an air rescue was not possible.
After three to four hours sailing in this direction, it became clear to Haynie and Heffernan that sailing south toward the outer limit of the helicopters range meant that the best case scenario was a nighttime transfer of the victim, either to the container ship first or perhaps even from the sailboat directly to the chopper. Also during this time, the stricken captain of WaveCrest became extremely agitated and had to be physically restrained. He was actively hallucinating and showing signs of a completely different personality, according to his wife. Given the deteriorating situation and looming darkness, Haynie and Heffernan made a command decision to buck the Coast Guard, turning toward the container ship on an intersecting course in order to make a daylight transfer.
Haynie said, I felt reasonably confident that I could get the victim on board the container ship without incident, so we made the call to contact the ship, set up an intersecting course and started preparing WaveCrest for the transfer maneuver.
At this point, after Christy Clemenson had spent most of the day as well as her energy tending to the injured victim down below in the pitching, smaller vessel, the decision was made to transfer her back to More Magic and bring over crewmember Meaghan Taylor. Taylors more extensive deckhand experience would be needed for the dangerous maneuvers beside the container ship. Haynies backup plan if this transfer didnt work was to return to sailing toward the fly zone for a nighttime rendezvous.
The two young sailboat captains then began communicating their plan to the captain of Chinese container ship, a task made difficult by the fact that its captain and first officer spoke very little English. Onboard WaveCrest, the sails were dropped, the motor started, everything on deck was stowed away or lashed down, and Haynie and Taylor improvised and rigged a sling for the victim, comprised of Taylors crew lifevest, which unlike those on WaveCrest, had proper lifting straps, and the boatswains chair. Over on More Magic, Heffernan and crew prepared their boat for a man overboard (MOB) rescue in case things went wrong during transfer and the victim went into the water. Haynie was worried about the risk of losing someone overboard during the hairy maneuver, and felt that More Magic was more maneuverable and better equipped to handle an MOB situation than WaveCrest.
Bill Haynie grew up sailing in Charlestons busy commercial harbor, so he is no stranger to the size and mass of container ships. All his sailing life, he has purposefully avoided sailing anywhere near the behemoths or their intended course. He was now about to take a small 40-foot sloop, pitching and rolling in heavy seas, so close to one that the sailboats rigging would bang against the ships gunnel and all this with a fellow sailors life at stake.
Heff and I thought perhaps the ship would have some appropriate gear or means to perform such a rescue transfer, Haynie said. We soon realized we were wrong. All the ship had was its pilot-boarding ladder, which was deployed amidships. It was a rope ladder with heavy wooden rungs, and its swinging motion was alarming. Haynie communicated to the captain of ShanHi for the ships crew to toss a line down to WaveCrest as he maneuvered as close as possible. Meaghan Taylor was to fasten the line to the makeshift sling they had devised for the victim, and when the signal was given, begin hoisting him as quickly as possible up the side of the big ship.
My main fear was that the victim would somehow get caught between the sailboat and the ship, Haynie said. If that were to happen, the victim could be instantly crushed. The moment came for Captain Bill Haynie to go against all his instincts and experience and purposefully put the sailboat up against the heavily rolling ship. I was afraid the ships hull would catch the rail of WaveCrest and roll us right under it, Haynie recalls.
On his second pass, he managed to hold the sailboat right at the ships boarding ladder for about 20 seconds. About 20 of the ships crew appeared high above, all yelling simultaneously and indistinguishably to the sailboat. The first line they tossed down was too small. The second line was so large it could have injured anyone it landed on. Finally, a workable line was provided, and Taylor tied it off to the victims sling while two crew from WaveCrest raised the victim up onto the boarding ladder. The ships crew pulled him up as Haynie bore away from the ship for the safety of both the victim and the sailboat.
The saga did not end once the victim was on the ships deck. The captain of ShanHi then radioed that the victim had become agitated and violent, his crew having to restrain him. He was concerned about liability issues for restraining him. Haynie and Heffernan told the captain it was nothing they hadnt already had to do, and it was all for the well-being of the victim and was, most likely, saving his life. He was placed in the ships infirmary and ShanHi sailed toward Tortola for a rendezvous with the Coast Guard helicopter.
Then Haynie was left with a decision about what to do with WaveCrest. The captain had been its only experienced sailor, his wife had only moderate experience. After some deliberation and consoling from the crew of More Magic, they decided they could manage to get themselves the 200 or so miles to Tortola, and the U.S. Coast Guard was on standby. Bill Haynie and Meaghan Taylor transferred by dinghy back to More Magic, which continued to Bermuda.
When asked if he knew the ultimate outcome for the victim, Haynie said they were told he was taken to a hospital in Puerto Rico and was being treated there.
After having sailed more than 50,000 ocean miles and three trans-Atlantic crossings as a professional captain, Bill Haynie said, Approaching that huge container ship in rolling seas under those circumstances was the most terrifying thing Ive ever done.

The consequence of a hot curry.
The origin of "bumfire" was from a variation on a Shakespeare sonnet by my friend Paul, in relation to another friend, barling. "Shall I compare thee to a khazi, say? Thou art more curried, and more turbulent. Rough winds do shake the Barling cheeks of gay, and bumfire's wrath doth linger in the gents.."

Similar to its bon fire counterpart, a bum fire involves a pollutant-ridden fire cast in an open steel barrel trash can (make up of trash container is flexible), that a multitude of of skeezy homeless personnel can find warmth, scavenging light, or a cooking surface to decoct the day's loot over. Also known as a hobo heater

TAHOE/TRUCKEE, Calif. - Sierra College Insights presents "Emotional Intelligence: The other kind of Smart" with Christopher Old at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 8.
Emotional Intelligence (EI), the ability to recognize and control emotions, is a characteristic that affects our ability to succeed in all areas of life including personal relationships, careers or school.

The key components of EI include self and social awareness and self and relationship management. Teen, parents and grandparents are encouraged to attend together or on their own.
"Positive close personal relationships are one of the key ingredients to living a fulfilled life.

Fun and challenging experiences during 'Emotional Intelligence: The other kind of Smart' will fuel our discussion and bring the concepts to life. We will explore ways to improve emotional intelligence and flourish."

I am not about to hate on some great opportunities I've been offered or, ahem, considered for in the past. But, it is very frustrating when the initial email greeting is flattering and "I love your blog I read it all the time and it was so cute what you wrote about (fill in fluffy summary of the latest post I wrote)" and yet I have to remind them that I have a 5 month old baby. And she'll need to be with me at all times. And then they aren't cool with that.
It's nice to hear that someone likes my blog! But it's even nicer to know someone is being honest. Don't pretend you know all about me and read everything I write if you really don't. I'd much rather someone say Hey, I'm new here but I can't wait to find out more. Or I just stumbled upon your blog and am interested in working with you.
It really doesn't have to be much. Just truthful. And real.
I don't want to seem ungrateful for some great offers I've had come my way, but it is disappointing when I get excited about something that we think you and your blog are perfect for! and then find out I don't qualify for some reason or the other. If only they could have figured that out before getting my hopes up or having me ask hubby to request vacation time.
So, I was so superly duper excited when I received the awesome and warm invitation to visit Hallmark's World Headquarters with a small group of fabulous bloggers for an exclusive Mom e-vent. Not only is it Hallmark, whom I already love, but there was something different about this email that gave me hope. It was personal, and the gal from Fleishman-Hillard acknowledged my first priority of being a Mom.
And offered for me to bring my older kids, too!
I especially loved this part : I'm sure Ivy isn't leaving your side at the moment, so we hope you'll feel free to bring her along!
I know it can not be easy for the wonderful people (many are Moms and Dads, too, and many are not) in public relations to reach out to the busy and harried and crazed and often ranting Mommy Blogger. And they certainly aren't lacking in learning (or fear) from others' big mistakes in the past.
How confusing it must be- as I am only speaking from my own personal wants- when what I strive for or think appropriate might be totally different than the next Mom Blogger.
We are a sensitive sort, but for good reason. And, yes, we are Moms. We have kids. Flying off to events and fun escapades is great. But what about the children?
They want to hear my opinions and create a buzz within our community, yet doing so takes me away from the very responsibility they even want me for in the first place. I have to be Mom.
I want to be Mom.
My rule of thumb is that I will not do anything or go anywhere unless my husband can be home to take care of the kids. Thankfully he has ample vacation time (and is eager to use it here and there) for when I might get to jet off somewhere fun in the name of my blog.
I understand that not every event and blogger outreach can accommodate children, and- let's be honest- I like it a lot when I get a Mom's night out or even weekend away. Just please, as someone that does not own a breast pump (scary!) and desires to keep her baby close at all times, be sensitive to nursing mothers.
I've decided to only take Ivy with me to the Mom-e-vent @ Hallmark next month, but I've already heard that some of the other bloggers are bringing their older kids. I am really excited to be reunited with some of my favorite online friends and new ones I've yet to meet. And how fun to be able to see them in their Mom Blogger element: laptop and/or iPhone in hand, ideas in their head, and child by their side.
Maybe we really can do it all... anything is possible.

The Gibbes Museum of Art's commitment to contemporary art is celebrated in the special exhibitions "John Westmark: Narratives" and "Beyond the Darkroom: Photography in the 21st Century" on view April 4 through July 13. These exhibitions examine the creative process of photography and painting in contemporary, Southern art. These will be the final special exhibitions on view before the museum closes for renovations. "Since the museum opened its doors in 1905, supporting contemporary art has been central to the Gibbes' mission. Our spring exhibitions further this mission by showcasing the great artistic talent of our region today," says Pam Wall, Curator of Exhibitions.
John Westmark, winner of the 2012 Factor Prize for Southern Art, weaves imaginative narratives into his large-scale paintings. He explores the human figure in dynamic ways, through his innovative use of text and paper sewing patterns collaged on canvas. Westmark's paintings depict strong courageous women, some portrayed as stoic martyrs and others as warriors engaged in conflicts of rebellion. "The Narratives" exhibition features a series of new work created specifically for the Gibbes installation.
"As a product of the American South and its rich tradition of storytelling as a vehicle to impart a moral lesson or social enlightenment, I am interested in the role of stories and folklore in modern life. This work references stories from a broad spectrum of humanity and translates them into a visual narrative structure guided by the schematics of the store-bought sewing pattern. Domestic garment making is often looked upon as an intimate affair passed from one generation to the next, but once the pattern is used, it is tucked away or discarded. These paintings repurpose the garment pattern and its nostalgic aura into a storytelling template," says John Westmark.
"Beyond the Darkroom: Photography in the 21st Century," examines a variety of photography-based works acquired over the past 10 years for the museum's permanent collection. Since the invention of photography in 1839, the medium has constantly evolved with the development of new technologies. In the 21st century, photographic processes have shifted from the darkroom to the digital world, bringing new possibilities to the medium. Ranging from the text-and-photo-based works of Carrie Mae Weems to the digital montages of Stephen Marc, the 2009 Factor Prize winner, this exhibition showcases the great innovation in photography today.
Tickets are $9 for adults, $7 for seniors, students and military, and $5 for children ages 6-12.
For more information or to purchase tickets go to www.gibbesmuseum.org/events or call 843-722-2706 ext.21.

A piece of cloth attached to the back of your pants or jacket covering the lower portion of your back. Usually screen printed with punk rock logos, insignias, and covered with conical or pyramid studs. Worn by punk rockers of all kinds. Extra bonus points are rewarded if your butt-flap attaches to a studded vest with pyramid or conical studs. The first known sighting of a butt-flap was as ABCNORIO in the lowe east side of New York city in 1989, although it is suspected to have originated in London at an earlier date.

TAHOE/TRUCKEE, Calif. - I have been told my child should be evaluated for Attention Deficit Disorder or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and then put on medication. I do not believe there is anything really wrong with my child and I am worried that if I do not give my child the recommended medication she will have a harder time in school and in life. What should I do?
Concerned Parent
Dear Concerned Parent,
First let me say that you are not alone. I am asked this question regularly from parents who are told by teachers, doctors, coaches and extended family members their children need help in the form of a prescription pill. Unfortunately, many children today are misdiagnosed as having ADD or ADHD and then medicated. There are many theories on the causes of ADD and ADHD, I will address three of these, sleep deprivation, diet and the wrong learning environment for the child. There are several different routes that I encourage parents to take first before they resort to prescription medication to alleviate ADD and ADHD symptoms in their children.
Get a good night's sleep
First, take a good look at your child's sleep schedule. Many children (and adults) who look as if they have ADD or ADHD are actually sleep deprived. In fact, the symptoms of ADD and ADHD look almost identical to those of chronic sleep deprivation. I have found most parents are unaware of how much sleep their children truly need to function at their optimum levels, and then are shocked when they realize how little sleep their children are getting compared to how much they truly need. Most adults have had the experience of being so tired that they cannot shut down and fall asleep. Children have the same experience.
However, many children (and many adults) have not learned how to self soothe in order to fall asleep when they are tired. I am consistently amazed by how many children have late bed times, get less than eight hours of sleeps a night, who fall asleep to the TV every night or who play video games until the wee hours of the morning (even on school nights). It is our job as parents and caretakers to help the children in our care learn how to fall asleep and stay asleep. I recommend children not have TVs in their rooms and screen time be greatly decreased and not happen at night. The light from the monitors often increases brain wave activity and can make it harder for people to fall asleep and stay asleep. To determine how much sleep your child should be getting for their age, and some suggestions for how to teach your children to sleep, I highly recommend the book "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child" by Marc Weissbluth.
You are what you eat
Second, carefully evaluate your child's diet. Most people know that a well balanced diet is important for a healthy body. However, many people still do not consume enough fruit, vegetables, or protein. Instead their diets are made up mostly of carbohydrates. Unfortunately, many children are heading to school in the mornings without having eaten anything for breakfast, or worse, they start their day having eaten sugary cereal and drinking an artificially colored and sweetened drink. There are studies that show ADD and ADHD symptoms often decrease when the amount of protein that people eat increases. There is some controversy surrounding the effects of sugar, artificial colorings and pesticides in conventionally grown foods. However, many people believe when they eliminate artificial colorings and additives and decrease the amount of sugar their children consume their children's behavior radically changes for the better.
A change of learning enviroment
Third, evaluate your child's learning style. Today's classroom sizes are enormous and teachers are pressured to teach to the tests the government requires. As a result, many children are bored and are not fitting into the dominant education system. As a result, these children act out then get diagnosed with learning disorders or ADD/ADHD, and then they get medicated. The teachers are not to blame, the current system is failing and students are often are taking the weight of the collapsing system. We label them, then we medicate them and the big drug companies win. In fact they are banking on your child being prescribed their medication. For some children, I recommend looking at ADHD as Attention Directed at a Higher Dimension and evaluate whether the system is failing your child or if a different learning environment would better serve your child. If so, consider an alternative school, a charter school or a home schooling environment. Many children previously thought to suffer from ADD/ADHD thrive with out medication when their academic environment changed.
So before you resort to prescription medications in an attempt to help your child, try evaluating his or her sleep schedule, their diet and their learning environment and where possible make some of these changes first. Hopefully, you will be amazed at the results and your children will have healthier and happier lives with out the need for prescription medication.

This is what wakes me up at three in the morning.
I lie in bed, in the middle of the night, depressed.
Dryer sheets.
I can't do laundry without dryer sheets and it's starting to pile up. I dread the thought of going to Target again, in the morning, as all week has been a constant repeat of this time. Why do we even need dryer sheets? Is there a way to make my own? Should I be doing something more eco-friendly? I need to look this up.
At three in the morning.
Yesterday I felt pretty, in a blue dress and leggings. But in my car's side view mirror I caught a glimpse of myself and literally didn't even recognize her. And normally the car mirror is like, the most flattering of all. I note, in my head, thirty-four is the age I officially look and feel old. I look like that woman on Oprah, who drank Big Gulps of Diet Coke every day and Dr. Oz fixed her up and she looked young again. But I only drink water and unsweetened tea.
I get over it and am convinced that I still feel pretty. But then I start to be all sorry for myself, and wish I was beautiful for my kids, for on the arm of my husband in front of his coworkers and friends, and for my own parents. And for the guy that brings in the carts at Target. And for the girl at the checkout who could have been me fifteen years ago.
This is not really about my appearance. This is not about how badly I need to do something with my hair already. Or how I've let myself go- where? I don't know but Lord knows I'm not here. It's something I can not put my finger on, so I lie awake worrying about dryer sheets and the bitterness that is sneaking in about unfair things I can't talk about, stuff I thought I had forgiven and buried but it keeps un-earthing itself in my present.
I want to go to sleep. I want to wake up the old me with my new wisdom. I want to only be thankful, as I rightly should be. I want to run to something. I want to remember the fricking dryer sheets.

It started with a pin, then another, and then another.
Eight in all Friday as Wando wrestling steamrolled West Ashley to win its second straight Class 4A Region VII championship.
Wando (25-9) won by pin in more than half of the nights matches to earn a perfect 79-0 road victory in the regular season finale. The win caps a perfect run through region play and an outstanding month that included a 13-3 record, a tournament win and two third-place tournament finishes.
In December, we just didnt wrestle well, Wando head coach Adam Schneider said. As a coaching staff, we knew we could do better. They worked hard and I think it really came together with our first win in January. We were able to build off that and carry the momentum through our region matches.
Last seasons championship was Wandos first from Region VII and this seasons repeat has Schneider confident the wrestling program is headed in the right direction. He credits the offseason work in summer camps and team-building exercises. He speaks highly of his staff that put in extra time to build the team from the youth level to the varsity. Its that feeling of family and camaraderie that he says has helped change the culture of the program.
That family that our coaches have created filters down to our team and is one reason that they are so close and fight for each other, Schneider said. Our guys put in the work and they take pride in what theyre doing. The way were wrestling, I think were capable of beating any team on the right day.
The Warriors are in familiar position as region champs and hosts of the first two rounds of the SCHSL playoffs. Schneider and his wrestlers still remember the feeling of losing in the first round last season and watching Ashley Ridge celebrate in their home gym. He remembers the look on their faces as they watched the second round from the stands and says he hopes they use that as fuel when they step on the mats this postseason.
That got under our skin a little bit, Schneider said. Thats something that sticks with you. So were ready to go ahead and wrestle. This year, we want to do our best to get through those first two rounds and avoid that feeling again.
Wando will face Region VIII No. 4 seed Beaufort in the first round Feb. 8. Beaufort defeated Wando, 54-22, Dec. 11 in Mount Pleasant but Schneider expects a much more competitive match this time around.
Were a completely different team than we were in December, he said. We know its going to be a tough match. The playoffs are tough. We know that region, all four of their teams are good teams. Were wrestling with a lot of confidence right now. We just have to be ready to go.
Wandos 14 starters gear up for the team playoffs with the individual region tournament beginning Wednesday at Cane Bay. The top three from each class advance to the Lower State individual tournament, beginning Feb. 21.

The Stetson women's basketball team captured the no. 2 seed for next week's Atlantic Sun Conference tournament with a 74-60 victory over Mercer in the regular season finale Saturday afternoon at the Edmunds Center.
Stetson will play seventh-seeded ETSU in the quarterfinals on Wednesday at 6 p.m.
Sasha Sims scored a career-high 27 points on 9-of-15 shooting as the Hatters (21-8, 14-4 A-Sun) set a school-record for most conference victories in a single-season.
Victoria McGowan added 12 points and 11 rebounds for her 13th career double-double, while Jama Sharp pulled down a career-high 13 rebounds.
In an intense, physical battle which may be a precursor to the style of play coming in the postseason, the Hatters led by as many as 13 points in the first half before taking a 33-27 lead into halftime.
"Mercer is a much improved team, they are much better than they were when we played them earlier this season," Stetson head coach Lynn Bria said. "We kind of kept a 10-to-12 point lead for a while, but Mercer decreased it right before halftime.
"I thought our response in the first five minutes in the second half was really good," Bria added. "We got two quick steals and four points and kind of got more of a cushion there."
Both teams traded baskets throughout the second half, but the Hatters never let Mercer get any closer than eight the rest of the way.
"Sasha is playing at such a high level right now and really carried us today," Bria said. "She did such a great job on their post player and that's hard work. I thought Shanasa did a great job on Precious Bridges, and we had a lot of other kids step up as well."
Bridges came into the game as the leading scorer in the Atlantic Sun, averaging over 17 points per game. With a strong defensive effort led by Sanders, Bridges finished with just two points and was held without a field goal in 13 attempts.
"We knew if we held her under her scoring average, we would have a good chance at winning," Sanders said about Bridges. "My main focus was to rebound, play defense, and then the offense picked up from there."
Stetson shot 42% for the game and outrebounded Mercer (19-10, 13-5) 41-38.
Notes: Stetson led the points in the paint category 42-28 ... The Hatters hit a three-point field goal for the 100th consecutive game ... Stetson committed fewer than 10 turnovers for the second straight game ... Sims topped 20 points for the third straight game ... Seniors Ashley Buis, Ashley Dennis, Victoria McGowan, Janelle Mills, and Shanasa Sanders and team manager Doron Thomas were honored before the game ... Stetson won 14 home games for just the second time in school history (also 14-1 in 2000-01) ... The full tournament bracket will be released tonight (Saturday).

Led by a pair of two-goal performances by seniors Alyssa Welsh and Kait Jones, the Stetson women's soccer team (5-6-2, 3-1-1) took care of visiting USC Upstate (3-7-3, 0-3-1) by a score of 4-1 on Friday evening at the Athletic Training Center.
The decisive victory improved the Hatters' record to 3-1-1 in Atlantic Sun Conference play, placing Stetson in a tie for second place with Mercer. The two teams, with 10 points each, trail only defending champion Florida Gulf Coast, which holds 13 points.
"Any time you can score a number of goals like we did, I think they feel pretty good," Stetson head coach Manoj Khettry said. "As a coaching staff we were kind of disappointed that we gave up a goal, let them back into it. They made it difficult for us, but we were fortunate enough to respond with some goals."
Respond they did. The Hatters scored three second half goals, two by Jones and one by Welsh, to earn the squad's first four-goal match since defeating Florida Atlantic 5-2 on Sept. 8 of last season. Stetson outshot USC Upstate 26-7 for the match, and recorded six corner kicks to the Spartans' one.
"The mentality is good," Khettry said. "I think the mentality is that we want to be an A-Sun Tournament team. We know we have a lot of games left, we know we have difficult games left, but we're going to try our best to accomplish that feat. I'm really proud that they've bought into that."
The Hatters came out of the gate swinging as Welsh scored off of an assist from sophomore Jenna Premo in the 12th minute. Premo stole the ball from a Spartan defender and played it to Welsh, who beat one defender and put it past goalkeeper Sarah Plantz to give Stetson the early lead.
After dominating the first half, Upstate came out hungry to start the second, evening things up at 1-1 on a nice set piece from just outside the box. Kenzie Major ran over the ball before Rebecca Sanzsole played it to her dead on at the top of the box. Major beat Stetson keeper Victoria Troccoli to tie the game just five minutes into the second half.
Stetson responded quickly though, as Jones scored her first goal of the night just over four minutes later. Freshman defender Alyssa Swett made a long run down the right sideline – as she did all game long – and played a ball across the box from the endline. Jones controlled the pass and beat Plantz to give Stetson the lead once again.
It was in the 69th minute that senior roommates Jones and Welsh connected to give the Hatters a 3-1 advantage midway through the second half. It was Welsh crossing the ball into the box from the endline this time, finding Jones, who one-touched a shot past goalkeeper Ellen Bright in the 69th minute.
With just over 10 minutes to play in the match, Welsh made her final mark on the contest, receiving a long through ball from sophomore Mara Keomanivane and beating Bright on a breakaway to give Stetson the 4-1 victory.
"I'm happy for them," Khettry said of Welsh and Jones. "A lot of what we have been doing has been geared towards individuals taking responsibility in the front third. It's great for [Jones and Welsh]. It's great for their confidence, but also, that's the way you want to go out as a senior. You want to go out having played your best, and having helped your team get to where they want to be, so I'm really, really happy for those two."
With two goals and an assist on the night, Welsh now leads the Hatters with nine points on the season (four goals, one assist). Jones, meanwhile, is tied with senior Amber Grose for second on the team with eight points (four goals).
Stetson will continue the weekend home-stand on Sunday, playing host to ETSU at 1:00 p.m. at the Athletic Training Center.
