The Savannah Area McDonald’s Operators Association, which stretches through southeast South Carolina, has announced their first class of recipients in their local scholarship program and is awarding more than $50,000.
Local McDonald’s Owner/Operators have been developing a way to support this annual scholarship program for about five years, and are now able to award over $50,000 in scholarships per year to eligible employees and their dependents. Participating restaurants range from Darien to Vidalia, Ga., to Point South and Hampton, S.C. Each recipient will receive $1,200 towards their education, and can be used towards room and board, books, and more.
“Getting an education is very important in today’s world. Whether they come back to us with their business degrees, or begin their careers elsewhere, we’re proud that they got their start with us at McDonald’s,” said local Owner/Operator Michael Eggers.
Eligible employees and their dependants can apply online through their local restaurant’s website. Once their applications are submitted, they are reviewed by a third-party company that administers the program. Requirements to receive the scholarship state that the employee must be working in their restaurant for at least three months, work an average of 20-hours per week, have a minimum GPA of 2.5, be at least a high school senior, and have plans to attend an accredited institution.
“One of our scholarship recipients has already left for school, but they’re aware that they are part of our first class of scholarship winners,” said Laura Eggers. “We’re very pleased we can help our employees accomplish their goals, we wish them well as they embark on a new journey.” Michael and Laura Eggers are a husband and wife franchisee-duo in the Beaufort Area.
Festival of Trees celebrated the kick-off of its 22nd year with a Christmas in July event celebrating the many volunteers who make the Festival possible.
As part of this event, the Festival is proud to announce the Honorary Chairs of this year’s Festival: Mr. Rick Toomey and Dr. Linda Hawes.
The Festival of Trees, benefitting Friends of Caroline
Hospice, will be held December 6 – 11 at the Charles L. Brown Neighborhood Activity Center (formerly the Greene Street Gym). As Beaufort’s premier holiday event, the Festival includes a showcase of beautifully decorated trees, a grand Opening Reception with silent auction, a gourmet and gift shop and daily lunches. During these remarkable five days, the gym is transformed into a holiday wonderland,

where simply stepping through the doors puts you in the holiday spirit.
In the past 21 years, Festival of Trees has raised almost $800,000 for Friends of Caroline Hospice. The Festival is Friends of Caroline Hospice’s largest fundraiser, helping them provide free care and volunteer services offering hope, encouragement and comfort to our friends and neighbors who live with life-threatening illness.
Rick Toomey and Linda Hawes are excited to serve as the Honorary Chairs. They explain, “We are excited to be the Honorary Chairs of the 2010 Festival of Trees. The Festival provides critical funds enabling Friends of Caroline Hospice to continue to provide dedicated, caring and compassionate support to the patients and families who need their services. At the same time the Festival connects so many organizations in creating a festive event that helps kick off the holiday season. It is an honor to be involved with this year’s Festival of the Trees.”
Rick and Linda relocated to Beaufort from Rocky Mount, North Carolina two years ago. Rick is the CEO at Beaufort Memorial Hospital, and Linda is physician working as a hospitalist at Beaufort Memorial Hospital. They have three adult daughters.
The Festival is also pleased to announce this year’s Volunteer Chairs: Mr. and Mrs. Bo Mitchell. The Mitchells will lead the many volunteers who devote their time to make the Festival a success. Having been volunteers for the Festival in numerous capacities for many years, the Mitchells appreciate the effort that goes into making the Festival a success. ““The Festival of Trees gives our community an opportunity to celebrate its own creativity and to celebrate together the Christmas
season,” says Kathy Mitchell. “It’s also a way for the our community to give back to Friends of Caroline Hospice, an organization that gives so much to the community through its programs, services and care.”
Bo is a native Beaufortonian and partner in Mitchell Bros. Contractors, and Kathy is a military transplant and a librarian at the Beaufort County Public Library. With two daughters, Sally and Katy, actively involved in the Festival, Bo and Kathy consider the Festival of Trees a family affair.
The organizers of the Festival also announced other exciting news at the Christmas in July event:
Trees and Auction Parties Trees are available for sponsorship, and the Festival’s hallmark Auction Parties are already under way. More information is available on the Festival’s newly revamped website, www.festivaloftreesbeaufort.com, or by calling 525-6257. Information is also available on the Festival of Trees Facebook page.

Military Appreciation Day Military Appreciation Day will be Wednesday, December 8. Military servicemen and women, and their families, will receive free admission during this day. “This is one small way we can thank our military community for all they do to serve our country,” said Kathy Mitchell, Volunteer Chair.

annual showcasing of a beautiful handmade quilt generously donated by the Sea Island Quilters. The spectacular 2010 quilt made by the loving hands of Judy Cain, Patti Van Buren and Carol Jayne. The quilt will be on display at many of the Beaufort area festivals and events.

The Knights of Columbus, a Catholic Fraternity established in 1882 by Father Michael J. McGivney, recently completed their 2009 Survey of Fraternal Activity. The report showed that, even in an economic crisis, during last year this international organization of more than 1.8 million men donated over $151 Million to charitable organizations - trumping their 2008 total by over a million dollars. Likewise, the survey showed that volunteer hours have increased by almost 500,000 hours to a total of 69.3 million man hours of service.
Locally this year, the Beaufort Council has donated over $3,400 to St. Peter’s parish and school for various ministries, educational field trips, and the historic chapel renovations as well as helping to reduce the debt on the new church. But the knight’s charity is not limited strictly to their own faith. In addition to these parish donations, through the “Sentenced for Life” campaign, the knights raised over $9,500 (three times what they raised last year) for the Fr. Michael J. McGivney Maternity Home in Bluffton operated by Room at the Inn of the Lowcountry.
Likewise, with their Operation HOPE Tootsie Roll Drive the knights raised $6,400 (over twice last year’s total) for local citizens with developmental disabilities.
The Michael O’Connor Council (Beaufort Chapter) of the Knights of Columbus held its Annual Installation of Officers last month. The Rite of Installation was conducted for the incoming Officers: Grand Knight - John Stump, III; Deputy Grand Knight - Terry Buquet; Treasurer - Mark Essman, Financial Secretary - Michael Giller, Chancellor - Don McVay, Advocate - Reulito Gonzalez, Warden - Michael Porubcan, Recorder - Dana Scaglione, Inside Guard - Paul Fontenot, Outside Guard - Vincent Brown, Trustee 3rd year – Roy Spurlock, Trustee 2nd year - Frank Pastore, Trustee 1st year - Esteban Ponce . Exiting Grand Knight, Dana Scaglione was on hand to accept accolades and “pass the gavel” to the incoming Grand Knight, John Stump. John and Terry have big plans for a very active fraternal year since the council is celebrating their 50th Anniversary in Beaufort.

The Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce Visitor & Convention Bureau released today that the Beaufort/Port Royal/Bluffton’s cost of living index for the second quarter of 2010 was 105.5, just slightly over the national average of 100 and up from the first quarter measure of 104. Grocery items were up this quarter to an index of 110.8. Housing costs rose from 102.1 to 104. Utilities had the highest index at 114.5. The cost of living index is administered
by the American Chamber of Commerce Researchers Association (ACCRA). The Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce Visitor and Convention Bureau, which collects the data, used the USC-Beaufort intern program to collect the data for the second quarter.The ACCRA cost of living index measures regional differences in the cost of consumer goods and services, excluding taxes and non-consumer expenditures, for professional and managerial households in the top income quintile. The composite index is based on six components – housing, utilities, grocery items, transportation,
health care andmiscellaneous goods and services. The Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce Visitor & Convention Bureau is a non-profit membership-based organization working to build a healthy economy and improve the area’s quality of life. The Chamber assists in developing and supporting an economic, political and social climate favorable to businesses throughout theBeaufort Region.

In the first 6 months of 2010 there were 7 permits issued by Beaufort County for construction of new homes on Lady’s Island. The following chart provides a comparison of the number of building permits issued for this year as compared to the last 6 years.
Lady’s Island Building PermitsYear Mid Year End of Year2004 147 2042005 111 204 2006 93 159 2007 30 712008 22 522009 16 212010 7 12 (projected)
These numbers continue to paint a grim picture for the housing construction industry for not only Lady’s Island but Beaufort County in general. It is worthy of note for this same period ( Jan-June 2010) the Burton area was the location of 17 new housing permits and the Town of Port Royal issued 29 single family housing permits. This would appear to indicate a shift in single family housing construction from Lady’s Island to the Town of Port Royal and Burton area. Indications of this shift occurring were noted prior to the downturn in the economy. One of the reasons for this shift might be less expensive prices for undeveloped property combined with a very real effort on the part of the Town of Port Royal to simplify their permitting procedures.
The City of Beaufort, with 9 single family permits issued, at mid year has already matched the equivalent total number of similar permits issued by the City in all of 2009. Here again this may indicate an increased attraction for urban location of new homes vice suburban or rural. Only time will tell.

“Some people call it the sane version of Method acting,” said instructor Gail Westerfield, who is preparing to teach a class in Meisner Technique at ARTworks. “The class will be an introduction to the fundamentals of Sanford Meisner’s work, a practice that trains actors to be fully ‘in the moment’ on stage. Through a series of exercises, both experienced and inexperienced actors will learn what Meisner called ‘living truthfully in imaginary circumstances.’”
Class work will focus on relaxation and preparation, as well as creating character and building relationship with a scene partner. No previous training is required.
Westerfield has acted and directed for more than 30 years and trained intensively in Meisner Technique as an intern at Actors Express in Atlanta as well as extensively on her own since. When she’s taught this class in the past, she said, “The students really ‘got’ it. The beauty of this technique is that you can learn so much about yourself and the art of acting, even if you’ve never set foot on a stage before.”
A free showcase October 22 at ARTworks will provide an opportunity for friends, family, and fans of great acting to see the students perform the monologues and scenes they have worked on in class.
Students must be age 16 or over. Classes will be Mondays from 7-9 pm, August 23 – October 18. (There will be no class September 6). ARTworks is at 2127 Boundary Street (the K-Mart/Bi-Lo shopping center) in Beaufort. Cost is $150. Payment plans are available, but $50 is required at the first class. Class size is limited. To register or ask questions, call 843-271-0593 or e-mail [email protected].

LePrawn James has announced his decision to the question that everybody wants to know. This fall he will be bringing his talents to Lady’s Island to join the Sea Island Rotary.
The 25-year-old former Cleveland Crustacean said that leaving Cleveland was his biggest challenge but after racing there for 7 years he feels he has the best opportunity to win a Shrimp Race championship with the Sea Island Rotary.
Besides the history, attractions, culture and outdoor activities Beaufort has to offer, LePrawn says he is also joining the Sea Island Rotary for all the things they have done and what they will do with the proceeds of the Sea Island Rotary Charity Shrimp Race which is being held on October 2, 2010 in conjunction with the Beaufort Shrimp Festival located at the beautiful Beaufort Waterfront Park.
LePrawn will be joining all of the outstanding members of the Sea Island Rotary to make sure they win year after
year. Having a great race is so important to the Sea Island Rotary because 100% of the net proceeds go back to charity. The proceeds will benefit The Wounded Warrior Project, CAPA and Beaufort Children’s Charities. You can also visit our website for a detailed description of all the beneficiaries of this charitable event.
Anyone can adopt a shrimp and help LePrawn reach his goal. Each shrimp adoption is just $10.00. You can adopt as many shrimp as you would like. They can be adopted online at seaislandrotaryshrimprace.com or by visiting one of our Shrimp Adoption Centers located at the Lowcountry National Bank, Wachovia Bank, Bundy Appraisal & Management, Beaufort Chiropractic, and Levin Gilley & Fisher.

Historic Beaufort Foundation has hired Julia Paige Wylie Good to lead the organization as its executive director. Good, currently the executive director of The Blue Grass Trust for Historic Preservation in Lexington, KY, joins HBF September 13th.
Good received her Master’s Degree in Historic Preservation with honors from the College of Design at the University of Kentucky, Lexington, in 2006. Her undergraduate degree in anthropology and sociology was received from Centre College, Danville, KY in 2004. Raised in Dallas, TX, Good graduated from Episcopal High School of Dallas.
Good was recognized with the Dean’s Prize in Historic Preservation for exemplifying excellence for her Master’s project, “In
Good Faith: A Case for Adaptive Reuse of Religious Buildings,” and for her sustained leadership and professional promise. She developed a comprehensive list of adaptive reuse projects throughout Kentucky for publication.
“Julie’s commitment to adaptive reuse was just one of her skills that informed us that she is the right person for the job,” said Pete Palmer, chairman of HBF’s board of trustees. “Beaufort has a plethora of historic buildings that are underutilized, and could be turned
into new uses. It goes hand-in-hand with preservation as the ultimate recycling.”
Good replaces former executive director Evan Thompson who resigned last spring to become executive director of the Preservation Society of Charleston.
303 Associates, LLC is pleased to announce the expansion of SuZara’s Kitchen and Dancing Dogs Yoga to 1211 Newcastle Street in Uptown Beaufort’s Newcastle Square. Both businesses are relocating and expanding to meet customer demand.
SuZara’s Kitchen opened their first retail store last summer, although owner Susan Zara was already well known for providing delicious desserts and baked goods to Beaufort’s best restaurants. SuZara’s will be moving across the street to increase the retail space and offerings. Watch for SuZara’s new location this fall and continue to visit her current location until that time
Dancing Dogs Yoga opened earlier this year in Beaufort Town Center to great success. Owner Shelley Lowther wanted a larger classroom space, as well as a retail area, to continue to expand course offerings. We are pleased that space at Newcastle Square fit exactly what Shelley was seeking.
According to Shelley, “Our karma has been good this year! We’re excited to grow
and offer our students this beautiful new practice space, as well as access to yoga and fitness related products. 303 Associates has been supportive and helpful through our growth spurt, and we’re looking forward to growing with them for many years to come.”
Dick Stewart of 303 Associates, says, “Both of these local businesses are growing and expanding despite the recent economic turmoil because they provide superior customer service and value and because they fill a need in the Beaufort market area. We have enjoyed our relationship with both businesses and are thrilled to play a part in their continuing success. Their presence in Newcastle Square and U p t o w n Beaufort is another reason people shop and dine in Uptown Beaufort.

Dr Grace eliminated silver fillings from the practice 12 years ago. Some of our cases can be viewed on our website, www.genegrace.com.
Our staff is the greatest. Terry Johnson, one of our hygienists, has been in the practice for 26 years.
We feel it's important to cover after-hour dental emergencies for our patients. Many a weekend, we're at the office with dental emergencies (i.e. athletic injuries to children).
Our field of expertise is general dentistry. We do refer some procedures to specialists as we feel the patient should be in the hands of someone who does that procedure day in and day out. For example, you deserve more than a few weekend courses when it comes to having implants placed.
Our staff will work with your insurance to obtain your maximum benefits, many times resubmitting claims if we feel you've been treated unfairly. We have a finance plan where payments can be made with no interest for as long as a year. Dentistry doesn't have to be out of your budget.

Building on last year’s outstanding successes, Beaufort Academy prepares to start its new year with a new trimester schedule, increased time in academic classes and new staff. Students return to BA Aug. 30, two weeks later than usual, because of the shift to trimesters.Joining the faculty at the private, college preparatory K-12 school on Lady’s Island are:· Betsy Rhatigan, returning to BA to teach Middle School English· Tom Savage, Middle School History and Upper School English· Kim Handy, Middle and Upper School French and Spanish· Kelly Newbauer, Geometry, Algebra I and Algebra II· Tony Gonzalez, Lower School Spanish and Upper School Art· Stephanie Sullivan, Lower and Middle School Music· Connie Ambrose, Middle and Upper School Health and Wellness· Bradi Dinkins will teach third grade with Nancy Compton· Laura Brummer will teach fourth grade· Karen Nuelle will help manage Interim projects and services. The BA Graduating Class of 2010 exemplified the school’s emphasis on academics as 19 graduates amassed more than $2.2 million in scholarships. For instance, Nathaniel Rollings, a National Merit Finalist, received acceptances to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and the Air Force Academy, as well as a four-year Army ROTC Scholarship to MIT. He chose West Point. Also, Beaufort Academy juniors and seniors last spring took 68 Advanced Placement Exams and scored a school record passing rate of 75 percent – with “passing” being a score of three or higher. Most colleges and universities grant credits for scores of 3 or higher. Among the BA Advanced Placement students, 21 percent scored 3; 32 percent scored 4; and 21 percent scored 5. This is nine points higher than the BA Advanced Placement results in 2009 and better than any year since the school has monitored AP results, Headmaster Randy Wall said. The later-than-usual school year start enables BA to most efficiently use its new trimester calendar, Wall said. The trimester system provides a three-week “interim” period of various learning options between Thanksgiving and Christmas. This year’s first trimester will end before Thanksgiving and when students return, they’ll be in a three-week session of special learning opportunities called Interim. Students will participate in local
internships with area businesses, agencies and professionals, develop community service projects, attend special career exploratory classes, work with artists and historians, and travel on extended field trips that couldn’t be arranged during the regular school year.
Likewise, sophomores and juniors will take their school-sponsored tours of colleges and universities during the Interim. Though all students will have opportunities for travel and enrichment, students who desire additional academic assistance will find BA faculty ready to help during the interim.
Another change for this school year: Beaufort Academy students will have six class periods per day, down from last year’s eight periods. Each core academic period will last 60 minutes, 15 minutes longer than last year. Electives and supplemental classes will be 45 minutes.
This provides more exposure to the core academic classes that provide the foundation of the college-prep curriculum, Wall said. In exchange, most school-day study halls are being eliminated and an after-school study hall option added. “We had an exceptional year with our Class of 2010,” Wall said, “and our goal is to build on that success, to expand our college-prep services and to ensure that each child who graduates from Beaufort Academy is accepted into their preferred college or university. We have an incredible team to help reach that goal, from the teachers to our guidance and college application expert to our support staff.” Beaufort Academy continues to accept applications for all grades, from its pre-kindergarten three-year-old program through 12th grade.

The American Board for Certification of Teacher Excellence (ABCTE) has named Jeremiah Young, a science teacher from Beaufort High School in South Carolina, as the recipient of its inaugural National Teacher of the Year Award.
Young will be presented with the award at a ceremony in Washington, D.C. on Friday, August 27 with Dr. Carl Harris, Deputy Assistant Secretary with the U.S. Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, as well as members of the ABCTE staff and board of directors.
“Being chosen as the recipient of ABCTE’s National Teacher of the Year is an honor,” said Young. “There are many great teachers in this profession that deserve to be recognized for their accomplishments inside and outside the classroom. To be chosen as the national recipient is humbling. I am still young in the profession, so receiving this honor will only encourage me to work harder to fulfill the expectations that I feel this position holds, for the remainder of my teaching career.”
Principal nominations, a public vote and interviews with each finalist were used to determine the award recipient, with parents, students, colleagues and other members of the community casting over 9,500 votes during the public voting portion.
“The entire selection process for ABCTE’s Teacher of the Year has made me aware of the number of people that
believe in me as an educator,” explained Young. “I am encouraged by the initial nomination by my principal—that he thought well enough of my teaching practices to offer my name as a candidate for this prestigious award. I am also greatly moved by the outpouring of support from my family, friends, and community, through the online voting process. The votes that I have cherished the most are from my former students and the parents of students I have taught. They are the ones who have firsthand experience with me as a teacher.”
“We are beyond thrilled with the response we have received for our first Teacher of the Year award and with the caliber of the candidates. All of us at ABCTE are honored and inspired knowing that these teachers are out there making a difference,” said ABCTE CFO & Acting CEO Giovanni Cozzarelli.
ABCTE offers a teaching certification program that is accepted for public schools in ten states: Florida, Idaho, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Utah. To-date, the organization has certified nearly 2,500 individuals.

The South Carolina Department of Education released ACT college entrance scores today. Seniors in Beaufort County continue to make positive growth. All high schools made gains in composite scores from 2009 to 2010.
The district’s overall ACT composite score was 20.7, which exceeded the state’s composite score of 19.7. Of particular note, Beaufort High School made a significant gain from 18.6 in 2009 to 20.3 in English this year.
District Superintendent Dr. Valerie Truesdale stated, “We provide practice on both the ACT and SAT for students so they will be prepared for which ever college admissions test best showcases their abilities.”
Chief Instructional Services Officer Dr. Sean Alford stated, “We are encouraged by the ACT results that our students are consistently being more prepared for the national standard of college readiness.”
The ACT is the college entrance exam accepted in about half of the states, while the College Board’s SAT dominates the other half. A record 17,342 public high school graduates in SC took the ACT for 2010, up from 12,159 in 2006.
The ACT is a curriculum-based achievement exam designed to measure the academic skills that are taught in schools and deemed important for success in first-year college courses. The SAT is an implied learning test that measures how students think based on their experiences both in and out of the classroom setting.

breakwaterFall is historically the start of the school year, and that also applies to
medical school.
There are twenty-four 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year medical students currently in Beaufort (with 8 new faces added this year), rotating through the Beaufort Memorial Hospital, the Carolina Coastal Center, and the Coastal Carolina Medical Center among others.
They are there getting early exposure to clinical medicine as part of a program with A.T. Still University School of Osteopathic Medicine in Arizona (ATSU- SOMA) with the sponsoring institution for South Carolina being the Beaufort-Jasper-Hampton Comprehensive Health Services, Inc. where Roland Gardner is the C.E.O.
Last weekend Gardner held a lovely welcoming reception for the new and returning students at Saltus. It was hosted by Faith Polkey, MD, MPH, the Lead Regional Director of Medical Education & LaFrance Ferguson, MD, who is the Chief Medical Officer for BJHCHS, along with Administrative Assistant Keshia Bryan.
For the majority of the eight new students, this is not only their first time in the Lowcountry, but their first time in the South. So if you see them around town in your travels, be sure and give them a big warm Beaufort hello. Some have only been here a few days I am told (and probably still trying to get use to this humidity!).

Back in April, the Lunch Bunch dined at Shoofly Kitchen in Uptown Beaufort (1209 Boundary Street). Remember how much we loved the service and the homemade meals prepared just right? Our Lunch Bunch experience at Shoofly was one of the best!
Well, now you can patron Shoofly for the hardiest meal of the day, breakfast. That’s right; Shoofly is now serving morning meals to get your day started. Roseanne and David Steele, owners of Shoofly, have been serving breakfast for a little over a month now, opening at 7am and diving right into lunch at 11am.
And, the breakfast is just as good as the lunch! Our girl Roseanne is quite the chef, and she’s created some delicious items for what most Beaufortonians agree to be the most important meal of the day.
To start, Roseanne brought out an Apricot Braid for the table to share. The cream cheese-filled pastry was served hot with apricots oozing over the sides. If you’re in the mood to splurge, order this. The Braid flirted with our taste buds so much; we could have easily forgotten men and dreamed about this sweet tartlet all day. It was that good. Sorry guys.
The Lunch Bunch ran into two of Shoofly’s most loyal customers while we were there. When I wrote the Shoofly “Lunch” column months ago, Rick Butler sent me a praising email about the write-up and Shoofly. He was so grateful that Shoofly was featured, because he considered the restaurant to be the best in town. Well, coincidentally, Rick and his wife, Carol, were at Shoofly eating breakfast for the first time when we arrived. They were equally impressed with breakfast. So, instead of “Spotting” Rick and Carol, I decided to include them in the column. They are Shoofly regulars for goodness sake.
April and I arrived first, so we got early dibs on our orders. She decided on the Breakfast Burrito, which included scrambled eggs, sausage, onions, peppers and cheddar and asked for fruit as her side dish. What a filler. She had to carry half of it home in that cute little to-go box Shoofly proudly lays claim to.
I opted for the Crab Cake Benedict with a side of home fries. My poached egg and crab cake on an English Muffin, topped with spicy hollandaise won for favorite dish. That’s right folks, Wendy finally won. This meal is a MUST-HAVE at Shoofly
Elizabeth ordered a unique dish. She likened to the Shrimp Hash, which came with 2 eggs over medium and a side of fruit. Lizzy Lou was very impressed! Like most of our dishes, hers was gone pretty quickly!
Before Kim even chose an entrée, she noticed sliced tomatoes offered as a side. She didn’t hesitate to ask if they were local. And indeed, Roseanne acknowledged that they were from St. Helena. So, Kim requested the 3 egg, cheese and bacon omelet with a side of the Lowcountry’s favorite stack of savory, red fruit… the summer tomato.
Lastly, Christina heard around town that Shoofly’s French Toast was to die for. So that’s what she ordered, and her recommendations were right on. Cristina’s words were,” Oh my gosh, this is incredible!” So the table agreed, the French Toast is another MUST-HAVE at Shoofly.
The Lunch Bunch had yet another pleasant experience with the Steele’s at Shoofly! There’s always something new going on at the Boundary Street eatery.
For instance, Shoofly will be hosting Chef Anderson, former owner of A Matter of Taste and Whitehall on August 31. The famed local chef will offer a cooking class, beginning at 6:30pm and will show students how to make use of readily available ingredients in the local grocery stores and markets to prepare delicious and appealing meals. It should be a lot of fun.
Stop by Shoofly, or email Roseanne at [email protected] for more details. You may also call her at (843) 379-9061 if you’re interested in the class, which is $35 per person.
And don’t forget, Shoofly also caters special events. They’ll even customize their cute boxes to match your event with identical color palettes and themes.
Thanks so much Roseanne and David for the invitation to dine with you for breakfast. Your hospitality is always superior, and your cuisine is dynamite!

I had the pleasure of having coffee with Dr. Stuart Smalheiser and his lovely wife, Veronica at City Java over the weekend. The two, brand new to Beaufort, are happy to be in the Lowcountry and eager to begin careers in their respective fields.
Veronica started August 9th at Beaufort Memorial Hospital as a Registered Nurse in the Emergency Department. Dr. Smalheiser started August 1st at Lowcountry Medical Group and is on staff at BMH as Cardiologist. He also performs interventional cardiology procedures at MUSC Hospital in Charleston, where he is on faculty as an Assistant Professor.
The couple met in Jacksonville, FL where Dr. Smalheiser received his Cardiology training from the University of Florida. Veronica was employed as an ICU nurse in the Coronary Care Unit. They were married June 27th, honeymooned in Antigua and quickly moved to Beaufort to start work.
So far, they adore Beaufort. They moved to Habersham, and quickly became familiar with the creeks surrounding the Broad River. Since Stuart is originally from Miami, and Veronica from Jacksonville, they both love the water! They enjoy kayaking and try to launch their boats as often as they can to navigate the waters behind Habersham and learn about the natural wonders of the Lowcountry.
The couple also shares a passion for cooking. Veronica is an excellent baker. In fact, most of the registry items for their wedding were baking utensils and cookware. Dr. Smalheiser insists, “She’s the best baker I know!”
And Dr. Smalheiser is no stranger to the culinary arts. He makes his own dry rub for BBQ that includes secret ingredients even his own wife doesn’t know. “But, she’ll figure it out one day. She’s such a good cook,” he explains.
After Dr. Smalheiser proposed to Veronica, they prepared their first Thanksgiving
together for both of their families. Veronica baked all the desserts from scratch, of
course. And Dr. Smalheiser cooked a traditional turkey. “It’s the first time I’ve ever enjoyed turkey,” says Veronica.
The Smalheiser’s are really down to earth. They are professional, yet determined to make Beaufort their home for a long time.
“What I like so far about Beaufort is the fact that I can interact with patients in familiar settings, at Saltus or Wren, or even Wal-Mart,” explains Dr. Smalheiser. “There is a good sense of community here, and everyone is so nice!”
And, as Beaufort continues to grow, the medical community is becoming more and more equipped to address the needs of the expanding population.
Dr. Smalheiser, in addition to other cardiologists in the community, have a 1-year goal to bring a STEMI program to Beaufort Memorial Hospital. STEMI is an acronym for ST-segment elevation
myocardial infarction. “When a patient presents to the Emergency Department
with a completely closed artery supplying blood to the heart muscle, the goal is to have the artery opened within 90 minutes.”
Currently, Beaufort Memorial does not have the ability to offer interventional cardiology services, so doctors like Dr. Smalheiser do interventional work at tertiary hospitals in Charleston or Savannah. With the ability to treat patients presenting with STEMI, Beaufort Memorial will be able to improve the care of heart attack patients and administer therapies in a timely and safe manner.
The Smalheiser’s live with their dogs, Lucky (an Australian Sheppard) and Hercules (a 3-lb. Pomeranian). When asked about kids, Dr. Smalhieser jokes, “Hey, we just got married!” Good answer!
I’d like to offer a warm welcome to the Smalheiser’s as your neighbor and friend from The Island News. We are very happy to have you here, and wish you the best of luck as
newlyweds and the newest professionals in the Beaufort medical community.
Dr. Stuart Smalheiser received his Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Miami School of Medicine in Miami, Florida. He received his undergraduate degree in 1998 from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He completed an Interventional Cardiology Fellowship at the University of Florida in Jacksonville, following completion of a General Cardiology Fellowship there in 2009. Dr. Smalheiser also completed a Fellowship in Nuclear Cardiology Research at the University of Alabama, Birmingham, after completing his internship and residency in Internal Medicine there. He is Board Certified in Internal Medicine and Nuclear Cardiology, Level 3.

Most of the time, we talk about wines after a tasting. How they tasted, what different people liked about them, stuff like that. This week, I have to plan a tasting for twelve lucky (?) tasters/drinkers. Thought it might be interesting for you to follow along with the choosing process.
First, when you, or anyone else for that matter, are planning to do a wine tasting, the beginning is deciding on some theme for the tasting. This can be a region or a country of origin where the wines come from, it can be a price level of just one grape like ten dollar Cabernets from around the world, wines with the word “XXX” in their name, wines with horses, old cars, furniture, whatever on their labels, wines from just one winery - all sorts of themes. Usually, from what I’ve seen, you would choose wines you haven’t tasted before. I decided for this tasting with this particular group of twelve that new wines were not necessarily essential, because there is a difference between tasting and drinking. Even though they may have drunk some or all of these wines before, they may not have really tasted them. Wines from just one country or winery might not be what they would really like. But a group of five or six good wines, a bubbly, a couple of whites and three reds will be fun, educational and some future favorites.
So, starting with a new bubbly, when I have a captive group, I always love the opportunity I have of forcing then to taste something they would never try otherwise. Of course, this can come back and bite me, but as long as I know I’ve picked a good wine, why worry. So, we’re going to start with a rose (yes, pink) bubbly from Italy. This one, Lamberti Rose, is from up near Venice and is light, clean and crisp. A great way to start a fun evening with friends.
Then, for the whites, I’ve picked Glazebrook Sauvignon Blanc and Jaboulet Parallel 45 Cotes du Rhone White. The Glazebrook is bar none one of my favorite go-to bottles. Its from New Zealand and always fresh, clean, crisp, dry, dry, dry and really grapefruity. I know some of you can’t get to liking the grapefruit flavors of some Sauvignon Blancs, especially those from New Zealand, but, for
those of us who do, this one is a real winner. Following with the Jaboulet Cotes du Rhone white is going to another completely different set of flavors and textures. Most of you know the red version of this wine, and alot of you know the rose also. The white is really different from any other white wines because of the grape varieties used to make it - mostly Grenache Blanc. This wine is full and heavy without a lot of oak texture or flavors. If you drink it too cold, you actually lose alot of the flavors (peach, apricot, nuts, flowers) and the weight of it. Knowing this, you may prefer it in cooler times of the year. Thanksgiving dinner is perfect for it, so try and remember.
Now, for some reds. First, I think we’ll do Broquel Bonarda. A great but different one from Argentina. Bonarda is a grape, historically from northwestern Italy, that probably found its way down to Argentina with the immigrants going there centuries ago. This wine is full but not heavy, fruity but not sweet, smooth bu not wimpy, and great with all kinds of foods. Then, we’ll Museum Crianza from Spain. Made from 100% Tempranillo, one of my favorite red grapes as you should know by now, the 2004 vintage of this wine has just come in so I have to taste the new vintage, obviously. And, finally, we’ll finish with a neat Italian - Santi Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso. I’m thinking as we get close, sort of, to fall and cooler weather, this could be a great find for fall grilling menus.
None of these wines are new new. But, like I said earlier, sometimes they can taste different when you have someone to taste them with. And, then, if you learn a little bit about them, you might even like them more. Looks to me like the Buttercup Challenge has been met. We’ll see this weekend when The Group tastes these wines. (Thank goodness, only a few know about the Buttercup and who The Group is. Sometimes anonymity is best.) Just to be sure they get the best taste of each of these wines, we’ll have brand new wine glasses to taste from. But, don’t you worry! You can get these wines, and the new wine glasses all at the store. Join the fun and enjoy!

The Buttercup Challenge By Celia Strong
How can I tell the difference between needing my teeth whitened versus getting veneers?
Most individuals are able to simply have their
teeth whitened to brighten their smiles. Porcelain veneers are custom-crafted shells of ceramic material applied over the front surface of teeth. The majority of veneer cases are applied to patients with uneven alignment or sizing, worn enamel, small gaps or minor chips and cracks. Porcelain veneers can be matched to your existing tooth color, or can be whiter and brighter if a full-mouth case is being completed.
Will you have to file down my teeth for veneers?
Depending on the specific patient and type of porcelain veneers used, there have been great advances in the application process. Certain porcelain veneers no longer require grinding, cutting or filing of the teeth in most cases.
How long does the process take?
The process of completing a porcelain veneer case is always dependent upon each specific patient. Porcelain veneers can be created and applied in just a few visits in most cases.
Is it painful? Do you have to inject novacaine?
Most patients report the process is painless.
In some instances, local anesthetic may be used during the application process. In the event that anethetia is needed, sedation is a wonderful option that can allow you to sleep through your procedure.some instances, local anesthetic may be used during the application process.
How does it work? Do you get all your teeth done ( or just do uppers in the front for example)?
Patients go through a process of having impressions taken of their natural teeth. Once the impressions have been cast, they are sent to one of the best labs in the country, where custom veneers will be created and designed to fit your teeth. Some patients may only need one or a few veneers, yet others will find a full-mouth case is what completes their smile.
How long do the veneers last?
Having porcelain veneers can be quite costly, therefore, it is understandable that a patient opting for veneers would want to know how long they will last. Unfortunately, there is no definitive answer to this question. The best answer is this: it all depends on how well you take care of them. Under certain conditions, they can last a lifetime.
Do you have any examples of people who are happy with the procedure?
You can visit our website at www.DurhamDental.net, and check out the Smile Gallery to see some before and after photos of patients who have opted for porcelain veneers.

PetsBowWOW!Facts, observations and musings about Our Best Friends
Pet of the WeekThis handsome young man is Tybee. He is a 2-year-old male, neutered Flame Point Persian mix that was brought in by his owner, because they have a new baby at home. He has a bobbed tail. He is a shy young man until he gets to know you but then look out because he likes to cuddle.
Tybee
Last year, over 12 million dogs were killed in animal facilities in the United States, and this figure does not include the many pets who were thrown out of cars, left by the side of the road, or dropped in woods and fields. Yet we continue to sidestep common sense and perpetuate their destruction. Which of these myths do you still believe?
My dog will become fat and lazy if neutered. Common sense: Fat animals are fat because they are overfed and under exercised. Did your brother-in-law become fat and lazy because he had a vasectomy? Or did he get that way because has cheese fries with every meal and he hasn’t been off the couch since the Clinton administration?
My dog won’t be a good watchdog if I neuter him.Common sense: If he was a good watchdog before the surgery, he will be a good watchdog after the surgery. He will only be losing his gonads, not part of his brain.
My dog will feel liked she’s missed something if she doesn’t have a litter.Common sense: As much as we might think of our dogs as peers, they are still animals. Dogs mate simply as a physiological response. There’s no dating involved, no wine and soft music, no Facebook flirting. There’s absolutely no thought involved, whatsoever. Consequently, there is no pining after lost love and missed opportunity. Dogs are just not wired that way. Having a litter is a physiological result of mating. A dog that snacks in the cat box just does not have the mental capacity to feel parentally unfulfilled.
Preventing dogs from having litters is unnatural.
Common sense: Humans first interfered with nature by domesticating dogs and then by breeding them to suit their purposes. The original canid, essentially the wolf, is a far cry from current dogs bred to herd, sport and lay around the house in sweaters. We domesticated dogs 15,000 years ago and in doing so, created the problem. Now, it’s our responsibility to solve it. Note: it’s also unnatural to be killing thousands of unwanted dogs in shelters every year.
We don’t need to neuter males, because they aren’t the ones having the litters.Common sense: This is the most prevalent myth yet is the most ridiculous. Immaculate conception doesn’t explain canine pregnancies. It takes two to tango.
I want my children to see the miracle of birth.Common sense: Frequently animals go off by themselves to give birth, usually in the middle of the night. Teach your children instead about humaneness and kindness to all living creatures by educating them about the importance of spaying and neutering.
I can find “good” homes for all the puppies my female gives birth to.Common sense: Finding truly good, lasting homes for puppies is very difficult. Many pets are taken to the pound or otherwise discarded once they start to grow bigger, take more time, make messes, or chew up something valuable.And, who is to ensure that your pet’s offspring won’t mature, breed, and contribute to the existing problem?
There is no way you can guarantee these animals will be spayed or neutered. For every animal you bring into the world, at least one at the pound will die. Do yourself a favor and avoid the agonizing job of trying to find homes for your pet’s litter. If you know your friends can provide good homes, send them to adopt at the pound. There are many animals waiting there. And their time is running out.
The operation costs too much money.Common sense: You’re right. In this community, it costs way too much.If you shop around, you’ll find one vet in town who provides exceptional care and gets the job done for an extremely reasonable fee. Also, contact, SNAC (Spay/Neuter Alliance and Clinic) in Ridgeland. They have a long waiting list so make an appointment before you get the new puppy.

Friends Don’t Let Friends Have LittersPart Three: Common SenseBy Tracie Korol
That is the big question this fall for the lucky families who have found the benefits of sending their K-9's to school. Dogs begin around 9:30 with a game of chase, inside socialization, snack time, and a round of fetch. "After that we do it all again," reports Beaufort Dog's Day Care Director and head behaviorist, Kelley Blackston. "It really is 'school' Blackston urges because dogs desperately need and look for exercise and discipline first along with socialization then love. Many of us have it backwards giving our dogs attention and love but not having the time or ability
to provide the proper outlets for their drive and purpose." Many problems both behavioral and physical can be minimized if not obliterated by enrolling in doggie day care. Blackston educates, "By keeping your dog healthy mentally and physically, you will be able to save money, a lot of money , on behavioral and vet bills from pets getting into things our of boredom to weight issues to maintaining healthy joints and muscles, even for senior dogs." Blackston's facility has an on-site vet and several behaviorist who all confirm the importance of daycare (under behaviorist supervision) in all
areas. "We see so many problems that can be helped by such socialization, it is remarkable". Beaufort Dog at Habersham has "Back to School" monthly packages that make it that much easier for you and your dog.
"Drop the kids off first or the dogs?"
