Prepare to see plenty of pink this month, as individuals and organizations use the color in honor of breast cancer aware-ness month.

For the second year in a row, Carteret Health Care in Morehead City will illuminate its exterior with pink lights as a way to honor those who have fought the disease and bring awareness to its impact.

The hospital is known for the staff’s work with breast health and patient care for those deal-ing with the disease.

“We have 3-D mammography services and are a Pink Ribbon Facility recognized for excellence in breast health,” said Michelle L. Lee, the hospital’s community relations marketing director. “Our community also has a wonder-ful physician, Dr. Mindy Merritt, who is a certified American Board Surgeon and Fellowship

Carteret Health Care hosts events for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Trained Breast Surgeon here in Carteret County.”

Medical staff throughout the county will offer several ways to learn more about breast cancer or to show pink signs of sup-port.

The hospital is offering free pink ribbons for houses and

businesses and encourages everyone to “tie the town pink.” The ribbons are available at the hospital or the Carolinas Center for Surgery.

Additionally, free clinical breast exams will be offered from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, Oct. 15, at the County Health

Department in Morehead City. Appointments can be made by calling 252-499-6200.

Following this, there will be a “Preventing Breast Cancer” seminar held at 12:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 20. This will be presented by Dr. Merritt. The program will be presented at

the Carteret Community College Donald W. Bryant Student Center.

Finally, a cancer transitions workshop is free for all cancer survivors on Tuesdays throughout October. To register, call 252-499-6642 or email [email protected].

According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation’s web-site, breast cancer is one of the leading health crises for women in the United States with one in eight women being diagnosed with the disease in her lifetime.

There is currently no known cure for breast cancer and an early diagnosis is critical for survival.

Self-breast exams can be per-formed at home.

Use light pressure to check to lumps near the surface and firm pressure to explore deeper tissue.

Any time a new or unusual lump is found, women should immediately be examined by their doctor.

For more information, visit www.nationalbreastcancer.org.

The N.C. Coastal Federation and Hammocks Beach State Park are recruiting volunteers to help clean up Dudley Island from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday, Oct. 10.

Dudley Island, an uninhab-ited island at the mouth of the White Oak River, provides valu-able habitat for marine life and nesting birds. To keep Dudley Island clean and healthy, volun-teers will pick up trash on the island and along the marshes.

The N.C. Coastal Federation, a Carteret County-based non-profit dedicated to protecting the state’s coastal environment, said in a press release this debris is not only unsightly, but is also dangerous to wildlife that can mistake it for food or become entangled in the trash.

“Data will be collected for Carteret Big Sweep and the International Coastal Cleanup on the types and quantities of debris collected,” the federation said. “This information will help to identify and manage sources of debris and to focus educa-tional efforts.”

Volunteers will meet at Hammocks Beach State Park

Volunteers sought for cleanup at Hammocks Beach State Parkand will travel by boat to the island. This event is limited to 20 participants and is weather dependent. To reserve a spot on the boat, register online at the

website nccoast.org/events or call 252-393-8185.

Participants may get wet and dirty at this event, so the N.C. Coastal Federation asks

volunteers to dress accord-ingly and bring a towel and work gloves. Closed-toe shoes are required. Supplies, drinks and peanut butter sandwich

fixings will be provided. This is a family-friendly event;

the federation said children are welcome but must be accompa-nied by an adult.

People will have different reactions to the new “The Blair Witch Project” sequel, but one thing we all probably can agree on is this: We need to hurry up and clear-cut that haunted forest in Maryland, once and for all.

Even environmentalists would agree – what about a nice big parking lot? – after sitting through the harrow-ing “Blair Witch,” which takes place in the same creepy woods where three student filmmakers disappeared in the original.

Why either a new batch of kids or a new clutch of filmmakers have suited up to tramp around the Black Hills in search of the same angry witch is puzzling. There’s an

old saying that you can never go home again. It is advice neither team took – and so they’re doomed.

“Blair Witch” borrows most of the skeleton of the original 1999 film but ups the scari-ness at the cost of coherency. Director Adam Wingard also strays from the found-footage conceit and sometimes doesn’t even pretend that what we’re seeing was shot by anyone in the group. That suspension of disbelief is important or why try a direct sequel at all? (By the way, we’re totally ignoring the quickie 2000 sequel “Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2.”)

First a primer, in case you just wandered out of a haunt-ed forest: “The Blair Witch Project” was a cultural sensa-tion. Shot for an initial budget of less than $50,000, it grossed

just shy of $248 million, spark-ing trends in both found-foot-age horror and shaky-camera confessionals.

Its faux-documentary prem-ise was that it was just stitched-together footage taken by three student filmmakers who went missing while witch hunting. Directors Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez did such a good job that audiences initial-ly really believed three souls had been lost.

The original was quaint hor-ror by today’s standard, more psychologically traumatiz-ing and not at all gory. The three students gradually turn on each other in the face of escalating hysteria – really just piles of rocks and weird stick figures.

It ended with a snot-nosed, half-faced apology by one vic-

tim. In the sequel, her brother (Brandon Scott) is determined to find out what happened 20 years ago. So he and three friends (Callie Hernandez, Brandon Scott, Corbin Reid), incredibly, suit up to tramp in the same creepy woods. By this time, it should be clear that no one should ever wander off alone, even to relieve them-selves. Do these kids listen?

This time, our heroes are joined by some locals (Wes Robinson and Valorie Curry) who know the woods – but may have their own agenda – and writer Simon Barrett has weaved in a sly lesson about our confidence in high-tech gizmos. The group seems invincible with their GPS, digi-tal walkie-talkies, memory cards and earpieces. (They even brought a drone.) Good

luck with that, guys.This sequel gets progres-

sively messy while “The Blair Witch Project” grew progres-sively taut. In this movie, the filmmakers throw out a lot of elements that are dead ends – double-crossing, infections and time shifts. The film really only rights itself in the final, breathtaking sequences when the title character applies her special brand of pressure.

So, for those keeping score, it’s: Nosey Kids, 0; Blair Witch, 2.

It’s time to bulldoze, right?“Blair Witch,” a Lionsgate,

Vertigo Entertainment, Room 101 and Snoot Entertainment release, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for “language, terror and some disturbing images.”

Running time: 89 minutes. Two stars out of four.

TOASTED PECAN BURGERS1 pound ground chuck¼ cup chopped red onion¼ cup chopped pecans, toasted1 tablespoon finely chopped green bell pepper3 tablespoons Stubb’s Original Bar-B-Q Sauce2 tablespoons Stubb’s Bar-B-Q Spice RubMix together chuck, onion, pecans, bell pepper, sauce and rub. Shape into 4 pat-

ties. Prepare grill for direct cooking. When coals are ashed over in charcoal grill, spread

them in bottom of grill so food can cook directly over coals. Grill burgers over direct, medium heat, first on one side then the other, 7-10

minutes, until they reach desired doneness. Medium burgers register an internal temperature of 160 F.

Serve with favorite burger toppings on toasted buns.

Crowd-pleasing game day grilling

For dozens of easy, delicious tailgating recipes, visit stubbsbbq.com.

Football food:For millions of football fans, the grill is

as important as the gridiron when enjoy-ing a weekend of games. There’s nothing like team spirit, the anticipation of kickoff and the smell of a delicious pregame tail-gate wafting through the stadium parking lot.

National barbecue expert Rocky Stubblefield of Stubb’s Legendary Bar-

B-Q offers tips and recipes for game day grilling that will have the whole crowd cheering.

Keep it simpleMr. Stubblefield says anything that

cooks fast on the grill is great for tailgat-ing – burgers, hotdogs, chicken – and to bring on the flavor without having to pack a carload of ingredients, use sauces, rubs and marinades. Prepare food ahead of time and have a checklist for the things

that are needed but are easy to forget, like napkins and tin foil.

Grilling tipsFor perfectly shaped, evenly cooked

burgers, make a thumbprint in the middle of each patty before grilling. Amp up the flavor by rubbing burgers with Stubb’s Bar-B-Q rub before putting them on the grill – just like brisket or ribs. Wait to put the sauce on until the very end of grilling to avoid charring and burning.

Every fall, the Beaufort Historical Association com-bines the elegant backdrop of a waterfront home, delec-table food, great music and the beautiful paintings of a selected artist for its annual Fall Party, the biggest fund-raiser of the year.

The Fall Party starts at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15, at 821 Front St. But the attendees do not have to wait until then to enjoy what the party has to offer.

To kick off the Fall Party weekend, Fen Rascoe, the Fall Party artist, will host an art-ist workshop on Wednesday-Thursday, Oct. 12-13, where he will work with a small group of participants on color mixing and impressionism painting.

Also on the Oct. 13, the grounds of the Beaufort Historic Site will open to the sponsors of the Fall Party for a private viewing of Mr. Rascoe’s artwork.

Mr. Rascoe’s love for art began in his high school art class and followed him through college.

After several years’ hiatus, he picked the brush back up and has since begun putting his favorite subjects from Eastern North Carolina on canvas and panel.

Over the past year, Mr. Rascoe has joined the American Impressionists Society and has studied under multiple nation-ally and regionally known art-ists.

A former student of the late Ken Auster and other west coast contemporary impres-sionists such as Randal Sexton and Ned Mueller, Mr. Rascoe strives to transform normal everyday scenes into loose, colorful and harmonious recon-nections for the viewer.

Mr. Rascoe uses a limited palette of only three to five colors and tries to balance stu-dio work with on-site plein air work.

His art has been featured in several shows and he has received many awards and honorable mentions.

Beginning at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15, guests can enjoy Mr. Rascoe’s work at the waterfront home of Wes and Trent Ragland on the corner of Front and Live Oak streets. Originally built by Hugh and

Beaufort Historical Association gears up for annual Fall Party

Nan Cullman, the Raglands’ home has views of Taylor’s Creek.

A perfect complement to Mr. Rascoe’s colorful, harmo-nious style is the light, melo-dious sound of the band Blue Moon Jazz.

Local musicians from Jacksonville, Emerald Isle and the New Bern area create the quartet.

The group has been per-

forming jazz standards and modern jazz for the past 14 years, although individu-ally, the group’s experience extends decades.

Beaufort Grocery Co. will cater the event.

After the Fall Party, Mr. Rascoe’s artwork can be seen at the Mattie King Davis Art Gallery in the historic Rustell House on the Beaufort Historic Site.

The Mattie King Davis Art Gallery is the oldest art gallery in the county. Open year round, the gallery con-tains only original works of art by local and regional art-ists inspired by our quaint sea coast.

Tickets are $100 each and may be purchased in advance or the day of the event at the Beaufort Historic Site Welcome Center or online at

www.beauforthistoricsite.org. All proceeds from ticket

sales benefit the preserva-tion, restoration and educa-tion programs of the Beaufort Historic Site.

For more information about the Fall Party or the artwork of Mr. Rascoe, stop by the Beaufort Historic Site’s Welcome Center at 130 Turner St. or call 252-728-5225.

Beaufort Historical Association’s annual Fall Party will be held at 821 Front St. The house is owned by Wes and Trent Ragland on the corner of Front and Live Oak streets. During the party, guests can see the artwork of Fen Rascoe, enjoy food by Beaufort Grocery Co. and live music by Blue Moon Jazz. (Contributed photo)

As developmental editor for Beaufort Writing Group, Susan Schmidt advises authors how to revise books for publication. She is also a published author.

In October, Beaufort resi-dent Dr. Schmidt will share her knowledge and her work with a writer’s workshop.

Starting Wednesday, Oct. 12, Dr. Schmidt will lead a Writing from Experience: Fiction Memoir Poetry Workshop. This six-week workshop is from 4-6 p.m. in Beaufort.

The cost is $150 for first-tim-ers and $125 return participants. To register and find location, email [email protected] or call 252-269-0032.

To jump-start ideas and induce creativity, the Beaufort writing workshop gives writ-ing assignments and dozens of playful exercises in short fic-tion, nonfiction and poetry in a fun and supportive community atmosphere.

This workshop is for writers just beginning or for seasoned writers, working on a manuscript or with a project in mind.

Assignments hone skills in storytelling: description, setting, character, dialogue, plot, tone and word choice.

On weekly projects, Dr. Schmidt marks copyediting advice on grammar usage, style and logic, sharing basic tenets of clear writing and complex strate-gies of structuring a book.

Writers will learn to shape,

Local author to read poetry, hold writer’s workshopfocus and fine-tune narra-tive tone and trajectory. To target the pub-lishing market and find an agent, writers may prepare a query and pro-spectus.

As well as the workshop, Dr. Schmidt also recruits several seasoned writers with workshop

SCHMIDT

experience and a book in prog-ress to join an ongoing Critique Group that meets alternate Wednesdays. The best path to the Critique Group is to take the workshop first.

Dr. Schmidt polishes science and history books, novels and memoirs, and her private edit-ing clients have published books and won awards. One signed a two-novel contract with St. Martin’s.

Her narrative nonfiction book, Landfall Along the Chesapeake,

In the Wake of Captain John Smith, is an ecological history and boat adventure about her own 100-day, 2,000-mile boat trip retracing Capt. Smith’s 1608 voyage. She also wrote an environmental novel, Song of Moving Water, about an Appalachian community orga-nizing to fight a dam that will flood their farms.

Dr. Schmidt is an award-win-ning poet. Two of her poems are finalists for the 2016 James Applewhite Prize and will appear

in N.C. Literary Review 2017. She won the Guy Owen Poetry

Prize, and her poem appears in Literary Trails of Eastern North Carolina.

She had writing fellowships in France from Virginia Center from Creative Arts, Bread Loaf, Vermont Studio Center, N.C. Arts Council, National Endowment for Humanities and American Association of University Women.

She taught creative and tech-nical writing in college and high school for 30 years.

The Red Clay Ramblers con-cert, which was originally sched-uled for Friday and Saturday at Carteret Community College’s Joslyn Hall, has been post-poned because of the potential storm impacts from Huricane Matthew.

The date has yet to be announced, but officials from the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and Heritage Center, as well as the N.C. Coastal Federation, the organizations sponsoring the concert, say the performance

will take place some time in 2017.

“We are working with the band and the college to get this concert back on the calen-dar in early 2017,” said Karen Amspacher, the executive direc-tor for the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and Heritage Center. “Ticket holders will be contact-ed for refunds or tickets for the new date. Thanks to everyone for their understanding.”

Here’s How It Works:Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken

down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

10This month, the Cassie

Howe Algeo Gallery will fea-ture the creative work of Havelock photographer Beth Kohotek.

This exhibit will be in the hallway connecting the new and old lobbies of Carteret Health Care at 3500 Arendell St. in Morehead City.

The show is free and open to the public at all times. Most of the works are for sale. Purchase can be arranged through the hospital’s human resources department.

Mrs. Kohutek is married to a retired U.S. Marine and is the mother of two adult children. Originally from Long Island, N.Y., she has claimed North Carolina as home for more than 20 years.

In addition to her back-

ground as an interior designer, the unique life-style of being the wife of a Marine afforded many opportunities to travel and experience the culture of many different places with her family.

Her photography style is sophisticated, abstract and greatly influenced by her years living in Japan and her walk in faith as a Christian.

“My very best captures always have prayer behind, over and under them,” she said.

Graceful, sophisticated min-imalism, along with the use of light, shadows, varied textures and thoughtfulness, are preva-lent in much of her portraiture and fine art work.

She is vice president of the Arts for the Hospital

Gallery to feature Havelock photographer’s workCommittee and recently led a large group of local children in the creation of a collaborative suspended ceiling sculpture at the summer art camp her church sponsored.

Ms. Kohotek has found much success in the competi-

tive and professional aspects of photography too, but most especially, she adores the thrill of the observation, capturing light and the joy of a printed image.

Look for her newest work, “Up in the Clouds,” to be

exhibited later this month at the 2016 Bank of the Arts annual juried exhibition in New Bern.

For more information about the Arts for the Hospital Committee, contact Sally Anger at 252-241-1810.

The public is invited to hear author and philanthropist Kathy Knowles of Winnipeg, Canada, speak during a free presenta-tion.

Ms. Knowles will speak at 10 a.m. Monday, Oct. 10, at the Coral Bay Club in Atlantic Beach.

In 1989, Ms. Knowles and her husband John travelled to Accra, Ghana, West Africa with

their four young children after Mr. Knowles accepted a posi-tion with Sikaman, a Canadian gold mining company.

Observing that Ghanaian chil-dren in their neighborhood had no opportunities to read story-books, Ms. Knowles started a weekly reading circle under a tree in their garden.

This initiative led to the estab-lishment of the Osu Children’s

Library Fund, a nonprofit Canadian organization, and the Osu Library Fund, a nonprofit Ghanaian charity.

Together these organizations have built eight large commu-nity libraries in Greater Accra and have helped to create more than 200 libraries in Africa.

The family returned to Canada in 1993. Since then Ms. Knowles has volunteered on a full-time

basis from her Winnipeg home with the support of dedicated volunteers.

She also works in close part-nership with Ghanaian library staff, local government officials and board members.

Ms. Knowles will share her experiences with bringing the joy of reading and literacy to thousands of Ghanaian chil-dren.

She is a member of the Winnipeg Rotary Club that originally turned Rotary into an international organization in 1905.

Since 1997, this rotary club has been the sister club of Rotary Club of Kinston.

Those who plan on attending the event should RSVP to Carol Southerland by calling 252- 526-7952.

In North Carolina’s cities and counties, including Carteret County, many creatures live and thrive unnoticed in natural communities.

The N.C. Natural Heritage Program has a website, www.ncnhp.org, that allows citizens to discover the many life forms in their midst. A few, such as the Venus fly trap, which is found in the Croatan National Forrest, are unique. Others, such as the long-eared bat, are endangered.

The website is a tool for citi-zens, conservationists, govern-ment and industry to inform economic development and land conservation decisions.

Natural communities techni-cally are a distinct collection of plants and animals, includ-ing fungi and bacteria, that are associated with each other and their physical environment. More than 300 such communi-ties are in the state.

They consist of plants and animals, the living elements; and soil and water, non-living elements.

The combination of factors makes each North Carolina

Natural heritage website identifies rare plants and bats near you

natural community unique.Each natural community

thrives in its preferred ecore-gion, the mountains, piedmont or coastal plain, and preferred conditions – high and dry, low and moist or a combination.

The varied topography, soil types and moisture present creates a rich biodiversity in the state. In addition to being home to native species, natu-ral communities are home to ecosystems that cycle nutrients and clean the water and air. Different types of natural com-munities can be found close together in the landscape, like distinct neighborhoods in a city.

The Natural Heritage Program is the repository for data on rare species and exem-plary natural communities.

The revamped website allows members of the public, busi-ness and industry, the military and others to access informa-tion about the state’s ecology

and natural heritage. A popular feature is the

interactive Data Explorer map that shows nature preserves and conservation areas online at http://ncnhde.natureserve.org/content/map.

Environmental professionals can subscribe to the environ-mental review tool to generate reports about natural features in specific project areas.

Anyone can search a data-base to discover what rare spe-cies are known in their county at http://www.ncnhp.org/data/species-community-search.

National Heritage Program rules, contact information and information on recent activities are on the new website also.

For additional information, call Misty Buchanan at 919- 707-8107.

The Natural Heritage Program is within the Division of Land and Water Stewardship of the N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.
