  • Girl Scouts to unveil 25-year-old time capsuleThe nat ional Gir l Scouts organization is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2012. Polk County has a rich history of scouting. During the 75th anniversar y year, a t ime capsule was buried at the Polk County courthouse. Shown here are Carol Morton, Dollie-Brooke Reid and Jessi Bromwell on March 12, 1987, when the time capsule was buried. What kind of legacy did the former generation of Girl Scouts leave for girls today? Find out on Saturday, Sept. 29 at 1 p.m., when the time capsule is scheduled to be opened. All current and former Girl Scouts are invited to participate in the time capsule ceremony. (photo submitted by Amber Thompson)

    and 20 percent instead of 50 and 100 percent of water charges. If the town enters stage IV water re-strictions, the draft plan now states a surcharge of 10 percent of the minimum usage rate will be added to each water bill where customer usage surpasses minimum usage. If customer usage is equal to or more than double the minimum usage rate, a surcharge of 20 percent of the minimum usage rate will be added.

    Commissioner Wim Woody brought up concerns regarding the penalties and said he disagrees with penalizing anyone.

    Id like to eliminate (the penalties), Woody said. I think voluntary restrictions will work and dont think we need to subject citizens to that kind of penalty.

    Town attorney Bailey Nager said the charges would be on an individual basis and the state requires the town to add a new consequence at each stage.

    The next stage is rationing, where you are actually distributing bottles of water to everyone, said Nager. You may be at the point [during stage IV] where people need to be conserving to 150 gallons.

    At stage IV mandatory water restrictions, the draft plan also requires the town fire department to bring in non-potable water by truck to be used for toilet flushing and other uses that do not require potable water. The National Guard may also be asked to assist the town during stage IV restrictions through their water buffalo wag-ons. During stage IV restrictions, the town is to establish an account with a potable water bottling company in preparation of buying large amounts of bottled water, the draft plans says.

    Council also reviewed what the town would do if stage V restric-tions were ever warranted. Stage V restrictions would mean customers are not allowed to use the towns water for any reason. That would mean Tryon would have no water, and neither would any of its joint systems, including Saluda, Hen-dersonville, Asheville, Columbus and Polk County.

    When we have a problem, other areas will, too, said Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples. If we dont

    have water you have to assume others dont either. I dont care how we cut it, its not going to be pretty.

    In the event of stage V restric-tions, the town will be required to provide bottled water to its customers by setting up locations to distribute the water.

    The towns plan will now fol-low the state drought monitor, which is updated every Thursday at www.ncdrought.org.

    Tryon will be in stage 0 (vol-untary conservation) when the state drought monitor map puts Polk County in the Abnormally Dry category.

    Stage 1 (voluntary) restrictions begin when the state map places Polk in D1 Moderate Drought con-ditions. Stage I restrictions include for it to be unlawful to water lawns and gardens, fill swimming pools and wash vehicles, among other restrictions.

    Stage II (mandatory 1) restric-tions will begin when the map places Polk in D2 Severe Drought conditions. Stage IIs additional re-strictions make it unlawful to serve the towns water in restaurants for drinking water and using air con-ditioners that do not recycle water.

    Stage III (mandatory II) re-strictions will begin when the map places Polk in D3 Extreme Drought conditions. Stage III restrictions add as unlawful uses such activities as any outdoor watering and using commercial air conditioning at any time other than regular business hours.

    Stage IV (Emergency) restric-tions begin when the drought map places Polk in D4 Exceptional Drought conditions or if there is no water flowing over the Lake Lanier weir.

    Stage V (rationing) can also be declared if there is no water flow-ing over the Lake Lanier weir.

    The plan has to be adopted by the town every five years and approved by the state.

    Council members made the finals changes to the draft and ap-proved it going forward with the public review process. A public hearing will be required before the town adopts the plan and sends it to the state for approval.

    The draft plan can be viewed at Tryon Town Hall.

    Comfort and care you can trust with every visit. When her routine mammogram revealed an abnormality and she had to undergo a diagnostic mammogram, Priscilla McBrayer was anxious for results. She felt relief when a personal phone call came from Sharon Elliott, director of The Mammography Place, to tell her everything was normal.

    The enormity of their compassion is unbelievable, Priscilla says. Its like theyve been in your shoes.

    The professional and confident care given by the staff at The Mammography Place is why Priscilla has chosen to get her mammograms there every year. They know about you and ask about whats going on in your life. Ive always told anyone that this is a great place to have your mammogram done. The Mammography Place and its technologists are fully accredited and certified by the American College of Radiology to provide the highest quality screening mammography services to the women of Rutherford County and the surrounding area.

    The enormity of their compassion is unbelievable. Its like theyve been in your shoes.

    the downtown area to answer questions, hand out informa-tion, give directions, etc.

    The open house tour is part of an ongoing effort to stimu-late economic growth in down-town Tryon. After a couple of businesses moved out of the downtown area recently, Tryon business and property own-ers, town officials, the Tryon Downtown Development As-sociation and area residents held a brainstorming session on July 9 that was attended by approximately 200 people.

    The purpose of the session was to come up with ideas for addressing the number of vacant storefronts on Trade, Pacolet and Depot streets. The idea for the open house tour came out of that brainstorming session. Volunteers stepped up to organize the event and con-tacted property owners about participating.

    Truth. It is often hard to define what is true and what is false because what is be-lieved by one person to be the truth is considered to be false from someone elses perspective.

    One of the most famous ex-amples may be Pontius Pilate, the governor of Judea, when he had Jesus before him and was questioning the claims being made against Jesus by the priests and the scribes of the temple. In response, Jesus told him, For this I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice. Pilate asked him, What is truth? (John 18:37b-38a) In the end Pilate capitulated to the priests and scribes and sent Jesus to be tortured and crucified in order to preserve

    Pilates political and personal power even though he openly admitted, I find no case against him. (John 19:4)

    Telling the truth can be a dangerous thing, especially when the institution, the cul-ture or the one to whom we tell the truth is deeply embedded in a habit, process or self-serving situation that might be placed at risk should the truth be laid bare for all to see.

    In Jesus case, the truth he brought to Jerusalem Gods truth was that the religious authorities who ran the temple the Pharisees and the Sad-ducees had so egregiously violated Gods will and intentions that their abuses had to be exposed. Jesus told the truth the truth that the self-serving practices of the priests and scribes that kept

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

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

    The human Tongue

    a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!

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

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

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

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

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

    A Special Thank You To All Our Sponsors!

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

It did not fit their own defini-tion of the truth and so they manipulated Pilate, who knew in truth that Jesus had done no wrong, and had Jesus executed anyway. Telling the truth can be a very dangerous thing to do.

    In the end, however, the truth that Jesus told was completely vindicated; first in his resurrection from death; second in the fact that, just as Jesus had said, the temple was destroyed (in 70AD); and third in that Pontius Pilate was recalled to Rome on ac-count of his political bungling shortly after Jesus crucifix-

    ion, was then exiled to Gaul and soon committed suicide in Vienne. Perhaps he should have listened to his wife when she said, Have nothing to do with that innocent man (Matthew 27:19) and stood by the truth, whatever the political cost with the temple authorities.

    These days we might in-deed ask, as Pilate did, What is truth? Depending on ones personal wishes and desires we can fool ourselves, or be fooled by others, into believ-ing that black is white and call that the truth.

    But the final measure of what is true and good can-not be found in our human definitions, whether those are institutional, cultural or personal. Genuine truth is only rooted in Gods revealed Word Jesus Christ who said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,

    and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself. (Luke 10.27)

    Since love is the opera-tive word in this definition, all truth must be based on the unconditional love Jesus demonstrated toward us. That love is absolutely giv-ing and self-sacrificial and finds its source in kindness, mercy, compassion, generos-ity, steadfastness and forgive-ness. However, even when the personal cost of speaking and following the truth in love is high that sacrifice will be vindicated.

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

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

    The human Tongue

    a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!

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

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

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

Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

    The human Tongue

    a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!

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

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

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

    Money, or currency, is something that is used as a medium of exchange. Over the centuries, money has come in all different shapes and sizes. In the United States today, the dollar is the primary form of currency in circulation. Until recent decades, most types of monies have almost always been made from, or backed by, a precious metal. This means that the coins themselves have been made from silver or gold, or that there were precious metals in a reserve to back up the worth of the money. In 1900, the United States Government passed the Gold Standard Act. For every paper dollar that existed, a certain amount of gold was kept in storage by the U.S. Government. In 1933, the Unit-ed States began moving away from the gold s
