WEEKEND WEATHER USS North Carolina Changes Hands By Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Daniel Hinton, Commander, Submarine Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet Public Affairs PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii (NNS) -- The Virginia- class, fast attack submarine USS North Carolina (SSN 777) held a change of command ceremony at the historic submarine piers of Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, May 31. Cmdr. Matthew Lewis, commanding officer of North Carolina, was relieved by Cmdr. Michael Fisher, after more than 30 months in command of the vessel. Capt. Richard E. Seif, chief of staff and deputy commander of Submarine Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet, was the guest speaker for the ceremony and shared stories of his time working with Lewis. “I remember the first time I visited the North Carolina across the water in drydock,” said Seif. “It was clear that you and your crew had a lot on your plate, but it was also clear that you were the right man for the job.” Seif evoked a quote from famous North Carolinian, Michael Jordan, to describe the performance of the crew and captain. “Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen, and under your leadership Matt, the crew of North Carolina made it happen,” said Seif. “Not only did you get North Carolina back out to sea early but you also delivered a front-line submarine crew, ready for operational tasking from day one.” Seif also welcomed Fisher to the waterfront and expressed confidence in his ability to perform. “I know first-hand that you are the right man for the job to lead this motivated team through any challenge that may come their way.” During the ceremony, Capt. Wes Bringham, commander, Submarine Squadron 1 presented Lewis with a Meritorious Service Medal for exceptional conduct while serving as commanding officer of the vessel from January 2017 to May 2019. Lewis thanked all in attendance and lauded the North Carolina crew’s ability to handle adversity. “Our crew understood the task and challenge that lied in front of us,” said Lewis. “If successful, we would restore an already assumed to be lost deployment from the lifetime of the ship. Looking back at the past two years, I am astonished and honored to have worked with our Sailors to bring North Carolina back to the fleet.” Fisher, addressing his new crew for the first time after assuming command, commended them on their recent accomplishments. “To the crew of North Carolina, your camaraderie, positive attitude, and exceptional work ethic are contagious,” said Fisher. “I am overjoyed to have this opportunity with you, and I have no doubt that as a team we will accomplish tremendous things together as patriots and ready warfighters on one of the most advanced warships in the world.” JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM, Hawaii (May 31, 2019) Cmdr.

Marine Fisheries Commission is moving toward implementing commercial and recreational flounder seasons to end overfishing and rebuild the overfished southern flounder stock. The commission voted last week to accept the recommendations of the Division of Marine Fisheries in their entirety as its preferred management options for Draft Amendment 2 to the Southern Flounder Fishery Management Plan. The division proposes a 62% reduction in southern flounder harvest (compared to 2017) in North Carolina this year and a 72% reduction in harvest beginning in 2020 to be achieved through commercial and recreational season closures. The division also proposes yardage and time restrictions for gill nets and prohibiting the use of puncturing devices, such as gaffs, in the pound net fishery. The specific Marine Fisheries Commission preferred management options can be found on the southern flounder information page on the division’s website. Draft Amendment 2 to the Southern Flounder Fishery Management Plan is now in the departmental and legislative review portion of the fishery management plan process. The commission is scheduled to vote on final approval of the draft amendment and its management measures at its Aug. 21-23 meeting. If approved, the management measures would become effective immediately following the meeting and stay in place until adoption and implementation of Amendment 3 to the Southern Flounder Fishery Management Plan, scheduled for completion in 2021. Southern flounder is one of three main species of flounder landed on the North Carolina coast. The other two species are summer flounder and Gulf flounder. Reductions in harvest are required because a 2019 South Atlantic Southern Flounder Stock Assessment found that southern flounder is overfished and overfishing is occurring throughout the region (North Carolina through the eastern coast of Florida). Overfished means the population is too small. Overfishing means the removal rate is too high. North Carolina law mandates that fishery management plans include measures to end overfishing within two years of adoption and rebuild the stock to achieve sustainable harvest within 10 years of adoption of a fishery management plan.

The featured award winning barbecue was supplied by Dennis Brinson while bluegrass music of the Harbor Sounds filled the air. The fun was followed on Saturday by the long anticipated Gala.The Gala included a cocktail bar for guests to socialize followed by a delicious dinner and dancing to the Chuck Eatmond Band. The evening also hosted a live auction and closed with the drawing of the $10,000 Golden Raffle Winner. The Hope Regala is the Hope Clinic’s largest fundraiser of the year and benefits the non-profit which provides free medical treatment and medication to uninsured and low income adults with addictions. They provide comprehensive addiction treatment to adults in eastern North Carolina and the success of the Gala helps ensure that they are able to continue to do so. While no racing actually took place like at a traditional “regatta” the regala did not disappoint. From the mouth-watering barbecue to the blissful music, all in attendance seemed delighted by the event as the Hope Regala filled the harbor with fun! Thanks to recent rainfall, conditions are improving causing the N.C.Forest Service to lift the burn ban for 18 counties. The ban, which went into effect on May 30 due to the extremely dry conditions, was lifted at 5 p.m. on Monday, June 10, 2019. The burn ban included the following counties: Beaufort, Bladen, Brunswick, Carteret, Columbus, Craven, Dare, Duplin, Hyde, Jones, Lenoir, New Hanover, Onslow, Pamlico, Pender, Pitt, Tyrrell and Washington. These counties are now issuing burn permits but caution individuals against an open burning as open debris fires are the leading cause of wildfires in North Carolina. The ban was intended to curb human caused wildfires to allow responders to handle other wildfires, such as those caused by lightning. With the ban in effect N.C. Forest Service responded to 53 wildfires. Permits that were issued within these 18 counties prior to the ban have been cancelled and must be reapplied for either in-person or online at: www.ncforestservice.gov. The online burn permit is available statewide. Resident questions should be directed to the county ranger with the N.C. Forest Service or the county Fire Marshal’s office. BURN BAN LIFTED

Fatherrsquos Day is a cel-ebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood paternal bonds and the influ-ence of fathers in soci-ety In Catholic Europe it has been celebrated

on March 19 (Saint Josephrsquos Day) since the Middle Ages This celebra-tion was brought by the Spanish and Portuguese to Latin America where March 19 is often still used for it though many countries in Europe and the Americas have adopted the US date which is the third Sunday of June It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world most commonly in the months of March April and June according to the home nationrsquos customs

Fatherrsquos Day was not celebrat-ed in the US outside Catholic tra-ditions until the 20th century As a civic celebration in the US it was inaugurated in the early 20th century to complement Motherrsquos Day by cele-brating fathers and male parenting

After Anna Jarvisrsquo successful pro-motion of Motherrsquos Day in Grafton West Virginia the first observance of a ldquoFatherrsquos Dayrdquo was held on July 5 1908 in Fairmont West Virginia in the Williams Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church South now known as Central United Methodist Church Grace Golden Clayton morning her father in December 1907 when the Monongah Mining Disaster in near-by Monongah killed 361 men 250 of them fathers leaving around a thousand fatherless children Clayton suggested that her pastor Robert Thomas Webb honor all those fathers Claytonrsquos event did not have reper-cussions outside Fairmont for several reasons among them the city was overwhelmed by other events the cel-ebration was never promoted outside the town itself and no proclamation of it was made by the city council Also two events overshadowed this event the celebration of Independence Day July 4 1908 with 12000 attendants and several shows including a hot air balloon event which took over the headlines in the following days and the death of a 16-year-old girl on July 4 The local church and council were overwhelmed and they did not even think of promoting the event and it was not celebrated again for many years The original sermon was not reproduced by the press and it was lost Finally Clayton was a quiet per-son who never promoted the event and never talked to other persons about it

On June 19 1910 a Fatherrsquos Day celebration was held at the YMCA in Spokane Washington by Sonora Smart Dodd Her father the Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart was a single parent who raised his six children there She was also a mem-ber of Old Centenary Presbyterian Church (now Knox Presbyterian Church) where she first proposed the idea After hearing a sermon about Jarvisrsquo Motherrsquos Day in 1909 at Central Methodist Episcopal Church she told her pastor that fathers should have a similar holiday to honor them Although she initially suggested June 5 her fatherrsquos birthday the pastors did not have enough time to prepare their sermons and the celebration was deferred to the third Sunday in

June Several local clergymen accept-ed the idea and on June 19 1910 the first Fatherrsquos Day ldquosermons honoring fathers were presented throughout the cityrdquo

However in the 1920s Dodd stopped promoting the celebration because she was studying at the Art Institute of Chicago and it faded into relative obscurity even in Spokane In the 1930s Dodd returned to Spokane and started promoting the celebration again raising awareness at a national level She had the help of those trade groups that would benefit most from the holiday for example the manu-facturers of ties tobacco pipes and any traditional present for fathers By 1938 she had the help of the Fatherrsquos Day Council founded by the New York Associated Menrsquos Wear Retailers to consolidate and systematize the holidayrsquos commercial promotion Americans resisted the holiday for its first few decades viewing it as noth-ing more than an attempt by mer-chants to replicate the commercial success of Motherrsquos Day and newspa-pers frequently featured cynical and sarcastic attacks and jokes However the said merchants remained resilient and even incorporated these attacks into their advertisements By the mid-1980s the Fatherrsquos Day Council wrote ldquo() [Fatherrsquos Day] has become a Second Christmas for all the menrsquos gift-oriented industriesrdquo

A bill to accord national recogni-tion of the holiday was introduced in Congress in 1913 In 1916 President went to Spokane to speak at a Fatherrsquos Day celebration and he wanted to make it an officially recognized feder-al holiday but Congress resisted fear-ing that it would become commer-cialized The President recommend-ed in 1924 that the day be observed throughout the entire nation but he stopped short at issuing a national proclamation Two earlier attempts to formally recognize the holiday had been defeated by Congress In 1957 Maine Senator Margaret Chase Smith wrote a Fatherrsquos Day proposal accusing Congress of ignoring fathers for 40 years while honoring moth-ers thus ldquo[singling] out just one of our two parentsrdquo In 1966 President Lyndon B Johnson issued the first presidential proclamation honoring fathers designating the third Sunday in June as Fatherrsquos Day Six years later the day was made a perma-nent national holiday when President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972

The relationship between fathers and sons is often precarious at the best and confrontational at the worst Many times there seems to be compe-tition between father and son for the affection of the mother in the house Maybe it is just testosterone acting up and like two male animals vying for territory by fighting it out father and son tend to battle it out through a fight of wills and argument

I grew up like a lot of sons with a poor relationship with my dad We were so different there was no com-mon ground I canrsquot say whose fault it was it just was what it was He spent little time with me and I guess I was ok with that I spent a lot of time alone reading and dad didnrsquot read much beyond the newspaper He worked hard six days a week to provide for us leaving the house

before we got up in the mornings and coming back home around 530 or 6 pm By the time he got home he was tired and didnrsquot have much energy or interest in playing ball or anything else So there was little interaction between me and him

This is the basic relationship until after mom passed away in 1995 When that happened Dad began to depend more on me to get him to the doctorrsquos office and I began spend-ing more and more time with him After he developed cancer I spent a lot more time with him and began taking care of him as his cancer got worse Finally in November I moved in with him to look after him espe-cially as he began to fall more and more in the house I would cook three meals a day keep the house clean and sit with him at night watching TV and talking I began to tape record our conversations on his growing up and childhood and his experiences in World War II He enjoyed those conversations tremendously and he enjoyed our time together as did I As he got worse I began to give him his baths and take care of his physical needs as well as the cooking etc As a result we got even closer as we talked about his last months and what he wanted to happen in the future I stayed with him and took care of him until he passed away in late January

The Bible says to honor thy father and mother I think I did that rather well and wouldnrsquot do a thing differ-ently He had his independence right up until his last few months and yet I was there to help him as he needed it I learned so much from him over the years even though we werenrsquot close I learned to do things right the first time or you would have to do them over again I learned to leave early enough to get where Irsquom going 15 minutes early just in case something happened along the way to delay you I learned to be honest when dealing with other people and not to cheat them in business and to be honest in my professional conversations and dealings with others

I miss him terribly but see so much of him in me And then there are my three sons I can see a lot of him in them Teachings that he passed on to me have now been passed on to them For they are honest hardworking young men who give everything they have to whatever project or job they are doing When they are working on a project they give it their all and make sure it is right the first time they do it All three of them are in some type of service to others for their profession James is a public school teacher Jason a Lieutenant Colonel in the Air force and Jerry is a profes-sional firefighter along with his wife who also is a professional fire fighter

Fathersrsquo Day is Sunday If your father is still alive be sure to spend some time with him either in person or if he is too far away to visit in per-son be sure to call him talk to him and tell him how much he means to you and how much you love him There are many of us who can no longer do that Love you and miss you Dad

(Bayboro) June06 2019 ndash US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Amy Coffey in Pamlico County reminds farmers and landowners that FSA is hosting an informational meeting regarding the 2019 County Committee Election process on December 09 2019 at 800 am at the Pamlico County FSA Office located at 13724 HWY 55 in Alliance Producers including minority women and new farmers are encouraged to attend the meeting and participate in the 2019 election

The county committee nomination period began on June 14 2019 Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the Pamlico County FSA office by close of business on Aug 1 2019

For election purposes counties are divided into local administrative areas (LAA) Each LAA

nominates and elects one producer to serve a three-year term on the FSA county committee

Each year an election is held in an LAA where a committee memberrsquos three-year term is expiring For 2019 an election will be held in LAA 3 which includes Arapahoe and Oriental

ldquoFarmers and ranchers in LAA 3 are urged to participate in this yearrsquos county committee elections by nominating candidates by the Aug 1 2019 deadlinerdquo said Coffey ldquoCounty committees are unique to FSA and allow producers to have a voice on federal farm program implementation at the local levelrdquo

To be eligible to serve on an FSA county committee a person must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the LAA in which

the person is a candidateFarmers and ranchers may nominate themselves

or others Organizations representing minorities and women also may nominate candidates To become a candidate an eligible individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination form The form and other information about FSA county committee elections is available at fsausdagovelections Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the local

USDA service center by close of business on Aug 1 2019

Nationwide there are approximately 7800 farmers and ranchers serving on FSA county committees These individuals make decisions on disaster and conservation programs emergency programs commodity price support loan programs and other agricultural issues Committees consist of three to 11 members who are elected by eligible producers

Some people may recall the old folk hero Johnny Appleseed roaming the country side wearing a tin pot for a hat and establishing apple

plantings wherever he went Look around Pamlico County and yoursquoll quickly notice that Johnny Appleseedrsquos influence did not reach into our area Apple trees can be grown in Pamlico County but our hot humid and saturated ground conditions can make it quite difficult In this weekrsquos article Irsquoll discuss some ways that we can make Johnny proud and help those apple trees survive

Apples amp Pears

The most important thing to remember with apples and most any other fruit variety is that they are not aquatic plants Wet soils conditions will kill plants or lead to slow decline and a disappointing experience To overcome this issue locate either a well-drained growing location or create mounds or rows for trees to grow on Mounds or rows several inches tall (6-18-inches) and several feet wide (4-8-feet) may be needed Use native soil where possible and remember that raised mounds or rows will dry out faster than surrounding conditions Irrigation may be needed especially during drought

Apple and pear trees are typically produced as grafted plants ensuring a particular rootstock underneath and fruit variety on top Plants grown from seed will not come true to type Plant trees with graft unions at least 2-inches above the soil line Plants sold as dwarf or semi-dwarf provide no context to their potential height and most trees will require pruning to maintain a desired height Dwarfing characteristics is manipulated by the rootstock selection (M9 MM106 Bartlett OHxF etc) that reduces the typical plant height by a comparable percentage to a seedling plant However this varies among rootstock choices and plants will not stop growing at a predetermined height

Choose varieties and rootstocks that provide resistance to diseases like cedar-apple rust fireblight or powdery mildew Some suggestions include Ginger Gold Gala Pink Lady Empire Golden Delicious Keiffer Moonglow and Harvest Queen Not every variety carries disease resistance but apples and pears will need more than one variety planted together to ensure cross pollination for fruit set

Training and pruning should start as soon as you plant With plants that are young whips (a slender sapling with little to no limbs) a heading cut is made near the location you want the first set of branches to occur (knee height from ground level) Young buds will grow below this cut When this growth reaches 3-4-inches you can select the most vigorous upright branch to form your leader (central trunk that grows vertically) and select 3-4 lateral growing branches to form your first scaffold of branches Essentially you are choosing branches to reach out around the tree that will not compete with each other This process gets repeated for several years (once

per year in late winter) until you form a tree of desired height that has several scaffolds of branches spaced 18-24-inches apart vertically This allows light and air penetration to help decrease disease pressure

For more detailed information about pruning fruit trees NC State Extension has a publication titled ldquoTraining and Pruning Fruit Trees in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsuedutraining-and-pruning-fruit-trees-in-north-carolina

Donrsquot be in a rush to fertilizer newly planted trees Allow time for roots to form before large amounts of fertilizer are applied A soil test taken before planting is recommend but a general rule of thumb for fertilization is 075-10 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer for each year of tree age broadcast around the tree no closer than 6-inches from the trunk during late winter

Disease and insects are common for apples and pears Cedar-apple rust is one of the most common diseases causing rust colored spots to form on leaves and the potential for premature leaf drop Fungicide and insecticide applications are highly recommended if blemish free fruit is desired Proper thinning will also help Thin fruit when approximately nickel size with single fruit spaced 6-8-inches apart This will require the removal of many fruits The plant will compensate by producing larger fruit Combination fruit tree sprays with a premixed insecticide and fungicide are easier for homeowners to apply These should be applied following petal fall in early spring Follow the label directions but understand repeat applications will be needed There are limited options for organic products Horticultural oils insecticidal soaps copper and sulfur may provide some protection However timing is far more critical with these products to achieve acceptable control No matter your management strategy gardeners in Pamlico County will have insect and disease issues Learn to accept some damage and imperfection If not you will be far happier buying fruit from the grocery store

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

The museum is delighted to announce its new exhibit featuring mermaids of all types shapes and sizes Mermaids became popular because Hans Christian Andersons story The Little Mermaid However mermaids sirens and mermen have been around since the time of ancient Greece Visit the museum and learn about mermaids in mythology literature and film while taking a look at the mermaid collections from several area residents

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

Fatherrsquos Day is a cel-ebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood paternal bonds and the influ-ence of fathers in soci-ety In Catholic Europe it has been celebrated

on March 19 (Saint Josephrsquos Day) since the Middle Ages This celebra-tion was brought by the Spanish and Portuguese to Latin America where March 19 is often still used for it though many countries in Europe and the Americas have adopted the US date which is the third Sunday of June It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world most commonly in the months of March April and June according to the home nationrsquos customs

Fatherrsquos Day was not celebrat-ed in the US outside Catholic tra-ditions until the 20th century As a civic celebration in the US it was inaugurated in the early 20th century to complement Motherrsquos Day by cele-brating fathers and male parenting

After Anna Jarvisrsquo successful pro-motion of Motherrsquos Day in Grafton West Virginia the first observance of a ldquoFatherrsquos Dayrdquo was held on July 5 1908 in Fairmont West Virginia in the Williams Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church South now known as Central United Methodist Church Grace Golden Clayton morning her father in December 1907 when the Monongah Mining Disaster in near-by Monongah killed 361 men 250 of them fathers leaving around a thousand fatherless children Clayton suggested that her pastor Robert Thomas Webb honor all those fathers Claytonrsquos event did not have reper-cussions outside Fairmont for several reasons among them the city was overwhelmed by other events the cel-ebration was never promoted outside the town itself and no proclamation of it was made by the city council Also two events overshadowed this event the celebration of Independence Day July 4 1908 with 12000 attendants and several shows including a hot air balloon event which took over the headlines in the following days and the death of a 16-year-old girl on July 4 The local church and council were overwhelmed and they did not even think of promoting the event and it was not celebrated again for many years The original sermon was not reproduced by the press and it was lost Finally Clayton was a quiet per-son who never promoted the event and never talked to other persons about it

On June 19 1910 a Fatherrsquos Day celebration was held at the YMCA in Spokane Washington by Sonora Smart Dodd Her father the Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart was a single parent who raised his six children there She was also a mem-ber of Old Centenary Presbyterian Church (now Knox Presbyterian Church) where she first proposed the idea After hearing a sermon about Jarvisrsquo Motherrsquos Day in 1909 at Central Methodist Episcopal Church she told her pastor that fathers should have a similar holiday to honor them Although she initially suggested June 5 her fatherrsquos birthday the pastors did not have enough time to prepare their sermons and the celebration was deferred to the third Sunday in

June Several local clergymen accept-ed the idea and on June 19 1910 the first Fatherrsquos Day ldquosermons honoring fathers were presented throughout the cityrdquo

However in the 1920s Dodd stopped promoting the celebration because she was studying at the Art Institute of Chicago and it faded into relative obscurity even in Spokane In the 1930s Dodd returned to Spokane and started promoting the celebration again raising awareness at a national level She had the help of those trade groups that would benefit most from the holiday for example the manu-facturers of ties tobacco pipes and any traditional present for fathers By 1938 she had the help of the Fatherrsquos Day Council founded by the New York Associated Menrsquos Wear Retailers to consolidate and systematize the holidayrsquos commercial promotion Americans resisted the holiday for its first few decades viewing it as noth-ing more than an attempt by mer-chants to replicate the commercial success of Motherrsquos Day and newspa-pers frequently featured cynical and sarcastic attacks and jokes However the said merchants remained resilient and even incorporated these attacks into their advertisements By the mid-1980s the Fatherrsquos Day Council wrote ldquo() [Fatherrsquos Day] has become a Second Christmas for all the menrsquos gift-oriented industriesrdquo

A bill to accord national recogni-tion of the holiday was introduced in Congress in 1913 In 1916 President went to Spokane to speak at a Fatherrsquos Day celebration and he wanted to make it an officially recognized feder-al holiday but Congress resisted fear-ing that it would become commer-cialized The President recommend-ed in 1924 that the day be observed throughout the entire nation but he stopped short at issuing a national proclamation Two earlier attempts to formally recognize the holiday had been defeated by Congress In 1957 Maine Senator Margaret Chase Smith wrote a Fatherrsquos Day proposal accusing Congress of ignoring fathers for 40 years while honoring moth-ers thus ldquo[singling] out just one of our two parentsrdquo In 1966 President Lyndon B Johnson issued the first presidential proclamation honoring fathers designating the third Sunday in June as Fatherrsquos Day Six years later the day was made a perma-nent national holiday when President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972

The relationship between fathers and sons is often precarious at the best and confrontational at the worst Many times there seems to be compe-tition between father and son for the affection of the mother in the house Maybe it is just testosterone acting up and like two male animals vying for territory by fighting it out father and son tend to battle it out through a fight of wills and argument

I grew up like a lot of sons with a poor relationship with my dad We were so different there was no com-mon ground I canrsquot say whose fault it was it just was what it was He spent little time with me and I guess I was ok with that I spent a lot of time alone reading and dad didnrsquot read much beyond the newspaper He worked hard six days a week to provide for us leaving the house

before we got up in the mornings and coming back home around 530 or 6 pm By the time he got home he was tired and didnrsquot have much energy or interest in playing ball or anything else So there was little interaction between me and him

This is the basic relationship until after mom passed away in 1995 When that happened Dad began to depend more on me to get him to the doctorrsquos office and I began spend-ing more and more time with him After he developed cancer I spent a lot more time with him and began taking care of him as his cancer got worse Finally in November I moved in with him to look after him espe-cially as he began to fall more and more in the house I would cook three meals a day keep the house clean and sit with him at night watching TV and talking I began to tape record our conversations on his growing up and childhood and his experiences in World War II He enjoyed those conversations tremendously and he enjoyed our time together as did I As he got worse I began to give him his baths and take care of his physical needs as well as the cooking etc As a result we got even closer as we talked about his last months and what he wanted to happen in the future I stayed with him and took care of him until he passed away in late January

The Bible says to honor thy father and mother I think I did that rather well and wouldnrsquot do a thing differ-ently He had his independence right up until his last few months and yet I was there to help him as he needed it I learned so much from him over the years even though we werenrsquot close I learned to do things right the first time or you would have to do them over again I learned to leave early enough to get where Irsquom going 15 minutes early just in case something happened along the way to delay you I learned to be honest when dealing with other people and not to cheat them in business and to be honest in my professional conversations and dealings with others

I miss him terribly but see so much of him in me And then there are my three sons I can see a lot of him in them Teachings that he passed on to me have now been passed on to them For they are honest hardworking young men who give everything they have to whatever project or job they are doing When they are working on a project they give it their all and make sure it is right the first time they do it All three of them are in some type of service to others for their profession James is a public school teacher Jason a Lieutenant Colonel in the Air force and Jerry is a profes-sional firefighter along with his wife who also is a professional fire fighter

Fathersrsquo Day is Sunday If your father is still alive be sure to spend some time with him either in person or if he is too far away to visit in per-son be sure to call him talk to him and tell him how much he means to you and how much you love him There are many of us who can no longer do that Love you and miss you Dad

The county committee nomination period began on June 14 2019 Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the Pamlico County FSA office by close of business on Aug 1 2019

For election purposes counties are divided into local administrative areas (LAA) Each LAA

nominates and elects one producer to serve a three-year term on the FSA county committee

Each year an election is held in an LAA where a committee memberrsquos three-year term is expiring For 2019 an election will be held in LAA 3 which includes Arapahoe and Oriental

ldquoFarmers and ranchers in LAA 3 are urged to participate in this yearrsquos county committee elections by nominating candidates by the Aug 1 2019 deadlinerdquo said Coffey ldquoCounty committees are unique to FSA and allow producers to have a voice on federal farm program implementation at the local levelrdquo

To be eligible to serve on an FSA county committee a person must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the LAA in which

the person is a candidateFarmers and ranchers may nominate themselves

or others Organizations representing minorities and women also may nominate candidates To become a candidate an eligible individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination form The form and other information about FSA county committee elections is available at fsausdagovelections Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the local

USDA service center by close of business on Aug 1 2019

Nationwide there are approximately 7800 farmers and ranchers serving on FSA county committees These individuals make decisions on disaster and conservation programs emergency programs commodity price support loan programs and other agricultural issues Committees consist of three to 11 members who are elected by eligible producers

Some people may recall the old folk hero Johnny Appleseed roaming the country side wearing a tin pot for a hat and establishing apple

plantings wherever he went Look around Pamlico County and yoursquoll quickly notice that Johnny Appleseedrsquos influence did not reach into our area Apple trees can be grown in Pamlico County but our hot humid and saturated ground conditions can make it quite difficult In this weekrsquos article Irsquoll discuss some ways that we can make Johnny proud and help those apple trees survive

Apples amp Pears

The most important thing to remember with apples and most any other fruit variety is that they are not aquatic plants Wet soils conditions will kill plants or lead to slow decline and a disappointing experience To overcome this issue locate either a well-drained growing location or create mounds or rows for trees to grow on Mounds or rows several inches tall (6-18-inches) and several feet wide (4-8-feet) may be needed Use native soil where possible and remember that raised mounds or rows will dry out faster than surrounding conditions Irrigation may be needed especially during drought

Apple and pear trees are typically produced as grafted plants ensuring a particular rootstock underneath and fruit variety on top Plants grown from seed will not come true to type Plant trees with graft unions at least 2-inches above the soil line Plants sold as dwarf or semi-dwarf provide no context to their potential height and most trees will require pruning to maintain a desired height Dwarfing characteristics is manipulated by the rootstock selection (M9 MM106 Bartlett OHxF etc) that reduces the typical plant height by a comparable percentage to a seedling plant However this varies among rootstock choices and plants will not stop growing at a predetermined height

Choose varieties and rootstocks that provide resistance to diseases like cedar-apple rust fireblight or powdery mildew Some suggestions include Ginger Gold Gala Pink Lady Empire Golden Delicious Keiffer Moonglow and Harvest Queen Not every variety carries disease resistance but apples and pears will need more than one variety planted together to ensure cross pollination for fruit set

Training and pruning should start as soon as you plant With plants that are young whips (a slender sapling with little to no limbs) a heading cut is made near the location you want the first set of branches to occur (knee height from ground level) Young buds will grow below this cut When this growth reaches 3-4-inches you can select the most vigorous upright branch to form your leader (central trunk that grows vertically) and select 3-4 lateral growing branches to form your first scaffold of branches Essentially you are choosing branches to reach out around the tree that will not compete with each other This process gets repeated for several years (once

per year in late winter) until you form a tree of desired height that has several scaffolds of branches spaced 18-24-inches apart vertically This allows light and air penetration to help decrease disease pressure

For more detailed information about pruning fruit trees NC State Extension has a publication titled ldquoTraining and Pruning Fruit Trees in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsuedutraining-and-pruning-fruit-trees-in-north-carolina

Donrsquot be in a rush to fertilizer newly planted trees Allow time for roots to form before large amounts of fertilizer are applied A soil test taken before planting is recommend but a general rule of thumb for fertilization is 075-10 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer for each year of tree age broadcast around the tree no closer than 6-inches from the trunk during late winter

Disease and insects are common for apples and pears Cedar-apple rust is one of the most common diseases causing rust colored spots to form on leaves and the potential for premature leaf drop Fungicide and insecticide applications are highly recommended if blemish free fruit is desired Proper thinning will also help Thin fruit when approximately nickel size with single fruit spaced 6-8-inches apart This will require the removal of many fruits The plant will compensate by producing larger fruit Combination fruit tree sprays with a premixed insecticide and fungicide are easier for homeowners to apply These should be applied following petal fall in early spring Follow the label directions but understand repeat applications will be needed There are limited options for organic products Horticultural oils insecticidal soaps copper and sulfur may provide some protection However timing is far more critical with these products to achieve acceptable control No matter your management strategy gardeners in Pamlico County will have insect and disease issues Learn to accept some damage and imperfection If not you will be far happier buying fruit from the grocery store

For more information on growing apples and pears in Pamlico County review the NC State Extension publication titled ldquoProducing Tree Fruit in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsueduproducing-tree-fruit-for-home-use You might also like to review the ldquoTree Fruit and Nutsrdquo chapter from the NC State Extension Master Gardener Handbook httpscontentcesncsueduextension-gardener-handbook15-tree-fruit-and-nuts

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

The museum is delighted to announce its new exhibit featuring mermaids of all types shapes and sizes Mermaids became popular because Hans Christian Andersons story The Little Mermaid However mermaids sirens and mermen have been around since the time of ancient Greece Visit the museum and learn about mermaids in mythology literature and film while taking a look at the mermaid collections from several area residents

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

Fatherrsquos Day is a cel-ebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood paternal bonds and the influ-ence of fathers in soci-ety In Catholic Europe it has been celebrated

on March 19 (Saint Josephrsquos Day) since the Middle Ages This celebra-tion was brought by the Spanish and Portuguese to Latin America where March 19 is often still used for it though many countries in Europe and the Americas have adopted the US date which is the third Sunday of June It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world most commonly in the months of March April and June according to the home nationrsquos customs

Fatherrsquos Day was not celebrat-ed in the US outside Catholic tra-ditions until the 20th century As a civic celebration in the US it was inaugurated in the early 20th century to complement Motherrsquos Day by cele-brating fathers and male parenting

After Anna Jarvisrsquo successful pro-motion of Motherrsquos Day in Grafton West Virginia the first observance of a ldquoFatherrsquos Dayrdquo was held on July 5 1908 in Fairmont West Virginia in the Williams Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church South now known as Central United Methodist Church Grace Golden Clayton morning her father in December 1907 when the Monongah Mining Disaster in near-by Monongah killed 361 men 250 of them fathers leaving around a thousand fatherless children Clayton suggested that her pastor Robert Thomas Webb honor all those fathers Claytonrsquos event did not have reper-cussions outside Fairmont for several reasons among them the city was overwhelmed by other events the cel-ebration was never promoted outside the town itself and no proclamation of it was made by the city council Also two events overshadowed this event the celebration of Independence Day July 4 1908 with 12000 attendants and several shows including a hot air balloon event which took over the headlines in the following days and the death of a 16-year-old girl on July 4 The local church and council were overwhelmed and they did not even think of promoting the event and it was not celebrated again for many years The original sermon was not reproduced by the press and it was lost Finally Clayton was a quiet per-son who never promoted the event and never talked to other persons about it

On June 19 1910 a Fatherrsquos Day celebration was held at the YMCA in Spokane Washington by Sonora Smart Dodd Her father the Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart was a single parent who raised his six children there She was also a mem-ber of Old Centenary Presbyterian Church (now Knox Presbyterian Church) where she first proposed the idea After hearing a sermon about Jarvisrsquo Motherrsquos Day in 1909 at Central Methodist Episcopal Church she told her pastor that fathers should have a similar holiday to honor them Although she initially suggested June 5 her fatherrsquos birthday the pastors did not have enough time to prepare their sermons and the celebration was deferred to the third Sunday in

June Several local clergymen accept-ed the idea and on June 19 1910 the first Fatherrsquos Day ldquosermons honoring fathers were presented throughout the cityrdquo

However in the 1920s Dodd stopped promoting the celebration because she was studying at the Art Institute of Chicago and it faded into relative obscurity even in Spokane In the 1930s Dodd returned to Spokane and started promoting the celebration again raising awareness at a national level She had the help of those trade groups that would benefit most from the holiday for example the manu-facturers of ties tobacco pipes and any traditional present for fathers By 1938 she had the help of the Fatherrsquos Day Council founded by the New York Associated Menrsquos Wear Retailers to consolidate and systematize the holidayrsquos commercial promotion Americans resisted the holiday for its first few decades viewing it as noth-ing more than an attempt by mer-chants to replicate the commercial success of Motherrsquos Day and newspa-pers frequently featured cynical and sarcastic attacks and jokes However the said merchants remained resilient and even incorporated these attacks into their advertisements By the mid-1980s the Fatherrsquos Day Council wrote ldquo() [Fatherrsquos Day] has become a Second Christmas for all the menrsquos gift-oriented industriesrdquo

A bill to accord national recogni-tion of the holiday was introduced in Congress in 1913 In 1916 President went to Spokane to speak at a Fatherrsquos Day celebration and he wanted to make it an officially recognized feder-al holiday but Congress resisted fear-ing that it would become commer-cialized The President recommend-ed in 1924 that the day be observed throughout the entire nation but he stopped short at issuing a national proclamation Two earlier attempts to formally recognize the holiday had been defeated by Congress In 1957 Maine Senator Margaret Chase Smith wrote a Fatherrsquos Day proposal accusing Congress of ignoring fathers for 40 years while honoring moth-ers thus ldquo[singling] out just one of our two parentsrdquo In 1966 President Lyndon B Johnson issued the first presidential proclamation honoring fathers designating the third Sunday in June as Fatherrsquos Day Six years later the day was made a perma-nent national holiday when President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972

The relationship between fathers and sons is often precarious at the best and confrontational at the worst Many times there seems to be compe-tition between father and son for the affection of the mother in the house Maybe it is just testosterone acting up and like two male animals vying for territory by fighting it out father and son tend to battle it out through a fight of wills and argument

I grew up like a lot of sons with a poor relationship with my dad We were so different there was no com-mon ground I canrsquot say whose fault it was it just was what it was He spent little time with me and I guess I was ok with that I spent a lot of time alone reading and dad didnrsquot read much beyond the newspaper He worked hard six days a week to provide for us leaving the house

before we got up in the mornings and coming back home around 530 or 6 pm By the time he got home he was tired and didnrsquot have much energy or interest in playing ball or anything else So there was little interaction between me and him

This is the basic relationship until after mom passed away in 1995 When that happened Dad began to depend more on me to get him to the doctorrsquos office and I began spend-ing more and more time with him After he developed cancer I spent a lot more time with him and began taking care of him as his cancer got worse Finally in November I moved in with him to look after him espe-cially as he began to fall more and more in the house I would cook three meals a day keep the house clean and sit with him at night watching TV and talking I began to tape record our conversations on his growing up and childhood and his experiences in World War II He enjoyed those conversations tremendously and he enjoyed our time together as did I As he got worse I began to give him his baths and take care of his physical needs as well as the cooking etc As a result we got even closer as we talked about his last months and what he wanted to happen in the future I stayed with him and took care of him until he passed away in late January

The Bible says to honor thy father and mother I think I did that rather well and wouldnrsquot do a thing differ-ently He had his independence right up until his last few months and yet I was there to help him as he needed it I learned so much from him over the years even though we werenrsquot close I learned to do things right the first time or you would have to do them over again I learned to leave early enough to get where Irsquom going 15 minutes early just in case something happened along the way to delay you I learned to be honest when dealing with other people and not to cheat them in business and to be honest in my professional conversations and dealings with others

I miss him terribly but see so much of him in me And then there are my three sons I can see a lot of him in them Teachings that he passed on to me have now been passed on to them For they are honest hardworking young men who give everything they have to whatever project or job they are doing When they are working on a project they give it their all and make sure it is right the first time they do it All three of them are in some type of service to others for their profession James is a public school teacher Jason a Lieutenant Colonel in the Air force and Jerry is a profes-sional firefighter along with his wife who also is a professional fire fighter

Fathersrsquo Day is Sunday If your father is still alive be sure to spend some time with him either in person or if he is too far away to visit in per-son be sure to call him talk to him and tell him how much he means to you and how much you love him There are many of us who can no longer do that Love you and miss you Dad

(Bayboro) June06 2019 ndash US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Amy Coffey in Pamlico County reminds farmers and landowners that FSA is hosting an informational meeting regarding the 2019 County Committee Election process on December 09 2019 at 800 am at the Pamlico County FSA Office located at 13724 HWY 55 in Alliance Producers including minority women and new farmers are encouraged to attend the meeting and participate in the 2019 election

The county committee nomination period began on June 14 2019 Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the Pamlico County FSA office by close of business on Aug 1 2019

For election purposes counties are divided into local administrative areas (LAA) Each LAA

nominates and elects one producer to serve a three-year term on the FSA county committee

Each year an election is held in an LAA where a committee memberrsquos three-year term is expiring For 2019 an election will be held in LAA 3 which includes Arapahoe and Oriental

ldquoFarmers and ranchers in LAA 3 are urged to participate in this yearrsquos county committee elections by nominating candidates by the Aug 1 2019 deadlinerdquo said Coffey ldquoCounty committees are unique to FSA and allow producers to have a voice on federal farm program implementation at the local levelrdquo

To be eligible to serve on an FSA county committee a person must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the LAA in which

the person is a candidateFarmers and ranchers may nominate themselves

or others Organizations representing minorities and women also may nominate candidates To become a candidate an eligible individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination form The form and other information about FSA county committee elections is available at fsausdagovelections Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the local

USDA service center by close of business on Aug 1 2019

Nationwide there are approximately 7800 farmers and ranchers serving on FSA county committees These individuals make decisions on disaster and conservation programs emergency programs commodity price support loan programs and other agricultural issues Committees consist of three to 11 members who are elected by eligible producers

Some people may recall the old folk hero Johnny Appleseed roaming the country side wearing a tin pot for a hat and establishing apple

plantings wherever he went Look around Pamlico County and yoursquoll quickly notice that Johnny Appleseedrsquos influence did not reach into our area Apple trees can be grown in Pamlico County but our hot humid and saturated ground conditions can make it quite difficult In this weekrsquos article Irsquoll discuss some ways that we can make Johnny proud and help those apple trees survive

Apples amp Pears

The most important thing to remember with apples and most any other fruit variety is that they are not aquatic plants Wet soils conditions will kill plants or lead to slow decline and a disappointing experience To overcome this issue locate either a well-drained growing location or create mounds or rows for trees to grow on Mounds or rows several inches tall (6-18-inches) and several feet wide (4-8-feet) may be needed Use native soil where possible and remember that raised mounds or rows will dry out faster than surrounding conditions Irrigation may be needed especially during drought

Apple and pear trees are typically produced as grafted plants ensuring a particular rootstock underneath and fruit variety on top Plants grown from seed will not come true to type Plant trees with graft unions at least 2-inches above the soil line Plants sold as dwarf or semi-dwarf provide no context to their potential height and most trees will require pruning to maintain a desired height Dwarfing characteristics is manipulated by the rootstock selection (M9 MM106 Bartlett OHxF etc) that reduces the typical plant height by a comparable percentage to a seedling plant However this varies among rootstock choices and plants will not stop growing at a predetermined height

Choose varieties and rootstocks that provide resistance to diseases like cedar-apple rust fireblight or powdery mildew Some suggestions include Ginger Gold Gala Pink Lady Empire Golden Delicious Keiffer Moonglow and Harvest Queen Not every variety carries disease resistance but apples and pears will need more than one variety planted together to ensure cross pollination for fruit set

Training and pruning should start as soon as you plant With plants that are young whips (a slender sapling with little to no limbs) a heading cut is made near the location you want the first set of branches to occur (knee height from ground level) Young buds will grow below this cut When this growth reaches 3-4-inches you can select the most vigorous upright branch to form your leader (central trunk that grows vertically) and select 3-4 lateral growing branches to form your first scaffold of branches Essentially you are choosing branches to reach out around the tree that will not compete with each other This process gets repeated for several years (once

per year in late winter) until you form a tree of desired height that has several scaffolds of branches spaced 18-24-inches apart vertically This allows light and air penetration to help decrease disease pressure

For more detailed information about pruning fruit trees NC State Extension has a publication titled ldquoTraining and Pruning Fruit Trees in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsuedutraining-and-pruning-fruit-trees-in-north-carolina

Donrsquot be in a rush to fertilizer newly planted trees Allow time for roots to form before large amounts of fertilizer are applied A soil test taken before planting is recommend but a general rule of thumb for fertilization is 075-10 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer for each year of tree age broadcast around the tree no closer than 6-inches from the trunk during late winter

Disease and insects are common for apples and pears Cedar-apple rust is one of the most common diseases causing rust colored spots to form on leaves and the potential for premature leaf drop Fungicide and insecticide applications are highly recommended if blemish free fruit is desired Proper thinning will also help Thin fruit when approximately nickel size with single fruit spaced 6-8-inches apart This will require the removal of many fruits The plant will compensate by producing larger fruit Combination fruit tree sprays with a premixed insecticide and fungicide are easier for homeowners to apply These should be applied following petal fall in early spring Follow the label directions but understand repeat applications will be needed There are limited options for organic products Horticultural oils insecticidal soaps copper and sulfur may provide some protection However timing is far more critical with these products to achieve acceptable control No matter your management strategy gardeners in Pamlico County will have insect and disease issues Learn to accept some damage and imperfection If not you will be far happier buying fruit from the grocery store

For more information on growing apples and pears in Pamlico County review the NC State Extension publication titled ldquoProducing Tree Fruit in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsueduproducing-tree-fruit-for-home-use You might also like to review the ldquoTree Fruit and Nutsrdquo chapter from the NC State Extension Master Gardener Handbook httpscontentcesncsueduextension-gardener-handbook15-tree-fruit-and-nuts

In my next article Irsquoll examine growing peaches in Pamlico County Peaches can be a challenging plant to grow but quality fruit can be produced in your backyard If you have questions related to gardening in Pamlico County please give me a call at 252-745-4121 or email me at Daniel_simpsonncsuedu

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

Fatherrsquos Day is a cel-ebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood paternal bonds and the influ-ence of fathers in soci-ety In Catholic Europe it has been celebrated

on March 19 (Saint Josephrsquos Day) since the Middle Ages This celebra-tion was brought by the Spanish and Portuguese to Latin America where March 19 is often still used for it though many countries in Europe and the Americas have adopted the US date which is the third Sunday of June It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world most commonly in the months of March April and June according to the home nationrsquos customs

Fatherrsquos Day was not celebrat-ed in the US outside Catholic tra-ditions until the 20th century As a civic celebration in the US it was inaugurated in the early 20th century to complement Motherrsquos Day by cele-brating fathers and male parenting

After Anna Jarvisrsquo successful pro-motion of Motherrsquos Day in Grafton West Virginia the first observance of a ldquoFatherrsquos Dayrdquo was held on July 5 1908 in Fairmont West Virginia in the Williams Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church South now known as Central United Methodist Church Grace Golden Clayton morning her father in December 1907 when the Monongah Mining Disaster in near-by Monongah killed 361 men 250 of them fathers leaving around a thousand fatherless children Clayton suggested that her pastor Robert Thomas Webb honor all those fathers Claytonrsquos event did not have reper-cussions outside Fairmont for several reasons among them the city was overwhelmed by other events the cel-ebration was never promoted outside the town itself and no proclamation of it was made by the city council Also two events overshadowed this event the celebration of Independence Day July 4 1908 with 12000 attendants and several shows including a hot air balloon event which took over the headlines in the following days and the death of a 16-year-old girl on July 4 The local church and council were overwhelmed and they did not even think of promoting the event and it was not celebrated again for many years The original sermon was not reproduced by the press and it was lost Finally Clayton was a quiet per-son who never promoted the event and never talked to other persons about it

On June 19 1910 a Fatherrsquos Day celebration was held at the YMCA in Spokane Washington by Sonora Smart Dodd Her father the Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart was a single parent who raised his six children there She was also a mem-ber of Old Centenary Presbyterian Church (now Knox Presbyterian Church) where she first proposed the idea After hearing a sermon about Jarvisrsquo Motherrsquos Day in 1909 at Central Methodist Episcopal Church she told her pastor that fathers should have a similar holiday to honor them Although she initially suggested June 5 her fatherrsquos birthday the pastors did not have enough time to prepare their sermons and the celebration was deferred to the third Sunday in

June Several local clergymen accept-ed the idea and on June 19 1910 the first Fatherrsquos Day ldquosermons honoring fathers were presented throughout the cityrdquo

However in the 1920s Dodd stopped promoting the celebration because she was studying at the Art Institute of Chicago and it faded into relative obscurity even in Spokane In the 1930s Dodd returned to Spokane and started promoting the celebration again raising awareness at a national level She had the help of those trade groups that would benefit most from the holiday for example the manu-facturers of ties tobacco pipes and any traditional present for fathers By 1938 she had the help of the Fatherrsquos Day Council founded by the New York Associated Menrsquos Wear Retailers to consolidate and systematize the holidayrsquos commercial promotion Americans resisted the holiday for its first few decades viewing it as noth-ing more than an attempt by mer-chants to replicate the commercial success of Motherrsquos Day and newspa-pers frequently featured cynical and sarcastic attacks and jokes However the said merchants remained resilient and even incorporated these attacks into their advertisements By the mid-1980s the Fatherrsquos Day Council wrote ldquo() [Fatherrsquos Day] has become a Second Christmas for all the menrsquos gift-oriented industriesrdquo

A bill to accord national recogni-tion of the holiday was introduced in Congress in 1913 In 1916 President went to Spokane to speak at a Fatherrsquos Day celebration and he wanted to make it an officially recognized feder-al holiday but Congress resisted fear-ing that it would become commer-cialized The President recommend-ed in 1924 that the day be observed throughout the entire nation but he stopped short at issuing a national proclamation Two earlier attempts to formally recognize the holiday had been defeated by Congress In 1957 Maine Senator Margaret Chase Smith wrote a Fatherrsquos Day proposal accusing Congress of ignoring fathers for 40 years while honoring moth-ers thus ldquo[singling] out just one of our two parentsrdquo In 1966 President Lyndon B Johnson issued the first presidential proclamation honoring fathers designating the third Sunday in June as Fatherrsquos Day Six years later the day was made a perma-nent national holiday when President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972

The relationship between fathers and sons is often precarious at the best and confrontational at the worst Many times there seems to be compe-tition between father and son for the affection of the mother in the house Maybe it is just testosterone acting up and like two male animals vying for territory by fighting it out father and son tend to battle it out through a fight of wills and argument

I grew up like a lot of sons with a poor relationship with my dad We were so different there was no com-mon ground I canrsquot say whose fault it was it just was what it was He spent little time with me and I guess I was ok with that I spent a lot of time alone reading and dad didnrsquot read much beyond the newspaper He worked hard six days a week to provide for us leaving the house

before we got up in the mornings and coming back home around 530 or 6 pm By the time he got home he was tired and didnrsquot have much energy or interest in playing ball or anything else So there was little interaction between me and him

This is the basic relationship until after mom passed away in 1995 When that happened Dad began to depend more on me to get him to the doctorrsquos office and I began spend-ing more and more time with him After he developed cancer I spent a lot more time with him and began taking care of him as his cancer got worse Finally in November I moved in with him to look after him espe-cially as he began to fall more and more in the house I would cook three meals a day keep the house clean and sit with him at night watching TV and talking I began to tape record our conversations on his growing up and childhood and his experiences in World War II He enjoyed those conversations tremendously and he enjoyed our time together as did I As he got worse I began to give him his baths and take care of his physical needs as well as the cooking etc As a result we got even closer as we talked about his last months and what he wanted to happen in the future I stayed with him and took care of him until he passed away in late January

The Bible says to honor thy father and mother I think I did that rather well and wouldnrsquot do a thing differ-ently He had his independence right up until his last few months and yet I was there to help him as he needed it I learned so much from him over the years even though we werenrsquot close I learned to do things right the first time or you would have to do them over again I learned to leave early enough to get where Irsquom going 15 minutes early just in case something happened along the way to delay you I learned to be honest when dealing with other people and not to cheat them in business and to be honest in my professional conversations and dealings with others

I miss him terribly but see so much of him in me And then there are my three sons I can see a lot of him in them Teachings that he passed on to me have now been passed on to them For they are honest hardworking young men who give everything they have to whatever project or job they are doing When they are working on a project they give it their all and make sure it is right the first time they do it All three of them are in some type of service to others for their profession James is a public school teacher Jason a Lieutenant Colonel in the Air force and Jerry is a profes-sional firefighter along with his wife who also is a professional fire fighter

Fathersrsquo Day is Sunday If your father is still alive be sure to spend some time with him either in person or if he is too far away to visit in per-son be sure to call him talk to him and tell him how much he means to you and how much you love him There are many of us who can no longer do that Love you and miss you Dad

(Bayboro) June06 2019 ndash US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Amy Coffey in Pamlico County reminds farmers and landowners that FSA is hosting an informational meeting regarding the 2019 County Committee Election process on December 09 2019 at 800 am at the Pamlico County FSA Office located at 13724 HWY 55 in Alliance Producers including minority women and new farmers are encouraged to attend the meeting and participate in the 2019 election

The county committee nomination period began on June 14 2019 Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the Pamlico County FSA office by close of business on Aug 1 2019

For election purposes counties are divided into local administrative areas (LAA) Each LAA

nominates and elects one producer to serve a three-year term on the FSA county committee

Each year an election is held in an LAA where a committee memberrsquos three-year term is expiring For 2019 an election will be held in LAA 3 which includes Arapahoe and Oriental

ldquoFarmers and ranchers in LAA 3 are urged to participate in this yearrsquos county committee elections by nominating candidates by the Aug 1 2019 deadlinerdquo said Coffey ldquoCounty committees are unique to FSA and allow producers to have a voice on federal farm program implementation at the local levelrdquo

To be eligible to serve on an FSA county committee a person must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the LAA in which

the person is a candidateFarmers and ranchers may nominate themselves

or others Organizations representing minorities and women also may nominate candidates To become a candidate an eligible individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination form The form and other information about FSA county committee elections is available at fsausdagovelections Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the local

USDA service center by close of business on Aug 1 2019

Nationwide there are approximately 7800 farmers and ranchers serving on FSA county committees These individuals make decisions on disaster and conservation programs emergency programs commodity price support loan programs and other agricultural issues Committees consist of three to 11 members who are elected by eligible producers

Some people may recall the old folk hero Johnny Appleseed roaming the country side wearing a tin pot for a hat and establishing apple

plantings wherever he went Look around Pamlico County and yoursquoll quickly notice that Johnny Appleseedrsquos influence did not reach into our area Apple trees can be grown in Pamlico County but our hot humid and saturated ground conditions can make it quite difficult In this weekrsquos article Irsquoll discuss some ways that we can make Johnny proud and help those apple trees survive

Apples amp Pears

The most important thing to remember with apples and most any other fruit variety is that they are not aquatic plants Wet soils conditions will kill plants or lead to slow decline and a disappointing experience To overcome this issue locate either a well-drained growing location or create mounds or rows for trees to grow on Mounds or rows several inches tall (6-18-inches) and several feet wide (4-8-feet) may be needed Use native soil where possible and remember that raised mounds or rows will dry out faster than surrounding conditions Irrigation may be needed especially during drought

Apple and pear trees are typically produced as grafted plants ensuring a particular rootstock underneath and fruit variety on top Plants grown from seed will not come true to type Plant trees with graft unions at least 2-inches above the soil line Plants sold as dwarf or semi-dwarf provide no context to their potential height and most trees will require pruning to maintain a desired height Dwarfing characteristics is manipulated by the rootstock selection (M9 MM106 Bartlett OHxF etc) that reduces the typical plant height by a comparable percentage to a seedling plant However this varies among rootstock choices and plants will not stop growing at a predetermined height

Choose varieties and rootstocks that provide resistance to diseases like cedar-apple rust fireblight or powdery mildew Some suggestions include Ginger Gold Gala Pink Lady Empire Golden Delicious Keiffer Moonglow and Harvest Queen Not every variety carries disease resistance but apples and pears will need more than one variety planted together to ensure cross pollination for fruit set

Training and pruning should start as soon as you plant With plants that are young whips (a slender sapling with little to no limbs) a heading cut is made near the location you want the first set of branches to occur (knee height from ground level) Young buds will grow below this cut When this growth reaches 3-4-inches you can select the most vigorous upright branch to form your leader (central trunk that grows vertically) and select 3-4 lateral growing branches to form your first scaffold of branches Essentially you are choosing branches to reach out around the tree that will not compete with each other This process gets repeated for several years (once

per year in late winter) until you form a tree of desired height that has several scaffolds of branches spaced 18-24-inches apart vertically This allows light and air penetration to help decrease disease pressure

For more detailed information about pruning fruit trees NC State Extension has a publication titled ldquoTraining and Pruning Fruit Trees in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsuedutraining-and-pruning-fruit-trees-in-north-carolina

Donrsquot be in a rush to fertilizer newly planted trees Allow time for roots to form before large amounts of fertilizer are applied A soil test taken before planting is recommend but a general rule of thumb for fertilization is 075-10 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer for each year of tree age broadcast around the tree no closer than 6-inches from the trunk during late winter

Disease and insects are common for apples and pears Cedar-apple rust is one of the most common diseases causing rust colored spots to form on leaves and the potential for premature leaf drop Fungicide and insecticide applications are highly recommended if blemish free fruit is desired Proper thinning will also help Thin fruit when approximately nickel size with single fruit spaced 6-8-inches apart This will require the removal of many fruits The plant will compensate by producing larger fruit Combination fruit tree sprays with a premixed insecticide and fungicide are easier for homeowners to apply These should be applied following petal fall in early spring Follow the label directions but understand repeat applications will be needed There are limited options for organic products Horticultural oils insecticidal soaps copper and sulfur may provide some protection However timing is far more critical with these products to achieve acceptable control No matter your management strategy gardeners in Pamlico County will have insect and disease issues Learn to accept some damage and imperfection If not you will be far happier buying fruit from the grocery store

For more information on growing apples and pears in Pamlico County review the NC State Extension publication titled ldquoProducing Tree Fruit in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsueduproducing-tree-fruit-for-home-use You might also like to review the ldquoTree Fruit and Nutsrdquo chapter from the NC State Extension Master Gardener Handbook httpscontentcesncsueduextension-gardener-handbook15-tree-fruit-and-nuts

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

(Bayboro) June06 2019 ndash US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Amy Coffey in Pamlico County reminds farmers and landowners that FSA is hosting an informational meeting regarding the 2019 County Committee Election process on December 09 2019 at 800 am at the Pamlico County FSA Office located at 13724 HWY 55 in Alliance Producers including minority women and new farmers are encouraged to attend the meeting and participate in the 2019 election

The county committee nomination period began on June 14 2019 Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the Pamlico County FSA office by close of business on Aug 1 2019

For election purposes counties are divided into local administrative areas (LAA) Each LAA

nominates and elects one producer to serve a three-year term on the FSA county committee

Each year an election is held in an LAA where a committee memberrsquos three-year term is expiring For 2019 an election will be held in LAA 3 which includes Arapahoe and Oriental

ldquoFarmers and ranchers in LAA 3 are urged to participate in this yearrsquos county committee elections by nominating candidates by the Aug 1 2019 deadlinerdquo said Coffey ldquoCounty committees are unique to FSA and allow producers to have a voice on federal farm program implementation at the local levelrdquo

To be eligible to serve on an FSA county committee a person must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the LAA in which

the person is a candidateFarmers and ranchers may nominate themselves

or others Organizations representing minorities and women also may nominate candidates To become a candidate an eligible individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination form The form and other information about FSA county committee elections is available at fsausdagovelections Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the local

USDA service center by close of business on Aug 1 2019

Nationwide there are approximately 7800 farmers and ranchers serving on FSA county committees These individuals make decisions on disaster and conservation programs emergency programs commodity price support loan programs and other agricultural issues Committees consist of three to 11 members who are elected by eligible producers

Some people may recall the old folk hero Johnny Appleseed roaming the country side wearing a tin pot for a hat and establishing apple

plantings wherever he went Look around Pamlico County and yoursquoll quickly notice that Johnny Appleseedrsquos influence did not reach into our area Apple trees can be grown in Pamlico County but our hot humid and saturated ground conditions can make it quite difficult In this weekrsquos article Irsquoll discuss some ways that we can make Johnny proud and help those apple trees survive

Apples amp Pears

The most important thing to remember with apples and most any other fruit variety is that they are not aquatic plants Wet soils conditions will kill plants or lead to slow decline and a disappointing experience To overcome this issue locate either a well-drained growing location or create mounds or rows for trees to grow on Mounds or rows several inches tall (6-18-inches) and several feet wide (4-8-feet) may be needed Use native soil where possible and remember that raised mounds or rows will dry out faster than surrounding conditions Irrigation may be needed especially during drought

Apple and pear trees are typically produced as grafted plants ensuring a particular rootstock underneath and fruit variety on top Plants grown from seed will not come true to type Plant trees with graft unions at least 2-inches above the soil line Plants sold as dwarf or semi-dwarf provide no context to their potential height and most trees will require pruning to maintain a desired height Dwarfing characteristics is manipulated by the rootstock selection (M9 MM106 Bartlett OHxF etc) that reduces the typical plant height by a comparable percentage to a seedling plant However this varies among rootstock choices and plants will not stop growing at a predetermined height

Choose varieties and rootstocks that provide resistance to diseases like cedar-apple rust fireblight or powdery mildew Some suggestions include Ginger Gold Gala Pink Lady Empire Golden Delicious Keiffer Moonglow and Harvest Queen Not every variety carries disease resistance but apples and pears will need more than one variety planted together to ensure cross pollination for fruit set

Training and pruning should start as soon as you plant With plants that are young whips (a slender sapling with little to no limbs) a heading cut is made near the location you want the first set of branches to occur (knee height from ground level) Young buds will grow below this cut When this growth reaches 3-4-inches you can select the most vigorous upright branch to form your leader (central trunk that grows vertically) and select 3-4 lateral growing branches to form your first scaffold of branches Essentially you are choosing branches to reach out around the tree that will not compete with each other This process gets repeated for several years (once

per year in late winter) until you form a tree of desired height that has several scaffolds of branches spaced 18-24-inches apart vertically This allows light and air penetration to help decrease disease pressure

For more detailed information about pruning fruit trees NC State Extension has a publication titled ldquoTraining and Pruning Fruit Trees in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsuedutraining-and-pruning-fruit-trees-in-north-carolina

Donrsquot be in a rush to fertilizer newly planted trees Allow time for roots to form before large amounts of fertilizer are applied A soil test taken before planting is recommend but a general rule of thumb for fertilization is 075-10 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer for each year of tree age broadcast around the tree no closer than 6-inches from the trunk during late winter

Disease and insects are common for apples and pears Cedar-apple rust is one of the most common diseases causing rust colored spots to form on leaves and the potential for premature leaf drop Fungicide and insecticide applications are highly recommended if blemish free fruit is desired Proper thinning will also help Thin fruit when approximately nickel size with single fruit spaced 6-8-inches apart This will require the removal of many fruits The plant will compensate by producing larger fruit Combination fruit tree sprays with a premixed insecticide and fungicide are easier for homeowners to apply These should be applied following petal fall in early spring Follow the label directions but understand repeat applications will be needed There are limited options for organic products Horticultural oils insecticidal soaps copper and sulfur may provide some protection However timing is far more critical with these products to achieve acceptable control No matter your management strategy gardeners in Pamlico County will have insect and disease issues Learn to accept some damage and imperfection If not you will be far happier buying fruit from the grocery store

For more information on growing apples and pears in Pamlico County review the NC State Extension publication titled ldquoProducing Tree Fruit in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsueduproducing-tree-fruit-for-home-use You might also like to review the ldquoTree Fruit and Nutsrdquo chapter from the NC State Extension Master Gardener Handbook httpscontentcesncsueduextension-gardener-handbook15-tree-fruit-and-nuts

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

(Bayboro) June06 2019 ndash US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Amy Coffey in Pamlico County reminds farmers and landowners that FSA is hosting an informational meeting regarding the 2019 County Committee Election process on December 09 2019 at 800 am at the Pamlico County FSA Office located at 13724 HWY 55 in Alliance Producers including minority women and new farmers are encouraged to attend the meeting and participate in the 2019 election

The county committee nomination period began on June 14 2019 Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the Pamlico County FSA office by close of business on Aug 1 2019

For election purposes counties are divided into local administrative areas (LAA) Each LAA

nominates and elects one producer to serve a three-year term on the FSA county committee

Each year an election is held in an LAA where a committee memberrsquos three-year term is expiring For 2019 an election will be held in LAA 3 which includes Arapahoe and Oriental

ldquoFarmers and ranchers in LAA 3 are urged to participate in this yearrsquos county committee elections by nominating candidates by the Aug 1 2019 deadlinerdquo said Coffey ldquoCounty committees are unique to FSA and allow producers to have a voice on federal farm program implementation at the local levelrdquo

To be eligible to serve on an FSA county committee a person must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the LAA in which

the person is a candidateFarmers and ranchers may nominate themselves

or others Organizations representing minorities and women also may nominate candidates To become a candidate an eligible individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination form The form and other information about FSA county committee elections is available at fsausdagovelections Nomination forms must be postmarked or received in the local

USDA service center by close of business on Aug 1 2019

Nationwide there are approximately 7800 farmers and ranchers serving on FSA county committees These individuals make decisions on disaster and conservation programs emergency programs commodity price support loan programs and other agricultural issues Committees consist of three to 11 members who are elected by eligible producers

Some people may recall the old folk hero Johnny Appleseed roaming the country side wearing a tin pot for a hat and establishing apple

plantings wherever he went Look around Pamlico County and yoursquoll quickly notice that Johnny Appleseedrsquos influence did not reach into our area Apple trees can be grown in Pamlico County but our hot humid and saturated ground conditions can make it quite difficult In this weekrsquos article Irsquoll discuss some ways that we can make Johnny proud and help those apple trees survive

Apples amp Pears

The most important thing to remember with apples and most any other fruit variety is that they are not aquatic plants Wet soils conditions will kill plants or lead to slow decline and a disappointing experience To overcome this issue locate either a well-drained growing location or create mounds or rows for trees to grow on Mounds or rows several inches tall (6-18-inches) and several feet wide (4-8-feet) may be needed Use native soil where possible and remember that raised mounds or rows will dry out faster than surrounding conditions Irrigation may be needed especially during drought

Apple and pear trees are typically produced as grafted plants ensuring a particular rootstock underneath and fruit variety on top Plants grown from seed will not come true to type Plant trees with graft unions at least 2-inches above the soil line Plants sold as dwarf or semi-dwarf provide no context to their potential height and most trees will require pruning to maintain a desired height Dwarfing characteristics is manipulated by the rootstock selection (M9 MM106 Bartlett OHxF etc) that reduces the typical plant height by a comparable percentage to a seedling plant However this varies among rootstock choices and plants will not stop growing at a predetermined height

Choose varieties and rootstocks that provide resistance to diseases like cedar-apple rust fireblight or powdery mildew Some suggestions include Ginger Gold Gala Pink Lady Empire Golden Delicious Keiffer Moonglow and Harvest Queen Not every variety carries disease resistance but apples and pears will need more than one variety planted together to ensure cross pollination for fruit set

Training and pruning should start as soon as you plant With plants that are young whips (a slender sapling with little to no limbs) a heading cut is made near the location you want the first set of branches to occur (knee height from ground level) Young buds will grow below this cut When this growth reaches 3-4-inches you can select the most vigorous upright branch to form your leader (central trunk that grows vertically) and select 3-4 lateral growing branches to form your first scaffold of branches Essentially you are choosing branches to reach out around the tree that will not compete with each other This process gets repeated for several years (once

per year in late winter) until you form a tree of desired height that has several scaffolds of branches spaced 18-24-inches apart vertically This allows light and air penetration to help decrease disease pressure

For more detailed information about pruning fruit trees NC State Extension has a publication titled ldquoTraining and Pruning Fruit Trees in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsuedutraining-and-pruning-fruit-trees-in-north-carolina

Donrsquot be in a rush to fertilizer newly planted trees Allow time for roots to form before large amounts of fertilizer are applied A soil test taken before planting is recommend but a general rule of thumb for fertilization is 075-10 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer for each year of tree age broadcast around the tree no closer than 6-inches from the trunk during late winter

Disease and insects are common for apples and pears Cedar-apple rust is one of the most common diseases causing rust colored spots to form on leaves and the potential for premature leaf drop Fungicide and insecticide applications are highly recommended if blemish free fruit is desired Proper thinning will also help Thin fruit when approximately nickel size with single fruit spaced 6-8-inches apart This will require the removal of many fruits The plant will compensate by producing larger fruit Combination fruit tree sprays with a premixed insecticide and fungicide are easier for homeowners to apply These should be applied following petal fall in early spring Follow the label directions but understand repeat applications will be needed There are limited options for organic products Horticultural oils insecticidal soaps copper and sulfur may provide some protection However timing is far more critical with these products to achieve acceptable control No matter your management strategy gardeners in Pamlico County will have insect and disease issues Learn to accept some damage and imperfection If not you will be far happier buying fruit from the grocery store

For more information on growing apples and pears in Pamlico County review the NC State Extension publication titled ldquoProducing Tree Fruit in North Carolinardquo httpscontentcesncsueduproducing-tree-fruit-for-home-use You might also like to review the ldquoTree Fruit and Nutsrdquo chapter from the NC State Extension Master Gardener Handbook httpscontentcesncsueduextension-gardener-handbook15-tree-fruit-and-nuts

In my next article Irsquoll examine growing peaches in Pamlico County Peaches can be a challenging plant to grow but quality fruit can be produced in your backyard If you have questions related to gardening in Pamlico County please give me a call at 252-745-4121 or email me at Daniel_simpsonncsuedu

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

someone said a black panther came into their yard That is the second bear sighting we witnessed in our neighborhood Also people are reporting seeing lots of snakes Hope we donrsquot see any alligators Did a little line dancing and singing with the Fifty Plus Club on Tuesday but not too many were there On Sunday Bethel celebrated Homecoming and Owen Peelersquos message was on going home and which home we would be going to Big lunch in the Fellowship Hall with over thirty folks attending the service Gayle Lupton and daughter Jessica were here for Jessicarsquos 20th school reunion Mattie Cuthrell left after lunch to play in Dixie Gatlinrsquos recital Thanks to next door neighbor Melydia for sitting with Weeks on Sunday morning so I could play for church So many folks are getting kayaks we may have to start a little race here This week we celebrate Sylvia Nickersonrsquos birthdayThought for the week--No one ever went broke saving money

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

If yoursquore a dad you may well be pleased to unwrap some tools as Fatherrsquos Day gifts Of course it might be a stereotype that all men are handy at repairs women certainly can be every bit as good when it comes to

building and fixing things In fact the construction process is valuable for any-one to learn ndash and the same skills that go in to creating and mending physical objects also can be applied to financial projects ndash such as working toward a com-fortable retirementHere are a few of those skills

bull Diagnosing the challenge ndash A good craftsperson knows that the first step toward accomplishing any outcome is to assess the challenge So for example if you want to build some bookshelves right into the wall yoursquoll need to locate the wall studs determine if you have adequate space for the shelving you want and allow room for future expansion Similarly if you want to retire at a certain age you need to consider the key vari-ables your current and future income (How much can you count on from your

retirement plans) where yoursquoll live (Will you downsize or relocate Will you rent or own a house or condominium) And what yoursquoll do as a retiree (Will you travel extensively or stick close to home Will you do some type of work for pay or pur-sue your hobbies and volunteer)

bull Assembling the right tools and mate-rials ndash To put together your bookshelf you will need the right tools ndash saw ham-mer drill sander and so on ndash and the right building materials ndash plywood nails screws glue brackets moldings and so on And to work toward a comfortable retirement yoursquoll also need the right tool ndash in the form of a long-term financial strategy based on your specific retire-ment goals risk tolerance and time hori-zon ndash along with the appropriate materi-als ndash the mix of investments you use to carry out that strategy These investments include those yoursquove placed in your IRA your 401(k) or other employer-spon-sored retirement plan and those held outside your formal retirement accounts Ideally you want a diversified mix of investments capable of providing growth potential over time within the context of your individual risk tolerance

bull Review your work ndash Once yoursquove finished your bookshelf you occasion-ally may need to make some minor adjustments or repairs in response to slippage cracks or other issues that can develop over time As an investor you also may need to tweak your finan-cial strategy periodically and adjust your investment mix ndash not necessar-ily because something is broken but to accommodate changes in your life such as a new job new family situa-tion and new goals Furthermore over time your risk tolerance may change and this needs to be reflected in your array of investments Consequently conducting an annual portfolio review with your financial professional should be a priority

Tools are a big deal on Fatherrsquos Day But the construction-related tasks they represent physically and symbolically go beyond any one holiday and can be used by anyone interested in working toward a solid financial future

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds

Are mermaids realNo evidence of aquatic humanoids

has ever been foundMermaids - those half-

human half-fish sirens of the sea mdash are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial The ancient Greek epic poet Homer wrote of them in The Odyssey In the ancient Far East mermaids were the wives of powerful sea-dragons and served as trusted messengers between their spouses and the emperors on land The aboriginal people of Australia call mermaids yawkyawks ndash a name that may refer to their mesmerizing songs

The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30000 years ago when modern humans gained dominion over the land and presumably began to sail the seas Half-human creatures called chimeras also abound in mythology mdash in addition to mermaids there were wise centaurs wild satyrs and frightful minotaurs to name but a few

But are mermaids real No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found Why then do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples Thatrsquos a question best left to historians philosophers and anthropologists

ldquoInstruction ends in the schoolroom but education ends only with liferdquomdashFrederick W Robertson

Do you know what a drowning person looks like Could you

spot one in a sea of people Chances are if you are like most people you would not be able to spot a drowning person at first sight This is because most of us have a misconception of what drowning looks like due to the influence of popular culture To make drowning look more dramatic on television and in film people are often shown flailing screaming and violently active However that is contrary to what drowning actually looks like Knowing how to tell the difference just might save a life

In a recent article in the Coast Guardrsquos On Scene magazine former Coast Guard Dr Francesco A Pia explains that drowning is often quite the opposite as shown on television ldquoDrowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event The waving splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real liferdquo The article explains The Instinctive Drowning Response so named by Francesco A Pia PhD is what people do to avoid actual or perceived suffocation in the water And it does not look like most people expect There is very little splashing no waving and no yelling or calls for help of any kind

You may think that you personally could tell the difference between a drowning person and someone just playing around but drowning is currently the number two cause of death for children in the United States and more than ten percent of those childrenrsquos parents watched them drown unknowingly The statistics are grim according to the CDC in The Sydney Morning Heraldrsquos coverage of Dr Piarsquos article ldquoOf the approximately 750 children who will drown next year about 375 of them will do so within 25 yards of a parent or other adultrdquo These numbers are staggering and make knowing the difference imperative

Dr Pia explains what The Instinctive Drowning Response is and how to tell if someone is likely drowning

Except in rare circumstances drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help The respiratory system was designed for breathing Speech is the secondary or overlaid function Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs

Drowning peoples mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale inhale and call out for help When the drowning peoples mouths are above the surface they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water

Drowning people cannot wave for help Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the waters surface Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements Physiologically drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help moving toward a rescuer or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response peoples bodies remain upright in the water with no evidence of a supporting kick Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs

They went on to warn not to disregard anyone seemingly in distress in the water such as someone yelling and thrashing explaining that those people are experiencing aquatic distress which may not always be present before Instinctive Drowning Response and does not last very long In this state just before Instinctive Drowning Response these individuals can still assist in their own rescue such as grabbing a throw ring

The key signs to look for according to the article are 1 Head low in the water mouth at water level 2 Head tilted back with mouth open 3 Eyes glassy and empty unable to focus 4 Eyes closed 5 Hair over forehead or eyes 6 Not using legs ndash vertical 7 Hyperventilating or gasping 8 Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway 9 Trying to roll over on the back 10 Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

Recognizing how to spot these warning signs is crucial within the first few seconds since most drowning can occur within seconds The best thing you can do if you are not sure if someone is in distress is to call out to them and ask if they are alright states The Herald They also stress to parents that children are always noisy and to be concerned when you donrsquot hear your child They explain that parents should never take a chance when in doubt check on the child immediately since they may have only seconds
