PCMS Students get chromebooks
Polk County Middle School (PCMS) sixth graders are making good use of the schools newly purchased Chromebooks. Students in Mrs. Scherpings English Language Arts class used the Google Chromebooks to research Archaic and Paleo cultures of North America. Students accessed information on their assigned cultures, took notes, recorded the citation information, and then put their notes onto graphic organizers. They used the organized information to write a thesis statement and a report on their research.

erative Extension Director John Vining planned to pick out sugar maples on Monday, Nov. 19.
Kanipe told council remov-ing the Bradford Pears wasnt done without forethought. He said the pictures of the broken limbs were worth a thousand words.
We are fortunate no persons or property were under there at the time, said Kanipe.
The town plans to replace the Bradford Pears with sugar maples because of their strength and tradition.
Sugar maples were planted in 1944 or 1945 in honor of veter-ans who served in World War II, according to Vining. The sugar maples lined the courthouse for approximately 40 years before the Columbus Revitalization Committee replaced the Brad-ford Pears in 1984.
Unfortunately in 1984 we

did not know the pear trees would start to break apart after 30 years of growth, Vining said. The pear trees in Co-lumbus were a r o u n d 2 8 years of age.
V i n i n g said they are choosing to go back with the Sugar Ma-ple for tradi-tion since the courthouse is 153 years old.
H e a l s o said the Sugar Maple will fit the surroundings and they make lovely landscape trees with spectacular fall color. The Sugar Maple is also strong with very little breakage, he said.
The town is looking into 2-inch diameter Sugar Maples
between 12 and 18 feet in height. Vining said they are looking to plant a variety of Sugar Maple called Green Mountain.
Columbus will need to place gator bags (green bags) around
the new trees to ass is t in w a t e r i n g Sugar Maples have limited drought toler-ance, Vining said.
K a n i p e said the new trees will be planted in the same general
area, but the suggestion has been made not to plant them as close to the steps as the Brad-ford Pears were in order to have a full view of the courthouse.
The town plans to have the new trees planted by the end of the year.

Tryon Fire Chief Joey Davis presents an award from the Polk County Fire Chiefs Association during a retirement party for Columbus Fire Chief Geoff Tennant.

the position since 1982. He has served as firefighter for 35 years and retired as an educator after 30 years of service. Tennant is currently the chair of the Polk County School Board.
Tennant joined the Colum-bus Fire Department in the mid-1970s. Then, the depart-ment consisted of a small all-volunteer force and a couple of fire trucks. Today, the depart-ment has one paid firefighter and 28 active volunteers in addition to junior members and several associate members who also belong to neighboring departments.
I dont think you can under-stand how much the people in this room mean to me, Tennant told those in attendance.
Tennant was lured to Tryon Estates that evening by a fire alarm activation at the retire-ment community in Columbus. The fire alarm call was nothing new to Tennant, but soon after entering the room, Tennant re-alized the setup as he was met with a standing ovation.
It was the only way we could get him here, said Co-lumbus Deputy Fire Chief Bobby Arledge. If we told him we were having a retirement party, he wouldnt have shown
up. If its a fire call, we know hes coming.
Arledge will take over the chief position at the beginning of the year.
Tennant was presented the Order of the Long Leaf Pine, along with several other presen-tations from many of the service agencies Tennant has worked closely with over the years. Those in attendance included all Polk County emergency service and law enforcement agencies, mutual aid fire depart-ments and Regional One.
The opportunity to work with him in so many roles has been incredible, said Tryon Fire Chief Joey Davis. He has been a colleague, my fire chief and most importantly, my friend.
Davis served as the Polk County Fire Marshal and later as deputy chief at the Columbus Fire Department before taking the Tryon fire chief position.
Tennant expressed surprise when presented the Order of the Long Leaf Pine award, which has also been awarded to Bob Timberlake, Charles Kuralt and fellow University of North Carolina Alumnus, Mi-chael Jordan. The Order of the Long Leaf Pine is presented to individuals who have a proven

One hundred eighty runners completed the inaugural Tryon half-marathon hosted by the Tryon Running Club on Saturday, Nov. 17. The ages of the finishers ranged from 15 to 71. Profits from the registration fees will be donated to the Thermal Belt Outreach Ministry of Polk County.
Brett Morley of Landrum was the first overall fin-isher with a time of 1:13:36. Morley was a member of the award-winning Lan-drum High School cross country team. After gradu-ation, Morley ran cross country for Spartanburg Methodist Col-lege. He currently is a member of the cross country team at North Greenville University in Tiger-ville, S.C.
Todd Walter, also of Landrum, was the overall masters male finisher with a time of 1:24:38. Walter was also fourth overall. Walter, a Landrum physician, is an assistant coach to the cross coun-try team at Landrum High School.
Amber Moran of Asheville was
the first overall female finisher with a time of 1:26:48. Natalie Taylor of Raleigh was first masters female with a time of 1:32:44.
Complete race results can be found at runningtime.info/2012/r12.htm
The out-and-back course be-gan on Harmon Field Road, made a left onto Highway 108 and then a right onto Clarence Rhodes Road, then to Scriv-en Road, and down River Road until a marked turn around to follow the course
back to turn left onto Highway 108, then right onto Howard Gap Road where it entered Harmon Field via the tomato fields trail (Cane Brake) on the left to finish at the Harmon Field track.
Scarlette Bennett Tapp, race director, expressed her apprecia-tion to the runners, the volunteers and the many others who made the race a success.
I really want to be eloquent here, but there are just two little words that sum up yesterday, thank you. I said at the awards
ceremony something I truly be-lieve, that charity races cannot happen without each of these four components: sponsors to make the event financially possible to put on and then on top of that, enable us to give a significant portion to a chosen charity; runners to sign up, spend months training and then put their own personal athletic dreams on the line when they sign up for your race; vol-unteers who are the work horses that give up time from family or work doing crazy jobs at crazy hours; and community partners such as hospitals, police depart-ments, first responders, you name it! So no matter where you fell on the spectrum yesterday, I want to thank you for choosing the Tryon Half Marathon! Lets do this again next year!

The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to
the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

The human Tongue
a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!
The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongues roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all
taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.

tongues to sweat? Dogs do not have sweat glands like
humans, so they use their tongues and the pads of their feet to
release heat.

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

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

The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to
the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

The human Tongue
a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!
The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongues roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all
taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.

The Island of Madagascar The African Island of Madagascar, located in the Indian Ocean, is approximately 250 miles away from the African mainland. The country closest to the island is Mozambique and the two countries are separated by a body of water in the Indian Ocean known as the Mozambique Channel. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, measur-ing almost 1,000 miles in length and 350 miles wide at its widest point. The Capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo. The Republic of Madagascar also includes several smaller, adjacent islands. The island has several different climate zones which include the tropical rains of the northwest, the dry southern area, and wet and hot western area. The island has mountains, ridges, and valleys that separate these different areas. The tallest moun-tain found in Madagascar is Mount Maromokotro, which is 9,436 feet above sea level. The people of Madagascar are considered to be members of the African community, but their origins are more closely related to Indonesia. They are referred to as being Mala-gasy--a name that refers to both the people and the native language. The other official language is French. Madagascars primary industry is farming; rice is the primary food staple. Vanilla and coffee are produced for export; Madagascar produces more vanilla than any other country in the world. Today, Madagascar is a multi-party republic, but it was at one time a French territory.
