ing and diarrhea.There are several important and simple ways to prevent

the spread of these and other infectious illnesses:Good hand washing is absolutely critical and the best

way to prevent the spread of germs. Wash hands frequently for at least 20 seconds with soap and water. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are also effective. Wash hands before eating, after going to the bathroom, and after coughing, sneezing or blowing your nose.

Germs spread when we cough or sneeze. Cover coughs and sneezes with your elbows or a tissue. Always properly dispose of used tissues and avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way.

It is recommended that all students be up-to-date on im-munizations and that everyone get a seasonal flu shot when available in the coming weeks. Currently, companies are working to develop a novel H1N1 flu shot. However, it may be mid-October before it is available to the public.

If you or your child is sick and/or has a fever, please stay home and limit contact with others to keep from spreading the infection. Those who are fever-free for 24 hours without fever-reducing medicine may return to work or school.

Your county health department is working closely with the local school systems and other community partners to monitor flu activity in this county.

The Southeast Health District and the health depart-ment will provide new information as it becomes available. For the most current information about novel H1N1 visit the Southeast Health District website at http://www.sehdph.org/H1N1flu.htm or the CDC website at www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu.

Joubert concert tickets selling fast

Tickets are selling fast for the Okefenokee Arts & Enter-tainment presentation of a concert by Joseph Joubert and his wife, Renay Peters Joubert. The concert, which will be held on Sunday, September 20 at 3 p.m. at First Baptist Church in Waycross, should be a sell-out.

The public will enjoy an afternoon of great music by the duo. Joseph Joubert is a world renowned pianist and was asso-ciate conductor for the Broadway show, The Color Purple. His wife, soprano, Renay Peters Joubert, exemplifies today’s eclectically experienced vocal musician.

The Jouberts are based in New York City and have ap-peared throughout the world.

Joubert has collaborated with renowned concert artists such as Kathleen Battle and Florence Quivar, and has worked as producer, arranger, and key-boardist for popular artists such as Whitney Houston, Patti La-belle, Diana Ross, Judy Collins, Jennifer Holliday, and Ashford and Simpson.

He is arranger,composer, and co-producer for two music textbook series, The Music Con-nection and Making Music.

Joubert is conductor, pia-nist, and arranger for ‘Three Mo’ Tenors,” which was recently fea-tured in a PBS special on “Great Performances.”

Tech system sets record enrollment

The Technical College System of Georgia set a new record high in annual enroll-ment in Fiscal Year 2009, growing by 7 percent over the previous year.

The TCSG enrolled 156,271 students in the year that ended June 30, an in-crease of 10,281 students.

Almost 60% of that increase was among stu-dents ages 26 and above, a reflection that many of the new students are laid-off or under-employed workers who are turning to the TCSG’s affordable programs to learn new skills that are still in demand despite the downturn in the economy.

“The enrollment increase at our TCSG colleges has been phenomenal,” said Commissioner Ron Jackson.

“Students of all ages are see-ing the excellent value in a TCSG education and, more important, they know that our colleges produce the kind of results that lead to good careers and rewarding jobs, even in this tough economy.”

The strong upward trend in enrollment has continued into the new Fiscal Year 2010 with the just-started summer quarter, which is showing a 16% enrollment increase over the same time last year. With 18 of the 28 TCSG colleges reporting summer increases of more than 20%, this is cer-tain to be the TCSG’s largest summer quarter ever.

Okefenokee Techni-cal College is listed among the 18 colleges reporting an increase of more than 20%.

“Our summer quarter enroll-ment follows the statewide trend,” stated Danita Cannon, Okefenokee Technical Col-lege’s VP for Student Affairs.

“The 7-day count indicated a 20.9% increase.”

More than one-third of the system’s enrollment in FY09 was in degree, diploma and certificate of credit programs in the healthcare technology fields. The sys-tem reached an all-time high of 56,047 healthcare students who are studying and getting hands-on experience in popu-lar programs like practical nursing, medical assisting, dental assisting, pharmacy technology, surgical technol-ogy and healthcare assistant.

The TCSG’s online college, the Georgia Virtual Technical College, also had a record year, enrolling 58,472 students in online courses in FY09, which was 22 percent more than in FY08.

TCSG students enjoy easy access to college courses

- which, depending on the program, can be completed in between six months and two years — along with high job placement rates. Just as important, the combined tu-ition and fees, which averages $2,052 annually, is among the lowest in the southeast.

Better still, the actual out-of-pocket expense for a TCSG student is usually much less, since Georgia’s HOPE grant and the federal Pell grant will pay for a large portion of a TCSG education.

TCSG colleges offer more than 600 programs that lead to certificates of credit, diplomas and associate degrees.

Things you need to know

TALKING POINTS...

By Carter Clews

At 10:45 a.m. on the morning of Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2009, Contessa Brewer, Dylan Ratigan, and something calling itself “Toure” made it official: MSNBC has shamelessly dropped all pretense of functioning as a legitimate purveyor of serious broadcast/cable news.

It is now a vomitorium.It was at the above time on said date that

the Three Raceketeers issued some of the vil-est, most repellant, and repugnant vomitous ever spewed upon the American people. And if NBC president Steven Capus had one ounce of integrity, he would have fired the offenders on the spot. Here’s the story …

Showing a carefully cropped shot of an armed protestor outside an Obama rally in Phoenix, Arizona, Brewer, Ratigan, and

“Toure” proceeded to use the man as an exam-ple of the rampant white racism that threat-ens the very life of our first black President. The more they talked, the more they frothed. And, they soon became downright hysterical.

“I mean,” spewed Brewer, “here you have a man of color in the presidency and white people showing up with guns strapped to their waists or to their legs.”

“You know,” yammered a wide-eyed “Toure,” “there’s a lot of tumult going on from there being a black president … and so many people are still mad about a black person, and black people in general, reaching that level.”

Not to be outdone, the always frenetic Ratigan chimed in, “Then, totally you would install a black president at a time when the temperature is higher and you just have a more volatile combination, where people have to behave in a more conscious manner or we’re going to have problems.”

So, there you have it, the Three Raceke-teers went from showing a carefully cropped close-up shot from behind of “white people showing up with guns strapped to their waists” … to “a lot of tumult” over “there being a black president” … to the MSNBC-proclaimed “fact” that “we’re going to have problems.”

Actually, of course, we already had a “problem” – because the entire episode was a MSNBC-manufactured hoax.

You see, the white man being shown with the “guns strapped to his waist” wasn’t white at all. He was black. As Brewer, Ratigan, and Toure well knew – since they’re the ones who carefully cropped his head and hands out of the picture, and made up the lie.

In short, Contessa Brewer, Dylan Rati-gan, and the scrawny clown calling himself

“Toure” disgorged bilge all over the American people, characterizing the populace as rag-ing racists, all the while knowing they were conjuring up the entire episode.

Now, I have to admit that it’s hard not to engage in ad hominem attacks when writ-ing about as kooky a threesome as Brewer, Ratigan, and the person currently calling himself “Toure.” Together, they personify all that is wrong with the MSNBC brand of

harebrained mis-reportage. Separately, they are poster children for frontal lobotomies.

The vapid Brewer, for her part, has become infamous for putting the P in what Rush Limbaugh calls PMSNBC. Regardless of the story, she seems somehow always on the verge of going hormonal, flying off the handle, and hurling mindless invective at all who fall within her line of fire. As she did with John Ziegler when he had the audac-ity to defend Sarah Palin to a wild-eyed, red-faced Brewer. Contessa cut his mike

– while all watching knew that deep down the hyperventilating vixen really wanted to cut his throat.

Then, there is Dylan Ratigan – who, de-spite his namesake never goes gently into any good night. He is the man who, his cumber-some denials aside, was reportedly removed from CNBC for his inability to control his continually flapping foul mouth. Here’s how the New York Post reported one on Ratigan’s typical outbursts:

Page Six heard a tape of highly volatile Ratigan … ranting to a producer at a com-mercial break last summer: “Don’t ask me to talk about every [bleep]ing e-mail that comes up on the screen. I’m not going to host a [bleep]ing TV show that consists of reading [bleep]ing e-mails to [bleep]ing traders.”

This from the man who goes on the air to condemn the American people as out-of-control racists. Welcome to the Twilight Zone, Dylan.

And finally, we have the palpable idiot who has christened himself “Toure” – as in

“Sinatra,” “Streisand,” or, more aptly, “Clara-belle.” You have to know that when not ap-pearing with the Three Raceketeers, “Toure” is the hip-hop writer for Rolling Stone. There, he waxes rhapsodic (or, at least as rhapsodic as the monosyllabic “Toure” is able) about such heroes of his as Mr. Big, Fifty Cent, Snoop Dog, and Eminem (yes, he who wrote of his own mother: “Slut, you think I won’t choke no whore’ til the vocal cords don’t work in her throat no more?!”)

“Toure,” by the way, shares with us on his Face Book page that he wants to die while having sex, and that he does not believe in bathing regularly. Which leads one to sur-mise that the only person likely to die while

“Toure” is having sex is the unfortunate partner, that by asphyxiation.

So, there you have it: MSNBC’s top morning anchors who on Tuesday, August 18, Steven Capus unleashed to projectile vomit on the American people.

Well, I have a suggestion for Mr. Ca-pus: the next time you learn that the Three Raceketeers are planning to doctor footage in order to build ratings for one of their diurnal kookfests, why don’t you invite a sane mem-ber of your minuscule audience on to lend an air of validity to the otherwise inane diatribe.

I’ll be happy to volunteer – if I’m allowed to bring a barf bag.

GIAHA sponsors showing of Sapelo project by artist in residenceIn 2008, the Sapelo

Island National Estuarine Research Reserve (SINERR) invited Brunswick artist Christy Trowbridge to participate in the Reserve’s Through Nature’s Lens pro-gram, which affords artists the opportunity to visit the Reserve and capture images in the media of their choos-ing and offers the public a glimpse of the Reserve through an artist’s eyes.

Golden Isles Arts and Humanities Association (GI-AHA) will present Trow-bridge’s work to the public in an exhibit on display at Downtown Brunswick’s His-toric Ritz Theatre September 4-26. An opening reception with the artist and SINERR representatives will be held on Friday, September 4, from 5-8 p.m.

The exhibit will include paintings done by Trow-bridge in the course of sever-al visits to Sapelo, capturing the island’s natural beauty over the course of all the

seasons of the year. Since a young age, she has been in-terested in the natural world and initially studied wildlife biology in college. Christy spent her professional career as an environmental educa-tor and park ranger in both Georgia and Ohio, leading hikes, teaching about native species, and patrolling trails by mountain bike. When she married her husband Terry, they decided to simplify their lives so that Christy could pursue her love of art. Following her passion has al-lowed Christy to balance her love of the outdoors and her love of art. Christy hopes to inspire and encourage other amateur artists with her story.

“Never in a million years did I consider being an artist

– it was my husband’s idea,” Troybridge says. “I still can’t help but laugh a little bit when I tell people what I do, not just because it’s hard to believe that this is now my life, but because it just

doesn’t seem right to call this work.”

The exhibit is on display through September 26, which is National Estuaries Day, established in 1988 as an annual celebration of the vibrant coastal areas where rivers meet the sea—estu-aries. National Estuaries Day is a great opportunity to learn more about these magical ecosystems and how the public can help to protect them. The celebra-tion is designed to encourage people to visit estuaries in their regions and elsewhere to explore these natural wonders. More information about the event and about estuary systems across the country can be found at www.estuaries.gov.

The Sapelo Island National Estuarine Research Reserve (SINERR), located on the western perimeter of Sapelo Island, is dedicated to research, education, stew-ardship, and sound manage-ment of coastal resources

in Georgia. Specifically, the organization focuses on the natural, cultural, and his-torical resources of Sapelo Island and the Duplin River estuary. More information on the Reserve can be found at www.sapelonerr.org.

The exhibit will also include educational mate-rial about SINERR and the estuaries program. The opening reception on Sep-tember 4 takes place during Downtown Brunswick’s First Friday, an evening when the public is invited to visit the shops, galleries, restaurants, and other venues in the his-toric district to enjoy music, food and beverage samplings, works of art, and other delights of the area. The exhibit is free and open to the public Tuesdays through Fridays, 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. and Saturdays, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

GIAHA is the coordinat-ing arts council for Bruns-wick and Glynn County and managers of the Historic

Ritz Theatre and Mary Ross Waterfront Park in Down-town Brunswick. The orga-nization presents year-round arts and humanities exhibits in the gallery space at the Ritz. For more information

76-year-old drags 5-foot flathead from Ocmulgee River

The Ocmulgee River has monsters — monster catfish that is! A 103-lbs. flathead cat-fish was caught by Tom Head, 76, near Warner Robins earlier this week, according to fisheries personnel with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division. The fish was more than 57 inches long and greater than 41 inches in girth. The head itself was almost 16 inches wide.

Is it a new state record? No. Even though this fish beats the current flathead catfish state record weight by 20 pounds, it was caught using a method called “jug fishing” that is not consid-ered eligible for state record status. To be eligible, it must be landed using sport fishing tackle. Bush hooks, trot lines, jugs, baskets, nets, etc., while popular methods of fishing, are not considered sporting tackle.

Flathead catfish have a flattened head, yellowish mottled with brown and green coloring, small eyes and a lower jaw that extends beyond the upper jaw and an unforked tail.

For anglers trying to land a large flathead, heavy tackle is a must - large spinning or casting tackle with at least 20 to 50-pound test line with heavy weights to keep bait on the bottom. Recommended flathead baits are live goldfish, bream and shiners.

Anglers fishing rivers during the day should target deep holes containing rock or woody structures. During dusk, dawn and at night, an-glers should concentrate on shallow sandbars and shoals nearby the deep holes fished during the day.

Though most species of catfish are active throughout the day, the best summer fishing is at dusk and during the night. The best time of the year to fish for all catfish species is from early spring through the fall, with a peak in the summer.

Tom Head hefts his huge catch as DNR fisheries technician Winn Scarbrough
