Lyman Town Council
voted unanimously on
Monday to postpone Lymanfest in 2017.
With all the projects
going on right now, I cant
dedicate any time to Lymanfest, said Town Administrator Gregg Miller.
Theres a lot that goes
on behind the scenes to
put that ona lot of stuff.

process. Weve got a lot of
Lyman councilmember
good things going on, but
unfortunately, something
has to give this year. Im
not saying it cant come
back.
Members of council
stressed the importance
of town priorities.
Its a very big undertaking, said Councilmember
Tony Wyatt.
To me, its not worth
town business not being done because theyre
doing Lymanfest stuff,
said
Councilmember
Greg Wood in regards to
town staff. Id like to see
somebody else or another
group do a lot of the work.
It sounds like its awful
heavy on town staff.
Lymanfest,
generally
held in May, has drawn
thousands of people over
the years to the town of Lyman for live music, crafts,

DAVE
RAMSEY
Unclear
is to be
unkind
Q: My friend and I are
roommates, and weve
always had an agreement
that we split each of the
bills fifty-fifty. We both
work and have decent
jobs, but for the last
couple of months shes
been really late in paying
her half of the bills. She
says shes broke. I dont
want to be mean, but how
can I approach her about
this situation?
DR: I understand that
you dont want to be
mean to a friend, but situations like this should be
addressed quickly and directly. No matter whether
youre talking about
friendships or business
dealings, to be unclear is
to be unkind.
Turn off the television,
sit down with her, and
have a kind but firm conversation. Let her know
that the roommate agreement is no longer working
because she isnt paying
her bills on time. Make
sure she understands that
the two of you are not
going to be able to stay
there together anymore
unless she starts paying
on time. You might also
ask if she needs help
budgeting her money. I
mean, if shes got a good
job, her money has to be
going somewhere, right?
The problem is that its
not going to the proper
places.
I know you think that
by being subtle or avoiding the situation youre
being nice, but youre not.
Youre being passive-aggressive. You just have to
smile and say, This isnt
going to happen anymore.

he said, so it feels right to
me to be here because its
kind of a town with roots
and family.
In Italian, Risata means
laughter, Gilman said,
which is sort of the spirit
we wanted behind this
place.
It could be a big, Italian, family gathering every
day, like a big party, he
continued. Thats kind of
how we thought about this
place. We wanted people
to have fun, spend some
time around some pizzas and relax. We tried to
build the whole place to
feel that way. That just felt
like it fit Greer really nicely too because its such a
family centric community.
Im super happy that were
here.
Gilman worked alongside his fianc, Kim Knighting, to renovate the entire
front of the restaurant.
Shes got decades of

experience,
Gilman said. Shes the

As general manager,
Knighting
hired
and
trained the staff as well as
many other tasks.
She does everything,
Gilman said, so that I can
focus on making the food
as good as we possibly
can.
We do everything according to the Vera Pizza

from Naples, Italy, that
sets the standard for how
pizzas are made.

BY KAELYN PFENNING
STAFF WRITER
Dan Reynolds became
Greers police chief in
February 2005 after more
than 30 years with the
Savannah (Georgia) Police
Department.
When I first came here,
one of the goals when we
talked to command staff
was to try to give them an
opportunity to increase
their qualifications so that
one of them could take
over when I left, Reynolds
said. I came from a department that chose from
the outside on a regular
basis.
Ive enjoyed the [Greer]
community, he said. The
communitys very supportive of the police. You
dont find that everywhere
around the country, but
here, even through the
hard times, theyve been
very supportive. I have
a very good staff. All of
them are very loyal, very
dedicated to the profession.
Reynolds grew up in a
U.S. Navy family and lived
in many different areas
of the country before his
family finally settled on
a small farm in Virginia
Beach, Virginia. He graduated in 1966 from Floyd E.
Kellam High School, joined
the U.S. Army that June,
and was commissioned
in 1967 after graduating
from Artillery OCS at Ft.
Sill, Okla.
He left the Army with
the rank of captain in
1972 to join the Savannah
Police Department, where
he worked numerous assignments and eventually
rose to the rank of Deputy
Chief. He spent most of
his career in investigations
and facilitated the implementation of Community
Oriented Policing (COP)
and Problem Oriented Policing (POP) in the depart-
very supportive
of the police. You
dont find that
everywhere around
the country...

25th consecutive region title
When you hit a milestone
BY BILLY CANNADA
SPORTS EDITOR
If youve been in Eastsides region
during the last quarter of a century,
youve lost.
The Eagles wrestling team locked
up its 25th consecutive conference
title Monday night with a 67-10 win
over Blue Ridge, and many of the
teams former athletes dropped by
to help celebrate.
When you hit a milestone like
that, theres a sense of long-term accomplishment that you feel, head
coach Jack Kosmicki said. I got a
chance to say a lot of thank yous
on Monday night. There are a lot
of people that have been out of the
wrestling scene for years, but are
still a part of Eastside wrestling. Its
great to get to thank them, because
they were a critical part of it.
The Eagles have blown through region play this season on their way
to what will likely be another deep
playoff run.
During his 22 years as head coach,
Kosmicki said hes had some memorable moments.
In 1996, we had 11 freshmen

we can be really good,
Drummond said. Weve
got a couple of players that
everybody knows about.
But when everybody starts
to contribute, were really
strong.
Greer will take on Greenville this week, which has
spent most of the season
ranked in the top five of
Class AAAA.
We talk about wanting to be a champion and
wanting to be the best,
and when you play teams
like Greenville, you get to
see what youre made of,
Drummond said. Greenville is probably considered by most to be the
best team in our area, so
its an exciting week.
The Yellow Jackets will
end the week with matchups against Travelers Rest
and Union County.
If we can find a way
to grab those two games,
well have a nice lead on
everybody else, Drummond said. We just have
to stay focused.

Newberry was victorious,

Newberry started the
game quickly, running out

Carters game tying shot
was set up with a turnover
forced by NGUs defense
following a layup from
Divonnie Powell cut the
UMO lead to three. Karen
Donehew sparked the
quick NGU burst with a
two pointer that made the
score 79-74 with 1:08 left
in the game.
UMO would knock down
a pair of free throws on
the possession following
Carters shot to regain a
2-point edge. The Crusaders would advance to the
offensive end on the ensuing possession but a three
pointer from Carter would
draw rim as the Trojans
grabbed the rebound forcing North Greenville to
foul. Mount Olive would
then knock down three
more shots from the charity stripe to end NGUs bid
at an upset.
The Crusaders trailed
by as many as 18-points
during Mondays game
but battled back to within
seven points before the
end of the opening period.
The Trojans once again
built a double-digit lead in
the second half but North
Greenville continued to
chip away before the late
game antics which evened
the score.
The Trojans improved
to 12-3 overall and 9-1
in league play while NGU
felt o 4-9 overall and 1-7

Cameron
Carter led the Crusaders

continued to struggle offensively. The Crusaders
hit a season low .076 on
Saturday with 26-kills and
21-errors. Aaron Campbell
led North Greenville with
nine kills. Dustin King finished with six. Alexander
Schinzing tacked on 24assists while Silas Jenkins
added six digs to lead the
team.
The Pioneers took advantage of nine NGU errors in
the first half to go along
with three service aces
to overwhelm the road
weary Crusaders who left
Wednesday for the four

NGU led briefly in the second set and kept the match
close in the third but Sacred Heart took advantage

There will be prizes provided for the top three

constructive and personalized, based on the winners needs/requests.
Weve come to realize that those affected by
homelessness dont all
have the same experience,
said Williamson. One
person might need some
warm clothes for winter.
Someone else might need
new clothes for a job interview. Another might want
to use the prize money
to buy a gift for a family

Clean-freak dad
turns into hoarder
DEAR DR. ROACH: I
know youre not a psychiatrist, but I hope you can
help. My dad was a single
parent raising us kids, and
he was always clean when
it came to housework. Every room in our house was
almost spotless.
But lately, we have noticed him becoming a
hoarder and being more
disorganized. By that, I
mean keeping weeks-old
newspapers on the floor,
the kitchen table, everywhere, and he gets upset
if we try to help him clean.
Hes 79. Could it be a sign
of senility or Alzheimers
disease? -- R.S.
ANSWER: Hoarding behavior can have several
psychiatric causes, and,
indeed, a psychiatrist may
be necessary to make the
diagnosis. However, odds
are that your dad always
had some form of obsessive-compulsive disorder,
and with age has become
worse.
There are other possibilities. Fronto-temporal dementia, a type of dementia that is distinct from
Alzheimers disease, has a
variant in which personality and behavior changes
are prominent, but given
the history of what sounds
like unusual cleanliness
habits, I would suspect
that OCD is the most likely
diagnosis. There usually is
a long delay from the time
symptoms begin until
the time the diagnosis is
made. A diagnosis needs
to be made before treatment -- be it medications,
psychotherapy or some

ROACH, M.D.
combination -- can begin.
Treatment can improve
not only the hoarding behavior, but also the distress your dad is feeling. A
psychiatrist or psychologist is the expert in making the diagnosis and for
treatment.
The new booklet on
Alzheimers disease gives
a detailed presentation
of this common illness.
Readers can obtain a copy
by writing: Dr. Roach - No. 903W, 628 Virginia
Drive, Orlando, FL 32803.

DEAR DR. ROACH: In
discussing treatment of
nail fungus, you did not
mention newer laser treatments that I see advertised
by podiatrists in my area.
Are they effective? -- J.F.
ANSWER: We dont really know if they are effective, since well-done
studies havent yet proven
it; however, preliminary
evidence is suggestive.
This would be a great addition to treatment, since
