  • 14 Western Carolinian November 2,1995 Environment Auriga: Creator of the Chariot by Cray Sheedy StaffReporter Auriga is the Greek creator of the chariot. The Greeks believed it was necessary for Auriga to invent the chariot because he was crippled. As the tale is told, Auriga was the son of Athena, the goddess of wisdom. But his birth was the result of rape, and he was therefore unwanted. In order for Athena to keep her child, she had to keep him in a chest. The chest was guarded by snakes so that nobody could harm the child. Although Auriga became a king, he was crippled by his childhood confinement and therefore needed a chariot to get around. Auriga is visible Polaris high in the northeast evening sky. He appears to be a 5- figured formation. His pattern is similar in appearance to a pentagon. The brightest star in Auriga is Capella. Capella is a binary star, which means that it is a double-star system. The stars are held together by a mutual gravitational force that makes them orbit each other. Not shown in scale with Polaris "HIV" continued from the previous page A, vitamin E, zinc, iron, and copper. Yet oversupplementation of the same nutrients can result in immune suppression. A safe recommendation is to take a multivitamin and mineral supplements. Supportive and nonjudgmental care is very helpful to AIDS patients. It is important to include the family or friends or the primary caregiver in the nutritional support plan. Tips to improve the nutritional status of Aids patients: Safe and sanitary handling of food because HIV and Aids patients are susceptible to food-borne illnesses. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) also cautions people with HIV about eating raw or undercooked foods such as fish because they carry bacteria which may multiply even when refrigerated. In case of oral and esophageal pain during eating, alternative feeding methods such as tube feeding of liquid nutritional products (like Ovaltine™) are recommended. Snacking between meals to maintain the caloric levels is also suggested. Most of all understanding of a value of a good diet will protect the patient against nutritional complication and will increase his/her life span. Raptor Center Gives Birds a Second Chance by Colin Gooder Associate Editor Anyone who has suffered from a broken arm or leg may take it for granted that family, friends or emergency personnel will cart them off to the hospital or medical clinic where trained professionals will provide the best treatment available. While it may be expensive, at least we receive the necessary medical attention. But what would it be like if there were no hospitals, no clinics, and no doctors or surgeons to put us back together again? There would be no setting of the bone, no cast to protect and stabilize the injury, and no antibiotics to prevent infection. If you're human, you might be able to help yourself with a little acquired knowledge and initiative for the most minor injuries, but birds don't stand a chance. They rely on natural instinct to survive in the wild. Unfortunately, an injured bird cannot fly; and when grounded their natural instincts are practically useless. That's why Deborah Griffin founded the Carolina Raptor Center in 1981- to create a medical facility for birds that are found injured in the counties of North Carolina. The Carolina Raptor Center is a non-profit organization established for the purpose of providing care and rehabilitative services to North Carolina's feathered inhabitants-endangered, rare, and otherwise- that are brough to the center. According to Felicia Payne, an employee of the Carolina Raptor Center, the process the birds undergo is "much like when people- humans-go to the doctor or hospital." The birds are first admitted, then they receive their own record and their own chart. They are examined and X-rayed by either trained personnel or volunteer licensed veterinarians, at which point they may undergo surgery. After this preliminary stage, a bird may spend anywhere from a few days to several weeks in intensive care. When the bird recovers sufficiently, it is moved outside to the exercise cage. The exercise cage is a 50-100 foot flight cage in which the birds can exercise their flight muscles and fully recuperate. When the patients heal sufficiently, volunteers transport the birds to a wilderness area close to the spot where they were found injured. According to Payne, "We try to release them as close as possible to the place that they were picked up. It may sound stupid to put them back in the same territory where they were injured by hunters, but that's the habitat in which they live. It wouldn't be right to take them anywhere else, and it could be hazardous to the birds." Until May of 1982, the Carolina Raptor Center was headquartered in two small trailers in Huntersville. Then the center received a $100,000 donation to build the Edna S. Moretti building from which it now operates. The new 4,000 square foot building houses the raptor medical facility and rehabilitative center. For five years, the Raptor Center was totally run by volunteers. In 1986 the state made it possible for the center to be staffed by professional veterinarians and rehabilitators. But the North Carolina Raptor Center still relies heavily on the contributions of volunteers to share the workload and on donations by those who want to help their feathered friends on this earth.

Have triazine pesticides used in Christmas tree production had any potential impact on drinking water wells in Western North Carolina? Scientists at North Carolina State University recently found some answers to this question by selecting and testing water samples from drinking water wells most likely to be affected by pesticide use because of their location near Avery County tree farms. "As part of a national program, we sampled wells to evaluate the presence of triazines and their breakdown by-products, called metabolites, in high-use areas," states Dr. Richard A. McLaughlin, pesticides and water quality specialist with the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set three parts per billion (ppb) for anazine and four ppb for simazine as the lifetime health advisory limit, or Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL), for these triazine pesticides in drinking water. McLaughlin said that 44 high-risk wells and springs were sampled and tested in university water quality laboratories in the first study, and one well out of the 44 total tested contained atrazine as a level of 3.14 ppb. Use of the well for drinking water has been discontinued until the well can be replaced. Twenty-four wells contained traces of triazines, with atrazine and one of its metabolites having the highest concentrations. The most important key to preventing drinking water contamination of any kind, states Dr. Gregory D. Jennings, extension watershed management specialist, is proper well construction. "Results of statewide well water studies point out again and again the need for adequate well protection by homeowners," said Jennings. "Well users need to look at the location of their well in relation to a possible source of contamination, such as cropland and septic tanks. They also need to be sure wells are properly cased, grouted and protected from external contamination, and that fertilizer or pesticide mixing, loading or storage is kept far away from wells." Triazine pesticides such as simazine and atrazine are labeled for weed control in Christmas tree production. Atrazine use has decreased markedly, however, as growers have adopted Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and Best Management Practdces (BMPs), according to McLaughlin. To that end, the Cooperative Extension Service requested and received a grant from the Division of Environmental Management in the N.C. Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources to expand programs already in place, and will use them to demonstrate and promote use of these practices in the county to protect water quality. BMPs for pesticides also include practices such as proper pesticide mixing and loading, spraying to avoid drift, and leaving unsprayed strips along streams. Info, provided by N.C.
