Dorchester County was named No. 3 and Berkeley County was named No. 7. Marlboro, Dillon and Marion counties ranked at the bottom. According to the report, the rankings provide "a glimpse into the status of the state of South Carolina. When children thrive, they meet educational milestones, live in economically stable homes and in supportive communities, and they are more likely to grow into productive, contributing citizens of our state."The rankings were calculated by weighing 16 "indicators," including third-grade reading proficiency, infant mortality and the number of children living in concentrated areas of poverty. Hospital settles false claims allegationsAnMed Health in Anderson recently agreed to pay the federal government $7 million to settle allegations that the hospital violated the False Claims Act by submitting fraudulent Medicare claims. According to a press release about the settlement, the U.S. government alleged that "AnMed Health billed for radiation oncology services for Medicare patients when a qualified practitioner was not immediately available to provide assistance ...

The 'Farmer Florist' is the Northwest's Newest Bumper Crop - Seattlemag

Matt Dillon’s team at the café.Kelly Sullivan, owner of the South Seattle-based Botanique floral design studio, may just epitomize the term “urban farmer.” The former professional modern dancer started gardening in her backyard as a hobby 10 years back, crafting the occasional bouquet for a friend, and created her first cutting garden five years ago. As requests mounted, she launched her wedding floral design business.Specializing in organic, whimsical arrangements that are full of movement (no surprise given her dancing background), Sullivan grows garden roses, dahlias, hydrangeas, cosmos, clematis vines and other flora in the 800-square-foot cutting garden behind her Seward Park home. Since Sullivan operates with limited space, flowers are grown for specific purposes and according to season, rather than in large quantities of any given flower type; whatever she doesn’t grow herself she sources from the Seattle Wholesale Growers Market. “What we grow is dictated exclusively by what we love and what we can’t get elsewhere,” she explains. The floral design studio offers periodic workshops; attendees spend a delightful afternoon plucking their own blooms from the cutting garden and learning the ins and outs of floral design.Sullivan finds that nowadays her clients are asking more questions about where their flowers come from and that the lush, organic look many of them are hoping for is naturally suited to the blooms grown in the Northwest. “People are becoming more aware of locally grown flowers and what that means, even compared to five years ago,” she says. “It’s a movement, for sure.”... http://seattlemag.com/home-and-garden/farmer-florist-northwests-newest-bumper-crop

58-year-old Beaufort flower shop to reopen in August - Hilton Head Island Packet

After working on a luxury skincare line and getting it on the shelves at Harrods, Stone took her two sons on a summer trip to South Carolina in 2013. Vacationing on Fripp Island with friends and family brought back happy memories of growing up in the South. Returning to London was a little sad for Stone and her sons -- ultimately, the city's "cold, gray" weather and commuter culture weren't working for the trio anymore.

Tennessee's 2019 Offseason Outlook: Safety - 247Sports

The Vols got a glimpse of life with them not in the picture last season, when Abernathy missed four games due to injury and Kelly didn't play much defensively outside of the starts he made against South Carolina and Charlotte.Abernathy, slowed by injury in two of his three seasons as a starter, had just 38 tackles and three tackles for loss in 2018 after he was third on the team with 81 tackles the previous season, while Kelly was hindered the past two seasons by knee problems that were bad enough he won't be continuing his football career.WHO'S HERE> Nigel Warrior (Sr.), Theo Jackson (Jr.), Shawn Shamburger (Jr.), Cheyenne Labruzza (R-So.), Trevon Flowers (So.), Brandon Davis (R-Fr.), Jaylen McCollough (Fr.)Warrior returns for his senior season and presumably will remain in his starting role. The former top-100 prospect has yet to make the kind of impact the Vols have hoped he would, though he's been Tennessee's second-leading tackler the past two seasons. Despite his production, Warrior occasionally struggled with his pursuit angles and tackling in run support and in coverage, but he likes the Pruitt, knows new defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Derrick Ansley from recruiting and has one final season to put it all together.The competition for the other starting safety spot alongside Warrior quietly could be one of the better ones on the team this offseason.Flowers has be to considered the favorite even though he had some freshman moments last September before a collarbone injury during the open date essentially made him a non-factor for the rest of the season. He's a favorite of Tennessee's coaching staff and should benefit from a full offseason of reps as he continues to transition from baseball to football, which he didn't play in high school until his senior year. He was starting to turn the corner last year when he got hurt.Jackson and Shamburger drew starts and saw increased playing time when Abernathy and Flowers were injured in the middle of last season, and each had their moments, both good and bad. They figure to remain in the mix for playing time at safety and the Star/Money positions, which both played last season. Shamburger was in and out of Pruitt's doghouse last season (he didn't even make the travel roster for the Georgia game and started at Auburn two weeks later), but the Vols still think he can be a quality player.Labruzza has played in 11 games, primarily on special teams, the past two seasons, but Davis should be able to get in the mix in the secondary after redshirting last season... https://247sports.com/college/tennessee/Article/Tennessee-Vols-safety-2019-Offseason-Outlook-Nigel-Warrior-Trevon-Flowers-129598306/
