Mayor Smith announceda hearing for the UrbanEntitlement Program hostedby Mrs. Janah Murray of theCharleston County Department
of Community Service. Murrayspoke about how SullivansIsland and Isle of Palms arepart of their participating
jurisdiction, and also informedCouncil that, as far as funds areconcerned, money is broughtin directly from the FederalReserve Board to CharlestonCounty and distributed toapplicants, which consist of non-prot organizations, cities, andtowns. Through a competitiveprocess, some are chosen bythe Community DevelopmentAdvisory board, and it is thenfunneled through CharlestonCounty to award a contract.
This program operates on anannual basis and every ve
years, they ask the county, city,towns, and citizens for publicinput. Murray plans to have thesurveys back within a two weekperiod, and they will compilesurveys from all townships inCharleston county, weighingfeedback from both citizens andcouncil members alike.
Council member MadeleineMcGee expressed some concernthat their needs as a town area lot different than the towns
needs as part of CharlestonCounty. Can we speak to you onboth of these cases? she asked.
Murray said that, on thissurvey, council should speakfrom a towns perspective, andthen, as a community memberof Charleston County, that willbe collected as part of the totalsurvey that they will roll out tothe public in January.
Murray pointed out thatSullivans Island directly got a
$20,000 grant two years agoto build an ADA handicapped-accessible ramp towards thebeach beneted the public as a
whole, which is precisely what
the money is about.
Citizens CommentsResidents Everett and JoannaWhite discussed putting togetheran art bazaar off Middle St.
which would include childrenscrafts and sculpting. This
would be quite different thanhaving booths and ready-madeproducts. They are planningto invite some of the artiststhey know to perform duringthe event and hope to hold thefestival during December. EverettWhite stated that he just wantedto give council a heads up tothis possible event, and they arenot planning to serve alcohol orblock any streets. Whites mainconcern was the music, whatthey could or could not do, whilehaving live acoustic music onthat day.
Council member McGeepointed out that they would haveto ll out some event permits,and Council member ONeillexpressed some concern about
what Council deems as outdooracoustic music. Amplication
was obviously the main issuein regards to having live
performance during the day. Thesituation differs greatly at night.
White informed Council thatthey were going to try and tie inCreative Spark, and have someplays and things of that nature.All of these activities will takeplace on the Whites property.
Next, local photographer MickSmith spoke before Councilabout allowing professionalphotography on the beach. I
was able to convince the Isle of
Palms Council to do just so,said Smith, whose whole goalis to amend the towns codesto allow for one professionalphotographer, and someone
helping that photographer,to take pictures of families or
wedding parties on the beach.He said that he contacted sometowns, and that places likeWrightsville Beach, NC, has nostanding regulations of this kind,as well as Marthas Vineyard.Places in Florida like Santa BelleIsland and Boca Raton prohibitcommercial photography exceptfor in designated areas. Onthe Isle of Palms, they havealready seen photographerscoming in to buy businesslicenses, and although it maynot generate a lot of revenue,it will denitely generate some.
The Council stated that theyhave already taken the idea intoconsideration.
Resident Susan Middaughspoke in regards to rotationalcutting as a possiblemanagement method forexcessive myrtle growth. Herunderstanding was that the useof rotational cutting was not anoption to the town because it
was too expensive. She saidthat, in the management plan wecurrently have, that we are stillhaving trouble with the myrtle
and the brillo-pad effect fromthe vines. Her plan was to havea three-year cutting cycle which
would randomize the cutting,allowing some areas to grow
while others are being cut. Thisway the town wouldnt have toestimate where or when to cut.If we go in and convert everyarea to grasslands, there willbe some real losses to habitats,since myrtles are a nitrogen-xing bush. Council member
ONeill expressed some concernwith the growth under story thatcould result through cuttingevery third year.
General and NewCorrespondenceMayor Smith informed thosepresent about receiving a letterof appreciation from Mr. HalCurrey to Mrs. Lisa Darrow
which read,Thank you foryour help in making the publicinformation gathering meeting
work so well last night. Youradvice, thorough preparation,and willingness to put up withall of us are what make the workeasy, if not almost pleasant.
Mayor Smith also spoke aboutanother letter of appreciation.
This letter was from Bill Wiekesand Debbie EcKarl with theCharleston Soil and WaterConservatory. Wiekes andEcKarl extended their thankstoward the Sullivans Island FireDepartment for their hospitality

With Halloween around the corner and far toomany myths about bats out there, I thoughtit would be a good idea to share some facts
about this valuable member of the twilight sky.
MYTH: Bats are ying rodents.FACT: Bats are more related to monkeys andlemurs than they are to rodents. They are suchunique animals that scientists have placed themin a group all their own, called Chiroptera, whichmeans hand-wing.
MYTH: Bats are blind and will get caught in myhair at night.FACT: Most bats can see as well as humans. Fruitbats can see in color, having eyesight much likecats, and are well adapted to low light. Bats arealso equipped with a built-in sonar system thatallows them to navigate at fast speeds throughtotal darkness without running into objects alongthe way, including a full head of hair. This iscalled echolocation.
MYTH: Bats are ugly or dirty.FACT: Most bats are smaller than the palm ofyour hand and have very cute faces. They alsospend an enormous amount of time each daygrooming their fur, keeping it soft.
MYTH: All bats are vampires and suck blood.FACT: Of the worlds 1100+ species, only three arevampire bats and they are limited mostly to LatinAmerica. Vampire bats are very small (about the
size of a package of M&Ms). Vampire bats do notattack humans or suck our blood. In fact, theyprefer to get their teaspoon-sized meals from otheranimals. The remaining 1097 or so species of batseat insects, fruit, nectar and pollen. A few specieseat sh and frogs. Insect-eating bats eat billions
of insects each summer. They protect our cropsand keep our costs down at the market place.Fruit bats bring us over 450 commercial productsand 80 medicines through pollination and seeddispersal. Over 95% of rainforest re-growth comesfrom seeds that have been spread by fruit bats.
MYTH: Bats only live in caves.FACT: While some bats do occupy caves, manyspecies live in trees and man made structuressuch as buildings, barns, and bridges.

PROVIDED BY THE CHARLESTON RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION
Sheri Grace Wenger and herson, Ryan Ahlert, openedthe Charleston Acting
Studio on James Island a littleover three years ago for youth (6-9and 10-13 years old) and adults,but their building has recentlyundergone some spectacularrenovations to include two largerperformance areas. Though theyare both accomplished actors intheir own rights, Sheri and Ryanstill have the desire to managetheir own small, local venuefor the benet of Charlestonresidents.
Sheri graduated from the
University of South Carolina andhas lived in Charleston since1977, working with Charleston
Theatre in the early 1980s beforeopening a dinner theater onthe corner of King and CalhounStreets in a renovated fast foodbuilding. She was also an ArtisticDirector for the Footlight Players
Theatre for years and continuesto direct more than act. Now livingon Johns Island, Sheri enjoys thecommute to what others may callwork.
In the past, Ryan has directedplays for First Baptist HighSchool and his mothers theater,
as well as being involved withproductions at the College ofCharleston. While he still actsand directs quite a lot, Ryan alsoserves as the Charleston ActingStudios primary TechnicalDirector and is the man behindthe idea for producing morecomedy shows at the Studio. Heloves the Charleston area andnow lives on Folly Beach. Whenasked about his plans for thefuture, Ryan replied, I never
want to live anywhere else.
So why exactly did the motherand son duo choose James Islandfor their theater? It seems asthough the major theaters arelocated in Downtown Charleston,but Sheri and Ryan took noteof their friends triumph withthe Village Playhouse in MountPleasant and decided to considera more suburban location.Visitors are sure to be satised
with the variety of bars andrestaurants on James Island
which they can visit before orafter a show, and perhaps thebest benet is that parking is nohassle and there is no stumbling
on cobblestone streets in highheels!
Next on stage for the CharlestonActing Studio is the November 6performance of Rumpelstiltskin:
The Musical, written by StanGill with music by Cindy Bright.
This collaboration with SproutsChildrens Theatre is not tobe missed with its hilariouslyrics, beautiful ballads, magicaleffects, uproarious chase scenes,audience participation and lotsof happy endings that the wholefamily will enjoy.
Be sure to explore the differenttypes of theater offered at the
Studio as well, including atheatre-outside-the-box seriescreated by Ryan called ShortAttn. Span Thtr. This hour-long,freshly comedic and borderlinebizarre entertainment embodiesa perfect combination of shortscenes, plays, sketches andlms which will appeal to teensand adults alike. There really issomething for everyone at theCharleston Acting Studio!

There are numerous ways islanders
entertain themselves during the fall
and winter months. Activities typically
involve getting together for sporting events,
shing, boating, hunting, and, of course,
oyster roasts. Luckily for Charleston, the
recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has not
affected our aquatic resources directly, but as
a result, the Sullivans Island Fire Department
cannot, in good faith, host one of their biggest
department fundraisers of the year: the bi-
annual SIFD Oyster Roast.
The SIFD Oyster Roast has been an annual
tradition on Sullivans Island for almost 70
years and is one of the most anticipated island
events. Every year, a tractor-trailer full of gulf
oysters is brought in through the gates of the
Fish Fry Shack at Station 14 , and serves
hundreds of people over a three hour period.
As the evening ends and the oyster steamersshovel out the last bushel of oysters, those in
attendance hang around to watch the night's
sporting event on the big screen inside.
According to Fire Chief Anthony Stith, the
reason for the cancellation of this years event
is due mainly to the drastic spike in gulf
oyster prices.
Because of the oil spill, the price of gulf
oysters is extremely high, and not only that, I
dont feel like the clean-up is exactly nished
yet, said Stith.
This is not the rst time that the re
department has had to cancel an oyster
roast, either. A few years ago, after several
hurricanes stormed their way through the
Gulf, the procurement of gulf oysters became
rather difcult. However, since the oyster
supply was limited, the department put on a
lobster boil instead.
When asked if the re department could
use Bulls Bay or local oysters instead, the
Chief replied that, People are telling me all
the time to support local oystermen and buy
from local beds. The truth is that the beds
simply cannot support the numbers of people
in attendance. When prompted about having
a sh fry instead, the Chief simply stated,
Were having our annual station lighting
the rst weekend in December, so right now
were really trying to shift our focus in that
direction.
Fortunately for all, the SIFD plans to
have an oyster roast this coming February.Hopefully by this time the prices of the Gulf
oysters will have decreased, and there will be
plenty of delicious oysters to go around. This
event acts as a major fundraiser for the SIFD,
which provides daily outstanding service to
the Town of Sullivans Island.

De gal in de tickitA JOHNS ISLAND GULLAH GHOST STORY
BY SIDI LIMEHOUSE, ROSEBANK FARMS
The English began to populate theCharleston area in the late 17thcentury and their numbers multiplied
in the early18th century. Most came fromBarbados - another English colony - because
Barbados had become all used up; theland, that is. Plantations had grown andthe tillable land was under ownership andplanted. Charlestowne and the surroundingislands were new land and opportunity whichawaited those who chose to come to this newfrontier. These people were knowledgeableabout what they faced; forests and swamps.
To clear the land and to drain the swampsthey needed labor and they brought somelabor in the form of slaves, but they neededmany more slaves. Thus, the slave tradebrought the labor and the planters borrowedmoney to buy them.
Creating a working and protableplantation was no easy task. The problemsthe plantation owners faced were numerous
and daunting. One problem - who was goingto oversee these workers was quickly solved.
The English looked to Scotland for help. Theyrecruited young Scotsmen to train the slaves,and to teach them a new language. The
young Scots were most successful. That iswhy the language known as Gullah has sucha Scottish brogue.
The tale I am relating to you was told to mein 1949 by Mr. Ben Brown who was then 98
years old. (At the time, I was 11 years old.) Hehad been a slave living at Mullet Hall. He hadbelonged to Simon Legare, owner of severalplantations on Johns, Wadmalaw, and Edistoislands. He and I were friends and I learned
much from Mr. Brown. Things have changedsince those days; the really important thingsremain the same. We all spoke Gullah. We
were passengers on the same ship. This taleis told how I heard it, in Gullah. There will beno translation at the end:
Gal, she beena kinda diffent she ainhanged out wit she kind. She ben a lonereber since she 3 or 4 year old. By en by shegit de repetaton she mus be crazy. By de timeshe ben about 20 year no body see she forde longest. It come to de concluson Gal musbe ded in de wood das wher she stay. Mr.Legare ax for people to look fo em. She wasa commoty an he wan she back. No body nem. He start fo turn cold en de peoples go inde wood to get rack for to mek re. Eny how

Atlanticville on Sullivans Island
would like to welcome Brian Talley,
winemaker and owner of the highlyacclaimed Talley Vineyards, for a four-course wine-paired dinner on Wednesday,November 3, at 6:30 p.m.
Talley Vineyards, a three-generationfarm located in the Arroyo Grande andEdna Valleys of Californias south central
coast, boasts consistently high ratings frominternationally acclaimed wine critic RobertParker, who commented recently in The WineAdvocate that, One [of the] superstars for
Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in the Edna Valleyis Talley Vineyards. Brian Talleyand his team continue toturn out extremely elegant,
European-styled wines from thismicro-climate at the southernend of the Edna Valley, not farfrom Arroyo Seco. Kudos to Brian
Talley. He has always made wonderful wine, but theseare among the very best Ihave ever tasted from him.
Starting witha small test plot
in 1982 with vevarietals, Talley
Vineyards produced itsrst wine in 1986 with a
total of 450 cases. Today,the vineyard boasts 190
acres of vineyards located in two south centralcoast valleys, and produces approximately
18,000 cases of wine a year. The wineproduction process is located entirely on-site and follows stringent production rules toachieve the highest quality of wine possible.
All grapes are carefully hand-harvestedduring the cool hours of the morning,between 4 a.m. and 9 a.m., and are taken ashort distance to the winery where they are
immediately sorted and processed. The quality of the vineyards' soil and
climate are also signicant factors in thenal product. Much of the soil type of the
two valleys is reminiscent of the vineyardsof Burgundy, particularly those located in
the Cte de Nuits. Because of this, Talley
Vineyards' main focus is on the productionof Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, althoughCabernet Franc, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon,Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Gris,
Viognier, Grenache and Petite Sirah are also
grown here.Talley Vineyards has just celebrated their
25th harvest, and the 2007 releases have
garnered 91-96 points according the newestissue of Robert Parkers Wine Advocate.
Atlanticville is thrilled to have Brian Talley, third generation owner of Talley
Vineyards, out for a rare visit to the EastCoast, and look forward to what both Brianand Atlanticville Chef William Condon planto create for this second installment in their
Guest Chef series.Atlanticvilles rst wine dinner with Guest
Chef Kyle McKnight was an amazing success,with a sold out dinner and some of the most
creative, innovative and interesting dishesserved at the restaurant to date. Make yourreservations early as these dinners sell outquickly!
For more information on Talley Vineyards,visit www.talleyvineyards.com. To make yourreservation for the November 3 Guest ChefSeries Dinner, call Atlanticville General ManagerDrew Harris at 883-9452, or email [email protected]. Atlanticville is located at 2063Middle Street, Sullivans Island.

Tucked in the corner of a small boothin the commercial district of SullivansIsland, a heated debate was taking
place between several recently-arrived,musically-inclined residents of the smallisland. Immersed in conversation, theboys of the band Fowlers Mustache werebusy putting the nishing touches on theirnew album, succinctly titled The Album.
The band members were equally dividedin regards to the organization of songs ontheir debut record. The songs in question,Upside Down Sky and American Son,both arguably display the boys abilityto play any genre under the sun. Thisis everyones rst album, so if even oneperson feels a song shouldnt be on there, itshouldnt, said guitarist Nick Collins.
Although Sullivans Island-based FowlersMoustache played their rst gig together alittle less than a year ago, the band started
with several musical ideas circulatingbetween ve close friends: NicholasCollins (guitar/vocals), Matthew Stanley(lead vocals/guitar), Chris Richer (bass),
Thomas McElwee (guitar/vocals), and JohnTankersley playing the drums.
Before joining Fowlers, Stanley andRichter were involved in a band called TheMeatles in Winthrop. During a trip to theVillage Tavern in Mount Pleasant, they heardthe band with whom Nick Collins wasplaying at the time called SingularMuse. The two were very impressed,but were even more amazed whenanother friend in attendance,
Thomas McElwee, got on stage andtore up two songs on his guitar.
We had about three or four songs written [for The Meatles] around thistime, says Richter, so I told Stan that Iknew a great drummer to throw into themix (Tankersley). A few short monthslater, the newly-formed FowlersMoustache was very well received,playing to a packed house at theformer Dough Re Mi Pizzeria.
The band members quickly threwthemselves into writing more originalsongs, as well as working on covers tobolster local support in the Charleston
bar scene. Their hard work soon paid off,landing the boys consistent gigs at DoughRe Mi as well as several other bars, butthe one everyone in the band remembersmost took place this past summer. TheMustache opened up for fellow locals andfriends Sol Driven Train at the Windjammeron Isle of Palms, in which members of bothbands jammed together during each of theirsets. Following the show, the band beganto play at Arts Bar and Grill on Wednesdaynights, which ultimately provided them witha forum to try out new tunes and generallyhave a good time playing music.
What is so enjoyable about FowlersMustache is that they appeal to a veryexpansive audience. Each band memberhas their own personal taste in music.Whether its Bob Dylan, Phish, Weezer,
The Red Hot Chili Peppers, 311, the AvettBrothers, or others, the diverse inuence
denitely shines through in their originals.The Album is composed of twelve of theseoriginal tunes, all of which features eachband member equally.
Since this is their rst collective ventureinto recording, the band hooked up withDave Fuller, a member of Charlestons EastCoast Party Band, who helped them withproduction. While Stanley
writes most of the songs, Collins has alsowritten a few, including The Saga of OllieParker, an upbeat funk-rock tune about apainting of some old salt he owns. Stanleyslyrics are all very three dimensional andpersonal, tackling heavy subjects such as theGulf Oil Spill. Despite having heavy subjectmaterial in his songs, Stanleys lyrics areoften humorous and whimsical as well, witha style reminiscent of Levon Helm from TheBand. The song Viola displays an AllmanBrothers-style of rock n roll, while the songAint Life Hard, which includes Fuller onaccordion, shows a more calculated andclassical side of the group. However, the bandreally loves to rock-out to autobiographicaltracks like The Boneyard, and Waitingfor June. The whole album explores eachindividuals taste, and combines them intotracks that ow extremely well.
Not only did the band have very little help
in their recording venture, Chris Richterand Thomas McElwee also collaborated todesign the cover of the record, which theyplan to print themselves. The rst runof The Album will be around 200 copiesas the band waits to gauge its generalreception. Afterward, they plan to follow upas they have always done, booking showsand marketing themselves around theCharleston area. Richter said, of whats to
come, Were just going to keep it fun, butstill take the music seriously.
Fowlers Mustache played TheAlbum release party this pastWednesday at the Pour House, and thefull band will be there on Halloween,
as well as on November 20 and 26.
Nick Collins and Thomas McElwee also playacoustic sets every Thursday at Midtown onthe peninsula. As they have been known to beactive in charity work, Fowlers Moustacheis also playing at a mac-n-cheese cook-off
for charity downtown at the CarriageCo. on November 12.

Daniel Island to host Nationwide Tour ChampionshipBY RICHARD HRICIK

Back when I was a professor,I would secretly make a Xon a blank sheet of paper
and hold up the opposite blankside to the class and ask, Whatson this paper? They would all
answer, Nothing. I would keepasking them, egging them onuntil a student would get tiredof my apparent stupidity and
would emphatically state that thepaper was blank. Then I wouldask them, Are you willing to betme a million dollars that theresnothing on this paper? Andin a dramatic air I would turnit over to reveal the X - a quickbut profound lesson in seeingthings from outside of their ownperspective, and also to introduceto them that I, as their teacher,
would help them see what theycouldnt see on their own.
I used this lesson becauseit quickly unlocked the mostpowerful of all human traits:
willingness. Willingness toacknowledge that what we oftensee is the product of emotion andbias, and unless and until weare willing to concede that oursubjective vision may be wrong,it will never change and we will
miss learning many objectivetruths.
Golf contains many objectivetruths. There is the cold math ofa tally of the number of strokesmade on a hole or in a round, the
number of yards a ball traveled ordidnt, and the crooked ight of aball - or absence thereof - uponcompletion of a swing. We aregiven objective information and,cursed with this information, wecan accept it, reject it, or try tolearn from it.
My game recently was goingsideways as there were a few shotsin every round that went wildlyoff target. I was really at a loss asI felt my overall play was decentand I was making good swings. Ikept tweaking and adjusting thestance, backswing length, grippressure - but nothing seemed tobe working. Objectively the scorerevealed failure, but subjectivelyI believed I would nd the answer
with just one more tweak. Butnothing gets your attention likerepeated personal failure, so afteranother poor round, I decided toseek some help.
My current golf guru took allof about 30 seconds standing behind me and watching me hit a
few shots when he asked, Whereare you aiming? I told him andpointed at my intended target.He had a puzzled look on his faceand then he chuckled, Thats noteven close to where you are linedup.
In a brief moment I hadan answer. There were nocomplicated explanations of hiprotation, swing planes, or handposition; my obstacle was me.I wasnt aiming myself or myclub correctly. At rst I was indisbelief, but he kept showingme. The amazing part was nomatter how hard I kept trying toaim, I could only aim correctlyfor about one or two shots andthen suddenly I would aim myfeet, shoulders, arms and theclub completely off target, stillbelieving I was on target.
I kept doing this over and over
and repeating the pattern, all the while believing that each timeI was aimed correctly, when I
would again be corrected. Youreally cant aim? the swingdoctor announced as he laughedin equal disbelief. At rst asmall part of me was angry thatI was unable to complete sucha simple task and that I was asource of amusement, but then itbecame funny; hysterically, milk-through-the-nose funny that, forseemingly no rhyme or reason,from one moment to the next Ididnt know where I was aiming.
I now have a new practice drill simply addressing a golf ball
and making sure my shoulders,hips, feet and clubface are all ina line. This is not a complicatedact, but apparently for me onethat is quite difcult to repeat.
Did I really want to know thatI cant aim? Well, yes and no.
That I am presently making such
a basic mistake despite yearsof playing is a decent rap to myfragile golng ego. But on theother hand I learned somethingvery profound: that aim has twoparts. Knowing when I am aimedcorrectly is great, but learning toknow when I am aimed incorrectlyis vastly more important.
There is a quotation from theRoman Stoic philosopher Senecathat states: Our plans miscarrybecause they have no aim. Whena man does not know what harborhe is making for, no wind is theright wind.
The Stoics believed that the
truth (about ourselves and the world around us) could onlybe discovered through theuse of reason divorced fromemotion involving constant self-examination and dedicatedpractice.
Golf was not around in the timeof Seneca, but I have a feeling thegame would have appealed to himgreatly.
Until next time, play well.

Afriend of mine, another
chiropractor, once told me
that he described himself
as an O doctor. When people
meet him socially they inevitably
ask him what he does for aliving, and he proudly says, Im
a doctor of chiropractic. Their
response, more often than not, is,
Ooooh
Chiropractors have an uphill
battle on the credibility front,
and there are many reasons
for this. There is a fair amount
of misinformation and partial
understanding on how and why
chiropractic care works and the
reasoning behind it. Simply put, a
chiropractor is trained in how and
why the body works (physiology)
and moves (biomechanics), with
a major emphasis on the spinalcolumn and all its components.
Our schooling is three and a half
years (usually after a four year
bachelors degree) and many of
our classes use medical school
textbooks.
People are surprised to hear
that chiropractic students have
classes in Gross Dissection
(yes, with real cadavers),
biochemistry, lots of neurology,
osteology (bones), and radiology
and pathology (when things go
wrong in the body). We get a
taste of obstetrics, embryology,
microbiology, urology, geriatrics
and nutrition.
Chiropractic students dont
study pharmacology. We dont
prescribe drugs; it is out of our
scope of practice and, quite
frankly, we prefer it that way. To
be fair, medical students dont
study techniques to adjust the
spine.
We graduate with a Doctorate
in Chiropractic degree. We take
a boat load of National Board
exams to qualify to practice,
then we have to pass a state
board exam in the state in which
we want to practice. In school
we are enveloped in all things
chiropractic, then we graduate
and get hit with the real world.
To our surprise, many
folks, professionals andunprofessionals, dont think we
are real doctors and often refer to
us as quacks.
When I rst opened my practice,
my second patient was a middle
aged woman, a bit heavy, with
mid-back pain behind her right
shoulder blade. I asked her to lie
on her back and proceeded to do
an abdominal exam. She pointed
out to me that her back was on
the other side. I told her I knew
that. When I put pressure on the
right side just under her ribs, her
eyes got really big, her legs came
off the table and she told me inno uncertain terms that when I
pressed there it really hurt.
In one of my many diagnosis
classes we were taught to do
abdominal exams, heart exams,
lung exams, prostate exams,
etc., and we learned an easy-to-
remember phase about cystitis(inamed gall bladder) which was
fraught with alliteration: fat,
female, fertile and forty.
Additionally, I knew from
embryology that when the human
fetus forms in the womb, the
cells that become the gall bladder
start forming in the area where
the right scapulae forms and
then drops down to snuggle in
under the liver. Add to that the
fact that, in one of my many
neurology courses, I learned
that where an organ forms in an
embryo, thats where the organ
gets its rst innervations from thenervous system. Your nervous
system thinks that the organ
is still where it was when your
body started forming, so when
that organ experiences pain, it
is referred to the site where it
formed. (Remember Fred Sanford
grabbing his left shoulder, faking
a heart attack and yelling, Its
the big one!? Guess where the
heart forms in an embryo?)
I knew she had a gall bladder
problem and that dysfunction
took precedence over a
chiropractic adjustment. Could
I have adjusted her? You bet,
but her gall bladder would still
have been inamed. She went
to her MD and was treated for
cystitis and later became my best
referring patient.
As a doctors of chiropractic we
are trained to nd what is wrong
with you and when or when not
to adjust.

Its been an extra long summer
of sun and fun, but Im starting
to realize that Im going to have
to be more careful during the
long days of sunshine next year.
I dont know who that stranger
is staring back at me from themirror, but it most denitely is
not me. That stranger looks tired,
haggard, and old! I, on the other
hand, have always looked young
and vibrant, and had lovely skin
just like my mother. Whoever I
just saw staring back at me looks
as if she may have basked in the
sun religiously in her formative
years; possibly sporting baby oil,
or olive oil, and a home-madereector of tin foil. She might
even have cooked herself to where
she blistered, and peeled in long
sheets like a snake. Wait a minute,
I did those things, didnt I? Looks
like it may have nally caught up
with me. Seeing as I am a doctor,
I suppose Id better start following
my own advice. No more, Do as
I say, not as I do. People are too
smart for that these days.
So heres the good news. Its
not too late. Its never too late. We
were bad girls and boys, and we
did the damage, but there are ways
of dealing with it that we didnt
have before to prevent further
damage. Lets start with the old
stuff: sun block. Wear it. Give it
20-30 minutes to absorb before
you leave and youre good to go. It
doesnt have to be expensive, and
if it is preservative-free it wont
burn your eyes. Blue Lizard will
protect you through sweating and
swimming, but even SPF 15 with
UVA and UVB blockers will help.
Seek shade, wear sunglasses
and wear protective clothing: the
tighter the weave, the better. And
stay away from the wet T-shirt
contest. Not just because yourmother would be horried, but
because the SPF of the fabric
decreases when wet.
When we do have damage,
however, what are the visible
signs and how do we treat them?
Yes, I am talking lines, ne
and deep (call them wrinkles)
and blotchy pigmentation:
dark spots, red spots and
white spots. The treatments
for sun damage abound. Non-
prescription medications include
soy, vitamins C & E, AHAs and
Retinol. Prescription medications
may include Tretinoin - a vitamin
A derivative - or Hydroquinones,
which are used topically to
improve skin clarity and
tone. A number of procedures
are also available, from
microdermabrasion to chemical
peels to laser skin resurfacing. It
depends on how much damage
you have, how quickly you
want it to look better, and your
goals. Some good news is that
treatments that were once out of
reach for regular folks like you
and me are now reasonable. The
right lasers in the right hands
are not painful and in fact, donot even necessitate topical
anesthesia. There are chillers
which cool the skin before, during
and after the treatments. The
procedures can be done with
little to no downtime, and are
affordable.
I suppose at this point its time
to face the music, and admit
that the scary face in the mirror
actually is mine, and commit to
treating it better. If I follow my
own advice, as I resolved to do,
maybe by Halloween my costume
will be scarier than my mirror. Or
should I aim for Christmas?

[A man] should behave like those archers who, if they are skilful, when the target seems too distant, knowthe capabilities of their bow and aim a good deal higher than their objective, not in order to shoot so highbut so that by aiming high they can reach the target.-Niccolo Macchiavelli, The Prince.

At the beginning of this year, The Island Eye News reported adownward spiral in median sale price and average price persquare foot for homes sold on the Charleston Trident Multiple
Listing Service (MLS) in 2009.What has happened since? In Charleston County, with the
exception of July, more homes sold in each month compared to thesame month a year earlier. Further, during the past four quarters(Oct. 09 through Sept. 10), there has been a 24.6% increase inthe number of homes (single family, condos/villas, townhomes) sold
when compared to the prior 12-month period. Median sales pricealso has increased about 2% and now is at $234,900. Further, thenumber of homes on the market has declined 7.5% with averagemonthly inventory at 16 months (a balanced market is nine months).
The price per square foot (s/f), however, decreased 2% to $138. Thisremains a buyers market, but one that has generally improved forsellers.
Last February I projected home sales will be strong in CharlestonCountys lower end markets, [but] there is little optimism for a turn-around in luxury homes. And, in fact, median price of homesselling for $750,000 or more decreased 8.3% during the last fourquarters compared to 12 months earlier, and the price per s/f fell
16% to $363. Months of inventory, however, declined (still very highat 48 months) as there are 10.4% fewer homes on the market andsales volume increased 26%.
Thus, the real estate market is stabilizing in Charleston County,but sellers of higher-end properties have yet to see any meaningfulturn-around. About one-in-ve homes for sale in the county are in
this high-end range, with a greater proportion found on the barrierislands and similar-type communities.
Table 1 is a snapshot of specic communities, using MLS sales
data from the last four quarters. Though there is great variationamong these markets, the median sales price and price per square
foot are well above those for Charleston County. These data are useful for comparative purposes, but become
more meaningful when contrasted to the preceding twelve monthsof real estate sales data (Oct. 08-Sept. 09), as shown in Table 2. Forexample, are markets trending away from the huge buyer advantageand giving a bit more leverage to sellers in high-end communities?
Based solely on median sales price and price per square foot, thegreatest gain of seller home value is Sullivans Island. It was alsothe lone community with a decrease in homes sold.
Another factor contributing to seller advantage is inventory.Seabrook is the only market with a reduction in both the number of
homes entering the market and withdrawing from itcontributingto inventory reduction. It also had a small reduction in the days onthe market before a home sold.
In contrast, most markets declined on both factors (SP and costper s/f), creating an even more favorable market for the buyer. And,as homes languish on the market, the buyer has more leverageto negotiate a lower price. Based on these data, the communities
with the greatest increase in buyer value are Isle of Palms and WildDunes.
The data in Table 2 (next column) is also evidence of theunevenness of the recovery across high-end communities withinCharleston County. Most striking is the depression among luxuryhome sales between these two 12-month periods. While there hasbeen substantial overall improvement within these communities, atleast in terms of homes sold, the decline in home sales at or abovethe $750k level is notable. The only exceptions are Seabrook and
Folly Beach, which showed just a slight increase.
Another way of imperfectly judging home values across differenthigh-end communities is the percentage of cash buyers. Creditmarkets have, of course, tightened, but there is substantial moneyon the sidelines ready to ow into appreciable assets.
In Charleston County, among the more than 4500 home salesduring the last 12 months, 17% have been cash transactions (a 5%increase). As shown in Table 3, with the exceptions of Daniel Islandand Edisto, there has been a greater percentage of cash buyersandthis has signicantly increased in the last four quarters.
Some of theseincreases in cash
transactions maybe the result ofbuyer difculties
in qualifying for a jumbo mortgageor a lendernot offeringfavorable terms.It is certainlyan indicatorof investorcondence. By
this standard,high-end
communities are seen as better investment values now than a yearearlier. Seabrook Island enjoys the greatest percentage of cash
buyers in both time periods, while Folly Beach shows the greatestchange in cash-only transactions.Do these (or some of these) buyers know something the rest of us
should? Clearly, by conventional measures, the mainstream housingmarket in Charleston County has stabilized, if not bottomed-out.
The art of investing, however, is to look ahead of the numbersandby that measure this may be the best time for savvy investors to buyinto some of these communities.

If you have young children, or even if you
just have some in your neighborhood, you know they will soon acquire large
amounts of free candy, obtained byimpersonating witches, vampires and otherscary creatures. As an adult, of course, youreunlikely to encounter too many monstersafter Halloween ends, yet as you go throughlife you will nd some things that are trulyalarming such as scary investment moves.
Here are a few of these frightful actions: Investing too conservatively You
could try to avoid investment riskby putting all your money into veryconservative investments. However,as youre probably aware, thoseinvestments typically pay very littlein the way of interest, so your moneycould actually lose purchasing power,even with a mild rate of ination.
Investing too aggressively Just asinvesting too conservatively can becounterproductive, so can investingtoo aggressively. You would obviouslylike your money to grow, but theinvestments with the highest growthpotential are usually also those thatcarry the greatest risk to your principal.
Put ting too much money in too fewinvestments If you put too many of
your investment dollars into just one
or two types of assets and a downturnhits those assets, your portfolio willprobably take a big hit.
Wait ing too long to invest As aninvestor, your biggest asset may betime. The more years in which you haveto invest, the greater the likelihoodthat you can make progress toward
your important nancial goals. Taking a timeout from investing
During periods of signicant marketvolatility, such as what weve seen overthe past few years, you might be temptedto take a timeout from investingand stick all your money into veryconservative vehicles until everythingblows over. But the nancial markets
will never be totally calm, nor will theybe predictable. Market rallies can startunexpectedly. If youre not invested
when that happens, you may miss outon growth opportunities.
Ignoring tax-advantaged investmentopportunities When you invest in atax-deferred investment account, suchas your 401(k) and a traditional IRA,
your money has the opportunity to growfaster than it would if it were placed inan investment on which you paid taxesevery year. If you arent contributingto your 401(k) and you havent opened
an IRA, youre missingout on a great chanceto build resources forretirement.
To make sure youdont fall victim tothese scary investment
moves, youneed onlyfollow afew simpleprinciples.First, take thelong view. You
will see upsand downs inthe short term,but historicallythe market hasperformed wellover the longterm. (Keep inmind, though, that pastperformance is no guarantee of what willhappen in the future.) Second, diversify yourholdings among a variety of investments.Diversication by itself cannot guaranteea prot or protect against loss, but it canhelp reduce the effects of volatility. Try tobuild a diversied portfolio based on yourrisk tolerance, time horizon and long-termgoals. And nally, consider boosting your401(k) contributions whenever your salaryincreases and fully funding your IRA each
year.Halloween comes but once a year, but
scary investment moves can haunt you fora lifetime so take the right steps to helpavoid them.
