race for the cure may set participation record

s

aturday’s 19th annual Susan g. komen Lowcountry race for the cure 5k has the potential for not only blowing away a participation record but becoming the second biggest race in South carolina and even breaking into the top 100 races in the united States. But it’s not because the race is getting substantially more runners, joggers and walkers. it’s because everyone will be timed and, therefore, officially counted. Before, participants had the option not to be timed, and easily twothirds chose that option. komen Lowcountry affiliate coordinator Lisa Jones stresses that the decision to time all the participants should not scare off leisurely walkers. “we did it simply because it’s more efficient,” Jones said. “walkers should not feel like they need to walk any faster because of it.” timing all participants — and cooper river Bridge run officials can attest to this — will pay off in national running rankings. after officials decided to time walkers, Bridge run numbers leaped to more than 30,000, and the

race became among the top 10 biggest races in the united States. of the 18 previous Lowcountry race for the cure events, the official record is 3,070 in 2010, even though event officials have long boasted of 10,000 participants (many don’t make the distinction between registrants and actual participants). with timing, that official number should, conservatively, double. The caveat, particularly with walkers, is the weather as forecasts for rain keep many indoors. if 6,000 are timed Saturday, komen Lowcountry jumps to the second biggest race in South carolina behind the Bridge run. and if komen Lowcountry gets to the 8,200 mark, it contends for a spot

among the top 100 largest u.S. races and top 20 u.S. 5ks. granted, many breast cancer survivors, families and other people may not care about rankings, but it does underscore the impact of the event and makes it nationally prestigious. Many of the biggest 5k races in the united States, after all, are race for the cure events. why wouldn’t komen Lowcountry want to be part of that force? Meanwhile, Jones said komen Lowcountry’s total goals for this year, which include a 1-mile fun run and walk, are 10,000-12,000 registrants and fundraising of $1 million. Last year’s event drew 10,600 registrants and raised $900,000, 75 percent of which stays in the Lowcountry to fund breast cancer screening and services. The Lowcountry komen race for the cure event kicks off at 8 a.m. Saturday with a Survivor celebration at Family circle Stadium on daniel island. The 1-mile fun run and walk follows at 8:30 a.m. and the timed 5k at 9:15 a.m. packet pickup and late race registration will be at Family

circle Stadium 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Friday and starting at 7 a.m. Saturday. Because of traffic congestion, participants are strongly urged to take free shuttles leaving from tanger outlet’s old navy store and Mount pleasant towne centre’s gap store starting at 6:15 a.m. Saturday. The last shuttle returning from daniel island to those centers will leave the island at 11:45 a.m. Those driving to the race are strongly urged to carpool and to arrive early. www.komenlowcountry. org

Folly Beach pier, where the bike ride and 3-mile run will begin and end. online registration for the Folly Beach challenge triathlon ends today. Late registration ($44 for individuals, $76-$96 for teams) will take place 4-6 p.m. Friday at the pier. packet pickup will resume 6:30-7:30 a.m. Saturday. There will be no raceday registration, and the race is capped at 300 participants. www.ccprc.com/folly challenge

halloween happenings are in full swing i

don’t know about you, but whenever october rolls around, i always break out the scary movies. even when i take trips to the theater, it’s most likely for a fright night film. when it comes to classic horror movies, there’s a pretty short list. But on that list would be the original “Frankenstein” (1931) and “Bride of Frankenstein” (1935). and while many may have these gems at home, what better way to celebrate halloween than with a trip to the theater for a spooky double feature. That’s right, folks, both of the classic movies will be played on wednesday in celebration of universal’s 100th anniversary. The event will begin with tcM host robert osborne as he treats audiences to exclusive interviews conducted at this year’s tcM classic Film Festival. Joining him will be karloff’s daughter, Sara karloff, along with Bela Lugosi Jr., the son of the classic “dracula” star, and academy award-winning makeup artist rick Baker. all three will talk about classic horror movies, how legendary icons such as Boris karloff and Bela Lugosi helped define the genre, and how today’s horror films measure up to the classics. The showing will begin at 7 p.m. at azalea Square Stadium 16, 215 azalea Square Blvd. in Summerville, and charles towne Square 18, 2401 Mall drive in north charleston. tickets are $12.50. go to www.fathomevents. com.

halloween in swamp

movie premiere

on a haunted walking trail through the woods. The cost is $15. For those looking for something a little less spooky, the pumpkin trail, an unhaunted lighted walking trail, will be open to the younger kids. There also will be a jump castle, music, a campfire with a marshmallow roast and Mike Miller telling family-friendly stories. The family fun activities cost $5. halloween in the Swamp will run 7:30-10:30 p.m. today-Saturday. Food will be available for purchase. check out www.cypress gardens.info.

family fright nights

Magnolia plantation and gardens off ashley river road is getting in on the halloween action, hosting its fourth annual Family Fright nights.

Food and beverages will be available for purchase. tickets are $10 per person, $40 for a carload of five. call 571-1266.

pumpkin patch & maze while Legare Farms on Johns island has been running its pumpkin patch & Maze every weekend this month, the real fun begins this weekend.

Boris Karloff stars as Dr. Frankenstein’s Monster in “Frankenstein.” instead of the traditional corn maze, the farm has a Myrtle Maze carved into 10 acres of wax myrtles. on Friday and Saturday, a haunted maze will be offered 8-10 p.m. if the spooky stuff isn’t for you, pick out a pumpkin (everything from pie to carving pumpkins will be available), take a hayride, build your own scarecrow, mine for gems, ride a horse, visit and feed the barnyard animals, and more. gate admission is $1 per person (print out a coupon for $1 off). after you get in the gate, events range from free to $10; pumpkins cost up to $20 based on the size. concessions will be available for purchase. hours for the pumpkin patch & Maze are 5-9 p.m. Fridays, 10 a.m.-9 p.m. Saturdays and 1-6 p.m. Sundays. Find out more by calling 559-0788 or going to legare farms.com.

Bonner, who is now 15, will be in attendance. while the movie is heartwarming, it’s noteworthy that some of the movie was filmed in the Lowcountry at local businesses and at charleston scenic areas. The film will roll at 7:10 p.m. Friday.

‘Bill W.’

AA saved him, but not totally

By Stephanie Merry The Washington Post

movie review

is name was Bill, and he was an alcoholic. But william wilson wasn’t just any guy with a thirst for liquor; he was the self-proclaimed floundering father of alcoholics anonymous, which, more than 75 years after its inception, now counts about 2 million active members around the globe. The documentary “Bill w.” is the intermittently inspiring, sometimes draining story of the Vermont native behind the 12 steps. wilson was born in 1895 and downed his first drink in his early 20s. Letters and speeches reveal what may sound familiar to many: the ecstatic impact of that first cocktail. For the often-depressed wilson, imbibing seemed like a cure-all that unleashed a stellar conversationalistin-waiting (for as long as he could stay awake). There may be no predestination for addiction, but wilson was certainly at a disadvantage. in addition to having an alcoholic father, he had obsessive preoccupations that started in childhood, and his heavy early hardships included parental abandonment and the death of his high school sweetheart. it took 17 years and countless benders between that first sip in 1917 and the moment wilson had a spiritual awakening, leading him to quit drinking cold turkey. although he died in 1971, wilson tells much of his own story thanks to a trove of staticky recorded speeches, during which he discusses his tug of war between missteps and progress. The audio plays over archival photos or re-enactments.

P

ark circle offers a splendid collection of restaurants, including cork, eVo, Fratello’s, idle hour, Johnny’s, and Sesame Burgers and Beer. on your next visit, think about widening your reach to include Quisqueya deli. The sandwiches demand your consideration. true, Quisqueya features groceries and choice hispanic products, but the back of the shop reveals the true find: a counter-service delicatessen, which cuts and creates a heady collection of sandwiches. The deli maintains a stable of classic Boar’s head cold cuts — roast beef, ham, turkey, pastrami, bologna and spiced ham — all carved into portions on the meat slicer. The same goes for the cheese, tomato and onion, chopped and served with

if you go what: Quisqueya deli and groceries where: 1073 e. montague ave., north charleston hours: 8 a.m.-10 p.m. daily more info: 747-4697 each order. and these are good, quite good, flecked with salt and pepper, or slathered in mustard or even horseradish sour cream. presiding on 8-inch white or wheat sub rolls, the simple menu is as unfussy as it gets. among the choices: pastrami and cheese, roast beef and cheddar, ham and cheese, american sub (ham, turkey, roast beef and american cheese), turkey and provolone, and horseradish roast beef. The price is also a tremendously comfortable $4.75 per sandwich.

Horseradish roast beef sandwich from quisqueya. These are quality builds, as well, with the meats and extras spilling from the rolls, all tidily wrapped in aluminum foil. Breakfast brings much of the same: combo bologna, bacon, chicken or spiced ham and egg sandwiches, plus cheese, and all for a reasonable price, as they run about $2.50 to $3.25. also remember, there’s no seating, and Quisqueya takes only cash. no credit cards are accepted. But with prices this inexpensive and sandwiches this fine, it should be easy to scrounge up the loot.

served with the same rice and beans and a side of tortillas to scoop every bit onto your fork. guisado de puerco ($12) braises chunks of pork in a green tomatillo sauce. The pork was tender but its low and slow cooking process stripped it of any flavor and sapped the astringent tomatillos of puckerpower. tampiquena ($12), or skirt steak, is served with a

Mole, the curry of Mexico, tops chicken ($12); skirt

The soups are meals in themselves and warrant their own review visit. all intrigue: the classic tortilla soup ($9) with avocado, tortilla and chihuahua cheese; menudo ($9.50) with tripe and cilantro and onion; and caldo de res ($9.50), more stew than soup and Sunday supper in many parts of Mexico. combo i and combo ii are still on the menu, and both are priced at $11. our server allowed the substitution of one variety of enchilada for another. tacos are available a la carte. add frijoles ($4) and you have dinner for $7. dessert was limited to a simple flan. The menu could benefit from something sweet to put your taste buds to bed after the complex flavors of your meal. For many, it seemed the mar-

garitas were performing that function. Freshness prevailed at Santi’s when it came to lettuce, tomatoes, onions and salsa. cumin was used with restraint, and the lively notes of chile permeated many dishes. The price/value equation here is high, and most dishes were only a dollar more since a review of Santi’s in 2009. taste-wise, the dishes in Summerville were brighter with tartness and depth playing flavoring roles. The kitchen in Mount pleasant is not producing the same piquant fare. The dinner rush also is a challenge, as they seem to have no system in place to deal with the crowds, and the bar area is not deep enough to contain the waiting guests. all easy to remedy on the road to buen provecho (bon appetit)!

charlie mars

charlie Mars isn’t a loud man. The Mississippi-born crooner behind such hits as “Listen to the darkside,” “how i roll” and “Meet Me By the Backdoor” is that kind of quiet and humble cool type who knows it rather than speaks it. But this isn’t a guy with an equally quiet life. Let us not forget the time Mars won $16,000 shortly before passing out at a Biloxi blackjack table, a night’s earnings that afforded him the time to write much of his 2004 breakthrough self-titled album. Just as surprising to Mars as that casino winning streak was the reaction the industry and audience had to the album. in truth, Mars was feeling the walls closing in before the chips began mounting up. he was out of money, out of a manager, agent, band and, seemingly, out of luck. he hadn’t released an album in nearly five years, and the ones he had were small indie releases that fell short of the mark. he was road-weary and discouragement was beginning to become a burden too heavy to carry any longer. That blacked-out gamble, however, offered the singersongwriter a much-needed rest. it gave Mars time to write without the day-today pressures and frustrations that financial struggle creates. That calm comes through in Mars’ songs. There’s a composed subtlety to his voice, but also a desperation and yearning that evades pathetic whimpering in favor of honest emotion at the hands of just a sensitive man. as such, a propelling predilection for him grows as he quietly, slowly, almost apprehensively, shapes those subtleties into powerful moments of revelation and distinction. charlie Mars will celebrate the release of his latest album, “Blackberry Light,” tonight with a performance at The

as a kid in the ’70s, i never really got kiSS. at the time, they were one of the hottest groups in rock ’n’ roll for two reasons: the band’s music and the fact that the members concealed their identities behind stage makeup. it took seeing the original lineup of kiSS on the band’s hugely successful 1996 reunion tour to fully appreciate what i had missed in my youth. Founding members gene Simmons and paul Stanley still front the band, with eric

Singer and tommy Thayer filling the spots originated by peter criss and ace Frehley. while the band had some lean years in the ’80s and early ’90s after unmasking, it seems that putting the makeup back on has reignited the band’s career. on “Monster,” the latest studio effort by kiSS, Stanley and Simmons wisely have decided not to mess with the formula that has worked for them all these years. Much like its predecessor, 2009’s “Sonic Boom,” “Monster” features simple, straightforward hard rock tunes with

Few artists ever come close to achieving the sort of career success that Van Morrison has seen. The past five decades have been littered with hits by the northern irish singer, including “gloria,” “Moondance,” “into the Mystic” and “wild night.” The past decade or so has seen a resurgence in the quality of Morrison’s recorded material, and his latest album is no exception. “Born to Sing: no plan B” has a jazzier feel than on past releases, and why not

since it’s on the legendary jazz label Blue note. Morrison’s famous celtic Soul sound is intact, but whereas previous releases sounded like they were suited for a concert hall, the songs on “Born to Sing: no plan B” have a feel better-suited for a small, dark jazz club that requires a two-drink minimum. even at the ripe old age of 67, Morrison’s voice sounds as good as ever, and he delivers the goods on standout songs such as “open the door (to your heart),” “close

while most folks know musician Jeff Lynne as the longtime frontman of electric Light orchestra, most might have missed his 1990 solo album, “armchair Theatre.” while the album was packed with brilliant songs by Lynne, it didn’t end up selling very many copies. perhaps it was because the market was saturated at the time with Lynne-produced albums by folks such as tom petty and roy orbison, as well as Lynne’s participation with the supergroup The traveling wilburys. twenty-two years later, Lynne has decided to make another go at a solo album. i admit that with as much as i loved

“armchair Theatre,” i was excited at the prospect. So imagine my initial disappointment to find out that “Long wave” comprises cover songs. Sure, Lynne covered “September Song” and “Stormy weather” on his solo debut, and those covers were quite good, but i was honestly hoping for a similar mix on “Long wave.” no such luck. Lynne does get credit for mixing it up a bit with his cover selections, all of which he said he first heard over long-wave radio as a kid growing up in post-world war ii england. From rodgers & hammerstein’s “if i

titles such as “wall of Sound,” “Shout Mercy” and “all for the Love of rock & roll.” it’s not terribly deep, and it’s loud, but then that’s what kiSS fans want. They don’t want to figure out cryptic lyrics, they want to rock ’n’ roll all night and party every day. “Monster” allows those fans to do just that. key tracks: “hell or hallelujah,” “shout mercy,” “eat your heart out”

ased on Bram Stoker’s famous novel, “dracula,” Jill eathorne Bahr of the charleston Ballet Theatre created her own interpretation of the story for the stage back in 1999, which was well-received with a sold-out, eight-day run in Las Vegas. This year, Bahr’s same “dracula” is back in charleston by popular demand. “images and moments from Bram Stoker’s legendary novel are brought to life in a sensuous and sinister dance, which uncovers our most basic desires and fears,” Bahr said. The theatrical dance performance promises to have impressive set and costume designs. perfectly timed with the halloween season, check out this classic tale at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the charleston Music hall on John Street. tickets are $29$44 with discounts for large groups. call 723-7334 or go to www.charlestonballet.org.

and punk,” Starr explains, adding that Blackberry Smoke did recently collaborate with rich robinson of The Black crowes, a friendship that dates back over a decade. “when we were first forming, there were still a couple of afterhours spots in atlanta bars where you could ... stay up all night and form every dream band that you could think of by daylight.” as a Southern rock musician, Starr laments hollywood portrayals of the region where “it’s all pickup trucks, people spitting tobacco and nicolas cage with a horrible Southern accent.” Starr sees the Lowcountry as a perfect spot to showcase the best in Southern music, saying, “it’s cities like charleston that make the South so amazing.”

ground from page e20 with Mayer as a bandmate ended by the time they were 20. “it’s one of those things that never really got to see its distance.” Fifteen years later, the relationship has come full circle, with Mayer now sharing a much larger stage with his successful former bandmate. over the course of the weekend, they’ll be joined at Blackbaud Stadium by The avett Brothers, The wailers, Michael Franti & Spearhead, grace potter & the nocturnals, Jerry douglas, JJ grey & Mofro, Los Lonely Boys and the charlie daniels Band. each night will culminate with a long set from the Zac Brown Band, calling upon many of their friends to punctuate the group’s blend of hits and varied covers. “we’ve completely retooled and changed it since the last time we were there,” cook said, emphasizing the band’s diverse influences in building the festival lineup. although it’s most often regarded as a country band, garnering dozens of award nominations from the various country music associations, as well as the 2010 grammy for Best new artist, the Zac Brown Band is just as likely to cover pink Floyd or widespread panic as it is george Jones. on the 2012 studio release “uncaged,” Brown even shares songwriting credits with pop rocker Jason Mraz and Mac Mcanally of Jimmy Buffett’s coral reefer Band. Songwriter amos Lee and new orleans’ star trombone Shorty make appearances on the disc. “Fortunately and unfortunately, we get classified in the country genre, and in that realm, there’s a lot of acts with a stage show going on — some groups even have backup dancers,” cook said. “we’re really not anything like that. we’re a real band, very much like The allman Brothers Band, in that we write our own music and play with our own musicians and instruments on our records. There aren’t too many national acts who do that nowadays. “we’re in this country music thing, but we’re nothing like anyone else in it, so if we have fans who happen to know us by listening to country music radio, we also want to turn them on to something else that’s cool, like bringing out legends like gregg allman or one of the greatest guitarists of our generation in John Mayer.”

Grace Potter & The Nocturnals Brown Band has maintained a doit-yourself streak of self-sufficiency, beginning with the formation of its own record label, home grown, before the release of the 2004 debut, “Far From einstyne.” Brown’s band was recruited largely through friends and connections around the atlanta area, growing organically from regular appearances at The windjammer in the mid-2000s to the headlining act they are today. home grown became Southern ground records in 2011, and many of the artists performing this weekend benefit from their spot on the roster, including The wood Brothers and The wheeler Boys. other acts such as nic cowan, Sonia Leigh and Levi Lowrey are not only performers but share songwriting credits on many of the tracks on “uncaged.” Southern rock band Blackberry Smoke first encountered Brown seven years ago, when both groups landed a spot on Lynyrd Skynyrd’s annual cruise. “There was a lot of mutual respect and admiration, sort of a, ‘we love you guys. Let’s hug,’ feeling right off the bat,” recalls Blackberry Smoke singer-guitarist charlie Starr. “Zac is just a bighearted guy who loves music and loves to do things to help people that he cares about.” after a few “indie label disasters” of its own, Blackberry Smoke found itself dealing with crumbling label representation in the wake of 2009’s “Little piece of dixie.” “Long story short, it ended sadly

with the label’s part owner going to prison. Sometimes the business of music can make it so much more complicated than it should be,” Starr said. “we were dusting ourselves off from the last label implosion and Zac said, ‘hey, man, you guys are free. if you want a home, i’ve got one for you.’ we said, ‘Thank you very much, friend.’ and that was it.” Since joining Southern ground, Blackberry Smoke has built its reputation as a new beacon of the georgia rock sound led by groups like The Black crowes, releasing its latest studio album, “The whippoorwill,” in august. after 12 years of touring, Starr lauds Brown’s willingness to let them make music their own way. “he said, ‘i love what you guys do and i don’t want to change it. we want to grow it, and don’t let me stand in your way,’ ” Starr recalls, adding, “it’s not like we’re going to him asking for a billion dollars to buy a jet.” Brown contributed to the production of “The whippoorwill” although his reactions were so positive to the 17 songs the group recorded that it remained Starr’s task to whittle them down to a dozen. although many of the Southern ground artists hail from georgia, Starr laments that the scene doesn’t possess the solidarity that the Macon/atlanta-based heyday of Southern rock in the ’70s did. “at some point, the music went in all different directions, so that now there’s a lot of hip-hop, r&B

Brown’s plans for the Southern ground Music and Food Festival include moving into multiple markets, but charleston will always have the distinction of hosting the first. That’s thanks in part to the enduring draw of the college of charleston. will ward, a 1993 c of c graduate, went on to represent country singers and hollywood stars, including adam Sandler and dustin hoffman, before forming his company, roar entertainment. ward signed Brown when he was still playing small clubs, helping launch the inaugural Southern ground Festival last year. Brown’s popularity at The windjammer also helped, as did charleston’s growing reputation as a food destination. Billed as a festival of music and food, ticketing options for Southern ground include the opportunity to sit at stage level and enjoy all-you-can-eat-and-drink skybox catering by Brown’s executive chef, rusty hamlin. offerings from local restaurants The grocery and charleston grill are also on the menu. everyone else can choose between a full menu of Southern fare from Brown’s mobile kitchen and caterers including home team BBQ and taco Boy. organizer ward admits that last year’s ticket sales didn’t meet their goals, but he’s optimistic through presales that they’ll exceed expectations in year two. “we’re focusing more on hitting musically in the lineup, and ironically, less on finding acts that we think would help sell tickets,” ward said. “a band like train, last year, was well-received, but i’m not sure that it was the same fit as some of the acts we have on this year. The goal is to build this

the lineup zac brown band with special guest performances by gregg allman and John mayer with more to be announced.

From The avett Brothers to charlie daniels, the lineup is designed to please every palate, said cook. “it’s not just throwing a block of cheese and a hunk of meat in the pot. it’s carefully crafted,” he said. “it’s like the idea of a melting pot, but we handpick all the right ingredients.”

When the Open teams of England and Turkey met in the 2008 European Championships, Yalcin Atabey of Turkey had done well to reach five clubs as South. Those declarers who ended in three no-trump,whether North or South, were doomed to fail, as both East and West had natural red-suit leads. In opposition were England’s Hackett twins, Justin and Jason, and Justin led a heart against the club game. At first glance, there appear to be three losers — one in each of the red suits plus the spade ace. But with those excellent spade intermediates in dummy, the contract looks safe. Declarer will win the heart lead, enter dummy in trumps, and lead a spade to the king. West wins with the ace and

leads a heart to East’s king. East does best to return a diamond. However, a spade to the queen and a spade ruff set up the suit. It only remains to finish drawing trump and discard two diamonds from hand on dummy’s spades. Declarer began as prophesied. At trick three, Atabey led a spade to the king, which held, Justin ducking impassively. South continued with a spade to the 10. In with the jack, Jason returned a diamond, taken by dummy’s ace. Atabey drew the remaining trumps, then confidently led the spade queen, on which he discarded a diamond, believing that East held the ace. But it was Westwhoproducedthiscard,and his diamond return saw the game drift two down.

architecture abounds in area By reBekah BradFord Special to The Post and Courier

o

ne of the big events in charleston this time of year is the annual Fall tour of homes and gardens. put on by The preservation Society of charleston, it offers visitors a glimpse into many of the private historic homes and gardens downtown. in honor of the tour, we’re quizzing this week’s contestants on local architecture. current head2head champ Jane gordon is being challenged by tim nichols, who is retired. File/staFF

Middleton Place is one of the numerous spots around the Charleston area that has notable architecture.

Questions

1. middleton Place is an example of what style of architecture? 2. what is a covered porch traditionally known as in charleston? 3. there are approximately how many historic buildings in the charleston area: 800, 1,800 or 2,800? 4. two of these three houses are in the Federal style, name one: the Joseph manigault house, the aiken-rhett house or drayton hall. 5. seen on the outside walls of buildings, these plates are often in the shape of stars, circles or crosses and are known as what? 6. Found almost exclusively on the peninsula, these buildings are one room wide with double covered porches and sit with the narrow part facing the street. 7. what is the unusual architectural feature of the staircase in the nathaniel russell house? 8. on what downtown street would a visitor find the famed wrought iron “sword gates”? 9. after the publication of this book, 58 church st. became the most visited private garden in america. 10. where are the oldest public gardens in america located?

Jane’s answers

1. neo classical 2. veranda 3. 1,800 4. aiken-rhett 5. earthquake bolts 6. is it a charleston single? 7. it’s the one that seems to just hang there. 8. church 9. something about mrs. whaley’s gardens. 10. magnolia Plantation

conclusion this week head2head has a new trivia champ. despite his initial skepticism, tim didn’t do too badly with the architecture theme and will return next week to defend his title. the Fall tour of homes and gardens continues until oct. 28. For information, go to www.preservation society.org.

tim’s answers

1. i’ll say georgian. 2. a piazza. 3. 2,800 4. aiken-rhett house 5. earthquake bolts 6. a charleston single. 7. doesn’t appear to have any support. 8. this will have to be a guess — broad street? 9. and this one i don’t know. 10. magnolia Plantation.

correct answers 1. georgian 2. Piazza 3. 2,800 4. the Joseph manigault house and the aiken-rhett house 5. earthquake bolts 6. charleston single

7. it’s free-flying, meaning it doesn’t have any visible supports 8. legare street 9. “mrs. whaley and her charleston garden” 10. magnolia Plantation

marine’s decision hints at serious issue

d

ear aBBy: This is in response to “worried Mom in gainesville, Fla.,” whose son was not allowed to re-enlist in the Marine corps. i hate to say this, but that young man knew darned well when he got those tattoos he would not be able to re-enlist. The u.S. navy (which the Marine corps “technically” falls under) passed the new enlistment tattoo policy in January 2003 with the Marine corps adding its policy in april 2007. — SpouSe oF retired naVy cpo DEAR SPOUSE: You are correct. Many readers wrote to say the Navy had passed new tattoo policies in 2003 and the Marine Corps followed suit in 2007. If reenlisting is so important to “Worried Mom’s” son, all he needs to do is have his tattoos removed. Read on: dear aBBy: The issue isn’t time served or his honorable discharge. The Marine times recently published an article on Marine policy regarding tattoos. The corps seeks to discourage full-sleeve tattoos and tattoos above the neck. They are regarded as unprofessional in appearance and may incorporate gang-related symbols. “worried Mom’s” son likely knew the guidelines. The mother said her son is bored and lacks focus in college. This suggests he may have ptSd. his desire to enlist in the French Foreign Legion may have short-term gains, but it may also compound mental health problems. — Marc in South orange, n.J. dear aBBy: The nonsense about joining the French Foreign Legion shows that the young man lacks maturity. he chose to get the tattoos; he can either have laser removal or live with his decision. he wants to be a Marine and is crying about a regulation he does not like? That is definitely not Marine quality! it appears he needs a serious dose of maturity. — chriS in independence, Mo.

dear abby dear aBBy: The French Foreign Legion is a rational choice for this bored veteran of two tours in iraq. after three five-year enlistments, he will be eligible to retire. plus, the legion will prepare him for a civilian occupation. he will be able to live in France after only one enlistment, which gives him the benefits of the French medical system. Many employers in europe prefer to hire exlegionnaires. The legion also has a history of teaching its recruits how to speak enough French to get along. how do i know this? My brother joined the FFL at 35. wish i had, too. — charLeS in Fort worth, teXaS dear aBBy: currently, the australian forces are expanding and are unable to fill their ranks with their own citizens, so they are recruiting members from other nations. The mission of the australian military is similar to the u.S. military. as a member of the australian forces, he would be defending the same ideals as the u.S. military. i retired from the navy last year and seriously considered doing this, too. — retired naVy, redMond, ore. dear aBBy: This young man, like our son, is clearly experiencing the effects of ptSd. The impact of this disorder on our servicemen affects their ability to readjust to civilian life and move forward with positive life planning. The signs of ptSd can be subtle, but they are very real. The man in that letter needs professional help. his injuries, while not physically obvious, require attention. — concerned parentS write dear abby at www. dearabby.com.
