Substituting stored rainwater for regular tap water to irrigate can help reduce outdoor water use, which can have far reaching environmental benefits. Water conservation reduces water demand, which allows rivers and streams to maintain adequate water levels and flow. This helps to sustain healthy aquatic ecosystems. Conservation also reduces the need to develop new water treatment and new water storage - a process that often causes unfavorable environmental repercussions. Additionally, conservation reduces the need to overdraw from groundwater resources, which can be vulnerable to depletion and contamination. Indirectly, saving water also helps to reduce energy consumption.

Second to motor vehicle accidents, burn injuries top the list of causes of accidental deaths in the United States. 2.4 million burn injuries are reported each year. Knowing that over 50% of all of burn injuries are preventable, the staff at Trident Burn Clinic would like to share some facts related to fire prevention and tips to help keep families free from burn injury:
Ø The majority of fires that kill or injure children are residential fires
Ø Fires kill about 500 children ages 14 and under each year
Ø The leading cause of home fires and related injuries is home cooking equipment – however, most fire-related deaths are from residential fires ignited by smoking materials such as cigarettes
Ø Thermal injuries can be caused by products like hair curlers, curling irons, room heaters, ovens and stoves, irons, gasoline and fireworks
Ø Residential fires and deaths occur more frequently during cold-weather months when portable or space heating equipment is utilized
How Can You Keep Your Family Safe?
Ø Keep space heaters away from blankets/curtains/stuffed animals and small hands
Ø Unplug electrical appliances while not in use
Ø Discard appliances with faulty electrical cords
Ø Protect your family and home with smoke alarms!
Ø Be sure to change the batteries in your home's smoke detector every year
Ø And most importantly HAVE A PLAN! There is a high level of chaos during a fire, it is important to review your plan of escape with your family before an event occurs, being sure to have an agreed upon meeting place for everyone to report to.
For more information or to learn how you can schedule an appointment to be seen at the Trident Outpatient Burn Clinic please call 1-877-863-9595.

Before he found his true calling, Sawyer Bridges was the guy who blocked the plate in the spring and ran the ball in the fall.
The son of a former Summerville High School athlete turned Green Wave coach, Bridges grew up surrounded by athletics.
The rising junior says he has played baseball since he was 4. He played Dixie Youth Baseball until he was 11 and then became active with travel ball organizations. As a seventh-grader he joined the Green Wave JV team and the next year he made the SHS varsity team.
Ive always had a pretty good arm but I did a lot of catching when I was younger, Bridges said. My eighth-grade year I did some pitching on the side but everyone thought of me as a catcher. Then one game Wando was beating us pretty bad so they put me in and I just threw the crap out of the ball. I cant remember exactly how many strikeouts I had or anything but I did really good.
That summer he pitched some for his Diamond Devils travel ball team. One of his pitches was clocked at 85-mph and afterwards his dad told him he didnt need to catch anymore. His fastest clocked pitch this year was 93 mph.
This summer, Bridges played for the EvoShield Canes travel organization that draws players from across the country. He helped the Canes 17U team earn a national championship.
Thats one of the coolest things Ive ever been a part of, he said. I mean there were 380 teams in the country who wanted that title so playing for it was fun.
He also helped his team place second in a prestigious tournament in Arizona and third in a tournament in Florida.
His time on the hill for the Green Wave in the spring was limited due to an injury, but he finished the high school season with a 6-1 pitching record.
Bridges has verbally committed to the Clemson University baseball team, which made him an offer his freshman year.
Its mostly their coaches that won me over, but I also like their facilities, he said. Overall, I just love their program.
He says he will probably major in a field such as sports marketing or sports management.
Bridges has also drawn a lot of interest and had a lot of success as a football player. He is entering his third season as the quarterback for the Green Wave varsity team.
Being a quarterback for this school is always fun but I did feel some pressure my freshman year, he said. It wasnt overwhelming or anything because I knew what to expect and the older guys helped me out. I already knew that older crowd and I think that helped especially since I was a bit undersized.
However, Bridges didnt start out as a QB.
His introduction to organized football came through the Sertoma Youth Football League and after only a year in the youngest age division he gave up football, temporarily.
I was fast so they put me at halfback but I wanted to play quarterback so I didnt play the next year, he said.
Eventually he gave the sport another try and the second time around coaches let him play the QB position. He remained a quarterback and upon reaching middle school he joined the DuBose Middle School team and helped it to a championship. As an eighth-grader he played for the Green Wave B-team.
Looking back, he is glad he gave football another shot.
I enjoy everything about the sport, he said. Football players have a unique mindset and I enjoy being around that. They want to hit and get down and nasty which is something you dont really have with baseball.
Of course, baseball and football players do share some traits. Perhaps Bridges brings a football mentality to the baseball diamond that helps him on the mound and a pitchers instincts to the pocket that helps him on the gridiron.
When I pitch I feel like Im in control of the game and I like that, he said. Its what I like about being a quarterback too. I like the pressure of, if I do good, the team does good.
He has lofty goals for this football season.
Everyone on this team wants to win state, he said. We feel like we were so close last year and we have the talent this year. Im putting a lot of focus on getting the ball out of my hands and throwing better deep balls. Johnston (McCurry) helped me out with a lot of my deep balls last year so now that he is gone its more important for me to be accurate on big throws.
The QB has shaved a couple of seconds off his 40-yard dash time since last season and he is hoping that will pay off this fall.
When he isnt traveling around the country for baseball tournaments, studying the playbook or at practice, Bridges likes to fish.

South Sea White Pearls are among the most sought-after organic gemstones Maui Divers Jewelry offers in a variety of unique designs. Creamy white in color, these pearls from the South Seas display a natural iridescence on its lustrous surface that best resembles reflections of moonlit seas on warm tropical nights.
Symbolizing loyalty, purity and honesty, South Sea White Pearls have long been a favorite of royalty, with queens and princesses throughout history stringing these exotic gems to wear in jeweled strands around the neck or to adorn dresses and gowns for a unique and bedazzled fashion statement.
This pearl variety is most prized for its large size, which normally starts at 9mm and can go as large as 19mm. The largest South Sea White Pearl ever found measured 24mm. Produced by saltwater mollusks known as silver-lipped oysters, South Sea White Pearls can take up to 2 years to cultivate. They are harvested from the depths of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, around Northern Australia and the Philippines, as well as Myanmar and Indonesia.
These highly lustrous pearls make a beautiful marriage with white diamonds and other gemstones, framed in all colors of gold.
No jewelry collection is complete without at least one piece featuring South Sea White Pearls. They make the perfect memorable gift for any occasion and no matter what style is selected, it is destined to become an heirloom to hand down from one generation to the next.

Joan Benson-Cacchione: Down in the 'Downton' dumps
All right, confess: You miss it.
"Downton Abbey" that is, the shocking season finale of which aired four weeks ago tonight. The episode in which X died, and, crikey! but you never saw that coming.
Unless you'd heard back at the start of the season -- in your zeal to gobble up any news of this PBS TV series we all crave -- that X was keen to move on in his career and wanted out of his "Downton" contract.
Oh, what's this? Crazy fan talk?
This isn't me. I dislike getting so hooked on a show.
But I am. Four weeks gone, and I miss this one terribly.
I know I'm not alone. The season three finale was seen by more than 8 million viewers. I've read that "Downton Abbey," with its peek into the secrets of an upper crust household in early 20th century England, has become the most-watched PBS series since "The Civil War." The "Downton" effect is so ubiquitous that even the venerable Philadelphia Flower Show this year adopted a British theme to -- "Mark your shed-yules!" -- trade on its popularity.
English roses aside, some of us are now withering on the offseason vine from "Downton" withdrawal. I, for one, miss the curt and clever rejoinders. What I wouldn't give to hear Lord Grantham again growl the phrase "as thick as thieves" as his man- servant helps him into his jacket.
Or to hear the Dowager Countess describe the endless tasks associated with parenthood as "the on and on-ness of it!"
Or to hear O'Brien bark, "Back in the knife box, Miss Sharp!" to housemaid Anna, who's just made a pointed remark.
To assuage my melancholy, I could queue up past seasons' episodes. I could visit www.pbs.org/downton and take a quiz: "How well do you know your quotes?" or relish there a collection of "zingers" delivered smartly by the Countess.
I, along with my spouse -- who joined me in front of the telly on those many Sunday nights -- can even take a quiz to see which "Downton Abbey" couple we are.
Or we can visit other websites, such as Fodor's, which recently offered tips on "how to travel like you own Downton Abbey."
But such pastimes are sure to pale. Then perhaps I'll find solace in our humdrum middlecrust household tasks on these "Downton"-empty Sunday nights, merely re-imagining scenes from my own life in a Yorkshire-village fashion.
Call it -- Downscale Abbey:
"Darling, have you fetched the garbage?"
"What shall we do with these ghastly recyclables?"
"Have you disposed of that horrid cardboard box properly?"
"Oh, you're such a curmudgeon."

quote: Just because a few of the scientists on the climate change side are dishonest does not mean they all are. And it's not like the anti-climate-change scientists are any more honest.
quote: At least I'm not so stupid as to fall for that "CO2 percentage = amount" argument that the less intelligent climate change deniers fall for :-))
quote: This is not a valid argument. The planet sure was "different", however how C02 interacts with the atmosphere to "cause warming" sure wasn't different.
quote: Oh and the pressure was "probably" lower? That's funny because I've read papers that suggested it was "probably" higher. But, of course, your side is right on that too. Because..uhh, you said so.
quote: Case in point. It doesn't matter if a "few" scientists were dishonest. The point is the data they fabricated, the numbers they massaged, was the very blueprint for the Man Made Global Warming theory that nearly EVERY climatologist based his opinion on.
quote: But true knowledge? You're not showing it at all because you aren't able to form your own opinions. You aren't applying critical thinking, you're arbitrarily deciding something and backing it up with bias. Regurgitation isn't knowledge.
quote: Apparently you're "too stupid" to actually notice that as C02 increases, we're not actually warming. The icecaps aren't melting and flooding the oceans. Etc etc etc.
quote: Don't blame me for mistakes others have made.
quote: You do know that AMOUNT and PERCENTAGE are completely different things now yea?
quote: That's not true and you know it.
quote: The majority of Climate Scientists agree that global warming and climate change is real. Only a few disagree, and most of those that disagree are not climate scientists.
quote: Umm. the earth is warming, the highest temperatures on record were in the last decade. Sorry there's not the perfectly linear increase that you would apparently require.
quote: Excuse me? We're coming out of a 15 year period where when the temps were supposed to be rising due to increased C02 (yes amount and percentage, asshole), we saw no global temperature rise. It's not us that claimed we would see linear increases, again, YOUR SIDE insisted that would be the trend!
quote: Actually, from 98-08 we haven't seen the temperature going up at its previous rate.
quote: Was the Earth the center of the Universe because a then "majority" of scientists agreed it was?
quote: again, YOUR SIDE insisted that would be the trend!
quote: quote: You do know that AMOUNT and PERCENTAGE are completely different things now yea? Why do you keep harping on this? Yes I know that.
quote: You do know that AMOUNT and PERCENTAGE are completely different things now yea?
quote: First off there is no majority, that's a crock
quote: Secondly science isn't a democratic process, or a popularity contest.
quote: Just because CO2 didn't start the problem does not mean that it does not occur.

The Boston bombing suspect killed early Friday apparently was NO STRANGER to the FBI:
The mother of both Boston bombing suspects claimed today that the men drew the attention of law enforcement long before the bombings. Zubeidat Tsarnaeva told Russia Today this morning that her sons told her the FBI was monitoring them for three to five years, ever since Tamerlan had grown more interested in Islam. She also said the bureau had warned her about her son's use of extremist websites.
On Friday afternoon, the FBI admitted they had in fact interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev [above] two years ago ...

Down three starters in their home opener Friday, the Palmetto Academy Eagles couldn't outlast the Northwood Academy Chargers in a 60-49 loss.
To counter Northwood's athleticism, Palmetto Christian (1-3) stayed in a 2-3 zone that closed off the Chargers' penetration and forced them to shoot over the top. While the Chargers struggled to find their offense early, the Eagles capitalized off a 10-point first quarter by Chris DeMarco to take a 15-11 lead. DeMarco finished with a team-high 19 points go to go with six rebounds and three steals.
"We really focused on getting back, packing it in and forcing them to make their shots," Palmetto Christian head coach Brian Stanley said. "We handled their pressure pretty well in the first quarter and got some easy buckets off that."
Northwood turned up its pressure in the second quarter. The Chargers' full-court trap frustrated the Eagles guards in the backcourt, leading to turnovers and easy baskets. Tayvaughn Major scored 11 of his game-high 25 points in the second quarter to help erase the Eagles' advantage and build an 11-point Chargers lead heading into halftime.
The Chargers carried the momentum into the second half, opening with a 5-0 run to drop the Eagles into a hole they wouldn't overcome. Palmetto Christian twice came within 11 points but couldn't get the lead down to single digits. With starting point guard J.T. Waters away at the North-South all-star football weekend, the Eagles struggled to break the Chargers' pressure throughout the third and fourth quarters, instead washing away promising scoring spurts with turnovers.
"I really though my point guard Isaiah (McGrew) played a heck of game but J.T. is a guy that, because of his quarterback mentality, he's so hard for a defense to press and we missed some of that tonight," Stanley said. "We all made mistakes. We started picking up our dribble, not being decisive, running away from the ball, and got away from what we were doing. They really cranked up their intensity and I thought they did a good job in their press and finishing and taking it to us so you have to credit them."
Ben German grabbed 13 rebounds and scored 10 points for the Eagles, while Mitch Hogan scored 10 with nine rebounds, six assists and four steals.
For Northwood, Douglas Dwight scored 15 to complement Major's big night.
"I was proud of the way our guys kept fighting and I think we grew as a team tonight," Stanley said. "It'll be nice to get some of our guys back because now we have five guys that played a large portion of a game. We have a solid eight going into the rest of our schedule."
Palmetto Christian hosts Faith Christian Academy Monday at 7:30 p.m.
PCA girls fall
Wake Forest signee Amber Campbell scored a game-high 28 points to lead Northwood past the Palmetto Christian Lady Eagles 79-26 in the night's opener.
Campbell scored 13 in the first quarter to help the propel Northwood to a 29-5 lead by the end of the first quarter.
Palmetto Christian (1-3) struggled to matchup with Northwood's size and athleticism most of the night. Northwood's defense constantly came away with steals that turned into quick baskets with outlet passes to guards streaking down the court.
Already leading 50-14 at halftime, Northwood won the third quarter 17-8 to put the game away.
Lizzie Wilson led Palmetto Christian with 11 points, Annie Pascutti turned in seven, and Katie Wilson, Elizabeth Goolsby and Rachel Wilson each added two.
Palmetto Christian and Faith Christian tip off Monday at 6 p.m.

The March of Dimes will kick off their 2014 March for Babies fundraising campaign in Charleston on Jan. 29 at 7:30AM a.m. to noon and 5:30 p.m. at East Cooper Medical Center.
Individuals, families and businesses throughout the Charleston area are invited to attend and start raising funds for March for Babies, which will be held on April 26 at Cannon Park.
During the kick off, participants will have the opportunity to meet the 2014 Ambassador Family, pick up fundraising materials, and learn more about the 2014 campaign. Top fundraisers from 2013 will also be recognized. To register for the Kick off, contact Meredith Repik or Mary Whiteside at 843-571-1776 or by email at email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com.
March for Babies raises funds for vital research to help prevent premature birth and birth defects. Funds raised also support community programs that help moms have full-term pregnancies. South Carolina continues to have one of the highest premature birth rates in the country, and the March of Dimes urges everyone to join the fight for stronger, healthier babies.
In Charleston, Arien Rannigan and her family were touched by the March of Dimes in the loss of their son who would possibly be here today if newborn screening included a screening for SCID, but currently in South Carolina we do not screen for this and he lost his fight. Rannigan and her family hope that by serving as Ambassador for the March of Dimes this year they can educate more people about SCID and the importance of Newborn Screening.
March for Babies Chairman, Jason Alexander, CEO, East Cooper Medical Center, says, For more than 75 years the March of Dimes has been touching the lives of babies and families. We invite our community to join March for Babies and raise money to help more families know the joy of a healthy baby.
In Charleston, March for Babies is sponsored by East Cooper Medical Center, Select Health of South Carolina, MUSC, Trident Health System, Robert BOSCH, Roper St. Francis Healthcare, Publix Supermarkets, Heritage Trust Federal Credit Union, Santee Cooper, Strand Media Group and Y102.5
Each year, the South Carolina Chapter of the March of Dimes invests in mission initiatives statewide, including research grants and local community services. Through these program services, the March of Dimes continues working to prevent birth defects and infant death, reduce South Carolinas premature birth rate, increase access to prenatal care and educate healthcare providers and women about having healthy babies.
For more than 75 years, moms and babies have benefited from March of Dimes research, education, vaccines, and breakthroughs. Find out how you can help raise funds to prevent premature birth and birth defects by walking in March for Babies at marchforbabies.org. For the latest resources and information, visit marchofdimes.com/southcarolina. Find us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.
The 2014 March for Babies is sponsored nationally by the March of Dimes number one corporate supporter Kmart, Macys, Famous Footwear, Cigna, Sanofi Pasteur, Mission Pharmacal, and United Airlines.

He comes from a family of doctors. "Seeing the impact my grandfather and father had on improving patients' quality of life is what drew me to medicine in the first place," says Dr. Daniel A. Wartinbee. Like his dad, Dr. Wartinbee pursued orthopedics. He also received advanced training in hand and upper extremity surgery from Duke University. He spent his summers in the Lowcountry and during those times met his wife, who is from Charleston. They are happy to return to the Charleston area, where Dr. Wartinbee is joining the team at South Carolina Sports Medicine and Orthopedic Center. While he cares for a variety of orthopedic issues, his specialty is treating problems from the fingertip through the elbow. The most common issues he treats include carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger fingers and upper extremity fractures. He remembers his struggle as a high school football linebacker when he was sidelined with an injured knee during his junior year and had to go through surgery and extensive rehab. He returned before the end of the season and also played during his senior year as team captain. "You get a whole different perspective when you are the patient."

Tuesday, January 14, 2014
The Moultrie News has reached a great moment in its history of serving the East Cooper area.
This year marks our 50th year.
This is a milestone our readers, our staff and the entire community will never forget.
The Moultrie News is special to so many, including myself.
It has been the lifeblood of our small little area of the Lowcountry, pumping information out as quickly as it can be obtained.
We've covered hundreds of elections, thousands of social events, many athletics victories and some losses too. Our reporters have cried with the community as we covered tragedies and deaths. We've rejoiced with our readers when babies have been born or newlyweds make their big announcements.
We've given parents countless copies of extra papers so they can share their child's accomplishments with loved ones.
We've met with mayors and town officials. Sat through arduous town planning and budget meetings so you don't have to.
Our sales team have helped thousands of small business owners grow and spend their advertising dollars wisely.
And the list goes on. For the last 50 years the employees of the Moultrie News have given readers what they want, how they want it and done so with grace, dignity and honor.
The position of editor is a special title to me. At the young age of 23, fresh out of college, Publisher Charlie Diggle and Editor Chuck Diggle gave me a chance as a part time reporter. A copy of that resume I handed them during that first interview still exists. The familiar scrawl of Charlie Diggle is off to the margins where he made notes about my family, my upbringing and my education.
I was born in Mount Pleasant and raised here. I grew up reading the Moultrie News. I was even mentioned in it a few times (not to include the Police Blotter).
I can remember screaming for joy when he called that day to offer me the job. I didn't even negotiate the measly salary I was offered. I was simply honored to work among journalism professionals, in my hometown, for my hometown paper. Little did I know the Diggle's would not only be my employers but would soon become my second family.
I knew I was walking in the footsteps of giants. Many seasoned reporters came before me. And while at the time I thought of the position as a job, looking back it was truly an educational experience for me. Sure I did the busy work of retyping press releases and trying my hand at covering municipal news. (This was long before email was common place). But where I made my mark was in connecting personally with my community.
I now have met and befriended thousands of people I would have never known otherwise.
I wore my reporter's badge proudly. I was no longer the blonde headed Wando High School cheerleader. I was now a respected member of East Cooper. I am still awe struck that I was thought of as an adult back then.
And as the years progressed, I had the privilege of working under Editor Bill Walker, and Editor Ann Mitchell. The learning experience went beyond critiques in writing. It was a lesson in relationships, professional etiquette, and journalistic values and principals. It was about building trust with our readers and creating relationships.
It was about emphasizing that The Moultrie News belonged to the community.
For over ten years I have worked under publisher Vickey Boyd, a true mentor and friend. She named me editor several years ago. I am smart enough to know that it had more to do with my loyalty for our wonderful little paper than my qualifications. But she also trusted in me and believed in me to not only do the work of the paper, but to positively represent it as a whole.
And in that same vein, The Moultrie News has become a part of me and I a part of it.
I will fiercely defend our role in this community and work tirelessly to ensure we're serving the purpose of pleasing our readers.
We're a small staff at The Moultrie News. But as the industry has grown and changed, we've kept up, becoming a weekly print product and a daily online product with a heavy emphasis on social media. We are small but mighty. I hope you'll join me in this yearlong celebration of our 50th anniversary.
The Moultrie News provides a vital service to the community. But without this wonderful community we would not have a service to provide.
There are three very fun events planned throughout the year as well as a look back at the paper's history and sponsorship opportunities. Follow us online at www.moultrie50th.com where you can buy tickets to the Boone Hall concert event or get details on the free family island party or music and food truck rodeo at Awendaw Green.
To kick off our celebration come to Awendaw Green. Join us for a day of family fun featuring:
•Local school bands and choirs
•Face painting, games and contests for kids
•Fun into the evening with a great line up of local musicians
•Food provided by some of Charleston's best food trucks
Boone Hall will play host to Plane Jane and The East Coast Party Band.
Don't miss the 50th Anniversary concert at Boone Hall! With great music from East Cooper's hometown favorites, delicious local food and the beauty of the Boone Hall Plantation, this is a can't miss event celebrating the history, fun, and laid back atmosphere only found east of the Cooper River.
We're excited to be celebrating our commitment to island life with a Community Day in partnership with the Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island at Stith Park. Look for community fund raisers, contests and activities for kids, and of course, great food!
Click on our Show Schedule tab for detailed information on event times, tickets, and specific location information.
We hope our business community will rally behind us and become a sponsor.
This milestone is not just for me or the paper, it is for all of the East Cooper community.
To celebrate with me, call Publisher Vickey Boyd at 958-7482. For event details, call me at 958-7482.
Thank you East Cooper for making us your number one source for all things local. I'll see you at the party!

Wednesday, September 25, 2013
While there are only four candidates running for Isle of Palms City Council – and four seats available – there is a race for Isle of Palms Mayor.
Current mayor Dick Cronin is seeking re-election and mayor pro tem Ryan Buckhannon is also running for the office.
The Moultrie News asked Cronin and Buckhannon questions about their intent with the office, top priorities and leadership abilities.
Question: Why and how did you make your decision?
Dick Cronin: It has been an honor to serve the island as mayor for the past five years – much has been accomplished. In 2000, Mayor Carmen Bunch asked if I was interested in serving on the city's planning commission. Ever since, I have devoted myself to make our community a wonderful place to live.
We have weathered the recession with our finances in good order without having to raise our property tax; we have the lowest mileage in Charleston County. We have been retiring our debt early and now have an improved bond rating. Our work on the critical issues of preserving our beach and welcoming our many visitors is an ongoing and active initiative.
I continue to champion legislation in Columbia, which would allow beach communities to fund our beach preservation needs by charging tourists. This legislation has passed the Senate and is awaiting action in the House next year. I have been successful in getting this year's state budget to include $2 million for beach preservation; it has been $0 in the recent budgets.
Ryan Buckhannon: I have always taught my boys to "leave things better than you found it" and my decision to run one more time for the city council position two years ago was based on that theory. The irresponsible legislation and spending prompted me to stay the course and continue on council for common sense decisions and to keep our residents informed of council's actions.
Residents throughout the island approached me to run for the position, so that I could continue to be a voice of common sense and fiscal responsibility in a leadership position.
Q: How would the city benefit under your leadership?
DC: I am proud that the city's finances have never been better. I believe we can maintain a healthy and vibrant community, while prudently spending our resources to provide city services. While a small city, we have the reputation of doing things right; that takes leadership.
RB: John Quincy Adams once stated: "If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." I feel that while on council, I have inspired people to get involved, do more and speak out – not only those in the community but also within the city, among our employees and the team that we have here.
I'll use my experience as a small business owner to rein in spending and bring forth common sense legislation. We need to judge our leaders by their actions and the result of those actions, not merely by their words. I stand behind my actions and the votes that I have cast while on council.
Q: What should city council's top priorities be moving forward?
DC: Balancing the needs of our residents with those of our many visitors has been and will continue to be an imperative for me as mayor and all members of city council. The safety of our residents and our visitors is of paramount importance.
The traffic congestion on the island this past season is unacceptable. Bumper-to-bumper on the Connector resulted in too many accidents and significant delays for all. We worked hard to convince the county that the outbound lanes through the Rifle Range light needed to be increased. Work will start shortly and be complete by next spring to double the through lanes from Rifle Range to Route 17.
Relative to parking in the residential areas, council has just authorized the development of a plan, which would require a parking pass to be purchased for anyone parking in the residential area. A limited number of passes would be sold annually for the season. As the rights of way are owned by and controlled by the South Carolina Department of Trasportation, the detailed plan must meet their approval. In addition, we are investigating whether all vehicles should be required to park at least four off the road surface; again this requires S.C. DOT approval.
RB: Traffic and parking will continue to be a top priority for the city. While visiting the City of Greenville last year, I was impressed with their parking management solutions, by directing visitors where to go through a system of directional signs and information.
I was able to bring these same ideas back to the city and ultimately move forward on a program with the help from Stantec, a professional design and consulting service specializing in planning, engineering and project management.
While directional signage alone will not solve the problems, we will need a multi-jurisdictional solution. We will need someone who will be willing to work with Charleston County, Mount Pleasant and Sullivan's Island to develop an operational management plan prior to the beach and tourist season.
While we have started to attack some of the city's debt by paying off loans early, we need to operate the city's budget like many people operate their household budget. This year we started just that. I had suggested years ago that we save in advance for large budget items or capital expenses instead of financing them and this is the first year that we have done just that.
Saving for future planned purchases will ultimately save the city money in the form of interest and finance charges. We need more out-of-box thinking and problem solving, and I believe that I am that person.
Q: What are your leadership philosophies? (hands on, hands off, etc.)
DC: As a trained engineer and having managed large companies all over the world, I couple my analytical discipline with the ability to listen intently, develop a plan and then be sure we execute. For example, having listened to our residents, keeping a grocery store on the island was an imperative for me. That's what the Island Center property owner was told when they were looking at other options. When they finally came back with a plan for a grocery store, council and staff worked hard to make it happen.
The city is blessed with an outstanding staff of city employees, who execute providing the services the citizens of our island deserve. They are motivated to serve.
I am pleased to have been personally recognized in June by the Charleston Visitors Bureau with the Barrett Lawrimore Leadership for "Outstanding Leadership in Government." I am particularly honored as Lt. Gov. Glen McConnell was the prior recipient. This past summer, I was elected president of the Association of South Carolina Mayors. With 130 mayors, we work to elevated the needs of South Carolina cities and towns within the state and to learn from each other.
Building solutions based on partnerships with the county and the state that benefit all residents of our city is an important aspect of my leadership. Much progress has been made, but much more can be accomplished.
RB: I think that in order to be a good leader, you need to be hands on. Not so much that you're micro-managing but involved to a point where know how the city operates.
You'll often find me at the fire department or police department talking and interacting with the city employees, getting a feel of what is going on and how things are operating as well as lending a hand when needed. I have ridden along with our police department, helped pull hose for the fire department during a call, and coached and refereed at the recreation department. It gives you a unique perspective on how the city functions and what needs to be done to make it operate better and more efficiently, instead of just sitting in council chambers making decisions without seeing it in action first hand.
I look forward to serving the community in a greater capacity. Having served on every council committee as the chair of the public safety, chair of recreation, chair of public works, vice-chair of personnel, vice-Chair of ways and means and three times as mayor pro tem, I have seen up close and personal how the city operates and will bring that experience along with valuable private sector experience, as a small business owner, to the table.

Morningstar Stock Analyst Reports
At Morningstar, we evaluate stocks as pieces of a business, not as pieces of paper. We think that purchasing shares of superior businesses at discounts to their intrinsic value and allowing them to compound their value over long periods of time is the surest way to create wealth in the stock market.
Report Outline:
We rate stocks 1 through 5 stars, with 5 the best and 1 the worst. Our star rating is based on our analyst's estimate of how much a company's business is worth per share. Our analysts arrive at this "fair value estimate" by forecasting how much excess cash--or "free cash flow"--the firm will generate in the future, and then adjusting the total for timing and risk. Cash generated next year is worth more than cash generated several years down the road, and cash from a stable and consistently profitable business is worth more than cash from a cyclical or unsteady business.
Stocks trading at meaningful discounts to our fair value estimates will receive high star ratings. For high-quality businesses, we require a smaller discount than for mediocre ones, for a simple reason: We have more confidence in our cash-flow forecasts for strong companies, and thus in our value estimates. If a stock's market price is significantly above our fair value estimate, it will receive a low star rating, no matter how wonderful we think the business is. Even the best company is a bad deal if an investor overpays for its shares.
Our fair value estimates don't change very often, but market prices do. So, a stock may gain or lose stars based just on movement in the share price. If we think a stock's fair value is $50, and the shares decline to $40 without much change in the value of the business, the star rating will go up. Our estimate of what the business is worth hasn't changed, but the shares are more attractive as an investment at $40 than they were at $50.
Because we focus on the long-term value of businesses, rather than short-term movements in stock prices, at times we may appear out of step with the overall stock market. When stocks are high, relatively few will receive our highest rating of 5 stars. But when the market tumbles, many more will likely garner 5 stars. Although you might expect to see more 5-star stocks as the market rises, we find assets more attractive when they're cheap.
We calculate our star ratings nightly after the markets close, and issue them the following business day, which is why the rating date on our reports will always be the previous business day. We update the text of our reports as new information becomes available, usually about once or twice per quarter. That is why you'll see two dates on every Morningstar stock report. Of course, we monitor market events and all of our stocks every business day, so our ratings always reflect our analyst's current opinion.
Economic Moat Rating
The Economic Moat Rating is our assessment of a firm's ability to earn returns consistently above its cost of capital in the future, usually by virtue of some competitive advantage. Competition tends to drive down such economic profits, but companies that can earn them for an extended time by creating a competitive advantage possess an Economic Moat. We see these companies as superior investments.
Discounted Cash Flow
This is a method for valuing companies that involves projecting the amount of cash a business will generate in the future, subtracting the amount of cash that the company will need to reinvest in its business, and using the result to calculate the worth of the firm. We use this technique to value nearly all of the companies we cover.
Discount Rate
We use this number to adjust the value of our forecasted cash flows for the risk that they may not materialize. For a profitable company in a steady line of business, we'll use a lower discount rate, also known as "cost of capital," than for a firm in a cyclical business with fierce competition, since there's less risk clouding the firm's future.
Fair Value
This is the output of our discounted cash-flow valuation models, and is our per-share estimate of a company's intrinsic worth. We adjust our fair values for off-balance sheet liabilities or assets that a firm might have—for example, we deduct from a company's fair value if it has issued a lot of stock options or has an under-funded pension plan. Our fair value estimate differs from a "target price" in two ways. First, it's an estimate of what the business is worth, whereas a price target typically reflects what other investors may pay for the stock. Second, it's a long-term estimate, whereas price targets generally focus on the next two to 12 months.
To generate the Morningstar Uncertainty Rating, analysts consider factors such as sales predictability, operating leverage, and financial leverage. Analysts then classify their ability to bound the fair value estimate for the stock into one of several uncertainty levels: Low, Medium, High, Very High, or Extreme. The greater the level of uncertainty, the greater the discount to fair value required before a stock can earn 5 stars, and the greater the premium to fair value before a stock earns a 1-star rating.
Margin of Safety
This is the discount to fair value we would require before recommending a stock. We think it's always prudent to buy stocks for less than they're worth. The margin of safety is like an insurance policy that protects investors from bad news or overly optimistic fair value estimates. We require larger margins of safety for less predictable stocks, and smaller margins of safety for more predictable stocks.
Consider Buying/Consider Selling
The consider buying price is the price at which a stock would be rated 5 stars, and thus the point at which we would consider the stock an extremely attractive purchase. Conversely, consider selling is the price at which a stock would have a 1 star rating, at which point we'd consider the stock overvalued, with low expected returns relative to its risk.
Stewardship Grades
We evaluate the commitment to shareholders demonstrated by each firm's board and management team by assessing transparency, shareholder friendliness, incentives, and ownership. We aim to identify firms that provide investors with insufficient or potentially misleading financial information, seek to limit the power of minority shareholders, allow management to abuse its position, or which have management incentives that are not aligned with the interests of long-term shareholders.
The grades are assigned on an absolute scale--not relative to peers--and can be interpreted as follows: A means "Excellent," B means "Good," C means "Fair," D means "Poor," and F means "Very Poor."
