They say that life can only be understood backward but has to be lived forward.
Growing up, we hear family stories and maybe even visit countries of origin and old family homes, but we don't truly appreciate the history that has shaped our own lives.
One of the gifts that comes with growing older is a deeper understanding and appreciation of our past. With age comes a newfound perspective of our family legacy and the stories of how we came to be.
I'm fortunate that in recent years I've been able to truly embrace the story of my parents, especially my mother, a native of Austria, who came to the United States thanks to a 1940s law that allowed American soldiers to bring their brides to this country.
I never tire of hearing my mother's story and recently recorded it as part of StoryCorps when it stopped in Charleston late last year to capture personal stories and family histories.
My mother, Josefine Wurisch Joyce, was born in Vienna, the only child of two older parents who kept her close to home and under a strict rule. Josefine was barely 16 when she became a telephone operator for a large German Luftwaffe communications center. A series of wartime transfers landed 19-year-old Josefine on the road back to Vienna as she and a group of Austrian soldiers dodged American roadblocks.
As it would turn out, their capture would be her great fortune. An American soldier named John Joyce asked the girl in uniform to identify herself, and Josefine's first thought was, "Boy, does he have beautiful teeth."
For six weeks, the two spent time together in secret, stealing kisses and falling in love. John returned to the United States, and for two years, their only form of communication was letters and one phone call. John signed his letters "my truest love," but Josefine was certain she'd never see him again.
But when the "Sweetheart Law" went into effect, John sent for her. They quickly married in his hometown of Pittsburgh. For 57 years, John and Josefine were married, raising three children, spending retirement years fishing in Florida and living through John's battle with Alzheimer's until his death in 2006.
At 87, my mother (also known as "Piepsi") is still going strong. She volunteers weekly with Pet Helpers and at an adult day-care center and lavishes love on her pets, including a Dachshund named "Schatzie."
My mother left Vienna on March 1, 1947. Each year, she marks that date. It's a reminder of the things we do for love and the sacrifices we are willing to make to be with that one special person.
She was just 20 when she left Vienna, saying goodbye to her parents and her home to travel to a foreign land. It took real courage and a leap of faith that I never truly appreciated until after I'd heard the story many times and read the letters. They have been kept and treasured all these years in the same suitcase she brought from Vienna when she arrived in 1947.
The love story is my mother's legacy, and she says it's the lesson she wants to impart to her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and those yet to come. "When you find true love, you are truly, truly blessed," she says.
Now, I think of my parents' story as a magical tale suited for a book or a movie screen. Theirs was a chance wartime encounter and a relationship that succeeded against all odds. I look back through the lens of history with a full appreciation of the legacy of love.

No. 3: "Superman" (1978)
Sure, the special effects don't quite hold up to today's visuals, but the spirit of "Superman" makes DC's Superman soar high above most films the superhero genre has to offer.
Starring Christopher Reeve in his first major film role, the film covers all of the important bases of the Superman legend: his roots on Krypton (with Marlon Brando as his dad, Jor-El, to boot); his descent to Earth and earnest upbringings with George and Martha Kent; his journey to the Fortress of Solitude and, lastly, his job as a reporter at the Daily Planet in Metropolis where he will realize his full superhero potential.
The casting -- including Margot Kidder as Lois Lane and Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor -- is spot on, but no mold is more flawless than Reeve as the chiseled Man of Steel.
The only downside watching the film is knowing the eventual fate of Reeve the man -- who carried on with a Superman-like dignity from the day he became quadriplegic in 1995 to his death in 2004. Watching "Superman" today is exhilarating as much as it is heartbreaking.
Who's got the X-factor?

Personally Im a zoids guy gundam lost me with gundam G
I like Zoids but in my opinion Gundams a bit cooler.It's kinda easy to see how Gundam can get confusing at times when they have so many series.
I like both, Zoids is cool cause it's robotic animals and Gundam is cool cause it's giant robots with awesome weapons.
zoids is ok but im a big gundam fan i like gundam wing the most out of all the gundam series.
gundam ftw
~Nan Kuru Nai-Sah~
I have stuck with it since the very first Gundam Wing and stuck with it to even the most current series of Gundam 00

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. - Authorities have arrested a total of five 17- and 18-year-old males in connection with a pair of recent armed robbery incidents on Lake Tahoe's North Shore.
According to previous reports, an attempted armed robbery involving a masked suspect occurred the evening of Dec. 29 at Kings Beach Liquors (formerly Spirits of Tahoe) at 8645 North Lake Blvd. in Kings Beach.
On Jan. 2, a masked man fired a revolver during an armed robbery at the Incline Village Chevron gas station at 898 Tahoe Blvd. The man fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of money; no one was hurt in the incident.
According to a Friday afternoon press release from the Placer County Sheriff's Office, a vehicle stolen not long after the Chevron robbery was involved in an accident in Tahoe Vista on Jan. 5.
After an investigation among PCSO, the Washoe County Sheriff's Office and California Highway Patrol, a 17-year-old juvenile was arrested Thursday in Tahoe City on vehicle theft charges.
After further investigation, search warrants led to the arrest of Jorge Miranda-Rivas, 18, of Incline Village, and two 17-year-old males Thursday afternoon in Incline, according to WCSO.
Then on Friday, after more search warrants were served, Jorge Torres, 18, of Kings Beach was arrested on vehicle theft charges. According to PCSO, Torres is also implicated in the Chevron robbery.
The three Incline Village suspects were charged with robbery with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery, grand larceny of an automobile and conspiracy to commit grand larceny of an automobile.
Miranda-Rivas was booked without incident and was being held as of Friday afternoon at the WCSO Detention Facility in Reno on $82,500 bail. The juveniles were booked without incident into the Jan Evans Juvenile Justice Center.

MACON, Ga. – For the second straight week, the Atlantic Sun Conference awarded a Stetson men's tennis player with Player of the Week accolades. Freshman Simon Julin earned his first such honor on Wednesday, as announced by the league.
Julin went 2-0 in singles play, as the Hatters improved to 10-1 overall and 2-0 in Atlantic Sun play this week. The freshman didn't lose a set in singles action, playing at number two and number three against Northern Kentucky and Lipscomb. He improved to 10-0 in singles play on the season with his pair of victories.
Stetson is currently playing against Green Bay, and will continue A-Sun competition this weekend, heading on the road to take on Mercer and Kennesaw State.

Adelaide Kane stars as Zoey Sandin in the horror film "The Purge," opening tonight at Maui Mall Megaplex.
Universal Pictures photo via AP
Billy (Vince Vaughn) and Nick (Owen Wilson) are salesmen whose careers have been torpedoed by the digital world. Trying to prove they are not obsolete, they defy the odds by talking their way into a coveted internship at Google, along with a battalion of brilliant college students. But, gaining entrance to this utopia is only half the battle. Now they must compete with a group of the nation's most elite, tech-savvy geniuses to prove that necessity really is the mother of re-invention.
"The Purge" R, 1:25. Horror, sci-fi, thriller. Maui Mall Megaplex.
In an America wracked by crime and overcrowded prisons, the government has sanctioned an annual 12-hour period in which any and all criminal activity-including murder-becomes legal. The police can't be called. Hospitals suspend help. It's one night when the citizenry regulates itself without thought of punishment. On this night plagued by violence and an epidemic of crime, one family wrestles with the decision of who they will become when a stranger comes knocking. When an intruder breaks into James Sandin's (Ethan Hawke) gated community during the yearly lockdown, he begins a sequence of events that threatens to tear a family apart. Now, it is up to James, his wife, Mary (Lena Headey), and their kids to make it through the night without turning into the monsters from whom they hide. James DeMonaco directs.

Just recently, Ben Sherwood, the President of Disney-ABC Television Group broke the hearts of Star Wars fans by saying that there were no plans to get a live-action Star Wars series off the ground. However, he did confirm that there was development at Lucasfilm Animation at Disney XD regarding the next animated series set in a galaxy far, far away. Now some shuffling behind the scenes further confirms that some new Lucasfilm Animation projects are on the way, and with that also comes big changes at Star Wars Rebels.

Milk futures reach lofty levels
Milk futures reach lofty levels
Class III futures really took off last week with March climbing to $17.44 and April moving up to $17.10 by last Friday. The momentum continued Monday, as March was up 75 cents to $18.19. April jumped 59 cents to $17.69, and May moved up 50 cents to $17.25. There was more life in the market Tuesday as March, April, May, and June moved up 25,43,39, and 25 cents, respectively, to $18.44, $18.12, $17.64, and $16.99.
Yesterday, Class III future backed off some. March was down 34 cents to $18.10. April was off 27 cents to $17.85. All other months in 2011 were down 18 cents or less.
These still are lofty numbers that have sent some producers to their co-op or broker to take a position on some of their milk, if they hadn't already done so. At the close of business yesterday, February through December Class III futures averaged almost $17 . . . $16.91. This compares to a February through December Class III average of $16.39 less than two weeks ago on January 21.
Part of yesterday's slide may have been due to the Dairy Product report that came out Tuesday afternoon. December cheese production was up 4.7 percent compared to a year ago. We have been running more than 1 billion pounds of cheese in storage and, in today's economy, the December output will only further build up that inventory. Also, production of American cheese in December, including price-setting Cheddar, was up 4.9 percent.
Given strong milk production and dairy product production, it is interesting to speculate on what is driving our markets. Certainly, exports are up dramatically compared to a year ago. Also, corn prices continue to soar, casting doubt on how strong milk production per cow will be in the months ahead. But we continue to have a slug of heifers on hand. On January 1, there were 4.56 million dairy heifers in the U.S. (500 pounds or larger). That compares to 4.53 million a year ago, and it was the largest heifer inventory since 1986.

The Green Wave baseball team survived a seventh-inning Swamp Fox rally Wednesday to remain perfect in region play.
Summerville held on for a 4-3 victory at home to improve to 9-2 with a 4-0 mark in Region 8-AAAA. Ashley Ridge fell to 10-2, 3-1.
Green Wave sophomore Sawyer Bridges only allowed three hits and no runs in five-plus innings on the hill to improve his pitching record to 4-0. He struck out four batters, but also walked four and hit two.
Ashley Ridge starter Carson Walls also pitched five-plus innings in taking the loss. Walls (5-1) only walked three and struck out five, but surrendered nine hits.
Summervilles Johnston McCurry was 3 for 4 at the plate with two RBIs and a run scored. The shortstop also put an end to two Swamp Fox turns at bat with a pair of diving catches with runners on base.
Bridges was 2 for 3 at the plate with an RBI and TJ Hopkins was 2 for 4 with a double and a run scored.
Aaron Miller led the Swamp Foxes, going 3 for 4 with a run scored. Jason Miller reached base three times and Bradley McLaughlin had a homerun.
Jack Bahen and Hopkins singled in the bottom of the third inning and McCurry drove them in with a base hit for a 2-0 Summerville lead.
McCurry opened the bottom of the fifth with a single and stole second. Zach Mosay hit a grounder that was too hot for the Ashley Ridge shortstop and before the ball was fielded McCurry dashed home for a three-run Green Wave lead. Mosay moved around on a double by Charlie Fessler and then scored on a hit by Bridges for a 4-0 score.
But the Swamp Foxes didnt give up.
McLaughlin entered the game in the top of the seventh and sent a solo homer over the left-field fence. After a strikeout, Josh Litchfield and Aaron Miller singled and Rusty Grayson was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Jason Miller received a base on balls that pushed Litchfield home and Aaron Miller scored on a sacrifice fly by Hunter Grover.
The Swamp Foxes then came within inches of tying the game, but Summerville reliever Billy Peatross caught a hard line drive Nick Rowell hit straight back to the pitchers mound for the final out of the game.
Summerville hosts Fort Dorchester Friday while Ashley Ridge travels to Colleton County.

Reciprocity-Induced Cooperation
Vincy Fon
George Washington University - Department of Economics
Francesco Parisi
University of Minnesota - Law School; University of Bologna
Journal of Institutional and Theoretical Economics, Vol. 159, No. 1, pp. 76-92, March 2003
George Mason Law & Economics Research Paper No. 02-13
The concept of reciprocity gains importance where there is no external authority to enforce agreements. Many legal systems foster meta-rules of reciprocity to facilitate cooperative outcomes. This paper considers the role of reciprocity rules in various strategic environments. We start by considering the effect of reciprocity constraints in a classic prisoner's dilemma with two symmetric parties and linear payoffs. We extend the analysis to continuous strategies and then further extend the basic model of reciprocity to a) asymmetric players, and (b) non-linear payoff functions. Then we examine the welfare properties of the reciprocity-induced equilibrium. In many game-theoretic situations, reciprocity facilitates the achievement of cooperative outcomes. Yet the reciprocity-induced equilibrium is not always socially optimal.

Like all little girls, Emily Heaton wanted to be a princess – only her dad actually made it happen.
Jeremiah Heaton was playing with his then 6-year-old daughter last winter when she asked him if she could ever be a real princess. He told her yes, then journeyed to a stretch of unclaimed desert in Africa to plant a flag for her.
"I wanted to show my kids I will literally go to the ends of the earth to make their wishes and dreams come true," Heaton told the Washington Post.
The area, about 800 square miles, sits along the Sudanese border and was previously known as Bir Tawil by the locals. Heaton and his family now call it the "Kingdom of North Sudan."
The father of three plans to formally reach out to the African Union for cooperation in establishing his kingdom.
Heaton found the land after searching online for unclaimed territories of the world. A border dispute between Egypt and Sudan left the remote patch of desert as "terra nullius," meaning "land belonging to no one." He requested permission from the Egyptian authorities to visit the area, admitting that he was dubious of his own plan at first. But everything worked out in the end.
"I cannot stress how kind and generous the Egyptian people are," Heaton told the Post.
He now plans to convert the area into an agricultural production center, after his daughter said she wanted to make sure people of the region had enough food.
"That's definitely a concern in that part of the world," Heaton told the Associated Press. "We discussed what we could do as a nation to help."
It remains unclear whether Heaton's claim over the land will be deemed legitimate. At the very least, he will need to get legal recognition from the neighboring nations.
"I feel confident in the claim we've made," Heaton told the AP. "That's the exact same process that has been done for thousands of years. The exception is this nation was claimed for love."

Columbus McKinnon's third-quarter profits jumped by 13 percent, easily topping analyst forecasts, as the Amherst material handling equipment maker grew rapidly in China and other emerging markets.
That growth, coupled with price increases and a quarter that included two additional shipping days, led to a 7 percent increase in Columbus McKinnon's sales, although company executives warned Friday that its future growth could slow because of weakness in its European markets.
"We're expecting slow growth," said Timothy T. Tevens, Columbus McKinnon's president and chief executive officer, during a conference call. "I think it's a tentative market out there."
Tevens said the recession in Europe will hurt the company's sales in the coming months, while it also is seeing U.S. sales growth slow.
"We're seeing Europe being very fragile," he said. "The U.S. is doing fine. It's just not growing as rapidly as we'd like."
During the third quarter, Columbus McKinnon's profits jumped to $9.6 million, or 49 cents per share, from $8.5 million, or 44 cents per share, a year ago, easily beating the 30 cents per share that analysts were expecting.
The company's sales grew by 7 percent to $153 million during the quarter that ended in December, compared with $143 million a year earlier. U.S. sales, which account for 54 percent of the company's revenues, grew by 5 percent on the strength of its energy and entertainment markets, although the growth rate was cut in half because this year's figure does not include any revenue from the Gaffey crane business it sold during 2012.
International sales grew by almost 10 percent, with revenues from emerging markets jumping by 42 percent as Columbus McKinnon pushed into new markets in South Africa, Turkey, Morocco and Dubai. Excluding fluctuations in exchange rates, international sales grew by 13 percent.
The company's backlog of orders fell by 8 percent to $95.4 million at the end of December, compared with $104.2 million at the end of 2011, which Tevens said was the result of several large orders shipping late last year.

Two teams chasing a Midland Athletic League title.
Two teams trying to earn a postseason spot.
Tonight, one team takes the next step toward achieving those goals. The other has a lot of work ahead of it.
Calvert and Seneca East meet tonight at Frost-Kalnow Stadium with a lot on the line as the 2012 season hits its midpoint.
"We feel that Seneca East is one of the better teams in the MAL, and if we're going to be able to compete for the league title, we're going to have to be ready to go," said Calvert coach Todd Fox, whose team comes in with a 2-2 record.
"We look at the season as basically two sets of five game. With the computer points, [a win is] important, but we don't want to finish the first set of five 2-3 either. Big points, big game at home. It's going to be a great night."
For Seneca East coach Ed Phillips, his Tigers dropped their conference opener last week to Fremont St. Joe. Yet, he says the Tigers are taking a one-game-at-a-time approach.
"Every week's the same to me to a certain extent," he said. "I go in and the team goes in every week going after the win. We don't think any differently because of what happened the week before or what's coming up the week after."
In this case for Seneca East, the week before was a crushing loss where the Tigers rallied from an early 26-0 deficit to take a 27-26 lead, only to fall in the final minute.
"When you go through an intense game like we went through last week, and you stick with each other, and you fight, and you put yourself in a position to win, you see the extremes of your team," Phillips said. "You go through a down spot then rally and come back and show people what your made of.
"We just want to go out every quarter, every minute and show people what we are made of. For a quarter last week, we weren't happy with ourselves. For the next the quarters after that we played at the level we're capable to play at."
Fox meanwhile, was proud of the way his team responded from a tough loss to Woodmore, to rout Lakota in the MAL opener.
"Just overall, the fundamentals were better," he said. "They were running the game plan a little bit better. They were just more mentally prepared for last week's game."
From an offensive standpoint, both teams seem to be built from the same mold.
"I think our offenses are very similar, so I'm excited to see what their defense does to stop us and what our defense will do to stop them."
Fox says this is the first time this season when Calvert will face a team that has a true balanced offensive attack.
"This is one team on our schedule that we've played so far that you have to ready for both portions of the offense," he said. "Their quarterback (Ethan) Caudill is a great player. ... They got a lot of talent in their offense."
Likewise, Phillips sees Calvert's attack centered around its dual-threat quarterback Tyler Long.
"Their quarterback, he's so explosive," Phillips said. "He's a very good football player obviously. Coach Fox has done a really good job with them. Up front they were a very good football team, and they lost a couple guys and did a good job replacing them. Once again they're a very good team up front. Behind them they got a lot of great athletes. They got guys that can play make plays and make them fast."
Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.

Brace yourselves for extraordinarily heavy border traffic this weekend.
Canada's Victoria Day Weekend begins Friday, with the holiday observed Monday.
Never mind that Queen Victoria actually was born on May 24, and not on May 20.
For motorists heading across the border via Western New York, U.S. Customs and Border Protection recommends:
• Preparing for the inspection process before arriving at the inspection booth. That includes having documents in hand, ending cellphone calls, rolling down the windows of your vehicle, and removing sunglasses and hats.
• Visiting the "Know Before You Go" section of the Customs and Border Protection website at www.cbp.gov/travel.
• Allowing for extra time and checking border wait times in case of exceptionally heavy traffic. Wait times can be viewed at www.cbp.gov.
Cross-border travelers are encouraged to participate in the NEXUS program, which allows prescreened, low-risk travelers to proceed with little or no delay entering either country.

It's 11 o'clock on a Friday night and Upper King Street is springing to life.
On one corner, an upscale restaurant wraps up its dinner service and transforms into a nightclub with neon lights and thumping party music.
Across the street, bouncers outside a dive bar pinch cigarettes between their lips as they drag velvet ropes onto the sidewalk, now a necessary measure to manage the impending crowds.
By midnight, the sidewalks are packed with people in their 20s and 30s. Most are beyond the average college age, perhaps because most bars on Upper King Street aren't aimed at college crowds anymore.
What was once an area with a handful of sports bars, record shops and furniture stores is now home to an array of upscale restaurants, high-brow nightclubs and cocktail joints.
Byron Knight, a homeless man once dubbed the Holy City's "best street character" by the Charleston City Paper, spends many nights on this street. Most weekends, he can be found outside the bars, striking up conversations with passersby, shaking hands with some he's known for years. Sometimes, he just comes to watch.
"This is my cable TV," he says, marveling at the scene on the corner of Radcliffe and King streets. "Over there, that's Comedy Central," he points to a group of laughing guys crossing the street, barely missing oncoming traffic.
"That's the History Channel, and that's the Food Network," he says, nodding toward the William Aiken House, then Fish.
"It's constant change," he says. "One of those oxymorons that makes sense."
The burgeoning food and beverage scene is perhaps the most evident sign of how much the nearly mile-long corridor from Calhoun to Line streets has transformed in the past decade into a true Midtown for the city. The changes, along with the construction of hotels, condominiums and a massive mixed-use development planned by The Post and Courier's parent company, promise to remake a landscape that struggled for years to find its focus.
While the new businesses have brought in millions of dollars to the city of Charleston, the growth also raises concerns about policing the area, its effect on nearby neighborhoods, and the potential for development to uproot and displace longstanding businesses.
Claire Xidis, an attorney, lives on Bogard Street, a few blocks from the bar scene on Upper King. She says the neighborhood is regularly disrupted by noisy people heading home when bars close on the weekends.
"Don't get me wrong, I love that I can walk to The Ordinary and have fabulous oysters," she says. "But at the same time, I would like to not get woken up at 2:15 a.m. every weekend after bars close."
Night moves
Over the past eight years, Upper King Street has witnessed the arrival of about 30 new businesses - primarily bars and restaurants - and the majority have popped up in the past three years.
Rusty Day of James Island is among those drawn to the area by the changes. An adjunct professor of marine biology at the College of Charleston, he spends weekends hopping around King Street to bars such as Cocktail Club or The Belmont.
The area near the City Market that long has been regarded as the center of Charleston's nightlife is now overshadowed by Upper King, at least for young professionals and other locals, he says. "It's hard to convince anybody to go out on East Bay and Market streets anymore."
That's a big difference from when Day moved to Charleston 13 years ago for graduate school. At that time, he says, "there was no Upper King Street."
There were some dive bars, such as AC's Bar and Grill and The Silver Dollar, but the more mature nightlife scene didn't arrive until the mid-2000s when Chai's Lounge, a tapas joint, and RAVAL, a Spanish wine bar, opened near John Street.
Karalee Nielsen established RAVAL with business partner Tim Mink in 2005.
"We found a great piece of property up there. It was the right size for the right price, so we decided to gamble on it," Nielsen says. "I definitely think that we took the risk and then everybody thought it was OK to go up there."
The business partners closed the wine bar in 2009 and reopened it as Closed for Business, a craft beer tavern. "Most of the businesses up there are just completely different than what they were," Nielsen says.
Jim Curley, owner of AC's, has seen the transformation firsthand.
AC's has been on the street for 26 years, but moved north of Calhoun 13 years ago after a fire damaged its first location, below Calhoun at 338 King.
At the time, Upper King was far from the foodie scene it is today.
"That was a Huddle House," Curley says, pointing across the street to Basil outside his bar. "There were boards on the windows everywhere you looked. Now it's a high-rent district with fancy restaurants."
Investor interest
That's not a complaint. Business is booming more than ever for AC's, Curley says. It reaches its capacity of about 160 people most nights, and on weekends it has a line outside the door that often stretches past two neighboring buildings.
"It's just because there's a lot going on around here," Curley says. "Essentially, we have a busy bar on our loyal clientele, and then on top of that we have all that traffic of people bar-hopping."
The activity on Upper King reflects a citywide trend of a growing and thriving food and beverage industry.
Charleston receives an accommodations tax of 2 cents from every dollar of food and beverage sales. That revenue grew from $9.8 million in 2010 to nearly $11.5 million in 2012 for a 17 percent gain.
The success new businesses are experiencing in the area has drawn significant interest from investors. Though the restaurant and nightlife scene may be the trend on Upper King at the moment, upcoming developments promise to fill in the corridor with a mix of businesses in the next few years.
Patrick Price, a real estate developer with PrimeSouth Group, says demand is higher than ever for space in the area. The vacancy rate is about 2 percent, and investors are dealing up front in cash, he says.
"If you can't provide the cash, there's somebody behind you that will," Price says. "It just shows the level of people trying to get downtown in this area right now."
In 1989, property on Upper King Street leased for about $6 per square foot, or about $11 in today's market. Now, properties are leasing for at least $40 per square foot, Price says.
Demand is so high, development has spilled onto Spring, Cannon and other surrounding streets, with trendy bars and restaurants popping up in old warehouses, gas stations and other spots.
The surge of interest in the area means property owners, many of them developers, can afford to be choosy with their tenants.
"We want to get a tenant mix so there's not just one type of use," Price says. "It's considered a food and bev area, but we're really getting a good retail mix now."
Locally owned boutiques such as JLinsnider, Magnifilous Toy Emporium and Seeking Indigo have opened on the street in the past few years and more are expected to join them, Price says.
Tim Keane, the city's director of Planning, Preservation and Sustainability, agrees. "We now have retailers wanting to go on Upper King, retailers that I don't think one or two years ago would have done it."
The area
Several complexes planned for the street will feature housing, retail and office space all under one roof.
Elan Midtown, an upscale housing and retail complex under construction at Meeting and Spring streets, is nearly complete.
PrimeSouth Group has plans for two more complexes, including a boutique hotel with a parking deck and office and retail space near the corner of Ann and King streets.
Evening Post Industries, the parent company of The Post and Courier, also plans to begin a 10-year construction project on nearly 12 acres it owns around King, St. Philip and Meeting streets. The development, named Courier Square, would include a mix of housing, office, parking and retail space.
A new Holiday Inn is open on nearby Meeting Street, and five more hotels planned for the area promise to bring in even more foot traffic and potential shoppers.
"In 18 to 24 months you're going to see a big change," Patrick says. "And in five years, this area of Charleston will look vastly different."
The first seeds for this transformation were planted some 40 years ago, as the city sought ways to reverse an exodus of merchants and shoppers from a key urban corridor once filled with a diverse mix of department stores and mom-and-pop shops, many of which were owned by Eastern Europeans and Jewish immigrants.
Joe Riley made revitalizing King Street a centerpiece of his 1974 mayoral campaign, and the city met with great success with the stretch below Calhoun, thanks in large part to the addition of Charleston Place, which drew pedestrians from the then-newly restored City Market.
But Upper King proved a more stubborn obstacle. The city hired consultants, built a Visitor Center to attract tourists, constructed parking garages, opened the street to two-way traffic, improved lighting, buried utilities and updated sidewalks. But for a variety of reasons, plans to remake the area into an antiques district, a furniture mecca or an urban design corridor never quite stuck.
Moving out
Then an unexpected boon came in the form of the bar and restaurant scene, which seemed to follow college students and other urban homesteaders who flocked to surrounding neighborhoods such as Cannonborough/Elliotborough in search of cheap rent and affordable homes.
For many longtime merchants who stuck out the lean years, the transformation has been a mixed bag.
Tom Reid, whose family has operated a fabric store at the corner of King and Spring streets for 100 years, likes having more places to dine and is excited about the prospect of more customers from a hotel being built across the street. "You'll have people coming from all over the country, and at least some of them will wander across the street to us," he says.
But nearby Star Beauty Supplies, which has catered to a predominantly African American crowd since 1992, is planning to move. Many of its customers have moved out of the surrounding neighborhoods or are put off by the dearth of parking on the crowded strip, says Cathy Yi, whose family owns the business. They are negotiating with a bar that wants to move into their building, she says.
"If you're selling alcohol, you're doing well, but with retail ...," she says with a shrug as her words trail off.
The buzz of the street at night is undeniable, though.
"I drive home on King, and the only place I've ever seen so much happening is New York," says Brooks Reitz, general manager of The Ordinary, an upscale restaurant that took over a former bank building on King. "A year ago it felt like we were in no-man's land. Now I can walk out the door and eat delicious handmade pasta at Indaco; I can curve around Spring Street and eat fresh flavors at Xiao Bao Biscuit."
Today, the area has more white tablecloths than ever, and a high-brow attitude has caught on with many of the bars as well. The strip's gritty image now seems a thing of the past.
Miles Ware, who frequents the street's night scene, was surprised to be turned away from The Republic Garden & Lounge one Friday night for wearing sneakers and jeans. The nightclub has a strict dress code.
"This is a first for me," Ware says. "This didn't used to happen. Not on Upper King Street."

In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings, would you advocate tighter security at such events in the future?
Security is just a way to make you feel better; in reality there is no way to have 100% security. Shale we assign a personal bodyguard to each person so they can be escorted across the street and not be injured, so we can make sure they are "secure". There are security risks every day, not just at large scale events, so to sit at home and watch life unfold on a television is not living it is just sad. I would rather take a chance than to hide in fear my entire life. That is what this country was founded on taking risks not hiding.

Wow Garben78, while you may think you made a profound and deep statement it was in reality less than vapid. That's just my humble opinion. Keep trying, though! :-)

I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you choose to stay home and sit in front of a tv that's your choice. I refuse to live in fear of what might happen tomorrow. We're all going to die someday and I don't want my legacy to be determined by what event I watched on tv. I would rather volunteer during the LLWS, like I do every year, because there are things when you are there that you just can't experience on tv. That experience and camaraderie that I get is what I live for.

I think it's safe to say that when you go to an event like the marathon you want to believe you are in a secure place. Although more security would help, I doubt in this case that more security would have prevented this. The Boston Marathon has a wide open format, there is no way you could make the whole run secure. In the end, when you have psychopaths, like the two terrorists in Boston, that believe they have a mission I don't think all the security in the world would prevent them from succeeding to a certain level. All more security is going to do is give you a warm and fuzzy feeling inside that you are safe. When the reality is what we found out a few weeks ago. I guess staying home would be an answer but even a S&W wouldn't prevent the effects of a dirty bomb!!!

LOCKPORT – The son of a man who threw himself to his death minutes before he would have been taken to state prison on a rape conviction filed suit against Niagara County last week.
The lawsuit claims the Sheriff's Office was negligent in not preventing the suicide of Harold G. Case, who climbed onto the railing of a second-floor walkway in the jail Jan. 23, 2012, jumped head first, and died on the concrete below.
Case had threatened suicide in a phone call from jail, Assistant District Attorney Elizabeth R. Donatello told County Judge Matthew J. Murphy III during a court appearance in April 2011.
"He can't handle state prison," Donatello said at that court appearance. "If he has to do more than a year or two, he'll settle things his own way."
The suit, filed by Lockport attorney Jon L. Wilson on behalf of Douglas Case, asserts that the county should have installed a chain-link fence, a sheet of Plexiglas, or some other barrier along the railing to stop Case from killing himself. It also charges that some care should have been taken because of Case's past suicide threat. The suit does not specify damages sought.
No changes have occurred in the layout or in procedures for prisoner transportation since Case's death, Sheriff James R. Voutour said.
"That's something we couldn't prevent," Voutour said. "He obviously planned it. If there was something we could have done to prevent it, we would have prevented it."
Wilson disagreed.
"I want to find out why there couldn't be something done," he said. "You have prisoners who may have mental health issues. You have prisoners who may be acting out for other reasons."
Case, 50, of Hartland, had pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of attempted first-degree rape, and was sentenced by Murphy to the maximum 15 years in prison.
Case had assaulted a Lockport woman he knew at knife point in her home March 25, 2011.
He was held in the County Jail until Jan. 23, when he and other prisoners were to be transported to state prisons.
Voutour said Case was neither shackled nor handcuffed at the time he jumped off the walkway in one of the jail's "pods," or cellblocks. He was on his way to be handcuffed when he threw himself off the walkway.
"He'd just left his cell," the sheriff said. "He took that opportunity to leave. I suppose we could have cuffed and shackled him in his cell, but we don't do that."
Wilson said the potential should have been recognized.
"If you have a significant change of elevation, to my way of thinking, there's a potential for harm," Wilson said.
The sheriff noted the jail is in compliance with state regulations.
We're audited every year. … I'm very confident we'll be fine in this lawsuit," he said.
Case's defense attorney, George V.C. Muscato, said at the sentencing that Case had spent time in the psychiatric unit of Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center in the past, and also blamed the rape on Case being drunk.
"Harold Case struggled with alcoholism," Muscato said.

Is this free publicity for HPC actually a big thank you from the Times?
HPC must generate a lot of hits for the Times' website through the news blog links.
More likely a thanks you for being the origin of all their bearish stories and giving some constructive feedback on the crap that they were churning out.

Molokai Middle School has come a long way since its separation from the high school in 2004. Thanks to after-school programs and heavy community involvement, students are excelling in and out of the classroom.
The middle school celebrated its recognition as "the most improved public school in Hawaii," when Board of Education Chairman Donald Horner presented the award to students, staff and faculty late last month in the school's courtyard.
However, the board was most impressed by the middle school's ability to achieve adequate yearly progress, a distinction that less than half of the public and public charter schools in the state can claim.
Article Photos
Office of Hawaiian Affairs Chairwoman Colette Machado speaks at a gathering last month in the courtyard of the Molokai Middle School, which was honored with "the most improved public school in Hawaii" award, presented by Board of Education Chairman Donald Horner.
Criteria for the two achievements are determined by the Hawaii State Assessment Program, which determines whether a school is making adequate progress toward the No Child Left Behind mandate of proficiency in every student by 2014.
Despite tremendous lows in reading and mathematics proficiency in 2011, the middle school passed this year's adequate progress benchmarks. In reading proficiency, the school improved from 45 to 62 percent and in mathematics, it jumped from 37 to 61 percent.
"When you're down at the bottom, year after year, it's hard to make those kinds of gains," said Principal Gary Davidson. "But we came in last year and said, 'Let's focus on the kids and celebrate when they do well.' We can't discipline kids, we have to motivate them."
Davidson came to the school after serving as the vice principal at Hana High and Elementary, and said he found the same situation in Molokai as he did in Hana.
"We had to take down the barriers," said Davidson. "We adults talk about change and how special the students are, but we need the students to believe in themselves, and they're starting to."
Although the school has made substantial progress over the last year, Molokai Drug Store and General Store owner Kimberly Svetin said the recent success was many years in the making.
Svetin said the community and some of its key members have helped the middle school over the years by providing programs for students.
She said Barbara Kalipi, who serves as executive director for Queen Lili'uokalani Children's Center on Molokai, provided a grant for the middle school's chess program.
"Every student, even the autistic ones, are taught chess in the 7th grade," Svetin said. "So by the end of this year, over 200 students will know how to play chess, and it's helped with test scores and problem solving. The children's center has stayed behind the scenes, but they're a huge community partner."
Svetin has two children, one in 3rd grade at Molokai Elementary School and the other in 8th grade at the middle school. Her 3rd-grader plays chess, but her 8th-grader is part of another program called STEM, which stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
"STEM is a national program that started relatively recently in Hawaii," said Svetin, who also served as the chairwoman on the middle school's community council. "For the past five years, the Maui Economic Development Board has helped the school grow the program, which allows students to program robots or learn about structural engineering."
The STEM program was implemented last year, and teacher Kaeo Kawaa served as the program's instructor. Kawaa is the first teacher to be primarily designated for a STEM program in the state.
Last weekend, Molokai Middle School's Golden Eyes robotics team, which came out of the STEM program, took the overall first place Champions Award at the Hawaii FIRST LEGO League Championship on Oahu.
"I think what kick-started the program was in the last school year at the annual STEM conference in March," said Kawaa. "In our first year, we won the Program Impact Assessment award, which was the highest award at the conference. It got everyone excited to pursue this program."
Kawaa said the projects created in the program help students with real-world issues and hands-on experience.
"We go outdoors and do planting, landscaping, building," said Kawaa. "In fact, we just laid 300 feet of waterline. They worked on trenching, cutting the pipes ... STEM has added a new dimension to the school."
Student council President Sydney Adams takes part in the STEM program and enjoys the newfound technology.
"I get to learn things that I never knew how to do," Adams said. "We make videos, public announcements and graphics."
The 8th-grader has seen the progress the school has made, dating back to her 6th-grade year, and said that the parents know that students are capable of doing better.
