    Dream Car Contest Revealed

    The Dream Car, featured in this years photo contest, is a 2009 Bentley GTC Convertible. The contest photo (left) was taken seconds before the photo on the right. This particular car is owned and enjoyed by Bob Hammond of Ocean City, Maryland. Congratulations to Kevin McKnight of West Ocean City on winning the $150 gift certificate to Nextwave Studios. Hundreds of guesses were sub-mitted. Kevin was randomly selected from only three correct guesses.

    Mayor Rick Meehan, has been chosen to be the Honorary Chairperson of the Art League of Ocean Citys (ALOC) 2010 Sand Castle Home Tour. ALOC President Rina Thaler said, Having Rick lend his name to the home tour gives the ALOC and the tour a lot of credibility, as he has always been supportive of the ALOC. The self-guided tour, featuring 10 well-appointed homes, will be held over two days on September 23 and 24, 2010. Over 1,000 people attended last years event. This will be the ALOCs sixth annual home tour to raise funds for a new, larger facility for the Art League. The cost of the tour is $25 per person.

    Sitting in a small classroom, a dozen students listen intently as two of their peers passionately debate human cloning. Nothing is unusualexcept that these students, on average, are 60 years old. Since they last wore a cap and gown, most members of the class have had one or more careers, one or more marriages, raised fami-lies, and lived a life that started way back in the 20th Century. The subject that so engages them at 10 a.m. on a winter morning is Bioethics and Genetic Engineering. Kim is 58 and recently retired from running a catering business. Shes sitting at her computer, but not surfing the Internet. Shes doing an online course offered by a university, located 1,500 miles away. Shes working toward a credential as an English Profes-sor. Kims dream is to work part-time in Spain, where she and her companion think they would like to retire. Teaching will give her a bridge job, she says, between her career as a manager and full retirement. Frank, her significant other, is on his way out the door to go to schoolwhich isnt the same as going to work. Frank is an athletic 55 year-old who took early retirement from his adminis-trative job. Hes enrolled in the local continuing education program to sharpen his information technology skills. He has a brand new 15-year life plan: Using old contacts and new skills, Frank wants to build an educational consulting business. He hopes to sell the busi-ness at age 68, when his wife retires, so they can travel. When he hits 70, Frank expects to finish his career where he began; working with young children as a classroom volunteer. Meanwhile, when

    Continuing Educationpeople ask what hes doing, Frank grins and says, Informa-tion TechnologyIm doing IT! Love isnt the same the second time around, they say, and neither is school. At age 50, 60, or 70, theres no career pres-sure, no crushing student loans, and no competition for grades. Lots of mature students are taking exams and writing papers, yet not worrying about accumulating credits or grad school. Whether they are enrolling purely for pleasure, finishing a de-gree, or getting professional certification for a second career, Grand Citizens seem to enjoy the second time around as a student. For men and women anticipating several decades of good health, education becomes a way to freshen up skills, pick up a new credential, and get ready for a different or a part-time career. According to the U.S. Department of Education, in 2005, more than a quarter of a million U.S. students were over age 50. More than 90,000 students, over 60, were enrolled in universities, colleges, and two-year colleges. The number of older students continues to grow steadily. The over-50 student population increased by 50 percent since the early 1990s, and shows no sign of abating. Some are retooling for a second, third, or fifth career. Others who return to school are pursuing new dreams and rekindling old passions. As a Grand Citizen, school offers opportunities to review, read, and discuss, the events of a lifetime. The older you are,

You now have the freedom to choose the classes you like, without being pigeonholed into a curriculum. Paul tells us that when he studied for his law degree, he missed out on fine art classes and finds them so fascinating now. I can go back and learn about whatever I like, he tells us. Continuing education is big business. Its a subset of the education industry, com-plete with its own trade group, the National University of Continuing Education Associa-tion. Some colleges are making significant financial investments in faculty, facilities, and programs to capture the adult student market. The result is often a professionally run adult educational program with course offerings in almost every field, both for credit and on a non-credit basis. Who takes adult education classes? Everyone! There are housewives, lawyers, and great-grandparents, who in addition to studying, are often juggling jobs and family responsibilities. So, if your notion of adult education classes is Aunt Julie taking basket weaving, look again. There are so many reasons to go back to school!

    Abundant options.

    Education improves the quality of life.

    Its fun!

    Its often at a lower cost as a Grand Citizen.

    You can re-tool for your Second Act.

    Options are flexible.

    Todays Pellet Stoves Before the 20th century, 90% of Americans burned wood to heat their homes. As fossil fuel use rose, the percentage of Americans using wood for fuel dropped, falling as low as one percent by 1970. Then during the energy crises of the 1970s, interest in wood heating resurfaced as a renewable energy alternative. Newer on the scene are pellet fuel appliances, which burn small pellets that look like rabbit feed and measure 3/8 to 1 inch in length. Pellets are made from compacted sawdust, wood chips, bark, agricultural crop waste, waste paper, and other organic materials. Some pellet fuel appliances can burn a wide variety of biomass fuels, including nutshells, corn kernels, small wood chips, bar-ley, beet pulp, sunflowers, dried cherry pits, and soybeans. They are more convenient to operate and have much higher combustion and heating efficien-cies than ordinary wood stoves or fireplaces. As an added benefit, pellet stoves produce very little air pollution. In fact, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, pellet stoves are the cleanest of solid fuel-burning residential heating appliances. With combustion efficiencies of 78%85%, they are also exempt from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) smoke-emission testing require-ments. Pellet stoves have heating capacities that

    range between 8,000 and 90,000 British Thermal Units (Btu) per hour. They are suitable for homes as well as apartments or condo-miniums Its important to use a properly sized pellet stove for the space to be heated. When an appliance is too big, residents tend to burn fires at a low smolder to avoid overheating, which wastes fuel and can cause air pollution. A reputable dealer should talk with you about size requirements, but a good rule-of-thumb is that a stove rated at 60,000 British Thermal Units (Btu) can heat a 2,000 square foot home, while a stove rated at 42,000 Btu can heat a 1,300 square foot space. Most pellet stoves cost between $1,700 and $3,000. However, a pellet stove is often less expensive to install than a cordwood-burn-ing heater. Many can be direct-vented and do not need an expensive chimney or flue. As a result, the installed cost of the entire system may be less than that of a conventional wood stove. Pellet fuel appliances are available as freestanding stoves or fireplace inserts. Freestanding units resemble conventional cordwood heaters, meaning they generally heat a single room well, but not adjacent rooms unless you use a fan to force the warm air into those other spaces. There are also fireplace inserts that fit into existing fireplaces. Several companies now make pellet-fired furnaces and boilers for replacement of, or a supplement to, gas or oil-fired furnaces and boilers in residential space heating systems. All pellet-fuel appliances have a fuel hopper to store the pellets until they are needed for burning. Most hoppers hold 35 and 130 pounds (16 and 60 kilograms [kg]) of fuel, which will last a day or more, under normal operating conditions. A feeder device, like a

    Second Act

    At the age of 17, he stepped foot for the first time on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). David Bulldog Roth-ner knew this was the job for him. But little did Bulldog know it would change his life forever, allowing him to find his true passion and fulfill lifelong dreams. Making only $75 a week, Bulldog hoped to make just enough to fix his car, which would get him to California within a couple months. Instead, he found himself doing every job on the CME trading floor from desk manager and floor runner, to working the pit for two years, before getting his own seat on the exchange floor in May of 1984. As Bulldog reflected, he said, I had the best and most fun job in Chicago! I got to work along side my mentors and my best friends. Those were the good ole days. As an entrepreneur, Bulldog also explored other business adventures including being the co-founder of the U.S. Shidokan Association. Shidokan Karate is bare-knuckled knockdown karate. Tournaments are full contact and held in a boxing ring. Bulldog also founded the U.S. Shidokan Open, which has developed into one of the premier mixed martial arts tournaments in the world. Inspired by change, spontaneity, and following his dream to live in the Caribbean, after 18 years of working at the CME, Bulldog retired at the age of 35. He and his wife, Nancy, relocated to the island of St. Maarten to promote two Shidokan world champion fighters. In August of 1998, after meeting with a local radio station to promote the matches, Bulldog joined their morning show. It was at that station he found his true passion for radio and began the Bulldog and The Rude Awakening Show. The show was an instant success and captured an audience of seven other surround-ing islands. What was intended to be one relaxing year turned into six years in the Islands.

    While still living in St. Maarten, a mutual friend introduced Bulldog to Ocean City entrepreneur and owner of Seacrets, Leighton Moore. After spending almost 24 hours straight in a local bar, Leighton and Bulldog became quick friends. In 2004, Leighton invited Bulldog to visit Seacrets and to do some voice-over work for Leightons new radio station. Al-ready back in the states and living in Houston, Bulldog hopped a plane and headed for Maryland. Soon after, Leighton offered Bulldog the job of the stations morning man and general manager of WOCM. Bulldog loved the idea of living in the area and working for an independent radio station with room to grow. This is a dream come true! All the other stuff was incredibly fun, but it got me to where I am to today and what I am most passionate about. On January 10, 2005, Bulldog and The Rude Awakening Show was heard across Delmarva for the first time, and it con-tinues to be heard weekday mornings from 6-10 a.m. on 98.1, locally and worldwide at www.irieradio.com. Their slogan, its Edge-U-Tainment, says it all. Bulldog was quoted saying, Being a very opinionated person, I get to tell people what I think every morning. Who wouldnt love that? When hes not working, Bulldog loves producing the show, spending time with his family, traveling, going to concerts, and driving his Ferraris. Bulldog is currently working on a book about his experiences and the incredible people he has been able to meet and interview. GLM

    large screw, drops a few pellets at a time into the combustion chamber for burning. How quickly pellets are fed to the burner determines the heat output. The exhaust gases are vented by way of a small flue pipe that can be directed out of a side wall or upwards through the roof. More advanced models have a small computer and thermostat to govern the pellet feed rate. Pellet appliances usually require refueling only once a day, and since the fuel is com-pressed and bagged, the operator does not have to lift heavy, dirty logs. Most pellet appliance exteriors (except glass doors) stay relatively cool while operating, reducing the risk of ac-cidental burns. Since pellet stoves burn fuel so completely, very little creosote builds up in the flue, posing less of a fire hazard. If you have an older wood-burning appli-ance, consider upgrading to one of the newer appliances certified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). They include a cata-lytic combustor that allows combustion gases to burn at lower temperatures, thereby cleaning the exhaust gas while generating more heat. All wood stoves sold today should bear an EPA certification sticker. High-efficiency appliances not only have lower emissions, but they are also safer, since complete combustion helps to prevent a buildup of flammable chimney deposits called creosote. If you want to retrofit an existing non-cata-lytic wood-burning appliance with a catalytic combustor, you can buy a catalytic damper. These are available as kits and are usually installed in the flue collar. To monitor the stove temperature after adding a catalytic combustor, you should also install at least one heat sensor on the stove body or stove pipe. Several manu-facturers sell retrofit kits, and they may be available from wood stove retailers. They are not appropriate for all types of stoves. Again, be sure to follow the manufacturers installa-tion and operating instructions, and seek the advice of a reputable seller. The location of the appliance (and chimney) will influence how well heat is distributed and conserved in your home. Most wood- and pellet-burning appliances are essentially space heaters, and should be put in the room where you spend most of your time. Ideally, there should be a way for heat to circulate to the rest of the house. For safety, and to maximize efficiency, you should consider having a professional install your wood- or pellet-burning appliance. A professional will carefully evaluate everything from your chimney to your floor protection. A certified professional can also help you choose the best appliance to heat your home. GLM

    Its that time of year againTime to determine what items in your clothes closet stay for the next season, and which ones go. Since closet space is typically a commodity, and unless youre willing to pay top dollar for a professionally-installed system, its always important not to waste any space in areas of the closet you already have. Of course, the blanket mantra One new item in, and one old out, applies to any area of your home or office, where youve deter-mined should be organized. Follow these tips below to get started, then when each new season dawns, you will have your systems already in place.

    1. Dont waste space at the bottom or top of your closet. Bottom: Purchase racks for shoes or build low-cost cubbyholes to store purses and ac-cessories. You can even use old bookcases for instant shelving. Top: Use plastic milk crates for t-shirts and sweatshirts. Purchase colorful canvas bins to store non-seasonal shoes and formal handbags and accessories.

    2. Never purchase an item of clothing un-less you believe it will now be your favorite outfit, dress, suit, etc. Chances are likely, if its not your favorite now, it will never beso why buy it?

    3. Remove all wire hangers from your clos-et, and return them to the dry cleaners. Wire hangers are flimsy and can ruin collars and sleeves. Use plastic, wooden, and padded hangers for all of your clothes (purchased from the Dollar Store). Tiered hangers can save space by holding multiple slacks, skirts, scarves and pashminas.

    4. Hang tablecloths in a closet on heavy, wooden hangers. Grand Tip Never return garments to your closet with ripped hems, missing buttons, stains, or with any other damage. Repair clothing promptly to save time and annoyance later on!

    Things look a lot different today. Weve had two notable bear markets in less than a decade. The Standard & Poors 500 Stock In-dex (an unmanaged index of stocks) lost 49% from 2000 to 2002, and after recovering and reaching new highs, lost another 57% from late 2007 to early 2009. This experience has likely caused you to reconsider how much risk you are willing to accept. Todays investor truly understands what it means to deal with investment risk. It isnt just a theory like it was during the 1990s, but a real possibility. Facing that reality, investors know they have to take risk more seriously, and try to determine their appropriate risk tolerance level.

    Assessing your own risk profile.

    Here are some ideas to keep in mind as you define your own views about investment risk:

    Set proper expectations. Its important to accept that stock investments will be subject to periodic volatility. The reward potential of investing in future growth of global businesses remains strong, but the path to wealth is not always smooth. Prepare yourself for the fact that it will get bumpy along the way.

    Try to maintain a consistent investment behavior. Take an objective view of your investment goals. Combine that with an honest appraisal of how much fluctuation you are willing to accept with your portfolio. Invest accordingly and stick with that strategy. Dont let short-term swings and day-to-day headlines sway your long-range resolve as an investor.

    Recognize that time is one of the biggest determinants of risk tolerance. Investors with a decade or more to reach their goal have the luxury of riding out market downturns or even extended flat or negative markets. Those who expect to reach their goals in the next few years need to take steps to protect against the impact of market volatility. Your risk tolerance level may need to be adjusted as you grow older.

    How much risk are you, as an investor, willing to ac-cept? This is one of the most important factors that can affect the way you structure your portfolio and your overall financial plan. Yet it is also one of the most difficult to quantify. There is no universally accepted way of accurately measuring an investors risk tolerance. A number of factors come into play, including the investment and economic environment you are dealing with at the moment. For example, consider how you might have answered a question about your level of risk tolerance during the record bull market of the 1990s. Given that the market rarely experienced an extended down period during that decade, many investors were comfortable implementing an invest-ment strategy that was quite aggressive. They were con-vinced there was little chance that the stock market would suffer a significant setback.

    A Realistic Perspective On RiskChristopher Hoen, CRCP

  • Trust your instincts. If you have trouble sleeping at night because of concerns about the safety of your investments, it may be time for a change. But be sure that any decisions you make align with your ultimate financial goals.

    Explore ways to stay invested in the market while mitigating some of the risk associated with it. Dollar-cost averaging into investments, rather than investing lump sums at one time is one option. Maintaining proper diversification across a variety of asset classes is another. Products (such as variable annuities) that allow you to continue to participate in the markets growth potential, while locking in gains, are also worth considering.

    Remember other risks.

    While the risk of losing money in an invest-ment is always foremost in your mind, dont overlook other potential risks. Among them: Purchasing power risk inflation is

    always a factor. Simply stated, your money wont be worth as much in the future as it is today. It is important to own investments that can help your asset base at least keep pace with inflation, and hopefully grow faster than the cost of living.

    Opportunity risk missing out on potential profits in a specific investment by choosing to have your money in a safe place, or being unable to access money for a period of time in order to put it to work in a more effective way.

    Interest rate risk fixed income instru-ments such as bonds, carry their own risks, one of them being that if inter-est rates rise, bond values will decline. Given that yields are currently at histori-cally low levels, this risk may be more significant today.

    Managing risk, in an effective way, will play a role in determining your ultimate investment success. It is an issue to take seri-ously and to deal with honestly. GLM

The Standard & Poors 500 Index (S&P 500 Index), an unmanaged index of common stocks, is frequently used as a general measure of market performance. The index reflects reinvestment of all distributions and changes in market prices, but excludes brokerage commissions or other fees. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Diversification helps you spread risk throughout your portfolio, so investments that do poorly may be balanced by others that do relatively better. Diversification and dollar-cost averaging do not assure a profit and do not protect against loss in declining markets. Variable annuities are insurance products that are complex long-term investment vehicles that are subject to market risk, including potential loss of principal invested. There are risks associated with fixed income investments, including credit risk, interest rate risk, and prepayment and extension risk. In gen-eral, bond prices rise when interest rates fall and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities. Investment products, including shares of mutual funds, are not federally or FDIC-insured, are not depos-its or obligations of, or guaranteed by any financial institution and involve investment risks including possible loss of principal and fluctuation in value. 2010 Ameriprise Financial, Inc.

    Its estimated that perhaps 50 million Americans suffer from some type of chronic sleep disorder. In todays busy world, it is difficult for anyone to get eight hours of sleep. Most people are lucky to grab five or six hours, and very few get what would be considered a restful sleep. More times than not, the culprit is Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Its a disorder in which a person repeatedly and unknowingly stops breathing for short periods of time; maybe hundreds of times each night. Rarely is it fatal, but it prevents restful sleep and could lead to other complications. Medical professionals estimate that as many as 18 million Americans might experience it, yet as few as one-eighth of them have been diagnosed as having it. So how does a person find out? Its very easily accomplished through a sleep study ordered by your physician and administered at one of the areas sleep centers, designed to look for Sleep Apnea or other sleep-impairing conditions. The process begins with a simple question and answer test that provides staff a pretty good idea if problems exist. A specially trained technician conducting the study will place electrodes on the patients face, chin, abdomen and legs. These electrodes are required to properly monitor and record brain waves, eye move-ment, sleep stages (light, deep or REM/dream sleep), and any leg movements or other restless activity during sleep. Belts will be strapped around the patients chest and abdomen to monitor breath-ing patterns. Heart rate will be monitored throughout the evening as well as oxygen saturation levels. An infrared camera will also record the session. Then, its off to bed. The test itself is painless and requires a patient to do just one thing...sleep. In the morning, youre awak-ened and you go home. Sleep studies are generally scored within a day or two by a reg-istered polysomnographic technician who reviews, in very precise detail, what occurs over the course of the entire night, by exam-ining thousands of 30 second increments of how a person slept. Theyre looking for signs of sleep, what sleep stages a patient achieved, limb movements, breathing abnormalities, arousals, oxy-gen levels and heart rhythms, de-saturations and other indications of sleep interruption. A specialized computer then generates a report for a pulmonolo-gist (a physician who specializes in breathing and lung disorders), and from it they construct an individualized treatment plan. From these data, doctors can determine whether or not a patient breathes normally during their sleep. If they do have sleep disordered breathing, the test can determine the severity of their problem.

    The Science of SleepPhysicians can also diagnose other sleep problems, such as nocturnal seizures or periodic limb movement disorder, which may be contributing to the patients sleepiness. For most Obstructive Sleep Apnea sufferers, the treatment is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure or CPAP. Its a device with a mask or nosepiece thats fitted to the patient and

    delivers pressurized air at a medically determined optimal rate. The pressurized air helps to keep the airway from closing during sleep, resulting in a much more restful sleep. Thats beneficial for not only the CPAP wearer but also for their bed partners who must deal with the constant snoring and restless-

  • ness of the person next to them. CPAP allows patients to sleep through the night without interruptions, and also eliminates the decreases in oxygen levels that can be caused by sleep apnea. It is this drop in oxygen level that contributes to high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes which are more commonly seen in patients with sleep apnea. Some patients will also benefit from a surgical approach, and your physician will work with you to schedule a consultation with an Ear, Nose and Throat specialist. For others, a specially fitted dental appliance will also help to keep the airway open. If youd like to learn more about sleep apnea, and how you can be scheduled for a sleep study locally, speak with your primary care physician. GLM

    Diabetes is a chronic disease that has major, long-term compli-cations including blindness, heart disease, kidney disease and nerve damage. According to the 2009 Professional Research Consul-tants (PRC) Community Health Assessment, 14.3% of adults in Worcester, Wicomico and Somerset counties have been diagnosed with diabetes. In the state of Maryland, 8.7% of the population has diabetes and nationwide 11.1% have diabetes. The diagnosis of diabetes can be made using several tests. Two of the most common are the confirmation of a fasting blood sugar greater than 126 mg/dl on at least two different occasions, or a random blood sugar of 200 mg/dl, along with classic symptoms of dia-betes, which include: frequent thirst, frequent urination, blurred vision and unexplained weight loss. A two hour blood glucose of 200 mg/dl or more, during an oral glucose tolerance test, may also be used to diagnose diabe-tes. This year, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) approved the use of the Hemoglobin A1C for diagno-sis of diabetes. An A1C of 6.5% or greater is indicative of diabetes. Fast-ing is not required for an A1C test. In Type 2 diabetes, blood glucose levels can creep up over time, and the effects of diabetes may not be no-ticed until the blood sugar is quite high. That is why screening for diabetes is important. If you are over-weight, get little activity, have high blood pressure, and a family history of diabetes, you need to talk to your doctor about your risk of developing diabetes. The incidence of Type 2 diabetes is higher in African Americans, Native Americans, Hispanic American/Latino, Asian American and Pacific Islander populations. Women who have had a baby over nine pounds, or who have had gestational diabetes, have a higher risk of developing diabetes. Early screening can identify pre-diabetes or diabetes. Pre-diabe-tes is diagnosed if you have a fasting blood sugar of 100-125 mg/dl or an A1C of 5.7-6.4%. Being diagnosed with pre-diabetes requires an action plan. Get active, lose weight, eat healthy and make sure

    Susan Cottongim, RD, LDN, CDE, Diabetes Education Coordinator at Peninsula Regional, center, discusses nutrition options during a recent diabetes education class at the Medi-cal Center.

    Susan Cottongim, RD, LDN, CDEyour blood pressure is under control. Research has shown that people with pre-diabetes can delay or prevent the onset of diabetes by losing weight and increasing physical activity. The Diabetes Prevention Program research study showed that effective diet, exercise and behavior modification reduced the risk of developing diabetes by 58 %. Participants lost weight, which improved their bodys ability to use their insulin, resulting in better blood glucose control. Participants tracked their fat and calorie intake and exercised for 150 minutes each week.

    You Have the Power to Control It-Diabetes 101

    20 Grand Living Magazine

  • Good nutrition and healthy meal planning are essential in any plan for pre-diabetes or diabetes management. Eating regularly-scheduled meals and snacks can help bal-ance carbohydrate intake through the day. Carbohydrates are essential for good health and a key nutrient for managing blood glu-cose control. Carbohydrates turn into sugar and sugar provides fuel for the body. If you eat too many carbohydrates, and do not have enough insulin to use those carbohydrates, then the blood sugar can be high. Some-times diabetes medications such as pills or insulin are required to help achieve the right balance, along with a healthy meal plan and physical activity. Diabetes control can be assessed every three months by using the A1C test. The goal is to lower the A1C to less than 7% for good control and reduced risk of diabetes complications. Research has shown that the A1C can be reduced by 1-2% through Medical Nutrition Therapy. Learning about the carbohydrate content of food is essential. You dont have to stop eating rice, potatoes, pasta, bread, corn, milk, yogurt and fruit. Because these foods contain mostly carbo-hydrates, you may just need to eat smaller portions at meals and snacks. Many medical centers, hospitals and health departments offer diabetes self-management programs. At a program, you can learn about blood glucose testing, healthy eating, diabetes medications, exercise, the Diabetes Care Team and healthy coping. Programs are taught by health professionals including cer-tified diabetes educators, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists and exercise physiologists. The Tri-County Diabetes Alliance includes medi-cal centers, hospitals, health departments, diabetes organizations and others who con-duct risk assessments, diabetes screenings, and provide education programs for people to learn how to manage their diabetes. You can visit their website at www.tridiabetes.org or contact one of the following for more in-formation: Somerset County 443-523-1760, Wicomico County 410-543-7061, Worcester County 410-632-0056. Dont wait any longer to get your diabe-tes under control. Keeping your A1C at less than 7% can significantly reduce your risk of diabetes complications. Remember you can control your diabetes...it does not have to control you. GLM

  • There was a time when cosmetic eye surgery was considered a discussion taboo a did she or didnt she? conversation that took place in whispered tones. Fortunately, those days are over. Today, eye lift surgeries (known medi-cally as a Blepharoplasty) are commonplace for both women and men. In fact, the surgery ranks in the top five cosmetic surgeries performed in the United States*, and not just for cosmetic reasons.

    The Eyes Have It As people age, the tender skin on the eyelid, and just below the eye, are some of the first areas on the face to loosen and wrinkle. Many patients believe this makes them look tired and older than their age both valid reasons for having the surgery. But, for a percentage of patients, there is a legitimate medical condition which needs to be corrected, which is equally, if not more, important. This medical condition is called ptosis drooping eyelids that hang very low and block vision. Ptosis is caused by nerve damage or poor muscle tone in the eye lid. The eyelid starts to obscure the patients peripheral (side) vision, and in extreme cases, forward vision. Patients with these issues, who have this surgery, comment time and again that they feel they are opening their eyes for the first time. For many it has

    been years since they have seen correctly. The surgery can also reduce bags under the eyes and correct drooping eyelashes, which can also impair vision.

    What to Expect During a Blepharoplasty, the surgeon removes excess skin, fat and muscle from upper and/or lower eyelids. To do this, the surgeon makes an incision along the creases of the upper eyelid and, if needed, the outer lower rim; depending on need, the inci-sion may run the length of the lid. Once the incisions are made, fatty tissue, excess muscle, and skin are removed and then the incisions closed. The whole procedure takes about an hour and is considered an outpatient surgery. Blepharoplasty is usually performed under local anesthesia. When the surgery is completed, the eyes are lubricated and the patient discharged. The surgeon will prescribe an antibiotic (to ward off infection) and oral pain medication. The patient is in-structed on how to clean the eyes, lubricate them with eye drops and treat them during healing. Restrictions are few, although patients should not swim until the sutures are removed a week after the surgery. Both sun block and sunglasses will be required for several weeks. Most patients have few or no issues, although some report bruising, itchy and/or watery eyes, dry eyes, light sensitivity, swelling, blurred or double vision during the first few days. Minor scarring is also occasionally reported. To learn whether Blepharoplasty is right for you, review the checklist in the side bar; then make an appointment with an eye surgeon in your area. *American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2007

    Jason Tu, M.D.Blepharoplasty Removes the Droop That Can Block Vision

    According to the American Association for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, you may be a good candidate for an eye lift if you have any one or more of the following...

    qExcess skin obscuring the natural fold of the upper eyelids.

    qLoose skin hanging down from the upper eyelids, perhaps impairing vision.

    qA puffy appearance to the upper eyelids, making the eyes look tired.

    qExcess skin and fine, crepe paper type wrinkles of the lower eyelids.

    qBags and dark circles under the eyes.

    qLower eyelid droopiness.

    To match your needs with the right surgeon, make sure the doctor...

    qIs certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) or equivalent peer review organization, in the respective country of an international member.

    qQualifies for privileges to perform cosmetic plastic surgery in an accredited surgical facility.

    qHas experience in a wide range of cosmetic and eye care procedures.

    Its always amazing to me how the classics continue to ring true throughout the years. Not since the 1940s when swing orchestras were in vogue and couples dressed to the nines while dancing to the music, has ballroom dancing been so wildly popular. We may all remember our grandparents or parents allowing us to stand on the tops of their feet to learn the rhythm, teaching us how to cut a rug in the kitchen, or seeing them sway to the music on the old Victrola. Once again, the elders seemed to get it right! Recent studies in the New England Journal of Medicine, as well as others, have shown that even moderate ballroom dancing, once or twice weekly, will dramatically improve ones overall fitness and mental agility. As many of us worry about the potential of becoming more forgetful, and eventually suc-cumbing to dementia, there has also been much optimism. There is evidence that those who enjoy puzzles, play games, and stay mentally and physically active enjoy a lower risk of Alzheimers. We realize that physical exercise alone does not delay the onset of Alzheimers, intellectual exercise does! While it is unclear at this time, how our brains, with regular work outs, are able to postpone Alzheimers, it has been proven that you need to use it or lose it. So get out those daily crossword puzzles, use the free chess and Sudoku games on your Ipad, play solitaire on your laptop, visit a museum, read your favorite authors or magazines, play a musical instru-ment, take a language class or dance! It has been found that those who danced regu-larly displayed the lowest risk of dementia or Alzheimers! Perhaps we are challenging both memory and coordination skills, but having two left feet does not mean you can sit this one out!

    Other tips to improve your brain function: Go Mediterranean! The more colorful fruits and vegetables, as well as oily fish, like mackerel, salmon, tuna, sardines, flax-

    seed and olive oil are packed with just about every nutrient you need. Go Low GI! Eating foods that are low on the glycemic index (GI) helps release energy slowly to maintain a stable blood

    sugar (glucose) level. Low GI foods include complex carbohydrates such as whole wheat pasta, bread and brown rice, as well as vegetables. If your blood sugar falls, the side effects from the brain are obvious; feeling less alert, fuzzy, or tired.

    Keep hydrated! As we get older, we tend to drink less as our thirst diminishes. If you dehydrate, there is more chance of poor balance, confusion and memory loss.

    Exercise! A brisk walk, tennis, swimming or Tai Chi are great options, even if only for 20 minutes a day! Good conversation. Sharing a joke, or a good meal, or game of bridge can not only be fun, but good for your brain too! Hav-

    ing a strong social support network to provide emotional and intellectual stimulation, helps keep the mind sharp. Be optimistic! Naysayers, or people with untreated depression, may be twice as likely to develop dementia. Seek help if you

    lack energy, are listless, are unable to sleep, sleep too much, or if early-morning awakenings are more the routine than the exception.

    Stay active, have a good time, and save the last dance for me. GLM

    Breast Cancer is the second most common type of cancer affect-ing women in the U.S. It is second only to skin cancer. Fortunately, with ever-improving methods of detection and treatment, it is becoming one of the most curable. Even though it is estimated that during the year 2010, approximately 207,090 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, the five-year survival rate is close to 90%. Cancer is a disease that causes cells in the body to change and grow out of control. Breast cancer occurs when cells in the lobules (structures where milk is made) or, more commonly when the ducts (tubes that carry milk to the nipple) grow out of control. Unfortunately, unlike other forms of cancer, there have been no studies proving a causal relationship between environmental ex-posure to toxins and the development of breast cancer. So, rather than focusing on prevention, the focus has been on early detection. But thanks to the improvements in technology and the increase in awareness, early detection is becoming easier and the survival rate is constantly increasing. Early detection consists of a three-pronged approach designed to detect breast cancers as early as possible. The first prong is monthly Breast Self Examination (BSE). It is an easy self exam, and instructions for performing it can be found on the American Cancer Societys website, www.cancer.org. The second prong consists of a yearly breast examination by a trained health care professional. This is to detect any cancers which may not show up with regular diagnostic studies. It has been estimated that mammograms do not detect approximately 10% of breast cancers, but these can still be diagnosed early when discov-ered by your doctor. The third prong is yearly mammograms. Although recommen-dations for years have been to get ones first mammogram at age 40, with subsequent yearly mammograms, a recent release by the United States Preventative Services Task Force has recommended instead that women should get yearly mammograms starting at

    age 50. However, there have not been any subsequent studies agreeing with their recommendations, and most physicians have been abiding by the traditional recommendations. Mammography is a very important tool in the early diag-nosis of breast cancer, as some studies have reported a cure rate of over 95% for cancers and pre-cancers detected by mammogram alone, as opposed to only a 75% cure rate for cancers and pre-cancers that were not detected until they were palpable (able to be detected by feeling a lump). Depending on a patients risk factors, as well as other symptoms, other studies have been used in the detection and treatment of breast cancer, such as ultrasound (sonogram), MRI, and PET/CT scans. Once an abnormality is found, either with palpation or diag-nostic studies, biopsy is necessary for tissue diagnosis. There are many new minimally invasive ways to obtain breast tissue for diagnosis, focusing on decreasing patient discomfort while maintaining a high level of accuracy. These include stereotac-tic biopsy, sono-guided needle biopsy, and fine needle aspira-tion. Fortunately, approximately 90% of these biopsies usually result in a benign (or non-cancerous) final diagnosis. Once a diagnosis of cancer is made, it can be a very stress-ful time for the patient. The care of the breast cancer patient has evolved into a more holistic approach, providing support through this trying period in their lives. A multi-specialty game plan is developed for each patient, and may involve surgery, radiation, or chemotherapeutic agents. With the co-ordination of multiple health professionals, the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer has become much more efficient, much less unpleasant, and much more successful. GLM

    Dream Car 2010

  • 28 Grand Living Magazine

    Dream Car 2010 Maybe its how a well tuned engine releases that throaty roar when the gas pedal is pressed, or simply the way the sun reflects on chrome. So many people catch the car bug at an early age. Some work their entire life for the luxury of owning a particular model. Diehards collect vehicles like baseball cards. For some, its a reflection of how far they have come. Others find joy in just hitting the open road in the ride of their dreams. To inspire us all to fulfill our dreams, we present Dream Car 2010.

    The Porsche 911 is the essence of Porsche. The longest running sports car in production, the Porsche was destined for success from its inception. The 1979 Porsche 911SC is considered to be the most reliable model ever made. It sports a 3.0 liter, engine and a Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection, with a five speed 915 transmission. Of the 40 to 50 cars Dave Evans has owned over the years, his favorite has to be his 1979 Porsche 911SC Targa. He purchased this very rare hellblau blue car in 1999, and its one he just has never been able to part with. I get at least two offers a month to buy this car, it has such eye appeal, says Dave. But, I really enjoy it. The Targa roof is not often seen these days, and its just so much fun to drive, particularly in the warm weather. My wife and I love to take it out for a cruise. Shes been very supportive over the years of my car habit. Ive had many Porsche, but now that we are retired here in Bethany, I just have the two; this Porsche and a 2003, that I purchased just because I like it.

    Bob Hammond and his 2009 Bentley GTC Convertible We all work hard most of our lives, and we deserve to treat ourselves once in awhile. For Bob Hammond, his 50th birthday was just that occasion. Bobs vehicle of choice, the luxurious 2009 Bentley GTC Convertible, in Silver Tempest. Truly luxurious in every way, the British supercar convertible sports a hand-stitched leather interior, and a ride so smooth, you could easily enjoy a beverage without risk of spill. Although the odometer can reach 200 mph, Hammond tells Grand Living Magazine he drives it for the luxury and has never tested its limits. Im so happy to have this car, says Hammond. It makes my old Mercedes 550SL seem like a Ford Ranger. Bob drives his car most every day to and from his place of business, Atlantic Physical Therapy in Ocean Pines. Hammond expects quality in every aspect of his life, and its reflected not only in his business locations across Delmarva, but in the standard of car he drives. Upon a closer look, the rearview mirror reveals a more personal side of Bob, as his Rosary reminds him of his roots and how he reached this point in his life. Bob is active in the community and has been the proud sponsor of Stephen Decaturs Tough Kid Award for the last 11 years. Bobs Bentley is also the focus of the 2010 Dream Car Contest revealed on page 7.

    The Sp

    orting

    Life

    Weve all known the kid that takes things apart to see how they work. Often it doesnt quite go back together the same, if at all. But there is real magic in the boy that takes it apart and puts it back together, and then finds it performs even better. There is a spark, and ignition of a drive that just doesnt let go. When that little boy grows up with a passion for performance, and the drive to achieve new heights, you find a successful mechanic that knows no limits. Meet the men of Loaded Gun Customs: Kevin Dunworth, John Deforest, Eric Hoyle and KC McQuilkin. Kevin and John have been improving machines together for the last 12 years. From cars to motorcycles, mopeds to cigarette boats, if it has a motor, they can make it more efficient. Each member of the team brings something special to the shop. Its more than mechanical talent. They not only build their machines, but showcase and compete for honors in world class competitions. From car shows to road racing, and on levels as upscale as the Rolex cup, this team of men is so much more than grease monkeys. Their list of accomplishments boast a National Award Winning 1966 Slingshot Dragster, and a 1970 Camaro, which took Honorable Mention at the East Coast Nation-als, an invitation-only event, alongside cars built with much larger budgets. The Camaro is a hallmark of machine and cost efficiency. While their expertise is expansive, their passion is the Caf Bike. Kevin has a real love of the post-World War II machines and likes

    to integrate modern ideas with old-school philosophy. When we take on a project, we like to think outside of the box, and try new things. We have a team with a variety of talent, from handmade parts to artistic metal detail, we make it all happen right here in our shop, boasts Kevin. We live the motors-ports lifestyle, adds John. And it doesnt end when we go home. We have cars, jet skis and motorcycles there too, its who we are. Kevin even has a plywood floor in his living room, so he can take his work home. We put our heart and soul into everything we do. Sometimes you have to slice your finger, and bleed a little for the project, remarks Kevin. Each bike is a work of art, and every mem-ber of my team gives what it takes to get the job done right. Loaded Gun has completed 10 custom Caf Bikes for happy customers all over the world, right from their shop tucked here on Del-marva. They are currently working on bikes that will return to their homes in Australia and Spain. With social networking making the world such a smaller place, we get calls from all over the world. Its really exciting to think about what we can do, says Kevin. All this passion and inspiration has really taken their business to a whole new level. Not only has the business grown in name and reputation, but it has become a world leader in Caf Bike customization. They will even be a part of the upcoming series on Caf

    Bikes from Discovery Channel, which premiers in October. The series features select shops around the country that recre-ate and customize the classic rides with their own individual style.

    While the business appeals to many car and bike enthusiasts, Loaded Guns typi-cal customers are the blue collar workers with a big idea. Our customers are the people who want things done correctly and are passionate about the performance of their toys, says Kevin. The team does restoration work as well, but they like to utilize their creative talents and improve the factory model. Loaded Gun is a very people-oriented service business. The shop has an image

    that harkens post war when out in the community, allowing you to step back in time, if only for a moment, when you meet their pin-up girls. You will find them at local auto events posed alongside the shops creations. You can also find the men at many local charitable events featuring motorsports. They just love to get up close and personal with fellow enthusiasts. Look for them this fall at Bike Week Events and the Oasis Bar & Grille Fall Vintage Carn Bike Show. Be sure to tune into the Discovery Channel when the series begins October 4th. GLM

    Ever thought of your car as part of the family? Harry and Cheryl Hoke have. Theyve had so much fun with their 1967, 427 red Shelby Cobra in the last few years, they cant imagine the excitement they would miss without it. Sporting a 351 cubic inch engine, this fun car has even been the honored guest at its own birthday party. Its also been the focal point of several cook-outs and family events. Some people have a boat,says Cheryl. We have a Shelby Cobra. The first time Harry saw a Cobra was in the sixties in high school. He thought it was the coolest car he had ever seen. I still think it is; and since I cant afford the six to seven digit price for an original, I have a replica, says Harry. The timeless design and styling of the car draws smiles

    and waves from little kids, and little old ladies too. I read in a magazine, one time, a perfect description of the attraction that this car has for me. It said, Theres nothing nice about a Cobra. Its stripped down to the essentialsa big engine, a small car and four wide tires. You just try to keep the whole business on the pavement. Its loud, smells like gasoline, shakes, shudders, and bucks. It makes your arms tired and your feet hot. You nearly crash about once every 10 minutes, and yet its so darn wonderful that you cant believe it. Harry thought he would never have the opportunity to have his own Cobra, until his wifes inheritance provided the financial means to his dream. I cant believe she bought this for me. I really owe her. But we enjoy it together, and its so much fun. It was an amazing gift, says Harry. Shes the best!

  • From distinctive owners to hallmark competitions, the value and passion of owning an old motorcycle is all in the history to Pino Tomasello. His Italian heritage has ignited a fire for preserving the craftsmanship of vintage motorcycles. Pino has been collecting for over 20 years, purchasing his first motorcycle at the age of 16. His current collection sports a very impressive group of bikes. Many of the motorcycles are rarely seen stateside, and some are among the only few remaining models in the world. Pino recognizes the potential in old motorcycles and cars that have been abandoned for newer models. Rarity is special to me, says Pino. My Ferrari 1959 250cc is one of three in the world. Its fully restored and a true masterpiece, because of its very unique build. His 1961 Maserati 175cc is another favorite, as is his 1972 Agusta MV 350cc. The Agusta has sentimental value, having belonged to a well-known Italian

There is also a 1973 Ducati 450cc in the collection. When Pino purchased the Ducati, it was in very poor condition. Pino tell us that, Part of the attraction for me is the joy in restoring the bikes to their original glory. My motorcycles and cars are a real source of enjoyment for me. Some are street legal, and I enjoy taking them out on a nice day. Others are just to enjoy when I need to get away from the day-to-day stress of the world. Pino also enjoys sharing his collection at a variety of automo-tive shows.

  • The Racing Collection of Dave McQuilkin

  • Grand Living Magazine 35

    Dave McQuilkin has had a love for cars and motorcycles since junior high school, and its a passion that just continues to grow. His collection itself is vast and includes not only cars, but numerous racing bikes from his career, as a Superbike competitor. Now retired from racing, he keeps his bikes for sentimental value and to enjoy with other avid collectors. Dave also sponsors young racers in their quest and enjoyment of the sport. The collection of bikes alone sports rare specimens not only because of their name, but because of their customization. Daves fond-ness for each bike is individual. The time spent with the vehicles allows him to get away from the day-to-day stresses of life. Dave loves to share his collection at motorsports event. I love to talk to the kids, and let them see the cars up close, and instill my love of cars in them. Its really a family affair for us. My wife, children, and even my two grandchildren attend events with me. Its just great that they share my enthusiasm. The motorsports community here on Delmarva has opened its arms to me. In a few years I plan to retire here and just enjoy the shore and motorsports. Grand Living had the opportunity to explore Daves amazing collection and have selected a few models to share with you here:1966 Slingshot Dragster is a real Friday night racer. This car was clocked in the mid 7s (approximately 7.5 seconds) in the quarter mile. Its an Ultimate Hot Rod Winner and known nationally in the drag racing world. The machine sports an image that many women can relate to, aptly titled, The Other Women. Dave tells us, his wife often referred to his cars as such, and so the dragster bears the sentiment. This unique auto even garnered an invitation to the East Coast Nationals.

    1970 Camaro This exotic drag racer/street cruiser can run the mile in less than ten seconds. Although this car no longer races, Daves dream was to build a car that was meticulously correct for speed. The Camaro even boasts a tubed design to accommodate the large tires, while maintaining the center of gravity for speed. This vehicle was also privileged to be invited to the East Coast Nationals. Other vehicles in the stable include a 1998 Camaro SLT. While this car is a true road racer, its also a show piece. Only leaving the protection of storage for OC Cruising and car shows, this car was built to drive and enjoy.

    Art takes many forms and is often in the eye of the beholder. The mind quickly goes to Picasso or Renoir when you mention fine art, but to Bulldog, art has four wheels. When I was little, I use to go to work with my dad, who was a mechanic, just to sit in the cars, says Bulldog. I have always been a car fanatic. My first car was a 1970 Plymouth Fury III, a hand-me-down from Dad. His first purchase, a 1982 Mustang GT 5.0 (real American Muscle) his first passion. That Mustang was so perfect; it made the cover of Mustang Monthly. He sold it for $17,000. That same car later re-sold for $75,000. Bulldog has always seen a car as an investment, just like art. However, he drives everything he buys and Bulldog has never made a purchase to impress the neighbors. He makes his purchases strictly on his desire to have that particular car in his stable. The buying process is so much fun, says Bulldog, Its not just about the car, but the search for the car, that is intriguing. Its a true passion. Im always looking for my next car. Ive owned many cars over the years, but my favorite has to be my 1983 Ferrari 308GTSi purchased in 1988. I wanted a Ferrari for years, and I have always seen it as my Dream Car. I bought the car to drive and enjoy. I have so many wonderful memories in that car. My wife and I have been so many places in it, and my son learned to drive a stick in that car. I would love to hand it down to him one day. Bulldogs infatuation with the Ferrari took another jump forward when he first saw the Testarossa in 1990. It took 10 years to find the perfect one, and in 2009, deep in Texas, a black 1992, 512TR was added to his collection. Im just a true car guy, says Bulldog. Youll never see me in a dirty car. I could easily spend a Sunday afternoon just washing my cars and enjoying my collection.
