TODAY'S
FOCUS
Maintaining
good health can be good for your business
By
DR. MICKEY BARBER
CEO and Chief Medical Officer, Cenegenics Carolinas
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
APRIL
30, 2009 -- With daily news of layoffs, cutbacks and shrinking budgets,
it's no wonder business people feel stressed and overwhelmed. A
typical reaction is to work harder, sacrificing personal health
and wellness to simply keep the company afloat or stay employed.

Barber
|
But
business people need to realize their personal health and wellness
can have a direct impact on their business success. While it might
be tempting to skip that morning workout so you can get to the office
an hour early, it's simply a bad business decision. You have to
look at your health as a business investment that is just as important
as monetary investments and financial decisions.
So
many professionals in Charleston are neglecting their health - not
exercising, eating poorly, not getting enough sleep or suffering
an imbalance of hormones, as many people over 45 do. Such issues
are not conducive to the clear thinking, high energy and productivity
that it takes to be successful.
Regardless
of how full my schedule is or how long my daily to-do list is, I
am at the gym every morning. It's the most important appointment
of my day. You might think appointments with my patients or potential
patients would trump a morning workout session, but by focusing
on my own health I am able to better help my patients improve their
health. I have the energy and focus to get through the day because
I devoted the necessary attention to my physical fitness and wellness.
YOUR
HEALTH, YOUR BUSINESS
What:
"Being at the Top of Your Game: Why Good Health is
Just Good Business."
When and where: 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. May 7, Coco's
Café, 863 Houston Northcutt Blvd. (Whole Foods Shopping
Center), Mount Pleasant.
Details:
Dr. Mickey Barber, CEO of Cenegenics Carolinas, will give
tips about how to improve your health for business. Food
and beverages will be available, and the business that brings
the most employees will receive a free yoga class at its
office courtesy of Eco Health & Wellness.
Cost:
$15 per person. Register by May 1 by calling 577-8484.

Being
in good health allows business people to not only survive but thrive
and get a leg up on the competition, particularly in this competitive
job market and business climate. Even baby boomers who were looking
forward to retirement in a few years are realizing they will be
extending their time in the work force after seeing their investments
cut in half in recent months. That means they will have to be in
tiptop shape for the next five, 10 or even 15 years. It becomes
critical to be energetic, vital, look good, feel good and avoid
any disease that might slow us down or keep us out of work.
Your
first priority should be to make a commitment to your health, realizing
good health is truly good business. Next, work with a physician
who is focused on health and wellness to create a plan that fits
your health needs and your lifestyle. Once that plan is in place,
think of it as part of the strategic plan for your business and
recognize its importance.
At
Cenegenics Carolinas, our mission is to work closely with patients
to assess their current physical and medical health and then craft
an individualized nutrition and exercise plan that will improve
their health, work within their lifestyle and add vigor and energy
to their daily lives.
I
feel strongly about this topic and want to encourage our local business
community to make health a priority. I'm inviting business people
to join me for "Being at the Top of Your Game: Why Good Health
is Just Good Business" on May 7 at Coco's Café in Mount
Pleasant (see the box with this article for details). I'll be sharing
some proven tips for how attendees can improve their health - tips
that will translate into real business success.
Dr. Mickey
Barber is the CEO and chief medical officer for Cenegenics Carolinas,
a Charleston-based medical institute that helps patients manage
the aging process through a customized regimen of exercise, nutrition
and hormone optimization. Certified in age management medicine,

Age
spots: Compare your youthful mindset to Class of '09
By
ANN THRASH, editor
APRIL
30, 2009 -- You know you're getting old when you find yourself arguing
with your spouse about which of you is going to give new sod for
the front yard to the other as a birthday present. My husband and
I both have birthdays next month, and we actually had that little
tiff a few days ago. Since his birthday comes first, I guess I win.
Or maybe lose.

Thrash
|
It
wasn't the first time that I've felt a little creaky in the past
few weeks. During a recent physical therapy appointment to try to
remedy my "frozen shoulder" (another middle-age affliction),
it wasn't the fact that I was having physical therapy that made
me feel old. It was the fact that the therapist, a sweet young lady
in her early to mid-30s, told me that SHE felt old because
neither of the other two people on staff remembered ever having
"a record player." Sigh. Come gather around the rocking
chair, kids, while Granny here tells you about 8-track tapes.
Then
there was comedian Jeff Foxworthy (the "You might be a redneck
if
" guy), who on TV the other day said he knew he was
getting old when somebody broke into his car and only stole two
of his CDs. He said he found himself frantically searching through
the CDs left behind, asking, "Where's The Best of Bread? Where's
The Best of Bread?"
Since
misery (that would be me) loves company (that would be you), join
me in feeling a little older today by checking out "The Mindset
List" for the Class of 2009. Compiled annually by administrators
at Beloit College, the list is given to faculty members to remind
them how different the world has been for that year's incoming freshman
class than it was for the faculty themselves when they were younger.
Here's an interesting, sometimes wince-inducing look at what daily
life has been like for the Class of 2009; for the full list, go
here.
- Most
of the Class of 2009 was born in 1987.
- Andy
Warhol, Liberace, Jackie Gleason and Lee Marvin have always been
dead.
- They
don't remember when "cut and paste" involved scissors.
- Pay-Per-View
television has always been an option.
- They
never had the fun of being thrown into the back of a station wagon
with six others.
-
Iran and Iraq have never been at war with each other.
- Jimmy
Swaggart and Jim Bakker have never preached on television.
- Voice
mail has always been available.
- The
federal budget has always been more than a trillion dollars.
- Condoms
have always been advertised on television.
- They
have always had the right to burn the flag.
- For
daily caffeine emergencies, Starbucks has always been around the
corner.
- Money
put in their savings account the year they were born earned almost
7 percent interest.
- Pixar
has always existed.
- They
have grown up in a single-superpower world.
- They
do not remember "a kinder and gentler nation."
- They
never saw the shuttle Challenger fly.
- They
never saw Pat Sajak or Arsenio Hall host a late-night television
show.
- Digital
cameras have always existed.
- Tom
Landry never coached the Cowboys.
- CNBC
has always been on the air.
- Jimmy
Carter has always been an elder statesman.
- "America's
Funniest Home Videos" has always been on television.
- Aretha
Franklin has always been in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

FEEDBACK
Time
to solve discriminatory practice in housing market
To
the editor:
Andy
Brack's article
on mortgage disparities in the Charleston community was interesting
not only because of the substance but because it tickled a personal
memory as well. Sixteen years ago, in an earlier life, I incorporated
and provided legal advice to a start-up nonprofit corporation, the
National Community Reinvestment Coalition. Now, I see that its extensive
research enables us to focus on a persistent discriminatory practice
in the residential housing market that keeps us living in silos.
It is time not just to look at the problem but actually to do something
about it.

HISTORY
SPOTLIGHT
Ocean Forest
Hotel
Myrtle
Beach's magnificent Ocean Forest Hotel opened formally on Friday
evening, February 21, 1930. The hotel, standing twenty-nine feet
above sea level, with a ten-story wedding-cake tower flanked by
two five-story wings, was South Carolina's Statue of Liberty.
Together
with its gardens, pools, and stables, the hotel occupied thirteen
acres. Amenities such as marble stairways, Czechoslovakian crystal
chandeliers, Grecian columns, faucets that dispensed salt water
to the 202 ventilated bathrooms, oriental rugs in the marble-floored
lobby, the grand ballroom, and dining room all attested to the Ocean
Forest's inclusion among an exclusive list of world-class hotels.
High standards of etiquette were the rule. Gentlemen never entered
the dining room without wearing tuxedos. Ladies wore evening gowns.
By
the 1940s and 1950s patrons had altered their lifestyles, and the
Ocean Forest Hotel changed with the times. "Resort attire"
was accepted, and in the late 1940s Governor Strom Thurmond played
volleyball in his swim trunks.
During
the 1960s the owners of the hotel declined to make much-needed improvements.
The Ocean Forest showed signs of neglect. The hotel closed its doors
in June 1974. On Friday the thirteenth of September 1974, explosives
were placed around the hotel. The ten-story building that had taken
a year and a half to build was reduced to a pile of rubble in six
seconds.
The
author Mickey Spillane said, "The Ocean Forest Hotel was a
beautiful piece of architecture, and for down here it was actually
superb." Thurmond recalled the hotel's "wonderful hospitality,
and I consider the visits I made there some of the happiest and
most enjoyable trips I have taken."
