The State - Shortening the ninth hole on Timberlake’s course to put in a new clubhouse is a “par-fect” swap, golfers say.“It’s great,” said George Duke, a frequent player who is one of the course’s new owners. “We’re busting our humps to make this work.”Duke is among nearly 300 homeowners in the area near Chapin who bought the course May 1 to save it from development.The 14,000-square-foot clubhouse — a dream since the course opened 21 years ago — is the next move in making the takeover pay off.“It’s a giant step forward,” club president J.B.

Military to speed up site cleanup
Found: 3 Weeks 3 Days 12 Hours 57 Minutes ago
The Sun News - The military likely will spend a little more money to shave five years off the projected cleanup time for groundwater contamination at a site on and near the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, according to a plan outlined Tuesday for the facility's Restoration Advisory Board.That news comes less than two months after some residents complained during a public hearing that the military was putting finances ahead of health concerns at the site, known as the Old Entomology Shop.The military has proposed two cleanup plans for the area, which sits near the border of the base along Emory Road. In July, the military said it probably would proceed with a 12-year plan costing $723,000. An alternate plan would take seven years and cost $1.1 million....

Found: 3 Weeks 6 Days 3 Hours 51 Minutes ago

Later this week Skimmer has to take a Russian student who has been living with her family back to Charlotte to catch a plane home....

Found: 4 Weeks 9 Hours 35 Minutes ago
The State - Pipeline shutdown affecting MidlandsThe Midlands is running low on gasoline.Hurricane Ike tore through the heart of Texas refinery country Saturday, forcing the shutdown of the major pipeline that provides much of the Columbia area’s gas. That has lead to shortages at many stations and nearly emptied the region’s storage gas terminals.Although the pipeline is expected to begin operating today or Monday, there is no date for when deliveries could resume. As a result, drivers could struggle to find gas for several days, said Michael Fields, executive director for the S.C. Petroleum Marketers Association.“Clearly, we’re going to have to make changes as a society and a community (this week),” he said. That could include carpooling and running fewer errands....
