The front entrance to New Hope Baptist Church, Lincolnton, Georgia. By Tom Poland, A Southern WriterTomPoland.net For the first time in my life I was alone in my church. The old Regulator wall clock ticked away as I ticked away the families who had walked through their last door. Ivys, Williams, Wells, Partridges, Flemings, Bradfords, Guillebeau, Hawes, Ashmore, others still, and my family, who always sat in the third pew on the right from the back....

By Radley West When GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy first hit the market, I’ll be honest—I was skeptical. As a health and fitness professional with over 16 years of experience helping people build stronger, healthier lives, I’ve seen plenty of so-called “miracle” weight loss solutions come and go. Most overpromise, underdeliver, and leave people discouraged. At first glance, GLP-1s felt like just another shortcut....

By Jennifer Tardy Even the most perfect nutrition plan can fall flat if your body is stuck in fight-or-flight mode. When you’re constantly in survival mode, your body doesn’t prioritize healing—it holds on to fat, suppresses digestion, and throws hormones out of balance. That’s why nervous system regulation is a key part of my holistic health programs. When we help the body feel safe, true healing becomes possible....

By Thomas Grant Jr. The Cayce/West Columbia region remains home for one of the Palmetto State’s 7-0 teams. Swansea defeated W.J. Keenan 31-22 to match its best start in 2012 under former Gilbert head coach Chad Leaphart. It was also the Region 4-3A opener for the Tigers, who are tied with another unbeaten Newberry for first place. After trailing 8-0 in the first quarter, Swansea scored 23 unanswered points....

By Thomas Grant Jr. Can lightning strike twice at Red Bank? It’s what White Knoll hopes to accomplish this Friday at home. On Oct. 6, 2023, the Timberwolves defeated Dutch Fork 17-14.
