Rec alternatives accomplish same goal
For several months I have followed the debate about a new YMCA in Camden. To date, however, only City Council and the director of the YMCA in Columbia have formulated a plan to build and operate a new facility here. There are possible alternatives. Therefore, I am proposing the following as a means to accomplish the same objective:
What the world needs now
WASHINGTON -- On perfectly beautiful days such as these, it is impossible to conceive of conflict.
Yesteryear -- Nov. 2, 2011
Photo cutline -- Preparing For Open House -- Barbara Kelly, Donnie McLeod, and Hughie Brown prepare copies of their schedules for their parents to follow during Open House at Camden Junior High School.

Ronald Blanding
Funeral service for Ronald Blanding, 63, of Scott Street in Camden, will be held Friday, Nov. 4, at 11 a.m. at Gordon Street Church of God, 1707 Gordon St., Camden, with burial in Fort Jackson National Cemetery. Friends may visit at 1216 Belton Court.
Herman Cain
There is little pressure that can rival the heat of a presidential campaign, and Herman Cain isn't doing the greatest job of dealing with the scrutiny aimed at White House hopefuls. Cain has great appeal -- he's a plain-spoken guy who doesn't apologize for his positions, he has a concept that would radically change the country's impossibly complicated tax system and he retains a certain populist position that is playing well with many voters during these turbulent economic times. Cain, a virtual unknown only a few months ago, is running neck-and-neck with Mitt Romney in Republican polls.
Focusing on the Fed
"I'd prop him up and put a pair of dark glasses on him and keep him as long as I could."
Vera Q. Stokes
Vera Q. Stokes, 80, of Richmond Va., passed away on Oct 1, 2011.

David Weaver Sr. will officiate. The family will receive friends Wednesday 6-8 p.m. at Powers Funeral Home, Lugoff. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Lyttleton Street United Methodist Church, Lutheran Hospice or the Alzheimer's Association.
