Listen in as we catch up with Ron Sullivan and explore the latest enhancements of his innovative Pro Tips Golf app, designed to bring golfers the local knowledge they need on the course. Ron details the app's new features, such as live chat, which lets players communicate in real-time, and audio tips from golf pros and general managers that guide shot selection and course navigation. Sharing a personal story, we highlight the difference this kind of insider advice can make, especially when tackling unfamiliar terrain. The app's evolution not only aids in improving gameplay but also cultivates a sense of community among golf enthusiasts. In our discussion, we also look at the broader aspects of enjoying golf, emphasizing the importance of expert advice and how it can be turned into accessible audio clips. These tips come from various golf course personnel and are aimed at enhancing both skill level and pace of play. I share insights into the simple joy of golfing with friends, the setting of personal challenges, and the strategic choice to save your best swings for the game, not practice. Ron Sullivan from Pro Tips Golf joins the conversation, shedding light on how these elements merge to uplift the golfing experience for players of all skill sets. Wrapping up, the conversation shifts to the integral role golf plays in forging and strengthening relationships, using the backdrop of the Myrtle Beach Classic and the famed Kiawah Island's Ocean Course to discuss the game's social and business benefits. From humorous tales on links-style courses to the candid revelation of one's character during a round, we cover the gamut of golf's influence. Top Golf Instructor Jeff Smith chimes in, sharing his expertise on local course knowledge and how it's akin to having a caddy.

Just like we all predicted, Donald Trump has emerged triumphant over Nikki Haley in her native state of South Carolina, skillfully narrowing Haley's slender chance at the nomination. The voters of the Palmetto State, known for their knack of electing the party's final candidate, placed Trump in an advantageous position to secure the Republican nomination well ahead of the summer convention in Milwaukee. Trump's campaign has been successfully cruising through the initial voting states, securing pronounced victories and delegates in Iowa, New Hampshire, and Nevada. Haley, who once served under Trump's administration as the ambassador to the United Nations, suffered a hardened blow with this defeat in her home state. This loss has shifted the nomination even further away from the grasp of Haley, notwithstanding her campaign's dogged resolution to continue pressing forward. Amid these challenging times, Haley's campaign proclaimed plans of a substantial national cable and digital buy ahead of the anticipated Super Tuesday on 5 March. Haley is also plainspeaking on her campaign commitment, organizing a rally in Michigan on the following Sunday, which is slated to hold its primary on 27 February. As part of her indefatigable persistence, Haley is venturing on a marathon journey through several other potential Super Tuesday states. Her firm stance against withdrawing from the race has sparked annoyance among Trump and his supporters. Critics of Haley's continue, insisting that she is fighting a losing battle, comparing her to David locked in a battle with Goliath. They accuse her of depending heavily on affluent benefactors to uphold her campaign, undermining the imminent and probable outcome. Yet despite the grand opposition, Haley's followers staunchly defend her participation in the race, viewing her as a symbol of the potential future shape of the Republican party. Admirers of Haley, who is 52, surmise she may be meticulously preparing for a future prospective presidential run. In an extraordinary case where Trump could no longer represent the party as its nominee, Haley seems to be positioning herself as the next logical choice. This theoretical opportunity arises amid Trump facing from an onslaught of 91 felony charges, in addition to increasing legal expenses and looming financial penalties. In an ironic turn of events, Trump has been resorting to his campaign fund to mitigate these financial liabilities. Haley, during her public appearances, reminds voters that it is anomalous for a candidate to be dedicating more time to legalities than campaigning. She voices her concerns over a candidate using contributors' funds to handle their legal obligations. However, Trump's legal adversities, originating in part from claims of attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential elections results and his perceived part in the storming of the US Capitol on 6 January, have paradoxically consolidate his supporter base. In a testament to his confidence, Trump's campaign has already begun to shift focus towards the general election against Joe Biden, who appears to be set for his party's nomination, unhampered by serious primary competition. In an assertive move, Trump's team has been actively asserting control over the Republican National Committee, which is expected to remain unbiased during the primary. The day, filled with political tension, was kicked off by Trump in Washington, where he delivered a stirring speech at the influential Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) before returning to South Carolina for a revelatory election-night watch party in Columbia, the state capital. Earlier on the same day, Haley participated in her civic responsibility of casting her ballot on Kiawah Island, the precinct she calls home. As the day drew near its conclusion, her 'Beast of the Southeast' bus tour made a pit stop in Charleston. The evening was scheduled to conclude with Haley delivering remarks at an election night watch party, a fitting end to a pivotal day.

REVIEW: Biden to visit Charleston's Mother Emanuel AME Church 'Why?' asked Duke Buckner, a candidate for SC's 6th US Congressional District:''On Monday, President Biden is scheduled to be at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston. This is the church where nine parishioners were murdered during a bible study in 2015. The last reported time President Biden was in South Carolina was in the summer of 2022 when he was vacationing on luxurious Kiawah Island. Now, less than a year before the 2024 presidential election, he will be visiting a historic Black church in Charleston. Why?'Take a listen to more and click here for the full print context of Buckner's published review:'It is my sincere hope that President Biden will speak at the church about reconciliation and healing; the love of God and how we should love our neighbor as ourself. I hope he will talk about how we can come together as Americans and not allow ourselves to be divided by race, gender, political or socio-economic lines. He should not disrespect or dishonor the Church or its members by making offensive racist comments like he did at the Congressional Black Caucus dinner last year where he called famed Hip Hop Artist LL Cool J a “Boy”.'Special thanks to Disaster Plus for powering this #BigFailFriday edition of the Kelly Golden Show Podcast

We wholeheartedly believe that a well-designed home not only reflects your personal style but also has a significant financial impact on its sale or rental value. That's why we wanted to share an insightful interview with Kathleen DeWitt, a renowned real estate agent from Charleston, who sheds light on the importance of good design in the local real estate market. In our conversation with Kathleen, she emphasizes how an aesthetically appealing home can truly make a difference when it comes to attracting potential buyers or tenants. She discusses the positive impacts of thoughtful design choices and how they can set your property apart from the competition.   KEY TAKEAWAYS: A professionally designed home can help a property be more marketable, sell faster and you get your money two-fold in return. If something is very well done, a homeowner doesn't need to panic on how it will present itself. You don't have to do “vanilla” and worry that a future homeowner won't like it. Don't be afraid of navy-blue cabinets or wallpaper. A designer can come into a home that is already furnished and can make edits with a space plan, removing or adding objects and give it a special “flare” that just makes it show better!   RESOURCE LINKS: Kandrac & Kole Website Kandrac & Kole on Instagram Kandrac & Kole on YouTube   BIO:  Kandrac & Kole was voted one of Atlanta's Top 20 Residential Interior Designs by the Atlanta Business Chronicle and has been featured on HGTV as well as in The New York Times, Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles, Better Homes & Gardens, Southern Home Magazine, and many others as well as participants of the One Room Challenge Spring 2020. Kandrac & Kole has established a well-known reputation for their approachable, dynamic personalities, signature use of color and pattern, and one-of-a-kind, custom designs. As industry experts for residential and commercial design, Joann Kandrac & Kelly Kole share upbeat and entertaining narratives regarding their design projects, travels, and personal stories on their popular blog, their podcast, and via national speaking engagements. Joann and Kelly's love and commitment to the power of interior design also extends towards their charity work throughout the U.S. and Guatemala.

You used to dream about where you are right now.” - Helen Keller

Some names are synonymous with the Ryder Cup and on the European side Bernard Gallacher is one. Eight times a player and three times a Captain, Gallacher oversaw a time of great change in the matches from before European players became part of the team to the height of hostilities at Kiawah Island in 1991. His chat here with The Thing About Golf host John Huggan is as compelling as you would expect and the understated Gallacher reveals more than one story that has never been told before.

College golf in Virginia doesn't stop with the Commonwealth's Division I schools. In this episode, we chat with VSGA members Robb Kinder and Alex Price, who have helped elevate Christopher Newport University into the second-ranked Division III team in the country. The duo will participate in next week's DIII championship before heading south to Kiawah Island for the U.S. Amateur Four-Ball. Chris Lang speaks with the pair about how they got to CNU and their hopes of leading the Captains to a national championship, among other topics.

From Town Council Member Michael Heidingsfelder (mheidingsfelder@kiawahisland.org): Our family first visited Kiawah Island in 1999 and instantly fell in love with its nature, beach, and relaxing setting. We purchased our home in 2004 and moved here full-time in 2015. We love this island, as do our children, who come here as often as they can.My Master's education in Engineering and Business Administration prepared me well for my roles as COO and CEO with large private and public cooperations in the consulting, automotive, and instrumentation industries. Building companies from the ground up and enhancing the professionalism of organizations to be best prepared for the challenges in their businesses, improving customer satisfaction and leading them to financial stability have been at the core of my career. These always global business responsibilities have taken me frequently to many countries and cultures worldwide. But whenever I passed the first gate, I was home.Several years ago, I started to engage in matters important to this island. First with ongoing service to the Lowcountry Foodbank and then as a member of the TOKI Noise Ordinance Workgroup. Earlier this year, I was appointed to the TOKI Planning Commission. This involvement made me realize that we as a joint community – with all stakeholders from residents and property owners to TOKI and KICA, the ARB, the Partners, and the Resort – need to develop a thoughtful and comprehensive vision for the future of our island. Foremost, to answer the remaining questions: How do we as a community want to be recognized 10+ years from now? What do we not want to look like in a few years?We have seen positive development in the past. Still, today we are facing challenges triggered by both man and nature: There is an increasing concern in the community about over-development, rising traffic, the impact of a changing environment and rising sea levels, not always transparent decisionmaking processes, a gap in communication about important matters to the community and – unfortunately – sometimes a lack of civil cooperation among certain stakeholders. I believe that our joint community wants a meaningful and transparent resolution of these challenges without harming our neighborhoods and the island envisioned as a perfect synergy between nature and modern life.I promise to the community that I will do my best to help preserve, protect and enhance life on Kiawah and foster collaboration between the community and our governance.

Bobcat Guardian (Linked here)From Town Council Member Bradley D. Belt (bbelt@kiawahisland.org): Along with our four-legged girl, Folly, Laura and I live in the RiverView neighborhood. After visiting over the years, we bought a home in 2019, intending to split our time between Washington, DC, and Kiawah. During the pandemic, we realized how much we enjoyed life here and decided to make Kiawah our permanent home, becoming full-time residents in 2020.Before semi-retiring a year ago, I had spent the last decade and a half in executive roles with asset management and investment banking firms. Prior to that, I had been privileged to serve in the Administration of President George W. Bush as the head of the agency responsible for overseeing and ensuring private sector pension plans. I've had leadership roles with two “think tanks,” and early in my career, I served in senior counsel roles at the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs.Throughout my career, I have served on the fiduciary or advisory boards of various companies, nonprofit organizations, and professional associations. Currently, I serve on the executive board of a private equity firm and the board of UNICEF USA (Mid- Atlantic). My previous service includes a Presidential appointment to the Social Security Advisory Board and the Board of Trustees of the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation, as well as several private companies and organizations On Kiawah, I am on the board of the RiverView POA and was one of the founders of PreserveKiawah.In many respects, we are at an inflection point for life on and around Kiawah Island. We are nearing the end of growth on Kiawah but aren't there yet. And there is going to be substantial additional development and growth off Island. This growth has profound implications for our physical infrastructure, fragile natural ecosystem, and quality of life on and around Kiawah. I believe that the Town of Kiawah needs to play a leadership role in addressing the challenges we face, and we can best do so by engaging the community and working collaboratively with all stakeholders

Three-time major champion Padraig Harrington joins us and reminds us that there may be nobody better to talk golf with than him. We covered everything from his burgeoning PGA Tour Champions career to his run at the 2021 PGA Championship at Kiawah Island and much more.

The South Carolina Legislative Act 369 created the St. Johns Fire District in April of 1959. The District is comprised of four barrier islands covering a land mass of approximately 185 square miles. These islands are Johns, Kiawah, Seabrook and Wadmalaw.The St. Johns Fire District is governed by a nine member commission which is appointed by the Governor based on recommendations by Charleston County Council. Each of the four islands has representation on the commission which participates in monthly commission meetings and other functions as necessary.The St. Johns Fire District currently has seven fully staffed fire stations. There are three stations located on Johns Island, two stations located on Kiawah Island, one station located on Seabrook Island and one station located on Wadmalaw Island. The district has seven front line pumper/tankers, two aerial apparatus, one rescue apparatus and one tender. The St. Johns Fire District currently employs 145 personnel of which 129 are fire suppression certified. The district also maintains its own maintenance division with three personnel and an administrative staff with five personnel. The St. Johns Fire District utilizes a three shift rotation providing emergency services twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. Minimum daily staffing is thirty five fire suppression rated personnel and one Battalion Chief to perform all emergency services and maintain the daily operations through the district. An officer is assigned to each fire station to manage the operation throughout the day. The St. Johns Fire District is made up of a group of dedicated men and women striving to improve the level of life and fire safety to the residents and guests of our community and is constantly seeking ways to improve on the standards set forth by the Federal, State and local Governments as well as National Consensus Standards.

Kiawah's Director of Golf Brian Gerard meets with us to discuss the upcoming Friars trip to Kiawah Island, South Carolina. Brian provides us with some great major championship stories and helps explain what makes Kiawah so special.

Ten people will compete for three positions on the Clovis City Council in November, nine of them fresh faces to local government in the county's second-largest city. According to an estimate in San Francisco 's Point-in-Time Count , as many as 20,000 residents will experience homelessness at some point in 2022 — an astonishing number in a city with just more than 800,000 residents. If that estimate is correct, nearly 2.5 percent of San Franciscans will be homeless at some point this year.The latest COVID-19 variant has been identified by the Fresno County Department of Public Health. After spending much of his summer vacation on Kiawah Island, South Carolina, President Biden is heading back to his multimillion-dollar beach house in his home state of Delaware, where he's building a taxpayer-funded security fence at a cost that's ballooned to nearly $500,000.

CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Wednesday August 17th, 2022 While Jill Biden is on her second round of COVID, Joe just got done with his, and Quadruple vaccinated U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin infected with COVID for the second time this year. A new Icelandic study shows COVID reinfection rate rises with number of vaccine doses. The study shows that for most age groups, those who have received two doses or more are more likely to become reinfected than those who have received no vaccination or one dose. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/article-abstract/2794886 Club Membership Plug: Let’s stop and take a moment to talk about Fight Laugh Feast Club membership.

Two highly contentious races are taking place in these states Tuesday. Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) is facing opposition from Donald Trump-endorsed Kelly Tshibaka. Murkowski was one of seven senators who voted to impeach the 45th President the second time. Meanwhile, experts are wondering if Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wy0.) can secure her seat against Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman. She’s one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump and she’s also one of two Republicans on the January 6 panel. Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) is the other who has come to her defense often. California church that was fined over $200K for defying COVID-19 restrictions gets fines dropped https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-church-fined-200k-defying-covid-19-restrictions-fines-dropped A California church that continued to hold services in defiance of county health orders that it close down during the COVID-19 pandemic has had its fines dropped after a nearly two-year battle. "This is a significant victory for churches and pastors across this country," Robert Tyler, president of Advocates for Faith & Freedom, said in a press release after the California Court of Appeal reversed an injunction against Calvary Chapel San Jose. "We are honored to represent pastors and churches who are willing to take the heat in defense of liberty because it benefits everyone." At issue was the church's refusal to comply with health officials in Santa Clara County, who obtained a temporary restraining order and injunction in November 2020 against Calvary Chapel and two pastors, Mike McClure and Carson Atherly, after the church failed to follow pandemic health orders that included restrictions on in-person services, mask mandates, and a submission to the county of the church's social distancing protocols. The defiance eventually resulted in over $200,000 in fines for the church, which continued to hold worship services as the monetary penalties mounted. Calvary Chapel's persistence eventually paid off. The California Court of Appeal reversed the injunction, contempt orders, and fines on Monday. "For the reasons stated below, we conclude that the temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions are facially unconstitutional pursuant to the recent guidance of the United States Supreme Court regarding the First Amendment’s protection of the free exercise of religion in the context of public health orders that impact religious practice," the court said in the ruling. "As the underlying orders which Calvary Chapel violated are void and unenforceable, we will annul the orders of contempt in their entirety and reverse the orders to pay monetary sanctions."

Biden signs $739 billion Inflation Reduction Act into law, slams GOP for voting against the tax, climate deal https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-signs-739-billion-inflation-reduction-act-law-slams-gop-voting-against-tax-climate-deal President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law on Tuesday, saying "the American people won, and the special interests lost" with the new legislation and touting Democratic support while slamming Republicans for not backing the bill. The president returned to the White House after a week-long vacation in Kiawah Island, South Carolina. Biden was joined by House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer during an event in the State Dining Room at the White House. "With this law, the American people won, and the special interests lost," Biden said Tuesday. "This administration began amid a dark time in America … a once-in-a-century pandemic, devastating joblessness, clear and present threats to democracy and the rule of law, doubts about America's future itself — and yet we've not wavered, we've not flinched, and we've not given in." Biden said, instead, the law will "deliver results for the American people." "We didn't tear down. We built up. We didn't look back. We look forward," Biden said. "And today, today, offers further proof that the soul of America is vibrant. The future of America is bright, and the promise of America is real. And just beginning." The bill, which was passed by the Senate earlier this month and the House of Representatives last week, costs an estimated $437 billion, with $369 billion going toward investments in "Energy Security and Climate Change," according to a summary by Senate Democrats. Vice President Kamala Harris cast a tie-breaking vote to allow the legislation to pass, 51-50, in the Senate, and the House passed the legislation a few days later. "I am confident this bill will endure as one of the greatest legislative feats in decades," said Schumer, D-N.Y. "In normal times, getting these bills done would be a huge achievement, but to do now, with only 50 Democratic votes in the Senate over an intransigent Republican minority, is nothing short of amazing." Schumer thanked Biden for his leadership during the Tuesday event, and he thanked his Democratic colleagues, including Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., for joining together to pass the package, saying it shows "how dedicated and persistent our caucus is." Democrats project that the legislation will reduce the deficit by bringing in $737 billion. This includes an estimated $124 billion from IRS tax enforcement, the projected result of hiring 87,000 new IRS agents who will ramp up audits. The bill also imposes a 15% corporate minimum tax that the Joint Committee on Taxation predicts will raise $222 billion, and prescription drug pricing reform that the Senate estimates will bring in $265 billion. The Congressional Budget Office said the bill will have "a negligible effect" on inflation in 2022, and in 2023 its impact would range between reducing inflation by 0.1% and increasing it by 0.1%. Judge declines request to block Georgia's fetal heartbeat law that bans some abortions https://justthenews.com/nation/states/center-square/fulton-county-judge-declines-request-block-georgias-fetal-heartbeat-law Fulton County Superior Court judge declined a request to block Georgia's fetal heartbeat law that bans most abortions after six weeks. Georgia lawmakers passed House Bill 481, the Living Infants Fairness Equality Act, in 2019. However, a federal judge initially blocked the law, commonly called the "Heartbeat Bill," because the U.S. Supreme Court had previously upheld the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling. After the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Georgia officials asked the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals to reverse the district court decision, and a federal appeals judge ruled the law could take effect. The move officials prompted a group of pro-abortion doctors and advocates to file a lawsuit in Fulton County Superior Court. "The court's decision today declining to block the abortion ban is extremely disappointing and leaves in place a law that severely compromises the quality of women's healthcare in the state of Georgia," Andrea Young, executive director of the ACLU of Georgia, said in an announcement. "Ultimately, the power is with Georgia voters to affirm our right to privacy and to make personal, private and intimate decisions without government interference." Opponents of the law said the ruling is not final and that it denied immediate "emergency relief" to block HB 481. In a news release, opponents said they planned to continue their fight. Kara Richardson, a spokeswoman for Attorney General Chris Carr, declined to comment, saying the case is ongoing. Katie Byrd and Andrew Isenhour, spokespeople for Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican, did not respond to a request from The Center Square for comment. This is Gabriel Rench with Crosspolitic News.

Opponents of the law said the ruling is not final and that it denied immediate "emergency relief" to block HB 481. In a news release, opponents said they planned to continue their fight. Kara Richardson, a spokeswoman for Attorney General Chris Carr, declined to comment, saying the case is ongoing. Katie Byrd and Andrew Isenhour, spokespeople for Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican, did not respond to a request from The Center Square for comment. This is Gabriel Rench with Crosspolitic News.
