Coast Guard closes ports in Savannah, Brunswick
Fri, 05 Sep 2008 12:16:24 -0400
Savannah — The U.S. Coast Guard has closed the ports of Savannah and Brunswick to inbound vessels because of Tropical Storm Hanna. Robert Morris, spokesman for the Georgia Port Authority, said while shipping lanes have been closed, the loading and unloading of ships currently in port has not been affected. "The terminals, gates and intermodal operations are open as usual," Morris said, adding that the five or so cargo ships waiting out at sea will be quickly processed once the shipping lanes reopen, probably on Saturday.

She said the driver ran a stop sign and didn't slow down until he crashed in a ditch.
Veterans must find new place to live
Thu, 04 Sep 2008 23:11:21 -0400
Eighty-one veterans, all with health problems, have been told they must find another place to live by Nov. 30 because budget cuts are forcing the state to close the Milledgeville domiciliary unit at the Georgia War Veterans Home. The Georgia Department of Veterans Affairs has proposed saving $2.7 million out of its budget by closing the domiciliary, which resembles an old college dorm with communal dining room near the lobby. Assistant Commissioner Len Glass said about half the displaced veterans will go either to the state veterans hospital units that provide full nursing care or to the federal Veteran's Administration's domiciliary in Dublin. He said the agency was helping the rest of the veterans find new homes — maybe with relatives or friends.
