by Jennifer Moulliet, 13WMAZ.com

STORY HIGHLIGHTS:

- The next BRAC, which determines whether a military base is closed, could be in 2015, if approved by Congress. 

- The commission is comprised of nine members: three appointed by each the President, the Senate and the House.

- Robins AFB, which employs about 20,000 people, could be on the list so local orgs are trying to prepare the community to fight.

Good Life Organizing: Visual Clutter and Shopping

Recently I took my daughter to one of our favorite department stores for a little summer clothes shopping. While she browsed in the juniors department, I made my way to the ladies section. What I saw stopped me in my tracks - shelf after shelf of clothes strewn about and in a big jumbled mess. Not a pretty sight. It was worse than I have seen after a Black Friday sale.

Laurens Doctor Hit, Dies While Jogging

A Laurens County doctor was hit and killed while jogging with his wife Sunday  morning.

That's according to Laurens County deputy coroner Nathan Stanley.

He said John Bahouth was struck by a vehicle around 10 a.m. Sunday on Antioch Church Road.

And he died less than an hour later at Fairview Park Hospital, where he worked as a radiologist.

He said the driver stopped and cooperated with police.

Stanley said the Georgia State Patrol is investigating, but all indications are the accident was what he called "a freak accident."

A state patrol news release says the vehicle was driven by Jennifer Lindsey Bryant, 30, of Dexter.

They said the GSP Specialized Collision Reconstruction Team is investigating.

Stanley said Bahouh, 58, was a native of Syracuse, N.Y.  and lived in Dexter.
