Before Phil Jowers retired from Duracell in 2007, he opened Right Turn Driver Training.
He hoped to retire from his full-time job at the plant, and then teach others the rules of the road during his retirement.
In 2007, his plans changed.
Jowers, 56, discovered that a disease he learned he had in 2004, non-alcoholic septic hepatitis, had progressed. The disease causes the scarring of the liver, known as cirrhosis. Doctors told him that he needed a liver transplant, or else he had six months to a year to live.

Two Lancaster cardiologists are up on the latest trend when it comes to heart catheterization.
Drs. Taral Patel and Paul Slota of Carolina Heart Specialists, who are affiliated with Springs Memorial Hospital, are among the first cardiologists in the area to offer radial artery cardiac catheterization as a first option for patients.
A cardiac catheterization typically involves inserting a small tube or sheath into a major artery, most commonly the femoral artery in the groin, and snaking a small catheter to the heart.

INDIAN LAND – The name of Indian Land’s first brick-oven pizza restaurant means “friends” in Italian, which is fitting since its owners are childhood pals.
Rob Ross and Jimmy Warner opened Amici Italian Lovin’ Oven in September to offer the area something unique.
The restaurant is located next to Carolina Bistro, which is also run by the pair. The restaurants share kitchen space and staff to reduce overhead costs.
“It’s a friendly, fun, family place,” said Gloria Ross, Rob’s wife and daytime manager.
