Economist Peter Nickerson, 56, is a proud resident of Seattle, arguably the capital of green America, so it almost goes without saying that he supports aggressive environmental policies. He'd like to see his city make public transit free to reduce vehicle emissions. He wants to ban pesticides in rivers where salmon swim. He's a devoted recycler who even composts his own trash. Surely, then, he must love Seattle's new Bag tax? (Starting in 2009, it would require drug, grocery and convenience stores to charge 20 cents per disposable Bag.) Actually, Nickerson thinks it's a terrible idea. ... Source: portlandor.about.com --- 27 days ago

If you’ve never actually been to Chambers Bay , the Robert Trent Jones II design in University Place, Washington (near Tacoma), it’s easy to assume that it must be overhyped. It’s hard to imagine that a course that had been open for less than a year was really worthy of being awarded the 2015 U.S. Open. Now, Golf Magazine debuted Chambers at No. 8 on its list of the Top 100 Courses You Can Play - and well if you haven’t been there, you’ll probably assume that’s ridiculous too. Only, if you have seen Chambers Bay, you know that No. 8 actually might be a little low. This is a course that grabs you before you even start walking its open fairways with a caddie (the only way to play it). The clubhouse sits on top of a hill that looks down on this rugged, natural-looking course that rolls toward the striking blue water of Pudget Sound. On one of my visits to Chambers Bay, I came across four Olympic Club members who all said they liked Chambers Bay even more than Bandon Dunes’ courses, including Pacific Dunes, which took No. 1 in those Top 100 rankings. Now, WorldGolf.com’s resident Bandon Dunes honk Brandon Tucker may disagree. But these were four guys used to traveling all over the world and spending big money on golf. Whether it’s better than Pacific Dunes or not, Chambers Bay is a course worthy of making a specific trip just to play it. Of course, this means you’ll be in the greater Seattle area, a place that’s doing something to shop ... Source: www.newsreview.com --- 16 hours ago
