HOPE MILLS - A third person has been charged with trying to break into the Clinic Pharmacy in Hope Mills earlier this month.
Ronald Ray Sullivan, 23, of the 2200 block of Downing Road in Fayetteville, is charged with attempted breaking and entering, conspiracy and resisting arrest, according to Sgt. Sheila Merriman of the Hope Mills Police Department.
The others who are charged with identical offenses are Robert David Beatty, 22, of the 1300 block of Split Rail Drive in Parkton and Leo Michael Wilkie Jr., 25, of the 4800 block of Monticello Avenue in Hope Mills.
Beatty and Wilkie were arrested Feb. 12. after someone called police and reported that two men were climbing on the roof of the store at South Main and Patterson streets, Merriman said.
Officers then called the Hope Mills Fire Department to bring a ladder truck, Merriman said.
One of the men jumped off the roof while firefighters were setting up the ladder and attempted to run away, Merriam said.
The man was arrested off Ellison Street, Merriman said.
Sullivan's bail was set at $2,000.

Desktop Searches with Kat
The Kat desktop search tool turns up more than text strings.
The desktop search engine offers new and interesting opportunities for users to access information on their own computers. This new breed of tools lets you search your own computer in the same way you would search the Internet.
It comes as no surprise that the first tool of this category was created by Google. Another giant of the computer industry, Apple, has gone beyond this concept, integrating its own desktop search engine, called Spotlight, into the operating environment. In this setting, people do not need to know they are using a search tool.

Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, death, and hope in a Mumbai undercity (eBook)
Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, death, and hope in a Mumbai undercity (eBook)
From Pulitzer Prize-winner Katherine Boo, a landmark work of narrative nonfiction that tells the dramatic and sometimes heartbreaking story of families striving toward a better life in one of the twenty-first century's great, unequal cities.
In this brilliantly written, fast-paced book, based on three years of uncompromising reporting, a bewildering age of global change and inequality is made human.
Annawadi is a makeshift settlement in the shadow of luxury hotels near the Mumbai airport, and as India starts to prosper, Annawadians are electric with hope. Abdul, a reflective and enterprising Muslim teenager, sees "a fortune beyond counting" in the recyclable garbage that richer people throw away. Asha, a woman of formidable wit and deep scars from a childhood in rural poverty, has identified an alternate route to the middle class: political corruption. With a little luck, her sensitive, beautiful daughter—Annawadi's "most-everything girl"—will soon become its first female college graduate. And even the poorest Annawadians, like Kalu, a fifteen-year-old scrap-metal thief, believe themselves inching closer to the good lives and good times they call "the full enjoy."
But then Abdul the garbage sorter is falsely accused in a shocking tragedy; terror and a global recession rock the city; and suppressed tensions over religion, caste, sex, power and economic envy turn brutal. As the tenderest individual hopes intersect with the greatest global truths, the true contours of a competitive age are revealed. And so, too, are the imaginations and courage of the people of Annawadi.
With intelligence, humor, and deep insight into what connects human beings to one another in an era of tumultuous change, Behind the Beautiful Forevers carries the reader headlong into one of the twenty-first century's hidden worlds, and into the lives of people impossible to forget.
From the Hardcover edition.
About the Author
Katherine Boo is a staff writer at The New Yorker and a former reporter and editor for The Washington Post. Her reporting has been awarded a Pulitzer Prize, a MacArthur "Genius" grant, and a National Magazine Award for Feature Writing. For the last decade, she has divided her time between the United States and India. This is her first book.
Praise for Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, death, and hope in a Mumbai undercity…
"[An] exquisitely accomplished first book. Novelists dream of defining characters this swiftly and beautifully, but Ms. Boo is not a novelist. She is one of those rare, deep-digging journalists who can make truth surpass fiction, a documentarian with a superb sense of human drama. She makes it very easy to forget that this book is the work of a reporter. …. Comparison to Dickens is not unwarranted."
—Janet Maslin, The New York Times
"A jaw-dropping achievement, an instant classic of narrative nonfiction…With a cinematic intensity…Boo transcends and subverts every cliché, cynical or earnest, that we harbor about Indian destitution and gazes directly into the hearts, hopes, and human promise of vibrant people whom you'll not soon forget."
"Riveting, fearlessly reported….[Beautiful Forevers] plays out like a swift, richly plotted novel. That's partly because Boo writes so damn well. But it's also because over the course of three years in India she got extraordinary access to the lives and minds of the Annawadi slum, a settlement nestled jarringly close to a shiny international airport and a row of luxury hotels. Grade: A."
—Entertainment Weekly
"A tough-minded, inspiring, and irresistible book … Boo's extraordinary achievement is twofold. She shows us how people in the most desperate circumstances can find the resilience to hang on to their humanity. Just as importantly, she makes us care."
—People (four stars)
--The New York Times Book Review
"A shocking—and riveting—portrait of life in modern India. … This is one stunning piece of narrative nonfiction … Boo's prose is electric."
—O, The Oprah Magazine
"Gripping…A brilliant novelistic narration."
–Wall Street Journal
"Moving…. a humane, powerful and insightful book….A book of nonfiction so stellar it puts most novels to shame."
-- Boston Globe
"A mind-blowing read."
"An unforgettable true story, meticulously researched with unblinking honesty….Pure, astonishing reportage with as unbiased a lens as possible."
—Christian Science Monitor
"The most riveting Indian story since Slumdog Millionaire—except hers is true."
—Marie Claire
"Seamless and intimate….A scrupulously true story….It's tempting to compare [Behind the Beautiful Forevers] to a novel, but…that would hardly do it justice."
"Extraordinary….moving….Like the best journeys, Boo's book cracks open our preconceptions and constructs an abiding bridge—at once daunting and inspiring—to a world we would never otherwise recognize as our own."
--National Geographic Traveler
"An unforgettable true story, meticulously researched with unblinking honesty….Pure, astonishing reportage with as unbiased a lens as possible."
—Christian Science Monitor
"Behind the Beautiful Forevers offers a rebuke to official reports and dry statistics on the global poor...Boo is one of few chroniclers providing this picture. She's a moral force and…an artist of reverberating power."
--The American Prospect
"Kate Boo's reporting is a form of kinship. Abdul and Manju and Kalu of Annawadi will not be forgotten. She leads us through their unknown world, her gift of language rising up like a delicate string of necessary lights. There are books that change the way you feel and see; this is one of them. If we receive the fiery spirit from which it was written, it ought to change much more than that."
—Adrian Nicole LeBlanc, author of Random Family
"I couldn't put Behind the Beautiful Forevers down even when I wanted to—when the misery, abuse and filth that Boo so elegantly and understatedly describes became almost overwhelming. Her book, situated in a slum on the edge of Mumbai's international airport, is one of the most powerful indictments of economic inequality I've ever read. If Bollywood ever decides to do its own version of The Wire, this would be it."
—Barbara Ehrenreich, author of Nickel and Dimed
"A beautiful account, told through real-life stories, of the sorrows and joys, the anxieties and stamina, in the lives of the precarious and powerless in urban India whom a booming country has failed to absorb and integrate. A brilliant book that simultaneously informs, agitates, angers, inspires, and instigates."
—Amartya Sen, Professor of Economics and Philosophy at Harvard University, winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics
"Without question the best book yet written on contemporary India. Also, the best work of narrative nonfiction I've read in twenty-five years."
—Ramachandra Guha, author of India After Gandhi
"There is a lot to like about this book: the prodigious research that it is built on, distilled so expertly that we hardly notice how much we are being taught; the graceful and vivid prose that never calls attention to itself; and above all, the true and moving renderings of the people of the Mumbai slum called Annawadi. Garbage pickers and petty thieves, victims of gruesome injustice—Ms. Boo draws us into their lives, and they do not let us go. This is a superb book."
—Tracy Kidder, author of Mountains Beyond Mountains and Strength in What Remains
"It might surprise you how completely enjoyable this book is, as rich and beautifully written as a novel. In the hierarchy of long form reporting, Katherine Boo is right up there."
—David Sedaris

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Necessity inspires invention and ambition today. If there is something you want badly enough, you can come up with a winning plan of action. In love, what's heartfelt outlasts what's skin deep.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Quality and quantity both matter today, in spite of someone's insistence that one or the other can be sacrificed without consequence. Don't be tempted into foregoing an essential.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You may not feel as ready to put something into writing or sign on the dotted line as your partner or someone else close to you seems to be. Proceed at the pace that's right for you.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you don't feel ready to dive headfirst into a new situation, sticking a toe in the water could be the wiser "next step." Romantic conversations or memories are exceptionally emotional.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Thinking something can be done and actually getting something accomplished can be two different animals today, especially if you fail to consult key others before rushing off full speed ahead.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You enjoy the organized and orderly way that a situation unfolds today. You are able to use the predictability of circumstances to your advantage. It pays to be in the right place at the right time.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take a good idea from the past and make it work for you in the here-and-now. An avenue that you once could not see clearly appears before you in crystal clarity.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It is wonderful to find exactly the item that you are looking to purchase and even more terrific to find it at an attractive price. Today can be a good day to do some shopping.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.21): You are a persuasive communicator today. You are able to use your intelligence and wit to get to the head of a line or to bring someone over to your point of view.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are in no mood to give-in to peer-pressure, especially if you believe that the bandwagon is headed in a pointless direction. Reflection promotes harmony in the inner world of your emotions.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The right time and place to reveal your emotions could be difficult or impossible to find today. If your gut-level intuition is telling you to wait, it is probably smart to listen.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Standing up for the underdog comes naturally to you. A small gift or unexpected treat really makes your day. A mysterious person, place or subject grabs your interest and doesn't easily let go.
These interpretations are based on the aspects and positions of the planets in relation to each sun-sign. They indicate the general mood and issues of the day as you experience them. Be creative in applying your forecast to the actual circumstances of your life.

The Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) Deal With Nokia Is Too Little Too Late
Anyone still wondering why Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Steve Ballmer is being forced into early retirement need look no further than the $7.2 billion Nokia Corp. (NYSE ADR: NOK) deal announced today (Tuesday).
In a note to employees, Ballmer called the Microsoft-Nokia deal "a bold step into the future," but given the already cozy relationship between the two companies, it looks more like a leap of faith.

Thomas M. Kostigens blogg
The average American home has 10,000 items in it. We need storage units and cabinets in just about every room to house all these things. But you would need an Olympic-size swimming pool to store all the water it takes to make what we so casually call our stuff.
In fact, if you were to release all the water in all the items in our homes, at least 200,000 gallons would gush out like in some mad scene in a disaster movie. Americans expend a lot of water spending $78.5 billion a year on furniture. Heres why: Most of the furniture we own (38 percent) is made of wood. Just 1 board foot of lumber takes about 5.4 gallons of water to make. Wood, of course, comes from trees, and last time I checked, it took water to grow trees.
According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), more than 8 million tons of clothing and footwear enter the waste stream annually, and only a fraction is reused or recycled. That means, on average, you and I each throw away 54 pounds of textiles per year. Out the door with those clothes go tens of thousands of gallons of water.
But were not throwing away as much as were buying. So in addition to piling up perfectly good clothing in landfills, were also stockpiling our wardrobes. Most American women, for example, have more pairs of jeans than there are days of the week! And blue jeans are far from water lean.
Every new pair of jeans costs nearly 3,000 gallons of water to make. Given that 450 million pairs are sold annually in the United States, that comes to nearly 1.4 trillion gallons of waterthe equivalent of half of Californias entire yearly urban water demand.
Most of us in the United States take a vacation every year. More than 30 million Americans fly somewhere outside the country annually, and increasingly, we are opting to fly instead of driving domestically. And when we get to our destinations, we stay mostly in hotels or motels. Its there that we really let the water dogs out: The average luxury hotel rooms estimated water use is 475 gallons per day, which amounts to more than the average US household uses! We turn into traveling, water-sucking giants who splash about merrily, drinking, bathing, steaming, basking in hot tubs, and waiting in line at aqua parks in the desert. Yes, we are a curious lot in different senses of the word. Still, before we even leave our homes and begin acting water-crazed while on vacation, we waste loads of water in ways we may not even have thought of.
Nearly 150 million Americans attend a baseball, basketball, hockey, or football game each year.
Team and stadium owners, as well as league officials, are getting wise to different ways to save while still providing a great experience for fans.
The National Football League has a green advisory committee to help it, among others things, stop water waste. The PGA of America teamed up with Audubon International to conserve water and encourage wildlife preservation. And Major League Baseball hooked up with the Natural Resources Defense Council to create sustainable stadium operations and team practices.
Water savings is a top priority for sports professionals and enthusiasts because water is so critical to game playing, whether its to keep the field green or the athletes hydrated.
Water is big business. Just five beverage companies consume enough water over the course of a year to satisfy the daily water needs of every person on the planet. Of course, we may not be able to control how much water is put in a can of soda or a beer (less water, more alcohol, please) or the amount it takes to make paper, but we can control our own use at the workplace and even influence those who manage supplies.
It may not be our nickel that gets spent on the utility bill at work, but the gains are certainly ours when we reduce the corporate water footprint on the planet. Water prices are poised to rise due to increased water stress, and corporate growth is expected to be impeded as resources dwindle. Make no mistake, all of this comes out of our paychecks in one way or another.

Outdoors is where we as residents tend to use huge amounts of water. In some parts of the country, mostly out in the arid West, 70 percent or more of residential water is used for lawn irrigation.
Something is seriously wrong with this picture. Pink flamingos and fountains aside, decorative lawns that need lots of care and lots of water are scourges. It may be that suburbia is making the wells run dry. Indeed, homeowners use an average of 120 gallons of water each day for things outside.
Think about that for a second: "things outside" -- where rain should be able to do the job nicely -- if we stick with the vegetation that grows naturally in our locale, that is. Irrigation, my dear water-freak neighbor, was invented to keep our fields of food alive, not your imported turf.
I used to daydream in the shower, letting my mind fog over like the bathroom mirror fogged with steam. Then I became aware of how much water I was wasting with every extra minute I stood there. Now it's as if I shower at the Bates Motel: I'm in and out quickly. Many of us mindlessly waste water, either because we are just fogging out or because we really don't know any better. A home-based education on water is what we need. And here's why: Our homes are where we use the most water in our lives. The average household in America uses about 400 gallons of water per day. That can easily be cut to less than 100 gallons by doing a few simple things. Here are some tips culled from The Green Blue Book.
It occurred to me as I was having my morning coffee that I advise readers in The Green Blue Book that it may take several cups of water to brew a cup of coffee, but it takes 37 gallons to actually make the coffee for that cup. The water it takes to grow the coffee outweighs the water it takes to make a cup, I write.
Right now I am wearing 5,178 gallons of water. It took 569 gallons to grow the cotton and manufacture the material for my t-shirt, 1,247 gallons for my sneakers, 2,866 gallons for my blue jeans, 244 gallons for my socks, and 252 gallons for my boxers.
Through what we wear, consume, and use on an annual basis each of us in the United States on average is responsible for 656,000 gallons of water. We use more than ten times as much water per day as someone in the developing world.

The sys admin's daily grind – Raspberry Pi
Easy as Pi
It's probably not a coincidence that a number of people want to write about the muchlauded Raspberry Pi single-board computer, and our regular columnist Charly isn't going to blow raspberries.
The Raspberry Pi [1] grew on a vine sponsored by a British foundation. The intent was to create a low-budget, single-board computer to reduce the cost of computer science lessons at schools. The inventor estimated that a low four-figure number of Raspberries would be needed to break even, but this was way off the mark – the demand is huge. For around US$ 35 (UK£ 22, EUR 25) plus taxes, shipping, and handling, consumers receive an ARM minicomputer with 256MB of RAM – if you can get one that is. I waited more than three months for my Raspberry (Figure 1), and I was lucky – I'm told that pre-orders are well into the millions.

Native Americans
Centuries before British, French, Dutch, Portuguese and perhaps Norse explorers claimed to discover Maine, Native Americans called it home. Collectively known as the Wabanaki, or People of the Dawn, Maine's Native Americans are divided into four tribes: The Micmacs and Maliseets, based in Aroostook County; the Penobscots, on Indian Island, near Orono; and the Passamaquoddy, based at Pleasant Point, in Perry, near Eastport, and at Indian Township, in Princeton, near Calais.
Among the most famous of Maine's Native Americans are: Molly Molasses, a 19th-century Penobscot medicine woman; Joe Polis and Joe Attean, Penobscot guides who led Henry David Thoreau through the Maine woods over ancient canoe routes; Louis Sockalexis, a Penobscot and the first American Indian major-league baseball player; and Tomah Joseph, a Passamaquoddy canoe-maker and guide for President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
The Wabanaki are renowned for crafts including baskets, for both display and work; birch-bark canoes; walking sticks; and beaded jewelry. Basketmakers Mary Mitchell Gabriel and Clara Neptune Keezer have been recognized as National Heritage Fellows. Passamaquoddy basketmaker Jeremy Frey received a 2010 USA Ford Fellow for Crafts and Traditional Arts.
Members of the Maine Indian Basketmakers Alliance demonstrate and show their works at three annual events: the Native American Festival and Basketmakers Market; the Common Ground Country Fair; and the Maine Indian Basketmakers Sale and Demonstration. These events also highlight other Native arts including traditional singing, drumming and storytelling. Contemporary Native American artisans also sell from their homes; many are represented in shops and galleries, too.
Many museums have Wabanaki collections. The strongest collections are at the Abbe Museum, on Mount Desert Island; the Hudson Museum, at the University of Maine at Orono; the Maine State Museum, in Augusta; and the Penobscot Nation Museum, on Indian Island. Smaller collections of note are at the Waponaki Museum, in Pleasant Point; Nowetah's Indian Museum and Gift Store in New Portland; the Passamaquoddy Museum at Indian Township; and at local historical-society museums throughout the state. Both the Abbe and the Hudson museums are strong in children's activities. The Abbe Museum's gift shop, open year-round, has a well-chosen selection of Native American-made crafts as well as books and related merchandise.
