By Sylvia Hall – bio | email
JACKSON COUNTY, MS (WLOX) - One week into a home burglary investigation, officers have some big findings.
"We started investigating a home burglary that occurred, where a number of guns were taken, some music equipment, we started investigating it last Sunday afternoon," said Lieutenant Ken McClenic of the Jackson County Sheriff's Department. "And the investigation has led to 15 arrests, seven meth labs being discovered."
McClenic said investigators traced one of those stolen guns to a Vancleave meth lab. He said that gun had been in the hands of 22-year-old Jeremy Fletcher, a convicted felon, and the 15th person to be arrested in connection with the investigation. McClenic said he believes Fletcher sold the gun at the meth lab.
"He was arrested for possession of marijuana, simple possession, misdemeanor amount, violation of probation, possession of a stolen firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon," said McClenic.
Fletcher was arrested Friday of last week. The other 14 were arrested by the Jackson County Sheriff's Department and Narcotics Task Force Agents, at three different homes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, almost all of them on meth-related crimes.
Vancleave residents Shane David Gill and Rogerdale Richard Forehand were both arrested at a Gautier home early Tuesday evening at a home where a meth lab was also discovered. Officers said they were both charged with possession of chemical precursors and intent to manufacture Methamphetamine.
Investigators said Brandon Joseph Johnson of Vancleave was arrested at his home in Vancleave later that evening. Johnson was charged with possession of Methamphetamine and generation of hazardous waste. Because his home is located next door to Vancleave Upper Elementary School, officers said he was also charged with possession of Methamphetamine within 1,500 feet of a school.
Officers said the same investigation led them to two more meth labs Wednesday, when they raided a home on Low Point Road in Vancleave. Christopher Carl Brown, John Calvin Brown and Frank Phillip Spratley were each arrested and charged with manufacturing of Methamphetamine and generation of hazardous waste.
The case led to even more meth labs and arrests Thursday, according to officers. They said they found three more shake and bake meth labs and one of the stolen guns inside a home on Poticaw Rd. in Vancleave. Cindy Moe Shoemaker, her son Justin Clark, Brian Bud Bang, Robert Alton White, and Vicky Lee Reed were all charged with manufacturing meth while possessing a firearm, possession of chemical precursors with intent to manufacture Methamphetamine, and generation of hazardous waste.
Officers said Loretta Bang and Anthony Mark Bang were also charged with conspiracy to manufacture Methamphetamine. They said Anthony Bang was also charged with possession of more than 15 grams of pseudoephedrine.
Wesley Robert Sims, wanted by Ocean Springs Police, was also arrested when he walked into the investigation carrying two semi-automatic handguns, according to officers.
Even though this case has netted big findings in Vancleave, investigators said it isn't over. In fact, the home burglary that started it all still hasn't been solved.
"When I briefed her [the burglary victim] on the case, I said 'We still haven't charged anybody with your burglary,'" said McClenic. "What I said is 'for what it's worth, your burglary has cleaned up the streets of Vancleave.'"
McClenic said he thinks more arrests could be on the way as a result of this investigation.
"It's hard to say how many arrests or how many meth labs or how many leads we're going to produce," said McClenick. "You'd only be guessing. I hope it takes us a long way and I hope we put a lot of bad people in jail, and I hope we take down a lot of meth labs, and solve burglaries and as many crimes as we can from this investigation."

Happy 43rd to the best(old) rapper alive. Not much this year, but there are plenty of "44″ gun-innuendo lyrics waiting for you next year.
Happy 43rd to the best(old) rapper alive. Not much this year, but there are plenty of "44″ gun-innuendo lyrics waiting for you next year.
daaaaaamn, you broke out the Hawaiian Sophie on 'em. "Looked to my partner Jay, 'Yeah, i saw it', shrugged his shoulders, said 'eh…i can't call it' "
by the way, if you aren't fucking with the Chi-Lites' "That's How Long" (the song they made the December 4th instrumental from), i just don't know what you're doing with your life. late 60s through early 80s R&B music is tragically underappreciated in today's world.
Happy 43rd, Hov.
Can we get a translator in here? I don't speak ebonics.
Hey there black man, when were you born? Not like Dr Dre, Ice Cube and Rakim aren't still alive or anything. Hell I'm white and even I know all of those guys are older than Jay.
I still think he's a biter not a writer, but Hov is one of the greats. Happy B-Day Jigga.
Never was the biggest fan of Hov as a rapper, but mad respect to the dude for being around for so long. Jealous that he gets to plow Beyonce
Best Rapper Alive? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OVNXTkV414
Not sure how anyone can claim Jay-Z is the best rapper alive with Nas still breathing. Also not sure how @lundqvist can post that song where eminem's verses are so much better than hov's. As nas quotes in ether, "eminem murdered you on your own shit"
Props to Mr. Carter, but I'll be eagerly anticipating Mo's take on the Flyin' Hawaiian to Boston signing.
My point was, NAS & Damian Marley together, never leave the rotation.
nat, I was trying to say Em>Hov. Probably should have expressed that a little more clearly
you are fucking braindead. rakim, masta ace, method man, raekwon, ghostface, rza, gza, eminem, and evene large professor are all better than jay get your shit together mo you mulatto bitch

September ushers in a busy month of changes. Baseball season is winding down, football has begun. The month includes the Labor Day holiday, a day that was set aside to recognize those who did the sweating and toiling in building a nation, a day to remind us that all we seek is found within the combination of natures gifts and mankinds labors. Many will participate with flags and parades, speeches and bands. Others will celebrate the end of summer at beaches and resorts.
But September is much more: Its a young mother escorting her children to await the yellow school bus, the shepherd that delivers the flock to feed in those endless pastures ripe in reading, writing and rithmatic.
September enters the playing fields carrying a bag full of sunshine and brings a welcome breath of drier, cooler air that sprinkles hints of early color amid the swamps and mountain valleys. Scolding squirrels busy themselves scampering along branches, stashing hickory nuts and pecans for their winter supplies.
Fish awaken to cooler waters, misty morning fog lying over swamp and river. Summer grows reluctant and deepens its embrace, not yet eager to leave. The cicadas song rises in pitch and volume as falls harbingers enter their finale.
The onset of our ninth month brings neither true summer nor autumn; it translates as a year moving toward longer nights, brighter stars.
Septembers arrival includes a total of 30 days and nights filled with exciting change.
It brings oysters and shellfish in season, with tropical storms awakening in the South Atlantic. It means supplies assembled in hurricane shelters with storm shutters at the ready; escape routes checked.
September offers a bit of refreshing excitement to a year being rousted from its summer doze.

COOPERSTOWN – Robert Tirrell, 25, son of Julie and Paul, and brother of Will and Luke, died in Los Altos Hills, Calif., on Oct. 10, 2012.
He was a 2005 graduate of Cooperstown Central High School, a 2009 graduate of Cornell University with degrees in biochemistry and computational biology, and a 2011graduate of Stanford University with a master's degree in biomedical computation. He worked as lead data engineer for Solum Inc. of Mountain View, Calif.
His extended family and friends, both here and in California, especially partner Joline Fan, would like him remembered as a (hugely) kind and generous man, energetic, devoted to his friends and his work, a little bit selfish, and very stubborn. His passing leaves a void in all of us as massive as his heart and as his intellect.
For those interested, donations in Robert's memory may be made to the Stanford Center for Biomedical Informatics Research, 251 Campus Drive, Room X215, Stanford, CA 94303.
The Tirrell family will receive friends from 1 to 3 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 18, 2012, in the Templeton Room, located in the lower level at The Otesaga, 60 Lake Street, Cooperstown. At the conclusion of the visitation, a memorial service will be offered at 3 p.m. in the Templeton Room.
Arrangements are under the guidance of the Connell, Dow & Deysenroth Funeral Home in Cooperstown.

Project Heidi
Just Who Is Heidi Klum?
You've seen it in movies or on television -- the scene where a gorgeous model twists and turns effortlessly while the famous photographer shouts encouragingly: "Yes! Beautiful!" Today, in a West Hollywood studio, supermodel Heidi Klum is the one in front of the lens. As the photographer clicks away, 35-year-old Klum tosses her shoulder-length blond hair and flashes her high-beam smile. Then she walks over to a nearby computer screen, examines the just-taken digital shots and proclaims "ja!" to the ones she likes, "nein" to the ones she doesn't and "sehr schon!"(very pretty) to the ones she really, really likes.
It is just this display of decisive Teutonic crispness that has made Klum the successful star she is today. Perhaps her greatest credit is as executive producer of Project Runway, a hit reality series about unknown fashion designers competing for a chance to win $100,000. At press time the show's fate was in limbo. Season six is tied up in litigation as a result of Runway's move from one cable channel to another. But such hurdles are nothing new for Klum, whose TV show didn't exactly get off to an auspicious start almost five years ago. When it debuted Klum's catchphrase, "One day you're in, the next day you're out," and her brisk two-cheek goodbye kisses seemed cold and threatening to American audiences. "During the taping of season one -- I'll use the word -- she was just a little stiff," says Tim Gunn, on-air mentor to the designers. But once Klum was able to relax and show off her natural playfulness, she became Project Runway's heart and soul. "I mean, she owns the show, speaking literally and metaphorically, she really does," says Gunn.
In addition to Runway, Klum has her hands in many other ventures -- among them, a jeans line for Jordache, a makeup collection for Victoria's Secret, and her new skincare line, In an Instant. All this begs the question: Just who is Heidi Klum? Is she a madly multitasking mother, a savvy entrepreneur, a wannabe designer, or number 78 on Forbes' list of the 100 most powerful and highest-paid celebrities? Perhaps she's a little bit of everything. "Heidi runs her life as the CEO of Heidi Klum, Inc.," says her Runway costar, designer Michael Kors. "Everything is done with precision and elegance. And then when you think she has a husband and three children -- she is a supersonic, sexy android to be able to accomplish all she does in a normal day."
But Klum shrugs it off. "I don't have the hard everyday life that so many working mothers face," she says. In fact, she shot most of Runway's new season in Los Angeles, which meant she could go swimming or jump on the trampoline with Leni, 4, Henry, 3, and Johan, 2, before leaving in the morning. Klum also worked every other day, which gave her ample opportunity to sit down to dinner with her noisy, bilingual clan, clasp hands and say "guten appetit!" Klum also makes plenty of time for her husband of nearly four years, 46-year-old British singer songwriter Seal, whom she met in the lobby of a New York hotel. As she tells it, the 6-foot-3-inch singer had just returned from the gym in bicycle shorts when he caught her eye. Their love blossomed while Klum was pregnant with Leni (whose father is Italian businessman Flavio Briatore) and is still very much alive. Klum says they love to dance so much that Seal wanted them to try out for Dancing with the Stars. "I told him, 'But Schatzi [sweetheart], they won't let us dance together,'" she says. And while they keep their business lives separate most of the time, they know that the couple that dines, dances, and changes diapers together stays together. "I have the best husband in the world," she says. "He's very involved." The two drive their children to and from school together. "We talk about the kids on the way there. Then we talk with the kids on the way back," she says. Last fall Klum became an American citizen in time to vote for Barack Obama in the presidential election. "Having mixed-race children, I feel that when I tell them they can be anything, it now means they really can," she says.

PEP is the acronym for the Progress through Enrichment Program. It is a program for first and second grade students that score at or above the 90th percentile on a cognitive abilities test. We administer either the CogAT or the OLSAT. Any student that qualifies will be placed in a one to two hour class weekly. Students that score at the 97th percentile or above will be placed in the gifted program immediately at the beginning of third grade. Any student that scored into PEP at the 90th to 96th percentile will be give either the OLSAT or the CogAT, but not the same form as was administered for PEP placement. They will have the opportunity to retest and determine whether they will qualify at the 97th percentile or above and continue to be in my class for GT at the beginning of third grade. PEP is not offered to students after second grade.
If you feel like your child would benefit from placement in PEP you may contact me or the counselor at your child's school to request testing. The GT teacher at each site administers, scores, and keeps all confidential files on students referred for testing. Testing will take place at the beginning of the school year and again in April and the first part of May. If you would like to have your child tested, please contact the GT teacher to get your child added to the list for the next testing cycle.

Ledyard — A monitor lizard first spotted in town in early July was shot and killed Sunday afternoon after police said it was killing chickens in a coop on Shewville Road.
Police said they received a 911 call at about 3:27 p.m. from a resident reporting that she believed an "alligator" was in her chicken coop.
Officers from the Ledyard Police Department and animal control responded to the scene and found the lizard attacking chickens. Police said the lizard was between 3 and 4 feet long.
Police said to avoid further risk to livestock, domestic animals and human life, police officers were forced to shoot and kill the animal.
For several months, Ledyard police and animal control have received consistent reports of sightings of the monitor lizard in various locations in the eastern part of Ledyard.
Police said reptiles such as monitor lizards are illegal to own and can be extremely dangerous.

Disney World Christmas Guide
Disney World ups its magic meter quite a bit for the holidays (Minnie Mouse even throws on her favorite Christmas dress), so December is one of the best times to visit. If you've got kids, you've got a great excuse to rent an Orlando vacation home, but even if you don't, feel free to tap into your inner child this winter.
Here are Disney World's holiday highlights...
Party with Mickey at the Magic Kingdom
On select nights, from November 10th through December 19th, celebrate the holidays with Mickey at his Very Merry Christmas Party. For the month-long bash, Cinderella's Castle will be covered with 200,000 twinkling lights and Disney characters will be dressed up for the season and signing autographs around the park. If you happen to miss the character you adore the most, see him or her in Mickey's Once Upon a Time Christmas Parade. The dazzling fireworks display, hosted by Jiminy Cricket and featuring a rousing score, as well as Mickey's "Twas the Night Before Christmas" are other must-see attractions. If Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party is over upon your visit, expect plenty of holiday cheer in the form of extra magic hours and an extra special SpectroMagic Parade on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Note that Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party requires a separate admission ticket.
Light Up with Joy at Hollywood Studios
Hollywood Studios (formerly known as MGM Studios), has the most holiday spirit in all of Disney World because it morphs into a full-out Winter Wonderland November 28th through January 4th. After dusk, The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights delights guests every 10 minutes with a symphony of synchronized flashing lights. The fantastically illuminating tradition has gradually become a staple of the holidays at Disney World. Finally, don't miss out on regular events like the Block Party Bash, where you can meet your favorite Disney Pixar characters, and Fantasmic! – the heart-stirring, dramatic face-off between Mickey Mouse and notorious Disney villains.
Discover Holidays Around the World at Epcot
Every day in December, get to know different sides of Santa Clause by visiting storytellers in France, Italy, and American Adventure. While in American Adventure, buy a knick-knack or two in Santa's Village! As the sun sets, walk to the American Gardens Theatre for the moving Candlelight Processional, where a celebrity narrator, backed by a massive orchestra and choir, will retell the story of Christmas. Narrators on the docket this year include Neil Patrick Harris, Virginia Madsen, Steven Curtis Chapman, and Angela Basset. After some reflection, jazz things up a bit with the thrilling IllumiNations: Reflections on Earth, which combines laser lights, fireworks, water fountains, and other pyrotechnics for a truly astonishing show.
Get Festive with Goofy at Animal Kingdom
Animals love the holidays, too, so Animal Kingdom is just as festive as the rest of the park this time of year! November 28th through January 4th, join Goofy and friends in the gleeful Mickey's Jingle Jungle Parade. Also, keep an eye (and ear) out for carolers and your most beloved Disney characters – they're known to roam the kingdom! If you're set on taking a snapshot with Goofy, Santa Goofy's Wild Wonderland is the place to be.
Christmas Shop at Downtown Disney
November 28th through December 24th, share your wish list with Santa and fulfill some of those wishes on your own as you hunt down collectables, souvenirs, ornaments, high-tech toys, and a variety of other merchandise in shops like Once Upon a Toy, LEGO Imagination Center, and World of Disney. But if you don't have any last-minute gift shopping to do or money to splurge with, a walk through Downtown Disney, with its beautifully decorated windows and buildings, is still worth it.
Book a Disney Vacation Rental
Suddenly, Christmas in Disney World doesn't seem so overwhelming. But it's clear it can get pricey. Make sure to save as much money as possible on accommodations so that you can enjoy all that Christmas in Disney World has to offer. Fortunately, plenty of spacious and affordable Disney vacation rentals are located in and around the park; no longer must you settle for overpriced resort hotels!

Dear ______________,
It is with pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for Ms. Peterson and her cat, Buddy. I wish all my residents were as well behaved as Buddy. When Ms. Peterson and Buddy vacated their apartment unit, it was in better condition than when they moved into it.
During their five-year residency at Brookside Apartments, Ms. Peterson and Buddy have been excellent members of our rental community, and I would be very happy to discuss why they should be welcomed in yours.

I'm using database peek http://wordpress.org/plugins/database-peek/ to show my database structure and have noticed that wp_postmeta has 95073 rows in it.
I noticed that a large part of them have empty values in it. Most of these are caused by a plugin that has custom fields with no meta data in it so it seems to be storing these with no value. It seems to me that they are not needed.
Is it possible or more importantly, smart to get rid of these? I've optimized the database and thought that it may fix the problem but it does not which makes me think that maybe it could be dangerous for me to delete them.
If it is ok to do, how could I do it? Would a sql command be the best way to do it and if so, what would the command be?

Breaking news, the achievement gap is widening as two schools, Monta Loma and Therakauf just entered Program Improvement with this last batch of scores. That means, parents can force the district to move them onto other higher performing campuses. The Voice could do better to report the meaning of the scores rather than just the results which don't tell the whole picture.

THE INCREDIBLE BURT WONDERSTONE is coming to theaters on March 15, 2013 from Warner Bros. Pictures. The film stars Steve Carell, Steve Buscemi, Olivia Wilde, Alan Arkin, James Gandolfini, Jay Mohr and Michael Bully Herbig. Check out the trailer below!
In the comedy, superstar magicians Burt Wonderstone (Steve Carell) and Anton Marvelton (Steve Buscemi) have ruled the Las Vegas strip for years, raking in millions with illusions as big as Burt's growing ego. But lately the duo's greatest deception is their public friendship, while secretly they've grown to loathe each other.
Facing cutthroat competition from guerilla street magician Steve Gray (Jim Carrey), whose cult following surges with each outrageous stunt, even their show looks stale. But there's still a chance Burt and Anton can save the act-both onstage and off-if Burt can get back in touch with what made him love magic in the first place.

SPOKANE, Wash. - Spokane Police arrested convicted felon 28-year-old Maceo
Williams following a foot chase that started with a report of shots fired in
Northeast Spokane. Police say Williams
ditched three loaded guns during the foot chase. They say the situation ended much better than
it could have, as Williams ignored commands to stop and put his hands
SPD says officers are trained from day one to watch a
suspect's hands at all times. SPD says
officers must assess situations on the fly and that they are often tense,
uncertain and rapidly evolving. The
department says the officer chasing Williams was able to make a peaceful arrest
without any shots fired.
law enforcement reminds citizens to always comply with instruction from officers
or deputies. Deputy Craig Chamberlain
says even if you're innocent of any wrong doing, it is essential you listen to
instruction and don't make any move that would threaten a law enforcement
officer's safety.

Throughout history, students have played a crucial role in furthering social change. During the Vietnam War, there was a nationwide youth rebellion in the U.S. against America's imperialist war in Southeast Asia and the ensuing atrocities. On university campuses across America, from the University of California, Berkeley, to Columbia University, students organized sit-ins, teach-ins and rallies, printed flyers and occupied campus buildings to protest against the injustices occurring at home and abroad. These protests were not only a sign of moral outrage; they were also strategically designed to end the involvement of American universities in perpetuating the atrocities in Vietnam and other social ills.

By Brenda L. Holmes
INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Airport Authority hosted a meeting for the West Side Chamber of Commerce in an effort to keep the organization "in the know" on what's going on at the Indianapolis International Airport.
IAA Executive Director Robert "Bob" Duncan spoke to the chamber about some of the airport's history, along with sharing what they're currently working on.
"The original airport had three runways and the longest one was 2,000 feet long," Duncan said. "We have a runway now that is 11,200 feet long and a second one that is 10,000 feet long."
He said the longer runway was designed to help facilitate the needs of the Indianapolis FedEx hub at the airport.
"We have no immediate plans to build the third runway," Duncan said. "It will not be built until the current runways are saturated.
"That's a $1 billion project. And to put that into perspective, our terminal and all its ancillary facilities was a $1 billion project. I don't think they'll build it in my lifetime."
He said the IAA has been working with airlines to get some direct flights from Indianapolis to the west coast.
"We cannot provide incentives, but we can give them all the information we have to help them make a decision," Duncan said.
Duncan also told chamber members that the old airport terminal is scheduled to be demolished by the end of this year.
"Sections of that building are between 50 and 55 years old," he said. "There has been some interest in that real estate, but people don't want to have to wait two years for it to be taken down."
He said it will take between $8 and $11 million to tear down the old facility.
IAA's Mike Huber then spoke to the chamber about development in and around the airport. Huber is the senior director of commercial enterprise.
"We're trying to market the old terminal area to aviation-related businesses," Huber said. "The runway access makes it ideal."
He said one of his main objectives right now is to find a large company or "anchor" business to come into the Washington Street corridor.
"If we get that anchor, we would have the jobs and be able to attract other businesses," he said. "Attracting that anchor will be the catalyst for that area."
The mission of the West Side Chamber of Commerce is to promote vibrant, sustainable economic development and strengthen the quality of life in Pike, Wayne, and Decatur townships, and eastern Hendricks County by attracting, retaining, and connecting businesses; advocating pro-business public policies; and assisting businesses in actively engaging in the community.

Old-fashioned Rice Pudding
This is the real thing – a mass of creamy rice and a thick brown speckled nutmeg skin. Don't forget to take a sharp knife and scrape off all the bits of caramelised skin that stick to the edges – my grandmother always did that and gave everyone an equal amount.
Serves 4-6
|4 oz (110 g) pudding rice
|14½ oz (410 g) evaporated milk
|1 pint (570 ml) whole milk
|1½ oz (40 g) golden granulated or caster sugar
|1 whole nutmeg
|1 oz (25 g) butter
|Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 2, 300°F (150°C).
|Need help with conversions?
You will also need a round ovenproof dish with a diameter of 9 inches (23 cm), 2 inches (5 cm) deep, lightly buttered.
This recipe is taken from How to Cook Book One and has also appeared in Sainsbury's Magazine (Dairy Collection).
This is simplicity itself, because all you do is mix the evaporated milk and whole milk together in a jug, then place the rice and sugar in the ovenproof dish, pour in the liquid and give it all a good stir. Grate the whole nutmeg all over the surface (it may seem a lot but it needs it), then, finally, dot the butter on top in little flecks.
Next just carefully pop the dish in the oven on the centre shelf and leave it there for 30 minutes, then slide the shelf out and give everything a good stir. Repeat the stirring after a further 30 minutes, then pop the dish back in the oven to cook for another hour, this time without stirring. At the end of this time the rice grains will have become swollen, with pools of creamy liquid all around them, and, of course, all that lovely skin!
This is wonderful served warm with Plums in Marsala, see below.

Although risotto is usually savoury, think rice pudding and you'll get the point of this lovely, unusual chocolate dessert.
Italian Rice Creams with Gooseberry and Elderflower Puree
Blackcurrants, raspberries or redcurrants can be used instead of gooseberries, but either way we just know you'll love this grown-up, prepare-ahead version of rice pudding!

Hey, you guys! Meet Nancy! Nancy's going to be contributing here, offering advice on how to most effectively integrate technology into family life and really have it enhance family life. She know what she's talking about, so you should totally listen to her. In Nancy's own words:
"Hi everyone! My name is Nancy and I work for Intel Canada and am a Mom of 2 kids. I have learned that there are some really cool things that technology can do to simplify my life. Aren't we are all looking for that perfect, portable gadget to fit into our busy, multitasking lifestyles? And looking for what is actually out there that can help us stay connected, yet mobile and productive? Well, hopefully I will be able to answer a few questions regarding the cool tools that help make our lives easier."
Take it away, Nancy!
"I'm bored"
Ughhhhh those famous summer school break words, uttered out of my son's mouth at the beginning of this summer.
How did I end up being the entertainment director for my son? I guess the only person I have to blame is myself. My son's preference would be to play video games and sit in front of the TV all day. Going out for a bike ride or finding a friend to play with isn't high on his list. He tends to be a bit of a loner. So I am always looking for interesting things to do that gets him moving.
So this summer, although this may sound a bit bizarre and every child is different, we built out a schedule that helps him know what he needs to accomplish every day. Using Google calendar and a daily web diary of 'what I did on my summer vacation' we covered the following: Keep reading…

Habitat for Humanity selects Knoxville for milestone 200,000th house build
200,001st home to be dedicated 24 minutes later in Sri Lanka
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (March 17, 2005) – Habitat for Humanity officers and representatives will join the mayors of Knoxville and Knox County Thursday morning, March 17, to celebrate a mammoth milestone – the groundbreaking for Habitat for Humanity's 200,000th home.
The home, which will house Habitat's millionth person since the global nonprofit homebuilder laid its first foundation nearly 30 years ago, is being built in the Five Points area of Knoxville. Completion and dedication of the home, which will be in August, will be followed 24 minutes later by the completion and dedication of another home – in Sri Lanka, a country hard hit by the Dec. 26, 2004, tsunami in the Indian Ocean basin. (Habitat completes a home somewhere in the world every 24 minutes, and Sri Lanka is 12 hours ahead of local time).
The 200,000th house will be built in eight days, with the dedication – a presentation of the key and a Bible – and move-in planned on the ninth day. To mark the event, a delegation from Sri Lanka will travel to Knoxville to help celebrate completion of the 200,000th house and a delegation from Knoxville will travel to Sri Lanka to be a part of the 200,001st dedication.
In addition to the press conference and groundbreaking in Knoxville, Habitat for Humanity will unveil its new worldwide logo, providing a sneak peek at the image that will symbolize Habitat's work throughout the world beginning in May 2005.
"Today begins a celebration of another significant milestone in a movement that began in 1976 in the fertile fields of South Georgia," said Paul Leonard, chief executive officer of Habitat for Humanity International. "With this house, another family plants roots deep into homeownership, sowing the seeds for a better life.
"With homeownership, with having the security of a safe and decent shelter, studies demonstrate that children perform better in schools, people get more involved in community activities and events, adults pursue greater education," Leonard said. "A house is walls and floors and a roof, but the people, this family – Koffi Kouassi and Tonya Harper – will make it a home, their home."
Leonard will join Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam and Knox County Mayor Mike Ragsdale, staff and board members from Knoxville Habitat for Humanity and others for the groundbreaking. Also expected to attend are representatives from Habitat's More than Houses donors, an unprecedented five-year effort to move Habitat into 100 countries and to raise $500 million to build 100,000 homes in five years. Habitat achieved the 100-country mark last year and the Knoxville home marks the successful close of the building phase of the campaign.
"It took 24 years for Habitat to build its first 100,000 houses," said Leonard. "But with the generosity of our More Than Houses partners and the thousands of volunteers who have helped shoulder this load, the second 100,000 was completed in just five years.
"While we celebrate this accomplishment, our work is not done," said Leonard. "We need to continue to look forward and work to build with more families, which is why immediately after we dedicate this house in August, we will dedicate the 200,001st house in Sri Lanka, beginning our march to the next milestone and fulfillment of our mission – to erase poverty housing from the planet."
"This milestone celebrates the accomplishments of Habitat for Humanity, its extensive network of volunteers and local government working together to build homes families can afford," said Haslam. "Owning your own home is the American dream and homeownership is essential for building stronger and safer neighborhoods in our city. Thanks to Habitat that dream is coming true."
Kouassi and Harper are the future homeowners chosen for the 200,000th house. Kouassi is a native of the Ivory Coast. They are a blended family with children, Kenny Harper, 20, Folasada Harper, 18, Jeminata Harper, 14, Koffi Harper, 9, N'Dah and Ayah Harper, eight-year-old twins. Kouassi is a cook, and Tonya is an assistant manager at a Goodwill store.
"Habitat for Humanity is one of the most committed and generous civic groups in our community and makes a profound difference in the lives of the people it serves," said Ragsdale. "I am ecstatic that the Harper/Kouassi family from our community is the recipient of the 200,000th house built by the organization.
"We are making a considerable effort to improve the quality of life for our citizens and move toward becoming a great American community. Habitat for Humanity is helping to make this vision a reality. Thank you, Habitat, and congratulations to you and the Harper/Kouassi family."
"Being selected as the site of this monumental build is truly an honor and will be something we as an affiliate, and as a community, will never forget," said Kelle Shultz, executive director of Knoxville Habitat for Humanity. "We are so proud of the work this ministry does and the families it serves. This build proves the mission to eliminate poverty housing transcends borders, languages and cultures. The power of people all over the world is inspiring and a constant reminder that anything is possible."

A Fort Myers Villas church was burglarized and vandalized over the weekend, according to Lee County Sheriff's Office reports.
A church trustee told deputies he arrived to the church Saturday and heard water running in the women's restroom and noticed that one of the windows in the restroom was broken, reports said.
"I came to check things out and discovered the water running in the bathroom," Billy Lather said.
What the thieves didn't steal, they vandalized.
"Why would anyone want to destroy church property? It's sad. They need help," said church member Shirley Lather.
The suspect is believed to have entered the church through the broken restroom window.
From there, the suspect went into an activities room and discharged a fire extinguisher and stole several items.
"There was dust all over where they sprayed the fire extinguisher all over everything," said Billy.
The items stolen included a digital sound mixer board, three microphones and a ViewSonic projector with a combined value of $2050.
The church is unfortunately no stranger to crime. Several years ago, a teen was arrested after deputies say he broke in, sprayed a fire extinguisher everywhere, and even urinated on the couch and chairs.
"It's very upsetting to come in and find someone vandalizing your church property," Shirley says.
The church has insurance but first has to meet the $1,000 deductible.

I've had a trio of Bruichladdich bottles on my shelf for some time now: Blacker Still, Redder Still, and Golder Still. These are largely gone, but occasionally you'll see one on the shelves or push through the sales channel, as Golder did with K&L a while back. I've had these for a while, but at a recent lunch with Sku of Sku's Recent Eats, I passed him samples of each of the three. Not much happened; he suggested that we do a joint review (is that still a thing? Maybe it's retro-revival time). A couple months passed because I still am subject to the whims of the germs my son brings into the house; and then I managed to get briefly snowed under with work.
Finally, though, here we are. The three colors of Bruichladdich. This review will in no way live up the Kieslowski trio, but as a semi-regular reader of S&I, you knew to expect that it was just a cheap culture reference, right?
These three whiskies were released in 2006, 2007 and 2008, anywhere from 3-5 years before the first "New-era" spirit from the McEwan era of Bruichladdich would be released. Blacker Still apparently hails from oloroso casks and was in wood for 20 years; Redder Still was bourbon cask aged and then was in Chateau Lafleur casks. (Bruichladdich notes — interrogatively — that this is favored by Robert Parker.) Finally, Golder Still was aged in "dumpy" bourbon hogsheads; apparently this promoted additional wood contact and an "older style". Fantastic. Now that we've recounted the thumbnail sketch of these whiskies, there's little left to do but drink them, make some cheap jokes, and assign them a place in the pantheon of Limited Edition Whiskies We Have Chatted Enjoyably About.
Golder Still is the one I have the most experience with; I first purchased a bottle in the dying days of my association with a music startup in 2011. It was both a luxury buy and evening companion to help unwind in the hotel rooms, but I think it also helped me escape the unpleasant truth that I was going to be moving on. In spite of that, I still have only good memories of it. But that was several years ago. How about now?
The nose of Golder Still leads with a slight caramel sweetness with some straightforward malt; there's some subtle floral hints and a little faint herbaceous grassiness. It's a little more plain than I remember it being. The palate leads with a sort of half-waterlogged oak, watery and woody but kind of lacking focus. There's pepper and a considerable malt profile, and heat grows.
The finish is more oak but drying out and getting a bit of focus, some Sichuan pepper for that pleasant tingle in the lips, and some fairly sweet malty notes. It's agreeable but not really unique. That's not to say it's not worth a try, but at the prices this one is going to command today (unless you're the benefactor of a Driscollian blowout), it's not really a great bang for the buck. Golder Still was distilled in '84 and bottled in '08 at 23y.
Redder Still was probably the biggest enigma of the bunch for me. I'd heard people call it out as an oddball in the past; though certainly not in the same tone as the late stages of the Chenin Blanc… thing. This has the dubious distinction of a wine finish; a great gimmick for a while (and occasionally successful, even at the House That Remy Bought) but frequently just a way to mask a substandard casks. For a while we even kind of, sort of dug it. I think it's a much tougher sell these days. Redder Still was distilled in '84, bottled in '07 at 22y and 50%.
The nose of Redder Still has a moderately woody backbone, but some fruity roundness smooths it out a bit – Gala apple's taste kind of jumps out at me. There's some white pepper and pear; it has this almost quasi-sherried dimension, but the fruit notes aren't as dark and deep, nor as dimensional. With a little bit more air, it gets to be a bit more floral and shows a light vanilla character. It's gentle at first in the palate, with a little heat growing, kind of mixing the tingly lip feel of Sichuan pepper and more of a white pepper quality as well. There's the apple/pear sweetness from the nose, a faint bit of honey, and then some oaky, spicy flavor. The vanilla note from the nose is lightly present here, but the palate eventually is dominated by the drier oak notes, as well as a bit of tobacco.
The finish isn't amazing. It starts fairly dry and bitter with oak and pepper, but it resolves to something a little less bitter, and the late-palate tobacco shows up. It's an interesting and layered whisky, but the fruit hinted at on the nose gets overrun by the heavy oak presence on the palate. It makes for an uneasy attempt at balance, and I'm not sure it really works. It's an interesting drink if you're in the mood for what it has to offer, though.
Finally, Blacker Still. This one has been the star of this trio for some time; its high reviews at LAWS (from the early days!) brought Bruichladdich as a whole to my attention.
It's an interesting thing in this day and age: the two-decade-old cask with a heavy sherry component. We see less of these than we did even a few years ago; though occasionally it's seen. Usually these are slam dunks for A-range whiskies, generally regarded as great stuff. There have been some slam dunks; the most recent winner in my mind was the K&L/Exclusive Malts Longmorn that was an absolute winner.
Blacker Still has that nose out of the gate. It's rich and deep, slightly sticky-sweet fig quality, some molasses and brown sugar. It's faintly leathery in a good way (more and more sherried whisky smells like cheap patent leather, it seems) and overall syrupy. The palate continues that syrupy character; it's thick, rich and coating. It's got a full mouthfeel and just screams "sherry" with dark fruits, a little white pepper spice and a faint dab of cayenne. More figs and molasses.
The finish is again – surprise! – stamped with a sherry influence, some leather, molasses, and caramelized sugar. There's a lingering dark fruit presence as well. It's just a great whiskey. Is it a staggering, world-beating, grab-this-at-auction-price-be-damned one? No. It's the best of the Still series by a wide margin, but it's probably not in my top five sherried whiskies of the last decade. Maybe top ten? I'd have to think on that. This is worth a try but I'd say the hype has exaggerated its legend slightly. I think there are cleaner, better sherried whiskies out there — Glendronach, Glenfarclas, the aforementioned Longmorn and Tun 1401 come to mind.
It's a fun experiment to look at these whiskies from the period when Bruichladdich was still trying to establish itself. It differs markedly from the lighter, apple-forward stuff from the 1970s; it doesn't have the lactic character that (to me) defines much of the modern Bruichladdich output. Also fun will be reading the conclusions reached at Sku's Recent Eats, with his companion review up now.
At a glance:
Bruichladdich Blacker Still 20y 50.7% ABV
Nose: Rich, deep sherry on the nose, slightly sticky-sweet fig, maybe a touch of molasses, some brown sugar. faint nice leather, syrupy.
Palate: Syrupy, thick, rich and coating; very full mouthfeel, great sherry presence with some white pepper spice, maybe a faint dab of cayenne. Figgy, molasses again, with some dark fruits.
Finish: Tons of rich sherry influence, a little faint leather, a touch of molasses sweetness, some caramelized sugar; lingering dark fruit.
Comment: Everything you want. Just a fantastic whiskey.
Rating: A-
Bruichladdich Redder Still 22y 50.4% ABV
Nose: A backbone of moderate wood, with some fruity roundness – a touch of Gala apple. A little white pepper and a touch of pear; with a kind of quasi-sherry dimension to it, but not quite as much dimension as a sherry-aged whisky would have. With some air it gets a touch more floral and exhibits a light vanilla note.
Palate: Gentle on the mouthfeel, moderate with a little peppery heat growing – a mixture of sichuan and white peppers. Some apple/pear sweetness, with a little faint hint of honey, and then a little more oaky, spicy richness. The vanilla note from the nose is present but in the background, dominated by the drier notes as well as some tobacco.
Finish: A bit bitter and dry at first; some oak and lingering pepper; eventually resolves towards a little less bitter oak and some tobacco.
Comment: Interesting and layered, but a bit of an uneasy balance between the fruit and sweetness and the drier oak and tobacco.
Rating: B-
Bruichladdich Golder Still 23y 51% ABV
Nose: Light slightly caramel sweetness with some straightforward maltiness, a subtle floral hint. Ever so faint grassiness.
Palate: Semi-waterlogged oak, a little pepper, fairly malty against an increasing heat.
Finish: Drying oak, a little sichuan pepper, fairly malty sweetness.
Comment: Generally agreeable but not incredibly unique.
Rating: B-

I'm trying to test my web app on my phone, but for some reason, I am no longer seeing the latest version when on the phone when I deploy the app (for testing via ShortURL). I have confirmed the build is being successfully uploaded by modifying the initial page and opening the URL on my PC browser, but the Nokia browser on the phone is still showing me the version I uploaded at the end of last week.
I've tried clearing the personal data from the nokia browser, but that had no effect, so the only other thing I can think of is that the phone is caching the app itself, somewhere. Does anyone have any idea where it is and how I can delete it, or if something else is going on here?
Phone is a Nokia C2-02, and I'm using the latest version of the Nokia Browser (I deleted and redownloaded it earlier, but it had no effect), if that makes any difference.

If this home is rented or you are looking for more units in the same building with 2 bedrooms each, there are two more units available next door!
