The man who police say fired at officers and barricaded himself inside his Warminster apartment for almost seven hours is behind bars, being held on $10 million bail. At the same time, authorities identified the elderly woman killed in the crossfire.Andrew Cairns kept quiet as police escorted him into district court Wednesday. The 49-year-old had more to say once inside, where he was accused of attempting to murder six police officers. Cairns asked the judge to release him on his own recognizance, but the judge laughed and instead told Cairns he'd have to post 10 percent, or $1 million, to get bail.Cairns afterwards insisted to reporters he was innocent. But police say he's the reason an elderly woman is dead. It all started just before 8 o'clock Tuesday night, at the back of a large apartment complex on Street Road. According to investigators, Cairns' girlfriend called police, saying he wanted to shoot himself. When officers arrived, they say he shot at them instead. So they fired back.Renee Sharon, a resident of the apartment complex, peeked out her door to see what was happening. "The police officer yelled to me, get in! And I'm hearing these blasts, oh my God." Basil Milton, another resident, described what happened as the standoff stretched on. "They just kept on asking him to surrender and come out, and he wasn't showing up."The elderly victim, identified as 89-year-old Marie Zienkewicz, lived in the apartment just below Cairns. Zienkewicz died in the crossfire, from a gunshot to her chest. Detectives are investigating who actually fired the fatal shot. "It's a terrible tragedy no matter who's at fault here," Matt Weintraub, a Bucks County Assistant District Attorney told reporters. "Obviously that still needs to be sorted out," Weintraub added.Two women actually could have died in the gun battle Tuesday night. A bullet traveled through the apartment complex, across all four lanes of busy Street Road, and into the back of a home about a half mile away. The slug entered Deanna Gorman's bedroom, just above her bed. "All I know is that I was sitting in the computer room when I heard this loud bang," Gorman said.Cairns eventually surrendered about 2:30 Wednesday morning. He's charged with attempted murder, but the assistant DA said more charges could still be filed.

Thousands of fans came out to support the Oklahoma City Thunder during their latest playoff game; all of whom knowing in advance they could not get tickets to the game.
"This is actually my first night coming out," said Thunder fan Deon Lusk. "I've been hearing about it and it's first time checking it out and I think it's something nice."
And it was all free entertainment for those willing to watch the game on the state's largest jumbotron televison. It's attached to the side of the Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Of course there are plenty of food and drink vendors along with game centers set up to keep people occupied.
Even when the skies opened up for a torrential downpour in the second half, the faithful Oklahoma City fans were not deterred. And they were rewarded with another close Thunder playoff victory to take a 2-0 series lead over the Dallas Mavericks.

Score Breakdown based on
4 Reviews
2.4 on May 29, 2013
We were two parents and a 21 year old son traveling together. The location was perfect. Despite having paid our deposit nearly two months in advance, our room was not ready at 10 pm. The photos of the interior are not accurate; there was a massage table in our room. Part of the space is rented out to cranial-sacral and massage therapists, and there were brochures for a wide range of alternative treatments including sexual mastery. Our double bed had no bottom sheet, and the single sheet provided moved around in the night making for uncomfortable sleep. Our room faced a quiet courtyard, thankfully, given the reviews for a different Skindergade apartment The owner has two spacious apartments in an old building. He was often in the main living room and kitchen but it was unclear where he slept. Beautiful floors and windows. We felt secure in the building. Small shared living rooms were cozy but large front rooms ( the main photo) were discombobulated with furniture, yoga mats, umbrellas piled willy-nilly. Wi-fi was available only about 33% of the time depending on location of the router; Stefan needs to add a booster. One night there was a workshop being held in one of the large rooms which definitely did not feel like a B and B! Hakura, Inga and Martin were there along with Stefan so there appears to have been personnel turnover since the other reviews; there was no sign of Suzanne Darmer. The breakfast offered for 100K EACH is a roll, a tasty smoothie, tea, 3 pats of butter, peanut butter and jam packets and a loaf of bread (which was perhaps offered for us to take for lunches but we didn't understand that). For comparison, our 3 nights here cost 3600 DK (not including breakfast) whereas 2 nights at a Radisson Blu in Oslo (booked well in advance) cost 3790 NOK, but the Radisson included a full breakfast. Different experiences for sure!

This was a last minute find and so much better than staying in a hotel. Staying here made this such an enjoyable visit to Copenhagen. Just around the corner from the University and a range of great cafes and restaurants (try Paludans). We hope to be back again in future and would definitely recommend Old City B&B to others. Mikkel was great, very helplful and told us about a wonderful Indian restaurant (Shahi). Janet (Perth, WA).

position very central (center of the center) - pleasant atmosphere - Mikkel and Didda very kindly persons. book without hesitation. best regards, Pierpaolo & Daniela
3.6 on June 07, 2011
In the expensive Copenhagen, this B&B is a great solution for people with low budget. We stayed there for a weekend and enjoyed the tasteful decoration, the great breakfast and Didda and Mikkel's availability and advice. The B&B is located right in the middle of the city center, with many restaurants, shops, and within walking distance of the metro (line 2 to the airport) and main sites.

Sources are told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that the Seahawks have signed free agent WR Brandon Stokley and will cut RB Quinton Ganther to make room on the roster. Other media outlets in Seattle have confirmed the move.
Ganther's agency confirmed via Twitter that he has been cut and already contacted by multiple teams.
The Broncos released Stokley on Sept. 14 after reaching an injury settlement with the team. The Broncos placed him on injured reserve with a groin injury on Sept. 4.
In three seasons in Denver, Stokley caught 108 passes for 1,490 yards and 12 TDs. He spent time with current Seahawks offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates in Denver.
The way we see it
This is likely a reaction to No. 1 WR Mike Williams dealing with a shoulder injury. Stokley is a serviceable slot guy and Pete Carroll likes to make moves. Ganther was signed as a FB but Bates rarely uses one in his offense. The signing of RB Michael Robinson and emergence of RB Leon Washington made Ganther expendable.

Prep Time: 3 and 1/2 HoursYields: 4 Servings
Comment:Country Boy Gator in Eunice, La. is a unique supplier of alligator meat. Not only do they sell gator legs, plain and marinated, they also sell fillets as well as pre-breaded, ready to fry meat. I used the small legs of the gator to make this recipe. I first prepared this dish for Bob Kellermann with Lodge Cast Iron at a log cabin in the swamps of Louisiana. It is an old recipe from the Creole kitchen and one of the best methods of cooking alligator is slow braising in a Dutch oven and smothered in a rich Creole sauce.
4 pounds Country Boy Gator trimmed alligator legs, bone-insalt and black pepper to tastegranulated garlic to taste1/2 cup vegetable oil1 cup flour2 cups diced onions1 cup diced celery1 cup diced green bell peppers1/4 cup minced garlic1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained1 (10-ounce) can ROTEL1 (10-ounce) can tomato puree2 cups chicken or beef stock 1/2 cup dry red wine1 tsp chopped thyme1 tbsp chopped basil1 bay leaf2 cups sliced mushrooms1/2 cup chopped parsley, divided 1/2 cup sliced green onions
Method:Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Season alligator legs well with salt, pepper and granulated garlic and set aside. In a large Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Dust alligator lightly with flour, shaking off excess. Place legs in hot oil and brown lightly on all sides. Remove alligator from pot and set aside. Add onions, celery, bell peppers and minced garlic and saute 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Add tomatoes, ROTEL, tomato puree, stock, wine, thyme, basil and bay leaf, scraping the bottom to release browned bits. Return alligator to pot and add mushrooms. Cover and bake for 2 and 1/2-3 hours or until meat is tender. Remove from oven and stir in 1/4 cup parsley and green onions. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Adjust seasonings with salt, pepper and granulated garlic if necessary. Remove bay leaf and discard. Serve hot over steamed white rice, pasta or grits and garnish with additional parsley.

An American study abroad student who opened fire in an Eilat hotel, killing a
coworker before anti-terror police stormed the building, took his own life as
police closed in, according to the results of an internal police inquiry
released on Tuesday.
In the days after the October 5 shooting, police
said William Hershkovitz, a 23- year-old native of Poughkeepsie, New York, was
shot to death by officers of the police counterterrorism unit after he opened
fire on them as they moved into to arrest him.
On Tuesday, the national
police headquarters said: "The operations branch has presented the Police
inspector- general with the findings of a special task force set up to examine
how the police operated on that day and how they collaborated with IDF
anti-terror forces.
"The findings of the investigation indicate that the
hotel worker William Hershkovitz took his own life by shooting himself during
the raid by the anti-terror unit."
Hershkovitz was in Israel as a part of
the Israel Way program.
Supported by the Jewish Agency, the program
brings Jews from around the world for volunteer work, study and internships.
Police said Hershkovitz was fired from his internship at the hotel kitchen the
day before he returned and shot and killed his former manager, Armando Abed,
from Mi'ilya, a Christian village in the Western Galilee.
Hershkovitz did
not try to take hostages or make any demands while holed up in the hotel
kitchen, police said.

Hereford woman raising funds in memory of her dad
Updated 10:37am Monday 10th March 2014 in News
A HEREFORD woman is taking on the disease that killed her dad by raising money for the charity looking for a cure.
Jade Marsh's dad Dylan Toney died in December, aged just 51, 10 days short of an 11-month battle with motor neurone disease (MND).
Jade has been raising funds for the Motor Neurone Disease Association since her dad was diagnosed with the illness and has no intention of stopping any time soon.
Jade said: "He had a really aggressive form, but it took him away much quicker than I ever expected, or let myself believe.
"I'm still just as eager to raise money and awareness for MND, because I hate to think of other people going through this. I live in hope of a cure for so many other people suffering with this awful illness."
She is taking on the London Marathon on April 13 and has so far raised £5,719.
"This is an event that was booked long before dad died, and I had hoped that he would be there to support me on the day, but the sad reality is, I will now be doing it in his memory," Jade said.
MND is a fatal neurological disease that leaves people locked in a failing body, unable to move, walk, talk and eventually breathe.
There is currently no cure.
To support Jade's MND fundraising efforts visit justgiving.com/Jade-Marsh1
She is also raising money for St Michael's Hospice which supported her dad throughout his illness.
"Dad was admitted on December 13 and received the most outstanding care we could have wished for. All staff involved in his care worked endlessly to make him as comfortable as possible and I truly believe that because of their efforts, my dad had the most dignified death possible," Jade said.
"Myself, my mum, and dad's brother were also very well looked after by everyone there, making a terrible time much more bearable.
"When dad was alive he always spoke very highly of the hospice, and had the utmost respect for his consultant there."
To say thank you, Jade and her mum are taking part in a sponsored wing-walk on June 22 and are hoping to raise around £1,000.
They have personally funded the event so 100 per cent of money raised will go directly to the hospice.
It costs £12,000 per day to run the hospice and only approximately 10 per cent comes from statutory resources.

Gore/Clark/Hagel/Gingrich/Thompson - Debate?
by howardpark, Mon Mar 12, 2007 at 08:14:54 AM EDT
I want to be the first to propose that Al Gore, Wes Clark, Newt Gingrich, Chuck Hagel & Fred Thompson have a Maybe Presidential Debate. An ideal moderator would be Mario Cuomo who spent most of 1988 and 1992 deciding on a presidential candidacy which never made it off the runway of an airport tarmac in Albany. Heck, maybe Cuomo is considering a run. Anybody but Fox "News" or Fox's print inspiration, the Washington Times, should run the debate.
Of course I'm being sarcastic but actually it would be a great debate, probably better than we will see from any of the announced candidates. I also have no doubt that any of those possible candidates would be more interesting as a maybe candidate than as a real candidate.
Its been ages -- at least 5 years since they used to do it occasionally on PBS -- that there has been a real debate on TV or anywhere else that I can think of besides some college late at night on C-SPAN. I'm not counting the joint appearences that we will all be subjected to as a part of the election cycle. In such joint appearences the only thing that counts is what they don't say which is usually a lot. "Debates" among the candidates today are really collective gaffe watches -- the only real question is will somebody say something really, really stupid.
Sarcastic or not a Gore/Clark/Gingrich/Hegal/Thompson debate would be worth watching and stranger things have happened. They could have it in a non-early primary/caucus state. A real debate between, say, Clark & Gore on one side & Hagel & Gingrich on the other would sure beat a wasted evening with Chris Matthews or Wolf Blitzer. Why not?

MIAMI (AP) -- Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat is becoming an author.
William Morrow announced plans Wednesday to publish "A Father First: How My Life Became Bigger than Basketball," to be released in September. The book talks in part about Wade's struggles growing up in Chicago and how he's incorporating some of the lessons he learned into raising his own family.
Wade tells The Associated Press that it was "therapeutic" to open up about certain elements of his life.
Wade was awarded sole custody of his two sons in March 2011 after a long court battle with his ex-wife, who remains in the boys' lives. The 2006 NBA finals MVP and eight-time All-Star says he hopes the book shows his fans a side of him they haven't already seen.
Morrow is an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers.

If over the next few days your friends begin exchanging such cryptic phrases as "lace man" and "chicken of the cave," followed by helpless guffaws, the reason is clear. They've seen "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues."
The follow-up to a classic is tough to pull off. "Anchorman 2" is Will Ferrell's "Exile on Main Street" or "Physical Graffiti," a somewhat baggy successor to a gem. It may not leave the same imprint on American culture as its super-quotable predecessor. But it has moments of howling hilarity and the improvisatory spirit that gave Ron Burgundy's origin story its shaggy, ramshackle charm.
Having conquered the San Diego TV news market in the 1970s, then lost it all through hubris (shocking, isn't it?), the obtuse news reader is recruited to help fill time in a new, 1980s concept: a 24-hour news channel. Ferrell, whose grasp on anvil-headed stupidity has never been firmer, rounds up his news team (Steve Carell, Paul Rudd and David Koechner, a formidable band of cut-ups) to take New York by storm.
Ron's path is impeded by the prettier, slicker hairdo anchoring the prime-time slot (James Marsden, who holds his own nicely). He also runs afoul of his sultry African-American boss (Meagan Good). When they meet he can't stop blurting out the word "black." When they become an item and he greets her prim and proper family with thug slang, it gets exquisitely uncomfortable.
"Anchorman 2" communicates an almost childlike delight in big, silly, naughty jokes. Ferrell, who again shares writing credits with director Adam McKay, salts some savvy satire into the script.
Ron accidentally invents every pernicious, substance-strangling trend in today's ratings-driven TV news ecosystem. The cable news channel is even owned by a greedy, corrupt Australian (Josh Lawson). I wonder who inspired that?

Wales call for Coombs
11:08am Tuesday 15th January 2013 in Sport By Chris Kirwan
NEWPORT Gwent Dragons lock Andrew Coombs has been named in Wales' squad for the Six Nations.
The 28-year-old is one of five uncapped players in their 35-man squad along with Ospreys wing Eli Walker, Ospreys lock James King, and Cardiff Blues backrowers Josh Navidi and Andries Pretorius.
Coombs' selection is a story to rival that of Lloyd Burns, the Dragons hooker who went from being a bricklayer playing with Cross Keys to representing Wales in a World Cup.
Like Burns, Coombs earned a professional contract in 2010 after impressing in the Premiership where he captained Newport from number eight.
He made a mark at regional level with a number of abrasive performances in the back row and then shone when injuries forced the Dragons to play him as an emergency lock.
Coombs suffered a knee injury on the opening day of the season and made his return in the Amlin Challenge Cup in December.
He hit the ground running and his fiesty performances in the festive derbies have earned him an international call.
Wales have been particularly badly hit in the second-row department, with Alun-Wyn Jones, Luke Charteris and Bradley Davies currently unavailable to interim head coach Rob Howley and not named in his initial Six Nations squad.
Fly-half Rhys Priestland and prop Aaron Jarvis, meanwhile, are also injury absentees as Wales build towards the opening game of their Six Nations title defence against Ireland on February 2.
There are recalls for Clermont Auvergne full-back Lee Byrne, who has not featured in a Wales matchday 23 since the 2011 World Cup, and Exeter prop Craig Mitchell.
Star prop Adam Jones also returns after missing the entire autumn Test series this season because of injury and Howley will hope that some of his other injured contingent, including Dragons flanker Dan Lydiate, can play some part in the tournament.
Former Wales captain Ryan Jones is also named in the squad, although his participation against Ireland and then France seven days later is currently doubtful due to a dislocated thumb injury.
Pretorius apart, there are few surprises with the uncapped contingent.
Walker and Australia-born King have both been in outstanding form for the Ospreys, as has Coombs in Dragons colours and former Wales Under-20 captain Navidi for the Blues.
King has English parents, but he was initially brought up in north Wales and played for Mold Rugby Club.
Howley said: "We have put together a very experienced squad and complimented that by rewarding the in-form players with a call-up.
"The players in the squad have been playing really well, and we have been pleased with their individual performances.
"We have a group of players who know how to win big matches and have experienced success. We are adding to that players who have stood out and performed well for the regions this season."
Wales squad for the RBS 6 Nations Championship.
Backs: L Byrne (Clermont Auvergne), Liam Williams (Scarlets), L Halfpenny (Cardiff Blues), E Walker (Ospreys), G North (Scarlets), A Cuthbert (Cardiff Blues), S Williams (Scarlets), J Roberts (Cardiff Blues), J Davies (Scarlets), J Hook (Perpignan), D Biggar (Ospreys), M Phillips (Bayonne), T Knoyle (Scarlets), Lloyd Williams (Cardiff Blues).
Forwards: S Andrews (Cardiff Blues), C Mitchell (Exeter), A Jones (Ospreys) P James (Bath), G Jenkins (Toulon), R Bevington (Ospreys), R Hibbard (Ospreys), K Owens (Scarlets), M Rees (Scarlets), R Jones (Ospreys) L Reed (Blues), I Evans (Ospreys), J King (Ospreys), A Coombs (Newport Gwent Dragons), J Turnbull (Scarlets), J Navidi (Cardiff Blues), A Shingler (Scarlets), J Tipuric (Ospreys), S Warburton (Cardiff Blues, capt) T Faletau (Newport Gwent Dragons), A Pretorius (Cardiff Blues).

Sammy's Great Escape begins straight after the events of A Turtle's Tale with Sammy (voiced by Wesley Johnny) and his sweetheart Shelley (Isabelle Fuhrman) proudly welcoming their tiny grandchildren into the world. Nearby, Sammy's best friend Ray (Carlos McCullers II) and his soulmate take care of their brood. The turtles are so focused on airborne attacks from seagulls, they fail to notice poachers, who capture Sammy and Ray and transport the animals to a undersea complex.

Morris did a crap job and set things back. Not a reason to say Schiano will do the same. Give the guy a chance. AT LEAST wait to see who the coordinators will be.
I'm eating crow too, I wanted Fax Machine to be our head coach. Just ran into Fax Machine last week, messed up my order at McDonalds.
Hey, these are fair game. It's okay to have a few bumped threads from the past every now and again. I remember making a terrible prediction without letting things play out at all, gave it no thought whatsoever. I got called out on it. For some reason, I thought the past would stay there, like the first rule of Fight Club or something... it didn't work that way. Granted I'm still wrong a lot nowadays, I make considerably less terrible predictions because of that lol.

Is David Young Channeling George Harrison?

It's as simple as that.

Sirens and Ice with New Artist Young Summer
On this week's show, Matt and Shawn extensively discuss the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. Matt also shares his good news, and had a busy week!
And this wek's #NUartist is Young Summer! There's one strong word Young Summer (aka Bobby Allen) uses to describe her creative process: "deliberate." From the synthesizer sounds that shift with each track; to mining her favorite '80s influences such as The Cure, Prince and Sinead O'Connor; to the songwriting process and order of the tracks, she refused to leave anything to chance. As a result, her new album Siren flows and swirls in dreamy electro-pop fashion and true to the title, spotlights a gossamer voice that floats on the surface of each song, luring the listener in.

I'll Have a Medium, Please ---The Spoken Word!
What is spoken word poetry?
"Spoken word poetry is poetry that is written on a page but performed for an audience. Because it is performed, this poetry tends to demonstrate a heavy use of rhythm, improvisation, free association, rhymes, rich poetic phrases, word play and slang. It is more aggressive and "in your face" than more traditional forms of poetry."

Two brothers will spend the rest of their lives in prison for running a multi-million dollar drug business from their Donalsonville home.
U.S. District Judge Louis Sands handed down the life sentences to 29-year old Carlos Johnson and his older brother 35-year old Kelvin Johnson after a lengthy hearing at the C.B. King Courthouse in Albany Thursday afternoon.
Under federal sentencing guidelines, neither brother will be eligible for parole.
The Johnson brothers argued at their hearing sentencing guidelines should have been below the standard for life in prison based on their cooperation with authorities after their arrest in March of 2011.
Federal prosecutors say instead of cooperating, the Johnson brothers resumed their drug dealing business when they were let out on a two month furlough in the fall of 2011 to help a federal dog fighting investigation in Alabama.
The brothers also objected to their bribery of a former Pataula Drug Task Force agent counting against them in the sentencing guidelines.
According to statements during Thursday's sentencing hearing, Robert Nicholson was fired in 2010 from the Pataula Drug Task Force after admitting to federal prosecutors he passed via a confidential informant sensitive law enforcement information to the Johnson brothers.
Bainbridge Public Safety officer Franklin Green, who was the lead investigator in the case, testified Thursday the investigation into the Johnson brothers could not have started until Nicholson was gone from the Pataula Drug Task Force.Nicholson was sentenced last fall after pleading guilty to obstruction.
A third defendant in the case Antonio Wimbush received a sentence of just over seven years for his role in the ring Thursday afternoon.
Judge Sands called this drug ring one of the largest he has ever seen with him estimating 27-28 have been sentenced so far and more arrests could come as the investigation is said to be still active.

The Rodney Dangerfield "Stand Up Stand Out Award" is given to support emerging stand-up comedians who exemplify the attributes Rodney would look for when booking talent for his HBO shows which featured such originals as Sam Kinison, Roseanne Barr, Jerry Seinfeld and other notables. All of them went on to become super stars.

Shortly after the Red Sox won the World Series Wednesday, the party started at UMass in Amherst.
CBS 3 Springfield's Bill Rapp said the celebration started peacefully but took a rowdy turn.
UMass hasn't confirmed any students have been arrested, but witnesses have reported seeing students being taken away by officers.
There have been reports of students lighting objects like sweatshirts on fire and throwing them into the crowd.
Police have used tear gas, riot shields, loud sounds and other crowd-dispersing techniques on hundreds of students who gathered after the game.
Witnesses say there are dozens of police officers on campus. Police are also using dogs and mounted officers for crowd control.
The school has been using its official Twitter account to try to get students to celebrate safely.
Shortly after the Red Sox won, the school tweeted, "Your actions tonight have consequences. If you engage in reckless crowd behavior, you can be arrested. #umass."
@UmassAmherst then tweeted around 11:45 p.m., "Breaking trees and engaging in other destructive behavior will get you arrested. Think before you jeopardize your future. Show #UMassPride."
The school hoped prevent any form of riot after the game by offering free food and a big screen to watch Game 6 of the World Series.
Police said earlier this week they hoped to have a "hands off" approach this year unless the celebration got out of hand.
UMass has had a history of riots after New England sports championship games.

Greensburg Daily News
Greensburg — Richard Lewis was one of the signers of a petition circulated years before the occurrence of 1907.
That petition asked that African American children be able to attend school with white children. Richard Lewis' son, David Robert Lewis, was born. Lewis graduated from Greensburg High in the class of 1879 with 25 other graduates. The class of 1890 had two African American students, Andrew Brooks and Elizabeth Wylie. There were only 18 graduates that year. Maggie Lewis graduated with 29 other students in the class of 1891.
Oscar Langston, another graduate of Greensburg High School attended college and became a dentist in Indianapolis. It should be noted that many residents of Greensburg, Decatur County and other counties and states did not graduate from high school in those days.
After David Robert Lewis (usually signed his name D. Robert Lewis) graduated from high school, he enrolled at Purdue University. He earned a B.S. in Civil Engineering and became Purdue's first Black Engineering graduate. His senior thesis was titled "Highway Road Construction." He went on to teach mechanical drawing at Virginia's Hampton Institute for 12 years, before settling into a successful career as a real estate broker in Pittsburgh, Virginia.
Until 1894 African Americans in Greensburg had met for Christian services in private homes during the 1860s and 1870s, and later services were held in a room on the southwest corner of the square. In 1894 Cortez and Mary Ewing, Samuel A. and Abbie A. Bonner, Marine D, unmarried, Benjamin F. and Ellen E. Bennett, for the consideration of $280, sold to the African M.E. Church of Greensburg, commonly known as Bethel Mission Church of Greensburg, Lot 10 and the East one-half of Lot 9 in Jas. N. Anderson's subdivision of Out-lots 1,2,3 & 4 of Thomas Hendricks addition to the town (now city) of Greensburg. (Deed dated May 4, 1894, recorded May 5, 1894).
A church was built on the property that same year. The one room frame building was on the corner of Lincoln and North streets. Members built a parsonage just west of the church.
Pastors in the later history of the church included Jasper Siler who was pastor at the time of the 1907 incident. Trustees included Samuel T. Evans, Adolphus Frazier and W. S. Meadows. Stewards included Irene Hood, W. S. Meadows and Adolphus Frazier. President of the Missionary Society was Mrs. W. S. Meadows. In 1915 the church had 20 active members, a Sunday school of 14 youngsters.
The church was active until the membership started to decline around 1919 and the last service was held Jan. 31, 1921. The church and land were sold in June 1929 but not recorded until December that year. Anna Davis, representing the trustees of the church, signed for the African M.E. Church to the Board of Church Extension, The decision to sell the property was apparently helped along with the declining health of two of the trustees Irene Hood and Nellie Johnson who were both deceased by October 1929.
The church had been given a large bible by the First Presbyterian Church in Greensburg on May 13, 1914. When the church closed the bible was given to Anna Davis, last trustee of the church, by Julius Brooks. The building was used for a home at various times after religious services were no longer held there and was finally fell into disrepair and condemned by the state fire marshal. The church was torn down in December 1939 by Ed Applegate who had purchased the building from William A Stewart of Indianapolis. Anna Davis' daughter Gertrude Longmyre gave the bible to the local historical society as well as pictures of her family.
Before and after 1907 African Americans in Greensburg did not live in ghetto like conditions. Their homes were scattered over the city from South East Street to North Lincoln Street, McKee Street, East North Street, East Central Ave., West Washington Street and Forsythe Street.
Adolphus Frazier was a plumber for a large local hardware store, Bonner, Hart and Martin. His brother William "Billy" was a horseman for Web Woodfill who had a store on the square. James Wright lived on South East Street across from the paint store. His wife had two daughters Maude and Eleanor Primm.
William Meadows was a barber with a shop in the basement of the DeArmond Hotel. He was born in 1860 and was 47 in 1907. He died in Greensburg in 1923.
Next week we'll continue a bit about families here before and after 1907.

To make sure a particular relationship is long lasting you should fill one glass with water, offer a sip to your lover and take one sip yourself; you should then break this glass. The pieces from breaking the glass should be properly buried in a backyard. You could even adorn yourself with copper jewellery, this is said to spark an individual's love life.

Pinole and the other cities in West Contra Costa County have launched a formal review period for a proposed "plastic bag ban," which would apply also to throw-away paper bags.
The cities have been working with RecycleMore, the waste management agency for West Contra Costa, to jointly develop a model ordinance for the ban, which would be considered by each jurisdiction for adoption. The county is involved too since the law could apply to unincorporated areas of west county.
The effort could receive a lukewarm response from the Pinole City Council, which declined to be an active partner in drafting a regional ordinance a year ago. Pinole Councilman Pete Murray to participate in the developing the ordinance, but his motion died for a lack of a second vote in support. Other council members said they wanted more information before supporting the idea of an ordinance.
The law would prohibit any retailer, except restaurants and non-profit charitable organizations that sell used goods, from providing a single-use plastic or paper bag at the "point of sale" (cash register) for taking items from the business.
The ban would not apply to bags used to transport items inside the business, such as bags used by manufacturers to package goods or bags provided in the produce section of grocery stores for customers to carry produce to the check-out stand.
An exception would allow "recycled paper bags" to be issued at the check-out stand if such bags are not made from old-growth trees, contain at least 40-percent recycled material and are 100-percent recyclable. The merchant would be required to charge at least 5 cents for such bags or for reusable bags. Two years after the ordinance is adopted the retailer can make the recycled paper bags available for a minimum of 10 cents a bag.
Offering recycled paper bags or reusable bags to customers to carry goods out of the store would be required, not an option. Customers on low-income government assistance programs would not be charged.
The customer receipt would have to show the number of recycled paper bags provided and the amount charged for them. And retailers would be required annually to report to the city manager (or designee) the number of recycled paper bags provided, the amount collected for such bags and a summary of efforts to promote reusable bags.
Enforcement would be up the city managers (or designees) of each city. A violation would first trigger a warning, with subsequent violations subject to fines that could reach $500 per day.
"The proposed ordinance is intended to facilitate and encourage the widespread use of reusable bags – bags that can be used multiple times, not once or twice and then discarded," according to a RecycleMore study of the proposed ordinance.
The RecycleMore study, known formally as an "Initial Study," is the first stage of required environmental review mandated by the California Environmental Quality Act. The study, which includes the draft ordinance in the appendix, is attached to this article.
As part of the environmental review process, RecycleMore also announced its intent to adopt a "Negative Declaration," which means that the Initial Study found that no adverse environmental impacts would be caused by the ordinance and that an Environmental Impact Report is unnecessary. The notice of intended Negative Declaration also is attached to this article.
RecycleMore is required to submit the proposed Negative Declaration and Initial Study for public review and a 30-day comment period. The comment period began Aug. 6 and ends Sept. 5. The agency will also hold two public hearings during the comment period:
- Hercules Public Library, 109 Civic Dr., Aug. 15, 6:30 p.m.
- Richmond City Council Chambers, 440 Civic Center Plaza, Aug. 28, 5:30 p.m.
Recyclemore said its board will also hold a public hearing on the proposed ordinance and that prior to adoption each jurisdiction would do the same. The member cities are El Cerrito, Hercules, Pinole, Richmond and San Pablo, in additon to Contra Costa County.
The 165-page Initial Study includes extensive information about the threats to wildlife and the environment caused by discarded plastic bags. It also discusses the costs of throw-away paper bags, including the loss of trees and environmental toll of their production and even the process of recycling them.

Regis College Haiti Project (RCHP)
Conceived in 2007, the Regis College Haiti Project (RCHP) or International Nurse Faculty Partnership Initiative (INFPI) aims to improve access to quality health care in Haiti by addressing the acute nursing shortage and the call for an advancement of nursing education in Haiti.
The Regis College School of Nursing, Science and Health Professions has partnered with the Haitian Ministry of Health, private and public nursing school leaders in Haiti, and the Boston- based medical charity Partners In Health (PIH) to launch an innovative, advanced education and leadership program for Haitian nursing faculty (most of whom have the equivalent of an associate's degree) across Haiti. Upon graduation from this master's program, the first cohort of Haitian nursing faculty will lead the institutionalization of the program in Haiti for all future cohorts.
Even before the devastating earthquake in January 2010, Haiti struggled with a severe shortage of healthcare workers, poor infrastructure and routine lack of healthcare. Today, Regis College is committed, as part of the international community, to help build and enhance the human infrastructure of Haiti's health system with the Regis College Haiti Project.
In addition, the program presents extraordinary service learning opportunities for Regis College faculty and doctoral nursing students, as well as other Massachusetts-based partners, including but not limited to a unique cross-cultural collaboration that will promote additional cross- cultural awareness, understanding and competence.
