Apollo Says He And Phaedra May Save Their Marriage: "I'm Hopeful That We Can Stick Things Out"
At this point, we were all pretty convinced that thing were over between Phaedra Parks and Apollo Nida, but according to the troubled reality TV husband, there's a possibility that their marriage will be saved. In his first interview from behind bars, Apollo told InTouch Weekly that he and Phae Phae are now on speaking terms.
"Yes, we've had problems — especially over the last year — but we've gotten on terms now where I can call her and it's cordial," the father of two explained.
Not only is he allowed to call his estranged wife, but he also claims that they speak frequently. Apparently, this are going so well that he's under the impression that their marriage has a chance of surviving his lengthy prison stint.
"I'm hopeful that we can stick things out."
Apollo says that the pair has been discussing Phaedra bringing their two sons, Dylan and Ayden, up to the prison to see him.
"There's a plan to get them up here."
Unfortunately, it appears that Apollo's wish for reconciliation may be nothing more than that—a wish. According to Phaedra's publicist, the divorce is still on. He did, however, admit that the attorney is considering taking the boys to see their father.
"The divorce is proceeding as planned," her rep explained. "While Phaedra and the boys [Ayden, 4, and Dylan, 18 months] do speak with Apollo regularly, there have been absolutely no discussions about reconciling."
While I would hope that Phae Phae's publicist is simply misinformed and Phaedra and Apollo have been trying to work things out, the chances of her rep releasing a statement on this sensitive matter without her approval is unlikely. As previously reported, when asked if she would proceed with the divorce while Apollo is still behind bars, Phaedra replied with a simple "I don't know."

Papoose Says People Told Him To Move On When Remy Was In Prison
While Remy Ma was serving her six-year prison bid, many wondered what would become of her relationship with her love, Papoose. Thankfully, their relationship was able to survive that drama-filled time in their lives, but Pap says that it definitely wasn't easy.
"It wasn't easy," he honestly told Mara The Hip Hop Socialite. "It was an uphill battle the whole time. It felt like the storm wasn't going to stop at times. Those were some very hard times, but we made it through just by having each other, and staying true to each other. But it definitely wasn't easy – it's something you never want to forget. You don't want to take the good things for granted because those were some hard times day-by-day. Mainly in the beginning, it was the hardest because it was like she just blew trial, and we were hoping for an appeal, but reality was setting in that she was going to be there for some long amount of years. It was tough."
Unsurprisingly, Pap says that some people suggested that he move on during Remy's prison stint.
"Yeah I had a lot of people who felt like that, but people know how dedicated I am, so it really wasn't a large amount of people who was willing to say that to my face because they know knew how I felt about Remy," he explained. "But I would hear it was being said behind my back. 'I was a fool, I was stupid, I should go on with my life 'cause she would do it to me'. Things like that people were saying, and if you ever went through any hard times, you know that everybody leaves 'cause it wasn't fun to be around me. I had responsibilities – I had to get up in the morning, drive up north, drive back, I had to shop for packages so she could have food to eat. It's like, basically, Rem occupied a space in my life, but she wasn't physically there, so I had to live according to that."
"You know, everybody abandons when the going gets tough, you know what I'm saying? It was hard man, it was hard," he continued. "Just seeing her go through it. You gotta realize, Rem was having her appeals put in, and we would go maybe a year-and-a- half waiting for the results of an appeal, planning our lives on her walking out, and then we would get the results, and we'd just get let down. So I had to watch her go through that, you know what I'm saying? It was hard…I can't even sit here and front and say it was easy, you know what I'm saying?"
As for what their relationship was like before her legal trouble, Pap says that they were inseparable.
"Rem was just a good person. When the situation happened, me and Rem was in love with each other, before it even happened. Like we were inseparable – we would be together every day, all day. And when we wasn't together, we would be on the phone."
Just before the incident, he says that Remy was trying to decide whether or not she should stay overseas with him.
"I was actually overseas and she was overseas with me. We both was touring, but her tour ended before mine, and she was deciding if she should stay with me or go back home. And that was the f-cking worst decision ever because she decided to go home. And we was counting down the days for me to come back off of my tour, and the last day, the last maybe couple days before I was finally coming home was when she caught the case. And when it happened, I actually left off my tour early to come back when it happened, but just to answer your question, I say all that to say that we was already in love with each other. Sometimes in life when things happen, people change towards the individual because the individual is in a hard, tough situation, but I'm not that type of person, you know what I'm saying?

Jennifer Williams And Cisco Rosado Broke Up? And He's Starring In the New Season Of 'Love & Hip Hop New York' With Another Woman?
With the debut season of "Love & Hip Hop Hollywood" coming to a close, it's the perfect time for VH1 to begin promoting the new season of "Love & Hip Hop New York" and its newest additions. One new cast member is producer Cisco Rosado, who was romantically linked to former "Basketball Wives" star Jennifer Williams. Interestingly, it seems that their flame has fizzled. According to a press release for the series, Cisco will be appearing on the show with his girlfriend, Diamond Strawberry.
"[Cisco's] 'don't ask, don't tell' relationship with his girlfriend Diamond Strawberry takes a turn for the worst when she decides to move to NY to be closer to him and later finds out he has been dishonest," the press release reads.
Exclusive: Sheree Fletcher Rep Confirms Divorce
Last week, Sheree Fletcher made headlines after it was reported that she filed for divorce from her husband, retired NFL star Terrell Fletcher. We were able to get in touch with Sheree's publicist, who unfortunately confirmed the split.

As previously reported, the pair has been separated since July. Sheree cited irreconcilable differences in her divorce documents, which were filed with the Los Angeles County Superior Court. The "Hollywood Exes" star is requesting spousal support; however, exact figures have not been disclosed.

Fantasia Flaunts Blingy Bridal Set: "He Said I Want To Get You The Ring Of Your Dreams"
For nearly a month, we've been wondering whether or not Fantasia secretly married her new beau, Kendall Taylor. Cryptic Instagram messages and a huge "Fantasia" tattoo inked across Kendall's chest really seemed to confirm our suspicions. Yet still, Tasia has declined to formally confirm their union. But perhaps, that is all about to change.
A few minutes ago, the "End of Me" singer shared a photo of what appears to be her beautiful bridal set on Instagram with a caption about how much it means to her because it came from her "king," Kendall.
"So He said: I want to get you the Ring of Your Dreams.. I want you to Look down and smile knowing your [sic] mine and you deserve this..I'm NOT A material girl and it could have been a ring out the Bubble Gum Machine but Just Continue to give me the Love you give to me Big Daddy… He said: I know but as your King THIS is what I want for my Queen."
Last night, Tasia also shared a photo of herself with Kendall. In the caption, she thanked God for blessing her with everything that she prayed for in a man.
"God….. I Thank You!!! He's Everything I Prayed For… To Feel Protected and To Have Someone To Cover Me In Prayer.. To Believe when I don't Believe.. Man!!! This Weekend has me So Ready To Bring An Album They've Never Heard From Me.. I Love You Kendall Taylor…"
Considering all that she has been through, it's nice to see Tasia happy, in love and drama free for a change. And of course, we're looking forward to that new music he has inspired her to put out.

Tasha Smith's Husband Gets A Restraining Order Against Her After Alleged Death Threats
So according to Tasha Smith's husband, Keith Douglas, she's not much different from the aggressive character that she played in Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married.
TMZ is reporting that Douglas has filed for a protective order against the 43-year-old beauty. While a judge has granted his request, because the pair still lives under the same roof, Smith has been ordered to stay 2 yards away from Douglas while they're at home. When they're not at their residence, she has been ordered to stay 100 yards away from him.
In Douglas' petition for a restraining order, he alleged that she frequently flies into alcohol-induced rages. He claims that things have gotten so bad that she has threatened his life and even warned him "not to fall asleep or something will happen." He's also alleging that she has threatened to have other people do bodily harm to him . Douglas claims that some of her outbursts even occurred in front of his children…
The judge would not order Tasha to leave the home until there is a full hearing. Strangely, just a few weeks ago, Smith and Douglas were photographed together (above) at the New York premiere of Addicted and they appeared pretty happy. It's still unclear what has the couple at odds.
Sources close to Tasha say that allegations that she has a drinking problem are absurd. Tasha's reps have declined to comment on the allegations.

"Hollywood Exes" Star Sheree Fletcher Files For Divorce
Another reality TV couple bites the dust.
According to TMZ Sports, "Hollywood Exes" star Sheree Fletcher has filed for divorce from her husband, Terrell Fletcher, who is a retired-NFL-player-turned-pastor. The two have been married since 2007 and with the exception of Sheree's son, Trey, from her previous marriage to Will Smith, the Fletchers have no children together.
It's unclear what pushed the two to end their marriage, but on the show it appeared that there was a bit of tension caused by Terrell's expectations of Sheree as his first lady. According to court documents, which were filed with the L.A. County Superior Court, Sheree and Terrell have been separated since July. She cited irreconcilable differences in her filing.
The reality star is requesting spousal support; however, the amount of money that she is requesting has not been disclosed.
We're really sad to hear that this couple has decided to end their marriage, but maybe it's all for the best.

"I Still Have The Keys To Your House:" Trina Calls Out French Montana & Sets The Record Straight About Their Relationship
French Montana has a disloyalty problem. At least according to two of his past lovers, he does. For years, the "Don't Panic" rapper's now ex-wife, Deen Kharbouch, has accused him of abandoning his family after his musical career took off. Now, Trina also seems to be pointing out French's shady ways. Since he went public with his relationship with Khloe Kardashian, there were whispers that French left Trina for Khloe. However, during a recent interview, French claimed that he and Trina were never serious. But according to Trina, he significantly downplayed the nature of what they had and now, she's calling him out.
"I don't know what that means, 'I'm just having fun,'" Trina said on The Breakfast Club, referencing French's recent interview. "We really were not in a relationship, let's be clear about that. I never told him that I was his girl and I mean, there were a lot of reasons. I guess now we can see why. You just got a lot of growing up to do. I could come up here and expose you and bash you, but I'm so much better than that."
Though she admits that the two were not committed, the "F-ck Love" rapper insists that they were very close.
"We were friends and today makes two years that we've been friends. The day I met you was this day," she continued. "A relationship, to me, starts with a friendship. I think we were on the same page, but at the same time, different pages kind of. He had a situation. He was going through a divorce, which is one of the reasons why I never got into a relationship with him. I wanted that to be clear. There was a lot of back and forth, but I was here with you every single day and every step of the way while you were dealing and going through that."
Trina adds that in addition to supporting French through his divorce, she instructed him to step up to the plate and handle his business like a man.
"I was your friend. I was in your life. And when you say 'friend,' I mean friend not like the girl you met at the club or the girl you took home and we was smashing. Not that kind of friend. I was the kind of friend that when you came to Miami, you never slept in a hotel because you stayed at my house every single time. The friend that I have the keys to your house still, right now, today. That kind of friend. The friend that everything you post on your Instagram of your house, I did that."
"So let's be clear on the thing," she added. "Since you want to be so messy about it, because we were friends."
As previously stated, Trina says that she found out about Khloe and French's relationship on a blog site. But bizarrely, she says she and the "Pop That" rapper were still living together at the time.
"It's a little surprising when you're living with somebody that they're running around with somebody else."
Messy, messy, messy.

'I Was Never A Couple With Trina:' French Montana Denies Cheating On Trina With Khloe Kardashian [Watch]
When Khloe Kardashian and French Montana first went public with their relationship, there were many reports circulating that the "Don't Panic" rapper ditched his ex-boo, Trina, when he met the reality star. While Trina has alluded that French was not upfront or honest with her when he began his fling with Khloe, she did make it clear that she was never actually his girlfriend. In other words, he was technically free to see whomever he pleased. French addressed his tryst with Trina during a recent appearance on the Wendy Show and according to his version of events, he was fresh out of his relationship with now ex-wife, Deen, and was just having a little fun with Trina. Check out some highlights from his interview below.
On the current status of his relationship with Khloe:
"I feel like in every relationship, you break up and you make up. Right now we on real good terms. We're in a real special zone right now. She gon' be my baby forever."
"I'm divorced. She [Khloe] is still married."
On people believing he dated Khloe for publicity reasons:
"I don't think that love comes like that. Publicity, that's just something people want to roll with. I think that when you meet somebody you really like, you don't really worry about all of that stuff."
On Trina saying she introduced him to the Kardashians:
"No [that's not true] at all. I'm going to keep it all the way 100. Kanye invited me to the Barclays Center to come to the show. It just so happened Kris and Kim was there. It so happened that Trina knew Kim. She said, 'Hi, this is French.' That's what it was."
On rumors that he cheated on Trina with Khloe:
"Honestly, I was never a couple with Trina. I was going through my divorce so it was kind of like I was just having fun with life. I wasn't in no mental space to [be in a relationship]. I can't claim nobody after I'm just going through a divorce."
On reports that his ex-wife was awarded $1.2 million in their divorce settlement:
"Something like that. I don't even want to talk about it. I'm going to start sweating."

Gloria Govan Speaks On Her Split From Matt Barnes: "We're Still Friends"
TMZ recently caught up with former "Basketball Wives LA" star Gloria Govan, who is finally speaking out about her separation from hubby Matt Barnes. According to the mother of two, she and Matt are on good terms.
"We're definitely amicable. We have kids so we keep it…we're friends."
Glo went on to say that they still operate like a family even though they're no longer a couple.
"Matt came over for dinner. We're still cool. We are still doing Halloween together. Matt has a game on Halloween."
As for their twin sons, according to their mama they're doing just fine.
"They're dope. You know they're six. They don't really understand it yet but we work really hard to make sure that they're good. That's what it's about, but we're good. I talk to him all the time."
Unlike most breakups, Gloria says that she and Matt have been handling their situation in a friendly manner.
"We're still friends. We're friends first and foremost. We're adults. We're good."
Of course, this wouldn't be the first time the two have broken up, so it's not surprising that Glo says she's open to reconciliation.
"Listen, I'm not opposed to anything. I'm not a fortune teller so I'm not going to talk about the future because I don't know what's going to happen. You know, I'm just living in the present. We're good right now."
Some people have been claiming that things are not nearly as sweet as Gloria would like for everyone to believe, but we're hoping that those rumors are false.

Name Meanings-Part 2
Everything-living and non living has a name. If something has no name, it is yet to be discovered, invented or created as far as I know.
So why do we call people and things a particular name? Why is a computer, a book, a pen called that and not something else? Do their meanings and their history ortheir function contribute to what they are named? What about human beings? Why did our parents ever give us thenames we are called?
What do these names mean and how do they affect us consciously and unconsciously? I have been curious for sometime now and that led me to post to the group name meanings some weeks ago.
I was thrilled to know the meaning of names of our sisters on this community:Many thanks to all those who shared the meaning and history behind their names:
Jennifer Ann- 'Fair one of favored grace"
Katie Anna McDonald -"Pure, Grace, World Ruler"
Busayo "God has added to our joy
Khushbu is of Urdu origin and it means "beautiful fragrance"
Nusrat is "success/ victory"
Sunita: Su means shuva in Nepali which means fortune in english and early morning in Bangla.
Basnet: Bas means to Basnu in Nepali which mean to sit.
Together my name Sunita Basnet means to have fortune forever which also apply in my life. It helps to bring happiness and peace in life.
"Janice" is a variant of "Jane", an English girl's name meaning "God's gracious gift". My last name "Wong" is an ancient (and now extremely common) surname and the variation my family use represents descendants of the Yellow Emperor"
A quick survey on this community has also shown that most people never had the opportunity to choose their own names which may be normal in most cases. However, people can have the opportunity to choose their names as babies! A community member shared her story:
"My name is Reem it's spelled in different ways (Reem/Riem/Ream/Rym ) It means female deer. I actually picked my own name. My mum liked the names Reem and Rana and my dad liked Hend, they wrote them down on small pieces of papers and I touched the "Reem" paper 3 times in a row with my little hand. They figured, I just like the name Reem!"
Reem, you have generous parents! I grew up to hear the sound Gifty from the lips of my entourage. My grand parents called me "Agifiti", (according to Linguistics, people from my village will always add an "A" to all names. so for instance if you are called Jennifer, they will call you "Ajennifer". Toddlers learning how to talk called me "Titi" but it is supposed to sound and mean the same thing. I am yet to find out if my Dad consulted my mother before naming me. With my background, men made major decisions. Howver,with education and womne's rights advocacy this tradition is changing.
"Gifty, even you need to mention the meaning of your name…" Khushbu made it clear:
Gifty means"Gift of God". Pearl means "Precious, valuable". Together my name Gifty Pearl Means "Precious gift from God". I believe I am the greatest gift to Humanity so I live every day working to touch people's lives in my own small unique way.
So here we are from different places with different names and meanings but with one goal: seeking, researching, telling and reporting global issues from the perspective of the woman.
But there is also this question lurking in my mind. Why WOLDPULSE or Pulsewire? What do these names mean? What is their history? What is the story behind the name "Voices of Our Future?" Are our voices not in the present as well? Forgive me for being too curious.
Lets keep learning and sharing.
Why the name World Pulse and PulseWire - the story
Dear Gifty -
What a great experience to read the meanings of so many names. It reminds me of a post of our beloved community member ILA whose post, "Say My Name" - has the record number of comments on PulseWire - 46! http://www.worldpulse.com/node/1770
Why World Pulse? I think of World Pulse as the electric pulse of women's rising voices across the globe. It is the heartbeat of the planet. Alive - a new frequency that will transform the world. But it is a little known secret that World Pulse wasn't her first name - it wasn't her birth name. In fact, i was riding my bicycle one day up a very big hill when i was 28 years old .i was dreaming of a magazine i wanted to start that would connect women all over the world. I had a vision that it was to be called "World Birth" - because women were "birthing" a new world. I was so certain that was the name the universe wanted. However, in little under a year it became painfully clear that the name wasn't the right one. Everyone thought that we were only about pregnancy around the world - and we got endless submissions about breastfeeding! . Sol, I set about revisioning - and going deep inside myself. We surveyed hundreds of people - and World Pulse was the name everyone loved, including me. It has so much energy -- to this day i love it. This is the energy of women's voices, humming, buzzing, pulsing - creating life.
Then - along came PulseWire! We wanted to create a way that women everywhere in the world could have a voice and report stories from the ground - like a global women's newswire. We wanted to create a new kind of news through the voices of women. Although we wished it could have a more commmunity-feeling name...we settled on the name PulseWire because we could see the wires and the web of pulsing energy connecting women across the globe intor a powerful force. We wanted it to have a special name, that was unique from World Pulse, because we always knew that PulseWire would be a special place that would be owned and led by her community of women.
Interestingly enough when i name things sometimes out of curiosity i check numerology on the name. When i did the numerology on World Pulse and PulseWire -- each one comes up an 11 - and together become a 22. The 22 is one of the most special numbers, it is considered a master number, and it symbolizes great destiny - a global humanitarian leader that connects people in service and support using communications.
When we dreamed of Voices of Our Future -- we knew that rising up would be new voices that would shape the collective future of our world. Absolutely you are voices of the present, but that as soon as the world could hear --- each voice will grow in influence and achieve great power to shift the future for us all.
Cheers to names and your great creativity!
Jensine Larsen
World Pulse
The Pulses
you are doing a great job in having us discover meanings in names. When i first heard of Voices of Our Future Application in my inbox from a local women group which i am a member, i must admit that it was the words Voices of Our Future that drew me most. I knew that this was not an ordinary job application. To me, it meant 'using our present voices to shape the future.' The word 'Our' has the ownership in it. To me, it meant we own the future that we want to shape through our voices. As Jensine puts it, it is the future for us all.
Both World Pulse Wire has the word 'Pulse' in it. What came in my mind first is a vibration, a throb, a resonation or an amplification. Hence what it really means is that although our voices have been there, they were so suppressed and could not be heard. But through this web 2.0 media, our voices have been amplified.. they are more strong, uncountable, connecting hence world changing! And yes, we are changing the world!
Many Hugs,
We Can Do It!
Open gate to cultures
Dear Gifty,
Wow! What an interesting post! Your are indeed a talented woman "gifty"..This is an interesting issue, informative, exciting and a gate open to all cultures. Whenever i visit I find new valuable information.
My name in Arabic language means a patient person who doesn't get angry easily.
You are truely talented, how on earth did you come up with this idea, the idea of name meaning is so amazing. some time back I had a discussion with my friends over name meaning. we later concluded that a name has a great impact on some one. some names can have good influence while others can be of bad influence, for instance a name like mavuto(suffering/poor) such names can create a poor and bad image on some one. another example can be mapalo (blessings) this name can create good image and hope on some one.
I am happy to note that despite different meaning of our names, we all have one goal we are all looking forward to achieve!
My dad has never told me the meaning of my name, but i tried to search the meaning and it is actually a combination of valley, river in short peace!
thanks and love You OOOO
Hi gifty! Just catching up
Hi gifty! Just catching up with my backlogs to all of you . It feels good for me you call me "Maya", this is a small bird here in the Philippines which is very common. It just reminded me of my childhood days where we together with my brother enjoyed playing with these birds at the farms .
My name malayapinas is the web name I choose. Malaya means free and pinas is a Filipino slang which means Pilipinas in Filipino language - Philippines in English language.
In a way, Maya and malaya are very much connected - Our country Philippines is like a bird put in a cage who have no freedom to fly and enjoy God-given nature . Maya is symbolism of my name Malaya who fights for freedom and enjoy being free.
My real name is given to me by my late beloved father. My name is his legacy in me and I'm living with this legacy everyday of my life not only because he had loved me so much and i love him so much but because both of us love freedom and life for all amid hopelessness and despair.
Just call me Maya - i love both name maya and malaya!
thanks and huds to you,

Saturday 29 Nov 2014
By Pac Pobric. Web onlyPublished online: 30 July 2013
A 43-inch ceremonial sword illegally taken from Saddam Hussein's office in 2003 during the US invasion of Iraq was returned to the government of Iraq yesterday (29 July). Initially taken by an unidentified member of the US military, the piece was handed over to the Iraqi ambassador Lukman Faily at a private ceremony in Washington, DC.
"Today is one of these historic days that documents the deep relationship, co-operation and friendship between Iraq and the United States and also shows again the US commitment for rebuilding Iraq and preserving its cultural heritage," said Faily in a statement released by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).After being brought into the US, the sword was consigned to the Amoskeag Auction Company in Manchester, New Hampshire, in October 2011, and was put up for sale on 7 January 2012. It went for $15,000, but Homeland Security Investigations stepped in to retrieve the piece. It was forfeited by the auction house on 30 April 2012. "The auction house was very co-operative and agreed to relinquish the sword… until it could be determined if it was legally brought here," says a spokeswoman for ICE. Under US law, certain war trophies can be legally seized by individual soldiers for their personal use, but since this item was not a modern battlefield weapon, it was not considered eligible.The spokeswoman says the auction house exercised due diligence in buying the sword and that there was no criminal intent on the part of the army personnel who had brought the piece to the US. "The person was under the wrong impression they had the legal authority to do so," she says, and no charges will be pressed in the US.

Rev. Al Sharpton launches Cincinnati chapter of civil rights organization
Updated On: Jan 06 2013 06:22:42 PM EST
A Forest Park church welcomed a special visitor Sunday.
Rev. Al Sharpton delivered a message of change to the community. He asked young people to end gun violence and seek an education.
Sharpton spoke to the congregation of Word of Deliverance Church.
He was in town to help start Cincinnati's chapter of his civil rights organization, National Action Network.
"We expect this to be a great chapter that's (led) in Ohio. National politics is guided out of Ohio. Any civil rights organization in this salt, (it) needs to have their flag planted here and it's deeply planted here because of Bishop Hilton," Sharpton said.
Bishop Bobby Hilton is the chapter's president.
"We want to look into everything that is not fair or not being done correctly and just step (up) and make sure things are done fairly for all people," Hilton said
Members of Hilton's congregation said they know he is the right man for the job.
The National Action Network is looking for new members too. Meetings will be held every second Saturday of the month at The Word Family Life Center on Fresno Road in Forest Park beginning in February.

Right up front, I want to show you some of the folks who are responsible for this - The Hardee County HFH Board of Directors. We met them last night at their board meeting.
These folks are 100% volunteers and the affiliate has no paid positions on their staff.
Pretty impressive to be building homes because of people who work really hard after hours, on holidays and on weekends to make it happen! There web site is at: Hardee County Habitat for Humanity. It was great to meet the board and attend their meeting.
We have had most interaction with Kathleen, the Volunteer Coordinator (third from right, below) and (far left at top picture). Our CAV leaders Mary Kay and Ray pictured second from left and second from right on bottom picture) will be here five months and see the house finished.
It is fun seeing this house take shape. We arrived before the foundation was even poured.
Ray and Ralph keeping a watchful eye
The concrete workers doing their thing
After the foundation and driveway got poured, we focused on the shed that Ray and Mary Kay, Ralph and Darlene had started.
The walls were up and secured at the end of the first day along with some of the rafters.
Another Habitat house is going up and we are glad to be here!
That is all for this edition of the Roadrunner Chronicles ~ thanks for joining us! Hope you all have a terrific Thanksgiving and a safe, enjoyable holiday!

A retired Shelby County teacher has written a children's book about the significance of the phenomenon known as a red moon – there was one this morning – but focuses on its spiritual symbolism rather than its scientific significance.
The red moon, or blood moon, as it's sometimes called, is believed by some theologians to be a sign of the End Times, and Karen Standafer said she uses it in her book to illustrate how children can embrace Christianity, using her grandson, Brennen Standafer, as the main character in the book.
When Justin "Buckshot" Warren was a child, he had two goals - to someday play for the NBA and to own the B&N Food Market.
On Wednesday, one of those dreams – the one closest to his heart – came true when he purchased the iconic Bagdad grocery store and restaurant from his uncle, Rusty Newton.
"Well, I didn't make it to the NBA, but I made it here in Bagdad," he said, with the shy grin that has endeared him to people in that community for more than 20 years.
Shelby County Public School officials have quietly been walking around with big smiles this week as the district learned on Wednesday that it's annual state test scores increased again.
For the second year in a row, district saw improvement in its Kentucky Performance Rating for Educational Progress (KREP) scores.
The Shelby County Cooperative Extension Office opened its doors Tuesday afternoon for guests to participate in an array of hands-on activities during its annual open house event.
Activities included butter churning, sewing and Halloween crafts, and attendees had the opportunity to pet various animals like snakes, chickens and rabbits. Guests were also treated to quesadillas, smoothies, and pumpkin muffins.
With a trailer behind his Ford truck, Moises Tejeda is chasing the American dream.
For 18 years, he's been working in construction, moving houses, but he's ready for a change.
"I'm getting old, I gotta start doing something else. [Construction] is hard on the body," he said with a smile.
So, Tejeda decided to lean over a hot grill, opening Taqueria la Nayarita, a Mexican food trailer, this summer. But it was the year before that his cooking flame was sparked.
Bigfoot, Yeti, Sasquatch – society may not be able to agree on a name for the elusive creature, but there is certainly some intrigue to the possible existence of the hairy, human-like creature.
More than sixty interested visitors showed up to hear information on the mysterious creature Saturday morning when members of the Kentucky Bigfoot Research Organization visited Red Orchard Park to provide a lecture and hike.
Charlie Raymond, Founder and Lead Investigator of The Kentucky Bigfoot Research Organization (KBRO), hosted the lecture.
After a long, and sometimes heated debate, the Shelby County Board of Education Thursday approved 3-2 the funding of a new arts center for the district, although with some strings still attached.
The board approved a recommendation to join the Ohio Valley Educational Cooperative in the building of a city center, which will provide art courses to students before and after school, as well as private lessons, at a maximum of $3.5 million.
Discolored tap water that showed up at homes on Benson Pike last week is no cause for concern, say water officials.
David Hedges, manager of North Shelby Water, said that water that has the appearance of being tea-colored is the result of flushing the lines, which the company had to do when repairing a small leak.
"It's just iron deposits and sediment," he said. "When you have leaks, it stirs up stuff in the system."
Officials at Shelby County Farm Bureau are still on top of the insurance cloud after being named Agency of the Year.
They beat out 179 other Farm Bureau agencies across the state to garner the company's top award.
"We were very honored to be chosen "Agency of the Year" on September 17th at our Agents Association Annual Meeting at the Campbell House in Lexington," said Pat Hargadon, agency manager for Shelby County Farm Bureau.
Students at West Middle School are already getting a taste of engineering experience, thanks to a robotics course being provided to sixth and seventh graders at the school.
In the library at West Middle School Thursday evening, the Shelby County Public School's Board of Education heard presentations from Carson Jorgenson and Abigail VanDeVelde. The sixth-graders at the school presented two projects they had created in the robotics course this year, a program funded by a Project Lead The Way grant.

TLS as president signed "RN," one page, 6.75 x 8.75, White House letterhead, January 16, 1974. Letter to entertainer Rudy Vallee and his wife. In full: "Your thoughtful birthday greetings helped to make January 9 an especially enjoyable day for me, and this note is just to thank you for your kindness and friendship." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original White House mailing envelope. Vallee was one of Nixon's most prominent Hollywood supporters during his presidential campaigns, and was quoted in 1968 as saying that Nixon was 'the most qualified man in this country, intellectually and emotionally' to run for president. In 1969, Esquire ran a cover story about Nixon's fashion style, which depicted the recently inaugurated president along with Vallee, Art Linkletter, Billy Graham, and Lawrence Welk, all wearing the rather bland suit he was known for. Nixon had turned 61 on January 9th, which would be his last birthday in the White House—embroiled in controversy with the Watergate scandal, he would resign exactly eight months later, on August 9, 1974. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.

Whaddya do when your back is too burnt to enjoy the Bahamas? In my case, it's the perfect opportunity to do a web roundup.
While (web) surfing on my trip, I spotted this story on Joystiq about artist A.J. Hateley's book covers inspired by video games. Above is his tribute to Fallout 3. Check out all his covers here.
Following Game Informer's announcement of Dishonored, you'll want to keep an eye out for extended coverage on their dedicated hub for the game. Beyond covering Arkane's newly-announced game, their staff seems to have been bitten by the Oblivion bug, as they have new features on their favorite Oblivion fan videos and why they love the game.
Elsewhere, IGN looks back at both Oblivion (#18) and Fallout 3 (#6) in their list of the Top 100 Modern Video Games. Check out the full list here.
Has Fallout 3 ever made you wonder how to prepare for a post-apocalyptic lifestyle? If so, read 1Up's How to Survive the Fallout Apocalypse.

After the break, find more coverage for Prey 2, Skyrim, and RAGE.

The Game Critics Awards have announced their Best of E3 2011 picks, and we were honored to learn the 're honored that the voting panel picked The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim as a winner in two categories: Best Console Game and Best Role Playing Game.
Join us in congratulating Bethesda Game Studios on this well-deserved honor.
Get a premium Skyrim map with your preorder
Making real maps of our fantasy worlds is an Elder Scrolls tradition. As Todd Howard said all the way back in a Morrowind blog post, "There's something about having a physical object in your hands that feels like it's part of this other world, that you are that person in the game, finding your way among the hills."
With that in mind, today we are announcing that anyone who preorders Skyrim will automatically receive a premium quality world map with their copy as a no-extra-cost-to-you bonus.
To guarantee your copy of your premium quality world map, please pre-order today.
Update: We've received plenty of questions about the map. So you know, it's a high-grade material that has a feel similar to burlap, and will be available in North America and European territories. There will be a regular paper map included in all copies of the game, but if you want to get the premium map, we recommend pre-ordering the game.
The Game Critics Awards has announced this year's Best of E3 nominees, and we're excited to share news that Prey 2, RAGE, and Skyrim were all nominated.
Skyrim received three nominations, including Best Role Playing Game, Best Console Game, and the overall Best of Show award! Bethesda Game Studios previously won Best RPG for Oblivion (2005) and Fallout 3 (2008). Fallout 3 also won overall Best of Show in 2008.
RAGE is nominated again this year for Best Action Game. The team captured the award last year, as well as awards for Best Console Game and a Special Commendation for Graphics. Previously, id Software won overall Best of Show, Best PC Game, Best Action Game, and Special Commendations for both Graphics and Sound in 2002 for DOOM 3.
Prey 2 also received a nomination for Best Action Game. This is Human Head's second Game Critics Award nomination (they were nominated for Best PC Game in 2005).
Congrats to Bethesda Game Studios, id Software, and Human Head on getting nominated. Winners will be announced on June 28th.

When a long, hot summer in Afghanistan is over, Gen. Petraeus will likely be taking the helm of the CIA.
"Every family makes enormous sacrifices, long separations, the strain of knowing a loved one is in harms way," Petraeus said.
"I think you have to try to get into a rhythm I guess, if you will, a routine that is sustainable," he added.
"I am blessed to have a wonderful wife, who is an army daughter, an army wife and an army mother," he said of his wife, Holly, a longtime advocate for military families.
Holly was recently been named by the Obama administration's Elizabeth Warren to head up a new unit at the Consumer Protection Agency that seeks to shield military families from predatory lenders.
"She is very understated and has a very dry humor that particularly pokes fun at me," Petraeus said.
He added, "I do think it is wonderful the way all American citizens have rallied around our men and women in uniform regardless of their views."
Then Petraeus described a moment when he and his wife Holly were taking a taxi back to the airport in Boston after seeing Stephen's graduation from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. They went under an overpass and looked up to see a large banner hanging down. It read, "Hate the war. Love the troops."
Petraeus said, "I turned to Holly and said, "Fifty percent ain't bad. And that's the right 50 percent."

On November 19, 1928, the Detroit Historical Society opened the Detroit Historical Museum in a one-room suite on the 23rd floor of the Barlum Tower, earning it the nickname of highest museum in the world. These days, Detroit?s Cultural Center accommodates the museum in an 80,000-square-foot space, where interactive exhibits preserve more than 300 years of city history. Frontiers to Factories traces Detroit's transformation from French-frontier outpost to industrial city, while America's Motor City celebrates its automotive dominance with a changing display of classic vehicles and a 1903 Model T that guests can sit in. Streets of Old Detroit brings the 19th century to life with recreated cobblestone streets that wind past stores of the era such as a five-and-dime, a soda shop, and a barbershop for powdered wigs.
Thanks to recent renovations, the society has expanded its chronicle of Detroit with three new permanent exhibitions. Detroit: The Arsenal of Democracy covers the ways the city's industrial infrastructure adapted to demands of World War II, and The Gallery of Innovation includes videos about renowned innovators and hands-on activities involving trial and error. As The Allesee Gallery of Culture examines the city's cultural history, its Kid Rock Music Lab lets visitors create and share their own music using interactive displays. Outside, the Detroit Legends Plaza honors the city's sports, entertainment, and media legends with cemented handprints and signatures from stars such as Lily Tomlin and Martha Reeves.

The Hershey Theatre, conceived in 1933 by noted philanthropist and chocolatier Milton S. Hershey, stands as an opulent tribute to the performing arts. Taking architectural cues from Saint Mark's Basilica in Venice, the foyer's towering arches gleam with golden paint and crystal chandeliers. The blue-and-gold mosaic that leads to the main seating area is the masterwork of two German artists who spent two years on its construction. Once inside the theater, audiences might think they've stepped onto the streets of Venice thanks to the atmospheric ceiling, stonework facades, and gondoliers paddling them to their seats. ####Bethel Woods Center for the Arts Music has permeated the 800 manicured acres where the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts has stood since 1969, when farmer Max Yasgur agreed to let love, peace, and harmony grow wild at the very first Woodstock festival. These days, the renowned outdoor venue and cultural center continues to attract the biggest acts in music to its pavilion stage. The open-air design ensures ample ventilation on the natural sloping lawn, and a roof protects up to 15,000 fans from inclement weather and the prying eyes of Cessna pilots.
Preservation Detroit, founded in 1975, is Detroit's oldest group dedicated to historic preservation. Over the past three decades, the architectural preservation organization has become a leading advocate for the protection and rehabilitation of Detroit's historic abodes, skyscrapers, and culturally rich sites. They have used a variety of educational and research programs, along with advocacy and awareness campaigns to help grow support for the conservation Detroit's built heritage. Part of this mission includes encouraging the redevelopment of neighborhoods throughout the city around these historic structures, providing an anchor for residential areas and helping increase economic investment.
An all-volunteer organization, Preservation Detroit's staff continues to nurture their community's passion for historical treasures through lectures, seasonal newsletters, and tours. The organization continues to live up to its name; it recently helped conduct a historic preservation resource survey that recorded property-by-property information in six historic Detroit districts.
Raindance began as a thought experiment: can you make a movie with no money or experience, and without going to film school? 22 years, later Raindance now has 12 film networking and training hubs worldwide, and runs the largest indie film festival in Europe, the Raindance Film Festival. They provide hands on training, networking events, financing opportunities, and an innovative Membership program to help new and emerging filmmakers get their projects made.
Raindance's practical filmmaking and writing workshops break the daunting cinema-creation process into digestible workshops as industry professionals help to elevate the aptitude of independent filmmakers. Students can select courses that teach film industry basics including how to build a budget, choose a camera, and promote themselves. As a non-profit training and networking organization that works to promote and support filmmaking throughout the world, many classes conclude with networking sessions at local bars where participants can trade business cards to further their cinematic pursuits.
Standing in the shadow of Hitsville USA—the original home of Motown Records and the studio that launched the careers of Stevie Wonder and Smokey Robinson—Motown Museum preserves the legacy of soul's most successful label. Immersive exhibits trace the roots and eventual impact of Motown on popular culture, demonstrating how Gordy achieved the signature sound or how James Jamerson challenged and beat the devil in a bass-playing contest. Visitors get a chance to sing into the innovative Echo Chamber—a hole cut into the ceiling that created the reverb sound synonymous with hit recordings such as "Dancing in the Street." A steady stream of photographs and other rhythm-and-blues memorabilia leads amblers into "Studio A," which contains the original instruments and equipment used to record The Jackson Five and Gladys Knight during Motown's Detroit era. Crowds gather around Michael Jackson's signature glove-and-hat ensemble, which he himself donated to the museum.
