The 2003 Tablas Creek Vineyard Vermentino is Tablas Creek's second bottling of this traditional Mediterranean varietal, known principally in Sardinia, Corsica, and Northern Italy. It is also grown in the Rhone Valley (particularly Côtes de Provence) where it is known as Rolle. The Vermentino grape produces wines that are bright, clean, and crisp, with distinctive citrus character, refreshing acidity and surprising richness.
When we imported our Châteauneuf du Pape clones, our contact in the French nursery service included the Vermentino because he believed it would thrive in the rocky limestone soils of Paso Robles. We have planted about an acre of Vermentino, and it has indeed thrived here.
The 2003 vintage was tremendous: warm and sunny, with cool nights that prolonged the hangtime of the grapes and led to wines with excellent acidity. A relatively early flowering, combined with a warm but not overly hot summer produced unusually long hangtime, and grapes with concentrated flavors and a distinct minerality. The Vermentino was harvested in one day on September 24.
The Vermentino grapes were whole cluster pressed, and fermented using native yeasts in stainless steel to emphasize the minerality of the grapes. To further retain the bright citrus character of the wine, we prevented it from going through malolactic fermentation. The wine was bottled in April 2004.
As part of our ongoing research on different closure types, we bottled a portion of this wine in traditional cork finish, and a portion in Stelvin screwcap. We encourage you to try them side-by-side to see the difference in flavors.
The 2003 Vermentino shows a clean, mineral nose featuring peppered citrus and pear. Flavors of green apple and lime are heightened by refreshing acidity, good richness, no evidence of oak and a lingering finish.

Firefighters race to Four Corners blaze
Published On: May 13 2014 05:51:47 PM MDT
Updated On: May 13 2014 06:12:37 PM MDT
Updated On: May 13 2014 06:12:37 PM MDT
A fire tore through a west Bozeman home Tuesday afternoon.
Around 4:30 p.m. multiple crews responded to the blaze at a home off Arrowhead Trail, just East of Four Corners.
Witnesses say the entire home was engulfed by flames very quickly. We are told someone was working on a car in a garage, and the car caught fire which spread to the apartment.
Though firefighters now have the blaze out, we are told 15 to 20 firefighters are still on scene, along with Gallatin County Sheriff's Office and MHP. So far it is unclear if anyone was hurt.
We will post updates as we learn more.

Maybe he wanted them to pass the popcorn..Just joking.I have seen dogs pee on there owners when they had to go out to relieve themselves and the warning and asking from the dog was put on hold for a bit.I don't know if this is what happened in this case that's just the few case scenarios I have seen.
Might want to make a trip to the vet's office for a physical check up first and foremost.
My parents 2 year old female lab has a problem controling herself and recently was curling up, relaxed and calm with my dad in a chair and peed all over him. They're now working closely with their vet to identify and treat potential physical causes, such as weak bladder control and the like.
Is the dog neutered?
I was LOL ing myself when I first read it.
I had a cat that would pee all over everything including me every time see would get a UTI. she found a way to tell me she wasn't feeling well............vet, pills and in a day or two she was all better.
The dog needs to go to the vet for a complete check up.
Is the female lab spayed?
Sometimes spayed females will become incontinent after they are spayed.
As for the male, I'd have him checked out as maybe there is something weird going on there if this is the first time it ever happened.
I agree with a visit to the vet for this dog. I do have a funny story of this happening to me. Years ago when living in San Diego I adopted a young male German Shorthair from The Humane Society (about 18 months old). He bonded very quickly, was a great dog. We were at a group OB training and the trainer was speaking to the group (we were in a circle around him). My boy looked around then lifted his leg and peed on my leg! Obviously he was marking/claiming me; I was wearing shorts and it all ran down my leg into my sock and shoe-had to do the whole class with a soggy, urine soaked sock/shoe. Thank goodness no one was really watching me, we were all listening to our instructions.
Jo Ann
I have seen an un neutered dog lift his leg on his owner, while we were chatting on the sidewalk. I was horrified at the time. Not sure why a neutered male would do that, although it is interesting he did it on the man.
I think sometimes it is the dog trying to send a message to the master.
.I have a friend whose toy poodle did not like her husband.
Every week or so , the poodle would make sure it went over to her husbands black work shoes by the bed, and lift his leg and pee right into his shoe...
Obviously trying to send a message.!!!
I have seen both cats & dogs send those kind of messages to their owners, usually into empty shoes....but the funniest, kind of touching story I can think of was when we picked up Wolf from the airport, (for those of you who know of the Wolf von der Haus Maul story, you'll know why it's a little sad), we received his crate at Philadelphia airport, right next to the end of the runways, where the departing planes turn around & do their engine checks....extremely noisy, kind of freaking me out-it felt like your eardrums would rupture- he came right out of the crate for me, & I took him across the car lane from the freight building to relieve himself, he looked up at me, like, 'Sorry about this, but....' & he lifted his leg & peed all over my leg! A fine Howdy-do! But, with that look, I knew what he was doing....he was telling me in no uncertain terms...'Look- you are my person & I gotta make sure I can find you again!' He went right to the vet, who made sure he was back to good health, & we never had that problem again! jackie harris
We have a neighbor who has two undisciplined female beagles that she allows to run loose whenever she is out in her front yard. We had a friend sitting with us on our driveway with his two so-so disciplined mini-schnauzers on leash. She came over to say hello having never met him. Of course her two braying hounds charged the mini's and all hell broke loose. When everyone calmed down and she had taken her beagles home she came back and sat down on our drive to continue to visit. The male Mini immediately hiked his leg and peed all over her foot. The mini's owner was horrified and the beagles mom was pissed but I laughed my butt off. Guess he told her!

The installation went well tried it but if you have the module else where on the page and you want it in the article also the module disappears from the normal position it is in and is only getting shown in the article.
Would be great if you could display the module two places at ones without having to make a copy of the module so that you have two identical modules.
Some modules are badly programmed so they can not be used on the same page twice (like the smartsearch module in the Joomla core). That has nothing to do with the workings of this plugin.
I installed it and got it up and running then i hit a wall. I can only make two objects. If i want to have more than two objects i have to pay.
Why then write that it can allow booking of one or more objects.
The payment doesnt work either.
So sorry that you aren't 100% happy with my module...
As you wrote I have tried to help you but as you could not provide the logs for your server it is impossible for me to try and solve your issue with why the Warning is posted.
If you reduce the logging level for Joomla from Maximum the Warning will not be visible and SFU will still work fine...
Please let me know if you can get hold of the logs.

BMW is recalling 2011 X5 and X6 SAV models for failing to comply with federal safety standards on tire selection and rims. Affected models are equipped with 20-inch wheels, yet the label states the vehicles have 19-inch wheels. This can lead to incorrect tire inflation, which can affect handling and increase the risk of a crash. Dealers will mail the correct labels to the customer or install the label free of charge.

The windshield is bonded to its framework, not only creating a watertight seal, but contributing to the structural integrity of the roof. 210 vehicles were assembled with insufficient bonding in the upper right area of the windshield. In the event of a roll over type crash, the stability of the roof could be affected, increasing the risk of injury. Dealers will remove and reinstall the windshield and re-install it with the proper bonding to correct this concern.

About Andrew
A paramedic and veterinarian met on the idyllic island of Little Cayman. Six years, one wonderful marriage and two beautiful children later, we still see the beauty that brought us together. The Cayman Islands will always hold a special place in our hearts and this is what we want to share with you.
Andrew purchased this condo in 2007
Why Andrew chose Grand Cayman
Well, you only have the enter the flightpath to Grand Cayman to see why we chose here. This idyllic little island is gorgeous! Grand Cayman is also the most stable foreign government in the Caribbean. It is safe, luxurious and VIP savvy. When you are here, they really make you feel special.
The location and ammentities in Bonnie's Arch made it the only choice for us. We are avid scuba divers and the diving in our back yard is phenominal! We can dive everyday for free!
We have lived here day in and day out for 4 and a half years. Now we are following different dreams and providing for our children's futures. Selling would mean the end to our wonderful begining so we plan to return as often as possible to relive our adventurous beginnings. Hopefully you will fall in love with Bonnie's Arch like we have and want to return again and again.
What makes this condo unique
We are both very active and spend the weekends using the facilities. We have hundreds of hours in the racquetball and tennis courts. I am still trying to beat my wife at at least one game!!!
Being avid divers, we spend time out back doing wall dives at our favorite site, Big Tunnel. Once you come in from a dive, quickly rinse your gear at the hose and head straight for a quick dip in the pool with a cold drink in your hand.
We are close to everything, but not too close to be bothered by the traffic and noise. The nights are filled with stars and the lights from Seven Mile Beach. Frequently, you can watch a fireworks show on Seven Mile Beach from the balcony. You just cant ask for any more!

operating system);
- The "Referrer" (the URL where you clicked on a link to vx2's site);

example). The vx2 Software collects and maintains information on both current
and historical browsing. vx2 will use this information to build a summary of your
interests so that vx2 can help its partners and clients make relevant and
personalized offers to you.
vx2's Software also uses artificial

This information includes information about the computer's hardware
configuration, such as the amount of free space on your hard drive, and
information about the computer's software configuration, such as the name and
version of the operating system. These examples are representative, but the
specific information collected may vary from time to time. This information is

appropriate. This in turn, will allow vx2 or its partners or clients to make
relevant and personalized offers to you.
It is possible that, in some instances, the
operation of certain third party websites may result in some personal data
being included in URL data, which can result in that data is captured in the
course of the normal operation of the vx2 Software. Such instances are rare and
are the result of poor security practices by these third party websites. In the
unlikely instance that such information is captured, it may be stored in our
database, but it will not be used or disclosed in any manner that is
inconsistent with our Privacy Policy.
Occasionally, vx2 may collect information
about your interaction with the vx2 Software. This may include information such
as how often users use the Software, or whether or not users respond to
advertisements or offers from vx2's partners or clients. This information is
used to assess the effectiveness of our products and services. It may be shared
with vx2's partners or clients to evaluate the success of their marketing
The vx2 Software and cookies: The vx2
Software uses cookies to identify itself to the vx2 server. The cookie
maintains a unique and anonymous id for you as a user. We use this information

computer, which, generally speaking, is the only computer that can read it.
Most consumers do not know that "cookies" are being placed on their
computers when they visit websites. If you want to know when this happens, or
to prevent it from happening, you can set your browser to warn you when a
website attempts to place a "cookie" on your computer.

vx2 makes other uses of summary information
obtained by combining data from many individuals where the name and other
identifiers have been removed.
you become a vx2 user, you give us permission to use the information we have
told you that we collect, for the purposes stated here. We will not use your
personal information for other purposes without first obtaining your explicit
consent.A single exception to this rule can occur
in cases where vx2 believes in good faith that such use is required by law,
including pursuant to a subpoena, court order, legal process or warrant.
vx2 collects personal data about you only
with your consent, and only in ways that are fair and lawful. vx2 collects only
the personal data it has said it collects, and only in the ways it has said it
collects it.
vx2 uses both opt-in and opt-out media.
This means that before vx2 collects any information from you at all, we first
obtain your express consent. This includes your consent to this privacy policy
and to our terms and conditions of service.
From that time forward, you may opt-out of
the vx2 service and any further data dissemination at any time. Simply visit
http://www.vx2.cc and follow the posted instruction.
Since we are not able to authenticate our
users, vx2 is unable to allow users to access their own data without also
allowing strangers who have access to their computers to access it. We believe
that this would constitute an unacceptable compromise in data security. As a
result, we have opted to provide an anonymous user with the right to delete
anonymously any information that we may have collected about them, but not the
right to view that information. To delete information, please visit
http://www.vx2.cc and follow the posted instructions for data deletion.
To protect you personal information, it is
vx2's policy not to grant any anonymous access to that information. All access
of vx2 Media is provided only through our business development office, and only
to partners who have exceeded vx2's stringent qualification criteria. Access is
offered in a carefully controlled way designed to minimize the potential for
data misuse.
The vx2 Software is designed to work in
harmony with the security systems employed by other third party websites. If
you visit secure sites, which employ the use of SSL, the vx2 Software will
match the security that these sites offer. That is, vx2 too will use SSL to
encrypt and secure its communication with the vx2 servers when communicating
information collected.
The vx2 Software is designed to preserve
the general level of security offered to its users throughout the web, but it
does not raise it. Users should always check the privacy and security policies
of the sites that they visit.
From time to time, vx2 may engage
employees, contractors, and other companies to perform work that involves
access to personal information. If vx2 does so, it will ensure that such
parties are contractually required to keep the information confidential and not
to use it in any way other than as is necessary to perform their work for vx2.
vx2 believes that proper data security is
an ongoing process, and one that should be kept strictly confidential. vx2 uses
reasonable security safeguards to protect your data against such risks as loss,
unauthorized access, destruction, misuse, modification, or disclosure. vx2 and
its employees use both technical and procedural policies and procedures to
ensure that your data is protected from accidental disclosure or misuse.
vx2 works to reduce the likelihood of
accidental disclosures and unintended access and modification of account
information, but it is impossible to eliminate this possibility completely.
A special note about children:
vx2 wants to help parents protect the
privacy of their children. We do not consider the vx2 service to be directed to
children, and the vx2 terms and conditions of use expressly prohibit children
who are younger than 13 from participating in the service. If your child has
inadvertently enrolled in the service, you may un-enroll your child from the
vx2 service and permanently disassociate all of your child's personal
information from the vx2 database. Simply visit http://www.vx2.cc and follow
the posted instructions to delete data.

Heights Foundation Seeks Donations for School Supply Outreach
Businesses, Churches and Organizations are asked to Contribute
(Fort Myers – July 2, 2012) - The Heights Foundation is seeking businesses, churches and organizations to provide school supplies for the Foundation's annual outreach program. The August 2nd event provides supplies for nearly 400 low-income children living in the Harlem Heights neighborhood.
"Our goal is to ensure that every child has the necessary supplies to succeed in school," said Julie Workman, Director of Programs and Community Outreach for the Heights Foundation. "The poverty rate for children in Harlem Heights is more than twice the county average. Many parents cannot provide all the things their student will need. We want to send children back to school ready to learn."
The Foundation has a wish list that groups can complete. "We are looking for organizations whose members can band together to meet the need. A local church can hold a drive to provide all the pencils we need, a business or philanthropic organization may be able to provide backpacks for all of the children."
Businesses, churches or organizations interested in participating can contact Julie Workman at (239) 482-7706 or email@example.com. All donations are tax deductible. Monetary donations can be made on the web at www.heightsfoundation.org/get-involved.
About the Heights Foundation
The Heights Foundation is a 501(c)3 grassroots organization that works to build strong, self-sufficient families in the Harlem Heights neighborhood. The Foundation's mission is to promote family and community development, support education, health and wellness, and provide the benefits of enrichment, expressive and cultural arts.
Harlem Heights was originally settled as a rural agricultural community. Approximately 1,200 children live in a mixture of single-family homes and multi-family apartments. Demographically, the population is approximately 55% Hispanic, 36% African-American, and 9% Caucasian. The poverty rate for children in Harlem Heights is more than twice the county average, with family income 40% below the county average.

Thursday, January 31, 2013
A Kansas Senate committee has endorsed anti-racketeering legislation aimed at increasing sentences for convicted gang leaders.
The Judiciary Committee's action Thursday sends the measure to the full Senate for debate.
The bill would create the Kansas Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act, better known as RICO.
The statute would resemble the federal RICO law, which was enacted to combat the Mafia and allows prosecutors to charge gang members for engaging in a string of criminal activity, rather than for individual crimes.
A similar bill died in the House two years in a row but it's been updated with stricter provisions focusing mainly on serious felonies.
Wichita Police Lt. Scott Heimerman helped draft the revised measure, which he says is aimed at gang leaders.

Being able to adapt to and reduce potential flaws is essential for elite performance. Too often attention is given to the wrong area. For example, many coaches instruct the early vertical forearm, but the inhibitors may exist outside of the water that make these cues useless. It's like yelling at a turtle to get up on its hind legs and dance- not physically possible!If something cannot be performed on land, then it is unlikely to occur in the water. This is not to say that performing the early vertical forearm repeatedly on land is a good idea, as this needlessly increases the risk of injury. However, screening to identify limitations is a mandatory step if coaches want their "EVF" cues to further their swimmers performance (rather than frustrate everyone involved.)
Deficiencies in muscle length, muscle strength, and muscle timing often prevent ideal movement. If a muscle is overactive, range of motion for the joint will be impaired. If it is weak, the body is unable to perform the movement properly. If it doesn't have the muscle timing, then co-activation and aberrant movement exist, exacerbating and potentially inducing the aforementioned conditions. Much more about this can be found in the Swimmers Shoulder System or Troubleshooting publication with Allan Phillips (planned release date December 2012).
Another common mistake is to only consider the shoulder complex when addressing deficiencies. I believe that the shoulder is the first area to consider, as many of the answers are found in this joint. However, a joint by joint approach is necessary for maximum benefits. This typically means improving the joints proximal (cervical spine) and distal (thoracic spine) to the glenohumeral joint but could potentially be further away (hip or ankle). This makes it imperative to check for muscle length, strength, and timing at these joints as well.
The first step to assessing whether an athlete get achieve an EVF is determining whether the athlete has the necessary range of motion outside of the pool. If they do not, it is likely they have tight muscles (such as, potentially the infraspinatus) inhibiting this motion. However, assessing the muscle strength of the rotator cuff and scapular stabilizer muscles is key. Lastly, seeing if the athlete has control at the end range of internal and external rotation is key, as proper motor control or timing is essential for an proper early vertical forearm.
Next, check the neck range of motion, strength, and timing between the neck and the shoulder. If an athletes has any limitations at the neck, they could have impairments at the shoulder as many of the cervical muscles attach to the shoulder blades and collar bone.
The thoracic spine is a potential structure that limits EVF capability If the athlete has poor thoracic extension range, they it is likely their rotator cuff muscles have inadequate room for movement, potentially resulting in impingement. Also, if the thoracic spine and shoulder muscles do not work together, then as the shoulder flexes the thoracic spine may not respond with the necessary extension. Moreover, if the athlete performs flexion and internal rotation (EVF) the spine must slightly extend, allowing adequate rotator cuff and shoulder blade movement.

For high investment yields that are worth the extra risk, look beyond junk bonds. Investors have piled into them, causing prices to rise and yields to fall to record lows. The BofA Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II index recently yielded just 5.7%.

Business-development companies, or BDCs, make loans to small and midsize businesses and pass the interest on to shareholders as income. They trade like stocks, much like their pass-through investment siblings, real-estate investment trusts and master limited partnerships.
Even the safest of BDC stocks are offering yields of 8%. By contrast, junk bonds are generally yielding less than 6%. Stuart Goldenberg for Barron's
BDC loans and junk bonds both carry elevated risk of default, which portfolio managers seek to keep in check with diversification and careful choosing. There are important differences between the two assets, however. Many BDC loans are "senior secured" debt, meaning that in the event of bankruptcy, they must be paid before junk bonds. Also, many BDC loans carry floating interest rates. That puts them at lower risk of price declines if rates broadly rise.
In addition, BDCs have relatively little competition. Their customers are generally too small to tap the bond market, and commercial banks are finding such lending less attractive in the wake of new capital requirements.
The dearth of rivals means that BDCs can charge rates commensurate with their risks. Most charge fees to issue loans, similar to points on a mortgage. Once the loans become securities, demand for them rises among investors that can hold such loans but can't originate them. "We're able to originate loans by putting up 98 cents on the dollar, and then sell them at 101 cents," says Leonard Tannenbaum, chief executive of Fifth Street Finance FSC 0.22727272727272727% Fifth Street Finance Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD8.82 0.02 0.22727272727272727% /Date(1416952800037-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 878695 AFTER HOURS USD8.71 -0.11 -1.2471655328798186% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 200 P/E Ratio 10.413223140495868 Market Cap 1341463188.25512 Dividend Yield 12.476190476190476% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (FSC), a BDC. "Sometimes we sell them right away."
Little wonder that BDCs have been attracting more attention of late. Wells Fargo created a BDC index in January 2011. Soon after, UBS issued exchange-traded notes that track the index. This past February, Van Eck launched the group's first exchange-traded fund, Market Vectors BDC Income BIZD 0.5154639175257731% Market Vectors BDC Income ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 19.5 0.1 0.5154639175257731% /Date(1416952798542-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 22302 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 8.512820512820513% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (BIZD). Rising recognition could eventually narrow the yield gap between BDCs and junk-bond funds. "I see an opportunity for valuation arbitrage," says Jonathan Bock, an analyst at Wells Fargo. "You pick up more than three extra percentage points versus junk-bond yields, and you get better protection."
Before buying into BDCs, however, investors should consider some of the potential pitfalls. Allied Capital and American Capital ACAS 1.1386470194239786% American Capital Ltd. U.S.: Nasdaq USD15.1 0.17 1.1386470194239786% /Date(1416952800125-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1788575 AFTER HOURS USD15.0128 -0.0872 -0.5774834437086093% Volume (Delayed 15m) : P/E Ratio 18.19277108433735 Market Cap 4026158347.06696 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1563570 More quote details and news » (ACAS) suffered high-profile blowups during the financial crisis of 2007-09. In hindsight, both companies had lent too aggressively while adding large amounts of stock exposure to their portfolios. BDCs use leverage, with a legal limit of 1:1, which amplifies the effects of excessive risk-taking. Since then, outside scrutiny of BDC loan books has risen, making today's valuations more reliable, says Bock.
Leverage can be a good thing, considering that many BDCs now can borrow at just over 6% (or 3.5%, if they use government-subsidized funds for small businesses) and lend at 10%. And many are prudent lenders; the group has managed to keep loan-loss rates at about 0.7% a year of capital deployed, below the rate of commercial banks.
BDCs must pay out the bulk of their income as dividends. Look for outfits that can cover at least three-quarters of their dividend payments with loan interest alone, before adding things like underwriting fees and gains, which can shrink in a downturn. Investor fees are important, too. Many BDCs charge like hedge funds, collecting 2% of assets plus 20% of winnings each year. Good ones have provisions that reduce management fees in the event of portfolio losses. Bad ones don't.
WELLS FARGO HAS divided the BDC universe into four tiers based on risk. Over the past two years, its top-ranked BDCs have gained a total of 36%, versus 24% for all BDCs in its coverage. Good bets from this lowest-risk group include Hercules Technology Growth, which specializes in tech companies and often negotiates for stock warrants as part of its deals. That gives it upside potential with less downside risk and mimics a tactic used by Warren Buffett in recent years. Golub Capital BDC is only three years old but is run by a firm with nearly two decades of lending experience. It has a shareholder-friendly fee structure and is particularly picky about risk. New Mountain Finance specializes in lending to companies whose earnings tend to hold up well during downturns in the economy.
Ares Capital is the largest BDC and a veteran of the financial crisis. Its shares plunged with those of Allied and American then, but with a crucial difference: Ares continued paying healthy dividends. The stock price has recovered, and while the ride for long-term holders has been anything but comfortable, it has been plenty profitable. The shares returned a total of 203% between their October 2004 debut and the end of last year. That compares with 50% for the Standard & Poor's 500 index.

God Is...Alive?
The English philosopher Andrew Flew who argued for the existence of God after a lifetime of atheism has died at the age of 87.
We live in a time of information abundance, which far too many of us see as information overload. With the sum total of human knowledge, past and present, at our fingertips, we're faced with a crisis of attention: which ideas should we engage with, and why? Big Think is an evolving roadmap to the best thinking on the planet — the ideas that can help you think flexibly and act decisively in a multivariate world.
A word about Big Ideas and Themes — The architecture of Big Think
Big ideas are lenses for envisioning the future. Every article and video on bigthink.com and on our learning platforms is based on an emerging "big idea" that is significant, widely relevant, and actionable.

The Chicago Bulls are currently in the midst of whooping the Houston Rockets. Nope, that's not a mistake. You read that right. That's something that's happening right now.
Anyways, earlier in the night, we saw a nasty incident that left Mike Dunleavy bloodied. While trying to take a charge, Dunleavy caught an elbow from Chandler Parsons, leaving a gash above his eye that had to be stitched up.
Just a heads up, it was pretty nasty, so if you don't like blood, you probably shouldn't watch this.

Hazmat team sent to motel meth lab
Updated On: Nov 07 2012 04:52:14 PM EST
A hazardous materials unit was sent to a West Chester motel after a possible meth lab was discovered there.
Police said the methamphetamine lab was reported Wednesday morning at the Tri-County Inn in the 10100 block of Princeton Glendale Road.
The report was apparently made by another guest shortly after noon.
Officers said they found precursors to the drug in Room 417, and several nearby rooms were evacuated while the area was cleared.
Police arrested Jerry D. Marcum Jr. and Brenda Dungan, each of Hamilton, and charged them with illegal manufacturing of drugs and illegal assembly of chemicals.
Marcum was also charged with tampering with evidence.

CHICAGO (AP) - Jonathan Toews and Andrew Shaw scored power-play goals in the second period, and the Chicago Blackhawks avoided elimination with a 4-1 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday night in Game 5 of the second-round playoff series.
Shaw added his third career playoff goal in the third as the Blackhawks stopped the Red Wings' three-game winning streak by creating chaos in front of Jimmy Howard, who had shut down Chicago's attack while moving Detroit to the brink of the Western Conference finals.
Bryan Bickell scored the first goal of the game and Corey Crawford had 25 stops for Chicago, which managed only two goals during its first three-game losing streak of the season.
Daniel Cleary scored for the second straight game for Detroit, which will have another chance to close out the top-seeded Blackhawks in Game 6 on Monday night.
