The $7-million paving and widening project affecting nearly four miles of SH 18 north of Shawnee and through Meeker is progressing on schedule with traffic in one area now switched from the east to west side.
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation is working the project in Lincoln County, with work beginning at County Road 108 and going 3.8 miles north to U.S. 62.
Traffic that once diverted onto a short loop on the east side of SH 18 is now switched back to the west side so crews can begin construction of drainage areas on the east side, said Cody Boyd, ODOT spokesman.
"Drivers are doing well with the change and are getting used to the new configuration," Boyd said, reminding drivers to continue to be aware of any changes in construction.
The project includes widening from a two-lane to a four-lane a one-mile section of SH 18 from U.S. 62 going south. After that, the road is being widened to include shoulders on both sides of a new two-lane road.
"They're on schedule for completion near the end of April," Boyd said.
Watch for updates.

Today's letters: Federal budget
Published: Sunday, March 31, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 29, 2013 at 5:24 p.m.
To the editor: I noticed that Gov. Pat McCrory is going to hit our federal pocketbook for help repairing storm damage up here in the western part of the state, suffered when we were hit with heavy rains and subsequent landslides and flooding.
I want to ask our esteemed governor how he could expect any federal help if his party succeeds in shrinking our government to the size of something that could be drowned in a bathtub? He better hope he gets it sooner rather than later if our federal budget gets cut so severely that such aid would only be a pipe dream, and the state would then have to handle it the best it could.
Thats the problem with trying to demand a balanced budget federally when disasters happen all around our country and each state affected needs massive help immediately. And that is one example of why cutting to balance should be undertaken very carefully.

To the editor: Despite cost questions, Flat Rock Village Council backs a project to buy a golf course and build a green gateway. What right do members of this group have to spend our tax dollars on building monuments to themselves? They are certainly not showing any signs of being fiscally responsible.
The decision to spend these dollars in our current economy does not exude signs of fiscal responsibility.
Why is this decision not being put to the vote of the people? These so-called leaders are afraid the residents of the town will vote overwhelmingly no. Our residents have already expressed themselves, saying they do not want this park, and yet our leaders refuse to listen.
Lets face it. Flat Rock is an aging community, and this park is the last thing it needs.
The maintenance on this park alone is a strapping figure, not to say how much money it will be taking off the tax rolls. Where does the village expect to regain that loss of income? In all the numbers that have been released, there has not been an amount for liability insurance, security or other costs that will arise from the dawn-to-dusk park.

A true leader
To the editor: This in response to Mr. John Knapps letter accusing the president of being a politician and not a leader. What he is saying is complete nonsense.
He talks about the president not having any flexibility when it comes to the sequester. Absolutely true he gave John Boehner and his boys a warning that this would happen if the Republicans chose not to get a budget done. He said there would be no easy off ramp for them. They chose to test him, and now, like the writer, they are crying foul.
Unlike the writer, more people are seeing him exactly for what he is, a leader. According to recent Gallup polls, the president has a 50 percent approval rating even Fox has him at 46 percent. When people were asked who they trusted more to lead the economy, the president or the GOP, he won again, 44 to 40. Republicans in Congress have a 24 percent approval rating; the Democrats, 34 percent. Congress itself, since the advent of the tea party, has a 16 percent approval rating, the lowest since Gallup started keeping records.
You folks really have to realize you got spanked in the election and that he is the president of the United States.

Lacrosse Shorts - Dark green - Extra Large
There is only one goalie on a lacrosse field. The goalie's job is to save the ball. The goalie uses a head specifically designed for saving shots. Goalie heads are taller and a lot wider than all the other positions' heads. Goalies also use a s goalie shaft (40" shaft). The goalie's pocket is also deeper than everyone else's pocket to keep the ball from bouncing out of the stick when saving a shot. The goalie does not wear any elbow pads to allow maximum mobility to save tough shots. All goalies are required to wear a throat guard and a chest protector and a protective cup.

Debra: That's huge. Because if you don't set goals for yourself then how do you know if it's been successful or not? You might be building awareness but you're not seeing prescription lift. But was your goal to build awareness? What mixes of volume were you playing with?
Monique: Are we assuming that multichannel is the gold standard? What about doing one or two things very well? Why assume that having more channels is more influential?
Karl: I think that employing multiple channels acknowledges that there are not only different values to our customers from a brand perspective but that people learn in different ways. I mean, we know more and more that physicians are active with mobile at point of care. They are engaging in websites before, during, after hours. Reps are limited. So I don't think it's that we're saying that you have to cover all channels to have a meaningful relationship with them but until we understand our audiences' preference of engagement, we're missing opportunities. If we all had the biggest budgets in the world we'd just plaster every avenue and see how it goes. But I think that if you employ multichannel marketing successfully, you start with a wider net and then you start focusing in for different patient types. You're able to turn off channels depending on preference. That gives them a customized, personalized experience. So, I'm no longer hitting them with e-mails if they haven't engaged in three or four months. I'm not inviting them to speaker meetings if they've never gone to one. If they go to every conference, I'm going to focus on trying to engage that physician at that point. There's a lot of physicians that are no-see and don't want rep interaction; they want to learn on their own. We just need to help facilitate it.
Debra: First, you have to understand what your issues are and then appropriately segment your budget in order to deal with those specific issues. So, if you have a large managed care challenge and you're not covered on most plans, you may choose a different strategy than a brand that is covered. But once you choose those channels, it's very important to pilot programs. You can do it in a way that while other things are going on that you're doing traditionally, you maybe pilot something that may be a little nontraditional, to see how it works. Then if you start to see the benefits you can roll it out on a larger scale. In certain channels, you can tweak along the way, but with others you know it is going to be a three-month experience.
Karl: Calibration takes discipline. We report on metrics monthly to our clients… about iPad engagement, mobile engagement, website, e-mail, conference, everything. But we encourage our team and the client that we work with not to calibrate more than once a quarter because we want to see trends. You can get skewed by some strange engagements in a month. But one of the benefits —and challenges—as technology advances, is that we have more real-time access to these metrics. It can get you jittery, where you become impatient to wait for trends or to see things.

UTG Covert Ops Dual Pistol Case
$ 17.99
UTG Covert Ops Dual Pistol Case - Quantity:
Registered User Login:
- HonestyI named this review 'Honesty' because i DO NOT own this item. But i did get a chance to look this case up and down because my brother bought one for myself.
I was very jealous when he got it. This is made by UTG and when UTG puts their effort into something, they can make an excellent product. This is one of those products.
Its stitched double for extra strength. My brother dropped his completly filled with his two glocks and 8 mags (1 in each gum) on a concrete floor and it did not harm a single item inside. The bb's blew out of one of the mags but i think that was because of the force of impact.
This is relativly cheap and would make an awesome present for someone you know in need of a good pistol carry case. I reccomend this but its not a top priority buy. Its still a good idea, tho'
*gives it a 5 for good effort*
- Great CaseI have a Smith and Wesson 1911, as well as a dragon, and this case is perfect for fitting my guns, spare mags, and my utg speed loader(amazing and much needed accessory). All in All this is a great case that I am very pleased with, and yes, i really could fit a sandwich in there, however, i don't reccomend it, could get crumbs on your prized possesions. Lol.
- Nice I got this case for my V2 Dragons. This case is the best case for pistols, unless you want to spend way more and get a hard case. But I still think that this is at least as good because it hold two pistols and six magazines, not to mention the huge pocket on the side. In the big pocket I usually put gas and some BBs, only KSCs of course.
Overall: Five stars
Coolness: Awsome
Convenience: Really nice
Value: Extremely good
Pwnage: Great
- GreatI can't believe this thing! I am very impressed with the amount of stuff this thing can carry for being so small. I love how you can have 2 guns and able to hold 6 magezines. It is also very durable the outer shell is hard and water resistant which is great because if you are biking home or walking home or during a war this won't get wet unless you are STUPID and left it OPEN. If I were you I would stop reading this review and get this d@mn bag thingy
Cheeks Out
- Great for storageI would get this bag if you are really into air softing and you need a place to store some stuff that you can't handle. Shorty is always very reliable so choose them and no one else no matter there price.
- Nice for storage or transportI've checked this out at my local flea market (where cheap airsoft is around every corner, but no one is going to spend $150 on something they've never heard of) and it looked nice. The build is pretty nice, good for the price, but certainly not the best. The padding isn't very thick however, and I think that if you hit it hard or dropped it with pistols inside they might get damaged. Understand that in any pistol case, even the best hard case, your gun is still going to receive quite a shock if dropped. So this case's main purpose is for transport or maybe storage. Obviously its not a good idea to transport a real-looking airsoft gun out in the open and this is also better than having your guns being knock around loose in a gym bag or something. Six mag pouches may seem like alot, but when you think about it it really isn't. First off, lets say you have 1 spare magazine for each of your guns. Now of course you shouldn't leave mags in your gun, no matter what, and then you have 4 pouches taken up. Put in a pair of UTG speedloaders or a silencer and your set. The only reason that i didn't get it was for the price [it was $30 at the flea] and I already had a case. Bottom line is to get ti if you don't already have something better.
- lots of room!this thing is awesome! it holds two(2) pistols! unlike those hard case gun cases that cost more but only hold one(1). Also six(6) mag sotrage places! thats awesome...plus u get the pocket on the outside that u can put ur bbs in
- Very goodThis case is very helpful, and useful, it's price is pretty good and it is
definitely worth it.
- REALLY good for defending basesIf ur in a building, you can dual weild some nice electric pistols and a regular aeg and keep an area for at least 5 mins on your own, unless they flood you or they have a sniper. This allows you to carry all your stuff over to a nice camping/ defending position carrying 2 pistols and tons of extra mags. reloads take no time with this, since all your mags are in a fold open case instead of crammed into all your pockets or a backpack. really nice case.
hope this helped -=LOGAR=-
- its overdoneit works well but there is no need. no one has 6 clips. (i play with aegs we have about 20 dudes and none of us have even 4 clips. so dont buy unless you have two VERY EXPENCIVE GAS guns and 4 clips for each gun.

Simon & Schuster Book Jacket Competition
Category: Art, Blogs, Books, Competitions, Design / Editorial, Design / Packaging, Design / Publishing, Design / Typography, Designers/Studios, Events/Exhibitions,
Posted: Sep 14th 2012
No. of comments: 1
Next year, Simon & Schuster will be celebrating the 60th anniversary of Ray Bradbury's classic dystopian novel, Fahrenheit 451. It is a book that has remained meaningful, thought-provoking and relevant to every generation that reads it, regardless of how much the world has changed.
To help celebrate this momentous birthday, Simon & Schuster is launching a contest to redesign the iconic book jacket. The winning design will be used for the first print run of the anniversary edition in the spring of 2013, and the designer will be awarded $1,500!
Entries can be submitted and viewed on our dedicated Tumblr page: fahrenheit451jacketcontest.tumblr.com/. You can also find the full rules and guidelines there. We'll be accepting submissions until November 30th, and the winner will be announced at the American Librarian Association Midwinter conference in January.
Comments: 1
Greg SturmanUnited Kingdom, London | Sep 15th 2012This is a great competition for a great novel. However, before anyone here gets too excited about entering a cover design, it appears in order to meet the submission criteria you must be a resident of the USA. A shame, as that rules out many of us from entry. Oh well. Good luck to any Americans who do wish to enter!

Men's Converse Star Player Rise Casual Shoes
Buy Online & Pick Up In-Store
Enjoy the classic style of Converse in the Converse Star Player Rise Casual Shoes. They have the same great vintage vibe as the All Stars but with some unique details to differentiate yours from the rest.
The extra padding around the collar and the sides offer some extra comfort and the mesh holes throughout the shoe's synthetic material on the sides offer breathability, which is a different look and feature from the original All Stars, which have a canvas structure.
The diamond tread pattern on the thick rubber outsole, however, is unchanged from the original version, while the cushioned footbed is also nothing new, but that doesn't mean it won't keep your feet feeling comfortable.
- UPPER: Synthetic with mesh cutouts
- MIDSOLE: Cushioned footbed

Urban Interiors in contemporary China
Invited speaker at World Interiors EventAmsterdam,7 September 2013
China's extreme rapid economic, and societal changes are perhaps best illustrated by the changing use of outdoor spaces, the 'urban interior'. Urbanization can be seen as a means to improve the general quality of life, but in China it has been official policy for more than a decade now to use urbanization as a main driver to stimulate the economic growth. Design and construction are money-driven activities here. How can a designer respond?

LAKE TAHOE - Near South Lake Tahoe is a spectacular, glacially-carved basin known as Desolation Wilderness. TowerNear South Lake Tahoe is a spectacular, glacially-carved basin known as Desolation Wilderness. Towering above the shattered cliffs and glacial debris looms Dick's Peak, elevation 9,974 feet, standing stoic and solitary in this region of rugged extremes. The obdurate mountain is a fitting monument to Captain Richard Barter, a man whose remarkable feats of survival have withstood the test of time.
Dick Barter was a retired British sea captain who shipped into Tahoe when he was hired by the son of commercial stager Ben Holladay. Holladay's stage line ran 2,000 miles from the Mississippi River to Placerville, Calif. The most direct overland route to California's gold fields passed through South Lake Tahoe. In 1862, Ben Holladay pre-empted the unoccupied land surrounding picturesque Emerald Bay and built a two-story, five-room villa. The following year he turned the property over to his son who hired Captain Barter to take care of the estate during the harsh winter months.
The decision to employ an old sea captain to protect a remote mountain hideaway made good sense. When deep snow blanketed the Sierra, the only way in or out of the bay was by boat. To survive the winter there a caretaker had to be seaworthy. Captain Barter was definitely the right man for the job.
Barter's solitary life at Emerald Bay was full of hardship and danger, but for 12 years the captain lived the life of a recluse at Holladay's isolated cottage. The old sailor was a real-life Robinson Crusoe who possessed a fatalistic spirituality. He expected death to come by drowning, avalanche, or grizzly bear attack.
Despite his eccentric lifestyle, the venerable sailor gained a reputation as an easy going old salt who enjoyed the taste of bourbon whiskey. If Barter craved a drink and conversation during the snowbound winter, he sailed for it. It was 16 miles from Emerald Bay to the saloon in Tahoe City, and a risky voyage in a small boat. But neither distance nor danger deterred Barter's efforts to reach his favorite watering hole.
In January 1870, he almost met his maker when a sudden gust upset his boat two miles off Sugar Pine point. He struggled frantically in the cold water, but finally succeeded in getting back into the boat. The weather was intensely cold and deadly hypothermia was setting in, but Barter refused to give up. After what seemed like an eternity in the numbing water, the 63-year-old skipper climbed back into the little dinghy and furiously rowed against the biting wind shouting, "Richard Barter never surrenders! Richard Barter never surrenders!" The old captain's grim determination saved his life.
The half-frozen sailor rowed into Emerald Bay at daybreak, but his ordeal was far from over: Months later he recounted his story to a visiting journalist from the San Francisco Chronicle: "And so, after many hours' labor, I reached my landing, crawled into the house, and for 11 weeks I never left; 'cause you see, my feet and one hand was froze and I couldn't get out." Since he couldn't walk on his feet he tied a small cushion to each knee in order to get around. Despite his serious injuries, the old captain wasn't idle. During his three-month solitary confinement Barter meticulously crafted a 7-foot miniature model of a man-o'-war steam frigate. He showed it to the newspaper reporter who noted that it was a marvel of workmanship. Every rope, block, and sail was in its proper place; a wind-up clock hidden in the hold drove the running gear and propeller. On the deck of the wooden vessel stood 225 crew members, officers, marines, boatswains, and sailors, all hand-carved from small pieces of wood.
It was an amazing feat, but the self-reliant recluse had also built and rigged a full-sized boat. No small replica, the ship weighed four tons, which he launched by himself. Not a single person had visited him throughout the whole winter. After examining the two boats and appreciating the physical challenge their construction required, the journalist was a bit skeptical that the old sailor had really experienced that near-fatal ordeal the previous winter. To prove his case, Barter limped over to a dressing table in Holladay's cottage and removed a small jewelry box. He lifted the lid and handed it to the newspaperman. "Them's my toes!" Captain Dick exclaimed proudly. Inside the little box were several of the captain's frostbitten toes that he had amputated and then salted to preserve as a memento of his fearful night on Lake Tahoe.
Barter knew that his luck on Tahoe wouldn't last forever. On Fannette Island he chipped out a burial crypt in the granite, installed a coffin, and erected a small wooden chapel over it as his final resting place. But he would never get the opportunity to use it. Fate finally caught up with Barter in October 1873 while he was sailing back from South Lake Tahoe where he had spent the evening drinking. A sudden wind came and overturned his boat, sending him to the depths of Tahoe. Portions of the wrecked boat were salvaged off the rocks near Emerald Bay, but Captain Barter's body was never recovered.

The city's transparency has come under attack over the past several months.
It comes from people who have always been critical of the council, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but their voices lately appear to be the only ones heard. When the voices of displeasure are left unchallenged or unmatched, they are the ones who get to write the narrative.
Some have come up with tangible solutions to complement their criticisms.
Others seem content with discontent.
Their voices make a point, but their own hypocrisy and unwillingness to engage in a constructive process cloud whatever good points they actually have.
Overtures of cooperation are ignored.
Offers to join the process to find a solution to the budget problem are declined.
Meetings to go over the council agenda are not attended by some who are invited.
Criticisms from an outsider are taken as Gospel truth and no attempt is made to get the official response from those who are actually involved with the process.
Personal relationships trump ethical standards of seeking the truth.
When offers are made for a meeting to go over why two parties disagree, they are ignored.
Grudges are the norm; solutions are damned.
Has the city been perfect? No. Mistakes have been made over the years, but not listening to the other side hasn't been among them.
The city is in trouble. The budget is ugly and what the city needs are voices of constructive criticism now more than ever.
Propagandists guised as truth tellers and those with grudges guised as critics are casting the seeds of discontent in this community and tearing it apart.
Blind obedience to the government can never work, nor can permanent distrust.
The current council wants transparency and has met that goal with varying degrees of success.
To fail to participate in the process and to then use your non-participation as proof of a lack of transparency is not just wrong but viciously destructive.

Driver in head-on collision charged with DWI
Published: Thursday, December 6, 2012 at 6:40 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 6, 2012 at 6:40 p.m.
A Hendersonville man has been charged with driving while impaired after a head-on collision sent three to the hospital with serious injuries, including a mother and her infant son.
Trooper Bryan Stroup said Paul Jeffrey Satterfield, 56, of Hendersonville was driving under the influence of drugs when he crossed the center line on Kanuga Road Monday afternoon and crashed into a Honda SUV carrying Heather Stepp and her 6-month-old son, Ely Stepp.
All three were rushed to Pardee Hospital, and mother and son were then airlifted to Mission Hospital.
Satterfield has also been charged with careless and reckless driving. More charges may be pending.
Stroup said Satterfield has a history of traffic-related violations, but no previous charges for DWI. Excessive speed was not considered a factor in the wreck, according to Stroup.
The force of the impact left baby Ely in critical condition with a brain injury, broken left leg, a cut on his liver and a skull fracture, according to relatives. He remains in Mission's Prenatal Intensive Care Unit.
"Heather has two broken feet in addition to her crushed left ankle. Her right elbow may also be broken," said her cousin, Kim Crank. "They are saying she won't walk again without pain and possibly assistance."
Heather Stepp, a 26-year-old mother of three, was heading into town for lunch with Ely, who was strapped in a car seat.
An account called the "Heather and Ely Fund" has been set up for those who wish to donate at the Local and State Government Employee's Credit Union.

Rebekah Nelson received an honorable mention for her photograph entry to the "Beauty of the Heartland Photo Contest" sponsored by the USDA, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services, Vet Services and Plant Project Quarantine. Rebekah is a member of the Walton 4-H Club. She is the daughter of Shelley and Phil Nelson.
The offices of the United States Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services, Veterinary Services and Plant Protection Quarantine are being re-located to a different building in Topeka. Their mission each day is to protect and promote the health and value of American agriculture and natural resources. They asked for the assistance of Kansas 4-H photographers in adorning their new office with photographs depicting the true aspect of agriculture in Kansas, and the "Beauty of the Heartland." All photos needed to follow the theme of agriculture in Kansas being indicative of agriculture or rural living in Kansas.
Top winners from each category will be enlarged and displayed within the department's office. Rebekah's photo is on display in a photo journal in their waiting room for all to enjoy.
Burrito sale, livestock contest postponed
The best plans don't always go as planned. The Newton FFA Livestock Judging Contest scheduled for this weekend had to be cancelled. As a result, the 4-H members will not be making tacos and burritos for sale.
So... if you still want some tacos and/or burritos, please pre-order them by March 18. We will be making them at our next club meeting on March 25. Contact any Jr. Leader or call the extension office at 284-6930 and we can put you on the list.
The FFA contest will be rescheduled, but a date is not yet available.

Even though Belgium is small, there's still some nice design to be found here (sometimes you just need to search a bit first:)
A very cool advertising agency / studio that only seems to work for 'fun' clients (fashion, museums, music...) is BaseDesign.
They're also based in NY, Barcelona, Madrid and Santiago. They often look for interns too...
Two very small but very hip and nice studios are Jan & Randoald and Code Frisko
Enjoy :)

Henderson County public salary database
Published: Sunday, February 10, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, February 8, 2013 at 9:55 a.m.
The Times-News is posting this public salaries database to let taxpayers know how much they are paying their employees. Our purpose is not to embarrass anyone. Instead, we want to give readers access to public information that is not readily available from local and state agencies.
This database contains salary information for public workers in Henderson County who earned $50,000 per year or more in the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2012.
The salary information was provided by Henderson County Public Schools, Henderson County government, the city of Hendersonville, Blue Ridge Community College, the municipalities of Laurel Park, Fletcher and Mills River, and the Office of the State Controller.
In some cases, the total earnings of public employees are higher than the salary information reported by the agency. Henderson County Public Schools, for example, reported its employees' state base pay. Those employees also receive a local supplement, which is 5.5 percent for those with teaching degrees and 2.75 percent for others. The state also reported base pay for judicial system employees, who may earn additional longevity pay.
Our goal has been to give readers the best numbers we could, as provided by public bodies. The Times-News is committed to expanding and updating these numbers to provide a clearer picture of how the public's tax dollars are spent.

Right in the heart of vibrant Manchester on the popular Oxford Road, sits the iconic four-star Palace Hotel with its distinctive clock tower that towers over the Manchester skyline.
The landmark building of The Palace began life back in 1885, as the headquarters of the refuge Assurance. Designed by the eminent Victorian architect Alfred Waterhouse, the building is ornately gothic with richly glazed decorative tiles, paneling and plasterwork. Principal Hotels have transformed this landmark building into a four-star luxury hotel and its current £7 million refurbishment further ensures that the charisma and charm of the Grade II listed building continues.

The shortest distance between two objects is a straight line. That's the way the two medics saw it as they headed their ambulance toward the rural medical emergency. The only problem was this path was seldom traveled and mostly dirt road. That may have been why they didn't see the "Low Water Crossing" sign.
After the ambulance came to rest on the far side of the crossing – without it's front wheels – the department called the fix-it guy – Master Mechanic Glen Wendt.
Glen recently concluded a career of over two decades as the Master Mechanic for the Salina Fire Department. He is truly an amazing mechanic, and moreover an amazing man.
The role that emergency personnel perform is worthy of the hero title, but what about their support crew? How great would any firefighter be if he was all dressed up in his turnout gear and his fire truck wouldn't move? He would be like a Dead Atheist – all dressed up and no place to go.
Day in and day out Glen kept the machines running – vehicles, radios, lights, air packs, extinguishers, the list goes on and on.
Heroes can be demanding. That's to be expected when lives are at stake, but that doesn't make it any easier for those getting the demands. The expectations of the support crew can sometimes be greater than that placed upon the heroes. And the support folks don't get the glory.
Machines are used on every emergency. During his time the machines always worked. And he was the reason why.
In my book that makes Glen Wendt a hero. Many times over.
Congratulations on a great career!
*Never forget to thank those who pack your parachute.

Tips received in response to Facebook postings by Jackson County Deputy Sheriffs led to the arrest of two men Tuesday night wanted for allegedly operating a clandestine methamphetamine lab discovered during a search last Thursday at a Statts Mill Road residence.
Arrested in Ripley by Sheriff's Department Lt. Todd Roberts, Deputies George Burnem and Bryan Varney and Sgt. Clyde Kenny of the Ripley Police Department were Casey S. Cummings, 27, and Matthew R, Murray, 25, both of 4117 Statts Mill Road, Statts Mill.
Detective Ross Mellinger's (lead investigator) criminal complaint indicates that after receiving information from numerous sources since the fall months of 2012, a search warrant was executed at the Cummings' residence by Mellinger and other officers, where Murray was also reported residing, at around 7:42 p.m. on January 31, 2013.
Officers found what Mellinger termed "an enormous amount of methamphetamine-related components and extensive evidence of continuous methamphetamine production."
Included were Coleman fuel, mason jars, plastic bottles filled with ammonium nitrate crystals and lithium strips, acetone, crushed pseudoephedrine tablets, vinyl gloves, empty "Cold Pack" packages, digital scales, lithium batteries, mason jars containing various liquids, vinyl tubing connected lids, coffee filters, pipe cutters and baggies containing extracted meth components consistent with the "shake and bake, one-pot method" of manufacturing meth.
While no one was at the dwelling when the warrant was executed, investigators found evidence placing both Cummings and Murray as residents.
Officers believed they had just missed Cummings and Murray at the dwelling by mere minutes.
The two were eventually located and arrested in Ripley Tuesday night through tips received in response to Facebook posting by investigators.
Both Cummings and Murray were arraigned on the felony charges of operating a clandestine drug laboratory by Magistrate Jackie Casto who set bond at $250,000 for each man.
Cummings and Murray remain lodged in the South Central Regional Jail in lieu of bond and pending further court action.
