So soft and comfy looking, but what I like best is the way the colors turned out. Did you plan it carefully or wing as you went? The effect is so sweet.

It is splendid. I look for 1960's vintage percale sheets all the time. That is all we sleep on but you have taken it twenty steps better!

Ohhh it is just darling darling darling!! And yes indeed Anthro prices are bananas! Urban Outfitters (owned by Anthro) have similar pieces a little more affordable...which is where we got our bedding....much like the waterfall bedding in an ombre.
Fabulous job! :)
Thank bunches for popping by my blog and leaving such sweet words. :)
Love from the NJ Shore!

My mouth is hanging open!! Ruffles! Oh.My.Gosh. This is just inspired. I feel like such a slacker that I can't even manage to get a couple of curtains sewn and you made this extravaganza of perfection. I usually just shout out a high-five but this is a chest bump.

I absolutely love the idea of using vintage sheets from thrift stores. This is a wonderful idea and you did such a great job mixing the fabrics. This would make great pillows as well. I just may have to give it a try. Thank you for posting.

What a great idea! I have collected some vintage sheets and now I know what to do with them! I think it looks even better than the Anthro curtain....and that's saying a lot because I love Anthro!

- Eclectically Vintage said...
This is fabulous! You should sell these! It would look amazing on my full size guest room bed (always a tough size to find something for) - a true work of art!
Pinning this (even though I can't sew a button - a girl can dream)!

Danielle! What a beautiful and yes, very Anthro-ish quilt you made! Love the way you re-purposed the vintage sheets into something so artful and useful. Love Anthropologie, but agree they are often too overpriced. Your quilt looks wonderful in the room. Great wall color!
I got excited because I just bought a vintage sheet in the same pattern as the second ruffle down in the close up pic! :-)

Oh my...dis you do all that beauty????~
Thanks for sharing!
That "thing" about "people being transparent" is kind of a privet joke: my school master is nothing but transparent - He's a bad, corrupt man. But he claims that is actions are "transparent" ( we know that it is the opposite"! This a joke...The meaning is that if he's so transparent I do not need to SEE him...or say "Hello"!
Have a blessed day!~´

I have seen these using the white or soft pastel solid fabrics but this is a fantastic idea using different vintage sheets!! I just sold 2 gorgeous sheets from my booth the other day- wonder if she was going to do something like this with them- makes me wish I had them now!

Oh...My goodness! I can imagine that sleeping on your ruffly comforter would be like sleeping on a puffy cloud!
What a beautiful and time consuming achievement!
I have made a bag that has the layered ruffles on it in vintage reproduction fabrics. It is destined to be a "giveaway" in the near future.

This is wonderful. I love the look of it. The colors and...the fact that it is recycled materials.
I hope you give a tutorial on how to do this.
This would be so sweet in my grand-daughter's room.

Gorgeous colors and what a fabulous coverlet. Want to know what I love most? How all of us have all these different tastes and passions and yet we converge upon one another and become blogger friends. Different tastes come together and make us rethink what we are doing sometimes. LOVE IT!

This looks awesome! I think it has a lot more charm than a store-bought one. Everyone with a big budget and/or their personal interior designer can have that, but making your own is so much more unique! Way to go, girl!

This is Melissa @ Daisy Mae Belle. I LOVE this quilt! I am redecorating my 12 year old daughter's room right now. She loves Anthropologie, but I do not love the price tag!

I wanted to stop by and leave a comment, not even sure that you will even see it. Wow, I'm #120 to tell you how fabulous this is. Love all the ruffles. I'm actually saving material right now to sew a similar quilt, I'm going for the shabby chic look using pinks, light greens and white. It will be a long time before mine will be finished. Until then, I'll admire yours!!

In Jamaica it means large hard penis. Woody. The big bamboo.
Steve bought a "jamaican guitar" that was made out of a large piece of bamboo. "Big bamboo" was painted on it. Steve thought it really was a jamaican musical instrument. It was not. It was the Big Bamboo! Made by the locals and sold to stupid tourists who didn't realize they were really purchasing a big penis! (Hey, mon! You see that stupid tourist spent $20 on the big bamboo!)

To anyone who has ever been a senior student athlete participating in a senior night game, you know there are mixed emotions. Coaches make efforts to play all the seniors, and depending on the postseason situation, it could be the final home game for a handful of players' careers.
There are hugs. There are tears. And for Sean Garrett, a Wando wrestler, there was a good ol' thumbs up gesture to his coach while he had his opponent pinned.
The Warriors hosted West Ashley with not only the senior night on the line, but also the school's first region regular season championship. By the time Garrett took to the mat, coach Adam Schneider said Wando had already clinched the 4A Region 7 title, so the focus became entirely on the seniors to win their matchups.
"My coach was going crazy on the sideline," Garrett, who will be attending South Carolina in the fall, said. "As I was pinning him, I gave him a thumbs up to him to know I got it. Everyone started laughing."
Schneider admitted he wasn't fond of the gesture at first for fear that it might look like he was insulting the other team, but said he realized that wasn't the intent and it was strictly out of excitement. "I was fired up on the sideline; I even threw my clipboard down," Schneider said. "It's great to see the boys hard work pay off...he was the last senior that day wrestling, and we were all pulling for him."
All Warrior seniors won their matches against the Wildcats.
Garrett considers it his best athletic moment in high school, but he had plenty to choose from. As a rare three-sport athlete at the 4A level, Garrett wrestled his junior and senior year, played football all four years and tennis all four years.
He finishes with a 3.6 GPA, in addition to the bounty of varsity letters. Tennis coach Winde Ellenberg, who nicknamed him "Muscles" because he was the strongest member of the team – the type of player who gets off the bus first after a road trip – praised his leadership and sportsmanship. "He is an excellent athlete who strives for achievement," Ellenberg said of her four-year varsity standout. Garrett's overall record was 23-2 and his senior season included being named captain and an all-region team selection.
Garrett joked that he was always on the wrong end of teammates' jokes. He was too strong to look like the typical tennis player, and the football guys wouldn't cut him any slack for playing a non-contact sport in the spring.
He said football was the most difficult sport of the three, because it was a year-round effort. When the Warriors football team was knocked out of the playoffs, Garrett had 21 days before the wrestling team's first scrimmage. That also meant dropping a dozen pounds to reach the 182-pound weight class. "The first week was really tough," he said. "With football, it was a lot of weight lifting and eating. I just ran more."
His wrestling coach knows the time crunch three-sport athletes face. He was one himself from seventh through 12th grade. "There is too much specialization in high school sports today," Schneider said. "I always encourage my wrestlers to play at least one other sport. Even at a school our size, it can be done."
He has a point. As athletes go from the recreational level to middle school to high school and beyond, the numbers dwindle considerably, especially from high school to college.
Wando football coach Jimmy Noonan echoed Ellenberg's and Schneider's sentiments. "He is an example to all student athletes that you can be well-rounded and successful in multiple sports while maintaining a rigorous academic load," Noonan said. "(He) came to workouts and practices every day with his sleeves rolled up and his work boots on."

Heard about the cat in Oregon that terrorized his humans until they barricaded themselves into a bedroom?
In case you didn't, here's the scoop, courtesy of CNN: The male Himalayan, named Lux, is owned by a woman named Teresa Barker. (Now THAT'S funny, I don't care who you are.)
One fine day Lux attacked Barker's seven-month-old son. The baby's dad, Lee Palmer, reprimanded the cat by kicking it in the rear. Lux went loony, to the point that Mom, Dad, baby and dog fled into a bedroom and called for help.
Lux, who weighs a whopping 22 pounds, "has a history of violence," Palmer said in his 9-1-1 call to Portland police. "He is very, very, very hostile." A dispatcher noted that she "could hear the cat screeching in the background."
Palmer said Lux charged every time they tried to open the door. "He's kind of a violent cat already. But he's really bad right now."
Officers were dispatched while the 9-1-1 operator remained on the line with the family. When police entered the front door Lux went on the lam, but was cornered in the kitchen. Officers used a dog snare (oh, the humiliation) to snag the cat and put him in a crate.
"It's only funny when it's not happening to you," Teresa Barker pointed out. Which is true of many things, not just a fat, homicidal cat.
Apparently the family still has Lux, which is crazy to me. I'm not going to feed something I'm afraid of. Don't get me wrong—I like cats. I've been owned by a few.
The first one I remember was Sam, a feral Siamese rescued by my mother. In gratitude, he clawed every member of the family except her. He sat on her feet and purred while she sewed.
Sam was a housecat, but one night he decided to stay outside—and bed down in the backseat of my father's lovingly restored 1934 Chevy. Dad got up at 4 a.m. every day for work, and was often half-asleep as he backed out of the driveway.
On this particular morning he heard a guttural yowl from the back seat, and a hairy projectile hurtled past his left ear and out the driver's side window. Dad backed over the rock garden and two azalea bushes, screaming like a girl. Then, trembling from head to foot, he marched back in the house, woke Mother and said a few pithy words.
Within 24 hours Sam had a new home with a kind spinster who did a lot of sewing.
Then came Chester, a docile gray tabby. He was so mellow he often slept on my pony's back in the sunshine. He didn't even attack our sexually-confused poodle, Jacques, when Jacques attempted to molest him. Our cool cat just backed into a corner and meowed until we dragged Jacques away. Sadly, Chester grew deaf in his dotage and wandered in front of a Greyhound bus.
My last cat, Mel Gibson, broke my heart. I was in college when I adopted him from the SPCA. He was a striking black-and-white dude who alternated between cuddly and coldly aloof, which only made me love him more.
After two years of bliss, Mel G began disappearing. He was gone for hours, then days. I searched the apartment complex and put up fliers. You know where he was? Two doors down. He left me and my dry Friskies for a 12-year-old who fed him canned cat food. I never got over it.
This explains why I now have dogs. They're more trouble than cats, but at least they're loyal.
Julie R. Smith, who may get another cat in her dotage, can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

A skinny fat person is a someone who appears visibly skinny with their clothes on. But, if you were to touch them or see them without clothing they are very flabby. This is very common in white people. Most white guys and girls have very little lean muscle tissue, which is why they are skinny fat people. Have you ever seen a thin white guy with no shirt on? Then you notice he has a soft pot belly and man boobs. This is a good example of what a skinny fat person is. With clothes on they appear thin to the eye, but if you were to see them unclothed their body is incredibly flabby and soft like jello. These body types are primarily due to genetics. Not everyone is naturally muscular nor will they become muscular and ripped. For some, it is not in their gentics to be muscular and well defined.

Coastal Community Foundation welcomes eight new board members. Founded in 1974 with $9,000 from the Rotary Club of Charleston to serve the tri-county area, the organization now manages more than $150 million in combined assets held in over 620 individualized funds. Thousands of donors are served and charitable organizations supported throughout eight coastal Carolina counties. The foundation is committed to taking the broadest perspective of community, evidenced through its extensive non-profit involvement and initiatives. Ranging from arts and health-related organizations to educational programming, conserving the environment, strengthening neighborhoods and sustaining human needs, Coastal Community Foundation is connected to the full spectrum of charitable and non-profit organizations. Interested in learning more about "fostering philanthropy for the lasting good of the community"? Please contact Steffanie Dohn at 843-723-635 Ext. 109.
Meet the foundation's newest board members
Todd Abedon (Charleston County) not only co-founded Chartwell Housings, a real estate investment and management firm focused on multi-family communities, but he has been visionary in the non-profit field as well. Starting Operation Home in 1997 followed by Chucktown Squash in 2008, Abedon works all angles to make South Carolina a better place. In addition to his professional and non-profit work, Abedon, also a Tuft's University graduate, is past-chair of Charleston Mayor Joseph Riley's Council on Homelessness and Affordable Housing and former founding board member of the Lowcountry Housing Trust, an advocacy group for affordable housing in the region. He also serves on the South Carolina Governor's Council for Physical Fitness. He, his wife Emily and their four children live on Sullivan's Island.
Gordon Granger (Beaufort County) was an executive with Best Foods for more than 30 years, working in countries throughout Latin America – collecting art and enjoying the culture as he and his wife, Gillian, raised five children. Although he was born in Argentina, Granger and his wife decided to retire in South Carolina and built a house on three acres of Spring Island, located south of Beaufort on the Broad River. He remarked, "After retiring, I knew that we were successful enough, and we had been thinking of helping other people, but we just didn't know how to go about the distribution or who would handle it." Having established a fund at the foundation in 2000, Granger will add a wealth of personal and professional experience to the board.
Cedric Green (Charleston County) and his wife, Rachell, live in metro Charleston, where he works as the general manager of Southern Electric Operations at South Carolina Electric and Gas Company. Prior to his work at SCE&G, Green spent seven years in fossil and hydro operations, working in engineering. Although he earned his undergraduate degree from the University of South Carolina in Mechanical Engineering in 1997, he later returned to earn his MBA and Masters of Mechanical Engineering and is now a Ph.D. student in the Mechanical Engineering program at USC. Additionally, Green serves on the Board of Directors for Charleston Trident Urban League and as chair of the Leadership South Carolina Board of Trustees.
Jim Marks (Beaufort County) has more than 35 years of experience in the education sector. Having earned an undergraduate degree from Princeton and a graduate degree from Harvard, Marks has worked as a teacher, dean of faculty, headmaster and consultant to educational organizations. He comes to the foundation with a broad perspective and large wealth of knowledge. Although he retired from his consultant position at Educator's Collaborative in 2008, he remains an active trustee at Beaufort Academy. He has also served as a trustee at Woodlands Academy of the Sacred Heart, Elgin Academy and Indian Mountain School. Additionally, Marks is a previous president of the Elementary School Heads Association and the Independent School Association of Greater Chicago.
Lawton Smith (Colleton County) joins the foundation's board with more than 14 years of diverse professional experience. Born and raised in Walterboro, Smith returned to the Lowcountry after his years at Clemson followed by time spent in Massachusetts, Charlotte and Austin, Texas. He is the president of Rhodes Oil Company and the founder of Outlier Apps, a startup that creates innovative smartphone applications for South Carolina and the world at large. In addition to his lengthy professional resume, Smith serves as director and nominations committee chair at the Walterboro-Colleton Chamber of Commerce, director for the Bank of Walterboro Board of Directors and president of the Colleton County Clemson Club.
The Reverend Bill Stanfield (Charleston County) is a co-founder of the Metanoia Community Development Corporation of North Charleston where he currently serves as the chief executive officer. Prior to his work in youth leadership development, housing development and economic development with Metanoia, Rev. Stanfield served as a chaplain, associate minister and pastoral care coordinator. In addition to his current role as Metanoia's CEO, Rev. Stanfield is an associate minister at St. Matthew Baptist Church and was named North Charleston's Citizen of the Year by the North Charleston Citizen's Advisory Council. Most recently, he and his wife have become the proud adoptive parents to two young boys from Ethiopia.
Terry Stinson (Berkeley County) is the diversity manager for Santee Cooper in Moncks Corner. In her position, she is responsible for Santee Cooper's corporate diversity initiatives and the company's affirmative action plan and assists with recruiting, training and retaining a diverse work force. In her spare time, Stinson serves as president elect and past diversity chairperson for the Tri-County Human Resource Management Association. She is also a member of the Trident Regional Educational Center Board and has served as a member of the Giving Back to Berkeley County Fund Grants Committee at Coastal Community Foundation. Stinson is a certified professional in Human Resources and has been recognized by the Riley Institute at Furman University as a Diversity Fellow.
Dawn Robinson's (Berkeley County) career at First Citizens Bank began more than 15 years ago after holding positions at NBSC and C&S Bank. She currently serves as Charleston Commercial Area Executive and is responsible for leading the bank's team of commercial relationship managers in the greater Charleston market. In that role, she partners with local small businesses and commercial clients to help them meet their financial goals. In addition to her bank responsibilities, the Pinopolis resident serves on several local boards and is a proud graduate of Leadership Charleston. Robinson is also a former Rotary Club Exchange Team member and received the Paul Harris Fellow Award for her many years of service to the North Charleston Rotary Club. In her spare time, the Wofford graduate enjoys being with her husband and two daughters.
This year also marks a change in the foundation board's leadership. The foundation announces that Bill Medich, Senior Vice President of South Carolina Bank and Trust, as its newest board chair. David Jensen of Wells Fargo Advisors will continue to serve as secretary and treasurer.
Coastal Community Foundation would also like to offer a huge thank you to its retiring board members: Henry Blackford, III, Kathleen Bounds, Frank Brumley, Norman Brunswig, David Smalls and Timothy Williams.

Good design is universal. A web page should be "accessible" whether you are using Firefox or Internet Explorer, a Mac, Linux or a Windows PC, and whether or not you have a disability. In this workshop, you will learn about accessible web page design and the Americans with Disabilities Act's Section 508, which applies to online course content. Learn how to develop accessible web pages and multimedia components in a browser-based environment that meet ADA and W3C standards. Understand how common page design problems such as frames and table-based layout cause problems for screen readers like JAWS. Consider how text transcripts or captions can enhance videos for everyone; not just the hearing impaired. Think about what sort of text should accompany a graphic or data table in order to get its meaning across. Think about use of high contrast for legibility and how adding other cues in addition to color can aid in navigation. Consider how use of cascading style sheets (CSS) can make your coding easier and your pages more customizable to the end user. Learn about accommodations you will need to make if a student discloses a disability, and about the resources that are available to help you meet their needs. View the workshop notes.
Understand Accessibility in the online environment. See how a screen reader parses information on a web page. Learn about good color choices. Learn about ALT tags and Long Description tags. Learn about the importance of text transcripts for videos. Learn about resources available through NAU's Disability Support Services office.

Whether as status symbol, "it" accessory or loyal friend, celebrities love their pets.
President Obama welcomed a new puppy on Monday: a 1-year-old female, Portuguese Water Dog named Sunny. Sunny will join the first family's other dog Bo, that was given to them in 2009 after President Obama promised his daughters a dog during the 2008 campaign.
"Sunny is the perfect little sister for Bo – full of energy and very affectionate – and the First Family picked her name because it fit her cheerful personality," reads the White House website.

happy good music
I love listening to ska.

Can you define these popular missing words?
Photos & Videos
One of the most versitile and long lasting genre of music alive today. Disregarding some peoples beliefs, Ska makes itself individualised by its brass section, walking basslines and offbeat guitar chords. There were 3 waves of ska; Trad, 2 tone and 3rd wave but most bands today are 3rd wave caus its totally cool. It has derived from alot of influences, of which jazz, reggae, swing and punk would be the most prominant. Suits, big shades and dancin' shoes are usually worn at a ska concert.
"Man, Ska is totally cool! All other music bites serious ass compared to it!"
Por Riley 31 de julio de 2003
Jamaican R&B artists developed their nation's first indigenous music genre when they began to incorporate jazz, African and Calypso rhythms into their songs in the late 1950s. The result was Ska, a fusion of the unique Jamaican mento rhythms with R&B. In Ska, the drum comes in on the 2nd and 4th beats, while the guitar emphasizes the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th beats. Ska bands usually consist of a strong rhythm section, guitars, keyboards and brass. The early Ska music of in the '60s and '70s spawned later revivals. The first was in the U.K. in the '80s, giving rise to bands like Madness and the Specials. The next, known as Third Wave Ska, struck the U.S. in the '90s.
Ska: Laurel Aitken, Don Drummond, Lord Tanamo, No Doubt, Mustard Plug, Hopalong Knut, Reel Big Fish, Skadaddyz, The Toasters, The Skatalites, Less Kro, The Busters, One Cool Guy, The Selecter, RX Bandits, The Planet Smashers, Desmond Dekker, The Specials, The English Beat, Madness, Operation Ivy, Big D And The Kids Table, Bim Skala Bim, Catch 22, Buck-O-Nine, Streetlight Manifesto, The Suicide Machines, Troy's Bucket, Bad Manners, The Forces Of Evil, Go Jimmy Go, Upstanding Youth, Skarface, The Pietasters, Mad Caddies, Save Ferris, Suburban Legends, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, The O.C. Supertones, The Scofflaws, and Hepcat.
Por ♫ Highway to Hell ♫ 03 de febrero de 2010
A genre of music stylized by the influences of American jazz and swing, born out of Jamaica. It underwent three waves, Trad(itional), Two-Tone, and 3rd wave. The guitar is always played on the off beats, or "upstrokes." The bass line is almost always a walking bass line unless the band is more punk influenced (however, ska is what helped bring about punk), and there is a horn line, usually with some swinging stuff. Ska gave birth to many different types of music, such as rocksteady, reggae, punk, rap and hip-hop (it's true).
Reel Big Fish (3rd wave), The Skatalites(trad), the toasters(3rd wave) and the specials(two-tone).
Por Roadie 16 de agosto de 2004
A music genre created in Jamaica. The orginal music called ska is now called first wave. Then it went to England and became two tone because of racial unity between black and whites. Then it moved into America and became third wave because it was more punk influenced in America. Ska bands are defined because of the guitars and keyboards playing on the upbeat, not because of horn sections, which are also commonly ascociated with ska. Ska gave birth to reggae, rocksteady, dub, and punk. Ska is also considered the opposite of emo because emo is usually more sadder sounding whereas ska is more happy sounding. The horn sections in ska bands are usually made up of saxes, trumpets, and trombones.
First Wave Band - Skatalites
Two Tone Band - Specials
Third Wave Band - Toasters
-Hey man what are you listening to?
-Ska rules, man!

Ska is a type of music that has an upbeat guitar sound. It is normally acompanied by horns but not always. Ska has been around since the late 1950's and Reggae originated from it. Ska, today, has more of a punk influence to it. It was not originated from punk, since Ska came around before punk. The two sounds mixed together when Ska hit the America music scene.
The Skatalites, The Selecter, The Specials, etc.
Por Adrian 21 de febrero de 2003
A genre of music often mis-identified by pop-rock, rap and country fans as being a new band rather than a whole genre.

additional to the previous definitions: australia (and new zealand) are sheep-farming countries and our populations are familiar with many of the aspects of farming livestock. a "dag" or "dags" is the colloquial term for the dung which collects and mats into the fleece immediately surrounding a sheep's anus; it hangs in dried-out dangling clumps which make a sound when the sheep runs, hence the phrase "rattle your dags". a sheep should be "ring crutched" to avoid or relieve this condition: crutching is the removal by shearing of all fleece surrounding the genitals usually in a circular shape or ring. a sheep not cared for properly in this way will otherwise collect dags - hence the possible connection to insults concerning fashion and appearance. the sight of a daggy sheep is unattractive and comical, although the mats of contaminated fleece may be painful and usually attract blowflies and other pests; and therefore to call someone "daggy" is to liken them directly to a neglected sheep's anal region suffering from this condition.

May also come from the Tasmanian sheepfarming term 'to dag the hogget', i.e. to remove the testacles of a sheep by biting open the scrotum and sucking them out of the sack. After a day of this gruelling work one would be left covered in sheep's blood and faeces, leaving the person 'daggy'. See Errol Flynn's autobiography 'My Wicked Wicked Ways' for a graphic description of this practice.
My face and neck were covered in sheep crap after a hard afternoon of dagging the hogget. I was totally daggy.

But oh how that's changed... that girl likes to be kept close. All the time. It's either me or hubby- and she now gets so excited when she see us pick up a sling to put it on.
I'm always big on not wearing babies only for the convenience- you don't always have to be doing something or have your hands free. Maybe just keeping them close is the only something you should be doing at the time. But, I also now realize that often if I don't have her in the sling, I have no other chance to get things done. Like the dishes, laundry, playing with the boys, grocery shopping, etc. Many times, to accommodate the other children, I need her to nap in the sling and I am thankful that is a viable option.
Ivy is almost 9 months old and about 20 lbs now (maybe more) and my favorite carry is on my front in the Ergo or in the mei tai on my back. But let's be honest, sometimes it's all about whatever matches my outfit at the time (am I right?).
This is a photo of me at a party this weekend with Ivy in the Freehand mei tai.
Just this week I had the opportunity to use a woven wrap for the first time- all out of the generosity of my blog & Twitter friend Robin from Woowoo Mama. She mailed me her most favorite Didymos (for the babywearing techies: violet and white pfau dyed black cherry 6) so that I could try it out.
I am having fun perfecting the different carries with the wrap- and the front wrap cross carry is a new one that I am getting the hang of. I haven't taken a picture of her in it yet but I will try to do that tomorrow. When I send it back to Robin I might get back into wearing my Gypsy Mama wrap again. That is one I liked wearing in the summer with Gray when he was Ivy's age. And if anything else, it's probably my prettiest carrier.
I was thinking of taking another babywearing stash photo again, soon, and encourage others to do the same. I might just photograph only the ones I use right now and have a link up. What do you think? Would you play along?
And out of curiosity- what is your absolute favorite carrier and position, and what age is your baby at the time?

Tuesday, July 9, 2013
A concerned citizen called police to report an intoxicated driver. The vehicle in question was located in a parking space in an apartment complex, and the driver was lying down in the seat.
She was asleep when the officer approached and knocked on the window and tried to wake her up.
He finally had to open the door to get her attention, the report stated.
She sat upright and the officer asked her if she knew where she was. She told him she was at the police station.
She handed over her ID which police determined was a fake ID. And as they were speaking, the officer saw throw up all over her clothes, on the seat and all over the inside of the door.
She told the cop she had too much to drink earlier while she was at work.
She explained she had gotten off work and went to a friend's place for about 30 minutes. The report indicates she admitted to having two glasses of wine and telling the officer that she does not drink that much.
The officer asked her again if she knew where she was and this time she said she was in Mount Pleasant and had driven there from downtown.
The concerned citizen then told police that he witnessed the driver driving erratically on Coleman Boulevard. He said the driver struck a traffic cone. She also put on her turn signal several times and never turned. At one point the car ran off the road.
She performed field sobriety tests unsatisfactorily and was arrested for DUI.
She blew a .15 percent on the Breathalyzer. An inventory of her car revealed an open bottle of liquor, a glass pipe and a flask containing rum.
The pill bottle officers found in the car was said to have belonged to her mother.
Just a little
Residents of Park West requested police presence on Bessemer Road due to people speeding day and night.
An officer running radar clocked a car going 57 mph in a 35 mph zone. It happened to be a resident of the area.
The officer pulled the driver and the report said that as he was waiting on the man to hand over his license and paperwork, the officer smelled marijuana.
The driver was asked to step out of his car and informed that the officer smelled pot. The officer told him he was going to search his vehicle, and the driver admitted to having a little bit in the glove compartment.
The officer found a joint and a dugout with green plant material in it commonly used to smoke pot.
The man admitted to using the dugout to smoke weed. He was issued a ticket for speeding, simple possession and possession of drug paraphernalia.
On street parking
Some residents in I'On had to call police because a car was completely blocking the road. According to a police report, the car was actually illegally parked right next to a legally parked car. In other words, the driver must have made his or her own parking spot.
Inside the vehicle officers spotted an open container of beer. Under the windshield was a ticket written by another officer for illegal parking. Because this parking job made the street impassable, the car was towed.
Not a snitch
An officer was patrolling a neighborhood when he came across several males running in opposite directions as his cruiser approached. Another male was looking around in the grass and did not appear to be with the group.
Police caught up with two of the males and asked them what happened and why everyone was running away. They said they did not know and refused to give officers their names or any other information.
The report said that both juveniles were "rude and uncooperative."
The boy looking around in the grass said he had not been affiliated with the group. He said he did not know the boys.
So then police made contact with a nearby resident. She said she heard the boys outside playing basketball. The two boys that officers spoke to ran to the back of her house and knocked on the door when police arrived. But she told them to leave her property. She said she only knew one of their first names.
There was no evidence of any wrongdoing at the point so officers cleared the scene.
But 30 minutes later they made a traffic stop and the driver of the car was the juvenile who had been looking in the grass earlier.
He had blood on his shorts and T-shirt and a fresh cut on his elbow. The officers asked the kid to speak with them about what happened earlier.
He said nothing and that the cuts were from skateboarding a few days ago. But officers said the cuts did not look more than an hour old.
He finally admitted that the kids the officers spoke to earlier had assaulted him and stolen his cell phone.
When asked why he didn't tell officers earlier he said he did not want to be known as a snitch. Officers tried to explain to him that he was not a snitch but rather a victim.
He was not sure if he wanted to press charges. He said the fight started because he was trying to stand up for a friend who these same boys robbed a few days earlier of a surf board and $20.
Police planned to make contact with the juveniles in question since they now knew their identities.
Power driving
Police were called to Ben Sawyer Boulevard because a car had rammed into a power pole.
The driver was nowhere to be found.
But upon a patrol of the area, the driver was located at a nearby gas station according to a police report.
The report said the driver was unsteady on his feet and his speech was slow.
When asked where he had been he said he had been at an island restaurant drinking.
He was asked to do some field sobriety tests. When asked his level of education, he said he was a college graduate.
Therefore the officer had him say the alphabet from D to R. The first time he recited it, the officer asked him how he thought he did. The man replied that he messed up. He tried it again - this time successfully.
He did not successfully complete any other tasks and was arrested for DUI. He blew a .12 percent and was charged with DUI, Leaving the Scene of an Accident and Driving Under Suspension.
Passed out
A man who was wanted for failure to pay child support had no trouble affording to drink himself to oblivion. According to a police report, he drank so much he passed out in a parking lot near the bar he had been drinking in.
Police found him, ran his name and learned he had a warrant out for his arrest in regard to the lack of child support payment. He was taken to jail.
