MOBILE, Alabama – Two organizations serving the homeless -- Mobile Rescue Mission and 15 Place -- will soon be settled in at a new location, 279 N. Washington Ave., where they can serve the homeless side by side.
Mobile Rescue Mission, a ministry of Pensacola-based Waterfront Rescue Mission, is in the process of closing its facilities at 206 State St. The mission will hold a final service at that facility at 3 p.m. Sunday to commemorate the closing of the old and celebrate the opening of the new.
15 Place, which provides an array of services for the homeless, has relocated from its site at 15 N. Joachim St.
"(The move) will allow us to double our occupancy and, in some areas, triple what we do now," said Sam Bradley, program manager at the mission.
The mission, which is faith-based, will be located across a breezeway from 15 Place. "The two (organizations) together will be more efficient in meeting the needs of the homeless population and recovery population," Bradley said.
The mission will continue to house a veterans program, as well as an in-house seven-month recovery program. The mission will add a third program, Respite Care, at the new facility.
Bradley said the beds available in the addiction recovery program will double, while the meals and overnight shelter capacities will triple. The mission has operated at the State Street location for more than 50 years. "It's going to be bittersweet," Bradley said of the site's closing.

Gretchen McCann thinks more parents need to lay down the law with their children about alcohol consumption.
She's with the Saline Coalition to Reduce Underage Drinking, which has been working for more than a year to change that parental reticence, which could come from parents' own experiences with underage or social drinking.
Reporter Marjorie Kauth-Karjala can be reached at 734-482-2961 or email@example.com.
The coalition will present a daylong conference on addiction May 10 with a keynote address by New York Times best-selling author John Bradshaw.
The event is free, but health-care professionals can earn continuing education credit for $35.
"Parents need to be stronger and more firm," said McCann, media coordinator for SCRUD. "I was the mother who sat in the kitchen until 12 (a.m.) They had to breathe in my face."
McCann has three daughters, two who have graduated and one in eighth grade.
|One of the coalition's efforts will be apparent this weekend as students gear up for prom Saturday in Saline.
She said her strict stance comes from personal experience - she admits to drinking when she was a teen. She didn't have a serious accident or get in trouble with the law, but said drinking negatively affected her life.
Now with new research indicating that alcohol causes damage to the maturing adolescent brain, there's more reason to reduce alcohol use among young people, McCann said.
What: Understanding Addictions: A Workshop for Families and the Community. When: May 10.
Where: Saline High School, 1300 Campus Parkway.
• 8:30 to 9 a.m.: Registration and exhibits open.
• 9 to 9:30 a.m.: Opening remarks by U.S. Attorney Stephen J. Murphy III.
• 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.: Keynote address by John Bradshaw, author of "Homecoming," "Creating Love," and other books.
• 12:45 to 3 p.m. Breakout sessions, featuring issues involving drugs and alcohol, family and parenting.
Register: Preregistration is requested but not required. Register online at SCRUD.org or call 810-225-2535.

One of the coalition's efforts will be apparent this weekend as students prepare for the prom Saturday in Saline.
Area merchants, hotels and limousine services are being asked to post fliers stating that they support restricting access to alcohol for minors, as well as refusing to rent rooms to minors. The coalition is also urging parents to text message their children on prom night, sending a reminder to be safe, McCann said.
Dan Dolsen, a member of SCRUD who helps coordinate the distribution of fliers, said the postings go out around homecoming and prom - two occasions when adults tend to let kids have more freedom that can sometimes result in tragedy.
Like McCann, Dolsen said that reducing alcohol use among teens is not only about preventing a possible death or injury, but is also about preventing life-changing effects that can result from alcohol.
"In my son's class (who has now graduated), we were seeing not just casual drinking, but serious drinking problems. ... Kids were being incarcerated," Dolsen said.

JOHNSTOWN - The city Department of Public Works this week is starting to pick up piles of brush off residential terraces.
Second Ward Councilman Chris Foss told the Common Council on Monday crews will pick up brush from terraces, but residents are not to push the brush onto their streets. He said DPW will continue to pick up brush in the city through the end of the month.
Residents also have the option of bringing their brush piles to the normal West Main Street drop off area, Foss said.
Elsewhere in liaison reports given to the council, Foss noted the Johnstown Public Library's 17th annual fundraiser - Johnstown Classic Mini-Golf - will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the 38 S. Market St. building. The library will have an 18-hole miniature golf course with obstacles, multi-level holes, and a 19th hole with snacks for sale.
Foss said 57 "book-themed" baskets will be up for raffle, and admission will cost $5, with proceeds benefiting library programming and services.
"I think this is real exciting," Mayor Sarah Slingerland said of the event.
In other business:
"The estimated cost of projects is significantly larger," Slingerland stated.
"By and large, they're pretty happy with the downtown area as far as governmental services," the mayor said.

SANDY – Police are asking for information from anyone who saw a delivery truck hit a pedestrian early Nov. 7 and drove off, leaving a man lying in the street with serious injuries.
The victim, 29-year-old tattoo artist Dustin L. "Dusty" Lamance, underwent surgery at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center for a broken leg and is recovering.
But police still want to find the driver and solve the mystery of the truck.
Officer Lew Sytsma, Sandy Police Department spokesman, said the victim was crossing Pioneer Boulevard at Meinig Avenue at about 1:15 a.m., when he was hit by a white box van-style truck. Sytsma said detectives studied various surveillance videos and saw a truck matching the description officers were given after the incident.
Two days later, Clackamas County sheriff's deputies found a burned-out box van-style truck. The vehicle had license plates apparently stolen from an unused Salem Statesman Journal delivery truck that had been in storage. The newspaper was unable to tell police when the plates were taken.
Sytsma said detectives recently determined that the truck had been stolen Nov. 6 in Bonner County, Idaho.
"More evidence is being analyzed, and investigators hope to learn the identity of those involved," Sytsma said.
Lamance could not be reached for comment.
Lamance's mother, Tracey Lamance, told KPTV that her son recently had opened a new business, Royal Flesh Tattoos. He had taken a break from work and was walking to 7-Eleven with a friend when he was hit. His friend called 911 and gave police a basic description of the truck.
Tracey Lamance said her son had no medical insurance. A fund has been established to help pay the bills. Donations can be made online.
Sytsma urged anyone with information about the incident, the driver, the truck or the license plates to email the Sandy Police Department or to call 503-668-5566.

Bulldogs In Movie
Taking teamwork beyond the playing field, senior tight end Caleb Smith and a number of his teammates have collaborated to produce a short film entitled "Belly of the Whale." Smith, a film studies major working on his senior project, wrote and directed the piece that premieres at the Whitney Humanities Center (53 Wall Street) at 5 p.m. on Thursday, April 7.

It is home to the mastodon, a dried elephant's foot, the candy machine from the Michigan Theater, Indian arrowheads, ancient fossils, a stuffed rattlesnake, a World War I uniform worn by the "Polar Bears," and Charles Hackley's match case.
As Muskegon County celebrates its 150th anniversary in the next few weeks, there is one organization that has been guiding the county's history and guarding artifacts for nearly half of that time.
The Lakeshore Museum Center, formerly Muskegon County Museum, was founded in 1937 by a group of local citizens who saw the need to protect and promote the area's natural and cultural heritage.
The focus remains on the collection and preservation of historic artifacts, and the education of local children, citizens and the visiting public on the geological events, early settlers and emigrants, community leaders, logging movement and industrial revolution which shaped the Muskegon we know today.
The organization has received funding through a countywide millage approved by voters since 1986. The millage is .000325 and raises 90 percent of the center's $1.5 million annual budget, said John McGarry, executive director for 19 years. It is set for renewal in 2011 and costs an average homeowner $17 per year. Museum admission is free as a thank you to residents for their support.
"The millage helped stabilize and professionalize it," he said. "Without it, we couldn't survive."
Additional funding comes from grants, donations, corporate sponsorships and memberships.
"In my opinion, it's one of the best assets this community has," he said. "Residents are getting a tremendous bang for their buck."
• Founded in 1937, governed by 24-member board of trustees.
• Recently changed name after 72 years as Muskegon County Museum.
• $1.5 million annual operating budget.
• 90 percent of revenue comes from voter-supported millage.
• 14 full- and 10 part-time employees.
• Eight buildings, including three historic sites.
For what little residents pay, the Lakeshore Museum Center is a real treasure in the community, said Bob Scolnik, a county commissioner who serves as liaison to the center's board of trustees.
The institution has grown considerably throughout the years, evolving from a single museum to multiple sites offering tours of natural and cultural history galleries, the homes of Muskegon's most famous lumber barons, a restored fire barn, and a Depression Era house. The four sites are located within walking distance from one another in downtown Muskegon.
"Very few people understand the full scope of what we do," McGarry said. "Many people are not aware we operate all those buildings and we restored those buildings. They are unaware of our archives and the material that we loan to teachers for their own classroom programs."
While the museum and historic properties provide an important educational service, they also play a vital role in the region's growing tourist economy.
"We're actively trying to use history to benefit the community," McGarry said. "All of our historic sites are bringing people to town and they're spending money in our community."
Scolnik is such a believer that he was the lead financial contributor for The Scolnik House -- A Historic House of the Depression Era. The home opened for tours in May 2007 and has attracted visitors from throughout the Midwest.
Over the years, the museum has collected more than 80,000 artifacts, and an additional 12,000 photos and postcards, plus thousands of documents.
Exhibits at the main museum and historic sites have featured hundreds of topics of local interest, and are driven by holdings in the museum's permanent collection.
In 2008, the center served 20,000 children in formal programs that met necessary Michigan Educational Assessment Program standards.
"We are a resource for teachers on history, science and biology with materials that they could never get in a classroom," McGarry said.
As the center looks to the future, museum officials and curators are embarking on two new, major projects that will continue to enhance the museum's educational and tourist offerings.
The former natural history gallery at the main museum on Clay Avenue is being totally renovated at a cost of $500,000. The new exhibit, "Michigan From the Depths of Time," will open this fall and explore the geological changes that have taken place over hundreds of millions of years.
"It's the biggest thing since 'Coming to the Lakes' (gallery) in 1998," said Melissa Horton, curator of education who has been working on the project for five years.
The first gallery will explain how Michigan used to be a shallow sea, then transition into the carboniferous period when it was a coal forest with a hot, humid climate. The final room will explore the Ice Age as visitors walk through a fissure in the ice with sound effects and all.
There will be many fossils on display from the Lakeshore Museum Center's permanent collection and other reproductions for hands-on learning opportunities, Horton said.
Meanwhile, the Michigan Heritage Trail at Hilt's Landing in northern Muskegon County is slated to open in the next two years and will explore 1,000 years of Michigan history.

Molinaro also favors Cuomo's gun-control proposals, measures that were signed into law last week.
But there's one area where the beep breaks with Cuomo: Public financing of elections.
Pointing to New York City's matching program, Cuomo has called for voluntary public financing of elections as part of an overall election reform package.
Molinaro, for years, has slammed the city's campaign-finance program, which, in an effort to level the playing field, gives candidates up to $7 for every $1 they raise, with certain limits and benchmarks attached.
"The very fact that he's looking at New York City as a success is really a laugh," Molinaro said. "New York's is a dismal failure."
Molinaro said that the city's program has not caused one person to be elected to office who wouldn't have been elected anyway.
He said it remains a constant that in overwhelmingly blue New York City, the winner of the Democratic primary is usually the winner of the general election.
"The primary winners get money for what?" said Molinaro. "To advertise?"
He has also criticized the city Campaign Finance Board (CFB) for withholding final matching payments until after months-long, post-campaign audits are completed, which leaves vendors who are owed money waiting for their cash.
And Molinaro said that the agency is "accuser, prosecutor and judge" when it comes to campaign violations.
"How can you win?" he said.
Molinaro has had his run-ins with the CFB in the past, getting fined by the agency following his 2009 re-election campaign. He contemplated dropping out of the program at one point.
And despite Molinaro's criticisms, the beep took full advantage of the matching program in his three runs for Borough Hall.
Molinaro has a simple formula to get the money out of politics: No matching funds and a $100 contribution limit per person.
He said he has not shared his thoughts on public financing with Cuomo, but would "gladly" do so if given the opportunity.
CFB spokesman Matt Sollars said the city's system "encourages everyday New Yorkers to run for office."
He said in 2009, half of the candidates in the matching funds program were running for the first time. Five candidates won races against incumbent Council members, he said.
"The matching funds help candidates compete effectively by relying on small-dollar contributions from average New Yorkers instead of large special-interest donations," Sollars said.

GO TO the NEW version of Pictures of Thailand
Phanom Rung Historical Park
This temple complex is the largest and best restored of all Khmer monuments in Thailand.
Phanom Rung is at the top of a volcanic cone and it means in Khmer: 'big hill'.
It was build between the 10th and 13th century
to symbolize the stay of Shiva on the holy mountain Kailash.
The temple complex faces east, towards the original capital of Angkor.
Phanom Rung was originally build as a Hindu monument
as we can see in the Shiva Linga and the sacred bull Nandin.
There are also many other Hindu symbols in the lintels.

The Hybrid Adventure Games took place this past Saturday, October 1st at the Mount Hood Ski Bowl. Who can think of a better way to spend a Saturday then battling a 5-mile adventure run, leaping and crawling through an obstacle course, throwing kegs, flipping tires and shooting arrows? ... well, I did everything but the archery. Teams were riled up with crazy uniforms, incredible spirit and may have already had a beer or two in their system. My two teammates, Chris and Nick, and I started at 10a; there were two start times, 10a and 1p. Here is a recap of the four events I did partake in:
Five Mile Adventure Run:
It's a good thing I like to run because this would've been hell if I were out of shape. The Mt. Hood Ski Bowl Adventure Run meandered up 2.5 miles amassing 3200 feet of elevation before turning around at the top and going back down. For the first one to one-and-a-half miles, the trail could not have been wider than a foot or two. Trying to pass people was difficult. Except for the occasional holler or cheer, the trek up was fairly quiet, which would've been unusual for 500 rowdy 20 and 30somethings at an adventure race had we not all been using every ounce of energy to put one foot in front of the other.
Nick, Chris and I talked about staying together for the whole run, but it was just too difficult. I lost Nick about half way up and I found that trying to turn my head around required too much energy. Sorry, Nick! There was certainly some shared misery trudging up the Ski Bowl. As I passed or people passed me, there was always the "nice job" grunt, about all anyone was capable of mustering. I hung behind Chris until the turnaround at the top.
Ah, the turnaround. We stopped for a few seconds to enjoy the gorgeous view and then back down we went. No water at the top though which was a bummer. Chris, with his long legs, galloped in front of me. I like running downhill, but I imagine if you had any knee or back issues, escalating down 3200 feet would be tough.
If you've ever run downhill at a good clip on a trail, looking up is a rarity. This caused a few (two, to be exact) problems for me on my descent. About half way down, our running path turned from a more major trail onto a smaller trail. Yes, there was an arrow pointing that way, but I was paying attention to my feet and following the person in front of me. No volunteer directing (I will address this later). If it had not been for some nice runner behind me yelling "you're going the wrong way!", I would've continued on said wrong path. Unfortunately, it happened to me again...
Like before, I somehow missed a sign and kept following the person in front of me. Just so I don't sound like a total A-hole, I am not at all blaming the person in front of me; it just goes to show how easy it was to miss a turn. I ran down the final twists and turns and ended back up at the start ... but there was no one there? Oops, had to run over about 50 yards adjacent to the start to where the finish was supposed to be. And await my turn for the obstacle course ...
Obstacle Course, Keg Toss, Tire Flip and Archery:
after I finished the 5k adventure run, I was lined up for the obstacle
course. I had a few seconds of rest. There had to be five competitors to tackle the obstacle course before you could take off and luckily I wasn't number five. I was the only female
in our group of five, which gave me a little competitive boost. Off we went, first navigating through
30 feet of tires (I almost fell ... twice), up and over steeples, down a water
slide, running over planks and hurling your body over walls. I totally hit the wall - not literally, but physically - during the
obstacle course and have no idea how I did because the timing company somehow
didn't get my time. I really enjoyed the obstacle course, but wish I had had a little more energy and not felt like I had to throw up the whole time.
After my teammates and I all finished the obstacle course, we joined the keg toss line. Unfortunately, many of the lines were 45 minutes or more to get to the event, but gave me time to run to the car and put on some warmer layers. Men threw a full size empty keg and women threw an empty pony keg. Volunteers mark where the keg lands, a change from the initial where the keg stops after rolling. I ended up hurling the keg 24+ feet, which was way farther than I thought myself capable. We headed over to the tire flip soon after finishing.
The line for the tire flip seemed even longer than the keg toss line. The HAG organizers started to pump some music while we were waiting which made the long wait more tolerable. The tire flip involved flipping a 200-pound tractor tire about 30 feet up and back. I finished in 55 seconds and it pooped me out! It was so much fun, but a lot more cardiovascular than I thought it was going to be. My teammate, Chris, informed me that you only lift about ¼ of the weight of the tire when you're flipping it so although a 200-pound tire sounds like a lot, it really only requires you to lift 50 pounds. He is so smart! We quickly jumped into the archery line, only having about half a hour to get to the beginning of the line. The HAG organizers set a three hour time limit to finish all the events.
We all got tired ... and hungry ... and frustrated with all the waiting. We waited about 20 minutes and bagged the line. We had not made it very far anyhow. My stomach took precedence over aiming arrows at targets.
Overall, the event was a ton of fun and I've been talking about it positively all week. The HAG organizers recently sent out a fantastic email identifying and coming up with a solution for the many problems they had with the race including more volunteers, better marked trails, a more reliable timing company, and congestion at the five events. I firmly believe major changes will be made and I look forward to 2012's HAG. HAG raised nearly $10,000 for charity which was the main reason most people were out there. My only other suggestion would to ditch the PBR for beer! Lets get a local brew out there!

UPDATE: Police ID biker in South Whidbey crash
The State Patrol identified the motorcyclist killed in a Highway 525 accident as Herbert Wood, 60, of Renton.
Wood died Saturday attempting to pass traffic northbound on Highway 525 between Maxwelton and Coles roads.
"He pulled out and attempted to pass other vehicles, saw oncoming traffic, swerved back and lost control," said State Trooper Norm Larsen.
"He was not making an illegal move because the lines there are broken, but he clearly was not aware of cars headed his way," Larsen said.
Wood's 2002 BMC chopper was totaled in the crash. The State Patrol said Wood lived in Renton but was visiting his daughter in Freeland at the time of the accident.
Wood was taken to Whidbey General Hospital in Coupeville after the crash, where he later died.

Literally had three deadlines to meet today, so just imagine my angst and self-pity. Only on the bright side, no one is suing me for $1 billion, which is more than I can say for Youtube. This strikes me as a strategic error on Viacom's part, given the promotional possibilities Youtube and all the other video-clip sharing sites could offer. But I'm just a content guy, so what do I know.
ESPN inks pact to broadcast the Rock, Paper, Scissors championship. Surely foursquare can't be far behind, yes?

UPDATE: Ohio State 37, Michigan 7, start of fourth quarter
* At this point, I'm just surprised Michigan managed to keep it scoreless for the first quarter.
UPDATE: Ohio State 34, Michigan 7, 9:12 left third quarter
* A Dan Herron 98-yard touchdown run is brought back to the 19-yardline because of an iffy holding call on Dane Sanzenbacher. It was still an 89-yard run for Herron and led to a 36-yard field goal to extend the lead to 27 points.
UPDATE: Ohio State 24, Michigan 7, halftime
* Terrelle Pryor was 15 of 21 for 196 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in the first half. He also ran eight times for 29 yards. Denard Robinson was 7 of 15 for 76 yards, and he ran 15 times for 101 yards.
UPDATE: Ohio State 24, Michigan 7, 3:06 left second quarter
* Terrelle Pryor steps up nicely inside a poor blitz and finds DeVier Posey, who then runs through a wide-open middle of the field for a 33-yard touchdown. Michigan defense now looking like the Michigan defense.
Meanwhile, Denard Robinson has left the game with a pair of dislocated fingers on his left hand. Rich Rodriguez said at halftime that Robinson's status would be assessed in the locker room.
UPDATE: Ohio State 17, Michigan 7
* Jordan Hall, one of the two upbacks with Jaamal Berry as the deep back, takes the kickoff at the 15 and returns it 85 yards for a touchdown. He is mobbed in the end zone, with his high school teammate Terrelle Pryor part of the pile. Jamie Wood gets the last block on the Michigan kicker.
UPDATE: Ohio State 10, Michigan 7, 8:02 left second quarter
* Denard Robinson was very good on that 11-play, 80-yard drive for the Wolverines, the final 1-yard touchdown run set up by a 21-yard Robinson run. Michigan is going to move the ball, and the Buckeyes need to answer now after a nice touchdown drive on their last possession.
UPDATE: Ohio State 10, Michigan 0
* That may have been Terrelle Pryor's best play in his career against Michigan so far, as he retreated back to midfield, about 20 yards behind the line of scrimmage with three Michigan defenders chasing him, escaped to his left and found Taurian Washington along the sideline for a 13-yard gain, setting up a 7-yard touchdown pass to Dane Sanzenbacher.
Michigan is still outgaining Ohio State 133 yards to 132 yards but the Buckeyes have converted their drives while the Wolverines have not.
UPDATE: Ohio State 3, Michigan 0, 14:52 left second quarter
* A 33-yard field goal by Devin Barclay ended a 10-play, 74-yard drive that took 4:01 off the clock. The Buckeyes had gone three plays and out on their first two series.
Ohio State 0, Michigan 0, end of first quarter
* Anyone see this coming?

DENVER – Dirk Nowitzki scored a season-high 35 points and Caron Butler hit a pivotal 3-pointer late in the game, helping the Dallas Mavericks hold off a Denver Nuggets squad missing center Nene 102-101 on Wednesday night.
Butler hit a 3-pointer from the corner with 2 minutes remaining to give the Mavericks a 102-99 lead.
Carmelo Anthony answered with a dunk to trim it to one and after a Mavericks shot-clock violation, the Nuggets had one last chance.
But Anthony's 20-footer with Shawn Marion in his face rimmed out and the Nuggets couldn't track down the rebound in time.
Jason Terry scored 16 of his 20 points in the second half and Butler finished with 16 points as the Mavericks won in a building that has traditionally given them trouble.
Nowitzki had 12 rebounds.
Anthony finished with 20 points and 15 rebounds, while Arron Afflalo added 17 points.
With Nene sidelined by a strained left groin, rookie and former University of Massachusetts player Gary Forbes stepped into the starting lineup. Forbes, who spent last season playing in the Philippines and Israel, finished with 12 points, all coming in the first half.
Forbes took his turn attempting to guard Nowitzki. It's a job that's usually reserved for Kenyon Martin, who's out until around the first of the year after undergoing offseason knee surgery.
Anthony, Shelden Williams and Al Harrington also spent time on Nowitzki.
But he burned anyone the Nuggets assigned.
Terry hit consecutive 3-pointers early in the third quarter, helping the Mavs to their first lead since early in the game. Paced by Terry, Dallas built a lead that stretched to as many as 11 points. The Nuggets went on a run late in the third to pull to within 84-80.
It was back and forth from there.
In the first half, it was Denver who saw a double-digit lead crumble. The Nuggets led by as many as 10 points in the second quarter, but the Mavs closed within 52-50 on a shot by Nowitzki just before the halftime buzzer.
The All-Star averaged 21.3 points against Denver last season and nearly had that at halftime, scoring 20 points, most coming on mid-range jumpers and running hooks inside the lane.
Nene was scratched just before tip after being bothered by a groin injury that surfaced near the end of a win over Houston on Saturday. He's listed as day-to-day.
The team was already banged-up in the front court with Martin and Chris "Birdman" Andersen (knee) sidelined.
Andersen has been running fastbreak drills and the team remains hopeful he will return before Dec. 1.
Notes: The Nuggets and Mavericks will meet again in three days in Dallas. ... Harrington was called for a technical foul in the fourth quarter for arguing a call. ... Harrington, who finished with 16 points, nearly signed with the Mavs in the offseason, before selecting Denver. ... Nuggets G Chauncey Billups had 16 points.
