GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay men's basketball team swept its trip to Cleveland State and Youngstown State over the weekend, and sophomore Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) and freshman Jordan Fouse (Racine, Wis.) played an important part in the victories. On Monday, Sykes was named the Horizon League co-Player of the Week and Fouse was tabbed Newcomer of the Week.
The award was the third of the season for Sykes, who averaged 23.5 points per game on the trip, and the second time Fouse has earned the weekly award for top newcomer. Fouse averaged 8.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.5 steals on the week.
The way he played after halftime, Sykes probably could have sat out the first halves and still won the weekly award for the fourth time in his career. Sykes scored 19 points after halftime in both of his team's wins, leading a furious rally in a 66-59 win against Cleveland State on Friday before helping the Phoenix pull away from Youngstown State 71-54 on Sunday afternoon.
Scoring 23 and 24 points in the two contests, the 5-foot-11 sophomore made 13-of-23 shots from the field and 17-of-19 free throws. In the two second halves, he made 10-of-13 shots from the field and 15-of-16 free throws.
While the weekend magnified it, the second-half outbursts were nothing new for Sykes. Taking out a game at Loyola, when he logged just two second-half minutes due to injury, Sykes has averaged 12.6 points after halftime of the past eight games. For the season, Sykes is averaging 9.3 points per game after halftime and has reached double figures 10 times.
Sykes also won the league's weekly award on Nov. 13 and Dec. 24 this season. The Chicago native is fourth in the Horizon League in scoring at 15.5 points per game. He is shooting 44.8 percent (134-299) from the field, 46 percent from long range (23-50) and 80.9 percent (127-157) from the free throw line.
A model of consistency despite being a true freshman, Fouse had another week in which he stuffed the stat sheets. The 6-foot-7 wing made 4-of-7 shots from the field and 9-of-11 free throws in the two games. At Youngstown State, Fouse posted his third double-double of the season with 10 points and 10 rebounds.
Fouse, one of three Phoenix players to start each game this season, is averaging 6.6 points and 7.6 rebounds per game. He ranks second in the Horizon League in rebounds per game and is first in offensive rebounding (2.4), third in steals (1.7) and fourth in blocked shots (1.5).
In league play, Fouse leads the conference in rebounding (8.4) and offensive rebounding (2.6) and is third in steals (2.0) and fourth in blocks (1.9). He has helped the Phoenix lead the conference in rebounding margin, scoring defense, field goal percentage defense and blocked shots in Horizon League play.
With three regular season games remaining, Fouse is four rebounds and six steals from breaking Green Bay's single-season freshman records in the categories. His 39 blocks are the second-most by a Phoenix freshman, behind only Alec Brown's 67 in 2010-11.

Possible hospital closing sends shockwaves through Kingston
KINGSTON, N.Y. — HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley, the operator of Kingston and Benedictine hospitals, said on Friday that financial strains have resulted in the company "actively pursuing a single-campus alternative" — an indication that one of the two hospitals, less than a mile apart in Midtown Kingston, could close.
In a press release issued early Friday afternoon, HealthAlliance said it is "evaluating options necessary to reduce expenses and improve efficiency, including actively pursuing a single-campus alternative in Kingston."
David Lundquist, the president and chief executive officer of HealthAlliance, said in a phone interview later Friday that closing one of the hospitals is not yet a certainty and that the company has not decided which one to shutter, or when, if it becomes necessary.
He also said he did not know how many of HeatlhAlliance's 2,400 employees would be affected by a shutdown.
Lundquist said the company will have a better idea several weeks from now about what course of action it will take.
"If you are in business in today's world you have to redefine and restructure to meet the demands of the new economy," Lundquist said, adding that HealthAlliance wants to do what is necessary "to be sure that we provide the best services."
He would not speak specifically about HealthAlliance finances but said the company has been operating at a loss for the "past couple of years" and that dwindling reimbursements from the government are compounding the problem.
Lundquist said the current evaluation of HealthAlliance's operations is being done in "the spirit of what brought the alliance together in the first place, and that was to be sure that this community had healthcare into the future with generations to come."
Kingston Mayor Shayne Gallo said the closing of either hospital "would have a devastating impact" on the city.
"I am hopeful that the hospital administration can avoid closing either campus, as they are major employers and provide service to the community," Gallo said. Continued...
Debbie Brown, the Kingston Common Council's minority leader, said she was "stunned" by the news.
"Most disturbing is the possibility of layoffs in all departments," said Brown, R-Ward 9. "This region cannot face any more unemployment. Both hospitals are major employers in the city of Kingston and Ulster County."
State Sen. John Bonacic tried to put a positive spin on the possible closing of a hospital.
"This obviously could have substantial impacts on the community, or it could result in even better services," Bonacic, R-Mount Hope, said in a prepared statement. "In Orange County, we just saw two hospitals close and merge physically into one facility. The consensus that I have heard in that case is that there is better patient care with more modern technology.
"While this (the Kingston situation) is alarming to many people ... there may be opportunity here for better healthcare depending on how this moves forward."
Kingston Hospital, founded in 1894, is at Broadway and Foxhall Avenue. Benedictine, founded in 1901, is on nearby Mary's Avenue. Each has about 150 patient beds.
The two hospitals have operated under a single parent company but maintained separate campuses since 2008, the result of a state mandate issued in late 2006. The mandate included an ultimatum that one of the hospitals could be shut down if an affiliation was not forged.
After the affiliation was completed, services that were offered at both hospitals were consolidated into one or the other. For instance, the city's only emergency room and maternity ward are now at Kingston Hospital.
Both buildings also underwent significant renovations after the affiliation was complete.
One sticking point in the affiliation was reproductive health services, such as abortion, because Benedictine is a Catholic hospital and does not perform such procedures. The compromise was the creation of the Foxhall Ambulatory Surgery Center, behind Kingston Hospital, where such procedures as abortions, tubal ligations and vasectomies are offered. Continued...
Mark Genovese, a spokesman for the New York State Nurses' Association, said both hospitals provide "vital" care to the community.
Genovese said closing either facility would be a loss of "access."
HealthAlliance also operates Margaretville Memorial Hospital in Delaware County, as well as the Mountainside Residential Care Center, a skilled nursing facility in Margaretville, and Woodland Pond at New Paltz, a continuing-care retirement community.
Kingston and Benedictine are among three hospitals in Ulster County. The other is Ellenville Regional Hospital.

The guilty plea of Steve Whalen on 5 counts of campaign finance violations proves he funneled $7500 to Councilperson Quirk and exceeded spending limits.
This should be viewed in context with promises made by the Councilperson during his 2010 campaign, a review of the Office of the Special Prosecutor's statements of facts, the timeline of events, and his land use decisions affecting Whalen since being elected?
Only then can voters decide whether or not to believe the Councilperson's claim that he was unaware, and not a willing participant, of the developer's crime?
During the 2010 campaign, the Councilperson assured many, including his own treasurer, he wouldn't take money from Steve Whalen. A Quirk supporter wrote the following regarding the Republican candidate's return of a Whalen donation. "Apparently, now it is politically expedient to return those contributions...The timing is revealing. Call it hypocrisy, call it lying, call it what you will. It is dishonest." Another wrote, "The Board of Elections site indicates that candidate Quirk received no contributions from Mr. Whalen."
In late October 2010, I discovered Whalen Properties conducted several polls regarding candidate preference and the Promenade during the primary and general election. Results were shared with Quirk and another candidate preventing the required filing of a gift in kind donation. I
went to the State's Office of the Special Prosecutor who decided the charges merited investigation. It unearthed, a Quirk campaign volunteer who stated the candidate "wanted to keep his distance," from the developer. Although the Prosecutor concluded that the polling did happen, the developer had exploited legal loopholes preventing formal charges from being filed. It would appear both men were conducting themselves in ways to prevent the public from knowing the full extent of their relationship. The released Statements of Facts (look under the Prosecutor's Press Release Page) support this conclusion. It states Whalen and Quirk emailed back and forth regarding Whalen's ability to raise money for the councilperson.
On September 19, 2011, the Councilperson submitted the PUD resolution for Whalen Properties' Southwest Physicians Pavilion. This PUD resolution was submitted approximately three weeks after Whalen funneled money to Quirk. The resolution states the site is a Transit Oriented Development (TOD). According to Smart Growth groups like Reconnecting America TOD's are defined as mixed use developments that seek to limit the reliance on the automobile by proximity to a mass transit and tied into a tightly knit grid of streets to make it walkable/bikeable. Given that FACT that the site sits on the beltway and is 6 blocks away from a one line only bus stop, it's a fraudulent statement to suggest the project is a TOD. The PUD's own development plan actually states there is "limited bus service."
Quirk has also up-zoned, at Mr. Whalen's request, a parcel of land the developer didn't own. He has remained silent about the release of MEDCO's Spring Grove report which outlines a mixed-use development almost identical to Whalen's proposed Promenade and suggests the sale of about 20 acres to an "undisclosed developer." The MEDCO report and is also referenced on page three of the Statement of facts.
After discovering oddities in Quirk's campaign finance records, I again turned to the State's Special Prosecutor on February the 21st, 2012. These accusations first became public with the release of Catonsville Promenot's first video published on YouTube June 26, 2012. The Councilperson has had months to look into the charges and to review the funds delivered to him by Whalen.
If he had, he would have found three $2500 donations from individuals given to him by people who didn't live in his district, who had no history of political giving, with one working for Whalen Properties. I'm reminded of the aforementioned Quirk supporter whose statement bears repeating, "Apparently, now it's politically expedient to return those contributions... The timing is revealing. Call it hypocrisy, call it lying, call it what you will. It is dishonest."
Campaign finance laws attempt to prevent individuals and corporations from manipulating our political system. The campaign finance reports they provide help informed voters to sift through statements and voting records to determine if politicians are lying or telling the truth. We are now faced with the following question: Are the presented facts purely coincidental or are they evidence of a broken and corrupt system? One thing is plainly evident. We can argue about these laws' adequacy, but not about their necessity.
In conclusion, some conservative bloggers have been stating things like, "See we told you, the Democrats are corrupt." On this, let me be clear. Democrats are the ones who discovered this crime and filed these complaints against Councilperson Quirk and Steve Whalen.
Many Democrats refuse to be cogs in the machine and are disappointed with the status quo involved in local politics. My wife and I are Democrats, in part, because we believe in protecting the vulnerable and disenfranchised. We believe in sticking up for the little guy. That's exactly what we've done and what we'll continue to do. I'm proud to be part of a family who hasn't been afraid to speak truth to power and whose determination has helped bring some degree of justice to the people of our district. I'd also like to express deep gratitude to the Office of the Special Prosecutor for their integrity and hard work regarding this case.

I am astounded that Mr. Whalen is attempting to pass the buck for his crimes on opponents of his and using that as an excuse as to why he did what he did. If anything, the well thought out objections to Mr. Whalen's projects by respectful community activists provide the "motive" for Mr. Whalen's criminal act and makes them all the worst. What have people said in the past? Here are a sampling of letter's to the editor that have been written:

Paul I strongly supported the GOP ticket in 2010. I met your wife on the campaign trail many times. I heard her speak at several events. She is very impressive. It is too bad Democrats choose Quirk over her.. Even though we are on opposite sides of the isle I appreciate her/your views.
Surely your wife and the 2010 GOP team pointed out the well known concerns about Whalen and his buddies and the people still put Kamenetz, deBoy, Malone, Kasemayer, Quirk and other democrats in office.
This Wahlen debacle is just the tip of the iceberg and has nothing to do with being a republican or democrat. It has to do with basic morality and doing the right things, no matter if anyone is looking or not.
All Maryland taxpayers should thank you for exposing this criminal behavior. It's too bad that Whalen didn't do some jail time and then be excluded from doing business with Maryland jurisdictions for 3 years. That would teach him and his buddies a lesson "about screwing up". He is not sorry that he screwed up, he is sorry that you spilled the beans on him and others and got caught.
Really it is pathetic when you see what access a paltry sum of $7,500 buy. The prosecutor did a great job and should be commended. If most people did what Whalen did, they'd be in the slammer, then not be allowed to continue with this sort of behavior because they should not be allowed to do business as usual for at least three years.
Kudos to you and your wife Paul.
4:22 pm on Friday, January 4, 2013
jack, if it was JUST $7500 you would be correct. Add up the 3+ decades of these "contributions" and the paid for pols know that that cow has plenty of milk left.
If Whalen showed no compunction against breaking civil law as he admitted, does anyone believe this is his first foray into corruption and campaign fraud?
Paul Dongarra
6:25 pm on Friday, January 4, 2013
Jack, Thank you for your kind words. I must say that I listened all candidates who ran in 2010 with a very sharp eye to detail at what they were saying. Nothing any Republican candidate said came anywhere near the thoughtful critique offered by my wife regarding land use as an issue in Baltimore County. The difference was that she was alienated from her own party by speaking out against business as usual. It's called integrity. Perhaps if more Republicans stopped asking her about her stance on abortion, illegal immigration, etc etc and considered registering as a democrat to vote for her, we would not be in the state we are in today. I wish that more people did what this writer did when he shared his thoughts to the Times: http://archives.explorebaltimorecounty.com/news/108011/candidates-corner/
4:19 pm on Friday, January 4, 2013
Did Mr Dongerra ever file a PIA to Kasemeyer for his discussions with Whalen about securing his 30 acres of State land at the Grove?
Whalen wants State property for his Promenade. The State wanted property for a new courthouse in that district. The county could have worked with the state to secure some of the SG property for their courthouse.
Guess who sold the land to the county for the new courthouse? Whalen!
Whalen profits form the sale of land to the county for a courthouse, then he will profit from the STATE land that could have gone to the county for a new courthouse.
Whalen has a WIN WIN and the taxpayers have a LOSE LOSE.
6:06 pm on Friday, January 4, 2013
Sanchez, Although Mr. Dongarra has performed an incredible investigating feat he is just one man. I would suggest that if you have concerns you might want to file your own PIA. Here is the site that can point you in the right direction. http://tinyurl.com/ak3mmrb

You don't have a clue as to what you're posting. Please take some time and find out the entire story about the courthouse sale. You take a cheap uninformed shot. Why not ask the Chief Judge about why he chose the Whalen property instead of posting ignorant statements.
5:11 pm on Friday, January 4, 2013
LOL Does anybody really think BGEhrlich had no knowledge of his Robobcalls on election night?
6:10 pm on Friday, January 4, 2013
I agree with you Steve. We must hold all elected officials, regardless of party affiliation, to the same standard. It is unfortunate that Whalen has only received a slap on the wrist and his penalty essentially becomes part of doing business.
jack friese
5:33 pm on Friday, January 4, 2013
Sanchez, you hit the nail right on the head. However, you saw how much time, money, effort and digging to get this conviction of Whalen. Paying $58,000 is chump change for this guy. The judge should have thrown his ass in jail and then prohibit him and any of his paper companies from doing business within Maryland for three years.
Then put DeBoy, Malone, Kasemeyer, Jim Smith, Kamenetz and Quirk under oath and grill them and see just how clean (ha ha) or dirty they are.If they perjure themselves they should go to jail.
The public deserves no less.
10:21 am on Saturday, January 5, 2013
Dongarra - those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. The group that supported you wants you to be quiet now. Yes - the Whalen thing is the tip of the iceberg. The group that supported Rebecca and Paul makes Whalen look like an angel. There are over a dozen people in Baltimore County that are waiting with loads of documents. Mr. Self Righteous Paul thinks that know one knows how he and his wife have operated. He'll find out different in time. Dongarra is also NOT a Democrat. When his wife got crushed in the primary he openly supported a right wing nut (so right wing matter of fact the entire business community rejected him openly). Quirk is known as one of the most liberal members of the council.

Lets see Mr. Paul Hategarra stand up to the heat when it starts, like running a catering business from your home Paul? It's a residential neighborhood do you think that's appropriate for your Catonsville neighbors? Hmmmm? Maybe someone needs to check on your zoning to see if that's allowed. And btw how many of your suppliers gave campaign money to your wife in her failed attempt to win an election? If she had won were there any FAVORS to be given to those suppliers such as perhaps exclusive rights to sell you their food supplies? Were there any discounts given to you by your suppliers that in turn you used for her campaign??? Questions need to be answered by you. Lets open the books Mr. Transparency. Put out there on your website for all to see. You see Mrt. Hategarra what goes around comes around.

My home address is my home office. I rent a commercial kitchen in Columbia where I am regularly inspected by the health department. The only time food comes home is when we have left overs that are donated the next day to our area homeless shelter or to share with my neighbors. If that is a problem, I will just have to start throwing it away. I also have a garden and use some of the veggies I grow. Feel free to stop by next summer, I'd be glad to give you some. It's true some of our vendors donated. We are a good clients, easy to work with, and we pay our bills on time. I don't see anything wrong with that, just like there was nothing wrong with the Jolles of Jolles Insurance making a donation to then candidate Quirk. I am sure his financial planning business refers business to them. Gift in kind donations from vendors and/or friends for copy writing, photography, and graphic design were all reported in Rebecca's reports. Perhaps when you bring up vendors and glass houses you should realize that Councilperson's finance records show him taking cash from companies like: Spindler Refuse, Ruppert Sanitation, Hartey's Trash Management, and Parks Refuse, Pollard Towing, two individuals associated with ACS (the Speed Camera Company), and one from the President of the firm that built Hillcrest Elem's addition. Do any of these people do business with the County? Enough of this foolishness, however, I have to vacuum my house...lol!

How many people posting about this live in College Hills or Hidden Bluffs, really bad projects right? Was the Catonsville Professional Center, Rolling Crossroads or how about Charlestown a bad idea. OMG they took an old seminary with rolling fields and woods and turned into the best retirement community in the area that thousands have enjoyed. My oh my these dam developers. Dongarra and their ilk are not FOR Catonsville they're for themselves. Catonsville would be a much better place without them. And to all of the Hategarras out there, don't shop at the Giant at Wilkens that property used to be ball fields. So don't compromise your principles. You need to go to the A&P in downtown C'ville and get your prescriptions filled at Moss Drugs and when you want to see a movie make sure it's only the Alpha Theatre. Mr. Hategarra do you even know anything about Catonsville?
Paul Dongarra
7:27 pm on Saturday, January 5, 2013
My wife and I are not anti-development, we are opposed to poorly planned unnecessary development driven by greed that causes our current commercial corridors to erode. If Whalen Properties had proposed to redevelop Wilkins Plaza or Security Square Mall, I would applaud him. There are many great and exciting adaptive use and Transit Oriented Development (TOD) projects around the state: Union Mill, http://theunionmill.com/about/ The Oella Mill http://www.oellamill.com/,Camden Yards, and what is happening in North Bethesda, http://www.montgomeryplanning.org/community/whiteflint/ . The PUD on Kenwood Ave claims to be a TOD. It is not. Why are we upzoning land and issuing PUD's on land that hasn't been built on when there are many existing brown fields in need of redevelopment? Could it be that developers make more money when these parcels are purchased and then upzoned and/or a PUD issued? Because when this happens, it's almost like spinning straw into gold. Could it be that developers and their attorney's give and/or raise lots of money for our council to continue this alchemy of land use decisions?

" The only time food comes home is when we have left overs that are donated the next day to our area homeless shelter or to share with my neighbors... I also have a garden and use some of the veggies I grow."
So the great zoning expert has a commercial business and commercial garden (you are selling product grown on your property) in a residential neighborhood, I thought you were the zoning guru. Additionally you are looked at as a kind and generous person for giving away food that other people paid for. You are a wonderful human being.
Perhaps it's time for you to review the zoning laws vs ranting against law abiding citizens.

Lack LEGO table
Materials: Lack side table, trofast box and lid
Description: My godson is 5 and has an insane amount of Legos with Santa bringing a load more in a couple of weeks. To help with his mom's sanity I've put together a cheap simple lego table for him to keep his current projects in one place.
I cut a hole big enough to sink the trofast box into the table and then glued two 10" x 10" green base plates to the top. Its important to remember to use bricks to make sure the plates are aligned before you glue them or the bricks won't fit along the join
Total cost of project less than £20, similar lego table on amazon £113.

Hebe is a KDE 4.4 front-end GUI for the Hercules z/Arch emulator. It was designed to have a modern look, like the VirtualBox interface; there are no dials. Hebe provides two consoles, one for Hercules and one for the SCP (system control program), also known as the operating system. Input is automatically routed to the correct receiver. You can start as many instances of Hercules as your hardware can support. Hebe works best with Hercules 3.0.7.
KDE-Services extends the features of Dolphin's right click menu in the KDE graphical environment. It allows you to play and convert between several video formats, extract audio from movies and convert them to MP3, convert audio to MP3, securely send a file or directory to Mailx as an email, send files to Thunderbird as attachments, burn and checksum ISO images, execute scripts and applications, get low-level information on video files, build ISO images from folders, replace text, search, SSH, use Midnight Commander, use system, network, and backup/restore tools, use Samba, extract subtitles from MKV video, multiplex subtitles into MPEG-2 videos, and work with YouTube, DVDs, multimedia, GPG. You can add a timestamp prefix to a filename or directory name. A paranoid shredder, an HTTP publisher, graphic tools, and package tools are included.
KMidimon monitors events coming from a MIDI external port or application via the ALSA sequencer, or Standard MIDI Files. It is especially useful if you want to debug MIDI software or your MIDI setup. It features a nice graphical user interface, customizable event filters and sequencer parameters, support for all MIDI messages and some ALSA messages, MIDI playback, and saving the recorded event list to a text file or SMF.
KShutDown is an advanced shutdown utility for KDE. It has four main commands: Turn Off Computer (logout and halt the system), Restart Computer (logout and reboot the system), Lock Session (lock the screen using a screen saver), and End Current Session (end the session and logout the user). It features time and delay options, command line support, panel applet, and sounds.
Krcstat is a graphic replacement for the Gentoo rc-status and rc-update command line utilities. It can be used to check that all your services are active and generate an alert if they are not. You may easily create new runlevels and drag services from the Services pane into them. (Alternate runlevels may be specified by using the softlevel parameter on the kernel command line in Grub or Lilo.) Krcstat is a bit conservative and will not let you delete the boot or default runlevels or certain boot services deemed critical. To use its configuration features it must run as root; if you only want to monitor services, it can be run as a normal user.
Minirok is a small music player for the K Desktop Environment. As its name hints, it's modelled after Amarok, but with a reduced set of features. In particular, it is designed to cover all the needs and wishes of the author, leaving everything else out. The look and feel is almost identical to Amarok's, though. The main interface is a tree view of the filesystem, with a playlist that can only be populated via drag and drop. There is no collection built from tags, so it's targeted at people whose collections are already structured in a tree at the filesystem level. Searches can be performed both in the tree view and the playlist.
SerLooK is a KDE application for inspecting data going over serial lines. It can work as a binary terminal that sends and receives data through a defined port (Point to Point mode) and displays them on separate views. Each view can be configured to display data in hexadecimal, decimal, octal, binary, and raw ASCII. It is also possible to perform I/O through terminal emulation views and define a secondary port and monitor the traffic between two external hosts using a "Y" cable (Snooper mode).

Partner Kevin O'Neill Receives Compass Award from Delta Gamma Fraternity
Patton Boggs partner Kevin O'Neill was recognized for his extensive pro bono efforts by the Delta Gamma Fraternity, which honored him with the international fraternity's first-ever awarded Compass Award on April 11, 2011. Mr. O'Neill was selected for his "extraordinary" leadership and service as a founder, first president and current executive director of the Fraternity and Sorority Political Action Committee (FSPAC). In 2005, Mr. O'Neill helped found the PAC which focuses primarily on issues of higher education and supports legislators in the United States Congress who help "preserve and improve the fraternal experience." Mr. O'Neill's efforts to create the organization began in 2001 and were made entirely on a pro bono basis. Delta Gamma Fraternity President Beth Bell Searcy presented Mr. O'Neill with the award and noted his "remarkable" influence and impact. FSPAC Board of Director Vicki Vannoy Nixon, who presented the award in conjunction with Ms. Bell Searcy, praised Mr. O'Neill for his vision and commitment, calling both "exceptional."

RED SPRINGS — A 14-year-old is among two teenagers charged with setting fire to a mobile home in Red Springs that was occupied by four people.
Sheriff's Lt. Brian Duckworth said no one was injured in the fire that was set by Clayton Elijah Cummings, 17, of Lovette Road, and the juvenile, who are each charged with first-degree arson and conspiracy to commit arson. The 14-year-old's name was not released because of his age, but Duckworth said he and Cummings are related.
The fire happened at about 1:30 a.m. on Dec. 4 at a mobile home on the 200 block Childrens Road in Red Springs after the 14-year-old and a 15-year-old who lived at the home argued, Duckworth said. The two families had an ongoing dispute, according to Duckworth.
Duckworth said the 14-year-old and Cummings went to a local store and bought some gasoline and then set the home on fire. Melissa Manor, Ollyn Sanderson Jones, Tyson Maynor and the 15-year-old escaped the home without injury, according to Duckworth.
Damage to the mobile home was estimated at $4,000.
Cummings, who was also charged with first-degree trespassing, is being held at the Robeson County jail on $16,000 bond.
The 14-year-old was released to a family member.

Shooters are absolutely huge right now, but are they as huge as they used to be? Of course, we cant go a year without seeing a Call of Duty release, and then theres Medal of Honor, Battlefield, Spec Ops: The Line, Splinter Cell, Far Cry, Crysis, Gears of War, and about a million other shooters either recently released or about to launch. Its safe to say that shooters are the most popular thing in the gaming industry right now. But, judging by past trends, it doesnt look as though this will be the case for long.Every year, E3 shows us what the face of the industry looks like, and for the past several years that face had SHOOTERS written across its forehead.
Last year, every company under the sun had a shooter they wanted to push. Alongside the mainstays like COD and Battlefield, we also saw things like Inversion, a shooter based on gravity mechanics, and Binary Domain, a shooter based on robots and team synergy. Go back even further and youd see the same sort of atmosphere for the last three or so years, if not longer. However, this year was a little different.There were still loads of throwaway shooters, but they were actually a lot harder to find. And even the big boys have been falling out of the public spotlight as of late.
Modern Warfare 3 did not have as strong a reception as Black Ops, and Black Ops 2, while causing quite a bit of buzz, did not draw crowds nearly as big as Modern Warfare 3′s crowds at last years E3. Then, during the later days of the SNES and early days of the PlayStation, the Japanese RPG was king. We saw Final Fantasy greats like Final Fantasy IV, VI, and VII release, of course. Then other franchises like Breath of Fire followed until eventually even American companies were making J-style RPGs like Legend of Dragoon. Come on, join us!
We offer live chat services, instant email wow power leveling support. When you place your order, you will be put in direct contact with the manager responsible for your order through our online system. Besides, you can make communication with us to talk about how to bring you the best service. It is our pleasure to share itWith a blood-curdling cry Fandral and Valstann pressed straight into the heart of the oncoming swarm; the two sides clashed and melted into each other as the newly arrived forces crushed in on both flanks.
For years, your faithful companion pets have followed you on countless adventures. Theyve provided you with comfort, company, sometimes even with entertainment and hours of fun. Maybe you only have a handful of pets you really love, or maybe you have made it your quest to capture as many of them as you can. The fact remains, heroes love their little companions and in Mists of Pandaria, they will take the spotlight in a brand-new way.You can teach your pets unique abilities and attacks, and they will use these abilities when battling other pets. As they fight and win battles, your pets will gain experience and level up, which makes them tougher and may even unlock new abilities.

Monster has earned a rep for some of CES's flashiest press events, but this year, the company outdid itself with an event that was so heavy on celebs, strutting models, and co-marketing announcements that the products themselves seemed lost in all the glamor. Few details or prices were provided; fortunately, I was able to get more info from the online press kit.
Most of the event focused on headphones, but the company also debuted a line of active HDMI cables, which include internal amplification for better performance at long distances. Head Monster Noel Lee also mentioned the new Katana, a $699 one-piece audio system that combines Bluetooth with wireless multiroom streaming using Monster's Streamcast transmitter/receiver systems.
Here's a photo essay showing most of the new headphone introductions, along with the celebs that touted them. (Skip to the end for more on the Katana.)
It's that time again, and S+V's staff and contributors are on site in Las Vegas to bring you the latest and greatest in entertainment tech, from the country's biggest consumer electronics show.

Inflatable bouncers, jump houses, and obstacle courses, are often thought of as recreational devices for children's parties, school field days, church carnivals and company parties, though they provide excellent opportunities for healthy activity too. The inflatable play structures kids love provide exercise for a healthy heart, increase lung capacity, and muscle building through activities such as sustained cardio-vascular fitness, endurance, enhancement of proprioception, development of physical education skills and psychomotor skills of climbing up, over, under, around and through objects in a safe environment as well as negotiating correct sliding positions as the body moves through space. There is also a strong social skills component as children cooperate in a designated jump space or traverse through an obstacle course together. So let them jump, bounce, climb through an obstacle course and slide down an inflatable slide knowing it isn't just fun and games! They are having fun, staying healthy and learning new skills! (Sources; Henderson, 2013; Quinn, 2008; 2009; 2012; Ford-Martin; About.com Sports Medicine; 2008-2012; Wikipedia, 2012; 2013)
Complete school, camp, company and private backyard party rentals of inflatable water slides, moonwalks, bounce houses, obstacle courses, 3in1 4in1 and 5in1 combination units (combos) jump houses and inflatable themes with official Disney, WB, Universal Studios, DC comic super heroes, classic kid themes, tables, chairs, including preschool tables and chairs available for full day rental. Traditional Carnival Games, popcorn cotton candy snow cone machines add to party fun. Spin Art and Pucker Powder crafts give the children more at your party! Be sure to ask about our Air Castles And Slides specials going on right now! Packages always available.
Once provided the deposit is non-refundable for any reason, but may be applied to payment of future rentals.

Re: Help with a Brookfield Buzz SawOk i have the drawings done, took bout half a day but hope it will make it easy for the next person. Would like for Andy to go over the measurements one more time to make sure all is right. Pics used are from TM

Re: Help with a Brookfield Buzz SawClint,
That looks super. The only thing I see missing is the 12 1/2" bed depth dimension. Rick brings up some great points and I'll have to give adding a different handle and a bed extension some thought. The nice part is, when we use saws like this, we always do it at the neighbors. He has an old ear corn elevator that the cutoff drops into and then it is elevated into his dump truck. Once full we dump it near the wood chute and spend a couple days watching and coaching the kids on how to get it in the house and stacked up for winter. '41 A, '49 Cub, '58 LoBoy,'61 LoBoy, way to many attachments, '22 Centerdoor Sedan, '24 Ford T Roadster, '25 Ford TT, '24 C Cab, '13 Touring, '24 Model T Snowmobile, '26 Touring
Re: Help with a Brookfield Buzz Sawthanks for pointing that out Andy. All is fixed.
Have A Nice Day!
Re: Help with a Brookfield Buzz SawHere are the dimensions for the fender supports.
I don't believe in taking the bull by the horns. I took a goat by the horns once and that was enough excitement for me.

I have a harp that I can't play yet. I've been unable to find a teacher anywhere near me and so it's looking like I'll have to teach myself. I'm fairly musical and tend to pick up instruments quickly, so that isn't a problem in itself, but I could really do with some good resources to help me - perhaps something online? Or a 'teach yourself harp' book?
Can anybody help me with this please?

More Quilts
But over the last week I've been spending my evenings hand quilting with rows of running stitch, enjoying the gentle rhythm of hand stitching.

Aaah! Quilting, I call that heaven, as you said it's the rhythm of the hand stitching. It looks as though it will be lovely and warm. You could use it as a lap quilt?
- 4 May 2010 20:46
- Kayla coo said...
Your quilt is beautiful Gina.
Don't throw your laura ashley patch work out because I think its lovely!!
M x - 4 May 2010 20:57

Ooh another quilt addict .... grand job and please don't thrown your old LA .... try Ebay there is bound to be someone out there who will appreciate it and complete it. x

- Jan said...
I think that is so nice and the hand quiting makes it extra special ,in these days of complicated machine quilting ,your cake looks good too ...love Jan xx
- 4 May 2010 21:40
- dottycookie said...
Your first quilt, with corners like that?! Blimey!
- 4 May 2010 21:53
- Fiona said...
Gosh I made a very similar Laura Ashley one way back when. It has long since worn out and been scrapped. But that one of yours really reminded me. My boyfriend at the time made me a huge frame to do all the hand quilting.
- 4 May 2010 22:32
- Vicki W said...
Your shirting quilt looks like the perfect summer nap quilt!
- 4 May 2010 22:40
- LOVE STITCHING RED said...
A truly gorgeous post. You are so making me feel good about the black sacks full of unfinished project in my loft. I find it all rather daunting when I come across so many things half finished. Maybe 2011 will be "my year" to get round to them!
- 4 May 2010 22:42
- LOVE STITCHING RED said...
ps. I think a slice of that cake would just fit in a jiffy bag ...
- 4 May 2010 22:43
- Mavis said...
Just a thimbleful...
A woman after my own heart - lots of UFO's ! The first quilt I ever made is the one which I pull over me on the sofa when I'm not feeling too good - it's a wonderful comfort! I MUST finish that wretched pineapple quilt..... - 4 May 2010 22:46
- wonderwoman said...
your quilt looks lovely - mine are never perfectly straight no matter how hard i try!!! I find hand quilting very relaxing, until my fingers get sore! You have some lovely fabrics! I have that book too, very inspiring, just don't know where to start first!!!xx
- 4 May 2010 22:47
- Thimbleanna said...
Holy Cow Gina -- nothing like starting at the top with those hexagons! I love your new finished quilt. You could use it for lots of things -- on a bed, for a throw on chilly winter nights, for picnics, in the car...the list is endless! I can't wait to see more of your quilts!
- 4 May 2010 22:58
- karen said...
beautiful quilt Gina and I love your fabric bundle too. I was looking at similar bundles in Liberty last week and was so tempted but I didn't ! Now I wish I had.
- 4 May 2010 23:31
- Diane Kelsey said...
Well done, you are ceratinly getting the bug! Lovely fabric on your finished quilt. As for all the other fabric that is just lovely to look at until you have time to use it. I think we all have a hexagon UFO somewhere, but eep it for a talk on how you got started in patchwork!
- 5 May 2010 07:57
- Stephanie Pettengell said...
Well I too just love the quilt, are you sure you are not a secret quilter and patchworker. Recycled shirting quilts are just the best. You have made a wonderful quilt with beautiful stitching and the neatest mitred corners that you should be proud of. But where is the photo of the whole quilt? I would love to see it all and with all that extra fabric I am sure there will be another on along soon.
- 5 May 2010 08:04
- Chrissie said...
Aaaaah ...... Laura Ashley hexagons ....... I've come over all nostalgic! I do do do love your new version though. And, pah!, "what's it for?" , goodness he should know the answer by now!
- 5 May 2010 08:47
- Angela said...
Not sure how I have managed to miss your recent posts, although box mountain could have something to do with it.
Your quilt is gorgeous, much easier to put together than any cake.I bet Stuart doesn't ask what it's for when on a cold winters evening you put it over his legs to keep him warm. He's got a big birthday coming up and we all know how we need to take care of the elderly :-)
P.S, please don't send me to the naughty chair for being cheeky. - 5 May 2010 10:12
- Heather said...
Your quilt is lovely Gina - I have often been tempted by those rolls of fabric but am not really a quilter so 'saw sense'! There are some beautiful fabrics about now but there is a lot more to quilting than meets the eye. Your hexagons might make a new piece of work to be viewed from the 'wrong' side - interesting possibility?
- 5 May 2010 10:37
- Judy Scott said...
bravo!!!! its brilliant :) now a cuppa a slice of cake and stroking quilts - perfect
- 5 May 2010 12:37
- Toffeeapple said...
Wonderful work there Gina. May we see the whole quilt please?
I have an unfinished hexagon quilt too, I'm sure I'll never finish it. - 5 May 2010 13:30
- Lucy Locket-Pocket said...
Your new quilt is gorgeous Gina and the binding is the perfect fabric - well found!
- 5 May 2010 14:00
- vintagerockchick said...
Oh No! You've beaten me - and I started my three years ago! Well done (grudgingly) x
- 5 May 2010 16:46
- sharon young said...
What a lovely colourful and inspiring post Gina, and congrats on finishing your quilt, it looks amazing.
Aren't men funny creatures, why does everything have to 'be for something?' Mine's just :-) - 5 May 2010 21:01
- jude said...
One word - overachiever.
(Future in itinerant quilting and I'll help you carry the frame)
Bring on the fat quarter! - 5 May 2010 21:31
- A Time to Dance said...
Your quilt is stunning, I would love a quilt like that, I have a similar hexagon upstairs in the spare room, also started in the late '80's when I got married,must have been the thing..I got bored and sewed the big hexagons onto plain fabric and cheated...perhaps I should re cycle and look at up-dating it....hope you are well...H
- 6 May 2010 06:50
- Sarah said...
The road to quilting mania takes but a step!!! Welcome to the madhouse!!
The quilt looks lovely - and I know what you mean about making it for the joy of looking at it. I feel exactly the same!
x - 6 May 2010 11:56
- Kitty said...
I think that stripey/checky and a bit floral quilt is absolutely gorgeous. Well done you for doing it. I've only ever made one full sized quilt and I'm not sure I'll ever make another! x
- 6 May 2010 16:17
- Linda said...
What a lovely quilt. I started one but never finished it so I do admire yours, especially the hand stitching.
- 6 May 2010 17:21
- Mermaid's Purse said...
A beautiful quilt .......... just waiting to be stroked!
- 6 May 2010 19:16
- Dolores said...
Congratulations on your quilt finish. Big sigh of relief. Now, if you don't want the hexagons why not give them away. There are so many people out there that would love to finish it and it makes more sense than throwing it out. Personally, I would never do one - it's just way too much work. Do you have a recipe for the cake?
- 7 May 2010 18:11
- Tracey Petersen said...
Too lovely.
- 8 May 2010 09:50
- Jackie said...
I've made several quilts all of them hand quilted and several little ones and used some of those LA colours! I should hang on to them if I were you..its amazing what comes around again.
- 8 May 2010 19:42
- silverpebble said...
How did I miss this quilt? I ADORE it Gina - you know I have one along similar lines that my frind N made me. Those mitred corners are quite amazing. Hmm though, I have an attack of the cake wanties too x
- 9 May 2010 13:39
- Heather said...
Oh, Gina--I absolutely love your new quilt!! The fabrics are so peaceful...just the thing to lull someone to sleep...warm and quiet.
...and regarding your WIPs...isn't it funny how our 'color tastes' change over a lifetime? There are rooms I wallpapered (in 'past' houses, thankfully!) that I'm embarrassed to have done, thinking back.
Maybe the hexagon one could become a baby quilt one day? (Even if the 'colours and design are ghastly', babies don't care!!!
:) - 11 May 2010 07:50
- Penny said...
Lovely, lovely quilt and I too have 'unfinished syphonies'in handstitched hexagons too. We really ought to carry on with our great grandchildren in mind!
- 13 May 2010 08:04
- kristina said...
I agree a layer cake-layer cake is the only one I really understand. I'm still intimidated by my rotary cutter!
But that didn't stop me buying the Jane Brocket book, too! And I've been in love with the same roll of washed vintage fabrics since I first spied it at Liberty with Ali. The quilt you made with them is so lovely!

WASHINGTON — U.S. Representative Mike McIntyre, who has ascended to be the No. 2 ranking member of the Agriculture Committee, has also been appointed to two key subcommittees for the 113th Congress.
Beginning his 17th year on the committee, McIntyre will serve on both the Livestock, Rural Development, and Credit Subcommittee and the Energy, Conservation, and Forestry Subcommittee.
"Agriculture is extremely vital to North Carolina's economy, and I will keep working to do all I can to help North Carolina farmers compete and produce crops for our consumption and security," McIntyre said in a release. "In addition, I will ensure that we protect the vital resources important to farmers, help small communities and towns with rural development needs, and maintain the safety net for our farmers."
Jurisdiction for the Livestock, Rural Development and Credit Subcommittee includes: livestock, dairy, poultry, meat, seafood and seafood products, inspection, marketing, and promotion of such commodities, aquaculture, animal welfare and grazing, rural development, farm security and family farming matters and agricultural credit.
Jurisdiction for the Energy Conservation and Forestry Subcommittee include: soil, water, and resource conservation, small watershed program, energy and bio-based energy production, rural electrification, forestry in general and forest reserves.
North Carolina's 7th Congressional District is one of the top livestock producing districts in the country with over $2.1 billion in business from the industry occurring each year. This places the district in the top four percent in the country for livestock production.
Agriculture producers in Eastern North Carolina rank third in turkey production, fourth in pork production, and 19th in chicken production among the 435 Congressional Districts of the United States.
