Family of Man Shot, Killed in Intersection Asking Witnesses to Come Forward
By: Marci Manley, KARK 4 News
Updated: February 26, 2013
Charles Hall, Jr. was shot and killed in Little Rock near 11th and Fair Park Streets on Oct. 25, 2012.
Police, pastors and Hall's family believe witnesses who saw something are out there, and they need them to come forward to help investigators.
"They go out and beat the bushes, but they can't do it by themselves. They need help from the community," said Reverend Benny Johnson, with Stop the Violence.
Police say the shooter's vehicle has been described as a black Cadillac with rear damage on the right side, most likely fixed at a local body shop.
Police want the public to know they can provide tips to investigators without giving their name, and any detail could help solve Hall's murder case.

The show is over. The mood is electric and unforgettable. Certain moments should not fade away.It's from this desire of meeting and cementing on the brief but profound rapport created during the show that gave rise to Gen Rosso workshops.
A day off to 'live' together, each one bringing along his/her instrument, voice, energy to dance and do theatre.
Gen Rosso: no stage nor lighting system, simply available to all.
Work, sweat, thrill but above all it's about sharing of a unique artistic experience that embraces many spheres of life. Here exists no professional nor observer, talent or mediocrity. The work laboratory functions because all are at parity.
It is the discovery of art, helping each other, learning.
In the evening the 'small' or 'big' show put up during the day is ready and each one is either an actor or spectator depending on his/her turn a clear test that the youth thou coming from different backgrounds, are animated by the same interest and values as they sing in unison. Gen Rosso workshops are a tangible proof.

EvanPApr 1, 20109Definitely better than the average Dreamworks picture. It's great story telling at its finest. The visuals were phenomenal and the characters were memorable. All wrapped together with an incredibale score. I haven't been this involved in a movie in a long time.
EricCApr 3, 201010What an awesome movie!!! If you ever dreamed of what it would be like to be a Dragon fighter... or be a viking... or be a Dragon.... then you have to see this film. And if not... if you've ever caught yourself wishing they still knew how to make good movies...then you have to see this film.
JamesHApr 5, 201010
SusanApr 5, 201010Loved it. Best film I've seen in 3D. I was charmed from start to finish.
RandyM.Mar 27, 20109Simply put: "How to Train Your Dragon" is a spectacular, heart-warming thrill ride. This movie rocked.
TaylorD.Mar 27, 201010Absolutely Incredible. Emotional and awe-inspiring the first fly scene gave me goosebumps.
ThomasHApr 2, 201010Superb, best film I've seen for a good few years, excellent story, emotional and brilliant. A must see.
AndrewRApr 4, 201010Absolutely amazing! Some of the best visuals from a CGI movie! It is perfect for kids and adults and offers something for everyone. Go see this movie before it is too late!
NickJApr 4, 201010Charming. A simple plot, but done in a way that was so amusing that it worked. I enjoyed watching Toothless in action, from flying to simply running around.
AaronW.Mar 26, 20109Truely amazing, this movie is the first good non-Pixar CGI animated film since Kung Fu Panda (which also got a 73). It is a true marvel, and the main dragon, Toothless, really tops it off with his cute/action packed nature. It is a charmer, yet also filled with tons of action and an in-depth story that truely is not something to be missed.
MichaelH.Mar 26, 201010This was totally awesome. The title is the only weak part of it. If you think that this is just some run of the mill coming of age story, it's not. It's got depth, emotion, tension, and realistic voice acting. The effects are breathtaking, but it's clear from the start that that's not why they made this movie. Two thumbs WAY up!
ChadS.Mar 27, 201010
RickAMar 30, 201010I liked this movie a lot. Had every thing I like in a movie. Action, emotion, very good story line, great acting (animation inspired), voiced to perfection. I must say from the title I was not expecting much. What a surprisingly excellent movie.
JonWApr 1, 20109Just ignore all the negative New York reviews - what a surprise! - It's wonderful, great storytelling, visuals and message.
JWApr 2, 201010This movie blew me away... somebody has been watching Pixar's movies and taking very close note.
EthanRApr 3, 201010
MitchRApr 5, 201010A simple film with a simple story. Every little piece is done perfectly creating a powerful film worth seeing.
JennaF.Mar 26, 201010Adorable, emotional, and fun to look at.
WayneA.Mar 27, 201010My vote for Film of The Year so far.... I really enjoyed it. Makes me want to buy a 3D TV in time for its Blu-Ray release! A must see!
JamieCMar 28, 201010Perfect! Beautiful animation, great story, characterization and dialogue, good choice of actors for the voices, just overall a great film. Don't wait, see it now in 3D!
AdityaU.Mar 28, 201010Great movie, graphic is top-notch, i very like a scene when Hiccup fly alongside Astrid
BobN.Mar 29, 201010How to Train your Dragon was a great, interesting movie. If you're looking for a family friendly movie, this is a movie to watch. This movie also includes the thrilling scenes people want to watch. The creatures in this movie are very interesting.
OrenK.Mar 29, 201010this is a very good movie. Is it not like all the other movies that dreamworks has made in the past years. The 3d is also very good.
IanBMar 31, 201010Fantastic movie. Kids loved it. Wife loved it. I loved it. If taking a family of five to the movies wasn't so expensive, we'd have gone a second time. I can't believe some of the professional critics are scoring it so low. It was a great movie.
Oct 26, 201010
Oct 2, 20109Probably the best animated movie i've seen yet. With a simple but very witty storyline, greatly designed characters, amazing graphics, this movie has it all. I think it's a big must-see for everyone.
Nov 16, 201010Although this is a kid's movie i can guarantee that almost anyone who see it will just fall in love with it. Good overall cast, very likable characters and a story that really draws you in. I really wish i had a dragon now.
Oct 16, 201010The best Childrens movie since Finding Nemo. I loved every second of it. I was so enveloped in it i swear to god i wanted to adopt Toothless. And the ending does not disappoint at all. The only thing that bugged me was this story is serious, and they named the main character Hiccup? Whatever the movie completely overshadows that.
Apr 13, 201110I like movies done by DreamWorks Animation, but none seemed to reach the emotional tone of Pixar movies, until this fantastic movie came. Had "Toy Story 3" not been released in the same year, this movie would've definitely been my pick for best animated movie of the year.
Mar 19, 201110Absolutely loved it. The 3D was amazing, as was the animation. The score was beautiful. Script was smart & funny. And oh how adorable was that dragon?! I love how Dreamworks are paying homage to genres with love rather than parodying them with hate. I thought it was just as good as Toy Story 3!

Nov 8, 20109How to train your Dragon was a great movie!
The plot was brilliant and I thought this was a heart warming film because if you think
about it a boy and a friendship with a dragon is nice.
The action sequences were great, there were some moments where I chuckled a bit!
All in all great movie! -
Nov 3, 20109How to Train your Dragon gives you all the reasons to fall in love with kids adventure movies over and over again. It portrays the perfect blend of adventure, family sentimentality and finding one-self.

Mar 18, 201110One of the best movies I've ever seen, the story is awesome, the characters are likable, and it's hilarious, one of the best movies of 2010, it earns a perfect 10, a must see.
Jan 7, 201110Do you remember Stitch ? Well, our dragon has his face. And that is a good thing! Many times during the movie I was amazed how they blended the "cute" dragon with a living beast. It's so believable. OK - I admit I simply like the dragon :) The presentation is easily the best 3D I've seen so far and although the story is a bit predictable, still a solid 10 for me.
Feb 12, 201110Rather brilliant, full of real emotion and wonderful breathtaking setpieces. Music is sublime, the animation is beyond beautiful and as an all round package ,one of the best animated movies of the year. Take the hint Dreamworks, more movies like this!

May 31, 20119A fantastic film. The story is fabulously original, with a strong supporting cast of actors. The actors are always on the ball with how the line should be delivered. The animation quality is top notch, and the designer of toothless knows exactly how to create the worlds cutest fire breathing monster. The film was a masterpiece of modern animation, and well worth your money.
Aug 18, 201110Wow! This is great.. I recommend anyone who hasn't to get off the couch and buy it. Great movie Dreamworks Animation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dec 11, 20119Albeit the lack of originality, "How to Train Your Dragon" has a clever and funny story, emotional impact and good messages to its target audience. And it is the best DreamWorks animation since "Shrek".
Dec 15, 201110
May 29, 201210One of Dreamworks best films. No wonder it has a 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. Great characters and a ton of dragon action scenes render this as a great start to a potential franchise.
Dec 31, 201110
Jan 7, 201210Possibly the greatest kids movie in a very long time. Absolutely charming, stunningly beautiful, and perfectly satisfying. This is the sort of family movie that actually does what the genre says and appeals to the whole family. I loved it.
Feb 7, 201210
May 20, 201210An entertaining tale on how a Viking boy befriends a dragon. Fantastic visual effects, and proberly the only film I have seen where I have actually liked the 3D. Well worth a watch 10/10
Mar 17, 201210This movie is amazing and is filled with crisp animation. It is funny and is filled with some great punch lines. I have watched it about five times. Also the special effects are great and I loved all of the movies. Next, this movie is filled with depth and the script is great. I couldn't believe it was actually a kids movie. All parts of it were fantastic and I call it the best movie every.
Mar 31, 20129First off, I would give this a 9.25 out of 10. Great animation. Action sequences can be pretty great. Story is also well crafted. Score is epic, and the acting is quite well done. Highly recommend.

She claimed it was because it "wasn't fair" that she was the only one who had to sleep alone at night (the boys share a room, Mom & Dad share a room. It makes sense, I guess) but the reality was she would get scared. She would rather sleep on a hard floor with her brothers than in a comfy bed all alone.
Lately she has started sleeping in her own bed but insists that her closet light stay on all night. The few times that I have gone in and turned the closet light off after she has fallen asleep have inevitably led to her showing up at my bedside at 3am asking if she can sleep in my bed because she had a bad dream. So yeah, apparently a little light OR her brothers' snoring keeps bad dreams away.
Fine. Then let's at least make a nightlight that is adorable, right?

Comments about Steve Silver Company Steve Silver Branson Side Chair in Natural:
These chairs look great, and two of them were perfect, but the other two wobbled just slightly. We were able to get chair foot pads at [...] for a couple dollars and put one page on the short leg of the two wobbly chairs and they work great now, but it would have been nice if the company had included them for this type of situation. But, it was an easy solution and at least we didn't have to package the chairs up and send them back!

Crazed Fruit (Kurutta Kajitsu) [DVD]
Director : Ko Nakahira
Screenplay : Shintaro Ishihara (based on his novel)
MPAA Rating : NR
Year of Release : 1956
Stars : Yujiro Ishihara (Natsuhisa), Masahiko Tsugawa (Haruji), Mie Kitahara (Eri), Masumi Okada (Frank), Harold Conway (American businessman)
In the United States, the 1950s was the decade of the juvenile delinquent film. Although there were antecedents, the cycle was really kick-started by 1955's The Blackboard Jungle, which scandalized audiences not only with its depiction of rough, switchblade-wielding youth bucking authority, but also with its reckless use of "Rock Around the Clock" over the opening credits. The JD cycle was solidified later that year with Rebel Without a Cause, which turned James Dean into a matinee idol of teenage ennui.
As it so happens, at about that same time a similar cinematic cycle was beginning on the other side of the world in Japan, which was just a few years out of Allied occupation and was trying to reassert itself as a world power. These taiyozoku, or "Sun Tribe" films, depicted a class of Japanese youth who were wealthy, restless, and staunchly opposed to the kind of rigorous formality and tradition that defined their elders. While juvenile delinquents in the U.S. were invariably associated with the lower classes, their jabs at authority explained by their dire socioeconomic position, the antiheroes of the taiyozoku were listless because they were wealthy and free -- they had too much money and too much time on their hands.
The movie that started it all was Crazed Fruit (Kurutta Kajitsu), a sun-drenched teenage melodrama based on a scandalous and popular novel by Shintaro Ishihara, who was the preeminent voice of the Sun Tribe (the first four movies in the cycle were all based on his works). It tells the story of two brothers, Natsuhisa (Yujiro Ishihara, the younger brother of the film's author) and Haruji (Masahiko Tsugawa), who are linked by little more than their bloodline. Whereas the older Natsuhisa is extroverted, bold, jaded, and sexually experienced, the younger Haruji is shy, idealistic, and largely inexperienced in all matters sexual. During a summer spent by the ocean, they both end up falling for the same girl, an intoxicating and mysterious beauty named Eri (Mie Kitahara, impossible cute despite a terrible haircut).
Thus, the story is your basic love triangle, inflated with the potentially combustible elements of brotherly jealousy and troubled youth teetering on the edge of an ever-widening generation gap. There is little that is original in the story per se, and one can argue that its violent ending stretches the point of credulity, forcing the association of shattered innocence with homicidal psychosis. However, since the film is a tawdry melodrama at heart, it's not too hard to accept its more over-the-top elements.
The film is anchored well by the three central performers, all of whom were relative unknowns at the time. They're each playing a type -- the cynical older brother, the idealistic innocent, and the mysterious object of their affection -- but Yujiro Ishihara, Masahiko Tsugawa, and Mie Kitahara convince us of their characters' humanity above and beyond the obvious. They also invest their scenes together with a great deal of sensuality, which caused the film no end of troubles with the Japanese censors. Although relatively tame by today's standards, the film's simple and honest depiction of casually sexually active teenagers was enough to mobilize numerous protestors (this aspect of the film was surely what encouraged American importers to screen it in the U.S. under the exploitative title Juvenile Jungle).
Crazed Fruit was directed by Ko Nakahira, a contract director at the Nikkatsu studio who was all of 30 at the time and had only one other feature film under his belt. Filled with imagery borrowed from the burgeoning French nouvelle vague, he turned Crazed Fruit into an aesthetically exhilarating experiment, rather than the routine program picture the studio probably envisioned (curiously, Nakahira would go on to a prolific, but hardly profound film career). With its shock cuts, extreme close-ups, associative imagery, and a willfully salacious score that mixes jazz and Hawaiian music with virtuous aplomb, Crazed Fruit was like nothing anyone in Japan had seen before, at least from one their own. If the film doesn't seem quite so groundbreaking today, it is only because its style and themes have been driven into the ground by countless others, most of which fail to live up to Crazed Fruit's heady mixture of sex, restlessness, and good ol' fashioned teenage rage.

The new high-definition transfer was made from a 35mm print struck from the original negative. Digital clean-up has removed most of the dirt and blemishes, although it is fairly clear that the print wasn't in excellent condition to begin with; however, the only time there is any distracting damage is one (probably stock footage) shot of a Ferris Wheel that shows numerous blotches. Otherwise, the image is clean and clear. The black-and-white imagery is sharp and well-detailed throughout. | ||
The original monaural soundtrack sounds very good, with virtually no ambient hiss. The funky musical score by Masaru Sato and Toru Takemitsu has good vibrancy throughout. | ||
Japanese-film scholar Donald Richie offers an indispensable screen-specific audio commentary for those (like me) who were largely unaware of both this film and the whole "Sun Tribe" cycle. Richie discusses the film in its historical and sociological contexts, expounding on everything from the importance of water skiing in postwar Japan to Nakahira's aesthetic borrowings from French filmmaking. The only other supplement on the disc is the tawdry original theatrical trailer, although the insert booklet contains a pair of first-rate essays by film scholars Chuck Stephens and Michael Raine. |

DETROIT (AP) A jurys pledge to justly hear a criminal case is a mandatory part of any trial, the Michigan appeals court said Friday as it threw out a conviction in Jackson County because jurors were not given the oath.
The challenge was raised by an attorney for David Allan, who was charged with conspiring with his daughter to commit extortion. Prosecutors said Allans daughter met a man at a strip club in 2010, had sex with him months later and threatened to accuse him of rape unless he paid her.
Jurors were sworn-in during the selection process before the 2011 trial, but apparently not before opening statements and the presentation of evidence.
Allans appellate lawyer, Randy Davidson, said he discovered the problem while reviewing the transcript.
Its just something we do, he said in an interview. From my experience and training, I know the general order of things in a trial. I didnt see the (oath) and thought, `Thats unusual.
The oath typically is read to jurors by a judge or a court clerk, and the jurors then reply in the affirmative.
Jurors are asked to pledge that they will justly decide the questions submitted to them and come up with a verdict only on the evidence introduced and in accordance with the instructions of the court, so help you God.
The appeals court said its important.
The oath is not mere formality. Rather, it is a long-standing common-law requirement that is necessary to protect defendants constitutional right to a trial by an impartial jury, judges William Whitbeck, E. Thomas Fitzgerald and Jane Beckering said.
The three-judge panel said Allan, 52, must be given another trial. He is serving a minimum sentence of 10 years in prison. Jennifer Allan, 30, pleaded guilty and was recently released on parole, according to Corrections Department records.
Prosecutors had argued that any mistake shouldnt lead to a new trial. Jackson County assistant prosecutor Jerry Schrotenboer said the decision will be appealed to the Michigan Supreme Court. He called the case extraordinarily unusual.
It wasnt David Allans first brush with the law. He has past convictions for larceny and manslaughter, according to online state records.

I know, I know. It's so fun to buy new toys (or really, anything) for babies and children. But here's the thing. At least, for babies – totally unnecessary. I've discovered many freebies that have become some of Baby Zog's very favorite things to entertain himself with. So, here you go:
1. Empty milk jug. Simply rinse out once emptied, and allow baby to play. The handle is perfect for grasping and it makes for an excellent drum.
2. Empty water bottles. They make crinkly noises when squished. Nuff said. But also, Baby Zog ADORES drinking out of water bottles. So, he likes to practice with his empty one.
3. Catalogs that come in the mail. Or really, any mail you don't care about. Baby Zog loves to rip paper. Personally, I prefer he not do this to my books. So, after reading my fashion magazines or any random catalogs I don't care about, they become Baby Zog's. And then he does his own study of fashion, shopping, etc.
4. Measuring spoons and cups. A little quieter than letting your little one play with your pots and pans (although this is also useful). It's something you already have in your home and is probably fairly indestructible.
5. Remote control. I don't know about your baby, but mine LOVES all things electronics. We have an extra remote control, so we removed the batteries and that became Baby Zog's domain. He love pushing the buttons and thinking that he is controlling the TV. (Unfortunately for us, he recently figured out which button on the TV actually does control the power. This occurred during the Saturday afternoon session of LDS conference. It was just a leeetle hard to concentrate.)
I hope that helps. Those are a few of Baby Zog's favorite things.

Home � Neighborhood News � The Salem Observer
Envisioning a more beautiful bypass
During the March 18 meeting of the Board of Selectmen, the question of who would be responsible for maintaining the landscaped byway was discussed in detail among board members.
During the recent budget process, the board agreed to meet with the town's existing contractors to figure out who would be responsible for the site's ongoing maintenance.
Town Administrator David Sullivan said he met with project officials earlier this month and during this week's meeting shared further details of the project's scope and anticipated bid process.
Last year the area wasn't maintained as it should have been, and Sullivan said the site is now in serious need of some litter removal, mowing, weeding and mulching.
"This year we're proposing the bypass be maintained four times per year," Sullivan said.
He said that in order to stay within the budget, the work should go to Boyden's Landscaping, a Pelham-based company that already does similar projects in town.
Sullivan said he expects the project to cost about $5,000 a year.
The budget allocates $16,000 for the sole purpose of landscaping various town-owned sites.
"We have to do something this year because that whole area looks horrible," Selectman Kathleen DiFruschia said of the bypass. "But I'd like to give (Boyden) the chance to remove the weeds and make the area look better."
Sullivan said this week's snowstorm would probably mean a later start for this year's beautifying, as April 1 was initially targeted as the project's starting point for the season.
The board agreed not to put the project to bid, and instead awarded a one-year contract to Boyden's Landscaping.

By Wallace Witkowski and Laura Mandaro, MarketWatch
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — U.S. stocks eked out slight gains Wednesday, supported by strength in the housing sector, while energy stocks dragged on the market as oil futures fell.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average /quotes/zigman/627449 DJIA -0.03% closed up 13.32 points, or 0.1%, at 13,577.96, led by shares of Walt Disney Co. /quotes/zigman/245568/quotes/nls/dis DIS 0.00% and Home Depot Inc. /quotes/zigman/229488/quotes/nls/hd HD -0.17% . The index had earlier reached an intraday high of 13,626.48.
• Home prices jump to 6-year high in November
• Best and worst states for home price growth
• Lennar shares tick down on home orders
• Slide show: Castles for commoners
• The 10 best U.S. suburbs to live in
The S&P 500 Index /quotes/zigman/3870025 SPX -0.08% finished up 1.73 points at 1,461.05, with consumer-discretionary stocks leading the way higher. The Nasdaq Composite Index /quotes/zigman/12633936 COMP -0.09% rose 4.82 points to 3,182.62.
Energy shares were the worst performers, falling 0.9%. Oil futures started to fall sharply just before the release of an Energy Information Administration report on weekly oil inventories, and stayed down after it showed a larger-than-expected supply increase. See: Oil tumbles 3.5% to six-week low.
Oil for October delivery settled down 3.5% at $91.98 a barrel.
The EIA figures just confirmed that crude-oil prices have been a little overextended lately, according to Ken Tower, chief market strategist at Quantitative Analysis Service.
"Declines in crude do not suggest a larger decline, it's found a pretty good level," Tower said, adding that he sees crude-oil prices in the $90 to $100 range over the next 3 to 4 months.
Stocks associated with housing did much of the heavy lifting in Wednesday's fractional gains, with easing efforts out of Japan providing a slight boost, according to Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at BTIG.
Home-builder stocks rallied with shares of PulteGroup Inc. /quotes/zigman/129784/quotes/nls/phm PHM -1.16% up 4.3%, D.R. Horton Inc. /quotes/zigman/224125/quotes/nls/dhi DHI -1.60% rising 4.1% and Lennar Corp. /quotes/zigman/232035/quotes/nls/len LEN -1.35% up 1.9%. Whirlpool Corp. /quotes/zigman/246389/quotes/nls/whr WHR +0.0077% shares also rose 2.6%, and Sherwin-Williams Co. /quotes/zigman/240736/quotes/nls/shw SHW -0.40% advanced 2.5%.
Earlier in the day, the National Association of Realtors said sales rose 7.8% in August to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.82 million, better than the 4.6 million expected by economists polled by MarketWatch. See: Sales of existing homes surge in August.
Stocks started on a weak footing after the Commerce Department reported that housing starts rose 2.3% in August to an annual rate of 750,000, short of the expected 775,000 pace. See: Housing rebound taking shape.
Sentiment was also bolstered overnight after the Bank of Japan said it would increase the size of its asset purchases by 10 trillion yen ($126.7 billion) to ¥80 trillion. See: Bank of Japan adds to stimulus.
"The Japan news was marginally positive, but [the market's] just sort of drifting higher primarily because of consumer discretionary," Greenhaus added.
Euro crisis feeds the gold bugs
Gold hit a six-month high this week as the Bank of Japan joins central banks around the world with a further round of monetary easing.
Japan's move followed stimulus measures from the Federal Reserve and European Central Bank, which have lifted equities, depressed the U.S. dollar and supported gold — seen as a hedge against falling paper currencies.
The Nikkei 225 /quotes/zigman/5986735 JP:NIK +1.83% on Monday jumped 1.2% and Europe's Stoxx 600 /quotes/zigman/2380150 XX:SXXP -0.19% edged up 0.4%. See: Japan policy-easing juices Asia stocks.
Gold for December delivery touched $1,781.80 an ounce intraday and settled up 50 cents at $1,772.70 an ounce. The dollar index /quotes/zigman/1652083 DXY -0.17% was slightly lower, at 79.13. See: Gold futures gain after Bank of Japan.

The town of Wadesboro received a grant for $18,638 from the N.C. Rural Economic Development Center to map and devise an asset management plan for the town's water system, according to the Rural Center.
The town received its award letter at the beginning of the month and is in the beginning stages of the administration process, according to Town Manager Alex Sewell.
"The town is excited about the positive impact it will have on our community," Sewell said via email. "We're constantly striving to improve our water quality and infrastructure for our citizens, and this is a big step in the right direction. We would not have secured the grant without the support of the Town Council, and the hard work of Ms. Mary Beck and public services director Hugh James."
The grant is a 50/50 grant, meaning that the Rural Center will contribute $18,638 and the town will match that contribution. The money will be used specifically to develop water and sewer mapping, an asset management plan, and a new capital improvements plan (CIP), according to Sewell.
The Rural Center announced the $4 million in grants it provided to over 30 counties on March 5. The grants will be used within those counties to create jobs, provide clean water and assist with economic development in rural counties. According to the rural center, the 31 grants will create 451 jobs in various counties through economic infrastructure grants to enable new business locations and expansions, among assisting other projects. The funding for the rural center comes from appropriations by appropriations of the N.C. General Assembly and state Clean Water Bonds.
