Penni Guidry watched from her living room window on a hot summer day as two little girls parked their bicycles in her side yard, had a leisurely snack and rode off.
Guidry was delighted. She enjoys having a neighborhood gathering place.
"I tell everybody to come in, bring lunch, meditate," she said.
Her garden is loosely laid out with trails and beds and is filled with things other people have thrown out.
"I am the queen of repurposing," Guidry said. "A lot of what I have in the garden I found on the side of the road. It's free and found. Just because something has scuffs doesn't mean you have to throw it away."
Guidry, who moved three years ago from West Monroe, said she likes anything mismatched.
"It goes along with my asymmetrical soul," she said.
In West Monroe, she lived a quiet life in the country, but "life put me in Plan B," she said.
Then she met local attorney David Mooney, who "swooned me down here."
"I had a picket fence in West Monroe. He built one in front of this house using the same pattern, and the rest is history," she said.
Guidry said she thought she would miss country living, but she loves her life in the Capital Heights neighborhood of Baton Rouge.
"I think my Plan B was that I was supposed to be around more people," she said.
Two years ago, Guidry and Mooney purchased the vacant lot next door to their home.
That's when the Guidry-Mooney yard became an informal neighborhood park.
Guidry was born a collector. "The curse came from my mother," she said. The vacant lot gave her a place to put some of her things.
She located a 1964 vintage Yellowstone travel trailer on Craigslist. It's the focus of the back of the lot, the area she calls her "trailer park."
Next to the trailer is an authentic telephone booth she bought at a scrap yard in Arkansas for $15 as a present for her son on his 13th birthday. He's 36 now, and the phone still works.
The trailer park also contains a metal table with chairs, where Guidry and Mooney often have meals.
"If the weather permits, we're outside eating," Guidry said.
To the left of the trailer park is her quiet garden filled with plants from her late grandmother.
At the center is a fountain Guidry found on the side of the road as she and Mooney were driving by.
"I sat on it and said, 'Go get the truck,'" she said with a laugh.
Between the quiet garden and the trailer park, Guidry created a "touch of Key West" with a lighted palm tree and a brightly colored flamingo sitting atop a shocking pink table.
Throughout the lot are beds lined with chunks of concrete from broken driveways and construction sites. There are old doors and windows strategically placed as well as found metal chairs and tables.
Guidry loves metal furniture because it reminds her of her grandmother.
At the center of the lot is a dance floor made by Mooney for the April wedding of his son and daughter-in-law, T. Ryan and Shauna Mooney. T. Ryan Mooney is a stuntman in Hollywood.
"She wanted to have her wedding out here," Guidry said. "It was spectacular. Hollywood happened that night."
The checked wooden dance floor is just one of David Mooney's many projects.
"I have all the ideas," Guidry said. "David can do anything. He's the master wizard at doing things."
Guidry found most of the garden items on the side of the road. Others were left by friends, neighbors or perfect strangers including a chandelier that just showed up.
"I can get up in the morning, go in the yard and often find trinkets people have left, like fairies have come in the middle of the night," Guidry said.
Guidry and Mooney love to entertain. Halloween is their big event. That's when they convert their adjoining lot to a haunted park with witches, vampires and a fortune teller.
They have hosted a 1950s sock hop and other theme parties. There are no formal invitations. Neighbors know they are invited from information written on old cabinet doors at the front of the yard.
"The sign lets the neighborhood know what is going on," said Guidry, who admits that she and Mooney are having the time of their lives.
"We got the kids' teeth straightened. We got the kids educated, and now we're having fun," she said. "We travel. We visit with neighbors."
And, of course, they work on the never-ending project.
The garden is always changing. A discarded train cart holds a dead body at Halloween and flowering plants at Easter.
"The goal is to have the garden slightly unkempt, random and wild," Guidry said. "Everywhere you look you find something. But it does kind of make some sense."
Guidry says that her daughter, Allison Guidry, who lives in Nashville, Tenn., calls her a hoarder.
"I'm not a hoarder," she told her daughter. "I use my things, and I can get in the front door."

This week is Thanksgiving, a time when many of us gather together as a family. Sometimes those gatherings can get interesting, because our family is… well, interesting. We often have people we really appreciate, and some we merely tolerate. Either way, they hold a special place in our heart because they're family. And families stick together no matter what.
Some businesses, especially small to mid-sized ones, think of themselves as a "family." I propose that this is a wrong way of thinking.
You see, families are all about people committed to one another. They don't (usually) choose each other, but do choose (hopefully) to stand by each other through thick and thin, because preserving the relationship is what matters most. A healthy business, however, understands that its people are part of a team, not a family.
Teams are assembled for a common purpose. Its members are chosen based on their character and what each of them can contribute to the team's effort. In other words, they fit the mission of the team. While they may occasionally make mistakes or act inappropriately, overall they continue to earn their place on the team by the value they bring. Otherwise their positions are in jeopardy.
Because for a team, preserving the Purpose matters more than preserving the relationships. I know this doesn't sit well with many people, even among those in leadership positions. And that's a problem, because it means at times they are willing to sacrifice the integrity of the team for the sake of the feelings of a few individuals. This is a losing proposition in the long run. As we must remember, unlike a family, team members choose their team as well. The best and brightest on a team will not continue to choose a team that allows others to barely scrape by, not bringing value and detracting from the mission of the team. So in an effort to protect the worst, leaders can lose the best.
As a business leader or owner, you have a responsibility to build the strongest team you can. Choosing the best People, both to add and to keep, is the most important element of building A Business That Matters, so choose wisely.

Long gone are the days of clean and pristine film-making in Bollywood. As the industry attempts to move with the times, it doesn't remain untouched of some sort of controversy. News has it that filmmaker Sudhir Mishra has used the word 'sex' 262 times in his upcoming venture 'Inkaar', which will indeed cause outrage for some.
Although not actually including any direct sexual scenes, the filmmakers appear to feel the need to explain why the word is being used so much. "The film is not about sex. It deals with sexual dynamics between colleagues at work. The subject might be bold and controversial but it essentially is the war between two opposite sexes," Mid-Day reports a source stating.
The source goes onto say how the word has been incorporated in a way that it in no way seems "out of place."
The film, starring Arjun Rampal and Chitrangada Singh, is about two colleagues battling out a sexual harassment case.

Petroleum Geophysicist
National Oil Corporation of Kenya.
Abiud Masinde is a Petroleum Geophysicist at National Oil Corporation of Kenya involved in seismic processing and interpretation projects, he is also a PhD student at the University of Nairobi specializing in exploration geophysics. His research field is Simultaneous Joint Inversion in geophysical processing and interpretation. He has published 2 journal papers and attended three international academic conferences.
SESSION 1: Petroleum prospectivity of offshore Lamu basin, Kenya: Davie Walu Fracture Zone
Davie Walu Fracture Zone is a 2200 km long strike slip transverse fault in the late Mesozoic along which Madagascar was separated from east coast of Africa, creating a transform margin. Gravity isostasy sourced from the International Gravity Bureau (BGI) data were filtered and processed to give the overall regional interpretation of the major and minor structures within the basin. A seismic interpretation study was undertaken on 58 migrated 2D marine seismic lines (over 5110km) acquired by Woodside Petroleum Limited in 2003 in the Lamu Basin, offshore Kenya. A synthetic seismogram was generated from which all the horizon markers were picked across all strike and dip lines to obtain varying amplitude and time values. Structural maps were generated to display the geometry of geologic features on time maps. Thickness variations and trends of target formations were derived from isopach maps.
Davie Walu Fracture Ridge (DWFR) has large positive gravity anomalies extending from the Kenyan mainland to Tanzanian offshore with a NW-SE trend. Davie Walu Fracture zone is an inverted harpoon that exhibits flower structures on seismic section due to inversion monocline. The edges of the DWFR have large-sharp negative anomalies which indicate a large vertical displacement brought by the adjacent faults along the fracture zone. These faults assume the same trend as the DWFR marking the boundary of the Lamu basin to the NE. The displacements brought by these faults have created gravity-negative depocentres such as the Happy valley and the Tembo trough both located west of the DWFZ. Tembo trough shows little gravity variation, which implies relatively same depth. On the other hand, Happy valley portray a varying trend of sediment thickness evidenced by the negative gravity variation. It dips steeply eastwards to be offset by the DWFZ major fault. Campanian Two Way Time (TWT) map depicts large throw faults separating Happy valley from the Davie Walu Fracture Ridge. They are deep Jurassic faults oriented NW-SE that structurally binds sediment thickness to the east.
Late Miocene to Mid Miocene thickness map shows the influence of basin structures in the zone. The north-west section indicates that the accommodation space has been filled with sediments exceeding 1400ms TWT. The sediments thin out around DWFZ but thicken out by forming a wedge to the east of DWFZ. The top of this zone is interpreted as the unconformity formed after late inversion of DWFZ and Simba high. Mid Miocene to Palaeocene thickness map shows zone thickening to the west up to 2400ms TWT.
The inverted Davie Walu Fracture Ridge is underlain by an anticlinal structure. This structure is a characteristic of rotated fault blocks and faulting. The excessive erosion related to the sea level changes may have made sedimentation above Campanian to thin. Several tectonic episodes imply potential for stratigraphic trapping. There is also potential for stratigraphic traps to form in areas where depocentre have been inverted such as the inverted half graben.

Turnover and profit up at Shepherd Neame pubs
20/09/2017 - 10:59
Shepherd Neame, Britain's oldest brewer and operator of over 300 pubs, has announced an increase in company turnover and pre-tax profit over the last year.
Written by James Callery
The yearly results, which covers the 52 weeks ended 24 June 2017, showed turnover up 11.7% to £152.2 million and underlying profit before tax up 8% at £11.2m.
Underlying operating profit was up 7.2% on last year at £15.3 million and basic earnings per ordinary share were up 8% to 59.1p.
Managed pub like-for-like sales grew by 8.1% and own beer volume grew by 3.9%, both figures ahead of the market rate according to chief executive, Jonathan Neame.
He said: "This has been a good year for the company with strong underlying performance and some great acquisitions that add real value to the company.
"We are pleased with the strategic and operational progress made in all areas of our business.
"We are mindful of the political and economic backdrop, but our strategic focus on investing for the long term, innovating and consistently delivering great pub environments and outstanding service for our customers will stand us in good stead.
"We remain confident that the actions that have been taken and our relentless pursuit of excellence will continue to deliver good long-term returns for our shareholders."
Shepherd Neame acquired 14 pubs in the last year at a cost of £24.8 million and sold 15 for £5.9 million.
Over the last years, the company has acquired 22 pubs and sold 49, which Neame says has driven average EBITDAR per managed pub up by +30.5% and per tenanted pub up by +25.4%.

Considering Matty McKibben's heart was pulverized when he caught his girlfriend, Jenna Hamilton, kissing Collin at her surprise birthday party, we have to hand it to him: He's handling the "Awkward" breakup pretty well. He's assured Jenna he doesn't hate her, refuses to gossip about her and, despite his attempt to move on with a new girl, is still hopeful that they'll work things out. Jenna, however, has essentially spit on her old relationship by dismissing Matty, and insists on forcing-feeding Collin to her friends and family, even though they're resistant. So, does she have the right to date Collin so openly and expect her friends to hop on board, or should she be a little bit more discreet?
Tamara and Ming were clear from the get-go that Jenna made their group of friends a liiiittle bit uncomfortable by throwing Collin into the mix so quickly -- especially when Matty was in no position to be in the same room as Jenna's new beau. Tension ultimately came to a head when the formerly inseparable friends couldn't get to Jenna's barbecue on time, and when Jenna took their apparent no-show as a slight against her new relationship, she reamed T and Ming out for not advocating for her happiness.
Tell us what you think: Does Jenna need to keep Collin under the radar while the Jatty wounds heal, or is she a-ok to date him as proudly as she pleases?

Book Review: Cold Days by Jim Butcher
That being said, readers of the series will know from Ghost Story (book 13) that Harry Dresden, my favorite wizard for hire, is not only alive but also carrying the title of Winter Knight and in the service of Mab. However, he is still the Harry we know and love, just with the added challenge of battling the instincts of Winter, which urge him to do things more in line with Mab's ideals than his own. Harry's first job as Winter Knight after surviving Mab's idea of rehabilitation just happens to be killing an immortal. Of course, nothing is that simple in Harry's life. Not only does he need to do the impossible by killing an immortal, he also is beset by new enemies, discovers a larger plot to release evil and destruction on the world, and the knowledge that anyone around him could be tainted by evil. Just an ordinary day in the life of Harry Dresden.
If you love the Dresden Files series, you will continue loving the series with Cold Days. Harry's desire to save the people around him, and the world in general is still going strong. His wit, one liners, and self-deprecation is still going strong as well. Several of our favorite characters make appearances, and we get a glimpse at just how complex the world that Butcher has built through this series has become. I do not want to give away any of the details- because it would just take away some of the joy that comes with reading it and being blindsided along with Harry. The stakes are rising, and I will not lie, the ending of Cold Days only makes things more complicated and left me incredibly eager to see what awaits Harry (and readers) in book 15.
Dresden fans that were disappointed with Ghost Story, have no fear! Cold Days is one of the best books in the series. Read and enjoy, just make sure that you leave yourself enough time to read in just a couple sittings, or you will be greatly annoyed with necessary interruptions. And again, if you have not yet enjoyed any of the books in this series, go get Storm Front now and start reading!

February 28th 2016 comments being left on MP Group page, interesting!
Rumor has it that they are looking to have the MP group page shut down for the following comments? All I have to say is ROTFLMAO, tell it to Drew Tyler, you know the fella who can do the same without recourse, not so funny now is it? – The ONLY DIFFERENCE is I can care less knowing that Drew is full of it!
This must be the TRUTH?
It befuddles me that the Mansfield NJ has removed comments from the Sunday story regarding the Republican Sheriff Primary Race. When questioned by Weikle Mansfield regarding removal of comments – Mr.Ted Daniels states in response "Your series of "unsubstantiated accusations" against Mr.Sheldon were "inappropriate personal attacks", particularly when they are made under an anonymous pseudonym".
You Mr.Daniels as the Editor of the Mansfield News Journal are protecting a man from "inappropriate personal" attacks and this is the very man and his regimen that have hurt their own. I would ask how much more substantiated do you want when there is video of the Incumbent firing someone with Cancer; case numbers have been sited; properties listed. It's documented that the Incumbent has not paid certain taxes. A "regular" person would be blasted by the News Journal for these issues. Mr.Daniels you are sitting on information that the public should be aware of. You have printed nothing in regards to what you are holding onto. You have not responded to visitor posts on the Mansfield News Journal Online; you have not responded to your female reporters being referred to as "bitches". You have not reported on EEOCs that you are holding information on. What else are you holding onto that the public has the right to know when they go to the polls during the primary.
The Mansfiield News Journal still Rotten to the Core after all these years.
Daniels, Ted E <firstname.lastname@example.com>
2:48 PM (2 minutes ago)
to Mark, Ryan, MNCO-ICONLINE, Melissa, me, hfackler
Weikel Mansfield:
You asked why your comments were deleted from the Sunday story on the Republican primary race.
According to our Terms of Service, "We reserve the right at all times, in our sole discretion, to screen content submitted by users and to edit, move, delete, and/or refuse to accept any content that in our judgment violates these Terms of Service or is otherwise unacceptable or inappropriate, whether for legal or any other reasons."
Your series of unsubstantiated accusations against Mr. Sheldon were inappropriate personal attacks, particularly when they are made under an anonymous pseudonym.
I hope this explains our position.

Reference Joe Masi purchases: From 2011-2014 (Masi was hired into the Sheldon regime in 2011), Joe Masi purchased land and a home totally $521,000.00 according to the auditor's website and his building permit. Half a million dollars in a 3 year period?? Sheldon and his admin are using the department FOJ funds as their personal ATM's. Erika Spicer is padding the books for them also. She transferred from the auditor's office so she has contacts there and won't be questioned. However, Sheldon also owes $3,701.00 in back taxes on his rental properties.
Chris Goldmann to Steve Sheldon for Sheriff

Regarding Sheldon's rental properties and phony straw mortgages with businessman, Willis Prout. Most of these are through Sheriff sales:
Willis Prout of Larchwood Road, Mansfield, acquired eight properties for a total of $264,000, including commercial buildings. associated with the bankruptcy involving David R. Sharrock, transactions with a receiver for The Bissman Co. and sheriff's sales.
He picked up four parcels at 175-193 N. Main St. formerly belonging to The Bissman Co. for $25,000 and bought 214 Lexington Ave. from a receiver for The Bissman Co., but also purchased residential properties.
During 2014, he added to his existing holdings of rental homes on Dunbilt Court, a small dead-end road just off Lexington Avenue, on the near south side.
"The big joke is, 'Willis, when are you going to have it petitioned to rename it Prout Court?'
Prout currently holds nearly 80 properties around the county.

Sheriff, were you notified in early 2014 that Capt. James P. Sweat was under an active criminal investigation by a state law enforcement agency regarding his position as the Monroe Township Fire Chief? After being notified, did you promote him shortly after without any internal investigation being done? And wasn't he questioned again, in 2015 during a federal inquiry into some of his activities?
Chris Goldmann to Steve Sheldon for Sheriff

Can you explain the recent EEOC complaint? It wasn't just one female, but three female deputies filed. And, you terminated one, Paige Wagner, shortly after the complaint was filed but claimed it had nothing to do with the complaint. Do you agree that statement doesn't sound on the up and up, and do you feel you and your administration treat all of your employees equally? Furthermore, after the EEOC complaint, veteran deputy and experienced investigator, Stacy Dittrich, was rejected for an open position in the METRICH Task Force. The position was given to an inexperienced 18-month new deputy with no experience. Are you going to say that has nothing to do with the EEOC complaint either? How many times are you going to deny that?
Steve Sheldon for Sheriff
Re-post for any new visitors to the page.
Regarding ABON, it has been suggested that your office conducted its own investigation and was promptly shut down after it was discovered that there was malfeasance on your part. It was further alleged that you used the excuse of Capt. Bosko's involvement to do that. There are people saying that is simply not true. Can you explain?
Can you provide legitimate documentation that Major Joe Masi is a, certified, State of Ohio Peace Officer? Including proof of all of his state mandated update courses for the years 1989-2012?
Friends and family of numerous members of the Richland County
Sheriff's Office have stated that the employees refer to Major Joe
Masi, Capt. James P. Sweat, and Capt. Donald Zehner as Tyrants,
Dictators, and Micro-Managers to the highest levels. How do you expect to move forward as a functioning Sheriff's Office when your employees are suffering from such low morale?
Regarding Major Joe Masi, the Northern District Federal Court in
February, 2015 ruled that Masi's actions in interviewing and
testifying in the Glenn Tinney case (in which an innocent man was
imprisoned for 25-years) Masi's actions "…shocked the conscience…" That Masi's actions were "outrageous, extreme, and uncivilized." Former Capt. Eric Bosko was placed on the Giglio list for much less. How can you justify having someone that a Federal Court ruled untrustworthy and borderline criminal running your day to day operations? How can you justify having someone like Masi instructing new officers in investigations?
Can you explain the recent EEOC complaint? It wasn't just one female, but three female deputies filed. And, you terminated one, Paige Wagner, shortly after the complaint was filed but claimed it had nothing to do with the complaint. Do you agree that statement doesn't sound on the up and up, and do you feel you and your administration treat all of your employees equally? Furthermore, after the EEOC complaint, veteran deputy and experienced investigator, Stacy Dittrich, was rejected for an open position in the METRICH Task Force. The position was given to an inexperienced 18-month new deputy with no experience. Are you going to say that has nothing to do with the EEOC complaint either? How many times are you going to deny that?
It has been widely observed by citizens and other members of law
enforcement agencies that members of your administration are driving brand-new, fully loaded and equipped SUV's. It is clearly obvious that the deputies vehicles are antiquated, broken down, in comparison to other agencies. Its also been alleged that vehicle repair requests such as brake replacements has been denied by your administration. Your administration has told deputies that the commissioners won't allow those vehicles for road patrol. Are you not the Sheriff? Since when do the commissioners tell you what you can use your own vehicles for? And lastly, how can you explain all of this to the taxpayers of this county?
Regarding your administration's salaries, can you explain how those administrators can put in for 8-hours of vacation, but yet accrue 8-hours in overtime on the same day. Can you also explain the numerous hours of salaried employee, Major Masi, putting in for overtime on weekends while he is "reviewing cases at his home." Is there no oversight?
In December, 2015, Major Joe Masi and Lt. Jimmy Myers of the RCSO Jail–a non-sworn position, attended a bomb training school in Las Vegas for an entire week at the taxpayers expense. When there is a shortage of deputies, a lack of reliable vehicles, and low morale, how do you justify approving this? What does a non-sworn Jail Lt. need a bomb training school for? Do you agree that looks a little nefarious to the county taxpayers? A fully paid trip to Las Vegas??
Sheriff, do you feel that Joe Masi's marriage to a member of the
Richland County Prosecutor's Office has risen to the level, by their
actions, as unethical? To be clear, is it fair to the deputies to say
"A complaint has been filed against you," when in fact it was his wife complaining to him at home about certain deputies?
Sheriff, were you notified in early 2014 that Capt. James P. Sweat was under an active criminal investigation by a state law enforcement agency regarding his position as the Monroe Township Fire Chief? After being notified, did you promote him shortly after without any internal investigation being done? And wasn't he questioned again, in 2015 during a federal inquiry into some of his activities?
Sheriff, it is widely known throughout the law enforcement community that Major Joe Masi, Captain James P. Sweat, and Captain Donald Zehner are untrustworthy. Other law enforcement agencies simply want as little dealings with them as possible. How can you possibly move forward as Sheriff of Richland County and regain the trust of its other law enforcement agencies and work together in the future?
Sheriff, how many current union grievances do you have filed against you right now? As the Sheriff, aren't you supposed to know?
Sheriff, how many active lawsuits are pending against the Richland
County Sheriffs Department right now? As the Sheriff, aren't you
supposed to know?
Sheriff, regarding your payroll clerk, Erika Spicer, that you pay
$55,000.00 per year, that deputies claim is administering discipline
and ordering command staff around, as tabloidish as this may be, it is well known among law enforcement that your deputies and other members of law enforcement have evidence of her driving and coming into work highly intoxicated, and performing sexual acts on members of your command staff in her office that sits directly next to yours. If you are provided with this evidence, what actions would you take against Erika Spicer and those command staff members? Is this what you would consider a professional working environment?
Sheriff, can you explain Detective Chuck Metcalf's continued
employment with RCSO after pleading guilty to federal crimes?
Sheriff, when Capt. Eric Bosko was repeatedly called into question
regarding numerous investigations, you claimed to have no knowledge of what he was doing. In one instance, you claimed to be home taking a nap on a weekday at noon. This particular instance resulted in a six-figure pay out by the county to settle the lawsuit. As the sitting Sheriff, why didn't you fire him? He claims you ordered every investigation he was a part of. It stands to reason that might be true? I mean, if you have a rogue Captain out doing unauthorized investigations, why wouldn't you fire him? Unless you ordered those investigations?
Sheriff, you recently posted a "music video" on your website showing deputies and a member of the Mansfield News Journal dressed in deputy attire. Did you order these deputies from training ,and one, who was investigating a burglary, to partake in this video for your campaign?
Sheriff, your payroll clerk, Erika Spicer, is repeatedly posting
promotional posts for you campaign during work hours on Facebook. She is actively campaigning for you during work hours payed for by tax payers. Some may say this is considered theft in office. Her salary per the Richland County Auditors Office is more than your deputies are making. Deputies are complaining that their time off and pay are not correct. Is this ethical? Shouldn't her job be first priority?
Sheriff, were you given credible information by the Mansfield Police
Department that a private fencer had taken over once ABON was raided? Did you disregard the information that this man was buying numerous stolen items and selling illegal drugs because his relative was an outspoken victim of a sheriff employee and you didn't want the bad press?
Recently, Major Joe Masi sent a citizen complaint of 2 officers to the Richland County Prosecutor's Office for review of criminal charges. They were declined as there was no basis to the complaint and the complainant is no longer cooperating. Major Masi then ordered a junior sergeant to serve the officers paperwork and secretly record them in hopes of garnering evidence that would be suitable for criminal charges. No Miranda was read and no warrant was signed by a federal judge authorizing him to make that order.The sergeant did not comply with this order, knowing it was unethical–bordering criminal, and received a 1 day suspension. You were aware of this order and signed off on it. Can you explain?
Sheriff, your current Major has been discredited by a federal court,
your patrol captain has previous convinctions of OVI and
falsification, your support captain has already been the subject of 2
state and federal inquiries, and your former captain was discredited
and placed on the federal Giglio list. Are these good choices for the
citizens of Richland County? Don't the citizens deserve better?
Chris Goldmann to Steve Sheldon for Sheriff
February 7 at 11:00pm ·
Masi and Sheldon routinely referred to Kaitlyn Durbin and Lou Whitmire as "fucking bitches." Durbin was seen several times parking in the handicap space at the Sheriff's office. Sheldon and Masi put out an order that deputies are to enforce the parking of the sheriff's office. Sheldon pulled several deputies aside and told them if they see Durbin's car to take a picture of it and, "write that bitch a ticket!" The parking order is still hanging in the roll call room.
Steve Sheldon for Sheriff received the following in a private message:
"Captain Chris Blunk the Jail Administrator was arrested by [the] Galion Police Dept in [the] early 2000's for Felony Child Endangerment. It was later dropped to a First Degree Misdemeanor. Chris was driving down the road when he pulled over and left, at that time, his 3 year old daughter in some unknown persons yard. He tore off all his clothing and ran through a cornfield completely naked because Jesus himself was out there calling to him. He was on probation for 5 years because Sheriff Stierhoff made a deal with the Prosecutor in Crawford County that Chris would relinquish his Peace Officer Certificate. Chris returned to work and was later promoted by Sheldon to Jail Administrator. His case file has been expunged. As far as I was aware any crime against a child could never be expunge[d] but his case is no longer in Crawford's records. BCI still has it"
The page received the following question in a private communication to be posted:
It's been indicated that the current Sheriff has a gambling problem, supposedly deep in debt. He's not really looking so great recently in the eye of the public. It's been documented in social media what's going on. Metrich makes a big "sweep" on gambling sites. It's close to the primary. What better way to look good in the eyes of the public then to possibly aide in turn over of gambling sites. Another incident like the Trimble Rd arrests ???? Just an outsider looking at it from the outside. Just a thought.

Cheech L Lang I don't have his license plate but he drives a black truck. Most likely not his own. There's only 2 cops I trust from Mansfield PD. If this is going to put my life in danger for turning him in then I'd rather not describe the truck I've seen him in

J. Steve Sheldon you indicate you worked at ABON because you "have a huge interest in coins and antiques"?
Mr.Sheldon, is it true that you purchased coins and gold from many former inmates who said they "found" the items?
Were these same items then taken to a Mansfield Jewelry store where they were melted down for gold?
If you have such a "huge interest' in coins, why would you buy them just to turn around and have them melted down for their precious metal content?
I would assume that this was a great way of getting rid of evidence?

Ex-Minnesota Deputy Convicted In Drug Theft
STILLWATER (AP) — A former Washington County sheriff's deputy has been convicted in the theft of drugs from a locked pharmaceutical dropbox.
Jurors on Monday convicted 43-year-old Ricky Harry Gruber of Oakdale of misconduct by a public employee and illegal possession of prescription drugs.
While he was employed as a deputy, Gruber was seen on hidden surveillance in February removing the secure drug drum from the pharmaceutical drop-off box at the sheriff's office.
Gruber was seen bringing the bin back 13 minutes later. He was then arrested.
Gruber admitted stealing the key to the secure area and making a copy for his own use. He admitted taking prescription drugs from the drum and placing them in a red bag in his office.
Sentencing is set for Jan. 10.

Fine actors in television and movies are few and far between. Mark Rylance is, in my opinion one exception.
In the series "Wolf Hall" available on Amazon Prime, Rylance shines and draws one into his portrayal as Thomas Cromwell, both hero and villain. As a villainous hero prone to pride and riddled with fear, he fits the bill.
Rylance maintains electric tension of a man in constant turmoil. Torn between an insecure standing in his position and self-grandiosity, he teeters on the edge of hopeful friendship with those born into the true status of social acceptance and freedom and daily insecurity of his ultimate downfall.
Paired in juxtaposition to doomed "Queen" Anne Boleyn, he refuses to see that he marches toward the same fate.
Boleyn and Cromwell are two peas in a pod, scratching and clawing for self-aggrandizement through manipulation of the king. Thinking themselves smarter, better equipped and full of charisma, they underestimate a strong "god-anointed" Tudor of royal blood and his ruthless advisers. Boleyn receives her recompense in the series, Cromwell's comes later.
Claire Foy numbers among fine character actors in this film of which I look forward to Part Two. Accolades to Masterpiece Theatre, Rylance and Foy!

Chinami Oka is a female student at the university and a member of the Film Club. Her favorite hobby is to film everyone with her camera. She calls it the "Okamera".
Appearance Edit
Chinami has pretty, long salmon hair with large blue eyes. She is seen wearing a long green shirt and big, blue, puffy pants with red to brown socks with brown shoes. She also has pretty red cheeks and is usually always seen blushing. Chinami has pale skin, she's fairly skinny and short in height. Later, she chose to cut her hair on Episode 19, possibly to look more like Linda's hair.
Personality Edit
Chinami has a childish behavior for a college student (and she looks like one as well). She is very kind-hearted and always happy to get new friends. She doesn't really get mad so easily. For example, when Koko Kaga got mad at her because she was hanging out with Mitsuo Yanagisawa and said really mean things, instead of getting mad at her, Chinami started crying which shows how she doesn't get angry easily, and it also shows how sensitive she is. Chinami is very popular because she is sweet and open to people. Though, it is revealed that she likes to keep her personal feelings of love to herself.
Plot Edit
Chinami Oka is a freshman law student at Banri's university. She shares the same required English class as Mitsuo Yanagisawa and is also a member of the film club. Chinami is a very friendly and smiley girl, and it takes a lot to make her upset. She appears to 'collect' good looking people, wanting to become friends with them, because, as she tells Banri, "Looking at pretty people makes me happy!". Chinami is a very caring person, always looking out for other people, even if she doesn't know them. She makes her first appearance in Episode 1 of the anime series when Mitsuo takes off with Kōko Kaga in pursuit. In Mitsuo's efforts to run from Koko, he scatters Banri Tada's work notes across the floor. When Banri goes to gather them up from the floor, Chinami offers to help, instantly reflecting her kind heart.
Early on in the series, Kōko Kaga develops a strong dislike for Chinami after she is seen talking with Mitsuo (or 'cheating', as Kōko puts it). This dislike for Chinami is worsened when Mitsuo tells Kōko that they can never be together, and also when Mitsuo announces that he will confess to Chinami that he loves her. Despite all the verbal abuse Kōko fires at Chinami, she still remains smiley and friendly, still hopeful that she and Kōko can be friends. Later on, the relationship between Chinami and Kōko is patched up, and they gradually make their way to becoming best friends.
When Mitsuo confesses his love for Chinami in front of everyone to prove a point to Kōko, Chinami's reply is simply, "What? Don't be stupid'." It's later explained that Chinami didn't believe that to be a proper confession, especially as Mitsuo blurted it out to prove a point to Kōko. Despite Mitsuo's efforts to avoid Chinami out of pure embarrassment and after feeling humiliated, Chinami wants to be friends again, and forget what happened. The group end up going to a theme park together, and there, the friendship between Chinami and Mitsuo is fixed. Chinami doesn't realise exactly how she feels about Mitsuo until she discovers that he likes Koko. From that point on, Chinami begins to act differently and quite out-of-character, especially around Mitsuo. On their car journey to the beach, Chinami acts quite 'standoffish' (as Mitsuo puts it) towards Mitsuo when he asks about her troubles with moving to a new apartment. She plays it off as nothing big, acting like she doesn't know what he's talking about, and after Mitsuo confusedly continues to ask about it, Chinami's reply is, "Oh! I didn't think it was anything worth telling you."
In Episode 19, Chinami even has her hair cut short, possibly in an effort to be more like Koko, not wanting to lose Mitsuo to Koko. For the first time, we see an angry Chinami in Episode 19, when she stumbles upon Banri. To Banri's bewilderment, she waits then scolds him, acting completely out of character. When Banri says, "Don't you think you're acting a little weird? There's no reason for you to be so upset" Chinami only gets angrier, hinting at Chinami's underlying feelings for Mitsuo. With fury in her eyes, Chinami stands up ready to walk off, her only words left for Banri being, "You're the worst!"
When Chinami arrives early at Banri's place when she's invited for dinner, she tells Banri that when she saw him and Koko hanging out, she wasn't upset; she was thinking, "Yes! Now Mitsuo won't love Koko anymore!". She tells Banri that she loves Mitsuo. She realized that she doesn't want Mitsuo to with someone else. Chinami then tells Banri that she regretted cutting her hair, after having it so long for her entire life.
Quotes Edit
- "Looking at pretty people makes me happy!" - Chinami talking to Banri about Mitsuo and Kōko
- "I guess she's a little unusual." - Banri's first thoughts when meeting Chinami
- "Oh, don't call me 'Oka-san', that's what people call my mom." - Chinami to Banri on the Film Club's welcoming party
- "Ah... youth." - Chinami on the shakey relationship between Mitsuo and Kōko
- "Don't be stupid" - Chinami Oka to Mitsuo Yanagisawa after his confession at a party
- "You're the worst!" - Chinami to Banri (Episode 19) defending Mitsuo when she gets the wrong idea upon stumbling across Linda and Banri talking alone
- Oka Chinami has a hobby of filming and making videos using her own camera, due to the fact that she is one of the members at the film club, naming her own camera as "Okamera", a portmanteau name from both her own name (Oka) and her camera (-mera).
- Chinami Oka is seemingly the only character that changes her hair on quite a regular basis. Her usual hairstyle is naturally long over her shoulders and back, with her signature fringe and bangs. She has also had it up in a double bun (still with her fringe), and when the group go to the beach, she has it in loose twin ponytails forwards over her shoulders.
- Despite Kōko's denial that she and Chinami are friends, it's suggested that they are in fact best friends, after Kōko helps Chinami with moving, tries on swimsuits with her, and stays overnight (like a sleepover).
- Chinami has her hair cut short in Episode 19, which could suggest she tried to make her hair more like Linda's short hairstyle, as this is what she believes Yana likes but she later regrets the decision of cutting her hair.

In your quest to save for retirement, tax-favored retirement accounts are valuable tools to help you set aside and grow your money. But eventually, all good things must come an end, and regardless of whether you want to, you need to start taking money out of your traditional IRAs and 401(k) accounts. If you don't, the IRS will gladly sock you with a penalty you simply can't afford to pay. And with the recent volatility we've seen in the stock market, you need to make sure your retirement investments will produce enough income to give you the cash that the IRS makes you take out.
Dealing with the RMD
Millions of workers have enjoyed the benefits of retirement saving through IRAs and 401(k)s. When you set money aside in one of these tax-favored retirement accounts, you generally get to fund it with pre-tax money -- meaning that you either get a deduction on your tax return (in the case of IRAs) or have that money excluded from your taxable income on your paystub (for 401(k) accounts). That's a huge boost that often gives you thousands in tax savings year in and year out.
Even better, once your money is inside your retirement account, you get to defer paying taxes on the income it generates throughout your lifetime. The only time you'll pay tax on a traditional IRA or 401(k) is when you take money out of your account. That's why most people try to leave money inside their retirement accounts as long as they can.
When lawmakers created IRAs and employer retirement plans, they knew that taxpayers wouldn't want to pay taxes any sooner than they had to. So they included provisions in the laws that govern retirement accounts to force people to take their money out under certain conditions, regardless of whether they actually needed the money. These required minimum distributions apply to two groups of people: accountholders who will be age 70 1/2 or older at the end of 2011, or those who inherited IRAs and weren't eligible to do a spousal rollover into their own accounts.
What's the deal?
Once you know that you have to take an RMD, the hard part is calculating it. Each year, you have to take out a fraction of your total traditional retirement account assets. That fraction is determined by your life expectancy and will change every year, but for those in their 70s, the required withdrawal is about 4% to 5% of your retirement portfolio. By the time you're in your 90s, that figure can approach or exceed 10%.
And worst of all, if you don't take your RMD, the IRS hits you with a 50% penalty on the amount you should have taken. So you simply have to find a way to come up with the cash.
Financing those distributions is where dividend stocks come in. If you want to take your RMDs without selling stock, then you need stocks that will pay you enough income to cover the RMD.
Fortunately, those who've just started having to take RMDs have plenty of good choices to get them into the 4% to 5% yield range. Utility stock Duke Energy
Once your RMDs get into the double-digit percentage realm, though, your choices get more limited. Rural telco Frontier Communications
Don't wait
If you have to take an RMD, you have until the end of the year to do it. But with the end of the year often getting hectic, think about doing it now rather than procrastinating. With half your distribution on the line, you can't afford to mess this up.

(SportsNetwork.com) - The Arizona Coyotes look to finally play the role of spoiler by snapping a club record-tying losing streak on Thursday evening when they take on the Vancouver Canucks.
The Coyotes are winless since Feb. 9 in Chicago, losing 10 straight games in regulation. That is the longest losing streak since the club relocated from Winnipeg and matches 10-game slides by the Jets that were posted in 1993-94 and 1980-81.
The first 10-game slide in franchise history actually came as part of a 30- game winless span for the Jets, who lost 23 games with another seven ties over a run posted during the club's second season in existence.
Arizona was dealt a 4-1 loss by the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday, with Tobias Rieder scoring and Mike Smith making 31 saves in the Coyotes' first game since making several moves ahead of Monday's trade deadline.
"It has been a little different with the new guys in the room, but we'll try to do our best and finish the season strong," said Rieder.
Tuesday's setback came in the opener of a six-game homestand and was the Coyotes' ninth in a row as the host. They have not won in Arizona since Jan. 8.
The Coyotes look to snap that home slide and deal the Canucks a second loss in a row. Vancouver is coming off a 6-2 defeat to the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday.
Henrik Sedin posted two goals, both off assists by Daniel Sedin, for the Canucks, who had won three of four coming into the game. Henrik Sedin's two tallies put him past 900 career points.
Jacob Markstrom's first start of the year was short-lived as he gave up three goals on four shots in just under eight minutes of work. Eddie Lack stopped 23-of-24 shots in relief, with the Sharks scoring twice into an empty-net.
"I felt great coming in and getting a start like that is a bit of a nightmare," said Markstrom. "I want all three (goals) back."
The loss has the second-place Canucks only three points ahead of Calgary, Los Angeles and San Jose in the Pacific Division.
Lack had made three straight starts since Ryan Miller went down with a right knee injury and will likely start tonight looking to shake off some tough luck versus the Coyotes. He is 0-2-0 against them in two starts despite yielding only two goals on 55 shots.
The Coyotes and Canucks have split the first two contests of their five-game season series -- both in Vancouver. Arizona notched a 5-0 win on Nov. 14, but Vancouver countered with a 7-1 victory on Dec. 22.
Arizona has won three in a row at home in this series, including back-to-back 1-0 decisions.
Smith is 6-4-2 versus the Canucks with a 2.45 goals against average, .923 save percentage and two shutouts in 13 games.

With God on their side...
The BBC reports US attack on 'rebel' stronghold. Alternatively, over on ZNet David Edwards describes the media manipulation in legitimising mass slaughter. Rumsfeld on the BBC demonstrates once again his crass ignorance (or barefaced lies...take your pick) by describing the people in Falluja as remnants of the Saddam Hussein regime. In reality Falluja was somewhere Saddam was deeply detested because of his attacks on the clerics... and it was one of the least likely places Saddam followers would have sought refuge. The reality, which the invasion forces have seemingly failed to grasp, is that Iraqis may well have welcomed democracy, but Allawi's CIA regime is not democracy.
Meanwhile, the Israeli press scrapes a barrel that Murdoch will no doubt dip his sticky spoon into before long.

DeHunan Hotpot Restaurant @Fahrenheit 88
Dining at DeHunan Hotpot has taken me and my family to a fiery and spicy gastronomical dining experience, a special culinary journey of Hunan cuisine tasting DeHunan's scrumptious spread of Hunan menu. We were looking forward to some tantalising hot spicy flavours and they really did an excellent job with their spread of authentic Hunan dishes, all specially cooked and prepared by their chefs from Hunan Province, China.
Currently with 2 outlets in neighbourhood of Kuchai Lama and Bandar Puteri Puchong. DeHunan Hotpot, has finally branched into the city centre with a latest branch newly opened and strategically located at Fahrenheit 88 Jalan Bukit Bintang Kuala Lumpur.
Spice and Fire - I think is the best way to describe the vibrant flavours of traditional Hunan cuisine. Also known as Xiang cuisine, stems from a province that has an age-old reputation as 'Land of Fish and Rice'. Its also one of the Eight Great Traditions of Chinese gastronomy. You can find out more about the interesting info about Hunan cuisine from here
De Hunan has a private room that can serve up to 12 customers per room. Perfectly suitable for business entertainment, family gathering, birthday celebration, event organizing and so forth. With a seating capacity of 266 pax, the restuarant is a well designed to provide customer a private dining feel while savouring the delicious Hunan cuisines with family or friends.
Lovely Décor of Chillies
Spacious Contemporary Dining Space
I was pretty impressed with their spacious, comfortable and contemporary dining interior. Brightly lit hotpot restaurant, decorated with pretty cute bright red chillies hangings against light wood panel walls.
There's also a window seating area, from which you can enjoy your meal with the view of the ever thriving Jalan Bukit Bintang while savouring the mouth-watering selections on the menu. A great place with cozy and casual environment for you and your friends to dine in.
Diners at DeHunan Hotpot must sample their tasty appetisers ranging from some healthy treats to some sinful but delicious treats like the pickled cucumber, seaweed, foo chok and pickled pig ears. Do note that appetisers like these differ from day to day, so not to be boring for returning customers.
Pickled Pig Ears, Seaweed, Foo Chok, Pickled Cucumber
RM 3.50 per serving
( From Top Left clockwise )
Really refreshing and good-tasting starters to open up your taste buds with cold, spicy and sour dishes. My favourite was the cold and crunchy zuchini, extremely addictive till I can finish the whole bowl on my own. The tofu and seaweed were not bad either.
Hunan cuisine is notable for its liberal use of chilli peppers, shallots and garlic which give the dishes a hot spicy flavours, fresh aroma and deep colour. During our dinner review to savour some of Chef Li Zhen Fang's toothsome dishes, we started off with Hunan Farmer Style Fried Pork.
Hunan Farmer Style Fried Pork
Hunan Farmer Style Fried Pork, a simple and delicious dish, which comes with a fragrant spicy flavour and full of wok-hei. The green chillies and garlic were cooked with marinated pork belly while the nutty flavour comes from the deep-fried green chillies seeds that was cooked together in this dish. Loved this dish to bits, will definitely come back for more.
Deep Fried Spicy Chicken with Dried Chili
Next, one of the highlights on their menu is the Deep Fried Spicy Chicken with Dried Chili. Juicy and tender chicken thigh marinated with beer, chinese wine (fah tiew cao) and salt were deep fried before frying with dry chillies till fragrant. Topping it up with sesame seeds bring out aromatic flavours, seriously this is another dish you must try.
Intimating dish to try by the sight of the large portion of dry chillies in the dish, but don't worry, it's not as hot or spicy as it looked. One of the most popular Hunanese dishes, it is easy to see why, as this seemingly uncomplicated dish is a hothouse of flavours.
Stir Fried Beijing Cabbage
Their menu also offers less 'hot' dishes such as this simple Stir Fried Beijing Cabbage with Pork Belly. A complete dish with good portion of vegetables and meat, the Beijing cabbage leaves are plucked by hand and not cut for some special reason and cooked on high heat with marinated pork belly. The crunchy fresh vegetables were cooked "al dente", full of wok-kei with a smoky flavour. It is a definite favourite at the table.
Fried Home made Beancurd with Salted Egg
Creamy with melt-the-mouth sensation, this savoury salted egg and tofu dish was a real winner. No eggs were used as we were told, Chef Li's expertise in Hunanese cooking crafts out an authentic and richly-flavoured oriental delicacies from just 2 simple ingredients of salted egg and soft tofu. My young son really enjoyed eating this dish with a delicate texture and it went well with the a bowl of hot steaming rice.
Uncle Mao Special Braised Pork
Uncle Mao Special Braised Pork as it was named after Mao Zedong, so we assumed it is definitely Uncle Mao's favourite porky dish. Mao was born in Chaochan in Hunan province, thus they decided to name it after him.
With imported pork meat from China, the chunky pork belly are braised and stewed in high pressure cooker with lot herbs and spices resulting into a luscious sinful dish of pork belly in thick dark sauce with rich flavour.
Spicy Skewered Prawns in Hunan style
Hunan Yuen & Yang Steamed Fish Head - 'Ling' Fish
A synonymous Hunan fish dishes to try is the Hunan Yuen & Yang Steamed Fish Head - 'Ling' Fish. With an intense spiciness from the imported Hunan's green chillies, this is one dish that is not recommended for the faint-hearted. The Hunanese are famous for their use of the sharp punch of vinegar-pickled chillies with salt.
Although it looks very appealing and quite colourful with the green chillies, red chillies and scallions used, but the spiciness actually numbs your tongue with a burning sensation to the lips after the diced Hunan green chillies kick in.
Noodles were added to soak up the salty and spicy sauce from the fish dish and eaten together for an overall spicy and fiery tasting.
Sizzling Skewered Lamb
Lamb lovers, do check out these juicy and tender Australian lamb served in skewers. Marinated before being deep fried and topped with a combination of fresh ingredients such as garlic, onion, fresh red chilies and the signature green chillies (xiao mi jiao 小米椒 ).
Following up after the mains dishes, we were treated to some very unique hotpot soups at DeHunan. So if you are craving for a hotpot meal with a dash of yummy goodness, do check out their selections of 4 types of No-MSG soups ranging from fish head soup, pork bone soup, duck soup to chicken soup.
Fish Head Soup
Small Pot - RM 15 (per pax) / Big Pot - RM 40 for 4 pax
Hunan cuisine is noted for pungency, thanks to its generous but judicious use of spices, especially the use of chilli, which is as standard to Hunan cuisine. The special seasoning of Hunan cuisine include soy sauce, tea seed oil, spicy oil, Chinese red pepper, fennel and cassia bark, each of which add its own particular colour and flavour to the cuisine.
Duck Soup
Small Pot - RM 15 (per pax) / Big Pot - RM 40 for 4 pax
Both soups flavour were intense, salty and tends to be oilier. Lots of spices like the star anise and mandarin peels were added to bring out the pungent and robust flavour in the duck soup. For the fish head soup, the spiciness comes from use of three types of chillies to give it a distinct rich yellow colour. Be prepared to thrill your taste buds as authentic Hunan steamboat dining experience has been brought that much closer to you by DeHunan Hotpot.
Choose from the steamboat menu with up to 40 items including fresh seafood, chicken, pork, lamb. beef, meatballs, fish balls, vegetables, mushrooms and more. It was an enjoyable steamboat dinner as there are many types of ingredients to dunk into a flavourful broths, feasting our palate with a rather unique herbal duck soup and spicy fish head soup.
Fresh Tiger Prawns goes well with both flavours
Premium Sliced Australia Beef Fillet (RM 18) & Sliced Pork Shoulder Loin (RM 14)
Golden Sweet Potatoes with Honey
For desserts, the Golden Sweet Potatoes with Honey was pleasant surprise, giving us a break from the hot and spicy dishes. Deep-fried sweet potatoes coated with tapioca flour and custard powder mix was fragrant and crunchy, with soft and warm insides. Bursting with flavour and crisp from the sticky honey coating, these golden sweet desserts would leaves you wanting more!

text: Boys in Robata Pariyan, Afghanistan, playfully splash each other with water from a new, 98-foot-deep well World Vision drilled in their community. Before, villagers depended on water from shallow, salty wells; waterborne disease was rampant, and sickness often caused children to miss school. With another well recently drilled in a neighboring village, more people in this area can experience the joy of clean water. In addition to providing Afghans with safe drinking water, World Vision — which has worked in the country since 2001 — focuses on increasing children's access to education and improving child and maternal health. Now that's something to smile about.

We are looking at a sunny and warmer day today. We'll see partly sunny skies today with a high of 88. It will be windy today, with winds gusting out of the southwest up to 24 miles per hour. We do have a chance of showers and storms overnight tonight with a low of 73 and then a chance of showers and thunderstorms on Friday with a high of 86.
Meanwhile, the National Weather Service in St. Louis says that scattered strong to severe storms are possible thru tonight along and north of Interstate 70. The NWS says the main threats with these storms would be locally damaging winds up to 60 miles per hour and hail to the size of quarters. Locally heavy rainfall will be possible across the area as well.
