Another Meth Lab Found in a Walmart

Police in Mentor, Ohio arrested a man after Walmart security called them regarding a shop lifter.

Officers found that he was stealing merchandise and then making a form of meth, all whilst in the store.

The incident occurred less than two weeks after a very similar story took place in St. Louis, Missouri.

There two people were arrested when police were called about a shoplifter, and found them making meth.

In neither case were store employees involved.

Because of the extreme similarities police are warning Walmart and other stores to be extra vigilant for customers acting suspiciously.

High Park Fire Still Growing

Now in it's eleventh day, the High Park Fire is continuing to grow.

It has now burned nearly sixty thousand acres north west of Fort Collins, Colorado.

One person was lost to the fire, and nearly two hundred homes have been burned.

The weekends have calmed down, but temperatures have risen and humidity has dropped.

Smoke from the fire has affected air quality to the point that the Denver metro area was put under an ozone alert.

Around 1,800 fire fighting personnel are involved in trying to gain more than fifty percent containment.

They are being aided by over one hundred engines, seventeen helicopters, and eleven aircraft.

The High Park Fire is the most costly in Colorado history, nearing $15 million in damages.

West Virginia Top Democrats Won't Go to DNC

West Virginia's Democratic Party has announced that three of it's top members will not go the Democratic National Convention this year.

Senator Joe Manchin, Governor Earl Ray Tomblin, and Representative Nick Rahall will all be skipping the 2012 national convention in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Manchin has already publicly stated that he is unsure if he will vote for Obama, and has voted with Republicans on several big issues.

The senator said that he felt his time was better spent focusing on the people of West Virginia's future, rather than this single election.

Tomblin and Rahall have not given any sort of release as to why they aren't going.

Obama is very unpopular in West Virginia, having barely won the state primary against a convicted felon; he also struggled in Arkansas and Kentucky.

Microsoft's Surface

Microsoft has announced it's own tablet computer, Surface.

It is expected to take on Apple's iPad, and conquer a good chunk of the market for the company.

Surface will run on Windows 8, and is only 9.33mm thick, just big enough to fit a USB port.

An SD card slot will also allow further integration with your save information from other devices.

The 10.6", 16:9 screen has been designed to allow viewing from almost any angle.

It's screen intensity will auto adjust depending on the lighting situation.

Equipped with a kickstand, it also comes with a 3mm thick touch sensitive cover that can double as a keyboard, that attaches magnetically.

Not one, but two cameras are on Surface, so you can show either yourself or what you are viewing, without moving it around.

Dual microphones allow for you to sound like you are with the person you're talking to, and stereo speakers make it easy for you to hear.

The casing is top of the line technology to protect the tablet, as well as having a finish that is easy on the eyes and to your touch.

Surface will start off being available in five colors, with more expected to come.

Last year, the company began opening an expected 200 locations in Brazil.

Teenage Ninja Turtles Delayed

Paramount Pictures has announced that the Teenage Ninja Turtles movie will be delayed til May 16, 2014.

It had been scheduled to hit theaters December 2013.

The movie has already taken a lot of heat with Producer Michael Bay's announcement that the turtles would be aliens, instead of mutants.

Bay has responded to the anger, over the change, by promising fans that it'll be worth it.

No word was given on why the delay was taking place.

This is the third movie to be delayed by Paramount, within the last few weeks. G I Joe Retaliation was pushed back nine months and World War Z about six.

50 Mph Winds Striking High Park Fire Area

Braced by winds reaching fifty miles per hour, Colorado's High Park Fire has reached over 55,000 acres.

Nearly 1,700 people, over 100 engines, seventeen helicopters, and eleven aircraft are fighting the fire.

Containment on the fire is nearing forty-five percent, and hopes are to maintain that if not improve upon it, despite the winds.


The high winds have caused near evacuations, and halted the planned returns.


Almost two hundred homes have been damaged or destroyed, and one person lost their life to the fire.

It is being called the most destructive fire in Colorado history, and has cost around ten million dollars.

His son, Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, will now be the Saudi lead in the war on terror.

Sometime in the next week a new heir is expected to be announced.

Remembering: Breed's Hill

June 17, 1775 General Howe orders his twenty-four hundred British troops up Breed's Hill against entrenched colonials.

General William Prescott ordered his militiamen to hold fire until they could see the whites of the British eyes.

At forty yards they unleashed, and broke the British ranks.

Howe ordered another wave forward, and the story repeated.

The third British wave came as the militia was running low on ammo, giving the British a chance to break into the outnumbered colonial line, and forcing the militia to retreat.

British forces chased them to Bunker Hill, and then gave up pursuit. The redcoats had suffered a loss of nearly one thousand troops including ninety-two officers.

Colonial forces may have lost the strategic position, but the battle only built their morale.

It was the last time that the British would attempt a purely frontal assault against American militias.

For some reason history generally remembers it as the battle of Bunker Hill, where the militia were chased to, rather than Breed's where it was fought.
