Please help keep a cop killer in prison where he belongs!!


Patrolman Jeffrey Manning Phegley was shot and killed in the line of duty on January 21, 1987, while performing a routine traffic stop. He was a Police Office for the Village of Morrow in Warren County, Ohio. Jeff was 22 years old.

A jury convicted Anthony Wayne McIntosh of the murder on August 18, 1987. He was sentence to 15 years to life with an additional 3 years for using a gun during the commission of his crime.

In March of 2000, Inmate McIntosh was granted a parole hearing. The Parole Board recommended that parole be denied and that recommendation was reviewed and upheld by the Central Office Review Board of the Ohio Adult Parole Authority.

Inmate McIntosh is once again coming up for parole.

Delicious Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce Review and Giveaway!


Several months ago I generously received two bottles of Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce and couldn't wait to try them out. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed at all, in fact, I LOVED IT! Seriously!! The first time I used it, I took some plain old chicken breasts, threw them in a glass dish and poured on some of the sauce. I baked them in the oven and they were phenomenal. My kids were raving over the chicken!!! I have since used it as a marinade for burgers (delish) and in place of my normal steak sauce on some grilled steaks (awesome)! The sauce isn't a standard bbq sauce, more like a combo off bbq and steak sauce. I have to admit, I was skeptical to start because I am not a huge fan of bbq sauce. I was pleasantly surprised to find the flavor was not too spicy, but not in the least way bland. It was a perfect combination of flavors that I am sure all of you would love. Also, with the start of summer ~~YEAH!~~ and the grilling season, this is a great time for you to try an alternative to the plain old boring sauces everyone is used too. Country Bob's has generously offered bottles of their All Purpose sauce for me to give away for two lucky winners! This will be the first giveaway I have ever had, so bear with me.

The first spring sale will be March 28, 2009 at the Medina County Fairgrounds and the second sale will be May 2, 2009 at the Cuyahoga County Fairgrounds". They also have a great fundraising idea for your organization!

The Big Red Wagon Kids’ and Maternity Consignment Sale is kicking off 2009 with an exciting program that will help your school or organization do just that! Now your organization and the families that participate can earn extra money!! Here is how it works:1. Have the members of your group gather all the gently used kids and maternity items they no longer need or use.2. The organization leader must contact The Big Red Wagon to register your organization. At this time, you will be given a Code for all of your families to use when registering. 3. Each family must register as a Seller at www.thebigredwagon.com. MAKE SURE THEY PUT THE ORGANIZATION CODE IN THE “REFERRED BY” FIELD. Otherwise, we will not know they are part of the group. 4. Each family is responsible for pricing, tagging, and dropping off the items they would like to sell.5. At the end of the sale, the family would receive 50% of their total sales and the organization would receive 15% of their group’s total sales.6. If the organization can fill at least five, 3 hour volunteer shifts, the organization will receive 25% of their group’s total sales rather than 15%.7. Any family that volunteers for one, 3 hour work shift, will have their $25.00 Seller fee waived and receive 2 Preview Sale passes to shop the night before the sale beginning at 5:00 pm."
