By Chris White From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • Mar 31st, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

It now appears that – rather than Monday and Thursday – we will see cold frontal passages through here on Sunday and Wednesday of next week. The one on Sunday won’t have much to work with for rain or storms, but Wednesday’s event looks to have some co…

Last Chance- Come Vote for a New Spotsy GOP Chairman Tomorrow!

By Eric Martin From http://www.spotsygop.com/blogger.html • Mar 31st, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, Spotsylvania

7:00pm sharp (or earlier) come to Riverbend High School on April 1, 2010 and vote for a successor to Chairman Bryce Reeves. A Mass Meeting is sort of like a convention except the votes are counted as one-person, one-vote rather than weighted votes. You…

Mysteries and Conundrums, “exploring the Civil War-era landscape at Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania NMP in an unofficial sort of way.”This is a wonderful resource!



Just Jeans Pt. 1

By K&T Photography From http://kandtphoto.blogspot.com/ • Mar 30th, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, Photography.Local

So one of the series I’m shooting right now is entitled “Just Jeans”. It features topless models wearing just jeans and possibly a pair of shoes. The shoots take place both in studio and outdoors depending on my mood that day and the models level of co…



Brighter and brighter!

By Chris White From http://fburg-weather.blogspot.com/ • Mar 30th, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Things are looking up this week! Yesterday’s forecast somehow missed the period of sunshine we enjoyed during late afternoon, and today’s forecast seems to have overblown the threat of showers as both the upper level low and the surface low – now off …



Driving School Differs Among Judges

By Andrew Flusche From http://www.andrewflusche.com • Mar 29th, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

One of the most difficult parts of my work is handling the nuances of different judges. Virginia law allows judges to reduce, amend, or dismiss a traffic case if the defendant completes a driving school. But each judge gets to determine their own policy of how this is handled. As you can imagine, if people [...]



Moving to tumblr

By Mike From http://blog.mikemorones.com • Mar 29th, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, Photography.Local

For a while I had named this thing ‘Fading the Line’ with the theme being ‘photos from the road’ or my chronicle of my life as a newspaper photographer. As occasionally happens, bloggery fell by the wayside for a variety of reasons but the main one was that I was pretty much tired of looking [...]



Avery Green, All-Area basketball player

By Mike From http://blog.mikemorones.com • Mar 29th, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, Photography.Local, Sports

I recently wrapped up the winter All-Area sportraits. Of the bunch, I was really happy with this one of Avery Green, a basketball player for Courtland High School. He was fun to work with and was interested in the process of his portrait.  As I was writing this and looking at the other 6 photos [...]



No joy today, but NC got hit yesterday

By Chris White From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • Mar 29th, 2010 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

I was correct about the SPC downgrading the severe risk for our area from the “See Text” they had us under. With the more southerly route taken by the upper level low we have remained in a more stable regime than originally forecast, so chasing was no…
