GPS Stolen Sunday from Paul Gore, suspicious teenagers looking into cars midday Monday

My roommate's car was just broken into Sunday between 10am and 2ish pm and the only thing taken was the GPS. Unfortunately she left the holder for it on the window, so that's why they knew to target it. What's crazy is that we've been outside all day, filling a moving truck.

Make sure you don't leave anything in your car to entire passersby, even during broad daylight when people are around. She was parked on the street right in front of the Community Garden close to 52 Paul… Continue

Looking for an article from the JP Gazette?

My searching has not turned up anything...

I'm looking for an article from the JP Gazette that shared the history of the Southwest Corridor. It was published just before the Wake up The Earth festival, and I read it in hard copy then recycled it. I'm trying to use it for a homework assignment.

Does anyone here know how I could get my hands on that (or a similar) article?

Much obliged,

Kendra
