The TVUUC complainant said the group felt like the correspondence was intended as a form of intimidation. Police could not identify the sender, according to the report, nor were those the only negative letters received by a house of worship recently. On Aug. 17, police reported a complaint filed by the First Baptist Church on Main St., saying it had received letters with similar content. ]]>Wed, 20 Aug 2008 22:00:00 -0000http://metropulse.com/news/2008/aug/20/ear-ground-hateful-letters/?partner=RSSstories/ear-to-groundhttp://metropulse.com/news/2008/aug/13/ear-ground-advice-and-counsel/?partner=RSSEar to the Ground: Thomas Baer, who was narrowly defeated in a race for state representative last week, lost his son 20 years ago.

I decided that instead of testing the Expo representatives’ psychic ability (“I expected you to know I’d be redeeming my admission coupon”), I would try out my powers of prognostication on them. So before arriving at the Holiday Inn Select in Cedar Bluff, I took five minutes to focus on what I thought might happen at this gathering of psychics, mediums, astrologers, numerologists, and holistic and natural healers, assembled to speak, sell, and—if you bought separate tickets—give individual readings.
