PALM SPRINGS, Calif. -

Go anywhere in downtown Palm Springs this time of year and you can expect to see lots of people eating outside. Restaurants often pack their patios because of the desert's warm winter temperatures. "We're from Canada so eating outside at this time of year... you don't do," said Bernice MacIntosh, who is visiting from Canada. "So, it's beautiful to just enjoy the nice weather and scenery."

On many of those patios, you can find purses on the ground and hanging on the back of chairs. It's what at least one thief decided to take advantage of this week. "I just heard, 'Oh, he took my purse," and then we just saw a guy running," said Octavio Rivas, a host at Zin American Bistro. "And her husband tried to stop him, but it was too late."

Palm Springs police say the same thief struck again next door at Lulu California Bistro. This time, a good samaritan stopped him. Police arrested 18-year-old Sebastian Sheard for allegedly stealing the purses. Still, it's making some women uneasy when dining out. "You know, it's sad that you just can't have a meal without looking around you," said Amber Pillay. "And not knowing when your purse is going to get stolen."

Police don't believe anyone else is connected to the purse snatchings, but Rivas thinks differently. He says another man walked suspiciously by the restaurant three or four times before the theft. That's why he's warning customers now. "As soon as I see a lady, they put the purse over the chair, I'm like ma'am, please I would suggest to hold your purse," said Rivas.

Palm Springs police tells everyone to be aware of their surroundings and report suspicious activity. One woman offers this advice to protect your purse. "I keep it around my knee or sometimes I just step on it, put it on the inside, anywhere where you can see it or feel it."

Gregory Kloehn can turn just about anything into a home.

The Oakland, Calif. artist spends his summers in Brooklyn, N.Y. living in a dumpster he outfitted with granite countertops, hardwood floors, a rooftop deck, plumbing and a barbecue grill.

But his proudest creations are cozier structures that he gives to homeless people in his neighborhood.

Kloehn's little homeless homes are about the size of a sofa, but they come with a pitched roof to keep out the rain and wheels so recipients can roll them around town.

So far Kloehn has built 10 of the tiny houses using mostly illegally dumped trash that piles up on the streets in a semi-industrial section of West Oakland. The foundation is usually discarded wood pallets to which Kloehn adds windows, a mirror and a cup holder. Several homes are insulated with discarded pizza delivery bags.

Wonder, a homeless woman Kloehn has known for several years, parked her new house on the sidewalk next to her old home, which was primarily of a tarp draped over a couch.

This is the best home I've had in five years, Wonder said as she opened the front door made from a discarded picnic table to reveal the pizza bag insulation. It gets real hot in here, she said.

Kloehn, a 43-year-old transplant from Denver, is a sculptor who got on a housing kick after building his five-unit live-work condominium complex from scratch.

Inspired by the small home environmental movement, Kloehn started making fully functioning houses out of shipping containers. He soon moved on to dumpsters. Then I just started grabbing garbage and making homes out of that, he said.

Kloehn's fascination with nontraditional homes helps support his wife and two children. While he gives away the homeless houses, he sells homes, bars and restaurants that he makes from shipping containers, many of which reside in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn.

Call it the factory that got away.

In 2002, LG Chem was ready to manufacture countertops in Walker County, Ga., according to Sole Commissioner Bebe Heiskell. But the Korean company instead chose Calhoun, Ga., on Interstate 75 about an hour north of Atlanta.

We lost that, because we didnt have any place to put em, Heiskell said. Thats when I started hunting land.

On Thursday, Walker County closed on property that Heiskell has been eyeing all that time: 423 undeveloped acres fronting U.S. Highway 27 in the unincorporated community of Noble that, combined with 40 acres the county already owned, will create space for a 463-acre industrial park.

The county Economic Development Authority bought the land for $4.23 million $10,000 an acre from Joe Swanson and his son David Swanson. Funding came from bonds backed by the special purpose local option sales tax, a levy of 1 cent per $1 of sales that voters renewed in November by a roughly 2-to-1 margin.

Ive been looking at that property since 2003 and really didnt have any way to acquire it until we looked at the [SPLOST money], Heiskell said.

Three manufacturers whose identities county officials decline to disclose have expressed interest in locating there, development authority Executive Director Larry Brooks said.

The largest factory, dubbed Project Eagle by county officials, would provide some 200 jobs at build-out, he said. The second would provide 200 jobs and the third prospect proposes employing 50 people, for a total of 450 jobs if they all pan out.

Were still trying to bring them all across the finish line, Brooks said.

The business park land, now used to graze cattle, is on a rail line that runs alongside Highway 27. It already has sewer service, Brooks said, and super-high-speed fiber-optic Internet cables through the Appalachian Valley Fiber Network out of Rome, Ga.
