PLYMOUTH â This year, Kim Phuc saw the 40th anniversary of the simple black and white photo that made her famous.
Though no one knows her name, as Phuc says, âthey know âthe girl in the picture.ââ
An Associated Press photographer captured 9-year-old Phuc naked and running from burning blasts of napalm covering her South Vietnam village during the Vietnam War in 1972.
Jason Buzzard, 34 of Plymouth, was sentenced to eight years in federal prison and four years of supervised release in U.S. District Court this week after pleading guilty to charges of Conspiracy to Manufacture Methamphetamine.
The case was the result of an investigation by the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Indiana State Police and the Plymouth Police Department that began in late 2010.
On July 25, 2011, Indiana State Police, South Bend Police and Metro Special Operations raided a South Bend home at the request of the Chicago office of the Drug Enforcement Agency.

Now that Notre Dame is one game away from a national title shot, those who despise the Fighting Irish have entered into what Iâm calling â5 stages of Domer Hater Griefâ.
Stage 1 â Denial
âThere is no way Notre Dame can win a national title.â
With Texas A & Mâs win over Alabama and Stanfordâs dismantling of Oregonâs offense, I say there are no certainties in college football.
Especially this year.
Notre Dame can and will beat whoever the SEC champ is.
Stage 2 â Anger (My personal favorite)
The stars continue to align for Notre Dame football fans. With both No. 1 and 2 losing last week, the Fighting Irish are in the top spot now.
Unbelievable. Who would have thunk it? Not even Brian Kelly until last week when he was the only coach who voted the Irish No. 1. Now, everyone has to.
PLYMOUTH â As technology is used more and more in a school setting, lines between whatâs appropriate and whatâs not in student/teacher relationships can seem blurred. And while schools can monitor what happens on school-owned devices or on the schoolâs Internet network, text messages exchanged between students or teachers can be harder to track. Plymouth Community School Corporation Assistant Superintendent Dan Funston said that PCSC has an âAcceptable Use Policyâ outlining what their teachers can and canât do when it comes to technology.
