Green Bay Packers beat the Indianapolis Colts, 59-24
Covered the Packers last home preseason game at Lambeau Field last night. It was great to be back on the sidelines. The offense is doing admirably. The defense... it's anybody's guess at this point. Here are some of my best captures from the evening...

Green Bay-area mosque
As national debate grows over a proposed mosque in New York, similar grumblings have taken place recently in Green Bay as a nearby Islamic society sought zoning approval for a new location for their place of worship in an empty building within the city limits. Myself and reporter Scott Williams spent the afternoon at the current Ashwaubenon location: a small, nondescript strip-mall suite.
As lots of attention had being given to opponents, our goal for the piece was to take people into a mosque, put a face to Islam in our community, and give them a voice of explanation through the video below.

Spilling out into the hallway, Muslim men listen to Imam Mohamed Zakarya give a sermon during prayer at Islamic Society of Wisconsin's Green Bay area mosque on Packerland Drive in Ashwaubenon, Wis., Friday afternoon, Aug. 20, 2010. The group looks forward to their new larger mosque on Velp Avenue in Green Bay as their current room cannot hold all those who come to pray.

Arrest
Surprisingly, this spot news shot's been held for a while to be used with a story on arrests... it's a "blast from the past" from late June...
Green Bay Police and medics look at dog-bite wounds on Calvin Bester, 25, of Green Bay, after he was arrested near the 100 blocks of South Quincy and Jackson Streets, after a chase in Green Bay, Wis., early Thursday evening, June 24, 2010. According to Police Capt. Bill Galvin, officers pursued Bester on foot through the neighborhood, as he pulled a screen from a window and entered a residence. He was apprehended a short time later by officers with the help of a police dog, Neo. Bester was charged with criminal trespassing and obstructing an officer.Wednesday, August 11, 2010
