Storm Lake native W Craig Hinde wins film award at Atlanta festival
A film about southern Illinois residents written and directed by Storm Lake native W Craig Hinde won a gold medal at the International Film Festival in Atlanta. The film This Land Is was selected from more than 900 films from 20 countries, adding to two prior awards. Hinde is the son of Kenneth and the late Mrs Hinde of Storm Lake. A separate Iowa State extension entomologist advises homeowners on insect intrusions by crickets and millipedes, noting crickets enter homes seeking cooler weather and light, while millipedes hide under doors and cracks. He recommends sweeping up and removing inside pests, and spraying foundations and nearby lawn with a carbaryl mix to deter entry.
