It was a deep, dark afternoon in the lonesome October, when Josey, Wicket and I, off for a stroll in the heart of the forest, came upon an image that made our blood run cold. A ruin stood before us, daring us to enter its dilapidated walls.
The place was heavily locked with a loose chain, but we devised a means of ingress by slipping through the fence doors.
Were we the first to uncover this forgotten place since time immemorial? We didn't know.
We decided we'd been there long enough for our comfort when all of a sudden we heard what sounded like voices. Startled, we departed with haste, only to discover the voices were coming from outside! Ahead of us... just beyond the fence... were a group of teenagers waiting patiently for us to leave because they didn't want to interrupt our photo session.

Donald Trump just told four Freshman Congress women to go back home their own countries. They are all women of color. They are all American citizens, three of whom were born in this country. The entire Republican leadership sat silently after it happened, saying nothing and large numbers of Republican supporters seemed to . . . laugh.
There is a historical tradition of racism in this country. It exists. And telling people to go home the own country is EXACTLY one of the traditional ways racists would attack people of color. Before this President, if any Republican in the last 20 years had said this, they would have been drummed out of the party. Not now. This is a whole new world.
I appear on Press TV out of Iran to discuss. The dynamic is interesting and with growing tensions between the U.S. and Iran, they have continued interested in how Americans talk about this, see this, and deal with it.

10 Obsolete Gadgets That Made Great Gifts Back In 2000 →
Creative's $500 Nomad Jukebox
Creative's $500 Nomad Jukebox (pictured above), was not only "sleek"—at least when compared to a CD Walkman—but "can hold as much music as 150 CDs."
A $350 DVD player from Samsung
The Extiva was a $350 DVD player from Samsung with the Nuon chip, so "you can also play videogames." Not sure which videogames we were referring to there.
Nikon's twisty CoolPix 990
Our pick for digital camera was Nikon's twisty CoolPix 990, 3 million pixels for 1 thousand dollars.
Gateway laptop with 12.1-in. display,
Gateway laptop with 12.1-in. display, 550MHz chip and a year of free AOL was "a great deal" at $1300
Two-way pagers from Motorola
Two-way pagers from Motorola, $180 each, let you send messages back and forth, and came in "four hot colors."
LG's Touchpoint 3000 smartish phone cost $400
LG's Touchpoint 3000 smartish phone cost $400, combined an address book and an organizer, and had one killer app: "Tap someone's name, and it dials for you."
The $300 Iomega HipZip
The $300 Iomega HipZip took little PocketZip magnetic disks instead of flash memory so it was easier to "get with the MP3 revolution"—hooray for obscure proprietary formats that died within a year!
Wireless messaging and an MP3 "attachment."
Cybiko was invented a decade ago but promised to do almost more than what the Peek does today—with wireless messaging and an MP3 "attachment."
PlayStation 2.
"It's near impossible to find this killer game console—and just as hard to find good titles to play on it." The console? PlayStation 2.
Handspring Visor Prism, the great hope of the PDA world
Handspring Visor Prism, the great hope of the PDA world, had a cartridge slot so that you could "turn it into a cellphone, an MP3 player, or a miniature digital camera." Only trouble was when the cartridges started costing more than the $450 PDA.
The whole list is pretty hilarious—I encourage you to pop over and read more. [Time.com]
I apologize for the crappy quality of some of the images—I had to go grab promo shots found out on the web. For some reason, Time didn't preserve our gorgeous photoshoot online. Guess they thought the internet was just a fad.
These gadgets aren't all that went obsolete this decade…

What are the Advantages of a Maryland Trust?
When it comes to estate-planning, the two terms that generally come to mind are wills and trusts. We know we should have one or the other, or perhaps both. For many people, it can be difficult to determine what the best course of action will be to protect their assets. Additionally, because Maryland updated its law on trusts a few years ago, incorporating many provisions from the Uniform Probate Code, it may be necessary for those people who have a trust to reconsider their options. If you are wondering whether you should have a will, a trust, or both, it is best to seek the advice of a competent Maryland trusts attorney to discuss your specific situation.
Living or revocable trusts have many advantages over a simple will. Some of these advantages are:
- Avoiding probate court.
- Greater flexibility on how and when to distribute assets to your beneficiaries.
- The ability to better address unique situations like special needs, a loved one who does not handle money well, addiction, and other issues.
- Peace of mind for the individual who really wants a trust instead of a will.
Is It Worth It to Avoid Probate Court?
Trusts do not go through the probate courts, but trusts usually cost more than a simple will, so you might wonder if avoiding probate court is worth the price difference. Since a trust does not go through the probate court, your heirs often get their assets sooner with a trust. Also, because you do not have to file the trust document with the court for public inspection, you have much more privacy with a trust than with a will.
A judge has to approve your will, which means it must be filed with the court. Anyone who can pull your file at the courthouse could find out what you gave to whom.
There are costs for your lawyer to take your estate through probate court because state laws require multiple detailed filings and potentially costly court hearings. The more you have to pay your lawyer, the less money you have to give to your loved ones. Since trusts do not routinely go through the courts, your lawyer will not have to prepare those filings or attend hearings.
How Are Trusts More Flexible on Distributions than Wills?
With a will, once you have gone through the many stages of the process and the judge approves the final distribution, everyone gets their money and items. A will does not allow you to hand out assets to people over time, a little here and a little there. It is all or nothing with the probate court because they want to wrap up everything and close your case.
On the other hand, your trust can distribute a specified amount to your children when they turn 18, some more when they graduate from college, and more when they finish graduate school or turn 30, for example. Many people worry about an 18-year-old not having the maturity to handle a large lump sum. That is not a concern with a trust, if you space out the payments to give your child some time to grow up a little.
How Do Trusts Handle Unique Situations?
If you have a loved one with special needs, you can set up a type of trust called a special needs trust. These devices carefully provide financial security for your loved one without making him ineligible for government benefits.
Another clever use of living trusts is to provide for that relative whom you adore but who wrestles with her inner demons, such as addiction issues or one financial crisis after the other. You know that if you give her a chunk of money, it will go through her fingers. With a living trust, you can set up a spendthrift provision that dictates, for example, that she will get money for her necessary living expenses only. That way, she will have financial security and will not be able to burn through the money.
Only you can decide if a Maryland trust is right for you. You should talk with your estate planning lawyer to find out the best strategy and to tailor your legal documents to your needs and wishes.

If you are wondering about the benefits of adjective games for kids, ask any teacher who has employed them in his or her classroom. Adjective games are very effective when it comes to developing a stronger vocabulary.
Students seem to learn almost anything more quickly when the learning process is fun. Furthermore, students learn faster when they use their new skills often, and games will make students want to keep using adjectives over and over.
Games with objectives can focus on different skill sets, such as building a complex adjective, strengthening descriptive skills, honing grammar usage skills, developing creativity, and boosting critical thinking skills. Don't tell the kids that playing adjective games is good for their mental health: they won't believe you since these games can be so fun!
One reason teachers want to play adjective games with their students is that they want them to become more accurate and specific when it comes to describing something. Outside of the classroom, if they are always using indicators such as "cool" or "nice," they will not learn to describe things in ways that other people will understand.
To focus on this skill set, try a game called Adjective Battleship. Bring in groups of small objects that are all similar in some ways but different in others. For example, bring in toy cars that are all the same colors, but are different shapes, or three green apples that are all different sizes.
Break students into pairs, and give each pair a set of three objects. Have one student secretly pick an object, and then have the other student guess which one the first student is thinking of. The second student must ask questions that use adjectives. For example, a student could ask questions like, Is it big? Is it round?, Is the doll's face happy? Confused?
This way, students will learn to be more accurate in describing things.
One of the more popular adjective games for kids is 50 Awesome Adjectives. Ask students to bring in a picture of one of their favorite places, perhaps a memorable vacation spot, their home, or a relative's house. Then, give them paper and ask them to write sentences describing the place using as many adjectives as possible.
Encourage them to be creative in their descriptions. Instead of a bald statement like, "There are four trees in the garden," you want something like, "There are four tall, twisty trees with thick, bushy, green leaves in the shady garden." The goal is to include 50 different adjectives in their description of the place.
Once that's done, ask them to trade descriptions with another student, and have them mark each adjective they find with a highlighter. If the other student finds at least 50 awesome adjectives, they can put a sticker on the description. Put the descriptions, along with the pictures, on a bulletin board in the room so the students can be proud of their acheivement and often see the photos of their favorite places.
If someone is truly stuck and cannot find enough adjectives, you can allow them to look up new words using the thesaurus so that their vocabulary expands. That way, everyone wins, and students grow!
Some of the most fun adjective games for kids are the ones they can play independently, such as word searches, puzzles, and brain teasers that feature adjectives. Most of these games can be found online, and teachers can even design them using generators so that students can focus on the vocabulary that is being taught in the classroom.
These games don't just teach new adjectives: they also boost attention, critical thinking, and independent learning skills. For more information about good adjective games for kids to use in your classroom, ask your peers what games they use to make learning adjectives fun for their students.

Volunteering of Nepal
Nepal is an extremely poor and underdeveloped country, with most of its population relying on small-scale agriculture. The Himalayan country of Nepal is renowned for its breathtaking scenery, its rich cultural heritage and its friendly people and is dotted with both Hindu and Buddhist temples and sites of pilgrimage.
Volunteering in Nepal means lot from sharing extensive knowledge and helping the peoples of this country taking back the memories of beauties. Volunteers work in a range of village-based projects with local people. Participants experience the traditional way of life, the culture and the beauty of Nepal, while engaging in an exchange of ideas and work practices in the poorest communities
You are having the greatest moment of your life helping those poor families and communities with us in the field of sanitation, health, environment, education and more.
The volunteer opportunities are in the following areas
A) Culture Immersion : Cultural (exchange) Immersion programs can be arranged in most areas of Nepal. Participants will be placed with a Nepali family in a small rural village or within a city for the duration of their stay. During this period volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in local festivals and get the opportunity to exchange their culture. Volunteers should remember that this is a cultural exchange and that an effort to offer some knowledge of their own home culture and customs to the family with whom they stay is expected.

This paper is devoted to a new numerical approach for the possibility of -periodic Lipschitz shadowing of a class of stochastic differential equations. The existence of -periodic Lipschitz shadowing orbits and expression of shadowing distance are established. The numerical implementation approaches to the shadowing distance by the random Romberg algorithm are presented, and the convergence of this method is also proved to be mean-square. This ensures the feasibility of the numerical method. The practical use of these theorems and the associated algorithms is demonstrated in the numerical computations of the -periodic Lipschitz shadowing orbits of the stochastic logistic equation.

Guest Blog- Kendra's Staycation at The Walper Hotel
** Originally posted by Local Advocate, Kendra Coons, on her beautiful blog Kendra + Co. **
I had been itching to stay at The Walper since working on this styled photoshoot back in April. It was a bit of a tough sell considering we live about 6 minutes away – but when I saw they were offering 50% off for local residents, I jumped at the opportunity!
Since it was over the holidays this was the perfect non-gift for B. I would be totally lying if I said it wasn't also just a little bit for me! The new renovations had me swooning from the second I stepped foot inside. I honestly believe The Walper Hotel is the best hotel downtown Kitchener!
The day before we checked in I got a text welcoming us and asking if we needed anything set up in advance of our stay. I was blown away by their customer service and we hadn't even arrived yet!
When we got there, the check in process was quick and easy and we were up to our room within less than 5 minutes. Shortly after we got to our room there was a knock on the door. I was greeted by a Walper Hotel employee with a bag of coffee and tea and a platter of meat and cheese. Of course, we didn't eat it because hashtag vegan probs, but I was still incredibly touched by the gesture. Not wanting to waste food we took it to the front desk team on our way out. I know good cheese when I see it and that cheese deserved to be eaten!
The Room
Our room was a spacious suite with a living room space and a gorgeous bathroom. The space was modern but held a lot of the historic charm, which I am always a huge fan of. The wallpaper had me mesmerized and I was immediately crushing on all of the cute details! Honestly, if the team of designers who worked on the renovation want to come do my house next – I would welcome them with open arms.
The Walper Hotel is located right downtown Kitchener and is walking distance to EVERYTHING! This is definitely one of my favourite things. I love being able to walk around and explore all that our city has to offer.
We started our night off at Lokal, the bar right inside The Walper. Their mixologist has some serious tricks up her sleeve and we were both blown away by the complexity of some of the drinks! She also brought us a bowl of popcorn – which if you know me, you know won me over!
After some debating we decided to head to 271 West for dinner. It's one of our absolute favourites and it's also where we legally got married – so it holds a special place in our hearts!
After dinner we walked up the street to Rhapsody Barrel Bar. Rhapsody has a super cool vibe, live music and amazing cocktails! We sipped away to the amazing tunes of local artist Rob Szabo, and before we knew it two hours had passed.
Our last stop was TWH Social. Tucked beneath The Walper Hotel, we only had about a 1 minute walk back to our room! This was our first time here but it is seriously bursting with ambiance.
When we got back to our room we were surprised by a fully vegan plate of treats! I literally could not believe that they had gone through the effort to put something special together for us.
We snuggled into bed that night with full hearts (and bellies!). This was by far the greatest "gift" we could have given each other!
If you have been thinking about checking out the newly renovated Walper Hotel – I highly recommend it! It's been gorgeously updated, is full of intention, and you absolutely can't beat the location!

The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders continued their dominance against the Buffalo Bisons with a 14-2 win at Coca-Cola Field Wednesday night.
The Bisons are just 1-11 in their last 12 against the RailRiders and have been outscored 74-21 in those games.
Pounding out the runs: The highlights of Scranton's offensive attack included a four-RBI night for Mason Williams and a three-RBI night for Kyle Higashioka (including a two-run homer in the fifth) and Cito Culver. Donovan Solano went 4 for 5 with five runs scored. In all the RailRiders had 18 hits while the Bisons used seven pitchers.
"These guys don't swing and miss a lot," Bisons manager Gary Allenson said of Scranton's offense. "They don't swing at bad pitches for the most part, they battle in there and if you get them out it seems like it's in five, six, seven pitches. You've got to be able to use your breaking ball or changeup in fastball counts just enough, be able to hit your spots in and out and we weren't able to do that."
Loaded: In the sixth, singles from Andy Burns, Dalton Pompey and Darrell Ceciliani loaded the bases with one out. Matt Dominguez drove in two runs with a single. Jesus Montero hit into a double play to end the rally.
Hit streak: Ceciliani extended his hitting streak to 12 games and his on-base streak to 18 games.
Delayed start: A brief but heavy burst of rain over downtown Buffalo around 4:30 delayed the start of the game. The 7:05 scheduled first pitch was pushed back. Scott Diamond tossed the first pitch at 7:21.
First pitch: Buffalo native Emily Regan threw out the ceremonial first pitch. Regan had just returned to Buffalo after winning a gold medal with the U.S. women's rowing eight boat in Rio earlier this month.
Roster moves: The Toronto Blue Jays placed Darwin Barney placed on the Family Medical Emergency List and recalled Ryan Goins recalled. Reliever Bo Schultz was optioned to Buffalo.
Roster moves II: Yankees prospect Ben Gamel was traded to the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday. The Scranton outfielder had been named the International League's Most Valuable Player on Tuesday.
WCC Race: The mascot race is all tied-up between Atomic and Chicken Wing with each having 27 wins (although Atomic's wins come with an asterisk after getting caught using hot sauce) with one home game left. Blue Cheese has 15 wins and Celery remains winless.
Counting the House: There were 6,582 at Coca-Cola Field Wednesday night.
Up next: The final home game of the season is Thursday at 6:05 p.m. Righty Jason Berken (0-1, 3.92) is scheduled to start for the Bisons against lefty Phil Coke (4-3, 3.09).

This collection gathers early, out-of-print 7"'s and cassettes from a band whose brainy brand of indie/punk/grunge/math could only have happened in the early 90s, yet still sounds uncannily fresh today.
As is often the case with concurrent, like-minded bands, a lot of the underground rock groups of the early 1990s felt pretty similar at the time, but eventually splintered widely. Some ventured above ground (Pavement, Sebadoh), some followed unbeaten paths (Sun City Girls, Thinking Fellers Union Local 282), and some ended up frozen in time (Trumans Water, Fly Ashtray). A rare few left behind music that remains inextricably tied to the era, yet is somehow transcendent too.
Virginia's Wingtip Sloat were that kind of band. Their brainy brand of indie/punk/grunge/math, married as it was to pre-computer recording and pre-dot-com slackdom, could only have happened in the early 90s. Yet it sounds uncannily fresh today, as if high-rises and strip malls shot up around the group's basement studio without tarnishing the beer-drenched walls and tobacco-stained bathroom, leaving their fantastic sound echoing there, perfectly preserved and surprisingly undated. You can hear that decently on the band's two later albums, 1995's Chewyfoot and 1998's If Only For the Hatchery. But the most convincing proof has up to now gathered dust on early, out-of-print 7"'s and cassettes.
Add This to Rhetoric collects those artifacts, forging a kind of living, sweating time capsule. As for what it actually sounds like, that's best left to Sloat's Patrick Foster, who in his liner notes calls the perfectly-titled "I Wish I'd Been There to Make It a Cliché" the prototypical Sloat song. "It's all there," he rightly boasts. "Arch/true/ironic song title, stop-start nervous discharge, chaos, self-referencing lyrics, kick-axe drumming, a gut-punching bass, a guitar hanging on for dear life and a ridiculous coda that even made us laugh most of the time." To which I'd add a proggy use of shifting tempos, an affinity for overlapping vocals, and a snarling energy more openly indebted to punk than anything Pavement would've ever copped to.
Otherwise, Wingtip Sloat and Pavement's influences were pretty similar, from the Velvet Underground across to the Fall and Wire and up through the Swell Maps, the Clean and Tall Dwarfs. But in contrast to Pavement's sly dodges, Wingtip Sloat owned up to their borrowings. Hence the inclusion here of their irresistible takes on the Swell Maps' "Read About Seymour", the Clean's "Anything Could Happen", Tall Dwarfs' "Beauty", and, in a nice show of team loyalty, Sun City Girls' drunken "Kill the Klansmen".
But Wingtip Sloat's originals burn most brightly through the haze of intervening years. Their 1991 debut 7", which opens the album, is basically perfect, four tracks full of rhythmic turns, spilling guitars, and savvy vocals. Sloat followed that up in 1992 with a 12-track double 7". Here the band's manic three-minute songs sit snugly next to one-minute toss-offs, much the way a stoned conversation turns profound musings and fleeting babble into sides of the same coin. (Such wordplay was a skill the group honed through their "pre-blog post-punk racing form" Sweet Portable You, which printed stories, rants, and other oblique ramblings under the guise of record reviews).
The rest of Add This to Rhetoric doesn't quite hit the same highs, but it's never less than compelling. The band continually finds the kind of mini-epiphanies that can only come from basement music made outside the sterilizing light of pro studios and promo budgets. That effect is summed perfectly by the album's back cover, a track listing made simply by piling up the individual, hand-decorated cassettes each song was recorded on. It's enough to transport you back to a time when cassettes and handwriting still mattered. But Add This to Rhetoric is no nostalgic reverie; it's less like faded ink than wet paint, still dripping with vivid sounds and ideas.

"Banger (MOSHPIT)"- Schoolboy Q
Habits and Contradictions provided a near-perfect summation of Black Hippy Crew member Schoolboy Q's inherent personae on that LP. Q split the difference between the lurid and the lovely, between harmless stunting and reckless gangsta posturing. "Hands on the Wheel" he was joyously "too high to stand," by the lurching zombie of "Oxy Music" he became a tour-guide through a blood-stained narcotic scene where death lingered in the air. "Blessed" the self-confessed sinner dipped a toe into holy water, while the former "Sacrilegious" had him realizing he was doomed to "marinate in Satan's sweat". Hard-knocking new track "Banger (MOSHPIT)" fits into the unsanctified side of the equation; Q playing host to a party where bodies are left and no one says a word. Guitars quietly quiver and the bass rattles as Schoolboy Q rumbles with beasts and loads up the ammo. Even in these grey situations, Q notices the minor details, the "yellow tape by them candles" and how his shoelaces happen to match "the flannel". In Schoolboy's stark world it's often impossible to breathe, but there's always the occasional gulp of fresh air to be found.
Schoolboy's third studio album and first major label release Oxymoron is set to drop sometime this year via Interscope/TDE, but there's still no official date.

It's been a while!
Hey there! It has been a long hiatus since my last update. I have been busy with many things mainly work and also going through a mentorship program that helps me improve as a photographer. You might have noticed that this website has had a huge makeover with some new works, and also some old works that had been given a new life through re-editing them in a more refined manner.
Capture A Life Studio logo has also been given a new look. I hope my website now look more professional with the new look and the new logo. Of course, none of these matters if I don't have a good body of work to back it up with. I will continue to do better and produce better work every time.
Also, I will be sharing interesting information or tips about photography or retouching and I will also share some behind-the-scenes of my shoots. Hopefully, they will get you interested to find out how you can achieve the looks in the photos. So, please check back on this website more often for new updates! Thanks!

Tennessee Creek Bridge, looking west, morning of 12/29/2016
Photo taken by Nick Schmiedeler in December 2016
BH Photo #374481
Nick that first shot in morning sun REALLY captures bridgehunting, thanks for making the journey.
Another great find! This one appears to be a Wrought Iron Bridge Company product based on the endpost/diagonals connections. I have removed the Kansas Default Date from ca. 1910 and changed it to pre-1900. This one could very possibly be pre-1890 however.
If you visit this one, make sure you look the other way if you need to sneeze. I don't know how much longer it can hold out...
Fun one - as with so many, down long- abandoned road, this one south of 136th. Interesting bridge- utilization- extension project on south side at some point, long-since failed. Pretty area.

Some smart marketers saw a gap for a niche deal-of-the-day site. It would be solely for modern moms, hyper-local, highlight small businesses, and promote offers specifically for children. And it would have to happen fast. From scratch.
A flawless take-off for Little Birdie. David got the business off the ground, covering everything from the name itself to the visual identity, 'brand tone of voice,' and sign-up and social strategies. A fully-functioning site, print and banner advertising materials, and a full complement of social tools were all delivered on time and under budget to an over-the-moon client.

Rabbit owners! Remember to keep a close eye on your rabbits bottom in the warmer weather. Rabbits as very prone to getting "fly strike" a horrible condition where flies lay eggs on a rabbit and maggots then eat the poor rabbit alive. Elderly rabbits and those prone to messy bottoms are especially at risk.
The risk of fly strike can be reduced by ensuring your rabbit doesn't become overweight, that their diet is correct (80% hay and grass with a small amount of pelleted food and minimal fruit) and their hutch is cleaned regularly. If rabbits are at risk of flystrike, we recommend using Rearguard, a product that is applied to the rabbit's bottom and stops the maggots developing and causing damage. It is much more effective than fly repellents and stays on the rabbit for 10 weeks.

If you work at a small-town paper and your small town happened to be the home of a huge superstar, you would probably try to write about him/her with some amount of regularity, mostly because whatever they're doing is more interesting than the fight over an ordinance to paint all see-saws pink or whatever is going on in the real world. Also, pageviews! Milk that virtual fame-teat for all it's worth, right?
Take the Springfield News Sun in Ohio and John Legend as an example. Legend's from Springfield. The News Sun covers Springfield. Not much happens in Springfield. Write about John Legend! That's an easy logic path.
But what if people start to notice that you write about John Legend an awful lot? Well, you have a good answer prepared for that and you tell them what it is, just as long as there's no new John Legend news to print.
Let's go to the block quote machine and see what they had to say in a piece entitled: Why do we write so much about John Legend?
Every few weeks, an e-mail or phone call will wander into our newsroom along these lines:
"Why do you guys write so much about John Legend? He's not the only person ever to make it big from Springfield."
The sentiment comes so often that we have a stock response: Rest-assured, the next person from Springfield who wins six Grammys, we promise to write a ton about them, too.
But it's a legitimate question. Why do we write so much about John Legend?
The easy answer is: because we can. He's a popular musician who approaches his craft like a CEO launches a new product. He is one of the world's best at what he does. He appears to be intelligent, hard-working, successful and — one would hope — having a great time doing it. Have you seen his girlfriend?
Have we seen his girlfriend? Well, holy crap yes we have, and she's hot, so that makes John Legend 3.591-times more interesting to the citizens of Springfield.
Oh, in case you wondered, the Springfield News Sun is, like, super popular with Mr. Legend himself. They have his phone number!
The man is busy. Reporter Andy McGinn was able to get him on the phone for all of about 10 minutes last month for our article about his new album. And we have his cell phone number and know his parents!
Credit the paper for using only one exclamation point in that last sentence. That took an extreme amount of self control.

DOCTORS are trying to repair the arm of a man who was attacked for 40 minutes by his own dog.
Police and paramedics were called out about 11.15am to a park off Keats Close, Cowplain.
Sally Johnson, 39, who lives nearby in Hemsley Walk, went to help before emergency services arrived.
She said: 'I could hear screaming. I looked out of my bathroom window and my daughter said "a bloke is being attacked by a dog."
'I couldn't leave him there.
'I went down and the dog was attached to his arm. The man said, "Can you help me?"
'There was nothing anybody could do to get the dog off.
'His friend said he tried throwing sticks but it was no good.
'The ambulance people turned up and there was nothing they could do.'
She said she thought the dog was clamped on to the man's left arm.
'The dog was wagging its tail,' said Mrs Johnson, who works at the local fish and ship shop. 'Every time he moved the dog was moving his arm as well. There was blood everywhere. It was horrible. He was saying it had gone through an artery.'
The dog is understood to be a cross pitbull Staffordshire Bull Terrier and belonged to the man.
Mrs Johnson added: 'The whole time the dog was holding his arm its tail was wagging. It was like he was playing.'
Eyewitnesses say paramedics sat on the dog before police dog handlers arrived.
Several were seen holding down the dog with poles.
The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance landed in the park but the man was taken to hospital by road ambulance.
It is understood the dog was clamped to his arm for up to 40 minutes.
Eyewitnesses said they had seen the man at the park before being boisterous with the dog.
Noreen Restorick, who lives nearby, said: 'I don't think the dog meant to do it because it was wagging its tail.
'It was even wagging its tail when it was being held down by the police dog handlers.
'I felt sorry for the dog.'
The man, who was wearing a blue T shirt, is being treated for serious wounds to his arm.
The dog was put down by vets at the scene.

Skip to comments.Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax Accused of Sexual Assault by Second Woman
Posted on 02/08/2019 1:38:55 PM PST by a little elbow grease
click here to read article
And now Northam says he won't resign, anyway
He speaks well otherwise.....lol
Northam will be the third accuser of Fairfax. Just sayin'
Ms. Watson shared her account of the rape with friends in a series of emails and Facebook messages that are now in our possession, the letter continues. Additionally, we have statements from former classmates corroborating that Ms. Watson immediately told friends that Mr. Fairfax had raped her.
The letter adds that Watson was upset after another woman, Dr. Vanessa Tyson, came forward with her own accusations of sexual assault against Fairfax earlier this week.
Tyson claims Fairfax sexually assaulted her at the Democratic National Convention in 2004, forcing her to perform oral sex in his hotel room. He has repeatedly denied the allegations.
The details of Ms. Watsons attack are similar to those described by Dr. Vanessa Tyson, her lawyers letter reads.
Ok, I defended this schmuck Fairfax with the tryst in the hotel room, but Im out. If this is a pattern with him, he deserves to be gov even less than Mr I wore blackface, oh no I didnt.
Oh my.
My, my, my.
Pound me too going into overdrive.
Well, looks like the authentic black is going to be taken out so that the governor remains. What a bunch.
What a crowd.
..... really putting a black mark on the people of color.
great news...the dems are in a pit and cant get out. Its sucking all the anti Trump stuff out of the room.
Lets get this straight. The Democrats in my state will not force Fairfax to step down but leave the 2 white guys in place. Hope they all go.
Yes ......... what a bunch. And I hear that he has a couple more ready to come out of the dark.
Job security.
Thanks for that.
Sounds like a nice guy, for a rapist.
Like the old adage says,
"when it rains, it pours!"
The police are always last on the need to know list.

Massive changes are hard to do and aren't that much fun is most instances. Whether it's cutting out that 3 bar a day chocolate habit, deciding to run a 10k on the back of 12 years of sitting behind a desk training, or getting back into your jeans from 10 years ago. Big changes mean drastic alterations to your lifestyle and time that might not work for you cause you to fail and put you off in the future. Think of how many New Year's resolutions you've broken over the years and the money you've wasted on that gym membership or trainers you didn't use (or used for a month).
Small changes, however, are a little easier to fit into everyday life and will accumulate. Also, small successes will give you a feeling of achievement and maybe push you on to greater things.
Walk a bit more
The classic way to getting a bit healthier. Leave for work a little bit earlier and get on and/or off the bus at one stop before you normally do. Over time this could be two or three stops. Don't take the bus? Walk up the escalator/steps at the tube station; park the car in a spot the furthest from the entrance to work. Soon you'll be like Forrest Gump.
Leave the desk and do something
Get out of your seat every hour or so and do a lap of the office. Walk over and talk to a colleague instead of shooting them that two line email. Take 10 mins at lunch to get out and do a brisk walk (and get the benefit of some much needed vitamin D). Take a resistance band into work and do some shoulder mobility, to combat that desk posture. Hell, get down and give me ten push ups. Once every 8 hours times ten is eighty. People might laugh at first but, hey, you'll soon be stronger than them.
Switch the snacks
That pastry or chocolate bar you have with your 11 o'clock coffee; swap it for one or two pieces of fruit or a handful of nuts, or a combination of both. You'll not get as much of a sugar crash and be giving yourself some vitamins, minerals and healthy fats. It might help with your lunch time food choice and lessen the amount you eat.
Hydration, hydration, hydration
Drink more. Water helps the body and brain function, and is needed to absorb some vitamins. Take a bottle with you and sip throughout the day. Connect this with getting out of your chair every hour by drinking 100-200 ml.
Put the device down
Sleep is important for the body to recover and the brain the process information from the day. Not enough can lead to problems in concentration, upset blood sugar regulation leading to overeating, and negatively affect your moods, amongst other things. Stop the Instabangin' an hour or so before bed. The blue light mimics the effect of the sun and causes problems in the production of melatonin, which makes you sleepy, disrupting your body clock. Pick up a book, have a bath, listen to a podcast, do something relaxing. You can tweet about it in the morning.

The special importance of a bed from the perspective of a child
Playground, sleeping place and castle
The perception of depth, proprioception, of the children is stimulated when children can move around sufficiently in their bed. This is essential for the development of the brain and the facilitation of the nerve endings. But this is Beds have a special significance especially for children. They spend a lot of time in them throughout childhood. And not only for sleeping. Children love to play, eat, listen to music or stories, read or even do gymnastics in their bed. But the bed is also a "castle" into which the child can withdraw if it is feeling sad or when it is sulking. It is also the favourite place for dreaming and cuddling.
For adults and children alike, the bed represents a very personal space. Entirely different features are important for children where their bed is concerned. For them the appearance of the bed is important. The look of the bed should
appeal to the child's eyes. They prefer beds with a coloured design which look interesting and whose shape and colour are inviting.
Not only the appearance but also the feel has to be right. Children explore their surroundings not only with the eyes but mainly with their hands. They prefer beds that appeal to the visual and haptic perception. This is fun and stimulates the child's imagination.
Feeling good and experience . . .
Another important aspect for children is that they can feel good in their beds. Feeling good just does not mean soft bed linen and cuddly toys but also the use of agreeable materials for the bed. The use of smooth, well-shaped wood is as important here as a comfortable, soft mattress. Such materials not only make you feel good but also help in haptic perception which we discussed before.
Sometimes a goodnight story is not enough . . .
This is the same for children with special needs as for all other children. The main difference is that many of these children have trouble falling asleep and sleeping through the night. It is not unusual for them to take a long time to fall asleep. Often parents need to take the time to lie next to their child till it falls asleep. Waking up frequently during the night is also not unusual for these children. Unfortunately for the parents, they often do not go back to sleep by themselves which means that the parents need to attend to their children once again.
Some children need extra care during the night, either to have their diapers changed or for the child to be repositioned. This means that every night the parents and their children spend a lot of time together in and around the bed. A reasonable size, to allow room for therapies or for just spending time in bed, is important here. In some cases oversized beds are necessary. The child care bed is of far greater importance than is the case for children without disabilities.
What should such a child care bed be able to do . . .
It is clear that a child care bed has to meet entirely different requirements compared to that of a "standard bed for children". lt is not only used by the child to sleep but also by the parents as a support for their nursing activities. If a child suffers from sleeplessness and cannot fall asleep by itself, the bed should sometimes even provide space for a parent to sleep.
The child care bed is frequently also used in a different context – many therapists use the bed as a therapy bed. The child care bed should be designed such that it allow the child exactly as much freedom of movement as the child is able to make use of.

Robin Williams' apparent suicide Monday provoked an outpouring of affection for a prodigious, often ill-used talent. He did such good work for so many years; it wasn't easy watching him struggle against his own material in vehicles beneath his skill set.
Earlier this week I wrote about a few emblematic characters Williams made famous, among them the starring roles in "Good Morning, Vietnam" and "Dead Poets Society." And how could I leave "Aladdin" off the list? I shouldn't have. With Disney's animators drawing as fast as they could to keep up with Williams' inspired riffs in the voice-over booth, the results were sterling comedy.
Thanks to everyone who wrote in, via email, or Facebook, or Twitter, or even the U.S. Postal Service, with their own favorite Williams movies.
Here's a sampling:
For Bob Gallo the scene to beat is from "The Fisher King" (1991): "Jack and Parry stark naked laying on the grass in Central Park contemplating the heavens and the Holy Grail. May Robin's thirst be quenched now."
Though derided by many as sentimental in the extreme, "Patch Adams" (1998) found some love from Kathy Carlson. "The movie did not get much publicity but I believe it was one of his great performances," she wrote. "I re-watched it on Tuesday and forgot that the character he plays contemplates suicide." She concluded: "When a movie makes you laugh and cry I feel it has done its job."
BJ Anderson recalled an outtake from "Mork & Mindy," the TV show that set Williams sailing into the mainstream. "At the height of ABC's hit series I was working for the ABC affiliate in Boston, WCVB-TV," Anderson wrote. "In those days, bloopers were only come by if you had inside connections. My favorite was when Mork was on the main set, their living room, center stage, and talking to Mindy — Pam Dawber, that is.
Robin was dressed only in a bath towel around his waist, as he'd just finished showering. He went back up the staircase as Mindy continued talking to him, and Williams dropped the towel, revealing a completely bare butt and rendering Pam Dawber speechless with laughter and surprise. If anyone can unearth that video, you will see Robin at his comic best, so energetic, so full of crazy, funny lines."
And from Hal Schweig: "I was a little surprised that the film (featuring) Robin Williams' possibly greatest performance was left out of your five films of his to see. That film was 'Seize the Day,' based on the novel by Saul Bellow. I saw it for the first time on WTTW-TV many years ago. ("Seize the Day" opened in limited theatrical release in 1986.) "It also starred Jerry Stiller. In spite of the fact that the two principals were comedians, this was no comedy; far from it. It was a very sad story without a laugh line in it, and Robin Williams was nothing less than brilliant! The pain of his character was palpable. If ever there was an Academy Award performance, this was it.
Williams fans really need to know about this film. Please let your readers know about this rare gem."
I would, Hal, but you just did it for me. Thanks to all.
It has been a harsh and lousy week, first with Williams, and then the passing of Lauren Bacall. The best we can do as film lovers, I think, is to appreciate talent and, where we can find it, genius, while it's here. Careers are difficult things to maintain; too few actors enjoy the luck and the longevity they deserve. It's our privilege to enjoy the actors who mean something to us while we can.

A fishing boat captain bravely plunged into bone-chilling 8°C water off Alaska to save one of his crew.
US Coast Guard video captured the moment on Monday when heroic skipper Christian Trosvig dived in to treacherous seas and pulled the distressed sailor to safety, reports the Alaska Dispatch News.
Footage taken from a coast guard helicopter shows Trosvig, wearing an orange life jacket, paddling up the fisherman and grabbing his arm.
Disturbingly the skipper turned rescuer loses his grip and the man briefly slips under the water. Trosvig plunges under to retrieve him.
Moments later a small boat appears and the pair are thrown a rope before the crewman is pulled from the sea.
The dramatic episode was sparked when Trosvig's vessel, Grayling, had started to take water while fishing in Kupreanof Strait for salmon.
Another vessel nearby answered their distress call and agreed to tow them a short distance to port.
But then the Grayling rolled over, throwing Trosvig and his crew of three into the ocean.
The coast guard told local media that the fisherman was taken by helicopter to the Kodiak Municipal Airport, where medics treated him for hypothermia and diesel fuel inhalation.

This month the late Kim Jonghyun's anticipated album "Poet | Artist" was issued, and quite frankly, almost every other K-pop release so far this year was blown out of the water. Recorded and prepared before the SHINee member and soloist passed away last month, "Poet | Artist" serves as a magnificent testament to Jonghyun's identity as a singer and a composer. Like, heck, it's so good. I would even go as far as to say it's his best album, and that's saying something, as I previously thought albums like "Story Op. 2" couldn't be topped. "Poet | Artist" solidifies his lissome, enigmatic brand of R&B with a number of songs that move at a relaxed pace while exploring the possibilities of texture and composition.
Title track "Shinin'" is as compositionally creative as any of SHINee's best work, moving between funk-tinged chords at a light-footed pace. The vocal melody is characterized by this mesmerizing pattern of loops, where Jonghyun repeats the same notes and intervals but in new, reinvented rhythms. This composition takes shape in an intricate soundscape, dotted with slightly tropical percussion and glazed with effervescent synths that roll in and out of the forefront of the audio to create an animated sense of dynamic not only between verses and choruses, but within measures themselves. Sonically, it's just a treat.
It is Jonghyun's delivery that makes the song, though. Take, for instance, that moment in the prechorus where he's crooning one of those insistently spiraling melodies, and is suddenly interrupted by his own voice speaking a single word an octave lower. He then repeats the melody and at the end incorporates the same word into the tune itself. That's, like, hyper-catchy. Jonghyun's vocals, which have always been superior, are particularly lovely in the chorus, where he delivers silky high notes like little drops of honey within the words "you, you, you."
Out of the other 10 tracks on the full-length album, I hardly know which songs to highlight. Every song's a highlight. Among my favorite moments on the album are the tangible sense of urgency in "Only One You Need" constructed by the heady composition and galloping beat; the vocal layering of the laid-back hook in "#Hashtag"; the way the rhythm play in the instrumental of "Grease" meets Jonghyun's staccato delivery of the melody; the gossamer vocals that at times feel as if they're soaring off into the sky on the dramatic "Take the Dive"; the pure jam-along-ability of the brilliantly crafted melody and instrumental of "Sightseeing," especially that multifaceted hook; the elusive, dreamy "Rewind" with its bizarre telephone noises and whistling; the acoustic guitar-based rhythm of "Just for a Day"; the shimmering composition of "I'm So Curious" as well as the distortions applied to soundbites of the chorus towards the end of the song; and the classic, slightly jazzy atmosphere of "Sentimental." I have to give due credit to "Before Our Spring," perhaps the most moving track on the album. The song's composition and delivery radiate this pure, whole sense of sincerity. Sadness and hope coexist in this song, not side by side but as one entity. It's so beautiful that it's hard to describe.
Obviously, this is not so much an appraisal of an album's strengths and weaknesses as it is an opportunity to admire the latest installment in Jonghyun's immeasurable legacy. But even if it had felt appropriate to write a review, not a single word you see above would have been different. The album is just a masterpiece. I'm grateful to Jonghyun for this gift and for devoting his life to music, because the world of K-pop would not be the same without him.
Take a look at Jonghyun's "Shinin'" MV below:

Are you a fan of pompoms? I am, big time. I found a gorgeous curtain upcycle on Pinterest the other day, which was using black tassels around the edges to jazz up plain, white IKEA curtains. Determined to have a go at the project, I bought a long strip of red pompom tapes for my curtains. Then I found this… Read More
I just bought a pair of gloves yesterday; they each have three little leather bows, and that's it. Very simple (well, for my wardrobe, anyway). I love the shape, colour and the tiny bows, but I wanted to add some personal touches and… well, some bling! Read More
Hello, lovelies! Are you enjoying shopping for autumn/winter season? I was browsing through Net-A-Porter.com recently, and had a huge crush on a pair of earrings from Tom Binns. Mixed media jewellery are still huge this season, both from big brands and high street shops, but I've never seen pearls, rhinestones and safety pins mixed together! So, today's tutorial will show you how to make a little bit toned down version of the earrings. Read More
After making a simple pair of earrings with felt balls (on this post), I was determined to make a matching necklace with lots of coloured felt balls. But then I thought about practicality (which is very rare for me :)); if I make a necklace with felt balls, chances are that I can't close the buttons of my coat, surely…? So I came up with the idea of using circle-shaped felts instead of felt balls. These circles take less time to make, and less bulky, so it's a win-win result! Read More
Yes, the felting season is back! I checked my blog (it's very handy, isn't it?) and the last felting project I've done was cat-shaped pouch back in April. In order to get back my felting technique, I made a simple pair of earrings with felt balls. After about five minutes of felting, my fingers seemed to remember how it worked, but it involved some finger poking, too :) Anyway, if you are new to needle felting, I think making felt balls would be the best first project. And if you have ready-made felt balls, you can just skip to step 5. Read More
Continuing from yesterday's hair tie project, today's tutorial will show you how to make a hair tie with a bow. It's very similar to the 'hair scrunchie with bow' I made a while back on this post, and it takes much less time :) Read More
I was organising my craft box, and noticed that I have loads of small scrap fabrics and trims that were probably too small for any project. Any project?, I thought. I couldn't just waste them, for sure! I started fiddling with them, and after about 30 minutes creative journey this hair tie was born. Read More
Are you a fan of neon colours? I am (in a small dose, though), and when I found this neon-yellow bow stud earrings (I know, love bows as well) by Marc by Marc Jacobs I instantly fell in love! Read More
I've been thinking long and hard about what to do with the vintage buttons I bought; I wanted to make something that I could wear daily, and something that hopefully enhanced their beauty. I finally decided to make a simple two-way necklace, and yes, I'm truly in love with them!! Read More
Hello, there! Today I'm having an Anthropologie knockoff tutorial (yes, again!) that I desperately wanted to share with you before the summer ends.
The last time I was in London, I found these very delicate, very summer-looking stacking rings on sale (unfortunately, we don't have Anthropologie in Brighton. Sigh…) and fell in love with them. The problem was that there seemed to be only one size available, and none of them fit me… So, although I still want their version (silly me), I decided to make some for consolation. Read More

So I've just created this blog as an extra push to travel the world more. This may stay blank for a little while, while I get everything together. At the moment I am currently living away from home, home being New Zealand, and have based myself as an English teacher in South Korea. Once I have something more substantial to write I will update this blog about my adventures, which will then hopefully kick start this into a fully-fledged travel blog.
I hope to travel to as many countries as I can over the next couple years at least, or as long as my bank account will allow me. Until then, I'll keep planning and hopefully soon I will start adding more posts.
I hope to write as I leave each country. I would rather have a full, uninterrupted experience of each place before I share my thoughts with you rather than updating as I go along. I feel this may come out cleaner and clearer rather than a collection of rambling posts about one country. Anyway, I don't intend for this blog to be anything spectacular, but just something to share my journeys and memories with other fellow travelers. Follow if you like, or carry on. Either way, I won't mind ;-)

First snow
I'm in a bit of limbo at the moment while I wait for a canvas order to arrive, so I've been clearing and destroying a lot of old work. This one I wasn't yet able to dismantle, so instead I left it outside to be weathered to see what happens. Overnight we received our first snow of the year. So today I walked out to check on the painting and this is how I found it. There is a hole burned in the first layer of canvas, behind the hole is an aluminum screen, slightly damaged from burning, and behind that is another layer of canvas.

Jarvis, Belangia eyeing Hanig vacancy
By William F. West
Staff Writer
Monday, December 3, 2018
CURRITUCK — Among the four candidates seeking to fill an expected vacancy on the Currituck Board of Commissioners are an educator who teaches government to high school students and a firearms dealer who wants to see more development in lower Currituck.
Selina Jarvis and Jason Belangia are two of the four Currituck Republicans who've expressed interest in being appointed to the District 2 seat Board of Commissioners Chairman Bobby Hanig is expected to vacate on Tuesday. Hanig is resigning with two years remaining on his four-year term after winning election to the state Legislature in House District 6 on Nov. 6.
The other two Republicans who've told party leaders they're interested in the seat are Steven Craddock, a real estate appraiser and electrical contractor who serves on the Currituck Planning Board, and Carolyn Bibeau, a real estate agent with Elan Vacations.
The Currituck County Republican Party is expected to meet soon after Hanig's resignation and vote on a recommended successor. The remaining six members of the Board of Commissioners have the option of accepting the party's recommendation or choosing someone else.
Both Jarvis and Belangia believe their interest in county government qualifies them to succeed Hanig on the commission board.
"I'm just one of those government geeks – and truly that's why I'm interested in this position," said Jarvis, 52, now in her 29th year at Currituck County High School where she teaches civics and government. "I just really want to learn about my county and how my county functions – and the issues facing our county."
Belangia, the 46-year-old majority owner in the Gun Shack in Harbinger, said he's running because he wants to encourage more growth in lower Currituck — a goal he says he shares with Hanig.
"We want to see the south end of the county prosper," Belangia said. "I mean, it's inevitable how the economy will drizzle from the Outer Banks into Currituck. I mean, we see it. It's already happening — and we want to continue that and make it better."
Jarvis, who's originally from Stanly County, earned a social sciences degree from Appalachian State University in 1989 and taught for a year in Cabarrus County. She and her husband, Steve, moved to Currituck, where he worked as a state game warden until his retirement. Selina Jarvis said she plans to retire from Currituck High this spring.
In addition to her job teaching civics, Jarvis also has seen it in action. She's assisted with county elections in Powells Point since 2002, serving first as a precinct worker and precinct judge before being named chief precinct judge in 2012.
Jarvis said Commissioner Kitty Etheridge, a former director of the Currituck Board of Elections, would routinely speak to her civics classes about how elections worked. She also said it was Etheridge who got her interested in working in elections at her local precinct.
Working with Etheridge, Jarvis created a student election assistant program that allows high school students to observe elections first hand by helping out at voting precincts across the county.
Jarvis said she's learned a lot about how elections work. She believes she's now ready to learn how those who get elected make decisions for the betterment of an entire community.
"I just feel like, if I could learn that much from elections, I think I could learn a lot and bring a lot (to county government)," she said. "I feel like I'm a fair person. I'm an open-minded person."
Jarvis said she's both a reader and researcher who will do her own homework on issues before making a decision.
"I'm not going vote some way because someone tells me to vote that way," she said.
Although she's never served in elected office, Jarvis believes she already has plenty of government experience.
"I think my service in the classroom is government service every day," she said.
Jarvis notes she also once served as chairwoman of the social studies department at Currituck High School, a position that included helping prepare a budget and setting priorities. She's also served in other leadership roles.
"I'm an ambassador for Currituck County Schools. I am a liaison between students and parents, and currently serve as an instructional coach as well. So, I'm a liaison between faculty and our administration," she said.
Belangia also has a connection to Currituck High School. His wife, Daun Biggs Belangia, is an assistant principal at the school.
Belangia, who spent his early years in Virginia, said his family has been in Currituck since 1985. He said he explored a career in heating and air conditioning after being introduced to the trade while a student at Currituck High, from which he graduated in 1990.
"I've always been one to be out and about — and I don't mind getting my hands dirty," he said.
Belangia said he was a partner in a business, All Seasons Heating and Cooling, before starting another business, East Coast Mechanical, which he sold in 2005.
Belangia said he was looking for something to do part time when he opened the Gun Shack in a small retail shop in Point Harbor. He eventually moved the business to a larger space up the road at the Liberty Sports Complex.
Belangia said his business allows him more time to be active in the community — time he'd like to spend giving back.
"I mean, the community has been good to me so I feel like it's my turn to do something back," he said. "This seemed like a good opportunity to do so."
Belangia makes no secret of his support for Hanig.
"Any question you had, he'd take the time to stop, answer it and at least explain himself or his decision 100 percent, instead of just saying, 'Look, this is the way it is,'" Belangia said. "And that meant a lot to me."
Belangia's wife also was a contributor to Hanig's House District 6 campaign. Campaign finance records show Daun Belangia gave Hanig $2,500.
"We both strongly believe that he's going to be a benefit to this area serving in the House," Belangia said of Hanig.
At the same time, Belangia stressed he shouldn't be viewed as "Hanig's man" on the commission if he's appointed.
"I'm my own person — and you can ask anybody that," he said.
Belangia currently serves on the Currituck Game Commission. He's also been attending commissioner meetings, watching and learning how the board conducts business. He believes he's up to the task of serving on the board.
"I am able to see both sides of an argument. I'm willing to listen. I'm willing to understand what somebody's issue is," he said.
Craddock, a third Currituck Republican interested in replacing Hanig, was previously interviewed about his interest in the seat. He has cited his six years of experience as a member of the Currituck Planning Board as one of the assets he'll bring to the board if he's appointed.
Attempts to reach Bibeau were unsuccessful.
Currituck Attorney Ike McRee has said county commissioners will have 60 days to appoint a Hanig's successor after being officially notified he has resigned. Although state law requires the Currituck board to consult with the Currituck Republican Executive Committee prior to filling the vacancy, it's not required to appoint anyone the panel recommends, he said.

IICHIKO x PIG AND THE LADY
pc: Desmond Centro
I had a wonderful time dining at one of my favorite and newest restaurants here on Oahu, Pig And The Lady. I was so excited to hear that they would be featuring the new Iichiko Bar Fruit flavors during restaurant week and this week as well! One drink features a fizzy on the rocks mixture of Iichiko Ume, and the other is a more tart cocktail featuring Iichiko Yuzu! Both are amazingly delicious, and are available at Pig and The Lady until the end of the week!
P.S. Iichiko Bar Fruit flavors will be available in retail locations starting in January!
