(WNPA) for 2021 have been revealed, and the images are breathtaking. Amos
Nachoum of the United States won the top place and a $1,000 cash prize for his
photograph of a leopard seal preparing to catch a helpless Gentoo penguin.<span></span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Nachoum waited for hours on the lonely island of Plano,
off the coast of Antarctica, for the right moment at low tide when the seals
would enter a lagoon and look for their meal.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">The event organizers feel that photography can highlight
the magnificence and awe of the natural environment, encouraging us to take
action now to ensure a brighter tomorrow for everyone, as humanity’s
relationship with Earth gradually turns to one of protection rather than take.
It’s difficult to disagree while scrolling through the judges’ picks.</span></span></p>

because she couldn't take care of herself. This kind and feisty nonagenarian
did it so that she can take care of her 80-year-old son who needed to be taken
care of.</span></p>

in Huyton. Within a year from him becoming a resident there, his mother, Ada

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The two of them, originally from Wavertree, were
described as being "inseparable", according to a report in 2017 by
Liverpool Echo. Tom, who never got married, had been sharing a roof with his
mother all his life and is glad to have her close to him at the care home.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The mom knows that her son is needing some extra care at
the moment. So she ensures feels safe and comfortable through the day. "I say goodnight to Tom in his room
every night and I’ll go and say good morning to him," Ada said at the
time. "I’ll tell him I’m coming down for breakfast."</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><!--Composite Start-->

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Talking about them staying in the care home, Tom said,
"They’re very good here and I’m happy to see my mum more now she lives
here." No matter how old you are, your mom's loving care and attention can
do you a whole lot of good. Tom is a great example of this.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Ada also makes sure she balances her time between her own
needs and those of her son. "When I go out to the hairdressers he’ll look
for me to see when I’m coming back," Ada went on to say. "When I get
back he’ll come to me with his arms outstretched and give me a big hug. You
never stop being a mum!"</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The two also display the typical scenes that are bound to
happen between a mom and son. At the age of 80, Tom still gets cutely scolded
by his mother. "She’s very good at looking after me," Tom said.
"Sometimes she’ll say 'Behave yourself!'"</span></span></p>

her late husband. However, one of her children, Janet, passed away at the age
of 13. Tom's sisters, Barbara and Margi,
are regular visitors of the care home, who come accompanied by other members of
the Keating family. They, too, can see how happy the two of them are to have
each other in the care home.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“There’s no parting them!" said Debi Higham, Ada's
granddaughter. "It’s reassuring for us that they’re both getting looked
after 24/7."</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Seeing their relationship is heartwarming for the staff
at the care home as well. "It’s very touching to see the close
relationship both Tom and Ada share, and we are so pleased we were able to
accommodate both of their needs," said Philip Daniels, the manager at the
care home. "It’s very rare to see mothers and their children together in
the same care home and we certainly want to make their time together as special
as possible. They are inseparable."</span></span></p>

Palestine). Well guess what? She’s just done it, and not only that, she
officially holds the record as the fastest person to do so after breaking the
previous record in over half the time!<span></span></span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span face=""Arial","sans-serif"" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Cassie’s epic adventure, which was called Expedition196,
took a total of 18 months and 26 days. She set out on July 24th, 2015, and she
finished on February 2nd, 2017. Her journey cost her an estimated $198,000 USD
(£160,000), a sum which was largely covered by sponsors, but as she wrote on
Facebook, “despite what you may think, this Expedition has not been easy.” She
was traveling on behalf of the International Institute for Peace Through
Tourism, and part of her trip was spent meeting politicians and students in
order to promote the institute’s primary goal of “mobilizing the travel and
tourism industry as a leading force for poverty reduction.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">So what’s next for this inspirational globetrotter? Well,
she’ll soon be off on another adventure, this time to Antarctica, and then in
June, she’ll be launching a course to teach people how to find the funding to
pursue their very own dreams of traveling the world. Needless to say, our names
are already on the list!</span></span></p>

are is most often celebrated. After all, we all value authenticity and
appreciate people who, no matter what others think, stick to their real selves.
The social media influencer Lonni Pike, who runs the blog Gray Hair And
Tattoos, is precisely that—a stylish, charming woman covered in tattoos who is
“loving life over 50 and owning her style.”<span><a name='more'></a></span></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Arial","sans-serif"" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">While Lonni is on a mission “to explore the world with
laughter and a never-ending smile,” she also loves dressing up in cool outfits
and her 375.7k TikTok followers are totally loving it. But she’s no stranger to
mean comments, either. And after someone wrote her “you’re too old to dress
like a teenager,” Lonni replied with a smashing response video on her TikTok.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Arial","sans-serif"" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Listen to beautiful relaxed classics on our Youtube channel.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Arial","sans-serif"" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">In honor of “dressing like a teenager,” Lonni pulled off
a killer outfit featuring Dr. Martens, cute little jeans, and a tucked-in
t-shirt. Lonni’s clip was watched 1.8M times, so let’s see her inspirational
message to everyone who has the smallest seed of doubt on what others would
think, right below.<br /><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The last time Texas was this cold was in 1989. With
temperatures falling to below -10C (14F), the state’s power grid failed, as it
could not cope with the demand for electricity. Rotating power outages have
been put in place by the grid operator to reduce the demand, leaving millions
of people without electricity.<span></span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">At least 23 people died in the storm or its aftermath.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Millions of people remained without power on Tuesday and
were planning for another cold, dark night in the wake of the deadly storm that
swept across the southern and central parts of the United States this week. In
many of these places, such devastating conditions arrive just once in a
generation.<br /><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">At least 23 people have died since winter began
unleashing its fury last week, some from the cold and some from attempts to
escape it. And almost four million customers across the country remained
without electricity on Tuesday evening, according to PowerOutage.us, which
aggregates live power data from utilities.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">More than 3.5 million of those outages were in Texas.
There, many people had been without power for hours or even days in freezing
temperatures. State leaders, including Gov. Greg Abbott, expressed criticism of
the operation of the state’s power grid, and the Texas House speaker announced
a legislative hearing looking into the widespread power failures.<br /><br /></span></span></p>

key factors behind the grid failures in Texas. It looks like record-breaking
cold weather spurred residents to crank up their electric heaters and pushed
demand for electricity beyond the worst-case scenarios that grid operators had
planned for.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Simultaneously, many of the state’s gas-fired power
plants were knocked offline amid icy conditions, and some plants appeared to
suffer fuel shortages as natural gas demand spiked nationwide. Also, many wind
turbines in Texas froze and stopped working, although it’s worth mentioning
that this was a smaller part of the problem.<br /><br /></span></span></p>

struggle. Damian Syrianos, who is originally from Sag Harbor, NY, found himself
in the middle of the havoc in Texas too, and he found a nice way to make the
best out of the whole ordeal—he attached a rope to a car, hopped onto a
snowboard, and went on to have some fun on the white streets.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“This is typical for me to do in NY when it snows with
friends but not typical in Texas,” he told Bored Panda. “I believe the last
time they had this much snow was 1986. So I had to take full advantage of it,
especially with plenty of experience to back it!”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“The storm hit us pretty hard, for Texas—I’ve been
through much worse with fewer issues. The state not being prepared, shutting
off power, and not having any plows to clear the roads so we can go to the
grocery store are all huge issues, but I just took advantage of it and went
snowboarding.”<br /><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Not long ago, an old matchbook laying on photographer
Pablo Iglesias Maurer’s desk caught his eye. Or rather, it was the
postcard-like picture on it, of a resort complex built in the 1960s. It got
Pablo wondering how the then famous landmark looked now, and the answer has led
him to make an amazing photo series called the Abandoned States.<span></span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The vintage photo came with the title How to Run A
Successful Golf Course, but when Maurer got to the place, it was clear the
owner of Penn Hills Resort didn’t follow that advice. He pointed the camera at
the abandoned place at roughly the same spot and did a ‘5-decades-after’ shot
of the place.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Ever since then, Pablo was hooked. He ordered more 60s
photo postcards from eBay and started going around the country, capturing these
once beautiful buildings from old photos that now stand abandoned only as faint
memories of what once was.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“The vintage postcards, have their own haze—the places
were never as nice as they look. I often struggle to get the two images to line
up, as well. But time blurs the difference and brings everything into focus.”</span></span></p>

Elizabeth Taylor attended the pool’s opening, and Florence Chadwick – the first

it. From Ross Padluck’s excellent “Lost Architecture of Paradise”: “…The new
indoor pool at Grossinger’s was the zenith of the Catskills. Nothing quite like
it had ever been built, and nothing ever would be again. It represented
everything about the Catskills in the 1950s-style: extravagance, luxury,
modernism, and celebrity.”<br /><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">For those individuals among us who possess a talent for
art, opportunities to create something beautiful can be found all around us.
Everywhere you look, there are empty walls that are just crying out to become
something more beautiful, if only someone would take the time. Thankfully,
there are plenty of incredibly talented street artists out there who are doing
just that, turning drab public spaces into explosions of color and creativity.
Check out the gallery below to see some truly incredible transformations.<span></span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></span><p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Arial","sans-serif"" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">If you’ve been on the beauty of the planet long enough you’ve
probably heard of the British photographer Chris Porsz. Chris is well-known for
his unique project called “Reunions” (click for part 1 of the post) which
documents the lives of people in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire. One would think
that it’s referring to simple street-style photos, but Porsz has been working
on his project for over 40 years already.<span></span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span face=""Arial","sans-serif"" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">What makes his project special is the fact that he
captures the same people, posing in the same places years after the initial
photo was snapped. The initial photos go back to as late as the 1970s and for
the last fifteen months, Chris has been diligently working on part 2 of his
“Reunions” project.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">In his photography book titled “Reunions 2,” Chris wrote,
“For many, seeing a snapshot of their younger selves brought back happy
memories of a day they had forgotten. Lots were thrilled to have a photo of
themselves at a special moment in time that would otherwise not have been
recorded.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">My sincere thanks to those once random strangers, and now
my friends, who made Reunions 2 possible by generously allowing me to share
their fascinating lives with you.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

in Cromwell Road serving Zahida Parveen. He bought an ice cream van when he
moved to Peterborough from Italy and traveled around the city in the summer
selling ice creams. In 1992 he set up a pasta shop in Peterborough, which he
still runs with his wife Clara and daughter Lucia. He has three children and
four grandchildren. Zahida said: “I used to live near Cromwell Road and I’d
often buy ice cream from Gino, I usually had a cone with strawberry drizzle
and sometimes a chocolate flake. I think I was about seven in the photo.”
Zahida still lives in Peterborough and has three children and a grandson. She
added: “It was lovely having my picture taken again.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Gino and Zahida’s 1980 picture appeared in Reunions 1 but
with just Gino outside his pasta shop in 2014 as the girl could not be found.
Chris added: “It was wonderful to find Zahida and to be able to reunite her

regarding him and his profession as a photographer. First, we asked Porsz how
he became a photographer and how he came up with the idea for the project
“Reunions.”</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“I picked up my first camera, a Kodak Instamatic, in 1972
to record a crazy 6,000 three-week hitchhiking trip across Europe and North
Africa with my girlfriend, now wife Lesley. The images were terrible and so I
got a better camera to take images of my family and I quickly caught the
photography bug.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">I dropped out of my social worker studies and became a
hospital A&E porter for thirteen years. On my days off in the early
eighties, I roamed the streets seeking inspiration and capturing everyday life
by pointing a camera at the society which was much easier and more satisfying than
writing long boring essays. I found it quite magical as I still do that by
simply pressing a button I can capture moments forever and fulfill some
creative urge.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

Paul has two children and is a DJ on the local radio station, Peterborough

rare but a friend contacted him to say he had spotted a red one on a drive.
Chris knocked on the door and owners, Maurice and Joan Bradford, were very

seminal book ‘Pictures on a Page’, and of course the photojournalism of my
heroes Robert Capa and Don Mc Cullin. In 1986 I got busy with raising three
children and a new paramedic career. I fell out of love with photography and
hardly picked up a camera for a quarter of a century.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">It was an age of protest and counter-culture so I headed
for the busy streets rather than middle-class suburbia. I was always looking
for action, protest, the dispossessed, eccentric characters such as the punks,
teds, skinheads, and rockers who stood out from the madding crowd. Regrettably,
I was more interested in the people rather than the backgrounds and I now
realize the social context is crucial too.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

never find as they have moved around the UK, emigrated, fallen out with their
former friends or family, or frustratingly declined to take part, but against
all the odds and with serendipity on my side, I achieved my quest. I had many
setbacks and false leads along the way, including a round trip of 200 miles to

Barn Owl Rocky perched on his shoulder and Chris took a photo of him at a
country and western show in 1984. He said: “We hand-reared several rescue Barn
Owls and I’d take Rocky into town on my shoulder, which made people smile. He
was called Rocky because he rocked his head from side to side when he was
happy. People would come up and stroke him, he was very tame and never tried to
fly away. He used to live in my bedroom and when my alarm went off he would
nibble my ear until I got out of bed.” Eventually Rocky and the other owls
moved to the garden shed, but one day someone broke into the shed and released
them. Joe said: “They thought they were saving the owls, but they were
hand-reared so couldn’t live in the wild. It was very sad.” Joe, who still
lives in Peterborough and works for Perkins Engines, went to The Exotic Pet
Refuge in Deeping St James for the reunion picture and posed with Sparkle the
Barn Owl. He added: “We’ve got dogs, guinea pigs, and goldfish now. It was

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“Unfortunately, my sense of urgency was not always
shared, and it was frustrating to wait months for replies to some of my
appeals. Inevitably, planned reunions were further delayed or canceled due to
illness, including strokes, heart attacks, Covid or accidents. My maxim of
seizing the moment before it has gone was crucial in keeping up the momentum
and if a character said: ‘next month’ I would say: ‘how about tomorrow’?
Compounded by the pandemic, it became a race against time before the next
lockdown and, although very challenging, I was a happy man when over some
weekends I completed up to a dozen reunions.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">When characters were reluctant and camera-shy, I would
not just easily give up as my rare images were so important to me, and with
lots of cajoling and persuasion from myself or their families and friends, they
often reconsidered and were glad they did. It was also important to me that
those who had emigrated would not miss out and, in spite of my technophobia,
Zoom call reunions from California to New Zealand and Germany ensured distance
would be no barrier.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

planning, it was often nerve-wracking as so much could go wrong and did.
Sometimes I would have to rush due to horrendous weather or occasionally
characters just didn’t show up without any warning or explanation. One reunion
had to be postponed when firefighters en route to us were diverted twice, to
rescue a cow and later to a deer stuck in the mud. I was so relieved when the
motorcycle cops made it without being called away. I could only relax once the
photos were safely in my camera and even then I would sometimes be unhappy with
the result, so where possible, and if my subjects agreed, I would try again to
do better in a later session.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

bittersweet where characters had died young and parents were saddened but

it was very emotional with some tears, hugs, and kisses. Some friends and

Chris browsing wedding rings at Ernest Jones on Cathedral Square in
Peterborough in the Spring of 1981. The couple met on a night out at The White
Lion pub in the city in 1976 and got married at St John’s Church in Stanground
in November 1981. They had their reception at London Brick’s Phorpres Social Club
and a two-week honeymoon in Tenerife.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The pair, who celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary
in 2021, bought their first house in Peterborough in 1980 but spent a year
renovating it before moving in together after they got married. Sharon worked
for SodaStream after leaving school, then in 1984, she became a stay-at-home
mum. Howard worked as an engineer for Royal Mail for nearly 40 years until
retiring seven years ago.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

1985 while her friend Pam Jackman (nee Huddlestone) awaited her turn. Cheryl
said: “In the early eighties the big event in my husband’s household was the
Deeping show where my late father-in-law, Jack Geeves, raised money for the
junior section of the Deeping Angling Club. My childhood friend Pam and I used
to go on a stall where the public threw balls to try and duck us into a pool of
water, which was great fun.” Cheryl, who now has three children and two
grandchildren, used to work in care homes. She married her then-boyfriend
George and most of the Geeves family involved in the Deeping show are still
local. The shows finished quite a few years ago but she said: “The memories of
those good times will never fade.” Pam works as a cleaner, has five children
and eight grandchildren, and enjoys cycling.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Chris added: “My original idea was for Cheryl to jump in
from a chair until she told me about her recent knee replacement! Worryingly
she fell in, which explains why she is soaking wet and Pam is laughing her head
off! As you can see it was a really fun reunion but this time in her garden on
a very hot summer’s day.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

A&E department at Peterborough District Hospital for 40 years. She worked
at the hospital at the same time as Chris was a casualty porter and he captured
a photo of her suturing a patient, a very common procedure after road
accidents.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Chris said: “I would often go along a line of accident
victims with a bucket and sponge so that the nurses and doctors could see what
they were dealing with.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Bess added: “It was horrendous as people would go through
the windscreen and I would spend hours carefully taking the glass out of their
faces. There weren’t as many members of staff in A&E in those days and less
paperwork. It was very hands-on. I remember one morning at 7.15am the porter
called me as there was a couple with their 13-year-old daughter in the car and
she was having an asthma attack. There was no receptionist or doctor around and
I resuscitated her in the back of an ambulance. I’ll always remember that day.
Fifteen years later her family sent me a photo of her at her wedding and said
she wouldn’t be alive if it hadn’t been for me. The job was very rewarding. We
saved lives and helped people every day.” Elizabeth is now retired and does
charity work for the Thorpe Hall Sue Ryder hospice. She lives in the village of
Thorney and the reunion photo was taken in her back garden.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

the other girls from school. She said: “I would have been about 18. I think it
must have been a Saturday night and I was waiting for Mick.” The pair met in
1978 and have now been together for more than 40 years. Amanda has worked

has three children.</span></span></p>

Peterborough in June 2006. She has three children and now works nights as a
cleaner at the hospital. She said: “We would have been on a pub crawl in
Peterborough. I was best friends with Helen Pycroft, but she remained at home
and her sister Karen joined us that night. I’m still great friends with Helen,
we’re like soul mates.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Lisa said: “I was about 15 in the picture and best

good friends, lived near each other and grew up together. They were some of the
best years of my life.” Lisa, who has a fiancé and now lives in Downham Market,
said she lost touch with the girls over the years but they plan to meet up now
they are back in touch. She added: “It was lovely to see them all again.”

and would have been potato and onion picking at that time. There are only 11
months between me and Pamela so we call ourselves twins for one month of the
year. Helen had a baby so she didn’t come out that night and her sister Karen
came out instead. I remember we wore rabbit fur coats.” Carmelina has worked in
a school kitchen for the last 20 years. She added: “I tried to leave but my
children loved the hours I worked and the fact I had the long school holidays
with them so I stayed.” Her daughter lent her a fur coat for the reunion photo.

the rescue group explained. “It isn’t just a matter of feeding them every 2
hours and keeping them clean. You pretty much have to do it all. We try to make
it as close to a mother’s care as we can get. Never a replacement, but as close
as we can come. Warm baths help!”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">In the short video below, one of the puppies can be seen
lying on his back in a caretaker’s hands and enjoying a very comforting
bath. Though watching the sweet scene is always heartwarming, thinking how
these innocent souls got there in the first place, makes you wonder how some
people can be so heartless!<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

it’s even rarer to see a “single dad” in the animal kingdom. But sometimes, a

suddenly died.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444;">“Animal Care and Control received a call with concerns over
the female swan’s health, as she seemed to have been bobbing her head and
couldn’t stand up on her own,” Emma Feeney, marketing and events coordinator
for the Esplanade Association told </span><a href="https://www.thedodo.com/daily-dodo/hero-swan-dad-carries-his-babies-on-his-back" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">The Dodo</span></a><span style="color: #444444;">. “But by the time animal control
arrived at the park, unfortunately, the female swan had passed.”</span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">While Boston Animal Control took the deceased swan away,
the father was seen quickly taking responsibility for the family, spotted “at
the nest with their cygnets tucked under his wings.”</span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">When you’re expecting a baby, it’s always nice to have a
friend who is also pregnant to share the experience — even if they’re not
actually a human.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Last year, a pregnant woman took in a pregnant cat, and
the two moms-to-be shared a bond — eventually giving birth at the same time!</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Lauren Maners loves animals, and often volunteers to
foster shelter animals in need of love. But when she was pregnant last year,
she decided to take a break from caring for pets, instead of focusing on her baby.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"></span></span></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">Yes we stuffed my 8 month pregnant self into my wedding dress one year later. 😂😂 <a href="https://t.co/kngI53QJfL">pic.twitter.com/kngI53QJfL</a></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">— Lauren Maners (@mamamaners) <a href="https://twitter.com/mamamaners/status/1248273790053822466?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 9, 2020</a></span></span></blockquote><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"> <script async="" charset="utf-8" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></span></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">But fate had other plans. Months into her pregnancy,
Lauren and her husband Kainan found a stray cat that they couldn’t turn away.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">They found the stray, a white female cat they named Dove,
on the side of the road, “extremely skinny and injured,” Lauren told Bored
Panda.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Dove had reportedly been eating out of dumpsters. And the
mom-to-be realized that the cat was also pregnant. Unable to find Dove’s owner
or secure a place in a no-kill shelter, Lauren knew she couldn’t turn away a
fellow expectant mother and took her in.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"></span></span></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">So everyone meet Dove the newest pregnant member of the Maners household. 🤍 <a href="https://t.co/k2q8rII3gQ">pic.twitter.com/k2q8rII3gQ</a></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">— Lauren Maners (@mamamaners) <a href="https://twitter.com/mamamaners/status/1251759194644103169?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 19, 2020</a></span></span></blockquote><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"> <script async="" charset="utf-8" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></span></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“I couldn’t just leave her knowing that she was going to
have to take care of her babies in the wild,” Lauren said.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“I knew that she was in bad shape and also felt a sort of
connection to her due to us both being very pregnant,” she told The Dodo. “I
managed to catch her by luring her up to me with our leftover food and wrapping
her in my jacket, and we brought her to the vet.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Lauren committed to fostering Dove and her future litter
of kittens, and the former stray quickly made herself at home.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“She would follow me around everywhere I went, and loved
sitting outside with me in the mornings in our fenced-in area and letting me
rub her belly while we ate breakfast together,” Lauren said.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">And in return for taking good care of the cat, Lauren got
a sweet companion with whom she could share a real motherly connection. The two
new friends were going through the same experience together, and Lauren joked
on social media that they formed an exclusive “Pregnant Girls Club.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"></span></span></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">Update : we’ve formed our own Pregnant Girls Club.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“I and Dove had an instant bond,” she told Bored Panda.
“It was like she also knew that I was pregnant and that I was a friend. She was
not instantly trusting of my husband the way she was of me.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Weeks went by, and soon both pregnant ladies were
preparing to give birth — and it turned out their due dates were very close.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Finally, the day came, and Lauren gave birth to a
beautiful baby girl named Kylie.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">And after returning from the hospital, she discovered
even more good news — and an amazing coincidence: Dove had also given birth!</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">While she’s not sure exactly what time Dove had her six
kittens, she suspects the cat’s birth aligned pretty closely with her own:
“They were very possibly born at the same time,” she told The Dodo.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"></span></span></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">Cat girl in the making 🤍 <a href="https://t.co/OZW0jq8Gvq">pic.twitter.com/OZW0jq8Gvq</a></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;">— Lauren Maners (@mamamaners) <a href="https://twitter.com/mamamaners/status/1277360907430092802?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 28, 2020</a></span></span></blockquote><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"> <script async="" charset="utf-8" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></span></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Lauren continued to foster the cat family while caring
for her newborn baby, and she continued to share a bond with Dove on their
motherhood journey. She even says that baby Kylie started to bond with the
kittens.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">After months of fostering, it became time to find a home
for all the cats. Lauren helped all the kittens get adopted into good homes,
and she told The Dodo that Dove was taken in by a friend of hers, so she can
still keep in touch.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">While caring for this pregnant cat during her pregnancy
was an amazing experience, Lauren also emphasized that it isn’t something you
should try to emulate: it’s important to spay and neuter your cats to help reduce
the stray cat population.</span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">When a woman was told that her days were numbered, she
thought she would never get to say goodbye to her beloved animals. But she soon
realized that nothing was too much trouble for the hospice staff, who even
brought in a full-grown horse inside just so she could bid one final farewell.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Jan Holman, 68, saw her health recently take a turn for
the worse and had to be admitted to the hospital. During this time, she was not
allowed any visitors because of the pandemic, and she dearly missed her dogs,
Monty and Rowley, as well as her horse, Bob.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">After a four-week spell at the hospital, Jan was shifted
to the Hospice of the Good Shepherd in Chester, UK. She began receiving
end-of-life treatment and could finally meet her loved ones. But she began to
think she may never be able to meet her furry companions.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"><iframe allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="446" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FHospiceGS%2Fphotos%2Fa.10152119371693095%2F10158708310753095%2F%3Ftype%3D3&show_text=true&width=500" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" width="500"></iframe></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">"It was just such a relief once Jan was moved from
the hospital to the Hospice in Chester and we were able to have named visitors
who could come and see Jan regularly," said Dennis, Jan's husband of 46
years, "however, we never imagined that we would be able to include our
dogs Monty and Rowley and Jan’s horse Bob on the visiting list."</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Once the hospice heard all about Jan's two Cavalier King
Charles Spaniels and the 15.2 piebald Cob horse that she had for 10 years, they
were determined to bring them to the hospital so Jan could finally meet them
again.</span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">"I just can’t believe what the staff here at the
hospice have done for me. Until a few weeks ago I was still riding Bob every
day and he is such an important part of my life, and I have missed him so
much," Jan said, as quoted by Liverpool Echo.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">"I knew that arranging for my dogs to visit was
possible as we had a neighbor who was a patient at the hospice a few years ago
and we were allowed to bring the dogs to visit her," she continued,
"but I just didn’t expect that they would ever be able to give me the
chance to see Bob one more time."</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"><iframe allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="332" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FHospiceGS%2Fphotos%2Fa.10152119371693095%2F10158708310868095%2F%3Ftype%3D3&show_text=true&width=500" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" width="500"></iframe></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">On the day of the special visit, Bob was brought to the
hospice from the Thornleigh Park Farm Stables, which is where he is currently
being kept. Once the horse was in the hospice courtyard, the nurses wheeled
Jan's bed to the patio doors so that Bob could put his head through the doors.
The staff saw an emotional reunion as Jan met her loving horse, who nuzzled her
neck and lap after spending weeks apart.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 17.3333px;"><iframe allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="333" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FHospiceGS%2Fphotos%2Fa.10152119371693095%2F10158708310863095%2F%3Ftype%3D3&show_text=true&width=500" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" width="500"></iframe></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">For the staff at the hospice, it was worth all the effort
to orchestrate the meetup between Jan and her animals.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">"It was obvious when Jan first came to us that she
is passionate about her animals and that horses have played a large part in her
life for many years," said Louise Saville King, deputy ward manager at the
hospice. "...The ethos of hospice care is not just about caring for the
clinical needs of our patients but also looking after their emotional and
spiritual needs as well. It’s about making a difference to our patients and
their families in whatever way we can."<br /><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 20pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Italian upbringing</span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Dean Martin’s early years in life were marked by his
parents’ Italian roots. He grew up as Dino Crocetti in Steubenville, Ohio.
Dean’s father was born in Italy and made a living as a barber. His mother, a
seamstress, and a cook were Italian-American.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Dean’s mother tongue was Italian, and he couldn’t speak
English until he started school at the age of five – which of course was a
pretty big handicap. Dean soon learned the language but got teased in school
for his heavy Italian accent.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="592" data-original-width="459" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8_2aCvIteYMN6Pt6tp45VCdhXDwbf8LJ2aBxbmlUTWtIqWFyc7uqA2xeyjhrt7vJnxQJZRMFLDujBLPFw9ePRW-2r1ycwj2bSN4LKmNPA5uz-gN9960Ev3g3k7yqdmK_qv2AMze99p0ar/s16000/2.jpg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><a href="https://twitter.com/kingofcool/status/1125748419488649217/photo/1" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">Twitter / Dean Martin</span></a><br /><br /></span></span></div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">He left school in eleventh grade and got a job as a steel
mill hand. The young man went on to work as a gas station attendant, before
embarking on a career as a boxer. His career as a prizefighter, under the name
“Kid Crochet”, went well. Apparently, he fought in 36 fights and won 25 of
them.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">But luckily, someone pointed out that Dean could sing,
and he soon found himself performing in nightclubs across the country.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">During one of his performances in Atlantic City, New
Jersey, Dean would meet a funny man who came to change his life – the legendary
Jerry Lewis.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The pair decided to join forces and formed an incredibly
successful comedy team during a magical ten-year spell. Martin and Lewis did 17
movies together, while also making regular appearances on one of the most
popular TV shows during the dawn of television, ”The Colgate Comedy Hour”.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="994" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLcQYQxS5GVRBXLfdjlnazoT06PJk6bloLEbL7NtWu018pCqP1dLz9Wqvng8yAp_0zm7D_prIqr9zAznCKcMmdmFKaeXDN8EbrvxCLZbB5waoZADuUe2Amjmwa7593oEP6FDBZwskBt-rw/s16000/3.jpeg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_and_Lewis#/media/File:Dean_Martin_Jerry_Lewis_Colgate_Comedy_Hour_early_1950s.JPG" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">Wikipedia Commons / NBC</span></a><br /><br /></span></div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Martin and Lewis were a special duo, in many ways. First
of all, they were both very talented. But they were also good friends in
private – something that took their shows and films to a whole other level.
Martin and Lewis were a groundbreaking comedy pair; their popularity is hard to
describe in words.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Perhaps Jerry Lewis said it best:<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“Who were Dean’s fans? Men, women, the Italians. Who were
Jerry’s fans? Women, Jews, kids. Who were Martin and Lewis’ fans? All of them…
You had fans that didn’t care that Lewis was on or that Martin was singing.
Because if Dean was singing, that was Martin and Lewis. If Jerry was goin’
nuts, that was Martin and Lewis.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 20pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Why did Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis split up?<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Martin and Lewis were the hottest things in Hollywood and
the highest-paid entertainers in the industry. But after 10 years together, the
duo split.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The breakup was painful, and the former friends didn’t
talk to each other privately for 20 years. There has been a lot of speculation
as to why their collaboration ended so abruptly, but the truth is that there
were several reasons as to why Martin and Lewis went their separate ways.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1366" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCt6jA1p6MXieoJL4hTs1dfZioq52mNHYoeUZcCzrjaTq8uHrRrTy1B-sqX4gYZ5lmHFuL_EiOSMHnhRv1mJI5y3rcpfA7v5zMIIAHGIzHEiKJlKZWdwBNeVLbriEfKrGVcFN8x37824od/s16000/4.jpg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span>Martin Mills

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The most common explanation is the two comedians’
different views on work ethic. Jerry Lewis has often been described as a
workaholic – he had a lot of energy and constantly wanted to produce more
movies, shows, and live performances. Although Dean worked a lot too, he had a
somewhat more relaxed relationship to the whole thing. For Dean, it was
important to make time to play golf (he was a scratch golfer at one point) and
spend time with his family.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">He was also fed up with being limited to romantic leads.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 13pt;">There was a general perception that Jerry Lewis was the
”real star” and some just saw Dean as the “fifth wheel”. That idea was
certainly fueled when Look magazine asked Martin and Lewis to pose for their
cover in 1954. When the photo was published, they had cropped Martin out.<br /><br /></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13pt; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="985" data-original-width="773" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3BD5eNOog3T0YL5pwbSLf6IUYsk7OltPfzw71D7Sf8-Wq2dR4AzmADAH3GjTKRjbRbMLoW3Xi7IEUlY4K4eqtkRWLOkFvUo26Y8ngOUg37iO470oyiWuuXlR8WrJh7oh_2URx1pyQUXqO/s16000/5.jpeg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_and_Lewis#/media/File:Dean_Martin_Jerry_Lewis_1955_Colgate_Comedy_Hour.JPG" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">WikipediaCommons / The Ettinger Company</span></a><br /><br /></span></span></div><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Martin felt let down, and the pair’s arguments were
escalating. It eventually became impossible for them to continue working
together. At one point, Martin shouted at Lewis that he was “nothing to me but
a dollar sign.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Lewis would later say that he regretted the way it all
ended. The fact that the two didn’t talk to each other for 20 years was
something that tormented Lewis for the rest of his life.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">”The stupidity of that, I cannot expound on. The
ignorance of that is something I hope I’ll always forget,” Lewis said.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 20pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The heartbreaking reunion<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Thankfully, their saga had a happy and reconciling
ending.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">In 1976, Frank Sinatra arranged a very emotional surprise
on The Jerry Lewis MDA Labor Day Telethon. Sinatra, a frequent telethon guest,
had secretly invited Dean Martin and introduced him to Lewis by saying. “I
have a friend who loves what you do every year.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">It was truly an epic moment when the former friends
hugged and talked to each other for the first time since separating in 1956.
Around 85 million American viewers were left with a historic TV moment that you
can relive yourself in the clip below:</span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">After the reunion in 1976, Martin and Lewis talked to
each other every day.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Deana Martin, Dean Martin’s daughter, has revealed more
details about the duo’s relationship after the reconciliation. Deana has given
several interviews lately, in a bid to keep Dean’s legacy alive.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">”They kept in touch with each other. Jerry just loved my
dad and my dad loved Jerry. I think Jerry would have liked to have been closed
after that but my dad was … if he wasn’t working, he was playing golf,” Deana
Martin told Fox News in 2019.</span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Dean Martin was such a handsome man and a lovely singer,
but not many people got to see the real version of the famous crooner.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">First of all, Dean loved and prioritized his family above
all else. He married three times and had seven children of his own, as well as
one stepdaughter.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">One of his daughters, Deana Martin, has in recent years
revealed many secrets from Dean’s life -– details that confirm some of the
rumors that surrounded her well-known father over the years.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">According to Deana, her father was far from that relaxed
and cool person who mesmerized the audience. In fact, he was very strict at
home.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444;">“He was an Italian father,” she said with a laugh. “He
would go, ‘These are the rules. You make your bed in the morning, you clean up,
you come straight home after school, you do your homework, you’re on time for
dinner. And this is it. If you don’t want to live by those rules, there’s the
door.’ I would go, ‘Dad, I’m 9!’ He’d say, ‘Come on! Rules are rules!’ We never
wanted to do anything to disappoint him,” Deana told </span><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/dean-martins-daughter-reflects-on-fathers-music-legacy-funny-encounters-and-rumors" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">Fox</span> </a><span style="color: #444444;">in 2017.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">There are many misconceptions about how Dean was private because he became so associated with his on-stage persona and his shtick.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444;">“He would be home for dinner every night,” Deana said to

cocktail at the bar. He was kind. He was so different from what everybody
thought he was. There was no one who could do Dean Martin better than Dean
Martin.”</span></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Dean Martin was a lady's man to some extent – but
labeling him as a womanizer is far from the truth. At the end of the day, Dean
was a man with traditional family values, quite unlike other Rat Pack members
like Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444;">“Dean had a persona of that being bigger than life and
being basically a womanizer, and a skirt chaser, which he was not. He was just
a sweetheart of a guy,” Patti Gribow, who worked with Dean in the ’70s and ’80s
as a backup singer and dancer, told </span><a href="https://www.desertsun.com/story/life/entertainment/2015/10/17/king-cool-dean-martin-stood/74079420/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">Desert Sun</span></a><span style="color: #444444;">.</span></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">”He didn’t drink that much. It’s funny… after my shows… people come up and they say,
“How on earth did your dad, how could he do that body of work when he was
always drinking?” I say, “Because he wasn’t. He was a really good actor
though.” And they say, “Yes, he was a very good actor.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Yet there is one old rumor about Dean that is actually
true. In 2017, Deana revealed that her dad had a nose job before he became
famous. He also made sure to pay the unknown donor who gave him cash for the
surgery, which was done to narrow his nose.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“He did have one. I have pictures!” Deana said.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Unlike many other Hollywood stars, Dean never let celebrity status get to his head, according to his daughter. The easygoing
crooner was pretty much the same, whether he met the Queen or visited the local
butcher shop.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

when they came close to Dean Martin. Elvis Presley was one of them.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"> “Elvis (Presley)
idolized my dad. I remembered meeting Elvis and he was the one who told me my
dad was the king of cool. I’ll never forget that,” Deana said. </span></span></p>

1991 and had his he had his last reunion with Lewis on his 72nd birthday. One

prolong his life – but refused to do it.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="line-height: 107%;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 13pt; text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 107%;"><img border="0" data-original-height="683" data-original-width="1024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCjbXJaMqEy_4TAlNTKQChovcN4brXgK1LDkQpz_1pkSGkErpL5UEXAk0DeVdXaU1tX-QEcQQzipexPv8m3B876MuAoxelL6cZRTurIE0vMyyNloVVDQfvi23giIWoSPfQuI6QGuMfp4Ds/s16000/10.jpg" /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"><span>Dean Martin played pool in the lounge of his Beverly Hills, California home in June 1987.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">At the age of 78, Dean Martin passed away on Christmas
Day in 1995.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Many mourned the icon’s passing. As proof of this, the
lights of the Las Vegas Strip were dimmed in his honor.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">His good friend Frank Sinatra was heartbroken when he
received the news.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“Dean has been like the air I breathe, always there,
always close by. He was my brother – not through blood, but through choice,”
Sinatra said.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">According to the comedy star himself, Martin wanted to be
remembered ”as a damn good entertainer, nothing spectacular. A good entertainer
who made people enjoy themselves and made them laugh a little. I want them to
think ‘He was a nice guy. He did pretty well and we loved him.”</span></span></p>

alternative living arrangements for them.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Bonnie and George Miller, both aged 87, were becoming
forgetful and Bonnie had a fall and broke her shoulder.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Schon was so worried about them he knew he needed to act

they were shown their new space.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Schon worried about his dad whose mind had started to

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The devoted son, from Bremen, Ohio, really didn’t want to
put them into a nursing home so with his wife Jeannie they started to explore
different options.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“One can’t live alone without the other and we didn’t

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;"> “We decided to

instruments, and karaoke area and move them in so we can take care of them,”
Schon explained.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

Serbian child prodigy, began sketching as soon as he was old enough to grasp a
pencil at the age of two. </span><a href="https://mymodernmet.com/dusan-krtolica-drawings/"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Krtolica's art </span></a><span style="color: #444444;">was already displaying tremendous
promise when we first found it four years ago, when he was 11 years old. His
artistic abilities have clearly improved as he has grown older, but his
favorite subject remains the animal kingdom.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Krtolica creates anatomically perfect creatures, flora,
and wildlife entirely from memory, using pencils or black pens. His parents
purchased him a complete encyclopedia of animals, which piqued his interest in
the natural world as a kid artist. Krtolica declared, "I'm going to sketch
them all," after absorbing the photos and quantity of information.
Krtolica's intricate animal paintings include everything from elephants to
antelopes, down to the last hair, tusk, and hoof.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444;">However, Krtolica isn't just interested in living things;
like many children, he's also fascinated with dinosaurs and other early

fit into the final few minutes if the history of the Earth were condensed into

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">“Then she noticed that some of the flowers had bees in them, but they
were not moving.”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">The couple studied the phenomena for a while and watched as more bees
arrived on the scene, entering the flowers one by one, as if it were nap time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

was watching as she stumbled around almost drunk-like and then got settled in.”</span></p>

beautiful flowers that exist, the ‘babies’ that can be observed inside it show
us the great beauty of nature. Generally, when they talk about orchids we
immediately think of the beautiful flowers with incredible colors and shapes,
they are also recognized for their great ornamental value, some are globally
known for being unique in the world.</span><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #444444;"><b><span face=""Arial","sans-serif"" style="font-size: 20pt; line-height: 107%;"><span>#1</span></span></b><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="914" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi648wd_M5V2B5Fvrd3boJmbA0nvYXNjHlC9jVRx3TVXfwnE_Uw07MuhgxrTi50tLuWzKUIA7h72m8wRqVcOMjjDPceuU7QmnoC7tx317EQhfNpbeJixnoSCbcZDZ8CSnYwwtM7FD0WsiVs/s16000/1.jpg" /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444; font-size: x-small;">© P.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">These plants have the incredible magic of letting us see
certain shapes and similarities with human appearances, in this case that of a
small baby in what looks like a crib, this makes it a wonderful and unique
species. Some researchers find this plant as a manifestation of the ‘divinity’
of mother earth, which never ceases to amaze us with its beauty.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><b style="font-size: medium;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 20pt; line-height: 28.5333px;"><span>#3</span></span></b></span><img border="0" data-original-height="540" data-original-width="720" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxW-TaivaXGTBkDuOSWzZIXeiDnS1hjUa1gfXG38oQ31LxuMxS6_YnX-NQg4uQgNveyB33iCTlfksO36KlA7xNcUOQm31BJtIi4vCwtbEOsFtRGOt5U4F2trHiP-2dFrv6RGZXDr343LGa/s16000/3.jpg" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20pt; font-weight: bold;" /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 107%;"><b style="font-size: medium;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 20pt; line-height: 28.5333px;"><span style="color: #444444;">#4<br /></span></span></b></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #444444;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMSZym3pbRsKyKKhnXMJCfySGNmFYEED-OfIXo29rbOLfyfjvNcGaeHsOVP15b_4NpsxydoLOh23Wo64xu6nTe4OZDdli-UYKqVLyG9UXozxBnk0joS-vsNzj_m3VmqRuhZL6MeKhHfpCg/s16000/4.jpg" /></span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b style="font-size: medium;"><b style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="color: #444444; font-size: 20pt; line-height: 28.5333px;"><span>#5<br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="553" data-original-width="830" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjekqWtCYlPpeLKJRVwGu7gUjJ24bDT7IWAlPVEagiX3GbXnGPmaPWJTeH-34J1cAhu-T5SC0i2Y2YDHM4vCzYzHcd9lH1H295DmpubFpqkRuD0syhEWD0eeM8e9Mlq_DT7QKqUIks3GPfM/s16000/5.jpg" /></div><br /></span></b></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b style="font-size: medium;"><b style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 20pt; line-height: 28.5333px;"><span style="color: #444444;">#6<br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #444444;"><img border="0" data-original-height="478" data-original-width="720" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiryw961wIideZ16h8_Klxr1_Pz189nXyS098629iaZIu1PzFsPUKl5aUOtscqVqLlRduEPwKX6RrOVdReWyiqv5ZHmFZyYSxR8Ni1XlDRTikjVlRgZHB_SJp3ZorBFdq3RdSfpId-uIeif/s16000/6.jpg" /></span></div><br /></span></b></b></div><p></p>champikahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18354844743898742631noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8621660248233315723.post-25933096954918855512021-08-18T14:50:00.006-07:002021-09-01T01:37:41.697-07:0095-year-old WWII veteran will finally graduate from high school after waiting almost 80 years <p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="630" data-original-width="1200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg457bF_RCmZLjeqZ4Ezsp-ieRvjSaySfWpdqA3sGcJrZacn7Q0eJaxt7Z9uateKbRjmq9VP5_zFruceZVUSA2wbcjAxep5IEK1O4yUkm56MXqZ8LhK4U2vLmo-v7x7NZU2K_UCjRcGr6zl/s16000/download+%25282%2529.jpg" style="display: none;" /></div><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 14pt;">With June just around the corner, seniors in high school
are set to take the stage and graduate, moving onto the next phase in life.
Some will go to college, some will go to work, and others will take their time
and figure out what they really want to do in life. After all, this is the time
to do it!<span><a name='more'></a></span></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">But one senior at Snowflake High School in Arizona stands
out above the rest. That’s because he is, quite literally, a senior!</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">We offer our sincere congratulations to Charles Hall, a
95-year-old WWII veteran who has had to wait almost 80 years before getting his
diploma!</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444;">While he was in school, </span><a href="https://www.abc15.com/news/state/95-year-old-wwii-veteran-set-to-graduate-from-snowflake-high-school?fbclid=IwAR0yDSjgZBQZTGmlE7A7e5ABAUcvngb0o_ccY4Hm88UGD6Pzm-2CQ2Km8qs" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">per his family</span></a><span style="color: #444444;">, Charles was an
accomplished student. He was Junior Class President, lettered in three
different sports, and was a successful boxer.</span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">However, he heard the call of duty and enlisted in the
Marine Corps in July of 1943 after the attack on Pearl Harbor. He technically
qualified for deferment, but he knew that this was the right path from him.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">He was part of and survived the initial invasion on
Okinawa, the last major battle of WWII.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Charles earned many awards as a Marine: the Navy
Presidential Unit Citation, the Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal with Bronze
Arrowhead, the American Campaign Medal, the World War II Victory Medal, the
Marine Corps Expeditionary Medal, the Marine Corps Good Conduct Medal and the
Marine Corps Reserve Service Ribbon.</span></span></p>

family. Time marched on, and he never went back to school. He went on to have a
large family: he now has 13 children, 52 grandchildren, 155
great-grandchildren, and 16 great-great-grandchildren!</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: helvetica;">Now, the 95-year-old’s family told ABC15 that his biggest
regret was not going back to school. And though he cannot turn back time, he
will finally fulfill his dream of graduating!</span></span></p>
