Jennifer McCaffery A bar owner’s determination to find a lost wallet helps turn a young man's life around A frantic call came into Jimmy Gilleece’s bar this past March. A newly married woman who had spent the afternoon at the dive beach bar in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, couldn’t find her wallet. She didn’t care about her ID, credit cards, or $150 in cash—but her wedding ring was tucked inside. Gilleece, 42, didn’t like the idea that a theft could have occurred at his place, Jimmy’s at Red Dogs. So he set out to find the wallet. He spent hours scouring footage from 16 different surveillance cameras, watching the woman’s every step in the bar until she went to sit on a bench outside and left when her ride arrived. Within minutes, a young man in a hoodie approached the bench, shoved something in his pocket, and walked off. Gilleece posted a clip on the bar’s Facebook page. “I didn’t want to crucify him,” he said. “I just asked if anybody knew who the guy was.” Within hours, Gilleece got a text from 17-year-old Rivers Prather, who’d heard about the post from his sister. Prather owned up to having taken the wallet and told Gilleece he’d done it because he hadn’t eaten in two days. He said he saw the ring but thought it was fake, so he took the money and threw the wallet off the public docks into the ocean. Then he bought a sandwich. Gilleece, unsure whether he believed Prather, told the teen to meet him at the docks. There, they got to talking, and Prather revealed that he wasn’t getting along with his family and had been living in the woods for a week. Gilleece, a father of two with another on the way, took stock of Prather—his small stature, his ruddy cheeks—and saw him for what he was: more of a kid than a criminal. But the stakes were high. The police were already on the case, and because of the missing ring, Prather could be facing felony charges. “He would be going to big boy jail, all 130 pounds of him,” Gilleece says. “I had to help him somehow.” Gilleece recruited two local divers to search the waters where Prather had thrown the wallet. Meanwhile, the police had heard that Gilleece and Prather had spoken and wanted Gilleece to bring the teen down to the station. Instead, Gilleece called the police and told them, “He’s going to be at the docks with me tomorrow.” A detective was waiting for them there the next day at noon. A crowd had gathered to watch the two divers search in the strong current. More than an hour passed, with no sign of the ring. Gilleece grew worried, especially when the detective began peppering Prather with questions, trying to get him to admit to keeping the ring. Each passing minute increased the chances that she would arrest the young man. And then a diver popped up. In his hand was the wallet, and inside was the ring. Cheers erupted from the spectators. Even the detective was happy. When Gilleece called the wallet’s owner, she burst into tears. She promptly dropped the felony charges against Prather for stealing the ring, and he was permitted to go through a mis-demeanor diversion program for the theft of the $150. But it wasn’t over for Gilleece. He’d been troubled about Prather sleeping in the cold woods. Gilleece knew his home was big enough to give Prather a place to live for a while. He told the teen he could stay with his family until the boy got on his feet again. He also gave the kid a job at his bar. “Most people would have given the footage to police, and he chose to help me,” Prather told CBS News. “I say thank you to him every day.”

"Normale mense slaap op 'n Sondagmiddag. Klim asseblief van julle radio's af..." Daar was eers so 'n doodse stilte, toe moet jy ons hoor! Ons is 'n konvooi van ses voertuie, oppad Afrika in. Jumbo het vir ons voertuie radio's ingesit, en ons radio tegnikus het vir ons 'n frekwensie gegee... en daar gaat ons, tot die tand toe gewapen met alles wat jy nodig het om Afrika te oorleef. André vat voor en ons dek die agterhoede. Ons broeder voor, glo jy vat dit kalm, dus is ons spoed van so 'n aard dat ek en Jumbo kon stop, kamer verlaat, of moet ek sê bossies verlaat, en dan voor ons die spoedgrens kan oortree, vang ons weer die kavalkade. Ons is so rustig, dat Andries vir ons "He is the seawalker" sing om almal wakker te hou, min wetende dat ons die boere van die Noorde ook wakker hou. Ons is toe al die pad op hulle marnet frekwensie... Hulle het nou al genoeg van ons Walvisbaaiers se gesprekke gevolg om te weet hulle gaan of by ons moet aansluit of ons moet stil kry… Laasgenoemde was die kersie op die koek, en hulle stuit ons talentkompetisie nog voor ons uit ons blokke kom. In die Caprivi aangekom, slaat ons daktente en tente teen die spoed van witlig op. Die manne het gehoor die mense het olifante daar naby gesien. Die hele kaboedel gaan nou olifante kyk. Ek weier summier die diens, ek volunteer om die kamp op te pas en benut die oomblikke om behaaglik uit te strek, en die bobbejane dop te hou. Besluit ek daar en dan... so na 'n halfuur... hier is geen man of muis in 'n radius van 10 km nie, nou is my kans om lekker te stort, hare te was en alles weer op hulle plek te kry… foutjie..! Onder die stort in my Evasgewaad, hoor ek hier kom voertuie aan met een groot lawaai. Ek vang die spulletjie so oor my skouer... Daar kom 3 Landrovers aan met jongmense wat bo-op die dakke sit, en dit kwetter soos spreeus…

Ag hygend, daar is geen uitkoms vir my nie, die fillistyne is op my… Sal ek mos die een hoor sê: "Kyk al die bobbejane in die bome, en O! hel!... daar stort die hoofbobbejaan". As ek nie in so 'n predikement was nie, sou hierdie hoofbobbejaan hom sy leviete voorgelees het. Respek... Man, mens respekteer mos ouer mense! Kom Spreuke 9 vers 12 by my op ."As jy wys is, is jy wys tot jou voordeel, en is jy 'n spotter, dan moet jy dit alleen dra.... Ek het dadelik besluit, hier moet ek vanmiddag die "wysheid" kies, om die bietjie waardigheid wat ek nog oorhet, te behou. Kies asseblief die wysheid, en mooi loop die naweek. Groete van huis tot huis… Rika. 3


YOUR BARBECUE “If you’re hosting a backyard barbecue with friends and family, try to keep the scraps on the table,” according to the experts at Pets Best. “Many humans love sharing under the table—but some common human foods are dangerous and downright deadly to dogs.” While the best-known problem food is chocolate, other potentially toxic foods include avocados, grapes, raisins, macadamia nuts, onions, garlic, and coffee. 4

Turns out there’s a biological reason why you’d rather sit on the couch than exercise. Here’s what it is—and how to overcome your inertia. When it comes to exercise, many of us spend more time explaining why we don’t have time than actually lacing up our shoes and heading out the door. According to the American Heart Association, we only need 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week, yet most of us don’t reach that goal. In fact, the National Health Statistics Reports found that more than three out of four Americans fail to hit that weekly recommendation. Why? The reason may be that we’re hard-wired to be lazy, despite our best intentions. In a new study in the journal Neuropsychologia, University of British Columbia postdoctoral researcher Matthieu Boisgontier, PhD, recruited 29 participants and asked them to look at images of either physical activity or physical inactivity while wearing electrodes that registered their brain activity. The participants were asked to move their on-screen avatars as quickly as they could toward the active pictures and away from the inactive images in one test, and then away from the active photos and toward the inactive ones. Boisgontier and colleagues found that volunteers moved faster toward physically active pictures than toward the inactive images. The participants, however, also used far more brain activity while moving their avatars away from the inactive images than moving toward them. In other words, the brain worked harder to get away from the sedentary image. Why do our brains work harder when just considering exercise? The reason may date back to survival instincts. Conserving our physical energy “has been essential for humans’ survival, as it allowed us to be more efficient in searching for food and shelter, competing for sexual partners, and avoiding predators,” Boisgontier explained to Medical News Today. “These results suggest that our brain is innately attracted to sedentary behaviors,” he adds. The secret to moving more could be as simple as tricking your brain into wanting to work out. In a paper in Current Sports Medicine Reports, author Daniel E. Lieberman, PhD, explains that because our natural inclination is to be lazy, simply telling yourself to exercise more won’t work—you need enticement. The solution is to make your exercise feel more like play; choose something that doesn’t feel like exercise and you’re more likely to do it. Another strategy is to intentionally build more activity into your everyday routine.

“The four finger chocolate covered wafer was first released in London in 1935 under the name Rowntree’s Chocolate Crisp,” according to 24/7 Wall Street, but it didn’t take off in popularity until two years later, when it was renamed “Kit Kat” and the word “break” (as in “break me off a piece of that Kit Kat bar”) became part of its marketing.

Riding a 20.72m wave has helped a Brazilian surfer claim a prestigious award and set a new Guinness World Records title. Brazilian Maya Gabeira has claimed the World Surf League's (WSL) inaugural Women's XXL Biggest Wave Award and set a new record for the Largest wave surfed (unlimited) - female. The 31-year-old rode a 20.72m wave from trough to crest at the big-wave break down known as Praia do Norte in Nazaré, Portugal, on 18 January 2018. The WSL and Guinness World Records presented Gabeira with her award and certificate respectively in a ceremony overlooking the waves on Monday (1 October 2018). "To set the world record has been a dream of mine for many years," she said. "But of course, after the accident in Nazaré 2013 [when she was knocked unconscious and nearly drowned], it felt like a very distant dream. "It took a lot of work to have a season like last year, to be 100% again; and to complete it with a Guinness World Records title is quite special." After her accident Gabeira moved to Nazaré "to be closer to the wave" and work on getting back to her best, taking on the "biggest and most challenging wave". Gabeira's WSL award is for the 2017/18 season; both that and her Guinness World Records title were judged against archives going back over 20 years. “Congratulations to Maya Gabeira for her outstanding achievement,” said WSL's chief executive, Sophie Goldschmidt. "Maya exemplifies the courage, commitment, and progression of female athletes around the world and we are so proud to celebrate her today as the new Guinness World Records title holder for the Largest wave surfed unlimited (female)." The WSL has said 2019's Big Wave Awards in April will also include two new categories: Women’s XXL Biggest Wave Award (where jet skis maybe be used) and the Women's Biggest Paddle Award (wave caught with only arm power). Brazil also has the Largest wave surfed (unlimited) - male record holder. Rodrigo Koxa rode an 24.38 m wave, also at Nazaré, on 8 November 2017.

1954: SWIMSUIT COMPETITION Although the modern bikini had been introduced eight years before this pic was taken at a beauty pageant in Park Forest, Illinois, it was still considered too racy for many American women. It took French bombshell Brigitte Bardot wearing a bikini in the 1957 movie And God Created Woman for the two-piece swimsuit to reach the mainstream. Many of the little girls are sporting outfits with modestly flouncy skirts.

The Valais Blacknose sheep originating in the Valais region of Switzerland are known as the cutest sheep in the world and it's easy to see why. With their black faces, long spiral horns, black patches on the knees, hocks and feet, and fluffy-looking fleece, it's no wonder their popularity is said to be "taking the world by storm," as reported by NewsHub in New Zealand. "It would be fair enough to say they are going viral," Christine Reed told BNQT. "The Valais Blacknose New Zealand Facebook page now has over 11,000 followers and we have inquiries daily from all over the world to import them. They continue to be sought after in the U.K., and the breeding up program in the USA and soon in Canada is growing in popularity." The Valais Blacknose New Zealand sheep are being bred by Sally and Lindsay Strathdee, who initiated the process to begin breeding the sheep when falling in love with the breed five years ago. They partnered with Reed and imported the sheep as embryos from prize-winning flocks in Scotland and the U.K. Raymond Irvine and Jenni McAllistair from Valais Blacknose sheep Scotland and Jamie and Nicola Wood at Prendwick Farm in Northumberland, England, are the top suppliers to New Zealand, Reed told BNQT. They describe the breed as "more like dogs than sheep" because of a warm and friendly temperament. "The Swiss say, 'make friends with a Valais and you have a friend for life!' and that about explains it," the Valais Blacknose New Zealand website says. "They are gentle and curious with very little fear of humans, making them the perfect pet." Sally Strathdee told NewsHub they're in "hot demand." The Valais Blacknose New Zealand breeders will be introducing part of their 50-head flock at a New Zealand Agricultural Show in November. The first generation of Valais Blacknose sheep in the United States is being born this year as part of a successful launch of the "breed up program," according to the American Sheep Industry Association. The Valais Blacknose Sheep Association of North America was formed in 2017 to support the introduction of the breed in the states. NewsHub reported that the popularity of the Valais Blacknose sheep "has skyrocketed around the world with Britain's Valais Blacknose Sheep Society proclaiming them the fastest growing sheep breed in the U.K."

Making invisible ink is a lot of fun, you can pretend you are a secret agent as you keep all your secret codes and messages hidden from others. All you need is some basic household objects and the hidden power of lemon juice. WHAT YOU’LL NEED: • Half a lemon • Water • Spoon • Bowl • Cotton bud • White paper • Lamp or other light bulb INSTRUCTIONS: • • • • •

Squeeze some lemon juice into the bowl and add a few drops of water. Mix the water and lemon juice with the spoon. Dip the cotton bud into the mixture and write a message onto the white paper. Wait for the juice to dry so it becomes completely invisible. When you are ready to read your secret message or show it to someone else, heat the paper by holding it close to a light bulb.

WHAT’S HAPPENING? Lemon juice is an organic substance that oxidizes and turns brown when heated. Diluting the lemon juice in water makes it very hard to notice when you apply it the paper, no one will be aware of its presence until it is heated and the secret message is revealed. Other substances which work in the same way include orange juice, honey, milk, onion juice, vinegar and wine. Invisible ink can also be made using chemical reactions or by viewing certain liquids under ultraviolet (UV) light. 11

Poisonous drinks Marissa and Juliana went out for drinks together. They ordered the same drink. Juliana was really thirsty and finished five in the time it took Marissa to finish one. The drinks were poisoned, but only Marissa died. How?

ANSWER: The poison was in the ice. Since Marissa’s ice had time to melt, she was poisoned but Juliana wasn’t. Too easy?
