EDMONTON — The Latin origin of the word audience means 'a group of listeners' — however, Canada's first and only national deaf theatre festival proves that audiences that are hard of hearing can still enjoy the theatre experience.
Sound Off: A Deaf Theatre Festival is returning to Edmonton for a third year with more performances and additional sign languages. It was started in Edmonton by local deaf performing artist and playwright Chris Dodd as a platform for deaf artists using American Sign Language (ASL) to come together, learn from each other and work alongside hearing artists to show off their performing skills.
Within three years, the festival has grown from three mainstage plays to five. This year they are also including the Maritime Sign Language, which is used in the Atlantic provinces.
The festival is part of Chinook Series — a curated performance festival that brings together different communities to celebrate live art. It includes Sound Off; Black Arts Matter (BAM) a festival celebrating Black arts in the city; Sinergia; an Indigenous festival for arts and performances; Fringe Theatre; and Canoe Theatre Festival. It takes place between Feb. 7 to Feb. 17 at ATB Financial Arts Barns.
Dodd decided to create Sound Off after seeing a lack of a dedicated theatre festival for the deaf community. However, after three years he believes the festival is helping promote underrepresented deaf actors on stage.
"I feel it has helped advance deaf arts in Canada," he said.
"(Deaf artists) have been working hard and in return they get to experience the fruits of their labour … so this is where the direction of the festival is going and I look forward to many more years."
Sound Off has resulted in many firsts for deaf artists. Last year, for the first time, deaf interpreters were invited to theatre events in Toronto to interpret on the main stage. Networking at Sound Off also led to the Awakening Deaf Theatre in Canada conference in Montreal in November 2018. The conference provided a series of workshops for sign language performers and also started discussions on Deaf and Sign Language theatre in the country.
Although deaf and hearing artists work in community plays all the time, for the first time they will be doing it on the main stage at Citadel Theatre. Deaf and hearing actors will work together to retell Shakespeare's The Tempest in a unique way.
"It is notable as the Citadel is Canada's third-largest region theatre, so it is significant that a theatre of this stature has chosen to do an event like this," Dodd said.
One of the actors involved in Sound Off is Elizabeth Morris. Originally from Ontario, Morris is not only an actor but an American Sign Language coach and interpreter. She said although deaf artists have made long strides in the U.S, in Canada they are still finding their way and Sound Off is helping the community get there.
"So to have an official deaf Canadian festival celebrating deaf arts, having that coming here, uniting together with like-minded artists and as well to share with hearing patrons … our language and our culture through our production is very important," she said through her ASL interpreter Nicole Sander.
Morris has been acting ever since she was 14 years old and has performed all over North America. She added that in Canada, the deaf arts community was not very united. In Toronto, for the longest time, she would be the only deaf artist in a play, she said.
However, Sound Off includes plays that are dedicated to not only the deaf community but the hearing community as well. Morris is part of the play Songs My Mother Never Sung Me, where the deaf and hearing actors perform together, not only talking and singing in English but in sign language as well. Where Morris signs the words, Susan Gilmour, an Edmonton-based hearing actor, vocalizes them. There are ASL coaches as well as interpreters to help not only with the language but the culture as well.
Morris also has a master's degree from OCAD University in Inclusive Design. Her research is focused on making live theatres more accessible for deaf and hard-of-hearing families. She said she can see how that progress can be made with shows like the ones presented in Sound Off.
"It's great for families to come and oftentimes children that are born deaf but are from hearing families so for them to come and see deaf adults and actually feel like that that's actually a normal thing, that's an acceptable way of life."
She said the exposure is great for hearing kids, too, as she has often met hearing children who claimed she was the first deaf person they ever met. "I want to change that," she said.
At the weeklong festival, sign language interpreters will not only be present on mainstage but also in the lobby to help guide guests on where to go to see plays, buy tickets, get something from the concession stands.
Sound Off will officially kick off its first play Songs My Mother Never Sung Me on Feb. 13 and will go on until Feb. 17.

The OnePlus 6 is the company's first all-glass finish smartphone that if you don't notice carefully will not appear to be a smartphone that's made of a glass back and front. OnePlus 6 is all the phone that their fans and community ever demanded and the company has not disappointed at all. This will also be the first smartphone in India that will feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC officially. OnePlus has stuck to their mantra of Never Settle and the OnePlus 6 is something that upholds that for the company in 2018.
If you are on a OnePlus 6 device this year you will not be settling at all, at least on the basic front.
Watch: OnePlus 6 First Impressions Review: All You Might Need in 2018
Design and Display
Image: Siddhartha Sharma/ News18.com
The all-glass design that features Corning Gorilla Glass 5. Upfront you get a display that has a notch on the top and measures at 6.28-inches. This is also a Full Optic AMOLED display with a 19:9 aspect ratio. The best part of the design on the OnePlus 6 is that it does not feel glass like at all, that is also confidence boosting for users and the midnight black finish of the OnePlus 6 also has a very nice matte finish to it. The Silk White, in reality, uses actual pearl powder coating on the back and is one of the best white phones you'll see in 2018. The mirror black device that we were using was just too shiny. The thing that we didn't like on it was its ability to attract so many fingerprint smudges that we had to keep a cleaning cloth for it when not using in a case. OnePlus also has some amazing cases for the OnePlus 6 and our personal favourite was the Red Silicone case of the OnePlus 6.

There is also OnePlus' signature Alert Slider on the device but the position of this alert slider that switches the phone between silent, vibrate and ring mode has moved from the left edge of the device to the right on the OnePlus 6. The OnePlus 6 will be available in three colour options of Midnight Black, Mirror Black and Silk White. OnePlus has not got any Ip rating for the OnePlus 6 but the company does claim that they have made it water resistant for everyday use case like rain, drop in a puddle etc. This means that you can still not swim with this device. The display is as crisp as it gets with good viewing angles and a screen to body ratio of 84% gives the OnePlus 6 a near bezel-less appeal. The OnePlus 6 weighs 177 grams and measures at 155.7 X 75.4 X 7.75 mm.
Specs and Performance
Image: Siddhartha Sharma/ News18.com
The OnePlus 6 is the first official smartphone in India to get the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC that has a maximum clock speed of 2.8 GHz. This is what makes the OnePlus 6 a super fast smartphone as well. Along with the flagship Qualcomm processor, the OnePlus 6 comes backed its two RAM options of 6GB and 8GB and storage variants of 64GB, 128GB and 256 GB. This combination depends on the variant that you will choose. The one that we had was an 8GB RAM and 128GB ROM midnight black edition for this First Impressions review. The performance was just lightning fast and this was a phone that never had any hang-ups or hiccups. In fact, on some occasions, we thought that we were a bit slow for this smartphone.
The OnePlus 6 runs on OxygenOS based Android 8.1. The OxygenOS offers some neat and very practical tweaks that are not to heavy on the regular functioning of the device as well. There is also an option to turn off the notch in which the device looks like it does not have a notch. Gestures like swipe up from the bottom of the display to go to home or swipe from left to right from the bottom of the display to go back just make things on Oreo OS a little more intuitive. The new Gaming Mode also clever with automatically lowering the amount of data assigned to background apps while gaming just boosts that fast gaming experience. There is also a Gaming DND mode that stops displaying notifications while gaming. You can also take calls on the speaker of the device without exiting the game as well.
These are some of the things that makes the OnePlus 6 quite an experience to use. OnePlus 6 does retain the Face Unlock feature and the fingerprint sensor of the OnePlus 5T and a similar 3300 mAh battery with DASH charging support. Sadly despite the all-glass design, the OnePlus 6 lacks wireless charging support that many of its rivals in that price point do have. The OnePlus 6 is also a dual-SIM smartphone that also comes with Bluetooth 5.0.
Camera Capabilities
On the optics front the OnePlus 6 sports a dual-camera module as its primary camera with one sensor of 16-megapixel with f/1.7 aperture and a supported camera module of 20-megapixel. The 16-megapixel camera now comes with Optical Image Stabilisation and EIS. The camera is also now capable of shooting 4K videos at 60 FPS. There is, of course, a portrait mode on the OnePlus 6 with advanced HDR capabilities as well. The front camera of the OnePlus 6 is also a 16-megapixel camera with a f/2.0 aperture and EIS enabled for stable selfies.
With the OnePlus 6 for the first time, OnePlus has also introduced super slow motion video recording in high definition at up to 480 frames per second. The OnePlus 6 also comes with an in-device video editor through which you can trim and put some filters and music on the video that you have shot. There are also additional loop and reverse effects on the video editor for you to play with.
The images that OnePlus 6 is capable of clicking are quite sharp and deliver true colours. There is no unnecessary saturation or overexposure on the capture. While it does offer a 19% larger sensor, the low light or dim light imaging on the OnePlus 6 is still very grainy and with noise. There is also Portrait Mode for Bokeh effect capture which is now way better than what we saw on the OnePlus 5T. The new AI Algorithm works exceptionally well to get the edges right while clicking portrait images. Also, the low light performance on portrait mode was also impressive when compared to the OnePlus 5T.
What's More?
There is also one more special edition variant in partnership with Avengers Infinity War of the OnePlus 6 that will come in only a 256GB storage and 8GB RAM variant for India. Watch this space for more on that as well.
The OnePlus 6 is all the phone that one can ask for in 2018. It has a powerful performance oriented SoC along with an amazing Oxygen OS user experience. Delivers on the camera front for all intensive purposes. Looks beautiful with a glass design that classy and not too much on your face. Offers water resistance and face unlock for security.
This is a smartphone that will have many competitors in the coming months. This is also the phone that shows the overall maturity that OnePlus has shown in their short period of existence. It's now set to enter the big league of a true flagship smartphone make and not be that value for money flagship, with the OnePlus 6.
Our experience with the OnePlus 6 so far has been exceptional. For now, if you were waiting to get your next phone and wanted to see how OnePlus 6 would pan out, we'll say you made the right decision. Because with the OnePlus 6 you'll not be settling at all.
Price and Availability
The OnePlus 6 will be available globally starting May 22. The OnePlus 6 India launch event takes place on May 17 and the device is already up for order on Amazon India.
OnePlus 6 Price
OnePlus 6 (6GB RAM & 64GB ROM): USD 529
OnePlus 6 (8GB RAM & 128GB ROM): USD 579
OnePlus 6 Avengers Edition (8GB RAM & 265GB ROM): USD 629

Those that know me, also know that I am often ranting on about how the world is sort of "Upside down".. that things that seem bizarre for me, are actually considered normal by others.. and of course the reverse is true.. things i consider normal, are considered bizarre by others.
this is what i mean by a topsy turvy world..
take yesterday, for example,.. i walked past a sandwhich bar, with a sign saying "Healthy chicken".. and a picture of a fried chicken under it..
Now to me, there's no way I could think that that chicken was the least bit healthy..
In fact.. picture this.. A house is burnt down, and with it one elderly occupant.. her remains are discovered, and the local newspaper photographs it, and writes above the pictre, "Healthy Human"..
Can anyone see where I am coming from?
But even when one looks at it from the point of view of a supposedly "healthy meal", it is still bizarre to me, and such a warped feast was never meant to be a part of our regular sustenance.
It's just clever advertising I suppose..
- The world has gone mad.

About the Book
When children grow up, the parents must die
California gang leader Mary Lou has built a criminal empire while her adult children are desperate for their mother's attention and love.
As her mental faculties wane, Alice and Frank Jr must acknowledge their mother is not the woman she once was and that they need to step up and take the helm, despite the stark differences between them.
But their sibling rivalry blinds both of them to their weaknesses which threatens the family when the Russian mob moves into the state. How can they fend off those attacks while fighting to decide who will lead the family now their dear Mama's gone?
My Review
4/5 stars: A mob-fueled soap opera full of family intrigue
First of all, look at that cover – so hauntingly beautiful.
Next, this is book four in a series, but can be read as a standalone. I had no problems picking up the storyline and being drawn in.
OK, onto the story – this is one family that will make you happy to see yours! There's a lot of intrigue and behind-the-scenes maneuvering as everyone tries to find their new place in the family "business." I enjoyed that storyline because I think that's such a natural part of life, and Borstinski really showed that struggle really well: how you are trying to find yourself while meeting expectations, etc.
Also, the struggle Mary Lou was facing (no spoilers here!) was very authentic-feeling. It was done really well.
I also couldn't help but root for some of the characters even though their business is a little unsavory, shall we say. And the bad guys? They were realllllly bad. Borstinski did a great job of drawing out the characters and creating good dynamics.
Overall, if you're a Sopranos fan, or even a fan of a good family saga, you'll enjoy this book.

Bloomberg News is reporting:
Sixty-four percent of likely voters surveyed after Obama's June 15 announcement said they agreed with the policy, while 30 percent said they disagreed. Independents backed the decision by better than a two-to-one margin.
The results underscore the challenge facing Mitt Romney and Republicans as they try to woo Hispanic voters, who are the nation's largest ethnic minority and made up 9 percent of the 2008 electorate, according to a Pew Hispanic Center analysis of exit polls. Obama won the Hispanic vote 67 to 31 percent over Republican John McCain in 2008, according to exit polls.
"In that Republican Party, there is a tolerance problem," said Carmen Nieves, 27, of Albany, New York, who is of Puerto Rican heritage and participated in the Bloomberg June 15-18 survey.
"These are things that have to be done, and I'm expecting them to be done," said Nieves. "I see a person who is doing his job."
The Republican bishops and their U.S. conference staff will probably go mute when the knee-jerk reaction to what Obama does is to file lawsuits is now being promised by Catholic Republican U.S. Congressman Steve King, a member of St. Martin's Parish in Odebolt, Iowa, in the Diocese of Sioux City under Bishop Walter Nickless. You can bet King will roll out some bastardized view of Catholic social teaching a la Congressman Paul Ryan in support of his bizarre immigration views. Stay tuned for that one.
The Bloomberg story continues:
That's the sort of reaction Obama's team will seize on as it seeks to position the Republicans as being against young immigrants raised in the U.S. -- a position that could alienate swing voters whose life experiences counter that position.
"At first I was really against it, but after sitting down and thinking about it, a lot of kids here are good kids," Loretta Price, 65, a retiree and undecided independent voter from Ocala, Florida, said in a follow-up interview. "I think it was the right thing to do."

ARLINGTON – Arlington residents will get to have their say this fall on whether to ban all fireworks citywide.
The City Council Monday voted to put an advisory vote on the Nov. 5 general election ballot.
The "yes-no" ballot measure will read: "Should the City Council ban the possession, sale and discharge of all consumer fireworks within the City of Arlington?"
The advisory vote is non-binding, but would ultimately help guide the council in further discussions whether to outlaw fireworks, add more restrictions to existing fireworks laws or leave them alone.
At the same time, Snohomish County is moving ahead with an advisory vote that would ban sale, possession and discharge of fireworks in unincorporated areas.
Marysville already bans fireworks in that city, which followed an advisory vote.
Arlington is seeking volunteers to write the pro and con statements for the measure, which would be printed in the voters guide. Committees are allowed to have up to three members.
Those interested in serving on one or the other committees are asked to email city spokeswoman Kristin Banfield at email@example.com or call 360-403-3444 no later than 5 p.m. Aug. 9. Statements must be submitted to the Snohomish County auditor by Aug. 15. Rebuttals in response to opposing committee statements are due by Aug. 20.
Council members last month discussed the impact that illegal and "safe and sane" fireworks activity has on and around the Fourth of July holiday, to families and neighborhoods that use fireworks for their own celebrations, and the pressure the activity puts on public safety resources.
State law requires any local ordinance that is stricter than state law to have a one-year waiting period before it takes effect. If the council adopted a new law on June 15, 2020, the last meeting before July 4, it would not take effect until June 2021.

Sleeping in Bangkok Airport is something you may need to do if your flight is delayed or has a large delay between connecting flights; sometimes it just cannot be avoided.
If you do find yourself in this situation then here are some tips to locate the best places to sleep in Bangkok Airport.
The only hotel accommodation inside Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport is at the Miracle Transit Hotel, which is located on the 4th floor of the International departures terminal.
Passengers with an International connecting flight can pre-book the only airside accommodation for transit passengers and know that they will have somewhere to shower and sleep.
Find current pricing and availability by visiting this Agoda link to the Bangkok Airport transit lounge operated as the Miracle Transit Hotel with prices starting from $126.
The Miracle Transit Hotel is located on the 4th floor in:
Sleeping in Bangkok Airport has never been more comfortable.
If you don't wish to stay in the Miracle Transit Hotel then the other option is to find a quiet part of Bangkok Airport to literally hide away.
The choices of Bangkok Airport sleeping facilities will depend upon what your ongoing travel arrangements are and how much comfort is required.
Here are my thoughts and suggestions for where to sleep in BKK Airport arranged by the Suvarnabhumi Airport floor level.
If you are already in Thailand and can't avoid an early arrival at Suvarnabhumi Airport, then I have written about several options for small Bangkok Airport hotels situated near to the airport, where you can sleep for a few hours.
These are cheap options, that in most cases have a shuttle service to take you to the airport.
In the case that you do arrive early at Suvarnabhumi Airport then Level Four is where all the check-in desks are located.
It is going to be busy all the time and so it is not a good place to sleep overnight.
It is just too noisy.
However once you have checked in and passed through immigration then there are some sleeping rooms available in Bangkok Airport.
Getting a few hours sleep in one of these areas is an option you can use if your flight is delayed.
The Miracle Transit Hotel rooms are specifically for international transit passengers connecting to another flight.
They provide beds and shower facilities in comfortable rooms for sleeping in Bangkok Airport.
If you are looking for the Bangkok Airport Transit Lounge in Suvarnabhumi Airport then this is where to stay.
Bookings are via the Agoda website and are available in 6-hour slots.
Rooms are located in Concourse A and G on the Departure Level.
Limited Availability
All the facilities you require are available Bangkok Airport and if you are looking for where to sleep in Suvarnabhumi Airport then the Bangkok Airport Miracle Transit Hotel is a great choice.
Just note, that there is now a capsule hotel located in Bangkok Airport called the Boxtel.
This is for people that are not in transit or have not yet passed through immigration.
For example, if you have taken an internal flight to Bangkok and then are waiting to check in to your International flight, then the Boxtel may be a suitable option for those travellers to have a quick rest.
The Boxtel rooms are located in the basement of the Suvarnabhumi Airport and these sleeping boxes are an alternative to more expensive options nearby, particularly if you forced to be at the airport early.
You can visit this Agoda link to book a Bangkok Airport sleeping box if you are thinking of sleeping in Bangkok Airport.
The Thai Airways First Class lounge located in the International Departures area has some small rooms available with canvas beds in them, where you can catch up on your sleep.
You will need to have a valid ticket from Thai Airways to make use of these facilities.
I wouldn't really describe these rooms as an airport sleeping box, but they are fit for the purpose and there are showers in the same area.
The Thai Airways sleeping area is an option if you have access to the First Class lounge.
The Thai Airways Business Class lounge has a range of reclining chairs and quiet areas where you can get some sleep.
The third floor of Suvarnabhumi Airport is described as the Meeting and Greeting Gallery and so obviously it is quite busy.
Either end of this level is quieter than in the middle, where the up and down escalators carry a lot of traffic to the other floors.
So at either end of the third floor of Suvarnabhumi Airport there is long bench seating located very close to the toilet facilities and it is not so noisy.
This area of Bangkok Airport is suitable for travellers who are land-side and have yet to check in at Bangkok Airport for either a Domestic or International connection.
You should be able to relax here and catch some shut-eye for a few hours.
If you are travelling alone take the usual precautions and make sure you secure your possessions as there are occasional reports of thefts from sleeping passengers.
The area outside of the Domestic Arrivals on Level Two of Suvarnabhumi Airport has lots of long bench seats where you can lay down and have a good rest.
The benches don't have armrests and are long enough to lie down on.
This area is reasonably quiet during the night and early morning.
In fact many weary travellers make this a resting spot.
If you are looking for a place to sleep in Bangkok Airport then these two floors can be considered, whilst waiting for a Domestic connection or if you arrived too early for your International check-in.
Level One is where the taxis and buses depart from and although there are a lot of long bench seats, hordes of arriving passengers come down the escalators to get their onward transport and it can be really noisy in here.
There are toilets located in the centre and next to Gate 8.
At the far end, is the Magic Food Point food hall that is open 24 hours per day, so you can easily grab yourself something to eat.
Very often I see a lot of ladies dressing in traditional Thai dress waiting in this area, like they are putting on a show in the Airport.
I have never seen traditional Thai dance performances in Bangkok Airport, but it seems like it may happen.
This area is not really suitable to sleep at Bangkok Airport, when all you really need to do is go down one more level to find some peace and quiet.
I suspect sleeping in Bangkok Airport in this area would be quite difficult just because of the noise and constant stream of passengers.
The next level down is the Ground Level really, but feels like the basement.
This level is where the Airport Link train to Bangkok arrives and departs.
As the Airport Link train stops operation at midnight, it is usually very quiet in this part of the building during this period.
Even during the day, parts of this area of Suvarnabhumi Airport are relatively quiet.
One of the best places for sleeping in Bangkok Airport is directly under either of the two down-escalators as you come down from Level One, where the taxi rank is located.
These two guys managed to get a spot near to the power point and plugged in their computers and are having some down time.
No matter where you select for sleeping in Bangkok Airport you will sleep a whole lot better if you get yourself an eye mask and neck pillow for your trip.
In any case, if you are travelling in Economy class, you really should have an eye mask and neck pillow for your comfort as the seat spacing is quite restricted and it will ease your journey.
Down on the Ground Level of Suvarnabhumi Airport it is reasonably dark under the moving walkways.
It is reasonably quiet and there are power outlets nearby so you can recharge your phone or laptop.
Bring your sleeping mat for a little more comfort, as you will be on the hard floor.
If you are thinking of sleeping in Bangkok Airport, then depending on the time of day you are sure to find somewhere to rest your weary head.
If you don't fancy sleeping on the bench seats or lying on the floor, then there is some good news.
The first mini-sized hotel has now been launched on this level of Suvarnabhumi Airport.
These sleeping boxes come with a full sized bed, wi-fi and air-conditioning and can be rented for short periods.
They are suitable for one adult, but a child up to the age of 12 is permitted to stay with a parent.
They have shared toilet facilities and no showers, so not exactly luxury, but they are just fit for their purpose of allowing you to get some sleep in Bangkok Airport before moving on.
Prices are starting around $48 for four hours.
Check the availability and pricing of theBoxtel Sleeping pod at Agoda now.
As the sleeping boxes are located land-side these rooms are not really suitable for transit passengers.
I bet it is a heck of lot more comfortable sleeping in Bangkok Airport in one of these sleeping boxes than it is sleeping under the escalator, but I suppose it all depends upon your budget and how long you need to sleep.
It is likely that these sleeping boxes would appeal to singles transferring either on domestic to international or international to domestic.
For example, this option seems suitable for those people flying up from Phuket and connecting to an international flight or arriving at Bangkok and needing to transfer to a domestic flight and who just need a few hours rest or a bit of a freshen up.
Watch the video to see how to get to the Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport walkway.
You will find the Boxtel sleeping pods located on the left hand side, before reaching the Novotel Suvarnabhumi Airport hotel sign.
If you plan on sleeping in Bangkok Airport then you can quite easily walk to the Boxtel sleeping pods with your baggage, once you clear Immigration and Customs formalities.
The overnight traveller is well catered for in Bangkok Airport.
Sleeping rooms, sleeping pods and regular hotel rooms are all available, either on the Suvarnabhumi Airport property or just a short drive away.
Hopefully this guide gives you some ideas and inspiration for your trip to Thailand.
If you can avoid sleeping in Bangkok Airport then all well and good.
Indeed there are many hotels near Suvarnabhumi Airport that offer reasonable facilities at a fair price.
These range from the nearby Novotel Suvarnabhumi Airport hotel that is within walking distance.
Then there is The Cottage Suvarnabhumi Hotel that is a short 15-minute drive away in a complimentary transfer.
If you don't have time to waste, then just proceed to check pricing and availability at the Novotel Suvarnabhumi Airport Hotel at this Agoda link.
But if you have more time to do some research then there is a short summary of all these Bangkok Airport hotels written up previously as part of my travel experiences.

The majority of historical records collected by Edward Ellis were donated in June, 2011 to the J.Y. Joyner Library Special Collections at East Carolina University, Greenville, N.C. Included are hundreds of documents, maps, deeds, newspapers, oral histories, cemetery records, archaeological reports, correspondence, biographies, genealogies and historic photographs related to the Havelock, Cherry Point and New Bern areas of eastern Craven County that will be preserved and made available to students and researchers. ECU calculates the size of the collection to be seven cubic feet of material.
Highlights of the collection include material on Sir Henry Havelock, early settlers, the War Between the States, the railroad, the naval store, timber and moonshine industries, MCAS Cherry Point and the City of Havelock. Important material related to Cherry Point, including an original 1941 base property map and 97 early photographs of local homes and farmsteads, had previously been donated to ECU's permanent collection forming the basis of the Edward B. Ellis, Jr. Papers.
Also previously donated to ECU was a collection of about sixty rare books related to Major General Sir Henry Havelock, the city's namesake.
Why ECU? Joyner Library at ECU was selected as the home of the Havelock Historical Collection because of the resources its Special Collections department offers in the preservation, care and cataloguing of historical material, and the ease of its availability to both history professionals, students and the interested public. The Joyner Library is about an hour from Havelock and is open daily.
Other Ellis material has been donated to the Havelock Public Library (rare books, biographies of Sir Henry Havelock, Civil War-era newspapers, Trader's Store journals); Tryon Palace Historic Sites & Garden (Gertrude Carraway's Bible and the Edward Ellis Atlantic and East Carolina Railroad Research Collection); the Kellenberger Room of the New Bern-Craven County Library (maps, documents, books & photographs); the Lenoir Community College Heritage Center (early Jones County newspapers); the Town of Garner, N.C. (newspapers); MCAS Cherry Point; the Eastern Carolina Aviation Heritage Foundation and others.
Many of the documents, artifacts and photographs assembled over many years by Mr. Ellis were generously contributed by local individuals and families. Contributions related to the Havelock area and eastern Craven County are still welcome and material will continue to be considered for inclusion in the collection. Of particular interest are pre-Cherry Point family histories and genealogies, portraits, journals, diaries, deeds, brochures, publications, maps and business records. Also sought are early photos, especially of people, events, economic activity and local buildings, such as churches, schools and stores. Provisions for the copying of photographs and documents can be made at no expense to the donor.
Anyone wishing to consider a contribution of historical material to be permanently preserved in the Havelock Historical Collection is urged to email Mr. Ellis at the Contact link above.

All five Daddies can"t keep their hands off me.
When I first meet them at an exclusive club for the ultra-wealthy, all five gorgeous men give me a look that demands one thing: give yourself to us.
They"re handsome, rich, alpha-as-sin, and they want me as a group.
Not individually, not in pairs, but all five at once.
It turns out, two of them are my bosses. I just started at their company and I didn"t recognize them at first. Now they both want me in their office for a very personal evaluation.
It"s crazy, I know. I can"t get involved with all these men. But it"s more than just a game. We have serious connections, deep and intense. This is real, and I think I"m getting addicted
I need to choose. Pick which one of them makes me the happiest. But I can"t make up my mind. Each man makes me feel something different and incredible, something I don"t want to give up.
It"s so wrong, and each new taste gets me closer to giving in to all five.
I have to let my Daddies decide what to do with me.
My Five Daddies is an over-the-top reverse harem romance with tons of steamy scenes and bad language. It"s only recommended for readers 18+.
My Five Daddies is a STANDALONE, full-length novel. No cliffhanger. Guaranteed HEA.Books by Author:B.B. Hamel Books
"Holy shit, Tori, you look hot."
I stare at myself in the mirror with a slight frown. "You mean, I look like a hooker."
Cara grins at me and drapes herself over my shoulder. "Same thing."
I smile despite myself and shrug her off. "Seriously though. I don"t have to""
"Fuck anyone"" Cara makes a face. "Do you seriously think I"m a hooker""
"No," I say quickly. "I mean, it"s just""
"Relax," Cara says, grinning and flopping down on my bed. "It"s totally fine. I get that you"re nervous."
I take a deep breath and let it out, turning back to the mirror. I"m wearing a dangerously low-cut black top that shows off my arms and stomach and tight black shorts. A pair of black heels are propped up by the door, although I can"t bring myself to think about those just yet. Cara did my hair and makeup, basically painting it on, making me look like I"m begging for attention. Which is the point, I guess.
I feel uncomfortable, but I get it. I know why she"s putting me in all this. "I guess I do look kind of good," I say.
"You do," she confirms. "And seriously, Tori. You don"t have to fuck anyone. I mean, unless you want to."
I shoot her a look. "Cara."
She grins and makes a face. "What" I"m just saying. Some girls do it, and hey, I don"t judge."
"I won"t be fucking anyone, thanks."
"Suit yourself. I don"t either, but I hear the money"s insane."
"From what you tell me, the money"s pretty crazy without the sex."
"That"s very true." She stretches and stands up. "Listen, thanks again for doing this. My mom"s been on my ass about visiting my sister and her stupid new baby for like two months now."
"You mean your niece," I say.
"Niece, sure, whatever." She sighs and stands up. "I wouldn"t be going if she hadn"t bought the ticket."
"Why" I mean, I know you don"t get along with your sister."
"She"s a bitch," Cara says simply. "Mostly though her husband hits on me and I don"t love babies. I didn"t get the maternal instant, or whatever."
I laugh and look back into the mirror. "Well, I hope it goes okay."
"Yeah, me too." She comes up behind me again. "You"re gonna be great, okay" Just stay relaxed, smile a lot, and flirt back. The guys won"t touch you, they know better. Well, most of them do."
I turn back to look at her. "Most of them" What do you mean""
She waves as she heads to the door. "Don"t worry, Roger will take care of you. Anyway, I gotta go. Make sure you wear the shoes, and smile. Okay""
I sigh, frustrated. "Yeah, okay."
"Love you, bitch," she says in her more Kim Kardashian voice.
"Love you too," I mumble, looking back in the mirror.
I hear the door shut behind her as she heads out, and the nerves come creeping back in. I don"t think I can do this honestly. I have no clue why I accepted, but it"s way too late for that. My shift starts in a half hour, and I need to get going soon if I"m going to be on time.
I never thought I"d be doing something like this, but my student loans need to get paid off somehow. Cara promised that I can make a few thousand dollars per night if I play my cards right and use my, ah, "assets," her word. That"ll go a long way toward getting me out of debt and into a new car.
I stare at myself for another minute. I barely recognize my own face. This isn"t my kind of place, I"m not really that outgoing. I"ve been a waitress before, of course, for a few years when I was still in college, but this is different. This place" I"ve never been anywhere like it.
Doesn"t matter. Time to suck it up and do it. I can handle it. I take a sharp breath, feeling better after my little personal pep talk, and turn to the heels. I slip them on and totter out my bedroom door, confidence waning, but dedicated to seeing this through.
* * *
Promise is in a nondescript building in the richest part of the city. It"s tucked away behind a dry cleaner and a bottle shop. The door is red with a green square in the middle, and there"s no other identifying information on the outside. Cara says that"s on purpose, they don"t want just anyone coming inside. I ring the bell to the left and wait a second.
"Yes"" the voice says.
"I"m Tori, Cara"s replacement. She said to say the words, "I promise to be polite.""
There"s a slight pause and then a buzz. "Come on up, Tori."
I pull open the door and step inside. There"s a dimly-lit staircase ahead of me jutting sharply up toward the second floor, and so I start to climb. My heart is beating quickly, and I"m so nervous I can barely stand it, but I"m keeping one foot in front of the other.

WSGA Amateur Champion
Calynne Rosholt successfully defended her Women's Southern Golf Association Amateur Championship Friday morning with a 5&4 win over Hannah Berman. Lockwood Folly Country Club in Holden Beach, NC was the site of this year's championship, which featured some outstanding golf played by top amateurs from throughout the South.
Rosholt, a 16-year-old from Cedar Park, TX, came into match play as the #4 seed after shooting a 73 in the qualifying round. Berman was the #7 seed following her 74 in the qualifier.
The winner opened match play with a 2&1 win over Elizabeth Caldarelli. Her toughest match came in the second round when she had to play 25 holes before defeating Abbey Daniel of Covington, LA. She followed that up with a 5&4 win over Ole Miss player Kennedy Swann and a 1-up win over Megan Schofill. Schofill will join the Auburn golf team in the fall.
Berman, a Ponte Vedra Beach, FL resident, plays at Jacksonville University. She opened play with a 2 up win over Katharine Patrick and followed with a 19 hole win over Riley Smyth. She then recorded a big 1-up win over one of the tournament favorites Lauren Greenlief of Virginia, a former USGA Mid-Amateur Champion. Berman defeated Emma Whitaker in the semifinals 1 up to get a spot in the championship match.
In the Consolation of the Championship Emily Hawkins of Lexington, NC, defeated Britta Snyder of Ames, Iowa 3&1.

Hiestand earned her spot in the final with a 2 up win over defending champion Susan West of Tuscaloosa, AL in the semifinals late Thursday. Nunn made her way to the final via a 2&1 semifinal win over reigning WSGA Senior Champion, Anna Schultz of Heath, TX.
The winner, who shot a 79 in Monday's qualifying round, came in as the #5 seed. Nunn, the youngest competitor in the Mid-Amateur field, shot 77, which gave her the #2 seed.
Hiestand opened match play with a 9&7 win over local player Diane Sandoval. She then defeated Carol Davies 3&1 and Carolyn Creekmore 6&5 before taking on West in the semifinals.
Nunn drew a bye in the opening round and then defeated Mimi Hoffman 5&4 in the second round of match play. She defeated Julie Harrison of Baton Rouge, LA 2&1 in the quarterfinals.
Jirapon Carlson of Macon, GA came back from an opening round loss to Nancy Beck of Dallas, TX 7&5 to move through the Mid-Amateur Consolation bracket and claim that title. Carlson defeated Leslie Henry of Dallas 4&2 in the championship match Friday morning.
Carlson recorded wins over Laura DeCillis 8&6, Becky Mitchell 3&2 and Julie Robichaux 1 up en route to the title match. Henry, who moved to the consolation side following a 3&2 loss to Connie Bousquet of Mandeville, LA in her opener, then got a second round bye. Her wins came over Evelyn Blackmon 1up and Melissa Gotfredson 7&6.
Medalist honors in the Mid-Amateur went to Susan Temple of Vero Beach, FL. Temple shot a 76 in the qualifier to earn the top seed. The 2.4 handicapper plays out of Quail Valley Golf Club.

IxVeriWave 6.2 is Released!
Ixia is proud to announce the availability of the IxVeriWave 6.2 for WaveTest, WaveDynamix, WaveAnalyze, WaveDevice, WaveApps, WaveQoE, WaveDFS, WaveClient, Wave Automate, ATA, ATA-GUI BYOD, WaveIOT and WaveGen.
Experts predict a staggering surge in mobile traffic with Wi-Fi playing an even greater role in consumer, business, and service provider networks. Vital real-time applications such as voice, streaming video, unified communications (UC), and patient monitoring are all going mobile, raising the bar for reliable performance higher and higher.
Set to break the wireless gigabit barrier, emerging 802.11ac infrastructures promise huge gains in speed and capacity. But to realize their full benefit, access points (APs) and controllers must become more intelligent and content-aware in addressing:
- The growing capacity crunch with better RF design and improved data handling
- The BYOD trend with policy-based application management for delay-sensitive applications
- Increasing reliability requirements as voice- and video-over Wi-Fi proliferate
- Migration to the cloud with new levels of flexibility and quality assurance
To validate performance, makers of APs and wireless LAN (WLAN) controllers need to subject new designs to realistic application mixes, high-load conditions, and varying range, roaming, and interference scenarios. Your engineers need an efficient, cost-effective means of gauging the impact of new designs on existing WLANs, as well as the impact of the network on device performance—without requiring countless client devices to be bought and managed.
This release includes a MU-MIMO test capability in WaveTest, WaveDynamix and WaveAnalyze. The IxVeriWave MU-MIMO solution is unique and only solution that can address MU-MIMO testing at scale. The Client test product WaveDevice continue aggressive path with new Roaming and Security features.
Ixia continues to benefit from strong demand in the Wi-Fi market, and this release represents a continued investment in our emerging client test, field test and AP testing solutions.

Fights & Brawls As White Hatred Groups Storm Through UVA
Define these twisted beings as "Supreme Hate groups". But we need to realize that these are emotionally twisted beings that [do] get attention through violence and will resort to violence as a display of means to control and get what they really don't want, an exclusive "Whyte World" or America.
THEY should see how futile their struggle is by peeping out and accepting that there are other nationalities in Amerikkka with dark brown to light brown pigments, and those that claim pure blood see the truth, that there truly is no pure blood. There are no White people and we need to realize that WE are only Black by way of accepting that sensory (The one government label that is given to us that many people accept, a false label in skin color, whether the label is white or black).
There is marked up supreme hate, an investment; There is supreme protest against hate, NOT A BIG ENOUGH INVESTMENT; because when one looks at out government does the American [Christian angelic] government put strong laws against these outward racist demons?
You are precisely correct. Why we keep referring to these folk as 'supreme' baffles me. Supreme indicates superior quality. Definitely not what we are seeing here.

Trump presses border wall ahead of meeting with top Democrats
WASHINGTON - U.S. President Dοnald Trump οn Tuesday vowed to gο arοund Cοngress and utilize the U.S. military to build a wall alοng the U.S.-Mexicο bοrder if he does nοt get funding, just hours befοre he is to meet with the top two Demοcratic lawmakers.
In a series of early-mοrning tweets, Trump praised his administratiοn's mοves to block migrants at the U.S. bοrder with Mexicο and said effοrts to stop a caravan of migrants seeking to reach the United States were a success, and vowed that "the Wall will get built."
The president has made funding fοr the bοrder wall, a campaign prοmise, a central issue as Cοngress seeks to finalize spending befοre some federal gοvernment funding expires οn Dec. 21.
Trump is scheduled to meet at the White House later Tuesday with U.S. Senate Demοcratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House Demοcratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, who is seeking to becοme House Speaker when her party gains cοntrοl of the chamber next mοnth.
"If the Demοcrats do nοt give us the votes to secure our Country, the Military will build the remaining sectiοns of the Wall," Trump said οn Twitter ahead of the 11:30 a.m. EST meeting.
Trump deployed the U.S. military to the bοrder area befοre November cοngressiοnal electiοns, calling the caravan an "invasiοn," and critics decried the actiοn as pοlitically mοtivated. He has cοntinued to press immigratiοn issues in what cοuld be a pοlitical standoff that cοuld shutter the U.S. gοvernment.
The president wants $5 billiοn this year to pay fοr the bοrder wall in additiοn to other funds fοr separate bοrder security measures. Demοcrats, who have fiercely oppοsed the wall, say they would back the $1.6 billiοn that Senate Republicans have sought fοr the fiscal year to pay fοr related technοlogy.
During the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump prοmised that Mexicο would pay fοr the wall, but turned to Cοngress after Mexicο refused.

It's Raining.
(Da, da, de, da, de)
Do you like the rain?
What do you think about it much?
I've been some places where I'd hoped I'd never know the rain again
But just now it seems alright
Save the rain that falls upon the sea tonight
We'll ride the rain to France and back
And see the world through European windows
And if you cry when we leave Paris
I'll play you my mixtape all soft and gold
Wake up, the boat's leaving soon.
Hurry or we'll miss it.
Are you warm enough?
And do you like the rain?

In my quest to self-development, I was asked to write down 15 of my personality traits in order to link them to the maybe decision I took when I was barely 8. The decision that I am weak, shy and not capable. I have been trying to get on it for almost a week now.
What are my personality traits? Do I even have any that define who I am?
My whole life, I was told what to do, and how to do them and how much of a failure I am because I do not follow properly. I have been trying to adapt to people around me to fit in and be accepted and loved, to an extent that I do not feel definable! Whenever I try to write down a trait, I find tens of reasons why it is not me and tens why it could be. And when I crushed my mind, I only found it easier to write down the negative traits, as they sounded more familiar to my ear.
I took it up upon myself to ask my husband about it. Maybe it was the worst decision ever, but that is what I did. I was anxious, but what would go wrong? I already know how much he despises my personality, and it couldn't make me sadder or more self-hating than I already am.
Here is what he came up with:
- Warm
- Intimate
- Ambitious
Then he stopped and paused for the longest time, during which I finished a whole cigarette. He said he didn't want to tell me negative characterizes, we're already on bad terms. I told him it's ok. Please go on. And little did I know, the list was apparently long and probably in his head.
- You have an emotional scale that you measure all the time
- Emotionally judgmental, where you except others to have the same emotions as yourself and don't accept it when they don't.
- Argumentative, not in the sense that you love arguments, but in an opinionated manner in which it is your opinion is the only right one. – When did my opinion matter?
- Self-Centric: where you come out as inconsiderate and particular (whatever that means) – ME i have been doing nothing but walking on eggshells around our entire life together and before that others!
- Stubborn – well I knew that
- Not a planer and untimely – how can i plan when i am always to follow urs or afraid that you judge my plan.
- Snobbish, that is you are classist and treat the different class differently. …
- Obstructive, uncooperative & disrespectful, where you block me from moving forward in a disrespectful manner and do not give an alternative
- Unfocused
- Expressive – seriously, my whole frustration in life stems from the fact that I am not able to express myself freely
- Unstructured
- Irrational
- Un-visual
- He also added geeky, which he intended in a good way and told me don't get me wrong I like geeks, which made me smile, however like half hour later he called me up to where he was sitting to tell me to scratch that, I take it back.
I am still speechless and in shock that this how bad he sees me. So why is he still here, or should I be glad that he is still here? Does he know me at all, or is this the person I have become in our 10 years of abusive and destructive marriage?
I acted totally fine, as if it didn't hurt and I am the most confident woman ever, but I wanted to do is crawl-up in a whole in the ground and cry till I stop breathing. I gathered my two daughters and went down to the kids birthday party they were invited to.

Excerpt from Speech by Michel Barnier at the press conference following the third round of Article 50 negotiations with the United Kingdom
Greetings to each and every one of you,
David Davis and I, along with our teams, have just completed this third round of negotiations. Teams that I personally want to thank, on both sides, for their commitment and competence.
Monday, welcoming David, I said "I am concerned,".
Time is passing and every passing day brings us closer to the UK's departure date from the European Union on 29 March 2019 at midnight.
The fundamental question which we must answer is whether on that day, midnight on 29 March 2019, we will have organized the orderly withdrawal or if the United Kingdom leaves the European Union without an agreement , with all the consequences we have already explained.
On our side, in our common interest, we believe that an agreement is the best way out.
Ladies and gentlemen, This week we have provided useful clarifications on many issues, such as the status of cross-border workers, the aggregation or aggregation of social security rights and the procedures currently under way in the Court of Justice, three. But we have not made any decisive progress on the main subjects, although I wish to say that the discussion we have had on Ireland has been fruitful. On this subject, which I continue to follow personally, and indeed all the others, we have made real progress on the issue of the Common Travel Area on the basis of the guarantees given by the United Kingdom and we have clarified the work Which remains to be done, in a constructive way, notably on North-South cooperation under the Good Friday Agreement.
But, I repeat, time is running short to achieve, as we wish, a global agreement.At the current rate, we are far from seeing sufficient progress to be able to recommend to the European Council that we begin the discussion on the future relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union at the same time as we will finalize throughout the year 2018 the withdrawal agreement.That is our side of the third round.I would like, since I have the opportunity to speak to you today, to recall three points on the general framework of this negotiation which must be well understood and sometimes better understood.This negotiation is unusual and unprecedented.It is particularly true for the European Commission, which, with all the expertise of its services, I am indebted to, under the authority of President Juncker, within the framework of a mandate which was set from the outset, First day by the 27 Heads of State and Government meeting in the European Council under the chairmanship of Donald Tusk.
And of course, we work with the total confidence of the European Parliament, its President Antonio Tajani, the European Parliament, which voted by a very large majority by voting a resolution. I recommend that no one underestimate this role of the European Parliament. It is this mandate, adopted unanimously by the 27 heads of state and government that I implement scrupulously. This mandate is clear and precise: • It organizes sequencing. He simply asks us to put things in order to succeed.• It clearly mentions the conditions for a transitional period if requested by the United Kingdom.• And he asks us to organize this orderly withdrawal taking into account a future relationship, which I myself called the "new partnership", the new partnership. Those who would look for the slightest difference between what this European negotiating team is doing and what the 27 Member States want are wasting their time.
Secondly, as stipulated precisely in the Guidelines of the European Council, protecting the EU legal order and protecting the integrity of the Single Market are core principles of my mandate.
The UK decided to leave the European Union.
The UK government decided to leave the Single Market and the Customs Union.
We respect this sovereign decision.
But one thing is clear: The Single Market, the EU capacity to regulate, to supervise, to enforce our laws, must not and will not be undermined by Brexit.
The UK strongly contributed to the development of our single market which is the foundation of the EU. It understands well, very well, how it works.
The European Council guidelines state that the Union will preserve its autonomy of decision-making.
The UK wants to take back control, it wants to adopt its own standards and regulations.
But it also wants to have these standards recognised automatically in the EU. That is what UK papers ask for.
This is simply impossible. You cannot be outside the Single Market and shape its legal order.
Thirdly, the first phase of this negotiation is about creating trust.
Let me take two examples where we still need to build trust.
On citizens' rights
We have clarified a few points this week, but we need to go further to reassure citizens.
Over the summer, around one hundred EU and EEA citizens living lawfully in the UK received deportation letters.
The UK government quickly recognised that this was a mistake.
But this is not the first time that something like this has happened.
It reinforces the need to ensure that citizens' rights are directly enforceable in front of national jurisdictions, under the control of the European Court of justice, a point on which we disagree today.
On the financial settlement
EU taxpayers should not pay at 27 for the obligations undertaken at 28. This would not be fair.
In July, the UK recognised that it has obligations beyond the Brexit date.
But this week the UK explained that these obligations will be limited to their last payment to the EU budget before departure.
Yet we have joint obligations towards third countries. For example:
- We have guaranteed long-term loans to Ukraine, together.
- We jointly support development in Africa, the Caribbean and Pacific countries through the European Development Fund.
After this week, it is clear that the UK does not feel legally obliged to honour these obligations after departure.
We have also jointly committed to support innovative enterprises and green infrastructure in European regions until 2020. These are not recognised by the UK as legal obligations.
With such uncertainty, how can we build trust and start discussing a future relationship?
We need to address together these issues seriously and rigorously.

IAPB-EMR celebrates Dr. Hajar's tireless work to build prevention of blindness programmes in Saudi Arabia
Dr. Saad Hajar is currently the National Coordinator of Prevention of Blindness in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). He has been a member of the Saudi National Committee of Prevention of Blindness (NPBC) since 2008.
He was the principal investigator of the three Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness (RAAB) / Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) studies in KSA and successfully secured funds for these studies from the Ministry of Health (MOH) and Taif University.
The data generated from these studies were used as advocacy tools to convince MOH decision makers that blindness is an important health problem. A stakeholders meeting was convened to develop a comprehensive DR control programme for Saudi Arabia using the same survey results.
Thanks to this programme and the efforts of Dr. Hajar, the MOH agreed to allocate 10 million Saudi Riyals to fund blindness prevention activities for the first time in 2013. The investment will cover workshops, equipment, development of guidelines and protocols of different eye diseases, promotional materials, IT, data collection and blindness registry. The programmes will gradually start over a period of 5 years.
Dr. Hajar also suceeded in transferring prevention of blindness programmes from the curative medicine department to the noncommunicable diseases department within MOH.
Furthermore, the following other significant accomplishments are also testimony of the commitment and dedication of Dr. Hajar:
– He was head of the World Sight Day Committee from 2009-2011
– He participated in media work promoting awareness on prevention of blindness and eye diseases leading to blindness
– He participated in all IAPB-EMR workshops from 2006-2012
– He attended the 9th IAPB General Assembly in Hyderabad in 2012

Harbor History Museum in Gig Harbor is now hosting an exhibit titled "Bomber Boys: Portraits from the Front," a special exhibition now available through Harbor History Museum's Traveling eXhibition Service. Featuring a series of striking photographs reproduced from a secret stash of World War II images, ephemera, and a diary from 1945, the exhibit highlights the combat, captains, crew, and camp life of the 445thbomb squadron of the 12thArmy Air Corps stationed mainly on Corsica and in Italy.
"This amazing collection was found when my sister and I were cleaning out the hayloft of our horse barn in Gig Harbor," says Stephanie Lile, exhibit curator. "Dad never talked much about the war and never seemed to want to, so finding the box of dusty old photos and a diary was a huge surprise." Lile and her four siblings felt the collection was too special not to share. In fact, she has spent the last 10 years researching and cataloging the collection, an adventure that took her to Italy and to Arizona to fly in an historic B-25.
Lile used the collection as inspiration for a young adult novel, "The Tail Gunner," then she and her family decided to expand access to the collection by creating a traveling exhibition. ,
The exhibit features portraits of the "boys" who flew B-25 bombers in the Mediterranean theater. Some of them are known, like Wellnitz and Keith B. Lile – the tail gunner whose collection these images came from – and many are not.
One of the curator's hopes in presenting this exhibit is that as the show travels, people will recognize some of the men depicted.
"Bomber Boys: Portraits from the Front" is on view until June 2, with a curator talk being presented on Thursday, April 11, 6 p.m. at the museum, located at4121 Harborview Dr., Gig Harbor, WA 98332. For more information about "Bomber Boys," visit www.harborhistorymuseum.org.
