Jeremiah Johnston Kay-Nah-Chi-Wah-Nung Center – some of you may know what it is or where it is, some of you have visited but I strongly suspect most have not and I’m pretty sure that Jeremiah Johnston didn’t ever contemplate about its future history, nor had vision of his part in it because he was born Nov. 20, 1860 at St.
Trade paperback books are seeing a resurgence in popularity by publishers. They are more willing to take a chance on a new, unproven author as their commitment in terms of expenses to produce the book are less. Here are six new titles that all looked intriguing. I’ve been reading about this title for months now and am excited to have a copy of “One Woman’s War” by Christine Wells. It is a novel of the real Miss Moneypenny who worked with Ian Fleming in World War II. Ms. Bennett is offered the chance to work as an agent in the field and encounters another strong woman who on the surface is also working for British intelligence. Women spies definitely seem to be a hot topic at the moment as “That Summer in Berlin” by Lecia Cornwall is also about an English spy. This time set in Germany during the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Viviane is in Berlin with her trusty Leica camera to get evidence that Germany is rearming. Books about the book world are always fun. “Thank you for Listening” by Julia Whelan is about an audiobook narrator who had dreamed of being a star of film, but only found success in the sound booth. She is even able to attend book conventions and meet fans and is asked to perform the last book of a beloved romance author with the industry’s hottest, most secretive voice. Secrets and of course, their revelation abound in this funny, sexy and complex love story. I love behind the scenes exposes and this should be a fun, light read.
Over $600 in cash money and 1,708 pounds of food was collected in eight hours in the blue and white Arrowhead Transit bus staged outside of the Super One grocery store. The bus was being used as a large shopping cart, to which store customers were encouraged to contribute food items. The fundraiser, called “Stuff a Bus,” was held to benefit the Falls Hunger Coalition Food Shelf. Pam Smith, Arrowhead Transit’s marketing and public relations coordinator, approached Coalition Director Nancy Anderson with the idea for the fundraiser. Anderson said, “Arrowhead Transit laid the groundwork, recruited sponsors – everything. And we were so appreciative. It came at a great time for the food shelf.” Anderson said this summer was very lean in terms of monetary and food donations 25 years ago The fate of developer Tim Gable’s proposed multi million-dollar complex may hinge on the opinions of 130 voters. That’s what Ranier City Council members told Gable and his associates after a fast-paced presentation at Monday’s council meeting. Ranier Mayor Dave Trompeter informed the developer that ultimately a liquor referendum vote may decide the issue. A proposed, the new Best Western Sand Bay Inn and Conference Center design calls for: three stories, more than 80 suites, a conference center, two bars and two restaurants, among other features. Gable outlined plans to develop the facility on Sam Woods’ property on Highway 11 East, behind the statue known as “Big Vic.”
