A lady\u00a0in North Carolina witnessed and recorded\u00a0a nail salon employee pull deer meat out of a cooler and cut it up on a tarp on the floor while customers were there.\u00a0 She said no one else really seemed to care, but it bothered her, and she worries about the sanitation of the establishment now.<\/p>\n
______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Back in 2016, Wanda Dench accidentally texted Jamal Hinton, thinking she was talking to her grandson. The two exchanged selfies as they tried to figure out who they were talking to, and Dench ended up inviting Hinton to Thanksgiving dinner with her family. Hinton apparently enjoyed the experience because he’s spent each subsequent Thanksgiving at Dench’s home. Each year he posts selfies of the two together, and every time they go massively viral. His post from last year racked up nearly 582,000 retweets and 130,000 likes. Hinton added that he and his girlfriend plan to invite the couple to their house for Thanksgiving in the future.<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n ENTERTAINMENT<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n A 3-year-old boy named Hyrum Harris is battling acute lymphoblastic leukemia but says\u00a0he gets strength from watching The Rock’s character Maui in the movie “Moana”.\u00a0 So, he made him a video\u00a0telling him to be strong and sang Maui’s song “You’re Welcome”<\/p>\n _________________________________________________<\/p>\n The official \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d Twitter account posted a cryptic tweet on Monday afternoon and the Internet nearly lost its mind.

Starting February 2020, there will be a new, Arabic-language Sesame Street specifically focusing on displaced refugee children.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A Syrian refugee now living in Canada had a hand in creating the new show called \u201cAhlan Simsim,\u201d which translates to \u201cWelcome Sesame.\u201d It\u2019s designed to help young refugees cope with trauma and deal with feelings of isolation. Mohammad Aljamous, who goes by Jamous, said this version of the classic children\u2019s show, is \u201cfocused on trauma recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n He hopes it will help child refugees \u201ccope with the current situation living away from home and the hard condition in the (refugee) camps.\u201d It will feature Muppets and human actors, while also offering coping tactics such as breathing techniques to help children deal with stress.<\/p>\n Jamous said one of the fictional characters will be fleeing war themselves, \u201cso they will address and show \u2018this kid needs more help, more friends.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Last year, Jamous was asked to help get the show off the ground as a consultant, while he\u2019d been working in the\u00a0digital department of the International Red Cross. Before that, he\u2019d been a refugee in Jordan for more than six years. As a refugee, Jamous saw firsthand how difficult living in that situation could be for adults, never mind children.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The show will heavily focus on education, as many of the displaced children don\u2019t have access to regular schooling. This past February, Jamous was able to arrive in British Columbia, through the help of his sponsors and since arriving in Canada, he\u2019s been employed in the hospitality industry, but has also been continuing to help his colleagues overseas to continue putting together the show.<\/p>\n ____________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n MEET MARKET:<\/u><\/strong> <\/p>\n The 28-year-old Philadelphia native has already met with 3,000 people, and is currently doing the rounds in New York.
