An 86-year-old man in New Hampshire went to read something on his iPad last Thursday night, and got\u00a0bitten\u00a0by a rabid bat.\u00a0 It was hiding between the back of the iPad, and where he’d folded over the cover of his iPad case.\u00a0 He didn’t know it was rabid at the time . . . he let it go outside, but it died soon after.\u00a0 And that’s a bad sign.\u00a0 So Fish and Game told him to go to the hospital right away, he got rabies treatment, and now he’s okay.<\/p>\n

It was along Highway 401 that she came to the shocking realization that she was going into labour. That is when she dialled 911 and paramedics rushed to the scene to help.<\/p>\n Two crews, one from Chatham and one from St. Thomas, were called to assist the soon-to-be mother of four. The crew from Chatham arrived at the scene first and helped to deliver Hunter Margeson before they arrived at the hospital.<\/p>\n Thus the legend of the \u201c401 baby\u201d was born.<\/p>\n On Wednesday, Margeson, her son Hunter, and their family showed up to EMS headquarters to surprise the crew that helped with the birth of her fourth child.<\/p>\n Chatham-Kent EMS General Manager Donald McLellan said the unit keeps in contact with the Margesons.<\/p>\n During Hunter\u2019s first birthday a couple of the paramedics made the trip up to Brantford to celebrate. In return, Lindsay makes attempts to make her presence felt by making appearances at events in Chatham or bringing treats for the medics.<\/p>\n \u201cAt Christmas, we sent them cupcakes,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s just appreciation\u2026 they have a job but they do more than they\u2019re asked sometimes.\u201d<\/p>\n The family continues to give back to the community in more ways than one., On April 13, 2018, the family gave a $455 cheque to the local safety village which went directly into programs at the Children\u2019s Safety Village<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n BIRTHDAYS <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n [89] Clint Eastwood<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [59] Chris Elliott, actor<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [54] Brooke Shields<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [43] Colin Farrell, actor<\/p>\n \u00a0______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n DID YOU KNOW?<\/u><\/strong> <\/p>\n It appears that the devices are better at detecting the deeper tones of men\u2019s voices.

Cold temperatures actually slow down the ripening process (same with avocadoes). But there is also a lot of moisture in most refrigerators which can cause bananas to turn brown or even black.<\/p>\n \u261e Bread:\u00a0 The fridge not only dries bread out, but at cold temperatures, bread will turn stale, dry, and tasteless. Also, bread acts as a kind of sponge and it will soak up whatever odors are lingering around your fridge.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u261e Ketchup:\u00a0 Doesn\u2019t need to be stored in the fridge because it is chock-full of preservatives.\u00a0 That\u2019s why all restaurants are able to leave it on their tables all day long. \u261e Chocolate:\u00a0 Although many people love cold chocolate, the ideal temperature for it is 65-68F.\u00a0 Only store chocolate in the fridge if conditions are so hot that it is at risk of melting.\u00a0 (As if there is any chance it being around long enough for THAT to happen\u2026)<\/p>\n \u261e Eggs (!!):\u00a0 In many countries, eggs aren\u2019t kept in the refrigerator in grocery stores or in homes. A study recently showed that it makes no difference whether or not you store your eggs in the fridge, so you might as well save yourself some fridge space. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n FRIDAY MAY 31ST<\/sup> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n TODAY\u2019S BIRTHDAYS <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n [89] Clint Eastwood<\/p>\n [54] Brooke Shields<\/p>\n [43] Colin Farrell, actor<\/p>\n ——————————————————————————————————————————-<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The\u00a0Toronto Raptors<\/strong>\u00a0beat\u00a0the\u00a0Golden State Warriors<\/strong>\u00a0118-109 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals last night . . . and it’s worth noting that Toronto is now 3-0 against Golden State this season.<\/p>\n Everyone talks about\u00a0Kawhi Leonard<\/strong>, but\u00a0Pascal Siakam<\/strong>\u00a0scored a team-high 32 points for the Raptors.\u00a0 That’s the most points in a Finals debut since\u00a0Kevin Durant<\/strong>\u00a0scored 36 in his first Finals game in 2012.<\/p>\n Speaking of Durant, the Warriors will reportedly\u00a0be without him again in Game 2 on Sunday . . . and there’s no guarantee that he’s able to make it back at all.\u00a0 He’s been out three weeks with a calf strain, and has yet to return to practice.<\/p>\n Durant was the Finals MVP in 2017 and 2018 for the Warriors.<\/p>\n By the way, some Raptors fans\u00a0supposedly\u00a0set off fireworks outside the Warriors’ hotel the night before the game . . . but the Warriors say they didn’t hear them.<\/p>\n This is the Warriors’ fifth straight Finals appearance.\u00a0 They’re 3-1 in their first four, but THIS was the first time they’ve lost Game 1.

The album was named after the street on which Thomas grew up just outside of Nashville.\u00a0[\u201cYeah, Center Point Road, basically, is the street I grew up on 20 minutes north of Nashville in a little town called Hendersonville. A lot of people think that I\u2019m from Georgia because my dad\u2019s from Georgia, and technically I was born in Georgia, but we moved to San Antonio when I was two and then moved to Nashville when I was three, cause my dad signed a record deal in Nashville in \u201995. But Center Point Road is a little street that I grew up on and when we wrote the song \u2018Center Point Road,\u2019 it was kind of this looking back song of like all the things that you cared about when you\u2019re growin\u2019 up and now the things that you don\u2019t care about, your successes, your failures, all your firsts, all your lasts, and all that kind of happened in this little town.”]<\/p>\n He will perform on the main stage at Nissan Stadium in Nashville on Friday, June 7th, as well as a special acoustic\u00a0Center Point Road\u00a0<\/em>album release event on Saturday, June 8th at Bridgestone Arena.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Jason Aldean Spends Hours Changing Up His Set List to Make It Right<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n This is something you don’t hear country singers talk about too much, but it’s interesting.\u00a0\u00a0JASON ALDEAN <\/strong>says he spends hours puzzling over his set list when he’s on tour, and changes it when it doesn’t feel right.<\/p>\n QUOTE, “I sit down for hours and stack songs and move ’em around, almost like a puzzle, and try to figure out what works best.\u00a0 But until you get on stage and start playing the songs and feel energy here . . . or less energy here . . . it’s hard to tell.”<\/p>\n He’s several weeks into his Ride All Night Tour right now and still finds himself in the dressing room moving things around trying to put together the perfect show.<\/p>\n Quote, “[Maybe] you’re playing too many ballads . . . you can find of feel it on stage.\u00a0 There’s a bit of a lag.\u00a0 You have to work a little hard later in the show to get them back up and going . . . so if you can fix it so you never have that, it’s a good thing.”<\/p>\n _____________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n <\/p>\n LUKE BRYAN TO PERFORM AT SIX NEW FARMS ON 2019 ‘FARM TOUR’ – (05\/31\/2019)<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Luke Bryan<\/strong>\u00a0will head out on his 11th annual\u00a0Farm Tour<\/em>\u00a0beginning on September 26th in Marshall, WI.
