| Q & A: Little Hocking 4-H club gets grant for walking trail project | | Posted Thursday, October 26, 2006 7:03:36 AM by Blog57 Team | | Members of the Decatur Buckeyes 4-H Club in Little Hocking are working on a project to mark trails in the community. The club has received a grant from the Richard and Nancy Stahl 4-H Endowment Fund for the project. Question: What is the club working on? Answer: A couple of weeks ago, we met down at the Belpre Township Park which is right behind Little Hocking Elementary School. There are some walking trails in the woods behind the school. A lot of people don't know they're there. Some of the trails cross creeks, some of them go up over top of big rock ledges. We were trying to come up with a community service project that our 4-H club could participate in. We got to talking to some of the township trustees and they said some of those trails if they were marked people might take advantage of them.... | |

| | | Bangkok Street Food Can Vie With Luxury Dining: Richard Vines | | Posted Thursday, August 03, 2006 9:05:54 AM by Blog57 Team | | Aug. 3 (Bloomberg) -- Visitors to Southeast Asia are often told street food offers the most authentic dining experience. There is a sweaty thrill to chowing down with the locals. Thailand, though, is the top location for Britons suffering food poisoning, according to a Norwich Union Plc survey, which might remove some of the sweetness from those roadside iced- pineapple chunks or spice from that late-night tom yam gong. Yet you can safely savor fabulous food cheaply in Bangkok at eateries such as Suda, on Sukhumvit Road. If you're happy to pay more, Celadon at the Sukhothai Hotel serves food that is a match for any Thai cuisine I have tried anywhere. Hotel chains such as the Hilton and the Marriott aren't such good bets. Suda is tricky to find.... | |

| | | Richard Gibbs ready to score again after 'Tucker' | | Posted Saturday, July 29, 2006 11:05:09 AM by Blog57 Team | | Former Daytonan Richard Gibbs wrote what little there is of the musical score for "John Tucker Must Die." He calls it "a very cute movie, and I think a lot of people will like it," and predicts it'll do well when it opens today. Gibbs already is looking beyond "John Tucker" -- far beyond it, and even beyond the movie business. The Seabreeze High School grad is looking at possibly developing his own record label. "Right now is a strange time in the movie industry," says the onetime member of the rock band Oingo Boingo (whose leader, Danny Elfman, is also a noted composer of film scores). "The record industry already has been through this." Our telephone interview was intended to be about "John Tucker," so he notes, "In all honesty, there is very little score in this.... | |
