The keys to its appeal were that it looked superficially like the much finer and much more expensive blown iridescent glass by Tiffany, Loetz and others and also that the cheerful bright finish caught the light even in dark corners of the home.

A legend tells of a train wreck in the area in the early 20th century. A travelling circus was on the train, and from it a group of chimpanzees escaped and interbred with the local alligator population.[citation needed]

I don't think hotels are zoned residential though?

This is one of the few effective ways people have been able to shut down lovely Airbnb landlords?

Many dancers incorporate the move in their repertoire as a minor addition to a set. Whether in the beginning, middle, or end of a set, a dab is usually used to mark a drop. In Korean pop music (K-pop) some South Koreans adopted the move,[27] along with Whip and Nae Nae.[28]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oggy_Oggy_Oggy

quote:

In the 1990s, in Birmingham, UK, when some children played outside in areas with very few people, and who became temporarily split up and lost from their friends or family while playing, they would shout “Oggy, oggy, oggy” for their friends or family to hear their general direction and to respond with “Oi, oi, oi”. They used this to try and find each other again through sound and hearing. This may not have been limited to the 1990s, and may not have been limited to Birmingham, UK.

The Boeing 737-200QC is the undisputed workhorse of the skies.
As of 28 August 2018, NO evidence has been provided to verify the reported incident of any drone strike actually occurred. The Canadian Transport Safety Authority has not investigated this incident and it was only 'confirmed' by Canadian Transport Minister Marc Garneau - and done so without any official investigation or evidence concluded from any official investigation. In fact according to Transport Canada's official incident database, the reported incident occurred at 2,400ft altitude and the database says the aircraft was about 6.1nm (11.3km) from the runway at the time of impact; indicating clear errors in the facts as stated by Canada's Transport Minister. Prior claims made by the office of the Transport Minister, regarding drone strikes against aircraft have subsequently been regarded by Canada's own aviation safety investigations authority as having most probably not likely to have occurred given review of all available evidence. Official Transport Canada correspondence continue to reference reports and incidents in manners which have been officially concluded with results that disprove and contradict the positions published by the office of the Transportation Minister.

De Palma met with Bob Hoskins to discuss the role in case De Niro, the director's first choice for the part, turned it down. When De Niro took the part, De Palma mailed Hoskins a check for £20,000 with a "Thank You" note, which prompted Hoskins to call up De Palma and ask him if there were any more movies he didn't want him to be in.[9]
