Abstract:
When a hurricane strikes, power lines often go down, endangering persons who may come near them and disrupting vital communication links and public services. To protect their lines and customer services during future storms, the Brunswick Electric Membership Corporation (BEMC) will bury its lines. A grant of $6.2 million will help relocate 88 miles of power lines underground in four Brunswick County coastal communities.

Abstract:
When Walter Hinshaw retired from the yarn business, he thought he was through with it. However, a trip to the dumpster five years ago started him on a new career. Hinshaw brought back strands of rope which he soon twisted into a doll, called a Dumpster Doll. Since then he has made over 7,000 and given away 6,000. Popular across North Carolina, the dolls have found their way to twenty-five other states and several European and African countries.
