Vapes include unknown ingredients that can cause damage yet unknown to young bodies. Reeves also warned vapes may be a direct gateway to the use of other substances. The prevalence of the use of e-cigarettes, or vaping, among school aged children has been on the rise across the country and Surry County has not been immune. Raising the national legal smoking age from 18 to 21 was hoped to offer some curb to the burgeoning practice of vaping but those effects have not yet materialized. “These awardees showed exemplary courage and leadership – under enormous pressure – with the highest level of professionalism, commitment to democracy, and dedication to public service,” said David Becker, CEIR executive director and founder.

Yokeley mentioned that she had “put up with” all the unpleasant as well as pleasant circumstances over the years which go hand and hand with city government service.

A Pennsylvania service provider has sued the trust that owns a now-closed Sioux City nursing home for thousands of dollars in unpaid bills and wants the trustees and beneficiaries held personally responsible for repayment. Eighteen residents transitioned to other skilled care facilities in the area before the facility closed on May 14. "Unfortunately, nursing home closures are a story we have seen all too often. Between longstanding Medicaid underfunding, the ongoing staffing crisis, and costs from COVID, nursing homes are facing unprecedented pressures," said Mark B. Deak, executive director of the SDHCA. "When closures occur, South Dakota communities lose access to a vitally important service for the elderly and disabled." "Healthcare workers are in high demand for all departments. We hope they will remain with the facility until the residents are transferred, but we know the surrounding facilities are already reaching out offering positions to our team," the statement said.
ST. MARYS — At Elk Haven Nursing Home, the motto is “the more the merrier” when it comes to volunteers who bring cheer to residents during the holiday season. Last week, the Federal Trade Commission started work on a rule to crack down on unfair and deceptive fees across all industries, fees that were never disclosed — never disclosed. And there was no way to avoid the fee, like processing fees for concert tickets or like resort fees.

There was vigorous questioning of the process from Commissioner Tim DeHaan who realized that taking the challenge down two paths was unnecessary. He said the poll worker was in error to have given any indication on how a voter should vote. There has been no discussion, it should be noted, of any intentional malfeasance by the poll worker.

Huff, Bell, and North Carolina’s election officials were commended for their work in serving the state’s voters before, during, and after the 2020 elections that created a cacophony of complaint.

Sharon Gates-Hodges passed away just days before the general election in which she and Jonczak were seeking one of two Dobson commissioner’s seats.

In August, clinic operators began welcoming patients to the new location — a vacant structure just down the road at 951 Rockford St. formerly occupied by Dr. Glenn Pfitzner, a longtime gastroenterologist who retired. It contains more than four times the space of the original building that is about 70 years old. Agencies who receive funding from United Fund of Surry are evaluated and reviewed annually, and financial allocations are made based on the agencies’ needs, as well as on the impact they are having on meeting the current needs of the community.
Their version of the classic is a bare-bones production with the emphasis on the characters and Dickens’ enduring message of goodwill to our fellow humans.
