Bath & Body Works in Concord, New Hampshire, is Closing - wokq.com

Walking around the mall in my hometown was such a prominent piece of my childhood. In middle school we would get dropped off at the Searstown Mall in Leominster, MA, and it felt like the world was our oyster.

First we would pop into Strawberries and buy the new TLC CD. Then it was off to Filene's to use all of the free makeup samples and walk out thinking we were model material, but in real life we looked like we were auditioning for the circus. We never bought anything because our parents only gave us $20, and that was reserved for a Munchie Mania and Fribble at Friendly's for lunch. Then we would pop into the arcade called "Time Out", watch kids play "Dance Dance Revolution" and occasionally play ourselves. And let us not forget Bath & Body Works! OH THE NOSTALGIA! If I took a whiff of Cucumber Melon or Sweet Pea today it would immediately transport me back to 2002.

The mall was the place where everything happened! If you were getting serious with a boy, you would take a few laps around the mall while holding hands (fingers laced) and everyone would know that you were bf/gf status by Monday.

Just as the Searstown Mall was a huge part of my childhood, the Steeplegate Mall in Concord was a large part of so many people's teenage years. With malls dying a slow and painful death thanks to Covid and the undeniable convenience of online shopping, it's sad to think that these places may cease to exist and the next generation won't get to enjoy them.

It was posted in the Concord NH Community Facebook group that Bath & Body Works at the Steeplegate Mall is closing for good on January 22nd. Everything in the store is 75% off but that is not because they are going out of business. They just happen to be in the middle of their semi annual sale. The post stated that all of the employees are being moved to the Manchester store.

A lot of people were sad to see this news and said that BBW was on the only store they ever went to! But alas, another one bites the dust. :( Make sure you stock up on all of your antibacterial hand gel and body lotion before they close their doors for good.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles.
