An unusual octagon-shaped bed-and-breakfast in Oakland, built in 1850, has long thrived not only on tourism but on winter trade by visiting professors.
Henry H. Wildes Jr. and Sharon M. Wildes sold the Pressey House, at 32 Belgrade Road, to Ronald and Nicole Goodheart for an undisclosed price. The list price was $649,000. John McCarthy of Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Real Estate represented the sellers and Jordan Stolt of Summit Real Estate represented the buyers in the deal. Also participating in the transaction were Andy Rhoades of Kennebec Saving Bank and attorney Jerome Gamache.
Located at the north end of Messalonskee Lake, the house was built between 1854 and 1858 by H.T. Pressey. It was put on the National Register of Historical Places in 1977, according to the inn’s website.
Video that was widely circulated online showed the officer confronting Adam Kidger in Accrington, Lancashire.
In the clip, Mr Kidger is heard saying: You re harassing me. What for? I ve done nothing wrong.
The officer squares up to him and says: If you want to f ing step to me and push your chest out and something like that then fine. I ll lock you up. We ll do that shall we?
Adam Kidger (above) was seen on film being aggressively challenged by a police officer in Accrington, Lancashire, on April 17. The officer, who told Mr Kidger that he would make something up to justify an arrest, is now being investigated for gross misconduct
THE leader of Blackburn with Darwen Council has expressed his pleasure at the appointment of Chris Rowley as Lancashire s new chief constable. Cllr Mohammed Khan was part of the panel of councillors which confirmed the Humberside deputy in the post earlier this week. He said: “We enjoy a really great relationship with Lancashire Police and this close working happens right across our services and the various parts of the constabulary. The policing style we have locally is something to be very proud of, it’s a big strength. Andy Rhodes did a brilliant job, and we know that Chris will continue to build on all the efforts to work together to best serve our communities.”

Today is Cyber Monday, which doesn t mean as much this year because the related sales have been going on for much of November as retailers try to milk every available dollar they can. However, like you, I m doing a lot of shopping, both for others (yes, I m going to cheat and mostly give Amazon gift cards but some gifts) and myself.
Since this entire column is about products, I ll skip the product of the week and focus on what I think are some of the best deals or products that stand out as game changers in their segment and aren t too expensive.
