Reviva Ibis working to reinvent waste
One more ibis has made its home at the Lakes Creek Road Waste Management Facility – but this tip turkey is set to help reinvent the ways we think about waste.
It’s been just over a month since social enterprise Resource Recovery Australia (RRA) opened the doors of the ‘Reviva Ibis’ reuse store, and in a short time they’ve made a big impact through their ‘#Waste2Wages’ business model.
Waste and Recycling Councillor Shane Latcham said the ibis makes the perfect mascot for the new reuse store.
“We’re quick to talk trash about ibis – just like we are about our rubbish – but it’s time we change our mind on both,” said Cr Latcham.

I loved “”What Lies West,” an Indie film starring two very different but likeable young women in a coming of age story. Nicolette (played by Nicolette Ellis) is a popular 22-year-old who’s a recent college graduate. She majored in acting, but isn’t quite ready to head to L.A. with her friends. We learn that Nicolette’s not quite over the pain her boyfriend Alex (Jack Vincenty) inflicted when he married someone else.
Alex still tries to keep Nicolette on his string, but reneges on a promise to hire her at the Sonoma Valley winery he runs for his family. Instead, he offers to find an image consultant to further her acting dreams. This should give her an “edge” over other aspiring actresses heading for Hollywood. Nicolette moves in with her parents, but her plans for a relaxing summer are overturned by her concerned mother.

MARLOW, Okla. (TNN) - Voters in Marlow officially elected Jeff Prater as mayor Tuesday.
He’s been serving as interim mayor since last fall when former mayor Brian Davis resigned. Prater went up against Michael Waller and won the vote by 80%.
He said he’s always had a servant’s heart and wants to give back to his community.
“To the community and people that voted for me and supported me,” he said. “I want to represent you well. I want to do what’s best for our city. Reach out to me, reach out to a councilman. Reach out to the city if there’s any needs or concerns.”
Addressing the fear of needles is essential to public health right now as Covid-19 vaccines roll out around the globe. For individuals considering avoiding a Covid-19 vaccination due to their phobia, seeking treatment could be a life-and-death decision.
