Perhaps you never realised that you needed a moat. But now that you know there are houses out there which have them, that little voice in the back of your head is calling to you.

An Englishmans home may be his castle, but there are some features of the average castle which nobody needs. A dungeon, for example why would you want a cellar designed to bedark, damp and unpleasant to be in? And, frankly, raising a portcullis every time you wanted to drive into the garage would be an endless faff.

But theres something about the idea of having a moat which cant help but make you grin. And that particular piece of medieval design is one of the features of Kirk Hall.

The bulk of the house, which lies in the heart of Norfolk lies, isnt medieval at all, but rather an attractive Grade II-listed family home which dates from about 1840 with various later additions, such as the main faade thats on the market for 1.15 million via Savills.

Its situated a short drive from Thetford Forest (the largest lowland pine forest in Britain), and there is no doubt that the magnificent grounds of Kirk Hall take inspiration from the East Anglian landscape in which they lie.

The house is surrounded on all sides by formal lawned areas that fade away into shrubs, herbaceous borders, orchards and woodland underplanted with spring bulbs.

As well as featuring a moat around some of the property, Kirk Hall also features its own lake.

Nature follows you inside, with exposed oak beams throughout the 4,000sq ft property, while there are fine views of the gardens from the dining area in the open-plan space which incorporates most of the living, eating and sitting space, beautifully-framed beneath the distinctive vaulted ceiling by a full height window.

There are several more formal rooms are to the front of the house, including elegant dining and drawing room both double aspect with the latter having a rectangular bay with delightful window seat looking out the moat.

Theres also a large office, spacious utility and boot room, while upstairs there are either four or five bedrooms, depending on how you choose to arrange things.

Xavier: This is our latest Covid-Era interview, this one with Seattle conceptual/expressionist sculptor Tom Gormally. Over the years, I have been in several group shows with Tom and I have always been super-impressed by his mix of hand-carved elements set into conceptually-charged mindscapes and often humorous, rebus-type combines. I jumped at the chance to talk to another sculptor and as you will see my level of glee was absolutely palpable!

Xavier: Please take a moment to introduce yourself and describe your work for us!

Tom Gormally: I have been studying and making art, with many different materials, for over forty years. I primarily work with wood and light to create sculptural scenes that combine contemporary structure and folk-art aesthetics to lay out my thoughts and feelings as I process whats happening in the world around me. Also, the folk art of the American Southwest blended with a sense of scale and physical presence that came from my time as a jet mechanic in the Navy stationed in New Mexico during the Vietnam era.

The influence of folk art and my time in the military were some of the first inspirations for my art, and those threads from that time in my life have remained strong influences on both the style and substance of my work.

Xavier: How long have you been working as a sculptor?

Tom Gormally: I started art school in 1973 and attended graduate school, where I created art and taught undergraduate classes from 1977-79.

Id say that Ive been working as a sculptor since my first appearance in a gallery group show in 1975, so about 45 years.

Xavier: Very cool! So do I sense a kind of Joseph Beuys, personal/ autobiographical approach to making the work or something else, something more?

Tom Gormally: My work is largely very personal in nature, and sometimes autobiographical. A lot of my work is a manifestation and a means of processing events or situations in the world (particularly relating to politics/the environment) that have impacted me emotionally.

**

**

Xavier: Lets talk about your process for a bit. It looks to me like you like to work in metaphor, but with a sense of humor, perhaps akin to someone like Dennis Oppenheim or Bruce Nauman, but with a more personal scope and size. Can you tell us a little bit about the processes that you go through to make a piece, perhaps using a sculpture that you have made in the past or one that you are currently working on. Do you start with the idea or are the materials a starting point for you? This is very exciting to me as a sculptor its been awhile since Ive had a chance to talk to another sculptor about their processes.

Tom Gormally: Thats a great question, thanks! Looking back, Ive found that I tend to work in series that are often inspired by a single idea that can be anything from a metaphor that hits me as I fall asleep, to a book or a crutch found in a second-hand shop.

Typically, after having the idea I start to write about the concept and draw/sketch out ideas. Theres a phrase I like from Japser Johns that Ill paraphrase: Take an object. Do something to it. Then do something else to it; the simplicity of starting from one object or metaphor/idea and modulating it stepwise by just following my intuition clicks for me. For instance, the piece Im currently working on is part of my Fox series, and so is a modulation of the core idea that right now in our country the fox is in the henhouse.

However, for this particular piece, I started with a series of drawings in watercolor which informed one of the first modulations of the core form, that the fox would be partially submerged.

Xavier: That is my favorite Johns quote as well. And is very definitely a guiding principle for my work !

Tom Gormally: Thats fantastic!

Once I get to the drawings, then I think about scale and materials. On this most recent piece, I decided to carve the fox first. All of the foxes in this series have been hand-carved, and so carving the fox first really informs the feel and the scale of the piece. Once I get to the point where I have a polished-enough fox that I can visualize in the scene, I start work on constructing the other elements. Sometimes I need to see the central figure in situ to recognize what does and doesnt excite me about what Ive visualized. Sometimes elements are thrown out, and other times I realize that I need to make additions to get to the visual impact that Id envisioned.

The stacked-elements of Brancusi inform a lot of the structural decisions I make, in adding or subtracting levels to the piece. I try to keep the overall macro level structure of the piece fairly simple, but make the interactions within and between components and levels complex.

Lastly, light elements and internal lighting have always played a big part in my work, and so thinking about how I want light to highlight or shroud certain aspects of the structure and form is an important part of my thinking, particularly when it comes to materials.

**

**

Xavier: Can I get you to speak a little bit more about Brancusi; your relation to him and how it affects the form of your work. You start to go into it and I missed following up on itcould you elaborate, please!

Tom Gormally: One of the things that I always really appreciated about Brancusis work is how he took folk-like elements from Romanian architecture and folk art and reinvigorated these influences through his own modern vision. The results were stacked abstract forms that draw the eye up towards a more dynamic sculptural element at the apex. I am doing that with my work as well. There are geometric forms that I stack (or layer) in my own way, with a carved sculptural form at the apex. These forms lead the eye up from the floor (or sometimes down from the ceiling) to the central element that acts as a focal point for the narrative of the piece.

I wrote papers on Brancusi when I was an undergraduate; I loved his work. One of his famous quotes stays with me, inspiring me to follow his example in being uncompromising with his pursuit and execution of his personal vision. Rodin wanted to hire Brancusi as a studio assistant Brancusi said, an acorn cannot grow beneath a mighty oak.

Despite the opportunity to work under one of the greatest sculptors of his time, Brancusi turned it down because he wanted to maintain the autonomy of his artistic expression, without being influenced by Rodin.

Xavier: That is an excellent point, though I do have to say that I have been lucky enough to take classes. work with and TA for some wonderfully impressive artists from Wayne Thiebaud to Lynn Hershman Leeson and have valued any advice or mentoring that each could give.

Moving right along, I would like to explore further, how metaphor works in your art. When I was in undergraduate school, we had installation artist Robert Irwin talk to us about how, for him art was all about communication and that that meant metaphor. How does language and/or metaphor fit into your work?

Tom Gormally: As far as metaphor, one through-line in my work is that I want the viewer to engage in an exercise in interpretation when theyre looking at my work, and a lot of that is done through metaphor. In addition, I feel that the folk-art aesthetic adds accessibility and provides an entry point so that the viewer can interpret the piece through their own experiences and perspective.

Xavier: Also, along the lines of language, a good amount of your work looks almost like you make stages or frames, upon which you create your statements or sentences. Does that ring true?

Tom Gormally: Yes! This definitely rings true with me. Ive often wanted to create stage sets for a play or a dance, as I feel like the way I work could easily translate to that!

A lot of the time the statements or sentences that are said on those stages end up being the names of the works, or paraphrased at least, to provide a little more room for interpretation.

**

**

Xavier: Do you see your foxes as being like the heroes in your pieces, the ones generating action in the pieces?

Tom Gormally: Thats really interesting, actually. Could you clarify if you mean like prototypical heroes in a mythological sense or protagonists in a narrative sense?

Xavier: Yes, but that would cut off an avenue of discussion. Which or both are you thinking?

Tom Gormally: The foxes are definitely center-stage in these pieces and are the agents generating action, so I would say that theyre a protagonist, but theyre definitely not heroes or heroic they are still the main force of movement, but that force is humorously insidious!

Xavier: Oooh! Sounds awesome! Please explain!

Tom Gormally: I dont want to say anything too explicitly, but this series began in late 2016 following an analogy that came to me while falling asleep: that the FOX was in the henhouse. The fox is kind of a Vaudevillian comically terrible character, whose hijinks are at once horrifying and mesmerizing.

If you look at the figuration of the fox, theres a lot of smirks, winks, and smarminess!

Xavier: Lets talk a little but more about the fox in a different sense. Your work has a kind of Midwest feel to it, reminding me peripherally of folks like Terry Allen who use a good amount of humor in their work. How do you feel that humor works in your art?

Tom Gormally: Funnily enough, I grew up in the midwest and actually showed at the same gallery as Terry Allen when I was in grad school! The Morgan Gallery in Kansas City.

Xavier: That is very funny! I love his work and, though you would never think this about me, I especially love his music! We had a bunch of Montana artists come to my undergraduate school, because Mike Sarich who taught art at UNR was from Montana. I got to meet Terry Allen as an undergraduate and have a few drinks with him and the professorsback in the day!

Tom Gormally: Humor is one of the most important aspects of my work. Its a fundamental part of my personality and a major way that I identify with my Irish heritage, particularly dark humor, storytelling, and wise-cracking.

A lot of my work comes from processing very intense, serious, and sometimes dark concepts and emotions. The humourous aspects take the edge off of that, and humanize in a similar way to the folk aesthetic that I talked about earlier. Additionally, I use humor as a way of processing and healing and reorienting myself and others around me in my own life.

I feel like, in large part, Irish culture and stories passed on to me in my own life were done by this pivot between serious storytelling and wise-cracking about that same story to lighten some of the impact of what was being conveyed.

Xavier: Any examples from your life or childhood?

Tom Gormally: It was the way that my whole family behaved as I was growing up. Even when what was being relayed was serious, there was always an element of humor. And then when I went to Ireland during the peace process to participate in the Horsehead International Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition, I found that same culture/attitude/style that I had grown up with!

Xavier: Very cool, family and history is very important to understanding who one is. Could you go into how you work with both found objects and things that you sculpt into personal forms. How do those two seemingly, disparate languages work together in your work?

**

Tom Gormally: Found objects become the focus of or a part of a work when they initiate a story. Sometimes they sit in my studio for months or years before I look at them and think about how theyre connected to the world, and that connection sparks a dialog between story and form that plays out in the scenes that I conceptualize and create!

Often the found object isnt in it its original form, I transform it to fit it with the story that Im telling and then base the aesthetic of the piece off of my visualization of that story.

Xavier: Do you ever feel as though you know already what it is you need and are just waiting for the objects to show up?

Tom Gormally: No, the process is almost always the other way around!

Xavier: Cool! How can people find your artwork? Do you have a website?

Tom Gormally: Yes my website is TomGormallySculpture.com.

I also post work in progress regularly on Instagram.

Interview With PNW Sculptor Tom Gormally! On Foxes, Crutches and the Apocalypse! Our Ten-Year Anniversary Continues! - seattlepi.com

FLOYD Mayweather is said to have earned over a $1billion in a boxing career that saw him go undefeated in 50 professional fights.

And although he has been forced to deny he's broke because of his lavish spending, should he be hard-up there's always his mega car collection he could sell.

Pretty Boy has amassed his own fleet of dream motors which is said to be worth 20million.

It includes a series of Rolls-Royces worth over a staggering 3million, as well as four Bugatti Veyron supercars that cost 1.7million.

But what's unique about 'Money' Mayweather's cars is that they mostly come in two colours - white or black - and are divided between his two mansions in LA and Las Vegas.

In Los Angeles they're black, and in Las Vegas they're white.

Scanning through 43-year-old Mayweather's Las Vegas collection in his palatial Nevada abode, you'll see some wondrous toys.

The most exceptional being the car collector's favourite, the Bugatti Veyron.

Just like Cristiano Ronaldo, Mayweather is a huge fan of the Italian car maker.

He seemingly owns four - one in white, one in black, and the exceptions to the two-tone rule being in red and silver.

The other vehicles include a Lamborghini Aventador (275,000), as well as a Ferrari 488 worth around 238,000.

There's even a classic Porsche 911, but the Bentley Mulsanne - the most expensive Bentley you can buy with a starting price of 238,700 - takes centre stage.

Occasionally, in true Mayweather style, he'll throw in a wad of notes to show off the interior of his motors in an Instagram post.

And he'll even park them in front of a private jet, just to show off his impressive range.

In LA it's a similar story.

Living in a plush Beverly Hills mansion, Mayweather has a big garage to fill.

And the former light middleweight couldn't wait to show us what he had in his bunker.

Astonishingly, we spotted FIVE Rolls-Royces worth over 2million.

There was a classic Phantom, like in his Vegas pad, costing 355,000, a Phantom Drophead Coupe coming in at 367,000, a Dawn valued at 264,000 and a Wraith costing 364,000.

On top of that, a large Cullinan that would've set him back around 300,000. There was also another Ferrari 488, as well as a Mercedes Maybach (172,000).

Recent additions to Mayweather's LA fleet are his Mercedes G63 AMG (155,000), and he even has his own branded van.

For Mayweather it's clear.

It's doesn't matter if it's black or white, as long as it's luxurious and expensive, that'll do.

Floyd Mayweathers 20m supercar collection has white vehicles in Las Vegas and same motors in black in LA - The Sun

On Tuesday, when Singapore was at the midpoint in the four-week Covid-19 circuit breaker meant to last until May 4 to stem the spread of the coronavirus, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced the extension of the period by another four weeks to June 1.

Existing measures were also further tightened. Entry restrictions to hot spot areas such as popular wet markets were put in place to control crowding. The number of businesses deemed essential services and allowed to operate was cut.

The extension of the measures aims to minimise people movement and prevent mingling in the community. One key reason was that the daily number of unlinked cases - infections that cannot be traced to previous cases - did not decline even after two weeks of the circuit breaker, indicating the continual presence of undetected cases in the community.

Naturally, people are disappointed that the circuit breaker has to be extended. The coronavirus situation has also produced various negative reactions that both leaders and people themselves have to deal with. In this essay, I will share some suggestions on how to handle negative reactions and avoid the pitfalls produced by our human biases.

The tightening of the circuit breaker measures would have dismayed and inconvenienced many, even though support packages for businesses and workers will be extended through next month.

Those isolated at home or in their dormitories will find it increasingly difficult to cope - psychologically and in their daily functioning.

For example, working from home through telecommuting saves commuting time but may also create tension between work and personal or family life when individuals are unable to juggle competing demands now occurring in the same physical location (home) and time period.

Working parents with young children in particular may find it difficult to balance working from home and having to attend to children's needs given that schools and childcare facilities are closed.

It also becomes more challenging if demanding supervisors expect their subordinates to attend online meetings and work outside their normal working hours. Those in positions of power need to be more respectful of the people they lead and not encroach on hours after work.

In addition to having to multitask and deal with competing demands, dealing with a pandemic like Covid-19 is already a stressful experience that can readily generate negative emotions or reactions.

People may experience fear (Will I get infected?), anxiety (Will my business survive the extended circuit breaker?), hopelessness (We will never recover), loneliness (There is no one that I can turn to), confusion (Is it better to wear or not wear a mask when I am jogging outside?), anger (This violation of the safe distancing rule is unacceptable!), feelings of injustice (This differential treatment of the two violations is unfair - it's double standards) or even denial and engage in bargaining behaviours (Can I just not wear the mask for this one time?) or withdrawal behaviours (I don't care any more).

ST ILLUSTRATION: MIEL

For some individuals, boredom, feelings of injustice or self-centred interests will override their sensibility and sense of social responsibility, and they will violate circuit breaker measures (either negligently or knowingly) or even influence others to do likewise.

Negative emotions can easily get magnified. They can create a negative spiral that gets out of control and proportion when we do not recognise that the feelings are driving our attitudes and actions, do nothing to address them or reinforce the feelings by engaging only with others who share the same sentiments.

All of us need to learn now how to deal with negative reactions and mitigate their impact, especially when it is possible that the Covid-19 crisis will get worse.

How then to respond effectively to deal with negative events and manage our negative gut emotions and reactions? I suggest we adopt what I call the 3Rs approach - refrain, reflect and resolve.

Refrain Refrain means to control the impulse to immediately argue, advocate or act in a way that is driven by how we are feeling at the moment.

It worsens the situation when others are also consumed with emotions and not thinking rationally. Never react in a patronising or provocative manner - it will only intensify the experience of our negative emotion. For example, if someone in line is standing too close to you, gently gesture to the person to observe the safe distancing marking on the floor, and do so with a smile.

More generally, when dealing with disagreement, be composed, not confrontational. It helps to be calm and cordial. Ask questions to clarify and ascertain facts.

Treat others with dignity and respect, and they will become more reasonable, and more likely to focus on the positives than magnify the negatives.

Reflect Think through and identify the information or event, and the sources of our stress and strain.

Learn to see things from another's perspective. Reflect on how things have come to this situation where we have to deal with negative events and why we are reacting negatively. This often involves reinterpreting the situation because we tend to first interpret things in a way to fit our beliefs and position.

Rather than see the prolonged circuit breaker period as a nuisance, we can reframe the experience as an opportunity to take control of our diet or learn a new skill. We may want to relook our business model, consider a job switch, rearrange work priorities or revisit career goals.

Make an effort to gather information from multiple sources and try to be objective. Consult others who have expertise, especially those who can be trusted to tell the truth and provide sincere advice. Identify and acknowledge the mistakes we may have made.

Resolve Take concrete actions to reduce damage and stressors, repair relationships and resolve issues. Be humble and seek help when needed.

When there are disagreements, focus on common and complementary interests, even if differences remain.

So, when negotiating work-related arrangements to adjust to the circuit breaker measures, both employers and employees need to aim for win-win outcomes. This often involves being gracious and generous in spirit, without compromising facts, truth and integrity.

When an issue is successfully resolved, learn from the experience and identify relevant features of the solution process to adapt and apply to other situations or future ones.

In a crisis, people must learn to deal with their negative emotions, and leaders too need to manage these public reactions. But how people react is also influenced by their leaders' attitudes and actions.

So, leaders in all sectors and at all levels need to understand how negative reactions emerge and how they relate to the major types of human cognitive biases. They should self-reflect regularly to avoid themselves falling prey to these biases when they make decisions and judgment calls.

I have previously written on various well-established human biases. Let me reiterate three types of biases that we need to guard against in this circuit breaker period.

Overconfidence bias Overconfidence is ubiquitous when humans make judgments and decisions. Most people are also overconfident about the accuracy of their forecasts.

There is a substantial gap between what people think they know and what they actually know.

Research shows that this disconnect between self-belief and reality is larger for people with higher academic achievements, experts in various fields, and those in positions of authority and power.

Confirmatory bias Confirmatory bias is the human tendency to selectively seek out and interpret information in a way that will likely confirm one's preconceived belief or position. We see what we expect to see.

The same decision, event, statement or data can mean something very different to different individuals or groups.

The problem of confirmatory bias gets more severe if the authority structure and dynamics in the policy team encourage groupthink, where members of a highly cohesive group withhold dissenting views to go along with majority opinion. Many misunderstandings and incorrect conclusions could have been avoided if decision makers had asked: "What else could it mean?"

Causal attribution bias When we try to understand or explain why we do well, we tend to attribute our own successes to internal factors such as our own ability, effort, plans, choices or judgments.

But we tend to attribute our failures to external factors - we say bad luck, the task is difficult, the problem is complex, or the situation has changed.

And when we make causal attributions about others, we tend to do the reverse - we see external factors in their successes and internal factors in their failures.

That is why public perceptions often differ significantly from leaders' perceptions. Consider, for example, the spike in Covid-19 cases among foreign workers in the dormitories. Leaders may say this is due to a rapidly evolving situation that is uncertain, complex and volatile.

But the public - especially when they do not have relevant information or understand trade-offs involved - is more likely to attribute the negative outcome to the leaders' problem-solving ability, believing that they were careless or incompetent.

Conversely, leaders may choose to credit a serendipitous or positive outcome to good policy design and execution. But the public is more likely to attribute it to luck, or to take the view that a leader with ample resources should be expected to produce such results.

Since the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak, Singapore has rightly emphasised that what is at stake are people's lives and livelihood, that people's well-being must be at the centre of what we do in managing the crisis.

We can be realistically confident that we will defeat the coronavirus if we are self-disciplined and socially responsible, and if we find our leaders trustworthy.

Our trust in leaders increases if they are able to solve urgent practical problems, say what they mean and mean what they say, are objective, transparent, fair and accountable when they make judgments and decisions, and understand, empathise with and prioritise the people's needs and concerns.

Also, regardless of who we are, we need to better understand why people react the way they do, and how to deal with negative emotions and experiences. This affects our adaptability and resilience as individuals, families, organisations and a society.

When we understand people's perceptions and reactions, we will all be more psychologically prepared to face the Covid-19 crisis and its great disruptions, both now and in the future.

Safi Mallick, a Facebook user who identifies as Nadia District Congress Media Coordinator, shared a video of a man hounded by a mob. The accompanying caption in Bengali claimed that a Muslim man was tortured by goons of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) during the lockdown in Madhya Pradesh.

The Bengali text is as follows, Another page named Save India has also shared the clip with the same claim.

A reverse-search of one of the keyframes of the video led us to an April 18 tweet byNDTVjournalist Anurag Dwary which carried the same video. Sanitation workers attacked in MP, he wrote in Hindi.

According to anNDTVreport. A group of sanitation workers in Madhya Pradesh were attacked by a mob of locals in Dewas district on Friday [April 17] when they went to a neighbourhood to clean the streets. One of them, who was attacked with an axe, has been admitted to hospital after his hand was badly injured. The shocking attack comes weeks after similar incidents in the state in which healthcare workers and civic officials were attacked locals when they went to screen residents for coronavirus.

The report also states that the main accused is Adil who attacked Deepak and his colleagues with an axe.

The Indian Expressquoted the police as saying, The incident took place early Friday when Ashish Rajaur and Deepak Kalosia, sanitation workers attached with the local civic body, were cleaning a gutter in Koyala Mohalla. Alleging that the cleaning operation was spreading stench in the locality, Aadil allegedly attacked Ashish but he defended himself with a spade. The report added the names of the other accused Habib and Aarif.India Today identified the fourth accused as Gop Khan. During interrogation, Aadil claimed that he indulged in violence as Gop Khan had told them that since the lockdown, namaazees and followers of the Tablighi Jamaat were hounded by government workers, the ASP said, reads theIndia Todayreport.

A similar incident had occurred in Indore where a 30-year-old history-sheeter, Paras Bourasi, allegedly attacked three health workers, including a woman.

A video of sanitation workers attacked in Madhya Pradesh was therefore shared as a Muslim youth attacked by goons of the BJP.

When it comes to senior living options, mobile homes and RVs are options that represent a wide range of seniors. Mobile home parks and RV parks offer small lots and community space that is maintained by the park.

A mobile home park much like a condominium association where the common spaces are maintained by the park owners and staff and where tenants have a small lot which they care for. When a park is deemed to be a senior mobile home park, they have rules about the minimum age of the people who live there. Most parks offer senior living for people aged 55 and older and do not permit those who are younger to live there. The park and its amenities are geared towards seniors and may have noise and usage restrictions. As military as that sound, these parks create an environment that is senior friendly and designed to enhance the quality of life for those who live in the park.

A senior RV park is somewhat different and yet, very much the same. The big difference is that there are not mobile homes in an RV park and the idea is that the tenant population is transient and not temporary. In a senior mobile home park, the majority of the people who live there, do so long-term.

Senior living mobile home parks are often affordable alternatives to living in a single family home. Most tenants pay rent on their space and own the mobile home. That means they pay a low monthly rent and can live in a larger home. Mobile homes come in single, double, and triple wide width. They can be one bedroom and larger. Most lots are small offering enough space for the mobile home and a small yard.

Another benefit is that the community is organized around the needs of seniors. People here can enjoy the park's amenities without having to compete with those amenities with kids and families.

The park's amenities are designed around senior needs and they provide an opportunity to socialize with people in the same age range.

There are many benefits of living in a senior mobile home park. If you are traveling in your RV, senior mobile home parks often have spaces that allow you to park your RV for months on end. They make great destinations for Snowbirds and other seniors who escape the harsher weather in one area of the world and to take up temporary residence in another.

The price to stay in asenior mobile home park vary by park. Most are very affordable. Many parks have space rental in the $200-$300 per month range, which is appealing for anyone on a fixed income. Some parks may rent space for as high as $1,000 a month, but those parks usually offer special amenities like a gated community, security and on-sight maintenance.

How you pay depends on the park and your arrangement. For RV owner, rent is often paid online at the time of your reservation. This means that you can pay with a credit card. For those who live in the park long-term, the rent is typically paid by check, though many parks are now allowingpayment of rent online or in person using a credit or debit card.

Long-term residents usually have a lease or rental agreement and pay their rent monthly. RV owners and those residents who are temporary, may pay rent weekly or in one-lump sum.

In short, there are usually many options for paying for rent in a mobile home park or RV Park.

Most communities have at least one senior mobile home park within their communities. You can begin your search online. There many websites that are designed for seniors.

Many sites are area specific and focus on the local community. It is not difficult to find a senior living park near you.

If you are a senior who is looking for another housing option, consider the benefits of living in a senior mobile home park. Often what you will find is that the rent is affordable and can help free up money in your budget, especially if you are on a fixed income. As rosy as that all sounds, there are drawbacks. Mobile homes can be frustrating when it comes time to repair them as many of the appliances and other parts are not a standard size. Another drawback can be the cost to heat and cool a mobile home as not all of them are energy efficient. Knowing that upfront helps you find a mobile home that is perfect for you and without a lot of the headaches.

If you live in an RV part of the year and are looking for a place to park for a few months, senior living mobile home parks often make great destinations as most have full hookups and access to electricity and potable water.

UPDATE: A man who shot a New Jersey State Police detective investigating a trailer park home invasion by five women was charged with the attempted murder of a law enforcement officer, authorities announced Tuesday.

Najzeir Naz Hutchings, 21, and two other Bridgeton men were all armed Saturday night when they pulled up to the Harding Woods mobile home park on Harding Highway in Pittsgrove, they said.

NJSP Detective Richard Hershey was investigating a home invasion from earlier that evening, Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal, New Jersey State Police Superintendent Patrick J. Callahan, and Salem County Prosecutor John T. Lenahan said in a joint announcement.

Five women had forced their way into a mobile home and assaulted the owner breaking a rib and lacerating a lung -- while stealing her iPhone, they said.

Hershey identified himself as a law enforcement officer when he was approached by Hutchings, Kareen "Kai" Warner Jr., 19, and Colby Opperman, 18, all of Bridgeton, who pulled up in a caravan hours later, authorities said.

Hutchings shot Hershey in the upper leg, they said, adding that the detective returned fire, forcing the defendants to flee.

Hershey underwent surgery at Cooper University Hospital in Camden and was recovering, Grewal, Callahan and Lenahan said.

A member of the caravan was treated at the hospital for a gunshot wound in her leg and was released, they said, adding that she wasnt charged.

All eight defendants were identified and captured by New Jersey State Police Fugitive and TEAMS units, assisted by the U.S. Marshals Service NY/NJ Regional Fugitive Task Force and the ATF.

The Salem County Prosecutors Office charged the five women for the home invasion, while Grewals Office of Public Integrity & Accountability (OPIA) charged the three men in the shooting.

All were being held in the Salem County Jail pending detention hearings. More charges were possible, authorities said.

We have zero tolerance for those who violently attack our law enforcement officers, Grewal said. Our state troopers put their lives on the line every day to keep our communities safe, and Saturdays incident is an important reminder of the brave work our troopers perform.

Anyone attempting to murder a New Jersey state trooper, or any member of law enforcement, will find no safe haven, Calahan added. Our pursuit will be relentless, unwavering and swift.

It began with a 6:15 p.m. home invasion by the women, identified as Jazmin Valentin, 32, Yomari Lazu, 43, Iramari Lazu, 22, Mayra Roblero, 52, and Maria Betancourt, 39, of Vineland.

Authorities charged all with aggravated assault, robbery, and conspiracy to commit robbery, as well as burglary and conspiracy to commit burglary.

Hutchings, meanwhile, was charged with first-degree attempted murder, aggravated assault on a police officer and weapons offenses.

Warner and Opperman were each charged with weapons offenses.

Anyone who would open fire on a law enforcement officer conducting an investigation, as Hutchings is alleged to have done, represents a grave danger to the community, said Director Thomas Eicher of the Office of Public Integrity and Accountability. Justice demanded swift action in this case, as did public safety.

We will continue to work closely with the New Jersey State Police to ensure that those responsible for this attack are prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Investigating were the NJSPs Major Crime Unit South, Troop A Criminal Investigation Office, Crime Scene Investigation Unit and Cold Case Unit, along with the Salem County Prosecutors Office and state Office of Public Integrity and Accountability.

The ten commissioned reports that will comprise American Roundtable, a new initiative headed by the Architectural League of New York, have been announced. Earlier in the year,AN put out a call on social media for editors who were interested to apply for the program.

Selected by a special committee from a pool of nearly 125 total submissions covering 40 states and territories, each report, spearheaded by an editor or editorial team, will focus on an overlooked small or mid-sized American community and its unique set of struggles, strengths, needs, and wants. Geographically, economically, and culturally diverse, these are places that to many Americans are just obscure points on a map, but in actually have untold stories to tell. Through essays, mapping, video, photography, graphics, and other forms of media gleaned from on-the-ground reportage, American Roundtable will tell these stories and give voice to places that have been largely left silent and unnoticed.

The hope for American Roundtable is to highlight, in all their complexity and nuance, communities too often overlooked and to provide platforms for individuals and organizations to share their stories and work imagining, understanding, and improving their local built environments, reads a press statement, which also pointed out that these are the type of communities often reduced to caricature and oversimplification.

The commissioned reports will be published online and in print this coming November and be followed by a series of thematic conversations (exact timing is pending due to the COVID-19 pandemic). The focus in each will revolve around five key topic areas: public space, health, work and economy, infrastructure, and environment. Now, it is even more of an imperative to give voice to local places to envision a better, collective future, said Paul Lewis, president of the Architectural League and Selection Committee member.

The 10 communities to be profiled as part of the American Roundtable project are: Africatown, a historically rich yet underserved neighborhood in Mobile, Alabama; the oft-forgotten Appalachian communities of West Virginia; Brownsville, Texass poverty-stricken southernmost border city; South Dakotas Cheyenne River Reservation, home to the Lakota people and the fourth largest Indian reservation by land in the United States; the small city of Clarksdale, Mississippi, often credited as the birthplace of the Delta Blues; New Mexicos Lower Rio Grande Valley; Maines working-class, natural resource-rich River Valley region; the climate change-vulnerable South Beach communities of Washingtons Pacific coast; North Carolinas agriculture-dependent Southeast Good Food Corridor that spans Robeson and Scotland counties, and Ohios Youngstown-Warren-Lordstown metropolitan area, a former industrial hotbed that has experienced stark population and job losses since the 1970s.

The proposals reflected the tremendous richness and diversity of Americas small cities, towns, and rural regions, so often collapsed into stereotype or dismissed altogether in our national narratives, said Sue Mobley, a New Orleans-based urbanist and activist and member of the American Roundtable Selection Committee member, in a statement. For every proposal we received there were dozens of stories contained in it: of natural spaces, economic histories, unique cultures, and incredible people that I wanted to hear more about.
