Artist Emma Anna wants you to imagine yourself inside her work literally.

Boca Raton is the U.S. debut city for a traveling sculpture by the Sydney, Australia-born artist. Her work, titled IMAG_NE, is sculpted to look like Scrabble squares with the second I missing.

The goal, she has said, is for the viewer to interact with the sculpture. And she is encouraging people to snap pictures of themselves interacting with the work and post it on social media. For the U.S. stop, the hashtag is #imagineboca.

The city, home to the edgy Boca Museum of Art, celebrated with a free concert and dedication ceremony with the artist, mayor Susan Haynie and West Boca Highs jazz band at the site in Sanborn Square (72 N. Federal Highway) on Oct. 1.

We anticipate that our residents, as well as visitors, will take great joy in having the opportunity to wordplay using their own imaginations, Haynie said in a release.

The sculpture will be at Sanborn Square through mid-November, except for when it moves to Florida Atlantic University from Nov. 11-13 for a special event with New York Times bestselling author Gabrielle Bernstein.

The work was inspired by the Albert Einstein quote, Imagination is more important than knowledge Knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, Anna has said.

It has been traveling the world since debuting as part of Sculpture by the Sea in Bondi, Australia in 2008.

Subterranean Termite Pre-Treatments for New Construction

Better for the environment. When you pre-treat wood and concrete with Bora-Care, thats all you treat. With soil treatments, hundreds of gallons of pesticides are pumped directly into the ground. Bora-Care, however is applied directly to either wood or concrete and that is where it stays. Bora-Care can even be used on lakeside homes. As the pest management industry becomes more environmentally conscious our pre-treatments with Bora-Care continues to be the prime choice for those looking to protect our delicate surroundings.

Termite Facts Subterranean termites are extremely destructive. First they build tunnels to wooden structures, and then they burrow into those structures to obtain food. Any wood or cellulose-containing material constitutes termite food, and given time to do so, theyll eat until nothing is left but a shell. Termites avoid light and air, so they build their colonies where youre not likely to stumble upon them. Is it a termite or an ant? On the off chance you do see them, remember that its easy to confuse termites with ants. Fortunately, there are features that distinguish them.

A Columbia Fire Explorer puts out a room burn as part of Sunday's Fire Prevention Week kickoff event.

COLUMBIA -- Hundreds of onlookers were treated to a room burn Sunday as the Columbia Fire Department kicked off National Fire Prevention Week.

Firefighters set two room mockups ablaze, one equipped with a sprinkler system, to show how smoke detectors and sprinklers work. Fire marshal Brad Fraizer said Sunday's event was the first time the department has ever hosted a special event to start the week.

"Fire Prevention Week is a great opportunity for the fire department and the community to focus on fire safety, so we thought this would be a great opportunity to increase community awareness about fire safety," he said.

Columbia resident Neil Vaughn said he is considering getting a sprinkler system after watching Sunday's demonstration.

"Definitely saved everything in there, barring the water damage, but everything could be wiped off and restored versus burned to a crisp," he said.

Fraizer said the department was giving away 500 free smoke detectors as part of Sunday's event.

Lote Tuqiri spoke to NRL.com after the Rabbitohs historic Grand Final win against the Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs.

From the Rabbitohs Sheds: Tuqiri - Video

The player: Glen Davis

The scoop: Davis is a power forward who has been in the NBA for seven season, playing for Boston, Orlando and the Clippers. He won an NBA championship with the Celtics in 2008. He has a career-average of 8.7 points a game, 4.7 rebounds and one assist. In 23 games with the Clippers last season, he averaged a career-low in points (4.2), tied his career-low in rebounds (three) and had a career-low in minutes (13.4).

The recent happenings: Davis says he lost more than 20 pounds over the summer, but at the Clippers' training camp in Las Vegas, Coach Doc Rivers joked that it was an insignificant amount.

"It's like throwing a deck chair off the Queen Mary," Rivers said.

The funny:Davis' nickname is "Big Baby." He was dubbed that when he was a kid, because he was big and would often cry. During his NBA career he has continued to prove his moniker accurate. During a game in 2008, he very publicly cried on the bench after Kevin Garnett gave him some tough love. In 2010, he drooled while celebrating a basket against the Lakers.

The not-so-pretty: Davis' maturity has been questioned throughout his career, and in March of last season, he got into a spat with Rivers during a game against Houston. Rivers sent Davis to the locker room in the second quarter.

"I thought Baby was just too emotional," Rivers told reporters after the game.

Construction crews are completing site work on a new Taco Bell at 10736 Jefferson Ave.

NEWPORT NEWS A new fast-food restaurant will soon join the ranks of an existing bank of similar eateries in the Morrison section of south Newport News.

Taco Bell is currently under construction at 10736 Jefferson Ave. at the intersection of Jefferson Avenue and Ivy Farm Road, according to city planning and engineering documents.

Construction crews have already demolished the former 40-year-old, 2,351-square-foot building on the 0.53-acre site.

Kim Lee, Newport News spokeswoman, said in an email that site plans for the new Taco Bell were approved with conditions by the city council on Sept.11.

The site was already zoned commercial, which allows for fast-food eateries and retail to be constructed or opened on the property.

Alex Gartsman, who owns the property and operated A. Gartsman Fine Violins on the site for about eight years, said Thursday he recently reopened his violin and music shop at 8 Ivy Farm Road in August after leasing the site for the new restaurant.

Michael Montgomery, a developer with Texas-based Verdad Real Estate Inc., is overseeing the construction of the new Taco Bell.

A set opening date and timeline for construction has not been released.

Montgomery was out of the office Thursday afternoon, and could not be reached for comment.

Grille 3501s newly opened addition, The Loft, is a stellar open-air interpretation of this top Lehigh Valley dining spot. Smart and contemporary in its rustic sophistication, The Loft makes this restaurants star shine even brighter.

Even though the addition increases Grille 3501s seating by several dozen, the food is as excellent as the day the restaurant launched in 2001. Expansion of the kitchen, part of the construction project, undoubtedly helped to ensure the fares continuing high standards.

Floor-to-ceiling doors open the two-level addition to fresh air and a full measure of sunlight. A large bar on the first level anchors bar-height tables in the front and standard tables in the back, where an exposed brick wall adds texture to rough-hewn beams and chestnut brown walls.

Just a look at Grille 3501s menu gets taste buds turned on. The restaurants inventive fusion of Asian, Mediterranean and French cuisines features appetizers such as grilled lamb tenderloin with sweet potato pancakes and cranberry ginger vinaigrette and sea salt roasted shrimp with corn brulee and garlic ginger soy.

About a dozen main dishes offer creative combinations: Duck breast with yam hash, tatsoi, duck confit relish and port reduction, for example, along with spicy seared Hawaiian monchong with lobster quinoa pilaf, glazed baby carrots and chili yuzu sauce.

Crispy sesame chicken dumplings ($11) were a delectable start. Dark in color and taste, these golf-ball sized morsels were formed around a length of sugar cane like a Popsicle stick, and served on a bed of sliced green onions, their pointed sharpness balancing the dumplings crunch and the dipping sauces deep, nutty, sesame essence.

Pistachios on the shared baby arugula ($7) salad plated separately, thank you very much added lovely color and texture to the Gorgonzola, red beets and sherry vinaigrette that topped the greens.

Succulent sea salt-seared rare tuna ($28) was pink and buttery. Its pairings Israeli couscous, baby bok choy and carrot slaw, enhanced by ginger red pepper gastrique kept the tenor of this combination light and bright.

Meltingly tender, with pomegranate jus as deep and dark as night, boneless beef short ribs ($28) remain a food memory made in heaven. Served on a crispy potato cake with spinach and roasted portobello mushrooms, these ribs took comfort food to a new level.

Luscious limoncello cheesecake ($8.50) was delightful, but the accompanying lemon curd spring roll was truly inspired: Its thin pastry wrapper burst with intense, citrusy and tart lemon cream that sealed this meal with the freshness of a spring morning.
