In honor of Presidents Day, a federal holiday celebrated each February in tribute to our first U.S. President George Washington, Westchester County Executive George Latimer is highlighting the important work that was done to restore the historic Elijah J. Miller House in North White Plains. The Westchester County Parks property, which was renovated by Latimer in 2019, was the home of Elijah and Ann Miller, and where President Washington once stayed during the American Revolution. After spending more than 20 years in disrepair, the site is now an educational center where children and families can visit to explore a piece of our nations history. While the property was forced to close due to COVID-19, the County is hopeful for a future, reservation-based reopening with New York State Safety Guidelines in place.

Latimer said: While we may not be able to gather at the Miller House in person, the meaning behind this historic home should never be forgotten. When we made the commitment to reestablish the Miller House, that decision wasnt only made because there was a historic building that we wanted to honor. This building tells us all something about who George Washington was when he was here. It tells us the story of the American Spirit, which we should all remember on Presidents Day.

Commissioner of the Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation Kathy OConnor said: We were thrilled that the restoration of the Miller House was a priority for the Latimer administration. It sat for so long and sustained structural damage to the point where we could no longer allow visitors. We look forward to the day when we can begin programming again to educate children about this important landmark and history of their County.

Cynthia Kauffman of the Daughters of Libertys Legacy (DOLL) said: DOLL was honored to be a part of the revival of the historic Miller House, an extraordinary local landmark. A significant place in our American history where Generals Washington, Lee, Gates and others stood fast against British tyranny and fought for Liberty during the American Revolution. DOLL is pleased to have presented entertaining and historic programs about the Miller familys supporting role in our fight for liberty. We look forward to 'Ann Fisher Miller' welcoming the community back to the reopening of Miller House and continuing our collaboration with Westchester County Parks.

President of Friends of Miller House John S. Diaconis said: We are grateful for County Executive Latimers leadership in preserving this historic landmark. The Elijah Miller House is an 18th century farm house used by General George Washington during the Revolutionary War as a headquarters command post. During the Battle of White Plains, soldiers took shelter under the shade of a 300 year old sycamore thats preserved on the property.

DOLL is a New York 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, founded by two women who are descendants of Patriots who fought for Liberty during the American Revolution. DOLL was formed for the purpose of promoting patriotism and preserving history.

The 501 (c)(3) Friends of Miller House/Washingtons Headquarters is an organization dedicated to help preserve the historic preservation and its ongoing operations

The Miller House is on the National Register of Historic Places, the New York State Register of Historic Places and the Westchester County Inventory of Historic Places. Its also a Town of North Castle Landmark.

DINWIDDIE COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) Dinwiddie County is taking a hit from central Virginias most damaging and most widespread ice storm in 20 years.

As of Tuesday night at 6:00, 55 percent of customers are still without power. The number decreased from 70 percent of customers that morning.

8News saw both Dominion Energy and Southside Electric Cooperative crews working to restore power Tuesday as people like John Anello adapt to stay warm.

My mom lives at an apartment complex so I just had to pack the kids up and go there, Anello said. He told 8News much of the food is his refrigerator spoiled after his home lost power Saturday.

Wednesday will mark the fifth day without power at his home. However, hes thankful he has somewhere warm to go. Not everyone has that option, he said.

I know its gonna take time and I know its frustrating. Theres other people that need it more than I do, Anello told 8News.

Sarah Woodlands family doesnt have any family to turn to. Over the weekend, she not only lost power but also gained a tree.

As soon as I closed my eyes it sounded like a big explosion, said her daughter, who is eight months pregnant. I go into the living room and there was a tree in the living room. I thought I was about ready to have my baby right then and there!

The treefall resulted in extensive damage to the familys front deck, roof, carpet, and appliances inside.

We tried to prepare for it by cutting down other trees in the yard to make sure this didnt happen and here we go, Woodland said. After the tree fell, her fianc was hurt while trying to make sure the home was secure and had to be taken to an E.R. Thankfully, Woodland said, it was just some bruised ribs.

Its just one thing after another but were getting through it, she told 8News.

The family has been staying in a not always comfortable hotel ever since.

You might as well have been staying in the house because the heat kept going out in our room, she said.

The family is expecting home owners insurance to help with some of the cost, but its still a burden. Woodland said shes grateful some family has stepped in to help.

Dominion Energy has roughly 800 more customers in Dinwiddie than Southside Electric does. But as of Tuesday night, Southside has nearly three times the amount of outages. About 2,200 Dominion customers were still in the dark while 5,720 Southside customers remained without power as of 6 p.m. Tuesday.

John Anello is a Southside customer and while he reported his outage to the company days ago, theres still a massive tree branch sitting on his power line. Anello said he reported the outage by leaving a message with Southside and was never contacted after.

Hopefully we can get it back before Thursday but with the storm coming Thursday I dont know, he said.

Southside Electric did not agree to an interview with 8News on Monday or Tuesday. Late in the afternoon Tuesday, a company representative sent a news release with information. However, none of the information given was specific to Dinwiddie County.

In advance of the freezing weather, 18 mutual-aid crews, ten contract crews, and eight contract tree crews were brought on board, as well as 26 of its own restoration crews. Subsequently, on Monday, February 15, an additional 10 contract crews arrived, with 10 more scheduled to arrive by Thursday, the statement read.

The company said the full restoration will take several days due to the sheer damage that has been left behind. The release states that crews are having a tough time reaching some power poles and lines because of downed trees.

As of noon on Tuesday, February 16 there were 752 outages affecting approximately 31,500 members. Specifically, there were 207 reported broken poles, 191 reported broken cross arms, 352 reports of downed wire and 32 circuit outages, the company representative wrote.

According to the company, the following is their strategy for restoring power: SEC crews will be working to first restore electricity on larger, three-phase lines that serve more members. If a SEC member is served by a single-phase line, it will take time to get their power flowing again. While a good amount of progress is being made, it will likely be several days before all members have electricity. SEC apologizes for this inconvenience and want all members to know SEC is working as quickly and safely as possible.

This is a developing story. Stay with 8News for updates.

The Cy Twombly Foundation has denounced the Louvres restoration of its Bronze Room, which houses a site-specific work by Twombly, and has demanded that the Paris institution restore the room to its original state. French newspaper Le Monde reports that on February 1, New York attorney David R. Baum, acting as legal adviser to Twombly Foundation president Nicola del Roscio, emailed Louvre director Jean-Luc Martinez condemning the changes to the room and asking that they be corrected immediately, or at least before the space is reopened to the public. On receiving no reply from Martinez by February 3, Baum wrote to French cultural minister Roselyne Bachelot to complain about the Louvres lack of substantial response.

The Twombly Foundation contends that the changes being made to the Bronze Room conflict profoundly with Twomblys contribution, which the American artist completed in 2010, a year before his death. The room, constructed between 1551 and 1553 by architect Pierre Lescot, occupies the Louvres Sully Wing, one of the institutions largest and oldest wings, and houses more than a thousand works in precious metal, including rings, helmets, and crowns. Twomblys contribution, commissioned by the Louvres then-director Henri Loyette in 2007, was meant to complement a 1930s redesign of the room by Albert Ferran, and was seen as a particularly fitting choice owing to the artists interest in Greek and Roman history.

To create the Louvre commission, Twombly painted the Bronze Rooms ceiling a vibrant Mediterranean blue, and then punctuated the field with disks, shields, and planets in various shades of ocher and white and crossed by bands bearing the names of classical sculptors, including Phidias, Praxiteles, Polykleitos, and Skopas. The artists choice of color takes into account the rooms pale walls and white and gray marble floor, and in dialogue with the rooms contents endows the space with a much-needed lightness. The renovation currently underway is intended to restore the room to its pre-1930s appearance, and includes the replacement of the floor and fixtures, and the repainting of the walls, which are to be red. Additionally, Etruscan metal works are to be displayed alongside the Roman and Greek artifacts traditionally held in the room.

The Twombly Foundation claims that it was never contacted about the changes, which it calls an odious affront that is in violation of the artists moral rights.

Breaking News - All-Star Renovation Duos Battle It Out in Season Two of HGTV's Mega-Hit Competition Series "Rock the Block" - The Futon...

A Farmington Hills mother says shes struggling to manage the aftermath of a February 1 house fire that has her family of five still living in a local hotel.

Lesha Johnson said shes grateful everyone got out alive. The fire started in the basement, after a lamp tipped over and ignited some clothing.

We had a lot of things in the basement, she said. I havent even been able to go in. Were just trying to figure out what to do.

Johnsons four children attend Farmington Public Schools, and someone there helped her set up a crowdfunding campaign. She said she has been very grateful for the kindness people have shown over the past two weeks.

While the house wasnt destroyed, Johnson has learned theres a very high cost to fire restoration. Living in a hotel is also an expensive proposition.

In addition to caring for her own family, Johnson helps out four younger siblings and an elderly aunt and uncle. Shes used to being the one people rely on, so asking for help isnt easy.

We hope to eventually be able to go back, she said. I put everything I had into that house. Its just about trying to rebuild.

Mind you, the video is old by internet standards, having been posted in August 2019. However, it racked up over seven million views since, and its all due to the sheer dedication that drove its transformation from a junkyard-condemned car to perfectly working condition.

Just to make an idea of how every detail was taken into consideration, the guy who accepted the challenge of saving the Range Rover says he welded some parts then cut them and welded them again once he gained more experience, as the first attempt did not satisfy him in terms of quality.

What is even more amazing has to do with how the DIY project was funded. As in, only from Patreon donations. So, yeah, it looks like determination and passion are contagious, or at least appreciated in the car-loving community.

Soup Classic Motoring, whoever you are, well done. You have earned our standing ovation.

The award was particularly controversial because Dr. Chazov, a member of the Soviet Communist Partys Central Committee, was the personal physician to Kremlin leaders and had, a decade earlier, spoken out against the only other Soviet recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, Andrei D. Sakharov, the human rights activist who as a physicist had been instrumental in developing the Soviet Unions hydrogen bomb.

In a 2008 memoir, Prescription for Survival: A Doctors Journey to End Nuclear Madness, Dr. Lown recounted the story of his antinuclear group and noted that the end of the Cold War had not resolved the threat of annihilation. Eliminating the nuclear menace, he wrote, is a historic challenge questioning whether we humans have a future on planet earth.

Bernard Lown was born in Utena, Lithuania, on June 7, 1921, to Nisson and Bella (Grossbard) Lown. A grandfather of his had been a rabbi in Lithuania.

The family emigrated to Maine in 1935, and his father ran a shoe factory there, in Pittsfield. Bernard graduated from Lewiston High School in 1938. He earned a bachelors degree in zoology at the University of Maine in 1942 and his medical degree from Johns Hopkins University in 1945.

In 1946, he married Louise Lown, a cousin. She died in 2019. The couple had previously lived in Newton, Mass. In addition to his granddaughter Ariel, he is survived by three children, Anne, Fredric and Naomi Lown; four other grandchildren; and one great-grandchild

After an internship and residency in New York City, Dr. Lown settled in Boston in 1950 and over the next decade taught and conducted cardiovascular research at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital and the Harvard Medical School.

In 1952, he and Dr. Samuel A. Levine recommended in The Journal of the American Medical Association that patients with congestive heart disease recuperate in an armchair, not a bed, because fluids pool in the chest cavity when lying down, forcing the heart to work harder. The advice is widely accepted now.

EAST PALO ALTO, Calif., Feb. 11, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --WeHOPE and United Hope Builders (UHB) today announced they are in the final stretch of securing capital investment to build a new factory dedicated to manufacturing affordable housing specifically to address the Bay Area housing crisis. With 75 percent of its capital investment already achieved, UHB/indie Dwell's new modular-home manufacturing plant is on track to open later this year in East Palo Alto. The new factory will provide more than 100 jobs and enable local community members to earn a living wage and benefits while supplying modular homes to local unhoused families.

Kicking off the public capital raising campaign, WeHOPE and UHB will host an event on Sunday, February 14, to open the doors to two new affordable dignified housing units, handing over the keys to unhoused neighbors while showcasing new home designs the factory intends to build. The event will demonstrate how these unique modular units can stand as single-family homes or be stacked into multifamily housing and subdivided into smaller studio apartments for rapid government rehousing deployment.

"For more than 21 years, WeHOPE has been getting people healthy, employed and housed, and now UHB is joining that fight by providing housing and jobs to our homeless and marginalized brothers and sisters. Together, WeHOPE and UHB are bringing hope home," said Pastor Paul Bains, founder of WeHOPE and UHB.

The new factory capital investment funds received to date mainly stem from individuals and private companies in the Bay Area looking to invest in the future of their communities by contributing to an effort intended to help solve the local housing crisis, offer new employment opportunities to those in need, and truly make a difference in the lives of others.

Special guest speakers at the February 14 event will include: Priscilla Chan, co-founder of Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI); Warren Slocum, county board of supervisors for San Mateo; and East Palo Alto Mayor Carlos Romero.

As WeHOPE and UHB are committed to keeping all local community members safe, COVID-19 safety measures have been put in place to protect in-person attendees.
