School plans to convert former pub into classrooms
An empty Grantham pub could be turned into a sixth-form centre by a nearby school. The King's School has applied to convert the former Five Bells on Brook Street for use by its Year 12 and 13 students. In its planning application, the boys' school said the revamped space would provide "teaching and study spaces specifically tailored to the needs of older students preparing for A-level examinations and university entrance". It would also be used for offices. Plans include removing the bar area, the cellars and the kitchen and converting them into smaller rooms. The application said "no significant external alterations are proposed" except possibly ramps and door widening to improve accessibility. The bid will be considered by South Kesteven District Council. The King's School's former pupils include Sir Isaac Newton and 18th Century Poet Laureate Colley Cibber.

Hanging by a hoof: Goat trapped on Big Island cliff for days
HAWI, Hawaii (KHON2) — On July 10, the Kohala Animal Relocation and Education Service told KHON2 that skilled rock climber volunteers encouraged the goat to move onto a lower, slightly larger cliff. KARES said it's a good sign the goat is moving down on her own. To actually get to the ground, she'll have to wait until low tide. The goat has been confirmed by KARES to be feral, not a pet. They said she was in good health and plan to check on July 11 to see if they can get her safely off the cliff. How do illegal animals make their way to Hawaiʻi — and what happens when they're found? Locals in Hawi first spotted a goat on a cliffside three days ago and feared it was growing weak. 'Time is running out, you know, on this poor animal, and it looks like it must have fallen to that spot,' said Debbie Cravatta, founder and president of KARES. She said locals have been keeping an eye on it everyday. Cravatta said the goat may be a pet that appears to have fallen about 300 feet from the top of the cliff at Hawi. It's about another 100 feet to the ground. Concerned residents contacted federal, state and county agencies, but didn't get a response. The terrain in the area is treacherous and steep. Without much more they can do from the ground, they're looking for help from someone with a helicopter — and heart.'Because once they get to it, and if they have to carry it up or down it, it's better if we could get that goat in a bucket and away, because if it is scared, just even, like if it was a cat or dog, if you make the wrong move, it may plunge to its death in fear,' Cravatta said. While some might shrug off the effort to save a single goat, animal advocates say it's a matter of empathy, the kind of compassion that makes Hawaii special.

Who's, you know, indigenous of the islands, and who's, you know, out there to be killed, because it's an invasive species. Aren't we all invasive species to one degree? So we're going to save the ones we can the ones that cross our path,' Cravatta said. The Kohala Animal Relocation and Education Service said if it's a pet, they'll try to find its home. If it's feral, they plan to give it medical care and release it back to the wild. Anyone who may be able to help with rescuing the goat, is asked to call the Kohala Animal Relocation and Education Service at (808) 333-6299. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Two 14-year-olds trapped on cliff near God's Thumb saved, Oregon firefighters say
A U.S. Coast Guard helicopter plucked two teens off a cliff near the God's Thumb rock outcrop on the Oregon coast, firefighters reported. The teens became stuck trying to climb a cliff from the beach to God's Thumb on Saturday, July 5, North Lincoln Fire & Rescue said in a news release on Facebook. A Coast Guard MH-60 helicopter crew stationed in Astoria hoisted the teens to safety along with a firefighter who became stuck trying to reach them, the Coast Guard said in a news release. A video shows the crew hoisting the climbers. The two 14-year-olds were flown to a nearby beach and reunited with their families, firefighters told KPTV. Cody Heidt, deputy chief fire marshal for the agency, told KOIN the rescue operation cost an estimated $20,000. 'What tends to happen is they make it to nearly the top, about 30 to 40 feet from the summit,' Heidt told KPTV. 'It goes almost vertical there. So when they get to that point, they don't feel safe coming down because of the loose rocks, and they can't go up anymore.' Two other climbers also had to be rescued by helicopter from the cliff earlier this year, firefighters said. Lincoln County is about a 130-mile drive southwest from Portland.
