Helen Hunt: 'There were a couple of years I was spooked – I just ... (The Guardian)

When an Oscar win brought the paparazzi to her door, the actor figured that endless pictures of her with a yoga mat would be of no interest to them.

“I just went back to the drawing board, and started to raise money again” for her follow up, the 2014 surfing drama [Ride](https://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/may/01/ride-review-wetsuit-required-for-soppy-luke-wilsonhelen-hunt-surf-romance). There were three of us, each representing a minority of our own, one of us having starred in the [original] [movie](https://www.theguardian.com/film/2018/oct/04/blindspotting-review-carlos-lopez-estrada) and we couldn’t get a meeting. And then when As Good As It Gets came along, rather than being the person the director wanted but the studio wouldn’t back, I was suddenly the person the studio wanted him to see.” I felt as if I was with a friend and in acting class rather than an iconic movie star.” “I remember when it was like: ‘You’re on TV, you’re not going to get cast in a movie,’” she says. “Every time I see a play I think of him, because he was always so excited when the lights began to go down,” she says. “My expectation about Jack was that he would be unpredictable and not bother with the mundane things that I bothered with,” she says. As Good As It Gets brought her not just the Oscar, but into the orbit of Jack. In the eyes of some, As Good As It Gets was as good as it got for Helen Hunt. Mad About You, in which she and Paul Reiser starred as a pair of newlyweds living in New York City, premiered in 1992, back when TV was still sniffed at – but that would soon change. “I was afraid that I could never unring that bell.” So how did she cope with the media assault? I just wanted to be in the building.”

And another thing – those pick-up service workers at Walmart will just about knock you down getting to their staging area. A couple weeks ago the only buggy I could get had all the rubber worn off the wheels. I wonder if it the Bell Game with Concord. Tawana has asked a lot of people and no one seems to know. As all items should be Cabarrus County landmarks, I have been on the search to locate the statue, just curious where it is and what surrounds it.” “As a local, I’ve seen how far downtown Kannapolis has come in the past few years, so I’m thrilled to be a part of it,” King said. King Guitar will give patrons of downtown Kannapolis an eclectic mix of guitars, gear and repairs. We told you about the store last week and mistakenly told you they had been in business for several years. Shanley was the Chief Assistant District Attorney at the Cabarrus County District Attorney’s Office. “Ashlie Shanley will bring years of experience as a prosecutor to this role,” said Governor Cooper. A familiar face in the courthouse. It’s not often we change District Attorneys in Cabarrus County.

Zero kills to date in Alberta's bounty hunt on invasive wild boar ... (CBC.ca)

A bounty program touted as a remedy to Alberta's wild boar problem has resulted in zero kills in its first five months. An expert says he's pleased no ...

"In a lot of ways they've been leading the country in terms of addressing wild pigs. "They love the meat. And few believed the pigs could thrive in Alberta's cold winters. "The government of Alberta implemented a lot of good actions," Brook said. Alberta has been grappling with how to eliminate the large tusked animals. Terry Fisher, a lifelong hunter from De Winton, a hamlet in the foothills of southern Alberta, wants to help the province handle its problem. The province doesn't give out locations "due to privacy issues," it says. More than 1,000 wild boars were killed under that program, which was shut down in 2017. And for this, there's no information." "You're always looking for a new critter. Trappers are paid $75 per pair of ears, with the expectation that they have killed an entire sounder. Alberta's hunting bounty will run until March 31, 2023.

Hunt reminds Dragons of his worth as Broncos bow out of finals race (The Sydney Morning Herald)

Ben Hunt's starring performance put him in the box seat for the Dally M – and boosted his hopes of a contract extension.

Haas, who was able to block out the news his mother had been jailed on Thursday, also punched through plenty of work. James Tedesco made things interesting with his own starring performance – and three likely Dally M votes – 24 hours earlier for the Roosters. Griffin has complete control and the backing of the club and would privately know it will be 2023 or bust for his own future. The future of Griffin is safe for now, and he can thank his good mate and fellow Queenslander Hunt for taking the pressure off him on more than one occasion. Hunt kicked a 40/20 that led to a try, denied Zac Hoskings a try, and set up Cody Ramsey and Mat Feagai for four-pointers, including the latter that will be a contender for try of the year. Griffin was also happy to push Hunt’s Dally M claims and said: “Over 25 rounds the points tell the picture, there’s no way to hide in the NRL, and he’s been outstanding individually and outstanding as a leader for our club.
