~ News ~ ...SKATING from page 30 the basic positions of skating and how to achieve circles and figure eights. While ice skating may have originated in Europe, the style of skating that evolved into figure skating was developed and honed by American Jackson Haines. Haines eschewed the rigid British style of figure skating that was merely tracing shapes for a style that included elements of ballet and other dance to offer fluidity of movement. Haines’ style was accepted by many skaters in Switzerland and the Netherlands, and eventually he established the Vienna School to teach others this artistic style of skating. Haines died young, but his teaching methods at the school prevailed and led to the development of the International Skating Union in 1892. The Union drafted the first official
...COLD from page 29 set of codified figure skating rules. Figure skating continued through the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Athletes began to emerge who would be best known for their signature moves, some of which would be permanently added to the figure skating lexicon. Modern figure skating has four Olympic divisions, including ladies’ singles, men’s singles, pair skating and ice dancing. The International Skating Union also recognizes speed skating on a traditional long track as well as short track speed skating as the main offshoots of the ancient form of ice skating.

dog breeds have jackets to help them tolerate the cold weather. Examples of breeds that should wear winter jackets include: greyhounds, pit bulls, boxers, dalmatians, weimaraners, dobermans, shar-peis, and all small and toy breed dogs. Keep an eye on cats spending time outside. “The Animal Welfare Society sees many cases of stray animals coming into the shelter with frostbite this time of year,” said Kapler. “If at all possible, keep your cats inside.” If your cat does get outside, try to locate your pet as soon as possible. Make it a bit easier by ensuring that your pet has current ID tags. If you see a stray animal outside, please contact your animal control officer. The ACO can pick up the animal and bring it to a shelter where it will be kept warm and dry.
Gospel Concert to Celebrate life of martin luther King, Jr. POrTSmOuTH – It is time for the annual “Set The House on Fire” a gospel concert, celebrating its 15th year in recognition of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther, Jr. Seacoast artist Sandi Clark will hold the concert on If you have feral cats in your area, consider putting some hay in the area where they sleep, such as under your porch, in a barn or doghouse. Keep an eye on their food and water supply. Rabbits should be brought inside, as well, even if they are accustomed to living in a pen outdoors. “Even a garage or basement provides more protection from extreme temperatures than being left outside,” said Kapler. Give them plenty of hay and be sure to check water bottles often. They will freeze very quickly in cold temperatures.
