      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Missing all the big music festivals this summer?&nbsp; Maybe this&#39;ll help.&nbsp; Some guy created a website that randomly generates massive &#39;90s music festivals that you can actually watch.</p>

<p>Here&#39;s how it works:&nbsp; This guy compiled a huge list of acts that did music festivals back then in the UK&nbsp;</p>

<p>When you click on the site, you automatically get a festival loaded with dozens of bands on two stages.&nbsp; Don&#39;t like your choices?&nbsp; You can generate a new festival with the click of a button.</p>

<p>A Fort Collins engineer has created a device called the &ldquo;Social Stick,&rdquo; which aims to help people practice social distancing.</p>

<p>The 6-foot instrument helps people know they are staying 6 feet away from each other.</p>

<p>R.T. Custer is the inventor. He says he recently came up with the idea after a conversation with friends.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Maybe this is just a funny gift for a friend,&rdquo; says Custer. &ldquo;But it&rsquo;s cool and practical too.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The concept is gaining attention.</p>

<p>Custer says he is in &ldquo;conversations&rdquo; with retail stores and government entities.</p>

<p>The &ldquo;Social Stick&rdquo; can be found&nbsp;<a href="https://socialstickusa.com/">online.</a></p>]]></content:encoded>

<p>Tim started in radio in his home state of Ohio and has spent most of his career working in Las Vegas with a brief stint in St. Louis before deciding to adventure to the Middle East.</p>

<p>Since 2013, he has been working as a radio host in Jordan and in the UAE predominantly on the Tim and Faris show which started in Amman and moved to Dubai in 2017.</p>

<p>&ldquo;When the opportunity to host the Z99 Morning Show presented itself, along with the laidback lifestyle and Caribbean beaches, the choice was easy,&rdquo; said Tim Hartman.</p>

<p>Tim looks forward to mentoring and teaching up and coming Caymanian talent in his role and getting to know more about Cayman culture as he settles into his new home.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Tune in on Monday 6<sup>th</sup> January from 6.00am for Tim&rsquo;s first show live on Z99, on FM, online and via the Hurley&rsquo;s Media Alexa Skill.</p>]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An electric eel in Chattanooga, Tenn., is sparking a little holiday cheer.</p>

<p>Every time Miguel Wattson the electric eel releases a jolt of electricity, a festively-decorated Christmas tree next to his tank at the Tennessee Aquarium flickers and glows.</p>

<p>&quot;There is a sensor directly in his exhibit that picks up when he produces electricity,&quot; Aquarist Kimberly Hurt, who cares for the electric eel, tells NPR.</p>

<p>The aquarium had already connected the sensor to a soundboard and a light board to correspond with Wattson&#39;s bursts, says Hurt. &quot;It&#39;ll light up the board. It also does make some noise so people can hear when he&#39;s producing electricity.&quot;</p>

<p>So it wasn&#39;t a huge leap to also have Wattson&#39;s sensors connected to a Christmas tree, for a seasonal spin on the display.</p>

<p>Take a look at the electric eel in action:</p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="oARdLd">The Skywalker saga that started more than 40 years ago in <em>Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope </em>is finally coming to an end, and the final trailer for<em> <strong>Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker</strong> </em>teases an epic conclusion. The trailer debuted on Monday Night.</p>

<p id="JTj1Fo">Landing a finale is often considered one of the most difficult feats in Hollywood, whether it&rsquo;s a film franchise or TV series. <em>The Rise of Skywalker</em>, which sees the final battle between the Resistance and the First Order, will give the story a meaningful end, according to director J.J. Abrams. &ldquo;We went into this thing knowing it has to be an ending. We&rsquo;re not screwing around,&rdquo; said Abrams. The movie is due to be released on the 20th December 2019.</p>

Though the fantasy may have faded, Kellogg&rsquo;s went out of their way to make that dream come true this week, and it ended up supporting a good cause.</p>

<p>This week, Kellogg&rsquo;s dropped&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glaad.org/blog/kelloggs-and-glaad-launch-special-edition-all-together-cereal-spirit-day">the very limited edition &ldquo;All Together&rdquo; cereal,</a>&nbsp;which fuses the flavors of Fruit&nbsp;Loops, Rice Krispies, Apple Jacks, Frosted Flakes, and Frosted Mini Wheats into a single special package. It&rsquo;s not the result of some crazy factory mixup, but an intentional effort to team up with GLAAD for Spirit Day, an anti-bullying initiative in support of LGBTQ youth that takes place each October. All proceeds from its sale have been donated to the anti-defamation nonprofit.&nbsp;</p>]]></content:encoded>

<p>It&#39;s no sexy Mister Rogers, but it&#39;s already an early contender for this year&#39;s best Halloween costume. Angelo&#39;s II, a restaurant and bar located on the ground floor of a building in Monongahela, Pa., is being praised for the Halloween decorations that are currently bursting out of the building&#39;s windows and exploding from its roof.</p>
