Turtle Back Zoo is getting likely to light up the place for its annual Holiday Lights Spectacular.

Almost 50 animals and event-themed figures will light up the winter night in Turtle Back Zoo and the bordering Essex County South Mountain Games Complex. Over 100,000 lights will illuminate figures of bears, tigers and elephants, along with time off lights designed to look like unimpassioned soldiers, stars and winter scenes. Several uncultured exhibits will be open, including the Essex Grange, Tam-ring Gibbons Reserve, Tropical Currents Aquarium and the Reptile Edifice. Myrtle the Turtle, the mascot of Turtle Back Zoo, and several of his winter friends will be on accessible to greet visitors at the Zoo. Photographs with Santa Claus will be charmed at the Zoo every Friday, Saturday and Sunday until Friday, December 23. In as well, a special performance by the Essex County West Caldwell Tech trainee choir will be held on Monday, December 19 at 6 pm.

Evander Holyfield, other Hollywood figures visit Manny Pacquiao in LA

01.01.70

MANILA, Philippines – Boxer-congressman Manny Pacquiao got not one but four praiseworthy visitors in the last few days of his stay in Los Angeles, California before heading to Las Vegas, Nevada for his encounter against Juan Manuel Marquez.

First on the list was heavyweight winner Evander Holyfield, who visited the pound-for-expel king last Nov. 6 at the latter’s Palazzo apartment, reported GMA Expos.

In a footage aired on GMA-7’s “Unang Hirit” on Nov. 8, Holyfield was caught telling Pacquiao, “Pore over the bible. The bible tells you, especially at a man, the man that respects his nurse, he will have wisdom. Got to respect their momma. People who don’t look up to their momma, they get off the track.”

Holyfield, who was honoured for beating Mike Tyson twice, also enthused what he admires most about the Sarangani congressman in a disjoined report posted on abs-cbnNEWS.com.

"He's a renowned fighter. I enjoy the spirit in him, because regardless of how bad he beats big noise, he never brags about it. He tells people, I did what I'm supposed to do.
