A couple who both suffered serious injuries in the Boston bombings have won a dream wedding.

Pete DiMartino, from Rochester, New York, proposed to Rebekah Gregory, from Richmond, Texas, in October after the tragedy made them realize just how important they were to each other.

Wedding website ‘The Knot’ heard of the couple’s story and has now named them the winner of its 2014 dream wedding contest, meaning that their entire wedding will be free.

But there’s a hitch: the website’s visitors will help plan the wedding by voting on everything from the location to the dress and the cake.

Governor’s office announces ReadyNC emergency response app

From the office of Gov. Pat McCrory:

Raleigh, NC – Governor Pat McCrory and Public Safety Secretary Frank L. Perry announced the launch of a new mobile application today that will help North Carolinians prepare for everything from minor traffic emergencies to severe storms on a daily basis.

The app is free and available now in the AppStore for iPhones and Google Play for Android devices.

“The ReadyNC mobile application is an all-in-one tool that both residents and visitors can use to get the latest weather, traffic and hazard information and know what to do to be safe,” said Governor McCrory. “None of us can predict when the next disaster will occur, but we can minimize the impacts by preparing ahead of time.”

Governor McCrory stresses the new mobile app does not replace calling 911. However, it can be used to find life-saving information.

The new app provides users with:
real-time traffic and weather information
critical information on how to be safe during different hazardous events
real-time information about opened shelters for evacuees (including addresses, capacity, directions and if the shelter is pet-friendly)
real-time updates on flood levels

Cynthia Homire: Vision Quest will focus on the work of poet, potter and visual artist Cynthia Homire, a Black Mountain College alumna, now in her early 80s, who has worked in a variety of media over the course of her prolific career. Homire was a student at Black Mountain College from 1950-1954, where she studied with Charles Olson, Robert Creeley, and M. C. Richards, among many others. Homire describes this seminal experience with her typical humor and grace.
