What Will Happen To A Now-closed Japanese Restaurant In Myrtle Beach? Here’s What We Know

By BERNARD CONDON NEW YORK (AP) — Judges seeking appointments to the federal bench. Wealthy Republicans hoping for ambassadorships. Criminals who wanted pardons. They were among the big spenders at Donald Trump ’s Washington, D. C., hotel while he was president. And many got what they wanted, according to a report released Friday by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. The 57-page report said spending at Trump’s luxury hotel by those seeking favors helped him turn the presidency into a “money-making opportunity,” raising the specter of more “pay to play” schemes should GOP presidential nominee be re-elected next month. But the report, which focused on spending by U.

In the 1980s, when author Jilly Cooper and her family moved a couple hours outside of London to the upscale rural enclave known as the Cotswolds, she soon learned the local pastime was sex. And lots of it: “Everywhere I looked people seemed to be committing both adultery and fornication.” Those neighbors would become the inspiration for her novel “Rivals” and its juicy story of desperate housewives, philandering husbands and the ruthless world of independent television in 1986.
