At a high-end Michigan gathering, one speaker argued that unifying Americans might be simpler than politicians think. Instead of debates or policies, the answer could lie in the same values many hold dear: helping those who protect the country. Gary Sinise, best known for a famous war movie role, sh
In 1993, a woman named Randy Gail Sperino disappeared from Granite City, Illinois, after being seen entering a dark pickup truck. Her body was later found in a nearby field, brutally killed.

Virginia Beach’s school board is rethinking how young students use computers in class. A new plan would stop pre-K through first graders from using school laptops during lessons next year.

Inside their humble tubers lies a complex world where microscopic features shape everything from how they taste in a fry to how they behave in processed foods. Researchers dug deep into 137 potato varieties from 16 countries, growi
New York’s push for rapid solar energy growth has left locals and wildlife in the dark—literally. A law passed in 2019, meant to fast-track renewable projects, skipped basic environmental checks. Developers were handed a blank permit to build giant solar farms wherever land was cheap, ignoring warni
The watchmaker Movado recently skipped its usual financial forecast, leaving traders uneasy. Shares dropped sharply as investors reacted to the lack of direction. But here’s the twist: the company’s last earnings report wasn’t all bad. Sales and profits actually beat expectations. So why the sudden
A federal lawsuit claims UCLA allowed a pattern of harassment against Jewish students to go unchecked during waves of anti-Israel protests in 2023 and 2024. The Justice Department argues that the university ignored over 100 complaints of antisemitic behavior, from verbal abuse to physical attacks, w
