In Boyertown, a sweet event turned into a big win for a local food pantry. The Cocoa, Coffee & Cookie Crawl, held last November, brought together the community to support Preston’s Pantry. This was not just about tasty treats; it was about giving back. Two groups, Berks-Mont Business Association an
EPCOT is all dressed up for the holidays, and it's a sight to see. From November 28 to December 30, the park is hosting its International Festival of the Holidays. The decorations are stunning, with lit candle flats, banners, and Christmas trees everywhere you look. To help you navigate the festivit
Lithium-sulfur batteries are a big deal. They can store a lot of energy, but they have a problem. The stuff inside them, called lithium polysulfides, moves around too much. This makes the batteries wear out faster. Scientists are trying to fix this by making better catalysts. These are like helpers
Winter in Minnesota is not just about cold weather; it's a time for fun and excitement. The Twin Cities offer a variety of activities that can make the season enjoyable for everyone. From light festivals to train rides, there's something for every family to enjoy. One of the highlights is the Illum
The Olympic flame, a symbol of unity and tradition, starts its journey in Ancient Olympia, Greece. This flame, lit using a concave mirror and sunlight, connects the ancient games to the modern Winter Olympics. The ceremony is a mix of ancient rituals and modern challenges, like bad weather and secur
Scientists have come up with a clever idea to check for harmful chemicals in fruit. They made a special tool that can tell if there is too much of a substance called carbendazim (CBZ) in fruits. This tool is made from tiny sheets of a special material called sulfur-doped graphitic carbon nitride, de
Neanderthals have always fascinated scientists, especially their unique facial features. One big question has been why their noses stuck out so much. Some thought it was because they lived in cold places, but a new study says that might not be the whole story. Deep inside a cave in Italy, there's a
Deep inside a cave in southern Italy, a remarkable discovery has been made. The Altamura Man, a Neanderthal fossil trapped in rock, has given scientists their first-ever look at a Neanderthal's nasal cavity. This is a big deal because these delicate bones usually don't survive in fossils. Researche
In Virginia, scientists have been studying deer bones to figure out where these animals come from. The goal is to find better ways to track movements of both animals and humans. Right now, it's tough to pinpoint exact locations using animal tissues. Three things were looked at in the bones: oxygen,
Deep in the Siberian permafrost, a young woolly mammoth named Yuka lay frozen for roughly 40, 000 years. In 2010, tusk hunters found Yuka's remarkably preserved body, with skin, muscle tissue, and even hair still intact. Scientists were thrilled, as Yuka's DNA was in such good shape that some cell n
