Kimpton Middle School has partnered with the Stow-Munroe Falls Public Library to bring the Bookmobile to school once a month, giving students an opportunity to explore new titles, discover different authors, and expand their reading choices!

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

I don't want you to panic but there's only two weeks left before Halloween if you haven't cleaned your bat yet.

My daughter's middle school has the most direct fundraising strategy and I'm here for it. We can skip the whole charade.

This Halloween I’m going as generative AI. I’ll show up with no costume of my own, start borrowing pieces of everyone else’s outfits, drink all their water, and flip on every light in the house.

Wildlife photographer Alan Murphy caught the moment this Great Grey Owl turned its head and shattered its perfect camouflage.. Reminding us that the woods are never truly empty.

Someone on my street puts out light, nonsensical lawn signs. Replaces them every few weeks. I assume he’s mocking lawn sign people and if so, I need to meet him.

BERNARDINI is among many! racing standouts to win Belmont's Jockey Club Gold Cup. The 3-year-old romped in the 2006 JCGC by 6 3/4 lengths over older horses - his 6th straight win. He was trained by Tom Albertrani, ridden by Javier Castellano. (Photo 2019 at Darley at Jonabell)

Belmont Park is unique and stands alone as the only 1 and a half mile dirt circuit in the world. This is what makes it the phenomenal track that it is. Leave the Belmont Stakes at one whole lap around. @TheNYRA

“Not everybody with a womb has to have a child, like not everybody with vocal chords has to be an opera singer. It’s a choice, and it’s a wonderful choice, but if everybody has to do it, it’s no longer a choice.” —Gloria Steinem
