The city secured $3.15M federal funding for its first All-Abilities Playground at Onion Creek Metro Park, creating an inclusive space for children of all abilities to play together. Inclusion wins! I hope more cities follow.

As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.

"It's a moment to wrestle with our own consciences. We'll be tormented by it for a long time. I will be. And I want to say I'm sorry for misleading people." —Tucker Carlson
America deserved better from the start.
Samsung just expanded Galaxy Connect to non-Galaxy Book Windows PCs. Sounds cool, but it’s also been causing C: drive lockouts on some systems. Already happy with Phone Link, so… is it worth trying Galaxy Connect or should I just leave it alone?
