Sponsored ContentIf you’ve ever researched zodiac signs, chances are you either believe in the power of the stars to determine your personality, destiny, and place in the world; or you think it’s all a load of Taurus crap.Although relentless internet bullying may have led you to believe otherwise, these two perspectives can actually peacefully coexist. Unless you’re a tinfoil hat conspiracy theorist, the one undeniable truth about this subject is that the stars are always above us—or around us in every direction, if you want to get a little more scientifically accurate.They watch over us—they bear witness to how we as individual people and as entire societies grow and evolve over time. Their eternal presence has helped us navigate the planet we inhabit; they’ve lit up the sky since way before the dawn of electricity or even fire.We look up to them for inspiration, solace, and in deeply human curiosity. Whether or not you believe in their ability to affect the outcomes of our decisio...Dear Abby: She makes Christmas a nightmare with her bizarre demands

In the world of education, July isn’t just a month of squeezing in beach weeks or backyard barbecues.It’s a time of transition for school districts, when new superintendents begin the work of settling in to demanding jobs, and in Maryland, those jobs will require them to work through the implementation of a long-term school reform plan called the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future.In Maryland, 12 of the 24 school districts in the state appointed new superintendents or interim superintendents in the past two years.Douglas Anthony is the Director of the University of Maryland’s Doctorate of Education and School System Leadership program and said the issue of turnover isn’t new. Anthony, whose experience includes working as a classroom teacher and administrator in Prince George’s County schools, calls the job of superintendent “the toughest in the school system.”A RAND report in 2022 showed 95% of superintendents surveyed agreed the job had gotten harder in the past decade, but that 85% w...8 people found dead in a boat off Senegal’s coast and a search was launched for possible survivors

DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — Eight migrants were found dead after a boat capsized off the coast of northern Senegal as it tried to reach Europe, the government said.The bodies were recovered by the fire department and the navy and a search for survivors has been launched, Senegalese Interior Minister Felix Abdoulaye Diome said Thursday in the northern fishing city of Saint-Louis where the bodies were brought.The director of the morgue in Saint-Louis, Mourtalla Mbaye, told The Associated Press that approximately 155 people were on board and many of the survivors were injured and receiving treatment in a military zone in the city. Six bodies were brought to his morgue — all were men who drowned. It was unclear how many people survived and how many were still missing, he said.The boat, rescued Wednesday evening, comes days after seven others were found dead and 50 were rescued on a different vessel also bound for Europe and discovered off the coast of Saint-Louis.

Published Tue, 05 Nov 2024 08:08:41 GMT
When Oldham County High School Principal Natalie Brown attended her first wrestling event, the school’s coach, Max Emerson, sent her a message that same night.It was a simple gesture thanking Brown for attending the meet and emphasizing how much he appreciated the support. The fact he sent the note struck Brown, who described Emerson, also a social studies teacher at the school outside of Louisville, Kentucky, as a kind soul.Now, in the days since Emerson was shot and killed on Catholic University’s campus while visiting D.C., Brown said the tight-knit community is in mourning and shock. Emerson was a graduate of the school where he eventually returned to teach, and was a standout wrestler, once emerging as the state champion.Brown described Emerson as beloved by students.“He was very close with our wrestlers,” Brown said. “Some of our kids who were a little bit more squirrelly at times were always eager to listen to how Mr. Emerson would kind of direct...Latest news
