just now (575+ words) The poll, coming less than two weeks after an apartment fire that killed at least 159 people, is a possible test of public sentiment about the government's handling of the tragedy. The focus is on voter turnout, which fell to about 30% in the last election in 2021, after the overhaul dampened interest.

For the Emerson family, it's a celebration fit for their loved one. Mel Emerson died in 2011, but just months ago his family learned his body had been among 24 others found inside the Davis Mortuary in Pueblo.

You've probably noticed it too, people who once posted everything now post" nothing. Birthdays go undocumented, vacations vanish into the camera roll, and nights out remain between friends instead of followers. It's not that life has become less interesting.

Citing the Digital 2025: The State of Social Media report, he notes that while social media identities grew by…...

The stock has become a lightning rod for valuation debates. After a meteoric multi year rise, the shares are still volatile, with the price up 6.7% over the last week, 29.1% over the last month, 100.3% year to date, and 7,816.2% over three years, even though the five year gain sits at a more modest 54.8%. Despite all that excitement, Carvana currently scores 0 out of 6 on our valuation checks, meaning it does not screen as undervalued on any of the standard metrics we track.
