    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    An estimated 321,910 women in the United States will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2026, according to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. The median age at diagnosis is 62. But the highest increases in the percentage of women diagnosed with breast cancer — 16% — have been reported in women under 50, according to the foundation, marking a 1.4% increase between 2012 and 2021. That’s the largest increase of all breast cancer diagnoses in women. What’s especially concerning is that women und

    AI in the newsroom: It’s here, but needs guardrails - The Chestnut Hill Local (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I tapped out my first news stories at the Hatboro Public Spirit on a bulky Olivetti-Underwood manual typewriter roughly the size and weight of a 1970 Buick Regal.

    There are more than 795,000 strokes every year in the United States, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    Putting ‘fun’ in funeral: Creative last wishes for your farewell - The Chestnut Hill Local (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    There’s no getting around it. Funerals — most funerals, anyway — can be very sad affairs. But there’s worse. Virtually everyone makes a mark in life, and there are funerals where you would never know what impact the deceased had before slipping this mortal coil.
