Dominating a field is a mixed blessing. On one hand, it gives you extensive reach, immensely profitable products, and — if you’re just too good at it — the horrific realization your brand name has been commodified to the point that hundreds of millions of people now use your proper noun as a verb. (It […]

EDWARDSVILLE - The Edwardsville Touch-A-Truck event this past Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, again attracted thousands of families to Township Park. This year's event had 50 vehicles and considerable business support. There were a variety of children's activities and the most popular appeared to be face painting, which drew a crowd the entire time. The medical helicopter present was again the most visited with a constant line. Children were able to sit in the helicopter and hear an explanation of how everything worked. Adam Colvin, the administrator of Edwardsville Township, said they were extremely pleased with its highest turnout ever and the highest turnout of vehicles. “Some vehicles are pretty big and we have to have space,” Colvin added. “We knew we had almost 50 vehicles, which is the most we have had. We also had the highest sponsorships from businesses and feel this was our most successful Touch-A-Truck event ever. We also had really great weather.” Colv

I just finished reading Number Go Up, Zeke Faux's tale of the rise and fall of crypto. For the most part it's an engaging book but not a surprising one. Basically, crypto is a scam, and every crypto company is running pretty much the same scam. Details aside, the book didn't change my view of ...continue reading "Thousands of Asian slaves are behind a popular online scam"

ALTON - The Alton Redbirds finished a disappointing fourth place at regionals last Wednesday, Sept. 27, at Belk Park Golf Course. Only the top three schools move on as a team. The top 10 individuals outside of those schools also qualify. The same thing works to qualify for the state tournament. So, after being bested by O'Fallon for the third and final team spot, the Redbirds had to settle for three individual spots, seniors Alex Siatos and Cooper Haegen, and junior Sam Ottwell. Siatos shot a three-over-par 75 at Belk Park Golf Course last Wednesday. Ottwell shot a 78 and Hagen shot an 81. The three took to Monday's Pekin Sectional at Lick Creek Golf Course vying to earn a spot at state. The only way to do so would be in the top 10 individuals and it was a blistering cut line at seven-over-par 79. Ottwell ended up shooting two-over-par 74, earning himself a second-place finish at the sectional and a state berth. Siatos shot an 80 and Hagen came up with an 89. "As we expected

In round numbers, prices have gone up 20% since the start of the pandemic and wages have also gone up 20%. For most of us it's a wash. But that's not how most people see it. They ...continue reading "Why is inflation such a big issue?"
