Karl just wrote about CNET, a once-vaunted resource for tech journalism, absolutely stepping on every rake it could find by using AI-generated content that was absolutely laughable: the content tended to be inaccurate, plagiarized, or otherwise so full of mistakes that an army of editors had to rework the content, largely wiping away any cost […]
Hundreds of illegally transported Antilles pinktoe tarantulas were intercepted by the federal government before they could enter the pet trade, and now, 98 of them reside at the Sophia M. Sachs Butterfly House in Chesterfield. Missouri Botanical Garden entomologists share what it’s like to care for these endangered spiders, how they are a vital part of the ecosystem in their home country and why it’s important to avoid support of the black market for exotic insects.
The City of Pagedale struggled with underdevelopment and underinvestment for decades which led to higher crime rates and poor health outcomes. In 2010 the North County municipality welcomed its first grocery store in over forty years, Save-A-Lot, after years of working with city and community leaders as well as Beyond Housing. In the 11 years after Save-A-Lot opened, Pagedale saw a dip in crime and an uptick in property values. So when the discount grocery chain closed, it was a cause of worry that the progress made would be lost. Soon locally owned Fields Foods will move in and Beyond Housing’s CEO Chris Krehmeyer hopes to make the transition smooth for business and the people of Pagedale.

EDWARDSVILLE — Madison County State’s Attorney Tom Haine announced Tuesday that a judge has handed a 40-year prison sentence to a predator who sexually assaulted a child. Jesse W. Chartrand, 43, of Glen Carbon received the sentence Tuesday for one count of predatory criminal sexual assault and two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse.

While no punishment could possibly make up for what they’ve experienced, we pray that this sentence brings them some degree of healing.” He added, “The State’s Attorney’s Office will always aggressively prosecute sex offenders who prey on innocent children.
