A federal appeals court on Tuesday heard arguments in the closely watched legal battle over the slavery exhibit at Philadelphia's President's House Site.Two-hundred forty-seven students recently competed in this year's Scripps National Spelling Bee. Central Pennsylvania's champion, Vedika Burman who was backed by WITF and Pennon Education, finished in the top third and hopes to return next year.Forbes is out with its annual "College Financial Grades." Central Pennsylvania colleges received a full range of grades in the report.The Pennsylvania Game Commission is offering one-day summer camps across the state. Junior Game Warden Camps are for youth between the ages of 12 and 15.And now a deep dive – or maybe we should say hop. A State College-area festival, focused on frogs, returned last weekend under new leadership after a two-year hiatus. Organizers say it's important to continue hosting events like this, especially as the federal government cuts back on conservation programs.          Did you know that if every one of WITF's sustaining circle members gives as little as $12 more a month, we'd close the gap caused by federal funding cuts?

Gayle is certainly not alone, so today she is sharing words of wisdom for women who have been cheated on. Plus, he's the spelling king! A 14-year-old just won the annual Scripps National Spelling Bee, and not only can he spell super hard words, but he can also do it really fast.

Gilbert has reportedly been diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, but the jury rejected his insanity defense. As Steven Fabian reports, today he looks a lot different from his glory days.

The high-profile capital murder trial in Fulton County tied to the mass shooting and killing of several Asian women at Atlanta-area spas half a decade ago has stalled again.

Plus: Russell Crowe yelling at autograph hunters, Jerry Seinfeld allegedly crushing a child's spirit, and James Corden once again proving that every rude celebrity rumor about him somehow feels believable.Also in today's mess:Beartooth singer Caleb Shomo publicly comes out and opens up emotionally about his journeyReba McEntire continues being America's favorite redheaded auntRob Base gets remembered properly because “It Takes Two” still slaps at weddingsThe gang debates celebrity jerks and who's secretly awful in real lifeRizz delivers a Dracula impression so powerful it may legally count as theaterThis daily comedy show is packed with celebrity news, hilarious fails, pop culture commentary, weird news, music stories, and the kind of sarcastic group therapy only The Rizzuto Show can provide.

Louisville's own **Frank Neuhauser became the first national champion in 1925 after correctly spelling gladiolus and was welcomed home with a parade.From there… things get significantly stranger.This episode also covers:An antique dealer in Cynthiana who accidentally shot his friend after grabbing the wrong gun from a drawerA jail escapee who voluntarily turned himself in because he wanted a warm bedA defense attorney sentenced to jail for contempt during a murder trialTwo teenage robbers inspired by dime novels whose crime spree quickly unraveledSources:Primarily sourced from April 1926 editions of The Courier-Journal, Owensboro Messenger-Inquirer, Kentucky Post, and other regional newspaper archives.

ÉCLAIRCISSEMENT: Texas Teen Wins 2025 Scripps National Spelling BeeFaizan Zaki, a 13-year-old from Allen, Texas, clinched the 2025 Scripps National Spelling Bee on Thursday, correctly spelling “éclaircissement” to claim the title and over $50,000 in cash and prizes in a dramatic final round.Zaki, last year's runner-up, triumphed over eight finalists in the centennial Scripps National Spelling Bee, hosted at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center near Washington, D.C. The contest began with 243 spellers aged 11 to 14, narrowed to Zaki, Sarv Dharavane, 11, and Sarvadnya Kadam, 14. All three misspelled words in one round, forcing a tense additional round.“I can't remember the last time we've seen this kind of late-round drama here at the spelling bee,” Paul Loeffler, the Bee's TV analyst, said, per CBS News.In the 21st round, Zaki faced Kadam and spelled “éclaircissement,” a noun meaning a clearing up of something obscure. He pumped his fists and collapsed to the floor in excitement after finishing the word.“I'm really happy,” Zaki said afterward. Earlier, he faltered on the spelling of “commelina” but was reinstated after collective missteps by his fellow finalists.Grief tech: redefining death in the age of AIFew experiences are as profoundly impactful as losing a loved one. The void left behind can seem insurmountable, leaving us yearning for just a little bit more time with those we miss. This deeply human desire is fueling the rise of grief tech, which promises to forever change how we preserve the memory of those who are no longer alive.There is a growing number of grief tech start-ups that allow people to have virtual conversations with AI chatbots of their deceased loved ones.While some believe grief tech could help people find closure, there are also concerns that it could have a negative impact on their mental health.“There is evidence from multiple studies that proximity seeking [behaviours aimed at restoring a closeness with the person who died] is actually linked with poorer mental health outcomes,” explains Dr Kirsten Smith, clinical research fellow at the University of Oxford.“Who gets to decide what ‘helping people grieve' means?” asks psychotherapist and grief consultant Megan Devine.“People have always engaged in various kinds of rituals where things are done with the belongings of the deceased, where certain kinds of possessions are preserved,” remarks Dr Elaine Kasket, bereavement lead at the Digital Legacy Association. “This could be seen as a technological version of these analogue, physical rituals.”One thing is certain: as AI continues to evolve, so too will our approach to death and remembrance. The challenge lies in harnessing this technology thoughtfully, ensuring that we do not commit further harm in our efforts to help. By extension, we cannot lose sight of our humanity in our pursuit of digital immortality.
