Each November, we “fall back” by setting our clocks one hour earlier as Daylight Saving Time ends. While gaining an extra hour of sleep may sound like a bonus, the shift can still disrupt your body’s internal clock, especially if you’re already sleep-deprived. Our circadian rhythm, which regulates sleep and wake cycles, is influenced by
Many of you have ‘taken a chance’ this week by going to your nearest polling place and expressing your preference as to who elected leaders will be. Some of you recently may have taken another kind of chance by plunking your money down on a sporting event, hoping that your expressed preference will increase your
UConn’s quarterback Joe Fagnano is trending. The Williamsport Area High School grad is having an unbelievable season. He is leading the NCAA in several offensive categories. Fagnano was recently added to the “Manning Award” watchlist. Joe is also gaining momentum with the voters for this year’s Heisman. Unheard of. Sports Illustrated ran a story last
If there’s one garment that a majority of people consistently rely on to get dressed almost every day, it’s denim. Just about everyone wears jeans, whether they’re a piece of your workwear, what you grab to throw on with a T-shirt and sneakers, or part of a tailored blazer, blouse, and chic pair of boots
As we close out October, there are so many issues that seem to bring negativity to our American Spirit. I believe in the two-party system, and Republicans and Democrats work for the American people. Lost in the world of today is the having of a beer and a sandwich together after Congress breaks. This so
Wow, can you believe it? Halloween is already here! Are you ready to dive into the festivities? Make sure you’re all set with comfy shoes and your favorite hoodie. Don’t forget those extra candy bags, flashlights, and batteries! And maybe grab some Tums for when you inevitably overindulge in those delicious Reese’s! Everything looks like
Halloween is almost here — costumes are being finalized, pumpkins are being carved, and candy is being stockpiled like it’s the apocalypse. But before the ghosts, goblins, and superheroes head out for a night of tricks and treats, let’s talk about something that’s just as important as the perfect costume — safety. Costume Check Before
A couple of this year’s Pennsylvania bear seasons are now over; the archery season and the muzzleloader season have ended, but the regular firearms season will run from November 22-25. Pennsylvania offers some pretty good bear hunting, and it looks like this year could offer some pretty good hunting again. I know I have seen
A well-placed shot and careful field care of a deer are critical first steps to ensure great-tasting venison for the dinner table. Most will agree that quickly skinning the deer will aid in cooling the meat, but some hunters will leave the hide on while the deer hangs in a cooler, feeling that will aid
ARIES – Mar 21-Apr 20 Your passion is ignited this week, Aries. A fun hobby might capture your full attention. Don’t be afraid to try something new or put your energy into something you really love. TAURUS – Apr 21-May 21 This week is a great time to focus on the simple pleasures in life,
In 2018, an unheralded little documentary came out with this oddball title: 78/52. Dedicated solely to the shower scene in Hitchcock’s Psycho, that film took its title from the number of camera set-ups and shots contained in that now-legendary sequence. It’s safe to say that no one else ever has made — or ever will
Pregnancy and/or infant loss can be one of the most devastating experiences a person can face. Whether it happens early in pregnancy or later on, the grief can be deep, complex, and often invisible to others. During Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, we honor those who have suffered this loss and acknowledge the many
By Edgar Allan Poe Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber
The sound of genuine need echoed through the Lycoming County Commissioners meeting on October 16, 2025, as Holly Beaver stepped forward to represent an organization whose mission touches hundreds of lives every month. Executive Director Beaver spoke passionately about New Love Center, a comprehensive hunger relief organization serving Clinton and Lycoming counties with programs that
Although it is not a word most folks use in everyday conversation, conundrum was a word often used by a colleague during my pre-retirement working days. Meaning “puzzle, mystery, challenge,” it sounded a bit like a sophisticated way to express ‘there’s trouble ahead.’ Somewhere along life’s path of journalistic learning, I was told the number
The Fall is my favorite time of year to play, and I successfully teed it up a few times in September. I’m also off to a great start here in October. This is the most I’ve golfed in many years. The Lycoming College Warriors and I are currently en route to Shawnee on the Delaware.
In today’s world, we have more access to information and technology than ever before. When used correctly, these tools can be incredible — helping us learn, connect, and share knowledge across generations. For example, my wife uses an app to learn a different language, and I use a Bible app to help me study. These
Leggings in one form or another have been around since the 18th century. Originally worn by men, usually made of cloth or leather, leggings or leg wrappings were seen as a functional garment for soldiers and trappers. Nowadays, leggings are mostly considered women’s wear that is both functional and fashionable. Function in that they are
My Father loved this time of year as football season was just getting interesting, the World Series was on our doorstep, and of course, election day was just around the corner. He loved the Mummers’ Parade and the Halloween season. I’ve shared in past articles how Dad always liked playing a good trick on folks.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and this year’s theme — “Every Story is Unique, Every Journey Matters” — reminds us that behind every diagnosis is a person. A story. A journey of courage, resilience, and hope. As the World Health Organization (WHO) puts it: “Every breast cancer diagnosis is personal… this theme reminds us
I’m going to preface this by saying I played sports, so it’s what I connect to. But even if your passion is reading, music, or something else, I think the underlying message still applies. As I’ve mentioned in a previous article, when I’m “in” on something, I’m all in. Growing up, that “something” for me
I know this time of year, most of the outdoor gang is gravitating towards the various hunting seasons, but for those of us who also include fishing in our outdoor adventures, this is still a good time to hit the water. I’ll admit that the fishing opportunities have been a little tough late this summer
The aroma of fresh coffee and warm conversation will fill American Legion Post 1 on November 13th as State Representative Jamie Flick hosts his third annual Veterans Breakfast, continuing a cherished tradition that exemplifies his unwavering commitment to those who served our nation.

He co-owns and operates a successful catering business called Chef Hosch and Ann Catering, inc. Recently, he has become involved in a new and interesting venture. He now has his own weekly
Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 shocker Psycho has inspired three sequels and two TV shows—including AMC’s five-season Bates Motel, with Freddie Highmore as Norman Bates; there was also a surreal shot-for-shot color remake in 1998; and a “making-of” movie starring Anthony Hopkins, Helen Mirren and Scarlett Johansson (they play, respectively, Hitch, his wife and actress Janet Leigh).
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women, but it is also one of the most treatable when caught early. Early detection not only improves survival rates but can also mean less aggressive treatment and a better quality of life. As we recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it is an important reminder
I love this time of year. North Central PA is glowing. Fall brings us many vibrant colors. Changes are in the air. It is just a shame that it gets dark at 6 pm. This totally dampens my extracurricular activities. Yes. I am still coaching golf at Lycoming. The Warriors are making me look good.
The leaves of October hadn’t yet started to fall, but the month’s second week produced a cascading plummet of rooting hopes for a bevy of area fans whose favorite team’s championship aspirations came crashing to the ground. While the New York Mets, baseball’s biggest spenders, didn’t even make it to October, the Big Apple’s behemoth
Button-down shirts come in a variety of shapes, sizes, prints, and fabrics. They can be a basic white shirt that is your office go-to, or of the frilly floral variety for an evening out. This season, the oversized version seems to be on trend, and while you might think there’s only one way to wear
The Lycoming County Commissioners will convene on October 9, 2025, facing complex decisions that reflect the evolving needs of our community.
