A few months back, two men walked into the Spotlight Playhouse with a pitch that sounded almost too good to be true. They wanted to build our props. Not sell them to us. Build them, and let us rent them, so a community theater could have real, character driven pieces without the kind of budget […] The post The Makers Behind the Magic: Ken Koshman, Albert Lindsay, and Camp Creations appeared first…
Some movies belong mostly to one generation. Disney’s The Aristocats belongs to several. Many grandparents first met Duchess, Thomas O’Malley, Marie, Toulouse, and Berlioz when the animated movie arrived in theaters in 1970. Parents may remember watching it during a later theater release, on television, or over and over at home. Today’s children are still […] The post A Disney Classic Opens the…
Anthropic has introduced Claude for Teachers, offering verified K-12 educators across the United States a full year of free access to premium Claude capabilities. At first glance, there is very little to criticize in this initiative. Teachers are systemically overworked, school budgets remain perpetually stretched, and lesson planning routinely spills into evenings and weekends. Many […] The post…
For many children, the fast-approaching back-to-school season begins with a standard shopping list. They need sharpened pencils, fresh notebooks, new shoes, and a backpack sturdy enough to survive another year of activity. For a child navigating the foster care system, however, the beginning of a new school year can involve much more complicated changes. There […] The post Back-to-School Carnival…
I have spent enough years around computers to recognize one of the oldest excuses in technology: the computer did it. If a customer was billed incorrectly, an application was rejected, or an employee received an unfavorable score, the blame was routinely shifted to the software.

Many community events require a significant amount of upfront planning. You may need to register days in advance, purchase expensive tickets, gather specialized equipment, or convince a large group of friends to commit to a multi-week schedule. Monday Live Team Trivia at Rebel Rebel Studio & Lounge is considerably simpler: bring a team, join one […] The post Monday Trivia at Rebel Rebel Offers an…
For the past few years, the easiest way for a company to use artificial intelligence was to rent it. Organizations opened an account with OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google, connected to an API, and watched the financial meter run every single time an employee, customer, or software agent submitted a request. This arrangement made practical sense […] The post Companies Are Tired of Renting AI: Open…
Summer has a way of moving faster than expected. June programs begin, the Fourth of July passes, and families start thinking about school supplies before they realize several weeks of summer remain. One useful Berea program is still available throughout that final stretch. The Madison County Public Library’s Berea branch is offering Lunch Bunch To-Go […] The post There Is Still Time for Free…
The regulators are coming. And this time, the industry itself asked for them. For years, the big AI labs had a simple answer when anyone asked about safety: trust us. We are the ones building this. We know the risks. We have internal safety teams. We will figure it out as we go. That era […] The post The Regulators Are Coming – and the AI Industry Asked for Them 🧭 appeared first on…
“A person’s a person, no matter how small.” That simple idea sits at the heart of Seussical the Musical. It also fits the work Spotlight Acting School has been doing in Berea for more than two decades: every student matters, every role matters, and every young person deserves an opportunity to be heard. Spotlight Acting […] The post Seussical Opens Spotlight Acting School’s 24th Season With Two…
