By: Vanessa Buechler  Many think of classic books as dated and difficult to read, but their timeless, lasting impacts on how we connect with the past makes them continuously vital to our understanding of the present. I’ve recently been getting into reading classics, or books classified as remarkable, and I understand why it’s a challenge for people to pick them up. But if you push past the feeling of how difficult it may be to read them at the start, you’ll find fascinating storytelling that should be celebrated for years to come. Here are the most recent classic novels I’ve read, and why you should read them, too.

By: Shaun Inake  2024 was undoubtedly a record-breaking year in terms of climate change and its impacts, and 2025 shows no signs of slowing the strengthening of unprecedented weather patterns.
According to the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration), yearly global ocean temperatures in 2024 were exceedingly warmer than average; in fact, it was the highest global temperature dating back to 1850 when NOAA began collecting data Earth’s average land and ocean surface temperatures were 2.32 (F) degrees higher than the 20th century average. The higher water temperatures leads to higher rates of evaporation, leading to higher concentrations of vapor in the atmosphere, 5 percent more than the 1991-2020 average.

The 5.7, 6.2, and 6.4-liter engines were their most popular to buy for big horsepower numbers and the sound that they made.
However, Dodge stopped production of their V8 engines in late 2023 in wake of the new electric vehicle mandate. On top of that, a new electric charger was released in fall of 2024. |
