If you want to feel better, move better, and look refreshed—this is one local spot worth checking out.

Many people believe Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb, but the real story is more complex.

Earlier inventors like Humphry Davy and Joseph Swan had already created electric lights, yet their designs were too dim, costly, or short-lived.

It wasn’t until 1879 that Edison and his team revolutionized lighting by developing a bulb that was practical for daily use.

They engineered a carbon filament bulb that glowed for over 13 hours—a significant breakthrough.

What set Edison apart was building a complete electrical system that supplied power to homes, making electric lighting possible on a large scale.

This is why Edison is remembered: not for being first, but for making the lightbulb usable, reliable, and accessible everywhere.

Fun Fact: Edison famously tested more than 1,000 different materials to find the perfect filament for his lightbulb invention.

Are you aware of your posture right now?

With hours spent on phones and laptops, poor posture is an easy habit to develop — but it often leads to tension, discomfort, and tiredness over time.

Practicing a simple Posture Power Check just takes seconds and can make a real difference.

Sitting or standing tall, rolling your shoulders back, aligning your screen to eye level, and gently engaging your core are all quick steps to reset your posture and help protect your spine.

Local experts recommend checking your posture every 30–60 minutes — especially while working, scrolling, or driving in Palm Beach County.

Set reminders with daily triggers like checking your phone or starting a new task.

Consistent, small posture resets can boost your energy, ease aches, and keep you feeling strong all day.

Strathcona County residents may soon encounter increased water bills following the closure of a major water station.

Local businesses that depend heavily on water, including greenhouse operators, are raising alarms about rising operational costs and the possibility of passing these costs to customers.

This comes after a history of water restrictions in the area, most recently in July 2025 when an emergency repair on the main EPCOR supply line temporarily limited water use.

The county’s Utilities Director is urging the community to conserve water, emphasizing that every measure helps keep reservoirs sufficient for essential needs.

Residents are encouraged to save water by minimizing shower times, postponing unnecessary water activities, and turning off taps when not needed.

Ongoing dialogue between the county and its citizens remains vital as Strathcona County addresses water availability and cost concerns.

Still Looking For A Loving Home

Hanna Banana is a lively puppy found with her brother in Sherwood Park, both in need of care.

Initially underweight, she’s now thriving, thanks to attentive foster care.

Thought to be a collie, shepherd, and husky mix, Banana is highly intelligent and affectionate.

She adores cuddling, learning quickly, and delights in puzzle toys while still working on manners like counter surfing.

Banana’s gentle nature and skittishness suit a patient family, ideally with another dog and a backyard to play in.

Force-free training and older children are ideal to help her build confidence.

Spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated, she’s ready for her forever home.

Groups like NASAP and Heart Prints Dog Rescue Society are devoted to local pet adoption and care.

Neighborhoods such as Heritage Hills and Foxboro offer plenty of space for pets in Sherwood Park, making puppy adoption a rewarding choice.

He’s adaptable, social, and will soon be neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated, including for rabies and FRCP, on December 8.

The adoption fee covers spay/neuter, vaccines, parasite treatments, FIV/FeLV testing, a vet checkup, and any extra veterinary care.
