The speech marked one of Anderson's most detailed public accounts of the diagnosis and its fallout. She told the crowd her doctor delivered the news bluntly, Variety…Open

A public-records company has launched a free website called "Stud or Dud" that lets singles run background checks on potential dates, a move aimed squarely at the growing epidemic of romance fraud draining Americans of millions. PeopleFinders, a firm with more than two decades in the public-records business, rolled out the platform last week. The site pulls from publicly available records, address histories, bankruptcy filings, and other data points, and packages them with color-coded red and green flags and what the company calls "compatibility readouts." The pitch is simple: find out whether the person on the other end of a dating app is who they claim to be before you ever meet them in person. CEO Amber Higgins told the New York Post …Open

Officials shut off all exterior lights on the 630-foot Gateway Arch in St. Louis this week to keep night-migrating birds from fatal collisions, a move that will leave the iconic monument in darkness until October 1. The lights-out order covers every exterior fixture on the stainless-steel landmark, removing a glow that federal wildlife authorities say can lure birds from miles away and send them circling until they crash into the structure or collapse from exhaustion. Gateway Arch officials confirmed the shutdown and set October 1 as the date the lights will return, timed to the tail end of the fall migration window. The decision reflects a straightforward tradeoff: a few weeks of a darker skyline against the documented risk of mass bird…Open

A powerful eruption from Indonesia's Anak Krakatau volcano forced the closure of eight airports, including Southeast Asia's second-busiest, canceling more than 1,500 flights and leaving roughly 170,000 passengers stranded.
