IlliniGuys Sports Spectacular (Weekend of March 1, 2025) Heartland Newsfeed
The old guy ahead of me in the grocery check-out looked about two coughing spells away from the Promised Land. I didn't notice him until he tried to pay with a credit card, and the clerk told him it expired in 1997. Then, he noticed me. "Hey, buddy," he smiled, "how ya doin'? Remember me from high school?" "Sure," I lied, "but I don't remember what class you taught." "Nah," he replied, "I'm Ray, and I sat behind you in […]
In light of recent celebrity deaths and a growing movement to remove the stigma from mental health issues, depression and suicide continue to make front page news. But as a recent study revealed, many Americans may not even realize they're at risk for developing depression or experiencing suicidal thoughts simply due to the prescription medications they're taking. According to a report published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, approximately one-third of Americans are currently taking prescription drugs that […]
SPRINGFIELD (Heartland Newsfeed) -- A former Central Illinois village trustee and treasurer will soon appear in a Federal court jury trial following a Federal indictment for fraud. Nancy Finley, 52, of Pana, was indicted in Federal court last month on three charges of wire fraud. She is expected to appear in Springfield for an August jury trial. Finley is accused of stealing more than $150,000 in cash payments from the village on several instances. She was arrested by officers from […]
COLLINSVILLE (Heartland Newsfeed) -- A conference covering the cultural tradition of the ancient Mississippian tribes will take place this coming weekend. The state historic site at Cahokia Mounds is hosting the conference Saturday, July 28, with kickoff at 8:30 a.m. The event's open to the public, with a $5 registration fee at the door of the Interpretive Center auditorium. The Mississippian tribes lasted four centuries in the Midwestern United States, later migrating southbound. As a result of their southbound migrations, large […]
When I was a kid, door-to-door sales folks rang our bell all the time. They sold just about anything. One time I bought encyclopedias from a guy at my door. Call me a softie, but I can’t turn down anybody holding 26 books in each arm. I hope he sold that other set, too. Which leads me to ask: When was the last time a telephone sales call really messed up your day? Was the call from a real person, […]
Believe it or not, submarines have been used for warfare since the American Revolutionary War (though they wouldn't be used successfully until much later). Of course, submarine technology has advanced by leaps and bounds since the first primitive submarines took to the seas. Today, in order to avoid detection by enemy sonar, submarines must operate a minimum of 100 metres below the "Sonic Layer Depth", which means they must be made of metals that can withstand intense pressures. Today the […]
Facebook has spent years promoting an exciting new project: building Facebook drones that can deliver Internet access to the world. The drones were to be solar-powered and have a wingspan bigger than a Boeing 737, allowing them to fly around the world to bring Internet to those in remote places who can't get WiFi anywhere else. However, the social media company has announced it will no longer be building the drones. After a crash and increased competition from traditional aviation companies, […]
There are many characteristics and traits that you learn throughout your life, each one adding to your personality and making you a better person. Sometimes you learn these qualities through fictitious characters from books and movies, sometimes your parents teach you these lessons early on, and other times you learn them from construction foremen. Yes, you read that right: a construction foreman has a lot to teach you about being a productive member of society. If you're curious as to […]
Elderly Americans have all kinds of serious issues that occupy their thoughts. Elderly individuals have to deal with all kinds of health concerns, memory problems and financial trouble. In fact, the Metlife Mature Market Institute recently reported the total loss suffered by victims of elder financial abuse each year is $2.6 billion. Combine those concerns with chronic healthcare problems and it's easy to see why comparatively minor issues such as untreated cavities could go ignored. However, new research shows that […]
