Weather It’s the media going haywire over Hillary’s health, or about what the next thing Trump is going to say about the wall he plans to build, anything happening with both our candidates this election season ends up being the top story in tomorrow's news. With all of this sensationalism in politics now, it gets harder to find out what is really going on, but not impossible. Here is a synopsis of what Hillary and trump have been up to this past month

What has been going on with Hillary Clinton?

This past month hasn’t been looking particularly the best for Hillary, but regardless of it all, she is still ahead in the Polls, even if it is by a smaller margin. Trump and his antics for the most part, have been kept out of the media, Hillary and her with her Email scandal as well as her health replacing it all. As new evidence about the scandal appears and as more politicians call her out on it all enthusiasm for her campaign dwindles. As for her health, after last weekend her attack of pneumonia made headline page news, making some question whether she will last a presidency if put in office. As we have seen though popularity increases and decreases quickly in campaigns so anything is possible.


What has been going on with Donald Trump

This month the polls have been in favor have been in favor of Donald Trump, showing him ahead in the game. A month earlier Clinton had a 9-point lead over Trump, but over time it has been narrowing. Some say it’s because Trump has made some changes in the way he addresses the press, one of which is starting to spend money on champagne adds, another is him keeping out of high profile conflicts. I't's been a while since he has landed on the front page news for saying something outrageous. Overall this it’s been a good month for him but anything can happen between now and November.

Overall this is how they are both doing now but for total support neither of the politicians are favored. Both candidates are widely disliked by the majority of registered voters, but negative views toward Trump come out to be slightly higher than those toward Clinton, 61 to 56 percent, respectively.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
