Six mature-friendly shades. One mascara that actually stays put.

Most mascaras promise length… then leave you with smudges, flakes, and clumps by lunchtime.

That’s why so many 50+ women are switching to PrimeLash.

It’s a tubing mascara designed for your lashes, wrapping each one to lift, define, and separate...even the ones that might be too small to see.

And when it’s time to take PrimeLash off? It slides right off with warm water. No rubbing or irritation.

From everyday black to soft brown, plus bold shades like Emerald, Burgundy, and Mulberry… there’s a color for every kind of day.

Get longer-looking lashes with zero smudge. Finally.

The Last Time Stocks Were This Expensive Was December 1999.

"Right now, it's good. But it was in '72, '86, 2000, and 2007." - Jamie Dimon, May 2026.

The Shiller CAPE ratio just hit 42.3. The only time in 140 years it's been higher? December 1999.

Stocks can stay expensive for a long time...

It’s one metric to consider, but when your portfolio is built around the most expensive equities in modern history, what else you diversify with could really matter.

Blue-chip contemporary and post war art has shown near-zero correlation with the S&P since 1995.* Prices are largely driven by private collectors competing for a fixed supply of artwork by artists like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso.

Masterworks lets you invest in shares of that market.

  • $1.3B deployed across 500+ artworks

  • 29 exits to date

  • Net annualized returns like 16.5%, 17.6%, and 17.8%, not including those unsold

Three 40-Foot Dandelion Sculptures Rise Along Salem Parkway — and Not Everyone's Happy

If you've driven down Salem Parkway recently, you've probably noticed something new rising above the road. Three towering steel-and-aluminum dandelion sculptures now stand along the corridor as part of "Invasive Hope," a public art project years in the making — and now sparking a community conversation.

The project, led by artist Chad Cheek, represents the full lifecycle of a dandelion: from yellow buds near the ground to a 40-foot-tall seed puff near Truist Stadium. The goal was to symbolize resilience and create a gateway image for the city.

The $1 million-plus price tag has raised eyebrows, but city officials say the money came from a 2018 voter-approved bond earmarked for Business 40 corridor improvements — funds that couldn't legally be redirected elsewhere.

"The way bonds work is residents have a list of projects, and they can place a vote on this ballot," explained city planner Kelly Bennett. "When you allocate the money to enhance the corridor, that is legally what you can spend that money on."

A ribbon-cutting is set for Monday, June 9 at 10 a.m. behind Truist Stadium on the Twin City Trail.

WS/FCS School Board Reverses Calendar Vote: School Year Starts Aug. 10

Just six days after approving a traditional calendar, the WS/FCS Board of Education reversed course. Board members voted 6-2 at a special-called meeting to return to the modified schedule. The 2026-27 year now starts August 10 and ends May 21. IB educators at Parkland Magnet pushed hard for the reversal — international exam dates are set globally and don't bend to local schedule changes.

Forsyth County Passes FY27 Budget After Sheriff's Public Pushback

After Sheriff Bobby Kimbrough held a press conference calling the proposed $599 million budget a "slap in the face" to residents — citing staffing shortages, aging patrol vehicles, and over 1,800 calls per year with no deputy available — Forsyth County commissioners voted Thursday on the FY 2026-27 budget. The new fiscal year begins July 1.
