Ninety-Year-Old Climbs Kilimanjaro | Spokane News

At 90, Art Ulene conquered Mount Kilimanjaro for his birthday—his second attempt, this time at a slower pace to suit his age. With breaks every hour and rocky terrain, he battled through the climb, then celebrated at the summit with cake, song, and dance. Now, he’s eyeing a new adventure: skiing down mountains, already snagging a pass and lessons. Ulene’s message? Find your own “mountain”—a personal challenge worth tackling. He’s not chasing Everest, but living vibrantly, inspiring others to rise, push, and wonder how he keeps going. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Who's Really Funding the Race | Spokane News

Who’s really pulling the strings in this election? While big donors fund campaigns legally, it’s hard not to question loyalty. Dr. Pam’s campaign stands out by backing from nurses, educators, and everyday citizens—no energy company cash. Her opponent? Took the max from Avista and Inland Power. The real test? Can candidates explain how their money matches their promises? Transparency matters—our leaders should serve us, not special interests.

Two Wild Crimes from American History | Spokane News

In 1976, fugitive James Schoenfeld tried to cash in on a gun deal in Spokane—armed with five loaded weapons and tons of ammo—only to trigger an FBI hunt after hinting he was heading to Canada. Meanwhile, in 1926, berry-picking kids near Liberty Lake stumbled upon a dynamite stash powerful enough to blow up a mountain, with two blasts already rocking nearby cottages. The site also showed signs of moonshine production, sparking panic and demands for answers from the town. Two bizarre crimes, decades apart, both leaving communities shaken and history’s weirdest chapters intact. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Edinburgh Charges Tourists for Stays | Spokane News

Edinburgh just became the UK’s first city to charge tourists a 5% overnight stay fee—yes, even for hotels, Airbnbs, and campsites—for up to five nights, with all proceeds funding cleaner streets, more park rangers, tree planting, and cultural site restorations. The move, backed by a Scottish government bill, aims to ease overtourism and boost local infrastructure, generating £50 million annually—over $67 million—to reinvest in the city. Inspired by Amsterdam and Venice, Glasgow is set to follow suit in 2027. It’s a small cost for a big return: a more livable, vibrant Edinburgh for everyone.

Antarctica’s Hidden Hummingbird | Spokane News

Scientists just dropped a jaw-dropping image from Antarctica that looks like a hummingbird in mid-flight — but it’s actually a mountain peak piercing through ice, with “feathers” made of radar-painted crevasses. Captured by NASA and India’s NISAR satellite, this powerful radar can see through ice to reveal hidden movements and stresses, turning Antarctica’s barren landscape into a dynamic, X-ray-like map. Launched in July 2025, NISAR scans the entire planet every 12 days, delivering stunning visuals like this one — proof that we’re just scratching the surface of what this mission can reveal about our changing planet.
