Max is in Washington, D.C. with the NAFB.

A Michigan woman died Sunday at the age of 114. She was the 10th oldest person in the world. She may not have made it out of her teens, but she happened to stay home from school on the day a bomb went off at her school.

Have you thought about burial vs. cremation? More people seem to be thinking about cremation.

As of Sunday, Nebraska has about 28 percent of its corn planted, which is alright. Iowa and Illinois are considerably behind the average corn planting pace.
