In Switzerland, autumn brings a charming tradition — cows adorned with vibrant flowers and clanging bells are led down from alpine pastures to the valleys, marking their return for winter.

Jesse Jackson appeared on Sesame Street in 1973.

During his appearance, he famously led a group of children in reciting his well-known poem “I Am Somebody,” a message focused on self-worth and empowerment.

The segment became one of the most memorable celebrity appearances from the early seasons of the show.

RIP Jesse Jackson.

“Stop crying,” Rick Rescorla told his wife, on 9/11. “I have to get these people out safely. If something should happen to me, I want you to know I’ve never been happier. You made my life.”

Lauren Bacall would have turned 100 today.

In 1946, she was immortalized in the WB cartoon, Bacall to Arms.

They don't make cartoons like this anymore. 😂

“The woman behind an early Facebook post spreading a harmful and baseless claim about Haitian immigrants eating local pets says she had no firsthand knowledge of any such incident and is now filled with regret and fear as a result of the ensuing fallout.” https://t.co/Wm4mRSpSJI

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

1/The woman who posted that immigrants were eating pets on Facebook has now recanted, saying she is filled with regret & fear "as a result of the ensuing fallout." She posted after a neighbor told her that her cat was missing & she thought it was immigrants. https://t.co/jWcLhuAcnB
