Moore has spoken candidly over the years about her journey as a parent of two. In an interview from back in 2015, she told Scary Mommy that she feels tremendously lucky for where she is, but she also hopes she's done a good job as a parent.

"The thing about being a mother is that your responsibility and your love for your children is so enormous that it kind of overcomes everything. I knew that my job as a mother was to make sure that my children were happy and educated and safe and to give them every kind of possibility in his life. That’s the way every mother feels. I hope I’m a good mother. I think we all hope we’re good mothers," she shared. "I think my children are happy and seem to be doing well. I feel fortunate in the way that my life is structured, that I’m kind of allowed to explore lots of emotional avenues in my work. I think that’s left me in a place where I have a lot of balance in my life, where I can kind of be together in different places and fall apart in others. I’m lucky."

Popular Italian Destination Implements New Rule, and It Actually Helps Tourists

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 9:23am

If it feels like Europe is cracking down on tourism lately, that’s because it is. From entry fees in Venice to crowd limits in Florence and reservation systems at major attractions, a wave of new restrictions is reshaping how travelers experience the continent. But while many of these rules can feel like barriers, one new policy in Capri is a rare example of regulation that actually improves the tourist experience.

The New Rule in Capri: No More Aggressive Sales Tactics

Capri, the glamorous island off the coast of Naples, has long struggled with overtourism. During peak season, it sees up to 50,000 visitors per day, far outnumbering its local population. 

To manage the chaos, local officials recently introduced a ban on aggressive street solicitation. That means restaurant hosts, tour operators, and vendors are no longer allowed to approach tourists in public spaces with persistent or intrusive sales pitches. Anyone who violates the rule can face fines ranging from €25 to €500, signaling that the city is serious about enforcement. 

At first glance, it might sound like just another restriction, but in reality, it tackles one of the most frustrating parts of visiting a busy destination.

Why This Rule Actually Benefits Tourists

If you’ve ever walked through a crowded European hotspot, you’ve likely experienced the constant stream of “Come in!” or “Best price!” from competing businesses. It can turn what should be a relaxing stroll into a stressful, high-pressure environment.

Capri’s new rule changes that dynamic completely.

By eliminating aggressive solicitation, visitors can explore the island at their own pace, without feeling pressured into decisions or constantly deflecting sales pitches. The experience becomes calmer, more enjoyable, and closer to what travelers actually expect from a luxury destination.

It also restores a sense of authenticity. Instead of being pulled into tourist traps, visitors can discover restaurants, shops, and experiences more organically. In a place known for its elegance, that shift aligns the atmosphere with the brand Capri has always tried to project.

Part of a Bigger Trend Across Europe

Capri’s move isn’t happening in isolation. Across Italy and Europe more broadly, destinations are introducing stricter tourism controls to deal with record-breaking visitor numbers.

In Rome, for example, new fees have been introduced for access to popular sites like the Trevi Fountain. In Cinque Terre, visitors must reserve time slots for certain trails. And Venice has implemented day-trip entry fees to limit overcrowding. Even Capri itself has added other rules, including caps on tour group sizes and bans on loudspeakers and oversized guide umbrellas. 

The goal across all these measures is the same: reduce congestion, protect historic sites, and improve the quality of life for residents. But for tourists, these policies often come with extra planning, added costs, and less spontaneity.

The Difference: Restriction vs. Experience Enhancement

What makes Capri’s solicitation ban stand out is that it doesn’t limit access, but instead it improves the experience. Many tourism rules focus on controlling numbers: fewer visitors, timed entry, or additional fees. While effective, they can make travel feel more complicated or exclusive.

Capri’s approach is different. Instead of restricting the number of visitors, it improves the experience of those who visit the destination. It removes friction rather than adding it. That distinction matters. It shows that not all tourism regulations have to feel like obstacles; some can actually enhance the very thing travelers are seeking.

A Glimpse Into the Future of Travel

As global travel continues to rebound, more destinations will likely follow Italy’s lead in implementing new rules. The challenge will be finding the balance between preservation and accessibility.

Capri offers a compelling model. By targeting specific pain points, like aggressive street selling, it improves conditions for both locals and visitors without fundamentally changing who gets to visit.

For travelers, that’s a welcome shift. Because at the end of the day, the best destinations aren’t just beautiful, they’re enjoyable to experience. And sometimes, a well-placed rule can make all the difference.

Costco's Latest Frozen Mango Dessert is the 'Perfect Treat For Hot Summer Days': 'I Just Know That Tastes So Refreshing'

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 9:14am

There's no shortage of fantastic treats to try when it comes to the dog days of summer, each of which are guaranteed to prove some momentary relief from the harsh seasonal heat.

Whether you're partial to an ice-cold soda or a towering cup of ice cream, there are indeed plenty of strong food items that are every bit as refreshing as they are utterly delicious.

With that being said, Costco might very well have released its most exciting (and altogether refreshing) product yet in the form of their new When We Eat Mango on a Stick.

As the name might suggest, the Mango on a Stick features a frozen mango skewered on a regular popsicle stick. Delivering the perfect tropical mango taste through its rich, cooling frozen texture, the Mango on a Stick also makes for a comparatively healthier treat to enjoy during the hottest days of the year, especially when compared to ice cream or Italian ice.

As the popular food blogger costcohotfinds shared on Instagram, "These taste like literal mango candy. These are so soft, they're sweet and juicy and they are not stringy at all."

Sold in packages of 14 individual sticks per container, the new frozen treats are currently sold at Costco for $12.89, making it a budget-friendly steal for all those interested in a fresh, guilt-free summer snack.

As expected, most fans have been quick to heap praise on the brand-new freezer section arrival, referring to it as a great snack to enjoy amidst the heat of summer.

"Yum oh my gosh I love mango!" commented one user on Instagram. "This would be perfect for hot summer days."

"Love that you mentioned the 'not stringy' [part]. That's so so crucial with mangos," added another shopper.

"I just know that tastes so refreshing," said a third.

Martha Stewart’s Favorite Luggage Brand Just Launched Two High-Octane Colors for Spring

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 9:10am

If you’ve been keeping up with Martha Stewart’stravel selfies lately, you know the lifestyle mogul doesn't just travel; she curates. Martha has been vocal about her devotion to Rimowa’s aluminum trunks, which she uses to facilitate her genius packing hack: encasing clothing in dry cleaner bags and hanging them upright to ensure they remain perfectly uncreased during transit.

While her go-to brand is definitely a "save up" investment, it’s always a thrill to see them break from their iconic muted minimalism—if only for our Pinterest boards. This time, the heritage manufacturer is trading silver and slate for two high-octane hues that are practically impossible to miss at baggage claim.

  • The Orange: Radiating an "energetic glow," this hue is perfect for the traveler who wants to spot their bag from across the terminal in seconds.

Monochromatic Mastery

Each suitcase is crafted from premium polycarbonate with a monochromatic finish, meaning the shell, handles and wheels are all expertly color-matched for a seamless look. On the inside, you'll still find the technical perks that make the brand a "Martha favorite," including the stage-free telescopic handle, the effortless Multiwheel system and the internal Flex Divider to keep your dry cleaner bags perfectly compressed.

The color story doesn't stop at the overhead bin. Rimowa has expanded the palette into its Groove leather line, including a calf-leather Cross-Body Bag in Orange and matching packing cubes to keep your interior as vibrant as the exterior.

Whether you’re heading to the Amalfi Coast or just dreaming of a summer reset, these high-voltage hues are the ultimate cure for boring black luggage.

What Kind of Mom You Are, Based on Your Birth Month

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 9:00am

What does being a mother mean to you, according to the stars? Even before welcoming my daughter almost two years ago, I’ve prickled at the idea that becoming a mom results in losing your identity entirely. I was positive that motherhood would feel like a new evolution in my sense of self. So far, that’s exactly how the experience has been for me — something I attribute in great part to the fact that I have a stellium (that’s three natal chart placements or more) in Leo, the fixed fire sign ruled by the sun, which oversees self-image, identity, and purpose. It goes to show just how much your unique astrology influences your experience as a mom and how you go about raising a child. 

No matter what kind of mom you are, becoming a parent is undoubtedly one of the most magical life experiences. After all, you not only get to see how you evolve into your new caregiving role, but you get a front-row seat to watching your little human grow into who they’re meant to be. As an expert astrologer and the author of Raising Baby by the Stars: A New Parent’s Guide to Astrology, I am passionate about empowering moms to not only understand their little one but themselves through the lens of their birth chart. It can also help to consider your birth month when exploring what kind of mom you are — or will be.

January: The Pragmatic, Future-Oriented Mom

If you were born during the first month of the year, you were born while the sun was moving through hardworking, grounded Capricorn or eccentric, humanitarian Aquarius. Both signs thrive on thinking about what comes next and how they can craft the next chapter of their dreams. They’re hardworking and often quite innovative. In turn, you’re the kind of mom who is apt to instill a serious work ethic in your child. You’ll think about how something they foster at an early age (like a love of theater or martial arts) will bolster their resume down the road. And depending on the moment, you can get behind tradition or thwarting convention, so you excel at teaching your kiddo when to revel in a family bonding moment and when to strike out on their own.

February: The Artistic, Deeply Empathic Mom 

Born when the sun was moving through inventive fixed air sign Aquarius or dreamy, rose-colored glasses-wearing mutable water sign Pisces, your imagination is one of your greatest strengths as a mother. You’ll nurture any tendency your child has to daydream or innovate, steering them toward both learning about STEM and getting lost in fantasy novels. They’ll also feel comfortable leaning on you to work through some of their most challenging emotions, because it’s territory you have a wonderful perspective on, and you know how to be a warm shoulder to lean on. 

March: The Creative, Go-Getter Mom

Because you were born while the sun was moving through mystical, spiritual, mutable water sign Pisces or dynamic, action-oriented cardinal fire sign Aries, you’re in sync with both the ethereal and the concrete aspects of life. Your child likely sees you as both wise and artistic and as someone who knows how to get things done. Whether they lean on you as they think up an out-of-the-box approach to a school project or for motivation before they attempt to learn how to swim or compete in a major school athletic event, they can trust that you’ll be their greatest cheerleader and ally as they take on the world.

April: The Mindful, Down-to-Earth Mom

Born when the sun was moving through Aries, the impulsive, playful cardinal fire sign, or Taurus, the grounded, slow-and-steady fixed earth sign, you’re a truly salt of the earth kind of parent. You’ll teach your child that what truly matters is what you can see, touch, hear, taste, and smell — and that you’ll never go wrong by living in the moment and making the most of every single day. At the same time, you’ll apply your innate go-getter mentality and earthy rationality to any goal that your child wants to set. From you, they’ll learn that they have everything they need to go to bat for their dreams — and they can pursue them at whatever pace is best for them. 

May: The Social, Fun-Loving Mom 

Whether you were born when the sun was moving through friendly, practical fixed earth sign Taurus or buzzy, people-oriented mutable air sign Gemini, relationships are very much a top priority to you in life. You’ll go out of your way to nurture a social circle with other parents in your neighborhood. In turn, you’ll help your little one have an equally vibrant social life by signing them up for classes, taking them to the library, and encouraging them to try an array of extracurriculars. You’ll also bond with them through fun-filled experiences, like hosting picnics at the park and holidays at your house, and having lots of lively, bubbly conversations. 

June: The Upbeat, Sentimental Mom 

Born when the sun was in either social mutable air sign Gemini or deeply caregiving cardinal water sign Cancer, you’re adaptable, adept at communicating, and emotionally wise. You tend to be a natural-born visionary who loves coming up with sweeping game plans for your child, whether you’re planning a family vacation, their first concert, or a trip to check out their dream college. With your big heart and love of music, art, and culture, you’ll always prioritize teaching your child, ensuring they feel nurtured, and making sweet memories alongside your nearest and dearest.

July: The Joyful, Strong-Willed Mom

Whether you came into the world when the sun was moving through nurturing cardinal water sign Cancer or powerful, charismatic fixed fire sign Leo, your heart always leads the charge. You’re loving, confident, dynamic, family-oriented, and deeply protective of your child. You might have a tendency to shower them in gifts, as that may be your love language, or to offer warm, sunny compliments galore. Because you tend to be strong-willed, you might not always see eye-to-eye with your little one, but even when that happens, they’ll feel like you only want the best for them and always have their back.

August: The Sunny, Service-Oriented Mom 

Whether you were born under the theatrical, leadership-oriented fixed fire sign, Leo, or the intuitive, analytical, mutable earth sign, Virgo, you revel in all the trappings of parenthood, from perpetually taking photos and videos of your child to sharing your favorite childhood traditions with them. You’re also highly devoted to being helpful and want to impart that attention to detail to your little one, whether you’re teaching them how to put away their toys or coaching them through a writing assignment. And you can trust that, as a result of your innate warmth and emotional intelligence, your child is sure to bloom. 

September: The Thoughtful, Supercommunicator Mom

Born under either sensitive, cerebral, mutable earth sign Virgo or partnership-oriented, cardinal air sign Libra, you’re thoughtful, detail-oriented, balance-seeking, and diplomatic. You cherish self-expression and building your network — something your child can’t help but learn to prioritize as a result of watching and learning from you. You’ll encourage them to reflect on their feelings and dreams, then share them openly, while also encouraging them to infuse the world with more harmony and peace. They’ll look up to you as someone who wants to nurture those in your orbit and also cares deeply for humanity as a whole.

As a result, your relationship with your own child could reshape your perspective. You pour your whole heart and spirit into motherhood. You’re also fearless when it comes to taking on challenges that pop up. In turn, your child is sure to see you as both impressively powerful and deeply loving. 

November: The Spiritually Intelligent, Adventurous Mom 

Whether you were born under the powerful, fearless fixed water sign Scorpio or the philosophical, jovial mutable fire sign Sagittarius, you believe in going all out in just about everything you do. You’re a vibrant lifelong learner, a natural born mentor, and someone who is eager to explore at every turn. You’ll navigate parenting in the same exact way, encouraging your kid to soak up knowledge and partnering with them to travel, learn a new language, or even better understand themselves through a meaningful spiritual practice or therapeutic self-work. Together, you’ll take life by the reins and do everything you can to make the most of every moment.

In turn, you’ll nurture your child’s belief in themselves and remind them that they can achieve whatever they put their mind to. You bring a larger-than-life vibe and serve as their rock. They’ll benefit from your cheerful, glass-half-full approach and feel like you’re in their corner no matter what.

Chet Hanks, the handsome son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, had a star supporter in the audience at Stagecoach this weekend: His dad.

While Tom is known for iconic films like Apollo 13, Saving Private Ryan, and Philadelphia, Chet, 35, is coming into his own these days. After early roles, guest-starring on Curb Your Enthusiasm and Atlanta, Chet has gone on to recurring roles on series like Empire and Your Honor. But during a performance with his band, Something Out West, at Stagecoach on Saturday, a fan spotted Tom grooving in the crowd like one proud papa.

"Watching Chet Hanks then realizing his dad is next to me," the concert-goer shared on her video, which showed Chet singing onstage, and then panned to Tom, grooving in the crowd in jeans and a cool hat. We love a supportive dad!

Does Chet Hanks Star in any Current TV Shows?

Yes! Now, he stars alongside Kate Hudson in a recurring role on the Netflix series Running Point. At the season 2 Los Angeles premiere at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, Hanks looked quite handsome as he worked the red carpet with his castmates.

Did Chet Hanks Get Stuck in Colombia?

It seems so, but he’s back home now! Apparently, the actor was recently traveling on his Greek passport and visiting friends in Puerto Rico when he decided to head to Colombia for a few days. However, because he didn’t have his American passport, which was about to expire, he was stuck in Colombia. In a unique Instagram video, Hanks declared, “free me.”

“So I’m literally stuck in Colombia. I’m stuck in Medellin. Granted, there’s worse places to be stuck, but I literally have no f—— idea what I’m going to do. And the only embassy to get this shit settled is in Bogotá. I don’t want to go to Bogotá. So, yeah, free me. You know what I’m saying? Free me,” Hanks told the camera.

Don’t worry, because Hanks managed to make it home to sunny Los Angeles safely!

His Memorable Curb Your Enthusiasm Role

Any fan of Curb Your Enthusiasm will remember the hilarious episode where Sammy, the daughter of Jeff and Susie, has a new boyfriend, Victor. But some may not remember that Chet Hanks plays Victor. Naturally, Larry David makes a fool of himself by refusing to say “Thank you for your service” to Victor, enraging the entire household. It’s definitely worth a rewatch!

Twizzlers Debuts New Pull 'n' Peel Milkshake That Fans Can't Stop Talking About

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 8:40am

When it comes right down to it, there's simply no "wrong" way to eat a Hershey's Twizzler.

Whether you choose to bite fully into it, peel off strings one by one or even use the treat as a makeshift soda straw, there are virtually endless ways to enjoy Twizzlers in their famously versatile form.

With that being said, it should hardly come as a surprise that Hershey's is leaning into the flexibility of the iconic red treat with their brand-new interactive dessert, the Twizzlers Pull 'n' Peel Milkshake.

As the name might suggest, the Twizzlers Pull 'n' Peel Milkshake features the same distinct flavor notes commonly found in the eye-catching candy, combined with the rich creaminess of a homemade milkshake.

Blending strawberries and cream ice cream with fresh milk, the resulting mixture is then topped with a swirl of whipped cream, vibrant sprinkles and a hearty supply of Twizzlers Pull 'n' Peel pieces.

The resulting mixture is the ideal treat for all those with an avid sweet tooth, allowing you to tuck into a frothing milkshake and Twizzlers' famous gummy candies in one singular dish.

As great as the treat might sound, it's crucial to note that the Twizzlers Pull 'n' Peel Milkshake can only be found at Hershey World locations across the globe. This includes such standout destinations as Hershey, PA; Times Square; Las Vegas; Niagara Falls; and Singapore.

As expected, the new milkshake has earned a standout response from fans online. However, some users voiced their disappointment at the fact that the new dessert won't be made readily available in additional Hershey locations.

"Might need to road trip to Niagara Falls soon!" one fan commented on Instagram.

"Group Hershey's trip when?" asked another user.

The new Twizzlers Milkshake joins an exciting lineup of unique milkshake flavors exclusively found at Hershey World, including the brand's Bubble Yum Cotton Candy Milkshake; the Cookies n' Creme Milkshake; Reese's Oreo Milkshake; and Hershey's Cafe Espresso Nuggets.

Wendy’s Just Brought Back a Fan-Favorite Sauce—but Not for Long

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 8:31am

Wendy's Sweet & Sour sauce is officially back!

On Monday, the fan-favorite fast-food chain revealed that its "iconic" dipping sauce is returning for a limited time this spring. The announcement comes four months after the brand confirmed it would appease fan demands and revive the condiment, and about seven months after the sauce first disappeared.

This also marks the eighth menu update to be announced within the last week, so if you plan to hit Wendy's for lunch sometime this week, prepare for more options—including a new Frosty Fusion, a watermelon and Jalapeño menu lineup, and of course, the returning fan-favorite Sweet & Sour sauce.

Wendy's Sweet & Sour Sauce Is Back for a Limited Time This Spring

Wendy's Sweet & Sour sauce is a vibrant, versatile pineapple-based dipping sauce with tangy vinegar, zesty bell peppers and spices. It's so popular that not only have fans spent the last several months demanding its return on social media, but they've also attempted to recreate the sauce at home using crowdsourced recipes.

Wendy's Fan-Favorite Sweet and Sour Dipping Sauce is Back

And now that it's back, fans are all asking the same question: Why is it only for a limited time?

"People were heartbroken so you’re bringing it back for a 'limited time'?????," one flustered Instagram user asked.

"WHY TF IS IT ONLY FOR A LIMITED TIME ?" a second demanded to know.

"Why would you take sweet n sour out in the first place?" another joked.

Well, here's the thing—Wendy's appears pretty open to keeping the sauce on menus so long as its customers make it known that they want it back. The company partnered with social media creator Jaz Smith (@JustJazzyIDK) to let fans know that "no dream is too big."

View this post on Instagram

"We asked for Sweet and Sour sauce and Wendy's delivered!" Smith said, and the company is willing to do it again.

According to the April 27 press release, Wendy's wants fans to "get loud" if they want the sauce to stick around. The burger joint is inviting all social media users to like, comment and share its post to let the brand know that this is a change it needs to make permanent. It also said ordering the sauce wouldn't hurt, so the next time you grab Wendy's Tendys, fries, nuggets, or one of its chicken sandwiches, consider pairing it with the Sweet & Sour sauce—even if it's just to see what the hype is all about.

Shirley MacLaine Steps Out in Rare Outing Ahead of Her 92nd Birthday

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 8:21am

Shirley MacLaine was seen enjoying a casual lunch in Malibu on April 18, marking a rare public appearance for the Hollywood icon just days before her 92nd birthday. The outing offers a glimpse of the Oscar-winning actress during a quiet moment away from the spotlight.

In photos published by Page Six, MacLaine appeared to be in good spirits as she left the restaurant after her meal. She was slightly unsteady on her feet and held onto the backs of chairs and someone’s arm as she carefully made her way through the outdoor area of the restaurant.

MacLaine wore a pair of dark slacks, a chocolate brown shirt and a tan cardigan sweater. She accessorized with a pair of round-rimmed sunglasses and a couple of rings.

MacLaine, who is best known for the 1983 film Terms of Endearment, recently told People magazine that she is doing well and that she is "really healthy," despite her advanced age. And, believe it or not, she's still working, though she's become a bit more selective in what she takes on these days.

In 2022, MacLaine appeared in two episodes of Only Murders in the Building starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. Though this is listed as her most recent role on IMDb, she's got a few things in the works for the year ahead, including roles in People Not Places and Margret and Stevie. In October 2026, MacLaine will release The Wall of Life, a book that will provide fans a look back at her life by way of stories and photographs.

Beethoven's 'FĂŒr Elise' Is a 216-Year-Old Mystery Involving a Secret and a Lock of Hair

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 8:20am

On April 27, 1810, Ludwig van Beethoven finished a piano bagatelle that he never intended for the public to hear. He scribbled a dedication on the top of the page and tucked it away. The world didn't lay eyes on it until 1867. By then, the composer was long dead, and the woman who inspired the most famous melody in history had vanished into the fog of the 19th century.

We call it "FĂŒr Elise." But there is a very good chance her name wasn't Elise at all.

The reigning theory is a case of bad penmanship. Ludwig Nohl, the man who discovered the manuscript forty years after Beethoven’s death, claimed the paper was dedicated to a woman named Elise. The problem? The original paper is lost.

Beethoven’s handwriting was notoriously illegible, a jagged scrawl that looked like a bird trapped in an inkwell. Most historians bet that Nohl misread "Therese."

Therese Malfatti was the woman Beethoven wanted to marry in 1810. He was forty; she was nineteen. He bought a new suit. He got a haircut. He proposed. She turned him down for a nobleman. It was a crushing blow for a man already going deaf and losing his grip on social graces.

But there is a second candidate who fits the "Elise" bill. Elisabeth Röckel was an opera singer and a close friend of the composer. Her nickname in certain circles? Elise.

She was moving away from Vienna in 1810, and some scholars argue this haunting, repetitive piano loop was a parting gift. When she died, she had a lock of Beethoven’s hair in her possession and a quill pen he had given her.

And then there is the child prodigy, Elise Barensfeld. She was a thirteen-year-old piano prodigy who lived near Malfatti. Some think Beethoven wrote the piece as a favor to Therese, intended as an easy practice exercise for the young girl.

Why the Mystery Continues

And while modern music means fans know (or can figure out) the inspiration behind every Taylor Swift bridge and trending rap feuds. But "FĂŒr Elise" remains a question mark.

It is a short, moody piece of music with the feel of a private conversation we weren't supposed to overhear. Yet the magic of the piece is that it isn't Beethoven’s song anymore; it belongs to whoever you’re thinking about when you hear those first five notes.

Why This Record-Breaking 'Straddle Coaster' Is the Steampunk Adventure Your Summer Needs

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 8:10am

Six Flags New England has officially launched its newest thriller, the Quantum Accelerator, and it’s officially time to update your summer travel plans. While this steampunk-themed adventure made its debut to the public on April 17, it is already establishing itself as a standout for both hardcore coaster fans and families looking for their next shared adrenaline rush.

“Quantum Accelerator is an exciting new addition that raises the bar for family thrill rides at Six Flags New England,” park manager Bill Falzone says in a press release. “This coaster is sure to become a favorite among guests of all ages. It's the perfect complement to our world-class lineup and reinforces Six Flags New England as the go-to destination for family fun in 2026."

Why the Quantum Accelerator Is the Ride to Watch

Unlike your standard coaster that slowly climbs a hill, this "straddle" coaster puts you in a motorcycle-style position on a hover-bike, leaning forward into the action. The experience is defined by two high-speed launches—one straight out of the gate and a second mid-course burst that propels you to a top speed of 45 mph.

“This unique feature allows you to lean forward and accelerate into the adventure,” the park says. “Keeping a low physical profile helps you manage the high-speed launches, tight twists and banked curves to achieve the maximum adrenaline rush.” 

While it’s billed as family-friendly, don’t let the label fool you. The ride features 11 "airtime" moments (that weightless feeling in your stomach) and a Stengel Dive, a unique maneuver that tilts riders over 90 degrees during a high-speed turn. Early riders have praised the ride's "convoluted layout," noting that the winding track makes it nearly impossible to predict where you're headed next.

What’s New in the Canyon

The coaster is the centerpiece of a larger revitalization of the park's Crackaxle Canyon area. In addition to the ride, the park has upgraded several amenities to round out the experience:

  • JB’s Smokehouse: Located directly across from the ride, this spot has introduced fresh menu items like sirloin steak sandwiches and salads to go along with its signature smoked barbecue.
  • Elevated Dining: Across the park, expect a major step up in food quality, with new offerings like deep-fried Brussels sprouts at Chop Six and hand-breaded fish and chips at the renovated Riverboat CafĂ©.
  • Retail & Refreshments: New gear is available at Screamore Gadgets, while Doc Pemberton's Refresh Station provides a convenient pit stop for those needing a quick drink before heading back into the queue.

With wait times already reaching over two hours during the opening weeks, you’ll want to arrive early to ensure you get your seat on the bike.

Hershey's Releases New Reese's Oreo Milkshake at Hershey World Locations

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 8:07am

It's hard to think of two products more uniquely suited for another one than Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Oreo Cookies.

Providing the perfect combination between rich, decadent peanut butter and smooth, tasty chocolate and cream, both treats feature complimentary flavor characteristics sure to appeal to both chocolate and peanut butter lovers alike.

While both iconic brands have periodically released limited-edition flavor mashups over the past few decades, Hershey's and Oreo are set to bring back one of their most beloved crossovers yet in the form of the Reese's Oreo Milkshake.

Featuring a base of vanilla ice cream blend with milk, peanut butter and chopped Oreo bits, Reese's Oreo Milkshake forms the ultimate sweet treat, formally combining the best Reese's and Oreo has to offer.

Topped with a generous swirl of whipped cream and a drizzle of Hershey's Chocolate Syrup and Reese's Peanut Butter Sauce, the milkshake is then finished with a Reese's Oreo Cup, further highlighting the flavorful combo between Reese's and Oreo's partnership.

Available for a mere $10.98, the standout milkshake creation can exclusively be found at Hershey World locations across the nation. This includes destinations such as Hershey, PA; Times Square; Las Vegas; Niagara Falls; and Singapore.

As expected, the mouthwatering milkshake's arrival has been met with near universal acclaim from fans of the iconic chocolate brand. While most have expressed their excitement at the new product's name, others voiced their disappointment the milkshake won't be available at additional locations aside from its Hershey World offerings.

"The Reese's Oreo Milkshake looks yummy," one user commented on Instagram. "No California locations?"

The new Reese's x Oreo crossover isn't the only exciting thing arriving in international Hershey World locations, of course! Along with the peanut butter-centric dessert, Hershey confirmed the launch of several new milkshake flavors, including Bubble Yum Cotton Candy Milkshake, Hersheys' Cafe Espresso Nuggets Milkshake, a Cookies n' Creme Milkshake and a Twizzlers Pull 'n' Peel Milkshake.

From what Parade understands, the new releases aren't limited to any one store, so fans should be able to find them wherever they purchase other favorites from Cheez-It, Pringles, Pop-Tarts, Rice Krispies and Town House (prices may vary). And while they're not exclusive to one retailer, they are only hanging around for a limited time this season.

NFL WAG Brittany Mahomes Stuns With Figure-Hugging Mini Dress

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 8:00am

Brittany Mahomes brought a major fashion moment as the NFL WAG stole the spotlight during the Stagecoach country music festival.

The wife of Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes shared a glimpse of their child-free getaway on Instagram as they took part in the world’s largest annual country music festival, held in California.

While the Gen Z music fans kicked off the festival season earlier this month with Coachella, country fans, including the power couple, stepped into the spotlight at Stagecoach for a more Western-inspired celebration of music and style.

During the event, the 30-year-old switched her Chiefs inspired look as she turned heads with her stunning outfit that perfectly matched the festival’s laid-back charm and country-inspired aesthetic.

Patrick Mahomes #15 of the Kansas City Chiefs wife, Brittany Mahomes, celebrates after defeating the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime during Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium on February 11, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Patrick Mahomes #15 of the Kansas City Chiefs wife, Brittany Mahomes, celebrates after defeating the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime during Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium on February 11, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Embracing the sheer fashion trend, Brittany Mahomes put her own spin on the see-through dressing with a brown crochet figure-hugging mini dress, layered over a black two-piece swimsuit.

She styled the look with black knee-length cowboy boots and bold accessories such as multiple bangles and a large heart pendant necklace.

As for her glam, she kept it minimal and went for a peachy makeup look while wearing a tousled hairstyle.

Patrick Mahomes’ outfit, on the other hand, had a mix of casual and Western style. The quarterback opted for a brown checkered button-down top, perfectly matching his wife’s outfit and completed his festival look with light-washed jorts and white sneakers.

Of course, it would not be a country festival without completing the outfit with a beige cowboy hat.

“Inhaled lots of dirt, it was great,” she captioned her post.

The comment section was filled with reactions hyping the mom of three’s bold festival look.

“Cowgirl Brittany is the one. Breath-taking gorgeous!!!!” one wrote, praising her stunning festival style.

“Absolutely gorgeous, Queen!” a commenter said.

“You do know how to dress, Britt,” a follower echoed.

“The Ma’am of KC. Get it, girl!” another added.

The same goes for another who commented “KC’s King and Queen slayed with the fits!”

Before the “Country Coachella,” as fans called the Stagecoach festival, Brittany Mahomes posted some of her looks during the event.

In one Instagram post, she looked radiant in a white corset top paired with skimpy peplum shorts and beige cowboy boots, while finishing the look with a dark cowboy hat for a polished cowgirl-chic ensemble.

With her latest appearance, the NFL WAG once again solidified her reputation as one of the most closely watched style icons in the NFL circle.

Nancy Guthrie: ‘The Answer Is in Tucson,’ Says Former FBI Assistant Director

Mon, 04/27/2026 - 7:36am

Nancy Guthrie remains missing nearly three months after investigators say she was abducted from her Arizona home in the middle of the night. The whereabouts of the 84-year-old are still unknown as authorities continue vetting tips and working leads.

During a recent episode of his new podcast, The Fairfax Files, Michael Hershman spoke with former FBI Assistant Director John Miller about several high-profile cases, including Guthrie’s disappearance. When Hershman described the case as “unusual” and asked for Miller’s perspective, the former law enforcement official suggested that the person responsible for Guthrie's abduction is likely local to Tucson.

"I think the answer is—and I think that the Guthrie family believes this, too—the answer is right there. The answer is in Tucson," Miller began. "This was probably something hatched locally by someone who thought, 'Here's an individual who is relatively defenseless, lives alone, is vulnerable, unable to put up a lot of resistance. If we came and took her away, who is connected to
 someone with resources and money."

Miller went on to say that these factors strongly suggest the person was local, noting that people in the area are familiar with the Guthrie family and aware that Nancy lives alone. He added that in the vast majority of kidnappings, those responsible had some prior connection to the victim, such as a former employee, current employee’s partner, family member, or someone who had worked on the property and had access.

“I don’t think that this case is going to be vastly different, other than someone local who had enough contact around that house to assess what that would be like, and had some idea, some nightmarish dream about, ‘We’re gonna demand a lot of money, and we’re gonna do it through crypto, and we’re never gonna have to go to a ransom drop or pick up a package or show ourselves, we’re gonna take kidnapping into the digital age, and we’re gonna get a big payday,’” Miller added.

As of the time of this writing, authorities have not publicly named a suspect, and the investigation into Nancy's February 1 disappearance remains ongoing.
