A Stanley cup holder that sticks to your fridge (or another metal surface) with magnets to keep your tumblers organized and at arm's reach for easy fill-ups — without sacrificing precious cabinet or counter space. Why didn't I think of that?! Anua's azelaic acid serum — don't let the "acid" in the name fool you; it's not a super harsh exfoliant but rather a skin soother that can (gently!) clarify and help reduce redness, diminish blemishes, *and* reduce the appearance of post-acne marks and discoloration. And this formulation also includes hyaluronic acid, aloe, and cica for hydration and further soothing. Old Navy's Vintage tee — if you're in the market for the perfect t-shirt, you can't go wrong with it. It has a relaxed fit, a not-too-long-but-not-too-short hip length that can be tucked or worn out, and a nonsaggy crew neckline. *And* it's made of a thick (aka not sheer) but breathable 100% cotton! What more is there to ask for? Oh yeah, it's under $ usually discounted so you can stock up on several. A pen case, but not just any pen case.

Dumpling Daughter's Spicy Sweet Soy sauce — as the name suggests, it packs just the right punch of sweet (brown sugar!), savory (soy!), and spicy (red peppers and spices!), whether you use it for dipping, drizzling, marinading, or stir frying. Yeah, it's amazing on dumplings and wontons, but consider the possibilities: zhuzhing up a bowl of ramen, whisking into a salad (gasp) spicing up a bowl of ice cream?

Remains of Ohio soldier, who died as WWII POW, found and being brought home
**Related Video Above: Remains of Cleveland WWII Airman was brought home after 80 years last year ELMORE, Ohio (WJW) — A northern Ohio man who died as a prisoner of war while fighting in WWII is finally being laid to rest in his hometown this summer, the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) said Friday. Remains of Soldier killed in WWII return to Freeport, Ohio and interred with full military honors U.S. Army Sgt. Howard Hasselkus, who was 24 years old at the time of his death, was reportedly accounted for in September 2024 but it was only recently that his family received a 'full briefing' from the government agency. Now his story is being released to the public. When Japanese forces invaded the Philippines in late 1941, Hasselkus was fighting with the 192nd Tank Battalion. By May of 1942, thousands of U.S. and Filipino military members were taken as prisoners of war following the surrender of Bataan, with Hasselkus being one of them. Hasselkus died Nov. 22, 1942, and was buried at Cabanatuan Camp Cemetery in a common grave, according to camp records, the DPAA said. The American Graves Registration Service diligently worked to identify soldiers remains following the war, but Hasselkus was never found. 4 finally going home after WWII bomber crash left 11 dead and 'non-recoverable' Then in 2018, as part of the Cabanatuan Project, DPAA scientists began looking into the remains still unidentified. Using anthropological, dental and DNA analysis, the team was able to find Hasselkus. 'Today, Hasselkus is memorialized on the Walls of the Missing at the Manila American Cemetery and Memorial in the Philippines,' the agency said in a statement. 'A rosette will be placed next to his name to indicate he has been accounted for.' Hasselkus is being buried in Elmore, Ohio, in August. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
