How often do you get a new smartphone?
An expert says you should consider getting a new phone when your current phone is affecting your day-to-day life on a regular basis. He says that if you’re someone who uses your phone a lot every day, including for work, then having an old, slow phone with a cracked screen is not ideal.
If you find yourself stressing over your phone, it might be time to get a new one!
Do you get a new phone regularly? As someone who has a 5-year-old phone, I might need to upgrade soon…

Daily WTF – Orange juice prices are going through the roof — forcing some makers to consider alternative fruits
Your orange juice might no longer be ORANGE juice. We’re not talking about the colour, either. With orange prices going through the roof, orange juice makers are looking for alternatives to produce their popular drink. The label might say orange, it might even show an orange, but reports say these makers are switching over to pears, apples, and grapes to help make their products. There might still be some orange in there, but the ratio is getting altered as the days and weeks and months go by. So, if you’re an avid orange juice drinker, you might want to check the ingredients… It could be more pear juice than anything else.
Daily Did You Know – The history behind Milton’s Banks Crescent and Etheridge Avenue
It’s Street Name Monday! Every week, we speak with Milton Historical Society President John Challinor about the origins of local street names.

Here’s how to stay tick-free this summer
It might be June, and it might be warm outside, but that doesn’t mean you can just run through fields of green unprompted. The tall grass on a rolling hill might seem tempting, but that’s just what the TICKS want you to think. Orkin Canada is warning residents of the dangers of ticks. They’ve provided a list of tips, including dressing appropriately, sticking to designated paths in wooded areas, and performing routine tick checks.
This Milton road will close for construction once again
It wouldn’t be summertime in Milton without a little road construction. Appleby Line will once again be getting some work done. While this glow-up is happening, the road is expected to be closed between Derry Road and Rattlesnake Conservation Area. It should reopen come July. Detour routes will be available.
At 98, Dick Van Dyke Is Still Going Strong And Raring To Take A One-Man Show On The Road
Believe it or not, Dick Van Dyke is not only alive, but he’s thriving! The man is 98-years-old, and he still has the performer’s itch. Van Dyke is looking to launch a one-man show, and he wants to take it on the road. He wants to go the route of Cary Grant and Gregory Peck, saying he thinks it’d be a fun thing to do. I mean hey, he can still do the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang song on the spot, so I’m sure he’s got lots of material to work with up there in that big brain of his… Hopefully he gets to put this show on, and hopefully he comes north of the border!
GOOD NEWS – Louisiana graduate finishes high school as valedictorian while being homeless
Life isn’t always fair, and that certainly didn’t stop 19-year-old Elijah Hogan.

Hogan’s been living in a homeless shelter as he worked to get his high school diploma. He plans to go to University this fall to study graphic design, and will be getting a full ride scholarship… And that’s some good news!

‘Sleep divorce’ is on the rise — a CPAP machine could save your marriage
How was your sleep last night? Did your partner’s snoring keep you up all night? Are you at your wit’s end when it comes to this dang chainsaw snoring? Well, you’re not alone. Sleep divorce is on the rise, according to studies. This is where couples decide they can no longer sleep in the same bed as their partner, often due to issues such as snoring. Experts say, you don’t need to call it quits just like that! They say getting your partner a CPAP machine, usually reserved for sleep apnea, could be the answer you’re looking for. Reports say it’s even saving marriages as users are able to sleep through the night without snoring, and thus, their partner can finally get some shuteye… Not to mention that if you have sleep apnea, the CPAP machine could save your life! It’s a win-win, really…
