Lucy Lawless is well aware of the "long shadow" her iconic role in "Xena: Warrior Princess" has cast over her career. Her latest, the Acorn TV series "My Life is Murder," is one example of a project Lawless fought to bring to life. On why getting cast as Xena was 'a great big cosmic joke'Lucy Lawless as Xena in "Xena: Warrior Princess." I don't think that would even be particularly mark-worthy these days, would it? But "Parks and Rec" has people who don't know what "Xena" is, but they do know "Parks and Rec" or "Curb Your Enthusiasm" or something.

Our first date involved piling into my station wagon that had a Phillies magnet covering the broken gas port cover.

Though we're in a poly vee relationship, my wife chooses not to pursue other partners. I use dating apps, and the first line of every dating profile is, "I am married and ethically non-monogamous (poly vee)." I tell my wife when I'm going out and where I'm going for safety.

As a single mom, a big reason I became a teacher was so that I would be on the same schedule as my son. I wanted to spend as much time with my son as possible, but I was also on a budget. After the monthly bills, I didn't have a lot of money left over for extracurriculars or expensive trips during our summer breaks.

☆ Why Europe’s youth are flirting with the far-right
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-25 | by ( Christian Edwards | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +11 min

In this month’s European Parliament elections, far-right parties performed predictably well – but especially, and unexpectedly, among young people. Far-right parties enjoyed a similar uptick in support in the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Austria, and continued to do well in Italy. Gonzalo Fuentes/ReutersBut young voters appear less concerned by these roots, says Simon Schnetzer, author of a recent survey of Germany’s youth. But the burst in support for far-right parties could spell a darker trend. This success of far-right parties should be a warning to Europe’s mainstream.

My husband and I each speak our native languages to the kids, and they learn German from day care and school. It's fantastic that they're growing up with three languages, but sometimes having multiple languages can present some quandaries when it comes to finding baby names. One classic example is that certain letters sound different in various languages, such as the letter "j," which makes a "y" sound in languages like Spanish and German but a "djuh" sound in English. As a result, names like Jonas or Juliana may not sound quite the same in different languages. You can also test out names in various languages if you're unsure how they'll be received by talking directly to native speakers.
