Here, Edmunds rounds up 10 models with third-row seating and enough space for your family. The SUVs are divided into...

Midyear housing market report: What property records reveal about 2026 The first half of 2026 was not the barnburner for home sellers that many real estate experts expected, but the market started picking up in March and April. After falling for a few months, mortgage rates remain in the mid-six-percent range as buyers monitor inflation and Federal Reserve actions. It’s mostly fair to call 2026 a mixed bag for real estate investors, and a lot is happening under the hood that warrants a...

Rats, insects and mold: How bad food leaves prisoners hungry and sick The food on the trays doesn’t even look like food. In photos smuggled out of Georgia’s prisons, what passes for a meal is either grossly inadequate for a grown man, unrecognizable sludge, or both. “There's no possible way you could survive off what they feed you,” said Bailey, who is currently incarcerated in Georgia and asked The Marshall Project to withhold his full name for fear of retaliation from staff.

What are the different types of student loans you can use to pay for college? Summer means many high school seniors and their parents are prepping for life’s next big stage — college.

This makes nutrient-rich food choices more important than ever, especially given the 587% spike in GLP-1 prescriptions in recent years among people...
