The USPS announced a new postage stamp honoring Betty White, set to come out next year. The stamps will feature a design by Dale Stephanos based on a 2010 photograph by Kwaku Alston. The announcement comes almost three years after White’s death in December of 2021. The stamp celebrates White’s seven-decade career, with roles on “The Golden Girls” and ”The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” and more. “This early glimpse into our 2025 stamp program demonstrates our commitment to providing a diverse range of subjects,” shares Lisa Bobb-Semple, USPS Stamp Services director.
A new piece of technology is serving up a food favorite across the country. PizzaForno is a pizza vending company that serves pies 24 hours a day, seven days a week through a vending machine-style piece of technology. With locations across the country, their first West Michigan location opened in August. The process is simple. You select the pizza you would like to order from six different options: pepperoni, cheese, meat lovers, barbecue chicken, veggie and a breakfast pizza. The pizzas range from $10 to $13. Once you place your order at the machine, the pizza is ready within four minutes. It comes out of the machine like your standard vending machine.
