How do you know its fall? “When you pick apples and pumpkins too,” sings Apple Annie who is featured in a delightful 30 minute interactive program of songs, fingerplays and musical activities for young children and their families.  Join her on Zoom September 23th at 4pm. She suggests that if you have scarves, shakers, any kind of simple rhythm instruments at home, (pots, pans and wooden spoons are good too), keep them handy so you and your children can play along with her.

Today is the deadline House Speaker Nancy Pelosi set to reach a deal on a new stimulus package. Both sides reported some progress in an hour-long talk yesterday. Pelosi has said if a deal doesn't get done today, then there won't be enough time for it to be approved by both chambers and signed by President Trump until after the election.       The co-hosts of Fox and Friends pleaded with President Trump to change his debate strategy. It's not clear if he intends to listen. During today's show, Brian Kilmeade suggested the President not interrupt Democrat Joe Biden because if America hears what he has to say they may not like it. The President agreed, but said Biden tells so many lies he feels the need to correct the record.       Coronavirus cases are rising in more than half the states. Former F-D-A chief Doctor Scott Gottlieb said on CNBC the nation is about a week away from seeing a rapid acceleration. About a dozen states reported their highest seven-day average of cases on Sunday. The nation's seven-day average rose to 56-thousand. That's the highest it has been in 12 weeks.        Democrats are winning a big Supreme Court decision. The court will allow Pennsylvania to extend its deadline for counting mail-in ballots after the election. The Supreme Court was deadlocked 4-4 on a case to limit the amount of time the state could tally the ballots. That means ballots received up to November 6th will be counted, as long as they're postmarked by the November 3rd election date.       The Justice Department is expected to sue Google in a major antitrust case. The lawsuit will reportedly accuse the tech giant of stifling competition to maintain dominance in online search and ad markets. Some lawmakers have accused Google, Amazon, Apple and Facebook of amassing monopoly power in the cyber world.       A Scottish company is offering to pay someone 52-thousand dollars a year to eat cookies. Border Biscuits is in search of a "master biscuitier" to taste test its latest creations before they hit store shelves. The position includes 35 vacation days and it also comes with free cookies. The company calls it an incredible opportunity for someone to create delicious treats and be paid for it.
