By Grant Hawkins, Texas A&M University College of Arts and Sciences  The Alamo, a symbol of Texas’ rich history, is home to many artifacts from its storied past. Among these is a unique battle cannon that recently became the focus of an intense preservation effort led by experts from the Department of Anthropology at Texas A&M University.

Kathie Lee Gifford has had a quite challenging life dealing with certain health issues despite her career success. The singer previously struggled with chronic arthritis, which caused her pains and restricted her ability to move freely. To deal with the pain and mobility issue, the 70-year-old opted for hip replacement surgery in 2021, which improved her quality of life, and she has since been recovering from her surgery.
