THE EDITION

The stories & notices

Independently worded, source-linked accounts. Fifteen source-dated articles include eleven distinct Mountain House items, three regional education, commute or weekend items, and one current AI-policy brief. Two stories are material, evidenced follow-ups: tonight's Mountain House High football listing and the final scheduled night in Caltrans' published closure window. A previously held travel workshop is published only after its detailed City page resolved the date. All 16 Pexels photographs are newly downloaded, licensed contextual images visually inspected for subject relevance; none repeats a prior edition. No paid AI, translation, speech, advertising or other metered provider was called.
