A holiday road trip made for Maxxinistas

The Maxxinista Express is more than a branded bus – it’s a moving love letter to shoppers who swap TJ Maxx hauls, compare “you won’t believe what I got this for” moments and share their finds on social media. The tour takes select fans on a full day of visits to three beloved TJ Maxx stores in each city, complete with surprises and themed challenges along the way.

After a hugely successful debut in Los Angeles, Build-A-Bear Workshop and Sanrio® are opening two new themed Workshops at American Dream in New Jersey and Mall of America in Minnesota in early 2026.

From LA hit to nationwide fan destination

The first Build-A-Bear & Hello Kitty and Friends Workshop quickly became a must-visit spot in Los Angeles, drawing collectors, families and longtime Sanrio fans who wanted more than just another store visit. It proved there’s something uniquely powerful about choosing a character, stuffing it yourself and sealing it with the signature Heart Ceremony in a world filled with bows, pastel colors and iconic faces.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 4, 2025 – When you or someone you love is looking for help with addiction, trauma, or mental health struggles, one question matters more than any other: does treatment actually work? The Meadows, a nationally recognized leader in trauma and addiction care based in Wickenburg, Arizona, has released its 2024 Annual Outcomes Report – and the data offers reassuring, real-world evidence that change is not only possible, but can last well beyond discharge.

Why outcomes data matters when you’re choosing treatment

In a world full of glossy brochures and emotional testimonials, independently collected outcomes data is a powerful way to cut through the noise. For this first report, The Meadows partnered with Vista Research Group, which tracks symptoms and life changes during treatment and then follows patients for up to a year afterward.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 2, 2025 – From adventure-ready GS models to six-cylinder touring flagships and M-badged track weapons, BMW Motorrad USA’s 2026 lineup is all about giving riders more choice, more comfort and an easier start to ownership.

A premium start: break-in service now included

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 2, 2025 – For drivers who love the feel of wind-in-your-hair motoring and classic roadster proportions, the BMW Z4 Final Edition is both a celebration and a goodbye. This very limited Z4 M40i sends off BMW’s two-seat roadster with bold design details, serious performance and a specification that feels carefully curated rather than simply optioned.

A farewell chapter for BMW’s open-top icon

Since its debut in 2002, the Z4 has carried forward BMW’s long tradition of two-seat, open-top sports cars, following legendary models like the BMW 328, 507 and Z8. With its long hood, short rear deck and low seating position, it has always been about that direct connection between driver, road and sky.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 2, 2025 – Standing just metres from a glowing lava lake, clipped into a rope 600 metres inside an active volcano, most people would be thinking about getting out as fast as possible – but for German adventure photographer and filmmaker Ulla Lohmann, that’s exactly where she feels most alive. For more than 25 years, she has chased eruptions, lava flows and extreme landscapes around the world, turning a childhood fascination with volcanoes into a dream career that blends travel, storytelling and science.

From childhood volcano fan to National Geographic storyteller

Ulla’s path into adventure photography started young. At eight years old, her father took her to Vesuvius, Campi Flegrei and Pompeii, where she fell in love with what she calls “the breath of the earth”. That mix of danger, history and raw power never left her.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 2, 2025 – Black and white photography has a magic of its own: once colour is stripped away, every line, shadow and highlight suddenly feels more emotional. With Canon’s professional printers and a few smart workflow habits, you can turn your favourite monochrome images into gallery-worthy prints right from home.

Why black and white printing feels different

Black and white is all about intention. Without colour, your viewer’s eye goes straight to contrast, texture and shape – so any mismatch between screen and paper is instantly obvious. That’s why photographer Helen Bartlett, who delivers monochrome prints to her clients, spent a day learning how to print on Canon’s imagePROGRAF PRO Series instead of relying only on a studio. The goal: to keep all the mood and subtle detail she’d carefully crafted on screen.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 2, 2025 – From tiny elopements on a windswept cliff to big, joy-filled receptions, wedding photography is all about turning one day into a lifetime of memories – and the lenses you choose decide how that story feels. Canon Ambassadors and award-winning photographers Félicia Sisco and Fabio Mirulla know this better than most, and their favourite Canon lenses show exactly how to build a kit that’s fast, reliable and beautifully flattering for couples.

Why the right wedding lens matters more than you think

Weddings move quickly: brides getting ready in small hotel rooms, guests squeezed into historic churches, couples racing into golden-hour light. You rarely get a second chance at a moment, so lenses need to focus fast, handle tricky light and give you creative control over background blur.
