A rare 1978 Star Wars Jawa figure by Palitoy, considered the most coveted among Star Wars collectors, was discovered in a loft in the UK.

The owner, who served as the Art Director for Marvel UK in the late 1970s, unearthed the figure while unpacking film memorabilia received from PALITOY during the promotion of the Star Wars line in Marvel’s comics.

This Jawa figure is particularly special as it still features the original vinyl cape, a rare detail that adds to its desirability. After confirming its authenticity through Excalibur Auctions, it was revealed to be one of the rarest carded Star Wars figures, with only 10-15 examples known to exist.

Star Wars fans will have the chance to bid on this unique piece of toy history in Excalibur Auctions Diecast & Vintage Toys and Model Railway Collectors Sale on January 27, 2024, with an estimated value of £10,000-£15,000.

Welcoming the New Year brings a chance to weave some positive vibes into your family’s routine, and Dr. Harvey Karp, the brain behind The Happiest Baby on the Block and SNOO, has some down-to-earth suggestions.

First, keep the family’s health in check with timely vaccinations, including the new RSV shot for the little ones.

Dr. Karp’s advice? Dive into reading together—more stories mean more language skills and family bonds. Embrace the great outdoors daily for a natural mood boost, and it even helps everyone sleep better at night. Prioritize quality rest with dim lights, white noise, and a consistent bedtime routine.

Sharing meals isn’t just about food; it’s a recipe for stronger bonds and healthier choices.

For some family TLC, Dr. Karp suggests simple deep-breathing exercises, no fancy gadgets needed—just your breath and a moment of calm. Let’s keep it real this New Year and make those family resolutions stick!

Not everyone believes in psychic mediums. I get that.

Amber Hankins here, and in my job though, I interview people from all walks of life. Just recently? I interviewed Psychic Medium Vincent Genna, as part of a segment for Life. Style. Live! In fact, I interviewed him twice.

On this podcast episode, you’ll see some “behind-the-scenes” emotional moments from an apparent “connection” Vincent had with two of my late grandmas. And there’s a backstory to all of this as well.

I’ll link that “unscripted” blog post below.

In the meantime, enjoy this never-before-heard interaction, and why such a “connection” brought me to tears.

Indiana teen Madden Moore is the co-president of Chicken-Giving. Moore first co-founded the organization in 2021. Moore got his wallet stolen, posted it on Facebook, and people reached out and donated money for him to replace it. Moore received more money than he had to begin with, so he decided to give back to the community.

Moore’s stepdad helped the teen buy cooked chickens with the leftover money, and they headed to downtown Muncie streets to hand them out to the homeless. Just last year, Moore headed back to Facebook and made a post asking for donations to have enough for 50 cooked chickens and ended up making enough to buy 400!

Moore has fed over 700 people with the help of donations and social media.

This year, Moore plans to giveaway 1,000 meals to people in need and is branching out to Kokomo, Marion, New Castle, Anderson, Noblesville and Muncie.

Moore’s goal is for more teens like him to grow a helping heart to help others.

Donations to Moore’s Chicken-Giving organization can be made through Venmo at chickengiving.
