5 Things to Know for a Better Tuesday

We here at Twinsburg Patch sincerely hope you had long, relaxing holiday weekend full of family, fun, and of course, fireworks.

But now it's back to the old grind. The good news, at least, is that it's a short week, and will be over before you know it. So let's all have a terrific Tuesday with these five nuggets of knowledge:

1. Get help with your next great American novel. Check out the tonight at the at 7 p.m.

2. Did you know ... The bikini was introduced on this day in 1946? Yes, the bathing suit you know and love premiered in Paris as the new fashion in swimwear. Look it up (or don't).

3. Can't get enough fireworks? with some great Independence Day action.

4. Like writing? We are still looking for bloggers to grace our site with their thoughts and wisdom. Interested? Contact editor Mitch Cooper and let us know.

5. Need some extra juice today? Here are some words from Ella Wheeler Cox for motivation: "Always continue the climb. It is possible for you to do whatever you choose, if you first get to know who you are and are willing to work with a power that is greater than ourselves to do it."
