It's been eight years since beloved former child star and Oscar-winning actress Patty Duke died from sepsis (a ruptured intestine) at only 69 in 2016. She was also the recipient of two Golden Globes, three Emmys, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In the 1960s, she was the star of her own TV sitcom. In the mid-1980s, she served as President of the Screen Actors Guild. Through it all, she was married four times (including once to actor John Austin), had three sons, and never stopped acting. This is her tragic yet triumphant story.

An opinion piece appearing in the Journal of the American Medical Association, or JAMA this week illustrates why the drug problem among people experiencing homelessness in Denver may be so severe. It's because many homeless people aren't addicted to just one drug, but two, according to the viewpoint's author, Benjamin A. Howell of Yale School of Medicine and colleagues.

A little technology and a lot of imagination can go quite a long way. With an uncanny knack for bending and warping sounds slightly out of phase with the way they sound in the real world, Jon Hassell had a way of turning the trumpet (or indeed any piece of the soundscape) into something nobody had ever heard of on Earth.

I can still remember the impression that Ralph Bowen made on a young jazz enthusiast trying to break into radio and be part of the hip jazz crowd. I had decided to get involved with the programming end of a local non-profit arts support organization and on a letter perfect July evening our committee had lined up a double bill that included Kevin Eubanks and the mid '80s collective Out Of The Blue. An hour or so before OTB was set to open the evening's festivities I was helping out backstage when the guys from the band began to gather. Bowen had found a private little spot in some corner and was blowing some of the gutsiest tenor saxophone that I can recall hearing up to that point. It struck a chord and in addition to eventually picking up all of the OTB albums that Blue Note released, I made a point of keeping and eye and ear open for anything else that Bowen might be involved in.

Some zodiac signs are even known for potentially getting back with their exes more than others. Let's see which 4 are the most likely and dive in why.

What if a tree fell in the woods, and no-one heard? More to the point, what if, for one weekend, four Guys With Ties wrote the book about how play jazz that balances drive with subtlety, improvisational joy with compositional intelligence, self-awareness with musical wit—and what if the record was released on the You'll Never Hear About It label? Well, that happened this time. For better and for worse, decades later this disc still is news.

They're shaped like a potato and tend to bake in hot weather, biologists say. That's why you will find cheeky little pikas in Colorado's mountains. But climate change could cause these critters' numbers to dwindle, according to wildlife experts. Like polar bears, Pikas may predict warmer temperatures, scientists say.
