When your temper flares are you a raging bull? A vicious Virgo or a conniving Capricorn? Emotions are complex states that involve physiological, behavioral, and cognitive changes. They influence how we perceive the world around us, how we interact with others, and how we make decisions. However, our emotions are not the only factor that influences our behavior. Astrology can be a telling factor as well.

In this week’s installment of Homeless Hotel Diary, broken glass again leads the lineup. Someone smashed a window in the lobby of Fusion Studios, the Colorado Coalition for the homeless property where I live and pay a third of my income for rent. This same person shattered the door to the case manager’s office and threw rocks through the windshield and side windows of the community van. Multiple residents told me who did the damage – the same person allegedly committed all three crimes – and last I knew that person still was at large. I could not get any official reports from Coalition staff. They were not available to speak with me Friday.

This year’s area of low oxygen in the Gulf of Mexico is larger than average, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced on Thursday. The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week. Within NOAA’s 38 years of measuring the dead zone, this year’s assessment marks the 12th-largest area of low to no oxygen, which can kill fish and marine life.

Unfortunately, the extra pounds have inflated the costs of obesity-related medical treatment to approximately $190.2 billion a year and annual productivity losses due to work absenteeism to around $4.3 billion.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law.

When I learned the brown tarantula is also native to Missouri, I gasped, and when I say I'm not too fond of spiders of any genus is an understatement. It's psychological. They have too many legs.

Rutgers and UMass faced off in women’s college soccer action on Sunday, and neither held back any punches. That analogy became quite literal at one point as the game devolved into utter chaos. More resembling a wrestling match, players from each side tussled after a Scarlet Knights’ defender’s slide tackle on a Minutewomen ball carrier. […]

Don Hall is an avid snowmobiler, but instead of heading for the hills each winter in search of deep powder, he takes an older snowmachine to lower elevations nearer the snow line. There’s a reason the Riverton resident prefers the lower zones despite the rocks, fences and sage most riders avoid: That’s where the coyotes are.

Wyoming allows snowmobilers to run down wildlife. Despite global outrage, it may stay legal.

The 48th US Open Pool Championship will return to the Harrah’s Resort in Atlantic City from August 18–23, 2025. “We are honored to be hosting the US Open Pool Tournament again for the fifth consecutive year,” said Dan Gallagher, director of sports sales for the Atlantic City Sports Commission. “Our seaside destination could not be better positioned to host this glorious event in our world-class venues along with ample experiences for athletes and spectators.”

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue organization in Massachusetts, has recently introduced a dog named Blazer who is looking for his forever home. According to the nonprofit rescue organization, Blazer has had quite a journey. “Blazer was one of 7 dogs ‘saved’ by another rescue down in Texas and when he was just a young puppy. Then, he was abandoned by this ‘rescue’ and left in a boarding kennel for 9 months. He is now a little over a year old, and 55lbs.” Thanks to Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. for stepping in to help Blazer, he is now on the path to finding a family to love him.
