A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

If approved by the Jacksonville City Council, a marker would be installed at Kings Road and Canal Street on Aug. 25, a day before the first anniversary of the shooting, when a white gunman took the lives of three Black people.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

July 29, 1889 — In view of the great number of swindlers moving about the country the farmers should deal with none but home dealers. Buy your farm implements and machinery from your local dealers. If you buy them from strangers they will want some instrument in writing, which, when pay day comes around you may find not to be exactly what you thought it was.

Farmers, be careful

South Dakota State

PIERRE, S.D. (MITCHELLNOW) Several agriculture stakeholders in South Dakota and across the nation are showing support for legislation introduced by U.S. Senators Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) which offers producers fairer market prices for livestock disaster assistance programs. The LIP Payment Improvement Act, which was introduced in March, would require the Farm Service Agency (FSA) to make quarterly updates to Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP) payment rates that reflect livestock market prices.

Those of us who are in the process of raising or have already raised toddlers on a farm understand that there is a unique set of rewards and risks.

This is Tim Hammerich of the Ag Information Network with your Farm of the Future Report. New agricultural inputs and products can have all of the data in the world, but the question always still remains: “How will I know this works for MY farm?” Nick Cizek says that’s why he founded FarmTest, a field trial design and execution service to measure the performance of fields right on your farm instead of relying on regional data.

But Will It Work on MY Farm?

Agreement Ensures Equal Opportunities for Female Athletes. The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) has announced a resolution with the Minneapolis Public School District to address compliance issues with Title IX in its high school athletics programs.

The Lens

Today, Louisiana takes a sharp turn in the wrong direction, to the tune of at least $1 billion wasted on prisons and punishment. That’s because today, August 1, our state’s most dangerous new laws go into effect. Louisiana is expanding execution methods, making it a crime to get too close to a police officer, and ending parole for everyone convicted of a crime committed today and any day from now on.

Louisiana is giving second chances to bad policy. It should be extending those second chances to our neighbors.

Texas State

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.
