Actor Bob Denver, who passed away in 2005, will forever be remembered for his leading role on the classic 1960s sitcom Gilligan’s Island. Denver also played another famous TV character: the beatnik-type Maynard G. Krebs on The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis.

In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

I love wearing jeans, but I hate shopping for them. You never know exactly how each pair is going to fit until you try them on. It can be frustrating to be one size with one brand and an entirely different size with another. Generally, jeans have two important sizing factors to note: waist and inseam.

There are some items that give any outfit that automatic cool factor. You know, those pieces that just scream effortless It-girl. Enter the classic cargo. Once considered purely utilitarian, cargo pants have gone from the battlefield to the runway. Now, if you’re thinking, “Hmmm, I’m not really trying to channel Kim Possible,” we hear you. But we beg to differ.

10 Stylish Ways to Wear Green Cargo Pants

Summer may be winding down, but the warm weather certainly isn’t, and for many of us, we're still in seasonal dress restock mode. But while it’s still warm out, it’s tough to justify buying clothes that are only going to work for the next month or so. That’s why I’m personally such a fan of transitional dressing and finding clothes that work for late summer but can be worn into the fall. With the right dress, you can add a sweater, closed-toe shoes or a light scarf to keep warm on those cool end-of-summer evenings.

With the exception of bears, there is perhaps no creature that gets more press when it attacks humans than sharks. We have weeks dedicated to them on television, movie franchises where each sequel is worse than the last, and countless social media videos giving sharks more attention than they probably ever wanted. For beachgoers in Hawaii, it's always at the back of their mind, even if shark attacks are ultimately rare. But it may be a little more in mind in Maui, where there are more attacks than anywhere else in Hawaii.

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