Did you know that more than 1.57 million Americans live without a toilet or tap at home?

In 1981, pop-music sensation Andy Gibb was at the top of the charts. The younger brother of Barry, Robin, and Maurice, a.k.a. The Bee Gees, commenced a tumultuous romance with actress Victoria Principle, who played Pam Ewing on Dallas, TV's then-Number 1 prime-time series. But after the relationship ended, Andy's life, already challenged by substance abuse, did as well. This is their tragic story.

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.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a dedicated foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-month-old puppy named Enzo who is already over 70lbs! The nonprofit dog rescue explains, "He is a Neapolitan Mastiff/Cane Corso mix (dna tested!) and could be over 150lbs when fully grown." Due to his breeds, his future adopter must have mastiff or working breed experience. "We are not first come, first “get” and will be accepting applications for Enzo for at least the next two weeks while he spends some time getting a head start on basic training with Rise&ShineK9. We will be looking to make the best furever match for this special boy!"

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.
