A 12-year-old Texas cheerleader died Monday, four days after she suffered mysterious “life-threatening” injuries that her parents tried to treat with smoothies and vitamins, authorities announced Wednesday. 

Jourdanton Junior High School student Miranda Sipps died in the hospital Monday night after her mother finally called for help when the preteen went into respiratory distress, the Atascosa County Sheriff’s Office said.

The girl’s mother, Denise Balbaneda, and stepfather, Gerald Gonzalez, 40, were arrested for failing to seek medical help sooner for the girl during the four days while she was “mentally and physically incapacitated and non-responsive,” the sheriff said.

The natural structure, also known as the Toilet Bowl or the Hole in the Roof, had stood for approximately 190 million years.

One day in March 2017, Mitch McKay and his wife, Suzanne, took a walk on the sand near Imperial Beach, a small surf town south of San Diego where they’d raised their children. Suzanne liked to collect sea glass, and they often brought a spare grocery bag to pick up any trash they found amid the seaweed and driftwood. “It was our ritual,” Mitch said. Back home, Suzanne started to suffer from splitting headaches that seemed to emanate from the back of her neck, near the base of her skull. The headaches soon got bad enough that she went to...

One of Utah’s most well-known geological features has collapsed. The Double Arch, which has also been known as the “Toilet Bowl,” “Crescent Pool,” and the “Hole in the Roof,” was formed within 190-million-year-old Navajo sandstone by rain and wind erosion, the National Park Service (NPS) explained.
The cause of the collapse is currently unclear, though the NPS believes it was likely caused by wind and rain erosion, which has caused fragments of the stone to chip and break off—a phenomenon we call spalling. Unfortunately, these geological features can have very limited life spans, depending on the severity of the weather in...

It doesn’t take much for a restaurant to fail its health inspection. The quantity of problems found during an inspection doesn’t necessarily lead to a failing grade. While restaurants with well over a dozen issues can receive a low score, a “Fail” grade typically doesn’t come about unless there is a very specific problem that must be corrected within a short period of time. If the issue is not fixed during the set timeframe, the low grade turns into a fail grade. For one chicken wing restaurant here in Tucson, an initial visit resulted in only four violations, but it was the poor performance during a return visit that ultimately resulted in the eatery receiving its failing grade.

Diego Piña Lopez, then the executive director of one of the state’s largest shelter operators, was among the leading voices warning in local and national media about the dire local consequences of the budget fight in Washington.“I think that’s going to lead to a lot of chaos, and a lot more cost across the board for folks to...
