It's because many homeless people aren't addicted to just one drug, but two, according to the viewpoint's author, Benjamin A. Howell of Yale School of Medicine and colleagues.

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.

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!"

When I studied Anthropology in college, I learned that teeth have been indicators of economic status just about forever. Archaeologists look at the teeth in ancient skeletons and know who the rich were based on their tooth decay. During the Renaissance period, it became fashionable for women to blacken their teeth to look like they were better off than they were, because the royals and aristocrats, who could afford sugar and sweets, had more rotten and missing teeth than the poor.
