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.

When you hear the name Beyoncé many things come to mind musician, actress, humanitarian, and mother. As she has made a huge impact on the world of country music with her release of “Cowboy Carter” the superstar is not resting. She now has joined her husband in the world of spirits aka liquor a space that is only made up of less than 1% people of color. And in terms of women, that number isn’t even close to that. So it makes sense that a trendsetter and mover and shaker such as Beyoncé is stepping into the spotlight. The name has classic meaning as her son is named Sir and Davis was the first name of her great-grandfather.

This year’s area of low oxygen in the Gulf of Mexico is larger than average, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced on Thursday. The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week. Within NOAA’s 38 years of measuring the dead zone, this year’s assessment marks the 12th-largest area of low to no oxygen, which can kill fish and marine life.

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.
