Time Out

This summer has been a record-breaking one temperature-wise. We’ve all sweltered, turned up the A/C and set our alarms for early outdoor exercise before the sun gets too hot. And we’ve also indulged in a traditional summer treat to cheer up our moods and get something cold into our bodies, the quintessential happy food of summer—the ice cream cone. But with this joy comes risk: how can we keep the cone from melting? Sticky wrists and ice cream lost to the drips on the pavement are an omnipresent danger: it’s no exaggeration to say that this is a threat-level midnight situation.

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.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

An iconic geologic feature collapsed recently, the well-known Double Arch in Utah’s Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Made of 190 million-year-old fine-grain Navajo sandstone, the arch formed between the late Triassic and early Jurassic periods and collapsed on August 8, according to the National Park Service. Other names for the Double Arch include the Toilet Bowl (rude!), the Crescent Pool and the Hole in the Roof, because the double arch formed what appeared to be a ring.

Autumn is probably the coziest season, and just saying the name conjures up images of apple cider, hot cider doughnuts, crisp air, corn mazes, and, of course, fall foliage. Leaf-peepers from around the country flock to certain parts of the country, chasing the changing colors, but what about the towns that are pure fall, regardless of peak foliage time? Travelers over at the popular Reddit travel community r/travel are tackling the issue in a recent thread, with cities and towns in Vermont, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oregon and Michigan in the running for the most fall cities of all.

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.

A historic marker could be erected to honor the victims of the racist mass shooting at the Dollar General store in Jacksonville’s New Town neighborhood nearly a year ago. If approved by the Jacksonville City Council, a marker would be installed at Kings Road and Canal Street on Aug. 25, a day before the first anniversary of the shooting, when a white gunman took the lives of three Black people.

If you’re taking a vacation with young kids, flying is likely preferable to driving. Hours or days in a car with a fussy baby or a disagreeable toddler? That does not sound like a relaxing start (or end) to a vacation. Flying can be a hassle of course—delays, cancellations or overbooked flights—but if you choose the right seat when you’re flying with kids, you’ve got a much better chance of smooth sailing after takeoff.

Flying with kids? Experts say to book these seats.

The concept of a 'god-like' complex often refers to an individual's belief in their own superiority and infallibility, a sense of omnipotence and invulnerability. While this psychological trait can be found in people of all zodiac signs, certain astrological signs are more predisposed to such characteristics due to their inherent traits and ruling planets. Here, we explore the zodiac signs most likely to possess a 'god-like' complex and delve into the astrological reasons behind it.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”
