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.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

That's one big bear.

To be specific, it's grizzly bear 791, and it lives in non other than Yellowstone National Park. The Interagency Grizzly Bear Study Team (IGBST) in Yellowstone does their best to capture and radio-collar a lot of the bear population within the national park in order to track them, and this one in particular is numbered 791.

And is estimated to be over 600 pounds, which easily makes it one of the largest bears in the entire park.

Its sheer size - along with its massive, sharp claws - helps to explain why it was stirring up so much dust...

“The first video really highlights the size difference between wolves and coyotes,” stated Taylor Rabe of the Yellowstone Wolf Project, in reference to her Instagram slide post featuring wolf 1497F. “This yearling wolf was not being tolerated by this coyote family in the valley and they made it well known.
