Dial 911 if you see an amimal locked in a hot vehicle. News10 recently warned Virginians that summer is coming, and they should be mindful of leaving animals in hot vehicles. In 2015, Virginia passed House Bill 2082, which allowed individuals to break into vehicles if a child was inside and in danger because of extreme heat, but only if they called 911 first.

The Denver City Council awarded The Salvation Army another $8 million contract Monday to run the Tamarac Family Shelter for people experiencing homelessness. Council members Shontel Lewis and Flor Alvidrez voted against the contract. Lewis said while the Salvation Army has made some “long overdue” promises, nothing in the contract holds them accountable to data-driven metrics. “We can’t just throw money around to solve a problem.” She added the city needs to “bake into every contract” data expectations that will be used to hold the agency accountable. She said outcomes ought to be evaluated by using “accurate, easy to understand information.”

With all the crazy news we hear these days, it is understandable that people might feel helpless to make a difference. It's true that you might not be able to cure the ills of the world, but you can, quite easily in fact, make a huge, positive difference in the life of a cat. Best of all--you reap the rewards too.

Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips is no longer in Missouri but it still has two free-standing locations in Ohio. It once was a large chain across the country. I still recall the one off of 71 Highway in Kansas City, Missouri that used to be behind the once-popular Truman Corners Shopping Center. It was my mother's go-to spot for fish & chips. That was a long time ago.

Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.
