Cats of Kansas City

Many people have lost faith in the news and question truth from all comers. The idea of a universal truth, outside of the sky being blue and that one plus one equals two, seems to be more and more elusive. One thing that everyone can agree on, however, is that cats are the world's greatest pets. Dogs are fine, sure, but they aren't cats. Fish are kind of fun to look at...for like five minutes. Cats though? No fact check needed. They're the best.

After a Monday of changeable sky conditions and warmer temperatures we have a Tuesday that probably goes down as the best weather day of the week so take advantage of that. We are far enough away from both last night's weather system that brought showers and thunderstorms to the Mid Atlantic. That has now weakened and passed to the east. The next weather system and cold front will be impacting the Ohio Valley today so we should be in a good spot. We expect no worse than partly sunny skies today. High temperatures will reach the mid 70s to some lower 80s. Of course look for cooler conditions along south and east facing shorelines.

The Scituate Animal Shelter of Massachusetts recently introduced Chewbacca, nicknamed Chewy, who they describe as a funny fella who loves everyone. “This adorable mutt is built like an oversized Shih Tzu and weighs 25 lbs. Since he was found as a stray and never claimed, we don't know much about his past.” Chewy has a personality as unique as his looks. "He is overly friendly with all, dogs included. He can come on a bit strong but in the kindest way. He wants everyone to be his friend!" states the Scituate Animal Shelter of Massachusetts, who is currently caring for Chewy until he finds his forever home.

Twenty-two years ago, Robert Ray Courtney (Inmate Register #14636-045) was convicted of diluting chemotherapy drugs for more than 4,000 patients. It's been recently reported he will be released from prison this summer to a halfway house. Victims and families of victims are most likely disappointed and furious and understandably so.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

In my opinion, being the first taquero to unleash a new regional style of burrito into Southern California’s expansive taco universe is almost worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize, especially when the results are as delicious as they are at Los De Juárez Burritos in Anaheim.

JACKSON HOLE—A scrunched, humbled look broke out on Tim Mangold’s face as he gripped the little, lone antler he carried out of the western Wyoming mountains on Wednesday. The 59-year-old affable Darby, Montana man — a hunting outfitter, woodworker and father of seven — had had quite the day.

The Denver City Council postponed Monday voting on an $8 million contract with the Salvation Army to operate the Tamarac Family Shelter. The former hotel, also known as The Connection Center, is a one-stop shop for families seeking shelter, according to a presentation by staff to the City Council. There is a waiting list of 99 families seeking shelter, according to the presentation. The contract would allow the shelter to fill the 200-room hotel to capacity, according to city staff. Currently, 136 rooms are full, they said. The contract would provide shelter for 64 of the waiting list families, according to staff.

In recent years, many monuments have been vandalized, mocked, and in need of protection due to civil unrest about their meaning and representation. There once was a tall Civil War Monument in the front entry of the Colorado State Capitol building. What happened to that monument and why was it removed?
