Why do some Black male diabetics ditch their medication?. This morning, I was told of yet another African American male in Southwest Virginia who passed away after he stopped taking his Type 2 Diabetes medication. The first time I heard this story was several decades ago and the young man was in his 20s. So it's not just males in later life who are giving up.

Earlier this week, the United State Supreme Court heard arguments in the case of Grants Pass v Johnson . Grants Pass, a small city in Oregon with fewer than 40,000 residents has all but built its reputation on removing people experiencing homelessness, first to other locales and more recently to jail. Years ago, Grants Pass supplied bus tickets for those without addresses. According to testimony Monday, often the municipalities the individuals were removed to, just sent them back.

Bed bugs are parasitic insects that feed on blood typically at night. They get that blood from humans or animals. You might not see any during the day because of their being nocturnal. They can hide well like in a small crack or inside the seam of a mattress. An adult bed bug can range from 3/16 to 1/4 inch long. It's pretty repulsive.
