Cops do more harm than good busting drug dealers, doctor tells Denver council

Yes, Dr. Sarah Axelrath of Colorado Coalition for the Homeless told the Denver City Council Monday. Axelrath, an addiction medicine specialist, said going after drug traffickers doesn’t make people stop using substances. In fact, she said it disrupts “an already potent and unpredictable drug supply.” Demand doesn’t go down after a bust. New players come to market who could be peddling an even more toxic product.

7 Woolworth's Lunch Counter Dishes From the 1950s and 1960s

F.W. Woolworth ran lunch counters inside its five-and-dime stores for decades, and by the mid-1950s those counters were a fixture of downtown shopping in cities and small towns across the country. You sat on a round spinning stool, ordered off a laminated card clipped above the counter, and got a full hot plate for right around fifty cents. The food came fast because the cooks had made it a hundred times that week, and the chain was still running close to two thousand of these counters as late as 1964.

Forever Paws Animal Shelter in Fall River, Massachusetts, says it can’t understand why a small senior dog named Mandy has drawn no interest, posting an emotional plea that begins, “How has NO ONE applied for this girl?! Not a single application, phone call, nothing. What? How? WHY?” The shelter describes Mandy as an affectionate “velcro pup” who “will glue herself to you and never leave,” adding that while she enjoys walks “at a brisk dawdle,” she’d “much rather be in your lap or curled up next to you, as long as she’s touching you somehow.”

7 Home Ec Recipes That 60s and 70s Teenagers Never Stopped Making

I use AI to help draft these articles. Every recipe and every fact in them is checked before publishing. Home economics class sat in the back corner of most American high schools through the 1960s and 1970s, and for a lot of teenagers it was the first time they cooked something from start to finish without anyone finishing it for them. The curriculum covered yeast bread, rolled cookies, simple casseroles, and basic pastry. Recipes came from a classroom cookbook or a mimeographed sheet from the teacher herself, who had often been running the same course for years.

Homemade Fry Bread Tacos Make Taco Night an Event

Warm fry bread replaces traditional shells beneath seasoned ground beef, lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar, sour cream, onions, and olives. Baking powder allows the simple dough to puff without yeast or a lengthy rise, producing pieces that are lightly crisp outside and soft and pillowy within. The warm bread supports the savory meat and cool toppings while adding a satisfying homemade character ordinary tortillas cannot duplicate. Every plate can be assembled differently, making the meal as interactive as a taco bar but considerably more memorable.

7 Supper Dishes 1970s Families Stretched to Last the Week

Through most of the 1970s, grocery prices climbed faster than they had in a generation. The sharpest jump came in 1973 and 1974, when food at home rose about 16 percent in one year and nearly 15 percent again in the next. A chuck roast went from being a Sunday treat to something you braised on Monday and ate cold in sandwiches through Wednesday. Canned tuna, dry beans, hot dogs, and whatever cut of meat was on sale became the backbone of the week's suppers, stretched with egg noodles, cornbread, or a can of cream soup.
