Unfortunately, in recent weeks I've written about distribution and operation centers in Florida closing down and laying off employees - such as United Natural Foods, Inc. and Walgreens to name a few. And now another operations center - GSP - will close and permanently lay off nearly one hundred employees.

After writing about Florida's restaurants for some time, I've come to believe that, although Floridians want excellent food for a reasonable price, they're not exactly picky about where that food comes from.

If you're from the Ozarks region of Missouri, you might have heard people talk about the old type of medicinal cure known as the madstone. It's hard to tell if it's true or false without personal experience, or at least whether someone in a family's long history line was treated with one of these stones.

Aurora, CO

The Aurora City Council forged ahead Monday on a new “tough love” approach to homelessness that sentences urban campers to addiction and mental health treatment. The council decided at its study session to advance to a regular meeting an ordinance creating a new court for homeless campers. Ordinance sponsor Steve Sundberg said the court is not meant to be punitive. Offenders who successfully complete a year’s probation and their treatment plan would have the violation removed from their record, he said.

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.
