The Department of Veterans Affairs can now cover up to 10 months of rent, pay utility bills, buy groceries and arrange transportation for eligible homeless veterans under a new policy that took effect July 29.

Assistance can include restaurant meals, groceries, hotel stays, moving expenses, clothing, tents, ride-share trips and smartphones with service plans. The policy remains in effect through…

Authorities have discovered that the remains of a murder victim, whose bones and remains were found in southwestern Oregon more than 50 years ago, belonged to a WWII veteran.

Hurdling is defined as a combination of more than one food preservation technique. The idea is to create a series of barriers for microorganisms like bacteria and fungus. These barriers act as hurdles for the microorganisms so it’s harder for them to make it into the food we eat. If the proper amount of hurdles are used, any microorganisms are overwhelmed and ultimately die so the food lasts longer. What is a Microorganism? In a food context, microorganisms are bacteria or various forms of fungus that can thrive and grow on food. The result leads to any number of diseases…
Anti-hunting groups don’t make a lot of sense to me. I get people wanting harvested animals killed humanely and not left to rot in the woods. I want that, for crying out loud, and that’s true of every hunter I know. Yet hunters are also conservationists. Not only do they help thin herds so there’s less competition for limited resources among animals like deer, but hunting license fees help fund government efforts to protect these animals.These groups don’t see it that way, which I guess is fine. Fortunately for us, though, it seems the courts…

For a few humpback whales, the entire world is their oyster. New research published Wednesday reveals that two of these whales have essentially traded one part of the ocean for another one — on the other side of the planet. It was already known that some of these whales will sometimes shift their breeding and mating grounds for others thousands of miles away. But the whales documented in today’s study traded their preferred ocean home after living in their previous zone for many years. One of them moved from Australia to waters near Brazil, while the other immigrated in the…
In a recent interview with NPR, Brady head Kris Brown declared her opposition to the proposed repeal of the Biden-era’s ATF rule on pistol-stabilizing braces that created a presumption that any brace-equipped pistol was a short-barreled rifle that needed to be registered and taxed under the National Firearms Act. “There’s no public safety argument that can possibly be made for why you would want to eliminate the regulation of stabilizing braces,” Brown stated. “Because literally, if you buy that product and put it on a pistol, it becomes a short-barreled rifle. And the purpose of…
