Giving patients just a few day’s notice, Untamed Herbs, Payson’s medical and recreational marijuana dispensary, closed Sunday. Dispensary officials said it is just a temporary closure and that they hope to reopen the dispensary, at 200 N. Tonto St., in three months. In a press release, officials said it was part of an expansion program. The owners reportedly moved their current license to another location. In Arizona, once a dispensary owner holds a license, they can move it to anothe...

Mr. Potato Head is back in the news — wait, was Mr. Potato Head ever previously in the news? I seem to remember unsubstantiated reports of a harassment suit from Barbie’s lawyers back in the 1990s, but it appears that matter was settled out of court and never discussed publicly again. According to media outlets that cover fake outrage and potato-related matters, including The New York Times, toymaker Hasbro initially announced in February it was dropping “Mr.” from the brand...

CORRECTION: This story has been changed to reflect the correct address for the All Vets Center in Mason City. It is not easily put into words how the service of David Gilbert -- and hundreds of other men like him across the country  -- makes folks feel. My father died on March 2, 2004, arguably one of the worst days of my life. One of the few things that brought me solace during his funeral was the presence of the local VFW Honor Guard. Seeing those men stand for my father, looking somber an...

Fredericksburg officials invited state lawmakers and representatives from CSX Transportation to Railroad Avenue in the Mayfield neighborhood Friday afternoon. The aim was to provide a visual of how closely the tanker cars that CSX uses to transport propane to a customer in Caroline County sits to the homes of Mayfield residents. But there was just one problem: For one of the few times in the past two months, there were no tanker cars in the railyard. Still, Fredericksburg City Manager Tim Baroo...

A couple of days ago, the musician Grimes sold some animations she made with her brother Mac on a website called Nifty Gateway. Some were one-offs, while others were limited editions of a few hundred – and all were snapped up in about 20 minutes, with total takings of more than US$6 million. Despite the steep price tag, anybody can watch or (with a simple right-click) save a copy of the videos, which show a cherub ascending over Mars, Earth, and imaginary landscapes. Rather than a copy of the...
