On Aug. 19, 1967, the Soviet Union’s communist newspaper, Pravda, accused China of making attacks on the Soviet embassy in Peking and straining relations between Russia and China, claiming that, “Literally not a single day passes without a malicious invention about the Soviet Union.”

On Aug. 20, 1959, actor Hugh...

Pet of the Week:

Meet Draco and Shego!

They’re a sweet duo currently calling the McKinley County Humane Society home.

They have endless fun together! They groom each other and loaf together. Draco is definitely the more vocal of the two, he’s not shy at all. Shego is much more gentle when playing with her brother. She would be great with kids.

This duo does not need to be adopted together,  but the humane society would love love to find them a good home. Anyone interested in Drago and/or Shego can visit them at the McKinley County Humane Society at 1273 Balok St. in Gallup. They are open Monday - Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm.

Confession time: I’m not a happy camper. I really don’t enjoy camping. Roughing it, sleeping in a sleeping bag in a tent in the wild. No thanks. It’s a little too quiet for me. If my hotel room faces the trees, I would consider that to be camping. But it seems like everyone’s going camping, and that got me thinking about the one camp tradition I can get behind: S’mores!

This warm, ooey, gooey treat always leaves us wanting some more. Which is where the name is believed to originate. As in “I want s’more!” It’s uncertain who invented the s’more, but Loretta Scott Crew, who made them for Girl Scouts by the campfire, is given credit for the recipe when it was first...

How far can a puppy hike?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I have a 1-year-old mixed-breed puppy named “Star” who I’d love to take on Saturday hikes with me. I’m an avid hiker who can do up to 20 miles or more per day. Is this too much for a young dog like her to handle? — Gary in Boulder, Colorado

DEAR GARY: Your instincts are right-on — that kind of mileage is too much for a puppy. But, depending on the dog, you can build Star’s stamina gradually, adding miles as she grows.

For a 1-year-old puppy, start with no more than a mile or two, and keep it light and fun. If Star whines at three-quarters of a mile, take a break for a few minutes and see if she’ll go on. If she shows signs of tiredness, like lagging...

Q: Do you know if they are going to make a second season of the new Justified series? — J.S.

A: It’s been more than a year since Justified: City Primeval premiered on FX. The reboot of the widely acclaimed original series Justified marked the return of Timothy Olyphant as Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, but it wasn’t set in the hills of Kentucky anymore. Instead, his character was seen in Miami, contemplating retirement before he was summoned to Detroit for a new case.

Walton Goggins, who played Raylan’s longtime foe Boyd Crowder, told TV Insider that “everyone wants to do another lap of Justified.” But he said, “It’s just a matter of timing and whether or not FX...
