Or they’re lighting up local blue-collar bars and restaurants with Mimosas & Heels Drag Brunches for bridal parties, members of the military, families and friends.Or they’re reading in gardens to children dressed in their Sunday best — Dolly Parton’s “Coat of Many Colors” is a favorite book for performers and kids alike.In a string of towns running along a coal seam, the sparkle of small-town drag queens and kings colors a way of life rooted in soot, family and a conservative understanding of the world.Here two very old traditions mingle — and mostly happily, it seems, in contrast to ...Maternal deaths in US rose sharply over 2 decades

By Laura Ungar | Associayed PressMaternal deaths across the U.S. more than doubled over the course of two decades, and the tragedy unfolded unequally.Black mothers died at the nation’s highest rates, while the largest increases in deaths were found in American Indian and Native Alaskan mothers. And some states — and racial or ethnic groups within them – fared worse than others.The findings were laid out in a new study published Monday in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Researchers looked at maternal deaths between 1999 and 2019 — but not the pandemic spike — for every state and five racial and ethnic groups.“It’s a call to action to all of us to understand the root causes — to understand that some of it is about health care and access to health care, but a lot of it is about structural racism and the policies and procedures and things that we have in place that may keep people from being healthy,” said Dr. Allison Bryant, one of the studyR...Yosemite National Park visitors face unprecedented wait times

Just to give you an idea, Juneteenth weekend, we saw lines stretching along Highway 120 for eight miles with wait times exceeding four hours. Visitors were getting turned away after waiting all of that time."Why is the park so packed? Yosemite is open to visitors without reservations for the first summer since the pandemic.

(CNN) — Los estadounidenses deberían reconsiderar sus viajes a China debido al riesgo de detención arbitraria, advirtió el Departamento de Estado de EE.UU. en un aviso de viaje actualizado que se emitió el viernes.Aunque el aviso anterior también clasificaba a China continental como un destino de “Nivel 3: reconsiderar el viaje”, esto se debía al riesgo de “aplicación arbitraria de las leyes locales”. El riesgo de detención arbitraria se mencionó como una razón para que los viajeros estadounidenses “tengan mayor precaución” con respecto a esa notificación, que se emitió en marzo.Un portavoz del Departamento de Estado explicó que como el gobierno chino “sigue ejerciendo esta práctica”, “el aviso de viaje se actualizó para aconsejar a los ciudadanos estadounidenses que reconsideren viajar a China continental debido al riesgo de detención arbitraria”.China presenta una amplia ley de política exterior mientras Xi consolida su poder y pretende co...Latest news
