My family and I live in a rural neighborhood without sidewalks making it very difficult and dangerous to take our dog Casey on walks.

Racism has been a part of U.S history ever since the first slave ship arrived in 1619.

So many of the NBA’s great all-time teams have been located in the Western Conference. Recent examples include the Los Angeles Lakers‚San Antonio Spurs‚ Dallas Mavericks‚ and most recently the super team Golden State Warriors
