JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. (AP) — Destruction of its signature trees and driving off-road during the partial government shutdown have added to problems that will force popular Joshua Tree National Park to temporarily shut down this week.Closure of the vast desert park is set for 8 a.m. Thursday and will allows staff to address sanitation, safety and resource protection issues that have occurred, the National Park Service said in a statement Tuesday."While the vast majority of those who visit Joshua Tree National Park do so in a responsible manner, there have been incidents of new roads being created by motorists and the destruction of Joshua trees in recent days that have precipitated the closure," it said.RELATED: Garbage, feces take toll on national parks amid shutdownThe statement did not describe the extent of damage to the crazy-limbed trees with clusters of green spikes. A telephone message seeking comment was not immediately returned.Like other national parks, Joshua Tree remained accessible despite the government shutdown and problems of human waste, trash and damage began to occur as staffing was cut and visitor centers closed.Park supporters, members of local communities who depend on visitor traffic and even some visitors stepped in to help with some basic cleaning of restrooms and trash. The National Park Service said that assistance has been significant.RELATED: San Diego's federal workers struggle without paychecks as government shutdown lingers"Park officials are identifying the additional staff and resources needed to address immediate maintenance and sanitation issues and will utilize funds from the park fees to address those issues per the recently updated National Park Service contingency plan during a lapse in appropriations," the statement said.It added that restoration of access and limited services would occur "in the coming days" but gave no time frame.Joshua Tree sprawls over nearly 800,000 acres (323,755 hectares) of the Mojave and Colorado deserts about 140 miles (225 kilometers) east of Los Angeles.In 2017, it set a new attendance record with visits by more than 2.8 million people, an increase of nearly 340,000 over the previous year's record.It is most popular between October and May, when temperatures moderate from fierce and sometimes dangerous summer heat. Visitors are advised to have a gallon of water per day per person, and double that for hikers and cyclists. 2451

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The old saying that 'cash is king' isn't always true in the time of COVID. Many businesses have gone cash-free, asking customers to pay with cards instead.It's one of the changes Crow's Coffee implemented as a result of the pandemic."Even pre-COVID, cash was already a dirty thing," Zach Moore, the owner, said.By accepting online orders and cards only, Moore hoped to limit contact between customers and staff.Most, but not all, customers had no problem with the decision."There have been a few people that want to use cash and can't, and they tell us it's illegal for us to not take cash," Moore said.However, according to the Federal Reserve, it is in fact legal."Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether to accept cash unless there is a state law that says otherwise," says the agency's website.Some states and cities, including New Jersey, Philadelphia, and San Francisco, have instituted bans on cashless businesses. Proponents for the bans argue not everyone has access to a debit or credit card.However, no such legislation has passed in the metro area.Screenland Armour in North Kansas City is another local business encouraging online orders and avoiding cash right now.The changes are speeding up the ticket line."As fast as you can come inside and get to your seat, that's better for all of us because we have fewer people in common areas," Adam Roberts, Screenland Armour Co-Owner and Operator said.Crow's Coffee will soon reopen the common area at its South Plaza location, and the business will also begin accepting cash.Finances played into the decision since there's a fee for every swipe."We do want to start taking cash again a little bit just because it does save us a lot of money," Moore said, "That being said, we are definitely encouraging people to continue to use a card just to keep our staff and the customers safe."This story was first reported by Cat Reid at KSHB in Kansas City, Missouri. 1974

JCPenney is in serious trouble. There's no sugarcoating it.The department store chain, famous for its Christmas catalogs, is losing money — and customers. It has a lot of debt. And not much cash.A dismal earnings report on Thursday only reinforced that time is running out. JCPenney reported an adjusted loss of million in the first quarter, even worse than Wall Street was expecting, and lowered its projections for the year. Sales fell 4 percent, also missing estimates.Much like floundering rival Sears, JCPenney is struggling to adapt to the changing retail landscape as people increasingly shop on their phones. 628

Known as the Green Mountain State, Vermont’s bucolic natural beauty offers a sharp contrast to the reality facing some of its residents.“The room you're in here would be busy all day,” said Gary De Carolis, executive director of the Turning Point Center in Burlington, the state’s largest city.Normally, 3,000 people would come to that addiction treatment center each month.“Then, the pandemic hit and, of course, everything just went; everyone just retreated to their homes,” De Carolis said. “And we know that the enemy of recovery is isolation.”The most recent stats available from the state’s Department of Health, from April, show Vermont had 47 opioid-related deaths, which is an increase over the 38 overdose deaths seen at the same time last year.In addition, compared to April of last year, the rate of nonfatal opioid overdoses doubled from 14 percent to 36 percent.Nationwide, the American Medical Association said nearly 40 states have seen spikes in opioid overdoses since the pandemic began.“There is no question that the current COVID pandemic does increase risk factors that we know, even in typical times, are risk factors for overdose, more drug use,” said Dr. Patrice Harris of the American Medical Association.Those risk factors included not having regular access to health care providers and a disconnect from normal routine and community, especially when in-person addiction treatment centers closed all over the country.That’s where telehealth stepped in, up to a point.“However, let's note there that if you didn't have a data plan or phone or computer or access to even broadband, then you weren't able to take advantage of that,” Dr. Harris said.Back in Burlington, via phone calls or Zoom meetings, the Turning Point Center is seeing about 500 clients a month, a fraction of what they would normally see, but no less needed.“Until we have a vaccine, I don't think it'll ever be business as usual,” De Carolis said. “One day at a time, as they say.” 1983
