...doctors pronounced him "the luckiest guy ever," and Patrick Lawler, 23, isn't about to disagree. The construction worker was building a house in Colorado when his nail gun backfired, driving a 4-in. nail through the roof of his mouth and into his skull. Amazingly, Lawler didn't realize anything was amiss until six days later when he went to a dentist with what he thought was a nagging toothache. It took surgeons four hours to extract the nail, which had penetrated his brain. The uninsured Lawler is expected to make a full recovery but now must contend with...
...large student population but has since found more of its clientele among an older crowd. With a VIP service that includes discounts on drinks, the company, which expanded into Denver in September and plans to move into at least five other cities this year, is endorsed by the Colorado State Patrol and sponsored by the likes of local beer Goliath Coors, which agreed to pay the first $20 of every ride on New Year's. But NightRiders' most effective marketing tool is a poster comparing its fees--a $15 flat rate plus $2 a mile--with the price...
...stir generated among climatologists by the AO makes Thompson, an atmospheric scientist at Colorado State University, a tad uncomfortable. "I guess I have a humble tendency," he says, noting that in science, credit seldom belongs to one person alone. Thompson is broadening his focus to include other components of the climate system, notably the AO-like Antarctic Oscillation, whose behavior, he thinks, has been profoundly influenced by the leakage into the stratosphere of man-made compounds that destroy the ozone. Result: wind patterns are keeping the white continent's interior bitterly cold while allowing the outlying peninsula to warm...
Expanding the party depended on reaching out to outsiders, the literal ones, pioneers of the new American frontiers that ring the old cities and suburbs--places like Colorado's Douglas County, Ohio's Delaware County and Farmwell Hunt in Ashburn, Va., which advertises itself as a place "where family values, engaged residents, nature, fun and safety come together to form a premier community." And then he went even further, to the rural communities that Presidents don't visit very much because of the potential inefficiencies of spending precious time on such sparsely populated locales. Bush put dozens of such communities...
Kuumba’s rendition of Colorado Mass Choir’s “The Real Meaning of Christmas,” included a duet with such sweet harmony that many in the audience closed their eyes to absorb the sound. Following this performance was a pop-style performance of “Mary Did You Know,” delivered by the Brothers of Kuumba (the group’s small all-male offshoot) and arranged by Reid himself. From the first beat of the Kuumba performers’ snapping hands, the crowd was up and down through...
