Something in the Air – Boulder’s National Center for Atmospheric Research

Humans have always had a complicated relationship with weather. Ancient cultures prayed and made offerings to gods in hopes of receiving conditions conducive to growing crops.

Humans have always had a complicated relationship with weather. Ancient cultures prayed and made offerings to gods in hopes of receiving conditions conducive to growing crops. Adverse weather, then, was often interpreted as displeasure on behalf of those same beings—a punishment for failing to observe proper rituals. It doesn’t take a history scholar to understand this impulse. Weather, now as then, is both an enemy and ally. On one hand, it provides everything from the raw material for food—sunlight driving photosynthesis, wind the primary method of plants spreading their seeds—to …

Sometimes, writing about art and theater feels a lot like falling down the proverbial rabbit hole as I try to find the angle to write about wandering through a haunted-theater immersive experience, getting splashed in a Halloween horror show in the basement of a spaghetti emporium, sweating through a DIY D&D in a comic shop, savoring (har har!) Sweeney Todd’s enraged high notes, and trying to quiet my howling dog in a public house. I’ve found myself in some odd and awkward scenarios. To update the metaphor, writing this column is a lot like drunk-clicking through an endless algorithm o…

Why Coach Prime is Priming to Leave

To be honest, I always assumed that Deion Sanders would be gone sooner than later. My black and gold sunglasses still envision a time when Kordell Stewart, Rashaan Salaam, and Chad Brown played for the Buffs. When the Buffaloes were often ranked in the top 20, sent tons of talent to the NFL, and…

To be honest, I always assumed that Deion Sanders would be gone sooner than later. My black and gold sunglasses still envision a time when Kordell Stewart, Rashaan Salaam, and Chad Brown played for the Buffs. When the Buffaloes were often ranked in the top 20, sent tons of talent to the NFL, and even won a National Championship. But like the transfer portal and NIL deals – Times have changed. The Colorado Buffaloes have a record of 52-104 since 2006, no thanks to some questionable coaching hires that include Dan Hawkins (2006-2010), Jon Embree (2011-2012), Mike MacIntyre (2013-2018…

Seals are broken, cotton gloves are provided, and except in unusual circumstances, an officer stands by to protect the integrity of the evidence. Yet, how many la…

Tim Burton is not a filmmaker. You can be forgiven for the confusion that previous sentence created, but let me explain. Tim Burton isn’t someone interested in making movies in the traditional sense. Instead, he’s an artist. He’s more focused on eliciting an emotional response as opposed to telling a story, and he uses the trappings and equipment of cinema to craft his art. In his way, Burton is similar to Andy Warhol. Both men had passionate defenders and equally passionate attackers. Both men were driven by particular artistic inclinations. Both men did it their way.
