The NBA is Broken

It would have been nice to see Steph Curry, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA), or Giannis Antetokounmpo in the All-Star Game this past weekend, but sadly, all were out with injuries. Team World played most of the contest without Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic, and, of course, SGA and Giannis. In other …

It would have been nice to see Steph Curry, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA), or Giannis Antetokounmpo in the All-Star Game this past weekend, but sadly, all were out with injuries. Team World played most of the contest without Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic, and, of course, SGA and Giannis. In other words, Team World was in a World of Hurt. Or did you happen to catch rookie sensation Cooper Flagg in the Rising Stars? Me neither. Plenty of Team Stars and Team Stripes this weekend, but Team Flagg was out with a bad foot. Rising Stars? Or Falling Stars? Lebron James missed his 18th ga…

On a beautiful Boulder, Colorado day, under bright blue skies and crisp mountain air, today’s Dog of the Day made his presence known on one of his favorite local trails. Compact, sturdy, and full of character, this little guy carries himself with the confidence of a dog twice his size. His upright ears stand tall and alert, and a distinct white stripe running down the center of his face gives him a bold, unforgettable look. With warm tan coloring blended into his coat, he fits perfectly into Boulder’s rugged outdoor backdrop. Mid-walk, he paused, lifted one paw, and looked directly at the …

Boulder's neighboring Westminster Butterfly Pavilion is home to many of the famous and beautiful blue morpho butterflies. These blue beauties are both spectacular and fast!  They simply won't hold still to be photographed. Yesterday was the exception. I set up in a comfortable position, propped on a bench, and waited. I found a spot where the blue butterflies were visiting. And I waited. Then I waited some more Finally I spotted one that had landed. Then I started shooting. After taking a few dozen pictures I picked the sharpest of the photos.  I sat for at least a half hour to get this …

It’s Hard to Dream, Think, or Build New Systems if You Haven’t Healed

Dream Tank’s Systems Change Lab was supposed to be a build sprint: practical tools, real-world testing, something a city could hold in its hands. Then the tragic events of December 13th happened at Brown University, and the project became deeply relevant. Heidi Cuppari, Dream Tank’s founde…

Dream Tank’s Systems Change Lab was supposed to be a build sprint: practical tools, real-world testing, something a city could hold in its hands. Then the tragic events of December 13th happened at Brown University, and the project became deeply relevant. Heidi Cuppari, Dream Tank’s founder and a Brown alumna, responded the way she often does: with presence, optimism, and an insistence that care is part of the work. She helped our group name what we needed next, which wasn’t another framework. It was fluency in trauma as biology: how stress reshapes the brain, interrupts memory, an…

The multiverse has been having a moment lately, particularly in film. In popular culture, the MCU has dug into the concept big time with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Fantastic Four, and most likely the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday. Everything Everywhere All At Once won seven Academy Awards. It’s an honest to goodness thing. The concept of multiverses is also a poorly understood thing, at least from a narrative perspective. It’s true that filmmakers can go batshit insane with multiple variants of the same character, or drop characters into increasingly bananas alternate di…

Sacajawea is forever tied to Boulder. With a coin face designed by famous sculpture Glenna Goodacre, mother of Boulder's own Jill Goodacre Connick, on the $1.00 coin, Sacajawea was in part guide, in part translator, peacemaker/peacekeeper/, and mother. She had to  walk 5,000 to 6,000 miles. Wages: poor? Place in history: huge.  Hours: 24/7. Native American essential.  Multilingual, and willing to walk around the entire Louisiana Purchase land as a portion  of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Or so her job request might have been written.  I wonder how hard it was to fill that job descript…

Sometimes you need soft lighting, wood accents, a relaxed pace, and a table that invites you to linger. If you’re looking for restaurants in Boulder that offer that comforting, grounded energy,…

A Stunning Winter Reflection Beneath the Flatirons Today’s Outdoor Picture of the Day captures a breathtaking winter scene from East Boulder — one that perfectly reflects why this town continues to inspire locals and visitors alike.

The kind of stillness you only find on…
