In a recent profile of Shahid King Bolsen, the New York Times branded the Boulder native as "the unlikely apostle for a distinctive blend of anti-globalization sloganeering and Islamist politics that is fueling a new wave of violence against businesses across the country." Since the piece's publication, Bolsen has repeatedly rejected...
I’ve been planning food vacations for decades, a strategy that has led to many memorable meals, from a hearty onion tart in Strasbourg, France, to a cinnamon-dusted, pigeon-filled b’stilla in Marrakech. A year and a half ago, I added another globe-trotting dish to the list: tonkotsu ramen at a hole-in-the-wall...
In the Whale’s Eric Riley needs a job. At the end of June, he’ll return to Denver after seventy days on tour — this following last summer’s busy tour schedule: two weeks on the Presidents of the United States of America tour, two weeks home, three weeks on the Guttermouth...
America wants to legalize cannabis. That’s the gist of a poll conducted by General Social Survey, touted as the nation’s most reliable public-opinion survey group, which recently found that 52 percent of this country’s population feels that cannabis should be legalized. The poll asked 1,687 Americans whether they “think the...
Beer should be featured more often under Colorado's Capitol dome, but leaders of the House of Representatives got to hold up the next best thing last week when they were officially presented with the Hop the Vote trophy by the Colorado Brewers Guild. Last fall, a few members of the...

Over the past few years, Denver International Airport has made a concerted effort to land local restaurateurs -- and yes, a couple of Dunkin' Donuts -- and the result has been a decided improvement for passengers looking for some quick grub or even a sit-down meal. Just in time for...
Last month, we told you about Good to Know Colorado, a new marijuana-education campaign launched by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. As we pointed out, much of the messaging on the Good to Know Colorado website was more about what is and isn't legal than it was about...
A bill that would require dispensaries to post signs warning women not to smoke marijuana when they're pregnant won preliminary approval from the Colorado House yesterday. The measure, House Bill 15-1298, appears below in its entirety. We've also included a Colorado Public Health and Environment report from earlier this year...
The shape-shifting swarm of women moves at high speed across the field at Lakewood’s Washington Heights Park, cutting and dodging and lunging and gouging as they fight for control of an oblong ball. The women are split into two groups by their red and yellow scrimmage jerseys, each tasked with...
Joan Miró is without a doubt one of the key figures in the development of abstraction in the twentieth century. In fact, aside from Picasso, he is the most important source in developing non-pictorial images. In the 1920s, Miró, a Spanish artist working in Paris, like Picasso, began to develop...

Coyote Poets of the Universe has cultivated a unique songwriting style over the years in order to accommodate the disparate voices of its nine-piece membership -- the results will be on display during a show this Saturday at the Oriental Theater. But the band did not have ambitious beginnings; in...
Former Denver police officer Larry Stevenson has been known as a high-profile employee for the city's Excise and Licensing Department, a personal friend of Mayor Michael Hancock, the creator of the anti-crime program known as Transportation on Patrol and developer of the Medina Alert system, intended to help catch hit-and-run...
The Denver City Council approved a plant limitation on non-licensed marijuana grows Monday night that could force many cultivating operations within city limits to shut down. A 36-plant limit in non-residential zone lots was approved 11-0— meaning any recreational co-op or medical marijuana caregiver over the mark will have to...
Melissa Boyd had quite an evening of it this past Saturday. She was busted after a crash in which she's alleged to have drunkenly hit and run -- and shortly thereafter, authorities learned she'd left her eleven-month-old baby home alone while she did it. Continue for photos, video and details...
The challenge for Oskar Blues was to make a hoppy, low-alcohol "session" beer that wasn't a "watered down Dale's Pale Ale," says Oskar Blues spokesman Chad Melis. And the result, Pinner Throwback IPA, will hit liquor store shelves in six-packs of twelve-ounce cans later this month in Colorado and North...
Denver has never been a great town for fans of architecture. Important buildings from the past routinely go under the wrecking ball, while only a tiny percentage of their replacements are any good at all. It’s actually a brilliant strategy on the part of developers: Short-circuit any future historic-preservation struggles...

Nederland's Cody Cox was already known to local law enforcement when a Clear Creek County Deputy tried to pull him over just under a year ago -- and Cox ultimately led him and a colleague on a mini-chase of sorts. But did that mean his subsequent shooting, which left him...
Whenever there's a homicide related to marijuana, critics frequently use it as an example of how pot legalization leads to crime. This case will be more difficult to make when it comes to Lucas Johnson. The man accused of killing Edward Zimmerman, reportedly a marijuana grower in Routt County, has...

From their perspective, he was the walking, talking embodiment of ultra-conservatism's worst tendencies — and one with the potential of...
