Denver's Civic Center will live up to its name today, with several civic demonstrations set for the park, from protests over police brutality to a satire of the mayor's State of the City speech. Black Lives Matter 5280 started a 135-hour vigil — to honor the 135 black people killed...

On Tuesday, January 17, Jeffco’s board of county commissioners will consider a proposed zoning change for a planned 140-acre development on four parcels straddling the four corners of the Alameda and C-470 interchange. The change would allow for a proposed hotel and gas station southeast of the interchange and, on the northwest quadrant, up to four car dealerships, which would surround the Dinosaur Ridge visitor center on three sides. Representatives of the developer, Three Dinos LLC, have described the request as “a minor change” in use for property that’s been zoned for commercial development for nearly a decade. But opponents of the plan say there’s nothing minor about the impacts the development would have on adjoining open-space land, on wildlife, on nearby hiking and biking trails, and on one of the last scenic vistas in the Rooney Valley, which has seen increasing encroachment by highways, the Solterra housing development, a motocross park, Bandimere Speedway and other projects.

The Denver Post has far fewer subscribers than it once did — and if even more cut ties over its new arbitration policy, the paper seems okay with it. A document obtained by Westword includes talking points for staffers dealing with angry subscribers. In it, the call takers are told to stress...
This season (as is typical for Colorado), the weather has been far from static. We've had cold temperatures one day, unseasonably warm ones the next. As a result, ice-covered bodies of water are particularly risky right now. But understanding that doesn't alleviate the shock associated with the story of Cole...
Last year, NerdWallet's list of the ten best U.S. cities for tech jobs featured one community in Colorado — that being Boulder. This year, Homes.com conducted a similar study for its New Tech City Index 2016, and once again, Boulder made the grade. But another Colorado city did, too —...
Wooden barrels look pretty on the outside, but it’s on the inside where the action happens. And it’s those chemical reactions where Zach Nichols has found an attraction.

You’ve mastered single-malt and bested craft beer; you’ve even solved the mysteries of mezcal and speak reasonable rum. But what of that clear — and clearly baffling — Japanese rice beverage called sake? Most of us vaguely remember blurry nights filled with dragon rolls and rounds of hot sake, sometimes...
We like what we like when it comes to dining out, but sometimes we're faced with a little too much of what someone else likes. Restaurant trends spread quickly based on what will bring in the cash, the customers and the thumbs-up reviews, but sometimes restaurateurs don't know when to...

This reaction carried over to yesterday's primary,...

Last month, as we reported, the United States Supreme Court decided not to hear a lawsuit filed by Oklahoma and Nebraska over Colorado's marijuana laws — specifically Amendment 64, which legalized limited recreational marijuana sales here after its passage in November 2012. The court's decision effectively snuffed out this avenue...
Noodle cravings can sneak up at the oddest of times, but when temperatures slither into the upper 90s, the thought of a hot bowl of ramen or a steaming mound of chow fun could curtain such desires. Some soup lovers advocate consuming hot broth to induce a cooling sweat, but...
