When Jarrod Phelps, a seven-year-old Adams 12 district resident, waits for the school bus each morning, dozens of other kids his age can be seen in the background, running around the playground of another school that is just steps from his home...
This is exactly how I felt after I saw “The Empire Strikes Back.” Luke stood there, flexing his newly robotic hand and watching Lando fly away in the Millennium Falcon and all I could think was, “How could this happen? Evil’s not supposed to win! Good is supposed to triumph! Everything’s upside down!”...
Relieve Your Holiday Stress
You know you’re starting to feel it already: that slightly irritable sensation in the back of your chest. The stress level may not be building just yet—but you know it’s going to be the holidays soon, and you’re gonna have to spend money on gifts, and your in-laws are coming, and you know your mom’s giving you...
ARIES (March 21-April 19): A top official at the European Robotics Research Network predicts that humans will "be having sex with robots" sooner than anyone expected -- probably within four years...

Some auditory stimuli: The metallic, loud crash of a speeding car hammering into an SUV on Interstate 25; the boom of a commercial trash bin being slammed back to the ground while you try sleeping in on a Saturday morning; the clanging, banging and pounding of your kitchenware by a small child...
Matthew loves Mel Gibson movies. Mark loves antiquing and reality TV. Luke has a soft spot for donuts. Juan’s into paintball and flan while Abraham wants to find a nice Jewish girl who looks good in red...
Having lived in Louisville for nearly two years, I can remember on several occasions passing by the flashy exterior of Spice China on McCaslin Boulevard. Its polished look and imposing size made us wary...
Sugarbeet is yet another game attempt at fostering the laudable imperative toward local, seasonal fine dining. Taking up a small corner of what appears to be a large warehouse, Chef Seth Witherspoon’s concept transcends its odd location (an unlikely Longmont locale reminiscent of a dodgy shipping pier) to offer tasty, sometimes dazzling...
Big bold reds. Big spicy reds. Big full reds. That’s what John Balistreri loves. A wine with some body that’s hot with alcohol. Sure, he makes other varieties at north Denver’s Balistreri winery, but he doesn’t hide what his favorites are—cabs, syrahs, merlots. The family-owned winery, which bottled its first vintage in 2000, has already made waves...
"The Yellow Scene’s statement (Letters, October) about the state legislature trying to pass a 'meaningless resolution' opposing the Iraq war was the most misinformed comment I’ve ever read in The Yellow Scene."

The roll of her eyes was unmistakable.
“You want to spend how much on a turkey?” my puzzled mother asked.
“About 30 bucks,” I replied.
“But Butterballs are only five bucks.”
“It’s worth the extra cost. Just think of the turkeys!”...
My mother thinks I’m a good writer. For the past several years since I acquired this position, she has called or e-mailed me right after receiving the new issue of The Yellow Scene and exclaimed how “funny” and “creative” I am. Too bad the rest of you don’t know me as my mother does.
When Dan Pope gets up each morning, he grabs his vaporizer, packs it with high-grade marijuana and inhales a few times. His intoxicating routine is a necessary part of getting him up on the right side of the bed, so to speak. At three other times during the day he repeats his regimented pot use. Yet Pope isn’t exactly your typical pothead. Far from it, actually...
However you describe LifeBridge Church’s Union project, never call it the city of Longmont versus the Lord. The battle over a giant planned unit development on the outskirts of the city is not about the Almighty. It’s about the almighty dollar. So when you look at the 348 acres near the intersection of Weld County roads 26 and 3 1/2, don’t think separation of church and state...
It’s always tricky endorsing candidates, especially when we’re talking about wannabe elected officials on the local level. We don’t like hurting feelings, and the 80-plus people running for various offices in the North Metro area have gone out of their way to spend countless hours campaigning to get picked to carry out an often thankless job. We commend everyone for running, even those we...
Louisville, you get your water way too cheap. Look at your bill, it shows you’re paying $2.68 for every 1,000 gallons. Basically, if you filled up a 20-ounce container, it would cost you way less than a penny...
We’ve all heard the story of Colorado State University student newspaper editor dropping the F-bomb in print next to President Bush’s name. J. David McSwane says it was an exercise in freedom of speech...
