Comment on Police rescue animals stranded at flooded Texas shelter

When Sekisui House, a Japanese homebuilder, announced it would purchase M. D. C. Holdings at the start of the year, an unanswered question was how long the Denver-based homebuilder’s founder Larry Mizel and his top lieutenant, David Mandarich, might hang around. There is an answer. Mizel and Mandarich are scheduled to leave the company they had steered for five decades on Dec.

Colorado has agreed to do more to prevent needless isolation of thousands of people with physical disabilities who were confined to nursing homes, settling a federal lawsuit that claimed state health officials illegally segregate too many people. U. S. Department of Justice officials on Friday announced the settlement. Colorado officials committed to taking the following actions before February 2026: — Help thousands of nursing facility residents move — Identify people at risk of unnecessary confinement — Give information needed to make choices. — Help people with disabilities find accessible, affordable housing — Connect people with Medicaid long-term care services — Boost opportunities for people with disabilities to control their care — Support family caregivers “People with disabilities should not have to give up their lives in the community and be isolated in nursing facilities to get the services they need,” Assistant U.

The nearly 40 signs he passed, including one that promoted something called Writer Enterprise AI and another for Speech AI, were fresh evidence, he thought, of an economic bubble. “Not that long ago, they were all crypto,” Covello said of the billboards.

While the wolves themselves cost nothing, the planes to surveil them, the crates to transport them and the creation of the plan to manage them were not free. Those are some of the expenses incurred by Colorado’s wolf reintroduction program, which has cost $4.8 million since voters in 2020 mandated the return of the apex predator to the state, according to a spreadsheet of spending obtained from Colorado Parks and Wildlife via a public records request. Costs have remained under the amount appropriated to the program by state lawmakers, but are almost twice the amount estimated to the voters who elected to reintroduce the native species. Spending on the program started years before the first capture of wolves from Oregon and their release in central Colorado in December.

The Nuggets recently posted back-to-back overtime victories and my immediate takeaway was simple: They owe Nikola Jokic an apology. Denver is off to a clunky start. Entering Friday night, Jokic, the reigning MVP, was averaging a career-high 31.5 points on 39 minutes per game. Nobody cares more about winning than Jokic. But this roster is making him selfish.
