SandBox Comments: KJCT News 8 ""BearCat" Drops Off Toys"
Finally!!
The answer to the question: "What is a BearCat really used for?"
"GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. -- The Grand Junction Police and Mesa County Sheriff's Office SWAT teams have been working along side Fruita Police and the Colorado State Patrol for the past two weeks.
They had a goal in mind and today it was accomplished.
A SWAT armored rescue vehicle, called the "BearCat" rolled into The Salvation Army in Grand Junction...."

SandBox Comments: Pueblo Chieftain "Case raises criticism of DA's office "
What about the accused, David Carrillo? And the alleged victim?
That seems to be a question that's been completely lost in the war going on down in the 10th Judicial District.
There are a couple of judicial districts in Colorado that have heated battles stirring in the races for District Attorney.
In the eyes of voters in commentary, there couldn't be a more opportune time than 2012.
There is little doubt anywhere that a conservative will win the Presidential Election. And that there will be major uprooting in Washington, D.C.
The folks are fed up. Had a belly full and just not going to take it anymore. On the other hand, not one of these politicians schmoozing for our votes right now are looking ahead at how the states are going to handle having what they want dumped right in their laps.
What's going to happen when the State of Colorado has all the handling of education, human services and immigration placed into their hands and out of the hands of the feds?
For a long time, the folks have been hollering that they think politics should be removed from anything that is tied to their physical safety and security. Primarily, the offices of Sheriff and District Attorney. That Judges should be the only ones needing to receive a nod from the folks.
There could not be a better example of outrageous government conduct than Democrat Bill Thiebaut. He's the 10th's current D.A. and recently rose up in public scrutiny over his involvement in congressional redistricting issues. This is a public official who has made no bones about the fact that he is using the Office of the District Attorney as a political stepping stone.
Nothing wrong with that, many D.A.'s do same.
But what happens to accused David Carrillo? What happens to the alleged victim?
The folks would like to know.

SandBox Comments: Aspen Times/Letter to the Editor "Taking blame for signs on museum site"
Never, in the past or future history of Aspen, Colorado will there ever be a building built that is or will be uglier than the upcoming Aspen Art Museum.
The most god-awful looking design in history of The Valley. Possibly even the world. Good lord, it is an atrocity.
Seriously. Ask just about any local.
And which Valley community is currently cornering the market on social, business and professional homicide through the use of gossip?
The histrionics of the Aspen Art Museum director come very close to a wide range of others in socially prominent positions in our local communities who ratchet up similar public displays.
What sets 'us' apart from the norm around the nation in the gossip arenas?
Most communities have banned the town square/public stocks/stoning thing.
So, so not cool.
Since she personally knows how upset and shook-up Lee Mulcahy was at the possible allegation being twisted by out-of-control local power brokers; over this stupid, ridiculous grandstanding and completely unfounded debacle that the Aspen Art Museum director pulled over these harmless (and dead-on accurate in content) signs....'SandBox Nanny' sends out a special thank you to the City of Aspen cop who immediately saw reason and decided to simply ask Lee what his involvement was rather than 'throw him in the public stocks, then the slam and hold court right there in order to sentence him to death'.
Whew!
Mr. Cohen, we couldn't agree with you more.
"Dear Editor:
Since the Aspen Art Museum director has seen fit to open an attack against Lee Mulcahy, I will take this opportunity to confess to being the person who hung the two “For Sale” signs on the tractor trailers that were parked on the vacant lot (construction site) where the Wienerstube used to stand.
The signs were two 81⁄2- by 11-inch sheets of copy paper Scotch-taped with two strips of tape on each computer-printed sheet. I thought that this would be an amusing way to call attention to this extremely disliked project that has been forced upon our cityscape.
I do not know Mr. Mulcahy, and I do not know what he did to incur the wrath of the Art Museum director, but please do not condemn him for my actions.
Having cleared the record regarding whatever minor incidents occurred, I am offended by Madam Director's branding these actions as “cowardly.” She, who engineered the slimy, underhanded, backroom blackmailing (or worse?) of City Council, in order to hide her project from the scrutiny of the public approval process, is the true coward...."

"...Grading criteria includes not developing undisturbed lands and protecting endangered species, protecting watersheds, conserving energy with investments in renewable energy, as well as limiting expansion of snow making.
Powderhorn shared its A with two Aspen resorts, but beat them both by percentage points."
