    Off Menu: Just BE Kitchen

    The menu at Just BE Kitchen is filled with comfort food like French Toast Sliders, Chicken and Dumplings, and Shepherd’s Pie – all that just so happen to be gluten-free. That last part isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you take a bite of the warm, nourishing food, and that’s just how founder Jennifer Peters wanted it. Peters doesn’t come from an intense background of strict food rules or a crunchy all-natural family, she is just a former athlete who found a way to increase her performance by eating anti-inflammatory foods. She was tired of the only

    Brian Hedden Leads Colorado’s Environmental Movement By Example

    Between his upcoming documentary and future plans, Hedden does more than tell us to make greener decisions. He wants to show us how. Brian Hedden didn’t set out to make a documentary on fracking in Colorado. But back in 2017 he met some Lakota Elders, who had been at Standing Rock, and they convinced him to just look into it.  “At the time my thoughts were more about climate change in general, and what a person can do about it,” said Hedden.  But before he knew it, Hedden was going to meetings, talking to activists, recording thousands of stories, filming

    Not all Heroes Wear Capes-The Return of Superkids 2024

    Two moves, a massive spring snowstorm, a downpour of rain, a lot of community support, and 57,000 steps later, The Return of SuperKids 2024 indeed took place this past weekend. But it almost didn’t. The Most Unlikely of Heroes and How a Real Estate Company Rescued SuperKids It’s been four years since Yellow Scene Magazine’s beloved SuperKids Expo took place. Prepandemic SuperKids Expo had grown to 6,500 people in 2019. (Sidenote: In 2016 it was 8,000 people, thanks to Stephen Tebo, who brought the Batmobile) But then COVID hit, and SuperKids Expo was no longer providing families a super fun

    Ketamine: An alternative to police force or a silent killer?

    By Caralin Nunes, Wyatt Myskow and Grace Copperthite (Via AP Storyshare) Howard Center for Investigative Journalism  Aurora Fire Rescue paramedic Jeremy Cooper stood above the slight 23-year-old man as he lay face down in the grass, a policeman’s knee in his back, wrists handcuffed and pulled high behind him.  For roughly six minutes, Cooper observed the man crying, gagging and calling out for help while being pinned face down by two officers. The paramedic asked no questions and performed no physical exam before deciding that the young man was suffering from “excited delirium” — a controversial term used to describe

  • April Love

    April Love

    The title refers to the song, not the month, although the month of April has much to praise. I listened to Pat Boone’s April Love on the car radio during a short drive on a lovely April day last week. As with so many melodies from the past, April Love evoked gentle memories – or perhaps merely soft sensations – from my youth. I was 10 when it was recorded. Later that day, back in the car, my wife and I endured the one-note, repetitious, crude, pounding lyrics emanating from our grandson’s iPhone, prolifically available to any child, courtesy of Spotify and
