Remember How Boulder Was Involved in a Big Soda Flop?
Many who live in Colorado are health conscious; people who live in Boulder are more so. To think that Boulder would be involved in a soda, is remarkable on its own. On one hand, finding out that Boulder was involved in a horrible soda hitting the market and then failing, does sound better than if the soda would have been a hit. What would people think, today, of Boulder helping a soda company "win?"

Boulder Beatle Loving Butterfly: Two Tailed Swallowtail Tunes
This Papilio, a Two Tailed Swallowtail, or perhaps a Western Tiger Swallowtail, flitted from flower to flower fascinated by the pollen and the Beatles.

The Butterfly seemed fascinated (anthropomorphizing perhaps on my part?) by the Rolling Stones and Beatles. It hung out for a while exploring every flower in 10 pots surrounding me.

Get in, we’re going on a dam tour
HYDROVISION attendees visit Boulder Canyon Hydro Plant, NREL’s Flatirons Campus, and USBR’s Technical Services Center. It’s hardly 8 am and I’m jetlagged. My coffee tastes like burnt popcorn, and I’ve somehow selected a seat on the bus directly beneath the massive air conditioning unit. A colleague has given me an educational DVD to pass off to our driver- the idea is to play it for our tour group on the way to our first stop- but the player won’t recognize the disc. There have been smoother starts to a morning.

This year, The Myriade String Quartet was chosen for the quartet fellowship at the Colorado Music Festival. Based in Canada, The Myriade was formed in 2021 at the McGill Schulich School of Music.
