Broncos rookie WR Marvin Mims Jr. a bright spot in bad start to 2023: “He’s been doing a lot of things really well” Late in the first half Sunday against the Dolphins, the Broncos needed points. Badly.What looked like a promising sequence turned to disaster when Denver failed to capitalize on taking over at the Miami 33-yard line after a fourth-down stop. The Dolphins scored to make it 28-10, then scored again 22 seconds later after the first of two Courtland Sutton fumbles.Turns out, Miami wasn’t done scoring. Not by a long shot.In this moment, though, in need a big play to at least try to get back in the game, Denver and quarterback Russell Wilson turned to rookie wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr.Wilson forced a ball into double coverage toward Mims, who ran a double move toward the goal line. It got knocked down, but Mims has made more than one contested catch so far already in his young career. He did it on a 38-yard post route earlier in the game, in fact.The next play, head coach Sean Payton ratcheted down the degree of difficulty. Mims and Jerry Jeudy ran crossing routes past each other and Mi...

Opinion: Does Suncor — an urban pollutor — need hospice or rehab?

Opinion: Does Suncor — an urban pollutor — need hospice or rehab? Suncor Energy has a long history of polluting the community and violating the laws and regulations designed to protect people who work at the facility and who live nearby. This dark history includes innumerable malfunctions, accidents, and discharges of chemicals into the air and water.In the past, local leaders ignored, protected, or covered for Suncor because of the economic and political power wielded by Colorado’s only oil refinery. Now, local leaders are fed up. Some point out the endless cycle of “problem, apology, and repeat.” Even the Commerce City mayor said the community’s relationship with Suncor is like a domestic violence situation, where one spouse continues to abuse the other, even after multiple promises to do better.As Suncor continues to cough pollution into our air and secrete chemicals into our water, it is fair and justified (perhaps absolutely necessary) to reassess our relationship with Colorado’s only oil refinery which is located in the middle of the metropo...

Warning issued for Lake Castaic LOS ANGELES - State water managers are warning people to stay out of Lake Castaic due to a potentially dangerous algae bloom.Lab tests this week found an increased level of toxins in the water due to the presence of blue-green algae, the California Department of Water Resources announced Tuesday.People are urged to avoid swimming or recreating in the lake, avoid eating fish or shellfish from it, and avoid any contact with algal “scum” in the water or on shore. “Boating is allowed, but water-contact recreation and sporting activities are not considered safe due to potential adverse health effects,” DWR said.The warning covers the entire lake, with the exception of Castaic Lagoon. People are also urged to keep their pets and livestock out of the water.While blue-green algae, or cyanobacteria, is a natural part of the lake's ecosystem, levels can become elevated through warm water temperatures, storm runoff that carries nutrients, like fertilizer, into the water, and stagnation.Exposur...
