Shell seeks Colo. water for oil shale production Shell Oil has filed for the first major water right on the Yampa River in northwest Colorado for its oil shale development plans. Shell applied Dec. 30 in state Water Court to use about 8 percent of the Yampa's peak spring flow. Shell spokesman Tracy Boyd says the water would be shipped to a reservoir for later use in oil shale production. Critics say extracting oil from shale will use too much of the West's scarce water.

How is it that death can be all around us and still seem distant and slightly unreal, like a punchline in a foreign language? Caught in the headlight’s beam, a flash of heart-shaped face, bone-white, grinning like a sugar skull: an opossum playing dead among the roadside wreckage of Happy Meals and Slurpee cups, white-tailed deer intestines, splattered housecats — all the collateral damage of our distracted lives.

The whole thing is just friggin’ creepy. Fifteen years ago, a strange-looking child suffering from severe physical maladies and acute retardation was brought into the office of Dr. Theodore Tarby.

I don't know whether Ron linking to this blog so regularly--several times a week now, it seems--is indicative of his interest in the incipient dialogue over new aesthetic taxonomies, or else mere rubbernecking at the scene of what might seem (to him) a tragic taxonomic car-crash.

Expert Predictions: Stock Market Could be Good in 2009USA TodayNEW YORK — Stock market forecasts tend to be sunny, and 2009 is no exception. Wall Street gurus are again predicting gains. But this year's bullish market call comes with an asterisk.Wary stock strategists, unsure how the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression will play out, are hedging their bets. Rather than just sharing an opinion about what they think is the most likely outcome for stocks in their '09 outlook reports, Are there too many bowl games?
Maybe. This year, counting the BCS championship game on January 8, there are 34 bowl games. That means 68 of the 119 Division I teams are playing in a bowl game. Are teams being rewarded for a good season played? Maybe. Teams are eligible for a bowl game by winning only six games (usually half the games they play). Teams in a bowl game with 6-6 records include Notre Dame (Hawaii Bowl), Memphis (magicJack St. Petersburg Bowl), Colorado State (New Mexico Bowl), Southern Mississippi (New Colorado State Hopes to Use 100% Wind
Colorado State University officials hope to one day power their school using 100 percent wind power. This story in the Fort Collins Coloradoan says the school plans to apply in February to put up an 8,000-acre wind farm that could power the entire university: CSU officials said earlier this year the wind farm could be operational in 2010. The wind power from the farm won’t go directly to CSU, but rather be pumped into the power grid as part of the larger energy portfolio.
