Nathan MacKinnon had a goal and an assist in his 700th NHL game and the Colorado Avalanche won their third straight game with a 5-1 road victory over the Anaheim Ducks Monday night.
Nikola Jokic led the Denver Nuggets to a 116-111 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night in a game that was set to be a matchup of MVP front-runners until the Sixers decided to sit big man Joel Embiid due to a sore right calf.
“That’s a lot of access and those are short periods of time,” said Virginia McCarthy, a doctoral candidate at the Colorado School of Public Health and the lead author of the research letter describing the findings in the medical journal JAMA Pediatrics.
175 people have died in 15 such events connected to U.S. schools and colleges — from 1999's Columbine High School massacre to Monday's shooting in Nashville, Tennessee.
“Officers can’t just pat down students every day just because,” said APD spokesperson Sydney Edwards.
“I just, I have no interest,” he said. “That’s where I’m at personally.”
"Gospel was in her heart," said Gary Houston, who recalled his sister around the age of 5 wearing their mother Cissy Houston's wig and high heels while using a broom as a microphone. "We woke up to and went to sleep to gospel. She would sing exactly what she heard my mother and her siblings. No secular music. It was all gospel."
"It's satisfying and vindicating. But it's hard for me to look at it and say, 'Hey, I told you so. I knew I had it,' unless I beat Roman Reigns," said Rhodes about his comeback.
"You really have to be in your mid-60s to even remember this other than as it's something that you learn about in school," said Fleming, a 64-year-old soprano who bid farewell to the standard repertory six years ago. "I'm sorry, but in the context of what's going on now, Watergate doesn't seem quite as horrific as it did at the time."
"Playing to 4,000 people for 34 dates is not enough, and I know that," Adele said. "So I am coming back for a few weeks in June, and I'm going to release it to make sure anyone who wants to see this show can see it."
History of Aurora, Colorado
Aurora was incorporated as the town of Fletcher on April 30, 1891. The new town, one of the new crop of suburbs sprouting up around Denver, was four square miles of prairie reaching from Yosemite Street to Peoria and 6th Avenue north to 26th Avenue. In 1907 the town was renamed Aurora. Aurora history is one of change, growth, diversity, and community.
Aurora’s Military Heritage
Since the very early years of this city, the military has been a big part of Aurora’s history. For almost 100 years, Aurora has been home to countless service men and women and their families. They are part of a rich heritage that makes up our community. Let’s take time to honor those who have served and are serving our country in the armed forces.
In 1918 during the beginning of Aurora’s first building boom, Army General Hospital #21 (re-named Fitzsimons Army Hospital) was built east of town. Twenty years later, in 1938, Lowry Air Force Base was opened to the southwest of town. Rather than closing Fitzsimons, the U.S. government expanded and upgraded the hospital facilities in 1941 just in time to care for the wounded servicemen of World War II. Lowry expanded to a site 15 miles to the east in 1942 that eventually became Buckley Air National Guard Base and later Buckley Air Force Base.
