Either way, our ho-hum early ski season may have stopped that chemical reaction in your brain over white stuff -- the stuff that makes you do embarrassing and possibly illegal things just for the chance to ski or ride a big pow day.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[It's quite clear that Barack Obama is the best choice to succeed George W. Bush and attempt to restore America's standing in the world, its role as an international leader â   not bully â   and, most importantly, help steer the country out of its mounting economic woes. We urge our readers to vote Obama.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[The University of Colorado is on a roll, there's no question about it. Last year, donors contributed $133.5 million to CU, a high mark for the system. This year's efforts proved to be even more lucrative. University fundraising efforts netted a whopping $162.5 million, the most in the history of the university. But when you look at the breakdown of the university's total budget, the picture gets a little uglier. Financial gifts make up 6.8 percent of CU's total annual budget of $2.4 billion. And it's a good thing, too, since Colorado's contribution is only 8.8 percent, one of the smallest state contributions to a public university in the nation.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Conservatives will argue the Colorado Equal Rights Initiative is not deceptively named. It does, after all, call on the voters to prohibit state institutions from considering gender, race, color, ethnicity or national origin when evaluating students. Essentially, no matter if a prospective student is black or white, male or female, Jewish or Muslim, he or she wouldn't get any special treatment if the initiative passes.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[We'd like to start this piece with a call for unity, but not the kind that you're probably thinking of. It's not about unity in the Democratic Party now that Barack Obama is its presumptive presidential nominee. It's not a call for the Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens and - the Unity Party - to unify and try to fix some of the major problems facing the nation.]]></description>

Here's a guy, minding his own business, standing outside a CU dorm when out of nowhere a full-length mirror comes crashing down on his head. Now the man responsible for Moran's injuries, which included a nasty bump on the head and glass shards imbeded in his scalp, will serve only a year of probation and no jail time thanks in part to a plea for mercy by Moran himself.]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Most spiritually aware Boulderites have probably at least heard of the Great Law of the Iroquois Confederacy - that people should consider the impacts of a decision on the next Seven Generations. But when it comes to higher education, it has seemed in recent years as if the State of Colorado's vision quest hasn't looked far beyond one-seventh of a generation into the future. That's been a shame, because despite the occasional scandalous warts, higher ed and the research done at its institutions quite simply leads to development of cutting-edge technology, useful products and educated professionals. Students also gain exposure to new cultures, systems of government, literature, art, and discourse.]]></description>
