Let's get into it: COLORADO NEWSLINE: Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signs four gun control bills into lawGOVERNMENTBY: SARA WILSON - APRIL 28, 2023 11:54 AMThe Governor, surrounded by gun-control advocates at a bill signing ceremony said, “Coloradans deserve to be safe in our communities, in our schools, our grocery stores, nightclubs and everywhere in between,” The new laws raise the minimum age to buy a gun to 21, impose a three-day waiting period for gun purchases, expand the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law and make it easier for gun violence survivors to sue the gun industry.Under Senate Bill 23-170, district attorneys, educators, mental health professionals and other medical providers will be able to petition a judge to confiscate guns from a potentially dangerous person. Previously, only law enforcement and family members had that power under the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law, also known as the red flag law, which was created in 2019.The expansion aims to increase utilization of the process and extend the petition authority to people who interact with an at-risk person regularly. It is a recognition that some law enforcement officials have been reluctant to use the red flag law when potentially appropriate due to concerns over the Second Amendment.Senate Bill 23-169 raises the age to purchase any gun to 21 years old. Previously, the age restriction was 18 to buy a long gun and 21 to buy a handgun. There are exceptions for members of law enforcement and the military.House Bill 23-1219 imposes a three-day waiting period for people to get a gun after they pay for it. Bill sponsors said that the delayed access to firearms will provide a cooling-off period for people in crisis who might harm themselves or others.Cities will be able to establish longer waiting periods if they choose. If the purchaser's background check takes longer than three days — which it rarely does — they would still need to wait until the background check clears to get their gun.Finally, Senate Bill 23-168 removes a state protection for gun and ammunition dealers and manufactures against lawsuits. Previously, plaintiffs had to pay the legal fees for defendants in dismissed cases involving gun sellers. That is no longer the case.The law makes the gun industry susceptible to lawsuits under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act.bill sponsor Sen. Sonya Jaquez Lewis, a Longmont Democrat, said, “We finally, after 23 years of waiting, can open up Colorado courtrooms to gun violence victims and survivors seeking justice,” Less than an hour after the bill signing, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners leader Taylor Rhodes announced on Twitter that the group had already filed lawsuits challenging the minimum age requirement and waiting period laws. He said they are seeking plaintiffs who could establish standing against the other two new laws.Lawmakers are also considering a bill that would outlaw unserialized firearms, also known as ghost guns. Another firearm bill that would have banned semi-automatic weapons in the state died in its first committee hearing last week.The Legislature adjourns on May 8.COLORADO NEWSLINE: Colorado lawmakers stand with Zooey ZephyrDemocratic state Rep. Brianna Titone of Arvada led over 75 Colorado elected officials - including two Republicans - in sending a letter to Montana lawmakers condemning the removal of Rep. Zooey Zephyr and calling for her to be allowed back in the Montana House chamber.In the letter, Rep. Titone said the removal was an attempt to erase trans people amid growing violence against them and an increase in anti-trans laws being passed in state legislatures.Titone said “As elected officials, it is our responsibility to act with integrity and defend our democracy, and we are deeply concerned with erosion of democratic norms we see proliferating in statehouses across the country. Regardless of your personal stance on these issues, she is still a colleague and a duly elected and sworn representative of the people of Montana. Her voice is no less important than yours.”The letter was joined by two Republican lawmakers, state Reps. Ron Weinberg of Loveland and Rick Taggart of Grand Junction.On Tuesday, Montana House Republicans posted a notice announcing they would take up disciplinary measures against Zephyr, Montana's first openly transgender representative, after she said that legislators who voted for a bill that bans gender-affirming care for minors would have blood on their hands, in reference to suicide rates among trans youth. The Montana House voted along party lines Wednesday to bar Zephyr from entering the House floor or gallery for the remainder of the legislative session, only allowing her to participate in votes via Zoom.Rep. Titone made history in 2018 when she was elected the first openly transgender state legislator in Colorado. As chair of the Colorado Legislative LGBTQ caucus, she's worked alongside members of the House and Senate to expand and protect LGBTQ rights in the state.In the letter, Titone applauded Zephyr for her efforts in the Montana Legislature, saying that she has “placed a spotlight of truth on the very real damage anti-trans legislation could have on Montanans who are already struggling with discrimination and growing fear of physical harm.”The Montana state legislative session ends on May 10, and Zephyr is unlikely to be reinstated before the end of the session. Aside from state Rep. Brianna Titone, here are the elected officials from Colorado who signed Titone's letter to the Members of the Montana House of Representatives:Statewide officials:Colorado Secretary of State Jena GriswoldColorado State Treasurer Dave YoungColorado state senators and representatives:House Speaker Julie McCluskieSenate President Steve FenbergHouse Majority Leader Monica DuranSenate Majority Leader Dominick MorenoRep.

In their letters, the groups cited an increase in extremist and conspiratorial rhetoric espoused by Arizona public officials, specifically, publicly elected sheriffs. “We are deeply concerned by the possibility that this amended rule will open the door for Arizona peace officers to receive training from adherents of the ‘constitutional sheriffs' movement and other actors who urge local law enforcement to assume authorities beyond those allowed by law,” wrote Mary McCord, the executive director of Georgetown University Law Center's ICAP, a nonpartisan institute focused on constitutional rights and protecting democratic processes.McCord warned that such taxpayer-funded trainings “would place residents at risk of improper activity by county peace officers” and pose a particular threat to brown and Black communities, “who are at the greatest risk of harm from abuses by law enforcement.”The letters cited previous reporting about so-called “constitutional sheriff” groups, which include the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association. The group is part of a national movement built on the idea that a local sheriff's power supersedes that of higher government entities including the U.S. president and the U.S. Supreme Court, and that sheriffs have a duty to nullify laws they interpret as unconstitutional.The civil rights and advocacy organizations highlighted numerous connections between the CSPOA and a variety of hate groups, with the NAACP denouncing some CSPOA members as “prominent antisemites, QAnon conspiracists, white nationalists and neo-confederates.”Sarah Kader, community manager for ADL Arizona, a state-level branch of a national organization that combats hate groups in the U.S., wrote “If the revised rule goes into effect, we fear that domestic extremists, based on their previous actions, will rush to take advantage of the opportunity,” Rachel Goldwasser, a senior research analyst for the Southern Poverty Law Center, warned that the rule change could be used as a blueprint for creating workarounds allowing extremist organizations to train law enforcement in other states.Neither the governor, Democrat Katie Hobbs nor the attorney general, Democrat Kris Mayes, directly addressed concerns about neo-confederates and other domestic extremists running law enforcement trainings.ADL confirmed it did not receive a response from Gov. Hobbs' office until after the rule change took effect, though a spokesperson indicated the group had “every reason to believe that the Governor's office understands the concerns we have raised in our letters and is taking them seriously.” In their letters, ADL, SPLC and the NAACP all expressed concerns that more than half of Arizona sheriffs are at least partially aligned with the constitutional sheriff movement—connections AZCIR highlighted in its 2022 reporting.Rachel Goldwasser of SPLC said “Arizona has a large extremist presence in the Legislature, sheriffs' offices and among the public, unfortunately. They'll exploit any opportunity for these extremists to spread their ideology.”Three of the four letters also issued a warning about Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, who has known ties to CSPOA and is the frontman for Protect America Now, another so-called “constitutional sheriff” organization.Lamb, who announced a bid for the U.S. Senate in April, has developed a national presence by appearing on a slew of fringe right-wing news networks and podcasts, including those espousing QAnon conspiracies. Lamb did not respond to a request for comment.Sarah Kader of ADL said “In recent years, extreme ideologies have been mainstreamed and normalized at an alarming pace. This is due in large part to the growing number of elected officials and other high-profile individuals who traffic in conspiracies and hate.”This article first appeared on Arizona Center for Investigative Reporting and is republished here under a Creative Commons license.DENVER WESTWORD: How Hard Can it Bee? ZzzzzzBee Here Now: Capella Ranch Has a Honey of an IdeaCATIE CHESHIRE APRIL 25, 2023 6:53AMIn countries like Germany and Slovenia, inhaling the aerosol created by bees in an apiary, or collection of beehives, is an authorized treatment for respiratory diseases. But in the United States, there are only three places that offer the experience: one in Georgia, one in Michigan, and Capella Ranch in Lafayette Colorado, which just opened for its second season.Carolyn Peterson, who owns the ranch with her family said “I'm going to be out here all summer, talking to people and enjoying them and hearing their stories. They're going to come stressed out, and then they're going to leave relaxed.”Capella Ranch currently has sheep, Nigerian dwarf goats, Nubian goats, ducks, chickens, a few turkeys and, of course, bees, the first of which arrived in 2018. To create their bee therapy Shangri-la, the Petersons started by building two cedar huts shaped like irregular pentagons. The cedar contributes to the aroma in the huts, although its durability in the Colorado weather is its chief asset here. The slanted roof of the hut concentrates the aerosol so people can breathe it in while they're lying flat. “Everyone comes out with a different experience,” Carolyn says. “They get in there. They lie down. They take in the whole thing, and then they just sort of concentrate on the humming of the bees.”When bees make honey, there's a lot of water in it at first, so the insects work to reduce the moisture content by flapping their wings. As it evaporates, the moisture is carried into the air to form an aerosol that people find therapeutic.The bees also create an electromagnetic field with their vibration, which is at a frequency that's calming to the human parasympathetic nervous system - a network of nerves that helps relax the body. Some people can feel the field, but most notice the smell first. Underneath the scent of cedar, there is the aromatic tang of the bees at work. Almost like the smell of a newborn baby, but with an extra oomph.“That is all the pollen, nectars, amino acids and essential oils that the bees are bringing in to make the honey,” Carolyn says. “It's just kind of an odd smell, and it's supposed to be very good to breathe in.”In Slovenia, the bee experience has been used to calm firefighters after hard jobs, children who have behavioral problems at school, and parents of those children, who might need some relaxation as well. The Petersons note that they aren't medical professionals, so they don't consider their huts medicinal.“If it happens to help, great,” Carolyn says. “It's relaxing. It's thirty minutes of nobody bugging you.”One person who says the bee huts have helped is Marsha Ruggeri, who lives in Lafayette. She went to Capella Ranch four times during its inaugural season.She first came with a friend who'd bought a deal on Groupon. After struggling with heightened asthma symptoms the past two years — which she attributes to wildfires and air pollution — Ruggeri was excited to learn of a potential way to alleviate her symptoms.And, it worked!“I'm not saying it was a panacea,” she says. “It felt like I was actually doing something that wasn't an inhaler or medication and I was regaining some control over how my body was reacting to all this shit in the air.”On Ruggeri's third visit, she experienced the electromagnetic field produced by the bees.“I was laying on my side, and then all of a sudden, I could feel it,” she says. “It really deserves more than one treatment. It's kind of like people who go for acupuncture, and they're like, ‘Well, it didn't do anything for me.' You really need to try it more than once.”Along with the eight hives in the huts, there are six to eight more near a special pond on the ranch where the bees drink. Last summer, over a hundred people came to Capella Ranch to check out the bees; a TikTok Charlie made announcing that the huts were open has gained about 20,000 views.One of those visitors, a reiki and yoga teacher from Fort Collins named Yarmey, found Capella Ranch on Instagram. “I'm really interested in energy and grounding and our connection to nature,” she says. Reiki is a practice of directing energy to help facilitate healing.After her first visit, Yarmey came back a second time, when she says she was really able to share a meditative space with the bees, reveling in their presence in a way that humans rarely get to do with other species.“When else in your life do you get to share space with a million other beings who all are very clear about their purpose and their path and what they need to be doing? Everything felt a little slower, more grounded.”The huts are now open for a second season; anyone is welcome except those allergic to bee or wasp stings. A thirty-minute session is $35; an hour runs $60. CONCERT PICK OF THE WEEKDENVER POST: Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, with Angel Olsen - this Thursday and Friday night at Red Rocks.By JOHN WENZEL | jwenzel@denverpost.com | The Denver PostApril 28, 2023 at 6:00 a.m.Jason Isbell's voice can be a strapping, mournful thing, muscular and dripping with vulnerability as he chronicles his life in song. And on this day, it's still waking up.“This time of year I drink my black coffee cold so I can get it down quicker,” the 44-year-old singer-songwriter said over the phone from his Nashville porch on Monday. “I've spent so many years working late at night that it makes it hard for me to get on with normal life. It's tough, you know? But I think it's tough no matter how you do it.”Isbell's family and acclaimed music career test his resolve while giving him motivation to stay sober and productive. He has won a quartet of Grammy Awards since 2018 — about a decade after getting kicked out of his former alt-country band, Drive-By Truckers, for drinking and drugs In the HBO Max documentary “Music Box: Jason Isbell — Running with Our Eyes Closed,” which was released on April 7, we're afforded a close-up on his life as he records the album “Reunions” with his band, the 400 Unit. His intimate musical and romantic partnership with wife Amanda Shires (who is an acclaimed solo artist herself), his love of his daughter Mercy Rose, his past divorce, and the shock of the pandemic are all there in vivid cross-section.“If you're a recording artist or entertainer with any kind of success, you don't want to spend too much time looking back,” said Isbell, who was born in Green Hill, Ala., to a 17-year-old mother. “It's a self-centered way of living. But one thing I was surprised by watching the (documentary) is that I'd forgotten how hard those old days were, growing up where I did and having addiction issues. It was nice to see but painful to watch, that all of this was real and really happened to me, even if it's long in the rearview.”Isbell will headline Red Rocks Amphitheatre May 3 and 4 with the 400 Unit, on tour for their new album “Weathervanes,” to be released June 9. The lead single “Death Wish” has already been covered by Jack White and featured on “American Idol.” Isbell's melodies channel Americana, folk, country, and rock and roll. His lyrics are cutting, urgent, and full of visceral metaphors. On “Death Wish,” he sings:“I wanted action, she wanted answers / Sunrise with the dealers and the dancers / It takes a whole lot of medicine to feel like a little kid.”Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit With Angel Olsen, Two shows, May 3 and 4, at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

With Ohio State's spring game in the rear view mirror, let's look at the high points and low points from the spring game -- and the spring overall -- and what it means for the Buckeyes' 2023 season. Dave Biddle flies solo on today's show to discuss several topics, including: * Kyle McCord and OSU's quarterback situation. Can Devin Brown steal the job in camp? Or is McCord definitely going to be the starter, even after a shaky performance at the spring game? * Second-year defensive players C.J. Hicks, Kenyatta Jackson and Sonny Styles shined on Saturday and throughout the spring. What will their roles be this fall for Jim Knowles' defense? * Will OSU land an offensive tackle in the transfer portal? What are thoughts on the current O-linemen on the team? * The Buckeyes landed two more commitments in their 2024 class on Saturday -- 4-star tight end Max LeBlanc and 3-star running back Sam Williams-Dixon. Ohio State has 12 commits and has the No. 2 class in the country. This is shaping up to be a huge and excellent class for the Buckeyes. All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

Ohio State wrapped up its spring football season on Saturday with the annual Spring Game inside Ohio Stadium. There were a number of big storylines inside the program this spring, but none bigger than the race for the starting quarterback position between Kyle McCord and Devin Brown.

The Athletic's Ohio State beat writer Cameron Teague Robinson joins Andy and Ari to check in on one of the nation's most intriguing teams. The Buckeyes have the nation's best receiver (best player?) in Marvin Harrison Jr. and a wealth of talent at receiver. But will Kyle McCord or Devin Brown be throwing the ball to those stars. Also, Ohio State looks to have a nasty defensive line. Will that be what finally gets the defense back to the level of dominance it will need for Ohio State to take back the Big Ten from Michigan?

Nathan and Stephen discuss what they saw from both quarterbacks and reassess where the battle stands halfway through the spring. They also ran down an injury update, discussed that uneven competition in the trenches and singled out one receiver who has helped himself a lot the past two weeks. Learn more about your ad choices.

A woman has been convicted of illegally issuing prescriptions for controlled substances over several months in Cherokee County, and now four others have been indicted on charges connected to the operation. Leslie Archambault, 47, from Woodstock, was sentenced in January to three years of prison followed by 12 years of probation, after pleading guilty to violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, according to court documents. Archambault elected to resolve her case before the case was indicted, so prosecutors proceeded with an accusation, said Cyndi Crossland, spokesperson for the district attorney's office. According to prosecutors, Archambault, who was employed by a doctor, repeatedly used a doctor's prescription pad to issue fraudulent prescriptions in the name and on the behalf of herself and others who had never been the doctor's patients. False prescriptions were issued, between Jan. 2 and Oct. 6, 2022, for medications including Adderall, hydrocodone, Xanax, phentermine, and tramadol. An indictment, filed Feb. 14, alleges that the group of associates includes, but is not limited to, Archambault, Jessica Weaver, Cathy Hudson and Jeffrey and Gina Moson. Weaver, Hudson and Jeffrey and Gina Moson are charged with one count of violating the RICO Act. In the indictment, prosecutors say the four defendants allegedly conspired with Archambault to illegally obtain prescription medication. According to the indictment, activities to support the prescription drug fraud included theft, forgery, identity fraud and violations of the Georgia Controlled Substances Act. A Canton man is behind bars after police say he shot into a car and injured two teenagers. Canton police responded to the area of Hickory Knoll Drive and Oakside Drive at about 12:59 p.m. Wednesday in response to a firearm discharge call, the department reported in a press release. There, they found two injured teens inside a car. After further investigation police identified the shooter as Jacob Garcia, 18, from Canton, authorities said. Garcia was arrested at his home at 7:10 p.m. without incident. According to his arrest warrant, Garcia is charged with shooting multiple times into a car with the two teens inside. A 17-year-old was shot in the pelvic area, causing damage to the bone, Canton Police Department said in the warrant. A 15-year-old was hit by shrapnel in his arm and had lacerations. Both were treated at a local hospital, and the teen who was shot was in stable condition Thursday, police said. Garcia is charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. Thursday, Garcia remained in custody at the Cherokee County jail without bond, according to the Cherokee Sheriff's Office.

He drilled a 3-pointer to tie the game at 50-50, but with 20 seconds still on the clock, it wasn't even the biggest shot of the night. River Ridge's defense got a stop and a rebound, and as time ticked down, Jay McCord got to the 3-point line, pulled up and connected. McCord's shot gave the Knights a last-second 53-50 win. Hansraj finished as the Knights' leading scorer in the first-round win, picking up 17 points. McCord had 13 points, Greyson Hopf had eight points and Jackson Head tallied seven. Head's presence was critical in keeping the Panthers' big men contained, though he fouled out with four minutes remaining in the game. Coach Aaron Darling praised his team for sustaining the lead and keeping the defensive pressure up without one of their best players down the stretch. The buzzer-beating win was a massive energy and confidence boost for River Ridge after it fell in the Region 6AAAAAA championship game to Etowah. The Knights travel to Blessed Trinity for Round 2 on Saturday. Day campers at the new LB "The Buzz" Ahrens Recreation Center have enjoyed the rock wall, basketball court and other activities during Cherokee Recreation and Parks' Non-Stop Action Break Camp.

There will be a Spring Into Action Break Camp April 3-7 at the WREC. For more information, head over to Play Cherokee dot Com. Cherokee started fast in Wednesday's 59-45 first-round home playoff win over West Forsyth. The Warriors scored 24 points in the opening quarter and overcame the absence of their top interior presence Dastin Hart. Nate Speaks got the start in place of Hart and provided valuable minutes as a disruptor inside. Cherokee also turned to a smaller lineup with Hayden Darko seeing the floor, who hit some key shots in the second quarter. Coach Veihman credited Speaks' defense for sparking Cherokee in the second half after it came out of the locker room slow on offense. Speaks forcefully blocked a shot on West Forsyth's first possession of the game and sent two more shots away in the second half. Cameron Pope's scoring was huge for the Warriors. He jump-started their offense with 10 first-quarter points, including a pair of 3-pointers. Pope finished with a game-high 20 points and connected on four 3-pointers. Behind Pope, Tayden Owens scored nine points, with Braylin Giddens, Lawrence Sanford and Darko all with eight points. The Warriors will host Berkmar on Saturday after the Patriots upset Buford 58-53 on Wednesday night. #CherokeeCounty #Georgia #LocalNews - - - - - - The Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast is local news for Woodstock, Canton, and all of Cherokee County.

When I was a kid, my father abandoned me. My stepdad came in and shortly thereafter, my last name was changed from McCord to Stewman. Stewman isn't even my real name. It's someone elses. My stepdad always pushed me to be someone and something I wasn't. He tried to force me into being an athlete. I can't throw a baseball to save my life. This pattern continued into adult life. I was trying to be different versions of who I was except the person I was intended to be in this timeline. I was Ryan the carwash guy. Ryan, the mortgage guy. Ryan the goody-two-shoes church-going multi-level marketer. I went to prison. Got married and divorced 3 times before I figured out exactly who the fuck I was supposed to be. The moment I embraced the Ryan I am today, the Hardcore Closer, it was game over. My name is not important,. But my mission is. I tell you this in hopes of saving you some time by starting with being who you truly are...........you. You're perfect that way. #RiseAbove HOW TO GET INVOLVED: This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction. Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction, imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being. He went on to create a powerful network of winners and champions in life and business creating a movement quickly changing lives one day at a time.
