Steal one book and it's shoplifting.
Steal 180,000 and it's a Silicon Valley business.
Thanks, @TheAtlantic and @_alexreisner for your work uncovering this.

@wmmarkeddy @jasonblevins @Colorado_TU @HWRiverJourney @wradv @ConservationCO @PepsiCo @writerstevens Good story. Hard to see why others should pay millions to repair environmental damage caused by a water district.

beautifully crafted and a poignant reminder that the enemy in war may be another man who also loves his family, wants to be with his children. It is a sometimes tragic story of conflict that leads to redemption and healing, even understanding. #HighlyRecommended

The latest entry on #RicksReadingList is the remarkable
@MarkObmascik book called “The Storm On Our Shores.” It details two men’s battles — one American, one Japanese — during a long forgotten World War II battle on an Alaskan island. The story is well-researched, (Con’t 1 of 2)

@Conrad_Swanson How do you write an entire A section page on this without mentioning the real reason it's happening -- it gives the developer an agricultural tax break that cuts property tax tenfold.
English
@N8Swick Wow. What do you call someone who makes up a sighting and then gets caught? Snake-bitten.

@alex_burness Come on, man. This report juices numbers by including $175M of Denver Health spending that would be needed even if the person had a home and $217M of charity contribs. It also says there are 6,100 homeless -- just last year homeless advocates said the number was 31,000.
English
Denver's annual per-capita homeless spending is at least double the cost of the average 1B apartment in the city, according to a new report. denverpost.com/2021/08/05/hom…

@StravaSupport How about making stationary indoor cycling a different category than cycling? Peloton and Zwift ain't the same as riding a bike, even though you give it equal weight in mileage totals. So many pix of Peloton instructors looking more like pole dancers than cyclists.

I was angling for the centerfold, but was beaten out by a pileated woodpecker. Thanks for the fun talk, @BirdingMagazine. aba.org/a-birding-inte…

@Humbledore Thanks. Sachtler sold the heavy television camera tripod that I had to lug up the mountain every day when I camped on Attu with 60 Minutes.
English
@markobmascik Just finished The Storm On Our Shoes and liked it very much. One question though, if I may -- What's the "no thanks whatsoever to Wendelin Sachtler" about in the Acknowledgements? Seemed, well, odd. Sachtler was a filmmaker, no?

@ryanohalloran Question for non-homer reporter: How does a team start the season with a $100K fine against the coach for not wearing a mask, then group together all QBs without a mask or social distancing? Why aren't management heads rolling?
English
Questions for the league office
1. Why not allow #Broncos to move game to Monday (Saints will be here tonight) when Bal-Pit was moved?
2. Why give Broncos OK to practice Thursday and Friday?
3. Why rule QBs ineligible today instead of doing round of tests tomorrow morning?

in order to account for the "must have hunting paraphernalia in them" rule, a lot of the contest entries have... litter in them

@danacoffield @laralikemascara @conarroe Sherry Williamson of AZ wrote the book on North American hummingbirds. facebook.com/sheri.l.willia…

@laralikemascara @conarroe Hey @markobmascik where do we go to find out this information? We the people are worried about hummingbirds during this dramatic cold snap.
English
@conarroe was wondering what happens to hummingbirds in this #cowx. This one is fueling up. #birdsoftwitter

After hearing @markobmascik read from this book at this year's (virtual) Colorado Book Awards, I ordered it from @BookBarDenver WOW. such a masterful telling of the absurdities and tragedies of war and the power of atonement. can't stop thinking about it...

@GeorgeBrauchler Can you imagine, after the Aurora theater shooting that you unsuccessfully prosecuted, someone going on Twitter and asking Coloradans if they were happy to live outside of Aurora. Shame on you, @GeorgeBrauchler. You are a leader with responsibility. Act like it.

If you live outside of #Denver, how happy are you tonight to live outside of Denver?

@FitbitSupport Why doesn't Fitbit Ionic integrate swims with Strava? Garmin does it. Should I switch back to Vivoactive?

Colorado is proud to be one of the healthiest states in the country, but despite this achievement, Coloradans face some of the highest health care costs.

I'm reading @markobmascik's "Big Year" right now for the tenth time in a row so this was extra sad to write.
