A state board agrees with Rio Blanco County that an energy company’s gas gathering and processing personal property assets in the county are worth far more than what the company paid Encana for them and other holdings in 2017.

You have questions. I have some answers. Q: Tom Hanks made a movie about being the captain of a destroyer escorting a convoy during World War II. I do not know the name of the movie, but I don’t think it was ever released in theaters. I can’t find it on Redbox or pay-per-view, and I cannot find it for purchase anywhere. Do you know what happened to this movie? Answer: The name of the movie is “Greyhound,” and it is quite good. As you know, when the pandemic forced many movie...

ON MARCH 29, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the director of the Centers for Disease Control, shared “the recurring feeling I have of impending doom.” She later gave MSNBC viewers some good news: “Our data from the CDC today suggests, you know, that vaccinated people do not carry the virus, don’t get sick.” Three days later, a CDC spokesman took it back: “Dr. Walensky spoke broadly during this interview.
