In “The Winter’s Tale,” Leontes, King of Sicilia, asks a favor of his pregnant wife, Hermione: persuade his childhood Polixenes, King of Bohemia, to extend his visit a few days. As a very pregnant Hermione (Emily Van Fleet) gamely fulfills his request, Leontes (Josh Innerst) casts sidelong looks from across the room.In the Colorado Shakespeare Festival’s handsome production of that late Shakespearean work — directed by Wendy Franz — those stolen glances might have been Leontes merely checking in on Hermione’s success. Instead, they come to signal the onset of a raging illness: jealousy.“Too hot. Too hot!” he says in an increasingly unhinged aside as his wife gives Polixenes (Stephen Tyrone Williams) her hand.The late scholar Harold Bloom described Leontes as “an Othello who is his own Iago.” And Leontes’s unfounded, self-inflicted torment is a thing to behold. He’s a hot mess. As played by Josh Innerst, his descent into suspicion isn’t only tiring, it’s also tyrannical. And that...After fireworks show, Arvada police say a “reckless” motorcyclist blasted down closed street, endangering pedestrians

Just before an officer succeeded in stopping him, a mother pushing a stroller with her child in it rushed to move out of his way, police said.Arvada police reconstructed the incident in exacting detail Thursday, nearly two days after the incident, editing together video from officers’ body cameras to show how close the motorcyclist appeared to come to injuring more people.By the end of the incident, police said, two officers and the motorcyclist sustained minor injuries.(Watch video on Facebook.)Police said officers arrested Trey Patrick Bailey on suspicion of vehicular eluding, a felony, and preliminary misdemeanor charges of driving under the in...Broncos need second-year jump from DL pair Eyioma Uwazurike, Matt Henningsen

For most Broncos fans, the team’s 31-28 win over the Los Angeles Chargers to close the regular season represented little more than a feel-good finish to an otherwise exasperating campaign.It will go down as Jerry Rosburg’s lone head coaching win and other than that stand unassuming in the franchise’s history.Don’t tell that to Matt Henningsen and Eyioma Uwazurike, though.The rookie defensive linemen combined to play a season-high 47 snaps that January afternoon, a last chance to glean meaningful experience from what was considered by most a wasted season.Not so for individual players like the rookie duo, who could well be counted on extensively in 2023 and beyond to provide sturdy work in the trenches for defensive coordinator Vance Joseph.“It’s very good that they got those reps,” defensive line coach Marcus Dixon said recently. “They come in (now) and you can tell that they’re a little bit more confident in what they’re doing and in their ability.

Four teams of experts have presented their visions for the regeneration of Mariupol once it is back in Ukrainian hands. All agreed that the city's future lies in its "unfolding" towards the sea.

The next stage will be the combination of the best proposals to create a detailed urban masterplan for Mariupol.The four experts were:Fulco Treffers, a Dutch expert and co-founder of the Ro3Kvit urban coalitionViktor Zotov, founder of the CANactions educational platform and head of the Zotov&Co architectural bureauUkrainian architects Yana Buchatska and Anna Kamyshan, with urbanist Serhiy RodionovVictoria Titova, director of the BigCityLab urban bureauThe concepts we...The Renegade Series: A Family’s Tale of Courage and Survival Amidst the Civil War
