Little Shop of Physics wins $50K grant to continue science education for kids (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Inside the Little Shop of Physics workshop at Colorado State University, a hair dryer is pointed at a pinwheel rigged with color-coded LEDs. When air is shot at it with a certain force, a red light will flicker on. With greater pressure, the light turns orange, followed by blue. The miniature wind turbine was built by an undergraduate student to demonstrate, in the simplest possible terms, that some colors of light take more energy to produce than others. It’s one of dozens of hands-on experimen

Bondi Beach Bar rolls out reusable drink covers to curb drink tampering (opens the original)
Read excerpt

This year, Denver Public Schools seniors with a 3.0 grade point average or higher will receive automatic admission from Colorado State University in lieu of a traditional application. I don’t think that’s the win it’s being sold as, and I think we’ve already run this experiment once at a national scale and watched it fail. In 2
Colorado's 'Skip the Stuff' bill dies on governor's desk, advocates say they aren't done (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every takeout order comes with a familiar ritual: a fistful of napkins, a handful of plastic forks and three ketchup packets nobody asked for. A national campaign called Skip the Stuff wants to flip that default, requiring restaurants and delivery apps to ask customers before adding single-use serviceware to an order rather than including it automatically. New York City adopted the policy in 2023. New Jersey towns including Red Bank have followed with local ordinances, and California passed a st
