ST. LOUIS - Labor issues at Saint Louis University Hospital are intensifying as nurses at the hospital take part in a 24-hour strike that is underway. The strike is happening outside SLU Hospital on Grand in Midtown.It started at 7:00 a.m. Monday morning and is slated to end at 6:59 a.m. Tuesday.The union for the SLU nurses, National Nurses United, says the nurses are striking to protest what they call "the refusal of the hospital administration to address the RN’s deep concerns about patient care, safe staffing, and workplace violence."We’re told advance notice of the strike was given so the hospital could make alternative plans for patient care during the strike.

“Are you going to change your party affiliation to Democrat?” a friend asked.I had sparked the question by repeating my joke that had gone viral on social media about a certain Colorado congresswoman having a ball at a Denver playhouse while her lover stayed abreast of the plotline.Surely when an elected representative to Congress engages in a little heavy petting, vaping, videotaping, and other obnoxious behavior at a sold-out musical with children present, a few jokes are warranted. Family values-touting Congresswoman Lauren Boebert has issued an apology but then she shamelessly told One America News Network it was her “animated personality” that got her kicked out of the theatre.That’s all fair game for jest, no matter your political party.But my joke didn’t even garner a smile, not because it was puerile, he’d guffawed plenty at my Congressman Anthony Weiner puns; it was because Boebert is a fellow Republican. “Democrats have done worse. We’re just catching up,” he replied.For t...Editorial: Polis’ new free preschool needs immediate fixes

The rollout of universal preschool in Colorado for 38,000 kids has understandably been rocky.But the great success of the program – providing funding for 15 hours of preschool for thousands of 4-year-olds and getting kids kindergarten-ready – is at risk of being overshadowed by the flaws in the new system.Leaders with the state’s new Department of Early Childhood Education must act swiftly to make sure kids aren’t falling through the cracks and that enrollment for the 2024-25 school year is more equitable.In 2020 voters approved increased tobacco and nicotine taxes to finally fund 10 hours of preschool in this state for every child a year before they attend kindergarten. Over the next two years, lawmakers built a new state department to run the program and passed laws creating rules around the program. Funding projections were optimistic and the state agreed to fund 15 hours of school for every kid and 30 hours for kids at risk of falling behind in school.That program kicked off thi...Alleged DUI driver crashes into Orange County garage

Paranormal adventures aren’t just a Hollywood thing. Some travelers are obsessed with them too, eager to spot the unsettled spirits of the not-quite-departed-enough and hear haunting tales of, well, hauntings.To slake that thirst, Travel and Leisure, the travel magazine and website, is offering up its own take on the 20 most haunted cities in the U.S. We’re not talking single-ghost destinations like Lizzie Borden’s house in Fall River, Massachusetts. These are entire cities brimming with spooky sightings.San Francisco, for example, makes the list in the No. 15 spot thanks to its abundance of ghosts on Alcatraz Island, the magazine notes, as well as at China Camp State Park (ahem, not SF — it’s in San Rafael) the Mare Island Shipyard (again, not SF — Vallejo ) and aboard the USS Hornet, which is in Alameda. There have been so many ghost sightings on the latter ship, Cal Tech has an entire web page devoted to the stories.The legendary city of New O...Queen’s Brian May was part of NASA project that collected asteroid sample
