Boat ramps at Grand Lake, Green Mountain, Lake Granby, Williams Fork, Wolford, and Shadow Mountain Reservoirs are closing for the winter As the fall season progresses and temperatures drop, Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds boaters headed to the Grand Lake, Green Mountain, Lake Granby, Williams Fork, Wolford, and Shadow Mountain Reservoirs that they are closing to boating for the winter. Concurrently, aquatic invasive species watercraft inspection and decontamination stations at these reservoirs will stop running through the winter after their last days. Colorado Parks and Wildlife fisheries biologists provide online survey summaries by water to the public Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) fisheries biologists are now providing to the public online survey summaries by water. The first page of the documents provide general information about fishing particular waters, such as location and access. A second page highlights detailed information regarding fishery management aspects. More waters will be added over time, and updates will be provided for waters that are currently available. CPW conducts hundreds of lakes and streams surveys each year. High priority and brood waters such as Chatfield, Pueblo, Horsetooth, and the Gunnison River are surveyed annually while smaller, more remote, or lightly used lakes or streams may only be surveyed once every 5-10 years. Try the CPW Fishing App The CPW Fishing App is the official fishing app of Colorado Parks and Wildlife, providing you great journaling, learning and scouting capabilities, even with no connection. Colorado Parks and Wildlife encourages anglers to submit condition reports to the DNR Fishing Reporter.

Have a fish you are proud of? Share your photo! Email [email protected] and put “Catch of the Week” in the subject line Conditions Report – Metro Aurora Reservoir This 762-acre impoundment is located off E. Quincy Avenue, two miles east of E-470. Open to boating. As of 10/21/2019, the water level is low and the public dock is completely out of the water! Fishing access throughout the reservoir is good due to the low water levels. Trout fishing from shore is fair to good using PowerBait and crawlers from the dam and off some of the points on the south side. Boaters are reporting anywhere from fair to good success on trout trolling with pop gear and crawlers. Walleye reports are slow to fair with an occasional good report using jigs and trolling with bottom bouncers. Some reports of perch being caught on jigs in 25 to 35 feet of water. Fly casters try the olive leech pattern. For more information call 303-326-8425. Park hours in October are 6:30 a.m. -7:30 p.m. Restricted to electric motors only. Aurora Reservoir Chatfield Reservoir This 1,356-acre impoundment is located in Chatfield State Park. As of 10/25/2019, the water temperature continues to drop. Walleye fishing has been good as shad populations across the lake have decreased, making it easier to find them. Walleyes are still being caught by vertical jigging with chartreuse or orange jigs with plastics or worms near points and drop-offs across the reservoir. Additionally, jerkbaits that mimic perch can catch large walleyes and try trolling these in deeper water or jigging them and slowly retrieving them on the gravel pits in the slow wake area. As the temperatures continue to drop bass are beginning to move into deeper water. Try using top water lures (see the tip of the week) in the mornings and switching to deeper running lures as the day moves on. Chatfield Reservoir Cherry Creek This 881-acre impoundment is located in Cherry Creek State Park, in Aurora. There are two entrances to the park, the east entrance off S. Dayton St. and the west entrance off S. Parker Rd. As of 10/25/2019, the cold weather has reduced shad populations, to an extent, and walleye are less spread out across the reservoir. As a result, try fishing regular summer hot spots based on structure (drop-offs, humps, points, etc.) that walleyes usually find appealing. Reports of a few wipers are also coming in and using the same reactionary techniques as walleye should give you a good shot at them as well. Rainbow fishing should start to improve and most of the traditional trout fishing techniques will work here. Try top water lures for bass in the morning and moving deeper as the day continues. Cherry Creek Reservoir Quincy Reservoir As of 10/25/2019, Quincy Reservoir is continuing to experience water quality challenges concerning blue green algae. Out of an abundance of caution, Quincy Reservoir is CLOSED for the season. The season typically ends October 31st. For more information, call 303-326-8425. Quincy Reservoir COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE ▪ 1313 Sherman St., Denver, CO 80203 ▪ (303) 297-1192 ▪ cpw.state.co.us Conditions Report - Northeast Colorado Bear Creek Reported 10/24/2019, this small creek has great accessibility (about 7 miles of public land access) and is only a short drive from Denver. Brown trout is the most common catch on this creek but there are some rainbows as well. There has been great water clarity and no runoff to report but keep an eye on rainstorms because they can greatly reduce water clarity. Try gold and silver spinners (Mepps, Panther Martin, etc.) if using a spin rod. Blue Fox Vibrax minnows with a spin blade are another good option for catching more aggressive browns (this will be a good option with another cold front approaching as fish will be more aggressive). If fly fishing try using Caddis, PMD’s, and Yellow Sallies. Euro nymphing is a good technique at this creek as well and makes a subtle bite easier to detect. Flows: 20 CFS at Morrison (10/25/2019) Bear Creek Big Thompson River As of 10/24/2019, fishing has been reported as good and lots of smaller (10 to 14 inches) browns and rainbows have been caught recently. The water clarity makes this a great river for sight fishing and spotting rising trout. Be sure to have a careful approach and not spook fish because if you can see them, they can usually see you. Midges (size 20 to 24) have been working below a dry fly. Be aware of where you are fishing on this river because there is a mix of public and private land. Flows: 35.7 at Loveland (10/24/2019) Big Thompson River Boyd Lake As of 10/20/2019, the water temperature have been in the mid 50’s to low 60’s and continues to drop. Bass fishing is reported as good in the shallows, coves, near the pump house, and inlets using a variety of jigs and artificial plastics. Top water lures can work well for bass this time of year. Some anglers are also reporting success using top water lures such as Kastmasters to target white bass in the coves, near the pump house, and shallow areas of the lake. The walleye bite has been picking up with reports of large fish being caught. Walleye also reported in 20 to 25 feet of water catching them off the bottom.

    Mr. Jeffery Morehouse Executive Director, Bring Abducted Children Home and Father of a Child Kidnapped to Japan House Foreign Affairs Committee Monday, December 10, 2018 Reviewing International Child Abduction Thank you to Chairman Smith and the committee for inviting me here to share my expertise and my personal experience on the ongoing crisis and crime of international parental child abduction in Japan. Japan is internationally known as a black hole for child abduction. There have been more than 400 U.S. children kidnapped to Japan since 1994. To date, the Government of Japan has not returned a single American child to an American parent. Bring Abducted Children Home is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the immediate return of internationally abducted children being wrongfully detained in Japan and strives to end Japan's human rights violation of denying children unfettered access to both parents. We also work with other organizations on the larger goal of resolving international parental child abduction worldwide. We are founding partners in The Coalition to End International Parental Child Abduction uniting organizations to work passionately to end international parental kidnapping of children through advocacy and public policy reform. At the beginning of this year The G7 Kidnapped to Japan Reunification Project formed as an international alliance of partners who are parents and organizations from several countries including Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The objective is to bring about a rapid resolution to this crisis affecting the human rights of thousands of children abducted to or within Japan. Many Japanese citizens and officials have shared with me that they are deeply ashamed of these abductions and need help from the U.S.

  • Introduction to Black Hole Entropy and Supersymmetry
    Introduction to black hole entropy and supersymmetry Bernard de Wit∗ Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kyoto University, Japan Institute for Theoretical Physics & Spinoza Institute, Utrecht University, The Netherlands Abstract In these lectures we introduce some of the principles and techniques that are relevant for the determination of the entropy of extremal black holes by either string theory or supergravity. We consider such black holes with N =2andN =4 supersymmetry, explaining how agreement is obtained for both the terms that are leading and those that are subleading in the limit of large charges. We discuss the relevance of these results in the context of the more recent developments. 1. Introduction The aim of these lectures is to present a pedagogical introduction to re- cent developments in string theory and supergravity with regard to black hole entropy. In the last decade there have been many advances which have thoroughly changed our thinking about black hole entropy. Supersymmetry has been an indispensable ingredient in all of this, not just because it is an integral part of the theories we consider, but also because it serves as a tool to keep the calculations tractable. Comparisons between the macroscopic and the microscopic entropy, where the latter is defined as the logarithm of the degeneracy of microstates of a certain brane or string configuration, were first carried out in the limit of large charges, assuming the Bekenstein- Hawking area law on the macroscopic (supergravity) side. Later on also subleading corrections could be evaluated on both sides and were shown to be in agreement, although the area law ceases to hold.

  • Monster Black Hole Found in Tiny Galaxy Discovery Hints at Twice As Many Supermassive Black Holes in the Nearby Universe As Previously Thought
    NATURE | NEWS Monster black hole found in tiny galaxy Discovery hints at twice as many supermassive black holes in the nearby Universe as previously thought. Ron Cowen 17 September 2014 Artist's impression by V. Beckmann/ESA/NASA/SPL Matter falling into supermassive black holes can get so hot that it emits X-rays. Astronomers have for the first time found strong evidence for a giant black hole in a Lilliputian galaxy. The finding suggests that supermassive black holes could be twice as numerous in the nearby Universe as previously estimated, with many of them hidden at the centres of small, seemingly nondescript galaxies known as ultra-compact dwarfs. Anil Seth of the University of Utah in Salt Lake City and his colleagues report the findings on 17 September in Nature1. The team became intrigued by the ultra-compact dwarf galaxy M60-UCD1, some 16.6 million parsecs (54 million light years) from Earth, in part because its X-ray emissions suggested that it might house a black hole. Images taken with the Hubble Space Telescope showed that the galaxy harboured a high concentration of mass at its centre, but the team had no idea how heavy the putative black hole might be. To weigh the beast, the researchers measured the velocity of stars whipping about the galaxy’s centre using an infrared spectrometer on the Gemini North telescope atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii. The high velocity of the stars is best explained by a central black hole that tips the scales at 21 million times the Sun’s mass, concluded Seth’s team.

  • Black Hole Math Is Designed to Be Used As a Supplement for Teaching Mathematical Topics
    National Aeronautics and Space Administration andSpace Aeronautics National ole M a th B lack H i This collection of activities, updated in February, 2019, is based on a weekly series of space science problems distributed to thousands of teachers during the 2004-2013 school years. They were intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in the math and physical science curriculum in grades 10 through 12. The problems are designed to be ‘one-pagers’ consisting of a Student Page, and Teacher’s Answer Key. This compact form was deemed very popular by participating teachers. The topic for this collection is Black Holes, which is a very popular, and mysterious subject among students hearing about astronomy. Students have endless questions about these exciting and exotic objects as many of you may realize! Amazingly enough, many aspects of black holes can be understood by using simple algebra and pre-algebra mathematical skills. This booklet fills the gap by presenting black hole concepts in their simplest mathematical form. General Approach: The activities are organized according to progressive difficulty in mathematics. Students need to be familiar with scientific notation, and it is assumed that they can perform simple algebraic computations involving exponentiation, square-roots, and have some facility with calculators. The assumed level is that of Grade 10-12 Algebra II, although some problems can be worked by Algebra I students. Some of the issues of energy, force, space and time may be appropriate for students taking high school Physics.

  • A Critical Analysis of the Black President in Film and Television
    “WELL, IT IS BECAUSE HE’S BLACK”: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE BLACK PRESIDENT IN FILM AND TELEVISION Phillip Lamarr Cunningham A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Angela M. Nelson, Advisor Dr. Ashutosh Sohoni Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Butterworth Dr. Susana Peña Dr. Maisha Wester © 2011 Phillip Lamarr Cunningham All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Ph.D., Advisor With the election of the United States’ first black president Barack Obama, scholars have begun to examine the myriad of ways Obama has been represented in popular culture. However, before Obama’s election, a black American president had already appeared in popular culture, especially in comedic and sci-fi/disaster films and television series. Thus far, scholars have tread lightly on fictional black presidents in popular culture; however, those who have tend to suggest that these presidents—and the apparent unimportance of their race in these films—are evidence of the post-racial nature of these texts. However, this dissertation argues the contrary. This study’s contention is that, though the black president appears in films and televisions series in which his presidency is presented as evidence of a post-racial America, he actually fails to transcend race. Instead, these black cinematic presidents reaffirm race’s primacy in American culture through consistent portrayals and continued involvement in comedies and disasters. In order to support these assertions, this study first constructs a critical history of the fears of a black presidency, tracing those fears from this nation’s formative years to the present.
