DENVER (KDVR) -- It is not in the nature of Colorado's hikers, bikers, skiers, joggers, kayakers and hunters to pay homage to National Lazy Day. Aug. 10 is National Lazy Day, where Americans are encouraged to relax and let work and stressors take care of themselves for the day. An analysis of CDC data from ColoradoBet, though, says Coloradans aren't likely to join in the restful festivities. Colorado is the nation's third most active state, according to the most recent federal data. Of the state's adults, 27.4% meet federal activity guidelines -- 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and two days of muscle-strengthening activity each week. Did Colorado just record its largest hailstone ever? Only two states -- both relatively remote and mountainous -- have a greater activity level. Vermont has the nation's least lazy citizens, with 28.5% meeting federal guidelines. Montana comes in second with 28.3% meeting guidelines. After Colorado, the District of Columbia and ...At least six dead as people fleeing Hawaii wildfires pulled from ocean

Additional details about the victims have not been released. Fire was widespread in Lahaina Town, including on Front Street, a popular shopping and dining area, County of Maui spokesperson Mahina Martin said by phone early Wednesday.Photos posted by the county overnight showed a line of flames blazing across an intersection and leaping above buildings in the town center that dates to the 1700s and is on the National Register of Historic Places.

(CNN) — There’s a new coronavirus variant topping the leaderboard in the United States: EG.5.Nationally, EG.5 is causing about 17% of new COVID-19 cases in the country, compared with 16% for the next most common lineage, XBB.1.16, according to the latest estimates from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.EG may sound like a whole new flavor of the virus, but it’s not; it’s a spinoff of the XBB recombinant strain of the Omicron family. And it represents another incremental tweak to the virus rather than a major evolutionary leap like the original Omicron strain.Compared with its parent XBB.1.9.2, it has one extra mutation to its spike, at position 465. This mutation has appeared in other coronavirus variants before. Scientists aren’t sure exactly what new tricks it enables the virus to do, but variant hunters are paying attention because many of the new XBB descendants have adopted it.The 465 mutation is present in about 35% of coronavirus sequences repor...Coral Springs ‘Big Brother’ star Luke Valentine ousted from show after using racial slur
