DENVER – The Yuma County sheriff denies he had a quid pro quo arrangement with Robert Mercer, the billionaire who backed Cambridge Analytica and Breitbart News, that resulted in a new truck for the sheriff.Bloomberg News reported Monday that Mercer and Yuma County Sheriff Chad Day had an arrangement that allowed Mercer, who is 71 years old, to be a volunteer with the sheriff’s office, and that that agreement led to Day receiving a new truck from a private law enforcement organization.“My first reaction is this Bloomberg journalist is a good writer, but he writes fantasy,” Sheriff Day said.The story published in Bloomberg, titled "Cambridge Analytica founder Robert Mercer got a new badge. Yuma County’s sheriff got a new Dodge Ram." was written primarily by Zachary Mider, whom Day was referring to in his statement.Mider has reported in recent months that Mercer, who until recently was CEO of New York hedge fund Renaissance Technologies LLC, had been a volunteer police officer in a small New Mexico town and that the arrangement allowed Mercer to carry a concealed weapon in any U.S. state under the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA).Mider reported Monday that Mercer additionally had a similar setup with the Yuma County Sheriff’s Office, citing a conversation with Day’s attorney, Robert Lees.“From time to time, he serves in certain roles as designated by the sheriff,” Lees said, as reported by Bloomberg. He additionally reported that Day said some volunteers were "directly involved in confidential undercover operations that involve direct ties and associations with the Mexican Cartel," though he did not say that Mercer was directly involved in those operations.Day further said that volunteer deputies can be involved with any host of operations, including search-and-rescue and, possibly, criminal operations depending on staffing levels and the volunteer's experience and qualifications.Bloomberg additionally reported that two men, George Wells and Peter Pukish, were also volunteer officers in New Mexico and volunteer deputies in Yuma County, and hinted that an organization for which the two were board members – the Law Enforcement Education Foundation – was involved in the alleged quid pro quo agreement.Mider had previously linked the Law Enforcement Education Foundation (LEEF) to Mercer through Mercer Family Foundation tax return records.Yuma County commission meeting minutes from several meetings in 2016 show that Sheriff Day did indeed receive a new pickup truck through LEEF.In a February 2016 meeting, Day told the commission that a Rocky Mountain Gun Owners employee had “put him in touch” with the LEEF, which the minutes note is “sponsored by Robert Mercer.”“Day shared that the foundation has interest in funding a new pickup for the Sheriff’s Posse to be used by Sheriff Day,” the minutes state.The group of volunteer deputies in Yuma County is referred to as the “sheriff’s posse,” according to the meeting minutes and conversations with Day.In an April 2016 meeting, the minutes note: “Day mentioned that the Sheriff’s Office is still in line for a donated vehicle that would be used by the Sheriff.”And four months later, in an Aug. 15, 2016 commission meeting, the minutes show that the LEEF had already donated the truck.“2016 Dodge Ram Pickup – Unit #162 – Hoover shared an email from Sheriff Day showing the invoice and title for the 2016 Dodge Ram Pickup donated by the Law Enforcement Education Foundation for use by Sheriff Day,” the minutes for that meeting show.And further, the sheriff’s 2017 budget proposal notes show that the sheriff’s office considered the LEEF grants a “new funding source” that “just this year replaced the Sheriff’s vehicle including upfit with a very nice Dodge Ram 1500 Limited valued at ,428.”The budget note also says further that “the sheriff’s vehicle has needed to be replaced for 3 years now and would not have been replaced with something so nice, but still would have required approximately ,000 of county expenditure.”The budget proposal mistakenly refers to the grants as “LEEP grants,” but notes that the grant for the sheriff’s office’s truck helped mitigate ,428 in expenses.The Bloomberg story also hints at donations for Tasers made by LEEF to the sheriff’s office being tied to Day’s decisions.In an interview Monday, Day didn’t deny using the LEEF grants or having a volunteer program like the “sheriff’s posse.” But on multiple occasions, he declined to say who worked as volunteers, though he denied having any sort of tit-for-tat arrangement with Mercer or LEEF.“To be clear, there certainly is no quid pro quo arrangement,” Day said.He said a friend of his told him about the LEEF grants, and that he’d applied and been awarded several of the projects he’d applied for. An archived LEEF website notes that its mission is to "help law enforcement officers and agencies in training, equipment, matching funds and family line-of-duty funds grant."“They certainly weren’t some sort of trade for volunteer work,” Day said. “[The writer’s] assertion was that I was granting [LEOSA] status in exchange for those things…that’s not true.”Day also claimed that Bloomberg had misinterpreted some of what his attorney, Lees, had said about Mercer’s connections in Yuma County, and said that the Bloomberg writer “made that connection on his own.”Lees did not respond to a phone message left Monday requesting further clarification the statements attributed to him by Bloomberg.Still, Day said he indeed had a volunteer program and said it included people from outside Colorado – despite his denials that he would name names.“I don’t have any issue with allowing people from other states – if they’re willing and have means and skills – to be willing to come help me out for particular cases or particular areas,” he said. “Regardless of where volunteers live, and regardless of how they want to volunteer, I’m the sheriff of a fairly small agency in a rural part of this state, and I don’t have enough staff to do all the things that statute requires of a sheriff.”Day pointed to two reasons for not naming the “posse” of volunteers. First, he said, some of them want to be anonymous.“They want to serve and they don’t necessarily want any recognition for it. And so I choose to respect that,” Day said.Second, he said, it was unsafe to share who might be a volunteer.“There are some people who work for me who actually work in an undercover capacity,” Day said. “And so again, tactically and for personal safety reasons, it’s just not wise to reveal their identities.”A spokesperson at Renaissance Technologies, where Mercer is still employed, declined to comment Monday. An email to Mercer requesting comment was not returned. Requests for comment made to the LEEF also went unreturned Monday.Mercer financially backed Cambridge Analytica, which Denver7 has reported in recent weeks had a role in Colorado's 2014 election, and whose was used to help Republicans eventually retake the state Senate. Yuma is also home to Colorado's Republican U.S. Senator, Cory Gardner, whose spokesman said he didn't know anything about the story aside from what he'd read in Bloomberg.But Day was adamant that even if Mercer is one of the volunteers – which he would not confirm – that it wouldn’t mean special treatment.“I personally have a liability for doing that and any action that’s taken as a result of [granting a volunteer allowances to carry a weapon],” Day said. “So it’s certainly not something I take lightly and absolutely not something I’m interested in selling.”The Yuma County Sheriff's Office has 24 employees, according to its website. The eastern Colorado county has a population of about 10,000. Requests for comment made to Mider Monday were not returned.Denver7's Lance Hernandez contributed to this story. 7856

Dear Class of 2020: You are graduating into one of the worst economies in history. But this isn’t news to you. Many of you have already felt the impact, with summer internships and full-time job offers pulled out from under you as the depth and duration of the coronavirus pandemic truly sets in.As a product of the last recession, I’m here to tell you that all is not lost. You will eventually land a job. It might not be in your field, but if you’re scrappy and creative, you will get there.My path looked like this: A call center job (to pay the bills), plus a freelance writing gig (to build my resume), then graduate school (to expand my network) followed by a temporary job with a textbook company (again, to pay the bills). Then, finally, a reporting internship that turned into my first full-time journalism job.Your path may not look like mine or your parents’ or your classmates’, and it will likely look different from what you planned. These tips from career coaches can help you stand out from the other newly minted associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degree holders — not to mention the over 40 million newly unemployed workers.Beef up your LinkedIn profile“You don’t have as much face-to-face opportunity, so it’s important to optimize online visibility,” says Debra Rodenbaugh-Schaub, a career services consultant at the Alumni Association of Kansas State University.The place to do that: LinkedIn.The professional networking platform is heavily trafficked by recruiters and hiring managers, making it crucial to put your best foot forward.Amp up your profile with links to websites you’ve created, articles you’ve written or presentations you’ve given. You can even upload recordings to highlight public-speaking skills.Look at profiles of people who are leaders in the industry you’re targeting to get inspiration for what to highlight and how to present yourself in your own profile.Network virtuallySocial distancing hasn’t killed networking; it’s just made it virtual.The usual players — trade organizations, alumni groups and professional organizations — are all still meeting via webinars and video conferencing.Moving online can make networking less intimidating for newbies. You can ease into building connections, absorbing information and building the confidence to eventually become a more active participant.You can, and should, also make meaningful one-on-one connections. Not doing so will put you at a distinct disadvantage, since jobs are often filled via an employee referral.Lisa Kastor, director of career planning at the College of Wooster in Ohio, recommends building a “mentor map” with at least three mentors who can help guide you and make introductions.“I coach students to identify a person who has at least 10 years of experience, one that knows them well academically and one who knows them well professionally,” Kastor says. “Start with who [you] know, articulate what [you] want and always ask for the recommendation of two more people to reach out to.”Tailor your resumeUnderstand what a company is looking for in a candidate. Then, customize your resume and cover letter to that specific job posting. This is an important step under normal circumstances but it is critical now, as the economic upheaval of the pandemic has increased competition for available jobs.“Don’t be self-defeating and copy and paste the same thing into 100 job applications. That is not the right approach.” Rodenbaugh-Schaub says.Avoid simply listing skills or tasks. Instead, give them context. Highlight how your experience and actions delivered measurable outcomes.Tailoring your resume also means including keywords or phrases from the job posting, since companies use software to sift through the initial barrage of applicants.Consider alternative career paths“COVID-19 is unlike anything we have seen, so you have to be flexible,” says Glenn Hellenga, director of career and employability resources at Tri-County Technical College in South Carolina.That might mean working in a short-term contract role in your field or accepting a job that is completely outside your career path. After all, you’ve got bills to pay.Taking a detour doesn’t mean abandoning your goals entirely. Instead, find opportunities to develop the tools you’ll need for your dream job. Pick up freelancing gigs, find volunteer opportunities and proactively seek out projects wherever you land.“You can show that you’ve been actively pursuing, enhancing and honing your skills,” Rodenbaugh-Schaub says. “Employers love that.”This article was written by NerdWallet and was originally published by The Associated Press.Kelsey Sheehy is a writer at NerdWallet.

DENVER — In the wake of the Black Lives Matter Movement and calls to end systemic racism, many have called on white people to call out discrimination and harassment. A Denver woman says she did just that when she recorded a white woman following and questioning a Black man in a neighborhood near Cranmer Park.Beth, who did not want to be identified by her last name, said she recorded the interaction on Sunday evening and shared it on social media. The video has been viewed thousands of times.The video shows a white woman trailing a Black man walking in a Denver-area neighborhood and asking him questions about a picture. The man asked the woman why she was interrogating him, and the woman later loses her temper."You f**khead, get out of here," the woman said.At one point, Beth interjected and told the woman to leave the man alone."He's not bothering you," she said.Beth said the woman was harassing the man, which is why she recorded the encounter."I just want people to know that it's happening," Beth said. "I don't want people to have an excuse for ignorance anymore. Racism is still real, it's still everywhere, and I'm a white person with a camera, so when I see it, I have to call it out."The woman in the video did not wish to give an interview on camera or be identified, but she told Scripps station KMGH in Denver that she saw the man take several pictures of her home, and was worried they could be used for a crime. When asked if she would have reacted differently if a white person were taking photos, the woman said race didn't play a role in her questioning. She said she just wanted to know why the man took pictures of her home.During the confrontation, the man began to walk away, but the woman continued to follow him. He finally told the woman that he did not want to talk with her and said, "Have a nice day."Neighborhood resident Matt Tedeschi has lived in the area most of his life and walks his dog in the area."(I'm) shocked that not everyone is as accepting as they should be, just for someone walking down the street and question them when they have no right to question them like that," Tedeschi said.The woman in the video claims she had every right to question why the man took pictures of her home. Beth argued that it's a beautiful neighborhood and that photos are common."He is in a public space, he took a picture; people do that all the time," Beth said. "It's a movement right now where we need to prove that Black people are harassed for no good reason. It's a time where we need to have evidence to back up what we are saying."Beth said she spoke with the man after the encounter, and he asked her if he was close to Trader Joe's. She asked if he was OK.She said he told her, "I'm OK. It happens a lot."KMGH is working to identify and contact the man in the video.This story was originally published by Adi Guajardo on KMGH in Denver. 2890

Data and images gathered by Harvard University research indicate that several hospitals in Wuhan Province, China, which was the early epicenter of the coronavirus, began seeing an increase in traffic as early as last August.The Harvard researchers stressed that the data cannot be conclusively linked to the spread of coronavirus. But the study’s authors said that the research supports its hypothesis that the virus originated before being identified last December.The researchers used satellite images from hospitals in addition to search engine data to back its study. The images showed an increase in hospital traffic while search engines showed an uptick in inquiries of coronavirus-related symptoms.The research noted that there are seasonal changes in online searches for “cough,” there was also a subsequent jump in searches for “diarrhea,” which the researchers said is a more coronavirus-specific search term. The authors said both search query terms show a large increase approximately 3 weeks preceding the large spike of confirmed COVID-19 cases.“Our retrospective analysis cannot verify if increased hospital and search engine volume is related to the SARS-CoV-2 virus,” the authors wrote. SARS-CoV-2 is the strain of the novel coronavirus. "While alternative explanations such as the 2019 Military World Games in Wuhan may explain some increases in parking lot traffic, this event opened on October 18, 2019, weeks after the initial rise in Baidu search engine traffic.“Still, further research is needed to validate the emergence of SARS-CoV-2. This study adds to a growing body of work on the value of digital sources as an early indicator of a disease outbreak in the context of limited integrated electronic surveillance data.”To read the full study, click here. 1788
