It happened at our lady of guadalupe in conejos in the san luis valley. The parish was founded 162 years he ago and the church was videoed in our spanish Heritage Church last october. The fire appears to have started in the back of the church added onto the building. There was another fire 90 years ago to the day at this church. Parishioners told us last fall the church means so much to them. Its just inspiring. Its inspiring and so thats how i look at our lady of Guadalupe Church here. Its a special church for everyone in the community. Special, incredibly beautiful. We dont have any information yet about how the fire started the Conejos CountySheriffs Office is investigating and the Colorado Bureau of investigation is helping in that investigation. A glorious day across colorado again today. Temperatures soared into the 60s again this afternoon. Meteorologist danielle grant is in the weather center. We like the warmup, the wind not so much.

Four of the estimated 500 oil and Gas Companies in colorado have told state regulators they cannot meet an april 1st deadline to comply with new safety rules. They require precautions like remote shutoff devices for wells and anchors to keep them from falling over during floods or if theyre within a government designated flood plain. Colorado oil and Gas Commission imposed the rules after the 2013 floods caused spills and 91,000 gallons of oil in polluted water. There were as many as 15 spills. Companies had until february to ask for a waiver for an extension the 1st of february. Peterson Energy Operating and pdc energy asked for more time to retrofit more than 200 wells, tanks and other facilities that they operate. The commission has not acted on those requests. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is out of the gop race for president finishing sixth in the primary last night. Carly fiorina finished behind christie in the seventh spot last night and dropped out as well. Experts say christie had trouble raising money and Building Support in the crowded republican field. With christie out political experts say Ohio Governor john kasich and former Florida Governor jeb bush will be in stronger positions right now to cut down on front runner Donald Trumps lead. Trump and democrat Bernie Sanders both won by double digit digit digits last night. One of the biggest surprises was the distant second spot in jeb bush came in third and is expected to have a better showing in South Carolina on february 20th , also the day when democrats have their third primary in nevada. Candidates on both sides have been reacting to the final numbers from last night. I knew we were going to do well there and i guess did even better than anticipated. I was the only one with a really positive message. Together we have sent a message that will echo from wall street to washington. Its not whether you get knocked down that matters. Its whether you get back up. Coming up later this half hour well talk to our political experts to get their thoughts on whats next and what to expect in South Carolina and nevada. Mardi gras is officially over in new orleans, but crews are still cleaning it all up. City and state police say they cleared the crowds this morning, but now cleaning crews are working overtime. Look at the mess. To keep everyone safe worked really well. Incredibly they sophisticated 30 guns over 12 days while patrolling on or near parade routes. In january the Citys Department of sanitation held a job fair to recruit 150 temporary workers to help with mardi gras cleanup efforts. The white house says it will support an emergency bill that would spend 765 million to help solve the water crisis in flint, michigan. The tap water was contaminated with lead after the source was switched from detroit to the Pleasant River in 2014. It was meant to be a cost cutting move as the city was under state financial management. Democratic u. S. Representative dan kilde of michigan says officials have discussed money for flint and a 1. 28 billion request to combat the zika virus. The centers for Disease Control says it has identified babies who died in brazil from microcephaly, the strongest link yet between the virus and birth defect. Pregnant women should avoid travel to central america, south america and the caribbean where the virus seems to be spreading the fastest. Today china announced its first case and officials in alabama confirmed the first case in that state as well. There is a map of other confirmed cases in the u. S. There have been at least 35 cases of zika in the u. S. From people who traveled to affected countries. People is spread through mosquito bites to most people. There are several cases where it mate have also spread through sexual may have also spread through sexual contract. Electronic cigarettes or vaporizers pledge to be safer than cigarettes or tobacco, but a teenager was badly burned last month after the lithium battery inside his e cigarette blew up in his pants pocket. With against the battery causing the entire device to blow up. He was treated for second and third degree burns on his upper right leg and stomach. Doctors say explosions like this are happening more frequently as more people vape. There appears to be some sort of connection with either rechargeable batteries having been overcharged or some moisture that gets into the casing and then it causes an explosion. In the past 12 months doctors in the burn center at university of colorado hospital have treated six patients from severe burns from exploding e cigarettes. This story just boggles the mind. They have just discovered hundreds of new galaxies in space just past our galaxy, the milky way. Scientists from australia, south africa, the United States and netherlands used radio telescopes to cut through the haze of the milky way. The dust of our galaxy obstructs our view of deep hard to see distant ones shining through regular telescopes. So sciences used radio waves telescopes to explore this previously unobserved area. Weve known for a long time the milky galaxy like other galaxies has attracted Gravitational Waves by some mass in that particular direction and for a long time nobody knew what that mass is and so this could potentially help answer that question, what is this great attractor . Could it be these galaxies . Again most of the newly discovered galaxies are located in a previous dark or unexplored region of space. They are about 250 million light years from earth which scientists consider close in cosmic terms. A team of Scientists Say this is the first step to discover how big the galaxies are out there and what role they play with our milky way. Are they like revolving around each other like our planets resolve around our son . Its going to answer all sun . Questions about previous dark places. Big discovery.

Hes got a fan for his hair. Hes got decorator pillows. He is going to look good over there. The beyonce fans, come on. Hell love that. All right. We are starting to see some big shakeups from just a week ago in the primaries. So much going on. Coming up our political experts will join us and give us their take on the races. As we head to break, well accidents and injuries are the topic for our lawline 9 this afternoon. Look at this, two people sitting there without a phone call. This is your opportunity to jump in. This never happens. Am i right . Here it goes. Tomorrows are here from the denver bar association. This is free, ladies and gentlemen. The number, 3036980999. How often do you get to talk to an attorney for no fee at all . The lines are open until 5 30 there we go. Okay. Never happens. Very rarely. Oh, the line just went. He hung up, good to go. Now were going to talk a little more and try and keep the lines open with our political experts as we talk about the february 20th primaries, republicans in South Carolina. On the democratic side james mejia and on the republican side kelly maher. The question is he one and done or in the race . I think kasich has to look to nevada and see what happens there, see if he has really gotten any momentum because New Hampshire is kind of an odd place. I did, however, appreciate out of New Hampshire the massive, massive win of our friend Bernie Sanders. That was really exciting for me for a host of reasons. That brings us to this. This during the commercial break. I mean Bernie Sanders won by a much larger margin unanimous expected. The Clinton Campaign is in behind the scenes probably freakout mode. Theyvhired new strategists. They have to be really concerned. Listen, they expected to lose New Hampshire, neighboring vermont, sanders has been there, a mayor serving as senator for many, many years, they expected to lose, did not expect to lose this big. If she could have come even within Single Digits, that would have been a major victory for her to stay that close. Nevada could be touch and go, too, for her . She should do much better in South Carolina where the African American vote makes up about half of the democratic electorate and in nevada the latino vote is substantial and could sway that vote. She is polling about 31 in both those communities in both two Better Outcomes for clinton. Kelly, donald trump doing very well. Does he march through the south like New Hampshire . What do you think . Potentially donald trump has been i think a surprise for everybody, but when it comes to Bernie Sanders, i think its really important to note that yesterday Hillary Clinton lost every single income segment under 200,000. And donald trump won all of those categories. He won all of those and he did really well and frankly, the fact that he has a lot of anger and hes expressing it continuously is it really something that is playing with voters who are frustrated with the course of the country right now. Take your shot. They are a little concerned. Take your shot at what you think the republicans are a little worried about at this point . Oh, i think the republicans are way more worried about trump than the democrats are. We would love to run against donald trump. He wants to kick people out of the country for religious or well for the republicans. So i think theyre more worried about donald trump winning the nomination than democrats are. How long do you give ben carson . Not very long. One or two more primaries but to not even break double digits in New Hampshire, i dont think South Carolina will be kind to him. I dont think nevada will be particularly kind to him. Hes got more staying power than fiorina and christie obviously did but not much more. Rubio a little worried . Yes. Marco rubio finished fifth, wasnt it . Yes. He actually went to twitter and apologized for his debate responses. So thats going to be a good question, but i think the real story yesterday is the fact that mels really looked at Hillary Clinton pointing at her and saying hey, the empress doesnt have a pants suit. I want to know about michael bloomberg. Is he going to jump in . Has he become the spoiler . I think hes still on the fence, isnt he . He is definitely considering it. I think he has till super tuesday to decide, first deadlines come in after that. Hell wait to see if clinton can win or its heading that direction. If she gets in, i dont think he gets in, but i think he would be a welcome addition to the party for republicans who view him as a big city mayor and many voters would break for him if they arent satisfied with the democrat. Yeah. And another millionaire, another new york millionaire. We need another one of those. We dont have enough of those going around. Hell run as an independent . Thats what im hearing. I think the fact that msnbc finally talked about the fact that Hillary Clinton is being investigated by the fbi is making probably the saddest guy in politics right now joe biden because you know he is wishing that he took that shot. I think if it continues out how to take her entire machine and put it behind him. I think that could be fun. Love it when you guys come in and sort in out for us. Theres so much to talk about in the next couple weeks. A lot more shifts, more people to drop out. Thank you both very much as always. If youre trying to fight off a cold with vitamin c, might not do as much good as youd like. Despite popular sentiment next when it is most effective to take vitamin c and what to walgreens is taking steps to try and help prevent deaths from heroin overdoses and that means coloradans will soon be able to buy maloxalone that comes in nasal or spray form insurance plans. It will be 78 per dose under the walgreens savings plan. Walgreens will have kiosks where people can safely dispose of their unwanted, unused or expired prescription drugs. Americans spent over 1 billion on vitamin c supplements alone and it may seem like a good idea to take a boost of vitamin c when you have a cold. I do that all the time, but experts at Consumer Reports are saying that could be a big mistake. The common cold can leave you sniffling, sneezing and aching a week or longer. While you might be tempted to try anything to feel better sooner, think twice before loading up on vitamin c supplements. Chances are youre already too late. There is some evidence that shows that taking a vitamin c supplement on a regular basis while youre still healthy might shorten your cold by a day or, so but taking a vitamin already sick wont really help. And taking vitamin c supplements wont prevent a cold in the first place according to the National Institutes of health. Taking high doses of vitamin c can also cause other health problems. For example, studies have shown that men who take excessive amounts are twice as likely to develop kidney stones and consuming more than 2,000 milligrams of vitamin c a day can cause an upset stomach and painful cramps. In general the nih recommends 90 milligrams per day per men and 75 milligrams a day for women for maintaining good health. Thats about the equivalent of a single orange. The best way to get the vitamin c yo
