Moon rock back in state's possession
GOLDEN, Colo. — Colorado's once miss moon rock is about to go on public display.
Gov. Bill Ritter and Colorado
School of Mines president Bill Scoggins will unveil the rock Wednesday at the school in Golden, its new home.
The Nixon administration gave former Colorado Gov. John Vanderhoof the rock in 1974. It was a piece of moon rubble from the Apollo 17 mission and all 50 states and more than 130 foreign countries received samples.
Many have turned up missing and some student researchers have been trying to track them down. In June, Vanderhoof was questioned by a reporter and said he had the missing rock.
It will be on display starting Monday.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Two men arrested in Oregon for shoplifting during a "Shop With a Cop" event for school children initially thought it was a bad time for stealing — with more than 60 uniformed officers on scene.
But Portland Sgt. Pete Simpson says the two gave it some more thought and decided police would be distracted so it would be a good time to steal.

Figurines catalyst for political unrest
NEWARK, Ohio - The elephant and the donkey are going into hiding at an Ohio voting board.
A Libertarian candidate saw ceramic figurines of the Republican and Democratic symbols on the counter at the Licking County Board of Elections when he filed paperwork to run for county commissioner.
The animal figurines are now off the counter, but still in the office.
Board director Sue Penick says the panel has since heard from the Ohio Secretary of State's office. The state office recommended that the red, white and blue statuettes be kept out of sight, to avoid conflicts.
James Snedden Jr. says the display showed bias toward candidates for the two major parties. He filed a complaint with the board on Aug. 4.
