Beaumont Hotel History
Built in 1886 and opened in 1887 to attract gold and silver mine investors, this lovely old hotel (the only luxury hotel in Ouray) has welcomed such famous guests as U.S. Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Herbert Hoover, King Leopold of Belgium, Chipeta, widow of Ute Chief Ouray, French actress Sarah Bernhardt, American actress Angie Dickenson and (most recently) media megastar, Oprah Winfrey. It has served as the social and business hub of the community and is known as the 'Flagship of the San Juans'. The hotel sat empty for decades and was scheduled for demolition. Recent restorations modernized the entire structure to meet the needs of today's traveler while preserving the property's historical grandeur.

Ouray Ore House Bar & Grille
The restaurant is located in the old Melodrama Theatre of the hotel and has a historical mining theme. It offers freshly made, wholesome American-Style Cuisine including steaks, seafood, sandwiches, salads, nightly fresh fish specials, vegetarian choices, gluten-free options and as many locally-sourced ingredients as possible. You can choose from one of the Western Slope's largest wine selections with over 300 vintages from around the world.

Luella's Lounge
Located on the second floor of the hotel, the elegant wine and martini bar is named after the last known resident of the Beaumont Hotel before it was closed to the public for 39 years. Dubbed "Ouray's Best Kept Secret", it has a classy, exclusive, speakeasy type ambiance and is perfect for private parties. "The wine list is incredible", says Jennifer Leaver, one of the owners.

Beaumont Spa
The luxurious Spa on the third floor is located where the servants' quarters existed in the olden days and now you can see the mountaintops from every massage table, pedicure chair and even from the private hot tub in the sauna room.

Hazelnuts improve infant formula

2012-05-28

Athens, Ga. – Human breast milk is the best source of food for infants. University of Georgia researchers have found what may be a new second best—formula made from hazelnut oil. Casimir Akoh, a UGA distinguished research professor of food science and technology in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, developed a new nutrient based on hazelnut oil that better mimics the structure of mother's milk, which makes it better suited to nourish infants. The results of his study were published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry on May 23. "Human ...

Skp2 activates cancer-promoting, glucose-processing Akt

2012-05-28

HOUSTON –HER2 and its epidermal growth factor receptor cousins mobilize a specialized protein to activate a major player in cancer development and sugar metabolism, scientists report in the May 25 issue of Cell. This chain of events, the scientists found, promotes Herceptin resistance in breast cancer and activation of glucose metabolism (glycolysis), which cancer cells primarily rely on to fuel their growth and survive. Their research focused on Skp2 E3 ligase, a protein that binds to and tags other proteins with molecules called ubiquitins, in this case to activate ...

CSHL researchers solve structure of human protein critical for silencing genes

2012-05-28

Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. – In a study published in the journal Cell on May 24, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) scientists describe the three-dimensional atomic structure of a human protein bound to a piece of RNA that "guides" the protein's ability to silence genes. The protein, Argonaute-2, is a key player in RNA interference (RNAi), a powerful cellular phenomenon that has important roles in diverse biological processes, including an organism's development. "Detailed knowledge of the structure of human Argonaute-2 and the way it interacts with its RNA guides will ...

High-speed method to aid search for solar energy storage catalysts

2012-05-28

MADISON -- Eons ago, nature solved the problem of converting solar energy to fuels by inventing the process of photosynthesis. Plants convert sunlight to chemical energy in the form of biomass, while releasing oxygen as an environmentally benign byproduct. Devising a similar process by which solar energy could be captured and stored for use in vehicles or at night is a major focus of modern solar energy research. "It is widely recognized that solar energy is the most abundant source of energy on the planet," explains University of Wisconsin-Madison chemistry professor ...

Most occupational injury and illness costs are paid by the government and private payers

2012-05-28

(SACRAMENTO, Calif.) — UC Davis researchers have found that workers' compensation insurance is not used nearly as much as it should be to cover the nation's multi-billion dollar price tag for workplace illnesses and injuries. Instead, almost 80 percent of these costs are paid by employer-provided health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and other disability funds, employees and other payers. Authors of the study, published in the April issue of the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, said this cost shifting leads to artificially low workers' ...
