The Denver Police Department will be taking on a set of violent crime cold cases, including eight sexual assaults and 64 homicides, thanks to a $500,000 grant from the National Institute of Justice.

Lt. Matt Clark with the major crimes division, said Denver Police has been the recipient of multiple grants for cold cases, including one in 2004 which helped to launch the unit.

According to a news release from the Denver District Attorney, the $500,000 grant is the department’s third from the National Institute of Justice, bringing its grant total to more than $1 million.

The grant will be split between DPD, its Crime Lab and the District Attorney’s office. The police and crime lab will use the funds to pay overtime costs for officers working on cases. The DA will use the funds to add a prosecutor to its cold case unit.

The grant was announced in October.

“These violent crime cold cases are among the most challenging of all cold cases,” said Denver District Attorney Beth McCann in the news release. “The potential for more than 70 families to see justice is powerful SEE COLD CASES, P7

Building potential on Arkansas Avenue Project will add residential, retail space and a new park

BY KAILYN LAMB KLAMB@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The former 13-acre campus for the Colorado Department of Transportation is the latest parcel in south Denver slated for redevelopment after city council approved a tax package and voted to blight the property last month.

CDOT left the campus for its new location in west Denver in 2018. The city bought the property in the hopes of flipping it for a developer, said Paul Kashmann, councilmember representing District 6, which includes Virginia Village. Since then, the city has been working with Dever-based Kentro Group to create a new development plan.

Blighting a property means the city can put an urban renewal plan in place. The plan can help them bring in tax dollars to incentivize developers to build there.

Kashmann and the council have been working with Kentro on the development for over a year. Last December, city council voted to rezone the property to allow for up to eight stories.

At the time, Kashmann was opposed to the zoning of the project, worrying it would bring density and traffic that the surrounding streets couldn’t handle. Since the property had a campus zoning, Kentro at the time could have built up to 12 stories, but requested to down zone. Kashmann said it put council in a hard place: it was either approve the down zoning, or allow Kentro to build up to 12 stories with no public process in a use-byright development project.

“We need to take as much care as possible to do it the right way,” he said. Council should look at “building something that enhances the commu-

Tim Carl, the president of the Virginia Village Neighborhood Association, said the group recently launched their own website to help give the community updates on a number of projects, including the former CDOT campus. Go to vvecaneighborhood. com for more information. nity but does not overwhelm it with traffic.”

Now, after working out some of those details, the newest development plan for the CDOT campus, located at 4201 E. Arkansas Ave., will include 840 apartments and condos – including 150 affordable housing units, retail space, through streets to connect the project to the surrounding neighborhood, a 1-acre park and a new location for the Denver Police Department.

In return, the city is offering tax increment financing, or a TIF package, of around $24 million to Kentro to help build the project.

Chris Viscardi, the director of development with Kentro, said in an email that since the TIF package is in place, Kentro can begin working on design and continue working with the City of Denver through its development process. He estimated that construction on the whole project could begin within 18 to 24 months.

Viscardi is also hopeful to get approval from the Colorado Housing Finance Authority to start on the affordable units. If that process goes well, that portion of the project could be under construction in 12 to 15 months.

Getting the word out The affordable units were a firm requirement from the city in the negotiating process, Kashmann said. Viscardi said open space was frequently mentioned by community members as

COURTESY OF THE KENTRO GROUP a top desire for the property.

He added that all the meeting information from Kentro, as well as community feedback can be found on the project website. Viscardi said the company will continue to do outreach with neighbors throughout the final design and building process as well.

“We are all Denverites and know the importance of fully engaging with a passionate and proud neighborhood, such as Virginia Village, to help shape the development,” he said. “Neighbors provided critical input to dictate how the project plans look today.”

But for Florence Sebern, a Virginia Village resident and member of its Registered Neighborhood Organization, she wanted more out of Kentro.

Because Kentro held their own meetings rather than organizing a time to speak to the RNO, Sebern said it put them in control. The process hasn’t felt like an open conversation, she said.

Through her research into this project, Sebern said she was also surprised to learn how much of development projects were subsidized through other funding avenues rather than the developers themselves.

Tim Carl, the president of the Virginia Village RNO, said he has also been frustrated by the process, but wants to continue to be a voice at the table for neighborhood residents.

When a property is blighted by the city, for example, that can have repercussions on adjacent property values.

It’s the role of the RNO to help other residents understand that.

“From a neighborhood standpoint, that’s significant,” he said. “Whether we all agree or disagree with what’s going to transpire, we want to at least be able to message that to the surrounding community.”

Now that some of the details on the project have been worked out, Kashmann said he is interested in the potential of the new project. As a former government property, it

WHAT IS A TIF? TIF, or tax increment finance, is a tax package put together by cities in order to incentivize developers into working on projects. Future taxes from a defined area, in this case the former CDOT campus, will be diverted toward creating the project.

City Councilmember Paul Kashmann said that Kentro Group, the developer working on the project, does not automatically get the money. The company is working with the Denver Urban Renewal Authority and has to prove that it has met certain build goals in order for the funds to be released.

Denver City Council last month voted to approve nearly $24 million in a TIF package for the development project, which is less than a block off of Colorado Boulevard and goes from Arkansas Avenue to Louisiana Avenue, and over to Birch Street. wasn’t bringing in tax dollars. Now, the 13-acre site will can contribute not only in tax money, but as a functioning neighborhood where people can shop and eat where they live, he said.

Kashmann himself lives a half-block off of Louisiana Avenue, close to the project. “I’ll live with this the rest of my life,” he said.

“I have an investment in my role as a councilman, and then I also have a selfish investment as a resident,” he said. “I’m going to do everything possible to see that this gets done right.”

Although Kentro has not done any residential projects in the past, this project presents a lot of new opportunities. Viscardi said that Kentro means center in Greek, referring to a community gathering place.

“The sheer size of the former CDOT property creates an opportunity to design a mixed-use community from the ground up,” he said. “There is a major shift with how people live, travel and shop, and the project is an opportunity to grab onto those trends and build something forward-thinking and synergetic.”

Denver students could get new language option Proposed DPS charter school would have focus on teaching French

BY KAILYN LAMB KLAMB@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

For Tara Bardeen and Angela Strange, learning a second language while in school had a profound impact on their lives. Now, as parents themselves, they’re pushing to open a new charter program through Denver Public Schools that will teach its curriculum in French.

Strange said learning a language was one of the most important things she ever did. “It opened up the door for me to do so many different things,” she added, saying that the group of parents working to put together the French American School in the City Park neighborhood want to provide Denver students with the same advantage.

As the refugee population has started to rise in Denver, the city began to draw a large number of people from West Africa, which speaks French as its first language, Bardeen said. She added that there are an estimated 20,000 French-speaking people in Denver. Although many schools have immersion programs for Mandarin and Spanish, options for French-speaking

Members of the French American School Denver founding team pose with DPS Board of Education members and the Associate Chief of Portfolio Management shortly after an unanimous vote approved the charter school application on August 22, 2019. The group is hoping to open for the 2020-2021 school year if they meet enrollment goals set by the district.

COURTESY OF FRENCH AMERICAN SCHOOL DENVER parents are more limited.

This can be problematic for parents trying to help their children with

school work. Multilingual options help allow those parents to be “able to participate in their child’s education,”

Bardeen said. Without that, they’re left without a voice.

“We wanted to really make our case to DPS that this is a community that is lacking in education opportunities,” Strange said. “As an international city we owe our Denverites, and anyone else who’s coming here, the opportunity to do this.”

The French American School would follow basic curriculum requirements from the state of Colorado, but with an added emphasis on French. Students in kindergarten through second grade would be taught 90% of the time in English. It would then move down to 70% for students in grades 3-5, and finally it would be 50/50 for students in grades 6-8, Bardeen said.

Parents have already gone through the approval process through DPS for its curriculum, and a location was recently approved at 1580 N. Gaylord St. in the Church in the City building.

In order to launch for the 2020-2021 school year, Bardeen said the French American School needs to prove it has 80% of its target enrollment number, or 179 students.

Going through the approval process was long for Strange, Bardeen and the rest of the parents putting the program together. Bardeen said that all of the parents were doing the work on a volunteer basis and using their own money to fund the work.

Researchers: Some pet products touted as CBD don’t have any ‘Wild West’ status reflects lack of federal standards for increasingly popular material

BY MARY ESCH ASSOCIATED PRESS

Companies have unleashed hundreds of CBD pet health products accompanied by glowing customer testimonials claiming the cannabis derivative produced calmer, quieter and pain-free dogs and cats.

But some of these products are all bark and no bite.

“You’d be astounded by the analysis we’ve seen of products on the shelf with virtually no CBD in them,” said Cornell University veterinary researcher Joseph Wakshlag, who studies therapeutic uses for the compound. “Or products with 2 milligrams per milliliter, when an effective concentration would be between 25 and 75 milligrams per milliliter. There are plenty of folks looking to make a dollar rather than produce anything that’s really beneficial.”

Such products can make it to the shelves because the federal government has yet to establish standards for CBD that will help people know whether it works for their pets and how much to give.

Still, there’s lots of individual

Products for people were swiftly followed by CBD chewies, oils and sprays for pets.

“The growth is more rapid than I’ve seen for any product in 20 years in this business,” said Bill Bookout, president of the National Animal Supplement Council, an industry group whose member companies agree to testing and data-gathering requirements. “There’s a gold rush going on now. Probably 95 percent of the industry participants are responsible, but what’s dangerous is the fly-by-night operative that wants to cash in.”

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is developing regulations for marketing CBD products, for pets or people. This year, it has sent warning letters to 22 companies citing violations such as making claims about therapeutic uses and treatment of disease in humans or animals or marketing CBD as a dietary supplement or food ingredient.

“It’s really the Wild West out there,” said S. David Moche, founder of Applied Basic Science, a company formed to support Colorado State University’s veterinary CBD research and now selling CBD online.

He advises consumers to look for a certificate of analysis from a thirdparty testing laboratory to ensure

they’re getting what they pay for.

“Testing and labeling is going to be a critical part of the future of this industry,” Moche said.

Wakshlag said products must be tested not only for CBD level, but also to ensure they’re free of toxic contaminants such as heavy metals and pesticides and have only trace amounts of THC, which in higher levels is toxic to dogs.

Bookout said his organization has recorded very few health incidents involving CBD and no deaths.

Still, scientific documentation of CBD’s safety and efficacy is nearly nonexistent.

That’s starting to change, however. A small clinical trial at Colorado State University published in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association in June found CBD oil reduced seizure frequency in 89 percent of the epileptic dogs that received it.

A clinical study headed by Wakshlag at Cornell, published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science in July 2018, found CBD oil helped increase comfort and activity in dogs with osteoarthritis.

Study moving forward Stephanie McGrath, a Colorado State University researcher, is now doing a larger clinical trial funded by the American Kennel Club’s Canine Health Foundation.

“The results of our first epilepsy study were promising, but there was certainly not enough data to say CBD is the new miracle anti-convulsive drug in dogs,” McGrath said.

Seizures are a natural focus for research on veterinary CBD products, since Epidiolex, the only FDA-approved drug containing cannabidiol, was approved last year for treatment of two severe forms of epilepsy in children. Veterinarians are allowed to prescribe Epidiolex for pets, but it’s prohibitively expensive — upwards of $30,000 a year for an average-size dog, McGrath said.

The Kennel Club’s chief veterinary officer, Jerry Klein, said CBD is “over-hyped” but promising for treatments like pain relief. He’s hopeful that the growing market will result in more money being invested in research to prove uses.

Meantime, the American Veterinary Medical Association is telling veterinarians they can share what they know about CBD with clients but shouldn’t prescribe or recommend it until the FDA gives its blessing.

“There’s no question there’s veterinary interest in these products as therapies, but we really want to see the manufacturers demonstrate that they’re effective and safe and get FDA approval so we can have confidence in the products,” said Gail Golab, chief veterinary officer for the association.

Colorado Competitive Council names new director Lauren Masias comes from Denver South Economic Development Partnership STAFF REPORT

Lauren Masias has been named the new director for the Colorado Competitive Council — known as C3 — according to a news release.

Masias, a Colorado native, most recently served as managing director of stakeholder engagement for the Denver South Economic Development Partnership. She has experience in economic development, stakeholder engagement, Masias public policy and transportation.

Masias will manage all aspects of C3, including financial oversight, investor relations, steering committee engagement and advocacy strategy.

“Lauren has a strong knowledge of how policy affects the business community and employers’ ability

to put Coloradans to work in good jobs,” Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Kelly Brough said in the news release. “We are excited to have Lauren join the chamber family and lead C3’s efforts to preserve and enhance the competitive business climate in Colorado.”

Founded in 2005 as an affiliate of the Denver Metro Chamber, C3 develops policy solutions that benefit Colorado businesses and ensures that the state continues to be competitive locally and globally, the news release said. With reach across the state, C3 investors and steering committee members collaborate to amplify the voice of the business community at the Capitol and on the ballot. The organization has more than 60 steering committee members who represent business interests across the state, along with 35 business investors who drive C3’s advocacy positions.

In her most recent role with the Denver South Economic Development Partnership, Masias focused on creating corporate and community strategic alliances. She also coordinated events, including the partnership’s Bike to Work Day activities. Before joining the partner-

ship, Masias worked in the regional marketing office for Chrysler Motors and at various nonprofits.

“I look forward to further developing the successful platforms that C3 has created. I’ll focus on the expansion and development of new initiatives to increase membership and continue to build on the collaborative approach that has been developed with our current partners. I’m very excited to bring my experience to effectively strengthen the relationships with our strategic partners, elected offices and business leaders from around the state to grow Colorado’s strong economy,” Masias said in the release.

Masias serves on the Young Professional Board of Directors for Project C.U.R.E., which distributed donated medical equipment and supplies around the world. She received her bachelor of science in mass communications from Colorado State University-Pueblo. She is an avid skier and enjoys playing a competitive game of tennis when she’s not running in Washington Park with her Wheaten terrier.

Masias succeeds Nick Colglazier, who stepped down as C3 director in December.

“There’s a lot of things that go into creating a school,” Strange said. “As one door closes, a little mouse door opens.”

The French American School would be a choice-in school, which would allow students from all over Denver to apply for the program.

This was an important element for all the parents building the program. Strange said the point was to bring the academic advantages of knowing a second language to all of Denver.

But there is only one public school option with French, the Denver Language School, which Strange said always has a waitlist, even though the school opened a second campus.

The other option is private school.

“Most of the families that want an immersion option,” Strange said, “they’re either going to pay 20 grand per kid, or they’re going to be on a wait list.”

Bardeen said that talent comes from all areas of Denver. Which was why they wanted to make the school open to all. Busing has already been added to the budget so that parents also wouldn’t have to worry about how their kids would get to school.

“We’re all about equity and accessibility,” Bardeen said. “It makes me so happy every day to say that this school is tuition-free. You can just come and these benefits are for you.”

Periodic fasting gains followers Diet trend calls for long periods without food, despite lack of evidence of benefits

BY CANDICE CHOI ASSOCIATED PRESS

A diet that forbids eating for hours on end might seem doomed in a culture where food is constantly available, but apps and Facebook groups are popping up for people practicing “intermittent fasting.”

Bri Wyatt, a 32-year-old Tennessee resident, tried it last summer.

“At first I was like, there’s no way,” she said.

But after reading more about it, she thought it might not be that hard.

She started by skipping breakfast and nighttime snacks, and later moved on to a 60-day challenge of fasting every other day.

Melissa Breaux Bankston, a Crossfit instructor in New Orleans, Louisiana, also tried intermittent fasting as a way to curb her snacking. “I wanted to limit the amount of time that I was eating,” she said.

Studies on the potential health benefits of intermittent fasting are still limited, including for its effectiveness with weight loss. But many are wondering whether it could help them get

‘It’s really another way of fooling your body into eating less calories.’

“There’s no one size fits all,” she said.

Fasting on trial Obesity experts have become interested in intermittent fasting, but studies on the diet are still emerging.

For now, limited research suggests it may not be any better for weight loss than conventional calorie-cutting over the long term.

“Unfortunately, intermittent fasting gets a little hyped,” said Courtney Peterson, who studies the diet at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

Still, some fasting approaches may be more effective than others. And Peterson notes the difficulty of designing studies that definitively capture a diet’s effects. That’s in part because so many other variables could be at play.

For instance, researchers are looking at whether any benefits of intermittent fasting might be tied to when the eating period falls and fluctuations in how well our bodies process food throughout the day.

Some health experts say intermittent fasting might be too difficult for many people. They point to a study of 100 people where those placed in the alternate-day fasting group lost around the same amount of weight as those on conventional calorie-restriction diets over time. But the fasting group had a dropout rate of 38%, compared with 29% for the conventional diet group.

But intermittent fasting may be easier than other diets for people who already skip meals when they’re too busy, said Varady of the University of Illinois at Chicago.

To make weight loss stick, she said people should pick diets that resemble how they already eat.

“Different diets do work for different people,” she said.

Mothers’ Milk Bank to open Baby Café in February STAFF REPORT

Pregnant and new mothers can learn about breastfeeding in a friendly and comfortable environment at the Mothers’ Milk Bank Baby Café, which will open Feb. 5 at the Jewish Community Center. The cafe will be launched with a party from 10 a.m. to noon.

In the Baby Café, mothers can drop in to relax, share tips and techniques, and socialize with other moms. Oneon-one help professional lactation support is provided for no charge by certified lactation specialists, and babies are weighed before and after feeding.

“Mothers’ Milk Bank Baby Café at the Jewish Community Center will offer a space where parents can come and get free breastfeeding guidance and support from a lactation specialist,” Abby Malman Case, international board-certified lactation consultant

and manager of donor relations at Mothers’ Milk Bank, said in a news release. “Lactation support can often be very expensive, and we want to help all parents meet their breastfeeding goals.”

The grand opening is open to the public and will offer refreshments, music for the infants, and a raffle.

The special event coincides with the week of Tu Bishvat. In the Jewish tradition, Tu Bishvat is the “new year of the trees” and it is customary to plant trees in celebration of this holiday. In the spirit of Tu Bishvat, the Jewish community will plant a tree and planting seeds will be available for guests to take home.

COLD CASES FROM PAGE 1

and exciting and possible thanks to this new funding.”

Even though this grant will focus on the prosecution of these cases, Clark said the police and crime lab are still an important component of that process. He added that it was this approach that helped them get the grant.

“It still takes this collaborative, kind of innovative approach where we have multi-disciplinary team of forensics, police and prosecutors,” he said.

Solving a cold case takes a mixture of police resources, new technology and sometimes a bit of luck. Clark said that a person involved with the case may no longer have ties to the offender and is willing to talk when they weren’t before. Those “dissolved relationships” sometimes make the case.

Although these added resources help officers to solve cases, finding evidence and notes that have been in storage – sometimes for decades – comes with its own set of hurdles. The passing of time is often something that hinders the investigation.

Tracking down the original team of officers and coroners that worked on a case is often difficult, Clark said.

If they are still alive, they have to remember and be willing to testify about details for the case.

“We are having to present cases in court in today’s standards to get convictions based on evidence collec-

A display case at the Denver Police Department Crime Lab shows old equipment used to look at forensic evidence such as microscopes and other memorabilia. The department, along with the Denver District Attorney’s office, recently received a $500,000 grant for investigating cold cases.

KAILYN LAMB tion standards and documentation standards of the ‘70s and ‘80s,” Clark said. “It’s not ever a knock on the detectives, they did the best they could at the time with what they had, but it’s just the reality of what we deal with.”

Sgt. Abel Salas with the cold case unit, said that even the way the cases are filed can be a challenge. Before computers, police hand wrote all their files and case notes, leaving officers to decipher handwriting on notepads and sticky notes.

Over time, grants have helped the unit to catalog thousands of cases, looking into which could potentially be solved and prosecuted. The unit

deals with sex crimes and homicide.

Clark said that the initial unit identified around 1,200 cases that could be solved and eventually prosecuted, 800 were sex crimes and 400 were homicides.

Cataloging the cases was only half the battle. Many of the cold cases were from the 1970s. Since then forensics and technology have advanced, helping police investigating the crimes to test biological evidence from offenders.

Police departments from across the nation also have access to DNA from cases. This can help officers compare their own cases to others. Clark said

one of the grants helped DPD with those investigations as well.

The department’s Crime Lab does all the forensic testing in their building at 1371 Cherokee St., which neighbors DPD headquarters. The Crime Lab building opened in 2012.

“We reached a critical milestone in 2017 when the Crime Lab finished testing of all cold case sexual assaults which was made possible in part thanks to earlier NIJ grants,” said Dr. Gregory LeBerge, Director of the Denver Crime Lab in the news release from the District Attorney’s office.

“That work resulted in six serial killers being identified and linked to cases across Colorado and the United States.”

New geneaology sites like 23 and Me and Ancestry have also aided in DNA testing for cold cases. Clark said that the DPD is looking into using that for its own cases.

Although cases solved are always a good thing, Clark said he recognizes that there will always be a void in the lives of the victim’s family. DPD uses its website to send out notices of anniversaries of crimes and to tell the victim’s story. While it can sometimes generate leads, Clark said it also lets people know that DPD hasn’t stopped working on the case.

“When the new technology comes, we embrace it, and we look at it as a way to generate leads and move these cases forward,” Clark said. “There’s a tremendous satisfaction when we can close a case. It demonstrates to the community that we don’t give up on these.”

Maybe syllables governed the world in the 17th century, but lately they have been treated with impudence and disrespect in the name of convenience.

There are those who think as Selden QUIET did and quite a few of DESPERATION them are within the sound of my voice: namely the “Quiet Desperation” readers who entered my annual haiku contest.

This column highlights some of the best entries.

While I encouraged a wide range of Craig Marshall themes, the majorSmith ity of the haiku I received focused on the new year, and it was understandable. Last year was not Miss America, particularly in the final weeks during the impeachment hearings.

Then, guess what? The new year starts off with a bang, as it were, in Iran

Violent alpine overthrow / A very high coup.”

Michael Collier, Lafayette, California: “Risky investments / The dog was chasing its tail / Calm 2020.”

In case you are wondering: “The usual way to refer to years is to pronounce the first two digits together as one number, and the second two together as another number (pearsonlongman.com)”; therefore, 2020 (twenty-twenty) equals four syllables.

Andrea Corbo, Highlands Ranch: “This lame haiku is / My quiet desperation / Written just for you.”

The words “quiet desperation” are attributed to Henry David Thoreau and they were appropriated by Pink Floyd.

Sharene Schmalz, Cincinnati: “Ravage destruction / Oh, when will it ever end? / Let it be this year.”

Looks like we may have to wait, Sharene.

Ed Billingsly, Parker: “Complimentary / Dazzling necktie, red and green / Complementary.”

Douglass Croot said his mother-in-law was an English major who was fond of saying, “Hooray, hooray, the first of May. Outdoor necking begins today.”

He added, “She has since passed away, but it is a family tradition to recite those words on the first of May each year.”

His entry gets a gold star because of the story that goes with it.

“The deliberate grammatical error is a tip of the cap to the English major who would probably share a wry smile if she were still with us.”

He wrote: “Warm day. June the first. / Bright, blazing sun. Sure is hot. / But, it could be worst.”

Dale Stephens, Littleton, who celebrated his 72nd birthday on Dec. 25, wrote, “Time is worth your gold / I am in my elder years / Who sped up the clock?”

Brett Ganyard, an Aurora musicologist, entered: “Gary Rock and Rolled / Not all that Glitters is gold / Hey - tarnished repute.”

Gary Glitter’s 1972 hit “Rock and Roll Part II” is on the soundtrack of a film too dark even for a curmudgeon — “Joker.”

Domination through disruption opens huge opportunities

hen we look at some of the most recent and incredible success stories in business, sports, and artistic performance we are seeing a bit of a trend, aren’t we? What we are seeing are companies, teams, and individuals who are winning and winning big through disruption. They are doing WINNING things we never WORDS imagined possible and changing the conversations we are having with one another as we discuss their amazing feats.

and international tension is on high alert.

Seventeen-syllable poems might seem like butterflies in a tornado right now, but I think they are reminders of the sustenance in human creativity.

Please welcome Becky Bland and her family.

She wrote: “Des Moines, Iowa / Castle Rock, Colorado / We found a new home.”

Look at little “Iowa.” It uses up three syllables all by itself.

What are the longest one-syllable words? “Stretched,” “scrounged,” and “scratched.”

Leslie Stevens, Highlands Ranch, said her haiku was written for a ladies’ hiking group called the “Walkie-Talkies.”

“We walk and we talk / Challenged by the rocky trail / Exhausted, refreshed.”

Art Elser, Denver: “on our morning walk / a lone solitaire proclaimed / the winter solstice.”

Companies, teams, players, and artists who are dominating through disruption also do something else better than their competitors. While looking for breakthrough moments and ideas, they still focus on the fundamentals, the blocking and tackling if you will. Solid research that leads to structured planning and then doing the behaviors necessary to leverage the research and execute against the plan. Couple that with working on instinct when necessary and you have a recipe for disruptive success.

Holding fast to the fundamentals while looking for ways to be disruptive takes innovative leadership and a creative team that is committed to the tried-and-true fundamentals that serve as the foundation for success, yet curious enough to push the boundaries and norms to explore options that others may have missed or had never even considered.

Just visit any of the sites and search on disruption or disruptors, futurists, changing the conversation, and other similar tags and you will find some amazing thinking, disruptive thinking.

The kind of disruptive thinking that could lead to domination and success.

And what do I mean by domination?

Domination is not just for big companies, professional teams, or individual performers. Domination could be for every size company and for each one of us too. Dominating a local market by being a bit disruptive. Breaking a bad habit, through a disruptive and new or better habit. Dominating other poor practices that we follow and want to change by stretching the boundaries of our thinking. We all have the capacity to make new decisions based on new information, and maybe our input needs a dose of disruptive thinking.

Handcrafted jewelry store comes to Englewood Sarah DeAngelo Jewelry is now open on Girard Avenue

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Back in 2000, Sarah DeAngelo was running around a steakhouse in Beverly Hills taking food orders as a server. On impulse, DeAngelo quit her job after a customer was rude to her, and the next day, she started selling her handcrafted jewelry. At the time, she was going to school for occupational therapy, but once she saw the positive feedback from boutiques that were purchasing her jewelry, she saw the potential to make a career out of her creations.

“I never intended to become a jewelry artist, but life has a way of taking you places you didn’t expect,” said DeAngelo.

One of the places life has taken DeAngelo to is Englewood at 16 E. Girard Ave. where she has opened up Sarah DeAngelo Jewelry, a store that sells her handcrafted jewelry and other products such as candles, handmade cards, artwork and small pottery. Sarah DeAngelo Jewelry opened on Dec. 17, and DeAngelo is planning a grand opening celebration on Jan. 25.

DeAngelo, who went to metalsmith-

Where: 16 E. Girard Ave., Englewood When: Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. ing school at the Howard Academy of Metal Arts in Wisconsin, describes her jewelry as feminine with a Southwestern flair. She says she is inspired by the work of traditional Native American silversmiths and ancient jewelry from Africa, Europe and India. Her products include necklaces, earrings and bracelets.

This past year saw DeAngelo’s jewelry featured in the lifestyle retailer Sundance catalog and in over 50 stores across the country. She says her jewelry isn’t meant for special occasions, but rather for everyday tasks like going to the grocery store.

“My intent for my jewelry and for my new store is to help women feel beautiful. Not superficial beauty, but deep appreciation for the beauty within,” said DeAngelo. “As women, we feel so much pressure to be a certain way. It’s very easy to feel not good enough, not pretty enough, not thin enough (and) not woman enough.

I want my customers to feel like their jewelry is an extension of their own natural and unique beauty.”

David Carroll, executive director for the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce, said businesses like Sarah

JOSEPH RIOS DeAngelo Jewelry are an example of a rise in a “boutique mentality” that he’s seen in Englewood. He named Englewood businesses such as Sarah DeAngelo Jewelry, the Peace Cellar boutique and Sweet Caroline’s Confections, a customizable lollipop shop, as examples of retail spaces that are set up for success, even with the popularity of online shopping.

“They’re successful because they are more than just a store, they are

tastemakers,” said Carroll. The Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce advocates for Englewood businesses.

DeAngelo called Englewood the perfect spot for her business. She said she loves the vibe of the city, the historic buildings and the small-town feel Englewood has.

“We welcome (Sarah DeAngelo Jewelry), and we are happy (she) chose Englewood,” said Englewood Mayor Linda Olson in a statement.

Want to record a song?

Learn to sew? Try virtual reality? Head to the library!

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

I

t all started with a state parks pass.

Areli Alcazar, a teacher at Kenton Elementary School in Aurora, stopped by the Schlessman branch of Denver Public Library a couple years ago, where a librarian told her DPL checks out passes to Colorado State Parks.

Before long, Alcazar and her family were hitting the trails in Roxborough and Chatfield state parks for the first time, toting a library-provided knapsack filled with binoculars, field guides and other gear.

“The pass gave us an incentive to be adventurous,” Alcazar said.

When she dropped off the pass at the library, she asked what else the library had to offer. The answers are still unfolding, and Alcazar is hooked.

An avid biker, Alcazar uses the library’s bike repair kits. Her desk is scattered with keepsakes and doohickeys she’s 3D-printed at Denver library makerspaces. She learned to sew LED lights into clothing. She helped her mom test the efficiency of her home appliances with a power check meter.

She and her friends check out passes to local museums. Now, when she’s bored, Alcazar said she drops into a library and asks what they can teach her today.

“If it’s all at our disposal,” Alcazar said, “why not try it out?”

‘The sky’s the limit’ Across the Denver metro area, libraries are redefining themselves, with innovative offerings meant to expand minds and lives.

“When people say libraries are obsolete, we say, ‘Are they? Let’s find out,’ ” said Anthony White, the manager of web systems for Arapahoe Libraries, which operates eight branches in Arapahoe County.

The district now features three recording studios outfitted with green screen walls and video and audio editing software. The Koelbel branch has a 39-seat theater available for plays, films and performances. The Castlewood branch will reopen in April with a purpose-built makerspace, featuring 3D printers, laser cutters, a ceramic kiln and more — double the size of the old makerspace, housed in a repurposed conference room.

“We really want to explore all the roles a library can play in a community,” White said. “The sky’s the limit.”

For some, that can mean learning skills that are otherwise out of reach.

Emily Roberts, a university librarian herself, wanted to try working with wool.

CHECKING OUT

Arapahoe Libraries technology specialist Kate O’Brien plays a tune in Southglenn Library’s recording studio.

Colorado residents can get library cards for most of the state’s library districts for free. Most require a photo ID and proof of address.

The vast majority of library services, including state parks passes, museum passes, access to makerspaces and nontraditional items, are available for no charge. Some libraries may impose time or quantity limits on items like 3D printers that use consumable materials.

Numerous local library districts offer a wide array of services, including personalized book and movie recommendations, access to research databases, streaming movies and documentaries, classes, clubs and connections to other community services.

Many local library districts are now finefree, meaning they only impose fees for lost or damaged materials. Fine-free library districts include Jefferson County Libraries, Arapahoe Libraries and Denver Public Library.

She bought $15 worth of raw wool online, then headed to Castlewood Library to process it on a drum carding machine.

“I could invest $15 to learn something new,” Roberts said. “What I couldn’t do was invest $300 in classes and studio time. The library staff walked me through it — there’s only so much you can learn from a book.”

For others, it can mean a welcome reprieve when life throws them a curveball.

Anthony Montoya, a tax attorney in Castle Rock, found himself jobless when his law firm laid off his division.

“I was on my own all of a sudden, and everybody said I needed a commercial,” Montoya said. “Studios wanted to charge a lot of money, but the library in Parker had a green room, cameras and editing software.”

A Douglas County librarian gave Montoya and his wife a crash course in the equipment, and over a couple visits, he produced his own commercial.

“Another attorney told me recently they really liked my commercial, and asked who I hired to make it,” Montoya said. “I was pretty tickled by that.”

‘A beautiful thing’ New library offerings can be a powerful force for self-sufficiency, said Ashley Kazyaka, the program coordinator for Denver Public Library’s Ide-

aLAB, a group of makerspaces spread throughout the DPL system.

“I think there’s a beautiful thing that happens when you learn to do something yourself,” said Kazyaka, amid a hum of activity in the Central Branch’s IdeaLAB. “People can come in here and learn to sew on buttons or fix their cell phones. We’ve even had people experiencing homelessness who come in and 3D-print replacement parts for their backpacks. The ability to solve problems can translate into bigger things in people’s lives.”

At a nearby sewing machine, Markie Arendelle sat at a sewing machine, repairing a rip in his winter coat.

“This place is empowering,” said Arendelle, a singer and DJ. “I’m selfemployed, and here I can print my stickers and iron-on patches — it saves me so much money.”

Libraries can also give people a chance to try out tech and toys they might not otherwise have access to, said Andrea Wyant, a collection devel-

opment librarian for Douglas County Libraries.

Wyant heads the district’s “nontraditional items” collection, where patrons can check out items ranging from high-end digital cameras, virtual reality headsets and karaoke machines to digital projectors and retro video game consoles.

“We can give people access to things they can use and return without cluttering up their houses or unnecessarily duplicating things,” Wyant said.

“Sharing is caring. How much stuff do we all need in our lives?”

Looking to the future A wide range of new offerings doesn’t mean libraries are skimping on the reading material, said Donna Walker, the executive director of Jefferson County Libraries. In fact, she said, they’re exploring new ways to deliver that, too.

Jeffco’s libraries are expanding their e-book offerings, and for those

who prefer the printed page, they’re rolling out Redbox-like book vending machines and Amazon-style lockers. Patrons can also schedule home or office visits from librarians who specialize in fields like academics or business.

Meanwhile, Jeffco is in the process of remodeling all 10 of its branches, including, yes, more makerspaces.

“We want to stay a step ahead of the community,” Walker said. “A decade ago, people said: ‘Who goes to the library anymore?’ Now, we’re hearing from people who have cards to five different local library systems.”

Walker said in a time of expansion, it’s important that libraries endear themselves to the community. While the economy is hot now, they’ve got to prepare in case things get tight.

“During the recession, libraries faced a lot of hardships,” Walker said.

“Hours were cut. Positions were cut.

Our job is to manage our growth and our finances, and build relationships.

Libraries are an essential service.

They’re part of the bedrock of democracy.”

The big picture, Walker said, is that libraries are expanding beyond the buildings they’re housed in.

“We talk about the library being everywhere,” Walker said. “Libraries can be in your pocket. We can come to you.”

While libraries don’t charge users for services, Walker said, everyone chips in.

“People are paying for this through their taxes,” Walker said. “You might as well use what you’re paying for.”

Broncos hire ex-Giants coach Pat Shurmur as play-caller Makeover underway as Denver aims to end Chiefs’ domination in AFC West

BY ARNIE STAPLETON ASSOCIATED PRESS

Denver Broncos coach Vic Fangio has hired former New York Giants coach Pat Shurmur as his offensive coordinator.

Shurmur becomes the Broncos’ fifth offensive play-caller in five seasons and inherits an attack that features youngsters Drew Lock, Dalton Risner, Noah Fant, Courtland Sutton and Phillip Lindsay but also needs a major makeover to challenge Kansas City’s supremacy in the AFC West.

Shurmur replaces Rich Scangarello, who struggled in his first season as an NFL play-caller in 2019 although the Broncos (7-9) won games behind three different starting quarterbacks, including the rookie Lock, who went 4-1 down the stretch.

Shurmur drew interest from several teams, including the Chicago Bears, after his firing at the end of December by the Giants following a 4-12 finish in his second year.

In a statement, Fangio called Shurmur “an established play-caller with significant experience leading an offense as both a coordinator and head coach.”

“Having coached against Pat for a number of years, he’s always

impressed me. His track record of developing younger players is outstanding,” Fangio said. “Pat brings a collaborative approach to working with the staff as well as a flexibility to adjust the offense to our players and opponents. We’re excited to add someone of his caliber to our coaching staff.”

Shurmur is the second member of Fangio’s staff with NFL head coaching experience, joining offensive line coach Mike Munchak.

A 32-year coaching veteran, Shurmur has 21 seasons of NFL experience, including the last 11 years as a head coach or offensive coordinator.

He was head coach in Cleveland from 2011-12 and New York from 2018-19, where he fast-tracked the development of rookie QB Daniel Jones last season. He also served as interim coach for the Eagles at the end of 2015.

Shurmur also served as offensive coordinator with the Vikings (2016-17), Eagles (2013-15) and Rams (2009-10).

Fangio originally said he didn’t plan to change any of his coordinators but changed his mind two weeks later after reviewing the Broncos’ offense that managed fewer than 18 points a game and regressed in most categories under Scangarello’s watch.

Denver was the only team in 2019 to finish the season in the bottom five in points scored, total offense, third-down success rate and red zone success.
