Pit bulls remain banned Second vote by council not enough to override veto by Hancock BY ESTEBAN L. HERNANDEZ DENVERITE.COM
The CBD Suite carries a multitude of products ranging from tinctures and vapes, to skincare and edibles such as honey and spices. The shop also carries pet health-and-wellness products. Kiley and Bowers have set up what they call testing stations in the boutique-style shop. These are where people may sample various products in the store, such as lotions or gummies.
Denver’s pit bull ban will stay in place after City Councilman Chris Herndon on Feb. 24 failed to get enough votes to overturn Mayor Michael Hancock’s veto on the bill that Herndon had introduced in hopes of ending the ban. City council needed nine votes to overturn Hancock’s veto. It voted 8-5, so the veto held. Councilmembers Kendra Black, Candi CdeBaca, Jolon Clark, Herndon, Chris Hinds, Robin Kniech, Amanda Sandoval and Jamie Torres voted in favor of the veto override, which would have ended the ban. Councilmembers Kevin Flynn, Stacie Gilmore, Paul Kashmann, Debbie Ortega and Amanda Sawyer voted against it overriding Hancock’s veto. “These dogs do not bite at a greater propensity than others,” Herndon said before the vote; he cited experts who supported his bill and suggested the dogs aren’t more dangerous than other breeds. “I’m getting to a point where I’m running out of sources.” The measure would have allowed owners to register their dogs with several restrictions. All dogs are supposed to be registered with the city,

Nurturing a curiosity about CBD New CBD shop in Washington Park lets people test, discuss CBD products BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Jessica Kiley and Samantha Bowers realize people in Denver are curi-
ous about CBD. “We’re here to nurture that curiosity,” Bowers said. “A lot of it is trying it for yourself.” In early January, the two women opened their shop, The CBD Suite, in Washington Park at 1078 S. Gaylord St. to let people explore CBD. CBD is the abbreviated name for cannabidiol, which is found in cannabis plants. It is thought to help stop muscle and joint pain, promote muscle relaxation and relieve anxiety, among other ailments.

Interim RTD chief targets retention, project oversight Paul Ballard came from Texas to serve until board picks long-term replacement BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The Regional Transportation District’s interim CEO and general manager will have 14 months to steer the district in the right direction before RTD finds a long-term replacement. Paul Ballard, the longtime general manager of transit agencies in Fort Worth, Ballard Texas; Nashville, Tennessee; and St. Louis, came out of retirement to guide the district as it experiences driver and operator shortages and declining ridership. Ballard and RTD agreed he would helm the district for a period ranging from four to 14 months. “My objective is to keep things going,” Ballard said. “Tackle the issues I can in the interim and make things ready for the next, permanent CEO.”
Ballard said the length of his stint will depend on the employee retention rate. Ballard joined RTD officially Feb. 24 as a temporary replacement to former CEO/GM Dave Genova, who retired in December. Ballard said his two priorities are improving worker retention and overseeing the opening of the north commuter rail. Opening of the N Line, a 2004 FasTracks project to bring 18.5 miles of commuter rail from Union Station to Commerce City, Northglenn and Thornton, has been delayed by almost three years due to construction problems. RTD expects to open the line later this year. Ballard said, in his experience, Denver’s transit problems are unique. “In Fort Worth, for example, we had a similar labor market to here … But somehow, we didn’t have the turnover,” Ballard said. Ballard said Fort Worth’s transit agency, Trinity Metro, was smaller, which made it easier to develop strong relationships within the agency. “Obviously, there a communication problem (at RTD),” Ballard said. “That’s something we have to work on. How do we communicate to our employees, make them really part of the team and (make them) understand what our goals and objectives are?” Ballard said he plans to regularly
ride different RTD bus and rail lines to hear firsthand from riders and operators. “We have a good source of people to hire from, but somehow they’re not staying,” Ballard said. “We need to study it very closely and very quickly and find out how we can improve the experience so they want to stay. “We have to convince them to stick with it and things will get better quickly because it’s not an easy job,” Ballard said. RTD has experienced a driver shortage that has forced it to cut service across the region. On May 17, the district will make cuts to certain bus and rail lines, following a series of public open houses throughout the region, which conclude March 5. “We talk about how we want to increase ridership. Cutting service is not going to solve that, obviously. But we have to face reality,” Ballard said. Ballard noted service cuts can have a larger impact on local businesses whose employees rely on public transit to get to work. Ballard was optimistic about working with the Colorado Legislature, which he planned to do for the first time Feb. 25. Senate Bill 151 aims to expand RTD’s board of directors by two, both governor-appointed representatives, who would advocate for the district’s most
vulnerable population — those with disabilities and those in disadvantaged communities. Angie Rivera-Malpiede, chair of the RTD Board of Directors, said the board was excited to bring Ballard on in a “new era” for the district. Rivera-Malpiede thanked the public for its input in the search for the district’s new CEO/GM. RTD allowed members of the community to weigh in on the five finalists for the job, announced in January. Forty people applied for the job. “The board and I are extremely U excited about all the possibilities a we have moving forward,” Rivera- r Malpiede said. P Rivera-Malpiede said the new executive team, voted in Jan. 7, made w a point to be more transparent, m beginning with the open search for s an interim CEO/GM. “ “I think that’s a whole new era,” v Rivera-Malpiede said. Rivera-Malpiede added the district’s efforts to i reach constituents through surveys a and open houses at places like bus 1 stops and train stations, where t people “gather organically.” f “It’s really a whole new way P of thinking about talking to our c constituents, our commuters and everybody, our staff, and we’re really d excited about that,” Rivera-Malpie- o de said. “We think Mr. Ballard will s enhance that opportunity with us to o work hand-in-hand.” p

Colorado joining states with no death penalty Emotional days in Legislature end with majority voting against capital punishment BY JAMES ANDERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
Colorado is set to become the 22nd U.S. state to abolish the death penalty after lawmakers on Feb. 26 approved a repeal bill that Democratic Gov. Jared Polis has pledged to sign into law. Passage had been virtually certain with Democrats holding a substantial majority in the House — even with several Democratic lawmakers casting “no” votes for the 36-27 repeal approval vote. The bill, passed by the Democrat-dominated state Senate in January, would apply to offenses charged starting July 1 and would not affect the fate of the three men on Colorado’s death row who face execution by lethal injection. But Polis has suggested he might consider clemency for them if asked. “All clemency requests are weighty decisions that the governor will judge on their individual merits,” said Polis spokesman Conor Cahill. Colorado’s last execution was carried out in 1997, when Gary Lee Davis was put to death by lethal injection for the

state law with a measure that seeks to make permanent a 2018 state Supreme Court ruling that struck down capital punishment as arbitrary and racially biased. In 2019, New Mexico’s Supreme Court set aside the death penalty for the final two inmates awaiting execution after the state’s 2009 repeal of capital punishment. New Hampshire was the last state to repeal the death penalty, doing so last year. Two prominent Colorado Democrats — Sen. Rhonda Fields of Aurora and Rep. Tom Sullivan of Centennial — used their own personal stories as crime victims in a bid to maintain capital punishment, or at least refer the issue to voters in a referendum. Robert Ray and Sir Mario Owens were sentenced to die for the 2005 ambush slayings of Field’s son, Javad Marshall-Fields, and his fiancee, Vivian Wolfe. Sullivan’s son, Alex, was killed in the 2012 Aurora movie theater shootings. Shooter James Holmes received multiple life sentences after a jury couldn’t agree unanimously on death. Also on Colorado’s death row is Nathan Dunlap, who ambushed and murdered four people inside a Chuck E. Cheese restaurant in 1993. In 2013, then-Gov. John Hickenlooper, now a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, indefinitely delayed Dunlap’s execution. Hickenlooper has since come out saying he opposes the death penalty.

Englewood venue snags major art exhibition Rauschenberg: Reflections and Ruminations now at Museum of Outdoor Arts
IF YOU GO “Rauschenberg: Reflections and Ruminations” runs through June 13 at the Museum of Outdoor Arts indoor gallery in the Englewood Civic Center, 1000 Englewood Parkway, Englewood. Tickets: $10, moaonline.org. Hours: Monday to Thursday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Friday, Saturday, 10a.m. to 5 p.m. Information on upcoming workshops and events: moaonline.org/Rauschenberg.

Starting with the glass entry doors at Museum of Outdoor Arts, Robert Rauschenberg’s work impacts a visitor — and it continues as one strolls through the large gallery at the Englewood Civic Center, and loops through a reprocessed office space. Then one reverses directions and heads down a fascinating hallway to two more spaces filled with the distinctive American artist’s works. MOA staff, with curator Dan Jacobs, has worked on pulling off this exhibit for a number of years and we are fortunate that it’s finally open through June 13. Rauschenberg (1925-2008) painted, printed, photographed, drew, sculpted, assembled, experimented — and combined techniques as he wished. It’s especially appropriate that his exuberant work is exhibited during Mo’ Print (Month of Printmaking, March 2020) in the area, since his explosive works are a dramatic contrast to the smaller, tighter, more controlled images we tend to expect from a traditional printmaker. Museum Director Cynthia Madden Leitner’s catalog foreword explains a
“Lotus X” in the Lotus Series by Robert Rauschenberg is exhibited at Museum of Outdoor Art’s indoor Gallery at Englewood Civic Center. COURTESY PHOTO connection: “I met Robert Rauschenberg at his home on Captiva Island in Florida in the early 1980s.” Her parents were friends of this charismatic man … The title of the exhibit: “Reflections and Ruminations,” refers to titles of works and the highly polished surfaces that carry some images. Jacobs may have started with John Madden, the director’s father, who owned several pieces, but the search took him across the country, as well as locating works at DU and CU.
Works on reflective surfaces seem to include the visitor’s reflection as part of the art in prints on aluminum, brass or polished steel, and one realizes the title of the exhibit plays with one’s perceptions … A photograph to the left as one enters presents a profile of a goodlooking man staring off into the distance — no doubt mentally picturing wild bursts of color and big strokes of brush or other implement. The outline of Rauschenberg’s hand also brings one in closer to an extraordinary man. There are repeats of images such as skyscrapers and tires and cabbages … these images continue to his last series: “Lotus,” continuing into 2008, the year he died. He took photos himself — and used other images freely, including some historic ones. Works include paintings, lithographs and “Combines,” one of which, “Autobiography,” includes an image of the artist with a parachute flying behind him as he skates forward … “Accident,” (1963) included in this
exhibit, is well known — the lithograph stone he was using cracked as he was creating the image to be printed and he just went ahead and completed the work, including that crack. The edition of repeats of this image shows slight differences as the stone shifted a bit, according to the catalog copy by curator Jacobs. A traveler, with concern for environmental and human issues, Rauschenberg interacted with the world as he soaked up images. He started ROCI, the Rauschenberg Overseas Cultural Exchange and images from the Soviet leg tried to show similarities in cultures. ”Soviet/American Array VII” shows New York and Moscow apartment buildings in a collection of other images. Each grouping of works has a block of wall copy, rather than a label on each painting, so a visitor may want to focus in on each block of words for better interpretation of the exhibit. “Reflections and Ruminations” offers more than 50 original works by a man who was very influential in his own world and well beyond. The visitor can try to follow thought processes, changes in the use of repeated images and a variety of techniques. A work unto itself is “Barney Google Glut,” 1987, assembled metal collage. Is it a sort of rhino? An entirely imaginary beast? Or should we settle for an abstracted sculptural image? (I really wanted to stroke its back.) MOA offers a special opportunity to art lovers during the duration of this exhibit. It’s a “don’t miss.”

Changing neighborhoods inspire local author’s debut novel ‘Secrets from the Past’ is a ghost story with romance, history BY CLARKE READER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
A common concern among many in the Denver area is the loss of historic buildings and homes — structures that serve as a tangible testament to the Mile-High City’s long and varied history. Longtime West Washington Park resident Pat Shipley, and the lead character of her debut novel, Cassie Hart, understands this sentiment well. Shipley’s love for her 113-yearold home and her distress at seeing so many similar homes being knocked down and replaced with new, modern condos inspired her to tackle the subject in “Secrets from the Past.” “The inspiration for ‘Secrets from the Past’ was seeing this happening all too often and changing the quaint feel of our neighborhood,” Shipley said. “I did quite a bit of research when writing this novel, including understanding the processes involved in trying to save an old house from demolition.” Shipley’s book is now available on Amazon Kindle. It follows the 28-year-old Cassie, who finds herself

She takes all that feeling and energy and puts it into saving a 130-year-old cottage slated for demolition in the old part of Denver. In the process of saving the cottage, she receives visits from a small child that only Cassie can see. This raises all manner of questions, most pressingly, who is this ghost and why does it want Cassie to know all about her death? Throw in a developer with an undeniable attraction to Cassie, and the end result is a book with something for everyone. “It took about six months to write ‘Secrets from the Past’ and then another six months to edit and polish it. The fun research involved reading about ghosts and developing a believable plot,” Shipley said. “Denver’s libraries offer excellent research resources and great tech help, which is how I was able to self-publish this novel.” Shipley has lived in her historic cottage for 33 years. She has been a writer in several different fields, including local newspapers, writing press releases and annual reports for

Coronavirus Panic Puts a Hit on Your Retirement Wealth by Kathy Muni
W
ith the coronavirus becoming a pandemic and heading for the US, stock markets globally have lost $3.3 trillion of value in the past week due to panic. Now, not only do we have to protect our health, but we also have to protect our wealth. At times of severe market volatility, Senior investors often panic or are forced to sell and sustain large losses to their retirement portfolio. Many times, these losses cannot be recovered quickly. With a Reverse Mortgage Line of Credit Senior homeowners can access funds by tapping into their housing wealth rather than selling stocks or other assets, thereby creating a hedge against the market downturn and beyond. Then over time, as market volatility decreases and stock market-based assets return to stable prices, you have the option to sell them then, if needed, rather than sustaining large market losses now. There are many different uses of a taxfree Reverse Mortgage Line of Credit. It can be a powerful tool in stabilizing and
complimenting your retirement needs. The good news for Senior homeowners – a Reverse Mortgage has easy income and credit requirements, and can often be put in place in as little as fifteen days.

The Allen Institute is building an online atlas that makes information on hundreds of human brain cells freely available for study.

the act of causing a seizure. Patients being monitored in this way may spend a week or more in a hospital room as doctors wait for seizures to happen. During that time, patients don’t have a lot to do. For neuroscience researchers, a group of people with implanted brain electrodes and plenty of time is a golden opportunity. “It is rare that you have the opportunity to study the brain in such a detailed way in awake people,” says Dr. Joshua Rosenow of Northwestern University.
Electrodes can change perception In some cases, researchers use the implanted electrodes for stimulation. A few years ago, to explore the role of a certain part of the brain in perceiving faces, Dr. Josef Parvizi of Stanford University activated that area in a 41-yearold patient. The man was looking at Parvizi, who was next to his hospital bed, when the stimulation began. “You just turned into somebody else,” the patient told Parvizi. “Your nose got saggy and went to the left. You almost look like somebody I’ve seen before but somebody different. That was a trip.” Other times, the brain electrodes are used to monitor what happens as patients do specific mental tasks. Patients may sniff odors, do math, sing, read specific words or sentences aloud, listen to music or speech, look at faces on a screen, name objects in line drawings, stick out their tongues, or do other things meant to create specific brain activity. All the while, scientists track what’s going on in their brains. “There is an explosion of studies in this field, because it is immensely important to know the timing of events in the brain, which areas light up first” and which follow, said Parvizi. “And when area A lights up, what does area B do?” The monitoring of Nall’s brain provided data for several papers published in the past couple years. One of her experimental tasks sounds a little strange: During her 2013 hospital stay she was asked to repeat the sentence, “I never said she stole my money” over and over, putting an emphasis on a different word each time. Those changes altered the meaning of the sentence. Researchers had sought her help in learning how the brain produces and controls speech, perhaps a step toward helping people unable to talk. That goal struck a chord with Nall, who recalled that an uncle’s voice was stilled by Lou Gehrig’s disease. Looking back, she said she’d encourage others to take the same step. “It is something you feel good about later,” she said. “Let your life be defined by the lives that you change.” Two weeks after Hofmann’s surgery, a scar curves from the top of her right ear to her forehead hairline. “So far, so good,” she said. “No seizures.” Part of her brain is gone, but she doesn’t feel anything’s missing. In fact, happy memories have surfaced, “things I haven’t thought of since I was a girl.” Contributing brain cells to science “makes me so proud and so satisfied,” she said. “It makes me feel more connected to the human race.”

Q&A with astronaut Matthew Dominick Jeffco schools grad a test pilot for NASA, preparing to go to space
of years. My job is ultimately to go to space, so I keep up all of my skills. Now that you’ve graduated, what’s next? All of us have ground jobs and we rotate through who’s in space at each time. Right now, I’m working on three new spaceships that haven’t gone to space before. Most of the time, a test pilot is sitting down with engineers and asking questions. We work through how we’re going to launch this for the first time and run scenarios in the simulator.

As NASA prepares for upcoming missions — including the 2024 Artemis mission, through which NASA will build a base at the moon — recent graduates from NASA’s basic training program await their first assignments to space. The 2017 Class of Astronauts, which graduated at a ceremony in Jan. 2020, included Matthew Dominick, who grew up in Wheat Ridge and graduated from D’Evelyn High School in 2000. Dominick interviewed with Colorado Community Media about his role at NASA and what the future has in store.
QA
What was your path to becoming an astronaut? I always wanted to explore and understand the world around me. I think every child has that. I went to the University of San Diego to study engineering and I liked the idea of going fast and flying, so in 2005, I joined the Navy and became a test pilot. I realized that if you want to go higher
Former D’Evelyn student Matthew Dominick is now a test pilot for NASA and graduate of the Class of Astronauts 2017. COURTESY OF NASA AND ROBERT MARKOWITZ and faster than airplanes, you’ve got to go to space. I started applying for initial training (with NASA) in 2016. Can you list some of the skills you’ve developed? I think of it as astronaut boot camp. We’ve got to learn how to work together in high-stress situations, we
study Russian, we take geology classes because if we go to the moon and are communicating back to geologists, we have to be able to use their language. We have to practice space walks because if your spaceship breaks, you have to go out and repair it. And our training never ends; I could be assigned to a mission in the next couple
What else in your life has changed since high school? I work with a bunch of very incredible people, and then I go home to my wife and two daughters and we continue exploring at home. I’m going to an event with my older daughter this weekend where we’re going to launch rockets with all of her friends. I love watching my daughters’ little minds explore the world. Looking back, what stands out to you? This is an exciting time for space and space exploration and Colorado’s invested in these projects. This is a really good time to pick up an encyclopedia or do that Wikipedia deep dive on where we are in space exploration. That would be my recommendation to young people and to anybody. — Interview was condensed and edited for clarity.

VOICES A handful of clues before we choose
T
his is it, I promise. My one and only political column. Nationally, roughly 43% of eligible voters did not vote in the 2016 presidential election. Let’s try to do better. That’s all I am going to say. You’re not going to get an QUIET endorsement out of me, but if you can DESPERATION read between the lines, I think you’ll know. I have never seen anything like 201620. If nothing else, it has been entertaining. However, there has been a whole lot of Craig Marshall else. Daily. Hourly. The past three and Smith a half years have been exhausting and exasperating. There’s no other way for me to look at it. It’s been what’s called an “eye opener.” I simply didn’t realize as many of my neighbors believe in
what they believe in. Maybe that’s the silver lining. The United States are not united states. I often wonder if the exhaustion and exasperation have wicked into our conscious and unconscious behavior. There seems to be more disrespect and belligerence. I would prefer to be either informative or amusing and leave the deep dish editorials to others. Will Rogers said, “I am not a member of any organized political party. I’m a Democrat.” Does anyone remember Rogers? He was born to a Cherokee family in 1879 and died in a plane crash in Alaska in 1935. In between, he was a humorist, actor, cowboy, social commentator and newspaper columnist. “Folksy” always appears next to his name. He once said he never met a man he didn’t like. Boy, I sure have. Including myself. Each and every one of us is imperfect. Except my sister. No, I take that
back. She bites her fork. Some people are more imperfect than others. I could name names all day, but why be that unpleasant? It’s so easy to be unpleasant, and I admit my own voice participates. If I had only one choice, I’d choose “humorist.” I can’t change, improve, or enthrall anyone, and I don’t want to try. I wish I had kept track of the films I have watched since November 2016. Have there been more comedies than tragedies? How about music? My preference was wordless classical music before the 2016 election and it has remained wordless classical music. When I hear Beethoven it improves my day. It’s so good, it makes up for the headlines, at least for 10 or 15 minutes. There’s something else that improves my day: writing. It’s my banjo. One of Steve Martin’s routines had him playing the banjo. Playing the banjo whisked away whatever
troubles he was having. As soon as I sit down to write, I leave (most) of my troubles at the doorstep. With one exception: I often write letters to the editor of the daily, and it’s rarely to praise someone or something. I reminisce more than ever these days. Partly because of my age and partly because of the past three and a half years. I lived alone throughout college in little apartments, generally with wafer-thin walls that let in every imaginable sound. My dream was a home filled with silence, if that’s what I wanted. Now I have it. Silence is one of my best friends. Soon enough it will be Nov. 3, 2020. To conclude, I quote Bob Dylan: “Here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price you have to pay to get out of going through all these things twice.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

The born salesperson can be nature or nurture
S
o, occasionally, my selling roots do show up in some of my writing. And, although you may not be in sales yourself, two things may happen by continuing to read on. First, you may know someone in sales, and they could find this column interestWINNING ing. Second, even WORDS though it looks like a column about the selling profession, it’s really about much more. Over the years I have heard two sides of an argument. There is one school of thought that believes there are Michael Norton certain people who are born with the gifts, personality, attitude and skills to be recognized as a born salesperson. The other side of that argument is that there is no such thing as a born salesperson, salespeople are made, not born. They

will argue that even though they may have been blessed with the gifts, personality and attitude, there is no way they were born with the skills. Do you know any born salespeople? I mean the kind of person that without any guidance or direction just somehow ended up in sales. And not only did they end up in sales, they were somewhat successful and sometimes even wildly successful. I know that I can personally name a few men and women whom I know and whom I have worked with who may have me thinking that they actually were a born salesperson. Now having spent most of my professional life in personal and professional development, and having met thousands of salespeople over the years, I may be qualified to choose a side in this debate. And where I would land would be that I do believe there are born salespeople. Just like I believe there are born athletes, born musicians, and born chefs, I also believe there are born salespeople. But just like an athlete,

musician, or chef who was born with certain gifts, personalities, and attitudes, somewhere along the way they were taught and perfected skills and techniques. Somewhere along the way they received coaching and training to elevate them to a new level of achievement. When we look at the difference between being born with certain physical qualities and positive attitudes that help us get to where we want to go in life, there is also this other quality called desire and another trait called work ethic. And when we can marry our desire and work ethic with the qualities and attributes we were born with, while working on ourselves and our craft, we can become great at anything. Maybe the argument shouldn’t be about whether or not we were born to be a certain kind of person, maybe the argument should be that we were all born with gifts, personalities, attitudes, and the ability to build upon each one through some great coaching, training, and practice.

The two also plan to host various events at the shop, such as visiting brand reps and/or education, mindfulness and health-and-wellness events. “The shop was designed to encourage the community to taste, try, learn and explore all things CBD,” Kiley said. “We wanted to highlight how multifaceted and exciting the properties of hemp are.” Both hemp and marijuana come from the same cannabis species, but hemp is the non-intoxicating variety of the cannabis plant. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the main psychoactive compound in marijuana and its consumption is what makes a person feel high. “All our products are federally legal,” Bowers said, “and contain zero THC, or the minuscule 0.3% federal legal limit that is non-psychoactive or intoxicating.” Kiley and Bowers both have a background in aesthetic beauty — Kiley is a licensed aesthetician and Bowers worked in medical management dealing with both eastern and western medicine. “Our shop was designed and built to model a high end, excellent customer service experience,” Bowers said, “without the slightest resemblance of a head shop or dispensary.” Neither are medical doctors and cannot diagnose ailments or prescribe cures. However, both Kiley and Bowers are happy to discuss what they’ve learned about CBD’s benefits as an alternative medicine, and recommend products that people can use as a daily routine and/or implement into their personal health-and-wellness plan. Kiley and Bowers feel it is important for all people interested in CBD products to be smart consumers, such as know how to read a lab report, for example. In addition to their shop having undergone all the inspections, licensing and approval processes with the city of Denver, the two business owners carry only pre-established brands and have tested every product they sell. “It’s such a new industry and it’s hard to find a trusted source,” Kiley

Hancock vetoed the bill after hearing from hundreds of residents.

all the information, data, it was those folks who most concerned me, along with the impact of bites by pit bulls oftentimes leading to severe injuries or fatalities.” The recent saga was the latest chapter in the ban’s long and controversial history. The ban was enacted in 1989 following a series of high-profile pit bull attacks, including a fatal attack involving a child. While people who wanted to see the ban repealed mentioned pit bulls as caring family pets, others who wanted the ban to remain law mentioned public safety for children and the elderly as reasons why they wanted it to remain on the books.

Movie theaters step up comfort, amenities for enhanced experience BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
T
raditional moviegoing is struggling, and it’s not hard to see why. Cheap Netflix subscriptions. High (and higher) definition TVs. The ability to stream endless hours of entertainment with the push of a smartphone button. It’s that seemingly endless entertainment bounty that makes the decline of the simpleton cinema inevitable, right? Perhaps, but don’t tell that to the executives at the nation’s two largest movie theater chains, Regal Cinemas and AMC Theaters. They’ve both spent millions on lavish renovations and improvements to their theaters across the Denver area and show no signs of stopping. From Westminster to Highlands Ranch and Arvada to Lone Tree, Denver-area audiences now sip craft beers and nosh on gourmet treats like flatbread pizzas and mac and cheese bites while watching crystal-clear movies from recliner seats that they reserved hours and even days ahead of time. It’s all part of a new focus on the guest that AMC public relations director Ryan Noonan says has swept both AMC and the theater industry as a whole in the last few years. That’s been especially true in the Denver area, which Noonan said has seen among the most renovations and investment among AMC markets. “What we saw is that guests really wanted this elevated moviegoing experience and they were no longer satisfied with just showing up and sitting in a seat and rubbing elbows with the person next to them,” Noonan said “They wanted to come sit in recliners, they wanted to enjoy better food, they wanted to have a beer as they watched a movie and they wanted to see it on a really big screen with the latest in projection technology. And as we’ve continued to provide that, we’ve seen more and more success and great guest feedback.” Improvements can be costly Although each of those improvements represents a major investment on the part of theater operators, few match the costs of adding reclining seats, which not only require individual auditoriums to be closed during installation but also typically reduce their capacity by 50% to 60% once installed. But while such a change would seem to represent a self-inflicted threat to theater bottom lines, Noonan said AMC has found it to be a net positive because theaters are now finding people are returning to theaters more often even if it means

Colfax Ave.) The Marketplace concession stand at AMC Highlands Ranch 24. there are not as many seats available to sell on the most popular moviegoing weekends. The unique attraction that such seats offer became evident when the seats were first installed in an entire AMC theater in Seattle, Noonan said, and strong consumer enthusiasm for them has also been evident in the Denver area. “Almost immediately what we saw (in that first theater in Seattle) were guests coming up to the box office and saying ‘I’d like to sit in a recliner to watch a movie’ and not ‘I’d like to go see this specific movie, what auditorium is it in?’” said Noonan.

have become increasingly standard in Denver and other markets throughout the country, they were anything but when a Texan named Tim League opened a theater called Alamo Drafthouse that combined inseat food and drink service with an old-school Hollywood vibe in Austin, Texas in 1997. Alamo Drafthouse is credited by many in the industry with spearheading changing consumer tastes and the evolving nature of theaters in the Denver market has followed quickly from the opening of Alamo Drafthouse’s first area theater in Littleton in 2013 (additional locations have since opened in the Sloan’s Lake area and Westminster).

Davis prepared to regain closer’s role with Rockies Last two months of 2019 season were not kind for 11-year veteran BY JACK MAGRUDER ASSOCIATED PRESS
Wade Davis has again entered spring training as the Colorado Rockies’ closer after a rough 2019 season. Davis lost his ninth-inning role in the final two months last year, when he finished 1-6 with 15 saves and an 8.65 ERA in the least effective effort of an 11-year career. “It sucks when you’re not doing well at anything, anything in life,” Davis said. “The biggest thing is to move past it. That’s when you learn and grow. You work harder. You prepare and you are at ease with what happened and your struggles. That’s why I feel good about where I’m at now, despite whatever.” Scott Oberg took over as closer and pitched well before a blood clot in his right shoulder forced him to miss the final six weeks of the season and required offseason surgery, though he is healthy this spring and will join Davis in the back end of the bullpen. “I think in a perfect world, Wade is our closer and Scotty pitches in front of him in some capacity, whether it is an inning or one-plus or two innings,” Colorado manager Bud Black said. “Our best scenario thing is if Wade returns to form and pitches as closer when he is available, and Scott and others pitch those other innings.” Black said his confidence in Davis’ return is based on “Wade himself, the guy he is, and his stuff.” The 34-year-old Davis has a resume
that includes a World Series ring with Kansas City in 2015, a 1.80 ERA in 30 postseason appearances and four AllStar Game appearances. “You know, you see the best in the world struggle,” Davis said. “You see them come back and do good. There are not too many guys that don’t have a rough patch in their career.” Health appeared to play a major role in Davis’ struggles. Davis was 1-1 with seven saves and a 2.45 ERA in 17 appearances before landing on the injury list with a strained oblique muscle in late May. He ran into trouble upon returning three weeks later, giving up seven earned runs in 2 1/3 innings with two blown saves in a four-game series against San Diego. Davis said it took him until December to fully recover. “I did focus a lot on maintaining that area and getting stronger,” Davis said of his offseason regimen. “There’s an injury I’d never had before. So definitely, I can feel the difference now.” The injury hindered his ability to rotate during his delivery and square up to the plate before release. “You’ll always be out of balance, basically, is what it feels like,” Davis said. “But, you know, I felt good enough.” Oberg was 6-1 with five saves and a 2.25 ERA in 49 appearances last season before being shut down after his last save Aug. 16. He had surgery to enlarge an artery in his right shoulder, a procedure he was told will alleviate further issues. Oberg also missed the final six weeks of the 2016 season with a blood clot in the same shoulder. Oberg received a three-year, $13 million contract last December.

THEATERS FROM PAGE 10
Regal Cinemas, the nation’s second biggest theater chain and the operator of 13 theaters in Colorado, seemed to be following the Alamo model when it hopened a Regal Cinebarre, its brand of dine-in theater, in Greenwood Village last year. The Cinebarre took over its space from Greenwood Plaza Stadium 12, an aging theater that had closed in 2018. “This state-of-the-art theater is a unique destination that provides moviegoers with an enhanced entertainment experience as they watch movies and eat a great meal,” Heather Peters, the public relations director for Regal Cinemas, wrote in an email. “The theater features a complete restaurant menu, traditional movie treats, plus a full bar with handcrafted cocktails and satellite television.” Even some of Denver’s most classic and longstanding cinema destinations are taking note of the changing landscape and responding accordingly. When damage from a burst pipe forced the historic Esquire Theater in Denver’s Capitol Hill neighborhood to close in late 2018, many assumed it would never reopen. But when it did so last summer, the theater’s guests were greeted with the addition of new theater seats, carpeting and flooring as well as a new box office and concession stand. The improvements continued this winter with the addition of alcoholic beverag-

es and an expanded concession menu. “People increasingly expect to be able to grab a beer when they go out, and if we can have that for them it obviously keeps us in contention as far as a night out,” said the theater’s manager, Troy Lasley, who said alcohol has been popular at the theater. Different angle on competition But will such changes allow theaters like the Esquire to stave off the challenge posed by Netflix, DisneyPlus and other in-home entertainment options? Patrick Corcoran, the vice president
of the National Association of Theater Operators, says that’s not actually the right question. That’s because Corcoran and other industry insiders feel that movie theaters are not actually competing with streaming services. “Our competition is primarily for people who want to get out of the house,” said Corcoran. “In terms of the home, the disruption has primarily been in the home whether it’s been with VCR or DVD or now streaming services.” And that away-from-home experience market is one in which Noonan
said the theater industry continues to hold its own. For evidence of that success, he points to data that shows the film industry continues to sell around twice as many tickets as the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB professional sports leagues combined. “I can’t think of a movie that’s been on a streaming service that’s ever got the amount of attention that ‘Avengers: Endgame’ got this year and that’s because movie theaters and movies up on the big screen are the cultural touchpoint for people that they gravitate towards,” Noonan said. “And so while there will always be challenges, I think AMC and really the industry in general have done a really good job of pivoting to an elevated experience and I think guests have really responded.”
