Successes House Speaker Crisanta Duran, D-Denver, and House Assistant Minority Leader Cole Wist, R-Centennial, both count the passage of a construction defects reform bill as a success this year.

Duran House Bill 1279, if signed

by Gov. John Hickenlooper, will require the approval of a majority of members of a homeowners association to approve a lawsuit against a contractor. It would also require HOA boards to disclose projected costs of proposed litigation to members and call a meeting at which the executive board and the developer or builder will have an opportunity to present arguments.

It drew support from across the spectrum and was sponsored by both Duran and Wist.

Rapper Ice Cube, food trucks and artists show up to Project Pabst music festival

BY ANTONIO HERNANDEZ SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Rapper Ice Cube pumps up the crowd at the Captain Pabst Stage.

State lawmakers were counting their wins and losses in the days after the conclusion of the legislative session.

Colorado Community Media talked to a couple of high-ranking state representatives, a Democrat and a Republican, for perspective on the session that ended May 10.

Cube, the rapper/actor. There were two main stages between 27th and 28th on Larimer Street with a variety of venues hosting indoor events.

Phantogram and Danny Brown also drew large crowds on the Laser Horse Stage. But fans were disappointed at the last-minute cancellation of the artist No Name “due to unforeseen circumstances.”

A unicorn statue with an LED horn rose in the center of Larimer Street and beckoned festivalgoers. Food trucks in a parking lot on Larimer sold everything from oysters on the half shell to pizza and nachos. Artists set up makeshift studios. And RiNo residents gathered on rooftops overlooking the festival for a bird’s-eye view of the performance.

The Larimer Lounge and the Meadowlark also hosted indoor performances throughout the night. Key performers included the Nuns of Brixton and Colfax Speed Queen.

Two civilian initiatives are coming to Colorado to help veterans and their families deal with traumatic brain injuries, post-traumatic stress and other problems, the University of Colorado said.

The recently announced five-year, $38 million gift from the Marcus Foundation will create the Marcus Institute for Brain Health at the university’s Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, helping veterans manage the lingering effects of service-related concussions.

The foundation, based in Atlanta, was established by Bernard Marcus, co-founder of Home Depot.

The university also announced it will work with the Cohen Veterans Network to establish a mental health clinic for Denver-area veterans and their families. The Cohen Network committed $9.8 million over three years for the clinic.

The network was started by hedge fund manager Steven A. Cohen.

Both programs are separate from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, which is building a $1.7 billion medical center less than a mile from the Anschutz Medical Campus in the Denver suburb of Aurora.

i e s A PTSD treatment center was part of a the original plan for the VA hospital butr it was cut from the first phase because the overall project ran far over budget. F Officials of the new civilian programs said they will complement VA i services and fill some gaps. Both will s offer care to veterans who are ineligible t for VA services because they received f other-than-honorable discharges.

The Marcus Institute will treat up to s 400 veterans a year using traditional and alternative medicine, said Dr. James Kelly, executive director of the institute.

“The idea would be to blend very advanced, very high-tech medical care with complementary and alternative medical methods such as acupuncture and breathing techniques and relaxation and therapeutic massage, a whole variety of things that we’ve found useful,” he said.

Kelly, a neurologist, led the Defense Department’s National Intrepid Center of Excellence at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for seven years. The center treats active-duty servicemen and women with traumatic brain injuries and psychological health conditions.

Veterans will not be charged anything for participating, even if they do not have insurance, Kelly said.

LEGISLATURE FROM PAGE 1

“It’s a big step in the right direction,” Wist said.

The bill was introduced with bipartisan support after a similar measure died in a committee in the Democratcontrolled House after passing the Republican-controlled Senate. That measure, Senate Bill 156, would have also required HOAs to enter into thirdparty arbitration with builders before filing suit, and drew broad opposition from House Democrats.

“We were able to find common ground that will hopefully spur more condos being built,” Duran said.

Wist also said he considers House Bill 1150, limiting bail for stalking or domestic violence offenders; House Bill 1220, limiting residential marijuana grows, and House Bill 1302, establishing laws on juvenile sexting, as successes as well.

Duran said Senate Bill 267, converting the hospital provider fee to an enterprise program and funding infrastructure projects, was a success. She also counted some criminal justice reform bills as successes.

Failures Duran and Wist both count the Legislature’s inability to come to a consensus on transportation-infrastructure funding as a disappointment, but from different points of view.

Democrats, and a few Republicans, supported a bill that would have put a

‘We were able to find common ground that will hopefully spur more condos being built.’

Crisanta Duran, House Speaker

sales tax increase in front of voters in November in order to fund transportation projects. After passing the house with the support of four Republicans, it was stopped by the Senate finance committee.

“It was a bipartisan compromise,” Duran said of the bill, noting it had co-sponsorship from Senate President Kevin Grantham, R-Canon City.

She said she believes it could have passed on the Senate floor.

Wist says the state should prioritize infrastructure funding in the general fund rather that creating new taxes.

“There is waste in this budget that could be reallocated to transportation if only we had the process to do it,” he said.

PHOTO CONTEST WINNERS! “This is a picture of me with my daughter Grace. I battled cancer while pregnant with her and after she was born. It was taken when I was finally able to hold her. I had lifting restrictions from the treatment that were lifted temporarily between surgeries.

It was so amazing to bond with her and actually hold her in my arms. I find the picture so sweet because of how she is looking at me and also because we are both bald together.”

Musing about numbing nourishment is food for thought, or thought for food

here’s comfort food and there’s discomfort food.

Sometimes one precedes the other.

I am still trying to figure out what QUIET discomfort food led DESPERATION to this narrative.

Usually I can look back, and finger the wrongdoer. But not this time.

I woke with a stomachache, felt old and useless, and didn’t feel like doing anything.

But when you live Craig Marshall alone, you’d better roust at some point, Smith because no one is headed your way with soup.

The Washington Post (2014) reported that there are more Americans living alone than ever before.

In the 1920s it was roughly 5 percent. Now it’s more than 27 percent.

In Manhattan and Washington, D.C.,

I

it’s closer to 50 percent.

If you have looked into this, you know that aging alone raises health and safety issues.

In my instance, the good news is that I do not live in the woods, or on a farm in the middle of nowhere.

My episode, which passed (he said), made me commiserate with anyone who can’t get up and about without pain. Or anyone who cannot get up at all.

I’ve seen that.

My misery accomplished something else. It kept me off of the computer and my nose out of the news.

The news has never been this sour.

I can’t seem to get any relief. Maybe the trick, occasionally, is to eat a stuffed pepper or a smothered burrito.

Current events hold little consequence when you are unwell.

Was a time when I drank to extricate myself. I went to time zones where the clocks are all counterclockwise.

Somehow or other, I have gathered

just enough wisdom to get beyond that.

But I don’t know exactly what I would do if I was mostly immobilized. I read about people who live it out with courage, no matter what they are up against.

I don’t think the arrow is pointing in that direction.

When I felt fit again, I thought about comfort food.

What is your comfort food? Here in America it might be different than what an ailing Norwegian asks for.

An ailing Norwegian might want puffin.

Comfort food is typically associated with childhood or home cooking.

We all experience very different childhoods, however.

The Smiths were middle-class, and we ate middle-class meals.

When little Princess Charlotte of Cambridge isn’t feeling it, what might she ring for? It can’t be macaroni and cheese.

Macaroni and cheese comes out on top in the United States. Meatloaf is

in there too, along with sweets, especially ice cream.

Further on down the line are clams.

Much further down.

Diners, which are disappearing, are the beneficent angels of comfort food.

I will write a poem to mashed potatoes and gravy. Chicken and dumplings? I am working on a song.

Just keep spicy food away from my door, when the ague is on me, even though your intentions might be kindly.

Unless, of course, you want to keep me down.

One of my girlfriends preferred me when I was off a bit.

“Craig, I have a new recipe,” she would say, and before I caught on to her, I’d have a next-day bout.

This is a get-well card from a stranger. Be yourself and shine on again soon, you crazy diamond.

Taking advantage of an unexpected and welcome break from technology

f you are like most people, we have all had those moments where we wish that we could take a break from technology, or at least some of the technology that seems to preoccupy WINNING our lives. Well, this WORDS past week I had an issue with my laptop and tablet that required that I give up both so that they could be repaired and data salvaged.

As I left both devices in the capable hands of Michael Norton my IT team and boarded my flight home, I thought I would feel nervous or anxious about not having access to my files or my email. But as it turned out, I felt this overwhelming sense of calm and peace. Almost as if I were leaving for a little bit of vacation.

DENVER Since 1926

Now I still had my phone, and I was able to see email if I wanted to, I could text if I needed to, and I could check on what’s happening in the news all from the palm of my hand. But instead, I decided that for the next two days I was going to make phone calls to the people I needed to communicate with, not just send a text or email. I went back to taking notes and capturing outlines for presentations on a pad of paper instead of on my laptop. It was very freeing and I believe it actually stimulated even greater creativity. I mean there is nothing like a blank sheet of paper and pen and pencil to begin drafting ideas and plans.

I enjoyed real conversations with my clients and co-workers. We had more meaningful dialogues, which led to deeper discussions and even more opportunities. I thought maybe I should go somewhat technology free more often.

Maybe you have done the same thing

in your family that other families have done. Things such as no cell phones at the dinner table or during any meal for that matter. Or all cell phones remain in the car when we go out to a movie or restaurant. I have even heard of some families that choose one of the days of the weekend to go completely technology-free as a family for the day.

When it comes to reading, I still prefer a hardcover or paperback book over any type of e-reading device. To me there is just something about the feel of a book compared to the e-readers.

Although I read on a regular basis, over these past two days I felt even more compelled to read as well as felt a sense of warmth and comfort with the book in my hand.

With technology comes advancements and efficiencies, I totally get that. But technology can also be a distraction and rob us of opportunities to interact with all of the people in our lives. It draws our attention unneces-

I don’t know about you, but I do believe I am going to build a technology-free day into my weekly schedule.

Maybe this makes me a dinosaur, I am not sure, but I know that it was freeing, it did stimulate creativity, connections to people were greater, and distractions were minimalized.

How about you? Could you use a break from technology? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can embrace the efficiencies that technology has to offer, but also spend time in a technology-free environment, it really will be a better than good week.

May 25, 2017 Penny, a female red-ruffed lemur, was born April 25 at the Denver Zoo. Zookeepers say she is doing well and visitors can now see her.

Lemur born at Denver Zoo STAFF REPORT

Penny, a red-ruffed lemur, was born recently at the Denver Zoo. Zookeepers say Penny and her mother, Sixpence, are healthy.

The pair were out of public view for several weeks to bond, but both have emerged at the zoo’s Emerald Forest building.

Penny, who arrived April 25, is the

second generation born at the Denver Zoo. Sixpence was born there in 1998.

Red-ruffed lemurs, like all lemurs, are native to Madagascar. Their numbers in the wild are unknown.

The Denver Zoo paired Sixpence with Mego, a male born at the San Diego zoo, under the recommendation of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Species Survival Plan.

‘The Luckiest People’ in first run at Curious Theatre Family issues are explored in play commissioned by local operation

IF YOU GO “The Luckiest People” plays through June 17 at Curious Theatre, 1080 Acoma St., Denver. Performances: 8 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays; 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: curioustheatre.org, 303-623-0524.

There are two living rooms, expertly designed by Charles Packard to set the scene at Denver’s Curious Theatre: on the lower level, a dingy looking living room in a retirement home apartment, almost done in sepia, with a sentimental landscape painting on the wall. The other, a bright, contemporary living room with a large abstract painting and red furniture, is backed by a wall of windows that bring the changing sky into the picture — an important element. They set a scene for a conflicted Jewish family, after a funeral for the recently deceased mother, Dorothy.

Meet sad, cranky father Oscar (Randy Moore, who observed that he’d played old men since he was a teen); thin-skinned doctor/son Richard (Eril Sandvold); Richard’s appealing, articulate partner David (John Jurachek); and Richard’s emotional (and funny) sister Laura (Karen Slack), who flew in from Shanghai to help sit Shiva. A look at the cast list assures the audience of the strong performances generally expected at Curious

Randy Moore plays the testy father, Oscar; Erik Sandvold is his distraught son Richard; John Jurachek is Richard’s partner in the world premiere of “The Luckiest People” at Curious Theatre.

in-residence — and the company has commissioned two more plays following this family and issues of middle age, in the spirit of “storytelling” the company has adopted.

“I don’t want to make jewelry from macaroni,” declares Oscar, who has refused all of the center’s activities.

Turns out he plans to move in with his son when his lease is up … But said son and partner are seriously talking about adopting 10-year-old Joshua and housing him in the spare bedroom.

In an effort to cheer Oscar up, they play “Funny Girl,” with its song about “people who need people are the luckiest people on the world” — thus the title.

There are funny lines and situations and sad ones in this well-crafted script, although the theme of family issues after a funeral would seem to be a bit overdone — probably because it allows for the accumulation of a cast of differing, quirky characters.

Skillfully directed by Chip Walton, the play looks at love, family relationships, careers, sandwich generation, women’s roles, marriage, children and aging — the stuff our lives are made of — offering a satisfying evening at the theater. Try to stay for the talkback with these articulate actors if possible.

Nine Calder sculptures come to Denver Botanic Gardens

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“All of a sudden, something magnificent happens,” said happy Denver Botanic Gardens director Brian Vogt, as he introduced an exhibit of works by important American sculptor Alexander Calder — a project seven years in the making.

The exhibit, “Calder Monumental,” running through Sept. 24, includes nine large Calder sculptures, including a graceful mobile, “Snow Flurry, May 14, 1959,” floating inside near the entrance. It was loaned by the Denver Art Museum. (Some readers may recall that storm!) Inside, there is also a video of Calder’s smaller, playful, wire sculpture circus: “Le Grande Cirque Calder,” which was entertaining a group of schoolchildren when we visited for a press preview.

At the walk near the entrance one is greeted by the black “Funghi Neri,” more than 9 feet tall and created from sheet metal, bolts and paint.

Calder made this one for himself, rather than to sell, his grandson said.

It beckons for the visitor to come into the garden and enjoy the juxtaposition of abstracted sculptures, trees and shrubs in all shapes and sizes and blossoms in every color imagin-

IF YOU GO “Calder Monumental” is exhibited at Denver Botanic Gardens, 1007 York St., Denver, through Sept. 14. Hours: May 14 to Sept.

See botanicgardens.org for information on programs and admission. Free parking. able. As spring phases into summer, changes in light will play with the sculptures and leafy green things will grow, making for a different picture almost daily.

“Funghi Neri” is one of several pieces loaned by the Calder Foundation, started in 1987 by the sculptor’s grandson, Alexander S. C. Rower, 53, who was an enthusiastic tour guide on April 27. “We have been collecting, exhibiting, preserving and interpreting art and archives since 1987,” he said. Also shepherding the distinctive works through their Denver debut was guest curator Alfred Pacquement, former director of Paris’ Pompidou Center for Modern Art, who observed, “It was difficult to do a show — museums did not want to let that Calder go for two months.”

Next along the path is “Tripes,” suggestive of the organ that is a popular food in France and elsewhere.

Then one arrives at “Untitled” (1976) a huge human figure (male of female or neither?). The anti-Vietnam War Calder left a hole in the forehead, designed to help move the piece, calling it a bullet hole.

Rower recalled childhood hours spent in his grandfather’s studio.

Although Calder’s works are sometimes whimsical, humorous, leading the public to think he was probably a funny fellow, “he was deadly serious” while creating his works. “Each had a life force.” Every bolt was precisely placed and had a meaning.

The public may be more accustomed to seeing Calder’s mobiles — many architects have commissioned them to enhance new buildings, but he also made standing pieces starting in the 1950s. During World War II, he couldn’t get sheet metal and began carving in wood and making plaster sculptures.

“Five Rudders” is set in the Monet Pool, which had to be drained to get the work installed. “Six Dots Over a Mountain” is also set in a pool. It is a standing mobile, not designed to be in a pool, but “this pool was ready to receive a sculpture,” according to Pacquement, who visited the gardens earlier to determine locations.

“There’s no fixed rule — each time, it’s a new experience.”

Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations for the City and County of Denver, Colorado, Case No. 17-08-0542P. The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) solicits technical information or comments on proposed flood hazard determinations for the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your community. These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. The FIRM and, if applicable, the FIS report have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to adopt or show evidence of having in effect to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. For more information on the proposed flood hazard determinations and information on the statutory 90-day period provided for appeals, please visit FEMA’s website at www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/bfe, or call the FEMA Map Information eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627).
