Pending projects face fees

GETTIN’ DOWN AT THE HOEDOWN

Council sets August vote on development charges

Littleton City Council will vote Aug. 20 on whether to start charging developers fees to help offset the impacts their projects have on the community.

It’s a timely discussion, as decisions on two major projects are scheduled to happen before that. On July 30, council will vote on the controversial Broadstone project proposed for the southwest corner of Littleton Boulevard and Bemis Street. City staff recommended that council approve it, while the city’s planning board unanimously rejected it on June 25.

The board and staff agreed on July 6 that Littleton Village, the long-anticipated project for the old Marathon Oil site, should be approved. Council will vote on that one Aug. 6.

City Manager Michael Penny says because the impact fee is collected when the developer pulls the building permit, all projects currently pending in the city will pay.

“No applicant is at that stage, so everyone pays from here forward,” he said. “It is our stance that no project can avoid the pending impact fees.”

He explains that Colorado also has a pending-ordinance doctrine, so the fees would apply to any application on the table when council approved the legislation creating them on first reading on July 16.

“The short answer is, under the ordinance as presented, all projects in the pipeline would have to pay the fees,” he said.

He said credit will be given to any developer who has already paid a public-facilities fee or the open-space fee, which these new fees will replace if approved.

BBC Research and Consulting says Littleton should be charging impact fees of $5,274 per dwelling unit for residential construction, and $1,811 per 1,000 square feet of commercial.

“In light of renewed interest in development and the prospect of considerable future development activity, the city council is considering development impact fees as part of its larger strategy to ensure that growth pays its own way and that existing residents and existing services are not financially burdened by new growth,” writes BBC’s Ford Frick in the recommendation.

The money can only be used for expansion of capital assets necessary due to growth, not maintenance. Littleton is mostly built out, so there likely will be more and more infill projects as developable land runs out. According to BBC, redevelopment will be charged only for net new space added.

If the Littleton Village plan is approved, it could bring roughly $4.7 million in residential fees and $450,000 in commercial

Champion dog groomer loves a challenge Henriksen hones skills through competition

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Fluffy is a dog fraught with irony.

He’s a bichon frise, a breed often touted as safe for people allergic to dogs. But sadly, Fluffy himself is allergic to a long list of things — cats, cotton, hemp, horses and more, including many ingredients common in grooming products.

“It’s so strange that a dog that’s supposed to be hypoallergenic for the benefit of all of us has all these insane allergies,” said Carolyn Brimson, Fluffy’s owner.

That’s why she feels lucky to have discovered groomer Christie Henriksen.

“She’s a good part of the ongoing general good health of our dog,” said Brimson.

Henriksen is conscientious about avoiding the multitudes of things Fluffy can’t tolerate, and she keeps a close eye out for the hot spots that indicate a flare-up. And to top it off, says Brimson, she’s an excellent groomer.

She’s proved that by achieving the level of master groomer and winning a bundle of first-place awards in National Dog Groomers Association of America competitions.

This week, she’s competing at an international challenge held in Las Vegas.

Henriksen has loved dogs all her life and got her first show dog, Kodiak, when she was 15. With guidance from other handlers, she practiced the finer points of grooming

No far-off land for these missionaries 10:45 a.m.

Bob, 65, sits on a low shady wall in the small quiet park sandwiched between the state Capitol and Civic Center in Denver.

Headphones in one ear, he is listening to Rush Limbaugh, his belongings packed tightly into the bulging backpacks on either side of him. Along with a few other men perched farther down the wall or lounging under leafy trees, he is waiting.

11:10.

The park is suddenly busy. Within minutes, a cluster of young men and women have set up white tents and tables upon which a buffet of food begins to appear.

11:45.

A line has started to form as trays of chicken shish kebab are brought to the tables, now laden with bowls and trays of watermelon and fruits, potato and green bean salads, chocolate chip cookies, water, lemonade and other flavored drinks.

“They give a good meal,” says Bob, eyes crinkling under a blue winter cap, the muffs pinned above his ears, three binder clips snapped on the brim. A sparse, black beard and mustache streaked with thick gray whiskers frame his tanned face.

The food is good. But the conversation is better.

“They’ll talk to you,” Bob says. “It’s pretty neat.”

They are young Catholic missionaries, who since Thanksgiving 2011 have turned the second Saturday of the month into Lunch in the Park for the homeless in downtown Denver. With help and donations from church volunteers around the metro area, they bring home-cooked meals to Lincoln Park, in the heat of summer and the cold of winter.

But the real gift they bring is one many take for granted — someone to talk to, someone to listen, a human connection.

“This lunch is wonderful,” Bill, 60, says in a soft voice as he sits on the grass, eating. “But that doesn’t even touch what they’ve done for me. ... I got a lot of my

dignity back from them.”

The missionaries of Christ in the City, a Catholic service organization that asks young people between 18 and 29 to dedicate one semester to a year working with the poor and other marginalized segments of society, come from throughout the country. They hope to grow spiritually while ministering — mind, body and spirit — to those in need.

They find connections to resources and mental health support, if needed. They provide food, sleeping bags, clothes. They talk about God, if asked.

But more than anything, they offer friendship.

Under a blue tent just across from the buffet, Kati Belsole places a statue of the Virgin Mary on a card table in preparation for the recitation of the rosary, which takes place before food is served.

She is 23, from New York, with a degree in theology, and she talks passionately about her desire to share God’s mercy with the poor and homeless.

But “part of our ministry is just that conversation element, showing people they have dignity and they’re worth it,” she says. “They’re worth it just because of the fact they’re a person.”

She arranges a vase of red and white fabric roses next to the statue, along with a large crucifix and wooden rosaries she’ll hand to those in the park who want them.

“We really want to know the person, their joys and their struggles,” Belsole says.

“It’s a relational thing. We really try to remember people’s names and their stories.”

Bill will tell you his story is one of redemption.

The missionaries found him on the 16th Street Mall nine months ago. He was drinking every day.

“They would stop and talk to me.” A slight man, he wears wire-rim glasses and a cap. “Without fail, if I was there, I would see them.”

He pauses, takes a bite from his plate.

“Well, I’ve had people make a little effort, but I’ve never had anyone come every day that I could count on.”

Recently, Bill says, a car hit him as he was crossing a street. The collision put him in the hospital for three weeks. “They would come see me every day, pray for me. When I started getting better, they still came by.”

Raised in the Catholic faith, Bill began talking about God. “They helped me get my life back spiritually, even physically.” He has not had a drink, he says, in five months. He is living at Samaritan House shelter, working toward a job and his own place. Early next month, he will see his sister from Indiana for the first time in 1½ years.

“They’ll just take you on a human basis,” Bill says. “People who have been in the position I was in, we just don’t have many people who we can talk to on a normal level, whatever that might be. And they gave me confidence to talk to other people I normally wouldn’t have talked to.”

He is quiet. “I don’t know how to put into words how thankful I am.”

Alex Lambis, 23, is a college graduate from Orlando with a degree in interpersonal communication. He spends two hours each day wandering the streets of Capitol Hill. He has come to know many of its homeless residents well.

There’s Zachary, artistic and creative.

And Art, tender and caring. Bernie is open and genuine. Jessica — loving, motherly.

“I’ve had people ask me why I’m out

there every day,” Alex says. “I say, `We’re just out here, to hang out with you guys and see how you’re doing.’ ... I think the constant presence makes a difference. It takes perseverance and constant effort and not giving up on people.”

Alex has learned much about faith and human dignity from his friends on the street. He’s become more compassionate, he says. And “I’ve come to realize there is beauty that can be drawn in the middle of suffering — even if the situation is bad and ugly, good can be drawn from it.”

On this Saturday in the park, he sits down next to Jessica. A pretty mother of two, she is 32. She has carefully braided her hair and shadowed her eyes. She wears hoops in her ears and bracelets, a bright red sundress and pink fingernail polish.

She is homeless, she says, because of a series of bad decisions. Her children are with her mother.

Jessica savors the home-cooked meals.

“They’re always made with love, and that’s what gets me.”

She is grateful, too, for Alex and the others.

“They pray with us, and we need all the prayers we can get,” she says. “They’re here for us, for me. Just being there and listening.”

She glances at Alex, arms hooked around his legs, whose year in Denver is almost over.

“He’ll be leaving soon,” she says. “And then I’ll have to start all over.”

1:15 p.m.

Tables have been cleared and leftover food given away. Pockets of people remain, sitting on the ground or standing, missionaries and their street friends still deep in conversation.

“The ’64 Wildcat — the red one I was talking about?” a man with long, gray scraggly hair and beard says to his young listener.

ate, “The Independent’s 125th birthday e is serves to remind us all of the powerful, ene of during virtues of community journalism,” andsays editor Chris Rotar, and that’s exactly what H.V. Bullock was going for in 1888.

That’s the year Bullock took pen to paper of and wrote, “Now that Littleton has a newsd paper, let everyone strive to make her the wears most beautiful city in the Platte River valht ley. If you don’t, somebody else will. The h. day is long gone by for Littleton to slumber. a Men with vim are coming in who will push re things along.”

Then he took paper to printing press, als. and on July 21 of that year, Issue No. One of hat’s the Littleton Independent was born.

“For 125 years, the Independent has been the historical record of the life of Littleton and its people — its successes, challenges, joys, sorrows,” says Colorado y’re Community Media president and publisher d Jerry Healey. “From the potluck to council actions to births, deaths and marriages, the paper has been a thread binding the comis munity. We are caretakers of a grand tradition and exceptional privilege. With dedind cated planning and community support, the Independent will continue to be the publication of record for its readers and a committed watchdog of its community.”

Garrett Ray was the editor from the mider 1960s through the early 1980s. He and his main,wife, Nina, moved away after that, but returned 25 years later. He says though the eep city has grown and changed a lot since then, a lot has stayed the same, too.

“We are greatly pleased that Littleton and as the Independent have retained so much of ng

Congratulations, Jerry and Ann Healey, on your success in keeping this 125-year-old `kid’ such a valued part of our lives.”

Much merriment is planned to mark the auspicious day over the next few weeks.

The Independent will have a float in the Western Welcome Week Grand Parade for the first time in more than a decade, and the words “Extra, Extra” will resound along Main Street as old-timey paperboys distribute samples.

Veteran cop facing serious drug charges Littleton police officer is in federal custody

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Littleton Police Officer Jeffrey Allan Johnston, 46, is facing charges that could mean life in prison after being arrested by the FBI on drug charges July 19.

Cmdr. Trent Cooper said the 22-year LPD veteran was taken into custody at his home without incident.

“The alleged drug activity was confined to his personal life and there is no indication or belief that any criminal misconduct occurred in relation to his work with the Littleton Police Department,” said Cooper.

According to an FBI affidavit, on July 15, Johnston called a known drug dealer who has peddled his wares during parties at

Johnston’s Parker home in the past.

Johnston asked if he could buy between 40 and 50 ecstasy pills. The FBI then conducted a “controlled delivery” of 37 pills and 6 grams of ecstasy powder, for which Johnston paid $1,300. Following the exchange, Johnston was taken into custody and his home was searched.

In the kitchen, agents found the fresh delivery and a Colt Officers Model .45-caliber pistol loaded with seven rounds in the magazine and one in the chamber. They also found suspected cocaine, suspected steroids, hundreds of suspected prescription pills, additional firearms, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, empty pill pouches, a drug test kit and a scale.

Johnston was taken to the Jefferson County Detention Center originally. He is now in federal custody, though FBI spokesperson Jeff Dorschner declined to specify where.

Johnston appeared in court in to be advised of his rights and the charges on the afternoon of July 22.

He faces one count of possession ecstasy with intent to distribute, which carries a penalty of not more than 20 years in federal prison and a fine of not more than $1,000,000; one count of maintaining a drug-involved premises, which carries a penalty of not more than 20 years in federal prison and a fine of not more than $500,000; one count of possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug-trafficking crime, which carries a penalty of not less than five years and not more than life in federal prison and a fine of up to $250,000; and one count of using a telephone to facilitate a drug trafficking felony, which carries a penalty of not more than four years in federal prison and up to a $500,000 fine.

Johnston has been placed on unpaid administrative leave.

Cooper called him a model employee who was professional, meticulous and always willing to help. He was most recently assigned to the traffic motorcycle unit, conducting traffic enforcement and accident investigations. In the early and mid-1990s, according to Cooper, he was a member of the recently disbanded South Metro Drug Task Force.

“If the charges are true, it’s an absolute disappointment, mixed with anger and sadness” said Cooper. “ We expect our officers to uphold a certain code and a certain behavior. We hold them accountable just like we would any other citizen that made the same mistake.”

The government is asking the court that Johnston be held in custody without bond pending a resolution of his case.

A detention hearing and a preliminary hearing are scheduled to take place on July 25 at 3 p.m.

Insanity plea entered in mom’s death Accused killer had many Court order may jeopardize client’s rights, defense says

By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com A Centennial man accused of killing his mother and then dismembering her body has entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity.

However, a court order requiring Ari Misha Liggett to cooperate with state-appointed mental-health experts may compromise his constitutional rights, according to his attorney.

Liggett, 24, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of his mother, 56-year-old Beverly Liggett Liggett. He appeared July 15 in an Arapahoe County courtroom before Judge William B. Sylvester, who accepted his plea and ordered the former University of Colorado student to undergo further mental-health testing.

Sylvester laid out a 23-point advisement to Liggett and his attorney, Jennifer Ahnstedt, detailing the conditions and consequences of his plea.

Ahnstedt argued that some of the stipulations issued by the court in the document may be unconstitutional.

Specifically, she points to what she claims is a conflict between her client’s

right to assert the Fifth Amendment and the court’s demand that Liggett answer questions and cooperate fully with mental-health professionals.

Senior Deputy District Attorney Brian Sugioka objected, insisting that the statutory definition of “non-cooperation” was “not that difficult.”

Ahnstedt asked the court for a separate hearing to wrangle with the issues before Liggett would be obligated to undergo the 60-day evaluation.

“Once the evaluation is complete, the statute comes into play and we’ve lost the opportunity, if desired, to assert the Fifth Amendment,” she said.

The court-ordered mental-health evaluation may help determine whether Liggett serves time in prison or in a state mental facility, if convicted.

Sylvester, who stepped down in April as the judge in the trial of Aurora theater shooting suspect James Holmes, said he shared the concerns raised by the defense, but would not interrupt the evaluation by granting a hearing in the middle of the process.

Sylvester did permit the litigation of such constitutional issues, should they arise, at a later date.

Liggett underwent a competency exam in February at the Colorado Mental Health Institute in Pueblo and was deemed competent to stand trial.

He is suspected of poisoning his mother and then cutting her body into seven pieces to hide her death so he could use her credit cards.

sources for prescriptions Records show more than 21,000 pills in five years

By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com An Oct. 4 preliminary hearing has been set for a Centennial woman who is accused in the overdose death of one man and is allegedly linked to the deaths of three others.

Almeda Beth Sullivan appeared in Arapahoe County District Court on July 15, facing one count of first-degree murder with “extreme indifference” in the death of 21-year-old Carter Lee Higdon, who died of a drug over- Sullivan dose in her home on Oct. 1, 2011.

But the 50-year-old former teacher’s aide is also allegedly linked to the 2008 overdose deaths of Sierra Renee Cochran, 19; Lindsey Jo Saidy, 28; and Martynas “Tez” Simankas, 20.

Known to many, including the overdose victims, as “Ally,” Sullivan is accused of selling large quantities of prescription drugs to students, then mixing bizarre combinations that, according to one of Higdon’s friends interviewed by investigators, would push people to the brink of what their bodies could

physically handle and then would try “to bring them back.”

Records obtained from Colorado’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program by investigators show Sullivan had multiple sources for obtaining excessive amounts of narcotics, totaling more than 21,000 pills from 2007-11.

It’s thought that Sullivan used the name of a co-worker to obtain drugs, obtained additional pills from one of her doctors for cash payments off the books, and filled prescriptions for her husband, Charles Sullivan, months after his death.

Records collected during a 2011 search of Sullivan’s home show she held an associate’s degree in respiratory care, and obtained a bachelor’s degree from Southern Illinois University in health care administration.

Transcripts indicate she had specialized training in anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, respiratory care and respiratory pharmacology, as well as courses in advanced cardiac life support.

Investigators state that Sullivan forged a last will and testament, along with insurance forms, after her husband, Charles Sullivan, died in 201o. A separate case has been filed in connection with those allegations.

Sullivan was employed by the Cherry Creek School District from 2003 to 2005 as a bus driver and teacher’s aide.

She is being held without bond in the Arapahoe County jail.

Mom of five running for school board G Perez has long history of involvement in Littleton district

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Kelly Perez figures five kids and 18 years in the Littleton Public School District pretty much make her an expert, so she’s running for school board.

“I’ve been here long enough to be a walking historian,” she said.

Perez has been on nearly every committee in the district and served as president of the parent-teacher organizations at Damon Runyon Elementary, Powell Middle School and Arapahoe and Heritage high schools — the last two at the same time. Prior to having kids, she was a social worker. More recently, she says she took a leave of absence from her job as an education consultant at Xerox to run her campaign.

Her youngest two kids are still in the district, one in sixth grade at Powell and the other a sophomore at Arapahoe.

“I am invested as a parent first,” she said.

“I have a panoramic view of start to finish, and I’ve seen what went well and what didn’t. … Parents, students and teachers all have to work together and support each other to benefit our children.”

She said there are no huge elephants in the room, though there are always challenges. She praised the current board members for their cohesiveness and effectiveness.

“LPS is very healthy and has a good program,” she said. “That doesn’t mean we can’t tweak, and we probably will tweak because the demographics are changing. What I don’t want to see is someone Perez come in and say, `I want change, I want to rip apart everything we’re doing and start new.’”

Perez really dug in during the successful mill-levy campaign in 2010.

“It was wonderful that the citizens and the community came together, and that they cared about the schools,” she said.

She supports the current board’s contemplation of placing a bond issue on the same ballot her name will be on in Novem-

ber, saying much maintenance is needed.

“It’s not a tax increase, but I’ll be honest.

We are asking them to forgo the tax reduction,” she said.

Early literacy is one of her passions.

While she knows STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) are important, she believes reading is the foundation of learning. She recalls successfully fighting to keep literacy teachers during her time on the financial advisory committee, despite opposition.

“I was proud that I could stand up and defend what I truly believed the kids needed to be successful,” she said.

And she’s proud of the district for giving all kids opportunities, from gifted to at-risk and everything in between.

Chamber Women in Leadership Conference to Inspire Attendees

On Friday, September 20th, the South Metro Denver Women in Leadership (WIL) will be hosting its 5th Annual Women’s Leadership Conference themed “WIL to Prosper.” This exciting and enlightening event will take place at the Embassy Suites DTC, 10250 E. Costilla Ave, Centennial, between 7:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. The day will include a nourishing breakfast, morning and afternoon breakout sessions, the Annual Women’s Leadership Awards Luncheon, networking and cocktails. The Conference is sponsored this year by Safeway-Denver Division, University of Colorado Hospital-Lone Tree Health Center, Schomp Automotive and Park Meadows Retail Resort.

During the Women’s Leadership Awards Luncheon, four outstanding women who have helped to shape Denver business will be honored. KWGN news & talk show anchor Natalie Tysdal will be the Keynote Speaker. With a degree in broadcasting, Natalie has been with KWGN since 2002 and anchored the Emmy-award winning News2 This Morning show prior to her current position.

According to her web site (www. natalietysdal.com), “There is no greater

compliment than to entrust a reporter with your story. It can be personal and sometimes difficult. I’ve learned about journalism from both sides of the camera as the subject of stories and the reporter. I choose my words very carefully and I treat every story with the respect it deserves.” It is that sincere yet no-nonsense and honest approach that has won the hearts of many and gained the trust of viewers.

To facilitate bringing together women of different backgrounds and discuss some of the leading challenges and issues women leaders are faced with everyday, the conference will have a total of nine breakout sessions featuring topics for both business and personal development. These sessions will offer a variety of seminars, workshops and roundtable and will have many opportunities for speakers, trainers and facilitators to showcase their expertise.

With budget talks quickly approaching, chapter members will meet with Members of Congress to urge action “I am honored to travel alongside other Coloradoans and deliver our message directly to our leaders. We remain committed to letting Senators Bennet and Udall and their fellow leaders in D.C. know that rushed, stop-gap measures like sequestration are not the answer. Our nation needs a comprehensive deficit-reduction agreement, or ‘grand bargain,’ to create an environment conducive to stability and growth.

We believe this to be an urgent matter and the time for action is now.”

Group explains its stance on development Some residents feel overlooked by city

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Last week, Steve Anderson spoke out about his ongoing attempts to rezone his property from commercial to residential, and the barricades he feels some Littleton residents have thrown up in front of him.

This week, two of those residents spoke about why they feel they must.

“I feel like all of a sudden nobody cares about the current citizens, all they care about is getting land developers in here and making them happy,” said Susan Burgstiner, who owns Marketing on Demand in downtown Littleton and lives nearby on Sterne Parkway.

Burgstiner and Paul Bingham are active with Citizens for Rational Development, a group fighting Anderson’s plan and other high-density developments throughout the city.

At the heart of the dispute with Anderson is the old sheriff’s building at Littleton Boulevard and Lake Street, built in 1959 as the Intermountain Rural Electric Association’s headquarters. It’s on the city’s list of merit, though not a legally protected his-

Castle Rock

toric property.

Anderson bought it in 2003 and created office space for his law firm and other businesses.

Alliance Residential wants to buy the property and rezone it from commercial to allow a 250-unit, six-story apartment complex called Broadstone at Littleton Station.

CRD is adamantly opposed, listing concerns such as traffic, parking, height, mass, crowding and, especially, neighborhood character.

“I’d love to see that building at Bowles and Santa Fe, located in a neighborhood where it meets current standards and zon- Anderson ing, and where it wouldn’t impact any homeowners,” said Burgstiner.

CRD says Anderson cares only about making money and his own property rights while forgetting everyone else in the neighborhood has property rights, too.

“He’s not just asking to build something, he’s asking to change the rules that were in place that everybody else lived by when they bought their property,” said Burgstiner.

it.”

There are lots of people who don’t need urging to make themselves heard, and Burgstiner acknowledges they’re not always polite about it.

There have been public comments suggesting apartments attract “riff raff” and transients who aren’t invested in the community.

“It’s not about the renters, it’s about the impact of the building on the existing neighbors,” said Burgstiner.

“This group gets accused of being naysaying, no-change old farts. It’s not true. We have some younger people. We have some business owners. And we’re not against all high density, we’re against the projects that are going to ruin the lives of the people who are already here. And I think they’re making a mistake about calling us that, just like some of ours are making a mistake by calling renters names.”

Anderson says he doesn’t yet know what he’ll do if council rejects this plan, although current zoning allows for pretty much any commercial use with very few restrictions.

CRD, on the other hand, knows exactly what it will do.

“We’re going to elect some new council people, certainly,” said Bingham. “And then we’re going to drive it to a vote of the people.”

Bingham says whatever ends up being built there needs to conform to the Littleton Boulevard Corridor Study, which calls for a maximum of three stories, an attractive west facade, congruence with the existing neighborhood character and lower density. City planners now say this plan does, but they rejected an earlier version.

But CRD worries that the quest for the dollar will rule the day, as some members think it did earlier this year, when city council allowed the owners of the downtown Nevada Place apartment complex to double the density of its second phase.

“City council has set a precedent that we are all terrified of,” said Burgstiner.

Anderson believes there’s a silent majority out there that supports the project, but Burgstiner begs to differ. She notes that CRD members have been pounding the pavement, gathering signatures to petition issues onto the November ballot. One would require at least a 5-2 council vote to approve a rezone rather than just a simple majority.

Of the 60 or so people Burgstiner has talked to, she says only two have refused to sign.

“They are silent, or they don’t have time to show up,” she said. “But if you give them a vehicle to have their voice heard, they use

Program digging deeper into public policy An additional in-depth view on a tough question is always valuable.

That’s the result we are hoping for following the announcement last week of an economic measurement initiative backed by several regional entities and tasked to be conducted by the Business Research Division of the University of Colorado at Boulder’s Leeds School of Business. The school will run the program on behalf of main funding sponsors the Metro Denver Economic Development Corp., the Denver South Economic Development Partnership and the Common Sense Policy Roundtable.

This econometric model developed by Regional Economic Models Inc., or REMI, promises to break out costs, benefits, positives and negatives of state issues in greater detail for lawmakers, business leaders and

our view in turn the public. The first project will take on Initiative 22 — expected to be on the ballot in November — which is a great choice.

Gov. John Hickenlooper has already given an initial nod to Initiative 22, the type of tax measure that usually needs a push from the sitting governor to have a shot.

The initiative asks voters to increase the state income tax rate from 4.63 to 5 percent for those making an income of $75,000 or

question of the week

Should water restrictions be relaxed?

In light of some recent heavy rains and the forecast of the more to come, Colorado Community Media asked people if they

thought existing water restrictions should be relaxed to permit residents to water their lawns more frequently.

“I don’t think water restrictions should be changed because we should be doing what we can to conserve water.”

— Lisa Olken, Littleton

“We need to build another dam and stop giving all our water to Las Vegas and southern California.”

— Mike Nicholls, Lone Tree

“The restrictions don’t seem too severe and probably are needed because we should cut back on water use so we can fill up the water storage areas.”

— Gerry Lane, Highlands Ranch

“I am pretty happy … now that Denver has changed its rules from only allowing lawn watering two days a week to allowing watering three days a week.”

— Jeannie Frick, Denver

When agreeing to disagree, agree Whether it is in a business situation or a family setting, so many relationships are impacted and decisions avoided because of a lack of consensus or our inability to reach a unanimous conclusion.

We reach the point of being polite and saying something like, “Let’s just agree to disagree,” and we believe we can move on hoping the other person is under the same impression. But what did we really accomplish?

In some cases we completely avoid making the decision and in that situation both people lose. And in other cases we walk away feeling offended or hurt as our opinions are taken out of context, and before we know it the relationship becomes strained. Again, everyone loses.

You see the issue is that although we use the saying, “let’s just agree to disagree,” we don’t actually stick to it. Instead we walk away and tell others about the disagreement or we try and tell our side of the story to anyone who will listen. And the person we were arguing with is probably doing the very same thing.

So instead of both parties losing and feeling like they didn’t have an opportunity to eat at the restaurant of their choice, or seeing the movie that they had been waiting to see, what if we practiced a different technique? Instead of agreeing to disagree, come up with option B, or a second and third choice.

It works the same way in business. So many times when I am coaching a client, they share a story about a peer or manager, or sometimes even their boss or a customer, where they just could not see eye-to-eye. It created angst and tension and people started operating in silos. My guidance for my client was to be really prepared before going into their next meeting.

If people started office politics or jockeying for position, be prepared with options for the items and issues that are important to the greater good of the company or customer.

It is so easy for a meeting to get off track as people champion their own agendas, and if we take the time to be ready with alternative solutions and consider the needs

and wants of others we can mitigate the chances of a situation arising where everyone loses. Many authors and experts have used the term, “Seek first to understand and then to be understood,” and when find ourselves in a combative situation or even a minor disagreement we should take the time to think through things from the perspective of others. This is a great first step to defusing those minor disagreements that sometimes escalate to big ugly arguments.

I am simply suggesting that instead of always trying to win for the sake of winning and ending up losing anyway, it is always better to find a way to agree on a solution that best meets everyone’s needs.

And if we take this path, take the high road, and people still want to argue or fight with us, all we can do is walk away knowing that we really did try everything in our power to come to an agreement. And if they decide to become angry with us or revert to talking about us to other people, we should not worry. All we can do is manage what we do and say, we cannot manage or stress about how others act and feel. My good friend Frank Singer reminded me of a quote, “Other people’s opinions of us is none of our business.”

Do you focus on the disagreement or the path to agreement? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com.

When we are prepared with alternative solutions and have a heart and mind focused on the needs of others, it will be a better than good week.

less and 5.9 percent for income above that amount. Under the measure, the Legislature has put forth a plan to infuse the state with about $950 million for education.

We are starting to see many questions generated about what the real impacts will be and where the money will actually go. So we are very pleased to see this economic model launched in time for this momentous decision.

Typically in coverage of these major measures, we come across various evaluations, but too often the information comes from parties with clear interests — in extremes that can extend from hardened opposition to increased taxes to open arms for all funding for education.

Kevin McCasky, president and CEO at Jefferson County Economic Develop-

ment Corporation, is among those who welcomes the added analysis. He said that while the state does well breaking out the expenditures behind major policy changes, the full fiscal impacts are not as clear. In addition to producing more complete analysis, he said the econometric model will be neutral, not colored by political frameworks.

We have been reminded that the econometric model is a tool, but at first look it appears to be a very good one. Our hope is that this new analysis offers a valuable breakout that covers key factors quickly and clearly in a way that cuts to the core of issues more quickly. Further we hope to see the process have an impact in the vetting process for public policy in formative stages.

The running of the dummies “Three gored, 23 others injured in running of the bulls.” It’s simply not enough. I won’t be satisfied until tens upon tens are gored and injured.

It’s extremely entertaining. Or maybe it’s the adrenaline rush that makes it worth it to the runners and the spectators. I think it’s 19th-century.

“Tension soared when one of the animals charged a 31-year-old Spaniard and tossed him on the ground with his horns for almost 30 seconds as fellow runners tried to pull it away by its tail. The man clung to one of the horns as screams were heard all around.”

I like it. I like it very much.

Six bulls are let loose in the morning to run in the Pamplona encierro. Later in the day they are slaughtered in the bullring.

Runners, who just sang a benediction (“Macho Macho Man”) are prohibited from “inciting” the bulls.

What do you call it, what they do, if it’s not inciting? Let’s reverse things. Let six of these imbeciles loose and have hundreds of bulls chase them around.

There’s nothing bold, brave, heroic, courageous, dashing or daring about purposefully herding and chasing animals to their death.

I know it’s cultural (stupidity), like dogfighting and cockfighting. I know it’s traditional (stupidity). But isn’t it about time to look at these animals differently, perhaps with some respect?

“Every year,” a petition website says, “in Denmark, specifically the Faroe Islands, innocent and helpless Calderon dolphins are slaughtered brutally by the Danes. Why you may ask? Simply because. A pointless and stupid right of passage to manhood” (“Macho Macho Man”).

Slaughtering a dolphin to prove that you are a man is a right of passage to ignorance.

The Independent

Hemingway would never buy me a drink. Neither would Picasso. I wouldn’t let the best matador in Spain wash my car.

There are complete yahoos on The History Channel who boast about slaughtering alligators. I watch the channel all of the time, except when “Swamp People” is on.

It’s as if they turned programming over to a Hatfield or McCoy for an hour.

I know there are women who run with the bulls, but most of the runners are men, aggressively masculine men, who must reek of testosterone.

I also know that there are men who fly to Pamplona to have their testosterone inhaled by other men. You probably could get pregnant just standing in line at the Pamplona Starbucks.

Running with the bulls is as foreign to me as runways. Running with the designers doesn’t make me angry or sad, it just gives me the all-out creeps. But bull running and fashion shows have big audiences, ones that I will never touch. I just looked at my shelter dog and said that I was glad there is no running of the dachshunds.

He reminded me that there is. Even my little friend’s breed is subjected to human condescension.

Go bulls! Go dachshunds!

Council in favor of replacing boilers, lift

By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com

onoThe Englewood City Council gave conit pe sensus approval at the July 8 study session le to replace two boilers and the lift at the Englewood Recreation Center, although the y money is not included in the 2013 budget. re Mike Flaherty, deputy city manager, said e to vet- no money is in the budget for these repairs, tive so the council will have to approve a supplemental appropriation of about $140,000 from the public improvement fund reserves to pay for the two projects.

The approval of the funding for the two projects is scheduled to be on the city council’s July 15 agenda. The quick action is being taken so the two projects can be done during the rec center’s annual weeklong closure for maintenance in August.

Dave Henderson, deputy public works director, brought the issues to the city council at the July 8 study session.

“We have three boilers at the recreation center. One is working OK, one is working on and off and the other isn’t working at all,” Kahm said. “The recreation center uses hot water for the showers in the locker rooms, to keep the water warm in the pool and to heat the building in the winter. Right now, we have enough hot water to meet summer needs.”

He added that should the second boiler fail, there will not be enough hot water for regular recreation center operation. Also, there has to be two fully operational boilers in order to produce enough hot water to heat the building when it gets cold.

Her goal is to create a spa experience for the dogs that’s equal to what humans love, and she even hopes to add a doggie masseuse eventually.

The estimated cost of replacing the aging equipment with two high-efficiency boilers is $110,000. The boiler that is still operating will be kept as a backup.

All three boilers are original equipment installed in 1984. Henderson said the life expectancy for each of the boilers is 25 years. Regular maintenance and repairs have made it possible to extend the boilers an additional five years.

Another issue is the lift that provides handicapped access to the second floor of the recreation center.

There have been repeated calls to repair the aging lift. Rick Kahm, public works director, said the lift was installed in 2000 and is wearing out.

“The lift operates on a screw-type system When the car stops between floors with someone in it, staff members have to manually crank it down to the ground floor,” he said. “We have had individuals trapped in the elevator between floors for as long as 45 minutes.”

Kahm noted the company that services the elevator proposed replacing it with a more efficient hydraulic system at a cost between $25,000 and $30,000.

The aging Englewood Recreation Center handicapped lift, installed in 2000, often needs repairs and there is a proposal to replace it. The cost will be $25,000 to $30,000 and the plan is to do the repair during the August week the recreation center is closed for repairs.

Under consideration are Littleton Village (900), Villages of Belleview (346), Broadstone at Littleton Station (250) and Meadows at Platte Canyon (250).

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Tap the imagination of an 11-year-old boy and you never know what you might discover. Take a gander into STEM School seventh-grader Michal Bodzianowski’s and you may find a scientist in the making.

Bodzianowski recently learned an experiment he proposed will be conducted on the International Space Station over a six-week period beginning this November.

One of 300 sixth- and eighth-graders at the Highlands Ranch school to complete a proposal this spring, Bodzianowski was one of three selected by teachers, parents and a few engineers from nearby Raytheon to have their experiments submitted to the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program.

Out of 3,000 national submissions, Bodzianowski’s experiment, “What are the effects of the creation of beer in microgravity and is it possible?” was just one of 11 selected to launch aboard Space X Mission 4 on Nov. 11 from Cape Canaveral in Florida.

Bodzianowski will attend the launch with his father, Tom, and celebrate seeing his experiment go up into space just two days after his 12th birthday.

“It’s going to be one of the best birthday

STEM School and Academy seventh-grader Michal Bodzianowski works on an experiment at the school over the summer. The 11-year-old from Highlands Ranch is one of 11 students nationwide whose experiments will be explored in space this fall as part of the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program.

state, to get my experiment to fly into space, I never expected this.”

Bodzianowski selected the subject matter for his experiment after researching what experiments had already been conducted in space and after reading a book about beer being more popular than water in medieval times.

He said he also had heard that wine was once made in space, so he wondered if beer could be too.

“It was kind of a surprise to us,” said Tom Bodzianowski on the subject. “He has never tried beer, but he is very interested in chemical reactions and creating things.

He is very hands-on. One day, he just came home and asked for all the ingredients.”

And while Michal began running experiments at home, he was not setting out to create his own batch of beer, but instead testing a variety of yeast reactions. He said his hope is that if one can make beer in space, then alcohol should also be able to be created for emergency medical purposes.

“We are calling it Colorado’s first microbrewery in space,” said Bodzianowski’s teacher Sharon Combs, adding that Michal’s experiment will fly side by side with a number of industry experiments as well as the other 10 selected by the SSEP. “When I heard about the concept, I thought NASA would never approve it, but it just shows how much fun science can be,” said Penny Eucker, executive director of the school.

“We have only one experiment from Colorado going, and I’m thinking, of course, it’s Colorado, it’s got to be beer.”

Tee time: There’s an app for that South Suburban launches smartphone tool for golfers

By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com South Suburban Park and Recreation District has created a smartphone app that will allow golfers to view and book available tee times at all four district golf courses straight from their phone.

The app is the newest way to book tee times in addition to the District’s website, www.sspr.org, the golf site, GolfNow, or by directly calling any South Suburban golf course.

The app is available free of charge, and according to district spokeswoman Jamie DeBartolomeis, will be available in the online Android app store as well as from the District’s website.

An iPhone version will be available in the near future.

DeBartolomeis said the move is meant

to provide patrons with more convenient ways to book their tee times, but admits it will also improve scheduling efficiencies as well.

The application is not meant to replace current the district’s current scheduling system, but rather enhance it.

“Golfers can still reserve tee time online, in person or by calling us directly,” she said.

This marks the district’s first venture into smartphone and tablet-based applications, and DeBartolomeis says more features and functionalities are on the way.

“Eventually, the plan is to add things like class registrations, league schedules, trail maps and more,” she said.

District golf courses include Lone Tree Golf Course, Littleton Golf Course, and South Suburban Golf Course and Family Sports Golf Course in Centennial.

To download the app, visit the Google Play Store at https://play.google.com or contact South Suburban directly at 303798-5131.

Bans on open burning called off Staff report Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson has canceled the open burn ban issued June 13 for the county, the city of Centennial and Cherry Creek State Park.

Englewood followed suit, announcing the lifting of its open burning ban on the city’s website.

Additional moisture and favorable weather conditions prompted the move, according to a press release from Robin-

son’s office.

The sheriff’s office and local fire departments will continue to monitor the potential fire danger and will initiate open burning bans as conditions require. Although the level of danger for fires has modified, residents are encouraged to exercise caution when burning or interacting with any fire source.

For additional information, please contact the sheriff’s office at 720-8744165.

SSPR awards grants

South Suburban Parks and Recreation has announced the recipients of its Matching Gifts Program, which allows partner organizations to help improve parks, facilities and programs.

Projects selected this year include the completion of the planting of crabapple trees along the Crabapple Route at Sterne, Ketring, Gallup, Little’s Creek, Carbone, Footbridge and Charlie Emley parks; enhanced maintenance of a soccer field at Cornerstone Park; a repair to the scoreboard deck and TV installation and outdoor bar extension at Lone Tree Golf Club; planting of five trees on the Foxridge greenbelt; the improvement of an existing dirt path to a trail in the Foxridge neighborhood; the purchase of two-way radios and headsets and a laptop for Franklin Pool; a sound system for swim meets and a permanent display case for Holly Pool; kiln repair and kiln furniture for the pottery studio; landscaping at The Knolls’ clubhouse; and planting two pine trees and adding a crusher-fine trail to the Tiffany neighborhood’s sidewalks.

Handymen needed

Littleton’s Volunteer Handyman program, organized by Dr. Chuck Fraser, needs additional volunteers to do minor indoor repairs within the city of Littleton.

Homeowners who live inside city boundaries and are unable do their own repairs due to age, disability or financial problems can contact Fraser via the Buck Center.

Fraser says they have about 50 calls a year, so it is not a high demand on a volunteer’s time, but he does need additional handymen he can call on for help.

Contact him at 303-794-3676 (home) or leave a message at the Buck Center, 303730-4615

City nets open-space funds

The Arapahoe County commissioners have awarded more than $1.2 million in funds for parks, open space and trails to the city of Littleton during the annual share-back ceremony June 28.

Based on its population, Littleton received $823,032 to be used to purchase, enhance or maintain parks, trails, recreation and open space.

In addition, the city applied for two grants that were both awarded funding.

The Lee Gulch Overlook at 6581 S. Santa Fe Drive won a grant of $125,000 with an equal match from the city.

The funds will be used to design and construct improvements including new trailhead signs, a trail connection from the parking lot, seating at the overlook and trail access to the pond.

A second grant for $250,000, also with an equal match from the city, will be used at Creekside Experience. Formerly known as the Murray property at 4829 S. Santa Fe Drive, the city council formally adopted the name Creekside Experience in July.

The nearly six-acre park will feature some unique amenities. A plaza area, a soft surface trail, and steps to the edge of Big Dry Creek will all be within view from the Tree

House Tower.

South Suburban Parks and Recreation will provide $62,500 in funds to each of these projects. Littleton’s match on both parks will come from the Open Space Fund.

When the owner hit a rock and damaged the driveshaft of his 2012 Chevrolet 3500 diesel pickup truck, he asked Bill’s Englewood Driveshaft to build a replacement.

“The rock but a big dent in the aluminum driveshaft, so we have to make a new one,” Bill Farris said July 11 as he and his wife, Shantel, worked on the project. “Our motto is if it needs a driveshaft, we’ll build it. Each project is different and this project is pretty straightforward, so we can complete in a few hours.”

A driveshaft is a mechanical component of a vehicle’s drive train that transmits torque and rotation from the engine and transmission to the wheels that propel the vehicle.

The shop entrance is located off the alley between Broadway and Lincoln Street, in the block between Floyd and Girard avenues.

The shop is compact, with all the spare parts and specialized equipment needed to complete the projects.

While most drivers may never experience a driveshaft problem, the demand for the work done at Bill’s Englewood Driveshaft at 3364½ S. Broadway keeps the staff busy, and Farris is considering hiring additional staff and possible moving to another Englewood location to have more room to fill the driveshaft orders.

“I am the third member of the Farris family to operate this shop,” Bill said as he began work on the aluminum driveshaft. “My grandpa Viven opened the shop in 1977. My dad Bob ran it for a while. He wanted to run his survival equipment shop on Broadway so I took over.”

He said his grandfather got started building driveshafts when driveshafts installed in many models of 1970s Cadillacs caused excessive vibration because of poor driveshaft balance.

“Grandpa was one of two places in the state equipped to build new driveshafts for those luxury cars. He also began getting requests to build driveshafts for race

cars and other specialty vehicles, and our company is still at it.”

Farris said his shop is equipped to help vehicle owners solve problems, whether the challenge is building a lighter driveshaft to reduce the weight or to build a balanced driveshaft to eliminate vibration problems.

“Our family has always tried to treat all our customers the way we would want to be treated if we were asking for the service our shop provides,” the 1980 Englewood High School graduate said. “We want to turn out a quality project to meet the customer’s needs. Our policy is to start with the best possible raw materials because you can’t build a good house on a crappy foundation.”

In the early years, most of the shop’s business came from referrals and from print advertising. Farris said technology changed all that.

“I began advertising on the Internet, which opened up a worldwide market for us. Many of our orders come to us by email from people we will never meet in person,” he said. “On the average, we build 20 to 25 driveshafts a day. Many are for local customers, but we also ship our driveshafts to customers in Australia, England and other countries overseas.”

Farris said he has always worked on cars and, while at Englewood High School, he attended the auto shop classes and helped start the club where students customize their cars.

“I love speed and today, I get my current throttle therapy going off-road or crushing cars with my monster truck,” he said. “I go to the monster truck winter nationals at the National Western Stock Show complex. The first time was a little scary when I hit the throttle to jump some cars but it also gave me a rush that you can’t describe in words. But, it was a great experience and I look forward to getting that rush again whether I am jumping a line of cars or going airborne when I am going off-road and going airborne while traveling more than 100 miles an hour in the desert.”

Shot, a high energy, six-piece rock band from southern park, bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the music.

Distillery missing beloved bathtub Gin maker offers free drinks for return of 400-pound vessel

By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Andrew Causey makes gin.

Although the spirits he channels with partner Mitch Abate at the Downslope Distillery are far from the storied bathtub hooch made during Prohibition, he does keeps a bathtub around as a sort of a sentimental tribute to days gone by.

But as Causey opened his distillery the morning of July 7, he noticed something was missing.

That something was the 400-pound cast iron bathtub that used to welcome tourists and tasters to the Centennial-based smallbatch distillery.

“I really had to just stop and do a double-take,” Causey said. “At first we thought we would get a ransom note, but we didn’t.”

Although the tub was old, he joked that it was not a claw-footed model, “so it probably didn’t walk off.”

The giant enameled vessel was actually a hand-me-down from a relative, and Causey thought that parking it in front of the distillery’s front entrance would spark a giggle and add a bit of period charm.

Causey said he never thought about bolting it to the ground, because, well, it weighs 400 pounds.

Hoping to catch a glimpse of the bathtub bandits in action, he checked with

BATHTUB MYSTERY To report the whereabouts of the missing bathtub, contact: Andrew Causey, downslope.distilling@gmail.com 303-810-4831 neighboring businesses that have security cameras.

“And of course, when we looked, all the cameras were pointed in every other direction except where we needed them,” he said with chuckle.

Causey cedes he didn’t report the incident to law enforcement, simply because he figured it was a lost cause and officers probably had a lot more important things to do than chase after his missing bathtub.

“I’m guessing by now it’s probably already chopped up and in the scrap pile, sold for the value of the metal,” he said with a sigh.

However, should the tub still be intact, Causey said he’d like to have it back.

No questions asked.

It’s more about the bathtub, he said, than trying to finger someone for petty theft.

“Really, I just want the bathtub back,” he said.

Causey said if anyone delivers the tub back — in one piece — to the distillery, he’d splurge for a round of drinks at the tasting table, no matter what the motive.

The only legal catch to his offer, of course, would be that everyone is old enough to drink.

Armchair travel goes historic Book looks at railroad’s ‘wicked towns’

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcolorado news.com “The first question, of course, is why did they do it?”

Dick Kreck’s opening sentence in “Hell on Wheels: Wicked Towns Along the Union Pacific Railroad” is followed by all sorts of reasons, with original quotes from railroad developers, writers, some adventurous women, vigilantes, preachers and more.

Kreck retired from the Denver Post after 38 years as an editor and columnist (he still writes a beer column) and he has published six books, including this new history Kreck about the march of the Union Pacific Railroad across the West.

Kreck’s deep knowledge of Western history and his extensive collection of resources, including old newspaper accounts and historic photographs, give a reader a real feel for what towns that grew up in a day looked like, sounded like — and smelled like.

Also, once the trains were running, he takes one aboard various classes of cars for a trip — including the elegant dining cars for the first-class passengers.

Tales of pleasant climate in

Author Dick Kreck of Denver, retired Denver Post reporter. Courtesy photo California and Oregon, finding gold in Colorado and California and for some, the lure of access to the Orient, drew many folks to consider a journey west after about 1840. Calling themselves emigrants, they were a mixed bag ethnically and in many cases had failed at farming or in business. Yet they managed

to scrape enough together to outfit themselves for a very long trek across the country.

Kreck describes details in the very difficult lives of those first, often unprepared travelers, citing accounts from diaries that also described rough boomtowns that grew up to supply provisions. All started from a

handful of locations, he says: Omaha, Neb./Council Bluffs, Iowa; St. Joseph/Independence, Mo.; or Leavenworth, Kan. Stagecoaches came next, for those who could afford them, carrying passengers and mail from the Missouri River to Sacramento, Calif., in 20 days, with frequent changes. Those drivers, called “bullwhackers,” were rock stars of their day.

Forts grew up to protect travelers from Indians, who saw their land being taken from them.

Talk of a transcontinental railroad began in the 1830s, as Eastern railroad systems were growing fast. The Union Pacific and Central Pacific began talk of a path that would start in both directions and meet. Kreck documents writers, such as Horace Greeley, businessmen, surveyors and more. Ultimately Grenville M. Dodge and Dr. Thomas C. Durant focused and gathered investors.

Money was a problem across the miles and Kreck’s account describes questionable Credit Mobilier financing, as well as the railroad’s sale of land to settlers. A goal of a mile a day of track laying was set. “One mile of track required 40 cars carrying ties, fastenings, rails, fuel and supplies for crews and animals, all of it hauled from the Missouri River. … Crews laid a rail that was 30 feet long and weighed 560 pounds every 30 seconds,” Kreck reports.

Towns popped up almost overnight. The authors describes a collection of tent-like saloons, gambling halls and accommodations for prostitutes that would be packed up at one Kreck continues on Page 30

Kaleidoscope show lives up to name Variety of media on exhibit at ACC

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcolorado news.com The Annual Juried Kaleidoscope Exhibition at ACC’s Colorado Gallery of the Arts grows stronger with each succeeding year.

The show, which runs through July 31, was juried this year by Marsha Wooley, a longtime Arapahoe Community College faculty member and well-known landscape painter, and Christine Katzenberg, a ceramic artist who teaches and coordinates exhibits at Goodson Recreation Center in Centennial.

The two selected a show that fits comfortably in the gallery from a large number of entries.

Best of Show was awarded to the mysterious “Sea Mudra” by Jonathan M. Wright, an oil on canvas painting of a woman in

the water, but with four arms in symbolic pose, like an Indian religious figure. One wonders where she came from.

The First Place ribbon went to Robert Schroeder’s large “Brick Pot With Pipe Handle,” a tongue-in-cheek, but expertly crafted, clay sculpture. The artist has several more in a brick pot series in the show, which add some heft to the three-dimensional exhibits.

Second Place was awarded to Joyce McClain’s “Lake Garda,” a detailed solar etching, which draws the viewer in for a close look. Third Place winner is S. Williams’ bright watercolor “Details Bike,” a portrait of the antique bicycle with flowers in its basket that greets customers at the Details store on Littleton’s Main Street.

Honorable Mentions were given to Barbara Veatch for a mixed-media abstract painting; to Roseanne Stearne’s airy mixed media painting “Celebration II,” and to Gayla Ruckhaus’ “Iris,” created from colorful, textured wool fibers, pressed on a board, under glass.

This broad-based show, open to all, is a nice representation of the many interests community artists pursue, with a variety of skills.

The jurors’ statement had this description: “Upon walking through the gallery we were impressed by the variety of art in

IKEA does right thing IKEA in Centennial donated nearly $60,000 of products in comfort kits for families forced out of their homes during Colorado’s Black Forest Fire in June. In all, 800 kits were created; 500 for adults and 300 for children.

“There really wasn’t a question of if we’d do something to help our neighbors, it was a question of what we’d do,” said local marketing, PR and community outreach manager Annie Boeckman.

IKEA Centennial co-workers brainstormed product ideas to include in the kits. Each bag contained basic necessities focusing on eating, sleeping and hygiene.

“The products chosen for the bags were a team effort,” Boeckman said. “Our coworkers put themselves in the mindset of an evacuee and thought about what they’d need if they had to up and leave at a moment’s notice.”

Each IKEA bag contained a pillow, blanket, towel, water bottle and utensils for eating and writing. The child kits also contained markers, paper and a soft toy to keep them entertained during a stressful situation.

IKEA Centennial realized firsthand results of their efforts in an email from an IKEA visitor on July 2: “I want to thank you for the kind packages you sent to the Red Cross to help those in the Black Forest Fire!

My sister lost everything, but had toys for her grandkids to play with because of your kindness.”

It took just five days to pull more than 10,000 products, set up an assembly line on the store’s receiving dock and have co-workers assemble the bags. Many IKEA employees came in early or stayed late knowing time was of the essence for the evacuees.

The New Jersey IKEA transport team, in charge of setting up trucks for product delivery to and from distribution centers, quickly contracted a 53-foot trailer to transport the bags to Colorado Springs.

The kits were delivered to the American Red Cross Disaster Assistance Center on June 21 and distributed by Red Cross volunteers the following week.

Panzano chef competes

The diversity is represented in each subject matter, technique and content. We decided that each artist should have at least one work of art in the show.

If there were multiple submissions, we wanted to show strengths through similarity or originality and diversity. Other

considerations included careful analysis of the artist’s use of the art elements and principles.

We awarded the strongest representations of a variety of media. Finally, we want to thank all artists who submitted to the Kaleidoscope show. It is our wish that each and every one of you continue to create, grow, and evolve as artists.”

Elise Wiggins, executive chef of Panzano in Denver, will represent Colorado at the Great American Seafood Cook Off in New Orleans on Aug. 3. One of the most prestigious culinary competitions in the United States, The Great American Seafood Cook Off emphasizes the importance of cooking with domestic and sustainable seafood.

In New Orleans, Wiggins will compete against more than a dozen top seafood chefs from across the country for the title of “King” or “Queen” of American Seafood.

The chefs will prepare dishes that showcase sustainable fish. Garrett Wiggins, Elise’s younger brother, will act as her sous chef at the event. Interestingly, Wiggins grew up in West Monroe, La., and moved to Colorado to pursue her cooking career.

“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to return to Louisiana and represent Colorado at the Cook Off in New Orleans,” said Wiggins, whose restaurant, Panzano, has a Four Diamond rating from AAA. “I look forward to meeting chefs from other states as we help spread the word about the importance of sustainability.”

Impromptu parades and medieval garb are never an uncommon sight at the Colorado Renaissance Festival.

A Centennial State tradition, the Colorado Renaissance Festival has just two Saturdays and two Sundays left this summer. So before it passes you by, head on down to Larkspur and kneel to the King and Queen, take an elephant ride, watch some fire-breathing entertainment and enjoy a late-afternoon joust while enjoying a turkey leg and cold beverage. The festival, which brings the medieval out in many, features fine art, fare of the times, rides for the kids and more. For more information, visit www.coloradorenaissance.com.

“To run the table with the low ET puts the pressure on,” Pedregon said. “This is just a difficult place to race. I’m grateful and happy that we were able to break a track record. Each win means as much as it does with the other 33. They just all mean a lot to me.

Can we sweep the Western Swing?

We’ll see. We’ve got the good start.”

Tasca III opened his run to the final upsetting John Force of Yorba Linda, California (4.268296.76 to 4.313-288.33), followed by victories against Tim Wilkerson (4.237-303.03 to 4.307-274.22) and Robert Hight of Yorba Linda, California (4.221-302.89 to 4.434230.13).

Like Funny Car, there were no Colorado drivers in Top Fuel, a classification won by Spencer Massey. Yet it was a step up in the right direction for the Brownsburg, Ind., resident.

Massey, who was the runnerup in the Mile Highs last season, came through to beat Bob Vandergriff of Alpharetta, Ga., with a pass of 3.974 seconds, 309.27 mph to Vandergriff’s 4.029/304.67 effort. He had reached the final with his victory against teammate Shawn Langdon (3.966/309.98 to 3.975/309.20), his quarterfinal win over Mike Strasburg of Lehi, Utah (3.996/305.91 to 5.213/138.77), and his opening round win against Clay Millican of Drummonds, Tenn., (3.970/311.99 to 4.011/304.74).

Summer volleyball a plus for Eagles Heritage coach works with players during weekly games

By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com About 15 black-shirted players gathered around coach Doug Schafer as they prepared to take the floor for their July 9 game in the Englewood summer high school volleyball league.

“Playing in this summer league is a big help, as we use our play here as a measuring stick as we prepare for the high school volleyball season this fall,” said Schafer, who is coaching Heritage High School Eagles volleyball for the 14th season. “We lost about half last year’s starters, so we have younger players with little or no varsity experience who will be with us this season. This league is going to the University of Northern Colorado camp to help us be prepared when September rolls around.”

Englewood has a Tuesday league that is made up primarily of varsity level volleyball teams. There is also a Thursday night league that is made up of teams of players who will probably be playing junior varsity volleyball during the upcoming high school season.

Schafer had about 15 players on the sidelines at the July 9 three-game match against D’Evelyn. Points were hard to earn and long volleys were the standard rather than the exception. Heritage doesn’t have a lot

A player sets the ball for a Heritage hitter during the July 9 game against D’Evelyn in the Englewood High School Summer Volleyball League. The league has matches on Tuesday nights for varsity candidates and matches on Thursday nights for teams of younger players who are expected to be on JV teams in the fall. Photo by Tom Munds of height, but there are Eagles players who have good timing and can jump so they can drive the ball to the floor. The Eagles won the match, 2 games to 1.

The coach made frequent substitutions in order to get the athletes as much playing time as possible as well as to see the team-

work when a particular combination of players was on the court together.

“We don’t have a lot of height so, like last year, a major focus will be defense because defense won us a lot of matches last season,” the coach said. “We lost some key defenders so, hopefully, we can find the play-

ers we need to fill those spots.”

The Eagles had a strong team last year and finished fifth at state. The coach said this year the summer league and camps are designed to help the team jell before the start of the season.

Schafer said one advantage of playing in a summer league and at camps is facing teams the Eagles won’t see during the regular season.

“A lot of teams play different styles and have their players at different locations than we normally do,” the coach said. “Playing against these different styles of attack and defense is good because it helps the players learn how to quickly adjust when they see unfamiliar formations.”

One of the returning veterans is Ali Miller, who was all-state last season. The coach said she is a talented player who is a strong defender and covers the court well.

“Volleyball is my game. I started playing volleyball when I was very young and just grew to love the game,” she said. “I play club volleyball and I worked to get better during the off season because I am now a senior and I want us to have a good year.”

She said the biggest improvement in the game is serving the volleyball.

“I just spent a lot of time serving the volleyball,” she said. “Coach worked with me and helped me as I just served the ball over and over again, looking to develop power but also ball placement. I feel I do that better now than I was doing last high school season.”

Track worker says job is place to be Longtime sprint racer happy to be at Bandimere

By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Frank Evancich spent three days last week armed with a hose and broom.

Evancich, an Alameda High School graduate and Denver resident, worked the water box for the National Hot Rod Association’s Mopar Mile High Nationals, held July 19-21 at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison.

His job was to make sure there was water on the track, so when cars rolled toward the starting line, they would get the tires wet to do burnouts. Then, he would grab a broom to help sweep away rocks.

“I’ve been working this race for 25 years,” said Evancich. “I’d been racing sprint cars on Saturdays for 35 or 40 years. I love drag racing. With this job, it’s the idea of being out with everybody and watching the action. In between what we’re doing we glance every once in a while and watch a race.”

An estimated 114,000 people watched Mile High Nationals events, which actually started July 18 with a Mopar block party in Golden. Fans are allowed to walk around the pit area and scrutinize crews as they work on the cars. Unlike most sports, there were seven divisions of amateur drivers competing on the same track and same venue as the professionals. Two sportsman classes, Top Dragster and Top Sportsman, competed for national honors for the first time this summer at Bandimere.

The Bandimere stop is the 14th race on the 2013 NHRA tour, with four remaining before the points are reset for the Countdown to the Championship, which is the NHRA’s version of the playoffs.

Funny Car driver Cruz Pedregon and Steve Torrence, in a Top Fuel dragster, set track records in the qualifying rounds that were held during the first two days.

Pedregon and Torrence were the No. 1 qualifiers in their respective classes going into the July 21 elimination rounds. Allen Johnson’s magic on the Thunder Mountain track near Morrison continued, and he was the top seed for the fourth straight year in

Pro Stock, while Adam Arana was the No. 1 seed in Pro Stock Motorcycle.

Johnson defeated Lakewood’s V. Gaines July 21 in the Bandimere finals for the second straight season, capturing his fourth Mile High Nationals championship in the past five years and the fifth of his career at the drag racing facility.

The Greeneville, Tenn., native eliminated Mike Edwards, the last Pro Stock driver to win at Bandimere other than Johnson in the past five seasons, in the second round, and his 6.989-second run at 196.87 miles per hour downed Gaines’ 7.015 at 196.67mph effort in an all-Mopar Super Stock finals.

“The Mopar Express Lane Dodge Avenger crew is the reason for all the success for the last seven years here,” said Johnson, who clinched a spot in the Countdown to the Championship. “They’re determined to win every year. We’re really thrilled to come out here with a win for Mopar on their 25th anniversary of this race. For them and the Bandimere family, having that marriage for 25 years, we really wanted to win it for that marriage. We pulled it off and we’re very happy.”

Pederson knocked off Bob Tasca III to capture the Funny Car championship. It was his second win at Bandimere, coming 20 years after he was victorious in 1993.

“I can remember winning in 1993 and winning this race means the same to win,” said Pedregon, who drove his 8,000-horsepower Toyota Camry to a 4.233 elapsed time at 295.46 mph in the final run.

Spencer Massey beat Bob Vandergriff in the Top Fuel finals with an ET of 3.974 and 309.27 mph. He lost in the Mile High semifinals last year but won in 2011 at Bandimere.

Shawn Gann captured to Pro Stock Motorcycle title with a final-round triumph over Hector Arana Jr. for his first win in nine years. “It was a long drought, but if you give up the fight, you’re never going to get out of that drought,” said Gann.

Four Funny Car drivers actually lowered the track record July 19, but Pedregon, a two-time world champion, broke his own Bandimere standard during the second qualifying session with a 4.073 ET and a speed of 307.37 mph. Cruz had set the previous track mark July 19, 2011, with a run of 4.095. The NHRA national Funny Car ET record of 3.986 was established last year by Jack Beckman at Mohnton, Pa.
