Thomas again calls for Holbert to step down

MY NAME IS

Dave Gill appointed treasurer, filling vacancy left by Holbert

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Jared and Lindsay Keiffer, of Lone Tree, own Monk and Mongoose Coffee.

JARED KEIFFER

Monk and Mongoose Coffee co-owner wants to bring people together About us My wife, Lindsay, and I are the owners of Monk and Mongoose Coffee in Lone Tree. We have lived in Lone Tree for about six years. It will be two years in October since we started Monk and Mongoose.

We live right by the bluffs and we love going up there, hiking with our dog, all that fun stuff.

The best part about living in Lone Tree It has the small-town feel and community but it also is managed extremely well. Mayor Jackie (Millet) has done just such a great job with development and all the other city council members just with guiding the city to develop and being smart about what to bring in, what restaurants, businesses, light rail — all of that. You get the benefit of the small-town feel with what the big town brings behind it.

What made you want to start a coffee shop?

It really came out of our passion for people and understanding that coffee

is something that really brings people together. It really is a third place — everybody has a job, everybody has a home. Then, for some people it may be a gym or a bar. We just noticed that coffee becomes a place you come to study, you come to meet friends, you come on a first date. It just really brings people together.

At Mongoose, we just really focus on specialty coffee. We’re proud to serve Sweet Bloom coffee exclusively.

They’ve won multiple awards. We really do believe it’s the best coffee in the world. But also the process in how we create the drinks — we do two-to-three weeks of training before anyone can really serve to a customer because we want the excellence to come through.

My inspiration Seeing people develop both professionally and in their relationships.

At the heart of Monk and Mongoose, we’ve got staff members who are interested in starting their own business one day or starting their own coffee shop. It inspires me to help them grow and develop and see their dreams realized. As well as our customers, they can come and have a meeting where they change the base of their business or the base of their relationship with someone. It’s enabling people to succeed.

The Douglas County Board of Commissioners was set to consider appointing Dave Gill to fill a vacancy in the treasurer’s office on July 10, which it ultimately did, but not before discussion again turned to Commissioner Diane Holbert and her position on the board.

Commissioner Lora Thomas called for Holbert to resign from the three-member board following primary election results in hopes the Republican victor, Abe Laydon, could be appointed as soon as possible. Thomas said she’d received some pushback against the idea.

“Often when leaders take a stand they receive criticism,” she said, although she did not budge in asking Holbert to step down.

Holbert and Laydon were the two Republican candidates who ran for District 1 commissioner in the primary. Laydon will face Democrat Mary Lynch in the November general election.

Holbert is currently serving in the position after being elected April 9 through the Douglas County Republican Party Vacancy Committee to fill the seat, left vacant that month

by David Weaver. Weaver left office on April 1 to accept a presidential appointment as the United States marshal for Colorado.

Holbert resigned from her position as Douglas County treasurer to accept the appointment as commissioner. Deputy treasurer Peter Boyd assumed the treasurer’s duties until commissioners took up a vote to appoint Holbert’s successor, something the board chose not to do ahead of the primary. Gill defeated Bob Muni in the Republican

primary on June 26.

Thomas on July 10 again called for Holbert to step down as commissioner, this time saying Holbert should return to her post as treasurer.

Holbert’s position did not change from the night of the June 26 primary, where she said she’d continue serving as commissioner through January, when Weaver’s term was set to end.

Diana Love, a Franktown resident and Laydon supporter, spoke in favor of Thomas’ proposal. She was joined by other Franktown residents who echoed her remarks.

“The delegates don’t represent all of the voting citizens of Douglas County, and at the primary, the citizens were heard,” Love said. “We sincerely appreciate your work as treasurer.”

Former state Sen. Tom Wiens came to Holbert’s defense, stating procedures to fill vacancies have been in place for years and were worth respecting.

“It’s important for the people of this state to know that we have highly-defined, precise systems upon which to operate,” he said.

Commissioner Roger Partridge said he’d respect Holbert’s decision to stay in office.

“Thank you for all of the comments. That’s what we’re all about... to let your voice be heard,” Holbert said following public discussion.

She further defended her position as commissioner, saying she wanted to uphold the April 9 vote and her experience as treasurer would be needed once the board approaches budget discussions.

The board concluded the discussion with a 3-0 vote appointing Gill as treasurer. Gill — a commercial mortgage banker, residential mortgage lender and auditor from Sedalia — was immediately sworn in July 10 following the meeting.

Gill will face Democrat Angie Hicks in the general election.

From BAGS to bedding Women weave plastic into sleeping mats for homeless people

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Over, then under, and repeat.

On a recent Wednesday afternoon, Kim Carney showed her granddaughter, Ashley, how to weave a sleeping mat made from the plastic of used grocery bags using a device of PVC pipe.

The mat was the second one that Carney and the women at MorningStar Senior Living have made. Once completed, the mat will be made up of more than 500 plastic grocery bags and be nearly 6 feet in length. Eventually, it will be donated to a homeless person, who can use it to sleep on instead of the cold, hard ground.

That Wednesday afternoon at MorningStar in Lone Tree, in a small craft room, an assembly line of four women formed shortly after lunch. Two women on one table convert the cut-up bits of plastic from the bags into the balls of “plarn,” or plastic yarn, to give to Carney at the other table, showing Ashley how it’s done.

“These bags act as insulation when they lie on them, they’re waterproof

because they’re made out of plastic.

The bugs and the lice and things, insects, will not make nests in them, because they’re plastic they don’t have any organic material in them,” Carney said.

It will take almost two weeks for Carney to complete one mat, interchanged with different colored pieces of plastic. The gray bits, which formed the bulk of one new mat, come from

shopping bags, the white from grocery bags, the orange from the bags The Denver Post comes in. There isn’t enough material to create any sort of design yet, but then again they’re just getting started.

“I like to do crafty things and keep myself active. And I thought, well that’s a good way to use plastic bags, get them out of the landfill, and it would be a service to the community,”

Rosemary Monark (left) and Georgia Sweeney put together balls of plastic yarn or “plarn,” to crochet a sleeping mat made of plastic grocery bags at Monring Star Senior Living.

Carney said.

Once the mats are complete, they will be either given to the local sheriff ’s office or a homeless center, which will then give the mats to someone in need.

With a simple slipknot, Georgia Sweeney showed how the plarn is made. Each ball will be made up of about six bags for easy handling.

Residents battle rezoning application for housing Rock Canyon area homeowners worry about traffic, property values

— which Pax Christi is a parish of — on non-binding terms that it would someday be used for a school or sports field, said one of the former owners, who would like her name withheld for privacy reasons.

The church has since entered into a land sale agreement with United Development Companies LLC, a developer based in Greenwood Village.

The developer is requesting the land be rezoned from Agricultural-One to Planned Development to allow for the construction of 66 units, comprising single and multi-family homes.

The project manager, Daniel Sheldon, has held two neighborhood meetings in the last two months and presented before the Development Review Committee (DRC) of the Highlands Ranch Community Association on July 11. The committee reviews development plans and makes referrals to the county.

Michelle Medina, who lives in the Hearst, worries that once the rezoning is approved, the builder will not consider the context of the surrounding neighborhoods, which consist of singlefamily homes in neutral colors with pitched roofs.

“Once we open the door to it, we don’t have any control over what the builder will do,” Medina said during public comment at the July 11 DRC meeting at Eastridge Recreation Center, 9568 S University Blvd.

After receiving negative feedback from residents, Sheldon and his team

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Residents of neighborhoods in southeast Highlands Ranch are fighting a proposed residential development they say would increase traffic, hurt home values and change the atmosphere of the existing suburban area.

“Highlands Ranch is known for being cookie cutter,” resident Heather Goldberg said. “Part of that is what makes it a really good place to live.”

The proposed development known as “Rock Canyon Planned Development” is 10 acres of land north of Rock Canyon High School and east of Pax Christi Catholic Church on the north side of McArthur Ranch Road. Surrounding neighborhoods are the Hearth to the west and single-family homes to the east, off Quebec and McArthur Ranch Road.

The land is currently zoned by Douglas County as Agricultural-One, which means it is to be used for rural purposes such as farms, ranches or open space.

Ten years ago, the former owners of the land, a longtime family of Highlands Ranch, sold 10 acres to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Colorado Springs

Plans call for single-family homes and multi-family homes or townhomes.

The number of attached units could be up to six, Sheldon said, and prices are expected to be in the $300,000 to $500,000 range.

“They will not bring down values of neighbors,” Sheldon said. “If anything, they might bring them up.”

Many residents remain concerned over traffic in the area. McArthur Ranch Road, a two-lane street, bustles during peak times due to people coming in and out of Rock Canyon High School and its neighbor, Rocky Heights Middle School. The intersection of Quebec Street and Lincoln Avenue, one of the busiest intersections in Highlands Ranch, is just north of the property.

The area isn’t prepared for the amount of traffic the development would bring, residents say. They foresee longer wait times and more motorists taking short cuts through residential streets, such as Jaguar Way, which connects Quebec Street and McArthur Ranch Road.

“We already have a severe traffic problem,” Medina said. “How does it make sense to add more to it?”

During peak hours, said Goldberg, who also lives in the Hearth, it can take her 20 minutes to get from Quebec to Southridge Recreation Center using McArthur Ranch Road. The stretch is just under two miles.

Developers are submitting a rezoning request to Douglas County that would allow a planned development on untouched property east of Pax Christi Catholic Church and north of Rock Canyon High School, off McArthur Ranch Road.

ALEX DEWIND

reduced the number of units on the property from 82 to 66. He also agreed to keep the height of the homes at less than 35 feet and allow only pitched roofs. There would be a 40-foot buffer between the property line and McArthur Ranch Road and a 25-foot buffer between homes and existing property lines, he said. Twenty percent of the land would be used for open space and a pocket park.

Sheldon has secured water and sewer services through Centennial Water and Sanitation District, he said.

Subcommittee works to perfect parent-engagement policy

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Douglas County’s District Accountability Committee is reviewing a policy to present to the board of education to better connect parents and schools.

“Kids learn better when parents are involved,” DAC communications officer Marco Fields said at a public meeting on July 10 in Castle Rock.

“That’s at the root of what we are trying to create here.”

By law, every school district in Colorado must have a District Accountability Committee. Made up of parents, teachers, district staff and community members, the committee advises the school board on issues that include budget, charter school applications, improvement plans and parent-engagement plans.

The district’s first parent-engage-

ment policy was adopted in 2003 and repealed by the school board in 2005, according to district documents.

It was then enacted and revised by the superintendent, but never fully implemented. School districts with Title 1 programs, which provide funding to schools where 75 percent or more students are considered lowincome, are required to have a parent- and family-engagement policy, according to the Colorado Department of Education.

Some parents and DAC members say the former reform-minded school board caused a disengagement of parents, which sparked the need for such a policy.

“The prior board was not parent focused,” said retired teacher Gary Colley, who formed a Community Accountability Committee for the district in late 2013 to work with the board on education issues. “When

the parent community is actively engaged, they start to have a voice on what is going on in our schools and community.”

The type of policy “applies to everyone,” Colley said. “Everyone must be held accountable.”

The DAC first presented a draft of its parent engagement policy to the school board at a board meeting in February.

The board tabled the action because of unclear language and asked for a second draft, which the board also deemed insufficient.

The school board then delegated board member Kevin Leung — who serves as the board’s liaison for the DAC — to work with the district’s then-legal counsel, Steve Colella, and DAC member Christian Phelps to rewrite a draft that would meet state and national requirements.

Under statute, a parent-engagement

policy should increase and support parent engagement and provide training on best practices for school personnel who work with parents.

Members of the DAC and a subcommittee focused on parent engagement met on July 10 to formulate a final draft, which combines effective language and ideas from previous drafts.

DAC members believe a parent engagement policy will strengthen parent organizations in schools, such as school accountability committees and parent teacher organizations.

“The new one has a mechanism for parents to voice their frustrations,” Leung said at the July 10 meeting.

The parent engagement subcommittee will present its final draft to the DAC at an Aug. 14 meeting. If approved, Leung will ask the school board to revisit the policy, which is expected to happen at an August board meeting.

Officers justified in shooting man who killed deputy, report says

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Officers were justified in shooting Matthew Riehl, the gunman killed Dec. 31 in an officer-involved shooting that began after Riehl opened fire on Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office deputies, according to a report released by the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

Deputy Zackari Parrish was killed in the incident at a Highlands Ranch apartment complex and four more officers and two civilians were injured.

Any time there is an officer-involved shooting, the district attorney’s office Critical Response Team opens an investigation to determine if the shooting was legally justified.

The report, which was released July 16 and signed by Senior Chief Deputy District Attorney Jason Siers, states, “Mr. Riehl posed a continuing deadly threat to law enforcement and the community. All

officers acted in self-defense or defense of others. They were legally justified in shooting and killing Mr. Riehl.”

A detective assisted by numerous Critical Response Team members led the investigation for the district attorney’s office and a Douglas County Sheriff’s Office detective conducted a separate investigation. Siers’ letter says he reviewed both in coming to his decision.

The report outlines the Riehl events of Dec. 31 in great detail, from Riehl’s first 911 call to the last shot fired.

Riehl made his first 911 call at 2:58 a.m. Dec. 31, claiming a man suffering a mental breakdown shined a laser in his eye. Parrish and Cpl. Aaron Coleman responded, later joined by Deputy Taylor Davis, and cleared the scene at 3:42 a.m.

Through a computer-aided dispatch

system, responding officers were made aware that Riehl was a veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder, had access to weapons and was hostile toward law enforcement.

They determined Riehl suffered mental illness but did not yet meet the requirement to place him on a mental health hold, the report says, and he had not committed a crime.

Riehl called 911 again at 5:12 a.m. asking to file an emergency restraining order. Four deputies and a sergeant responded and after several attempts to communicate with Riehl, decided to place him on a mental health hold.

Riehl opened fire on them as they approached his bedroom door, killing Parrish and inuring Davis, Deputy Michael Doyle and Deputy Jeff Pelle. None of these officers used deadly force against Riehl, the report says.

Riehl was later shot by a SWAT team after a nearly 90-minute standoff. The

report says Riehl, suffering multiple gunshot wounds, struggled with officers trying to place him in handcuffs.

He died on-scene while being treated by medics. Officers in one instance shot at Riehl after he ignored commands not to reach for a shotgun, the report says.

Investigators found 185 spent casings, 1,067 live cartridges and 22 magazines inside Riehl’s bedroom. They also discovered a cache of firearms in his bedroom and a “bloody Beretta 1301 Tactical shotgun” in the bathroom. He’d also set up surveillance cameras around his apartment.

At least 58 projectile holes were discovered in neighboring apartments. An autopsy report confirmed Riehl died of multiple gunshot wounds.

“After reviewing all the evidence and reports,” Siers’ letter concluded, “I find that all officers acted completely lawfully in using deadly force against Matthew Riehl.”

Kim Carney demonstrates how to properly crochet a sleeping mat made of plastic grocery bags using a constructed PVC pipe as a loom at Morning Star Senior Living July 11.

NICK PUCKETT

BEDDING FROM PAGE 4

The bags are cut into four strips and then strung together to act as the fabric for these mats. Sweeney and Rosemary Monark sat together to work on a ball of plarn. It takes about 20 minutes to make. One mat will require about 83 balls of plarn. But Sweeney and Monark don’t mind the effort, as they work steadily, smiling as they tie one plastic strip to another.

“There are so many plastic bags floating in the ocean,” Sweeney said.

“And this way, we can take them and make good use of them.”

Making bags into plastic is how this group of women at MorningStar are working on making the world a greener place, while also finding productive ways to recycle the plastic. So far, the women have received several donations from residents across Lone Tree. And with almost 500 bags woven into each mat, they will take all the help they can get.

“It takes a bit of work,” Carney said.

“But there are still homeless people who won’t go to the homeless shelters and they insist on staying outside.

This is for those people.”

Family keeps up generations-long tradition James Mullins, 10, plans to ranch, learns through 4-H

of participating in the fair. “Especially because there’s been so many generations of the family that have shown in the beef show.”

With all that history, James — who lives in unincorporated Elbert County near the border with Douglas County, south of Franktown — has learned a few things.

The 10-year-old insists on taking his steak rare, like it should be, he said, and hopes to be a rancher when he grows up. Maybe, he said, a cattle judge as well. Caring for his 4-H animals means he learns something new each day. He sees it as preparation for his future.

Wearing work boots, jeans, a belt, a clean button-up shirt, black-framed glasses and neatly gelled hair, James dressed to the nines after his morning chores on a recent Thursday.

Showing cattle is in his blood.

That’s how James Mullins’ mother, Caity, explained his dedication to raising animals for the Douglas County Fair and Rodeo’s livestock shows.

His family homesteaded in Castle Rock in 1864, and in 1947, James’ greatgreat-great grandfather, Josef Winkler, was named Livestock Man of the Year.

James is the fifth generation in his family to show livestock at the county fair, which this year, runs from Aug. 2-5 in Castle Rock.

“We’re very excited about being a part of that,” said James’ father, Joe,

good marketing, Caity said, something James understands well. He runs a blog and Facebook page and invites buyers to the fair’s livestock show inperson.

This year, to get a marketing edge, James asked to have magnets made that include a timetable for grilling the perfect steak (along with the dates and times of every livestock show he’s entering at this year’s fair.) He gives them to buyers he invites to the fair.

In addition to learning the marketing side of showing, James has no qualms taking on the grunt work too. He is up by 5:30 a.m. each morning when his dad leaves for work.

At that point, the second-year 4-H member makes his way to the family’s barn.

Take a focused approach to information overload

Being tailgated — there’s something stupid behind it

T

he first recorded incident of following at an unsafe distance occurred about an hour after the invention of the automobile.

QUIET Understandably, DESPERATION that wouldn’t have been possible, but it probably didn’t take long after automobiles were first on the roads in America before one driver tailgated another driver.

In the 21st century, following too closely Craig Marshall is inevitable, likely, honored, addictive Smith and routine.

There are tailgating associations and clubs and cults.

I am not a member, but I suffer the consequences of their missions nevertheless.

Their mission statements all start with the same mantra: “Trust your brakes.”

I despise tailgaters.

I have no recourse. Agitating a tailgater, who has zero sense of road intelligence to begin with, furthers the problem, solves nothing, and leads to unwanted consequences.

The opposition to this thinking is that I am an elderly, overly conservative driver who forgets to turn off his turn signal, and loiters in the left lane.

It’s not true. I am — still — a conscientious driver.

Conscientious drivers make up less than half of the drivers on I-25.

Everyone is in a hurry.

Would that everyone left for work five or 10 minutes earlier and didn’t mash the gas pedal, but it doesn’t work that way.

We are stimulated to speed by glamorizing advertisements and glamor-

izing films.

Have you ever seen Steve McQueen in “Bullitt”?

Varoom with a view.

In 1966, my father bought a second car for my sister and me. It was a midnight blue Mustang.

There was a small plate on the side of the car that said “289.”

That meant nothing to me, but it seemed to mean something to my friends.

One asked, “What’s your zero to 60?”

“Huh?” People change in their automobiles.

A demure secretary the size of a Pimlico jockey becomes Danica.

I have never watched or attended an automobile race. Complete waste of time. Millions of others don’t see it that way.

There have been auto races as long as there have been autos.

Were the Democrats to pull a similar stunt we conservatives would be rightly outraged. We are Republicans and we are better than this type of unprincipled behavior. The right thing to happen is for Holbert to fulfil the will of the vacancy committee. There’s nothing to stop Laydon from spending time with Thomas to begin to understand the role under the assumption that he will claim victory this November.

SEE LETTERS, P21

SEE NORTON, P13

SEE SMITH, P20

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thomas is off base Commissioner Lora Thomas is simply incorrect in calling for interim Commissioner Diane Holbert to step down prior to the end of her term in January.

First, Commissioner Holbert was duly elected by the GOP vacancy committee with the understanding that she would complete the entirety of Dave Weaver’s term. Second, there is a matter of ethics to consider. It is disingenuous to place Abe Laydon as a commissioner today so that he is able to run as the incumbent.

hanks again for the tremendous support from the community. I really do love receiving your emails, thoughts and questions, so please keep them coming.

One of the more common emails I receive lately is this: “Help, I am WINNING suffering from comWORDS munication overload.” Most people go on with greater detail about the amount of emails, posts, tweets, voice mails, breaking news flashes and sports updates that they receive. They Michael Norton share that the noise is deafening.

I explored this a little further with my own network, family and friends.

I wanted to know how just how common this feeling was inside my own circle of friends and colleagues. And what I got back was consistent with our community’s emails — there is simply too much information coming our way at any one moment. I heard expressions like “information overload,” “information fatigue” and “noisy nonsense.”

As new apps are developed, and new technologies are built to help us streamline our lives and make access to information easier, they also bring with them the unintended consequence of too much noise, too much information, and fatigue. There is a population of people who have figured out how to maximize these technologies and love the efficiencies that they create, but for the greater population, my research tells me that it is only creating more noise, more confusion and more frustration. If this is the case, what is the answer?

Here are a few ideas.

Business cycle may fade slowly toward a fall

T

he next 12 to 18 months may mark what is left of the current business cycle. This should not come as a surprise to anyone, as this is one of the longest-running growth cycles in history.¹ The current recovery has been underway since June 2009. Granted we got off to a very slow start, with Gross Domestic Product (GDP) averaging only 2 percent for most of the recovery so far.² Perhaps the sluggishness pushed the typical economic cycle out a little further on the calendar.

A typical business cycle is the natural rise and fall of economic growth that occurs over time. Each business cycle has four phases: expansion, peak, contraction and trough. The last major trough we had is now known as the Great Recession. Since then we have been in expansion and some economists have made a case that we are close to reaching a peak with GDP expected to be in the 4 percent range for 2018.² Once we start the contraction phase you will hear more about a possible recession or trough.

These phases repeat themselves over time. It appears historically that the size of expansion often has a bearing on the size of recession.

Many consumers feel that this has been a relatively slow expansion.

NORTON FROM PAGE 12

Focus on what is to be considered a must-have and not what is a niceto-have. I know that at almost every conference I attend, I have a colleague or peer share with me the newest and coolest app or service they have found.

At first, I get excited and think I need to download it, but then I remember that it really is just one more nice-tohave, and not a have-to-have. So, I stay focused on my essential avenues of information.

A couple of business associates shared with me that they gave up their online news apps more than a year ago. They took the apps off of their phones and tablets so that they could determine when and how they wanted to consume the news. As it turned out, all that “breaking news” wasn’t so breaking after all and would be available to them when and how they wanted to consume it.

Another best practice is the way we read our email. Set up three times a day only and stay committed to the practice. Check it once in the morning, once mid-day, and once in the later afternoon or evening. We can all argue that we are so important that we need to be available all day, 24/7, but the reality is that if there is something that important or urgent happening, the other person or company knows how to reach us by telephone.

“Focus” is a big word for some.

Many of us believe we can multi-task, but we really can’t. When we give up

Depending on where we end up on inflation, interest rates and GDP, it is hard to predict. If things remain sluggish, hopefully this is an indication of a mild recession.

So why are we glued to the GDP number every quarter? Does this FINANCIAL help predict the next STRATEGIES recession? Remember a recession is identified by two consecutive quarters of negative growth or GDP. And the formula to calculate GDP is consumer and government spending plus priPatricia Kummer vate investment and net exports. Since we run a trade deficit in the U.S., the net exports will be a negative number.

Since we have fewer workers tied to manufacturing, it is becoming difficult to see that growth measure rise very rapidly.³ Some economists are becoming more dependent on other indicators, such as an inverted yield curve. This is a bit more technical but certainly another component that the Fed watches. When short-term bonds are yielding more than longer-term bonds, the natural curve that mea-

our commitment to focus and spread ourselves too thin, our attempts at multi-tasking become even less effective. So as information comes at us so fast and in so many ways, the best thing we can do is slow down, shut down, so that we can apply our focus on the right things at the right time.

A lack of focus is hurting our family time too. Look around at a family traveling together at the airport, or dining together in a restaurant, they will all be heads down on the devices.

Emails, texts, games, news, scores, and other things. A lack of focus is killing our productivity at work. Not saying that we shouldn’t use technology to connect. But when we have way too many sources of communication, tools, systems, processes, initiatives, and requirements, what happens is that everything we put in place to create enablement and efficiencies for our teams at work is actually fostering inefficiencies and disablement in the workplace.

So how about you? Is the noise deafening? Do you have a strategy for how you deal with information overload and fatigue? Whether you need some help and coaching in this area or you have it all under control, I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we can apply our focus to the right areas of life, including our consumption of information, it really will be a better than good week.

Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the president of the Zig Ziglar Corporate Training Solutions Team, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

sures increases in yields becomes distorted. This can also be a predictor of a possible recession. To put this in investor terms, who would buy a 10-year bond only to earn less than a one- or three-year bond?

The Fed is watching this due to their “double elimination” program currently where they are both increasing interest rates, and releasing bond assets off of their balance sheet.

This has never been done before and we don’t know the effects of this on a growing economy.³ So stay tuned and enjoy what is left of the growth phase and watch for late cycle symptoms. We are already seeing the 10-year Treasury yield slide a bit and we certainly have an antsy stock market.

Now if we could just keep that GDP number growing without too much inflation we may enjoy a Goldilocks (not too hot or too cold)

economy a bit longer.

MOVIES offer ESCAPE from heat and traditional fare Theaters have something for all viewers’ tastes in series events

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he summer months are some of the busiest of the year for the major movies studios — it’s when they release the bulk of their massive blockbuster films, and audiences eager to escape the summer heat flock to the cool dark of the theater.

But face it, a good portion of these summer films are subpar at best. Luckily, there are options for those looking for a movie experience that has a little more to offer — film series.

“Our mission is to develop opportunities for diverse audiences to discover film through creative, thought-provoking experiences,” said Kevin Smith, marketing director with the Denver Film Society, a nonprofit that works to engage people in a lifelong relationship with the medium. “A primary goal for our series and festivals is to build upon the communities around different subjects, ideas, and cultures.”

The Cinema Q Film Festival is the state’s leading LGTBQ film event. This year’s event runs through July 22.

PHOTO BY JAMES DIMAGIBA The film society is part of several film series all over the metro area during the summer. Perhaps the most famous is the Film on the Rocks series at Red Rocks, which includes crowd favorites like “The Goonies” and recent hits like “Black Panther.”

The Denver Museum of Nature & Science also gets in on the fun with its Sci-Fi Film Series. As the

title implies, this series screens genre fiction films like “Blade Runner 2049” and “Annihilation,” and pairs them with presentations by museum scientists and Vincent Piturro, English and film professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver.

s someone who has spent several years working in a bookstore can attest to, readers of the romance genre are some of the most dedicated and voracious readers one will come across.

Which means it’s no surprise that these same readers and writers would be fervent supporters of literacy and want to do something to ensure needed COMING resources are availATTRACTIONS able to all.

Fans of the genres and believers in the power of reading won’t want to miss the annual Romance Writers of America’s 28th annual Readers for Life autographing in Clarke Reader support of adult literacy. The event will be from 3 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 21, at Sheraton Downtown Denver Hotel, 1550 Court Place, downtown.

“Readers will have the chance to meet their favorite authors, find authors who could be their new favorites, and be around hundreds of other readers who love the same books they do, all while supporting a great cause,” said Jessie Edwards, marketing and public relations manager with the Romance Writers of America. The group is a nonprofit trade association whose mission is to advance the professional and common business interests of careerfocused romance writers.

More than 300 romance authors, including Sylvia Day, Beverly Jenkins and Suzanne Brockmann, will meet with and sign books for fans. Copies of the books have been donated to the event by publishers and authors. One hundred percent of proceeds from book sales benefit ProLiteracy and the Colorado Literacy Coalition, helping these groups create lifelong readers.

According to information provided by the Romance Writers, the raised funds have supported 28 U.S. literacy programs and Laubach Literacy Canada, have supplied 18,882 adult educational materials to adult learners, and have helped provide training for an estimated 930 tutors annually.

“Increasing adult literacy is a cause that reflects one of the essential tenets we stand for — that literacy is individually and culturally vital,” Edwards said.

Lakota riders start 400-mile trek in Douglas County Event to benefit Lakota people and inspire cultural understanding

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In 2018, there’s easier ways to hold a fundraiser than a 400-mile trek on horseback, said Dave Ventimiglia, executive director of The Tipi Raisers.

For example, they could hold a silent auction in a hotel or start a GoFundMe page.

But when the organization sets out each year to raise money for impoverished Lakota Native Americans living on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, they want to do so in a way that honors the Lakota nation’s heritage.

Riding cross-country is emblematic of how Lakota people once lived, Ventimiglia said, sending men out to hunt for food and resources.

So, on July 14, roughly a dozen native and non-native riders set out on the first leg of the 2018 Lakota Ride of Reconciliation.

The 22-day journey started from the Cherokee Ranch & Castle in Sedalia and goes up the Front Range, ultimately passing through four states before ending at Pine Ridge.

“For us, this is about bringing peo-

Tessa Brown, 13, will participate in the Lakota ride after learning about Pine Ridge and the Belt family through a school project, where she helped work on the Belt family’s home.

JESSICA GIBBS ple help,” Ventimiglia said. “It’s about non-native people riding with Lakota people and forming that relationship.”

Like Ventimiglia said, the event’s mission is two-fold.

First, they hope to raise money for people on the reservation, to buy them food, clothing and most importantly fuel for the winter. Many families do not have running water or electricity to help them weather South Dakota’s brutal winters.

Darla Black, vice president of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, said it’s common for families to make a monthly income

of $400. She attended the ride’s opening ceremony July 14 to “thank the people who have been giving donations.”

They’ll also use funds to remodel homes at Pine Ridge and complete the construction of a new home for the Belts, a family of five living in a camper.

The second mission is to bring native and non-native people together for cultural learning and healing.

Native people often face racism and discrimination, Ventimiglia said. He hopes the ride will help non-native individuals learn what it’s like living in poverty, and better understand Na-

tive Americans’ relationship with the government. For the Lakota people, he hopes it helps restore trust in nonnatives.

“It’s very interesting to meet a lot of different people along the way,” said Waylon Belt, the family’s father.

He’s participated in the ride three times, counting 2018. This year his girlfriend, Priscilla, and their three children will hopefully get a roof on their home through ride donations.

Tessa Brown, a 13-year-old from Boulder, became familiar with the Brown family’s story after working on their home through a school project.

Meeting them inspired her to ride in this year’s event.

Brown, who attends private school, said visiting Pine Ridge was eye opening. She saw children without access to education, and poorly stocked grocery stores.

“I realized how much I had,” she said, adding her respect for Waylon Belt also inspired her. “He tells awesome stories.”

James Holmes, executive director of the Cherokee Ranch & Castle, said the foundation believes partnering with the Lakota people would make the castle’s past owner, Tweet Kimball, proud. They hope the event spurs cultural understanding and were excited to be the place where horses first stepped on the ground.

“It’s really,” he said, “a special honor.”

Now in its 90th year, Western Welcome Week began as “Homecoming,” providing an opportunity for family and friends to gather. Over the years Western Welcome Week has grown to a 10-day celebration with over 40 events and involving events presented by over 30 organizations.

These organizations help to create the honored tradition of Western Welcome Week.

Thank You for your continued support!

Finally, it’s another unneeded cost to have an additional vacancy committee effort, not to mention it being difficult to get a quorum together during the summer.

If it’s that Thomas believes that Holbert is doing a poor job as commissioner, then she should come out and detail to the voters the exact reasons why Holbert should be step down. Otherwise, this matter should be closed. It’s a shame that this questionable ethical issue was brought to the public light.

We should expect more from our leaders.

“We’re able to have a discussion after the move about the filmmaking and then our scientists are able to talk about their area of expertise in relation to the movie,” said Dr. Steve Lee, a space scientist at the museum, who has participated in the series when space-related movies have been shown. “Our goal is to get people talking about what they’ve seen and there’s always an interesting discussion. It’s a fun way to make people a little more aware of how science impacts their daily life.”

Even Denver’s most famous bookstore, the Tattered Cover, taps into the power of films to tell stories through series hosted in partnership with the film society. These films are selected by Howie Movshovitz, director of film education at the College of Arts and Media at the University of Colorado-Denver and

are often foreign or classics from the medium’s history.

“There are no themes or anything like that I’m thinking about when I select films for the series,” Movshovitz explained. “I like introducing people to films they haven’t seen and have a good conversation after.

It is important to me that we don’t lose the habit of talking about movies.”

Over the years, even chain theaters have discovered the draw of screening classics. AMC theaters host Fathom Events screenings and Harkins Theatres, like the newly opened location in Olde Town Arvada, have Tuesday Night Classics at 7 p.m. every week for just $5.

The Alamo Drafthouse, with locations in Littleton and Sloans Lake, takes a blended approach — they have genre film series like The 37th Chamber (kung-fu) and Graveyard Shift (horror) that screen rare movies most aren’t aware of, but they also have event screenings where filmmakers participate in discussions afterwards. The theater has

hosted notables like Bryan Cranston, director Rian Johnson and Macaulay Culkin, who was in town on July 18 for a screening of “Big Trouble in Little China.”

“Sometimes there’s an anniversary or something culturally or politically important happening that leads to a screening,” said Steve Bessette, creative director with Alamo Denver. “There are so many ways to watch movies, but streaming something on your couch and

experiencing it with other people in a theater are totally different things.”

In the end, all these different movie series are ways for people to experience new things in an art form that has been around for more than a century.

“I hope these movies find a way to get audiences,” Movshovitz said. “I like the fact that there are options for people to come to a theater in a group and have a dream together.”

Sunday workouts help football players fine-tune talents

T

he midday sun was hot as some parents and even a couple players during a water break found shade under the bleachers at the Lutheran High School football field in Parker.

It’s still the off-season for high school football, but it’s also the OVERTIME time for players to review the basics, improve strengths, work on weaknesses and do a little fine-tuning.

Many players and teams attend a variety of camps and clinics, and Jim Benton some hire private coaches.

Each Sunday a group of quarterbacks and wide receivers gets together during a Jenkins Elite training session under the tutelage of a group of former college players to sharpen physical and mental skills for the upcoming season.

Kenneth Saunders, who will be a senior quarterback at Douglas County, completed less than 50 percent of his passes last season.

He claims his confidence has been restored thanks to the Sunday

workouts.

“I played quarterback until I got to high school and I didn’t play quarterback my first couple years,” explained Saunders. “I came back and everything was rusty. I always said I knew where to throw the ball, I just couldn’t get it there.

“I wasn’t comfortable, and when you’re not comfortable throwing the ball it is hard to have comfort in the rest of your game. Coming here has helped me gain the comfort.”

Cherry Creek quarterback Alex Padilla, who has verbally committed to play at Iowa, was the second leading Class 5A passer in the state as he threw for 2,678 yards and 40 TDs last season.

Padilla has been fine-tuning his game this summer and has worked before with Jenkins Elite CEO and founder Tim Jenkins.

“I’ve been training with Tim since I was in the seventh grade,” said Padilla. “He has helped me with the mental side of the game and cleaning up the mechanics but it’s been more of the mental side of the game that has helped me a lot.”

Matt Francis, a senior at Horizon, has been hampered by injuries and claims he is learning something every training session after seeing

limited action a year ago.

“The most basic thing is completions and consistency,” said Francis.

“That’s what we come here every week to work on. That’s the biggest goal for me to take away from Sundays.

“Everyone here has a pretty good base to start with. For a quarterback there is a whole new world of biomechanics and footwork drills and everything to perfect your game.”

Cherry Creek wide receiver Marcus Miller says he absorbs what he observes from other athletes in the camp.

“You can see what they are doing and kind of incorporate it into your game,” said Miller. “You can pick up off everybody else.”

Jenkins, the former ThunderRidge and Fort Lewis quarterback who was on NFL and CFL rosters, never had the opportunity to incorporate what he needed and wanted to make sure young players understand the advantages and pitfalls of the different levels when he founded Jenkins Elite.

“I felt I got overlooked a little bit,” said Jenkins. “I didn’t know what I was supposed to know going from level to level. When I got let go with the Rams, I just decided this is prob-

ably the best way to correct a little bit of that.”

Student athlete Any description of a student athlete should probably include the name of Clara Larson.

Larson, the 2015 Colorado Community Media South Metro Softball Player of the Year from Douglas County, is an electrical engineering student at Colorado School of Mines and has made the dean’s list for the past two years.

She is a shortstop on the softball team and hit .425 during her sophomore season with a .839 slugging percentage, 15 home runs, 24 doubles and a single-season school record of 64 runs batted in.

Larson was a first-team all Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference selection, the team’s Most Valuable Player, and garnered three AllAmerican softball honors, plus the college sports information directors named her to the Academic AllAmerica team.

Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media. He has been covering sports in the Denver area since 1968. He can be reached at jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia. com or at 303-566-4083.

REZONING FROM PAGE 5

Sheldon and his team conducted a traffic analysis in April. The study found that the development would bring 52 new vehicles during peak morning hours and 68 during peak afternoon hours, he said.

“We understand that there is an ongoing concern over traffic in the area, but the issue is a regional one, not a site specific one,” Sheldon said at the July 11 meeting. “We are not going to be helping those problems but we are not adding anything to it that would be noticeable to any driver on any given day.”

Members of HRCA’s Development Review Committee commended Sheldon and his team for reducing

the number of units by 20 percent.

They emphasized the importance of taking traffic at nearby intersections into consideration and asked that the homes complement surrounding neighborhoods.

“I don’t think townhomes are compatible to the uses around you,” committee member Woody Bryant said. “I think we are going to have a hard time as a group with townhomes.”

Sheldon’s rezoning request will go through a referral process to get feedback from affected agencies such as the school district, fire district and utilities district. Sheldon expects the rezoning request to go before the Douglas County Planning Commission in late august and before the board of commissioners in mid-September.

“We welcome comments that are good and bad,” Sheldon said, “because it is a collaborative process.”

Joe said the work teaches James a strong work ethic and responsibility.

“That’s where you make your lifelong friends,” Joe said.

James is doing what he loves — taking care of animals and carrying on a family tradition.

“It helps you learn more about the stuff you don’t know,” James said.

“You keep learning and you have fun.”

He grabs his two steers and one heifer, ties them up and begins a feeding and grooming routine that takes one hour for each of the cattle.

The process is down to a science.

He uses a blower to remove dead hair, dust and “dead bugs,” James said with a grin. Then he douses them with water from head to hoof, once a week also using shampoo, and combs them thoroughly.

For feed, he carefully measures a mixture of grain, supplements and vitamins. Some of the diet additives help with muscle development and others with hair health.

Cattle must make weight come fair time, so James and his family use a whiteboard to calculate how much his cattle should eat each day to reach a weight appropriate for their frame.

That sums up the early morning to-do list, but James’ chores are an allday affair. He checks in once an hour to feed and water the cattle. In the evenings he makes sure they get their
